Spencer Crest Weekend
The Directors of the SpencerCrest Nature Center have announced the schedule of events for the third Annual SpencerCrest Weekend, to be held this Friday and Saturday, September 22 and 23, on the Corning Community College campus.
A highlight of the weekend will be the appearance of American wildlife illustrator Chuck Ripper, who will speak at the Corning- Painted Post East High School auditorium Friday night at 7:30. The Saturday program will feature various workshops and guided tours conducted in the nature center itself.
Mr. Ripper’s lecture will be accompanied by slides highlighting his nature paintings and illistrations. Some of his works will also be displayed. His lecture will be followed by CCC Bio/Chem Professor John Brennan presenting a talk concerning the progress and developements at the nature center. The entire program will be approximately 90 minutes in length.
The Saturday workshops will begin at 10:00 am in the parking lot of the gym at the CCC campus. “There will be a several activities that will occur twice each, each workshop planned to last an hour. This should enable some people to participate in as many activities as they want in the three-hour workshop period.” said Brennan.
The First activity is a ‘Mini Photo Workshop’ to be conducted by CCC professor Dick Luce. This will be a demonstration on how to deal with soecial problems in nature photography; and will mark the beginning of the SpencerCrest Fall Photo Contest which will conclude on October 23, 1978. Further information about the contest will be available from either
Luce, Brennan or Jack Wills.
Mary Lou Swinehart, a member forthe Chemung Valley Audobon Society, will talk on ‘Bird Feeders and Feeding’. Topics of discussion will include demonstrations of types of bird feeders and winter use of bird seed. Ms. Swinehart is also a member of the Tanglewood Community Nature Center.
The third presentation of the free community event will concern ‘Gardens: Preparing for Winter and Planning for Spring’, to be conducted by Corning Area Garden Club member Howard Cook. Mr. Cook will demonstrate how to get gardens ready and how to order seeds from catalogs.
The keynote speaker. Chuck Ripper, is one of America’s
foremost contemporary wildlife illustrators. Working from his home in Huntington, West Virginia, he is employed as a freelance illustrator. He has written and illustrated many books for young readers interested in animals. He illustrated the book written by John Terrcs, “From Laurel Hill to Siler’s Bog,” which was awarded the John Borroughs Medal in 1971.
Mr. Ripper’s work, besides being displayed in local Corning Glass Works and Vesta Glass advertisements, has appeared in L.L. Bean catalogs, Fur-Fish-Game magazine, Pennsylvania Game News, Audobon magazine and the Carnagie Museum.
In the field of environmental conservation interests. Chuck Ripper’s paintings and drawings have been used on the National Wildlife Federation’s annual conservation stamps, on the covers of some 75 sporting magazines; and he has drawn some 300 illustrations for ‘Seminars in Orinthology’, a home study course written by the laboratory of Orinthology at Cornell University.

TAT Workshop
To help television viewers better understand how TV programming and advertising effects their behavior and attitudes, a Television Awareness Training (TAT) workshop will be held at Corning Community College. Sponsored by the Division of Continuing Education, the workshop will be held at the Corning Public Library on five consecutive Thursdays at 7:30 pm beginning October 5.
Betty White, associate professor of English and an accredited TAT leader
licensed by the Media Action Research Center in New York, noted that the average American youth graduating from high school has spent 50 percent more time watching television than sitting in the classroom. Workshop participants learn how family discussions may be stimulated by discriminating program choices, and what social values they may expect to be broadcast.
Eight different aspects of the television experience have been developed for the TAT workshop:	Television:	An
Slated
Overview; Television and Violence; Television and Stereotyping; Television and Advertising Values; Television and Children; Television and Human Sexuality; Television and News; and Television and Strategies for Change.
Registrations will be accepted by the Division of Continuing Education and Community Services through October 5. The fee is $20 and includes textbooks.
Study in London
The Two-Bit Players announced Monday their fifth annual Theatre Field/Study Trip to London. This excursion is open to all students.
Hank Moonschien Professor of English and theatre at CCC, will be the faculty member traveling to London and conducting the course. The trip consists of 21 days/20 nights in England with departure dates between December 27-29 and arrivals from January 16 to 19.
During the First twa weeks of the trip, students will be visiting the surrounding areas of Stratford, Canterbury, Oxford and Cambridge as well as London. Students will be required to attend a certain number of plays, with participation in pre/post-play discussion as criterion for grading. Indiv-
idual projects relating to the theatre are also required. The course is a 3-credit hour Humanities/English elective and cannot be substituted for English 105 or 106.
The third week of the stay is open for independent study. Those students who wish to travel and explore other parts of the British Isles and continent can do so at this time. For those who wish to stay in London, the same hotel facilities will remain available.
Students interested in the trip are encouraged to come to the next Two-Bit Players meeting, Sept. 26th at 1:00 pm in the Small Lounge; or contact -either Mike Gilmartin or Hank Moonschien in the Classroom building. All are welcome.

Dear Students,
I am a white male and an inmate at the Elmira Correctional Facility, and I am seeking correspondence.
I believe I have something to offer to all minds, whether young or old.
So, if you have the time and interest, drop me a line. Start the season out right by writing to an inmate.
Thank you, Ray William Burse P.O. Box 500 Elmira, N.Y. 14902 P.S. By the way, I am attending C.C.C. behind the walls, here at Elmira.
Dear Sirs,

Truth for Growth;
TO THE CRIER:
One might call this an invitation to argument, a plug for the CRIER or a quest for truth. The bottom line will be, put your opinions in the CRIER.
A major drawback in being a professional clergyman is the assumption of the public that preachers assume themselves to be the bearers of truth. Part of that assumption would come from the belief that preachers never lie, or that there is something about their education that provides them with truth and the uncontrollable mouth from which it flows and flows and flows and flpws.......’
In the face of that assumption listen to this truth. Nobody has it. But, when it somehow gets out, it makes it’s own claim. Truth authenticates itself. Everyone has the possibility of grasping and articulating a bit of it, but bits are never enough where truth is concerned.
Therefore, it behooves us all to speak what we believe ti be the truth (or write it) - to get it out on the floor of interpersonal conversation. For only when those bits of truth float free do they have the possibility of making their claims on us.
This truth about truth is not only true in the realm of religion, but in other corners of human life also. So give truth a chance. Give us a bit of what you believe to be the truth. Put your opinions in the CRIER.
FRED-one of two cheery chaplains who speak truthfully what they believe to be the truth and who also seek to hear from what others believe to be the truth.
'Shout Out a Few'
TO THE STUDENTS:
Corning Community College needs a good cheerleading squad to support our athletic teams and promote school unity. If you are interested in becoming a cheerleader, you should attend the meeting Wednesday, September 27th at 1:00 in the gym. If you are unable to make this meeting, please contact Allyen Ares in the Science building or Dianne Miller.
In recent years, cheerleading has seemed to decline in interest and a good cheerleader is becoming a thing of the past. Sometimes, things from the past are needed to improve the present. So, if you have the desire and ability to shout out a few for the college we’ll see you Wednesday, September 27th in the gymnasium.

Liveable Truth
V
Dear Editor,
What is evil? Who cares , you say. Ignoring you, 1 say “There is no evil“, or, more truthfully, “Evil is a matter of convenience.” In plain language, there ain’t no good guys arid there ain’t no bad guys.
What? No angry retorts? Well then, I’ll supply my own. OH YEA BUSTER, WA-WA-WA- WHAT ABOUT HITLER HUH? At the risk of branding myself a Nazi, I’ll argue that Hitler was no better or worse than, say, Abraham Lincoln It depends totally on who is writing the history books. More accurately, it depends on which society the history books are being written in.
For example, if the C.S.A. (Confederate States of America) had won the Civil War, I daresay that in their histories, Abe Lincoln would compare favorably with Attilla the Hun.
The concept of evil varies with a society’s needs. Only to a lesser extent does it vary with the individual. Slavery only became evil when it no longer fit with the rest of society. Wars of conquest went out of fashion in the U.S. only after we spread from sea to shining sea.
Does all this mean that we throw out the concept of evil and canonize Adolph? No. In fact, I think that we must concider Hitler as one of the vilest men our civilization has produced. He must always be concidered so, as must Stalin, Mao and Samuel Beckett.
You see, my statement that evil is a matter of sociological convenience is nothing more than a fact. Facts should never be confused with truth. Though facts may be components of truth, they are never the essential part. The foundation of truth is, was, and always will be, faith. No matter how basic a fact is, it takes a leap of faith to believe in it and transform it into truth.
So armed with my “Leap of Faith”, I take my facts about evil and transform them into a liveable truth. SO WHAT IS IT??
I thought you would never ask: Evil is the son of man; and we must deal with it on that basis, not palm it off onto a nonexistent demon.

SGA Efforts Praised
/
Dear Students,
I have just come from my very first Student Government Association (SGA) meeting of the year and I think that everyone should become interested in SGA. President Bernie Van Scoter is doing a great job as compared to last year (Take it from a veteran of SGA) in handling the meetings, financial problems, and problems facing the student body. Van Scoter is using the procedures that would have prevented the chaos we had last year when major issues were tossed aside and trivial items were argued to death.
I can not even force myself to give credit to many of the returning Senators because it was they who should have corrected the situation last year. . . but DIDN’T. It took someone who had very few connections with SGA to make it into a WORKING organization. Congratulations, Bernie!!
Respectfully, Robert M. Gee

The Wilberforce
Snuggled in the gende landscape of southern Ohio is a school called Wilberforce University. You’ve probably never heard of it. And that’s really to bad.
It’s not that it offers any unusual majors. It’s not that it’s student body is primarily black, the oldest black university in the country. There is something much more important that sets Wilberforce apart from other colleges. The difference is in the definition of education.
Education should be a four-letter word. Not that the concept is so bad, but what we’ve done to education in this country is terrible. We’ve pushed and sold education so thoroughly that many people think the Degree is the key to success.
What a shock the college graduate suffers when hts hypothetical education must be applied to the seedy world of everyday problems. I’m at an age when most of my peers hold at least one degree and I cannot think of one who was
More than 270,000 students have been sent award certificates for Regents-Scholarship and Tuition Assistance Program grants for 1978-79 by New York Sate Higher Education Services Corp. The awards made so far have a value of $199 million.
Eileen Dickinson, the corporation’s president, announced the results of the first 10 weeks of processing of 1978-79 applications with the redesigned HESC grants processing system. She noted that awards already issued exceed the numher of awards made through . the entire acedemic year of 1974-75.
As of Sept. 1, a total of 349,482 applications for aid had been recieved by the coporation. Of that total 296,522 or 85 per cent had been processed to and award or a denial with 271,714 awards and 24,808 denials; 30,705 or 9 per cent were incomplete; and, 22,255 or 6 per cent were recently received and being prepared for processing.
The 85 per cent figure exceeds the processing perfor-
prepared for his job upon graduation. Except for those who had worked in their field before finishing school.
Ah Ha! C’est la difference!
Studying and working in the same field is the key to preparing for a career. Let’s face it, there are fewer and fewer people going to college for the sake of learning. Nobody wan® to be smarter, they just want to be richer. Most people are in school to secure better jobs.
The co-op approach to this is very effective. While the student is working towards a degree, he or she spends a term working for an employer for which the student earns credit-'as well as payola. The employers are contracted and lined-up thorough the school but the student is responsible for himself during the work term.
Hence the student gets first hand feel of his work and a couple of different employers. Vice versa, the employer gets a chance to look over prospective employees.
mance on Sept. 1 of any year since the TAP program was created in 1974. On Sept. 1,	1977, awards or
denials had been reached for only 63 per cent of applications received, after eight weeks of processing.
The total number of awards up to Sept. 1 surpasses the total made by that date in any year since the state started needs -based aid to students in 1961 under the Scholar Incentive Program, predecessor to TAP.
Mrs. Dickinson said the 1978-79 processing perfor--mance has been made possible by a series of changes the corporation has made in it’s processing system over a two-year period.
“We distributed applications in April and set an objective of providing award certificates before college registration time to the great majority of students who applied by mid-summer,” the HESC president said.
“This lets the student and the college know how much is to be paid in both TAP and scholarships. At most colleges, the student
You thought I forgot about Wilberforce. Well, all students of Wilberforce must engage in work terms in order to graduate. That is what sets it off from most schools-if not all of them.
In the Sixties, the Ford Foundation pestered seven schools with major grants to establish co-op programs-Wilberforce, Northeastern U. in Boston, Golden Gate in San Francisco, the Hampton Institute of Technology, W&S Technical in Missouri, and Alabama A&M.
Of course, many other universities offer co-op programs but don’t push them. The student must beat the bushes and show strong motivation	to	get
into a co-op program. Many two-year and community colleges use co-op in teaching the technologies.
If you plan to go on to a four year school, you should strongly consider entering in on a co-op program. It is education at it’s best.
T.T.F.N.
is allowed to defer payment of the portion of his tuition that is to be paid by these grants. Early delivery of award certificates eliminates guesswork about the prospective payment, and provides the student with evidence of entitlement.”
The corporation began in mid-August the process of making payments for the summer and fall terms to 300 TAP-eligible educational institutions. The corporation will issue a report shortly on the dollar totals of payments, Mrs. Dickinson said.
This year’s improvement in TAP-scholarship processing was aided by a newly designed Student Payment Application, intensive field efforts to aquaint students and advisors with the application, a complete redesign of the manual and computer processing systems, and the aquisition of a computer for exclusive HESC use. The revised manual processing system was in use until June. Processing of 1978-79 applications began on June 23.

Agreeing with the majority of students who last spring voted to abolish the governing	structureof
the University of Texa Student’s Association, Daily Texan editor Gary Fendler foresees the eventual establishment of a restructured form of student representation. “I don’t disagree with the idea of a student government, only what we had didn’t do anything notable.”
The senior journalism student does not see himself in a position to initiate those restructuring efforts. He affirms his intention to maintain a separation between the newspaper and the student government. Mr. Fendler adds that he will publicize whatever efforts do evolve, “and we will def-

Houghton, Jr. Library and Learning Recources Center at CCC, will air a weekly medical consultation series beginning September 27 at 7:00 pm over CNC Channel 13. The first installment of the series, which aired last night, dealt with teenage alcoholism.
“Help is as near as the telephone,” said Dr. John Steffel, assistant professor of psychiatry of the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois. Dr. Steffel is also a child psychiatrist at the Illinois Institute for Juvenile Research.
The program’s main theme was that teenage drinking is a common occu ranee and those between the ages of fourteen and sixteen are very susceptable to alcoholism because of a poor self-image, difficulty in coping with stress, peer pressure and poor communications with parents and family.-
The effects on the mind from excessive drinking can cause psychological changes, according to the program,
initely take a stand on it.”
The new editor does not expect any difficulties in covering campus news. Regarding the editorial page, Mr. Fendler says he is reluctant to “take a stand for the simple sake of taking a side.” He sees “pro-con” pages, giving both sides of an issue, as a more effective tool for presenting information.
He disagrees in principle with the idea of assigning a special-interest reporter to cover minority affairs.“Whether it’s Chicano or Black interests, it will have to compete with the other news on a daily basis,” he says. Mr. Fendler adds that he could foresee such special-interest beats often overlapping with other state and local news coverage.
making the teen seem erratic and non-productive. A parent can help by starting early in life to give love and security to their children, to talk openly with them about their problems and frustrations and how to deal with them.
Also appearing on the program were a father and son, both reformed alcoholics They talked about their shared problem and how professional help and understanding aided in their struggle to stop drinking.
The series will continue through the academic year and each weekly segment will deal with a medicine-related topic. Future topics include ‘Rheumatic Fever’, ‘Loss of Limb’, ‘Planning for Emergencies’, ‘Care of the Elderly’, ‘Psycology in Health Care’, ‘Children’s Teeth’, ‘Male Self-Examination’, and ‘Little Known Diseases’.
The series was produced by the Medical Center of the University of Illinois and each program will be discussed by a specialist in non-tcchnical terms understandable to the layman.
WASHINGTON D..C.-(I.P.)-‘
“Something to arrest the imagination, to challenge and test the talents of even the most able“ is one description of the new university-wide Honors Program scheduled to begin this year at The American University.
The University Senate has recommended and Provost Richard Bcrendzen has approved the program, which differs from other honors studies at American in that it will draw it’s students from throughout the university. While American has always had honors studies, they have tended to be housed within departments, schools or colleges.
Dr. Allen J. Lichtman of the Department of History has been appointed director of the Honors Program. For the first year, entering freshmen who have a 3.5 high school cumulative average and status in the top 10 percent of their classes or £. combined SAT score of
1,100 will be eligable to apply for admission to the program. Application will also be open to transferring sophomores who meet the 3.3 cumulative average standard.
What will the Honors Program mean to it’s participants? “It will give a high level of visibility to students selected for this prestigious program,” says Provost Berendzen. “It will continue to emphasize the university’s attention to academic quality,” said Dr. Lichtman, who believes the program will provide“a unique and valuable opportunity for dedicated students.”
Students who begin with the program and who maintain it’s high standards throughout their undergraduate education at American will graduate with special recognition.
Like their counterparts, honors students will continue to choose majors and take regular courses, but they also will have the
option of choosing special honors seminars each semester. The three initial honors courses to be offered this fall will be:
The Astronomical Perspective- taught by Provost Berendzen, the course will cover such topics as the history of astronomy, space science, the search for extraterrestrial life and the relationship between science and society.
Personality and Politics-School of government and Public Administration Acting Dean Glynn Wood will explore the nature of political man through the writings of Freud, Festinger, Maslow and Erickson.
Philosophy, Science and Religion- William Fra;:er McDowell Professor of Philosophy Harold Durfee will examine the human foun-dationsof philisophical reflection, scientific world views and religious beliefs.

Baseball
Strictly
Our fourth year of intercollegiate baseball at CCC is underway. Approximately 30 Corning students turned out for the opening fall workout on Saturday, September 9th. Both Jim Allen and myself are pleased not only with the quantity of the players but with the apparent quality as well.
While it’s much, much too early to make any kind of prediction, early indications account for our most successful season ever. Just a little CCC baseball history points up the fact that the baseball program has improved in each year since it’s initial existance in 1975.
Year one saw us with one game as a club team. In our first year of inter collegiate play we improved to 3 victories, then 8 the following year and our most successful season of 10 wins last year. Last season, we initiated what we hope to be an annual trip to Florida.
For this trip, team members raised the necessary funds
to make it possible all on their own. Once again team members will be raising funds for our 2nd trip south shortly.
Assistant Coach Allan and myself feel that the first ingredient for a successful season is talent, and it is there. But talent on paper ( or, for that matter, on the field in the fall) doesn’t guarantee success in the spring. What does is talent mixed with a pinch of dedication, desire, and aggresion. Last year we had to scratch, kick and occasionally fight for every win we recorded. This year will be no different. Each player will have to give his utmost and more for us to make the regional playoffs and that is what Jim Allan and I Both demand.
At this point, we are setting realistic goals. Our number one goal is to make the regional playoffs, which we missed by 3/100 of a percentage last season. To give you an idea of how
By DAVE CLARK
tough that is, Monroe Community College, the perennial Region III champion, didn’t even make the regional playoffs until their 5th year of intercollegiate play. This is - our 4th year and I feel that we can make it. Anything above and beyond just getting to the regionals is a bonus, but not out of the question by a long shot.
It all adds up to an exciting season of baseball
for CCC students and faculty, and, of course, the team
and the city of Corning. Our home games in the spring will be played either at Corning’s War Memorial Stadium or Elmira’s Dunn Field. We’ll be supplying an exciting brand of baseball come spring, and we invite all of you to participate as either fans, boosters or players. It’s your team and how far we . go depends on how much everyone at CCC is willing to contribute. C’mon, let’s everybody get together now and work to make this a team we’ll ill be proud of.
