Christ ThejKing ChapelCelebrates AnniversaryFran MoaveroOne specific edifice was erectedon the campus half a century ago.Today it celebrates its existence.Christ the King Chapel willcelebrate its 50th anniversary Sun-day, December 11, at 11 a.m.To recognize the event, FatherChuck Schmitt, chaplain of Mer-cyhurst College and Father JohnHilbert, chaplain of the Sisters ofMercy, will concelebrate the massthis Sunday. * &&-Father Schmitt said the chapel'sanniversary is being celebratedthis week because it will be the lastday everyone is here together in1983. f All the Sisters of Mercy andthose who have served the collegecommunity for many years havebeen invited to this Sundays mass.Dec. 11 marks the third week of

advent. The pink advent candlewill be lit signifying the Christmasseason. This is a time of rejoicing,said Sr. Elizabeth Linsten ofCampus ministry.Appropriately it coincides withthe celebration of the chapel'sanniversary.'! We have been working hard tomake it a special occasion,"Marie Martone, assistant directorof campus ministry said.4The folk group has beenpreparing variousjjsongs and in-strumental to enhance the mass.The chapel is a unique settingbecause it reveals the college'shistory.Sr. Mary Lawrence, archivist,said the original plans of Mer-cyhurst College by a Philadelphiaarchitect had included a chapel in

now housesserved as a

his design.M However,{this had not beenbuilt when the administration andEgan residence halls were com-pleted in 1926.1 fThe room whichthe? business officetemporary chapel. ?

"By Mary Jo AllenMercyhurst College is preparingto mount a-major fund raisingcampaign to be kicked off in theFall of 1984. The Capital Cam-paign's tentative goal is $4 millionto be raised over a three-yearperiod.*! ?

Gary BukowskiGary Bukowski, director ofalumni relations and annual giv-ings, explained how this proposedfund raiser differs from the yearlyfund drives. "The Capital Cam-paign . is; money, above andbeyond, to do 5 things you don'tnormally do." Possible uses forthe monies raised include an en-dowment fund, increased finan-cial aid, and the construction of anew Student Union Building.These uses were proposed last

yearJ when the planning of-thedrive began.Planning for major drivesbegins very early because of theunique rUuation in the Erie Com-munity, which is the presence of anumber of colleges in the im-mediate area. "I think that doesaffect? the situation to a certaindegree," Bukowski stated. "But,then again the Erie conference hasgiven^Mercyhurst^the greenlight." 5 M I 4The Erie Conference isi anorganization which approves ofmajor fund-raising proposals inthe community% and assists col-leges by assuring two majorsolicitations ^are not going on atthe same time. The college receiv-ed approval to begin next fall, heexplained..Because the fund drive has sucha'high objective, the MercyhurstBoard of Trustees voted to hire aconsul t ing f i rm to do a"reconaissance study" of thearea. The firm chosen is the mid-west based Donald CampbellCompany, which has? donenumerous consulting work acrossthe country. Campbell Companyis presently conducting interviewsin the community, and will usethese results to prepare a feasibili-ty study to be* presented * to theBoard of Trustees. 4^-Mercyhurst Director?, ofFinance, John jMaus, explainedthat further planning of the driveis dependent on the consultants'

study. The fund raiser is "stillpretty much in its infancy stage"and the final goals and procedureswill be, "based on their (the con-sultants) recommendations,"Maus added. He also stated thatthe survey is probably one;monJhbehind the original schedule. Thisis not the consultants fault, hestressed, bu t'be cau se; of an in-crease in the number of interviewsbeing conducted. i ? \The study results are expectedto]be presented to the trusteessometime in January or Februaryof the coming year, At that timethe Board will decide how the col-lege should proceed and the goalswill be finalized. fAt this time, no solicitationshave taken place towards \ theCapital Campaign. But, accor-ding to Bukowski this doesn'tmean that fund raisers will not beheld ' OBukowski continued by ex-plaining other drives, includingthe upcoming Phonathon, are"part of the alummi fund.- Wedeal with alumni and friends ofthe college." WThe annual Phonathon willtake place early in winter term aspart of of the July 1,1983 throughJune 30, 1984 annual drive.Happy Holidays

Children Are UniqueBy Maria SantangeloWhat is an Internship?My internship has given me anopportunity to gain a position in asocial agency which enhanced myknowledge, and provided me withchallenging experience which will

#

IMaria Santangeloallow me to apply such learning toactual situations.This term I have had the oppor-tunity to do an internship at ErieCounty Crippled Children andLearning Disabilities Center. Thecenter offers services to childrenwith physical and learningdisabilities. I worked primarily inthe Learning Disabilities Depart-ment. This department is amedically-orientedj programdesigned to provide specificdiagnosis and treatment for thelearning disabled child. The pro-grams are geared to supplementand support services provided bythe h school districts in iErieCounty.This gave me the opportunity towork with children who have avariety of learning disabilities.Some of the disabilities includethe following: Hyperactivity, At-tention, Perceptual and Emo-tional Difficulties, Memory Pro-blems of a Visual or AuditoryNature, as well as many otherdisabilities.*While? working with thesechildren I worked closely with aspeech pathologist, an educa-tional specialist, occupational andphysical therapists, as well as apsychologist. The ability to workas part of a diagnostic team was

one of the most profitable aspectsof my experience. IfSo, the next question - whathave I gained from this ex-perience? I have gained a greaterunderstanding of children withspecial needs. I can more fullyunderstand that each person has aspecial worth and dignity. If anindividual can give nothing /he/she can give us the uniquenessthat all individuals have.The experiencefhas also givenme thesconfidence that T; havegained an excellent education, andwill be able toput.it to use in anentry level position in the SocialWork field. It has also providedme with enthusiasm and an op-tomistic view in this area of theprofession.I am very grateful to nave beengiven a learning experience suchas this.J | / IMaria Santangelo is a seniorSocial Work major at Mer-cyhurst. ;

Video ReviewMichael Jackson's LatesttThrills'And Chillis FansBy Laura Ruby

Laura RubyMichael Jackson!! * Thus farwe've seen him lurking yn th eshadows of;BILLIE JEAN, andhanging out with ithe gang inBEAT IT. Now Jackson hafljanew image. I IhvouIdfFt' havebelieved it if I hadn't seen it withmy own eyes. Yes, it's true. Oneof today 's hottest recording artistsis secretly . . .a werewolf!!

The music video THRILLER,premiered for jj.the viewing au-dience December 2, on MTV.THRILLER was written by JohnLand is and Jackson. John Lan-dis, who also directed the video,was the talent behind such filmsas , A N IM A L H O U S E andAMERICAN WEREWOLF INLONDON. The choreographersin this super video wereUacksonand Michael Peters, who alsoprepared the dance^steps inJackson's last two videos. Z MTHRILLER starred MichaelJackson andi featured Ola Ray,Jackson's young lover in thevideo. She becomes desperatelyfrightened when she is faced withterrorizing creatures that appearfrom the grave. Of course she hasb r a v e 2 Michael To protecther/right? jWRONG! He toobecomes one of these creatures.In the first five minutes of thethirteen minute video, the full

moon appears and Jacksonbecomes part man, part beast. Hiseyes bulge out, his teeth becomefangs, whiskers sharply shoot outof his skin, animal hair covers hisbody and he nov longer has ahuman-like appearance. Hechases his young lover in search ofblood, reaches out with hisdeathly claws, and .L . and . | . Iguess you'll have to see the videoto know what happens next, fAs the music enters the video,so does the magical footwork ofMichael Jackson, and he danceswith these gruesome, stalkingcreatures. The make-up *effectshere and in the rest of the videowere remarkable. Done by RickBaker and EFX Inc., the produc-tion would have > been nothingwithout them.

Most videos are relaxing; towatch. Turmoil MTV, sit backand enjoy. However, THRILLERis the exception. It keeps you onM

the edge of*your seat no matterhow many times you see it. For athirteen minute video, you'd thinkit would get to be a little boring.But with Michael Jackson, there isno such thing as* boring.The credits at* the end of thevideo say that the persons in thisvideo are fictional and anysimilarity to anyone is purelycoincidental. However, I'm not sosure about that.

Senior S tuden ts WorkingTo implement AssociationI By Debbie HlsonMercyhurst College, in con-junction with the concernedcitizens of Erie, are trying torevive the local Mental Health-Association chapter which wasdisbanded in 1966..The chapter has been startedthrough a suggestion by David A.Pratt, executive director of the

Mental Health Association inPennsylvania. He contacted CanTriola, department head of thesocial work department at Mer-cyhurst to set up a committee towork on this project.Eight seniors are working onthis project as part of their seniorsocial work project.The group believes that the ErieCounty area needs a MentalHealth Association because of theu n e m p l o y m e n t s i t u a t i o n ,deterioration of the family unit,and drug and alcohol abuse.These problems place an enor-mous amount of strain on in-dividuals and families. "The

group is like an advocacy, beingthe voice of the m entally ill, " saidMary Jo Cline, one of the seniorstaking part in the project.The committee meets everyMonday at 6 p.m. in the GraduateSeminar Room in the Library.Although only these eight seniorsare involved now , any* interestedperson can join after theChristmas break, Cline explained.T h e v o l u n t a r y , n o n -governmental organization is

dedicated to the** prevention ofmental illness, the promotion ofmental health, and the improvedcare and treatment of these peo-ple.

Formal Withdraw! ProcessInitiated!At The Colleg^B^^By Martha Camp m "Students know how to get intoschool, but they don't know howto get'otfte"This fact, explained * collegePresident Df. William P. Garvey,has led to the need to create a newstudent withdrawal procedure.Developing $ from an attritionstudy requested, by Dr. Garveyand compiled by; assistantregistrar Jack Beck, the new pro-cedure will include thefiling ofwithdrawal "forms and formalinterviews.Beck, who has taken on the ad-ditional ^duties ofV AttritionCounselor, w|0 oversee the entireprocess."There hasn't been a formalwithdrawal procedure at the col-lege," Beck explained, and thenew process will make leavingMercyhurst a '.more organized,comprehensive choice.-Basically, Beck explained, the

new process- will include an initialinterview, where the student willreceive withdrawal forms to becompleted.Included;1 on these forms is anarea for the signatures of therepresentatives of all involved of-fices/! business, financial aid,housing and the student advisor.This, Beck said, "is to ensurethat they go through all the properprocedures." I1Although the process is still be-ing refined, Beck said thatfiveorsix students have already beenprocessedeand the?same numberare in the midst of completing theprocedure.Beck stressed the process is notintended to coerce students intoremaining at Mercyhurst, but is,instead a means of evaluatingalternate avenues of action.- Hecited the example of 4a studentwho mights be leaving school forpurely financial reasons.

"I think it might help retain acouple of students," he said,"there might be things a hat thecollege can do to assist the studentin staying." 5In addition, Beck said, "It willgive us a handle as to'; whystudents are leaving and give usinsight as to what twe; need toimprove."These records will be kept in thestudents' personal and confiden-tial academic Hie, he explained.Therefore, any suggestions that astudent would make would onlybe for the benefit of the school.^The benefit that* this newwithdrawal process will have forindividual students will be in theassurance that all records at Mer-cyhurst are in proper order."This is so that their futures areprotected, Dr. Garvey concluded."There aren't many;schools whoworry about the students who areleaving .

Thisis th e last thing I expected.'"?Kalbaugh's problems were stillaround tw o days later.

The Blue an d Green went toBuffalo to oppose th e Bulls. Th efirst stanza seemed to be a con-tinuation o f th e St. Vincent game.There were eight Laker tur-novers in the first half, as !th eteam fell behind 29-38. |The second session was a dif-ferent story, a s th e Lakers playedperhaps their best half o f the year.Led by the play o f Marty Camsan d th e shooting o f John Green,th e 'Hurst battled back to take a56-51 advantage late in th e game.But, Mercyhurst simply ran o u tof gas. The Bulls bounced back t odefeat th e Lakers, 66-64.Kalbaugh is looking forward t oreturning to th e campus center,where th e Blue an d Green hope toend their current three-game skid.
