Housing Situation Under, In,vestigation

Last summer, Stevens faced a critical situation in campus housing. Some students may remember the anticipation they felt wondering whether or not , they would be able to get a room on campus this year. During the summer there was, a list of at least 20 people waiting for a room assignment. In some cases it was necessary to move people who had already been assigned rooms to a different room to make provisions for other students. The reason for all of this was a shortage in dormitory space.

••• B. 's, G. Read, ,for More!

'Winter" Storms

., , The predioted Once again the salting and rain the of Jan. 20, but it sanding crews set towork, an'd was not' to be so. When all 'the 'whelJ' the campus was back to precipttation done, 16 in- an acceptab.le condition B & G - ches of snow, had fallen. The had gone'through 30 tons Buildings and Grounds crew's of salt and calcium, chloride task of, clearing the snow corfloined. started early Friday morning" while the storm was still in full force, and did rot·' get. totally finished until Monday.

Compounding the of r,emovlng the unexpected snowwas the pressing time factor. Classes were 'scheduled to start 'Monday and most' of tlie students Were going to be arriving Sunday. The school's main arteries got first in '\ being cleaned; then the dorms, jhe and the 'other facilities B &. G's 'task force used a full crew and five plows, and by:Sundaythe campus was .open to traffic.

.

Talking,to Steve Kessock, the grounds supervisor, the STUre found that B & G ran into only one major problem: where to put the snow.' B &G does not have the equipment for major snow transportation. The cam pus as a whole suffered no major damage as a result of the storm. There are a few pot holes and minor leaks, but in the words of Kessock, it was "nothing B & G couldn't handle." The snow removal equipmenfneeded only minor repairs after the operation. '

The snow was not the end of B & G); troubles however. Justas B & G got their feet back-on the ground they were hit with a rain and ice storm that left the campus in a treacherous condition.

Poll' Results

The following data represents part of the results of the Grading Poll conducted by the Student Review Board. It represents ·the response of approximately 300 students who submitted completed forms. A more complete analysis may be found in the flies of the Student Review Board in terms of class, and currioulum subdivisions ,and other data obtairled from the polls.

1. Do the grades you usually receive in a oourse adequately reflect your knowledge in that course?

Ves 40%

No 60%

(Continued on page B, col. 4)

According to Kessock, B& G did' an excellent job and in his words, "we' could handle another ,storm tomorrow." It would be an interesting situation if Stevens did get another 16 inches of snow tomorrow.

Every year enrollment at Stevens increases a'nd with new students coming in the increase in housing applications " goes up. Projections for enrollment and housing increases In coming years predict that approximately .52% of ttie total student enrollment of all classes will want to live on campus. This" figure does not include the 20% of the students who will live in fraternities. Figures show that at least 7?%

of the Stevens undergraduates reside on campus. Next year there will be a need for at least 50, maybe more, additional beds. This may not sound like much but when you think about the fact that special provisions must be made for the Increase In the female enrollment, there is a problem. Where will these people live?

A committee consisting of Mr. l.unghard, Dean Eversen, and representatives of the Graduate Student Association is vestigatlng various possibilifies for future housing facilities: fortunately, the possibilities cannot be disclosed at this time because no definite arrangements have been made. However, assurance has been given from one of the committee members that definite provisions will be made by April, when housing applications will be going out. How soon before April is vague, but the possibilities are interesting and the outcome will affect every student.

STUGO Spring Plans

STUCO met thl"s past Sunday to discuss its plans for the Spring semester. Also on the agenda was the consideration of three new, club constitutions.

The first members heard from were the STUCO officers. Jim Weatherall reported that the S.A.F. inorease had been Implemented, with a $12.50 sur·charge added to'th!S semester's bills. He also appointed Cindy

Plagiaris,m Policy Set

The Honor Board has adopted a policy defining piaglarism. Dorn of the Humanities Department, at the Board's request, developed a set of guidelines for standards of scholarship. They are as follows:

1. Do not report the Ideas of other students as "experts" wIthout acknowledging them by using ali appropriate bibliographical format to Identify sources of Information.

2. Do not omit quotation marks from any passages or passage-portions of a work which are cited literally. Do not forget to give credit for paraphrased ideas.

3. Do not use a paper done in a previous course for another without gaining prior permis-

sion from the instructor of the second course. If a paper is to be submitted to two oourses simultaneously, gain prior permission from both structors.

4. Do follow the rules of critical scholarship In completing all academic work. Acceptable format standards and their rationale are described in Kate iurabian's Guide to Student Writing.

In the future If there is any question concerning papers or lab reports these guidelines will be the basis for determining plagiarism.

In adaition the Honor Board has decided that all undergraduate students In graduate level courses are subjected to the jurisdiction of the Dean of Graduate Studies.

of Research Directors and the Industrial Research Institute.

Or. Caldwell received his bachelor's and doctoral degrees from Iowa State UniVElrsity. He and his wife, Pauline, are residents of Tewksbury Township, N.J. '

There are six more rounds of play left in intramurals. It is hoped that they will be able to be finished before vacation with the playoffs also occurring prior to the break.

Welcome back to another action-packed, sports-filled semester here at Stevens. In the past weeks five varsity teams have been competing, and everything is going pretty much according to plan. The mens fencing team is cleaning up in its division while the women are 2-3 and hanging tough against some strong opposition. 80th of these situations were expected, and their successes and setbacks' are not coming as a big surprise. The wrestlil')g team, in Its first season since the 20's, is 6-1 and walking all over the competition. They were expected,to do well, but their near perfect record has shocked some people. The sports staff here at the STUTE, namely me,' Is not that'surprised, since we, I mean I, predicted that they would be very tough. The squash team Is In the middle of a building program, and Is not having an easy time of It. This was-also expected, as most coaches and knowledgeable sports people will tell you, It takes time to build a winner.

The major question mark is the basketball team. On the surface their last three games look like disasters. Vet When you look closer, you realize that there is no way the Ducks could hope to win against powerhouses like Kean, Kings Point, and Drew. Kean, for example, is ranked number 7 among the division three schools in the nation. The true test / of the ducks' ability and desire will be in the upcoming games against N.V. Poly, and N.J.I.i. ihis Is where the boys. can show whether they're going to pack it in or going to go out and finish the season with some pride. I personally belfeve that there is too much class on the squad to just sit back, and play out the year. The Ducks can finish with an over .500 record If they get together, and play the type of basketball they are capable of playing. With a little help from the fans, the 77-78 basketball season can IInish on a high note, instead of going flat.

The Intramural program, under Commissioner Rick Goblelle, has gotten into full swing. I'd like to wish all of the guys out for the program the best of luck. I've seen a couple of the games, and the comp,etltlon Is good and the gam\ls are of a pretty fair calibre.

The Baseball and Lacrosse teams have also started informal workouts. It's great to see the spirit beginning to grow in Stevens sports. If the fans can start to catch some of it, Tech may yet rise up and take it's place as an athletic powerhouse.
