'A
foot more
will bury us'
By Lark Landon
The heavy snowfall of January
19, 1978,
"did occur quite
a bit of
expense" according to Andrew
Pavelko, Marist's maintenance
director.
Plowing began that night by the
maintenance staff, which con-
tinued to work 16 hour days on
Friday and
·
Saturday. Main-
tenance worked an eight-hour
day on Sunday and the campus
was finally cleared for the
arriving students after thirty-two
hours overtime.
Marist has no snow removal
equipment, only snow plowing
vehicles.
It
was necessary to rent
snow
removal equipment to clear
the parking lots and roadways.
An
operator and equipment were
rented for $30 per hour,
·
and
worked a total of 40 hours.
Three snow plowing vehicles
owned by Marist were an ad-
ditional cost when they broke
down because of the overload of
work and needed mechanical
repair. Two vehicles were im-
mediately repaired. Shortly
afterwards, the third was able to
assist in the snow removal
.
"As
of now," said Pavelko, "all our
equipment is in the working
order."
· In the event of future snowfalls,
the snow on
.
campus will be
removed.
If
·
the maintenance
grounds budget cannot afford to
finance snow removal, it will be
provided for by Marist and will
not affect the custodial and
heating budgets allocated to the
maintenance
department.
"We're in good condition to cope
with it," said Pavelko, provided
there is not a 12-inch snowfall,
· ·otherwise outside help will
again be needed".

Nassau seats released
By Maria Troiano
Twenty-seven of the 30 seats on
the Easter break trip to Nassau
were
released
yesterday,
because of a lack of inouiries.
Dolly Bodick, coordinator

of
college activities, said according
to the terms of the charter ser-
vice sponsoring the trip, she had
to release any seats which did not
have the -$100 non-refundable

Bodick said she felt student

Lambert said he discovered the

it could not meet its deadline
.
He
said the locks will be installed
immediately when they arrive,
probably next week.
Two mechanics, along with Bob

guard, will install the locks at a
rate of <>ne floor per day, said
Lambert.
The new system is more secure

The library's original student
worker budget was $6,000 for the
spring semester which included
200 student hours
_
per week,
according to
,
Toscano. The
reduction to 135 student hours
should save approximately $2,250
out of the library's $49,375 yearly
operating budget, hopefully off-
setting any increases, said
.
Toscano. He said he realized this
will mean more work for the staff
and that students will have to
plan a little more in using the
library when it

in operation.

Lambert said the new policy

Lambert
said in

Yearbook

By

The Reynard, Marist College's
yearbook is using its Student
Government budget allocation to
pay off part of a debt of about
$12,000
which has accumulated
over the last
11
years, according
to editor Suzanne Galucci.
The Revnard was supposed to
have
$3,000
allocated to it from
the
Student
Government
Treasury in order to help pay for.
the cost of producing the book.
However, since the campus
business office has asked that the
Reynard debt be paid, the money
that would normally be going to

the Reynard is instead going
entirely to the business office.
This procedure takes care of a
good portion of a large debt, but
leaves the Reynard with no
money to work with forthis year.
Galucci said, ··we're working on
a
O
base budget." In addition, this
year's Reynard is costing more
than was.expected. The projected
cost of $9,750 is well above the
$8,000
expense of a year ago.
In an effort to compensate for
the added cost, the Reynard
editor has ordered 600 books for
this year,
100
more than were
sold last year,· and says she

Career Workshops
By
Margaret Schubert
The Career Counsel Office
offers valuable opportunity for
Marist ·students, according to
Larry
Snyder,
placement
director of the office.
Snyder has worked in the
career office for three years. He
works with Pat Lennahan, career
counselor, and Debbie Page, a
senior student intern.
Besides offering part time
employment for Marist students,
the career office organizes
career information days, campus
recruitment programs, job
preparation workshops, aptitude
testing and evaluations, Snyder
said.
Snyder is responsible for
making the job contacts for
prospective
graduates.
..
A
recruitment bulletin is sent to the
senior class listing the available
· positions
-and ..
:r,equir~ents-and
from their responses interviews
are arranged, ".,he
said.
NO'
statistics are available on
the
number of graduates placed
in jobs through the career office.
··They take
a
lot of time. effort
and money," Snyder said.
"l
sent
questionnaires to all grads twice
a year for two years and we
weren't getting enough feedback
to make a judgement on how
many got their jobs through our
services, so I discontinued
them", he said.
Snyder also plans career in-
formation days, where company
representatives discuss job
related information with the
students.
Page is responsible for job
preparation workshops. She
teaches students how to prepare
for the job market; how to write a
resume, compile a reference
folder, and prepare for the civil
service exams.
··Not many people realize what
this office can do for them", Page
said. "Having a job description

this past week. Cervonie, 27, a
teacher from Rhinebeck, New
York will begin his duties im-

in order to get his team
ready for the season which is less
than two months away. His hiring
fills the void left by the

would also like to see lacrosse
grow in this area the way it did in
Long Island when I was playing. I

Marist could be influential in the
growth of lacrosse up here.
Cervonie said he would be at
Marist this week taking in-

scrimmage against the Dutchess
County Lacrosse Club has
already been scheduled and the
new coach is looking for others.

Cervonie, who is originally
from Linbrook, Long Island has
been involved with lacrosse since
he began playing in 1963. He
played in high school and college
and coached at Linbrook high
school for six years. ,
In coming to Marist, Cervonie
said he realized· the Red Foxes
were not a very experienced
team and to make up for that his
squad would play a hustling,
aggressive game. He said after
the initial year he would. try to
upgrade

It's Our Choice
Our world is changing.
_Change never "just happens". People change
the world whether we like it or not. The only real
- question is whether we want the world to be the
way other people make
it
or to be the way we
make it.
_
Our choice is to shape the world we live in or to
go along with whatever happens and make the
best of it. But nobody can do anything until they
know what it is they want.
· It
isn't just you and.I who ask ourselves what
we want from life. Every human asks and an-
swers this question whenever important
decisiogs come up and important decisions keep
coming up: Marriage, job change, first child,
death, misunderstanding, friendship
~
every
event drives us to ask again and again what it is
we want from life.
Life
is such a precarious affair. Whether we
ask ourselves.what we want from it or not, life is
short and ends suddenly, surprisingly, remor-
sefully. . While
we
are alive,
our ac~
.complishments are not the things that make us
great. What makes one great is something inside
of us, something which for want of a better
description, is known as lo\'e.
Accomplishments do not build a personality,
and the things we do are not the reason for our
relationship to people.

In a growirW, cha~ing, challenging world, we
all have a wide choice of careers, of marriage
partners, of belief, and of values. But no matter
how wide a choice and how many options, we

stealing tunes because each person is able to sing

Booze
To the Editors:
I must say last weeks issue was
a total disgrace to '._Marist
College. People wonder why
Marist has the reputation of
being a drinking school. Now they
know why and they can thank the
Circle for it!
Do you really think people are
interested in someone else
drinking 324 shots of beer? Or "27
12
ounce cans?" You must be
joking.
Then to top it off these two were_
given honorable mention as
athletes of the week. Beer
drinking may be quite a sport at
Marist but
I would think there are
more worthwliile events going on
here that don't get space

over when they had to hold on to it
the most. Petro explains it as a
lack of ··gaml;! awareness," and
the lack of a "team leader."
Regardless, Petro and the Red
Foxes found themselves in a hole,
because now they had to
_
win.
The resignations from the team
by Ollie
Jones and
Neil
Lajeunesse over playing time
served to make that hole deeper.
To them, ]:>etro says that he
wants to go with youth, because
that's where the future lies. Yet
·
th"e young players aren't all
.ready to play varsity ball
because they need more ex-
perience. But they can't get
experience because there is no
junior varsity for them to develop
on: And Petro explains the reason
for no junior varsity is because he
isn't alloted
·
enough money, yet
the varsity team gets scheduled
for 26 games.
The Red Foxes have been 2-3
over the last five games, not-quite
.500,
but a lot closer than 0-10.
While the team has showed
improvement over the last five
games,
·
plenty of teams have five
game streaks, where they win all
five. Nevertheless, the team
is
still under a lot of pressure, and
maybe that
'
is unrightly so,
because maybe cofich Petro was
·-
~
calling for success to come a little
too fast.
He admits that he might have
gone
overboard· when
he
predicted ,20-victories, ·bilt
·
the
fact
is that by saying the team
will be good enough to win twenty
games, he put pressure on the
team to perform before all tlle
players got to know how each
other played.
Petro is now looking at up-
coming gamt!s · against Siena,
Trenton State, and C.W.·?ost, so
that the Red Foxes might be able
to follow last season's pattern
and earn some respectability by
pulling off the big upset ...
·
However, the little games sand-
wiched between the fewer big
games are just as, if not more
important.

Two
captains resign
By Regina
Clarkin
Starting the season with 18
players and a prediction of 20
wins coach Ron Petro's Red
Foxes have come a long way - all
downhill. With a record of 2-12 to
date, and 11 games remaining,
the team now consists of 11
players.
The team, with- two seniors,
( captain Rich Crwnp and Glynn
Berry, who rejoined the team
after
meeting

·
requirements), lost two veteran
players,
I
seniors Neil Lajeunesse
and Ollie Jones) before the
Christmas break. A third player,
junior transfer Charles Cwn-
mings resigned Tuesday. The
team
·
also lost freshman Arnold
Schuman, Jeff Heim
and
sophomore Jack McHale due to
academic reasons.
"I
could've contributed more if
I weren't sitting on the bench"
said Lajeunesse. He said he was
so frustrated that be didn't want
to talk it out with Petro. "I love to
play, have a fair shake and I
wasn't getting a fair shake."
The two other players also felt
they weren't getting enough
playing time. Petro
·
says ex-
perience wasn't making the
difference, that there was not a
distinguishable difference bet-
ween young and old.
·
·we had difficulty finding
somebody old or young to go to in
the clutch" said Petro.
When you're not playing and
the team is losing everybody
thinks they should be playing, he
said.
Likewise, the girls basketball
team who are 5-2 to date, are now
playing with one captain, Anita
Marano. Co-captain Wanda
Glenn resigned because she
wanted to devote more time to
school work. Also leaving were
Kathy Sheldon, Maureen Jen•
nings and Rhonda Chadwick
because of academic reasons.

"What
.
is important," said
coach Howard
"Doc"
Goldman,
"is that the students get behind
the team." He pointed especially
to last year's tournament at RPI,
where Goldman says the team
got a lot of support from fans who
bothered to take the trip up.
"It
was good," sa~d Goldman,
· ·a lot of students came up, made
a lot of noise, we played well, and
everyone had a good time."

Admission for the day long
tournament will be $1.00 to pay
for the referees, and the trophies.
The Red Foxes will also play in
the RPI tournai::nent on March 5,
and then they will hold a regional
tournament at the Mccann
