—The Daily Collegian Monday, September 10, 1973 Colloquy goes acadernic By STEVE OSTROSKY Collegian Staff Writer "We want to not only entertain the students, but to inform them." That is the purpose of the new Colloquy Speaker-Workshop Committee, according to Colloquy President Jerry Miller. The new Colloquy was formed because it was decided one organization should do most of the academic programing on campus, Miller said. The organization is expected to have input from the Graduate Student Association, the University Union Board, the Free University and old Colloquy members,' all of which previously held programs on their own. The new Colloquy is very different frtim the old Colloquy, Miller said. "Colloquy used to be a sort of spring festival, held for a four-day weekend, consisting of speakers . and workshops," he said. Now Colloquy programs will be held all year long, Miller added.

Colloquy no longer will bring in concerts or other . kinds of popular entertainment, Miller said. Other groups will be responsible for this since Colloquy will handle • only academic programs, he noted. Colloquy will not, be charging admission to its programs this year, as it has in the past, Miller said. Instead, Colloquy .will receive, money from Associated Student Activities. This year's programs• are not as large as the old Colloquy programs were, Miller noted. The programs, which will be held in Schwab and the Hub Ballroom, are geared for smaller audiences, Miller said. "I'm quite confident our programs of this nature can bring in about 1,000 people," he said. Miller said funds are limited, but "we can provide some interesting programs all year round." Colloquy will concentrate on bringing in speakers with different interests and varied backgrounds, Miller siad. Department of Community Affairs Aug. 6 withdrew 'its offer to subsidize a pedestrian mall on S. Allen Street between College and BeAver avenues. To build a mall there, the mall committee now must either convince the property owners along S. Allen to accept the original design or convince the Department of Community Affairs to subsidize a mall which includes a one-way street, according to Mall Committee Chairman Guy Kresge. The Department had Stop in now 011/8 e puff and a meow. To State College's answer to the Neighborhood Bar SO • • This week and next, several science fiction writers will be featured as Colloquy's first program. Hugo award winner John Brunner will speak on the "Future of the Environment" 13 p.m. Wednesday in Schwab. Gordo R. Dixon, Theodore Sturgeon and Frederick Pohl will speak on "Issues of the Future" 8 p.m. Thursday in the HUB Ballroom. Jerry Pournelle and Roger Zelazny will debate on the "Future of Science Fiction" 8 p.m. Sept. 17 in Schwab. Other topics planned include a consumer interest program scheduled for the middle of October, Miller noted. Miller said Colloquy is trying to get Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner Herbert Denenberg, U.S. Senator Richard Schweiker, R-Pa., and Bill Buckley for future programs. Colloquy also is trying to contact U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., he added, "but the last time we tried to get him, his secretary asked us if the spring of two years later would be all right." merchants promised an $llO,OOO grant to pay 50 per cent of the building costs. The rest of the cost was to :be split between the borough and the property owners. The design approved by the Department called for a park like atmosphere with no traffic other than emergency vehicles. But the property owners said they felt the mall would hurt their - business and refused to put up the money. In an effort to reach a compromise, the mall committee revised the design to allow for a 20-foot parkway with one-way traffic. This design did not meet the Department's approval. Kresge said he is disappointed with State College consumers for not voicing approval of the mall. "Property 'owners will do what they, think the customers want," he said. "If enough people make it known that they want a mall, we have a chance of getting the property owners' support." illegal parking continue Thefts, Students violate bicycle rules By BARB WHITE Collegian Staff Writer Violations of University and State College bicycle regulations during the past month have ranged from theft to parking violations. The Department of University Safety Aug. 4 apprehended University . two of Indiana students suspected of cutting seven bicycle chains outside Shunk. The students did not have time to take the bicycles as they fled, -but they were arrested Aug. 20, after Safety , officers traced 'their pick-up truck license number.

The Department University Safety can issue $1 fines for non-moving violations on campus and $5 fines for moving violations and failure to license a bicycle. To legally ride a bicycle on campus or downtown it must be licensed. State College New faculty hears address By ANDY ISAACS Collegian Staff Writer "A University the size of Penn State develops its own characteristics. It also develops its own characters, by the way." University Provost. Russell E. Lax''son was addressing an orientation meeting for new faculty members Friday, in an effort to give them a glimpse of what their new jobs will be like. "I wish to emphasize that faculty assigned to teach will be evaluated principally for their teaching and advising," he said, suggesting that for many University faculty members, research need not be a primary concern. But, he said, faculty members are expected to become involved in public service in their own fields of expertise. Faculty also may- take part-time positions as consultants for government and• industry as long as they do so within guidelines published in the Academic Policy Statement and with the full knowledge, of their department heads, he said. While Penn State is organized conventionally into colleges. and departments, Larson reminded his listeners that "many of society's problems do not fit neatly into this kind of organization." He suggested the new faculty look into centers and research programs that cut across college lines. Larson said a full-time faculty member is expected to spend approximately 40 hours each week on academic work. Remarking, "we have no time clock," he noted that a WEST HALLS RESIDENCE ASSOCIATION Fall Term 1973 Movie List: Sept. 13-16, 1973 Sept. 20-23 Sept. 27-30 Oct. 4-7 Oct. 11-14 Oct. 18-21 Oct. 25-28 Nov. 1-4 . .

The license expires April 30 and must be renewed each of year. The license is kept On file either at the Department of Safety or Borough Police Department. A license tag is attached to the frame .of the bicycle. The license contains the name, date of birth and address of the bicycle owner, and a description of the survey last fall showed faculty averaged 50.6 hours per week on academic pursuits by their, own choice. His remark drew a chuckle from the audience. Last fall the Pennsylvania General Assembly demanded to know the hours of full-time faculty members before appropriating funds to the University. Larson also said Penn State's faulty tenure policy currently is under review. At present, he said, an instructor normally works for the University for a maximum of seven years before receiving tenure. Individual college deans may grant some time toward tenure here for time spent at other institutions, he said. Ernest L. Bergman, University Faculty Senate Chairman, told the new faculty members to "become involved" in local government. "You won't take money, but we can have a better place to live," he said. Bergman called State College a "unique area" because "we have only four different sewer authorities." "If "you own a place," he continued,"you pay about six different taxes," including the occupation tax which "puts all professors in the same boat." "I understand that tax' stood up in court," he said. "I'm sure it wasn't Judge Sirica that ruled on it." Bergman recommended tenants with apartment problems go to one of the local code enforcement agencies. "They will take care of you," he said. "That's the best thing working around here besides the liquor stores." Sex Madness .

The bicycle must be in safe operable condition and have a bell or horn to be licensed by either the State College Police or the Department of Safety. The Department of Safety also requires a rear tail light or reflector and a headlight on the bicycle. rNittany Grotto Meeting 7:30 Wednesday, Sept. 12 273 Willard Slide Show r—•...ETrnMi..m.m...1r..1 Phyrst Mon.
