Low meeting attendance
evidences quiet campus
By PHILIP BURLINGAME
Assistan-fNews Editor
JIM DORAN
Staff Reporter
President Francis Hamblin, in an "open meeting" held
in Ulmer Planetarium yesterday afternoon, expressed the
• belief that, except for a few
minor issues, all is quiet on the
campus. His opinion was
clearly evidenced by the fact
that, aside from the Eagle Eye
contingent, no one else was
present to raise a question or
take issue with any administrative decisions.
Ignoring the fact that the
open meeting had become an
informal press conference
Hamblin proceeded to discuss
some of the still unresolved
problems on campus. He
remarked that one current
major concern for many students is the investigative
procedures used by the college
Law Enforcement and Safety
Division. He noted that the
S.C.C. and the Student Life
Office are reviewing the subject and that a resolution is
pending.
Moving quickly to budget
problems Hamblin expressed
his disatisfaction with a recent
decision by Pa. Budget Secretary Mcintosh to halt any
additional hiring of college
personnel by saying "it kills us
when we try to run a good
college." He added that the
state college system could lose
$178. million in yeariy Federal
subsidies through violation of
certain fair labor laws.
Commenting on the college'sfiscalsituation in general, Hamblin said, "We're not
quite as badly off this year as
we were last year." When
asked if there would be a room

rent increase for next year he
said, "Room costs may rise,
but we are a people's college
and should keep costs at an
absolute minimum."
Speaking about the long
debated Arts and Science
reading list requirement Hamblin said, "1 approved the final
recommendation over the
weekend and it is now officially defunct."
At the end of the meeting
Hamblin attempted to set the
record straight by saying that
neither he nor his traditional
Homecoming outfit are Texan
in origin as was reported by
the Eagle Eye. He noted that

New B.S. maior slated for review Thursday
By PHILIP BURLINGAME
Assist. News Editor
The Faculty Curriculum
Committee is scheduled to
decide on Thursday the fate of
a revolutionary Bachelor of
Science degree featuring a
major in General Studies.
Last year a General Studies
Committee, comprised of
faculty and student representatives from each of the three
academic schools, was appointed by Dr. Robinson to
develop an outline for the
General Studies program. The
committee's final proposal will
be reviewed by the Faculty
Curriculum Committee on
Thursday.
The General Studies program is designed to allow
students to "invent'' their own
program of study along with
an advisor of the students
choice and a General Studies
Committee. This will allow a
student the opportunity to
obtain a B.S. degree without
following traditional course

outlines presently offered for
B.S. majors.
Dean of Arts and Sciences
Hugh Williamson, as a member of the General Studies
Committee, stressed that the

proposed B.S. degree is not
(.oiincctcd with a liberal arts
degree. "The program will be
presented by an inter-school
committee - it is not a proposal

Work Study students to get
pay increase this January
The Financial Aids office reports that effective
January 1, 1976 work study
students will receive a nine
cent per hour increase in pay.
"We're required to pay 85%
of the Federal Minimum
Wage," said Financial Aid
Director Brian Van Deun, "so
in January the hourly rate will
be $1.79', which is 85% of
$2.10 - the present minimum
wage."
Van Deun further remarked
that the Department of Labor
is considering an additional
wage rate increase of ,11 cents
per hour effective in March of
1975. This increase would

entitle work-study students to
$2.10 per hour, thcrate of pay
currently established as the
Federal Minimum Wage.
NOW'S
YOUR
CHANCE- College President Francis Hamblin
will be guest speaker
this morning on WBPZ's
"Talk Back" show. To
be airv'd from 10:06 to
11:00 a.m., the show
will consist of an interview with the president
and time for calls from
interested listeners. Ask

EAGLE EYE

Today's Ediforial
Not just more B.S.
'Recognizing that the future shape of American
higher education can and will be more flexible, open, and
egalitarian, the Bachelor of Science with a Major in General
Studies is designed to provide flexibility for students to
fashion their own program with fewer structural requirements."
The above statement was not exerpted from a private
college catalog or "ed Psych" book. Approved by the Pa.
Dept. of Education as a concept for •?.ll State colleges, the
philosophy will be discussed at LHS tomorrow by the Faculty
Curriculum Comnsittee. If passed, a proposal for a B.S.
program majoring in General Studies could proceed through
channels to become a real alternative for students who both
can and will assume more responsibility in fulfilling course
and degree requirements.
However, if the proposal is vetoed at this level, all hopes
for opening up new pathways of educational pursuit may be
halted. As the program's philosophy states, "Our institution
stands at the threshhold of change and challenge, and to
ignore the need to redefine and provide an alternative to the
traditional degree programs is to ignore a larger community
of interests who cannot adapt to the traditional program
structures."
Any fear that such a program would sap the strength of
numbers in liberal arts and education is unfounded. Only
certain kinds of students could successfully pursue the
regimen of self-discipline, self-direction, and alternative
styles of learning involved in the pursuit of a diverse
curriculum.
By roadblocking this proposal, the Faculty Curriculum
Committee would only serve to stifle the special means
required by certain students with which to obtain their own
style of education - the unique combination of courses which
will meet needs not satisfied within the structure of existing
programs. We urge the committee to carefully consider the
proposal in light of the tremendous opportunity and
flexibility it offers the person willing to be a true student.

''Greeks Speak" is a weekly column designed to inform the
student body of news concerning Greek life at Lock Haven
State. Any contributions or questions related to fraternities or
sororities should be su'^ .i'ted to Student Publications, PUB

Delta Zeta was first called Alpha Delta Zeta when it was founded
by six co-eds at Miami University of Ohio on Oct. 24, 1902. The
Alpha was dropped and Delta Zeta grew and spread to become the
largest national sorority with 178 collegiate chapters and over
76,000 members.
Delta Zeta's colors are old rose and vieux green. Their jewel is the
diamond and their flower is the pink rose. The pin is a lamp. The
turtle is Delta Zeta's mascot.
The Theta Chi Chapter was founded on May 4,1963 at L.H.S. The
chapter's distinguished alum is Gail Ott Bonanno who won the
Grace Mason Lundy Award in 1973, the highest honor that national
can give to a collegiate member. In 1975, Gail was appointed
National Scholarship Chairman.
Theta Chi Chapter is also proud of their advisor, Mrs, Marilou
Gary, who has been elected National Vice President in charge of
Collegiate Affairs. The chapter has won many national and state
awards.
Traditions and customs of the chapter include: a Rock-a-thon, a
Kidnapping, a fall semi-formal, spring dinner dance with the
traditional Delta Zeta garter, pie-eating contest, Easter baskets for
the sororities, projects for speech and hearing, and candlelights.

The Eagles, ranked ninth
in the East as of last week, are
10-1-1 on the year. The team
will try to kill two birds with

"most victories in a season

perhaps more important, the

what seed in that tournament
we will attain."

from S.C.C. consideration.
Arnold added, however, "I
have drawn up a constitution

to inform interested students
