Dr. Kreiger Heads
Panel Discussion
D r . M y r r l Krieger, a faculty
m e m b e r of the art d e p a r t m e n t ,
recently headed a panel discussion at Penn State University.
T h e College A r t E d u c a t i o n
G r o u p and T h e Pennsylvania
A r t E d u c a t i o n Association m e m bers, which included b o t h elem e n t a r y and secondary school
teachers, were present for t h e
panel.

In t h e year 1960, the n a m e of Lock H a v e n State Teachers'
College was changed t o Lock H a v e n State College. T h e reason behind this change was the new educational idea t h a t the state of
Pennsylvania was t a k i n g responsibility for c h a n g i n g state teachers'
colleges i n t o multi-purpose schools. T h e c u r r i c u l u m in these colleges would not be limited to teacher education.
A s t u d e n t at Lock H a v e n State College can n o w take prep a r a t o r y work for later s t u d y in t h e fields of medicine, law, dentistry, and most other professions. T h e student can also take all
of his undergraduate studies in preparation for a career in the teachi n g profession.
Lock H a v e n State College is accredited b y t h e Middle A t l a n t i c
State Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. In accrediti n g a school the Association evaluates all educational facilities and
instructors. T h e school is accredited as a whole, not by particular
departments.
T o be accredited b y t h e association means t h a t t h e school is on a
p a r w i t h the other colleges t h a t are accredited. T h e school is n o t
rated w i t h the other schools according to a high-low system. T o be
accredited also means t h a t credits from Lock H a v e n can be transferred t o any other accredited school, provided t h a t the student does
n o t make a change in c u r r i c u l u m . Graduates from Lock H a v e n
m a y also enter graduate schools as long as their grades are of a
standard set b y the school t h a t t h e y wish to enter.
Lock H a v e n State College is an accredited institution of higher
education. As such, t h e accredidation includes all departments and
instructors.

T h e result of a recent S.C.C.
meeting initiated active plans
for a new S t u d e n t Union Building. A s t u d e n t union c o m m i t tee was appointed including U t e
Kerner, Rosemary Dasbach, Mike
Williams, Barry Headings, t h e
chairman of t h e committee, and
Mr. H u r w i t z , the advisor. This
committee will be travelling t o
o t h e r colleges such as G e t t y s b u r g , Dickinson, Muhlenburg,
Lycoming and Shippensburg, t o
observe their unions. T h e p u r pose of this is to avoid making
t h e same mistakes other colleges
h a v e made and t o take from the
unions of other colleges any good
ideas to be incorporated into our
o w n union.
T h e proposed location of the
building is a site behind U l m e r
Hall.
T h e building will also
have regular closing hours.
Included in the building will
be the student offices such as the
Praeco, Eagle Eye, and S.C.C.
O t h e r areas will include the book
store, meeting rooms, and a m u l ti-purpose room rented under t h e
Snack Bar.
Facilities will include pool tables, ping-pong
equipment, a stereo set and possibly a bowling alley.
A tentative completion date is
scheduled w i t h i n t w o years. It
is u p to the students and trustees to organize t h e b u i l d i n g
w i t h the $500,000.00 allocated
for this project. Student opinion
is welcomed and should be directed t o t h e S.C.C. Representatives, Greek Letter Societies,

Art Class Plans
Interesting Trips
Every semester t h e members
of the art classes on campus are
going to take a trip to N e w
York to visit places of interest.
This semester's group will leave
for N e w Y o r k C i t y on Friday
morning, December 4 and will
r e t u r n the following S u n d a y
evening.
A m o n g t h e places of interest
to art students which are to be
visited are T h e Metropolitan M u seum of Modern A r t , T h e G u g genheim Museum, T h e Cloisters,
and the c h u r c h of Saint John the
Divine or Saint Patrick's C a t h edral. There will be free time
granted to t h e students for t h e
purpose of visiting any particular places which are of special
interest to them.
This group is presently considering a t r i p t o P i t t s b u r g h n e x t
semester in order to visit F r a n k
Lloyd W r i g h t ' s
Kauffmann
home.
This trip would be a
one-day excursion.
Students are also reminded
t h a t on the second floor of t h e
new classrooms building there is
a new art display. This exhibit
i n c l u d e s paintings, sculpture,
and jewelry from Millbrook A r t
Gallery.
A n y student w h o is interested
in going on either of the excursions planned b y the art group
should contact D r . Kreiger of
the art department.
Contacts
should be m a d e as soon as possible. A t that time students will
be informed as to the fees and
o t h e r arrangements that are
necessary.
A n y student of the college is
eligible to attend these trips.
Those now having art courses
are especially urged t o go.

H e said t h a t children see m a n y
things which g o on in t h e world.
T h e y do n o t understand m a n y
things. T h e y m a y develop prejudices toward certain peoples in
light of w h a t they have seen.
H e continued stating t h a t t h e
children deserve t o have class
discussions and units of c u r r e n t
s t u d y devoted t o the national
election, the racial riots in Philadelphia, the t a x c u t , and t h e
" d e m o r a l i z a t i o n " of o u r c o u n try.
These are as real as t h e
bomb that t h e Red Chinese exploded and t h e job from w h i c h
Kruschev was removed w h i c h
are usually discussed in c u r r e n t
events periods in schools. These
"controversial" topics are as i m p o r t a n t t o citizenship t r a i n i n g as
the " b i g ' news of the week. H e
concluded his t a l k with a h u m orous and i n f o r m a t i v e survey of
the various types of teachers and
schools in America.

As a living memory to
Betty Jean Conway, the
Betty Jean Conway M e m orial Fund has been innovated to provide academic
scholarships to needy students. Dr. Bone, Dean of
Student Affairs, r e p o r t s
that the f u n d is steadily
growing.
A n y donations
from students, faculty, a d ministration, or friends will
be welcomed. The donations are being accepted
through Dr. Bone's ofFice.

Student Affairs

THE EAGLE EYE

There are t h r e e procedures
which a s t u d e n t should follow
to make his o w n personal ideas
or complaints k n o w n t o t h e administration or the student body.
T h e first, and p e r h a p s the
most reasonable, is t h r o u g h the
S.C.C. It is n o t necessary t h a t
these, we shall call them ideas,
be presented t o the S.C.C. by a
representative. O n the c o n t r a r y ,
ideas presented second h a n d , lack
the motivation t h e y would have
were they presented first hand.
Few students reahze, and none
take advantage of the fact t h a t
anyone and everyone can express
an opinion at an S.C.C. meeting.
A substantial n u m b e r of students are afraid to say w h a t is
on their mind for fear of becoming "Marked M a n ; " marked b y
those students and administrators
who would take offense t o their
statement.
This is where t h e
second procedure comes i n t o being . A n y s t u d e n t w h o wishes t o
express an opinion w i t h o u t automatically a t t a c h i n g his n a m e
can simply p u t his opinion on
intramural basketball teams have
been averaging .500. T h e Aces
have w o n all their games t o date
and the Bomb Squad has been
caught on t h e short end of the
scoring column every game. R o n
" P o g o " Miller and Pat " H e p "
Hepinger have been i n s t r u m e n t a l
in t h e Aces' success.
SIGMA KAPPA
T h e Sisters of Sigma Kappa
pledged the following new m e m bers: Bonnie C a r t r i g h t , Margie
Husted, J u d y Miller, N a n c y
Sheerer, Shirley Giza, B o n n i e
Dory, Connie Shoemaker, Gloria

Volk. Pledge p i n n i n g ceremonies
were held on Monday, N o v e m b e r
2, 1964, the pledges having been
capped when their bids were accepted.
Mrs. Paul Klens, a prospective
alumnae initiate of EK, will soon
be our new advisor.
Miss C a r m e n E r h a r t , EK's
traveling secretary, was w i t h us
all last week.

T h e Sisters wish to t h a n k all

bake sale last week.

paper and send it t o the editor of
this paper in the form of an
anonymous letter t o the editor.
If the letter is rational and based
on fact, it will be published.
Many students look upon t h e
letters to the editor as n o t h i n g
b u t a big joke. They are n o t .
Many reforms on this c a m p u s
and other campuses have been
b r o u g h t about b y letters t o t h e
editor. D e m o c r a c y is based o n
freedom of speech, and letters
to the editor is democracy in
action.
T h e third procedure of p r e senting ideas t o the administration does not involve any aspect
of publicity. It simply involves
taking the idea t o D r . Parsons,
Dean Y o u n g , D r . Bone or a n y
other administrator. Dr. Bone,
Deans Y o u n g and Nicholson,
and D r . Robinson all operate
offices in which advance appointments are not necessary. Ideas,
reforms, and complaints can be
presented t o these administrators
w i t h o u t fear of personal repercussions.
N o w , let's p u t t h e shoe on t h e
other foot. M a n y students w h o
wish t o complain, base t h e i r
complaints on h a l f - t r u t h s .
A
very recent incident comes t o
mind where would-be reformers
based their reforms on halft r u t h s and r u m o r s .
It is a
shame t h a t on this campus, made
up of supposedly intelligent adults, t h a t runaors s p r e a d like
wildfire and facts like molasses.
Many people base their c o m plaints on rumors, which t h e y
feel, after considering the source,
are facts. Most times information taken " s t r a i g h t from t h e
horse's m o u t h " is distorted and
disfigured by t h e horse itself.
Everyone is inclined t o tell a
story in a w a y which makes
h i m s e l f seem lily-white and
others dirty-black. T h e solution
to t h e problem is so simple as t o
be ridiculous. W h e n a s t u d e n t
wants vahd information all he
need d o is ask an administrator.
One of the major purposes of
the Dean's office is to provide
students with information.
All
one need do is ask.
However,
students are inclined t o ask other
students for information. Many
rumors would be nipped in t h e
bud if a student simply replied,
"I d o n ' t k n o w , " instead of, " I
think it's this w a y . "

Dear Editor,
I have just finished reading
the article on page t w o of the
N o v . 6 issue of the Eagle Eye
concerning school spirit. In the
article a few examples were cited
as reasons for lack of enthusiasm; I would like t o list a few
more.
Yesterday, N o v . 7, I went t o
the Lock H a v e n - I n d i a n a football game at m y o w n expense,
and cheered o u r team along with
less t h a n fifteen other Lock H a ven students.
These students
were our only representation
other than o u r t e a m .
Many
students w a n t e d t o go t o the
game, b u t lacked transportation.
T o m y k n o w l e d g e , student
transportation has never been
suggested.
I a m suggesting it
now, other schools have s t u d e n t
buses, why n o t Lock H a v e n ?
O u r band was n o t present because of a lack of funds for
transportation.
W h y couldn't
the S.C.C. sponsor a c h a r t e r bus
for the band? W e hear so m u c h
about our school being r u n by
we, the s t u d e n t s , and yet we,
the members of the S.C.C. cann o t send o u r band t o all away
games.
A n o t h e r element missing of those needed t o win a
game was cheerleaders.
The
cheerleaders could n o t g o t o I n diana because a m e m b e r of the
f a c u l t y advisory staff was not
available to chaperone t h e m , this
is ridiculous. In m y estimation
students do n o t and c a n n o t compose a school.
T e a m w o r k is
necessary between the student
body and the faculty. By working together we can m a k e Lock
H a v e n State w h a t we w a n t to.
Let's have faculty support at
this school.
T i m e and t i m e again students
tell me that they are so excited
t o be going home for a dance
or football game at their old
high school, when their home
team is playing a game. It is
time for the students of Lock
H a v e n State College t o realize
t h a t their high school days are
over, they have a new loyalty.
T h e students go h o m e t o cheer
their high school teams t o victory while their college team
which should be supported loyally, goes d o w n t o defeat.
W e should have w o n t h a t
game against Indiana, t h e y were
no m a t c h for us, b u t lack of
s u p p o r t can defeat t h e most
talented. Football is past now,
b u t new sport seasons are coming u p , wrestling and basketball.
Come on students and faculty,
let's support o u r teams and our
school. Let's not have another
game like yesterday's. O u r team
is doing its share; let's do ours.
Let's make Lock H a v e n State
the best.
M I C H A E L Moss, '68
Ed. Note:
As far as the transportation
of

Transportation
of students is a different situation
altogether.
At other schools, the
pep club or varsity club charter
the student buses. I recently inquired at the Susquehanna
Transit Company about the rates of
chartered
buses.
They
stated
that the rates vary according
to
the distance traveled,
and the
number of students
desiring
transportation;
each bus has a
capacity of 44 students.
If an
organization
on campus
wishes
to charter a bus, they are available.

THE EAGLE EYE

Letters fo Editor- Conf.
Dear Editor:
I ' m one of the many students
on campus who is fed' up t o his
eye balls with the term " P r o fessional A t t i t u d e " t h a t is so
loosely t h r o w n about by our instructors. However, I've come
to realize t h e serious malady that
these teachers parroting "Professional A t t i t u d e " are trying to
combat.
In m y p a s t experiences on
campus, I've noted m a n y enthusiastic, interested, prepared
classmates engaging in discussions in classes. I've also noted
m a n y other students snickering,
jeering, deriding these active
participants. Can we let these
i m m a t u r e , irresponsible indivi, duals, w h o criticize what they
c a n n o t do, influence our children w h e n they become teachers?
I t h i n k n o t ! Something must
be done!
These individuals are actually
detrimental to a healthy classroom atmosphere. T h e y induce
fear in people who might participate in class with the possible
consequences of ridicule, ostracism, and l o s s of friendship.
These students surely are not
"Professional."
Speaking from a personal and
very real experience, I can honestly say t h a t in the first nine
weeks of this semester t h a t I
learned more t h r o u g h o u r class
discussions than I've l e a r n e d
about m y profession in t h e past
three years. If t h e students in
m y classes had n o t engaged in
thesie impontanit digressions, I
k n o w t h a t we would not have
gained the rewarding intellectual
experiences t h a t made us so rich.
I d o n ' t k n o w what motivates the
students w h o make degrading
remarks t o do so, b u t they must
be too blind t o see the enrichm e n t of o u r education t h r o u g h
classroom discussions. Most of
o u r professors are willing and
enthusiastic t o engage in these
discussions vital t o the future
of o u r teachers. They welcome
classroom contributions.
Those students w h o wish to
make the most of their college
education should actively p a r t i cipate in classroom discussions
and disregard the p e t t y criticisms of the narrow minds. T h e
participant is well on his w a y to
becoming a c o n t r i b u t i n g member of his profession; a "Professional." T h e narrow minds will
be t h e " f o o t - d r a g g e r s "
that
cause m a n y of the great problems in education.
Regarding
the loss of friendship t h r o u g h
class participation; one should
reahze t h a t t h e loss of a college
friend is very insignificant when
compared t o the l o s s of the
knowledge that you should have
acquired t o last the rest of your

hfe.
It does get p r e t t y irritating
to hear "Professional A t t i t u d e "
a great deal of the time on campus.
But it is very i m p o r t a n t
t o awaken some of the petty
people on campus.
I've seen the h g h t . A n d the
h g h t is rewarding. It is the d u t y
of those of us who are striving
for professionalism t o
keep
w o r k i n g and participating, while
helping awaken those less fort u n a t e students who seem to be
wasting a great deal of t h e college experiences offered to them.
