Greek Week begins
with party games
By CAROL CHASE
Collegian Staff Writer
Let the competition begin! Greek
Week will officially begin this af
ternoon when State College Mayor
Arnold Addison launches the week by
opening greek games at a block par
ty.
Kelley Lynch, Greek Week chair
woman', said the block party, which
starts at 4 today at East Fairmount
Avenue and Fraternity Row, - will be
one of several events at which the
greek community can show their
spirit
Ben Siegel, Interfraternity Council
public relations chairman, said
Greek Week is "an end-of-the-year
spring bash to unify everybody in a
fun atmosphere."
The theme of Greek Week this year
is "More than a Party." Because
many people think greeks just sit
around and get drunk, IFC picked
this theme to remind non-greeks that
greek organizations contribute a lot
to the community, Siegel said.
"With a theme like 'More than a
Party,' we're trying to bring out other
aspects greek , involvement in the
University and the community that
often aren't realized as much because
they don't get as much attention as
the things that everyone harps on,"
Siegel said
Greek Week events throughout the
week will be:
• Monday Block Party/Greek
Games from 4 to 7 on E. Fairmount
and Fraternity Row.
di/MI 1 1111
a II Special! 1
• Tuesday Carnival from noon
to 4 on the HUB lawn and Skits from 7
to 10 p.m. in 301 HUB.
• Wednesday Chariot Race
from 4 to 7 on Fairmount between
Garner and Hetzel, and Skits from
7:30 to 10:30 in the HUB Ballroom.
• Thursday God/Goddess Con
test/Dance from 8:30 to 11 p.m. in
White Building, and Skits from 7 to
9:45 in the HUB Ballroom.
o Friday Skit Finals and
Awards at 7 in Eisenhower Auditori
um.
Anyone in the University and local
community is welcome to attend the
events, Siegel said.
Greek week
,this year differs from
other years in several ways, Lynch
said. To promote spirit and unity in
the greek community, a spirit compe
tition was initiated in which teams
earn spirit points for attending
events, she said.
Also, smaller events like a movie
night and swim night took place last
week so greeks could "relax, have
fun, and just enjoy being a Penn State
student," she added. "These events
were to remind everyone that being
greek is more than just competing,"
she said.
In previous years, no money was
earned for philanthropies, Siegel
said. But this year, carnival proceeds
will benefit the Special Olympics, he
said. At the carnival, game booths
will be set up by greek organizations,
and tickets to play will cost five cents,
he added.

Lab expected to open this summer
By CHRISTINE KILGORE
Collegian Science Writer
A new fluid mechanics laboratory
developed by the mathematics de
partment for experimental research
and interaction between mathemat
ics and other disciplines is expected
to begin operating this summer.
Jerry Bona, professor of math
ematics and one of the laboratory's
founders, said the $250,000 lab, being
built in McAllister Building, will be
used by faculty and student research
ers to compare laboratory mea
surements with mathematical
models and equations developed to
describe fluid motion.
Although a few individual math
ematicians have similar laborato
ries, this is the first mathematics
department-based lab in the country,
said Bona, who has teamed up with
mathematics Professors William
Pritchard and Rideway Scott to work
on the lab. All three joined the faculty
last fall, he said.
"We will all work on fluid mechan
ics, but we're all different. Pritchard
is an experimentalist, Scott deals
with the numerical aspects, and I am
theoretical," said Bona, who has a
joint appointment at the University's
Applied Research Laboratory. "Hav
ing these three points of view doesn't
happen much. . . . There is no other
lab in a math department anywhere
in the country.
"The pure discipline of mathemat
ics is somewhat isolated. There are
applied mathematicians but math
departments are still isolated from
the rest of university communities,"
said Bona, adding that all funding for
the laboratory came from the College
of Science.
"This laboratory has already out
reached to other departments."
Pritchard, who holds a joint ap
pointment in the aerospace . engi
neering department, said the lab
resembles one that used to exist at

the University of Essex in England,
where he previously worked.
"The idea evolved from the set-up
we had in England. Fluid mechanics
isn't new it's an area of physics
that's very mathematical," Prit
chard said. "It's also an area in
which you can do very interesting
experiments cheaply."
Fluid mechanics, which includes
wave motion and free-surface flow, is
a part of almost every technological
and industrial process, Pritchard
said.
Research performed at the new
laboratory, however, will not have
direct applications to industry, he
added.
"We're trying to understand the
science," Pritchard said. "We can
take a fundamental process asso
ciated with a class of flows and if we
can isolate the crucial physics and
solve the problems, then the engineer
has a role."
Bona pointed to the artificial heart
as an example of a technology involv
ing fluid mechanics and "some very
complicated fluid flow problems."
Pritchard added that fluid flow con
cepts are important in making emul
sions for film.
The mathematic equations that de
scribe fluid motion relate velocities
and pressures in the fluid flow, Prit
chard said. "We can try and model
equations through an experiment or
we can take an experiment that's
done and try to develop equations (to
describe it)."
Most of the equipment and set-ups
used in flow experiments will be built
by the researchers in a machine shop
associated with the laboratory, Bona
said.
One piece' of equipment already
obtained is a regular pipe through
which cooking oil will circulate, he
said. "There are very delicate mea
surements to be obtained from the
flow," he said. "The experiments

may look very simple, but they're
really very complicated."
Pritchard said flow speeds and
fluid viscosity the degree of resis
tance to flow under pressure will
constantly be adjusted in the experi
ments.
"Materials are characterized not
just by viscosity but by, the scale of
the experiment. If you take a small
animal swimming through water, it
will find it very viscous, but a large
animal like a whale would find the
water very thin," Pritchard said.
"Similarly, if you move through wa
ter very slowly, it will seem more
viscous than if you were moving
through it faster."
Bona said understanding how fluid
flow changes and how to take accu
rate measurements without disturb
ing the flow will be a critical parts of
the research.
Computers will be used to take data
from the experiments and perform
various calculations and mathemati
cal manipulations, Bona said. Re
searchers will have access to the a
very high speed fiber-optics connec
tion called a T-1 line that runs to
Princeton University's supercomput
er center.
Bona and Pritchard said the labo
ratory will give student researchers
problem-solving experience and an
advantage in the job market.
"This will give students a greater
perspective," Pritchard said. "We
have real-life problems to solve."
A public awareness of "real-life"
problems, such as those that will be
confronted in the University's new
laboratory, and the important role
that mathematics plays in solving
them is the focus of this week's Na
tional Mathematics Awareness
Week.
"So many things we do now need
mathematics," Bona said. "You
name a subject matter and we'll find
mathematical applications."
