GS major now available
By TINA BROOKS
Staff Reporter
A major in General Studies
has been approved for Lock
Haven State College and the
program has ten students
enrolled this semester according to Dr. Hugh Williamson,
Dean of the School of Arts and
Sciences.
Final approval for the General Studies Program came
from Pennsylvania Secretary
of Education, John C. Pittenger in July. Late last spring
the program was approved by
all campus review boards.
A limit of 20 students are
allowed to be admitted into the
program for the first year. All
students presently in the program are upperclassmen. In
the fall of 1977,fi-eshmenwill
be able to enter college as a
General Studies major.
Dr. Williamson describes
the major as "a very openended interdisciplinary
option". As part ofthe program a student has to complete the 60 semester hour
general education requirements, which is mandatory for
any LSH student. The remaining 68 semester hours needed
for graduation are used for
courses, internships, independent studies, etc. that meet
the educational needs and
career objectives of the individual student.
The General Studies major
is offered as either a Bachelor
of Science or a Bachelor of
Arts Program. If a student
wishes to take it as a BA
program he must also fulfill
the liberal arts seminar and
foreign language rfequirements.
Mainly, the General Studies
program is aimed at the
non-traditional student. Dr.
Williamson defined the nontraditional student as a student who has a very high

degree of self-direction, a
student whose educational experience may be extended
over a long period of time or a
student whose vocational objectives are not fitted by any
exisring program.
"Now enrolled in the program," stated Dr. Williamson,
"is a girl who is interested in
doing graduate work and
research in physiology of
physical education and related
matters". She will be a
scientist but the area of
application will be physical
education. She will be a scientist
but the area of application will
be physical education. She
needs work in both science and
phys. ed."

When a student applies for
the program he is asked to
identify his unique vocational
and intellectual objectives. Before registering each semester
the student who is admitted tc

the program must submit a
credit proposal and he must
indicate his particular objectives for that semester.
The students proposal is
reviewed by the General Studies Review Board and the
Dean of the School of Arts and
Sciences. If the students'
proposal is not approved the
review board and the Dean will
work in conjunction with the
student to develop an acceptable proposal.
Members of the General
Studies Review Board are: Dr.
Arden Holland, School of
Education, Dr. Dora Vandine,
School of Health, Physical
Education and Recreation; Dr.
Paul Klens, Natural and Mathematical Science; Prof. John
Johnston, Social Science and
Prof. May Ireland, Humanities. Mr. Robert Bravard,
Director of Library Services, is
an ex-officer member of the

ihis coming weekend,
v.r-tmber 17, 18, and 19, the
innionwealth Association of
dents wili hold their first
tewide conference of the
)-'77 academic year. Once

leks and months.
d Cl -^ a wide range of
'.••pii,. trom pending legislatior: affecting students and
young people, to possible
services for our members.
At present there are several pieces of legislation which
we are interested. One is
House Bill 1833. the "Capital
Appropriations Bill." This bill
would provide state funds for
new construction and needed
repairs and improvemfents at
all state facilities. Lock Haven
would recieve money for lighting Sloan Theatre, renovating

Thomas Fieldhouse and for
purchasing new land for future
use.
Another bill is Senate Bill
224, the "Commonwealth
University Act." This bill
would combine all of the state
colleges into a university system, simalar to the Suny
system now operating in New
York.
However, this bill
seems to be stalled at the
moment, with now action
likely to be taken this year. In
the past we have supported
the "Post Card Registration
Bill," which now allows voters
to register by mail, and the
ill-fated 19 year old drinking
bill.
We are investigating the
possibility of operating a
cut-rate travel program for our
members, and are looking into
other servces we could possibly provide.
At any rate, this is what
we are doing now. Is this what
you want us to be doing?

To the Editor:
To the Students of LHSC:
The students of LHSC are
faced with the same problem
that has faced mankind from
the very beginning of time;
that problem is "APATHY."
Most students don't really
care what happens in a lot of
situations because they are not
directly involved. Some have
had no problems returning
books, cashing checks, or
trying to drop a course-so they
are notreally concerned about
a fellow student who has run
into this problem. It is time
though for all students to make
a decision, either "for" or
"against" some of these situations. Get involved! Get the
Facts! Find out how a problem
may affect you in the future as
it presently affects your fellow
student.
Get your Senators and Representatives to form some
committees to look into these
student's problems, but
you've got to help don't just

Hellnva Band — by Angel
Here is the next Led Zepplin and the way Led Zep's been
going it seems they want to give their title away. Their last LP,
Prescence was good enough to laugh at. Jimmy Page and Robert
Plant might think that one can moan for singing and then the other
play a quick guitar riff then back to the moaning to capture an
audience. How wrong they are!! The masses are not that much
asses.
By just looking at the members of Angel you would swear,
"oh, just another British band." But wait, names like Mickey
Jones, Punky Meadows, Frank Dimino can't be all that bad. They
must be Americans. Yep, and Americans who want to give us
music to be proud of. These guys are so good that they could back
up the Stones, Zep and Floyd and still have the crowd going crazy
over them. Their music is not all studio like Queen and Kiss. Kiss
makes up for this in their act even> though the music is overiy
distorted.
In Angel there is Barry Brandt on drums and Mickey Jones as
the bassist. Greg Giuffraia plays organ, piano, clarinet,
harpsichord, mellotran, string ensemble, and all synthesizers. (I
can't wait to see what new instruments he picks up for the next
LP.) Punky Meadows in on guitars and Frank Dimino takes care of
the vocals.
The album. Helluva Band is the Angel's second. The first
song, "Feeling Right" starts out with some good synthesizer. It's
difinetly a good mood opener. Punky plays some amazing lead
guitar series and then the synthesizer comes in to play the same
series. They both take turns showing off for a few minutes then
both instruments entwine which makes it hard to figure out which
instrument is which.
The second song, "Fortune" starts out with synthesizer but
at a much slower speed also there is church singing eavesdropping
in the background. The song ends with a wild barrage of
synthesizers attacking the songs.
The third song is "Anyway You Want It" which is a good rock
and roll dance number. It holds the same beat and doesn't change
style. Not much synthesizer here.
The last song on side one is "Dr. Ice" which clearly shows the
style of Frank Dimino singing. Many times he extends his notes
and keeps them floating with the synthesizer.
The second side starts with a song, "Mirrors" which is

on sports
A few weeks ago, I wrote a
baseball column with my predictions for teams making the
playoffs and the World Series,
and also some individual awards, but it looks like I'll
have to throw that adumn
away and write this one
instead. So much has happened lately, showing that baseball, as well as any spwt, is
unpredictable at b ^ .
The most surprising episode,
as any baseball fan is aware, is
the sudden collapse of the
Philadelphia Phillies, coupled
with resurgence by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Nfost people
had die Phillies locked into die
first place position, with a 13
game lead only two and one
half weeks ago. That lead has
now shrunk to five and one
half games, and is in danger of
shrinking even faster before
the season is over.
My personal prediction is
diat die Phillies will still win
the National League East, due
to die fact tiiat tiie Pirates
cannot keep expecting the
excellent pitching they have
received lately, and the Phillies cannot expect to stay in
their hitting slun^ much longer. Sooner of later, these
Phillie bats will start cranking
again, and the Lumber Company will be fading back.
Tbe Reds ought to win tiie
NL West, and tiie Yankees will
win die AL East. The AL West
is more interesting, because
Kansas City's injury-riddled
pitching staff is barely able to
keep the team treading water
fiom a stixjng Oakland challenge.
Much of Oakland's challenge will depend on a suit

filed by A's owner Charlie
Fuiley in court to free him in
selling three of his star players
pitcher Vida Blue to tiie
Yankees, along with pitcher
RoUie Fmgers is successfull in
his suit, Oakland will lose
those three players for money,
but no players-thus killing off
the A's chances for this
season. Hopefiilly, tiie decision will not be rendered until
after the season is over-thus
giving die Oakland team a
chance to win their division
this year. Because of all their
troubles, I tiiink Oakland will
fall short and Kansas City will
end up on top in the American
League West.
Going out on a real limb

do such a service for fellow
students. Then where will the
cost of the activity fee go??
As for hiring Fred, consider
the higher prices you may be
changing the fellow students
who are commuters or are
doing their student teaching.
Is it fair to make a profit for the
"benefit" of all students by
charging approximately onefourth of the student population for this service?? I have
eaten in the Eagle Wing
thousands of times over a five
year period and I have never
had a sandwich that did not
meet sufficient meat standards. But, if someone doesn't
get his money's worth it could
be becouse of a poor investment of his own time and
efforts to get reliable services
for all his fellow students as
well as himself.
Maybe a student or two
would be willing to help you
serve on a committee to
investigate the advantages of a
four day week and an unlimited drop-add period! How
about it?? Speak now or
forever hold your peace!
A student concerned about
his fellow student would not
allow the "restriction of pedestrian travel on the Glen
Road" to become his "fetish"
but he might realize that
someone allowed an "adult" a
driver's license so that he/she
may break up a 15 mph law to
run down yourself or a fellow
student. Right!!
As for escalators and
monorails, two legs are better
than one or even none — or
have you forgotten about your
fellow students who have
wheels for legs and sticks for
eyes??
Some problems are of a
moral or spiritual nature, but,
then again not everybody who
acknowledges God as the
Supreme Being, even considers God's Word when deciding
about an abortion or the North
Korean situation. Yes, again
you are dealing with Human
Nature, Human Error, and
Human "personbality" conflicts. But be careful how you
decide to react to certain
problems as you may be

As for poor spending of
student "^unds, whose fault is it
that six thousand dollars was

you there to voice a "NO" vote

fellow students who play-acted
and enjoyed something which
he/she truely beleived in and
had faith in that project

Yes, APATHY runs rampant across America and tht
campus of L.H.S.C. Students
must stand up and make a firm
decision about all of life's
problems and the student
must consider all factors involved.
Serve on those

another-fast pacer. The second song "Feeling's" is the slowest
and mellowist song off the LP. At times i\ie vocals remind me of
Queen's. The lyrics are quite nice and deserve attention. Here is
a verse:
Feelings reach out and hold me,
Hold me close by your side.
So you see you've become a part of one,
A part which has helped me to live.
Can't help myselffi-omthis toturing itiside,
Possessed by love is a pain I cannot hide.
The next song, "Pressure Point" steps the pace back up with
some quick guitar and vocals mixed with many types ol
synthesizer. But the leads in this song drag out and could be much
shorter. The nest song, "Chicken Soup" is a lot like "Pressure
Point" so there is no need to discuss it.
The last song Angel's theme is a catchy song structly
instrumental. It was also done on their first album with
synthesizer as the basis but replaced by guitar on this LP.
Angel is one band to watch out for. Beware big groups.
Don't sit on your ass too long or you'll lose your seat.
I rate it a B+.

Dr. Williamson noted that
the General Studies major is
under the supervision of the
School of Arts and Sciences for
administrative purposes only.
"The General Studies Major
should not be viewed as an
easy way out. In the first place
the student is involved in the
same educational strategies as
any other program. Wliat we
are trying to do is make it
possible for students with
special needs, objectives or
talents to utilize resources of
the college in a special was,"
emphasized Dr. Williamson.
Dr. Williamson said that
this program cannot be used to
obtain a degree in teacher
education. The main reason is
Pennsylvania's system of certifying a teacher by giving
prior approval to a college's
teacher education.
Programs operating on the
same principle as LHS's General Studies program are not
uncommon in the nation. LHS
is the first state college in Pa.

to have such a program.

exciting educational development since I have been at this
college," stated Dr. Williamson,"and that is 22 years."
