Broun Set to Appear Voter Registration Heywood Hale Broun, sports essayist for CBS, commentator, lecturer and author, will be the next Visiting Scholar, speaking on “Health and Leisure into the 80’s.” He will be on campus April 7, 8 and 9. What can you say about a man who has covered over 600 events for CBS news, including the Super Bowl, the Olympics, and the World Series, but who generates more curiosity and enthusiasm from a marble tournament, or golf on a frozen lake. Heywood Hale Broun will make you laugh. He’s a colorful, quickwitted and thoroughly fascinating person who appeals to just about everybody, with clever anecdotes on sports, the theatre, the literary world, and society in general. Drawing material from his multifaceted career as a roving sports essayist (a term he concocted), and actor, and critically acclaimed author, Broun enlivens his audience with memorable gems of jocular wisdom. True to his spirit, Broun specializes in the “offbeat.” With amusing zeal he zeros in on the drama and spectacle of a hotly contested horse Registration Dates Set Registration for day session classes for the Fall 1980 Semester will take place between Monday, April 2 and Friday, April 25,1980.

If you have any difficulty in getting registered, please come to the Registrar’s Office for assistance. shoe tournament. Whatever he talks about, or whatever he ribs, his extraordinary point of view will give you fresh insight, as well as a good laugh. Broun attended Swarthmore College, graduating Phi Beta Kappa in 1940. He then went to New Orleans where, by chance, through assembly of a band of old-timers, he became the father of the jazz revival. Broun also edited a small jazz magazine. Before being drafted, Broun was hired as a sports writer by a newspaper called PM. After serving four and a half years in the Army, Broun returned to his (Continued on page 3) by Diane Zeh The Law Society, in conjunction with the Chemung County League of Women Voters, sponsored voter registration days on March 18 and 19. During the two days there was tremendous turnout of people registering. This photo shows a typical scene at the registration table. A total of 409 people were registered during the two days. Broken down by counties: Chemung--110, Steuben--159, Schuyler--20, others--121, for a grand total of 410. These figures represent 23 percent of the daytime campus emrollment. Chinese Professors to Speak By:Geri Searles What was it like to live and teach in China during the Cultural Revolution? How has China changed since the reopening of relations with the West? These and other questions will be answered on Thursday, April 3 at 8PM when three professors from Peiking University will give a formal presentation in the small auditorium of the Corning Glass Museum. The professors are part of an exchange program sponsored by Chancellor Wharton and the State University of New York. Jing-guo, An-lin Ge, and Jie Tao are all professors of English who are working on advanced degrees at the State University College at New Paltz. They each hold degrees in English language and English Literature from universities in China. They will be on the Corning Community College campus Friday, April 4. At 8 AM they will attend a coffee hour in their honor where they will be able to visit informally with students and faculty. They will conclude their History of China course to speak with the students and to answer their questions. Both of these events are open to any interested students and faculty. The local visit of these three prominent Chinese professors is being coordinated by Pauline Leveen, Professor of History/^overnmant. visit by attending the CRIER Application The editors of the CRIER are now accepting applications for editorial and staff positions for the Fall of 1980. There are opening in all departments --editors, layout, business, sports, typing, reporting, photography, proof reading,etc. Not all positions require the ability to write so if you are interested in any area of business or journalism , stop by the CRIER office and see Mike Wayne, Editor, or Geri Searles, Managing Editor.

It also keeps you aware of the extent of activities and services on your campus. DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION IS FRIDAY, APRIL 11 at noon. GUEST EDITORIAL By: Michele O’Heron As a returning freshman to CCC, my eyes have been open to an abundance of happenings that, looking for the right room, the right instructor, and someone I know, kept me from seeing the first time I walked the campus. One of those things is the way the students regard their instructors. Last semester I wrote an article on instructors dropping students from courses because of absences and then the instructor turning around and cancelling classes. In a way I was picking at an injustice that the instructors were introducing. Now it’s time to turn the ta bles or so the saying goes. The first few days are of vital importance to the teacher. He has to get a list of all the students that will be attending his classes, figure out many new ones he can add, handle all of the dropping students, get the basic information on those students intending to stay on in class, and keep his sanity. Students also have to go through all those hassels, fail to realize is that their attendance the first few days is crucial. Otherwise the instructor, after having recorded your absence for the first two classes, might take into consideration that you are not planning to attend this particular class. He may be so inclined to add a student who has taken the time and the interest to show up to his class, and in the process eliminate the room in the class for the student who hasn’t shown up yet. Along comes the missing student. He wanders in on third scheduled class and notices that all the seats have been taken. He looks to the instructor out of half opened eyes(of course he is almost fifteen minutes late), and the instructor in turn looks at him and says, “Are you inquiring about adding?” Student answers back, “No I’m already scheduled for this class” class.” Instructor,“Have you been here yet?” Snicker, “No.” “Well, I’m sorry, but as you can see the seats are all taken.” Snicker turning to angry look, “You mean I’m out of the class?” Instructor, feeling a little bad but knowing he has already overfilled the course,“I’m sorry.” Student, now ready to kill, “Yeh well that’s just great.” Out the door he goes rudely slamming it behind him. him. Now we have one angry student along with an instructor who isn’t feeling to well himself. Who was right? After checking with the Registrar’s Office, I found out that the instructor has every right to drop a student who fails to show up for the first two classes. After all, if you are so uninterested in the class that you don’t bother to show up, then it seems right that your place be filled by someone who is much more concerned about their education, so much so that they did show up and when they weren’t even scheduled for the class. It is very upsetting to both the instructor and the students in the class to have someone so rudely interrupt the routine of the day and leave them with bad feelings. In all respects, the instructors at this college put up with a lot of bull from us, all our excuses for why we didn’t make it to class, why we can’t take tests, why we have been late the last fifteen classes and any other detailed stories that our little minds may conjure up. It seems only right and fair that we should show a little respect for their needs too. Those of you who missed the social last week missed this view of the Administration Building, taken from the Commons. CRIER photo editor, Bob Lyon, claims that this is in focus, took this as the band was packing up early and people were waiting for the roads to be sanded.

He began in summer stock and then went on to Broadway. For the next seventeen years he appeared in 14 Broadway plays, and also became a familiar figure in the early days of television. His first role was on the Phil Silvers Show. In 1965, Broun left acting and published his widely acclaimed book, A STUDIED MADNESS. Today, Broun is busily engaged as a broadcaster, comentator, an author, and lecturer. His love for horses and the racetrack makes his coverage of top racing events something special for Broun as well as his audience. He also hosts a nationally syndicated radio show, “Broun on Books.” Mr. Broun is also listed in Who’s Who in the American Theatre. The second annual SUNFEST has been set for May 10th, 1980.

MONDAY-FRIDAY 8:00 am until 10:00 pm ★ ★ ★ us© us^ ★ ★ WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU BUY A TERM PAPER “Academic Research Papers: Improve Your Grades,” say the ads in college newspapers and such national magazines as Rolling Stone. “Send $1 for catalogue of topics.” It is research that is for sale, but it is research that can be handed in to a professor as a term paper with little more that a re-typing. Nobody knows how many of these papers are bought by college students, but it is easy to see that the companies in the term paper business are making out well. Since their beginnings in the early 1970s, such companies as Research Assistance of Los Angeles, and Collegiate Research Systems in New York have expanded their services with national advertising and catalogues of pre-written papers which number in the thousands. If just one-half of one percent of college students bought a 10-page paper annually, the companies would take in over $2 million. While it’s difficult to find out how many papers are being sold, or to whom, the quality of those papers can be investigated. A situation presented itself where a reporter, who is also a senior at the University of Arizona, had been assigned a 10-page term paper in his modern dramatic literature course. Plans were quickly drawn up to buy a paper to turn in to the professor without his knowing it. The student’s own, self-prepared term paper would be left with a department head and turned in after the pruchased paper was graded. The first thing to do was get a catalogue. There was a nagging question of whether or not the companies actually were selling honest-to- goodness term papers. After all, when interviewed by reporters, most deny that the purpose of their business is to fulfill students’ needs. “We hate that term (term paper mill) being applied to us,” said Michael Spencer of Research Assistance. “Most of our service is sold to businesses. We don’t even know how many students use the service. We’re just selling information; the morality lies with the student.” But the myth was quickly dispelled by one phone call by the student/re porter. “Hello. I need a term paper fast,” said the student to the gentleman who answered the phone at Research Assistance. “Okay, when is your paper due?” he asked. “And what is- the subject?” After noting that the paper wasn’t due for three weeks, the gentleman said there was plenty of time to order the catalogue by mail. “And if you need the paper shortly after you get the catalogue, just call us and order it by phone.” One dollar, and about five days later, the catalogue arrived. In “Drama: World” there were 60 papers to choose from, not to mention the many titles that could be found under comparative literature and other drama subsections. The choice came down to two papers. The cost for these prewritten catalogue papers is $3.50 a page. Original research will be done for $8 a page. The prices keep going up as the degrees involved get higher. For $12 a page, one company will do Master’s theses, and for the big one, the doctoral thesis, the company will charge a mere $30 a page. The reporter chose the 10-page Brecht paper, because it was cheaper. As for the legality of all this, nine states have outlawed the selling of materials which the merchant knows will be turned in for academic credit. No such law exists in Arizona. And, of course, if any student was caught buying and turning in such materials verbatim, he or she would probably face plagiarism at school The time to order the paper arrived. It was just one week before the paper was due, so the order was made over the phone. “We can send it out C.O.C., or you can pay for it with your Master Charge or Visa,” the seller said. A Visa number was given, the amount tallied, and the transaction completed. “Wait a minute,” said the student/reporter. “I want to make sure nobody else is turning in this paper for this class. Do you have any protection against that?” The guy on the other end chuckled. He’d heard it before. “Sure. We keep records of which schools the papers are sent to. Hold on a second and I’ll check it right now.” He returned a moment later. “Uh, that paper was sent to a University of Arizona student in 1974. Do you still want it? You might want to change the first page around.” No professor can remember papers from five years back, the reporter reasoned. “Sure, that’s okay. Send it out.” Four days later, a plain white envelope arrived with ten pages of “research.’’The paper had been photocopied and it required re-typing before it could be turned in. Footnotes were included, although the style wasn’t quite correct. The paper was re-typed exactly as it came in. and was turned in to the unsuspecting professor two days later. The paper was given an A-minus. “I wavered between a B-plus and an A-minus,” said the professor after he had found out about its origin. “So I gave the benefit of the doubt to the student. There really were some good points made here.” It should be noted that the student/professor was doing “A” work in the class and had a fairly close student/professor relationship. The class had about 18 students in all. The reporter, being of sound journalistic ethics explained the situation to the professor and then turned in his real paper.

Martin Shaefer developed the course “Death and Dying” in 1973 and has been its sole proprietor ever since, teaching the course at both Corning Community and Elmira Colleges. Though he devotes most of his instructing hours speaking about death, there is nothing sinister about Marty Shaefer. He is a pleasant-looking, middle -aged man, who is the first one to crack the “Boris Karlof Complex” jokes. He is a celebrity on the third floor of the Nursing Building here at CCC; the Martin Shaefer Memorial Bathroom was dedicated in his honor. Martin Shaefer’s life is very hectic. If he’s not teaching, he’s working with a bereavement group or maybe talking or listening to a dying person or the family of a terminally ill patient. Marty Shaefer not only gives comfort, but he also helps people learn to cope with their pains, fears and anxieties about death. Shaefer is not a savior. He neither preaches nor prophesies. He is a family man who drives a Volkswagon. His hair has gone gray around his face, but it’s not the gray hair one contrives from years of grief. Shaefer’s life style requires much compassion on his part, but first and foremost, his obligation is to teach. Shaefer explained that the major course objective of “Death and Dying” is for the student to realize that he can never understand death. The bereaved always ask, “Why did he die?” Why am I still alive?” We all have a finite existence, he points out, and we must accept it whether we like it or not. The course enrollment for “Death and Dying” has always been high. Shaefer usually teaches classes with 30 to 5o students, but often erollment in class reaches 70. He once taught a section with 99 students, which made it difficult for the entire class to participate. Many people who take the course have lost or are about to lose a loved one. Some are dying themselves. Shaefer never ceased to remind his students that everyone, no matter how young and healthy, is dying right now. “Your death certificate was signed the day you were born,” he said. Shaefer sees a few basic problems in most all of his students. He says, “They won’t admit to their fears of death. They’re petrified of the final confrontation.”His purpose is not to change a student, but to make him more aware. He hopes that his students will be able to express thier emotions freely when they’re exposed to death.“If you show no emotion, you might just as well be dead.” Most people have some degree of apprehensions toward death, Shaefer explains , but they have to bring them out into the open. “I don’t want their experiences in this room to be limited. This week they all cried; last week I had them laughing.” Shaefer teaches his classes to take death seriously, to be certain of the cold, hard fact that they will die. “About 80 percent of all people would want to know it they were dying,” he explains, “and ask them how and it’s quick-sudden-in their sleep.” “Why would you want to sleep through one of the biggest events in your life, he laughs, “The end of it!” Shaefer says there are many fears associated with death, but if you can lessen one fear, you can learn to deal with the rest of them. Most people fear dying alone, in an unfamiliar setting or a sterile hospital room. “Only 12 percent of the FREE Physicians Services For Students Daily except Thursday 1-2 p.m. only Dr. M. Lapp 116 E. First St. population today die at home. Wouldn’t you feel more secure dying in your own home?” he asked. Shaefer feels that most people hve greater fears of being abandoned by someone close, a spouse, than they do of dying themselves. “There’s a lot of tears,” he said. The lament is there and needs to be released. “You can’t be expected to turn your emotions on and off.” Shaefer has a “goodbye exercise” in the course where students literally say goodbye to someone who has died. “It relieves alot of the tension,” he says. Most people feel cheated out of an appropriate farewell. They want to show their love. Shaefer hopes the course has been able to bring death out of the closet, to clarify its uncertainty and to teach that it is as natural as being born. [ the i CRIER j it's good...

Following the directions I had been given, I delighted in the leaping leprechauns adorning the walls as I passed, but stood in awe as I came upon a giant paper mache Kaola bear. A small child proudly announced to me that it was the school mascot. The Day Care Center, located in the Carder Elementary School, takes up two rooms on the second floor and the walls are covered with a variety of art done by the children. Areas of the two rooms are marked off in such cos things as Math, Science and Language arts, which includes prelearning skills, dramatics, and a type of creative writing where the children, 35 of whom are presently enrolle, make up their own stories. They also study music and art. The headmistress, as-it-were, is director Mary Ann Demaree who has run the Nursury School since the fall of 1978. The 27 year old Demaree, dressed in high boots as if ready for anything, is a graduate of Beloit College in Wisconsin where she got her B.A. in Early Childhood Education. She received her Masters from the University of Wisconsin. The basis for the The following bills were recently introduced on the Senate side. S.839 would improve rail transportation security.

The charge is $.50 an hour plus a one-time charge for registration of $10.00. Lunch prices depend on the family income but they range $.55, $.10 and in some cases, free. Because of the in-and-out nature of the school, due to student schedules, there is no real structured classes.

VOTE FOR THE BEST turn SPORTS CCC 9 Return From Florida The Corning Community College baseball team returned recently from their third annual spring trip to Florida, sponsored entirely by the team. Despite an 0-5 record compiled down south head coach Dave Clark still feels that the Barons have made progress and will make a strong showing during the upcoming 1980 campaign. The Corning Community College squad got off to a rough start on the trip when they were held up in Virginia for two days by a blizzard that hit the mid-Atlantic states. This forced postponement of the club’s first two games against the Boca Raton Cubs, a semi-pro club from Boca Raton, Forida. The club then opened against Boca Raton on that Tuesday and lost a doubleheader by the scores of 13-0 and 7-0. At St. Petersburg the Barons suffered the worst defeat in their history by losing to St. Petersburg Community College by a 29-1 score. The Barons then lost to the University of Tampa by an 8-4 score and closed the trip by losing 19-3 to Brevard Community College of Melbourne, Florida. Coach Clark stated, “despite getting blown out of three of the games, I feel we made progress in Florida. Sure we’d like to win every game we play but the purpose of the southern trip is to give the kids some playing experience and to allow assistance coach Jim Allan and myself an opportunity to see each of our players outside the gym environment and under game pressure. It must be understood that these schools which we are competing against have been outside since August while our first game is the first time we’ve been outside. We also play each player in every game, something that won’t happen during the regular season. My assisitants and I both feel we have a strong team that will be very competitive within the NJCAA’s Region 3 this coming season. We have alot of work to do before opening the season but well be ready come April 4.” Intramurals and Recreation BASKETBALL PLAYOFFS (semi-finals) FREE AGENTS-49 over H.C.

Olympic goalie-hero Jim Craig finally had something go wrong. He was beaten by the New York Islanders last week by the score of 6-1. He was replaced during the middle of the second period after giving up six goals on only eleven shots on goal. To the credit of the crowd at the Nassau Coliseum he was cheered not booed. I guess once you become an American hero, you remain one for awhile. Jim had the world to himself. Seems like everything he did was right. He beat the Russians. He won the gold medal. He made a commercial that was great. People are knocking down his door to do a book on his life story. This is only a minor setback for him, he’ll be back. The last bad experience that Jim had was the 10-3 loss to the Russians just before the Olympics. He had a good run. Isn’t it ironic that it ended where it began? KEN STABLER FOR DAN PASTORINI My first reaction to this was that the Houston Oilers really had the wool pulled over their eyes this time. There is no doubt about Stabler’s ability, but he’s getting older. The Raiders have themselves a quaterback who might just take them all the way. It looks to me as though the Oilers will count on Stabler to play the next two years and then hand the job over to Gifford Nielson, who has been waiting in the wings for three years now. He filled in very handily during the playoffs when Pastorini was hurt. I think the Raiders got the short end of this deal. THE BIRD IS FLYING HIGH If people ever doubted that Larry Bird would make it in the NBA, THEY WILL PROBABLY HAVE CHANGED THEIR TUNE BY NOW. He has made the transition without the least bit of difficulty. Some experts said that the Bird would be too slow for the pro game. It seems to me that the Bird should slow down a little bit so that the rest of the league can catch up to him. He has a solid chance of becoming the league’s MVP and Rookie of the Year, in this his freshman season. It hasn’t been done since Wes Unseld did it some ten years ago. At this time last year the Celtics had one of the worst records in the NBA, now with the Bird the Celtics posess one of the best, if not the best. If he gets any better they will have to create a new league for the guty to play in.
