First SCC meeting leaves students wanting answers
September 24,1999

Lisa Barron
With the possibility of a strike pending negotiation weighing on the minds
ofstudents and rumors spreading in epidemic proportion, Dr. Burnham attempted to answer questions on the matter at Wednesday night's Student Cooperative Council (SCC) meeting.
Early this summer the Chancellor
sent out a letter to students and faculty
"assuring the students that a strike
would not take place."
As students know, there is a real
possibility the strike will occur, but
many students are uncertain what the
outcome will be. They are also unsure
what specifically the State System and
the faculty are demanding.
The faculty is rejecting the recent
proposal of the State System which proposed a pay scale decrease from 5% to
2.5% Faculty members currently receive an increase in eight step increments. This proposal would mean a decrease in payment of $41,000 dollars in
a ten year period.
In a three year contract the cost of
living scale that is supposed to increase
to 3% would decrease to as low as 2%.
Also this offer would gradually reduce
the number of part-time faculty members.
Intellect property rights are also a
main point ofcontention among faculty. The State System proposed that
while professors are on sabbatical or doing professional research if any research
is published or a book is published they
have the rights to 100% of the royalties
earned by the work. They would also be
granted money for any other additional

Currently faculty members are negotiating based on an agreement called
the last best offer binding arbitration.
This means that faculty members agree
to negotiations until December 31st,

both sides putting their best offer on the
table until this date and then if agreements don't ensue, a strike will take
place. Both sides send their best offer
to an arbitrator and the arbitrator takes
in to consideration both offers and picks
the most reasonable offer. According
to Dr. Burnham matters
usually get solved before
the arbitrator has to decide. iimiiii^hi^^ii.
Though Burnham is not
sure exactly what will take
place, because the faculty
has never come this close to
a strike, certain subjects
were clarified. The rumor
that students will be given

at the time the strike occurs
is false.

Angry students wanting to know

what the plan will be if the strike happens, questioned Burnham on credits
and internships and graduating in December; the stability of their academic
careers were frustrated when their questions couldn't be answered. Some were
frustrated that only some of their questions could be answered satisfactorily

Student recognized for academic achievements
Lock Haven, Pa.-Vice President Al Gore recently recognized
eight local students for their academic achievements as part of
the Lock Haven University of
Pennsylvania Eager Eagles Pro-

gram.

The students were presented
with certificates signed by Vice
President Gore at the annual
closing ceremony for the University's Educational Opportunity
Program.
Lock Haven Mayor Harold
C. Yost Jr. also recognized the
students. The following students
were recognized: Michele Anderson of Renovo, Joseph Brickley of Howard, Robert Hamilton
of Loganton, Renee Hevner of
Renovo, Barbara O'Brien of
Renovo. James Simpson of Lock
Haven, Wendy Stull of Beech

Creek, and Matthew S. Winslow
of Lock Haven.
The Eager Eagles program
was initiated to help local high
school students attend college.
These are students who might
not otherwise be able to attend
college for financial or other reasons.

Students in the program live

on the University campus for

three weeks during the summer
and take college courses. They
complete a total of 13 credits
over a three-year period.
Upon successful completion
of the program, all students are
guaranteed admission to the University.

about alcohol violations last fall.
"But we were so concerned bout
alcohol as a serious health and
safety risk that we felt it was incumbent upon us to do something to turn it around."
For years, schools have had a

hard time determining when to
call home about a student's behavior. The Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act, also
known as the Buckley Amendment, has long contained a loophole allowing colleges to release
educational and disciplinary
records to the parents of financially dependent students. But
many schools found the amendment confusing and opted to inform parents only when students
were at risk of death or serious
injury.
Congress cleared up a lot of
that confusion last fall after approving an amendment to the
Higher Education Act that now
allows schools to inform parents
anytime a student under 21 violates campus policies. As a result, several schools — including
Central Michigan University,

Virginia Tech and the universities of Delaware and Virginia

—

have hopped on the parental-notification bandwagon, some even
requiring that students, not
school administrators, do the dialing.

Some of the toughest notification policies are at the University of Delaware, which started
calling students' parents in 1997
— the same year it implemented
a "zero tolerance" rule that leads
to expulsion or suspension for
students who have had three alcohol offenses. University officials say they're very pleased
with the results. The number of
repeat offenses among UD students has plummeted. More than

"It's working incredibly

well," Timothy F. Brooks, the
university's dean of students told
The Chronicle of Higher Educa-

tion. "I'm absolutely convinced
that parents have helped us reduce future problems. Parents
talk to their sons and daughters
about inappropriate behavior,
and they're saying, 'You need to
change.'"
Central Michigan University
had little trouble deciding what
to do about notification policies
this fall after distributing surveys
to 179 parents ofCSU students.
Of those polled, a whopping 176
said they wanted to be informed
when their children violated the
university's policies on alcohol
and drugs. Surprising to some
was that about half of 218 students surveyed said their parents
should be notified.
Many students agree that parents should be informed

"If the parents are paying for
it. the school should be required
to tell them." said FSU senior
Walter Shealy. "But if the kids
are paying for it, there's no reason that parents should be involved."
Many college officials agree,

and are limiting their notification
policies to students who are fi-

nancially dependent.
Despite having congessional
authorization to blow the whistle

on students, several campuses
are having a hard time establish-

ing consistent notification policies. They are concerned that not
informing parents could open
them up to litigation should a
student die or receive serious injury as a result of violating a
school policy. They're also concerned that some parents may
overreact to policy violations

Vice President Al Gore addresses the issue of cyber-stalkin
SAN DIEGO, Calif. (TMS) — Cyber-stalking was the topic at hand when
Vice President Al Gore visited San
Diego State University last week.
During his Sept. 16 visit, Gore discussed the new threat to computer users
with a group of select students, faculty
and community members. While on
campus, he released a new report on cyber-stalking from the Department of
Justice that calls for Congress to approve federal laws against it and for
states to re-examine their own laws.
"Cyber-stalking is one of these
words that sounds unfamiliar to a lot of
people," Gore said, "but it's becoming
more familiar as more people are victims of this crime."
Cyber-stalking refers to the use of
the Internet, e-mail or other electronic
communication devices to stalk another
person through threatening behavior.
Gore pointed to one case in Los An-

geles in which 50-year-old security
guard Gary Dellapenta pleaded guilty to
cyber-stalking a woman he had met at a
church. L.A. Deputy District Attorney
Scott Gordon said Dellapenta placed
online ads for sex using his victim's
name, address and phone number.
Gordon, who prosecuted the case,
said Dellapenta impersonated the victim
online, engaging in graphic sexual conversations and rape fantasies with men.
Dellapenta also gave details about how
to disable the victim's home security
system.

High-profile cases like this have
garnered the attention of the media and
lawmakers.
The vice president acknowledged in
his speech that stalking in general took
a long time to be recognized as a crime,
but Americans soon realized how dangerous it was.
"Today all 50 states have (laws)
against stalking," he said, "and if a

stalker used the telephone, there are
laws against that.
"Now, enter the information superhighway, the Internet, e-mail, and all of
a sudden, women, usually women, are
getting these e-mails and other kinds of
contact through the Internet which
leaves them fearful, scared that it is going to iesult in physical harm. It can
completely change the lives of the victims."
New technology is certainly opening
up more opportunities for stalking to
take place, said SDSU professor and
communications expert Brian Spitzberg.
He said 10 percent of all stalking cases
in San Diego involve e-mail, as do 20
percent of the cases in Los Angeles.
According to Spitzberg, the Internet
offers much greater anonymity than
physical stalking, and with an estimated
40 million people using it, the pool of
possible victims is much larger.
"(Passing new cyber-stalking laws)

Spitzberg said. "But it disturbs me that training on cyber-stalking and appro|

go unclaimed every year also offer to find those hidden scholarships for interested students,
usually for a fee. But according
to the Federal Trade Commission, requiring fees may amount
to fraud. They warn that applying for a scholarship should never require paying a fee in advance.
One of the reasons many
scholarships and endowments go
unclaimed is student apathy.
Journalism, department head
Steven Pasternack said that although his department advertises its scholarships and does a
good job of trying to alert students, many searches generate
few applicants.
"It's really incredible lethargy," Pasternack said.
To illustrate, Pasternack described a recent $2,000 scholarship sponsored by ABC broadcaster Sam Donaldson that received only three applicants.
"Luckily, one ofthe three applicants was qualified," he said.
When applying for a private
scholarship, first start your
search in your area, checking local businesses or organizations
that may offer scholarships. Plan
on spending some time on the
application. Many applicants re-

port spending 5-10 hours per
scholarship.
And while there is no official
national database keeping track
of private scholarships, there are
several books and Web sites that
attempt to compile the thousands
of scholarships offered every
year by the private sector.
One example is Daniel J.
Cassidy's The Scholarship Book,
which lists 50,000 private sector
scholarships, grants and loans.
Cassidy's book is recommended
by several non-profit scholarship-assistance-programs because it provides one of the most
comprehensive listings of private money for students. In the
book, Cassidy gives tips about
applying for scholarships and
warns students against falling
victim to scams.

Futurist predicts more old maids
in the 21st century

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash)» The future may
be uncertain but there's one thing for sure there
will be more old maids than ever before.
That's according to futurist Marian Salzman,
co-author of the new book, "Next: Trends for the
Near-Future" (Overlook Press).
Salzman says there are almost 43 million single women in America and she predicts the numbers will continue to rise in the next millennium.
Many oftoday's old maids think it's sexy to be
middle-aged and single thanks to role models like
the vampy characters on HBO's "Sex in the City"
and the forty-something celebs like Melanie Griffith.
Salzman predicts many older bachelorettes will
start behaving like old bachelors have for years
by hooking up with much younger lovers a la Mrs.
Robinson in "The Graduate."
Even though it's becoming more acceptable to
be an old maid, Salzman says there's still a big
stigma against middle-aged single guys who still
live with their mothers.

Men and women worlds apart in

EMMAUS, PA (Wireless Flash) Even if men
aren't from Mars and women aren't from Venus,
they are still worlds apart in the bedroom.
According to a new sex survey conducted by
"Men's Health" magazine, the No. 1 turn-on for
women is being kissed and bitten on the neck. The
top tum-on for guys is oral sex.
Other top turn-ons for women include manual
stimulation, foot massages and men who can cook.
Meanwhile, male turn-ons include being ordered around, bedroom acrobatics and women who

are actually grateful after sex.

Bette Midler to perform at Bryce Jordan Center

--

UNIVERSITY PARK, PA Actress/ singer/ comedian Bette Midler
will appear Tuesday, October 11 at 7:30 p.m. in a special engagement
at the Bryce Jordan Center.
Ticket prices are $79, $64 and $49 for reserved seats and went on
sale September 13 at the Bryce Jordan Center, Eisenhower Auditorium, selected Uni-Mart ticket outlets. Commonwealth Campus ticket
outlets, or charge by phone at (800) 863-3336 or locally at (814) 865-5555.
Bette Midler counts singing as only one of her
talents. Since 1972, when she first came to national
recognition, she has managed to score a number of
major hits in a career as a recording artist.
Born in Patterson, NJ, and raised in Hawaii, Midler showed aninterest early on in singing and acting, and by the '60s she had moved to New York and
gotten a role in the long-running Broadway hit "Fid-

records always reached the Top 100 in the album chart. But in 1979
she starred in the film "The Rose", a fictional account of the life of
Janis Joplin, and the title track became a Top Ten hit. 1980 saw the
release ofMidler's concert film, "Divine Madness", and her best selling book, A View from a Broad. Her next film, Jinxed (1982) was a
flop, and subsequent records did not fare well.
Midler made a cinematic comeback with "Down
and Out in Beverly Hills" (1986), but it wasn't until
1989 that she had another pop hit, when her version
of"Wind Beneath My Wings" from her fdm "Beaches" became a Top Ten, million-selling album. The

ft

dler on the Roof."
Midler developed a nightclub act that included
comedy and singing a variety of kinds of material,
including show tunes, pop hits, and even a takeoff
on the Andrew Sisters, and appeared with increasing
frequency in New York with her accompanist, Barry
Manilow.
She was signed to Atlantic Records and released The Divine Miss
M (1972), which went gold and included a Top Ten single cover of
The Andrew Sisters' "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy." Bette Midler
(1973) was also similarly successful.
Midler album sales fell off during the rest ofthe '70s though her

song, "From a Distance" followed it and hit number

two.

Midler's soundtrack album to her 1991 film "For
the Boys" was also a gold selling hit. In 1992, millions ofpeople watched Bette sing a wistfully comic
love song to Johnny Carson on his next-to-last show,
which many think was the best tribute for the late
night talk show legend.
The album "Bette of Roses" followed in 1995.
Then in 1997, she won an Emmy for her HBO special
"Bette Midler: Diva Las Vegas."
Midler's newest album called "Bathhouse Betty" is a return to the
campy, cross-cultural and enormously influential New York music
scene ofthe early '70's. It was there that the performer began her meteoric, multi-faceted career with a groundbreaking run at the city's
Continental Baths. And it is that creative touchstone that sparks the
exuberance of Bette Midler.

strong and deep friendship. Brian Cox, who is never less than
superb, is also wasted as the former owner ofthe Detroit Tigers.
And the slow-motion shots are
cliche and badly manipulated.
Take away all the technical

well-done love story that leaves
you feeling good. Even though
the ending is a traditional Hollywood ending (happy), it makes
sense in this film.

Costner and Preston try to hit a homerun
When the executives at Universal heard the words, "Kevin
Costner" and "baseball movie,"
they were no doubt hoping for
the same kind of box office gold
that Costner's other sports-related projects ("Bull Durham" and
"Tin Cup") delivered. A hit ofthe
same magnitude could be just the
thing the struggling studio could
use.
While some ofCostner's latest works ("The Postman") have
proven overblown and self-indulgent, his latest film, 'For
Love ofthe Game," may not only boost Universal's bank account but Costner's career as
well.
Based on the novel by
Michael Shaara, "For Love of
the Game" follows pitcher Billy
Chapel (Costner) through the last
game of his career, a potential
no-hitter. As he plays the game
he reflects on his life, particularly his rocky relationship with
Jane (Kelly Preston), who has
just ended their five-year romance to take a job in London.
"For Love of the Game"
turns out, however, to be more
about the love ofa woman than
it is about the love of sports,
even though it tries to show both.
Costner gives a good performance, even though it is one we
have seen before. Kelly Preston's
turn as a "good girl" is a little
hard to swallow after the string
of unrelenting skanks she's
played ("Addicted to Love" and
"Jerry Maguire"). However, the
chemistry created for the two
characters by the script allows
you to forget that after the first
half-hour.
In fact, truth be told, the

Pennsylvania farmers trying to
recover from this year's devastating drought.
"Instead of of the piecemeal
approaches that have been offered up until now." Hanna said,
"this package represents a comprehensive approach that includes both immediate and long
term relief that goes above and
beyond the help already available to fanners.
"This type of far reaching effort will be essential to the survival of many members of Pennsylvania's farm community and
their ability to recover at least a
portion of the losses they suffered this year."

your feet do get wet. Another
thing to remember is your personal comfort relating to heat.
Wicking will keep your feet dry.
From its polyester foundation, if
you get a sock that is too thick it
will still make your feet too hot.
POLES - Yes, poles will totally add to your hiking exercise.
Take two poles and your aerobic
demands will double.
There also is the matter of support on rough trails, poles will

help, but don't consider them to
be a crutch.
PACKS - Overnight packs are
detailed enough to write for days
on. So, I'll stick to packs for
hikes on day-trip hiking, otherwise known as "day-packs."
Basically, you have two options here. A typical academic

Pack in water no matter how
short the trip will be, take a
compass, map, snack, poncho
and a small medical kit.
If you're a shutterbug, don't
forget some extra film and the
camera. If I could pass along
one recommendation it would
be to pack some Tylenol.
Nothing makes you want to be
home and in the shower more
than having a splitting
headache.
Also, when you are hiking and have some trash to
throw away, put it in your pack
to pollute somewhere where they
want trash.
WATER - The most basic of
needs is the most important thing
you take with you hiking or any
other outdoor activity. You're
going to sweat and lose water.
It's also a good idea to take some
for another person. Water is a
must for your pack. Don't rely
on streams that dry up and usually aren't that safe to drink from.
Happy hiking and stay safe.

Spoils
Oscar "The Golden Ploy Cox promotes peace through sports
In the past several years,
boxing has suffered a number of
travesties that may have forever
damaged the sport in the eyes of
its fans. Last Saturday was certainly NOT one of those occassions.
The two Holyfield/Tyson
fights were complete disasters
and lets not bring up that debacle
between Holyfield and Lennox
Lewis.
I've been walking around all
week listening to De La Hoya
fans boo-hooing about the decision and about what's wrong
with boxing. That decision was
one ofthe only things boxing has
had to be proud of in recent
memory.

The fight is scheduled to air
again tomorrow night on HBO,
and I urge you to watch it. If you
saw it and you think I'm wrong,
you obviously need to watch it
after you take some

notes from this piece.
Sure you sit and you listen to

so called boxing fans stop thinking and buy into the "Golden
Ploy".
Now don't get me wrong,
Oscar is undoubtedly one of the
best boxers in the world today
but how many of you boxing
fans, and I use that term loosely,
knew who Felix Trinidad was
before this fight was broadcast.
Let me give you a little background. Trinidad is 26 years-old
and he's been boxing professionally for nine years. You do the
math. He now stands atop the
welterweight division with an
overall record of 35-0 with 30
knockouts which came courtesy
of the deadliestright hand in that
weight class.

It has been said that on any
given day any team can win. Let

it be said here that this past Saturday was not such a day for
Susquehanna University. Lock
Haven's rugby team began their
league play in exemplary fashion
by absolutely destroying S.U.
116-0. That's not a misprint - one
hundred and sixteen to nothing.
Of the fifteen players that started the game for LHU, only five
of them did not score.
One could not have asked for
a more beautiful day on which to
play rugby. With the bright blue
sky as the backdrop to a
sparkling sun shining onto a
field oflush grass, it doesn't get
much better. And as LHU started
the game with what would be
their only kickoff of the day,
Susquehanna began a long road
of embarrassment.
The first score of the day
came ten minutes after the opening whistle from Aaron "Hurt"
Lankford on a five meter run.
Rookie Matt Palillo converted
his first ofthirteen tries to raise
the score to 7-0 and Lock Haven
never looked back. Soon thereafter, Mike Archbold scored his
first try of the day on a twentymeter sideline run. Tom "Bad
Moon" Baughman joined the
highlight reel with a ten meter
score off of a beautiful switch
from teammate Scott McGuire.

LHU wouldn't go without. -a
fight, coming back at the
Huskies with a six play, 60 yard
drive led by two big rushes of 26
and 13 yards by A.J. Anderson.
The drive resulted in a 8 yard
touchdown pass to Jason Kuntz
from Galiczynski and after the
successful extra point by Mapes,
LHU was back in it 20-10.
Bloomsburg came back and
threatened the Bald Eagle's end
zone again, working their way
down the LHU 17 yard line.
LHU's Angelo Moultair came up
with a big play, intercepting
Miller's pass in the endzone and
downing it for the touchback.
With just a minute left in the
half, the Bald Eagle offense
made a final drive down the field
in attempt to cut the Huskie lead
to three. Lock Haven ran out of
time after reaching the Bloomsburg 22 and they ended the half
behind 20-10.
At the top of the third quarter, Bloomsburg once again
made a run for Lock Haven's end
zone and fell short when Eichert
fumbled the ball on the LHU 5.
The Eagles' turned over on
downs, but returned the favor
when Galiczynski fumbled on
the second play of the drive.
The LHU defense were able
to prevent the Huskies from another touchdown but Boop's 24
yard field goal was good and
Bloom was up 23-10.

The Bald Eagles hosted the
Huskies of Bloomsburg on
September 18 in hopes ofending
the season opening losing streak
that was beginning to mirror that
of last season's.
The Eagles were unable to
stop Bloom's devestating ground
game, though, and were routed
44-24 by the Huskies, who ironically handed them their third
straight loss last year as well.
Bloom's Arrastene Henry
and Steve Eichert combined for
37 carries and 270 yards to help
the Huskie offense into scoring
position numerous times on the
day.
Both teams got off to a slow
start, exchanging possession of
the ball four times before LHU
jumped out to a 3-0 lead at the
end of the first quarter off of a
Matt Mapes 42 yard field goal.
A Bloom drive that began
with five minutes left in the first,
ended on the first play ofthe second quarter with a five yard
touchdown pass to Mike Lelko
from Eric Miller. LHU blocked
Tom Boop's extra point attempt,
making it a 6-3 Huskie lead.
A fumble by Jamie Allen two
possessions converted into another six points for Bloom after
