Freshmen in Evergreen Commons causes concern

ty hadn't made a mistake.

Freshmen students living
in Evergreen Commons and
their parents faced two very
different situations as the
semester began.
While the students were
being welcomed with all the
luxuries they could ask for,
their parents were welcomed
with all the bills they could
handle.
"The students living in
Evergreen Commons probably
like it," Vice President for
Student Affairs, Dr. Linda
Koch said of the freshmen
forced to live in the new
apartment
building, "but
moms and dads don't like the
price."

Some moms and dads, in
fact, have been very active in
letting Lock Haven University
officials know they don't
appreciate being forced to foot
a bill which could have cost
them a lot less if the universi-

The mistake was failing to
save dorm space for many of
the freshmen who were conditionally accepted through the
Summer
Development
Program (SDP), which is
designed to aid students
whose educational background may not have prepared
them for higher education.
The result the university had
to break its mandatory rule
stating that all freshmen must
live on campus.
Since the decision to allow
these freshmen to live off
campus was made so late.
Executive Director of the
LHU
Foundation
Jerry
Updegraff explained, thc
freshmen and their parents
were unable to find any offcampus housing other than
Evergreen Commons.
"A few parents were concerned about the unexpected
change in their student's housing
assignment,"
Jen
Jcrousek,
manager
of
Evergreen Commons noted.

"We referred (them) to the
University, and we are confident university officials will
do all they can to address
those concerns."
However, Updegraff said,
"We've certainly tried to
respond to (the concerns) but
they weren't satisfied with our
answer."
At least four disgruntled
parents have made unfruitful
efforts to set the mistake right.
Steve and Shalane Gee. the
parents ofa freshman living in
Evergreen Commons, have
contacted
(Evergreen
Commons) management as
well as officials from the university and
the
LHU
Foundation in search for
answers.
"First and foremost,"
Shalane Gee explained, "we
felt like we were being discriminated against because
our (SDP) freshmen were the
only ones singled out to live
in Evergreen Commons."
"My son wanted to live in
the dorms with a friend from

high school, but because my
son was in the summer development program and his
friend was not, they could not
live together," she added.
That student is now living in a
dorm with one other person.
The Gees argue that they
were not prepared for their
freshman son to live in an
apartment with full amenities,
where he is responsible for
cooking his own meals and
cleaning.
Their most recent effort
was a letter to the editor in the
Lock Haven Express, published on September 6,
explaining the situation in
attempt to find support from
more parents in similar situations.
According to Michael
Heck. SDP director, the parents were made aware of the
housing concerns on the first
day of-orientation.

you Nam* 3tf
Ivan made the mess, or did we?
Daniella De Luca
Opinion Editor
Ever hear thc expression.
"Don't wash your dirty laundry
in public"? What about. "Don't

throw your trash in the river"?
What was left of Hurricane
Ivan sure had its way with the
northeastern region of thc
United States this past weekend.
The power went out multiple
times, areas were flooded or
under constant flood watches
and warnings, bridges and roads
were closed, traffic was backed
up because of detours. A curfew
was even set up from 11 p.m. to
6 a.m. as a safety precaution.
Yet, the town all came out on
Saturday to marvel at the high
waters and try to help manage
the water levels.
Lock Haven, Pennsylvania
went to sleep Friday night only
to wake up Saturday morning
with the dyke-levee brimming
with muddy water and several
side roads including the one
behind the PUB parking lot that
were blocked by water.
Honestly. 1 didn't think that it
had rained that much overnight.
Apparently, it had.
Perhaps what worried me
the most was not the incessant
rain or thc wet cuffs of my jeans
but instead it was all the trash
and debris that I saw floating in
the water the next morning. I
noticed plastic bottles, tin cans,
tennis and softballs and various

other items that don't belong in
the water floating downstream.
Had people thrown trash in
the water or had thc trash somehow made its way from thc
proper receptacles into the
water? Any way you look at it.
it's definitely not good for the
environment.
I took a drive with friends on
Saturday to go to thc Lycoming
Mall where they detoured us
back the way we originally
came, which took us at least an
hour and a half longer than it
should have to get there. Road
delays and thc parked cars on
the side of the road made for a
lot of angry drivers that day.
People were pulling over to
the shoulder to peer over the
guardrails at the farms and
things that were underwater.
Vehicles were lined up with
flashers on as crowds of people
swarmed the edges of the banks
taking pictures and shooting
home videos. Something newsworthy happened and they
wanted to get a first-hand
glimpse of the natural disaster
that swept our area. It was devastating, but a time that will be
remembered for a long time.
As I was standing on thc
dyke-levee walkway, a woman
from the town grabbed my arm
as I too snapped a picture. After
all. a flood isn't something that
you see everyday, and there is
good reason for that. Otherwise,
we'd all be commuting everywhere in canoes or kayaks. And,

although that sounds quite
appealing to those adventurous
types, it isn't very practical.
this
woman
Anyway.
grabbed my arm and said.
"Look over there. The water is
almost covering those flags."
Sure enough, the water level
was so high that the United
States and Pennsylvania flags
that a community resident had
displayed were almost totally
submerged underwater.
We then stood there for
awhile, her with her family and
I with my friends all gazing out
at thc water. There wasn't much
else to do unless you wanted to
take thc long way around thc
mountain to get anywhere.
Ivan made a fine mess of
things, but I can't help but think
that things were already messy
enough, even before Ivan was
involved. This explains my
thoughts on the trash. We're
filthy people and we throw
everything away. Bottles and
cans that could have been recycled somehow made their way
into the river. I just don't see
how that is possible without
some sort of human contact
being involved.
We should be aware of the
cleanliness of the community in
which we live. In order to make
it more livable and beautify it.
we must take care of it. So. take
that extra second to tic off your
garbage bags, at least so your
trash doesn't end up floating
down the Susquehanna River.

Vote for Kerry to defend U.S.
Dear Editor,
Your fellow classmates may not
realize it. but they may have the
power to determine the results of
this presidential election.
In the 2(X)4 election, there are
about a dozen states that pollsters
have declared "too close to call."
The 537-votc margin of victory in
Florida in the 2000 election is evidence that every vote does count.
In 2004. the election may be determined by the 18-24 year old vote,
thc group that traditionally has thc
lowest voter turnout in elections,
but also has the most at stake in the
results of an election.
And
Pennsylvania may turn out to be the
deciding state in this election.
My advice to your classmates is
this. If you have not already done
so, register to vote, now. If you
come from out of state (especially if
it is not a battleground state), make
sure you register to vote using your
college address. By registering and
voting in a battleground state, your
vote isactually more important than
it wouldbe at home. Your vote can
help sway all ofthe electoral votes
of the state to one of the two candidates.
I plan to vote for Senator John
Kerry and urge you to do likewise.
I have met Mr. Kerry a dozen times,
and he is a thoughtful, intelligent
man, who deeply loves his country.
There is no doubt that John Kerry as
president will defend us from
threats, both domestic and abroad,
while defending our rights as
American citizens.
I am troubled by the war in Iraq,
a war that we were told was begun
because of the clear and present
danger that Iraq posed to us,
because of their possession of
weapons of mass destruction and
their ties to terrorist organizations.
We were even told that the US
knew exactly where these weapons

were. Well, more than a year later,
we have found no weapons ofmass
destruction, nor have we found evidence ofany links between Saddam
I lussem and Al-Oacda. 1 am tumbled by the corruption in our current
administration, in that it allows
vice-president Dick Cheney to continue to make millions of dollars in
profit because ins formercompany,
I lalliburton. receives billions ofdollars of no-bid contracts from thc
government. I am also troubled, as I
have seen George Bush and Dick
Cheney dismantle much of the
environmental protection that both
republicans and democrats have
constructed over the past fifty years,
John Kerry, on the Other hand, has
worked tirelessly for nearly 20
years to protect our air, water, and
natural resources. He knows that
our economy, environment, and
quality oflife cannot and should not
be sacrificed for the sake of some
corporate polluter.
If you can find time in your
schedules. I urge you to volunteer
for the Keiry-Fdwands campaign.
They are looking for anyone who
can put in a few hours here and
there. If you can't volunteer, you
can still make sure that you vote.
Don't let any papers or projects or
tests get in the way of y our constitutional right to determine who will
lead this country.
Remember, if only 538 more
college students in Florida had
voted for Al Gore in 2(KK). there
would be no Patriot Act, we would
not have the largest deficits in history, and we would not have lost over
1,000 men and women in a needless war in Iraq. This year, fewer
than that could make the difference
in Pennsylvania.

Early Thanksgiving
Lindsay Johnson
Co-editor in Chief
Happy Thanksgiving. Yeah.
I know it's only late September.
But I'm just as thankful now. if
not more so, as I will be in two
months.
I'm thankful beeause I wasn't hurt by the flooding that
Hurricane Ivan brought this past
weekend, and no one I care
about was hurt by it, either. I'm
thankful because even though I
didn't have the sense and foresight to stay home this past
weekend instead oftraveling all
over the state, I still got everywhere i needed to go safely.
A lot of other people weren't
so lucky. Many people in this
area were devastated by the
heavy rains and flooding that
we saw from Ivan.
Cars were destroyed as the
water took over the streets.
Some were not able to make it
off the roads before they were
shut down, and were forced to
abandon their vehicles and
wade through the water to dry
land.
Lives were interrupted as
people were forced to leave
their homes, or at the very least,
detour their travel plans. Not
only was it tough for residents
to evacuate their houses, but it
was also hard for officials to ask
them to do that. As the Jersey
Shore police chief. Martin
Jeirles, was quoted as saying in
Monday's Express. "The things
we do to uproot people, we
don't do because we want to
uproot people. I really feel for
people."
Homes were lost, and with
them people's most treasured
belongings, family heirlooms,
and their memories.

What happened this weekend made me think of a question that you see on all those email surveys that people pass
around to their friends the one
that asks what three material
possessions you would take
with you if your house caught
fire. Being caught in a flood is a
similar situation. 1 used to
blankly answer that question
with whatever came to mind
first. But this weekend I found
myself wondering, if it were
me, what would I take?
I also found myself wondering what I will take with me.
emotionally speaking, when
this is all over.
I decided that first and foremost I will take thankfulness. I
will be thankful not only that
my life and belongings were
spared, not just that those ofmy
loved ones were also spared,
but also that we're all still here
to talk about it. Lives could
have been lost, but instead, all
that was lost was some material
things that can be replaced a
whole lot more easily than a
life.
I'm also taking with me thc
idea that we. as a human race
and as an American society, can
still get together and take care
of each other. Locally, communities are banding together to
help bail each other out and
clean up. Those not directly
affected are also pitching in.
And on the road, kind strangers
are offering directions over the
CB radio to avoid blocked off
sections of flooded road. It
gives me hope that if we can do
it in times of trouble and strife,
that we can do it in normal
times, too. 1 was reminded this
weekend that there are still
good people out there.
Share the good. Share the
thanks.

"I admire your superior intellect

noticed some girls sporting thc "1

Give me a break, what they should
really wear is, "I Love Jocko Frat

it would be more accurate and not

The fact of the matter is life

First year collegiate athletes
sometimes have a little trouble
adjusting to a different level of
play, but freshman Samantha
Stoyer has needed no such
adjustment period.
As the Eagles traveled to
LaSalle Tuesday night, both
teams seemed to struggle on the
offensive side of thc ball.
Opening the second half of
play. Lock Haven seemed to
come out with a new resurgancc.
They had a majority of the
possessions in the second half,
recording four shots, but they
could not connect on any scoring chances. As regulation
ended with neither team scoring, pressure lingered over both
teams as the extra stanza started.
Thc Eagles gained control
and spent their time driving the
ball at LaSalle's cage, where
LaSalle allowed the Haven
three penalty corners and the
chance to end the game.
On the last corner, the ball
was deflected off the goalie's
pads. Amanda Alderfer was in
the right place at the right time,
and she as able to pass the ball
off to Stoyer.
Stoyer took advantage and
hammered the ball to thc back
of the cage, notching the game
winner for the Bald Eagles.

! During the summer 6f 2003,1 was in Los Angeles when the Kobe Bryant
.Scandal broke, Every new station out there interrupted regularly scheduled programming to say that they "brought it to you first." Kobe was giving a news confer■ence after the allegations, and one reporter kept commenting on if his tears were
real or for the camera. From that point until last month, Kobe was claiming he was
innocent, but he was facing a life sentence. I hope he did not commit this-crime.
Not because of what he was facing, but for the victim involved in the incident. The

about the female's past history that would come into play during the trail. It began
to feel like something with the trial was going to happen. Then the news broke that
she had dropped the case because of personal reasons.,
After the case was dropped Kobe made a statement apologizing to the female
involved, and then more rumors began. I have heard people say he forced her to
idrop it; that her parents wanted to just go after thc civil case. Thc thing that I heard
that made me want to write this article was made by a male in my class, stating that

Behind every great athlete is a great trainer. Trainers are often overlookedand
unappreciated, yet they hold a vital position on all athletic teams. Besides treating
an athlete for injury related purposes, they help make the rehabilitation process as
comfortable as possible for the individual. Unknown to most* people is the counseling aspect of training. Trainers use certain counseling techniques to develop reasonable time tables to put the athlete back into their athletic environment and to
also motivate them to achieve certain goals they make. The Lock Haven University
athletic teaming department and Chair Yvette Ingram shouldbe commended for
the job they do with LHU athletics. Since this is my last year of participating in
varsity sports at Lock Haven, I would like to give special thanks to football trainers
Yvette Ingram, Alex, Andrea, Becky, Beth, Colleen, Kayla, and Mark.
...I know many of you have seen the Major League Baseball incidentbetween .fen
and Frank Francisco of the Texas Rangers. Plenty of people are outragedby what
he did and can't believe a professional athlete would throw a chair in the stands,
While I don't condone what he did, I empathize with him. Every professional athlete is a human being like you and I. They eat, sleep, and use the bathroom like
everyone else does, If a fan or any person for that matter taunts and talks about

OU's Perkins needs one punt return
Pair o nail-biters keeps No. 1 Irish
for touchdown to break NCAA record undefeated in Women's Soccer

Jack Beesley
Oklahoma Daily

Wright talked ofhow imporPerkins is because of how
often he gives the Sooner
offense good field position. He
said that when the other teams

NORMAN. Okla.
From
now on, each time he returns a
punt. Antonio Perkins will be
looking to make history.
With his NCAA record-tying
eighth punt return for a touchdown last Saturday against
Houston, the Oklahoma faithful
will be on pins and needles
every time the Oregon Ducks go
three-and-out.
Perkins' next punt return for
a touchdown will set a new
NCAA record.
Perkins, who along with
returning punts for the Sooners,
starts
at
cornerback
for
Oklahoma, said he feels that
every time he touches the ball
there is an opportunity to score.
"I feel like with my blockers,
they go out there and give their
hearts out for me every play,"
Perkins said. "I feel so confident
and comfortable back there
catching thc punts right now, 1
feel like every time we touch
one it's going to be a touchdown."
Perkins has done well returning punts for the Sooners, as he
returned four punts for touchdowns last season. Now, after
returning for a touchdown last
Saturday, he needs only one
more to break the record.
Oklahoma defensive ends
and special teams coach Bobby
Jack Wright said Perkins is a key
player for the Sooners' special
teams because of thc threat he
poses every time thc opposing
team punts.
"He means a great deal to us,
especially from the standpoint
of field position." Wright said.
"Give him time and he has thc
ability to take it to the house."

kick away from Perkins, they
often end up being short and bad
kicks, which is good for the
Sooners.
Perkins said the other team is
hurting themselves when they
kick away from him.
"It's their loss if they kick
away from me." Perkins said.
"They're losing more field position."
Perkins said that he does not
like to fair catch punts, especially when he gets in trouble with
thc coaches.
"I really don't like fair catches. Coach Wright kind of got to
me a couple weeks ago about
fair catching, so I've been being
smart about that." Perkins said.
"If I have three dudes in my
face, I have to fair catch instead
of getting a zero-yard gain or a
negative gain. I'm trying to be
smarter on my returns."
Perkins has been an impact
player in his three previous
years at OU. After redshirting in
2000. he played in every game
in his first season in 2001 and
earned all-conference recognition for his punt returns his

sophomore year.
Perkins said his best memories from past seasons have been
playing in the Sugar Bowl last
year and getting to go to the
Orange Bowl with the team as a
redshirt freshman. He said those
two games have given him motivation for this season because he
wants to get back there.
With all of his accomplishments as a punt returner. Perkins
poses another threat to opposing
teams while in thc defensive
backfield.
Perkins said he enjoys playing the different aspects of the
game, but his defensive play
gives him more ofan opportunity to showcase his ability.
"I like both of them,"
Perkins said. "1 take great pride
in my defensive play. 1 worked
extremely hard this summer to
get stronger so 1 could be more
physical and be a better player."
Perkins has six tackles from
thc two games this season, with
five of them being unassisted.
Perkins has always been a
double threat on the field, but it
was not until his Oklahoma
career began that he began making an impact on defense.
He said that at Lawton High
School he was a receiver and a
punt returner, but he has enjoyed
his time in the defensive backfield at Oklahoma.
The defensive side of the
ball has been the area that
Perkins wants to emphasize as
he prepares to move on to the
next level.
"Mainly, I'm trying to showcase my ability on defense. I
want to be known as a defender," Perkins said.
On Saturday, it will be interesting to see if people will be
focusing on more than Perkins'
defense.

After establishing itself as
the team to beat through the
first six games of its non-conference schedule. No. 1 Notre
Dame carried that reputation
through its first two games of
Big East conference play as
well.
The Irish (8-0-0) emerged
unscathed from their first
weekend as the top team in the
nation, posting a pair of narrow
one-goal victories on the road
by blanking Connecticut 1-0 on
Friday and closing out
Syracuse 2-1 on Sunday.
Both games were very
close, and it took a clutch goal
with under eight minutes to
play in each contest to decide
the game. Freshman Amanda
Cinalli buried her fourth goal
of the year in the upper right
corner of the net with 6:26 to
play against Connecticut to
give the Irish their only goal of
the game Friday.
On
Katie
Sunday,
Thorlakson continued her torrid offensive pace by notching
her team-high sixth goal in the
83rd minute to give the Irish
thc lead over Syracuse. The
goal was Thorlakson's third
game-winning goal this season.
Meanwhile, the Notre
Dame defense, led by Big East

The foot of James Wilhoit

Their defense has allowed just
21 shots on goal in eight
games.
It didn't take long for the
Irish to face a stiff challenge
from a conference opponent as
the Huskies gave Notre Dame a
dogfight in the Big East opener
Friday night. In what turned
out to be a defensive struggle,
the Huskies did everything to
keep the Irish out of the net.
UConn goalkeeper Megan
Jessee was solid and often
spectacular, making six saves
and also received some help
when her defenders cleared two
other Irish shots off the goal
line. Notre Dame didn't help its
own cause either, hitting thc
crossbar twice.
But the Irish roster seems to
get deeper every game. Senior
defender Kate Tulisiak scored
the first point of her career
when she intercepted a pass
and then assisted on Cinalli's
game-winning goal.
Tulisiak missed much ofthe
2003 season with a back injury
but is making the most of her
senior-year comeback.
"It's an awesome feeling to
be able to contribute to thc
team like I was able to do

tonight," she told und.com.
"Last spring, 1 gained a lot of
confidence just playing in
games and thc same goes with
this summer"
"Our depth was a key
tonight because of the tempo of
the game." Waldrum said. "It
was end-to-end, like
game."
Syracuse gave the Irish a
scare as well. After sophomore
Jen Buczkowski's fourth goal
of the scason gave the Irish a I 0 lead early in the first half.
Notre Dame held the lead until
Syracuse's Kelly Bailey sailed
a crossing pass into thc Irish
net to even the score at one.
The feat was a rare one as only
two other schools in the last 37
games have come from behind
to tie thc Irish. But with 7:11 to
play. Thorlakson took a pass
from Candace Chapman and
knocked the ball past Orange
goalkeeper Shannon Myers to
provide the difference in the
game.
Despite the win. Waldrum
wants his players to remain
sharp with a lead.
"We basically stopped playing until they tied it up." he
said. "It was frustrating not to
put them away when we had
thc chance."
Notre Dame is now one of
only five teams remaining in
the 308-team pool of Division I
collegiate soccer with an undefeated record. This marks the
ninth time in the last 13 years
the Irish have been perfect
through eight games.

After Leak threw an interception in the next drive.
Tennessee took the early 14-7

UF drove 97 yards in 16
plays to respond, and the Gators

(July 23-Aug 22)
Your taste for nothing but
the best always one of your
most famous traits is definitely heightened. Someone
who appreciates quality just
as much is due to come
along soon -- maybe via
work.

(Apr. 21- may 21)
You've
been
always
famous for willpower
but
something
unbelievably
scrumptious crosses your
path. Don't worry everyone
needs to indulge once in a
while. Go whole hog.

(Aug. 23 -Sept. 23)
You're about to receive a
holiday bonus early. Prepare
yourself to enjoy the best of
everything especially when
it comes to companions. Oh,
stop worrying about work.
Relax and enjoy it.

(May 22-June 21)
Keep one thing in mind
now, no matter what happens: Nature abhors a vacuum. So if something leaves
your life, all you have to do is
prepare for what comes next.
Sure it sounds easy - it is.

(Sept. 24 -Oct 23)
You may be just about
ready to leave home - but
don't take off just yet. Have
Plan B ready to rock before
you pull up stakes. It you
don't, start brainstorming. If
you do
well, what's the
holdup?

(June 22-July 22)
You're set up for enjoying
all the best in life
a taste
and talent you've already
spent considerable time
developing. Expect suitable
and equally experienced
companions to appear. Not
bad,huh?

(Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)
You're in the mood for a
formal -- a formal chat, a formal introduction and if all
goes well, a formal dinner.
Don't worry. Formal doesn't
necessarily mean 'stuffy.' It
does mean 'elegant,' though.

STRANGE BUT TRUE
By Samantha Weaver
Polish burglar Torge Czar came up with an elaborate plan to rob a
jewelry store: He planned to tunnel through a wall into the safe,
thereby retrieving the valuables stored there. He made a slight
miscalculation, though; when he had tunneled through the wall, he
found himself in a food factory. In fact, he fell into a vat of
spinach, where he drowned.

ilm\\\\\m:

Famed author and adventurer Jack London claimed, "You can't
wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club."
It's been estimated (although it's not entirely clear by whom) that
during Colonial times, a male in America who was more than 15
years old would consume the equivalent of 60 six-packs of beer
every year.
The land on which the headquarters of the CIA is located was
once the family estate of Robert E. Lee.
It's still not known who made this pithy observation: "If you don't
have an education, you've got to use your brain."

The word "pizza" first appeared in the year 997. It was contained
in a text written in Latin.

Lost Ark, for all of the ingredithere to recreate it: a
l°30's setting (and a desire to
recreate the world of l°30's
adventure films), a (supposedents are

ly) charismatic, daring hero
(Sky Captain, played by Jude
l aw), a former flame who plays
a pivotal role (Polly Perkins,
played by Gwynett) Paltrow).
and a scenario that deals with
world domination destruction.
The problem is that, where
Indiana Jones kept with the
spirit of the old film serials lhat
it was emulating. Sky Captain
excellently recreates the look of
the era while displaying only
the barest hint of a soul.
Ihe CGI effects of Sky
Captain are indeed captivating
and lovely to look at: if only
one could say the same about
the actors' acting ability, in this
particular film at least. Part of
this may be due to the fact that
the only frame ofreference the
actors had for the whole lilm
was a blue screen. Another factor may be that the plot, even
with its horrendous implications, wasn't particularly interesting. I he final part of it may
be that the script for the film
was hardly the most inspiring
thing ever written; as horrid as
it may sound, this was one of
the few instances where 1 could
have supported plagiarism for
the sake of making the script
better.
Perhaps the best way to
watch the film would have been
with the sound off; visually, the
film was as captivating and
interesting as any film that I've
ever seen. If you watch Sky
Captain and the World of
Tomorrow to be visually dazzled, you won't leave disappointed. If you actually want to
be saiisfyingly entertained, then
I suppose the world of tomorrow is what you'll have to wait
for.

You see them, but they don't
see you. It is a very simple riddle. What is the answer? Well,
the answer is a blind person. To
be politically correct, they are
called the seeing-impaired. Lock
Haven students have probably
seen three of their fellow students who are blind, maneuver
around campus without a problem. Those students, Bill, Molly,
and Jess are very similar in
ways, but they are totally different from each other. They all
have overcome their disability
but they all have a different
story to tell.
William Defibaugh, who
likes to be called Bill, is a senior
majoring in mass communications. The question that most
people ask is why did he choose
this major? Bill chose this major
because he wanted to learn
about being on radio and showing the world that he can do it.
He chose this because it is his
life; it is his passion.
Bill was bom totally blind.
His mother had a virus when she
was pregnant with him that
attacked and destroyed his
nerves that ran from the pupils
and eyes to the brain. As a child
growing up in Bedford, l»a.. Bill
couldn't play with the other kids
like he might have wanted to,
bu( that didn't stop him from
finding other ways of playing.
After school. Bill would come
home and make radio broadcasts
with his radio. He would pretend
to make news broadcasts,
recording and playing them for
fun.
Unlike many similarly disabled children Bill didn't go to a
school for the blind; he went to a
public school. Bill had a student
aid from second grade through
middle school. This aid would

help him visualize

Before you quit, ask for help
Nicole Pinto
Staff Reporter
Are you feeling like you
don't fit in? Are you having trouble keeping up with homework
or class work? Do you have a
problem at home? Do you feel
like no one is there for you? If
you answered yes to any ofthese
questions, you are not alone.
In fact, many people feel the
same way you do, and there arc
plenty of people on this campus
who would love to help you.
Shannon Hnosko, a freshman,
left after only staying here one
week.
She didn't even give it a
chance and said, "It was too far
away from home; I don't think it
was the place for me."
Instead of feeling trapped
and withdrawing from the campus, do something about it. In the
fall of 2003. 1,085 first time, full
time, degree-seeking students
entered the campus. The retention rate for fall 2003 was 71%.
This means that 764 ofthose students returned for fall 2004 this
year. What could have happened
to the rest of that 29% to make
them feel they had no other
option but to give up?
It is common that most students drop out their first year. I
am going to shed some light on
you all. You are not alone and
there are plenty of people all
around you who care to help and
I am one ofthem.
I will tell you about Patrick

you probably know him as Mr.

G

unthreatened by receiving help.
Mr. G. can help set a student up
with the RAP Program (Rise
Above Probation). This program
helps students every two weeks
with a follow up of progress
reports. A form is to be filled out
with questions about the student's grades, classes missed and
why, tutorial sessions, and
papers due. It is not like babysitting but just an extra push in the
right direction.
As Mr. G would say, "This
program is like a seatbelt."
If a teacher refers a student's
name, a letter is sent to the student telling him to contact Mr. G
if he needs help. The student
may then join RAP and attend at
least one study session on a
Tuesday,
or
Wednesday,
Thursday. The student may also
attend five sessions, or as they
called,
are
"Academic
Workshops." The sessions
include Time Management,
Study Skills, Coping w/ College
Pressure. Writing Center, and
Library Research.
Besides the RAP program,
students can seek counseling for

grades.
Sometimes, a student can just go
to Mr. G to talk without joining
the program.
"There are a lot of emotional
problems that never seemed to
exist before," Mr. G said.
There are other programs for
students seeking help in other
areas. Among those are: Student
Support Services in Russell,

Writing Center in Raub, Math
Center in Robinson, Tutorial
Services in Russell, Disability
Services in Russell, Counseling
Services in Russell, Career
Services in Akeley, Human and
C ultural Diversity in Woolridge,
Financial Aid in Russell, Student
Athlete Support Services in
Thomas, Exploratory Studies
Advising in Russell, and Student
Retention in Russell. There are
many people in these departments who can be ofassistance.
Mr. Q said, "Cindy Heaten in
financial aid is just amazing. I
have heard many good things
about her, like she can find
money where other people
can't."
Mr. G has graduated from
Lock Haven University himself
and knows people around the
area well. He likes to think of
himselfas "connected to the people at Lock Haven." In his letter
to students in need of help, he
writes, "Remember I work for
you. Please put me to work."
There are roommates and
friends I am sure you can talk to
as well. You also have professors
in each class and all you need to
do is ask them for help, They
have office hours posted, phone
numbers, and email addresses
you can reach them at.
Don't feel afraid to ask for
help. You will lose out on an
excellent education and that is
hurting yourself even more. If
you wish to seek help now.
please contact Patrick Guerriero

You actually can eat

Bentley offers alternate food options

With free reign and no parwatch over you, going to
college can be a total change,
including what and when you
eat. One a.m. pizza deliveries
and Sheetz runs between late
night cram sessions are some of
the eating habits that students
become accustomed to during
their college years.
But Bentley hopes to change
these habits. Starting tomorrow,
the Balance Mind, Body and
Soul program will be in place.
The goal of this program.
by the Sodexho
Corporation, is to not only
change how students eat, but to
also incorporate knowledge and
fitness tips to create a well balanced life style.
When it comes time to
.hoose what to eat, Bentley
General Manager Richard King
hopes to help LHU students
nake good decisions.
"We can't police what students eat, only offer them balanced diets," said King.
And that is just what the
irogram is about.
Labels such as "Vegetarian"
and "Carb Friendly" will be
placed with foods to allow students to better follow any speial diets they are on. "Well
Balanced" will also be posted
for those who just want to eat
healthy.
Handouts, posters, and
