burned as keg law' goes; into effect

by Kelley Moore On Sat. Sept. 13, vandals struck the Mercyhurst Campus. Three light poles and a window in Zurn Hall were broken. Shrubs were pulled from the ground and the area around Briggs Avenue. Apartments were
littered,"

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26,1986

The destruction caused an' estimated $1200 damage, which is being absorbed by all Briggs Ave. and Townhouse residents, since it is believed that it was caused by those attending a party in that area. It wasn't proven that the, vandals are Mercyhurst students; however, E. William Kennedy said he was 'Given information leading him to assume they were Mercyhurst residents.* Meg Fuhrman, a resident of Briggs Apts., believes 'It is not fair that some people who weren't involved have to pay for the damages.'; however, Kennedy argues that, 'It's either a large number of people (meaning all residents of the college) that are affected in a small amount, or a small number of people (Briggs and Townhouse residents), that are affected in a large amount.' Therefore, the residents of Briggs and the Townhouses must pay.

All these incidents have led to a ban on all keg parties in the Townhouse and Apartment buildings, including Sesler Apts. Due to several complaints from neighbors in the Briggs area, all loud music is [prohibited from now on. Kennedy has I given the residents a warning in a letter sent Sept. 18 stating, "The college will press chrages both internally and externally through the criminals justice system," regarding loud music and keg parties. \ Does this mean we are supposed to bring out the koo I-aid and listen to our walk-man for the rest of the year? It sure seems that way. All kegs are banned, no more celebrations, and no loud music. . | There was a notabJe change this past weekend regarding parties. Merill Dever noticed a quieter & more oRlerly campus, with the exception of one large party, which was written up by Phyllis Aiello. Concerningr damages, Dever said one scrapped^television was burned in Garvey Park; however, there were no damages to the buildings or campus property. Dever also termed it a very clean campus as compared to prior weekends. For the people ovei age 21 it is unjust.

Many changes have occured this year at Mercyhurst, not the least of< which is the realignment of the academic division. Before this system began, there were 19 departments! each with a chairperson who was responsible for reporting to the academic dean. But as of the fall of 1986, these 19 departments have been combined into eight divisions, each with its own divisional chairperson. These departments are. Business, chaired by Robert Cisek; Hotel-Restaurant Management, with John Wolper as chair; Education, with Brian McHugh; Performing arts, chaired by Sam Rotman; Social Sciences, Richard Kubiak; Humanities, Ludlow Brown; Natural Sciences and Mathematics. Lewis Lutton; and Human Development, with Jacquelyn Howey. The reasons for the change, as Dean Palmer points out, primarily involve the growing concern over the need to increase efficiency. 'I'm looking forward to the new divisional structure because it will create a more efficient way to approach the academic problems oi this institution.' As designed, the new program allows for each member of a department to report to his departmental director who in turn would report to his divisional chairperson, who is then responsible to the dean. A system similar to this existed at Mercyhurst in the 1970's,

although some of the divisions today are new. According to Dean Palmer, the agenda for the divisional chairs so far this year will include evaluating the new system, discussing a new core curriculum, and debating a switch to a school calendar consisting of three eleven-week terms. "The faculty response is unified in their belief that there is a need to cut down on the number of people who must deal directly with the dean. Mr. Richard Kubiak has a very optimistic outlook on the new structure. The improved efficiency, in his opinion, will greatly im-

prove the^ flow of information. Kubiak says, 'This system will develop a sense oi comradery and companionship within the divisions, which will combine to increase pressure on the administration for the benefit of the school. If it goes as it should, the divisional chairmen will set the academic program, which is as it should be.' Kubiak is 'Looking for the place to really start to explode.' Jacquelyn Howey believes the program will benefit curriculum development. Potential for in teraction of departments will lead to the sharing of resources. ?As Ms. Howey sees it, the purpose of

Ferralli registers 14tlti patent
loudspeakers. Second, and more amazing, his 14th patent is the basis for a Novel Acoustic lens used in an Extracoi poreal Kidney Stone Lithotriptei Ferralli is currently developing this device through a $35,000 research ^grant 1 rom the government. What Ferrelli's complicated new device actually does is non surgically destroy kidney stones. This would mean that people with kidney stones could have them removed without an operation or a lengthy hospital stay. This new invention is so influential that Ferralli was recently invited to present a seminar on his work to the Food and Drug Administration in Washington, DC. Ferralli is currently seeking another government grant due to the fact that he feels his new invention promises to be a major breakthrough in arthritis therapy.

Dr. Michael Ferralli of the Mercyhurst* Science Department received wordtearly this summer that his invention, the Signel SL-100 D e f i n i t i ve Image Loudspeaker, won the 1 ngineering Design Award at the International Consumer Electronics S h o w in C h i c a g o . T h i s loudspeaker system was the product of Ferralli's 13t.h patent. Shortly afterwards this summer Ferralli received news that his 14th patent was approved by the U.S. Patent Office. This new patent lays the groundwork for Ferralii's two latest inventions. 1 irst, this latest patent helped improve Ferralli's already reknown

Ferralli also had two papers published this summer which deal with his work. The first one is entitled, "Ion Beam Induced Film D e p o s i t i o n on M e t a l l i c Substrates," published in The Journal of Material Research. His second paper, "360 Degree Dispersion Frequency Invariant Acoustic Transduction System," will be presented at the 81st Audio Engineering Convention in Anaheim, Calif, this fall.

Treating symptoms; Pay scale proposed ignoring the disease for SAC officers
The Mercyhurst adminstration is again on the warpath against campus drinking. Every year the same kind of senseless destruction and waste are caused by drunken students who cannot control their actions. A 'Every year a stricter policy gets effected by with little result. The underage drinking and destruction of property still continue. The "no keg*' law again will try to curb the abuses. Will it be sucessful? Probably nou ^ Penalties for violations of P.A. Liquor and campus drinking laws suffer from the same limitations that the drinking and driving laws once had before the rise of the national cry of "get tough." Just as the businessman who drinks too much at happy hour and then drives home in a state of intoxication was once seen as acceptable, because "everybody does it", so is the traditional picture of the inebriated college student. Movies like "Animal .House" have glamorized rowdy behavior. I f .With this behavior being seen a* "normal", or even worse "cool* , enforcement of any policy becomes rather inconsequential, at least in the eye of many. If a student was expelled because of such activity, the cry would be "They're in college, "What do you expect them to do?" So, in a sense, you have created a complex "Catch-22" situation and stricter policies from the adminstration just results in more rebellion from the students. How can a policy like this be seriously enforced when beer companies make deliveries on this campus at a seemingly endless pace. You can't stop them from delivering because that's an infringment of trade. They have to ask for identification from the person who's accepting the delivery but it's not to hard to find a 21 year-old to sign the bill. Any person of legal age buying alcohol for minors incidentally, will be held responsible for any mishaps resulting from their intoxication and if the police get involved, they can be charged with "corrupting the morals of a minor." . ; * >MSG represenatives plan to meet with Dr. Garvey and Mr. Kennedy to discuss clarifying or'modifying campus policy. From'the MSG meeting, it seems they are not in favor of discontinuing campus kegpartying. Some steps have to be taken though for the problem seems to be getting out of hand. Has anyone thought about alcohol and drug awareness programs for those, who traditionally have been punished? Why not help? If the adminstration feels so strongly about students drinking how can they justify the inconsistency allowing SAC to cart a busload of students to an adjoining staste that has a lower liquoer age on the pretext of 'dancing." The last time we looked, it was possible to dance in Erie County. Prohibition showed that you couldn't legislate morality or good sense and the Volstead Act was unable to enforce national sobriety; neither will the adminstration be able to impose campus sobriety. Just as Alcoholics Anonymous states that the first step in curing the problem of abuse, be it chemical or alcohol, is admitting that you need help, the students at Mercyhurst who "party- till-they-puke" will have to admit to themselves that their behavior isn't the way to achieve a mature, responsible attitude toward drinking. They, and they alone can do this as part of the maturation process — it cannot be superimposed by any outside authority.

Music notes: new music on WMCY
by Bobbie Gaydos Did you know that the world of modern music has more to offer than Robert Palmer, Cyndi Lauper and Phil Collins? Wake up and smell the coffee, folks! There are a lot of great new artists out there that you simply can't hear on MOST of the radio stations in the area,..and you don't know what you're missing! For instance, SMITHEREENS, a group out of NYC, topped the college charts in August and has managed to maintain its level of popularity even to now. "Especially For You" (Enigma), the band's first album, features 12 beautifully executed tracks including "Blood and Roses", the song that woke the world up to these gentlemen. "The Turgid Miasma Of Existence"... What-does it mean to you? Well, to the CELIBATE RIFLES (What Goes On), it is a milestone in achieving well deserved attention here in America. These five guys have been popular for quite a while in iAustralia — If your curiosity has been even but why should the roos have all the fun? Mate, if you enjoy music slightly aroused, tune in * to with unpredictable melodies and a WMCY to hear what progressive bit of a rough edge "...this is a music is supposed to sound like. knife$" Have you ever wondered what Punk/Progressive/Avant Garde would sound like in Japanese? If so, WELCOME TO DREAMLAND - ANOTHER JAPAN (CELLULOID) is for you! This '*compilation album, mixed for the most part by Fred Frith, is an example of raw energy and pounding force that will leave you with an incredible urge to put sake in your FUBAR.

Many of you sharp-eyed readers of this publication have noticed a change that -we failed,to mention last /week. We now will be "hitting the streets" as we say in journalism on Fridays, by noon, instead of Thursdays as was the case last year. The change of publication date was not our idea but that of our publisher Brown Thompson News. Over the summer, the publishers moved their printing I operations from Union City to Warren, Pa. With change of location, they also changed the times they were able to print the college newspapers. The only time available resulted in a Friday distribution time. We hope that this change won't cause anyone an inconvience. Everybody, dull and sharp eyed readers alike, undoubtedly noticed the mistake on page 2 of our first issue. In the place of the photo of the new Mercy Terrace Apartments, a picture of the library was run. No, they aren't going to start putting senior citizens in the library, the problem arose when we were forced to ok the photo, over the phone, sight unseen.

We threw the ball effectively." DeMeo also pointed out that Haski, 'Rostek and Mark Gibbon had a very good day for the offense, while Gorring had his best game yet. On the defensive side DeMeo singled out Latimer and Scott Kelly. In the Lakers upcoming game against tough Villanova, DeMeo feels the team will have to be prepared for "one heck of a game".
