    SEPTEMBER 28,1984 THE MERCIAD PMercyhurst Collegecatalog undergoes revisions Council aids commuteThe college catalog is a vitalsource of reference in collegeacademic life. It containsdepartmental l is t ings, re-quirements, and de scriptions,as well as academic policiesand procedures of the institu-

    tion itself. ICollege catalogs are usedby the admissions office forrecruiting purposes. Potentialstudents need to know pro-gram requirements beforeenrolling in it.Current students need acatalog for course specifica-t ions, especially useful forscheduling purposes. Theyalso need to check thecatalog to make sure theym e e t a l l t h e i r d e g r e erequirements.Because of the timelinessof a college catalog, it must beupdated every year. Accor-ding to Academic Dean, Dr.David Palmer, there were fewchanges in this year's catalog."The biggest change was inthe physical education depart-ment, which previously was aminor program and awarded a

    coaching certificate. It was ex-panded to become thes p o r t s m e d i c i n e - p h y s i c a leducation department."There were a few additionsin the academic regulations*1sections. Added was the Stu-dent;Senate resolution. Now,students may challenge acourse only once. Also addedwere notes about copyrightviolations and security viola-tions and misuse of computerresources. These came aboutas a result of the need torestate and emphasize thecollege's position,, on the il-legal acts of plagiarism andcomputer tampering.The new catalog contains areference'and explanation ofthe college Judicial Board.The biggest, and mostnoticable changes in |the1984-85 Mercyhurst Collegecatalog are in the physicaldesign of the catalog itself.Dean*Palmer finds the new,8.5 x 11 inch size, "attractive ".The larger size reduces thenumber of pages needed.

    Where's the dignity JHomecoming weekend cou ld have been moremem orable If more dignity was inflicted upon the

    ceremony.An annual event, such as Homecoming, deserves morestature than it received last Saturday.Chaos and disorganization plagued the football f ieldduring the crown ing of the Homecom ing king and queen.Did time con straints not allow for proper preparation ofthis event. i \Many area high schools present their Homecomingcandida tes in a more dignified and orderly fashion.Promendading onto the footbal l field Is one honor eachof the candidates is granted. However, the lack of dignitymade this ^grandeur event seem so meaninglessThe candidates knew prior to walking onto the footballf ie ld who was selected as this year's king an d queen Thereco gnit ion and anticip ation were no longer visible.Representatives from the college were not present toprovide the king and queen with his or her flowers. Thisinter actio n wou ld have added more pride to the ceremonyIn and of itself. Homecoming Is not an event surrounded around theeight or ten seniors in the court. It could be an event forthe ent ire campus.SAC did spon sor a Homecoming dance In the CampusCenter, but the lack of attendance indicated thatstudents did not want to part icipate in the Homecomingactivities.Revisions need to be made to upgrade the quality ofstudent part iciapt ion dur ing Homecoming weekend. Onesuggest ion may include a formal Homecoming dancewith the Homecoming court present. This wouldvputmore meaning behind the select ion of a Homecomingcourt . I r In addition, it might stir more student interest,as wellas, add some dignity to the entire weekend.

    LetterUsed books should be soldto beat rising!col lege costsWith the first semesterunder way, many of us wouldlike to forget the aggravationof starting the school year.One of the big problemsstudents faceIat this time ofthe year is the purchasing oftext books.

    For the lucky few, this chorecan easily be accomplished byremembering the tricks of thesmarter students of the past.One task Is finding the righttime to get into the bookstore.Eliminating the hassles ofnervous students waiting inthe checkout line is one featto tack le. But even with the insand outs of college life, thereis still one obstacle which no

    student can seem to overcomewith much grace, bookprices...Every year our pocket booksgrow thinner and the prices onthe inside ofT,our text booksgrows larger. When you thinkyou can save a few dollars byselling your book to a willingstudent, it always seems thatthe publishers have changedor revised the edition. So nowyour stuck with an extremelyheavy and unwanted bookwhich only gets heavier eachtime you move out of% yourapartment. Remember, youcan' t throw them away,because we keep remindingourselves of how much wepaid for them. Often, we use

    the old standby...maybeuse this when I get intofield....One thought which mhelp us out now and infuture is the introductionused bookstore. Betterthe sympathy of a teachers who seem to chtheir minds each timeorder books for new cla(Students do not receivecopies).This letter may or macause people to carryissue any further, but Wterm is only a few moaway.

    A touch of IrelandBy Naomi Romanchok*One of the new faces on theMercyhurst campus belongsto Mike Kelly from Dublin,

    Ireland. Kelly is this year'sreceipient of the. John F. Ken-nedy Scholarship donated bythe Sisters of Mercy.The purpose of the Kennedyscholarship, as stated in a let-ter to the Counsel General ofIreland, is in "recognition ofthe strong k Jrish heritagehanded down to us by ourfounders and of their tradi-tional commitment to helpingthe nee dy." The scholarship isgiven to a student from theRepublic of Ireland and coversacademic costs for 4four orfive years at''the college. Thescholarship was named forAmerica's 35th president. Ken-nedy was an American of Irishde s c e n t and i s a v e ryrecognizable person in Irelandand fulfilled the hopes forgreat achievement.Rick Bengel, admissionscounselor for transfer andforeign students, notes that itwas a "happy coincidence"how Mercyhurst and Kelly gotconnected. The Irish soughtan education service to helphim find colleges in the UnitedStates with a hotel-restaurantmanagement.To seek out other potentialKennedy scholars, the S istersof Mercy in Ireland, theAmerican Embassy in Ireland,the Irish Consulate JamesSlavin, who spoke at com-mencemen t' exercises last ^year, and Ireland's Minister ofEducation.On a more personal note,Kelly is.the oldest of fivechildren. He is also a memberof the Laker soccer team. He

    finds that American soccer is"less physical". Kelly admitshe's not terribly good at thesport, but nevertheless, he en-joys It. He is, v however aWashington Redskins fan. Kel-ly loves to sail. He spentsometime working on a Mer-chant Maine ship. ; *This is not the first time he'sever been to America. Kellyspent six months in VirginiaBeach. .vKelly held few expectationsof America^ before he camehere. "American s are confi-dent they kno v/ what theywant to do. " He perceived Erieand Mercyhurst as "niceplace s". He says, "When Icame across Pennsylvania itwas very much like Ireland -the mountains and therivers..." He finds the towns tobe very different. "It's veryunusual in Ireland to find thehouses immediately on theroad. .The houses are tooclustered. There's very; littleprivacy here." He also notesthat all the houses here arewooden. In Ireland, the housesare built of brick. He jokinglydescribes his homeland as"very gree n" Kelly hasn'tf o u n d a d j u s t m e n t s t oAmerican life terribly difficu lt."Everybody in the worldknows about America becauseof TV". That video influencehasn't necessarily helped theimpression of Americans. '"Alot of people don't l ikeAmericans because they thinkAmericans throw their weightaround." JHe points out that mostEuropeans are better informedabout the events of the world ."Americans are very insulated.They aren 't interested in

    ( iAnnie" returnsFlynt or Warbu

    Jf J *r * " fir UK j aws**Mike Kellyanything going on outside oftheir country. The averageEuropean is more interested inobtaining news beyond the.limits of their own country.They can easily pick up broad-casts of the surroundingcountries. Americans have toread more papers, m agazines,and books."While here, Kelly plans to dosome travelling. He hopes tovisit Wales next summer toprobably do some sailing.Like any other college stu-dent, music is Important-, toKelly. Some of his favorite ar-tists include: Genesis, LionelRitchie and Elton John andAllan Parsons.Bengel describes Kelly ash a v i n g a " p e r s p e c t i v eawareness of who he is andwhy he is here. He's also veryaware of our culture ." Thiscomes from his maturity, hisage of 21 , and his experience."Kelly will add an invaluabledimension to the college,especia lly in his classes. Heoffers an opinion from a world-wide viewpoint," Bengeconcludes.

    By Laura RubyMost professors will agreethat teaching at a college oruniversity requires one to giveup a lot. But in the case of Ray-mond Flynt, criminal justiceinstructor at Mercyhurst, hisrole as Daddy Warbucks in themusical "ANNIE" requiredhim to give up more.On New Years Eve, 1983,The Erie Playhouse openedit's new! doors to the publicwith the presentation of themusical "ANNIE."
