Editorially
PERHAPS YOU have noticed
that its been 21 days since the last
Collegian. The main reason for
the delay has been lack of funds
and therefore, we have instituted
many changes. The Collegian will
be published twice monthly,
rather than weekly. I Eugene
Martin Grygo have assumed
power as Editor in Chief (thus
qualifying for the college work
study program). Joe Englert
being the gracious and unselfish
person we all know and love, has
stepped down to assistant Editor
(a non-paying position). And
some of the staff members have
gone back to praying.
As editor I will lead my
illustrious staff towards heights
of journalism never before at
tained on a branch campus. Also,
if it isn't too much too ask,
donations are tax deductible.
Remember, too that the
Collegian solicits classified ads at
a low, low rate of 25 cents per 2
column inch ad.
Here's a mind bender:
Question: How many Behrend
students attended the Snowflake
Ball at the Erie Hilton? Answer:
50 (give or take a few) students
nut of an approximate 1,700.
Interesting, huh? Another fine
example of the dull-minded,
boring folk that drift around
campus. Right. students who are
Not
Transmitting
Dear Editor:
I am the president of WBCR,
Behrend's non-existent radio
station._There are many reasons
why our carrier current station is
not transmitting to all three
dorms. The two basic reasons are
- limited funds to improve upon
the mess you might call equip
ment: and the apathetic attitude
of our members - due to the
equipment problems_
I am optimistic. With your
support, patience and a lot of
good luck - WBCR. can get its act
together by or before the Spring
Term. Hopefully soon - you will
hear us in all three dorms
Lawrence, Perry and Niagara;
and in Dobbins Dining Hall.
Remember - we are 560 AM and
will be airing every evening from
4-11 p.m. We hope the coor
dinators will put our extension
:;is in the magic phones.
We need support and interest to
get our station going again. Stop
talking about how lousy the
station is and help make it the
best.
Thank you.

Take a look at my nation
It's really starting to rot
Not much of a country
But it used to be a lot

But there's not a lot I can do
Could we have capitalists for

Students interested in on
campus housing at University
Park for Fall, 1980; can pick-up
their contracts in the records'
office. The contracts must be
turned in with a $45.00 deposit
only on February Ist. They are
accepted on a first come, first
serve basis. Mr. Richard
Sosnowski will be accepting them
from 8-12 noon in the lobby of the
Otto Behrend Science Building
and from 1-5 p.m. in the finance
office located in the Main
Building. Because all Com
monwealth campuses are
competing for the housing, it is
strongly recommended that
students get them in as early as
possible: (8 a.m., February Ist).
Seconds can make a difference!

BEHREND COLLEGIAN
No Mail For The
Wolfloy
Sometimes in a college
student's life there is little to look
forward to_ A warm shower
(seldom ever accomplished in the
primitive dorm sprinkler jobs
called showers) a good woman (I
heard the - price has gone up in
Erie) or man (one that likes you
for your astute mind and deviant
personality, not just for your
mom's cooking, and for the
security of having a prom date
and a companion every Friday
and Saturday night). In every
student's life there is a little
gleam, a shining light, a holy
grail. It's called mail. Every day
hundreds of sweating Behrend
dormites run to their little hole in
the wall, their combination
Enough
No More
Editors Note: The following is to
be sung to the tune, "Enough
is Enough - No More Tears"
sung by Donna Summer and
Barbra Streisand):
It's stupid, it's annoying, disco
is boring me to tears, after all
these years . . .
No meaning, No value, No
• substance, No sign of
changing itself, it doesn't
stand a chance.
I always dreamed I'd find the
perfect disco song, but it
turned out to be like every
other tune I •knew, I knew
Annoying, Boring, there's
nothing left for me to hear.
There's only one thing left to
do . . . ...
Enough is Enough!
If you've had enough don't put
up with the stuff don't you,do
it,
If a discoid wants his music
played say you'd rather kill,
yes say you'd rather kill, you
can do it.
Tell him just to get out, nothing
left to sing about. Pack up his
disco dancing shoes and show
him out! Just look him in his
gold chains and simply shout!
Enough is Enough! I can't
listen to it any longer. Enough
is Enough!
It's hurting my ears so badly.
If a disco album almost drove
you crazy; break it into one
million pieces..
If your patience is gone, don't
think twice so watch that
discoids-album, don't be-nice!
Tell those disco
,peoples
Italian wolves, me and my
brother Romulus. I'm Remus the
one you never hear about. Well,
anyway, I never get any mail.
You see my parents only write in
wolf with a heavy Italian dialect
and they can't communicate too
well with me. At least you'd think
American Express would write to
me, to do a commercial. You
know, "Remember me? I'm
Romulus' twin brother, Remus."
Then some noise goes, crrr, crrr
and I hold the - little card up and
smile.-But no mail, not even from
American Express.
For awhile I was so jealous of
everybody because I never got
any mail. So I got this great idea.
I figured, if no one was going to
send me any mail I would send
myself mail. I've written to all
the good magazines, "Outdoor
Life," "American Wolfe," but
none of. these magazines has
taken me seriously. How .can
help it if I only have one name,
is Enough
Disco
their music off, say it clearly,
'spell it out:
Enough is Enough! I can't
listen to it any longer. Enough
is Enough!
Please stop, the music, simply
stop it ...
I dreamed I'd always find the
perfect disco man, but he
wore more hairspray than
any in the land
I've got to be smart, disco is
tearing me apart.

ReMus? And another thing, they
only have house numbers and
apartment numbers but they
don't have a slot for den number.
(Another thing, who is this guy
Bill Melater? His name is on
every card for those prescrip
tions. He must own a lot of
magazines or something).. So I'm
getting really desperate. Will
somebody send me some mail?
- Please, I'm not picky, you can
send me a little letter saying,
"Hello, how are you?" or you can
even send me an old birthday
card you don't read anymore. It
would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
