Jo Clare Hartsig at the Bethlehem Center City Ministries Emergency Shelter, where students cook meals for the homeless. Students Foster Awareness Of City's Homeless By William J. Johnson Lehigh University Writers' Group Kelly Buller, a sophomore pre-med student, didn't expect much student response last term when she started a movement to aid Bethlehem's homeless. But after she spoke to all the student groups on campus, volunteers emerged in droves. Then, when she scheduled a meeting of volunteers on Super Bowl Sunday and 80 students showed up. she knew things were rolling. At last count, more than 200 Lehigh volunteers had come forward. The students began forming committees, planning fund-raisers and cooking meals for the homeless at Bethlehem's Center City Ministries. The students' hard work is in evidence this week, which has been designated Homelessness Awareness Week at Lehigh, during which they hope to raise both money and understanding of the plight of the area's homeless through lectures, concerts, and informational meetings. The Rev. Jo Clare Hartsig. a United Church of Christ minister and executive director of Center City Ministries. says the increased activity among Lehigh and other area college students is a welcome opportunity. "Students at Lehigh and people from our neighbor hood and people who are homeless can interact and learn a lot about each other," says Hartsig. "They just check the stereotypes at the door." Homelessness Awareness Week events include a free public lecture by the Rev. John Stienbruck of Luther "Students, people from our neighborhood and people who are homeless can interact and learn a lot about each other. They just check the stereotypes at the door." --Rev. Jo Clare Hartsig Place. Washington. D.C, today at 4 p.m. in Neville I and a benefit concert by singer-songwriter STYVE on Thursday. April 6 at 8 p.m. in Club 31. An information booth was set up in the University Center on Monday, and a faculty-student talent show was held Tuesday night. The students are also selling T-shirts with the group's credo emblazoned on them: "It's All A Dream We Share; Without Love in the Dream. It Will Never Come True." Continued On Page 8> Carrier Named For Flexible Benefits By Robert W. Fisher Lehigh University Writers' Group Aetna Life Insurance Co. has been selected as the carrier for the university's new flexible benefits program, according to Edward Maclosky, director of human resources. The flexible benefits plan, which allows employees to select a mix of benefits that more closely mirrors their personal situation, will take effect July 1. Faculty and staff members will receive the first of a series of newsletters describing the new plan this week, and enrollment sessions will be held beginning in mid-April, Maclosky said. Aetna will provide medical, dental, and life insurance for the university, according to Maclosky. A decision has not yet been made on a carrier for long- term disability insurance. Aetna was selected from among four finalists that were invited for campus visits March 14 and 15. A panel including Brian Brockway and Roger Simon representing the Faculty Compensation Committee, Sherrill Bushner and Jennifer Volchko representing the Employee Relations Advisory Committee. John Woltjen, vice president for administration and treasurer, and human resources staff heard presentations from Aetna. Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co., CIGNA, and Prudential Life Insurance Co. of America. "The consensus was that Aetna offered the best combination of price and services," Maclosky said. University representatives visited Aetna's claim center in Allentown and compared notes with other institutions served by Aetna — including Columbia, Princeton and Cornell universities — before finalizing the decision, he said. Rauch Center Groundbreaking Friday A formal groundbreaking ceremony for the Rauch Business Center, new headquarters for the College of Business and Economics, will be held at 11:15 a.m., Friday, April 7. All members of the University community are welcome to attend the ceremony, which will take place at the building site, the former site of Taylor Stadium. The building is named for Philip Rauch, '33, former chairman of the board of the Parker Hannifin Corp., who will participate in the ceremony. The $17.8 million project is due for completion in August 1990.
