It's the semester of hello and
goodbyes. Assistant Professor of
Psychology, Michael Ichiyama,
will be leaving this semester, but
we have also gained a staff
member.
Sue Daly, currently Bchrend's
personal counselor, has been
hired as the new clinical
psychologist.
Daly worked for Erie's Rape
Crisis Center for 17 years before
coming to Behrend. She has
received her Master's Degree in
Clinical PSychology and "may
one day" pursue a Ph.D. She has
been working at Behrend since
the beginning of the fall semester
as a part-time personal counselor
before acquiring the full-time
position.
Daly was chosen from a field
of three possible. She made it
through this initial phase before
moving on to the interview
session.
"The night before the
interviews, I was nervous," said
Daly. "But I told myself, let
Behrend take a shot with me."
She prepared for questions
aimed at determining her
competence and claimed later that
they weren't as hard as she
thought they'd be.

Daly said, "I was touched and
honored in receiving the job."
"Daly was a clear-cut choice.
She has a pleasant nature and the
students are comfortable with
her," said, Chris Reber, dean of
Student Affairs. "She's seen more
students here part-time than were
seen all of last year. The students
must feel comfortable around
her."
Upon returning from the
holidays, Daly plans to organize
her office for the next twelve
months. She is planning to
gather information for a multi
media library with videos and
audio-visual tapes, which
students will be able to take out.
She commented that she is here
for students and it any student has
a problem or wants to talk, they
can call and make an
appointment. She is located in
the Counseling and Advising
office in the Reed Building.
Michael Ichiyama, Assistant
Professor of Psychology, will be
leaving Behrend at the end of the
semester to pursue a job at the
University of Michigan at
Lansing. There he will be part of
a longitudinal study program.
Roberta Salper, Division
Head of Humanities and Social
Sciences, said "I am devastated at
his leaving."

"This is a good sign for the
Behrend College Psychology
Department being good enough
to stay or go. It's testimony of
his quality and the quality of our
division."
Ichiyama lamented that he will
miss Behrend, but at this point in
his life, he couldn't pass up the
opportunity. It will be a good
move for his career.
He needs to find out if this is
the route he's going to be happy
with or if he's going to miss the
classroom.
Ichiyama also said, "1 will
miss my students more than
anything else, in and out of the
classroom." He valued his
colleagues, but the students are
the ones that make up the
campus.
The division of Humanities and
Social Sciences will begin a
national search for a replacement
for Ichiyama in January.
Ichiyama was involved not
only with his classes, but also
advised the Psy Chi-Honors
Society, was the faculty advisor
for Behrend's Martial Arts Club
and also the faculty advisor for
Behrend's Billiard Club.
According to Salper, one of
the major goals for the future of
the division would be to increase
the number of full-time faculty
for the psychology department.

So, the University plans to
phase out funding for WPSE?
Then they'll just have to fund it
themselves.

commercial radio station, plans
to hire a marketing and sales

A motion was passed to allow
Pine to keep the free trip to
Florida, but not to receive a
sell and run the station so that
eventually the students can run
the station completely by
themselves.
"The main focus will be sales,
but he or she will also work with
the students to develop their
skills in radio sales and
marketing," said David Shields,
director of Student Activities.
