SCC discusses Rogers Gym referendum
by Masahiro Ueda
Eagle Eye News Editor_
Anyone who works out at Rogers Gymnasium realizes that the building needs
some sort of renovation. No wonder. After all, it is the oldest and also one of the
most used buildings on campus.
At its Thursday night meeting, the Student Cooperative Council (SCC) discussed
the possibility of a future student referendum to ask students whether they feel the
renovation of the gymnasium is necessary
and, if so, to what extent students should
cover the price.

The discussion began when a bill named
the "Rogers Gymnasium Ballot Question
Proposal Act" was introduced by Senator
Lori Packer.
University President Craig Dean Willis,
who was present at the meeting said, "It's a
good idea to have a referendum on this
matter because this will test the will of the
students."
If renovation is to be done on the gymnasium, it would cost approximately $2.5 million, according to a feasibility report presented by Vice President for Student
Affairs Dr. Linda Koch.
If the renovation plan is to be done, it

would be financed through a 20 year bond,
but whether the students have to pay the fee
through an increased student activity fee is
still undecided.
"It might be a better idea to run a student
survey to see what the students need," Willis said.
According to Willis, a big renovation on a
campus building used to be initiated by the
state. Beginning in the early 1980s, however, "the Commonwealth began to get out of
the school building," and the decision was
instead made by the student body as to
whether a campus building needs renovation.

John Pellock, Parsons Union Building
(PUB) administrator asked whether a historical building such as Rogers gymnasium
can be qualified as a registered historical
building and be entitled to some kind of
state subsidies.
"We wish, but the building is not registered as such," said Willis. But if the state
is to give a subsidy, money will not be given, but rather, a restriction, Willis said.
The SCC voted to discuss this issue in the
future. "This is the project for the students
who will be here in 2020," Koch said.

"Many students of Lock Haven University
and numerous other schools are faced with
the rising cost of education," said Jaime Piraino, s e e Corresponding Secretary, in a
letter to all student leaders. "Most legislators now feel that decreasing funding and
cutting taxes are pivotal. Should it be education that receives the blunt end of these
measures?"
Students who are concerned with the rising costs of education at state universities
now have an outlet in the form of an organization named CLASSS (Committee of Legislative Affairs for State System Schools).
"The BSGP [Board of Student Government Presidents] of the SSHE [State System
of Higher Education] schools have a goal to
make students more politically aware," Piraino said. "They want the students to tell
the legislators they can't keep decreasing
our funding."
CLASSS is a lobbying group that will
deal with the legislative affairs of the state
universities, Piraino said.
Pirano hopes to get students from the
SCC clubs and organizations involved.
Every student is eligible to join, he said.
"Don't stop Investing in the Future" is the
message CLASSS would like to send to the
public, according to a letter written by Jeremy Haugh, BSGP Chair. "We feel that this
message gives people the idea [of] how important the State System is to Pennsylvania
and how important it is to continue investing in the education of Pennsylvania's stu-

dents."
The first goal of CLASSS at the University is to get 35 percent of the campus registered to vote. On Feb. 27 and 28 the
SCC set up tables in Bentley to get students
to register to vote. As a result of the voter
drive, roughly 25 to 50 students were registered to vote, according to Piraino.
State Legislator's Day has also been organized to give students a chance to voice
their concerns to legislators. Students will
be given this chance today at 8:30 a.m. in
the PUB Meeting Room 2. Two of the
legislators who will be present are Mike
Hanna, state representative for the 76 district, and Doyle Corman, state representative for the 34 district, according to Douglas Bicket, SCC vice president.
"We were the first [university in the State
System] to start Legislator's Day," said Jason Cristofaro, SCC president. "In that aspect, we are ahead of the other SHEE
schools.
State System Rally Day will be held in
April. This day will allow the 14 SSHE
schools to go to Harrisburg to show legislators that students care about the rising cost
of education, Piraino said.
Students will be allowed to visit legislators and voice their concerns. They will
also be asked to follow this up by writing a
letter to their legislator, he said.
"It will benefit students to get involved,"
Piraino said. "It will determine their educational future. Student don't have a' big
voice like big business or older people.
But if we get together we can influence the
legislators."

Sexual Harrassment Policy up for review
To the Editor,
Below is a copy of the Gender Discrimination/Sexual Harrassment Policies and Procedures for Lock Haven University. When approved, these
policies will replace the policy now in force.
I would like to request that these policies and procedures be published in
the Eagle Eye so that all students have the opportunity to review them.
Any comments should be given in writing to Dr. Karen Harvey, associate
professor of history, Dr. Karen Elias, assistant professor of English, or to
me by March 31,1995.

3.
Such conduct has Ihe purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering
with an individualis work or academic performance or creating an
intimidating, hostile, or offensive working or academic
environment lo a reasonable person.
Types of behavior which may constitute sexualliarassment include, but
are not limiled to
'Sexist, sexually suggestive or intimidating remarks or behavior;
'Inappropriate and offensive uninvited sexual advances;
'Solicitation of sexual activity or other sex-linked behavior by

'Coercion of sexual activity by threat of punishment;
'Sexual assault.
SUPERVISORY CAUTIONS
Faculty and supervisors should be aware thai amorous or sexual relationships with students or sut>ordinale
employees are strongly discouraged at Lock Haven Universiiy. Due to the inherently unequal nature of a
relationship in which one parly supervises, advises or evaluates the other, Ihe apparent consensual status of an
amorous relationship between such parties is suspect even when both parties have given voluntary consent In
such a situation, it is the ethical and professional responsibility of the person in Ihe position of power lo relinquish
decisions regarding Ihe subordinate and to remove him/herself from the supervisory role. In sum, such
relationships have Ihe potential for adverse consequences, including the filing of charges of sexual harassment, and
thus any person in a supervisory capacity enters at peril into amorous or sexual relations with a subordinate.

GENDER DISCRIMINATION/SEXUAL HARASSMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

PROCEDURES FOR RESPONDING TO GENDER DISCRIMINATION/SEXUAL HARASSMENT

GENDER DlSCRlMINATION/SEXUAL HARASSMENT POLICY STATEMENT

All parties involved must clearly understand that gender discrimination/sexual harassitient is not only a violation
of Universiiy Policy, it is a violation of slate and federal law. As a result, Ihe complainant may proceed in one of
three ways: (1) through the University procedure (described below), (2) through the legal system (stale and federal
agencies and/or the criminal justice system), or (3) through a combination of tolh. The complainant should inform
the University if s/he intends to proceed through the legal system. Following the University procedure does not
preclude pursuing Ihe complaint through Ihe legal system.
The Universiiy policy seeks to encourage students and employees to express freely, responsibly, and in an
orderly fashion their opinions and feelings about any problem or complaint of gender discrimination/sexual
harassment. Deliberate or malicious false accusations of gender discrimination/sexual harassment will not be
tolerated. However, any act by a student or University employee of reprisal, interference, restraint, penally,
discrimination, coercion, or harassment-overtly or covertly-against a student or employee for responsibly using
this Policy and its Procedures may itself be a violation of the Policy subjecting Ihe perpetrator lo disciplinary
action under this Policy if appropriate.

Lock Haven Universiiy is committed to providing a learning and worlcing environment that enhances the
dignity and worth of every member of its community. To this end, the community must be free from
discriminatory conduct of any kind. Thus, because such conduct subverts the well-being of the college
environment, abuse, discrimination or harassment of any individual will not be tolerated.
Gender discrimination/sexual harassment in any form is not only contrary to University policy but also morally
reprehensible because it undermines the dignity of community members and often represents an unfair
exploitation of power.
As a university, we take seriously our responsibility to educate all members of the community about the nature
of gender discrimination/sexual harassment, its effects on both individual and communal well-being, and the steps
necessary to combat it. l>ock Haven Universiiy is committed lo equality of opportunity and freedom from
discrimination for all of its students, faculty and staff.
Gender discrimination/sexual harassment and all forms of sexual intimidation and exploitation are of concern lo
Ihe University. Governed by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 which prohibits sex discrimination
in education. Title VII of Ihe Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits sex discrimination in employment, and the
Pennsylvania Human Relations Acl of 1955 (and their amendments), the Universiiy seeks lo prevent and correct
such actions. Gender discrimination/sexual harassment is unacceptable conduct and will not be tolerated in any
context at Lock Haven University, whether il be in a faculty/student, faculty/faculty, supervisor/employee,
student/student, worker/co-worker, or other relationship regardless of Ihe formal status of Ihe persons involved.
Individuals who engage in such behavior are subject lo appropriate corrective action which, when warranted, may
include termination of their relationship wilh the University. In addition, such persons may be held personally
liable lo the target of such behavior and be subject lo sanctions independent of those imposed by the University.
Under Title IX, an individual is the victim of gender discrimination if he/she is, on Ihe basis of sex, excluded
from participation in, denied the benefits of, or subjected to discrimination under any education program or
activity operated by the University. In addition, under Title VII an employer commits gender discrimination if il
(a) fails or refuses to hire, discharges, or otherwise discriminates against any individual with respect lo his/her
compensation, terms, conditions or privileges of employment, because of ^uch individualis sex, or (b) limits,
segregates or classifies its employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or lend lo
deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his/her status as an employee,
because of such individual's sex.
Sexual harassment, which is a form of gender discrimination, occurs in a variety of situations which share a
common element: the inappropriate introduction of sexual activities or sexual comments into the work or learning
situation. Though not limiled lo the following circumstances, often sexual harassment involves relationships of
unequal power and contains elements of coercion, for example suggestions that academic or employment reprisals
or rewards will follow the refusal or granting of sexual favors. For purposes of this Policy, sexual harassment is
defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a
sexual nature occurring when:
1.
Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly
a term or condition of an individual's employment, or of a
student's academic status or treatment;
2.
Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is

Master Schedule

mix-ups

Due to misinformation many students went to the Bookstore this past
week expecting to find the Master Schedule there. These students left
very disappointed and the matter was brought to my attention several
times during the course of the week. Since the beginning of the semester Dr. James Smalley, associate dean of academic administration, and
the Eagle Eye planned to have the schedule in the Bookstore by the beginning of next week. The Master Schedule will be in the Bookstore on
Tuesday, March 21 and that is information you can count on!

Folk sound of the '90s hits the PUB

The musical talents of "new folk" guitar
player Karen Goldberg will be coming to
the University's Parsons Union Building
(PUB) Multi-Purpose Room on Thursday,
March 23 at 8 p.m.
Goldberg's gifted guitar playing and her
sultry voice, along with her own unique
compositions, create a blend of '70s acoustics and '80s electronics which is the forefront of the "new folk" sound of the '90s.
She is a nationally known recording artist
with Corbett Records and released her fifth
album "Secrecy" in May of 1994 to rave reviews. Her previous albums, "Slipping
Thru the Cracks," "High Contrast," "The
Lion in Me," and a live recording "Solo,"
also received the same grand reviews.
An experienced performer Goldberg has
appeared with such artists as 10,000 Maniacs, Leo Kottke, The Dregs, as well as appearing at numerous performances all over
the United States and Europe. Goldberg,
who is also an avid animal rights activist,
has recently returned from her fourth European tour.
Goldberg, who grew up in Pikesville,
Maryland, described her singing style to
writer Don Stevens as being "smooth and
kind of silky." Her primary interest did not
lie with music, however, sports was Goldberg's thing. "I was captain of basketball
and volleyball teams," Goldberg said. "I
went to Towson State and got my degree in

physical education."
Goldberg's musical career began during
her third year of college when she was
asked one night by another guitarist to play
a song or two. The owner of the club liked

Room on Thursday, March 23.
what he heard and offered her a job. "It
got me a lot of attention," Goldberg said.

"And someone paid me for playing my guitar. I couldn't believe that!"
After playing in local bars and pleasing
her audiences, she began to compose her
own music at the urging of fans. "That
(writing music) was my therapy," Goldberg
said. "I looked inside and wrote mostly
about relationships."
In 1981 Goldberg released her first album
titled "The Lion in Me." While the album
did well, the record companies in New York
felt she should be "more rock oriented, like
Pat Benatar." "I got my Spandex clothes,
my electric guitar and went through a serious identity crisis," Goldberg said. She felt
this was the most difficult time in her life.
After this identity crisis, Goldberg decided to do her own thing and went to record
her second album titled High Contrast. In
1989 she recorded a live collection titled
Solo. After that release Goldberg got more
into college touring and then scheduled
tours outside the country.
Her latest album titled Secrecy is what
she considers to be her "best group of
songs." Goldberg is most proud of the fact
that she has been able to stay in the music
world for so long.
Tickets for Goldberg's performance are
$3 for the public and free, with valid identification, for students, faculty and staff. For
more information, call the University at

Smith's past does not justify innocence lost
for criminals. I know why it has come to
be that this subject has resurfaced, and that
reason is the topic of this week's column —
the pending trial of Susan Smith.
To refresh your memory, Susan Smith is
the young woman from Union, South Carolina, who just four months ago murdered
her two young children, three-year-old Michael and 14-month-old Alex, by strapping
the youngsters into the backseat of her car
and rolling it into John D. Long Lake. If
you will further recall, Susan Smith then
stood before the nation and boldly lied that
her children had been abducted during a
car-jacking by a black man.
I remember the outrage I felt when the
I'd like to begin this week with a belated news
that this woman had taken

two children. I believe

Once the media frenzy surrounding the

the incident anymore until last week when
As I sat in my Lazy Boy recliner and let a picture of Smith appeared on the cover of
my mind wander, I found myself coming People magazine. The rage I felt just four
back to my column that appeared three months ago resurfaced, and I thought to
weeks ago concerning harsher punishment

myself, "What kind of a woman could do
that to her own children?" So, as it were, I
decided to do a little reading about the
case, and I came across a few interesting
details about Smith's life.
Two weeks ago. Family Court documents
were released detailing that at age 16, Smith
was sexually abused by her stepfather, Beverly Russell. Undeniably something no one
should ever have to endure. Afterwards I
found an article concerning Smith's natural
father's suicide when she was only six years
old — a horror and loss a child should never
have to suffer. That event undoubtedly had
a very negative effect on young Smith.
In fact. Smith herself attempted suicide on
two documented occasions before her marriage at the age of 19. The marriage was no
fairy tale either, with Smith and her husband David Smith constantly at odds over
his continuous affairs.
After finding all these tragic facts, I
thought to myself, "That poor woman."
Then in the same instant, the haunting image of Michael and Alex Smith crept into
my head, and 1 was reminded of who the

real victims in this case were!
I am not heartless. In fact, my stomach
turns when 1 think of the atrocities Smith
suffered in her younger years, but you learn
to cope, not kill your children! Undeniably,
there will be those who say Smith did not
know what she was doing, that the stress
and horrors in her life drove her mad, and
that when she committed this crime she
was "temporarily insane." To that ] say
only this ~ she knew.
She knew as she made the long drive to
John D. Long Lake that she intended to kill
those boys, and she did not turn back.
She knew as she stood on the shore and
watched the car sink to a watery grave,
with young Michael and Alex still strapped
in the back seat, what was happening, and
she stood by and did nothing.
She knew what she had done and what
the consequences of her actions were, and
she stood before the nation for nine days
and lied about the whereabouts of her boys.
She knew — and with that conclusion I
come full circle and can honestly say without remorse, "Susan Smith deserves to die."

With a strong performance in Florida,
baseball fans have a lot to look forward
to. The team traveled to sunny Florida to
face teams from several different states,
most of them being nationally ranked
teams. They left with a record of 6-2-1.

California this season.
He's getting strong innings from junior
Jeff Book and freshman Scott Bennett.
Marco Randazzo, second baseman, is
leading the team in hitting as a
freshman.
Stover is pleased with his team's
performance at this point in the season.
He said, "They left Florida at the top of
their game.
Each player is contributing in some
way with hard work and dedication. "I
have a bunch of guys that know how to
win and have the motivation to win,"
Stover continued.
Lock Haven traveled to Bucknell on
Tuesday, to capture a convincing 6-3
victory, boosting their record to 7-2-1.

In their final preparation before the Eastern Collegiate Boxing Association, Northeast Regional Qualifier, the National Collegiate Boxing Associations (NCBA) third
ranked team, the LHU Bald Eagles, won
three of five bouts at the Shippensburg
University Collegiate Invitational on
March 4. The 10-bout card was boxed before a standing room only crowd at the
West Shore Boxing Club in Mechanicsburg.
Bald Eagle freshman, 156 pound Jason
Pletcher, was voted the "Outstanding Boxer Award" for his Referee Stops Contest
(RSC) win over VMI's Brian Hornaman.
After scoring two standing eight counts in
the first round, the referee, Dave Machamer, stopf)ed the bout at 0:58 of the second
round with Pletcher scoring with solid
combinations and the Keydet boxer caught
in the ropes. With the win, Pletcher, a Castanea native, upped his season to 5-1.
LHU's sensational 125 pounder. Josh
Lander, also upped his season record to 4-1
with a 5-0 decision over Nithya Slew of
VMl. Lander won all three rounds with a
good jab and his own boxing skills. LHU's
third winner was 147 pound Antwan Carson who decisioned PSU's Floyd Brown,
4-1.
The Bald Eagles heavyweight, Karl Fritz,
lost a 5-0 decision to defending Regional
Champion, Joe Povenski, Mansfield, in a
good bout. The 220 Povenski scored a
standing eight count in each of the three
rounds against Fritz. It was Fritz's first
loss after four straight victories this season.

Fritz is expected to drop to the 190 pound
weight class for the Regional Qualifier.
LHU's promising freshman, George
Conklin, lost a RSC at 1:18 of the third
round to veteran Mike Ward of Shippensburg in a 180 pound bout. After an impressive first round, Conklin began to tire and
the Ship veteran had Conklin in trouble
most of the third round, forcing referee Joe
Crockett to step in and halt the bout. Conklin, a former Lock Haven High School 3sport star dropped his first open division
bout of his career after two wins in the novice division.
LHU's sixth entry, Patrick Woody, 132,
did not have a bout because his opponent
from Central Connecticut could not box because of personal reasons. Woody has a ca-

reer record and was the 1993 National
Champion at 119 pounds and 1994 national
runner-up at 125 pounds. Woody, a junior,
will challenge at 132 pwunds at the regional
championships.
The five boxers performed well according to veteran Bald Eagle coach. Dr. Ken
Cox. "We're on schedule. The week off
for semester break will be good for us," he
said. "We've been training since midSeptember without much of a break."
"With Lander, Woody and Todd Stinej
we'll have a super 1-2-3 punch at the regionals," he stated. "Actually, it is as good
a threesome as any team in the nation."
The Boxers will be at Penn State this
weekend for the ECBA-NE Regional Qualifier.

Lady Eagles win in home
by Amy Coles
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
After posting a 1-9 record at the Rebel
Springs Games in Florida over Spring
Break, the Lady Eagles softball team
rebounded on Tuesday by sweeping
Kutztown in the home opener.
"I thought we'd play well against
Kutztown, but I didn't know if we'd win,"
said Head Coach Kim Lindsey.
Some of Lindsey's doubt about her team
stemmed from LHU's suspect defense. The
Lady Eagles comitted 24 errors in 10
games.
At Tuesday's doubleheader against the
Lady Bears, however, the defense was very
solid. Leading the way for LHU, with their
gloves, were junior shortstop Tiff Amore
and sophomore first baseman Amy Harris.
Amore was also a key contributor
offensively in Tuesday's games.
Her
one-out single provided the spark that
ignited a Lady Eagles' four-run fifth inning,
breaking a 2-2 tie. The middle of LHU's
lineup — Harris, sophomore Robin
Kumpaitis, and junior Jen Porter ~ finished

the job Amore began. Each contributed an
RBI in the inning that helped put the score
at its final mark of 6-2.
The second game of the afternoon, which
LHU took 1-0, was even more of a
defensive effort. With the score tied 0-0 in
the third inning, Kutztown threatened to
break the game open with runners on
second and third with one out. Freshman
pitcher Amy Markel registered her first
strikeout of the game on the next batter,
thereby reducing the Kutztown threat.
It was Amore, however, who kept the
Lady Bears off the scoreboard by making a
leaping catch of a line drive to end the
inning.
LHU posted the only run of the game in
the fifth inning when freshman Jess
Baughman led off with a single. Freshman
Danielle Drumheiler's one-out double
advanced Baughman to third base. A
sacrifice fly by freshman Melissa Caldwell
got the run across and ultimately gave the
Lady Eagles the victory.
Lindsey admitted that the lack of errors
was the difference between the team's
performance on Tuesday and in the Rebel

opener

Springs games.
"In Florida, we lost not only because of
physical errors, but mental errors too —
throwing to the wrong bases, missing the
cut-off person and allowing runners to
advance," said Lindsey.
"The mental
errors don't go on the record, but they're
costly."
Due in part to their errors, the Lady.
Eagles lost six of their 10 Florida games by
one run, and two games by two runs.
"The team that played against Kutztown
was the team I know," .said Lindsey.
The Lady Eagles are going to have to
remain sharp if they hope to post a win or
two in their next doubleheader. LHU is set
to host PSAC-powerhouse Bloomsburg on
March 28.
"Bloomsburg is tough, but they're very
beatable," said Lindsey. "And the team I
have this year is definitely capable of
beating them."
Since the game is scheduled to be played
on Lawrence Field, Lindsey is hoping that a
substantial number of fans will turn out for
the game. Game time on March 28 is set to
begin at 3 p.m.
