‘Saved by the Bell’s’ Mr. Belding to visit
St. Bonaventure University
D
ennis Haskins, better known as Mr. Belding from “Saved by the
Bell,” will discuss his interest in acting and how it became a career
in a fun-filled, interactive performance at 8 p.m., Wednesday, Oct.
20, in St. Bonaventure University’s Reilly Center Arena.
Doors will open at 7 p.m. for the 8 p.m. show. Public seating will be
available in the red section, but students can access the floor and bleach-
ers with their student ID. The arena will be set up with the stage facing
the tunnel entrance, in a half-arena set-up for a more intimate experience.
Haskins began taking acting classes in college when his baseball coach
suggested that it would be an easy “A” to improve his grade point average.
After taking the class, Haskins realized he enjoyed acting, and the rest is his-
tory.
Haskins’ first acting job was on the premiere episode of “Dukes of
Hazard.” After that, he worked with a small theater group playing a role in
the musical comedy “Angry House Wives.”
Haskins eventually found his key role after a friend informed him of auditions for Disney’s “Good
Morning Miss Bliss.” Producers were looking for someone to play the role of a high school principal.
Haskins, a towering 6’6” was a perfect fit.
Ironically, before the show even got off its feet, it was cancelled, but went on to become the ’90s hit series
“Saved by the Bell.” The NBC series followed six high school students through their adventures and rela-
tionships during their teen-age years. Haskins played the role of Principal Belding at Bayside High School in
California.
The event is sponsored by the Office of Student Activities.

Wheelchair Dancers Headline St. Bona’s
Celebration of Disability Awareness
Nationally known stand-up and sit-down wheelchair dancers featured on Good Morning America, CBS This Morning and
CNN will highlight St. Bonaventure University’s celebration of Disability Awareness Month in October.
The Dancing Wheels performance will be held at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 15, in the Rigas Family Theater of The Regina A. Quick
Center for the Arts. Admission is $8 for students, $15 for subscribers, and $18 for the general public.
The month–long celebration will also feature a panel discussion on disabilities and
the arts at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 14, in the Rigas Theater. The symposium will be
moderated by Joseph LoSchaivo, executive director of The Quick Center for the Arts,
with panelists Mary-Verdi Fletcher from Dancing Wheels and Susan Shie, a legally
blind visual artist. Following the panel discussion a reception will follow in the muse-
um atrium.
Also planned is a performance by the percussion group “Beats Me,” made up of
individuals with disabilities. The performance is planned for sometime near the end of
October and will be held at the Hickey Dining Hall.
Nancy Matthews, coordinator of Disability Support Services and Academic
Intervention at the University, led the year-long planning of the events, which are open
to on-campus and off-campus communities. “We are excited to celebrate the abilities of
individuals with disabilities this October. Too frequently we focus on the disabling
aspects of disability, not the wonderful abilities that so many of the individuals with
disabilities possess,” said Matthews.
This year’s sponsors include The Quick Center for the Arts, the Diversity Action
Committee and the Teaching and Learning Center. The events will be held on both the Olean and Hilbert campuses, in hopes to
extend disability awareness to those involved in The Buffalo Center who are not able to attend activities scheduled on the main
campus. These activities are keeping in the Franciscan values of discovery, community and individual worth, according to Dr.
Barbara Trolley, the coordinator of the student art contest as well as a member of the planning committee.
Trolley hopes that everyone will set aside time to take part in at least one activity or event throughout the month of October.
Trolley also went on to say, “It’s easy to get caught up in each day’s hectic schedule, and put off attending University programs.
However, it is important to set aside time to renew our professional and personal growth, and examine our daily activities as they
relate to the higher values and standards put forth by our University.”
