Becoming An R.A. WOW THG ^

F; The Hard Way yoo KC€ P pirn* 111 <s MO KG
The differing opinions which have been voiced concerning!
•p
the Resident Assistant selection process all have validjj
premises and should all be addressed. In two separate letters
appearing last week and today in the "Your Opinion" section
of the Merciad, the selection/interview process is both
criticized and lauded.
It should first be pointed out that the actual selection
method contains three steps: 1) the student must evaluate him
or her self through a short essay stating why he or she would
like to become an R.A.; 2) three evaluation forms must be
completed by persons of the applicants' choice concerning the
lifestyle, maturity, and responsibility-level of the applicant;
and 3) an interview process takes place with the director of
housing and the senior R.A.'s featuring the role-playing of
1
actual situations which might occur in a dorm setting."
The first letter to the editor stated that part three of the
selection method is belittling, causing embarrassment of the
applicant in front of his or her peers.
The second letter addressed t he practical reasons for such a
stringent interview and jrole-playing session. And those
arguments make a great deal of sense. If the R.A.-to-be can-
not handle problemsjarising in an interview, how canThe or
she successfully control a similar, situation .in real-life? ..
Yes, the process may seem humiliating - but it is better that
the initial humiliation be done behind closed doors and not in
the presence of students who are supposed to respect the R.A.
and count on him or her for guidance. |f £
The campus living facet of college life is one of the most
vital experiences molding-students. For freshmen^ especially,
the R.A. plays a large part in making that first year away

Karate Club j ;
Develops Character
By John Lichcz
and Tim Tomczak*
The members of the karate club
here on campus are not taught to
jump, spin or slash. Their "sensi"
("teacher" in Japanese) tells them
to "keep back leg straight; front
knee over toes and rotate the
hips." After correcting their
stances, they confirm their
readiness by shouting a resoun-
ding " O S U " (pronounced
"oss"). Subjecting themselves to
strict 'mental and physical
discipline, they pursue narrow
goals: making a stronger punch, a
stronger kick and, perhaps a not-
so-narrow goal psychologically,
which is to make themselves better
persons through this training.
Pop culture has at times
distorted the true meaning of
karate. The objective of karate
training is not to break boards or
jaws, fin its true sense, it is a
method utilized to develop
character. *
For the club members, the com-
pletion of each3 training session
results in a sense of accomplish-
ment and self-worth. Spiritual,
mental and physical capabilities
are developed through training.
What is taught is then applied by
the practitioner to deal with the
problems of everyday life, and to
contribute to Society in a positive
Tim Tomczak
manner.
This is the essence of what the
sensi means when he says,
"Karate is not only dojo train-
ing" (dojo in Japanese means
gymnasium). The core of these
principles ? is that karate is
"budo". Its purpose'is;to build
and strengthen character in
humans and to help them avoid
conflicts. f $5?

tunity to ^supplement their

the fgames have been postponed
last week due to poor weather
conditions. ~
The Blue and Green did manage
to play a double-header against
Division} I Robert Morris. The
Lady Lakers combined with a one
two punch both on offense and
defense that gave them the 10-0
and 4-0 victories.
In the first game, Cissy Butler
provided the power on the mound
throwing a two hit shutout with
Annie Burbules lacing three out of
four hits i'for the 'Hurst.
Sophomore Sherry Putman added
a double in the winning effort.
Mary Fatigati also added two hits.
Laura Ames received the win in
the second game giving up only
two hits for the Blue and Green.
The 'Hurst defense came up with
outstanding defensive plays by
centerfielder Candy Hoover and
first baseman Lis Jacobitz.
The Lady Lakers now stand at
6-2-1 on the season.
