HAPPY VALENTINES DAY The Crier February 14,1986 Volume XXVII Number 1 Ohstrom leaving CCC Digital donates new equipment by Diane Lamie On January 31, 1986, the Corning Community College Campus waved farewell to an admired an treasured friend, Roger Ohstrom. Roger left CCC in order to pursue a new career in the travel industry. His plans include a move to Rochester, N.Y., where he will be employed by the Premier Travel Agency. Roger’s job as a College Ad-ministator begin 18 years ago at Alfred University. His positions there were that of Assistant Dean of Students, Director of Student Activities, and Director of Campus Center. From Alfred University, Roger moved to Corning Community College in 1978 to become our Director of Student’s Activities, and Director of the College Commons. Roger also has a long list of accomplishments. It begins iwith initiating the Outstanding Service Award, now in its sixth year and establishing the first campus-wide spring festival — campus-wide spring festival “Sun Fest” at CCC, an event in its seventh year. Roger conceived of and promoted the development of low budget campus-wide “Brown Bag” forums on contemporary issues; the forums are in their fourth successful year, the Landlord of the Year Recognition Award, now in its fifth year, was also initiated by Roger. His accomplishments go much further back than this, his talents and skills are endless. Most individuals have a difficult time relating to young adults; but not Roger. In order to be a Director of Student Activities, one must have the capability to innovate, successfully Roger Ohstrom organize, lead, teach, train, and motivate others. Roger has all of these qualities and more. Accepting responsibilities and being known as a proven communicator, Roger loved his job and the student here. His door was always open, and he was eager to help anyone with a problem. When Student Government President Vicki Vincent and Senator Joan Hoppins learned of Roger’s leaving, a “thank you” luncheon was planned, the luncheon was attended by luncheon was attended by student leaders and some of Roger’s closest colleagues; Dean Kelley, Robert “Doc” Giuffrida and Meta Spiegler. At the luncheon Roger spoke of some fond memories he will always treasure. Roger stated that “most people only have one career in their lifetime, and I am fortunate enough to have two.” He strongly encouraged everyone to follow their dreams and never give up. Dean Kelley thanked Roger for his endless devotion, time and effort put forth towards the students and the institution. “Doc spoke of Roger as a wonderful person and a dear friend. Several of the student leaders also thanked Roger for the countless hours of work he devoted to Student Activi ties. Serving as an advisor for Student Government and A.P.C., Roger worked endless hours to help pull many events together. Dean Kelley said Roger deserved an award for attending the largest number of socials. His job made him work closely with the students. Roger also worked on several other projects. He was actively involved with Peer Advising and the improvements of the Large Lounge. Roger’s ’’proudest” involvement is “Sun Fest”, which he began in 1979. Some of the “extras” Roger enjoys are cross-country skiing, bowling and playing volleyball. He is also a varsity high school basketball official. Roger started running last spring and has even competed in 10K races when he can. Roger plans to spend more time developing his running talents. Roger has also worked at the Hornell YMCA serving as a Director of Health and Physical Education. Everyone here at CCC wants to wish Roger the best in whatever he does. Roger can always count on the students here to never forget his tenderness or his good-hearted ways. Your never-ending support will be a memory the students of CCC shall forever remember. Thank you, Roger, for being our special friend. Corning Community College is the recipient of a $110,000 package of computing equip-, ment, donated by The digital Equipment Corporation.

The new equipment will be networked with the Axed ? campus computer system. In accepting the gift on behalf of the College, President Donald H. Hangen praised Digital’s generous support of education. He said “The Corporation has played an integral part in the development of the College’s computer system and has provided expert assistance in the implementation of quality educational and administrative programs.” by Doreen DiNardo Yes, incurable romantics and prospective lovers, it’s Valentine’s Day again. Time to get dressed up in pink and red clothes, get all mushy, and spend hard-earned big bucks on Hallmark cards and Fanny Farmer chocolates. But before you fork over the money to purchase these gift items (whose prices the retailers have inflated, just for you and your sweetheart), take a few minutes to learn about the history of Saint Valentine’s Day. Exactly what prompted the greeting-card industry to invent this very profitable holiday? A couple of beheadings, that’s what. There were actually two Saint Valentines, both back in the days of the Romans. One was a priest under Emperor Claudius II in the 200’s. He was jailed and beheaded by the Romans in A.D. 270. The other Saint Valentine was a bishop of Terni, Italy. He was persecuted for converting a Roman family to Christianity, and executed in A.D. 273. The Roman Catholic church honors these two saints on February 14. February *15 is the date of Lupercalia, an ancient Roman Festival which honors Juno, the Roman goddess of women and marriage, and Pan, the god of nature. What this festival and a couple of beheadings have in common is anybody’s guess, but nonetheless, come the 1800’s, greeting card manufacturers saw fit to designate February 14 as the day to send your favorite Civil War sweetie a loving card. And the tradition continues to this day. So whip out that wallet and slap down a few for some roses, because it only happens once a year, and after all, it’s only money. Besides, two poor guys gave their heads up so that you could have a holiday. Kinda takes the romance out it, doesn’t it? STUDENT NEWS The Crier-February 14,1986 2 Shuttle Tragedy by Michelle Huston It was a day uncharacteristically quiet in Spencer Put; a group of chairs huddled around the big screen T.V. Everyone watched as the Challenger space shuttle was given clearance to lift off at 11:38 a.m.' Tuesday, January 28th from Cape Canaveral, Florida. All of American watched as the ten story structure, carrying roughly a half million gallons of fuel, lifted gracefully from the pad after being denied flight six times through the weekend. It carried aboard a six-person crew with a seventh position being given to Christa being given to Christa mcAulif-fe, the first teacher to be awarded the position through1 the “teachers in space’’ the “teachers in space” program. As astonished onlookers gawked at the spectacle of liftoff, mission 51-L appear to be functioning normally. About 75 seconds into flight, however, just after being given the command to give the rockets full thrust, the shuttle exploded in a ball of fire that was so sudden that even slow motion cameras later had trouble depicting the exact moment of ignition. The crowd gathered in the VIP stands below did not know that tragedy had struck ’til some 15 to 20 minutes later when NASA officials reached the parents of McAuliffe and told them of the accident, and that none of the crew was suspected as having survived, the news spread through the crowd consisting of family, friends, and about 100 teachers that has applied for the position of the first teacher in space and had been denied the seat. Somewhat cruelly, cameras were being focused on the faces of the crowd when the news was announced. American was seeing first hand the unannounced tears of McAuliffe’s parents and sister, and viewers, too, were crying. It was a sobering event. All afternoon networks broadcast footage of the lift off and explosion and quickly pulled in semi-experts from the field to conduct live interviews. Also shown were tapes from McAuliffe’s training, her acceptance speech, her husband’s thoughts about his wife in space, and the faces of school children who took her to be their own teacher, to be their personal friend, to be their heroine and private mentor. At 4 o’clock, Jesse Moore came onto the air to answer as many of the answer as many of the questions from the press as possible. President Reagan followed with a speech and the announcement that his State of the Union address would be postponed for a week. Many people were afraid that the tragedy would mean the end of the new program that McAuliffe had been representing. Instead, there has been an increased effort to bring space into the minds and hearts of school children. A “pennies for space” program was started in Bath, New York, and has spread all across the nation in an attempt to help fund the attempt to help fund the building of a new shuttle. It is expected that the shuttle developed a leak in the seam of one of its rockets, producing what one expert described as a, “6,000 degree blow torch.” The debris fell for some hour and a half into the waters east of Florida. All material is being BINGO DURANGO by Paula Morrison Recently, Bingo Durango, a relatively new and locally based group, played at a private party in Syracuse. This is the second time the group has played at this house. Tim Mortensen and I were there to observe their performance and find out about the members of the band. The house where the party took place is located on the grounds of Syracuse University and the parties host was Mr. Kevin Bently. Bingo Durango was formed about 9 months ago by singer Scott Bunt and bassist Jerry Austin. Scott, aside from his singing, plays guitar and many other instruments, though, as he explains, not proficiently. Before Bingo Durango, Scott was in other bands, one of which is Local Shame. Jerry, along with his bass talents, plays the guitar. He has been in the music business for over fourteen years now, and like Scott, has been in several bands before Bingo Durango including Monday Night Band. The remaining three members of Bingo Durango are Judy Cuer, Scott Mathers, and impounded for examination by Gary Crooker. Judy, sometimes NASA officials and an impartial research committee to determine the cause of the accident. Commander Francis (Dick) Scobie, Pilot Michael Smith, Mission Specialists Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Judith Resnik, Gregory Jarvis, and teacher Christa McAuliffe all died in this terrible tragedy, though it is expected they never knew what happened. Most of the crew left behind families and a close group of friends. All will be sorely missed. We must take comfort in the fact that their work and their bravery was not for nothing, however. Their deaths brought about tears and questions, but more importantly their lives inspired millions to care, to think, to continue. We must accept their fate not as a warning to stop, but as a reason to continue. They were heroes in the truest of senses: selfless, brave beyond comprehension, and immortal...having touched the heroes of tomorrow and giving them faith, inspiring them, leading their hearts into the face of discovery. called “Nezba,” provides additional vocals for the group, Judy's favorite song is a beautiful tune name “My Island.” Judy has- been a part of Bingo Durango for seven months and before that was in the group Monday Night Band with Jerry Austin for four months. Judy has two children whose names are Gretchen and Katie. Scott Mathers is the youngest of the group at age 22. He is the. lead guitarist as well as controlling the group’s sound. Scott might also answer to “Motley” or “The Man With the Hand,” (No explanation here.) Last, but certainly not least, is drummer Gary Crooker. At 32, Gary is the oldest member of Bingo Durango. He has been with the band for over 6 months now but has been in the business for much longer. He has been playing in different bands for over fifteen years. The bands excursion began in the late afternoon in Corning and then proceeded in Elmira where we picked up the rest of the band. I talked to a friend of the band there named Mark Hunt or “Jugi.” Jugi is 22 and wishes to pursue a career in music and comedy. He did wish to make it known that one thing he cannot do is: “breathe under water.” Arriving in Syracuse at 8:00 pm, the band immediately began to set up. Guests started arriving around 9:30, each looking like a different character from an MTV video. Bingo Durango’s first set opened at 10:30 with original tunes like “Police State,” “One and All,” and “Imported Beer.” During the band’s break, comedian/musician Mark “Woody” Woodhouse appeared with his original comedy act. Since November Woody has been performing the skits that he’s been writing for years. Before November, Woody was the bass player for Local Shame for a year. The group’s second set soon followed and lasted even after 2:00 am. On state, Bingo Durango is exciting and energetic. Their style is flowing and yet technically, they are excellent. Each note is clean and resounding. For a band that has existed for such a short time, only 9 months with some members who have been with them for an even shorter period of time, it is difficult to believe that they have come this far. When asked about the future of the band and its individual members, they indicated that Bingo Durango will be together for some time. Scott Bunt said he wishes to make a career of singing for Bingo Durango. He said, “I want to make enough money so I can abdicate from the human race.” He also mentioned something about “A&W Rootbeer.” Jerry also wishes to make a career out of his work for Bingo Durango. He also mentioned hopes for more public exposure and with luck, a record deal. Scott Mathers wants to become famous. Also, in his own words, he wants to “grow up” and “make enough money to pay Jugi’s bills.” Special thanks On behalf of the Crier staff we would like to extend a special thanks to Dean Kelley and Don Childs for their help in getting the Crier back on its feet this semester. As deadline approached, the typesetting machine broke down. Without this machine we are incapable of producing a paper. The paper could have been delayed for some time. Fortunately, Dean Kelley contacted Don Childs of Painted Post Press, and he graciously let us have access to their machine. Also, the Painted Post Press finished typesetting for us. We are vary grateful for everyone’s help.

I'm Vicki Vincent. I just inherited the Presidency of Student Government. One of my first projects is to start a column about what’s happening in student government. I am very sad to see Rick Madl leave and he’s certainly a hard act to follow, but I'll do my best. Basically I guess in this issue Td like to talk about Sunfest. Sunfest is our end of the year celebration. This year it’s set for May 10th. It’s a chance to get together, listen to some live bands, munch out, play some bizarre games and (weather permitting) get a tan. This year we’d like to get three bands, with three different types of music and we’re really in- interested in knowing what you would like to hear -I do however think that Starship and Motley Crue are hardly feasible so lets be real. Well to be serious, about fun that is, we would appreciate your suggestions for a band so bring any into the Student Government office (downstairs in the Commons) in the next week or so. Also we’re still looking for a logo for this years T-shirts and ideas for more bizarre games so bring them down, too. Well folks don’t work too hard and let me hear from you. I really want to hear your ideas and remember it’s YOUR AC-TIVITIES FEE ! Career Planning Madl resigns Student Pres. by Doreen DiNardo The first Student Government meeting of the semester, held Thursday, February 6, was marked by significant changes in the Executive Board. President Rick Madl (very nattily attired) formally announced his resignation, effective the week of February 10. Citing personal reasons, Madl thanked those in the general body for their support and commended them on the unity and dedication they displayed this past fall. After a standing ovation, Dean Kelley presented Madl with a plaque on behalf of the college administration. Kelley said that although he is sorry to see Madl resign, he is confident he will continue to succeed. Kelley also stated that Madl’s leadership made for the most stable and effective Student Government he’s seen in his 20 years at CCC, and that Madl “will be a hard one to replace.” Vice President Vicki Vincent will now take over the Presidency, and announced her appointment of Senator Jason Caporiccio to the office of Vice President. In other business, three sen-ators-at-large were voted in to fill the many vacancies created over Christmas break. They are Erika Remlinger, George Vater, and Bill Whiting.

Dean Kelley responded that he believes the board of trustees is currently studying the matter. Tice also announced the proposal of the formation of a college lacrosse team, and enthusiastically recommended it. Auditing Treasurer Julie Metal stressed the importance of communication between an organization’s officers and its Student Government representative. She also stated that she will no longer be lenient when budget reports are turned in to her past the deadline, unless there are special circumstances.

CREATIVE STUFF... I Can’t You ask me what’s wrong what’s bothering me, and inwardly I cringe at the intrusion. How can I tell you that I don’t love you, that I don’t even like you that much? I can't When I am alone, in bed or in the shower, I think of a thousand different way s to say goodbye. But in the end I know that I will never say a word to you except “I love you.”; a lie. Sometimes I curse myself for my cowardice, but how do you tell someone who needs you that you don’t need them, that you don’t want what they offer you, knowing that it’s the best they’ve got? I can’t. In Time A beautiful girl A beautiful girl dreams of princes, but settles for jokers. They say that love will come in time, but in the meantime sex is all you have to see you through.

SPORTS The Crier-February 14,1986 11 Lacrosse program proposed by Michelle Huston A new proposal is being considered by the CCC Athletic Council to initiate a lacrosse program here beginning with the fall ’86 season. Scott Nitti, a student at CCC, compiled an extensive report supporting the proposal. He has submitted this paper to Student Government, the Athletic Council, and the College Board. Nitti states that a new lacrosse team “would produce unity and pride for the student unity and pride for the students at CCC . . . and increase the number of colleges that recruit athletes from CCC.” In a tentative sign-up last semester, 46 freshmen showed an interest in the team. Nitti also includes statements from Robert Streeter and Joseph Stratton, coaches from Corning East and West High schools about the necessity of a program like this at Corning.

Cross country on skis by Phil Costa In spite of what the ground hog thinks there are probably still a lot of days left to consider cross-country skiing. Often called Nordic skiing, cross-country is easy to learn, inexpensive, and feasible anywhere there is snow. There are no long drives or waits in line at the ski lift. All anyone has to do is make it up to Spencer Crest in the evening or head for the nearest golf course. Cross-country skiing also ranks among the very best of all exercises. Every muscle group from shoulders to toes gets a workout. The sustained effort required for X-country skiing provides excellent cardio-vas-cular conditioning. Top X-coun-try skiers are considered among the most superbly conditioned athletes in the world aerobically. Beginning skiers might consider X-country because the risk of injury is far less than in downhill. No training is necessary to start, but beginners who are overweight should get a check-up to find out if they should set limitations for them- selves. Spring may be just around the corner, but there should still be time to get in a few good work-outs before all of the snow melts. Happy trails!
