Claridge also approved the
separate designation between
student operation and technician.
Claridge said, "I don't believe
so", when questioned as to
whether or not there would be any
problems involved if a qualified
student wants to change from the

In discussing the origins of the
problem Claridge stated, "Most
of the difficulties stem from an
absence of a supervisor for the
department. As a result there
have been some difficulties in
communication between this
office and the students, some
misunderstandings on both
sides."
Claridge expressed an ad

manner in which the students
presented their problems and
noted, "It's been good to have

myself that everything will work

announced that the Office of
Student Affairs has approved the
proposals from the Joint

To insure the most efficient
method of carrying out these
proposals, several stipulations
concerning student conduct will
be put into effect. It is stated that

sheet will be placed on each floor
which must be used when having
a visitor. The sign-in sheet is to

like it here, and I'd like to see
Behrend become one of the better
places to go."
Sue Lawrie (1 - LA - Erie)
thinks that Behrend needs more
involvement, and S.G.A. is her
way of becoming involved. "I'm
interested in the projects that
S.G.A plans to undertake this
year, and I would enjoy working
m them very much."
Pamela Moore (1 - LA - Shef

our dorm and said that if nobody
ran there wouldn't be anything to
do on Behrend Campus...so -I
decided to run.
Lauren O'Leary (1-LA-New
Castle) sees the need for greater
interaction between resident
students and commuters as one of
Behrend's greatest problems.
She would work for more ac
tivities which would unite both
groups. Lauren would also push
for more classes in required
subjects and a better program for
registration."
Doug Russel (1 - Bio. - Erie)
feels that S.G.A. is the way for
him to do something for Behrend
and his fellow students.- Doug
would like to see improvements in
school spirit and the subject
matter taught in classes. .
Rick Saeger (4 - Engin. -
Bethlehem) states that : "I would
like to run for S.G.A. represen
tative because I think there are
things at Behrend that need to be
changed, and I see the S.G.A. as a
means for changing them."
Randy Seidman. (1 - Bus. Ed. -
Philadelphia ) is running for
S.GA. to become involved. "I
think that everyone should be
involved and get alive with
everything. A lot of people
walking around don't give a
damn. .As a representative I think
I would do a good job."
Barbara Slingland (4 - Bus. -
Middletown) "I would like to be a
S.G.A. rep. because I feel
Behrend campus is a good
campus, but I'd like to help make
it better. I'd like to get more
students interested as you know
not much of the student body is
represented at the S.G.A.
meetings. I hear a lot of people
complaining and nothing being
done. Well, I'd like to help take
care of these gripes".
Mark Bodycombe, Dave Wolfe,
and Chris Veith are also running,
but were unavailable for com
ment.
