However, on an undergraduate level, where the thrust is to deliver a viable education, it is felt there would be “ total chaos” if the departments were not separated. Apelian feels that each department needs a shepherd to monitor and evaluate their performance. Plans for the College of Engineering’s future have three main objectives including revis­ ing the curriculum, studying all five departments and focusing the direction of the College’s research thrusts. Curriculum revisions are planned in an effort to keep it up to date with technology and fields of study. Also of concern however, is a broadening of the engineering student’s horizons.

An explosion went off in my head The other day One instant - Splashing and giggling and chirping Next instant - Searing and sizzling and scorching Rain that was white hot. Blistering heat and everything was negative. A ll lo s t - My love, my life, my child - In an instant.

Self-destruction - how absurd Life on Earth was sweetest of all And Man was given the starring role. But Science and technology bred Hubris And we created our own destruction And god couldn't help Because we stopped believing in god.

Coach Bowie was not disappointed with his teams’ play, he was more pleased at the way his team fought for the first 90 minutes. Having both Peter Gacser and Gerry Frey back healthy was a positive sign. The coach was also pleased with the play of Rodney Long. Long had been benched earlier in the season but has responded well. Most importantly, the coach does not want his players to worry about this game because the E.C.C. playoffs may be on the horizon. At this point, the Dragons will clinch the last playoff spot if Bucknell does not w'in all of its remaining games, including the game against Drexel on November 7.
