Lecorchick Leaves College

Yoko Appointed Acting The Countdown Continues

Sports Information Head
By Karen Merkle
Jim LeCorchick, Mercyhurst's
Sports Information Director, has
departed the college as of Mon-
day, February 13.
Taking his place as acting direc-
tor is junior communications ma-
jor, Greg Yoko. He will hold the
position until June, when a final
decision will be made. No decision
has-been made as to who will
assume LeCorchick's |gold
coaching duties, k

mation Director was designed to

give exposure to sporting events

LeCorchick has held the posi-
tion since August of 1982 .when
he'replacedlnterim director Bob
Shreve. 7 ^W T ^ V W
According to Mercy hurst Presi-
dent Dr. William P. Garvey,.
LeCorchick's departure was the
result of a mutual agreement bet-
ween the administration and
LeCorchick himself.
* 'There was a general agree-
ment that this (position) wasn't
Jim's cup of tea," Dr. Garvey ex-
plained. "We were not satisfied
and neither was he."
"Jim's a reporter, an an-
nouncer. He just doesn't have the
aptitude or the interest in the
other aspects of the (Sports Infor-
mation Director's) job," Dr.
Garvey continued. \
Athletic Director Len Cyterski
agreed, saying, "I feel disap-
pointed that we're losing Jim. We
have discussed j this since I took
over my position on January 2,
and he didn't feel happy here."
The decision is "the best one
for the institution and Mr. LeCor-
chick," Cyterski added. -

However, another ad-
ministrative official at Mercy hurst
commented, "He (LeCorchick)
was tired on Monday. It was com-
ing on . . . a lack of job descrip-
tion perhaps." 1
After being unable to reach
jz
LeCorchick by telephone at home
and at his office, The* Merciad
contacted him in person. LeCor-
chick adamantly refused to
schedule a time for an interview,
and preceded to shut his former
office door in a Merciad staff
member's face. Therefore,
LeCorchick was unavailable for
comment at press time.
Yoko assumed the director's
duties Monday *afternoon, i when
Dr. Garvey informed him of the
decision.
"I was pleasantly surprised that
I was chosen," Yoko said. "It's
somethingj that I've always
wanted to do."
"We've been impressed with
the job Greg has done-for The
Merciad," Dr. Garvey said. "He
knows the college and he knows
Laker sports very well."
Cyterski said the athletic staff is
looking forward to working with
Greg, calling him "a young,

because of class time mandated by
the state, Palmer said.
The change is also because of
the extra five minutes allotted for
people * to walk to St. Mark's
Center, Palmer said. L»

The college president said that
the hike is comprised of $360 for
tuition and room rate increases of
$90 for dorm dwellers and $100
for apartment residents.
It represents an approximate in-
crease of eight percent, about the
national college average, he ex-
plained. The additional funds will
be used primarily for salary in-
creases* financial aid, fringe
benefits and utility costs.
Dr. Garvey said that although
$100,000 was originally pegged
for student aid use, the ad-
ed their financial aid programs,
yet the college has raised charges
each year.
"Hie kids have had to make up
the difference,";he said, and this
has brought about a need for ad-
ditional institutional aid. "If we
didn't do this, many kids would
have to drop out of school."
"We're keenly aware and sen-
sitive to the problems of our

added.

: "The j real debate is," he ex-

However, Dr. Garvey said he does
not want this to happen, commen-

Article ^Five Revised
Another constitution revision
proposal was accepted at last Sun-
day's MSG meeting. Along with
the amendment that defines
voting power was a stipulation to
adhere to the current MSG con-
stitution through the remainder of
the year. \
^The updated article number 5
of the MSG fconstitution now
states that; there will one voting
member representing each of the
commuter, resident, and depart-
mental areas along with three
freshmen representatives and one
vote from any organization pro-
moting racial, religious or cultural
understanding at Mercyhurst. In-
troduced on the floor, but tabled
for future discussion was the mo-
tion to accept the Association of
Black Collegians as an organiza-
tion as described by the revisions
ammended to article number S. It
was tabled because the constitu-
tional revision committee has not
yet established the new procedures
necessary to accept an organiza-
tion into MSG. As a result, a
stipulation was accepted to com-
gpkte the year under the current
7 MSG constitution and allow the
revised constitution to go into ef-
fect fafter the officers for the
1984-85 academic' year are elected.
