Maloney ’Streamlines Student Services; PAPARELLI FORCED OUT Additional stories on page 3 Maloney Albert (Al) Paparelli, director of Commons And extracurricular activities at Corning Community College since the summer of 1970, is being “streamlined” out of a job. Student Services Being “Restructured” In a restructuring operation developed by Clark Maloney, acting dean of student services, the office of director of student activities will be eliminated. The job will fall on the shoulders of Wilma Beaman, director of Educational Opportunity Programs (EOP). Beaman would be handling both jobs if the proposal is approved. The actual job of directing student activities would be handled by an assistant. Frederick Has Final Approval The final approval of the Paparelli restructuring recommendation rests with college president Robert W. Frederick. The proposal is now in his office. Dr. Frederick has told student leaders that he will make his decision on the matter sometime during the week of May 3-7. To Reduce Number Of Directors Dr. Frederick told a group of student leaders that the primary reason for the action was to streamline the administration of the college by eliminating “too many chiefs” among the Indians. He said that the restructuring was first initiated over four years ago, designed initially to reduce the number of administrators for a declining student population. The student population has By GENE MULLEN been steadily increasing since then, and is projected to level off in about five years. Resignation Already Requested By Maloney Maloney has already asked Paparelli for his resignation. Paparelli told The Crier that Maloney had at first charged him verbally with insubordination. When asked to put the charge in writing, according to Paparelli, Maloney declined, sending Paparelli the request that he resign. Bad Blood Reported Between Paparelli And Maloney A report of bad blood and personal animosity between Paparelli and Maloney, confirmed by Paparelli, has been suggested by many as the real reason for the restructuring action eliminating the job of director of student services. Dr. Frederick told a meeting of student leaders last week that such a relationship should have no effect on the proposal, but admitted that such animosity “may have intruded into the decision.” Faculty Council Protests Action The Faculty Association has protested the restructuring action, and is preparing a “white paper” presenting its concerns to the new president. The association has objected to a restructuring proposal developed by a man “who is, himself, holding a temporary position.” Student Leaders Also Protest A group of student leaders have written a letter of protest to college president Frederick, voicing their support of Paparelli, and objecting to the decision being made without student input and participation. Dr. Frederick told the group at a meeting in his office last week that “Clark may have goofed,” and it was an oversight to leave students out of the decision. The letter, signed by 21 student leaders, states the feelings of the students. In support of Paparelli, they state his capability and “devotion to students” in a professional capacity. Crier Conducts Special Survey In response to a statement by Dr. Frederick that he had heard negative comments from students regarding Paparelli’s job efficiency, The Crier has conducted a special Crier Asks Survey (see page 3), asking for student opinions about Paparelli’s efficiency. The Crier staff worked to make the survey a cross-section of student opinion. All answers received by The Crier are printed in The Criers Asks column, unedited and verbatim as written by the students. There were no negative comments from any students. Maloney Not On Campus Maloney was not available for comment at the time The Crier was scheduled to go to press.

Being at the top is never an easy position. The chair you sit in is a hot seat. And right now that seat must be getting a little hotter. Dr. Frederick will have to decide whether or not he is going to go along with Clark Maloney’s recommendations and eliminate One day last week a “meeting” took place in the office of the Dean of Instruction. The “meeting” was the final one in a series to set up a framework for reviewing instructional material for racist and sexist contents. This particular meeting was to plan how Delyte Frost could help in designing this framework. The logical place for this meeting concerning reviewing of Instructional material was the office of the Dean of Instruction. It was held there. The logical person to oversee this meeting was Hie Dean of Instruction. He was not there. At the meeting I learned the grab bag Our Side: By GENE MULLEN Editor-in-Chief The Man At The Top Al Paparelli’s job. How do you fire a man who has had nothing but excellent evaluations? How do you fire a man who is so devoted to his job that he willingly gives up his free time for that job? How do you fire a man who is one of the hardest-working men on campus? There is, of course, only one way. You get rid of your con- science. Then maybe you can sleep at night and forget that the man that you fired has been your friend. You can forget that the man that you fired was a man you have known and respected for years. Maybe you’ll even be able to look at yourself in the mirror. Maybe. By S ANDIE ELDRED Managing Editor An Instructional Spearhead that this is often the case with Dean Robert Chapman when it comes to racism/ sexism meetings. It is obvious that Dean Chapman doesn’t take CCC’s anti-racism/antisexism program too seriously. He does the bare minimum to insure the program’s existence, not its healthy life. He puts his signature on the memos Ron Hofsess writes for him. It would seem that Dean Chapman needs some nudging, some force to make him become seriously involved in fighting racism and sexism on campus. The logical person to do this nudging is President Robert Frederick; if he is as committed to the cause as he has led everyone to believe. Now in particular is a crucial time for Dean Chapman to push for the designing of a frame-work. The college needs a concrete policy concerning racism and sexism before President Frederick is replaced. The college has spent the last three years saying it is concerned with fighting racism and sexism. Now is the time to put those words into a firm action. The time has come for Dean Chapman to spearhead this action, or for President Frederick to spearhead Dean Chapman. Throwing the Paparellis To the Lions In the days of the Roman Empire, the Ceasars had an excellent method of getting rid of people they didn’t like. They fed them to the lions. And in this “benevolent dictatorship” we call Corning Community College, it is about to happen again. The only difference being that the Roman citizens enjoyed the sport. We do not. Of course, the man who has recommended feeding the Paparellis to the lions isn’t exactly a Caesar, but it looks like he’s working on it. The original Caesar was a soldier, statesman, author, and an ambitious politician. Our resident Caesar has that last quality. It is a case of one out of four being bad. What does an ambitious politician do? He smiles a lot. He never gives a straight answer unless forced to. He quickly chops off anyone who disagrees with him. What does a politician do when he gets close to the top? A lot more of the same. Smile at everybody, even though you may be planning to give them the axe. Never give straight answers. Make excuses, or give them a line of bull. It works most of the time. But you have to be careful. There are some people who don’t play that silly game. Those are the ones you have to get rid of first. If you don’t, they will show you up for what you are, whatever that is, and then the people above you that you are trying to impress will start taking a closer look at you. Most important of all, never, Never, NEVER let the people you are supposed to be serving know what you are doing. That could spoil all your plans. Whatever they are. IT COULD ONLY HAPPEN HERE. Don't Squeeze The Sharman By DAVE SHARMAN Associate Editor This week I’d like to leave you with a few questions that have been bothering me this past week. Why would an acting Dean and an outgoing President undertake a major re- organization of a sector of the college? Is it to make it look as though they’ve done a good job? Is it because of bad relationships? Is it sincere? Doesn’t it lack wisdom? Why are these political games becoming so widespread at C.C.C.? Letters to the editor are welcomed.

The minutes of the meeting, in regard to the changes in Student Services, report that the following resolution was made, seconded and passed: “The Faculty Council would like to protest the reorganization of the Student Personnel Services area. Although it is not faculty prerogative to determine administrative structure, we object to the timing of these changes which are being proposed by an administrator who is, himself, holding a temporary position. We feel that any changes of this type should be proposed to and ratified by the incoming president. To make such changes without proper involvement of the new president is inappropriate and will make the new president’s job harder to perform since the previous structure and functioning will be clouded by such last minute changes.” The Council said it will prepare a “white paper” to present its concerns to the new president. Student Government a crier Asks special: Supports Paparelli Student Government has gone on record as unanimously supporting Al Paparelli and condemning the action of Clark Maloney acting dean of student services in his restructuring proposal to eliminate the position of director of student activities. The proposal was put before Student Government at its April 29 meeting; the body was asked to support Al Paparelli, director of Commons and extracurricular activities at CCC against the restructuring proposal submitted to college President Robert W. Frederick for final approval. The Maloney proposal would eliminate the job of director of Commons and student extracurricular activities, combining this office with the office of Educational Opportunity Programs (EOP). Maloney has already asked Paparelli to resign. Speaking for the resolution, Senator Bruce Hurd said that Maloney’s proposal was the result of a personality conflict. “It is Maloney’s way of getting rid of Al,” he said. Paparelli, present as a non-voting advisor, was asked for particulars. He told the group Maloney “made it very clear it was his subjective choice to press for his resignation.” Paparelli said he ob- jected to the process that made no use of evaluation reports or objective reasons. Anyone, he said, could go with the simple process of eliminating the job he was holding. Paparelli said the restructuring proposal would make Wilma Beaman responsible for both areas (student activities and Educational Opportunity Programs) EOP is already drying up. The main reason given was too many managers in the present setup. Paparelli said that at the end of February he had “pretty much had it with the whole thing.” He said he had asked for a meeting with Dr. Frederick and Maloney. Maloney didn’t show up at the meeting, Paparelli said, and so he called off the meeting. Dr. Frederick gave Maloney the power to make recommendations about the restructuring, according to Paparelli. Dr. Frederick has the final approval of the recommendation. Dr. Frederick has said he will make the final decision “sometime next week.” (The week of May 3-7.) Hurd made the motion that Student Government pass a resolution to support Paparelli and keep his position. The resolution was passed unanimously. Student Leaders Protest Letter to Dr. Robert W. Frederick: Dear Dr. Frederick: We are the core of student leaders, both ingoing and outgoing, which represent the total student body on campus. The proposed major restructuring of the student personnel area has recently come to our attention. We are outraged that we had to come to this knowledge by our own means rather than being officially notified by the administrators involved in the restructuring. In an area that so vitally concerns students, we feel it a gross injustice that student input was not solicited. This action only served to increase the alienation already present between students and administrators. In addition, we feel it wrong to eliminate the position of Director of Student Activities and the man who has so capably filled the position. Not only has Mr. Paparelli (Al) filled the position well giving total devotion to students in a professional capacity, he has also been our friend. It seems strange that the only readily available link between the student body and the administration is being removed. The possible existence of a long-time animosity between Clark Maloney, and acting Dean of Student Services and Al, according to your statement of April 28, 1976, “may have intruded into the decision” to restructure the area. You also mentioned the fact that “Clark may have goofed. It was an oversight to leave students out of the decision.” After all, the students are the sole justification for the existence of Corn- ing Community College as an institution of higher education. Therefore, we as student representatives of the total student body, do make this statement of our position concerning the planned restructuring of the student personnel area. Respectfully, (signed by) William A. White, Student member. Board of Trustees; Dave Mikel, Allison D. Mayer, Rosanne Walls, Kim Evans, Sam Brooke, Ron Tarby, Jenifer Paquette, Steven M. Peet, Roger A. Williams, Bruce W. Hurd, Dana L. Keeler, David C. Ludwig, Barbara Givin, Susan Kash, Gene Mullen, Randy Dounce, Buck Lawson, Richard H. Cornell, Jeffrey R. Whittaker, Loren M. Wolfe. Giuffrida Hostile Toward Restructuring Proposal Dr. Robert Giuffrida, professor of Modern Languages at CCC has told The Crier that he is hostile toward the restructuring proposal submitted to college president Robert W. Frederick by Clark Maloney, acting dean of student services. Giuffrida said his hostility stems from the fact that the outgoing president has assigned an acting dean of students services the task of reorganizing a major sector of the college. He said he questions not only the wisdom of the proposal that would eliminate the office of director of student activities, but also the motivation, sincerity, strategy and politics behind it. Maloney has “until now, no adequate evaluative technique,” said Giuffrida, and his action is a slur on Beck (Donald Beck, dean of student services, presently on leave). He said that Maloney may be working a major overall without knowing how the student services section worked. Doing this would show his incompetence to make such judgments, Giuffrida said. Giuffrida questioned both Frederick and Maloney, who will not be coming back to the college. “How can they make major changes with the full knowledge that a new president is coming,” he asked, “unless they want to make it look as if they’ve done a good job?” Giuffrida also questioned Maloney’s action on the basis of his inexperience in student personnel operations. “Maloney hasn’t had time to learn the job,” he said, “now he’s tackling a major overhaul with Frederick’s blessing.” Giuffrida said the proposal will give Wilma Beaman, director of Educational Opportunity Programs (EOP), new responsibilities “implying that her position as director of EOP was not demanding enough. He said they are giving her a job in which she lacks specific experience. “The matter has overtones of reverse discrimination,” he added. Giuffrida said he has been asking for tables of organizations for the new proposal and has just now received them. ‘They are very unbalanced and poorly thought out,” he said. STUDENTS 'EVALUATE’ PAPARELLI - - OFFER NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS The Question: Do you think that Al Paparelli has been doing a good job as director of Student Activities? Do you think the position should be eliminated? Lynn Patterson, Sophomore, Elmira: “Yes, he has done a great job. He gets along with the students very well. No, I don’t think it (His position) should be eliminated.” Phillip B. Wilson, Sophomore, Painted Post: “Yes, as far as any involvement I’ve had with him. Perhaps the position should be eliminated, but I don’t think Al should.” Mike Clark, Sophomore, Coopers Plains: “No, don’t eliminate him. He should be put someplace else since I don’t see the value of his job, but I do see his value. Other people should be eliminated before Al. Should eliminate some of the other dead wood on campus if they are interested in cutting expenses, not people like Al who are their direct line with the students and make the college what it is.” Karen Dreher, Thurston: “The elimination of the position would hurt the students and we are already suffering from previous educational cutbacks.” Pat Kenyon, former student: “I think Al has done a damned good job -- as far as I’ve seen he mixes very well with students and follows the book. If this position were eliminated, it would destroy an important link with the administration.” Scott Woodward, Watkins Glen: “I think Al Paparelli has been doing a good job. I spoke with him recently about how the Commons could be improved and changed. I don’t believe the position should be eliminated.” Suzy Woodward, Elmira: “I think he has done a good job. What is the real reason for the elimination of the job? Could we have some political motives behind this?” Dave Ludwig, Elmira: “In my two years at CCC I’ve become very involved with students activities and Al. He’s been a very dedicated man to the students and his position, and has done an outstanding job. If the position is done away with, it would be a great blow to the student body.” Steve Rarick, Elmira: “I don’t really know much about Mr. Paparelli but I don’t think his position should be eliminated.” Rich Humphrey, Corning: “Any dealings that I have had with Al have been very favorable. I think he is doing a fine job. He always seems to find time for the students, which is more than I can say for some other staff members. As far as his job is concerned, there are other jobs that should be in more danger!” Sue O’Rourke, freshman, Elmira: “I feel Al has been doing a great job as Director of Student Activities. He has devoted most of his time for the students on this campus. As far as eliminating Al from his job I feel that Student Activities may go to hell. I don’t feel Al should be eliminated. Speaking for myself if Al is eliminated I would not have anything to do with Student Activities.” Jon M. Franzen: “I don’t really know enough about this to answer.” Jeannie Lupo: “Al Paparelli is one of the best people on campus when it comes to getting things done and doing things for students.” Sherman Curry, Freshman, Corning: “As far as I’m concerned he is doing a good job and the position should remain and not be eliminated.” Dave Mikel, Sophomore, Elmira: “I am totally against the restructuring, partly because students had no input into the plan, and partly because I think that by eliminating this position students will lose a vital link in the power structure of the school. I also feel that the restructuring is a ploy used to eliminate Al.” Jeni Paquette: “Al is the one administrator students can talk to and get answers. If the restructuring goes through, all student activities will be hurt.” Roger Williams, ICC President-elect: “Having known and worked with Al for the past three years in different capacities I can honestly say that Al is one of the few administrators on campus who is readily a-vailable at almost any time of the day. He is also the only administrator who deals directly with the student body, and one of the few administrators who can deal with students on the student’s level. Al works hard at what he does and I feel that the elimination of him along with his position would be sheer stupidity on the part of the high administration of CCC.” Bruce Schoonover, president, Tech Club: “In my opinion Al’s attitude toward the students on this campus is number One. He is always willing to help when a club or organization is having trouble setting up an event or party. With Al all one has to do is ask.” Vernon Farrand, treasurer, Tech Club: “Al’s opinion always seems to coincide with the students’, he goes out of his way to give us a break. I sincerely doubt he could be adequately replaced.” Tom Marmuscak, Corning: “Al has put a lot of time and effort into student activities (Ex. Region II Leadership Workshop). Maybe the dean of student services should resign!” 4 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MA Y 6,1976 By DAVE MIKEL A Sort of a Summary I really don’t want to write a column this week. Two pieces of the Primary puzzle just fell into place; Carter’s win in Pennsylvania and Humphrey’s refusal to jump in the race. As far as I’m concerned it’s all over. Carter and Ford will oppose each other in the Presidential election. It was exciting for awhile. Remember when all those men were running for the Demo nod? The only ones left now besides Carter are Udall and Jackson. I really can’t say I’m sorry to see Jackson’s demise though. He learned a painful lesson in Pennsylvania; you can’t rely on the old line political machine. McGovern taught Humphrey that in ’72. Poor Mo Udall doesn’t stand a chance, and he really never did. The best he and Jackson can hope to accomplish is to remain in the race and try to win enough delegates to keep Carter from winning on the first ballot. If this happens things are apt to get exciting again. About the only major aspect left in this race is who will Carter pick to run for Vice-President? This is an area left up to conjecture. Humphrey? Church? Who knows? I personally feel that HHH would not accept that spot. One race that is gearing up that looks as if it might prove interesting is the one for James Buckley’s Senate seat. So far there are at least a half dozen candidates, including such people as Bella Abzug, Ramsey Clark, Pat Moynihan, Andrew Stein, et. aL. I’ll need some time to think about this one. Student Government Reorganizes Budget Student Government, in an effort to eliminate duplicating of programs and to make scheduling easier and more diversified, has reorganized its budget and fiscal policies. According to a report furnished to The Crier, Student Government has listed a number of reasons for the reorganization: (1) To combine and consolidate events under a student central committee (Activities and Programming Committee). (2) To eliminate duplication of programming. (3) To make scheduling easier and more diversified. (4) To make Major Organizations aware of events of other organizations. (5) To provide opposing viewpoints to issues scheduled. (6) To eliminate fiscal irresponsibility of organiza- tions. (7) To provide a central place where information on all events is made public. Student Government lists its organization proposals as: (1) Transfer contingency and party budgets for individual organizations and consolidate under one budget. (2) Arts and Convocations budget to be approved by Activities and Programming Committee. (3) Consolidate individual “Speaker” budgets under Activities and Programming Committee. Student Government has also prepared a 14-point list as a guideline for the Student Budget Committee. The list is available at the Student Government office in the basement of the Commons. Study Finds About 50% SUNY Students ‘Older' An analysis of the more than 350,000 students attending the State University of New York (SUNY) shows that 48.9 per cent of them are older than the formerly accepted college age. SUNY assumed the traditional age for students at its four-year colleges and universities to be under 23 years of age, and at its two-year colleges to be under 20. The study was based on 230,490 studying full-time and 123,670 studying part-time at SUNY’s 64 campuses. Part-time study continues to be popular with older students. About 60 per cent (104,961) of the students older than the traditional age are studying part-time, with 40 per cent (68,114) enrolled on a fulltime basis. The older-age group accounted for 29.5 per cent of all full-time students and 84.8 per cent of all part-time students. Of the 81,406 students studying part-time at two-year colleges, 68,859, or nearly 85 per cent of the total, are 20 or older. Of the 104,003 studying fulltime, 39,139, or 37.6 per cent, are more than 19. The total enrollment includes 51.9 per cent men and 48.1 per cent women, but a higher percentage of the older age groups are women. Of the more than 35,000 people 35 or older, 19,450 are women. Of the nearly 11500 students over 45, more than 7,200 are women. At the extreme ends of the age scale, the study found that 0.1 per cent are under 15 years of age and 0.2 per cent are 60 or older. Commissioner Bell Resigns, Cites Cost Of Sons in College U.S. Education Commissioner T. H. Bell has announced his resignation effective August 1 to become Utah’s commissioner of higher education and chief executive officer of the state’s board of regents. A major reason he accepted the new position, he said, is that it offers a 40 per cent increase in salary he will need to put his sons through college. Bell said in a letter to HEW Secretary F. David Mathews “As you know, I will soon have three sons entering college and the financial aspects of my employment will be particularly important over the next few years. With my oldest boy entering college next fall, there is no way I can support him with the income from my present position.” In his new position, Bell’s salary will be $48,600, compared to the $37,800 he earns as U.S. Education Commissioner. Peace Corps Budget Cut is Turned Down In an odd reversal of economics, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee has rejected a request from the Peace Corps, according to a report from Higher Education and National Affairs. Refusing the $14 million request cut, the committee approved an $81 million authorization bill for the Peace Corps in Fiscal 1977 -- the same amount it received this year. Senator George McGovern (D-S.D.) criticised Michael Balzano, director of the Action Agency which runs the Peace Corps, for requesting that its funds be cut to $67 million, since Balzano had just testified that the Corps was so popular it could meet only 70 per cent of the projects requested by developing countries. “If the Peace Corps is so popular, why are you cutting it back?” asked McGovern. “It strikes me as strange that when the economies come, they come in these kinds of programs.” Wins Luncheon For Boss DARLENE MASON, secretary to Student Activities Director Al Paparelli, won a luncheon for her boss as part of National Secretaries Week by writing a letter explaining why she thought he deserved to win the luncheon. Second winner was Carol Mckenzie, who won a luncheon for her boss, John Runyon, division chairman of Humanities. The contest was sponsored by WCBA. (Photo by Craig Miller). Lois Mark Stalvey: Stalvey And Her Books By DAVE SHARMAN If you attended the Lois Stalvey convocation, or read Sandie Eldred’s story about the convocation, most of what will appear in this interview will have already been exposed to you. However, that is no reason not to read on. This interview was done with Lois Stalvey and her son Spike. Ms. Stalvey is the author of The Education of a Wasp and Getting Ready (the education of a white family in intercity schools.) The interview started out with the Stalvey’s opinion of the audience at the April Mime Group to Appear As Part of Drama Day Images, a panto mine group from Ithaca, will appear on Campus Friday, May 7 at a convocation in the gymnasium at 1:00 p.m. They will be part of CCC’s first Drama Day. Pantomime is the conveying of ideas through use of body movements, gestures and facial expressions. No words or sounds are used. Claude Kipniss, one of the great American mines, has auditioned and chosen this group, and has choreographed some of the troupe’s work. Hank Moonschein, associate professor of English and theater, describes mime as “an expression in self, total concentration and total use of the body to communicate.” 28 convocation. Ms. Stalvey described the audience as responsive, open, sincere and interested. Spike added that “they were not a-fraid to show their ignorance.” Ms. Stalvey said that the questions asked were based on how they (the audience) could help solve the problem. Her answer was that people should face their own racism and go through a period of reeducation. Ms. Stalvey then told of the background of her first book, The Education of a Wasp. She wrote the book because of her own experiences. She didn’t really believe that racism existed in her suburb until she tried to help a black doctor move into the neighborhood. Soon her husband was transferred and later fired. She became frightened by racism and decided to share her findings with others. The background for Getting Ready is somewhat different than that of her first book. It is more about Spike’s experiences in school than her’s in the neighborhood. Spike attended a mostly black school. The faculty was very well integrated. Both Ms. Stalvey and Spike emphasize that the principal was black and very good. Spike sums up his situation as invaluable. Ms. Stalvey is concerned with the fact that the same teachers that gave Spike such a good education were “destroying” the black students. She said that the teachers were convinced that the blocks were inferior and thus convinced the blacks that they were inferior. She is most concerned about these cheated individuals coming out of high school angry. According to Lois Stalvey, “there is no place far enough away to hide from this anger.” Ms. Lois Stalvey has a book. The Education of a Woman, in the working. She expects it to be out in a-bout two years. What the hell, save your money, you can buy her other books too! You might as well, the books are worth it! THE CRIER THURSDAY, MA Y 6,1976 5 McEnroe Wins Humanities Grant A National Endowment for the Humanities grant has been awarded Robert E. McEnroe, Associate Professor of French/Spanish at Corning Community College. Prof. McEnroe will aL tend a summer seminar at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on “The French Enlightenment in the American Revolution” between June 21 and August 13,1976. The seminar will draw from the entire range of French and American Literature of the second half of the eighteenth century which is relevant to the general topics of enlightenment and political theory. The Summer Seminars for College Teachers are intended for teachers in the undergraduate colleges and in the two-year colleges who are concerned primarily with improving their knowledge of the subjects they teach. The college teachers are expected to participate fully in the work of the seminar and complete all seminar as- Robert E. McEnroe signments in return for the opportunity to work with distinguished scholars in their fields at institutions with libraries suitable for advanced study. Prof. McEnroe joined the faculty at CCC as an instructor in the Humanities Division in 1966 and presently holds the rank of associate professor. He completed both undergraduate and graduate work at State University of New York at Albany. by SANDIE ELDRED “Any white person raised in America has got to be racist.” So observed Lois Mark Stalvey at convocation Thursday, April 28, in the Main Dining Room of the Commons. The convocation was part of the continuing program at CCC to combat racism. Mrs. Stalvey, accompanied by her son, Spike, said it is the responsibility of the individual to “exorcise” their own racist attitudes. “First you must recognize and face your racism,” she said, “and then begin to wipe it out.” Lois Stalvey has written two books, “Education of a WASP” and “Getting Ready.” Her first book, “Education of a WASP,” dealt with her own coming to grips with her personal racism. “Getting Ready” concerned racism in our education system. It dealt particularly with her son Spike’s experiences of attending an all-black school. At the convocation Stalvey talked about her initial fear at sending Spike to the all-black school “My first reaction as I saw my son disappear into a crowd of tall, black students with gang rings in their ears was “the devil with liberalism, I want my kid out of there.’ ’ But then she realized that she had taught him that color didn’t matter, and that it was time to let her actions prove that she believed her teachings. Spike spent three and one-half years at the school and both he and his mother describe it as a rewarding experience. Mrs. Stalvey told of her horror in realizing that the history taught in our schools is “white-washed.” She said that few people know that James Audubon's mother was black or that the Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the states that were rebelling during the Civil War. According to Stalvey, this had about the same effect as President Ford today making a policy statement about the internal affairs of China. Another misconception Americans have, said Stalvey, is about Thomas Jefferson. ‘Thomas Jefferson could be called the ‘father of racism!” she said, “He couldn’t square wanting liberty for himself and still, being a business man and plantation owner, wanting to own men and women as slaves. So he said, “there are different races. White will have liberty, the other races are in- Major Organizations Sponsor 'Celebrate Spring' Keg Today Admission Free - - Everyone Invited The majority of the major student organizations on campus, including The Crier, NORML, Activities and Programming Committee, Student Government, and the Veteran’s Association have combined their efforts and are sponsoring a “Celebrate Spring” keg. The keg, which will be in progress when The Crier is distributed on cam- pus, starts at noon and is expected to end at 5 p.m. today. The main purpose of the keg is to generate greater cooperation between the major organizations on campus, introduce new officers to the student body, and say goodbye to departing students. As of this printing, The Elvira Marphite Blues Band has agreed to perform at the keg. Other groups are expected to perform. Plans for these other groups are still in the planning stage. The keg is open to everyone from the college community. Admission is free and everyone is invited to share in the celebration. Elmira Police Chief Raises Objections - - Bars NORML From Law Observance Days CCC’s NORML organization was barred from setting up an information table at The Mall in Horseheads during Law Observance Days, April 20, 30, and May 1. Reasons for the cancellation were given as objections from the Elmira Police Department. NORML’s participation was first suggested by Lois Mark Stalvey: Time For Wise Actions Lois Stalvey and son, Spike ferior.’ He made blacks 3/5 of a person.” At one time Stalvey worked as a teacher’s aide to the eighth grade at Spike’s all-black school. She said she was appalled to discover that the same teachers who had taught her son to read had also helped prevent the black students from the same knowledge. She said, “There is no place far enough away for whites to run from the anger of minority people now graduating from schools, when they realize how they are being robbed.” Spike said that he never Commencement Information Log Many students are asking questions about graduation activities, and the big day is drawing near (May 30). Here’s the way it looks now: Caps and Gowns must be ordered. If you plan to participate in Commencement, get measured at the College Bookstore NOW. Absolute deadline for these orders is May 14. Letters have been mailed to this year’s graduates at your HOME address. Special thanks to Mary Kay Cipolla and friends for all their work. By JENI PAQUETTE Barbecue for graduates, faculty, staff and alumni will be held on the last day of finals (hallelujah!) (You said it — Crier Editor). Entertainment by a terrific rock group from England: “ZAP!”. Hamburgers, hot dogs, salad and beer will be prepared by Student Run Business (volunteers needed). Also: Bruce Vanderpool will play. Ushers will be needed. Must be freshmen and they will be invited to the Barbecue. Information Meetings: All graduates planning to participate in the activities should attend these meetings. There are forms that must be filled out and questions we can answer. Dates and times for the meetings are Thursday, May 6 at one pm. in N221, and Friday, May 7 at one p.m. in the Science Amphitheater. If you did not receive a letter from the Commencement Committee, they are available at the Activities Office in the Commons. noticed any difference in skin color when he was in school. “I’m glad my parents made the decision to leave the suburbs and stand by their convictions,” he said. It kept him from having to resolve the conflicts between their words and their actions. He advised that people should not “go out with the idea of ■ making a black friend, but a friend.” Lois Stalvey left the audience with this final thought “Men and nations act wisely only when all other alternatives have been exhausted. I think that time has come in America.” NORML Plans Keg For Ned Semester NORML would like to plan for a keg with bands for the Fall 1976 semester, to take place during the first week of classes. There are already some entertainers willing to per-. form at the keg. Anyone wishing to help plan this affair should attend the regular NORML meetings on Wednesdays at One. The sign up sheet for the annual picnic is in the NORML office. Anyone who is planning to attend must sign up soon. Hugh Wheeler, manager of the Horseheads Mall The CCC NORML group was prepared to set up their display when Elmira Police Chief Thomas Donnells told the Mall management “The Elmira Police won’t be there if the Corning group is.” The manager of the Mall contacted George Lamp-man, NORML member, and expressed his regrets. He told NORML that he could see no alternative but to cancel NORML’s participation in the three-day event. Wheeler offered NORML and the Horseheads Criminal Justice Society the opportunity of setting up their information and display table at some other time in the future. Comments from members of CCC’s NORML organization were that the Elmira police were being narrow-minded on the matter. NORML said in a letter to the editor (See below) that they should have raised their objections at the start. Plans are now being made for NORML to set up a literature and information table at The Mall on May 8. The CCC organiza-tion is soliciting help from Coming students. NORML has announced that pamphlets are available at the NORML office in the Commons for students who are working on projects involving information on drugs. The NORML office is located in the room formerly occupied by the Vets Club. Letter To Editor: A decision by Law Enforcement officials put a sudden end to NORML’s plans for a display table at the Mall last weekend. It all began when Hugh Wheeler, Manager of the Horseheads Mall, suggested that NORML be part of “Law Observance Day” a-long with seven area police agencies. Planning meetings were held with all participants and everything was fine -- until Elmira Police Chief Tomas Donnells issued an ultimatum. His statement was to the effect - ‘The Elmira Police won’t be there if the Coming group is.” Apparently, all of the Law Enforcement agencies agreed that NORML’s presence was not appropriate at the Law Observance event. NORML’s reaction was that the police are being narrow-minded and should have raised their objections at the start NORML has tentatively rescheduled their display at the Mall for May 8th. Information for this article was taken from a story by Chet Lunner in the Star Gazette. Jeni Paquette 6 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MA Y 6,1976 Two Wars With Two New Weapons Honors Students, Faculty Visit St. John’s College At the outset of the war with Germany in 1914, the British and French were hard pressed. The Germans were well prepared for war along with their chief ally Austria. The Germans were using a new weapon that was to be its first real test in combat, and made a significant change in sea warfare; the submarine. British and French shipping were suffering tremendous losses to these undersea dragons and it was evident they would lose the war if a deterrent couldn’t be found. Supplies were running short, both on the battle front and at home. Ordinary surface vessels had no effect as they couldn’t fight what they couldn’t see. It wasn’t until the Germans started torpedoing neutral along with enemy shipping that the United States took a hand. Even before war was declared, American destroyers started escorting merchantmen. It was late in 1917, after we had entered the war that the concept of convoy was initiated. German submarines no longer had the run of the seas and the amount of sinkings dropped dramatically. These convoys escorted by American destroyers equipped with a new listening device called the hydrophone soon took a large toll of the German submarine fleet American battleships: New York, Arkansas, Wyoming, Florida and Texas were also used in convoys to stand off the German surface raiders. These were merchantmen that were disguised and equipped with heavy guns and usually displayed neutral flags. Although there were no significant surface battles involving the American Naval forces it was proven these scrappy little destroyers were the new arm for future wars and would be used not only in antisubmarine warfare and shore bombardment, but as anti-aircraft ships as well, and in general for all the dirty work the larger capital ships could not perform. World War I also saw the introduction of aircraft as a major weapon but it was not used extensively at sea until the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the Japanese on December 7, 1941. Al- though airplanes were credited with turning the tide of battle in World War II, surface action was still a vital part of stemming the influx of Japanese invasion forces in the Pacific. Planes could fly and fight by day but without the new radar they could not do any damage at night. When the Americans went on the offensive after their victory at Midway, the Japanese tried moving troops and supplies among the small islands at night. The battle that broke the back of the Japanese fleet came in a small unknown stretch of water known as “The Slot” among the Solomon Islands. The enemy wanted desperately to reinforce their beleaguered army on Guadalcanal. On the night of November 12,1942, the Japanese decided to strike the Americans with everything available. They came down “the Slot” with transports loaded with troops and escorted by two battleships, one of which was the most powerful ever built, the Yamato, 4 cruisers and 8 destroyers, not knowing their position had been sighted by a friendly shore spotter. “The Slot” being only 14 miles wide made a perfect hiding place the shallow draft American destroyers. The commander of these small but deadly vessels was Captain Arleigh Burke, later to become the Chief of Naval Operations and a four star admiral. Four destroyers were deployed on each side of “the Slot” with all lights out and their engines shut down. No sound was to be heard. The men were tense and determined in their mission on that dark and overcast night. It was so still, night birds on the islands could be heard calling. The stillness was broken at about 2:30 in the morning as the sounds of Japanese destroyers passed. Then came the transports but the Americans remained silent as they were after bigger game. Next came the bulky outline of the heavy cruiser passing only four miles from the first destroyer. Still the Americans waited, the tension building in the men like passion for a woman. Then in the darkness, barely visible came the bulky and high superstructure of the Yamato. No land orders were shouted, no sirens or claxtons were heard, but the word went silently to the four torpedo tubes mounted amid ship of the destroyers, “Fire all tubes.” With a blast of compressed air suddenly released the torpedoes hit the water and went swiftly to their targets. Two of these swift running “fish” found their target and the Yamato shuddered under the explosions. Two torpedoes passed astern of her and hit a Japanese destroyer that sank immediately. The Yamato was severely damaged and turned immediately in retreat. The Japanese still hadn’t spotted the American destroyers and assumed they were under a concentrated submarine attack. In the confusion that followed the Japanese had two collisions and damaged three cruisers and disabled one of their own destroyers. The battleship Yuska realizing the confusion was blocking her path of retreat decided to run “The Slot” along with a light cruiser and two destroyers. They were met at the exit by the three American heavy cruisers, Baltimore, Chicago and Vincenes a-long with the Australian cruiser Canberra. In the ensuing battle the Yuska was sunk along with the two destroyers and the badly damaged Japanese cruiser escaped. The Americans lost the Chicago and the other cruisers were damaged. Meanwhile back in “the Slot,” Captain Bruke brought out his destroyers and began working over the damaged Japanese fleet with surface guns. Coming within point blank range these little ships pounded the Japanese for over an hour. When the Americans finally withdrew only the Japanese battleship Yamato and two crippled destroyers had escaped. As dawn broke the dive bombers and torpedo planes from the aircraft carrier Hornet finished the job on the defenseless transports and destroyers. When the battle was over on November 13, the Japanese had lost one battleship, three cruisers, seven destroyers and four transports loaded with over a division of soldiers. The battleship Yamato was out of service for over a year and a half but never saw action a-gain, also damaged was one cruiser and two destroyers. The American losses were one cruiser, one destroyer sunk, and two cruisers and two destroyers damaged. Guadalcanal was secured three months later and American forces with morale high marched on island by island all the way to Tokyo. This battle broke the Japanese fleet and they never again challenged the Americans to surface action unless they were caught in their own web. Tech Raffle Winner The winner of the Tech Club raffle drawing, held April 14, is John Voorhees of Alpine, New York. The winning ticket was drawn by Mary Krebs, secretary in the Science Division, from a coffee pot held by Tech Club President Bruce Schoonover. Voorhees prize will be a Knight one-sweep oscilloscope. Tech students have already bid $65 for the oscilloscope in the event that Voorhees might want to sell it. Tech Club sold 680 50 cent tickets for a total Of $340. The money will be used to help finance a Tech Club sponsored trip to Philadelphia. Students and faculty involved with the Honors Program visited St. John’s College in Annapolis, Md. to examine the forum used by that school. On April 8 Roger Sampson, Kathy Bennett, Kathy Madison, Dave Mikel, Al and Jo Poole, Tom and Laura McGrath, and Helen Werner left for the three day visit which also included a stop in Washington. At St. Johns they attended several classes and looked for ideas to bring back to CCC’s Honors forum. St. Johns is run on a Great Books Curriculum. Courses involve mainly reading and discussion. If a student were taking a math course, he would read Pythagoras, Euclid, Pascal and other mathematicians rather than entirely concern himself with the Crier Editor Breaks Window Complaining about defective equipment, the editor-in-chief reported recently that he had broken a window in the offices of The Crier, located in Trailer 4 behind the Commons. Gene Mullen, Crier editor-in-chief, told associates that he was trying to crank a window shut in the trailer, and one of the brackets came loose. “The metal frame bent, but the glass didn’t,” said Mullen. The trailer is one of three left out of four purchased by the college as temporary housing. They have been temporary for a number of years now. Mullen’s first remarks when the window broke are unprintable. mechanics involved. All courses are taught in this unique manner. In Washington the forum visited the Smithsonian, the National Gallery of Art and the Hirschom Art Museum. They also saw the play “Dandelion Wine” by Ray Bradbury. The Honors Program at Coming is less than one semester old. It involves working on a project and a two hour forum each week, projects underway by current members involve such diverse topics as over-population, pornography, economics and religion, Thoreau and root canals. Student members are very excited about the program. One reason is the program’s flexibility. It can be tailored to meet the needs and desires of the student members. They feel that the projects represent a challenge that they have not encountered elsewhere at CCC. When they have been finished they will become part of the permanent collection in the Learning Resource Center. The two hour forum provides a base for an interchange of ideas. The students each make a presentation of their project. In addition, the students have also decided that they would like to read classic literature and the forum will provide a place for discussion. The minimum qualification for entrance into the Honors Program is a 3.5 gpa. Any student who feels they would like to meet the challenge offered by the program can get more information from any of the above mentioned people. ELMIRA THE CRIER, THURSDAY, MAY 6,1976 7 College Transfer Notes By ALAN FAIRBANKS Transfer Counselor CRIER Most students who have given thought to transferring to a four-year branch of the State University of New York (SUNY) are a-ware that State budgetary considerations coupled with an increasing number of applicants to these institutions is making it more difficult this year for transferring students to get accepted. It has come to my attention, however, that many students feel that the only alternative to a SUNY institution is going to an “expensive” private college, and that the cost is prohibitive. In the interest of clarifying this situation and perhaps presenting some hitherto unconsidered alternatives to our students, I have recently completed a Cost Comparison Study which portrays the differences in costs for attending various categories of four-year colleges on an annual basis. For the purposes of comparison, institutions were broken down into four categories; SUNY Campuses, Private Colleges with No Religious Affiliation, Independent Colleges Which Are Church Related, and “Other State” State Universities. Approximately 15 colleges were arbitrarily selected in each of the latter three categories to be included in the study, and in the first category all four-year SUNY campuses were included. For each category of colleges, three cost figures were considered; tuition and fees, tuition and fees plus room and board, and estimated other costs. These three cost figures were then averaged for the sample of schools selected as representative of each of the four categories of colleges. In this way both the range of each cost figure and the average was obtained. The following is a brief look at the results of the study. The cost labeled “Estimated Other” generally means the total of expenses such as books, supplies, etc. (It does not include transportation expenses). This cost varied widely between individual schools, but varied negligibly between the categories of colleges. The average for the total 52 schools in the study was $543 per academic year (two semesters). Of the four categories of colleges whose costs were compared, it comes as no surprise that for New York State residents, the four-year branches of SUNY, on the average, are the least expensive route to completing the junior and senior years for the bachelor’s degree. The average cost of tuition plus room and board came out to be $2,253 per academic year. This figure is based on the new announced tuition of $900 for the junior and senior years in the 1976-77 school year, and the average room and board charge at the various four-year SUNY campuses. The costs below are for the other three categories of colleges and are based on figures obtained from the seventh edition of the Comparative Guide to American Colleges (1975) published by Harper and Row, Publishers. It should be acknowledged that with college costs rising almost every year at many institu- tions, some of the costs quoted in the above guide and used in this study are probably out of date by the time of publication. Using only this one source, however, is probably one of the most expedient and accurate ways of establishing realistic cost comparisons for the various categories of colleges. The group of private colleges with no religious affiliation (e.g. Syracuse, Elmira, and Stanford) were selected from various sections of the United States. The average cost of tuition and fees plus room and board was $4493 per academic year, and ranged from $3,400 to $5,345. The group of independent colleges which are church related (e.g. Houghton, Notre Dame, and Duke) were also selected from various sections of the U.S. The average cost of tuition and fees plus room and board at these schools was $3,435 per academic year and ranged from $2,930 to $4,280. The least expensive category of colleges which can be viewed as an alternative to continuing your education within the SUNY system is other state’s state universities and colleges. Although attending these schools as a non-resident does cost considerably more than is charged a resident of that state, it still is an educational bargain. Some of the schools in the sample representing this category were University of California, North Carolina State, Michigan State, and University of Kentucky — not too bad an array of schools. The average cost of tuition and fees plus room and board was $2,847 per academic year for non-residents, and ranged from $2,125 to $3,477. This represents an increase in cost of about $600 per year compared to attending a branch of SUNY for the junior and senior years, or a 26% increase. A little arithmetic shows that the average private college with no religious affiliation costs $2,240 per year more than attending a branch of SUNY for the junior and senior years for an increase of 99% -- pretty close to double! It should be noted that the cost ranges quoted a-bove do overlap, some state universities cost a non-resident as much or more than some of the less expensive private colleges. It also is a fact that some state universities cost a non-resident less than going to “his own” State University of New York! Id est, there are alternatives if you can’t find a transfer opening in SUNY, and there are educational bargains if you search them out. The important thing is that you consider all aspects of any envisioned transfer; e.g. if you want to go home for frequent visits, think twice before you plan to attend a distant college; the above costs don’t include travel. If you want more information on the cost comparison study such as the schools considered and their individual tuition charges; or if you want to check out the cost of attending any non SUNY college, stop by my office and we’ll see what can be found.

(Photo by Jerry Payne) AROUND THE GYM By GREG TRANTER Sports Editor This past semester athletically has been quite a disappointment in men’s sports, but a success in women’s sports. First off, both the men’s wrestling team and the men’s basketball squad had trouble keeping enough men to play. The grappling squad started the season as a very highly touted team. They ended with a very disappointing 4-11 record and only three wrestlers. The basketball team started the season with four straight wins and were being proclaimed another 22-6 team. Coach Wayne Kenner ran into many problems as numerous played flunked off the team and a couple others were let go for not coming to practice. The squad ended up 10-17 and only eight players. Another disappointment has been the baseball team So far the squad has won only one of nine games and his a 7.80 earned run average. The tennis and LaCross^ teams were disbanded because of lack of interest. Which just shows how much apathy there is on this campus. The most successful team was the bowlers. The men’s bowling team won 9 and lost one in dual meets. They captured the PYAC and Region III championships and they were fourth in the entire nation. The women’s basketball and bowling teams were both very successful. The B-ball squad won 15 and lost only five behind the tutelage of Coach Hugh Fullerton and the brilliant play of Donna Dayton. The B-ballers also won the Elmira Invitational Tournament. The bowling team was successful as they won six and lost three. Overall the semester was not bad but it could have been a banner year had it not been for the apathy on the part of the athletes on this campus. Next year could be a great year for CCC sports, but for it to be, the apathy is going to have to be switched to desire and willingness to work. Until next time this is Greg Tranter rounding third and heading home. Baron B-Ball Camp Open July 12-13 The Red Baron Basketball Day Camp will be open to both boys and girls during the July 11-13 session, Coach Wayne Kenner of the Corning Community College Red Barons said. “During the past few years there has been an increased interest on the part of girls to play competitive sports. We would like to provide an opportunity for them to learn the basic skills and fundamentals of basketball while exposing them to discipline and personal training habits so necessary to be successful on or off the court,” Kenner said. The camp will run from 9 a.m. to noon daily Monday through Friday at the Gym. Individuals will be responsible for providing their own transportation. The $40 tuition includes instruction, a regulation basketball, a Red Baron “T” shirt, awards, and insurance. Each Player will be provided with towels and a locker. Coach Kenner cautioned players to carry their sneakers to camp and not wear them. Kenner, in his sixth year as head basketball coach at CCC, has seen three of his Baron teams invited to Region 3 tournament play. He is 100-66 in overall coaching for the six years. Wayne Beardslee, varsity basketball coach at Campbell High School, a-long with current college basketball players will round out the staff. Further information can be obtained at the Division of Continuing Education Office or by calling or writing Coach Kenner. The Coming Community College Red Barons led by Coach Dave “Yogi” Clark got off on the winning track last weekend. The Red Barons, plagued by defensive lapses and pitching deficiencies are nonetheless in Penn-York Conference games and 1-8 overall. The Red Barons took on the highly touted Monroe Community College’s Tribunes in CCC’s home opener. Coming was shut out as Monroe scored two touchdowns 14-0. As of April 22, Monroe was ranked 17th in the nation and they displayed their awesome hitting attack against CCC’s lefty southpaw Paul Novak. Monroe’s Clay Johnson opened the floodgates as he smashed a towering 3-run home run which landed in Denison Parkway. With the help of six Red Baron mis-cues, Monroe tallied 11 more runs to finish their rout. CCC’s nine managed only six hits as Mike Warner led the way with two. Friday, April 30, Region 3 powerhouse Broome College’s Hornets invaded Denison Park and conquered four Red Baron hurlers. CCC’s Mark McLaine, Mike Warner, southpaw Denis Sweeney and Marc “Moe” Malandra combined, were battered for 17 runs on 17 hits. CCC’s porous defense then came into play as they committed eight errors and a host of mental mistakes. Corning managed four runs on nine hits. Dan Bennettt, Denis Sweeney and Greg Tranter each banged out two hits to lead CCC’s hitting attack. After the third inning Broome scored 12 runs as it turned out to be a rout right throughout. Broome’s Joe Cahill had four hits and catcher Mario Patano took a CCC hurler “downtown.” Mark McLaine (0-2) was CCC’s starter and loser. Saturday, May 1, christened the opening of the PYAC (Penn-York Conference) for Corning as Hilbert Junior College traveled to Corning. Hilbert won the first game of the scheduled doubleheader 7-6. Corning, playing inspired ball fell behind early 7-1, but they came storming back under inclement playing conditions to score four runs in the fifth and one in the sixth to close within one. In the fifth CCC could have pulled out a victory but the Red Barons left the bases loaded. Errors again proved to be the cause as CCC’s starting pitcher Greg Tranter allowed only three earned runs while striking out eight. Tranter also was CCC’s leading RBI man as he drove in two tallies. In the second game CCC came out on the winning end 1-0 in a rain shortened contest. Greg Tranter rapped a double and scored on Mike Warner’s single for the game’s only run. Starting pitcher Pat MacAuley was credited with the Red Barons first victory ever while going the distance. Sunday, May 2, Coming traveled to Buffalo to tackle Erie Community College in a big Penn-York Conference doubleheader. Again the Red Barons went (town to defeat to the undefeated Erie team. Game one saw Erie pitcher John Eisen-hart dominate CCC’s batters. Eisenhart gave up five singles and struck out ten. CCC scored in the second to take a 1-0 lead as Marc Malandra singled, Dan O’Mara sacrificed and Malandra scored on Mike Warner’s hit. Erie, however, tied it at one apiece in the bottom of the second. Corning came back to tally another rim as Dan Bennett reached on an error and scored on a single by Greg Tranter. That ended the Red Barons offense the remainder of the day. Erie put the game away as they bunched in five runs in the bottom of the third off started and loser Paul Novack (0-3). Joey Sperliger highlighted the attack with a booming home run. The final line score: Erie 7, CCC 2. In the second game Ed Petzer twirled a nifty one hit shutout. Petzer was given a nine run bulge to work with as he fanned twelve Red Baron Batters. CCC’s first sacker, Denis Sweeney, got the only hit of game two. Mark McLaine was the loser for Corning, dropping his record to 0-3. Baron Bits: CCC’s center-fielder, defensive ace Kerry Leipold has been placed on the 21-day disabled list due to a broken toe. The top hitters are Denis Sweeney .363, Mike Warner .307, and Greg Tranter .250. Sweeney is leading the team in walks with 10 and Tranter is tops in RBI’s with four. Team batting average is .190 and the team ERA is an unbelievable 7 B0. Greg Tranter laces a double in action against Broome.
