Edward Shapiro and Verne M. Willaman are among 14 alumni fellows who will visit this semester, said Heather K.

There is an abundance of talent among Penn State alumni and through the alumni fellows program,” said William J. Rothwell, executive director of the Alumni Association. “The Alumni Fellows is an all-University award pro gram sponsored by the Alumni Association and the academic colleges,” Gilbert said. “Eminent alumni are invited to meet and lecture with students and faculty.” The fellows program began in 1973 and 19 new fellows were appointed this year, she said.

Bob Taylor, president of RHAB, said although no choice is current ly offered in the State College area, a major long distance com pany, MCI, has acknowledged plans to expand into the State College area by Fall 1986. According to new telephone laws, the University must choose a long distance company by Dec, 20, otherwise a choice will be made for the University. As of now the only available company is AT&T. Taylor said that the choice is important because if a new small long-distance service would begin business in the area, the Universi ty could be assigned to a company on PSU appropriations Building, and construction of a nutri tion laboratory in the Human Devel opment Building, Forni said. Prospective projects for University Commonwealth campuses include re placing the electrical distribution systems at Altoona and Capitol cam puses, and constructing and renovat ing buildings at Behrend College, Ogontz, Shenango Valley and Schuy kill campuses, Forni said. The University will work closely with the Senate to encourage bill passage, which was approved by the state House of Representatives in June, Forni said. House and Senate committees will also consider the reviews of several Pennsylvania commissions. These agencies will cease to exist if they are not approved before the end of the year, Herman said. The Senate also will discuss the fate of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board. If the agency is dismantled, control of state liquor stores would be which might not serve all of the long-distance areas that AT&T currently serves. Taylor also said his committee has looked into the possibility of billing each student separately for long-distance calls. This would be done through a system of codes dialed into AT&T. / The committee also decided to vote against the new AT&T non subscriber cards which would al low the caller to bill the number which he is calling. However, a fifty cent charge for operator as sistance would be added to the initial cost of the phone call. ' The committee has also begun research on the possibility of in stalling touch-tone lines thorough out the University. The touch-tone service would be necessary to use another company such as MCI. Taylor said he believes this is a good idea because “it’s the way of the future.” passed to private owners, Herman said. Several bills on the LCB are now pending, including a proposal to transfer enforcement of liquor laws from the LCB to either the attorney general’s office or the state police, he said. The state House will discuss a re view of the Public Utilities Commis sion which determines electricity, gas, water and telephone service rates, Herman said. The House will also consider short ening the PUC commissioners’ term of office from 10 years to either four, five or six years. Changes in the election of commis sioners from a two-thirds Senate ma jority to only 26 votes will also be considered, as well as requiring com mission applicants to provide proof of qualification and experience, Her man said. The Senate will consider several reforms of the Catastrophic Loss Trust Fund, Herman said. DOES YOUR ORGANIZATION NEED MONEY? DOES YOUR ORGANIZATION NEED MONEY? DOES YOUR ORGANIZATION NEED MONEY?

Also, a variety of scholarships will be awarded to school majors. Applications for both are available in 216 Carnegie. Deadline for application is October 1. Education scholarship is officially endowed The College of Education Alumni Society Scholarship, which has pro vided money for four outstanding education majors for the past two years, was officially endowed this summer and is now an official schol arship fund within the college. The scholarship is available to all graduate and undergraduate stu dents enrolled or planning to enroll in the college, said A.J. Grill, head of the Alumni Society. Last year the scholarship was awarded to four people and was funded by an alumni endowment fund, Grill said. Alumni and friends of the College of Education raised about $25,000 in the two years since the fundraiser began, he said, adding that the money raised has been in vested and scholarships will now be paid by interest on the endowment. “Each scholarship awarded is for about $3OO to $4OO per year,” Grill said, “but we hope to increase that as the endowment increases.” Recipients are chosen by the Col lege of Education’s Scholarship Com mittee as approved by the Office of Student Aid. “We gave about four last year, and four this year,” said Grill. Candidates for the scholarship must show high academic achieve ment, participate in school and com munity activities and demonstrate strong commitment and professional promise in education. Scholarships awarded will be deter mined by the selection committee each year. Awards are made for one academic year and may be renewed if recipients continue to qualify. The College of Education presently offers 35 to 40 scholarships through 10 scholarship funds, each endowed by special interest groups, Grill said. He added the new scholarship is “just the initiative of the Alumni Society.” —by Gregg Bortz
