THE CRIER Vol 32, No. 2 Corning Community College March 27,1989 Congress proposes community service (NSNS) Congressional proposals to get college youth to perform community service are meeting mixed reactions on campus , ranging from skepticism to flat-out opposition. In particular, a bill introduced on January 25th by Senator Sam Nunn (D-GA)and Representative David McCurdy (D-Ok)has served as a focal point for student activists who are critical of what they consider to be coercive and discriminatory effects of such proposals. The Numm-McCurdy bill would phase out all current financial aid programs and mandate participation in community or military service for all aid recipients. In exchange for a one or two year commitment to such service,partici-pants would earn national service vouchers worth "substantial federal aid for college, job training or housing." In proposing the bill, Senator Nunn said, "In Congress we often debate new enti- tlements ; speak of duties. the time rectify imbalance." rarely do we new civic We believe has come to that Other proposals include a bill by Representative Constance Morelia (R-MD) that would provide a federally funded tuition reimbursement for students participating in Peace Corps training, and a proposal by Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) to fund federal grants for community service programs. The Senate Labor and Human Resources Committee, which is chaired by Kennedy, will conclude hearings and prepare for debate March 20th. The United States Student Association (USSA), a Washington-based group that lobbies on behalf of student governments, is determined to defeat any bill that links public service to financial aid. Janet Lieberman, USSA's legislative director, explains, "By tying national service to INDEX OPINION.................................PAGE 4 CAMPUS NEWS.............................PAGE 3,5 PROFILE: RICHARD MORI ARTY..............PAGE 6 PROFILE: JENNIFER JOHNSTON............PAGE 7 ENTERTAINMENT...........................PAGE 8 CLASSIFIEDS.............................PAGE 9 SPORTS..................................PAGE 11,12 student aid in this way, you are in essence drafting the most needy students to do national service. Student aid should be used for improving educational opportunity and educational opportunity alone." Lieberman also charges that the Nunn McCurdy Bill, "implies that all student aid up until now was rewarded as a handout, which isn't true. It has always been recognized by members of Congress on both ends of the political spectrum to be an investment in the nation's future that would reap many benefits. The current legislation signals a rethinking of this attitude." Senator Nunn defends his bill as a way to free students from the heavy debt burden imposed by a federal financial aid system that has shifted from student grants to loans. "And let's not lose sight," he adds, "that the poor will be the primary beneficiaries of the services provided by hundreds of thousands of new volunteers . " Congressman McCurdy emphasizes that the bill is the best remedy for the shrinking resources government can put into financial aid. "With $200 billion annual deficits, (students) should be embracing our program because, if anything, it's going to carve out greater benefits over time than anything that has been proposed." CCC : Another Look Page 2 March 27,1989 The East Rediscovered By Ameena Nalim Dr. Lars Mazzola, Associate Professor of Humanities and Communications at CCC, has now started a new class. The Spirit Of The East, an introductory course to world culture and traditions, attempts to bridge the large gap between Western education and world culture. The course provides a first step in the direction of international understanding in its attempt to expand and internationalize the curriculum. By using books which influenced such great American writers as Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman, and .Melville, the course examines cultures that are more ancient than those of Greece and Rome. The cultures studied predate the origin of Western civilization . It is rare, even in the field of international studies, that one single course should integrate so much. This course includes yoga, tai chi, za zen, history, music, reading, and the understanding of classical texts like the Tao Te Chino. Anyone who takes this class cannot fail to appreciate the awareness that it creates. Students who take the course will develop an understanding of Eastern cultures. They will also learn to coordinate spirit, mind, body, and their inner self. Through the Bhaoavad Gita. we see mankind's struggle for good in this world of turmoil. The class promotes free inquiry of several spiritual heritages. Dr. Mazzola has studied yoga for the past 16 years and began his study of world religions at Harvard University (1963 He published his book, Right SideUp. in 1984 -66). . after years involving India, Chi pan. of research travels to na, and Ja- Quality Programs for Successful Careers Criminal Justice Social Work Economics Professional and Technical Communication These RIT programs offer you: • career education with a strong liberal arts foundation • computer literacy • field placement/internships or co-op-experience • professional electives to meet personal career goals • flexible curriculum for transfer students • financial assistance for qualified full-time and pan-time students Yes, I want to know more about RITs program(s) in □ Criminal □ Economics Justice □ Professional and □ Social Work Technical Communication Name _____ Address .

March 27,1989 CAMPUS NEWS The Riot Act visits Corning "The fastest multi-purpose rising comedy group around." "The five-headed Monster of Comedy." These are just a few of the hyphenated terms being used to describe "The Riot Act", a group that visited CCC on March 21, 1989. The L.A. based troupe's comedy and music is in demand by nightclubs, colleges and universities all over the West. When in town, "The Riot Act" is frequently seen headlining at Igby's Comedy Cabaret, The Ice House, The L.A. Cabaret and Clubhouse 41. "The Riot Act" is also muscling its way into the television and film world. Look for "The Riot Act" in the upcoming features, "Survival "Game" and "The Wizard of Speed and Time." Currently, The Playboy Channel is airing a series of short films. One of these was seen as a film-within-a-film in the comedy, "Harry and the Hendersons." The voice-over talents of "The Riot Act" are heard in numerous radio and TV commercials and, recently, in the "Mummy Daddy" episode of "A-mazing Stories." Of course, "The Riot Act" will gladly sell its soul to any corporate power in pursuit of the almighty dollar. "The Riot Act" became spokespersons in Allied 's Anso IV commercials and followed up with a national personal appearance tour. For AMC/Jeep, they entertained at the dealer's national convention in fabulous Las Vegas. "The Riot Act" moonlights for a well- known Hollywood P.R. firm by putting words in the mouths of famous celebrities.

Page 4 OPINION March 27,1989 From the desk of the ..... It is easy to criticize others, but often we find it difficult to acknowledge a job well done. The Crier wishes to rectify that situation by publicly prais-sing the faculty at Corning Community College for the excellent job that they have done in teaching communication skills to students. A college education consists of more than having the ability to solve binomial equations or reading War and Peace. A higher institution of learning should also be teaching students how to deal effectively with other human beings, One way of doing that is by example. More than words, our actions and attitudes play a great part in the conveying of information. We all carry our own personal histories with us; by sharing them in a classroom, we all gain from the experience. Being able to deal with different personalities and methods of teaching imparts to students the flexibility needed to survive outside the protected environment that college offers. The willingness on the part of CCC instructors to go beyond the traditional classroom learning is a trait to be admired. These people are beyond reproach in this area. Now, the students who are reading this are probably saying, "How can I benefit from all this extra attention?" The Crier proposes this idea. You are paying these people to teach you this information. Be like a sponge and soak up anything useful Take advantage of opportunities to speak and interact with your professors in and out of class. Visit them in their offices. Office hours were designed to do more than just deal with problems that arise. Visiting with an instructor can further the exchange of new ideas and concepts. You know, you can even disagree with your professors if need be. This kind of open interaction between faculty and students is what makes or breaks a college. The important thing to remember is that we are all people of equal importance at CCC. Teachers need students to teach; students need teachers to guide and direct their learning. Only by allowing for the removal of any preconceived barriers does the freedom and trust that is responsible for "education " begin to take place. Chris Farrar’s artwork appears in the University of Idaho Argonist. Courtesy of NSNS The Dean Speaks By Gunars Ph . D. Re imanis, In the last issue of the Crier, I wrote about our new Science Building addition. These modern chemistry laboratories demonstrate the College's commitment, not only to excellence in science education, but also to protecting our environment from chemical contamination . It is the responsibility of each one of us to learn, practice, and then teach others about ways to avoid poisoning our environment. We want our children and grandchildren to continue in good health and to enjoy the first signs of Spring at this time of the year, the way we do now. Two recent events on our campus attest to me that it is definitely worthwhile to care about our Planet Earth and that we can do it effectively. The activities during Corning Community College's first International Week showed us the beauty of other lands, and their people and cultures halfway around the globe from us. It demonstrated to us that many people care about the future, and that we all grow richer by learning about each other and sharing our Gunars Reimanis, Ph.D. common concerns. The second event, a fund raiser for Spencer Crest Nature Center, is proof that this entire region supports our natural laboratory and learning center adjacent to our campus. I urge you to take advantage of these unique features at Corning Community College. Learn more about what nurtures and keeps our environment and ourselves healthy and what poisons both. Knowledge is the most effective weapon in our efforts to safeguard the well-being of our Planet Earth, so that it may provide hope and pleasure, instead of pain and suffering, for us in our future as well as for those who come after us. My sincere gratitude goes out to the organizers of the International Week and the Nature Center fund raiser. Vallee View by Eddie Vallee CHARACTERISTICS OF A "SAFE" AIRLINE TRAVELER.

How can you do this? It's relatively easy--be a blood donor. The one unit of blood that you donate can be separated into five components and then may help as many as five sick or injured people. Your blood might be used in a variety of ways. Your red cells may be given to a person with anemia, your white cells to a child with leukemia, your plasma to a burn victim, your platelets to a person with internal bleeding, or your cryoprecipitate to a young man with hemophilia. Madeline Uhl, RN One out of every ten peopie entering a hospital needs blood. Blood, the most precious medicine, can only come from people. If you are between the ages of 17 and 75, in generally good health and at least 110 pounds, you can make the difference - Be a blood donor. Consult the Health Office if you have any questions.

This column is caught up in the cycle. But enough pseudo-philosophical blah-blah. My point this month is two-fold; one, to say goodbye to CCC; two, to thank those who have made my stay here enjoyable. First, the goodbye. I am leaving CCC like many others. I go to seek employment. Many others will do the same this spring. I sincerely believe that I and leave tions . CCC's with graduates mixed emo- Happy memories, good friends and the successes of overcoming obstacles must be left behind; but comfort can be found in the knowledge that greater triumphs lie ahead, triumphs that can be still a nostalgic heart. In order to leave this institution or any other place feeling satisfied, one needs to tie loose ends and let go of unfinished business. It is my belief that goodbyes coupled with heartfelt humor can help lessen emotional losses. In an effort to lighten my emotional baggage, I'd like to publicly thank all who have made my time here a joy. The students I have come in contact with are truly the people who have tortured and elated me. The pleasure of working together,though, has been great. Faculty and staff people have put up with my errors and unending requests for favors. May God bless you. I'm sure you'll continue to need his blessing. There are many that I feel need to be recognized in an even more personal way. My deepest feelings go out to the entire Advising, Counseling and Student Life staff and the students of the Commons, whom I have habitually tormented and brought laughter to. Ha-Ha, you're gonna miss me! Seriously though, I want to especially thank Karen Poole, who once said, "I knew we should have never hired you, you bum." I also want to thank the Special Services, PACE, and Career and Counseling staffs for everything. Bonnie Eldridge, Woody Knowles and, Meta Spiegler endured my insults, jibes and jabs. Thanks to Tony in the cafeteria for the food and to Madeline, the nurse, for the antacid. Most of all, I owe special thanks to Nancy Lou Elizabeth Andrews who found that I could do almost anything I put my mind to, and to Amy Benedict who has probably endured more than anyone and, yet, has remained my friend, confidante and partner. OOPS, I almost forgot to ask everyone to be kind to Scott Tubbs. He really needs it! I'd like to leave all of you with a saying which sums up my view on living in this crazy day-to-day world. "Smile often, ask questions, and, remember, you always feel more like you do now than you did when you first got here . " GOODBYE. Page 6 March 27,1989 PROFILE: Richard Moriarty by Fred Day Sherlock Holmes may be only a well-read memory but Professor Moriarty is alive and well, and teaching right here at CCC. Holmes would be proud to learn that the professor has finally learned to respect the law. In fact, he teaches it. Richard Moriarty has been teaching full-time at CCC since 1983. That may not seem like a long time, but his experience with law prior to teaching is immeasurable . Moriarty was a New York State Police officer for twenty years. He worked his way up through the ranks of the police department as he travelled around the Finger Lakes area. He served in Auburn, Watkins Glen, Ithaca, Rochester, and Horse-heads, where he retired as the station commander with the rank of Lieutenant. It was during his tour as a police officer that he received his education. He said that in the early seventies the police departments across the country began having difficulty with our legal system. It sometimes seemed as if the criminals were more familiar with the intricacies of the laws than the police were. As a result of this, the department decided to send active, interested officers to school. The program that New York State offered was called LEEP (Law Enforcement Education Program) and Moriarty leaped at the opportunity. The program worked so well that the police department decided to have its own program. Moriarty and several other outstanding candidates were asked to be instructors. They were all behind the program one hundred percent; an untimely cut-back in funds from the state legislature, however, forced the cancellation of the program in its infancy. In spite of this setback, Moriarty did, how ever, have the opportunity to do some teaching for the police department. Fortunately, for us here at CCC, it was enough to get him hooked. When he retired he began teaching full time. He teaches a variety of courses for our Criminal Justice Department. He teaches investigation, penal law, procedure, and, just in case these courses bring a student face to face with a nefarious ne'er-do-well, he also teaches judo. Moriarty said that it was a circumstance of fate that led him into his field. He said that his father was a pipe fitter, and that that is what he always expected to become. After his tour in the Armed Forces was completed, he returned to Niagara Falls to live. As luck would have it, the year he returned home was the first year in ages that there was no call for pipe fitters. He read in the newspaper about the test for State Police Officers and, upon passing the test, he joined the department. The house he was raised in is only a short distance from the infamous Love Canal. We are fortunate indeed that his job as a State Police officer took him away from the area. Moriarty said that just prior to retiring he was offered an opportunity to return to Niagara Falls. It would have meant another promotion and a chance to return home, but he declined the offer. "My family was tied to this area," he said, "so I decided to retire." Moriarty also has his own business on the side. He is a private investigator. He said that he enjoys this im-mensly. His mainstay is accident investigation. "I was involved with this type of thing to a certain extent in the department," he said. "The only difference is that now I get to pick the cases." Moriarty's largest cases since becoming an investigator deal with corporate safety procedures such as the control of asbestos in the work place. He said that one of the most fascinating aspects of this type of investiga- gation is working closely with govern- ment organizations. One of Moriarty's recent students is in the Police Academy now. The student told him that, before testing, he studies the notes he took when he was at CCC. "It was a very gratifying experience when I heard that," he said. "It makes me feel like I am really making a difference." There is Moriarty difference Department our gain.

PROFILE: Jennifer Johnston by Tara Didrence Jennifer Johnston has one thing in common with other visual art-ists; she finds it difficult to articulate what she is feeling. "Language is a barrier sometimes. Words are so concrete." Still, this non-traditional student managed to convey her ideas about her interests in an open stimulating manner . Johnston already has a degree in Communications from Corning Community College. She has been enrolled these last two semesters to take the classes she didn't have a chance to take before. "I really like school and I want to learn. I want to get smart as I can." In high school, a self descri room weirdo non mist." It was art class that became more aware. Having political forced her to keep with what on." she was bed "art -confor-through Johnston socially to draw cartoons "try to is going The lesson must have stuck because a photograph of Johnstons' is going to be published in the annual college issue of Photographer's Forum magazine. Johnston found out about the contest when passing by one of the bulletion boards in the library. "I just happened to be standing there and just happened to look there." For a person who never enters contests, she did very well. Only recently did she receive the letter informing her that she was to be a finalist. The photo she entered was from a project that Johnston did on urban decay for the Honors Forum here at CCC. When asked why urban decay, she answered that she was "trying to make people see things they normally would overlook. You see it (urban decay) all the time, but there's a beauty in it. Look at it in a different light and you see something totally different in it." Johnston got volved when about her art. scribed it very in-talking She dein very n n o c c CL sensory terms, using words like form and texture. Art seems to be a rather personal thing with her. One reason could be because she "puts herself into" her work. Listen to her describe the creative process, "My art comes from my heart, not my head." Johnston metioned one of her favorite quotes. It was something Stephen King had to say about his writing coming from his intuition and not from his intellect. Johnston would like a quote like that, she operates from that same place herself. Johnston doesn't view herself as a photographer, she prefers the term "multi-media artist" instead. This raises the question about defining multi-media artist. To her, it is the combination of photos and film with sound and movement. Johnston is who likes a person "getting reactions from people, to jar them and wake them up." She uses music in addition to her art to achieve a similar effect. She works at a record store at Arnot Mall, as well as, dee-jaying at the London Underground Restaurant. Johnston works Saturday nights, when an underage crowd comes to dance. If she was animated talking about the meaning behind her art, you should watch Johnston describe doing this job. Her face begins to light up asi the words come spilling out. You can see that doing this work is where her heart is at. "I love my job so much I'd do it for free." How often do you hear someone make a statement like that and actually mean it? Johnston sees it this way, "even working at the mall, you learn more sometimes than you learn at school because you see these people and you have to interact with them." She talked about the differences between the customers at the mall and the kids at the club. "The kids have so much energy. It's the most worthwhile thing I've ever done because I'm communicating with these kids. Whenever they have a problem, they come and talk to me and sometimes I feel I make a difference for them." Watching Johnston at work, you see that this interaction works both ways. What she gives them in terms of understanding she gets back. "Every week something happens. These kids know what's going on. They're trying to find themselves at that age." If those kids helped Johnston develop an attitude that says, "I feel like I am doing the right thing and I feel I am a good person", then that communication is working. In Johnston's world "a state of oblivion equals safety and happiness." Johnston said, "I've always gone through life in a state of oblivion and I've always been happy." Page 8 ENTERTAINMENT March 27,1989 Spotlight on Music By Scott Tubbs On February 23, the Grammy Awards were handed out to, supposedly, the best musicians of the year. This year was the thirty-first annual gala. Once again, the choices were based on the commercial response to the music and not on the value of the music itself. Yes, the choices that were made resulted in many music critics throwing up their arms. When is this "selling out" going to stop! The following is an abridged list of the 1988 winners: Record of the Year-Don't worry, Be Happy, Bobby McFerrin; Album of the year- Faith, George Michael; Song of the Year-Don't Worry, Be Happy, Bobby McFerrin; New artist-Tracy Chapin; Pop Vocal Male-Don't Worry, Be HaPPY/ Bobby McFerrin; Pop Vocal Female-Fast Car, Tracy Chapman. Also: Pop Vocal group- Brazil, Manhatten Transfer; Rock Vocal Group-Desire, U2; Hard Rock Metal Vocal-Crest of the Knave, Jethro Tull; Rap-Parents Just Don't Understand, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince; Reggae- Conscious Party, Ziggy Marley and the Melody Mashers. Does anyone else question Bobby McFerrin winning three of the most prestigious awards in music for a song that everyone grew to hate? Faith only sold 12 million copies world wide. That means more than any music ability. Where is Sting? Metal-lica? Public Enemy? Why Jethrop Tull, McFerrin and DJ Jazzy Jeff? I will finish with a word of thanks, though. Thank you for at least U2, Tracy, and Ziggy! Trivia Contest Held by Fred Day There was a trivia contest during International week in the Corning Community College Commons on Friday, March 17 from 12:00-1:00. The contestants were supporting the clubs and activities here at CCC, and the prizes benefit the winning clubs. A list of the clubs and their contestants is as follows: Deb Hurd and David Adams, Business Club; Jonathan Bocock and Mike Jacobus, Crier; Brent Arnesen and Jim Sherwood, Guitar Club; Misty Oakley and Wally Westbury, ICC; Wai Yin Ko and Altaye Tedla, International Club; Rita Wooster and Jim Perrin, Law Society. Also Bob McCarty, Nursing Society; Jason Smith and Eric Loepker, Student Government; C.B. Mayer and Mike Ruhmel, Ski Club; Desiree Rinker and Barbara Ann DeOlden, Two Bit Players; Drake Graham and Brad Eds ill, Vets Club; Robb Craig and Scott Tubbs, WCEB. Although the contest benefits the activities the organizers hoped for a large turn out. They felt that a better knowledge of the world we live in would benefit each of us. Besides, the contest-tants wanted a cheering section.

They ended up in car washes and hamburger joints, putting in long hours for little pay. Not me. My job takes just one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. They’re the people who help our state during emergencies like hurricanes and floods. They’re also an important part of our country’s military defense. So, since I’m helping them do such an important job, they’re helping me make it through school. As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. I’m also getting another $5,000 for tuition and books, thanks to the New GI Bill. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They’ll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I’m in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back-up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000—or more —for college for just a little of my time. And that’s a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. THE GUARD CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.
