Encourages Student Involvement From: Kate Connell Beginning this Fall Term, the S.G.A, (Student Government Association) takes on anew name and a new office, Although it is now titled the U.S.A, (Undergrad- uate Student Association), The ‘organization itself has not chan- ged in any way. Although they have been work- ing in their respective positions since the end of Spring Term, this term is the first opportunity that most students at P,S,U, Del=~ Co have had to meet with the U. S.A. Executive Council Mouhers. left to right: Kate Connell vice president; Steve Winckelman, president: Mark Steinberg. secretary. (Not shown, Elynn Whilden, treasurer), Executive Council: Steve Winck- elman (Pres.); Kate Connell V.,P.); Mark Steinberg (Sec,); and Elynn Whilden (Treas.). Always Open The new U,S.,A, office is lo- cated in Room ‘A?’ of the Stud=- ent Affairs modular, It is always open, both to those desiring aid, and those wishing to help. The" Board wishes toextenda welcome to all students both new and old, with the added hope that you as a student will get involved in your organization - the U.S.A, This is to not only provide the necessary feedback concerning the current programs, buttoalso provide for an influx of new ideas, as well as to provide the people power necessary to successfully carry out ANY project, Just as the Exec, Councilhasa responsibility to the students it represents, each student in turn has a responsibility to contribute to the U.S.A. | Board Of Trustees Rejects Penn P. L. R. G. Proposal Pennsylvania Public Interest Research Group, a cousin of Ralph Naders’ COMMON CAUSE, is a student movement in Penn- sylvania whose objective is to establish a statewide network of consumer protection offices, These offices shall be maintained by students on a local level who feed problems intothe state board of P.JIR.,G. The state board decides which problems are to be handled locally and which are to be channeled into the professionals in Harrisburg, The local board, elected by the students, will not only serve as a link between students and the state board, but will also mobilize and supervise the campus resources for projects as well as cooperate with other campuses and community groups in his/her capacity. Participating students are responsible for electing a rep- resentative from each Commons wealth campus as well as six ‘from University Park, who in conjunction with other repres- entatives will make up the state board, The state board is re- sponsible for the hiring of the professional staff plus the eval- uation and handling of all pro- jects, These professionals, such as lawyers, engineers, natural and social scientists, will be engaged not only in research investigations, but also in 1obby=- ing and litigation procedures, There is also an administrative executive, hired by the board, who is in charge of all pro- ceedings during breaks. The group petitioned the Board of Trustees at P,S,U, for accep- tance into the University system for funding purposes. Acceptance is necessary for the initiation of the proposed funding mechanism, The petition was received favo- rably by the Educational Policies Committee of the Board of Trustees but was rejected by the Board itself a short time later. If approved, funds would come from contributions of $2 from each student at the start of each term, If a student doesn’t care to back Penn P.I.R.G,. financially, he will have his money refunded upon request, To advance Penn P.IR.G.’s cause, Ralph Nader made a personal appearance at this campus, His talk convinced many students that Penn P.I.R.G,wasa worthwhile cause so that they would sign the petition that was then delivered to the Board of Trustees, However, since the proposed funding mechanism has been rejected for the time being, the infant group is arranging benefit concerts to raise funds, These concerts will be made by promi- nent artists who are donating their time to help Penn P.I.R.G, All problems will be welcome as Penn P.IR,G,’s projects will be made up not only of individual - student problems such as rent in- creases, but of entire community (Continued on Page 4) Modular Units Supply Needed Space ro the P.E. building CLASSROOMS FACULTY OFFICES BOOKSTORE LOUNGE -t Tol 3 clo|E|F|>Z To the main building VENDING = AREA The newest addition to Penn State University, Delaware Coun- ty Campus, the modular buildings located near the third parking lot, are now completed and ready for operation, Nearest the main building is the Student Affairs building which has two of the essentials of Penn State-=food and pinball machines, The third wing of the building contains several offices.
