SGA
Marc Rovito
Dear' Highacres Student,
I am Marc Rovito, President of your
Student Government Association (SGA)
for the 1978-1979 school year.
Each day, I am asked by many people
what the SGA is all about. So, for my first
newsletter I would like to give you a short
summary.
The SGA is composed of myself; Vice
president, Kim Parsons; Secretary,
JoAnne Polzella; Treasurer, Claude
Parnell; and a host of sophomore and
freshman Senators. It has two main
functions. One is to allocate the money it
received from University Park to the
variety of clubs and organizations of our
own campus. The other is that SGA is the
governing body on campus. Anything you
would like to see accomplished on campus,
should therefore be brought to the at
tention of your Student Government
Association. This can be done by attending
the meetings, which are open to all, and all
are welcome.
One of the first activities SGA has un
dertaken is to obtain tickets from
University Park for “All U Day” which
will be held September 30th this year.
During the fifth week of this term, the
SGA will be holding elections for
senatorial positions. There are two
positions open for sophomore senators and
five position openings for freshman
senators. If you are interested in running
for one of these seven positions and need or
want more information on the duties of an
SGA senator, contact myself or any one of
the SGA senators.
There is one last remark I would like to
add, and it is the most important: the SGA
is yours to use, use it to its fullest. Talk to
myself, the other officers, or your student
senators: Gerry Nork, Kenny Dudeck, A 1
Cwalina, Rob Blyler, Robin Troyanoski,
Robyn Kuchera, Jim Lyman, Matt
Marcinek, Tom Reed, and Will Donner.
Respectfully yours,
Marc Rovito, SGA president

FOOLS
by Doug Wright
Dean of FOOLS
Last year was not a very active year for
the FOOLs for different reasons. This year
we would like to change that, and have
more than two or three activities planned
to excite you. We’ve discussed a few
possibilities at our first meeting, but as yet
we have nothing concrete. There will be
signs around campus advertising our next
meeting and everyone is welcome to come
and make FOOLs of themselves. So, if
you’re tired of seeing the same events at
Highacres sit in on our next meeting and
give us your FOOLish ideas!
CHEER LEADING
by Robin Kuchera
This year’s cheer leading tryouts will
prove to be very competitive. Twenty
freshman girls will vie for the eight
positions open on the squad. Tryouts will
be held October 11 in the gym at 6:30 p.m.
The girls will be judged in four areas on
a total of 100 possible points. The areas are
execution of cheers and routines 50 points,
poise and appearance 20 points, pep 20
points, and creativity of individual cheer
20 points.
The girls are under the direction of
Robyn Kuchera, Marla Kleckner, and
Rose. Skrabak. Mrs. Debbie Caccese is the
head coach.
Bible Study
By Terri Wielgorz
The Bible Study Club is a group of
students and professors interested in
learning God’s word and how it pertains to
our own lives. It is a group of people that
want to be together for Christian
Fellowship in order to advance the
Kingdom of God. Anyone is invited to
attend meetings so please come if you are
interested.
There will be signs to let you know when
and where the meetings will be held.
Romans 15:4 “For whatsoever things
were written aforetime were written for
our learning, that we, through patience
and comfort of the Scriptures might have
hope.
Those who boast they have never
made a mistake have never tried anything
new.
Radio dab
by Kenny Dudeck
I am Kenny Dudeck, the President of the
Hazleton Campus radio station, WHCB.
This station broadcasts on 1580 KHZ,
which is hardly known to sophomores and
non-existent to the freshman.
Problems have plagued the station in the
past years, but this year with the help of
the SGA and many interested club
members, the radio station should be a
huge success.
We broadcast at approximately 8.5
wattscarrier current. This low power,
which only allows reception in the near
vicinity of the campus, allows us much
flexibility with the rules and regulations of
the F.C.C.
Also, we are going to be carried in the
Commons and the dining hall by way of
direct phone lines to both of those
buildings.
Our program consists entirely of music,
with the only news being the Highacres
Happenings. This will consist of an
nouncements that pertain to both the
academic and non-academic events oc
curring on the campus.
The music we will play will consist of 50
percent top 40 and 50 percent to the D.J.’s
liking.
We hope you will enjoy our service to you
because remember, WHCB is your radio
station.
Circle K
by Mary Pat Cowan
Sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of
Hazleton, the Circle K Club conducts
activities projects that service National
Health projects, the community of
Hazleton, and our campus. The club offers
an excellent opportunity to go places and
meet new people.
Although Circle K is entitled as a
Business and Economics Club, the
membership is open to any interested and
ambitious student. So come on out and
have a good time, it’s going to be a great
year!
