O f The Triangle
The final dates and times for the four
commencement ceremonies to be held
this spring have been decided, accord­
ing to Dr. A rth u r P. Joblin, VicePresident for Student Affairs.
Ceremonies for the Evening College
and graduate students will both take
placc on Saturday, June 7. at 9 a.m .
and 3 p .m ., respectively. The under­
graduate day college cerem onies will
take place on Sunday, June 8: that for
the Colleges o f Science. Engineermg,
and Humanities and Social Sciences at
9 a .m .; and that for the Colleges o f
Business and Design Arts at 3 p.m.
In making the decision, the C om ­
mencement Steering Com m ittee ad­
dressed tw o m ajor concerns students
had expressed when the change from
the traditional program in the Philadel­
phia Civic C enter to the multiple
ceremonies in D rex el’s Phys Ed
Center was announced in the fall.
“ There was a desire to have all un­
dergraduate students graduate on the
same d a y , " said Dr. Joblin, " a n d a
desire to have the Science and Engineerng Colleges graduate together.
Both o f these have been accom ­
m o d a ted ."
Each cerem ony is expected to last
one to one and a half hours. It will in­
volve a com m encem ent speech, con­
ferral o f an honorary degree to the
speaker, and distribution o f degrees by
the students’ academic deans. A recep­
tion will be held im mediately follow ­
ing the cerem ony, most likely in the
quad between D isque and Korman
Halls.
It is hoped that the time planned b e­
tween ceremonies on the same day will
be sufficient to allow people at the
m orning cerem ony to leave before
those com ing in the afternoon arrive.
*‘W e would rather e rr on the side o f
toti much time than too little ," e x ­
plained Joblin. adding that the six hour
difference may turn out to be greater
than necessary.
At present, the Com m encem ent
Steering Committee meets every week
to review progress and discuss new
problems. Joblin has divided the
project into seventeen tasks, each ad ­
dressed by a subcom m ittee, and .sees
mid-February as a point where " w e 'll
begin to see more old questions an­
swered than new questions r a ise d ."
Speaker selection has now moved
into the hands o f the Board o f
Trustees, which in February will vote
on the list o f suggested speakers sub­
mitted by a com mittee o f seniors
representing every college.
D r e x e l c o n te m p la te s

O f The Triangle
Rumors have been flying around
Drexel to the effect that the universi­
ty has purchased C avanaugh’s and the
associated Jailh o u se . T h e usual
response o f Drexel students to this
rumor is a display o f hysterics accom ­
panied by scream s o f "W h e re are we
going to party?" Another typical reac­
tion is to stock up on beer because o f
a belief that Drexel Pizza will raise its
prices to even m ore outrageous lev­
els if its nearest com petitor, the Jail­
house, closes.
You can set your fears to rest; the
purchase o f Cavanaugh’s is a long way
do\^n the road (or M arket Street, in
this case). Although the university is
very interested in buying Cavanaugh's
in order to give a sense o f com plete­
ness, or "college town a tm osp here,”
to the campus, university planners
want to make sure they will be able
to make the best use o f the property
before purchasing it.
D rex el’s cu rren t plan for the
property is the constniction o f a hotelrestaurant-office complex that will in­
corporate C avanaugh’s and the P er­
sonnel building and replace the
Placement Service Recruiting Center.
In addition, a one-hundred-room hotel
and fifty thousand .square feet o f office
space would be included in the
complex.
A feasibility study is being conduct­
ed on this plan and should be com plet­
ed in m id-Feburary. The outcome o f
the study will determine if the current
plan will be executed o r if some other
plan will be developed.
In any case, Drexel is not going to
purchase C avanau g h’s until planners
are quite certain o f w hat they want to
do with the property, so valuable real
estate w o n ’t sit around unused while
plans are developed.
" W e d o n ’t want to go into the
restaurant b u s in e s s ," stated Drexel
Real Estate and Insurance M anager
Ronald W hitney.
C avan aug h ’s is likely to remain
C avan aug h ’s until the mom ent con­
struction starts, which may not be for
four and a h alf years.
When Drexel purcha.ses the property
(and it does seem to be a case o f
" w h e n " and not " i f ’), the universi­
ty will use a new m ode o f financing
whatever construction is done. The
building will be financed by the con­
tractor's capital, and Drexel will lease
the building space from the contrac­
tor. After fifty years, ow nersip o f the
p rop erty w ill rev e rt to D rexel.
A lthough other universities have used
this method for financing construction,
it will be a first for Drexel.
“ All o f us at Drexel feel a great
sense o f personal loss at the death of
Dr. H a g e rty ," said U niversity P resi­
dent William S. Gaither. " H e presided
over Drexel for the 21 years that
marked its greatest academic and
physical grow th. By far, the greatest
number o f Drexel alumni received
their graduate and undergraduate
degrees during his presidency. His
contributions to Drexel and to higher
education were enorm ous. Drexel is
a far different and far better institu­
tion because Bill Hagerty was here for
so lo n g ."
During his 21 years as President of
Drexel University, H agerty's achieve­
ments included the evolution o f this
o n c e in s ti tu te o f te c h n o lo g y
into a full-fledged unversity and m ak­
ing Drexel the first institution o f higher
learning to require that all students
own a microcom puter.
Tom C assada, D irector o f C resse
Student C enter, w orked closely with
Hagerty and described him as a “ vi­
sio n ary " and “ an inspiration to us
a ll."
"D rex el is really going to miss him
land] his influence [on the U niversi­
t y ] ." said Cassada.
The memorial senice to
celebrate the ^life o f Dr.
Hagerty will be Tuesday,
January 21, at 1:00 pm. It is
to be held in the Mandell
Theatre.
Dr. James Hallam will lead
the service in conjuction with
Dr.
William
Gaither,
Reverend Dean Snyder,
Reverend Karl Zeuner, and
Professor John Savchak.
All members o f the Drexel
community are encouraged to
attend and pay their last
respects to the man who was
Drexel University's greatest
president to date.

Grad Students tuition

Internationally known anti-apartheid
activist Bishop Desmond Tutu spent
two days in Philadelphia this w eek, to
com m em orate the b inh d ay o f Dr.
M artin Luther King, Jr. O n W ednes­
day, Tutu appeared at the Philadelphia
Center Hotel to speak at a S50 per
plate luncheon benefitting scholarship
foundations for South African refugee
students and legal expense funds for
political detainees within South Africa.
The Bishop opened his speech to the
approximately tw o thousand guests,
including such prom inent black offi­
cials and celebrities as M ayor W ilson
Goode, Constance C layton, superin­
tendent o f the Philadelphia school sys­
tem. and Julius " D r . J . " Erving. with
the words. " I really have only one
message here to give you. Thank
y o u ."
In tribute to King. Tutu continued.
" M artin Luther King provided peo­
ple around the world with inspiration
in the struggle for peace and reconcili­
a tio n ." Such A merican black civil
rights leaders as King and Ro.sa Parks,
whose refusal to sit in the back o f a
bus began the famous M ontgomery
bus Ixjycott o f 1954. galvanized South
African blacks to seek their ow n free­
dom from oppression. Tutu said.
In the system o f apartheid, he said.
" W e (South African blacks] must
prove ourselves in a gam e, the rules
o f which are made up by white peo­
ple, and not only are whites players,
but the judges as w e ll."
The Bishop related the epiphany he
experienced after seeing his first, tat­
tered copy o f Ehony magazine and
reading an article in it about Jackie
Robinson, the first black player to
break into major league baseball. " T o

One o f the lesser known societies on
Drexel s campus is the C om m uter
Coalition. It is known that the typical
response to the mentioning o f the
coalition is “ W hat is it ? " . The C o m ­
muter Coalition is a group o f students
working together to represent the
Drexel conlmutcr. It was organized in
the hope o f bringing together and
aiding travelers who d o n 't have the
same opportunities that those on cam ­
pus have. We realize that com muters
often miss out on the action when it
com es to late night social activities
because o f the need for transportation
at a late hour. O ur jo b is to hejp get
information for these people so they
can consider as many alternatives to
the com muting problem as possible.
Part o f our purpose is to have up-todate information on all transportation
in and out o f Philadelphia. W e have
the numbers o f all the transportation
offices, and we constantly have all o f
the schedules in use by SEPTA . O ur
office has maps o f the Philadelphia
region to facilitate locating the best ac­

William W. Hagerty
By M ichael J . C oy n e
O f Tlie Triangle
The death of William W. Hagerty is truly a great loss for the Drexel Com ­
munity. The 21 years of his leadership transformed an undergraduate, region­
al institute into an internationally rceognized University.
The Philadelphia Bulletin on its editorial page once commented: " U n ­
der the leadership o f its president. Dr. William W . H agerty, w ho Is an en­
gineer, Drexel has already demonstrated that the barriers mat once separated
the u.seful arts from the humanities can be turned into stepping stones. Drexel
has come into the major leagues. Its inventiveness and vitality are sorely
needed in these tim es.”
While it is true that Dr. H agerty's accomplishments included the expan­
sion o f the campus from 10 to 40 acres,the creation o f both the College
o f Scicnce and the College o f Humanities and Social Sciences, the estab­
lishment o f a strong graduate program , and an enorm ous increase in the
number o f degrees grunted, his leadership has meant much more to D rex­
el. The University has grown through the acceptance o f Dr. H agerty's own
philosophy which stales: “ University life should be an intellectual adven­
ture and ... the career that follows should be exciting and fulfilling."
In his 1973 address to Philadelphia high school faculty and adm inistra­
tors, Dr. H agerty emphatically stated, “ I am an engineer and an educator,
and engineers and educators must be incurable o p tim ists."
It was his optim ism and vision that started a building program which,
had it been delayed, would have become Hnancially impossible. It was his
optimism and courage that gave Drexel a program to help disadvantaged
students years before federal regulations required universities to accom ­
modate and upgrade minority student services. And it was his optimism
and keen outlook that initiated a revolutionary microcom puter program
designed to make students “ com puter competent so they can apply this
powerful technology to their chosen a r e a 'o f .study."
In com m enting on his presidency. D r.H agerty said, " N o matter what
the accompli.shments o f the past, the real work lies ahead. The world is
in ferm ent; change on a scale and o f a .scope unknown in the history o f
humankind, change in the magnitude o f a great physical and spiritual up­
heaval lies before us, Drexel and all o f education will be taken up in that
change and it is to that uncertain future that all o f us who are part o f Drexel
must devote our thoughts and energies. O f only a few things can we be
certain: the future is almo.st invariably better than the past, optimism is al­
ways better than pessimism , and it is the squares who make the world go
ro u n d ."
It was Dr. H ag erty 's zest to live for the future that made his life what
we can now call our enriched past.
.
It was Abelard o f C hartres, a Thirteenth Century scholar, w hose insight
we must apply to the life o f William Hagerty: " W e are like dw arfs seated
on the shoulders o f a giant. W e sec more things than the ancients and more
clearly, but this vision is due neither to our own great stature o r the keeness o f our sight but rather to that giant mass on whose shoulders we are
born aloft - all the men who have gone before u s ."
Engraved in the face o f the National Archives building in W ashington,
D .C ., is the phrase, " T h e Fast is P ro lo g u e." By prefacing the future for
us, Drexel University has become eternally indebted to Dr. W illiam Walsh
Hagerty.
Recently, I had occaision to use the
little editors' room in a library o f the
University o f Pennsylvania. The walls
were covered with the usual assort­
ment o f com m entary, which can
broadly be divided into categories ti­
tled Sex, R acism, and M iscellany.
(From this last, one item sticks out in
my memory: “ Q: H ow many W ha r­
ton students does it take to change a
light bulb? A: Hold on. I'll get my cal­
culator and figure it o u t . " )
The most surprising scrawl came af­
ter a com ment signed by one o f our

pathetic. The editorial staff here at the

What kind o f response do we get?
None. Nada. Zero. Zilch. N othin'.
Last week I wrote an opinion arti­
cle about the " s h a f t." Since then I've
been told that 1 was a very bad boy,
and that I 'm not supposed to use the
word “ s**ft" any more. It seems that
the pow ers that be have decided the
alleged “ sh * * t" gives Drexel a bad
image, and we are not to use that word
again. There have been rum ors to the
effect that if anyone uses that word,
certain things will happen to him that

C o m m u te r
It has been said that Drexel students
as a whole are extremely apathetic. I
believe that this is in great part due to
the high percentage of commuter stu­
dents. As a com muter, I know first
hand the feeling o f separation one gets
when die only college experiences one
has center around a handful o f class­
mates and the lunch trucks parked on
32nd Street.
Yes, being a commuter can be de­
bilitating socially, but now all that can
change with the new K IDNAP A
C O M M U T E R program.
Sponsored by the Com m uter C o a­
lition, in conjunction with the newly
formed Khadaffy Fan Club, it is hoped
that the Kidnap a Comm uter program
will aid in increasing com muter ex­
posure to on-campus activities.
This new and fairly left-wing p ro ­
gram invites resident students to
choose a commuting student at random
and confiscate his or her car keys or
SEPTA tokens. It is hoped that this ac­
tion will effectively hinder the stu­
dent's ability to scamper home directly
after classes at the end o f the day.
O nce the subject has been thus im ­
mobilized, it is the residents' duty to
show the commuters what college life
it all about.
the Triangle will satisfy the same need,
and presumably at least twice as many
people will see it.
A dmittedly, there are some classic
riddles and limericks with which we
have all g row n up. T he point,
how ever, is that w e are more than
familiar enough with them; they need
not be reproduced on every venical
surface within a r m ’s reach. They
quickly become as boring as the m ore
traditional literary classics.
I considered the idea o f putting
bulletin boards in each stall, with
thum b tacks and scrap paper instead
o f the bare wall. Then people can write
w hatever they want, and whatever is
felt to be stale o r in bad taste can be
removed easily.
On reflection, I decided that occaisional purges by the puritans among
us would defeat the purpose for the
boards, and the thum b tacks would
only be used for cruel practical jokes.
Perhaps the university could d esig­
nate one pair o f bathrooms as the cam­
T o kick things off, the sponsors o f
the Kidnap a Comm uter program have
announceid the first annual Kidnap a
C o m m u ter W eekend (date to be an­
nounced if and when they get around
to it). T he w eekend, consisting o f
three fuii-filled days o f residential liv­
ing (it is hoped), will build an active
interest in the program .
Starling with the victim selection on
F riday m orning and getting into full
swing after the finish o f the last class,
the w eekend will be chock full o f the
row diness, m ayhem , and general d e­
bauchery that marks a typical weekend
at D rexel. In addition, there will be
several special program s, such as the
Faculty-Student Tricycle Race and

pus graffiti archives. An exceptionally
choice graffito would be forever en ­
shrined; the material could be divid­
ed by subject into different stalls.
Entry into the archives would be
governed by a committee o f students.
Chemistry faculty, and physical plant
employees.
The existence of these archives
might stop people from cluttering valu­
able wall space, which should be
reserved for fresh material, with
graffiti long disseminated through our
culture. In the same way the library
generally has just one copy o f a book,
so it should have just one copy o f a
dirty joke.
I like to think o f writing on
bathroom walls as a privilege, not a
right. As long as people continue to
abuse this privilege by writing jejune
or hackncyed conmients, they will cast
an undeserved blot on those whose hu­

time I was in there. Ingenuously, I
thought it would be a long time before
people found themselves so overcome
with wit while in the bathroom that
they would think nothing o f writing on
the pristine walls o f their expensive
new building. I was wrong.
Armed with a volum e o f St. A u ­
gustine to guard against boredo m , I
entered a stall on the second floor,
only to catch something written in pen­
cil just above the b athroom tissue dis­
penser. Its droll hum or might have
caused me to laugh, had I not seen it
on walls regularly for seven o r eight
years.
I hope I don't sound like I'm preach­
ing against written expression in public
bathrooms. I like a good laugh as
much as the next guy. All I really want
is some quality control.

on it.
Do you think w e'll go away if you

Maybe that way w e’ll at least get let­

So look alive! Take pen in hand and

everyone on campus knows about it

Special to The Triangle
W inter has arrived! It's the season
when we need to fuel our bodies with
good, nutritious food to better cope
with the bitter cold, wind and snow.
“ The body burns up more calories
in cold w e a th e r." says Dr. Nesba
Frim pong, Drexel University Fellow
in the nutrition and food sciences
department. "Especially in winter, the
body requires foods that are high in
n utrien ts."
H e a lth y e a tin g b e g in s w ith
breakfast, emphasizes Dr. Frimpong,
A well-balanced breakfast provides
energy, which in turn keeps both the
mind and body alert.
" S ta n with a hot o r cold fortified
cereal and milk, which is high in
calcium, an im portant mineral for
growing children and older w o m en ."
she suggests. " O n the side, includc
fresh fruit, like sliced bananas, o r a
glass o f unsweetened fruit ju ic e ."
Foods high in protein are also vital
for meeting o n e 's energy needs, ac­
cording to Dr. Frimpong.
" H a m is an excellent choice, if you
can afford i t , " she says. "B u t
rcm em em ber that bacon is a p<H>r
substitute. According to the American
Dietetic Association, it is not actual­
ly considered meat, but fat. It is the
nutritional equivalent o f eating pure
butter o r m arg arin e."
One recommended source o f protein
is cottage cheese. Eggs are another op­
tion, although some doctors advocate
eating only one or two per week
because they arc high in cholesterol.
" A slice o f whole grain bread is a
healthful addition to break fast." says
Dr. Frimpong. “ and is preferable to
white bread. If toasted, spread with
margarine instead o f butter, which
contains cholesterol, ' '
" I f you enjoy coffee in the m orn­
ing. limit your intake o f caffeine, since
large quantities may aggravate certain
health conditions. Tea is another ac­
ceptable b ev erag e."
Contact a register<Ml dietician or
clinical nutritionist if you have any
nutritional concerns or questions, she
advises.
“ It doesn't have to be an elaborate
or time-consuming proposition - just
n u tritious." she adds, "E ating right
is the key to muiiitainiiig o n e's health
and maximizing productivity on a dayto-day basis, Whut belter incentive
could there b e? "
