NewregulationmakesNapsteruseillegaloncampus
by
ED WILLIAM.Sm
·
·
Staff Writer
.
One of the favorite activities
of many Marist students has
come to an
·
end, as the entire
campus received the bad news
·
on April
19.
E--mail from A. Hany Williams,
director of technology
_
and sys-
tems, was sent out to the entire
campus explaining that use of a
program called Napster
on
the
Marist network would be
banned starting May
1.
Napster was the program used
by many to download their fa-
vorite music onto their own
.
.
.
-.
.
computers;
·
According to its website,
Napsteris an integrated browser
and coillmunic::ations system
provided
:
by
.
Napster,
Inc:
to
enable musicians and music
fans to locate bands and music
available in the
MP3
music for-
mat. It also goes on to say that
users are responsible for com-
plying with all applicable federal
and state laws applicable to
such content, including copy-
right laws.
Martha Mcconaghy, man-
ager, systems/network and op-
erations, explained why Napster
was being lJanned.
The primary reason was net-
work
.
bandwid
_
tht she s_aid
.
"Napst~r was taking up a sig-:-
nificant amount of bandwidth.
We had received a lot of com-
plaints fr(?m
·
students about
slowed internet connections.
"We have various ways of
looking at the traffic. We can
see what programs people are
using.
If
they're taking up too
much bandwidth, they'll be
taken off the network. We've
seen as much as two or three
gigabytes of activity per per-
son, per day. All of that activity
takes away from everyone else's
use of the network.
·
The e-mail
has gone out to faculty as well
as the students, so this is a cam-
pus~wide ban."
Marist is not the only college
to deal with the Napster prob-
.
lem. Earlier this month, the rock
band Metallica filed a lawsuit
. against Napster
·
itself .
.
·
.
They
also filed suit in U.S. District
Court against the University of
Southern California, Yale Uni-
versity and Indiana University
as defendants.
The suit charged Napster and
the schools in question with
copyright infringement, unlaw-
ful use of digital audio interface
device and violations of the
Racketeering Influenced and
Corrupt Organizations Act.
Since the Metallica lawsuits, all
three colleges have banned the
use ofNapsteras well.
McConaghy said the legal ac-
tivity did not influence the ban.
"We knew about the lawsuit,
but it wasn't really the reason
for banning Napster," she said.
"We had decided to ban it even
before the lawsuit. Also, the ban
is not just Napster, it's on all
similar software as well. Any-
thing that performs that same
kind of function is banned.
"The students also have to be
very aware of the situation.
Some of these lawsuits aren't
going after schools, but instead
they're going after individuals.
They could be tracked down and
sued themselves."
Two students from Siena
found out the ha,rd way as they
were arrested for violation of
copyright laws.
This ban has received mixed
reviews across campus.
''I'm happy that they banned
it because it now speeds up the
rest of my Internet activity, but
I'm
upset at the same time be-
cause
I
don't have the access
to music I once had, and now I
have to buy CD's," said fresh-
man Paul Lukason.
"
Come on. Let's get real. Do
these students really need the
faster speeds to download their
debauchery? That's right, de-
bauchery," said freshman Eric
Wehrberger. ''I'd rather listen
to some music than hear geeks

.
Not With Our Money! litera-
ture reads: '"The dirty secret of
the private prison industry, is
that while the profits end up in
the hands of a few corporations,
all of the rest of us pay the
·
so-
cial costs
.
Eventually, nearly all
ofCCNs inma~ will return to
public life; will the time they
spent in dangerous and inhu-
. mane prisons make us safer?"
Sodexho, which provides ser-
vices at all of Marist's dining
facilities, owns 17 percent of

America (CCA), the largest U.S.
private prison operator, and nine
percent of Prison Realty Trust,

.
anFBlprobeinApril
1999.
The
company also faces ~nanc~al
woes, having announced the
loss of a combined $265 million
inl999.·
Joseph Heavy, general man-
ager for all on~campus dining
facilities, said he has heard of
.
th~
protests but d ~ not know
enough about the details of the
to take a personal stance.
"I'd have to say I don't know
enough about the situation to
form an intelligent opinion,"
Heavy said. "Of course I don't
personally endorse sweatshop
like conditions or labor."
Little ciamor has been made
on the Marist campus in re-
sponse, but some students are
aware of the controversy.
"It
wouldn't surprise me if
I
found out that an organization
associated with Marist (like
Sodexho) was doing something
·
sketchy outside ofMarist," said
Senior Kevin Graff.
Prison Moratorium Project and
Raptivism Records recently an-
nounced the release of the "No
More Prisons" Hip Hop Compi-
lation
CD,
accompanied by the
current "No More Prisons" hip-
hop tour. The 40-city tour hits
many college campuses, and is
being used along with the CD
as a tool to educate students
and music fans and raise money
for activists.
Sodexho Marriott, targeted by
the tour, shut down a No More
Prisons event February
15
at
American University. The event
was to be held at a Sodexho
Marriott owned facility.

There are also some students
that think this whole ban will
blow over once these lawsuits
are settled and Napster will be
back in full effect next year.
However, Mcconaghy does
not foresee the same thing.
"I don
'
t anticipate it ever be-
ing un-banned," she said.
"Its
use spreads very quickly. The
way Napster works, you also

It becomes a security issue too

Black week celebrates heritage ofstudents.,faculfy
by
BRENDANMcGURK
Staff Writer
This past week, Marist College
held its annual tradition ofBiack
Week, celebrating the heritage
of students and faculty of Afri-
can~American ancestry.
Marist's Black Student Union
sponsored the weeklong event,
which ran from April 24 through
.
April 29. The week, filled with
activities
celebrating black heri-
tage, was open to the entire
campus.
The first event to kick off the
annual Black Week was Tues-
day evening's Nyabingi.
Nyabingi, a Swahili word trans-
lated as
"celebration",
was the
talent show event. The show
featured
.
several acts ending
with farewell songs from several
seniors, including Edward
Antoine, the former president of
the Black Student Union. The
event culminated in the corona-
tion of this year's Black King and
Queen.
Wednesday night's festivities
were highlighted by
a
lecture by
black poet an~ speaker Kurt
·
Nugent Nugent's slam poem
...
was geared to addressing issues
of the day such as interracial
relationships and racism.
Nugent was performing excerpts
from his book of poetry, Poetic
Justice.
Dr. Gregory Moses, the faculty
advisor for the Black Student
Union, said that Nugent
brought tremendous energy
and talent to the performance.
"[Nugent] performed to a
small, enthusiastic audience,"
Moses.said.
"He
brought a lot
of energy to the show. We look
forward to a lot more perfor-
mances with him. I was very
happy to have witnessed such
a rising star on his way up."
Thursday evening's events
.
included the Def Jam Explosion,-

ret. The three humorists, Rob

.

Stapleton, John Lanster and
Kareem, performed to a mixed
crowd of Marist students.
Valerie Page, president of the
Black Student Union, said that
.
.
there was a good turnout of stu-
dents for the event.
·
"There
·
was a crowd of about
·
150 in the Cabaret that night. It
was a pretty good turnout for
the event," Page said.
Friday's activities were high-
lighted by the Black Student
Union-sponsored Fashion
Show, held in the Cabaret.
The week's
·activities
and
events culminated in Saturday
evening's main event, the Cul-
tural Dinner Dance. The semi-
formal event was a dinner and
awards ceremony to honor out-
standing members of the Mari st
faculty, as well as students in-
volved in the Black Student
Union.
Awards were presented to stu-
dents from every year, freshman
through senior, for outstanding
contributions to the
.
organiza-
tion. Awards were also pre-
sented to faculty members in
fields such as most informative
faculty member, most support-
ive faculty member, most sup-
portive
college

the like.

Joseph Leary, director of safety

Both computers, including
keyboards and printers, were
taken from room 105 of the psy-

chology department between 1
a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 21 and
noon on Sunday Oct. 22, Leary
said.

"Whoever took them (comput-

doing," Leary said.
And the thief or thieves knew
exactly what they wanted,
Leary
said.
Only the two new

was damaged and an old com~
puter was left behind, Leary
said.
Dr. Royce White, assistant

Housekeeping was the

last to see the computers when
workers were cleaning at I a.m.
on Saturday, Leary said.
The theft prompted Security,
under the request of White and
other faculty members, to install
new locks last Friday. Before
the lockchange, any student or
faculty member who had reason
to use the room could get keys
or access to them, Leary said.
"In a case like this you try to
figure out who has access,"
Leary
said. "But there were just
too many keys out there to boil
itdown to a few people."

the past two years
byTRACEYCARANGELO
:
This article is being written
with. the intent to convince as
many people as possible to
study abroad .
.
I
am here in
Madrid, Spain, the second se-
mester of my junior year, hav-
ing the time of my life. Although
this undescribeable experience
will
soon come to end,
I
have
been wishing I had stayed here
for two semesters.
I
have ac-
.
complished a lot so far but there
is always more.
So you may be wondering
why I
am
telling you this but it
isn't something that I could just
let go or forget My goal now is
to persuade others that they too
can
make it one semester or two,
away from Marist College. Not
that
I
don't loye the red foxes or
anything, but if you can go
away and experience something
new and adapt to a
_
new culture,
I guarantee you won't regret it
and undoubtedly learn from the
experience.
I mean, why not? What have
you got to lose?
If
you are afraid
that you are going to miss
peopl~-if they
are
true friends,
they will still
be
there when you
get back and supporting you
the whole time anyway. Not to
mention, if you feel you could
never make
.
it out of the country
for so long, don't worry! You
create your days and you de-
cide what you do and there are
always are Americans wherever
· you go so you
can
actually go
away but not feel that you
are
away-get it? But, of course this
is not avisable and/or the
rea-
son one should go away.
Again, not to go on but i want
to express th~t you make the
most of what you do. So if you
want a challenge, something
new, something interesting in-
stead of the same old Marist life,
th
_
en do it Go away and prove it
to yourself. The benefits out-
weigh the problems, if any. The
hardest feat that I have con-
quered has been actually sitting
down trying to do work because
there is so much to do and so
much to
see.
There is always a lot of op-
portunity to travel too so the
more you
see
the better,
_right?
Research countries and pro-
grams, then do it Try it for a
year and if you can't,
a
semes-
ter.
If
one thing
I
have learned
here, is that time
flies.
You have
to be prepared but flexible and
make the most of your days.
If
anyone has any questions about
·
anything or needs further en-
couragement that it is okay to
go abroad, email me ... k3s3

Well, this is it. My last "On
TV" column of the 1999-2000
school year. Over the last eight
months, I hope I've kept you
entertained.
I know I've kept
myself entertained. I'd like to
say that knowing that I've
amused myself is all that mat-
ters, but I'd be lying. After all,
this column is for you, the
would-be couch potatoes that
help to make up the Marist com-
munity. So, I thought that in this
column for you, I'd do a tribute
to a show that
1 know many of
you have watched since the
time you got your very first zit.
I'm
talking about
Beverly Hills,
90210,
which is leaving the air
-
waves after ten years.
I
doubt there is a student on
campus who isn't at least some-
what familiar
withBeverly Hills,
90210
(which is commonly
known as
90210).
The show de-
buted in 1990, when most of us
were just finishing
up
grammar
school or just starting junior
high. Though
I had seen
bits
and pieces ofit before, my per-
sonal introduction to
90210
came in 1991, when I watched a
dubbed~in-Spanish version of it
in my Spanish class. That was
during the show's early years,
when twins Brandon (Jason
Priestly) and Brenda (Shannen
Doherty) Walsh were the main
characters on the show. The two
had moved to Beverly Hills
(quick; guess the zip code) from
Minnesota with their parents
Cindy. At their new high school,
Brandon and Brenda quickly

misadventures begin.
The
90210
gang graduated
high school in 1993 and went
on to college. In the type of
wonderful coincidence that
only happens in television land,
they all wind up at the same col-
lege together ( except, of course,
for Dylan, the James Dean-ish
loner, played by Luke Perry).
Things don't stay that way for
long, though. Who doesn't re-

one way"to know for sure what
will happen, and that's to tune
in. The finale airs May 17th, and
by that time finals will be over,

We came in around 10 in
the morning and were immedi-

convoy of police cars and mo-

hoping to intimidate the onlook-
ers. Along with the previously
mentioned P.Olice were police on

These
"robocops

were protected by

knee-high boots, heavy kevlar
vests, sleeved gloves, a helmet
with a visor, several canisters of
pepper spray, a tear gas gun,
and night stick.
There were scattered groups
marching across the city, some
merely marching with chants
,
some with rather creative signs
or other creations. A group of
five protesters had a giant card-

onstrator marched around in full
drag, repeatedly telling onlook-
ers, "you don't have to pimp
yo'selves out to the World Bank
no more."
But the protesters who re-
ceived most of the attention
(from both the media and police)
were the ones participating in
civil disobedience by swarming
barricades with their bodies.
Several times during the day
they would surround the incom-
ing cars containing the IMF del-
egates in an attempt to block
them out of their meeting. They
succeeded in delaying the meet-
ing, but only delaying. At cer-
tain points in the day, the pro-
test seemed more like a city-
wide carnival with protesters
lying on the grass getting a sun
tan.
It is at this point that I started
to have mixed feelings about the
protest. The intensity dropped
around 2:30 in the afternoon as
many wandered towards the
green to hear Ralph Nader,
among others, speak. At first I
was disturbed but then I real-
ized two things. Firstly, the
Untitled
people showed up for the right
reasons, and they did their best
to make themselves heard,
whether it be from chaining
themselves down and risking
pepper spray, or simply from
marching with the crowd
.
Sec-
ondly, a major success was
reached besides stalling the del-
egates meeting
.
We were seen.
The protest received a
plethora of media attention (not
all of it entirely informative, but
coverage
nonetheless)
throughout the weekend. Many
people sitting at home saw the
protests on the news that night
without even knowing about th~
controversy over the IMF and
World Bank
.
In this scenario,
we achieved our goal of inform-
ing people that there is a seri-
ous problem and hopefully
there will be even more con-
cerned and informed people on
the street next time around. We
may have not changed much
but we did our best
, a
nd to some
extent we can
s
ay that th
e
coun-
try heard us.
