Graduate stays local, gives back to community
Amanda Miner
Staff Reporter
aminer@lhup.edu
Charles Bungo, a
recent Lock Haven
University graduate,
has made a decision to
stay local and use his
experience to benefit

others.
Bungo is a May
2009 graduate from
Lock Haven with a
degree in General
Studies. He was very
active in the music
department the entire

His musical career
did not begin when he
entered college.
He
says that he "can't
remember
a
time
when [he] didn't do
something musical."
When he was very
young, he attended
church with his family
where his mother sang
in the choir and sometimes encouraged him
to join in. This was
the part in his life
when Bungo learned
to read music and
became
passionate
about it. He says that
"people overcomplicate
music. Anyone can do
it."
When it comes to
performing he loves
being on stage, but it
wasn't always that
way. For about eight
years as a child,
Bungo participated in
theater camps during
the summer where he
"was nervous about
forgetting lines and
being embarrassed."
He enjoys playing
music in front of an
audience because it
gives him the chance
to be the thing that

"When you're performing music it's not
about you, it's about
how people feel when

While taking classes at Lock Haven
University,
Bungo
formed a good relationship with Mark
and Jeff Schlesinger,
the owners of Music

him a position in their

Feud continues between townspeople, students

Lyndsey Hewitt

lhewitt2@lhup.edu

Recently
Lock
Haven students have
been in the local news
more so than usual. A
few separate incidents
involving LHU students
alcohol
have
and
occurred, one being at
Evergreen Commons
and the other being at
the "Wrestling House".
Since those incidents
have occurred, the Lock
Haven police department has dealt with
every person involved
legally.
After the bust at the
Wrestling House, 21 of
the 31 students that
were cited at the party
received fines for drinking under age. They
also were sentenced to
two days in prison in a
move "designed to send
a strong message."
While the students
are suffering the consequences of their actions,

Inside: This Week

many of the townspeople are in an uproar and
seem to have the misconception that the
majority of Lock Haven
students are destructive
and
sloppy.
After a letter to the
editor was sent in to the
Express by a local
woman on September
29th stating that, T do
not live in Lock Haven,
but if I did I think I
would be contacting the
university every day
and demanding these
"students" be sent home
until they grow up,"
some students became
angry. Those students
that have been busted
in recent news will most
certainly be thinking
twice about what they
did. After Rita Dershem
stated that Evergreen
Commons should be
labeled a nuisance
property and calls LHU
students
"kids", it
caused a whole slew of
related articles about
the
issue.
One man even wrote
News A1-A4, A8
Classifieds A5
Opinions A6-A7
Sports B1-B4
Features B5-B8

a letter in saying that
many Lock Haven students use Lock Haven
as a personal playground and "vomitorium" while we are here
for our four short years.
Many students agree
that this is all exaggerated and the townspeople should not let a few
incidents generalize a
whole student body.
When
Rachel
Degler, a tenant of
Commons
Evergreen
was asked how she
would feel if Evergreen
Commons should be
labeled a 'nuisance
property' she looked
exasperated.
"Why would they
label it that? A few kids
got out of control. It was
taken care of. It's normally quiet and it's a
safe place," said Degler.
Many college towns
seem to have this problem of the division of
the community and college students. They feel
as though they are
being targeted and

unfairly thought of as
unmannered and out of
control. It is something
that has gone on for
years in the town of
Lock Haven. Many are
wondering how the students and the townspeople can come to
some sort of understanding.
In a time where the
media suggests that
drinking and partying
are part of college life, it
is hard for an unknowing and inexperienced
college student to enter
college and not expect
there to be raging parties like they see in the
movies to be near by.
Songs like "I Love
College" by Asher Roth
have lyrics with a chorus line that say, "I love
college. I love drinkin'. I
love women. I love college," are billboard top
songs.

Movies
like
"National Lampoons:
Animal House", "Old
School", and all of the
"American Pie" movies,

are all movies that
much of the youth of
today love to watch and
those movies strongly
suggest that college is
largely
partying.
It also doesn't help
that LHU is located a
mere half hour away
from
Penn
State
University, which was
dubbed the number 1
party school in the
nation
this
year.
Changing what is
playing on the radio
and what movies students are watching may
be impossible, but there
are ways to ease the
tension between the
community and college.
Cops are expected to do
their job, but many
LHU students would
like to see the townspeople be a little more
understanding with the
way
things
have

changed.

because of the current
recession the United
States is in. Expensive
colleges' enrollments
are decreasing and
more affordable universities, such as LHU, are
better
becoming a
option for prospective
students. According to
an article published in
USA Today, new and
prospective college students are abandoning
their "dream schools" in
favor of more affordable
options.
The article also stated that more than 65%
of high schools reported
an increase in the number of students planning to apply to a state
school instead of a private university. These
statistics allude to the
fact that Lock Haven
University will, in fact
grow and continue to
grow in future years.

The university has
grown significantly and

Writing center great for help

Amanda Miner
Staff Reporter
aminer@lhup.edu

The
on-campus
writing center, located
in Raub 409, offers
services
including
computers and printers for student use,
tutoring for every
stage of the writing
process,

self-instruc-

tional manuals, and
online
tutoring.
It is a great way to
prepare or get help for
a class assignment.
Many professors on
campus
encourage
their students to seek
help from the tutors
that are available.
There is also an
alternative to visiting
the physical writing
center. The writing
website,
center

http://www.lhup.edu/w
ritingcenter/index.htm
, offers students an
opportunity to submit
their writing by email,
and receive feedback
from the tutors. These
submissions must be
made at least three to
four days in advance of
the
due
date.
It is preferred if
students come to the
writing center with a
rough draft to receive
the maximum amount
of help.
Students
should give themselves plenty oftime to
visit the writing center
so that they have an
ample amount of time
to make any corrections to the paper
before it is due to the
instructor of a course.
If a student is
struggling to start a
paper, tutors are also

willing to sit down and
talk
about
the
prospects before beginning the actual writing
process.
"The writing center
really helped," said
sophomore
Jena
Meyer. "Not only did I
get a better grade on
my paper, but I realized what kinds ofmistakes I make all the

time."
At the writing cen-

ter, the tutors are not

just there to help a
student get a better
grade on one paper;
they are there to help
the students see what
types of mistakes they
make when writing.
Their hope is students
can improve future
papers when they may
not have a "writing
center" for such assistance.

Safety tip of the week: Fraud and phishing
Biancha Kranzley
Staff Reporter
Bkranzle@lhup.edu

Credit fraud, also
known as internet
phishing scams, prey
on the unwary.
The most common
form of phishing is by
email. Phishing conartists claim to be from
a reputable company
and usually ask you to
confirm your personal

information. This information can then be
used by the thieves to
order goods and services or obtain credit.
A phishing e-mail
can look quite convincing so it's important
that you become familiar and aware of this
fraud.
Phishing
attempts may also try
to impart a sense of
urgency to get recipients to respond before
thinking through the
situation.
Usually, a phishing

e-mails contain a link
to a phony Web site
that looks just like the
real thing. In fact, the
phony web pages can
look so similar to the
actual web site, even
experts will have a
tough time distinguishing between the real
and the fake web sites.
Creating phony web
sites are not the only
methods of con artists.
Phishers also use the
phone to hunt for personal
information.
Some,
posing
as
employers, call people
who have listed themselves on job search
web sites or claim to be
an employer of a reputable company such
as your bank, to collect
personal information.
The Public Safety
staff at Lock Haven
University cares about
your safety. They have
provided a few tips to
help protect you from

Haught will likely still
be covered if Congress
OKs the bill.
Officials
have
approved the legislation three times since
enacting the bill in
1990. Former President
George W. Bush signed
the bill in 2006, continuing its goal to provide
financial and medical
assistance to 500,000
Americans living with
HIV or AIDS.
Without this financial
assistance,

Haught wouldn't be
able to afford monthly
medication costs of
$1,719. She takes three
different types of med-

ication for HIV and 16

The average monthly cost for HIV- or
AIDS-related medication ranges from $1,200
to $1,600 a month, Kris
Davis, an advanced
nurse practitioner at
the UI Hospitals and
Clinics' virology clinic,
said.
Nearly 2,000 Iowans
are living with HIV or
AIDS.
The Ryan White Act
includes four main
parts: A, B, C and D.
Iowa receives funding

Haught knows the
frustration and pain of
being denied lifesaving
medication. In 2005,
she was one of 14 people put on a waiting
list. More than 100 people are waiting for
assistance.
"It's just unacceptable that here in
America people don't
have access to these

said.

The University of

provided medical services to 457 patients last

Nationwide,
the

past three years. In
2007, Iowa received
nearly $4.5 million in
assistance for medication, education, and

The Ryan White Act
is a "payer of last

In terms of religion, I am not an avid
one of practice. I do
believe in some form
of higher being, but I
am unsure of what
that means to me.
For me, it is not
about the fact that
you have an organized
religion. It is about
finding
something
that fits your lifestyle
and fits who you are. I
am a firm believer in
out
what
finding
works for you, and
being able to have an
open mind; especially
when it comes to
something that people
are often so closed
minded about.

thankful because in
some families, others
are not as lucky.
My Grandmother
and Grandfather were
very involved in the
church, and would
attend services every
Sunday and on holidays. Also, they did a
lot for the church in
terms of donations
and service time. With
their deaths, my family, in honor of them,
started doing more for
the church because we
felt that this is what
they
would
have
wanted.
I, too, help in these
efforts. Though it may
not seem right, I feel

that even though I do
not follow this path, I
am closer to them
because I am continuing the work as they
would have wanted.
This makes the experience much more
rewarding for me.
Though I am not a
religious person, one
prayer that has much
impact on me is, "God

things I can, and the

next.
(Serenity Prayer).
Honestly, I never
heard this
before
at
Lock
arriving
Haven. I was never
exposed to these elements, thus, I never
put them into my
actions in life. Now, I
turn to the Serenity
Prayer when I am
down, when I feel as if
I cannot find certainty, when the road as I
see cannot go any further.
I often feel that
when you are in college, you find a point
when
cannot
you
decide. Where you can
see the options both
roads offer you, and
choosing is merely
impossible. But with
this saying in mind, I
feel as if the right
decision is made easi-

er to see.
I understand that
there is a method to
our lives, that we all
follow
a
plan.
Whether we want to
admit it or not, we are
all on the same path,
just experiencing different obstacles as we
continue. I do believe
in a higher being, and
with this we find an
inner peace that cannot be found anywhere else.
For me, this saying
talks of acceptance,
courage, and wisdom.
These are three things
we all ask for out of
life. We ask for acceptance of the people we
know and those we
don't; we ask for
courage, to face whatever our days hold.
Whether it be trying
or not, each morning
we awake with the
that
understanding
the day might bring
sorrow,
heartache,
pain, etc. We all need
courage to make it
through life. Finally,
we ask for wisdom,
the knowledge of how
this life works and
how to
make
it
through.
All of these factors
are interlocked, and
without all three we
lack a necessary link
to survive what is
being thrown at us.
We need acceptance
and courage to meet
new people, and to
bring ourselves to
open up to those we do
not know
even to
those we wish to never
connect
with.
Additionally, we need
the courage to learn
and the wisdom to
apply what is learned.
There are times
though, when even
with an abundance of
acceptance, courage,
and wisdom, we simply cannot make it

-

through. There comes
a time when we reach
our limits. We reach a
place were we are
helpless, where no
matter which path we
decide, we cannot simply find our way. In
this case, a higher
authority is needed.
When we reach our
wits end, we must rely
on another.
So whenever you
find yourself standing
at one of many crossroads, think to yourself what will be
gained from this experience and how you
will ultimately be bettered by it. We cannot
come to a crossroad
and simply choose
without
thinking.

It truly baffles me
how things can completely turn around
over the course of one
year. Some of the
changes are good,
some are not so good.
And I often found
myself wondering if it
is
that
has
me
changed, or if it is the
people around me who
have changed.
I think back to
where I was this time
last year: six weeks
into
my freshman
establishing
year,
friendships with people who I now consider
my closest friends, and
simply trying to make
it through my classes.
Now I find myself six
weeks into my sophomore year, still hanging out with my closest
friends, and still simply trying to make it
through my classes.
Looking at it that
way, it doesn't seem
like
much
has
changed. But looking
back on everything
that has happened in
the past year, I realize
just how much is different.

This time last year,
I remember what my
weekends were like:
my two best friends
and my roommate
would all go home, and
I spent an embarrassing amount of time sitting in my room
watching the first six
seasons of "Degrassi"
on DVD.
Finally, one of my
friends who stuck
around on the weekends realized that I
had been spending
many weekends on my
own, and he invited
me down to his dorm
to watch movies one
We
Friday
night.
ended up going to dinner with a group of his
friends that night, and
before I knew it, I had
a new group of friends.
This group of people became a huge part
of my life for the following five months. I
spent almost every day
hanging out with the
same group of people
until all hours of the
watching
night
movies, playing video
games that I barely
knew anything about,
and just having a good
time.
I became so close
with this group that I

could not imagine my
life without them. I
was also convinced
that
would
they
always be there. But
people change. Things
change. And within
the matter of a week,
everything that I had
gained in those five
months was gone. I've
constantly heard the
saying, "you don't
know what you've got
'til it's gone," but I had
never actually felt that
way until that point.
It took me a while
to get over everything.
After what had happened, I thought that
everyone hated me.
Slowly, each of my former friends came to
me and told me that
they didn't hold anything against me, and
that they weren't mad
at me.
Over the past seven
months or so, I have
been trying to reconstruct the bridges that
were broken in that
one week. And over
the past seven months,
I have finally learned
the meaning behind
something I have
heard all of my life:
"you don't need people
in your life who don't
need you in theirs."

I do believe I am

and let God, something I learned in
church. I am ready to
let everything run its
course. I am not meant

want to be. While I
will always cherish the
memories I have of
these people, I don't
think I will ever be
close with them again.

this.

The Department of
Health and Human
Services has released
guidelines to combat the
spread of the HlNl flu in
preparation for the
upcoming flu season.
The guidelines are
targeted specifically at
college campuses and
mostly call for maintaining hygiene and facilitating isolation when a person falls ill with the
virus.
The guidelines suggest universities relax
absentee rules to make it
easier for sick students
to stay home and also to
suspend classes in the
event of a serious outbreak.
"We released it now,
in August, to allow
schools to prepare for the
flu season," said Candice
Burns, spokeswoman for
the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention.
"They present action
they can take now and
strategies they can use if
the flu is more severe
than the spring and
summer."
University Provost
and Executive Vice
President Karen Hanson

also suggested reviewing
grading procedures to
accommodate any illnesses.
"You will also want to
consider a range of alternatives (depending on
the circumstances) for
evaluating students' performance in the event of
widespread absenteeism
or a significant interruption," she said in an email to faculty.
Although cases on
ILFs campus have been
limited, Hanson encouraged faculty and students in research and
creative activity groups
to develop "contingency
plans" for absences
caused by an outbreak.
"The federal Centers
for Disease Control and
the
Indiana
State
Department of Health
now expect that the
HlNl flu will be more
widespread this fall and
will have a significantly
greater effect on normal
activities during the
upcoming regular flu
season (and possibly earlier)," Hanson said in the
e-mail.
The guidelines suggest several ways to isolate the spread of an
HlNl case, including
instituting a "flu buddy
scheme" in which an
infected person limits

interaction to only one
other person.
"The guidance put a
menu of strategies to
keep facilities open while
reducing spread of flu to
faculty and staff," Burns
said.
IU spokesman Larry
Maclntyre has yet to
read the guidelines, but
said the University has a
committee in place that
monitors the situation
daily. The University
already handled two
cases of HlNl in late
May.
"President McRobbie
and especially our health
staff and risk management staff have been
carefully following guidance that is coming from
our federal government
and state health officials,
and we're pretty confident that we've got a systern in place here in
Bloomington to stay on
top of this situation and
quickly identify any
HlNl cases that might
arise," Maclntyre said.
He also mentioned
that all residence halls,
staff and students have
been
careful
given
instructions on what to
do if a case surfaces.
Regular flu vaccines
are available at the IU
Health Center, and
said the
Maclntyre

HlNl vaccine will be
available as soon as it
comes in.
Burns said the virus
spreads the quickest
among people six months
to 24 years old, which is
why the CDC's Advisory
on
Committee
Immunization Practices
is recommending that
people younger than 25
be one ofthe first groups
to receive the vaccine
when it becomes available in October.
Other groups at risk
include the elderly, pregnant women and people
with children, especially
children
under
six
months of age because
they are unable to
vaccinations
receive
themselves.
Maclntyre said that
in the event of an outbreak, any decisions
affecting the University,
including
suspending
classes, would have to be
carefully weighed.
"These are judgment
calls, and there is a lot of
guidance now from
HHS," Maclntyre said.
"That committee will be
monitoring the situation
daily and will make a
recommendation
to
President McRobbie any
time there's a question."

is devastating enough to
close their doors. Six of
the 94 centers that support survivors of domestic violence have been
closed in just two
months.
Other centers and
shelters are cutting servservices and closing remote
that
offices, meaning that
domestic-violence survivors may have less
access to essential services, and what services
they can access will be
limited. Many centers
are only able to keep the
most basic services those that provide ternporary safety - and have
to cut those that most
effectively empower survivors to leave their
abusers. Programs that
provide legal services,
counseling and transitional funding have been
cut in order to keep
emergency services.
In September, the
state Senate had a
chance to reinstate this
funding after the state
Assembly unanimously
passed the bill. However,
senators

blocked the bill to refund
the programs.
According to the Los
Angeles Times, Senate
Republicans blocked the
bill that would reinstate
domestic-violence-shelter funding because the
state Democrats would-

n't eliminate a state program that helps lowincome families prepare
their tax returns for free.
While the state taxreturn program may be
distasteful
to
the
Republican small-government ethos, it's difficult to believe that tax
returns alone are enough
to make Republican senators cut vital funding to
the shelters and centers
that provide life-changing, even life-saving
resources to domestic
violence survivors,
Unsurprisingly, this
political tragedy has
more to do with money
than morals. Intuit, the
maker of TurboTax, a
private tax-preparation
software, has donated to
the campaigns of 29 of 40
state senators and has
lobbied for the dissolution of the state tax
return program.
Even if these campaign donations are not
the Republican's motivating factor, they are
still putting the lives of
Californians on the line
for the sake of a state tax
program,

LHU Boxing Club is ready

And in the red corner! The LHU Boxing
Club is ready for several upcoming matches this winter.
Coach Ken Cox is
working with the team
almost every night on
the
2nd floor of
Zimmerli from 4:30 to
6:30 p.m. to get them
ready for the rest of
the long season. In
fact,
boxing
goes
through both semesters, September to
April where they compete in the National
Collegiate
Boxing
Association (NCBA).
There are only
around 30 schools in
the country to have
boxing as a program,
so these privileged
young athletes are
certainly grateful for
the
opportunity.
Junior criminal justice
major, Donnie Brady,
who fights at the 172
lb. weight class, was
very excited to come to

efforts and he added
one tackle for a loss.
Barie had four solo
tackles.

players made five or
more tackles for LHU.

Josh Portis went 17for-23 passing for 274

"I started boxing
when I was 14," said
Brady. "It was great to
find a school with the
program." Brady competed
in amateur
fights at his hometown gym and plans to
possibly continue boxing after college. "I
love this sport," he
said.
The team has a
designated area to
practice in Zimmerly,
with a home-made
boxing ring for sparring and a practice
room on the other side
of the men's locker
room. "It's the perfect
size for our group,"
said Coach Cox, "the
school has always
been supportive of the
program."
The boxing program had been at
LHU until 1940, and
was dropped around
the time of WWII.

Scott
physician
Anderson has become
an outspoken advocate
of sickle cell tests.
Anderson
became
aware of the potential
complications of sickle
cell about 10 years ago
when one of his players was suffering from
back spasms during
the first day of football
conditioning.
Anderson and the doctors who treated the
player assumed the

the doctors also made
note that the athlete
had sickle cell trait.
Anderson changed
his opinion after Dr.
Randy Eichner joined

and told him the player had been experiencing exertional sickling

and lack of oxygen.
This possibility was

Anderson, and, he
knew
it had not
occurred to most college trainers across
the country.
From that point,
Anderson
began
screening all athletes
who came to the
of
University
Oklahoma. But at that
time,
Anderson
recalls, early in this
decade, the NCAA did

:

not even mandate a

"So how are they
going to require or
even recommend a
component of something that 'doesn't

said.

"There certainly is

"But in the meantime,
there's a body count

"A lot not known"
Sophie
Dr.
Lanzkron, director of
the Sickle Cell Center
for Adults at Johns
Hopkins University,
said it is conceivable
that sickle cell trait
carriers could be at
risk for a catastrophic
event during physical
exertion. But it has
not yet been proven.
Lanzkron said that

be true of sickle cells
in the body of someone
who has taken his last
breath.
Because of this,
Lanzkron said some
coroners may have
diagnosed a sicklerelated death because
they observed blood
cells which actually
changed shape after
the athlete had died.
"Really, honestly it
hasn't even been studied enough to know
whether it's true,"
Lanzkron
said.
"There's a lot not

known."
"A potentially stigmatizing fact"
Kansas City Chiefs
wide receiver Bobby
Engram, 36, has sickle
cell trait and is three
games into his 14th
NFL season. Engram
caught six passes in a
Super Bowl and in the
early 90s rewrote the
Penn State University
record books, including a four-touchdown
performance against
Minnesota.
Engram says he
has
experienced
cramping a few times
during practices and
games, but he does not
know whether his
sickle cell trait caused
it. He said he would
support testing college
athletes, so long as the
results did not lead to
discrimination.
"My only concern is
that, whenever they
gather the information, that it's used in a
positive way," Engram
said. "I just don't want
it to affect any young
kid coming into college
and having a chance to
go get a scholarship."

William T. Piper's
story is one of a man
with great determination and a dream. His
dream was to make the
possibility of flying
available to anyone
who wanted to experience it. His goal was to
make a small and inexpensive plane that
could be purchased by
families.
He was a man who
was well-liked and
respected by everyone
he happened to meet.
My tour guide. Russ
Nelson, told the story
of Mr. I'iper's legacy
with passion and emotion. It was apparent
that he has a deep
respect and genuine
affection for the man.
As we went through
exhibits,
the
he
recounted the tale of a
man who started out
with a humble beginning and went on to
achieve great things.
Mr. Piper's story
starts in a one-room
school in his hometown

of Knapp Creek, New
York. After his early
education, he went on
to attend Harvard.
After graduation, he
chased his dream of
airplane building.
In 1929, with the
idea of family flying in
his head, he joined
forces with the Taylor
Brothers
Aircraft
Corporation. The company was based out of
Rochester, New York.
With the
Taylor's
knowledge of aircraft
building and Piper's
financial backing, they
began making planes.
The company suffered a devastating fire
in which the entire factory was destroyed.
Not to be discouraged,
Mr. Piper began looking for an alternate
location.
He received letters
from many towns seeking to have the company moved there. He
finally settled on a
location
Lock
in
Haven. The decision
was based on the fact
that he could build a
much larger factory
and the location was
ideal.
He was credited
with starting the first

full airplane assembly
line. One interesting
fact was that he hired
women to work alongside the men. This was
before WWII, when
many women worked
in such jobs as the men
were away with the
war.

Mr Nelson said, "A
young lady may hav,e
come into the company

looking for a job. She
would be all dressed up
in her skirt and heels,
hoping to get a job as a
secretary. Mr. Piper
would offer employment as a welder.
Although he paid the
women a small wage,
many ladies would
take him up on his
offer
because
he
included flying lessons
as part of their pay."
By 1938, the company began production of
the now famous J-3
"Piper Cub". It was a
small, fairly inexpensive, and easy-to-fly
plane.
It
quickly
became popular. At the
onset of WWII, the
plane caught the attention of the Army. They
contracted with Mr.
Piper to purchase 1500
planes for use in the
military. The planes

were used for flight
training, artillery spot-

ting, reconnaissance,
and even medical evacuation.
After the war, Mr.
Piper and his two sons
were able to turn the
company
into
the
world's leading aircraft
producer in terms of
aircraft build. He was
able to sell his planes
all over the world.
Some even called him
the "Henry Ford of
Aviation".
Mr Piper, passed
away in 1970 in Lock
Haven. His family,
friends, and employees
wanted to share the
story of their friend. To
honor him, they began
the Piper Aviation
Museum in 1994. It
stands today in the
56.000 square foot
building that was the
engineering building of
the Piper Corporation.
It is run by a small
paid staff and many
volunteers.
Both
groups are very knowledgeable of the company's history, as well as
a general understanding
of
American
Aviation. They are
always in need of more

volunteers.
The museum is
open
for
visitors
Monday
through
Friday from 9 a.m. to 4
p.m.. Saturday from 10
a.m. to 4 p.m., and
Sunday from 12 p.m. to
4 p.m. They charge a
small admittance fee.
The fee is $6 for adults,
$5 for senior citizens,
and $3 for children age
7-15; children six and
under are free. There
is also a discounted
rate of $12 for families.

Piper's
Museum counts on
income
from
the
admission fees, sales of
gift shop items, and
private donations to
help defray the costs.
The largest source of
funding
however,
comes from the rental
of vacant space in the
building.
They see approximately 2,500 visitors
annually. People come
to hear the history and
see the planes that are
on display in the airhangar.
port
Currently, there are
eight planes on display, as well as one
being restored.
Many visitors are

able to try their hand
at flying with the help
of their flight simulator. There is a small
additional fee for this
exhibit.
They also
maintain an archive
room to house many
old books on aviation,
company records, and
photos of the early
planes. Many people
find the area useful to
do research on the subject of early aviation.
Their records go back
as far as the 1930's.
I found the museum
a fun place to visit; I
stayed for an hour or
so. If you get the
chance to visit, there
are a lot of things to
see. The museum is
constantly changing
and
new
adding
exhibits to keep visitors interested and to
encourage them to visit
again.
The Piper Aviation
Museum is a wonderful
tribute to William T.
Piper. He is one of the
true innovators in the
history of the town of
Lock Haven.

from the paellera, the

"Traditionally, the

To make a paella, first
saute meats, such as
chicken, pork, rabbit, or
seafood, such as clams,
shrimps, mussels, crayfish, or squid. Use olive
oil and season with
onions, garlic and herbs.
Next, cook rice, tomatoes, and saffron, simmering over a low heat.
Finally, mix in the
meats and garnish with
peas, pimientos, and
other vegetables."

Lady Gaga will
release a deluxe edition of the album The
Fame. On November
24, 2009 Lady Gaga
will re-release "The
Fame Monster" edition. This album will
be a two disc set and
will include all the
tracks from her last
album, plus eight new
tracks. One of the
tracks did leak out
and it is called "Bad
Romance."
"Fame Monster" is
produced by RedOne
and it has a pop/techno sound and is very
upbeat like all of her
other songs.
Gaga's first album
made over $4 million ,
but Gaga is more
about the music than
the money.
"On my re-release
The Fame Monster, I

Congrats to Cassidy Charles!

What/where is it?

Q. So, what are you reading right now?
A. "The Other" by David Guterson, but that's for school, so it's like a cop out.
Q. But are you enjoying it?
A. I LOVE IT! It reminds me a bit of myself and others I've known through-

out my life. It also has a lot of adventures in the wilderness; climbing, which
I can't do, but which I could.

Q. So, if it weren't for class, what would you like to be digging into?
(
A. "Naked Lunch" by Charles Bukowski. I heard an interview ,,n M'R « ih'
the author [before he died] and his friend Jack Kerouac told him to write a book with the title "Naked
Lunch". I found it really interesting. It's about his addiction to heroin. Also had some teachers complain
about how choppy [throwing in chopping motion here, honest] the writing is, so I'm interested to see
how it works.

you just got done ordering a book on the internet?

A. Yes, "Armageddon in Retrospect" by Vonnegut. I've liked his more recent stuff because it's more of
a depiction of him and his own thoughts as he's nearing death.

Q. So, why do you want to teach?
A. My theory teacher won't like this, but I want to teach because I think kids are dumbing down
because adults aren't expecting much of them. I think they would get a lot more respect if they presented themselves in a more educated way. When I started reading books, my vocabulary strengthened
and my ability to speak increased and I feel people take me more seriously now. I'm going to be the
bitch teacher that everyone hates, but they'll look back in twenty years and understand what I was
going for. Plus, I get to yell at them and there's nothing they can do about it.

Q. Do you have a favorite class this semester?

A. My independent study with Myers. Some of the books are ones you would read in the class anyway,
but others are books that he's really excited to talk about. Like, I want kids to read books that they
want to talk to me about them. Less about a history lesson, more about making a connection.

Q. Finally, can you tell us a little about what the English Club is doing now?

A. Well, we meet every other Thursday at 5:15 in Raub 211. reading submissions of students' work.
We're collecting cans for Feed Clinton County food drive and have a collection box at Avenue 209. We're
