Late checks nothing
new to veterans

by Will Dennis
for the Voice

When it comes to talking about
the government handing out
money, words like "prompt " or
"punctual" rarely come to mind.
That is certainly the case with student funds for Bloomsburg
University veterans; late checks,
missing money-and the prospect
of getting nothing at all.
The trouble lies in the way the
checks are processed under the
new G.I. bill. Ron Deihl , a
Vietnam-era veteran working with
veteran's affairs here at BU said ,
"What causes the problem is the
time of the month the application
is processed. After we get the application for funds filled out , we
send it to the VA board in
Philadelphia who processes it and
then sends it on to Kansas City
where the check is issued. The
system works in four cycles, with
each cycle being basically one
week long. The problem arises
when the application comes past
the second cycle-if it comes past
the 15th, you can count on the
check being at least two weeks
late."
Late checks are only a part of
the problem. Such is the government's zeal in preventing overpayments that , in the case of
scheduling changes, checks are
held up even longer and sometimes

not sent at all. "It 's VA policy that
if there is a change in the student 's
schedule," said Deihl , "the check
is held to prevent overpayment .
They seem to set such high
priorities on avoiding overpayment, and there 's often nothing we
can do."
There have been recent problems with checks not arriving,
Deihl said. "We have one such
case that we just worked through.
There is a student now who was a
full-time student with 13 credits,"
he said , "and the VA received
authorization to cut a check. Some
time after the authorization the student withdrew from a class, dropping hinm to 10 credits. The check
was stopped, and to this day he still
doesn't have a check. This particular case has been going on
since the 22nd of last December."
Deihl noted.
Although all this is a cause for
concern , Deihl said BU has an excellent rapport with veterans, and
the university understands the problems veterans have with getting
their money. No action is taken
against late payment in these cases,
he said , adding that , "It usuall y
isn't the student's fault-just the
timeliness of the situation." The
best way around late checks, he
said , is to notify the Veteran's Affairs office before the 15th of the
month when making an application for money.

Open hearings on governance
structure involve f aculty/students
Faculty hearing
by Patty Moyer
Staff Writer

Improving the flow of information and increasing faculty
representation were among the
concerns voiced by faculty at an
open hearing held Feb. 19, on the
proposed governance structure.
The faculty members present at
the hearing agreed the proposal
was a good basis for the new
governance structure, however,
more work would be needed to
assure equal representation and to
meet the needs of both faculty and
students.
Members of the Presidential
Committee and facutly agreed that
the flow of information, was important to keep all committees in the
structure updated on meetings,
issues and decisions about
academic and curriculum
concerns.
"We want a great deal of trust
and horizontal information flow,''
Howard Macauley, co-chair ,
explained .
Faculty representation on each
of the committees was another
issue. Maureen Endres (Librarian)
believes the structure is restrictive
of faculty representation .

Sp ring trip to Soviet Union
offe rs chance for interaction
by Lynne Ernst
Staff Writer

Bloomsburg Uni versity is offering a two-week, inexpensive tour
of Russia immediately following
the end of the spring semester. So,
when you have spring fever, don't
think Florida, think Russia.
The main goal of the tour is to
provide the opportunity for contact
between Bloomsburg students and
Soviet citizens and students.
Students can also earn credits
while traveling abroad.
The tour is 'unique in many
ways. Toooften , Soviet tours result
in American visitors having little
or no contact with Soviet citizens,
instead their time is spent with
other Americans. In an attempt to
avoid this, the tour has been arranged through Sputnik , a Soviet
aeencv which specializes in tours

for young adults.
The tour is also special because
of the price. The approximate cost
is $1,350, about $500 less than
usual because of student rates. The
cost includes a round trip transatlantic flight from New \brk to
the USSR, hotel accomodations,
three meals a day, sightseeing programs in cities and more. Students
can also take three credits in either
political science or interdisciplinary studies. However, the
price of tuition is not included in
the cost of the tour.
Students, will tour Leningrad,
Moscow Kiev and Odessa. The
historical spots that will be visited
include the Hermitage Museum,
Peter's Palace, the Battleship
Auora, the Kremlin, Lenin's tomb,
the GUM Department Store and
more.
" According to Professor Anthony

Sylvester, who has gone on
previous tours of the USSR with
BU students, the most important
thing is to make extensive use of
the public transportation system in
the USSR. It is in the subways, city buses, and trolleys where
students interact on a personal
level with Soviet citizens. Sylvester
said students often realize they
have a lot of misconceptions about
the Soviet people and the Soviet
Union. Sylvester commented that
the Soviets are "friendly and
outgoing people." When
Americans visit the USSR, they
find the Russians do not have
horns and Russians discover
Americans do not have horns."
A visa and passport are required
for the tour. No previous courses
in the Russian language are required. Enough people in the

tee because we are a department
that belongs to no college," she explained . "The reason I am acting
so strongly is because the library
obviously has a very sizeable
percentage of the budget ," she
added .
Faculty
member
Mark
Melnychuck would like a stronger
faculty voice as well. "If we don't
have 50 percent of the seats filled
with faculty, we won't be equally
represented ," he said .
Melnychuck also suggested revisions of the original plan by putting the Coordinating Council at
the middle of the model . "The
Coordinating Council is the prime
linking section of the model
because it is the information
center," he told the members.
Richard Aldefer (Communications) suggested more faculty
representation in the Planning/Budget Committee. Aldefer 's
idea is to have two people from
each college and an APSCUF
member - total of seven faculty instead of the proposed three. He
also suggested a need for community representation.
Co-chair Stewart Nagel explained that the suggestions for the revision of the first draft voiced at the
hearing and those submitted in
written form would be considered.
Among those considerations is
clarification of the term "faculty."
The formation of subcommittees
will be encouraged so they will be
able to focus on specific matters
such as community input , for
example.
' We re inventing a kind of
model that is neither participatory
entirely or representative entirely,"
Nagel explained.
He added that the model would
need more description to show exactly how the information will
flow. After reviewing all suggestions, the Presidential Committee
will meet again to revise the
structure.

Student Hearing

In an open hearing for students
concerned about the new governance structure , the CGA
presented its recommendations on
the first draft.
Sean Mullen, CGA president,
explained the suggestions drawn
up by the CGA:
Committee on Academic
Affairs:
Composition-Want to reinforce

our belief that the graduate and
undergraduate classes should be
represented by a student.
Committee on Student Life:
1. Increase the representation of
the Student Life Staff from three
members to six members.
2. Decrease the faculty membership from three to two members.
3. Decrease the student
membership from six to four
members.
Selection-of the student
representives would be made by
CGA and no specific criteria
would be used in their selection.
Committee on Planning and
Budget:
The APSCUF president should
not be considered a member and
rather the faculty elect among
themselves a representative.
Recommend increasing the student representation from one to
two members.
Selection-of the two students
would be made by the CGA.
If the committee does decide to
make the APSCUF president a
permanent member, the CGA

Another club
for BU students

Whatever your major, there is a
variety of clubs you may join to
enhance your particular concentration or within your special interest
area . Onl y one club, however, has
been specificall y organized soley
to help disabled students. This club
is called "Project Awareness."
Project Awareness is a group for
disabled students established to
deal with the physiological ,
psychological , educational and environmental difficulties faced by
the growing population of disabled students at BU. Members include those students who are interested in , or themselves have,
any type of disability.
Initiall y called the Disabled
Students Task Force SubCommittee, Project Awareness
was founded in 1981 by a special
student who personall y encountered many of the above difficulties. Since then , numerous
awareness programs have been
sponsored to bring attention to our
campus.
Some activities that Project
Awareness will be presenting this

semester are: a panel discussion on
"Marriage and the Mentall y
Retarded ," a panel discussion on
"How to Deal with a Terminally
111 Individual ," and a social visit
to a married couple 's home which
has been totall y designed to accomodate both their wheelchairs.
The main goal of Project
Awareness is to educate BU
students, faculty, staff , and interested others about the feelings,
needs, and rights of every exceptional individual and to focus not
on what their handicaps are, but
what they, as individuals, can
become with our help.
Show your support and willingness to learn and share with
others by joining Project
Awareness. We need to have
members from all disciplines and
programs.
Call any of the following
members if you are interested :
Corry Pannell , 3959; Chris Bandy, 784-6454; Harriet Johnson ,
784-5330; and April White, 3333.

It is Tuesday night and the term
paper that was assigned in the
beginning of the semester is due on
Friday. Two days to gather information , write the paper and then
type it. It can be done if the correct methods of research are used .
Many ofthe methods are available
at Andruss Library.
Most students are aware of the
features offered at the library but
never use them. "I'm aware of the
services but never had reason to
use them yet ," said one
sophomore, "but at least I know
what is offered if I ever need
them." There are many who are
not aware of the library 's services.
One student said , "I'm not aware
of the services. I never really had
any reason to use the library. " A
junior explained she tried to avoid
libraries and only used them when
absolutely necessary.

committee members. "We need to
have some type of provision which

Mentalist will

Repair of steam condensate
system set for summer

by Mara Gummoe

for the Voice

for the Voice

The Amazing Kreskin , mentalist
and practitioner of ESP (Extra
Sensory Perception), will soon be
appearing
at Bloomsburg
University.
The performance scheduled for
Feb. 24 at 8 p.m. will feature
several demonstrations of his mental abilities. By using the relaxation technique, Kreskin has subjects silentl y count numbers
backwards. The subject is then
able to endure situations that
would otherwise be uncomfortable
and potentiall y painful , like having your arms and legs elevated for
several minutes.
Another of his demonstrations is
something he calls the "check
test.''. A member of the audience
hides Kreskin 's performance fee
somewhere in the room. Kreskin
must find the check in ten minutes
or forfeit his payment. He offers
$20,000 to anyone who can show
he had an accomplice.
The author of three books,
Kreskin has had his own TV series
for five and a half years, has been
on the Mike Douglas Show Ul
times, the Johnny Carson Show 88
times and the Merv Griffin Show
73 times;
Kreskin will ' be appearing in
Mitrani Hall, Haas Auditorium for
this one performance only. Advance tickets are now available at
the Kehr Union Information Desk
and the Record s and Jeanswear
Store m Downtown Bloomsburg.
Admission is free with BU I.D.
and current Community Activities
sticker; $2 for all others. For further information call 389-4344 or
389-3900.
Due to the intense concentration
necessary for Kreskin to perform ,
small infants cannot be admitted in
the audience.

Dr. Robert Parrish , vicepresident of administration at BU
said , "We have a $1 million project designed and expect the fund s
to be released sometime this
month ."
The system carried water from
various places on campus to the
heating system to be filtered and
returned purified to heat buildings
on campus. Parrish said the pipes
are worn out and must be replaced because not replacing the
system could be dangerous. "If the
pipes were to erode and break, we
would have water leaks over the
whole campus. Then we would
have to put makeup water in the
system from other parts of campus.
This could also be dangerous if the
water isn 't purified ."

sources. "The university gets funding from two budgets," said Parrish , "a basic instructional
operating budget totaling $32
million and a major corrections
fund." The basic instructional
budget is set up through the system
of higher education and must be
approved by the governor. Approval for the major corrections
fund is a lengthy process as Parrish stated, "We requested funding
for this project in 1980, it was approved in fiscal 1981-82, and work
begins this summer."
A majority of the work will be
focused on the lower campus.
"We ' re concerned with the
distance from Carver Hall to Andruss Library," said Parrish.
Minor inconviences will result
as workers continue the project
but , Parrish said "We'll work
around academic schedules to ensure no long interruptions exist.
Most of the work will be done during the summer when a majority
of the students are on break due to
favorable weather conditions."

Misassignment of teachers, education's 'dirty little secret '
by Dr. G. Terry Madonna
APSCUF President

Al Shanker, the President of the
American Federation of Teachers,
calls it education 's "dirty little
secret. " Grahm Down of the National Council for Basic Education , says "it is not a pretty picture ." The two comments refer to
a recentl y released report entitled
"'Makin g Do in the Classroom: A
Report on the Misassignment of
Teachers."
The report 's conclusion can be
easil y stated: there are countless
thousands of teachers begin assigned to teach in academic areas in
which the teachers have little or no
relevant educational trainin g.
The abuse exists not onl y in
peri phera l subjects but is also
found in the basics-science, math ,
Eng lish and history.
The extent of the problem has
never been full y documented
because, though each state requires
the certification or licensing of its
teachers , most state delegate to
local school administrations the
power to assign teachers outside of
their areas of ex pertise or allow the
use of substitute teachers outside
of their f ield of academic

_ _
f

,

preparation.
Audits of local school district
practices by state officials are often
infrequent , and conduct by personnel outside the traditional education structure of the state.
The problem of teacher
misassignment came to light during a survey of all state education
departments to learn what regulations governed out-of-field
teaching and - what statistics had
been collected to show how many
teachers were working in fields in
which they have no academic
preparation. '
Based on the survey results , it
seems clear that the nation faces
a genuine educational scandal ,
although the number of teachers
with out-of-field assignments may
represent a small percentage of the
state 's teacher workforce.
In Utah , for example, 82.1 percent of earth science, 28.3 percent
of math , and 25.1 percent of
history classes were the chief
assignments of teacher who either
lacked a college major or minor in
the subject. In North Carolina ,
60.1 percent of the out-of-field
teachers were in reading, 37.3 percent in math , 30.4 percent in

science, and 22.5 percent in
English.
Like many of the states , Pennsy lvania was not sing led out for
any special mention statisticall y
because no one knows the extent
of the problem. On paper , the
state 's regulations seem iron-clad
enough. Teachers are not to be
assigned to teach in areas outside
of their certification. But emergencies arise.And there are staffing problems
that dictate some misassi gnment.
Everyone recognizes the need for
some leg itimate administrative
flexibility to meet emergencies, to
cover classes temporarily, and to
offe r some special classes. When
no properl y certified teacher is
available , an emergency certificate
is issued to a teacher "hav ing a
reasonable concentratio n of
colleg iate-level course work in the
area of the emergency request ."
That is the official position.
What state officials do not know
is exactly how much out-of-field
teaching is taking place under the
current emergency certification
procedures.

The Pennsylvania Departmen t of
Education does not separate outof-field teaching from other types
of emergency certificat es ,
especial l y those issued for
substitute teaching.
Further , state officials have no
accurate count of how many
teachers are teaching out-of-field
without emergency certificates.
Even thoug h there are fairl y
significa nt financial penalties
levied on school districts for violations of certification procedures, it
is usual y eight or nine years between regularl y scheduled certification audits for each school
districts.
Because the extent of the problem in Pennsylvania is obscured
by a paucity of reliable data , it 's
difficult to know exactly how much
harm is being done educationall y
to the students
of the
Commonwealth.
It is difficult to assess the
damage, but it is perhaps more
than we currentl y realize.
The use of inappropriatel y
assigned teachers, if extensive, has

profoundly negative effect on
educational quality. This practice
will hinder the real progress being
made in upgrading and reforming
the state's educational system. If
teacher misassignment is a serious
problem in the state, educational
officials should know about it.
And its practice should be more
closely regulated and curtailed.

In the Soviet Union

That not seen by accident
has been carefully planned
by Tom Miller

Editorial Columnist

"C.C.C.P." reads the top of the flyer advertising an opportunity
to study in Russia. Bloomsburg students have been invited to sign up
for a three-credit course in...what? "Totalitarian Political Systems?"
"Techniques of Repression in the 20th Century ?"
More than likely these students will be paying $1530 a head for
an updated Potempkin tour of the original workers ' paradise. The flyer
mentions a "Soviet guide " as one of the included items in this bargain
trip to the Motherland . I wouldn 't advise anyone on the trip to try going more than a couple of blocks without their "guide," provided no
c
doubt by the Ministry of Culture (Propoganda)
The students will be shown a jeweled egg here, a medical clinic
there ; see a ballet and a model collective farm. Did I say farm? Ask
the "guide " to see the graves of the peasants who were dumped out
of trains in Siberia with nothing but the clothes on their backs and told
to "start farming." Most died within days or weeks. Ask him how many
Ukranian farmers starved to death on the most productive land in the
world after their produce was confiscated for exports so Russia could
buy weaponry with which to enslave the other half of the world.
The students are scheduled to visit Leningrad , Moscow, Kiev and
Odessa; something no ordinary Soviet citizen can do without government permission. Soviet citizens must have an internal passport to travel
within the country. Imag ine having to get a visa to go to New Jersey.
Ask the guide how many Afghanis were poisoned by gas this week
or how many Afghan children were blinded or lost limbs by antipersonnel mines disguised as toys.
Any Bloomsburg student can sign up for this tour. Soviet students
visiting the United States must be government toadies to be permitted
to go abroad (otherwise they wouldn 't be trusted to return to their seven
million square mile prison) . Even they are debriefed for weeks upon
their return .
The Soviet bloc is one part of the developed world which doesn 't
have an illegal alien problem.
Apparently, U.S. students who return from Russia (probably none
will defect) are expected to be turned into full-grown Samatha Smiths
(may she rest in peace) . While it is unlikely that they will be turned
into cloying, nauseating Russian pawns to quite the degree of that poor
little girl , it has happened to very experienced and worldly people. Jimmy Carter actually kissed Leonid Breznev, a man personally responsible for the execution of thousands of his own people. Harry Truman
once said of Stalin, "I like old Joe" (imagine: "I like old Adolf").
Old Joe's tally of murders, while literally incalculable runs into eight
figures.
I wouldn't go so far as to advise students not to go. I. would probably go if offered a free seat (How long I would be permitted to stay
is another matter). But everyone who goes should realize the everything
they don 't see by accident has been carefull y prepared for them and
other foreign visitors.
I don 't know what exactly can be "studied" on such a trip. Two
weeks curled up with The Gulag Archipelago would be much more, instructive. Be it sufficient warning that everything seen and heard should
be taken with a grain of salt , whieh is one of the few commodities ordinary Russians can buy in their stores. •

Dear Editor,
What is the problem with the
students
of
Bloomsburg
University ?
In last week's Community
Government Association elections,
only 15 percent of the population
showed up to vote.
It seems funny to me that so
many people on campus were
upset when the CGA wanted to
have their own banquet , but when
it comes time for them to vote.
they don t.
It also upset me to see that people were complaining about Tim
Keffer and Don Chomiak . "It is
like going from the Reagan administration to the Carter administration ," they said. I didn 't
see them put their names on the
ballot to run for office, in any of
the positions.
Now that Keffer is going to be
the next president of the CGA, I
wish him the best of luck in that
position.
I have never held a student
government job, but I know from
talking to Sean Mullen and Jill
Lippencott that it is not only a difficult job , but a time consuming
one.
This leads me to another point.

Anybody who runs for this office
deserves a lot of credit. It takes a
lot of guts to run for a position
when you realize it is going to take
up so much of your time.
For the people who have complaints with the CGA, did you
vote? How about next year, when
you feel that things are not going
your way, ask yourself , did I vote?
I don 't think it is as much the
president 's fault when something
goes wrong as it is the senate 's
fault.
When the controversial banquet
vote was taken , Mullen didn 't even
have a vote. It was all the senate
members who voted for it and I
didn 't hear of any student going to
their student senator and complaining to them.
It may sound like I am rambl- '
ing off at the mouth , but I believe
the CGA has done a fine job in the
past and will continue to do a fine
job in the future.
As Tim Keff er said , it is not
necessarily the experience you
have before you go into the elections, because you learn as you go.

CAS supports a
balanced budget
but questions
how it is done
Dear Editor,
In Thursday 's Voice the statement "One half of all budget
deductions must come from
defense" is false.
Nearly one half of the entire
federal budget is allocated to
defense in some respect. Almost
the entire defense budget is completely exempt from the cuts proposed in Gramm-Rudman.
CAS supports the attempts to
balance the budget but questions
the means through which this is
being done.

"Boys with Toys" to bring
their music to BU
by Brid get Gasper
for the Voice

Boys with Toys and their
energetic sound will be coming to
Bloomsburg on Feb. 27, to rock the
Kehr Union .
Option Magazine , of Los
Angles, Ca., commented on Boys
with Toys saying, "Wow! This
music doesn't just glide off the
turntable...it leaps, crackling with
electricity along the way..."
The three young Iowa boys
formed their band in the spring of
1983. Their idea was to create a vesion of rock and roll similar to
what they grew up with . Now their
style, as quoted from the San Antonio Original is "...rock and roll
at some of its purest..."
The one responsible for putting
the drive into the group 's sound is

Pat "Barn-Bam " McGraw. Next in
line is drummer Tommy Meyer
who adds harmony and solid , fastpaced percussion to their music,
while standing up. He never sits
down while playing. The third
member is Brad Jones, the band's
main songwriter.
Hot Fud ge Records notes their
"spunk , spirit , and spontaneity,"
is in their songs which are written
about ralationships and personal
particulars .
The Program Board will be
hosting Boys with Toys and their
infectious sound . This is a great
time to escape and listen to a new
band on the rise.

Maya Angelou to speak at BU

World renowned author,educator,historian,dancer,producer,and
songwriter Maya Angelou has appeared on several college campuses several years. Angelou will be appearing at BU on Tuesday.

Tall, stately and handsome, carrying herself with the dignity
derived from centuries fo a proud
African herigage, Maya Angelou
is the epitome of beautiful serenity. But the serenity actually is just
a cloak for a sensitive, intelligent
and eloquent woman who speaks
lyrically with vigor, wit , fire and
perception .
With just a high school education , she had been a singer,
educator, dancer, author, historian,
lecturer, actress, producer, editor,
song writer and playwright. She
speaks six languages fluently.
Angelou was born in St.. Louis,
Missouri , but spent most of her
early childhood with her grandmother in Stamps, Arkansas. In
1940 Angelou and her family moved to San Fransico where she completed her schooling in 1945. She
discoverd that writing poetry
brought relief from the problems
of ordinary living . Determined to
carve out a stage career, Angelou
studied dance and drama at night
while working a variety of jobs.
In 1952 her career took a significant upturn. She received a
scholarship to study dance with
Pearl Primus in New York.
Angelou made her fi rst professional apperanace at . the Purple
Onion as a singer upon return to
San Fransico in 1954. She joined
the European touring company of
Porgyand Bess singing the role of
"Ruby " and was the lead dancer
in this production during 1954 and

1955. It was presented in 22 countries in Europe and Africa. Between times she taught modern
dance at the Rome Opera House
and conducted classes in modern
dance technique in the Habima
Theatre in Tel Aviv.
While living in "Africa , Angelou
became the associate editor of The
A rab Observer , the only English
news weekly in the Middle East.
She wrote freelance articles for
The Ghanaian Times and the
Ghanaian Broadcasting Corporation in Accra. Angelou became
and assistant administrator of the
School of Music and Drama in the
University of Ghana . She concluded her stay in Africa in 1966 as a
feature editor of The African
Review in Accra.
Random House has published
eight bestsellers by Angelou including: / Know Why The Caged
Bird Sings, Just Give Me a Cool
' ere i Diiie ',
Drink of Water F
Gather Together in My Name, Oh
Pray My Wings Are Gonna Fit Me
Well, Singin ' and Swingin ' and
Gettin ' Merry Like Christmas, And
Still I Rise, The Heartofa Woman,
and Shaker, Why Don 't You Sing.
Because of the overwhelming demand for these publications, all
have been reprinted in paperback.
Angelou has made over 150 TV
appearances on network and local
talk shows which include The
Tonight Show, The Today Show,
Merv Griffin , Mike Douglas, and
Kup 's Show. She was also the sub-

ject of an hour interview by Bill
Moyers on PBS.
Angelou was writer-producer
for the 20th Century Fox TV, for
whom her film , Sister, Sisters, was
her initial full-leng ht effort . Her
renown autobiographical accont of
her youth , / Know Why the Caged
Bird Sings, was aired on a two
hour TV special for CBS in April
1979. Other television accomplishments include the five
part miniseries for CBS, Three
Way Choice, for which Angelou
was author and executive producer.
She has hosted a study course
filmed in thirty half-hour
segments, Humanities Through the
Arts, produced at Golden State
University and syndicated
throughtout the country for PBS.
In 1977 Angelou received the
coveted Golden Eagle Award for
her documentary, Afro-American
in the Arts, for PBS.
Honors from institutes of higher
education have been heaped upon
Angelou , among then the Chubb
Fellowship from Yale, doctorates
i from Mills College, Lawrence
University, Columbia College
(Chicago), Occidental College,
Central State University and Smith
College, and she holds the
Reynolds Chair at Wake Forest
Universiy.
Angelou has had articles
published in countless national
publications. She was accorded
The iLadies Home Journal award,
"Woman of the Year in Communications," She has also been
voted Ladies Home Journal "Top
100 Most Influential Women."
Angelou's musical , And Still I
Rise, for which she is libretist ,
lyricist and composer, is due for
Broadway opening in the near
future.
Angelou served on Jimmy
Carter s Presidential Commission
for International Woman's Year
(1978-1979).
Angelou 's appearnaces on college campuses and before private
organizations are legendary. Her
wealth of information and abililty
to speak with authority on
countless subjects such as equal
rigths, the arts, politics, women's
role in business, culture's role in
society, make Angelou one of the
today 's
most
in-demand
personalities.
Angelou will appear at
Bloomsburg University on Feb. 25
at 8 p.m. in Carver Hall.

"Sweet Sa turday
Night" talent

(continued from page 6)
to the contributions of black music
and dance. From the beginings in
Africa to the breakdancing of today, Sweet Saturday Night was a
performance that was blessed with
talent , and one that left the audience with a new understanding .

Just little old me
Strutting down the street, it is
too bad the "Miami Vice" theme
is not playing in the backround .
Then again , I quess it just would
not work.
In an age where "super" people are as easy to find as changing
the channel , the real but regular
folk have become much les*s credible, less believalbe. No longer is
anyone willing to completely trust
the word of someone who is not
out saving at least a whole city, if
not the world. "You are too normal looking, to average not to be
up to something. " We have
become a race a skeptics about our
own kind .
Looking at the word average,
though , it is easy to see "why we
doubt. Finding an average is bring
ing positive and
negative aspects
to some middle
ground. If "normals " show
positive outward
qualities (attractiveness , per """
sonality, etc.), then there must be
something devious underneath .
Otherwise, these people would
have their own T.V. shows, or at
least the "Miame Vice" theme
playing in their background.
What makes it all the more difficult for the"regular people is that
their best qualities are commomplace on T.V.A pretty woman

f

on television, with the aid of makeup, camera angles, and lighting,
can appear perfect. All that is
missing is the scent of some perfume bought with a home mortage.
The most beautiful real woman is
somehow flawed, however slightly. It is this flaw that makes her
legitimate. Without it , she could be
a plastic doll , playing house with
Ken and Malibu Barbie.
The "Super-Friends" are used
on T.V. to help teach kids right
from wrong. Since they are the
good guys, saving the world at
least once a show, kids cannot help
lending them more credibility than
Dad , who has never leaped a tall
building in his life.
As I slip off my cape and button
a white shirt over the big "S" on
my chest, I resign myself to my
position in life. I put on my glasses
and return to being the mild mannered journalist everyone knows
and never completely believes.
Yeah, it would be nice to have the
"Miami Vice" theme playing in
the backround and be a true
authority. I quess I'll just have to
settle for the theme from that
movie , starring Christop her
Reeves, and dream about speedboats, five o'clock shadow, and
girls on the beach .
" Automatic' simply means that
you can 't repair it yourself. ''

Dcidre Kase, Carol Gurniak , and
Joan Wojtowicz. Their time was
