Vol. 21 No. 2, Sept. 12,1980 corning community college STUDENT LEADERS ATTEND CONVENTION by B.J. Smith Nine of Corning Community College’s key student representatives attended the American Student Association Conference in Washington D.C. over the summer. The group spent four days, from July 25th to the 29th at this national convention for college students. Representing CCC were: STUDENT GOV’T Richard Kopacko Rafaat Kurshi B.J. Smith Bulent Melezoglu APC Evie Grunzburg LuAnn King Kelly Mays ICC Wayne Pelchar STUD. RUN BUSINESS Bill Raphley The group arrived in D.C. at about 3:00 p.m. and the hectic schedule fell into place for all concerned. The workshops were great in number and varied in interest. The group divided to cover as many topics as possible. Those offerings included Truth in Testing, Black Legislature, Ed- ucational Legislature/Fi-nancial Aid. Student Senate, Legislative progress!Lobbying Techniques, Alternative Career Placement, Voter Registration, Manage-ment/Planning Student Internships, How Policy is Made on Federal, State and Local Levels, Faculty Evaluation, Problems of Alcohol on Campus, Activity Funds Budgeting and a Draft Regisration Forum. It must be mentioned that students attending this convention came from as far away as the University of Alaska. Almost 200 campuses were represented and over 500 students attended from these colleges. The second day of the convention offered seminars on Problems of the Handicapped Students, Collective Bargaining, Foreign Student Organizations, Independent and Community Colleges, The Press, Low Tuition, Student Constituions and Corporations, Child Care, Rape Intervention on Campus and a forum on ERA. The CCC student Reps had the opportunity to observe a protest march and demonstration held by the International Freedom Foundation. This group was por-testing the hostages being held captive in Iran. The demonstration was relatively peaceful but some violence was noted when the protesters were egged and Police Intervention was called for. Start-Up Social: Good, Bad By Michelle O'Heron The four man group who call themselves 805 got the Commons rockin’ at the Start- Up Social last Friday night, and don't worry Mom, ‘cause Doc Thompson and Bob Vanelli made sure we all ate well. New commer to CCC Mike Post said the social was really good. Dean Kelly commented that the music could have been louder, spoken with a smile on his face, but there were some other very interesting statements made. Julie Gardner, returning sophmore to CCC said the socials should be better advertised so that the turn out is better. Student government president, Bulent Melezoglu, agreed and also commented about the time. He said, We have the best band that money can buy, we have the food, but the time is wrong. He continued, There were so many people here last year for the Todd Hobbin Band that you couldn't move. It could have been like that this time. So , I decided to take a poll. Out of 80 students at the social, 77 of them suggested that the time be changed to later in the evening. This may not be an accurate poll, but I feel it represents some student opinion. Maybe next time, with a little pushing, we can get the time slot changed. Julie Gardner: More ad-vertisment Mike good Post: Social is Spencer Crest News On Monday, a forum on Nuclear Energy was held and workshops on Usage of the Black Alumni in Politics, Black Educational Legislation, Energy Conservation, Student Rights and Apathy were offered. The CCC students found the convention rewarding, enriching their awareness of the national student body and their relationship with the problems and also the strides in America. On Tuesday the students left the Regency Hyatt Hotel on Capital Hill after a tour of the city. The Reps returned to Corning that evening, ready to apply what they had learned. the CRIER it’s good... for YOU! By Michelle O'Heron While most organizations on campus take a rest over the summer months, there is one that has been very busy preparing a fabulous entrance into the new school year. That organization is The Spencer Crest Nature Center. Over the summer, the organization, headed by CCC science instructors, Jack Wills an d John Brennan, held a succesful campaign to raise money for a building. With the help of the Corning Rotary Club, Chaired by Dr. John Wallig, and the generosity of the community, the Nature Center was able to raise almost 100,000 dollars. The money will be used in the construction of an outdoor museum. The Steuben County Youth Conservation Corps also contributed a little sweat to the Center. They managed to complete an outdoor trail shelter, a boardwalk over part of Amelia Pond, bridges and rest areas on the trails, and a some other trail work. So, if you have never visited the Nature Center, you have a lot to see, and if you have already visited the Center in the past, it would still be worth your time to experience the new additions. cont. on next page FREE LEGAL ADVICE 12=30-1’30P*.

CORNING NEWCHANNELSI 50 Ferris Street HOME BOX OFFICE CAN WE REALLY ESCAPE POLITICS? Thus far we’ve managed to survive two political conventions and endless television, newspaper and radio coverage of Democratic vs. Republican vs. Independent presidential tickets without even flinching. We think Ronald Reagan was alright in Bedtime for Bonzo, that Jimmy Carter’s brother is a redneck screwball and that Anderson from Illinois is the Father Knows Best from TV. Crier Editor Barb Sutton Who are we? We’re college students, ofcourse. With book in hand we think we can attain sanctuary from politics on our college campuses. Laughing at politicians’ antics is our right, but escaping them is not only apathetic, it’s impossible! It’s time to face the music of this election year and concentrate on the Novem- ber balloting. We must learn and understand the issues placed before us. Not long ago, college campuses were tepid hosts for political activists. The students were in tune with predominant issues facing American society. A moral and political conscious dominated students and instilled the belief in them that they would be facet for improving society through demonstration. Today’s demonstrators and activists are varied in groups and stereotypes including housewives, factory workers, the elderly and people who are merely concerned. One does not have to be a student anymore to demonstrate against nuclear power, foreign imports, draft registration, gay rights or the ERA. College campuses have become conservative. A certain laid-back feeling has settled over them, making them oases from the stifling heat of politics. We must open our eyes and our minds to the ideas and viewpoints that call for voting attention. CCC should not be a haven for inert political opinions, but a catalyst for the growth and application of those opinions. Being a student never exempted anyone from being a citizen with a vote. RAM COINING' Commurnyy C OLLfG-E ALL AROUND CAMPUS FEATURE EDITOR Michelle O’Heron Well, here we are. The beginning of another fun filled and exciting year at CCC. To all of you returning, welcome back. To all of you experiencing CCC for the first time, just plain and simple, welcome. Most of you probably laughed heartily when you began reading this editorial, especially over the second line describing the comming year as being fun and exciting. College fun? You’ve got to be kidding! Well, I’m not. Believe me, college can be very exciting, especially at CCC. Just take a look around. First you experienced the Start-Up Social, which was pretty good. Now you have all the other socials to look forward to. Then there are all the clubs and organizations you can join. You could become a member of the Crier staff, or if music is your thing, then WCEB, our resident rockers, are the ones to see. If you are interested in sticking your nose into everyones business, then pay a call on Student Government. there is also a Vets Club, Disabled Students Club, Law Society, Inter-Club Council,APC Club, Ski Club, and one of my favorites, only because of the involvement of the entirely insane BIO Department, The Spencer Crest Nature Society. But, it doesn’t stop there. There are a whole host of other clubs to satisfy your every whim. After all of this, if you still don’t believe me when I say that Corning is exciting, then take a look at any other Community College in the area, and you will see Bulent Melezoglu The first thing I would like to address myself to this week is the budget cuts, which occurred over the summer. For the last two weeks, different organizations have been complaining about them, some violently. just how fortunate and smart you were to make Corning your choice. No other Community College offers you more. Even after all of that, I have still not hit upon the main thing that makes this college so nice. It’s the people, the students, the staff, the administration, each doing their own part to make this place tick. So, make the best of the time you spend up here. Get involved and make new friends. Before long, you’ll feel right at home. cont. from last page And, remember, the Nature Center can be used by organizations for tours. Guides are available at most times and tour reservations can be made by calling 962-9432. SG Crierside Chat I was called into an emergency meeting with the Dean of Students, Jack Kelly. He explained to me that last years administration had overestimated the amount of money we would have by about 22,000 dollars. In other words, we only had about 140,000 dollars, rather than 162,000 dollars. Mr. Kelly had made suggestions for cuts which would have balanced the budget, and asked me what I thought. I told him that there were some serious mistakes with it. He then asked me if I would go through with him, and make the cuts since the start of school was just around the corner. I told him that I would like a week to review each organization and get the Executive Board on it. That week I worked over 55 hours familiarizing myself with the notes of last years Budget Committee and trying to talk with anyone I could find from the organizations to ask their opinions. At the end of the week, I came up with what I thought was a fair budget Cuts proposal. I apologize publicly to the organizations to whom I did not get in touch with, but at the time everything was very hectic and I did not have time. Please believe me when I say the cuts were absolute objective and unbiased and there was a reason for each one. The next thing I would like to say is that the Start-Up Social, in my opinion, was not very successful. The reason for this is again, advertising and the ridiculous timming of the event. That is all I have to say about the matter. Also, 13 students have become senators. Since there were less than 15 petitions handed in, they have all automatically become senators. This means that there are two seats left if anyone is interested in this exciting position. Please pick up an application in the Student Government office. In addition to the senatorial seats, there is aposition available for auditing treasurer, which is an executive board position. If you would like an application or more information on this position, please stop in the Student Government office. Before I close I would like to say, don’t get behind in your school work. It is a real pain in the neck. collegiate crossword JOIN THE LA W SOCIETY TRIPS TO COURT SPEAKERS ON LEGAL TOPICS TRIP TO WASHINGTON D.C. OUTINGS AND MUCH MORE!

CRIMINAL JUSTICE SOCIETY The Least Successful Handcuffing The most exciting case of handcuff difficulties was reported in the New Statesman in 1978. It arose while a British circuit judge was trying a burglar in whose pocession a pair of handcuffs had been found. “I thought”, said the judge,“that the jury might be interested to know hovy handcuffs could De used to incapacitate a victim.” Brushing aside the protests of the prosecuting council, he clasped one handcuff around his wrist. "And now”, he said,“if I take the other handcuff....Oh do be quiet Mr. Smith(addressed to the agitated prosecutor), I am going to show the jury how these things work”. Only when the judge was completely fettered did he learn that the police had not yet recovered the keys. The hearing was adjourned while the judge wasted off to the tender mercies of the local blacksmith. THE ICC NEEDS MEMBERS STOP IN THE ICC OFFICE LOCA TED IN THE LOWER LEVEL OF THE COMMONS ADVISORS ARE BOB VANNELLI AND DR. ROBERT GIUFFRIDA jrosft visas To the Editor: I think the school and the banks should get together and somehow inform the students who apply for the guaranteed student loans as to what is expected of them. You receive your check and find, first, that it is made out to both you and the school. If that isn’t bad enough, you make your plans for the day, feeling you will be able to get your check cashed and get your needed additional supplies oriTy to find that the school does not simply endorse the check and allow you to cash it. They take it from you, make you sign for it and tell you to come back the next day because they have to deposit it in the CCC account and make out a new check of their own!!! I am not necessarily objecting to this procedure. I understand that it is the school’s way of insuring that they get paid their tuition money, and anything else they feel is owed to them. But when I came up to get my check endorsed, as I had not been informed of the new procedure, I was carrying my heavy typewriter, hoping to drop it off to be repaired before much of the school year passed. Having no car, I had taken a cab up to the college and had the cab wait for me, thinking I would be able to go right to the bank and get my check cashed to pay him. I was so distraut at the news that I was about to spit nails! I ended up having to charge the cab,($7.20 roundtrip) plus the cab the next day, as school was not in session. It ended up costing me $14.40 to get a check cashed! If the banks and school would simply INFORM the student of the process that is being done, it would save alot of hardship and money. Name Withheld By Request To The Editor, When I was first asked to write an editorial for this edition of the Crier I wondered what to write. It has been a long time since I wrote an editorial. And what is par for me, I put it off until Tuesday morning, the day of the deadline. As I was reading the first issue of the Crier I noticed that nobody had really touched upon imprinting into the minds of the new students that they should really get involved in the life on campus. And I am sure that many new students have fears much like the ones I experienced last year when I first came to Corning. For you that are just out of high school, you are certainly finding out that life is diferent than you cont. on next page. 0/l/otdi of ^Wi±dom FROM GEORGE WASHINTON UNIVERSITY’S DESCRIPTION OF AN EDITING COURSE. “The Lord’s Prayer contains 56 words, the Gettysburg Address 266, the Ten Commandnents 297, the Declaration of Independence 300, and a recent U.S. Government order setting the price of cabbage 26,911 words."

GUEST EDITORIAL There is no question that I have spent a few hours on the campus of Corning Community College. When I joined the faculty in 1962 it was with a true feeling of joining a vigorous young institution whose boundaries would be endless. Nothing has changed that perception as I entered my classes to begin my 19th year here. Time is a strange combination of reality and mental awareness, a kind of horizontal-vertical graph which often goes off into its own third dimension. My footsteps carry me daily to the Nursing Building where my office, on the third floor, offers me a view of the superb landscape of New York as well as the little enclave of buildings whose architecture defies time. In quiet periods there are no students and the buildings are just that--buildings. Then the students arrive and the reason for the existence of the College is abruptly brought forth as the demands of youth and education are heard. An ingredient which heretofore was not too much a part of the mix is now sensed more strongly: the “oldsters” who have come to or returned to college to savor education--the one social growth form which knows not race, color, creed, sex, handicap versus agility. Education is truly like sparkling clear water from a natural spring. It is healthy, it is quenching, it is pleasant and it is there in whatever quantities one may want or need. I have admitted that there is no college without students--and who can deny that. However, we who teach are also a rare breed. We are not all great and we are not all poor (in quality!). Like athletes, lawyers, doctors, plumbers and whatever, some of us are more intelligent and dedicated than others. I think students perceive that and make their judgements, instinctual or objective, to align themselves with those teachers who can bring out the best in them or, barring that, who can compel them to learn what they sense is Dr. Robert Giuffrida Professor of Foreign Languages good for them to learn. In truth, students care for teachers as teachers care for students and it is a good symbiosis. In years to come each student will recall fondly or sadly his/her experience with this or that teacher and assess that experience as aprt of life. At whatever stage of life one may be, it is a fine feeling to stop and look around the campus in the fall and see many persons who are seeking so many things. For some the social atmosphere, for others athletics, for others the novelty of the unknown, still others apparently vegetating, still are willing to give college a chance to work any magic it may possess. Whatever one may have as an attitude today may metamorphose by next month. Some will be turned on, others turned off. College is a society like any other society and it has as much variety. At the opening of classes I hear faculty mutter, “They’re looking younger all the time!” I disagree. When I began to teach I was the same age as my oldest student. Now I am older than the father of many of my students. I even have students older than myself. And so what? It would be the ultimate rror to think that the world belongs to the seventeen-year-old an-d equally flimsy to gear thinking toward the older or non-traditional population. Education can embrace everyone and offer to each person something to improve the quality of life. That is in its very nature. As I enter my classes for the 19th year on the campus of Corning Community College and look forward to rounding out a quarter of a century as a college professor I can conjure from the dim past, the eternal seeker after youth, Ponce de Leon, who longed for that spring or fountain from which would spurt a fluid which would guarantee him eternal youth. Look no furthur, Ponce baby! Come to any college campus and watch the academic year being reborn, like the seasons and all the natural creatures. Here’s your fountain of youth.

RED BARON NOTES The Intercollegiate Athletic Department at Corning Community College will sponsor ten sports for men and women during the 1980-1981 academic year. For men, we have basketball, baseball, bowling, cross country running, and wrestling. The women's program includes basketball, bowling, cross country running, softball and volleyball. Last year we were fortunate to have members of seven of our ten teams represent Corning at Regionals, with four going on to National competition. Five of our athelets were selected as All Americans in the 1979-1980 year, with one establishing a National record. Five were selected to the All Region Team, and eight to the All Penn-York Team. Our athletic program emphasizes the schoilar aspect to our athletes. As we all know, a very small percentage of the young men and women which we deal with yearly, will ever move into professional ranks. Therefore, our main goal is to provide a solid education for our students and secondly provide the best athletic program possible. MEN’S AND WOMEN’S CROSS COUNTRY-Un-der the direction of John Polo, who will begin his second season. Although the newest sport on campus, it has already established itself on a Regional and National level, particularly the women’s team. MEN’S AND WOMEN’S BOWLING-Will be coached by Beverly Beebe in her eighth year of CCC coaching. Her teams have been the winningest on campus as they have successfully battled in Penn York, Region III and nationally. This year’s team should be ablend of experienced, upper-class palyers combined class players combined with talented Freshmen. MENS BASKETBALL— Wayne Kenner will be starting his eleventh campaign as head basketball coach on the Spencer Hill campus. Kenner will have four starters from last years team, to be supported by a group of talented freshmen. Without a doubt, this year's team will supply him with more depth than any other team in the past. Barring injuries and academic problems, the Red Barons should improve their 23-10 record. WOMENS BASKETBALL— This will be the seventh year at the helm of the women's basketball program for Hugh Fullerton. This year's squad, although lacking in experience, appears to be quite talented and will be the biggest team to represent Corning. Fullerton has his eyes on Regionals, which escaped him by two games last season. WRESTLING-Under the direction of Dominic Scolaro beginning his fifth year at the helm of the varsity program at Corning. The team is just a reminder., do we have your heath form on file? your family physician can mail the form to the college or it may be hand-delivered to the student health office in the gym. looking forward to a winning season as it appears all weight classes will be covered. SOFTBALL-Under the leadership of Pat Templeton and Mary Gail Lee, it has become a Regional cotender as of last season. As they were narrowly defeated by Erie Comminity College at Regionals, they showed skill and percision in their game. The coaches look forward to picking up where they left off last season. WOMEN’S VOLLEY-BALL-Coached by Mary Gail Lee whose teams have been strong contenders in the past six years in Region III competition. In the 1976-77 season, her team advanced to the National Finals in California. This year’s team should be exciting with talented players although young and inexperienced. The team’s first home game will be October 2 against Elmira College at 7:00 pm. BASEBALL— Jim Allan will be leading the Red Baron baseball team this season, after being the assistant coach for four years. The team hopes to regain a Regional bid, which slipped away last year in the closing weeks. $100 $50 $25 $1^5 ^our**' First Place Second Place Third Place $10Fi,,h American Collegiate $oet£ Sntfjologp ^ s-px International Publications is sponsoring a National College $oetrp Content ---Fall Concours1980- open to all college and university students desiring to have their poetry anthologized.

MARK FIORILLO SPORTS EDITOR There’s more to it than you think Another semester has started here at CCC. For you new people the hassle of the first week with schedule changing and book buying was hellish. For those of you who were here before it was also hellish but you knew what to expect this time. Now that two weeks have passed, it’s time to look into the great opportunities here at CCC, particularly the Sports and Recreation Program. Most of the students concentrating on getting credits and transfering have no idea how outstanding the sports facilities are here at CCC. This is a problem. Too much work can be just as harmful as not enough work. Sports and recreation can be your escape to let your tensions loose, and it doesn’t require that much time. Those of you who complain about not knowing where your $35 Activity Fee is going should look into the recreation program. “There is something for every man and woman on campus to get back their $35’’, John Marmuscak, Coordinator of Receration and Intramurals points out. “We offer Tennis, Golf, Cross-Country, Outdoor and Indoor Basketball, Bowling, JuJitsu, Cross-Country Skiing, Archery, Volleyball, Tug-of-War, Table Tennis, Foul-Shooting Contest and Canoe Races. All this is free, along with the equipment you need.” CCC does not stop there. If you want to be more seriously involved in sports, the College intercollegiate athletic teams. Don’t be fooled by the fact that we are only a small community college. Our Basketball Team went to the semifinals in the play-offs last year, the Cross-Country Team produced two All-Americans in Kelly Bowdy and Debbie Savino and the CCC Wrestling Team gave the College a hero in Olympic hopeful Tom Winnie. Our Volleyball, Softball and Baseball Teams were also top-rated. Not bad, huh? If you cannot give up alot of time, how about spectating? Our college teams are always looking for support and enthusiasm at sporting events. With the past and future anticipated success of the teams, the events are sure to be a good time for all. As Jack Kelley, Dean of Student Services said,“The total human being is in need of exercise, both mind and body. It is with this philosophical foundation that I encourage as many of our students as possible to become meaningfully involved in the broad spectrum of activities that are being made available for your participation.” Webster’s Dictionary defines enthusiasm as“an intense or eager interest”. Let’s give it our all this year at CCC.

For you that have been out of school for a few years, as I myself have been, and for those of you that have been out for more years than you care to remember, you are not alone. Just look around you and you will see that you are not alone. You too, should relax and take a deep breath. It will all become familiar before long. If you are afraid that you will not meet new people, the best way to do so is to join an organization. It makes you feel Ikie you are wanted, needed, and that you belong. Remember, people on campus are friendly. So even if you are a shy person forget your inabitions, but don’t forget, the two years you spend on this campus are only what you make them.

The CRIER Asks* Interviews by Pam Dolley Photos by Tracey Howell How do you feel about the issuing of Sheriff I.D. cards? “The student Activity Fee should have paid for Kelly Pierson “The reasons may have been justified, but the fee’s not right.” ‘Waste of time” Mike Hornberger Ken Heson “With getting liscencea for the dog census and waiting in line for the I.D. card, I was dog tired the first day back.” POWERED ULTRALIGHTS • HANG GLIDERS • CERTIFIED INSTRUCTION Barb Cook “I feel it’s worth it.Besides I don’t have to go all the way to Bath to get it.” “I think it’s better than the old system, and therefore the $3.00 is accounted for.” in profile: Dr. Gunars Reimanis By Michelle 0‘Heron During the summer months quite a few things have changed on campus. You might notice a new tree or two and you might notice a few new faces in offices. One such face belongs to Gunars Reimanis, the new Dean of Instruction. But even though Dean Reimanis is new to his post, he is certainly not new to the college. Actually he has been walking our rolling greens for almost 17 years. Dean Reimanis started his career at CCC as a part time faculty member, while also working as chief of the psychological research center in Baths VA Hospital. In 1964, he was taken on at CCC as a full time instructor. By 1967, he was the chairperson for the Social Science department. Next came some time at Stanford University, working out of a postdoctorate scholarship. He then returned to CCC to teach again, and to become the Director of Educational Research. In 1974, he went on sabatical to Nigeria, where he was instrumental in establishing an experimental teachers college. Now, back in the United States and CCC, he finds himself the Dean of Instruction. After all the excitement of being in a foreign country, working out new ideas and experiments, it would seem a big let down to be put in a Dean’s position. But Dean Reimanis does not feel that way at all. It's a new challenge for me, he said. It gives me the chance to do what I feel needs to be done. This comment brought up the question of, what is it that needs to be done? The Deans answer was lengthy, but informative. He said, Corning Community specializes in nelping troubled students, the ones that can not make a career decision. Word gets around that that is all the college id good for, and that's not true. The college is also populated with students that know what their future career will be. Our transfere program is one of the best. A student who graduates with a Math, ‘Science, or Techincal degree can find placement in other colleges very easily. The job situation is also very good. What Reimanis would like to see done is, that it be brought out in the open Corning Community is a very good school that maintains a very high standard, employs competent instructors, and offers a large variety of programs to the students. I feel very secure about my position as Dean, says Reimanis. This is mainly due to the help and co-operation of the entire faculty and staff at Corning Community. After talking with Dean Reimanis, I feel very secure about him too. COLLEGE STUDENTS Improve your grades! Send $1.00 for your 306-page, research paper catalog. All academic subjects.
