Fox Fest introduced as undergrad alternative to River Fest
By
NATHANIEL

Circle Contributor
In years past, River Fest has
been the only springtime cele-
bration for students at Marist
College. Since alcohol
is
served
at the event, only students over
.
21
can participate.
This year, Marist is introducing
Fox Fest, an event for und\ir-
classmen that will take place at
the
same time as River Fest.
It
will be held on the campus green
beginning at
3
p.m. on Friday,
Apr. 28.
The event is being planned by
resident
directors and resident
student councils from the fresh-
man and sophomore residences
as
well as freshman and sopho-
more class officers.
Meagan Elsberry
,
resident
director of Leo Hall, said she
thinks the event is
a
great oppor-
tunity
for younger students to
socialize and have fun before the
stress of finals.
"Everything is free for stu-
dents," Elsberry said,
and ..
there
will
be
plenty of free food.''
In addition to free food, Fox
Fest will have a DJ, games,
prizes, inflatables, and a lip
synching contest with a top prize
of
$200.

students from wandering near

"We want to pull people under

Elsbe!T)'.
Fox Fest will
be
looking
to
build on the success of two sepa-
rate events
held
alongside River
Fest last year -
Freshman Fest
and Sophomore Fest. The events
were similar to what Fox Fest
will be,
but much smaller in
scale.
According to Elsbell)', most
people wanted to expand the
events this year with more activ•
ities, and combining them
into
one extravaganza was the best
way to do that.
Resident Director Sarah
English agrees that the event
provides
a positive experience
for underclassmen, and is
happy
to see a renewed interest in pro-
viding a celebration for under-
classmen.
"Years ago we
had

The event was initially a hit,
but gradually declined in popu-

Anti-racism activist shares perspective on societal inequalities

After decades of undeserving
privilege,
it is time for the white
community to give back, said

"White

"It's like being in a club-we're

nt downside to bloodless surgery
By

advances
in surgery,
machinery, and skills are con-
stantly being upgraded as more
and more practices are finding
new and i
n
ventive ways to
decrease risks in
the
operating
room.
One traditional source of con-
cern for complications has
always been in blood transfu-
sions. Recipients would run the
risk of their bodies ident
i
fying
the new b
l
ood as a threat and
attempting to remove
it,
there-
fore reject
i
ng the blood needed
to save their
l
ife. Furthem10re, it
has been docume
n
ted that b
l
ood
stored outside the body degrades
and deforms, hindering the flow
through blood vessels, and
l
ess
-
eoing
its
ability
t
o carry oxyge

Patients who choose the no-

The answer may surpr

Many states have had b

MtvU's "Campus

this Sunday, April 30. Mot
i
on
City Soundtrack, Straylight Run,
and he
ll
ogoodbye have been
touring campuses across the
country since April 4 and fina
l
ly
make it
to
Marist.
According to a recent press
release mtvU's Campus I
n
vasion
tour
will
bring the three bands to
t
h
irteen states while making
twenty stops in just over a
month.
MtvU
'
s
Communication
Manager, Jason Rzepka stated
the importance of the tour for
new artists and its Mtv legacy,
"This is the twelfth annuaJ
Campus Invasion tour," said
Rzepka, "Although it's only been
under the mtvU banner for three
years."
The tour has been a pedestal
for new bands over the past
years and helps create a lasting
impression with co
ll
ege audi-
ences. All the bands are general-
ly geared toward a college audi-
ence and this tour gives them the
chance to break big.
Stephanie Tasy, Marist College
senior is one of the many stu-
dents looking forward to the
tour.
·
"I've been listening to [Motion
City Soundtrack's
J
new CD for
the past month," said Tasy, "I'm
obsessed."
"Hellogoodbye will open with
a 30 minute set, Straylight Run
with
a
45
min
u
te set, and Motion
City with an hour
set,"
said
Rzepka, "They p
l
an to play fan
favorites
as
well
as
some new
songs."
MtvU is the largest television
network geared toward college
students and broadcasts to
"730
colleges across the country, with
a combined enrollment of over
6.8
m
ill
ion," according to the
press release.
This isn't mtvU's only tour this
year. The network has plans to
continue their annual Tai
l
gate
Tour as well as the Gamers' Ball,
a
tour that features new video
games and gaming townaments.
Student tickets are $5 at SC
373
and gates open at 4: 15 p.m.

held in the Nelly Goletti Theatre.
Opening Thur,day, Apiil 20,
the program lasted for three
nights featuring a co

ection of
student-writte
n
plays selected by
Professor "Dean" Cox's Theatre
Workshop class. P
l
ay submis-
sions were given to Cox then
narrowe
d

twelve

Finally, the

in the workshop voted
for the ones they thought should
be
staged.

es a~lass, look at a nwn-
ber of different factors when
making our decision such as:
character
development, conflict
resolution, and if there is a clear
message," she said.
"We also
look at these plays as works in
progress
... 'if
we can find prom-
ise and a p
l
aywrigh
t
who is also
willing to accept their play as
unfinished and will revise to pro-
duce a
stronger script,
then we
will lean toward those."
Prior to the production, all
seven writers had varying levels
of experience.
Playwrig

t
Rache
l
Newman extended her
practice of writi
n
g short
stories
to wri
t
ing
scripts
with her play
"Stonny
Weather."
"I
was able to see something
I
had created come to life," she
said
.
"It was a great experience
to work with people who took
my ideas and made them real."
John
Norton,
director
of
"Trippingly
on the Tongue," and
writer of
"I
Do,"
differentiates
between the
experiences
of
writ-
ing and directing.
"As a write! your main goaJ is
to get your story told," he said.
"As a director
...
you must take
care of mood, movement, and
you
must work with
your
actors
very close
l
y
as you all grow
together."
The p
l
aywrights and directors
credit the program for giving
them a greater understanding
of
what is necessary to bring the
scripts

the intended message. Me

Martinez, a
student
in Cox's
Theatre Workshop, and director
of
"Speed
Demons," expressed
the need for inte
r
action between
the writer, director, and cast
members.
Having done smaUer scenes for
directing class, the bigger pro-
duction proved "just how collab-
orative theatre is," she said.
S
m
aller
cast
siz.es and
smaller
produc
t
ion teams equates to
more unity.
"Without mean
i
ng to sound
clicM, we really do become a
fami
l
y. This experience was cer-
tain
l
y
no
except
i
on,"
said
Norton.
Norton cites
his
combination
Of
experience with different
aspects
of theater includ
i
ng,
acting,
directing, and writing as integral
to his success.
"Because I've directed before
I've dived into playwriting, it's
affected my writing
...
in a posi-
tive way," he said. "I know how
characters need to move on stage
and how the overall picture
Tleeds to look. so because of this,
as I'm writing, I can visualize my
words coming to life on stage."
Although the majority of indi-
viduals involved in the p
r
oduc•
tion had taken other production
c
l
aSses or been invo
l
ved with
Marist Co
ll
ege
Council on
Theatre Arts, the production still
taught students about stage act-
ing and personal style.
Newman made changes
to
the
c
h
aracter's dia
l
ogue to make it
flow better, and "the blocking
and
setting
of the end had to
be
changed to fit stage adaptation,"
she said.
Expressing her admiration for
the quality of Nei
l
Simon's slap-
stick comedy, "I could never
compare to Simon," Newman
said. "But
I
love his style and
I
wanted
to
have
a play
that
made
peop
l
e
laugh and forget their
troub
l
es
fo
r
a few minutes."
Martinez explained that to
earn
a director's role, the
students
had
to
submit
their top
three
choices
of plays for directing to Cox
a1ong with an analysis of the
plays.
She was awarded the
opportunity to produce her top
choice and uses a thematic quote
from "Speed Demons" to convey
her interpretation of the play's
meaning.

"Most
people do not know race

said
Rose.
"Race
is a basic piece of knowl-
edge
that can enlighten and
change us."
As
an anti-racism
activist,
Lamb advocates for reparations
to the African-American com-
munity. She h~
had
the opportu-
nity
to tum against the
system
that originally gave her the priv-
ilege. Although an individual
might eliminate racism from his
or her mind, it may still be at the
core of his or her heart, said
Lamb.
Lamb has developed a strategy
to
begin
reparations,
in
which an
individual begins with
sc
lf-
ex:amination, then reaches out
others,
and eventually alters the
ins
.
titutional
fonn
of racism.
"We
must examine ourselves
moment to moment, and rather
than deny it, own up to
it
and
work
at it,'"
said Lamb.
ThroughO\Jt
her
studies, Lamb
has found that depending on the
individual, the
first
step may be
the hardest. Rose agrees with
Lamb's strategy
fol'
reparations,
and the idea that Xlf-actualiza-
tion
is
typically
a
difficult
process.
"Although
it.
is
best to recog-
nize our inrter-racism.
it
is often
the most frightening task," said
Rose.
Lamb was not always involved
in the anti-racism movement.
After a long history of drug-
abuse, she has
been
sober for
thirty-three
years,
and
has
since
dedicated her life to
"making
the
world a better place."
"My
heart
is.in
the
right place,"
said
Lamb
...
I
now Jive for much
more than my own pleasure."

Women's tennis falls in the championship match
By
NATE
FIELDS
Staff Writer
After a perfect 7-0 record in
conference play, and the regular
season Metro Atlantic Athletic
Co
n
ference (MAAC)
title,
the
Marist Red Fox. women's tennis
team suffered
its
first loss against
a MAAC opponi:nt in Sunday's
tournament
championship
against Siena.
The ladies started their week
-
end off by pounding St. Peter's
6-t
on Friday, dropping only one
singles match, and taking all
three doubles matc
h
es convinc-
ingly.
Aside
from
third
singles,
where
junior Megan Gureck fell in
three hard-fought
sets,
the Fox.es
outscored the Peacocks 60-6 in
singles
play, and 24-6 in doub
l
es.
Saturday
'
s match-up against
Fairfie
l
d had
similar
results, as
Marist player's did not
surrender
a
single
point to the Stags. The
Foxes again swept through dou-
bles, and co
n
tinued to dominate
in singles.
Interim head coach Tim Smith,
who is also the men's tennis head
coach and had expected his
men's team to claim victory in
their quarter and
sem
i
final
matches, felt the same way about
the women. He knew the team
had success earlier in the season
against St. Peter's and Fairfield,
and expected nothing less than to
move on to the fina
l
.
"We beat Fairfield 4-3 two
weeks ago, and then beat them 4-
0 in the tournament," he said. He
then added t
h
ough,
"I
was very
happy with the progress the team
made since I took over less than
a mo
n
th ago,"
The undefeated women carried
that progress into a Su
n
day
showdown with second-place
Siena College.
The team got off to a slow start,
surrendering
all
three doub
l
es
matc
h
es, all by close scores.
''The doubles were crucial,"
Smith said.
"And
we barely won
those matches at Siena a week
ago. Once we lost the doubles
point, I felt we were in serious
troub
l
e."
Smith's premonitions came
true, as the situation did not
improve in singles play. The
Saints took the
first
three sing
l
es
matches, g
i
ving them four total
team points and securing victory.
Although the scores were not
pretty, Smith i
n
sisted that the
team played well.
"The score was not indicitive
of the play. Erin Godly, at num-
ber
3 singles, had won the first
set and was ahead in the second."
Unfortunately for God
l
y and
her teammates,
Siena had
a
l
ready secured the champi-
ons
h
ip trophy by a 4-0 score.
Smith attributed part of the
team's disappointi
n
g finish to the
coaching shakeup that occurred
mid-season.
"If we had had anothe
r
mo
n
th
to
train and p
r
epare, it could well
have been a different outcome."

Second seed secured
for Mari st water polo
By
DAVID HOCHMAN
Staff
Writer
The Marist water polo squad
closed out its regular season on a
five-game
winning
streak
against conference opponents.
The Red Foxes finished the
season with a
21-12
record,
while going
8-2
in
Metro
Atlantic Athletic Conference
(MAAC) play, with their only
losses
at
the hands
of Wagner.
Marist has a chance for redemp-
tion this weekend though, as
the
MAAC tournament comes to
Poughkeepsie.
By cleaning up
the
pool this
weekend, the Foxes assured
themselves a number-two seed
in the tournament. They did this
by beating Siena and Iona on
April
22
and
taking
out
Villanova and
St
Francis
(N.Y.)
in exciting fashion
the next
day.
Sunday's games were as high-
ly
entertaining
as
any all year.
Marist trailed by five goals
to
Villanova but stormed back to
win
9-7.
Junior Jillian Jefferds
led the
way for Marist with
three
goals
,
two assists
,
and two steals.
Freshman Katelin McCahill and
'.'lcnior Mary Grisey nlso hnd n
big day with two goals each.
Freshman Kari Weston contin-
ued her season-long great play
with two steals. and sophomore
goalies Elizabeth Davis and
Katy Zweifel split time in
net
making seven and ten saves,
respectively.
The Red Foxes played the last
game of the regular season with
great poise, jumping out to an
early
lead
and never relinquish-
ing
it. They led
7-t
at
halftime
and ended up winning
12·
7
behind a
balanced scoring
attack. Weston
,
McCahill, and
sophomore Allison Rader each
had two goals
,
and six more
Foxes each chipped in one goal.
Mccahill put forth another all-
around performance as she also
picked up two assists and two
steals. Due to her great play all
weekend
,
the MAAC named
McCahill Conference Player of
the Week for the second time this
season. Davis and Zweifel split
time again, this time combining
for
I
5
saves.
On
April 29, Marist will chal-
lenge
Iona in one semifinal
match
for
the
MAAC
Championship. The winner will
move on to the title game on
April 30 versus the winner of the
Wagner-Vil\:mova g3mc
.
