A CCC Student Publication Vol. 17, No. 28, May 19,1977 CCC Photogs Display Works The Learning Resources Center is now featuring a photographic display of eight students in the class “Basic Black and White Photography” taught by Herb Carson during the Mini-Semester in January. 1977. The display is titled “Light-C amera-Emuls ion” and contains works by John Conklin, Helen Dartt, Louise Davis, Robert Kra-marik, Brian Loucks, Stephen O’Rourke, Jeane Wheaton, and Alan Winslow. The course was designed to introduce the students to the basic theories and principles of black and white photography and provided hands-on experience in processing and printing photographic images. Several projects were assigned to give the students opportunities to practice us- ing proper techniques. These assignments included photographing, processing, printing, and mounting the print showing the concept of “Love,” a portrait .using studio lighting, and a photographic essay on a subject of the student’s choice. The prints in this display are examples from these assignments and will be shown through May 20. 1977. A new show featuring photographic essays by Kim Evans and Robert Kramarik will be on display beginning May 23, 1977. These prints were produced to meet the photographic essay project requirement for the “Basic Black and White Photography” course. This show will conclude following graduation on June 5,1977. Racism/SexismPetition Editor’s Note: The following is a petition that being circulated on campus by several concerned students. Being concerned with quality education and providing service to the student body and community. We the undersigned students and faculty, do hereby reaffirm our request that Donald H. Hangen, President of the Coming Community College, make public his plans and programs for dealing with rac- ism and sexism, both on campus and in the community. These plans and programs should include both dates and time frames for implementation so that progress on this vital issue can be made visible to all, while assuring the college’s commitment. We also call on the Board of Trustees and Faculty Association to reaffirm their commitment on this issue and assist President Hangen in all ways possible to continue the program that Coming Community College has been instrumental in conceiving and instituting. At present Corning is a leader in this field receiving inquiries from other colleges and institutions regarding our racism and sexism program. It is not now the time to forget CCC’s commitment before the issues in question are resolved. Three years ago the faculty’s educational policies Graduates Return Coming Community College graduates return to serve the communities that supported their education. This is evident from a follow-up study of CCC graduates. Telephone interviews were held with more than one-third of the College’s 1971 graduates. Of the results. Dr. Gun-nars Reimanis, Director of Educational and Institutional Research, said, “This probably produces an increasingly more im- portant economic impact on the communities with each graduating class.” From the 1971 graduates, for example, Reimanis said, 74 percent of the men and 69 percent of the women still reside in the CCC service area (Steuben, Chemung and Schuyler Counties). From CCC’s first class of I960, 70 percent of all graduates remain in the three county area. Another significant factor emerging from the study concerns the employ- ment rate. In the CCC service area 94 percent of the male graduates sampled are employed. Of the women, 71 percent are holding down positions. Women graduates without children under the age of 12 years, however, show a 95 percent employment rate. This is far above the employment rate of adults in the Elmira-Coming area which is 88 percent according to the latest Department of Labor Figures. committee expressed their concern over these issues and at that time laid the ground work for creating a comprehensive racism and sexism program for the benefit of both the student body and the community which the college serves. To be specific we are concerned because of the following: 1. The racism and sexism program director’s position has not been made full time. Dr. Frederick and the college made the commitment of creating a fulltime racism and sexism position. President Hangen has changed this commitment even though he originally stated he would not do so. 2. President Hangen took six months to fill the vacancy of affirmative action officer and when he filled this vacancy he did so from a list containing only one applicant. 3. Of the positions for dean being considered, no minority or women candidates were selected for interview even though some of these candidates were reported to be eminenently qualified. 4. President Hangen has finally stated that he is going to Institutionalize the responsibility of racism and sexism programs under the dean of Student Services and Instruction, while eliminating the program directors position. These four items cited above are proof as we consider them, that President Hangen is reneged on his commitment on these controversial issues. We are not asking for more than what President Hangen ori-gionally promised. And that is a firm commitment on racism and sexism according to Title IX. We at this time are not ready to stand aside while President Hangen institutionalizes those issues into oblivion. Sky Diving Tech Guild Elections Held There will be a sky diving clinic this weekend.

And Jim Brancale-one, a freelance writer who has been working at the agency for the past month on Tampax, has written and illustrated a book about it. It’s called “Man With A Broken Heart,” and he’s offering it to employees for $2.95 (retail $3.50). Jim’s book (it’s not a fairy tale; he writes from experience) was originally in the form of a diary. After two years of unsuccessful attempts to get it published, and unhappy experiences with agents, Jim revised the diary into its present form and published it himself. In the past year, he has sold over 1500 copies, mostly by word of mouth. The task of self-publishing was no mean feat, Jim explained, “but everything I had ever learned at ad agencies - productions, bidding, etc. -- came back and was a tremendous help.” To quote the critics: Marya Mannes - “This book is not only a universal experience but a visual delight.” Sam Julty, author of MSP (Male Sexual Performance) - “A familiar story to many of us men. But, told in a way which makes it welcome as news that a war has ended.” 2 THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, MA Y19, 1977 Good Luck ’77 Graduates In two weeks Coming Community College will graduate its Class of 1977. Every graduate has different plans for the future, some will transfer, some will do both. The Crief staff, which itself contains may sophomores, would like to take its turn in wishing the CCC Class of ’77 the very best of luck. It’s a tough world that many of these graduates will be entering, but after making it this far the next steps should come easier. We think that all the graduates should take tune to reflect on their educa- By SANDIE ELDREI) Editor-m-Chief tion at CCC. After this reflection we suggest that if you think that change is needed in any area, let someone know. You are alumni of this college and we think that it is your responsibility and the college’s opportunity to receive your experienced input. It is through your interest that CCC can continue to grow and meet the needs of its future students. Because we think that you, the graduates of this college, have a responsibility and should have a con- cern, for CCC we strongly suggest that you join the Alumni Association. For a small fee you can become a lifetime member of the CCCAA. and you can become an active part of the college’s future. If you are interested, we urge you to contact the Office of Alumni Affairs, second floor, the Classroom Building. Once Again — Congratulations Graduates. You have worked hard (most of you) for this day, enjoy it and the best of luck in the future. The End Of The Countdown That moment has finally arrived. I sit here now writing my last Trailer Talk as Editor-in-Chief of the Crier and as a student at Coming Community College. It is a time I have long awaited with anticipation. At the same time, it is a moment that I have dreaded. Last week I told you some of the things I won’t miss. There are many more. I won’t miss the long, 45 mile round trip I have had to make every day for two years. I won’t miss trying to juggle the Crier’s unmanageable budget (are we out of the red yet Donnalyn?). I certainly won’t miss the trailer, with all its clutter and garbage. Enough of the bad. I can’t begin to list the good things that I will miss when I leave CCC. I have grown so much since the day I walked on this campus. Way back then (it seems like decades) I knew absolutely no one on this campus. I could walk a-round all day without seeing a familiar face. Now I’m lucky if I can make it from the trailer to the restroom in the Commons without someone corner- ing me. But, I love it, and I owe it all to the Crier. If I had not become involved in this newspaper I would undoubtedly have had a much higher gpa, but I would never have enjoyed the two years as much. My position with the Crier has brought me into contact with nearly every facet of life at CCC from janitors to Presidents and from student leaders to security officers. What I will remember the most about CCC can be summed up in one word -people. Long after I have forgotten the beauty of the view I will remember the smiles on the faces of the many people I have met here. Naturally, most of the people I will remember, I will remember because of the Crier. This is not to say that I haven’t valued my classroom experience, but I don’t think I would have grown half as much as a person if I hadn’t gotten involved in student activities. I will long remember the people, and I find it difficult now to put into words my feelings upon having to leave these people, I can’t mention everyone who has been special to me in these two years. It wouldn’t be fair to try. I do feel that I must mention some people though, and I hone that the rest will un- derstand that out of sight doesn’t mean out of mind. One person who has been important to me here at CCC is someone without whose help I could not have survived my past year as Editor-in-Chief. He has always been there when I needed him. From all the moaning and groaning he has heard me do, he must think I have had the most unhappy year of my life. But he has never put me down and he has always helped me discover answers that were already there. I just needed his warm hug and gentle questioning to mako me realize that I was blinding myself to those answers. This man is A1 Paparelli. It is his job to direct student activities, but he makes it more than a job and I thank him for that. I have made many friends at Corning, and they are all special to me, but I would like to mention two of these friends who have stayed with me from almost the beginning and who will always have particularly large spots in my memories. The first person is a guy who I met my very first day at CCC. I met him here in the Crier trailer. W e were both fledgling reporters then: since I have become editor and he became my first Managing Editor. Dave Sharman, you will al- ways evoke memories of the good times I have had here, from Tequila Sunrises (I’ll never forgiVe you for them) to tickling fights .(Dave’s the only person I know who is more ticklish than I am). Dave is goifig to Boston this summer to continue his study in music. I wish him the very best of luck and I thank him for all the good times. Don’t forget to write, Dave, and let me know if Boston has any grenadine. The other special person has been more than a friend: she has been my resident counselor. I don’t know what I would have done the last few months without my secretary/psy-chiatrist, Kim Mears. She must have helped me through more Friday afternoons than anyone else. She has sat for hours over hot fudge sundaes and hot roast beef subs listening to my tales of woe. She has never complained when I’ve dragged her down Bridge Street with me for a “fun” Saturday night out, that usually ended in another long tale of woe. Kim you’re a special person. I hope I have always taken time to listen to you, I know I haven’t. Kim is transferring to Buffalo and I’m sure I’ll see her a few weekends next year. I know I will miss those talks. Let’s get together a lot this summer, Kim. Want to walk over to the bathroom with me? What else can I say? There is one special thanks I’d like to make and that’s to Dr. Hangen. I’d like to thank him for the patience, understanding and openness he has shown me this year. We disagree philosophically about some things, but I believe that he is truly a beautiful, loving person. I am happy I have had the chance to work with him, and I hope he has enjoyed it as much as I have. That nearly brings us to the end of the end. I can’t express my thoughts right now. It is very hard for me to leave my “baby,” but I know Ric will take good care of it. I’d like to wish Ric the very best of luck. I hope he makes it through the entire year. If he can survive all the meetings on top of meetings on top of meetings he’ll be okay. Have fun Ric. I’d like to thank everyone again and for those of you who don’t know, or maybe wonder what I’m going to do after graduation (if you don’t care — STOP HERE), I’m transferring to St. Bonaventure University where I will major in --surprise, surprise - journalism. Thank you one and all. Thank you CCC for a very educational, very happy two years. I love you all, truly. I have enjoyed every minute (almost) and I will always remember the Crier. Good-bye. P.S. Can I come back next year? ©*N*li* MANS OPINION By RIC SMITH - MANAGING EDITOR Hasta Luego y Vay Con Dios This is my.last column this year. What a brilliant statement. This year at CCC has been a stone-cold rip. If I could bottle apathy and sell it as the miracle drug of the century I would make an outrageous fortune. In too many ways CCC is the “High School on the Hill.” The cliques from the local high schools are transferred intact to this institution of higher learning. I would like to commend, however, the dedicated students who have participated in the various extracurricular activities offered on this campus. My particular affection is for the staff of the Crier (naturally). The Crier is an organization and a paper, but, most of all, it is people. The editorial board has never made and can never make the claim that they are perfect or know everything. We are in the strange position of having enough ego and-arrogance to try and convince you, the reader, that we know what we are talking about. I would also like to announce the members of my editorial board for next year. Filling the spot of Managing Editor will be John T. Olcott. John was selected for his wit, wisdom, and the $25 he gave me to give him the job. Dave Swan will be Photo Editor, after he shoots some “exotic” photos for me. They will be on sale next semester for discerning connoisseurs. Ted Nickerson will be Sports Editor if he doesn’t kill himself over the summer on his motorcycle. And last but not least (what a tired term), Sue Muccigros-so should be Art Editor. This is it folks. Just think, you can spend the whole summer without having to read the mutter -ings of me, your rude, crude, and socially unac- ceptable Managing Editor. Hasta Luego y Vay Con Dios.

If, however, the writer of that condescending epistle left his or her name unknown, I would not blame that person a bit. I have often wondered why anybody expects a group of college students in a lounge area at lunch time to be quiet just be^ cause someone happens to be playing at the time. If the performance were in an area specifically for performing, then I would consider those individuals who were talking to be rude. However, the entertainment was taking place in the presence of students, some talking and some listening, who were trying to enjoy their noon hour. Oakland, as have most of the performers who have entertained at the college throughout my time as a student, has played bars. The bar situation is basically the same as that of the large lounge; some people come to be entertained and others come to socialize. I am in agreement with the mystery writer concerning Oakland’s professionalism and “good vibes with the audience,” as he or she put it. But I don't believe that a crowd can be expected to return the same gracious qualities. A performer puts himself at the mercy of the crowd every time he performs. This may not seem nice or civil but, those are the breaks. I am not faulting Oakland. As I have stated in the Crier in the past, I feel a great deal of respect for Oakland as a performer. I think the writer of the letter may have been caught up in their enthusiasm concerning Oakland when they decided to admonish those “bull-ploppings” who dared to speak during his performance.

Lanning, associate director of Continuing Education and Community Services at Coming Community College, has been elected Secretary/Treasur-er of Region II, Associa- tion of Continuing Higher Education, an association involving both private and public schools.

This is the last paper published under the leadership of Sandie Eldred. This is the last issue with the material of Sherman Curry, Jim French, Joe Bar-oody, Steve Mizzoni, Denis Sweeney, Freda Ann Hugenor, Bob Kramarik, Steve McGruder, Karen Dreher, Kim Mears, and Kim Keith in it. Without them this paper will not be the same. But there is one person leaving this staff who deserves an extra thanks. And that is our Associate Editor, Ben Asbuiy. If it wasn’t for him, this paper would have fallen apart long ago. What can you say about a man who is so dedicated to this paper that he gave up seeing Zeus so he could type up “Trailer Talk.” Despite the fact he has a 4.0 average and is star track sprinter, wrestler, basketball, baseball and handball player, Ben is a modest and likable fellow. When asked how he manages to keep his grades up, participate so brilliantly in sports, be an active member in Two Bit Players (he starred in TBP’s production of “Myra Breckinridge”), work 40 hours a week at the Red Bam, and spend at least four hours a day on the Crier, he said “Aw shucks, ah ain’t doin’ anymore than what ma wants.” Looking back, the mind is boggled by what Ben has done for this paper. During the big flap over the supposedly misappropriated TBP funds, Ben was the only one of us who kept a cool head. While the rest of us were busy throwing accusations all around he did some solid research and found out that all was in order at TBP. Mr. Gil-martin’s new imported silk three-piece suit was proved to be a perfectly legal costume acquisition, as was Mr. Moonschein’s new Cadillac, listed under props. And where would Dr. Giuffrida be without Ben Asbury? It was Ben who proved that Dr. Giuffrida was indeed stoned and therefore not in his right mind when he attacked Ric Smith in SP 102. The list of clubs and people indebted to Ben’s journalistic expertise is endless. NORML would have gone down the drain if Ben hadn’t proved that those cigarettes contained only groundup asparagus. WC-EB owes a vote of thanks since it was Ben who proved that the mike was off when Hans Kelberg referred to Guy Van Horn’s ancestry. And Mr. Paparelli, you have to admit that Ben saved your hide when he kept his mouth shut about February 30. Ben is going on to Yale where he plans to major in theological studies. After he graduates from there and gets back from Oxford (he’s a Rhodes Scholar) Ben plans to enter the priesthood (sorry Trish). Pity us at the Crier. When Ben Asbury leaves us, he takes a bit of us all with him (he collects fingernail clippings). Yes, Ben Asbury, we all bid you a tearful goodbye. Postscript: Some of you by now have realized that most of the preceding article was B.S. The more observant probably have noticed that there is no Ben Asbury listed in the Fool’s Box. That can be explained by the fact that he doesn’t exist. But Sandie Eldred does. While she is not a Rhodes Scholar or a star handball player, she has ridden herd over the most changable, recalcitrant, and devil-may-care group of people ever assembled in one club. For that, she deserves not only a diploma but a Congressional Medal of Honor. Besides her extreme patience she has other attributes, none of whph can be printed however. Sandie, I will miss you when you’re gone, you devil you. Kim Mears is also leaving us. Kim has a quick mind and a quick tongue. She has added her particular brand of humor and warmth to our cold trailer. Without Kim, who will I try out my new insults on? Goodbye Kim, you’re beautiful. With Freda Ann Hugenor going we’ll have to find a new layout editor. It will be hard to replace her as Freda has more experience in layout than anyone I know of. Freda has been a source of fun and laughter this semester. Freda, God speed and take care. Sherman Curry, besides instilling in me an extreme fear of flying darts, has been to us at the Crier a calm eye in a raging hurricane. Though Sherm could be rowdy when he wanted to be, he never lost his head when things got rough. What more can you say about a fellow who wrest- . les with elevators? Hasta Luego Sherman, catch you at the coda. I’d like to take a paragraph to say goodbye to Jim French who shares my passion for science fiction and NASA, Karen Dreher, the little girl with the big smile, Steve McGruder, who knew and told all, and Bob Kramarik, a nice fellow with poor taste. Also bon voyage to our resident flasher, Steve Mizzoni, to our jock with an itch to write, Denis Sweeney to Joe Baroody, our ambassador to Keuka College, and to Kim Keith, our man at WCEB. My last goodby is reserved for Dave Shar-man, who quit the Crier to become our resident groupie. Goodbye to you all. CORNING GLASS WORKS / V ... WHERE EXCELLENCE COUNTS i THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, MA Y19, 1977 5 Eulogy On The Death Of An Infant (Editor’s Note: The following article is a Combination feature/editorial. It grew out of an honors project. Sources of information include The Crier Library and several interviews.) Last February I began what I thought would be a very enjoyable experience. As an Honors Project and as an independent project of CCC’s Anti-Sexism Program (special thanks go to George Gifford for suggesting the task). I entitled it, “From There to Here to Where,” and I had hoped to answer the question of “Where do we go after a-wareness?” I now realize that I was being very naive and idealistic in many ways. For one thing. I found it difficult to find a clear-cut beginning for the program. I also had problems with the program’s overall ambiguity. Another problem I faced was the realization that “Here” for the program is a state of limbo and “There” just might never be anywhere. Before I let you in on my reasons for a disillusionment with the program’s future, let me give you a rough sketch of its past. The History Of The Program CCC’s Anti-Sexism Program has no official date of birth. It started as the stepchild of the Anti-Racism Program and slowly evolved into a separate entity. The sexism program had its formal kick-off on April 8, 1975 when a convocation featuring “Harrison and Tyler” took place. The act was billed as “the world’s first feminist comedy team.” The convocation was very controversial, both on campus and in the community. Interestingly enough, the Crier’s reaction to the event was mixed. One writer, a male, complained that Harrison and Tyler’s humor was the “same old thing,” while another reporter, female, told how the humor was a product of “anger” directed at “the traditional female role.” No more anti-sexism events took place until the Fall of 1975. This is when Karen DeCrow, then-president of the National Organization for Women appeared in a campus-wide convocation. I had the fortune, as a lowly reporter then, of covering that event for the Crier. DeCrow’s appearance, like Harrison and Tyler’s, was a controversial one. A large part of the controversy stemmed from the fact that it occurred at the time when New York State voters were faced with a referendum on a state Equal Rights Amendment. The proposal was facing heavy opposition and several anti-ERA representatives were in the audience and made repeated attempts to disrupt the convocation. The next official event in the Anti-Sexism Program was one that continued the link with anti-racism— the development of the Racism, Sexism and Oppression course, which was first offered during the mini-mester in J anuary 1976. The focus of the course was outlined as the examination of the “impact that racism and sexism has on those it oppresses, who it serves, and how it affects us all with special attention to the white male in society.” The course sought to emphasize “change through awareness and action.” The first Anti-Sexism workshop took place in October, 1975. Keeping with the pattern already set earlier in the year, the workshop created dissen -tion on campus. The source was faculty and staff women and the reason, so they stated, was the “incompetence” of the workshop’s female facilitator. Eventually the woman was replaced by a facilitator more satisfactory to the dissenters and altogether there were four awarenessraising workshops held in the Sping of 1976. The next major event in Anti-Sexism development was the implementation of CCC’s Administrative Internship Program last Spring. According to an article that appeared in the Crier, December 11, 1975, “the objectives of the program are to provide a chance for women and minorities to gain administrative experience in order to overcome the historical lack of mobility that has existed for these groups.” Two people were to be chosen per semester to participate in the program. Only one was chosen the first semester: Nancy Andrews interned with Acting Dean of Students Clark Maloney. There were no interns last semester, but there are two this year. Bill Glenn is interning with President Donald Hangen and Anita Ogden is working with Acting Dean of Instruction George Gifford. Where Is Here? Many things have changed at CCC since the active semester that the Anti-Sexism Program experienced last Spring. Undoubtedly the most newsworthy thing, and certainly the greatest reason for change, has been the resignation of Dr. Robert Frederick as college president and the selection of Dr. Donald Hangen as his replacement. It was Dr. Frederick who had provided much of the chief impetus for the Anti-Racism program and who sanctioned the sexism activities. In order to assess that effect, if any, the change of helmsmen has had on the college’s Anti-Sexism Program, and in an attempt to ascertain where the program now stands, I interviewed a few key people on campus, including Dr. Frederick and Dr. Hangen. Delyte Frost A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to discuss the past, present and possible future of the Anti-Sexism Program with its strongest outside participant, Delyte Frost. Ms. Frost has facilitiated most the awareness workshops for the college since she became involved with Coming in January of last year. She is associated with Resources for Change, based in Washington, D.C., and came to CCC as a replacement for the female coordinator who had caused the previous discontentment. Ms. Frost said that when she first came to CCC she felt “a lot of energy and action” that surfaced in an “integrated, altogether strong approach” supported by Bob Frederick. She said that she saw a desire to “increase awareness in students” and to develop a “task force and a women’s group.” Frost said that she then learned that Bob Frederick was to leave and her tought was “Who’s going to take care of us now? How can we ensure that this work goes on?” She said, “The integrated approach has not been present with the new president (Don Hangen).” There is no sense of support, she said and she feels much less energy on campus for the issues of racism and sexism. She said that she hears the verbal support, but sees no advocacy. “Racism and sexism can still be supported from the top, but it is a shotgun approach,” said Frost. “You get less mileage for more energy.” Where does she see the Anti-Sexism Program going in the future? Not far. “It’s no longer a ripe time at CCC,” said Ms. Frost. “There is a balance of forces (pro and con) and change only occurs when there is an imbalance. One side will have to increase energy.” She said she feels only a drastic incident will bring about the increase in energy required to put force back into the program, like perhaps the firing of a female instructors: “something that will confront the institution on its complacency.” Nancy Andrews Nancy Andrews, assistant director of the Commons, has been a very active on-campus worker in the Anti-Sexism Program and was the first participant in the Internship Program. She feels that the program faces a very critical time right now - the support of Bob Frederick is no longer present, the affirmative action officer is only part-time position and Ron Hofsess, program director, is leaving this summer for a year’s sabbatic leave. “Whoever replaces Ron has a critical charge to continue the work on sexism.” says Andrews. “We need someone who can stand hassles. It is important that someone stay at a very vocal level, questioning issues and procedures.” Ms. Andrews said that she feels the program has in the past accomplished a-wareness in three areas: curriculum assessment: elimination of sexism in internal communications and the implementation of the Internship Program. She said that one sense of ambituity that she has felt this year is that there has been no clear directive as to whether or not employees of all levels can receive release time to attend workshops. “Dr. Frederick made it clear that all employees could get release time to attend programs,” says Andrews. Where is the program going? “I’m not sure we’re at a point of going,” says Ms. Andrews. She said that she would like to see more a-wareness raising and more student involvement, possibly a mini-convocationer a one-hour program, “because it’s something that will affect them for the rest of their lives.” But she isn’t very hopeful about the future. “Some people think that we are ahead of other institutions,” says Andrews. “We have been, but unless we keep moving we won’t be much longer.” She said CCC should compare itself with other institutions because it causes a sit-back-and-let-them-catch-up effect. What Is The Future? Where does the Anti-Sexism Program from active past and in-limbo present? There is much debate and concern over that very question. Some things have been accomplished this year, particularly the beginning of a plan to work with area high school guidance counselors in eliminating sexism in career choice. Corning East and West counselors have already been exposed to the idea in a sem- inar a few weeks ago. There have also been two student workshops, one each semester, but overall, there has been little real concrete action around the issue this year. One cause for concern about the future comes over the decision not to continue the- position of Anti-Racism/Sexism Director after Ron Hofsess goes on sabbatic. The plan is to institutionalize the program under the college deans. It is a good idea, as far as it goes. I personally have several questions about its implementation, though. First of all, two of the deans will be new men to the campus. I’m sure that they will, as Dr. Hangen has, require time to become acquainted with the college and its procedures. Second, I don’t believe that a committment to the willingness to deal with sexism has been a high priority in the selection of these two men, so they conceivably could be behind this institution in their own a-wareness. Third, I don’t believe that fighting sexism will actually be a high priority task for any of the deans; too many other things, often out of necessity, come first. In our present situation much time has to be spent on budgetary and declining enrollment Droblems. I took the priority given Anti-Sexism by the administration in the past year and while I want to be hopeful about the future, I find it difficult. It took six months for a new affirmative action officer to be named. I now hear that the position of Anti-Racism/Sexism director won’t be continued and I am disenheart-ened. As Nancy Andrews said, we need someone who will remain at a very vocal level, questioning the college’s practices from day to day. I think that this decision, despite all the rhetoric in denial, in effect, kills the program. This death comes at an unfortunate time because several outside organizations have shown an interest in using CCC as a resource for combating their own racism and sexism. The Elmira and Auburn Correctioal Facilities: the New York State Depart- By SANDIE ELDRED ment of Corrections; the State University of New York at Oneonta; the National Girl Scout Council; a consortium of 25 area hospitals; an Elmira poverty agency; the Chemung County Catholic Clergy; the Corning-Painted Post and Jasper Central School districts; Duchess Community College; Rockland CC, the University of Vermont and the Community College Student Association have all asked CCC for help in establishing their own anti-sexism or antiracism programs. With renewed support, where could the Anti-Sex-ism Program go? Because it is just an infant, the possibilities are many. Ron Hofsess gave five directions: 1. “Look at instructional materials for sexism and develop ways to combat it;” 2. “Look at faculty attitudes and behaviors to assess “are we sexist?” and to what extent sexism exists;” 3. “Look at policies and practices of the institution, such as admissions and hiring procedures” for possible discrimination; 4. “Become an active resource to the community, help area industry and businesses look at the effects sexism has in their daily practices;” and 5. “Keep an on-going awareness-raising” on campus, especially for students, because the turnover in a community college is so great each year. The main vehicle for this being the maintenance of “at least one course that is clearly identified as dealing with these issues.” Most of the people interviewed felt that the slow death of CCC’s Anti-Sex-ism program reflected not just a different administra-tional focus, but also a new mood in the country. Delyte Frost called it a “wait and see” attitude triggered by southerner Jimmy Carter’s election as President. Hofsess summed up the dilemna here at Corning when he said, “CCC must decide do wg continue to follow the mood of people who want to participate in sexist practices or do we confront and counter-act that moofl to reshape it into nonsexi^t ways of behavior.” Con’t. on page 8 COMPLIMENTS OF 35 Fine Stores Route 17 Exit 51 BIG FLATS 6 THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, MA Y19, 1977 The Scoop’s Last Dip By STEVE McGRUDER Did you know that the cast party of Sam that the theme was, it’s a small, small world.

Info Center Recap The career information center is nearing the completion of its first successful year at CCC. Throughout the fall semester, the careers center aided 717 CCC students in finding information about their chosen career, specific college information, or just college browsing. The spring semester, though not yet over, has aided 368 students. Clarice Wilsis a'nd Judy Fried are pleased with this year’s results. They also feel, though, that had more students known about the center, more students might have used it. Also, they feel that if they knew more about student’s needs, they could have helped them more. The center is located upstairs in the library and contains specific information for students’ use on-self evaluation, education requests and salaries for jobs, writing resumes, training schools, colleges, opportunities for women, minorities, and others. The information comes in the forms. Some re sour - By: SUE MUCCIGRASSO ces, such as college catalogs, have always been in the library. The center is open to everyone, and will remain open during the library hours this summer. The career information center - it’s there for you. “I was really pleased that we’ve had such a large number of students who utilized the center, and next year we hope to provide even more information to any student who wishes to use the center” - Clarice Wilsie.

Look For Us Again In The Fall Have A SAFE, HAPPY Summer. There is no doubt in my mind that the Anti-Sexism Program does need a reorganization. If that redoing calls for a new director, then so be it, but I think the elimination of the position, at this time, is a mistake. Possibly in the future, when the administration Eulogy Con’t. from page 5 has been firmed up for a while, this plan would work, but now it can only hurt. The shaping of moods and attitudes was CCC’s mark on the past in its pioneering of racism and sexism awareness-raising as it related to educational in- stitutions. CCC was unique in this respect. The question posed now is will Corning Community College continue its rewarding. if not always popular, work on these issues, or will the infant be quietly laud to rest?

Gene Washington Rock In Review By JIM SHUTTER Foreigner/Foreigner Foreigner/Foreigner Atlantic SD18215 $6.98 It’s a singular occurance. that undefinable chemistry of elements that makes a group immediately stand out from the musical messes. Foreigner was formed early last year of guitar /multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald ex King Crimson producer of Note Records and bass guitarist and also a multi-musically talented Mick Jones formerly of Spooky Tooth. Adding to lead vocals is Lou Gramm formerly of Black Sheep. Key boardist A1 Greenwood and Bassist Ed Gazliadi and notes session drummer Dennis Elliot. They proceed to develop a highly energetic, solid rock sound with originality steaming largely from Mick’s considerable writing talents. The sound of Foreigner builds with tight aggressive arrangements, superlative vocals and truly inspired instrumental work. The album goes right to the point with side one's rocking opener “Feels Like the First Time,” and for a couple of more samples listen to “Cold as Ice,” harmonically the rock ballad “Star Rider,” er the majestic “At War With the World.” As this auspicious debut album is released, the members of Foreigner are busily preparing to bring their fresh music to American concert audiences for the first time. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer It seems like only yesterday that Emerson, Lake and Palmer made their much celebrated appearance at the 1974 California jam and the August ’74 release of the triple LP live set, “Welcome Back My Friends,” to the song that never ends putting a fitting capstone on the first phase of the band’s career. E., L., and P. have occupied an unrivaled position in contemporary music. Now with six million selling albums under their belts, the band has decided to take a couple of years off to rest and regroup their energies. The result is “Works, Volume One.” On this album, each musician has an entire side devoted to a solo project, while side four reunites the group again. “Works,” opens up with an original piano concerto by Keith Emerson constructed in the traditional three movement form and featuring the London Philharmonic. Works Vol. ttl Greg Lake’s project includes five self pened songs written with lyricist Peter Sinfield late of King Crimson. ' Carl Palmer’s ecletic pruo’ of six tunes ranges from the works of Prokof-ieff and Back to his original “Rockers” with Joe Walsh on one track all this highlighted by Palmer’s excellent percussion work. The final side reunites the group for their advanced work-out to date. First up is an Emerson arrangement of Aaron Copeland’s “Fanfare for the Common Man.” Bound to be recognized as a classic interpretation the album concludes with the 13 minute opus “Pirates.” The release of what I consider Emerson, Lake and Palmer’s most mature work will be followed this summer by having a concert tour all over the United States. For the fans of Pink Floyd, King Crimson, of course Emerson, Lake and Palmer, type contemporary music, this album proves to be the best on the Contemporary new release racks today.
