Students Sexually Harassed By LHSC Teachers
Editor's Note: The following
story deals wilh the sexual
harassmen t of L HSC females
by LHSC professors. For obvious reasons, the names of
both professors and students
involved will be witheld from
the article.

The Eagle Eye has learned
that certain professors and
one known administrator
have been making sexual advances toward female LHSC
students, both physically and
vocally.
One female told the paper
that she was physically attacked by a professor,
however was not sexually

Be cool in the reception of

Tell the instructor that you
don't find it amusing.
Also, students should
avoid socializing with professors, and stay away from
parties where known offenders will be.
"Most of them are known
and generally a v o i d e d ,
thanks to work-of-mouth,"
Martin said.
If a student should continue to have a problem with
an instructor, it can go to a
panel of peers. Faculty
members take up the problem, but the student must
come forward. "Usually they
don't," Martin said, "for
fear of grade repercussions."
Another choice is the Advocacy Committee, a new
committee
formed
of
students and faculty. Ombudspersons for the committee are Martin and Dr. Peter

Matthews.
Problems with weeding out
the offenders, according to
Martin, are that there is
nothing the school can do
unless a civil suit is brought
against an instructor. Also,
with the departments being so
small, if a student is a major
in that department, they cannot avoid taking him for a
course.
Although most faculty
members make the advances,
according to Martin, the student's dress can be a come on
to an instructor. "What it
turns out to be is a misinterpretation of signals or body

language," Martin said.
"When a student becomes
involved with a member of
the faculty, it is not very good
judgement. Consenting refationships can lead to deep
.emotional
problems for
w o m e n , " M a r t i n said,
"because, they become more
involved than they thought
they would be."
The changing relationships
between students and instructors has led to some of the
harassment according to
Martin, because of the
changes in what once were
clearly defined lines between
student and instructor.

Burge Outlines Future Plans
By PAM YOBLONSKI
/^ews Editor
Fifteen thousand people
crowded into Hub Jacic
Stadium listening to Supertramp or the Cars one sunny,
Autumn day. It is possible,
according to SCC President
Phil Burge, who said he
wants to have an outdoor
concert next fall.
"1 may be dreaming."
Burge said. "1 have about a
30 percent chance of pulling
it off, but it can be done with
a lot of work."
Burge said the biggest
obstacle to the concert is raising money. He said the total
cost would be near $100,000,
which means the SCC would
possible have to borrow
money to finance the concert.
Burge also said that even
though the cost is so large, he
doesn't feel the SCC would
lose money on the venture.
He said he is counting on
people to come from as far
away as Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia.
"There is a way of doing
it." he said. "It's risky, but a
$50,000 profit is nice." Burge
said the $50,000 figure comes
from the 15,000 people he expects will attend, multiplied
by the $10 per ticket that will
be charged.
As for what band will play,
Burge said he doesn't know.
He said he will work on the
concert plans this summer, to

see if it is possible to have
one.
Another project of Surge's
which he says will be
operating next semester, is
the off-campus housing program. This is a program to
help students find offcampus housing and to help
them deal with landlord problems.
Burge said things like getting pamphlets printed and
getting an office ready are all
that remain to do before the
program will begin.
When asked whether the 30
percent bookstore mark-up
will be revoked, Burge said

no. He said the mark-up is
what is keeping, the SCC out
of debt and even with that, he
"forsees an activity fee increase or (budget) cuts" in
the administrations following
his.
One cut that has affected
the SCC is the cut in funding
for the work-study program.
Burge said that the SCC
received the same allotment
as last year, even though
workers now have to be paid
minimum wage, wheras they
weren't before. He said one
result of this is that game
room hours will be shortened.

The PUB will be looking
better though, according to
Burge, because the administration is going to pay
for some remodeling. Burge
said that a new front lobby
carpet, furniture, and a paint
job is on order for the
building.
A new idea to bring in
more revenue which Burge
said is in the planning is a
community activity fee.
Burge said area residents will
be allowed to attend plays,
concerts, and sporting events,
but for a fee. "It's a good
source of revenue.'' he said.

"Hey little girl, wanna come into my office, you're
not too swift in class, but I can give you an "A "for
other things."
Sound familiar? Weil this type of behavior is
spreading itself through most college and university
campuses throughout the country, even LHSC. Yes, it
seems we too have our little band of middleaged sex
fiends trying to pick up the young female student.
Well forget it guys, no 2<)-year-old woman wants to
shack up with your shabby old bodies and out-of-date
lines. If you can't get it in your own age group, what
makes you think you can go shopping elsewhere? It's a
shame that the Eagle Eye promised it would not mention your names or your kinky little habits, but if we
could we would probably pressure you right out of a
job.
Of course this type of .teacher does not by any
means represent the teaching profession. They are
rather deviants who crawl out from under gradebooks
threatening the student with a "D" if she does not give
in to his demands. As a matter of fact, the only way
they can get any response is by dangling the grade
chart or administrative paperwork.
It's unfortunate that this type of individual exists in
the 'educational world. While trying to get the attention of one well-proportioned student, they totally
disregard the rest of the class. They have failed in their
professions and through this, they have failed the college student, who by the way, pays an ever-increasing
tuition rate, and should not be subject to these misfits
in the teaching profession.
A teacher should be someone whom students look
up to and admire for their love of knowledge and
perserverance. These teachers in question are sleazy,
low class individuals with a low threshold for competence, and who for the most part, couldn 't turn on
an electric appliance much less a female student.
The Eagle Eye offers this advice to these teachers:
either clean up your act or sooner or later we 'li clean it
up for you.

Editorial

The May Sth edition of the
Eagle Eye reported that Mr.
Storch was disgusted with the
delay in the Dr. Thomas arbitration. I find this most
amusing since one of the parties responsible for this delay
is Dr. Hamblin, the person
who hired Mr. Storch to advise him on legal matters. The
other responsible party is Dr.
Hamblin's
immediate
superior, the Secretary of
Education.
Dr. Hamblin's cupability
in this delay stems from the
fact that he waited until October 1 to answer the
grievance of Dr. Thomas. It
was within Dr. Hamblin's
control to respond quite early
in September, say September
12, thus speeding this process
by more than two weeks. It
is, however, the Secretary of
Education who must assume
most responsibility since according to the APSCUF contract he is required to respond
to a grievance within 30 days,
which in this case would have
been early November. But it
was not until early February
that Dr. Thomas and
APSCUF became aware of
his response! Had Dr.

Hamblin and the Secretary ot
Education been interested in
settUng this grievance, there
is no reason why preliminary
arbitration decisions could
not have been agreed upon by
APSCUF and the Commonwealth by the middle of
October. At present the
Commonwealth is delaying
naming people to the arbitration board.
Dr. Hamblin, through his
representative, Mr. Storch,
claims that Dr. THomas was
terminated because she refused to teach her courses
although they admit that she
appeared for the first class of
every course that she had
been assigned to teach. Furthermore, they admit that
they dispatched campus
police to prevent her from
entering classes. As a result.
Dr. Thomas was suspended
from teaching. Had Dr.
Thomas not been suspended,
she would still be teaching,
and therefore the administration would have no evidence
for their claim that she refused to teach. Ergo, she was
suspended. Try to figure that
one out!
Sincerely,
B.C. Dornisch

What does a naive little girl
of nineteen from Plunketts
Run, Pennsylvania do on
Sunday night when the evening services at church are
cancelled? Why, go to a dirty
movie, of course. And I guess
"Debbie Does Dallas" is just
as good as any movie of that
sort to start with.
I was really surprised to see
that just about every seat was
filled in Price Auditorium.
There wasn't even nearly as
many seats filled when "The
Muppet Movie" had played.
I wonder why.
Most of the audience was
guys, though I did see a few

girls. At least, I wasn't alone.
Most of the girls probably
had some knitting to do. I
chose a seat next to the aisle
so I could see better.
At last, the movie began.
Not bad so far. Here come
the cheerleaders. Good
heavens! I could not believe
their uniforms. Plunkett's
Run High would have never
allowed their cheerleaders to
dress like that. One girl didn't
even wear her unmentionables. The guys in the audience really liked that-if
their whistles were anything
to go by. Some of the girls
even started to whistle. I
started to worry about them.
A shower scene was shown.

I'm told there's nothing like
good clean fun. But in front
of a camera? Debbie (Bambi
Woods) thought nothing of
displaying her body. I was
always told different strokes
for different folks but I never
knew anyone took it so
seriously before.
By this time, I was wondering if there was a plot to the
movie. I soon found out
there was a very small one.
The cheerleaders needed to
earn some extra money to go
to Dallas to become Dallas
cheerleaders. Simple enough
to understand so far, right?
They all decided to stop seeing their boyfriends, the football players naturally, for a

Commentary... Commentary

As the end of the school
year draws near, the time is
ripe for a report on those
"little things" that bother so
many people on our campus.
First and foremost is
Bentley Dining Hall. Now,
we all know how difficult it is
to cook for over 2,000
students, but let's be real.
Just last week our main
course during lunch was
cheese-dogs. Cheese-dogs? If
you wanted a little variety
you could run, over to the
third line and grab a plain,
old-fashioned hot-dog. All
we're asking is a little common sense when preparing
the menu. Now for a couple
of helpful hints. Is it too
much to ask to have hot
vegetables, or maybe some
macaroni salad once in a
while? Putting it simply.

Bentley is not doing a good
job at Lock Haven.
Another problem the
students face is apathy. But
who really cares anyway?
Let's move on to bigger problems.
As everybody knows, the
alcohol situation on this
campus is absurd. When we
reach the age of 18, we can
vote, we can be drafted for
the armed service, we can get
married, but we can't drink a
six-pack in our rooms.
Why can't the college accept the fact that people are
going to drink and at least
legalize alcohol for those
students 21 years of age?
That's too logical for Lock
Haven, however.
Maybe the last major problem the students face is preregistration. This mob sc^ne
is the most outrageous and

mixed-up spectacle one can
imagine. Students are allowed to sign for courses based
on the number of credits they
have earned. That's a great
system, except when it's
abused to an enormous
degree and some people suffer. With all the computers
and programmers on this
campus, why can't something
be done about computerizing
the whole system? Something
has got to be done, and let's
hope it's done quickly.
I also would like to know
what is so secretive about the
resignation of a basketball
coach. Why was it so important that something of this
stature be covered up, yet the
Eagle Eye covered the story
before any of the other local
media? Who's kidding who?
It seems like a bunch of B.S.
to me. A final sore spot on

The Editor's View of the Past Eventful Year
Editor's note: The next four pages are a collection of important events, both on and off campus, that touched us
both mentally, emotionally, and sometimes financially.
By JEFF FLEISHMAN
Editor in Chief
Its been a year of triumph, frustrations, bewilderment, joy, strife, financial worry, nationalization,
Reagan, Carter, Iran, 30» mark-ups, and scores of
other emotions and events that have etched themselves
into the calendar.
As coiiege students we were caught in the middle of
the mainstream. In a sense, we were sheltered from the
piercing realities of the world; however, on the other
hand, we were able to objectively look at the infections
and manifestations of world events, while snuggled
safely in the Pennsylvania mountains.
We made judgements, thought of solutions, and
shook our heads in amazement as we carried ourselves
from one day to the next. Our opinions were being
formed, our individualism was being fabricated, and
our sense of awareness crept upon us as this fiscal and
academic year slowly grinded itself into the past.
We cheered for the hostages, waved Carter goodbye, cautiously greeted Mr. Reagan, wondered about
Poland, questioned 30 percent book mark-ups, laughed at the Darlene Thomas incident, cried over John
Lennon, awed the space shuttle, closed our eyes to the
tuition hike, marveled at the soccer team, worried
about grades, and above all, matured and experienced
channels of life that fascinated, but at the same time
scared us.

1980 - '81
What A Year!
Jocks were introduced to the New York Times,
while brains hopped into gym shorts trying to figure
out which end of the tennis racket to hold. Each of us
picked up a different toy than the one we were used to.
We experimented, opened our minds, and at times enjoyed the aspects of college life. It was nice to go home
and discuss politics as your father listened in amazement while he passed the potatoes. We were spreading
a little of the knowledge that had been given to us onto
our friends and loved ones. '
Many people found their way into Stevenson
Library (many did not). They opened books, sighed,
and slowly dove into the depths of some kind of
knowledge. After reading, they picked up their knapsacks, hurled it over the shoulder, and walked into the
winter air. The walk up to the dorms was cold and
refreshing as the snow fell gently around us. They
thought and imagined how good it would be to be
formed into somebody special, somebody others admired and respected. They thought of their contributions to the worid, and what they could do to earn

themselves a place in the history books, or at least a
place in the hearts of others. After the fairy tale, they
changed shoulders with the knapsack, took a deep
breath, and finished the long mnrch into McEntire
Hall.
We met new people, forgot about some already
known, and wallowed in music and beer throughout
the cellars of our high-class fraternities. Some were
picked up, others walked home alone protecting their
virginity and self-respect, still others went home to the
arms of another woman.
However, students were apathetic also. They did
nothing about fighting their tuition hike, failed to vote
at the polls (both on and off campus), didn't even
react to the 30 percent bookstore mark-up, and for the
most part, cut themselves off from the important
issues facing their lives. In one aspect, students acted
along the same lines as the rest of the population, uncaring to the events that surrounded them. Just take a
look at the country and the world. Apathy is a malig=nant growth. Instead of utilizing our rights we forfeit
them to ignorance and laziness. It's unfortunate, but
our generation will be the one that feels the shock of
apathetic reality.
So we as students must reaffirm ourselves to the importance of world events, so that we may become more
capable to function in this ever-changing land known
as the United States.

if, externally, America is going to, once again, prove
herself the big kid on the
block. It's about time.
Domestically though, it
looks like we're in for quite a
shock. Reagan's budget ax is
chopping up federal programs like there's no tomorrow. It's the most dramatic
budget plan in recent history.
Many thought that it would
be hard for Reagan to slide
this reduction piece through a
Democratic
Congress,
however, Congress is accepting the idea from a
philosophical aspect rather
than a financial one. It appears many of the Democrats
in Congress don't approve of
Reagan's policy, but are willing to take on some type of
change.

Red Tape Tangles Dr. Thomas Case

Bookstore Hike Uncovered
By JEFF FLEISHMAN
Editor In Chief
Upon
return
from
Christmas break, the Eagle
Eye uncovered the 30%
mark-up tacked on all books
sold in the LHSC bookstore.
Twenty percent of the
mark-up was tacked on by
the publishers for transportation and freight costs. The
controversial extra 10% is
stamped on by the bookstore,
alias
SCC.
Howard
Reynolds, Director of the
PUB, said that the additional
10% mark-up is necessary so
that the bookstore may
operate in safe financial
boundaries.
The decision to mcorporate a 10'mark-up was instituted by former SCC President, Jeff Bomboy, and
Reynolds. It was a verbal
agreement, and was never
disclosed to the student body
or to a large portion of the
Senate and Executive committees that followed the

Bomboy administration.
Present SCC President
Burge knew nothing about
the mark-up until approached by Eagle Eye reporters.
After the mark-up was
discovered many people
wondered if it was in
Reynolds' jurisdiction to
maintain the mark-up
without consulting the Burge
administration.
At the SCC meeting that
was going to decide whether
the mark-up would remain in
effect, all of these issues and
many others were brought up
but never really answered.
The SCC decided to keep the
additional 10% mark-up, and
did not question Reynolds'
authority whatsoever.
Once again, the students of
LHSC showed no substantial
interest in the outcome of the
Senate meeting. There were
only a handful of students
present at the meeting, show-'
ing that campus issues, out
side of sporting events, mean
little to the majority of the

I

student body.
Recently, at the SCC
budget
meeting,
the
bookstore
reported
thousands of dollars worth of
profit. Six thousand of which
will be used to buy new cash
registers in the bookstore.
Since the bookstore is turning
in a profit, couldn't it channel some of that money back
to the students, extinguishine
the 10% mark-up? After all,
the bookstore is a non-profit
organization.

Administration Answers Questions
By JEFF FLEISHMAN
Editor in Chief
In an effort to bring the administration and its policies
closer to the student body,
both President Hamblin and
Vice President Marshall met
with the students of LHSC in
a question and answer session
this semester.
Because of this effort,
some students on campus
became more aware of how
the other half of the college
operates and acts in relation
to student needs and desires.
High points should go to
both Hamblin and Marshall
for more or less meeting with
the students on their own
ground (McEntire Hall).
The main issues brought up
by the small amount of
students that attended the
session, were next year's
housing, tuition, books, and
the possibility of LHSC
becoming part of a university
system. Both Marshall and
Hamblin responded to the
questions objectively, letting

feels that this may not go into
effect, and if it does, it will
take quite some time before
the actual formulation is
completed.
Both
Marshall
and
Hamblin reaffirm the stance
that the administration would
only act in advisory capacity
to the SCC. After the uncovering of the bookstore
m a r k - u p , many people
wondered if the administration was going to step in and
become more closely tied
with the SCC. However, this
will not be the case according
to Marshall and Hamblin.

By JEFF FLEISHMAN
Editor in Chief
LHSC added its own national news to the sports
world this year. Once again,
our soccer team left the airport with dreams and desires
and returned number one in
the country in the Division II
Championships.
The soccer team has been
by far the most productive of
the sports teams at LHSC in
recent years. They have continuously established a high
quality of ability along with

This team is a perfect example of the high standard that
can be achieved without an
excessive amount of money.
However, it is also important to point out that some of
the players come from such
soccer countries as Ireland
and England, which proves to
be a definite plus for LHSC.

By JEFF FLEISHMAN

The newest member of the

sound of gunshots.
There we were, wondering
what to do about gun control, when shots rang out
through the New York City

many of us clung onto for

of a man bent on destroying

The world mourned the
death of John Lennon, who

It was the biggest space

While the Soviet Union

United States aimed its efforts towards space, and the
product was a halfplane/half-rocket which was

why not use the money more

There are many sides and

Boseboll Team Cogerly flujQits Next Season
By BOB BAKER
Sports Editor
The Lock Haven baseball
team recently completed their
baseball season with an 11-15
mark. To most coaching
staffs this seasonal record
would be a disappointment.
However, the Bald Eagle
coaches remain very optiim'stic for the future and
are already looking forward
to next season.
Assistant coach Steve
DeLisle commented about
this past season by saying,
"We were a very competitive
team." According to DeLisle, "This competitiveness is
the first step in building a
winner."

"Our inexperience hurt us
at times," he added. " W e
will be much improved with
experience."
The Eald Eagles should be^
very much improved next
year as 18 of 19 team
members will be back. The
only senior lost to graduation
will be outfielder Ed Tarconish.
The native from Middleport capped off a brilliant
four year career by batting
.412 this season. His .355
career average is an all-time
Lock Haven mark.
Tarconish also holds the
Lock Haven record for most
runs scored," 84; most triples,
14; and the highest number of

total bases, 171. This season
he also scored 28 runs setting
a new Lock Haven record.
Many other Bald Eagle
batters enjoyed fine years at
the plate as they accomplished a new single season team
batting mark of .311.
Scott Day had a super year
by leading the team with a
.433 mark. He was also the
team leader in the rbi department by knocking in 24 teammates.
Another pleasant suprise
for Tod Eberle's squad was
shortstop Ray Billotte. The
clutch hitter rapped out a
.360 average and also produced 24 rbi's.
Four other Bald Eagles

topped the .300 mark. There
were Kevin Swisher, Ed Vaz,
Bill Wortman, and Frank
Picciotto.
This yetu-s pitching department was not as impressive as
the batters. However, they
did feature a few bright
spots.
Right-hander Bill Wortman chalked up six wins for
the season while sporting a
fine ERA of 3.36. His career
mark now stands at 10-2, and
the sophomore is only four
wins from the all-time mark.
