MinorityRecruitment

Waivers to Affect Desegregation

SSHE

First Yea r a Success

GARY WESSNER
News Editor
"As we move forward, it will be
important that campus talents are
interviewed with the State System
of Higher Education (SSHE) ,"
says Chancellor James J. McCormick.
This was one of the aspects
touched upon at the first University
Newspaper Press Conference held
last Wednesday in Harrisburg. The
majority of 14 state universities
were represented at the affair.
"We must work together and advance the system so we can be successful advocates," says McCormick. The system was created
by Act 188 of 1982 and established
on July 1, 1983.
McCormick thinks the first year
went beautifully due to the support
everyone gave him. "When this is
shown, we can go before the
legislature and show them that an
investment in our schools is also an
investment in Pennsyvlania, not
just another expenditure," states
McCormick.
They are trying to keep the
tuition fee low, but things which
may be going up are housing and
other aspects. "We want to provide
high quality education at the least

possible cost,"states McCormick.
He also gave his opinion on the
university newspaper and the work
they do. "They are the prime source of information for the students
because a large number of students
don't read local papers," says McCormick.
McCormick does not feel that the
university status has diminished
funding from the government, but
we have to be more aggressive to
get outside funds.
There was a task force developed
which came up with a "mission"
for SSHE to try and accompolish in
the future . This mission consisted
of eight points:
1) to strengthen the Commonwealth through its ongoing
commitment to excellence in
education at the lowest possible
cost to students.
•2) to provide undergraduate and
graduate instruction for students to
and beyond the master 's degree.
3) to provide upper division opportunities for students who obtain
the first two years of postsecondary education at other institutions.
4) to provide associate degree

The 14 state owned and appropriated universities are
working under a court order to increase their minority populations.
The order made March, 24, 1983
requires the universities to increase minority enrollment by 39.4
percent by 1988.
To help the universities in their
efforts, the Board of Governors of
the State System of Higher
Education (SSHE) began a
scholarship program that
authorizes each university
president to waive tuition for not
more than 1 percent of the university 's undergraduate students who
are enrolled full-time.
.;
According to Dr. Kalyan Ghosh,
BU associate vice president for
Academic Affairs , the waivers will
not be used only for minority
students but they will be used to try
to affect desegregation. Dr. Ghosh
is heading a committee at BU of
faculty and staff that will determine the criteria and guidelines for
the choice of waiver recipients.
Some of the stipulations involved
with the waivers are that all other
possible sources of financial aid including PHEAA, Pell and other
waivers must be exhausted first
before the waiver may beoffered.
Since all other sources of aid
must be tried before this waiver is
offered, it will not be used as a lure
in minority recruiting due to the
fact that the paperwork for the aid
is generally not in until after the
recruitment stage.
The waivers, in addition to being
used to affect desegregation, will
also be used for academics, leadership, and the performing arts.
Many of the problems resulting
from desegregation have already
been anticipated. Conrad Jones,
director of equal opportunity for
the Board of Governors has
already fielded questions from
students regarding racial tension
and racial incidents on campus,
different admission standards
being adopted due to the recruitment of minorities, and town-gown

relations to start the list.
Although these will be problems
for the minority student when attending some of the state universities, according to Jones, a black
himself, "Many of us have been
pioneers all our lives." He says
that a lot of minorities will want to
try going to a previously nonsegregated area. "What we are
trying to draw to the universities
now ," said Jones , "are
academically talented minority
students."
Jones feels that the goals set by
the court order are realistic ones.
"I am not satisfied with the
minority recruitment now," said
Jones. In 1981, 11 of the 14 universities were in compliance with
minority enrollment and since 1981
the figures have dropped to only
five universities in compliance.
Many other schools besides the 14
in the state system are currently
working on increasing minority
enrollment. "Penn State has
decided that there is something
called a black student that isn't an
athlete out there," said Jones Penn
State has implemented many full
scholarships for minority students
that enter into some of their different schools of study. Right now
they are the largest competitor for
minority students with the state
system.
Some of the 14 universities are
taking extra steps in helping the
minority student once they are at
the school. Kutztown University is
allowing all minority students to
live on campus due to the difficulty
for them to get housing off-campus.
The university system is working
against a court order to increase
minority enrollment by 1988 and
will be implementing new >
recruiting procedures at the school
level. How each university itself
handles the situation will be up to
the individual school.
Besides recruitment, the universities also have to be aware of the
need for retention of minority
students, and the hiring of black
faculty and staff.

EDITORIAL
I have to admit, when I saw the tuition waivers for minority students
due to a court order to increase minority enrollment, I was perturbed.
Even though I claim to be anti-racist, something inside of me said, "hey. I
wish I was a minority to take advantage of all the things offered to blacks
in order to appease the anti-racialgroups and fulfill quotas."
I then receivedan invitation to attend a pressconference in Harrisburg
with the State System of Higher Education and the Chancellor of the
systern. Dr. James McCormick.
I lookeda t theagenda whichwas sent to me in advance and noticed that
one of the topics to be covered was minority recruitmentand the tuition
waiver. I jumped at the chance to finally air my grievances.
I did some homework and looked into the past record of BU as far as
minoritieswent and I preparedsome ratherpointedquestions.
As the particular sessionbegan, I noticed that it was headed by a black
man, Conrad Jones. My nerve began to slip, but I realized that it didn't
matter the color of his skin. I was going to ask my questions.
Needlessto say. I was extremely skeptical about the waivers and the
recruitment of minorities just, 'for the sake of having enough to meet
requirements." I felt that the condidtions for blacks in BU as well as
other state universities was less than favorable for them and I wondered
why we should try to get more to enroll if all they would receive are
problems. From experience, I feel that the town of Bloomsburg is not
overly receptive to black students.
Well, not only has my attitude changed , but I can realize why it is important to have a student population that closely resembles the "real
0?orld. " I am from a very inter-mixed community at home and I didn't
realize how out of touch I had become in four years to dealing with the differences in people and lifestyles. This is something we will all have to do
in the future.
As it was pointed out to me, not only are there differences between
races but vast differences within races. A few years back , Penn State attempted to increase its black population and went and recruited 500 urban
black students. They already had a black middleclass suburban
enrollment of 200 or so students. At the end of the first semester, the 500
urban studen ts had withdrawn due to a racial conflict between classes.
• Both of these segments of minorities as well as different segments of
the white population should be represented in order for all students to
develop an understanding of humans in general.
I have learned alot about myself through overcoming my prejudice in
this case (I suppose we never fully overcome all prejudice). I am glad
that this conference was headed by such a brilliant man, Conrad Jones,
who knew every thought that could be anticipated and always spoke the
truth candidly without hiding behind any terminology.

Security Employee Responds
Dear Editor,
I'm writing in response to the letter about security printed in the October 10 issue.
I am a student employee at the
security office and am sick and
tired of students and faculty
blaming the security officers for
their mistakes. The officers are
only doing their job — ticketing
vehicles that are parked illegally.
Everyone is given a parkingpolicy
when they register their car. The
policy includes all the rules and
regulations that administration
sets up for the officers to enforce. If
people are too lazy to take the time
to read it, then they deserve a
ticket!
As for the parents of the student
who received a parking violation
while visiting their son—all they
have to do is read the ticket. -Atthe-

bottom of the ticket is a note that
says visitors should report to the
law enforcement office and proper
action will be taken. Can the law
enforcement office be blamed for
the ignorance of others?
I don't understand why people
are so hostile toward the
secretaries and eager to blame the
law enforcement office for
something that is obviously not
their fault. We are only doing our
job and enforcing the rules that the
administrative personnel in Waller
have established.
It's time the law enforcement office stopped being the campus
scapegoat. The blame should be
placed where it belongs—on the
faculty and students who can 't
seem to read and follow instructions.

Prayers and Support Needed
Dear Editor ,
A year ago this past August my
sister Sharon was told by doctors
that she had cancer of a lymph
gland in her chest. After weeks of
chemotherapy and surgery they
said she was cancer free. About six
months later it showed up once
again in her pancreas and two months later in her left lung. The doctors told us a month ago that the
only alternative she has is a bone
marrow transplant. The bone
marrow transplant will take place
in Seattle, Washington at the end of
November. The success rate is only
30 percent but it is our only chance.
The cost of the operation alone is in
excess of $500,000. After government subsidies and insurance, we
will have to pick up a remaining

$30-40 thousand. My fa ther is
deceased and my mother is
required to be.out of. work for the
three to six month duration of the
operation, so on top of medical bills
there are still five children at home
to support.
We started fund raising two
weeks ago and have collected approximately $6,000, a start but
there is still a long way to go. Any
contributions and prayers would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Sean C. Mullen
EDITOR'S NOTE : Donations will
be collected in the Community Activities office, third floor Kehr

Teaching French In A Second Language

NANCY CHAPMAN
Staff Writer
When he first arrived at Kennedy
International Airport, he didn't
have a dime for the phone. He
changed his money, then struggled
to translate the telephone instructions. He'd never encountered
a public telephone in Haiti. Six

months later, he found his first job .
In order to communicate, he had to
spell many words in English.
Teaching is now his job. Beginning this semester, Dr. Gilbert
Darbouze is Bloomsburg University's newest language professor.
. Darbouze attended high school
and college in New York City and

worked on his doctoral dissertation
in Paris. He taught at Lafayette
College, Easton, before coming to
B.U.
Darbouze left Port-au Prince,
Haiti's capital, in 1968 to join his
mother and brother who were in
the United States. They had located
jobs in New York before leaving
Haiti and were settled in the Bronx
when Darbouze arrived. Because
Darbouze didn't speak English, he
attended two year's of high school
in New York. Darbouze has returned to Haiti twice since his arrival.
Both visits were brief.
"Home for me is right here
where I am," says Darbouze.
Another part of Haiti is also nearby. Haitian migrant workers and
their camps are located in Columbia County.
"I know they're here," says Darbouze. "I have spoken with some of
them."
Darbouze spoke little English
when he first came to the U.S.
French and Creole (a mixture of
African languages, French ,
Spanish and small amounts of Portuguese and English) are the
languages, spoken in Haiti.. English
is used for - business and governmental purposes only.
"I had one year of English and
Spanish back home," says Darbouze, "but I really didn't speak it.
It's like any language student after
one year."
Originally, Darbouze considered
becoming an architect. While
studying architecture, he also wanted to tutor French at the City
University of New York, where he
later received his bachelors,
masters, and doctoral degrees.
The university required tutors to
have at least two language courses,
says Darbouze. "I took the courses
and that's where I fell in love with
French," he says. From there, he
earned graduate degrees in French
and Spanish.
Darbouze agrees that because he
had to learn English in order to live
in the U.S., he's more understanding toward the problems
his language students encounter.
While he was learning English ,
he believed "the language itself "
was the problem. -Now that he's
teaching, he thinks it's important
for the professors to remember
when they were first learning.
"Any language teacher should
feel that way in order to understand their students. I still have
problems today with my pronunciation," Darbouze admits.
Although Darbouze has problems
with his English, he doesn't seem to
have problems fitting into the ac-

tivities here at Bloomsburg.
Theater, dancing, music and woodworking are among Dar,bouzes'
hobbies.
At the start of this semester , Darbouze joined the Bloomsburg
Players. His job, he says shyly, is
to "help them to nail boards on the
set."
Board nailing isn't the part of
theatre that Darbouze prefers. If
he had his choice, he'd be acting.
"Acting is one of my childhood
fantasies," says Darbouze. "The
problem is competing for a part
with people who can read English
faster and more naturally than I
can."
Aside from acting, Darbouze also
enjoys music. He attempted to play
violin, but abandoned the instrument at age 17. Now he is
teaching himself to play piano.
Singing is another of Darbouze's
musical favorites. But, he says
with a grin, "I have an awful
voice." He quickly clarifies himself
by adding that it isn't that his voice
is bad, it's that he "can't carry a
tune."
Woodworking is i another of Darbouze's hobbies. He proudly tells
about his set of bookshelves and an
entertainment center that he
recently built.
"It's like in college when you've
finished a big paper ," he says,
"you look at it and think , 'I really
did that.'"
This semester Darbouze is the
French Club advisor . He says the
club has planned movies, dinner
and a trip to New York City so far.
Darbouze believes the club members this semester are"very enterprising."

Even though B.U: is a
predominately white school , Darbouze doesn't feel that being black
has been a problem for him.
"So far , everything seems to be
okay. I don 't know in the future if
that will change or not."
"My ultimate goal in life is to be
happy," says Darbouze as he
leaned back in his chair and
smiled. As he talked, he appeared
content not only living in the States,
but here in Bloomsburg as well.

"Masterplayers " Well Received

THERESA MATKOSKY
Voice Contributor
Carver Hall provided the setting
for the impeccable performance of
the European chamber orchestra
"The Masterplayers." The concert, which took place Tuesday, October 9 at 8 p.m. before a small but
extremely receptive audience, was
conducted by the world-reknowned
maestro Richard Schumaker,
whose stirring and forceful had
directed the players through six
pieces by such composers as Bach,
Handel, Vivaldi, and Telemann.
The concert, sponsored by the
Community Arts Council, presented a unique opporunity to members of the Bloomsburg University
community — the chance to experience a prestigious and talented
group of musicians assembled under the direction of an energetic
virtuso.
The masterplayers, developed by
Schumaker in 1954, is composed of
40 chamber music players from all
over Europe. The group is currently touring with 17 musicians.
The tour, which covers seven
weeks and 13,000 miles, by bus, will
take the Masterplayers through the
United States and Canada, visiting
such states as Pennsylvania^ , New

York, Florida, and Texas. This is
their fifth tour of the United States.
Schumaker is indeed a master of
his craft. He started his career as a
bassoonist in an orchestra. His
strong desire to conduct has led
him to the prominent position of
directing leading orchestras in
major cities including Amsterdam,
Budapest, New York, Milan, and
Paris, to name a few. Following
this tour, Schumaker will go to
Poland to conduct the Warsaw
Philharmonic.
With his distinct European accent, Maestro Schumaker is jovial
and easygoing—a model of culture
and charm. He enjoyed the parts of
Bloomsburg that he and the
Masterplayers saw. "This is a very
nice hall and a nice public," he
said. "I like the town...very small
and charming."
Ted Shanoski, Director of
Cultural Affairs at BUP, is responsible for bringing the Masterplayers to Bloomsburg. He was
pleased and impressed with the orchestra. "From the reactions of the
audience, the people felt the
Masterplayers were excellent," he
commented. "It was probably the
best chamber orchestra we've had
in the seriesin a long time.,The.solo

IBM Representative Speaks to Students
HEATHER CLEAVER
Staff Writer
A marketing representative from
International Business Machines
Corporation addressed university
students about, "The Marketing
Strategy of the IBM Personal Computer ," in Kehr Union last
Tuesday.
The BU chapter of the American
Marketing Association sponsored
Robert Patterson who spoke to approximately 80 people.
"The goal of my presentation is
to promote the marketing
strategies within IBM, and to
enhance the image of IBM so that
college students are more aware of
the company and the opportunities
we offer ," Patterson said in an interview.
Patterson is employed under the
national accounts division of IBM's
marketing and service branch in
Bethlehem, Pa. He was a 1981
graduate of Lehigh University,
majoring in finance. .
According to Patterson, "IBM is
the largest system information
manufacturer; my division services 2,400 of the largest corporations in the United States.''
During his speech he explained
his. responsibilities as a marketing
representative, one of which is to
"build and maintain credible

relationships with customers."
Patterson also discussed the
m a r k e t i n g objectives and
strategies of IBM. The company's
primary is large corpora tions
using centralized data processing
resources. In this area, IBM is the
"main frame market leader with
sophisticated networking
capabilities including advanced
storage systems," he said.
In reference to his topic, Patterson said, "Apple, a microcomputer manufacturer, is one of our
top competitors" in the personal
computer market.
A student asked Patterson if
AT&T's entrance into the personal
computer market would effect
IBM. He responded, "AT&T is a
leader in telecommunications, but
their entrance into the market will
not effect IBM' s marketing
strategies."
He added that IBM is expanding
their market areas for their personal computer. For example, an
IBM PC computer is now available
at Sears.
Patterson also discussed employment opportunities at IBM.
"IBM supports higher level
education and has a large demand
for college graduates...IBM's total
revfinue for 1983 was $39 billion,
representing a growth rate of 23

percent over the year before," he
said.
He stressed that the company is
looking for students who get involved with college activities and
have an aptitude to comunicate
with people.
Patterson also spoke about personal selling technique. "Be
aggressive...the more you stick
your face in the door, the more
likely you are to get the job," he
concluded.
The American Marketing
Association
presents
three
speakers every semester. In September, the organization presented
Robert Xides, the state manager of
Jack Daniels. The presentation included prizes and a taste test of
their product at Hess's in Bloomsburg.
Jim Hughes, president of AMA ,
said "The organization is planning
to sponsor an advertising speaker
in November , and a representative
from AT&T next semester.''
Hughes , a senior marketing
majoy, said, "Over 130 BU students
are members of the AMA. The
national total for AMA members is
about 45 thousand, which includes
both the professional and student
chapters."
Members pay yearly dues to
become affiliated with the national

chapter and receive "Marketing
News , " an AMA national
publication. Hughes said , "The
newsletter contains viable, up to
date information on marketing ,
networking, and job opportunites."

Jogging aids
Campus Digest News Service

Two unusual companions, rock '
music and walking, have been suggested as jogging aids in separate
studies.
According to an article in a recent
"Journal of the American Medical
Association ," fitness buffs should
walk for several minutes following
strenuous exercise as a cooling down
measure.
Researchers say that men who exercised hard and suddenly stopped
showed irregular heartbeats triggered
by a higher hormone level. Dizziness
and woozy feelings were lessened by
cooling off periods, as well. It is
believed that women are affected
similarly, although only men were
tested in the study.
In an Iowa State survey involving
10 experienced joggers , blood
samples showed lower levels of the
body 's natural painkiller, endorphin ,
when joggers listened to rock music
while running. Less of the chemical
seemed to be needed as the music apparently helped block out pain and
discomfort.

thrashing of host Kutztown.
Justine Landis, the Huskies top seeded player has not lost since her
second match of the season to Franklin and Marshall. Tuesday afternoon
.was no exception. She dropped just one game to Cindy Rutt on her way to
taking the match in straight sets. 6-0, 6-1.
Landis's teammate and doubles partner Kathy Masch went the full
stretch of three sets, but did not give up the match, by defeating Beth Keffer , 6-3, 3-6, 6-2. Masch who just had her winning streak broken in her
match against Shippensburg boasts a 7-1 log this season , her best record
ever as a Husky.
Freshman Cortlee Gerhart dropped one game on her way to a 6-0, 6-1
trouncing of Laura Harakel. Marilou Doneker, playing the fourth spot for
the Huskies, handed Celia Reber a 6-1, 6-2 defeat.
Heidi Woods forced sophomore Karen Ambielli to a tie-breaker in the
second set before losing to her 6-2, 7-6. Beth Reighter found it necessary to
go the full three sets with Michelle Leiby. The sophomore lost the first set
7-5 before coming back to take the last two sets 6-4, 6-3.
With a sweep of the singles matches the Huskies had assured themselves the win. The doubles matches went much the same way as the

After Jeff Flickner ran for no gain,
fullback Calvin Robinson bulled his
way to the one yard line. The
sophomore then scored his fifth
touchdown of the year on the third
down arid one play. Todd Sullivan's
extra point was good and the
Huskies had their 15-14 lead.
After Stonewall's game-winning
touchdown, the Huskies had two
more chances to try to score. The
Millersville defense, however ,

!

forced four incomplete passes and
made one sack and Bloomsburg was
forced to punt both times. For the
day, the Marauder defense recorded
four quarterback sacks.
BU head coach George Landis
found his team's problem mainly on
the line of scrimmage.
"We didn't play as well as we can
on either side of the line of scrimmage," Landis said: "Millersville
controlled our running game and
really put the offensive pressure on
our passing game. Their line was
just more physical than ours; that's
as simple as I can put it."
The loss snaps Bloomsburg's four
game winning streak, and moves the
Huskies' record to 4-2 overall and 3-1
in the PC East. Millersville moves to
3-2-1 and 2-0-1.
Bloomsburg will now return to
Redman Stadium for next
weekend's clash with the Vulcans of
California, a western division team.

Marauders End Huskies Streak at 4
Win 22-15

TROY SELLERS
The top defense in the Pennsylvania Conference flexed its
muscles and stopped Blooriisburg
when it had to Saturday, to lead the
Millersville Marauders to a 22-15
Homecoming victory over the
Huskies
at
Millersville 's
Biemesderfer Stadium.
Going into the game, the
Marauders led the league by giving
up 215.6 yards per game. On
Saturday, the defense, led by
defensive tackle Chris Hangen and
nose guard Bill Colby, made BU's
running game essentially nonexistent and put constant pressure
on the Bloomsburg quarterbacks.
On the day the Huskies were held to
189 total yards, with only 35 coming
on the ground.
Meanwhile, Millersville 's recordsetting tailback, Rick Stonewall,
was busy rushing for 140 yards and
the game-winning touchdown.
Stonewall scored on an eight yard
ran with 6:40 to play in the game to
bring Millersville from a 15-14
deficit.
Millersville s winning drive began
when a roughing the passer penalty
moved the Marauders from their
own 14 to the 29. After Stonewall
gained two, quarterback Gregg
Caplan hit tight end Tim Kleinfelter
for 22 yards and a first down on the
BU 47.
Stonewall then carried the ball
three of the next four plays for 29
yards and the touchdown. Millersville scored on a two-point con-

version attempt with Caplan hitting
Mike Robinson for the final score.
The Marauders had opened the
scoring on the first play of the
second quarter , as Caplan hit
Anthony Smith for a 27 yard touchdown pass. The Marauders used
eight plays to go 74 yards on the
drive, and were aided once again by
a penalty. This time on a roughing
the kicker call on a fourth down and
six.
The Marauders stretched their
lead to 14-0 with 20:37left in the half ,
as running back Mike Udovich
scored from the 1.That score was the result of
another long drive, as Millersville
used 4:55 to travel 89 yards on 10
plays.
Bloomsburg got back in the game
just before halftime, as quarterback
Jay, Dedea (7 of 17, 134 yards) hit
split end Joe Dowd on a 68 yard
scoring toss. Dowd (3 receptions, 101
yards ) made a brilliant, turn-around
catch at the MU 30, and raced into
the end zone untouched. Bloomsburg's try for the point after failed ,
and the scoreboard read 14-6
Millersville at the half.
Bloomsburg got on the board first
in the second half , as Jim Tyson
tackled Caplan in his own end zone
for a safety.
Bloomsburg had driven to the MU
1 yard line, but a fourth down pass
from Dedea to Kevin Grande fell
incomplete as Grande slipped in the
end zone. Tyson, however, made the

Huskies Keep Rolling
Edge Bucknell 3-2

SARAH HACKFORTH
Sports Editor
Continuing their winning ways, the field hockey team racked up their
19th straight win Tuesday afternoon with a 3-2 victory over visiting
Bucknell.
The Huskies were forced to play a catch up game throughout the first
half and most of the second with Buckneli's Michelle Manoff scoring first
to give the Bison's a 1-0 edge.
BU, though dominating the statistics with a 30-19 advantage in shots
and 15-8 edge in penalty corners, was unable to score in the first half.
With the Huskies trailing 1-0 at the half Diane Shields scored twice in
the second half to help lift the Huskies over the Bisons. Shields evened the
score at 1-1 to put the Huskies back into the game. Before BU could follow
up Shields goal with another , the Bison's Jennifer Lossma answered with
a Bucknell goal to put the Bisons back in the lead , 2-1.
Lori Guitson, the Huskies goalkeeper, was forced to make six saves
during the course of the afternoon while Buckneli's netminder , Cindy
Barbosa had 14. The Husky defense allowed Bucknell to follow up on a
number of shots when Guitson was unable to clear them.
In the middle of the second half , Kate Denneny powered the ball
through Barbosa 's pads to even the score at 2-2. Denneny is now the
second leading scorer for the Huskies this season with four goals.
Shields scored for the second time in the game with just under five
minutes left to play. The goal, her ninth of the season , gave the Huskies
the go ahead mark to lift them over the Bison's in a game that went right
down to the wire. The goal at 30:40 gave the Huskies their 8th win of the
season.
With just two games left, the Huskies are looking to clinch the best
possible seed for the post-season tournament. In order to accomplish this ,
they must win their remaining games. Tomorrow they travel to New
York to play Ithaca College. Thursday the Huskies will play their last
scheduled home match against Mansfield. The PSAC Championships are
