From beer to . . . beer? "It's simple,"
says Corey 'Coach' Metz, the mastermind
behind "Can-paign 2000."
When Coach's roommate Tony, aka
Tank, came home and told him to save the
tabs from aluminim cans, Coach wanted
to know why. Tank explained that the
Bethlehem-Lukens Steel Mill was collect

liant idea.
Coach thought that since the tabs were
being saved for a good cause, why not go
one step further and recycle the cans the
tabs came from? The aluminum cans
could then be sold and the participants
rewarded with a nice prize.

Hidden among the visible improve
ments on campus is a change which will
be felt rather than seen. The first of two
new energy-efficient boilers to be
installed in the PSH heat plant went on

of Deceased Alumnus
Members of the PSH community may
remember Kevin Langsdale, a recent
graduate of the electrical engineering pro
gram. A week after graduation, Kevin
landed his dream job as hardware design
engineer with Tollgrade in Pittsburgh.
Suddenly, on June 25, Kevin, 26, suffered

Pittsburgh to visit his family.
Paula says that Brandon looks just

born, Brandon had hernia surgery and,
one month later, underwent neurosurgery.
Doctors found that Brandon's skull had
