"If the rhythm holds, in 1990 there rvl/1 be 8 sharp _change in the nation '.t mood and direction. • Schlesinger notes that the cycle normally takes a turn when the 1enet&I public be1ins to become fed up with the ·do-gooders· of the Hber&l parties. The dispasitioa of America wi11 turn from public interest to self interest. These times will be marred by ·hedonism, .materialism, and intellectual abandonment.· It is without any hesitauon that Schlesin.ger regards present American attitudes as pa.rt of this very set of phenomena. Being the died-in-thewool liber&l that Scblesin1er is, he does not simply stop with today's situation. Part of his cyclical theory implies that we can predict the fUture of American political thouaht. LootiD.1 bact to the turbulent yea.rs of the sillies, Schlesinger sets out to predict the fUtu.re.

However. Hartcta.gen feels there is a "very definite change" in structure for what will become the College of Arts and Sciences. "We wiH have a group of departments working togelber more now than they have in the past," Hartdagen said. "One of the major things we're looking for is to get the departments working together. "They [lbe departments in the Co11ege of Arts and Sciences] will have a peculiarly important role in the core curriculum," the dea.n said . "We are also looking for more interdisciplinary courses," Hartdagen said . The dean pointed out. however. that there "will not be any curricular changes as a .result of the new structure." He added that structure changes wiH no~ lead to changes in majors or fo what wm appear on students' diplomas. Under the new structure. each of the tvo Schools and the College will be headed by a dean. The departments in the College . of Arts and Sciences wiU also each have a cha~rman; in the two Schools, according to Hartdagen, "We can have a chairman, but ve can decide not to ." Three search committees will begjn work to recommend deans for the newly created Schools and ColJege . This will be an internal search, according to Hartdagen . "In none of the cases are we looking outside the College," he said . Members of the search committees have. been announced. For the College of Arts and Sciences. the committee will consist of Lester Turoczi (Biology) as chair, and Theresa Grabo (Nursing), John Natzke (Sociology) and .•. William Sterling (Art). i Committee members for the · School of Business a.nd Economics will be Kenneth Broadt (Accounting) as chair. Rose Cordora (Business) and Robert DeYoung (Economics). Conducting the search for a dean of the School of Engineering and Physical Sciences wiH be Walter Placek (Physics) as chair. ·and John Janacek (Engineering), Roger Maxwell (Physics and Engineering) and Brian Redmond (E & ES) . �•••nro Editorial Alcohol policy is good but it needs some work The new alcohol policy which went into effect in February seems to be a good policy. It spells out clearly what the college expects of students. And it has made provisions for the Alcohol Disciplinary ~ard which will deal with violations of the policy. Certa1nly the Alcohol Task Force and the Alcohol Disciplinary Board should be commended for their efforts. But there seems to be some problems with the implementation of the policy this semester. first. it seems that the Alcohol Disciplinary Board is hearing only select cases dealing with serious and repeated offenses. Meanwhile. the "appropriate administrative offices" will continue to deal with the less serious cases in a "routine way," according to the official memo circulated in February . But wouldn't it be more efficient and effective if the Board dealt with all violations of the policy? This way the punishments would be consistent and fair in that every offender would be judged by the same group of people and the same criteria for punishment. Wouldn't this lack of continuity in judgment weaken the authority of the Board and the.policy? The second problem with the policy is that the aforementioned "administrative offices" were one of the main inadequacies of the old policy. Presumably. th~se offices are the Residence Life Office and the Student Affairs Council . These offices would deliver inadequate and ineffective punishments. In fact. it seemed that kicking a student out because of alcohol related behavior was not even an option . Furthermore, the punishments available to these offices were inadequate. "Social probation" was never more than a slight inconvenience to a condemned offender. Thus the main defi ciency in the old policy was that it was not strenuously enforced. Therefore. wilt we not have the same lax discipline if these offices continue to meet out punishment even though the Alcohol Disciplinary Bo~rd is equipped with the means to effectively enforce the policy? And the third and most serious problem with the alcohol policy is that students and more importantly RA's are not taking it seriously. Numerous upperclassmen have observed that there has been as much drinking on campus as last year or the year before. One RA pointed out that the students are simply being more discreet. Furthermore, students have also observed that their RA's seem to be ignoring drinking in general (aJl but kegs), much ~ the students' delight. However. this is not a condemnation of RA's. It is an effort to point out the inherent difficulties in making students (RA's) responsible for the behavior of fellow students. An RA who turns a student in must face that student the next day. And is the payment of room and board sufficient to motivate an RA to make his living environment hostile? Perhaps the Alcohol Disciplinary Board could be more iJ\volved in enforcement of the policy. The alcohol policy seems to have the potential for success. Perhaps attention to the aforementioned problems will ensure its success. but of course. only time wiJl tell . eacon eadline All articles. letters. announcements, advertisements, etc .. must be submitted to The Beacon by Monday ~:00 p.m. at the latest.

Dr. Joel Berlatsky, Dr. Samuel Mer.rill, and Dr. Christopher B.reiseth . Dr. Lafebe.r, a specialist in American foreign policy. is the author of many books on th·e subject, including America, Russia, and t/Je Cold '/Far; The Panama Ca11al: T/Je Crisis in Historical Perspective; and /11evita/Jle Jlevolutio11s: The U11ited States in Ce11tral America. He also co-authored many books, perhaps most notably T/Jt Creation of Ille America11 ,Empire, an analysis of American diplomacy from 17'50 until the present. Lafebe.r .received his bachelor's degree from Hanover College in 19'5'5. his Master's from Stanford in 19'56. and his doctorate from the University of Wisconsin in 19'59.

The sho-w is being presented by the Department of Music and the Cultural Events Series. Ze.roMoving Dance Company is an innovative dance group whose style is de.rived from that of Mary Wigman. a pioneer in German modern dance. The Company, founded by HeJJmut Gottschild fourteen yea.rs ago, is cu.rrentiy being directed by Mr. GottschHd and Karen · Bamonte. In 1981. 1982. and 198◄, ZeroMoving perfo1·med at the prestigious Riverside Dance Festival in New York City. For the Guggenheim Museum's presentation of "The Yellow Sound," Mr. Gottschild choreographed a piece which the Company staged in Berlin, Frankfurt. and New York . In 1979, Alan .K.riegsman of the Washington Post commented on the group's talents: ith , "If you -want to be reassured that creative discovery of a high order is still happening in modern dance, go see The Ze.roMoving Dance Company." Relache. an eight-yearold contemporary music ensemble, -wiJJ accompany ZeroMoving's exposition of modern dance . ReJache is the only independent. full time professional ensemble devoted to contemporary music in the Philadelphia area. The ensemble emphasizes works by American compose.rs as well as more "experimental" music. Although Rel&che performs primarily in the Philadelphi& area.. it has become one of the most visible and active new music groups in the nation through its use of individual members' talents and "imaginative programming in a variety of contexts." , Relache has appeared at Roulette, Carnegie Recital Hall. and St. Mark's Church in Ne-w York City as well as in Pennsylvania.

I Campbell conducts high school festival by Amy Hancock Jerome Campbell, Chairman of the Department of Music. was the guest conductor at the annual District 8 Band Festival on February 12 through 1'.5. This year. the festival took place at Southern Columbia High School. Performing in the festival we.re 130 of the most talented high school musicians from ten northeastern and north central counties in Pennsylvania. The event was sponsored by the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association. an organization of certified music instructors trying to promote interest in school music . Mr. Campbell. who con ducts as many as ten such festivals each year. was selected on the basis of bis past performance; he holds more than ~00 public pe.rformances to his merit. He currenUy mates appearances in New Yo.rt and the New England area as well as in Pennsylvania. Although the guest conductors are permitted to appear only once every four years, Mr. Campbell has appeared at the District Eight Band Festival before this year. Making a special appearance at the Saturday evening concert were twenty-four WH.tes College music majors. They formed -brass choirs for a Kalini.tov symphony. thoroughly impressing the students and directors from the high school bands who attended the festival. Guest conducting at festivals such as District Eight's gives M.r. Campbell the opportunity to advertise Wil.tes· Department of Music. Although the department has quite a strong program. the size of the college does not aUow for recognition in proportion to its strength . After working with an instructor from the school. namely Mr. Campbell, and hearing and seeing current students at Wilkes. high school musicians may very well decide to attend coUege here. ~-----------------------------------------,I COMMUTER STUDENT SPECIAL Take advantage of reduced price, "aJJ you can eat",meal tickets for Pickering Dining Hall.

Some of the .rumors that have been spreading are: 1. Chesapeake Hall and Delaware Hall will be torn down so that a mo.re modernized dorm can be built. 2. A fifth floor wiU be added o.n to Evans Hall during the summer. 3. Hollenback Hall and Barre Hall will be closed because there are many open rooms available. 4. Miner Hau will be closed because 17 ilkes has lost its lease on it. ' :5. Pickering will turn co-ed the first semester of next year. According to the Di.rector of the Reside.nee Life Office, Paul Adams, these .rumors are simply .not true. The only one that has any truth to it is the one dealing with Pickering. The.re is absolutely no truth to the rumor about Chesapeake Hall and Delaware Hall. W' iltes does not have the money to build a new do.rm. To try to build another dorm would put the College in serious debt. The rumor about Evans Hall is also untrue . As stated earlier, the College does not have the money to tackle a project like this. Hollenback Ha.11 and Barre Hall will not be closed. If this we.re to happen, the.re would be no place to put the students vho are p.rese.ntly livin.1 there. There are aot many open rooms available . According to Paul Adams. "There are only 900 beds available in the dorms and 98~ or them are run: Wiltes· losing its lease on Miner Hi.11 is also a fabrication.. Wilkes has aot lost its lease on. Miner. If this were true, there would be a serious problem in trying to rehouse people. Finally, the rumor concerning Pickering Ha.11 is the only one that is partially true. It is not definite that Pickering vm turn co-ed. but if it does it will not happen next yea.r. The issue has only been discussed briefly, so it vill be some time before anything might be done.

The Beacon got the story from its p ..ess service which consulted the Psychology Today a.rticle. I assume. Munday based her story on the information included in the press service release. We apologize for ou .. press service if it misrep ..esented the Psychology Today a ..ticle . But one might ask why some students we ..e so greatly affected by The Beacon 's a.rticle. If students were "JTorried aboµt "satisfying the curious. puzzled mind of normal. horny co11ege students" as one letter w..iter was, I would suggest that it's a hopeless cause--these students generally don't have a mind to satisfy. Furthermore, I would think that the music majors would be more offended by the graphics which were included in the headline than by the story itself. And in no place did the story assert that music majors really did prefer music ove .. sex. In fact, Munday "got the impression that they believed this to be true of music majo ..s other than themselves." Finally, given that the a.rticle was meant to be humorous, I would counsel these uptight students to lighten up! But the response The Beacon has ..eceived over this rather insignificant issue is disturbing . Considering the magnitude and consequence of many issues which The Beacon has been cove.ring, why a.re students wasting their energy and concern on a trivial debate.? Don't students mind that their activity fee may be ..aised? Students don't participate in the activities that a.re offered now. How would more money change this? A.re they not concerned about the alcohol policy and the new disciplinary board? Is it appropriate that offenders are required to do community service activities to atone for their sin? Don't these students c'a.re if their college may become a. university and wiJl be rearranged to fit a school structure? What wiU happen to the Music Department, the English Depa..tment. and so on? WiU the Music Department get sucked into the College of Arts and Sciences, or will it be a sepa.rate school of perfo ..ming arts?

While some courses re qui.red for a student's major may also be counted towards the Hcore," sometimes half of one's college career is spent satisfying these requirements. While the core requirements seem reasonable to students who .need time to explore their possibilities. anyone with his heart al.ready set on his major may find them laborious. Many students have difficulty unde.rsta.o.di.ng why they have to take classes that· don't seem even remotely related to their majors. Some of them would be content to be able to base their electives solely o.n their personal interests. That. at least initially. seems to be a more logical route to expa.o.dJng Uleir .bor1Zo.ns. In order to be able to comprehend the way other people think and their concepts and ideas about aaything. one must have a As stated in the Wilkes CoHege Bulletin, Wiltes considers itself a "liberal arts" school and is "committed to the ideal of preparing men and women for enlightened and responsible leadership in society." The College's faculty has selected a range of basic courses believed to be essential in encouraging the intellectual growth of students. Besides basic .requirements in English composition, mathematics, physical education, and computer literacy (the latest addition). Wilkes College students must take six courses i.n the humanities, one in the arts. four i.n the social sciences. a.o.d at least four in mathematics or the sciences. In the process of fulfiUing the requirements, students are allowed to select from a broad bac.tarouad ia many areas. The ability to view the world from differe.nt perspectives aids one in keeping a.n open mind a.o.d functioning .in. everyday life. Students trained i.n one concentrated area are often lacking in such abilities. Dr. Clyde Houseknecht, Chairman of the Curriculum Committee, supports the core curriculum because exposure to areas outside one's major is desirable to possible employers. Wbile many other colleges loosened their requirements, Wilkes has maintained its core curriculum. Many of 'those other schools have recognized the "error of their ways," and have reinstituted core requirements. Their students were disadvantaged by inadequate exposure to the broad range of disciplines. Thus, the intent of a core curriculum is to benefit students, not torture them. In the long run. having a broad education enables a person to function to the best of his abilities. by Lorri Steinbacher DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOOY LECTURE SERIES PRESENTS 1HE BIOLOGY OF PAPILLOMA VIRUSF.S• By Dr. William C.

While atte.nding the Grammy Avards as a nominee rather than a spectator is going to be the thrill of a lifetime, Paul anticipates more than the opportunity to meet some famous people from the world of music.

As a student, Randolph jogged to give her brain an oxygen boost for the test. Nov, as a developmental psychology lecturer for San Diego State. she passes along similar study and test-taking tips to her ovn students. "Studying is a kind of hoop-jumping event." Randolph says. "There are certain s.tiJls you can develop that viU put you a few grade points higher." "It can mean the difference between a 'B,.' and an 'A' or a 'C+' and a 'B,"' she adds. Keeping the brain stimulated during an exam is as important as keeping the rest of your body relaxed. she advises. Randolph recommends drinking fruit juice during an exam to maintain the brain's glucose level. When you receive the exam paper, she suggests putting it aside. closing your eyes and clearing your mind. "Take a deep breath and rela1; concentrate on how much you knov and don't worry about vhat you don't know. Be positive," she says. Randolph says students sometimes "psyche themselves out" on exams to the point where their completed test doesn't reflect their Having trouble in your classes?

Keeping· your body in good shape prior to an exam usually helps the brain stay active, too. "How well you think is reflective of how your body is doing," she says. . She recommends eating fruit, instead of candy bars, for energy. because it ma.kes you feel better physically. and f eeli.n g positive is a. must for doing well on a test. Randolph compiled her study tips from fell ow faculty members. counseling center resources, and students attending study workshops she conducted at Texas Christian University. ' She says freshman in particular need study tips because they "don't realize the importance of studying as a. regular habit." "They also have the added burden of training other people to respect their study habits; to have other people accept their studying." - If a student is afraid of the material. he needs to' have a talk vith himself and start vith the hardest subjects first, when he is freshest. she advises. "But. if he is absolutely paranoid, start with the easiest subjects to reinforce confidence." But can you study too much? Yes, she says, if extra studying means skimping on sleep. "It's okay to make trade-offs on sleep versus study, depending on how well you know your body. Cut down on sleep if you knov you can still operate veil." she advises. "There's no point in being so exhausted you aren't able to say what you know on the exam." For some students, however, the night before the test is spent not reviewing information, but learning it for the first time. Such cramming. Randolph says, is a "waste of time." "If you've never put the material in before, you' re not going to get it out during the e1am." t, -';j I.J:J ..Jld OH '::AY O\N )<J(J 6£1::.. America the Beautiful. Give a hoot. Don't pollute.

I am usually the one who. in a debate on the merits of moving south. viJl defend the beauty of the change of seasons. Although fall is un-questionably my favorite time of year, I usually greet spring, summer. and winter with genuine expectation. This year. however. winter is trying my patience. Winter is synonymous with the flu season. Recently, my youngest son was home for almost a week with the flu; that week is now a blur of somehow making it to class as well as keeping up with assignments. doctor's appointments. thermometers. and "one-half teaspoon four times a day ." The rest of the family flirted with the same virus. and vhen my eldest son came home from school complaining of a headache the day after his brother had finally returned to school. my sympathetic comment was. "Don't you dare get sick!" Winter also brings snow. Th is year we have certainly been blessed with great amounts of that commodity. I like a planned daily routine. but trying to attend school in Wilkes-Barre during the winter has removed any semblance of order left in my life. More times than I would like to guess, I have listened to the long lists of delays and can ceJJations on the radio . (Doesn't Wilkes EVER cancel?) Once I determine who has school and who does not. I try to engineer a plan of child care so that I can attend class. Since I live through the valley and up the hill. I also need to somehow determine if it is possible for my car and me to get to town. At this time. I mentally tally the number of classes already missed due to the flu and snow. I then weigh life and limb against another "absent" marked in an attendance book. Winter also often dampens the spirits. Perhaps it is the few sunny days or the feeling of being shut in. but I find it hard to be upbeat and positive on some of these gray winter days. It takes more effort to generate enthusiasm for academic pursuits when life. in general. seems rather bland. Our one consolation is that in about a month. spring wil1 officially begin.

This committee, which ,rill consist of the students. the clerical staff. the maintenance staff, the faculty, and the administration has two major goals. The first is to bring about a major change of the campus by planting flowers, pruning trees and shrubs. mulching fertilizer. and cleaning up the debris that is scattered around the campus. The second goal of the Beautifica&.ion Committee is to bring about a new awareness of the campus conditions. According to Dr. Housetnect, "People just don't have any campus pride." The committee hopes that by showing that the f acuity and staff care about the condition of the campus. the students will also take an interest in helping to improve it. The day that is put aside for the committee to accomplish its goals is Sunday, April 20th (The .rain date for this event is Thursday, May 1st.).

Dr. Robert Heaman vas .recently appointed Associate Dean of Academic Affairs. Du.ring the last meeting of the Faculty Policy Committee, chaired by D.r. James P. odechto. the procedure by hich the appointment was made was questioned by certain faculty members. The process utilized in filling the position did not involve a formal application procedure, but was more of an uncontested appointment. According to D.r. Rodechko, "No clear trend emerged" concerning the matter. He could not determine whether the committee was in agreement ith o.r opposed to the manner in which the appointment was made. However. some committee members felt that the availability of the position should have been made known and that applications for the job should have been accepted. President Christopher Breiseth was present at the meetin and the.refo.re became aware of the .concerns .regarding the appointment. Dr. Rodechto stated that the President responded positively to the issue. Also discussed was the procedure to be employed if Wilkes College should enter into a university structure. In the organization of various schools. as a university would require. the need to appoint academic deans of these schools would ar.rise. Rodechto noted that President Breiseth was agreeable and willing to consider an alternate method of selection . He also stated that the President would review a proceedu.re that would mate known the available positions and would co.n.duct an e:umination of applications .received from within the College. This procedure would become necessary only if Wilkes became a university, o.r if an-0the.r dean was to be appointed. The college/university decision. however. remains a matter of discussion.

Ann-StOp wonyt.ng about PAGE Families of .non-traditional students ue a curious phenomenon. At a party recenUy, my husband and I found ourselves in a corner with another couple composed of a student/wife and her mate. We compued stories about family Hfe when Mom is a student. Patty said, "Bury is super-supportive at the beginning of the semester . As the wee.ts go by, h1s encouragement proportionately decreases until the night before a final, when we generally have a major fight." Bury, defending himself, said, "It gets to the point when I feel as if the cat gets more attention than I dol" I happen to know that Barry is quite proud of his wife's accompJishments. but this incident, humorous as it was, illustrates a situation that occurs in many homes of non-traditional students. When a housewife leaves the confines of her home to follow a dream, or when a husband/father decides to better his opportunities through education, the entire family must contend with a new situation. Piles of boo.ts and papers accumulate in inconvenient places, dirty laundry mounds, and meals become cursory and usually rather uninspiring. On a less tangible plane, the student tends to be preoccupied with extraneous thoughts centered uound assignments, papers, and tests; while at the same time, devotes less time to typical familial interactions. The ! ..,.. ***************************• stress of deadlines ud self-imposed pressure to succeed ofteii fray eveii t.he best of temperaments. Somehow. the family must deal with all this. Ideally. compromises are made. and family responsibilitie1 ue parceled out. In my family. my husband has assumed the grocery shopping, my daughter has Jeuned to cleaa the bathroom, and my sons ue becoming fairly expert at unloading the dishwasher. One non-traditional student in the local support group is a firm believer that such job shuing builds family character. I agree with that student. Not all families, however, f ue so well Some students believe that school obligations and the changes they have wrought have strained muriages and family relationships to the breaking point. In some cases, perhaps, these bo.nds were weak before the added pressure of school Nevertheless, in such situations, it is difficult to pursue an educational goal. Whe.n an adult assumes the role of student in addition to his or her family role. unusual implications ue created for all Although it is not always easy, many families adapt and mate adjustments. For some, it can be problematic. I feel very fortunate, for long ago my family realized that i.n order for me to be a better wife, mothe.r, and friend, I .need to be the best JU. I can possibly be. I am grateful that I have the freedom to try.

It's .mission: &o uphold the honor of the Iona &NY line. and improve it's ll-1 record vith a victory over Wil.tes. The Army, hovever. made a crucial m.ista.te .in plannin.s this mission.; they sent cadets to tangle vith colonels. The Cadets realized their mista.te in the first battle of the after.o.oo.o. when J18pound Colonel Dennis Mejias superior decisioned Cadet Jeff Shapiro, 1-4-2. Mejias dominated the match, putting Shapiro on his bac.t three times in the bout. At 126 . . freshman Ron Miller vrestled tough in droppi.o.g a 6--4 decision to Armys· Mite Donato. The biggest battle of the after.o.oo.o. came in the 13-4-pound bout. vhen Armys' defen.din.a El WA champion Dennis Semmel brought his Z,-1 record &&&inst Wit.tes' unbea&en Andre Miller. Miller a.nd Semmel tied when they met last year. Semmel vasn 't as luc.ty this year; Andre continued his winning ·vays w.ith a 9-4' decision. Wil.tes went on to post wins in the next four bouts. wjth Colonels Gary Sa.nchez, Tom Schoffstall. Craig Rome a.nd Tom Jamic.ty a11 putting points onthe board for Coach john Reese's team. Army went on to add a little drama to the aflernoon as they won the final three bouts. one by fall. one by major decision and one by superior decision. The Blac.t Iniahts came up short, however, a.nd the final score vu Colonels 20. Cadets 18. In other action that same afternoon. 1J it.tes defea&ed Rutgers. 29-14'. Ron Miller, Andre Mille.r. Gary Sanchez. Craig Rome. Tom j&mic.ty and jerry Scarinae all posted wins in. the con.test. Earlier in the wee.t. Y il.tes destroyed the Golden Bea.rs of Kutztown University by a score of 4'9-6. The Colonels von every match but one (190). Dennis Mejias• Guy Sa.nchez. and Tom j&mict.y all recorded fa11s for Wil.tes in that contest. To finally a.nswer a question that has been keeping Wil.tes Wrestling fans awa.te, no. Andre Miller a.nd Ron Miller are not related. Andre is from Bayshore, Long Isla.nd a.nd is a Graduate of Brentwood High School. Ron is from Nazereth PA. and is a araduate of Nazereth High School. As of last veedend, Wit.tes vas 1-4-3.

Both Hartdagen and Breiseth stated that neither the appointment of Dr .

Hartdagen noted that most small colleges have associate deans. "W iJtes is the only college I know of that doesn't have an academ ic dean," Hartdagen added, but stressed that this appointment bas "no relationship to university status.

"Our expectation is that the Committee will work for the remainder of the spring semester and bring in a report to the Board of Trustees at its May meeting," Hartdagen noted. When a decision on university status is reached, •rr'ication must be .made to ,he ·;tate. Achieving univer.i1L;, status will take "at least two years from the time we rormaJly apply," Breiseth said.

In addition to teaching, Dr. Werner vas an active lecturer and was involved in various research projects. He vas also responsible for the direction of the Management Trainina Program within the Commerce and Finance Department. Dr. Werner received his Bachelor's de1ree from the University of Illinois ud Roosevelt University. Both bis Master's degree ud his Doctorate Un labor economics) vere earned at the University of Wisconsin. Werner also holds doctoral minors in sociology and anthropology. Teachjng is not the eitent of Dr. Werner's background. Durina World War II, he served in the U.S . Navy in the Pacific theater. He was also involved in corporate wort vith large companies such as General Electric and AT"T. Upon the announcement of his retire.meat, Werner was presented with a silver tray by bis coJleagues. The inscription read, "Bob Werner- -Teacher, Scholar. Friend--From His Colleagues. WUtes College, 19'~-198'"· One of the reasons Werner eajoyed teaching at WHt.es vas the s.ize of the coUege . Because Wilkes is relatively smaJl. there is a more intimate atmosphere that enables the professors to become better aquaioted with the students and vice verta. Accordin1 to Werner. it is easier to convey thou1hts and ideas to the students in an atmosphere such as Wilkes'. The relationship that develops between student and teacher is special. Werner believes that the professor should think of the student as a "junior scholar" while the student vievs the professor as a Nsenior scholar.N This philosophy breeds a feeling of mutual respect. Dr. Werner emphasises the importance of a give and take relationship between student and teacher vhen he states, NI try to learn something from my students everyday." Although bis teaching career is coming to a close. Dr. Werner's intellectual career is far from over . After retirement. he plans on catching up on deH.nquent projects. Also, Werner hopes to use the enra time to pursue cerwn academic research and investigation, and to do some writing . He viJJ mate himself available for a "limited" amount of consultation. If time allows it in his busy schedule, Dr. Werner also hopes to do some traveUing. Dr. Werner is a man vho possesses a great wealth of knowledge and who has the ability and desire to share • Continued on page 10 �PAGlftwO Editorial Political expedience education? "A year of firsts" t before social activities Above all else. Wilkes College is an institution dedicated to higher learning. I believe this is undeniably_ the re~n _we all should be here . This goal is illustrated 1n the Mission Statement: "Wilkes brings together motivated students an~ a highly qualified. dedicated faculty and staff in a supportive atmosphere that encourages each student's intellectual and personal development." In other words. the stud~n~ &('e_he~e to learn; the faculty is here to teach; and the admtnistration is here to support the relationship between the two .. Thus one may presume that the intended purpose_ of the appointment of a new Associate Dean of Academic Affairs. and the restructuring of academic affairs. amo~g other th in~s. i~ to improve the quality of a Wilkes education . But conside~in_g the consequence of some recent changes on campus. it is possible that political eipediency has taken precedence over education . Dr. Thomas Kaska. chairman of the Language and Literature Department. resigned as chairman effective in May. His resignation immediately followed the announcement of the new Associate Dean's position . The editorial in the first Be•co11 issue this semester pointed out that the process by which this new position was created and filled Jacked openness and communication~-qualities whic~ the administration has placed much emphasis upon . Would it not have been more effective to consult those people who would be dramatically affected by the change? I susp~ct so. Nevertheless the decision was made and Dr. Kaska resigned. This situtatio~ is certainly regrettable. and the department is losing a valuable educator who has steadfastly maintained the integrity of the department's program .. This brings us to the issue in question . A plan has been proposed to combine the Language and Li_terature Department and the Philosophy Department. The Phdosophy Department chairman would then become the chairman of the· combined departments. But is this plan the best way to sup~ort the relationship between students and faculty? The Phdoso_phy Department claims appro1imately three to four mai~rs. whereas. the Language and Literature Department claims approximately 4~ majors (two or three ?f which are _language majors) . Is it wise to have a chairman who is ~e~d primarily in philosophy oversee a department which •.s primarily literature oriented? Of course, Dr. Henson is perfectly capable. Bu~ is it ~air to ~ut ~ f~c~lty ~em~er ~ho is responsible for the U1tegrity of his di~ci~lu.~.e 111 a s1t~a~ion which could prove damaging to both disciplines? This is a case in which political expediency is taking precedence over education . Consider how much easier it would be to control a department chairman who is not versed in the p~imaiy discipline of his department. Are students best served tn thts way? I suspect not.

Back in October. students were able to enjoy one of the top comedians in the country with th'.e appearance of George Carlin. This p!lst weekend. the Rocky Horror Picture S/Jo.,,- was shown for the first time on campus. And. as part of this year's Winter Weet.end activities. a video dance will be held this Saturday in the gym. It is these types of activities that will gradually improve the social Jife here on campus--something students have complained about for years. I applaude the recently-formed Programming Board. whose efforts are truly beginning to pay off. However. so_me major obstacles regarding the coordination and success of such events still need to be overcome. For eiample. last semester I watched as e1-SG president Eric Chase plowed through miles of administrative red tape and opposition regarding the Carlin show. Apparently, a number of administrators felt that the content of the show would be "inappropriate" for a college audience. And this semester, the Programming Board successfully showed Rocky Horror. but only after prohibiting people from bringing food. etc .. into the show. Anyone who has ever seen Rocky Horror knows that bringing your own "props" is 901. of the fuA . (Fortunately, the student.s and faculty who au.ended found some creative ways to overcome that obstacle.) My point is simply this: If social life on campus is to continue to improve. both a.dtainistratioll and studeAts net 1t to forget tht; :• con sorvative altitudes r ea..rding what canth and e h c~-'luot be done . . Al. oug attitudes are beginning . to 1. ha11ge. the prevalent v~ew seems to be the one which sa1s. "We can't do that because its never b~eQ. done before." This is shown by the frequent closedmindedness of the admfoistration regarding progressive ideas an.d the unwiUingness of ma.ny students to give new activities a try. I realize that there are certain precautions that must be taken to protect college property during some events. However. one can hardly argue that a little water from Rocky Horror could possibly damage the gym or its occupants more than a BYOB gym party. as anyone who ever helped clean up after such a party will testify.

I get any one of an assortment of reactions. Many people stare at me as though I am some .tind of a freak, while others e1press their curiosity with a barrage of questions. I'm often interrogated vith questions such as: "Hov do you get any protein? Don't you ever crave a nice, juicy steak? Are you a vegetarian because it's against your religion to eat meat?" Needless to say, I have come to the conclusion that there are many videspread myths about us herbivores. When it comes to food, every individual has bis or her ovn personal li.tes and dislikes. That fact applies to vegetarians as veil. Among the strictest "veggies" are those vho refuse to eat red meat. fowl. seafood. fish, and even some dairy products. Others, probably the most common type. only stay avay from red meat and fovl. For the most lenie.nt. red meat is the only no-no. Because each of us bu preferences, c variations of e1ist.

I stro11gly believe that Wilkes CoUege does 11ot exist i11 a vacuum and am firmly conv.anced that certai11 issues connect us to a greater community; therefore, I have decided that this newspaper ought to have at least one reflection on the sadness that has gripped our natio11 this past week. I have pondered my own reaction to the news that seve11 lives were lost, Jitera.lly before our eyes. I have wondered why I should feel so much sorrow. Why does this grief seem to linger while reports of bombings, brutality, and murder occur every day? This one tragedy tangles with emotions from the past, present, and future. The space program was e:a:citing for many of us in our childhoods. As schoolchildren congregated around television sets last week, I remembered watching with my classmates while pioneer astronaut AUan Shepard was fired into space.

In addition, they were having a half price sale. so I paid a me.re two dollars for the skirt. Later. I priced a similar ski.rt in a department store. Its price was a.round $35. So, my s.tirt was a great bargain. Another excellent deal was a pair of ski pants. in exceJlent condition, sale-priced for S12J0. Where else can prices like that be found? A variety of women's clothing--including sweaters, pants, dresses. and skirts--is available at second-hand clothing stores. Men's and children's clothing can usually be found as well. While there are only a few of these shops in the WHt.es-Barre area, anyone who becomes really caught up in the usedclothing craze should make a visit to New York City, where there are second-hand shops galore.

Directed and choreographed by Dr. Michael O'Neill, the musical has a cast of tventy-nine. a stage band of four. and a pit band of sixteen. The musical director is Michael WilHams. the scenery director is Joe Harris, and lighting di.rector is Kious Holm . The play evolves a.round two parts that mesh to create a very interesting plot. One part is the "Cabaret," a very wild nightclub with many risque musical numbers, that comment on the action taking place in the outside world. The Cabaret's emcee will be played by John DomzaJski. The other part is the story of a.n American writer's stay in Berlin, Germany, during wartime . This man, Cliff Bradshav, vill be played by Bob Wachowski. In Berlin. he meets a British singer named SaJly Bowles, played by Kimberly Ba.rchok. They live in a boarding house run by Fraulein Schneider. who wiU be played by Karen Bradbury. Two other tenants are central characters of the play: a prostitute named Fraulein Kost. to be played by Bernie League, and a Jewish grocer, Herr Schultz, to be played by Brian Dorsey. While Cal>aret is a very entertaining play, it also has a message to put across to the audience . T.be musical comments on Nazi Germany and. at the same time, holds a mirror to the .rest of the world, warning that history can repeat itself.

When my dau1hter u.ted me why I must take a .math course to become an En1lish teacher. I responded with a detailed eiplanatio.n of the meu.i.01 of a "well-rounded" person, and I espoused the philosophy of an "educated" ,roman. . While the lastin1 benefits of literature for my engineer friend are obvious to me, I believe I .noticed a quizzical expression oa her face while I pondered the applicability of fi.llile uth.

However, I believe in the lecture I save my dau1hter: an educated perlOA needs to be •ellrounded. While I am still aot certaia eu.cUy how rmU..math naures into the macer plan of my life.

This way. the carefree and simple years-10.ne-by cu. be relived at a glance. The presence of such mementos may either alleviate or intensify any difficulties he may have in adjusting to colle1e. A student who suffers from chronic ho.mesict.ness will be tortured by his memories, whereas one who viev1 his meaorabilia with to.adness but teeps his hopes for the future in mind will find coaron in them.

This belief is not entirely true, but it does serve a purpose. A valuable lesson can be I think it may be said that there has been a lot of talk on learned from this. campus about the importance of communication and In today's society.- many openness among the constituents of the College .

But into the sea. Examples of this there seems to be some inconsistency between the are prevalent i.n actions of awareness of the .need for communication and the actual certain individuals and process by which thin·gs are accomplished . groups.

As I pointed out in College alcohol policy is just my first editorial. given the consequence of the Mission such a policy grounded in Statement and the disagreement surrounding its the "lemming philosophy." ratification, there seemed to be a disproportionate concern It is ugued by those who with process as opposed to result. Of course, this could be try to justify · these considered an isolated incident in which communication "lemmin.1" based activities and openness were overlooked in the process. that "if everybody else is As of January 17th, Wilkes has a new Associate Dean of doing it, it must be right."

And I do not lemming might give? By the doubt that this is a perfectly legitimate administrative same to.ten, we cannot decision, although the process by which this new position assume that just because was filled may have left something to be desired . For everybody else is doing example, an anonymous department chairman said, "We all something, it must be wrong . saw it coming." yet he had not been consulted. In fact this What we must do is step bac.t was true for at least one quarter of the department and loot at what is best for chairpeople . Certainly, nothing mandates such the college and for the consultation, but in light of the recent emphasis on individuals who mate up the communication and openness, it would seem to have been college community. We have appropriate . the objectivity to look at the Perhaps The Beacon could serve as an example in this lemmings, but do we employ situation. Though far from perfect, the staff is responsible the same objectivity to the as a group for ma.king most of the significant decisions. The new Wilkes College alcohol assumption is that the process of considering the various policy? Up until now. we opinions or viewpoints of the staff will yield more effective have not. Up until now. we results. This should remind one of the familiar cliche : Two have all been lemmings heads are better than one . At the very least. staff members marching mindlessly feel thattheir opinions are valuable and that they take part towards the sea. in the decision-ma.king process. There is one basic tenet But let us again hope that the lack. of communication that ties the new policy and openness surrounding the new Dean ·s position is to&ether with all of the other another isolated oversight.

As we come back to school after Christmas recess, we greet one another with stories of how we spent our time away My break was a delightful mixture of joyful reunions with . family, needed fellowship with friends. and welcomed rest and relaxation . My scattered family congregated once more. and our lives touched. Hugs from friends here and there stoked up my heart during that · tender time of the year. I spent several afternoons in front of the fireplace napping and reading a curious combination of D.R. Lawre.nce. Alice Walker. Jean Auel, and John Bunyan . I took walks with my family and ate breakfasts with some special friends. I hand-washed sweaters, wrote letters, organized closets, and cleaned out drawers. I felt like a whole person once more. unlike that fragmented student. mother. and wife who was frantically scribbling in blue books a month ago . I caught up with myself. and it felt good . Nevertheless. it was really pleasant to walk across campus o.n the first day of the semester. How nice it is to see familiar faces and catch up! Smiles seem softer and eyes look brighter. Even standing in line for class cards didn't seem quite as tedious as it ought to have . Buying boo.ks and stealing glances at texts other classes are reading brings a sense of anticipation. while .aulppins out the new semester offers a. fresh cha.Henge. It is a beginning--& fresh start.

It usually involves the use of intimidation and the abuse of pover. According to Lorusso, an official definition vill be compiled in accordance vith the school's policy and the national goverment's definition. Even though an official procedure has not been implemented yet for responding to sexual harassment charges, students are urged to report incidents to the Deans.

Season's greetings .from TheBeacon �PA.GE TY Editorial Reflections on semesterI helpful hints tor finals I believe the Wilkes College community would agree that it has been a rather long semester. The adm.i.nistratio.n has se.nt out its 2'.}7th memo. The 12th issue of The Beacon has hit the lobbies for the last time this semester. The faculty is buried up to its eyeballs i.n papers and exams. And the list goes on and on . But before -we say adieu to the 198'.} fall semester here at Camp Wilkies, we should take a moment to reflect upon a few happenings of this fall. Miraculously, the football team won its first opener since 1972. Wilkes adopted a new mission, and the question of Wilkes University arose. Admissions Dean Wuori suddenly resigned and the faculty retreated in the early part of the semester. The Nursing Department succeeded in getting its accreditation, but the members of the Programming Board failed in their attempt to express themselves intelligently in the last issue of The Beacon . And last but .not least, the formation of the Alcohol Task Force marked a new era of social activities at Wilkes. A.nd Wilkes students remained true to form in their total lack of response to the alcohol issue . Having taken a nostalgic look at the semester. we must now loot forward to the grim spectre of finals week. And bei.ng sensitive to the plight of students at this time. I have compiled a list of helpful suggestions. First of all. beware the inevitable hangover resulting from the 1'.} Christmas parties scheduled for the last day of classes. Second, keep i.n mi.nd that this is your big cha.nee to work hard for a week and a half so that you feel deserving of your mo.nth-long Christmas break. Third. do.n't forget the backpack mommy bought you when you we.re a f .reshman to lug all those u.nope.ned boo.ks to Stark to study for the first time. Also, the Stark Security would appreciate it if you would at least brush your hair before passing them after a.n all-.nighter. Fourth . dorm student should pay particular attention to the weird Caf hours lest Hilma shut those swinging doors o.n your nose when you're late . And finally, if your finals are scheduled through Friday , December 20th, you will have to deal with screaming students who are running th.rough the hallways and parking lots--they only had two finals and were finished by the first weekend . You may either ignore them or take rifle potshots at them from the roof of your dorm . Just .keep these helpful hints in mind and your life should be much more pleasant .next week. And don't forget to participate i.n the burning debate at Camp Wit.ties: To take an incomplete or not to take an incomplete; that is the question . Good luck! 'Someone got some Editor: started as.tin.g the student some questions. "What's the problem in the play? What's going on at the beginning? Who's present? Who .knows what's going on?" There was some space between questions so the student could respond. He verbally stumbled around a little. The professor pressed him after each faltering response, admonishing him to get closer to what was actually going on, to pin down what Oedipus is all about. He didn't let the student get away with the little pat answers every college student knows how to belch forth on a test. Staring into the student's face (which was no more than eighteen inches f tom .bis own.). he made him pay It happened. Here at Wilkes College . In a faculty member's office in 'Kirby Hall. Someone got some education . Actually, that's not really a startling statement. After all. this is a college, and education is its business. But this little incident which occurred in that office might be worthy of particular note . A student came to talk to his professor (one of my officemates). Apparently the student is.n't doing all that well in this teacher's class. and he wanted to .know vhat he could do to improve . The two started talking about that old Greek standby. Oedipus Tyra.nnus by Sophocles. one of the works studied i.n the course . This is the time the student got some education. The professo.r stared intently at the student. He attention to all the little details He made him see that general statements that don't cut to the truth are.n 't sufficient- -and, indeed, are shoddy thinking at best. totally wrong at not only I.his. but the student place details into a larSwor.k., into Lhe w itself, so he could Oedipus was all without seam or real and the way together. And the started to see both. That's education. It's hoped Lhat interdisciplinary being worked on Wilkes will provide this real edu · Wilkes students. If their coming is If, however, they invite students IO vague generalities slightly wider pi stick llilh the courses which haft that they ca11 do used properly. Respectfully. D.W.Evans VOL.

Wilkes College purchased the -building from Edward Morris in 1949. Up until the time of the 1972 flood, the house served os the residence of j the first president of the College, Eugene S. Farley. i The building is named after a lote member of the Boord of Trustees ond o benefactor of the Co 11 ege. Current 1y the structure serves os the home for several offices. l proximately 20 percent of the enrollment in the Wilkes Engineering Department-high by any coed institution's standards. The women themselves feel that this is due to the attitude and reputation of the department. "Women in engineering are called ·non-traditional students' at some schools. but nobody gives that impression at Wilkes . We are si.mply students trying to get the best tra1n1ng tor our profession, and we get that regardless of whether we are male or female ," says one student. The Engineering Depart- . ment's record for finding employment for graduating women proves their success. Recent graduates are now working for major corporaations such as OWensIllinois. Eaton Corporation. IBM, and Texas Instruments. Joan Thomas. a 1983 graduate with a degree in Electrical Engineering , is now a systems engineer with OWens-Illinois. She sees the strength of the Wilkes engineering program as "its project work and work. I fell confi knowledge going · field." Like the female undergrad felt no bias against woman engineer. I never gave it [be' in a male professi thought. There vu distinction betw and female studellll department, so Idida any distinction 011 There really has problem." Wilkes College have always had a for being well-pre eminently qualifi that women are growing force v· field. Wilkes' engineers are gaill' reputation in th right. But if the Wilkes have their lines of distinction will erased in the p world, as they have the College--that is can stop being sur them �PAGE SEVEII eating: how big a problem? leg ; had ell-p qu are eg in if th ve t r lhal time again . are beginning to e pressure buill aeed to be finished, to be read, and s are just around er.

In addition, the large size of most core classes as compared to upper-level classes often makes cheating more difficult to detect. 0 There should be an anonymous way to report cheating people so that the person reporting would not be exposed." If cheating does occur, it is only natural to as.k what methods of cheating are being used. Recently, much publicity has been given to cheating incidents in which students have been caught using high-tech communiication equipment to pass along answers during examinations. While this may occur at large universities. the oldfashioned methods of cheating seem to be most popular here at Wilkes. According to our survey. copying on exams and using crib sheets are by far the most popular methods. f acuity responses pointed to copying on tests as being the number one way for students to cheat. Faculty · also indicate that plagarism tends to be a major problem. although plagarism was rarely mentioned by students as a way to cheat. Using other students' computer programs. a type of cheating that is becoming OFTEN, 3% more popular. was also cited by both students and faculty With all these methods to cheat out there, one might wonder why even more students don't "jump on the bandwagon ." Perhaps it is because the punishment can be so severe. ranging from a "O on the particular exam or assignment" to "expulsion" from school. Or perhaps it is because many students (~7~) feel that cheating is simply wrong . What. if anything. should be done to prevent cheating? There are many ways to attempt to deter cheating in the classroom. One professor comments, "I feel that essay exams are an effective barrier to cheating ." But thal same professor admits, "Jts possible that cheating occurs without my knowing it " Perhaps the most effective deterent to cheating is simply for faculty to be on the lookout. According to the survey, 67% of the faculty feel that they patrol the classroom very closely during exams . However. only 40% of the students hold the same opinion . In fact, one student even comments. "Some professors just ignore it." One student suggests. "There should be an anonymous way to report cheating people so. that the person reporting would not be exposed ." Even if cheating is detected, a problem exists in that punishments are not consistent from one professor to the next. One professor even goes so far as to say that his punishment for cheating depends upon "what kind of mood" he's in. Another · faculty member comments that "it can be risky accusing someone of cheating when' it's that person ·s word against your own ." ... .. the old-fashioned methods of cheating seem to be most popular here at Wilkes.A-oto IMJ Brian Dorstlj In addition to "punishments," students contemplating cheating should be aware of the results of a nationwide survey of 100 Fortune 1000 executives. The executives were asked what employee behavior bothered them the most. The findings were published in a recent "Dishonesty ... topped the list of most objectionable behavior.· ....,......,.__ SOMETIME S, Career Services newsletter . According to the newsletter. "Dishonesty . . . topped the list of most objectionable behavior . If a company believes that a.n employee lac.ks integrity, all of that w1thm the last month 42% within the last year person 's positive qualities-from skill and experience to productivity and intelligence--become meaningless." Is cheating a major problem at Wilkes? It is difficult to say. Our survey does show that cheating does occur to a certain degree . However. whether or not the amount of cheating is substantial enough to warrant more research into the problem is questionable . Whether or .not to cheat is a question that everyone must as.k himself at one time or another. and .as final exams approach , more students will be asking themselves that question .

A video depicting Co-op life and produced as an in-house project at the College was recently aired on Channel 38 . Two former Wilkes students, Annette Winski and Tom McGuire . wrote the script, shot the footage. and edited the video tape as part of their senior project under the supervision of Academic Coordinator Dr. Bradford Kinney and technical engineer Carl Brigido. The video tape is being used as a recruiting tool. "It's being shown to businessmen and. on career days, to students." Dr. Iin.ney said. The Cooperative Educatio.n Office placed a total of 108 students with about employers during the 1984-198, academic year. The coop,e.ra.tive education placements for credit include volunteer as well paid positions. Cooperative Education provides employers with a reliable source of labor and students with an opportunity to work in. busin.ess. industry, and public service. The program monitors student interns through con.tact between. the College and the employers and between faculty evaluators and students. At the end of the semester, the faculty evaluator determines a grade based on the employer's evaluations and the student's journal and term project. Students work 15 to 3, hours a week. depending on the number of credits they are receiving. The program began in 1978. and the office is located on the third floor of the Annette Evans Alumni House . The program's slogan. "You earn a future when you earn a degree," says it all.

The Manuscript has sponsored many poetry .readings in the past, but for the first time people with muscial talents were invited and encouraged to participate. "We tried to coordinate an event that would utilize people with muscial talents," Sandy Long, editor of the Manuscript and event coordinator, said. "In the past, only poetry was read," stated Long. "If we introduced the music element into it, we could get even mo.re people involved." Bernie Mertz, an alumni of Wil.kes and a regular at Manuscript functions said that introducing music was great because "it broke down prevailing attitudes of and between the majors and their identities. Now they can identify with each other, together." Approximately -40 people attended the coffee house held at Mostly Books, located on South Main Street, Wilkes-Ba.rre . The proprietors say that they have held a lot of private parties at the store, but this was the first time they hosted a college event. "It seemed like everyone had a good time," said the proprietor. "As long as they are as well behaved as they were tonight, we'll probably do it again." A regular at Manuscript events for the past five years, Getle Collifls ,said that it was definitely "worth com.iflg 20 miles for." Mr. Collins is from Drums. PA. Ormond Long. father of student Sandy Long. was cooed iAto the limelight by his daughter and the audience . "My wife said if I got up here and did this she'd kill me," said Long. But he did anyway and entertained the audience with a humorous song titled "The Love Bug Itch." "If you're bitten by the love bug. you don't know where to scratch," he said. "At least if you' re bitten by a mosquito, you know where to scratch." D.r. Pat Beaman. Manuscript advisor, said, "It went over very well. Sandy's idea was terrific." The coffee house was attended by students from various departments, faculty, alumni, and people from the community. •· Inside this tssue: .Amnimla speaks up at SG meeting The concert seasoa is ll,ete Programming Board established Non:traditionals io meet �PAGE TWO Wanted Ill I Readers question Beacon's pu Beacon Distribution Manager(s) for Spring Semester.

Dear Editor: I applaud your efforts to point out problems on the campus because I honestly believe that is one of the positive services that a student newspaper is uniquely qualified to provide. I appreciate your willingness to take stands on controversial issues; that is why I shared one of your recent editorials with a colle1e-bound student and his parents when they posed questions about the alcohol policy on our campus. I agree with your condemnation of the kinds of behavior you described in your most recent editorial-- but I must object to the statement that you attribute to me in that same editorial as well as to the general connection you seem to be drawing between the admissions process and social behavior after students arrive on campus. I know that your on-campus readers will realize that I did not make that statement, and I am confident that your general readership will recognize that no Dean of Admissions would mate that kind of statement. I am concerned, however, that you have offended the 1reat majority of students on the campus, as veil as the Admissions Office staff that recruited them, to mate what appears to be a simple enough point: offensive and threatening ~i1;ii t..;e:Zi~~~~~~:: ;:h: \;. . . . . . . .,. . . .. ......]~{~;[;~:..,,;:;;_::::·.......... •· •·•· ·.~ ~~~1~{;nEi~~i ;~Jt81f2= Yours for a better Wilkes College, John F.

Three representatives from the Amnicola attended the meeting to discuss the continuing budget controversy. Mr. Richard Fuller. advisor to the Amnicola. stated that the Amnicola budget is lover this year than. it was last year. Eric Chase. Student Government President. asked if the Amnicola staff could raise money by selling ads. Fuller replied that last year they could only raise $850 from ads. Fuller explained that selling ads in this area isn't very easy. "There are a limited number of businesses, and so many people as.ting them for money." Fuller said. "What about a fuiid raiser?" Chase asked. Fuller explained that the Amoicola staff had sold refreshments . as a fund raiser at the George Carlin show. but the effort was not successful. Furthermore, Fuller added, "The yearbook staff should not be involved with fund r&1S1ng because Ill! Beacon doesn't do it. and neither does the Manuscript... Much discussion ensued. Fuller told SG members that the Amnicola staff vas also plan.ning to have a velour cover on the 1986 yearbook. This would raise the cost of the Amnicola $2 per yearbook. Chase stated that since at least 1700 yearboo.ts have to be ordered. this would raise the cost S3.'W0. That would bring the total cost of the 1986 Am.nicola to SZ7.830. 1.750 I J'otal SG budget · $87,500 are encouraged to attend. r-----_·cc···;.;;.;;;.;;·----., ________ _ I~ "".'

Fred Horgnn Kirby, nn Americnn merchnnt nnd bnnker, wns originally from Brownsville, N.Y. He eventually moved to Wilkes-Barre, where he opened his first five-and-ten cent store under the name of Woolworth and Kirby (For those interested history buffs, the name F. M. Kirby can still be seen above the fnmiliar ·woolworth's· sign at the store on South Hain Street). An example of the Gothic Revival style of eirchitechture, Kirby Hall has a large center hall with the principle rooms nrranged along the sides. When the College acquired the building, some of the furnishings eind much of the grandeur were retained from the yenrs the Kirby family resided there. At the time of the building's dedication, the College newspaper (the Bucknell Beacon) reported theit the walls of the main hall on the first floor were covered with scarlet brocade. Although the building sustained an estimated $200,000 worth of damage during the 1972 flood, most of the original beauty of the structure remains, including several large marble fireplaces, an ornate grandfather clock, and n huge wine cellar. One of the most interesting and prominent buildings on the Wilkes College campus is Kirby Hall. 1970, Kirby wos placed on the Pennsylv,mi8 Regis Historical Buildings. Currently, the structure houses the LDnguDge 8nd LI Department, the Academic Support Center, the Writing Language Lab, and one seminar room.

The. letter-writer 1s annoyed by the physical abuse she is subJected to at parties. And thil is ctrtainly understandable.

The problem is the admissions staadard at Wilkes. It is the "'~e'll take anythin1 that has tuition money" mentality.- The letter-writer states the problem quite succinctly by astin1. "Does the tuition that · these few people pay really mate up for the tut. of presu.1e here at Wlltes?" We thint not. Granted, times are difficult, particularly for small, private colleges. And our acting director of admlssio.ns has pointed out that because times are tou1h, it's Admissions' Job to fill classrooms with bodies rather than worry too mcuh about staadards.

Don't ill-mannered students attract other ill-mannered students? On the other hand, is it not reuonablt to theorize that a school with Yell-mannered student, will attract other Yell-mannered students? And the proverbial bottom line is that these students are here for the duration, even if Admissions adopted a nev policy tomorrow. These students speak in mon~syllables, shout obscenities across campus, rip up parting meters. and batter people at p&rties--whether they're drunt or not. The solution? Students who are ill-ma.nnered--that is! vho spit, 1ru.nt, u.d vho tnows what else--should be sent home to mother.

Yet so many Wiltes students assume so much to be true vithout asking for clarification of information. At a recent SG meeting, the members failed to ask for clarification of the facts that vere under discussion concerning the Am.nicola. (Yearbook) budget. The intent of this letter is to inform Student Government Name withheld and the student body about the Amnicola budget. The first and perhaps most important fact to understand is that our budget vas not approved last spring. In order to avoid extra costs and to meet production deadlines in good faith. we signed a forces of history vhich vi11 contract la.st May without a deepen our understa.nding of budget.

In arbitrarily cutting our proposed budget Christopher N.

What we do to improve or to weaken our relationships in each environment may literally determine whet.her there will be a viable future for human society. The implications for each of us as i.Jldividuals and for education will be explored. Dean Iaratash will discuss the capacities we have as human beings, including our spiritual energies, to shape a positive promising future. Born of Greek parents in Turkey during the Bal.tan Wars that helped trigger World War I. a scientist who made major contributions to technological advances during World War II. an Olympic athlete and a pioneer of the computer, John Iarakash combines a wealth of personal es:perience and a lucid understa.nding of the great budget cut unreasonable consider the ramifications this cut could have on the yearbook. Also in cutting our proposed budget, SG vill force us to breach our production contract. It must also be addressed that at a cost of $27,8,0.00, the quality of the proposed 1986 yearbook .is far from being "Much higher th8A it needs to be." (Refer to Beacon article "Amnicola. asts for $26,000," 11/07/8:5, p. 3). There are smeen pa,es of color vhich have been included in many of the past yearbooks. SG has suggested cutting out the color section and reducing the number of pages. Certainly. this is a viable alternative. however. it vould drastically reduce the pictorial impact of our boot. The yearbook is meant to be a photojournalistic representation of the college vhich is viewed by parents, prospective students, and private citizens of the community. Granted, when some students first receive a yearbook, it's not alvays received with the greatest enthusiasm, but its value increases over time. SG also suggested selling ads. The Amnicota staff hopes to sell about SZ.000.00 in ads. But this amount cannot be entirely relied upon because local businesses ~ady contribute financially to the coUege. Last year. only one campus organization bought an ad. Therefore, SZ,000.00 is a goal to reach for but is perhaps not entirely realistic. We hope this letter .bas clarified any questio1ls that have -been raised concerning the Amnicola budget. The Am.nicola staff is requesting $26.2:50.00 (17'() x Sll.00) so that we may meet our contractual obligation as well as maint&iJl the quality of this publication.

Many of the buildings are examples of major architectural styles of the nineteenth century and early to mid twentieth century. Three of the oldest buildings on campus are Mdlintock Hall, Catlin Hall, and Sturdevant Hall. These three structures, which were erected in the 1840s, are. representative of the Greek Revival. This style is characterized by smooth exterior walls and low · pitch roofs. Sterling Hall, which was built in the late 1860's and early 1870's, shows the Italinate influence. Large brackets under the roof overhang and· stuccoed exterior walls are common features. The eclectic Queen Anne style, which characterizes many buildings in this area, can be seen in Chesapeake and Delaware Halls and most noticably in Weiss Hall. This style is noted for its irregularity of plan, multiple roofs that are steeply pitched, windows of varying forms, and a round or polygonal tower. Some of the buildings which were built in the twentieth century are · actually revivals of older styles. For example, Wec.kesser Hall, which was built between 1914- 1916, is an example of the Gothic Revival as are Kirby and Barre Halls. The President's house and Doane Hall are influenced by the ausic Revival. Finally, and perhaps the most recogniuble architectural style, is the Tudor Revival style which may .be seen in WIller Hall, Chase Hall, and the Annette Evans Faculty and Alumni House. Evidence ol this is the half-timbering on the e1terior walls. --------------------Jll,l ' Yei11 Rall. a female residence haU �PACiB Bl Kingston CRITTERS NOTICE!

Do you remember how lousy you felt after you finished your test? The reason for this feeling is that sleep is of vital importance to everyone. Sleep helps recuperate your body after a hard day workin1 out or from just the strains of everyday livin1. Since recuperation is one of the vital elements in creating strength, energy, and well-bein1- and steep is one of the requirements of recuperation, a few vords on how to sleep well should be of interest to anyone who leads an active life. Also •. don't forset that sleep takes up about a third of our lives. Any number of situations. good or bad, can cause sleeplessness. For example. geUi.ng a new car or the threat of Callins a class can both lead to insomnia. I would rather it be the first There are a number of different of things which can make you an insomniac. Many people believe that a stu1 of booze will initi&lly make you sleepy, but it's effect on the nervous system three hours later may mate steep difficult Also. turning in before your habitual bedtime so you will be well rested for the following day may only lead to a restless night. Sex before sleep. thou1h reluing may also result in a sleep defeating high. Regular exercise is the best natural relaunt, but if done too strenuosly or too close to bedtime can overstimulate your mind and body and keep you avate. The best temperature in which to sleep in is around 6l degrees. If the mattress seems too hard or son, try a waterbed. This type of bed is very reluing but until you get used to it. be prepared for some difficulty in changing positions. 1/ool fleece sheets are very comfortable to sleep otl. The fleece cushions the body, relieving pressure points at the knees, hips. and shoulders. The dense pile allows air to circulate utlder the body for greater warmth ifl the winter and coolness ifl the summer. What you eat before bedtime can also be very important. Coffee and cigarettes adversely affect your sleep because of their caffeine and flicotine. Sleeping pills produce a poor quality of sleep. and the attempt to withdraw from them results in insomnia. Regular exercise is the cure for all sleeping troubles. Exercise makes it just as easy for you to get up in the morfling as it does for you to fall asleep at night. Your sleep and Yake cycles are thus better syflchronized.

The acreditation vill have the biggest impact on nursing majors vho vish to go on to graduate school. "You can't go on to grad school unless you graduate from an NLN accredited undergraduate program," Nehring said. For nursing majors vho do not go on to grad school. graduating from an accredited school . vill improve their employment potential. Having an NLN accredited nursing program vill also draw more federal and state financial aid for the College. And accreditation will attract more potential nursing majors to Wi1kes. Finally. seeking accreditation promotes the building and maintenance of a quality program. "If you have a rotten program. you wouldn't go up for accreditation." Nehring said. The Wilkes Nursing Department has received accreditation since 1978. Nehring e:s:plaio.ed that the procedure for acquiring accreditation requires the investment of much time and wort. According to Nehring. the procesa i.o.volved seve.r&l steps. The entire Nursing Department and the administration had to get together to decide the feasibility of receiving accreditation. Next. the department began an intensive selfstudy which identified the strengths and weaknesses of the program. And a goal was set to improve any weaknesses. The final self-report study, totaling 454 pages, vas submitted to the NLN in October, 1984. The NLN then sent two experienced nursing educators to the campus to investigate the program in detail. They interviewed students and faculty, vent through the program continued on page 3 it) Blood- cl rive being held today by Mary Supey A blood drive will be hel on Thursday, November 7, in the college gym from 10 a.m. to-tp.m. A goal of 300 pints has been set by the local Red Cross.

The burning qu8stionl The burning question of the semester. as far as The Beacon goes. is "Why don't we get any communication from the campus?" And when I say communication. I mean everything f.rom a letter to the editor to a crank ca11 on ou.r answering machine to mutilated and defiled Beacons hanging f.rom t.rees. They say that a newspaper should stimulate campus discussion. But thus fa.r. we haven't discussed anything. So, I fi.rst questioned the importance and .relevance of ou.r news and features stories. In general, I consider them to be .relevant if not of ea.rth-shatte.ring importance. And fo.r the most pa.rt. sports is sports. (If you disagree. then w.rite a lette.r.) And the question is thus fa.r unanswered. My second tactic was questioning the interest of my editorial topics, a subject I can ce.rtai.nly discuss at great length. Although I suspect that the great majority of students do not .read the editorials, I would think that the remaining 10~ of the campus could appreciate most of the editorials. Yet the.re is no .response. Twice now, I have attacked Student Government. And when you consider that SG members a.re probably among those who .read the editorials if for no other' reason than self-defense. and that student leaden. in gene.ral, a.re e:ipected to be mo.re vocal than "regular" students. their silence is not warranted. They don't even sneer at me on campus. Ironically, I also wrote an editorial praising the value and wo.rth of a dialogue between the campus and The Beacon. So much for that. But the most sobering reality came this past week when I actually advocated a dry campus and got no response! I thought that a discussion of alcohol. or the lack of same. would produce some so.rt of .response f.rom the students. if .not the faculty or administration. And. typically, the.re was .no .response. The.refo.re, the only conclusion I could possibly make is that my editorials are written so concisely and with such overwhelming evidence in favor of my arguments. that .no one dares to challenge them. By the way, if you disagree, write a letter. But could it be that l'm simply not discussing the issues that Wilkes College wants to talk about? Well, I could lobby for weekly faculty meetings as an effective faculty morale boost. Or I could advocate the return of tuna croquettes to the Caf. O.r bette.r yet. I could officially invite the Cellar "spitters" to spread out their ca.rd game to the fi.rst floo.r of the Student Cente.r. So this brings me back to the stiH unanswered bu.r.ning question, "Why don't we get any communication from the campus?" And my final response is to keep printing The Beacon and the editorials in the hope that one day I may hea.r a crank call on our answering machine. or bette.r yet. receive a real. ho.nest-to-God. letter to the editor. 1---------- - ------------1 111 Wanted ••• Beacon Copy Editor Basic knowledge of grammar and spelling required.

Diabetes. by Bruce Goldfarb COLLEGE PARK, MD (CPS) Four present or former University of Maryland students we.re arrested earlier this month after police and animal shelter wardens discovered a grizzly cache of mutilated animals at their house near the campus. The students, who may have been part of a bizarre cult, say they took the animal carcasses from university labs, but campus officials say the.re's no vay to prove it. Warden Mickey Shaul secured a search varrant after a neighbor reportedly saw a cat's head hanging from a tree in front of the house. Police found 29 cat heads floating in a "foul smelling liquid" in a 55-gallon drum. Sources also say the pelts of cats, goats, rabbits and dogs were found stapled i.o walls and floors in the house. Police also found a vest made from cat and rabbit hide, and jars containing amputated legs and clavs of a cat, a rabbit and its new born baby, rats and lizards. Shaul said investigators found "satanic" paintings and devils' faces painted on the doorknobs. Police arrested students Lauren McEle.ney 21. Paul R. Clark. 30. and Tania M. Sd.nto, 20. and charged them with cruelty to animals and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute. Former student Mart R. Belle, 25. James E. Burke.25. and Louis M. Belle, 25. were also arrested on the same charges. McEleney was quoted in a local newspaper as saying "all the cat things" were "were left over carcasses from a zoology experiment" at the university. In a recent interview. she confirmed the carcasses came from the school. adding there is "definitely another side to the story." She dt .lined to elaborate. UM zoology department chairman John Corliss says it is "possible" and "credible" the carcasses vere "borrowed" from the university. "Even if they turn out to be preserved specimens, you stiH couldn't prove that they were ours," Corliss says. "We don't put a stamp on them vhen ve use them for teaching." Police acknowledge it is possible the animals were dead when the students obtained them . If they we.re. the cruelty to animals charge viU be dropped. they say. Q.

Oace upo.n. a time, it was thou1.ht that only .middleqed American housewives could be biUen by the soap opera bu1. Now it is quite clear that this addiction .has reached beyond the kitchen and into our schools. our offices, and our factories. As a mauer of fact, just about anywhere you loot. during the day vhere there is a televisio.n. set. you vill see someone sitting in front of it vith his eyes 1lued to his favorite soap. And please, for your own safety, don't interrupt him. Hardcore soap fans 1et quite upset if they are disturbed while indulgin1 in their favorite habit. Phrases li.t.e "Did you watch so and so yesterday?" and "What do you thin.t. is goin1 to happen on so and so today?'' are rapidly gaining on "How 'bout this weather?" as America's .number o.n.e conversation starter. I would even go so far as to say that ve now can add soap operas to that sacred list of c.herished American ideals: bueball, hot do9e, a99t. i,iei, Chevrolet, and soap operas. I admit it. Even I enjoy following these daytime dramas. However. this was not always the case. There was a time in the not so distant past vhen I avoided soap operas lite the plaaue. I would much rather vatch some silly 1ame show. I made fun of those people who vere addicted to soaps and I bragged that it would never happe.n. .to me. Then it happened. It started slowly: an occasio.n.&1 G,uur al Hospital or a little All My CJJildr ,u1 . Evenw&lly I was shocked to find myself r ushing to the TV set every day and frantically flippi.n.g • from one show to another. I even began watchi.n.g two or even three shovs during one time period. But I've curbed my appetite for soaps now, and I limit myself to maybe two or three shows a day. Although soap watchers are a relatively soft-spoken 1roup, they are definitely out there. My high school guidance counselor once told me of an incident in which a girl requested to drop an advanced class w.hich was held after re1ular school hours because she would miss her "General Hospital." Being a die-hard soap fan himself, he granted the request. Maybe soaps are so popular because they contain the glamour. romance, and adventure that so many of us feel we may be lac.ting in our own lives. Maybe soaps are so popular because we can identify with the characters and discover their strengths and weaknesses over a lo.n.g period of time. the same way we do with a real Hfe friend. Whatever the reason. soap operas have become a big part of many people's lives. I'm sorry to have to end this article so abrupty, but "Days of Our Lives" is co.ming on, and I have to find out if Pete and Melissa found the final clue leading to the treasure. Alcohol: not a problem in itself , by Sandy Platt Statistics show that three out of every four college students drink alcohol. Despite the fact that this figure is so high, many swdents are unaware of euctly what alcoh ol is and hov it affects the body. Alcohol is a drug . It is one of the most widely used drugs .t.nown to man. and it affects the body in many vays. In the stomach. alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throu1hout the body. The rate that alcohol is absorbed depends upon the .t.ind of alcohol and the contents of the stomach at the time the alcohol is consumed. For Hample. the more food in the stomach, the stover the rate of absorption vill be. Contrary to popular belief, drinking coffee. taking showers or doing vi1orous exercise has no effect on the rate that alcohol is metabolized. In the liver, alcohol changes to water. carbon dioxide and energy. In the brain. alcohol slows the thought processes by numbing brain cells. The more alcohol you consume, the more brain cells are affected. The physical effects of drinking alcohol include an increased heart rate. higher st.in temperature. loss of muscle control and hangover miseries (fatigue, nausea and headaches). Alcohol also impairs jud1ment. affects one's ability to think and reason and causes poor concentration . AU of these effects depend upon the amount of alcohol consumed. the setting in wJiich it is consumed. and the body size and tolerance of the drinker. Intoxication itself has five stages. The first is the "happy" stage, in vhich the drinker becomes rewed ud tal.t.ative.

I do have a wonderfully supportive network of friends and neighbors who have helped out when there have been early dismissals and school breaks. but asking even a good friend to look out for three kids for two hours twice a week for an entire semester is stretching even the best friendship a little too far.

PA 11766 -- No.9 November 7. 1985 ~ •!-.:- · • Fun and Fitness The myths by Bill Buzza Are you constantly the brunt of fat jokes? Do people .ridicule you because you.r waist size exceeds your I.Q.? Well, nobody lit.es to be fat, especially these days. We cannot escape the fact that we discriminate against overweight people. Try getting the choice job if you have trouble fitting into your interview chair. O.r worse yet getting stuck in it and having to be cut out! You a.re seeing fewer fat executives these days. Gluttony is out, slim is in. Everyone is adapting to the fitness lifestyle. Countless executive fitness journals lay down guidelines for the welfare of ou.r business and civi~ leaders. For example, Prt:siden_t Re~an regularly trains with weights. So does Gary Hart. And former President Carter jogs daily. It seems that to be successful, one must be slim. It isn't that we do not lite fat people, it just seems that they do not fit in with America's passion for slimness. For this reason, fat people are constantly being condemned. Come on, don't tell me you never yelled "Whale on the beach!" when walking past a fat person trying to tan. And with and almost 100 million Americans being ove.rweight, you had bette.r believe that the.re are alot of fat jokes flying around! The.re is still hope fo.r those of you who "sit around" the house. Obesity does not have to be permanent, although the typical diet tract .reco.rd would make you think so. But it seems that people a.re slowly beginning to lick the fat problem. In this article I would like to show you some or the myths and facts about fat. So, th.row away that candy ba.r and read on! The first myth that I will shed some light on is that fat is not a metabolic problem. Your metabolism is the speed at which your body burns up calor~es. . It is a totally physiological proces_s. Fat people . have differe~t metabolisms than thin people. You all know of people who can eat an en.ti.re cow and not gain an ounce, while others just look at food and gain ~O pounds. This can be due to the .amount of active "brown fat" that the body contains. There is a greater amount of this active brown fat in thin people than in fat people. Only about one percent of the body's fat is brown fat. The .rest is yellow fat which is facts .relatively ine.rt. metabolically speaking. Secondly, hormones that direct energy consumption are mo.re active in thin people. Fat people seem to always be hungry. This can be attributed to the fact that certain hormones carry faulty appetite messages to the b.rain. One must also .remember that fat people store calories easily and burn them sparingly. Thirdly, the sodium-potassium pump wo.r.ts more efficiently in thin people. This pump is what helps .regulate proper muscle contractions. Each body cell has its own pump and works continually to maintain a sodium-potassium balance. This is a very important process and consumes many calories. This pump wo.r.ks less efficiently in fat people and .results in mo.re sto.red calories .· . AU . in all. being f~ establ!shes ,metaboltc function~ that k~ep you f~. On the_brighter _side. there 1s undeniable. evidence now that . ~xercise and proper nutrttion c_an help .reverse these functions. . . Anothe.r:myth 1s blam1~g your obesity on family tendencies as an excuse. The about fact is. that if your parents are fat, you have up to an 80 percent chance of becoming fat yourself. But, I am not saying that this is an inherited trait. This can easily be attributed to your environment. Many of your eating and activity patterns can be developed by you.r parents. Also, any rapid weight gain causes an increase in the numbe.r of fat cells, which, once formed, stay with you for life. A weight-loss .regimen may reduce them, but they secrete an enzyme called protein lipase that tells your body to restore them to full size. Staying thin after reducing is not easy, because millions of extra fat cells a.re demanding their former status. For this .reason, it is extremely important to stick to your diet and fitness schedule even after you have reached your goal. Another myth is that the emotional and psychological make-up of fat people causes them to eat mo.re . The fact is that the.re has been no differe.nee found between thin and fat people psychologically and emotionally. It is clear that overeating and inactivity keep you fat and getting fatter. So .remember if you like to eat &lot, you b better work out awfully h or start looking for a n ward.robe! The last myth that shall look at is frequen used: fat people have no,· power. On the con many fat people religiously over long peri of time. Some lose wei and others do not. even nea.r-sta.rV&tion levels. ille I said befo exercise remains the sln most effective st&bil' · ractor in losing m&i.o.t&i.ning body weight. you increase your exerc' time and reduce your calo intake comfortably. wei can be lost slowly. permanantly.

Our alcohol policy has been discussed by the /1'/Jera/ arts administration in hushed tones for a number of years. And typically, the students have blamed the administration for any IYitJse 5rude~ were attempt to control alcohol consumption on campus. But the a/ePl?o/ ~ol~ .reasons behind the administration's paranoia are clear. Furthermore, it is a healthy sign to see these .reasons being discussed openly in the first Task Force meeting. Although this statement was never made in the meeting, it is impossible for the Colle1e to continue their current alcohol policy. In fact, it is impossible for the College to maintain any alcohol policy which allows underage drinking. This .reality becomes inescapable when one .reads the letter ~ distributed at the Tast Force meeting. Arthur J. Shuman, Jr., lawyer and private consultant to colleges and universities, author of much of Pennsylvania's drunk driving legislation, and the author of the aforementioned letter, offers the following information: "Colleges and universities that either permit the consumption of alcohol by minors, or fail to enunciate and enforce a vigorous policy forbidding underage drinking. will be deemed to have 'permitted' undera,e drinking ." Furthermore, because any action <or inaction) which permits underage drinking is criminal, insurance companies are forbidden by law to insu.re a negligent college. Thus, Wilkes College is facin1 uninsured liability every weekend. The following error Shuman included in his letter seyeral e:1amples of lawsuits appeared in the October 24ith against Pennsylvania coJleges and universities. One issue of The Beacon. In the Pennsylvania university was Nrequired to pay S~.000.000 to the editorial, the Student families of three minor students who died in a drunk driving Activities Di.rector is Amy accident following a cocktail party at a professor's home." Wiedemer, not Widemer. We Another Pennsylvania colle1e "was sued for $3,000,000 because polog.ize for our error. a minor student got drunt at a dorm 'keg' party and later had a..,.__________.,. drunk driving accident .resulting in tflo deaths. The theory of the case is that the presence of tflo RA's at the party gave it official sanction." A thi.rd Pennsylvania university was "sued for an amount in excess of $1,000,000 because a minor student · • bec~e. intoxicated at ~ ~or~ ~!'-"1Y and fell down a stairwell, O IC sustauung permanent 1nJur1es.

Unfortunately, though, the College does .not in.ate this fact .known to its 21-year-olds. Typically though . faculty and students often become quite sympathetic to the administrative point of view vhe.n they're informed of their pe.rso.nal liability. as Shuman points out in his letter. Apparently to deal vith the current situation. President Breiseth has distributed a memo to the campus. Students articles, should pay close attention. to its points. because they have serious ramifications. First. the Task Force vill retu.rn its letters, .report to the President in 60 days; thus. undoubtedly ve vill announce ments, have a new policy by the beginning of the next semester. advertisements, etc. Second. one of the Task Fo.rce's objectives is to g&the.r ideas for soci&l activities that have no connection vith &lcohol. And must be submitted thi.rd. any violators of the CoUege's rules will be punished. to whereas disciplinuy action in this area has been rather relaxed in. the past. The Beacon In light of the frightening leg&! facts. a "dry" campus is by the only conceivable alternative. And given that one lav suit Monday could put Wilkes out of business. it is the administration's S:00 p.m. responsibility to "go dry." Just so, it -is the student's at responsibility to accept this decision and eve.n support it. One might remind students that a degree from an institution that the failed financially. especially due to a lavsuit. is not latest. particularly useful. ~t "!hey 'cl dr1n_k and -fhey 'd dr//lt,) ...

M!IDl)IIJ(IOUIJ'r t t t t . t •1 t t RE: October 2.f, 198, Colte1e Policy on Consumption of Alcohol Wilkes College aims to provide an educational and residential environment 'Which is secure, conducive to scholarship and offers a wholesome opportunity for personal growth. Use -- and potential abuse -- of alcohol is an abidin1 concern to everyone involved with the Col1e1e: students, faculty, administrators, and parents of students. Beyond personal considerations, however, is the issue of liability to the College itself. , Accordinglyt_I draw to the attention of every member of the Wilkes Coflege f"8ll1Y .the dear statement regarding alcohol which appears in the Student-Handbook. Further, as a result of heightened concerns expressed to me -- especially by students and faculty -- I am requiring the Dean of Student Affairs and the Director of Residence Life and their staffs to observe stricUy the Handbook's provisions on alcohol. An essential part of education is learning to live by rules. Team playing, concern for others, self-discipline are acquired lite stills. Those who break rules should be aware that there an consequences. In this spirit, then, it should be clear beyond doubt that those found in violation of the College's rules should e:ipect disciplinary action. In the belief that College rules in this important area can be most effectively influenced through policy development involving all sectors of the campus, I am appointin1 a representative committee of students,_faculty, administrators to conduct an immediate revinr of the CoUe1e's alcohol policy and how it is understood and observed. The committee will also recommend to me any clarification or modification necessary to assure that the alcohol policy and its implementation will meet the educational mission of the College and remain in compliance with the laws of the City of Wiltes-Barre and of the CommonTealth of Pennsylvania. It is my charge to the committee that it consider the entire spectrum of college life as its palette. Much needed an positive and creative opportunities for social activities which are neither dependent on alcohol nor ha.ve alcohol as an essential element. It is expected that the committee will return its report to me within 60 days. The members of the College community who have agreed to serve are: Charles Abate, Paul Adams, Bob Bohlander, jerry Campbell, Eric Chase, Jim DeCosmo, Neil Douris, Alex Kassay, Jane Lampe, Charles McCoy, Edward Moriarty, Nancy Nally, Debbie Pavlico, Jim Rodechto, Tony Shipula, Jill Van Loan, Amy Wiedemer, and Phil Wingert. George Ralston, Dean of Student Affairs, and the President will serve as ex officio members. Anyone in the Wilkes community wishing to offer an opinion, suggestion, or view on this important discussion is encouraged to contact a member of the committee, or to attend any open meetings which may be held. , ~*•••••••••••••••••*••• ,ft · fl, fl, fl, ft, -if, ft, -------... * ft, +., ft, ft, ft, f '1"I" ft, Y"'-'----__..--·~-- ft HILLSIDE PARMS tiICB ctlAII STOU Boscov's Lower Level aaoss from the deli open: 10-9 Mon.-Sat. 12-5 Sunday With this coupon, receive S.50 off on a small or large Sundae • • at Bi1111de Paras Ice aeam -if.

At most gym parties in the past, students ve.re alloved to bri.ng either one si.l'.-pac.t of bee.r o.r a bottle of vi.De i.nto the party.

On Tuesday, October 22. the Dorothy Dickson Darte Center for the Pe.rfo.rming Arts was filled beyond capacity to celebrate its twentieth anniversary. Alumni from around the country gathered to perform on this occasion. Although the CPA is the only theater today's Wilkes students .tnov, the College had a differe.nt theater at first. Before the CPA vas built. plays vere _performed in Chase Theater. vhich vas located behind Chase Hall. This theater vas an old carriage house transformed into a playhouse. It had the capacity to seat 120 people tighUy. The theater vas always packed for performances. The need for a larger. more modern theater vas obvioqs. 0.ne _person who attended performances at Chase Theater vas a voman named Dorothy Dickson Darte. Mrs. Darte vas a real theater enthusiast, and she donated the money needed to build the nev theater. And a sizeable amount of money it vas. Originally, the estimated cost of the .new building vas $600,000. However, after Dr. Eugene S. Farley, WH.tes's first president. held a dinner in Konor of Mrs. Dute. Al Groh. the di.rector of the theater. explained that the new theater should really have such things as a hydraulic stage and air conditioning. Then the estimate went up to around S1 million. Nevertheless. Grob bad the go ahead to build the nev theater the next day. The land the CPA is on was deeded to Wilkes College by the Wyoming Valley Society for the Arts. Then construction began. By October l96l the building was complete. and in November the first play vas performed on the new stage. The theater was designed by Donald Penglaser. and the architects we.re Lacy. Atherton. and Davis. a local firm . All construction vor.t. vas done by Sordoni Construction Company. Nov that the building was complete. it vas necessary to insure that programming would be available. A foun- dation vas established by Mrs. Annette Evans to assist the Center for the PerformArts in procuring cultural activities. More building vas yet to be done. In 1969. the music building. Darte Hall. was added. Once again. the $1 million needed to build the complex was donated by Mrs. Darte. The architects and builders vere the same as for the CPA. and William Gasbarro. then chairman of the Music Department. helped design the nev music building. Unfortunately, a fev years after construction was completed, reconstruction vas needed. In 1972. lite many other buildings in Wyoming Valley. the CPA and Darte Hall vere damaged by flood waters from the Susquehanna River. The CPA lost eight .rovs of seats in the theater. v.hile the basement and first floor of the music building were inundated. Gasbarro and his dog stayed in the music building and moved pianos out . of the basement to protect them from damage. Both the CPA and Darte Hall were deaned up and repaired quietly, and both ve.re ready for the start of the academic year in September. Of course. both buildings are still going strong today. serving Wilkes and the community. Thanks to Mrs. Dorothy Dickson Datte. many College performing groups and local commu.nity groups have a beautiful place to perform. The construction of the Center for the Performing Arts (top} was made possible through the contributions of Mrs. Dorothy Dickson Darte (bottom}. �PAGI SIYD pl~, Wilkes College Theatre through the years Wittes CoUege Concert Band .v• f ''<<..

The Albright College Lions were the victims as the Colonels came from behind to score an impressive 33-23 victory at Ralston Field. In the first half. Wiltes looted as though it would blow Albright right off the field. Junior quarterback Brad Scarborough threw two touchdowns in the half; the first was to runningbact Dave Massi, while the other was brought in by wide receiver Tony DiGrazia. Dan IoJu also added a 37-yard field goal in the half., With the third-quarter score ,reading 19-3 in favor of Wiltes, it looted as though the game was in hand. However. Albright had other plans. injury An to Albright Scarborough and some costly turnovers switched the momentum toward the Lions. By the end of the third quarter, Albright had reeled off 20 unanswered points. a.nd Wiltes ,,.. in a ball 1ame. T.raUin-g 23-19 late in the fourth quarter. it vas time for Brad Scarborough to mate another appearance. The Colonels' signal-caller marched his troops 73 yards dovn field to dirt. The Lions drive culminated in a fiveyard pass to Tony Digrazia. his second of the day. The two-point conversion by Dave Massi made the score 27-23.

I vould like to co.o.gratulate the Colo.o.els football team for another fine victory last Saturday. I would also like to hand out tissues to all of the St. Louis fus. While ve are o.n the subject of baseball, the "loser of the week" award was a tie between Whitey Herzog and Joaquin Andujar. People like - then give professio.o.al sports a bad name. Well. enough of that. Nov that Daylight Savings time is he.re, many people who used to run duri.o.g the day are going to be cast into darkness. Because of this. quite a few vill probably stop running for fear of gettiJlg hurt. Never f earl In this article I will give you .run.o.ers some advice o.o. hov to run safely after dart. The first commandment for night running is to t.now thy course. Never take a .night run o.n an u.o.familiar course. Always run somewhere that you have been over during the day. Buckled paveme.o.ts, cracked sidewalks, tree roots and curbs can turn a running course in.to an obstacle course. Knowi.o.g the course can save you from possible injury. The most dangerous nighttime hazard to runners comes from automobiles. Be defensive when ru.o.ning; never assume that the driver sees you. This is a good rule to follow during the day and becomes essential at night. You should stop at intersections. cross drivevays carefully ud listen for the sound of automobile eAgines. Obeying this rule can save you from becoming a hood ornameAt. An.other very important rule is to vear light-colored clothing. If practical. vear some type of reflective strip on your clothes to mate you more visible. A driver cannot be expected to avoid vhat he cannot see. Brightly colored nylon shirts can be purchased for around St,. A good .rule for vomen is to run vith a companion. Running through certain sections of town or past regular hang-outs can be dangerous because of the presence of potential attackers. Your best bet is to use a course that avoids trouble spots. Also. never assume that you can outrun u assailant, especially at night. vhen your need for help may go unseen and unheard. When overtaking pedestrians from behind. it is a good thing to var11 them of Intramural flq football action Standin1s: your approach. A simple I L I "excuse me" is quite ·o 0 Mooseheads sufficient.

O.o.e does .not have to be an athlete for this to occur, aJthouah athletes are the most litely recipie.o.ts. Anyone who worts out with any intensity will most litely feel muscular fatiaue . Everyone is always trying to improve on his physique. For this reason, more and more intense traini.o.g routines are being used. However, .no matter how successful a method was whe.o. you first started usi.o.g it, constant use can, i.o. the long .ru.o., brina o.o. injuries. The most discouraging thin& is that injuries need rest.and this takes away from your trainina time. One of the main ways that people achieve muscular fatigue is by using mwmum weiaht (9C>-100 percent) in their training routines. Such routines are typically used by powe.rlifters, but .now almost everyone is using this method to increase stength. However, such workouts are en.remely taxing on the body. When performing this routine with hiah numbers of set, it can take the body two or three days to recuperate. Such workouts stress .not oiily the muscles. but also ligaments and tendons. If done for long periods of time. the stress can become too great for the body, and injury wiU occur. If you choose to go with this method of training, the best way to so about it would be for a cycle of no more than four to six wee.ts. After this amount of time. try some other type of training to give your muscles time for full restoration. Also. stretching is a good idea because prolo11.ged use of this method teit.ds to shorteit. your muscles. So. if you want to be able to comb your hair in a year or two, incorporate stretchina into your workouts. Another common way to get muscle f atiaue is by working your muscles to exhaust.ion. I.o. this method, very hi&h repetitions are do.o.e with low amou.o.ts of weight. This type of workout is popular with women, gymnasts and runners because it is very be.o.eficial for increases in strength and e.o.durance. This method is also tui.ng but lac.ts the stress on the te.o.do.o.s and ligaments. The best way to cope with muscle fatigue from this form of exercise is by resting one · day between workouts. This will give your muscles 4'8 hours to reach restoration. Another ' method for reachi.o.g muscle fatigue is by constantly placing stress on o.o.e muscle. 1.o. this method, o.o.e uses many differeat exercises, but with different levels of stress to the muscle, there is a more complete exhaustion of Ill the e.o.ergy supplied to the muscle. This type of trai.o.i.na is even more taxina than using maximum weight. Also, the effects of such workouts are similar to the going to exhaustion routine but more taxing. As a result. the worked muscle is muimally stressed. What this does is put you in a very veateaed state. To deal with this, recuperation must come quickly after the workout. Keep in mind also that pushing yourself past your limit doing this method of training will result ia injury. A good way to train intensively and teep from muscle fatigue injury is through a Dynamic Isometric RoutiAe. This can be done with or without weights. The resistaAce used is suhmu!m&I, but because of the en.remely slow movement together with holding positio.o.s i.o. the fuU ru.1e of movement, your muscle remains co.o.tracted all the time. This will lead to a maximum contraction. Each set of this type will take betwee.o. 20 and 30 seconds to perform. A.nd since they are done in an isometric f ashio.o., they elicit a stro.o.ger muscular co.o.tractio.o. than if the exercise were performed in any of the aforeme.o.tioned have lifted 1~.000 pou thewee.t.

Juiiiata jumped out to an early ,lead when Mite Cottle caught a six-yard touchdow.o. pass from Mite Culver. The conversion tick was aood, and the Indians had a 7-0 lead. Things didn't get any better for Wilt.es as Culver threw his second touchdown pass to Cottle from six yards out. The conversion tick vas good, and Juniata had a 14'-0 first-quarter lead. Following a poor Wilkes punt. Juniata running back G.reg Tow.o.se.o.d ran the ball in from 33 yards out for the touchdown. The tick was good, and Juniata built its lead to 21-0. Late in the Ant half.

ATTENTION Ill Editorial Students' decision We ran an ad in The Beacon last week entitled "Writers' Block Cured." Altnoug.b tt advertises a catalo2ue of paper topics. it is actually an advertisement for pre-written research papers. These ads are .not uncommon. particularly in college and university .newspapers. Following publication last week. The Beacon's advisor and edito.r-i.n-chief received several comments about the ad. Primarily, The Beacon was criticized fo.r supposed lack of judgment i.n running an "unethical" ad. The questions .raised by the publication of this particular ad resemble questions The Beacon staff has asked before. Fo.r example. The Beacon has .received an ad from a couple interested in adopting a baby . We are waiting to make the decision to .run the ad until its legality is confirmed. Thus. it is evident that an ad policy must be made to deal with these various circumstances. In order to make the most effective. ethical policy decision. we must first examine the various points of view. From one perspective. it would seem inappropriate to run the ad because it is unethical for a student to submit a paper that he did not write . Furthermore. by advertising the service. The Beacon would seemingly be aiding such an unethical practice. · But if you consider a newspaper to be a public forum. then the purpose of The Beacon is to bring information and analysis to Wilkes students so that they can make intelligent. ethical decisions. Thus. The Beacon is fulfilling its ethical .responsibility to the campus by .running the ad. Of course. this puts the emphasis on the individual's .responsibility to deem the ad and practice unethical. But is this not the purpose of a Wiltes· education? If you refer to the essay "An Educated Man o.r Woman" in the Wiltes College Bulletin, Wilkes students should have "ethical standards by which to live." Therefore. by making advertising decisions on moral grounds. not simply legal grounds. morality becomes the responsibility of Tbe Beacon staff and not the individual. And though The Beacon is not averse to making decisions on an ethical level. the decision not to buy a plagiarized research paper should be the student's. Along the same lines. what if The Beacon refused to print Planned Parenthood ads because the staff thought the organization to be immoral? Granted. some people probably feel that Planned Parenthood is immoral. but many do not. Any newspaper policy which is based solely upon morality as opposed to legality will make this so.rt of discrimination possible. In conclusion. we feel it is The Beacon's .responsibility to bring opposing points of view to Wilkes students so that they can make intelligent. ethical decisions. How do you feel. Wil.tes College?

A1thouah the budaet did pass, SG was not in fuU a,lreement on the issues. which was evident in the vote (12 favored, 7 opposed, 1 abstained) . According to Jacqui Kramer, Junior Class respresentative. "Students did not get u opportunity to see the proposed budget because it was not printed in The Beacon last wee.t." ; therefore, a vote should not have been ta.t.en. Ronda Fahmy. SG parliamentarian . disagreed with Kramer. saying, "I thi.D..t. it's urgent that we vote on the budget tonight." The discussion then turned to specific budget cuts. Keith Dorton. IRHC president. wanted to .t.now the reasons behind the $1.:>00 cut in the IRHC budget. Fahmy said. "This is not a playoff between orguizations. We're tightening the purse strings." Eric Chase, SG president. said. "We felt it was more important to cover our own asses before we covered the other organizations." Dean Hoover. SG advisor, said. "You have to loo.t. at the fact that we have fewer students. so we have less money. Last year we had . $92.<f?:>. and this year we only have $87.l00.

Jaz,fi1.z." g · ip&nts All of this babbling has finaUy brought me to this wee.k's topic--heada.ches. Millions of Americus suffer from headaches and spend hundreds of mi11ions of dollars each year on pain .relievers. There are three kinds of headaches: tension headaches. from muscular contraction; vascular headaches. related to the blood vessels; an.d organ.ic headaches. which have to do with constitutional well-being or over-partying. Tight muscles in the head an.d neck regions remain the biggest cause of headaches. College is a very intense atmosphere . Studying in excess of eight hours daily is not uncommon . This would be a prime example of a cause for a tension headache. Another cause of headaches could be day-to-day depression . This also puts stress on the head and neck muscles. The best way to · treat this type of headache is to treat the depression . Constriction or dilation of blood vessels in the brain can also cause headaches. Some chemicals such as tyramine can cause the di&lation of blood vessels. You are probably saying. "So what?" Well. the reason that this is important is because tyramine is found in many of our favorite foods. Among these are chocolate and .red wine . Another type of headache which results from dilation of the blood vessels is the dreaded migraine. Migraine headaches last up to 18 hours and are often accompan.ied by blurred vision. nausea and numbness of the limbs. Headaches also .result f .rom exertion--coughing or lifting heavy weights a.re good examples. This type of headache will go away with some rest. If you suffer from this type of headache. a longer. less intense training program will u~doubtedly help . A headache c&A also be a symptom for a more serious disorder. The one most frequently related to headaches is high blood pressure. So, if you are over 40 an.d have frequent headaches. I suggest that a check-up is necessary. For the basic nonchronic headache, over-thecounter pain relievers are fine. Let it be known. though. that these drugs can aggravate a headache caused by a strenuous workout. If pain killers f&il and the headache continues. see a doctor It could b you that you have low blood sugar or worse. If you do not believe in over-the-counter drugs. there are other alternatives. Hot baths. hot or cold packs on the neck or head &Ad a .massage a.re known. to be quite helpful. Migraine sufferers may .relieve blood pressure in the head by putting their han.ds in. hot water. There are also more expensive ways for .relieving headaches. These include .relai&tio.n techniques or biofeedback lessons. Nonaddictive drugs an.d anti-depressan.ts may also be prescribed if these methods fail. Even. with all this. the best way to relieve the stress &Ad strain of the day which could lead to a headache is .regular e1:ercise &Ad a well-balanced diet. Enjoy your workouts!

The·CoJonels fought long and hard but came out with a loss. Coach Eileen Sharp found the game a learning experience for her defense. as she experimented with playing so.me team members in new positions. The , change didn't .help much in the game against Scranton. but in the Marywood game on Thursday, it showed. Wilkes played an ei:ceUe.nt game. showing still. quickness and a true knowledge of the game of field hockey. Both goals were scored by co-captain Yvonne Pie.rman in the second half of the game. She picked off a beautiful pass from Sharon Domzalski midway into the half. Domzalski carried the ball and centered the shot at goal. There Pierman .tnoc.ted it in to ma.te the score 1-0. The second goal. also by Pierman. came after a scramble in front of a goal. It touched many sticks in an attempt to score. Joyce Dait who sent the original shot.

Acco.rdio.g to Shipula. Gabby speaks up! there were over 20 dispalys �PAGE TWO Alcohol does not equal social Editorial The Beacon: Use us! Wilkes College has a newly adopted mission. which will serve the College by defining Wilkes to itself and its public. Ao.d oo.e of the mission's crucial points is a regular communication among the various constituents of the College. Just so, The Beacon. also has a mission.: to stimulate the kind of cross-campus discussion that will get thin.gs done . · In fact, The Beacon is the only avenue Wilkes College has to communicate as a community. But I believe that ~any of. our readers view The Beacon as simply an information source. Granted, The Beacon. should be a reliable source of campus information, and The Beacon staffwork.svery hard to make itso. F~.rthe.rmore. it is The Beacon's job to inspire the constitu.e nts of Wilkes to discuss the issues at hand by p.resenttng relevant facts and analysis. But .we cannot do italoo.e. .It is.the campus .constil';Jent' s responsibility to present their views a.nd voice their opinions. And it's also the campus's re~p~nsibility to let us know if we'.re not living up to our mission. Thus far, the campus has been remiss in its responsibility. In fact. President B.reiseth has frequently commented oo. the lack of communication. on this campus. This tact of communication is apparent if we loot at a c~rren~ matte.r of some importance: the Wilkes University discussion. The Beacon has published two articles on the issue. And many students and professors I have spoken to have very definite opinions on the subject. Yet The Beacon has .not received even one lette.r or comment. It is this kind of apathy that allows the students to grumble in the Student Cente.r and in the dorms, the faculty to complain. at faculty and department meeti.o.gs, the administration to commiserate in Wec.tesse.r H&ll, and so on. There is no unified action because each group does not ta.te advantage of The Beacon. which is read by virtually everyone on this campus. Let's get Wilt.es College off its collective butt and make The Beacon an avenue of discussion and debate that will get things done. · upon alcohol consumption placing this story Oft theo., clearly, we have lost f .ront page of the paper.

Since the late 1940s. Homecoming has been a tradition . As George Ralston. dean of swde.n.t affairs. said. "Homecoming is a very significant event of history and life of an instiWtion." He added. "It adds color and meaning to an i.n.stiWtio.n.. Loyalty [spirit and participation by alumni and swdents] reflects the standards of that institution.~· Homecoming is a chance for members of the college community to pull together. to become closer and to show their spirit and love. Both Ralston and Dean Art Hoover agree that Homecoming hasn't changed much throughout the years. "The major difference was one of spirit and full participation," said Ralston. Ralston feels that swdents were more spirited in the past because the relationships among students were closer. He continued. "Everyone knew everyone. There were warm relationships. great friendships. and great camaraderie ." He also feels that this was due to Wilk.es' bei.n.g a relatively new instiwtion. "In the earlier years. new school songs and new spirit songs were coming into existence and traditions were being established. Everything was new. and enthusiasm was high . "It was easier to raise the spirits of the swdents back the.a.," Ralston explained. Hoover feels that 1 difference between coming theA ud ao, do with the sp' competition. especial ween dorms and o zations. Competition · early years of Will very high.

It has only recently that the ming court has been of both men and la the past. alumni had dinner dances. but the students did not. Eventually, the students started their own dinner -dances. These we.re formal dances to which the women wore gowns and the men wo.re tuxedos. These dances were held in the college gym_ "Being asked to be chairman of the deco.rating committee fo.r the gym was a big hono.r.'' said Hoover. Although the alumni have always played a major role in Homecomisig.
