Overexpenditures Found In Student Government Budget Two overexpenditures were recently discovered in the Mer- cyhurst Student Goverment budget These overexpenditures were from two different areas; the yearbook's budget and the monies ailoted for the sound system in the Student Union. The 1980 Yearbook overspent their budget of $4,000 by approx- imately $2,871. This was due to unforeseen difficulties such a s missing a deadline which exclud- ed an expected discount, havii four-color hardback cover, an the cost of shipping and handling fees entailed when the yearbooks were sent: t o last year's graduates. MS6 Treasurer, Mary Gausman clearly emphasized the fact that "we are not cancelling one thing for the other, we are just simply dippi ng where there's cushions. .,' -^ The overexpenditure of the sound system appears to have arisen out of a general misunderstanding regarding the April 1980 proposal. T h e Student!Union w a s originally budgeted $1,500 of the $5,000 surplus in the 1979-80 Government budget. The $1,500 proposal w as then amended to allot a total of $3,774 for the soundc system. In an unusual turn of events, th e Union'sproposal was cut back to $1,50 0. The final bill for the stereo system w as $3,991.50. This resulted in a total $2,491 overexpenditure. §. ?'» c "I realize that's a large sum of money, but the proposals were passed out," stated Student Union Director Jan Gatti. Gatti elaborated saying that Jim Bolger, the 1979-80 treasurer, assured her that there would be enough incumbent funds to assure the buying of a system. She added that she assumed the funds se t aside for the sound system would follow the need outlined in the proposal and spent accordingly. However, Seltzer explained that an additional $1,600 was ailoted at an Executive Board meeting in the spring of 1980. 'This makes the highest amount agreed upon $3,100." stated Seltzer. He continued to explain that "this (the amount spent) is way over any agreed amount." It w a s re-emphasized by Gausman that these overexpen- ditures will not cause cutbacks in other a reas. "What it does mean, is that the student body will not have a surplus, we will have to be conservative when it comes to in- flation," she explained. "It is the whole principle in- volved." summed UD Seltzer. 'There wa s a total lack of com- munication and poor manage- ment that there is no excuse for. I'll take the blame for that. * "It is all over and there's nothing we can do about it," he added. a student publication MERCYHURST COLLEGE DECEMBER 12,1980 Sisters Of Mercy Sued; College Named In Suit Michael Wickett, 1152 Scotland Drive, North East, filed suit in Erie County Court Wednesday against the Sisters of Mercy of Crawford and Erie Countie s, Mercyhurst College, Mercyhurst Preparatory School , John Doe and William Payne, for an assault two years ago.

The OpportunityCalendar OptionZ, which is basicallya revised version ofOption
E, has many attractive advantages for theMercy hurst studentOptionZ is a three-term calendar. Fall term runs13 weeks and
the following two terms run10.This schedule also makes the15 week student teaching require-
ment or theeducation majors more comfortable. '?,Also,Christmas break will fall between Winter and Fall term in
Z, as opposedto breaking the Winter term up as outlined in OptionE. C learly, thiswould help the structure ofschedules which wouldhave been inconveniently disrupted.
The most appealing featureof Option Z is the13 week Fall term.The extra three weeks offer the studentwishing to overloada moresensible time period in which to accomplish this.
Option Z, which was developed by faculty members, solves allthe problems which arise in Option E. Since we will be using thecalendar forthe next five years,it only seemslogical to choose theone with the least number of conflicts. Inmis case, OptionZ is theobvious choice.

Editorial Comment
Messy MuddleA flagrant-: disregard for
established policy by the studentgovernment election committeeraisesquestions as to the validityof the recentvoting procedureus-ed inthe race forMSG secretary.
The election proceduresoutlin-ed in the government constitutionwere overlooked in a number ofcritical areas. j.
The counting and bookkeepingof the ballots was done in whatwould best be described a s an ir-responsible manner. The ballotswere allegedly tallied bythe com-mittee chairman and his room-mates. No government officerswere"present and no writtenrecord of the count was made.
Article Six, Part 7 Sections Cand D of the constitution statethat counting ofthe votes isto be
performed by current officers ofM.S.G. "and- "an impar t ia lobserver, appointed by the direc-tor of student services who shallbe present at the counting ofballots, and shall verify inwriting, the results of the elec-tion." These terms were obvious-ly violated.
The error in the bookkeepingofthe ballots is irreversible. Fourdays after voting tabulation, thechairman shredded the ballots.
Again, the constitution is clearon this procedure. Article Six,Part seven,SectionB, Subsection3 states "all ballots once countedmust be available forpublic in-spection in the student govern-ment office." / Jv
The onlv ballots that are to beshredded are those not used

LESSTHAN A TANK AWAYExploations In Am erican Religion
By' ;George Garrelts
The Oneida Colony Thirtymiles beyond Syracuse N.Y. onecan find, by looking carefullythrough the maze of villages inthat area, thetown of Oneida andthe Mansion House of the Oneidacolony. That house stands as animpressive « monument to thereligious and social,ideas of J.Humphrey Noyes and his smallband of followers.Between4846and 1879 they practised a formofreligion in Oneida N.Y. in thevicinity of this Mansion Houseand in it which edified and scan-dalized those who came to knowabout it. People in the area wereedified by the industry anddedication of the people at theMansion House and scandalizedby their approach to £ sex andmarriage. •
J . H u m p h r e y N o y e smatriculated at Dartmouth at theage of 15 and after graduation,studied for the ministry at Yale
Divinity School.He was ordaineda m inister ofthe Free Churchbuthis unconventional-approach totheology and to ethicswas not ac-ceptableto many. He taught thatthe second coming of Jesus hadtakenplace AD . 70, after the Fallof Jerusalem, and that peoplecould enter into the perfectionJesus brought to earth by wayoftheir inner conviction that theycould not create evil. Consequent-ly he thought thatany man couldhave a sexual relationship withany woman, which, whentranslated into the terms of hisown time, came to be known as"complex marriage". U±
Noyes preached these ideas atPutneyVt., his own home town,and won some followers, in-cluding his own wife, some
•members ofhis family and someothers. When these people weredriven out of Putney, they cameto Oneida to join forces with agroup ofpeople who thought andbehaved in the same way. ThereNoyes became the patriarch of asmall community which flourish-ed for thirty years, and to a cer-tain extent, still exists in theminds-and hearts of those whoLive in the Mansion House andthose who manage the OneidaSilver Company, thecorporatedescenda of the Noyes ministry.
In the early days at the Man-sion house, Noyes and hisfollowers practised complexmar r i age . Noyes was thepatriarch of this theocracy whichlived a communal existence andsocial belief. Complex marriagegradually turned into what isknown as "stirpiculture" as theauthority and age of Noyes ad-vanced. In that system ofeugenics,Noyes and a chosen fewdecided which members of thecommunity would be selectedbreeding chi ldren. Thosechildren were raised communal-ly, belonging to the whole com-munity.Some of the descendantsof those children are still* inresidence in the Mansion Houseat Oneida,while others live close-by and are associated in someway either with the MansionHouse or with Oneida SilverCompany.
The community went into adecline when J. HumphreyNoyeswas forced into retirementby hisdeclining powers and publicop-position to his beliefs and prac-tises.He handed overthe reins tohis sonTheodore in 1878,but mat-ters were never the same again

at Oneida. The community wentslowly downhill as a result ofcon-troversy and by1890 had turnedaltogetherinto the stock corpora-tion and company y known todayas Oneida Silver Company.
N o y e s b r o u g h t t h eeschatological Kingdom down toearth where he reigned as God'svice regent. On the Utopian sidehe worked tirelessly to make agood living for his communityand to provide a good life for hisfollowers and for the worldaround them. He legislated thatthey should read and study threehours a dayin the interest of theirspiritual and intellectuallife, nomatter whatthe work demanded,and he provided for an active lifeof recreation for the community.The Oneida group had a verymodest liturgical life. Noyesthought one should blend thespiritual into ordinary, everydaylife., The one feast they didobserve was the observance ofthe day of his enlightment intoPerfectionism.
The Mansion House stillstands; some descendants of theOneida colony still come andgo in its buildings and on itsgrounds. Butthe spirit is gone. Inbringing heaven down Noyesbrought ittooclosefor mere mor-tals to bear. In respect for humanlife and.for human work Noyeswas impressive, especially in hisrespect for work, learning, theabolition.of drudgery, and acreative approach to technology.The loss of transcendence spelledthe failure of the experimentso that in a few years one will nolonger be ableto see the MansionHouse saved asa musem.See it,Iwould say, while it is still aliveeven though" it is barelybreathing.

Computer Project U n d e r w a yJuly 1980 markedthe beginning
of a two-year computerizationproject undertaken as a resultofa $400,000 Title III grant awardedto Mercyhurst. The federal grantenables the college to com-puterize the areas of basic skills,personnel management, andmanagemen t i n fo rma t ionsystems (MIS).' " \ '•
Tom Billingsley,Title III coor-dinator, is excited about thetwo-year project. 'The project willchange and improve the statusquo dramatically in a very shorttime in theway we relate to eachother," commented Billingsley.The computer is viewed by Bill-ingsley as a "tool" used toestablish control and achievecommon goals at MercyhurstBillingsley also stated that theTi-tle III grant has put Mercyhurst"in the mainstream of highereducation." I
The basic skills project headedby Miriam M ashank, will seek toincrease student's reading,writing, and mathematic skillsthrough a developmental studiesprogram. <y
Billingsley headsthe personnelmanagement project which aimsto provide the leadership group ofMercyhurst with the necessary
knowledge to develop and imple-ment a planning, management,and evaluation system.
Dr. Detmar Straub, presentchairperson of the EnglishDepartment, is charged with themanagemen t i n fo rma t ionsystems project. Straub notedthat Mercyhurst presently usesthe ComputerService Bureau, anoff-campus company, to performcomputerized tasksby key punchfor the school. Withthe establish-ment ofMIS, Mercyhurst will nolonger have to utilize the "anti-quated" key punch system.Straub believesMIS will provideMercyhurst with "a measure ofcontrol within the school."
Management informationsystems, according to Straub, isvaluable in that it is an "onlinesystem,"* adding or relating in-formation in an instant. Straubcited class registration as an ex-ample of a future MIS project.The new system will be fasterand more efficient, providing anongoing list of specific studentsenrolled in classes, noted Straub.
An office for the MIS project isnow located adjacent to ThomasBillingsley's office on secondfloor, Old Main. The computerterminalwill be located inthis of-

Soap Operas at the 'Hurst;The Latest Craze on Campus
A craze whichwas once assum-
ed to be exclusively those of idlehousewives or aged shut-ins,isbecoming m ore common amongstudents. Soap operas,in otherwords, havecome to campus.
Estimates of just how manystudents have taken to the soapsare almost always unscientific.But one scholarlystudy, by Nor-thern Illinois University pro-fessors Myles Breen and Jon
Powell,projected that40 percentof the female and 10 percent ofthe male students on campusregularly tuned in.
It is estimated at least45 per-cent of the students here watchso a p o pe r a s . On e 'Hurstfreshman Debbie Dixon likes"General Hospital" because"itmakes me feel that there arepeo-ple who have more problems thanI do!" Debbie also likes Joe K el-ly, "because he's cute." £A male sophomore at Mer-cyhurs t watches "Gen era lHospital". "Once you start wat-ching them, you -get hook-e d . . . really," said Mark Hut-chinson. Mark doesn't feel soapoperas effecthis manhood. "Menare involved in the soap operas,so, some of the problems mayarise in men's lives today." saidMark. When "General H ospital"comeson, Mark's stereogoes off.
Quite a few students at Mer-cyhurst gather daily in, thelounges of dormitories whensoap operas begin airing, par-ticularly to watch "GeneralHospital." U
Some students plan their wholeday around the soaps. Fresh manAlicia Wegemer scheduleshe r
classes around soap operas."Ijus t can ' t miss "Genera l
by Carla AndersonHospital," Alicia giggled.
Lorraine ZenkaSmith,editor ofthe soap fan magazine "RonaBarrett's Daytimers" saysthe
campus soap opera boom is partof a more general spreadof
popul ari ty for the shows.There is an i enthusiasticin-
terest in the programs for theirproduction values and fo r
sociological observations.She
wouldirt mind cultivating that in-terest,* either.| She .has beendiscussing the # possibility ofteaching classes on soap operaswith adm instrators a tUCLA and"other" California schools.-
"Soaps are more sophisticatedthan they, ever were," Smithsays. "They're shooting on loca-tion now'in places likeLondon,G r e e c e , F r a n c e a n d t h e
Bahamas."Moreover, "they can treat an
issue.with more in-depthcoverage and perspective thannight-time programming,"sh e
ABC's line-up of "GeneralHospital," "All My Children,"and "One Life to Live" seems tobe most popular among studentsat Mercy hurst. «*- The reason may be that thecompetition—soaps like "As theWorld Turns " and "The GuidingLight"—are older and m ore con-servative in tone.
"The ABC stories integratetheir oldest and their youngeststory lines," Smith pointso u t
Studentinterest tends to centeron the tale of Luke and Laura,just two of the tormented crew at
"General Hospital." Darlene
Hightower,a
freshmanat the
'Hurst likes Luke Spencerbecause, "he uncovered FrankSmith and he's cool." Luke isa
down-and-out-kid from the wrongside of town*who got mixed upwith mafioso. Laura's past isa
bit checkered, too— notably thebusiness about kil l ingh e r
mother'slover. But then she mar-r ied Scot ty, . and b e c a m erespectable. ^ 5* ^
Figuringout why such materialappeals to the educated elite ofAmerican youth canbe a pro-blem. "The programs have ob-vious appeals,"says sociologistRodney Jacobs of the U niversityof Delaware . "They offerr o m a n c e and e scape a n d
relatively-harmless tit&lation."Darlene Nolan stated, "Soapoperas are a fantasy escape forme. Soaps break,up my day."Debbie Dixon feels, Soap opera sare an escape. WhenI watchthem I forget my troubles andconcentrate on the characters.For an houra day, I am no longerJust in my little world."<
In the Northern Illinois studyconducted las t fall,40 percentofthe soap watchers saidthey view-ed soaps because they were in-terested in the involved plots, 30percent said they watchedbecause the characters w ere "sodumb," and almost14 percentnoted the beneficial effect of wat-ching televised programs thatmade their own troubles seemtrivial. -v t < •
The results ofthe interviews oncampus show that MercyhurstCollege follows the same trend.
Looks like soap operas aren'tjust for housewives anymore !

These are the reflections of Dr.Michael Erisman, politicalscience professor in the SocialScience division. Having attend-ed Duke University forhis B.S. inpolit ical science, Erismanreceived his masters and doc-torate from Penn State. He hasinstructed here atMercyhurst foreightyears. ,
' Like a lot of people,I switchedaround my career ambitions. Istarted out wantingto go into thestate department Foreign Ser-vices, but decided to attend Lawschool. This I did for only a veryshort time. Itwas then that Iwentback and got my masters anddoctorate,"he mused, £L Erisman went on to teach in ageneral education program c atPenn State; he then moved on tothe 'Hurst. He \ feels that therewas more^interest in politicsamong the students in his earlydays here then there is in thepresent.
"When I cam ehere,it was 1972and you were still in the V ietnamperiod; therewas much more of ageneral interest in foreign policythen. I see a tailing off of that in-terest now. This is a result of thetimes. Foreignaffairs were muchmore in the public eye and peopleknew more about them," he em-phasized, He added that this isnot evident an the 'Hurst's
pol i t ica l sc ience majors ,Erisman revealed that about 50per cent of themajors are gearedtoward law school, while othersfind careers inpublic administra-tion, working with local andcounty governments.
"A few of themhave gone on tograduate school, and one hasreceived his doc torate," he said.
Dr. E risman has been involvedin research specializing in Carib-bean affairs, in particular Cubanforeign policy. He has w rittenap-proximately twenty articles"int he se a r ea s wh ich werepresentedto variousprofessionalassociatio ns,; and eventuallypublished in professionalJournals.; 7 *
When askedhow his fascinationwith Cuban affairs developed,Erisman admitted thathe was in-fluenced by a certain graduateprofessor who piqued his interestin this area .; "I liked him and began todo
some writing and research workwith him," he remarked. \
r "This was the later pa rt of thesixties, since I wanted tospecialize in Latin American af-fairs, obviously Cuba was a ma-jor issue then. g".
The topic of discussion movedtoward more recent events; thepresidential elections,JJ
Dr. Erisman believes thatac-companying the Regan ad-ministration will be a m ore hardline approach; m ore of a tenden-cy to emphasize the militaryaspects of relations between theUnited States' and t the SovietUnion. *S?** I - J\

The House ThatMercyhurst Builtby Sister Peggy Anibaldi
In the early 70's, a smallmiracle occurred ip Zaire,Africa. In the sprawing city ofMbandaka, a group of Christianvolunteers were building 100homes for the poorest families inthe area. These families wouldsoon be moving from vermin-infested thatch roofed mud hutswith puddle floors which breddisease bearing mosquitoes intoone-story houses with cementfloors and tin roofs. No electricity• no plumbling, but nevertheless,clean, livable, sturdy homes.
Since then, houses have beenbuilt in Ntondo, Kinshasa(Africa) Gula ( U g a n d a ) ,Aguacatan (Guatemala) and inall areas in the United States.".
Through the dedication andChristian love of thousands. ofsupporters and volunteers "frommany denominations and coun-
tries this project called "Habitatfor Humanity*• has worked hardto fulfill its motto, "DecentHouses in Decent Communitiesfor God's People in Need."
However,' the materials forthese houses need to be boughtand they are financed through the/'Economics of Jesus", .thesacrificial giving of money andlabor by the comparatively richto help those who are not.
The Mercyhurst communitythrough the Campus Ministry haspledged to finance one of thesenouses in Guatemala. The costwill be$1,500 which isabout $1.00for each person on campus. We
will be collecting until we havereached our goal but we wouldreally like to have a substantialdownpayment by Christmas.Won't you help us to this unitedwork of Charity and give onefamily in the world new hoDe?

The Spring 1981 Semester willbeginon February 7 and run untilMay 23 with classes held everySaturday f rom 12:00 - 2:30 p.m.This Spring students will have anexcellent opportunity to par-ticipate in a wide variety ofcourses - including ForensicScience with Dr/ Jack Williams,an excellent course for thoseseeking'-to e x p a n d t h e i rknowledge in the criminalisticsfield; Issues in Correctional Ad-ministration taught by GaryLucht, Warden of the Erie CountyPrison; and Organizational andHuman Behaviorwith Andy Rothof the Mercyhurst> BusinessDepartment
Other Spring courses includeResearch Methods, Planning andEvaluation, and RehabilitationCounseling and Programs. Thefirst two courses are taught byDr. Prank E. Hagan, author ofthe forthcoming text, ResearchMethods in Criminal Justice and
Criminology, while the counsel-ing course is taught by BobSturm.
Tuition for these coursesis bas-ed upon the student's registrations t a t u s / T h e r e g u l a rundergraduate tuition fee ischarged if the student is using thecredit towards the completion ofthe BA degree, however, should astudent wish to count this coursetoward the MS, he or she mustpay graduate tuition but willbecome eligible for graduatefinancial assistanc e.This Spring,g r a d u a t e s t u d e n t s o rundergraduates enrolling forgradua te credit will receivea col-lege grant of$125 per course.

'Itis a unique chance to completeboth the Bachelors Degree andthe Masters Degreein a relative-
ly short period of time ." Dr.Hagan also feels that the pro-gram is one which 'teaches thestudent to be ready to accept anadministrative positionfor whichhe or she is fully qualifiedbecauseof the academic strengthof the course work involved.Many of our former students arenow directors of forensiclaboratories, parole and proba-tion offices, and security forces.'I think.that this attests to thequality of both our program andour students.' *
Those seeking to earn the MScan major in either Law Enforce-ment or Corrections Administra-tion. Both tracks require an18-credit core of courses in-cluding Research Methods,
Organizational Behavior, Pesonnel Administration, FiscAdministration, Planning AnEvaluation, and ProfessionEthics.

non's death earlier this week wasrece ived wi th shock a n ddisbelief.Just when he had madewhat could be termed a come-back with the release last monthof a solo album, Lennon was gun-ned down outside his Manhattanapartment by a man with noap-parent motive. The wasteof any
photo by Paul Popper Limitedhuman life in such a manner isalways a tragedy, bu t when ithappens to one who has at onetime or another entered eachofour lives,it hits hard. i
The news of Lennon's deathstirred in me an outpouringofthoughts. Foremost among thosewas that the Beatles would neverperform again on-stage. Thatpossibility alway s appeared veryremote anyway since the split ofthe Beatles— Lennon, Paul Mc-Cartney, George Harrisonan dRingo Starr — over ten yearsago. Bu t such a possibilitywasalways fuel for therumor mills.Lennon, outspoken on manyissues, was insistent that he wasagainst sucha reunion ever tak-ing place. . ; '-'
John Lennon was born in Liver-pool, England on October 9,1940.Teaming with McCartneyan dHarrison, an d thpn later Starr,
the group they formed changedpopular musicin the world fromthe moment they gained theirpopularity in the early 1960's. TheBeatles' musical roots wereinrhythm and blues, and its cap-tivating beat and driving rhythmquicklycaught on with the youngthroughout the w orld.!
W, Lennon's rise intoth e publicspotlight, along withthe rest ofthe Beatles, was not without con-troversy. Initially, their musicspawned an old-against-youngconfronta t ion . ! Par t icu lar lydisliked by many was the lengthof th e hair th e Beatles worea tthat time— quite short by today'sstandards.
Lennon stir redup his share ofcontroversy. One such instancewas in 1966, whenhe was quotedas saying that the Beatles werebigger than God. The reportingofthat statement influenced someto burn Beatle albums an dmemorabilia. Lennon manytimes since did not deny thequote, bu tsaid that it was takenout of context. Lennonand hiswife, Yoko, also made headlinesin 1968 when they stageda sleep-in as a campaignfor peace.i Various drug bustsan d otherrun-ins withthe-law also punc-tuated the Beatles' career s. But itwas their music which gainedthem their on-going popularity,and it w as their music which sus-tained them after the group brokeup in 1970. * mv, Lennon released severalalbums in the early seventies, butthen dropped out of the musicscene. Insteadof making music,Lennon devotedhis time towardthe family life,an d appeared tobe happy with such an existence.
That al l changed earlier thisyear. Lennon released a newalbum, and the single 'StartingOver' was moving well on thecharts. The song itself seemedtobe ' a statement of Lennon'smusical career,and it appearedhis attempt at starting overwould bea success.
'But likea bad dream, that's allover now. Gunshots outside Len-non's New York apartment endedall that. As of press time, therewas no apparent motivefor theshooting. New York police havein custody Mark David Chapmanin connection withthe shooting,which took place Monday night.

to the group which is given creditfor changing lifein the 60's a nd70's. Th eBeatles m ay just havebeenin the right place at the righttime, or maybe they werethefocal point of a change thatwasgoing to h a p p e n a n y w a y.Whatever their placein history
really is, theBeatles a re widelyviewed as a group whose musicchanged society.*
Lennon's careerin thepubliceye was marked with many emo-tions, including love, anger,idealism, bu t always with thatmystique that accompaniestheBeatles' legend. But maybe evenmore dominating than, thatmystique is the thread of in-nocence that comes fleetingtomind when the early Beatlesarerecalled. Many remember theBeatles as young and innocent;agroupof boys havingfun playingrock and roil. But as the 60's mov-ed on, so did theBeatles.
