Montgazette Montgomery County Community College Vol. 3 No. 15 Conshohocken, Pa. May 23, 1969 SPRING FORMAL BIG SUCCESS By Barbara Strohm The Spring Formal here at Montgomery County Community College has always been a happy occasion and this year was no exception to the rule. The social committee outdid itself in providing entertainment, good food and an enjoyable atmosphere. The 1969 Montco Formal was held at the Holiday Inn in King of Prussia, the newest and most lavish motel in the chain. Carl Holmes and the Commanders provided dance music for those who were in a tripiscoric mood and The Ambassadors were featured in a short, but exceptional stage show. As is usually the case within such events, the festivities were few minutes late in getting underway. But Montco's Social Ministress, Miss Andi Schwartz, was on hand to usher in unpunctual couples and start the proceedings on their merry way. Mis? Schwartz introduced the Master of Ceremonies for the evening, Mr. Raver, and then the couples prepared for the delicious dinner. However, the advertising for the Formal proved to be in slight error. For example, the menu did include a Fresh Fruit Cup, Roast Round of Beef with Whipped Potatoes and Brown Gravy, Hearts of Lettuce, Ice Cream Snowballs, and either coffee or tea. But the dinner did not include String Beans Almondine (String Beans yes, almonds no) nor did it allow for a choice of salad dressing. The only real choice you had in that department was whether or not you cared to eat it. Despite these minor flaws the dinner was thoroughly enjoyable and of considerably better quality Assembly Embroiled In Debate A heated exchange of ideas resulted during the May 7th meeting of the Student Assembly. The conflict arose when several interested students led by Bruce Campbell questioned the legality of the passage of the bill or proposal known as "The Rights, Freedoms, and Responsibilities of Students." It seems that when the bill was voted on during the Student Assembly meeting of April 30th, an inacurate vote count and attendance count was taken. At this point, a heated debate began that involved Bruce Campbell, Lois Chase, John Ehinger, and Sandy Stewart. It was argued that because the bill was not actually a law, an accurate vote count was needless. New Dean Named Starting in the Fall of '69, Montco will have a new Dean of Academic Affairs. He is Dr. Emory E. Holland. At present, Dr. Holland is Director of the Humanities Division at the Community College of Philadelphia. Having had 11 years experience in community college work at West Georgia College, Carrollton, and the Community Colleges of Temple University and Philadelphia, Dr. Holland is well versed in the problems of the community college. He holds the Associate ol Arts degree from West Georgia College and the bachelor's, master's and doctorate's degrees from Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama. Qr. Holland's major work was done in psychology and guidance and he has done post graduate study at Flordia State University and Harvard University. He is a member of Phi Kappa Phi, Phi Delta Kappa, the American Personnel and Guidance Association and the Philadelphia Personnel and Guidance Association. Dr. Holland has published a number of articles on higher education. He and his wife, Mauriel, and their three-year old daughter, Anne Marie, reside in Elkins Park, Montgomery County. Dr. Holland will officially begin his duties on July 1, 1969; however, because of his location in the County, he has agreed to risit the campus from time to ;ime in preparation for his new josition. The Board has approved the ;ontinuation of Joseph Hazlett as Assistant Dean of Acdemic Affairs and of Dr. Jack Worthington as Dean of Student Affairs. Each has performed with outstanding service, which has been recognized and appreciated by the President, Board of Trustees, and the Students Here at Montco. Notices A recreational record collection is now available to students for two-day circulation. The titles and artists range from the Jefferson Airplanes to The Marriage of Figaro, passing through Your Own Thing, Chailie Byrd, Black Orpheus, Wagner's overtures and Palestrina. These records can be borrowed from the Audiovisual department at the Library. If the student does not have stero equipment available to him, he can listen to these records on players in the Library. In the Student Government Constitution, it states that a proposal or a non-law needs only a majority vote to be passed. There was a clear majority when the Assembly voted on the "proposal" which would mean that it was legally passed. Semantics The problem of semantics then arose. One faction argued that the bill was not a law white the other insisted it was. To curtail this battle of words, a motion was placed on the floor declaring that previous passage of the bill b;- declared void. The motion was passed and the bill was resubmitted to consideration. Suggestions Because the bill was again open for further scrutinization, suggestions were welcomed. It Continued on pg. 2 than such affairs usually offer. Following the dinner, Carl Holmes and the Commanders were to provide after dinner music for dancing, but the group seemed to have a little trouble getting set up. So, to passify the restless constituants Miss Schwartz presented the contestants for Montco's Queen and for her Maid of honor and the judging took place during the brief delay. Lois Chase received the vote for Queen, and Treena Sammons was named Maid of Honor. Miss Chase and her escort then led the first dance, with the other couples joining in shortly thereafter. Everything looked pleasant, serine, and happy, but such was not actually the case. There will always be those unfortunate young ladies who attend a formal dance with someone other then "the man of their dreams", but at this year's formal the attendance record for such individuals seemed unusually high. Let's just take a side trip for a few moments to the Ladies Powder Room and eves drop on some unsuspecting females. "I don't know how I can do it. Everytime I see him I want to get sick, f don't know how I'll ever make it until two o'clock and then home. 1 wish I hadn't said I Continued on pg. 2 Students Elect Gallo On Friday, May 9th, the students of Montgomery County Community College flocked to the polls to elect the new officers of the Student Government. The posts that were up for re-election were the President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and sixteen seats on the Student Assembly. According to election officials, the actual vote count was over five hundred. The Victors Tony Gallo, a last minute candidate for the presidency, won the election with almost fifty per cent of the vote recorded in his favor. Kirk Webb and Steve Schoolman, the other candidates, finished a distant second and third. The other cabinet posts up for reelection were filled by Raymond Seigfried as Vice-President, Fran Bogdanski as Secretary, and Barbara Strohm as Treasurer. As sad as the news might have been for those people who lost out in the race for a cabinet position, there was a measure of satisfaction in the fact that they were elected to the Student Assembly. The candidates who were elected to fill next year's Student Assembly seats are Kirk Webb, Steve Schoolman, Linda Buck, Sheila Burten, Laurette Casbarro, Ray Cavalier, David C. Christman, Charles Cooper, James Emblen, Renee Goldman, Francis Mullin, Nancy Shaw, Reginald Tucker, Vivian Wehry - the current chairman of the Student Assembly, Bruce Campbell, and Tim Stephenson. Both Bruce and Tim were write-in candidates. Because the voting was so heavy, the members of the election committee were busy until 11 o'clock Friday night tabulating the final vote count. Nancy Ferguson, a member of the election committee, reported that the voting was the heaviest in the history of Montgomery County Community College. Responsibilities Perhaps the students realized that it was important to give a show of support for the Student Government and its various branches, it is important because next year's administration will be beset with enormous responsibilities which include revising the constitution and HALE THE QUEEN Miss Lois Chase holds a dozen long stemmed roses and beams joyfully after being named as Montgomery County Community College's Miss Montco for 1969. Lois will reign over her subjects through the remainder of this semester only. She graduates in June. redefining or establishing a clearcut code of ethics and practices by which the students can operate. Related to the establishment of a code of practices for the students is the establishment of an explicit policy stating exactly who will control the administration of the student funds. This matter as yet has not been resolved by the current Student Government. Management of student funds is probably the most important function of any governmental body representing the students. It would seem that the next Student Government at Montgomery County Community College will enter an era of promise. If they act as an effective arm of the students, that era of promise will surely become a reality.
