Newspaper Association Member Volume 74, Issue 07 HE BEACON Vaccine booster shot "clinic held at Wilkes University By Genny Frederick News Editor The City of Wilkes-Barre held a clinic to provide qualified residents an opportunity to receive the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine booster. The clinic was held in the McHale Athletic Center on Oct. 28 and members of the community, as well as members of the university, took advantage of the event. The clinic comes after the Food and Drug Administration approved boosters for both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines. Boosters can be administered six months after the original vaccine except in the case of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, in which boosters can be administered after two months. According to the FDA, people 65 years of age and older, 18 through 64 years of age at high risk of severe COVID-19 and 18 through 64 years of age with frequent institutional or occupational exposure to SARS-CoV-2 are eligible to receive the vaccine. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also gives similar guidelines, but adds that anyone 18 and older who lives in long-term care settings or who have underlying medical conditions are recommended to receive the vaccine. Because COVID-19 can be transmitted quickly across college campuses, students at Wilkes are able to receive the vaccine. Some students took advantage of the booster as soon as it was available. The Beacon/ Genny Frederick Chris Sickle, sophomore political science major, was at the clinic and eager to receive the booster. "I got an email from the school saying that they were doing the booster and the closest day was today;' said Sickle. "I want to get my booster now because I'm eligible for it now:' The most recent reports from the CDC state that 192.0 million Americans have been fully vaccinated, and 16. 7 million people have received the booster. Dr. Kendall Tucker, assistant professor of pharmacy practice, advised students who are considering the vaccine. "Boosters are not currently recommended for the general public who do not meet certain criteria as laid out by the CDC:' said Tucker. "Wilkes students should only consider getting a booster shot if they are eligible based on the Centers for Disease Control criteria which are available on the CDC.gov website:• While guidelines are still in place to receive the booster, other approvals can make it more convenient to receive the BOOSTER, page 3 l\l~u·yel Studios· new mm-ie 'Tkrnab" l"oming to tlwakrs soon, pag<' 9 r �_J The Beacon - November 3, 2021 News 2 TheB News Have a breaking story or a press release to send?

The 'mix and match' approach allows boosters from either Moderna or Pfizer, regardless of the original vaccine received. "The allowance of mixed vaccine boosters will certainly have an impact on the amount of people who receive boosters;' said Tucker. "It makes boosters available to previously high-risk populations that may not have been eligible based on the type of vaccine they received, while also bypassing some vaccine supply limitations:' While the ability to receive boosters is a step toward the ending of the pandemic, the CDC and other groups are primarily focused on ensuring that a high percentage of the population has been fully vaccinated. With new approvals of vaccines for children and teens in effect, this goal is even more possible. While there may be concern about administering vaccines to children, Tucker explained the safety of the vaccines. "The COVID-19 vaccines were tested in clinical trials to ensure that they meet certain safety standards including prior to emergency use authorization for children; said Tucker. ''Additionally, millions of doses of vaccines have been given nationally and are subject to long-term safety monitoring. In terms of vaccination, these new vaccines have much more safety data available to them at this point in the process compared to historical vaccines:' The focus on vaccinating a high percentage of the population is also a goal at Wilkes. Currently, 85.9 percent of individuals on campus have been fully vaccinated. The clinics being held on campus assist the overall mission of the University to keep everyone healthy in light of the pandemic. Community member John Mellon came to the clinic when he heard about it from his wife. 'Tm just thankful that they're here for myself and for society:' said Mellon. "I do have the booster and I'm trying to do my part for society:' Students can sign up to receive a booster shot on either Monday, Nov. 8 or Friday, Nov. 12. Appointments are required. 3 The Beacon/ Genny Frederick John Mellon gets directions from Susan Kennedy at the booster shot cllnlc. Barron's in Education hosts career fair for Wilkes students By Jake Maskulyak Staff Writer Students recently had the opportunity to participate virtually in the Barron's in Education Career Fair. Attending students had the opportunity to pick and choose different conferences and meetings over the course of the two days, with several varying topics available to choose from. Barron's in Education is set up to provide quality experiences for students, specifically by introducing students to real-world business information and analysis that can help prepare them for the professional business atmosphere. The program gives students the opportunity to meet with high-level professionals in the field across Barron's community, further preparing them for the real world of business. Senior accounting and corporate finance major Jessica Smith was happy about the event. The sessions that interested her included "The Importance of Networking & How to Do it Right;' courtesy of Mary Hirthler, Wealth Advisor at Jacobi Capital Management and the panel "Women in Finance:' "Career fairs like that hosted by Barron's are a one-of-a-kind resource given to students who are looking for career opportunities and advice;' said Smith. "I am so glad that Barrons was able to host this year's first Virtual Career Fair as their sponsoring firms provide incredible perspectives into the finance industry for business students, but also for any individual interested to learn more:' In the section on "Diversity in the Workplace;' students were able to hear about changes coming in the industry in terms of equality and diversity. Speakers in this section talked about what their companies were doing to try and reach underrepresented and minority groups as well as how to better prepare all potential candidates in the business world for the ever-changing climate. Junior corporate finance major Nick Kinzler was sure to add that the Barron's career air was open to all students from all majors. "The Career Fair was open to anyone, no matter what major they were or what topics they were interested in, but the firms that hosted informational sessions were related to the business field:' Financial topics are not an uncommon conversation among college students, and the notion that all students could participate and gain valuable education from this event was something very important to Kinzler. Students are still adjusting to newer online types of career fairs like this one put on by Barron's. Career fairs like this, however, are what Dean of the Sidhu School ofBusiness and professor Dr. Abel Adekola says are preparing students for newer opportunities like this in the real world. "In general, the drawback is that if students are not well prepared for this new type of virtual recruitment, it could be challenging;' said Adekola. "The good thing, however, is that our Sidhu School students are well prepared to face such challenges as a result of the series of four courses they take from our personal and professional development (PPD) program, which are actually designed to get them ready for such challenges in the job market': The contents of the career fair provided students with real insight into what is going on in the field.

Jakobe.Maskulyak@wilkes.edu Graphic by Jack Malatesta r �_J The Beacon - November 3, 2021 News 4 The Study Buddy tutoring program helps local elementary students By Genny Frederick News Editor Members of the Wilkes University Reading Buddies Program. in partnership with the Civic Engagement Office, have spent this semester organizing and planning to help increase literacy in area children. Monica Morrison, a 2020 Wilkes graduate in psychology, is the AmeriCorps VISTA Coordinator of the Wilkes Reading Buddies Program. Each VISTA participant does one year of service to help toward eradicating poverty. While also attending Misericordia University to get a master's degree in occupational therapy, Morrison has spent the semester planning, organizing and launching the Reading Buddies Program. "We want to decrease poverty by increasing literacy one child at a time;' said Morrison. AmeriCorps VISTA is a federally funded program meant to fight the challenges in the United States through service and v9lunteering. It was established in 1993 by the Clinton Administration. Morrison cited FutureReady, PA Index from 2018 which said 80.2 percent of students in the Wilkes-Barre area are economically disadvantaged. Along with this, Morrison also noted that the Literacy Project from 2019 reports that one in four children grow up without learning how to read. For Wilkes students, helping the community comes in 30 minute sessions. College tutors meet with students in first through fourth grades in one-to-one group tutoring sessions for 30 minutes at a time. "Each session is what each college student tutor makes of it;' said Morrison. "The sessions typically last for 30 minutes and begin with some type of mindfulness or movement based activity for about 10 to 15 minutes and ends with various educational hands-on activities and reading games to get children moving and to keep the session fun and engaging. We have a lot of fun each week, and we try to keep tutoring fun with games like Beach Ball Tosses, Red Light Green Light Reading and Go Fish card games:• Billy Costner, senior management major, goes to sessions often. "During the sessions we usually will talk to the kids and ask how their day is going, help them with their homework, and if we finish their homework we will do reading and math activities with them to get them more confident and comfortable doing their work on their own;' said Costner. This is not the first semester the program has been active. Morrison continued the project that was begun by the previous AmeriCorps VISTA. It was when this VISTA talked to Morrison's CAR 398 class that she was interested in continuing it. "I wanted to continue this literacy project established by the previous VISTA to help mend an issue I was passionate about;' said Morrison. "It seemed like a perfect opportunity to contribute time and service to an existing need within the local community while simultaneously ga1mng leadership experience and professional development." Sara Urena, first-year psychology major, was interested in joining the program to help students. "My passion for teaching others and helping students thrive and become a better version of themselves;' said Urena. Costner explained that helping students with homework is something important to him. "Growing up, I would often need extra help with homework and school and I know how much a role model can truly help with your academics and work ethic as you get older:' The program also helped Morrison gain more experience for her career. "The VISTA program is an incredible opportunity for recent college graduates looking to gain real-life experiences, transitioning to graduate school or still figuring out what they would like to do in the future;' said Morrison. "For myself, this program has been an amazing experience to gain experience working with and tutoring children while earning my master's degree in occupational therapy, hoping to continue working with children as an OT.' While Morrison enjoys working for the program, she acknowledges that sometimes there are challenges. Changing plans, communication mishaps, slow feedback and COVID can all be causes for stress, but she and the other tutors handle them well, explaining, "We know we are working for a good cause so when a setback occurs, we keep our eyes focused forward and move onto the next thing:' Urena thinks the program is off to a good start. "The kids are very sweet and respectful;' said Urena. "I feel like we have a pretty nice plan for the sessions and have an organized environment to work with the kids. While students across campus have volunteered for the program, Morrison thinks there are some things other students may not know. "I think people should know that in general, Reading Buddies is a very rewarding experience," said Morrison. "The children benefit immensely from spending time with successful college students who want to be there for them:' Any student who wants to volunteer time for the Reading Buddies program should reach out to Monica Morrison or check their Instagram page @wureadingbuddies. According to Morrison, the time spent in the program is not only teaching. "Our tutors are not only helping children academically, but socially and emotionally as well;' said Morrison. "The children really look up to the tutors and the simple act of being present for the children each week has a significant impact on these children:• @wilkesbeacon Genevieve.Frederick@wilkes.edu Photos Courtesy of Monica Morrison Students grab food at an Informational meeting to get Involved with the Reading Buddies program.

Barre Scholars was created last year with the goal of identifying highperforming students and providing them with more opportunities and avenues. As part of these extra opportunities, the program has created a lecture/Q&A series in which professors are invited to speak on their journey to becoming researchers and professors. Led by Dr. Jonathan Kuiken, associate professor of history and honors director, Newell was prompted to begin by explaining her personal interests and subfields of study. "My overall research interests are about prejudice and discrimination on one side, and stress on the other side," said Newell. "What I'm really interested in is if you are a target of discrimination, how do you handle that? Are there good coping skills that you have? Bad coping skills? I do this The Beacon/ Maddy Kinard with cardiovascular reactivity." Dr. Jonathan Kulken talks with Dr. Ellen Newell on her time as an undergraduate and graduate student.

Contact life. arts & entertainment editor: Jordan.Daniel@wilkes.edu Sordoni Art Gallery opens doors to newest exhibition By AJ Rubino Staff Writer The Sordoni Art Gallery opened its new exhibit "Juan Logan: Creating & Collecting" on Nov. 2. The exhibition originated at the Hickory Museum of Art and is a memorial of Dr. Roy E. Morgan. The exhibition is free to the public and runs until March 13. The exhibition will close on Dec. 17 and reopen on Jan. 18 because of the semester's winter break. "We are trying something new:' said outreach coordinator Karley Stasko. "In the past, we used that time to shift over, but it created a problem mid-semester for setup and break down:' This gives plenty of time for students and faculty to visit the exhibition as well and be able to appreciate it. Director of the Sordoni Art Gallery, Heather Sincavage, looked into Juan Logan, the main artist of the exhibition, in 2018 for a different exhibition. Sincavage contacted Logan to showcase his other works. At the new exhibition, the works she could not get at the 2018 exhibition will be present at this one. "The original showing of these items were the Hickory Museum and we had the opportunity to bring it here;' said senior digital media and design arts major Alyssa Roberts. The exhibition showcases mixed media, which is a visual art. Artwork that is mixed media is when more than one thing or materials are represented. Examples include assemblages, collages and sculptures. Logan's works communicate the interconnections of race, place and power. The American experience can be abstractly or representationally described in his works. These works shine light on how social stereotypes shape people individually. The mental and material landscapes of contemporary life are also visible in his works. "He has done a whole series on just the motif shape:' said Stasko. "He even has done films that are viewed through that sort oflens. It is a combination of his own facial shape but also calling to mind the negative stereotyping historically and today.'' The exhibition also conveys other artworks that Logan has collected since the 1970s. Logan has created a collection of works from his friends and influences to his own work. The exhibition will share the dialogues of Logan's own work with this collection. Some influences are Jasper Johns, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Motherwell and Thornton Dial. "In comparison to the other exhibitions, these works are bigger;' said Roberts. "The L'Esprit show had smaller pieces and now these works are multiple feet long. The gallery space feels fuller. I think it is really cool:' One of the pieces that are being shown is Logan's painting, "Help Me, Save Me, Love Me:' The painting is in regards to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. "The interesting thing about that for the most part was they wanted someone to help them, to save them, as though they actually loved them and took care of them;' said Logan. Logan explained that these images from help efforts pertaining to Hurricane Katrina did not represent what really went on. The painting uses puzzle pieces that replicate a stand-in for the masses queuing for safety. The work itself represents Katrina as a larger puzzle that had been taken apart and not able to be put back together. 'i\ lot of these pieces that one made a lot of the texture from are coming from found objects:' said Stasko. The art piece, "I'll Save You Tomorrow,' is a great example of found objects. The piece shows found receipts and tickets that are embedded in the artwork. "It is really bringing these found objects together and transforming it into something artistic as opposed to just junk;' said Stasko. The artwork references the horrors caused by the inaction of various groups after Hurricane Katrina. The Red Cross is referenced in the pieces, depicted by a veiled cross. The veiled cross shows that the safe haven they represent is masked and made less immediately accessible, hence everyone waiting outside is referred to in other pieces. Though this piece is inspired by Hurricane Katrina, this piece also speaks to the large human experience of trauma and the desire for help. The idea is that when one truly needs help and the feeling of when help cannot be offered when it is most needed, one would offer the excuse, "I can not today but I can help you tomorrow.' Other than the exhibition, the Sordoni Art Gallery will be hosting other events. On Nov. 10 at 2:30 p.m. Sincavage will host a director's tour. Sincavage will be discussing Logan's symbolism and metaphors used in his works that discuss issues facing Black Americans today. "I will be giving my own insight and notations on the work represented;' said Sincavage. At noon on Nov. 20, the Sordoni Art Gallery will host Family Hour: Coloring George Catlin. This event will celebrate NEPA artists that are inspired by nature. Jan Lokouta will lead the coloring and sketching workshop for children featuring Wilkes-Barre's own George Catlin. Attendees will learn more about Catlin and also immerse themselves in the exhibition. Stasko will host the Art in Your Hands workshop on Nov. 20 at 2 p.m. The workshop will run for one hour and during the workshop, attendees will create assemblage pendants using upcycled vintage materials and resin. "This workshop is more hands-on than the Coordinator's Tour;' said Stasko. "It gives people the opportunity just for the love of it:' The goal of the workshop is to give people the skills and tools in hopes to continue on in their own practice. "Even if we don't give them the tools, they still have a finished product that they made themselves that they can take home;' said Roberts. "It gives them something to remember from the exhibition:' Attendees will also learn about the jewelry-making process and the power of art trouve. There is no opening reception for this exhibition. However, there are plans to host a closing reception in the spring when the exhibition ends in March. Spring events pertaining to this exhibition have not been released yet, however, keep an eye out for them on the Sordoni Art Gallery's website and social media pages. @wilkesbeacon AJ.Rubino@wilkes.edu The Beacon/AJ Rubino This piece by Juan Logan tltled "I'll Save You Tomorrow". �.J Life, Arts & Entertainment The Beacon - November 3, 2021 8 The Bea November delight: Doggy Delicacies' PB pumpkin biscuits By Emlly Cherkauskas Editor-in-Chief November is here and the autumn season is staying with us for a while. What better way to fit the season than by treating your pups to some peanut butter pumpkin biscuits? Ingredients: 3 cups of whole wheat flour 1 15 oz can of pure pumpkin puree 3 tablespoons of peanut butter 1 egg Directions: First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix together the pumpkin puree, peanut butter and egg until the mix is homogeneous, as it will make the next step easier. Add the whole wheat flour and mix together. You will most likely have to mix the ingredients together at this part due to the thickness of the mixture. The dough should be moist and slightly sticky but not sticky enough to leave bits of mix on your hands. When everything is mixed, move on to the next step. Sprinkling some whole wheat flour on a surface and a rolling pin, roll out the dough until it reaches a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Use a cookie cutter or knife to cut out shapes for the treats. I used pawprint and dog bone cookie cutters. Continue cutting out shapes until you run out of dough. Place the treats onto ungreased parchment paper on a baking sheet Place into the oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes. To also check when the treats are finished baking, stick a toothpick or knife into the middle of a treat and see if anything sticks to it. When finished baking, place the treats on a rack and let cool. Then, refrigerate them. Enjoy! services They pro encapsula perplexi characte the insan Furthe would s thrifty cut come never ge platform5 the price them (I'n Now b profess I when it technolo to the dig downloa because 1 But I dig Notes: When looking for the can of pumpkin puree, make sure to grab the puree instead of canned pumpkin pie mix, as pumpkin pie mixes contain spices that are harmful to your dog.

The MCU is an American media franchise that is centered around superhero films produced by Marvel Studios, a subsidiary of Walt Disney Studios, with the films being based on characters that appear in the American comic books published by Marvel Comics. "Eternals" is based on a world created in 1976 by Jack Kirby. The comics' primary storyline revolves around the Celestials creating two different divergent races by performing genetic experiments on proto-humans, which are the long-lived Eternals and the deformed Deviants. These experiments were what led to superpower mutations in humans. The trailer for "Eternals" introduces the film's main villain, Kro, who is the warlord, general and dictator of the Deviants. Kro is known as being one of the first Earth Deviants ever created and "Eternals" will be his movie debut. The MCU is divided into distinct sections that have broad storylines. "Eternals" is the third film installment in phase four. Phase four will feature all of the Marvel Studios productions that will be released from 2021-2023. Phase four is also the first phase to include television series with "Wandavision" beginning the series, which premiered on Disney Plus in Jan. 2021. The films in phase four both released and unreleased are "Black Widow;' "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings;' "Eternals," "SpiderMan: No Way Home;' "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness;' "Thor: Love and Thunder;' "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever;' "The Marvels;' "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3;' "AntMan and the Wasp: Quantumania" and "Fantastic Four." The release schedule for phase four was delayed due to COVID-19. Leaked promotional artwork hit Twitter last January and merchandisers gave fans the first official descriptions of each character in "Eternals." The "Eternals" team will be made up of Ikaris, Sersi, Ajak, Phastos, Makkari, Druig, Gilgamesh, Thena, Kingo and Sprite. "Eternals" is also making MCU history by featuring the first openly gay couple in the universe; however, that will not be the only romance in the film. Gemma Chan, in an interview with Vanity Fair Italy, confirmed that her character Sersi has a romantic history with Ikaris and the Black Knight. Relationships are not necessarily essential for an MCU movie's plot but it appears as though this one will feature more superhuman romances than the previous films. Nevertheless, these new additions to the MCU are receiving a positive response among many. ''I'm excited to see it;' said Rachel Kern, a sophomore musical theatre major. "I hardly know anything about this new phase happening, so it's cool that there's so many movies coming out now that are introducing new characters for future films." The film was directed by Chloe Zhao, who also wrote the screenplay with Ryan Firpo, Patrick Burleigh and Kaz Firpo. It was produced by Kevin Feige. After composing the score for Marvel's "Iron Man" in 2008, Ramin Djawadi also composed the score for this film. The full soundtrack for the film comes out today. "Eternals" also has an extremely talented and well-known cast. Gemma Chan will be making her debut as Sersi, Richard Madden as Ikaris, Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo, Lia McHugh as Sprite, Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos, Lauren Ridloff as Makkari, Barry Keoghan as Druig, Don Lee as Gilgamesh, Harish Patel as Karun, Kit Harington as Dane Whitman, Salma Hayek as Ajak and Angelina Jolie as Thena. Harry Styles is also credited as Eros/Starfox in a post-credits scene. Jolie is perhaps the biggest and most familiar face to sign on. It was revealed that she was playing Thena, a powerful Eternal known for knowledge and fighting who is similar to the Greek goddess Athena, during Marvel Studios' panel at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2019. Jolie starred in many comic book, sci-fi and fantasy films over the years but this will be her first live-action film based on a superhero comic. The film had its world premiere in Los Angeles at the Dolby Theater on Oct. 18 and was screened at the Rome Film Festival on Oct. 24. "Eternals" was originally supposed to release on Nov. 6, 2020, but due to COVID-19 the release date shifted to February 2021 and then to the November 2021 date. Box Office Pro predicts that "Eternals" is estimated to earn between $82-$102 million during opening weekend. This puts the film at being the highest opening film in phase four. Despite the predicted success of the opening weekend, early reviews for the film are not as positive as others in the MCU and has one of the lowest Rotten Tomatoes scores yet. Currently, the MCU has a perfect record on Rotten Tomatoes since every movie has received a "fresh" rating. So far, "Eternals" has an estimated 81 reviews with the score landing at 64%, which makes it the lowest scoring movie in the MCU. Of course, this batch of reviews is a result of the initial premiere so the score could get better as other reviews filter in. ''I'm looking forward to it;' said Jack Flynn, a sophomore musical theatre major. ''I'm not as excited about it as I am for future releases like "SpiderMan: No Way Home" or "Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness" but I'm sure it'll be great. It has an all-star cast:' "Eternals" will be at RIC WilkesBarre Movies 14 on Friday, Nov. 5. at 4:15 p.m., 4:35 p.m., 7:00 p.m., 8:05 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. in normal view, 2D and 3D.

They can be varying shapes and sizes, but keep a general leaf shape consistent. Step 3: Repeat that step for all of the leaves to be put on the garland. Begin with just 10 leaves and poke holes In more to make the garland as long as desired. Step 2: Use the scissors to put six equally spaced holes down the middle of the leaf. Be careful as to not hit your finger with the blade. Step 4: Thread the yarn through the holes In the leaves. Begin from the back and then bring that yarn through the front. Repeat this for each leaf on the garland. Step 5: Hang the finished leaf garland for a Thanksgiving touch! Halloween is officially over, which means the transition to Thanksgiving decorations can begin. It is a perfect time to do a fall-themed craft to pumpkin-spice up any room. This foam leaf garland is easy and quick to make, which makes it good for the holiday switch. The required materials for this DIY are 2mm foam sheets in green, orange, red, yellow and brown, scissors, orange yarn and a yarn needle (optional). These materials are affordable, costing under $10 and can be found at any craft store, such as Joann Fabrics or Michaels, and Amazon. The first step is making the leaves out of the foam. Cut a leaf shape out of the first foam sheet about four inches tall and two inches wide in any shape. Repeat this until the whole foam sheet is cut out. Some leaves can be wider, thinner, shorter or taller, as the sizes are just general guidelines. Repeat cutting the leaves for every colored foam sheet. The number of leaves cut out will look very daunting and excessive but it allows the ones that did not come out as desired to be thrown away. The next step is to start making them into a garland. This is the hardest step of the process but is still generally easy to do as long as you are careful. Grab the scissors and make six equally spaced holes down the middle of the lea£ Open the scissors and use only one of the blades to make the holes. The holes can be pretty small, just make sure the tip of the scissor goes through the foam. The hard part is making sure to not cut yourself when pushing the blade through the foam. It takes an amount of force and your fingers will need to be positioned on either side of where the hole is being placed. Make sure your finger is not too close to the blade and that the blade does not go in too far as to slice across the finger. Start by making about 10 of the leaves with holes and move on to stringing them on the yarn. Also, you should decide on an order for the leaves. They can be in a pattern or random but arrange them in order. In order to string the leaves on, grab the yarn and thread it from the back through the bottom hole of the first lea£ This is where the optional yarn needle would come in. It is possible to do it without the needle but it may make it easier. To not use the needle, use the tip of your finger to slightly spread the hole open as your other hand pushes the yarn through this hole. The yarn will fray and unwrap at the ends so cut it when it becomes unable to string through the holes. Then, thread the yarn through the front into the second hole. Repeat by going from back to front through the lea£ Next, repeat these steps for every lea£ Once the first 10 leaves have been strung on, push them together and judge the length of the garland. Depending on where it is being placed, you can continue adding leaves on. Another option is to make multiple garlands with all the leaves. Either way, continue until the garland is as long as desired, sliding the leaves down the yarn to add more. To finish off the garland, cut the yarn off the ball and at the end of the garland, leaving a few inches on both ends. Tie a knot in the yarn at the end of the leaf adjacent to it. Double knot this to secure it and then cut the excess yarn. Repeat this for the other side. Now that both ends are finished and secured, feel free to hang the garland anywhere to add a Thanksgiving touch. @wilkesbeacon Elizabeth.Cherinka@wilkes.edu In a control, that thi to repre in hopes of perfe we will o authenti cannotc I have find mys unable t~ a never-e I make of the hurt me.

Students were able to participate in all the events for free on campus and get them pumped for the holiday. Freak Week began on Oct. 25 and lasted through Oct. 29. The spooky week is a Programming Board tradition during the last week of October. Events included: Mocktail Monday, which involved a zombie mocktail vendor coming to campus; Murder Mystery, where students who attended received a door prize and had to work together to find the murderer; Paint and Sip, which had a limit of 50 people; and Trick or Treat Bingo, where students were encouraged to wear their costumes so they could be entered in a contest to win an extra bingo board. The last event of Freak Week was a T-shirt giveaway. Students who went to three out of the four other events were able to receive a free T-shirt. Attendance was kept tracked by having holes punched "I participated in Freak Week because it is nice to get a break from studying and participate in fun events throughout the week." -Nicole Middleton Pl Pharamacy student on a car t at stu ents were given w en they arrived at their first activity.

College's elimination of hobbies is hurtful It's almost an unspoken expectation and truth that college students eat, sleep and breathe their academic responsibilities. Whether it be keeping up with classes or attending meeting after meeting for various clubs and extracurriculars, students are unbelievably busy to what could be considered an unhealthy point. With the goal of obtaining a good-paying job upon graduation, it's necessary to gain experience and knowledge that are supposed to prepare students for the real world. Because of the time commitment it takes for a student earning their degree in higher education, there is little opportunity to enjoy new or existing hobbies. It seems as if the college lifestyle is purposely designed to ensure students can only focus on their studies and other involvements, creating an atmosphere that doesn't allow time for anything else. Hobbies included. Even activities as simple as reading, painting, gaming, knitting/ crocheting and exercising don't fit into the busy schedules and lives of college students. The time that would usually be spent enjoying those hobbies has to be sacrificed to study or complete assignments before the impending deadlines. And no matter how important education is, it isn't fair that an element of what brings students peace and relaxation has to be given up the moment they step foot on a college campus. In comparison to earning a degree in higher education, hobbies may seem pointless or a "waste of time." Except the opposite is true, as having even just one hobby could alleviate the immense amount of stress they are under every single day. According to the Australian Government Department of Health, "Spending time on an activity that you enjoy can improve your mental health and wellbeing. Research shows that people with hobbies are less likely to suffer from stress, low mood and depression. Activities that get you out and about can make you feel happier and more relaxed:' It is no surprise that many students struggle with their mental health for a variety of reasons, but the stressors and anxiety of college life certainly don't help. Being able to participate in a hobby that bring joy and improves mental health can be groundbreaking for students, but the lack of available time eliminates that. Beyond mental health improvement, there are multiple benefits of hobbies that would enhance a college student's life and add an essential element of needed selfcare into everyone's routine. According to Kettering Global, the benefits of hobbies are physical, mental and emotional health, better social and interpersonal skills, creativity and self-improvement. On the surface, hobbies may seem pointless and nothing of importance, but the benefits are significant in multiple ways. The pandemic not only graced us all with an unexpected amount of extra time due to quarantine and safety precautions, but many discovered new hobbies to stay busy during the unprecedented time. And while everyone got to experience the great benefits of those hobbies, college students were forced to give them up all over again when life returned to "normal." Workloads became heavy again, schedules filled up with meetings and obligations and time had to be dedicated to assignments. At the end of the day, college and earning a higher education should not mean giving up activities that are enjoyable. Students are still human beings that need to take care of the~selves which includes having the opportunity to indulge in hobbies that are proven to be just as beneficial as classes are. If you're looking for a new hobby or something to pick up, Fort Hays State University recommends journaling, completing puzzles, cooking, team sports, yoga, gardening or knitting. We can only hope that the college experience changes in the coming years to allow students time for other activities outside of their academic commitments -- which is how it should be. @wilkesbeacon TheWilkesBeacon@wilkes.edu Letter to the editor policy: The Beacon welcomes letters to the editor from differing viewpoints.

Often we try to repre_ss or fight harsh realities we face in hopes that it will grant us the facade of perfection or peace of mind. However, we will only find peace in accepting our authentic ourselves and the things we cannot change. I have always been an anxious person. I find myself staring at the ceiling at night, unable to fall asleep, as my mind enters a never-ending thought loop: "I hate that I make mistakes. I hate that I am unsure of the future. I hate that others have hurt me. I hate that I hate these things. I wish I wasn't anxious. I wish we were still friends. I wish things were different. I wish I wasn't thinking about this right now:' I used to repress these thoughts and tried to ignore the problems I faced. I used to lie to myself and pretend all was perfect, that I was happy in hopes that I would actually believe it. I thought I could run from my problems or fake it until the feeling goes away, but it never did. Eventually, I realized that happiness rooted in lies will never grant the same satisfaction as genuine joy and peace. So, how have I been attempting to free myself from worry and the facade of happiness? I had to face my problems by accepting who I am, the things I cannot change, and the future that is developing before me. Instead of fighting unwanted thoughts or allowing them to become pervasive in my mind, I take the time to ponder on it. If it is something I can change, I accept the challenge and try to develop a solution. If it is something that is out of my control, I accept that I cannot change it, process that fact, and allow myself to move on. I had to accept that friendships come and go. I had to accept that I cannot control the past. I had to accept that I cannot control the future in absolute terms. I had to accept and embrace these thoughts to live in the present and to find peace in the life I have been dealt. This is much easier said than done. Stress has become a part of the human condition. Most of us find ourselves crumbling beneath the weight of stress. We worry about financial issues, work, relationships, health and so much more. It almost seems simpler to allow stress to consume us instead of facing it. However, when we live in a constant state of stress, we are not only harming our mental health but our physical health too. Many of the leading causes of death in America are linked to stress. In order to find control in our lives and to maintain our health, we must attempt to find a way to cope through acceptance. Although we may feel otherwise, we are capable of controlling our mind and embracing both the beautiful and ugly parts of our lives. When we embrace what life gives to us and find a way to live through the ugly, we are not complicit or passive, but rather, we are empowered. Acceptance is not always the end solution, but rather, it is the first step in healing. When we accept our issues and faults, we are granted the abilit1 to work on them. When we find ourselves running from problems on the hunt for serotonin, stress continues to live within us unconstrained. We must ask ourselves: "Why do we continue to hold so tightly to the things that bring us so much inner turmoil?" When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and fall apart, we are granted the gift of recovery and the opportunity to let go and move on. You are not your thoughts. You have control over them. We must spend less time resisting, less time running and more time accepting in order to live presently and find peace within ourselves. @wilkesbeacon Sydney.Allabaugh@wilkes.edu 'YOU' season three: Netflix's original social commentary By Lindsey Scorey Opinion Staff Writer The Netflix original series "YOU" launched the third season in the franchise two weeks ago on the streaming platform. The third season is an encapsulation of social commentary on a novel show concept, making the series stand out that much more over other options for binging. The whole third season revolved around the antiheroes Joe Goldberg and Love Quinn, a homicidal married couple that has decided to settle down in the suburbs of California, known as Madre Linda, with their son Henry. However, the fantasies and stalking endured by Joe every season now resonate with their neighbor Natalie. The plot unfolds greater from there. Spoilers to come now cue. After many entanglements with cheating, murder and money, a devious holy trinity, the couple finds themselves as both allies and enemies to each other. What is interesting about this, though, is just how the characters and their influences are written. Take for example a neighborhood married couple, Cary and Sherry. Sherry is described as a "momfluencer" who blogs about all the beautiful ups and downs of motherhood. Her words and actions are just as cringey as her selfmade title. Cary is the definition of what Generation Z would describe as toxic masculinity, a buff man who loves his keto diet and adventures in the woods to reconnect with his masculinity. These actions are not inherently cringey in themselves, but the portrayal of them is highly satirical. Cary and Sherry brought the necessary comedic relief to the show and broke up the darker content. They were not the Penn Badgley's performance as the only example of what privilege in the obsessive Goldberg was consistent as suburbs can look like. This season had . always, but many audience members multiple personality archetypes to work raved over the role of Quinn this with, making it much more enjoyable to season. Victoria Pedretti put on an act consume and analyze as the episodes flew of vengeance and pure emotion through through, which they inevitably did for her portrayal of Quinn. We finally saw me. her dark side come to fruition after only This season felt deep and getting a glimpse of it at the end of season psychologically provoking in the best two. ways, paying tribute to past plot points The characters of money and class while bringing in brand new ones. systems in this season are prevalent just as much as any other human character. The show arguably would not have been the same without that background. The mere fact that Quinn is able to sign a three-year lease to a bakery she wants in a high-end part of California is a commentary on the generational wealth she receives from her inheritance of being a member of a wealthy family. The final episodes of this series will leave the audience on the edge of their seats. It is likely one of my favorite series and seasons on Netflix to date just because of the impact of the plot and commentary. If you have not seen the series "YOU" yet, run to Netflix and binge the now three seasons worth of content. I promise there is something in it for everyone. Graphic by Zoey Rosensweet Lindsey.Scorey@wilkes.edu - �_J The Beacon - November 3, 2021 Opinion 16 Dean's Deep Dives:·Mitski, the beloved siren of somber sadcore By Dean Bowen Staff Writer An often held criticism of modem alternative music is that the sound has become monotonous, clouded by overwrought production and lukewarm emotional content. Escaping this trap and pioneering a sound all her own, Mitski has over the course of a lengthy career managed to hone a unique capability to remain relatable and grounded despite an industry seemingly hellbent on conformity. Throughout her career, Mitski has managed numerous rather sizable hits, with "Washing Machine Heart;' "First Love/Late Spring" and "Nobody" being a few examples. While these songs are popular for a reason and entirely worthy of their placement in any respectable sad playlist, there are other tracks in her discography that get overshadowed by these successes. The following list highlights ten such tracks, tracing a near-decade of innovation in sound and presentation. I. "Bag of Bones" - "Lush'' The first aspect of Mitski's ever-evolving sound that she perfected was the ballad. Preferring slower orchestral instrumentals early on in her career, the "Bag of Bones" instrumental is composed mainly of a piano and a harmonica. This minimalism allows Mitski's vocals to dominate this track, as she somberly reflects upon the draining nature of an emotionless yet intimate relationship. It is often believed that this is the first song Mitski ever made, showing even in the early stages of her career that she was capable of conveying emotion with unparalleled refinement and honesty. 2. "I Want You" - "Retired from Sad, New Career in Business" Another element that Mitski began to hone was the usage of verse style structure within her music. Blending spoken word poetry and a softened yet emotive vocal performance, "I Want You" beautifully illustrates the pain of a one-sided love affair. With a similarly strippeddown instrumental mainly composed of a single chord of a pipe organ, this story of mourning love is unmissable. 3. "Because Dreaming Costs Money, My Dear" - "Retired from Sad, New Career in Business" It is rare to see a rising artist admitting worries about the future of their career as it grows; however, such candid confessions are typical of Mitski. Lamenting the loss of her passion in the face of her future, Mitski uses competing metaphors of a fire and a sea to •.. depict her mental state. Continuing to cultivate an uncanny ability to build up an atmosphere in her music, the mood created by the somber piano and nearly teary vocal performance is painfully familiar to those who have suffered for their dedication to a craft. 4. "Townie" - 'Bury Me at Makeout Creek'' It was with "Bury Me at Makeout Creek" that Mitski truly began to experiment with her production, integrating aspects of rock into her sound. Beginning to refine her method of using the instrumental as a storytelling tool along with the lyrics, it was with this album where Mitski's careful production choices became as impressive as her vocal performances. "Townie" is a poignant showing of this method, as the frantic drums and synths of the instrumental perfectly accompany its story of youthful rebellion and nonconformity. 5. "Last Words of a Shooting Star" - "Bury Me at Makeout Creek" Despite changes to her sound, Mitski's ability to make music best suited for sad reflection continued. Further refining her ability to make beautiful music out of the darkest parts of her psyche, "Last Words of a Shooting Star" puts to words a depressive spiral. The simple guitar of this track carries an impermeable yet understandable sadness, elevating the farewell letter-esque lyrics and tying together an unmissable depiction of a shattered mindset 6. "Texas Reznikoff' - "Bury Me at Makeout Creek" In a poignant showing of the duality of sound yet to come, "Texas Reznikoff" is defined by a jarring beat switch, shifting from a familiar guitar-strong love song to a drumheavy banger in seconds. Quoting famed Objectivist poet Charles Reznikoff, Mitski weaves together a tale of association between love and the places it can occur in. 7. "Happy'' - "Puberty 2" Perhaps the most important facet of Mitski's connection with her audience is managing to describe extremely intimate and specific situations in a relatable way. "Happy" is one such description, as she describes the pitfalls of reliance on others for one's own happiness. Utilizing a poetic styling of her lyrics along with an instrumental dominated by a looping sample reminiscent of a train, she depicts the cyclical nature of dependency and the harm it can cause. 8. "Geyser" - "Be The Cowboy" "Be The Cowboy'' was a reinvention of sorts for Mitski, centering heavily upon personal growth and a revitalized confidence. The opening track, "Geyser;' is a characteristic love song, but with an entirely different focus. Speaking in an interview with Pitchfork in 2018, Mitski clarified that the subject of this track and her stated enamourment within it was her music career itsel£ Finding peace with the fact that her primary outlet and way to relate to the world is music and proving that she could be successful making the music she wants to make, "Geyser" is a celebration of this revitalized passion and an ample introduction to an album that is (in my opinion) her best to date. 9. <~ Pearl" - "Be the Cowboy'' In a moment of reflection within a spiraling discography charting years of heartbreak, "A Pearl" is a poignant description of what's left behind after an abusive relationship. Continuing her propensity toward metaphor, Mitski depicts the internalization of her struggle as an eerie yet beautiful pearl. Characterizing her damaged past as an irremovable reminder of how she "fell in love with a war;' she manages to encapsulate the numerous intensive emotions involved with healing from such a situation. This ability to concisely describe the harms of life without cheapening the emotion involved continues to be a high point within Mitski's work, allowing for the listener to understand and relate to the story being told to them without being weighed down by overwritten lyrics. I 0. "Working for the Knife" - Single Choosing to essentially disappear after "Be The Cowboy': Mitski faded off of the internet and out of the public eye entirely for almost two years. Rumors endlessly circulated that she was done for good, having left behind a solid discography and a mystifying evolution of sound. These were proven wrong, however, when she returned with "Working for the Knife': It was not the triumphant return to the industry that some expected, however. Lamenting the world moving on without her along with a perceived Qustifiably so) pressure to only sing about crushingly depressive topics, it is clear that Mitski did not lose her trademark pessimistic edge in her absence. Behind the hits that have cemented her status as a mainstay of the modern sadcore musical movement, Mitski has assembled a discography of impressive innovation and brutally honest emotion. The resulting music is undeniably somber in nature, but the gorgeous instrumentals and extremely talented vocal performances within it make for a listening experience entirely unique in terms of presentation. As shown by her recent return, it is clear that Mitski has more to give to the music world. Given her career of constant innovation and a near mastery of sonically interesting production, it is nearly sure that what is to come from Mitski will be just as entrancing as her previous work.

Streaming services are truly like lifelines to us. They provide us with alternate universes encapsulated in shows and movies in perplexing storylines and dynamic characters. They offer us a reprieve from the insane world of university. Furthermore, as college students, I would say almost all of us are pretty thrifty when it comes to spending. We cut corners where we need to, but we will never get rid of our beloved streaming platforms, no matter how high they raise the prices, And wow, are they raising them (I'm looking at you, Netflix). Now before we dive too deep, I must profess I am rather like an old person when it comes to all things under the technology umbrella. I am constantly late to the digital entertainment party. I didn't download TikTok until this year. Ironic, because I am in a digital-focused major. But I digress. The three streaming services I will be building up and tearing down are Netflix, Hulu and Prime Video. I know there are more, newer ones making a splash, like Disney Plus, Peacock and Paramount Network. But my basic self only uses those first three, so I do not have an opinion on the others. Let's start with Netflix. The monarch. The supreme. The OG. I'm sure like many of you, I first entered the world of streaming services by making a Netflix account. From a design and aesthetic standpoint, I think Netflix has it down. For the most part, I find the site easy to navigate on all devices. The red branding is iconic and synonymous with their brand. I even think the thump sound in their original content hits hard. All that being said, in my opinion, they fall short content wise. I am not someone who gags over Netflix originals. I enjoyed some, such as "The Crown" and "Squid Game;' but personally I prefer to watch older cable shows that ended over 10 years ago, rather than new Netflix originals. Some of you are about to be mad at me, but it must be said: I think I prefer Hulu. Hear me out. It definitely has some cons, though. I do not think the design and functionality are up to par with that of Netflix, it's not as accessible or as aesthetically pleasing. Also, many times it fails to load for more, telling me I need to refresh for a connection. Maybe that's on my end, but Prime Video and Netflix rarely do that. You also need add-ons to unlock certain shows and movies. Hulu+Live Tv is $65-$71 a month. Too steep for me, thank you, but I believe this is probably supposed to be a replacement for cable altogether, so I suppose the prices make sense. Some pros to it are many shows that are being broadcasted currently on cable add episodes to Hulu the day after they originally air on TV, so it's easy to keep up with your favorite shows. If you're someone like me who likes to watch shows that already had their runs, Hulu has a lot more selections, I think. I love binge watching shows; I can watch over 25 episode 10 season shows in about a month, give or take. That's probably not a good thing, but Hulu is the platform that allows me to do this best. Full disclosure: I very rarely use Prime Video. I pretty much only use it when I learn about a really old, unknown show or movie. They have tons of those. It is kind of hard to distinguish the pros and the cons. First, it is a benefit of having an Amazon Prime account, so I believe you do not have to pay a flat fee for it, it's included under the Prime umbrella. That being said, you have to pay individually for tons of shows and movies. But you also have the option to rent them at a lower price. In the scheme of things, I am not sure if it's a money save or a money steal. I guess it depends on how much you use it. Overall, streaming platforms, like everything else in life, have pros and cons and rob you of time and money while providing brief periods of reprieve. ,,c @wilkesbeacon Rudy.Urenovich@wilkes.edu How 'Dune; a staple of sci-fi, lands with a sci-fi genre hater mnseason By Hannah Simerson see why this is the case.

I am surprised to be writing such a positive review about "Dune:' I had fully expected to hate the film due to my preconceived notions about sci-fi films, but I would go as far as to say that "Dune" restored my hope in the genre. I think that the film's following is onto something when they say that it is the grandfather of sci-fi. If the film can turn a sci-fi hater like myself into a sci-fi-curious viewer, it must be doing something right. I must give "Dune" five out of five stars. I have no complaints about the film whatsoever. From the breathtaking visuals to the incredible talent and captivating score, "Dune" is a masterpiece. You can watch "Dune" in theaters across the country or at home on HBO Max.

Excited fans across the country got ready for a night of live music by picking out stunning outfits, relishing in the anticipation of seeing the one and only Harry Styles, and getting ready to hear the singer's sophomore album "Fine Line" in sold-out arenas. For thousands of people in the crowds at the 39 cities around the United States, these shows were the first concerts they attended since the pandemic started. Myself included. And I cannot say enough good things about how absolutely breathtaking this tour was. Despite how crazy this is going to sound, I have been lucky enough to see Styles a total of five times on this tour. Yes, you read that right, five. At the time this is published, I will have attended every single one of those concerts. Four of the shows were intentionally planned and the tickets have been held onto for almost two years. The fifth, by total surprise, was a last-minute invite from a friend. And although it seems a little crazy to see the same artist five times on the same tour, "Love On Tour" was worth it. As a dedicated fan myself, I had seen Styles a few other times prior to this tour, twice with One Direction in 2014 and 2015 before the band went on hiatus, and once on his first world tour back in 2018. This wasn't my first time seeing Styles, but there's something incredible about his shows that cannot be found anywhere else. But this time around, there was an immense amount of love and pure happiness in the air. It's safe to say that "Love On Tour" is easily one of my very favorite tours that I have ever been to. Styles himself is a live performer like no other. He's someone that you can tell was born to entertain, which is clear in every show of his with the unique elements and how full of energy he always is. Put him in the world's most famous arena, the iconic Madison Square Garden, for a total of five scheduled dates and you're almost guaranteed an unforgettable time right from the start. I was lucky enough to see him four out of the five times at , The Garden and arguably the choice of venue enhanced the experience even further. But most importantly, when the lights went down signaling the start of the show, the excitement skyrocketed to an all-time high and you knew a stunning night was about to begin. The opening act for "Love On Tour" is Jenny Lewis, a singersongwriter who hails from Las Vegas. creates art. And in the middle of the intro, Styles rose up from underneath the stage and opened with "Golden," the lighthearted, upbeat song that also starts his sophomore album. The crowd immediately was on their feet, jumping along and screaming the wellknown lyrics to one of the singer's At 45 years old, she took the stage before Styles and showcased her own talent through a handful of songs that mix the genres of country, alternative and indie together. Her short but stunning setlist included singles "See Fernando" and "She's Not Me;' both fantastic songs that matched the atmosphere of the tour which many fans also enjoyed hearing before the main act. After Lewis left the stage, the thousands in the crowd waited with anticipation. It was impossible not to be jittery with excitement for what's to come, and the moment the arena went dark, a chorus of screams erupted and "Love On Tour" was officially underway. The one-of-a-kind opening included bright visuals of bunnies and bursts of music intertwined with a saying about how doing things dangerously with style popular singles. Right from the start, the concert was everything a fan or regular concert-goer could ever wish for. Styles controlled the stage while wearing a different stunning outfit each night, my personal favorite was MSG Night One where he performed shirtless in a black suit with feathery sleeves and had a setlist that included a perfect mix of ballads and songs that are worthy of a dance party. His happy attitude rubbed off on the crowd with whom he interacted frequently throughout the night, even having us sing happy birthday to a few lucky people, and the atmosphere was nothing less than joyful and immense amounts of love. An uncommon, but thoroughly loved difference about "Love On Tour" was the stage set up. The concert was in the round, which meant every single seat in the arena was sold and Styles had two catwalks on either end of the stage which was located in the middle of the arena. While many artists don't choose this setup often, it made Styles' show that much more special. No matter where you sat in the crowd, you always had a good view of the singer. For all of my shows, I had a different seat and although some of them were closer to the stage than others, I never complained because Styles moved around the stage frequently and everyone got an amazing glimpse of him in person. Throughout the night, thousands of smiles never faltered and some tears were shed during the emotional moments, especially when Styles gave the grateful speech before singing "Fine Line:' My favorite songs that Styles performed were "Canyon Moon;' "Sunflower, Vol. 6:' and "Treat People With Kindness:' These three were also the ones I favored off the second album, but hearing them live was an entirely different experience. It was magical in every sense of the word and each time I cherished the short amount of time that was full of genuine joy. But in all honesty, the whole setlist was perfect and every song was performed in the most amazing way. Now, seeing the same artist five times on tour is usually seen as repetitive. I got asked "Isn't it just the same show each time?" or "What's the point in going to a concert again after you've already seen it?" more than I can count. But I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to attend "Love On Tour" as much as I did. Each show was different from the last, but all nights that I will never forget. I have been to countless concerts in my life already, but Styles' "Love On Tour" was hands-down my favorite. Not only do I adore Styles as a person and performer, but the shows on this tour were unlike any other I have ever attended. The atmosphere was full of an unbelievable amount of love, happiness and acceptance that is only present when seeing Styles. Every penny I spent on tickets and every minute that I waited for these concerts to finally happen because of the postponement was beyond worth it. If you ever have the chance, I cannot recommend seeing Styles live enough. From an artist who preaches kindness and has a discography with outstanding songs, it's the best time ever.

This World Series is the Astros' third time playing in the title round within the last five years, making appearances in 2017, 2019 and now 2021. The Astros began their playoff run by finishing 95-67 during the course of the regular season, clinching a presence in the postseason with their fourth American League West Division title. They went into the playoffs as the No. 2 seed of the American League, lining them up to face the No. 3 seed Chicago White Sox in the first round, the American League Division Series (ALDS). The Astros won the best-of-five series against the White Sox in four games, which sent them to their fifth consecutive American League Championship Series (ALCS) dating back to 2017. In the ALCS, they faced the Boston Red Sox, who won this year's American League Wild Card game against the New York Yankees and their ALDS against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Astros took game one of the ALCS but went on to lose the next two, giving the Red Sox a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Despite the deficit, Houston went on to win the next three games, win the ALCS 4-2 and move on to the World Series. Yordan Alvarez was named the ALCS MVP, hitting one home run with six runs batted in and a .522 batting average, the highest ever in ALCS play For the Atlanta Braves, 2021 is their first World Series appearance in 22 years dating back to 1999. In spite of 13 playoff appearances since before the year before the new millennium, the Braves failed to reach the championship round until 2021. They clinched their playoff berth this year with an 88-73 record in the regular season, which won Atlanta their 11th National League (NL) East Division title since 2000. They faced the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLDS, winning the series 3-1. The series was highlighted by a gamewinning home run in the eighth inning of the decisive game four by Atlanta's veteran first baseman Freddie Freeman. In the NLCS, the Braves faced the reigning World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers, who defeated the St. Louis Cardinals in the NL Wild Card Game and the San Francisco Giants in the NLDS. Atlanta won the NLCS against Los Angeles in six games for a 4-2 series finish, finally ending their 22-year NL pennant drought. With the Dodgers eliminated from the postseason, the Braves extended the streak of an MLB season ending without a repeat champion, with the last being the New York Yankees when they three-peated in 2000 (1998, 1999, 2000). Mid-season free agent acquisition Eddie Rosario was named the NLCS MVP, who tied the record for most hits in a postseason series with 14 hits in the six games. Game one of the 2021 World Series took place on Oct. 26, with the Astros hosting the Braves at Minute Maid Park. Braves outfielder Jorge Soler made MLB history by becoming the first player to hit a leadoff home run as the very first batter of a World Series game. Atlanta capitalized on the momentum made by Soler, scoring five runs within the first three innings, two of them coming via a two-run home run by another Braves outfielder, Adam Duvall. The Braves went on to take game one on the road, by a final score of 6-2. Game two took place the very next day, and it was all Houston early on. Going into the bottom of the second tied 1-1, the Astros scored four runs thanks to run-scoring hits by catcher Martin Maldonado and outfielders Jose Siri and Michael Brantley. Second baseman Jose Altuve added on to the Astros' lead with a solo home run in the bottom of the seventh inning, putting the score at 7-2 Astros. The score would not change for the rest of the game and the Astros would tie the series against the Braves at one win apiece. Altuve's home run was his 22nd in his postseason career, tying him for second alltime with longtime Yankees center fielder Bernie Williams. All statistics and information were acquired from MLB.com.

Last year, the Colonels finished 3-7, and they hope to improve on that record this season. "We are looking forward to getting back to a full year of action and appreciate the opportunities that are in front of us;' said head coach Tara Macciocco. "Everyone is so much more appreciative of the opportunity to compete on a daily basis:' Wilkes is looking to replace two big players from last year's team in Maddie Kelley and Gabby Smicherko. Kelley and Smicherko were key to both the offensive and defensive side of the ball for the Colonels, and were the leaders of a young squad. The two seniors on this year's team, guards Kendra Smith and Juliann Duignam, are stepping up in terms of leadership for the Colonels on and off the court. They realize they have to be much more vocal to help get this Wilkes team to their full potential. "As a senior, I've been trying to take the underclassmen under my wing and get them accustomed to the style of play, as well as the culture of the team;' said Duignam. The pride of the program since Macciocco took over as head coach has been defense. The Colonels will look to impose their will on the defensive side of the ball this year. They have quick guards that can pressure the ball, to go along with tall shot blockers in the paint to contest the rim. "We're looking to be a strong defensive team and force other teams to be uncomfortable offensively;' said Smith. Wilkes is focused on being one of the toughest teams in the conference. They know that shots will not fall every night, but their defense can help create easier offense for a relatively inexperienced group. This will help them compete in a tough MAC-Freedom conference. "I think our offense will come from our defense;' said Duignam. "If we can get stops at one end of the court, the offense will fall into place." On the offensive side of the ball, the Colonels will look to grow after a strong ending to last year's season. Their young players got a taste of college basketball last year in the shortened season, but a full practice schedule and season should allow the young guns to improve on offense day in and day out. "We want to be a team that outworks our opponents every game;' said Macciocco. "We play extremely hard and leave it all on the floor. We have a very quick lineup at every position, and hope to take advantage of our speed on both ends of the floor:' The team is eager to get better and to start competition. They have all the .....

By Arlel Reed Sports Editor The men's basketball team is excited and grateful to return to the court for their first real season in two years. Last year, the team was only able to compete in nine games due to COVID-19, scoring 4-5 in this abbreviated season. 'Tm looking forward to the full 25 game schedule and the opportunity for our guys to have a normal season;' said head coach Izzi Metz. "Last year obviously, we were grateful to play any games last year, but you know this is going to be, hopefully, much more than normal:' Even though the team was not able to play a complete season last year, the benefits of having even a partial season will show up in games this year. "We didn't think we would play last year, but we ended up getting nine games and a couple of practices," said Metz. "I think just getting that chemistry with each other on the court, and in pick-up game opportunities after the season allowed our guys to get to know each other's games. We were able to see some success on the court in game situations, and I think that was beneficial had we not played or practiced at all. I think this allowed us to get a little further ahead than expected:' Metz has been coaching at Wilkes for eight seasons. For the first time in his coaching stint at Wilkes, Metz was named a captain to the program. "We've never had a captain in my time here;' said Metz. "I felt like it was the right time and that our team could get a nice boost from Sean Coller being our captain. Sean just really stood out to us as a leader by example and not afraid to communicate with his teammates and the coaches. I think he has a universal respect within the program. I think it was a natural selection to have Sean as our captain:' Coller is a two-year starter and a senior with one of the most consistent stat lines from year to year. Coller discussed his excitement for the new role and emphasized being a steady hand that the team can depend on this season. "It's an honor. When coach talked to me about it, I was really proud that he would even consider me for that;' said Coller. "I just want to fulfill that role and lead our team. As a captain, I am obviously a leader, but I know I am not the only one leading:' In addition to the leadership found in Coller, two crucial pieces for the Colonels' The Beacon/Ariel Reed Senior guard Sean Coller looks to Landon Henry (not pictured) to determine where to cut against Arcadia University on Feb. 20.

Sophomore forward Trent Fisher sweeps the ball over the head of an Arcadia defender to get an open pass on Feb. 20. offense and defense return in the form of senior guard Drake Marshall and sophomore forward Trent Fisher. "Drake is a senior now, and has a lot of experience;' said Metz. "We want him to lead and we think he can be the most complete wing-guard player in the conference because he has the ability to guard any position on the court with his length and athleticism. He is a scorer and makes hard shots. We want him to play a complete game on both sides of the ball every game and inspire his teammates:• Marshall is coming off a hot season, averaging 14.8 points per game and 5.8 rebounds per game. Marshall's deadly shot was crucial in closing games for the Colonels. His efforts in the season placed him on the First Team All-MAC Freedom. "With Trent, we want him to keep progressing and getting better;' said Metz. "I think more game experience will be good. He showed a lot of growth and showed signs of what he can do last year. Hopefully he will keep expanding his game and continue to grow-he has a really high ceiling:' Fisher, the returning rookie of the year, showed that he has potential coming up this season. Coming off an ankle injury in the preseason, Fisher was slow out of the gates. However, when he got cooking, he became an indispensable asset for Wilkes. In the seven games that Fisher appeared in, he was their second leading scorer with 13.4 points per game and 7.7 rebounds per game. Early signs of what this young player could do gleamed through in their contest against Del Val where the rook put up a near double-double with 23 points and nine rebounds. "For myself I'm looking to improve my game in all aspects of the game, including shooting the ball better from the outside and becoming a much better defender;' said Fisher. "I am definitely going to strive to be a first team all-league and potentially fight for the player of the year honor. This year should be a fun one for all of us:' Coller, Marshall and Fisher, alongside their teammates, kick off their season next week on Nov. 10 at Clarks Summit University at 8 p.m. @wilkesbeacon Ariel.Reed@wilkes'.edu � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The event specifically honored 29 Korean War veterans and their families as they received Ambassador for Peace Medals. The ceremony opened with the presentation of the colors by Wilkes University's AFROTC Detachment 752 and the singing of the National Anthem by Kalley Kovaleski. Father Thomas Looney, President of King's College, performed the invocation. Wilkes President Greg Cant welcomed university members, community members and veterans to the ceremony and spoke on the importance of having this event every year, not just at Wilkes but everywhere. He also acknowledged the veterans and offered another thank you to their families. ''A Veterans Day celebration would not be complete without extending a heartfelt thanks to the loved ones of veterans and members of the armed services:' said Cant. "Their support enabled those brave individuals to carry out their duty, both here and abroad:' His personal connection to his grandfather who served in World War I was highlighted as he pointed out the metal he wears on his lapel.

"With that said, a lot of us have also lost a few along the way. Everyday isn't only Veterans Day, but Memorial Day as well:' Evans ended his speech by explaining the importance of recognizing and helping the veterans at home going through hardships as well. He gave the statistic that 22 vets a day will take their own life. He encouraged audience members to reach out to friends and family who have served and make sure those veterans know they are cared for. State Sen. John Yudichak then spoke of the importance of the service that veterans have given to the American people. He set the stage of the war and gave details of the American actions that led to, and occurred during, the Korean War. The next and final speaker before the presentation of the medals was Senator Pat Toomey. The son of a Korean marine veteran, he spoke about the work his office does with veterans.

It started in traditional fashion with a call to order and roll being taken. Next was the approval of minutes and the treasurer's report. The treasurer's report stated that there is a total of $38,332 across all SG accounts. The first order of business for the week was a team-building workshop for SG as a whole. It was done with the help of Jill Price, the coordinator of Wilkes Adventure Education (WAE). The goal of Price coming was to promote team building among the members of SG and help them all pinpoint the reason as to why they are all there. They did activities such as word association, getting to know you sessions and partner activities. They ended it by reevaluating those core values they said earlier. The second and final order of business for the week was a presentation for an upcoming winter event. The event is still under planning, but the event would take place sometime in early December before finals took place. It is to be inside the MAC and many activities are to be there such as inflatables, food trucks, yard games, food, and prizes. The first draft of the budget came out to be $6,000.

The exhibition opened Nov. 2 and features Logan's own artwork he created, artworks Logan cited as inspiration, as well as works he has been collecting since the 1970s. Sincavage's tour of the exhibition highlighted the metaphor and symbolism of Logan's work, leading the audience through iterative symbols in his art and how his work pulls from other artwork and cultural moments. Sincavage explained her goal as she began to lead viewers through the gallery. 'Tm going to talk about some of the works, but I think more importantly I want to get into decoding them so that you are at a place where you feel confident looking at some of the work and how it's perhaps meant to be understood;' she explained. "Juan is somebody using symbols and material to tell a lot of his stories:' To begin the tour, the work, "Approved" was analyzed. The piece is self-described as a self-portrait by Logan. In the piece, Logan uses the symbol of the Star of David as a symbol of otherness, nodding to Jewish history and the use of the Star to set the Jewish community apart. Along with this symbol, identification numbers, letters and fragmented shapes are used in the work. The fragmentation and abstract qualities of the work were also highlighted and served as a starting point for critically analyzing other works throughout the tour. Sincavage then moved to talk about the Beach Paintings where she for the first time highlighted the symbols that would be continually used throughout other works in the gallery. "We are also looking at these amorphous shapes that you see here. This is considered the black community;' she explained while pointing out shapes on the work "Highland Beach:' Sincavage then pointed to a few smaller shapes in the center of the work which audience members identified as being in the shape of a head. "This is people;' Sincavage explained. "This is a person, this is how you're building that communitY:' The piece of art which has been used widely on campus to announce the opening of the new gallery, "Help Me, Save Me, Love Me", was studied with Sincavage's guidance. The piece consists of clustered and dispersing puzzle pieces that are not connected in the traditional way of a puzzle, but are rather scattered amorphous black splotches and the headshaped symbols. Central to the work is also the large red cross, a seeming nod to FEMA and the Red Cross which Logan believed didn't do all they should to assist and instead of creating a space of safety, a space of violence was created. The symbols and references in "Help Me, Save Me, creating St coll c " g ember 2, 2021- March 13, 2022 The Beacon/ Genny Frederick Karley Stasko, Devyn Cammarota and Alyssa Roberts assist In the tour of Logan's artwork. as if spilled from a box. The mixed media work is Logan's response to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, which he thought was handled poorly by the American government. Sincavage held up an aerial image of the Superdome filled with people taking shelter. The image, Sincavage explained, was what Logan used for inspiration. The audience saw the correlation between the crowd pictured at the Superdome and Logan's work, now made clear by the identification of the Love Me", are also seen in ''I'll Save You Tomorrow", a mixed media work. The continuous symbols present in these works continue in works throughout the gallery such as, "By Any Other Name" and "The Draft". In addition to Logan's works, Sincavage pointed out artists who influenced him and where connections could be drawn between the work of both artists. Audience members found the addition of these additional artists interesting and helpful to an understanding of Logan's work. "Juan Logan, and also a number of his influences, are artists that I was not familiar with;' said Dr. Lisa Kadlec, associate professor of biology. "So it was just a really nice opportunity to learn about not only the exhibition artist, but some of these other artists, and kind of bring together the influences in his art and just come at a more holistic sense of his art and what he's trying to portray." The direction from Sincavage was appreciated by those who came to the gallery, who may not have understood the art fully if additional context was not offered. "The consistent pattern of the shape of the heads is something that I didn't make a connection with;' explained Dr. Maria Grandinetti, associate professor and chair of undergraduate nursing. "I saw the pieces prior to the tour and I didn't make a connection until she pointed them out throughout her lectures. So for someone who doesn't have an art background, I've never created art myself, there's something that everyone, even if they're not artists themselves, can gain by coming to the gallery and looking at things and listening." The tour through Logan's "Creating and Collecting" gallery was interesting and educational for members all across the campus. "I absolutely adore the gallery;' .said Lisa Reynolds, an associate professor of digital design and media arts. "I think that it's an overlooked tool for learning and teaching, but I think there could be a lot of connections made between the material that all the faculty are teaching, in every discipline, to themes that are emergent in the gallery. I think this is a show that's very accessible and it's a show that I think a lot of people from a lot of different parts of the university can come in and sort of appreciate in different ways:' Sincavage hopes to have Logan visit campus in Feb. 2022. Until then members of the Wilkes community and the broader community can view the gallery on Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturday from 12 p.m. to Sp.m. Logan's exhibition will be in the Sordoni Art Gallery until March 13, 2022. @wilkesbeacon Genevieve.Frederick@wilkes.edu r �_J The Beacon - November 17, 2021 VETERANS, from front The ceremony continued with the presentation of Ambassador for Peace medals to 17 veterans and their families. Lt. Col. Mark Kaster did the official orders and Cadet Col. Kyle Zborezny read names of the veterans, while Toomey, Yudichak and Cant presented the awards. One of the veterans who was awarded was Carl Boos, a Pittston native whose grandson attends Wilkes. "It was very nice that they brought everyone out here today, including my Grandpa JerrY:' said Matt Costello, a senior electrical engineering major. "He served 26 missions over North Korea as a top gunner for a B-29 bomber. And it was News very nice how everyone acknowledged him. They gave him his metal and his honors and it was a very nice ceremony overall." The support from the University and community were felt by not only those honored, but also from ROTC members and student Veterans. "It's great to see that Wilkes could host this and really show the students and the veterans and those that are like us preparing to go into it that they're going to be supporting us as we , continue throughout it;' said Alec Leese, a Bloomsburg University senior finance major, and a member of the Air Force ROTC. "Being able to see this support from our congressional and Senate members is extremely important and remembering a lot of those people up there, they served a long time ago. To see that we're still recognizing them and showing the importance of their service is really important:' Evans emphasized the care for events like this. He spoke about how veterans should be celebrated everyday, not just on Veterans Day. "The service of these people is the reason we're able to do stuff like this," said Evans. "So it doesn't matter the size of the institution, as long as the support's there. That means the world." Members of the Veterans Council who helped organize the event were glad to see the turnout for the event and hope the ceremony enlightened some attendees. "To hear all the different perspectives 4 on veterans day and specifically around the Korean war, it was amazing;' said Everard Riley, graduate student in mathematics and vice president of the Veterans Council. "I think it definitely opens the eyes of the young. Right as they're getting out into the world and first starting to see things away from home and from the shelter of their family. So it's important to show them these kinds of things. And I think not only ceremonies like this, but having just the ROTC on campuses is just eye opening:' Angela Fiorentino, the secretary of the Veterans Council noted how the event was much larger this year in comparison to other years. @wilkesbeacon Zachary.Paraway@wilkes.edu 1 s ce of TC lin us. just ups TI in in the "Wl Air Force ROTC Detachment 752 stands at attention during the ceremony.

The new 12.3.1 software boasts updates to the program resulting in a more efficient use of Mathematica. Andy Dorsett, a senior academic account manager at Wolfram Technology, presented Wolfram Mathematica's updated software. The most recent updates were unveiled in July and include support for Apple products, singlesign-on software, new notebook features and other bug fixes. The technology company was founded in 1987 and has since provided technology that assists not only students and staff at the collegiate level, but also assists professionals and even Nobel Prize winners. Mathematica allows for professors to show students problems and equations in a more visible form through the use of threedimensional graphs. In addition to these types of visuals, the program can help to show problems and equations at different steps throughout the problem-solving process. Dorsett claims that the main reason Mathematica is so powerful and useful for professors and students is because of the software's unique coding language. "Users can use their curiosity to experiment and play around with the coding;' said Dorsett. "The interface is super easy to interact with, but it still allows users to try complex things. All of ~:.. this is done ·4 .,. ! ·1 within a rigid structure, meaning that rules cannot be bent or broken, and there are no exceptions to that:' The structured rules ~ of Mathematica are another one of Wolfram's big claims, as these structured rules help to avoid errors and show users what is and is not possible. The company argues that even with the strict rules, complex graphs and functions are still possible. The ease of use and the ability to still perform complex tasks makes the software practical for use outside the classroom and in the real world. "So far I have only used this program for my differential equations class, but it is really helpful to illustrate the graphs of the equations we use in class:' said sophomore mechanical engineering major Tess Edwards. In addition to all ofthe features built into Mathematica, their newest additions to the program include the ability to move work to their cloud This cloud then allows users to share the software with peers, or to be able to pull work up at a presentation or different location. All of the features of Mathematica are r----.,. what make the software unlike other coding programs. "Other codes, like Java, R, and Ruby, are free, and that is hard to compete with:' said Dorsett. "The features and the overall robust technology of Mathematica, however, make the difference:• Aside from calculus and solving equations, Mathematica has several other uses that make it even more useful in other fields. The program can be used to demonstrate to students the ways in which things work, as well as being able to complete other tasks like extracting and analyzing data from Excel spreadsheets. "It is a useful tool when completing math assignments and it's easier to use compared to other coding programs:' said Ryan Lasher, senior mechanical engineering major. With this program and its availability at Wilkes, students can start with an idea and let their creativity guide them to new and different solutions. The software has uses across many different fields, and can even help students· finish equations when they are not sure of the next step.

News Editor This Spring break, Wilkes Adventure Education is planning to host a cross-country trip to Washington state, leaving options flexible as to what students might want to do, including backpacking, caving, skiing and more. WAE has been taking advantage of these multiple day breaks for the past 15 years of its existence, helping students get further out of the Wyoming Valley and their own comfort zones. "WAE has provided me with new opportunities to learn about myself,' said Mel Fouts, junior environmental engineering major.

The bill is a "once in a generation investment" in infrastructure as well as a movement toward the mediation of climate concerns. "It isn't often that bills pertaining to transportation, infrastructure, power, water and the environment are in the forefront of politics, never mind any of them actually getting to the president's desk to be signed;' said Haley Perrego, senior environmental engineering major. ''According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, America gets a grade of C- for our infrastructure, so I think it is about time that we start doing something about it:' The bill is broken up into Divisions A through K with each division including a large breakdown of parts, titles and sections. Division A in the Act is for Surface Transportation and Division B is the Surface Transportation Investment Act of 2021. These divisions include the updates of roads and bridges as well as the development and continuation of programs, including the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program and safe routes to school. $110 billion will be allotted to repair infrastructure and support these programs. Many of the sections within the bill focus on the reduction of carbon and emissions. The White House fact sheet on the bill cites the transportation sector as the largest single source of greenhouse emissions. "The legislation will expand public transit options across every state in the country, replace thousands of deficient transit vehicles, including buses, with clean, zero em1ss1on vehicles, and improve accessibility for the elderly and people with disabilities;' explained the White House fact sheet. There will be $7.5 billion invested in electric vehicle charging stations with the goal of increasing the purchasing of electric vehicles, so as to decrease the environmental impacts of motor vehicles. Other sections include pollinatorfriendly practices and the invasive plant elimination program. Reforms on rail and Amtrak are also included with programs specifically focused on the Northeast Corridor. $66 billion will be added to rail funding for this project in particular. Energy is Division Din the bill, and does not only include programs and funding for the power grid and development of new clean energy technologies, but also includes a focus on the cybersecurity of the power grid. Throughout the division, a throughline is the clean energy programs being developed. Carbon capture, removal, utilization and- storage testing are all included within the bill. More specific programs, such as the Geologic Carbon Sequestration on the Outer Continental Shelf, are also some of the other programs being funded through the bill. Clean energy infrastructure such as hydropower, solar energy and nuclear energy will receive funding for planning and testing. Energy efficiency is also a focus of the legislation with sections on the energy efficiency of buildings, industry, manufacturing, schools and more. Regular power outages, caused by natural disasters or other causes, cost the U.S. economy billions each year according to the Department of Energy. To mediate this the act will invest $65 billion in clean energy transmission and grid. Growing issues such as water rights, a concerning issue for those living in the western United States, are also considered in the bill. Title IX in Division D is titled Western Water Infrastructure and outlines programs and projects for improving and protecting water and its availability. Later in the bill, Native American water rights are also specifically addressed. Along with water rights, water and wastewater infrastructure have their section, Division E. Telecommunications and broadband infrastructure are the focus of section F. The section focuses on the development of connectivity and building the infrastructure. The Digital Equity Act of 2021 is included within the bill and provides beginning planning and research, data collection, analysis and modeling for policy on equitable broadband infrastructure. Division G, Other Authorizations, focuses on a variety of topics from, wildfire mitigation, reforestation, recycling practices, and clean school busses. A large portion of this division focuses on Title IX, BUILD AMERICA, BUY AMERICA, which includes sections on sourcing American products, American manufacturing, and purchasing American goods. The final division, K, addresses minority business development. Sections are dedicated to public and private sectors as well as research and development. New initiatives are included as well as a section on grants to nonprofits that support minority businesses. With a continuous focus on environmental concerns, the legislation movement of the United States toward a sustainable future seems promising. 'Implementing sustainability management practices is more about the journey than the final endpoint;' said Dr. Marleen Troy, professor of environmental engineering and director of the Sustainability Management Certificate Program at Wilkes. "There are many different paths that can be taken by an organization to get to a final destination and the 'sustainability finish line: The recently passed $555 billion infrastructure bill will provide support to those on this sustainability journey;' said Troy. While the future seems promising, Perrego thinks there are always improvements, but agrees with Troy that progress is still a benefit. "It was disappointing to say the least to see that high-speed broadband is set to receive more funds than clean energy programs and that the funds for this bill were cut as a whole to begin with;' explained Perrego. "Overall I do think this bill is a start towards more sustainable infrastructure in America, however, there is a lot of work that still needs to be done and we can not stop here:' Genevieve.Frederick@wilkes.edu Graphic by: Jack Malatesta s M as Wilke Histot to the h since tE 2018.

The album has 30 tracks, including eight tracks "from the vault," which are Swift's previously unreleased songs originally made for "Red" in 2012 and is approximately 131 minutes in length. Pre-orders for the album's CDs went up for sale on Swift's website in August and the official tracklisting was released on Aug.6. Initially, "Red (Taylor's Version)" was scheduled to drop on Nov. 19, 2021 but back in September she announced the album would release a week early. This re-recorded album was a hit upon release for fans due to the nostalgia it brought them. "My favorite song off of this album is '22' because my best friend just turned 22;' said Priscilla Rey, a senior sociology major. "Normally, I would not be able to listen to music like this because of how repetitive it is but because it reminds me of my childhood I find comfort in it:' Swift, who is known for making fans guess what is next for her career, posted a video across her social media of a word puzzle for fans to solve. The puzzle ended up spelling out "Chris Stapleton;' "Phoebe Bridgers," "Babe;' "Better Man" and "All Too Well 10 Minute Version;' revealing the involvement of singersongwriters Chris Stapleton and Phoebe Bridgers on the album and three new songs. Ed Sheeran also announced his involvement with the album back in June, saying he re-recorded the song "Everything Has Changed" which was a duet with Swift on the 2012 album. "My favorite regular track has to be 'Everything Has Changed~' said Kaelin Hughes, a sophomore political science and history major. "It's an amazing song and I think it's so cool how both Ed Sheeran and the other collaborators on this album re-recorded for this album:' A teaser video was posted by Swift on Oct. 24 featuring a portion of the title track "Red (Taylor's Version);' a red dress, the "Red" ring from the album cover, red clothes and accessories. This video mimics the cover artwork of the album which depicts Swift wearing red lipstick, a beige petticoat, a burgundy fisherman's cap and a customized "Red" ring while she sits in a convertible. Swift also teased the release of a 10-minute version of the fan-favorite song, '½.11 Too Well," which was previously five minutes and 30 seconds long. On Nov. 5 Swift revealed a teaser for '½.11 Too Well," a short film based on and titled after the song that was released alongside the album. The teaser included a vintage car driving past a road surrounded by autumn leaves. The short film was written and directed by Swift and stars herself, Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien. An official poster for the film was released on Swift's social media the day before the album's debut, which was then followed by a short teaser of the track "Babe (Taylor's Version)." The short film was released on Nov. 12 alongside the album and premiered at the AMC 13 Theater in New York City. "I think the short film is a great idea:• said Hughes. "It is a great way to market the 10-minute song since the music industry has progressed and shorter songs have become more popular in recent years. Besides marketing, I know loyal fans and I are excited to see the portrayal of the story through the film. It is a great way to appeal to Taylor's loyal fan base while also trying to reel in other casual listeners. Overall, it is a super smart and amazing idea:' One particular song on the album touched hearts among many. "Ronan;' a charity single originally released in 2012, was based on a blog by Maya Thompson about her three-year-old son, Ronan, who died from cancer in 2011. Swift credited Thompson as co-writer of the song and all proceeds from sales of the single go to help fight cancer. "I think it is so sweet that Taylor Swift is giving back by donating to a cancer fighting organization," said John Hannaway, a junior pharmacy major. "There are so many uncertainties and heartaches with cancer and any little bit will help. As a cancer survivor, I appreciate the fact that so many people understand the severity of cancer and the need to find treatments and cures. If it wasn't for people like her, who donate and support cancer research, odds are I would not be in remission today:' "Ronan" is the 21st track on the album and includes a music video with pictures of Ronan before his death. Michelle Bazan, a junior psychology major, loves the fact that Swift chose to release the song in the re-recorded album. "It was already such a beautiful song with such special meaning and knowing that she put it in an album that focuses on healing and trauma makes 'Ronan' that much more special," said Bazan. "Red" expanded beyond Swift's former country genre and began exploring the world of pop music. This album immediately sparked positive reviews and success upon release. "Red" even gave Swift her first number one song on the US Billboard Hot 100 and became her first number one album in the UK. Today, "Red" is known for showcasing Swift's skill and was even placed at 99 on the list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time." "Red" was Swift's fourth studio album released by Big Machine Records in October of 2012. She ended her contract with them in 2018 when talent manager Scott Braun acquired the ownership of the master recordings of her first six studio albums. Swift made allegations of Big Machine Records blocking her from using her old music so she announced she would re-record those six albums to give her complete ownership. "I think Taylor Swift re-recording her albums is inspiring because it shows a woman fighting to own what's hers," said Maxine Bodnari, a sophomore biology major. "The re-recording of 'Red (Taylor's Version); apart from obviously sounding more mature, is more meaningful because she owns it:' To stir up excitement for the album, Swift appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers." On both shows she addressed "Red (Taylor's Version);' singers that were collaborating on the album and what song she was most excited about. Swift also appeared on "Saturday Night Live" this past Saturday. "Red (Taylor's Version)" is available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music and is also available for purchase on CD and vinyl.

Morgan.Rich@wilkes.edu Graphic by Jack Malatesta �The Beacon - November 17, 2021 Life, Arts & Entertainment Liz's Craft Corner: Colonel pride logo paint spray bottle art By Liz Cherlnka Social Media Manager This DIY Wilkes logo spray bottle art is a quick and easy craft that adds a Colonel touch to any room. There are only a few supplies needed which makes it affordable and it is a perfect craft to do while studying for pre-Thanksgiving break exams. The required supplies are blue and yellow paint, white cardstock paper, two cups, a spray bottle, a fine tip black marker and scissors. These supplies can be found at any craft store, such as Joann Fabrics or Michaels and Amazon. To begin, find the Wilkes "W" logo online and print it out. It is preferred to print it out on cardstock paper because paint will be less likely to leak through it, but printer paper will work as well. Cut out the logo and tape it down onto the middle of the white cardstock paper landscape orientation. Next, lay some newspaper down onto a flat surface like a floor because the next steps are a bit messy. To make the spray bottle art you will need colored water to spray. Grab the blue and yellow paint in Colonel colors. Put about one tablespoon of each color into two different cups. Then, add a cup of water to each of those cups. Mix the paint and the water together until the paint is fully diluted. Pour the blue paint into the spray bottle first. Spray the water into a sink until the blue starts spraying out. Lay the cardstock down onto the newspaper with the logo side up. Spray the blue paint water randomly all over the paper, making sure to surround the edges of the logo. You will want the whole paper to have splatters of paint covering it but the edges around the logo will have to be covered to make a distinct edge for when the logo paper is removed. Spraying it randomly is what will create a splatter effect on the paper. Keep this laying on the newspaper while it dries completely. This will take about an hour, so feel free to do some studying in the meantime. This craft is easy to do while multitasking. Empty the spray bottle out into a sink and rinse it out to remove the blue paint water. Pour the yellow paint water into the spray bottle. Spray the water out until the blue stops and the yellow starts spraying out. Spray the yellow paint water onto the paper the same way as the blue paint. Make sure the paint is randomly sprayed on and is around the logo as well. Overlaying the yellow onto the dried blue will not create green but will instead create a blend of both the blue and yellow. Make sure there are spots that are just yellow and just blue, as well as spots where they overlay. Allow the yellow paint to fully dry. Leave the paper on the newspaper until it is mostly dry and then transfer it to a flat surface to dry the rest of the way to prevent it from wrinkling. Feel free to do some studying during this break time as well. Once the yellow is dry, remove the logo carefully so the tape underneath does not rip the paper. The logo will become apparent now but paint will inevitably have leaked under the logo. To make the Wilkes logo more prominent, grab the black marker. Trace the outside of the logo using a ruler to get straight lines if needed. The edge of the logo will be apparent so tracing it should be simple and a quick step. Once the logo is traced on, the D IY is finished. Feel free to hang this logo decoration anywhere for a touch of Colonel Pride.

When I was younger, I was obsessed with reading the column he wrote each week. As an eighth grader, I was sure I was going to be a journalist someday, but as I grew older the certainty of my future slipped a bit and I found some other passions instead. It's funny how things come back around. Sean Schmoyer, Managing Editor: The first Beacon meeting I attended, I found the back and forth of the news and sports staff, the discussion of events by LA&E writers and the dynamic conversations between all the communications students terrifying so I planned to leave and promised myself to never come back. Not noticing my nervousness, or maybe ignoring it, Sean Schmoyer, assistant news editor at the time, asked me, "Do you want to write something this week?" I had never written a news article in my life and was running purely on the ambitions of my 14-year-old self, but agreed. I had four people, including my mom, read my article over for spelling and grammar mistakes, begging them to tell me if the article was actually any good before I submitted it that Friday. To my surprise, Sean emailed me the next week and asked, "Do you want to write another one?" Over the last two and a half years I had the unbelievable and unexpected opportunity to explore Wilkes through lectures and interviews, meeting people I never would have and learning more than I thought I could. Looking back, all I can say is thank you. First, and probably most deserved, thank you to my friends and family who listened to me talk about The Beacon more than they probably would have liked to. Second, thank you to everyone on campus who has ever answered my emails asking for comments or for an interview. An apology also goes out to you ifI emailed you again two days later (and maybe even the day after that) because I didn't get a response and I needed some information. The biggest thank you goes out to the current Beacon staff. Thank you for making Saturday, and sometimes Sunday, afternoons enjoyable and for making the work pass by easily. Thank you for making me an honorary member of the Com Department. Most of all, thank you for making my last semester at Wilkes full of new friends and really good memories. - Photo Credit: The Beacon/Arie/ Reed Genevieve.Frederick@wilkes.edu Christopher.

Editor's note: Baylee Guedes is the sibling to King's senior quarterback Tekoah Guedes. The biggest game of the year in the Barre took place on Saturday as Wilkes took on King's College for the 25th annual Mayor's Cup game at McCarthy Stadium. However, the Colonels lost to the Monarchs 34- 7 after big drives from the King's offense. "I think the rivalry is an important aspect for both schools' traditions;' said head coach Jonathan Drach. "In the grand scheme of things, it is just another game. I think that both schools want to win that game every year and it is an important game to win and we did not pull it off this week:' The Monarchs got an early lead in the first quarter with a running touchdown from Brennan Robinson after a handoff by senior quarterback Tyler Moore as well as an extra point by Kyle Prescavage. Wilkes' defense was crumbling early on as King's kept pressuring them with their offense. The Colonels struggled to get offensive drives in the first quarter as the Monarch defense was keeping the petal to the metal, forcing three punts by first-year punter Alex Orlando. King's recovered the punts, but failed to score again in the first. On Wilkes' second drive of the second quarter, senior quarterback Jose Tabora scored an 11-yard rushing touchdown for the Colonels, continuing to break his record for all-time rushing yards at Wilkes. The score remained 7-7 heading into halftime, and both Wilkes and King's knew they had to come out hard in the third quarter to obtain the Mayor's Cup. The Monarch's made a vital change as they put in senior quarterback Tekoah Guedes who completed multiple drives leading his offense to scoring position. Guedes handed off the ball to Shemar Ellis for a six-yard rushing touchdown. Tabora and the Colonel offense could not get a drive anywhere near the endzone, leading to more punts by Orlando. "We started the second half by giving them (King's) really good field position off of a misskick;' said Drach. "Then they (King's) were able to go down and score when our back was against the wall and they created some momentum:' King's capitalized on the faltering Wilkes offense and pressured the defense with another rushing touchdown by Ellis, having the scoreboard read 21-7 to end the third quarter as the extra point was good. The fourth quarter started with the Monarchs on offense. Wilkes' defense could not hold on after a minute of gameplay, leading to a 51-yard passing touchdown from Guedes to Joe Herman. The Colonel offense got the ball at the 44-yard line after Monarch's Prescavage kicked it to the 36-yard line and Wilkes' Elijah Jules returned it for 22 yards, leading to a drive that had the potential of a score for the Wilkes offense. "Overall, it was a rough day;' said Jules. "I still believe we have one of the most explosive offenses and in with a the Mq tried t passM Carchi Jason S Tabor �12 d after a g to a n from 1 e ball narch's 6-yard ned that the The Beac~m - November 17, 2021 13 Sports the Colonels to fall and lose the Mayor's Cup 34-7 due time that will be shown." Tabora started his offensive drive with a two-yard loss after a sack by the Monarch defense. The offense tried to get the ball rolling, but a pass was broken up by King's Joseph Carchio for an incomplete pass to Jason Schweizerhof. Tabora completed a pass to Schweizerhof for a four-yard gain and then Tabora rushed for a 13 yard gain. However, Wilkes was charged with a personal foul, causing a 15yard penalty and a fourth down. The Colonels tried to capitalize on their fourth and 15, but Tabora's pass was incomplete to Devin Higgins, causing a turnover on downs. King's started its fourth-quarter drive at their own 49-yard line with three first-down conversions leading to a five-yard touchdown pass from Guedes to Brandon Cohen, the scoreboard read 34-7 as the extra point was no good because of a bad snap. Wilkes looked for a change of pace as they put in junior quarterback H e a t h Hoovler, but his drive was short - lived as he had a fumble and an incomplete pass, leading to another punt for Orlando. King's let the clock run out from five minutes to zero by keeping their drive going and then ending the game on a kneel. Wilkes lost the Mayor's Cup game and the cup was presented to King's College by the mayor of WilkesBarre, George Brown. "The rivalry game meant a lot;' Dylan Walck attempted an Interception, however upon further review, It was labeled as pass Interference said Jules. "To see it end like that is very disappointing but we will bounce back. I do not want people thinking that that game was a real representation of Wilkes football, we are a better team than we portrayed:' King's Carchio was named with the game's most valuable player honor as he had the best performance for the Monarch defense. Colonel's senior linebacker Cole Jesmer was awarded with the game's most valuable player honor for Wilkes as he led the defense with 12 tackles. "It felt great to win MVP for my last game, but I do wish we came out with a win;' said Jesmer. "I got the MVP last season and doing it again this season it meant a lot because I don't know anybody who ever had a two-peat of the MVP award. The game meant everything to me and going out the way I did, it wasn't hateful." Tabora ended his football career with multiple school records including 7,653 passing yards, 622 completions, 62 of them being touchdown passes. The football season has come to a deafening end for Wilkes and they will resume gameplay next fall in hopes to win the Mayor's Cup back from their cross-town rival.

Main Street Clayton and Theresa Karambelas ----(QurVoi~---Each week, The Beacon's editorial board will take a stance on a current issue. Travis Scott is to blame for Astroworld tragedy On Nov. 5, at least nine attendees have died and many more were injured at Travis Scott's Astroworld festival in Houston due to a crowd surge. Many factors of negligence led to this undoubtedly avoidable tragedy where concert-goers were injured or killed. These nine people were expecting to go to a concert to have fun and lost their lives. Travis Scott, as the organizing artist who did not act when he saw attendees needing medical assistance, is partly responsible for the deaths and injuries. He should be charged for his participation in this tragic event. There is evidence that has since been posted on social media by attendees showing that Travis Scott saw people passing out and begging for help while he continued his performance. Security at the event was lacking, especially in aiding people who were injured and enforcing strict guidelines for entry. People called out for help to Scott, security, videographers, paramedics and other attendees, but no one listened to their calls, especially not Scott who had the power to shut it all down. No one read the warning signs. This tragedy was avoidable from the get-go, but only continuously worsened because of a lack of attention given to those at risk in the audience. Kylie Jenner, Scott's significant other, holds a very popular platform on Instagram to say the least and she was even seen posting videos from the festival with ambulances in the crowd. Not really a great public relations strategy for her brand. Their blatant ignorance of the countless people injured due to Scott's mishandling makes the issue more severe. To make matters even worse than they already were, Scott posted an apology video to his Instagram story that viewers criticized for its lack of accepting responsibility or appearing at all appropriate to the circumstances. He has even begun partnering with an online therapy company to provide one month of free therapy to everyone who attended the event as a last-ditch effort to redeem himself which was not accepted well. The sad truth is this is not the first time Scott has encouraged overcrowding, ignoring security, "raging" or has acted out against concert goers. According to CNN, he has been charged with inciting riots at previous concerts, including two documented arrests for such acts. A video of Scott went viral on social media of him encouraging the audience to beat up or gang up on a concert goer who stole his shoe while he was crowd surfing years prior. All of this evidence is building a rather solid case against him should he be charged for his actions, or rather lack of action, in the case of the Houston deaths and injuries. Even at concerts or performances where there is overstimulation from sound and/ or other factors, there are not nearly as many incidents of deaths or injuries at concerts to justify this being a risk an attendee knowingly makes. If anything, the Astroworld festival is a horrible anomaly. Artists should have their fan's safety and security as their top priority. By blatantly not caring for his fans and allowing this crisis to occur, Scott and his brand are doomed even if he somehow manages to bypass any responsibility or legal action taken against him. Several parties, including the families of those who passed or those who were injured, deserve compensation and for someone to be held responsible for their grievances. There were many people at fault in this horrible tragedy. While Travis Scott is not the sole determining factor of what occurred that night, he holds a platform like no other and should be held accountable for his role in the tragedy. @wilkesbeacon TheWilkesBeacon@wilkes.edu Media & Communication Center WIikes University Wilkes-Barre, PA 18768 Phone • (570) 408-5903 www.thewllkesbeacon.com Want to advertise in The Beacon?

JPEGMafia is known for pushing the boundaries of hip-hop and experimenting with new sounds, genres and samples. In "LP!;' JPEGMafia continues to push the limits as he showcases his bold artistry and detailed production throughout each track. "LP!" has been released in two different forms: the online edition and the offline edition. The online edition is available on most streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music. It consists of 18 tracks; 15 of the tracks are new and the final three are classic JPEGMafia hits. The offline version is available on Bandcamp and YouTube. It contains extended versions of some of the tracks and a few additional songs. Although the online version is more concise, the extended and additional songs on the offline version like "HAZARD DUTY PAY!" and "DIKEMBE!" are among my favorites. The offline version showcases raw, unfiltered artistry and emphasizes his upcoming creative freedoms as this album is his last under the constraints of his record label. "LP!" highlights JPEG Mafia's versatility as an artist in a way that is unprecedented in his discography. While he has always been experimental, he combines many different genres and sounds in a new and almost odd way. "END CREDITS!;' a song in which Peggy carries out his traditional flow over heavy drums and electric guitar, is unlike anything I have ever heard from him. Similarly, "NEMO!" stands out as he utilizes strange, distorted synths to create a song unlike any other. Not only does he jump between different genres like abstract hip-hop, rhythm and blues, pop and glitch-hop, but he also explores different topics and themes. A common theme throughout the album is his distaste towards other artists and the music industry as a whole. "REBOUND!;' for example, features an unforgiving diss at others in the industry over a cold hip-hop beat. Lyrics like "How you still up and coming? You old" and "You know we got beef and you know that I'm winning" showcase his confidence as an artist as well as his pent-up anger towards those who have crossed him. JPEGMafia's use of samples and covers continues to add to its quality and sets "LP!" apart from other albums. On "HAZARD DUTY PAY!" Peggy blends his harsh vocals with a smooth R&B song ''Ain't No Need to Worry" by The Winans and Anita Baker to twist the original vibe into something new. On "TH*TS PRAYER!;' he covers early 2000's pop hit "... Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears with a new flow over a distorted, relaxed beat. His ability to transform music and make it his own is applaudable. Although I enjoyed every track, ''ARE U HAPPY?" and "BMT!" stood out to me the most on first listen and quickly became my favorites. "ARE YOU HAPPY?" begins with a thoughtprovoking sample from "Transition" by Galaxy 2 Galaxy: ''Am I happy with the way my life is going? Do I have a life? Or am I just living?" While the listener is left to reflect on these lyrics, Peggy begins his verse over an alluring and almost surreal melody. The use of the sample throughout the rest of the song combined with the beautiful synthesizers highlights Peggy's impressive production. "BMT!" also holds its ground as one of my favorite tracks. It begins with isolated, compressed military march chants before JPEGMafia adds a beat and jumps into a fast-paced and high-energy verse that continues throughout the duration of the song. All elements work harmoniously together to create yet another song unlike any I have ever heard. Whether it's a smooth track like "DAM! DAM! DAM!" and "THE GHOST OF RANKING DREAD!" or an energetic track like "DIRTY!" and "TIRED, NERVOUS & BROKE!," it quickly becomes evident that JPEGMafia is not afraid of taking risks. His continuous abstract genre-bending and use of samples and new sounds makes him stand out from expectations. A true artist ventures from the norm and creates something of his own, and "LP!", with all its twists and turns, proves JPEGMafia is capable of such artistry. @wilkesbeacon Sydney.Allabaugh@wilkes.edu Conspiracy theories: the good, the bad and the unbelievable By Lindsey Scorey Staff Writer cethe herinka es. The 21st century has been a time of incredible change and rather unimaginable events. In order to explain the sometimes inexplicable, many people have turned to conspiracy theories to find answers - even possibly outlandish ones. Britannica defines a conspiracy theory as "an attempt to explain harmful or tragic events as the result of the actions of a small powerful group." In this definition we see that conspiracies are a response to the things we simply cannot put our fingers on or rationally explain and justify. We as humans like to have complex answers to complex issues, because the alternative seems too easy, too boring even. It is hard to conceptualize that Area 51 could just be a playground for government reactive work or that thousands of people died because of planes being hijacked more easily than we would like it to appear. But when one theory takes off, it starts making us question everything we ever knew about a topic. Many large scale theories that have gained momentum to buy into. Hughes notes a theory he are because people continuously add finds to be harmless is the notion that legitimate or non legitimate information Walt Disney's head is frozen somewhere to them that make them more believable. in the parks. As he suggests, it is not While some theories can be harmless hurting anyone in the process. As it stays and speculative, many actually risk the unproven, it exists as a mere thought or livelihoods of day-to-day people. potential mystery. James Hughes, senior neuroscience However, many conspiracies go awry, student, believes that there are conspiracy as they are based on dangerous belief theories that are all in good fun, but that systems or stereotypes. When these ideas there are many that can are brought to fruition it elicit fear-mongering ,.,,,,..::::;......,..., can mean destruction lies in techniques in the process wake. of expansion.

People their actions to hurt were seriously injured and others if they feel they are killed," said Hughes. "This acting in immediate selfis the comparison between defense;' he said. "Some a harmless conspiracy and of the greatest atrocities one that threatens public in modern history have safety. So while conspiracies arisen based on rumors. are not inherently dangerous, Conspiracy theories that merely exist as there is a scale depending on how far the a point of conversation are harmless, but participants are willing to act on their when action is taken on a theory is the beliefs:• real danger:' The line between thought and action Of course, some theories can be fun being crossed is a solid threshold for defining what conspiracies can be potentially dangerous. Some conspirators take it so far as to question scientific fact. Jamie Sayre, P2 student, believes that conspiracy theories can interfere with rational thought processes. "People are comfortable with patterns and tend to draw conclusions even when it may be a stretch in hopes to explain things they do not understand;' she said. ''As you dive deeper into the conspiracy and track its connections, it is easy to get sucked in and lose rational thought:' Sayre said she has seen conspiracies that have their potential believability, but that she seeks available facts and evidence behind a theory in order to make sure it makes sense and can be rationalized. So while we can have our theories be all in good fun, we must make sure we are being rational and considerate of all parties involved in a particular conspiracy theory. Sometimes the power we hold as large populations to build momentum on a theory can be greater than the actual problem we are trying to solve or explain.

Some think the film is a stunning tribute to the legacy of Diana, Princess of Wales, while others believe it to be a mockery of her name. "Spencer" follows the royal family, specifically Diana, as they partake in their annual Christmas traditions. During this time, Diana decides to leave Prince Charles. Although the plot synopsis sounds uneventful, "Spencer" was one of the most captivating films that I have ever seen. Going into this film, I had little knowledge of the royal family besides what I had heard about Diana and even this und~rstanding was limited. Despite my lack of previous knowledge of the history and dynamics of the royal family, I was immediately engrossed in the story. I never once felt as if I did not understand what was unfolding before me, although I did have to ask my friend some background questions about the royal family. Undoubtedly the biggest success of the film for me was Kristen Stewart's performance. I wish I could use this entire review to talk about the way she naturally and effortlessly embodied Diana. She was phenomenal in every way; I could not get enough of her. Prior to seeing this film, I was concerned that I would not be able to completely suspend my disbelief, especially considering that I immediately think of the "Twilight" series whenever I think of Kristen Stewart. "Spencer" allowed Stewart the opportunity to obliterate the notion that she will only ever be known as "the horrible actress from the vampire movie". What I saw from Stewart was raw, vulnerable acting like I have not seen from even some of the best actors in the industry. The role of Diana was cast perfectly, but so was the rest of the royal family. Each member looked strikingly like their real-life counterparts, which was an impressive feat. Had the cast looked different from the monarchy, it would have taken something essential away from the film, so the impeccable casting is something to be celebrated. The characterization of the royal family was as spot-on as the casting. Each character was distinct and thought out; there were no "fluff" characters that did not advance the storyline. No character existed merely to exist. Although I enjoyed seeing the story unfold through Diana's perspective, the other characters in the story granted me what I was lacking from Diana. I cannot stress this enough: everything worked extremely well in this film. What one aspect lacked, another made up for. I am a huge fan of camera angles and shot sequences. To me, these can make or break a film. Each shot was in some way rejuvenating and striking at the same time. There was a specific sequence in the last act that was so well done that it gave me chills. "Spencer" is a film made for the big screen. Each angle and shot was made with the largeness of the theater's screen in mind and the film certainly used that wisely. The only aspect of "Spencer" that I did not enjoy was the serious lack of action. The conflict was there, but we did not receive any actual motion until the final act of the film. I do want to point out that this did not affect the pacing of the film. Although there was little motion, the story did not drag. Rather, I was extremely invested despite the lack of action, which speaks to the success of the other aspects of the film. Again, "Spencer" covers its bases. Overall, I rate "Spencer" 4.5 out of 5 stars. It was almost perfect for me. I think had I had gone into it knowing more about the royal family, it could have easily been a perfect score. However, for someone who does not like period pieces or historical films, "Spencer" is on my "Greatest of All Times" list, so do with this information what you will. In the film, Diana wonders what people will say of her in history books, and she worries about the legacy she will leave behind her. "Spencer" is certainly a thoughtfully substantial addition to this legacy. You can watch "Spencer" in theaters across the country.

I have never been busier than I have been these past couple of months. Now, believe me, I love everything I am doing and feel so lucky to have these opportunities. But. .. I'm tired. Every year I look forward to daylight saving time ending so I can get a coveted extra hour of sleep. That extra hour of rest is probably the first thing that comes to mind when it is time to set the clocks back an hour every fall. And this year it was especially welcome. I would say that the first week after we set the clocks back, which was this past week, is probably the time I feel the most _well-rested out of the whole year. I am actually excited to wake up, and maybe its because I'm a hypochondriac, but I feel I get more things done. Perhaps this has something to do with it being lighter in the morning. I absolutely hate getting up when it is still ark out. I usually hate waking up before I need to, but I absolutely adore waking up, glancing at the clock, and seeing I still have an hour before I have to get up. That burst of serotonin lasts me the whole day. I am sure many people feel the same way as I do. I also bet I am only going to cherish this extra hour of sleep more and more every year as I get older. Now, like literally everything else in life, I do believe that there is a downside to daylight saving time ending. I bet you all know what I am going to say: the fact that it gets dark at 5 p.m. Actually, saying it gets dark at 5 p.m. is generous. The day I'm writing this, I'm sure the sun was fully set while it was still 4 p.m. Every single day since then, it seems to get dark earlier and earlier. This hugely contrasts what I have said previously, about having so much more energy, but when it gets dark out so early in the dark, any excess of energy I may have leaves my body. As soon as the sun sets, I want to be sitting at home watching Netflix. I do not want to be at school, driving on the highway or even be out with friends. I tend to get a rush off of canceling plans all year long, but if you want to meet up with me after 3 p.m. in the winter, forget about it. It's not happening. I guess as humans we are programmed to get tired and want to sleep when the sun is not in the sky. Maybe it is because it gets colder out when the sun goes down that makes me want to go into hibernation. Maybe it is a more personal thing. Unlike many people my age, I do not like to be out at night, if I can help. I like to be tucked away at home instead. Another downside to changing the clocks is I'm always second-guessing if it is displaying the correct time. I will drive myself crazy thinking I am late or have the wrong time. I will be totally honest and say I do not really understand why we do it in the first place. I know it has something to do with the farmers, but that's about it. In conclusion, I love the end of daylight saving time because we get an extra hour of sleep, but also hate it because it gets dark so early. It is kind of a catch 22. Maybe I am just a difficult person. In the spring, I am sure I could write an article complaining about the start of daylight saving time. So, stay tuned, I guess. @wilkesbeacon Rudy.Urenovich@wilkes.edu �8 The Beacon - November 17, 2021 Opinion 17 - Dean's Deep Dives: Lil Peep outcast, voice of the voiceless By Dean Bowen Staff Writer Among the endless cast of characters that rise and fall in the mainstream, it is hard to find a story more tragic than Lil Peep. Catapulting to fame at only 20 years old, Peep's fusion of hip hop and punk struck a chord with his fanbase, amassing a cult following that lasts to this day. Peep's rise and catastrophic fall occurred over a period of barely two years. In those two years, he released a staggering amount of music, reinventing a genre and leaving classics in his wake. While he has gained large amounts of esteem posthumously for hits such as "Star Shopping;' "Witchblades" and "White Tee:' there is a wealth of good music in his discography equally deserving of acclaim. It is through the following list that I will highlight some of these tracks while giving a glimpse into the story of one of the biggest "What If?''s in modern music. 1. "Five Degrees" - "Lil Peep; Part I" A large aspect of Peep's early lyrical content and disposition was his unabated hatred for his hometown; Long Island, New York. "Five Degrees" is one such inspired track, with Peep decrying those who made him feel alone in this place. Over a haunting guitar instrumental, Peep boldly proclaims that not only will he escape this beach-themed hell he's found himself in, but he will do it using the same parts of himself that made him hated by its residents in the first place. Peep additionally explains his chosen name, giving credit to his much-esteemed mother. 2. "Live Forever" - "Live Forever" Upon escaping New York and moving to Los Angeles, Peep then released the "Live Forever" EP in December of 2015, mere months after "Lil Peep; Part 1': The title track especially stood out. Honing his trademark bravado, Peep ruminates over his potential for fame over a sample-heavy and hardhitting instrumental produced by frequent collaborator Brobak. It was with this EP and the shortly following release of "Star Shopping" that Peep began to make inroads with the California underground rap scene, setting him up for a profound following year. 3. "Beat It" - "CALIFORNIA GIRLS" Peep began his career-defining year in 2016 with "CALIFORNIA GIRLS;' a collaboration EP with producer and close friend Nedarb. As a sign of the sound to come, "Beat It" was a refinement of Peep's near unparalleled ability at making heartbreak ballads. As he laments lost love and the effects of his obsession with the subject of the track, the commanding and somber piano-heavy instrumental sets a tone debut studio album, Peep released "Come Over When You're Sober, pt.I" on August 15, 2017. The entire album is a classic, and it thrust Peep further into the mainstream spotlight. "Problems" is no exception, with Peep adopting his trademark grim delivery over a bass-heavy guitar instrumental. It was with this album that Peep established himself as a major rising star, making it all the more tragic that he would suffer a fatal overdose two months after its release. - 9. "IDGAF" - "Come Over When You're Sober, pt. 2" Peep's death sent shockwaves through the music world, exposing a system that abuses underground performers under the pretense of making them famous. "IDGAF" is one final gasp of rebellion from Peep as he simultaneously decries his mistakes and refuses to accept their consequences. Layering themes of sex, death and ambivalence over a sample of Red Hot Chili Pepper's "Californication;' "IDGAF" is a standout in an impressive string of posthumous releases. 10. "Belgium'' SINNER'' undeniable in its emotion. 4. "Come Around" - "Vertigo" Peep's drug abuse was a recurring theme throughout his career, providing both inspiration for his music and endless concern for his well-being. Opening "Come Around" with a chillingly foreboding statement of "I can't feel that much sometimes, these drugs gon' kill me:' the track serves as a cautionary tale against a habit that plagued Peep's life. "Vertigo" added to Peep's growing momentum as an artist, being released a mere two days after "CALIFORNIA GIRLS:' It was these two EPs that pushed Peep's musical ability even further, leading to two superb albums released later in 2016. 5. "Nineteen" - "crybaby" Now leaning into an unapologetically depressing sound, Peep continued this monumental year with "crybaby;' released in June. Highlighted by a massive hit in "White Tee:' this album was a solidification of Peep's presence and sound. "Nineteen" is a personal favorite, serving as his quintessential heartbreak serenade. Channeling the raw yet subdued emotion that has captivated listeners for years, Peep tells the story of a love lost to his bad decisions. It was "Nineteen'' that got Peep his first record deal, kicking off a rise in musical refinement corresponding with a fall in his personal wellbeing. 6. "OMFG" - "HELLBOY" Pivoting in sound and capping off ..a year both musically and personally transformative, Peep released "HELLBOY" 3 months later, in September. The raging and emotive "OMFG" was a standout track from this album laden with hits. Disguising a cry for help as a punk rock banger, Peep belts his heart out about his suicidal tendencies and the minimal impact his newfound fame has had on reducing them. This was a recurring theme throughout the last year of his life, with fame and fortune only further complicating his already distraught mental state. 7. "Your Favorite Dress" - "CASTLES II" Peep did, however, begin to find solace in the whirlwind his life had become. This came in the form of a close friend and frequent collaborator Lil Tracy, with the two collaborating on multiple of Peep's most popular songs. Peep's mother has stated numerous times that Tracy was one of the only people she trusted in his rapidly growing inner circle, with the two having stuck together through homelessness and numerous drug overdoses throughout their friendship. "Your Favorite Dress" is a solid display of the pair's musical chemistry, as they continued their run as an unstoppable duo. 8. "Problems" - "Come Over When You're Sober, pt. I" Finally feeling ready to drop a proper - "GOTH ANGEL Peep's tour in Europe immediately prior to his passing was a large contributing factor to his spiral and eventual overdose. "Belgium" depicts his declining mental state as Peep speaks directly to a far-away lover. The final verse is especially haunting considering the circumstances, with Peep reflecting upon how he hasn't seen any of his friends in months due to the tour, noting the detrimental impact that had on his mental health. Everybody's Everything Legacies are a complicated thing. Everybody wants to leave one behind, whether it is through accomplishment or memory. In just over two years, Lil Peep managed to do exactly what he intended to do: leave his mark on the world by being nothing less than himself. He inspired countless people worldwide to do the same, myself included. In the process, he left behind a discography unmatched in emotion and authenticity. The impact of his music is perhaps best described by the person who knew him best: his mother. Speaking at his funeral, she said of her beloved son: "My sweet little Peeper is gone, but he has surely left us a lot of wonderful material to review and consider. He has left me with new people to know. I am so proud of him.

It is the 26th installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is part of the studio's phase four set of films. The movie's original release date was Nov. 6, 2020, but was postponed due to COVID-19. However, "Eternals" was not worth the year-long wait. The movie took place after the events of "Avengers: Endgame;' when everyone was suffering from the five-year gap that took place due to Thanos' snap. The Eternals were living on Earth for 7,000 years posing as humans, but the reemergence of the deviants forced them out of the shadows. The Eternals thought that all the deviants were dead, but it turned out that they were just frozen under the ice. I am an avid Marvel fan. I have seen almost all MCU movies more than once. "Eternals" does not even compare to any of the other MCU movies. In all honesty, I nearly fell asleep while watching this movie. There is so much packed into the movie that makes it boring. The movie is two hours and 37 minutes long and it just felt exhausting. "Eternals" was filled with plot twist after plot twist after plot twist. It was hard to understand who the main villain was. It was interesting, but also confusing. "Eternals" showed many flashbacks to certain time periods, but as I said, it was sometimes hard to keep up. The CGI in this film was phenomenal. In the trailer alone, you can truly see the damage and severity of the emergence. You can see the chaotic water and the breaking of the ground. The emergence is described as the birth of a new celestial and with that comes the death of a world. The visual effects when each Eternal uses their power is unlike anything we have ever seen from the MCU. They all use cosmic energy, which connects them all. Because of this, each power they have is always the same golden yellow visual effect that we see. The diversity in this movie is impeccable. The Eternals are a diverse group of people with a variety of dialects and ethnicities, including Black, Latino, East Asian, Indian subcontinent, and Irish. Makkari, who has super-speed, is Marvel's first deaf superhero (she is played by deaf actress Lauren Ridloff). Phastos, played by Brian Tyree Henry, is the first LGBTQ+ superhero in the MCU. In the first week, Marvel's "Eternals" earned an estimated $161.7 million at the global box office, with $71 million corning from domestic gross. Rotten Tomatoes rated "Eternals" at 48 percent. To put this in perspective, this is the worst rating for an MCU film in the history of the franchise. " I personally believe it does not deserve this rating. While yes it was not the best movie, there are still worse movies. Iron Man 2 and Thor: The Dark World is much worse:' For as much negativity surrounds this movie, there are still so many good aspects of "Eternals:' After all, it is an MCU movie. The ending to this movie is amazing and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Every single actor was breathtaking. They own their characters. We want to hear your voice!

Opinion Editor: Breanna.Ebisch@wilkes.edu Close to classes These actors make you fall in love with them and it is heartbreaking for what they endure. I suggest that you watch this film if you enjoy Marvel and are a true fan of the MCU. But, I do recommend that you wait for this movie to release on Disney Plus. This movie is not the best, but still worth watching. This movie is vital to phase four of the MCU and will play a major role in the future of the MCU. @wilkesbeacon Zara.Lantzman@wilkes.edu �ding the f 2021 is l provides research, modeling Jroadband orizations, >ics from, orestation, m school is division ~MERICA, includes l products, mrchasing addresses t.

Sports Editor A matchup that has been brewing since February 2020 between the Colonels and the Monarchs finally happened on Friday as Wilkes took charge and beat King's 5-4. Historically, Wilkes has taken King's to the house, beating them consecutively since the Colonel program started in 2018. "This rivalry is for real and we knew we were going to face a better team and we definitely saw that right away;' said head coach Tyler Hynes. Fans were loud, tensions were high and skates were ready to hit the ice. Both ~earns ~ere ready to claim the title of the Barre. In the first period, Wilkes did not let King's interfere with their title of "Wilkes-Barre" as they started off with a goal from senior forward Tyler Dill at the 8:02 mark. "Some nights the puck just finds a way to go in the net and it always feels good when it does;' said Dill. There were multiple faceoffs in the first period, mostly won by Wilkes as the faceoff team was trying to get every opportunity to get the puck in the net. The Monarchs remained scoreless in the first due to seven saves by junior goaltender Michael Paterson-Jones. The Colonel's defense was able to back Paterson-Jones up. King's was able to put a mark on the scoreboard within a minute into the second period as they capitalized on a power play. Jakub Viedemann scored a goal of his own, and moments later senior defender Scott Mueller put one in the net assisted by senior forwards Nick Fea and Donald Flynn. "We like to play fast and strong:' said Mueller. "It always feels great to contribute in any way possible and Nick Fea made a great play to me in the middle of the zone for a goal." Dill followed Mueller's score with a goal of his own at the 7:45 mark of the period with an assist by graduate student Taylor Brierley. Three minutes later, Dill got a sharp pass from senior defender Dylan Kuipers for another goal for the Colonels. The Monarchs answered with a goal by Tyler Blanchard to end the second period with a score of 4-2. The third period consisted of a goal by junior forward Nick Godfrey, assisted by Fea and Tyson Araujo. "Our mindset was just to play our brand of hockey;' said Godfrey. "It was a huge relief to be quite honest. Any way that I can help the team and contribute as much as possible is always a great feeling:' Wilkes' defense let up two goals to King's in the third, making the score 5-4. The sudden tight score of the game was unnerving for Hynes as he needed to lead his team to a win and for the title of the "Barre:' "We were trying to hold on:' said Hynes. "King's took it to us in the third and we just did not have any response." Wilkes was able to hold out and gain the 5-4 win due to early scores by Dill, Mueller, and Godfrey. "Dill was really good;' said Hynes. "Big players play big in big games and he seemed like the only big guy that we had going. We are going to have to be better if we want to win another game against King's because that is a team that is hungry and getting better." The next Colonel matchup will be on Nov. 14 as Wilkes will travel to Albertus Magnus College. The battle of the "Barre" rivalry will continue as Wilkes will host King's College on Jan. 28.

Sports Editor A matchup that has been brewing since February 2020 between the Colonels and the Monarchs finally happened on Friday as Wilkes took charge and beat King's 5-4. Historically, Wilkes has taken King's to the house, beating them consecutively since the Colonel program started in 2018. "This rivalry is for real and we knew we were going to face a better team and we definitely saw that right away;' said head coach Tyler Hynes. Fans were loud, tensions were high and skates were ready to hit the ice. Both ~earns ~ere ready to claim the title of the Barre. In the first period, Wilkes did not let King's interfere with their title of "Wilkes-Barre" as they started off with a goal from senior forward Tyler Dill at the 8:02 mark. "Some nights the puck just finds a way to go in the net and it always feels good when it does:' said Dill. There were multiple faceoffs in the first period, mostly won by Wilkes as the faceoff team was trying to get every opportunity to get the puck in the net.

Dill followed Mueller's score with a goal of his own at the 7:45 mark of the period with an assist by graduate student Taylor Brierley.

The Colonels were defeated for the first time this season by a score of 65-42. Wilkes was without its returning leader scorer, junior guard Brenna Babcock, as she is dealing with a knee injury. The Colonels needed someone to fill her shoes as they took on an experienced Widener team. "You have to be prepared for stuff like that to happen;' said head coach Tara Macciocco. "We need that next man up mentality, and need people to step up and take on that role." Luckily for the Colonels, fellow junior guard Katelyn Kinczel stepped up big right out of the gates. She led Wilkes with eight first quarter points, including two three-pointers, as they kept pace with the Pride early on. "I think my confidence shooting the ball comes down to practicing a lot and working on the fundamentals;' said Kinczel. "In practice, we do a lot of game-like scenarios, and I know I have my teammates that are always there supporting me:' In the second quarter, the two teams went back and forth at a frantic pace, as they each tried to find a little separation. Sophomore guard Julia Marino really began to find her footing as she controlled the offense for the Colonels while The Beacon/Ariel Reed Julla Marino grips the ball as she rips It through several defenders and drives It to the hoop. pressuring the opposing ball handler. "I just want to do whatever I can for my team and help us win," said Marino. "If that's me being more vocal for everyone, and stepping up in a leadership role, then that's what I'm going to do:' Just as the Colonels seemed poised to go into the locker room on a roll, Marino suffered an ankle injury, causing her to miss the rest of the first half Widener was able to get a couple of easy points, and now had a 33-26 lead at halftime. The Pride continued to ride the momentum they got late in the second quarter, as they dominated the third. Wilkes lost all of its rhythm on offense, which allowed Widener to get some easy buckets on the fast break and in the paint. "I think the majority of their scores came off of transition baskets and offensive rebounds;' said Macciocco. "We are a small team. We've got to do a better job of putting a body on someone. And not just putting a body on someone, but go get the ball." Whenever Widener did miss a shot, the ball always seemed to end up right back in their hands. They dominated the offensive glass all afternoon long, negating any chance the Colonels had in getting back in the game. Many of the Pride points in the third quarter came off second chances, as they won the quarter 17-5 to give them a big lead going into the final quarter. "In the first half, we kept a higher intensity, where in the second half, we let a few made baskets on their end to lower our intensity;' said Kinczel. "We just have to keep that consistent intensity throughout the whole game:• Wilkes tried to fight their way back into the game in the fourth quarter, but were unable to capitalize on the offensive end. Widener used its length and quickness to hamper the Colonel offense, as they shot just 24 percent as a team on the day. "They are a very good basketball team;' said Macciocco about Widener. "I thought we hung with them for 20-25 minutes or so, but against a team like that you have to play 40 minutes:' The Colonels will look to get back into the win column on Saturday as they take on Marywood University in the Cross County Challenge at Scranton University. @wilkesbeacon Jason.Eberhart@wilkes.edu �4 around ng," said dent in t of the efinitely Right as I and first m home ily.

However, the team fell 31-3 to The College of New Jersey. "We enjoyed wrestling in front of a great energetic crowd;' said head coach Jon Laudenslager. "We may have not gotten the outcome we wanted, but this was the first dual meet in a Wilkes singlet for seven of the 10 guys we put on the mat tonight. TCNJ did a great job and had a very veteran line-up with many years of experience on us. We were right in many matches, now we just need to find a way to turn many almost upsets into victories:' The Colonels started off hot with a win in the 125-pounds bout where local firstyear Austin Fashouer won handily giving Wilkes the early 3-0 lead. From there, the Lions commandeered the match and won out the next eight matchups. Sophomore Michael Richardson at the 141-pounds match was close to getting the Colonels another victory as he held a 4-3 lead at the end of the second period, but TCNJ snagged a penalty to tie the score and send it to overtime. Unfortunately, TCNJ scored a takedown in the sudden death frame to win the match. "We didn't get it done or the outcome we hoped for:' said Richardson. "There is always a spot for improvement for myself and the other wrestlers. We have a whole The Beacon/Ariel Reed First-year Cameron Butka holds steady In referee's position where he calculated his next move to put points on the board. season ahead of us, we're not going to let one match define what team we are:' Wilkes had another glimmer of hope to get points on the board with the 165-pounds bout when junior James Geiger was tied 3-3 with TCNJ's Matt Surich at the end of the first period. Geiger ended up falling behind two points in the second frame. Heading into the third, Geiger scored on an escape to close the point differential to two. He attempted a takedown, but his efforts were unsuccessful and he fell 6-4. Heading towards the closing of the match, first-year Cameron Butka wrestled the 197-pounds bout. Butka and TCNJ's Quinn Haddad traded points back-andforth throughout the match-up. Haddad tied the match at eight points with 40 seconds remaining on the clock. Butka attempted a takedown within the final 30 seconds of the frame to get the win, but he could not complete the move and ended up falling in that bout. "During my final moments, my goal was to put everything I had into getting one more takedown to secure the win;' said Butka. "Despite my best efforts, I fell short of my goal. However, there is always room to improve, and I'll be even more prepared for my next time on the mat." Laudenslager spoke about how proud he was of Butka's effort since he is only a firstyear, going against a top-ten wrestler, who has gone to the NCAA tournament, and this was his first dual match proves that his career with Wilkes is going to be great. "Overall, we certainly hate losing, but we put some good things together in matches against a top 15 team;' said Laudenslager. "With so many new guys in our line-up it's nice to see the ability to contend so early in the season against some well-seasoned college wrestlers. We are still finding out our own strengths and weaknesses on the mat, so once we can put full matches together, I expect we can win many of the matches we saw tonight:' The Colonels return to the mat tonight against Elizabeth College at 7 p.m. -- @wilkesbeacon Ariel.Reed@wilkes.edu r ,,.. �.J The Beacon - November 17, 2021 Sports e of the Week Nov. 3 to Nov. 10 : Fea went +7 with five points on three uring the week.

On June 26, 1947, Bucknell University Junior College came to an end and Wilkes College received its charter as a four-year, coeducational, liberal arts college. The College has grown to its current enrollment of approximately 2,000 full-time day students and 500 part-time evening school students and over 300 graduate students. From its inception the College has been dedicated to these twin goals - a sound and stimulating intellectual experience for students and a program of service to the community. It was inevitable that the new college should be non-sectarian, for its purpose was to serve all students equally and its supporters wished the College to integrate itself with all constructive efforts in the community. It was believed that these ends could be served best by an independent college that was interdenominational in its influence and non-denominational in its control. With responsibility came a pressing desire to strengthen the work of the faculty, united in their belief that the intellectual and spiritual resources of the student are vigorous where the creative mind is free. A college that wishes to serve all groups requires both a definite philosophy and a working policy. Wilkes College has been guided by the thought that unity in our community, our nation, and our world requires not only great vision but warm understanding of peoples. In its small circle Wilkes College brings together students of many faiths, backgrounds, and countries. It encourages them to maintain their convictions and their loyalties. It also encourages them to create friendships based upon respect for differences, and to adhere to those ideals that create unity and good will amidst diversity. ACCREDITATION Wilkes College is accredited by the Department -0f Education of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. In addition to the total program accreditation certain special areas are recognized by professional societies. The Chemistry curriculum is approved by the American Chemical Society. The baccalaureate program in nursing is fully approved by the Pennsylvania State Board of Nurse Examiners and the Department of . '-1 �Page7 Nursing is also a member of the Council of Baccalureate and Higher Degree Programs, National League for Nursing. Graduates of this program are eligible for admission to the examination for licensure to practice professional nursing in any state. THE COLLEGE COMMUNITY The College is a member of the Middle Atlantic Collegiate Athletic Conference, the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference, the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women, the Eastern Association for Intercollegiate Athletics, Northeastern Pennsylvania Intercollegiate Athletic Association for College Women, and the Susquehanna Field Hockey Association. STUDENT LIFE POLICY An active Student Government and numerous campus clubs and organizations provide a structure of activities for student life outside of the classroom. An Inter-Dormitory Council and Commuter Council plan and coordinate activities for on-campus and off-campus students as well. It is College policy that all campus organizations be open to all students; consequently, groups that are exclusive do not exist. All student groups work in cooperation with faculty advisors and deans. In addition to the curricular and co-curricular activities of particular organizations, a number of all-campus events are held each year. Parents' Day, Homecoming, Winter Carnival, and the Spring Weekend are typical of the social and cultural events which are regarded as important in the development of an active and involved student body. Wilkes College, in both its official and unofficial capacities, views itself as sharing a vital and mutually-enriching partnership with both the Wilkes-Barre and Northeastern Pennsylvania communities. The College also offers an outlet for students interested in developing their communications skills. Students publish the Beacon, a weekly newspaper; the Manuscript, a journal of art, poetry, and fiction; and the Amnico/a, the College annual. The College also maintains an FM radio station, WCLH, which is operated by students and broadcasts daily throughout the Wyoming Valley. Other student activities include the Theater, the College Band, College Choruses, numerous brass, woodwind, and percussion ensembles, Madrigal Singers, and an active intercollegiate forensics and debate organization. ATHLETICS The College and The Community The College has long recognized that its growth was related to the economic and social development of the community and, therefore, it has sought actively and enthusiastically to participate in every effort for community betterment. INSTITUTE OF REGIONAL AFFAIRS The Institute of Regional Affairs has been established by Wilkes as a multi-purpose organization which views regional problems as belonging to no single academic discipline, but rather as opportunities for multi-disciplinary community involvement. Its resources include not only the College faculty, but also those experts in the region who can lend their talents to the solution of various of the region's problems. Its four-fold purpose is: education and training, community information, research, and consultation. The College views men's and women's athletics as an integral part of the activity program. An active intramural sports program is maintained each year, and the College also schedules intercollegiate athletic ~ontests in eleven varsity sports: football, baseball, basketball, soccer, golf, tennis, swimming, wrestling, cross-country, field hockey, and lacrosse. Among the activities of the Institute of Regional Affairs are included: a management training program under which special classes are organized for personnel in industry, commerce, and banking; individually-designed programs for members of labor unions; a Municipal Government Program which offers in-service training activities for local government officials; and a Research Center which is available to faculty, administration, and alumni. One of the highlights of the athletic year is the Wilkes Open Wrestling Championship. This annual tournament attracts athletes from over sixty colleges, athletic clubs, and YMCA's throughout the United States. The tournament, the largest in the country, has the record for the greatest number of entries. As a result of the support and the success of the College's Institute of Regional Affairs, an independent Economic Development Council has also been established to serve Northeastern Pennsylvania. The College has supported a number of programs in their infancy and helped them become independent, community activities. �Page8 Page9 EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT CENTER By mutual agreement with the Pennsylvania Department of Education, an arm of the Educational Development Center has been established on the campus of Wilkes College. The Center located at Wilkes has as its statewide mission the development of curriculum models in various disciplines for elementary and secondary education. At the local level the center has helped to plan the functions of the local intermediate unit and continues to work closely with the unit to provide service to school districts in the area. Policies and Objectives SIGMA XI Sigma Xi, the Scientific Research Society of North America, has established a local affiliate on the Wilkes College campus. The Club serves as a forum for cooperation and exchange of ideas among research-oriented scientists in the area. The Club welcomes as members local collegiate, professional, and industrial researchers engaged in original scientific investigations. Admissions Registration Tuition, Fees, and Expenses CULTURAL ACTIVITIES Wilkes also plays an active role in the support and development of various cultural activities throughout the region.

Secondary school training is desirable but not necessary, provided the student is qualified to follow such special courses of instruction. Counseling The guiding principle of all Wilkes counseling is to encourage students to discover their own abilities and potential and to assist them in making sound, independent decisions. FRESHMAN ORIENTATION PROGRAM The transition from the directed work of the high school to the independent and more intensive work of the College occasionally causes difficulty. Several days during the summer and at the beginning of the term are, therefore, set aside to assist freshmen in planning their academic programs. During this period, new students may take aptitude and interest tests. New students are given an opportunity to become acquainted with one another and to learn about the College, the curriculum, and the student activities. STUDENT ADVISEMENT Students sometimes need guidance in resolving personal, social, and academic difficulties. Since a student's physical and mental health affect his studies and his grades, he is encouraged throughout his college career to consult with his classroom instructors, his faculty advisor, the deans, or the department chairmen concerning his scholastic progress.

Financial Assistance To provide assistance for those who need financial help, the College receives substantial gifts from friends. These gifts provide scholarship aid to those who are already making every effort to help themselves. In accepting any form of aid from the College the students accept an obligation to: 1. Maintain a good scholastic record. 2. Exert a constructive influence in the College and the community. 3. Participate constructively in an all-college activity of their own choice. Inquiries and applications regarding all financial assistance programs should be initiated with the Director of Financial Aid. Scholarships A number of scholarships are awarded without regard to financial need to students of outstanding achievement. High school seniors who desire to be considered for a scholarship should apply in writing to the Dean of Admissions at the time of application for admission. Intercollegiate athletics are introduced for the benefit of all students and in consequence athletes receive the same consideration in admissions and in the awarding of scholarships that is given to other students. �Financial Aid REQUIREMENTS 1. Students must be admitted to the College before their applications for financial aid will be considered. 2. The primary responsibility for financing the cost of education rests with the student and his family. Consequently, financial aid will be granted only after they have made every reasonable effort to finance as large a portion of the student's education as possible. When such support is lacking, the College will seek to develop with the student a plan whereby his education may be continued through work, loans, and scholarships. 3. Every applicant for financial aid shall submit confidential information pertaining to the applicant's financial needs and his record of achievement. 4. Aid awarded to a student from sources outside the College must be reported to the College by the student. All such aid shall be taken into consideration to insure the most equitable distribution of funds. When necessary, a financial aid package awarded by the College may be adjusted in light of aid awarded by outside sources. 5. Financial aid will be forfeited if the student at any time carries fewer hours than are normal for his course of study. 6. Financial aid is awarded for a one-year period. Aid will be renewed upon request, however, provided the request is supported by a good academic record, evidence of continued need, and constructive participation in at least one all-college activity of the student's choice. 7. The amount of the aid is confidential. Any breach of this confidence shall terminate the award. INSTRUCTIONS TO THE APPLICANT 1.

Notification of action by the Committee is sent immediately. Grant-In-Aid WILKES SCHOLARSHIPS To assist qualified students, friends and alumni support a substantial scholarship fund that enables the College to more adequately serve its students. Wilkes College is dedicated to the belief that no student who is eligible for admission to the College should be denied the chance to begin a college education, nor forced to withdraw after matriculation for purely financial reasons. Wilkes Scholarship grants are available to students with good records of achievement and performance in high school or college who cannot finance fully the cost of their education. These funds, combined with those furnished by the State and Federal Governments, are offered to students in packages consisting usually of grants, loans, and work. BASIC EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS Federal Grants ranging from $200 to $1,400 are available to those students who demonstrate need. The amount of individual grants are related directly to the student's eligibility index as determined by the Basic Grants Program and cost of education. Application forms are available at any Federal Office or the College Financial Aid Office. 2. Students requesting financial aid shall indicate this in the appropriate space on the application for admission. SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS Wilkes College participates in the College Scholarship Service (CSS) of the College Entrance Examination Board. Participants in the College Scholarship Service subscribe to the principle that the amount of financial aid granted a student should be based on financial need. The College Scholarship Service assists colleges and universities in determining the student's need for financial assistance. All entering Federal grants ranging from $200 to $1,000 are available to those students demonstrating exceptional financial need, who, except for this aid, would be unable to obtain a higher education. Although these grants are intended to supplement Basic Grants, these also may be awarded to students whose expected parental contribution, as determined by the College Scholarship Service, does not exceed one-half the student's educational costs. �Page21 Page20 STATE SCHOLARSHIPS The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania offers direct grants to students meeting the criteria set forth by the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) program. High school students from other states wishing information concerning their state's program should contact their guidance counselor. Loans STUDENT LOAN FUNDS The Florence and Joseph A. Goldman Loan Fund has been created by the donors to assist juniors and seniors whose education may be interrupted by unexpected difficulties. The loan bears no interest and is to be repaid by the student at the earliest practical time so that other students may receive needed assistance from this revolving loan fund. The Robert W. Hall Student Loan Fund was established by Robert W. Hall, class of 1951, to assist students in meeting small emergency financial needs. GULF OIL CORPORATION STUDENT LOAN FUND In 1972, the Gulf Oil Corporation established this revolving loan fund to make low-interest loans available to students who have exhausted all other means of obtaining financial assistance. Loans are interest-free while the student remains at the College, and are to be repaid within five years after the student leaves Wilkes. NATIONAL DIRECT STUDENT LOAN FUND Long-term, low-interest loans are available to students who demonstrate financial need. The amount of the loan is determined by need with a maximum of $1,000 per academic year. Interest and repayment are deferred until the student leaves school. The program includes cancellation benefits for graduates who teach in schools having a high concentration of students from low-income families or who teach handicapped children. Graduates who enter military service are also accorded cancellation privileges. Applicants will be notified by the Committee if their financial aid package includes a National Direct Student Loan. NURSING STUDENT LOANS Federal loans of up to $2,500, depending on demonstrated need, are available to students enrolled in the Department of Nursing. Interest and repayment are deferred until the student leaves school. Borrowers may cancel up to 85 per cent of the total loan, plus interest, if employed as a full-time registered nurse in any public or private nonprofit agency, institution or organization, or agrees to serve as a registered nurse in an area designated as a shortage area. The actual percentage of cancellation depends on the type of service performed and the number of years of such employment completed. STATE GUARANTY LOAN PROGRAMS Most states now operate guaranteed loan programs which enable students to borrow from their local banks to meet educational expenses. Ordinarily, no interest is charged while the student remains in school if the family's adjusted gross income is below $25,000, nor on that portion of the loan recommended by the Financial Aid Office after an evaluation of the financial need of the student. Applications and further information are available at the student's hometown bank, savings-and-loan association, or credit union participating in the program. Employment PART-TIME EMPLOYMENT The College cautions the student to limit off-campus work, especially during the freshman year, when working may result in academic failure. However, part-time jobs in offices, stores, and industry are available for students wishing to earn part of their expenses. For such jobs the student will register with the College Placement Office. COLLEGE EMPLOYMENT The College participates in the College Work-Study Program in conjunction with the Federal Government. Part-time employment, not to exceed 15 hours per week during class periods, is available in a variety of on-campus departments.

Student-employees shall meet all obligations of their assignments or forfeit this help from the College. DEFERRED PAYMENT PLANS The College has authorized the operation of three plans through which costs of tuition and other educational expenses may be met from current family income. These loan agreements are to be repaid during the year through monthly repayment plans.

A growing campus provides added classrooms, modern laboratories, and research facilities. EUGENE SHEDDEN FARLEY LIBRARY The library, completed in the summer of 1968, has been named by the Trustees in honor of Dr. Eugene Shedden Farley, first president of Wilkes College. From 1947 to 1968 Kirby Hall, the former residence of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Morgan Kirby, was used as the College library. The building, first named the Kirby Home for Education, was presented to the College in 1941 as a gift of Allan Kirby, son of Wilkes-Barre's most generous benefactors. It is occupied presently by the English Department and the Foreign Languages and Literatures Department. The language laboratory (initiated by a gift of the graduating class of 1962), the Debate Union and the Manuscript Society are also located there. The Eugene Shedden Farley Library occupies the northwest corner of West South and South Franklin Streets. The four floors contain student study carrels; faculty research offices; media and microforms; special collection rooms. One room is devoted to Polish art treasures and exhibits of craftsmanship furnished by the Women's Committee for the Polish Room at Wilkes College; another contains books and papers from the estate of Attorney Gilbert McClintock; another holds memorabilia presented by Admiral Harold Stark; and there is a room dedicated in memory of Eleanor Coates Farley. Library space has been provided for 300,000 volumes and study area for 500 students. Also, students may borrow books from twelve nearby libraries (public and private) through the interlibrary loan system. STARK HALL OF SCIENCE The Departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics are housed in Stark Hall of Science, named in honor of the late Admiral Harold R. Stark, former Chief of Naval Operations and former Honorary Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the College.

Undergraduate Programs Degree Requirements Graduation Requirements Academic Majors and Course Descriptions �Page40 Page41 Undergraduate Programs Degree Requirements The program at Wilkes has been carefully designed so that students may meet the entrance requirements of graduate and professional schools. Students planning to go to graduate school should consult as early as possible with their department chairperson. In its degree programs Wilkes College provides for a broad liberal education and for the concentration in special areas for which students are qualified and have interest. In the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degree programs the faculty encourages students to achieve intellectual, social, and spiritual development. Areas of Study Mankind's knowledge has tended to be identified in three major areas or divisions of study. These areas and the departments identified with them are listed below. Students will be required to take a general program of courses distributed in these three areas to provide a sound liberal orientation in the varying fields of human knowledge. Academic degrees will sometimes require a specific set of these courses to meet degree requirements. Individual departments will identify these requirements when students register. AREAS Humanities Art English Foreign Languages & Literatures Music Philosophy Theatre Arts Social Sciences Commerce & Finance Education (Elementary & Secondary) History Political Science Psychology Social Science Sociology Sciences and Mathematics Biology Chemistry Computer Science Environmental Sciences Engineering Mathematics Nursing Physics DOUBLE MAJOR Students who wish to complete the requirements in two programs may elect to graduate with a double major. The student must declare intent to graduate with a double major by completing the appropriate form available at the Registrar's Office. It is the student's responsibility to seek the approval of the chairpersons of both departments to ensure that all requirements of the two majors are fulfilled. Bachelor of Arts Degree Programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree are primarily concerned with the cultivation of an understanding of our civilization and of the people who have created it and lived in it. Studies center around cultures and events, thoughts and institutions, art and science. Programs are designed to create breadth and perspective as opposed to more specialized skills. A liberal arts program must acquaint the student with the nature and extent of knowledge in all the principal fields. The student will carry on explorations in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. SELECTION OF A MAJOR To provide depth of knowledge, some concentration is required. It is essential that the major field of concentration be elected before the beginning of the junior year. Majors in the Bachelor of Arts degree program may be selected from the following subject areas: Art Biology Chemistry Computer Science Economics Elementary Education English Theater Arts Environmental Sciences Foreign Languages: French German Spanish History Individualized Studies International Relations Mathematics Music Philosophy Physics Political Science Psychology Social Science/ Urban Affairs Sociology Anthropology Bachelor of Science Degree The Bachelor of Science degree programs require more concentration within a restricted area of human thought and activity. Although these programs emphasize knowledge and skill in special fields, a basic program of general education is coupled with this specialized effort. SELECTION OF A MAJOR Majors in the Bachelor of Science degree program may be selected from the following subject areas: Biology Chemistry Commerce and Finance (a) Accounting (b) Business Administration (c) Business Education Computer Science Engineering Environmental Sciences Mathematics Medical Technology Music Education Nursing Physics �Page43 Page42 Academic Requirements Below is an example illustrating the method used to compute point averages. GRADES Course The primary purpose of any marking system is to inform the student of his achievement. Marks also aid in evaluating students for the purpose of recommendation. Grade reports are sent to students at the end of each term. Mid-term reports are sent if the work is unsatisfactory. Bio. 101 ................... . Eng. 101 ................... . Five numerical grades are given for academic work. Grade Interpretation 4 ........... Academic achievement of outstanding quality. 3 ........... Academic achievement of high quality. 2 ........... Academic achievement of acceptable quality in meeting requirements for graduation. 1 ........... Academic achievement of quality below the average required for graduation. 0 ........... Academic achievement below the minimum required for course credit. P .......... Passing, no credit. W .......... Withdrawal. N .......... Audit (No credit). "X," "Inc.," means that the student received an incomplete grade. lncompletes will be granted to students who, because of illness or reasons beyond their control, have been unable to satisfy all course requirements including the final examination. When such a grade is given, the incomplete work must be made up by or before the end of the fourth week following the last day of the examination period. If the incomplete is not removed within this time, or an extension of time granted by the instructor who gave the grade or by some other authorized person, and the Registrar's Office so notified, the grade will be changed to a zero on the student's record. COURSE CREDITS Each course at the College is assigned a specific number of credits. For example, English 101 is a 3-credit course and Chemistry 201 is a 4credit course. Usually, credits assigned to the course are determined by the number of hours that the class meets per week. Fr. 101 .................... . Hist. 101 . .................. . Mus. 101 .................. . Total credit hours carried . . . . . Total credit hours passed .... . Total points earned ........... . Average 30 + 15 = 2.0 Credit Hrs. Carried Grade Points 12 0 6 3 9 3 4 3 0 3 3 3 15 2 1 3 Credit Hrs. Passed 3 0 3 3 3 12 30 Notice that the student has accumulated 12 credits toward graduation. The zero grade in English means that the student must repeat that course. Averages are cumulative; the work of each semester will be added to the total. To graduate a student must have at the end of the senior year at least a 1.85 average for all courses and a 2.0 average in the major field. Tran sfer credits are not included in the calculation of grade averages. CLASS STANDING Grades and averages at the end of each semester of the four academic years indicate a student's progress. Unless the following minimum averages are met, a student's record is automatically reviewed by the Academic Standing Committee. Freshman Year .................... . Sophomore Year ................... . Junior Year ...................... . General Average Major Average 1.40 1.70 1.85 1.60 1.90 2.0 If these minimum averages are not attained during each semester of the year indicated, the Academic Standing Committee will review the student's record and take action resulting in his being placed on probation or dismissed from the College. PROBATION AND DISMISSAL A student placed on probation must attain the required grade average in the next semester or be subject to dismissal from the College. �Page44 Unless special perm1ss1on is granted by the Academic Standing Committee, a student dropped for academic failure will not be considered for readmission until one year after being dropped. If readmitted the student will still be on probation and shall be given one semester in which to prove his ability to continue in college. ATTENDANCE Attendance at all classes is expected. Repeated absence is deemed a sufficient cause for failure. After five consecutive absences from a class, a student may be readmitted to the class only by action of the appropriate dean and the department chairperson concerned. STUDENT LOAD No students shall be allowed to carry an overload without the approval of the advisor and the appropriate dean. An overload will be permitted only for students with an average grade record of 3 or special need. WITHDRAWALS A student may drop any course through the tenth week of the semester. A mark of "W" will be recorded if the student has properly notified the instructor, his faculty advisor, and the appropriate dean. A student who withdraws from a course after the tenth week of classes but who continues other courses will receive a zero unless the appropriate dean, faculty advisor, and instructor agree that the student be permitted to drop the course without prejudice, in which case a "W" will be recorded. Seven-week modular courses may be dropped through the sixth week of classes by following the same procedure. No student who has been advised to withdraw from the College's day school for academic reasons will be permitted to register in the Evening Division without the approval of the Academic Standing Committee and then will be allowed to register only as a nonmatriculated student. Students who withdraw from the College or drop courses should give prompt written or verbal notice to the appropriate dean or the Director of the Evening Division and to the instructor concerned, in order that their records may not unjustly show failure in courses. CHANGE OF MAJOR Students who wish to transfer from one department to another shall obtain the approval of the advisor and the department chairperson. The student shall satisfy the curriculum requirements of the bulletin in Page45 force at the time of transfer. Change-of-major forms are available in the Registrar's Office. TRANSFER OF SUMMER CREDITS Students desiring to study at another college during the summer must petition the deans for approval. The student must earn a grade of 2 or higher in order for the work to be credited toward graduation. In some cases it may be necessary for a student to take examinations before credit is granted. Transfer credits are not included in the calculation of grade point averages. DEAN'S LIST The faculty gives recognition for high quality work. Candidates for the Dean's List, published at the end of each term, must obtain a point average of 3 .25 or higher for all courses taken. Students taking less than twelve credit hours will not be eligible for the Dean's List. HONORS The granting of honors at Commencement is based upon the entire academic record achieved by students in their work at Wilkes College, such work to total at least 60 credits earned. The record of transfer students previous to their entrance at Wilkes must have been of cum laude quality to be eligible for consideration. Transfer students with fewer than 60 credits will be considered only when, for exceptional reasons, the chairperson of the department of the student's major recommends that this be done. Requirements for Honors are: Summa Cum Laude 3.80 Magna Cum Laude 3 .50 Cum Laude 3.25 GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS All candidates for degrees and certificates are expected to be present at Commencement. If circumstances prevent their attendance, students must apply to the Dean of Student Affairs for permission to take the degree or certificate in absentia. The faculty has approved the following requirements which students must satisfy in order to be eligible for graduation: 1. They must complete all subjects required for the degree as stated in the Bulletin in force at the time of admission to the program. All students must complete the last 30 credits in residence at the College. �Page47 Page46 3. They must obtain a minimum cumulative average of 1.85 for all courses. 4.

Biology Associate Professor Turoczi, chairperson; Professor Reif; Associate Professors Hayes, Houseknecht, Ogren; Assistant Professors Doty, Erickson, Rigley. The biology program is a general program covering basic areas of biology. Specific pre-professional training is minimized in favor of the broadest possible background in the liberal arts as well as the biological sciences. The B.A. curriculum offers flexibility so that it can be used by those students in secondary education who are preparing to teach and must include the professional semester of student teaching either in the seventh or eighth semester. In addition, this program provides the opportunity for students to double major and jointly satisfy the requirements of both the Department of Biology as well as those of the other department involved. The B.S. curriculum meets all of the liberal arts requirements for the Bachelor of Arts degree. In addition, it provides a greater concentration of advanced biology courses. This program is recommended for those students planning to enter industry or continue with graduate study in biology. For science majors, other than biology majors, the Department of Biology recognizes that individualized biology module selections may be more appropriate than a generalized module sequence, therefore such students are advised to consult with the Department of Biology.

The Nursing Program at Wilkes College leads to a Bachelor of Science Degree with a major in nursing and reflects a curriculum design that is responsive to the changing needs of society for health care. The purposes of the Department are to: 1. Prepare the professional nurse practitioner to use the nursing process in a variety of settings with people of all ages, and to develop the ability and motivation to continue his/ her learning through instruction, experiences, and guidance in the undergraduate program. 2. Provide a foundation for graduate study in nursing. Philosophy of Nursing Professional nursing involves a deliberative process of assessment, problem-oriented planning, implementation and the evaluation of nursing outcomes. The baccalaureate program offers an educational experience to prepare a professional nurse practitioner who exerts leadership in the emerging roles of primary, acute and long-term care. Emphasis is on the maintenance of health and the surveillance of the health practices of people. The curriculum pattern enables the student to integrate the arts, the sciences, and the humanities with nursing and to choose electives in areas related to personal interests and career goals. The opportunity for self-learning is provided in the Learning Center; it is equipped with electronic study carrels and audio-visual materials. The Center is open twelve hours a day and is staffed at all times with nursing faculty who assist students to progress at their own pace, to utilize the equipment, supplies, and procedures which will be encountered in the various clinical settings. A simulated hospital environment introduces the student to the elementary skills in nursing and the student may return to the Center at any time of the day for review and study. Clinical Resources Written agreements with the cooperating hospitals and agencies in Northeastern Pennsylvania insure clinical facilities for the student's practice which is concurrent with the classroom theory. The cooperating hospitals which are utilized are: Wyoming Valley, Nesbitt Memorial, Mercy in Wilkes-Barre and Mercy in Scranton, Veterans Administration, Wilkes-Barre General, and St. Joseph's ernity and Children's Hospital in Scranton, and the National Institutes of Health, Clinical Center, Bethesda, Maryland. The Agencies utilized are: Rural Health Corporation of Northeastern Pennsylvania, the Luzerne/Wyoming Mental Health Center, the Hazleton/ Nanticoke Mental Health Center, St. Stanislaus Medical Care Center, the Maternal Health Services of Northeastern Pennsylvania and Friendship House, Scranton, the State Health Departments in Wilkes-Barre and Scranton, the Home Health Services of theastern Pennsylvania, the Allied Services for the Handicapped in Scranton, the United Rehabilitation Services of Wilkes-Barre, the RCA Corporation, Dunmore, Pa., the Wilkes-Barre Area School District and the Northwest Area School District, Shickshinny. Students are responsible for their own transportation to assigned clinical areas. Expenses of the Nursing Program The student of nursing assumes all the financial obligations listed in the finance section of this catalogue. Additional expenses incurred in the nursing program include: uniforms, name pins, yearly physical examinations, immunizations, dental and eye examinations, NLN achievement and comprehensive tests, liability insurance, transportation to assigned clinical areas and the College Nursing pin upon completion of the program. Comprehensive Examinations In addition to fulfilling the academic requirements of the College, students majoring in nursing are required to successfully complete the comprehensive examinations administered by the Department of Nursing. The examinations are given during the senior year. �Page 115 Page 114 Course Requirements Advanced Placement by Examination The Department of Nursing provides advanced credit examinations for applicants to enter the program at their level of competency. Previous education and/ or practical experience which would involve repetitive learning may justify advancing the applicant to higher level responsibilities. Transfer and registered nurse students are required to have a personal interview with a faculty member in the department to plan his/her program before acceptance into the Wilkes nursing program can be completed. Students may be admitted for either full-time or part-time study and may challenge, in the proper sequence, twenty-one credits of clinical nursing courses. Examinations are offered three times a year, in January, May, and August. Upon approval of the petition and acceptance of the $25.00 fee for each course, study materials and directions will be given to the student by the faculty advisor. Examinations may not be repeated. Upon successful completion of the examination, the credits are recorded on the student's official records. License to Practice Candidates for a license to practice in the health field are required to have "good moral character." (Section 6, of Act 151, amended May 29, 1968 - P.L. 135, No. 73.) The Pennsylvania State Board of Nurse Examiners may take into consideration, when deciding on the applications for registration and a license to practice under their jurisdiction, whether candidates have been included in any legal action or legal proceedings, either civil or criminal. Curriculum The curriculum is an integrated program covering a four-year academic period, totaling 127 credits. Satisfactory completion of all required liberal arts and nursing courses, which include both theory and practice, is prerequisite for progression to the succeeding year of study. Only with the permission of the chairperson of the Nursing Department may changes be made. Nursing courses are introduced in the second year and the nursing experiences progress from the simple to the complex throughout the four-year period. Examinations in nursing may be repeated only once. The student will have the option to select his/ her area of concentration in Nursing for independent study in the senior year, and will be assigned a faculty advisor who is a clinical expert in the student's chosen field of interest. 47 credits (Nsg. 200-Nutrition is not included) Nursing 20 Sciences Humanities 18 18 Social Sciences Electives 21 Minimum number of credits required for B.S. degree - 127 NSG. 101.

Philosophy Associate Professor Henson, chairperson; Associate Professors Kay, Williams (sabbatical); Assistant Professor Wuori; Adjunct Professor Barras. The study of philosophy, whether by those who pursue a major in philosophy or by those who elect only a few courses of special interest, contributes to the development of the most basic skills and habits of mind which are characteristic of educated men and women: clarity of thought, precision in the analysis of conflicting claims and the power to render sound judgments based upon an appreciation of differing perspectives, and the ability to express and defend one's own views with force and imagination. Students who develop these skills through the study of philosophy are not only ideally prepared for a variety of professional careers in law, medicine, teaching, and the ministry; they are also the beneficiaries of the traditional liberal arts education essential in today's world for success in numerous careers in government, business, and industry. Since students elect to study philosophy for a variety of reasons, and because many philosophy majors elect to pursue a "double major" in philosophy and a related area of interest, philosophy majors are invited to design their own majors in consultation with their advisors and with the approval of the department chairperson. The typical program consists of 30 credit hours in philosophy, including either Philosophy 101 or Philosophy 201, and Philosophy 152. Total minimum credits required for the B.A. degree PHIL. 101. INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY 121. Three credits An introduction to the major figures, problems, and concerns of Western philosophical thought.

These two courses do not count toward the 24-credit hours of psychology required of majors. To allow the greatest possible flexibility in the psychology program, there is only one additional psychology course required of all psychology majors once the Psychology 101 and 102 sequence has been taken, that being Psychology 215, Research Design and Analysis. Students are then free to tailor a program of study to fit their own needs and interests. It is strongly recommended, however, that students take Psychology 211 and 212, Experimental Psychology, especially if they have any intention of pursuing graduate training. Students are reminded that professional psychological work presumes advanced graduate study. Psychology 206, History of Psychology, would be useful to the students so that they might appreciate the breadth and nature of psychological thought and effort. It would be highly desirable for the student to take at least one course from each of the interest areas listed below to achieve a reasonably balanced exposure.

Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps Program The Air Force ROTC program is divided into two phases: the General Military Course (GMC), the first two college years, and the Professional Officer Course (POC), the last two years. A student may elect to enroll in the Four-Year AFROTC Program or the Two-Year AFROTC Program. Students electing the Four-Year Program will take the General Military Course during their freshman and sophomore years and the Professional Officer Course during their junior and senior years. They will attend four weeks of field training during the summer between the sophomore and junior years. As members of the program they are eligible to compete for AFROTC Scholarships. For acceptance into the POC, the Four-Year Program student must pass a physical examination and an Officer Qualifying Test, and possess an acceptable academic rating. To qualify for enrol~ment in the Two-Year Program, students must have two academic years remaining at either the graduate or undergraduate level or a combination of the two. They must also meet certain physical standards, pass an Officer Qualifying Test, and possess an ac~eptable academic rating. Further, they must successfully complete a six-week Field Training Course before they can be accepted into the Professional Officer Course. Transfer students may elect the Professional Officer Course by satisfying the above requirements. Uniforms and all equipment and textbooks required for AFROTC work are supplied by the College and the United States Air Force. Students in the Professional Officer Course receive $100 per month in subsistence allowance. Students who successfully complete the Professional Officer Course are commissioned as second lieutenants in the United States Air Force Reserve. Consistent with AF needs, they serve on active duty in the Air Force in a specialty as close as possible to their academic training. The AFROTC program is recognized as academic but of a highly specialized nature. It is not a major field of study; the course work is taken as a concentration in conjunction with the student's chosen academic major. Academic credit is given for all ROTC subjects taken and passed, and the grades will affect the student's academic rating. Unless otherwise specified in the course requirements section of the College Bulletin, students may use POC or GMC credit hours to satisfy elective requirements for graduation.

Wilkes College has established a formal affiliation with the Allentown Hospital in Allentown, Pa., the Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, Pa., Somerset Hospital in Somerville, N.J., the Williamsport Hospital, the Hahnemann Medical College and Hospital, and the �Page 147 Page 146 General Hospital in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Fulfillment of the fourth year requirement at non-affiliated hospitals requires special permission of the department chairperson and of the Academic Standing Committee.

Wilkes College makes an exception to this requirement for medical and dental students. These students may, with the approval of the Academic Standing Committee, satisfy the requirements for the Bachelor's degree by completing three years of undergraduate study at Wilkes and by requesting credit toward the degree for their first two years of work in professional school. Such students must petition the Academic Standing Committee for permission to graduate, submit official transcripts from the professional school, and pay the usual graduation fees. In all cases the final approval for the granting of the degree rests with the Academic Standing Committee of Wilkes College. In lieu of the senior academic year on campus, one calendar year of study is required at an accredited school of medical technology. WILKES-HAHNEMANN COOPERATIVE MEDICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM IN FAMILY MEDICINE In an effort to increase the number of family physicians in northeastern Pennsylvania, Wilkes College and Hahnemann Medical College and Hospital initiated an innovative six-year program in family medicine in September of 1972. Successful completion of the program will enable a student to earn both the Baccalaureate Degree and the Doctor of Medicine Degree concurrently, six years after entering the freshman year at Wilkes College. In this program a class of approximately 100 students will spend the first two years at Wilkes in a preprofessional health sciences curriculum which will meet the minimum natural science, social science, and communicative skills f ~r potential entry into the medical component of the program. The curriculum is designed with a high degree of flexibility so that a highly motivated student may select a major from a variety of health-related disciplines such as biology, chemistry, physics, medical technology, psychology and sociology-anthropology, as well as such non-related areas as English, history, mathematics, political science and philosophy. After completion of the two-year Wilkes sequence, the Joint Selection Committee will supervise the selection of approximately twentyfive (25) qualified candidates for entrance into the medical components at Hahnemann. Students who are not selected or do not elect to enter Hahnemann may still pursue a variety of degree options offered by Wilkes. The next two and one-half years at Hahnemann Medical College will be spent studying the basic and clinical sciences and advanced basic clinical sciences. The final year and a half will be spent in Wilkes-Barre at Wilkes College and the Wilkes-Barre area hospitals (Mercy Hospital, Wilkes-Barre; Nesbitt Memorial Hospital, Kingston; Veterans Administration Hospital, Wilkes-Barre; Wilkes-Barre General Hospital; Wyoming Valley Hospital, Wilkes-Barre), where students will enter the family medicine track of study and complete the Baccalaureate Degree requirements. Students interested in this accelerated program can make application by obtaining a Wilkes College admission form from the Dean of Admissions. Admission to Wilkes College does not imply automatic admission into the Hahnemann Medical Components. �PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS IN HEALTH SCIENCES - FAMILYMEDICINE 1 FIFTH YEAR Hahnemann Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa.
