Sophomores must decide by Gary Johnson News Editor Decision time. Do you stay here, go to State or to Harrisburg? That's a question all sophomores from mid-February on must face, and answer. An important development, named Sophomore Application to Major (SAM), will determine where fourth semester sophomores will spend their junior and senior years. Students have the option, within the University system, to transftr to University Park, Harrisburg, or stay at Behrend after they declare their major. Luis Mongil, eighth semester management major, chose to remain at Behrend. "I didn't want to go to University Park--it's too big. Here (Behrend) you're not just another face in the crowd," he said of his decision. "I have a deep respect for the faculty at Behrend, and I considered it a good educational Saint Vincent and Behrend team up Health partnership enables students to major in Biology and other fields by Gary Johnson News Editor A partnership formed between Saint Vincent and Penn State- Behrend will allow students to earn a bachelor's degree in biology and become registered medical technologists in just four years of undergtaduate study. "Partherships such as this let education and health care work together to help the communities they serve," Dr. John M. Liffey, provost and dean, said of the new program. "Saint Vincent and Penn State-Behrend want to address the needs, such as that for medical technologists, identified in the Brie area." opportunity," said eighth semester accounting major Jill Swanson. In looking back, Swanson said, "yes, I would do it again." "At Behrend you can get to know people pretty well--you can make a difference," said Mongil. Statistically speaking for the 1992 fall semester, out of 227 students who had majors that required they transfer to University Park, 109 of them opted to change their major and remain at Behrend. For spring 1993, 35 students transferred. The total number of students now enrolled at Behrend is 2924, after starting the year with 3139. Behrend offers 24 baccalaureate degree programs in the humanities, social sciences, business, science, engineering and engineering technology, including several minors and options. The college also offers see "DECIDE" on page 2 The affiliation between Behrend Technology Program after three years of general biology studies at the College. "Partnerships such as this let education and health care work together to help the communities they serve." Dr. John M. Lilley and the Saint Vincent School of Medical Technology permits students to enroll in the health center's twelve-month Medical "Northwestern Pennsylvania, like most of the country, is experiencing a shortage of qualified medical technologists," Dr. Larry Eckroat, associate professor of biology at Behrend and the person in charge of the new program. Ten years ago the field was flooded, "but right now, there are numerous job opportunities." While at the School of Medical Technology, students complete courses in serology. immunology, immunohematologt, bacteriology, mycology, parasitology, urinalysis, clinical chemistry, hematology, coagulation, education, management, and supervision. Clinical rotations are performed at the Clinical Pathology Institute Laboratory, Associated Clinical Laboratories, and the Community Blood Bank of Erie County. After the year of clinical training, students graduate with a Penn State-Behrend bachelor of see "SAINron page 2
