Students approve calendar diange
By Linda Dicks
" I t ' l l give us more time
to relapse or relax, whichever
way you want to look at i t . "
"With the energy c r i s i s ,
i t ' s great for the students who
live outside P e n n s y l v a n i a . "
" T h e p r e s s u r e ' s really
on, but the Christnia s spirit
carries you a l o n g . "
This is the first year that
Lock Haven State students
have had finals scheduled
before Christmas. T h e general
consensus is one of praise
and approval. Many students

feel they'll be able to really
enjoy
Christmas
without
worrying about finals, term
papers, and all the other
" g r u e s o m e " things that come
in the package labeled ' F i n a l s
Week.'
Some students are cor»templating making extra money
through part time j o b s . Others
are planning trips to the
favorite college spots , like
Florida or even skiing.
Whatever the p l a n s , the
calendar change was obviously a move which meets with
student atproval completely.

T'was the night betore finals

With visions ol tHissing lit their heads
With Mrs Shiuvo III her kerchief

T'was tlw ni^ht hcinrv tnuils
And all throuah the danii.
All the people were nishnii;
T'was the nud-wiiiter ••slorni"
Clothes were all thrown on the lloor without cure
Pants, shoes, shirts mul underwear
Not a soul was nestled nor snui;i^' in their bed,
They all were up study OIL; with their eyes luninn; red
The Security (iuurd roamed all o\-er ihi' jdain
But not a soul did he see ou the Lock Uuveu dom.iui
Up in the dorm, there wasn't a clatter.
And noiiody cared to see what was the matter.
Not a sound was heard - not even a peep
If someone stiee/.ed, people cried, "(Jnie! yiui cr eep'"
The weather outside wasn't fit for a dummy
But indoors lo survive, your wnijifwd like a mummy
From sludyiiii^ loo hard, there's soon to appear,
Some red und blue spots that won't dissppear.
' To attempt and stay up, you have to be slick,
'Cause if you shut your eyes, you'd full
asleep-quick'
The more books you put down, the amount seems the same
You begin whistling and shouting and calling them bv name
Here's Bio, here's Mat he, here's History and Chem
The problem now is how to get through Ihem.
To the top of the building you feel like dashing.
Throw all the books off and stand ihere laughing.
Your sanity's gone - it's a madhouse you see
You wonder if this is a pur t of reality
You're studying loo hard und need a drink
Something for inspiration to help you think
The books are killing you - you know your defeat
You should give up but it's too lute for retreat
One more course to go- ihui 's all y.'u keep moaning
But there seems to be more--start groaning
tt's 6:00 A.M. and you're almost through
One more page is left to do.
You're so glad, you jump for foy,
'Cause by now the books you were going to destroy.
You've finally finished and you crawl into bed.
Fluff up the pillow and luy down your head.
The alarm will ring but you won't care,
You've made it to bed and you plan to stay there.

Your work is done, the effor t was made

On this alone you should get an 'A' grade.

Politics produced current fuel shortage
According to Mobile Oil
Col, political and environmental decisions produced the
current shortage of gasoline.
This opinion was expressed
in an open letter (advertisement) addressed to Members
of Congress which was published in the Washington Posl.

part of a nation wide p r e s s

Administrator of the I'jivir onmental Protection Agcncv,
John Quarlcs, pointedly spoke
about reluctance to face the
problem honestly. He s a \ s
that Mobil set out facts but
not all of them. Sometimes,
in his opinion, the omitted
facts are the most important
ones.
Some of the points brought
up by Mr. Quar les were:

Success replaced by desire
for rich hutnan e xperience

by Donna Leggett
The American idea of
s u c c e s s is changing, according to a report r ecently
published by American Management
Associations.
The
report concludes that
the
success
idea of
material
well-being has heen replaced
with a desire for the richness
of human experience and the
rewards of self-expression.
The report is based on
a survev of 2,821 American
businessmen. It notes that
traditional notions of success
are declining and for more
and more people, s u c c e s s is
a way of life and not just a
goal.
Highlights of the report
include;
, NearK' three out of every
four businessmen
surveyed
agreed that youth's disenchantment is greatly overblown
by
educators
and
others,
, Respondents with a high
school education reported the
highest levels of personal
and professional satisfaction,
, Educational backround and
training appears to be an
important factor in the determination of personal goals
and aspirations.
The disenchantment
of
educated youths is attributed

to iheir intellectual rejection
of traditional values,
. Respondents holding advanced degrees were more
inclined to helieve that they
were frequently or occasionally expected to compromise
their principles to conform
to organizational slaiidards,
, Respondents who did not
complete high school were
the most dissatisfied with
respect to career advancement
and the sense of persona!
fulliUment, Fhe next most
dissatisfied group was composed
of
businessmen
currently pursuing post-graduate studies.
|-"ew
businessmen
siirvayed with greater material reward and/or job or
career advancement. In fact,
more than a third of those
survaved said that s u c c e s s
represents the realization of
goals and aspirations which
have little or nothing ' " do
with
career
advancement.
Nearly half of the respondents
define s u c c e s s as greater
job satisfaction and more
meaningful work.
College
students
are
turning away from the rewards
of a career, such a s money
and s t a t u s , and turning toward its s a t i s f a c t i o n s . The

report also reveals that young
people today are interested
in aciivities that
satisfy
oneself rather than in activities that promise recognition from society.
According to the report,
people
have
worked
for
Qrganizationa for ttxi long;
it's time for organizations to
go to w(irk for the people. In
response to rapidly changing
values,
organizations
are
going to have to move away
from the rig'dity of methods
and structure and d e v e l o p an
atmosphere
that
is
more
natural and spontaneous.
