Student Government Elections Underway RICHARD KOPACKO RAFAAT KURESHI EVA-MARIE GRENZBERG BULENTMELEZOGLU BY: GERI SEARLES Elections for student Government executive board will take place next week. In order for you to learn something about each candidate, the CRIER conducted interviews with each candidate. For several of the positions, candidates are running unopposed, while for others, there are several candidates. Seeking the post of President is Bulent Melezoglu, an Engineering Science mafor from Corning. He is presently a SG Senator and serves on the Budget Committee. Bulent would like to see the Student Government, as a whole, participate more fully in ALL activities at CCC. Some issues he would address himself to include; Executive Board members and Senators receiving college credit for serving on SG; to have two Budget Committee meetings, one each semester, to administer funds to the various organizations; and to foster better public relations for activities planned. Incumbent Vice President, Richard Kopacko, is the only candidate for that office. Richard is a Math/Science major from Nichols, NY. He sees the role of Vice President as crucial since he must assume the duties of President in his absence; and he also works closely with the various committees. Some goals he would like to see SG achieve include a shuttle service for socials so that more students can become involved, and having SG take greater participation in socials at CCC. Richard is also a tutor in the Math Lab and has worked as a life guard at the Tioga Country Club. For the position of Treasurer, Rafaat Kureshi, a Business Administration Major from Corning and Eva-Marie Grenzberg, an Electrical Engineering major from Painted Post are the candidates. Rafaat has an accounting background with the different courses he must take in his chosen program and he has worked during the summer at Blue Ridge Consultants where he had office experience. By being involved in SG, he feels that he could help the social activities and the communications between students and organizations. He feels that one problem is the difficulties incurred when a new organization or activity is proposed. He would like to eliminate these difficulties. Eva is the present Treasurer and has worked at CGW and also as a waitress. She would like to see SG put on a respectable footing on campus. As Treasurer she would like to work more closely with students in planning uses for the activity fees and to work more with the Administration, and to build a better student/faculty at- mosphere. Eva has also been active in the Two Bit Players. Cheryl Compton, a Liberal Arts major from Campbell, is running unopposed for the position of Auditing Treasurer. This position involves keeping records of the budgets and monies spent by the organizations on campus. She is Vice President of the Music Guild and a photographer for the CRIER. Tamara (Barrigab) Dudgeon and Eva Phelps are both running for the post of Secretary. Tammie is the present Secretary and lives in Odessa. She sees a lack of communications as a problem in SG this year and if elected, would try to resolve this situation. The SG bulletin board and interoffice communications Eva is an Accounting major from Horseheads. She would like to see the SG as a more efficient organization. She feels that one of the duties of SG is to help the students to understand what is happening on campus and in the SG. Eva is employed as a receptionist at Elcor Marriott Manor in Horseheads. Running for position of Student Trustee to the Board of Trustees are B.J. Smith, Terry Couse, and Denis Cushman. B.J. is a Liberal Arts major from Corning. He feels qualified for this position since he has some knowledge of the people who serve on the Board of Trustees and he has knowledge of politics because of his fathers’ involvement in local politics. He would like to see people stop complaining and start doing something about the apathy at CCC. B.J. has worked at Corning Glass and at WCBA. At CCC, he has been involved in the Two Bit Players in such productions as THE SOUND OF MUSIC and BILLYTHE KIDD. Denis Cushman, is a Data Processing/General Studies major on leave from Cornell U. Denis is from Corning. Some of the goals he has in mind include: identifing the trends of student activity to present to the Board of Trustees; he sees a need for student housing at CCC; and he would like to see an increase in student awareness of pure academics, ie., increasing the number of visiting professors. He feels that the Board of Trustees can help to achieve these goals. Denis has worked on the Ivy League Conference and the Bronx Project. He has been employed by State Senator John Perry, Rochester, and US Senator Daniel Moynihan in Washington. Terry Couse, a Human Service major from Elmira, has worked with the State Division of Youth. He feels that going to school here is an investment and he wants to make the most of it and hopes he can help others, too. As the Student Trustee, he would try to help students to become aware of their rights and responsibilites. Take an interest in your Student Government, understand what each candidate stands for and the goals she/he hopes to accomplish. Elections will take place April 7 to April 11 in the various classroom buildings on campus. CRIER BULENTMELEZOGLU RAFAATKURESHI Supports SG Hopefuls After a meeting with each individual candidate, The Editorial Board of The Crier has decided to support the following candidates: Bulent Melezoglu for President, Richard Kapacko for Vice President, Rafaat Kureshi for Treasurer, Cheryl Compton for Auditing Treasurer, B.J. Smith for Trustee Rep and Eva Phelps for secretary. The CRIER, which kept the best interests of the college community in mind, feels that these students, if elected, will provide our Student Government with the best possible human resources. _ .. K The Editor CHERYL COMPTON EVA PHELPS RICHARD KOPACKO B.J. SMITH THE OPINION PAGE Fears For Kennedy Voiced To the Editor Due to President Carter’s recent decline in the polls, Teddy Kennedy is now being backed by the Democrats. I have never been what I would consider a member of either party. I go by individuals. I have mixed emotions about this new situation, though. When I was in 11th grade (1963) John Kennedy was assasinated. The day that I got permission to marry, Martin Luther King was assasinated.(my husband was black and I was white) Then just prior to my marrige, Bobby was killed. Yes, I guess I have always been a Kennedy person. I remember an article written onec criticizing the American public because we have a tendency to put people on pedestals and when they “fall” and prove themselves human, people chastize them and never let them live things down. At the time, the article was about harassment that Jackie was getting. It was long before Teddy’s situation with his car accident. Here was a situation where a man fell off the pedestal that WE put him on and everyone goes, “Shame, shame shame!” And yet, we have proven that we can forgive because he is now a Presidential candidate for the democrats. And I am a Kennedy-man, so-to-speak. But I am terrified for him. Will some maniac try to kill Teddy simply because his brothers were killed? Is he putting himself in front of someone’s gunsight? Will he even make it to the final elections? Why are we what we are? Why do people kill for what they so demetedly think is a “cause?” I mean, what was “Squeaky” Fromme’s cause...to make a gesture for her crazy “master” Charles Manson? Why is our society so prone to violence? My heart trembles at the thought of what Teddy is facing. He sadly, is the one man in this country who in in great deal of danger. I’m not overly religious...but I pray for his safety, elected or not. Margo Cornish School Before Labor Day? To the Editor: One of the classes I am in was polled recently in regard to which type of school calendar we would prefer. We were asked whether we would rather start school several days before Labor Day and have two full weeks off at different times during the Fall semester, or whether we would rather start school after Labor Day and have two two-day breaks. We were also told that the 1980 calendar was already made and that the proposed ideas would effect the 1981 calendar, and the present students on campus would not be affected. I will not be one of the students affected in 1981, but I would like to express my opionion in this matter for it might help the people making the decision for the 1981 calendar. I do not favor the idea of starting school before Labor Day and having two one-week breaks during the Fall semester. If a student should by lucky enough to have a summer job, he/she would have to quit earlier than he/she would if school started after Labor Day. This would result in the loss of possibly two week’s pay. It is true that two weeks off from school would be nice in the Fall, but it would be impossible to work during a break of one week at a time. In this day of soaring prices, it seems reasonable to let the hard working student work as long as he or she can. Most likely the student is working to help pay for his or her education, so why hinder such a worthwhile endeaveor? Diane Zeh (More letters on page 3) THANKS, CRIER The 1979-80 school year is rapidly coming to an end and with this in mind it seems only fair that I thank-you Mike and Geri and your whole Crier staff fora job well done. During the several years I have been at Corning Community College both as a student in the 1962-64 period and as Director of Recreation and Intram! "ils since 1974 the Crier under your direction and leadership had the finest paper that I have ever seen on this campus. Not only was the Crier superior but you as individuals demonstrated a high quality of professionalism and your PR was excellent. As you and your staff look back over the 1979-80 school year you sure have a great deal to be proud of. Your successors will have some pretty big shoes to fill. Again Mike and Geri and the whole Crier Staff THANK-YOU for a job well done. Sincerely John G. Marmuscak the CRIER PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF CORNING COMMUNITY COLLEGE MICHAEL J.

Rebuttal On Instructor Respect TO THE EDITOR: I would like to share my feelings in respect to Michele O’Heron’s guest editorial on students’ respect for teachers in last week’s edition of the CRIER. When I read words such as “have to”, “our little minds”, “should show respect”, “instructors put up with a ‘lot of bull’ from us”, “who was right?”, etc. questions such as the following start forming in my mind: Who says I have to or should show respect to someone if they do not show respect to me? Who says my mind as a student is any more little than the instructor’s mind? I wonder if we often confuse intelligence (the ability to act purposefully, to think rationally and to deal effectively with one’s en-viroment) with training in a particular field? Who says instructors put up with“bull” from anyone? Most of the instructors I am acquainted with at Corning Community College are autonomous and authentic individuals who do not allow others to victimize them. People who are “put upon,” I feel, probably have taught others to treat them in that fashion. Who says there is any right or wrong? The question may rather be, “How can we effectively solve this problem?” Our culture seems to transmit to students that they are to play a submissive role and are expected to react negatively to the learning process. One teacher, on the first day of school, announced the following to the class: “This is not a class you can ‘fool around’ in; I expect your homework done every day. Is that clear!” How does the teacher know before any work has been assigned that the students in that particular class do not want to learn? Doesn’t a person usually follow through with the behavior that is expected of him/her? If a teacher has taken for granted that students will not be attentive or that homework will not be done then perhaps students decide that being interested in learning in that class is not expected. What happens inside students when teachers transact in an authoritarian manner with them? Dr. Muriel James and Dr. Dorothy Jongeward, psychologists, believe that students often collect “putdown” and resen- tments and then feel justivied in “cashing” them in for a prize such as flunking a test, being late continuously for class, striking out at someone, destroying public property, wrecking a car or “get- ting high” on drugs or alcohol. I have observed that the way students behave in various classes seems to depend a great deal on the teachers’ attitude toward them. Domination patterns similViarly show through in other relationships in our culture such as those between parent/child, husband/wife, super-visor/worker, doc- tor/patient and etc. Dr. Ginot, author of TEACHER AND CHILD, believes that a wise teacher or any authority figure talks with students or fellow human beings the way he/she would talk with visitors in his/her home. Although I have seen some trace of teacher domination patterns showing through at Corning Community College, I feel good about more often being treated by teachers as a fellow human being. Sue Elizabeth Townsend Senator Kennedy Write On His Issues Dear Mr. Editor, Last fall I announced my candidacy for the Presidency of the United States. The reasons behind my decision should be apparent now more than ever before. I believe that the decade before us is going to be one of the most dangerous in our history. Young people will graduate into the worst economy of any student generation since the Depression. Job opportunities for college graduates are the bleakest since WW II. Unemployment is mounting toward 71/2 percent. The rate of inflation is nearly 20 percent, which will mean smaller numbers of college students, for few will be able to pay escalating tuition costs. In my campaign, I have attempted to face up to the serious and long-term damage inflation is inflicting on Americans. I have spoken out for an anti-inflation program which will clamp an immediate freeze and later controls on prices, profits, dividends, interest rates, rents and wages. My program will cut inflation in half in less than 2 months. All of us are hurt by Carter inflation and Carter unemployment, but young -people face other special problems. Foremost is the President’s plan for draft registration. I remain unequivocally opposed to peacetime registration and to the draft that will surely follow. At best, we would save 13 days in the event of mobilization. Even President Carter’s Selective Service Director and his Sec. of Defense opposed the plan before the President forced them to reverse their positions. And let us be clear on just exactly what the issue is here. The President has said there is no relation between registration and an actual draft. But his own national security advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, revealed Carter’s true motives. When the Administration invited student leaders to the White House, Brzezinski asked how many fovored a volunteer army--all hands went up. When he asked how many would volunteer, fewer hands went up. “That’s why we need a draft,” Brzezinski replied. This is an outrageous kind of policy. I am fed up with politicians who create war scares to justify a failing foreign policy. Nor is this danger inconsequential. What if the recent confusion between the President, Sec. of State, and our UN Ambassador over Isreal had actually occurred between Washington ana Moscow, and the issue was Pakistan? Would we have followed the advice of Jimmy Carter’s chief advisor, Clark Clifford, and gone to war? My policy will be coherent,clear and convincing to our enemies as well as our allies. There will be no “mistakes” or “lack of communication” in my administration. A second issue is nuclear power. Unlike Jimmy Carter, I do not see nuclear power as part of America’s energy future. Accordingly, I have proposed a two-year moratorium on the licensing of new nuclear construction and have called for a phasing out of all plants as new energy sources are phased in. Thus, in New Hampshire, I called for conversion of the Seabrook Nuclear Plant to coal; I make the same call for a changeover of New York’s nuclear plants. To reduce our dependence on OPEC oil, I have called for a mandatory program of conservation without delay. This would include a system of gasoline rationing--not rationing by price, as the Administration has decreed, but rather in a way that demands a fair sacrifice from all Americans--by supply. In addition, we need to provide cash assistance to low-income families, to give tax credits for wood stoves and to make a major commitment to solar and hydro power. My energy plan means jobs--and there are more jobs in protecting the environment than in destroying it. I am pledged to see a greater role for young people and women to participate in our society. My record has been clear: in 1971 I was a sponsor of the 26th Amendment extending the vote to 18 year-olds; from the outset, I have supported the ERA amendment and cosponsored the extension of that ratification date. I was the initial sponsor of the ORIGINAL Guaranteed Student Loan program and have always fought for the National Direct Student Loan program. I have called for a comprehensive health program for all Americans. We often hear talk of vision in the presidency. That is not a matter of rhetoric, or pat sentiments. At the heart of national vision are the deeds that people can see done in theirown lifetime. Sincerely, EDWARD M. KENNEDY Financing Your College Education By: Genevieve Smith Do you need some financial assistance? There are many programs here to help you. At the Financial Aid Office the student will find qualified counselors to help him. Barbara Snow says, “If you haven’t applied in time so that your funds are available when school begins, it can be VERY hard to meet expenses. The college has only a limited ability to provide assistance on a temporary basis. Students should apply to all available programs.” New York State offers a grant called TAP. TAP stands for Tuition Assistance Program. This is designed to help the full-time student. In order to qualify, the student must live in New York State. Grants vary according to the income you earn. To apply, the student needs to fill out the HESC form. The Higher Education Services Corporation must approve of the program you choose in order to receive any money at all. The student is allowed up to eight years of aid. The amount of money received can vary from $200 up to one year’s tuition (which at CCC is $800). Applications must be filled out each year. NYSHESC is a loan that any New York State resident can apply for. The New York State Higher Education Services Corporation will loan students up to $2500 per year. While attending school no payments are required, but after graduation the student will have to pay back this loan with interest. The payments start nine months after graduation. The student will have to pay at least $30 a month plus 7 percent interest. Application forms are obtained from banks that are involved in this program. BEOG is financial aid obtained through the federal government. The Basic Educational Opportunity Grant allows up to $1200 per school year. Grants vary according to the income and assets of the family. In order to qualify, the student must show that he cannot afford to pay for the type of education he wants. To participate in this program, the student needs to fill out the Basic Grant Application form. If any student wants to attend college in the fall he needs to have his form in before March 15, 1980. In a matter of six weeks the student should recieve his Student Eligibility Report (SER). The student may recieve anywhere from $200 up to $1800 according to his means. If your financial status has changed before you start school, immediately see about getting a Supplement form. “Students can apply for aid through the college in addition to applying for TAP and BEOG,” Barbara Snow states. Through the college, the student may apply for the Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant. This is designed primarily to help out the student from low income homes. In order to gain acceptence, the student must be willing to work with NDSL or Work-Study. The National Direct Student Loans will let the student borrow up to $1,500 a year. Like any other loan, the student will have to start making payments after he graduates. He will have a nine month “grace period.” The exstudent will be expected to pay at least $30 a month plus 3 percent interest yearly. Since these funds are limited, they are given to those who need it the most. Through the college Work-Study program, the student obtains a job on campus or in a non-profit organization. Every two weeks the student receives a paycheck. The federal government helps by providing some money to the college so the student can work in order to obtain a college education. The student who wants an education, often can go to his or her bank. Many times they will let you borrow a certain amount. Check it out. What have you got to lose? Resume Writing an art will have, and that as you by Diane Zeh “Resume writing is an art, not a science.” These are the words that Joe Spitzer used to start his presentation on writing resumes a few weeks ago. I got to thinking about what the words “art” and “science” mean and how they relate to resume writing. According to Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary, c. 1959, art is a “skill” in performance, acquired by experience, study, or observation...’’and science is “knowlege obtained by study and practice.” Therefore, I think it is safe to say that the more times you write a resume, the more proficiency you write you will develop your own style to suit your needs. Before you write a resume, it might be good idea to know what one is. A resume is a list of qualifications you have to offer for a particular job to a particular employer or to several employers. It should give brief, but specific information of what you can do, what you have done, what you know, and your job goal. It also serves as an introduction to the employer, helps you prepare yourself for an interview, and will help the employer visually remember what was covered during your interview. Because a resume serves such important functions, it is important that it be well-organized and well written. The first step, therefore, should be to organize your data. Two items to begin organizing are your work experience and education. Under work experience, list all your employment. Put them in order from the most recent down to the first job you held, listing dates y:>u were employed at each. Briefly, but accurately, describe your duties on each job. Once your list is completed, keep it up to date. The next time you need to write a resume you’ll have complete, up-to-date in- formation, and you won’t have to start over or have to look for dates at the last minute to get caught up. The next item to consider is your education, (college students and graduates do not need to give high school education.) If you have not received a degree, list what degree you expect and when. Example: A.A.S. degree anticipated June 1981. Let the employer know if you have an average of 3.00 or more. Example: First semester grade point average 3.00/4.00. This lets him or her know that the highest possible grade point is 4.00 Cancer is often curable. The fear of cancer is often fetal. If you're afraid of cancer.. .you're not alone. But some people are so afraid that they won’t go to the doctor when they suspect something's wrong. They're afraid the doctor might “find something!’ This kind of fear can prevent them from discovering cancer in the early stages when it is most often curable. These people run the risk of letting cancer scare them to death. American Cancer Society THIS SMCE COrTRIBUTIO BYTHE PUBLISHES AS A PUBLIC SERVICE Community College Transfer students from the public community colleges are fast becoming one of the most attractive student markets for four-year colleges and universities. With high school graduates decreasing at a rapid rate, four-year in-titutions are turning to this potential applicant pool to help boost enrollments. Unlike past years, however, the private baccalaureate colleges are now entering the low-cost community colleges trying to appeal to their students. This recent development has occurred for several reasons. Costs at the private colleges have risen 30-50 percent in the last few years. This has deterred many middle to upper-middle income families from sending their sons or daughters directly into private schools. To save money, families are electing to defer the private college endeavor until the student at the community college has developed a direction in persuing a postsecondary education. Another factor is that a community college education is no longer considered inferior. Many states have invested millions of dollars into theircommunity colleges. The result has been improved facilities and competent instruction providing a quality of Students education that is at par with the first two years of most baccalaureate schools in the country. Federal financial aid programs have greatly reduced the cost difference between the private colleges and their public counter-parts. This has enhanced the flexibility of the typical community college student. A 25-30 percent increase in the availability of financial aid to middle and lower classed families has allowed the private college to become a valid choice when the search begins for a four-year college. All things considered, the community college CONTINUED ON P.5 TALENT SHOW APC is sponsoring a talent show April 10, in the Spencer Pub.

This has given transfer students new found leverage when seeking a baccalaurate college of their choice. However, transfer students may advance their selection of four-year college by taking into account several important factors. Initially, students should transfer to ensure their final selection is the most correct. Transfer students should have a secure goal and objec- tives for wanting to continue their education. They should clarify the environment and atmosphere in which they would like to live for the final two years of college. Visiting several colleges with similar programs allows comparisons. When visiting a college several important questions should be asked. How does the college view the transfer student? Are they members or potential contributing members of the academic community? What types of programs and services are offered transfer students?

Baseball Season Opens Today MY EYE ON SPORTS by Larry French Coming Community College’s Red Barons baseball squad will open its 1980 campaign on the road, April 4, with a doubleheader against Keystone Community College of Pennsylvania. The Barons will be led by head baseball coach, Dave Clark, starting his sixth season as the Corning Community College’s head mentor. Clark has pitched five seasons of professional and semi-professional baseball compiling a 4-0 record and twenty saves as a relief pitcher with the 1975 Indianapolis Clowns and a 9-4 recore with 2.67 ERA as a starting pitcher with the 1977 Pennington Pioneers. Clark will be assisted by Jim Allan who is starting his third year in that capacity. Allan has, also, played professional baseball, playing one season with Kinston, N.C. as a catcher.

Now that the baseball season is around the corner it is time to predict who the winners will be and what teams will make it to the first World Series of the Eighties. American League East With apologies to all you Yankee fans, this looks like the year of the Brewers. With return of Larry Hisle, Milwaukee is going to be the team to beat in this division. Close behind will be the Red Sox, Orioles, and Yankees, not necessarily in that order. Boston filled a gap by getting releiver Skip Lockwood of the Mets. Those ex-Mets always seem to have great years. Detroit is still a year or two away, but don’t count them out. Cleveland will probably be as stagnant as ever. With a good year from three or four players, the Indians migh reach .500 ball. Toronto is still in the cellar and steps are still steep. American League West California had a taste of what it’s like to be a winner and will probably repeat this year despite the loss of free agent Nolan Ryan. Look for Tanana to have a big year. Fighting it out for second place will be Kansas City and Texas. The Royals have been having pithcing problems (sore arms) and the Rangers are as unstable as any team in baseball. They’ll win six in a row and then lose six in row. Minnesota and Chicago don’t have enough quality players to be contenders this year. Oakland will interesting to watch now that Billy Martin is at the helm. Seatlle is a sure bet to finish last again. National League East This division will be a real dogfight from beginning to end. Philadelphia, Pittsburg, St. Louis and Montreal are all legitimate contenders. The Phillies will bounce back from their dismal showing of a year ago and will be the team to beat. The Pirates will return the same lineup as last year with the exception of Rennie Stennent and pitcher Bruce Kison. St. Louis acquired Bobby Bonds over the winter and he could be the hitter they need. Montreal simply ran out of gas last year. Ron LeFlore could help make a difference. The Cubs need more than Sutter and Kingman. The Mets have new owners and that’s about the only thing that’s new with them. National League West It looks like a two team race between the Dodgers and Houston. Los Angelos filled two big gaps in their armor with starter Dave Goltz and reliever Don Stanhouse. With the rest of the team intact, they will be the team to beat. Houston is now loaded with pitchers now that they have Ryan, but they don’t have enough bats to carry them all the way. Cincinnati and San Francisco will be heard from, but not loud enough. San Diego and Atlanta will battle each otner to stay out of the cellar. This year will be a great one for baseball fans and it looks like we may have four real exciting pennant races. Look for teams trying to jump out to an early lead.
