the Corning Community College Volume 22 No. 14 February 4, 1982 Winter Carnival Festivities Transferring to Another College? On Feb. 6, the second annual Sno Ball will be held in the main dining room of the Commons Building. It will be just one of the festivities involved in the Winter Carnival. On Feb. 4, a ice show will be presented by the Elmira Figure Skating Club as well as a Tot's Show. Activities include broom ball games and a large bonfire will be overseen by Fire Chief Charles Houper. Following the bonfire, there will be a magic show, Suzuki players, and additional music held at the Corning Hilton. The Sno Ball will be held in four sections: the first will be a (cash box) cocktail hour, held in the large lounge at 6:30. The buffet dinner, including roast beef and ham, will be held in the main dining room from 7:30-8:30; followed by dessert and coffee in the large lounge, while the dining room is prepared for the Sno Ball, itself. The Ball will be held from 9:00-1:00 and'will be entertained by the mellow rock music of REQUEST. Dress is semi-formal and under no circumstances will jeans (including Jordache) be admitted. Tickets for the Sno Ball can be purchased through the Activites Office or Brown’s Cigar Store - downtown. The cost to students is $6.00 and $9.00 to non-students. For those wishin only to attend the dance, the cost to students is FREE and the cost to the general public will be $3.00. In addition to the aforementioned festivities, there will be an open house and candlelight tour of the Benjamin Patterson Inn on Feb. 5, from 7:30-9:00 p.m. The inn is located at 79 W. Pultney Street and is the oldest structure in Steuben County. It was built in 1784, became a stage coach stop in 1816, and was then used as an inn until the 1830’s. _ For those taking the tour, there will be a small charge of 25 cents. Hot cocoa will be provided in front of a roaring fireplace and CCC’s Rick Biesanz will lead the "Harmony Grits” in folk-bluegrass music in the ballroom. Adjacent to the inn is a log cabin also available to be toured and a two-person Albany Cutter sleigh, pulled by one horse. The inn is owned and operated by the Corning-Painted Post Historical Society. Other events scheduled for the Winter Carnival are a wine-tasting at Corning Glass Center and special festivities on a western theme at Northside establishments. Application deadlines are approaching and if you have not, you should begin to narrow down your choices. But that is not always an easy task. In fact, just the thought of making that decision can send the old anxiety up a few notches. Consider these tips in making your important decision. KNOW YOUR OBJECTIVES Why do you want to continue your college education? What do you hope to accomplish? List your reason, putting the most important at the top. Talk with your advisor, teachers, parents, and friends who have continued their college education - anyone who can help you focus on your goals. The transfer and Career Services Office also can help. Having a focus will make it easier to decide where to go and what to study. Transfer and Career Services can provide valuable information such as: the Guidance Information System(GIS) that provided names of colleges that fit your criteria (for e.g. program interest, size, costs, location, etc.), college catalogs from practically every college and university in the United States and Canada, and information on popular schools CCC have transferred to in the past. WHAT KIND OF COLLEGE? You'll want to pick a school with an academic program that interests you. The G.I.S. can assist in identifying schools that have the program(s) that interests you. Also, you will want to make sure a school meets your personal interests. How far is it from home? What is the social life like? How’s the housing situation? What kinds of cultural and religious opportunities are there? CLOSE EXAMINATION Narrow your choice to 5-10 col leges that seem especially interesting, and consult their catalogs available at Transfer and Career Services, Career Information Center - Library, or by writing directly to the colleges. APPLY TO MORE THAN ONE - Even if you meet admission requirements, you may not be accepted by your first choice, this is one reason why most students apply to several schools. Another reason is to pin down financial aid. COSTS - Expenses, including tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies and transportation and personal costs are on the rise, increasing to and 1981 -82 average of $6,885 at private four-year colleges and $3,873 at public four-year colleges. But aid is still available under state and federal grant and loan programs despite federal student aid cuts. And remember, apply early. If you need assistance in deciding your future in education, stop by the Transfer and Career Services Office on the first floor of the Administration Building.

The consensus of opinion in the Commons was that perhaps I should find out some of the whys and wherefores. 1 called Jack Kelly. EOP, according to Kelly, is not dead. It simply shifted a little. Access to EOP funds is now through Barbara Snow in the Financial Aid office who takes the awards against the following criteria: 1) the student must be educationally disadvantaged, 2) be financially disadvantaged and 3) a NYS resident. Recruitment is done through Darlene Charles, who visits 27 schools in the area and takes referrals. Her job is to contact and correspond with these schools and talk with students that counselors feel fit the criteria. Although recruiting has not been overly successful as yet, it will get better as time goes along. What is not there is the EOP office that was once in the Commons building. Last year, it was staffed by two work study students but so few people stopped into thier office that it was a waste of money. The office function was discontinued and now the office is being used by David Perrin, counselor-advisor for the Black Student Union. There is no EOP Director or assistant director, anymore. coordinating a weekly NYPIRG column on consumer, environmental and energy issues. producing illustrations and editorial cartoons. soliciting advertising, assist circulation and promos. participating in cable TV broadcast. Summer and semester internships are available. Academic credit may be arranged. Kelly said, “Five years ago, the state funded CCC with $95,000 a year for EOP. Due to cutbacks, that figure is now $10,000 a year. Students were finding it easier to get money through other sources, such as BEOG.TAP, NDSL. I honestly feel that the state will eventually cut it out, completely. “I firmly believe in mainstreaming. I think we do a disservice to anyone by vaccumizing thier world.” Getting EOP eligibility is not an easy task, however. Students must come into college on EOP...must verify thier status when they first enter college. “The thrust of EOP is to help students who would not have chosen to go through college,” said Barbara Snow. “To deal with a person who has a historical disadvantage. Funding for CCC recipients is for book money, only...$251.00 per year. It varies with each school. It is need based. Looking at all applications, EOP is the only one that requires rigid verification of income, social security, social services, veteran’s benefits, any source has to be documented. It’s a big carrier(paper work) for those people following through with it.” There are 34 students on the EOP eligibility list, 27 are funded, 7 are nonfunded. Another part of EOP is counseling provided by Jane McGarry, John Sar-torius, Joanne Herman, Ron Hofsess, The requirements: Good writing, editing, production, research skills, experience in newspaper writing, production or sales. Abilities to work well in-dependantly and under deadline pressures. Apply now!!!

Said Jane McGarry, “Many do not have the traditional educational backround. There are study skills and acedemic needs. The role of counselor is basically support because the students are often discouraged and confused." People confuse exactly what EOP is. Like many, I thought it stood for Economic Opportunity Program. Wrong. It stands for Educational Opportunity Program. “Many people are hung up on the color or economics,” said,Ms. Mc.Garry. “Many minorities do fall into that criteria, but not always. This is a support mechanism for students who might not make it without support and encouragement. The importance of EOP is that it is there -the sup-port.Even if a student does not qualify for funding, he may be eligible for the EOP program. The benefit of this is that when they transfer to another school, they can take that EOP eligibility admission status to another school and possibly qualifying them for funding there. Wether getting a referral or talking to acedemic advisors, it helps people find thier way all across campus.” “EOP is not dead,” said Kelly. “I’s just changed profile. It's very much there.” ship and organizations.

EOP: A Little Light On The Subject Will This Building Be Wasted? The Crier Page 2 Letters, Etc. Whats it take, an act of God? Transportation Troubles To the Dean and CCC Administrative Staff: We, the students of CCC, would like to express our feelings concerning the road conditions and the opening of the college on Monday, February 1st. Due to the dangerous, icy road conditions on that Monday, all surrounding schools from Addison to Cohocton and as north as Watkins Glen were closed. But, Corning Community College remained open, despite the conditions -the question is, “Why was the college open even though the conditions were treacherous Many CCC students come from outside of Coming, i.e.; from Beaver Dams to Bath, from Elmira to as far as Elkland, Pa. The major routes going toward CCC weren’t that great. Especially Chemung Street and Spencer Hill Road. They too were dangerous and covered with a thin sheet of ice. At approximately 9:00 a.m.; Spencer Hill Road and Chemung Street were closed due to a jackniving of a bus and slick roads according to a CCC security officer. There was no notification to the public nor to the students, of the closing of Chemung Street over radio stations. This cause many CCC students to make the unnecessary trip of trying to make it to the college, and the result of it was students missing their classes that were held, anyway. More CCC students prefer to travel Chemung Street than Powderhouse Road due to the fact that Chemung Street is kept in better condition than Powderhouse Road. Why wasn't anybody notified of the situation at that time? We, the students of CCC, would like these questions answered. We do attend this college to get better educated and not risk our necks to attempt to even make it up here and finding out it has been closed. This has "happened more than once and we demand answers and action taken in these kinds of situations!! Concerned CCC Students Otters to the editor are welcomed.

Return To The Womb Just a note in our local fish-wrapper, -to say some things never changed graduated in 1978 and now I'm back for another degree. After graduation I traveled the East coast from Maine to Florida, working whenever and doing whatever was available. The one great revelation has been that school isn’t so bad after all. That is probably unfathomable to you students who are still in school since kindergarden, but it is the truth. Life is a bitch when you have to scratch for an existence. This brings me to the purpose of this dribble. If it is costing big bucks, over $90 a semester just for books, then how come there seems to be so much wasted time? Are some of you looking at this situation as only a place to socialize, or have you a goal? I see students from both sides. Those working towards a goal and those of you that couldn’t give a damn. The latter is who I address. If the expense has been footed by someone else then great, but why must you make it so evident? In retrospect, I remember the elementary grades where we had to take afternoon naps on little cots. Now as an adult (most college students are placed in this category) I see that some of you find you still need the afternoon nap. Question: Are your classes that taxing? That must be a compliment to our faculty. But really, those of you (Lounge Lizards) who haven’t kicked the elementary grade habit make interpersonal communication and interaction impossible. I realize you no longer need a babysitter, but we no longer have cots either. The lounge was created for us all and those of you who t need your naps, please stay home and sleep. The couches and chairs are designed for purposes other than naps. Maybe if you could bring a note from your mother we might be able to have little name tags printed thus allowing a few cots placed in the corner for you. My point is that after student money has been paid to make this a facility of higher education we or most of us, have outgrown Romper Room. Those that haven't should re-look priorities over and find another institution that in-courages'nappie-time’ with babysitting services.

Crooker - Editor; R.M. Trice - Business Manager; D.L. Mead - Advertising Manager Fellow students, it is about time we joined hands to do something about a dangerous policy carried on routinely at CCC. I am referring to this school’s failure to cancel classes before seven o’clock on days such as Dec. 1st and Feb. 1st. This is my third semester at this school and it seems that nothing is going to change. Why is it that we stud-nets and instructors must risk our safety to attend classes when roads are dangerous? What sense does it make to drive from a distant town to attend classes only to be turned back at Spencer Hill or after the second class period? It is a risk fo our lived and a waste of gas money. I have a question to pose to you who arrived for an 8 o’clock or 9 o'clock class Feb. 1st. How many students were there with you and was your instructor present? I’m sure half of all the students were absent and an equal share of the professors. Why is it that the police had traveler’s warnings for the Corning area and the public schools in Corning were all closed? Why didn’t the college follwo suite? It’s our lives that are being risked! Maybe the whole problem is a result of a lazy administrator. Is it so hard to judge the road condition to the college and notify the local air stations of a cancellation? Or is it above you to rise before seven o’clock? On Dec. 1st of last semester I was involved in a serious accident while trying to reach CCC. Both cars were totaled and ice was the cause. Fortunately, nobody was hurt. “But the fact is I shouldn’t have even been expected to try to attend classes that day. The administration failed the students!! Oh that particular day the Chemung and Steuben County Sheriffs closed all roads in the respective counties before CCC had its cancellation airing. It was a little late for me and my car. As I understand it, the responsibility to attend classes is the student’s. The administration has the responsibility for the student’s safety in adverse weather conditions. Somebody in the administration needs and awakening! Fellow students, it’s time we turned to our student government to do something viable. A change in this plicy will definitely benefit the school. This policy has been the same for the past two semesters. Let’s get it changed. Student * Government is our link to the administration. I know I’m not the only one upset with this issue. There is no reason to allow the school to risk safety. Tim Mack Student Government Checks In Hi, I'm Suzi Swan, auditing treasurer for Student Government. First, I’d like to welcome new students and encourage them to become involved in Stddent Government. Also, there are Senate Positions Open. Secondly, I would like to tell you all that elections are being held in the eighth week of the semester. If you feel that you would be interested in an executive board position, form a party campaign. Remember our time is drawing near. You can see Terry Cannon Wallace, Student Trustee Representative, for more information. There are petitions circulating the commons. The issue at hand, you ask...Well, right now, all those in Student Government are rallying to get the vote on the board of Trustees for the students trustee representative. But CCC students are not the only people rallying round the cause. We are working with several other colleges in the SUN Y system to change this law. Please give us your help and sign a petition. If yoq have any questions about what you are signing, please ask. We want you to believe in our cause and to support it as much as we do. Thank you. Suzi Swan Auditing Treasurer Student Government To the Editor, I am writting this to make people more aware of the difficulties of handicapped students (particularly those in wheel chairs) finding transportation up the hill. One student, have set on the corner of Chemung and First for 20 minutes, was refused passage on the CCC bus. The bus driver informed him that it is illegal to let him ride because his chair would block the aisle. He then proceeded to wait another 15 minutes with his thumb out waiting for some kind-hearted student to give him a lift. The college administrations answer to the problem was to tell him to find a way up the hill like every other student. After calling TNT, he found they could transport him for $12.00 a day. This could discourage the strongest of students from pursuing an education. I am asking you (students and faculty) to show some consideration to those who cannot walk up the hill and give them a ride. Thank You Patty Ward The Warmth of Spencer Mountain It is great being one’s self! After some extensive travel 1 find myself back here on the mountain. This place is a far cry from Hawaii but my roots are here so like metal to a magnet. I'm back. One thing that 1 had forgotten was the r«sty cold that permeates the Southern Tier. Taint no biggie - I’m a Yankee and proud of it! After dressing like a Polar Bear, then being left to the mercy of automobile owners for transportation, thawin out during the 8 o’clock class, and dining at our Commons clandestine chow hall (pull up a piece of floor - there ain't no chairs) I can say how great it was to forget. Somethings just never change - “take Dick Luce, please.” Monday of the first day, I saw Professor Luce in a suit. I thought we were really getting our monies worth or he had been awarded a long awaited pay raise. No such foolishness. It turns out that he requires everyone, while making a class presentation, to look like a professional. Hang on all you Ruggies - we have to conform, or drop back and punt. Ain’t it great? The moths have completely eaten my tie, my elbows are protruding through my jacket sleeves and my shoes have years of dust and crustation covering them. Hey, if the Beatles could get away with formal wear and sneakes, then maybe there is hope. See you in class, Dick. Jim Bramble.

And Don Harvey, one of the principle actors, is also producer for the event. “To Cedar-From Broad WAY-WITH Love!” is sponsored by 171 Cedar Art Center as a fund-raising event. Tickets are totally tax-deductible, since the Center is a non-profit organization. Contact1; Laura McGrath 936-4448 When I heard that there was going to be a Jazz program at the Corning Glass Center auditorium last Tuesday, I jumped at the chance, being a Jazz lover. Bob Rosengarden and his East-Coast all-stars were really sensational! Mr. Rosengarden proved to be quite the drummer and 1 was very impressed, but that was only the tip of an amazing iceberg. Truthfully 1 was much more impressed with the rest of his group who are unfortunately less publicized that the “great Rosengarden”. Among the people wo played was Warren. Vachi, who played lead trumpet. As each man had a piece which featured his own special talent, 1 got to hear this man clearly and was very pleased with his playing. The man's music was clear, full of pizzazz, and life. He managed to hit notes that 1 thought were impossible on a trumpet and he seemed to do it with ease. Equally impressive were the other men in the group, George Masso on Trombone, Flip Phillips on Tenor Sax, Jimmy Maxwell on trumpet, Kenny Davern on Sax, and Dick Wellstood on piano. These men all put in breathtaking performances on their solos, and when intermission came I was anxious for the music to resume. Those who were at the concert may have noticed that I have left out a few very important names. Of course 1 have saved the best for last. On the bass was a phenomenal man named Milt Hinton. This 72 year old man had mor spunk than I’ve ever seen in anyone. His solo rendition of “Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho" had every toe tapping and brought tumultuous applause. I was left speechless. The vocalist was, as usual, the favorite. The voice of Carrie Smith brought the house down. An attractive woman, Carrie’s stage presence was enough without her voice, but she could sing! As soon as her mouth opened, out poured beautiful notes and marvelous feeling. Never have I heard some of those songs so well done. With a voice as smooth and rich as molasses, Miss Smith had the audience captivated and begging for more. There were a few disappointments in the show, but nothing of real consequence. J personally thought that the microphones could have been turned down a bit since the players really belted out their stuff, but that could be of per sonal judgment. All in all I thought the show was the most energetic and spicy I’ve seen in quite some time. It was fun just watching the performers and it was obvious that they enjoyed every moment too! 1 always enjoy a show more when the people on stage are just as happy to be there as we are to have them there. To Bob Rosengarden and his East-Coast All-Stars: Bravo! To those of you who missed the chance to see them, you missed quite a show. COMING SOON!

To the readers who sit back and criticize the quality of this paper, I can only laugh, shake my head, and be critical of you. For every one of me who is at least getting involved, there are ten of you hang out doing nothing. It's a real shame that all you college students, who are so well versed in the English language, won't take the time to improve the quality of YOUR school paper. Each semester, $35 of your tuition is paid for you all to enjoy the various clubs and organizations on campus. The potential for activity on this campus is incredible, but the response in actual participation is at a minimum in some organizations. (Nothing like wasting your money in there!)' Also, this campus is neglecting its sports teams. They get no support. I was talking with a member of the basketball team and he says that the lack of attendance is have a negative effect on their performance at home. Last year, the team’s home games were video taped and televised on local stations; the team’s games were stated with an announcer. This year, the microphones don’t even work. The school’s support for the cross country, girls volleyball, men’s and girls basketball teams is virtually non-existent. In conclusion, I would just like to say that I hope you understand that our campus is not just for classes. You even pay to do more if you will JUST GET INVOLVED encourage you to make the most of your college experience. Go to a game, join a club, or write an article for your paper! This campus needs you.

He acquired the name at Roosevelt High School in Washington D.C. because he is 6’6” in height and his long limbs. Tree is one of four returning Red Barons. Last season, he didn’t see as much playing time as he would have liked, but then again, he wasn’t as good last year as he is to date. Tree had advanced from the 2nd or 3rd man off the bench to one of the teams starting five. His game, according to coach Kenner and himself, has improved 100 percent. He now averages approximately 13 points per game. While scoring is important to any teams winning effort, Tree looks to rebound. He leads the team in rebounds. His years total is now at 75, only 22 rebounds short of surpassing his total of last season. As a player, Tree’s relationship with Coach Kenner and his fellow teammates is good. He admits that one problem arose when he was temporarily suspended from play, but he now looks with optimism toward future games and tries to keep past events in the past. There is always one game, one event, something that stands out in an athletes mind. For Tree, it was the Jan. 20th contest against Erie. He recalls that the first half was controlled by Corning. At halftime, the Red Barons had a ten point lead. In the locker room. Tree says that the team became too confident with their lead and were mentally unprepared for Erie’s second half comeback. Within 5 minutes the Barons lead had been slashed to 2 points, and from then on it was all Erie. Tree seems to think that losses, such as the Erie one, relate to the teams lack of a good floor leader. The floor leader is the person who salvages broken plays. Lasy year it was the dynamic Wiley Williams. The loss of players to academic ineligibility has also been a factor in the teams 6-8 record. The tone of the conversation changed when he voiced his opinions on playing college basketball at CCC. He rather enjoyed the 1980-81 season because the team was in the public eye. This year, the team has no home support and quite frankly he feels it is no different than high school. Tree looks forward to away games because the stands are packed with fans and the team plays off of the intensity of the away crowds. He wonders, in no uncertain terms, if the lack of spectators is based on a racial oonflict. The team is predominately black but the school population is predominately white. It is something to think about. Tree hopes that the readers prove his speculations wrong. He hopes to see you at the games.
