The plan for the expansion
was very innovative in that it
allowed the division to
reclaim over 100 . feet of space
originally used for storage.
"We recognized the need
for extra office space and this
seemed like a logical thing to
do," Dr. Mahar said. "The
maintenance department
came up with a creative
response to the space
problem."
"The only bad thing was

Usually football?,
that we could not have
natural lighting through a
skylight," he added.
The expansion itself will
contain a open work area for
professors in the Humanities
division as well as housing
the divisions slide collection
of over 40,000 slides.
This will allow the current
slide archive room to be
turned into two brand new
offices, as well as converting

According to Dr. Mahar,
the old part-time faculty

instruction between
University Park, Penn State
Harrisburg and other
campuses, in the Penn State
network.

program is student orientated
and so is the theme of the
picture." Crieder is excited
about the photo, he likes that
the photo is all about
students.
"Students arranged the
photo, students are in the
photo, a student took the
photo and now the photo is in
the student newspaper.
Basically, all around students
are involved" said Crieder.
Crieder feels that Hoover
should be recognized for all
she did. He added - that
something like this photo has
been in the making for the
past 2 1/2 years.
Hoover commented that she
couldn't thank everyone
involved in the picture
enough and that the credit
should go to the people in the
photo.
The picture all began in
Hoover's Public Relations
class last semester. Hoover
said her group was stumped
on what to do for their final
PR project and finally decided
to promote the gym. The
photograph was needed to
show all that gym offered.
In the future this photo
might lead to an independent
study for Hoover and Wayne
Schaeffer. The independent
study would include
videotaping activities around
the gym and then set the tape
to music with a narration on
Penn State-Harrisburg.
"With the videotape we are
going to try and capture the
essence of sports activities
here" said Hoover.
Hoover likes the gym and
all that it has to offer. The
gym offers anyone
something to do. Whether it
be aerobics, weight lifting,
raquetball, volleyball or a
quick game of basketball.
