'by Julie Sveda Depending on weather condi- tions. the Lowell Thomas. Com- . municalions Center should be com- pleted by January 1987, according to Edward Waters, vice president • for administration and finance. ''Everything is in order now. The only kicker is the weather," Waters said. Construction of the center has been mired·by complications and delays since its groundbreaking in May 1984. Among those complications was the discovery of an underground strec\rri. This led to changes in the proposed site of the building and design modifications to increase the building's support. Although the original estimate of the center's cost was $3 million, that figure has grown lo $3.5 million, Waters said. • Waters added that the college has already begun making decisions about later construction details in order to save time and money in the future. "We arc working with architects on details such as floor tiles. Though these things arc con-. siderably down the line, we'll get a leg up on that so (here are no fur- ther delays/' said Waters. Currently, a plastic covering i~ being put up section by section to keep the inside of the building warm. - Waters said this is necessary because concrete cannot be poured -- below a certain temperature, and • the heal must be maintained while it is drying. Cox.: New meeting rooms roposed for campus center by Regina Rossi Campus Center classrooms 248 and 248A may be converted into conference rooms for stu- dent clubs and organizations, according to Gerard Cox, vice president for student affairs. Cox said he has submitted a proposal to eliminate classes in the rooms in order to free them - for student use. "The issue of space needs to be addressed," ·Cox said. • If • the classes can be ·eliminated, the rooms could • possibly be renovated to create smaller. seperate office rooms • • and a genera'! meetin!i room, Cox added . The two rooms are currently divided only by a sli~ing door. This can be opened to create one large room. The rooms are. now used for meetings at night, but are often less than half full. In addition, construction is now underway on the new faculty dining room, to be located on the first noor of the Campus Center .. Cox said he· hopes the dining room will be completed soon after spring break, which is in March. • "The faculty for a number of years have been asking for place where they could meet and eat," Cox said. ,.,-The dining room will utilize space • formerly occupied by . Special Services. Cox said the space was ideal because of its · proximity to the kitchen. Space problem ( studied by Regina Rossi The college i~ currently at~ tempting to solve the Special Services program's space pro- bl_ems, according to Gerard • Cox, vice president for student affairs. • .• Cox said he has met with con- cerned students and Diane Per- • ·riera,·-director: of special ser- •vices, 10 "explore together some longe range solution to meet - their needs." • Special Services recently mov- ed from the ground noor of the Campus Center 10 an of- fice on the first noor of Cham- pagnat, recently vacated by the health service, The health ser- vice is now located in Bierne · House. • . Special services students and staff members have complain- ed that the new office is 100 small.to accomodate wheelchair . students and that ii eliminates the ~.tudents' privacy. iFloy,d Alwon: Still leading, the charge for cih~nge : , , . ··• . ; Editor's note: Marist's 8,300 aluin- Ma'rist that· year..

In -The Aftermath· The number of eulogies written about th~ tragic demise of the;_ Space Shuttle Challenger and its seven United States astronauts • has been overwhelming - even Marist President Dennis Murray has released a statement concerning the event. This is deservedly so. • . • • We feel there are no new words we can write - no wayfor. us to express the sorrow we, as all ,Americans, felt on -Jan. 27: Suffice to say, our hearts are with the victims' families.;. • • · There is, however, one comment we would like to make. "Sensationalism" is usually linked with television network coverage of such a drama, because networks tend to get maximum mileage out of every story. We have all watched television reporters treat stories of sadness· and disaster in. a most un- humanlike manner. When th~t happens, any semblance of coin- ·passion gets lost. , . The shuttle tragedy was an exception. The networks showed respect for the first time in years - respect for NASA, for our nation's leaders, for the astronauts' families and for the American public. There was no criticism and no scapegoat searching, just a deep regard for the loss of human lives. Instead of assaulting viewers with opinions, the ne_tworks waited with us for any sign of.hope, and then mourned with us over the loss. ' In those frantic minutes immediately after the explosion: the news anchors kept the nation calm as the first scattered informa- tion came in. We must admire the extreme professionalism it took to carry on in the. face of such despair. _ .. . _ Although this may not signal an end to network- "sensa- tionalism_," we respect the networks' decision to treat the space shuttle incident with kindness and sincerity. It was a path well - chosen. - The A waited Settlement ·:. .:.AND IN THis ·coRNER .. .-.

It is also common to be born- . barded by the musicians and dee- • jays who obviously did not make • it on Broadway, each sharing their musical heritage with the entire gallery. Tape decks blast at. ex- tremely loud levels, and as usual, all at the same time. The weekends that all students look forward to are even more outrageous. Football, basketball, or baseball are temporary substitutes for the music. The ex- citement is uncontrollable and you will begin to wonder if yoµ are at the actual game or if the entire gallery made parole. "I think the college program is a good opportunity for a prisoner to make a positive step in the direc- tion of change. The biggest pro- blem I've encountered is that the prison, overall, opposes any pro- gram· that proves to benefit the prisoner and doesn't materially benefitthe prison itself. This is a fact even though the (prison) ad- ministration superficially appears to be helpful." Most students have expressed the same opinion as Joseph. Prison guards are more hostile toward col- lege students, more often than not going out of their \yay to cause any inconvenience to sttllients and staff alike. One instructor informed me that she was not permitted to bring a newspaper in to share with her class because it had not been cleared by 'security,' (whatever that means). Another instructor was not allow- ed to enter one night because he had come a few minutes late due to car problems. Later he discovered that the clocks in the lobby were always kept fifteen to twenty minutes fast. Even more drastic the New York State Depart- ment of Correctional Services (NYSDOCS) has created a policy Finally, the weekend movie is called and now you can stay in and study in relative peace.

Let's also consider the student who has been preparing for an im- portant exam all week. On the.day of the exam receives two suspicious looking letters. One from a relative informing him that his wife - that' he hasn't heard from in over two years:*:is seven months pregnant;. The other.from his lawyer inform- ing him that all appeals have been exhausted· and he need not look forward to a retrial. After getting around. all the above you are faced with the prison guar,g who is full of envy and in- timidated by the educated and streetwise convict (whom he will never trust). He believes this inmate should be picking cotton instead of going to college and trying to make something useful out of himself. The problems still exist, but there are stiH those men, courageous, .. persistent, and committed to pur- ' suing their goals. Unfortunately, some are deter- red from their quest, which· is uriderstaridable when they have to tolerate the circumstances that a repressive and hostile environment. such as prison fosters. Motivation • and support are necessary to keep the drive alive and the spirits up.

But despite the lack of progress to this point, the reality is that _, the proposal does have to be settled. . . Some students involved have already left the school for intern- ships or other reasons. They now have to be located when the proposal is completed and approved. Also, seniors have to be com- pensated in a physical check becuase this is their last semester at Marist and will have no more bills to "adjust." All this leaves us with some serious questions. Why was the committee allowed to be formed without experienced assistance for the financia1 part? Wh)' didn't Wicenski pu~h mo~e to ?et the signed proposals back? When did Ryan and W1censk1 decide the proposal was asking for too much? How did they determine it was unrealistic when the proposal has not been submitted to the administration yet?

And· people wonder about stu- dent apathy at Marist: Why, some ask,· don't students care 'about anything? _The reason· i~,' the'jo- called "student" apathy is jusi a reflection of the administrations at- titude to,vard students. The con~ tinuous vacillating on tfre· lssue of restitution is a classic· example of Marist brushing us offagain;with the resultant attitude being, if they don't care about us, we don't' care about Mi,uist. • • Now it;s not like we're asking for the world. We paid extra to live in the Garden Apartments and could not move in on September 3. All we ask is that we receive restitution comm~nsurate _ with the time we were "inconvenienced," based on the formula proposed by the stu- dent representatives. • Marist blew their biggest chance at sidestepping the entire· issue over the Christmas break. They could have credited our tuition with the amount of restitution and gotten clea11Iy away without paying a dollar in cash. The only problem with that now is, most of us are seniors and there isn't going to be a next semester's tuition. So, until we receive this restitu- tion, we will continue to write these letters to The Circle. And President Murray must be just as sick of reading these as you all must be.

THE CIRCLE.• F.ebru~,Y 6, 1986--'·-·:,_· - by Ken Parker Lately in the world of popular music; it seems what's new is what's old .. As rock~n'roll moves into its third decade, its past is coming back to haunt artists and listeners alike .. Revivalism is in. And with the help of MTV, new audiences are being exposed to an ever- growing variety of songs-, in- strumentation -and fashion from decades gone by. Two types of revivalism ·exist. First, there is artist who re- . records the songs ofa particular ar- tist or time frame. In this case,.the artist acknowledges the pioneer(s). Then there is the artist who sounds like he is re-recording the songs of particular artist or time frame. In this case, he is ripping off the unacknowledged pioheer(s). It is difficult to determine the ex- act origin of the revivalism trend.
