EXAMINING CHRIST
FROM A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE
By Kimberly Dillon

One gets the impression when talking with Dr. Mary Hembrow Snyder that she is deeply committed to what she is saying. Probably, because she is. This soft-spoken, yet determined, feminist has spent most of her 41 years trying to answer "What does it mean to say I believe Jesus Christ is the Savior in a suffering world?" Pursuing an answer to that question, Snyder left the Sisters of Mercy, Diocese of Buffalo in 1981, where she had been a nun for 15 years, and began a doctoral program in theology at the University of Saint Michael's College in Toronto. As part of her search, Mary Hembrow Snyder, who wanted to write a book before she turned 40, researched Rosemary Radford Ruether, the first woman to write a feminist interpretation of Christ. That research became a book entitled, "The Christology of Rosemary Radford Ruether: A Critical Introduction." The book was submitted to the publisher one day before Snyder's 40th birthday. One of the things Ruether discovered is that women's experience of God has not been considered valuable in Christian tradition. Snyder agrees, "So much of women's experiences has just been discounted," she said. Also, in their research, both Ruether and Snyder found certain areas where Christ had been used negatively against women, the poor and the Jews.

She's just saying that, as humans, we should pay attention to what feminists are saying about how Christ is being used against women and others. "We have a responsibility to one another for the way we live out our understanding of who Jesus was.

A scene depicting campus life in the 1940s.

John and Pat Baird working on the Eutharses mural. It took two weeks of intensive work to return the piece to its natural state.

For years, students have passed by, congregated in front of, leaned against and, in many cases, politely taken for granted some of Mercyhurst's greatest treasures the murals in Old Main. These large-aslife works of art not only visually tell us about Mercyhurst's heritage; they are, themselves, a part of history. Mercyhurst's murals were painted between the 1930s and 1940s. It was during this period that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, in order to get people back to work after the Great Depression, hired unemployed artists to paint murals on public buildings. Most of these murals, as you might have guessed, showed people working and being productive. Three of the seven murals gracing Old Main's hallways portray scenes from

everyday campus life. As well they should, they were painted by students who knew their subject matter extremely well. For example, the two murals in the office of external affairs (formerly the student lounge) show life in the dorms and a typical day's activities. Three other murals depict various scenes taken from religion. "Women of the Bible," done by Helene Arents '52, shows the enthroned figure of Mary standing on the world. On each side of her are medallions representing Esther and Judith, two women of the Old Testament who prefigured the Mother of God. The mural is located by the Bishop's Parlor. On the opposite wall was a scene "Joyful Mysteries," painted by Jean Brigham '49. A Christmas card created from the mural

is all that exists of the mural today. "The Farewell Discourse/' painted by Roxana Downing '53, is a scene following the Last Supper when Christ told St. Thomas, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life/' In this mural, Christ is surrounded by his 11 faithful disciples. This mural is located near Room 115 in Old Main. A mural depicting the symbolism of Mercyhurst was painted by Mareanne Cole '53. It showed the Mercyhurst shield encased in tryptic (a three-panel painting separated by a frame or part of a wall) for the center of interest. A border showing symbols of the spiritual and corporal works of mercy has been worked out in grisaille (a single color designed to produce a three-dimensional effect). Symbols of the four cardinal virtues on the corners of the border completed the design. This mural was destroyed by corrosion. On the opposite wall was a mural entitled, "Our Lady of Mercy," which depicted a group of saints noted for their works of mercy surrounding the Blessed Virgin, who was holding the child Jesus on her lap. It was painted by Mary Elizabeth Stanny'50. One of the newest murals to grace Old Main's walls is a black perspective painted by the Association of Black Collegians. Located across from Room 213, it shows black heros such as Martin Luther King, George Washington Carver and Jesse Jackson, and is entitled "People Linked to Save Humanity." Because of their historical and artistic significance, when Judy Wieczorek '61, associate professor of sociology, noticed that the condition of the murals was deteriorating, she took action. She brought the idea of restoring the murals to Mercyhurst President Dr. William P. Carvey, who also felt the murals were too important not to be saved for future generations to inherit. "Here is something that is part of our history as an institution, and it was disappearing," Wieczorek explained. One work in particular caught her eye as being in

special need of attention. It was "Eutharses," painted in 1945 by Gloria (Middleton) Amidon '46, general manager of the Erie Philharmonic. Eutharses is a Greek word meaning "good hope" or "good courage." Amidon, an art major at Mercyhurst, painted the mural during her junior year as a thesis project. At the time, she didn't think it would be around 45 years later. She and mentor, Sr. AngelOn each side of Maty are Esther and Judith, two women who ica Cummings, Mercyhurst's first prefigured the Mother of God, painted by Helene Arents. art professor and molder of its fine arts curriculum, decided the theme of the piece should be "the Mercolors in all their various shadings.

MERCYHURST GRAD BECOMES ERIE 'S FIRST WOMAN

Back in the fall of 1964, Joyce Savocchio '65 was considered a long shot. She was running for president of her senior class at Mercyhurst. It wouldn't be the last time she would be a long-shot candidate. Joyce, in 1964, was merely a lowly dayhop, living off-campus in Erie at her parents' home. Back in those days, day-hops didn't get much respect or elected to anything. High campus office was reserved for the dormitory girls, the die-hard campus residents. But Joyce recalls that there were warring factions among the dorm girls that autumn so long ago. And she managed to use their bickering and her emerging political savvy to her advantage. As a result, she pulled off a stunning upset to become president of the Class of 1965, no mean feat for just a day-hop. That victory was first in her string of political upsets that would culminate in Joyce Savocchio getting herself elected as the first woman mayor of the City of Erie. "Coming out of a co-ed school (Strong Vincent High School in Erie), the all-girl concept of Mercyhurst was different to me," the mayor recalled. "But I found the classes intellectually stimulating and I found myself actually becoming a pseudointellectual. It was also different being a day-hop with all the resident students. But, being a day-hop was what led to me being elected class president! "The two factions in the dorm, well, that did it for me, with one faction supporting we day-hoppers. But, aside from the politics of the day, those were quieter, gentler times. Mercyhurst offered new dimensions in culture and education for me. That, along with the religious atmosphere, did so much for me and served me well in all that followed in my life. "Because of Mercyhurst, I followed an intellectual pursuit and went into teach-

ing."

As a teacher, Joyce found herself elected president of the Erie Education Association (EEA), a powerful group of 1,000-plus Erie school teachers. Then, eight years ago, in another longshot campaign, she became the first woman member of Erie City Council, a body that had been known for a century as the "City Fathers." Last spring, as a dark horse candidate in a Democratic primary election field of six that included the heavy hitters of city government such as Acting Erie Mayor Patricia Liebel '53 Savocchio pulled off another major upset to take the Democratic nomination. The November general election seemed almost anti-climatic as she breezed to victory against Republican Stan Prazer. But things weren't always politics and intellect for Savocchio. For instance, when she was 13, she was "more into Elvis than running for anything," says the new mayor's life-long best friend Rita Cappello '64. "We had Hound Dog banks, DA haircuts, everything," according to Cappello, the woman who engineered the historic election of Erie's first woman mayor. But Cappello, who served as Savocchio's campaign manager and closest advisor during the hectic spring and fall campaign, said Joyce spent most of her adult life interested in politics. "After those Elvis Presley days, her interest changed to politics. She was always politically motivated," Cappello said. Joyce was born in Erie, Nov. 9,1942, the daughter of Daniel and Esther Leone Savocchio. While the family lived above the Brown Avenue Food Market, operated by Joyce Savocchio, Erie's first zuornan mayor. Joyce's father, she attended Irving Elemen-

She went on to Mercyhurst, then the University of Pittsburgh and, finally, Edinboro University for her school administrator's papers. She began her teaching career at East High School, then participated in the Erie School District's unique "Project Individual" program before returning to Strong Vincent to teach. After serving as president of the EEA, she became assistant principal at Strong Vincent. "In her early years, I guess she was pretty shy," recalls her mother. "I guess it was about the fifth grade when she sort of took hold of herself. "We lived upstairs of the store, and she would come home from school and go upstairs and do her homework or whatever had to be done. She knew where we

were if she needed us." Mrs. Savocchio said she also considered her daughter "maybe a little more mature" than kids her own age. "When she was maybe eight or nine, she'd always be watching television news, taking an interest in what was going on, I don't think she wanted to be mayor then, she was always talking about teaching." Mrs. Savocchio recalls her daughter "began talking about teaching" when she was attending Roosevelt Junior High School. "Then she got into that Kennedy debate in high school and I began to think that something else was in store for her somewhere along the way. She began to love history, she would live her history and that's what made her a good teacher." The new mayor's mother said her daughter was fiercely independent; "But then again, she always knew we were there if she needed us. We' reextremely proud of her." "I remember that Kennedy debate well," Savocchio said. "I was Kennedy, someone else was Nixon. When I won, I started to think maybe I could run for something like

"It just wasn't something I thought about before then," Savocchio said. "It was then I decided I would try my best to do what was right, what had to be done." Her longtime friend, Rita Cappello, said she and Joyce began entertaining thoughts about the fifth floor City Hall office occupied by Louis Tullio for so many years, later in Savocchio's second term on Joyce with her campaign manager and the council. best friend Rita Cappello during the "We were both so pocelebration after Joyce won the primary litically motivated, it just mayoral election. naturally came up as an option, something to talk City Council.

It was a group of school age kids from St. Luke's. They charged past me on their way to the red room. Once they were all inside, the group (4 and 5 year olds) that was already in the room formed a line inside the door. The little boy at the front of the line braced himself against the door frame as his comrades pushed forward.

programs are beginning to take shape. These include support groups for single women, brown bag networking lunches and a unique mentoring program. "Housing and jobs still remain at the top of our priorities," says Sr. Maura Smith, Superior of the Sisters of Mercy, who founded GROW. "We will be studying these issues and will call on the Sisters of Mercy of America to help us in Erie provide answers to help alleviate the housing needs, especially with respect to single parents. We need to dream and make that dream a reality by solving basic economic problems that create a trap for many women." Tish Donze agrees. "All that the women who drop by the GROW center need is a chance. Ninety-eight percent of those I see aren't misusing the established government systems. They are trying very hard to get their lives together and get out of the system. The programs coming out of GROW can help them do that." Sr. Phyllis Marie McDonald, assistant director of GROW, recently returned from the Southwest where she worked with women on a Navajo reservation. She sees the problems of the Erie women who visit the GROW center as similar to women on the reservation. "It is a basic problem of self-esteem and empowering these women to grab hold of their own futures," according to Sr. Phyllis. "Like the women on the reservation, these women have not realized their own strength and potential, and their own leadership abilities. We need to help them help themselves and train them to take over the programs they help create." "We've only begun to scratch the surface," adds Sr. Maura. "Our hope is that the GROW center will live up to its name: a place where women learn and grow." Corrine Halperin-Egan '80 is the executive director of the Northwestern Pennsylvania Area Labor Management Council. She has been a member of GROW s steering committee since 1988.

How GROW got storted

The Sisters of Mercy of Erie decided to act as a catalyst in developing an advocacy program for women, especially the poor, based on the U.S. Bishops statement: "A call for economic justice." Contacting the many diverse agencies and organizations that serve women, including existing women's groups, a community wide interest coalesced with the idea of empowering women so they not only receive the services that are available but, more important, learn to help themselves. A steering committee spearheaded by Congregation Superior Sr. Maura Smith and consisting of approximately 20 women from a cross-section of agencies and groups began to meet in October 1988. Quickly the group sprang to action, holding a series of community Town Hall meetings that allowed dialogue among leaders from the various organizations and agencies which made up the steering committee. These meetings also included many women who were presently taking advantage of such services as well as those who were unable to do so because of barriers that exist to receiving services. Following the Town Hall meetings, the steering committee broke into task forces to research programs and areas of concern raised by the women at the meetings. Task forces formed on day care, housing, transportation, coordination of benefits for education and job training, medical treatment, legal services, advocacy and single women under the age of 60 who are alone. The group became convinced that, by working together, they could make a difference in providing needed services for women. Consequently, a program to help women on welfare seek job training through the Job Training Partnership Act was proposed. The steering committee was instrumental in helping the Benedictine Sisters receive the grant and set up a single point of contact for the program. This grass roots organization, the steering committee decided, was the program's strongest point and adopted the name Grass Roots Opportunities for Women, or GROW. As the groups began to research their areas of concern, it became apparent that there was a need for a centralized resource center that could be used for counseling, support groups, seminars and workshops, and other activities. Plans began to center around setting up an office and hiring staff to implement the programs that would be developed. The Sisters of Mercy found an office at 918 Peach St. and in the true spirit of volunteerism, members of the steering committee and the congregation worked to ready the space for occupancy. At the same time, Patricia (Tish) Donze came on staff as executive director and Sr. Phyllis Marie McDonald as assistant director. The remainder of the staff is volunteers from both the Sisters of Mercy and the general community. The GROW center opened on June 29,1989.

Mercyhunst opens window of communication with gorillas

By Karen McGuire'92
"When you realize the value of all life, you dwell less on what is past and concentrate more on the preservation of the future/'... written in block letter on the finalpage of DianFossey'spersonal journal. In a world threatened by extinction, humans are starting to realize the importance of harmony amongst the species. Several humans are making great efforts to break the barrier of communication and increase awareness of our distant relative, the gorilla. In September, Mercyhurst College presented the motion picture, "Gorillas in the Mist." The movie served as a introduction to a lecture by Joanne Tanner, research assistant and representative of the Gorilla Foundation (a gorilla research center in Woodside, CA). The lecture entitled, "Communicating with Animals: Crossing Cultures with Koko," attracted an audience of approximately 250 people of all ages to the Mercyhurst campus. "I wanted Joanne to speak to the college community because, from a biologist's point of view, the gorilla is a window for humans to learn what life is all about. The more windows we look through, the better off we humans are," said Dr. Lewis Lutton, associate professor of biology at Mercyhurst. "By studying gorillas, we can learn a lot about our own existence," he said. The movie, "Gorillas in the Mist," about Dian Fossey's life with mountain gorillas has done a great service for these endangered primates. The film has brought the plight of the gorilla into the hearts and minds of many and dramatically demonstrates that one person can make a difference. Joanne Tanner is one of those people trying to make a difference. "My study of gorillas has helped me to understand who I am and where I came from," she said during her presentation. "My work with gorillas Koko and Michael has added focus to my life and has even led me to make a career change." Tanner plans to leave her career as a classical violinist and violin teacher to pursue studies in anthropology. Through the work of Tanner and others at the Gorilla Foundation, much has been learned about gorillas. Koko and Michael use sign language the familiar hand speech of the deaf to communicate their needs, thoughts and feelings. The two have even created some unique

signs of their own to suit their individual personalities. Indeed, the communication barrier has been broken and a whole world of understanding left open to be discovered. Koko and Michael have used sign language to make a point, to joke, to express their displeasure and even to lie their way out of trouble. For example, one day, Koko removed a chopstick from a drawer, then sneaked over to a window and tried to poke a hole through the screen. Discovered, she pretended to smoke the chopstick. When the researcher took the chopstick and demanded to know what was going on, Koko responded with the sign for smoke," followed by the sign for mouth." Translated this means, "I was smoking." At eight years of age, Koko had exploited language the way human beings do, proving that her breed shares sensitivities commonly held to be the prerogative of people. "Tanner's research in animal communication shows that when you get past the speech problems, animals can communicate complex thoughts, create ideas and words, use humor and be deceitful. This tells us to what extent the human mind is unique or akin to our brethren," said Dr. Lutton. Now that the window of communication with gorillas is open, the key to the primates' survival and, perhaps even our own, may rely on a whole new world of understanding just beginning to be discovered.

NEW FORMAT FOR WMCE, 88.5

This October, residents on The Hill, like Thoreau, heard a different drummer. Last year's classic rock format was revised to include programming for Erie that didn't exist anywhere else. The new format includes religious, cultural and educational programming, as well as blasts from the past featuring an "Oldies but Goodies" show and classics from the Golden Age of Radio such as Abbott & Costello and Jack Benny. There is also a Mercyhurst hour that features various college faculty and student activities and an international music segment. According to Tony Zgela '91, station manager, the new format "gives students a chance to appreciate a variety of programming while learning the broadcast profession." The goal of the change is to meet Federal Communication Commission licensing requirements and community needs as well as to give students practical training in a real radio station. For a program guide, write to John Leisering '81, WMCE general manager, c/o Mercyhurst College, Baldwin, Room 86, Erie, PA 16546.

RESEARCH GRANT TO STUDY LYME DISEASE

o determine h o w a b u n d a n t deer ticks carrying Lyme disease are in the areas of Erie County, the Erie County Department of Health gave Mercyhurst a $3,800 grant to assist in a deer tick surveillance program. Dr. Michael Campbell, assistant professor of biology, says Mercyhurst is working in conjunction with other area colleges to determine the number and locations of ticks carrying the Lyme disease. Mercyhurst biology majors, supervised by Lisa Danko and Mike Campbell, are collecting ticks in South Millcreek, Summit, Greene, Waterford and LeBoeuf townships. 'This grant serves as an excellent opportunity for students to

become involved with a real life problem/' said Campbell. Ironically, this grant comes at a time when one of Mercyhurst's o w n is stricken with the disease. Paul Iddings, assistant professor of theatre, was diagnosed as having the disease over a year ago. Iddings, who was first unaware of the disease afflicting him, is now paralyzed from the mid-chest down. Through therapy at both Hamot Medical Center and the Great Lakes Rehabilitation Hospital, Iddings is training to live independently with his physical limitations. Those wishing to get in touch with Paul can write him at Erie Independence House, 956 West 2 nd St., Erie, PA, 16505.

Picnic fare included 6 foot submarine sandwiches, potato salad, chips, cookies and plenty of beverages. The picnic was a family affair with several alums bringing their children (future Mercyhurst alums?). There was also music and games for those who were brave enough to test the bat against the pitching arm of Chris Fraser '87 or Tom Dore '81. One guest, a graduate of the University of Dayton, was especially impressed that Mercyhurst has such an organization and that so many fun-loving alums participated. Watch your mail for future 10-Year Club events. of Cleveland Party Boat. Approximately 30 people from the Cleveland area attended the event. Alumni enjoyed an afternoon of cruising on the lake along with a sit-down brunch. Several lucky attendees were the recipients of prizes that were awarded at the end of the afternoon. Attending from the college were Dr. William P. Garvey, president; Gary Bukowski, director of institutional advancement; Dr. Robert Cisek, director of the business division; and Bonnie Clark, director of alumni relations.

Another new event this year was the wine tasting demonstration, presented by Michael Barnes, assistant professor of hotel restaurant and institutional management (HRIM).

Credit should also be given to HRIM students, who prepared and served a special Alumni Board recognition dinner and an elegant president's reception for special anniversary classes. This year, alumni were given an option of attending the formal awards dinner or a 5th Quarter pizza party. Approximately 80 people, mostly young alumni, attended the pizza party, which was hosted by the 10-Year Club at the Laker Inn. The awards dinner was attended by about 200 alumni.

Career Resource Center to begin operation The office of alumni relations, in cooperation with the office of career services, is beginning a networking system for alumni who are looking for jobs. This service, called the Mercyhurst College Career Resource Center, will operate strictly as a resource center. It will not act as a placement office or make recommendations to employers. The purpose of the resource center is to provide information to alumni about known job openings. If you are aware of position openings within your company or are looking for a position, you may contact the office of alumni relations. We will send you a "Job Card" that lists specific position openings or will pass your information on to others seeking employment. Additionally, if you would be interested in becoming a host/hostess in your area, please notify the alumni office. Hosts/ hostesses act as a contact for alumni or students coming to a new area to introduce them to the city and, hopefully, to other alumni in the area. With over 6,000 Mercyhurst alumni, we are now in a position to

provide aid to our fellow alums whether it be in the form of job-hunting or "welcome" services. Your participation in this networking system will ensure its success.

THE CORPUS OF JESUS (shown above) was designed and sculpted by William 20 Roger Clark, Mercyhurst adjunct faculty member. The figure of Christ stands about 26 8 feet from head to toe and hangs in The Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America's Word of God Church in Inchon, South Korea. It is constructed of steel reinforcement rods that were cut and heated into individual shapes then welded into place. The 27 individual rods symbolically represent the many members that make up the body of Christ. The cross is constructed of reinforced steel. Special supports secure the work, 27 which took 15 months to make.
