President Willis announces retirement
Issue: 09/27/02

By Anastasia Bannikova
LHUP President Craig Dean
Willis announced at the
University Trustees' Meeting
that he will retire on July 30,
2004. Willis thanked the Board
of Trustees and students for
"wonderful years at Lock
Haven."
"Being at the University has
been extremely rewarding and

challenging,"
"During these past twenty years
many accomplishments have
happened, among them a new
branch campus, academic programs including masters; and
associate degrees to meet our
regional needs, appropriate

accreditation, international programs, new and renovated buildings... and more."
Former Governor Richard
Thornburg appointed Willis as
the University's twelfth chief
administrator on July 22, 1982.
At that time student enrollment
was 2,604 and eighteen baccalaureate degree programs
were offered. Today, the main
campus has 65 undergraduate
degree programs and three graduate degree programs.
"President Willis has had a
long and dedicated tenure [here].
The institution has grown...
under his leadership and he has
contributed greatly to the development ofthe entire PPSE," said
Judy G. Hample, chancellor of
the State System of Higher
Education.

Since 1982, the main campus
has expanded to include new
baseball fields, a 177-bed apartment building Campus Village,
the Annex Building with FLS
language program and a small
business development office, the
Silk Mill parking lot, the Student
Recreation Center, the ROTC
house, the international house,

You have a few options, you

This just might have been
the case when $6600 worth of
equipment was found to be
missing from Price performing

The equipment was taken
sometime between October 15
and 17. The four speakers,

The international education
program was also in its infancy
with little to distinguish it from
programs on other campuses.
Today, the Institute for international Studies coordinates active
exchange programs and student
teaching abroad programs with
26 partner universities in 22 different countries.
"Dr. Willis is retiring but he
is not leaving the area," said Dr.
Roy Stewart, LHUP Vice
President. According to Willis's
plans, he is building a house in
Lock Haven to enjoy his retirement near the university. "There
is no question that Central
Pennsylvania is a better place
because of his efforts," said
Donald L Faulkner, Chair ofthe
University Council of Trustees.

"I spent several days in
Washington with some of the
best educators in the nation in
the areas of mathematics and

learning experience. It was

said.
Potts has taught secondary
science at the Chariho Middle
School in Wood River
Junction, Rhode Island for the
past 10 years. He was nominated for the award by Mr.
William Fasano, principal of
Chariho Middle School.
Potts cites University professor, Dr. Donald L. Oakley,
for preparing him to teach.
"Dr. Oakley's goal was to
provide his students with all of
the opportunities necessary to
fill our tool box before we ever
set foot into a classroom, all
the while knowing that there
was no greater teacher than a
classroom full of students. He
was there to critic our video

to improve on. In short, he
taught his methods class the

I have to admit that this column could have been a little bit better if different people had written it.
Jess and I seem to agree on way too many things. If my co-editor Suzie and I had written it, we'd never
run out of ideas, as we disagree on everything. Likewise, if our opinion editor Mike had written this column with Jess, there would never be trouble finding a disagreement.
But enough of what could have been. Jess and I are the ones who started writing "He said, She said"
for the Eagle Eye, and not to toot my own horn, but I think we had a few that were homeruns. This column is run in many campus papers across the country, but as far as originating in Lock Haven, I have to
tell you that it was Jess's baby. I also must say it was the second best idea she's ever had (the first was
going to see Aerosmith in State College in December).
So the longer we ran HS/SS, the more we realized that we agree on WAY too much stuff. At least
we agree on too much to be writing an opinion column arguing all the time. So we had to stoop to some
lows. Sometimes, one of us would throw out an idea and the other one would agree, but would take the
opposite side just because we could make an argument for it. Therefore, don't believe everything you
read in HS/SS to be 100% our true opinions. Sometimes we just wanted to get it done. Unprofessional?

-Eagle Eye Editors
ie

In response to Mr. Kiser
In response to Mr. Riser's
reviews, and departmental critique, I wish to clarify a number

of mistaken assumptions. Mr.
Kiser's reviews have not bothered me in any way. It is Mr.
Kiser's omissions that I wish to
now address. I hope to bring to
Mr. Kiser's attention the hard
work of our students and faculty who organize our shows, a
point he neglects to acknowledge. I also wish to support the
department as a whole. I regret
that I can't address many of Mr.
Kiser's comments due to his
unwillingness to be specific. I
will, however, make an effort to
respond to what I have first
hand knowledge of.
The Lock Haven University
Art department presents eight
exhibitions per academic year.
This is a very large undertaking.
Our students and faculty work
together to make the selection
of the visiting artists and prepare thc exhibitions. I do not
agree with Mr. Kiser that these
are "often sub-par artists from
within the State System of

told to expect less." I do not
know who said that to him. I
have written grants for support,

worked with donors and sat

trying to improve funding. I
have also contacted artists from
around the world to broaden our
applicant pool. I have never
seen Mr. Kiser do anything to
help. If he had asked, or
researched a bit, he would know
how absurd this sentence is. I
believe he owes an apology to
the students and faculty who

have worked to improve things
while he sat at the back criticizing. We had a saying when I
was Mr. Kiser's age- "If you are
not part of the solution you are
part of the problem."
If in six years we can offer
this area exhibitions from seven

Mr. Kiser states- "Rather than

better than the Eagle Eye
reviewer gives. If he does not
personally appreciate thc work
of some of our visiting artists,
then I believe he should express
his opinion. I also believe he
has an obligation, as a reviewer
for a university newspaper, to
go beyond mere opinion.
The faculty and student representatives select thc artists we
show. The selection concerns
more than one person's opinion
of their quality. We try very
hard to show artists in a wide
variety of styles and media. The
works both bring the arts to this
area and assist in teaching. With
a faculty of five it is a great help

at Lock Haven, five of those as
co-chairperson of the exhibitions committee, we have
shown excellent works by
artists from the system as well
as artists from numerous states
in this country and Germany,
Holland, South Korea, Vietnam,
Chili, Tunisia and England.
Mr. Kiser needs to be
informed that the budget we

consider that the needs of the

are greater then the needs of the
one.
As curator of the Lock

collections and as chairperson
of the Art department I regret
that Mr. Kiser must always find
some fault. Perhaps, if in the
future he should have experience in curating exhibitions or
educating students, he will be
more like the boy who leaves
home because his father knows
nothing and who returns years

later surprised at how much his
father has learned. Perhaps he
will then be able to offer more
educated critiques of the world
around him. I belong to a
department that has had its
entire faculty and many of its
students volunteer their time to
put on these exhibitions with no
compensation other than the

desire to share art with the students, faculty, administrators,
staff and residents of this area. I
belong to a department with
students who work with and
improve each other every year. I
belong to a department with
faculty that work long hours
and are concerned about all of
their students- if they were not I
doubt they would last long at
the Lock Haven University Art
Department. Are our students
and faculty perfect? No. But
they try, they often succeed, and
I am proud of them all.

Local cops jump the gun
Around 2:30am last Friday,
my roommate and I received a
knock at our door. Stumbling
out of bed and wondering who
could be knocking at this hour, I
was greeted by an LHU officer
and a local city officer.
Soon after, they expressed
their wishes to talk to my roommate and I. Once in the hall we
were questioned about a hit and
run accident that had happened
the night before around the same
time we were awakened.
We were being questioned
because the officers had seen
some damage to my roommate's
car. This damage had been done
more than six months earlier,
but they claimed that the paint
off his car matched that of the
paint on the victim's car of this
hit and run accident. However,
they told us there was gray paint
on the victim's gray car and the
paint on my roommate's gray car
was green (from a green truck
that had hit him before).
We told the officers how we,
like most other students at 2:30

.

in the morning, were asleep and
in our room all night. When the
officers heard this claim they
questioned whether we were just
protecting each other and there
must be an explanation of why
my

roommate's

was

involved in this accident. We
were asked who all has access to
drive the car, and how it could
have been in an accident downtown.

It was clear that by the time

were brought into the
"investigation," the officers had
made up their mind about our
involvement. Once we had told
our story to the officers a couple
times they told us to stay awake.
They were going to go talk
to some other people and would
call us back in 30-45 minutes.
About ten minutes later, my
roommate's father called us and
we

was very upset because the cops

had called him and told him
their "story." The cops had told
him that we were acting very
suspicious and overly calm.

officers finally called us back
and told us that they had taken

were no longer being pursued in
the "investigation."
I don't know what they
measured or who they talked to,
but I'm sure they could have
done this before they woke us
up at 2:30 in the morning to
throw their suspicions, about
what must have happened, in
our face.

share this story because it
(among many other things)
stirred up within me some fundamental questions regarding

the nature of Christianity.
The term "Christian" has
some
interesting
history.
Followers of Christ were initially referred to as "Christians"

when Barnabas and Saul taught
the Word in Antioch. The term
"Christian" became a means of
separating followers of Christ's
Word.
The Romans also
referred to them as "Christians."
It was a label.
It should be mentioned that
the disciples did not call themselves "Christians." They were
referred to as Christians by others. The disciples called each
other "brethren" (or brother),
conveying a philic love for one
another.
The distinction between
these two words (Christian and
brethren) and their implications
does not serve as my argument
against Christianity; it is merely
something to make note of.
I mentioned in my last article
Exodus 4:1 where we read of
God beckoning Moses to confront the Pharaoh, and Moses
expressing his fear that they will
not believe his words. I would
like to continue with this a bit
and observe that as His response
to Moses' fear, God turns the rod
of Moses into a serpent, then
back again into a rod, and his
hands to leprous, then back to
clean flesh. God then says,
"And it shall come to pass, if
they will not believe these two
signs, nor hearken unto your
words, thou shall take of the
water of the river, and pour it

cussion. However, they do not,

as Mark holds, provide an
answer to my question, "How is
it that
we can believeth on Christ?"
Allow me to ask hypothetically: What if scripture was
reduced to nothing more than
this: "Jesus, the son of God, was
born of a virgin, died for your
sins, was resurrected, and now
dwells with his Father in heaven. Believe this and you shall
have eternal life?" Would we
intrinsically believeth on Christ?
The answer seems self-evident.
Take away Christ's Word and we
have nothing but a story.
This seems to be the most
appropriate place to mention
another of Mark's claims: "All
of this (the purpose of Matthew's
article) was to search for... the
distinction between the person
of Jesus and the 'Word' or
'Words' of Jesus, and why or if

he came from God." It is here,
in this statement, that Mark
reveals his critical misunderstanding of my article. It must
be clarified that my interest lies
not in making a distinction
between Christ the person and
His Word. Rather, I am interested in pulling Christ up, or sublimating him, if you will, from the
material state (person-hood) that
Christianity has reduced him to,

back to the immaterial state of
The Word of God.
We read in the book, that the
Word (Christ) became flesh and
dwelled among us. We understand that Christ 'the person' is a
manifestation; the Word being
his source. The Word became
flesh. Flesh did not become
Word. And we must ask ourselves, "Is a manifestation more
significant than its origin and
source?" Once again the answer
seems intuitively evident.
One of the problems with
the "Christ as Word" concept is
the failure of many (including
myself) to stop and ask, "What
are words?" When we consider
this for a moment, we find there
is perhaps much more significance to a word than we attribute. I do not claim to have a

p

grasp on what word (spoken,
written, signed, and so forth) is.
However, I am inclined to
believe that it is word as intriof the
mind, or soul if you will, that
separates man from an animal
kingdom. The linguistic-rela-

tivity hypothesis of Benjamin
Lee Whorf and Edward Sapir
has precipitated much discus-

sion in this relationship between
language and the mind. Both
held that all thinking associated
with the essence of being
human is a result of language.
I believe there is a danger in
failing to recognize the subordination of the material flesh or
mere person-hood of Christ to
the immaterial Word of Christ.
It is unfortunate that to some I
seem deviant in acknowledging
that Christ is Word. Perhaps all
of us are in need of sitting back
to meditate on the Word a bit
more.
Let us return now to Mark's
words. It was pleasing to thc
intellect to know that Mark
pointed out the apparent irony

of my statement about the
Christian Myth. I stated that the
book (the bible) may just as easily be deemed religious mythology as Homer's Iliad. He finds
it absurd that I should so
"pain-stakingly" quote verse
by verse to make all of my
points from a book I called
mythology. Though I do not
myself dismiss it as mythology,
he is right: How can one drawn
upon a source that he or she dis-

credits? Let this be an opportunity for us to distinguish the
narrative accounts of the
Gospels from the Word of
Christ. A myth by definition is
a narrative explanation. The
Christian Myth that I refer to is
the narrative explanation (virgin
birth,

etc.)

throughout the Gospels, not thc
principle Word of Christ which
is impertinent to the Christian
Myth. His Word is an articulation of his Father's mind and
will. I must rely not on nana
tive accounts but on the Word of
God articulated in scripture.
For it is through the Word of
God that we obtain salvation:

"Receive with meekness the
implanted word, which is able
to save your souls" (James

1:21). And as Christ affirmed.
"It is the spirit that quickeneth:
the flesh profiteth nothing: the
words that I speak unto you,
they are the spirit, they are life"
(John 6:63).
Mark also admonished me
in response to the following; "1
will live as one who thirsts for
righteousness, desires to be
poor, to be merciful, to be
meek..." He then asked me a

series of questions serving to
convict me of my apparent selfrighteousness. I must say to

Mark however, that aside from
the misinterpretation of my
words as complacence, it is
obvious that the words are not a
claim, but a proclamation. A
proclamation of faith in His
Word. I am not righteous, that
is why I thirst.
Mark states, "We would not
need a savior if" we can live up
to God's standard." He is right.
That is why I choose to know
Christ instead of knowing about
him. It is the word of God that
confirms and makes it evident
that love, only, is always only

good. Only good it is to live
and exist for God by actively
and labouringly loving thy
neighbor. Christ replaced all
precepts with the living principle of agape; love at work in

Lucinda Williams, the Dixie
Dylan who has gracefully
graced the American musical
stage with songs of the South,
the back roads, and romances
that have seen their back end.
Lucinda Williams has not gone
crazy, but without her art, it
might otherwise be a close
thing.
Her new album, "World

Without Tears," strikes me as
the perfect album for drunken
sots in the bar at about two in the
morning, right before the bar is
ready to close for the weekend.
It is weary music, angry music,
desolate music. Williams sings

Williams is a troubadour of
black clouds, scars, bruises, universal wrongness, and brokenness. To paraphrase W.B. Yeats,
for her, the center does not and
has not held. It's just that she
makes the shattered remnants of
that center beautiful.
Williams may sing of atonement, but there is little redemption. Perhaps her truest statement on the entire album comes
in the title track where she says
"If we lived in a world without

not a happy album, but perhaps
it is simply an album for our

April night, but with one
band member missing, the
trio on stage heated things up
for us. Completely instrumental but still maintaining
their hard edge, their sound
can also be heard in bands
such as Godspeed You!
Black Kmperor and Do Make
Say Think. Some of their
songs lasted as long as 10
minutes in length, but the
audience's attention was kept
for the entire time. A tribute
to Super Mario was thrown
in between songs and they
finished off their performance with a bass solo.

As the bottled water
market grows, industry
consultant Arthur von
Wiesenberger envisions
a more informative
approach for categorizing
brands. He said consumers would benefit
from three distinct categories to better understand issues of taste and
quality. Here are his proposed categories with
definitions and sample
brands:

of bottled water comes
from a natural spring but it
is not transported for bottling. It is minimally
orocessed.
Artesian or spring water:

It's media madness
Two guys in Halifax, Nova Scotia, bought some
take-out fried chicken and went to the apartment of
one of the men's sister to eat it.
But they mistakenly went into the unlocked apartment across the hall and were chowing down in the
living room when the owner walked in. A discussion
ensued. Then a fistfight.

OH, DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH, YOU MORON
In a misguided attempt to promote civility in public
debate, a councilwoman in Palo Alto, Calif., has proposed rules suggesting participants refrain from
smirking, rolling their eyes or employing "body language or other nonverbal methods of expression, disagreement or disgust."
Once the plan became public, the councilwoman
was herself loudly derided and received piles of what
she termed "hate mail." Traumatized, she may vote
against her own proposal.

Shocked citizens organized a recall election and
voted him out of office.

SHE HAD NO TROUBLE IDENTIFYING HIM
A 42-year-old man robbed a market in Newport,
N.H., despite the fact that the cashier was his own
niece.

A man went to a house of ill repute in Kaarst,
Germany, but was so drunk he didn't remember having sex or what type of sex he may have had. So he
sued to get his money back.
The court agreed saying the brothel should have
provided receipts for specific services rendered.

I LL NEVER, LET YOU GO, DARLING
When a San Antonio, Texas, woman informed her
husband of 15 years that she was leaving him, he
padlocked a 25-foot chain around her neck.
Someone noticed this when the couple dropped
their kids off at school, and called the cops. When
they arrived at the couple's home, they found her
standing in the driveway while her husband slept in
the passenger seat of the car, holding the chain.
He was charged with unlawful restraint.

ANYWAY, HE'LL PROBABLY DENY IT
A bird added a smoldering cigarette butt to the
nest it was building in the ceiling of a Harrisburg, Pa.,
home, and Fire Chief Donald Konkle told reporters he
believed that this was what caused the house to burn.
But you'll have to take his word for it.
We weren't able to interview the bird," he said.

DON'T FORGET THE WHIPS, HONEY
A 40-something female lion tamer in a German circus was teaching the circus director's 20-year-old son
how to tame the big cats when one thing led to another and they fell in love.
She ran off with him and also took eight lions and
two tigers.

ALBUM FOR IRAQ WAR VICTIMS
Paul McCartney wasn't kidding Sunday when
he said he had no plans to retire.
McCartney was one of 18 pop stars who each
recorded a song free of charge for "Hope," an
album to raise money for Iraqi children affected by
the war. The album, which was released Monday,
includes songs by David Bowie and Moby.
McCartney, who talked about the CD in a British
Broadcasting Corp. radio interview Monday, also
called for a ban on cluster bombs because of the
way they harm civilians.
"It would be great to outlaw these cowardly
weapons," he said.
Cluster munitions contain hundreds of small
"bomblets," which sometimes fail to explode until
years later. Anti-landmine campaigners, including
McCartney's wife, Heather Mills, say children are
particularly at risk because they can mistake the

bomblets for toys.
On Saturday an Iraqi girl sustained hand
injuries when she handed a cluster bomb to four
American soldiers in Baghdad.

KIDMAN'S WINNING FASHION SENSE
The Council of Fashion Designers of America
digs Nicole Kidman's sense of style.
The Oscar-winning actress will receive the
2003 CFDA Fashion Icon Award at the organization's annual awards gala on June 3 in New York.
The nominating committee is made up of 450
fashion designers, retailers and the press.
Previous winners include Lauren Bacall,
Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren and Elizabeth
Taylor. Not too shabby.
EVEL RETURNS
Evel Knievel, the former daredevil who jumped
his motorcycle over cars and canyons in the
1970s, gave exclusive rights to his life story to a

small Los Angeles theater company for "Evel
Knievel: The Rock Opera." We kid you not.
Jef Bek, the project's musical director, has been
working on it for two years.
Bek, 40, said he envisioned an homage to
Knievel and to the musical spirit of 1970s bands
such as The Who, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd.

Was it the idea of some perverted male who wanted to watch women run in
short skirts?
In our opinion it's a disgrace. If we were to look across the field and see our opponent wearing skirt,

would be to laugh. We certainly wouldn't be intimidated. There is no way that it
looks tough, and how would you ever expect to get
physical m a skirt (no pun intended). Athletes should always look like they are ready to compete; and wearing
a skirt does not give
the impression of an athlete who wants to be taken seriously.
Now don't get us wrong, we are not bashing any sport that wears a
skirt. We are not taking anything away from how difficult
those sports are. What we are trying to say is that female athletes would look more athletic they were wearing
if
a proper uniformaA jersey and a pair of SHORTS! That's what a proper uniform should consist of.
When we think of a skirt the first thing that comes to our mind jsj someone who has to be careful of how they walk, sit and
carry
themselves, because they dorivt want anyone seeing anything they shouldn't be seeing. Now, how can someone

or games requiring physical strength, agility or stamina. Now, where in that definition does a skirt come
into the picture?
