SCC committee
approved to make
campus lighting safer
Keeping up with the promises of their campaign, SCC
Hackney
President
Jason
received the Senate's approval
for an ad hoc committee to deal
with campus lighting and safety
issues during the first SCC
meeting last Wednesday.
The ad hoc power that
allows an SCC president to form
such a committee with thc senate's approval has not been utilized within the last four years,
according to Hackney. The purpose of such a decision is to
ensure that additions can be
made to the committees when a
president feels that there is
something missing.
"In this case, I feel the lighting around campus is one ofthe
issues posing a challenge to
keep this campus safe,"
Hackney said.
Linda Koch, vice president
of student affairs suggested that
this committee meet with the
campus Safety Committee, citing it as a "great opportunity"
for the students to get more
involved with the evolution of
safety on campus, to which
Hackney agreed.
"I hope to get the utmost

cooperation with Sullivan Hall
and also the utmost effort and
time on behalf of the Senators
who beckoned to the call of
service for their constituents,"
Hackney said.
He also added that the names
of thc chairpersons and members of this committee will be
released at a later date.
Another safety issue that the
new administration mentioned
during the course of the evening
was the distribution of rape
whistles for women on campus.
"The rape whistles were
originally not on our administration's agenda for the year. While
campaigning last year Safe
Haven brought our attention to
rape whistles and women's safety," said Hackney.
Further discussion of the
idea for whistles is scheduled
for a meeting next Tuesday.
More information concerning
this issue can be located through
contact with the Wellness Center
in Wooldridge Hall.
Hackney also updated the
Senate about his pursuit of PUB
renovations including improvements to carpeting, the computer lab, SCC Office and more.

Career Services can help
more than students think
Brandy Rissmiller
Staff Reporter
A common misconception
concerning Career Services is
that it is only useful for seniors.
Located in Akeley 114, Career
Services aids all students,
regardless of graduation year.
Open at 8 a.m. every weekday, students have access to the
Career Library and website.
Information is available relating
majors to future careers and students can conduct searches for
internship and summer job listings.

Students can take advantage
ofindividual counseling, resume
and cover letter critiques and
mock interviews, among various
other opportunities. It is not
uncommon for students to
change their declared majors.
"After experiencing different
classes and meeting new people,
students tend to change their
minds. A survey by the National
Association of Colleges and
Employers reports that 60 percent of students change their
majors before graduation." said
Joan Welker. director of Career
Services.
Students, especially freshmen and sophomores, do not
always know what field they

would like to major in.
Career Services offers online
programs to guide students to
this important decision. In
FOCUS, an interactive career
planning program, a student
assesses their personal attributes
and the program searches its
career and occupational information database to help thc students identify occupations that
match their personal characteristics. Peer Career Facilitator
Autumn Riley said that right
now internship information and
searches arc thc most popular
request among students.
"Since school started I've
had three people searching for
internships," said Riley. Career
Services has five Peer Career
Facilitators. They provide career
information to students and refer
students to Welker. The Peers
also assist with resume and
cover letter critiques, among
other responsibilities. Joining
Riley as Peer Career Facilitators
are Katy Catherman. Jessica
Lavender, Danielle Olivieri and
Hannah Thompson.
New to the Career Services
Library are 'America's Top 101
Jobs for College Graduates',
'Gallery of Best Resumes', 'The
Internship Bible' and 'Cash for
Graduate School'. Students are
encouraged to browse the

library.
Career Services likes to
keep students updated on job
fairs in the area. Students can
receive more information concerning upcoming fairs by
accessing the Career Services
Website,
http://www.lhup.edu/career and
by selecting 'Off-Campus
Events'.
The 2006 edition of 'Job
Choices', a magazine published
annually, is available in the
Career Services Office. Three
different editions ofthe publication are available. Students can
stop by for their free copy, while
supplies last. Also available in
Career Services is thc 35th edition of 'Graduate School Guide'
for 2005. It is a comprehensive
guide to Doctoral. Master's and
Professional Degree Programs.
At the beginning of every
month students will receive the
Career Services Newsletter
through their Lock Haven email account. The newsletter
keeps students up-to-date with
thc office, upcoming events and
has helpful information such as
'How Not to choose a major or
career'.
Students are also encouraged
to stop in or schedule an
appointment with Joan Welker.

Easily visible in their bright
yellow hats, the legal observers
are on hand at many demonstrations to ensure that police or
protesters do not violate peoples' civil liberties. Due to the
volume of the antiwar protest,
the Guild mobilized its attorneys from all over the country
but recorded no police misconduct or violence throughout the
day.
Metropolitan Police Officer
Quintin Petersoh, of the department's Public Information
Office, said the both the antiwar
protest and IMF demonstrations
went smoothly. Peterson said
there were three arrests: two for
destruction of property and one
for disorderly conduct, all at
3:30 p.m. during the antiwar
protest along 10th Street.
He said, "The events were
peaceful for being such a large
population of demonstrators."

Jennifer Charney
Guest Writer
Ever since she was a little
girl, LHU student Alice
Rosenthal had dreamt ofbecoming a news anchor; particularly
for NBC. Lucky for her, fate
had the same plan in mind.
Her junior year in high
school she covered a nightly
news story when NBC producers were in the area. They met
with her and strongly encouraged her to apply for one oftheir
internship positions within thc
next few years.
This past summer she got a
broadcasting internship at thc
NBC Studios in New York City
for six weeks.
Her daily routine varied
from running scripts and doing
office work, to actually going on
location or sitting with editors
critiquing a particular piece.
"They really got all the
interns involved, and it was nice
to know they were genuinely
interested in our feedback" said
Rosenthal.
Being one of seven interns,
some coming from Ivy League
schools such as Harvard &
Stanford, you'd think that a student from Lock Haven would

feel a little intimidated, but not
Alice. "The competitiveness in
the office was unbelievable, but
between the interns it was barely there. It didn't really matter
since we were all on the same
level, no matter what school we
came from" she said.
Being the eager learner that
she is, Rosenthal didn't seem to
mind the 50-plus hour work
weeks or the two hour commute
every day into the city from her
New Jersey residence.
Through her internship she
gotto meet people such as Brian
Williams. Tom Brokaw, and
Campbell Brown.
Giving her a break from
some tedious paperwork, her
usual schedule changed from
the usual Monday through
Friday scene, to a Wednesday
through Sunday schedule.
"I didn't mind working on
the weekends because I was the
only intern there. Thc cast and
crew were much more relaxed
and I got a lot of one on one
attention, giving me a chance
for some major hands-on experience" said Rosenthal.
Even though one would
think of New York City as bright
lights, being an anchor isn't
always fun and games. Stress
and panic were just a few ofthe

emotions Rosenthal felt when
NBC would begin their coverage on major national or worldwide events.
"It was amazing to see the
final product and how everything comes together to make it
seem effortless, when maybe 20
minutes ago, there wasn't even a
story," she said.
Rosenthal got to see how
professionals handle the pressure and pick up a few pointers
on how to make it all look easy.
"I knew I wanted to do
broadcast journalism, and this
experience helped me narrow
down thc field, as well as make
my decision more permanent,"
said Rosenthal
Not many students from
such a small university get the
opportunity to work in a major
city, with such a prestigious
company. Rosenthal felt privileged and took the opportunity
to absorb information while taking in one of the best experiences of her college career.
"The most beneficial thing
was the first-hand observation
of the incredible amount of talent thc cast and crew had, and
by making me feel so involved
in the process made me more
comfortable in the field," said
Rosenthal.

Students try to expose parents to
alternate side of Lock Haven living
Dear Editor:
On Saturday, September 24,
2005 a student and community
protest over the actions of the
LHU Foundation with its
Evergreen Commons apartment
complex was held on campus.
It was very interesting to
watch thc actions of thc
Admissions Office and its tour
guides on that day. Tour guides
were instructed not to go near
Akeley Hall where thc protest
was held even though Akeley
Hall was on the tour guide list of
places to walk by and talk about.
Those few tours that came
near Akeley were subjected to
the almost indescribably, horrible fate ofhaving parents asked
if they wanted to have one more
piece of paper with facts about
LHU.
The facts simply told
prospective students the truth
about LHU and that apparently
was too much for the
Admissions Office to handle.
For goodness sake they might
have to really tell students that
we have parking problems,
overcrowded classrooms, long
lines at Bentley, outrageously
high prices at Evergreen
Commons, and lotteries to
decide who gets to stay on campus after 30 credits.
As a matter of fact, the students and myself toldany parent
and potential Student who was
approached to come to LHU
because it was a good experience, but to also understand that
everything was not Camelot.
We just wanted those students to come to LHU and not
be surprised by the truth when
they did come.
Some tour guides did 180
degree turns, walked over grassy
areas, and redirected their tour
groups away from us to avoid
our potentially lethal sheet of
paper.
We never once spoke negatively about LHU to parents. We
simply gave them the fact sheet
and encouraged them to come to
LHU, albeit better informed.
For the life of me 1 do not
understand why the truth is such

a terrible thing in the mind of
Stephen Lee, our Admissions
Director, that he would instruct
his tour guides to avoid it like
the plague.
And as long as we are talking about the truth, the protest
also wanted students to know
that over $200,000+ dollars is
being made each year at
Evergreen Commons and some,
if not a large chunk, of it is being
directed to building thc new
Alumni Center on campus.
Gee, as an alumnus of LHU,
I always thought that the Alumni
Center was being paid for by
appreciative contributions ofour
alumni. I guess Jerry Updegraff
has a new economic model that
puts some of that burden secretly on current students and community tax payers.
As a student 1 think you have
a right to know why you are
being overcharged to live in
Evergreen Commons by S600$ 1000 every year. Mr. Updegraff
says the LHU Foundation is a
non-profit organization that is
here to give students affordable
housing and scholarships.
Well here's a challenge Mr.
Updegraff. If you are interested
in those areas, charge your $500
a month rent and then deduct all
bond expenses to pay for
Evergreen Commons. Then take
the excess and rebate it back to
the students who paid it in the

form of scholarships.
You are then truly non-profit, truly interested in providing
affordable housing for students.
truly providing scholarships,
and.amazingly. neither you nor
the students are out any pocket
money.

On the other hand you want
the money to help build an
Alumni Center, well, maybe-just
maybe- students ought to know
that is your true intention.
This is also a challenge to all
you students. Why not start by
asking Mr. Updegraff and the
Foundation to tell you where the
from
money
Evergreen
Commons goes.
In fact, if Mr. Updegraff is
willing, 1 challenge him to a

debate about the actions of thc
foundation and its involvement
with Evergreen Commons.
Come on Jerry, if you are so
confident of the goodness ofthe
actions
at

let's
talk

about it publicly without thc
ability to spin thc actions.

First and foremost we want you as parents to understand that we

the facts so that you can make your decisions based on those

1- LHU is growing very rapidly with its enrollment. In the
2000 we had 4,000 students. In the year 2004 we had

nts. In the year 2008 we arc projected to have
6,000 students.
ities have not kept up with the growth.
2- Parking is scarce, class sizes are larger (currently 25 stuis the average class size), cafeteria lines arc longcr, and infrastructure has not kept up with increased enrollment, Faculty studies
estimate LHU would have to hire 29 more faculty members immediately to have the same faculty-student ratio as in the year 2000.
Fact 3-Offcampus housing has been drastically affected by enrollment'increases. Your son or daughter is only guaranteed to live on
campus for approximately the first year (30+ credits). After that a
lottery decides who stays on campus and who has to move offcampus. If you are forced offcampus your choices are limited,
Fact 4-The off-campus housing market is very tight and because of
the increasing demand it is becoming more expensive. The most
expensive housing option is thc Foundation built Evergreen

student or nearly $6,000 a year just to have a roof over your

students.
Fact 5-Evergreen Commons is managed by a private management
company, Allen and O'Hara. The university code ofconduct does
not apply there, alcohol is permitted, university police do not patrol
it, and drugs and alcohol have been an on-going concern there,

Fact6- The foundation had and still could opt to have the university manage the complex, but have decided it is cheaper to use private managers to run it, maintain it, and clean it. This means that
instead of having 7-8 full-time professionals with masters degrees
in Student Personnel work available for emergencies during the
evenings, most times you will find student staff and Lock Haven
city police in emergency situations because they have only 1
time residence manager for the complex,
Fact 7-You cannot see a lease to Evergreen Commons without first
paying $25 non-refundable application fee. We believe this is
absolutely unacceptable.
Fact 8- The foundation is making a profit of approximately
$250,000 a year on the complex. We believe this is money that students should not have to pay if the foundation is truly looking out
for the interests of students. This is particularly true when LHU
housing professionals told the foundation $409 per month was
absolute maximum students could afford before they built this complcx.

Last weekend I had begun

Monday 1 discovered my street

means the process of draining

The idiotic media coverage of
Rita
The coverage wasn't even
over before the simplistic,
small minded media analysis
began. Among the illogical
conclusions:
Evacuations for Rita were
handled more responsibly
Over and over I have heard
praise for thc fact that the
evacuations in Texas were
issued 72 hours ahead of time.
True, but 72 hours before
Katrina hit New Orleans, no
one even knew she was coming.
Similarly. Lake Charles, a
much smaller town, was held
as an example for having successfully evacuated 90% ofthe

and the reluctance ofpeople to
flee New Orleans last month.
UPDATE: Now they are
actually warning viewers about
the dangers of post traumatic
stress disorder. Not for actual
victims, but for viewers of the
news. It is called "Vicarious
Post Traumatic Stress."
Monday, September 26, 2005
Apparently I'm African
American and other media
inspired epiphanies.
In Mississippi, during and
after the storm, there was no
electricity and therefore no
media reporting what may or
may not be going on in New
Orleans.
At the time it was frustrating, because what reports were
filtering down by word of
mouth seemed confusing and
contradictory. Now, after three
weeks of watching the news
off and on, 1 miss those days of
innocence.
Back then, when people
talked about the response of
the government and the media
being influenced by race, I felt
pretty strongly that it wasn't
just race—it was more than
anything about class. People
with money have no sense of
what it is like to not have any:
how limiting it is and, frankly,
how it is possible to be working full time and still living in
poverty.

My perception has been
altered in recent days.
First by entering the crime
forum at nola.com where 1

collection of white men concerned about their Corvettes
being stolen by "those people".

Yes, because the storm
announced itself. But it also
dipped down to a category 3
and hit less populated areas.
It's curious that no one is
reporting much on the 10%
that weren't evacuated in
Texas.
Who are they? Why were
they unable to leave? We may
never know. Also, while many
reports are being filed on how
impossible it was to evacuate
large cities by car, no one is

assumed I was African
American and began hurling
insults at mc.
When I mentioned that I
had to borrow money to evacuate, they continued, telling me
that I was exactly the kind of
person they needed to get rid
of.
When I identified myself as
a school teacher, they told mc I
was what was wrong with the
public school system and that I
must have snorted my paycheck. The level of ignorance
displayed by these self-identified proper New Orleanians
sickened me. It made me not
want to go back.
Of course, they existed
before the storm—I just never

rate

encountered them directly, in
part because if we had met face
to face they would have realized I was white—and therefore, absurdly, withheld the
comments and ire they targeted
me online.
But online, they were able
to judge me based on just a few
facts: my neighborhood and
my income. The conclusions
they drew show just how unfamiliar they are with their city,
and the fact that it is possible
to work hard and still have an
empty bank account at the end
of the week.
But in many ways they are
no different than thc mainstream media--or perhaps they
are the product of it. If you
read The New York Times, you
will discover neighborhood
distinctions that don't actually
exist in the real New Orleans:
North Bywater. Riverside, etc.
only exist on the maps they
have drawn to illustrate the
points they want to make about
flooding and demographics.
The truth is that while race,
racism and poverty are widespread in the city, none of it is
so easily portrayed on a map.
In fact, the map of New York
City is far more distinct in the
lines drawn between rich and
poor, black and white.
But most appalling of all
was the news today in the
Times Picayune, which reports
that the widespread rape and
murder reported during and
after the flood was completely
fabricated—by frantic citizens,
rapid reporters and, I think,
particularly bloggers, some of
whom wrote as if they were
eyewitnesses to these crimes
even as they bloggcd away
from some safe haven.
Remember (he seven year
old girl who was discovered
with her throat slashed?
Fiction, apparently, as are most
of the other deaths reported at
the Supcrdomc and the convention center. The gangs of
thugs raping and terrorizing
children after the lights went
out-again, no confirmations at
all from anyone who was actually there.
In fact, thc homicide rate
during and after the hurricane
was exactly the same as it was
before, which is admittedly too
high, but still, the theory that
packing poor, mostly African
American people together
inspired rampant crime is a
myth that too many peopleincluding me, apparently—
were willing to buy.

Selflessness in the wake of distaster
The thing is that is doesn't

happened to New Orleans, nor
the fact that New Orleans is not
anywhere near Lock Haven,
but saying that New Orleans
should have to pay more taxes
to help rebuild their own city
and not receive help from thc
rest of the nation because it is
their own fault for what happened to them, is like telling a
blind man that he can't have a
seeing eye dog to help him get
out and around because it's his
own fault for being born blind.
Wc live in a society today
were most people seem to think
it's all about themselves and no
one else matters. Wc live in a
bubble, whereas only the people who are inside the bubble
with us matter, like our friends
and family.
But there is more than just
our friends and family inside
that bubble. What about our
brothers and sisters in Christ
that we should always try to
help out when they are in trouble? What about the homeless?
What about people who are less
fortunate than us? Our classmates, people we don't even
know, they are in there too.
The world is our bubble, and
we need to not only care about
the people we do know, but
also the people we don't know.
Jesus called us all to be disciples of Him. Jesus went
around healing the sick and
taking care of most people that
he had no idea who they were.

as Jesus did for our ancestors.

"Then Jesus told his disciples, 'Ifany want to become my

want to save their life will lose

Matthew 16: 21-27
While we are getting better
in our advances in technology,
even the most skilled meteorologist still cannot predict the
exact conditions of the weather
in the coming week: however,
most meteorologists can give
close estimates of what might
happen. We could predict how
strong Hurricane Katrina was
just by a simple category number, but no one could predict
how much damage Katrina
would do to an entire city.
New Orleans was a city that
was not prepared for what was
to come
from Hurricane
Katrina. When the damage had
been done, more than half the
city was underwater.
Now in order to help the
rebuilding process, we have to
pay more taxes to help out.
Seems reasonable to me
because frankly, I would like to
do as much as I can to help the

New Orleans just can't be done,

done.

of Lock Haven was hit by a
hurricane and we were in drastic need of recovery, wouldn't
we ask people we don't know
for help just like New Orleans
did? Without a doubt we
would. And to hear and see
people turn away from our
pleas for help, doesn't one think
that would hurt just a little bit?
If someone was hanging off
the side of cliff and was about
ready to fall, don't you think
this person would cry for help?
To this person it wouldn't matter who helped him or her; this
person just wants to be rescued.
What if another person
walked by. saw and heard the
victim's cries for help, turned to
the person who was about
ready to fall to his or her's
death and say "what's in it for
me?"
Now, how many of us
have honestly said that to
someone when asked for help?
I would say a great many of us
have, and it's a habit we need to
break.
God wants us to care and
think about others. We are
important yes. but when compared to a person who has
much less than we do, wouldn't
it make sense to reach out to
that person who has less than to
ask for more for ourselves?
Jesus may have died on the
cross to save us from death
from our sins on earth, but that
doesn't mean we can just gp
around doing whatever w$
want thinking we will be forgiven. Selfishness is something that we all have, but just
imagine how thc world would
be if we all acted selfish all the
time.
We must act in Christ like
ways as much as possible every

day of our lives. If we do, we
can begin to act upon our selfish ways and start to see things
in a new perspective. Perhaps
maybe we can begin to help
others we don't know and start
to grow our bubble to be able to
fit the world inside. Sometimes
it's hard, but with God at our
side anything is possible, and
we must always try to strive for
it.

Sara Dorsey, right, an LHU criminal justice student who spent the
summer working as an officer in Ocean City, Md., shakes the hand of Dr.
Tamson Six, criminal justice department chair.

Trading in textbooks and
pencils for a nightstick and
sidcarm. Sara Dorsey was one
of a few college interns from
across the country to work as a
fully-trained police officer over
thc summer.
Dorsey, a senior Lock Haven

was hired by the Ocean City.
Md. police department last May,
and she will remain an officer
there until she finishes her
internship in November.
Though some summer
interns working as officers in
Ocean City rode a bike and
patrolled the boardwalk. Dorsey
drove a police car around the
city at night, wore a .357 magnum handgun on her belt and
had the ability to arrest those
who willfully broke the law.
Dorsey first heard about the
internship in fall 2004 when
officers from the Ocean City
police department visited LHU
and the criminal justice class
she was taking, searching for
interested recruits to try out for
seasonal employment positions.

"I've always looked at working for a police department as a
career choice." Dorsey said.
"This was my opportunity to
start."
But applying for the internship was competitive, and
Dorsey was just one of a handful
of
students
from
Pennsylvania, and one of 105
total, selected to go to a police
academy for training to become
an Ocean City officer.
"It was a condensed academy and they packed in a lot in a
short period of time," Dorsey
said.
As part of her training.
Dorsey learned how to use a
noise meter, a device that determines if the audible level of a
social gathering is disturbing the
peace. "It's a big deal there," she
said, noting that renters can be
ousted in cases of violation.
Other training included firearm
use, policing on a bicycle and
evasive driving, she said.
After finishing the academy
in mid-June, Dorsey dove into
police work, pulling a 10 p.m. to
8 a.m. shift driving the streets of
the city at night.
"I had a full range of experience," she said.
At night, the tourist town
hosted a number of parties.

Dorsey recalled breaking up one
underage drinking gathering.
"It was called the 'anything
goes but clothes' party," she
said.
A number of underage
drinkers wore a variety ofitems
as clothing, she said.
"One person had an outfit
made entire of Ramen noodle
packets," she said. "The packets
were still full of thc noodles."
Less comical were the number ofassaults she saw.
"In order for something to be
considered a domestic assault
where we can make an arrest,
there are some requirements,"
Dorsey said. "The assault must
have occurred within 24 hours
of the call, there must be visible
signs of injury and the individuals must reside together."
There were a number of
assaults where arrests could not
be made because they did not
meet the requirements, she said.
On other calls, Dorsey felt it
necessary to draw her gun.
"There was an abandoned
hotel, and we had to clear the
building once a week," she said.
"That was one situation where I
had my weapon drawn."
It also was mandatory to
wear a bullet-proof vest at all
times, she said.

LOCK HAVEN. Pa.
Sophomore midfielder Blair L.
Wynne (Arima, Trinidad &
Tobago/Sangre Grande) has
been named LHU Bookstore
Athlete of the Week for her
efforts in the week ending
Sept. 25. This is the first honor
for both Wynne and the field
hockey team.
Wynne had a break out

Since then, each year has gotwhich couldn't make
field hockey coach Pat Rudy and
softball coach Kelley Green any
happier.
Rudy calls Hughes an impact
player and one ofher most experienced players on the field. It is her
fourth year starting for Rudy, who
says Hughes is very valuable to
the team's success. Along with
being a NFHCA Second Team
All-American, she was also a First
Team All PSAC selection in 2003,
while she was named to thc second team during her freshman season.
"She changes the whole
dynamics and other teams have to
adjust to her," said Rudy. "She's a

native Courtney Hughes stands
above the competition on the playing field. The difference with
Hughes is that she does it in two
sports, field hockey and softball.
She stands out on the field, the
diamond, and in the classroom.
Hughes, a senior at Lock

Haven University, is a member of
both the field hockey and softball
teams as well a Pennsylvania State
Athletic Conference (PSAC)
scholar athlete. She has been a
huge part ofthc equation that has
helped both teams enjoy recent
runs of success.

field hockey team continue

\ play, she has anchored the ■

Hughes helped the
Eagles enjoy a dominant first

Team All-PSAC West and named
to the National Fastpitch Coaches
Association (NFCA) All-Mid
Atlantic Region First Team.
Also a captain for the softball
team, voted on by the players.
Hughes is a "dynamic player who
can do it all and is a leader on and
off the field" according to Green,
who feels Hughes is the top shortstop in Division II. Green credits
her confidence and ability to be
vocal as her biggest strengths.
"She is very vocal on and off
the field." said Green. "She motivates people around her with her
competitiveness."
Hughes currently holds the
school's career home run record at
15 with another season still to
come. Going into her senior season, she has 28 doubles. 114

LHU Campus: Diversified
Nelson O. Diaz

Guest Writer
Lock Haven students are
faced with the dilemma ofLock
Haven being "diverse", whether
they realize it or not. When the
issue is microscopically looked
at one can get down and dirty
and identify the differences that
exist within the Lock Haven
University community.
Lock Haven University is a
university that prides itself upon
the fact that there are 100 plus
clubs and organizations on campus, which adhere and coincide
with the notion of the diversity
within LHU. In knowing that
over a 100 clubs exist within
LHU there should be no doubt to
how diverse LHU is, unfortunately there still are those whom
question and even insist upon
LHU not being diverse.
Diversity, as defined by thc
Men-jam-Webster Dictionary, is
the condition ofbeing composed
of distinct forms or qualities.
Call this reporter crazy, but

the fact that there exists a common ground where clubs like the
Asian Student Association
(ASA), the Black Student Union
(BSU). Gay Straight Alliance
Latino
Student
(GSA),
Association (LSA), the Sport
related clubs, the majors related
clubs, and the' Inter-Fraternity
Council Association can get
together for the better of an
establishment in hopes to educate, promote, and beset role
models to the community, shows
the exasperated condition of
diversity here on campus.
Diversity for LHU does not
end there. Instead, it continues
with the growing number of students entering the university.
"It's great to see the diverse
population increase because that
opens many doors for the whole
campus," said Adonis Roman, a
sophomore majoring in Sport
Just recently sources in the
Admissions office have revealed
that the number of minorities
have jumped increasingly from
what was a 7-8 percent minority

population to a 10 percent
minority population here on
campus.
Programs in LHU such as
Study Abroad have internationally diversified this university
sending, as well as accepting,
students from all facets of the
world. Students are able to
study in countries such as
France,
Italy,
England,
Germany, Japan, China, Brazil,
Mexico, and Australia to name a
few.
If the question of whether
LHU is in need of diversity or
even a question of LHU being
diverse, one knows the answer.
Whether one wants to join a fraternity and/or sorority, a club of
Latino, Asian, and/or African
Association, a club of Religious
and/or Sexual Association, or
even clubs relating to sports and
majors one does not need to look
any further because Lock Haven
University has it all.

wish to add another item to the
list. If drugs, sex. over 40 years
of rock and roll, Mick Jagger,
and Keith Richards can't kill the
Rolling Stones, I think it is quite
possible that they'll outlive the
world as well.
Moreover, all those things
have not been able to kill the
music of thc Rolling Stones;
years after we all expected to
hear nothing from the Stones
other than them sweating to the
oldies, the new Rolling Stones
album, A Bigger Bang, is as raw.

best thing you could do for your

really goes above and beyond

lead to alcohol dependency.
The final step would be to
act. The best way to do this is a
controlled environment where
she is forced to sit and reflect on

bluesy riff-making that we have
come to expect from the Rolling
Stones. Songs such as the single
"Rough Justice" and "She Saw
Me Coming", among many others, rock with the gleeful abandon that they haven't showcased
in years. Even when they move
to ballads, such as "Let Me
Down Slow", the Stones bring a
verve to it that you don't normally expect from senior citi-

The key to the Rolling

ofhow this is related to you. If
it is her schooling, job, or otherwise, it is likely to be a shortlived issue, however, if all roads
lead to the relationship, it istime
to cut short the relationship for
her own good, if nothing else.
The most frequent cause of
alcoholism is stress, so like I've
said; find out from those close
to her what has given her the
most stress. It will likely be a
long and strenuous process to
help her recover from this state
but if it doesn't happen you
won't be having a relationship
with the same person at ail but
the shadow of a girl friend that
you previously knew.
Just to give you a play-byplay game plan on how to help,
your best bet is to first start with
research. Go online and search
through websites outlining the
most frequent variables associated with dependency and what
can be done. Usually this will
involve an intervention by
friends or even a revamping of
her lifestyle, such as quitting a
job. dropping classes or otherwise, it will rarely mean extended time in a recovery center as
long as you intervene soon.
The next step would be to
talk to her friends about it.
Females, more so than males,
tend to use their friends as their
closest confidences and are thus

LHU on Monday.

Goldie Hawn hit the big
screen
at
Lock
Haven
University on Monday night.
Hawn, a well acclaimed
actress, came to the university
via satellite from William
Paterson University of New
Jersey. Over a hundred other
schools were listening to this
satellite, including a school in
Canada.
Hawn spoke of her life's
path to success, and how students could reach success on
their own. Earlier in her life, she
never knew where she was
going to be. All she knew was
that she loved being a dancer.
She grew up in an average family in Washington D.C.
"I did not grow up with a
sliver spoon in my mouth," said
Hawn.
Hawn was never very good
at academics and her own moth-

er taught her how to read. She
knew that she was not perfect
but learned the lesson in life that
it is okay to not be perfect
because no one is. She spoke
about people being afraid of
failure and how it holds people
back from their joy in life.
At only 17, Hawn owned her
very own dancing school and
taught there. She then decided to
move to New York City to
dance. Her advice is to always
be prepared for anything.
"A person can't go wrong if
they are prepared," said Hawn.
She never dreamed of being
anything more than a dancer
because she was a realist.
Hawn did not make it onto
Broadway but she did not give
up and run back home to D.C.
Instead, she hung in there and
became a Go-Go dancer. She
than landed a role on the Andy
Griffith Show as a dancer. She

Hawn said, "It is not the
question, what am 1 going to be
when I grow up; you should ask
the question, who am I going to
be when I grow up."
When it came time for questions over the phone or emails
for Hawn, the first school's
question came from our very

In L.A. she had more auditions and was soon signed by the
