This example of a classified ad is one of the many steps taken to hire faculty members. As students, you schedule courses, buy books and attend classes, but did you ever wonder how the professor at the front of your classroom actually got hired?

Edwards and his wife, Sharon, live in Arlington, Va., with their two children, Brean and Susannah and their dog named Trouble. His family is very important to him. Edwards is currently at work on future interviews and promotional tours. His appearance in Bloomsburg is sponsored by the Endowed Lecture Fund as part of the 15th Annual Journalism Institute. The public is welcome to attend at no charge. Director of Affirmative Action and Pat Patterson, from the Personnel Office at Waller, presented their speeches to representatives from the English, geology, sociology, business computer science, physics, communication disorders and nursing departments. After a brief history of regulations and policies of Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Employment, LeinwandJones stressed the two major goals for the program, "We want to prevent discrimination in the future and eliminate the memory of discrimination from the past." Leinwand Jones explained that she wanted to make the campus community a diverse environment, yet still hire the best qualified candidate for the job. "Most students have not had an opportunity to interact with people from different races, religions and cultures; we want to give them that opportunity. We want our applicants to be academic role models as well," Leinwand-Jones said. In order to hire such people, departments must follow certain procedures. The first step is creating job advertisements and a n n o u n c e m e n t s . The advertisements may be for national, searches (for full-time, administrative or management positions) or regional and local searches (for part-time, one semester, or emergency positions). National search advertisements are placed in journals, university n e w s l e t t e r s or n a t i o n a l newspapers. Regional and local searches are placed in local newspapers and university newsletters. Job announcements are more detailed and are sent out to colleges, universities, alumni and personal acquaintances. However, both the advertisements and announcement must say that "Bloomsburg University is an Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Employer." The candidates who apply are (Continued on Page 3) LETTERS BLOOM COUNTY Mad about Floyd The following is a copy of a letter sent to Jimmy Gilliand, Assistant Director of Student' Activit ies. Mr. Gilliand: On Saturday evening, October 29th, I choseto attend the 7:00 P.M. showing of "Pink Floyd - The Wall" and the video dance which began at 9:00 P.M. Upon arriving at Multi-A for the movie, I was told that the movie had been cancelled due to a conflict with the video dance. I immediately asked the student who was apparently in charge; "Why?" His response was that time was needed to set up and test the sound equipment for the dance. He appologizedfor the inconvenience but said there was absolutely rib way the moviecould be shown intil 11:30 P.M., after the dance was over. Now I'm asking you, WHY? ! WHY wasn't this problem foreseenwhen the two events were originally scheduled? WHY was the decision to change the showtimes made sometime (apparently) Saturday afternoon, with no opportunity to provide advance notice to the students who were interested in seeing the movie. WHY wasn't the Multi-A simply shut off from the rest of the Union area being usedfor the movie? WHY do I feel as if the Program Board doesn't really care about what the students want? Yes, I'm mad - very mad. This is the third time since September that I've made plans to attend an event sponsored by the Program Board only to find that the program is either : 1. Cut off in the middle ( Vertigo) 2. Begun at least 30 minutes late (Against All Odds) 3. Cancelled (Pink Floyd - the Wall) Perhaps a deriiand for a partial refund of my Community Activities fee would be appropriate. After all, I did pay that irioney so that I could enjoy a variety of events on campus (most of which, I must add, are excellent), I know that a lack of participation is a problem with events scheduled on the weekends, but if you don't fulfill your promises of entertainment, why should I make an effort to attend and support your programs?

After candidates are screened, the ones chosen are granted an interview. The number of candidates to be interviewed depends on the quality of the applicants , number of women and minorities, their proximities and their winningness to be interviewed. For final recommendation candidates must give a seminar , class presentation or open forum where they not only show their mastery of subject matter, but respond to questions and encourage good communication with students. Leinwand-Jones explained that to complete the search all the information—documentation search form and documentation screening form—must be forwarded to people reviewing the search which include the Dean . Vice President and Director of Affirmative Action. Pat Patterson then spoke on interviewing the applicant! Patterson explained that an interviewer's primary goal is to gather information about the person and to inform that person about B.U.'s environment as well. She continued to talk about interviewing techniques such as situation questions, open questions, and the applicant's evaluation of their own strengths and weaknesses. When discussing interviewing errors, Patterson stressed that by comparing applicants , not preparing questions from their resumes or avoiding questions that might be important for final decisions, the interviewer may make a poor selection. By making a poor selection, students, faculty members and other staff would be offended and cheated personally and , most important , educationally. Cheating policy discussed MARY CHUPKAI . Voice Contributor A cheating ipolicy along with other subjects were discussed last Wednesday by 15 members of the RepresentativeAssembly. Dr. David Minderhout, chairman of the Assembly, presented two memos he received that obj ected to the way campus elections were held: They argued that more information about the candidates was necessary for the voters to make a wise decision. A number of vacancies have yet to be filled on the Assembly. Also, the meiribers stressed that there were many vacancies 6n different committees. Dr. Minderhout said, "I would like to see more student participation." '" .. ' . - . Dr. Walter Brasch, journalism professor, said people are not aware that the committees are open to all constituencies — faculty, staff , and students. Bret Hoffmaster, president of CGA said, "You must actively Living in a college atmosphere MARY CHUPKAI Staff Writer Christine De Melfi, 10, is an average fifth grade student who likes to rollerskate, play with barbies, and watch television, her one distinction is that she lives among college students in Northumberland Hall, a male dormitory. Christine lives with her father , Joe De Melfi, residence director and assistant football coach, and her mother, Ann De Melfi, a Business Education teacher in Montoursville.' They have lived on campus for eight years, having moved here from Berwick. The De Melfi's have found living on campus quite pleasant. Christine likes the easy access to the library and the gameroom. She also makes use of the Swimming pools arid the bowling alleys. One of her favorite pastimes is skating and if you have ever been in Northumberland you may have seen her skating around in the lobby. Christine has made many friends on campus. She knows alot of football players, is treated like a little sister by many of the men who live in Northumberland and she still keeps in touch with former babysit- ' : Answer To Trivia Bob Kees han ~ ¦¦ •• ¦ - • ^ ^ —^_ ^ ^_ _ _ ^_ _ ^_ ters who have long since graduated. Mr. and Mrs. De Melfi have agreed that living on campus has matured Christine very fast. Mr. De Melfi commented, "When she first started school, upon entering the classroom, she said, "I don't know if I'll like it here with all these little kids." Christine shares the same feelings with some college students. First of all, the few times she has eaten at the Commons has taught her to appreciate home cooked meals. She enjoys the same kind of music as most students, such as Billy Idol and Duran Duran. Mrs. De Melfi says Christine even watches the style changes in clothing and does her best to keep her wardrobe modified. While Christine has much in common with the college students, she can still relate to her younger friends. She is often seen walking around campus with her friends and her cabbage patch doll, Cecile Nicole. She also likes animals. She has a hamster named Cocoa, and a tropical fish named Abraham. When asked about the feeling of security on campus, Mr. De Melfi said, "I probably feel more secure living on campus then I would living off. If she was alone and anything happened here, someone would always be nearby to help." The only problem Mrs. De Melfi can foresee if they stayed on campus for a long time would be that maybe Christine would grow tired of the whole campus scene. Nevertheless, Christine replied^ "I '^vsirit to attend college af Blooriisbur^' recruit to get people to be on committees." Dr. Minderhoutwas open to more suggestionsion ways to spread information to all interested people. The coordinating Committee of Academic Affairs,: .( CCAA), introduced the subject of academic dishonesty. Cheating on exams will result in an E for that assignment. The policy will be discussedfurther at the next meeting oh Oct. 31.

BU president, Larry Jones, and Vice-president of student .life Jerrold Griffis, questioned the additional cost of these proposals.Dr. Minderhout . said, "It would not require the need for more teachers, just the reshuffling of them." The issue of the new constitution for non-traditional students was raised. The constitution is too narrow so it was decided an amendment is needed.

You know the ones — powder blue and pink, with the little sharks all around the edges of the soles. He checks the straps on his car racks to make sure his surf boards are secure. They are : Steck is ready to grab some waves. Unfortunately, the waves are over four hours away from his home outside Jerseytown, PaIt seems a bit unusual that a senior, majoring in journalism, from the heart of rural Pennsylvania, could be involved in something as remote as surfing. Steck credits his parents for his initial interest in the sport. "My parents vacationed at the shore every summer. I used to go down to 7th street and hang out a lot just to watch these guys surf. It was something that I always wanted to try, but I really didn't know where to start," said Steck. Steck told his parents about his interest, and both thought he should give it a try. Steck wasn't too sure about the idea at first, but his parents persisted, and in the summer of 1978 he rode on his first board. "It was a rental board, with no wax on it." Steck recalled. "I couldn t even sit on it, it was so slippery. I was out there trying to be cool, falling off my board . I looked like a real kook. All the locals kept giving me these glares all afternoon," he said. Even though he hated it, and didn't get a ride, he stuck with it all afternoon. That was all of the surfing for 1978, but that was enough to get him hooked. The following summer, after high school graduation , Steck and a friend started traveling to the shore to "bum around." "One Friday night we were all sitting around down on the front steps of the pizzaria , watching the cars rust and the grass grow, and seeing how far we could spit. That' s no lie, I have some pretty red neck friends, and that's what we were doing ; seeing how far we could spit! Some fun , right. Well, this Somej>eople said they would put you in jail or make you pay a fine. We didn 't know what they would do, so we picked the most remote place we could find and crashed for the night. It was great. There's absolutely nothing more peaceful than sleeping up in the dunes ; falling asleep to the rhythm of the friend of mine started talking about the shore and the girls and all, and pretty soon I suggested that we all go there, because it was certainly better than here. And he said, "Sure, when?" And I said, "Now!" And everyone there looked at us like were were nuts, but that's what we did. We grabbed our sleeping bags and our swim suits and piled in my car and left," remembered Steck. They all pooled their money for gas and food, and came up with about twelve dollars each, but between three of them that was more than enough. They arrived late that night and ended up sleeping on the beach, tucked up in the dunes , in an out-of-the-way place. That was the start of a tradition of beach bumming that continues to this day. . "We had heard stories about the cops kicking you off of the beach if they found you sleeping there. waves. Once we found out that as long as we were discreet; no one would bother us. We slept on the beach all of the time," he said. This worked out fine for quite a while, but there were some snags to bumming in Ocean City, Steck recalls. "The real reason we bummed, was to keep it cheap so we could keepN coming down. We had the place wired ; still do. Once the season came into full swing, our sleeping grounds got over run with drunk love birds from Atlantic City, who'd come stumbling onto us looking for a secluded place to make out When that happened, we started pulling the "campground sleazy manuever ," where we'd wait 'till the guys at this campground would go to sleep, and we'd sneak in the back route, find a spot and either sleep in the back of the wagon or crash on the ground. In the mornings we'd be up at dawn and out the gate before anyone got wise," said Stock. There were other economical ways of getting by on a limited income recalled Steck. Like sneaking showers at crowded rooming houses to avoid paying a bath house, or the infamous low budget liverwurst lunch special. "We had it down to $15 a piece for two people. For $30 two people could live at the shore all weekend. That included paying for gas, tolls, and meals. For lunch , we'd get a half pound of liverwurst, six rolls, and some drink mix. Six rolls meant two sandwiches each ; for lunch, dinner, and breakfast the next morning ; Unless some girls. Homecoming Weekend Get Your Ads In Early !

BLOOMSBTIRG I working on the boardwalk took pity on us and gave us some free food," ooirl StfiCk After the third trip down to the shore, Steck bought his first board. It wasn 't pretty. It was the cheapest thing he could, find. "I bought this 6'8" Catri single fin. It was pretty wasted, with loads of dings," recalled Steck, "But it only cost me thirty-five dollars. It was great! It had this full length airbrushed Hawaiian chick on the bottom of it. My mom hated it," he admitted. Steck. has since traded : the old board in on a newer style. He still rides a single fin, though he has ridden twin fins, thrusters, and quads. He also owns three long boards, all at least 9'6" ; which he prefers to ride in 2-4 foot surf. "Different boards handle different ways. Size, length, shape, and number of fins determine how a board will respond. If you want the real reason why I've stuck with a single instead of going with the flow, it's because I've never found the right board at the right price. Usually when I find a board that I know is "it" ; I'm broke. And then when I have the cash and go shopping ; I can never find what I want. I've always kept my equipment expenses to a minimum because I had to spend a lot on traveling. It'd be differnt if I didn't have to drive so far. So instead of getting a new board or a wetsuit every season, I'll use the same one and travel to new spots. I've been up and down Jersey's coast a bunch of times, surfed in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida ," Steck explained. Currently, most of Stock's energy is spent surfing in South Jersey. He regularly surfs Long Beach Island , Atlantic City, and Cape May. Steck considers Ocean City, New Jersey, his home break. "I have a lot of good friends down there. That' s where I .do most of my surfing. I like it because I know the crowd and they respect me. Joe, a friend of mine says I've reached the point of being "hot and almost local." That means I don't get hassled by the ' local shredders anymore. I can hold my own," Steck admitted. There is a strict pecking order among surfers . Ocean City has a reputation of being cold, and territorialistic. The locals, though mostly younger kids, will give outsiders a hard time. Steck admitted that it wasn 't easy to learn surfing, and being hassled in the water didn't help matters. continued next issue v International Relations Club Update JOHN MUSONG Voice Contributor "A Host Parent-Foreign Student Association is being formed so that local residents of Bloomsburg and surrounding communities can also benefit from the presence of foreign students on The BU Campus," said Alfred Tambe, International Relations Club (I.R.C.) president, while addressing a meeting of the club Oct. 10, 1984. According to Tambe, the idea of the host family association is not to provide abode 'to foreign students. Rather, the association links foreign students and local families so that they can interact and exchange cultures on a one-to-one basis. "Many of the area residents are unfamiliar with the University and its campus buildings, and activities. To m.any townspeople, their activities do not include the university at all," said Rev. John Lucas of the Bloomsburg Christian and Missionary Alliance Church. ,. Continuing, Lucas said many of the local residents are unaware of the presence of more than 30 international students studying at Bloomsburg University and their desire to participate in cultural exchange with local American citizens. "Consequently, " said Lucas, "when the International Relations Club endeavored to launch a program encouraging the establishment of personal relationships with local residents for mutual learning and understanding between cultures, they-were faced with the dilemma of how to communicate that desire to townsfolk. As one interested in such cultural exchanges, Rev. Lucas offered suggestions and information on the use of public media and community leaders to make known the student's desire to make friends of local citizens. For instance, he suggested that a reporter from the Press Enterprise be contacted for conducting an interview with key international students whereby they could express themselves directly to area residents because of the large coverage area the newspaper enj oys. He added that such an interview could be' highlighted as a human interest story complete with photographs. Rev. Lucas also suggested that since the purpose of the International Relations Club is to inClude 'anypne, American as well as foreign, and local residents as well as students, then meetings of the club could be announced on local radio stations as public service announcements indicating the date, time, and location, so that in- their cultural backgrounds with in most of the Middle East counterested residents- could be in- American friends increased.

KAREN LOMBARDI Voice Contributor "A Thriller of a Weekend" is scheduled for Bloomsburg University's 1984 Homecoming, with events ranging from athletics to dinner dances slated to take place. The "Thriller theme was chosen by the 23 students on the Homecoming Committee because of "the popularity of JMichael Jackson's 'Thriller' video, and the Halloween motif," said Jimmy Gilliland, assistant director of Student Activities and advisor of the Homecoming Committee. "All we hope for is good weather, then we'll be set," said Gilliland. .'' IN 196QTHE PILLGAVE WOMENA NEW FREEDOM.

DARLA DELUCA Voice Contributor You may have seen students around campus lately wearing beenies, carrying pillows, paddles or even bricks, linking arm-in-arm and doing silly pranks. - Who are they? They are the pledges of the 16 social fraternities and sororities on campus functioning under the Inter-Fraternity and Inter-Sorority Councils. Last year there were 1100 Greek students at Bloomsburg University. That is the highest percentage of any. other State University in Pennsylvania. Jennifer Hunt, president of the Inter-Sorority , Council, feels BU has such a high percentage because students seem to like the idea of belonging. In the 1960s, when the first social Greek organizations began, compeition caused more and more Greek organizations to develop. Everyone at BU wanted to be involved. Many freshmen and non-Greeks wonder what inspires students to go through three to seven weeks of pledging to ;later be called a brother or sister. Hunt explained her idea why : "Because people who want be Greek are leaders. Once they start something they do not want to quit. Greeks in general , are people who do not give up and want to be involved. I feel Greeks are a special breed of people.'' '\A lot of organizations on campus, and even sports, are supported by the Greeks. In fact , several past CGA presidents have been Greek including the present one. It seems ^ijf sKi^s^i|^i^#??ll¥^^^ MIKE FEELEY Staff Reporter The Bloomsburg University men's cross country team dropped three last Saturday, as they raced at Mansfield University. Bruce Wells of Mansfield finished first, running a time of 24:41. He was followed by his teammate Sid Rhyant, who ran a time of 24:57. Overall, Slippery Rock won the race, defeating Bloomsburg, Clarion, and Mansfield. SR's Jim Spittal took first for Slippery Rock, finishing third with a time of 25:05. , The other scorers for Slippery Rock were Jeff Wells (25:32) ; Peter Buccino (25 :39) ; Dan McCarthy (25:48) and Steve Lucy (25 :55) ; finishing 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th respectively. The top finisher for the Huskies was Mark Elsasser who finished 19th, with a time of 27 :07. In a real show of determination, BU's Mike Greene ran part of the 4.8 mile course without a shoe. During the race, his shoe was stepped on froni the back and was the leaders are the Greek students," said Hunt. • Bruce Stewart, President of the Inter-Fratenity Council adds, "The Greek system plays an important role in becoming involved in the University." Several freshman and sophomore non-Greek students were asked if they plan on pledging sometime in their college career. Most were Uncertain , but feel a need to get involved in something on campus. The main concern of the students questioned is their fear of lowered grades if they pledge. What may be surprising is ISC and IFC have rules on study hours. Pledges are required to get three study hours per night, Sunday through Thursday, and a minimum of five hours on the weekend. Brothers and sisters of. a Greek organization can not make up their own rules and regulations on hazing which govern the actions of the brothers and sisters," said Stewart. "They must abide by "the rules and regulations of the Council or a Judicial Board action is taken against the organization violating them and punishment is enforced," added Hunt. Non-Greek students wanting to get involved within the University might try pledging. "I recommend everyone to pledge. It is a great opportunity to show what you can do for yourself and reach a potential you never though you could. Sisterhood, to me, is like having my home away from home," said Hunt.
