College Cancels
Winter Weekend
By Mary Jo Allen
Winter Weekend, the three day
weekend scheduled for February
10, 11 and 12 to allow students a
break in an otherwise solid ten-
week term, has been cancelled ac-
cording to Academic Dean David
D. Palmer. * t \
The problem* was approached
last: November when read-
justments were considered on the
handling of a few problems due to
the acquisition of St. Mark's.
\Dean Palmer»explains, "Since
the beginnings of September we
have had to deal with the reality
of St. Mark's. St. Mark's is a lot
of positive things but it is a distant
place." I
Due to this distance, extra time
was J needed between classes!to
allow students? ample time 'to
reach the Grandview Boulevard
center. W • . The final decision was made in schedule, and this is where many their calendar of events went to
It was decided that IS minutes

This time adjustment a made it
necessary ; to cut classes which
meet on Monday, Wednesday and
Friday to 80 minute periods.

result we had to get the time in

Contact minutes are the total
amount of time? af teacher and

quires a minimum standard for a
program to be academically

shortened, Mercyhurst went

Winter Weekend
A Lesson To Be Learned
The decision by the college to hold classes on ? the Friday,
February 10, originally scheduled as a day off; for Winter
Weekend has caused upheaval with many students and person-
nel at Mercyhurst. !
The Academic Calendar for 1983-84 was prepared .by 1 the
Dean, Dr. David D. Palmer on January! 11, 1982. On the
scheuule,* the college community was granted "Winter
Weekend," scheduled for February 10 through the Jl2. After
reviewing the calendar, it was decided by the administration to THE MERCIAD welcomes the

Film Review
t
By Laura Ruby f School of study. As the storyline
"In a time where the world of
study only belonged to men, there
lived a girl called YENTL." £• '
jYENTL, an MGM/VA Pro-
duction, stars Barbra Streisand,
Mandy Patinkin, and Amy Irving.
The film was directed and produc-
ed by Barbra Streisand and the
music by Michel Legrand.*
The film YENTL takes place in
a Jewish State in Eastern Europe,
1904. At this time, only men could
learn . Women were forbidden to
study and could only read picture
books or novel-type books. For
them to learn would be considered
demonic. Women were around to
marry, bear children (preferably
sons), and take care of the men.
This may seem a little harsh, but
most -women accepted it - most
women except Yentl (Barbra
Streisand).
| Due to her secret study sessions
with her father, Yentl became
very knowledgeable. But after her
father's death, she was faced with
the possibility of not being able to
continue studying. For her there
seemed but one solution: Because
only men could study, she would

The film encompasses the
whole idea of women being ^in-
ferior to men. In the film, it was
understood that not only women
weren't allowed to learn, but men
felt they couldn't. That is, they
were intellectually unable to com-
prehend. Yentl becomes a
breakthrough. While she learns,
she understands, which is the first
step in bringing about change.

 Co-ops:
Learning
By Naomi Romanchok
"The Cooperative Education Of-
fice provides a valuable service to
students. The purpose of Co-ops,
according to Tyrone Moore,
Director of Cooperative Educa-
tion and Career Services, is a
"combination of classroom and
on-the-job work organized in an
educationally sound way." Moore
also extends the definition to in-
clude: "an organized off-campus
learning experience in a profes-
sional environment."
Co-ops can be an important
part of ;;college:' education and
credits are available. Three credits
can;be given for a minimum of
200 on-site work hours and up to
six credits 1 are available for a
minimum of 400 hours.* Grades
are given out on a pass/fail basis
with "pass with distinction" given
to those who do superb work in
the }field. Many students inter-
viewed do not feel this system is
accurate for grading, *
"Grades should be ^handled

the majors, not just one person as

Lakers Get Fouled
But Win Two More
ByGregYoko
The Mercyhurst? Lakers con-
tinued to play good basketball last
week as they added two wins and
a loss to their 1983-84 campaign.
The 'Hurst edged by nationally
ranked Cheyney State last Satur-
day 60-58 and handily defeated
the Cubs of Penn State-Behrend
79-63 Wednesday evening. In bet-
ween « the two victories was a
frustrating 98-91 loss at La Roche
College. M---
The jmost influential par-
ticipants in the La Roche contest
were Bob Fee and Jim Wildman -
the officials. But, as Mercyhurst
Coach Bill Kalbaugh made clear
afterwards, he would not use the
two officials as scapegoats for the
loss. Here are the facts. -J \
Mercyhurst was nailed for 31
personal fouls while the hosting
Red Devils^ were called? for 17.
And, the Blue and Green made 15

on over 50 percent (40-79) of their
