P C to Switch over to new grading system

September 14, 1984

Freshmen display talents

The annual freshman talent show at Peru State CQllege produced four winners and an evening of en· tertainment on the Campus of a Thousand Oaks last Monday, Sept. 10.

Master of Ceremonies at the talent show was last year's first place winner, sophomore Eric Rothell of .rural Tecumseh, whose guitar and sharp wit ikept the evening moving. according to PSC student programs coordinator Peggy Gibbs.

·Second place in the division, and the accompanying $20 prize, went to Andy Leonard for his gymnastics routine. He is the , son , of Viedrean Leonard of 6111 Frederick .in Omaha, and is zpajoring in industrial management technology at Peru State.

Taking home the $10 third place prize was Humboldt's Julie Nanninga. An elementary educatioA, .zmtjQr .and the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Peru State College is in ·the process of im·plementing a 4.0 point grade scale. to replace the 9.0 stanine scale currently used by the college, according to Dr. Clyde Barrett, vice-president. The main reason for switching to the 4.0 scale is to "aid in the recording and reporting of grades in a · manner more in time with other colleges," said. Barrett. Only two colleges in Nebraska remain using the 9.0 scale, Peru and Dana College in Blair, Nebraska. Switching to the 4.0 scale, which will go into effect in the fall of 1985, involves ·careful evaluation and much planning. Not only do you have to change the grading scale, you have to .change honor systems, financial aid, scholarships, academic overload, the honors program, progress

sheets, transcripts, and graduation distinctions just to mention a few.

The main people affected with this change will be the pipeline students or the students !currentlv ·enrolled. Marsha Kentopp, senior, said,"! feelit woUid be better in the long run, when students transfer to other universities it will l'UileverfWith their system. '-Hut with a 9.0 ·you can make more distinction witb grade status."

Verne Henzel, junior, said, "We look pretty backwards, still using a 9.0 scale. rm glad we're switching."

Marion Brennan, sophomore, said, "It will ·be no problem for me because that's what my high school ran on."

Crystal Geradi, alumni, said, think it's great. Puts us uniform with the rest of the world. You try to

apply for a job and have to convert the 9;0 scale to a 4.0 ·right there and then.·

Bnan Lotven, chaiJman of the Division of Education, said it works out really well with students who go on to graduate school. "I think it's great. When I came here I couldn't believe it was still a 9.0 scale," Lotven said.i

Dr. William Snyder; president ·of Faculty ASsociation, thought it was a step in the right direction for Peru. "The 9.0 scale is good eternally, but on a broader perspective it is better for students who wish ,, to. further their education," Sndyer stated.

There are many positive reasonsforswitching to the , 4.0 scale, but it will be a challenge for students, faculty, and administrators to all tackle together.

I believe the college has done a great job making provisions on this campus for .the ·steady increase in enrollment. But I feel sfodents are ·not taking into consideration certain areas hit heavily with .the increase of students. Particularly the Bob Inn; 13etty Reeves is.a part of history at Peru. Her kindness and dedj&ation is known by all. However lately students have been rather ungracious and are unaware of the tremendous service they receive from Betty. I do not k.now one time in four years that I .have not been greeted by first name and a generous smile when I enter the Bob Inn. On Tuesday, Sept. 11, at 12:00 noon I observed the animalistic behavior of Peru students in the Bob Inn.,, It was very crowded and Betty was working alone for awhile. Students were obnoxious, rude, and pushy. How many hamburgers can you fry in 5 minutes while making a ham and cheese omelet and waiting on 6 other students?

Try it sometime. The patience of that woman is unbelieveable.

When alumni come back to Peru they head straight tp

the Bob Inn because they know Betty will remember them. Betty takes a personal interest in students at Peru and I feel she deserves respect and kindness no matter what kind of mood you are in:

There is a substantial increase in students this year and will continue to be at PSC. But it is something we all can live· with. So next time you are in the Bob Inn and see 15 people in line try to be a little more understanding and kind. Betty is just trying to know you.

N.S.S.A. active in political affairs

By CARRIE NELSON

,

As we begin a new year, I'd like to present to you an organization Of which we · are all members and $.50 of your student fee supports.

The Nebraska State Student Association (N.S.S.A.), 1981, is a private, non-rofit organization committed to promoting quality, public higher education. Our ·membership includes Peru, UNL, UNL, Wayne, ood Cha4ron State College.

Peru decided to become a member because, at the time, the founding mem· bers saw that a political participation with other

college students in voicing viewpoints on matters concerning us students was important. N.S.S.A. has grown in recognition, accorµplishments, and membership. One main goal is to.increase student awareness of con· cerning us, and channel those · through the organization ,to the decision-making process·of our state government.

'The organization employs an executive director, Deb Chapell, and a highly qualified lobbyist. Other expenses go to communications, various fees, chapter maintenance,

needed equipment, and travel reinbursement.s.

Some concerns have been: promoting equal access to public higher education regardless of financial status or physical challenges; promoting responsible financial assistance to students; promoting equitable faculty salaries and benefits; and promoting greater student participation in voting.

This October will be our fall. assembly at UNO. At this time we will be making decision on the policy platfonn, what N.S.S.A. will be working towards ·

this year. It's also an opporfunity to-learn more and meet students from around the state. If interested, please talk to me or leave your name at the Student Senate office, Student Center, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Voter Registration

During the week of September 17, N.S.S.A. will hold a student voter registration. At this time, students can register to vote and request absentee ballots to be sent to them here in Peru. Please watch for signs. posted giving exact days and times.

The fashion show, sponsored ·by the Student Senate at PSC, begins at 8 p.m. in the College Auditorium. A $1.00 admission fee will be applied towards the Senate Scholarship Fund, according to coordinator

On Peru's campus there is approximately 1,200 students. I think you will agree with me that 1,200 votes can change the outcome of an issue. ·

Judging by the turnout in recent elections, about one of every two eligible voters will go to the polls on Election Day 1984. The, figure for the 1980 Presidential election was 52.4 per cent.

Unless you and million like you become active citizens and urge friends and relatives to do the same, the dismal trend toward non-participation will continue.

Those who sit out an election, thinking, of it as a "spectator sport," often find that 'their side ends up losing. And far more than a game is at stake.

Those whom we choose for the Presidency and the Congress will vitally influence our domestic welfare, foreign policy, and most importantly our education.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, our 34th president stated, "The issues of war and peace are too important to be left in the hands of politicians." This statement has .some truth to it. It is time we students should stand up and be counted.

The right to vote is the most visible g.,uarantee of our freedom, I urge you all to regjster to vote. And remember, if you do not have a voter's registration card you don't have a gripe card.

to bring out the fact that the Student Senate haveregular office hours in the Student Center. Our office is located in the southeast corner of the upper level, and is open.from 11 a.m. to 1p.m. every weekday. This is another opportunity for you to get involved or have your say in how Peru State business is conducted:

Your Senators have lately taken care of many of the yearly duties which are required for a smooth running Homecoming. Elections were held, and the finalists are to be congratulated.

When all was said a done, the Student Sen finally were able to some lockers placed in Sbdent Center for c muters and anyone e who needs them. I'd like thank Dean Joy and Gallentine for their help securing these for th students.

Well, once. again m letter is short, but th again, so is time right no Everybody relax, enjoy th parade, watch the pla and just listen to the musi at the dance following th Peru State rout of Chadr State.

NSSA Voter Drive Success

Approximately 128 students registered to vote and-or made absentee ballot requests, in the Student Center this and last month. Thank you! Tiili drive, "Student Vote '84"

sponsored by our Nebraska State Student Association (NSSA), and the NCICS, National Coalition of Independent College Students. Tne joint effort is

an attempt to-"gain forces with students throughout the state to vote," as quoted by Deb Chapelle, our executive director for NSSA,. "Education is a lop priority this election and students need to take an active part - in the democratic process. Students need to show up at the ballot box and let their voices be heard."

Traditionally, voters in the 18-24 year old category

have followed behind the rest and it was great to see a lot of 18 and 19 year olds register here. When you get your forms from the county you requested, please complete the process and send them back. There will be someone on campus to notorize them for you. H anyone didn't get a chance' to register I have forms in the Senate office in the Student Center.

"We added some height through our recruiting," he said, "And we have a better range of shooters this year."

Returning lettermen to this year's squad include Mark Ortmeier, Scot Hogan, and James Collins. Ortmeier, a forward· center, is the only returning starter, to the team. West Point native averaged 4.8 points per game and 3.1 Hogan, a 6-5 sophomore from Omaha who saw limited playing time last season, is one of several players pushing for a starting spot as forward, according to Gibbs.

The team received · a setback in the pre-season when Collins, a 5-10 junior from Kansas City, and Brad Wagner, a 6-7 transfer, both were sidelined

The Bobcats also return forward Corky Wiseman, a 6-4 senior from Chicago, ID., who was a squad man last year.

The 1984-85 Bobcats will rely heavily on newcomers and freshmen to carry the load.

Gibbs said that 6-4 fr.eshman Bruce Knaak will also see extensive playing time. The Plainview native is an excellent outside shooter, ·and will contest for a starting position at for· ward.

The backcourt will feature new players in Dean Farley, Keith Drew, and Bender.

Free tutoring offered

By KEVIN GRIESS

The Communication Skills Center at Peru State College in Peru, Nebraska is offering free tutoring in all subjects, consisting of a Writing Lab and a Reading Lab.

Former Peru State track and cross country standout Jack Weyer will be in· ducted into the NAIA Athletic Hall of Fame, · announced by Harry Fritz, Executive Direetor of the N,ational 'Association of Intercollegiate Athletics; A native of Sterling, ·Neb., Weyers was a four· time NAIA All-!merican in cross country at Peru State, a feat not duplicated by any District 11 athlete in cross country.

During his four-year career at Peru, Weyers finished in the top 15 in the national championships each of his four seasons.

Kimberly Comstock, junior ,said "I think the switch is great, Peru's grading system has been outdated too long.,, Rebecca 'Kofll's; senior said "It's about time Peru has decided to keep up with the times, it will make us more uniform with the rest of the college systems.,, Dr. Larry Caldwell, English professor at Peru State thought it is a good idea, however he is con: cerned with the minus aspect of the new scale. He would prefer the plus instead of the minus be used. He feels the plus would be much more positive and the minus is too negative.

Mr. Lee Kohrs, computer science instructor, feels it's about time Peru switched over. On the lighter side Mr. Kohrs predicts that in two years all other colleges in the state will be switching back to the 9.0 scale and Peru will again be outdated.

Mr. Everett Browning, English professor, also stated he thought the change was a good idea. Since all other colleges were using it and everyone would have a better understanding of it.

The switching to the 4.0 scale will be a challenge to students, faculty and ad· ministrators but, hopefully all will enter into this change with a positive attitude and it will be a challenge all can work together to conquer.

At the present time, there ate 26 tutors available to all full-time or part-time students of Peru .State ()ollege. Twenty-one ·tutors are available for Reading lab, while 5 tutors aid in the Writing lab.

The Reading Lab is designed to improve the student's comprehension. level. After only 9 weeks of school, tutors in the Reading lab have read over to win 37 of 47 meets as a a very rapid pace, compared to last year's total of readings which numbered six hundred, also, but that is after the entire year. The location for assistance involving tutors is in the Education Building, Room 305. This lab is offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m .

The Writing Lab is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m during the days Monday through Friday in the Education Building, Room 303. Also, this lab is offered from 7 to 9, two hours a night on every weekday, in the Student Center Office.

Tutors are .also offered for Business Math students in the Education Building in Room 303, on every weeknight from 7 to 9 p.m.

Interested students should contact Linda Warren in the Education Building, Room 307, or call her on extension 203, or better yet, attend one of the free labs offered by Peru State,s Communication Skills Center.

During the 1970 season, Weyers showed his dotJjination in the sport by winrung each of the 11 meets that Peru competed in, and help,ed the team to claim ten of the 11 regular· season meets.

Competing from 1967-70, Weyers helped the Bobcats to win 37 of 47 meets as a ·team.

Weyers earned four letters as a member of the team, and is the current record holder of eight events.

Weyers dominance was also illustrated by his outdoor mile record of 4:08.r. In addition to the mile, he also owns Peru State bests in the two, three, and six-mile runs, and was a member of the record-setting distance medley relay.

Weyers currently holds three indoor records, including the 1000 meters, mile and twO"mile.

At the completion of his · career, Weyers set a ·· record for every distance in cross country that he ran, all of which still stand· today. ·

A1971 graduate of Peru state with a bachelors' of science degree in education, he currently lives in .rural Sterling where he raises and trains horses.

Weyers will be the fourth Peru State dignitary to join the NAIA Hall of Fame, · along with such greats as Al Wheeler (football coach), Jack Mcintire (football player), and Omer Meeker (basketball player).

Bobcats finish season with 6-4 mark

Even though the Peru State football team lost the final the '84 season to Midland College Saturday the Bobcats finished the year with a: winning 6-4 record.

"I'm happy that we had a winning season," said head coach Jay Adcox. "There are a lot of teams in the country that be 6-4, andl'm o£.the things we accoriiplished this year."

Atotal of twelve seniors completed their careers Saturday afternoon. The Bobcats will lose just sen,iors on defense, including defensive ·guard •Todd Ross, defensive end Bob Chappell and safety Jeff Parker.

Offensively, the Bobcats will have some holes to fill with the graduation of eightplayers, and five starters, including Joe LaRosa, offensive guard; Jeff -·· _<;eorge, running back Tony · Georte;Greg Conn, center; Todd Halvorsen, center; Willie Mingo, split end; David Pasley, fullback; and Kelly Juhl, tight end.

Adcox said that Joe LaRosa, Jeff George, and offensive tackle Jim Krajicek will be nominated for All-District honors, while defensive starters Todd Ross, linebacker; Pat Mertens and defensive back Fred Lee will all receive defensive consideration.

"Maybe we peaked a little too early a:s a team," Adcox said. "Once we got · over the hump of having a winning season, we appeared to have a let down."

The Bobcats lost their first home game this season and ended a fivegame winning streak at home, as they were defeated 18-0 by Midland· Lutheran College in the Oak Bowl.

The loss was the fourth of the season for the Bobcats, and marked the second straight week the team was shutout.

Fullback Ray Koonce rushed 38 times for 209 yards and two touchdowns in leading Midland to the upset victory.

Leading 6-0 with 3:13 left in the first half, the Warriors took the ball at Peru's 31 'yard line following a punt. Midland marched the ball down the field in just five plays, as Koonce carried three times, including the final one yard for a touchdown, to give the visitors a 12-0 halftime. lead.

The Bobcats threatened in the fourth quarter, following a fake punt by Midland that was sacked behind the line of scrimmage by defensive end Mike Patterson.

Peru took the ball at Midland's 31 yeard line and ran nine plays to.reach the Warrior one yard line.

Halfback Jeff George was stopped short of the goal line on a dive play on fourth down, stopping the Bobcats' only threat of the afternoon.

Koonce, the nation's leading rusher last season, added another touchdown latein the game, a 21· yarder with 1:39 remaining in the fourth period.

Halfback Jeff George finished his career by moving into second place on the all-time rushing list at Peru State. George carried 22 times for 139 yards against Midland, to give him 2220 yards in his career.

George became only the second back to gain over 1000 yards in a season,· as he rushed for 1103 this season, which ranks fourth amongst single-season bests. '

"Jeff played an outstanding game for us," Adcox said. "He's a quality back and has done the job for us all year long." ·

Linebacker Pat Mertens finished the year by adding to his school record for most tackles in a single· season. The jun'ior recorded three solo, and ten assisted tackles to raise his season total to 163, while leading the team with seven interceptions.

Despite not intercepting a pass in either of the final two games, the Bobcat defense tied the school mark for most interceptions at 21, set in 19Jl3.

Adcox said the coaching staff will now concentrate on off-season recruiting, and the season performance.

J'I don't think we reached our personal expectations," Adcox added. "It was unfortunate that. we didn't win the final two games, but even so, we still ended the season as winners."

Adcox, who completed his second season at the helm, now has a career coaching mark i>f ten wins ·and nine losses: FOR

It is rather obvious that the Bobcats·are not quite up to par in the area of basketball. But that does not give the entire campus the right. to become chair" coaches.

It does not help the moral of the team or the coaches to have employees of this institution of higher learning slamming the coaches and the job they're doing.

Anytime of the day that you people want to hightail it down to the HPER Center and relieve the coaches, I'm sure they would appreciate your expert advice.

This group is only a few select people. But one rotten apple spoils the whole bunch. The fans give enough heckling to last a lifetime, so the team really doesn't need ''arm chair'' coaches standing around the Student Center or Administration Building recapping the mistakes of previous games.

I hope these people will realize the damage they have done for the morale of the. teams and will sit back in their chairs and watch the games, not coach them.

Dear Editor: Cont.emplating the goals of the American education system, certain inherent responsibilities emerge. As we are all aware, college serves as a training ground; preparing students for life in the higl,lly competitive job market. Beyond this basic function, the education system ideally should instill such qualities as ·awareness, decency, sensitivity, compassion for mankind, and a sense of responsibility. The student ' enters college encased : within the narrow confines of youthful narcissism and hopefully emerges as an adult, cognizant of the needs and concerns' of humanity.

Keeping in mind these · fundamental principles, · centers for higher learning · should offer courses that J will allow the student to · meet these goals. When surveying the Peru State College spring schedule, I was saddened to discover a lack of social work classes being Reading a single edition of a daily

newspaper, one becomes instantly aViare of the dire need in society for compet.ent social workers who devote their lives to alleviating the burden suffered by multitudes of oppressed people. America is infest.ed with sorrow and human misery, manifested in the lives Of the poor, the hungry, the abused, the mentally and physically incapacitated, the homeless, and the most wretched of all living organisms, those who are without hope. Society needs individuals who are equipped with the intellect and desire to reach out and help those enmeshed in the horrors Of this man-maae

Letter to the Editor Tough

Perhaps the field of social work does not reap the financial rewards common Jo many ·· otner occupations, but money in relation to basic . human rights and dig_nity, is highly insignificant: Regardless of facts, as often indicated by statistics, I do not believe the sole motivating force perpetuating humans through life, is the quest for

monetary accumulation; •·· I implore those in- ,, dividuals, endowed with · the decision-making power ·••· at Peru Stat.e, to consider · offering courses in social , work in the near future. The need is indisputable, and there are a number of students eager to accept the challenge of tackling the many injustices within ·. our. imperfect, troubled· world. ·

Granted, there are skeptics who may interpret my. views as utopian in - essence but Ifirmly believe the human condition can be improved through the acquisition and application· of ' knowledge, me development of skills, the showering of love and understanding and steadfast determination. I hope PSC will assist myself and others in attaining our humanitarian deams. ,

Letter to the Editor

Can you folks ·at Peru State remember when our basketball teams didn't ·have cheerleaders. Well if you can't, let me refresh your memory. Our basketball teams had cheerleaders, but they didn't come to all the home

games and seldom at· tended an entire women's game. Why didn't they show up? Well, they took a large amount of flack from basketball fans, particularly their college peers. They got little cooperation from the fans

when they did cheers were referred to as " study."

Well all that sh change now. We dedicated Peru S basketball cheerlead Besides the fact that attire is excellent, they required to attend all h games (men and worn These young la practice two hours a six days a week, wit pay. I don't call that" study." Sometimes have to make three g. a week. In the future I Peru State basketball will support the hard of our cheerleaders. thing is for sure, I preciate our cheerlea and I hope I can speak the men and wome basketball teams.

What is there to do. in Peru? PLENTY!! !Let's take Tuesday, December 11, for an example. No matter what your fancy is, it could have been satisfied' that night. Just like any night in Peru. If you enjoy singing you could have attended the Madrigals and Student Recital concert.

Sports buff? There was the triumphant basketball gamestarring the Bo.beats. Still bored?

There was th'e Newman Club chili supper at Campus Ministries. Not your bag? You could have stood outside. Delzell and watch 155 students evacuate for a fire.

And last but not least, for the women of Peru you . could have ventured dow,ntown to see the exotic dancers. It was a relaxing;eveningfor many of Peru's female population. Agood time was had by all. This just goes up to prove while your relaxing at home over Christmas break think of what you're missing at Peru State College.

If you would like to find out more about Delta Sigs and missed the rush party on Thursday (24th) it's not too late.

Senate Forum

Welcome back. There ls a lot of good news to come back to as far as the Senate is concerned.

First of all, the College has adopted a new 4-point grading scale, as most of your know. The Senate was successful in working for the grading scale we thought was the most beneficial to the students.

Dr. Gallentine is to be commended for his willingness to list.en to the · students.

On December 21, a conunittee appointed by · Dean Joy met to discuss the priorities for the ad· dition to the Student - Center. The list which was developed is totally in line with the student's needs, and we are looking forward to see development begin.

Mother-daughter duo at PSC

By CAROLINE McLAUGHLIN

It's fairly common for college students to have their brothers, sisters, or cousins attending the same school as they. But how many students can regard their mothers as a fellow student?

Joann Hollesen, a freshman from Nebraska City, and her mother Alyce Hollesen, also a freshman, fit into this category. They both feel that attending the same school has made a positive impact on their lives, both in and out of the classroom.

Receiving a scholarship was the incentive for Joann to come to PSC. It was then that Alyce decided that she, too, should make the comeback to becoming a student once again. Both like the smallness of PSC and the close distance it is to their home in Nebraska City. They both find the people here friendly and helpful.

"The students here aside a meeting time at the really made it nice for me, Bob Inn. They feel they can especially in the beginning count on each other for of the year. To them, I'm , support and guidance in not older, I'm just another school matters. "We really student.

Joann replied, "Since mom is in college now, she, too, realizes that the work.isn't so easy. She now un· derstands what it's like to have a lot of homework, since she has to study now, too."

Both Joann and Alyce feel it's important to keep in close contact during the school week, as Joann lives in a campus donnitory and Alyce commutes. They seek each other out , regularly, usually setting

In addition to sharing academic interests, both Joann and Alyce agree that going through college, together is a base for developing ideas about themselves. Alyce summed it up by "We both

see that we're both learning and changing through our experiences here at school. We enjoy sharing each other's different ideas and views about things we are involved in here."

Letter to Editor

Tribute to;Brian Weber

Today my heart had to say good-by to Brian· Weber. No, I didn't know him long - just since · September. But in that short time his honest, unpretentious manner, his sincere open expressions and his guarded smile had · found a way inte my heart. · Apd I blinked back the tears as I pondered that· perhaps God, who had known Brian longer than anyone - even Brian's own family, the God who made Briah all the wonderful things thathe is, wants him back, has a plan, has'a life a thousand' times more grand than I, his college

teacher, or even his parents, family and friends could ever offer.

Through my imperfect eyes, I saw Brian as a diamond slightly in the rough. I wotlld have liked more time to have polished -. a few more debits and credits, a chance to have inspired a few more goals and dreams; then graduation.

Our Creator, who sees throughmuchmore perfect eyes, must have seen Brian as a gem already ·highly polished, brilliantly shining and ready now for graduation.

In my heart I would have

liked to have selfishly kept the Brian I knew, but in my mind I know that I, or anyone else in this world, can't compete against. crystal rivers, streets of gold, gates of pearl, a perfect body and an eternity of unspeakable joys!

So today my heart had to say good-by to Brian Weber, but my mind says, "Brian, you lucky boy! Congratulations! Graduation day is here for you! You couldn't have done better! See you."

New Alcohol Policy

Do you ever wonder what process it takes to change ' policies on this campus? Probably not, but I'll clue you in on something. The students can change a few things around here. ·.For example, does it bother you· that Monday and Friday's classes start at one time, Wednesday's another time, and Tuesday's and Thursday's yet another time. It doesn't fjlzeyou, right.

Well if it does, here is what you do. First Qf all talk to some of your professors. Believe it or not they all do not hate you.· Talk to them and see how they;feel about the situation. Chances are they· are not any happier than you are.

Next step, find out who your Student Senate repre- · sentatiave is. Hard job? No. Every dorm has at least one representative. Tell them you hate the time your classes ar.e and that you'll kill them if they do not change them. A little harsh but it will get the point across.

Senate will then in turn go directly to Student Affairs, and tell them what they think. Exactly!

And if all of this does not change a policy we picket the Administration Buidling. So you see, ·you can change policies at Peru State College.

By CAROLINE McLAUGHLIN

Last year, the idea of building an exercise trailto promote physical fitness for the students of Peru State College and the community merpbers of Peru was an optimistic dream of PSC Athletic · Director Maxine Mehus.

· Today, that dream becomes an exciting reality as the long awaited "Exer-Trail" is in its initial stages of building.

"The trail components itself are here and the ground has been broken for the trail to be .built. Right now, we're just waiting for · the ground to thaw so · building can begin," Mehus stated. "The trail should be completed sometime in late spring." A dedication of "Exer-Trail" should occur sometime next fall.

- The trail will be located in an area behind Majors Hall and HPER Center, a

distance covering 1.2 miles with exercise stations set at .5 mile intervals. The start of the trail will be easily visible as a "Welcome to Exer-Trail" sign will be posted near the street between Majors Hall and HPER Center. Participants can either walk or run the paved course and exercise at the progressive exercise .stations.

Funding for "ExerTrail" came from many sources, the principle one being a Title Ill research

grant under the supervision of Ken Billups. This grant .states clearly the benefits and research

value of such an exercise program. Mebus also commented that various clubs and organizations on campus such as Circle K. Student Senate, and Women's Athletic Association provided much additional funding.

Mehus feels "ExerTrail" will be a very · positive addition to Peru State College and the town ·

itself. "I feel the people here in Peru will respect the trail and regard it highly. People today are more conscientious about being fit and I feel this will be an incentive for them to stay healthy.".

The constr.uction of "Exer-Trail" is of personal satisfaction to Mebus. "I'd like to look back a11d know I made this possible. This trail is a major. addition to the college and the community of Peru, so it makes me feel good to know that when I do leave Peru, I left it better."

"Super Board"

As college students we should be aware at all times what is going on in the But now is the time when we should be more than just aware, we should react. How, you ask. Well, in a variety of ways. There are four major issues that can affect Peru State College this ye,ar. They deal with consolidation of the Board of Regents and the Board of Trustees, jurisdiction of the institutions, and a bill to allow scholastic achievers to attend Nebraska Colleges at in-state tuition rates.

I urge all students to pay close attention to what is happening in the. legislature. Merging the Regents with the Trustees will benefit the University only. We will be left out in the cold. It will be one large political debate to see who gets the budget cuts.

You can voiee your ·opinion in these ·matters that affect you as a student. Contact your senator from your home town. Tell him briefly, but to the point exactly how you feel about Peru State College. Without your input Peru could be in for a very rude awakening.

Student Aid Cuts

The proposed student aid cuts will be damaging to all programs. The severity of the current proposals would be devastating to students in Nebraska, and throughout the nation, according to Deb Chapelle, Executive Director of the Nebraska State Student Association in which Peru belongs to.

The budgefplan calls for a.$2.3 billion reduction in student aid programs overall. Included would be absolute family income caps of $32,500 for students applying for Guaranteed Student Loans, and $25,000 for students applying for grant a,id such as Pell Grants and College Work Study. The proposal would also place a $4,000 annual cap on the amount of aid ANY student could receive.

Think how many students at Peru will be cut out of financial aid. It is estimated that over a million students, nationally' could be prevented from receiving financial assistance. ·

As students we must fight this plan. Congress must hear from you, as a student, the plight it will be for you to attend college without financial aid. I ruge students to write their Congressmen and let them know how financial aid is your ticket to your future.

With spring break finally here, we get a chance to relax and thirtk about what is still ahead (lectures, quizzes, and tests; trust me). It is also a good time to look back, and for Senate there is quite a bit to look back at. ·

This year's Senate was elected on March 21, 1984. Quite a bit of activity has taken place since then on this campus

The first major Senate project or holding ·our own leadership seminar brought us back to Peru with the new students. Senate was on hand to help out with the New Student Weekend. Soon after classes began, ·we were invited to have a student 1 representative on the Peru Chamber of which is a first for state colleges in Nebraska as far as I know. We also opened up the Senate officei. for regular hours, and the first annual fashion show was · held in cooperation with local businesses.

Lockers were obtained for the Student Center, and soon Senate began work towards· Homecoming, which was a great success.

The Peru students were well represented at 91e Governor's Conference on · Higher Education at Kearney, and at a regional leadership conference held at Wayne State College. This year the four state

college student senates all came toget.per to share ideas and work with·.each other in improving life for · enrolled at the state colleges. 1

As far as the Student Center itself, we are still looking forward to the new addition, and. the Senate. has been active in this project. We also have a ride board for the students· which we hope to have up soon.

This year also saw a new · grading policy passed. Through hard work by Senate members in committees and by voicing their opinions, the policy .. passed was the one most · beneficial to the students. There have been a lot of other things the Senate has been working for, and many good things have happened. I. could write for hours on some of the accomplishments, both as a group, and as individuals. But now it is time for the election of the 1985-'86 Student Senate. There is still quite a bit of work to be done, but if you think Senate is all. work, you're wrong. Just ask a Senator. It is your chance to have a say, and see things accomplished. Why not pick up a petition and run for Senator-at-Large, or maybe Dorm tative. H you are. a· commuter or a non.traditional student, run/for one of these seafs. The students need you.

Season Finished

Lady's Break Records

Although the 1984-85 basektball season has been somewhat disappointing for the Peru State Lady Bobcats, they did end the year in fine fashion by pounding Wayne State College 77-59 in the HPER Center Tuesday night. Head coach James Libal, coaching in his final game at Peru State, said the Lady Bobcats played one of their finest games of the season. "We played a fine all-around ball game for 40 minutes," he said. "Our · underclassmen showed a lot of poise and confidence shooting the ball;" Peru State used a 15·1 spurt over a span of six minutes late in the first half to stretch a 25-22 ad· vantage into a commanding 40-23 lead. Linda Shepard sparked the Lady · Bobcats with seven points in the string, but it was the scoring punch of freshmen Beth Scholl (Creighton), Loretta Nuckolls (Shenandoah, Iowa), and Jill. Novicki (Fullerton) that made the difference. All three chipped in six points in the half, to combine for 18 of 42 total points.

· Deb Nygren's hoop for wsc with 11:21 to play trimmed the margin to eight points at 52-44, but the Lady Bobcats answered with a i3-0 run, including six points from Linda ·Shepard, and five from Leigh Moss, that saw Peru · opn a 65-44 advantage with 6: 55 remaining. Shepard, led the Lady Bobcats with a game-high 29 'points, including 18 in

half. Leigh Moss, a 6-0 sophomore, added 11 points and a season-high 11 rebounds.

Tuesday's contest also marked the final collegiate games for seniors Linda Shepard and Georjean Sch· mike.

Shepard, a 5-7 guard, finishes her career as the second alMime leading scorer · in women's collegiate basektball in Nebraska. The Lincoln Northeast graduate. accumulated a total of 1905 points in her career, making her the all-time leading NAIA scorer in Nebraska.

Schmike, six points against Wayne State to close out her career with 247 points, 16th on the all, time leading scorers list at Peru State.

A fifth year senior, Schimke finishes the season as the team's leader in assists with 47, and closes out her career second all-time in that , category with 156.

"Our seniors showed a lot of floor leadership this season," Libal said. "Both were elected team captains and did a super job in that role."

Despite ending the year with a 4-25 mark, the Lady Bobcats broke seven recrods during the course of the season. The Lady Bobcats established new marks for high rebounding average (39.2), most rebounds' (1138), most field goals attempted (1966), most assists (235 ), most steals (211), most

rebounds, game (65) and most losses (25).

"I thought the turning point in the season was the Hastings Tournament (Jan. 4-6)," Libal said. "I felt we could get things going after that and win some games, but we had some personal problems that prevented us from doing that."

Shepard, the NAIA District ll's leading scorer this season at 23.8 points per game, will close out her career as the holder of 21 ·individual game, season, and career marks. Shepard set or tied 18 of those records during the 84-85 season.

"Linda has really been one of the top players in the District for the past two years," Libal said. "Her overall game was so far ahead of last season. She's d,eserving of. some type of All-American recognition."

"This team has to rank as one of the top two most improved teams I've coached," Libal added. the 18 years I've coached, this team showed as much improvement over the course of the season as any I've had before."

Libal, .a former high school coach at Lewiston, Norris and Centennial Public Schools, will finish his two-year reign as the second winningest coach at Peru State with 22 wins.

Dr. Wayne Daviqson, the. chairman of the Division of Physical Education, has been named to succeed Libal for next season.

''Spare Us''

The State College Board of Trustees has voted unanimously to oppose a proposal by the Legislature's Appropriations Committee that tuition be increased 5.5 percent for 1985-86. Tuition at Chadron, Wayne, Peru, and Kearney state colleges has risen by more than 77 per<:etlt since 1978, from $15 .50 per credit hour to $27.50.

This is a positive step for Peru State College. But even though tuition is low and our dormitory occupancy has risen by 64. 9 percent since 1981, there are some people in this lovely state who believe that Peru should be closed down.

There have been two separate editorials in the last month referring to the "benefits" of closing Peru.

So I have a wonderful proposal. Why don't some of you more brilliant students get together and comprise a wonderful excerpt explaining what drastic things will happen to the universe if Peru is closed. I'm sure theOmaha World-Herald would see fit to print it.

·As we go through this life, We will make many friends.

Some we will know for only a shortwhile; Others for a much longer time.

, Some we will always have close to us to share our daily lives;

Others we won't see so often,

Yet we'll think of them just the same.

Whether they're near or far,

Friends are important to have.

Friends are the best there is in life.

From all your friends at Peru State.
