    Lecorchick Leaves CollegeYoko Appointed ActingSports Information HeadBy Karen MerkleJim LeCorchick, Mercyhurst'sSports Information Director, hasdeparted the college as of Mon-day, February 13.Taking his place as acting direc-tor is junior communications ma-jor, Greg Yoko. H e will hold theposition until June, when a final

    decision will be made. No decisionhas-been made as to who willassume LeCorchick's |goldcoaching duties, kThe I posit ion of Sports Infor-mation Director was designed topromote, publicize, report andgive exposure to sporting eventsand athletes at MercyhurstCollege. |LeCorchick has held the posi-tion since August of 1982 whenhe'replacedlnterim director BobShreve. 7 ^W T ^ V WAccording to Mercy hurst Presi-dent Dr. William P. Garvey,.LeCorchick's departure was theresult of a mutual agreement bet-ween the administration andLeCorchick himself.* 'There was a general agree-ment that this (position) wasn'tJim's cup of tea," Dr. Garvey ex-plained. "We were not satisfiedand neither was he.""Jim's a reporter, an an-nouncer. He just doesn't have theaptitude or the interest in theother aspects of the (Sports Infor-mation Director's) job," Dr.Garvey continued. \

    Athletic Director Len Cyterskiagreed, saying, "I feel disap-pointed that we're losing Jim. Wehave discussed jthis since I tookover my position on January 2 ,and he didn't feel happy here."The decision is "the best onefor the institution and Mr. LeCor-chick," Cyterski added. -

    Jim LecorchickH o w e v e r , a n o t h e r a d -ministrative official at Mercy hurstcommented, "He (LeCorchick)was tired on Monday. It was com-ing on . . . a lack of job descrip-tion perhaps." 1 jzAfter being unable to reachLeCorchick by telephone at homeand at his office, The* Merciadcontacted him in person. LeCor-chick adamantly refused toschedule a time for an interview,and preceded to shut his formeroffice door in a Merciad staffmember's face. Therefore,

    LeCorchick was unavailable forcomment at press time.Yoko assumed the director'sduties Monday *af ernoon, iwhenDr. Garvey informed him of thedecision."I w as pleasantly surprised thatI was chosen," Yoko said. "It'ssomethingj that I've alwayswanted to do.""We've been impressed withthe job Greg has done-for TheMerciad," Dr. Garvey said. "Heknows the college and he knowsLaker sports very well."Cyterski said the athletic staff islooking forward to working withGreg, calling him "a young,energetic, dynamic individual.""The first thing I have to do isfini.Oy tiuihfiNskpfhaM ^ p ^Yoko said. I'd like to stablize theSports Information Depart-ment . . . to work closely with thecoaches*and the administration."One project Yoko would like toimplement is to get hometownnewspapers to ^recognize theirathletes. He would like to beginwriting press releases about'Hurst athletes and teams for then e w s p a p e r s i n s t u d e n t ' shometowns. {"I'm very grateful to be chosenfor the position," Yoko conclud-ed. "I knew that to get a job insports i$ a matter of being in theright place at the right time. Ithank God for blessingime withthis opportunity."

    Board Of Trustees Approve1984-85 Tuition IncreasejjBills to the normal full-time stu-dentlwill be, about $460 higher

    next year after the Board ofTrustees approved a tuition in-crease last week, Dr. William P.Garvey told The Merciad.The college president said thatthe hike is comprised of $360 fortuition and room rate increases of$90 for dorm dwellers and $100for apartment residents.It represents an approximate in-crease of eight percent, about thenational college average, he ex-plained. The additional funds willbe used primarily for salary in-creases* financial aid, fringebenefits and utility costs.Dr. Garvey said that although$100,000 was originally peggedfor student aid use, the ad-

    ministration is now concernedthat this figure will not be highenough to meet the need.In the past several years, he ex-plained that the Federal govern-ment has not significantly increas-ed their financial aid programs,yet the college has raised chargeseach year.

    "Hie kids have had to make upthe difference,";he said, and thishas brought about a need for ad-ditional institutional aid. "If wedidn't do this, many kids wouldhave to drop out of sch ool.""We're keenly aware and sen-sitive to the problems of ourstudents, or the- increase wouldhave been much higher," i headded.

    -Many people argue that inorder to be considered a college o fdistinction that charges have to bemuch higher,;Dr. Garvey said."People tend to perceive that themore it costs, the better quality itis. The arguement is that wecharge too little."

    : "The jreal debate is," he ex-plained, "should Mercyhurstbecome more of an elite college?"However, Dr. Garvey said he doesnot want this to happen, commen-ting! "We are pleased with ourstudent body now ."He concluded, "We have abeautiful plant .*>. . when youloot at the quality of the campusand the quality of the faculty, it isvery reasonable." *

    Student AddressesPep Band ApathyI am really upset with the at-titude of the people within*thisschool towards the newly formedpep band. This school is trying toform a band to give a little moreexcitement to t h e | basketballgames and such, but without thesupport of the ^people we arenothing.?I try very hard to be*at everyrehearsal and performance but nolonger can I attend if all I get outof it is disappointment. I fullyunderstand that the band has tobe given a couple of years tomature, but nn the meantime Ithink that all band membersshould be motivated enough to at-tend each practice session andeach performance as well. Untilthis is reached, I don 't believe thatthere should be any more perfor-mances of any kind.It has been I proven that* wheneach and every member of the

    band does in fact attend the prac-tices and performances * we > canperform quite well. The problemisthat this does no?happen veryoften. A few members alone cannot make up the band; there hasto be a joint effort betweeneveryone to keep this band alive.|* I am not putting down everyonethough. I give much acclaim toeach and everyfperson that sup-ports* the band. The one thing Ican not understand though, iswhy nothing better can come outof this band when we are given asurplus of money from Dr.D'Angelo. If this school reallywants a band I think that it shouldsuppo rt us even if it is only a littlebit. For the entire year we havelacked adequate suppply of musicand therefore limited our range ofmusic style. We have not beensupported by the school inanother way also. Does the foot-

    have been elected to official posi-tions in the recently-formed Mer-cyhurst chapter of the Interna-tional Association of BusinessCommunicators (IABC). $JfNatalie Ceraso was electedpresident of the organization,with Shane Brown and JackHolland, also juniors, chosen asvice ^president; and treasurer,respectively. Sophomore LisaBauman was chosen secretary.IAll four positions are one-yearterms that will end in January of1985. fThe IABC , though only startedon campus in January, alreadyhas 20 members on its * roster,which makes it the mostpopulated of the local studentchapters. 4The Behrend chapter has only12? members, while the Gannonchapter was recently dissolved.Mercy hurst's student IABCchapter is affiliated with Erie'smain chapter, and it is this rela-tionship that Ceraso hopes to ex-pand and strengthen^ *r% She said that membership in the

    campus chapter entitles studentsto attend not only the monthly'HursuIABC meetings, but alsothe monthly meetings of the Eriechapter. \The IABC is primarily anorganization for communicationsprofessionals in business and in-dustry, Ceraso explained.frThrough interaction with the Eriechapter, students can developcontacts and* build relationshipswith practitioners in the fields ofpublic relations, media, business,and industry, she said.Ceraso continued that allstudents from all majors on cam-pus are invited to join. There is$20 annual dues, that entitles themember to take part inf allorganizational activities.The club is trying to plan manyactivities for members, Cerasosaid. Besides going to Erie chaptermeetings, some possibilities beingconsidered are guestfespeakers atorganization meetings, educa-tional trips to local radio stationsand\ newspapers to learn moreabout the media and interactionnot only with the Erie chapter,

    but also with the BehrendVlABCstudents. \"I really want to startj thisorganization," Ceraso said.1 "Iwant to get it on.its feet. I'm ex-cited about it.' jI think Shane is going to workout really well," she continued"he's an idea man. Lisa has agood sense of responsibility, andJack has financial experience." *Ceraso hopes to have a fullorganizational schedule of clubactivities by next fall, and en-courages member* imput intoIABC business."Everyone wants! to be suc-cessful when they graduate," sheconcluded, "and that's why thischapter can help people get toknow what's going on in the realworld."P r a c t i c a lJ o k eC o n t e s t

    written by a local dramatist andchosen from entries submitted toStalsky by area playwrights. \Stalsky explained that this isn'tactually a contest, but that anyonein the area is encouraged to sub-mit a full-length drama or com-edy. The best play, according toStalsky, will be presented by Mer-cyhurst's Greensleeve Players astheir spring production.i There are no restrictions subjectmatter, Stalsky said, but he addedthat hopefully there would be nomore than 15 characters in theplay selected.The deadline for entries isMarch 1, since, Stalsky said, theproduction will go into rehersalsabout the middle of that month."This is something I've alwayswanted to do," Stalsky said. "Ithink there's a lot of talent in thistown, both acting talent, and ofcourse writing talent."He continued that since suchprojects are underwritten by thecollege,, "we can take the risk"-especially when professionaltheatre groups often won't pre-sent works by unknown authorsbecause there is usually little pro-fit involved? * 'Already four plays have beensubmitted in 4 CampusMinistry or The Merciadfor details, fe I t\ 1r

This is disgusting!The three men's contests werewonJby Mercyhurst and two ofthose went down to the wire,while the other was simply a timefor the players to showcase someof their talent.

Why then?

    And don't think I'm just ad-dressing the student body.The faculty and administrationare evenly apathetic.It is apparent that the 100 or sofaithful can' t inflict their 5 en-thusiasm upon the community.With my luck, the people who goto these games are the ones whpare reading this instead of the peo-ple that don't attend.iPerhaps Assistant BasketballCoach Bob MacKinnon summedthe situation up best when he saidthat the community is losing out."I think the students are miss-ing out on an exciting part of col-lege. Not only basketball, but anyactivity that is college oriented."Maybe MacKinnon is right, butit doesn't help the athletes.And, how about embarrass-: ; ; < . ffvwMi !WS ,%.),W:< i w * : :
