Duplication of Bio test causes problems by JANET RUSNAK Before students enrolled in General Biology I had the opportunity to take their second examination of this semester it was discovered that the testhad been mysteriously distributed on campus. "The test itself did not get out," John Fletcher, Assistant Professor of Biology, reported.! "The thing that p leased me the most was that a good number of students realised what was going on and told me. This showed me that not all students condoned what was going on. " "My guess is that someone took a notebook that had been highlighted from previous semesters' tests and duplicated it wholesale." Fletcher feels that mass lecture format was a contributing factor in the cheating incident. Because of the large number of students (570) and the physical impossibility of returning such a large number of exams he always took the questions for the final from all of his other tests. Thus a conscientious student merely had to keep track of all the previous tests' questions in order to know what would be on the final. This time, however, Fletcher's testing strategy failed because some student was smart enough to compile an exact list of questions (67 out of 70) from previous semesters' highlighted notebooks. Fletcher further stated, "This is the first time that this has happened to me. I had been contacted before, sometimes in the middle of the night, by people who told me that the test had got out. Before thi? time it was only hearsay. I couldn't act until I had documented proof." When Fletcher discovered ths incident he was left with two alternatives. He could cancel the test, which he felt was the only fair thing to do, or he could simply play dumb and give the, test. Yet if he did this he would make it impossible for honest students and commuters to pass the exam. Fletcher chose the first alternative. He didn 't penalize the class but simply elected not to give that particular test. With a completely new test he felt that no one would be hurt. "From this point on all tests will be new," Fletcher related. "I'm afraid that once I was burned it will happen again." Fletcher stated that he could very easily rectify this situation by not giving comprehensive exams. Yet because his studnets aren't science majors he feels that it would be unfair to expect them to memorize the entire book for the final. Fletcher remarked, "The thing that pleased me the most was that a good number of students realized what was going on and told me. This showed me that not all students condoned what was going on." "On a whole we have a pretty good student body," he said: "Those who cheat are basically in a minority. I realize that it is human nature to look — especially if you know that it will only hurt you if you don't." Many students were disappointed in the way that Fletcher handled the situation. They felt that they were being penalized even though they knew nothing about the test. A female student remarked, "I was mad as hell because I didn't see the first test. The second test was harder because it emphasized the book too much. Those kids who saw the first test knew what to study because the questions that weren't on the first test were on the second." "It 's understandable that students would look at the test if they see it. Otherwise, they would have been unable to compete with the other students who had the answers. " Other students felt that Mr. Fletcher's attitude was very condenscending. It seemed to them that he refused to believe that they were ignorant of the incident. ,' dozen students came to him and apologized for what happened — even though.they never saw a copy of the test. "It' s understandable," Gallaher stated, "that students would look at the test if they saw it. Otherwise,, they would have been unable to compete with the other students who had the answers." "The sad thing was that they didn 't even cheat- smart. It was a multiple choice test and people were pulling 100 's . It was impossible. " "The sad thing was that they didn't even cheat smart," he reported. "It was a multiple choice test and people were pulling 100's. It was impossible." The final result of this incident is that Gallagher is now forced to type all of his own tests and run them off himself. He feels that this is hassle but that it is worth it in the long run to insure the welfare of honest students.

A similar situation occurred last year in Personnel Management. Someone . got a copy of an optional test and distributed it among many of the students. Mr. Francis Gallaher; Assistant Professor of Business, explained the situation, "the School of Business lacked sufficient secretarial help and I was forced to use student assistance to type out the exam. I don 't think the student willingly gave out the test but only that he was lax in security measures and it got out." "I simply cancelled the exam when I found out," Gallagher further related. "I acted as if the test never existed. If this were to happen again this,year I would do the same thing because I'm convinced that I was right." Gallagher was pleasantly surprised when at least two , (Photo by1Albert M. Sukov i . ' , . . < . • . ¦ . ¦ . , ¦ ¦ \ sjamnniRif^^ A donation of 50 cents is requested.

Approximately one hundred second graders from Bloomsburg Memorial School descended upon BSC . campus last Wednesday. The children came on a field trip to explore the campus and learn more about the college which is very much a part of their community. They visited differentaspects of the college which help it function as a small community in itself. The children were given a guided tour through campusby students in Curriculum and Instruction classes for early childhood, special, and elementary education majors. The children walked up from the school and were met at Carver Hall. The tour began at Nelson Fieldhouse and also included places like the Biology growth chamber and the weather station in Hartline, which probably haven't even been seen by the average BSC student. Their day began at 9:30 a.m. and included lunch in the commonsv At 1:30, after their busy and informative day, the children headed back down the hill to the Memorial School. Wax in my ears A collective view by TOBY LOYD This column is going to be a little different than my previous columns. Instead of giving you one indepth review of one album, I'm going to give you a number of concise reviews of a number of albums. "52nd St. " by Billy Joel — It took a few listens to get used to the sound of this album. It's an extention and broadening of the jazzyr pop sound that was so prevalent on this album's predecessor, "The Stranger". Now that I've gotten used to it, I find myself enjoying; the album more each time I hear it. It's full of good songs and fine performances by Billy and the members of his band, especially) drummer Liberty DeVito. The album doesn't contain a lot of rock and roll per se, but a few songs, particularly "Until the Night" (a tremendous song and for me the highlight of the album) definitely rock. COLLEGE RECORD BIN In honor of the College Store I'd like to present a survey of great records that never quite made it, or that are so old no one buys them any more. Don't let the cheap prices fool you, there's some real quality merchandise to be found here. 1. All albums by the Byrds — These are terrific and historical albums. The Byrds, in their eight year career, did more to shape the soundof contemporary rock music than perhaps any American band to date. They made lots of great music, and their albums are the most prized in my collection. 2. All albums by Roger McGuinn — One of the most innovative and enduringof rock musicians in the past 15 years, McGuinn was the leader of the Byrds from their inception in 1964 to their demise in 1972. He has since pursued a solo career and has recently been touring with original Byrd members Gene Clarke and Chris Hillman. 3. "Ian Hunter"'— Ex - leader of England's "Mb'tt the Hoople" rocks on his own with former David Bowie, Rolling Thunder Review lead guitarist Mick Ronson. 4. All albums by the Kinks — Barring the Rolling Stones, the Kinks are the only aurvivors of the early sixties "British Invasion", and they've battled their way to many victories oyer the years.

The donation of blood is a simple act, yet one which many people misunderstand or even fear. Many times, the reluctance is due to a lack of knowledge. Is it true, for example, that the average human body contains less than six pints of blood? Is it true that one pint of blood can be usedto aid only one other person? Consider other statements.* all blood is of the same type; you can donate blood as often as you wish; blood can be used only in transfusions.

In addition, the average body has 12 pints of blood, and only the reserve pint is taken. A donor may give blood once every eight weeks, and anyone between the ages of 17 and 66 is eligible to donate, providing they are in good health and weigh morethan 110 pounds, (17 year olds require a Red Cross Parental Consent Form.)

Highlight Parent 's Weekend Football, soccer teams victoridtis -by MIKE INCITTI FOOTBALL Running back Mike Morucci became the first rusher in the history of BSC football to gain 1000 yards and defensive back Chris Betterly extended his division leading interception total to six in leading the Huskies to a 14-7 victory over Kutztown at Redman Stadium Saturday. Despite the Bears first half dominance and the Huskies dismal total of 68 yards offensively, Kutztown managed only one score as the Bloomsburg defense arrested many Bear drives. Kutztown passed and ran to the BSC 13earlyin the game but an up-ending tackle produced a fumble which was recovered by Betterly. In the middle of the second quarter, the Bears punted to the Huskie 17. A sack forced BSC to punt and Kutztown had the ball at the Bloomsburg 38. Three plays later, the Bears faked a punt and blocking back Steve Wetterau raced 34 yards for the touchdown. Scott Anderson kicked the extra point to give Kutztown a 7-0 first half edge. The . Huskies first half thorn was turnovers; three interceptions thrown and two fumbles lost forestalled the BSC offense. SECOND HALF MOMENTUM PREVAILS Second half momentum which has been prevalent throughout much of the Huskies - season once again manifested itself in the form of fewer mistakes, ball control and a passing game which made even . offensive coach Joe DeMelfi smile. BSC took possession on their own ten yard line after a Kutztown punt. From here, quarterback Matt Figard (regular QB Rick Knisley was injured last week .against Cheyney) connected with flanker John Jola for 18 yards. On the next play, Figard hooked up with split end Ed Bugno on a playbook perfect post pattern covering 72 yards. One play later , Morucci bulled through the line and burst into the end zone from two yards out.Randy Hafer kicked the extra point and with 10:28 Proof return for senior pictures will be November 20 from 9:00 a.m. tO 5 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. In the Coffeehouse of the Kehr Union.

A 23 yard pass play from Figard to Bugno, plus the 15 tacked on for a personal foul penalty, brought the ball to the Bears 27. Four carries by Morucci gave BSC the ball on the Kutztown three with a first down. The eight-play, 65 yard drive was culminated as a three yard r touchdown plunge by Morucci put the Huskies out front to stay. Randy Hafer 's extra point, his 17th straight, made the score 14-7. Kutztown's final drive was stopped as* linebacker Doug Pfautz intercepted a Mark Verica pass and ran it back to midfield. BSC ran out the clock to gain their third conference victory against one loss. They are 6-3 overall. PUHL PRAISES TEAM Coach Puhl praised all of his players and coaches especially coaches DeMelfi and Frank Williams, defensive coordinator. "It's hard to get psyched up for every game but we've been doing it. We need the support of the fans though. They are verjf important to us, especially for away games". Coach Joe DeMelfi was happy with the offensive performance "except for the sacks in the second half , otherwise we looked pretty good". The Huskies totaled 255 yards on offense , 161 of them through the airways on Figard's eight completions. Bugno?s three catches were good for 100 yards. Morucci topped the 100 yard mark for the eighth time this season with 129 in 36 carries.
