"If
the 1984 New York State
Democratic Primary were held to-
·
day, for whom would you vote?"
52. 7
percent of those surveyed
chose Mondale.
This
•
was the first poll that
showed Glenn, who was second in
a Marist poll conducted six mon-
.
tbs ago, in third.
The Marist Institute for Public
Opinion has also been featured on
the public television program
"Inside
Albany."
McDonald
watched videotapes of the pro-
gram on Tuesday night, and then
watched Miringofrs
team• at
work.
"I think she was very.impressed
with the college," said Miringoff.
He also said McDonald did not
restrict her questions to only the
institute.
Miringoff said that the success
of his polls are an important start
to getting Marist recognized.
"It's important to establish at
Newsweek arid other places that
Marist exists here,'' he said.
Miringoff also said he believes
that
.
the
institute
epitomizes
"what this college is all about -
theory, practice, and communi-
ty."
Whether McDonald's
report
will be printed in the magazine is
not certain. "In this business,
there's never any guarantees,'!
said Miringoff. ·
Gotfryd was so impressed with
the school that he raised the idea
of coming back with an exhibition
of his work.
Gotfryd
has
been
photographing U.S. presidents
for the past
25
years. His presen-
tation would include pictures of
every
president from Dwight D.
Eisenhower to Ronald Reagan.
Miringoff and his assistants are
not "tracking" polling people to
see what is on their minds. The
sample polls "keep us alert to any
kind of changes that might be go-
ing on,Jt Miringoff said.

must also allow for an area which
will be used to display Lowell

"Mr. Cohen will design the
_building,
keeping in mind several
points, including Marist's current
and projected needs, positioning
and designing the structure so
that it best compliments the rest
of the campus, and finally re-
maining within the constraints of
our budget," Waters said. "As it
stands now, we have approx-
imately $2.5 million from private
donations
to

the

.
According to Tarantino, who
has
been
at
Marist
since
September of last year, Marist has
enough money to construct a
building of approximately
25,000

Mr. Waters said that the
building will be unique and the
focal point of the campus, insofar
as it· will combine the work and
technologies of two rapidly grow-
ing fields, communication arts
and computer science. "We'd like
to start breaking ground for the
structure early this spring, and if
all goes according to plan, open
the building by the Fall semester
of 1985," Waters said.

28 fail to ·meet re·guirements
.by
Paul
Raynls and Cindy Bennedum
In the aftermath of the sudden firing of more than a dozen stu-
.
dent employees from the
.Copy
Center, controversy over tlie' use
of the center still abounds.
Students were fired 'from their jobs after questions concerning
·
the security of fall semester final exams were raised;
·
'
·
·.
Following the final exam scandal, Al Doscher,·managerofthe
Copy Center, posted a memo on the door of the copy room
stating that "students
will
not be permitted to make copies in the
center."
·
.
.
.
· ·
.
·
·
Now, however, Doscher says that students caii request to have
copy-work done at
the
center. "At this point, students can drop
off work and pick itup later," he said.
·
.
Andrew Molloy, academic vice president, said he was told that
a process was being established for students to be able to drop off
work and then receive the copies later.
·
·
Gerard Cox, dean of student affairs, said he was unde_r the
same impression.
·
Many students, however, said that they are unaware that they
:
can once again use the Copy Center.
.
..
·
"I think most people are under the impression that we can't go
near the Copy Center _.:. period,"
said sophomore Nancy
Champlin.
.
Joe Karney, a junior, said he is unconvinced about the Copy
Center's willingness to do work for students.
"I'll be going to job interviews soon," said Karney. "I need
·
resumes and other things copied, and from what I've seen over
the past couple weeks, the copy room probably won't be very
cooperative."
.
Mark Zangari, InterHouse Council president, stressed a need
for the Copy Center to make its exact rules known.
"Student leaders constantly need large amounts of copies
done," he said, "and the Copy Center has done little to make
clear what the specific policy will be in that case.''
Zangari added that unless the system is refined now, w~ile p~o-
ple are still adjusting to the changes, the Copy Center suuauon
will have the potential to go haywire again.
"Students are just beginning to realize that they can actually
drop off work," said Zangari. "Unless they set up a counter
soon where students can drop work off and then be called when
it's c~mpleted, it's going to return to its old ways."

the fall semester for not fulfilling
academic requirements.
Freshman students are required
to maintain a cumulative average
above a 1.7, and upperclassmen
must have at least a 2.0 G.P.A.
Failure to uphold these standards
results in academic probation or
dismissal.
·
According to Elizabeth Nolan,
·
director
of student
academic
affairs,
the
number
of
last
semester's
dismissals is about

students. In June dismissals range
from 80 to 100 students.
"The bulk of the student body
is up for review after the spring
semester in June," said Nolan.
.
In the freshman class, three
students
were
dismissed
·
for
academic reasons. The remainder
of dismissals
were
evenly divided
throughout
sophomores
and
juniors.
"Hardly any senio_rs are ever
on probation or are academically
dismissed,"
said Nolan. "Most
seniors
have
met
their
requirements and work hard to
maintain them."
According to Nolan, the major
problem is that students don't
know what is taken into con-
sideration
in
their
academic
review. "Students
don't realize

Nolan.
"They

from the early
years in college, that they have to
take academics seriously."

said Nolan.
"There is every attempt
to

students a fair review and take

stated that the Academic

dismiss students from Marist is
concerned with two factors. The

and have a semester to make up
for it. This isn't always true.
"There is no policy that states a
student is entitled to a semester of
probation," said Nolan.
The decision to put a student on
probation or to dismiss a student
is up to the Academic
Review
Board. The Board consists of
four or five faculty members who
change periodically on a rotating
basis. Nolan is the chairwoman,

The other concern, according
to Nolan, is to maintain the high
standards of Marist.
"A

from Marist represents a qualit}
education," she said.
Students can
be readmitted
after academic dismissal until one
full semester has passed. These
students. must attend
another
college and must bring back to
Marist
evidence of successful
study there. "This is a minimal
·
requirement
for readmittance,"
said Nolan.
"They must also
show that they "have a clearer
sense of academic goals and a

or
doffing our shoes
to enter the Dome of the Rock in
Jerusalem; helping an Arab lad
push a cart of fresh bread many
times his size up a steep Jerusalem
street. The climax was the last
night when the men and the
women contested for first honors
in presenting a skit about the
events of the prior
two
weeks.

"Go ahead, tell him" I told
Ken.
"I'd rather riot," said Ken.
"Tell me what?" said Sean.
"Kenny says none of us really
exist."
Now that the secret was out,
Kenny seemed anxious to hear
Sean's reaction after all. Sean
thought it over a while before giv-
ing his opinion.
"No s---," said Sean.
"See? See? I knew he wouldn't
take it seriously. Well, I'll tell you
one thing, Mr. Triviality, you
won't be so damned glib when
you wake up one day and you're
not there!"
"Mr. Triviality?" I said. Sean
had been called many things, but
this was a first.
"And another thing," Ken con-
tinued, "not only don't we exist,
but nothing else exists either
because you can't prove that it
does."
"You're taking Introduction to
Ethics, aren't you?" asked Sean.
"Never mind that," said Ken,
really annoyed now. "You pro-
bably don't even care about the
human condition.''
"That's not true," said Sean.
"Everybody should eat right and
get plenty of exercise."
"Oh, this is hopeless," said
poor, misunderstood
Ken,

ing off all frustrated.
"It's
hopeless!"
It's not, of course. Everybody
gets over Ethics after the course is
over, and Sophomores' Disease is
gone within a semester or so. In
fact, I know a lot of people here
at Marist who never had either
problem.

Hotel to _be erected.--·
near Main Mall
by Terry Abad
A Hilton hotel will be built ad-
jacent to the Mid-Hudson Civic
Center on Market
Street in
Poughkeepsie. Construction will
begin in April of this year.
_
The announcement was made
on Jan. 9 by the vice president of
the W .J. Barney Corporation,
Charles McQueeney. The Barney
Corporation· will build the new
13-story, 245 room hotel. The
construction company also built
the downtown office building
located across from the civic
center.
The hotel will be located on 1.1
acres that the City_of Poughkeep-
sie owns at the southwest end of
Market Street, next to the west-
bound arterial highway.
According to McQueeney, the
project, which was initially ·pro-
posed
10
years ago, will cost an
estimated
$17 .5
million.
Initial construction of the hotel
had begun in
1978
but was stop-
ped because of the death of Frank
Eberhard who was instrumental
in the construction of the hotel. It
was · being built as part of
downtown
Poughkeepsie's
redevelopment efforts.
The W.J. Barney Corporation
took' over the project• after
Eberhard's death, but had trouble
raising money necessary to build
the hotel.
Merchants employed near the
· site of the new hotel said they felt
that the project will benefit the
area. Peggy Lay of Sigalow Op-
tometrists located on the Main
Mall said, "I think the hotel will
make things a lot better, they
can't get any worse.
Maybe the
hotel will be able to revitalize the
business district and clean up the
city_"

Priest reaches
kids
through rock music
·
by
Tim Graham
Father· Harry Schlitt, dir'ector of development
for The Catholic Telecommunications Network ·
..
of America, was the guest speaker at a brunch
·
held by the campus·ministry in the pub last Sun-
day.
but I mostly talked about
.rock
music and the
messages that were contained iil the songs."
·
:
Father Harry seems to have found a way to
talk to teenagers through things that they can
relate to. "When· I was growing up, rock and roll
was a ghetto expression for sexual intercourse,
now it is a universal phrase. The song ideas
haven't changed much since my day, but the·
meanings of the phrases have changed. I take the
words
-and.
phrases from the songs and put my
message into those words."
How to get the look
that gets the looks
· Father Harry, who is best known for
·the
na-
.
tiorially syndicated
·
radio
.·
broadcast titled
FATHER
HARRY:
GOD SQUAD, for which he
has won three Emmy Awards, spoke on the topic
of radio and television in the commercial market
with an emphasis on Music TV (MTV).
Father Harry stumbled upon this method of
communicating his sermons to the public just by
chance. "When I graduated from the seminary I
became a high school teacher and counselor. The
,
father of one of my students is a program direc-
·'
tor at a radio station. His son told him that he
was impressed with the way I could communicate
with the students. His father invited me to the sta-
tion and I started doing three, five-minute shows
a week ... I could talk about whatever I wanted to,
it seems as though Father Harry has stumbled
upon something. He started out doing three, five-
minute shows a week in St. Louis, Missouri, and
now reaches 60 million people weekly on over·
1200 stations nationwide.
.
"He captured my attention with his easy going
manner," said Paul Raynis, a.sophomore from
Rockaway, N.J. "I think he's a lot different than
some other priests, he· seems to understand the
younger generation~ which makes it easier for the
kids to relate to him," Raynis said.

Commenting on the Marist
breakdown against FDU, Peelor
said of his players, "There is
good hockey talent, but we're not
a team yet because we lack the ice
time for practice.
"In
a fast moving sport like
hockey, ice time is needed,"
Peelor said. "We just don't have
a big enough budget."

carpet was worth close to
$500,
and I just hope that it is retur-
ned," said Heywood. "It can
only help those
·
who took the
carpet if it is returned, but if not,
and we find out who is respon-
sible, the punishment will be
severe," he said.
Heywood said there are no
plans or money to replace the
carpet in the near future, and
Gross added that each of the
students who live in Champagnat
will be fined for the carpet.
"We can't blame the floor
where the carpet was taken from,
but we do feel that someone in the
buiiding knows what happened to
it. Hopefully that person will
come forward and save the people
in the building a lot of money,"
said Gross.
The reaction from the students
in House II was mixed. Greg
Guidetti, a sophomore, said, "To
tell you the truth, I didn't even
notice."
"I think less people ·use the
lounge now that the rug is gone,"
said Sue Lecki, a sophomore
from Nutley, N.J.
Ian
O'Connor,
a
com-
munications major who lives on
the fourth floor said, "I don't
think we should be charged for
the carpet, because they searched
the rooms and it wasn't found
.in
the building."
.
A similiar situation occurred
almost three years ago to the day,
when the carpet in the second
floor lounge was stolen in
1981.
The carpet was recovered from an
off campus apartment in Dutch
Gardens though, soon after.
Gross was a senior at Marist at
that time and remembers the
situation well. "The carpets had
just been added to the lounges to
make them more of a gathering
place for students, and· people
couldn't believe that one was
stolen less then a day after it was
put in," she said.

University, the men's basketball team
heads into the. final stretch of the season

watched videotapes of the pro-

watched Miringofrs

work.
"I think she was very.impressed
with the college," said Miringoff.
He also said McDonald did not
restrict her questions to only the
institute.
Miringoff said that the success
of his polls are an important start
to getting Marist recognized.
"It's important to establish at
Newsweek arid other places that
Marist exists here,'' he said.
Miringoff also said he believes
that

epitomizes
"what this college is all about -
theory, practice, and communi-
ty."
Whether McDonald's
report
will be printed in the magazine is
not certain. "In this business,

Gotfryd was so impressed with
the school that he raised the idea

.by
Paul
Raynls and Cindy Bennedum
In the aftermath of the sudden firing of more than a dozen stu-
.
dent employees from the
.Copy
Center, controversy over tlie' use
of the center still abounds.
Students were fired 'from their jobs after questions concerning
·
the security of fall semester final exams were raised;
·
'
·
·.
Following the final exam scandal, Al Doscher,·managerofthe
Copy Center, posted a memo on the door of the copy room
stating that "students
will
not be permitted to make copies in the
center."
·
.
.
.
· ·
.
·
·
Now, however, Doscher says that students caii request to have
copy-work done at
the
center. "At this point, students can drop
off work and pick itup later," he said.
·
.
Andrew Molloy, academic vice president, said he was told that
a process was being established for students to be able to drop off
work and then receive the copies later.
·
·
Gerard Cox, dean of student affairs, said he was unde_r the
same impression.
·
Many students, however, said that they are unaware that they
:
can once again use the Copy Center.
.
..
·
"I think most people are under the impression that we can't go
near the Copy Center _.:. period,"
said sophomore Nancy
Champlin.
.
Joe Karney, a junior, said he is unconvinced about the Copy
Center's willingness to do work for students.
"I'll be going to job interviews soon," said Karney. "I need
·
resumes and other things copied, and from what I've seen over
the past couple weeks, the copy room probably won't be very
cooperative."
.
Mark Zangari, InterHouse Council president, stressed a need
for the Copy Center to make its exact rules known.
"Student leaders constantly need large amounts of copies
done," he said, "and the Copy Center has done little to make
clear what the specific policy will be in that case.''
Zangari added that unless the system is refined now, w~ile p~o-
ple are still adjusting to the changes, the Copy Center suuauon
will have the potential to go haywire again.
"Students are just beginning to realize that they can actually
drop off work," said Zangari. "Unless they set up a counter
soon where students can drop work off and then be called when
it's c~mpleted, it's going to return to its old ways."

The Academic
Review.
Board
dismissed 28 Marist students after
the fall semester for not fulfilling
academic requirements.
Freshman students are required
to maintain a cumulative average
above a 1.7, and upperclassmen
must have at least a 2.0 G.P.A.
Failure to uphold these standards
results in academic probation or
dismissal.
·
According to Elizabeth Nolan,
·
director
of student
academic
affairs,
the
number
of
last
semester's
dismissals is about
average.
In J ariuary the number
usually
ranges
from 30 to 40.
students. In June dismissals range
from 80 to 100 students.
"The bulk of the student body
is up for review after the spring
semester in June," said Nolan.
.
In the freshman class, three
students
were
dismissed
·
for
academic reasons. The remainder
of dismissals
were
evenly divided
throughout
sophomores
and
juniors.
"Hardly any senio_rs are ever
on probation or are academically
dismissed,"
said Nolan. "Most
seniors
have
met
their
requirements and work hard to
maintain them."
According to Nolan, the major
problem is that students don't
know what is taken into con-
sideration
in
their
academic
review. "Students
don't realize
their grades are
.
cumulative, if
they fail a course first semester
freshman year, it continues to
have an impact throughout the
rest of their college year," said
Nolan.
"They
need
to
un-
derstand,
riiht
from the early
years in college, that they have to
take academics seriously."
· She also said that students
often
don't
understand
how
critical failure in a course can be.

family• problems,"
said Nolan.
"There is every attempt
to
give
students a fair review and take
all
factors into consideration."
Nolan
stated that the Academic
Review
Board's
decision
to
dismiss students from Marist is
concerned with two factors. The
first is for the student's
best
interest. "It's a very expensive

.

and have a semester to make up
for it. This isn't always true.
"There is no policy that states a
student is entitled to a semester of
probation," said Nolan.
The decision to put a student on
probation or to dismiss a student
is up to the Academic
Review
Board. The Board consists of
four or five faculty members who
change periodically on a rotating
basis. Nolan is the chairwoman,
and
doesn't
particiapte
in
deliberation except to give the
board the information required.
Waivers have been given to
students
in certain situations.
"We
take
into
consideration
emotional problems, health and
mistake
if
the student
isn't
learning," said Nolan.
The other concern, according
to Nolan, is to maintain the high
standards of Marist.
"A
diploma
from Marist represents a qualit}
education," she said.
Students can
be readmitted
after academic dismissal until one
full semester has passed. These
students. must attend
another
college and must bring back to
Marist
evidence of successful
study there. "This is a minimal
·
requirement
for readmittance,"
said Nolan.
"They must also
show that they "have a clearer
sense of academic goals and a
firm plan of study."

"Go ahead, tell him" I told
Ken.
"I'd rather riot," said Ken.
"Tell me what?" said Sean.
"Kenny says none of us really
exist."
Now that the secret was out,
Kenny seemed anxious to hear
Sean's reaction after all. Sean
thought it over a while before giv-
ing his opinion.
"No s---," said Sean.
"See? See? I knew he wouldn't
take it seriously. Well, I'll tell you
one thing, Mr. Triviality, you
won't be so damned glib when
you wake up one day and you're
not there!"
"Mr. Triviality?" I said. Sean
had been called many things, but
this was a first.
"And another thing," Ken con-
tinued, "not only don't we exist,
but nothing else exists either
because you can't prove that it
does."
"You're taking Introduction to
Ethics, aren't you?" asked Sean.
"Never mind that," said Ken,
really annoyed now. "You pro-
bably don't even care about the
human condition.''
"That's not true," said Sean.
"Everybody should eat right and
get plenty of exercise."
"Oh, this is hopeless," said
poor, misunderstood
Ken,
stamp-
ing off all frustrated.
"It's
hopeless!"
It's not, of course. Everybody
gets over Ethics after the course is
over, and Sophomores' Disease is
gone within a semester or so. In
fact, I know a lot of people here
at Marist who never had either
problem.

But they all have a selfless
dedication to wild weekends, and
theirs is another story entirely.

Hotel to _be erected.--·
near Main Mall
by Terry Abad
A Hilton hotel will be built ad-
jacent to the Mid-Hudson Civic
Center on Market
Street in
Poughkeepsie. Construction will
begin in April of this year.
_
The announcement was made
on Jan. 9 by the vice president of
the W .J. Barney Corporation,
Charles McQueeney. The Barney
Corporation· will build the new
13-story, 245 room hotel. The
construction company also built
the downtown office building
located across from the civic
center.
The hotel will be located on 1.1
acres that the City_of Poughkeep-
sie owns at the southwest end of
Market Street, next to the west-
bound arterial highway.
According to McQueeney, the
project, which was initially ·pro-
posed
10
years ago, will cost an
estimated
$17 .5
million.
Initial construction of the hotel
had begun in
1978
but was stop-
ped because of the death of Frank
Eberhard who was instrumental
in the construction of the hotel. It
was · being built as part of
downtown
Poughkeepsie's
redevelopment efforts.
The W.J. Barney Corporation
took' over the project• after
Eberhard's death, but had trouble
raising money necessary to build
the hotel.
Merchants employed near the
· site of the new hotel said they felt
that the project will benefit the
area. Peggy Lay of Sigalow Op-
tometrists located on the Main
Mall said, "I think the hotel will
make things a lot better, they
can't get any worse.
Maybe the
hotel will be able to revitalize the
business district and clean up the
city_"

Priest reaches
kids
through rock music
·
by
Tim Graham
Father· Harry Schlitt, dir'ector of development
for The Catholic Telecommunications Network ·
..
of America, was the guest speaker at a brunch
·
held by the campus·ministry in the pub last Sun-
day.
but I mostly talked about
.rock
music and the
messages that were contained iil the songs."
·
:
Father Harry seems to have found a way to
talk to teenagers through things that they can
relate to. "When· I was growing up, rock and roll
was a ghetto expression for sexual intercourse,
now it is a universal phrase. The song ideas
haven't changed much since my day, but the·
meanings of the phrases have changed. I take the
words
-and.
phrases from the songs and put my
message into those words."
How to get the look
that gets the looks
· Father Harry, who is best known for
·the
na-
.
tiorially syndicated
·
radio
.·
broadcast titled
FATHER
HARRY:
GOD SQUAD, for which he
has won three Emmy Awards, spoke on the topic
of radio and television in the commercial market
with an emphasis on Music TV (MTV).
Father Harry stumbled upon this method of
communicating his sermons to the public just by
chance. "When I graduated from the seminary I
became a high school teacher and counselor. The
,
father of one of my students is a program direc-
·'
tor at a radio station. His son told him that he
was impressed with the way I could communicate
with the students. His father invited me to the sta-
tion and I started doing three, five-minute shows
a week ... I could talk about whatever I wanted to,
it seems as though Father Harry has stumbled
upon something. He started out doing three, five-
minute shows a week in St. Louis, Missouri, and
now reaches 60 million people weekly on over·
1200 stations nationwide.
.
"He captured my attention with his easy going
manner," said Paul Raynis, a.sophomore from
Rockaway, N.J. "I think he's a lot different than
some other priests, he· seems to understand the
younger generation~ which makes it easier for the
kids to relate to him," Raynis said.

minutes to go
'in
the game, only to
see it collapse rapidly. FDU rattl-
ed off seven straight goals and
won 13-8.
Commenting on the Marist
breakdown against FDU, Peelor
said of his players, "There is
good hockey talent, but we're not
a team yet because we lack the ice
time for practice.
"In
a fast moving sport like
hockey, ice time is needed,"
Peelor said. "We just don't have
a big enough budget."

carpet was worth close to
$500,
and I just hope that it is retur-
ned," said Heywood. "It can
only help those
·
who took the
carpet if it is returned, but if not,
and we find out who is respon-
sible, the punishment will be
severe," he said.
Heywood said there are no
plans or money to replace the
carpet in the near future, and
Gross added that each of the
students who live in Champagnat
will be fined for the carpet.
"We can't blame the floor
where the carpet was taken from,
but we do feel that someone in the
buiiding knows what happened to
it. Hopefully that person will
come forward and save the people
in the building a lot of money,"
said Gross.
The reaction from the students
in House II was mixed. Greg
Guidetti, a sophomore, said, "To
tell you the truth, I didn't even
notice."
"I think less people ·use the
lounge now that the rug is gone,"
said Sue Lecki, a sophomore
from Nutley, N.J.
Ian
O'Connor,
a
com-
munications major who lives on
the fourth floor said, "I don't
think we should be charged for
the carpet, because they searched
the rooms and it wasn't found
.in
the building."
.
A similiar situation occurred
almost three years ago to the day,
when the carpet in the second
floor lounge was stolen in
1981.
The carpet was recovered from an
off campus apartment in Dutch
Gardens though, soon after.
Gross was a senior at Marist at
that time and remembers the
situation well. "The carpets had
just been added to the lounges to
make them more of a gathering
place for students, and· people
couldn't believe that one was
stolen less then a day after it was
put in," she said.
