Marist College, Poughkeepsie, N. Y.
October 1, 1987
Stolen TV club equipment was never insured
By Shelly Miller
The
video
equipment, reported
stolen from the Marist College
Television Club on Sept.
5,
is not
listed on the college's insurance
policy, leaving MCTV responsible
for raising money to purchase new
equipment, according to Business
Offi~er Anthony Campilii.
Campilii said the Student Ac-
tivities Office never officially
notified him that the equipment,
worth $7 ,.500 ·, was purchased.
"I
have no proof that that we
even had the equipment," he said.
"The insurance company
isn't
go-
ing to cover something that wasn't
reported to them. Th~y're going to
ask us some very hard questions
and I don't have any answers to
give them."
According to the Office of Safe-
ty and Security incident report the
following equipment was reported
missing from the dub studio
located in the bottom floor of the
handicapped facility , between
Townhouses B-7 and C-1: three
portable and one editing VCR, one
television camera, one graphics
camera, one monetor-battery, five
portable VCR batteries and two
Facelift f_or · two buildings now
scheduled for summer of 1988
by
Rick Hankey
Major renovations to Cham-
pagnat Hall and Donnelly Hall will
begin next May, and plans to ex-
pand the Library are under con-
sideration, according to
Edward P.
Waters, vice president for
administration.
. ... A
new.exterior wall will be put
on Champagnat~ including new ..
panels and windows,
said
Watersi ·
On Donnelly, a curtain wall will be
put up around the outside, making
the exterior similar to that on
Champagnat.
. Renovations were to begin last
summer, but scheduling problems
forced the work to be postponed.
The curtain wall will surround
Donnelly's exterior including· the
walkway around the upper floor.
By
also reconstructing much of
· tbe inside of Donnelly, the college
will be able to add space and use
it more efficiently, according to·
Waters.
Estimated cost for the renova-
tion of Donnelly is $700,000, .said
Waters. $500,000 of the cost will be
paid f9r by a grant from the U.S.
Department of Education.-

.Champagnat's renovation,~will-
cost·approximately $500,000, and
the school will receive a $300,000

tion Department, said Waters.
Bidding for the construction
should be completed by Nov.

with construciion due to begin on
May 16, 1988, and end by Aug.
15,
1988, according to Waters.

.The

Library was criticized for
tbe small size of its collection in a

evaluation by The Middle
States Association of Colleges
and
Universities. It has since increased
the number of volumes significant-
ly, but the problem of space has
not yet been solved, according to
Atkins.

Waters estimated the cost of the·
project at $2,000 to $3,000.

Atkins denied rumors that the
Library would be expanding into
the Fontaine building.
"The problem is space," said
Atkins. · "The whole campus is
pressed for space, and with

faculty in Fontaine it's really
un-
thinkable to extend the Library in
there."

'Hello, my name's George Bush ... really'
By
Lauren Arthur
When George Bush was called in
for treatment over the public ad-
dress system at Vassar Brothers
Hospital, many of the people at-
tempting to catch a glimpse of the
vice president may have walked
away a little disappointed.
Not because he didn't sign
autographs, not because there
wasn't an entourage, but because
the George Bush they saw was not
from Washington, D.C. He lives in
Poughkeepsie.
Bush, like Tom Petty, John Ken-
nedy and other Poughkeepsie area
residents with famous names, finds
that sharing an identity can be a
source of confusion and irritation
-
as well as a few good laughs.
- Although things have calmed
down
a
bit since election time, Bush
admitted he used to be
razzed
quite
often,
in
a good natured way.·
"My friends used to ltjd me and
say, here comes the veep," said
Bush.
What's it like going through life
with the name Tom Petty? "Why
don't you ask
him?"
said Tom Pet-
. ty, a resident of Wappingers Falls
and no relation to the rock star.
The local Petty insists he
was
the
first. "I'm considering suing him
for name rights," he joked.
Petty, related to the race car
driver Richard Petty, said the
original Pettys are from Vermont
and the Carolinas. "I've seen Tom
Petty, I like Tom Petty, but he
doesn't fit the Petty line," .said
Petty.
Just over· the New York state
border, Michael Jackson deals with
the normal frustration of college
pressures -
plus some. -
Jackson, a 20-year-old Bergen
Community College student, com-
. plains especially about the frrst roll
· call of a new semester.
"I
hate go-
ing to the first day of classes
because everyone gawks at me,"
said Jackson.
Jackson,
a
blond-haired,. blue-
eyed resident of Garfield, N.J.,
finds having the same name as the
famed music star
can
be
both a
• headache and a help.
Whether he's writing out a check
or
being
introduced
to
someone, he
usually gets a comment or two. "It
draws a lot of attention and can be
a
good pick-up line," said Jackson.
"A lot of times
I
have to show
peo-
ple my driver's license to make
them believe me."
But Jackson has also been ag-
grevated at times. After filling out
a job application for a department
store, the receptionist glanced at it,
handed it back and said, "Come
back when you're serious."
"I
was so mad,
I
just left," he
said.
Thirty-year-old James Dean of
Highland says he's been getting
strange looks from people all his
life.

Dean
sometimes finds when he
is in bars introducing hiinself to
women, they think the name is part
of a come-on. But,
Dean
says, "I
don't give it a second thought
anymore."
Still,
Dean
recalls the time he
had to appear as a litigant in a
Texas court. The name of the other
party
in the suit? Hank Williams -
same as the famous country singer;
"There were some chuckles in the
courtroom," Dean admitted.
Although
65-year-old
Poughkeepsie resident John Ken-
nedy doesn't hear much about hav-
ing
a
former president's name, his
dad had quite a different
experience.
When President Kennedy was
running for office, Kennedy's
father (also John) lived in the same
town, Hyannis, Mass. "People

Board on Sept. 23. who said they
could only give the club $1,500 to
cover the loss.
"That amount of money will
barely get us off the ground," Lez-
ny said. "I can't believe that after
all we've done for the college this
is the treatment we're getting. I
understand that it's a lot of money
but I'm sure there's a way they can
get it."
Campilii said MCTV
will
have to
raise the remaining money
themselves.
"The· insurance company cer-
tainly isn't going to give it to us,"
he said. "And the Business Office
doesn't have it."
He objected to the place the
equipment was stored saying tha~
it shouldn't have been left unsuper-
vised over the summer.
"There's a sense of frustration
that
I
have because the equipment
just wasn't stored properly," he
said.
"It
should have been put
under lock and key with an ad-
ministrative office."
Lezny said the equipment has
been stored there since spring

and has never been "tampered with.

At approximately
2
a.m. Sun-
day, the two visitors, carrying five
unopened bottles of champagne,
were escorted off the campus by
security officials after they were
reported to be causing a distur-
bance near the Gartland Commons
apartments.
Nearly two hours later, one of
the visitors reportedly returned and ·
smashed the windshield of a·blue
BuicJc belonging to a Marist stu-
dent, and security officials called
the Town of Poughkeepsie police.
A Town of Poughkeepsie police
spokesman said the case was turn-
ed over to the Conrail .police
department.
The
1976
incident, however, had
a different twist.
Several Marist students were ar-
rested following that incident,
although the alumnus, who asked
not to be identified, could not
remember the number of arrests.
Initially, on a Thursday after-
noon in February or March, only
a few people were seen bringing
cases
of beer up to the dorms.
But by the end of the weekend,
many more students had joined in
the - effort -
nearly forming a
bucket brigade from the train car
to the dorms.
"School · spirit reached an all
time high," said the alumnus.
Picture it: Nearly every closet in
the dorms was filled with cases of
beer, according to the alumnus. No
one attempted to make a profit on
their share of tire beer.
"Bar business was down
significantly that weekend," he
said.
By Sunday night, however, the
festivities were over.
As if a scene in a movie, police
cars -
assisted by a helicopter -
poured onto the scene and halted
the increasing flow of traffic to the
train car by arresting the students
at the site.
Then, Marist security drove
through the campus with· a
maintenance truck and used a
megaphone to attempt to convince
dorm students that surrendering
the beer might mean lesser penalties
for the arrested students.
Perhaps it would have been
easier to convince a chain smoker
to give up his cigarettes.
Only
a few cases of beer were
recovered, the alumnus said.
Brother Joseph Belanger, pro-
fessor of French, remembered it
well.
. "Of all the nice things to happen
to college students would be to
have a train full of
beer
parked
ri~t outside their dorm," he said.

iron out wrinkles
by Rieb DonneUy
Just nine days into the semester
M.~~t•s new Chairperson of th;
D1vmon of
Arts &
Letters had a
problem on his hands.
All
faculty and students were
barr~ from entering the Lowell
Thomas Communications Center.
The ce.nte!"J>iece of the college's
co~umcation
arts
and computer
science departments -
which
opened for use just this year - had
sprung a leak.
_,
·
W~ter was found dripping into
electrical boxes on the morning of
Sept.
18,
and the building was
evacuated ·and kept empty until
around
4
p.m.
.
·
"Like with any new venture or
building, there's a breaking~in
pe.rio~," J~ptha Lanning, Ph.D.,
said. Dunng a breaking-in period
there are bugs and wrinkles that
have to be worked out."
"We're going through that right
now. The faculty and students were
sympathetic."
Faculty and students are Lann-
ing's main concern. This semester
Lanning replaces Robert Sadowsky
who is now Chairperson of Com-
muniq1tions at University of Scran-
ton, Scranton, Pa.
As
chairperson, Lanning is head
of the division that involves slight-
ly more than one-sixth of the stu-
dent population and the faculty
that educates them.
This is not entirely new for Lan-
ning, 56, a Marist alumni who
became a professor
.
at the school in
1964.
·He
has chaired the depart-
ments of English
(1971-77)
and
communication
arts
(1973-77).
A
curriculum
review
is
one of the
first
·
things that
·
must
be
ac-
complished, according to Lanning.
This
is
no small task as the division
covers the departments of English,
foreign languages, communication
arts, fine arts, fashion
.
design and
music.
"In the division majors, we'll
be
doing assessments of various
academic programs.· .. to get a good
picture of where we are," said
Lan-
ning,
"and
to get an idea of the
needs that students have and the
amount of faculty needed to service
these
needs."
Having the division's various
departments working harmonio
_
us-
ly is another of Lanning's primary
objectives.
"I would like to see closer inter-
disiplinary work within the divi-
sion," he said; "Sucha
as with the
arts -
fine and performing work-
ing closer together.
"And closer cooperation with
communications and computer
science,
together exploring
telecommunications."
.
·
There has been a recent surge of
students interested in many of the
division's majors and Lanning said
that hiring faculty to accommodate
these needs is high on his list of
priorities.
·
"We hope to adcf to the Lowell
Thomas Communications Center
both personnel and additional
equipment especially in com-

munication arts," said Lanning.
"it's become a quality program and
we must have the faculty and per-
sonnel to give our students the best
possible education. Now that we
have the center, we should fully
take advantage of the facility we
have."
Originally from Brooklyn, Lan_-
ning was graduated from St. Agnes
High School in New York, and it
was there he became associated
degree fr?m St. John's University,
Queens,
m 1960,
and earned his
doctorate from Catholic Universi-
ty of ·America in Washington
D.C., in
1972.

By Joseph O'Brien
"Worldwright,"
a
new
book
written
by three Marist professors
to increase students' global
awareness, is making its debut in
the
classroom
this semester.
The book, which was compiled
and edited by Brother Joseph
Belanger, professor of French,
Janice Casey and Donald Ander-
son, both assistant professors of
English, is being used in
12
of the
35
sections of the college writing
classes.
.
The textbook
is
almost 900 pages
and contains essays on controver-
sial issues of both domestic and
world importance. It is part of a
"global education" program at
Marist.
The book has cost Marist
$45,000
to produce, however,
·
Belanger said the school should
recoup ar least
$10,000
in sales to
students.
"There is no more isolatfon·
every decision that the U.S. or an;
other major power makes has ma-
jor effects
·
on the rest of the
world," Belanger said. "The
readings deal with many controver-
sial issues that have not been dealt
with in a single text before."
According to Belanger, many of
the teachers involved in the pro-
gram are pleased with the book.
"Eight of the nine teachers us-
ing the text have said this fall has
been one of the most exciting starts
of the college writing course,"
Belanger said.

Seventy-nine North Road has a
new name these days ~-
and a
new
owner.
The house, whose current
residents found it appropriate to
name "The Asylum," was one of
the two houses on North Road that
was privately owned.
It was sold last summer and is
now housing Marist students, but
Marist doesn't own it. The father
of one of the residents does.

Joe Deluca, a junior from Staten
Island, N.

"We felt like refugees
living on campus. We can live a
normal life here."
The senior Valentino decided to
buy the house after his son and the

"There is an inextricable link

Mari st East:
No solution
-
They haven't been printing "Golden Books" in the old
Western Publishing building for years now -
but the fairytale
goes on.
When space in the factory building we now call Marist East
was first rented by the college in 1984, it was excused as a tem-
porary solution to overcrowding problems on the main campus.
There simply were not enough classrooms to accommodate
the growing number of students at the college, and the college
was directing all its efforts into getting the Lowell Thomas
Center building project underway. There would be time to con-
sider classroom space later
.
..
Nearly four years later, Marist East has grown to become
the main classroom building at Marist College. Renovations
and ~xpansion to the rented warehouse space has resulted in
well over half of all classes being held there. And there seems
to be no end in sight.
'
And while the commitment to the building remains on a tem-
porary basis -
the college still rents but has not decided to
buy -
the pressure to build a classroom building on campus
has lessened.
While the college considers building a campus shopping
center or a new library building, the problem of solving the
need for classroom space is overlooked. Th.e "temporary" solu-
tion is gaining permanence.

Last July, President Reagan
nominated Robert H. Bork to fill
the seat vacated by Justice F.

Bork's political philosophy. Judge
Bork was appointed to the Federal

years ago by President Reagan.
Since
his
nomination Judge Bork
has become a household name. The
confirmation hearings began on
Sept. 15, 1987 and have been

Ethnocentrism
To the Editor:
Mr. Reardon suggests that one
of the occasions that can make life
difficult is, " ... sitting next to a
sweaty Meditteranean man in one
of the Donnelly lecture rooms."
(Cheap Leisure Suit, September
24). However, what makes life dif-
ficult and very painful - especial-
ly
,
for persons not of Northern
European ancestry
is the en-
durance of ethnocentric remarks as
exhibited in Mr. Reardon's col-
umn. Such ethnocentrism must be
severely critiqued, particularly at a
liberal

college whose common
task
is

ty of kno'iJedge and liberation.

Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. is
chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee and Bork's chief oppo-

ings Senator Biden stated that be
wanted "to keep the Supreme
Court from moving in a direction

·
Bork supporters are led by
Republication presidential hopeful
and Senate Minority Leader Robert
Dole. Dole and other Conservatives
believe that Bork's credentials
should be the main focus and not
his
political beliefs. They
claim
that
Bork
will
not smuggle his ideology
into the Supreme Court.
Judge Bork spent IS years as a
professor at Yale Law School.
Dur-
ing his tenure, Bork spent much of

speeches concerning constitutional
law; He often found himself on the
academic periphery because of his
strong belief in original intent.
In 1965, the courts declared a
constitutional right to privacy when
it overturned
.
a Connecticut law
which outlawed birth control. Bork
criticized this decision by referring
to
,
it as "a nutty law." He stated
that the legislature is free to restrict
anything that is not explicitly men-
tioned in the constitution, such as
sexual privacy.
Clearly, Judge Bork sees nothing
of value in the Ninth Amendment
to
the Constitution: "The
enumeration in the Constitution of
certain rights shall not be be con-
strued to deny or disparage others
retained by tne people," he said.
The Ninth Amendment was in-
,
eluded in the constitution to avoid
ideas of origi,..nal intent. The foun-
ding fathers knew that they might
have overlooked certain things.
Hence, they provided for constitu-
tional interpretation.
Judge
.
.
Bork's
·

should not be ignored.
He
has
the following beliefs:
-"Roe V.
Wade (the landmark
abortion decision) is itself an un-
constitutional
.
decision,a serious
and wholly unjustifiable usurpa-
tion of state legislative authority."
• The First Amendment protects
mainstream political speech but
does not
extend
to
subversive or
obscene pr~tests.
-The law limiting Federal campaign
spending is unconstitutional.
-The rule of one man one vote in
the state legislative apportionment
was devoid of "respectable" sup-
porting argument.
.
-
-Supreme Court decisions are
"rigidly secularist."
-Women are not protected
·
against
discrimination under the provisions
of the 14th Amendment. The use
of this amendment to create special
rights for women and illegitimate
children shows that the Supreme
Court is moving towards the "gen-
trification of the constitution."
Bork opponents claim that a
Judge can never be truly objective.
,
Hence, his writings and rhetoric
will tie into any decision he makes.
Bork opponents, raise questions
concerning his views on the rights
of women and the right to privacy.
Liberal pressure groups such as
the AFL-CIO, the American Civil
Libe~ies Union, the National
Organization for Women and the
'
National Abortion Rights Action
League are opposing the Bork
nomination. The NAACP has join-
,
ed

People for the American Way
in compiling a report on Bork's
opinions
on
civil

The issue at band is whether the
senate
will
vote
in
favor of Judge
Bork's
credentials or his political
philosophy.

Irrespective
of his

Embarking on the ship for the
new world, they have to leave
behind not only family and (riends,
but also old habits and customs.
Equipped with little knowledge of
English and high hopes for success,
they have to navigate for the next
fout to five years between Scylla
and Charybdis in a new world,
never losing the starting point on
their compasses.
But if it is so painful, why are
they takjng these long voyages?
Since I
984, Marist College has
been participating-in the recruiting
race to land good college prospects
who
can
help develop the basket-
ball program. Right now, it looks
·
as if Marist is a big winner, not on-
ly by the size of the players, but
•
also by the numbers: five in all.
The five who made the long
voyage from their won countries
are: Rik Smits, from Holland;
Rudy
.
Bourgarel,
from
Guadeloupe; Miro Pecarski, from
Yugoslavia; Peter Krasovec, from
Hungary; and Alain Forestier,
from France.
Basketball has become an impor-
tant way· to succeed for players
from other countries. By signing
their first contracts, foreign players

ington, Detlef Schrempf and Uwe

Blab opened a new page in the
history of college and professional
basketball. The others will come
after them.
When they arrive here, the young
men from strange lands see the ob-
vious right away. The streets are
not paved with gold. They are ~ore
dangerous than ever. Drugs, cnme
and today's diseases are prevalent.
However, America remains on
the map of all modern con-
quistadors. America is a must road
to success. The American green
dream is stronger than ever.
The common interest of all
foreign students who come to this
country is to get the American
diplomas which are in high de-
mand. This would increase their
chances of achieving financial
stability or furthering themselves in
their chosen fields.
Some of the students want more
than an education. They are look-
ing for glory through sports. Many
of us are affected by sports. Some
play, some watch and yet others
make a business out of the games.
Thanks to the strong participa-
tion of students at the college level,
America has developed the best
sports system in the world.
The American
.
educational
system . allow
.
s students the
possibility to successfully combine
studies and sports. In most coun-
tries overseas, after high school,
students must make
a
decision bet-
ween academic life and a sports
career. Through the club system, it
is either one or the other.
A com-
bination of both is almost
impossible.
,
There is no campus life.
If
a
young man chooses the club com-
petition, sports monopolizes his
time and an education is forfeited.
If
he decides on an
·
education,
·
sports are pushed into the
background and become only a
hobby. That is why for those who
are
talented both academically and
atheletically, America is a dream
land.
.
Our five young talents· had to
awaken form the very beginning
and
·
work hard. Each had a dif-
ferent way of life, different.educa-
tion, different socio-cultural,
political and basketbalt back-
ground. Today. they are similar in
that they
all
have the same purpose
·
-
to be sucessful in this new
country.
Marist provides them with an ex-
cellent environment
·
and working
atmosphere to achieve their goals.
Before they graduate and disperse
in America's melting pot or return
to their countries, t'1ey have
another mission: to be the am-
bassasadors of their countries and
cultures and to convey to
Americans often unknown customs
and friendships from the other side
of the world.
Along with the nearly 100 other
foreign students at Marist, they
learn and exchange knowle.dge and
friendship. Sometimes they are
nostalgic and homesick, but ~th
every passing day, they talk hke,
act like and look like the other
young
people.
No matter what avenue these
young men choose to P"!1rsue,"~he
education they will receive eqmps
them for the most important game
of all -
life.

and content with ourselves. We.are
constantly changing and trying to
find out what we really wantfrom
life. There are so many frustrated
and bored people out there. If"we
only took the time to ask, what do
I really want?
The Science of Humanity pro-
gram shows that there are no
limits
to what we
can
learn or do or
achieve. With enough time and ef-
fort, we can learn anything.
Nothing is beyond our grasp if we
just give enough of ourselves.
Marist students frequently com-
plain about boring
classes
and Core
classes they "have" to take that
they are never going to use.
Everything a person learns, adds to
understanding of the world.
Everything that was ever designed
was aimed at making our lives as
human beings easier or more
understandable.
.
The Science of Humanity pro-
gram teaches the essence of a
liberal arts education. Everything
in life is related. What scientists did
400
years ago is important because
they had a direct effect on what's
going on in our life today. Without
statistics or economics, where

would we
be
today?
Art courses are
important, religion courses are im-
portant, etc., etc.
The whole idea
of the program
was to take the
Marist student
away from shal-
low material exis-
tence ...
We all have a desire to learn
more about the world in which we
live. Why ... because we are all
egomaniacs. We want to unders-
tand ourselves better, and by gain-
ing more knowledge, we can come
to know our true selves. Don't shut
out the world. Don't think you
know everything. Learn .. .learn.
The Science of Humanity pro-
gram delved into the question,
"What does it mean to be
human?" from several perspectives
-
philosophically, religious-
ly,scientifically and socially. The
course was eye-opening and mind-
boggling, but always intriguing and
·
personal.
The Science of Humanity pro-
gram should have been made a re-
.
quirement for all students to take,
not dropped from the curriculum.
It
was designed to inspire students,
to get them to ask questions for
themselves,
not to
accept
everything blindly.
I
have not had
one boring subject to study since
taking these courses because
I
now
realize how much
I have yet to
learn.
Marist College ..
.I thought you
wanted non-apathetic students.

a program that helps them grow
spiritually and academicalJy.
Marist College ... you have taken
the quality out of your liberal arts
curriculum ... the only course that
taught students not to learn, but
why they need to.

Kennedy's father got so mad that
he sent his famous namesake a let-
ter and told him to get a phone and
a
secretary because he was losing
a
lot of votes.
People with famous names also
have
to deal with the disappoint-
ment of would-be fans. About a
week ago, someone called Richard
Dawson of Pleasant Valley and
asked him 'Yhether he was the real
one.
"I

and
they hung up."
Dawson,
42,
has been running
into similar situations since TV
shows "Hogan's Heroes" and
"Family Feud" first became
popular.
Once when purchasing skis, he
was offered a
15 percent discount
on the store's merchandise in ex-
change for the right to use his name
in a sales promotion.
"Of course
I took it," said
Dawson. As long as something is
legal, he said, he has no qualms
about
using his name.
Like his namesake, he's been
asked for kisses from women and
told "no
kisses
please" by men, but
basically he doesn't mind sharing
the name. "Besides," said
Dawson, "I'm better looking."

has been obvious. But despite the
size of the intramural program and
his added responsibilities in the
College Activities Office, he isn't
too busy for intramurals.
"The program means a lot to
me," Lynch said. "It's become
part of my position here."
In addition to seeing the pro-
gram grow, Lynch has solved some
of its problems. Old equipment is
being replaced, he said, and the
athletic fields behind the Gartland
Commons apartment complex will
enable the leagues to run more
smoothly.

Confessions of a
Pop Tart

Maril/ion to take a Chance

My life began flowing down the
tubes in 1985. The signs, as always,
were there, but I failed to see them.

passionate about. Marillion will ap-
pear at The Chance tomorrow at 8
p.m.
"Clutching at Straws," the
band's latest vinyl offering, is
nothing short of a masterpiece. It's
a natural progression from l985's
brilliant "Misplaced Childhood."
"Straws" is a combination of
the connected musical passages that·
made up "Childhood" and in-
dividual pieces that characterized
their two previous albums, 1983's
"Script For a Jester's Tear" and
the following year's "Fugazi."
Unlike the concept album
"Misplaced
Childhood,"
"Straws" involves 11 individual
thoughts on a recurring theme.
Human vice and the desperation
that accompanies it undergo detail-
voice has never been considered
sensational, but yet it's perfect
within the band's structure. It's
dynamic and emotioanal.
His stage presence transforms
Marillion's set into a drama -
a
multi-act play. Fish, the actor and
singer, can thrill you. He can also
make you cry.
"Clutching At Straws," written
mostly on tour buses and in hotels
on the band's tour in support of
"Misplaced Childhood," allows us
even further into the enigma that
is Fish than any of the band's
previous efforts.
The album's opener, "Hotel
Hobbies," paves the way for 45
minutes of tales of self-destruction
and struggles for self-preservation.
Fish tells us here about "warm, wet
circles," which are, in this paticular
song, those watery circles left on
the bar by martini glasses. To say
the least, the man is a keen
observer.
"Just For The Record," written
at London's Marquee Club, pro-
vides further insight into the dilem-
ma of man and his vices. It's a song
that deals with man's real problem
of addiction -
and his unwill-
ingness to admit to it. "Just for the
record," sings Fish,
"l
can stop
any day."
But here, "Straws" throws us
a
curveball. "White Russians" deals
with society's complacency to "sit
in a bar, sipping iced white
rus-
sians" while leaders like Kurt
Waldheim are coming to power.
Fish realizes our tendency to sit
back amongst our passions and
tolerate injustice. He's seen a lot of
this world and he's scared.
"Where do we go from here?",
Fish asks, knowing that we don't
have any answers.
Also worthy of particular atten-
tion is "Torch Song." Written on
a Virgin Airways 747 en route from
New York to Heathrow Airport,
this song seems to be Fish's resigna-
tion to a life of broken hearts and
hangovers -
a surrender if you
will.

1984's obvious giants such as "In-
diana Jones" and "Ghostbusters,"
1987 allowed many pictures to
share the limelight. There were no
huge successes except for, perhaps,
"Beverly Hills Cop 2" and "The
Untouchables."
' Among the past summer's
numerous films were some gems
worth noting. While film reviewers
may never exactly duplicate the
the "buddy cop movies of the
1980's." In the vein of "48 Hrs."
and "Running Scared," this
Richard Dreyfuss-Emilio Estevez
outing from Touchstone Pictures
combines action and suspense,
lighthearted comedy and instant
chemistry from the leads.
Dreyfuss and Estevez, who is
sporting a mustache that is suppos-
ed to make him look older, are two
detectives on an assignment as a
favor to the FBI. They are staking
out the girlfriend of an escaped
convict but are instructed to
observe and not act.
While
posing as a phone com-
. pany worker to install a 'bug,'
Dreyfuss falls for the girl and
begins a relationship, thereby risk-
ing his job and the investigation.
Director John Badham of
"Wargames" and "Short Circuit"
fame delivers chase scenes and con-
vict Aidan Quinn's escape that are
gripping, while the predicaments
Dreyfuss gets himself into are big
audience pJeasers without getting
too silly.
Accepting Estevez as a husband,
father and "the youngest detective
on the force" is a bit far-fetched
while Dreyfuss is mature and adept
in his role.

Marist, Army sign pact
to expand ROTC's role
Lynch hangs boredom
as intramurals- grow
By Ken Foye
By Maureen McGuinness
The Marist College Army ROTC
program received extension center
status this summer, allowing full-
time Army personnel to be assign-
ed to Marist.
·
The Marist ROTC -
Reserve
Officers' Training Corps -
previously was assigned officers
from the ROTC branch at For-
dham
University in New York City.
President Dennis
.
Murray and
Maj. Gen. Robert Wagner of Ft.
Monroe, Va., signed a contract this
summer, and a ceremony to for-
mally grant the new status will be
held at 2:30 p.m. Oct.
16
in the
Theater.
There are 35 students enrolled in
ROTC at Marist, including
18
Marist students. Seven ROTC
cadets at Marist have been award-
ed Army ROTC scholarships.
Since Marist is the only school
between New York and Albany to
have an ROTC program, many
students cross-enroll from Vassar,
Dutchess Community College,
SUNY New Paltz, Mount
St. Mary
and Orange Community College.
The local unit -
kno~n as the
·
Marist Company- began in
1982
after a lengthy controversy and
protests from some students and
faculty who opposed the military's
presence on campus.

Marist's talent, wit
By Kristine Manning
There were no Levis or T-shirts
in the campus Theater last Tues-
day. There weren't many people
either. There was only a small
group of impeccably dressed Marist
students, all members of the Marist
debate team.
"Ooh, don't you look very
nice," said one student to another.
"Thank you, people hardly even
recognize me," she returned.
For members of the debate team,
the clothes told the story that night:
This was no ordinary evening. The
British were coming - the British
National Debate team, that is
~
and members of the Marist team
·
were the first' to arrive in the
Theater, nearly 30 minutes before
two of their teammates would
square off against Britain's two
best debaters.
Everywhere were students in
suits and dresses. But clothes
weren't all they wore. Written on
their faces was a feeling of anxiety.
Heads turned every time the
Theater door opened. Eyes were
glued to watches as the hands tick~
ed toward 7:30.
Slowly the Theater began to fill.
In between the cuts, both sides
presented their arguments.
Marist took the affirmative,
stating that the generation that
once stood up for all they believed
are now taking their seats. The hip-
pies of yesteryear are the yuppies
of today, they claimed.
They argued that money has
become a priority in today's lives,
replacing those of love and
freedom in the past.
"We were brought up to make
money in order to
be
happy. What
kind of example is that for
,
u
_
s'?"
said Buckley.
But there was no winner or loser
in the end. Nor were there any hard
feelings. The jokes were forgotten,
but the smiles remained.
and supported by the Marist com-
munity, according to Maj. Phil
Zedonek, assistant professor of
military science.
.
"They have made us feel a part
of Marist," Zedonek said. "Our
goal
is
to become a part of the fiber
of Marist College both profes-
sionally and on a personal basis."
Cadet Commander Paul Conte,
a Marist senior, said he has felt
support on campus for the ROTC
branch.
"When I
am
dressed people say,
'Oh, you're in the Army'," Conte
said. "On this campus it's easier
to
talk to people when you are dress-
ed as a civilian."
ROTC is
a
pre-commissioning
program offered at colleges
and
universities throughout the country
to prepare students for careers in
the Army.
According to Zedonek, the rela-
tionship between the Army and
col-
leges is important because 70 per-
cent of the Army's officers come
from ROTC programs.
For Bob Lynch, the enemy is boredom.
"If
you have nothing to do, you stagnate," says Lynch. "That's
not what college is all about."
-
.
Even though Lynch has become the assistant director of college ac-
tivities this year, he continues
to serve as assistant to Michael Malet,
director of intramurals. And having planned 20 intramural activities
this semester, Lynch is doing his part to save students from boredom.
They've responded in droves.
There are currently
15
flag football teams, five coed soccer teams,
23
bowling teams and
26
coed volleyball teams, according to Lynch.
He also said that he had to take on more students than he originally
planned for intramural aerobics because of a large student response.
Lynch expects student participation to be equally impressive for
upcoming activities such as one-on-one basketball, three-on-three
basketball and ultimate Frisbee this semester.
Next semester's planned sports include five-on-five basketball, soft-
ball, team handball, inner tube races, tennis
and
women's field hockey.
There is also an awards dinner scheduled for May.
"The operation is getting really phenomenal," he said. "The
.
students are important to me in that they get a sense of pride in the
program."
Lynch said he feels the program lets students do more than just
compete against each oth~r. "It's an alternative way to keep physically
fit and you can meet people too," he said. "There's an intermingling
of freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors - and that's the way
it should be."

An impatient buzz grew from the
crowd of 325 students; parents and
faculty.
Then they arrived.
She was wearing a blue taffeta

, and he was in a dark gray
suit. As they appro~ehed the stage
the crowd became silent.
They were Kate Dancy and Giles
Ramsay, the British debate team.
They were there to debate Marist
sophomore Michael Buckley and
senior Dennis Creagh. It was the
third annual appearance of Bri-
tain's top debaters at Marist.
·
Debate regulars remembered well
the standard British style: cutting
remarks and quick wit com~ined
with a seemingly endless supply of
odd facts.
TRIM IT.
GYM IT.
Al/at the YMCA!
This year's resolution
was:
The
generation that raised us failed us.
Buckley walked toward the
lectern to begin the affirmative
argument.
"How about a chair," said
Ramsay as he poked fun at
Buckley's small stature. "I'll even
help you up."
The crowd roared with laughter.
The tone was set for the hour-long
debate.
Buckley's height was not the on-
ly subject of abuse. The Royal
Family, the Reagans, the Marist
basketball team, the Lowell
Thomas Communications Center
and even Professor James
Springston, the debate coach, were
all targets.
Walking by the Theater passers-
by would think a comedy show was
taking place.
"The sun never sets on the
British Crown," said Marist'$
Den-
nis Creagh. "God doesn't trust
them in the dark."

Hamilton had suspended the

students who, in the series of racial

American campuses last fall, had
sat in at a campus building
to
try
to get college President J. Martin
Carovano to talk to them about
black students'___ complaints.
The appeals court decision,
Carovano said Sept. 11, would give
colleges "less discretion" in
disciplining students.
The court, which voted 2-1 in
favor of the students, said
Hamilton's disciplinary policy -
written specifically to comply with
a
1969 New York State law -
violated the students' constitutional
rights to due process.
The court said in Albert v.
Carovano that "there
is
little doubt
that Hamilton would ever have
adopted the new regulations and
the policy reflected therein had it

of the 11 best books of 1985.
The f'rrst book, "Paper Walls:
America and the Refugee Crisis,
1938~ 1941," details the refusal and
failure of American bureaucrats to
rescue thousands of Jews from
Europe before German
armies
overan the continent, according to
book reviews by A.J. Sherman in
the Dec.
16
issue of the New York
Times.
.
"Paper
Walls"
cites
anti-Semitic
attitudes and fears of relocating
Jews in America as reasons why
American political and non-
political leaders ignored the pro-
bl~ of Jewish refugees, wro
_
te
Sherman.
Wyman's second
.
book, "The
Abandonment of the Jews:
America
and
the Holocaust,
1941-1945," contains a more in-
depth study of the continuation of
policies and attitudes towards the
Jews into the war years, explained
Sherman.
As the allied armies closed in on
Nazi satellite countries, the rescue
efforts to save Jews were describ-
ed
,
as always being to little and to
late, wrote Sherman. "The swift,
decisive foray by American tanks
that successfulJy rescued the fam-
ed Lippizaner horses behind Ger-
man lines in Czechoslovakia was
never attempted on behalf of the
Jews."
Wyman, a special advisor to the
United States Holocaust Memorial
Council, has served
as
the chair-
man of the Judaic Studies pro-
gramat U Mass, is the grandson of
two Protestant ministers. "I grew
up with the church and its
teachings," said Wyman. "I
struggled with the subject of
writing about the Holocaust.
The case, said the students' at-
torney, Michael Krinsky, could be
used
as
a precedent in other states
if
there's evidence of "state in-
fluence or coercion on how to han-
dle student protests."
"We successfully argued that the
Constitution's due process clause
gives the students the right to
a
hearing" before they are punished,
Krinsky said.
Because they are state agencies,
public schools have long been re-
quired to grant hearings in
disciplinary matters. The Hamilton
case, Krinsky said, established that
right for private college students if
their schools have links to the state.
"In a broader sense, colleges
must be tn,ily independent of the
state if they want to avoid exten-
ding . constitutional privileges,''
Krinsky said.
.
The court, according to
Krinsky,
also ruled the school violated
federal civil rights laws by singling
out black students -
and white
students active in civil rights issues
-
for "undue punishment."
"I
consider the Court of Appeals
decision
a
significant step forward
in having Hamilton College deal
with studentprotests in a fair and
responsible fashion and also in hav-
ing Hamilton pay attention to the
serious racial situation on cam-
pus," Krinsky said.
Students lose GSLs
because of new law
by
Mike O'Keeffe
(CPS) -
As the summer rolled
on, Terilynn Sanford began to
panic. When the University of
Texas junior didn't receive a letter
confmning her Guaranteed Student
Loan
.
(GSL), as she had the
previous
2
years, she called the
fmancial aid office. This year, they
told her, she
·
didn't qualify.
.
"I
can't go to school
_
without a
student loan," she said.
After
some
frustrating
manuevering, Sanford finally was
·
approved for a GSL, and
will
con-
tinue her education this year.
Sanford is not the only student
finding that getting a loan this year
-
is
-
much harder than last
fall,
observers around the country
reported last week.
To determine if a student could
get
a
GSL in the past, financial
.
aid
counselors figured in the student's
and parents' income, the number
of dependents in the student's
family, and the number of children
in that family that were in college.
Now the new Higher Education
Act requires the counselor to in-
clude other money -
like home
values and investments -
in
deciding if the student needs a
GSL.
As a result of adding in
.
the
"other sources of income" to a
family's wealth, many families
look like they earn too much to
qualify for the low-cost loans.
"We've had more denials as
GSL eligibility has gotten tighter,"
said Don Davis of Texas' financial
aid office.
.
The Higher Education Act of
1986
also raised the maximum an-
·
nual GSL from $2,500 to $4,000 .

Student Loans that come with
higher interest rates and begin ac-
cruing interest soon after they're
issued, compounding the rising cost
of college education.
"This is going to be a tough year
for a lot of students," said Univer-
sity of Nebraska at Omaha finan-
cial aid director Phil Shreves.
Thirty-five percent of the UNO
students who received GSLs last
year, he estimated, won't receive

said, reducing or eliminating loans
graduate students received in the
past.

"Nontraditional" students also
must declare their spouse's income,

added .
.
Despite the tighter GSL eligibili-
ty requirements, Martin said the
financial aid picture "looks pretty
favorable," since students still have
access to other, though more ex-

Ho/d'the punches
By Annl

e Breslin
While watching the Marist-St.
Francis, N.Y., soccer game last
Thursday,
I
received a free
psychology lesson, "the effects of
violence on a partisan crowd."
No, I wasn't reading a research
paper for Introduction to
Psychology. I was a member of the
crowd in question.
As
the Terriers led Marist 3
-
2 in
the second half, a scuffle broke out
which turned into an outright
brawl.
The crowd loved it -
they went
wild,. People coming out of Don-
nelly Hall stopped and too~ notice.
Girls stopped chatting about Friday
night at Skinner's and all eyes were
on the action. The unsportsmanlike
action, that is.
It
was a
disgusting display,
similiar to what one expects at a
New York Rangers
game.
The
hockey-fight mentality had struck
Marist college soccer.
The fans, mostly students, were
frenzied. Shouting, jumping up
and down, chanting and cheering
as a livid Joe Purschke gave a
St.
Francis player what they thought
he deserved.
OK, maybe he did deserve it.
The Terriers were hardly playing
squeaky-clean soccer. A little kick
here, a hearty
_
shove there, sniping
from behind, slide-tackling -
cheap shots galore.

Marist scalped by Redmen, records 0-3 start
By Chris Barry
St. John's quarterback Scott
Scesney had the precision of a
surgeon Saturday, as the Redmen
(2-1) handed Marist a 45-19 loss-
the
..
Red Foxes' third in as many
games ;_ on Redmen Field,
Jamaica, N.Y.
Playing only the first half, the St.
John's sophomore sliced through
the Red Foxes' defense, completing
14 of 19
passes
for 206 yards and
two touchdowns.
Ironically, Marist was virtually
defenseless against Scesney
because
the
.
defensive coverage was too
good. While
his
deep receivers were
well covered, Scesiley waited for
the Marist linebackers to drop back
and pick up the middle receivers,
then hit bis tight end and running
backs on delay patterns~
The
two
teams
traded
touchdowns in the first quarter
with neither team dominating
play. After St.· John's scored,
Marist running back Dan
.
McElduff trudged over several
Redmen defenders and raced 53
yards to even the score at 7-7.
In the second quarter, Scesney
put St. John's ahead with a 2-yard
touchdown run. Marist came right
back
.when
quarterback Jason
Thomas connected with Robert
Careaga on a 29-yard touchdown
pass. The extra point was blocked,
and St. John's led 14-13.
After the Redmen scored again,
Marist took
control of the bali near
its
.
own 20-yard-line. A fumbled
pitch was recovered by St. John's,
enabling Scesney to connect on the
first of
his
touchdown passes, malc-
ing the score 28-13.
A penalty on the ensuing kickoff
gave Marist poor field position. St.
John's gained possession, and
Scesney threw hjs
second
touchdown pass just before the half
ended.
With Scesney
.
replaced in the
third period, Marist gained
momentum behind the solid defen-

Marist Head Crew Coach
Larry
Davis said he was pleased ~th the
crews' performances, noting that

design.
"When I first arrived here in
1963
I thought, 'Oh my God, what
have
I
done,' " Goldman said.
"We didn't even have a soccer
field. We had this rock and gravel
covered pit that looked like the
moon."

Goldman did not see a winning
season for five years after his in-
itial coaching stint. In 1968, the
booters posted a modest 5-4-3
mark.
"The early years were tough. In
my first four years I think we won
a total of nine games and posted
.
something
like
37 losses," he said.
Goldman credits the improve-
ment of tlie program with several
factors including his own develop-
ment as a coach.
"We gradually got better
players, but for me the big change
came when I spent three weeks in
Germany in 1974 watching the

Cup

they used this race
as
a warmup for
the bigger regattas on schedule this
season.
"We weren't really trying to go
out and spit blood in this race," he
said. "We wanted
a
nice, relaxed
regatta."

Davis said the ·team fared well
and will continue to benefit from
this si:ason's early start.
,
"We normally don't start the
season until the third week of Oc-
tober," said Davis. "Normally we
don't get on the water by this time,
nevermind race. I was pleased to
be
able to beat three Ithaca boats, be
close to the other and do well."
The crew's pre-season training,
which began Aug. 31,
is
largely to
credit for the success, according to
Davis.
"It's possibly the first time we've
ever done it and I'm sure it'll pay
dividends in the end," he said.
from the Europeans," he said.
Marist soccer evolved· in the
1970s with seven seasons enjoying
ten or more victories. Goldman
reached the pinnacle· of his
coaching tenure in 1976 as the Red
Foxes captured the Eastern College
Athletic Conference title.
Not bad for a SUNY Cortland
cross country runner who wasn't
introduced to soccer
until
his
junior
year of college.
"I expected to be a track coach
when I got out of Cortland," said
Goldman. "I ran all four years in
high school and then my first two
in college and finally I just got sick
of it
.
I talked to the coach of the
soccer team, and played my junior
and senior year."

"To this day I hate to run," he
said. "I won't even go out and
jog."
As chairman of the Marist
physical education department,
Goldman entered Indiana Univer-
sity in the early 1950s and earned
both a master's and a doctorate in
·
physical education.
Despite his success on the field,
Goldman claims he enjoys bis off-
field achievements more.
"I
really enjoy seeing the players
develop as people," he said. "I get
a great deal of enjoyment seeing
players come back
as
alumni with
families and children."
"I hope the people I've coached
can
put something back into the
ganie when they leave Marist."
Goldman says he tries to teach
bis players not to take themselves
too seriously and to "stop and
· smell the roses."
"I
don't want them to get upset
when they make mistakes. I made
a mistake once, although I cant
remember what it was," he joked.
Junior midfielder Joe "J.B"
Bettencourt echoed
his
coaching
mentor's sentiments.
·
"He
can
be
a tough coach
sometimes, but once in a while he
·
comes out with some really funny
Foxes behind for the remainder of
the game.
.
Marist completed its scoring in
the final
period
when Tho~as co~-
nected with Careaga agam, this
.
time for 26
yards.
A two-point con-
version attempt was stopped.
Despite the Red Foxes' dis~p-
pointing start, Head Coach Mike
Malet remains confident about t~e
season.
"We're 0-3 and I know a lot of
people are going to say we're the
pits," Malet said, "but we are a
good football team and we'll pro-
ve that before the end of the
season."
Thomas replaced senior Jon
Cannon as starting quarterback for
.
the first time this season. Cannon
did see playing time midway
through the third quarter while
Thomas was shaken up by a hard
bit.
Malet said the decision to change
was not based solely on ability. "I
just felt that coming off of last
week's game we should give him
(fhomas) a shot," Malet said.
"It's a situation where I feel
either one of them
can
come in and
do the job," Malet said, "and the
team feels that either one of them
can
come in and do the job. I
always have two quarterbacks
ready because you never know
when somebody is going to lay out
your quarterback and you'll lose
him for the rest of the season," he
added.

said the Poughkeepsie
native. "Sometimes he doesn't
even notice when
.
he's saying
something funny."
·
Goldman said a coach should be
a little distant
.
from bis athletes,
and he is no exception.
"I don't
run
away if a player has
a problem, but I'm also not their
drinking buddy either," he said.
"1
try to be a little distant, but
I think I set an example," added
Goldman. "I'm not hypocritical. I
don't tell them not to drink or
smoke and then smoke a cigar on
the sideline and then have them see
me falling on my nose in a bar."
Goldman says he
tries
to be con-
sistent on the field and off.
"I've always felt I was a
miserable son of a· bitch in the
classroom and
_on
the field,"he
said.

Goldman said he has truly en-
joyed bis coaching and teaching
duties at Marist, but if he has any
regrets they fall in the ad-
ministrative
wings
of Marist.
"I'm not speaking of anything
specific, but
at Marist it sometimes
seems when someone
is
.
trying to
get something done, others are
try-
ing to fmd ways to stop you," he
said.
.
.
.
''We
talk
of this human ethic
and the value of students and lear-
ning at Marist, but often
times
I
think it's abandoned and the stu-
dent becomes secondary to other
things."
.
A coach and teacher do not
become successful by putting
players and students second. With
this in mind, the walls of
Goldman's office are testimony to
bis beliefs.
Soccer sorcery shines. despite current slide
By Paul Kelly
The streak is over, and Dr.
Howard Goldman is waiting for
some more magic
;
The Marist soccer team suffered
the first blemishes on its previous-
ly unscathed record
last
week
as
the
Red Foxes tied St. John's 2-2
Saturday and lost Thursday to
ECAC Metro foe St. · Francis,
N.Y.,
3-2. The team's record is
4-1-1.
.
Marist hosted Fordham yester-
day. Results
were
unavailable at
press time.
The Red Foxes
will
play
SUNY Oneonta Saturday at
I :30
p.m.
o:i Leonidoff Field.
Despite the elimination of bis
team's perfect record, Marist
Coach Goldman
observed a
pic-
turesque
·
phenomenon occur on the
·
field during the first half of Thurs-
day's game against St. Francis,
N.Y.
He saw
magic.
The
Red Foxes,
despite the
absence of top-scorer Mark Ed-
wards,
scored both of their goals
in
the first
half,
as
Greg
Healy
and
Tim
Finegan tallied to give Marist
a 2-0 lead at intermission. It wasn't
an
ordinary
45
minutes of soccer.
During
·
the first half Marist
dominated play as
the graceful
uni-
ty
of
Marist's
forwards
and
stingy
play of the Red Foxes' defenders
allowed the forwards to decimate
the Terriers' defense. This magical
orchestration was something that
'
Marist soccer hasn't seen in a
while, and Goldman .was beaming.
"We didn't give
any
ground to
St. Francis in the Marist half (of
the the field) and we moved down
field with one-touch passes and
strings of three, four and five
passes," he said.
"It was a kind of controlled,
graceful movement of the ball,"
said Goldman. "You make the ball
do the work and move into the
spaces that are left."
During the second half however,
St. Francis, N.Y.,
sealed
any spaces
which were left, usually via ruffian
tactics, and was able
to
push and
shove its way to victory. The game
was marred by a second-half brawl
which cleared both
.
benches and
resulted in a one-game suspension
for a Terrier player and Marist
players Finegan and Joe Purschke.
-
Goldman said poor officiating
hindered any chances Marist
.
had
for victory. "We should have never
lost that game,•• said Goldman. ''
I
really thought the ref was a bandit.
He knew most of the St. Francis
players by name and my guys are
saying
'what's going on here?' "
Another bitter aftereffect of
Thursday's loss was that it placed
the Red Foxes among a throng of
ECAC Metro teams which have
one loss. A
win
Thursday would
have given Marist current sole
possession
of
first place.
Goldman used a freewheeling,
relaxed practice Friday to supress
any violent feelings remaining from
the St. Francis slugfest and prepare
for Saturday's
·
contest. Despite
goals from Charlie Ross and Tom
Haggerty, Marist could only
muster a tie. St. John's scored both
its goals on
free kicks
after Marist
fouls.
With Edwards' return to practice
slated for this week, Goldman is
hopeful the Red Foxes• soccer
sorcery will return. "I think if we
put it together we're gonna have
one of those games where wc!'re
magic," said Goldman.
"I'm
still
waiting for that."
