    Residents of the Parade St ?r^a have been complaining the past few weeks about the; noise comingfrom the Sesler Apartments. These complaints,which began near the end of the 1974-75 academicyear, have increased in number since this termbegan. There have been references to beer blasts andlarge parties that have disturbed the neighbors atnight. What th e Parade St. residents think adds to th eproblem is the late hours to which th ese activities areextended. William G. Sesler,* General Partner ofE.S.C. Realty Company, E. (William) Kennedy,Director of Student Services, and Dean William P.Garvey issued a warning to all Sesler IApartmenttenants regarding this m atter. v %The residents on Parade St. and Briggs Ave. arebringing th is to th e college's attention. Thinking th at

    b y G e r a r d N e C a s t r oit is the irresponsibility of the students that causesthis problem, they propose that this action be dealtwith immediately. \ ifIf a warning is given to tenants and*the problempersists, the offenders will be ousted from theapartment. Th is is an alternative selected by Seslerand agreed upon by the college administration. Thisis not an unreasonable act, the owner thinks, sincethis is the normal policy toward tenants who breakthe law by disturbing the peace. Even though theyare removed from the apartmen ts, this will not affectth eir enrollment at MercyhursUbut it might affecttheir chances for campus housing.?Another problem the college must deal with (aslong as people complain about parties and noise), isthat of the under-age drinker. Since the college is

    responsible under the law for the students, it has toanswer for the illegal drinkers. If the administrationconsciously neglects them, the Mercyhurst name isendangered. '-These problems must be dealt with so th at not onlythe college and th e neighbors ar e pleased, but alsothe Sesler Apartment tenants can live the way theywant to live. Up to this moment, most apartmentdwellers were quite content with the way things wererun, but now things may change. Suggestions such asemploying supervisors for the apartments, have beenbrought up, but this will raise the rent. The onlypossible solution seems to be a reform of thestudents.As it stands, any student or studentsiaccused ofdisturbing the peace will be dealt with accordingly.

    P A R T W A Y SIt was learned this week th at Mercyh urst Collegeand ELBA Inc. have terminated a cooperativeagreement arranged earlier this year. According tothe agreement the two parties were to organize aspecial academic program in the field of insuranceand sales management. | Jg IAccording to Thomas Monaghan, Mercyhurstliaison with ELBA Inc. and th e adm inistrator of thecooperative * program,'the termination of theagreement was the result of a government edictwhich rendered th e program im practical. Monaghanstressed th at the decision to terminate the agreementwas a mutual one. I I "* \ |fMonaghan went on to explain that the originalprogram involving ELBA and Mercyhurst had beenaimed at enrolling a larg e proportion of students wh owould be eligible for Veterans Administrationeducational benefits." Paym ent of such benefits to th eindividual students was dependent on the approval ofthe program by the VA. IIn June, Ith e VA gave its educational approval to(he p rogram. Upon receiving the approval, Mercyhurst enrolled 25 students in th e first six-week courseof the eight-course insurance program. Classes wereheld at Mercyhurst and also in Pittsburgh, g } jlIn July, general legal counsel for the VeteransAdministration passed down a decision that al lcooperative programs between profit-making

    organizations and non-profit organizations would notbe eligible for VA benefits to individual students until,such programs had been in operation for a period oftwo years. In light of th is decision and the fact th at 90per cent of the potential students in the program weredependent on V eteran's benefitsjJELBA and Mercyh urst agreed th at continuing the program without VAhelp would not be practical. | g * *.Although th e agreement between ELBA andMercyhurst had been terminated, th ere was still thematter of the 25 students enrolled in the insurancecourse. Mercyhurst then made the decision to continue the program, on a limited basis, until it decidedwh at its future course of action regarding off-campusprograms would be. r ] 5 ? I. Since mid-August, Monaghan h as been working ona 30-day study of tneFcosts and benefits of the off-campus insurance program. He has also been successful in securing VA approval for the program,since it is now wholly operated by Mercyhurst and notsubject to the July decision for the generaljcounselregarding prof t-making organizations, i mAccording to Monaghan, the new program whichhas come to be known as Insurance and SalesManagement is emerging as an "on-going and vibrantprogram/' The courses on the program are nowbeing taught on Wednesdays and Saturdays for atotal of six and a half hours each week. The secondcourse of the eight-course cycle is now being taugh t.In concluding, Monaghan noted th at th e newprogram is experimental only in the sense that thecourses are being offered in a different format-i.e.,two days per week, six =weeks per course. Thecourses themselves are traditional MercyhurstBusiness Division courses. Monaghan noted th at th edelivery methods being used for the Insurance andSales Management program could bej; adapted to

    other courses.Because of the new delivery system, people whoformerlyfdid not have the time to take courses atMercyhurst, now can take a course in six weeks. Thiswill greatly expand th e number of people th at Mercyh urst College can assist. It will also help Mercyh urstrealize its goal of appealing to a larger variety ofpeople in coming years. 2fe

    C a r o l Q u a r t u c c i o

    Dear Student Tenant, f 5In recent weeks the College has been the unhappyrecipient of numerous complaints from residents ofParade Street Boulevard regarding the excessivenoise of apartm ent parties. Obviously such disregardfor th e righ ts of our neighbors cannot and w ill not betolerated by th e College.W e wish to remind y o u tha t the terms of your leaseplaces y o u under th e disciplinary code of the College.According to this code, students who? violate th ehousing regulations of the College are subject totermination of their housing contacts. The Collegesimply will not h ouse those students who cannot ac tas responsible, mature adultseither in th e CollegeDormitories, the Briggs Avenue Townhouses, orSesler Apartments. t 1Accordingly, our Security Force h as been instructed to issue formal written warnings to apartment residents who disturb the peace. Students whoreceive a second notice are subject to immediatetermination of th eir leases with fi.S.CTRealty.IWe sincerely hope that it will not be necessary toenforce such disciplinary measures? and that allSesler residents will voluntarily respec t th e righ ts oftheir fellow residents and their Parade Street neighbors, v f I %Sincerely,f E.W. Kennedy [ if

    Director of Student Services 4f William G . Sesler, General Par tner v }E.S.C. Realty Company -i >William P . Garvey WI Vice President of Academic Services' arid Deatiof theColleger**' T i Here I am again, collegiate community, to bring toyou via the Mefciadjmy impressions of th e previousletter, my interview with Mr. Kennedy, and comments from various Parad e Street Blvd. residents onthe Sesler pandemonium problem.Because my abode is located in one of the Seslerbuildings, U forcibly 'take the side of Mercyhurststudents, who by verbal majority claim that therestrictions made on them are too stringent. Thoughwith th e possible rebellious attitude of th e students,certain rigid action will take place, such as "thetermination of your apartment lease." Therefore, I

    wouldn't advise students to resist this prohibitionunless they a re sure to be guaranteed off-campushousing.;-'It is apparent to me that there is a definite communication perplexity ^between Parade St. Blvd.residents a n d M r . Sesler. The residents related to m ethat the problem was unbearable during the summ ermonths on Thursday evenings! Yet, the fall termhouses; different residents. Consequently, they (thefall term residents) apparently are the recipients ofthis limitation. For this reason I feel the studentswere judged unreasonably. JIt's unfortunate that Sesler apartments findthem selves back to back with our civilized society.Considering this fact, it is obvious that Mercyhurststudents should act accordingly when late hours doarise. Personally, I feel th ey've done so .

Since Mercyhurst College has as itspurpose the promotion of th e growth and development of th e individual student, It only seems logicalthat more events should b e held o n campus to furtherstudents in every aspect. l r [ *| Maybe this is a question more than a gripe but w h yaren't th ere more events held on campus? Is it lack offunds or lack of student participation? Maybe you orone of th e administration can give me an answer.Everyone on campus seems to have a gripe aboutsomething but no one does anything about it. It'sabout time we clean u p our act and pull th is collegetogether. Since I've been h ere (which is longer thananyone should adm it) th is college h as gone downhill.A ll students d o any more is complain and fall furtheraway from th e close union they had at o n e time.Since th ere ar e so many complaints and gripes, agripe list should b e started.

    Yearbook PleaSeptember 30,1975Dear A dministration, Faculty, and Students:Last year when the school budgetlwas approved,various expenses were feliminated to ; lighten theburden of a tuition increase . Among th ese items wasthe college yearbook. A number of students felt tha tthe tradition of the ^yearbook was one worthupholding and they took it upon themselves toorganize the yearbook without th e financial backingthat had been provided by the school. To do sorequires soliciationof everyonebusinesses, faculty,studentsand the subscription of those wanting abook. A ll interest, ideas, and determination combinedwill not produce a book unless the necessary fundsare there. ' I LThis year's book will be outstanding. The staff isambitious, hard-working, and ready to produce agood book. In 1976, Mercyhurst College will be SOyears old. I believe 50 yea rs of tradition is worthrecording into the mempries for the years to come.Only your pledges an d subscriptions can assur e this.Let's save our yearbook"Seize the op-be * th e only^one tforpoi$unity*"-*-it mayPraeterita.t Sincerely,Cyn th ia Ja rzabEditor-in-Chief1 9 7 6 Praeterita}

Your anonymity onlydemonstrates th at y o u , s i r , "are a first degree cretin.A nd if y o u feel deprived of more important info on orabout our fair institution, I can only apologise andmake room for articles of m ore relevance, as "UnionJukebox Gets Eight N ew Selections." ^Forgive the sarcasm ; my point is this: I am awarefUlly th at my works of late h ave been illegible, and Iapologise. The lettering was very chaotic, and thereduction-for-printing-purposes didn't help mattersany. But the content makes sense only on a higher

    level, and if you are into abstra ct hum or (i.e. MontyPython, National Lampoon, Woody Allen), I think Ican piously pred ict th at you would be "aisling in th erolls'' (the old switcheroo!).If you appreciate cartoons as^ "an effectiveweapon" )zoom! What a metaphor!), remember therole satire plays in making society aware. *Theawareness of these cartoons is realized^more on aconceptual level. If you or any other personage careabout the context of the cartoons, let the Merciadknow, an d I will oblige to translate.And by the by, they do demonstrate the student-administration relationsh ip w e have here. Take thatstatement to bed with you tonight. i.kThis has been a rebuttal of the EmergencyBrainwave System.

    ...After considering both of Sunday's baseball games atFredonia, I find myself confused by th e inconsistency of th eLakers' h itting. How does one really explain a team th at ino n e game fails to produce evenone run, a n d in th e next gamemanages to score eight? !...This Saturday could be th e intrasquad race of th e yearas Women's Varsity Crew take s on a rat h er inexperiencedffesMAen^oat. Thr women app&ar both willmg apd f|adyfor th e race, and I hopethe girls really d o well:TOSwill beth e first intrasquad race of th e year,, but the main concerna n d major question of all crew meiAbers is \ Will the regularseason ever begin?'!...As for picking this year's intramural winner inj; flagfootball, I am inclined to say th at th e Ten Rats will meetRelatively High i n t h e finals. j S ^ JpH...Special thanks to head baseball coach Joe Cook fortaking the time to talk to this;sports writer at so late anhour, an hour when most o f u s ar e ina deep sleep.

    The Mercyhurst Lakerbaseball season finally gotunderway Sunday, September28th, as the Lakers split ladoubleheader with theFredonia State Blue Devils.In the first game, pitcherJoe W illiams was robbed of avictory as his teammatesfailed to deliver a pair ofbadly * needed runs asFredonia State shutout theLakers 1-0. Williams, whowent thefdistance, threw 154pitches only to find himself aloser in the nth inning.Fredonia's Dan Gordonsingled home the game

    winning runj for winning pitcher Jack Van Develde.In the second game, Lakerpitcher Tom Barringermanaged to pick up his firstvictory of the season in a 8-0shut-out off the Blue Devils.Barringer, who fwentf th edistance,* picked up eigh tstrikeouts and walked five.Curt Brooks,; Randy Cooneyand Dan Sienecki smacked inth e Lakers' only earned runs.Head coach Jo e1 Cook feltthat both Williams andBarringer pitched superbgame s. Cook was also pleased

    L A K E R A V E R A G E S

    by th e fact th e infield handledthe" ball 91* times without anerror. ISunday's game was aclassic example of pitch er vs.pitcher and if this is an indication of *what is to come,th ere'll be a lot of tired armso n t h e Laker pitching staff.The La kers' next game willbe Friday , October 3rd, whenthey face Buffalo State in atwin bill scheduled for 1 p.m.The Laker baseball teamwould greatly appreciateyour support Friday afternoon, so come on out andpush this year's team to awinning season.
