The common core curriculum has been implemented at LHU.
On Wednesday, local educa-tors discussed the changes with stu-dents in Durrwachter Alumni Confer-ence Center. Educators explained how the core curriculum will provide stu-dents with a better education.
Core curriculum is now being implemented in districts across Penn-sylvania. According to Dean Susan Rimby, this new curriculum will only affect college students in the educa-tion major.
“This is a K-12 initiative. We can’t take college students back to high school,” said Rimby. “What we’re going to do is more effectively prepare education majors to teach common core curriculum.”
Rimby explained how the com-mon core came into place. She said that many students move out-of-state to teach. They found that there was ei-ther too much overlap between what
different grades are learning state-to-state or too much of a gap.
Though this is not a federal government program, Rimby said that 45 out of 50 states have adopted some version of the common core. Though these curriculums differ from state-to-state, they will be more similar to one another than the curriculums in place now.
According to the common core website, the standards are a set of clear and consistent learning goals to help students prepare for college and beyond. These standards were devel-oped based on international models for education, as well as input from state and local education departments.
The standards clearly lay out what students are expected to learn in each grade level. They are supposed to help students, parents, and educa-tors get on the same page to ensure students progress through their edu-cation so they are prepared for college and careers.
Many educators were in agree-ment that the critical thinking skills of students were not up to the stan-dards expected in college.
Michele Thomas, an instruc-WLRQDO� FRDFK�DW�&OHDUÀHOG�6FKRRO�'LV-trict, says the core curriculum will ad-dress her concerns.
“The unpreparedness to in-tegrate ideas within disciplines is holding students back. Their critical thinking skills and ability to connect everything are lacking,” Thomas said.
Dr. Julie Story, an education professor here at Lock Haven Univer-sity, agrees.
“Students aren’t as able to ac-cess their prior knowledge and then build upon it. They can’t seem to apply their knowledge within different con-texts,” said Story.
When asked what she would like to see happen to better prepare students for college, Story wants col-leges and high schools to work togeth-er more.
“I’d like to see more collabora-tive leadership and communication between high schools and colleges,” said Story. “Both need to take more responsibility to prepare students for college and the working world.”
K-12 core curriculum gets revamped
Department readies for fine arts festivalCierra [email protected] Writer
The visual and performing arts department will be hosting the Spring Arts Festival between April 23 and May 4.
“I am very excited about the mix of student, fac-ulty, and community members who are going to be in-volved,” Heffner said.
The department has done things in congruence ZLWK� KRPHFRPLQJ� EXW� WKLV�ZLOO� EH� WKH� ÀUVW� WLPH� WKDW� VR�many events have been put into one time frame indepen-dently. The festival will display all different kinds of skill levels of all those involved.
The event that will kick off with the Clinton Coun-ty Artists Opening reception in the Bentley Art Gallery. This event will be taking place in collaboration with the Clinton County Arts Council.

A new nature trail will open
up on campus just in time for families
to enjoy during this spring.
The Environmental Focus
Group and Environmental Club
brought this trail to the public’s eye
with the help of professor Bob My-
ers, director of environmental studies
and chair of the Environmental Focus
Group.
The project went underway
last spring when Myers took the En-
vironmental Focus Group for a hike.
From there, they sought and gained
administrative approval.
They started raising money
last fall and have managed to fully
fund the project thanks to donations
from clubs, faculty and staff members
on campus. The cost was about $2,000
and came from a variety of donors,
Myers said.
Next the two groups arranged
a work day on April 12. About 25 stu-
dents, faculty, staff and community
members “blazed the trail” in order to
clean up litter, remove hazards and
put informational plaques in place.
,Q� DERXW� ÀYH� KRXUV�� WKH� YRO-unteers cleared up mountains of
garbage, raked away leaves and de-
bris along the trail, installed two of
the commemorative plaques and in-
stalled the posts for the remaining
ÀYH�SODTXHV�������������These seven plaques were
designed by web applications special-
ist Jan Bottorf and created by Mike
Brown at Brownie’s Signs to convey
information on the history and nature
of certain spots along the trail. Each
plaque acknowledges the donor who
paid for it.
The recreation society held
an auction Wednesday evening and
raised more than $1,000 to add an in-
terpretive sign to the trail.
The Naturalist Club origi-
nally created the nature trail in the
1930s. In the ‘40s, a cabin was built
along the trail, though it is now just
D� IRXQGDWLRQ�ZLWK�D�ÀUHSODFH��0\HUV�hopes to build a new cabin or pavilion
where the old club’s cabin once stood.
“I walked the trail for years
and never knew any of its history,”
0\HUV� VDLG�� ´7KH� WUDLO� LV� GHÀQLWHO\�
an ongoing project. We’re hop-
ing someone would be interested
in sponsoring the new building
and other projects like additional
plaques or an expansion of the
trail,” he added.
The route starts at the
staircase behind Robinson Hall.
It heads up the staircase to
McEntire Hall, then the trail
begins near McEntire’s parking
lot. It leads to what used to be
Lusk Run road, when it once ran
through campus.
It’s about a mile and a
half long, and takes about 40 min-
utes to complete. Though the trail
itself begins by McEntire, the En-
vironmental Club will maintain
the entire route.
“It’s been smooth sailing,”
Myers said. “Challenging because
we’ve never done anything like
it before, but everyone pulled to-
gether.”
The nature trail will be
dedicated on Earth Day, April
22, at 5 p.m. in front of Robinson.
Students, faculty, staff and com-
munity members alike are en-
couraged to join the opening.

Students were invited to attend a celebration of
winter’s end on Russell Lawn on April 14.
“It was a good break from classes to regroup
and have fun,” said Lilly Sleiman, a senior majoring in
communication.
The event had students lining up for ice cream,
T-shirts, beach balls proclaiming “I survived ‘Winter
2014’ @ the Haven” and frisbees. There were also hula
hoops and other games available to play.
“I had a lot of fun with my friends and the
free gifts were a bonus! The ice cream was great and
I thought the event was well planned,” said Kiara
Dunne, a freshman majoring in physics.

State secretary of labor and industry Julia Hearthway visited campus Friday to explain a new job search tool called Job Gateway.
She said the web site is meant to help job seekers and employers more easily connect.
The career search site works by pulling job ads from Monster, In-deed and other job-hunting tools on-line.
It can also pull from regis-tered companies, meaning whenever a company releases a new ad on its web site, it will also appear on Job Gateway.
There are currently more than 215,000 open positions featured on the site.
The search options on the web
site vary for maximum performance. Users can search potential jobs based on location, salary, job description, ÀHOG� DQG� PRUH�� +HDUWKZD\� VDLG� LW·V�very user-friendly to help those who DUHQ·W�VR�WHFK�VDYY\�
“Pennsylvania has a rich la-bor pool,” Hearthway said. “Part of the problem is connecting employers with the labor force.”
Other new features Hearth-way spotlighted include Career Coach and Big Interview.
Career Coach is a site cus-WRPL]HG� WR� ÀW� WKH� FRPPRQZHDOWK·V�job pool. It shows statistics including what careers are in demand in a spec-LÀHG�DUHD�DQG�WKH�DYHUDJH�VDODULHV�IRU�those careers.
For those who truly do not know what type of career would be a good match for them, there are skills and interest assessments to help them get a better idea.
Career Coach also offers tips
for résumé building and sample cover letters.
Hearthway said the depart-PHQW� LV� ZRUNLQJ� RQ� WU\LQJ� WR� GHÀQH�skill sets for different employers.
There is already a program in place for veterans, through which veterans can plug in their military job codes and learned skill sets in order to apply them to civilian terms.
Hearthway said this would be a good way for people to take their tal-ents and apply them to the job world.
For students, Hearthway said she hopes to implement a similar VHDUFK�WRRO�IRU�ÀQGLQJ�LQWHUQVKLSV��
´,� WKLQN� WKDW·V� D� YHU\� JRRG�idea, a project for 2015,” she said.
Big Interview is meant to help job seekers prepare for job interviews. It offers frequently asked questions and some recommended answers to those questions.
It also allows users to go through a mock interview with a vid-
eo recording. These trials can be cop-ied so the user may review his or her work. Users may even share the vid-eos with others to get advice on how they performed.
Hearthway invites everyone to check out the program and test the free tools available. Surf around, see what you like and give us feedback, she said.
“Job Gateway is a very robust program,” Hearthway said. “Just log on.”
Despite its robustness, Job Gateway will not be taking place of careerlink centers, or “the human ele-ment.”
´,W·V� D� WRRO� WR� EH� XWLOL]HG�µ�Hearthway said. “Technology can only take you so far.”

Students will have the opportunity to learn about the dangers of drunk-HQ� GULYLQJ� IURP� D� ÀUVWKDQG�source during a presentation in Ulmer Planetarium on April 22.
Mark Sterner, a speaker who travels nation-wide, will be sharing his experience. Sterner plead guilty to three counts of manslaughter in Florida in 1994 after three of his friends were killed and one more was seriously injured as a result of his drunken driving. Sterner had a 0.17 blood alcohol content level, RYHU� WZLFH� )ORULGD·V� OHJDO�amount.
He was sentenced to two years of prison and 12 years of probation, plus 1,000 hours of community service after his release.
“I have heard it called my life sentence, ap-propriately I should say,” said Sterner in a 2005 inter-view with “Campus Activi-ties Magazine”.
During and after his time incarcerated, he has been traveling and speaking to students about the dan-gers of drunken driving. He has been awarded the title of Speaker of the Year from “Campus Activities Maga-zine” twice, in 2004 and 2005.

“Honest” features quite a few rappers that really

Marvel, created by Stan Lee, is one of the most popular comic book and movie franchises of the 21st century. Lee created some of the most original characters with creative backgrounds, that’s what lures people in with Mar-vel, the obstacles of each character that makes them who they are today. Now comes time for the top 5 of the best Marvel Superheroes of all time. #5 The Hulk:
“You won’t like it when I’m angry”, says Bruce Banner right before he becomes a raging, green monster with incredible strength. A scientist in radi-ology, he tests himself with radiation that could make a human stronger, but the experiment goes incredibly wrong, and Bruce’s life changes forever. With obstacles to keep his blood pressure down, and his anger, Bruce must try to ÀQG�ZD\V�WR�FRSH�DQG�FRQWURO�WKH�UDJLQJ�PRQVWHU�LQVLGH�KLP� #4 Thor:
The god of thunder from the realm Asgard. Thor is not of the planet Earth, and this makes him unique. He was banished to Earth by his father be-cause Thor was unstable. While on earth, Thor realizes that he has a greater good in him that he has never seen before which makes him acceptable as the ruler of Asgard. He also has a cool hammer that he swings, and can summon thunder! Why wouldn’t you want Thor on your team?
#3 Captain America:
Patriotism is heroic, and the best patriotism is America! Steve Rogers ZDV�D�ZHDN�PDQ�ZLWK�D�ELJ�KHDUW��+H�ZDQWHG�WR�ÀJKW�LQ�::,,��EXW�ZDV�QRW�ELJ�HQRXJK�WR�ÀJKW��VR�ZLWK�KHOS�RI�+RZDUG�6WDUN��KH�H[SHULPHQWHG�RQ�6WHYH�DQG�made him a perfect soldier. He has a shield that is made with a metal that can block anything like missiles, punches, and even Thor’s hammer. #2 Spider Man:
Peter Parker was an average Joe making his way through high school OLIH�XQWLO�KH�JRW�ELWWHQ�E\�D�UDGLRDFWLYH�VSLGHU�IURP�KLV�GDG·V�RIÀFH��:KDW�DUH�WKH�odds? This gave Peter spider like powers like shooting webs, super strength, and sticking onto walls. He is number two because every girl out there loves Spider Man, and he is just iconic! One of the most original ideas ever! #1 Iron Man:
A rich millionaire, playboy philanthropist, who is a genius in phys-ics and mechanical sciences. Tony Stark is number one because he was the one who started it all. Even when he was in a cave in the middle of desert, he still managed to build his suit. With his Iron Man suit, (all custom made), he LV�DEOH�WR�Á\��VKRRW�PLVVLOHV��DQG�KDYH�VXSHU�VWUHQJWK��$OWKRXJK�KH�LV�URXJK�around the edges, Tony Stark has a good heart which makes him have one of the best personalities.

In January of 1981 the Naturalists Club began mapping out plans for a nature trail on Lock Haven’s campus. Thirty years later professor Bob Myers is working towards renovating the nature trail with a dedication taking place on April 22. For more infor-mation on the nature trail refer to page 3.
Don’t let the heat get the best of you
As the end of the semester creeps closer and the temperatures start to move XS��ZH�FDQ�VD\�ZLWK�FHUWDLQW\�WKDW�VXPPHU�LV�ÀQDOO\�RQ�LWV�ZD\���%XW�MXVW�EH-cause the weather is nice doesn’t mean you shouldn’t think about your health. With vacations to plan and friends to meet it’s easy to forget some of the dan-gers that come with the sunny weather.
As the days get hotter it’s important to remember to watch for symptoms of
heat exhaustion. If not taken care of heat exhaustion can turn into a heatstroke which could cause damage to the brain and internal organs or even death.
Heat exhaustion occurs after prolonged exposure to high temperatures and
dehydration. According to Web MD come of the most common signs of heat ex-haustion are confusion, dizziness, fainting, fatigue, headaches, frequent muscle cramps, nausea, pale skin, profuse sweating and rapid heartbeat.
If you have these symptoms or notice someone else with them it’s important
to get somewhere cool and preferably air-conditioned. If you cannot get inside than get somewhere shady. It’s also important to remember to stay hydrated and avoid caffeinated or alcoholic beverages because they dehydrate you. You should also try to take a cool shower or bath and remove any tight or unneces-sary clothing.
If the symptoms persist after 30 minutes contact your doctor, remember
untreated heat exhaustion can escalate to heat stroke. After you’ve recovered it’s important to avoid any more hot weather and heavy exercise because you will most likely be sensitive to hot temperatures.
When looking to see what the weather will be like keep an eye on the hu-
midity. If there is a relative humidity of over 60 percent or more impedes your body’s ability to cool itself because such high humidity hampers sweat evapora-tion. Temperatures above 90 degrees or more also hugely increase the risk of heat-related illnesses. So listen closely to your weatherman.
Other important things to keep in mind is that urban areas, certain health
conditions, medications and age can increase your risk for heat-related illness. Remember to keep hydrated, don’t over-exercise, and stay cool as we go into
warmer temperatures.

Nonconforming conformists. Here’s the thing: if you think that you are being individual because of the way you wear your hair, your different piercings or the tattoos you have solely, then you’re probably not so “individual” after all. I’m all for creativity and acceptance of all people, despite what they look like or the style that they choose to sport, but let’s get real: nobody is 100% individual and nobody ever will be. And you know why? It’s because similarities are what keep us together as human beings. People make these decisions to try to stand apart from the crowd. I get it; you want to be different. I have friends with dyed hair, pierced noses and tattoos up and down their arms, but the story often ends the same—with, “I’m just trying to be different and everyone else is trying to be like me.” There are over seven billion people in the world. Do you really think that there won’t be at least one person who has duplicate styles and interests to you? We’ve all got style doppelgangers.� /HW·V�QRW�IRUJHW�WKH�ÁDN�WKDW�LV�JLYHQ�WR�WKHVH�SHRSOH�ZKHQ�LW�FRPHV�WR�DFFHS-tance with other communities. Now obviously the circumstances are different if you did not personally choose the way you look for some reason; at that point I’m on your side.

People like what they like and if you choose to look a certain way, be ready to accept the stigma that comes with that “look,” especially when you’ve made the decision to look the way you do. Entering the job market is a completely different monster to deal with while carrying this stigma. Don’t complain when a person with natural hair color, no SLHUFLQJV��DQG�QR�WDWWRRV�JHWV�WKH�MRE�RYHU�\RX�GHVSLWH�EHLQJ�HTXDOO\�TXDOLÀHG��7KHUH�are plenty of people, including myself, who would love to have tattoos, but we don’t because we realize the effect that can have on getting a good job. Very few companies want somebody with a look viewed by some as outrageous to represent them in the community. That is just something that you have to understand and respect because that is how free enterprise and market works. Bottom line: it is impossible to be 100% different from everyone else and it is 100% impossible to get everyone to accept you if you choose an outlandish look. My advice? Just be yourself. Even if you do have similar interests to other people and are considered a “conformist” by some, ignore it. Otherwise, you’re bound WR�UXIÁH�VRPH�IHDWKHUV�

Coachella is one of the largest and most well-known fests and as such garners the atten-tion of A-list celebrities like Justin Bieber. So it’s surprising that many don’t seem to have a publicist who will warn them against offensively imitating other cultures. Coachella is known for the bohemian eccentric dress of its at-tendees, but it crosses the line from cute and trendy to offensive when you put Native American head-dresses and bindis into the mix. Both Native American headdresses and bindis hold strong spiritual meanings and are sacred in their respective cultures. In Native American culture
you must earn the right to wear a headdress. They are only worn by the brave and powerful. Each of the feathers in the headdress stands for a time when the warrior did some-thing courageous to help or protect the tribe. It can best be compared to military medals--you don’t wear them as an accessory, but rather you have to earn them. And no white girl or guy attending music festivals will ever earn the right to a headdress. In Hindu culture the bindi KROGV� JUHDW� UHOLJLRXV� VLJQLÀFDQFH��The bindi is an ornamental mark worn between the two eyebrows. In Hinduism, this is where the sixth chakra is located.

White privilege is the igno-rance of other cultures and thou-sands of white people gathering in a desert donning headdresses and bindis is the epitome of it. Spiritual and religious symbols shouldn’t be worn as a means to look exotic.

The Lock Haven University Rugby Football Club suffered a close loss in the last minute of their match against annual rival Wilkes-Barre Breakers RFC on Saturday at Jack Stadium in the early spring heat.
Haven began the game with strong runs, including a ten-meter try from shifty fullback and captain Alec Eggerton in the 5th min-ute. The two-point conversion kick would miss, but Haven led the Breakers 5-0.

The Haven backline swung the ball out wide to consistent threat Matt Henderson, who scored under the posts for a twenty-meter try, possibly the wing’s shortest try of a season distinguished by the his constant breakaways. The conversion was successful, making the score 17-3 at halftime.
Lock Haven was less dominant in the second half of the match due to fatigue in the heat and injuries to several key players, forcing rookies and B-side players to step up in an important game against a sizeable team. Henderson would score another converted try in the 55th minute, but not before the Breakers could score one of their own.

A series of defensive errors resulted in a Breakers possession in Lock Haven’s territory with a minute left in the match. A pen-alty allowed the Breakers to take a quick tap with their powerful loosehead prop, who barreled into the try zone to tie the game.

This loss marks the second in a row after a three-win start to the season against Millersville, Youngstown State and Clarion. LHURFC will conclude their spring season this Saturday at West Chester University.
