of "The Odd Couple", which was

Marist laugh. Isn't that what's
important? Who cares if Murray
the cop was stiff; or if Vinnie
frizzled? I must confess, had I
been in the review, I probably
would have been tense or too rigid
or something else. Who cares?
The most important issue in the Marist
College community is a review on
"The
Odd
Couple."· The Circle received
more
responses to
this recent review than any
story published this year. Pregnancy was
clo~e, Reagan's financial aid cuts were far
behind
_
and The Middle States evaluation
didn't even offer a challenge.
The priorities of Marist College students
must serio!Jsly be questioned. Friends of
ours may not be able to afford to attend
sch<:>ol next year. Friends of ours may be
~etting pregnant. Friends of ours could be

but ,t doesn t t~ke an experienced actor to
spot a weak performance. Was "The Odd
Couple" a
weak performance? That
q~~stion is to be answered by the in-
d1v1dual. The Circle review attempted to
show both the positive and negative
aspects of the performance.
.
The review was not mea~t to put down
any individual involved
in
"The
Odd
Couple." The members of the
MCCTA seem
to believe that The Circle or the reviewer has
a personal vendetta against them. We are all
fellow Marist students. The Circle has put
out good issues and poor issues.

petition which calls for the

Beth Goldring, asst. professor of In-

two other students, Vikki Keene ancl
Karen Lund, are currently collecting
signatures for the petition.
.
Partridge said, "We don't feel it's
justified that such a good teacher as
Beth Goldring should be fired. We plan
to take any steps necessary to bring
about her re-hiring."
The reaction of many students to the
pet1uon has been very positive, ac-
cording to Partri~ge. "Just about all
the students are supportive if they know
her." Partridge said. "A couple have

hired. ''We want this to be a precedent

The tuition waiver allows all full-time
employees working at Marist for at least
four months to take classes tuition free.
· After the employee completes two years of
full-time work, any dependent is eligible
for a full tuition break.
Faculty and administrators' dependents
that enroll in any institution other than
Marist, may receive up to $1,000 per year
toward the tuition. Other staff dependents
may receive up to $800 per year toward
tuition at another college.
According to Marc Adin, personnel
director, the tuition benefit program is an
important source of motivation .
.
"If it
attracts high Qllc!lity employees to Marist,
it will benefit all students by the quality of
service available," Adin said.
·
Junior Mary Anne Griffin, daughter of
faculty member John Griffin, has been
taking advantage of the waiver since her
early admission in I 978.
"My parents
.
never pushed me to come to Marist.
I
could go where ever I wanted. But the
tuition break has helped," Griffin said.
Some students, like senior Nancy
Wysong, questioned the fairness of the
tuition break. "I could see some benefits,
but not free tuition just because you are
related to someone who works here,"
Wysong said.
One other student, Teri Callahan, a
.junior, said,
"I
wouldn't condemn
any
of
the students that are in the tuition benefit
program;
·
however, I feel that the money
could be distributed among a greater
number of students in need of financial
assistance."
Ted Perrotte, a tmtton free student,
defended the program.
"I
think it is fair.
The only advantage a private school has is
to
provide a benefit such as this.''
For certain employees, a key benefit for
working at Marist is the chance for
themselves and their dependents to get a
free education. "I am planning. to take
part time classes since tuition is in-
creasing," said Maria Smith, student
accounts clerk at the
.
business office.
"You'd be a fool not to take advantage of
it," Smith said.
In addition to the tuition break benefit,
Marist has enrolled in a tuition exchange
program. This program allows children of
full-time faculty to attend another school,
·
if a child of a faculty member of the other
school
-
will come to Marist. According to
Adin, 507 students nationwide participate
in this type of program.
While the exchange procedures are still
being developed, Adin said he hopes to see
it gel under way as soon as possible.

1981-82 MARIST COLLEGE
FINAL BASKETBALL STAT~
(12-14)
By
Paul Palmer
If most people heard that a basketball
team finished 12-14 on the year; they would
call it a bad season. But in the case of the
Marist College Red Fox men's basketball
team,
the
·
season was at
worst,
dissapointing.

·
The disappointed

ones are those who
hoped the team would make the ECAC
playoffs in their first season in Division
I.
Others saw a teanf that was 0-11 versus
Division I opponents one year ago turn
it
·
around to a 12-14 mark.
Marist started the year off well with a
3-1
mark after their first four games. Those
wins
included two in
the Greater
Poughkeepsie Auto Dealers Classic at
Marist in December.
·
Marist even managed to find itself in
first place in the Metro Division but
_t
hen
had a falling out and found themselves
near the bot!om
.
Marist sealed their own
fate by dropping seven of their final eight
'
conference games.
-
According to assistant
·
coach Dan
Bernstein, the season which is normally a
building block, was a success. "Fourteen
schools moved to Division
I
this year and
we finished ,vith the second best
·
record of
the14."
Marist saw several players earn indiviual
honors this year. Among them was the
selection of Daryl Powell as the MVP of
the Auto Dealers Classic. Powell also set a
school record with
·
his 43 point per-
formance against Wagner College.

becoming Marist's all-time leading scorer
in his junior year. To top it all off, Smith
was named to the all-conference team.
evident. He was refering to the number of
wins that his team had in Division I.
Freshman guard Bruce Johnson also
established a record in his first year.
Johnson had an outstanding 194 assists this
season to set the single season assist mark
for any Marist player.
Several players
.
contributed enormously
to the marist drive during the season.
Among them were Ronnie Ryan and Ted
Taylor who were the Marist strength on the
·
rebounding game, along with Smith and
Powell
.
·
While Marist didn't manage to make the
ECAC Metro-South playoffs they did
manage to put together an exciting season
of basketball for their fans. Marist lost
nine games by a total of 21 points.
They finished the season at
6-9

After all the facts are examined and all
the critics are settled in their decision on the
season for Marist, one thing has to be said;
in their first year in Division I basketball
Marist may have fallen short of their goal
of reaching the playoffs but they did
manage to earn themselves a lot of respect.
Now all there is left to do is sit and wait in
anticipatation for next year and see how
the Foxes do.
Powell teamed with Marists' outstanding
junior guard Steve Smith to make Marist
the only school in the country to have two
players in the top thirty in scoring. The two
averaged 20.7 and 21 points per game,
respectively.

Also aiding Marist was Keith Denis who,

Between the Lines
Women in tl1e. spotligl1t
By Bill Travers
I· guess one of the jobs of being .sports
editor is admitting that I made a mistake.
There is a ~ertain team that has just
completed their season at
21~10,
their finest
season ever. The Circle has neglected to
give this team the amount of exposure that
is deserved. So to Sue Deer and her team
the entire sports staff congratulates you o~
a job well done.
The Marist College women's basketball
team has played superbly all year and have
been limited to extremely short stories and
small lieadlines. Blame could be given to
my sportswriters for not attending the
games, but its too late for that.
Although the season is over, it's time to
give credit where credit is due!
Marist was led throughout the year by
newcomers Diana Jones, Lynne Griffin,
and Ursula Winter. Jones is a junior center
who - transferred from Dutchess Com-
munity College._ She led the squad in
scoring (15.3), rebounding
(7.7)~
steals
· (5.4) and free throw percentage(.
788).
Griffin, a freshman, finished behind
- Jones in scoring- with an average of 15
points per game, 6.5 rebounds,
3.5 steals,
and led the team with five assists per game.
Winter · topped Marist in field goal per-
centage (.539), was third off the boards
(5.3) and fourth in scoring(l
1.1). ·-
The senior backcourt d.uo of Mary Zuvic
and Lois Ann Hayes provided leadership
and scoring. Zuvic was third on the team in
scoring
(1
_1.8) and Hayes was fifth (7 .8),
and combined for nearly 200 assists.· Also
in the backcourt was Laurie Hrebenak
netting 5.9 points per game and dishing off
74 assists. ·
-
The bench played a significant role
during the year led by part-time starter, co-
captain Lolita Silva, who collected
4.9
points and 4.3 rebounds per contest. Joyce
lacullo and Shawna Walega both saw a lot
of action in the back court.
The squad narrowly m_issed a berth in the
AJA W
Tournament as Northeastern and
Rhode Island edged them out. The team
received a lot of consideration for post-
season play, especially after they defeated a
strong Seton Hall five, 66-64. But, .Marist
was hurt by the fact that their schedule
consisted of numerous Division II and III
teams. St. John's and Providence were the
'other two teams in the North east to ad-
vance.
Deer.is anticipating~ league change and
upgrading .the schedule for next season
