Quinn

residence staff
for the position.
It has been
vacant since last year when all
R.C. positions on campus were
discontinued due to what Dr.
Antonio Perez, dean of students,
called "financial constraints."
The job was reopened this year
after studen!s had complained of
disorganization and confusion in
the dorm.

However, Daly said the college,

four consecutive years, will
suffer a temporary decline in
enrollment.
The number of graduates from
'
Long Island high schools which
has comprised a majority of the
M~_rist resident population will
seriously decline,
.
said Daly.
_
Long Island is a good student
market; according to the ad-

area with only 13 colleges.

Marisf should not expect a
severe drop of students from New

Daly also said a

Nominees for Who's Who selected

Marist
College
seniors have been nominated to
"Who's Who in American
Univer&ties and Colleges" by a
committee of Marist faculty,
staff,
administrators · and
students.
A committee of eight selected
this year's nominees.
Fred Lambert, assistant dean
of students; said ballots were sent
to seniors and faculty. He said the
seniors' had a "very healthy
response" but the faculty was
negligable.
The chairperson of the com-
mittee was Lambert. He said
members of the committee were
Peter Baudouin, president of
CUB, Kevin Wolff, senior class
president; Dr. William Olsen,
.
chairman of history and political
science, and Dolly Bodick,
coordinator of college activities.
Lambert also said several
members of the committee did
not attend the meeting. These
included Jeff Blanchard, Student
Government president; Dr. John
Kelly, chairman of the Business
pepartment; and Ron Petro,
athletic director.
Lambert said the committee
first considered those seniors
with a cumulative index of 3.0 or
better. Seniors must also have
made contributions to the school
community in the opinion of the
selectors. Students with a 2.5 to
3.0
index having made "out-
standing contributions" to the
school community were also
considered later, according to
Lambert.
He added that any senior with
below a 2.5 index was not con-
sidered.
Lambert said "it is certainly an
honor" for a senior to be selected
to the organiultion. He said the 18
seniors from Marist
will
be
on a
mailing list for job opportunities.
He said the students
will
be
members of a placement service
which the organization runs.
Lambert said Marist was
eligible to select
30
students this
year. He said only 18 were
selected because the committee
believed it should not select those
who were not qualified.
The
18
Marist students
.
nominated were Jim Honan, Joan
stegenga, Robin Barland, Jack
Boyle, Serifino Celano, Darelle
Dragivich, John Davern, Noreen
Fennell, Susan Gregory, Richard
Hasbrouck, Robert Kozakiewicz,
John McCarthy, Vincent Nugent,

scheduled
There will be a leadership
seminar on January 20 to
January 22 at the Esopus, an
estate across the river, owned by
the Marist Brothers
.
John Campbell, a student in-
tern who helped organize the
weekend, said the purpose of the
seminar is to give students the
opportunity for "blending the
social with the educational
purpose."
Dolly Bodick, coordinator of
college activities, said the
theoretical aspects of leadership
are not always understood by
students in such positions and the
seminar should help students to
understand the
',
theoi;etical
aspect.
.
Anybody interested should
contact the CUB office before
December 13. According to
Campbell, 15 people will be ac-
cepted. He added if there
is
a
large interest in the seminar
future ones will
be
held.

the Board of Trustees, he said.
A sociology degree with a
concentration in social work
is
being considered for Marist,
according to Academic Dean
Louis Zuccarello. "As soon as we
receive approval from the State
Education Department, the
program will be implemented,"
said Zuccarello.
The proposal, the result of a
year long study by Dr. Florence
Michels, is being reviewed by the
AAC, according to Zuccarello.·He
said the SAC has already shown
strong support for the plan .
According to the proposal, the
program would be staffed by
three full-time faculty members
in 1978-79, the first year of the
program and the full-time staff
would increase to five by 1981.
Before the proposal is sub-
mitted to the state, it must
be
approved by the Academic
Af-
fairs Committee (AAC), Student
Academic Committee
(SAC),
the
faculty, Pr,esident Linus Foy and

A parting shot
..
.
This is the final edition of the Circle for
this semester. A lot of things have happened
on campus, good and bad. Here are some
things we'd like to see happen.
The artwork on campus moved to a gallery
on the floor of the Hudson River.
Assistant Dean of Students Fred Lambert,
the unofficial "Dean of Dinner" eat three
meals
a
day in the cafeteria for at least a
week.
The Waterworks Road rebuilt by the turn
of the
century.
The men's basketball team -win
2D
games,
as predicted by head coach Ron Petro.
The women's basketball team defeat West
Point en route to
at.least
a 15 win season.

done in three years).

somebody
lifts you out of your doldrums. With the Cir-
cle, it was many people, more than
can
be
mentioned here. However, one person stands
out above
all
the re;:t - Larry Striegel.

Larry is that curly-haired fellow who
would work 24 hours a day (he has many
times) to put out the best possible Circle. The
semester is drawing to a close and so is

Christmas thoughts
Many of you will go home over vacation,
plop down in front of the tube and watch the
football playoffs, see Oklahoma whip Arkan-
sas, and be bored enough to see every bowl
game on television.
You'll lounge around the house, munch-
out on dried-out turkey, drink spiked eggnog,
and sleep 'til noon. There's nothing wrong
with that, right?
But, don't forget what the holidays reall;•
mean. It's more than just shopping at
bargain prices, gettingjuiced on New Year's
Eve, and counting the days until Christmas.
There is a speci?l air about the-wintertime
holidays.

Brown's skimpy tree flourishes. Listen to

Go out and greet old friends and buy them

tag but for the value
printed on your heart.

Why
Breen?
To the Editors:
.
Whether you realize it or not a
very important asset to Marist
College may be lost. He
is a
faculty member who was refused
tenure by the 'review board' and
then taken to the Board of
Trustees by President Linus Foy
in hopes of overriding the
decision.
His
name
is Dr. John
Gerard Breen.
Gerry,
as
most people know
him,
is not your "conventional"
professor. Yet, one of the best
professors we've ever had at
Marist College. Gerry made us
think
about ourselves and our
values, helping
us
grow as a
person.
_
_
He's the professor who's
classes you can never get into:
they're closed out too quickly.
He's always available for us to
_ see for he's literally on
campus
24
hours a day Monday thru Friday.
Gerry teaches at Green Haven
Prison and has taught there for a
number of years. He's worked on
hiring a director for the program. ,
.
He takes the time to deal with the
ex-offenders on campus, helping
them adjust within a classroom
and outside.
We've often seen Gerry taking
students to movies and plays and
then relate them to his classes.
He's the guy you always see
Donnelly rats
To the Editors:
I am writing in regard to the
health regulations that exist in
New York State. Does Marist
abide by these regulations?
It has come to my knowledge
that

our
academic facility, Donnelly
·Hall.
These rodents have been seen by
at least three persons, each more
than once. The fact was
registered with Andrew Pavelko,
director of maintenance, on the
very first occasion.
Mr. Pavelko seems to have
ignored this information, and we
therefore know· where his
priorities lie. Something should
be done about this immediately.
.
If
rats are in Donnelly, are they
in the £afeteria? Are they in our
food? Should we notify Pavelko's
superiors or sholild' we notify the
Board of Health?

It's the Harlem Globetrotters
Caring about
~ther things
When more than half.of every year for 15
years has been devoted to making people
laugh through the sport
of
basketball, you
get to caring about other things.
Curly Neal was looking for a television
set to watch the Dolphins and Colts football
game Monday night between halves of the
Globetrotters performance at the McCann
Center.
Neal, who says he's
16
years-old but
.
later admits to being 35, gets home to
Greensboro, N.C. only twice a year to see
·
his wife Rose and his five daughters. He
says he reads, paints, writes and watches
television while the Trotters are on the
road between October 10 and April 10 and
in training for most of the summer.
·
Neal has been one
of
the most durable
and popular of the Globetrotters. He says
he was very serious about basketball when
he joined the organization at the age of
20,
but has developed his own style. Called the
Kojak of basketball, Neal entertains with
agile dribbling
and
silly
antics with
teammates and opponents. He always
smiles cheek-to-clleek except when the
·
play gets serious.
.
But Neal breaks up lulls in the per-
formance by goofing with the referee or
the audience. During his Marist per-
formance he ran up
·
into the stands and
kissed Academic Dean Louis Zuccarello's
bald spot and ran a~y laughing. Zuc-
carello also laughed
·
just as hard.
When asked about his favorite place to
play he says without hesitation, "Home,"
but mentioned that he likes to visit New
York and Los Angeles
.
He says some
"audiences are warm and some are cold."
The Globetrotters have played in front of
audiences as large as
75,000
(in Moscow)
and
as
small as a single spectator; That
audience was with the late Pop John
XXIII
in the
.
early sixties. Neal says the Pontiff
"laughed a lot and jwnped out of his seat."
For the record, the game was a laugher;

Red Klotz is a man who takes
his
business very seriously. He
is
the owner and coach of the New
Jersey Reds, who supply the
opposition for the world famous
Harlem Globetrotters. Although
the Globetrotters have won 98
percent of the games, every
contest counts for Klotz.
"This
situation
is
unique," said
Klotz.
"It
is a combination of
showmanship
and
com-
petitiveness." He explained that
the Globetrotters also feel much
the same, and
if
they are not
playing well there will be little or
no show.
As for his own nine players
Klotz says, "They all have talent
and never quit. I check very
closely into each player's
-background when they are
recruited, it
is
a must. Without a
good attitude there is no way they
will last." This was very
exemplified when he threw out
one of

J. Reds because
he didn't liJce the player's attitude
on the court.
He also got upset when the
officials missed some obvious
calls. "I feel that the show is not
totally
dependent
on
the
refereeing, and therefore it
should be like any other game,"
he said.
This attitude of frustration
towards officials was probably
fostered when he played for the
Washington Bullets in the late
40's.
Klotz said he

said Stevens. Other key events
will be the New York State Track

of qualifying for the natio~al
championships. The three m-

Lappin and sophomore Jerry
Scholder. Morris, from Our Lady

As
in previous years, the
distance runners are expected to
contribute to the team's success.
Unfortunately, the squad should
be hampered in the weight events
(the hammer throw and the shot
put) because of a poor turnout.
Stevens estimated that fresh-
men make up half the team. If
these freshmen perform as well
as they did in cross country,
Stevens has the right to think the
1977-78 indoor season will
be
special.

for the position.
It has been
vacant since last year when all

enrollment.
The number of graduates from
'
Long Island high schools which
has comprised a majority of the

seriously decline,
.
said Daly.
_
Long Island is a good student
market; according to the ad-

Marisf should not expect a

Daly also said a

THE CIRCLE
December 8, 1977
Nominees for Who's Who selected
;
By
Pat
Larkin
Eighteen
Marist
College
seniors have been nominated to
"Who's Who in American
Univer&ties and Colleges" by a
committee of Marist faculty,
staff,
administrators · and
students.
A committee of eight selected
this year's nominees.
Fred Lambert, assistant dean
of students; said ballots were sent
to seniors and faculty. He said the
seniors' had a "very healthy
response" but the faculty was
negligable.
The chairperson of the com-
mittee was Lambert. He said
members of the committee were
Peter Baudouin, president of
CUB, Kevin Wolff, senior class
president; Dr. William Olsen,
.
chairman of history and political
science, and Dolly Bodick,
coordinator of college activities.
Lambert also said several
members of the committee did
not attend the meeting. These
included Jeff Blanchard, Student
Government president; Dr. John
Kelly, chairman of the Business
pepartment; and Ron Petro,
athletic director.
Lambert said the committee
first considered those seniors
with a cumulative index of 3.0 or
better. Seniors must also have
made contributions to the school
community in the opinion of the
selectors. Students with a 2.5 to
3.0
index having made "out-
standing contributions" to the
school community were also
considered later, according to
Lambert.
He added that any senior with
below a 2.5 index was not con-
sidered.
Lambert said "it is certainly an
honor" for a senior to be selected
to the organiultion. He said the 18
seniors from Marist
will
be
on a
mailing list for job opportunities.
He said the students
will
be
members of a placement service
which the organization runs.
Lambert said Marist was
eligible to select
30
students this
year. He said only 18 were
selected because the committee
believed it should not select those
who were not qualified.
The
18
Marist students
.
nominated were Jim Honan, Joan
stegenga, Robin Barland, Jack
Boyle, Serifino Celano, Darelle
Dragivich, John Davern, Noreen
Fennell, Susan Gregory, Richard

John McCarthy, Vincent Nugent,

There will be a leadership
seminar on January 20 to
January 22 at the Esopus, an
estate across the river, owned by
the Marist Brothers
.
John Campbell, a student in-
tern who helped organize the
weekend, said the purpose of the
seminar is to give students the
opportunity for "blending the
social with the educational
purpose."
Dolly Bodick, coordinator of
college activities, said the
theoretical aspects of leadership
are not always understood by
students in such positions and the
seminar should help students to
understand the
',
theoi;etical
aspect.
.
Anybody interested should
contact the CUB office before
December 13. According to
Campbell, 15 people will be ac-
cepted. He added if there
is
a
large interest in the seminar
future ones will
be
held.

the Board of Trustees, he said.
A sociology degree with a
concentration in social work
is
being considered for Marist,
according to Academic Dean
Louis Zuccarello. "As soon as we
receive approval from the State
Education Department, the
program will be implemented,"
said Zuccarello.
The proposal, the result of a
year long study by Dr. Florence
Michels, is being reviewed by the
AAC, according to Zuccarello.·He
said the SAC has already shown
strong support for the plan .
According to the proposal, the
program would be staffed by
three full-time faculty members
in 1978-79, the first year of the
program and the full-time staff
would increase to five by 1981.
Before the proposal is sub-
mitted to the state, it must
be
approved by the Academic
Af-
fairs Committee (AAC), Student
Academic Committee
(SAC),
the
faculty, Pr,esident Linus Foy and
Zuccare\lo a\so said he ex-
pected the

to have a decision

A parting shot
..
.
This is the final edition of the Circle for
this semester. A lot of things have happened
on campus, good and bad. Here are some
things we'd like to see happen.
The artwork on campus moved to a gallery
on the floor of the Hudson River.
Assistant Dean of Students Fred Lambert,
the unofficial "Dean of Dinner" eat three
meals
a
day in the cafeteria for at least a
week.
The Waterworks Road rebuilt by the turn
of the
century.
The men's basketball team -win
2D
games,
as predicted by head coach Ron Petro.
The women's basketball team defeat West
Point en route to
at.least
a 15 win season.
A Student Government president serve

done in three years).

out above
all
the re;:t - Larry Striegel.

Christmas thoughts
Many of you will go home over vacation,
plop down in front of the tube and watch the
football playoffs, see Oklahoma whip Arkan-
sas, and be bored enough to see every bowl
game on television.
You'll lounge around the house, munch-
out on dried-out turkey, drink spiked eggnog,
and sleep 'til noon. There's nothing wrong
with that, right?
But, don't forget what the holidays reall;•
mean. It's more than just shopping at
bargain prices, gettingjuiced on New Year's
Eve, and counting the days until Christmas.
There is a speci?l air about the-wintertime
holidays.

Why
Breen?
To the Editors:
.
Whether you realize it or not a
very important asset to Marist
College may be lost. He
is a
faculty member who was refused
tenure by the 'review board' and
then taken to the Board of
Trustees by President Linus Foy
in hopes of overriding the
decision.
His
name
is Dr. John
Gerard Breen.
Gerry,
as
most people know
him,
is not your "conventional"
professor. Yet, one of the best
professors we've ever had at
Marist College. Gerry made us
think
about ourselves and our
values, helping
us
grow as a
person.
_
_
He's the professor who's
classes you can never get into:
they're closed out too quickly.
He's always available for us to
_ see for he's literally on
campus
24
hours a day Monday thru Friday.
Gerry teaches at Green Haven
Prison and has taught there for a
number of years. He's worked on
hiring a director for the program. ,
.
He takes the time to deal with the
ex-offenders on campus, helping
them adjust within a classroom
and outside.
We've often seen Gerry taking
students to movies and plays and
then relate them to his classes.
He's the guy you always see
Donnelly rats

I am writing in regard to the
health regulations that exist in
New York State. Does Marist
abide by these regulations?
It has come to my knowledge
that
RATS
frequent
our
academic facility, Donnelly
·Hall.
These rodents have been seen by
at least three persons, each more
than once. The fact was
registered with Andrew Pavelko,
director of maintenance, on the
very first occasion.
Mr. Pavelko seems to have
ignored this information, and we
therefore know· where his
priorities lie. Something should
be done about this immediately.
.
If
rats are in Donnelly, are they
in the £afeteria? Are they in our
food? Should we notify Pavelko's
superiors or sholild' we notify the
Board of Health?
Sincerely,
William M. Deeken

at

events and the New York Times.
If
not granted tenure,
·
he'll be
gone.
It will be a sad thing Ior
Marist, for Gerry adds to our
environment. He has helped us
and many students we know
through class discussions and
papers grow into people we never
thought of being. And we thank
Gerry for this.

Marist prides itself on being a
"living

perience." That in itself sums a

Food stuff
To the Editors:
It has come to the attention of
the Food Committee that many
people feel that we are not doirig
our-job. This became apparent in
the recent "Interhouse Council"
minutes.
We would like
.
to take
.
the op-
portunity now, to give you a
nutshell report on what we have
been doing.
Several minor changes have
been instituted in the cafeteria
such as havingallthe sauces and
·
gravies on the side,
·
rather than
directly on the meats ( e.g. ham
and pork chops).
Oil and vinegar
has also been added to the salad
bar.
·
The wearing of a hair net or
having the hair pulled back
is
now a requirement of all kitchen
workers.
Yogurt will be served every
Friday, and Chef Salad platters
every Wednesday for lunch.
A plan for vegetarian meals for
those of you who are true
vegetarians is in its final stages .
A reduction
in
Italian meals
has also begun.

It's the Harlem Globetrotters
Caring about
~ther things
When more than half.of every year for 15
years has been devoted to making people
laugh through the sport
of
basketball, you
get to caring about other things.
Curly Neal was looking for a television
set to watch the Dolphins and Colts football
game Monday night between halves of the
Globetrotters performance at the McCann
Center.
Neal, who says he's
16
years-old but
.
later admits to being 35, gets home to
Greensboro, N.C. only twice a year to see
·
his wife Rose and his five daughters. He
says he reads, paints, writes and watches
television while the Trotters are on the
road between October 10 and April 10 and
in training for most of the summer.
·
Neal has been one
of
the most durable
and popular of the Globetrotters. He says
he was very serious about basketball when
he joined the organization at the age of
20,
but has developed his own style. Called the
Kojak of basketball, Neal entertains with
agile dribbling
and
silly
antics with
teammates and opponents. He always
smiles cheek-to-clleek except when the
·
play gets serious.
.
But Neal breaks up lulls in the per-
formance by goofing with the referee or
the audience. During his Marist per-
formance he ran up
·
into the stands and
kissed Academic Dean Louis Zuccarello's
bald spot and ran a~y laughing. Zuc-
carello also laughed
·
just as hard.
When asked about his favorite place to
play he says without hesitation, "Home,"
but mentioned that he likes to visit New
York and Los Angeles
.
He says some
"audiences are warm and some are cold."
The Globetrotters have played in front of
audiences as large as
75,000
(in Moscow)
and
as
small as a single spectator; That
audience was with the late Pop John
XXIII
in the
.
early sixties. Neal says the Pontiff
"laughed a lot and jwnped out of his seat."
For the record, the game was a laugher;

-Takin·g his business seriously
'
By
John Mayer
Red Klotz is a man who takes
his
business very seriously. He
is
the owner and coach of the New
Jersey Reds, who supply the
opposition for the world famous
Harlem Globetrotters. Although
the Globetrotters have won 98
percent of the games, every
contest counts for Klotz.
"This
situation
is
unique," said
Klotz.
"It
is a combination of
showmanship
and
com-
petitiveness." He explained that
the Globetrotters also feel much
the same, and
if
they are not
playing well there will be little or
no show.
As for his own nine players
Klotz says, "They all have talent
and never quit. I check very
closely into each player's
-background when they are
recruited, it
is
a must. Without a
good attitude there is no way they
will last." This was very
exemplified when he threw out
one of
his
own N
.
J. Reds because
he didn't liJce the player's attitude
on the court.
He also got upset when the
officials missed some obvious
calls. "I feel that the show is not
totally
dependent
on
the
refereeing, and therefore it
should be like any other game,"
he said.
This attitude of frustration
towards officials was probably
fostered when he played for the
Washington Bullets in the late
40's.
Klotz said he
still
works out
with the team, and will play
part
of the 230 game schedule,
especially during the summer or
' if
there is an injury over the eight
month season. "I'm
in
as good a
shape
as any of my players," said
Klotz in a serious tone.

False accusations
To the Editors:
In

issue of the
Circle, Bro. Belanger was quoted
as saying that Gregory House
is
"Falling apart because students
have no continuity." We the
members of Gregory House feel
this
is
an unjustified attack on
our community. Bro
.
Belanger
has no facts to base his ac-
cusations on. Not once this
semester has he set foot in our
house. Not once has he been
present at any one of our house
meetings or functions.
We, the residents
of
Gregory
House, do not believe we are
falling apart. We have unity as
well as continuity. We are an
active thriving house. Those who
have previously lived in the house
will attest to
.
'the fact that
Gregory House
is
a much better
place to live in than it was last
year.
Rather than condemn BrG.
Belanger for his remarks, we
cordially invite him to attend our
next house meeting, next Wed-
nesday at
9:30

m. We also ask
that in the future he refrain from
making derogatory comments
until
he has checked out all the
facts.

Track Championshin on May 6,
said Stevens. Other key events
will be the New York State Track
and Field Championships and the
National Division III Cham-
pionship, he said.
Coach Stevens believes three
members of the team are capable
of qualifying for the natio~al
championships. The three m-
clude freshman Mike Morris, Pat
Lappin and sophomore Jerry
Scholder. Morris, from Our Lady
of Lourdes- High School in
Poughkeepsie, was the 1976
National AAU Junior Champion
As
in previous years, the
distance runners are expected to
contribute to the team's success.
Unfortunately, the squad should
be hampered in the weight events
(the hammer throw and the shot
put) because of a poor turnout.
Stevens estimated that fresh-
men make up half the team. If
these freshmen perform as well
as they did in cross country,
Stevens has the right to think the
1977-78 indoor season will
be
special.
