I'm having a hard time thisweek.Due to personal experiencethings aren't flowing as well asthey can, but I still have as muchto say. That worries me.

This past week, a few sciencemajors approached me about aproblem they were having withthe present billing system. Itseems that the system allows youto take 8-12 credits for Fall termand Intercession.,,

That' doesn't work out too wellfor science majors. Italso doesn'twork out too well for anyone elsewho has to take a 4-credit course.

You see, a 4-credit coursethrown into a 8-12 billing systemmakes 13 credits. Due to

Administrative edicts, that's ano-no. So, Go directly ahead threespaces to the Business Office andpay- $100.00, Do jnot recieveclearance, do not register forclasses. ; 1 told this group ofconcerned students that I'd usemy column to bring attention tothe problem. I also told hem thatI seriously doubted that this type

of expression of concern wouldbring any real action. You see, inthe past few years the 'Hurstenvironment hasn't been too"receptive" to real action.

At tnis point the conversationthen turned to a discussion ofMercyhurst from a students pointof view. Considering we are theones who have to make it throughthis maze with some degree ofsuccess, it's not surprising. '.

A lot of positive stuff recievedair-time in the next few minutesand what we came up with was anexpression of /concern for thefollowing areas; j3jjjj ^.

1 Discriminatory nature of thepresent billing system (making

4-credit courses a "hiddencharge").2 Shift to part-time faculty and

exiting of good fulltime in-;structors. <

3 Budget cuts that directlyeffect educational quality, kr '• 4 Administrative refusal jj todevelop the Geology Department.\ This is the first time .in my

Letter: ^

No Volleyball CoverageDear Mr. Frisina,

As of the writing of this letter,the Mercyhurst Women's VarsityVolleyball team has played 17

games. Although our record isnothing to rave about, I wouldappreciate some recognition bythe Mercyhurst community.

Our schedule was never printedin the Merciad or on the monthlyactivities i calendar. Maybe ifmore people knewI there was avolleyball team , and knew whenthe games Kwere, ithe homematches would be better at-tended, g

I realize the difficulty incovering the away matches, butwe have had 5 home matches andI can not understand why all 5weren't on the sports page of thispublication^

I feel that Women's VarsityVolleyball deserves as muchcommendation a s any other sporthere at Mercyhurst.

mSincerely,

i, J

Jeamne Baas

experience that a group ofMercyhurst students expressed adesire for real change.

None of the above issues ar e tobe taken lightly.- They are areasof concern felt by the studentbody* Areas that need attentionbrought to before action will betaken. \'t *

The -next few months willpresent an excellent time span inwhich student body grievancesshould be heard. A new "ad-ministration will be taking overin -(the spring and issues thatreceive the most attention willundoubtedly be the first onesacted upon. .jp 5J? So here is your chance to reallymake a lasting ^impression,

students. The time is becomingripe for the real Mercyhurststudent body to "enter and sign inplease." ., £*4 £

If anything mentioned here hitshome, don't keep it to yourself.Remember that any impetus forchange or taction starts in aminority of one. It's only throughsharing that ideas turn to action.

From D.G-

Students Finda Merciad InterestingIt has been interesting to watch

the conflict of ideas presented inthe few issues of the Merciad thatI've read.

First, Mr. Kubiak finally wenton the record in the M erciad withsome ideas that many faculty andstudents share but all too oftenhesitate to express.

In the next issue, Steve Frisinachose to write on the develop-ment of the "get-together party"in the face of a 'no party* imageof Mercyhurst and the desire to'impress" freshmen with par-ties. He doesn't say it outright,but Steve hints at the parties.

that—were* (are?)# regularitythrown" iai schooT expense )""for•prespective freshman. (We triedto get someone to confirm that forprint last year, but MSG officerswouldn't say a word.) j*

All this while Ed Gallagher andMiriam Mashank write of theexcellent classroom experienceand the wonders of the mentoringprogram.

Then, J Walt Green respondsdecrying mediocrity andquestioning the ideas of qualityand quantity at Mercyhurst. He

does a great job of speaking forthe student who doesn't needdevelopmental skills as few asthey may be these days. ' fj

I won't add any fuel to the fireof these arguements. I'm too faraway and, as far as the college isconcerned, not one of those to beconcerned about. As a senior, Iwon't add to the attrition rate andI won't be footing any bills afterJune 1, 1980.

But I will say something tothose still concerned, be theyfaculty , studen ts or £• ad-ministrators. Thanks for caringabout Mercyhurst and its people.

That care may or may not holdthe irestitution together; it may ormay not allow you to make aconscious decision to eave, but ithas kept us alive with some crazyhope*" th at] parties aren'teverythingandmat an institutioncan always be changed, j

Thanks, Watt and Mr. Kubiak,for bringing a little of that spiritinto The Merciad again . It helpsall the rest of us who care. -

A Joy To View"

Miracle Worker A Success&

b y A n B C n | m e n t>

t

The Little Theatre's recentproduction of The MiracleWorker was a joy to view. Underthe direction of Miss ChristiWarnick the Mercy hurstthespians displayed talent andpoise as they portrayed the storyof Helen Keller.

The setting quickly captivatedthe audience as the play began.The lighting and set constructionwere effective except for a fewtimes when shadowing tended toblock the characters' faces. Themusic played in the backgroundadded to the smooth transitionand flow of the production..

Phoebe J Price wa s indeed abelievable mother character asshe so amptly portrayed KateKeller. One could feel the com-passion and care that Pricebrought into th e character of

Mrs. Keller.Although some words an d

phrases were lost in delivery,Tim Weeks did a fine job as thesomewhat brazen Captain Keller.There wa s seldom any questionabout the Captain's ability todominate the Keller household.

James, played by MichaelSmith, seemed to parallel hisfather's character. Both' th eCaptain and James were seen asindependent characters. Eventhough some of Michael'sspeeches were delivered a bit toofast, he displayed the characterof James in a fine manner. .

Kathy Compernolle did asuperb job as Helen's governess,Annie Sullivan. Her expressionsand inflections aided in buildingsuch a strong character. At timesI found myself breathless uponwatching Kathy in her dailystruggles with not only Helen but

her own life.Betsy Herzog's portrayal of a

blind and deaf child was so realthat one could actually believethat Helen wa s handicapped.Betsy's physical stature madeher portrayal of a helpless littlegirl effective.

The struggle scenes betweenAnnie and Helen left m e withsuch a - feeling of compassion.The determination of both Annieand Helen wa s brought outbeautifully by Kathy and Betsy.

When I've felt like an activeparticipant of a play a nd was onlyan observer, I know that theproduction w as effective.Walking away from Tuesdaynight's performance I wasdrained. The entire cast and crewof The Miracle Worker did an•excellent job of creating th at kindof a mood that makes audienceswalk away feeling good.

Explains Procedures

Financial Aid Office Speaks OutHow do we in the Financial Aid

Office determine ho w muchfinancial aid a student is eligible

for? Probably with;much lessflexibility than you might think.The federal government

requires that each student wh owishes to be considered for thecollege work-study,. NationalDirect Student Loan, and ofSuppl ementa l E duca t i o na lOpportunity Grant programsmust each year have a file afederally approved need-analysisdocument.

Here at Mercyhurst we use theCollege Scholarship ServiceFinancial Aid Form or thePHEAA Grant need-analysissystem. The result of this need-analysis (which is performed on

computers in Harrisburg, PA orPrinceton, NJ) is a figure whichshould reflect an accurate

determination of what a familycan realistically contributetoward the student's educationfor that academic year.

This f need- de termi na t i o nconsiders ; things like parentaltaxable and non-taxable income,assets, investments, bank ac-counts and home equity. Alsoconsidered is family size, numberof family members in colleg e andallowances to protect a portion ofa famuy's income and assets.

Once the Financial Aid Officereceives the need determinationfrom CSS or PHEAA we try tomeet this need with a com-bination of grant, work, and loan.For th e 1979-1980 academ ic y ear.

rUW-iili

we tried to distribute th eavailable aid in such a way as toinsure, whenever possible, that.

each? student's financial ai dpackage wa s roughly half grantand half self-help (loan and work-study). %

Hopefully, more equitablefederal funding in future yearswill enable us to increase at leastthe portion packaged as work-study aid; but as funding levelswon't be announced until Spring,we can't promise anything.& Again, we encourage studentswho have an y questions regar-ding their financial aid to stop inand talk with us . Appointmentsaren't necessary but they arehelpful. Remember, the AidOffice is now open until 8 p.m. onTuesday. I ?

At Halloween Donee

M a d Hatter Provides MusicMad Hatter provided the music

for th e Halloween dance onWednesday, October 31 in theStudent Union.

Mad Hatter is a rock groupfrom north-central J Penn-sylvania. The group consists of:Jerry Confer; guitar and vocals,Scott Johnson; guitar and vocals,Alan Lamder; guitar, keyboardand vocals, RodeShaffer; bassand vocals, and Don Strandberg;drums and vocals. • ,v"'

Mad Hatter combined strong,clear vocals with loud, powerful

instrumentsIs. Unfortunately,the group waited until the thirdset to play d ance music;- Anotherdisadvantage was the use of to6high amplitude which whencombined with the poor acousticsproduced a weak sound.

The music performed in -cluded: "What's Your Name" byLynyrd Skynyrd, "The Boys AreBack In Town" by Thin Lizzy,"All Right, Now" by Free and"Hold the*Line"by Toto.J; ~

The group has p lans to performat the Artist an d Entertainer'sClub sometime in the future.

What MarketingManagers Want

In a survey of 87 marketing and sales managers who wereasked to rate the importance of more than 30characteristicsof marketing graduates that were used as hiring standards,the characteristics rated most highly were largely unrelatedto marketing.

The most important characteristics were maturity, per-sonal selling and sales management expertise, appearance,cooperativeness. communications-public speaking,

disposition, punctuality, mannerisms, general marketingability, and English-writing ability. The survey is reportedby Kenneth C. Schneider in the Winter 1978 issue of theJOURNAL OF COLLEGE PLACEMENTJ

Retailing Demand ChangingCareer openings for college graduates interested in the retailing business are

changing. According to Herbert T. Mines^ Chairman of Business Careers, Inc., amanagement recruiting concern in New York City that specializes in retailing jobs,there is agrowing interest among retailers in hiring for the nonmerchandising aspec -ts of retailing — accounting, finance, credit, data processing, advertising and salespromotion. jfia \r;

Demand now is "skewed" to theadministrative side, he said.In addition, he cited warehousing and distribution as a major growing area where

personnel are needed. He listed skills such as engineering, and systems and computerscience that are needed by retailers to make their supply operations more cost-efficient, f $ '2

Another area of opportunity in retailing is that of real estate . Retailers want trainedreal estate people for their shopping-center development plans, while the shoppingcenter developers want people trained in retail operations.

"Fresh B.A. graduates at the trainee level can expect entry s alaries of about $12,000to $15,000". Mr. Mines said. jE ^ I

(Reprinted from Hie New York Times. June 13.1979)$

NEEDED: GOOD CHICKSOpportunities in the restaurant business, particularly for

cooks and chefs, have never been better. Their employmentoutlook is brighter than those of most other occupations, ac-cording to the l aborDepartment. As many a s 80,000 jobs areexpected to open up each year bet ween now and 19R5.

A new government-funded program administered by theAmerican Culinary Federation in l ansing.JMfchigan ispreparing 1.502 persons across the country for jobs as cooksand chefs. Each participant works 8 hours a day for 3 yearsas an apprentice to a certified chef, usually earning $5 to $f»an hour and attending college one night a week for coursesrelated to the restaurant business. A graduate can make$14,000 a year. Several years of outstanding work can bring

t hat take to $35,000or more. • |b Taken from theOctober 1.1979 issue of the CAM Report.
