Angelique M. Bacon, Assistant Director
of Admissions / Coordinator of Minority
Recruitment, attributes the rise of minority
student enrollment to extra recruiting efforts by the OfHce of Admissions, athletic
coaches, faculty, et al.
Miss Bacon also said that the enrollment
system needs a great deal of improvement.
"Retention of minorities once they come to

said. "It is also difficult to get minorities
to come to a predominantly white, rural environment"
African-American freshman enrollment in

31 this year. There was also a total increase state-wide of 3.6 percent.
Asian , Hispanic, and American Indian
freshman students have also risen both at
Lock Haven and state-wide. At Lock
Haven, Asian students increased from three
to five, Hispanic students increased from
five to seven, and the American Indian minority increased from zero to one. The
state-wide totals read like this: Asian students rose 12.7 percent, Hispanic suidents
rose 20.2 percent, and American Indian studentsrose20 percent
The total enrollment of the 14 state universities increased 2.8 percent which
amounts to 2,714 students and a total of
99,082. Of the total, 86 percent of the students eiuolled in state universities are residents of Pennsylvania.

Athletic fund-raising format revised
By Amy Paynter
Eagle Eye Reporter
Suppraters ofthe Bald Eagles Athletic
Club (BEAC) can get "V.I.P" parking and
season tickeu for intercollegiate sports,
specifically basketball and wrestling.
The Bald Eagles Athletics Committee
heas approved a plan that brings all fundraising for teams together in one single effort All contributions can still be specified to go to one or two specific sports,
but are recognized as members of the
BEAC and can get the benefits offered to
all other athletic donors.
The benefits range from Athletic decals
and newsletters for donations of $50 or
more, up to a parking pass and two reserved seats for one sport for the season

for contributing $200 or more, according
to the newsletter sent out to alumni and
parents of LHU students. For donations
above that there are more opportunities
for season passes to sporting events.
The "V.IP." paiking is in the lot next
to Thomas Field House. On the night of
a home event the lot will be blocked off
from campus use after 4p.m. and will be
openeA again 15 minutes after the game
starts. Paiking is not guaranteed, but it
offers a chance tofindclose parking.
Jerry Updegraff, Vice President for University Advancement said that this program is designed to give a sense of community and lo make donors feel that they
are supporting intercollegiate athletics.
"People are already responding to the
need," he said.

OPINION/EDITORIAL
Letter to the Editor:

Academics should take priority over athletics when it comes to parking
To the Editor
It is regrettable that Lock Haven University places a higher premium on providing
paiking spaces for persons attending athletic
events than it does on facilitating its academic program. But alas, this is obviously
the case.
Thursday (November 29th), I arrived at
the University for my 7 p.m. class and was
informed by campus police that there was
no available parking on campus because the
Administration had apfHopriaied all parking
spaces for an athletic event
By the time I had negotiated a small traffic jam. driven off campus, and found alter-

native parking in the lower paiking lots, it
was clear I woukl not arrive at my class until well after it had started and few, if any,
students would still be in attendance.
This is not a new problem. Last year, after similar circumstances, I complained to
then Vice-President Woodbuiy who said he
would "look into" the i»oblem. He didn't
The faculty union brought the issue before
the Administration, and they also said they
would "k>ok into" it
Presumably, they have "looked into" it
and have concluded that the University's academic concems are far less important than
its athletk entertainment concerns.
On the evening in question, reserved park-

ing was made available for season ticket
holders to athletic events. R.O.T.C. personnel and campus police woe assigned to control access to paiking lots. I was told by a
campus security offker that only thirteen
season tickets had been sold, yet the paridng
lots were jammed. There is, of course, no
reserved parking for faculty leaching night
classes, nor for commuting students.
Not only is the LHU Administration
showing a callous disregard for its academic
responsibilities by continually giving preference to every whim of the athletic program, but it also jeopardizing the safety of
commuting students, many of them women, who must walk at night to and from

"Interstate 80": A natural disaster for LHU students

Bravo to Steve Infanti's confession in last

pass the sign that says 'East Stroudsburg

gone to ESU. You'd be there by now
and not have to put up with this stupid
construction!" I know I'm not the only
one with this feeling.
Even CBS Sports broadcaster John
Madden refuses to travel through this state
on 1-80 when he's tooling around in his

"Maddencruiser" Greyhound Bus, calling it
"the biggest pain in the

to travel to Manhattan."
Four years have passed since my parents
shipped me out here, and I don't think any
of those construction trucks has been turned
on in that time. I just know some things
will be the same when I come back out for
my 25th reunion: LHU will still be here,
scheduling problems will be even worse,
and good old 1-80 will still be the same congested mess.

their classrooms and the lower parking lots.
If a whole parking lot can be closed from
4 p.m. until game time for thirteen season
ticket holders, then it is inconceivable that
paiking space cannot be reserved for teaching faculty and commuting students who are
paying tuition to attendregularlyscheduled
classes.
Since this is primarily an academic matter. I strongly urge you to assume responsibility for implementing a polky regarding
access to evening classes that reflects the
University's committment to its educational
mission.
Sincerely.

Steven Infanti co-authors a book
on George Washington and Indian medals
By Kristi Smith
Eagle Eye Reporter
Well, boys and girls, I've got something
to tell you that may come as a suprise to
some of you~Steven Infanti, our notorious
"Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" columnist has recently his first book published.
Not suprised? Well, here's the catch— the
book has absolutely nothing at all to do
with weekly column, in fact, it is quite a
serious book called 3M Peace Prize ; A
Study Qf lbs George Washington AdminS&aQOa aad Treatv si Greenville Indian
Peace Medals.
Abight now you're thinking "Why in the
world would a 26-year-old RA (residence assistant) from Gross Hall whose sanity has
been repeatedly questioned, want to write
about George Washington and a bunch of
medals that were given to the Indians by the
government of the United States?" Well,
Infanti said that he was interested in writing
a book, but could never seem to get one going.
"Everytime I tried to write a novel, I
killed off every character by the fourth chapter," Infanti said. "I've always had the interest but I was suffering from permanant
writer's block."
The interest tumed into reality when he
met his co-author and publisher of the

book. Andy Stednitz. through his family.
Stednitz is ctAlectai of Indian artifacts and
was doing research on the Greenville Indian
Peace Medals and invited Infanti to help on
the book.
"The bode focuses on the importance of
these two medals to expansion," Infanti
said. "The medals are very overlooked by
historians and we hope to make people
aware of them. This isn't the type of bode
that is going to threaten Stephen King's or
Tom Clancy's book sales, I suspect people
will find it interesting."
The book is published by Andrew Stednitz its publishing marks two firsts. "He
wanted to go into publishing and I wanted
to write a book," Infanti said, "Now, we're
both happy."
Infanti has two other books in the rough
draft stage, one of them is a follow-up to
Noble Peace Prizes and, what you've all've
been waiting for, are-writingof his "Confessions" articles which he says will be a
little more "open" than is possible to get
in a newspaper.
"My column is usually "hit or miss",
sometimes it's really funny while other
times it really stinks," Infanti said. 'This
will give me chance to go back and clean-up
the misses."
Infanti served four years in the Army as a
photojoumalist and then enrolled at Penn
State University for a year before he trans-

ferred here. "I had to get out of that place."

About his column (the one is being printed), Infanti said that there two sides to it he
likes the fact that he has become well
known all over campus and he gets to express his views about things. Tthe part
about the column he doesn't enjoy is the
reason for his popularity.
"A considerable amount of the column
make me look like an idiot and I obviously
don't want to be remember for that," Infanti
said. "I thought it would be a good idea to
stop writing it while it was still very popular and well read."

Christmas movies arrive

Editor

Two movies released this Christmas
season aieMisstX and RockvV.
Misery is a movie based on a Stephen
King novel by the same name. Now, to
all King fans, the movie is not as good
as the book. There is less gore and less
blood than the novel. But, let me get
down to the plot
Paul Sheldon is a novelist who has a
car accident on a twisty mountain road.
A woman named Annie comes by, who
claims to be his greatest fan. She takes
him back to her house and starts to nurse
him back to health. She claims that the
reason that she cannot take him to the
hospital is that the roads are too severe.
The truth is that Annie is mad with him
becasue he killed off the herione in one of
his stories. Now, I don't want to ruin
the ending for anybody, but if you're a
Stephen King fan, you should watch it
Just be wamed~the book is more violent.
Another new movie recendy released
was Rocky V. This fifdi in the Rocky

series has Rocky suffering fiom brain
damage as a result of being punched in the
head too much. His accountant also loses
all of Rocky's money. So. Rocky and
his family retum to the neighborhood
where Rocky and Adrienne used to live.
Rocky also takes a new and upcoming
fighter under his wing, and bies to show
him die ropes of the business.
Reactions to this movie are mixed.
Many people that I have talked to (that
used to be die-hard Rocky fans) think that
this movie is the worst of the five. Some
people (that used to think Rocky was an
idiot for getting punched so many timesno matter if he is gorgeous) think Uiat
this movie is the best-it actually has a
plot. But again, I don't want to ruin the
ending for anybody. Just be ready! It's a
cliffhanger!
Well, these are just two of the many
movies that are being released now.
Some odiers are: Three Men and a Little

Handicapped, learning disabled students require special needs
By Kristin Josephson
EagleEyeFeatwesReporter

How would you get to North Hall if you
were in a wheelchair? How would you study
for a test if you were blind? What if there
was a fire in your dorm and you couldn't
hear Uie alarm?
These problems may seem distant you,
but Uiey are every day obstacles the handicai^iedface.
Lock Haven was one of Uie fu^t schools
in Uie state to start a program for leaming
disabled students. The Special Services Program (SSP) has been helping students since
1981.
The students in the SSP program are enrolled in regular classes, but don't usually
take a heavy course load, so they have more
time to concentrate on the classes they
have. For this reason it almost always takes
them more than four years to graduate.
Students in the program can benefit from
many of Uie program's so^ices such as priority regisbation, textbooks on t^ie, tape
recording of lectures, early consultation
wiUi faculty, tutoring, alternate test-taking
procedures. aiidcareerexpk>ration.
Students wiUi leaming disabilitKS are admitted to Uie University Uiroughregularadmissions applications and procedures. These
students are urged to identify themselves in
the optional disability question so Uie University canrecognizetheir need for special
attention. This way Uie University can begin to set up an Individualized Siqiport Services Han CISSP) for Uie smdent
Once classes start these students are urged
to meet wiUi designated SSP staff regularly.
The staff members monitor students'
progress carefully.
With permisskm of the student SSP staff
members set up conferences with Uie students and faculty so professors can be informed of Uie special needs of their leaming
disabledstudents.
Leaming disabilities can come in several

different forms. Some people may have a
slow reading rate or poor comprehension
and retention. Others have difficulty wiUi
sentence structure, firequent spelling errors,
or the inability to copy material direcUy
from a book.
A common interference in leaming is a
problem with time management. People
wiUi this problem usually have a lack of
overall organization, and have a short attention span.
According to Nathan Housley, Director of
Special Services, there are over 100 disabled
students at the University. This number
does not include only leaming disabled students, but also the physically handicapped.
The physically disabled may be easy to
recognize, but it is more difficult to recognize the leaming disabled. Housley said that
the deciding factor in determining someone
wiUi a leaming disorder is the difference between the students' ability and their performance.
Their ability is determined through a series of psychological tests including an IQ
test This way it can be determined of a student is woiking up to his or her ability as
opposed to just taking it easy. Leaming
problems in students usually stem from
neurological problems.
One common leaming ability is dyslexia.
This disorder causes difficulty in reading because letters and wordsreverse.For example, someone with dyslexia might read 123
as 321.
MicheUe, a student with dyslexia, says
\iet problem doesn't usually cause her problems, but sometimes it slows her down.
"Not many people even know", she says.
"The only time I tell my teachers is if I'm
having a problem keqiing up in class."
When she was diagnosed as having the
disorder, she had to leam to read again in a
new way so that the words didn't appear
backward or reversed. Once she found out
what the problem was and took care of it.
she said "things got easier. Before people
Uiought I just wasn't trying hard enough,
then we realized it was something I couldn't

help."
Michelle doesn't consider her disorder a
disability. "I can achieve just as much as
anyone else; sometimes it just takes a little
more effort."
Lock Haven University has a Handicapped
AccessibUity Committee that deals wiUi
physically altering the campus to benefit
the handicapped. Some mcxUfications that
have been made to make the campus more
handicapped accessible are wider doOTs,
ramps, curb cuts, and specially designed dormitory rooms.
The committee also deals wiUi handic^iped parking on campus and has sponsored a handicapped awareness day on November 15.
Rachel, a student, found it "Very difficult" to get around on campus after breaking
her leg. "You don;t realize how much you
can't do until you have to try to get around
on crutches", she says.
Rachel doesn't Uiink the handicapped are
discriminated against on campus, but she
feels much more could be done to help
them. "Even though Uie cafeteria has an elevator, it is less of a hassle to struggle up
Uie steps", she said. She added that people
in wheelchairs don't have that choice.
According to the Rehabilitation Act of
1973. Uie University must make an effort to
reasonably accommodate disabled students.
This means giving special services to these
students unless it causes "undue financial
hardship to Uie University".
There are several classes that require students to spend a certain amount oftimein a
wheelchair. Frank took the Thenqieutic Recreation class and had to spend six hour in a
wheelchair.
Frank thinks the University should do
more to make the campus accessible to the
handicapped. It was winter when Frank did
his project and he said, "It was really hard to
get around in the snow, and I could barely
get to class."
Kristin, a studrat who took the class
Physically Disabled, was required to spend

48 houn in a wheelchair. "There were a lot
oftimesI had to cheat", she says. "I realize
people who are really handicapped can't just
get out of Uieir chair and walk up a hill. It
reaUy made me Uiink."
Kristin thinks people who aren't disabled
don'trespectUiose who are. She remembers
a time she was trying to get into McEntire
HaU and someone had paiked in front of Uie
wheelchair ramp.
"I couldn't believe someone could be so
insensitive", she said. Kristin Uiinks she
has developed a whole new attitude toward
the disabled and she "respects Uiem very
much."
Kristin went on, "I Uiink everyone should
have to spend a week in a wheelchair. That
way, maybe people would realize how much
effort it takes just to do everyday Uiings we
take for granted".
She said the handicapped awareness day
was a great idea, and she hopes Uie public
will become more sympathetic by being
more informed.
AlUiough Uiere are several disabled students recognized on campus, there are many
who don't seek help. Housley feels this is
because Uie students want to succeed on
their own. "Some disabled students get by
in high school and Uiink Uiey can make it
in college, but Uien Uiey get here and realize
they need help", says Housley.
Since Uie disabled who seek help on campus are monitored carefully and always encouraged, their graduationrateis "very comparable and sometimes even higher Uian that
of other students", according to Housley.
There are several programs on campus to
help students, such as the writing center and
the maUi center. There are also workshqis
on time management and study habits.
These programs are very informative,
says Housley. and the public is welcome.
These services can be very helpful, and may
sometimes mean the difference between success and failure.

LHU boxers display perfect night at "Home Show"
By Patrick J. Hill
Eagle Eye Reporter
The boxing team continued its dominance
in last Saturday's 12th annual Invitational
Intercollegiate Boxing Championships at
the Thomas Field House.
The Bald Eagles gave the home crowd a
good show as all of the LHU boxers won
their bouts.
LHU's Dan Demillio was impressive
with a strong perfonnance against Navy's
John Garry at the 147-pound level.
The referee stopped the contest in the third
round as Demillio eamed the win.
LHU veteran Dewayne Bryant handled
Gettysburg's Frank Zinea at 180-pounds.
Bryant scored a convincing 5-0 decision
over Zinea.
The Bald Eagle's heavyweight Mike
Lyons hardly broke a sweat as he pounded
Xavier's Dave Deahring.
It was the quickest bout of the evening
as the fight was stopped 30 seconds into the
first round.
Team captain Dave Machamer clearly
dominated his bout at a 132-pounds, as he
scored a 5-0 decision over Craig Rogerson
of Navy.
Scott Asher was involved in a nonscoring match-up at 190-pounds, as he

squared off against the defending national
champion Matt Osborne of Penn State.
The final bout of the evening was an exhibition contest between John Pierro and
Xavier's Bill Rolsten.
As with any non-scoring exhibition
matches, both fights were considered draws.
Tom Barille of Central Connecticut was
named the outstanding boxer in the event
Barille crushed Navy's Clint Chlebowski as
the referee stopped the bout in the second
round.
Earlier that evening, there were 10 novice
and sub-novice bouts held. Dave Funk was
the only winner for the Bald Eagles at 132pounds.
Funk scored a 3-0 decision over Rob Gaeta for the win.
Rob Noll (156 pounds) and Todd McQuillen (147 pounds) fought hard but came up
on thc short ends of 2-1 decisions.
Other LHU novice boxers that came up
short of victory were Stephen Cunningham
(119 pounds) and Ed Shilling (147 pounds).
Of the eight official bouts diat were
scheduled, only three were extended to the
full three rounds.
The referees gave the boxers numerous
standing eight counts to emphasize safety
and all of the boxers were examined for injuries after their fights.

Men's basketball breaks scoring record.... again
By Rob Heller
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter
The Bald Eagles stole the show Monday
evening with tremendous pressure defense
and good outside shooting, as they destroyed
the Golden Bears of Kutztown University
144-106 in Thomas Field House improving
their overall record to 4-1.
Lock Haven'sran-and-gunoffense and
hands on defense forced Kutztown into 35
tumovers, resulting in 17 Bald Eagle steals.
"We woriced a lot on our defense this
week in practice, and it showed," said coach
Dave Blank.
Once Kutztown tumed the ball over Lock
Haven knew what to do with it. The Bald
Eagles shot 51 percent from the floor, including an impressive 43 percent fi'om behind the 3-point arc.
The 144 point outburst by the Bald Eagles is a new school record, breaking the
five-day-old mark of 132.
Tmman Greene led all scorers with 40
points, connecting on seven 3-pointers.
Greene's perfonnance tied the school record
for points in a regulation game.
The Bald Eagles boasted five other
players in double figures, including Carl
Brown with 15.
Kutztown took an early lead when Lock

Joinings, 29 points on the evening, hit a 3pointer to make the score 10-6 with 18:13
on the clock.
With 17:45 remaining in the half Dana
Vaughns was fouled while driving to the
hoop. He connected on both free throws,
and tied the score at 10. A Rocky
D'Angelo jumper 15 seconds later put the
Bald Eagles on top 12-10.
Over the next three minutes the Bald Eagles went on an 8-2 run increasing their lead
to 20-12 with 14:17 left to go in the half.
The Golden Bears fought back to within
three at the 12:58 mark on a short jumper
by Andy Eaton, to make the score 23-20.
The Bald Eagles then got hot. With
10:18 to go, silky smooth Tim Smith buried an NBA range 3-pointer to make the
score 31-22. A minute later freshman
Burke Massey stole the ball from Eaton,
and passed it to Tommy Johnson who went
coast to coast for the deuce, 35-25.
They were not done yet With 8:18 remaining in the half Johnson pulled down a
rebound and took off up court.
When he reached half court he spotted
Vaughns breaking to the basket. Johnson
lobbed the ball high in the air toward the
rim. Vaughns propelled himself into the
air, caught the ball with two hands and
slammed it through with authority.

The alley-oop capped a 17-6 spurt for the
Bald Eagles increasing their lead to 40-26.
LHU was flying high. With 7:23 to go
in the half Don Ross finalized the break
with a two-handed thunder dunk to make the
score 44-29.
The crowd was going bananas over the
dunking exhibition being put on by the
BaldEagles.
LHU then went back to it's patented outside game on a "trey" by Greene with 6:44
remaining in the first half to increase the
lead to 49-32.
The Bald Eagles led at the half by a score
of 67-50 over the Golden Bears.
The second-half began pretty much the
same way the first one ended. The Bald Eagle's pressure defense ccxitinued to be effective.
The first points of the half came when
Vaughns stole the ball and dished it off to
Greene who canned a 3-point basket
After a Kutztown tumover Dave Wood
nailed a trey from the top of the key. On
their next offensive sequence Greene connected on another 3-pointer.
With 18:30 on the clock two Brown free
throws capped an unbelievable 13-0 run to
make the score 80-50. It was all Lock
Haven at this point
With 6:50 to go Greene stole die ball

from Matt Coklren and passed it to Brown
streaking down the right side. Brown
caught the ball, leaped high in the air and
with two hands jammed in over 6-10 Mike
Anderson. And the foul! Brown convened
the three point play to make the score 12087.
The only two things left to question at
this point were if there would be any more
dunks, and if the Bald Eagles would break
their single game scoring mark of 132.
Both questions were soon answered.
With 4:21 remaining Wood passed the ball
to Greene in the open court Greene finished the break with a slam to make the
score 133-99 as LHU went on to continue
their record setting performance.

Women hoopsters upset by Phila. Textile

Eagle Eye Sports Reporter

mark of the contest With LHU up 43-37,
Textile literally shut down the Lady Eagle
offense for the night LHU could only
manage to score seven more points the rest
of the way and just froze at the free throw
line, missing the front end of three one-andone opportunities.
Barger led LHU with 16 points followed
by Wolfe with 12 and Heller with 10. Lisa
Sporer hauled down seven rebounds.
"We were well prepared for this game just
like any other," said Scarfo. "We played
awful from the seniors right down to the
freshmen."
The loss was the fust one this season for
the Lady Eagles (4-1). The team must
shake off their lackluster performance
against Textile and prepare for a visitfiroma
tough West Chester University team, tomorrow aftemoon at 2 p.m.

He who lives by the line, dies by the line.
The free throw line that is.
Wednesday night the Lady Eagle basketball team definitely died at the line en route
to a 52-50 loss to Philadelphia Textile.
LHU shot a paltry 7 of 16 from the charity stripe and committed 21 tumovers in the
game.
"We absolutely stunk up the gym," said
coach Frank Scarfo. "It was a total team
loss, everyone contributed."
After a poor first half which saw Textile
take a 24-20 half-time lead, co-captains
Amy Barger and Donna Heller led the Lady
Eaglestoa second half 8-2 opening run, and
LHU was quickly in the lead 28-26.
Textile fought back and tied the contest at
32 until Angie Wolfe began another Lady
Eagle run which put LHU up 38-33.

Ross's brilliant
career comes to
an end
By Maryellen Jaskuta
Eagle Eye Sports Editor
All good things must come to an
end and for Lock Haven soccer fans,
Gary Ross's career was one which
will be remembered.
"I enjoyed my career, it was a great
four years." said Ross, who is from
Qeethorpe. England. "I feel a lot better about myself as a soccer player. I
feel more confident"
Rossi, as he isreferredtoby many,
is known for his fierce competitive
style of play and because of this, has
piled up numerous accolades in his
years wearing a Bald Eagle uniform.
"I went out on the fiekl and was
proud to be part of the Lock Haven
team." explained Ross, afimessmanagement major. "I just wanted it
more than my opponent"
"Everytime I put the LHU uniform
on I think I became more aggressive
to win."
And his accolades show just that as
he tore up the Pennsylvania State
Athletic Conference (PSAC) since he
was a fieshman.
He was selected to die All-PSAC
Team since his first year campaign
and was named MVP of die conference
his sophomore and senior years.
Other accolades include AllRegional Team and Division II AllAmerican Second Team as a junior.
During Rossi's career. LHU has
captured the PSAC Westem Division
four times and die PSAC Championship Uiree times including the 1990 title to fmish off his career.
But in his senior year Ross wanted
to concentrate on something more
than his accomplishments piling up.
"Sometimes I get to much credit for
scoring," said one of the team's cocaptains this year. "My teammates
set me up and I just put it in the net"
"I wanted to show that I am a team
player. I had a special goal this year
and that was to get 10 assists this
year."
Rossi accomplished his goal by
distributing ten assists and collecting
11 goals this year.
Ross, who became LHU's all-time
leading scorer as a junior, finished his
career with an incredible 53 goals and
26 assists.

(Ross continued from page 11)
The England native may be finished
with his collegiate career but don't
think for one minute he's finished booting a soccer ball around.
After his graduation in May 1991. he
is hoping to get picked up by one of the
professional teams in the U.S.
Either the MISL. the American Soccer League or the Indoor Soccer League,
which former LHU All-American goalie
Warren Westcoat plays in.
But first things first: Rossi is a candidate for the prestigious Senior Bowl.
The Senior Bowl has an all-star game
atmosphere. Twenty-two of the nations
best (two at each position) get chosen
for it The players which are selected
are usually from Division I schools.
The event is tentatively scheduled to
be held in Flwida with many professional scouts on hand.
"It would be a great honor for me to
get invited to play in the Senior Bowl."
said Ross.
Rossi is hoping to continue his soccer career so he continues to dazzle soccer fans around die country like he did
here at the Haven.
