ices.
After roughly 35 years, the state system looks at buildings to decide if they
should be renovated, and Stevenson is
expected to go through more changes
down the road.
Librarians put forth the idea of renovating a few years ago for two main reasons, Fulton said.
One was because of the dark imprcs*
sion that the library currently gives off
when walking in, due to poor lighting and
the other being the change in technology
over the past years.
Fulton said the new look should "integrate technology with print. We want to
make students more aware of options for
research. We want to make this the infor-

anymore. Instead, librarians will
have their own room to teach research
methods.
For those who have a need to work on
laptops, students will be able to plug into
the connections which will be installed in
the main library for students to plug into.
There will also be a meet and greet
area as one walks through the main
entrance doors between the circulation
area, which is staying to the left, and the
reference desk and services to the right.
All current issues of periodicals will be
put on shelves rather than only being given

that originally began as
"Women's History Week."
According to the National
Women's Histiry Project, the
observance was initiated by the
Education Task Force of
Sonoma County (California)
Commission on the Status of
Women in 1978 with March 8 as
International Women's Day
marking the focal point of the
celebration.
In 1981, Sen. Orrin Hatch
(R-UT) and Rep. Barbara

Mikulski (D-MD) secured a
Resolution
Congressional
declaring a "National Women's
History Week." Soon, state
departments of education from
across the country were encouraging schools to celebrate
National Women's History
Week as a means to "achieving
equity goals within class-

rooms."
By 1987, the National
Women's History Project petitioned Congress to recognize
women throughout the entire

month of March. The resolution
was passed with bipartisan sup-

port.

Sports director speaks to broadcasting students and
stresses the importance of "taking everything with you"
Michelle Hershey
Eagle Eye Staff Reporter
Matt Seyfried, Sports Director for 18 News
WETM-TV in Elmira N.Y., came to Lock Haven
Monday to answer students questions on how to
break into the sports broadcasting business, presented by the Sports Broadcasting Club in their
lecture series on "Professionals in Sports."
Seyfried received his Bachelor's degree in
radio and television at Portland State University,
and took his first job as an intern at a television
station in Missouri, where he learned to write
scripts and direct.
After taking a job in the news department,
Seyfried realized that he wanted to move on to
sports broadcasting. He returned to school and
earned his master's degree at Syracuse University.
Seyfried was a Weekend Sports Anchor at a
television station in Nebraska, and a Sports
Director for a station in Ithaca, NY before taking
his current position at WETM-TV.
As Sports Director Seyfried is responsible for
coverage of high school, college and some professional sports such as NASCAR Racing, hockey,
baseball and basketball.
He said, the best thing about his job is that he's
not in the office from 9 to 5; however, the worst
part is the long hours that he has to work.
Seyfried is also responsible for reviewing
resume tapes for the sports department and gave
students tips on what he desires in potential
employees.
According to Seyfried, a resume tape should
contain the best work of the applicant. The beginning of the tape should have a five-minute slate,
giving the applicants name, address and current
telephone number.
The tape should then show five minutes of
stand-ups, two anchor segments, ten minutes of
package stories and should end with another fiveminute slate of the applicant.
Television stations are not looking at the quality of the tape, they're looking at the person and
their reporting skills. Stations realize that colleges
are not equipped with all the new technology and
that resume tapes sent to them will not be commercial.
According to Seyfried, an organized cover letter and tape show time and effort, which will help
an applicant get the job.
Seyfried advised students to do everything
they can to get their foot in the door. He recommended getting an internship, taking odd jobs and
paying attention in class.
"Everything you learn, take it with you, it's the
concepts that stay the same," stated Seyfried.

He told students, that there are a lot of jobs in
news, but sports broadcasting is a harder game.
"A lot of people are fighting for the same job,"
said Seyfried, "It's important to go into your first
job and show them that you're a hard worker."
Seyfried recommended that students right out
of college start their career in a smaller market at
an entry-level position and work their way up.
He suggested taking a job at a cable station
the first six months after college to get a feel for
the business, adding that cable stations are always
hiring and that they easily forgive mistakes made
by new employees.
Seyfried told students to look for jobs online at
www.tvjobs.com and www.medialine.com; the
sites have entry fees ranging from $15 to $75 a
year. He also told students to look for jobs in
sports broadcasting magazines.
"Everybody out there is working hard to get a
job," said Seyfried.
He strongly emphasized to students the importanzce of experience, developing an on camera
personality and producing a quality resume tape.
Chris Murray, Vice-President of the Sports

Broadcasting Club, said the club is looking forward to bringing more speakers to campus. He
said their focus is mainly on sports because of
their prominence at LHU.
The Sports Broadcasting Club is looking for
people that would like to learn more about the
profession. For more information on the club,
contact Steve Folmar or Chris Murray.

Should religion be taught with evolution?
The decision a couple of

how, with regards to science
and religion. This debate should
also extend to universities and

theirs on those pupils who do
worship in whatever religion. It
is a very fine line that the
schools tread and the case of
Zachary proves this. The story
he read, "A Big Family" does
not mention anything particularly religious, omitting any mention of God, and so it should
have been accepted even under
the current framework. But the
teacher deemed it to be religious
worship, focusing on its context
rather than the actual storytelling content that the firstgraders were probably more
interested in anyway.
An objective teaching ofreligion in schools would prevent
much of the intolerance that can
be seen with regards to the various religions. It must also
include the study of why people
choose not to believe or worship. This would promote an
equality of understanding under
which children could develop
their own system of beliefs
rather than one that is imposed
on them either at home or in
school.
And so it must continue into
college. People should be

allowed to practice their religion
without feeling scrutinized but
at the same time must not interfere with other beliefs. At the
graduation
ceremony
for
instance, proceedings were commenced with a prayer. For anyone who chose not to, this was
an uncomfortable moment.
There is a distinction between
learning and worshipping and
this was the latter. The practicing of a religion should not be
allowed at a public event such as
it was at the graduation ceremony as it shows a disregard for
different standpoints.
When the Kansas State
Board of Education allowed the
teaching of evolution to be reintroduced to the curriculum it
took an important step towards a
more inclusive system of teaching. This can be continued by
the teaching of religion in
schools, as an objective viewpoint will not only better nonbelievers understanding of what
it is that makes people worship,
but will also give believers an
insight as to why some people
hold different viewpoints on
religion.

to park in the same lot that
belongs to the building. Nobody
else really has ever parked here,
because it's far from campus.
The dirt commuter lot is only 25

price for that sure isn't what we
pay. That really isn't fair. As I
said before, our cars are even in

paying for security.

"Grandfather Clause" should be

bring it into the building, as I've
seen in the past.
The way I figure, in order to
have a drink and relax, we have
to go out to the bars. By their
nature, bars are more expensive
than drinking at home. So, the
price that I am forced to pay for
a few beers out at the bar is
greater than that of what I would
pay at home. That difference
can add up. I'd say, since it's
being forced on us, why doesn't
the University give all who qualify an "Imbibing Compensation
Rebate" for all the money we
lose?
Ah, it was just a corny idea
anyway. But, why must it be
dry? Simply allow only students
who are over 21 to live down
here. Most of us are old enough
to drink anyway. This way, discrimination doesn't fall on the
university, it falls on the law that
says only those 21 and over can
legally drink alcohol. It isn't age
discrimination if it's state law, is
it?

want to keep this article. If anybody wishes to reach me for a

Vietnamese artist, Khanh Vo, displays work at LHU
Sumer Buttorff
The Eagle Eye
The sculpted masses that line the Sloan Fine
Arts Center gallery mirror one artist's enduring
memories of Vietnam, painter and sculptor Khanh
Vo, whose exhibition opening was held Monday.
Khanh Vo, born in South Vietnam, was among

refugees who traveled by boat to America during
the fall of Saigon. In 1975, Khanh arrived in San
Diego, California, the city where his mother later
took her life. His physical displacement after the
Vietnam War and his emotional concentration on
his mother's suicide has been influential to Vo's
art.

In his work, Vo attempted to re-create his
uncertain and unsettling, past. His trip to the
United States and the homeland he left behind
were among Vo's motivations. Through his work,
he searched for a resolution to his history. "[We]
long for a place we still don't know much about,"
Vo said. "You always think about the places where
you grew up."
He began as a painter and later developed the
necessity to express himself beyond the confines
of a two dimensional surface. By creating sculpture and installation works, Vo extended his reach
to incorporate and make use of space.

Vo selected all of the colors, materials, and the
environment carefully for his designs. These qualities give way to the sensual and metaphorical
implications of his work.
At first glance, one may not see into the depth
of Vo's works. Some observers found Monday's
lecture helpful in guiding them to a better understanding of the conceptual content.
"Vo's presentation was helpful in gaining
insight," said Art major. Aaron Held. " It is art that
definitely needs an explanation."
For some, Vo's art may beg for words.
However, after understanding the real significance
of his work one can look through the eye of the
artist and understand his legacy of uncertainty.
Vo's work will be on display until March 23 in
the Sloan Fine Arts Center. The gallery is open
from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8
a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, and 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.
on Sundays.

weekend, was created inside the gallery and all of

No, it's not something sordid. It's Snood (rhymes with

game that has swept the country,
especially college campuses,

where it has lured students into
losing sleep, if not losing points
off their grades.
"You can pretty much go
into any dorm and people have it
up on their laptop," says
Findeisen, 18, who's studying
international relations.
It's easy to play the game,
which is downloaded from the

TOURISM:

»

Miller had hoped to hold the folk song concert in the fall, but «
due to the choir performance at the Carrillon dedication cercmonyj
the musical selections were pushed back to the spring.
The performance included the University Choir, Cantori, Vocal
Jazz Ensemble, and the Men's Ensemble.
Aside from the choirs there were also soloists that touched the- j
audience, such as Amanda Rose Culiver singing "Greensleave"
accompanied by Luke McDaniels on the guitar. Some musical
jyj
pieces also made the audience laugh, such as Michael Conners
with "I Got It From Agnes."
The next preformance by the choir is April 29 at 3 pm in Price
Preformance Center.

DCNR seeks volunteers to
help clean state forest
-

The
HARRISBURG
Department of Conservation
and Natural Resources (DCNR)
is looking for volunteers in 18

counties across the state to clean
up illegal dump sites on state
forest and state parks lands
Administration's Forest Land
Beautification Program.
Illegal dump sites are on
public forest and park lands in
Adams, Bedford,
Cambria,
Cameron, Clearfield, Clinton,
Cumberland,
Elk, Fayette,
Franklin, Fulton, Lebanon,
McKean, Mifflin, Monroe,
Perry, Pike and Potter counties.

, "Trashing public lands is
like vandalizing a beautiful
painting," DCNR Secretary
John C. Oliver said. "When
uncaring people dump their
daily trash, appliances, tires and
other unwanted items on lands
owned by Pennsylvanians, not
only are they spoiling the beauty of our land, but they are introducing other hazards—pollutants and risks —to citizens and
wildlife."
The
Forest
Lands
Beautification Act, signed into
law in 1998 by Gov. Tom Ridge,
provides up to $7.5 million over
five years to clean up existing
dumps on state forest and park
lands by recycling or properly
disposing of the waste.
In partnership with its

contractor.
PA
cleanup
CleanWays. DCNR has identified an estimated 150 illegal
dumpsites in state forests and
state parks.
Last year, DCNR and PA
CleanWays developed the criteria and procedures for the
cleanups through the process of
cleaning 14 "pilot" sites.
More than 130 volunteers
and contractors worked with
DCNR and PA CleanWays to
remove 82 tons of trash, including more than 900 tires, from
the pilot sites in eight state
forests Bald Eagle, Buchanan,
Delaware, Gallitzin, Rothrock,
and
Tuscarora
Sproul.
and
State
Tiadaghton
Bendigo
Park.
"Local involvement is the
key to our success," Oliver said.
"Cleaning an active dump site
without the involvement oflocal
communities is like putting a
Band-Aid on a wound. We need
to get to the root of the problem,
and we need the help of local
citizens and businesses to help
us get there."
Helen Ostermiller, project
manager for PA CleanWays,
noted there are 147 illegal
dumpsites in state forests across
the state plus another estimated
25 sites in state parks. Of those
sites, 100 sites are active and
need local involvement.
"All it takes is one person

—

—

willing to be involved to get the
ball rolling," Ostermiller said.
"We then work with them and
DCNR personnel to identify
other possible sources of
involvement in the area, and we
use our expertise to devise a
plan for the cleanup."
Ostermiller noted that in
2000, Nick Bolgiano, an avid
birdwatcher in Huntingdon
County, Connie Kling, who
lives near a state forest in Perry
County, and David Turner, a
camp owner from Clinton
County, each spurred a major
cleanup of a dump site in their
neighboring state forests. By
calling l-877-7PA-FOREST(l877-772-3673) and expressing
their willingness to be involved,
these sites were moved to the
top of the list of sites to be
cleaned.
"We're looking to clean
between 15 and 20 active sites
in 2001, and expressed local
interest will be a key factor in
sites,"
these
cleaning
Ostermiller said.
The sites will be selected
February through March.
Interested individuals and
groups are encouraged to call

Game Commision
Counts Elk

Commission discovers new Minow

-

HARRISBURG
The
Game Commission has estimated the state's elk population to
be 622 animals, based on three
days of aerial survey work over
the Allegheny Mountains in
Clinton,
Cameron,
Elk,
Clearfield, Potter and Tioga
counties. The 2001 count is up
from 566 in 2000, when the suran
vey was last performed
increase ofnearly 10 percent.
Raw ley Cogan the PA game
commissions Elk biologist said,
"Based on recent trends, we
believe the elk herd will reach
about 700 by the fail of 2001,
and it could be nearly 1,000 by
2005. The elk population has
been climbing steadily since the
late 1980s, growing anywhere
from 10 to 14 percent from one
year to the next."
"We believe the elk population has stabilized in the traditional range of Elk and
Cameron counties," Cogan said.
"However, natural dispersal and
the three trap-and-transfer projects aided elk numbers in other
areas to continue to increase. In
fact, we have received reports
of elk being spotted as far east
as western Lycoming County."
"This year's survey is a very
conservative figure, based on
other things we saw from the
air. For example, while flying
over State Game Land 14,
observers saw a lot of elk tracks
in the snow, but did not see the
animals under a stand of
conifers. In this particular survey block we had counted 45
elk last year, but were only able
to confirm four because of the

-

thick vegetative cover."

The wild elk inhabiting
dents of 50 elk released in
Clinton and Clearfield counties
in 1913. From 1913 to 1926, a
total of 177 elk mostly from
Yellowstone National Park
were released in seven counties
to serve as a breeding base for
what was hoped would develop
into a population that could sustain hunting.
Eastern elk were found
throughout Pennsylvania prior
to its colonization. Their numbers declined as civilization
advanced, mostly as a result of
unregulated hunting and deforestation. Elk were scarce in
most areas by the beginning of
the 1800s. They have been protected in the Commonwealth
since 1931.

"I knew that I had something different. And I knew
what I thought they might be,
but I couldn't be certain until we
were able to take them back to
the lab. What I didn't know at
the time was that this species of
minnow had never been found
in Pennsylvania before," said
Spear.
Spear's identification was
confirmed last week by Dr. Jay
Stauffer
of Penn
State
University.
The pugnose minnow is
approximately 2.5 inches long,
has a compressed body, small
head and blunt snout with an
almost vertical mouth. It occurs
in sluggish, clear, vegetated
waters over muddy or silty bottoms. The pugnose minnow
occurs in the Mississippi River
Drainage and ranges from Ohio
south to Louisiana. Future surveys will be done to determine
population size and geographic
distribution in Pennsylvania.

HARRISBURG--The minnows captured by Spear that
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat
Commission has identified the
first known occurrence of the
minnow
in
pugnose
Commonwealth waters, adding
a new species to the list of fish
inhabiting the state.
The find came as a result of
a project to create an Index of
Biological Integrity (IBI) for the
Commonwealth. An IBI survey
provides an evaluation of the
species present in a fish community. The overall health of the
fish community can then be
used as a measuring stick to
assess the stream's relative
water quality. The Commission
is developing an IBI for
Pennsylvania in conjunction
with the and the DEP.
As part of the IBI development, Commission Fisheries
Biologist Rick Spear and DEP
Water Pollution Biologists Ray
Hasse and Joe Brancato conducted a Fisheries survey
September 23, 2000 on the
Cussewago Creek, Crawford
County, in the Allegheny River
drainage. Nineteen fish species
were collected, including two

When I first pulled into the
parking lot at the head of
Walnut Creek, just before it
poured into the giant lake, my
eyes where fixed upon the
stream that appeared on my
right. Even from a distance of
about one hundred yards and
through the car window I could
see the fish I traveled three
hours to catch.
My heart
jumped, I had heard stories, but
none did the sight justice.
My second thought was,
where the hell am I going to
park? The parking lot was jampacked. Boats and large trucks
were parked everywhere I
looked After circling the parking lot about three times I finally found an empty spot and
brought my worn out car to a
rest. Even before I could finish
pulling my key from the ignition
the doors of my car were flung
open and my buddy
and I were in a mad dash
to get into our waders
and hit the creek.
Rods clicked and
reels whistled as Ernie
and 1 and the rest of the
fly fishing club prepared
to do battle with these
giants of nature. There
an excitement that
about us we strolled to
the creek side. As 1
topped the bank beside the
creek, my excitement vanished.
My stomach turned as I looked
down upon rows and rows of
people.
The creek disappeared
amidst a sea of humans. The
large fish that were once so easy
to see from the car now stood
hidden behind a wall of fishing
tackle and oversized rods. Not a
single hole remained open,
every possible well was stuffed
full of every guaranteed- towork Steel head bait.
Determined to find my way
from the maddening crowed, I
ventured up stream to no avail.
The farther I went the more
waders and vests I saw. I finally settled down, having decided

away from the barrage of
spinners thrown their way.
Often they became the victims
of foul hooking. I saw the huge
scars that decorated their backs;
some even still wore the spinner
in their sides. It is required by
law that all foul hooked fish are
returned to the water, but I feel
this may be an even bigger disservice to the fish.
I began to wonder if anyone
standing on those banks saw
what I saw. I was sick to think
that no else realized how incredible these fish were and what we
were doing to them. I caught
two fish that day; one of them
was the biggest freshwater fish I
ever caught. Both were hooked
in the mouth. A young guy
standing next to me on the bank
helped me net the monster. He
said to me "looks like it's a legal
hook, keep him".
I held the fish in my hands
nd stood for a quick picture,
then turned back to the
creek and returned my fish
to the waters. The guy
looked at me. "You
must be from around
here," he said. I
replied, "nope, first
time here." "Why
did you throw him
back," he asked.
I
simply
responded, " I know I caught
him, got the picture to prove it.
He knows I caught him, but he
doesn't have scars to remember
it, and everyone here knows I
caught him, and was man
enough to put him back."
As I sat by the shores oflake
Erie later that evening and
reflected on what the days
events had brought, I was proud
to know that I had not scared a
single fish. I returned from Erie
with nothing but the picture of
my fish and the visions in my
head. Yet, I was richer than any
man who loaded his limit of
three steel head into a cooler,
which would eventually end up
in his freezer, because I had

The following conferences
could have more than one team
in the field. Each conference
receives an automatic bid, but
could wind up with more than
one team in the field, especially
if there is an upset winner in the
conference tournament.
BIG WEST: If Cal-Irvine is
the regular-season champ, it
could be enough to secure an atlarge bid. Utah State probably
needs to win the league tourney
to make the NCAA field.
COLONIAL: Richmond is
ineligible for the conference
tourney because it is joining the
Atlantic 10 Conference next
year. The Spiders.who are the
regular-season league champions, must hope for an at-large
invitation. George Mason is the
favorite for the automatic bid.

was third among the 11-team
field, tallying 73 points. A combined total of 30 individual allconference awards were merited
by both squads, including 16 in
the men's competition. The
Bald Eagles captured an impressive three of the four relay titles.
Three Bald Eagles, Sauls, Mike
Gomes, and Matt Stinson were
four-time All-ECAC performers.

The Haven forces were led
as he repeated his 1999

standout performance to earn
his second ECAC Outstanding

Eagle reclaimed his title in the
500 meters in a meet and school
record time of 1:04.77 and was
fourth in the 800 meters
(1:59.32). He overtook two runners in the anchor leg of the
3200-meter relay to lead the
LHU team, also consisting of
Bryan Walter, James Eagler, and
Mike Gomes, to a time of
7:53.48 and the victory. Sauls
then came back and ran a 1:56
split in the third leg (800 meters)
of the winning distance medley
relay team, as he and teammates
Mike Gomes, Brandon Shiposh,
and Ryan Comstock crossed the
finish in 10:38.86 for the conference title.
Matt Stinson and Jeremy
Bradley went one-two in the
pentathlon, as Stinson compiled
a school record 3,572 points for

Boone, who made one appearance for 5.2 innings, has an
ERA of 2.47.

"Defensively, we didn't perform. The defense needs to

Newcomers Katie Lord and

overall.
"Katie Lord will take this
team to the next level," said
Green.
Bower made a short appearance, giving up four runs on five

certainly not a common occurrence.
Enter the 2001 Lock Haven

on the Bald Eagle roster are the

It was irony that brought
sophomore basketball player
Kristopher Holtzer to Lock
Haven University, rather than a
planned outcome by his father
Al, who played two seasons of
varsity basketball from 1976 to
1978 for the Bald Eagles.
"I hadn't planned on Kris
coming here. In fact, I'd rather
he hadn't,'' said Al Holtzer.
"Another coach had recommended him to LHU and it
unfolded from there."

"I didn't want to come here
at first but I came up here for a
visit and I liked the guys on the
team," said Kris. "I knew I had

a good chance to play a lot right
away and that was a big thing."
In his freshman season, Kris
was given plenty of time on the
court, playing in 24 of 26 games

and starting 20 of them.
Proceeding Kris, Al Holtzer

had a successful basketball
career at Lock Haven, where he
met Kris's mother, Wanda. In
his two seasons of play, Al averaged 7.3 points per game under
Head Coach Dick Taylor, who
became assistant coach of the
New York Knicks after Holtzer
graduated. Al Holtzer was also
named Most Valuable Player of
the team his senior year.
Now, Al Holtzer coaches the
basketball team at Delaware
Valley High School and teaches
health and physical education.
"Both my parents went here
so they like it a lot that I decided to go here," said Kris Holtzer.
"My parents had a large influence on my basketball career. It
is definitely a family thing. I
have been playing basketball my
whole life."
Al Holtzer has kept Kris
exposed to the game his entire
life, playing

"He quit playing me after my
junior year," said Kris. "After I
started winning, he starting quitting. No more one-on-one."
"It was more of a sense of it

anything else," the elder Holtzer
explained.
These days, Kris's parents
make it to every home game and
try to make it to all of the away
games in the PSAC East, continuing to cheer their son on as
they had all his life.

Senior Jason Lucas has certainly made the most of the time
he gets, and as his teammate
mentioned, has played a major
role in the recent success of the
Bald Eagle basketball team.
The 6-7 forward's basketball
career has spanned many years
and many different places.
Jason began playing in third
grade for a summer league
among fourth and fifth graders.
Graduating from Germantown
Academy, he received several
all-league and all-city academic
and athletic accolades in a variety of sports. At the suggestion
of his mother, however, it was
basketball he chose to pursue at
the collegiate level. Jason didn't
take the direct route to Lock
Haven.
He began his college career
at Lafayette College, but unfortunately, injured his knee and sat
out his freshman year. After a
year at Lafayette, Jason transferred to Millersville University
where he played for two seasons, one under then Marauder
assistant coach and now Lock
Haven Head Coach John
Wilson. But something still didn't feel right, and after much
deliberation, Jason made the

sophomore years, 1975-1976.
Charlie and Barbara began to
date during their sophomore
year at LHU. Some time later
Barbara became pregnant and
had to end her outstanding basketball career. Little did they
know that they would soon wed
and bring yet another LHU star
into the world.
When asked if she ever wonders what might have become of
her career, Barbara replied, "I
sometimes wonder what might
have been, but then I look at thewonderful, sweet boy I brought

into the world and the wonderful
man I married, and say I wouldn't change a thing."

Jason's choice to attend Lock
Haven was another decision that
none of the Lucas' will ever look
back on in regret.
"One of the main reasons
why 1 came to Lock Haven was
because I once played under
Coach Wilson and I liked the
way he coached and how he
treated me and I also have relatives in the area, it was just an
ideal situation for me."
