also because of lack of labor, as
well as budget constraints.
Another concern was the use
of Styrofoam in place of regular
dishes, especially when getting
pizza. The suggestion was that
instead of placing only
Styrofoam near the pizza case,
put regular dishes there as well
so students have the option of
what they would like to use.
Also, employees should ask
each customer if they want their
food to go so as not to waste
Styrofoam for those who are
dining in.
You may have noticed the
regular plates near
the Styrofoam
no regular bowls for the ice
cream bar as well as many
others. Apparently since only
plates were discussed, bowls
were not taken | into
consideration as well.
MSC representatives took
down notes throughout the
length of the meeting, while
offering certain explanations.
This looked hopeful that some
of the concerns would not only
be heard, but that changes would
be made. They may have been
listening, but there’s no
assurance of whether or not
there will be change.
After an hour and a half of
deliberation regarding weekend
hours and menu choice,
Millstream representatives
agreed to consider these
changes. Although the salad bar
was open on Saturday, many of
the other suggestions and
requests have not been seen as
of yet.
Comments, concerns and
proposed changes are welcome
at F.A.B. meetings held on the
last Thursday of every month at
2pm and are open to all Mont
Alto students. The next meeting
is scheduled for February 24.

On February 2, the auditorium
in the General Studies building
the music of Tribal Legacy had
people dancing and heads
bobbing.
Tribal legacy creates a distinct
party-music sound by fusing
soca/ calypso, reggae, funk, hip-
hop, rock rhythms, and their own
inimitable Caribbean style.
The band. consists of four to
seven people. The core members
of the band are lead vocalist
Richard Burton from Trinidad,
bass player Adrian Lawrence
from St. Vincent, keyboardist
Owen “Dynomite” Romeo,
from Guyana, and drummer
Gregory Rivero.
Dynomite brought the band
together and for the past ten
years, the band has performed all
over the East Coast, Canada, and
Mexico. Their home is in
Brooklyn, New York.
The band’s influences are Bob
Marley, Third World, Steel
Pulse, and seventiesfunk groups.
Some of the songs they
performed were “Three Little
Birds,” “I Shot the Sheriff,”
“Jammin,” “Could You Be
Loved,” “Stir It up,” “Buffalo
Soldier,” “No woman No Cry,”
and “Hot Hot Hot.”
If you want your party to
have heads bobbin’, fingers
snappin’, and feet dancin’ I would
recommend Tribal Legacy. They
are available for private parties,
clubs, proms, and many more
events. For more information,

On Sunday, April 24, Penn State
Mont Alto’s Lion Ambassadors
will participate in
WalkAmerica, the biggest
fundraiser for the March of
Dimes. Chambersburg is one of
1,100 communities that sponsor
the walk each spring. Since 1970,
WalkAmerica has raised over
$1.5 billion to support research
and programs for the 470,000
premature babies born in the
United States each year.
Last year, the Lion
Ambassadors gained enough
sponsors to earn the Top Youth
Team Award for the
Chambersburg Walk, and they
would like to do that again this
spring. They will be selling
March of Dimes pins in
February to benefit the Blue
Jeans for Babies campaign, and
will be hosting many other
fundraisers throughout the
spring semester to raise money
for their team.
WalkAmerica is just one of
the many activities that Lion
Ambassadors take part in
throughout the year. As an
extension of the Admissions
office on campus, they give
tours to prospective students and
their families, as well as help
with open houses and offer
receptions. They are involved in
Student Government activities,
including Fall Fest and Spring
Fling, and join other Penn State
Lion Ambassadors in attending
conferences at University Park
each semester.
Lion Ambassadors is part of
the Student Alumni Corps and is
the most prestigious organization
within the Penn State system.
Not only is the involvement a lot
of fun, but it looks quite
impressive on a resume.
Membership is open to all
students who are full-time, have
completed at least one full
semester, and have a minimum
cumulative GPA of 2.5.
If you are interested in
applying for Lion Ambassadors,
please pick up an application in
the Admissions Office on the
first floor of Conklin Hall. It’s
not too late to join our
WalkAmerica team!
Please direct any questions to
Christina Green, President of
Mont Alto’s Lion Ambassadors,
at clg227@psu.edu.
