Parvensky,
By MARCY MERMEL
Collegian Staff Writer
. .
Emil Parvensky (9th-finance) and Jim McJunkin
(9th-administration of justice) have announced their
candidacy for Undergraduate Student Government
president and vice president.
Because issues such as the calendar conversion and
the selection of a new University president will affect
future and current students at the University, during
the next year, USG must "put in our input so what goes
on now is what students•really need," Parvensky said.
Parvensky, a USG town senator and member of the
Calendar Conversion Council communications commit
tee, said one student on the Calendar Conversion Coun
cil is not enough input to the calendar conversion.
If elected, Parvensky said he would work to have
• members of each college student council involved in the
. conversion processes of that council's college. These
representatives would "make sure the changes that are
made are ones that do not hurt the students," he said.
Parvensky said USG has to make sure the student
representative on the University Presidential Search
and Screen Committee knows what students want in a
University president. Students want a president who is
progressive on issues including co-ed hous l ing,and one
who is willing to talk with all students, not just student
leaders, he said
USG must also be involved with University money
matters including tuition increases and financial aid, he
said.

McJunkin announce USG candidacy
Because the University is on the state budget's
unpreferred list whose money concerns tend to get cut,
tuition increases too much. Parvensky said.
"Until we get a (student) lobby, all we can do is say,
'Please don't raise our tuition' and then cross our
fingers," he said
Therefore, Parvensky said he supports efforts to
organize with Pennsylvania's other state-related uni
versities: the University of Pittsburgh, Temple Univer
sity and Lincoln University, and lobby for student
concerns.
Student government must also continue its efforts to
fight reductions in financial aid, he said.
In addition to being a USG town senator, Parvensky is
also USG senate liaison to the Asociation of Residence
Hall Students and a member of the USG department of
minority affairs. Parvensky also served as chairman of
the USG senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Reapportion
ment.
On the University level, Parvensky said he would
work to "return student government back to the stu
dents."
"Student government has been neglecting the largest
portion of our campus" by not working with smaller
student organizations like the Outing Club and the
Management Club, he said.
To learn about their concerns, Parvensky said he
would group the smaller organizations by common
interests and hold discussion meetings.
McJunkin, a USG town senator and former chairman
of the senate's Police Seryices Committee, said student

organizations are willing to work with USG. McJunkin
said when he needed people to work with police services
projects, members of a related student organizations
got involved.
"Organizations that have been ignored in the past
have worked, can work and will work with USG," said
McJunkin, a member of the USG senate Ad-Hoc Com
mittee on Reapportionment
Parvensky said that the minority recruitment and
retention system at the University is a "farce" because
minority students make up 2.3 percent of the total
University student population. _ .
"The University has an obligation to students to get
them up here and make them feel at home when they get
here," he said. _
Because minority students feel "alienated" at the
University, Parvensky proposed developing a buddy
system for minority students in which freshmen would
be introduced to juniors who would help them adapt to
University life.
A 1975 task force on the problem recommended
policies to increase minority enrollment and minority
recruitment increased until 1978 before decreasing
again, he 'said.
Parvensky said he would consult the task force's
report for ideas and would also try to start a pilot
project for University students to go to Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh to "promote Penn State by a student angle."
Parvensky said he would not attempt major restruc
turing of USG becapse it would take too much time.
