Cover Story
For LHU senior Tim Burdick,
writing has given him the
opportunity to express
himself and his inner-most
feelings After two international
experiences, he began
to open his heart through his
pen This edition of
Perspective focuses on
several individuals wh o
either have developed
careers from self exp ressi on
or who want to help others
learn to put forth their true
feelings Several of these
individuals spend their lives working toward their passions and have chosen
to step out of the realm of traditional occupations Tim hopes that graduate
school will catapult him onto a career in teaching in which he can continue
to grow in his own writing and help other students understand the value of
self expression
Education faculty sets Clinton County
technology record
Dr Gerald Cierpilowski, LHU chair,
department of elementary and secondary
education, offered a peak
at the classroom of the future as
he became the first teacher in
Clinton County to teach a class in
another state via the Internet.
Cierpilowskl established a connection
with Battleground Middle
School in Battleground, IN, and
together with his wife's aunt,
Caroline Sadeak, a holocaust survivor,
taught severa l middle school classes about the events surrounding her
Journey from a small farming village on the border of Poland to a work camp
in Siberia. The students had read the book, The Endless Steppe: Growing
Up in Siberia by Esther Rudomin Hautzig, and compared and contrasted the
author's experience with that of Mrs. Sadeak's life Chatting in "real time, "
students asked questions through the computer keyboard which were directly
sent to the screen in front of Dr. Cierpilowski and Mrs Sadeak. They in turn
responded immediately to the students' questions, many of which focu sed on
concern for family, possessions, safety, work and treatment. All students had
a terminal from which they viewed the conversation, and questions were
typed on the teacher's keyboard The class was part of Purdue University's
research project documenting survivors of the holocaust Purdue University
also provided the technological support to the Indiana Middle School.

Spring 1995
College days have traditionally been times for young adults to express
their feelings and their viewpoints in various ways. Through.out the
decades, the university has remained an outlet for developing self
expression. This issue of Perspective focuses on a form of expression ­
the outward showing of creativity.
We begin with a story on the nurturing of creativity in young
children through the use of science. LHU early childhood education
students are trained in techniques which enhance a child's ability to
creatively reason and solve problems. The magazine continues as we
look at some of the many expressions of creativity by faculty and
students at LHU. We are pleased to feature in this edition of the
alumni magazine two outstanding alumnae who have carved a niche
for themselves in their individual fields.

LHU students have many outlets to express their feelings. There
remains the Eagle Eye, the student-run newspaper, and an alternative
newspaper, The Talon. The radio station and television station,
Haven Scope, are alive and well and have good participation from
within the student body. In addition, the Crucible is a literary
creative publication in which students from all backgrounds share
their poetry, short stories and photographs, and the International
Review serves as an outlet for students expressing feelings about overseas
experiences and American lifestyles. With other such media for
the stud ents, LHU remains active in encouraging all students to
express themselves and to develop their own opinions and attitudes
in life.

Using science to deve lop a ch ildls curios ity
oday's children may be doing some pretty fun things in school. .. activities that Mom and
Dad may find to be a little out of the ordinary. Children under the age of eight may be
having so much fun cutting things out of paper, mixing odd solutions and counting in
strange ways that all they can talk about at day's end is the fun they that they had in
school. And Mom and Dad are worried-- their child is not memorizing facts or repeating lists or even sitting
quietly at a desk. They begin to wonder. .. what is really going on at my child's schoo!?!
"Children are innately curious people. They are curious in our closets and in our pots and pans. They find
presents we wrap and hide. They ask questions for which we have no answers," explains Dr. Susan Ashley,
associate professor of education.
Ashley is one of many educators throughout the country who wants
to work with that natural curiosity in children under the age of
eight. Concerned that the United States is los ing ground in sc ience
"If natural curiosity is not fostered, they will lose that capacity."
and math and in preparing children for the challenges of the subjects
in later grades, they see the value of introducing young children to a
non-discipline based science curriculum. Through experimentation,
children become familiar with causes and effects and build a base
line of knowledge to which they can refer as they learn theories and
concepts later in their schooling.
"Science is about asking excellent questions, and letting children enj oy discovering their own answers,"
A shley says. "At this age the teacher is not telling the child the facts about science, but rather, challenging
the students to construct their own questions and ideas. "
As children work with hands-on experimentation, they are building

and the symbolic representation of our language (i.e. reading
spontaneously but requires instruction, educators see the

a foundation that will not only
skills come naturally to a child,
and writing) does not occur
value of having students work
thoughts about the processes .
• ••

The dialogue and h ands-on association elicited in this form of
teaching ass ists educators in subjects like reading and socia l
studies. Although these studies are more didactic in nature,
the science learning experiences are grounded in the oral
modality and provide an important foundation for the language
development of children.
Curiosity must be developed in the primary grades for later use
in disciplined-based education at the intermediate and high
school levels. "If natural curiosity is not fostered, they will lose
that capacity. Curiosity is the most critical adult thinking
capacity and is valued." Ashley explains. "Using sc ience in
this way with young children ties in with the ability of the child to accept the challenge of a
problem and to creatively express him or herself."
Hands-on, child-centered ed ucation has a long history which can be traced back to such
theorists as Jean Piaget and Maria Montessorri. Because children are not memorizing
facts or learning in more "traditional" ways, a change in mind set needs to
occur for "developmentally-a ppropriate practice" to be accepted in primary
education. At Lock Haven University, students enrolled in the early
childhood education program are graduating with a so lid foundation in
this "new" way of helping children learn. With these additional skills,
LHU can provide these majors with a better capacity fo r working with
younger learners.
"You don't have to be a scientist to help children and to promote their
natural curios ity," explains A sh ley. "Many people, including parents and teache
rs, shy away from science because they feel it is not their strength. But that
is not necessary. All parents and teachers have the capacity to support
children's natural curi osity and prepare them for formal education
and adult life ."
Parents begin to wonder. ..

Often when LHU students venture to travel abroad they
undergo a metamorphosis in the way that they view life
Senior English major Tim Burdick not only changed his outlook,
but resurrected in him self a new spirit of understanding and a
quest for satisfying his inner soul after two international
experiences Tim has now brought that new openness to his
writing
Sharing Tim's love of the written word is another senior, so
unlike Tim that they truly demonstrate the beauty of diversity in
written expre ss ion Kevin Kovac, a journalism major, has
written about dirt track modified stock car racing for
several years Unlike his counterpart who finds tranquillity
in poetry and fiction writing, Kevin 's ski lls
have led him to an ever-changing, hectic life
iting their
own chapters
Kevin attended races since 12 years of age and in
his yo uth landed a writing position with the Area
Auto Racing News. Today his features span
several other racing publications and newspaper
sports sections He is so enthused about the sport, that
he timed his graduation date around ra cing season and potential
job availability in the field Although he never actually
stepped into a stock car for a serious race, his interest takes
him throughout northeastern United States and Canada .
He is the repeated winner of the Flemington (New
Jersey) Courier Times "Reporter of the Year," and the
Eastern Motor Sport Press Association Convention
Writing Award .
In an environment as competitive as racing, Kevin holds
intentions of co ntinuing his writing after he leaves LHU III
December 1995. With a portfolio crammed with clips
and an already-broad level of experience of reallife
racing coverage, he is more prepared than
many students to tackle this very difficult task
of "making it" in the sport. His established
contacts and reputation promise to open
doors that a man of his age would not
typically find available.
While he does not find his so lace on
the race track, Kevin's counterpart Tim
grew as a writer from exchanges in
Scotland and England He came to
LHU on a generous scholarship earned
through his 70-page autobiography. At
first, his enrollment in the Honors
Program
demanded
much of his
energy, and
his writing
was not as
strong. But
in his sophomore
year he
traveled to
Scotland.
When he
returned, he
"exploded" as
he moved from a
"cl iche" style to a
more polished presentation.
He kept journals of his experiences
and used long stints on tra ins as time to
write short stories and poetry.
At times Tim feels like som ething of an outcast and believes his
friends would describe him as "eccentric ." His style is certainly
unique and has earned him attention at LHU. As an editor of
the University literary magazine, The Crucible, he has attracted
an audience of students, faculty and staff who are intrigued
by his use of words and self expression. Last year he earned
the "Outstanding English Major" award, and has had a play
produced on campus His experiences abroad showed him that
life offers so much. "The sun never sets on my friends ," he
explains as he talks about the diversity of his friendships
gained over the years.
After May graduation, Tim will continue his path of
growth as he continues his work in graduate school
"I have a true love of words and the power of
images," he says "I had a fresh start here (LHU), and
find that this has been a good environment for meno
inhibiting factors"
While worlds apart in interests and style
of writing, both Tim and Kevin express
themselve s and their interests and values
in their art. Both have a mature
outlook on the future and have
definitive plans to make their individual
styles work for them.
Neither sees this expression as a
hobby or as a passing IIlterest
Both feel that their writing is an
integral part of their lives and an
aspect in which the y will continue
to grow

1931 Praeco
In 1931, The Lock Haven State Teachers College boasted of the
accompl ishments of its female students in particular. While the
candids reflected the silliness of boys dressed as flappers and
girls smil ing coyly fo r the ca me ra, this photo of the championship
baseball team reflects the strength of fema le participation As
the female students were being introduced to spring sports, the
yea rbook points out that "previous to the (championship) tournament,
the girls received instruction on the technique of baseball in
gym classes. " In 1931, LHSTC women's athleti cs consisted of
field hockey, basketball, volleyball, baseba ll , track, tennis and
saddle club.
Just as every bell rings atone
unique to itself, so does the
personality of
every student ring a distinct and individual note
throughout the world.
The campus world is strange and
unfamWar at first,
aworld of doubt and challenge,
lonliness and
understanding, and above all,
aworld of hope for the
fUlnllment of dreams in a
better future. nurtured and

The Class of '46 was very proud of its returning
soldiers. A specia l page dedicated to "Ex-G I's"
was captioned, "They came back to graduateand
were late but welc ome additions to the class
of '46." These students ret urned with a new
maturity and sense of their world Pictured here is
Cla ir Klinger whose phi losophy was "Nothing but
himself can be his parallel" Past and future editions
of Praeco featured pride in those stu dents
who chose to fight for their country
1968 Praeco
The fun of the ' 60s was a highlight in 1968 The
"Ugly Leg Contest" attracted nine men search

While Praeco is no longer published, keeping track of student
trends and expression remains an important part of campus
life. Today' s stud en t is thoughtful about the history of our
past. The student body is much more diverse than ever before
as non-traditional students add a mature dimension to the
classroom The extensive international exchange program
brings students from around the world into the cla ssroom to
share lea rning experi ences Express ion through fashion sometimes
mirrors the images of the 1970s. The baseball cap is an
integ ral part of daily wear as are swea tshirts and t-shirts with
explicit messages about who the person proposes to be.

LHU slates summer camp schedule
Lock Haven University has long been known as one of central Pennsylvania's
premier summer sport camp sites. Throughout the department of athletic's long
history, camps in wrestling, soccer and basketball have drawn thousands of
young people to LHU's campus.
Last year alone, nearly 3,500 campers were part of a session of one sort here at
The Haven. With the addition of the University Foundation Fields, new artificial
surface and an "Olympic" style eight lane track at Hubert Jack Stadium (both
slated to be finished during this upcoming summer), and a Camps Director, Lock
Haven University is making great strides at strengthening its position as one of
Pennsylvania's fine st summer camp facilities.
While traditionally strong camps in wrestling, socce r, football and basketball continue
to be the main focus of the entire program, nearly every athletic program at
the University offers a corollary camp run by its head coach. As of this date, 11
sport camps are slated to be run by LHU 's outstanding coaching staff. In addition
to that, camps in theatre (in conjunction with the Millbrook Playhouse ), dance
(run by the Michael Mao Dance Company), and a recreational sports day camp
are also scheduled.
The list of camps offered at Lock Haven University is growing every day. Each
coach is the director of his or her own camp while the University's Director of
Camps oversees the entire camp picture. The 1995 summer camp program
Includes va rious camps in baseball, boy's basketball, girl's basketball, field hockey,
football, boy's soccer, girl's soccer, softbal l, girl's swimming, girl's volleyball,
wrestling, dance, theatre, and recreational sports. The camps are designed for
boys and girls of all ages

ADVANCEMENT
Capital
Campaign
Update
125 ANNIVERSARY
CAMPAIGN
Through an overwhelming show of support. Lock Haven University has received more than $2.2 mi llion in gifts and pledges toward its
Capital Campaign goal of $2.5 million.
Substanti al contributions from alumni, parents, friends, corporate partnerships and internal support has resu lted in the complete funding
of severa l of the Campaign's projects including Jack Stadium, scholarships and property acquisition An add iti onal $180,000 has
been received as undesignated contributions which may be used for any of the seven proJects.
The recent alumni and parent solicitation program bro ught a commitment of more than $400,000 to the Campaign projects At this time
efforts continue to take place as volunteer leaders Dr. Mickey Greenberg, a Lock Haven physician, and Ralph Lovette, former
Hammermill plant manager, take the reigns of the pro fessional and corporate fundraising effort. The alumni phase of the Campaign
was led by Ron Jury, Class of '72
One of the accompl ishments of the
Campaign has been the securing of the
funding for Jack Stadium which will
upgrade the facility to an artificial turf,
eight-lane track and field event areas.
The Stadium will now accommodate a
growing number of intercollegiate and
intramural sports as well as local high
school track. Jack Stadium is one of
two Shared-Funded Capital Projects
addressed in the Capital Campaign To
date, although the Shared Funded
Capital Projects obligation has been
met, the Campaign still seeks an addi ­
tional $600,000 for Ulmer Hall
For more information on the progress
made in the Campaign or on ways to
contribute, contact the Advancement
Division at (717) 893-2293.
Alumna1s generosity assists Capital Campaign
Caroline Cathcart Alleman, '29, has established a charitable gift annuity with the University which will assist in LHU's scholarship
efforts. Th ro ugh the annuity, she will receive an annual percentage of her contribution in Quarterly payments until her death The
remainder of the contribution will be used to fund th e Caroline Cathcart Al leman Scholarship which wil l be activated upon her death
Carol ine chose this form of giving to her alma mater because it provided income to her in her lifetime and then will later assist students 1 ~
in need. For mo re information on charitable gift annuities, contact the LHU Advancement Division at (717) 893-2293.

Under the leadership of LHU Student Cooperative Council President Jason Cristofaro, a group of concerned
students have formed a committee to examine the issues students face in leasing agreements. The "Rental
Agreements Committee" is designing a plan of action which will complement off-campus student programs
Looking at both the condition of facilities in which students live as well as the legal concerns of leasing agreements,
the committee is designing a student pamphlet which will explain their rights and responsibilities in a
rental situation. Working in conjunction with Lock Haven City officials, the students are planning to eventually
have lawyers come to
campus to address specific
student concerns in
this area. They are also
hoping to bring landlords
to campus for discussion
groups. Their goal is to
provide assistance this
semester for students
searching for housing
