Number of Empty Beds Increases Here

by Diana M. Cyganovich

‘As of September 30, 1972, the
State University of New York at
Albany houses: 489 empty beds.
This total given by Mr. Garry
Petre, Associate Director of Res-
idence, does not include Mo-
hawk Tower. Why the number
of vacant beds? Where are they
situated?

At this time, these questions
are a little difficult to answer. A
survey is being taken; hopefully,
in a few weeks the precise an-
awers will be known. But educa:
ted estimates can be given at the
present time.

All the quads are struck with
this problem, each of them has a
number of empty rooms, ‘This
does not include the part of
Fulton Hall given up to offices;
only residence rooms which are
standing idle are included,

‘A number of reasons are given.
As in uny other year, a number
of freshmen decided not to
come, According to Mr Petre
this total is approximately 150
students most freshmen
live on campus. this number
makes up for about one-third of
the resident students for whom.

University, Another nineteen did

not show at the residence halls.
‘These last few are still enrolled
in the University, but have
decided to live elsewhere.

The actual rate of commuters
is not known to the housing
office; neither is the exact
amount of off-campus residents.
It is speculated that more stu-
dents may be married, Since
there are no facilities for married
students on campus, they must
live elsewhere. Becarse of eco-
nomic problems, students may
be transferring (0 schools near
home and are commuting, ‘This
can explain part of the reason
for vacant rooms, Some of the
funding for students came in late
this year which may have kept
people from going to Albany

Also on the economic side of
the picture is the fact that some
apartments are cheaper th
campus living. But this depends
upon the quality of apartment

amount of empty rooms.

‘This problem of vacant beds is
not one of Albany alone; a

number of the State schools are
having similar problems. At the
present time, there is much re-
search going on in this area.
Until the results are analyzed, no
more dorms will be constructed

Sirotkin Talks Tenure With Council

Therefore, this will probably not by the State University system.

Aiwa
tlt

by Ellyn Sternberger

Vice-President Philip Sirotkin was the invited guest at last week's Central Council
meeting. The topic was tenure.

Sirotkin informed the Council members that SUNYA presently has about 60% of its
instructional faculty tenured, The norm for Universities and four year colleges is in the
50%-60% range. It was his feeling that no more than 50%-60% should be tenured. He
»xplained that with a “no-growth" budget you can’t add new faculty and programs
without hurting existing programs

Sirotkin proceeded to review the tenure procedure, Each individual case is evaluated on
the criteria of teaching effectiveness, scholarly ability, University-Community service,
professional growth and development, and research. The case goes through several steps in
the department before it goes to a student-faculty committee in the college.

From there it goes to the University Council on Promotions. The Council makes its
recommendation to the President of the University. Sirotkin emphasized the point that
each decision along the way is simply an advisory recommendation. The President makes
the final decision, but usually the University Council's decision is accepted,

The decision goes from the President's office to the Chancellor and the Board of
Trustees who confer the actual tenure. Sirotkin said that the criteria of teaching
effectiveness is determined in part by student evaluation. One of the weaknesses of this is
no uniform method of evaluation. Each department has its own system, An effort was

made to standardize this across departments, but it didn’t succeed.

Concerning student input on tenure, Sirotkin was careful to express the view that
“Teaching effectiveness is not synonymous with popularity.’” When specific cases of
popular instructors not being granted tenure were cited and questioned, he said that for
each popular individual for whom students signed petitions there were also students who

Departmental Status by End of Next Semester;
Too Few Puerto Rican Professionals Employed Here

by John Fairhall

Born in the aftermath of a tumultuous confrontation between Puerto Rican students
and administrators, the Puerto Rican studies program is expanding towards departmental
status. This event, expected about April by the interim director of the program, Antonio
Perez, will not likely attract the attention and hostility that the early cries for a program
met with in 1971

Perez told this reporter that Moyer Hunsberger, dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences, authorized him to form a committee to develop the program into a department
Perez is also working in a committee searching for a full-time director for the program

What follows is a summary of the answers given by Perea to questions about the
program and his role in it

Why do Puerto Rican students need a Puerto Rican studies program (department)?

Perez highlighted the needs of students who want a department formed soon so that
they may complete a major, not presently offered. He estimates that about 30 students
are prepared and waiting for the opportunity to pursue a major

Perez. also spoke of Puerto Rican students seeking something they can relate to in the
university. Puerto Rican students “realized there was nothing in the university ey could
claim as thei own." They want “to find out more about themselves in a university setting

In any setting they need something they can indentify with.” Perez noted that the
gowth of the Afro-American studies department encouraged Puerto Rican students.

How van a department be justified for so few students?

Perez replied that the “number of (Puerto Rica) students is constantly growing.”
About 300 Puerto Rican students attend SUNYA now, and according toa formula used
by the Educational Opportunity Program, about one third of the freshman students
accepted through the EOP must be Spanish surnamed, guaranteeing continuing admission
of some Puerto Ricans into SUNYA

He emphasized that the program is for “the whole community.” Despite the fact that
the Puerto Rican studies program has not publicized itself well, increasing numbers of
non-Puerto Ricans are taking courses in it. ‘I don't expect only Puerto Rican students
will minor and major in Puerto Rican studies,"’ Rerez said.

The importance of Puerto Ricans as a growing minority in New York State was also
cited. Puerto Ricans comprise one-sixteenth of the total state population, Perez stated.

Antonio Perez, Interim Director of the Puerto Rican
Studies Program maintains “great faith that the program
will be a department by the end of the semester.”

Puerto Rican Studies Show Progressive Trend

continued from page one

What does the program look
like now?

Six courses are being taught
this semester in the Puerto Rican
studies program and nine more
are planned for the spring, ac-
cording to Perez. The courses are
taught by one full-time member
of the program, Perez, and two
part-time teachers. About 150
students are currently enrolled
in the courses.

What was your role in getting
the Puerto Rican studies pro:
gram going here?

‘The first meeting for develo-
ping a program was held inate
1969, Perez said. The idea was
basically student initiated; Perez
claimed he acted more as a
coordinator than an initiator. A
‘comprehensive paper outlining a
Puerto Rican studies pro
was prepared by May, 1971
‘This prospectus emphasized a

“Someone with a Pir@ in
humanities or the social scien-
ces." That someone should have
had some involvement or in-
terest in Puerto Rican studies in
the past, and “preferably,”
though not necessarily, will be
Puerto Rican, Perez said.

He hopes that by the end of
January a person will be selec:
ted, though the job does not
begin until September. Whoever
is hired will also teach

What will you do when a direc-
tor is hired?

Perez, once an EOP counselor
and now working to get his
Doctor of Education in coun
seling and personnel services,
will probably leave the program
after next semester. He said of
his role in the program: “I've
just been filling a vacuum at this

int,” The program, he said, is

“not my area of specialty.”

What does the future hold for
Puerto Rican studies at SUNYA?

Perex maintained great faith
that the program will be a de-
partment by the end of next
semester. “We're getting full
cooperation from the dean’s
office” toward getting full-time
people to fill the gap for next
year, Perez held that the lack of

Perez, who was friendly and
latked freely, suggested that
campus-wide reaction to the pro-
gram has calmed down since its
fiery beginning. He's right. Atti
tudes of tolerance or indiff-

phere here toward the program.
‘And this is a hopeful sign. It
wasn't too many years ago that

sponsive to all the people of this

which documented what every-
one already knew, that minority
groups and women, too, were
employed in significant
numbers here. If fact, for along
time e black face was a rare sight
in both the classroom snd the
administration building.

‘These steps represent signifi-
cant progress towards ending dis-
crimination in education here,
The fact that it took so long to
take these measures tarnishes the
university image, held by some,
of always being well in the fore-
front of social progress. But,
hopefully, the progress that hus
been the result of so many peo-
ple bashing their heads against o
slow yielding bureaucracy, will
be maintained by that same
bureaucracy. For now that these
programs are moving forward
within the SUNYA institution, it
would probably be as hard or
harder to remove them as it was
to get them in,

Dear Mr. Locker:

to provide mailing of refunds to anyone who loses money in a

her to the garage of my choice. (1 asked for Lou's

there wasn't one closer I preferred, so I settled for

by Bill Heller

‘Albany's depth and Byron Mil-
ler’s hot hand were the key
factors in the Great Danes 66-51
opening win over tough Stony
Brook Friday night. Miller hit
ten for fifteen and his twenty
points were good for game
honors. The depth came in the
form of Harry Johnson, who got
to play early and often with
Werner Kollin out, Harry took «
while to warm up, but scored
ten of his twelve points in the
second half, when the Danes
blew the game open.

With Bob Rossi and Reggie
Smith ice cold, and John Qua-
trocehi not shooting (two for
five in the whole game), Doc
Sauers needed the offensive
punch from somewhere. He
found it in Miller and Johnson,
the latter seeming to improve
every time he plays.

Starting quickly, the Danes
raced to a 6-0 lead, broke a
12-12 tie with an 8-1 spurt, and
were never headed after that.
Reggie Smith held flashy Art
King to five in the first half, as
Stony Brook fell behind 32-24.
After that, the best Stony Brook
could do was put on a helluva
halftime show with the Smith:
town Indiunettes, a group of
twenty-five precision kicking
lovelies who did their thing to
rock music. Outseoring the Indi-
fans 14-3 to start the second half
Albany never led by less than
ten for the final twelve minute

‘The Great Danes did look a
little shabby in the opening min:
Utes, but they then settled down
to play a disciplined defense,
especially cutting off Stony

Brook’s shuffle play, one de:
signed to give the talented King
his favorite short jumper. King
inished with just sixteen, the
only Indian in double figures.
‘Three things prevented the
Danes from winning really big.
To begin with, the three Albany
guards, Rossi, Troch, and
Welchons, produced a meager
fourteen points, two in the sec-
ond half, Afterwards, Troch ex-
plained that his job for this game
was simply to bring the ball

Dave Welchons played an
effective steady game, and

making, great defense, and one

Last Event Win Lifts Aquamen to Victory

by Nathan Salant

‘The Albany swimming team
opened their season on a very
positive note this past Saturday,
as the Great Danes came from
behind to surprise Plattsburgh,
58-54. The meet came down to
the last event, with Albany trail-
ing 54-51, and Plattsburgh heavi-
ly favored to take the 400 yard
freestyle relay, but the Danes
pulled it out — thanks to the
heroics of Ken Weber and Jaik
Schubert.

‘The meet opened with Albany
winning the 400 yard medley
relay, as Hart, Puretz, Gersten-
haber, and Van Ryn combined
to give the Danes an early lead.
‘The lead did not last, as Plutts
burgh took the next 4 events the
1000, 200, and 50 yard free
styles, and the 200 yard indi
vidual medley. However, Albany
took what later proved to be
several key runner-up spots,
picking up 3 points per event for
second place finishes in all four
events, and one point for third
place in the latter two.

Next, Albany closed the gap,

thanks to some fancy diving by
the highly regarded newcomer
Bob Canter, who broke the varsi-
ty record with 146,90 point

the 1 meter required diving
event, and a Gerstenhaber vie
tory in the 200 yard butterfly
with Schubert placing third.

The next few events saw the
lead see-saw back and forth
Plattsburgh moved ahe
win in the 100 yard free-style,
with Albany's Staples placing
third for one point. Albany
gained ground minutes later,
when Hart broke all pr
SUNYA records with a 2:14.6
mark in the 200 y
stroke, and Eson p
The Danes continued to battle
back, as Van Ryn won the 500

SAT Prep Course Under Fire

Compiled from stories

by Ian C. DeWaal

(CPS) — Students in the
Buffalo, Boston, and New York
City areas who had taken the
Law School Admission Test
(LSAT) preparatory course, have
reported that practice questions
given in the course appeared in
part or verbatim on the July 29
and October 21 LSAT exams.

The students had all attended
the Stanley H, Kaplan Educa-
tional Center Ltd, LSAT pre-
paration course; an independent
educational service headquar-
tered in Brooklyn, New York,
with nine other centers across
the country.

‘The LSAT exam was explained
by Anthony Glocklar, LSAT
program director, as being de-
signed “to test the skills and
abilities required of a good law
student,” The test is admini-
stered by the Educational Test-
ing Service, which disavows any
connection with courses or
bouks designed to improve test
scores.

Students who took the July 29
and October 21 exams reported
that reading passages, graphs and
parts of the Cases and Principles
section of the LSAT were dis
tributed in class in the Kaplan
course.

People who took the course
were reported by one student as
“faughing through the test,”
having been familiar with "50%
of the material,” Other students

Grass Goes Bi

by Buddy Nevins
Alternative Features Service

Hollywood, Florida ~ A recent
outbreak of murders in the drug
underworld has vividly support-
ed police claims that the nation’s
marijuana trade is fast falling
into the hands of hoodiums.

Marijuana is now a multi-
billion dollar business, involving
more money than all but the
largest industrial combines, and
it is only natural that so much
tax-free cash attracts organized
crime,

The large scale marijuana deal-
er in the past was generally a
college or graduate student with
no criminal background, These
amateurs made money supplying
their local campuses with a faw
kilos of the illegal weed smug-
gied in from South-of-the-
Border,

But with the explosion of
marijuana use the small time
smuggler is boing forced out of
the market by giant criminal
organizations. Not only do these
now breed of smugglers have vast
sums of money to invest, but
many of the principals involved,
like prohibition barons of old,
think nothing ot shooting down
rival dealers.

"With so much money in-
volved in pot,” said a U.S. Cus-
toms official, “there are bound
to be casualties.”

South Florida, whore a large
proportion of the nation’s gra

previously enrolled in the course
could not attest to the 50%
figure, but contended that there
was some duplication.

Students who took the course
are being asked to sign affidavits
about the similarities between
questions on the actual test, and
on practice tests given in class,

If sufficient evidence can be
obtained, the ETS would be able
to obtain a temporary injunction
against Kaplan and therefore be
allowed to use discovery pro:
ceedings {0 subpoena Kaplan's
course materials and make an
informed decision as to whether
test materials have been dupli
cated.

One affidavit states a conver-

tion was overheard before the
July 20 LSAT between a student
enrolled in the Kaplan course
and an instructor at the Center,
during which the instructor “in:
formed him (the student) that if
he could remember any ques-
tions on the LSAT and report
back to Kaplan, he would be
reimbursed.” The affadavit con
tinues that the student said, “f

think he mentioned $5."
Another affidavit realtests to
the similarities between the
course material and the test, and
their effect on the student's
success with the test, The stu
dent's affidavit states,"Seeing
the two paragraphs before
made it a whole lot easier, The
graph was the hurdest one on the
really

lest, seeing it before

supply enters the country, has
seen some “pretty tough cus
tomers” take over the business,
according to an area police
spokesman. Broward County
(Fort Lauderdale) Sheriff Ed
Stack, whose jurisdiction covers
acres of swamp land favored by
smugglers for airplane drops, said
that his deputies have noted an
upswing in the number of shot
guns, carbines, machineguns and
large caliber revolvers taken
from drug distribution suspects

In early fall, Stack said, his
deputies raided a house near the
edge of the Everglades where
they found more than 1,000
pounds of freshly cut marijuana
recently smuggled into the area
and bound for the Deep South
and Midwest. As they attempted
to rush the front door, the
Sheriff said, a slight, 25-year-old
girl from South Carolina opened
up on them with a .30 caliber
carbine

“Much to our distress,"" Sher
iff Stack said, “we have found
‘grass pushers inevitably armed to
the teeth with weapons we iden
tify with organized crime.”

‘A major portion of the mari
juana traffic in the Eastern half
of the United States is now
attributed to a group of felons
with loose connections to orga
nized crime, The Dixie Mafia, as
police call them, smuggle grass
through South Florida and dis-
tribute it as far north as New

helped.”

Students have reported that
the sections of the LSAT they
found duplicated in the Kaplan
course were distributed only in
class and collected before each
section was over. The disputed
passages did not appear in the
take-home problems, according
to many students who took the
course.

When asked about the matter,
Kaplan denied ever having seen
an actual copy of the LSAT
“People have offered to bring
me back a copy of the exam. |
told them to disappear the other
way

Stating he didn't use the same
questions as the LSAT, Kaplan
continued, “What happens is
that so many people s
like if 1 have somethir
Shakespeare and the
something on Shakespeare, right
away (people think its) the same
paragraph, the same exam, wh
it really isn’t

Kaplan said ETS. tha
complained to him. “I don’t see

any reason why they should," he
explained, “I they have given
topic that appears again and
again, it simply means that the
ETS, the LSAT, has given the
same topic again. There is no
reason why they can't change

York City

Miami police contend the
group's marijuana activities were
responsible for the recent execu:
tion-style murder of a former
organization member, ex-convict
Jackson Smith. Two teenage
companions who happened to be
accompanying Smith and who
were the daughters of a political
ly prominent Louisiana family
were also slain.

Miami Police Department
homicide Sgt. Mike Gonzalez re:
ported that the shootings were
done by “professional mob hit
men” underscoring the ominous
new trends in the marijuana
racket

The violence connected with
the mob takeover of the marijua
na business is not peculiar to
South Florida. A few weeks ago
another alleged member of the
Dixie Mafia, Charles Christian,
surrendered to police in Savan
nah, Ga., becuase he claimed he
was marked for death by gang
land executioners

A mustachioed young man
identified with the marijuana
trade in New York City was
found decapitated in Brooklyn.
His murder was tied in with
territorial disputes among the
yrass dealers of the city only
after his head was found in @
garbage pail near Fifth Avenue.

In Detroit and Chicago police
have seen a surge in violence
connected with marijuana deal

after a test and tell him topics
that were on the test. Then his
research team prepares a para-
graph on the same topic. “This
isn’t just us. People all over the
place are remembering the ques-
tions that appear again and
again. There is nothing wrong
with going over (opics of past
tests.”

Glocklar explained that about
“one-eighth of the questions” on
the LSAT are new items being
tested for use on future exams.
The rest of the questions have
been used on previous exams
either as experimental items or
as actual test questions. “Ques:
tions are reviewed periodically”
stated Glocklar. “Those no
longer deemed relevant are re
tired and copies of old tests are
destroyed.”

Willian Hall, chairman of the
Legal Affairs Committee of the
Law School Admissions Council
the organization — representing
schools who use the LSAT for
admissions, reacted to the dis
covery of similarities between
the course and the LSAT by
saying “This is apparently the

Some students who took the
Kaplan course have urged that
information regarding the dupli-
cation of questions on the LSAT
not be made public for fear of
damaging their chances of ad-
mission to law school.

John Leach, chairman of the
Committee of Character and

for the 8th Judicial district in

them, “We are certainly not

Commission Faults SUNY Construction

by Al Senia
Capitol Correspondent

A state legislative commission
has taken a long, hard look at
‘campus construction throughout
the State University system and
issued a report giving the State
University Construction Fund
(SUCP) what might best be des-
cribed as mixed ratings.

‘The construction fund oversees
Virtually all SUNY construction.

While lauding the fund for

successfully providing SUNY
with the necessary academic
space in a period of intense
growth, the lengthy report, a
product of the State Legislative
Commission on Expenditure
Review, levels a number of criti-
cisms at the construction
agency.

‘Among the findings of the
report:

96% of the projects surveyed
were completed behind sche:
dule.

inal costs of the projects

exceeded original budget re-
quests in over 60% of the cases,

--- widespread structural defi
ciencies exist in many newly-
constructed buildings.

-The Construction Fund has
been “generous” in its payments
to architects, many of whom are
responsible for the structural
problems,

~~Aesthetics have often been
placed above practical considera
tions when planning architec-
tural design, often to the detri-
ment of students and faculty

Albany Campus Deemed
Acoustical Problems

‘The report of the Legislative
Commission on Expenditure
Review seemed to contradict the
popular notion that Albany
State is a non-functional, un-
comfortable architectural di-

the report con:
cluded that most students and
faculty interviewed were satis
fied with the design of the physi
cal campus and the classrooms--
or at least as satisfied as their
peers on other SUNY campuses.

Major acoustical shortcomings
were uncovered, however, and
pollution and ventilation pro-
blems on the SUNYA campus
also received some attention in
the lengthy report.

‘To better acoustics, structural
repairs had to be made on 19
{urge classrooms, 60 medium size
classrooms and 13. seminar
rooms here at a cost of
$107,000. ‘The report noted that
in many cases, the cost of
making such repairs was borne
by the operating budget of the
individual campus involved,

er than by the architect,
SUCF, or SUNY. But it men:
tioned no specifies in the Albany

Not suprisingly, half of the
students questioned in the atti

Close to 70% of the partis
faculty agreed with the student
assessment
here were a number of othe

surveys that bore surprises for
those who have had daily con:
tact with Edward Durell Stone's
White Wonder.

64% of the students polled
gave the physical design of the
campus an “affirmative” rating,
New Paltz, in comparison scored
81% and’ Binghamton scored
lowest with 58%.

‘Anonymous student com
ments were printed in the report
and they ran the gamut from
deep satisfaction to feelings of
frustration and annoyancs

“I have attended a total of
four different colleges in this
state and others," one student
observed. “I would have to say
that this is the best campus
physically that I have ever been
to. Mr. Stone's planning and
architecture are both functional
and beautiful, something rare on
college campuses today.”

But another student com
plained that “everything has
been planned, there is no room
left for randomness....This cam
pus looks like a world’s fair or a
tigantic radiator."

Some students found the Al

bany campus “organized,”
“majestic” or “intriguing” while
others labeled architect Stone's
work “artificial” “cold” and
“impersonal.”

One student complained that
they symmetryed beauty and
relaxation rather then enhanced
them. “We need more trees,
more plants, more green every:
where. It in much too stark
around here, Conerete doesn't

But the report noted that
favorable comments outpolled
unfavorable ones by better than
asix to one margin,

On other topics, eight out of
every ten students queried found
the Albany campus “functional”
but faculty members rated it

auditors and
SUNY officials were at odds in
their appraisals of the multi-
million dollar campus complex
at suburban Amherst, Investi-
gators complained of unreason-
ably high costs in planning and
design and laid the blame for
financial problems on the vacil-
lating and ambigious attitudes of
administr officials. SUNY
Construction
differed in their analys
Amherst project and disputed
the findings of the report.

Construction Delays

‘The auditors said that Constru-
ction Fund goals should be those
associated with any public
construction program: "High
quality facilities completed in
“timely manner” at “reasonable
cost,” It gave the construction
fund differing marks in achieving
each of the three eriteria

‘The report praised SUCF for
successfully constructing some
11,200 projects valued at over
two billion dollars in the rela
lively short span of ten years
Construction thus kept pace
with the rapid increase in SUNY
enrollment.

But praise was tempered with
the admonition that 47 of the
49 projects studied were
completed behind schedule.

More than a third of the projects
were two years

Delays were evident in all
phases of construction work, but
especially so in the planning and

design stage. The blame for
project delays was shared by a
variety of people and agencies:
SUNY, for changing the func-
tion or size of the buildings or
disapproving design plans; the
Construction Fund, for estima-
ting project costs that were
above budget allotments; and
the architects, for a generally
“poor performance.

Disputes between contractors
and architects further slowed
construction work, the report
said, and illustrated the weak-
nesses of the Construction Fund
in maintaining full controt over
the individual construction
projects.

‘The auditors chided SUCF for
the agencies’ loose controls and
they called the agency to exert
greater influence over individual
projects,

‘The Stony Brook Student
Union and the Fredonia Fine
Arts building were cited as the
most serious cases where are
tectural and contractual disputes
added to normal project delay!
The report noted that at
Fredonia the contractor dis-
puted “every decision the archi-
tect made."

Cost Overruns

‘The legislative report was also
critical of the Construction
Fund for allowing actual costs to
substantially differ from original
budget estimates. Thirty of the

ceeded initial budget requests,
