In Residence
By Edward O'Neill
.. The greatest boon to the. power structure which exists in the
United States is a generation which tunes itself out on booze, grass,
or drugs. This is so because what results is a_ power structure dev?id
of scrutiny, without evaluation, or most 1mportan~ly, . not b_emg
made susceptible to the forces of necessary . change 111 the so~11:ty.
One who is 'tuned-out,' simply cannot or does not care to scr~tm1ze,
evaluate, or bring pressure to bear on those who are ruling the
society toward their own ends.
·
.
.
To concretize the point, a student body of a college m a mce,
quiet suburb of Poughkeepsie w1Ach tu!1es itself out on e~ucat_ion
and specifically, the academic onentation _of that educ~t10n, 1s a
great boon to at least part of the . 'power structure
of that
institution. To tune out by spending $3,000 a year to be able to do
your own thing which in fact is noTHING; by figuring out who can
be cut who 'gives' marks, and who is a soft touch for a good so.b
story; ~nd by being satisfied with perso!1al mediocrity; allows this.
power structure to exist and perpetuate itself free from any real or
effective checks.
However most members of this particular power structure are
concerned ~bout this situation and are persistently trying to develop
the means toward which a 'tuned-in' student body can develop.
They do this out of an inner security that they are among the better
people in their profession and they reali,,_e that just maybe, every
once in a while they might learn somethiqg from a student. Others
though, within this structure become very paranoid when the lowe~t
class within this structure seeks to demonstrate its rights. Their
insecurity in their own abilities, their satisfaction in holding "safe"
positions and their fear of honest confrontation of principles, be it
between
administrator
and student,
teacher and student,
and
· relations among students; leads to their attempts at limiting the
effectiveness of those who attempt to agitate for the assertion of
those rights.
Here then, is one way of viewing the societal structure of this
college: the power structure, the major portion constantly seeking to
better itself and even encouraging the participation of the student
body in its affairs; the minor portio?, !earful of_such participation
when it endangers and reveals their madequac1es; and finally, a
student body which for the most part,
is
'tuned-out' and concerned
solely with that greatest of all human achievements, the college
degree. These then, are some of the realities each of us faces as we
choose our position or place in that society and determine how well
we will perfonn the responsibilities of that position.

Religious Ties?
The question ~f religious ties at Marist is a complex one. Complex
because of the nature of this school, the trends in the Roman
Catholic Church, the loss of faith in organized religion and the New
York State Constitution.
·
It
is not for us, the students, to question the commitment of the
Marist Brothers in the past; they built the school. However,
it
is right
to ask the administration to do all that it must to insure the best
education possible while keeping rising tuition costs down.
-
The Blaine Amendment is a reality that must be faced in terms of
securing state fu11ds and the Blaine Amendment has little success of
being removed or
altered.
Maris! needs state aid; all schools do.
If
in order to obtain state aid
changes in operation arc necessary, let the changes be made.
The needed changes are not immediately or
exactly
identifiable.
<:ertainly this college is Catholic. Catholic, is not meaningful in the
same way to all - what the state designates as Catholic however is
important.
_
As of this Thursday, the theology requirement will be eliminated,
thus removing a key stumbling block to the granting of state aid.
Other changes arc needed .
The college must act promptly in order to be
considered
for state
aid before
197 3.
In a few
short
weeks the deadline for application will have been
passed and another application cannot be made until
1973.
*****
Out of-Focus
One of the real problems of society today is the establishing of
"community··
among men. Community is a problem because of
several forces that operate in society.
This campus could be a
"community.''
However the incidents of
the past few weeks indicate that we have far to go towarcls creating a
community spirit.
Traditions arc found to be un-traditional and violence is used to
enforce the ··un-tradition:·
This is shameful.
Drinking oneself into dmnkeness becomes the weekend pastime.
How docs this practice contribute to anything?
Vandalism in the campus center occurs. While
students
litter the
theatre with cigarette butts, they violate fire rnles in the process.
This does not make sense on a campus of men and women.
Clearly the spring semester has been witness to a student body, to
a campus "community,-
that was, out of focus. Let us work on
ge_nerating·a
·communal
spirit.

,This
raises
some interesting questions.
.
Fint;
·
if anyone initiates a
kidnapping,·
they llhould be
aware that the victim is going to
defend· himself. But the fact
remain:. that the sophomores
were the antagonistll. Next we
mus;t remove those who engage·
in this tradition which produces
such
a
negative
effect. We
neither need nor want thes;e
hypocrites in our community.
They must be punished and
:.erve
as an
example for all
would-be offenders.
I
am
personally calling .
for
their removal ai. soon as pollS1ble.
If
this cannot be done through
immediate expulsion, then they
s;hould
be
moved off campus,
stripped of all privileges, and

ordered to leave at the end of

be just a slap on the wrist.

for the United States. More importantly however expansion
of
the
ABM
is posited in such a fashion so as to make
it
non-negotiable at
the SALT talks.
This
expansion
could
wreak these
t;ilks.
The second reason why ABM expansion is unwise is because it
insults the national priorities. It is inconsistent with the attempts to
trim the federal budget and hence
slow
inflation.
The only hope in this bleak ABM affair is that Congress may
refuse to fund the program.

Book Of The Year
We of the Cirde feel
it is our privilege to bring your attention to
another campus publication.
which is now on sak, the
1970
Reynard. Having shared a darkroom and, at times, and office with
the yearbook staff, we are well aware of the type of production they
are evolving. The creativity and devotion of its staff has marked the
1970
Reynard as an art form of superior quality.
Growth and change is the theme of this year's Reynard, and the
feeling of this motif flows freely throughout the book's
304
pages.
At times it is reflected in the student's attitudes, at times in the
campus appearance, or perhaps in the outlook of the administration.
The photos and literary work of this book are expertly mixed in
a
special type of vision, one that
will
be meaningful to all its readers.
The
1970
Reynard has a deep sense of beauty, one that will he
lasting and still rewarding as you look back upon it many years
hence.
Vin Winsch, the Editor of the
1970
Reynard. has supervised
th~·
entire production, and from cover to cover, the book reflects on
:ii-.
natural artistic creativity. Aware·of this. the Circle Editorial Board
feels fully confident in predicting that this
will
be the most :-uperh
yearbook ever to be published at Marist.

Topic - Nickname
.
Ever since the first time
I
heard someone speak sarcastically about
our dear school nickname (which, by the way, was also the first time
I
heard someone mention our nickname),
I
started to think that, just
possibly~ the men of Marist might not like being referred to as the
"Red Foxes."· In three years,
I
have yet to find a student who
actually does.like our calling card .... So, following Love Duff's lead,
. I tried to find out if and how our nickname could be changed.
·
·,
According. to Doc Goldman, the process is
•not
really that difficult.
.
But rather the two main problems are: l. do the students really want
it changed? (or are we just finding something else to complain
about); 2. to what do we want it changed ... Off hand,
I
would say
It
seems that last year at this time, I remember reading
a Joe
Rubino column asking the question, How can a team be so good one
night and be· terrible the next night? Well
1
think that would be a
good question
to ask now. Marist ·has the potential
to be a
powerhouse
in their division yet it seems that this has yet to
materialize. When Marist played Kings Point they seemed to forget
how good they really were and proceeded to throw the game away.
They were at least 20 points better yet they ended up losing by
three points. What it all adds up to is something

'
With the two most recent
wins
against Nyack and Oneonta by
lopsided
margins maybe
Marist has started
to realize
their
tremendous talent. l certainly hope so for the tough part of their
schedule is coming up and victory in all future games is
a
must.

Has anyone given this a thought'? I'm not talking intram~rals but
on the intercollegiate level. It seems that if anything is going to be
.done
for next year now is the time for it t9 start. When Marist enter
into the Co-Ed field they should have thought of this also. With next
year's female population rising to over 200 on the U., it is reasonable
to consider the idea of fielding teams on the college scene. Take for
instance in the field of basketball.

very sure· that it wouldn't
be that hard to begin but it must be
supported by our lovely Co-Eds. If you girls want this now is the
time not next year. Think about it and get involved .....
