Resident students will now be billed for
damages after repairs · h~ve been com-
pleted, except seniors, who will be billed
prior to graduation, according t<.> policy
changes of the $50 residence hall security
deposit.
Under the previous billing procedure,
damages were assessed .and billed to
students before repairs were made and in
many. instances, the repairs were not
completed.
·
According to the Circle article of Oct. 5,
$1,445 of repairs paid for by . resident
students in Champagnat, Leo, and
Sheahan halls last semester were not
repaired.
The· new. procedure now in effect was
presented. by Assistant Dean of Students
Gerry Kelly at the Oct. 19 meeting of Inter-
. House Council, according to IHC President
Chris Faille ..
Revision proposals for billing students
for reside~ce hall damages were sub-
mitted to IHC by the Council of Student
Leaders on Sept. 21, according to Faille.
The only proposal made by IHC not
adopted for the billing procedure called for
students to be given refunds for repairs not
completed, said Faille.
However Faille said the proposal was
rejected because of the great deal of ac-
counting which would be involved in giving
students refunds · and then · billing them
again when repairs were completed.
"I am satisfied in the sense that the new
procedure is the most feasible solution "
said Faille.
/
Both Faille and Residence Coordinator
Fred Gainer believe the new procedure
will have positive effects on the main-
tenance department's performance in
completing repairs more promptly.

tenance

Dracula-not a vampire but as "fiendish" as his reputation
Dr. Rado Florescu
by Chris
Egan
Although not a vampire, the infamous
Count Dracula "no doubt existed" and
was as "fiendish as his fictional
reputation," according to Dr. Radu
Florescu, a Boston College professor
who spoke at Marist last Thursday.
Florescu, professor of European and
Balkan history at Boston College, said
Dracula has "a Jekyll and Hyde image,
with an evil aspect and a
.
heroic
aspect." The side most people are
"No man in history

According to Florescu "Vlade was a
"vampire concept which

drawn up from Rumanian peasant
evidenced by his nickname "the Im-
superstitions." After researching the

hero, much like Americans would be
offended if people said George
Washington was a vampire. There
is no
evidence that the original Count
Dracula was a vampire." Rumania still
refuses to publish Stoker's novel which
has been translated into many
languages according to Florescu.
Dr. Florescu, who was born in
Bucharest, said he developed his in-
terest because he
is a descendant of a
family that witnessed Dracula's
horrors. His mother comes from
Transylvania, a town in western
Rumania. He said he wanted "to show
the side of Dracula the man, as opposed
to Stoker's version of Dracula the
vampire. To make Dracula a respec-

Beside his teaching job, Florescu also

Nice Work
In

beginning of this semester, retur-
ning students found many dormitory
damages from last semester unrepaired, even
though they had already paid for the repairs
in advance. Fred Janus. maintenance super-
visor. explained the repairs had not been
made because of a lack of time and campus
vandalism, which hindered maintenance.
Physical Plant Director Andrew Pavelko
said the delay in repairs was due to un-
derstaffing in the maintenance department.
However. thanks to the work of Inter-
House Council and Assistant Dean of
Students Gerry Kelly, the procedure which
used to bill students for dormitory repairs has
been changed for the better. Students will no
longer have to pay for repairs before they
have been completed. In the future, under
the new system, repairs will be completed
before students are hilled for them. not after,
This new legislation should be viewed as a
positive step on the part of IHC and Kelly in
not only improving communication between
students and administrators, hut the seeking
of fair policies which all can live by.
-ditorials
. However, the new policy is only an initial
move in making the dormitories a better
place to live. The student body must take on
greater responsibilities to insure the new
policy will not have to be implemented.
Many of the previous dormitory damages
were a direct -result of student vandalism.
Vandalism is a crime, and cannot be
tolerated. Students as well as administrators
must cooperate in creating a better at-
.
mosphere for dormitory life.

Get
it
in gear
After meeting· for inore than two hours
Tuesday. the newly - formed alcohol policy
committee decided
it
has an "important
task·· on its hands.
No kidding.
The dutv is to form a statement of the
policy and· to determine the differences bet-
ween the wav the it has been defined and the
interpretatio~s of that definition.
What that means is that nobody is really
sure just wl1at the policy is and who can
drink when he wants to and where.
If
we're going to know, we'd like it to be
soon.
The committee says it must ·review all the
aspects carefully. But in its attempt to form a
policy which will encourage a "positive,
mature use of alcohol," the group is spending
too much time.
Don't defeat your purpose. The semester is
more than half over, so get it in gear. ·

Osmosis
There is little doubt that children -assimilate
he life style of their parents.- Even during
adolescence when there seems to be wholesale
rejection of the values instilled in family life,
there is a gradual return to· what_ the teenager
learned in those very early years. Many more
things are taught by a form of 'osmosis' during
childhood than are rejected during the trying
,years of growing to independence. Just as the
two year old must learn to say 'no' before he is
able to utter 'yes,' the young adult must
frequently - at least outwardly - reject the
structure before valuing it. The false• bravado
that is projected in the company of peers is
accompanied by a sense . of Wiel:lsiness because
of the conviction that the values of family and
tradition are deeply ingrained, and cannot be
shoved aside except with false and brave
statements about the 'older' generation, the
'achninistration', the ' ..... ' which are simply not
tuned into the changing mores of society.
· The pain that is occasioned in the 'older'
generation, the administration, the ' ... ' is often
quite deep, as they, themselves, must reflect on
their own values ... and their bases. Experiencing
opposition to ones values is often as difficult and
unsettling for those with the responsibility of
manifesting values as for those who are striving
. to determine their values. The power of example
or modeling is engendered by conviction and is
· maintained by consistancy in one's values. Some.
will fail...finding themselves incapa_ble of
rilaWaining their values. Others will find their
values.far stronger because they rest on an mner
conviction
rather than
admiration
of
other ... older, younger or of the same age.
Perhaps, we have yet to see that there is a dif-
ference between mandating a way of life and
standing for. a way of living because of one's
convictions.
Maturity brings the insight and conviction that
allows the individual to espouse causes that are
unpopular even in the midst of peers. This is the
way of life of a value-based person. Age,
however, does not necessarily bring with it
maturity or the ability to consistently maintain a
set of values. Yet, while, to be without values of
one's own is to be as 'the wandering Aramean';
to be with values that one does not manifest is to
be a fraude. The young will, then, have no
models ... no direction and the old will have
no
consistency of life ... no life giving spirit.

For freshmen suddenly meeting up with a
great variety of life styles based on a vari.ety of
values, for faculty and staff being ask to speak of

Alcohol Committee?
An
Open letter to the Social-
Alcohol Policy Committee,
Dear Gentlepersons,
I would like to register sym-
pathetic disapproval of your self -
imposed silence. One can un--
derstand your desire to avoid
further confusion and miscon-
ceptions as to what, if anything,
consistutes the Alcohol Policy
(although I do not believe silence
is the appropriate prophylactic
for misconception.) One can, that
is, understand this motive
without approving the action that
it inspired.
Membership on the committee
that you collectively constitute is
representative. The concept of
representation without com-

damaged. The painting in
question was a gift to the collE!ge
from a local artist, Sheila
Tankard. The sentiments ex-
pressed in writing on the painting
referred, in less than polite
language, to members of the
administration of this college.

work of art is senseless.
It is important for an in_stitution.

municate to students a respect

cannot be allowed to go unnoticed
Support Reynard
To the Marist Community:
This year the Marist college
yearbook has committed itself to
getting the whole of the Marist
community into this years book. I
am confident that it will be
among the .finest yearbooks ever
produced at Marist College.
The Marist College Advertising
Club, working
in
conjunction with
the yearbook staff, has been ·
diligently selling to the people of
the Marist community; including
faculty, administrators, com-
muters, and residents. Initially
the
selling
campaign
skyrocketed, in one weeks time
over two-hundred books were
sold. However we have come to a
munication is an absurd con-
tradiction. Representation, by its
nature, involves interaction,
discussion, the dissemination of
·information -in short, openness. I
am more confused by the
possibility
of
a _ closed
representative body than I
believe I could possibly be by
dreaded leaks.
I address you with the utmost
respect when I ask that you
reconsider your silence.
An
open
consideration of the issues in-
volved at least has a chance to be
educative, but secrecy has no
such chance. I shall close with a
question; does lack of reliable
information prevent rumor, or
inspire it?

Respectfully Yours,
Christopher C. Faille
Interhouse Council President
or I would be derelict in my
responsibility as an educator.
If the vandalism was directed
against the painting then I
suggest that the student involved
ought to speak with me in order to
become · enlightened as to the
value or worth of the object from
both an educational and financial
point of view.
If,
however, the
painting was used to attack the
administration, as the message
would indicate, then I further
suggest that the student have the
courage to confront the . in-
dividual administrator con-
cerned. ·Positive results will
accrue from this type of action

of property.

our minimum goal of selling five-
hundred books.
We are working hard but we
need your support if there is to be
a yearbook this year, and in the
years to come. Although you may
not be interested in a yearbook at
the present time, at the end of the
academic year it will be too late
to purchase one (Seniors,
especially, should take this ·into
consideration).
I urge you to purchase
a
yearbook,

you have not done so
already. The future of The

Minicourses study
Woody,
Whitman
by
Beth Weaver
Woody Allen, Mark Twain and Walt
Whitman will be coming to Mari.st
this
spring, in the
fonn
of one credit
literature courses, according to Milton
Teichman, professor of English, in an
attempt to "move into areas which are
interesting and significant."
Students can select one, two or all
three of the courses, which are entitled
"Two American Humorists:· Mark
Twain and Woody Allen", "Walt
Whitman: American Giant", and "The
Immigrant Experience in America",
according to Teichman. The courses
will not duplicate three credit literature
courses, and will
be
offered con-
secutively in the same time slot, said
Teichman;·
The courses are designed for the non-
English major, he said, since they
carry no upper level English credit.
A
literary background is not necessary,
and there are no pre-requisites. The
courses are designed to offer students
something not presently available, said
Teichman, who added the introduction
of one credit courses allows a larger
range of subject matter.
Not every subject should be a three ·
11,,.,
credit course, according to Teichman.
Some courses can be taught
in
five or 10
weeks. "We're accustomed to thinking
courses
should
run
for
15
weeks ... carefully limited, some courses
could be handled
in
five or 10 weeks, but
that doesn't mean the subject couldn't
be
treated over a longer period of
time," he said.
Literary discoveries
Teichman said he would like to see
non-English majors taking literature
courses in greater numbers because
they can discover literature can
"illuminate their· experiences of the
world" and can be a new source of
pleasure. In attracting the non-English
major, the department realizes it must
explore new approaches, and Teichman
said the one credit courses are an
example of the new approach.
There· has been an interest in
literature among students, Teichman
noted, and the department wants to
increase that interest. These specific
courses were chosen with the idea of
bringing attractive literary matter to
the students, he said.
American Humor
The .courses center around the theme
of America. Twain and Allen
are
"distinctively American in their
humor", and Whitman was preoc-
cupied with America, according to
Teichman.
Students know little about American
humor, said Teichman, who added,
"the humor we're exposed to now is
from movies and television. We aren't
exposed to the treasure of humor in the
written form". Students are also not
aware of what a valuable tool humor
can
be
for insight into criticism, he
added.
American Giant
Whitman is regarded as the "greatest
of American poets, and students who
graduate from liberal arts should have
some exposure to this giant", said
Teichman. In the course, students will
learn of Whitman's works, as well as
his life, and discover his relevance to
our lives today.
American Immigrants
On the immigrant experience in
America, Teichman said many
students have family members who
came here as immigrants. Through this
course, students have the chance to
study a number of works which deal
with the experiences of grand or great -
grandparents. Students studying these
experiences through literature can
"draw upon resources from their own
families", said Teichman.
Offering one credit courses is an
experiment in the English department,
said Teichman, and he said non-English
majors might be more willing to take
one credit courses in literature. He said
the department wants to be able to
reach more students, and believes
there is a desire for this type of course.
The courses are not being aimed at
freshmen, said Teichman, who hopes to
reach students on all levels. The
courses might also prove to be at-
tractive to the outside community who
might pursue them as part of the
continuing education program, said
Teichman.
Literature can "enlarge one's
awareness of the complexities of man
and human life, at the same time giving
us the satisfaction and pleasures of
art", according to Teichman. He said
he is eager to have students exposed to
courses of a humanistic nature, ex-
posed to the arts, even if their field is
more practical."

Award-winning poet explains his method
By
Valeria Poleri
Michael Margolin, a poet since he
was in
his late teens, used to believe
that to be a true poet, you had to starve
and then sit down and write your
poetry. Margolin, 36, is a new part-time
English teacher at
.
Marist.
.
Margolin said, "Every poet has an
ideal of what
his poems should be. You
try to get as close to that ideal as
possible."
Margolin was the featured poet last
Tuesday
in the second of this season's
Poets and Painters Lecture Series.
"If
you are serious about writing it
becomes a profession
·
in itself. You
force yourself and persuade yourself to
sit down and write every night;'' said
Margolin,

of language and what

life. Everything is thrown into it."
Because of his work on
his long poem he
stopped writing short ones for a while,
but he is now writing short poems as
well as the long one, so he will have
work to be considered by publishers.
Margolin received a Bachelor's
degree in English from Alfred
University and a Master of Fine Arts
degree from the University of Iowa. He
said there are positive arid negative
sides to teaching and writing at the
same time. Margolin said, "There is a
publis~ed
in
various
literary
magazines. Margolin said, "To be
published in itself is not important to
me.
It is more important from
a
practical standpoint, because it is a
means to something else, like a grant or
a
fellowship."
