Dear Students,
Do you know that the wool is
once again being drawn over our
ears? Once again a student right
is being denied us. That right is
the freedom to have good
professors. Now we not only
cannot pick the professors we
want but the chances of being
assigned a good professor are
becoming slimmer for t h e
simple reason tha t good professors are either being fired,
or in "better terms," not being
rehired. Now to add lo the long
list of unrehired professors we
have the name of Mr. Dave
Benson. And why? The administration says he broke a
school rule. Last year he followed
his beliefs ( and those of many
others ) of modern progressive
education and did not administer
a final examination to his classes.
The rule, which was changed the
Thursday before finals were
given stated that a comprehensive final exam would be
given in all classes and that it
should count no more than one
third of the final grade. Other
professors, although they gave a

An Impossib ilit y???

by Mike Spellman

Many people say they are
concerned on what is happening
on campus. I often hear students
complain that some of their
teachers don't teach at all and
also some students yell that
many of the teachers they learn
something from , don't seem to
stick around too long. Isn't that a
shame?
I have been asking fellow
students that if they are so
concerned about some of the
situations on campus such as
question of their teachers, why
don't they do something constructive about it? I get replies
such as "It doesn't matter what
we do, it is useless, nothing will
come out of it, nothing will
change." To these poeple I like to
say something how I feel. If you
really believe in something you
will be ready to stand up for it. If
you just sit back and don't do
anything, then I feel you really
don't believe or really mean what

final did not give a comprehensive one or one that was
worth no more than one third of
the final grade. Yet the administration showed no concern
about this. For these reasons I
believe the rule was enforced to
get rid of Mr. Benson because of
his other disagreeable actions on
campus. And believe me this
won 't be the first time that a
professor has not been rehired
because of his disagreeable
actions. What a professor,
believes does not hinder his
teaching abilities nor does a
masters' or doctorate make a
good teacher. Only the students
who have the professors know if
he is good or not. We are the ones
who take the course, sit in the
class, and get the grade, it's our
education. Why then does the
administration hold complete
power as to what professors we
may choose from?
It's time students united and
began to do something about this
power system. Complain, write
letters, talk to others, attend
meetings. Voice your opinion
before you lose your chance to
obtain a good education.
Sincerely,
Peggy Christian

Durin g the first hearing con-

cerning an inj uncti on between
Dr. R obert J . N ossen, Deake G.
Por ter and Dr. Joseph Skeeha n,
the term "inci te t o rebell i on " was
used in reference to Mr. Porter 's
presence on campus. It was
suggested by Att orney Evans ,
counsel f or N ossen, t hat Mr.
Por ter 's p resence and action lend
themselves t o t he a pp lica t ion of
the term "Inci te to rebellion. "

Being an avid fan of the
revolut ion , the thought came to

mind tha t maybe I missed it.
Seemed as if Porter had incited
the inciteable t o rebellion. Where
was I ?
The only event In the most
recent past that in any way
resembles rebellion in terms of

p eace f ul di ssen t was t he
demonst ra ti on i n fron t of Carver

Word came to me while sitting in
the court room the morning of t he

seen at the TRAIN movie. Could
it be tha t the Attorney mistook
t he p eaceful , non-violen t ,

And fur t her t ha t p erha ps Mr.
Por ter was responsible ? A joke of
course , since if Porter runs

Sounds like a decent explanation for Attorney Evans '
use of the term "incite to
rebellion. " Maybe I didn 't miss
the revolution after all.

,
however
children told me stories, stories,
and more stories, about being
called niggers, of their fathers
not being able to find jobs even
though they were well qualified.
The clincher of my awareness
came this year when firs t
semester I took Dave Benson for
Contemporary Social Problems.
We discussed things in class
which I'm sure half the class had
never even thought of discussing.
We talked about racism ,
education, poverty , society in
general. Dave Benson was the
first teacher in my entire life
whom I really enjoyed talking
with or who would actually allow
some real open discussion in
class. His class was my first
encounter
with
relevant
education at B.S.C. Unfortunately for many "sociology"
majors, they will be losing a
chance for some relevant
education because he will not be
allowed to be teaching next year.
The reason , I feel is obvious. Mr.
D. Benson is a good teacher who
knows WHAT'S going on in the
world, therefore he doesn't fit the
role of a normal professor at
B.S.C. Worse yet, Dave Benson is
a man of principles who sticks up
for them despite the suppression
of the administration. Dave's
worst "fault ," the reason he has a
terminal contract, is that he
doesn't conform to the official
B.S.C. stereotype professor. The
reason Dave won't be back is that
he won't bend over backwards to
pervertly please others.

To the editor :
Below are two words used
frequently on the BSC campus in
discussions between the faculty
and - or administration and the
student body, that are, in my
estimation, mistakenly used as
synonyms. These words and their
definitions, as from Webster's
Seventh New College Dictionary,
are :
to hear: to perceive or apprehend
by the ear...
to listen : to hear with thoughtful
attention : heed...
We can HEAR the mumbles
and grumbles of student unrest—
the noise—but how many
LISTEN with "thoughtful attention " in order to gain some
insight of why all the noise?
There are many policies enforced by the administration that
we students don't quite understand . Perhaps those who are
directing these policies think that
the students need not have any
say i n the mat ters even th ough
they ( t h e students) are directiy
affected by the outcome of the
decisions. This is where the noise

o! discontent can be h e a r d .

The problem is, that student
reaction to policies is not
LISTENED to.
O ne case rela ti ng t o t his
problem of "to hear is to listen "

Benson is a prof in the Sociology

Sweet Dre ams an d
Fly ing Ma ch ines

by Joe Miklos
James Taylor and the Original
Flying Machine is an album that
we would believe to be "an
historical recor ding" . Be careful ,
this recor d is a rip-off for several
reasons . The qual ity of the
recording is bad in itself. Another
thing, the record is shor t, much of
the recor ding space being filled
with garbage: Taylor making
some very trit e witticisms , ' the
engineer butting in telling the
band to do that cut over because
he forgot to turn on the record
switch , and various mistakes by
the band , that are the fragments
of songs that never are finished .
The music itsell is consistently
bad. Here 's the run-down of this
abomination .
The record starts off with
"Night Owl ," seemingly an attempt at blue-eyed soul .
Remembering that the Flying
M ach ine was init iall y a soul
grou p, the song fits. But where
are the instruments? Easy—
barel y sq ueez ing pas t the vocal.
There is no power or dr ive in this
song at all . It' s a far cr y f rom t he
funkiness at the end of "Suite for
20G" on the Sweet Baby J ames
al bum. The recording then moves
along to "Brighten Your Night
With My Day. " Forget this song.

This is a little story about a
little boy and his very big father .
I'll be very happy if everybody
who picks up today 's M&G takes
the time to read it and think about
it. But I especially hope that the
following "educators " will take a
few minutes out of their busy day
to read* it and think about what
they 're doing : first of all , Vice
President Hoch because it was
his "testimony at the PorterSkehan-BSC hearing that inspir ed it; next , in no particular
order , President Nossen, Vice
President Hunsinger , Vice
President Buckingham , Mr.
Bunge, and all those Department
heads and professors whom Mike
Carroll so accurately described
as "semi-skilled laborers ."

'cool."
"School Bobby. Say sssschoq ^"
"Ssssschool , I wanna go to

"Like what Daddy, like what? "
"Well Bobby, they taught us to
hate and be afraid of people who
weren 't like us. They told us that
only we were good and that
everyone else was bad."
"Hate , Daddy? What does that
mean ?"
"Well Bobby, its something
very bad that people do to each

Publications
Exhib it

Last year, the Andruss Library
presented an exhibit of faculty
publications in conjunction with
the inauguration of President
Nossen. They would like to make
this an annual event and are
considering an expansion of the
exhibit to include non-book as
well as book or printed material.
Faculty help and co-operation
is being sought to, make the
exhibit a success. It would be
appreciated if the library could
borrow examples of faculty 's
most recent work(s) or , if
possible , give their works to the
library . From new members of
the faculty , they would like to
have a loan (or gift ) of ariy older
works that were published.
The 'Facul ty Publications
Exhibit will be on display in the
Library during the month of
April.

By JOHN HOFFMAN
BSC Cindermen opened their
71 outdoor track season on
March 24th with a decisive win
over three schools: Springfield,
Towson, and Gallaudet School for
the Deaf , by the score of 71; 55,
46, and 13 respectively. Despite
chilly, to say the least, weather
conditions of 32 degrees and a
chill factor of 12 degrees, the
Huskies of Coach Ron Puhl put
together six first place slots, 8
second places, six third place
finalists and 4 fourth places to ice
the victory.
FICEK OVER 50
In my first "track soars"
column I said that sophomore
shot putter John Ficek threw
better when the grade of competition increased and that before
the season was over he would
reach the 50 foot mark. Well both
observations came true. Ficek
won the shot put event and also
established a new BSC record
with a heave of 51'6". Just ahead
of Springfield's John Woodward
who putted 50' 1%" . Joe Couter of
BSC finished fourth with a 41' 8"

DAVIS 2 FIRSTS
Tri-captain Jim Davis captured two first place finishes in
the 100 and 220 yard dashes. His
time in the 100 was 10 flat . Flashy
Rick Eckert finished third in the
race just 112,614,400th o f a y e a r
(or .4 of a second ) behind Davis.
In the 220 yard dash, Davis won in
a time of 22.8 seconds a slim .1 of
a second ahead of Towson's
Parry. Jim was also high pointman of t h e afternoon with 13
points and Andy Kusma was
second with 10 points to his
credit. Tri-captains elected by
the team other than Jim Davis
are distance runners , Tim
Waecther and Terry Lee.
The locals took second in the
440 yard relay in the time of 45.
flat behind Towson State who
turned in a 44.8 clocking.

euiM i.

Gary Melhorn finished third in
the javelin event with a throw
and Jim Cavalero placed fifth
chucking the spear 169' 8Vfe " only
Vi" behind the fourth place
competitor. A heavy crosswind
prevailed throughout the entire
competition.
In the long jump competition
Hank Plumly and Andy Kusma of
Bloomsburg finished second and
fourth respectively with jumps of
20' one-third" and 19' 8%".
Leepin' Bob Lacock won the
high iump competition at a high
of 6' 2". Kent Prizer finished
third for the locals with a jump of
6 feet even.
Bruce Bitner took fourth place
in the 440 yd. run in the time of
52.7. At this point the Huskies
were losing 20-26 to Springfield.
The mile run saw Larry Horwitz and Terry Lee finish 2-3 with
clockings of 4:37.7 and 4:38.5.
Horwitz's time of 4:37.7 was just
.2 of a second off the winning pace
Carrico of Towson State.

In the 880 yard run Junior,
Larry Strohl took first place
honors when he turned in a
winning time of 2:02.7. Strohl
was hampered by colds
throughout cross country season
but now seems to be in fine shape
which should improve as the
season continues.
KUSMA 4 PLACEMENTS

Terry Lee and Charlie Grahm
aided the Huskies cause with
second place finishes in the 2 mile
run and intermediate hurdles.
Lee's time for the 2 mile was 10.06
while Grahm clocked 59.1 in the
intermediate hurdles.
Joe Courter copped third place
honors for the Huskies in the
discus with a throw of 114' 5V4 "

Students And Legislators
( continued from page one )
State get more money than the
fourteen State Colleges combined. Senator Davis replied that
the first question was hard to
answer because most state
revenues go into the General
fund; he told an interesting story
about the new Hershey Medical
Center and stated that Penn State
was a land grant college and was
constantly being told to enlarge
its enrollment in answer to the
second.
The questioning took an interesting turn when Mr. Zarski,
Assistant Dean of Men, stated
that New York had recently
lowered the penalties for the use
of marijuana. He then asked the
lawmakers if they foresaw this
happening in Pennsylvania and
what their' reaction would be.
Senator Davis replied that there
were some cases in which the law
was too severe but that he felt the
use of marijuana could lead to
harder drugs although there was
some doubt as to its harmful
effects . He later said : "I'm
sorry, I can't agree to it. As long
as I'm kicking, I'll kick it out of
your hands, I'll kick it out of your
minds, and I'll kick it out of your
hearts."
Wi th regards to the drug
question , Shellhamer stated:
"There is a tendency in our
society to be promiscuous with
regards to these things."
The matter of lowering the
voting age in Pennsylvania also
came up. Senator Davis
predicted that eighteen year olds
would be allowed to vote in local
elections, perhaps by this fall , but
probably not until next year.

Although the meeting was cut
short by the fact that the
legislators' visit to BSC was
running behind schedule , it
provided the students and staff
with an opportunity to learn how
the local lawmakers felt about
issues affecting the BSC student
body . More such sessions could
prove useful in the development
of BSC into a more informed
commun ity.

Holt On Education
(continue d fro m page one)

Holt advanced three types of
teachers : competence model, a
teacher who provides a student
with his knowledge and helps the
student attain his own goals; a
skill teacher who imparts a
specialized f o r m of knowledge ;
a roadmap , a t eac h er w h o
prov ides a student with the
means of attaining his own goals.
But whatever the type, he said
that a teacher must have
something the student wants.

Spring is the time to plan for
financial aid to meet next year's
educational expenses. It is good
policy for students to maintain
funds sufficient to pay one
semester 's fees immediately '
since most financial aid is in the
form of reimbursement to
students for educational expenses already met. Parent's

was good, he wasn't quite good
enough as he missed the finals by
a single point. Mike's speech,
"Swimming as Seen Through the
Eyes of a Tuna" enabled him to
do what seemed to be the impossible as he handed a
previously unbeaten West
Chester opponent a defeat. Mike
fina lly put it all together to get
the first place.
Mary Ellen Cavanaugh, Mary
Ellen Golden and Velma Avery
entered the competition in Oral
Interpretation of Literature. BSC
advanced two readers to the
finals, Mary Ellen Cavanaugh
and Velma Avery, a newcomer to
forensics. Mary Ellen captured
third place and although it was
only Velma's second time out,
she didn't seem to mind it as she
promptly took second place.

Ken Koharski , and Brenda

the judges that Wage and Pr se

By the time the scores had been

anyone's mind (especially the
other opponents) as to who was

winning the Sweepstakes, BSC
