However, Video-conference examines college alcohol use By KELLY KRESS Collegian Staff Writer As part of National Collegiate Alcohol Aware ness Week, the University Office of Health Promo tion and Education sponsored a live, nationwide satellite video-conference last night in 112 Kern about alcohol use and abuse on college campuses. The program, "Alcohol: A Special Report," is produced by Satellighting, a satellite video-confer encing company which specializes in producing satellite programs for college campuses. The programs deal with the issues affecting our na tion's students. The program featured a panel of experts on alcohol including Norma Phillips, the president of Mothers Against Drunk Driving; Drew Hunter, Panel: Adult children of alcoholics resilient By KRISTIE BAUMGARTNER Collegian Staff Writer Adult children of alcoholics must cope with many emotions to recover from the situation, said a University psychologist at a panel discussion last night. "Adult children of alcoholics are resilient survivors of an extremely chaotic situation," said Dr. Bill Hola han, a staff psychologist for Universi ty Psychological Services. "What is Reality for Adult Children of Alcoholics?" featured six adult children of alcoholics who expressed their personal experiences and recov ery processes in the HUB fishbowl. Holahan asked the audience of about 125 people to imagine living in a home where achievements and emo tions are ignored or punished violent ly. He explained children of alcoholics often assume different family roles to cope with the situation. The family "hero" assumes household responsi bilities and is usually an academic achiever, Holahan said. One panelist said she cooked dinner each night for AMAZING OFFER!

Recovering alcoholics and college students also had a chance to speak. The panel discussions featured such topics as how alchol affects a person, why alcohol is a problem on college campuses, the long-term ef fects of alcohol on a person, drunk driving and alcoholism. A toll-free telephone number was provided for college students nationwide to call and ask ques tions during the panel discussions. A wide variety of topics were addressed, including how alcohol could be eliminated from social activities, how to her alcoholic mother, earned good grades in school and was captain of her high school track team. The "scapegoat," a defiant family member who usually causes trouble at school, may be identified as the problem to divert attention from the real alcohol problem, Holahan said. The "lost child" is a loner who with draws from the family while the "mascot" of the family attempts to relieve tension by telling jokes, Hola han said. These adopted roles cause prob lems for children of alcoholics in adulthood, Holahan said. "People from alcoholic homes may have sig nificant difficulties in establishing intimate relationships" because emo tional closeness may have been pun ished, Holahan said. One panelist said he married, and later divorced a woman who was reared in a dysfunc tional family due to alcoholism. Holahan said alcoholism affects every family member. Growing up in an alcoholic home influences a child's self-esteem and ability to trust oth ers, Holahan said. One panelist said he initially trusts friends but if the there was some disagreement on how much of the budget should be dis closed. "If you go ahead and open the budget, you should keep all personal salaries closed," said GSA Delegate Laura Karkowski-Shuman. Peter Steine disagreed, saying that in a recent USA Today survey of 20 university presidents' salaries, Penn State President Bryce Jordan's sala ry was the only one not available. Steine said it is the norm for state related universities to disclose their presidents' salaries. Martin said the budget information should be presented in a digestible form. Using another university's bud get he had seen as an example, he trust is violated once, it is lost forev er. Some children of alcoholics are perfectionists they have a distorted perception of achievement because their parents may have told them that their achievements were not adequate, Holahan said. • Children of alcoholics, especially the family "hero", may feel guilty about leaving home because they are abandoning a dependent person. The adult children of alcoholics experience a series of growth and healing stages, Holahan said. The first stage of survival occurs when adults do not realize that their life is guided by emotional repercussions relating to parental alcoholism, Hola han said. The emergent awareness stage in volves coming out, as the panelists are tonight, Holahan said. Other stages involve defining emotions and coping with a different reality. Adult children of alcoholics can get help by contacting the Total Alcohol Awareness Program in 236 Ritenour Health Center.

He told the delegates he disagreed with some disclosures in the USG open budget proposal, such as listing of "in-state versus out-of-state travel expenditures for faculty and grad uate students" and the breakdown of faculty salaries by demographic cat egories, such as race and religion. "Those are the things I found most objectionable," he said. The Assembly also approved an allocation of $2OO to help sponsor a free concert by the Caribbean music duo The Washington Sisters, who will play at the Paul Robeson Cultural Center November 18 at 8 p.m. help friends who are suspected of having an alcohol problem, and how the greek system could help change students' attitudes toward drinking. A film of a demonstration given at the Universi ty of Texas at Arlington was also shown during the program. The demonstration had students drink shots of the alcohol of their choice until their actions were impaired, then drive between rows of pylons. Bobby Pfau of the Office of Health Promotion and Education said the program was directed toward the entire university population and also special populations, such as blacks and women. "The program made experts ... available on screen that we couldn't have at Penn State," Pfau said. Programs offered on alcohol usage As National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week continues, members of the University com munity will be able to quench their thirst for information about alcohol consumption and abuse through University programs.
