Equal rights: then and now
The most important document in American history is being celebrated
in "The Fight for Equal Rights: Women in 1787 and 1987," as part of the
Bicentennial Series at Behrend. Dr. Colleen Kelley, researcher of constitu
tional guaranteed free speech, and faculty member of Behrend, will be the
featured speaker on March 19th. Dr. Kelley received a Ph.D. in Com
munication and Rhetoric from the University of Oregon, and is a practic
ing feminist rhetorician. The speech will focus on women's concern for
equal rights during the last two centuries.
When the Constitution was established in 1787, the phrase "We the
people" generally meant white men who owned property. Women and
minorities were usually excluded from the interpreted meaning of this
document. Dr. Kelley suggests the "exclusion" in the Constitution has to
be interpreted according to "the spirit of the time to reflect historical and
social progress."
&fore the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, no woman was
permitted to vote legally in the United States. This "right" was considered
to have been "given" reluctantly to women, in order that they "defer at
tention from what women have wanted and never received since 1787:
constitutionally guaranteed and protected equal rights," said Dr. Kelley.
In actuality, though, it is the useage of our legal court system that is
given the final say in "constitutional interpretations." The laws created .
by American people are applied through the Supreme Court for
understanding the documental meaning. Therefore, when current
guidelines are too vague to ensure equal rights, it's time to make changes
in legislation,
"The Constitution was designed to be a universal document," and it
has, in fact, "stood the test of time," said Dr. Colleen Kelley. According
ly, the challenges of 1987 and beyond are to support the notion that "All
people regardless of sex, skin color, or financial holdings are equal under
the law," Dr. Kelley declared.
The Fight For Equal Rights will be held in the Reed Lecture Hall at
noon. Admission is free and everyone is welcome to attend.
Summer session registration
by Sherry Kanzius
Collegian Staff Writer
Students interested in picking up
some extra classes over the sum
mer, to graduate early, or to boost
their G.P.A. should plan on
registering for the classes available
at Behrend this summer. Man
Trenkle, Admissions Assistant for
Academic Affairs, coordinates the
summer sessions as one of her
many responsibilities.
This year most courses meet two
times a day; usually in the morning
or evening. Few classes are offered
in the afternoon so anyone who
works or likes to go to the beach
can fit classes into their busy sum
mer schedule. Trenkle stated that
there's "a nice selection of courses
Buyer skills seminar
University Relations--Area
buyers can increase their bartering
and profit-making skills by par
ticipating in "Purchasing Basics
for Buyers," a two-day workshop
sponsored by the Penn State-
Behrend Division of Continuing
Education.
The workshop, designed to
develop and improve a buyer's
understanding and skill in negotia
tions and value analysis, will be
held March 26-27 from 9:00 am un
til 4:30 pm. at the Holiday Inn
South, 1-90 and Rt. 97.
Dr. Kenneth Killen, C.P.M., an
associate professor of business ad
ministration at Cuyahoga Com
munity College, will lead the
workshop, which will feature
topics like "Improving Profits:
Establishing Purchasing as a
Profit-Making Center" and
"Profit Improvement through Bet
ter Buyer-Seller Negotiations."
Killen's background, a blend of
practical business experience and
academic expertise, makes him an
ideal leader for Behrend's buying
power workshop. Before beginning
his teaching career, Killen worked

who register, she said, do so
because they're interested in taking
classes they are unable to take dur-
ing the fall or spring semesters, or
because students may change their

Although most Engineering
students still transfer to University

numbers are expected to grow. The

Choir sacrifices
break for tour
Some people sacrificed chocolate for Lent, others gave up drinking
alcohol. The Penn-State Behrend Concert Choir sacrificed their Spring
Break to represent Behrend on a ten-concert tour across the states of New
York and Massachusetts.
David Stuntz, Behrend music department director, Marjorie Podolsky,
instructor of English and choir pianist and the 40 member choir left
Behrend at 7 a.m. Wednesday, March 4 via Blue Bird Bus.
The rust stop of the tour was Rochester, New York where the choir per
formed their 19-song program in two settings. They stayed in Rochester
for the night and traveled to Syracuse on Thursday, where they performed
two concerts, one of which was at SUNYThe Behrend vocalists found
themselves in Boston on Saturday and many took the opportunity to
sightsee. "Boston Harbor was beautiful," said Sean Weaver, a
sophomore baritone. Probably the most popular sight was the Bullfinch
Pub, which is famous for its "Cheers" bar.
The last day of the tour featured a concert in Marlborough, Mass., and
the choir left at 1:30 p.m. for a ten-hour bus ride back to Behrend.
"The tour brought the ensemble together which further enhanced the
performances," said Stuntz. "The results of the tour are a tighter ggoup,
one that feels and reacts together."
Stuntz came to Behrend in 1982 and as late as Spring of 1983 the choir
consisted of only 17 members. "The choir's growth in discipline and
musicianship has been tremendous in the past two years," said Stuntz.
Many members were pleased with the tour. Kathy Urbaniak, a second
year member said, "It was a lot of fun along with a lot of work. The end
result was worth it."
"I had a great time on the tour, especially in Boston," said Heather
Tafel, a freshman at Behrend.
The choir performed ten concerts in'six cities with a total attendance of
nearly 1,000.
