EVERYONE IS WELCOME PO4O 025 ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★-A-* ★ ★★★★ School discipline problems discussed By VALERIE GLENZ Collegian Staff Writer Normal behavior displayed by children can easily become disrup tive in a classroom setting, an affil iate professor of education said last night. James Levin, also an academic adviser in the Division of Under graduate Studies, spoke on “Disci pline in the Schools” as part of the “Current Issues in Education” se ries sponsored by Phi Delta Kappa, the international professional edu-' cation organization. Levin said schools are prone to misbehavior because they concen trate a large number of children in one area for long periods of time, they expose well-behaved children to norm-violating behavior and be cause many students would rather be somewhere else than in school. “Classes are overcrowded and the schools can’t meet the special needs of some of the children. This West College bunch to hold "special" benefit In step with the “philanthropic rock” concert trend, four local bands will play for charity at 8 p.m. tonight at the Scorpion, 232 W. Calder Way. A Special Jam for Special Kids, will benefit the Centre County Association for Retarded Citizens. This local agency provides job placement serv ices, housing and recreational pro grams for retarded adults and children as well as the Rainbow causes behavior problems,” Levin said. Many factors cause children to misbehave, he said. “These are both internal and external to stu dents, and they are both inside and outside of the schools.” The learning environment is an important factor in whether or not students will misbehave. “If a teacher doesn’t have a sup portive, caring climate and doesn’t appropriately use the learning prin ciples, then the blame can’t be put on the kids,” Levin said. “Poor instruction leads to misbehavior.” Developmental difficulties, in cluding physical and cognitive changes that adolescents go through, may cause students to misbehave, Levin said. Societal factors also play an important part. “The conflict between internal and external pressures (from peers and society) create frustration, in competence and tension which lead to misbehavior,” Levin said.

Levin said different teachers of ten react to the same behavior in different ways. “Teachers really can do some thing about classroom manage ment they can change the way a class behaves,” he said. “A teacher must change his behavior to change his students’ behavior, and he doesn’t have to compete with stu dents. “Teachers and students have a mutual responsibility. We have to be prepared to teach, and they have to come in and learn and let others learn also.” The rationale behind all disci pline techniques should be that stu dents have a right to sit there and fail, but they don’t have the right to disturb others, he. said. “Teachers must believe that kids are basically good this is the start of an answer to the problem,” Levin said.

Shrigley, professor of education and coordinator for graduate stud ies, curriculum and instruction. He described a variety of short-term coping skills teachers could use to directly influence behavior. “Body language, or nonverbal communication, is often very effec tive,” he said. “These techniques range from less to more assertive assertive enough to be effective, but not enough to be aggressive.” One technique is planned ignor ing, or ignoring certain disruptive behaviors, Shrigley said. “Disruptive behavior that is not reinforced often ceases on its own accord,” he said. Signal interference, or showing the child disapproval of a behavior by a signal such as the slow nodding of the head, is another effective means of controlling behavior. Verbal techniques used by teach ers include repeating a command or request, raising the volume of one’s voice and showing humor instead of anger, Shrigley said. Ross saw Special Jam for Special Kids as a unique project, since it is in support of “something right here in Centre County.” IT i m/Mim f f j 1 I Whole wheat dough available f any 16" Pizza l or more items —by Jeff Bliss sports Chisox Guillen named AL Rookie of the Year By JOHN NELSON AP Baseball Writer NEW YORK Shortstop Ozzie Guillen, who came to the Chicago White Sox in a trade that sent a Cv Young winner to San Diego, was named the American League Rookie of the Year in voting re leased yesterday by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. The 21-year-old Guillen, who liv es in his native Venezuela, com mitted just 12 errors in 150 games this past season, the fewest of any regular American League short stop, while hitting .273. He came to the White Sox last Dec. 10 in the seven-player deal that sent right-handed pitcher La- Marr Hoyt, the 1983 Cy Young award winner, to San Diego along with two minor leaguers for pitch er Tim Lollar, infielder Luis Sala zar, Guillen and a minor leaguer. Guillen received 16 of a possible 28 first-place votes alloted two apiece among BBWAA members in each of the 14 American League cities for 101 total points. Ted Higuera, a left-handed pitcher from the Milwaukee Brewers, was second with nine first-place votes and 67 points. Phillips steps down from post with Saints By AUSTIN WILSON Associated Press Writer NEW ORELANS - Bum Phillips abuptly resigned as head coach of the New Orleans Saints yesterday, fore going the final $1.3 million of his contract. Also resigning were team Presi dent Eddie Jones, Director of Foot ball Operations Pat Peppier, and Public Relations Director Greg Suit. Jones, Peppier and Suit were asked to resign by new owner Tom Benson. Wade Phillips, son of the head coach and defensive coordinator, was named interim head coach. Benson said he will work as president and general manager. “My job was to win football games. My job here was to provide a winning season, and I didn’t do that,” Phillips said. “Winning is the American way, and I’m glad it is. It was winning that e'nabled me to go from Class AA high school in Texas to two head coach and general manager jobs in the National Football League.” The Saints, after winning Sunday at Minnesota, are 4-8 this year. Phillips was 27-42 in four-plus seasons at New Orleans and 86-80 for his career in the NFL. Third went to another Brewer, infielder Earnest Riles, who got 29 points, followed by outfielder Odd ibe McDowell, Texas, 25; pitcher Stu Cliburn, California, 16; pitcher Brian Fisher, New York, 7; pitch er Tom Henke, Toronto, 5, and catcher Mark Salas, Minnesota, 2. McDowell, Cliburn and Henke got the other first-place votes. A first-place vote counts five points, with three awarded for second and one for third. In 1985, Guillen became the third Venezuelan to play shortstop for the White Sox and the club’s fifth Rookie of the Year award winner. Before Guillen, Venezuelans Chico Carrasquel and Luis Apari cio played shortstop for the White Sox. Chicago’s most recent rookie winner was outfielder Ron Kittle in 1983. Before that, they were Aparicio in 1956, Gary Peters in 1963 and Tommie Agee in 1966. Alvin Davis of the Seattle Mari ners won the 1984 AL rookie award. Higuera finished second in bal loting with a 15-8 record and 3.90 ERA for the Brewers. He allowed 30 earned runs and 186 hits in 2121- 3 innings pitched, striking out 127 and walking 63. Benson said it was Phillips’ deci sion to resign. “I want you to know I didn’t ask for it,” he said at a hastily called news conference. “He told me he was doing it for the good of the club, the good of the city and for me.” ’ Benson bought the club from John Mecom Jr. for almost $7O million prior to this season. He said it was always Phillips’ idea to forego the final three years of his contract. “He could have put his feet up on the desk the next three years and sat there,” Benson said. Peppier handled player acquisi tions and contracts for the Saints. Jones and Suit handled the business and public relations end. Benson said he asked for Suit’s resignation because he didn’t want anyone around from the' 18 years of losing since the team was formed in 1967. The Saints have never had a winning season. They were 8-8 under both Dick Nolan and Bum Phillips. Wade Phillips said he accepted the resignation of King Hill as offensive coordinator, but would not say wheth er he asked Hill to quit. “I thought it would be the happiest day of my life when I got to be the head coach in the NFL,” the younger Phillips said.
