Ambassador Service Starts
To Promote 4-Year Programs
by Jeffery Holland
Staff Writer
Mr. Kenneth Goetz,
Administrative Assistant in
Academic Affairs, will act as
Behrend’s ambassador to the
other PSU commonwealth and
community campuses to attract
students in their Junior and
Senior years to take advantage of
Behrend’s new status as Behrend
College of the Pennsylvania State
University. Working with Mr.
Goetz will be Mr. John Claridge,
Assistant Director for Academic-
Affairs, several faculty mem
bers, and various upper class
students.
Goetz’s first mission was to
Butler County Community
College in Butler, Pa. With him
was senior Liberal Arts and
Science major, Michael Meyer, of
Erie. Goetz presented to twenty
five interested juniors and seniors
there a variety of slides
depicting the facilities and life
style at Behrend College, as well
as talks and discussions on the
part of both Goetz and Meyer.
The response, Goetz later
reported, was enthusiastic.
This program was attempted in
1971, but the response then was
not heavy. Little was known about
Behrend then, the four year
programs were just in their
development, stages, explained
Goetz, but this has changed.
Behrend is now well known in all
parts of the University, and is
becoming very popular. The
projection for the number of
transfer students to Behrend in
the next couple of years is in the
several hundreds, and even this is
expected to be exceeded.
Mr. Goetz is enthusiastic about
the program. He feels that
Behrend College has a lot to offer
as an alternative to the massive
impersonality of the main
campus. By next year, several

new four-year programs are
expected to be implemented,
such as Pre-Med, English,
Psychology, Sociology, American
Studies, as well as the present
Science, General Arts and
Science, and Math programs.
Also, additions to the ad
ministration staff will be a new
academic dean, and several new
division heads, in addition to
twelve new faculty members. „
According to the Academic
Policy Plan of the Pennsylvania
State University, July, 1972, “the
development of four-year
programs at Behrend should
focus on a limited number of
broadbased, undergraduated
majors that permit reasonable
flexibility at the upper-division
level and which simultaneously
permit effective transfer of
students among the campuses
and from the community
colleges. Behrend’s potential
upper-division capacity will be
assessed carefully and developed
in accord with the University’s
total upper-division com
mitment.” This is phrased, ex
plained Mr. Goetz, to give the
administration maximum liberty
in the planning and execution of
Behrend’s future as a four-year
institution.

fortune by competing in a
grueling marathon dance contest.
The marathon turns the par
ticipants into automatons who
'dance continuously and push
themselves beyond human en
durance. This is especially true in
the “dog race” where the con
testants are strapped together as
they run around the dance floor..
As the competition continues, the
characters grow more grotesque
and despondent as their strength
and hope fades away. Tragic
consequences result from the
competition.
“They Shoot Horses, Don’t
They” is directed by Sydney
Pollack and stars Jane Fonda and
Gig Young. Fonda and Young won
awards from the New York Film
