I hope people don’t construe
Monday Morning’s incident as
reflecting the attitudes of the
entire student body.
I’ll finally bow down and admit
that the Erie weather is getting to
me.
For those of you who didn’t
recognize me, or question me, no,
my mommy didn’t make me
c have off my beard.
To Phil Hood. ..BLEEP
To the guys in my EG class. .
.no,, I’m not .getting married this
Sunday. Quit. spreading rumors,
please?
Wouldn’t a 7:15 - 8:30 breakfast
make a lot more sense than the
present time?
Don't go shopping with a
woman.

A group of students, faculty, and staff members met on February
2 to organize a campus committee on Human Sexuality. Tim
Muzzio was elected as chairman. The committee is already
planning to offer a non-credit, coed lecture-discussion series on
Topics in Human Sexuality. The series will be offered during
Spring Term. “Topics” is closely patterned after the program
which has enrolled over 5000 students at Yale, Mt. Holyoke, and
several other New England Colleges. Several more students are
m'eeded to help plan and publicize the course. If you are interested
in joining this committee, contact Tim Muzzio, Crystal Angevine,
Terry Loftus, Mike Marsh, or Miss Carroll.
The second class of the Draft Counselling course will take place
this Sunday, February 7, in the Seminar Room,from 1:00 p.m. to
5:00 p.m. The course is open to all, even if you did not attend the
first class. If you ordered a handbook, you can pick it up at the
class.
The Behrend Bookstore would like to express its appreciation of
the quick action taken by students (John Miller, Jeff Selman, Pete
Kwiatek, Jim Raffetto, John Venturella, Karen Maker, Tom
Bruner) when the store ceiling caved-in due to water leakage
Sunday night.
A special thanks to Behrend’s student marshalls Karen Maker
and Tom Bruner who directed salvage and clean-up operations on
authority of Sgt. Charles D. Skidmore, Pinkerton’s, Inc.

Student Affairs
Active Committee
What is the Student Affairs
Committee? What does it do?
Does anybody care: Should
anybody? When the first two
questions are answered, the last
two should answer themselves.
The Student Affairs Committee
may well be one of the most
misunderstood organizations in
the Penn State system. This is
due mainly to the lack of in
formation surrounding the
committee. At the Behrend
Campus, the membership of the
Committee is three faculty, three
students, and the Dean of Student
Affairs. The three faculty
members are appointed by the
Director, and one serves as
Chairman of the Committee.
They are Mr. Tucker (chair
man), Mr. Monahan (who has
been named secretary of the
committee), and Mr. Lauffer.
The three students are Dave Carr
(ex-officio due to his office as
SGA President), Rich Schwartz
(elected as _ the representative
from SGA), and Doug Brower
(elected at large as the student
body representative). Dean Lane
is ex-officio, non-voting due to his
role as Dean of Student Affairs.
' These members meet an
average of once every two weeks,
and are to concern themselves
with the broad area of “student
THENITTANYCUB
life” on campus, particularly
with “matters having to do with
student welfare,' student ac
tivities, student conduct, and
student morale.” In addition to
these general functions, the
Committee has certain specific
responsibilities. One would
concern “implementing Senate
policies and relating Senate
policies to the requirements of
the local area.” This would in
clude such items as Rule Z-13,
governing residence hall
visitation. Another specific
function would be related to the
handling of disciplinary cases:
(1) as a court of original
jurisdiction when chosen by the
student; and (2) as an appeals
body of decisions from the
student court. Appeals from
disciplinary cases arising from
the Student Affairs Committee
shall be referred to the
University Senate Committee on
Appeals. Also, the Committee
shall “lend, whatever assistance
and advice the Dean of Student
Affairs, may require in the in
terest of making accurate and
equitable judgments on how
student aid funds are to be
assigned.”
Last term, the Committee has
met twice, once formally and
once informally. Included for its
consideration may be such topics
as visitation, suggestions as to
fahulty advisor selection by
student organizations, and a re
evaluation of the committee’s .
functions and responsibilities. In
the guidelines it states, “The
Committee may recommend to
the Director that additional
responsibiiities.be assigned to it,
or the Director may assign it
additional duties and respon
sibilities as he sees fit.”
Dean Lane has labeled the
Committee an “intermediary
step” to the Office of Student
Affairs and the Director. The
misunderstanding arises from
the committee’s name and its
faulty association with the Office
of Student Affairs. The function
and the importance of the
Committee will be greatly en
chanced when this is realized.

ESP Explored
The bronze skinned, gaily
dressed gypsy woman slowly
seats herself in front of a
prophetic crystal ball, waves her
hands through the air and begins
to chant the incantations which
will bring visions of future events
into her ball for interpretation.
This scene is an old, romantic,
though not very realistic one
according to Mr. Jack London,
famed expert on psychic
phenomena.
Mr. London will appear in the
RUB Lecture Hall on Tuesday,
Februrary 9 at 8:00 p.m. to ex
plore the ESP scene, the
problems of differentiating
between the true psychic and the
abundant fraudulent one, and the
popularity and possibilities of the
world of astrology. Psychic
vision, telephthy, clairvoyancy,
black and white magic, and
woman’s intuition are a few of his
favorite ESP topics.
Mr. London has appeared on
the Johnny Carson, Mike
Douglas, and Merv Griffin shows,
The Today Show, and has
authored numerous magazine
articles and a book entitled In
stant Astrology.
