6—The Daily Collegian Friday, Dec. 11, 1981<br />

Boyle still interested<br />

in local government<br />

By MARGARET ANN WALSH<br />

Daily Collegian Staff Writer .<br />

Ray Boyle has not lost interest in local<br />

government even though he was not<br />

elected to the <strong>State</strong> College Municipal<br />

Council.<br />

Boyle and several others have formulated<br />

a proposal suggesting uses for the<br />

federal Community Development Block<br />

Grants. <strong>State</strong> College is receiving the<br />

funds as a result of being designated a<br />

Standard Metropolita n Statistical Area<br />

in the 1980 census.<br />

<strong>State</strong> College can expect between $730,-<br />

000 and $780,000 annually for the next<br />

three years, Municipal Manager Carl B.<br />

Fairbanks said.<br />

Boyle objects to Fairbanks' proposal<br />

that the funds be used for street lights<br />

and road reconstruction.<br />

"That's forgetting the purpose of the<br />

money," he said. "Offering people more<br />

street lighting is not offering services.<br />

It's more of a service to the <strong>State</strong> College<br />

budget than to the people."<br />

"The (council block grant) committee<br />

members should ask themselves 'are we<br />

really helping people?' " Boyle said.<br />

Fairbanks said the funds are allowed<br />

to be used in three general areas? to help<br />

low- to moderate-income citizens, to improve<br />

housing stock and to encourage<br />

economic development.<br />

By constructing street lights in a section<br />

of town that is utilized by all types of<br />

people, the project is of benefit to lowincome<br />

residents, he said.<br />

Fairbanks said he also supports the<br />

construction projects because they can<br />

be implemented without a great deal of<br />

paperwork. However, deciding which<br />

agencies deserve the funds and then<br />

distributing the money would be an in-<br />

COLL6GIAN CLASSIFICD ADS<br />

Smart people read Collegia n ads. Right?<br />

volved process that might jeopardize the<br />

funds for 1982, he said.<br />

Boyle disagreed with Fairbanks' assessment:<br />

"Social service applications<br />

wouldn't take much time. Just a meeting<br />

to review them."<br />

Another problem with Fairbanks' proposals,<br />

Boyle said, is that they really<br />

only include <strong>State</strong> College. The entire<br />

county was designated the metropolitan<br />

area — with <strong>State</strong> College being the<br />

center of the metropolitan area, he said.<br />

"There are a hell of a lot of needy<br />

people in this county," Boyle said. "I'd<br />

like to see the money spread around a<br />

bit."<br />

Boyle said he would like to see the<br />

money invested in social programs, such<br />

as a community action weatherization, a<br />

community action center or park, or a<br />

community garden project.<br />

He has also suggested that some of the<br />

funds be given as "out-and-out grants to<br />

programs that are going to be hardest hit<br />

by Presidnt Reagan's budget cuts.<br />

"It's been done in other areas with<br />

block grant money and been very successful."<br />

Boyle said the most important factor in<br />

deciding the use of the funds will be large<br />

citizen input.<br />

However, Boyle said he is "hopeful<br />

(council and committee member) Felicia<br />

Lewis will push for needed services."<br />

Lewis has said she is in favor of using<br />

the money to expand Schlow Memorial<br />

Library, 100 E. Beaver Ave., to make it<br />

more accessible to the handicapped and<br />

elderly, and create a community center<br />

that could be used by a number of service<br />

agencies. She also suggested using the<br />

funds to rehabilitate housing in the region.<br />

Women's studies ignores blacks, speakers say<br />

By RON CROW<br />

Daily Collegian Staff Writer<br />

"All the women are white, all the blacks are men,"<br />

the sub-title to a new book about black women's<br />

studies still applies to Women's studies, writer Barbara<br />

Smith said during the keynote address on "The<br />

Intersection of Black studies and Women's studies"<br />

last night in the HUB.<br />

"Black Studies programs exclude black women<br />

from teaching," said Sharon Harley, Assistant Professor<br />

of Afro-American Studies at the <strong>University</strong> of<br />

Maryland. Smith said .Women's studies programs<br />

have been predominantly white and were not addressing<br />

their own racism.<br />

"It's bankrupt to say you are teaching Women's<br />

studies when all your teachers are white women,"<br />

Smith said.<br />

Last night's keynote address dealt with problems in<br />

Black studies and Women's studies in the form of a<br />

Black and Women's studies share future, panel says<br />

By PHIL EVANS<br />

Daily Collegian Staff Writer<br />

Black studies and women's studies share a common<br />

background of being repressed, and their future<br />

lies in a strong coalition to combat discrimination,<br />

panel representatives told students yesterday at the<br />

Paul Robeson Cultural Center.<br />

!<br />

The panel, moderated by Emily Toth, assistant<br />

professor of English and American studies, directed<br />

its comments to the topic of the intersection of black<br />

and women's studies.<br />

Audrey Rogers, the coordinator of the <strong>University</strong>'s<br />

Women's studies program, said the Women's studies<br />

program suffers from being established in a time of<br />

monetary retrenchment.<br />

"The majority feels we've gone far enough," Rogers<br />

said. "In the real world, women are not making<br />

the strides they think they are."<br />

For example, Rogers said only one woman was<br />

promoted to full professorship at the <strong>University</strong> in<br />

1981.<br />

''Women are like blacks — first hired, first fired,"<br />

Rogers said.<br />

Women's studies faces the problems of an apathet-<br />

20 minutes from Philadelphia<br />

dialogue between Smith and Harley.<br />

"We need to show colleges how they can integrate<br />

the black women's history into other courses in Black<br />

studies," Harley said. For the most part, colleges and<br />

universities have improved in their Black Studies<br />

programs, she said.<br />

"Black women's studies have unleashed a black<br />

woman that black men aren't used to," Jim Stewart<br />

(12th-journalism) said. He said black women now are<br />

very aggressive and suggested that some' kind of<br />

program needs to be formed to prepare black men to<br />

handle this.<br />

In response to Stewart's question Smith said Black<br />

studies courses should deal with this. She said it helps<br />

a lot when black men can realize this and know their<br />

own limits.<br />

Asked if it would be detrimental to the Black<br />

studies and Women's studies programs to combinethem,<br />

Harley said they weren't ready to intersect the<br />

ic student body and a lack of money for the program,<br />

she said. The program suffers because students who<br />

major in other programs may not have time to take<br />

women's study courses as electives, Rogers added.<br />

Pointing to this reality and acknowledging a moral<br />

committment made by the administration, Rogers<br />

said, "The faculty is not behind Women's studies in<br />

any tangible way."<br />

Rogers said the program would offer a 21-credit<br />

minor in the field of Women's studies starting Fall<br />

Term 1983.<br />

Sharon Harley, representing the Afro-American<br />

studies program at the <strong>University</strong> of Maryland,<br />

addressed the causes that women and blacks had<br />

supported together in the United <strong>State</strong>s' history.<br />

Women and blacks shared the title of a "lower<br />

being" because neither could buy or sell propertyor<br />

independently establish themselves, Harley said.<br />

The abolition movement during the Civil War is<br />

evidence of a successful coalition between the two<br />

groups, Harley said.<br />

To successfully integrate women and blacks, Harley<br />

said more blacks must become involved in women's<br />

studies, more women administrators in black<br />

two programs yet. It can be good however to combine<br />

the two programs to attract more people, like last<br />

night's program, she said. . ><br />

"The two programs can be unified and still be<br />

different," Smith said."Black Women's studies<br />

should deal with women and blacks."<br />

James Stewart, director of the Black studies program<br />

at the <strong>University</strong>, asked if the initial dynamism<br />

and creativity of the Black studies movement has<br />

expended itself. Harley.said it is a shame the program<br />

is losing dynamism and pointed out that Black<br />

studies don't have a movement to rely on. ' , ¦<br />

Smith said the activist movement of the sixties and<br />

seventies provided a place for Black studies. Now the<br />

feminist black movement is paving the way for Black<br />

Women's studies.<br />

Harley and Smith were guests at "The Intersection<br />

of Black studies and Women's studies," sponsored by<br />

the <strong>University</strong> Black studies program.<br />

studies and a greater self-awareness of the goals of<br />

each group.<br />

Black feminist Barbara Smith said that the <strong>University</strong><br />

is basically a "white male institution" because it<br />

sends its graduates into the white business world.<br />

People are afraid of the coalition between women<br />

and blacks due to the enormity of sexism and racism<br />

in the world, Smith said.<br />

She pointed to the rise of third world feminism as<br />

proof of the unescapable fact of the struggle for<br />

equality.<br />

James Stewart, director of the <strong>University</strong>'s black<br />

studies program, said the program had also been<br />

created out of the activism of the '60s when "it was<br />

initially a matter of survival."<br />

At the peak of program, black studies was featured<br />

at 600 campuses across the United <strong>State</strong>s. Only about<br />

200 campuses offer such a program now, Stewart<br />

said.<br />

He acknowledged the lack of women in the black<br />

studies program and the possibility of bias in the<br />

present teaching where the role of the black woman is<br />

concerned. ><br />
