Ha'.llfire triggers safety awareness
by

!twas
a .tragic story that .·
alarmed a nation.
·Three· innocent college stu-
dents were killed in a Seton Hall_
dorm fiie and _many others suf-
fered from smoke inhalation and
shock_. The fire is not only a
tragedy of. young. lives cut
short, it is an event that opened
the eyes of campuses around
the nation. With fire tragedies
more prevalent in the news, it
raises. an• in:ipo$fit; qllestio_n -

have," said McLain.
The Seton Hall fire has not
only put the fire alarm system
under review, but Marist is initi~
ating more fire safety training for
resident staff members.
Marist College also helps to
prepare students in case of
emergencies with fire drills,
which are he_ld on a regular ba-
sis. Such precautions do secure
the uncertainties of campus stu-
dents.
"The school is relatively_safe
with constant fire drills and
· smoke detectors in every room,"
said Bri"an McAlpin, a freshman
and Parliamentarian of the stu-
dent government here at Marist.
. "Ninety-nine percent of fire
alarms occur at dinner," stated
Tom McLain .. He said most
alarms are due to students who
are careless with cooking. He
cited examples, such as stu-
dents placing both a pizza and
its cardboard box in the oven.
However, with the tragedy of
Seton Hall still fresh in the
minds of many, students seem
to be taking fire precautions
more seriously. Curtis Kelly,
a
Resident Assistant of Gartland
Commons, believes this helped
in the recent fire drills held last
week.
"We_ area relatively safe cam-
pus in comparison to other col..:
leges of the same size," said Tom .

.
· According to. the Office of
Safety andSecurity, the campus
seems very safe. Marist College
has a campus-wide fire alarm
system, which connects not
only to the security office by a

Even with the adequate fire
system, Marist College is look-
ing to improve the campus' fire
safety. Currently, the campus is
under review from the president
and others.
"Marist is reviewing all pro-

. campus, the issue raises another
important question: How effec-
tive are they? With fire alarms
constantly going off in housing
areas such as Gartland Com-
mons, these drills seem to have
desensitized many students
who have become annoyed
with the constant alarms.
Fire safety has become a real-
ity to everyone on campus and
with Safety and Security pre-
pared for emergency, students
and staff can feel secure once
again.

A catholic, Brenkert received
religious education during his
youth but attended public grade
.
and high schools. He said he
wanted to come to Marist to see
the difference between the two.
"l
wanted to see what the real
difference
.
was between public
and private school," he said.
As to which he prefers,
"I
can't
make the decision yet."
Program coordinator Lewis
said he hopes that the program
will increase in popularity as
pe9ple learn more about it.
"Marist is privileged to have
'
this program," he said.

Keep your eyes on
The Circle
this semester, we are in capable
hands under Chris and Jaime
.
Perhaps it takes two people to
replace a leader of my caliber ... or
perhaps they figured they could
blame everything that goes
wrong on each other. Either
way, it's sure to
.
be a good last
semester for
.
the graduating se-
niors (we do graduate eventu-
ally, right?)
,
and for everyone
else, I have but one word of ad-
vice: avoid the lepers.
Patrick Whittle lost his title as
Editor-in-Chief ofThe Circle af-
ter a viol!;!nt coup led by Chris
Grogan and Jaime Tomeo gave
him no choice but to flee for his
life. While on the run, he was
offered an internship at The
Nation

For my first column of the new
semester, new year, and .new
millenium, I thought that
it
mi~t
be nice to give a sort of mid-
season recap ofthe six broad-
cast networks, and where they
stand so far in the 1999-2000
season. Some networks have
had great years (ABC, UPN)
while others have had not-so-
great years (NBC, FOX). So,
without further adieu, here is my
quick midseason analysis. The
analysis also includes a grade, ·
which is based on the network's
overall success (or failure) so far
this season:

is still very much up'in the
air. Michael J. Fox, who h~s
Parkinson's disease, has an-
nounced he'll be leaving the
show at the end of the year.
While it's true that
Spin City
is
an ensemble show, it's almost as
difficult to imagine a Fox-less
Spin City
as it is -to imagine a
Ted Danson-less
Cheers.
Still,
the alphabet network has a lot
to cheer about. ABC had the
-Super Bowl this year, which is
· always ratings gold, and they
have the Oscars in March, which
is also sure to do great. Based
on
Who Wants to be a Million-
aire,
the Super Bowl, and the
Oscars, ihe buzz is that ABC
might actually win the
1999-2000
ratings race. Considering their

NBC has seen their fortunes re-
ally drop this season. The net-
work started the season in a bit
of controversy, having uncer-c

darlings

and

cide: life on the Street
late last
spring. It didn't help
matters
any
when
The Mike O 'Malley Show
and
Cold Feet,
the two shows
which replaced
NewsRadio
and
Homicide,
respectively, on the
schedule, promptly tanked in
the ratings and became two of
the first casualties of the 1999-
2000
season.
From
there things
kept on getting worse for NBC.
Its once-strong Tuesday night
sitcom 1ineup has performed
consistently worse in the rat-
ings, regularly losing to CBS,
_ since
Jn Living Colo~.
If
Malcolm in the.Middle
proves
to be a long-standing hit, FOX's
misfortunes during the 1999-
2000. season, while still pretty
bad, may not be as bad as ex-
pected.
GRADE:
C
UPN
Like
ABC,
UPN's phenomenal
success this season can be at-
tributed to a single show:
WWF
Smackdown!
The show is by
far the biggest hit UPN has ever
had in all of its five years of ex-
istence, especially·. with the
young adult audience. It
wouldn't be a big stretch to say
that
WWF Smackdown!
has
saved UPN. As mentioned

Another strong acting perfor-
remember him fondly.
m~nce comes from Danriy
DeVito; who plays Kaufman's
agent, George Shapiro. Shapiro
spots Kaufman at one of the lo-
cal Clubs and decides right
away that he needs to sign the
unorthodox comedian. Through
his work with Kaufman the two
become great friends and form
~
strong relationship. The in-
teresting thing here is that
De Vito received this role even
though he was a member of the
Taxi cast. Thus he was the only
member not played by himself
in the film. Courtney Love also
puts forth a respectable perfor-
mance
as
Kaufman's girlfriend,
proving to us that she may be a
better actor than musician.
Maybe she actually should quit
her day job.
The film is so strong on so
many levels.
It
is an accurate
biography, but it is done in such
a fashion that the audience is
never bored. Even though they
may know a lot about Kaufman,
they're still on the edge of their
seats. The acting is great on al1
parties, causing the audience to
be p1:1Ued in multiple directions
whenever the characters are.
But the selling point of this
movie has got to be the depic-
tion of. Kaufman

w~ich was right on the money
as he totally lost himself in

The Academy may have
snubbed Carrey Jast year, but it
would be awfully hard for them
to do it for a second straight year
after this impressive perfor-
mance, convincing us that he's
more than just a comedian.

Bad news has
.
become com-
monplace for the Marist men's
basketball team laiely, and there
are no signs of that changing.
In addition to losing forward
Tomasz Cielebak, who went
home to Poland to care for his
cancer.,.stricken mother, the Red
Foxes are now without the ser-
vices of jui:tio
·
r forward Donald
Vale and senior swingman Joe
Mccurdy.
Vale has left the team for what
appears to be the remainder of
the season to concentrate on his
academics. The decision to re-
move Vale from the team canie
after consultation with head
coach Pave Magarity, athletic
director TimMuqay and NCAA
faculty representative Dr. John
Ritschdorff.
According to Murray, it was
important that Vale get back on
track academically.
'
'
.
A
ciear
distinction had to be
made that Vale was not academi-
callyineligible according to col-
_Iege standards. He was simply
not meeting standards the ath-
letic department sets for their
athletes.
.
"It was purely a decision made
by the coaches and the athletic
department," Murray said.
"This had nothing to do with
the office of academics which
would deal with suspensions."
The absence of Vale could
prove to be a crushing loss, He
gave Marist a crucial spark off
· the bench. In 13games, he was
averaging six points, three re-
bounds in
14
minutes of action.
Magarity stressed the magni-
tude oflosing Vale.
·
"It's a very big ioss for us. He
was one of ounop six or seven
guys," Magarity said. "He was
the first guy to come off in the
front line rotation. Vale was play-
ing pretty well and had some big
games. He's a terrific rebounder,
and· he plays with a ton of en-
ergy. He's one of the toughest
players I've ever coached."

After going 8-3 through the
first 11 games of the season,
good enough for one of the best
starts in team history, the Marist
women's basketball team hit a
bump in the road and now owns
a 9-9 record.
In an 11-game span starting on
Dec. 11, the women posted,
