September When Bucknellians returned to campus in September 1986 apartheid was greatly publicized, both at the university and on the inter- national scene. Ail summer, fiery images of rioting and bloodshed spilled across America's television screens and front pages. President Reagan swtiched U.S, foreign policy toward apartheid by ordering anti-apartheid economic sanctions against South Africa. To further heighten Buckneliian's awareness of apartheid. Howard Phillips, chairman of the conservative caucas, and Randall Robinson, director of TransAfrica. debated on U.S. policy toward South Africa. Also in the news. Mexico's catistrophic earthquake killed thousands and caused astronom~cal damage. The earthquake was the most devastating ever to strike North America, and with foreign debits of more tha $97 billion, Mexico will find it very THE YEAR IN REVIEW difficult to rebuild. Pennsylvania lawmakers faced the LCB issue, a measure that would restructure the Liquor Control Board and alter how the state's liquor laws are enforced. in Susquehanna a Paxinos area mand walked into a Susquehanna Avenue home and fired a bullet into the head of his former girlfriend and then killed himself. Also. Susquehanna University inaugurated a new president. Joel L. Cunningham. On the Buckenli scene, several incidents deserve special attention. A police crackdown began on September l lth when a party on South Seventh Street strained police and community tolerance and patience toward university students residing in fraternities and other community residential areas. Thereafter, no more warnings were to be given. According to policeman Heifer. "those responsible for disorderly conduct, underage drinking, open container or refusal to comply with an officer's request would be immediately arrested, fingerprinted and photographed. Two weeks later. Lewisburg police arrested Edward's House Resident Assistant, Earl Beecham, after receiving complaints that a party going on in Edward's house was too loud from neighboring townspeople. On campus an updated version of the social regulations that were in effect during the second semester of last year were adopted as permanent. Buckneil's Ellen Bertrand Clarke Library opened its new addition while still remoldeling the old section. The library is one of three major projects in Buckneil's construction campaign.the others include dormority construction and groundbreaking for a new fine artscenter. in the area of academics, a new grading policy was adopted which went into affect with the fall semester.
