Adherence To Policies
hagle hye is in no way dispuiing the decision of Francis
J. Cornelius, LHS dean of men, concerning the dismissal of
three male dormitory counselors last month.
We find no real fault with the decision because consuming
alcoholic beverages on state property is against the law and
because of their positions as dormitory counselors. If this rule
has been used against these three it should be used on an equally firm basis in the future.
The question at hand is not the policy of the Dean, butrather the lack of policy- This applies not only to his firing practices but a l s o to his hiring practices.
In reviewing the qualifications Dean Cornelius has e s t a blished for counseling positions. Eagle Eye feels that his
qualifications are valid - if they are adhered to. Although rules
should be flexible enough to allow some exceptions, they are
for the purpose of being used as s t a n d a r d s .
There is no question that the position of counselor is
held in some esteem. This very esteem places an obligation
on all counselors. It is difficult for a counselor to reprimand
or chide any student if he has been guilty of the same conduct.
Just as students have the right to expect equal standards
from their counselors, so the counselors should expect equal
application of rules and regulations from the Dean.
In the c a s e s in question, it appears that the exceptions
are far more numerous than they should b e .
Consider for instance the c a s e s involving the hiring of
residents at North Hall and High Hall. Eagle Eye has nothing
personally to say against any of these s t u d e n t s . However, it
does appear that at least some of these students are victims
of unfortunate happenstance.
It would appear that one who was to servo as a head resident should logically be familiar with both the problemsof LHS
students in general and those more specific problems encountered by c o u n s e l o r s . Supervision is a lot e a s i e r if one knows
what one is supervising. As in any other position, the least
qualified people should earn the position and this earning
should not depend on fickle circumstance - such as being
Greek, being an athlete, being a friend of the Dean - or being
anything else except just plain qualified for the job.
As it stands ni5w the hiring and firing policies for many
student jobs on campus are open to question. Especially in
a time when cutbacks in employment are occurring, it would
seem reasonable to expect a more standard approach to the
entire area of student employment.
At the present time it appears that the most flagrant abuses are those in the Dean of Men's office. This is unfortunate because the very s u c c e s s or failure of student personnel
rests on the rapport established between and among all facets
of the c o l l e g e .

M o o n Eclipsed
Those of you who waited up Wednesday night for the total eclipse
of the moon were badly disappointe d . The total eclipse of the moon
took place on Wednesday morning.
Visibility was relatively good for
the LHS s k i e s with a slight haze
barely dimming the moon. The
umbral stage of the eclipse began
at about 12:52a.m. at which time
a slight dark haze could be noted
on one corner of the moon. This
haze gradually covered the moon
until at 2:03 a.m. the entire moon
was covered by Earth's shadow.
At this time the moon appeared as
a rust colored ball with a very dark
central part in the shadow, and the
outer edge of the umbra relatively
bright. The moon passed totality
at 3;26a.m. and once again began
lo brighten lo a lull moon.

way connected with these men's
ability to counsel Lock Haven

unfortunately, Podgajny, Gadson and DeFrancesco are being

examples to other counse lor.s
to "watch their s t e p s " . We feel
that the counseling staff has
lost three of its most valuable

To the Editor:
I think a few things ought
to be brought out in the open
about this recent controversy
over Dean Cornelius' polices.
A lot of critisim has been directed toward the Dean which is
really biased and uncalled for.
The three counselors that were
dismissed knew they were breaking the rules and should realize
they must suffer for their mistake. Also I knew for certain
that one of the counselors, Garey
Gadson, was never even in the
building several times when he
was to have been en duty. And
to make matters more unfavorable he did not even consult
another counselor to take over.
Garey would just take off and
go. As for the other two counselors I have no idea if they Attention C l a s s of '72:

"An ironic aspect of Black
popular movements is the way
in which white ideas act as
c a l a l y s t s of nationalists feelings."
The political history of
Africans in America is characterized by two predominating
themes: attempts to oppress
them and their determination
to r e s i s t and free themselves.
They have believed freedom to
mean different things at different times and in different
p l a c e s . They thought it was
emancipation from being a
slave; or sit-ins for equal use
of public services and facilities;
or a crusading bus ride through
the South for social integration;
or voter's registration s o Black
people could vote for the white
politicians who were controlling
the government.
All of these thoughts about
freedom were basic to the a s sumptions we accepted about the
nature of American society
which were, in fact, derived
from white America's description
of itself. But being a flexible
people and not one to hangon
to false goals, each time we
arrived at a stage and saw that
freedom was not there, the
movement pushed onward.
