STUDENT BODY
WELCOMED
The faculty and staff of the
Behrend Campus welcome both
Freshman and Sophomore stu
dents to this institution of learn
ing and wish you success in your
academic endeavors this year.

BEHREND CAMPUS—The Pennsylvania State University
Dean Lane
It is a pleasure for me to wel
come you to the excitement that
going to college certainly is. In
addition, however. I should like
to welcome you to the challenge
of college.
For you, a time now begins in
which your values may suffer
some transformation, and, indeed,
change completely. There is no
magic formula for success in col
lege. I suppose, but if I were ask
ed to give any advice in terms of
how a student could be success
ful in college, I would tell him to
become involved; become involv
ed intellectually, spieritually, and
morally with your fellow students,
faculty and the disciplines they
represent. Communicate; go be
yond the narrow limits of your
own personality: stretch your
self. You'll be amazed at how far
you can really go.
I wish all of you success in the
coining academic year.

Ten New Members Chosen
By Denny Conley
Friday, October 16, 1964, was
election day at Behrend Campus.
The polls were open between the
hours of 9:00 am. and 5:00 pm.
For the ten positions open in the
S.G.A., eighteen students took out
and completed nominating peti
tions.
The candidates were: Toni
O'Connor, Jackie Munger, Cathy
Salamon, Bill Kern, Charles
Swedrock, Cindy Kujan, Sheila
Reinhold, Kathy Rutkowski. Tom
Herman, Bonnie Cass, Norm Bal
mer, Steve Fine, Jon Lee, Jim
Brennan, Roger Johnson, Gale
Richards, Jim Dufala, and Mi
chele Bloxham.
The candidates drew numbers
to determine their positions on
the ballot. This numbering was
also the order in which the can
didates spoke on Tuesday, October
13, 1964, for the S.G.A. candidates'
speeches.
Each candidate spoke on his or
her qualifications, why they
wanted to be a member of S.G.A.,
and what plans they had for the
coming year. These speeches were
delivered in Room 101 of the Sci
ence Building. The audience num
bered around the fifty mark.
Voting took place in the lobby
of the Science Building with the
present S.G.A. members supervis
ing. The names of the candidates
are listed in the prearranged
order on a ballot. Voter turnout
was a little better than the na
tween 400 and 500 persons are
expected to be present.
The program will, in the words
of Dean Benjamin A. Lane, "af
ford parents an opportunity to
get a realistic idea of students'
progress. It is also a wonderful
time to discuss below-grades,
which will be in October 31."
Running concurrently with
Parents' Day will be an exhibit of
contemporary art entitled "Nine
West Virginians." The exhibit, on
loan from the University of West
Virginia, will be on dsplay in the
library.
