New grading system V may be implemented By CHRIS CLEAVER The CC.CA - committee ' is supervising a revision of the present grading system at BSC. This.' . ' motion was discussed lasVWed , April 24, at the BSC Representative Assembly meeting in Kehr Union. "The new system involve will using plus signs on grades." The new system will involve using plus signs on grades. Its purpose is to try and alleviate grade inflation. Use of this system will allow profs to more accurately reward students for their classroom achievements : The motion , as stated, will involve only plus marks and not minus .signs. The grading process' main intention is to let the outstanding students receive recognition and to more clearly define to employers who are the top students. Another academic area discussed by the R.A. was permitting students to double major. After minor deliberations a motion was unanimously passed allowing students to major across schools. "Students electing to major in two . departments must have a major advisor in each department, meet all of the major requirements of each department and all of the general education requirements ," This R.A. meeting was the last one of the semester. Acting chairperson Dr. Robert Rosholt, recognized individuals who are leaving the assembly and expressed hopes of having a motivated assembly when they return next Sept. TKE was awarded 2nd place in the Greek Sing Competition. Here Shaun McCreary, Tim Carroll, and JdFff Fagen perform to a commercial skit. ' M (Photo by Pat Murphy) Vice President Buckingham to retire A Bloomsburg State College institution will consummate this December when 61-year old Boyd F. Buckingham retires from his position as Vice President for Administration. A native of York, Pennsylvania, Mr. Buckingham has a diversified background. He attended B.S.C. from 1939 to 1943 and was granted a Bachelor of Science degree. Upon graduation he enrolled at Bucknell University 's graduate school where he earned his Masters of Science. Following Bucknell he worked on his doctorate at Penn State but never completed his dissertation. Mr. Buckingham began his teaching career at Athens Area High School in 1945. In 1947 he hooked on at Sayre Area High School where he taught and worked part-time at; WATS, a small radio station. A call in MayV 1953 from Hapvey Andruss, then BSC's president , threw his career in a different direction. "Mr. Andruss called me 'at home one Saturday and sind that he had a position available for me as an assistant Professor' of Speech. I met with him that same day and happily accepted. " Mr. Buckingham recalled with a touch of sentiment those early years. "After a year I became an associate Professor of Speech. In January of 1055* I accepted an additional position as Director of Public Relaltions. My responsibilities were to write news releases for all campus activities including sports, faculty meetings, and cultural arts affairs . It was great fun ". In 1965 Mr , Buckingham, assumed the post he will relinquish in December. Mr. Buckingham was more than willing to give his personal views on a number, of. con- temporary issues here at BSC. Neatly attired in a light green suit , rust shirt, and brown plaid tie , he seemed extremely concerned with the difficulties students may "face if President Reagan 's budget cuts pass. "We will try to help our students in stated way, " every Buckingham. "We will continue the practice of allowing for deferred payments along with providing as much student employment as possible. We also have at our disposal a limited amount of Alumni loans which are , available to students. " Mr. Buckingham warned that the going may get tough . "Sacrifices will have to be made by the students. They will have to establish their priorities and stick to them. An education is an investment and most , if not all, of a students earnings will have to be put toward their education. But in the long run it will be the best investment the student ever made." When asked how he felt about the accusation that the athletic program here at BSC is "going downhill", Mr; Buckingham , after- hesitantly enunciating "That's a tough one", reacted , "At Bloomsburg Education is number one. We recruit good students first. If a student can do well in his studies and play a sport as well, fine. But we will not recruit just athletes like the big universities do. " Mr, Buckingham added , "If there is enough money and interest for a sport then we will have the sport. If not , we will put the dollars where they count most". Library periodicals have been cut by two-thirds in the past two fiscal years , according to reliable sources. When asked to explain why , these . cuts were made . , in , ,tbo; '.co)\ego's ' most important part Mr. Buckingham replied, "At one time our library had the budget to buy many, many periodicals. But the time has come where choices have had to be made. The subscriptions terminated were the ones which were fel t to be read the least. Dwindling resources have forced us to weed out all the least-used things ". Mr. Buckingham offered advice to BSC students on how to approach life , its problems, and the unforseeable events both good arid bad that are bound to occur. "Always have the attitude to want to learn . Learning whatever you can is a challenge from the cradle to the grave. To succeed in anything, continued Mr! Buckingham , one must pay his or her dues to society and work their way up. Committed , capable , compassionate, and understanding are four key attributes that one should strive to have." Mr. Buckingham also urged the idea of helping others, "In helping others you help yourself and make the world a better place to live. Actions you take, both good and bad , have a way of coming back to you. " After his retirement, Mr. Buckingham will become more active in the civic organization s he belongs to. Among other memberships, he belongs to the Bloomsburg Area Industrial Development Association , The Bloomsburg Town Planning Commission , The Elks Club, and The Bloomsburg Chapter of the Red Cross. "I just want to keep helping others for as long as I can ", concluded Mr. Buckingham . , "It makes me ¦ , happy".,V; ' placed an all lottbrt to tho orillor with an allowance for oxcoptlont.

Oink Men Swimmers To the Editor: A recent article in the Campus Voice entitled "Men 's S w i m m i n g C o n t r o v er s y " continues at BSC which was a reprint of an article that appeared in the Morning Press on April 13th discussed the current situation of the men 's swimming team at Bloomsburg State College. We don 't wish to engage in a discussion of the facts presented in the article , as they have been dwelled on more than enough times , and f u rt h e r reference to them would achieve no purpose. What we do want to question , however , is that the overall tone of the article tends to imply that coach McLaughlin doesn 't care about the BSC men 's swimming team or its individual members. We can attest to the fact that this is definitely not true. Having been involved with the men 's swimming team at BSC for several years , we feel confident in saying that despite (he fact that certain problems may or may not exist , the one thing that is clear is that coach mcLaughlin is deeply dedicated to both the men 's swimming team as a whole, as well as each of the individual members participating on the squad. There are numerous examples of coach McLaughlin helping the athletes on his team with academic , financial and emotional assistance. As a member of the coaching staff. McLaughlin is under no obligation to do more than supervise the teams workout. Coach , however , has always maintained his responsibility to his athletes which extends beyond these primary duties and he also feels a deep commitment to help his swimmers in areas outside the practice session. To have a reader who has never had personal contact with McLaughlin develop an opinion of him both as a coach, and as a man on the basis of one article is unfair to someone who has given over 20 years of dedicated service to Bloomsburg State College , its athletic program ¦ and its students. , . . - . . ; ' ~ Tom Reilly Phil Spampinato Parking problems By BILL WHITE Parking has become a question of great concern to many BSC students. In several instances students have had to park in the downtown area to attend classes, or else walk all the way up to campus if they are running on a tight schedule. Many times they find themselves late or miss classes all together. There are also those who take two spaces while parking in hopes of protecting their cars from scratches.,I've seen many perfectly, fit individuals taking the spaces marked handicapped and walk away making a joke about it. Automobiles have become a way of life to - the average American. However, just as there are rights and privileges guaranteed by the law , there is also responsibility . One responsibility is for the students to follow school policy. The responsibility of the school is to insure adequate parking for those who qualify and to insure that those who don't do not abuse school policy and in doing so take spaces from those who need it.

Ilment. Success in these snuggles was and is seen as crucial to maintaining quality higher education in Bloomsburg in fa st-changing times. However , never was BSC threatened inthe 1970' s as seriously as it apparently was in a brief time during World War II. From March to October, 1943, two schemes were reported which would have ended college education in Bloomsburg. Part of a March 2 , account 1943, newspaper follows: BILL TO ENABLE SALE OF EIGHT STATE COLLEGES enabling the State Council of Education to lease or sell to the federal government as many of the colleges ... as it may desire. The enrollment at these colleges has fallen sharply and will decline further. There is no justification for keeping all of the colleges in operation...

Where do you turn? A too busy professor or a friend who "knows a little" or do you just do nothing and take your chances? There is an alternative. The Center Academic for Development (CAD) offers , among its many services, a tutorial and study skills program for BSC students. Ron DiGiondomenico, tutorial co-ordinator for CAD, says that the center, "is a department which provides supportive services for BSC students. It includes, but is not limited to tutorial help, study skills and academic, financial , personal counseling." CAD operates supplemental labs in the three basic skills areas : reading, writing and mathematics. The reading lab is staffed by James Mullen and Vergie Bryan. The lab concentrates on study skills , reading comprehension and retention rates. DiGiondomenico says, "We don 't teach them reading per se, but we help students understand the content area they are involved in. " The math lab is co-ordinated by Beth Pesillo. The lab concentrates on any math related problem , which is generally connected with a specific course, or it is used in preparation for a course. The writing lab, which is set up to assist students in writing, in any area , and to help them develop better writing skills, is manned by Harry Ackerman , a staff member with CAD who also teaches English composition. DiGiondomenico says that the function of the tutorial program is to determine and assess the needs and resources that are available, at the request of the student. "The student has to come to us," DiGiondomenico sa s, and added , "when they come, many are embarrassed and shocked that they need help. It's foolish not to seek help because they are too proud. " A student must first contact the professor of the course in question to discuss the problem before seeking a tutor. "We do not want to be in the position to sidestep the professor. We replace the assist , not DiGiondomenico professor ," says. Once the needs of the student have been determined , the center tries to utilize the labs and the best available sources , including tutors , into an individualized program. The tutors are students who are generally required to have a 3.0 cu , departmental recommendations, and a college workstudy form on record. Currently there are 54 tutors working for the Center , although not every one is working all the time. The largest number of tutors are needed for business, accounting and chemistry . The Center will , though , seek to obtain a tutor in any course requested. "I contact the department in question if we don 'h have a tutor and express a need for assistance. They will send word through the departmental and we will have a tutor ," DiGiondomenico states. Once a tutor has been located , it is the responsibility of the tutor-tutee to mutually agree upon the location , time and length of the sessions. says , DiGiondomenico "Tutors are told to stay in contact and to let me know of any problems. They are there to assist the student , not to do the work for the student." How successful is the tutorial service? DiGiondomenico says, "The grades that are earned are good. I feel that the program is successful, and the feedback from the students is enthusiastic and approving. " services , The tutorial DiGiondomenico stresses , are not only for the prevention of failure , but it can also be used to strengthen good grades as well. A concern of the center is that students do not seek help early enough . DiGiondomenico says, "The greatest number of students come in around midterm when they are hit with the realization of failure . He reemphasizes, "If a student anticipate s difficulty, seek help immediately. It's better to be safe than sorry ." DiGiondomenico urges that anyone interested in becoming a tutor contact the Center at the end of this semester or the beginning of the fall semester. Also, a financial aid form must be filed if a student is to be considered for a job. "1 would feel bad if a student failed a course because he was too proud to accept help, " DiGiondomenico states, continuing, "We all need help at one time or another. " 4 inducted into Language Society Four Bloomsburg State College students were inducted into Iota Theta Chapter of Phi Sigma Iota , the National Foreign Language Honor Society, over the weekend. Formal initiation was held on Sunday, April 26, 1981, for the following : Patricia Jane Burke , of Morea Colliery, Pennsylvania ; Constance Ellen Dgien, of Williamsport , Pennsylvania ; Patricia Ann Peterson, of Mendham , New Jersey; and Stephen Michael Slampyak , of Warminster , Pennsylvania. Taking part in the ceremonies were Mary C. Lieb , Chapter President , Professor Mary Lou F. John, Chapter Advisor , and Professors Ben C. Alter , C. Whitney Carpenter II , Susanne Lipp-Martinez , and Allen F. Murphy. Phi Sigma Iota , a national honor society with 100 chapters throughout the United States , recognizes outstanding students in the field of foreign languages and literatures ; members must have earned a B-f- average in their work in foreign languages, as well as a B average in all college courses, and must have completed advanced courses in a foreign language.

With a more varied program dorms have been involved in horseback riding, pizza parties and presentations. Picnics, date parties, banquets and mixers have been noteworthy items. Special sessions have been presented by speakers such as Dr. Bashore's talk on parapsychology. Robert Norton, dean of Student Life says, "I feel good about our residence hall life because we have good students and maintenance department to make dorm life worthwhile. " He also says that, "A well kept campus can lead to a good description of . what interviewers , want. The atmosphere of our resident life provides a return in future employment for students." Along with the good comes the bad. Rules and regulations are the main gripes of dorm life. George Kirlin, resident dean of Luzerne Hall states, "You can have different freedoms at home in the way of alcohol and visitation that you don't have here." Discipline problems are still prevalent in the use of alcohol and drugs but damage to the halls has been less this year. Next fall an inter-hall council will be formed to provide closeness to the halls and consistency in policy between halls. Alcohol and drug awareness programs along with other revisions can be made through the hall council. Larry Ebeling, student at BSC, related that "Dormitory life is worthwhile to me in giving me responsibility but some rules are a hinderance on how much responsibility I have. " Dormitory life is a meaningful experience for students if they make it that way. It is a time to assume life as an adult on their own. Enjoy dorm life for what it offers in cleaniness, mobility to classes and activities to participatre in to make your stay at BSC WORTHWHILE. Receivejobswith LEIP Will you have junior or senior class standing during the coming fall Semester? If so, the question of future employment has probably crossed your mind. Work experience can often make the difference in obtaining the position you want. BSC can provide you with that needed edge through our Harrisburg Life Experience Internship Program (LEIP). Under the LEIP program , you are given the opportunity to gain experience working with enthusiastic staff members while earning academic credits.

(Photo by Pat Murphy) From Che Archives Bill enables sale of 8 colleges (Continued from Page 2) tendent Francis B. Haas (interestingly, Haas was the former president of Bloomsburg State Teachers College ) today disclosed plans to convert "six or eight" of the 14 State Teachers Colleges into regionally-owned vocational training centers. Haas said postwar plans provide for sale of several of the colleges to local school districts , which will operate them j ointly for the technical training of their high school graduates . . . and should also provide postwar rehabilitation for war veterans and civilians crippled in industry and retraining of adults for the shift from wartime to peace time occupations. Fortunately for Bloomsburg, this plan did not take either. direction which just might help to weed out some pseudo students. This will at least enable serious students to get the chance to get to classes ont ime and to take advantage of their right to get the education they pay so dearly for. _ Serious students get serious about problems which affect you. Take action expecially commuters and those who are directly affected by the problem.lt is time to stand up for what you believe in. Adequate parking for those who qualify and need it and adherence to rule of the college to enable those who seek to profit from this college. My sincere best wishes to those who follow the rules and my wishes for good luck for those seeking adequate parking especially if they have only ten minutes in which to get to class. Letters to Editor (Continued from Pago 2) There are many freshmen and sophomore students who are residing in the dorms who own and operate cars and abuse that privilege at BSC. According to college policy, this is illegal unless there are extenuating circumstances. Most of these underclassmen, however , do not fall into those categories. I repeat that this is not entirely the fault of the students. Most of us, when given the opportunity, might sidestep if given the chance. The school must take steps to stop this abuse of parking privileges so that it might benefit those who need it the most. Those who travel 20 miles to school on a strict schedule are constantly taxed by this problem. This in some way relates the general sense of fun and games that exists among some of the student body who attend BSC with the idea of a constant party , free love (or sex if you prefer), dope, booze and freedom from responsibility at state and taxpayers expense with complete disregard for the rights and privileges of those many serious students. While some may argue that this has no connection with the parking problem it does, at least, in my opinion , reflect the current trend of student apathy with regards to following school policies and infringement of others rights. It is up to both the students and the administration to become indignant and if need be outraged , as I'm sure many are , and put a stop to the parking problem as a step int he right Four inducted (Continued from Page 4) Mary Lieb also read the poem "Rima IV , " by Gustavo Adolfo Becquer , 19th Century Spanish Romantic poet. The following officers were elected for 1981-82 : Stephen By KRISTINA CULLEN has a deep concern for the physical, College Bloomsburg State emotional and educational well-being of all associated with the institution. BSC also has an obligation to uphold and conform to local and state laws. Therefore , the college cannot condone the consumption or possession of alcoholic beverages by underaged individuals, nor the illegal sale of alcoholic beverages by or to any individual. It is the policy of BSC that underaged individuals shall not consume, be served, or be sold alcoholic beverages at any formal or informal gathering or function sponsored by any person or group affiliated with the college. Any illegal sale of alcoholic beverages by any person or group affiliated with the college is also prohibited. This is the alcoholic beverage policy recently adopted by the Representative Assembly of BSC, a committee comprised of various students and faculty members: According to Jerrold Griffis , vice president for Student Life at BSC, this is the Pennsylvania state law and has always been the policy of the college, but it has n ow become official. "The college feels a basic concern about the problem of alcohol consumption on and off campus," says Griffis. He says he doesn't think the policy will stop the drinking of alcohol by students, but that it will make students more conscientious about limiting the events at which alcohol is consumed, as well as more careful about the activities that go on at these events. "Parties aren 't the problem ", says Griffis. "Alcohol is. Students should be responsible for their own behavior when drinking, but when this behavior effects others the college becomes involved." The Co-Ordinating committee on College Life , is presently studying sanctions that BSC may consider if there are ciolations of teh new policy. Griffis says the LCB will be notified if college officials find out that a major party, such as Hawian Weekend, is planned, because technically the college has no legal right to stop an off-campus party. Students who violate the school party policy will be dealt with individually as cases arise. The seriousness of the offense will be determined. If the individual is considered a threat to himself or others he will be summarily suspended. If not, the student will be brought before the judicial board. After a hearing, judicial board will recommend a sanction to the department of Student Life that may be accepted or rejected. In any case, the student may appeal. At present there are several cases pending. The main purpose of the policy, according to Griffis , is "to prevent disruptions that result from student sponsored off-campus parties and prevent the physical and mental harassemnt that can occur when these functions get out of hand". By requiring students to keep tighter control over who attends their parties and how partiers behave, it is hoped that the number of problems that occur as a result of parties will be lessend.
