Gallagher Talks, Discusses Merits Of I Asst. Dean's OfficeEd. Note: Mr. Edward Gallagheris assistant dean of the college.With *the change in ad-ministration forthcoming,serious consideration is beinggiven to the elimination of thisoffice. Ji n this Interview,Gallagher, who is also a facultymember, discusses the rationalefor |theg retention of this ad-ministrative office.

Are you petitioning for yourown sake, to keep the officeyourself? j ^"Obviously I've enjoyed therole of being assistant dean aswell as Associate Professor ofEducation. If I had a choice, Iwould like to continue to fill thatposition, regardless of whether ornot I'm assistant dean-that isnot the important question."In my mind the question is,does Mercyhurst College need anassistant dean at this point in itsdevelopment. I personally feelthat it would be in the best in*terest of the college to continuethe position for at least anotheryear." | ^ He added that student senatorswould be" elected by|the MSGrepresentatives at-the May 12meeting. * *Continuing further, Seltzerstated that next year the studentsenators would be required toattend the government meetings.This year, attendance has notbeen mandatory for the senators."Student senators are the linkbetween student government andstudents," said Seltzer.I ^V i c e - P r e s i d e n t J o A n nAlexander announced the win-ners of the government Battle ofthe Sexes fund dr ive for MuscularDystrophy.

In Search Of A DeanWith D r. Millar announcing hisresignation as dean of Mer-cyhursl, the college has initiatedthe process to select hisreplacement. By advertising theopening in the CHRONICLE OFHIGHER EDUCATION, / theschool is inviting response on anational level. jHowever, the opinion here isthat it would be surprising to seethe new dean come fromanywhere other than from withinthe Erie city limits. President-elect Dr. Garvey has indicatedthat candidates from Gannon,Villa Maria, and Mercyhursthave already been mentioned aspossible replacements. Unlesssome wunderkind flies in flashingawesome credentials, it appearsunlikely that these candidateswill be denied.The local frame of referencebeing exhibited in this instancehas certain merits to it. Dr.Garvey perceives the office of thedean as being chiefly responsible

for interpretation and im-plementation of academic policy.With this in mind, a person who isacquainted with Mercyhurst as aparticipant or local peer wouldappear to be the most expedientchoice. I 4 i^BI t ? should be noted, however,that this is just one opinion andthat familiarity does notnecessarily go hand in hand withefficiency.Hence, once again it is thestudents' responsibility to gathertogether and voice their opinionas to who they feel should occupythe office of the dean. It appear sas though such an event will becomplicated by the fact that theact ual selection will happen afterstudents have left for summerbreak. The student represen-tative should therefore make aneffort to bring as many studentstogether as possible this summerso that an accurate studentopinion is achieved.

A Day Far CommunityIn a little less than two weeks,students will be taking a day offfrom class to let off some steamas the MSG presents them withthe second annual Activity Day.The day-long festival enjoyed asuccessful inaugural last year asstudents came together to showoff their legs, blow bubbles, anddunk administrators. It was fun.However, there was a messageconveyed by the day thatsuperseded any pleasure that"Was derived from it . Theimessage that came through loudand crystal clear that, yes, therewas something that would bringthe college community out enmasse. With exhibits rangingfrom a tennis match featuringDr. Shane to a Polish food standauthentically run by Bertha,head of housekeeping, there wasno doubt that Mercyhurst was acommunity. | & fNow from an organizationa1standpoint, the firs t Activity DayL was not a piece of unblemishedart. With activities overlappingand the manpower being stret-ched to an almost transparentthinness, the day was not as ef-ficiently run as fit could havebeen. Like the green frisbies thatwere guided by a breeze, Activity

Day 79 was an event influencedby those who participated. Itsshape reflected the people, anddespite its imperfections, it wasbeautiful. - L I; WThis year the student govern-ment is doing their best to ironout last year's rough spots.Without any explicit motives ofone-upsmanship, the MSG istrying to give us the best timepossible. Considering the timeand effort that people like JoAnnAlexander and John Chrzanowskihave put into it already, and weshould all be grateful. Numerousbooths, activities, and a hot airballoon will be;, a partjof these

festivities. Students will even beable to buy t-shirts with ActivityDay emblazoned on it. &Last year Activity Day staffwere given t-shirts that ActivityDay the art department designedin honor of the occasion. Withsomething having happened totheir original* design, the artmajors w ere forced to silkscreenone that did not reproduce quiteas well. The shirts were worn inspite. of their seemingly im-perfect nature. As the day drewto a close, students asked wherethey could get one.This year the MSG, wantingeverything to be of the bestquality, decided to buy theirdesigned t-shirts from theChampion athletic wear com-pany. These shirts cost the MSG afourth of the cost of Activity Day.They are going to sell them tostudents at a loss so thateveryone I can afford one. Abeautiful company-designed t-shirt that everyone can afford-sounds great, doesn't it?With the decision to go outsideof the art department for asimple commodity like t-shirts,the MSG has begun to erode thereal purpose of Activity Day- tobring the community together. Intheir search for quality, thehuman element has been for-saken only to be replaced by theprecision t-shirt. The company t-shirt is a sterile substitute. IAt this j point it is stillspeculative as to whether the artdepartment will silkscreen theirown t-shirt. In order for them todo it, they will need about $300.That is $500 less than was spentfor the student governmentshirts. In additon, one art studentsaid that she was pretty sure thatthe participants w ould be willingto donate a portion of their tak e tocharity. A small communitygiving to a larger community-

To the Editor, |While I will acknowledge that itwas a relatively small eventwhen compared to the crowd oncampus to hear Senator Ken-nedy, I was neverthelessdisappointed with the lack of anymention of Earth Day '80 atMercyhurst in ; the last issue(April 25th) of the Merciad. &It may be argued that theMercyhurst Celebration of EarthDay on April 19th would be "oldnews" for the following week'sissue, but then again, Kennedywas here only one day later.It may also be argued thatKennedy's appearance is ofnational importance- and howoften does national news reachErie, PA? I would remind youthat Earth Day '80 wa s

celebrated across the countryand that the events at Mer-cyhurst contributed to the wholenational celebration.Finally, there is the matter ofimpact. The presidential electionis five months away and studentsneed to be made aware of theissues and the candidates. But itseemed that?no one other thanstaunch Kennedy supporters wasimpressed by the 40 minutesworth of Sunday's activities. Sowhat kind of impact did it allhave? S3 [ * 2Over 45 people helped clean uparound campus on Earth Day andover 40 attended the squaredance. And these numbersrepresent students faculty, ad-ministration members of thecrew team and tennis team.

Campus Ministry staff, etc.The Merciad is a collegepublication and should bereporting the events that directlyeffect the students, faculty andadministration of Mercyhurst.(Why was the dean's resignationmentioned a week late on pagethree?) ZWhile it was a small event, Ibelieve that Earth Day '80 atMercyhurst was significant andthat it made an impact on thecommunity. I sincerely hope thatEarl h Day '81 is recognized andgiven its just due. At least therewon't be a national election toIcontend with. -,Sincerely,Sue Fuss Earth Day '80Organizer j ! ;

pretty noble.Hence, the concern here is thatthe real purpose of Activity Dayis being overlooked. Throughoutthe year the MSG has asked thestudent body for their input andcontributions in an effort to builda stronger and more unitedcollege community. This over-sight, no matter how trivialcontradicts such aspirations. Thehope here is that the SecondActivity Day brings the collegecommunity closer.Community does not hinge on at-shirt. Rather, its bonds are itspeople- imperfect as they are.

Students Dislike Speeches,Would Prefer DebatesWhile over 500 students casttheir ballots in this year's studentgovernment -election, a largenumber have indicated that theydid so in spite of current MSGcampaign procedures. |.p A recent poll conducted by TheMerciad questioned 100 studentsabout their reaction to the MSGcafeteria speeches at which eachcandidate*expresses his-herviews. ?\Only 15 per cent of the studentspolled favored the cafeteriaforum as opposed to 48 per cent

who opposed it. The majority ofthe opposition based their opinionon the "long" and "repetitious"nature of the speeches.An is even wider disparity ap-peared in the responses to thequestion, "Did you stay for all ofthe speeches?" Only 20 percent ofthose polled stayed for theduration of the forum. '*'.The solution to the speechdilemma, as a majority of! students concurred, came in theform of d ebates. Sixty-five out ofthe 100 students polled supportedthe idea. _ Letter

For the first time in history,students from families earningmore than $15,000 accounted for amajority of BEOG applicationsthis year.I j \2 jjLawrence Gladieux, itheCollege Board's researchdirector, says there's "no doubt"that tnongovernment's moreelaborate aid applicationprocedures, established in 1978 tohelp prevent fraud, have reducedthe number of low-incomestudents who get aid.Under the new procedures,apparent ly-contraditory answerson the long income-verificationforms are grounds for rejectingaid applications. *[ J"The College Board also foundthat 75 percent ''tax" on familycontribution to college expenseshas eliminated a possible 25,000students from eligibility. 1
