Education conference features Pe�rl Bailey

Pearl Bailey

W arid-renowned entertainer Pearl Bailey will be the featured speaker at "Progress, Profes­sionalism, Politics,.Pride . . . and Pearl!," a conference for educators to be held here Oct. 14.

The conference is sponsored by the College of Education chapter of the EMU Alumni Association and will kick off Homecoming weekend. Ac­tivities will begin at 9 a.m. and run until 9:15 p.m., concluding with a cocktail reception, dinner and after-dinner lecture by Bailey.

The program also will feature Carl Pursell, representative of the 2nd U.S. Congressional District; Donald Cameron, ex­ecutive director of the National Education Association; and Dr. Leland B. Jacobs, professor

emeritus of education at Colum­bia University, who are all EMU graduates.

"I see it as a celebration . .. a celebration of the important roles EMU alumni are playing at the state and national levels. Be­ing an educator is extremely im­portant. Being an EMU educator is equally important," said Jim Brunnemer, director of alumni relations.

Bailey was invited to speak at the conference because of her commitment to education. Her early ambition was to be a schoolteacher, but success in a amateur contest changed her direction and launched her into show business. After retiring from a 30-year career of singing in clubs, Broadway shows, films, writing five books, star­ring in her own television show,

winning a special Tony award and an Entertainer of the Year award, and entertaining at the White House more than any other performer except Bob Hope, she began a new career as an international humanitarian.

In 1975, President Gerald Ford appointed Bailey as special advisor to the U.S. Mission in the United Nations. She toured extensively with the purpose of visiting hospitals, orphanages and institutions for the mentally retarded and handicapped, atten­ding schools and ladies' clubs lectures and watching dance groups perform.

Bailey is now a student on the dean's list at Georgetown University, earning a B + average. She holds several honorary degrees, including Doctor of Arts from the Academy of Egypt, Doctor of Law from Seton Hall and Doc­tor of Music from Howard U Diversity.

"She will express in her own way her commitment to educa­tion," said Dr. Scott Wester­man, dean of the College of Education. "And you know she's committed to have gone back to school to get her degree."

During the morning session of the conference, Jacobs will speak on progress in education. Jacobs was awarded an honorary Doctor of Education degree from EMU in 1982 and is recognized as a highly respected teacher, poet, author, pioneer in the field of children's literature and community leader. Jacobs has taught at nearly all levels from a one-room school to a university campus.

After lunch, Cameron will speak on professionalism in education. Cameron holds bachelor's and master's degrees from EMU and was recently ap­pointed executive director of the National Education Association (NEA) after serving as its assis­tant executive director since 1979.

"It's hard to overstate the im­portance of the NEA," Wester­man said. "It's si�nificant that

2 FOCUS EMU

Blind programmer dispels superhuman myth Brian Howay doesn't think of

himself as superhuman, or even as an unusual person. "I'm just a guy who's trying to do my job as efficiently and as productively as possible," he said.

Howay is a programmer I

analyst in the University Com­puting Department here. Also, he is legally blind.

Howay received his first bachelor's degree in psychology from Michigan State University in 1974. For the next three years he worked as a counselor at the Michigan Commission for the Blind Rehabilitation Center. He then attended Wayne State University and received a degree in computer science.

With the help of Jean Byers, an employment specialist with the Commission for the Blind, Howay came to EMU in March 1983 as a temporary employee in computing. He has been a per­manent employee since July.

Howay, as programmer I

analyst for the executive offices, designs, alters, implements and analyzes new computer systems and procedures. Also, he writes, documents, and maintains com­puter programs for the universi­ty community.

Howay has several special pieces of equipment that enable him to use the computer without actually being able to see the terminal. He uses a print magnifier that looks like a small television set. This allows him to read and analyze the printout listings from the computers.

Also, Howay uses a braille­writer to write out all his pro­grams. This device, used much like a typewriter, has six keys that can be combined differently to make raised-point braille let­ters. Howay then transfers his program onto the terminal from the braille cards. This process is

somewhat time consuming and Howay wishes he could type the program directly into the com­puter, bypassing the braille-writer completely.

•

However, this could only be done with the use of a talking terminal, a device that actually vocalizes input. With such a ter­minal, Howay could check his programs as he enters them and receive a printout listing in braille. The Commission for the Blind is in the process of obtain­ing a talking terminal for Howay but it may be some time before he receives it, since it may cost as much as $15,000.

"Sometimes I use a magnify­ing glass and if I scrunch up real close I can read the screen," Howay said. "This new equipment would make me more efficient."

Another piece of equipment Howay sometimes uses is the opticon, which reproduces the actual image of a letter onto the fingertip. Using this machine is incredibly slow, since the prin­tout listings have to be read, literally, letter by letter.

Despite his seemingly remarkable skills, Howay main­tains that he is not unique in his field. He noted that there are many sight impaired people who hold jobs normally held by sighted people. With the use of the proper equipment, he asserts, blind people have the ability to be just as efficient and productive as their sighted counterparts.

The Michigan Commission for the Blind, a division of the Michigan Department of Labor, specializes in assisting the legally blind in several different ways to enable them to become wholly functioning members of society.

In Michigan, the Commis­sion's job placement program is run by four people, one of whom is Jean Byers. She is

Academic Advising for Winter Semester

Though Fall classes have just begun, it isn't "too early for students and faculty to think about academic advising for winter semester. From the department's standpoint, en­couraging students to see their faculty advisors early will help ease the tremendous demand for advising at the time registration begins. Students who plan to meet with their advisors early will not only avoid long lines and long waiting periods, but also will have time to explore various course and program op­tions. Undecided students, business freshmen, pre-nursing and pre-OT students and students on the PASS program will find advisors available in the Academic Services Center. All other students with declared majors will seek advising in their major department.

50 percent Refund Just a reminder that Tuesday,

Sept 27 is the last day for

'

students to reduce course load and still receive a 50 percent re­fund. September 28 will be the start of the automatic withdrawal period.

September 27 is also the last day to declare the "Pass/Fail" option.

Spring/Summer Faculty In­Service Training

As in the past, during Spring/Summer, 1983, several faculty participated as faculty interns in Academic Services. This was part of an increasing effort to provide faculty with more intensive in-service training in academic advising. Those who participated this year were Peggy Steig (HPERD), Dave Geherin (English Language and Literature), Tom Bushey (reacher Education), and Mary Phipps (Music). Also, the Military Science department pro­vided summer advisors: Cpts. Dave Klubeck and Mark Ron­coli. Our thanks to all of these people for their participation. We hope that the experience proved as rewarding and infor­mative for them as it was for us.

responsible for placement in eight counties, a nwnber which will soon increase to 35 counties.

"Most employers are apt to take someone who :s qualified for the job," Byers said. "But occasionally I run into someone who knows nothing about blind-

ness and is petrified. I bring in someone to talk with them and soon they find out blind people are just people," she added.

Once clients, as Howay, are placed, their cases are closed, However, Byers drops by every three months or so to check on their progress; to see if they

need additional equipment and to make sure the employer is satisfied with the client's work.

As most blind workers, employed in typically "sight­required" jobs, Howay dispels the superhuman myth. "I just feel very fortunate to have had these opportunities," he said.

Pursell will lead the afternoon session of the conference, speak­ing on politics in education with a panel of Washington, D.C. politicians.

"Politics is the business of distributing resources," said Westerman. "As an educator, it is crucial to understand the political process. As teachers, we have to be politicians, too."

Pursell earned a bachelor's degree in history and political science and a master's degree in educational administration from EMU and in 1974 he was honored by the University as a Distinguished Alumnus. He has been in public life for nearly 15 years, serving as county commis­sioner and state senator before becoming a U.S. congressman. He has represented the 2nd Con­gressional District for seven years and is a member of the powerful House Appropriations Committee and the subcommit­tee which formulates education appropriations.

"The largest number of our alumni are educators,'' said Westerman. "We want to re­mind them of their significance . .. So many people in key positions in education are Eastern graduates. This is a chance to bring them together and renew their 'mi,sion' as educators."

The cost of the conference is $20 for EMU alumni and $30 for non-alumni. The fee includes lunch and dinner.

and the discus for four years. In the shot he put 53'-101/2" for his best mark, finishing second in the sectionals. He threw the disc 143'-31/2" and finished first in the sectionals.

Cosentino's Hudson Valley Community College team in 1980 has a 9-1 record which enabled them to earn a berth in the Coca-Cola Bowl to deter­mine the national championship in the junior college ranks.

"Towson State College in Maryland was interested in me but I wanted to play at a Divi­sion I School," Cosentino commented.

' 'When I first visited EMU, I knew that their record was bad," Cosentino said. "I just didn't realize the reputation that they had had. Begin with the players and working with them, I found out that us being losers was untrue."

In football, Cosentino played offensive guard and defensive tackle. He was named to the All-Greater Rochester All-Star team and was picked first-team All-State in New York his senior year.

The bowl game was played at the Unidome in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He is pleased about his
