Mari st gets mixed survey ratings
By Alan Jackson
Only 41 percent of the students polled
feel that Marist has met their ex-
pectations as a college in an informal
survey taken by the CIRCLE. However,
in a separate question, 90 percent of those
students rated Marist as fair to good as a
college. The survey was answered by 209
students.
Students were also asked. to name the
main issues of controversy at Marist. Of
the 240 responses, the top five issues were
- Housing (22 percent), student apathy
(10 percent), food (7 percent), ad-
ministrative apathy (6· percent), and a
lack of communication between·students
and administrators (6 percent).
....
.
Two-thirds of the students rated
Marist's faculty as good to excellent.
Ninety-one percent rated their education
at Marist from fair to good.
The C.U.B.'s (College Union Board)
performance was rated good by 45
percent and excellent by 11 percent of
those polled.

New course numbers designed
for easier course selection
By
Joe Ford
A new numbering system for
academic courses, designed to
make course selection easier for
studentlf, will be used at Marist
College next semester, according
to Registrar John Dwyer.
Course listings for the fall
registration p•:riod, beginning
April 10, will feature new num-
bers which will put each course
on a specific_ level. "This system
works
_
in about 99 percent of the
colleges that use it" said Dwyer.
According to Dwyer, all
courses designated as level 100
are elementary. All 200-300 level
courses are considered in-
termediate, and 400 level courses
are advanced. Dwyer said the
new numbering system "gives
more meaning by specifically
defining advanced courses from
elementary ones so as not to
cause students to take the wrong
level courses."
Under
.
the old numbering
system, each course was given a
unique number, not necessarily
in sequence with other related
courses. "The problem is," said
Dwyer;
"
that students couldn't
tell what the level of a course
was."
Under the new system; a five
digit listing is assigned to each
course. The first two digits in-
dicate major or department. An
elementary course could be listed
as
00100.
Dwyer says he had been trying
to change the school's old course
numbering system since he
arrived at Marist in 1972.
The change is difficult, he said,
mostly because the school's
computer
system
was
programmed only for the old
numbering system. With a
cha1;ge in computer systems, the
switch was finally made
.
In an attempt to make
ad
~
justment to the new system
easier, all course advisors which
will be distributed this week with
course listings, will have both the
old and new numbers for each
course listed.

The American prison reform
system was
-
described
as
inadequate and unable to help
inmates by two clergymen
Tuesday night, but they said
there is hope
if
new methods are
adopted.
"What othe prison system is
doing is taking the middle of the
road and doing nothing,
"
com-
promising between being
·
ex-
tremely harsh or lenient," said
Fr
.
Daniel Egan.
Egan, founder of New Hope
Manor, a drug rehabilitation
center for women in Garrison,
N.Y.,
Br. Timothy McDonald,
and two women ex-convicts spoke
to approximately 80 students and
teachers in the Campus Center
about the inability of prisons to
reform criminals.
Continuously stressing that
approximately 70 percent
of
the
nation's ex-convicts return to
prison each year, Egan said
·~Why, why, do people come back
if
it is a deterent? Convicts have
no fear of returning to prison."
McDonald, a chaplain at the
correctional facility on Riker's
Island, said "This is what it's all
about..." as he emptied a bag of
home-made knives confiscated
from inmates at Hiker
'
s Island,
" ... protection

"
"No one is safe in the in-
stitution, not even the guards,"
said McDonald

who has been at

Egan claims rehabilitation
_ programs should take a more
personal
approach.
"The
probiem is dealing with the total
human
.
being, to spark a
motivation: What kind of person
do I want to become?"
Egan said perhaps convicts
should be re-evaluated after a
period of time. "Juries should
reconvene and decide
if
a person
is still dangerous to society. A
convict should not remain in
prison for 35 years
if
he changed
during the first two years of his
sentence," he said.
McDonald agrees with the re-
evaluation concept, but-said "It's
great, terrific, but there is sc

the
bureaucracy I don't think it could
work!

Campi/ii- highly devoted to Marist
Editors note: This story is the
second
in a series of ad-
ministrator evaluations.
By Maria Troiano and
Gerry McNulty
He often loses sleep over it because, next
to his family Anthony Campilii's job at
Marist is the most important thing in
his
life.
"I've got a personal stake in this in-
stitution," said the 36 year old business
manager who graduated from Marist in
1962 with a B.A. in accounting.
Financially, he
is
responsible for the
most efficient use of the student's dollar.
"The bottom line for me is always
finances, once I lose that perspective I'm
lost," Campilii said.
After graduation in May 1962 Campilii,
trained in accounting, began looking for
work, "Call it intuition, I figured they
would need someone to do what I'd been
trained to do."
On July 16, 1962, he began as assistant to
President Llnus Foy handling payroll and
paying the bills.
"Everything was done by hand,"
Campilii said, the 15 to 20 faculty members
were paid once a month.
photo • Paul Nunziata
representing the college's hard financial
policies, "it has been our tradition to live
very close to the frugal line."
·
Fixed obligations such as taxes, mor-
tgage, payroll and maintenance costs
must be met first said Campilii. He deals
directly with maintenance, security, the
bursar, business office, and the personnel
department. Campilii said the job
sometimes comes down to mundane things
but, "Somebody's got to make sure the
lights go on and the bills get paid."
Never knows what's going to happen
But it
is
the day to day crises which keep
Campilii in his job. "I love to get involved
with those things, that is
what
keeps me
going," he said. When I come in in the
morning I never know what's going to
happen, Campilii said.
Less than 60 percent of his time is spent
in scheduled appointments, the rest is
taken up with day to day problems.
Sometimes the pressures can take their
toll, Campilii said but added,
''If
the downs
ever got to be the majority I'd throw in the
towel."
Although his position is important to the
welfare of the college, unlike faculty he
has no "tenure." Campilii, like all level
one executives, "serves at the pleasure of
the president" and "l have to be aware of
that," he said.
"I'm satisfied"
"The job was interesting because I got to
know a great deal about a lot of things" he
said. "The more experienced I became
with things, the more the President shifted
into my area." At this time Marist's
operating budget was approximately
$750,000, less than one-ninth what it is
today.
Business Manager Anthony Campilii
President Linus Foy said
"If
he's kept
his job then I'm satisfied." Foy said he
sees Campilii as being completely devoted
to the college.
Grew
with
college
As the college expanded through the
sixties Campilii's responsibilities grew,
and by the time the business office moved
to Donnelly inthe early seventies he was a
level one administrator.
More responsibilities meant losing in-
teraction with students, "I resisted it at
first:· I like the pulse of student life~"
Campilii said, but added he realized he had
a responsibility to the, institution rather
than himself.
As business manager Campilii plays a
major role in the budgetary process. Louis
Zuccarello, academic dean, Antonio
Perez, dean of students, and Campilii meet
and draw up an operating budget for the
college each year .. Campilii said every
year the budget
is
analyzed so that
redistribution of funds coincides with
changing priorities. He said it's a matter
of practicality and "There are some
priorities, worthwhile as they are, you
have to say ·no."
Has more contact with president
Campilii emphasized the process is
consultative; however, when a deadlock
occurs among administrators, Foy makes
the final decision. But because of his
position "I have more contact with the
president when it comes to budget input
than the ·rest of them," he said.
Part of Campilii's job
is
to report the
budget's status to the president four times
a year. He must keep the president aware
of inconsistencies between projected and
actual spending. Campilii also insures the
college's programs meet government
regulations.
Campilii is obligated to advise on any
major
expenditure,
co_ntinually
Foy said the job entails more respon-
sibilities than it did when he held it
in
the
college's early years, "I don't know how he
does it I couldn't handle that job." Foy
added Campilii's responsibilities may
be
more than one man can handle and that
was "certainly under study."
The nature. of his job sometimes makes
him very unpopular, "there are different
ways to say no" he said.
"If
it comes to
pass and I save money I'm a hero, if it
doesn't come to pass and I lose money I'm
a bum," Campilii said. "I'm at the bottom
of everybody's list, that's a reality of life."

The death of Christianity
By Eugene Best
I pray daily for the deatil of Christianity! Now
wait - don't turn me off or tune me out. That's
what many people did when first I made this
statement.
It was on a
TV
show. The moderator
asked what I as a Catilolic tilought about all tile
chang~s affecting the Catholic Church. I replied
that I liked them and wished that there would be
more. That's when~ dropped
_
the above remark
which exploded like
a
bomb, judging from the
"hate mail" received by the station and by me.
Some people accused the station of bringing in a
Communist disguised as a Catholic. Others
ac:cused me of giving up tile faith. Not many had
listened as I tried
to
explain my statement. So let
me try now
to
explain it again.
G .K. Chesterton, an English catholic writer, in
a book called The Everlasting Man has a chapter
on "The Five Deaths
of
tile Faith."
·
Chesterton
there argues that on at least five occasions in the
past, Christianity seemed to be dying. In reality,
Christianity was only stripping itself
of
an an-
tiquated cultural dress. And on each of those
occasions, Christianity converted the new age,
not as an old religion but as
a
new one.
Chesterton wrote: "Christendom has had a
series of revolutions and in each one of them
Christianity has died. Christianity has died
.
many times and risen again; for it had a god who
knew the way out of the grave."
Christianity today, I believe,
is
going through
one of the crises like those seeming deaths that
Chesterton wrote about I collsider these issues
much more in detail in my course, "Christianity
in Crisis." But as far as I am concerned, tile
changes which Christianity
is
experiencing
today have little to do with the essentials of faith.
Therefore I :want Christianity to be stripped of its
culJpral
non-essentials
so
that
a
renewed Christianity may relate to the new
world which is a-building. In a sense, what I want
was suggested by
Jesus
when He said: "Unless a
wheat grain falls
.
on tile ground and dies,· it
remains only a single grain; but
if
it dies, it
yields a rich hai:vest." I long to see, and help
bring in, that rich harvest.
Some Christians find it hard to. live with
change in their religion. They have heard the
Church described too often as "unchanging."
And they have been encouraged to hold fast to
the "unchanged dogmas and traditions handed
down from the beginning." As a matter of fact,
neither the Chutch nor its dogmas and traditions
are "unchanging." They have changed greatly
in the remote and recent past, they are changing
now, and they will,change yet more in tile futur~.
The statement holds true for all in tilis world,
including the Church and its 'dogmas: "In a
higher world, it is otherwise; but here below,
to
live is to change, and to be perfect is
to
have
changed often."
·
Thatlast statement was written by John Henry
Newman in his Essay on the ·Development of
Christian Doctrine. Newman was the first
scholar to focus study on the processes and
results of change affecting Christianity. Before
Newman, Catholics thought in static tenns about
their unchanging Church. Since Newman,
thinking catholics see
•
their Church more and
more in dynamic terms. So important was
Newman's insight about change that he has often
been called "the Father of Vatican Council II."
He was quoted more often at the Council than
any other author.
Supposing, in
closing, I were to claim that the
Christian Church
is bound to no particular form
of
human culture, nor to any political, economic,
or social system. My claim would be quite dif-
ferent from Hilaire Belloc's statement that "the
Faitil is Europe and Europe is the Faith." Yet I
claim that the Church
is not bound to any race or
nation, nor to any particular way of life or any
customary pattern of living, ancient or recent.
My claim certainly implies the possibility of far
greater changes in Christianity than any ex-
periences since Vatican Council II ended ahnost
thirteen years ago. Does my claim sound
radical?
It
shouldn't, because the claim is not
really mine. My claims here are direct quotes
from one of the two major documents of Vatican
ll,
entitled "The Church in the Modern World." I
like the changes that have been made in the
Church, and I hope that soon there will be more.
Maybe now you better understand what I mean
when I pray dally for the death of Christianity.

constantly
assured by
a
knowing audience
that the Wizard would help her.
"Go to the Emerald City,
Dorothy," they shouted. Jeff
Simoniette, said that if he were
the Wizard, he would "make
everybody good."
Tara Perry edged a little closer
to a Circle reporter and said, "I
hope the monkies don't get me!"
Many liked the part when the
"mean, ugly witch" was melted
to her death. Though most of the
comments ran along the lines of
"Yeech", there were some witch
sympathizers in the audience.
A
blond named
Steve
sadly asked,
"Is the witch really dead?" He
appeared relieved that she only
died in the play.
Several of
the
younger
members of the audience were
escorted outside the theater for a
cry to relieve the trauma of the
crama.
One youngster commented that
she liked the live version better
than the one on television. Most
said they had seen the television
version.
The only negative comment
came from one teary eyed
youngster who said, "The
monkies are too big!"
However, one group of performet's which
scared the children were the ''winged
monkeys." The Wicked Witch tells one of
her monkeys to go out and bring back
Dorothy "and her little dog too.'.'
All
of a sudden the curtains open and
over ten monkeys leap into the audience.
The children as well as the rest of the
audience, were both scared and surprised.
The sets which were constructed were
unbelievably real. "Oz" is a mass of
quivering lights and puffs of smoke. The
balloon which is suppose to take Dorothy
back to Kansas is actually seen floating
away.
It
is obvious that a lot of effort went
into these constructions.
The only aspect which took away from
the play's overall effect was the lighting. If
the effect of the play had relyed on the
lighting it would have had no effect at all.
Jim Willis, Kevin Stack, and Vincent
Capozzi, who are in charge of lighting,
have a lot more work to do before
this
aspect of the play's production is made
even adequate. At times performers were
on stage and all the light!; were out. The
lighting is the only aspect of the play which
seems not ready for production.
The play which will be presented
through Sunday
is
open to the general
public. Tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. will be
"Marist Night." The play will · be
presented for Marist students only. All
students interested should make reser-
vations with the box office.

Mini-deli
profits "minimal"
By
Vic Small
Though the Champagnat and
Leo Hall mini-deli's earn over
$500
a week, Al Abramovich,
manager of dining services, has
termed the profits "minimal."
Abramovich said the deli's
were opened for the convenience
of
students and to provide jobs,
not to make a lot of money. The
Deli's earn an average of over
$100
a week profit. The deli's,
which opened six weeks ago, each
provide about
10
part-time jobs
for students.
Abramovich said students can
have snacks in their dorms
in-
stead of having to go to the
Rathskellar in the basement of
Champagnat, or off campus.

Fred Gainer, Champagnat

New constitution approved
By Gerard Biehmer
The new Student Government
(SG) constitution was approved
by a student vote Friday, March
IO.
Only
153
students voted,
110
for the new constitution,
32
against, with ten votes not
registering
in
the
voting
machines.
"It
truly seems a shame tMt
Marist students would not par-
ticipate in something designed
for their benefit," said Sue
Breen, Student Government
President. "They are always
crying that they want change but
don't bother to participate
in
something that will bring change
about."
The main proposal of the
constitution is a council of five
student presidents. Thi~ includes
presidents of the Student Activity
Committee, the College Union
Board, the Commuter Union, and
the Interhouse Council. The
council's responsibilities are
divided between· the members,
with the president of the student
body acting as representative of
the group.
Student Government elections
for these positions will be held
Monday and Tuesday. Can-
didates night will be tonight at
eight in the Fireside Lounge. As
of now there are only three
candidates for the five open
positions; Frank Biscardi for SG
president, Liz McRae for Student
Activity Committee, and Chris
Faille for Interhouse Council.
Mini-courses worthwhile
By Maggie Schubert
Despite differing opinions · on
mini-courses, some teachers
believe they are worthwhile and
successful learning experiences.
·•Mini's can be an occasion for a
unique kind of learning', where a
student is immersed in a topic for
two full weeks," says Petet
O'Keefe, director of continuing
education.
Mini--courses were introduced
to Marist in
1975
by Steve Panko,
O'Keefe's predecessor, to serve
different populations, such as
non-traditional students and
commuters, said O'Keefe. Mini-
courses have been conducted
during the sumrr.er and winter
recesses. The clas!!es meet for
12
days for a total of
37
hours. A
traditional
14
week course meets
for
42
hours.
Mini-courses have been offered
in a variety of subjects. from
··Principles of Economics"
to
the
"Existentialists " but "not all
courses lend themselves to the
mini-methods, science and math
courses might be difficult to
teach in a two week period," says
Louis Zucarello, academic dean.
A
mini-course has its place, but
students should be screened, says
Eleanor Conklin, director of the
learning center. In the expository

winter session she allowed only
students with a
3.0
average or
better to enroll.
"I had to depend
on them to assimilate and un-
derstand quickly. There was no
time for extra, individualized
help," she added.
One-hundred twenty students
registered for the last winter
session, O'Keefe said, and they
generally have been well-·
received by the students. The
past winter mini-session was the
first time the mini-courses were
evaluated by the instructors, but
students have never been asked
to evaluate the courses.
"l
had
wanted to get student reactions,
but
l
never got around to it,"
O'Keefe said. "We should go
further
and
get
student
evaluations as well," he added.
For a mini-course to be a
valuable learning experience,
there should be some previous
knowledge, says John Scileppi,
assistant
professor . of
psychology. "The content should
be limited to upper-level courses
and special topics, and to people
who can relate their background
material to the subject," he says.
Courses
structured
as
workshops or seminars would be
worthwhile mini's, said Richard
Platt,
English
and -com-
munication arts department
chairman. "Who's teaching and
how would determine how
valuable the course would be," he
said.
Faculty
and
department
chairman are supposed to
suggest possible courses, with
Zuccarrello making the final
decision, but· O'Keefe says, it
is
up to each teacher to decide what
will be taught and how.
"Mini's are a tough way to
learn,"
says John Kelly,
economics professor. The ad-
vantage is the intense con-
centration of one subject; the
disadvantage is how much must
be learned in a short time, he
said. Courses that depend on
repitition and outside work, such
-as accounting or advanced theory
courses, would be very difficult to
teach
in
two weeks, Kelly says.
I
Instructors are paid $1,000 for
ten students or more in a mini-
course, for classes with less than
ten, . they are paid $100 per
student according to O'Keefe.

Booters end season
By
Don Purdy
The hosting Marist White team
finished third in its last soccer
tournament of the indoor season
on March 12. The Whites dueled
Rhinebeck to· a 0-0 tie, squeezed
by Army 1-0, and fought a
standoff with Montclair State
0-0.
The Marist Red squad didn't fare
as well, bowing to Germania 1-0,
losing to Dutchess Community
College 2-1, and tying the
Poughkeepsie Kickers 0-0.
clair State 1-0. Germania cap-
tured the tournament by blanking
Dutchess 1-0 in the finals while
Marist beat Montclair in the
consolation game by the identical
score.
According to coach Howard
Goldman the shots just never
found their way into the net. "We
were giving up opportunities," he
noted. "We passed when we
should have shot and we shot
when we should have passed."

The Red Foxes indoor track
season was completed on March
18 at Union College, Schenectady
when Keith Millspaugh won the
600 yard event with a time of
115.1. Millspaugh who finished
the indoor season with a record of
five first place finishes in seven
events that he entered will
continue to run for the Spring
track and field season. Also
competing in the Union College

boat
takes medal
By Dave Shaw
This past weekend at tlie
Grimaldi Cup at Orchard Beach
Lagoon in New York,
it
was the
junior varsity heavyweight crew
that put together a winning
.
combination for the Marist Red
Foxes. The varsity heavyweight
stroked
in for third place out of
seven teams in the Saturday
afternoon
race.
Against
Columbia on Sunday, both var-
sity and junior varsity squads
were unable to

school.

At the Grimaldi
•·
Cup, the
Marist junior varsity found
themselves behind Kings Point
by three-quarters of a boat length
during the first
1000
meters, but
made a strong finish to win the
gold medal of the competition.
With a time of 8:15.0, the Foxes
were too sly for their com-
petitors, as Kings

Columbia the jayvees started out
strong and got ahead by a length,
but were unable to hold the lead
and fell to Columbia. Coach Gary
.
Caldwell felt that the team "may
have been a little overconfident"
with their recent victory on
Saturday.
Due to the windy conditions of
this weekend, both meets were
delayed and
.
slowed down
the
pace of all of the squads. These
poor conditions seemed to hinder
the Marist varsity team a little
more than the junior varsity. The
Red Fox rowers finished in third
place out of seven in Uie varsity
heavyweight competition. Once
again, Marist found the main
trouble versus Kings Point, who
·
finished 12.5 seconds ahead of the
Foxes, and received the gold
medal. Georgetown finished
second, New York Maritime
fourth, Manhattan fifth, and St.
Johns and Fordham trailed the
field. Coach Caldwell said "the
lack of water time made us less
agressive." The varsity crew
included stroker Pat Brown

Jim
Palitucci, Frank Hildenbrand,
Butch Joseph, Joe Ford, Rich
Neal, Bob Missert, and Jack
Boyle in the bow, while the
coxman was Sue Dubatowka. In
the Sunday competition against

the beginning, made
