J Hurst Campus Centernsion Underway

By Frances Moave ro|MERCIAD Human ResourcesGround was broken Monday

for the beginning of a three monthproject to expand the CampusCenter.

The project, which is a part ofthe five year plan, will cost thecollege $250,000, according toWilliam P. Garvey, President of

Mercyhurst College. The moneywill stem . from the studentbuilding fund which each •studentpays annually.

Dr. Garvey said the CampusCenter expansion will includeNautilus equipment, crew tanks, alarger training room,^classroomsand offices, .and a larger men'slocker room. r t

The addition of, these % newfacilities will "enrich the students'health," Garvey said. ®

This project is not to solelybenefit the Mercyhurst athlete.

Rather, "it is to improve theholistic health of the institution,"he added.

Tony DeMeo, athletic directorof the Campus Center said, "theaddition will have a posi t ive affecton the college because it will helpthose students who are non-varsity participants continue to

stay in shape or get more seriousabout physical fitness."The new facilities will be like a

s p a , G a r v'e y c o m m e n t e d .However, the only difference willbe students won't have to pay toutilize the equipment.

The weight room, located bet-ween the men's and women'slocker room, will become anathletic training room. This roomwill benefit athletes who need theaid of the whirlpool or athletictrainer. The present training roomwill be used for an office.

MERCIAD Staff ReporterThe second annual Senior Week

will take place Monday, May 23through Thursday, May 26.£ "It's just.a time before gradua-tion when you can get togetherwith all of your friends," saidMaree-Lynn Cicon, a member ofthe planning committee.

A weight room, containingpieces of Nautilus equipment willbe located in the Campus Centeraddition,. According to Garvey,ten more pieces of equipmentcould be added, "depending onthe needs of the students." M

GoodLuck

Seniors! President Garvey and Jane Theuerkauf, president of the Board ofis, officially break the ground.

PresidentlGarvey>

Receives^ Positive EvaluationAccording to a faculty

survey, it is the prevailing opi-nion at Mercyhurst to retainWilliam P. Garvey as the cur-rent president.

These evaluation resultshave been compiled from thefaculty, one of four groups be-ing surveyed, according to Dr.Barry Grossman, Chairpersonof the Facul ty Pol ic ie sCommittee.

"There were 48 responsesout of 71 full-time facultym e m b e r s , ' * e x p l a i n e dGrossman, who was in chargeof surveying the faculty. "Ofthat response there was over-whelming sentiment to retainthe President," he added.

The faculty survey consistedof three questions: "What arethe president 's strengths?What are the President 'sweaknesses? Do you favor hisretention as President?"

, Results from the J surveyswere compiled and only twocopies of the report werecreated — one for the Board ofTrustees* and one for th ePresident.

"All the surveys were

destroyed,'' said Grossman.

"It 's been the agreement of theFaculty Policies Committee,the President and the Board,that it would not serve anyconstructive purpose to discussp u b l i c l y t h e p e r c e i v e dstrengths and weaknesses ofthe President."

Nonetheless, Grossman didreveal the general thrust of thefaculty responses.

With a majority of facultyresponse in favor of retention,Grossman said, "They inden-tified certain areas they wouldlike to see changed.

"None of the weaknessesidentified were of wrongdo-

ing, Grossman said. "Theywere more stylistic.

"There was no problemwhatsoever with his loyalty tothe , institution," Grossmanemphasized..

Results of the survey weretaken by the committee to Dr.

Garvey and explained. "1thought the President was verygracious," Grossman said.

Grossman said he believesthe fact that this survey waseven taken is a step in the rightdirection for the college. "At alot of college campuses, itwo.u 1 dn ' t h a v e b e e npermitted."

Grossman said that hebelieves that the President willtake the final report veryseriously, and will try to actupon the suggestions it con-tains. "We wanted to make avery good president even bet-ter," Grossman concluded.

Rape Crisis CentersThe T ime To Act Is Now

Rape is a topic that most people do n't like to discuss. But,the time has come to recognize that a problem exists todaywith Rape Crisis Centers.

Recently, the federal government has reduced Title XXfunds to the state, which in turn cuts funding for the RapeCrisis Centers in Pennsylvania. ' I

The result of these cutbacks'will leave the PennsylvaniaRape Crisis services with an $800,000 deficit. The bottom linecut for the Rape Crisis Center in Erie is $35,000.

The Penn sylvania Coalition Against Rape (PCAR) is tryingto get the money restored state-wide. You can help too, bywriting letters to the house and senate legislators, that thereneeds to be a state allocation made to maintain the services.

Ironically, the state has increased the number of centers by35 in the past 18 months, which is an 85 percent increase. Yet,the state hasn't provided the funding needed to operate thefacilities. *

^ The director and founder of the Rape Crisis Center in Erieis Joan M artin. She opened t he center ten years ago becausethe need for a center such as this arose in her family. Martindidn't have anyone to turn to. So, she developed the agencywhich also relies on volunteers.

Since the Rape Crisis Center's inception, people know they

can go there for help free of charge. The residents of ErieCounty h ave availed them selves of the services.In April of 1983, a total of 39 new cases were brought to the

center in just 30 days. This is proof that the services which ex-ist must be maintained for rape victims in theCommonwealth. , 1

Director of Housing and Safety, Phyllis Aiello, is also th esecretary-treasurer of the Erie County Rape Crisis Center.She explained that people neecPto realize that* "rape is acrime of violence, not sex." According to Aiello, the servicesprovided by the centers in Pennsylvania aren't just for vic-tims. People who are close to the victim such as a boyfriend,parents or family members can be traumatized as well. Thecenter provides counseling for these people, too.'

The Rape ^Crisis Center has* been helpful to MercyhurstCollege through the years.'Martin has been at the collegetwice^ this-year to speak to students about rape. She alsoworks with the Resident Assistants at Mercyhurst to provide

information and training, free of charge. Obviously, the ex-istence of such centers is vitally important. H

The Social Work Club members at Mercyhurst College arecurrently passing around petitions for people to sign torestore Rape Crisis funding. It is great to see people worktoward a worthy cause.

The time to act* is NOW. It Is your responsibility to helpmaintain these services since such programs cannot survivewithout these monies. Please look at the petition and contactyour legislators to make them aware of the problem, and tolend their support t o its cause.

Did you ever get a paper backfrom one of your professors whohadn't written: "You should pro-ofread your final draft.*'? I neverdid. If you're like me, you pro-bably rip the last page out of thetypewritA* three, hours before it'sdue. After that last gallant effort,you tend to drop dead in your bedfor those remaining three hours.Believe me, if most of the profsthat I had, just experienced what Idid, they wouldn't even want tolook at the paper.* I have beenknown to forget w hole lines as thenight wears into the wee morninghours.

The most commonly seenmachine in school is the manualtypewriter. Not any old kind, butmost probably the familyheirloom. You know, the oneyour Aunt Martha used when shewent to college. It looks like aWorld War II relic that somebodydug up somewhere in yourbackyard.- Typewriters are very much likepeople. Each o ne has its own kindof personality.

My typewriter is simply a joy towork with. The hand lever on theleft happens to be broken half ofthe time and won't push the car-

St. Mark's dining facility, to be run next year by 'Hurst HRM students

By Karen MerkleMERCIAD News Editor

Renovations are expected tobegin in July at the newly-acquired St. Mark's Music andHotel/Restaurant Managementfacility. T he building will be readyfor classes by September, accor-ding to John Nesbit, assistant tothe President for InstitutionalAdvancement.

But because of the excellentcondition of the structure, whichwas leased earlier this spring i n anattempt to solve the college'sspace problems, any renovationsare expected to be minor ones,Nesbit said.

Since the lease doesn't officiallytake effect until July 1, and since

the students and seminarians arefinishing up their current school

year, work is being delayed untilsummer. I

According to Nesbit, that workis not extensive, entailing onlysome painting and minor parti-tioning for offices/

With the acquisition of the50,000 square feet of space at St.Mark's, that leaves a significantamount of vacated classroomsand offices available here oncampus.

"Requests have been extensivefor the vacated space," Nesbitsaid, but so far there are "nocommitments" from the ad-minis trat ion- concerning thatspace and its use by any depart-ments or organizations. -?

Nesbit also said that as the St.Mark 's move will involve so many

Besides carrying out the termsof the lease, the college must alsobe concerned with maintaining agood relationship with theCatholic Diocese of Erie, theholders of the lease; making surethe good reputation of St. Mark'sSeminary stays intact; andorganizing* programs that willoriginate at the facility, such asthe retraining prog ram, for theunemployed.

"Those are big tasks," Nesbitsaid. "We need someone to be ontop of St. Mark's and all thethings that it entails."

International BusinessProgram OpensilnFall

By Amy WoodworthMERCIAD Staff Reporter

Opportunities to attend to theneeds of people here and abroada n d s t i m u l a t i n g c a r e e rpossibilities are a few of thebenefits of the InternationalBusiness Program t o open this fallat Mercyhurst College.

This program is a logical andtimely extension of the Depart-ment's present curricula. It isdesigned to help prepare the Mer-cyhurst graduate to assume posi-tions of leadership and respon-sibility in business and in industryboth on a national and interna-tional level.

"We have sought cooperationwith the 'Hurst's History andPolitical Science, and English-Modern Language depa rtments,"explained Dr. Jean Lavin, direc-tor of the Business Department atMercyhurst College. J V '

"For today's business studentnot to have an understanding of

* THE MERCIAD

multinational business is to havean incomplete business educa-tion," she expressed. "It exposesthe students to how interculturalrelationships function."

To enable the students enrolledin International Business todevelop an ability* to deal with

cross cultural events, participa-tion in a nine-credit internship willbe required.

"Erie has many businesseswhich deal w ith overseas corpora-tions," said Lavin. "AmericanSterilizer and Zurn Industrieshave- already indicated th at .theyendorse an International BusinessProgram for Business students."

The primary locale for theoverseas internship will be Japan,with West Germany as a secondoption.

The new program is expected tocapture the interest of at least tenmajors in 1983-84, then increaseannually.

This year Mercyhurst Softballaccomplished a number of goals.They participated in the OrlandoRebels Spring Softball ^trainingcamp where the Blue and Greentied the third, ranked scho ol inDivision II NCAA, Sacred Heart.

"The Lady Lakers also defeateda strong Edinboro squad in twogames, with senior pitcher LauraAmes throwing a perfect game.

Finally the Blue and G reen onceagain proved strong in theWomen's ^Keystone Conferenceby posting a 5-1 Conferencerecord. The only regular seasonloss the Lakers suffered wasagainst Thiel College in a 5-2 extrainning contest.

j Season Ends:piocefirst On Hot StreakMembers of the Mercyhurst

karate club recently participatedin a karate tournament and rank-ing examination. The competitionwas held in Ashtabula, Ohio, atKent State University BranchCampus. It was sponsored by theLake Erie Karate Association.Tim Tomczak captured first placein the Kata (forms) competition,while teammate Shawn Lichaczwon the Kumite (fighting) com-petition. Next year the club willenter a women's and men's teamin the Great Lakes RegionalTournament.;

The ranking examination was

conducted by Mr. Greer Golden,a fifth degree black belt of the In-ternational Shoto Kan KarateFederation. He is also the chief in-structor for the Great LakesRegion. The following clubmembers were promoted in rank:Jo Wild (club president); JeanNy strom (club vice-president);T i m T o m c z a k ( c l u bsecretary/ treasurer) ; KeithWalken and Ashley Billingsley;

After the examination, whichconsisted of kihon (basic techni-ques), KATA (forms), andKumite (fighting), Mr. Goldencommented that he was pleasedwith the students' progress. Hestated that their performance in-dicated a great deal of hard workand dedication. He then noted

areas the students needed to im-prove and suggested certain train-ing methods to utilize. Finally, hepointed out that testing for rankwas only an extension of regularkarate training, which has anultimate,goal not of victory ordefeat, but of perfecting thecharacter of it's participants.

The - club has* invited Mr.Golden to present a karate clinicat Mercyhurst during the 1983-84academic year. The club will alsoconduct;a course for beginningstudents during the 1983 fallsemester. For further informationplease contact Miss Price at theCampus Center.

Just as the Mercyhurst baseballseason began to come togetherand play well, the season hascome to an end.

Over the past week, the Lakerscame out victorious in four oftheir eight outings, including «adoub le -head er sw eep loverAllegheny College which cappedoff the 1983 campaign.

The 'Hurst split a twin ballagainst Youngstown State lastThursday, winning the opener,6-4 while dropping the second,

7-0. Rick Skonieczka was creditedwith the decision in the first game.

"Mercyhurst entertained ThielColleger during Saturday's ac-tivities, and again, a split resulted.

Senior pitcher John Costellowent to the mound for the openerand the Blue and Green cameaway with a 3-2 victory.

After a costly defensive lapse inthe nightcap, the 'Hurst couldn'tovercome a Thiel lead, and a 7-6loss was the result.

A two-game sweep on Tuesdayclosed out another baseball seasonat the 'Hurst, and the two depar-ting seniors, Lou Alverio andJohn Costello, sparked triumphs.

In the opener, behind thesuperb pitching performanceturned in by Skonieczka, Costello

went three for three at the plate togive the Lakers a 4-3 win.

However, the heroes were dif-

ferent in thermal game. HurlerJim Hovis was victorious in thesecond game, thanks primarily tothe offense supplied by ScottLucas and Alverio.a Lucas planted a pitch over the

360 foot mark in the second inn-ing to account for a pair of theseven runs which the Lakers sentacross the plate in the frame,while Alverio ended his collegiatecareer with four hits in his finalfour at bat. Added] together, a10-5 win was produced. j

Th e' baseball team concludedwith an overall 10-17 mark for the

year, however, it should be notedthat under new%head coach FredConger, the team compiled a 7-6slate.
