Homecoming
(continued from 1)
Director of Admissions, Mary-
Ellen Madigan encourages
students to attend the Academic
Fair.
"It's good for students who
aren’t decided on a major," said
Madigan. "It's a rare opportunity
for students to talk with
professors one-on-one."
Madigan said, "the Master
Classes are basically Behrend
Faculty making a presentation in
their area of expertise."
"The alumni panel discussion
is composed of alumni from the
50's, 60’s, 70's, 80's and 90's
who will discuss what Behrend
was like when they attended it."
The alumni athletic events are
reunions of Behrend's former
teams explained Bonnie Fagen,
development officer.
"They will play against each
other, as well as the (Behrend's)
current teams," Fagen said.
"Homecoming is really a
combination of the three groups
(admissions, development,
student activities) working in
cooperations," said Fagen.

Behrend Budget
Strikes Series
by Teresa Turle
The Collegian
Due to budget cuts
implemented within the Penn
State system Behrend's
nationally recognized Speaker
Series has been cancelled.
There will still be a type of
speaker series, but it will be
made up mostly of Behrend
faculty.
According to the
administration, the money saved
from the speaker series cut will
be filtered into other forms of
activities and programs for
students.
Money has been allocated
into the improvement of
Bruno's Night Club. There will
now be live performances at
Bruno's, every weekend night.
The intramural sports
program has also been granted
extra funds. Intramural
programs will now be held as
day long tournaments.
Money has been allocated to
supplement residence life staff,
who currently have no budget.
The remaining funds will be
given to clubs and organizations
across the board.
According to administration,
by doing away with the Speaker
Series, Behrend didn't have to

The series gained national
recognition for Behrend,
therefore, its cancellation not
only effects students, but faculty
and the community as well.
David Shields, director of
student activities, explained that
The Speaker Series set Behrend
aside from other colleges.
Behrend students expressed
feelings of regret towards the
Series cancellation.
Todd Turley, a sixth semester
MIS major, said, "I'm upset that
they are cancelled because I
enjoyed them greatly."
Both David Shields and John
Burke, Associate Provost and
senior Associate Dean, are
hopeful that they can bring the
Speaker Series back, but it
depends on the budget cuts they
have to make. They hope they
can bring it back because they
know how much it means to
campus life.
Brandon Hunt, a third
semester Science major said, "I
think its tragic, 1 think the
students get a lot out of them."
Sue Galle, a seven semester
Pschology major, said, "It
seems that the programs that
have to do with education get
cancelled, so what arc we paying
all the money for?"
