i
d Ryan. "This is
unfortunate in this day and age
when such matters need to be
addressed on a more human

·
Roberta Amato, coordinator of
Marist's counseling services,
stressed that a differentiation
should be made between sexual
activi
t
y and sexual promiscuity
.
"I get the feeling most s~udents
who come in for counseling are
involved
in
monagoinous
relationships," said Amato. She
.
went on to say that students talk
more
.
about the essence of
relationships, not just sex.

world are

,
" said Sullivan. He went
on to say that there is no way to
estimate the amount or lack of
sexual activity on campus
.
"As much as people joke about
sexual openness; it's
.
a very closed
·
issue," said Sullivan. "People
generally don't talk about
·
these
things, not even within the
family."
-
·
According to Sullivan, students
have come to him after having an
abortion or with the
.
knowledge
.
that they are
-
pregnant.
-
.
He
.
stressed that the role of coun-
.
selors on campus is to help
.
"We
·
are not here to judge people,''
.
Sullivan said.
With the relatively new fears of
herpes and Acquire Immune
Deficiency Syndrome (AIQS),
Sullivan suggested, sexual activity
may have decreased, on campus

and off. "There is a need for
·
people to think twice about
promiscuous sex,'' Sullivan said
:
According to Ryan, herpes may
have something to do with an
overall decrease in sexual activity
,
but he said he felt it was less of a
concern
on
campus
than
elsewhere in society.
·
"The issue has been
·
blown out
of proportion,''. said Ryan
,
"I
haven't seen a true case of genital
herpes since I've been here."
Though college officials cannot
estimate statistically how much
sexual activity has increased or
decreased in the past few years,
they are aware that many students
are sexually active
.
"
This is reality," said Sullivar.

Center." They are the suicide
prevention signs, but why are they
there?
.
.
According to Dr. David W.
Sherwood, division chief at the
Mid-Hudson
·
Mental Health
Clinic, the signs are a vital part of
the suicide deterrant program in

the Kingston-Rhinecliff,

and the
Newburgh~Beacon bridges.
·
"When the Bridge Authority
first put the signs up, they placed
·
them high on the bridge to avoid
vandalism,'' said Sherwood.
"But the depressed person looks
down, not up, so we had to have
them lowered."
"The signs are small but they
were made small on purpose."
said Sherwood. "We didn't want
them to distract the drivers but we
wanted them to catch the eye of
the pedestrian."

"Norman thinks that we are here
to honor him. What he doesn't
know is that this is just a way that
Murray figured out how to make
another buck for the
·school,"
said Daley.
_
But not all that was said about
Norman was in jest. While
presenting the President's Award
Dennis Murray, president of
· Marist, spoke of Norman's work ·
as a professor. "His significant
contribution here at Marist with
the internship program,
the
communications program and the
Lowell Thomas Communications
Center have been remarkable,"
said Murray.
·
·
Upon presenting the Alumni
Award, Bryan. Maloney, Marist
College alumni director, said that
Norman represents the quality
that makes Marist faculty special.
"As the internship director,
sports announcer and professor,
his expertise enthusiasm and love
for Marist inspires all of us," said
Maloney.
After listening to the
.
remarks
·
of the 13 roasters, Norman finally
was able to stand at the podium.
After getting back at some of the
roasters for their condescending
words, he did have some ap-
preciating remarks. "I'm very
flattered by all of this, and I
thank you as a teacher, broad-
caster and especially as a friend;''
said Norman .
Norman later said a special
thanks should go to his wife,
Camille
.
"If
it hadn't been for
Camille I probably wouldn't have
come to Marist. She is· my biggest
supporter and Marist's biggest

N[inistrj, to expand/or Protestants,
·.
Jews
by Sandy Daniels
Campus Ministry is initiating a
program to a.ssess the needs and
··
interests of Protestant and Jewish
students on campus.
·.
According to

Rev. Richard
-LaMorte, assistant
.
dean of
.
student affairs arid Sr. Eilleen
Halloran, assistant campus
minister, two area
-
residents are
working with campus ministry so
that,
:
together,
;
they
·
can
·
try
·
Jo
fulfill the needs of all
-
the
students.
.
Protestant representative
.
on
staff Amity Currie is from Christ
Church in Poughkeepsie. Elaine
Newman, who will be working
with the Jewish students, is from
Temple
Bethel,
also
of.
Poughkeepsie'.
This relatively new change in
the cam
.
pus ministry staff oc-
curred when Rhys Williams,
former Protestant chaplain on
campus, retired last year.
According to LaMorte, . this
new program
.
has three main
goals. They are to identify the
Protestant and Jewish students on
campus and provide for
.
the
·
·
religious needs of all students, to
give
campus ministry a full
program in regard to religion, and
to have students begin to see that,
Advertising Club tries to regroup
along with ministers and rabbis,
laypersons are interested in
religious development as well.
"I would like to see students
learn about each others religion,"
said LaMorte
.

Kerry
Judge
A
five-year-old club, which fell
defunct last year, is
.
facing a
.
·
revival in the spring.
The
former
Ad-
vertising/Marketing club will be
gaining new life during the spring
semester, after falling apart last
year; The failure of the club,
according to adjunct business
Professor Jake Maness, was due
to the lack of sponsorship from
the faculty.
.
According
·
to Maness,
the
.
marketing club used to sell the
Marist yearbook on a percentage
basis, but never· received the
percentage for selling it. Maness
said, "We got no recognition
'
or
commission so we lost interest."
·
"It
takes organization plus
'
financial incentives to keep a club
going," Maness added.
The revised edition of the club
will have Eugene Rebcook as its
advisor. Rebcook, a professor at
Marist, said,
"We
are using the
same riame and Constitution as
the old club. It is up to the
students whether the name is to be
changed to just an advertising
club.''
.
The club will not be just a
continuati,on of the old marketing
club,
.
Rebcook said. He said that
the club will not be affiliated with
the
American
Marketing
Association as the old club was.
"We will hopefully be affiliated
with the Direct Marketing
Association," Rebcook said.
The club's major function,
according to Rebcook, will be "a
support arm for the advertising
education in the classroom. You
get involved professionally in the
field, it may even open up job
contacts for you.''
Rebcook said the club will
conduct career days and other
events.
Rebcook has temporarily
appointed officers in order to get
the club off the ground. Tony
Conway will serve as president,
and Jim Barnes as vice president.
Rebcook said these officers will
remain until the elections of other
officers in the spring.
."The only way the club will
fail
as
if
there is a lack of interest
from students," Rebcook said.
According to the advisor, there
are already 47 people expressing
interest in the club.
Halloran pointed out that
many
·
students view campus
ministry
as
a
Catholic
organization. "We're a religious
organization here to serve the
needs of all students," said
Halloran. "If we're not serving
Protestants and
.
Jews, we're not
serving the whole community."
According to LaMorte and
Halloran, it is hard to define the
Protestant and Jewish population
on campus. Estimates were made
8% and l
Ofo,
respectively.
Currie has worked with
children and youth in the past at
Christ Church. She said that she
wants to be
in
contact with the
Protestant students and is willing
to help in any way.
"I want to help students feel
that they belong to the religious
and Christian community on
campus," said Currie.
Newman has been a part of
Interfaith programs at Tempel
Bethel. She said that she is excited
about working with campus
ministry. "My goal is to give
support to the Jewish students
and act as a liasion between all the
students on campus," Newman
said.
"Both Amity and Elaine are
qualifed
because they are
believers in their particular
religious traditions and are
knowledgeable of religion," said
LaMorte.
LaMorte also pointed out that
an important part of this program
will be the willingness of
Protestant and Jewish students to
identify themselves, if interested,
so that their needs can be
assessed
.
Halloran said that students
should contact any campus
ministry staff person if they're at
all interested
.
"We don't know
what people are looking for,"
said Halloran. "This is a plea on
our part to help and be
available."

'Degrading' III
To the Editor: '
.
·
: In
your - · editorial,
."Degrading," you brought to the
attention of your readers the very
real danger of sexual harassment
. occurring during the process of
. human communication. Society
. today is too quick to tolerate a
crude comment, degrading sug-
gestion, or sexist choice of words
as ''onlyajoke."
Each of your readers. should
know that this institution is com-
mitted to the principle that its
students, faculty, and staff have a
right to work and study without
being subjected to sexual harass-
ment. Anyone who would suggest
that a student's grade, recommen-
dation, or job may be determined

by student's willingness to accept .
unwelcome sexual advances,. re-
quests for sexual 'favors and/or
other verbal or physical conduct
of a sexual nature is in direct
violation of this basic principle.
If a student has reason to
believe that he or she is being sub:
jected to a form of sexual harass-
ment, please report the matter to
me. Should a student feel reluc-
tant to discuss the• situation with
me,
I . will
recommend ad-
ministrative staff. (men and
women) who are prepared to deal
with these cases.

·
Although learning the
language was our primary reason
for coming here, we've found that
we get just as much, if not more,
education outside the classroom.
.
.
During our
·
free time we've
been able to see the Louvre (we've
already been there three times and
have yet to see half of it), and a
folkloric
.
festival celebrating the
grape harvest. We've heard organ
concerts at Notre-Dame, starving
musicians on the Metro and a
crowd of people, led by an organ
grinder, singing an old French
children's song. And we've tasted
ice cream
.
from the house of
Berthillon - conveniently located
just around the corner from our
foyer!
However,
·
with all these ex-
tr a ordinary
opportunities
surrounding us, what we really
wanted to do was meet an or-
dinary French family. We were
invited to lunch at the apartment
of Mme. Beret and her grand-
daughter and thought that would
be the perfect chance. We should
.
have known as we climbed the
spiral staircase covered with fine
carpet that "ordinary" would not
be the word for this family, and
we were quickly convinced of the
fact when Mme Beret opened the
door -

In the event of a nuclear attack, October 22 of this year, three
million people marched in a peace
movement in Germany. A human
chain of 200,000 people joined
hands in an effort to unite and
ma'ke people more aware of the
situation.
"The film 'The Day After,'
was a very important event for the
American people,'' said Eckert.
"To raise the awareness of U.S.
citizens, media of this nature
must be used. We must talk about
this issue. The people in this coun-
try are afraid of a nuclear war but
fear there is nothing they can do.
They must educate themselves on

As you sit in the Marist
Computer center doing a
program due for tomorrow's
class, you may hear strange
voices. Those voices are
coming from the new talking
computer terminal.
This new addition to the
computer center was installed
a couple of weeks ago for Jhe
visually impaired according to
Diane Perreira, director of
special services program.- ·
The computer terminal cost
$6,000 Perreira said. The cost
was split between special
services and the computer
center.
The decision to get this
computer terminal was made
by special services and the
computer center.

yet.
Perreira said: "[ feel it's a
wonderful idea; it's a major
step in accommodating the
visually impaired students.
This allows them to participate
in a segment of the academic
environment that was closed
off to them before." She said
she still is in awe about all the
technological changes that are
happening. "It's fun to watch

The feedback received about
the computer terminal has
been very similar said Perreira.
"The students have fear of it,
because it's not well known to
them. After exposing them to
it, the fear is overcome and
replaced with curiosity,"
Perreira said.
Besides the talking computer
in the Computer Center a
talking calculator has been
installed in the special services
office.

Richard Greer, a freshman

ac-

Sponsored by
the
Colleae Union Board and College Acd~tles,
It's upsetting to know that no
one really cared during the weeks
after the robbery took place.
There was no sympathy from the
administration; no one to offer
any solutions; not even a reporter
from the
Circle
to get our side of
the story, until this week, one and
one half months after the incident
occurred.
So, before monies are paid for
services rendered at Marist, think
about the services you won't'
receive, the run-around you will
get and the nonsense you will
have to put up with

to get things
done around here.
·
Let's hope that our loss will be
the next person's gain. We have
suffered a great hardship, and we

To the Editor:
We would like to take this op•

preciation to the library, its staff,
and its policies.
As an institution for "higher
learning", Maris! has once again
shown us where our priorities
should lie

(more beer and less

On Dec. 3 at precisely 4 p.m.,
we were shown the error of our

working obediently
on final papers, we were ever so
grateful that our trains of thought
were cut off by an eager staff
shutting off all the lights, direc-
ting us up the stairs, and all but
shoving us out the door.
We are happy to know that
posted hours mean nothing, and
with this in
mind we ask
ourselves, "What are policies
made for, if not to be broken'?"
It does not concern us that

Dear Editor:
The Gaelic Society, an Irish
cultural organization on campus
would like to notify the Marist
community of its current ac-
tivities.
A fundraiser for the Summer
Children's Program, which pro·
vides a summer of peace for a
child of Northern · Ireland, has
been organized by the club. We
are sponsoring a Give Up A Meal
program in cooperation with the
Seiler's food service. The meal to
be sacrificed is
lunch
on Wednes-
day, December 14. During this
week and early next week, the
club will be asking students to
give up that meal and provide
their meal ticket numbers. We ask
all people on the Meal Program to
consider participating.
Gaelic Society sweatshirts will
be available for $9.00. Please see
a member soon, if you are in-
terested in purchasing one.
As the charter of the club
testifies, "the objective of this
club shall be to promote Irish
culture among the members of the
Marist
community."
.All
members of the Marist communi-
·
ty are invited to participate.
Meetings are held. every other
Tuesday in the Campus Cemer.

To the Editor:
The satiric throwaway remark
about John Wetton a few issues
ago was a puerile cheap shot. Not
to debate the merits of Asia as a
serious group,
but Wetton's
vocals and, to a lesser extent, bass
were certainly relative highlights
of the band.
Greg Lake is no vast improve-
ment; he certainly can't match
Wetton's vocals. Ironically, Lake
was replaced by Wetton about ten
years ago in King Crimson.

The Alpha· Chi Honor Society
is not the most visible organiza-
tion on campus and, aside from
its 66 student members, very few
people even know it exists, accor-
ding to Kyle Miller, president of
·
the society. She would like th~t to
change.
·
At an Induction Banquet last
Friday evening, 49 new members
were inducted into the 188th
chapter of Alpha Chi.
·
"In the past, Alpha Chi has
done little in the way of making
its presence known oil campus,"
said Miller, a senior from Denver,
Col. "I feel that we have potential
with this group to become an ac-
tive student organization."
Alpha Chi, a national, general
scholarship honor society, has
tradi_tionally invited
·
·
as its;
members the top ranking ten per-:
cent of the junior and senior
classes.
Chapters of Alpha Chi at other
college campuses are very involv-
ed
with their student bodies, often
.
sponsoring academic activities,
such as lectures and symposiums,
or providing students services,
such as tutoring or counseling,
Miller said.
At the first organizational
meeting of the semester, Dr.
William Olson, faculty sponsor
for Alpha Chi,
·
expressed an in-
terest in taking on a more active
role for the college community.
He said however, that there were
difficulti
_
es in applying for funds
from the college because Alpha
Chi's membership is
only
representative of a fraction of the
student body.
In order for
a
club to receive
funding from the college it must
show that its membership is open
to the entire school, and Alpha
Chi's membership is considered
discriminatory in this respect,"
Miller said.
"Alpha Chi has never been ac-
tive in the past," said Betty
Yeaglin,director of College Ac-
tivities. However, depending on
what they do, they could become
eligible for funds, she said.
"We intend to submit a budget
request for next semester," Miller
said, "and we're hoping that by
sponsoring events and activities
which are operi to the whole cam-
pus we can then become eligible."
Since its installation at
Marist
in February 1979, Alpha Chi has
received no funding from the col-
lege, and has
.relied
solely on
membership fees for its funds.

ing,
but it's
·fairly
likely to hap-
pen," he said. "Ultimately,
SO·
meone will use them. We have lit-
tle control over those policies.''
Carolyn
c.
·
Landau, assistant
professor of political science, said
that the film generated a mixed
reaction from her students but
that they "generally agree it made
them more aware of the danger,"
she said.
She also said that the
film
made
a definite contribu(ion by provok•
ing debate in the country. "There
needs to be a raising of con-
sciousness, along with more com-
munication
.
and discussion, on
·
what mechanics can
.
be thought
up to minimize the danger of ac-
cidental nuclear incidents," she
said.
.
Barbara Hynes,

·
director of
nursing, said that· the film
·
did
spui con·versatipri/ but
·
that con-
versation
.
was already
·
generated
as a result of the demonstrations
in Europe over the recent deploy-
mer:t of missiles in West Ger-
many.
She also pointed out that last
year;
the American Nurses
Association went on record as be-
·
ing opposed to nuclear arms: She
said that the nurses' opposition is
based on two factors.
·
••First," she said, "nuclear war
·
is pr
_
eventable. The best protec-
tion we have against it is preven-
tion."
.
.
·.
"Secondly," she said, "the
money spent on nuclear arms
,
·
could be given to other budgets,
such as health care and human
services."
·
Additionally, Hynes said that
California state doctors
·
have
stated that minimal medical ser-
vices will be provided after the
fact. "-That attitude is spreading
·.
throughout the profession," she
said .
..
·
·
.

_
·
Hynes doesn't think that the
film will generate a major action
.
_
by the American people. She
.
.
referred to Nevil
_
Shute's 1957
publication,
-
"On The Beach,"
which also describes
a
_
nuclear
holocaust.
"if
that didn't do it, I
don't know what will,"
she
said.
·
The Marist students that were
interviewed basically expressed
-a
concern

over the
·
feeling of
frustration that the movie in-
stilled in it's audience.
Freshman Jeff Russitano, also
referred to Shute'
.
s "On The
Beach." He said that back then,
"People thought
.
that it wasn't
going to happen because there
weren't many nuclear arms. Well,
now there are and now it's a reali-
ty," he said.
He also said people don't think
about nuclear
-
war because it
scares_ them. "They keep it in the
·
back of their minds. The movie
made me think about what l
would do
if
it happens while I'm
here
.
I'd never see my parents
again," he said.
.
According to junior Deb Ryan,
further productions on nuclear
.
war would be a waste of time and
money. "They could make 10 it. "People want to forget about

As Columbia, Indiana, Connecticut and Virginia Universities
compete this w
_
eek for the national championship in Division On~
soccer, members of the Marist College soccer team are occupying
themselves with schoolwork and upcoming exams.
The 1983 season is a month old now. It will go down in the
books as a 9-7-2 finish. But for Head Coach
-
Dr. Howard
Goldman, this year was "one of the most memorable we've ever
had at Marist."
Considering the terrible start, when Marist was 1-5-1
·
after
seven games, the season does become noteworthy. The Foxes
finished with a seven-game unbeaten streak to rank tenth in New
York State in Division One soccer.
·
· The Tri-State Soccer Conference was won by Fordham
University, which was undefeated in eight conference· matches.
Marist
.
finished fifth, behind St. John's, St. Peter's and Pace
Universities, with a4-3-1 record.
The books will not show the turnaround Marist had. It will
show how Marist might have found a steady goalkeeper for the
next two years in sophomore Bill Tholen. Tholen firµshed second
_
in the conference with a .95 goals against average per game, and
was named to the Conference Second Team AU-Stars'. "Tholen,"
said Goldman, "is an excellent goalkeeper."
Joining
.
Tholen with award-winning performances were junior
.
Jim Bride and senior loe Vasile-Cozza. Both were nominated by
the coaches to the conference's First Team AU-Stars. Vasile-
Cozzo was also named the conference's best defensive back.
"Joe," Goldman said, "meant an awful lot in attitude and

intensity, and his desire made him an outstanding player."
_
Bride
·
was also voted to the.Second Team all New York State for his
season performance. "Jimmy was vastly deserving of his
nomination," said Goldman. "He has great skills."
·
Goldman did mention his disappointment
·
over the fact that
sophomore midfielder
Mike
Terwilliger was not named to the all-
star teams.
"Mike,"
said Goldman, "is as good as any mid-
fielder in the conference."
·
What's ahead for Goldman and his team? For the head coach,

a
trip ouno Las Vegas, Nev. for the Senior Bowl game where top
seniors in the country display their skills in front of many
professional scouts.
-
For the team, it will try to raise some money for a seven-day
trip to Bermuda in March to play against foreign competition.
Next semester will start the indoor season for the Foxes, but first
things first: recruiting.
·
What exactly do the Foxes need for another successful year in
.
1984?
·
.. A bAckup
-
goali~
for Tholen," said Goldman, "one or
two strong midfielders- to play alongside Terwilliger and
.
Peter
.
Nargi and a couple of defenders
.
to fill in, if.necessary,.for Fran
Payne and Andy Ross."
·
·
.
·
There were no most valuable players for Mar'ist this year. "I
don't believe in
MVP.s;''
said Goldman. "It's a team concept; if
you miss one of them, he's the
MVP.
They're all, to me,

Greatest show

Ladieeeees
and Gentlemen!
Children of all ages! Welcome,
one and all, to the greatest show
on campus! It's the men's basket-
ball team!
You'll see everything you've
come to expect from us, and
more! This year, we'
.
ve added
some things never
_before
seen
in this arena.
·
In the first ring, we've got the
players! (Wild applause.) These
fine athletes make up
.
a team that
just might be notably better than
last year's -
this in a season
·
when they wen: supposed to be
suffering from the loss of Steve
Smith.
See Steve Eggink! Back after a
year off due to
·
injury, Steve
scored 18 points against Notre
Dame's Irish! (Gasps
.
) See John
Donovan! After a promising but
unspectacular season in 1982, he's
sparkled on defense and has 11
blocked shots in two games!
(Cheers.)
See our boys in South Bend,
ready to take on those Fighting
Irish! Here come their vans on the
way back from practice
_
the night
before the game. They're stopp-
ing now ..
.'
maybe we'll see 30 or
40 of them file out, like all those
clowns that cram into the
Volkswagen at Ringling Brothers.
No. wait
_a
second... it's the
coach -
Ron Petro! (More ap-
plause.) He looks upset-. He's
walking away, into the Indiana
darkness. Will we see him again?
(Murmuring.)
Yes we will, because he's going
to get... GAS! (Sighs.) It seems
·
those two rented vans have run
out of juice. (Chuckles, except
from the vans.) But
.
wait
they've
rµn
out
almost
simultaneously,
ladies
and
gentlemen, within 50 yards of
each other! (Cheers for this
remarkable display of team uni-
ty.)
In the center ring, we have
basketball! Watch the team do an
outstanding job against the Irish.
See Digger Phelps call time out
with his team's lead at five points
and shrinking. Watch as what
could have been a mismatch turns
into an entertaining game.
l-,ook at
freshman Mark
Shamley score 12 points coming
off the bench! (More applause.)
See the men in red dive after those
loose balls, watch them go for the
blocked shots! Listen to a Notre
Dame fan say that, win or lose,
this Marist team is fun to watch!
And now, in the third ring,
something new!
(Rustling of
·
paper -
no, you won't find it in
your programs.) Up on the
tightrope, it's Ron Petro again!
What's he doing up there? He's
running the team, of course, and
he's beeri doing it for 18 years.
Look at him make his way across
that little wire! (Ooohs amd
Aaahs.)
He's riding a unicycle, ladies
and gentlemen! His team's just
put in a respectable
showing
against a major national team!
(Cheers.) That has never happen-
ed in our show before! Con-
gratulations seem to be in order.
(Accolades.)
There goes a clean-cut fellow
up the ladder now. Maybe he's
going to cheer our high wire artist
on. Hold on, now ... what's that
he's got slung over his shoulders'?
Happy
Holidays!
To make
·
your holiday vacation even
more enjoyable, The Business Office
wants to remind students to submit
your time sheets to the Financial Ajd
Office before you go home.
(If
requested, paychecks will be mailed home)
Why,
they're
WIRE CUTTERS!
(Gasps. Profanities.)
He's going to cut the wire!
(Shrieks.) Don't worry, Ron's got
a net -
it's his athletic director
position
;
and he's been perform-
ing over it for years now. Still
,
it
hardly seems fair to cut the wire
when Ron's doing the unicycle
bit. It's his best trick, and -
Ssshh! The wire cutter-toting
man speaks! What's that? You
say those aren't really wire cut-
ters, they're fingernail clippers?
Sure. You say Ron can't work
.
with a net anymore? You say he's
got to jump off or stay on that
tightrope without the trusty net?
It's his choice, you say? No, sir,
I'm sorry. I really don't see how
much happier he'll be tangled up
in the net.
WiU the wire get cut? Will Ron
be able to juggle while on the
unicycle and his team is playing
Jona and South Florida -
teams
that are even tougher than the
Irish? (Whispers.)
What of our famous tightrope
act? Who's going to take over the
spot? And what
will
become of
our team in its most competitive
schedule ever?
For these

answers and more,
