Kwesi Aggrey, along with his
wife Debbie in the PUB lobby
September 27th. During the
afternoon, faculty, students, and
members of the community
stopped by to meet and welcome the pair.
Dr. Aggrey has brought his
family from New Jersey, where
he was an associate provost at
Kamapo College.
Mrs. Hamiin-Aggrey said.
"He has a lot of experience, and
a genuine interest in helping
people and programs run
smoothly."
Some things are undergoing

LHU, "because of the challenges in a growth mode." Dr.
Aggrey hopes to, "lead the fac-

ulty into the change."
Aggrey said, "I found Lock
Haven University to have a terrific faculty and interesting
research projects, and 1 want to
keep encouraging that."
Dr. Aggrey has been working on these issues of research
and first year experience along
side Dr. Lucille Tabler, associate
professor at LHU
Tabler said. "It has been a
pleasure, he is open-minded,
and he is concerned about students and faculty."
According to Aggrey, he

It is perfectly normal for
students to change their major
or enter college in exploratory
studies. Career Services can
assist students so they feel
comfortable about their indecision and offer various ways
to help them try and get their
careers in check.
One of the programs they
offer is FOCUS. Located on
the web, FOCUS is one of the
top three career planning systems in the United States,
according to the National
Association of Colleges &
Employers. If students are
interested in broadening their
career horizons or in mapping
out their career and educational goals and plans, FOCUS
should be on their to-do list.
FOCUS is a self-paced
guidance tool that assists with
self assessment and career
exploration. It examines students' current career planning
status, their interests, work
values, personality type and
education goals. FOCUS helps
students learn more about
themselves and the work
world.
Students reply to questions
regarding their current career
planning status. Based on their
answers, FOCUS proposes
how students can best use the
system to satisfy their personal career preparation needs
and goals.
Once a student answers

integrity to the university, and
an atmosphere of shared governance. His goals include bringing the student and academic
affairs together. He also would
like to build upon a student-centered administration.
President Miller happily
welcomed the new provost and
gave him some encouraging
compliments.
"He is very student-oriented
and fair. He has an open door
policy," Miller said.
The provost is the chief academic officer of LHU and
stands between LHU's faculty,
staff, and student communities. LbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbV
The provost oversees academic
programs & priorities, ensures
for quality of the faculty, and
maintains educational excellence.

describing their
work values and
skills, FOCUS scores and
summarizes students' results
in their personal profile that
will be used for exploring various occupations.
FOCUS then proceeds to
identify professions that
match students' interests and
value profiles. Students can
analyze occupations that
appeal to them and express
their likes and dislikes about
the significant aspects of each
job.
Finding information about
a specific profession is a useful feature
of FOCUS.
Students can search for information for any occupation
they are curious about.
FOCUS gives a description of
the occupation's duties, earnings, educational requirements, skill demands, work
values satisfactions and outlook for job openings. Also
available is a side by side look
at thc similarities and differences of two different employment options.
Students with only a few
spare minutes a day can benefit from FOCUS as well. It
saves each student's information so they do not have to
start over.

First time FOCUS users
need to create a new account
and the key code is haven.
Once students are in
FOCUS they can choose any
option in the left hand column
from the main menu. In the
right hand column students
can take advantage of their
results, tools available, and
various websites to begin to
put their future in perspective.
Hannah Thompson is a
Peer Career Facilitator and
believes the best aspect of
FOCUS is the personality test
"It matches up careers to
the test. It bases careers on
different aspects of your life
that you may not even think
about," said Thompson.
Sade Graves, a sophomore
at Lock Haven University,
used FOCUS when she was
thinking about changing her
major and recommends students to take advantage of the
program.
"It gives you a lot of ideas
by looking at different
options," says Graves.
FOCUS can be extremely
helpful and is worth the time
students invest in it.
Students are. however,
strongly encouraged to stop by
Akeley 114 or call 893-2181
to set up an appointment with
Joan Welker, Career Services
Director, because FOCUS is
just one of many aids in deciding their future. They should
also bring their printouts from
FOCUS to their appointment.

While many students at
Lock Haven University spent
Family Day with their loved
ones Sept. 24, the women ofthe
PanHellenic Council raised
money to help aid for Hurricane

ities put in their time and effort
and it really showed by the
turnout of individuals we had
that participated. It was rewarding to work with not only the
campus, but thc community as
well."
The baskets prepared were
Longaberger baskets and each
one was individually thcmcd for
Breast Cancer Awareness, entertainment, school items and Lock
Haven University.
Basket Bingo has been a
Family Day event for the past
four years and the PanHellenic
Council is planning on continuing thc program in thc future.
"It was nice to finally see
such a good turnout for Basket
Bingo. All the family members
that attended seemed to enjoy
themselves and helping out with
the program was a lot of fun,"
said Sigma Kappa President
Jenny Charney.
The PanHellenic Council is
looking forward to doing other
types of fundraising events for
the American Red Cross. If anyone is interested in working with
the Greek women please contact

The PanHellenic Council,
which consists of Alpha Sigma
Tau. Sigma Kappa, Sigma
Sigma Sigma and Zeta Tau
Alpha, organized a Basket
Bingo event and invited all families, faculty and community to
come join them. Over $1,000
was raised and donated to thc
American Red Cross.
Over 20 women from the
PanHellenic Council helped get
donations from various businesses in town, put the baskets
together, advertised for the
event and worked the event on
the actual day.
"It was nice to see all the
sororities come together and be
one while raising money for
such an important cause," said

Students express concern over
grades after Hurricane Katrina

BATON ROUGE. La.
Students' concerns are turning to
the effects unexpected stress
will have on their concentration
in class and ultimately their
grades now that the immediate
effects of Hurricane Katrina
seem to be over.

Daniel Camper, petroleum
engineering senior, said his
house was destroyed and pos-

sessions lost in Hurricane
Katrina. Camper, like many others, had displaced family living
with him while he tried to balance school and work. C amper
said he is concerned with how
his grades will be affected for
the semester.
"This was already a do-ordie semester for me." Camper
said. "I am definitely worried,
but it is hard to focus when
you're worried about your
house. One of my parents still
has their job, but even with that
security, it's hard to concentrate."
Camper said the numerous
University class cancellations
pushed tests together, and that
although one of his professors
has shown compassion for
extenuating circumstances, most
professors don't seem to care.
Amy Cavendar, University
wellness education coordinator,
said many Katrina-affccted students who have sought help
from her office have an inability
to concentrate, a lack ofmaterial and financial resources and
general disruption ofplans.
"Common problems affecting college students are feelings
of anxiety, difficulty recalling
academic material, difficulty
sleeping and intrusive thoughts
or worries," Cavendar said.
Cavendar said these symptoms will have a negative effect
on learning because people who
are under stress or are depressed
have a more difficultrime learning.
Common signs of stress
overload include inability to
keep commitments, feelings of
being trapped and apathy for
personal appearance, Cavendar
said.
"These can be signs of a
clinical disorder such as depression or anxiety disorder, and students should contact the Office
of Disability Services to see
may be
available," Cavendar said.
Cavendar said the combination of academic stress, sudden
financial crisis and the uncer-

tainty of the future could be
damaging to any student.
"For some students, school
is their life, so anything that disrupts school can have a disastrous effect...and now they may
be feeling extreme despair or
desperation," Cavendar said.
Mark Grant, University
media management professor,
said he has tried to be lenient
with his students by allowing
some late assignments.
"Maybe I am at fault for it.
but I feel like I have to do that."
Grant said. "When you have fifteen people living at your apartment and your research assignment is due, what's more impor-

tant?"
Grant said his department,
the Manship School of Mass
Communication, sent a letter to
all staff asking them to be as
accommodating as possible to
new students.
Zach Materne, displaced
business management senior
from the University of New
Orleans, had only 20 credit
hours left to complete his degree
before he was forced to evacuate. He said he had hand picked
his teachers and classes before
Katrina hit.
"I was in the home-stretch now I am taking freshman classes." said Materne, who added
that living in a crowded, unfamiliar city adds to his difficulties.
The threat of poor grades
also poses a threat to students
preparing to attend graduate
school. They may not be accepted because ofone poor semester.
Bridget Verret, associate
director ofthe Flores Masters of
Business Program, said the
school is making accommodations for current students but is
unsure how the admissions
board will deal with next year's
incoming students who struggled with grades during this
semester.

"In the long term, it will be a
case-by-case situation." Verret
said.
The
graduate program
accepts approximately 72 students per year, and most are
from Louisiana.
"Most of our current students have lost houses or businesses, and we've met their
needs on an individual basis
offering new night classes and
accepting visiting students,"
Verret said.

Dr. Dongdong Jia recently
received $100,000 in funding
from the Department of Energy
to
advanced
investigate
nanophosphor technology and
its applications in the business
sector.

A significant portion of that
money will support collabora-

tive faculty-student research in
nanoteehnology at Lock Haven
University.
Dr. DongDong Jia. assistant
professor of physics and a member of the university's nanotcch-

nology

group, and

Boston
Technologies, Inc.
(BATI). developed the proposal
which was submitted to the
United States Department of
Small
Energy's
Business
Innovative Research program.
The goal of the Small Business
Innovative Research program is
to encourage and support technology transfer from research
and educational institutions to
small businesses to develop low
cost, high performance energy
saving products for general
lighting purposes. BATI, formerly part of Corning Applied
Technologies, is a leading high-

photovoltaic materials.
Nanophosphors have direct
applications in light emitting
diode (LED) devices, which are
generallyrecognized as thc next
generation sources for lighting
for all types of general illumination. Replacing heat lamps with
LED devices, for example,
could save significant amounts
of electrical energy and billions
of dollars.
The university's funding
will go into developing new
techniques that will make
nanophosphors cost effective in
large scale production while
keeping thc size of the particles

technology company in fiber
parent ceramics, and

to below 20 nanometers to make

"This is a great opportunity
for the Lock Haven Univcrsiiy
Nanotechnology Program and
will encourage more industrial
partnerships in the future." said
Dr. Anura Goonewardcne. associate professor of physics and
nanotechnology coordinator. "It
will allow our students in nanotechnology to get an industrial
perspective during their degree
program and encourage internships with industry before graduation."

OPINION
Way out there

...because deep down you care.

Kristen Buonflglio

Matthew McKeague
News Editor

Nintendo and Doubt and fait
the dating game
Having your heart broken is
like being run over by a million
severely-obese elephants and
then
realizing that each elephant
!
left a big heaping present on top
ofyou.
Wow. that's sure an odd
opening paragraph isn't it? I
once thought I would never have
to deal with being sad from a
broken heart, but recently my
love bug has been sprayed with
a can of Raid and smashed with
a giant Monty Python-esque
foot.
Dealing with a loss such as
this, is almost worse than death.
If you know grandpa has passed
away and can't see you, then
that provokes a bad feeling, but
if you know that grandpa just
doesn't want to see you so he
moved to thc Bahamas to go
spend time with other grandchildren, then it is a lot worse.
Another bad aspect is finally
realizing how great and magnificent of a feeling being with that
special someone makes you feel
and then having it ripped away
from you like people's rights
were in the Patriot Act. The situation lets you experience life at
its best and brightest moments
and then throws you down to its
worse, darkest, deepest realm of
reality. It would be similar to
watching any one of the three

excellent Lord of The Rings
movies and half way through it
turning into some absolutely
cheesy soap opera.
An unfortunate circumstance
that comes along with being in
the lonely heart's club band
involves corny love songs on the
radio. Those songs can eat right
through you in the same vein of
a giant container of acid being
dumped upon oneself. Any song
with the word love in it has the
power to induce tears worse than
cutting onions for 27 hours or
being told you have to sit
through a Pauly Shore movie
marathon without a device to
gouge your eyes out. The same
situation goes with movies too.
Public displays of affection by
other people make you physically sick or emotionally overwhelmed and anybody having
too much fun is instantly considered annoying.
Then, of course, is the
absolutely ridiculous fact that
almost anything can remind you
of your past love. "Oh man, this
is the spot my ex and I had our
first kiss." "There's a cat. my ex
had cats, sniffle." "Is that
cheese on that sandwich
my
ex loved cheese." Even minuscule word phrases or commonly-said references to a former
love can make you feel like

...

adding Jack Kevorkian on your
AIM buddy list.
But of course, I know these
feelings are nothing special or
new. I know these observations
have more than likely been
made before, but maybe this
perspective can help people
know they're not alone
or at
least help myself. Most people
have gone through getting a
piece of them yanked out of
their body, and no, body parts
removed by use of farm equipment don't count. To have an
ounce of optimism, I guess it's
just another life learning experience like putting a hand on a
stove, jamming a fork into an
outlet, or mocking the mafia
because you literally thought
they made people sleep with the
fishes.
Attempting to find love is
like trying to beat the ultimate
boss in a videogame. While you
might keep getting hurt and
repeatedly crushed and maimed,
you'll still keep trying to
achieve what you want because
it's worth it. In the videogame
we call life, a broken heart can
be viewed as experience points
or a level up in 'dealing with
pain' skills that will help you
later, and right now I'm ready

Jesus answered them,
'Have faith in God. Truly I tell
you, ifyou say to this mountain
"Be taken up and thrown into
the sea, " and if you do not
doubt in your heart, but believe
that you will come to pass, it
will be done for you. So I tell
you, whatever you ask for in
prayer, believe that you have
received it, and it will be
yours.
Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that
your Father in heaven may
also forgive you your trespass-

'

How often have you heard
someone around you right
before a test saying "I just
know I'm going to fail this
test. No matter how much I
study I just can't and won't
pass this test. Why bother?"
It's not uncommon for us to
have a negative attitude about

uncommon for us to doubt not
just ourselves, but other people, and even God. All three I
have witnessed at some point
in my life, and even experienced as well.
Doubting is a way of life.
Even Jesus's disciples doubted
at some point during their
lives. No one person can say
that they have not doubted
something in their lives at least
once. I certainly know I have
doubted many things growing
up, especially during my
Christian walk. 1 believe that
it was a special object that I
discovered during my doubting
periods of God that made me

believe and have faith.
Back in 2002, I will admit,
I was an atheist, but I was leaning more towards agnostic
because 1 wasn't sure what to
think about this God that all
my Christian friends were
telling me about.
I was so confused and lost
one night after talking to my
Christian friends about God. I
demanded proof from them
that he was real, and while they

that morning.
I felt the door to my heart
open up as I became convinced
that this flower was truly a sign
from God, the same one I had
asked for when I asked for
proof of him the night before.
Faith was taking its course
inside me.
Having faith in something
or someone is essential in
order to survive the things that
are thrown at us each day.
Take the school test example;
if we doubt ourselves that we
will not do well on the test
instead of being faithful and
confident, we wiil do poorly.
It is just a matter of how we
perceive things and our attitude towards it.
The important thing to
always remember is that God is
always with us no matter what.
If we need a helping hand or

proof that they saw to me, I
was still dissatisfied. Finally,
one my friends pulled me aside
and told me to pray to God for
him to show me the proof that
I was looking for. I had nothing to lose, so I thought "why
not?"
So I prayed that night to
God asking for proof of his
existence. I was extremely
doubtful that something would
happen, and when I kept hearing just silence after asking for
proof, 1 gave up and went to
bed angry and still doubtful.
The next morning when I
got up, I took care of my usual
tactics I did in the morning
every school day. It was the
beginning of January and I can
remember it being extremely
cold outside when I stepped
out my front door to catch the
bus.
I got about a quarter of a
ways down my driveway when
I saw something lying on the
blacktop. When I looked closer, I saw that it was a dried yellow flower in perfect condition. Not only that, when I
picked it up and held it close to
me, I smelled a sweet scent
coming off of it.
1 knew how cold it was outside, and I didn't remember it
being windy at all the night
before. But I didremember the
prayer I prayed the previous
night asking for proof of God's
existence.
"Could this flower be a
sign from God?" 1 wondered.

doubt is near, all we have to do
is ask.
Another thing to remember
is that God doesn't always
grant us what we ask for right
away. To this day I am uncertain as to why God went to the
distance of giving me this
physical sign that I asked for,
but I know that he will not
always give us physical signs
or give us exactly what we
want. If we pray for a car for
our sixteenth birthday, chances
are He probably won't give us
that.
1 still have the flower that
God sent mc sitting on my desk

Your guess is as good as mine.
But 1 was shocked at what I
was seeing and smelling.
Seeing the bus coming I

here in my dorm room. And it
still gives off that same sweet
scent as strongly as it did when
I found it. I find myself hold-

took the flower down the end
of my driveway, set it by a
bush, and left for school.
During that whole day I
couldn't get that dried flower
out of my mind. It was pretty
windy outside that day also, so
I figured, on the bus ride home,
that the flower had blown
away. But when I got off the
bus that afternoon, I looked by
the bush, and it was still in the
same spot where I had left it

ing it whenever I am doubtful
of God or myself or whatever
the case may be. And it helps
give me faith that things will
be okay and that God is always
there for me when I need him.
So have faith, both in yourself and in the Lord; for the
Lord is good, and since he was
the one who created you and
loves you more than anyone in
the world, you must also be
good as well.

Law enforcement serving injustice

On
Saturday
night.
September 24, Irssy Perez.,
Nelson Diaz and [, were on our
way back to the dorms from
celebrating Irssy's 21st birthday at Olive Garden in
Williamsport.
As Perez drove down
Fairvicw at 8:52 P.M., a large
raccoon jumped out onto the
street. She tried not to hit the
animal and swerved into
incoming traffic. Then the car
jerked back going into the right
lane. The car then jumped over
onto the sidewalk going toward
a house, hitting a pillar of the
porch. Perez held on to the
wheel and turned it so as not to
go into the house. If she had
not turned the wheel, the car
would have gone into the large
tree next to the house. The car
ran over an iron fence and
stopped at the ROTC's pull-up
pole.
1 would like to make it clear
NO alcohol consumption was
involved in the accident.
Thc accident all happened
in a matter of seconds. Shaken
by the whole incident, we were
lucky to have gotten out of the
accident without any physical
harm. Some students at the
Rugby house saw the accident
happen, so they called the
police immediately and came
over to make sure we were
unhurt. The police arrived

shortly afterwards. Right away
the blame was put on Perez, not
a word of, "Are you alright?"
Officer Jim Bathurst (badge
#6) started being rude to us.
They pulled each of us to the
side and questioned us. Perez
and Diaz stated that they saw a
large raccoon in the road.
Officer Bathurst laughed at
Perez when she told him it was
a large raccoon. I did not see
the raccoon because I was
sleeping and woke to Nelson
yelling. "Watch out!" The students watching the accident
mentioned they also saw a
large raccoon.
The officer also was arguing with me about calling
AAA, telling me 1 didn't know
my insurance company and
yelled at me, saying, "I don't
care what you do. 1 already
called a tow truck. It will be
four hours till AAA gets here,
but do whatever the hell you
want to." Nelson, with my camera at hand, started to take pictures of the incident. Officer
Bathurst yelled over to him and
ridiculed the fact that he was
taking photographs, but truth
be told in an accident, taking
pictures is generally advised. 1
guess Officer Bathurst forgot
that bit oftraining.
Later Monday, Perez went
to get a copy of the accident
report. In the report it was stated that she and others mentioned the animal was an opos-

sum. I clearly heard Perez and
others mention a large raccoon,
but then again raccoons and
opossums must be one and the
same. The report also had my
name spelled wrong, when the
officer read it off my license.
Perez pointed out the mistakes to correct records, so
Officer Bathurst came over and
again gave her his attitude and
told her that isn't what was
said. Officer Bathurst was
clearly lying, but Perez kept a
calm demeanor and tried to
explain the problem, but he
wouldn't hear any of it stating,
"I'm not rewriting the report!
You smashed into someone's
porch and you actually think
I'm going to correct the report
for you?"
Perez explained, "I felt, like
since the day of the accident,
he was very rude to my friends,
and to me. He wants the playby-play of what happened but
then gives us attitude. I went to
check the incident report on
Monday and even then he got
hostile." By Perez's report, she
simply asked him questions
that could have been answered
but instead he said things that
made her feel like she had no
rights.
"He is a part of the justice
of the peace office, and I felt
the opposite from him." Perez
said. "When I asked my questions, he said he wasn't going to
correct the report and walked

away saying he was done wasting his time on us."
Jordan Snedeker, a senior of
Criminal Justice hoping to
become a police officer was
there with Perez during the
conflict with Officer Bathurst.
He said. "During this stressful
time for Frssy, this officer's
nasty and combative attitude is
not helping anything. At the
very least, Irssy deserves a bit
of common respect, just like
the rest of the community. She
was asking simple questions
that warranted simple answers,
but that was not what she got."
He continued, "As a police
officer, one must possess excellent public relation skills,
which seems to be exactly what
this officer is lacking. I am disgusted and appalled with the
way this officer is handling this
situation; he is an embarrassment to the department."
Perez talked to the chief on
Monday, October 3rd. The
chief helped her by correcting
the report. Also, the chiefapologized for the way his officer
acted and said that he would
talk to Officer Bathurst.
This is not the first time students and faculty have c6mplained about the Lock Haven
Police. A good amount ofLock
Haven's economy comes from
students, so the police should
be considerate when dealing
with the University community.

SCUPA Negotiations: A different view
To the Editor:
As a SCUPA (State College
University
Personnel
Association) member and a
proud alumna of Lock Haven
University, 1 feel the need to
write to remind fellow union
members,
Lock
Haven
University ofPennsylvania, the
Pennsylvania State System of
Higher Education, Lock Haven
community members and students of the main issues and
concerns behind our contract
negotiations. I also hope to
help others better understand
the role of resident directors
and professionals in the field of
Student Affairs and Residence
Life.
As many of you are already
aware, SCUPA members are
facing contract negotiations.
There are several issues on the
table, but the main issue that I
want to focus on is the outsourcing factor.
The PASSHE (Pennsylvania
State System of Higher
Education) is proposing a
clause in our contract that says
they may outsource our positions. This would mean that a
private organization would
come into our residence halls to
provide the same type of services that we as professionals currently provide.
The services we currently
provide include counseling
with students on various issues
and concerns, mediation, crisis
intervention, program planning,
administrative tasks, supervision of all student staff who
work in our halls, ensuring

safety security of all students,
providing an academic environment and maintaining the general upkeep ofthe building.
I am a young professional to
the field of Student Affairs and
Residence Life and a member
of SCUPA. My experiences in
thc field began as an undergraduate student at Lock Haven
University. I came to Lock
Haven because ofthe quality of
education I knew I could
receive here. The residence
halls were clean, the resident
assistants and resident directors
were helpful, available and
knowledgeable. Lock Haven
quickly became home; a place
of comfort and a place 1 called
home.
I was comfortable here
because there were people in
my residence hall who cared
about me as an individual and a
student. My resident assistant
offered me support and understanding when I was homesick,
my resident director provided
his resident assistants with
training and knowledge of student issues and concerns and
ensured safety and security
throughout my hall.
As a junior I became one of
those resident assistants who
were then making a difference
for the lives of students. My
resident director taught me
assertiveness techniques and
how to establish a respectful
community on my wing. I
found this role to be one ofthe
most valuable educational
experiences ofmy college education because those interper-

sonal and leadership skills and
assertiveness techniques are
skills and abilities I use today.
My resident director made a
difference in my life.
Why do I tell you all of this?
To me, our ongoing contract
negotiations and the proposed
outsourcing clause, isn't about
my job and whether or not I will
have one next year, it's about
the future ofhigher education at
Lock Haven University and the
lives of the young adults who
will be students at this wonderful university. We offer something special here at Lock
Haven. It's something that I
have not found at any other university. 1 have experienced it as
a student and now as a professional. We care about our students and we look after them
because we want to. Students
come here because they know

and that they will receive a
quality education in and out of
the classroom. Why take that
away from them?
I feel very fortunate to work
at Lock Haven University
where the violence is almost
non-existent, where the drug
use is at a minimum compared
to other universities, and where
students are eager to be leaders
on campus. As professionals
educated in the field of Student
Affairs, we work hard to edu-

quality professionals managing
them because, I am certain that
professional resident directors
develop students and provide
them with skills and values that
they can carry with them
throughout their lives.
This past August we (the
Residence Life staff) received
an email from a parent expressing his gratitude to our staff for
the help and courtesy our staff
provided him and his daughter
on opening day. He expressed
how thankful he was to us all
for our help and understanding.
That is why we do the work we
do... to make a difference to our
students and their families and
to give them quality services.
As an alumna I want to see parents feel relieved that their
child is going to LHU. As a
professional
working
in
Residence Life, I truly believe
that no other organization can
provide students with the services and support that we currently provide them.
Through my experiences as
a student and professional, I
hope you can see the importance of these negotiations.
Please keep our students and
community in mind. I ask for
your support and understanding
of the impact these negotiation

To the Editor:

were becoming overwhelmed.
She told President Bush she had
all that was needed. It was
Wednesday until she asked for
40,000 troops. She then excused
her actions to act late by acting
as a victim, "Nobody told me
that I had to request that, I
thought that I had requested
everything they [Feds] had. We
were living in a war zone by
then."
I am going to pause here in
order for you to run to a tissue
box. This poor lady failed to act
fast, because...*sniffle*...she
didn't know how to perform her
duties ofgovernor. I bet the dead
and stranded of New Orleans
sympathize with her as well.
Weil when someone dared to be
cold and evil, like a Republican
is, she had another stellar
answer. Can anyone guess?
Yes, you are correct, it was
Bush's fault!!! That evil man
sent troops over to a war her
party hates and that isthe reason
she couldn't' get enough
National Guardsmen in New
Orleans. It was not because she
didn't know how to ask for other
states to help in donating
National Guardsmen until New
Orleans looked like a sight out
ofFallujah.
President Bush could have
enacted the Insurrection Act,
which allows the president in
times of unrest to command
active-duty forces into the states
to perform law enforcement
duties. Bush did not do this for
three main reasons. First, advisors said that Governor Blanco
would have resisted surrendering control to Bush. Second, the
political fallout would have been
great if Bush kicked a woman
governor from the south out of

control ofthe situation pre-emptively. Can you imagine the vultures on that story? Everything
that could have gone wrong
would be magnified 100 times
and there is also the issue of
Bush thinking a woman is not
able to handle a crisis and thenbeing accused of being sexist
would have surfaced in the liberal media oftoday. I don't think a
woman would have trouble handling a crisis, I think a liberal
Democrat would.
The third issue may be the
most pertinent to us. Would you
want a president from either
party to be able to use the
Insurrection Act whenever a
"crisis" appears? What will constitute a major crisis being heroically battled by the leader of
our country or a power hungry
human from abusing the Act?
The Insurrection Act was last
invoked in 1992 for the L.A.
riots, but at the request of the
Californian Governor, Pete
Wilson. Before that, it was
invoked in the civil rights era,
and then before that, the Civil
War. I myself am glad Bush
relented from using the
Insurrection Act.
I think as time passes, this
incident will be significant, but
not a crisis as the media portrays
it. I hope that this liberal complaining and bickering will
cease in order to help the people
in need. Let's just hope the liberals can take part in rebuilding
New Orleans and not want to
pull out and have Hillary call for
a withdrawal plan from the
harsh
marshlands
of
Southeastern Louisiana.

'Devotional' doesn't
honor diversity
To the Editor:
I am writing to complain about the inclusion of a column entitled "The Weekly Devotional." Why, at a state university that
emphasizes honoring diversity must I and others be subjected to a
religious article?
I found it really offensive to read an article that addresses an
issue of real concern, namely the disaster in New Orleans, but
couches the issue in a Christian context.
I am not a "brother in Christ" and I am far from the only nonChristian here. It seems to me that such a column has no place at a
university like this. It basically EXCLUDES many students and faculty on campus.
I hope you will decide to make your publication a secular one as
it should be and truly honor diversity!!

To the Editor:
There's no doubt hurricane
Katrina is one of the most horrific natural disasters this country has ever seen, but to turn it
into a political and racist issue is
absurd if you ask me. During a
celebrity driven telethon rapper
and producer Kayne West took
advantage of live television to
say that "President Bush doesn't
care about black people." To
say the president of the United
States doesn't care for a race of
people is inaccurate and immature.

against the president. Kayne
West's ignorance only strengthened my negative view of
celebrities. Perhaps the spotlight
went to their heads but to go on
television to enforce their left
slanted views is an abuse of
power.
What is the young black
community supposed to think?
Should they think it's right to
use derogatory words like the
ones that West's number one

fueled with? Is that OK to

Homecoming came and went, and anyone that
was anywhere new campus could tell that it was a
weekend to remember, if even in bits and pieces,
streets were strewn with bottles and cans;
scorched tables and chairs littered the yards, and
walks ofshame were taking place as far as the eye
could see.
what was thc reason for these displays of
debauchery and hooliganism' you ask? Was it the
influx of alumni returning to relive their glory
days?
Sure, you could argue that it might have been
a contributing factor, but the fact ofthe matter i
that the success of the Lock Haven football team
served as a catalyst to what turned out to be an
awesome weekend.
was great to see the university community
come out to support a Lock Haven sports team.
The big school atmosphere needs to surround
more of our sporting events. If you were to look
just 30 miles down the road at Penn State, you
would see how the sporting events bring the community togethcr. They tailgate. They roam the
streets. They get rowdy. They arc thc definition of

w

spirit to everyone that cares. We needed more oil
that here, and this weekend we got it.
Lock Haven actually did feel like a big scho<
Everywhere you looked people were out in th(
yards or on theirporches, barbequing and going
the game to get rowdy.
The football team played great and the far
were even better. We have all been to gamt
where the opposing team has more fans in th
stands than we do and to tell you the truth it is
little disappointing.
We do need to support our teams. We do
to be hooligans. We do need to be loud.
This Saturday the football team
Shippensburg and as always, your support is
ed.
So do some tailgating. Do whatever it is y
have to do, but show up and show Ship that we
have some Haven pride, and we're not just sor

One Hit Wonder?

mmmmm

Dan Blackmore
Guest Writer
The Click Five is a brand
new pop group out of Boston
Massachusetts. You may have
heard their single "Just The
Girl" which seems to be on a
constant rotation on MTV2. It is
about as catchy as a cold in winter and you will have the chorus
stuck in your head for a few
days.
The band has already been
featured in Entertainment
Weekly with a 5-page article,
which is very impressive for a
brand new band.
The members of the group
look like they are straight out of
the 60s, sporting Beatles haircuts and matching suits.

They

have been doing very well for

thc time that they have been out,
but they have not been making
that much buzz through word of
mouth.
Not many people actually
know who they arc, but can recognize the song they sing. This
is one of the many signs of a one
hit wonder.
Though their single, "Just
The Girl" does have a really
nice melody, it is also very
generic. It is the type of "one
liner" songs where you can sing
the main part of the chorus and
then you just sort of hum the
rest.

The full record is not that

Paul Stanley, the singer of
Kiss actually helped The Click
Five write the song "Angel to
You, (Devil to Me)", and from
the sounds of that, even a rock
and roll legend couldn't help
them out much.
The band may be able to
push out a couple more hits and
milk the album for another year,
but. in my opinion, they are not
special enough to make an
impact in music history.
The Click Five is your typical pop rock band that throws a
hit out of the blue then quickly
fades away.
If you enjoyed Fountains of
Wayne and Milli Vanilli than

much to talk about either. It
sounds like they wrote one big this band is for you. If you did
song then just cut it into little not then f suggest you simply
pieces to fill up the time they enjoy the single while it still has
needed to release their one good some life on TV.

show. What happened, though,
was anything but normal.
The turnout for the show
was almost a full house and
most of the homecoming court
was sitting in the audience.
Damian started the show by
hypnotizing the entire audience. He had the audience stick
their hands together by focusing between two fingers and
squeezing them together.
When Damian asked for
volunteers he had people rush
the stage. Students went rushing to the stage. Some people
were even climbing on top of
each other to get into a chair.
Eventually, 21 volunteers lined
up in chairs across the stage all
side by side.
The hypnotist started to
relax the volunteers and put
them to sleep. When he first
woke the students up, he had
them play their favorite instruments under their chairs. They
rocked away, most of them
playing drums and guitar. Some
volunteers were out of their
chairs playing air guitar. A look

of confusion went across the
faces of the volunteers when
they were snapped back into
reality.
Damian then convinced the
volunteers that they were freezing cold and some ofthem huddled together for warmth. He
then convinced them that they
were so hot that some volunteers took clothing off.
Damian then put them to
sleep again. When they woke
up this time, he had given them
an imaginary cigarette filled
with different kinds of paraphernalia. As a song by Afro
Man played in the background,
the volunteers were urged to
pass the cigarette around
between them. After their
"high" kicked in, they all began
to laugh and some people started to fall out of their chairs.
After this some of the volunteers left the stage.
This left roughly 15 volunteers onstage. They were then
put sleep once again. They
woke up and Damian had them
play with an imaginary hamster.
He then kicked it into the
audience and watched all of the
volunteers get angry and upset.
He encouraged the volunteers
not to hurt him or get up from
their chairs which sent the
audience into laughter.

After putting them to sleep
once again, the volunteers
woke up as hungry monkeys.
Damian told them that the audience had bugs in their hair.
Soon after, the volunteers
jumped off the stage into the
audience digging in people's
hair trying to eat the bugs.
He also had some students
dancing and singing to Britney
Spears and as Chinese superstars.
Damian also put on a mock
Jerry Springer show. He had
some of the guys thinking that
they were Chippendale's
dancers giving audience members lap dances. The twist was
the girls in the audience looked
like men, and the men in the
audience looked like hot
women.
He then convinced the volunteers that they were driving
intoxicated and got pulled over
by the cops. Damian pretended
that he was the cop. Some of
his other stunts included convincing the volunteers that they
were porn stars.
The audience's applause
after the show was long and
loud for the success ofthe hypnotist.

opportunity to participate in a
mini pie eating contest. While
each crew moved in and out of
the spotlight the crowd cheered
with immense enthusiasm.
Some would say that a few were
a little more excited than others.
"I had some kid standing
next to me screaming the entire
night," said Sacha Wolf, a Lock
Haven junior. "At first it was
really annoying, but then it was
funny, and eventually everyone
around him joined in because it
seemed that yelling and shouting was the thing to do at a pep

The jubilant atmosphere surrounding the event became
magnified when the fireworks
took center stage. The onlookers gazed at beautiful reds, blues
and greens illuminating the sky
and casting shadows on the

gaze was distracted from the

Airbands Rock the Haven
Adam Roberts
Guest Writer
Price Auditorium played
host to five of Lock Haven's
bravest bands as they took the
stage on Wednesday night for a
truly unplugged concert as part
of Homecoming Week's Battle
ofthe Air Bands.
The masked air bagpiper
who asked to only be identified
by his stage name, "Theodore
Ruxpin", took home the $300
cash prize as well as the rights to
a float in Friday's homecoming
parade.
Throughout the show, MC's
Dan Woznisky and Jason Barry
energized the crowd by throwing homecoming t-shirts and
keeping the fifty plus fans in the
action. Woznisky and Barry also
performed an electrifying rendition of "I Believe in a Thing
Called Love" by the Darkness.

The two MC's somehow managed to keep an amazingly high
level of intensity and comedy
through the entire song. Their
performance earned them third
place honors from thc panel of
three judges.
The first act ofthe night, and
runner-up, was the 2005
Homecoming Court. The court
put on a stunning rendition of
"Walk this way", by RUN
DMC/Aerosmith. The air version ofthe video came complete
with a breakaway wall and even
the famous two-step. The crowd
seemed to really enjoy the performance and it was a great way
to start the show.
When the night's big winner.
Theodore Ruxpin, took the stage
and was met by laughter and
cheers even before he began.
The one-man bagpiper, flutist,
and singer had the crowd chuckling from start to finish.
Ruxpin, who donned a kilt and

Scottish mask, played a bagpipe
and flute medley that ended
with the introduction to Celine
Deon's "My Heart Will Go On."
The crowd clearly enjoyed
the medley as did the judging
panel that awarded Ruxpin the
$300 cash prize. He was a gracious winner but removed his
mask only after the crowd disWhen asked how he felt
about his victory in the Battle of
the Air Bands, Theodore Ruxpin
simply replied with a smile, "It
feels righteous."
The three winners did
not attain this recognition without a fight. The renditions of

"Feed My Frankenstein" and
"Pour Some Sugar On Me" also
impressed the crowd and the
judges. The performances were
thrilling and the crowd enjoyed
every bit of it. Congratulations
to all involved, the Battle ofthe
Air Bands was a big success.

Student Happily Lives in World of Fantasy
Matthew McKeague
News Editor
LHU freshman
Bryan
Gentzyel wakes up every morning before most college students
are even thinking about hitting
the snooze button as he prepares
for a day full of casting magic
spells, fighting goblinsand other
foul creatures, bartering with
merchants, visiting blacksmiths,
and speaking in old English.
His passion in life is to surround himself with everything
related to medieval fantasy, and
he starts his days at 6:30 a.m. by
reading pages of books full of
dragons, dwarf warriors, and
damsels-in-distress, alone on a
bench between Stevenson
Library and Robinson.
Seemingly pulled from the
very times of ole he imagines
himself in, the towering Bryan,
at nearly seven feet with flowing
hair dangling to his back,
appears as a gentle giant. His
unexpressive face looks as if it
was chiseled like as a statue
when he stares into the pages of
a recently-started 800-page
book.
"If no one is around and I
have no homework, then I'm
reading." Bryan said, "Fantasy
can take me out of this sometimes awful world and let me
imagine an ideal world filled
with adventure and fun times."
Long-time friend Benjamin
Fanning cannot understand how
Bryan reads so much and gets
deeply involved into his books,
but said he likes him anyway.
Ben said that it's hard to
catch Bryan at a time he's not
reading.
"Bryan often talks about fantasy books he has read and he is
always reading a different one, it
seems, each time I see him,"

Ben said.
Bryan's craving for this
medieval fantasy world is done
not only through his readings of
"The Sword ofTruth" and 'The
Lord of the Rings," but also
from fantasy movies, playing
medieval role-playing video
games, drawing art of mythical
creatures, physically making
clothing ofthe era, and going to
nearby Renaissance fairs where
he can meet others like himself.
"1 like everything associated
with fantasy.
I like the
swords, the dragons, and the
castles because fantasy allows
my imagination to be set free,"
he said.
The now 18-year-old Bryan
has lived in Lock Haven his
whole life and first delved into
the vast fantasy universe at
around 4 years old when his
mother introduced him to a
Nintendo Entertainment System
video game called Dragon
Warrior.
"I was an only child so I
would sit there, watch, and be
drawn into it because there were
scary monsters in the game and I
could kill them," said Bryan,
adding, "It was the first game
that I ever saw with swords and
fantasy stuffwhere the monsters
died."
He spent hours on that game
collecting weapons, powering
up his characters, and trying to
discover the enemies' weaknesses, but he never considered it an
obsession until years later.
"Another large step into this
obsession was when my fourth
grade teacher had a medieval
unit in her class where she took
us to the Renaissance fair and
taught us all kinds of random
facts about the time," Bryan
said.
After learning tidbits of
information about medieval

Fantasy enthusiast, Brian Gentzyel, takes a break from his usual activity of reading on campus.
times, he started reaching out to
other friends to see if they
shared the same interests. To his
luck they did, and a group of
four or five ofhis friends would
get together on a weekly basis to
play Dungeons and Dragons, a
cult classic role-playing game of
the imagination.
"Almost every nerd, geek, or
social misfit has played
Dungeons and Dragons. It's a
great activity to have fun with
that's a combination between a
board game and a story," Bryan
said, and that he and his friends
spent Friday nights enjoying the
jokes and friendly banter
1

involved with the fantasy tales.
When he and his
friends cannot get together,
Bryan has another option to
escape reality through the
Internet playing an online multiplayer video game Runescape.
"It's a free online game

and then making it into an armor
to sell and make money," he
said, adding that playing the
game is such a waste oftime, yet

world is fun.
The best fantasy world
to Bryan is that of the
Renaissance fair where he can
actually see what an actual town
would look like from medieval
days. The little town with weathered roads scarred with the
marks ofbuggies, carriages and
horses, roofs made ofrecentlydetached twigs and crispy-dry
straw, and handmade intricacies
in all the craftwork from the carpenters who added their own
personal touches seems like it's
thriving with livestock, jousting
duels, and townsfolk.
Bryan said he liked the

friendly atmosphere where anybody is welcome, and how it is a
gathering for weirdand odd people with similar interests that
dress up to attend the fair.
"So the only odd people
there are the people who don't
dress up," he said, adding that he
and his friends have been to the
Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire
near Lancaster over six times.
While Bryan doesn't go in
full garb, he does try to look like
he comes from that era not only
at the fair, but throughout every
aspect ofhis life.
