    Proposed Tuit ion HikeBelow National AverageIA4\ rjAftv

    By Carta J. AndersonMerciad Assistant EditorThe Mercyhurst College ad-ministration has developed the1983-84 tuition proposal, whichwas accepted by the* Budget andFinance Committee, explainedDr. William P. Garvey, presidentof the college. J"The tuition proposal will begiven to the Board of Trustees forthe March 17 meeting. Only theboard can approve the tuitionproposal," said Dr. Garvey."The tuition proposal increasefor next year is $390 and $100 forroom and board," stated Garvey.According to Dr. Garvey, usuallythe tuition proposal isn't decideduntil May. "This year we are try-ing to let students know early," headded. *Dr. Garvey explained that the

    overall increase is 8 percent."This reflects three things: Thereis a decline in the rate of inflation,the increasing financial strengthof the college and students havereached a bout all the financial aidpossible," stated Dr. Garvey."The increase is low for the quali-ty of faculty we have," he added."It was a mighty effort to holdthe tuition increased down. It'sbelow the national average andlower than area colleges. We com-pare favorably," said Dr. Garvey.According to Dr. Garvey, thetuition increase is mostly due toutilities, faculty and staff salariesand financial aid.*"We didn't want to drive outthe number of good students wehave, and we don't want to makethis a rich kid's school," said Dr.Garvey.? *

    Reagan Seeks More Aid Cuts1 "Self-Help Grant" May Be Replacement

    By Martha CampMERCIAD Feature EditorPresident -Reagan has again proposed several changes ingovernmental student financial aid policy. - AFirst, Reagan has asked Congress to abolish thei NationalDirect Student L oan, Supplemental* Educational OpportunityGrant and the State Student Incentive Grant. He plans to replacethese programs with a new "Self-Help Grant." -This new grant program will require that every student pay partof h is educational expenses / an assumed 40 percent of totaleducational costs, regardless of income.fc "Traditionally, the burden of financial aid has been on the stu-dent and family as a whole," said Cathy Crawford, Mercyhurstdirector of financial aid. *"The adm inistration is just returning to this philosoph y." sheexplained.In addition, Reagan has proposed new .regulations for thedisbursement of Pell Grants - now to be known as "Self-HelpGrants." '. > I IUnder new guidelines, which would come into effect in 1984,about 80 percent of the grant money be reserved for studentsfrom families earning less than $12,000. Although the maximumgrant will be raised to $3,000, most of the awards will go to lowincome students with high educational costs.Planning to supplement lost grant money with student loan?There will be new regulations there, too.Currently, only students with family or personal incomes over$30,000 have to submit to a needs test for a Guaranteed Student

    Loan. However, new p roposals would require all students to sub-mit to a needs test.Reagan has put forth plans to increase funding for Pell Grantsand GSL 's (although eligibility requirements will be much m orestrict) and the college work-study programs.This may be one bright spot in the President's plans - a nearly$300 million increase in work study funds.Crawford says this increase will present "the ability to earnmore money per individual and get more students involved in the(work-study) programs.'' '. Crawford also emphasized the unique position of Mercyhurststudents in the midst of these new regulations:"One good thing, they're predicting that 400,000 studentswould be eliminated (from receiving aid), but they will be loweror m iddle income students attending low-cost schools," she said.Since Mercyhurst is in the upper-middle price range, many'Hurst students may receive aid who would not be eligible forfederal money if they were attending a low-cost school.

    Ope For BusinessNow that a mental health counselor is available on camp us,it would be a shame to let his expertise go to waste. *Not everyone has problems. But those who experiencestress or conflicts in such areas as time management, family,friends, alcohol, or drugs should visit 212 Old Main and see iftheir situation may be eased a bit.There is nothing wrong with getting counseling. In fact,most peop le think it admirable when an individual takes theintelligent step and seeks p rofessional help to m ake their lifehappier and easier to live. When the counseling is free, as it isat Mercyhurst, there is all the more reason to take advantageof it . \ Warren Hohw ald's credentials are impressive. His counsel-ing skill is badly needed at the college. In this time of stuntedeconomic growth and soaring unemployment coupled withthe gray days of winter and post-midterm mad ness, many atMercyhurst will seriously consider a conference withHohwald. Bravo to them!After the months of work and debate which accompaniedthe acquistion of a campus counselor, it really would be un-sound to let his listening ears go unused.The Mercfad welcomes the expres-sions of its readers in "Your Opinion".All!letters must be;signed and should4 contain an address ori telephone number tobe used for verifica- Lettertion purposesContributions willonly.beedited for gram-

O n e major reasonfor this was the play of GroveCity's Jodie Imbrie, w h o holdsthe Division II I scoring title forNCAA, w ho netted 33 points fo rthe n ight.ImbrieV performance was notonly key in the defeat, but the factthat fouls plagued th e Lady

    Lakers seeing four players retiredu e t o five personal fouls. Thisleft th e Blue an d Green with onlythree players to continue the gamewith about 10 seconds left in thecontest.The 'Hurst wa s only down bythe score of 35-38 at the half, bu tlost the contest 88-74. The Lakers'performance was highlighted by a20-point high by Tricia Mahoney,and freshman Jeana White cameoff th e bench to ad d 10.Grove City stands;at an im-pressive 19-3 o n th e season. ] | |The Lady Lakers h ad betterluck over th e weekend;as theydumped Westminster College by aconvincing 60-47 >triumph.

Chris Venn-ing added 25 more tallies forMansfield S tate.Despite 14 first half points by

    John Green, the 'Hurst went intothe lockerroom down by two,40-38. kHowever, the small Mansfieldcrowd seemed to enjoy the "JohnGreen Basketball ShootingClime" more than the game.The beginning of the secondhalf is when Green i began hisshooting exhibition. He went intothe ballgame needing 24 markersto hit the illustrious 1,000 pointplateau of his collegiate career,and a fter scoring 14 tallies in theopening stanza, he only needed 10more. Well, with 16:15 still remainingin the ballgame, Green sunk hishistoric point. He accounted forthe first ten scores of the secondsession.The crowd oohed and aahedand cheered as Green put on afantastic second half show.
