Favorable Results

Approximately seventy-eight , or
thirty-one per cent of the graduates have notified Dr. Engelhardt
of their placement in teaching positions. Dr. Engelhardt states that
this percentage is constantly growing as more and more seniors are
contacting his office.
Of these seventy-eight placements, only eighteen have taken
positions outside Pennsylvania.
The remaining sixty will become
BSTC' s addition to the teachers of
this state.
The elementary curriculum has
the largest percentage of placements. Of the fifty-six elementary graduates, thirty-nine, or approximately sixty-nine per cent
notified Dr. Engelhardt of their
placement. Of the seventy business
curriculum graduates, seventeen,
or approximately twenty-four per
cent have reported that they have
received placement. A n d of the
120 secondary graduates, only
t w e n t y - t w o , or approximately
eighteen per cent have contacted
the Placement Office.
The expected salary schedules
for the BSTC graduates seem to
be climbing with the rising state
allotments. In the elementary
placements, expected s a l a r i e s
range from $3200 to $4300 per
year. The secondary curriculum
pl acement salaries range from
$3200 to $4500. The business placement salaries range slightly higher, f rom $3200 to $4600 per year.
Copies of the 1957 Bloomsburg
College Placement Brochure have
been sent to interested educational boards in various areas throughout the state.

A LETTER
To one student who filled in the Maroon and Gold questionnaire :
No, we don't intend to "stop academic dishonsty by counting the
pros and cons and then announcing them in assembly, thus hoping to
curb the practice ," you cynic, you. The "ridiculous questionnaire"
wasn't nearly so ridiculous as your comments. But you did reply to the
questionnaire and you must have read last issue's editorial, so you're
probably not so disinterested and independent as you would like us to
believe.
To the 757 students who didn't reply:
We didn't expect one hundred percent co-operation in our efforts
to canvass student opinion, but certainly more than ten percent of the
student body is affected by cheating. And we know that more than that
number complain about it. Even if it were a poor questionnaire, (and
it probabl y was) it could have told us a great deal had everyone at
least given us his opinions. The lack of interest shown last week is
probabl y part of what one college editor called "the blah attitude".
It is found in almost all colleges in all phases of college life. It's found
in student government, in athletic competition, in social events, in
world affairs, and in education. As the Gettysburgian puts it, it's the "Idon't-give-a-damn-about-anything-I-just-want-to-graduate-and-get-ajob" attitude. Many people have the blah attitude and are proud of
it. Maybe we are actually a silent generation.
Are we silent because we are afraid to speak? Or is it simply because
we have nothing to say ?"
And to the 138 students who did reply:
We can do something about cheating, and we can do something
about the many other problems here at college. Any college is only as
good as the students in it. The questionnaires turned in were very
encouraging, very intelligent, and thoughtful. With College Council,
faculty, and administrative help, we can at least arrest the process if
we can't wipe it out entirely. Someone said that we shouldn 't let anything or anyone discourage us in our "crusade against cheating". We
don't intend to. We know that cheating is a problem in almost all colleges throughout the nation.
But , if all the world were starving, that wouldn 't give us the excuse
to allow ourselves to starve, too, without giving any resistance.

Responsibi lity Recognized
The Maroon and Gold is a student enterprise. Planning a newspaper
is a big job and it entails much responsibility. We arc obligated to the
College Community to be correct in our news coverage and to be fair
and level-headed in our editorial practice.
We have tried to be informed and judicious, but perhaps there have
been times when we failed. We do know of instances when we have
not been factual. For example, recentl y we listed onl y two of five members of a faculty commitee, and we spoke of a department head
where there is not one. And , since we are a responsible organization ,
and a fairl y efficient one, we would certainl y have been happy to rectif y our errors. But we have never made a formal correction , and there
is a reason why.

When the newspaper staff prints mistakes, or midsjudgements, there
are two ways by which we can rectif y them : 1) We can print the
corrected statement in the regular news columns, or 2) we can publish
a letter to the editor in which the mistake is noted.
In the March issue of this year we ran the note : "The Maroon and
Gold would like to encourage readers of this paper to write letters to
the Editor which we will publish in a Letters column. We welcome
criticism... However, we will not edit any letter for publication. We
reserve the right to publish only clear, coherent, intcllible accounts. All
letters must include the signature of the writer, however, names may
be withheld upon request."
Thus far we haven't received any such communication from either
faculty or students. Obviously, the newspaper stall cannot feel itself
responsible to make corrections on the basis of indirect criticism from
disgruntled people. If it is felt that we have offended anyone, we expect to have our attention called to the offense in writing.
Again, we want to remind our readers that the Maroon and Gold is
a student publication and we think it is reasonable to expect our responsibility to be recognized.

Results of Maroon and Gold Cheatin g Questionn aire

One hundred thirty-eight students replied to the Maroon and
Gold questionnaire on cheating last
week. We've tabulated the results
as well as we could in the limited
time we had and here report them.
If some of these figures add up to
much more than 138, remember
that students gave more than one
answer to a question.
QUESTIONS 1 and 2: These
were included to try to discover
the relationship of the amount of
cheating in a course to the attitude
of the students toward the value
of the cou rse , toward the instructor and toward the preventive
measures taken against cheating
by the teacher. The results of
those questions will have to be
studied long and carefully before
any conclusions can be drawn.
However, from the answers given,
cheating appears to be rampant in
some courses and to be practically
non-existent in others ; and in those
courses where cheating is at a
minimum , either the instructor is
excellent and highly respected by
his students, or he is a very good
policeman.
QUESTION 3: "What do you
think an instructor should do during an exam ? " The distribution of
answers was wide, but a good
maj ority of the students felt that
the teacher should observe either
from the rear of the room or by
moving around it. Only three
answered that he should engage
in some indifferent activity. The
opinion was generally accepted
th at the teacher should pay more
strict attention as to what is going
on during a test and should shed
the illusion that cheating occors
in other classes, but not in his.
QUESTION 4: Do you feel that
the bulk of the responsibility for
academic honesty should fall on
(students) or (faculty) or (both) ?
25 answered (students) , 13 said

Cinema
Suggestions
Welcome to the Cinema Corner,
but perhaps a note of explanation
about our purpose is apropos. Contrary to the opinion which may
arise we are not to be considered
"filler ".
Our purpose in existing is to
present you with the "facts" about
that famous slogan "Movies are
bett er than ever". The fact is,
and we offer examples as substantia tion, movies are becoming palatable. Then perhaps TV has an
important part in our society, to
drive us from our overstuffed and
understuffed chairs to the motion
picture theatre.
TWELVE ANGRY MEN, written by Reginald Rose of Playhouse
90 and Studio One is an excellent
psychological study about the influence that personal prejudice has
upon j udicial opinion. One hopes
that these occasions of undue influence are infrequent.

THE YOUNG S T R A N G E R

marks the first a ppearance , of
James McArthur who is, as you
may or may not know, the son of
America 's first lady of the theatre ,
Helen Hayes. He gives a fine , clear
portrayal of a confused teenager.
His delinquent parents, played by
James Daly and Kim Hunter are
c o m p l e t e l y believable . Young
Stranger is not another of those
abominable creations about "wild
teenagers", but a thoughtful presentation of a very real teenage
problem.

For those who want to escape
the din and noise of popular music
we recommend Funny Face. Along
with Fred Astair 's fine dancing,
we have Audrey Hepburn and Kay
Thompson as excellent reasons for
seeing the picture. George and Ira
Gershwin wrote the score.
For those watching for adequate
representation of contemporary
American opera, a ray of hope appears. Samuel Goldwyn will release Porjry and Begs starring
Harry Belafonte.
And now, for those interested in
blood and guts , Robert Ruark's
SOMETHI NG OF VALUE stars
Rock Hudson. Time Magazine says
that "it makes an Intelligent effort to live up to the title."
For you who are interested in
excellent foreign films, the Cannes
Film Festival offers the best, Last
year 's winner, GATE OF HELL is
an excellent example of Japanese
artistry.
LA STRADA and GOLD OF

NAPLES should be placed on your
list of unusually good Italian films.
In conclusion, we hope your vacation will be pleasant and that
our scribbling may serve as a
guide to many enj oyable hours
away from your television set.

( faculty) , and 100 checked (both).
Said one student , "Both should assume responsibility. Many of the
faculty take limited measures to
curb cheating. There are a few
who refuse to face the problem as
its magnitude demands. The students are equally at fault. Cheating, I'm afraid , has become a regular part of the student's academic
life. It has become a normal part
of the quest for a grade. "
QUESTION 5: How do you think
the cheating1 of others affects you ?
93 of the students checked "B"—
lowers the morale and integrity
of the student body, and 83 checked "C"—defeats the purpose of letter grades. And almost ninety percent (112) checked "A"—lowers
your grade. Four persons said it
had no direct effect.
QUESTION 6: Why do you think
students cheat ? These were the
answers and the number of students who checked each.
A. To get through college -»- 68
(several people added the words
"with as little work as possible")
B. To attain better grades—96.
C. General attitude toward cheating is favorable — 26.
D. Laxity on the part of the instructor — 67.
E. To complete with those who
habitually cheat — 61.
QUESTION 7: How extreme
should the punitive measures be
toward persons apprehended for
cheating- ? 58 recommended failure
in the test, 54 said f ailure in the
course, and 41 checked suspension
from school, while 13 thought social restriction and bad publicity
might be effective. Several suggested progressive punishment by
which repeated offenses would
warrant expulsion from school.
QUESTION 8. Do you feel that
an honor system could be gradually instituted in BSTC? In this

question the responses were divided almost evenly; 67 said "yes";
62 said "no ". And six modified
their answers with "not in the near
future ". Said one student , "Yes,
anything is possible, and another
added , "An honor system ? Are
you kidding?"
QUESTION 9: Would you support a campaign to curb this practice of cheating? Three persons
answered negatively ; one realistic
student answered the possible responses this way :
A. By showing disfavor toward
cheaters—"Y ou wouldn't have any
fri ends."
B. By not cheating yourself —
"and flunk because of mass cheating."
C. By publicly exposing cheaters
— "and be an outcast."
D. By exposing cheaters to instructors — "and not get any action—you can't tell a person he
isn't doing his j ob."
Genera lly, a good number checked each one, with heaviest response
on "B" (a very good indication).
QUESTION 10: called for comments , suggestions or criticism
which are pertinent to the problem. The results were varied and
interesting.
Not all the students added any
comments, but of those given, almost half of them pertained to the
testing methods of BSTC instructors. Students felt that teachers
invited cheating when they gave
the same test to differen t sections
several times a day or on consecutive days. They pointed out that
one dishonest student could upset
the whole system by carrying answers to a group of his friends in
another class. Most students felt
that if instructors could not make
up different tests for each class,
then they should administer one

Undet-cuttents . . . *«¦*,««

During the past weeks we've filled this sp ace with chatter about
teachers and teaching, about the nonsense and the Under-Currents on
campus, and at times about almost nothing. But now is the time when
the graduates must be thinking in terms of teaching as a career and
no doubt some undergraduates will be considering the possibility of not
returning in September. This school business is a topic that receives
muc h attention, and rightly so.
Dr. Charles M. Long, head of the Department of Education at Pennsylvania State University, is one of 120 men and women in all walks
of life who pay tribute to the teaching profession in a symposium just
compiled by Louise Sharp, Dean of Women at Central Michigan College.
He say s: "Teaching boys and girls to become better citizens and better able to live with themselves and others is a gross oversimplification
of a challenging and terrifying business, terrifying in a sense because the
welfare of so many people everywhere depends upon the teachers assuming a maj or responsibility for insuring that young people become increasingly able to make wise decisions. Teaching is more than requiring
young people to memorize and parrot back facts, skill s, and knowledge.
A modern , effective teacher begins with young people where they are
and helps them become increasingly competent in this all-important
matter of living effectively."
President Eisenhower says : "The nation 's strength depends upon the
minds of its people, as surely as it does upon their arms. The education
of young Americans is our first line of defense and a broad highway to
greater opportunity. Congratulations to those who have dedicated their
lives and talerits in the teaching profession. "
And the late Henry Van Dyke, eminent scholar of Princeton , long ago
wrote: "No one has deserved better of the republic than the unknown
teacher. No one is more worthy to be enrolled in a democratic aristocracy, king of himself and servant of mankind."
These are hardly meaningless, empty quotations. All we must do is
consider the impact of the schools of a nation on that nation itself.
Teachers have within their grasp, the destiny of a people. If we as
teachers and future teachers realize the implications of what "the
people " expect of us, our days should be full... challenging... and rewarding. And now... Madly Teach!!!

To Colle ge Students :

Today many commentators are characterizing the youth now in college as being apathetic, conformist, and disinterested in national or
world affairs. The basis for this characterization seems to come from
observations of the lack of student interest in college and university
functions and activities which have to do with politics.
While the American Mercu ry Magazine views such commentaries with
some' misgiving, it also regards them with some reservations; for if
there exists a state of apathy among students with respect to politics,
it is a situation almost without precedent.
In an effort to determine the validity of the charge "apathy ", Mercury
plans, in coming issues, to set aside pages which will be devoted exclusively to%the expression of thoughts, opinions, predictions, recommendations ana the general outlook of students from all over the country. This
will be called the College Forum. It is our hope that you will contribute
your views on such subjects as:
Does the apathy really exist ? If so, why?
What approach is your college taking towards politics, religion and
economics ?
Are such courses stimulating and controversial, or merely dry and
one sided ?
We expect these and many other interesting subj ects to appear. Mercury is willing to bet that if students are apathetic it's not entirely their
fault. Perhaps you can indicate to us on whose shoulders the responsibility doe*lie.
Address you letters ( typed please ) to: American Mercury, "College
Forum ", 250 West 57th Street, New York 19, N.Y.

College Council Resume'
2956-1957
To acquaint you with some of the more important questions with
which College Council has been faced this year, the Maroon and Gold
presents this synopsis of Council's actions regarding them.
REDEFINING DAY AND DORM STUDENTS. College Council recommended a change in the terminology "Day " and "Dorm " students to
"Resident" and "Commuting" students due to the large number of college students who live off campus because of inadequate dormitory
space.
COLLEGE COUNCIL BUDGET. The College Community was allocated
$47,825 to carry on its program of activities which include the athletic
and recreational events, cultural programs, music, publicity, organizations on campus and college service organizations as the newspaper,
yearbook publications.
PHI SIGMA PI PROGRAMS. Council approved the request of the men's
educational fraternity to hold a mock presidential election prior to the
national general election. Kenneth Smith and Donald MacLean were
chosen to speak for the Republican and Democratic candidates in a
regular assembly. A successfully j azz concert was also sponsored by this
organization in April.
COMMITTEE TO INV ESTIGATE KEEPING THE LOUNGE OPEN

DURING ASSEMBLY. Ray Hargreaves headed a committee to investigate the possibility of keeping the Husky Lounge open during the assembly hour. This move would have been made for the convenience of seniors who are unable, because of limited space , to attend assembly program. The Assembly Committee was consulted on this matter. However ,
the lounge was never opened because it was felt that underclassmen
would also frequent the lounge during the regular assembly time.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR CREDIT FOR WATER SAFETY COURSES.
Council suggested giving extra-curricular credit to students enrolled
in the water safety courses offered. This proposal, however, was reconsidered when it was found that outside credit is given by the American
Red Cross to those persons who successfully complete the requirements.

College Budget Is
One Million Dollars

The Teachers College not only
has a leading role in the cultural
life of the area but in Bloomsburg it is big business.

1,000 students and demands for

In addition to operation costs

program for BSTC.
There are now approximately
1,000 registered college students
and 200 children in the Benj amin
Franklin School. There is a full
time faculty of fifty-five and a
part time faculty of thirty-five.
Many of the latter are members
of the faculty in the Bloomsburg
public schools. There are seventyfive non-instructional employees.
At the present, 200 college students have rooms and get their
meals off the campus and it is
likely at least a hundred more will
have to obtain such faculties in
the community for the college year
opening next September. The institution serves 1,400 meals per
day in its dining hall.
The big question at the present
time is whether the fifty-seven
acre campu s is large enough for a
student body of 2,000.

From Harrisburg there appears
to be a definite trend toward the
development of teachers colleges
in the interior of the Commonwealth. Bloomsburg is certainly
one of those and has a half million population within a radius of
forty miles.
Considerable study is given at
the moment on the matter of providing graduate work at each
teachers college.
These are periods of change and
advancement and the Bloomsburg
Teachers College appears certain
to grow in the year ahead . Certainly from the facts now available , a student body twice the size
of the present one is not only a
possibility but a probability within
the next decade.

would eliminate the "five-tests-inone-day. I-haven't-a-chance" situation .
One student, gave these remarks:
"(1.) The tendency to cheat is
increased by pressure which is noticeable here. (2) Instead of studying, we study for tests. A greater
effort on the part of the instructor
to instill a love for subject matter instead of giving out masses of
work for memorization and placing emphasis on unimportant details should help. (3) Tests that
are easiest to score seem to be the

Sa$ another, "... cheating has
been pretty much restricted to the
courses which are required and
where the instructor makes no attempt to prevent It. It also occurs
in courses where the students believe the instructor does not mark
f airly, favoring certain individuals;
the other students cheat in selfdefense."
Several students commented on
the veteran 's attitude toward
cheating. One put it this way, "I
feel that the majority of cheaters
lies in the veterans here at school
... they are known to habitually
cheat. In one class they all move

to a clump in the back of the room
and exchange papers. Also, in
classes that receive the same test
of another section , the vets pass
the test along to their friends. It
always seems to be the ones who
don 't cheat that hit the bottom of
the curve, therefore making it a
temptation to cheat. It seems that
the only way to acquire a decent
grade in SOME of my classes, is
to cheat. I am very favorable towards this campaign and certainly
hope that it makes the cheaters
feel like the crumbs that they
are. "
Said others: "This college puts
too much stress on letter grades.
For example, a certain percentage
must get A's and certain percentage must get E's. They ( the college ) have the choice of high school
graduates to begin with and then
they still back the idea that a
certain percentage must fail. I
personally think cheating could be
redu ced by eliminating the ACE
Method of grading and the "curve".
Another student admitted , "I
am a basically honest person , but
in the past several weeks, I have
been forced to cheat in two of my
classes. I feel very guilty but I
stood a chance of losing my B's."
We've included those comments
which were representative of opinions given In question 10.
Of course we had some adverse
criticism, too. Four students declared that the questionnaire was
"lousy," "ridiculous," or that they
were tired of hearing statements

. . SPORTS HI-UTES ..
by JIM WAGNER

Turning back the clock to the earlier part of this spring, we found
Coach Wagner hopeful of retaining the State Teachers College Championship in baseball here on the local campus. The Warriors of East
Stroudsburg had other thoughts, however , and the Red and Black of
East Stroudsburg took advantage of our weak spots and turned them
into sweet victory for themselves.
After losing our first game at East Stroudsburg, the Wagnermen
looked very impressive in their wins over Colgate University and Lock
Haven, with Ed Wojiechowski pacing the pitching staff. Lady Luck
turned the tables, however, as East Stroudsburg rallied late in their
second game with the Huskies to knock us out of the running at the
time. A dim ray of light emerged when Kutztown knocked off East
Stroudsburg 14-12, but the icing was plastered on the cake at Kutztown
when the Golden Avalanche fell prey on the Huskies.
From the beginning, pitching was named as our big weakness, and
this proved to be the deciding blow that knocked us from the ranks
of the leaders. Our defense also weakened in several key games and
at several key points which enabled the opponents to take advantage
of our miscues and turn them into their advantage.
Hitting proved to be somewhat of an asset to the team in generai.
In the Scranton tilt, the Huskies clutch hitting enabled them to outslug
the Royals. Bob Boyle and Ken Hill, two southpaws, found the range
and connected for round circuits.
In rounding out his college career, Chuck Casper also found the hitting
range and connected on several occasions for the extra-base hit . Of
course, Shustack and Pandel have also hit the long ball during the
current campaign. Freshmen, Bobby Rohm and Juniors, John Oustrich
and Jonah Goobic also found the holes which enabled them to increase
their batting averages.
The defense in the outfield was superb; Casper probably turned in
one of the most spectacular catches when he grabbed a sure-fire extra
base hit off a Colgate batsman. However, on numerous occasions, the
infield lapsed. Errors proved costly in the Kutztown encounter which
actually led to the dethrowning of the Huskies f rom the ranks of the
leaders.
Pitching was not entirely a sore spot. Ed Wojciechowski pitched some
hrilliant games, and Bob Mescan and Paul Franklin also Ditched well
in spots.
The one big shining spot in Doc Wagner 's eyes must certainly be the
fact that with the exemption of Shustack and Casper, the entire sq uad
will return next year. That means the same pitching staff with the
added strength of one year of service, the same infield paced by Joe
Pendel . and Bob Boyle returning in the outfield and Jonah Goobic behind the plate for another year.
Turning to track, the picture remains about the same. Coach Shelly
can also anticipate a full squad of returnees as there are no Senior
members on the track squad. The thinclads picked up some promising
Freshmen who quickly came to their own: Nick Volpetti, jave lin; Stosh
Elin ski , pole vault; Ray Thayer, distance ; and Carl Sweet, discu s and
shot, j ust to mention a few.
Again, as in the case of baseball, the squad has gained another year
of valued service and experience. Only Charlie Loughery and Ed Watts
remain as three-year lettermen who have garnered most of the points
during the present season.

Saturday afternoon the softball

to a good start, but was rained
put half an hour later. After the
Amazing Amoebas triumphed in a
basketball game, the visitors adj ourned to the pool.
"Seasons of Swimming" was
jWell received. The water ballet of
ithe Merry Mermaids was introduced by "'Syncopated Clock", followed by "Over the Rainbow", in
which the coeds carried paper umbrellas while waiting for the rainjbow following the afternoon 's
shower, "Summertime", "Autumn
Leaves", a duet by Molly Mattern
and Judy Muir, and "Skater 's
Waltz". The fineale was swum in
an atmosphere for real winter. Dry
ice, which bubbled and steamed in
the water, caused a snow-like effect in the air. The water show,
which was directed by Mary Ann
Thornton, was preceded by a demonstration by Sally Smith of the
ten styles of swimming. Hors
doeuvres and punch were served
in the girls' gym following the performance.
Sunday afternoon following dinner in the College Commons, numerals, letters, and chevrons were
awarded to girls who accumulated
a required number of points during
the past year. Pins for outstanding work were presented to Enola
Van Aucken, Barbara Lentz, and
Marilyn Ritterr Offi cers for the
1957-1958 year were announced as
follows: Margaret Brinser, president; Judy Muir, vice-president;
Jane Ott, secretary ; and Jane
Martini , treasurer. The weekend
offi cially terminated with a closing
address by Kaki Crew, retiring
