Faculty
Reviews
Promotio.ri· Policies
·
The Faculty Policy Committee
(F-PC)
sponsored
a general
meeting
of the Faculty
on
Thursday, March
5, in room
249
Donnelly Hall.
.
The committee, consisting of
Dr. George Skau, Chairman, and
Dr.
Robert
Rehwoldt,
Mr.
Thomas
Casey,
Mr.
Edward
·
Waters and Mr. John Kelly called
the convocation
as a general
"airing-out"
session and to·
informally discuss the methods
and
criteria
of
faculty·
promotions. No policy was to be
decided and voted upon but
certian conclusions were to be
drawn and acted upon by the
committee itself.
The meeting was opened by a
propos;li to allow a member of
·THE
CIRCLE staff to be present
as an observer which was passed
by a majority show of hands.
The
remainder
of the
afternoon was spent discussing
promotion
methods. Presently,
the
method
of
promotion
consists of submitting a request
and a resume to the Committee
for Faculty Development (CFO),
consisting of , Dr.
·
Daniel
Kirk,
Chairman,
and_ Drs. Roscoe
_
Balch and George Hooper along
with
Administration
re pre sen ta tive, Bro. Richard
LaPietra.
The. CFO
than.
·
compiles
a number· of Student,
Faculty
and
Departmental
evaluations
of
the Faculty
member and uses these along
with tbe resume to determine
promotion.
-
Three major objections were
prevalent through the colloquim.
First, the criteria used does not
seem to be clear. Some faculty
members are promoted
while
others with seemingly parallel
qualifications
are denied. The
second
most
paramount
objection concerned the lack of
appeal channels open to the
faculty
member if the CFO
should deny his request. The
.
third objection is related to the
effectiveness and value of the
present method of student and
faculty evaluation.
The
general mood of the
faculty
seemed
to indicate
dissatisfaction
with
the
operation
of the CFD and
promotion procedures. However,
Dr. Kirk also, admits his feelings
that
certain
changes
are
necessary
-to
improve
the
method but he contends that the
basic structure of the promotion
system and the CFO arc sound.

Senator Edward Kennedy's i;eforms arc ridiculous. You cannot
reform something as repressive as the draft. The only possible reform
is abolition of the draft. After abolition a general amnesty must
follow for all those in exile in Canada and other havens for resistors.

must be freed. We who are temporarily free are obliged to do

BY VINCENT BEGLEY
Literary endeavors are alive
and well· on the Marist Campus.
Working to produce this year's
volume of the Mosaic are Scott
McKenna, the impetus behind
the 1970
·edition;
Pete Bartuka
and
Frank
Furlong,
former
editor of the Mosaic and editor-
publisher
of
·
the independent
literary magazine the Charles.
· -
· · Moderating this editorial boar;d
is Mr. Rob_ert Lewis.
·
Frank Furlong states the aim
of the_ Mosaic, "to encourage
creative writing on campus and
to
publish material of
·
poetic
quality and literary value."
·
At
the
present
time· the
editorial board has over one
hundred pages of original work,
·
submitted
by Marist students:
The· proc!!SS for publication was
stated by Frank. "The material
·
will be read by the board and
returned
to the authors for
correction and possible revisions.
The
work
·will
be. then
resubmitted
for re-evaluation
arid publication."
.
The Mosaic will consist of
approximately thirty pages· of
poems and short stories. Graphic
work is hoped to be carried out
by Rick Dutka,
.a
student whose
.
work can now. be seen in the
current
art showing in the
gallery lounge.
The Mosaic will be published
by Bro. Tarcisus, and made
available
to the students in
mid-April.

had racked up ten consecutive wins in an undefeated year and a
freshman named Bill Moody was showing signs of greatness .for. the
_future
.•. Between the hours of 3:00 p.m., Friday, March 3, 1967', and
7:00, p.m., Tuesday, March 7, 1967, twelve runners under the
direction. of student coach Charlie
Di
Sogra set· a world record,
officially acclaimed by Track and Field News headquarters in Los
Altos, California, Howard Cosell on
WABC's
"Speaking of Sports,"
and reporter Bob Teague on NBC~TV's 11 :00 News.· The twelve,
aiming to initiate Track as a varsity sport at Marist, covered 738.398
miles by running in 1-hour inteivals for 100 hours, 1 minute, 30.7
seconds, and completing 2,104 laps around a 616 yard oval. The
marathoners, who ran the first and last lap together, featured 4
Juniors - John Forbes, John Goegel, Pete Hayden, and Mike Butler,
2 Sophomores
- Dennis Verpoia and John Labuzetta,
and 6
Freshmen - Art Quickenton, Mike Moran, Joe Koeth, Ed Walzer, Phil
Cappio, and myself ... February of '67 saw basketball captain
John
Murphy make cage history by breaking the 1000 point barrier.
.John's career total of 1149 points places him No. I on Marist's
scoring list. Murphy holds the distinction of being
·the
only athlete
to play, let alone star, on both the Football and Varsity Basketball
teams ... To go back still further, the '63-'64 hoop season involved
three of our present administrators.
Dean Wade was the Varsity
mentor, while Doc Goldman coached the freshman squad. A 3-year
Varsity letterman named ))avid Flynn was not only president of the
class of '64, but also the valedictorian and recipient of the Cardinal
Spellman award at graduation ...
*****
Very rare is the athlete who
has crossed the pain barrier to
the
point
of total physical
exhaustion.
Such an athlete is
senior oarsman Mike Camardi.
A ·
graduate of St. Mary's in
·
Manhasset,
Mike
had little
exposure to organized athletics
before coming to Marist. Mike
was
.
attracted
to crew by the
·then
freshman
coach,
Bill
Zabicki. Sophomore
year saw
Mike improve under the tutelage
of Paul Arold.
Mike feels that his junior year
was the most important
yet,
both for himself and Marist crew
in
general.
The
two
mostimportant
races, he feels,
were the President's Cup and the
Dad Vail, where, for the first
time ever, the J.V.'s advanced to
the semi-finals. Mike speaks of
the
J.
V. 's
win
over
an
undefeated
Iona boat in the
President's Cup as the turning
point
for the
J.V.
boat. In
addition,
he
said,
it erased
forever the jinx some attached
to the race for Marist crew
teams.
Personally, Mike
speaks of the
Dad
Vail
race as being the
biggest of his career.
After giving
the eventual winner Marietta
a
tremendous race,
Mike,
totally
exhausted,
passed
out in the
boat. Looking back, Mike says
that,
because of
that race,
he is
no longer afraid of
the mythical
pain barrier. As
a
result, Mike
feels
he will
be a more
matured,
much tougher oarsman
this year.
Mike
pulls no punches
when,
in speaking of the
coming
year,
he says that all three
boats
have
the potential to win the Dad
Vail's.
A µistory major, Mike
·will
fulfill a lifelong ambition when
he enters the Marine Officer's
Candidate School in September.

BY JOE McMAHON
It was a
.~ay
supposedly to honor
_the
Mets in St. Petersburg;
F.Iorida: At· least it was until Governor- Claude Kirk. spoke at the
awards dinner that night. The Florida Governor .said he had just
come back'from speaking at .New England campuses, where he had
·
met
."hecklers
in
the unifornt of. the.day; disheveled filth and long·
·
hair; by golly they looked like. hell and talked like hell.,. The crowd
of about 1,700. mostly white, middle-aged locals, applauded. (shades-
_
of •~Easy
Rider"?) Kirk,
obviously swelling at the head now, threw
an arm back toward the' Mets· on: the upper dais and yelled: .. Just
look
-
at· their haircuts and· the way they
're
dressed. By God,· they are·.
America the beautiful. Stand up, Mets."
·
Luckily for Kirk, the Mets
all
stood, some more slowly than
others,-Tom Seaver annoyed, Tug McGraw ashamed.
As if Kirk was not enough, M. Donald Grant, chairman of the Mets
board, also had_ his 'two-cents to add:
..
I want to echo the words
of
the Governor. The hippies will
..
have us, we must fight, we must
· rebel." Then he
-
pointed toward the Mets:
-
"These men aie
representative· of New York and of our country_· These are' real
he-men."· (The patience of the Met players must be extraordinary:)
McGraw,
-
who had been upset since Kirk's remarks, says, "I
thought about it a lot. I wanted to get up with my wife and walk
out; but then_l would get traded, and I don't want that either."
.
The Mets were called up, one by one; to receive medallions on a
stage i~ the center of the arena. All were brisk and serious heads
slightly inclined to'the crowd's applause_ McGraw was no different
until he came back down the steps. Then he raised his hand shoulder
, -
high and spread his forefinger and middle finger in the peace sign.
Few people ·saw it, no one seemed to react ...
If
I had any real guts "
he said the next day," I would have held my hand way up high."
'
He was sitting in front of his locker now, changing his uniform
_ shirt. ·•1 woke up this morning,
it
was ~till on my
mind. You know,
a
lot of ballplayers would wear long hair except it's not convenient it
gets in the way with the cap, and sweating so much. But just beca~se
we're the world champions and good baseball players doesn't mean
we're better Americans than people with.long hair."
I wonder how much honor the city of St. Petersburg
·
really
brought to the Mets on this ceremonious day.
