may revisionsMSG to conduct surveyPresently, the college operates on atrimester basis, however, if feasi-ble,the college may alter the calendarto semesters.Approximately two semesters, con-sisting of five classes, totalling thirtycredits would validate a possible newcalendar.Before a decision is made regardinga calendar change ? academic DeanDavid Palmer said, "there is a lot of

We don't want to be snow-ed under," Songer said.The MSG President said he does notwant this to be a sample survey, ratherhe is optimistic about obtaining thefeelings of all full time students.Songer believes the results^ofsurvey will bring some weight to thematter."We are people paying the tuition, Ihope we would have input into theca lendar they choose , " Songercommented.Palmer assures the issue is still inits beginning stage s.} "We maydiscover it's not a good idea," he said.Recommendations will be \ heardfrom the Sejna.tekstudents aQdAfacimy.,however,?

Garvey.* IHowever, the first donations will bemade tonight at a cocktail party at Dr.Garvey's house. | I *,At this time, 28 volunteers represen-ting the administration,! faculty andstaff will make contributions towardthe four million dollar goal.The campaign will kick-off internally.Donations will be sought from the col-lege personnel and the MercyhurstStudent Government. * ?"We have to believe in our owncause before we seek donations fromthe public," Garvey said.

W T * ^ P -Coordinating the calendar with otherarea colleges would be beneficial toMercyhurst students who attend VillaMaria College.*Many of the nursing majors havecon flicting schedules due to the dif-ferences in calendars and therefore arenot able to coordinate .their breaks.

Overall, ther fund drive is seekingfour million dollars within a three yearperiod. f i In addition, another two milliondollars is being soughmor the con-struction of a new student union,however, this Is not incorporatedwithin the goals of the drive/Dr. Garvey said, that money will ber a i se d a f t e r t h e t h r e e wearperiod."Proper equipment and booksall comes first." I fTwo of the four million dollars col-lected will be used for financial aid,the president said. ."We intend to ease the financialf l ight," he said. "We do not want tomake it a rich kid's school."The other two million dollars will beused to purchase new computers forinstruction, more books for the libraryand new equipment for various depart-ments, and expand Zurn Hall. iRennovations for Zurn Recital Hallinclude adding 250 more seat to theauditorium and enlarging the stage.Upon comp letion, the Recital Hall willaccomodate 500 people for a dance ortheatre performance.. By January, it is expected twomillion dollars will be in Ithre hands ofthe college. r iGarvey said, "if this goal is not met,we will have to reassess our needs."

More than just a desk job

Sister Juliana, Baldwin Desk Receptionistby Laura Ruby.Of all the occupations in ex-sistence, some are definitelymore glamorous than others.However, some of the lessglamorous jobs are those ofthe most importance.Here at 4Mercyhurst, thereare two people that hold suchpositions: S enior Desk Recep-tionis t's, Virginia Hershiser atMcAuley Dorm, and SisterJuliana Stora at Baldwin Dorm.Although their occupationsmay be classified as simply"desk Jobs," they carry muchrank. ^A m o n g t h e i r d u t i e sare;answering incoming calls,paging students, reportingrepairs, taking care of keys,filing lost and found objects,and the list never ends.Without all the little things

they take care of, dorm lifewould be a big mess.Sister Juliana began work-ing at Baldwin desk in 1970.She worked for MercyhurstCollege long before this. Shestated that she liked her job"very, very mu ch" and that thegirl's are "a nice bunch ofkids." i

Muslc -The D'Angelo* School ofMusic will be sponsoring "TheAmes Quartet" on October 22at 8 p.m. in, St. Mark'sAudito rium. Open to all. Ad-mission free. I tPeace Corps -On November 1, represen-tatives of the Peace Corps willbe on campus to give informa-tion to prospective volunteers.They will be at the placementoffice from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.Students unable to ' see arecruiter during this day callthe Philadelphia area office at

Sister Juliana also said thatshe has very little problemswith the girlsJShe sees verylittle difference between thepast years and the present.She said "the girls < havealways been very helpful andvolunteer their services all thet ime." I * ; W; ?mThings at McAuley are verysimilar. Virginia Hershiser, or"Ginny" as she prefers to becal led, has been working atMcAuley desk for 13 years.She also enjoys her workalot. She stated thet she hasno big problems with thestude nts. She said her biggest

upset has been students los-ing their keys. "The keys," shesaid, "seem to jump out ofeveryone's hands."iCompared with the pastyears, Hershiser feels that thisyear's students are a morerefined group." She said "lastyear's students were? good,but this year's are better." Shefeels they are more mannered.One of the aspects bothSister Juliana and Hershiserhave in Jcommon is that theyboth know just about everyonein the dorms by name.Sister said that she was stillworking on a few names andfaces but most of the girls arefamiliar. This allows both ofthem to relate to the studentson a personal basis. "?Both McAuley and Baldwindesks are i well organizedthanks to our superior deskreception ists. Whenever a dor-matory problem arises, onecan always count on them forassistance. But remember,ther jobs get hectic too.So the next time you passthe front desk, make yourselfknown to -them. A; smile, a"hel lo ," or a simple nod willdo. It can turn their occupa-tions into "more than just adesk job. " I I m i i
