Winter Makes
Grand Entrance
by SUSAN SHELLY
The winter's first major
storm hit central Pennsylvania yesterday, leaving
Lock Haven with about
seven inches of snow,
according to an Eagle Eye
source.
The storm affected Lock
Haven State in various
ways. Some classes were
cancelled because professors couldn't get to them,
and class attendance was
generally lower than usual,
according to several professors questioned.
College police reported
that there were no traffic
problems and they praised
students for their cautiousness. One officer, however,
said that there was a slight
mishap in front of Ulmer,
when a pedestrian slipped
on the ice and fell,
sustaining minor injuries.
The victim refused treatment.
Cafeteria staff expressed
concern over students
taking trays from the dining
hall to use for sliding down
hills. It is cafeteria policy
that if a student in caught
stealing anjrthing from the
dining hall, including trays,
that the student's meal
ticket will be revoked. A
staff member claimed that
they have already noticed
missing trays, and a
member of security enforced that claim when he
found three cafeteria trays
on the hill beside the PUB.

Jackson, Miss. (CH)-- The
student body president of
Delta State University
astonished a meeting of his
fellow student body presidents from around the
state by presenting a
resolution criticizing the
grooming of one member of
the group, Sam Cox the
student
president
of
Mississippi State. After
Miller's resolution was
rejected by the surprised
statewide group, he walked
out of the meeting saying
he considered the rejection
a "slap in the face"
because his resolution had
not been taken seriously.

LH biandies out; five Liberal Arts majcxs de^dQped
by A M Y H A M B L I N
According to Dr. Hugh
Williamson, Dean of the
School of Arts and Sciences
at LHSC, the past three
years have witnessed the
development of five new
Liberal Arts majors. Two
essentially new curriculums
offer Bachelor of Science
degrees; one a Quantative
Business degree within the
existing Computer Science
major and the other being a
completely rebuilt and
redesigned Social Work
major. Three other majors
are totally new; the General
Studies major which offers
either a B.S. or a B.A. as
well as a major in International Studies and one in
Journalism and Media,
both of which offer a B.A.
degree.
The quantative Business
and Computer Science
major, by emphasizing the
business angle of math and
science, will meet the
needs of students who
wish to pursue business
and industrial job opportunities. Dr. Williamson
reports that within the past
year in which the major has
been offered, quite a large
number ofthe math-science
students have taken advantage of it.
The previously existing
Social Work major had to
be rebuilt, explanis Dr.
Williamson, to be accreditable by the Council of
Social Work Education,
which is the professional
accrediting agency. So far
the new program has
received candidacy status,
which is the next-to-the-last
stage towards full accreditation, and is going well.
The General Studies
major is for the "non-traditional" and well motivated
student who wishes to
utilize a synthesis of goals
and experiences to work
toward a particularly defined goal. Dr. Williamson
emphasized that this program is not for the student
with academic difficulty nor
for the student with
instructional needs which
LHSC can't service. Students who have discussed
their objectives with Dr.
Williamson and have had
their application approved
by the General Studies
Board must then meet with
the Board each semester to
review his or her upcoming
semester plan to see if it
correlates with the goals
expressed in his or her
initial application.
The International Studies
major was approved last
summer and is viewed by
those who created it as "a
vehicle to students who are
interested in going to Law
or Graduate School, or who
wish to work in a domain
with international clientel,
as well as people who relate
to corporations who do
business internationally."
It offers some technical
expertise within at least
one of eleven emphasis' as
well as a general knowledge of international affairs through a core of one
elected and three required
classes. Foreign language
classes will be required,
and a study-abroad semester will be encouraged.
The fifth new major,
officially underway this
semester, is in Journalism
and Media Studies. It
consists of a core of
required classes and 17
hours of electives within a
list of seventeen journalism
and related classes. This
major is designed to
prepare students for a
career in one of the media
industries. Experience in
writing for campus publications as well as upper class
internships with local newspapers, broadcast stations
and commercial media will
be offered.
All of these majors,
except the Social Work
program, are in varying
degrees interdisciplinary,
and are relatively rare in
the Pennsylvania State
College network. This
greater diversification of
college services reflects the
philosophy which was
prompted by Secretary of
Education Zeigler before he
retired a year ago. He had
required colleges to redirect into different areas.
A sixth new program,
offering a B.S. in Management and Science, is in the
planning stage at present.
It is aimed at the student
who is interested in
employment in a small
business, civil service job,
or in the larger industrial
•model, on the management
level.
According to Dean Williamson, "Generally speaking all of these programs
have been built around
existing courses and faculty." Conceming how they
will affect the existing
departments, he stated "I
think they will have a
positive effect. All these
students will be enrolled in
the General Education
requirements to begin with.
They will impact favorable
on all of the departments of
the school." He forsees no
financial repurcussions
"except if the state moves
in the direction of program
funding." Dr. Williamson
feels "Education c a n ' t
remain a static affair and
survive. This is where the
colleges will survive -through diversification."
Choir presents
"Winter Celebrations"
The College Choir will
present a Winter Choral
Concert in the Sloan
Theatre at 8 p . m . on
Friday, Dec. 9th.
The featured selection on
the program will be
"Winter Celebrations" by
Frackenpohl, an ecumenical musical version of the
Christmas season which
includes several wellknown hymn tunes and
carol melodies, accompanied by a variety of
instruments including percussion, marimba, guitar,
string bass, piano, and
harpsichord.
TTie work is tied together
by the narration. The
harpsichord to be used is
one recently completed by
John Schwarz and Russell
Nelson of the music
department.
The program will open
with selections by the
Recorder Ensemble, directed by Dr. Schwarz. Choral
selections will be presented
by a 100-voice combined
choir which includes students
from
the
Choral Seminar.
Also on the program will
be solo presentations by
College Choir members
who have been studying in
the "Applied
Voice"
course.
The choir is under the
direction of Gary Renzelman.
ART EXHIBIT - Barbara Eiswerth of Camp Hill, left, and Jennifer Motter of
Jersey Shore, right, two graduating seniors in art, will present an exhibit of their
work in the Sloan Gallery on Dec. 6-10. On display will be representative
examples of the art work they have produced as students at the college,
including paintings, pottery, sculpture, jewelry, and crafts. A reception for the
two students artists will be held in the gallery at 8 pm. on Thursday, Dec. 8, all
friends and acquaintances invited to attend.

Grad Program = Bull Shit
Being affiliated with the SCC for the past year I have
become involved in numerous discussion concerning the
necessity of a Graduate Studies Program. Dr. Hamblin.
president of this esteemed college, is pushing hard for a
graduate program.
Sure, this would be a fine feather in the cap of top notch
personnel at this school. But what about the people that
really count, the students? We will all be told about how
great the college will become, how it will draw many more
students to this campus etc. Bull shit!
If administration wants to do something, how about
upgrading the shoddy undergraduate programs. In particular the English department. I am an English major who has
had it up to here taking survey courses. I will be a senior in
the spring and if I want to take an English course it has to be
one of the same ones offered semester after semester.
None of these courses go in depth. Hell, they don't
have time. It's rush, rush, rush, to read seven thousand
stories written by five hundred different authors. When its
all done you know nothing except you paid fifty dollars for
the paper backs you needed to finish the course.
The college has finally offered a Journalism major and
has one professor on campus to teach it. That's nice of them.
So many undergraduate programs are hurting. They are all
so repetitious.
I could name every English course to be offered in the
fall. That's pathetic. It's time the English, Journalism, and
liberal arts professors get together and fight for change. I
can't believe a professor enjoys teaching all survey courses.
Make the curriculum more challenging.
People always say if you have a complaint go through
the proper channels. If you do, though, it takes years to get
anything done. So, I am asking professors in general and
English professors in particular to change some courses and
add new ones. There are twenty sections for Dimensions of
Literature. Whynot cut a few, allowing professors to go into
great authors like Homer and literary works like the
Odyssey or Dante's Inferno?
So much can be done and it isn't and English students
literally are wasting their time. It's sad and unfortunate
but true. So to hell with graduate school, I just want tograduate: schooled in my major.

Pledges See Better Days Ahead
by DEBBI LUHR
Pledging a fraternity or
• sorority was once a very
hazardous thing to do. Back
in the fifties and sixties
people would sometimes
get killed on pledge
projects. Right now, pledging at LHS is changing
greatly. Years ago pledging
for the most part was
harder than it is today.
Although pledging has
changed, pledges still have
many basic requirements
they must meet, mentally
and sometimes physically.
Deborah Gerst, a sister
of Alpha Sigma Tau (AET)
for three y e a r s , says
pledging has gotten easier.
Now, she said there is no
physical abuse. The mental
strain is the same as when
Deb pledged because the
pledges "all have to know
the same amount of stuff."
She is glad there is no
physical abuse. The mental
aspects of pledging should
stay the same because that
is what makes pledging.
Kim Wittich pledged
AET this semester. She
said parts of it were hard
and parts of it were fun.
Kim believed the program
was more mental. A large
part of the mental was
"always wondering and
worrying what the sisters
think of you." She said "I
did enough (work) to make
me see what I was doing."
Kim also said, "At the
beginning, I couldn't see
the purpose of a lot of the'
things we were doing. But
now as I sit down and think
about it, I can see there was
a reason why we were told
to do it."
Rita Skavinsky, a sister
of Sigma Sigma Sigma
(EEE) for one and one half
years said pledging "hasn't
gotten easier" since she
pledged. She said that it
has changed though. Rita
said she is glad to see the
change in the program.
Karen Rathman pledged
EEE this semester. She
said it "takes a lot of
time." Karen thinks the
pledge program should stay
the same. She continued,
"It wouldn't be worth it if it
were easier." She said that
during pledging she really
learned a lot about herself.
Sue Eschbach, a sister of
Sigma Kappa (EK) for two
and one half years said,
"Though the goals are the
same for pledges, the
means of achieving them
are different." Sue said,
"The emphasis has become
more mental." She thinks
that some changes are
better and some are worse.
Sue said because of the
changes in the pledge
program, some "ideals and
responsibilities are being
less ingrained in the
individual." she also stated, "I see things changing
back somewhat - it is a
good change to see."
Terri (Tigger) Beegle
pledged EK this semester.
She said it was a lot of
work. Tigger wants pledges
to work "just as hard as I
h a v e . " She also said,
"There was a lot of mental
strain with just one pledge.
A lot of people don't know
it's as hard as it is." She
learned a lot about herself
through pledging. Tigger
said pledging was a lot of
fun, but a lot of work.
Pledging is something you
have to find out for
yourself," she said. "If I
can do this, I can do
anything."
Traci Waryck, a sister of
Zeta Tau Alpha (ZTA) for
two and one half years said
the pledge program has
gotten easier. She said
she's "sorry in away." She
feels the pledges now are
"lacking something that I
have." The pledge program is now "centered
around mental" she said.
Traci also said it's "hard to
make adjustments for two
p l e d g e s . " The program
must be revised somewhat.
Mary Kay Tettis pledged
ZTA this semester. She
said pledging is not easy.
She stated it was hard work
but for a good purpose.
Mary Kay doesn't want the
program to be easier
because, "If I have to do it,
I want them
(future
pledges) to do it too." She
learned what a sorority is
and she "got to know
people besides surface
relationship."
Russ Freeze, a brother of
Acacia for two and one half
years says the pledge
program is different and a
little harder than when he
pledged. He said he is glad
it's harder and for the time
being, hard enough. Russ
said there was " m o r e
physical harrassment when
I pledged." Next semester
he would like to see more
road trips. (That is when
they take the pledges to
meet brothers at other
Acacia houses.)
The man who pledged
Acacia this semester said
pledging was hard, but
meaningful. He said,
"There had to be a purpose
for everything and there
was." He said it was more
work than fun, but he did
have fun pledging. He also
thinks the pledges should

semester.
Len Rucci, a brother of
Kappa Delta Rho (KDR) for
two and one half years said
the pledge program hasn't
gotten easier. He said
pledging is still the same
because "tradition at KDR
will always stay the same."
He said the program is a
mental one and that this
semester's pledges will
"contribute greatly to the
brotherhood in future
years." Len said the stress
is put on the mental aspect
of pledging because "mental preparation will help
them (the pledges) for
future life."
Pete Hanlon pledged
KDR this semester. He said
it was very hard, but
worthwhile. He said the
program was a mental one.
He said, "It was more
mental with two guys. The
smaller the pledge class,
the more mental the
program." Pete said he's
"very glad pledging is over
and now the responsibility
has begun."
John Bach, a brother of
Lambda Chi Alpha (AXA)
for one and one half years
said pledging has changed
"all for the better" this
semester. This semester
they have associate brothers instead of pledges. The
associate brothers have
almost all the rights of a full
brother. When associate
brothers are brotherized,
they become full brothers.
John said the physical is
gone from their program.
He said the changes are for
the better, but "I still have
mixed feelings about, the
change."
Dan Price was the first
semester of Associate
brothers with AXA. He said
it wasn't hard, but it was an
"experience to be rememb e r e d . " He said the
program shouldn't get any
easier or tougher. Dan said
it was hard work, but fun.
He saw a "purpose in
everything" he did.
Guy Tanner pledged
Sigma Pi (EP) in 1973. He
said pledging is not as hard
as it was, but it's "better
this way. It's more relaxed
and f u n . " When he
pledged there was physical
and mental parts of
pledging. He said they still
have both, but they are
cut-back. He said the
program has "changed for

the better."
Pete Fox pledged EP this
semester'. He said pledging
was hard but, "If you want
something, you have to put
up with stuff to get it."
Pete said, "I can see the
point in why they made us
do what they
did."
Pledging was fun, good in
some parts, bad in others.
He believed he learned
more about other people.
Keith Kern, a brother of
Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE)
for three and one half years
said pledging has become a
"little easier overall" since
he pledged. He said there
is much more emphasis on
academics than before.
Keith said the pledge
program has become less
physical because "physical
doesn't develop a person."
Mentally the pledges have
done "about the same as
everyone in the p a s t "
because everyone must
know the brothers and the
fraternity.
Jon Peters pledged TKE
this semester. He said
pledging is hard and
"almost all mental." He
said he worked hard but he
had fun, too. Jon said the
physical part of pledging
doesn't have any purpose.
He said, "You leam alot
about yourself. You get so
many different opinions of
yourself, it begins to sink in
after awhile."
Ollie Smith, a brother of
Phi Mu Delta (PMD) for
three years said the format
has changed since he
pledged. There was more
physical and less mental
emphasis before. He is glad
to see the change. There is
more constructive work and
less humiliation. Ollie said,
"More respect is given to
pledges." He stated there
is more brother-pledge
relations now.
Russ Noll pledged PMD
this semester. He said it
wasn't hard and sometimes
it was fun. He beleived,
"Some things should be
easier, but not pledging in
g e n e r a l . " Russ said a
program with more emphasis on mental is better
because "You learn more
by mental."
Pledge programs have ^
changed at LHS; some
times easier, sometimes
harder, but mostly just
different. The times are
changing and the Greeks
are changing with the times
in order to maintain or
increase their popularity.
(CPS)-The office of college
president traditionally carries with it a large degree of
ecohomic security and
ample privileges. The cushiness of the job has often
prompted' criticism from
students and underpaid
faculty.
A Indiana University
they're doing more than
talking. A petition, signed
by more than
3,000
students, has been presented to the Board of Trustees
asking them to reduce the
salary of President John W.
Ryan. It recommends that
the president's pay be cut
from the present $62,500 to
$50,000 a year, according to
the Chronicle of Higher
Education.
The students complained
that he had the use of a
university-owned automobile, received an expense
allowance for entertaining
university guests, and lived
firee in an official residence.
They argued that, with
faculty and staff members
receiving raises 5.5 percent, Mr. Ryan's increase—
24 percent over the past
two years-could be lowered.
Faculty members at
Indiana have complained
that the salaries of top
administrators are going up
much faster than theirs.
The salary of the university's executive vice-president, W. George Pinnell,
has been raised by 31
percent over the last two
years, to $55,000.

Before another near capacity crowd of 2,500, the

both outclassing and outhustling a strong Montclair

Monclair entered the contest as the number one

had a 2-1 record, with only
a narrow loss being to Princeton marring its record.

275-pound Gregg Koontz,
who is rapidly becoming
one of the nations premier

of passivity. The MoyerMike Blakely match was
probably the nights biggest

Winter Makes
Grand Entrance
by SUSAN SHELLY
The winter's first major
storm hit central Pennsylvania yesterday, leaving
Lock Haven with about
seven inches of snow,
according to an Eagle Eye
source.
The storm affected Lock
Haven State in various
ways. Some classes were
cancelled because professors couldn't get to them,
and class attendance was
generally lower than usual,
according to several professors questioned.
College police reported
that there were no traffic
problems and they praised
students for their cautiousness. One officer, however,
said that there was a slight
mishap in front of Ulmer,
when a pedestrian slipped
on the ice and fell,
sustaining minor injuries.
The victim refused treatment.
Cafeteria staff expressed
concern over students
taking trays from the dining
hall to use for sliding down
hills. It is cafeteria policy
that if a student in caught
stealing anjrthing from the
dining hall, including trays,
that the student's meal
ticket will be revoked. A
staff member claimed that
they have already noticed
missing trays, and a
member of security enforced that claim when he
found three cafeteria trays
on the hill beside the PUB.

LH biandies out; five Liberal Arts majcxs de^dQped
by A M Y H A M B L I N
According to Dr. Hugh
Williamson, Dean of the
School of Arts and Sciences
at LHSC, the past three
years have witnessed the
development of five new
Liberal Arts majors. Two
essentially new curriculums
offer Bachelor of Science
degrees; one a Quantative
Business degree within the
existing Computer Science
major and the other being a
completely rebuilt and
redesigned Social Work
major. Three other majors
are totally new; the General
Studies major which offers
either a B.S. or a B.A. as
well as a major in International Studies and one in
Journalism and Media,
both of which offer a B.A.
degree.
The quantative Business
and Computer Science
major, by emphasizing the
business angle of math and
science, will meet the
needs of students who
wish to pursue business
and industrial job opportunities. Dr. Williamson
reports that within the past
year in which the major has
been offered, quite a large
number ofthe math-science
students have taken advantage of it.
The previously existing
Social Work major had to
be rebuilt, explanis Dr.
Williamson, to be accreditable by the Council of
Social Work Education,
which is the professional
accrediting agency. So far
the new program has
received candidacy status,
which is the next-to-the-last
stage towards full accreditation, and is going well.
The General Studies
major is for the "non-traditional" and well motivated
student who wishes to
utilize a synthesis of goals
and experiences to work
toward a particularly defined goal. Dr. Williamson
emphasized that this program is not for the student
with academic difficulty nor
for the student with
instructional needs which
LHSC can't service. Students who have discussed
their objectives with Dr.
Williamson and have had
their application approved
by the General Studies
Board must then meet with
the Board each semester to
review his or her upcoming
semester plan to see if it
correlates with the goals
expressed in his or her
initial application.
The International Studies
major was approved last
summer and is viewed by
those who created it as "a
vehicle to students who are
interested in going to Law
or Graduate School, or who
wish to work in a domain
with international clientel,
as well as people who relate
to corporations who do
business internationally."
It offers some technical
expertise within at least
one of eleven emphasis' as
well as a general knowledge of international affairs through a core of one
elected and three required
classes. Foreign language
classes will be required,
and a study-abroad semester will be encouraged.
The fifth new major,
officially underway this
semester, is in Journalism
and Media Studies. It
consists of a core of
required classes and 17
hours of electives within a
list of seventeen journalism
and related classes. This
major is designed to
prepare students for a
career in one of the media
industries. Experience in
writing for campus publications as well as upper class
internships with local newspapers, broadcast stations
and commercial media will
be offered.
All of these majors,
except the Social Work
program, are in varying
degrees interdisciplinary,
and are relatively rare in
the Pennsylvania State
College network. This
greater diversification of
college services reflects the
philosophy which was
prompted by Secretary of
Education Zeigler before he
retired a year ago. He had
required colleges to redirect into different areas.
A sixth new program,
offering a B.S. in Management and Science, is in the
planning stage at present.
It is aimed at the student
who is interested in
employment in a small
business, civil service job,
or in the larger industrial
•model, on the management
level.
According to Dean Williamson, "Generally speaking all of these programs
have been built around
existing courses and faculty." Conceming how they
will affect the existing
departments, he stated "I
think they will have a
positive effect. All these
students will be enrolled in
the General Education
requirements to begin with.
They will impact favorable
on all of the departments of
the school." He forsees no
financial repurcussions
"except if the state moves
in the direction of program
funding." Dr. Williamson
feels "Education c a n ' t
remain a static affair and
survive. This is where the
colleges will survive -through diversification."
Choir presents
"Winter Celebrations"
The College Choir will
present a Winter Choral
Concert in the Sloan
Theatre at 8 p . m . on
Friday, Dec. 9th.
The featured selection on
the program will be
"Winter Celebrations" by
Frackenpohl, an ecumenical musical version of the
Christmas season which
includes several wellknown hymn tunes and
carol melodies, accompanied by a variety of
instruments including percussion, marimba, guitar,
string bass, piano, and
harpsichord.
TTie work is tied together
by the narration. The
harpsichord to be used is
one recently completed by
John Schwarz and Russell
Nelson of the music
department.
The program will open
with selections by the
Recorder Ensemble, directed by Dr. Schwarz. Choral
selections will be presented
by a 100-voice combined
choir which includes students
from
the
Choral Seminar.
Also on the program will
be solo presentations by
College Choir members
who have been studying in
the "Applied
Voice"
course.
The choir is under the
direction of Gary Renzelman.
ART EXHIBIT - Barbara Eiswerth of Camp Hill, left, and Jennifer Motter of
Jersey Shore, right, two graduating seniors in art, will present an exhibit of their
work in the Sloan Gallery on Dec. 6-10. On display will be representative
examples of the art work they have produced as students at the college,
including paintings, pottery, sculpture, jewelry, and crafts. A reception for the
two students artists will be held in the gallery at 8 pm. on Thursday, Dec. 8, all
friends and acquaintances invited to attend.

Grad Program = Bull Shit
Being affiliated with the SCC for the past year I have
become involved in numerous discussion concerning the
necessity of a Graduate Studies Program. Dr. Hamblin.
president of this esteemed college, is pushing hard for a
graduate program.
Sure, this would be a fine feather in the cap of top notch
personnel at this school. But what about the people that
really count, the students? We will all be told about how
great the college will become, how it will draw many more
students to this campus etc. Bull shit!
If administration wants to do something, how about
upgrading the shoddy undergraduate programs. In particular the English department. I am an English major who has
had it up to here taking survey courses. I will be a senior in
the spring and if I want to take an English course it has to be
one of the same ones offered semester after semester.
None of these courses go in depth. Hell, they don't
have time. It's rush, rush, rush, to read seven thousand
stories written by five hundred different authors. When its
all done you know nothing except you paid fifty dollars for
the paper backs you needed to finish the course.
The college has finally offered a Journalism major and
has one professor on campus to teach it. That's nice of them.
So many undergraduate programs are hurting. They are all
so repetitious.
I could name every English course to be offered in the
fall. That's pathetic. It's time the English, Journalism, and
liberal arts professors get together and fight for change. I
can't believe a professor enjoys teaching all survey courses.
Make the curriculum more challenging.
People always say if you have a complaint go through
the proper channels. If you do, though, it takes years to get
anything done. So, I am asking professors in general and
English professors in particular to change some courses and
add new ones. There are twenty sections for Dimensions of
Literature. Whynot cut a few, allowing professors to go into
great authors like Homer and literary works like the
Odyssey or Dante's Inferno?
So much can be done and it isn't and English students
literally are wasting their time. It's sad and unfortunate
but true. So to hell with graduate school, I just want tograduate: schooled in my major.

On behalf of the Athletic

which they provided the

championship. The whole
affair was done first-class
and I'm sure will be

This nice gesture on the
part of ARA is only one of
many which they have
extended to the Athletic

to our campus. They have
assisted us many times in
our endeavors and we want
them to know that we
certainly appreciate it.
I would certainly hope
that all students would

Pledges See Better Days Ahead
by DEBBI LUHR
Pledging a fraternity or
• sorority was once a very
hazardous thing to do. Back
in the fifties and sixties
people would sometimes
get killed on pledge
projects. Right now, pledging at LHS is changing
greatly. Years ago pledging
for the most part was
harder than it is today.
Although pledging has
changed, pledges still have
many basic requirements
they must meet, mentally
and sometimes physically.
Deborah Gerst, a sister
of Alpha Sigma Tau (AET)
for three y e a r s , says
pledging has gotten easier.
Now, she said there is no
physical abuse. The mental
strain is the same as when
Deb pledged because the
pledges "all have to know
the same amount of stuff."
She is glad there is no
physical abuse. The mental
aspects of pledging should
stay the same because that
is what makes pledging.
Kim Wittich pledged
AET this semester. She
said parts of it were hard
and parts of it were fun.
Kim believed the program
was more mental. A large
part of the mental was
"always wondering and
worrying what the sisters
think of you." She said "I
did enough (work) to make
me see what I was doing."
Kim also said, "At the
beginning, I couldn't see
the purpose of a lot of the'
things we were doing. But
now as I sit down and think
about it, I can see there was
a reason why we were told
to do it."
Rita Skavinsky, a sister
of Sigma Sigma Sigma
(EEE) for one and one half
years said pledging "hasn't
gotten easier" since she
pledged. She said that it
has changed though. Rita
said she is glad to see the
change in the program.
Karen Rathman pledged
EEE this semester. She
said it "takes a lot of
time." Karen thinks the
pledge program should stay
the same. She continued,
"It wouldn't be worth it if it
were easier." She said that
during pledging she really
learned a lot about herself.
Sue Eschbach, a sister of
Sigma Kappa (EK) for two
and one half years said,
"Though the goals are the
same for pledges, the
means of achieving them
are different." Sue said,
"The emphasis has become
more mental." She thinks
that some changes are
better and some are worse.
Sue said because of the
changes in the pledge
program, some "ideals and
responsibilities are being
less ingrained in the
individual." she also stated, "I see things changing
back somewhat - it is a
good change to see."
Terri (Tigger) Beegle
pledged EK this semester.
She said it was a lot of
work. Tigger wants pledges
to work "just as hard as I
h a v e . " She also said,
"There was a lot of mental
strain with just one pledge.
A lot of people don't know
it's as hard as it is." She
learned a lot about herself
through pledging. Tigger
said pledging was a lot of
fun, but a lot of work.
Pledging is something you
have to find out for
yourself," she said. "If I
can do this, I can do
anything."
Traci Waryck, a sister of
Zeta Tau Alpha (ZTA) for
two and one half years said
the pledge program has
gotten easier. She said
she's "sorry in away." She
feels the pledges now are
"lacking something that I
have." The pledge program is now "centered
around mental" she said.
Traci also said it's "hard to
make adjustments for two
p l e d g e s . " The program
must be revised somewhat.
Mary Kay Tettis pledged
ZTA this semester. She
said pledging is not easy.
She stated it was hard work
but for a good purpose.
Mary Kay doesn't want the
program to be easier
because, "If I have to do it,
I want them
(future
pledges) to do it too." She
learned what a sorority is
and she "got to know
people besides surface
relationship."
Russ Freeze, a brother of
Acacia for two and one half
years says the pledge
program is different and a
little harder than when he
pledged. He said he is glad
it's harder and for the time
being, hard enough. Russ
said there was " m o r e
physical harrassment when
I pledged." Next semester
he would like to see more
road trips. (That is when
they take the pledges to
meet brothers at other
Acacia houses.)
The man who pledged
Acacia this semester said
pledging was hard, but
meaningful. He said,
"There had to be a purpose
for everything and there
was." He said it was more
work than fun, but he did
have fun pledging. He also
thinks the pledges should

Len Rucci, a brother of
Kappa Delta Rho (KDR) for
two and one half years said
the pledge program hasn't
gotten easier. He said
pledging is still the same
because "tradition at KDR
will always stay the same."
He said the program is a
mental one and that this
semester's pledges will
"contribute greatly to the
brotherhood in future
years." Len said the stress
is put on the mental aspect
of pledging because "mental preparation will help
them (the pledges) for
future life."
Pete Hanlon pledged
KDR this semester. He said
it was very hard, but
worthwhile. He said the
program was a mental one.
He said, "It was more
mental with two guys. The
smaller the pledge class,
the more mental the
program." Pete said he's
"very glad pledging is over
and now the responsibility
has begun."
John Bach, a brother of
Lambda Chi Alpha (AXA)
for one and one half years
said pledging has changed
"all for the better" this
semester. This semester
they have associate brothers instead of pledges. The
associate brothers have
almost all the rights of a full
brother. When associate
brothers are brotherized,
they become full brothers.
John said the physical is
gone from their program.
He said the changes are for
the better, but "I still have
mixed feelings about, the
change."
Dan Price was the first
semester of Associate
brothers with AXA. He said
it wasn't hard, but it was an
"experience to be rememb e r e d . " He said the
program shouldn't get any
easier or tougher. Dan said
it was hard work, but fun.
He saw a "purpose in
everything" he did.
Guy Tanner pledged
Sigma Pi (EP) in 1973. He
said pledging is not as hard
as it was, but it's "better
this way. It's more relaxed
and f u n . " When he
pledged there was physical
and mental parts of
pledging. He said they still
have both, but they are
cut-back. He said the
program has "changed for

the better."
Pete Fox pledged EP this
semester'. He said pledging
was hard but, "If you want
something, you have to put
up with stuff to get it."
Pete said, "I can see the
point in why they made us
do what they
did."
Pledging was fun, good in
some parts, bad in others.
He believed he learned
more about other people.
Keith Kern, a brother of
Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE)
for three and one half years
said pledging has become a
"little easier overall" since
he pledged. He said there
is much more emphasis on
academics than before.
Keith said the pledge
program has become less
physical because "physical
doesn't develop a person."
Mentally the pledges have
done "about the same as
everyone in the p a s t "
because everyone must
know the brothers and the
fraternity.
Jon Peters pledged TKE
this semester. He said
pledging is hard and
"almost all mental." He
said he worked hard but he
had fun, too. Jon said the
physical part of pledging
doesn't have any purpose.
He said, "You leam alot
about yourself. You get so
many different opinions of
yourself, it begins to sink in
after awhile."
Ollie Smith, a brother of
Phi Mu Delta (PMD) for
three years said the format
has changed since he
pledged. There was more
physical and less mental
emphasis before. He is glad
to see the change. There is
more constructive work and
less humiliation. Ollie said,
"More respect is given to
pledges." He stated there
is more brother-pledge
relations now.
Russ Noll pledged PMD
this semester. He said it
wasn't hard and sometimes
it was fun. He beleived,
"Some things should be
easier, but not pledging in
g e n e r a l . " Russ said a
program with more emphasis on mental is better
because "You learn more
by mental."
Pledge programs have ^
changed at LHS; some
times easier, sometimes
harder, but mostly just
different. The times are
changing and the Greeks
are changing with the times
in order to maintain or
increase their popularity.
(CPS)-The office of college
president traditionally carries with it a large degree of
ecohomic security and
ample privileges. The cushiness of the job has often
prompted' criticism from
students and underpaid
faculty.
A Indiana University
they're doing more than
talking. A petition, signed
by more than
3,000
students, has been presented to the Board of Trustees
asking them to reduce the
salary of President John W.
Ryan. It recommends that
the president's pay be cut
from the present $62,500 to
$50,000 a year, according to
the Chronicle of Higher
Education.
The students complained
that he had the use of a
university-owned automobile, received an expense
allowance for entertaining
university guests, and lived
firee in an official residence.
They argued that, with
faculty and staff members
receiving raises 5.5 percent, Mr. Ryan's increase—
24 percent over the past
two years-could be lowered.
Faculty members at
Indiana have complained
that the salaries of top
administrators are going up
much faster than theirs.
The salary of the university's executive vice-president, W. George Pinnell,
has been raised by 31
percent over the last two
years, to $55,000.

Before another near capacity crowd of 2,500, the
Bald Eagle wrestlers remained undefeated (2-0) by
both outclassing and outhustling a strong Montclair
St. 31-15, Saturday night.
Monclair entered the contest as the number one
ranked team in the NCAA
Division III and defending
national champs. Montclair
had a 2-1 record, with only
a narrow loss being to Princeton marring its record.
Spearheading
the
Lock
Haven attack were
Mike Nauman, 158. and Al
Fricke, 190, both winning
by decisions. Scoring falls
for the 'Haven' were Dave
Moyer, 134; co-captain
Michael Moore, 142; and
275-pound Gregg Koontz,
who is rapidly becoming
one of the nations premier
heavyweights. Gary Uram,
118, won by disqualification, when his opponent
was forced to quit because
of passivity. The MoyerMike Blakely match was
probably the nights biggest
'barn-burner'. Trailing 4-3
in the 3rd period the lanky
Moyer cought his opponent
with a 'cradle' from the top
position and won by a fall in
6:52 to the delight of the
partisan
crowd.
