The Academic Planning andAssessment Committee recentlystarted discussion about renovations for the Mercy hurst core curriculum.This group, created last year, isa standing committee of the college Senate. It consists of severalfaculty members and three student representatives.The committee came about as aresponse to the Middle States suggestion that a successful institution needs[continued review ofcore curriculum.According to Dr. James Hood,chairman of the committee, themain goal of the group is to thoroughly review the entire curriculum.Last year the committee developed a rationale and goals statement in an attempt to correlate thecore curriculum w ith the collegemission statement. Hood stated,'The core is the central expres

sion of what the college is abouttherefore making it extremelyimportant"

This year, however, the committee is looking at actually developing anew curriculum thatwill adequately provide a moresound education for students.Hood said, 'The curriculum hasto have coherence, it can't be justa bunch of requirements; it has tomake sense."Hood said students are mostinterested in the relevance of theclasses that they are required totake. The committee is taking thisinto considerationfby trying toconsciously link classroom activities to "real life."According to Hood, the committee is focusing on "transferable skills," skills that apply indifferent situations, such as writing, oral com in un ica tion, and critical thinking.So far, the group has pinpointedcertain aspects of the curriculumthat need improvement.

How would you like to go toJamaica for a biology class?That's exactly what sophomoresJoAnna Shircy, Terri Ressler andBridget Hardin did for their tropical marine biology class.Assisted by Dr. Lewis Lutton,these three girls plus a few otherstudents, flew to St. Ann' s Bay inJamaica. Por $1300 everythingwascovered, except souvenirs anda meal or two.They fulfilled th eir lab in biology and experienced [this laid-back country w here the most frequent phrase is "No problem."While most other students hereat Mercyhurst were eating theirturkey dinners, these girls wereswimming in BioluminescentBay. They slipped into the waterduring the evening and whileswimm ing experienced tiny glowing micro-organisms in the water. Imagine swimming throughfirefly-like creatures that generate heat in cool water.During the day the temperatures reached 90 degrees. Thesunwas up early.[You could get a suntan in themorning, like 7:30 a.m.," saidBridget Hardin, biology major.The group traveled by van to theirdestination, whether It was dancing or waterfall climbing.The friendly people of Jamaicawould honk their horns as theypassed, or wave at the group asthey traveled in their van."We always seemed to be thecenter of attention," said Ressler,communicationsmajor. "I was so .aware of the color of my skin.!They proved to be the mainattraction as they danced at a club.As the girls were dancing, a circleformed around them and they soonhad everyone in the dance clubdancing the same way.The men also seemed to be veryforward with the girls, as theydidn't take no for an answer. Ifyou ust talked toso&aeone, they 'dtry to pick you up, said the girls."It's not just oneguy, it's everyguy/ ' said Bridget The girls sa idthey were constantlyasked wherethey were staying, and their replywould be a place forty minutesaway because they didn't want tobe tracked down.

Another adventure includedclimbing a water fall. This alsowas a tourist attraction. The fallsare natural but there are indentions on the rocks to make for

They had to be careful notto step in the spaces between therocks for fear they would si ip andfell.; | i | * #The group had daily lab time fora couple of hours before they leftto go somewhere. They'd listento Dr. Lutton or pick up and identify animals, then leave to tour.These other places included acave where bats were flyingaround land a (swamp whereseahorses and stingrays encircledthem. The girls were also bittenby fields of mosquito wasps (tinyjellyfish) in the swampy water."It wasn't just biology," saysTerri. Shirey, Ressler andHardinlearned much about the Jamaicanlifestyle. Shirey'reports thatyou'd see a big house and then ashack next to it. "Therichand thepoor live together, she said.Shacks were set up to sell souvenirs such as wood carvings.Shirey said, "They'd charge usdouble.""We'd have to bring down theprice,*' said Ressler. "We'd endup paying about half of what theywanted." For a tee-shirt thatstarted out as $30, they could getthe price down to $17."We were offered pot con-stantly,"said Ressler. The Jamaicans would casually ask any oneof them if they wanted some"smokes."Theywould see peoplein Jamaica smoking marijuana,and the Jamaicans even carried itin their pockets, the girls said.

"The cops were doing it too,"said Shirey."It's illegal down there but theywon't arrest the Jamaicans because they don't havegaiiy

money," said Hardin.According to the girls, some ofthe people in Jamaica are verypoor and take measures to makemoney. They may target touristsfor money.Shirey recalls that many timesshe would hear them call fromtheir booths, " 'Can I braid yourhair? Can I braid yourhair?' Theywill offer to do things for you formoney," she said. 'The Jamaicans wanted American moneysince it is worth so much morethan the Jamaican currency. OneAmerican dollar was equivalentto 28 Jamaican dollars."The girls also noticed that thepeople living there are more concerned* with survival than politics. For example, the beacheswere full of garbage like old shoes,ripped tires and broken glass,Shirey said.The resort places are the placesthat look nice,-but the rest of Jamaica is simply "Jamaica, theysaid. The Jamaican lifestyle is avery casual, simple way of living,they said.

In their hotel located on a gorgeous sandy white beach, therewere no screens on the doors. Thegirls didn't seem to mind themosquitoes at night, ants in thesink, an occasional cockroach orthe rare lizard on their kitchenwall*"We got the true Jamaican experience," said Shirey. "It's a niceway to pack in the science credits,and a fun way to spend Thanks- g iv in g ."Being a science major is an

experience you can't pass up,"said Hardin. *3gRessler concluded, "You can'thelp but learn."

It's your only chance.If you aren't fro m Pennsylvania, get out before you have kids. Ifthey're born here, how do you explain to them that they can neverleave? How do you explain, while you retire to Florida, that yourkids will only be able to go as far south as Philadelphia for theirgolden years.

Dr. Belovarac, 1973said Belovarac. "I majored in history and he was a national authority on military histor y."^However, tohis dismay the classfilled up and he was left to ponderthe future."I was frustrated and disappointed in not getting somethingI really, really wanted and waswaiting a long time for."

At that point he had to make acareer decision. Fortunately forMercyhurst he chose to transferinstead of staying at A llegheny.Mercyhurst was the obviouschoice for the young man whogrewup in the city.

history to explain why he came toMercyhurst during its infant yearsas a co-educational college."There is something about theexcitement of American historybecause it's a nation that startedfrom scratch. I find the institutions and nations that are in thebuilding process are more interesting," said Belovarac. "That'sone of the reasons I came toMercyhurst. It is (he same ideabecause at the time Mercyhurstwas going through a significanttransition from an all girls finishing school to a co-educationalcolle!ge. ,,The year he entered, he was oneof the few males at the school.

"Isort of joined the infamous barbarians that were already here/'he said."Barbarians" is an appropriateterm as their living quarters werevery primitive."The rooms were iny monasticcells. I had a pull-out bed, a chairand a desk; that's it " ttDespite not having the modernluxuries students enjoy today,Belovarac valued the educationhe received. Two of the teachershe admired and was taught bywere Michael McQuillen, nowDean of Students, and RichardKubiak.Belovarac's fondest memories

Belovarac was a member of thecrew team and his most memorable moment at the Hurst was asan oarsman.He thought for a minute beforespeaking and looked at his officefull of crew memorabilia. H e thendescribed in detail the race of hislife against Notre Dame."We journeyed to Notre Damefor the epic race. They were dedicating a new boathouse on theircampus and they invited us torow," he said. "They expected aneasy victory and to have a hugevictory party. It was great because we just kicked the hell outof them in every event we rowed

in .The event was just one of thethings he has taken away fromkj Mercyhurst^He has learned a lot. since his college days. :, tThe Mercyhurst education hereceived helped him achieve somuch,frombeing a naval officerto the head of the history department.His success as a student and asa professor stems from the beliefj|Sn "seizing the opportunity."

By Craig RybczynskiMe re ad Sports EditorWhat if you had the chance toinjure your opponen t before thebig game or event? Would youdo it?This is the same scenario inthe on going Nancy Kerriganand Tonya Harding incidentHarding is accused of con

spiring to injure Kerrigan before t h e U . S . Figure Skating Association championships in Detroit,Michigan.The date was Jan. 6 and figure skater Nancy Kerrigan just hadcompleted her practice skate at the C obo Arena in DetroitThe 24-year-old Stoneham, Mass. native expected to competelater that d ay in the championships. This would be a mere steppingstone to the Winter Olympics inLillehammer, Norway in February.That's when disaster struck.We* ve all heard the story. The innocent young woman wasbrutalized while being interviewed by an assaliant weilding a leadobjectHer knee and Olympic dreams seemed shattered. T h e public criedout for protection of athletes, an d her parents w anted some answers.Th e press fiasco that followed h a s accused m any, butw e still haveno answers.Was Harding involved? She won the U . S . championships and isassured a spot in Lillehammer, unless she is found guilty. JThe whole ordeal is turning into a big game of Clue. ShaneMinoaka Stant allegedly struck Kerrigan in the ice arena with thelead pipe. Illegal funds from Harding's ska ting fund were allegedlyused to pay the hitman. VMeanwhile, the determined Kerrigan, fighting the affects of the'attack skated Mond ay for the first time, while Harding m e t with thedistrict attorney in Oregon to clear her name. ' ' **Yet she continues to train for the games. 'This saga should be called "The Comeback Kerrigan versus theHard Luck Harding." ' T 'The vision of Kerrigan is of a woman performingflawlessly as shemoves with the grace of a swam. She is soft spoken and verybeautiful. She is what America wa nts in a champion.Then there is Harding. The rough and tumble youth who hasfought criticism and doubters a l l h e r 1 ife to get t o t h e Olympics. Shehas skating ability, but she doesn't meet America's view of theutypical Olym pic champion. 1 * ^ /.The question on everyone's mind is, "Did Harding aid in theattack? If so should she be allowed to compete?" Absolutely not. Michelle Kwan, who finished second behindHarding should go to Lilleham mer. However there is something wrong with this whole even tWhat is going on here? What happened to th e purity of sports andfair play ingrained in the Olym pic Oath? *"Is there som ething tainted about sports. The Olympic spirit issupposed to burn like the flam e that is lit to symbolize the unity ofsport competition.Has the money and prestige of winning a gold medal become themotivating forcebehind competing i n t h e Olympics? Itshouldn't b e .Olympians strive to represent their nations in search of glory, hotfinancial gains. **

For Kerrigan a ll the money in th e world cannot erase the threat olviolence that lies in the bacfcof her mind.

F B O U I have scars and wounds that need to heal. Kerrigan's are themost visible. She fought hard to return to the formthat won her abronze medal at the 1988 W inter Olympics only to-be assaultedt h e United States and the world will be behind Kerrigan as sheperforms in Lillehammer. T h e tough-willed skater from Massachusetts will inspire an d excite th e crowd, if she returte to her old fo rm.The only question that remains is , "Will Tohya Harding b e at rinkside or at home watching the Olymp ics?"

The Mercy hurst Laker hockeyteam reached the .500 mark Saturday by blasting Hobart C ollege8-1 a t the State U niversity of NewYork at Geneseo.The Lakers began th e weekendsweep on Friday, beating the Royals of Scranton University 16-0.The Lakers reached the elusivemark for th e first time since Nov.1 1 . \"More than anything, what thisweekend has done is give th e teamsome confidence which we werelacking tremendously," said headcoach Rick Gotkin. "I think that'sreally been the good thing aboutplay ing the Scrantons and Hobartsis that we've gotten some confidence. Nowwehave to somehowcarry it over to the big games."An inspired Laker hockey teamfound th e offense they were lacking in the first half of the season.The blue and green's offensewas led b y Kevin McKinnon whoscored four times. He showed theskills that have made him theteam's leading scorer. 'He attributed his success to hislinemates.

"The other ^forwards Bryce(Bohun) and Craig (WacDonald) a |ptal of 80 shots in the rou tset me up and we work really Jgood together as a line," saidMcKinnon.Three other Mercyhurst forwards followed McKinnon's example. Scott MacDonald rediscovered his scoring ability as hechipped in three, while ScottBramwell and Jon Johnson eachcontributed t w o . i

McKinnon opened the scoringfor the Lakers a 12:50 of the firstperiod to begin the avalanche ofgoals to follow. Mercyhurstscored four more times in the first.McKinnon beat Royal goalieGeorge Bozak to end the firstframe with assists going to Bohunand Scott MacDonald.Defenseman Justin Proud alsoadded a goal in the period andreceived praise from his teammates."Game in and game out heseems to be the most consistentplayer on the ice," said PaulCapizzano. "He?has turned itaround this year and is no longerjust a defensive player, bu t is a lotbetter on offense."Proud's success has not goneunnoticed by head coach RickGotkin. "He is by far our bestdefenseman this year," saidGotkin. "He showed some signsof that last year,but this year h e isa quality defenseman and there isno question in my mind if hekeeps going theway he is he couldend up on the ECAC all-starteam."With, Proud on defense andMcKinnon o n offense th e Lakersstormed out to score 11 moretimes. They peppered Bozak with

'McKinnon completed the hattrick at 12:21 of the second period . Bohun again assisted on thegoal along with forward CraigMacDonald.Chris Lueck picked up his firstvictory of he season as he stopped1 3 Royal shots.

Th especial teams pi ayed a pivotal rolein the victory.McKinnon, Craig MacDonald,and Kevin Gauthier scored withthe man advantage, while RussCiesielski scored a short-handedgoal."We been ecstatic about ourshort-handed play. We are 89.9percent (in killing penalties) andhave scored 18 short-handedgoals, that h a s to be some sort ofcollegefrecord," said Gotkin."We're a threat short handed,Bryce Bohun and KevinMcKinnon, Art Thomas and JonJohnson, and Craig and ScottMacDonald have all done a greatjob killing penalties."McKinnon again started thescoring for the Hurst at 4 : 0 0 in thefirst.

The Mercyhurst women's basketball team is beginning to turnup the heat at the right time as itfaces a key stretch in its schedulewithin the next few weeks.Some of th e top squads in theregion are lurking ahead including Pitt-Johnstown an d Lock Haven.Mercyhurst turned in two strongperformances over th e past weekas it posted victories over Indiana, PA, and Mansfield. The 8 8 -5 8 triumph over Mansfield Tue sday night sets up a three gamehome stand for th e 9-6 Lakers."Mansfield is a tough place toplay and we played well, althoughw e didn't have a great first ha If,"said head coach PaulDemyanovich. "We had verygood distribution in scoring." Infact, every Laker on the rosterscored.Teresa Szumigala and KarinSalem paced Mercyhurst with 17points apiece while JulieMcChesney added 1 5 points and6 rebounds. However, defensivepressure may have been the keyas the Lakers limited Mansfieldto just 28 percent shooting fromthe floor. Szumigala blockedseven shots. Mercyhurst shot 63percent"Naturally, I'd like to be a lotfurther than we are," added T h e r e s a S z u m i g a l a leads Mercyhurst in scoring (21 ppg).

What i f there was no R e c Center?>>

By Keith CoursonMerciad Sports Editor"If they wanted som ething toimprove the Mercyhurst commu-nity, this is not it.There is no secret thatMercyhurst College is attempting to ready itself for the 21stcentury. The planning process isin action at this very moment.It was briefly mentioned at arecent Mercyhurst Student Government meeting that there may

b e plans in store for t h e R e c . Center, the 15,000 square foot building next to the Athletic Centerwhich serves a s a practice facilityfor many of th e athletic teams oncampus and houses many otheractivities.There have been n o plans set, orat least stated atthis time. But, theidea of converting the building toserve other,purposes has beenhinted at and is being considered.Enter junior class representative Jeff H utchinson. Along withsen io r Kevin Nixon, he hasspearheaded an effort to prevent anyaction from being taken. In fact,their goal is to remove anythoughts of conversion of thebuilding before such a plan be

comes more than that.Hutchinson received word thatthe total area would be equallydivided three ways between thedance department, sports medicine and student government."Maybe this won 't have an impact on you or me right n o w , butit's going to have an impact onstudents and athletics maybe fiveor 10 years from now/' saidHutchinson. "It's not just athletics that will be hurt"Hutchinson says that studentsshould have a say in the matter.For many teams on campus,most notably soccer and baseball,the R e c . Center becomes a necessity when nasty wcathcrSruinspractice plans outdoors. The facility is utilized all winter long foroff-season training. O ther studentactivities such as aerobics andintramurals are held in th e building. 'They'll have nowhere tog o , " added Hutchinson, "and ifyou want to go over there andplay basketball you should havethat option."Along with Nixon, Hutchinsonhas taken action and expressedhis concerns i n t h e form o f a letterto President Garvcy. "It was at ameeting and it didn't really get

out and I caught it and ust kind o fstuck it in the back of my mind,"added Hutchinson, "but'then Ireally thought about it."According to MSG presidentGeorge Paydock, various futureplans for the college that mayinclude th e Rec Center are goingto be discussed at an upcomingBoard ofTrustees meeting. However, Paydock noted there havebeen no definite plans set at thispoint

Hutchinson wants to keep it thatw a y . "I know we re here for learning and that is number one andwe 're not here for sports. I understand that," h e stated boldly, "butwhen I came here to visit with allthose admissions students, o n e o fthe most important things theyshowed me was the R e c . Center."

Hutchinson wants to make students realize that this could become a reality a n d h a s formed hisown committee. H e i s hoping histhoughts are going to be considered before any action is taken."The main thing is that it serves avery good purpose:for athletesand students alike."

Demyanovich. "We had two verytough losses (one point losses toLeMoyne and Lock Haven) and11-4 sure would be a lot nicerthan 9 -6 but th e girls are workingreal hard."Freshmen Allison Marsden andConnie Ralston have fit nicelyinto th e Laker scheme. "Marsdenplayed super yesterday," said theLaker boss. "We needed her inthere defensively."Meanwhile, Ralston is the thirdleading scorer on the team (10pts./game) and lea ds infree hrowshooting.The Lakers, ranked sixth in theeastern region, are optimisticthata play-off spot is in the future."W e've come along but in order

for u s to get an NCAA bid to theeastern regionals, w e're going tohave to beat Pitt-Johnstown atleast once," added Dem yanovich.He believes tha 119 or 2 0 wins area must."This year ifwe were in a league,we would have conference play . Ithink w e'd be in good shape," h esaid, "but we're an independentand it ma kes it very difficult forus to get in."Clarion is currently the top teamin the region a n d i t s only loss thisseason came at the hands of theLady Lakers.Mercyhurst entertains Pitt-Bradford next Wednesday at theMAC at 7:30 p.m.
