Privileges Lost

SAC Forfeits \ \Campus Center Use

By Frances MoaveroMERCIAD Human ResourcesThe Student Activities Commit-

tee has been suspended use of theCampus Center until January1984, according to Dave Cherico,director of Campus Centermaintenance.

SAC failed to clean the Cam pusCenter after th e Halloween Danceon Saturday, October 29,

therefore this restriction wasimposed, %

Dr. William P. Garvey, presi-dent of Mercy hurst College, M ar-jorie McDermott, director of theStudent Union, and Cherico,jailconcluded through telephone con-versations that this suspension beenacted.

Cherico called James Sherrod,vice president|of SAC, to havehim assist with the clean-up. Dueto an injury, Sherrod was unableto do the jotoff * -*

Sherrodfc called John I Jones,SAC chairperson, notifying himof the situation. Jones said-hewould be at the Campus Centerwith a clean up crew in a fewminutes. By this time it was 10

a.m. Sunday morning.Cherico waited, but Jones norany other SAC members showed

up .As a result, Sports Information

Director Jim LeCorchick; Assis-tant Soccer Coach Jim Grimes,'and some soccer players took itupon themselves to clean theCampus Center so the basketballteam could utilize the facility forpractice. ™

Damage :; included! cigarette

burns on the Campus Centerfloor, and a wine bottle was alsobroken against the wall.

"In the last six years, a lot ofactivities have been held in theCampus Center, but there havenever been any damages until thisyear," Cherico said. -

Apparently, this was not thefirst time this incident has occur-red, according to Cherico. SACalso neglected to clean the Cam-pus Center after th e first dance inSeptember. -

"Why should the rest of theschool suffer for a committee thatis being so la x," Cherico asked.

Jones commented* "DaveCherico is being paid to take careof the Campus Center. Was 1 sup-

posed to do this myself? SAC isnot getting support from JMSGand students." \*

Mental Health

Don't Take'HurstCounseling Literally

Mercyhurst C ollege has* had a part-time mental healthcounselor on campus since last spring. But unfortunately, manystudents aren't taking advantage of the fact.

Maybe it's because of the negative connotation most peopleassociate with the words mental and health.

In actuality, mental and health, as defined by Webster's NewCollegiate Dictionary means, "relating to the total emotional

and intellectual response of an individual to his environment,"and "the condition of being sound in body, mind or spirit;freedom from physical disease or p ain," .respectively. Bothdenotative descriptions are rather positive, contrary to belief.

Students shouldn't be fearful. Solitary confinement, "funnypills," or a brain * wave test* aren't part o f the i purpose of acounselor at Mercyhurst.

The reason the mental health counselor was hired is to helpstudents to solve problem s, reduce stress and make decisionsmore effectively. Students will not be forced to talk or doanything they don't want to, by any means.

It's no secret that more and m ore students are depressed aboutthe state Of the economy, academic and peer pressures and eventhe job market. Students are also realizing that a college diplomadoesn't guarantee a job after graduation and some students findthese facts difficult to deal with. \

All of these factors augment the levels of student stress at col-

leges and universities throughout the country - even at a smallliberal arts college like Mercyhurst.The^ generation o f today is psychologically-aware and

shouldn't be afraid to seek assistance. After all, students talkabout concerns with other people. Why not seek a professionalopinion? •

As far as qualifications are concerned, Dr. Warren Hohwaldwas selected by Mercyhurst due to his extensive experience as acollege counselor. He worked at Ohio State University for sevenyears as a college counselor, and likewise, at Behrend State Col-lege. Dr. Hohwald has also worked; in private practice for 20years. *

The counseling services are available to the entire M ercyhurstcommunity free of charge. Dr. Hohwald is on campus Wednes-day afternoons from 2 to 5 p.m., and Thursday evenings from 5to 9 p.m., in Old Main, R oom 212.: To make ah appointmentcall 825-0422 or select a time on the b ulletin board posted on hisdoor. Sessions are scheduled for 40 minutes. j

Professional counseling elsewhere could range from $50 andup per session. Maybe it's time to consider help to avoid orreduce stress, anxiety and many other problems and concernsthat exist today in the world - and at Mercyhurst College.

B e g Y o u r P a r d o nLast week's Merciad carried a story about the EganScholars program. It should be noted that the program isthe Academic Dean's responsibility, contrary to the state-ment in The Merciad* Comments and advice frommembers of the community are accepted. Final respon-sibility for the program resides with the Dean .

exists, or a specific portion ofsuch time; corresponding to whathappens or exists in real life; trueto reality.

This is the way WEBSTER'SNEW^ WORLD DICTIONARYdefines the word, life. However, ifyou really think about it, there isno set definition for the word life.Assuming we accept it to be real,life can be everything or Iife canbe nothing at all. To explain myconfusion, you may want to gosee the Columbia- Pictures Pro-duction, THE BIG CHILL.

Directed by Lawrence Kasdanand produced by MichaelShamberg, THE BIG CHILLcontained a lot of familiar faces.It stars Tom Berenger, Glenn

Close, Jeff Goldblum, WilliamHurt, Kevin\ Kline, Mary KayPlace, Meg Tilly and JobethWilliams. < ?

In the first 15 minutes of thefilm, you see a reunion of six oldcollege friends. They are broughttogether by the suicide death ofanother old friend, Alex. Affer at-tending his funeral, they all decideto stay together for the weekendto discuss Alex, discuss, old times,and to get re-acquainted. Younever find out too much aboutAlex and j why he committedsuicide. His death was the way inwhich the film got'into the realtheme. «

,The character development inthe film was done beautifully.Each of the characters goes

through a personal transition. Atfirst, they see the world as a placewhere there is no trust and no

happiness; a place where commi

ment is just a fashion. They speople as being superficial an d bing afraid of relationships. "People," they say, "feel what's besfor them, is best. " They are afraito leave roots - afraid of pemanence. Their transitions comabout when they are forced "tlook beyond their external liveThey find out that a lot of whathey do notf like, ?is inside othemselves.

The film deals a lot with humarelationships.! When people lotouch with others, they lose thidea of what they should be. Theavoid tru e emotions and begin thide behind the structures osociety.

T h e f i l m s h o w s hotogetherness can bind emptines

How, in loneliness, people fineach other. In my opiniohowever, the resolved feeling leat the I end of the film wasnsecure. It didn't leave one withclear cut idea of the theme.

The movie was very analyticand encompassed a lot of symbolism. For these reasons, it molikely would not appeal to a maaudience. The film forces onethink - something most people dnot like to do during a movie.

THE BIG CHILL, in a uniqway, touches very real aspectstoday's society - lonelinesalienation, distrust, separatiodishonesty, and many more.may not be a major impact filma movie block-buster, but it dohave meaning. For" those wh

Cove Goes ItalianThe recent purchase of two piz-za ovens will now enable the Clip-per's Cove Snack Bar in the Stu-dent Union to offer "pizzeriastyle pizza" to the * Mercyhurstcommunity, according to DarylG e o r g e r , H o t e l -Re s t a ur a ntManagement (HRM) instructorand Cove advisor. ^

The pizzas, which will be madefresh by HRM students, will beavailable in the Cove every day,with an on-campus delivery ser-vice bringing th e pizzas to dor-m i t o r i e s , a pa r t m e nt s

r an dtownhouses on Friday and Satur-day nights, Georger said. *

He continued by saying that theCove hopes to "offer students

more for their money," thanother local pizza shops.In order, to acquaint the Mer-

cyhurst community with the newservice, the Clipper's Cove willhave a special, offering a large 14inch cheese and pepperoni pizzawith a quart of soda pop for$4.99. A smaller pizza will also beavailable fo r "about |$3.60,"Georger said. * *

"There won*t be any deliveryCharge at this point," Georgersaid, but he didn't totally rule itout as a possibility in the future.

If the pizza service goes overwell , h e added, they will"hopefully go into subs and sand-wiches" for delivery.

Georger credits this year'smanagers of the Clipper's Cove,'Hurst students Shelly Long,Mike Hetrick, T om Bloss, andPaul Mack, with organizing andestablishing the new service.

"The kids are the ones who arelearning from the experience," hesaid. "They're really doinggreat."

Georger and Bloss, one of theCove managers, are t optimisticabout t h e v e nt ur e . " I t ' ssomething that the campus ha sneeded," Bloss said. "We neededa change." Bloss added that fallterm is generally the biggest profitmonth for the Cove. "Hopeful-ly," he said, "the new service willgenerate business during th e

winter and spring terms.* V"It's going to increase sales and

help th e Clipper's Cove pay foritself," Bloss added.*"I'd like tosee everyone here at least try usout."

Funds AppropriatedByJack Holland

The appropriation of moneywas the big news at the*Mer-cyhurst Student Government

meeting last Sunday, October 30.Over $500 was allotted to threedifferent projects occurring on theMercyhurst campus.

First on the agenda was the con-struction of a wall to enclose thevideo room in the basement ofZurn Hall. The undisclosedamount of money was ap-propriated by MSG with theunanimous support of the MSGrepresentatives.

Secondly, a loan was made to agroup of Fashion Merchandisingstudents in the amount of $350 asventure capital to organize fundraisers to generate money for aproposed trip to New5York Cityover Spring Break.

Two items discussed in lastweek's meeting were tabled until

the next scheduled meeting. MSGdecided to give SAC the respon-sibility of giving WMCY $150 fora November 11 concert in theCampus Center. WMCY is nolonger considered a radio club,therefore it falls under thejurisdiction of SAC. because theactivity is open to all students onthe Mercyhurst campus.

A decision on the academichonesty policy was tabled pendinga revote next week. The postpone-ment resulted from a need toreview the wording of the rule toinclude some revisions requestedby students. :

The rule will state that If caueht

in the act of cheating on a testworth 20 percent or more of theclass total grade, failure1 of thecourse for the term is enforced.

Cheating on any test* or projectworth less than 20 percent of thefinal grade will result in failure ofthat particular test. -•> Also included in the MSG ac-tivities was fthe election of newMSG representatives. The pollswere open on Wednesday andThursday, November 2 and 3.

Lakers Halted In 10-10Homecoming Deadlock

ByGregYokoMERCIAD Sports Reporter

The determined Mercyhurstdefense forced the equally deter-

mined Duquesne football team tosettle for a 10-10 deadlock in theLaker's Homecoming contest lastSaturday night.

Facing a fourth down and tenyards to go situation on the Laker14 yard line, the Dukes decided totry for a field goal t o tie the gamewith only 31 seconds left.

•Mercyhurst Coach TonyDeMeo was admittedly a little sur-prised by the Dukes' decision toattempt the game-tying field goal."I was surprised," revealedDeMeo, "at the time I expected afake. We prepared for a fake, sowe didn't make an all-out blockattempt."

The visiting Pittsburgh clubfollowed through with their inten-tions as Vento connected on his 30

yard boot.The three-pointer climaxed anexciting fourth quarter in which17 of the game's twenty pointswere scored.

After opening the scoring withHm Wilkins' 24 yard field goal

early in the third stanza, Mer-cyhurst had its lead slip awaywhen Werner capped a Duquesne66 yard, ten-play drive with a one

yard touchdown run with 5:18 leftin the game*The Lakers answered almost

immediately when Tim Ruthscored from a yard out just overtwo minutes later. Tim Wilkins'PAT enabled the 'Hurst to regainthe advantage, 10-7. j

This set the stage Ifor Vento'sheroics. «*

Coach DeMeo's squad will at-tempt to forge ahead this week asthey host Dayton University. <

Dayton (5-3), enters the Lakercontest as one of the top DivisionII programs in the country.

-The Ohio opponents have com-piled a mind-boggling 32-6 recordover the last three years. Includedin that mark is the 1980 seasonwhen the Dayton Flyers won the

National Division III Champion-ship and finished 14-0. 2

Also, D ayton has lost only oncein their last 26 games against Divi-sion III opponents; Mercyhurstwill r attempt 'cto give the Flyerstheir second defeat sin 'the

category.According to DeMeo, this will

be the best team the Lakers havefaced.

a • *I f we want to win the nationalchampionship," explained the

mentor, "we have to play teamsof this caliber.' I

The 'Hurst enters the game witha strong defen se led* bylinebackers Don Gibbon and TimLatimer and noseguard MarkPetrasek. <

On offense, Mercyhurst willshow- off the holder o f; theschool's single-season rushingrecord, Tim Ruth. MercyhurstJunior Kevin Armstrong anxious-ly awaits the chance to play a teamsuch as Dayton, j

"It'll be a good test for a teamlike ourselves. We're a tough teamthat needs to be tested by a teamof Dayton's* caliber," he con-tinued, "other teams* have used

techniques and execution againstus. Dayton will combine this-with

strength and endurance."Kickoff for''the high powered

contest is set for 1:90 Saturday, atErie Stadium.

DismalSeasonCloses ;

The Laker soccer team witness-ed a. complete turnaround fromlast year's 8-3-2 record with their

6-1 loss to Gannon on Tuesday.Despite finishing the season at3-8-2, Coach Cees Smit felt someg o o d r e s u l t e d f r o m t h e"frustrating" year. wt

"We had a couple of walk-onswho were really enlightening thisyear, their determination and in-tensity was very good," com-mented Smit, "they played with alot of poise. They'll be really goodto have next year."

The team's relatively poor yearcan be termed as a case of inex-perience. The Lakers started fivefreshmen who had to learn to in-teract with one another on thefield. j ;4 * ft l

Smit also explained the season'sdisappointments.

"We had three or four people

on scholarships who are reallydisappointing us> as far asdiscipline and leadership is con-cerned. So we're really going totake a good look at our wholetotal program."Ânother promising occurrence

during the 1983 fall season wasthe play of freshman goal keeperJoe Donahue. ;

With a strong nucleus returningfor next year, Smit hopes that off-season training and the added ex-perience will return soccer to thepoint where it belongs, a suc-cessful program.
