Research - read articles on the
internet. I plan to run the upcom
ing Pittsburgh Marathon so I
looked up some places of Interest
in the downtown Pittsburgh area.
Oh, yeah, and I attempted to
write on one of my assignments
due next week.

extra evening hours.
According to SGA President
Roderick Lee, the SGA was
directly involved with the deci
sion to expand the hours. After
receiving several student com
plaints,Lee raised the issue at a
regularly scheduled SGA meet
ing. “I received an overwhelm
ing response that the hours were
not sufficient,” Lee said. Armed
with student representative
approval, Lee emailed a report
to both Shill and Interim Provost
and Dean Dr. John Leathers. Lee
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions.
Small people always do that, but the really great make
you feel that you too, can become great.

Hours Expanding
also addressed the issue of the
library hours at a Provost’s Staff
Meeting and a meeting of the
Academic Council. According
to Lee, the concept of addition
al hours was well received. The
difficulty was the allocation of
funds to cover costs. “It takes
two people, minimum, to run
the library, preferably three,”
Shill reports. According to Shill,
the added hours puts PSH
among the top three libraries in
the PSU system in open hours.
It’s not a simple comparison
however. “Dickinson Law

I have a paper due Monday after-
Library is open 24 hours a day,
but late admission is by ID card,
there’s no staff,” Shill said. If
calculating open, and staffed,
hours PSH is second behind
University Park, Shill reports.
Lee believes graduate students
will benefit most from the addi
tional evening hours. One added
feature of the new library is
lockable graduate-student study
carols. “Now they can have
access for thesis work,” Lee
said.

As usual, the balancing of career
and school has caused me to be
a “little behind” in doing
research for a paper, spring
break means catch-up time for
me.
