fot news in’ the day dfter it
happens;
the administrative representa-
tives of the local campus of
Penn. State. The program will
be federally funded through the
Governor’s Justice Committee
through the auspices of Harry
E. Russ Jr., director of central
region.
Preliminary steps in this
innovative surveying program
for qualified residents of the
local correctional institution
were begun June 16, 1971, in an
exploratory meeting with
George W. Bierly, campus
director; Charles Meck, John
Kolesar, Frank Johnston,
former institution superinten-
dent; Dr. Harry Snyder and
Norman Friend, representa-
tives from Harrisburg.
Following a series of
meetings and hours of in-
vestigative study, a proposal
was submitted by the ad-
ministration of the Wilkes-
Barre Campus for Phase I of the
surveying program. The
program, requiring 320 hours of
class and field work on the part
of participating residents, when
successfully completed will
enable these men to accept
positions in the field of sur-
veying upon completion of their
sentence.
This initial course will include
the necessary theory and
practicum to enable the
students to qualify as rodmen,
chainmen or instrument men in
the field of surveying. Suc-
cessful completion of the Phase
I program will also qualify the
men to enroll in credit courses
for an associate degree in
surveying.
Following announcement of
the university program within
the institution, more than 40
residents applied for admission
to the course. Thomas J.
Figmik, senior psychologist,
working closely with Professor
Kolesar, carefully screened and
evaluated the applicants in
selecting the 26 residents able to
meet the minimum require-
ments necessary to participate
in the university program.
In an interview with Leonard
J. Mack he said, ‘This is an
explosive thrust forward in our
treatment program at the in-
stitution and here at Dallas, we
are delighted with this direction
and plan to explore similar
opportunities to the utmost. I
hope that this is only the
beginning and that in the near
future we will be able to offer
more educational opportunities
to all our residents who desire
and are able to participate. We
will welcome all educational
institutions who wish to offer
development opportunities for
these men.”’
Both. Mr. Bierly and Mr.
Meck, administrators at
Wilkes-Barre Campus, ex-
pressed their enthusiasm over
the beginning of the pilot sur-
veying program. Mr. Bierly
growth in real estate
development and fewer
graduate engineers entering the
surveying field has created a
nationwide shortage in this
area. “‘I firmly believe”, said
Mr. Bierly, ‘‘that this service to
the institution by the Wilkes-
Barre Campus can aid in the
readjustment to life by these
residents in providing new,
rewarding careers needed by
our society.”
Classes will average six hours
weekly for the entire year and
will include a two week summer
camp to enable the students to
do actual field work. Mr.
Kolesar will serve as coor-
dinator of the program assisted
by John R. Hychko and Lee A.
Sweinberg. Paul Menapace,
business manager at state cor-
rectional institution, has
assisted in setting up business
and financial records as well as
