Wrestlers Suffer Worst Season

recent wrestling match. Wrestlers are aullering through worst season.
"This has been a most difficult
year for wrestling at Albany State,"
said acting varsity wrestling coach
Doug Porter. "But looking at the
dual meet record (0-17-0) is not an
accurate reflection of the team's effort and steady development."
Indeed, lady luck has turned away
from a team which has sent several
wrestlers to the NCAA Tournament
in the recent past. Several experienced grapplcrs decided not to participate this year, leaving the team
without a solid core of veterans.
In fact, the 118,126, 134,150 177,
and 190 pound slots have all been
filled with freshmen and newcomers,
leaving the grapplers with vets in the
142, 158, 167, and heavyweight
classes.
"Every individual deserves a great
deal of credit," said Porter. "This is

Indoor Track Club Drops Season Opener;
Pollard Wins 60-Yard Dash and Hurdles
by Ken Kurtz
The Albany State Indoor Track
Club opened its seasonlast Friday in
a quadrangular meet at Williams
College.
"Although we came in fourth, we
scored three times as many points as
last year," said rookie coach Doug
Allen.
Out Week of Practice
The team had only one week of
practice before the meet, but several
Albany runners did well. Jon
Pollard won both the sixty yard dash
and hurdles, while Hiram Pebbles
took the triple jump. Chris Burns,
Fred Kitzrow, and Don Schraeder
all qualified for the Cortland Invitational with their efforts,
Saturday, there will be a
triangular meet at Union College
between Albany St., Colgate and
host Union. Track and field events
begin at twelve noon, while the running events get under way at one
o'clock. "We have an excellent shot
in the long jump, triple jump,
hurdles, and sprints," said Allen.
"We're not in good shape yet, as we
don't have a field-house, but the
team works out every day in the
tunnels."
Stiff Competition
Allen believes Albany will score a
lot of points, but will meet up with
stiff competition from Union's
Stryer and Jones in the mile, and
Moffet in the sprints,
"We should run a good mile with
Bcnman, Davis and Burns running
under 4:30," said Allen. Carlo
Cherubino will interrupt his Olympic marathon workouts long enough
to run the two mile race for Albany.
The two mile relay will be run by Phil
Sullivan, Tom Ryan, Fred Skidrow,
and Eric Johnson. Allen is looking
forward to the meet.
"Last year we only scored ten
points, but with this team, we'll give
a credible performance," he said.
Forty runners are out for indoor
track, and the bigger squad (compared to 25- in 75) gives the team
good depth as well as an equipment
problem. Only fifteen members of
the squad will remain at Albany over
Spring Vacation, training for both
the Capital District Tournament and

improvement
throughout the year, according to
Porter, and canlookfowardtoafine

Albany's regular at 126 pounds,
Manny Cruz, has never wrestled
before, yet has managed to thrill the
fans with
his "novel" tactics.
Brad Beilly has seen action at both
126 and 134 pounds, despite an
elbow injury.
Tony Puglicse has done most of
the wrestling in the 134-pound, and
has shown well against very tough
competition, according to Porter,
and should combine with the disabled Sam Fischctti to shore up this
key class.
One of our best and exciting this
year has been Vic Gagliardi at 142
pounds," said Porter.
Gagliardi is 9-5-1 and Porter expects him to do well in the upcoming
individual tournaments.
Transfer Kevin Schiatti became
eleigible this semester and has seen
actional 142, 150 and 158 and shows
fine potential, according to Porter.
Gabe Natarelli, a transfer from
Central Conn, and local boy from
Shenendahou High, has maintained
the number one slot in the 150 class.
He is a senior, and will be missed
next year.
Junior Nick Zubulake has met
challengers at 150, 158, and 167, and
is considered by many to be the most
aggressive member of the team. He is

wrestled before.

Perhaps freshman Earl Jordan at
177 and 190 has the greatest potential talent of the newcomers. He has
met some of the toughest competition and won many impressive victories, according to Porter. His complement is Chris Covas, also versatile. Few schools have this kind of
strength in those weight classes,
Porter said.
John Natarelli is the most experienced and, at times, most explosive of the grapplcrs, accordi ng 1 o
Porter. He has seen action at 190 and
in the heavyweight class. Other
heavyweight include: Dave Mathis
Tirclla ( who doubles as the team's
trainer), and and Ty Quinn (another
freshman).
"These individuals have all made
great strides," Porter said. "Their
morale has remained amazingly
high. If success can be measured in
terms of good memories, then we
have a season which will never be
forgotten."

Calling SUNY Central Administration a "stumbling Hock,"
SUNY Binghamton's math department chairman Louis McCauley has
begun a petition drive for substantial
administrative cuts.
"The organization as a whole is
grossly inefficient and overstaffed,"
says McCauley. He feels that while a
small staff is needed to handle
monitoring and coordinating of
State University programs, SUNY
Central "needs to be completely
reorganized and trimmed to a very
small, highly qualified staff which
would operate in a very efficient
manner working withthe Division of
the Budget and the State Education
Department."
Underlying McCauley's concern
with what he estimates as a $9
million operating budget for SUNY
Centralis his observation that "Central Administration teaches no
classes."
SUNYA p o l i t i c a l science
professor Bernard K. Johnpoll
agrees. SUNY Central "has done
nothing for education," says John-
poll. He contends that he would
rather see members of SUNY Central unemployed than see professors
unemployed.
While McCauley feels that SUNY
Central should be trimmed 90 percent Johnpoll claims that it should
be completely eliminated. "The
abolition of SUNY Central is the
first major move which should be
taken," says Johnpoll. "It is a
bureaucratic, political organization,
which is the worst enemy education
has."
The abolition of SUNY Central,
according to SUNY Chancellor
Ernest L. Boyer, "probably would
mean the abolition of the university
as a unique, overall enterprise."
Boyer says, "The strength of State
University derives in part because of
the combined network of campuses."
Boyer claims that the reassignment to individual campuses
of certain functions now carried out
by SUNY Central on behalf of all the
campuses would be "an enormous
disservice" to the university system.
Such central functions include
budgetary, legal, construction, per- SUNY Central by almost one-third

feels that "afragmentation of the university so that this office dealing

says that he has cut personnel at MacGregor says that while he agrees
"more or less" with McCauley's petition, he feels that "it may be ineffective" in bringing about cuts in SUNY
Central.
SUNY Central it not the only administrative group to come under
scrutiny in the wake of extensive
budget cuts. According to McCauley, "Administrations on all
campuses can be reorganized to
some extent." He admits that
SUNY-Binghamton will be losing
some administrators due to decreased allocations.
Johnpoll has recently released his
study of administrative costs at
SUNYA. He concludes that the"actual administrative cost at this University ranges between 25 and 35
percent of the total cost."
A self-proclaimed
antibureaucrat, Johnpoll laments what
he sees as a trend for administrators
to be bureaucrats rather than
educators.

says, "In my view, there is not a

company said.'
It characterized some of the
payments as campaign contributions, but did not describe the
nature of others.
Harold Kelley, a former Kentucky
Public Service Commission chairman, said he would ask the state attorney general to investigate the
Tenneco report.
Kelley and William 1-ogjn, who
also served in the post during the
period Tenneco said it made cash
payments in amounts* ranging from
$200to $2,000. both denied receiving
money from the firm.
"1 would like to know when those
payments were supposedly made,
who they were paid to, and under
what circumstances they were paid.
Under no circumstances were they
paid to me," Kelley said.
Tenneco did n o t identify
recipients of the payments by name
or the amount of some of the
payments, saying this information
was being turned over to the Internal

"I can assure everybody that no

The company said the judge, who
was running for an appellate court

The Division of the Budget has
calculated that this has resulted in
400 unused beds, beds they would
like to see rented. In that case, RAs
would be given either a single sized
room free, or they could be forced to
have roommates.
Resident assistants have also been
given free board, telephones and
cash stipends, and it is possible that
these types of compensation may
also be cut for the fall semester. RAs
at Brockport, Cortland, Geneseo,
Oneonta, Canton and Cobleskill
receive room, board and telephone
for their services, while RAs at Stony
Brook and Old Westbury are given
only their room free. The reason for
this is that the title resident assistant
refers to many different positions
held by students at the SUNY
schools. Bristow feels that the compensation awarded is generally comparable to the services required of
the resident assistant.

Thompson, who is leading a student
task force with Kris Mesler; both are
senior nursing students.
The task force is urging students
to call Field's office about the
matter, and has gotten many parents
to call and write both SUNYA administrators and their legislators.
They plan to go to shopping centers
with petitions, urging the community to come to the aid of the nursing
school.

the high degree of student commitment, offer e n c o u r a g e m e n t

According to Marjorie Meyer,

widespread fear of budgetary cuts is
nothing new for the nursing
program; "Whenever the university
is faced with budgeting cuts, we in
the nursing department are faced
with a dilemma. This stems from the
fact that our budget is higher than
most other schools at SUNYA."
But having had past experience
with the problem is no great comfort. Meyer is concerned: "The fact
that everyone is keeping quiet, and
the rumors are not being denied, is a
bad sign," said Meyer. Thompson
and Mesler met with President
Fields and got the feeling he was very
non-committal. They said, "If the

Nursing Program Feared Ailing
CHICAGO (AP) A Kentucky medical research group reports that oral
contraceptives may cause tumors of the liver. Doctors fromthe Universiiy of
Louisville School of Medicine wrote in the Feb. 16 issue of the Journal of the
American Medical Association^
\3yo\sng women developed liver tumors
after taking birth control pills. Nine of the tumors were benign, four
malignant. The patients were young, nonalcoholic, generally healthy and free
of liver disease, said surgeon E. Truman Mays, M.D. The exact role of
contraceptive pills in liver tumors is unproved, he said, "but a possible link
between these pills and hepatic liver tumor seems increasingly likely."

the current theory: there are cracks
in the water-proofing layer. According to this theory, water soaks into
the ceiling insulation, bypassing the
watertight baffles and travels along
to the nearest expansionjoint, escaping down onto the head of the
nearest passerby.
According to Kopf and Joel True
of Campus Planning, opening the
entire floor surface around campus
to locate all leaking cracks is impractical. Therefore the water will be
removed from the insulation layer
via drains installed at the lowest and
deepest points of water collection.
However, actual construction
work is only possible, "when the

The official construction period is
from April to November.

bill is being introduced in the
legislature which will require a
bachelor's degree for a license as a
professional nurse. By 1985,
. programs such as the one offered
here will be in stronger demand.
Organizations such as the New
York State Nurses Association are
alarmed at the possibility of a nursing shutdown at SUNYA. They
point to the high quality of the
program and strategic location of
the school.
Barbara Hanley, who is the
legislative director for the association, said: "SUNYA has a fine, highquality program. To remove a B S
program from this area would be
critically serious."
Mrs. Lussier, a supervisor with the
Schenectady Visiting Nurses
Association said that one SUNYA
graduate is now employed as a nurse
by her group: "1 am very upset about
the possible closing. There are so few
places now where nurses can take
continuing education courses in the
tri-city area."
Some nursing students are
worried that the nursing program
may be facing an immediate shutdown.
Phillip Sirotkin, Vice President
for Academic Affairs, said worried
parents have contacted him about
this.
"For a student in any program
that is terminated there will be an appropriate time for them to complete
their degree."
According to Barbara Pieta,
supervisor of nursing education at
the State Education Department,
the university does have the legal
right to discontinue any program,
due to lack of funds. But, says Pieta,
the university does have "a moral
obligation to at least phase out the
program, or help get the students
placed in another program in
another school." She says that any
student feeling his or her rights were
violated can individually bring lawsuits against the university for
breach of contract.
NOMI NATIONS for the position of Editor-in-Chief of the Albany Student

Hiring
kflMtinvNr
Ever since list semester, the
Albany Women's Caucus has been
fighting • losing battle to have the
administration reconsider its appointment of Kay Norman as Affirmative Action Officer at SUN YA.
Affirmative Action is the Federal
program which provides for, among
other things, fair and open hiring
practices.
According to Caucus member
Frandne Frank, Norman was appointed "without following the
accepted Affirmative Action
procedures." Frank is SUNYA's Coordinator of Curriculum and InterDisciplinary Programming for
Humanities.

Though she has been performing
the functions of Affirmative Action
Officer since the post was vacated
last March, Norman was not officially named to it until October 2,
and.it was December before President Emmett B. Fields signed the appointment. Between October and
December the Women's Caucus
claims that it petitioned Fields to
reconsider the method of appointment, but without success.
The Women's Caucus noted that,
in order to implement the Affirmative Action guidelines for making
j o b s available to women and
minorities, policy of publicizing
openings and employing search
committees for the selection of can-
didates is necessary. Particularly in
this case, they feel that the selection
process should not have been contained totally within the upper
echelons of the Administration.
Joan Schulz—a member of the
SUNYA faculty and the Women's
Caucus Steering Committee—and
Frank both stressed that the Caucus'
objection to the appointment was
based on this procedural issue rather
than any reservations regarding
Norman's personal merits. Fears
were expressed that a precedent may
have been set for promoting favored
candidates of the Administration
without participation by the parties
that would be affected.

made the appointment, feels that the.

reason for such extreme security

my knowledge, since I've been working here, nothing has been stolen.

material was taken from special
collections, in addition to other
departments. Fortunately, most of
the books were recovered, among

at more than $10,000."

snuff.
Bob Schwab, a tobacco buyer
for Walgreen's Department Stores

snuff have been skyrocketing recently, especially in areas with large

The current fad does not involve

moist variety which has the constituency of finely-chopped chewing
tobacco.
The smokeless tobacco council in

Americans now use snuff.

Stay as far to the right as possible.

ready to pull out of a space by watching
for wheels turned into the road.
If yon can, use aloud horn, such as a
Super Sound Air Horn (114 on.). If not,
dont be embarrassed to scream at the top
of your lungs at the first hint of danger.
Ride defensively. Many drivers, with
or without malice or forethought, will not
yield the right of way to a bicycle. Don't

Like most campus communities,
SUNYA has a high rate of bicycle thefts.
Ten-speeds are particularly vulnerable. If
you own a bike, prepare to make bike
security an automatic habit Here's a
checklist for protecting your bicycle.
l)jVever leave your bike unlocked.
Make sure your bike lock and chain are of
heavy steel, case-hardened if possible.
Expect any ten-speed left unlocked and
unattended to be stolen. A NYPIRG
report states that chains arc superior to
cablet, and recommends Master model
number 1516 for use in low security
situations. President model 66-Cforuse
in moderate security situations, and
Master models 83, 94 or America! Lock
Co. chain for high security situations.
Copies of this report are available in the
NYPIRG Office, CC 333, 457-2446.
2) Bring your bike inside at night. Even
locked bikes are vulnerable if left on the
street at night.
3)Write down the serial number of
your bike, tbe make, the model, and a
physical description. You might want to
leave one copy of this information with
your parents, to make sure it's available if
your bike is lost or stolen.
4)Regjster your bike with the campus
police. Registered bikes are much more
easily recovered. Call 457-7616 for
further information.
5) Engrave your name, or your social
security number in both a readily identifiable place as well as some inconspicuous place on your bike. Simpleto-use engraving tools may be borrowed
from Campus Security or tbe Albany
Police.

Driving habits are one of the main fact o n anccting fuel economy. Here are
some tips that win help you obtain optimum fuel economy for your car as well
as save on the wear and tear of its cornSlowdown. A light foot is one of the
best aatnrances of good mileagr Dont
stretch the speed limits.
Maintain an even speed, especially on
thruways, for best mileage.
Be sure parking brake is fully released.
Don't ride the brake or clutch pedal or
pump the accelerator.
Avoid short trips, especially in cold
Keep track of car trips and gasoline, a*
Plan driving routes to avoid traffic
lights, stop signs and local bottlenecks.
Anticipate traffic lights in order to
avoid hurrying to a light only to have to
stop. Not only will this conserve gas, but
will save wear and tear on the brakes and
the transmission.
If you have to wait for more than 30
seconds, turn off the engine
The "tip" of allowing your car to warm
up for several minutes before driving it is
falacicus. Your engine needs less than
one minute to allow for lubrication. The
best way to warm up your car is to drive it
slowly for the first five minutes or so.
Avoid fast starts and coast to stops to
save gas and wear and tear on your car.
Organize your trips and try to make
only one trip to do your errands instead
of two or three.
Getridof any junk that might be in the
trunk of your car. The more weight your
car is carrying, the fewer miles per gallon
you get.
Tips on Handing your Car
Keep your foot off the clutch when
driving When you halt for a stop sign or
traffic light, shift into neutral until it is
time to drive forward again. This
prevents unnecessary wear on your car
machinery.
' Downshifting is important in driving
because if done correctly, will save you
much wear on the car's major mechanical
components, such as brakes and
transmission. It will keep your car in
balance on a curve.
To downshift depress the clutch pedal.
Shift to neutral. As soon as you're in
neutral, tap the accelerator forcefully—a
means of getting your drive shaft and
transmission gears spinning at the same
RPM as other routing engine parts,
which means the gears will mesh smoothly. Shift the gear lever down into the next
lower gear. Accelerate gradually. With
practice you'll develop a rythma
In an emergency situation you must
brake to stop. Downshifting does no
good in a panic stop. The brake does it
and you must develop a "feel" for that
brake pedal. Just before your wheels
lock, that brake will feel "mushy" or
suddenly "very light" although you are
bearing down hard. This is called "brake
fading" This is your signal to ease up
slightly to allow for better control of your
car, and for better braking
At a fast speed pump your brakes. Use
steady, increasing periods of pressure
because if you come down hard on your
brakes you could lose your steering ability, and you could throw a brake shoe.

SUN YA's fiscal crisis ia a serious one. Budget cuts must be made—but the nursing
budget cut?

program is not the place to make them.
In the spring of '75, former S U N Y A Presidential Louis T. Benezet's Select
Committee on Academic Program Priorities made the following recommendation on
the nursing program: "Agree with school that they should have a M.S. [Master of
Science], but first assess carefully. Lack of medical programs and facilities here raises
questions. Form a committee [of oursiders] and if M.S. is not in order, school should
be phased out. If it is, then add faculty, explore cooperation (esp. Albany Med. Center)
and add space." {ASP, Summer, 1975)
Now, as SUNYA President Emmett B, Fields' Presidential t a s k Force on Priorities
prepares its report on where cuts should be made, many of the faculty members and
students in the School of Nursing fear that the program is in grave danger, Their fears
stem largely from the school's lack of a graduate program. The meetings of a feasibility
committee set up to assess the need for a graduate nursing program in Albany were
recently indefinitely postponed. This could be a sign that SUNYA's fiscal woes have
put a damper on the practicality of adding a graduate program at this time.
We can readily sympathize with the SUNYA administration. To ask them to add a
nursing masters to that school, while other programs are being severely slashed, is
asking for too much. As it stands now, the nursing program is very costly, hosting a
lower student-teacher ratio than most other programs at SUNYA.
However, the School of Nursing is a most valuable segment of our university.
According to Assistant Dean of Nursing Shirley Kane, all of SUNYA's nursing
program graduates found employment as professional nurses last year. Few other
programs at SUNYA can even dream of making such a claim.
The job market for professional nurses is excellent—and it will probably get better.
Presently, the New York State Nurses Association is pushingfor legislation which will
mandate that no professional nurses be educated in schools offering less than a
Bachelors degree. The legislation, which could be passed duringthis legislative session,
would become effective in 1985. This means that the professional nurse's license which
can now be obtained through two years of schooling, will require four.
The implications are obvious. The job market for students graduating with a BS in
nursing will flourish, as the job market for students graduating with an Associates
degree will most probably diminish. Consequently, the state will need more four year
nursing programs.
According to the nursing association's president, Louise Pan, the rationale for the
legislation rests with the ever-increasing amount of knowledge that nurses must have to
function on the professional level. They need to be competent in social work, in
modern medical technology, and be able to work independently in the community

There are films that derive their
expressiveness from the strength of
their characterization. The director's
careful use of dialogue and action,
the choosing to portrary significant
moments in the history of the
character, and the drawing out of the
natural abilities of an actor; all these
may create a film in which the
audience is at one with the
characters.
A film's expressiveness may too be
derived from an intriguing plot line
t h a t has less emphasis on
characterization. A director may
choose to leave his characters
sketchy. This effect allows them to
remain emblems; symbols of a
thought or cinematic paradigm that
the director sees as important. In
these cases, the actors must be
restrained; a longsigh is stifled into a
short nod, tears into a descending
glance of the eyes.
Often these two concepts of plot
and character are integrally tied up.
When they are blended into a syn-

I cannot believe what the disco
scene is doing to some jazz
musicians. Jazz and soul are similar
styles and most jazz musicians have
few problems playing soul. Many
soul albums have jazz musicians
supplying the rhythm; yet some
jazzmen have trouble in this idiom.
Esther Philips is a product of old
style jazz-blues music. She received a
recording contract with Kudu and
released three albums. Although
they were well done, none of them
sold well. Kudu records wasn't overjoyed at this and decided to fashion
her music to attract the disco crowd.
They made Joe Beck her arranger
and put his name on the cover along
with Esther's name. The Hrccker
thetic harmony, the result may be a
masterpiece. When one or the other
is chosen, the result is problematical.
When a director carefully decides to
employ neither concept, he is either
lazy or has decided to experiment.
These two elements are at work in
Francois Truffaui's film Two
English Girls, shown last Friday and
Saturday evening at the PAC. The
setting moves primarily between fin
du sicclc Paris and the two English
girls' home in Wales.
The story revolves around the
triangle created by the love between
Anne (Kild Markham), her litter
Muriel (Stacey Tendeter), and
Claude (Jean-Pierre Leaud), a
young French writer and art critic.
Claude fint expresses hit love for
Muriel, a fragile girl full of
mysterious thoughts. The two are
separated for a period of one year, in
which time he makes love to Anne.
i We follow Claude's progress
through his loves and career, his
renunciation of his life for Muriel,
and Anne's sexual awakening.
Muriel is finally told of her sister's
secret love, writes to Claude of her
own impurity (she was, alas, an
Onanist and Sapphist in her youth),
and is, in the end, penetrated (I) by
Claude. Anne dies and we are left
alone to ponder the strange story we
have witnessed.
Truffaut has painted this work in
abbreviated dashes of color. Likethe
Synthetic portraits of Cezanne, the
characters arc not fleshed out. Their
outlines are in black; their portraits

Romantic disease, consumption.
The analogues with impressionist
art cannot be taken too far. The
scenes of Paris, her streets, parks,
and cafes are full of images borrowed from the canvases of Manet,
Renoir, and Degas. Truffaut fills the
screen with Rodin's voluptuous
sculpture. Like Rodin, Anne,
Muriel, and Claude were born a bit
too early.
The footage is often grainy. The
contracting iris fade outs remind one
of D. W. Griffith's films. The
emphasis on stock emotions also displays Iruffaut's debt to early
movies.
Perhaps, as in "Day lor Night,"
Francois Truffaut is as much interested in the making of a movie as
in the movie itsell. Kc has made his
statement about love (Jules et Jim),
now he is concerned with the
methods used in making that statement. Iruffaut's film is often funny,
often tragic, but in the end it is
hollow. From a different director we
could call Two English Girls a noble
experiment; a touching splash of
color and intelligence. From Truffaut, director of "The 400 Blows",
"Stolen Kisses" and"JulcsandJim",
it is a film of shreds and patches.

while leading Kings College to a 6245 victory over the Albany State varsity swimming team.
Nevadonski set a Kings record in
the 100 yard freestyle, winning with a
time of 0:49.3. Two races later, in the
500 yard freestyle, Millerick set
another, finishing in 4:57.3. During
the race Albany's Steve Bookbinder
recorded his seasonal best, 5:45.4.
The Kingsmen jumped out to a
quick lead, but never pulled away.
They seemed to have stacked the
deck; winning the opening ten
eventi. Jack Seidenberg was the first
victor for the Great Danes, winning
the 200 yard breajltroke in 2:30.2.
The second and final Albany victory
came in the final event, the 400 yard
freestyle relay, at the team of Mark
Jaffe, Fred Zimmerman, Mitch
Rubin and Steve Bookbinder won in
3:47,
"The highlight of the meet was the
number of personal and seasonal
best times we recorded," said Albany
Coach Ron White. "Steve
Bookbinder set a personal best in the
1000 yard freestyle (11.48.7) along
with two seasonal bests, in the 500
yard freestyle (S.4S.4) and anchoring
the 400 yard freestyle relay in 0:57.2
Brian Rosencranz set a personal best
in the 1000 yard freestyle."
Other personal bests cited by
Coach White included
Artie
Rosenberg, who had two personal
bests in the one and three meter diving events, with point totals of 194.5
and 186.5, respectively, along with
Jeff Cohen for his personal best in
his leg of the opening 400 yard

NYPIRG:
Public Service Announcement
Nuclear Energy?
Thursday
evacuated in 12 hours. There are
nuclear plants within a few miles
of New York, Boston. Los
Angeles and other cities. There is
no conceivable way these cities
could be evacuated within 12
hours.
Last week, a nuclear power
plant in Vermont closed because
of a flaw in the safety system.
Had the plant not been shut
down it may have caused "an accident on a scale unknown to a
peacetime nation", causing
almost immediatedeathforfrom
12 to 20 miles in addition to causing radiation sickness and contamination over a much wider
area.
The United States government, along with the nations
energy producing corporations
are preparing to lock our
economy into a nuclear energy
system by the year 2000. The
New York Public Interest Group
(NYPIRG) believes this is a
serious mistake. There are many
serious problems with nuclear
power; here are a few:
Lethal waste: An average
Nuclear power plant produces
about 200,000 grams of
Plutonium 239 every year. One
gram of Plutonium 239 could
cause several million cases of
Lung cancer. It remains deadly
for hundreds of thousands of
years, and cannot be safely
stored, disposes of, or neutralized.
Game Night:Bring your own games (monopoly, backgammon, etc) to the Colonial Quad Ulounge at 8:30. Free.
Movie:"Last Tango in Paris" in LC 7, 75e with State Quad card, $1.25 without
Bridge:Duplicate Bridge Club in CC 315 at 7:00. A beginner's class meets at 6:00.
Meeting: NYPIRG general interest meeting-8:()0 in LC 19
Insurance: A nuclear power
plant accident could cause up to
$22.4 Billion in property damage
and billions more in personal injury claims. Presently nuclear
power plants are insured for only
$560 million. No insurance company in the world will insure for
$22.4 Billion.
These are just a few of the
problems involved. In site of this,
everyone in government or the
industry concerned with nuclear
power ignore these dangers as
significant- until last week.
When one of Vermont's nuclear
plants closed down on February
5th, three high ranking nuclear
engineers for General Electric
who helped design nearly 100
plants, resigned. All three said
that they were no longer convinced of the technical safety of
nuclear power and would actively campaign against its use for
energy.
Accidents: If a nuclear chain
reaction within a power plant
gets out of control, the heat in a
reactor increases to the point
where it can cause a steam explosion capable of shattering the
containment structure, releasing
enough radioactivity to kill
thousands. The Emergency Core
Cooling System, which should
prevent such a disaster has never
been tested. A model was tested
six times. Each time it failed.
Do-it-yourself Atomic Months:
Experts say it's easier to steal
Plutonium than rob a bank. Any
competent Physicist could use
this Plutonium to construe an
Atom bomb.
Emergency Evacuation: If a
serious radiative release occurred, everyone within a 100mile radius might have to be
This is one of NYPlRG's major areas of concern. Along with
informing the public of nuclear
power's dangers, we are proposing Safe Energy Legislation in
New York.
NYPIRG is also working on a
number of other issues: banning
non returnable bottles in New
York, passing truth-in-testing
Legislation, various studies such
as funeral home practices, unit
pricing, auto repair services, and
decriminalizing marijuana in
New York, as well as many other
things.
Lor those interested in finding
out more about why we can't live
with nuclear power or about how
you can get involved, NYPIRG
is holding a general meeting on
February 18th at 8:00 PM (place
will be announced). Everyone is
encouraged to attend.

The real story of John and
Abigail Adams will be presented
this week when "American
Primitive", a play by John Gibson, comes to PAC Main
Theatre. The roles of John and
Abigail are played by Kevin
Ferentz and Hilarie Selman.
The play, constructed from
letters, diaries, and books by
John and Abigail, is directed by
Mr. J. Hanley. The story deals
with the period from 1773-1777.

the real story of two of America's
greatest legends.
The play will run Wednesday

be purchased at the PAC Box
Office (457-8606).
Camp Dippikill Governing
Board is please to annouce that
two additional cabins will be
c o n s t r u c t e d at Student
Association's Camp Dippikill
this summer. By a 25 to 0 vote
Central Council approved the
plans for the two structures. On
building will bean 12'x I6'single
room log cabin with four beds
relatively similar to the small
cabin already in use at the camp.
The other lodge will be a larger
24' x 36' five room building. A
front and side view, and floor
plan are included. The two
buildings will cost about $29,000
with construction scheduled to
begin in June. The cabins will be
ready for use by next winter. All
labor, general contracting and
design work are being done by
students or alumni. The money
being used is the remains of a
fund known as the"Camp Hoard
Reserve". This money has been
put aside each year out of the
Campu H o a r d ' s budget
specifically for major construction, therefore there is nosudden
drain on any uncommitted SA
funds.
The board decided to construct the smaller buildings
specifically to try to salislv
current student usage requirements at the camp. I he
trend lately has been for heavy
demand by individuals, couples,
and small groups.
An annual survey taken by Alexander W. Astin, professor at
UCLA and published in the Chronicle of Higher Education reveals
various attitudes held by this year's freshman class. The 1975 survey is
based on 186,406 questionnaires taken at 366 inslitutions-75 two year

ly focusing their attention on
programs such as Nursing,
whose fate was left uncertain by
the Select Committee Report
and Benez.et's decisions. The
Fields Task Force is expected to
make recommendations onthese
programs sometime next week.
T H E C U R R E N T TASK
FORCE
In the past four weeks the Task
Force has met for an estimated
I OS hours, not counting subcommittee meetings. The 16
member group, chosen mostly
from the ranks of University
Senate Councils and the former
Select Committee, is charged
with reviewing all aspects of the
university including administralion, maintenance and operation. Fields has instructed the
Task Force to base its decisions
on three "strategic princippes";
"First, the preservation and nurluring of those programs which
are essential and central to a university; second, the preservation
of quality; and third, the preservation and nurturing of those
programs that uniquely address
our immediate environment
The State Capital District ol
New York."
These principles and that ol
meeting long term enrollment
trends were stated at a December
University Senate meeting. At
that time, Fields announced a
tentative allocation of resources
for 1976-77. Although his plan
has been ruined by the Executive
Budget cuts. Fields is still determined to place increased
emphasis on programs involving
public policy impact. Such
programs are Public Affairs,
Social Welfare, Education and
Criminal Justice.
Whether the President can
begin to guide the university in
this direction in the next fiscal
year depends on the Legislature
which has yet to vote on the
SUNY appropriation. Last year,
the Legislature made cuts far
greater than were mandated in
last year's Executive Budget.
With its current concern lor local
assistance and no new taxes in an
election year, the Legislature
may further cut the Slate University.
The University at Albany's
future remains undecided. Even
in January President Fields
noted that this latest round of
cuts would serve as a "lest of our
stamina as a university." Further
cuts by the Legislature could
make Field's comment a tragic
understatement.

School Of Business Limits
Students With New Policy
by C.S. Santino
A special committee appointed by
SUNYA's School of Business Dean
William Holstein is presently
processing over 280 applications to
determine who will majorin business
and who will not.
"We are allowing for about 260
positions," says Holstein.
Last November, students interested in majoring in business or
accounting were notified that the
School of Business could no longer
accomodate the ever-growing ranks
of business majors. Students were
asked to file an undergraduate admission application for the first time
in the school's history.
"Wc must limit our enrollment to
the level of a year ago," says Holstein. "The School of Business can't
keep growing to absorb all the
students who want to be business
majors."
Holstein's controversial new
policy is "purely a result of the
statistics," he says. In 1973, about
ten percent of the freshman class expressed an interest in majoring in
business. In the Fall of 1974, that
figure grew to 12 percent, at which
time the nationwide swing towards
business education had become an
obvious trend across the nation.
Holstein discussed the problem
with SUNYA administrators and
implemented a number of changesto
deal with the incrcasingenrollment.
Two new faculty members were
added, "which was all we could afford" says Holstein. The size of lecture courses was enlarged to take on
li maximum of students.
llolslein says that the situation
became "absolutely unworkable"
when, in 1975, more than 17 percent
of the freshman class indicated a
preference lor business.
"This is a significant change," says
Holstein, "nol a fad or a craze. It is
unreasonable to expect a university
to be so flexible as to accomodate all
these students. Students presently in
the program have a right to a quality
education, and my faculty has its
rights, also. By accepting everyone,
the quality will quickly deteriorate."
Holstein also cited the fact that his
faculty's teaching load is 50 percent
greater than in most departments,
and that course section sizes are at a
minimum of 40 students each. The
overall number of business majors
has doubled since l969toaboul 1200
students.
By Jan. 31, 1976, the official cutoff date, the School of Business had
received about 280 applications,
primarily from sophomores. The
minimum requirements for acceptance arc completion of at least 56
credits, 15 of which must be in six
core courses listed on the form.
"Having completed at least this
much," says Holstein, "students will
be accepted on the basis of
cumulative average."
The student who is accepted by
Holstein's Committee on Undergraduate Admissions will be
allowed to major in business or ac-

A SUNY-wide task force on student activity fees has recommended
revisions of the present guidelines
for collection and dispersion of these
funds. The suggestions of the task
force are aimed at clarifying the
amount of control administrations
should have over student tax money.
One proposed amendment could
make it easier for student corporations like SASU and NYP1RO
to get funding. In short, it clarifies
the right of student organizations to
support or contribute lo various
charitable groups, and allows for the
transfer of funds to student cor-
counting if he or she wishes to do so.
A rejection means that a student cannot major in business or accounting,
and cannot take any upper level
business courses. These courses will
be restricted to majors.
"A rejection," says one student,
"means that I've wasted two
semesters taking core business
courses. After I've paid tuition,
haven't I the right to major in the
department of my choice?"
Many prospective business
students are disturbed about the new
policy, especially those whose grades
may put them on the borderline.
Holstein reports that students visit
him daily to demand acceptance. A
number of students have threatened
to file suit against the University if
they are rejected.
Some applicants feel that if the
trend in education is towards
business, then the University should
allocate morcfundsinthat direction.
Holstein, however, is not quick to
ask for more money.
"Biing a university center, we
must save smaller programs," says
Holstein, "The Administration can't
just cut them to enlarge my school.
I'm trying to work with the Administration, not as an adversary."
Students who applied to the
School of Business will be notified of
their status by the end of next week.
porations.
The task force recommended,
however, that fees not be used to
fund such things as an "extracampus political committee, party
or candidate"
The task force was formed in Oct.
1974 by SUNY Chancellor Ernest
Boyer. It consisted of four students
and eleven administrators from
SUNY Central and State campuses.
In a letter, Boyer stated that the
purposes of the task force should be
lo "examine the appropriateness of
the current method of fundingthose
programs and activities supported
by student aetivitv fees." Boyer
further stated that the task force
should "assess and recommend alternative courses the university
could/should take in this regard."
Accordingto Russ Gugino, Assistant to the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and a member of the
task force, "the task force is only an
advisory committee. The recommendations it makes arc subject to the
review and approval by the Board of
Trustees."
This review will occur in the next
two months, says SASU President
Bob Kirkpatrick, who was also a
member of the task force.
Comments on the student cor-
porations amendment range from
fears of its being a device that could
be used to funnel money for political
purposes, to praise for itsexpanding
student control over the use of student funds.
Thomas Craine, SUNY Buffalo
Assistant to the President, thinks
that it "immodestly provides the
ability to 'launder' monies in nearly
unlimited ways."
According to Gugino, SA wants
t he "uses of t he funds t o be expanded
to anything the student wants."
Kirkpatrick states that, "There

nol changed that much."
The responsibility of Affirmative
Action is to monitor employment
and relate it to data and norms. They
make sure that equal opportunity
laws, mandates and executive orders
involving employment are upheld.
Norman feels most people know the
expectations of the laws but there is a
"difference in principle and practical
applications basic to academic institutions."
Many people feel the attitude
towards women must be modified
before any of the fair employment
policies can be fully implemented.
Dean of Humanities Ruth A.
Schmidt said, "a change in attitude
will mean full equality. The university is a reflection of society's prejudices." Schmidt would like to see
more support for women's studies at
SUNYA.

A task force has been created to
eliminate SB faculty positions at
SUNYA. Arc women or men more
likely to be fired.? The answer is
speculation, however a look at the
present situation may be helpful.
Presently there is a disproportionate ratio of female and male
professors throughout the SUNY
system. A study conducted in 1974
revealed SUNY employed 4,472
female and 12,732 male full-time
professors. SUNYA's faculty included 158 female and 646 male full-time
professors.
Many reasons are cited for the
lack of female representation in the
state university faculty. Kaye Norman, head of SUNYA's Affirmative
Action Office, feels traditional roles
and ideologies are key factors.
She explained, "We are in a time
when we [the United States] are ceasing to be as parochial in our ideal as
there will be difficulties encountered
by anyone breaking the status quo.
She said," Many women wait until
the trail is clear and take the path of
least resistance—they're followers."
The future of female full-time
professors at SUNYA is so far undetermined. Schmidt feels we will see
a declining number of women in
academic hierarchy because few
women are bei ng hired. She also said
