On
The Draft
·
·
.
.
by James Cosen~no
·
Want to ~ow whatto
do
abouf yoor particwar dt'aft probiem? See a
draft counselor right away; Thi
.
s was
.
the opinion of Mr. Robert Stover,
.
a volunteer draft counselor for the Dutchess County Draft Counseling
·
Service in an interview on the subject
of
the new draft law .
.
·
.
Mr. Stover presented me with a background concerning the new
.
law. Congress
has
extended the power of the President to induct until
June
~.1973,
at which time the entire draft situation will be reviewed.
This is a major change in the length of the term, Prior
.
to
this
year, the
draft system was extended and reviewed every
4
·
year$. The
·
1ottery
•
calls for induction
of
10,000 men for the last 3 months
.
of 1971. 6500 will
.
be
called within the peric_xl of Nov. 1 to Nov .18. The remaining 3500 will
be
called between Nov.
29
and Dec. 9.
li
you have a 1A classification
·
with a lottery number over 125, the chances
are
excellent that you will
·
...
not be drafted. The present graduating class will not be included •in
this figure if they are presently holding a student deferment
As
to
what lottery number will be the cut off point next year
'Yill
depend on
the world situation. This number is fi~ble and changes each year. ·
Robert
·
Stover said that he
sees
the present situation as a move
toward a volunteer army which was promised by President Nixon
·
in
·
his last campaign. However., it is generally believed that
a
volunteer
Army will not be achievable by 1973. Student deferments
will
continue
for all undergraduates who were presently persuing a full time course
·
of instruction
·
during the 1970-71 regular academic school year. This
does not include this year's Freshman,
·
It
is still
.
not clear if the
summer session prior to the 1971-72 school year is included in the
period acceptable fer student deferments
:
This would include all
students who were enrolled in 1970. You did not have to. have a
deferm~nt at that time, nor did you have to be registered for the draft
·
(for those under 18). Pre induction physicals will be given to all men
who have reached their 19th birthday in 1971 (including those who
have just received their lottery numbers) if they have a number
between
1
and
50.
The purpose of this is to have a number
·
of men
already·processed
so
that they will be avai\able for induction in 1972 .
.
However, if you are a full time student your order: to
_
report for in
-
.
duction can be postponed until the end of the term or the semester.
This is also applicable to freshmen
.
li
you are a senior,
this
would
be
·
postponed until after graduation.
-
·
. ·
·
.
If
you now have a
·
number over 125, Mr. Stover suggests waiting
.
witil
late November before dropping it to be included in this year's
·
.
draft. This would
have
to be done by writing a
.
request to
_
your local
draft board. Before doing so, see a draft counselor. There are various
legal alternatives to the draft. Among l;hese are: medical deferment,
hardship, 2 dependents, deferments for students of the ministry and
.
sole surviving son. The idea of sole surviving son has been expanded.
If
you lost
a
member
of
yoW' immediate family through service in the
military after Dec. 31, 1959; you are elligible for this deferment. The
immediate family would include brothers, sisters, and your father,
.
If
you are registered during a time when
a
member of your immediate
family is captured or missing due to military service after Dec.
·
31,
1959
;
you are also entitled
to
this deferment
.
·
·
There have
peen
a number of changes in appeal proceedµre: Since
the Ehlert decision in the Supreme Court, draft boards will not act on

.
is ~n interesting reactim_ froni last
Tuesday's
Co~vo¢ation. A
friend
said:
"Notice that
.
the emphasis was
all
on what disturbs ~ .
the noise, the disturbances. Nobody
-
~
seemed to worry about
-
f:11e

corruption setting in:

drunk~ness, drug addiction, little comm';IJlltY

loss of value~.
As

no
noise. I
·
don't intend to

lose $12,000for an education!' .
•·
.
·
·
.
At first most students here would probably react adversely
to
this
opinion
.
But in general, there is such goodness;
·
deep concern, among
our students at Marist, that on second thought most would agr~ that
there is much selfishness in our attitudes and gripes.
·
.
·
·
.
·
I believe in "Live and let live." I'll live the way.I understand is best
·
for my personal growth. 'And

I'll
let

others live according to t~e ~ay

they see things. I don't intend to change the~ to my way of ~mking

But I am
·
coocerned about every person on this campus. Anything that
you do today that will make you less 'you' tomorrow is bad ... ba

you. bad for me, bad for

the world

who is unconcerned, makes it that much mor~ diff1cuU

Such

I believe this is God's

being here, our needs. His Spirit is mo!ing about, setting ~e worl~

_ Despite, maybe, a som~what apparent _selfls~ at~1~de on Con-

OCTOBER. 28 1971
·
In the Spring of 71, The
·
King
Committee held one
of
their first
-
Conscience
·
of Marist Series. The-
.
committee's topic was Rural
Poverty in Dutchess
-
Cowtty;
their speaker was Frank San-
deford
,
Director of the OEO of-
fice in
•
Millbrook. From this-
.
meeting grew the Harlem Yalley
·-
Club
,
better known as the Dover
?lai ns · Project.
.
At this
'
King Committee
meeting
,
Dr
.
Daniel Kirk asked
·
Mr
.
Sandeford if he could keep
10-
-
15
students busy,
.
working with
the rural poor. The Answer was a
positive yes! That seemed to
be
the
.
point from
_
where the
program took off. Eight students
showed definite interest in
_
working in such a project. They
are Thomas

Breslin, Marty
Keeley. Larry Lomuto
,
Bernie
Mulligan,

Mike

Mai{fa, Jim

Bill O'Leary and Jack
Gordon. There wasn't enough
time to get the program ac-

credited for a full fifteen credits,
so the students signed up for
various courses and

with the
approval from the instructors,

other in the town of Dover Plains.
There they set up their living
quarters and classrooms com-
bined
.
Then came one of the
hardest parts of
the
program,
being accepted as part of the
community
.
If we have learned
anything it is that to help a
community you must become
part of that community
.
Without
the heJp of the outreach workers
of the OEO, this problem may
never have been alleviated to the
extent that it was. After meeting
a large part of the community it
was time to begin initiating our
own programs
,
such as high
school equivalancy, senior citizen
activities,
food
programs,
tutoring in the school system,
tutoring the illiterate, tran-
.
sportation, starting a teen center,
working with day care children
,
helping in the formation of a
Welfare Rights Organization and
surveying the safety conditions of
school bus transportation
.
With the help of Marty Corbin,
a lecturer at Marist who was
designated as coordinator of the
program. we hope
to
publish a
booklet at the end of this
semester listing the programs we
were
_
involved in and the ex-

we
either are now or are becoming,
through continued exposure to
our
society, very time~nscious
people. I believe this is with good
reason. Religious beliefs aside, it
seems apparent that we are here
for a limited amount of time. Un-
fortunately, as has many times
been
the case in the past, this
time preoccupation does not
seem to weigh heavily on
us when
the question of social change
arises. Answers are either

.
The success of any program
having its roots_in the community
·
·
is based op the continuity of the
program itself. We can never
hope
·
to
·
alleviate the problems
which burden the poor in four
short months
.
All
that can be
done is to start programs now
and plan them now so that they
~n be carried on
in the
semesters ahead
.
We could very
easily faU into the trap of
providing
a
mere "pair
of
hands"
to the people in the Dover Plain.5
area and by doing so make them
more reliant on
us
rather than
themselves. This is why it is so
important to have a program
orientation rather than a service
orientation in dealing with the
problems
of
the rural poor. Once
a continuous program is started
you
can
step back and pray that it
will move ·on its own momentum,
as
opposed to a service program
·
where
the
only inertia is in your
hailds.

This is not an abnormal case at
all. I mentioned only a few of the
tmfortunate situations that she
runs
into socially, racially and
financially. But what concerns
me now
is
the cut
on
her welfare
check.
Article
Six
of the
Bill
or
Welfare
Rights
states that a welfare
recipient has "the right to a fair

reduced or cut off

who
to
call for further advice, so she
runs into a dead end. The only
thing she can do is accept what
they give her and try
to

that .
What is needed here is a
Welfare Rights Organization like
the one just recently formed near
the area of Dover Plains
.
Here
these people will meet with
other
people who are on welfare. Here
they will find out that they have
rights just like any other citizen
plus special rights guaranteed by
Federal and State welfare laws.
Together with the help of legal
aid they will demand their rights,
implement those rights, and
protect their rights. Now they can
possibly restore self-respect.
After living.in a society where
the
welfare
recipient
is
stereotyped
as
"lazy and shif-
tless" and every middle class
person is complaining that their
tax dollars are being
used
to pay
for these people
to
sit on their
asses.
this eventually has serious
effects on these people. They
begin to believe that they are no

Through their lack of direction. and inability
to·
deal with the
true
problems of the students, the admiriistration has successfully cut _
down
on student initiative to deal ~th their.own problems. When
_confronted with issues of resident life, student isolationism, paternal
control and racism, the administratorsiend not to administrate.
If
they don't intend to move on
the
racial issues, then we suggest

they
leave. Last week the Student Governmenflost the services of
B.ill

as
Attorney General and head of the resurrected Student's
Judiciary. Obviously, he could
no
longer deal with a Dean. of Students
and other administrators who
med
meetings and committees to
present justifications for their-own motives. They let students take .
care of the menial matters, such as
rug
thefts; but kept.issues such as
student activities outside the campus - this includes students dealing
with academic freedoms in Poughkeepsie '.High School to civil suits
·involving students, and
the
more serious events within the campus,
such as guns, rape, etc.

. We feel the Student Judiciary must be· in full control of student
discipline, not just what Security, the Residence D_irector, Mr. An-

of
Students deems fit for the students to
handle. The •more paternalistic they get, in terms of'dealing with

Cop-Out
by
Dr.
Peter O'Kee1e·
·. On
Tuesday, October
19,
Marist ·coll'$e held a Convocation to
confront. as we supposed, a crisis in community living on our campus.
Instead_of a confrontation we witnessed a·classical, universal cop-out.
As
one representative after another summarized the results of four·
how-s of group discussions it became quite obvious that the Marist
community is either. incapable or unwilling to confront the new
establishment, the sovereign. self. Woe unto him who should. dare
attempt to define the limits of this new demigod. The only feeling of
. solidarity
I
experienced on Tuesday was the almost universal op-
. position to my suggestions
that
we. attempt to define our position on
drunkenness. sexual license, and pot
m
campus. One gentleman even
suggested we set
up
separate dorms for those who.wanted to come in
drunk and raise hell. All this fro11_1 the generation that has such definite
ideas on the immorality of Vietnam, prison reform, and racial in-
justice. How easy it is to see the speck in another's eye and ignore the
. cancer in our own. Are we turning into a generation of hypocrites ·
painted outside with empty -platitudes like "do your thing as long as
!'OU
do not
hurt others''
and
shock over the deception·and immorality
of public life while ins!de we have not the guts to confront ourselves!
Perhaps tbs most telling ·indictmeni--the Marist Commuriity has
suffered in years is Father Gallant's answer in the recent Circle, to the
question " ... why ean't
I
recommend Marist Campus life to my own
nephews and nieces?" After describing the tyranny of the beast " ... on
almost
every floor ... " this Rousseauvian:preacher
of
man's natural
goodness concluded,
"I
just couldn't face iny family after four years;
if it meant
$12,000
wasted, four years
of
a lifetime lost, stunted growth,
one big
co
pout.
I
don't have to face the families of other copouts."
The Marlst Community better prepare itself " ... to face the parents
or
the other copouts ... "; otherwise its recruiting program will have no
more m«ral justification than the Vietnam draft in the eyes of Father
Ben-igan's followers. .
.
·
If this Community cannot define its position on pot, drunkenness,
and. sexual license. it has no right to invite parents to send their
sons
and daughters here.
If
the students are constitutionally incapable of ·
drawing a line. between the laissez faire individualism that is ex-
ploiting our campus and community responsibility then the ad-
ministrati_on had better resume its responsibilities in this area. In the
final analysis, the administration will be held responsible when the
honeymoon is over and the good ship lollipop is wrecked on a reef of
scandals. Those who were most persistent in their defense of absolute
individualism will be writi11g "Dear John" letters saying what a cool

reservations about how a group

students deduced that Marist at

On
The Draft
·
·
.
.
by James Cosen~no
·
Want to ~ow whatto
do
abouf yoor particwar dt'aft probiem? See a
draft counselor right away; Thi
.
s was
.
the opinion of Mr. Robert Stover,
.
a volunteer draft counselor for the Dutchess County Draft Counseling
·
Service in an interview on the subject
of
the new draft law .
.
·
.
Mr. Stover presented me with a background concerning the new
.
law. Congress
has
extended the power of the President to induct until
June
~.1973,
at which time the entire draft situation will be reviewed.
This is a major change in the length of the term, Prior
.
to
this
year, the
draft system was extended and reviewed every
4
·
year$. The
·
1ottery
•
calls for induction
of
10,000 men for the last 3 months
.
of 1971. 6500 will
.
be
called within the peric_xl of Nov. 1 to Nov .18. The remaining 3500 will
be
called between Nov.
29
and Dec. 9.
li
you have a 1A classification
·
with a lottery number over 125, the chances
are
excellent that you will
·
...
not be drafted. The present graduating class will not be included •in
this figure if they are presently holding a student deferment
As
to
what lottery number will be the cut off point next year
'Yill
depend on
the world situation. This number is fi~ble and changes each year. ·
Robert
·
Stover said that he
sees
the present situation as a move
toward a volunteer army which was promised by President Nixon
·
in
·
his last campaign. However., it is generally believed that
a
volunteer
Army will not be achievable by 1973. Student deferments
will
continue
for all undergraduates who were presently persuing a full time course
·
of instruction
·
during the 1970-71 regular academic school year. This
does not include this year's Freshman,
·
It
is still
.
not clear if the
summer session prior to the 1971-72 school year is included in the
period acceptable fer student deferments
:
This would include all
students who were enrolled in 1970. You did not have to. have a
deferm~nt at that time, nor did you have to be registered for the draft
·
(for those under 18). Pre induction physicals will be given to all men
who have reached their 19th birthday in 1971 (including those who
have just received their lottery numbers) if they have a number
between
1
and
50.
The purpose of this is to have a number
·
of men
already·processed
so
that they will be avai\able for induction in 1972 .
.
However, if you are a full time student your order: to
_
report for in
-
.
duction can be postponed until the end of the term or the semester.
This is also applicable to freshmen
.
li
you are a senior,
this
would
be
·
postponed until after graduation.
-
·
. ·
·
.
If
you now have a
·
number over 125, Mr. Stover suggests waiting
.
witil
late November before dropping it to be included in this year's
·
.
draft. This would
have
to be done by writing a
.
request to
_
your local
draft board. Before doing so, see a draft counselor. There are various
legal alternatives to the draft. Among l;hese are: medical deferment,
hardship, 2 dependents, deferments for students of the ministry and
.
sole surviving son. The idea of sole surviving son has been expanded.
If
you lost
a
member
of
yoW' immediate family through service in the
military after Dec. 31, 1959; you are elligible for this deferment. The
immediate family would include brothers, sisters, and your father,
.
If
you are registered during a time when
a
member of your immediate
family is captured or missing due to military service after Dec.
·
31,
1959
;
you are also entitled
to
this deferment
.
·
·
There have
peen
a number of changes in appeal proceedµre: Since
the Ehlert decision in the Supreme Court, draft boards will not act on

.
is ~n interesting reactim_ froni last
Tuesday's
Co~vo¢ation. A
friend
said:
"Notice that
.
the emphasis was
all
on what disturbs ~ .
the noise, the disturbances. Nobody
-
~
seemed to worry about
-
f:11e
.
corruption setting in:
·
drunk~ness, drug addiction, little comm';IJlltY
.·
love or concern
;
loss of value~.
As
long as these people make
no
noise. I
·
don't intend to
·
lose $12,000for an education!' .
•·
.
·
·
.
At first most students here would probably react adversely
to
this
opinion
.
But in general, there is such goodness;
·
deep concern, among
our students at Marist, that on second thought most would agr~ that
there is much selfishness in our attitudes and gripes.
·
.
·
·
.
·
I believe in "Live and let live." I'll live the way.I understand is best
·
for my personal growth. 'And
·
I'll
let
.
others live according to t~e ~ay
.
they see things. I don't intend to change the~ to my way of ~mking
.
'
,
But I am
·
coocerned about every person on this campus. Anything that
you do today that will make you less 'you' tomorrow is bad ... ba
.
d for
you. bad for me, bad for
-
the world
; .
•
·
.

·
.

I believe that every drunk, every drug addict,. e!eryone wh~ hates,
who is unconcerned, makes it that much mor~ diff1cuU
t:,
a~hieve the
kind
of
.
world
we dream of
.
Such
evils, even
i!
they don t dis~b you

directly now, accumulate into a hopel~s rubbish heap; that
will
affect
all' men eventually.

Some
ci
the utopian ideals of letting e
_

live his own life
_
s~le
as he wishes· might seem plausible in unreal college campus_ l1vmg.
But there'
11
be a day when a
girl

the life styles of

those in-her neighborhood w1~ be ve_ry much her

just love to

would I be if I weren't concerned about lack of gro!th

be if you weren't concerned
either?
-

·
·
I believe this is God's
.
world, we are his people, we live with people
he created, we live iil his presence. He is alive to our existence, our
being here, our needs. His Spirit is mo!ing about, setting ~e worl~
afire. There is already some of that fire m us and we must discover 1t
and kindle it till it bums brightly. I can see in many students whQ care
the same anxiety that Christ expressed when he sai~•-"I came to set
the earth on fire and how I wish it were already kindled. I have a
baptism to receive and how distre~ed I am until ~tis ove_r

_ Despite, maybe, a som~what apparent _selfls~ at~1~de on Con-
vocation Day I still felt that it was a question of ma!nhty to express
oneself. that the large majority

better this world, to be concerned about fellow students not growing

OCTOBER. 28 1971
·
In the Spring of 71, The
·
King
Committee held one
of
their first
-
Conscience
·
of Marist Series. The-
.
committee's topic was Rural
Poverty in Dutchess
-
Cowtty;
their speaker was Frank San-
deford
,
Director of the OEO of-
fice in
•
Millbrook. From this-
.
meeting grew the Harlem Yalley
·-
Club
,
better known as the Dover
?lai ns · Project.
.
At this
'
King Committee
meeting
,
Dr
.
Daniel Kirk asked
·
Mr
.
Sandeford if he could keep
10-
-
15
students busy,
.
working with
the rural poor. The Answer was a
positive yes! That seemed to
be
the
.
point from
_
where the
program took off. Eight students
showed definite interest in
_
working in such a project. They
are Thomas
··
Breslin, Marty
Keeley. Larry Lomuto
,
Bernie
Mulligan,
·
Mike
·
Mai{fa, Jim
Corbett
.
Bill O'Leary and Jack
Gordon. There wasn't enough
time to get the program ac-
.
credited for a full fifteen credits,
so the students signed up for
various courses and
·
with the
approval from the instructors,
t
.
ook them independently.

other in the town of Dover Plains.
There they set up their living
quarters and classrooms com-
bined
.
Then came one of the
hardest parts of
the
program,
being accepted as part of the
community
.
If we have learned
anything it is that to help a
community you must become
part of that community
.
Without
the heJp of the outreach workers
of the OEO, this problem may
never have been alleviated to the
extent that it was. After meeting
a large part of the community it
was time to begin initiating our
own programs
,
such as high
school equivalancy, senior citizen
activities,
food
programs,
tutoring in the school system,
tutoring the illiterate, tran-
.
sportation, starting a teen center,
working with day care children
,
helping in the formation of a
Welfare Rights Organization and
surveying the safety conditions of
school bus transportation
.
With the help of Marty Corbin,
a lecturer at Marist who was
designated as coordinator of the
program. we hope
to
publish a
booklet at the end of this
semester listing the programs we
were
_
involved in and the ex-

Time is another matter that

·
cor-
pulent cats. For the most part,
we
either are now or are becoming,
through continued exposure to
our
society, very time~nscious
people. I believe this is with good
reason. Religious beliefs aside, it
seems apparent that we are here
for a limited amount of time. Un-
fortunately, as has many times
been
the case in the past, this
time preoccupation does not
seem to weigh heavily on
us when
the question of social change
arises. Answers are either
directed toward such things as
by Larry Lomuto
.
The success of any program
having its roots_in the community
·
·
is based op the continuity of the
program itself. We can never
hope
·
to
·
alleviate the problems
which burden the poor in four
short months
.
All
that can be
done is to start programs now
and plan them now so that they
~n be carried on
in the
semesters ahead
.
We could very
easily faU into the trap of
providing
a
mere "pair
of
hands"
to the people in the Dover Plain.5
area and by doing so make them
more reliant on
us
rather than
themselves. This is why it is so
important to have a program
orientation rather than a service
orientation in dealing with the
problems
of
the rural poor. Once
a continuous program is started
you
can
step back and pray that it
will move ·on its own momentum,
as
opposed to a service program
·
where
the
only inertia is in your
hailds.
·
There
is
so
much more to do in
Dover we haven't even scratched
the surface.
Sure.
we have
started
programs

and have

The sparkle of hope we

would disappear and with it the

take its place.
Before asking yourself
if
you
would like to work for a semester
in a
·
rural poverty area-ask
yourself if you can. The switch
from academia to world reality is
.
a harrowing one
.
Gone are your
catagories, reference pages and
card catalogues, gone is the logic
in situations, of which you held
so
dear. The real world
of
the
poor
is
not logical, it's not articulate, but
it's real. For one hundred people
you have one hundred different
problems to contend v.ith
,
all
real
and au illogical. You walk into a
rat-trap
and
ask yourself "how
can anyone live like this?" and
after
a
\\-bile you realize how. It's
insane, it's crc1Zy but it's fact; it's

properly and the
-
landlord doesn't
care because he isn't making
enough for her rent money; she
doesn't get her money's worth of
food stamps because the stores
jack
up
the prices; her oldest boy
of fourteen wants to quit school
'cause the kids pick
on
him about
the way he dresses and the
principal doesn't want him there
'cause his poor academic rating
doesn
'
t add to the school credit at
all-and the Welfare Department
says it's just to cut her check
·cause the apartment isn't in
good shape!
This is not an abnormal case at
all. I mentioned only a few of the
tmfortunate situations that she
runs
into socially, racially and
financially. But what concerns
me now
is
the cut
on
her welfare
check.
Article
Six
of the
Bill
or
Welfare
Rights
states that a welfare
recipient has "the right to a fair
hearing before the check can be
reduced or cut off
and before
the
of her friends will sympathize
with her. And she might even
have enough courage to call her
case
worker who
will
say that the
Dept. had to make the cut
.
ac-
cording to the laws and there's
nothing he cairdo for her either.
She wouldn
'
t e
v
en know
who
to
call for further advice, so she
runs into a dead end. The only
thing she can do is accept what
they give her and try
to
live on
that .
What is needed here is a
Welfare Rights Organization like
the one just recently formed near
the area of Dover Plains
.
Here
these people will meet with
other
people who are on welfare. Here
they will find out that they have

Through their lack of direction. and inability
to·
deal with the
true
problems of the students, the admiriistration has successfully cut _
down
on student initiative to deal ~th their.own problems. When
_confronted with issues of resident life, student isolationism, paternal
control and racism, the administratorsiend not to administrate.
If
they don't intend to move on
the
racial issues, then we suggest
.
they
leave. Last week the Student Governmenflost the services of
B.ill
Deucher
as
Attorney General and head of the resurrected Student's
Judiciary. Obviously, he could
no
longer deal with a Dean. of Students
and other administrators who
med
meetings and committees to
present justifications for their-own motives. They let students take .
care of the menial matters, such as
rug
thefts; but kept.issues such as
student activities outside the campus - this includes students dealing
with academic freedoms in Poughkeepsie '.High School to civil suits
·involving students, and
the
more serious events within the campus,
such as guns, rape, etc.

. We feel the Student Judiciary must be· in full control of student
discipline, not just what Security, the Residence D_irector, Mr. An-
thony Campilii, or the Dean
of
Students deems fit for the students to
handle. The •more paternalistic they get, in terms of'dealing with
. student discipline and in terms of using key students to give consensus
to a structural change ·that will in fact change nothing, the more key

will
reject them. totally for their inability

Cop-Out
by
Dr.
Peter O'Kee1e·
·. On
Tuesday, October
19,
Marist ·coll'$e held a Convocation to
confront. as we supposed, a crisis in community living on our campus.
Instead_of a confrontation we witnessed a·classical, universal cop-out.
As
one representative after another summarized the results of four·
how-s of group discussions it became quite obvious that the Marist
community is either. incapable or unwilling to confront the new
establishment, the sovereign. self. Woe unto him who should. dare
attempt to define the limits of this new demigod. The only feeling of
. solidarity
I
experienced on Tuesday was the almost universal op-
. position to my suggestions
that
we. attempt to define our position on
drunkenness. sexual license, and pot
m
campus. One gentleman even
suggested we set
up
separate dorms for those who.wanted to come in
drunk and raise hell. All this fro11_1 the generation that has such definite
ideas on the immorality of Vietnam, prison reform, and racial in-
justice. How easy it is to see the speck in another's eye and ignore the
. cancer in our own. Are we turning into a generation of hypocrites ·
painted outside with empty -platitudes like "do your thing as long as
!'OU
do not
hurt others''
and
shock over the deception·and immorality
of public life while ins!de we have not the guts to confront ourselves!
Perhaps tbs most telling ·indictmeni--the Marist Commuriity has
suffered in years is Father Gallant's answer in the recent Circle, to the
question " ... why ean't
I
recommend Marist Campus life to my own
nephews and nieces?" After describing the tyranny of the beast " ... on
almost
every floor ... " this Rousseauvian:preacher
of
man's natural
goodness concluded,
"I
just couldn't face iny family after four years;
if it meant
$12,000
wasted, four years
of
a lifetime lost, stunted growth,
one big
co
pout.
I
don't have to face the families of other copouts."
The Marlst Community better prepare itself " ... to face the parents
or
the other copouts ... "; otherwise its recruiting program will have no
more m«ral justification than the Vietnam draft in the eyes of Father
Ben-igan's followers. .
.
·
If this Community cannot define its position on pot, drunkenness,
and. sexual license. it has no right to invite parents to send their
sons
and daughters here.
If
the students are constitutionally incapable of ·
drawing a line. between the laissez faire individualism that is ex-
ploiting our campus and community responsibility then the ad-
ministrati_on had better resume its responsibilities in this area. In the
final analysis, the administration will be held responsible when the
honeymoon is over and the good ship lollipop is wrecked on a reef of
scandals. Those who were most persistent in their defense of absolute
individualism will be writi11g "Dear John" letters saying what a cool
place Marist was
