Teachers
in Panama
Cheryl Cohn and Carol
Matter are student teaching in
the Canal Zone (Panama) this
term along with several other
student teachers from the Park.
Carol writes:
“I am almost a teacher! I
have a red marking pen; doesn’t
that qualify me? This wonderful
pen was given to me by Coco
Solo Elementary School to mark
papers officially in red.
“The schools have an
overabundance of supplies and
materials available. My only
complaint is the Social Studies
program for primary grades. The
series they use (when and if they
do) is from 1958! Horrible
textbooks! Their big thing down
here is reading. They just
changed over to Lippincott and
all the teachers are complaining
about getting used to a new
series.
“The kids in my class are
from all over the States. Also,
they’ve traveled a bit if their
parents are in the military.
They’re great resources for a
unit - Children of the World.
“We’ll be thinking of you
“Stateside” people as we swim
in the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans.”
Their address is: P.O. Box

officer; Kathy Donnelly, a student; and 2d
by Fred Prouser
A small group of students and
faculty members held a rap
session sponsored by the Head
Shop on Monday, January 21.
The session was informal and
one of the opening thoughts
expressed was why we are in
college anyhow. Some people
held that they were here to
prepare for a job.
This was countered by Ed
Beck with the fact that the
average person changes careers
five times during their lifetime.
Several students agreed that they
were here solely because they
wanted to have a learning
experience and just the simple
fact to better themselves as
people.
The purpose of college was
kicked around a bit. If college is
primarily to prepare the student
for a job, couldn’t a technical
school do just as well a job in a
shorter period of time and in an
inexpensive way? Those that still
chose to go on to college would
do so because they desired to
further their knowledge, not
necessarily to insure a high
paying job.
The business field was taken
as a particular example in this
case. For one person, the
knowledge gained at a
community college and
subsequent work in the business
world seemed to provide an
adequate background to obtain a
job. When they came back to
school, it seemed a repetition of

Vietnam veterans hospitalized
at the Coatesville Veterans’
Administration Hospital had
their lives brightened Saturday,
January 26, by visits and
entertainment provided by
members of the Chi Gamma lota
(XGI) fraternity from Penn
State’s Capitol Campus.
Approximately 20 members
of the local veterans’
organization delivered more than
2,000 paper back books and
magazines to the hospital which
will help fill many hours for the
patients in the weeks to come.
Cakes, cookies, and donuts
baked by fraternity members’
wives brought a touch of home
to the men, also.
Special entertainment was
provided for the men by Richard
Little, a Hatboro magician
engaged by the local fraternity.

previous work and more
emphasis on theory than on
practical applications.
Mr. Dressier brought up the
concept of in loco parentis, or
the university as parent when
the student is away from home.
The style of housing on campus
is decidedlydifferent from many
schools in that the school
operates both dorms and
individual houses for students.
This distinction brings on
varied problems not dealt with
at many schools. Problems such
as destructive vandalism and
drug abuse were brought up as
examples of the dilemma facing
the administration.
Once the 18 year old rights
bill is passed in its entirety, the
student will be held in account
for all his actions and the
responsibility will be off the
university’s shoulders.
Dr. Eisenstein was concerned
about the lack of involvement
colleges and students have with
the world around them.
The basic issues of the day
are seldom integrated into
college policy or student action.
The consensus of those involved
was that the individual was the
one most likely to get involved
in the world situation on a one
to one basis, with interaction
among fellow students.
Dr. Klein brought up that
Capitol Campus needs some
direct community involvement if
it is to remain a viable force in
the years to come.
