In an attempt to bring the realities
of death to a personal level, photographer Carolyn Jones will visit the
University to present a lecture and
slide presentation on Feb. 23 at 7
p.m. in the Sloan Auditorium.
Through a series of photographs
entitled Living Proof: Courage in the
Face ofAids, Jones depicts people of
all ages and races in an attempt to
capture the essence of the human
spirit of those who are living with
HIV and AIDS. The focus of her lecture is to inspire and change the way
we think about AIDS.
Through her photographs and stories, Jones hopes to assert the fact
that this disease doesn't discriminate,
but instead looks like, and ultimately
affects all of us. The depiction of
AIDS in Jones' work reflects the belief that the disease does not have to
be viewed as an instant death sentence.

The event will mark the first time

ever that the University has seen the

Phetteplace also believes that to
see death is to remember death. By
experiencing death, we as a society
can only gain a greater respect for
life, and can learn to not "be afraid
to look at one another" because we
are all in this together, said Phct-

teplace.

Those that come to Jones' presentation will also have a chance to win
one of her books filled with the faces
that are represented in her slides,
According to one press release detailing the effects of her presentation,

"these compelling photographs have
the power to profoundly alter perceptions about this disease, and about
how we all live and die."
Jones collaborated with over 70
people who volunteered to pose for
the images.
She hopes to inspire a change in
the way some view AIDS,
She hopes to illustrate the self
confidence and wisdom of ordinary
people coping with the extraordinary
fate, facing their mortality, questioning their priorities and trying to live
life to the fullest.

Concerned for the safety of his fellow students, Student Cooperative Council Senator Kris Dumont broached
the need for a traffic control device to be implemented on
Glenn Road. According to Dumont, people have a tenthe speed limit sign telling drivers not

situation directly because the road is

LOCK HAVEN
An Irish lecturer
whose research has shed light on the
effects of political violence in Northern Ireland will be presenting his
findings in the Hall of Flags on Feb.
22 as part of the University's International Visiting Lecturer Series.
Professor Neil Ferguson, who
will discuss The Effects of 30 years
of Political Violence on the Construction of Ethnic Identity and Inter-Community Relations in Northern Ireland, believes that "Northern
Ireland has suffered a campaign of
sustained ethnic conflict with a generation of children developing physically, psychologically and socially
in a divided society, under the shadow of sectarian and political violence."
A full-time lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the Liverpool
Hope University College in Liverpool, England, Ferguson has found
through his intensive study of the
subject that this type of "cthnopolitical violence" has had a huge impact
on Northern Ireland's social structure resulting in the creation of a
bipolar society with the minority
population identifying themselves as"
Catholics and the majority identifying themselves as Protestants.

to the University's International de-

segregation is the most obvious form

segregation can be found in all

We all know people who claim to
get by on fewer hours of sleep than
the rest of us. President Clinton, for
example, reports that he hits the sack
for only five or six hours per night.
According to researchers, there is a
small percentage of the population
that can thrive on such a stunted
sleep schedule. Those people are
called "short sleepers."
Researchers Are Trying to Help
Audrey Chang of the Washington, D.C.-bascd Better Sleep Council
said she thinks many of these eager
beavers are "just trying to be macho." She said there's a certain
glamour to being up all night and
awake at the crack of dawn, and that
people think they can discipline
themselves to need less sleep. "You
can't train yourself," Chang said.
"How much sleep we need is genetically determined."
The number of sleep clinics in
America has more than tripled in the
past 20 years. Educational, research
and support groups that focus on
sleep issues have also proliferated.
Some are soothing, like the aforementioned Sleep Foundation and
Better Sleep Council; others are

Epsilon arc committed to changing their chapter culture, and will take the steps necessary to ensure that
their organization, as well as the rest of the Greek community, remains viable at MSU."
No single incident triggered the moratorium, but
the broadcast did have an effect on the decision, said
Interfraternity Council President Jason Rosenbaum.
"It had something to do with the Fox broadcast, but that
was only part of it," he said.
Members of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity house
could not be reached for comment. Leaders in the
greek community will use the 30 days to focus on the
greek system's founding values, Molasso said. He said

drinking aired in January used undercover footage taken in Rick's American Cafe, 224 Abbott Road.
WJBK's undercover reporting was not necessarily
unethical, said William McWhirter, who teaches a journalism ethics class at MSU. "I don't put this under the
title of gotcha journalism or ambush journalism,"
McWhirter said. "Every greek house should be on notice and consider themselves fair game."
If the reporter and photographer took steps to alter
the partiers' actions, then the reporting would be considered unethical, he said. "If the Fox crew manipulated the situation or coaxed people underage to drink or
helped to stage the situation, that is not ethical and not
fair game," McWhirter said.
MSU journalism Professor Jim Detjen agreed undercover reporting is not inherently unethical. As long
as the reporter and photographer acted professionally, it
is acceptable, he said. "I don't know if they misrepresented themselves. That can raise ethical questions,"
Detjen said. "If they misrepresented themselves to get
in or broke in illegally, I would have problems with
that. These are critical issues to know about."
Molasso expressed disappointment in the newscast's content. "With the many good things college
students do across the country, it is unfortunate that reporters focus on the negative aspects of the campus

How to Get Better Sleep; Several
factors may be involved.
Stress is perhaps the best known.
Almost every college student has
tossed and turned with worry about
an unwritten paper or an unfinished
problem set. Stress increases heart
rate and blood pressure, raising excitement levels. Students say the
sensation can become almost electric. It can keep a person awake for

fore bed. Both activities temporarily
boost the body's metabolism and
make it harder to sleep.
Other "sleep stealers" include alcohol and caffeine, and experts urge
caution and consultation with a doctor before turning
counter sleeping aids

to over-thelike Melatonin.
What Washington's Deep Pockets

According
Zadra, five to seven percent
of adults report current
problems with nightmares.
Centuries ago, nightmares
were thought to be visitations from evil spirits and
demons. Later, they became
the objects of both Freudian
and Jungian psychoanalysis.
Tricks That Help You
Control Your Dreams
But modern students of
sleep have been working to
develop other ways for
sleepers to control unsettling dreams. One trick:
write down the nightmare
immediately after you
awaken, and then revise,
making whatever changes feel right.
Another technique involves
something called "lucid dreaming,"
loosely defined as being aware that
what you are experiencing is a dream
and not real. "For example," Zadra
said, "if a person is being chased in a
dream we'd tell them to recognize
that they are dreaming and to confront their pursuer. And then do
what? Have a dialogue with them.
Say. "Hey, who are you? Why are
you chasing me?' It works remarkably well."
The point is, it's possible to get a
better night's sleep no matter what
your daytime troubles. Still, the
number one problem, most researchers and educators agree, is that
Americans are indifferent to sleep.
"Those same people who would
never dream of getting behind the
wheel of a car after drinking, think
nothing of driving when they're half
asleep," Chang said. "Sleep should
be though ofas a health issue, part of
what we like to call the Triumvirate
of Health' — exercise, diet and
sleep."
Although it may seem that those
counseling overcommitted college
students to get more sleep are fighting a losing battle, they remain optimistic. "People are starting to take a
look at sleep," said Heidi Wunder of
the National Sleep Foundation.
"We've seen more diagnoses of sleep
disorders recently, and, hopefully, as
we continue our efforts, people's
awareness will continue to increase."

figured my mom would have gone to bed but she was still on the couch letting the
TV watch her and I thought I got in OK.
The next day when she got off of work she informed me of the time that I came

punishment of staying in. Of course I stood there complaining and what happened

When / look around and see all that is happening I see an organization featuring a club as an alternate on select weekends of the semester,
another organization unifying African-American females on campus,
yet another club planning activities to unify all types of cultures, a
Gospel choir singing praises all across the Eastern Seaboard and I see a
strong BSU and Hispanic organization.
When I look around and see all the different programs about culture
and options and whether or not to attend and why, because their is next
week, and oh my God, when I look around and see people interested in
change, keeping things alive for the future makes me just want to holler.
Many might not even see change but when I came in the summer of
1996 I had far fewer options of things to do and people to look up to,
being a minority student looking for covering and someone to give me
direction.
I thank God and give shout outs to those who were here and shed light upon me. They gave
me a little more of the motivation and tire that I have now. So to Chris Franklin, Damien Smith.
Pat Pierre. Doug Oliver and yes Dave Kecnan, I've got to thank them.
They started something that isn't finished yet but is on the way. They opened up doors that
might not have been opened till only a spirit higher above could tell.

The prominent influence of war and conflict on 20th
century art is an intriguing topic, bringing to light the
struggles ol humankind and their impact on the artists of
the time period. According to Professor Chans Bean
Duke, the majority of 20th century artists were inspired to
either create art forms that reflected the complicated
emotions ol war and conflict or to diverge from the traditional portrayal and express opposition
The performance of the Lock Haven University Group

historical events in musical expression.

Williams enjoys spendii

For most people, jewelry is a fashionable accessory denoting personality, but for Mark Williams
jewelry is one manner for him to express his artistic

creativity.
Mark, a senior Fine Arts major and Art History
minor, has a knack for creating all types of jewelry.
He has always had a love for art. Being introI duced to it at a young age. he had the creativity and
the drive to continue his learning in all art mediums.
He says, "it's better to create than imitate." and he
does just that. His creations last semester include
rings, necklaces, pennants, chains, jewelry boxes
and metal sculptures.
May Dyer. Professor emeritus introduced Mark
to various aspects in jewelry making and design.

Shonda Smith
Eagle Eye Features Editor

m

Melinda Hodge, art professor at the university and
teacher of the jewelry class last semester '•brought it
to the next level," according to Mark.
Although there is not a class available this semester enabling him to further explore the jewelry
medium, he took the initiative to continue jewelry
on his own time. Hodge acts as a liaison enabling
Mark to continue working with jewelry by providing
him with materials and instruction.
Hodge said. "Unfortunately there was no possible
way for Mark to take an advanced jewelry class this
semester, but I am glad to see his enthusiasm in the
subject and his desire to continue any way he can "
Most of Mark's pieces are silver but he also uses
brass and copper. He likes to use a technique called
repousse which is shaping or ornamenting metals by
hammering or pressing the metal on the reverse side.
Currently Mark is working on a jewelry box in
the form of a turtle which uses this technique.

Mark uses what Hodge describes as a "simplistic
approach, accentuating that less is more." She said.
"Mark uses clean, classic lines in a diverse manner
to create a nice sense of design."
The jewelry program still has limitations due to
the lack of ventilation in Sloan Fine Arts Gallery.
There must be good ventilation in order to do enameling and casting; two techniques that would help
students like Mark advance to other areas in jewelry. Hodge said that the plan to install a ventilation
system in Sloan is in the making and she is hopeful
that this will occur this summer.
Since this will not be an option for Mark, he will
continue to focus on his fabrication and design techniques, improving his hand-working skills.
Hodge says that Mark is in an exploration phase
where he has seen various capabilities of transformations of metals and is continuing to improve his
works.

Worried About Pal's Porn Problem

Dear Worried

About Pal,
My first question to ask is how often is this happening?
The reason I ask this is because it Ls a very well-known fact that the majority of guys do it, thus making it part ofthe norm.
However, if he falls into the category of a "chronic masturbator" then maybe he does have a problem.
I once knew a kid who would try to see how many times he could do it in one day and then try to beat his record a few days later (he is now
a teacher), With that in mind, maybe this is justa phase he's going through for a variety of reasons. Maybe he is coming out of a relationship

learn).

wookonf
i

1 I also wonder if he gets embarrassed when you walk in on him, because if he doesn't, you may be dealing with a much more complex issue
than "chronic masturbation."
My advice is to tell the kid to put a little sign on the door that notifies you not to enter the room or disturb him.
I'm not suggesting that he write it in bold print, but do something a little more subtle like writing "Busy for a few minutes" (or longer depending on his techniquele). If that doesn't work, don't ever go into his room unless you absolutely have to; like if the house is burning down,
if he doesn't leave his room for that, at least he'll die with a smile on his face.

Aliya Saperstein

(U-WIRE) SEATTLE. Wash.

—

NCAA came out to review the University of Washington's athletic program and render judgment on
whether the UW was in compliance
with the mission of the NCAA, its
goals and rules. Washington passed

and. according to Helen Remick, the
assistant provost for equal opportunity "was given special recognition for
a job well done."
Part of that NCAA certification
process included inquiries into efforts made by thc athletic department

in the realm of minority and gender
equity and "academic integrity."
Remick. who was part of the UW's
self-reporting team, said Washington

was found to be in "substantial conformity" on these issues.
Suggestions were made for future
improvements, however, and while a
commitment to gender and race equity is an ongoing process, several programs have been instituted in the
academic arena since then. These include more access to the UWired system, having laptops on the road for
all athletic teams and initiating prior-

Kario X. Ruiz
Eagle Eye Sports Editor

Brent Trowbridge
Eagle Eye Sports Editor

The men's basketball team tried
the tide of their first conference win ofthc season in an effort to
close out strong, but met with s >me
resistance from both Indiana (L102-73) and California Universities
of Pennsylvania (L-86-68).
The bailers knew they would
have a tough time finishing thc ;eason on a good note as th y had to
face top ranked Indiana last
Wednesday night. Thc Men came to
play and it showed early in this contest as the Bald Eagles were abl to

Indiana turned the tide how »ci.

The Haven managed lo pul together several runs thai brought
them within three (33-30) with less
than five minutes left in the first
frame as Kevin DeVan provided the
long range artillery. Bui the guns fell
silent from there as the Inch.ins
went on an 11-2 run to close out the
half and take a 44-32 lead in to the

break.
The Indians' Dwaync Anthony
set the tone for the second half as he
come out of the locker room and
blazed a three pointer to open the
half.
The rout was on as II'P ra ked
up a 27 point lead five and a half
minutes into the half, bombing its
way to their third 100 point performance of the season behind an impressive 46 percent shooting pei formance from both sides of thc arc for
the game, including a 56 percent
showing (9 of 16) from the far side
in the second half.
The Bald Eagles made several

runs once again but climbed no closer than 17 before finally being

scalped 102-73.
IUP held a passing clinic on the
floor as they put up 29 assist- and
only 15 turnovers. It was a i ither
different story for LHU who only
had 15 assists compared lo then 20
turnovers.

Rico Abbondan/.a led the way
