cyhurst's student newspaper, will
become "the responsibility of the

and a learning tool therein, ac-
cording to Dr. David Palmer,
Academic Dean of -Mercyhurst
College. i f that's* what we'd hope to so much confidence in me,"
Mr. Richard J. Garcia, current
director of the communications
department, will assume 5 the
position of Advisor to the Merciad
once it is housed in its new
capacity. Garcia will replace Mr.
Steve Curcio, the present Advisor
to the Merciad and co-faculty of
the communications department.
Garcia claimed to be unaware
of the Merciad's change from the
Department of Student Services
to the Communications Depart-
ment. "To,my knowledge no
plans are being made," he stated.
However, when speaking to his
new appointment as advisor to
the press, Garcia likened the
MERCIAD to Mercyhurst's radio
station, WMCY. & 2?
"The radio station is a lab for

New College Budget
WASHINGTON D.C, (CPS) - In
what one of them' termed a
"historic" gathering, represen-
tatives of the largest and most
important college groups in the
land last week met to preview
with alarm - and to politically ap-
prise - President Ronald Reagan
and the 1983 education budget he
wants Congress to pass.
Representatives of state
school, private universities, com-
munity and junior colleges,
students;and faculty members
bitterly predicted that as many
as two million college students-
will be hurt by the cuts.
Thousands of them may be
driven from campus altogether.
; "Deep cuts have already been
made in appropriations for stu-
dent financial aid," summarized
Ed Hanley, lobbyist for the U.S.
Student Association ;(USSA).
"Further cuts are going to keep
thousands of students from retur-
ning to college this fall, and
others will never get to attend
college at all."!!? W, W
The spokespeople, solemnly
facing an audience of reporters
and association staffers in a
House committee hearing room,
said the Reagan education
budget would effect all federal
student aid programs: 1 ? * ? ' S ^

According to numbers leaked
to the press, the administration
wants Congress to cut funding for
Pell Grants by 40 percent. Only
students from families earning

grant, moreover, would be $1400,

drastically the number of

approves the cuts.
Cautioning he didn't want to

ed that "a lot would depend on
which campuses lost that many
students.' If the University ; of
Utah or Utah State lost them.:
they could probably absorb the

then-we possibly might have to

"It's kind of bleak," adds Amy
Harshman of the Tennessee

"A relatively high proportion" of
public college students, in the
state are "first generation col-!>t

who, faced with an increased

to give up and go find a job."
