Education and
Two should cooperate,
By JUSTIN CATANOSO
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Higher education needs a new look, state Sen. Jeanette
Reibman, D-Northampton, said. And that new look should
come in the form of a cooperative venture with industry.
"Look at all the higher education industry is getting into,"
Reibman said in an interview Saturday. "General Motors is
running a large engineering school. ITT, IBM they're all
running education programs. They're doing the job that
higher education should be doing."
Reibman, who is minority chairwoman of the Senate
Education 'Committee, was on campus this weekend to
participate in Penn State Alumni Day. She conducted a
political advocacy workshop encouraging women to get
involved in politics and explaining how to run for office.
Afterwards, she discussed an issue that has remained one of
her primary concerns as a legislator.
"Higher education is in for some rough sailing," she said,
"(It) is going to have to share its resources."
Reibman, a senator since 1966 and the only woman in
Pennsylvanian history to be elected to the Senate, said many
people in the job market are not adequately prepared for what
she calls "a vocation-oriented society."
"Industry is demanding computer analysts and data
processors. I think higher education should be bridging' that
USG spending investigated
By ANNE CONNERS

The Undergraduate Student Govern
ment Senate last night voted to form a
committee to investigate where the mon
ey came from to place a full-page ad in
the April 1 issue of The Daily Collegian
after executives had told the senate its
allocation of column inches had run out.
"First we were told we had 800 column
inches, then we were told we had none,"
USG senator Ed Dougherty said. "Where
did the money for the ad come from?"
The ad informed the students what
USG had done for them during USG
president Joe Healey's administration.
Bill Cluck, USG president-elect and
sponsor of the bill, said the commitee's
intent would be to investigate how money
was spent during the election.
"The intent of the committee is not . to
look for wrongdoing but to come up with
an objective report on what happened,"
Cluck said. '
The senate also allocated $895 to Hori
zons, the spring festival to be held May 7
through May 10, for various educational
r
the CANBY Cang

and cultural activities
"This thing has the potential to get big
in the next couple of years," Senator
John Bravacos said. "It needs something
to get It off the ground."
Monies will be spent for: repair of the
Earth Ball, Free University films, on art,
music and experimental subjects of in
terest and education and a film on El
Salvador.
Other activities will include: a mime
show, a speech by a cyclist who has
toured China on a bike and a presentation
by the Ice Hockey Club.
USG's department of minority affairs
received $1,295.39 from the senate for its
3rd annual fashion show to be held April
23.
"It (the fashion show) provides a serv
ice that we need to bridge the gap be
tween minority students and non
minority students," Antoine Murray, a
member of the department, said.
The senate also agreed to write a letter
to Joe Paterno, athletic director, 'asking
that the University grant the Penn State

gap and educating those people for them, rather than industry
doing it," she said.
Reibman said she envisions a cooperative university-in
dustry arrangement with central books and supplies buying,
and computer and faculty sharing.
"It's going to be a new look," she said. "While people are
saying education is a dying industry, it's not. One segment is
higher education because industry is taking over that
segment.
Reibman said she spoke with an official at General Motors
who told her that company has "millions of dollars" for
educational programs.
"Colleges may have to do things a little differently," she
said. "They may have to use more work-training programs,
as well as academic programs."
Reibman also said universities or colleges situated in close
proximities could share faculty members for courses with
limited enrollment.
"Sharing would cut costs. It may be too expensive to run a
humanities program with a small group of students, but you
still want to have it. The college down the road may have the
same problem, so you share that faculty person," she said.
"Higher education is going to have to build partnerships
with the business world, with the community and with each
other."
Association inter-varsity status.
"We don't want to play bozo operations
anymore," Joe Battista, president of the
club, said. "We want to upgrade our
schedule.
"We're not asking the athletic depart
ment for a cent," he said. "We're just
asking for NCA inter-varsity status."
Correction
It was incorrectly reported in Friday's
issue of The Daily Collegian that a stu
dent has 30 days to appeal his tax case
before the case is closed. The student has
30 days to appeal after the auditor has
officially closed the case.
It was also reported that Steve Ander
son said University policy states that
assistantships are 50 percent service and
50 percent fellowship. Anderson was an
swering a student's question when he
said some University departments con
sider assistantships that way. However,
GSA does not officially • endorse that
position and members do not necessarily
believe that is University policy.

Brezlinev was met yesterday at tho
Prague airport by Czechoslovak party
chief Gustav Husak, the official media of
both nations reported. The Soviet news
agency Tass in a dispatch filed from here,.
said the two leaders had a "friendlyr
meeting," discussed relations between
their countries and "exchanged views on
international problems."
In recent days the Soviet press has
sharpened its criticism of the Polish.
Communist Party for failing to dea
sternly enough with Solidarity's de
mands and strike threats.
As Brezhnev left Moscow, a commen
tary in the Soviet Communist Party .
newspaper Pravda said "outside reactio
nary forces" were behind a "direct,.
struggle" against socialism in Poland?
Similar words were used in 1968 to justify
the Warsaw Pact military intervention

Dubcek in Czechoslovakia.
