Carolyn EndsYear Tenure

B y G a ry D u d e n h o e f e rThe end of the current school

year also marks the end of thefruitful tenure of Sr. CarolynHerrmann as President ofMercyhurst College. Sr. Carolynhas emerged as the individual towhom I most of the ^credit forrestructuring n MercyfyurstCollege must go. Under herguidance the College has changedin both sizeand spirit. f

Perhaps the words? of Sr.Carolyn best | summarize hercareer at Mercyhurst. Whenasked which changeslduring heradministration j were the; mostsignificant, she responded with atwo-fold answer. "I believe thatthe greatest notable change wasthe liberalization of thecurriculum. A few years ago theMiddle States Evaluation snowedus clearly where we were. Thisevaluation provided us with amandate for change. The resultof this challange was the presentterm,system which provides thestudent with a unique opportunityfor personal development. By notimposing a strict pse t ofrequirements, I think we have asystem which challenges thestudent to develop for himself orherself a personally J satisfyingeducational experience." J

"The other change which hashad a n oticeable impact on Mercyhurst was, of course, the switchto coeducation. In thepast, wewere often thought of ass afinishing school, although wewere always academicallystronger than a finishing school.As society changed, we naturallybegan to relax some of the oldstandards which were no longerrelevant, such as the dress code.Coeducation has changed ourwhole way of living,j Although westill consider characterdevelopment ^important, ourprimary emphasis has shitted tothe intellectual growth of theindi vidua1 student.'' *. i

When asked whatyvas the mostsatisfying experience during hertenure, Sr. Carolyn cited her"relationship with the students."3"I can't;single out any specificexperience, but I, have alwaysenioved talking* with students.

My lifehas been devoted to youngpeople, first asa teacher and thenas president It's not that I havedeveloped a personal friendshipwith each student, but I havealwaysbeen available ifa studentwanted to discuss a problem.Also, the president of a collegecan allow things to happen.4 If thestudents expressed interest in anidea, I have always allowed theirideas to become realities." f $

In expressing her philosophy ofeducation, Sr. Carolyn stressedtwo concepts. "First, I believestrongly that every man educateshimself.^ Teachers are themotivaters in the educationalprocess; they provide the opportunity to learn. j$ Secondly,education is a lifelong process.We are attempting to put thisconcept I into practice byestablishingour College for O lderCitizens. Also, I hope that thestudents learn by watching thefaculty^ The process of inquirynever stops; even after thecompletion o{ a doctoral programone realizes t that there is stillmuch to be learned." |

In a moment of retrospection.Sr. Carolyn stated that "If I hadto do it all over agin, I don't thinkI would have done anythingdifferently.; I think that we'vegone in the right direction. Boththe decision to change* thecurriculum and to gocoeducational were solid, validdecisions. Also, a college isonly*?}as good as its faculty. I've beenvery fortunate to be a president^with a dynamic faculty. *

The best expression of appreciation^ Sr. Carolyn camefrom Dean Garvey.|" Sr. Carolynrepresents the best of the oldandthe new: the eleganceand dignity $of the old and the relevance andinvolvement of the:new. Under her guidance the attitude of thejjcollege has changed to recognize^the student as an adult. Ouremphasis has also shifted fromcharacter development to.v in-tellectualization without abandoning character, f Sr./Carolynwas clearly ?the leader for allseasons ft?which S Mercyhurst^needed." j

In September, 1972 Father GuyPatrick will assume the post ofMercyhurst College Chaplain. Hewill replace Father John,Hilbert>Diocesan Director of ReligiousEducation, who has been CollegeChaplain since: 1968. FatherPatrick has been a teacher ofEnglish and a Counselor at St.Mark Seminary since his ordination in 1961.In addition to hisduties at the Seminary, Fatherwas part-time chaplain atAllegheny College in Meadv ille in1968, and has been part-timechaplain at Behrend Campussince 1969. He will continue toserve at Behrend in addition to hisduties at Mercyhurst.

Because of his special interestin working with people, Father"Pat" has been involved in manyactivities of the diocese, as wellas on the college scene. He hasbeen actively involved in theDiocesan|Cursillo Movement, ingiving retreats to many groups, inparticipating in the vPeaceMovement,fand jj in contributingcreatively to the IntercampusMinistry group of the diocese.

Mercyhurst ^welcomes FatherPat and wisheshim well.

On * Thursday May 11th,students were informed by letterthat the cost of attending Mercyhurst College for the72-73 yearwould be^increased. Tuition for

the upcoming y earis set at $1725.Room and board rates were set at$1100. O ffsetting thesera teg liter eases Is a $ 100 decrease inStudent Activities Fees .

In an interview with Mr. E.W.Kennedy, Director of StudentAffairs, ajfew of the questionsraised concerning the increasedfinancial costs at Mercyhurst forthe 1972-1973 school year wereexplained, f *i f

Regarding the rise of tuition,Mr. Kennedy stated that it is due,generally, to the overall rise inthe cost of living today; and, inparticular, as it relates to ourown college community, the increase involves:

the addition of new faculty

members in certain departments. the rise*of institutionalcosts, e.g. lighting, maintenance,security, replacement ofeducational equipment I

j the increase in facultysalaries as a whole. i

This can be understood from

the fact that the? bulk of Mer-cyhurst's funds must come fromtuition, rather? than f fromdonations, grants, e tc.| ".The change in the structure ofthe Student Activity F ee, that is achange from $125 to $25, meansthat the college willM assume allthose costs such as thenewspaper, yearboook, and othervarious activities, as opposed tochanneling it to the StudentActivity Fee. At the same time,the college will have control overeverything but the$25, which willbe funneled to R.U.S. Simply, it isa matter of transferring part ofthe Student Activity Fee andplacing it within the structure oftuitioa"

Concerning room andr boardcosts, the major factors are food,water, and electricity. Thesethree basic institutional needs a recontinuingto cost more as m onthsgoby. H*' jg |

Thus, these are the majorreasons that the Budget FinanceCommittee andi the Board ofTrustees at Mercyhurst * havefound it necessary to raise thetuition, room and board for theupcoming school year.

TheAdministrative

ShaftEditors Note: I The following

article was written nearly amonth ago. It was not printed atthe request of an administrator. Iwas asked, in good faith, to waituntil the board of trustees met todiscuss the financial future ofMercyhurst. This meeting did nottake place in time for my articleto appear in the May 12th issue ofthe MERCIAD. |

It is with regret that repUes cannot&jbe aired through thisnewspaper in thenear future (thisbeing the last until September).Yet, anyone who wishes to maketheir opinion publicly known mayuse the \ bulletin boardsthroughout the cam pus.

The Administration hasreduced th e 'Student ActivitiesFee from $125 yo $25. Wonder ofwonder, miracles of miracles -not quite. This but a delusion ofgrandeur! t

To offset the$100 reduction, theadministration has increasedtuition from the present $1550 to$1725 for72-73. (A $175 increase).Coupled with the tuition hike willbe an increase of$100 in room andboard rates. i *

In figures, it breaks down^asfollows: I.

I COSTS $ |71-72 | 72-73$ 125.... . . FEES $. 25$1,550 Tuition $1,725$1,000..Room & Board $1,100

$2,675 TOTAL ?i | | $2,850It should be pointed! out that

there is justification for the increase in costs. The tuition increase of $75 (the $100 transferfrom Student Activities Feeftotuition will be discussed below)will be used to- booster theinadequate counseling servicesand improve the Placement

services.The $100 raise in room and

board rates can be justified bythe increase of both food andutility prices.

What cannot be justified is thearbitrary shifting of $100 of theStudent Activities Fee to tuition.It is a tactic used byan untrustingadministration to assurer moneyfor various programs that itthinks necessary. I will notquestion either the sincerity ofthe administration nor thevalidity of the programs itsupports.!

My purpose, in a word, is tochastise the administration fortheir lack oftrust in its student.

It is to chastise the ad

ministration for not taking thetime nor evoking an effort to talkwith the students concerning thisissue. (A brief dialogue betweenone student, even though thestudent is representative of thestudents, and one administrationdoes not constitute a communication betweeen la d-ministration and students.)

It is to chastise the administration for their sophisticjustification for such a transfer.Bookkeeping may veryWeill beeasier with? said transfer. Yet,why has it taken the administration over two?years toarrive at this decision? Personally, it seems that, as som e ofthe vocal few among the studentsbegan questioning thebreakdown

of the activities fee, some individuals in the administrationdecided it was time for a change.Even if'the administration's intentions were honorable, I do notfeel their actions were. Again, letme stress this is my personalview. But if this view is correct, Ithink it is time forsOme people to,ask themselves, "Does the endjustify the means?*'

Promises? Pollsand PredictionsThey were wrong. They said it

was all over - the sit-ins, themarches, the dem onstrations, theprotests, the Movement. The"mood," as they called it , jihad"subsided," as they described it.It was back to the 50's, the

magazines said. There's a newmood of good oldt Americanapathy among today's students,the editorialists said. And why?Becausew e were so disillusioned,they said, so the days of Berkeleyand bombings, Kent State andconfusion were over and it wasback to the apatheticwomb.*

Were they ever wrong. Theanger was there ~ it just hadmanifested itself in differentways . Maybe we felt morehopeful for the first tim e in manyyears, more optimistic becausew e couldVote. Or because maybethings seemedbetter.' :I mean, wehad been promised a quick andclean end'to that War. We hadGeorge McGovern. And we hadhealth foods, macrame, organic

gardening and other indulgencesthat the periodicals periodicallysaid were "ourthings" we weredoing instead.

And then a few weeks agoPresident Nixon sanghisklatest^end-the-war-before-election-time-blues and - pop - within hours,things blew? up all over again allover the country.

S o now we should get ready fora whole new slew of polls andpredictions thatwill tell us how tofee) for the next six sick month s.

Well, I'm tired of the predictions and I'm tired of the protests.I'm tired of the broken promises,I'm tired of not knowing what todot with the anger. The recentprotestswere an outlet forstored-up anger, but other* than that,they haven't done much. good.They; fall on deaf fears. ThePresident doesn't listen and tomany older people who view ouranger on the SixO'Clock News,we're giving peacea-bad name.There's nothing that turns peopleoff more, as they turn their setson more, than |young > peopleblockading andt barricading,taking over buildings andthrowingrocks.Well, of cours e, itwasn't EVERYONE - but you

Having only just recently undergone theirthird m ajor personnel change in three years guitarist Robin Trower leaving in the wake of adisastrous tour of Italy, guitarist Dave Ball andbassist Alan Cartwright joining, and ChrisCopping takingup permanent residence behindthe organ Procol Harum surmised that inNovember, 1971,the wise thing to do would beto retrace their musical step s ofthe precedingthree years. ml

Being a band of vision and lofty aspiration,though, Procol sought to make the tour morethan merely a series of performances ofoldies-butrgoldies, but also a preparation for therecording of the sort of live album that befits ahand of visionan d lofty aspiration.

To makesuch an album, one that wouldgiorify as well as simply remind ofearliertriumphs, they, being makers of Tmusic whosemajesty, intelligence, and emotional grandeuroccasionally derives from and always evokesthe class ics, w ould require the accompanimentof a symphony orchestra. |

Graduating seniors usuallytake j .certain l iberties uponthemselves. This being the case, Iplan to disregard some rules ofgood journalism (not that I everfollowed them). It is not proper towrite referringto yourself as " I" .However, in order for me toadequately sum up my feelingstowards Mercyhurst andathletics, if can only expressmyself in a very personal manner.*? Vi When I first- took this job two

years ago, I never realized thedifficulties that would he involved. Being a ratherathletically-mindedjperson I.thought all people thought alongthe sam e; l ines., Mercyhurst

however, awokeme. I have heardcriticism of the athletic programsince my first day at this institution. Sometimes, I think thecriticism was anover-reaction tohighly unlikely, possibilitie s.Other times, I think certaincrit icisms were (and are)justified. I *

Mercyhurst has neither thephysical nor financial resourcesto ever go into "big-time'*athletics. It (Mercyhurst) shouldnever loseits perspective of beinga good academic institution.Athletics shouldn't be allowed toreplace scholasticism,but'whoever proposed Chat? I agree thatextremes have to be avoided inthe athletic program,but,aren'textremesbad in most cases ? gg,

I wrote an article earlier thisyear concerning "non-attendance" at basketball games.Since then, | l have receivedcertain comments that make mewant to justify my stand. First ofall, the article did not say that onehad to support athletics in orderto enjoy the "total college experience." I used athletics just asan exam ple of -the prevalentapathetic att i tude towardsEVERYTHING-which I felt then,andffeel now, still exists. Socialactivit ies, cultural events,especially student government -all are are as in which the collegeshows a lack of interest. Thereare, of course, some who supportcertain ventures wholeheartedly,but I will write about tho se peoplelater. |

|Any personjcan be highly enthused aboutone area in which heparticipates. I feel that waytowards athletics. I wouldn'twant to lose that which I havegained while'being engaged inathletic competition.

year's tennisseason).Moments ofhilarity (being stranded with thebasketball teamin a snowstorm);and moments of,despair (losingour first tennis matchin2 years toEdinboro, 5-4). I would neverwant to forget the friendships andacquaintances I have madethrough athletics. AsSportsEditor, I have enjoyed watchingthe golf tea ml show tremendousimprovement; the crew teamdeveloping from infancy; and thegreat start of the basketballprogram at Mercyhurst. As forthe tennis team, how could oneforget the experiences and thepeople he has practically "livedand died" with for2 years. I cansay this much for athletics, but I

know that other people have gotthe same type of experience inother areas.

The last statment leads to whatI want to say in this, my lastjournalistic endeavor. I havepointed out that athletics is butone part of the college experience. There are manyotherareas of college life in which astudent may participate if he sochooses. It is possible,fandprobable, that students couldbecome highly committed to onesegment such as social activities,cultural events or athletics. It isalso just as likely that a studentcould be very caught up in hismajor field of academic concentration-Art, History, English,etc. If such a person becomes too

involved in one area, isn't it verypossible his scholastic, or part ofhis scholastic development, willsuffer? I feel it is just as probablefor an athlete to become too involved in sports as it is forsomeone else to be too involved insocial, cultural or* other \ extracurricular activities.

Will someone please explain-why, then there is this pervasiveattitude here that the athletelacks awell-rounded perspective.In this so-called "learned"community of ours, isn't it ratherstrange that educated peopleshould take this extremelynarrow point of view. If they areso broad-minded why do somehold athletes in contempt forextremes which also occur inother areas!One wonders if thecritics fail to notice, or simplyrefuse, because they themselvesare gu i l ty?

came to an embarrassing halthalfway through when the groupand orchestra lost track of oneanother, third) cracks at thoseselections they decided couldJ>edone better, scarcely a personmoved. Surveying this scene, onegot the distinct impression that,had Procol gone into the weesmall hours in an attempt toperfect its performance it wouldhave beenin front of the samefullhouse.

What necessitated the group'staking second cracks was theirhaving originally arrived onstageextremely nervous. Through thefirst few numbers Brooker'svoice, for instance,was-.a timidand occasionally even off-keyshadow of its usual searingsoulful self,-and B.J.Wilson,customarily dynamic and brutal,attacked his drums as if theywere made of porcelain.

Then, gradually, the band gotout of neutral:jBrooker's voicebeginning to cut as cleanly andsharply as usual, regaining itsability to leap extrem ely difficultmelodic intervals with assuranceand power; B.J., the mysteriousbald spot on the left side of hishead glistening dramatically inthe lights, walloping his drums

with abandon, once again con-fident in his strange and uniquesyncopated style; Cartwright andCopping, on bass and organ,holaing the foundation secure;and Ball, wincing in his distinctive apologetic-looking fashion,wringing terrified screams|andangry sputters of sound from hislittle cherry Gibson.

With the band in gear now andthe orchestra holding itsown withthe cog ent sand in tellige ntarrangements Brooker hadwritten for it (arrangements thatat no time resembled the mushy,melodramatic string-laden excesses resorted to by most of theother rock people who haveattempted such an enterprise), thelistener*s attention was-| free tomove from the early intrusive

tension of the band to the extraordinary beauty and grace ofBroo ker's Jmelodies. to theemotional power of Keith Reid'swords. i ^ i #b As always Procol made musicto emotionally affect, $ to bemarvelled at for its elegance andpower. Some, like "WhalingStories," was chilling, eerie,for boding. Some, like "LuskusDelp,"was politely gentle.

There were alsoschools that werenot-so good.Against them all we wererespectable. We've mademistakes that cost us a fewracesbut it's nothing thatcannot be corrected. Next yearwell have the experience of ourfirst year as a team togetherunder our belts, and we'll bebetter.We won'tbe considered as
