The ar- -- tide pleased the institute's direc- tor, Dr. Lee Miringoff, who · described himself in the article as - the "Howard Cosen of Dutchess County." Because ofthe institute's con- sistent accuracy in telling it like it is; the results ()f Marist polls have app_eared in numerous publica- tions, -including Newsweek and The New York Times. Since the article in Newsweek hit the newsstands, Miringoff has receiv- ed inquiries from Time magazine.- as well as NBC and ABC. "We were very satisfied with the coverage," said Miringoff of the article.

March 29, 1984 · THE CIRCLE· Page 3--• Dorm visitation policy gets mixed reactions by Peler Colaizzo The housing offkc has initiated a new policy, requiring visiting students to leave their IDs with entry officers upon entering residence halls, according · to Robert Heywood, director of housing. Bef9rc this new rule, which became effective after spring break; students only had to sign in to the residence halls if they did not live there. Now visi1ing- s1uden1s must both sign in and leave their IDs. Students may pick up their IDs upoi1 leaving the building. At the end of their shift at 7 a.m., entry officers bring all IDs not picked up· to the residence director, ac- cording lo Heywood. These· IDs may be obtained the next day, Heywood said. Any unauthorized overnight stays "would have to be address- ed," he added. · Guests of students must still obtain a guest pass and ~vait at the entry officer's desk for the host student, according 10 Heywood. . The guest must be accompanied by the host in order to enter the building, he said. Heywood said the reason for the change in policy was that stu.dents were not signing in pro-· perly. "There was no active step being taken," he said. "With this system we can better monitor . when people leave the building.'' When asked why the switch was· made in the middle of the semester, Heywood said there were concerns about the system because students were not cooperating. Platt::to· step down; no successor chosen by Eileen Hayes Dr. Richard Platt, chairman of the Division of Arts and Letters, has announced his ·resignation from his post as chairman. Platt said he will continue to teach in the Communication Arts depart- ment after he steps· down July 1, 1984. Platt said his decision was made for several · reasons. "Because I've been an ad- ministrator for seven years, I feel I can serve the institution better and be more satisfied with my position as a member of the facul- ty,'' he said. Platt would not comment as to whether his salary had anything to do with this decision. is so large and diverse it creates problems for the administrator to . operate the division and make plans for the future," he said. Platt said he has two criteria for his job - productivity and satisfaction. He said part of his decision included not being satisfied with what he was doing. "However, growth in productivi- ty was significant, although not as much·as I would have liked," he said. . As of yet, no one has been. selected to be Platt's successor. A meeting is planned for tomorrow with Academic Vice President Andrew Molloy to address the division about this process. "There were all sorts of people in the buildings that · didn't belong," Heywood said. "Students were waking up in the middle of the night to find in- truders in their rooms." . Entry policy ai other colleges and universities varies, according to Heywood. "Some schools do not have any (entry policy) while others have locked doors 24 hours ··a day," he said. Heywood said that the rest of this semester will be a "trial period" for the new system. Al the end of the semester the system will be evaluated and may be modified. Heywood said he does not think the new policy at Marist in- . fringes on individuals' rights. The -idea is 10 provide a safer environ- ment against intruders, he said. "There is no reason for it to be a hassle," Heywood said. "The only people it should bother are people who don't belong in the building." While Heywood said that a safer environment would be created, entry officers noted pro- blems and troubles adjusting to the new policy during his first week. "It's a big hassle," said freshman Jenny Cook, an entry officer in Marian Hall. "A lot of people are reluctant to give IDs.'' · When asked if the new policy made the building safer, Cook said: "If they signed in before it's the same thing. If you know who's in the building it shouldn't make a difference." Tom McCauley of Fairfield, Conn., an entry officer in Leo Hall, said the new system is com- plicated. "There have been pro- blems with lost and mixed-up IDs," McCauley said. "It's a good idea because it keeps track of who is in the building, but it's a lot more work," McCauley said. "No one is used to it yet. After a few weeks it should be alright," he said. Student reaction to the change in policy was mostly negative. ~ "I think it's a bad idea because it's a big inconvenience 10 leave IDs," said freshman Paul Kelly. "Putting them in a file makes us like digits," he said. · "It violates our rights because the ID card is our property," Kel- ly said. "\Vhat are they going to do next, ask us to leave a $5 deposit - like a weight key? It's our ID." All areas of the division have grown since Piatt became chair- man three years ago. He said that . some restructuring may be.needed to make it easier to accomplish all things in the division. "Because it Platt has been at Marist for eight years.

(Photo by Christine Dempsey) ~ Just· a drop in . the bucket ~ Mondale delegate-reflects: lo.. by Kevin Schulz . It's open house at Marist College and prospec- tive students and their parents are meeting many · of the well-dressed administrators and professors in the upper concourse of Campus Center. But where did all the buckets go? And where are those filthy little throw rugs? Those are ques- tions a current Marist student might ask. . A prospective student might ask why there are - so many coffee stains on the floor. He certainly wouldn't be too impressed to find out that they are not coffee stains but tar-stained drops of water leaking through the roof above him and on- to his brand new suit. The once treacherous trek through Campus Center has ·been···simplified with the recent pat- ching of the roof, but some leaks still remain as Anthony Tarantino, director of Physical Plant, awaits budget approval for a new roof. "The problem is with the skylights," Taran- tino said. "They have a poor design." Tarantino estimated that a new roof for Cam- pus Center could cost "in excess of $50,000." The budget must be approved however, before any-action is taken. · "The probabilities are that the administration will want to replace it," Tarantino said. According to Betty Yeaglin, director of college activities, the roof has leaked for at least five years. "It has leaked ever since I've been here," Yeaglin said. "The roof was under warranty when I complained, but it expired while they (the roofing company) were in and out (trying to repair it)." . · Yeaglin said that the skylights were supposed· to be replaced last summer. "The money was in the budget for them, but they (the roofing company) kept putting it off un- til the weather was bad," Yeaglin said. The recent repairs to the roof were·made by a company other than the original company which put the roof on. · Some leaks still remain, - however, and the buckets looking like a poor man's spittoons also remain. . '.'I'm worried about somebody falling,,,. Yeaglin said. "I've been out there with a mop myself to clean up." The Campus Center roof is one of many leak- ing roofs at Marist, but Tarantino refused to comment about them. Things look_ good in NY by John Albinson Registered New York Democrats will have the chance to vote for their favorite man in the upcoming April 3 New York Democratic Primary. The three candidates voters will choose from are Walter Mondale, Gary Hart and the Rev. Jesse Jackson. · · Dr. Lee Miringoff, assistant professor of political science at _Marist, is currently conducting a survey of N.Y. Democrats to predict who will be the winner at· this, year's Democratic Conven- tion. Miringoff's last survey, which focused on the New Hampshire primary, landed him a full-page article in the March 25 issue of "Newsweek." Fredica Goodman, vice- chairperson of the Dutchess County Democratic Committee and also in running as a Mondale delegate, said she believes Mon- dale's chances of taking the New York primary are "very good." Goodman also said she believes the turnout for next week's primary "would not be very good." She said that through her dealings with registered voters she feels that the turnout will be poor, probably less than the projected 30 percent of all registered New York Democrats. Goodman, who is running as a Mondale delegate in a slate delegation made up, by law, of two men, two women, and one alternate, (either male or female), works with the 21st Congressional District (Dutchess Cou~ty). She said that with all the legal changes the primaries have gone through, a person "really has to go out of his way to educate himself about the primaries." Grant. reductions Will force closing of refugee program by Catherine DeNunzio . ' The ·Refugee Assistant · Pro- gram (RAP) at Marist is expected to terminate by early July because of the reduction of grant money allocated by the State. "It seems in all probability, ac- cording · to _the information available, that the program will have to be phased our by the first of July," said Brother Richar.d Rancourt, director of RAP. There has been no formal confirmation of the State's intention to discon- tinue this program, which serves 40 refugees. Although RAP subcontracts. space from Marist, the college does not fund the program. "Marist doesn't feed any money into the program," said Ran- court, "but we've been well- received." The Refugee ·Assistant Pro- gram started at Marist in February of 1981 after Brother · Joseph Belanger became suc- cessful with his experimental pro- 1.!ram in which students .tutored ~rea refugees. Then a grant was given by the NYS department of Social Services in Albany. - Brother Rancourt was given the position as director, responsible for organizing and implementing_ the program. "The main purpose of the pr9gram is to ha~·e the refugees ;l.ltain, as quickly as possible, economic self-reliance," said Rancourt. Teaching refugees English is the fundamental ap- proach used. For the past three years the NYS department of Social Ser- vices allocated the RAP at Marist, the only program of its kind in the :v1id-Hudson Valley, S60,000 per year to operate. After evaluation this year, it has been determined that the program is not as vital to the Mid-Hudson Vallev as it has been in the past. "There is no real need fm: the progrnm because of the lack of new refugees in the area. We've already accomplished our goal of making the current refugees economically self- reliant," said Rancourt. Teaching English is not the on- ly activity the RAP is involved with. According to Brother Ran- court, the people who work in RAP also help the refugees by taking them to doctors, helping them find employment, giving them health advice, reaching them home management and several have also served as interpreters. "A major goal for us is to help refugees ease the assimilation pro- cess into a new country," said Rancourt. The majority of refugees aided in this program are Vietnamese, but there are also Laotian, Cam- bodian, Polish, Czechoslakin, Haitian and Cuban refugees who benefit from RAP. Aside from the director, Brother Rancorut, and his assistant Rita Stein, RAP's personnel consists of Marist students who are on the work-study program. Twenty-five students arc on the payroll which is funded by 20 percent of the grant money and 80 percent of the college's work-study allocation money. \ 1 ·, ·-------------- --• Page 4 · THE CIRCLE• March i9, 1984 ~~ So 1 l.._i z.

How now? the reader asks. Well, I am a resident of North Road. _ · Our fellow student, housemate and friend, Patrick Larrabee, who was the unit coordinator, has been dismissed. With much thought I tried to understand why. I would assume a major part of his responsibility as unit coor- dinator would be _to maintain the houses on North Road. Also to a general degree help out their - oc- cupants with assorted problems and whenever necessary help them seek out the help they might need. · · Of course I have kept no log book on How or When Patrick performed such functions, but I can say very honestly he spent a lot more time than just his on du- ty hours. The maintenance re- quests were there, maintenance iiself was not. Therefore I cannot be led to believe he was dismissed for neglect of duty. This would be both unreasonable and laughable. Why was he dismissed? Why weren't the occupants asked their opinions? Better yet, who was the Residem Director that dismissed him? I have never met the R.D;, nor have I ever seen her on North· Road. How could she dismiss so- meone she had not - observed at work? - Did she compare the ratio of maintenance requests per occu~ pant with other areas of campus? How about comparing .the number of household damages · witli previous years of North Road residents? What about the · number of complaints made by neighbors from - previous semesters?

Column One by John Bakke You can· say what· you want about Marist's computer science program, its picturesque location on the banks of the Hudson or the overabundance of distilled spirits on campus. It's still the Judeo- Christian heritage....,.. that panacea for all that's evil in the world - that really sets this place apart. 1 can remember looking at col- leges during my senior year in high school, listening to admis- sions people boast about some new library or classroom building. "That's all well and good," I would say, "but tell me about your Judeo-Christian heritage." Well, of course, they just look- ed at me, knowing that I'd struck their Archilles heel, knowing they'd lost another freshman to Marist's enviable religious tradi- tion. Much as I admire our Judeo- Christian heritage, though, I must admit I've always wondered how such a devoutly Catholic bunch of guys like the Marist Brothers managed to J udaize it the way they have. So I asked a Jewish friend of mine what he said when people asked him how he could go to a school with such a strong Catholic legacy. "You mean you never heard of Brother Cohen?" he said. Indeed I hadn'L But I felt com- pelled to find out as much as I byG. w·alsh sometimes wonder why anyone expresses their intentions anymore, since usually the minute they come out of your mouth is that things start to go wrong. Take spring break, everyone's intention was to-go-to Florida and have a wonderful time and be best buddie$ forever right? Let's be serious: Most of us didn't even get there and spent the week at home doing fun things like dean- ii:ig gutters or changing the kitty litter Mom (and the cat) saved from Christmas. Those that went sometimes didn't make it straight through and had to stop at tourist traps like the Cherry Hill Rest. New Jersey has never looked so good. Why go to Daytona when-you can sit in an all all-night diner and play trivial pursuit with truckers from such exotic locales as Cag- gsville, South Carolina? The real trivial pursuit was trying to find intelligent conversation in a cafe that makes the Port Authority look like the Culinary. Those who finally made it to the beach are now spending time in either of two places, the George Hamilton home for the undertan- ned or at the Sloan Kettering Clinic for L_auderdale Leperosy. A word to the wise: Next trip don't take along anyone with bad breath or anyone who believes that natural body aromas are sen- sual; they are better off left at toll booths. Having the best of intentions doesn't only go for vacation plan- ning - we've all seen the effect they have on school work. It's gettting pretty hard to explain to Mom what Kamikazes have to do March 29, 1984 · THE CIRCLE· Page 1--• Brother Cohen? could about this almost-forgotten Marist Brother, the man who put the Judeo- in the Judeo-Christian Heritage. History has neglected Brother Cohen, and the records pertaining to his life here at Maris! are sket- chy at best, as if his remarkable contribution to this institution wasn't all that important. However, when you consider how unenthusiastic the other brothers must have been, his efforts were nothing short of incredible. So you can imagine how thrill- ed I was, in the course of my search through the college ar- chives, to come across his diary. The old book is in terrible shape - the binding is falling apart and some of the pages are missing. Parts of it, are in Hebrew ano others are simply illegible. But the readable sectioris are fascinating, a literary portrait of a man blazing a trail for Judaism here at Marist. "February 16. Brother R - forgot to get Kosher wine again, then got upset when I complain- ed. As though it were my fault. He's a lovely man, but he should know about this sort of thing by now.'' "August 24. Cardinal J - paid us a visit today. What a fuss everyone made! You'd think it was the second coming. I greeted him with 'Shalom' when I was in- troduced, and Brother D - was mad at me. I must be more sen- sitive to his feelings." "November 25. Carved the turkey again this Thanksgiving. Made a mess of it as usual. but Brother G - had insisted I do it. He's convinced all Jewish clergy are adept with knives." "September 27. Had to fight to get the day off. 'I don't care if it is your kupper,' he said. 'Yorn Kippur,' I said. 'Whatever,' he said. I suppose each of us must bear his own cross." "July 9. My turn to read aloud at Mass. Just for fun, started with the Talmud and got a good laugh, except from Brother D -. Mc and my silly sense of humor.'' "March 4. Have decided to give up pork for Lent. Taking the easy way out, but it makes up for last year's sacrifice of gefilte fish." "December 25. The day of mix- ed emotions, as always. Joined the party for a while and had a few cups of egg nog. Then a few more. The orphans loved me as Santa. 'Ho, ho, ho,' I cried, han- ding out the presents, 'Happy Hanukkah!' " What a guy. Brother Cohen may never have a dormitory nam- ed after him, but his legacy lives on in Marist's Judeo-Christian Heritage, a pervasive spirit that endures from the foundation of Greystone to the tippy-top of the cross on the Chapel roof. Good intentions with Financial Management. She didn't believe the laundry money · line, either. Maybe it did sound a little fishy when you asked her on Wednes- day to send up two rolls of nickels Federal Express in order to arrive by Friday night. My mom spent six hours looking through a New Paltz phone book to find Joe's laundromat. But what's to argue about? The point is you tried and finals are still five weeks away. We've all tried the activities route also. It didn't seem too hard aLfirst to attend meetings and to volunteer for everything from flower selling to dogwashing. The hard part came ,vhen all of these activities fell on the same weekend as the Find A Floosie Formal at Oneonta. Which is more charitable - ,vashing 30 poodles singlehandedly or helping a coed find the shoe you have so carefully_ hidden in your room? Sorry, but for most guys and girls, washing a golden retriever just doesn't cut it. My commit- ment as a Marist tour guide stop- ped after one day. I fell over a curb while trying to lecture parents and try and walk backwards at the same time. After recovering enough to stag- ger to Leo, I managed to get the whole crew stuck in the elevator. So what if Jim Daly hates me and I'm on social probation for driv- ing 30 people into claustrophobic paranoia - that wasn't my inten- tion. Nobody seemed to care, and they shredded my application for an admissions internship. Diets are the best vehicle for good intentions and the worst of- fender of honesty. After the spr- ing break starvation fiasco, I know a group of juniors who are David Mccraw attempting to write a book on Miller Lite for Fitness. The big- gest promise a dieter makes is the final binge and then the journey into starvation. Okay, I'll eat anything I want until Sunday and then it's back to the three sesame-seeds-a-day diet. I don;t know how far you weny, but I tried that diet last year. I started on Friday, Dec. 31, and ended my binge on Sunday, July 12. I couldn't help it. I was on a . roll (actually it was more like a cheese danish). But I really did think about stopping eating or running a marathon twice a day. I even got as far as getting into my sweats and running a mile to the nearest Carvel. Well, you didn't want me to drop dead on the first day did you? Letter writing is high up on the list also. I never seem to ·have a pen, paper, stamp or address at the same time. By the time I get them all together, the stamp is ripped, the envelope is licked, and then the letter is the one I wrote to my third-grade teacher asking why mommies get so mad when puppies don't go on the paper. Not writing doesn't stop me from cursing my mailbox either. My friends should know I was going to write a letter, they should at least answer it. Writing is what brings me to the end of this column; and I was going to end this with a real win- ner - no, really, I swear it! This last paragraph was going to be Er- ma Bambeck, Marvin Kitman and Winston Churchill all in one. But then my pen ran out of ink and by the time I found another one I sort of, well, forgot what I was going to write. I was really going to throw in a good one, at least I intended to. \' .............. · ·, --- ) --Page.8- THE CIRCLE~ March 29; 1984 Students Jinisk,2()0..,rflil<t tPek.', by Paul Raynis They left Boston's Prudential Square amidst the wind~deadened applause of only a handful of pe9ple .. · · . -..

"It's an old fairy tale with several hundred versions· and I adapted it," said Serafini. .- Serafini said he has spent the past year rewriting the script to make it fit within the space available on stage and the varied personalities of Marist's actors. "One thing we do with the Children's Theater is to make it our own show," said Serafini . "We let the actors mold the play." During the performances, the actors will be spending a lot of time interacting with the children in the audience and from the stage. · "We'll do anything and everything to keep the children involved," said Serafini. "We've even let the schools know what Christialls .observe Luther's birth by ~anet Lawler Sixty worshippers gathered together Sunday night in the · Marist Chapel to read Scripture . and raise their voices in hymns for . an ecumenical service celebrating the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther's birth. · The service was c_o-sponsored by the Marist College Campus Ministry, Religious Studies Faculty: Division of Humanities, and · the Lutheran Clergy of Southern Dutchess County. __ The guest speaker, Professor Eric Gritsch, Ph.D .• discussed the life and beliefs of Martin Luther, the 16th century Roman Catholic priest whose objections to elements of Roman Catholic practice began the movement known as the Protestant Reformation. Professor Gritsch, a graduate of Yale University, has written several books about Martin Luther's life and times. His latest book is entitled, "Luther: in Retrospect." Martin Luther preached that God only asks for trust and faith alone from mankind - a deep trust from birth to death, ac- cording to Gritsch. Luther said one must be a proper religious student, believe in the grace of God, and that forgiveness could not be bought with money. · Professor Gritsch said Martin Luther's belief · in a merciful, nurturing God was like the relationship between new parents and their infant. "You take this ·newborn home," Gritsch said. "Raising this child will be very costly. The child may contact anywhere up to fifty-five genetic diseases. There is no guarantee this child will grow up to even like you as parents,'' Gritsch· said. The congregatio·n, mostly filled with older adults and married couples, listened attentively to the analogy about God's relationship to mankind. "Well, God feels the same with His children. There are no guarantees about the outcome. Therefore, God became a child to be like us. He experienced our lives." The service also included the hymns "O God Our Help is Ages Past" and "A Mighty Fortress ls Our God," as well as spiritual dialogue between Professor Gritsch and the guests attending the Christian unity celebration. ·Reaction---------------------- songs we'll be singing so the children can sing along.'' According to Serafini, the actors will . ask questions and encourage the children to respond. "It's really a challenge for the actors," said Serafini. "Each show will be a little dif- ferent. They'll be getting constant feedback from the audience." The cast is made up of frogs and peasants singing and dancing throughout the entire play. "The most difficult thing for many of the actors, at this point, . is learning to dance, sit and walk with flippers on," said Serafini. Lisa Maggio, costume des·1gner, and Beverly Morlang, make-up director, along with several fashion design majors, have been working hard to make the actors look · realistic, according to Serafini. "The frog make-up and costumes look fantastic; people have said it looks like the frog version of 'Cats'," said Serafini. "Lisa and Beverly really seem to be on top of the situation." Continued from page 1 Serafini also complimented his Assistant Director Nancy Keschinger, Producer Jean Marie Magrino, Assistant Producer Tom Greene, as well as all the others working on the play.

Originally Brothers Belanger, Russell and Brother Nilos Donnelly, had taken the project on themselves. But according to Belanger, Dr. Dennis. Murray, president of the college, offered his support. "Dr. Murray ex- pressed interest in the project and referred me to· the Development Office," said Belanger. "It started from there." Belanger said that he.has gotten great support from the college. Working with Chris Lapham,- public information director, and Bryan Maloney, director of alumni affairs, we got mailing privileges through the Alumni office, and Chris helped with writing and rcv1s111g the literature," said Belanger. Belanger sa1c1 that the Marist Mission Statement reflects what the Marist Brothers arc all about. "We see needs and try to supply them," said Belanger.

The point is that nearly every situation will have good · as well as unfortunate aspects. So it is with the · current upheaval in the athletic depart- ment brought on by Mike Perry's ascension to the basketball pos111on and Ron Petro's corresponding_ move on full-time athletic director. Perry represents a turning point - in the basketball program - the administration and board of trustees' all-out commitment to try to push Marist into the athletic spotlight. It is, to at least a certain extent, an effort that should meet with success. · The program here is. most of what the optimists would like to think it is: one with. a staggering amount of potential, considering its brief Division One history and the modest size of the college. The Red Foxes could, within five years, be averagiQ.g 5,000 to 6,000 per-game attendance if the facility is expanded to accommodate that many. And Perry could help make it happen. It will take a few con- ference championships and a couple surprising, top recruits. The first was ready to happen even without him; the second looks promising because of the new coach's European contacts. The potential for area support is also large, and Perry's colorful personality and established reputation iri the Kingston area should help in this area. The bright sides are obvious; the less attractive ones correspondingly less publicized. For one, Assistant Coach Don Kelbick has not been retained by Perry and has therefore coached his last game here. This isn't unfair - it's all pare of college coacliing, and was by no means unexpected - simply an un- fortunate development of the switch. Dick Quinn, assistant athletic director, is another Marist em- ployee you probably won't be seeing next year. His job is being dissolved because Petro's is now that of full-time athletic director. Somehow, one full-time A.D. is an improvement in manpower over a part-time A.O. and a full- time assistant A.D. Must be the "new math" ... And more changes are in the offing. With several other dissatisfied McCann employees looking to leave Marist after this year, the casualty count is likely to rise to four or more.

It would strengthen their case.'' Head Coach Jim Peclor said, "It is unfair to the guys. They're in college and it's difficult to get them to do it (raise money). "They should have to work for some of it but it is partly the school's responsibility too," Peelor said. Although the tea□ did not raise much money in the past, it is already planning several money- making ventures for the upcom- ing season, according to junior Rob Caldiero. In the fall, the team is planning to put together a program to sell at games, according to Caldiero. This wiU generate money from advertisers. Also, the team is planning to ask parents of players to donate money to the club: . '/ Reflecting on the past season, Caldiero said, "We played better this year than last year. We were in a lot. more close games this year. . . . ''The roster mixup is good in a way because now we realize what · was wrong for next year," he said. "It will never happen again." 200 Miles_ Continued from page 8 "People weren't clear as to why we were out there," he said. "I . was running for ·something I real- ly believe in." - Sciareua· said he had gotten a similar feeling while he was on the road. "A lot of people honked and waved," he said, "but a few others told me to get the hell off the road." Bellantoni and Sciaretta said that for next year's run, which they both plan to take part in, they hope to change the route in order to pass through more- populated areas. The two also said thai instead of relying on contributions from individuals, they would look into large companies as sponsors. "Trying to get donations from students is tough," said Sciaretta. "They usually don't have the money to give." Funds raised through the run have yet to be tallied, so Bellan- toni and Sciaretta said they're still unsure of how well they fared. But Sciaretta said that regardless of the outcome, he sees the run as a great way to make people aware of the Special Ser- vices program's presence ·on cam- pus. i i I / '; .
