Gamma chapter to begin at 'HurstBy Mary Frances LoncharicThe third chapteriof Delta

Omega "Alpha sorority willbegin at Mercyhurst. DeltaOmega Alpha was founded atAlliance college in 1980. Oncepart of the national sororityDelta iZe ta , the soror i tybecame independent land

changed the name.Delta Omega Alpha ap-propriately means the end andthe beginning. Mercyhurst hasnever had a social sorority orfraternity come to its campus,although it has professionalfraternities that have been setup within the individualdepartments, I

Mercyhurst's chapter of thissorority will be called theGamma chapter. The?secondchapter, Beta, began at -St.Mary's College »in OrchardLake \ Michigan with muchsuccess.^

The s o r o r i t y r ec en t l ycelebrated their fifth anniver-sary'in April. They currently

have 38 alumnae. The sororitys ta r t ed a l i t t l e b r o the rorganization in September,1984. f * | *

A group of Mercyhurststudents have been interestedin the sorority for some time.Evelyn Garnowski and LynnPiotrowicz are very excitedabout it. Evelyn is a Mer-cy hurst-transf ef~stodeaU£romAlliance College and AlumniPresident of Delta OmegaAlpha. * * ? i i

Lynn, who is interested inbecoming a founding sister ofthe Mercyhurst chapter/ hasbeen nominated to becomePresident of the chapter, [-$

Lynn and six other Mer-

cyhurst students will pledgeto the sorority over the sum-mer. The other students are:Jodi Abbey, Lynn Hardner,Susan Flakner, Jennifer Laird,Mary Frances Loncharic, andSandra Taylor. I

Evelyn Garnowski and LynnPiotrowicz approached E.

William Kennedy, Director ofStudent Services at Mer-cyhurst, with the sorority'sconstitution. The chapter'sown f bylaws Jmust Jstill bedrawn up and approved byKennedy before the chapterbecomes official. The igrouphas received acceptance toorganize on campus from Ken-nedy and Mercyhurst StudentGovernment.

President of Delta OmegaAlpha j (Alliance), AundreaCika, and a few sisters fromthe sorority came to Mer-cyhurst for a visit and presen-tation on April 28. |

Cika believes that studentshave the wrong impressions of

sororities. Common assump-tions |are that extensive . oreven ridiculous activities mustbe accom plished to join or par-ticipate or that it will cost a lotof money. |

The only stipulations thatthe sorority ho lds are that a 2.0grade point average be main-tained and first semester

transfer'students) may^notp ledge . F i r s t s emes te rstudents need time to becomeacquainted ;With the collegeand the sorority. «

The Gamma (Mercyhurst)chapter will review the QPA re-quirement with Kennedy. Achange to a'higher require-

ment may be made. The girlswould like to keep the averageat a 2.0 and cite that the QPAfor athletes in their junior andsenior year* is a 2.0; theaverage Is lower for freshmenand sophomore athletes.' jj

The cost is quite m inimal, atwenty-five dollar pledge fee is

needed for sorority historybook, shirt, and pin. A generalfee of fifty dollars will be paidfor the year's activities.

The sorority pin is a bar withthe symbols for Delta OmegaAlpha engraved. The sororitytries to coordinate monthlyphilanthropic a ctivities as wellas brother-sister functions,and, of course, parties. It alsostresses the importance ofcommunity and campus ser-vice. Cystic Fibrosis is s theorganization's charity. | M

Delta Omega Alpha's crestconsists o f a large Delta, uponwhich is the Greek words;Woman, Scholarship, and In-dividualism. Inside the Delta

are two hands, clasped infriendship,fand an open booksymbolizing scholarship andfaith. The writing on the pageof the book is Polish for "GodWatch Over Us." A lighted can-dle on the crest symbolizeslighting the way and a key isthe symbol for knowledge andopening doors. !$ *-JPhe ^ o cor ty_Js g mr §n t Lvseekfftg^iTfemale -facultyadvisor. * I

The founding sisters of thischapter recognize that theymust be dedicated and hard-working, so that the sororitycan become a legacy for Mer-cyhurst students. J

The Old, The New

and The GraduatesIt 's an awkward time of the term. Most of us are finishing upspring term, a few of us have just finished up winter term workand some of us are even looking forward to next fall term.

Most of the major campus organizations have new officersand are trying to q uietly wind up this year while still working andplotting away for next year. Within the past week, SAC haschosen their leaders for the, 1985-1986 year. The HotelRestaurant Management Association will have their leaders inplace next week. MSG and WMCY have had next year's crews inplace for a few weeks.

The Merclad has a new staff that is worth mentioning.Chris Cardinali, a freshman HRM major, will be next year's

News Editor. He brings with him much experience from thisyear, as well as diversified interests that will contribute to aclose, hard-working staff. j j g | j a *

Sophomore E nglish major Susan Marcy has accepted the jobas Feature Editor. She has contributed some interestingfeatures to this yea r's paper and has some great ideas for nextyear. yj

jLori Martin, a sophomore English major, brings her talents tothe newly created position of Calendar Editor. Lori will be incharge of compiling happenings, facts and tidbits for "BulletinBoard", "Weekend" and the new column called;"ETC". j | £

Junior Debbie Hison will wear two hats as DistributionManager and Co-Sports Editor. Debbie has three years ofnewspaper experience }and has an exuberant personality thatmakes the staff m ore interesting. v§ R.J. Zonna will co-edit'the Sports Page? with Debbie. R.J.knows his sports and should bring added insight to Page 8.

Rena Zicarelli and her flying fingers w ill be back to help iTheMerciad to meet those chaotic deadlines and will even havesome other IMPORTANT dutie s. i i i

Of course, many staff reporters will continue their fine jour-nalistic work in next year's editions. (But new people are alwayswelcome on staff$)jMSG will be joinin g The Merciad staff next year. The Ex-

ecutive Board plans to have a weekly column ca lled "MS G: Offthe Record." ; f

The Merciad staff will be getting a new advisor. Dennis Mc-Carthy will join the Mercyhurst Communications Deapartment

teaching mo stly print courses. McCarthy had previously taughtjournalism afcVilla Maria College. He brings with him extensiveadvising experience, especially in print publications. *f There's some interesting activities and organizations to look

forward to n ext year. It seems like fraternities and sororities maybe making their debut on the Mercyhurst campus next year. r

In regards to last week's story on faculty salaries nationwide,there needs to be some clarification. The story reflected na-tional trends and not those necessarily here on the MercyhurstCollege campus .The National P laywrights Showcase has got-ten approximately 114 entries from 21 states, including Alaska.The Showcase was initiated In 1983 calling for unproducedplays to be sent for evaluation and judging to Mercyhurst Col-lege. The three purposes of Showcase were to provide an outletfor new works by American playwrights, to establish Mer-

xyhurst, and Erie as an important regional and national theatre

force, and to provide new playwrights with support and presentnew works fot the theater. The deadline for submissions wasMay 15. Winners will be chosen within the next month and ahalf .....The Laker Shakers will be back for th eir fifth year of per-formances next year. Newly appointed Choreographer, NatalieRaitano and Student Director Kathy Dee expect to hold tryoutsin September The D'Angelo School of Music's own piano ex-traordinaire Sam Rotman will perform a special concert withguest violinis t D avid Ta ylor of the Chicago Symphony Or-chestra. The two will perform on Sunday, May 19 at 3:00 in St.Mark's Auditorium . 'The concert w ill ?be presented free of

charge The Mercyhurst Art Faculty Summer Show at theCummings Gallery in the Hammermill Library will run from Sun-day May, 19. A mixed media wi ll be presented by Art Departmentfaculty members: Shelle Barron, Daniel Burke, Marsha Cisek,Thomas H ubert, Ernest Ma uthe, Joseph Pizzat and Mary Rosiak.Try and'catch the works o f some of2our creative | facil i-ty!

MAY 16,1985 THE MERCIAD PAGE

Reflections of! a pond biologistBy Dr. Michael Campbell v mI knew I was in trouble when

a huge student sauntered intoclass wearing a World War IIMarine - combat helmet andtook a seat in the back row. All77 seats In the small lecturehall were soon filled Swith anoisy hyperactive mo b. k

While I had been a graduatestudent at Texas A&M Univer-sity, I had learned how to planand write environmental im-pact statements and how touse "multivariate stat ist icalprocedures to analyze largedata sets, butjthey had nevertold me what to do on the firstday of class with a hot roomfull of rowdy freshmen. Myteaching career was about tobe baptized with fire. |

For any; teacher, the firstyear of teaching is an excitingyear full of discoveries: aboutstudents and what makesthem tick, abouUthe subjecthe or she teaches, and abouthis or her capabilities andlimitations as a teacher.

if I survive the month ofMay, I will have been blessedWith l^ttref thi*»rS"»and wem*periences of two first years ofteaching - each at two very dif-f e rent ins t i t u t ions . Whatfollows is a comparison (andcontrast) of some of my firstyear teaching experiences.

My first impressions of thetwo schools were vastly dif-ferent. When I saw Ranger

Junior College fi n Ranger,Texas, for the first time I toldmyself that I would never work

there. However, fate and apoor job market for! newP h . D . ' s ' s o o n p r o v e dotherwise. *

When i later saw MercyhurstCollege for the first time I fellin love with it. That first glimp-se of Old Main through theblack iron gate at the front of

mpreSft^est

riding on the inside lane of theIndianapolis 500 auto race. 4

The hourly chiming of thebells at Mercyhurst certainlyimparts a pleasant rhythmiccharm t o t he academic lifehere. The imost d ist inct iverhythmic sound at Ranger wasthe simultaneous revving ofcar engines i every Thursdayafternoon when th e studentsheaded home|for their three-day weekend. I

In some ways th e studentshere are similar t o those atRanger. I've heard many of thesame excuses. Students atboth places ar e prone t o t hesame mysterious undiagnos-ed il lnesses and disabil it ies,and there | are always room-mates that fail in their respon-

s ib i l i t i es as human alarmclocks.* In j;every class that I have

taught at both schools therehas always been at least o nestudent w h o thought , i t wascool t o strollt into class latenearly every day . And o fcourse there are always one ortwo students w h o fail every

students is much better herethan it was at Ranger. Last spr-

ing I lost s ix students fromone class in General Biologybecause they were thrown injai l and expelled from schoolfor crimes including ca r theft

and burglary J I 7 M v?The amount o f t im a I .have

had t o spend in preparation fo rclasses has been about th esame at t he two schools.? Ihave seen 3:00 i n t he morningat least two or three nights aweek for the past"two years. Ihope t o ge t more sleep nextyear. f ft |;iThe long

work have

sion. I immediately wanted tobe a part4 of MercyhurstCollege.

Th e two |schools jwereworlds apart in the pace oftheir scheduling and academiccalendar. Ranger utilized a tor-t u ro u s l y l o ng s e m e s t e rsystem with classes beingheld only Monday throughThursday. Teaching at Mer-cyhurst this year has been like

office at the end of the term toask how good their chancesare for a " C " i n t he course .^

Mercyhurst students aremore adept at taking notesthan were Ranger students;however, Ranger studentswere 1 much more innovativethan Mercyhurst* students at

finding ways to cheat onexams.fc.. Finally, the attrition rate of

hours and hardbeen worth it

though, when I consider someof the highlights of my?twofirst years. I remember the joy

of discovering that 13-linedground squirrels were living intunnels beneath the footballfield at Ranger. On a few occa-sions, students at Rangercaught small animals- thatwere living in and near theirdormitories and brought theminto the biology lab. Fromthese students I obtained myf i rs t giving specimens ofTarantula spiders, scorpions,giant centipedes, and Texashorned lizards. *?

High points at Mercyhurstinclude the day C heryl Patokadiscovered Hydra " in Mercypond with commensal pro-tozoa living on them. MyEcology class found short-

tailed shrews and MeadowvolesUn the small overgrownfield next to Mercy pond. And

this spring I discovered thrdifferent species of liverwo

in the wooded swamp nextSt.? Mark 's . Other br igmoments were? an ^Octobboat; ride with the Ecoloclass at sunset on PresqIsle Bay. breaking through tice on Elk Creek in Februarycollect samples ? withf JoChrzanowski, a pond sam plitrip at sunrise one warm sing morning wi th DebbChuzie an d Jenny Ritter, anlong but colorful ride homfrom |the camping trip Gettysburgh. | | J . These may seem like trthings thatfonlyf a biologwould care abou t, but they aundoubtedly the kinds things that I will rememb

most vividly about my fiyears of teaching..And theare'the kinds of discoverithat will keep me coming bafor more. | | f 1

P l a n s l a u n c h e d for m u s e u m t o harbor Flagship N i a g a r aBy Mary Frances Loncharic

Niagara Place, Inc. is a non-profit corporation formed in

1984 by representatives of thecity of Erie, the PennsylvaniaHistorical and Museum Com-mission, the Erie HistoricalMuseum and the businesscommunity. *. s H

The purpose of th isorganization is to develop abayfront site for the relocationof the Flagship Niagara andthe Erie Historical Museum,together with appropriatecommercial attractions.

Mercyhurst College Presi-dent, Dr. William P. Garvey isPresident of Niagara Place,Inc. i \ i J? & 3

About four years ago it wasdecided that the historicalhome - on West 16th Street,

where the Erie HistoricalMuseum Is located, was notlarge enough. Approximately35 to 40 thousand people visitthe museum each year. *

Dr. Garvey, Chairman of theMuseum Board, wanted themuseum to expand; up to100,000 visitors would makethe museum self sufficient. It.would need a new location.

The Niagara was built in1813 during the building of thePerry battle fleet, for the Battleof Lake Erie. This created anindustry for the area and putErie, Pennsylvania, in thehistory books.

In 1913 the Niagara wasresurrected from a waterygrave in Misery Bay and com-pletely rebuilt. 7§ ?f

For the last 72 years"restoration" £ or patchupshave been done. Nothing has

been done about permanentpreservation, f %Dr. Garvey said, "Moving the

Niagara to thet bayfront will

i \- t if t i l8 . i " * - . " ' • • #

create a museum for the shipas well as Erie history." i

Niagara Place, Inc. recom-

mended the purchase of theLitton Industries property, twoblocks east of State Street.The area can be purchased for
