a
Welcome
This year's freshman class has arrived here under unique
circumstances. With co-education, house system and college union in
full swing, a student can, for the first time, call this institution a
home without tongue in cheek. Gone
is
the zoo show. Gone is the
mass weekend exodus of the horned frogs to the female game
preserves down river. Gone
is
the proverbial "Marist Marine." Any
strolling obseiver soon realizes that people actually are staying here
to enjoy themselves.
Into this atmosphere THE CIRCLE welcomes the class of
'74.
Sieze_
your opportunity. Live and enjoy.
Drugs At
,Marist
The widespread
use
of
drugs at Marist
is
no mystery to anyone
except.the
veiy' naive
'.arid-.
gullible.
-!Us
not difficult. to sco:re,at
practically anytime of the w:eek. T!J.e
· blatant dealing and use of
drugs reflects ·at best a definite lack of sophistic;ation and at worst a
suicidal tendency on the part of some people.
Last year it appeared that some people regarded this campus as a
haven for the "drug culture." But we were rudely awakened in late
spring with the intrusion of the local law enforcement agency. Marist
College is not an oasis in the midst of the abridgement of civil
liberties in Dutchess County. The local constabulary is involved in a
moral crusade against drugs; long-hairs and assorted "degenerates."
They
will
allow nothing, at times even the basic rights allowed to
straights, to stand in their way. There exists in Dutchess County
"nerknock warrants," "John Doe warrants" and extensive use of
narcotics agents in the colleges and
high
schools of the area. The
residence personnel cannot prevent
a
bust, neither ·can the college
administration. The only people who can are those who indulge in
the use of drugs. Don't smoke in the rooms, know who you are
dealing to, or· buying from, know the people you smoke with - when
the word "know" is used it means make sure you can trust them.
(Roommates are not always trustworthy.)
..
·
·
When you use drugs you -nr:,st understand that you face the
chance of being busted. American law is not as enlightened as one
might prefer.
We are not endorsing the use of drugs. In many cases it is a
middle-class cop-out. Mind-expansion is of minimal importance in
comparison to the necessity of ending the genocide of the
Vietnamese people by the American government. Repression and
mounting fascism are-reality. But
if
you insist qn using drugs at least
don't allow yourself to get caught.

to
be. individuals,
and to
encourage their striving toward a

· · In like manner, we, the people
who make up Marist must strive
to provide her with the essentials
to reach
this
goal she seeks. A
combined effort
is
a necessity.
Both students and faculty must

may grow. Administrative as
well as resident policies have
been
changed. They can be
altered further. Someday,
if
the
effort is honestly made, Marist
will
become
a university -
· perhaps not in name - but in
ideas. She
will
educate in a true
sense. She will produce men and
women who, cognizant of their
· humaness
will
make this world
what it should be - an endless
creative process. She will have a
personality and she
will
be aan
adult.

The, Academic Policy Corrtmittee .
is ,
now
in.
it's final ··stage:.
~f
fonnulating a curriculum proposal, which ·
if
passed will . be enacted
next semester: For those of you who
are unfainjliar- with the
proposal, here is a brief outline: The department
in
which ·you
· presently
are a major, will be able to determine up to one half ·or. the
courses which. you
will
take
at Marist; The other half will be elected·
by the ~tudent with the aid.ofan·advisor, withthe exception of
six
credits· of Freshman Seminar and Phys. Ed. The Freshman
Seminar
will
provide a different kind of learning experience. f<?r
. the· student;
one where he will get to know a faculty member on a more personal
basis and also be engaged in a project or«experience" which he and
his faculty-advisor structured jointly..
·. •
. · ~··
·
· It
must" be emphasized that
this
is
only the. structure of the.
proposal. There
is
much work in defining what is going to constitute
the major field requirements in .each department, structuring. the
advisory system
so
as to best serve the · student, planning . the
calendar, and deciding on the grading policy at Marist. Most of these. ·
problems have been discussed and many departments have submitted
their tentative major field· requirements. By the end of September
much of the work is expected to be finalized or nearly finalized. The
Student Academic Committee, which acts
as·
a liason between
students and faculty, will be setting up student-faculty meetings·on a
departmental basis within the next two weeks. Students will be ·
.potified when' and where the meeting will take place'by the student
representatives in each department. They will explain
h
further
detail what the curriculum proposal entails and more important
what each department will. tentatively require in each major field.
Students are urged to be at these meetings because it
will
be their,
last opportunity to voice their opinions and suggestions regarding
this proposal. ·

Board
hi ter.: "What
is
a College
Union'?"
C.U.B.:
«Basically,
it's
a·
general organization· consisting
of . all students, faculty and
admutlstratois." -
-
lqter.:
.. And you
as the
College Union Board are the
elected representatives for that
Union'?"
C.U.B.: ''That's conect. The
Board
is
made up of two faculty
representatives, elected by the
faculty; seven students, elected
by the student body; and of
course
the
Campus
Center
Director."
Inter.:
''What
is
the purpose of
the
C.U.B.?"
C.U.B.: "Actually the Board
has a twofold purpose; first it
is
moving towards a position of
full controi over the Campus
Center, that
is,
all policy making
as it pertains to the
facilities
and
functions of the Campus Center
will
be done by
this
Board. The
second purpose
is
to sponsor and
coordinate all social, cultural,
and educational functions held
in the Campus Center."
Inter.:
«wm
the
C.U.B.
infringe on Student Government
activities'?"
C.U.B.: "No, it
is
a political
oiganization and in fact frees the
Student Government to
be
more
involved in greater academic and .
college wide decisions."
Inter.: "From where does the
C.U.B. obtain its funds?"
C. U .B.:
.. This year
an
appropriation was made by the
Student Government. But next
year, it will have a separate
budget submitted to the College
Budget Committee."
·
Inter.:
"Is
there anything else
the C.U.B. would like to
say_
in
closing?"
.
C.J}.B.: "Only that we hope
everyone has received a copy of
the new semester calendar and
will
enjoy . the many programs,
social and cultural, listed."

SEPTEMBER
11, 1970
. OIi The Shore
. BY
LINDA CLOER
'On
the" shore of solitude (Or. was it emptiness?)
Sat the girl .:· .
.
. And she was encircled tightly in
his
arms ·
._:
and just before the silence
.
· .
could hold
him ever captive
He spoke:.
-
·,
. your fortress,
.
built like a child's sand castle
, _
in the glory of the morning,
_
• dries and crumbles with the 12 o'clock sun,
and is washed away
· by insidious tides.
With a sigh that told
of a thousand different longings,
She opened her eyes:
Like an infant; tiny puppy,
lhuddle close, ·
·
· clinging to your wannth,
and
give tlie name of love,
to whatis merely contact-comfort.
.
And.yet,
I had a lover, once.
God, He was a big man.·
He could change the world,
raise or lower the sky,
and He'd never die.
This
I
knew,
because He said so.
But one.t_light he went away,
and
I awoke with an old man beside me,
who carressed me with faded dreams,
And whispered once-hoped for memories.
.He could never satisfy my needs,
but I suppose my lover's dead. _
By then she realized she was quite alone,
and walking to the water's edge,
reached out to grasp her own reflection: .
Sad and lonely;
creation-child
I give birth to,
· Born of anguish,
My own making, -.
I see mirrored
.
in. soft eyes of madness,
your half~way world. _
,
THE CIRCLE
. Keeping·
Up With _The
'Draft
The draft occasionally makes
front page news._ Everyone lieard
when
Washington
announced
this year's draft calls were not
likely· to . take any men with
lottery
numbers· beyond
195.
But
it · is still difficult
_
for
registrants to find out about the
regulations
by which
the
- Selective
Service
System
classifies draftees and "delivers"
them ., as they like to put it - to
the Army; In fact, Local Board
secretaries
seem
more
overburdened
with paperwork
than ever and have no time to go
over
details
with individual
registrants
or worried parents
who call up or come in- with a
question. So we are glad to give
the
government
an assist in
· publicizing, by means of a brief
summary,_
recent
changes in
Selective Service regulations and
practices.
_
Defennents - The main change
is that new deferments based on
fatherhood are not being given.
"New"· means claims ftled after
April 22, 1970. Still unchanged
are student defennents
(II S
and
II A vocational or apprentice),
deferments · based on extreme
hardship to dependents
(III
A),
mental,
physical or "moral"
disqualifications (I
Y
and IV F)
and the exemption for ministers
and . prospective ministers
(IV
D).
-·
.
Physical Examination - Local
Boards are under instructions
not
to
order
pre-induction
physicals for men with lottery
numbers over 215. However,
if
you want to find out whether
you are phY.sically acceptable,
you can request an examination
through your Local Board. They
are ·supposed to arrange this
within
60 days unless it would
interfere
with
their
main
business: . ._ , .

Revolutionizes
Curriculum
Curricular changes, designed
to give the St. Norbert College
student much greater freedom in
selecting courses and
his
major,
will take effect here this fall.
Each student will- have the
option of personalizing his major
. either
within
a division
(humanities
and
fine
arts,
natural
· sciences,
and social•
sciences)
or by combining
courses from
all
divisions.
Most
students, however, are
expected · to select their major
along conventional disciplinary
lines, although they do have the
option
of choosing a broad
· interdisciplinary
major such as
social science, or even of being a
"nonmajor"
and receive their
degree in general studies. -
Grades will consist of A, B and
C -only,
with
these
grades
retaining
their
traditional
meaning. Students whose work
is
judged to be poor (D) or
failing (F) will receive· no grade
on their transcript.
11te system of 120 credits for
graduation will be abolished in
favor of 32 courses, or four ~ch
semester. Eight· of these must be
selected from divisions outside
the student's major division.

Getting Straight
BY MRS. JACKSON
TURNER
Right on! Oh Wow! What a trip! Golly Gosh! Getting Straight is
really sumthin else. Everybody running and screaming and jumping
and singing. Gosh .
The story centers around an ex-revolutionary student (Elliot
Gould) who
is
caught in the middle of Riots on the Campus of
Abbie Hoffman U. (fonnerly New Paltz) while trying to get his
ma.~ters in hopping into the rack with dollies. Elliot is very good in
his field. Every time El gets tense, he hops into the rack w_ith
whatever chippie
is
in the vicinity. Just like real life.
Elliot's number one
is
Candice Bergen who turns in a great
performance when she
is
not talking. Candice plays a girl who is torn
between the suburban life and the Oh Wow ·existence of her
revolutionary friends. I don't want to be tog harsh on Candice, but
it gets a little tense when her father Edgar fias to move her mouth
for her.
In Getting Straight, the Pigs are in abundance and they beat and
punch and kick and club
all
the kids who in turn, scream and yell
and curse and hit. Everyone
is
running around except the director
who has fallen asleep. Reminds me of the crucial scenes in Beach
Blanket Bikini Boxcar.
The picture ends with everybody together as Candy and Elliot ride
i.1to the sunset in their brand new Rolls-Royces, which we bought
them by seeing this bad picture.
