NO WPres. highlights CAS conference by JIM PEFFLEY Hoping to "explode the stereotype of student apathy," Bridget Whitley, president of Pennsylvania NOW (National Organization of Women ) , spoke to students Saturday on the topics of divorce reform, reproductive rights and the draft registration. • Whitley was the keynote speaker at this weekend's conference of statewide CAS (Commonwealth Association of Students ) representatives. The conference included forums with U.S. Senate candidates Warren Williams and Norman Bertasavage, workshops, and a CAS policy setting session. COMMITMENTS FOR LIFE •Appealing to the "younger people who have the drive and strength," Whitley discussed NOW's views of divorce reform. Presently, according to Whitley, divorce laws in Pennsylvania are "the worst in the nation." There is little alimony legislation and no provisions for distribution of marital property. "In today 's marriage, one member must be seen as the victim and must be innocent." Whitley theorized that breakdowns in marriages are in actuality a chain of contributing factors. To aid NOW's cause for reform legislation, Whitley related several areas being worked upon: expansion of public relations and awareness, the need for aggressive financing and NOW's involvement in electoral politics. Currently, the group has political action committees and participates in national conventions, selecting delegates, demonstrating and lobbying. NOT JUST ABORTION Whitley explained NOW 's views on reproductive rights in continued on page seven) New Academic Policies explained Recently the Coordinating Committee on Academic Affairs and the Representative Assembly approved three new policies dealing with course repeats, pass-fail courses, and course withdrawals respectively . The policies are described below. Each of the policies is to become effective at the beginning of the Fall Semester of the 1980 - 81 academic year and will be included in the official BSC Bulletin for next year. PASS-FAIL POLICY After attaining sophomore standing, a degree student may elect courses on a pass - fail basis until the final day of registration in accordance with the following rules : A maximum of two courses (not more than seven semester hours in total ) may be included as part of the minimum graduation requirement of 128 semester hours. No more than one pass-fail course may be taken in any one semester. The courses must be electives in disciplines beyond the requirements of the student's specialization. Specialization includes a major and any course required in conjunction with the major . Suitable courses outside the specialization taken on pass fail basis may be applied to the general education requirements. The instructor is not informed that the course is being taken on a pa^s - fail basis ; grades of A, B, C, D, orE are translated later into grades of P or F, with the grade of P recorded for a grade of D or higher and the grade of F recorded for E. Dean Wolfe resigns: relocates in Washington Dr. Richard O. Wolfe has resigned from his position as Dean of the School of Extended Programs at BSC effective May 30, and will become Associate Dean for Doctoral Studies and Professor of Education at Gonzaga University, Spokane, Washington beginning June 15, 1980. Wofe 's duties will include directing a new doctoral program in educational leadership which will be implemented at Gonzaga this summer. Thirty-eight students have been admitted to the program and will start their studies in early July. Wolfe first became acquainted with Gonzaga during the 1972-73 school year, when he served as a visiting professor to that institution while on leave from Bloomsburg. "As an alumnus and administrator, I've enjoyed my association with the Bloomsburg College community immensely, " Wolfe stated. "However, my new position will afford me the opportunity to be creative in directing the new program and also to do some teaching, research and writing that I just didn 't have the time to do in recent years. I'm looking forward to the exciting challenge. " Wolfe joined the faculty at BSC in 1967 as an assistant professor of education and was promoted to the r ank of associate and full professor in 1970 and 1972 respectively. He served as Dean of Continuing (continued on page eight) The grades P and F do not enter the computation of or quality point average, If , subsequent to completion of a course on a pass-fail basis, the student should change his her major to one in which the instructor's original grade is required , he - she may request that the chairperson of the academic department be notified of the actual letter grade earned. A student who has received a grade of E in a course may not take it later on a pass - fail basis. The student may not revoke a decision to take a course on a pass-fail basis. NOTE : This policy is effective 1980 - 81 academic year for all entering and transfer students. Other students may choose to abide by these regulations or the pass fail regulations that prevailed at the time of their entrance into college (i.e., four instead of two pass - fail opportunities.)

Sukowaskl) Thornburg h reques ts BSC budget An allocation of $15,092,000 from the Commonwealth and a total operating budget of $26,520,000 are projected for BSC in the 1980-81 budget request submitted by Governor Dick Thornburgh. Local receipts from student fees federa l funds and other sources are estimated at $11,428,000. The governor also requested the legislature to approve a Capital Budget that would include a $0,406,000 Human Services Center, and $3,850,000 for five other renovation projects for BSC. Capital Budget projects are financed through long-term bonds issued by the Commonwealth. The governor has requested a total appropriation for the operating budgets of the stateowned colleges and university of $206,457,000, an increase of $11,692,000, or six percent, over the 1979-80 appropriation . Income from student fees and non-Commonwealth sources was estimated at $151,427,000, an increase of $13,864,000, or 10.07 percent, over the current year. It is expected that the basic fee for students at all 14 institutions will be increased by (continued on page eight) This is the time of year for those students who are anticipating graduation in May to think about applying for Graduate School and for Graduate Assistantships. Since the hearing impaired program , the speech-language pathology program and the audiology program admit students this summer you will want to be sure to consider these programs and to advance application for admission and for an assistantship. Please be informed that assistantships are only granted for the Fall or spring semesters. Both applications are available from the Office of Graduate Studies. Applications for admission are returned to the Office of Gradute Studies. Applications for Graduate Assistantships are returned to the Office of the Department Chairperson. You will also want to write a letter to your curriculum coordinator expressing your intentions of applying. The curriculum coordinator in the Audiology program is Mr. Miller, the curriculum coordinator in the speech-language pathology area is Mr. Champoux , and the curriculum coordinator for the education of the hearing impaired area is Mr. Slike. Please feel free to stop by and discuss these matters further. Editorial Whatever happened to energy? Once upon a time , students fought tooth and nail for privileges , activities and events. Although the struggle seemed long and hard, improvements were made and students were given more. Gasoline used to be plentiful also. Suddenly, prices soared and resources of energy dwindled. How coincidental, that with the loss of energy came a loss of student energy. Take , for instance, the upcoming Mock Convention. For several years, it has been one of the most eagerly-awaited events on campus. Once, every four years , students would flock to Centennial Gym for the event. This year's convention is coming soon and it seems no one is interested; the delegation is coming soon and it seems no one is interested; the delegations formed are few in number. But surely students Would attend something ! This weekend,for instance, CAS held a state wide conference and ran workshops on various student- related top ics. Although BSC was host and should have had a large student turnout , the only one's who attended were CAS members. But what about clubs and organizations? Wrong again. Memberships and involvement in organizations have dropped steadily and no one seems to have the energy to attend meetings. Well , at least we have spring break this week. Hopefully students will reserve some of the energy they plan to use over break and return in March able and willing to help the college out. Who knows , the students lack of energy may turn out to be a hoax ! Movie review Bo's a "10" by DICK DILIBERTO A. rich producer finds -a beautiful girl, decides America needs a new sex symbol, builds her up as a perfect "10" and makes a movie. This is ap-. parently how "10" came about. Bo Derek , who plays the perfect female, is at the least gorgeous. But , one beautiful girl does not make an entire movie.

By CHARLES WARNER Americans seem to want to come to the aid of Afghanistan 's people, supposedly because the Afghanistan!'s are having their rights infringed upon by the Russians. A curious situation , considering the American Government has been accused of supplying and supporting the regime of a possible bloody empire, that of the Shah of Iran. Some have accused the United States of having great financial investment in the Shah' s regime. The people of Iran cried out for help, but supposedly, this country remained silent as the profits rolled in. After a time, the people of Iran rose up and toppled the empire. The Shah left the country, and upon proving that he needed medical attention , was granted political asylum in the United States. The people of Iran were appalled and pleaded with the United States to return their deposed Shah. The United States government replied that they had no right to do so as it was their duty to grant asylum to those who needed it. In the past , • it has been the policy of the United States to grant asylum to those who needed it. These people were most always heavily screened Black woman survives sexism and racism by LINDA NATTER This article is one in a series of articles featur ing famous black women. The Affirmative Action ' - Desegregation Office has picked this special group to report on because not only are these women discriminated against because of color , but they are also in the minority with regards to their sex. As a result of this, very little is known about the black woman who has achieved against the odds of race and sex barriers . Who is Patricia Roberts Harris? In her own words, she says, "I'm a black woman , daughter of a dining-car waiter...(If) my life has any meaning at all , it is that those who start out as outcasts may end up being part of the system. I assure you that while there may be others who forget what it meant to be excluded from the dining room of this very building, I shall never forget ( Fortune , November 6, 1978). " Patricia Harris , born in 1924 in Matton , Illinois , has been the Secretary of Health , Education , and Welfare (HEW ) , the government's biggest department , since Septpmber 1979. Prior to this placem en t , Harris held the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD ) . She feels both HUD and HEW have the same type of clientele: the poor, the;Qlder,ly,,th e sic; and , the handicapped. Upon joining HUD on January 23, 1977, Harris was the first black woman to serve in that capacity . Harris has come a long way by being assertive and standing up for what she believes in. Those who know her might use adjectives such as strongwilled , tough , out spoken and a real fighter. Harris graduated first in her class at George Washington University Law School . She taught at Howard University Law School , became a partner in a well-known Washington law firm , held impressive directorships with Chase Manhatten , I.B.M., and Scott Paper , worked in Lyndon Johnson 's presidential campaign and became U.S. Ambassador to Luxembourg during his term. Harris is also recognized as the first black woman to be appointed as a U.S. ambassador . True to her word , Harris will never forget "what it meant to . (continued on page four) and not all of them got into the country. Could the fact that the Shah had much money and still much political clout have much to do 'with his entry? Did his regime have any support , or return support to the United States, and if so did that have anything to do with his entry? Following World War II, it is doubtful that the United States would have granted asylum to Herman Goring or Adolf Hitler no matter how ill they were. Goring was executed and this country lost no sleep over that. People say that the Nazis killed Americans Vand . that someone . .ha.d to . .be held.- accountable. Is-an American life any more important than the life of another man? Is the life of a Christian more important than that of a Moslem? The Shah's regime has been accused of numerous tortures , murders, and other hideous crimes. By allowing the Shah asylum , the Americans seem to cast approval toward him. The Iranians asked for help and this country arid president Ss^med to turn a deaf ear. Americans were taken hostage in a desperate attempt to cause the United States to open their eyes and act. The President and the government , instead of examining the Iranian point of view simply stated that "We don't bargain with kidnappers ". The President had his people do their best to get the Shah out of this country, thinking, rather naively, that the hostages would be released upon the Shah's departure. Each side has a point. Each side presents its story in the news, and if one is able to examine the United States point of view and the Iranian point of view , then sort out the facts from the manure of propaganda presented by both sides , ( continued on page four) Award cites service Nomination forms for the Undergrad uate Service Certificate are available at the information desk in the Kehr Union.

Coalition urges passage of university bill Representatives from Pennsylvania 's state colleges and Indiana Univer sity called recently for the swift passage of legislation needed to grant university status to the 13 state colleges and create a system of higher education independent of the Departm ent of Education. Members of the Pennsylvania State College and University 'Coalition announced their "overwhelming support"of Senate Bill 542 and House Bill 1995.' (PSCU) Coalition , representing students, faculty, presidents, trustees and alumni of the state - owned institutions , announced their "overwhelming support" of Senate Bill 542 and House Bill 1995 during a news conference held in the Caoitol Rotunda . "Indeed, it is the brightest , if not the only hope for the future of public higher education in Pennsylvania ," said Joseph Archut , legislative director for the Commonwealth Association of Students (CAS) , the student lobby for the 14 campuses. Archut said the creation of a statewide university system independent of the Department of Education will "cut down on costly overregulation of the colleges by state agencies" since "the schools have often found themselves strangled by bureaucratic red tape in attempting to meet the needs of a more sophisticated educational society." SENIOR At the same time, members of the coalition said the establishment of the state-owned university system will be a "significant inducement for students to stay home and add to the development and growth of our Commonwealth." If the Senate and House approve this legislation within the next few weeks , the state colleges will have university status beginning this July. "Today we are calling for the immediate passage of the bills," Archut said, "any delay will promote the further decay of the public higher educational system in Pennsylvania ." A new public education program to increase seat belt usage in Pennsylvania was announced recently by State Transportation Secretary Thomas D. Larson. The Governor 's Traffi c Safety Council will direct the program said Larson , who serves as the Council' s chairman . The program will .consist of television , radio and print messages which feature Pennfrom testimonials sylvanians who have survived serious automobile accidents .because they were wearing seat belts. A research study on seat belts being conducted for the Council recently revealed that only one in every six Pennsylvanians wear seat belts. Yet, Larson said, seat belts are the best known way to prevent injuries and deaths in traffic accidents. "If the new education program can increase the use of seat belts by just five percentage points, more than 64 lives, 4,172 injuries and $320 Phi Sigma Xi is College Bowl Champ Phi Sigma Xi is the winner of BSC's College Bowl Competition for the second year in a row.

Discussion of Iranian Situation ( continued from page two) perhaps one could look at this objectively. This situation seems politically to fit right in. The American Press presents the President as a leader and it is thus the public perceives him. An amusing fact considering the way he sidestepped the issue by allowing the Shah to leave the country. Most political leaders ignore the accusation that perhaps the United States meddled in the Iranian government and economy and got burned. All these things weigh heavily in the up-coming election. An International trial and an admission of guilt stated on the part of the United States in Iran has been proposed to be acceptabl e by the Iranians. The American Government agrees with the trial of the Shah , but not their admitting guilt. Perhaps, the Shah and the part the United States played should be tried and the truth established through evidence. The Shah's innocence or guilt , and the part the United States government has in his regime could haunt our political future, as badly as the spectre of Watergate still haunts the halls of Washington. Now , Russian troops have invaded Iran 's neighboring country of Afghanistan and the Iranians are feeling threatened. They fear they may be next on the Russian menu. Fortunately , for the Iranians, the United States is very displeased with this brash act on the part of the Russians. The Press presents the picture that the United States should aid Afghanistan and Iran in order to avoid dangerous Russian expansion in the Middle East. Is this to be a humanitarian act or are we acting out of the economic necessity to keep the valuable Middle East oil fields out of Russian hands? What will be the outcome? Time will pass and the truth will come out of the fog. It remains to be seen which countries come out clean when the fog clears.

Taking a stand on the draft CHRIS LEAVEY , president , of CAS , chats with President , McCormick and Senate candidate Warren Williams prior to a Senatorial candidates forum on Saturday. (Photo by Gary Lefebure) BY BOB KLEIN Registration for the draft ; will it affect your education ? The Commonwealth Association of Students seriously examined this pressing issue throughout their statewide conference held at BSC last weekend. Should CAS ascert a position dealing with the draft? The question was raised frequently. The student representatives felt the fear of losing their credibility as student leaders of the PSCU system by taking.a position on the draft. Furthermore, the realization that most campuses are split on the issue is certainly a dilemna that can invoke CAS opposition either way. Is the draft a social issue or does it borderline as an educational issue? Upon consideration of the draft as strictly an educational issue affecting all students and the entire PSCU system , the reps disclosed a variety of facts on the impact of the draft to the PSCU system. Defining the registration of the draft as a 1 single entity, not reflecting any kind of consideration of the! present political situations, is a crucial understanding that the students must be aware of. After examination of the draft and its damaging impact on the educational system, CAS adopted the following resolution; Whereas a draft system has the potential of depriving the state college system of large numbers of students] thereby creating great financial difficulty for the system, and ' Whereas any governmental attempts at bringing back military conscription through registration of a draft woujd seriously disrupt the life styles and careers of the students of thelPSCU system, and Whereas there has not appeared , to date , any conclusive evidence that the military draft is necessary for the maintenance of national security, and j Whereas a draft system will deprive students of their rights to a college education, Be it resolved that the Commonwealth Asso nation of Students opposes any attempts to reinstate the military draft and the registration system during PEACETIME. FROM WORKSHOP! TO SPEECHES, the group of students were kept busy with discussions on a wide range of items pertaining to the state colleges. (Photos by Lefebure & Albert M.

Three of this bills deal with reformed reproductive health education, to extenc to schools, couples and agencies. Also, the group is concerned with proper penalties for sterilization abuse and mudical negligence. The establishment of Obstetric - Gynecological mis in all counties is another matter of interest with NOW. With a discussion on the Equal Rights Admendment (ERA) , Whitley explained the 59 cent wage difference on the average between men and women. NOW is continuing on the ratification of the ERA in three other s ates. I A PAIR OF CANDIDATES, Norman Bertasavage, left , and Warren Williams discussed their views on va rious state and national topics. (Photo by Lofoburo) STARTING WITH EXECUTIVE SESSIONS, the conference ended with a plenary policy-making meeting on Sunday. Topics for approval included taking a stand on the proposed draft registration. (Photo by Sukowaski) ' . Whitley -then mentioned the proposed draft registration. NOW stands opposed to the po icy since "the response stimulates an environment for war ," sap Whitley. She felt that too many are willing to battel with othei 's lives>-and, more importantly, claimed the government has been biased concerning women in the military. Whitley said that women have always 'served in the military, but have been under a stereotype that women" could not fight. With today's technology, said Whitley, there is a greater need for brain than brawn, and a greater increase of women in the reserves could offshoot many problems. ' The discussion ended with Deb Young, campus organizer for NOW , seeking help from the student body. Services are needed in the areas of support and organization. A student activism kit was delivered explaining methods of setting up a women's group on campus. WORKSHOPS GALORE Saturday afternoon , the CAS representatives broke into small groups to discuss various topics. Workshop topics included a Women 's Talcs Force, a Handicapped Task Force, Gay Rights, search warrants and student insurance. Approximately 42 representatives attneded the conference. All state colleges and Indiana University were represented. BRIDGET WHITELY, Permsylvania president of NOW discussed the women's role in today's social issues . (Photo by Lofoburo) BSC hosts state reps. Governor Thornburgh requests budget ( continued from page one) at least $150 per year, raising the fee to $1,100. A footnote points out that the appropriation total does not include a pending request for a ap$2,700 ,000 deficiency propriation for the current year '. BSC is projecting a balanced budget for this year and will not receive any deficiency funds. It was also noted that the proposed distribution of the requested 1980-81 appropriation is based on an allocation formula developed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) . The amount designated for BSC is 7.31 percent of the total appropriation. Fall enrollment reports show that BSC has 8.17 percent of the system's total full-time equivalent students. Bloomsburg called attention tolnequities in the distribution of appropriated funds in 1975 when the college had 7.52 percent of the FTE students but Library provides more sp ace Do you need a quiet place to study? Does the library seem over-crowded , especially on Sunday nights? Library officials are planning an experimental idea which could alleviate this problem. Beginning March 3, Room L35, the mini-auditorium on the first floor will be open to students for studying purposes. The room will be open Sunday through Saturday after 6 p .m. received only 6.68 percent of the available funds. Some adjustments were made on a yea rto-year basis and by 1978-79 BSC's percentage share had been increased to 6.99 percent. Last year the PDE adopted a distribution formula based on productivity, credit hour projected faculty and support service needs, and physical plant cos ts. Since it was assumed tha t the smaller institutions cannot be operated as efficiently as the larger schools, an "economy of scale" factor was included in the formula. It was also determined tha t the formula would be implemented in stages over a three-year period , and last year Bloomsburg's share was set at 7.14 percent. In 1981-82, when the formula will be implemented fully, Bloomsburg's percentage will be 7.48 percent, according to current projections. The allocation recommended for this year by the governor for BSC is $700,000 higher than it would be under the percentage used in 1978-79.
