NolanMerciad Staff ReporterStudent Government PresidentRichard Lanzillo presented aCapital Improvements Fund Pro -posal to the Mercyhurst StudentGovernment (MSG) on Monday.The representatives i accepted theproposal i with an all in favorresponse. '.The purpose of the proposal isto establish a special fund withinthe 1983*84 and- consequentbudgets to be used strictly forcapital improvements for the Stu-dent Union. All the .revenuegenerated from the Student Unionvideo machines, pinball machinesand jukebox?would be used forthis fund. The total revenue fromthe arcade machines for 1983-84 isprojected to be $6,500. Currently,this revenue is collected by the col-lege. Therefore, the proposal willhave to bep accepted by the ad-ministration before implementa-tion will go into effect.Following the acceptance of theCapital Improvements Fund Pro-posal by MS G,| freshmenrepresentative Dean Hall broughtforth another tproposal. Hal1'sproposal is to use the Capital Im-provements Fund for the purchase

    of a large screen television, videocassette recorder and a permanenttape library in the Student Union .Hall explained that studentswould be able to see the m ovies bysigning out a tape with theirI.D.'s. The estimated cost of the

    large screen television and videocassette recorder would be $ 4,000A motion was made by MariaSantangelo to table this proposauntil the administration makes decision on the Capital i Improvements Fund Proposal.

    Letter

    The Sfafe Of The CollegeJust as the Presid ent of t he United S tates delivers a State ofthe Union Address each January, so has the President of Mer-cyhurst College, in effect. In the 34th annual progress reportand business review appearing in the Sunday limes News, Dr .William P. Garvey revealed the present "state of the college"

    and plans for th e future. Several points raised in Dr. Garvey'snarrative are worthy of mention here.It is reassuring to learn that Mercyhurst is not part of thedistressing trend of decreasing private college enrollments. Hestates that the college has its highest enrollment ever of 1,300students. And at a time when the national economy and thesurvival of U.S. colleges and universities are extremelyunstable and unpredictable, Mercyhurst can boast a budgetsurplus. This, according to Dr. Garvey, is the ninth time inten years that this has occurred.The era of the computer has not swept through the countrywithout first descending upon Mercyhurst. "Perhaps themost visible progress in 1982 was the rapid computerizationof |the college ," states 'President Garvey. The Hewlett-Packard m ain line computer and over 40 terminals perform in ^ administrative and academic capacities while the Learning w C 3 p G Q 0 3 I S-Resource Center can now offer a computer information .retrieval service. I ? fState approval was granted for three new associate degreeprograms in business administration, religious studies, andinterior design, announced Dr. Garvey. New majors expectedto be added toj, the curriculum < in 1983 are undergraduatedegrees in business and th e health professions. It is importantto see that plans for the academic future of the college arekeeping up with1 the constantly I changing state of highereducation.At a time when wellness and physical fitness of th e body arejust as important as the fitness of the mind, Dr. Garvey putsforth his plans for expanded workout facilities at the CampusCenter and construction of a fitness trail in conjunction withMercyhurst Prep. * 1While there are no goals to expand the enrollment, thePresident states: 1

    students was unjustified. I live inBaldwin Hall and I find it verydisturbing that she refers to thediscipline as a "babysitting pro-gram." I feel her personal pro-blems of adjusting to dorm lifeand relating to other studentswere blown way, out of propor-tion, using us as her scapegoat.Maybe if those people whocomplain so much could find timeto come down off their pedestaland relate to the other students,instead of standing behind theirself-made divine walls and con-demning them, the communityspirit that a Catholic School issupposed' to reflect may becomemore apparent. .'Sincerely, Laura Ruby/HeidiJenci \ a1 2 7 B a l dw i n H a l lEDITOR'S NOTE: The opi-nions expressed in Letters to theEditor art not necessarily the opi-nions of THE MERCIAD, thestudent body, or the administra-tion.

    Book-LendEditorial ArguedLetterPrivacy Understanding"Somewhat Lacking"

    In last week's article "Privacy:The Right Way, SThe WrongWay" the reporter makes thestatement, "It seems to us (theMerciad staff?) that the residentdoes not understand the meaningof privacy." He goes on to defineprivacy as "The condition of be-ing secluded." However, that isonly one definition. Webster'scontinues with, "freedom fromunauthorized intrusion." Thisdefinition seems closer to the typeof privacy the resident had inmind. The reporter also claimsthat if the resident's actions arenot hurting anybody, sthe RA's will not be bothered bythem. That statement is complete-ly false. It is the RA's andsecurity's responsibility to enforcethe rules, even the inane ones. The

    rules concerning alcohol are notto prevent "a damaging ex-perience to the b rain," but are inaccordance with PennsylvaniaState law. jThe resident's main objectionseemed to focus on current inter-visitation policies. The removal ofintervisitation hours would notallow "all sorts of illegal things,"the: proof to this is found in theexistence of other colleges wherethere are no regulations on inter-visi tat ion. The reporter 'sunderstanding of privacy andtrust* seems* somewhat lacking,and his \ article is an unfairresponse to the resident'scomplaint. * *Sincerely,Dean Hall

    Dear Editor, ^ ^ ^ ^Last week's editorial j titled,"Book-Lend May be Dead End ,"shows a series of misconceptionsthat I would like to correct at thistime. ' \ VjJ The first mistake was wastingthree fourths of the editorial onthe original Book-Lend proposal.Since this proposal wasn't passed,it really isn't an issue, but merelyan idea j hat wasn't feasible forStudent Government at the time.Instead, a revised Book proposalwas passed which only contained,the same essential spirit of defray-ing the high cost of text materialsfor students.As it stands now, governmenthas formed a committee to collectused textsi, from students alongwith a list of the prices they wishto receive for them^Then, theBook Committee, acting as amediator will hold a Book Fair atthe beginning of each term for ap-proximately three days. TheEditorial stated, "the secondMSO proposal seems to involve alot of work without;any solidguarantee that enough studentsTHE M ERCIAD

    would take advantage of it. I sub-mit that in life there is only one"Solid Guarantee" . . . .Death.However, later in the editorial thesame exact;idea was cited as a"good alternative," for solvingthe problem of high book costs.The list of misconceptions,fallacies and pure hypocracies, inthe editorial are extensive. Insteadit merely attacks, and condemns aworthwhile idea designed basical-ly for the welfare of the students.The editorial states that "manystudents refer to purchase anewbook and retain it for*futurer e f e r e n c e . " ^ " I s t r o n gl ydisagree!" For those of us thathave to pay our own tuition, theinordinant burden of buying newtexts is a problem.

    Mercyhurst StudentsDisplay ProfessionalismBy Marjorie McDermottThe Mercyhurst community Mercyhurst C ollege is truly a com-munity which displays the uniquecombination of personal warmthand caring with academic profes-sionalism. The members of thecommunity "on theiiill" respondto each other in the most positiveways. As Director of Student Ac-tivities, I have been in a positionto observe many facets of this in-teraction in daily campus life.There is an ever-present feeling ofwarmth and professionalismwhich underscores any exchangeamong administrators, faculty,staff, and students.The overall philosophy at Mer-cyhurst is based upon providingstudents with the maximum op-portunities to develop as profes-sional individuals.'This is an ex-citing concepts Students ex-perience open communication,positive and negative feedback, as
