All-Americ·an Rejects 'move along' to Marist
MTV favorite
performed
in
McCann

On
Oct. 5, 2006, the autumn
cold was biting at the students
waiting to see the All•American
Rejects at the McCann Center.
Despite that fact, the spirit at
Marist's annual fall concert was
hotter than ever.
After two successful spring
concerts last semester, Marist's
Sludent Programming Council
exceeded expectations yet again,
bringing the Verizon Wireless
Campus Tour to the McCann
Center. The tour, featuri~g
Damone, Ima Robot, Under the
Influence of Giants and the All•
American Rejects,
drew
large
numbers to McCann for an 8pm
show.
The tint opener, Damone, had
a
l
970's rock and roll vibe that
imparted itself onto a wide-eyed
and excited audience. Comprised
of Noelle LeBlanc, Dustin
Hengst,
Mike
Woods
and
Vazquez., they brought a new
style to a stage to be graced with
indie and emo acts throughout
the evening.
.
Due to the style
difference,
some, like
sophomore
Mike
Dozois said they found them to
be
a little off.putting.
"I
am not into the whole "old
rock and roll
"
and
"long
hair
band rock and roll"" he said, but
praised Noelle on her voice qual-
ity.
Ima Robot was second to the
stage, composed of Alex Ebert,
Timmy Anderson, Andy Marlow,
Filip Nikolic and Scott Devours.
Filled with immense energy, the
new-wave-esque music resonat•
ed across the stage as Alex made
his away across. Memorable
moments
included
Andy
excitably twjtching across the
stage, as well as using a gear
case
as
a substitute for a black
Jetta.
Rounding out the openers was
Under the Influence of Giants.
Hailing from Los Angeles, the
indie pop band consisting of
Aaron Bruno, Jamin Wilcox,
Drew
Stewart
and
David
Amezcua blasted onto the stage
in glam•rock reminiscent white
pants and blazers.
Although many went to the
concert just to see the All-
American Rejects, Under the
[nfluence of Giants had their fair
amount of fans in the audience,
like Colin Rand, sophomore.
"Personally,
I
went for Under
the Influence of Giants" Rand
said. "The All-American Rejects
are good, but I'm more of a fan
of the Giants."
At about 10:30 pm, the All-
American Rejects took the stage
to much yelling and applause.

Students search for potential jobs
By
JAMES MARCONI
News Editor
Before throngs of screaming
fans lined the stage to hear the
All American
Rejects last
Thursday, the McCann Center
brimmed with corporate repre-
sentatives and students in neat
business attire. At the ~ual
Career Networking Conference
hosted by the college, both
prospective
employees
and
employers were hunting for the
right connection.
Representatives from approxi-
mately 75 employers in varying
fields - including ABC/Capital
Cities-Disney, Bank of America,
IBM, and Madison Square
Garden
-
attended the confer-
ence. While resumes were being
passed out, employers from
some companies said that they
were also
looking
intently at stu-
dents' personal traits.
"First impressions are always
very important," said Ameriprise
Financial representative Robert
Dolliver. And making that good
impression is "really just about
being personable.
[We want]
someone who can communicate
and articulate what they're look-
ing for."
Wells-Fargo representative
Jennifer Garcia also said that
while
her
company was looking
for "a few good employees," the
career conference afforded the
opportunity to promote the
Wells-Fargo name through good
public relations. Co-representa-
tive Allan Truex agreed, adding
that in person it is harder for
both students and employers to
take measure of each other.
"Here
at a job fair, it's more
pressure
,
face to face," Truex
said.
Students interviewed also said
that this kind of an event was
stressful because with gradua•
tion mere months away, the need
for employment was in the fore-
front of their minds.
"As a senior, it's a big pres-
sure; as soon as you get out of

Toastmasters aim for official club status
By
MATT SPILLANE
Staff Writer
You may not have heard about
the Toastmasters International
club at Marist College, but the
worldwide organization has had
a chapter on campus for three
years.
It
is currently in the
process of receiving official
"club" status, a step calculated to
help the club reach more stu-
dents and get its name out
around campus.
According to the organization's

website,
Toastmasters
International leaches basic com-
munication skills that are vital in
all different fields of work.
Although the Marist chapter has
primarily reached out to business
majors and Toastmasters at large
is popular in the business worlQ,
the organization
hopes
that stu-
dents of different concentrations
will see its universal benefits.
Skills such as delivering public
speeches, listening more effec-
tively, and developing stronger
leadership qualities are neces-
sary to succeed in any line of
work, according to the website
. The club's vice president, sen-
ior Tim Johansen, also stressed
that communication is vital to
every profession, no matter what
it
is. Whether you are an English
teacher
or a CEO, these skills
will make your job easier and
your work more productive,
Johansen said. "That's why it is
helpful to anybody and every-
body."

The Chinese philosopher once
said that a

begins with just one step. The
Marist Abroad Program provid-
ed that one step for students who
wished to begin their journey.
The Abroad office hosted a fair
in the Rotunda on October 4,
2006
during activity hour.
Students worked tables that rep-
resented the many opportunities
a Marist student has to travel and
learn about another culture. They
showed off pictures depicting
their experiences with the pro-
grams, shared stories as well as

Despite the ingenuity of the

throughout the on-campus and

At this type of a co

ference
where first impressions can real-

r
eak
,
the name of the
game is networking, said senior
Megan Murphy
.
She said she
hoped to "'meet people that work
in [my] field. kind of getting my
feet wet."
Preparation beforehand is also
a
must, according to senior
Bethany Bohlin. For her, this
meant research into the compa-
nies that she migh
t
be interested
in,
and writing her resume,
which proved to
be
the most
stressfu
l
aspec
t
of the process
.
At the confe
r
ence itself, the idea
was "mainly just getting out
there and marketing myself,''
Bohlin said.
Similarly, senior Eukydi
s
Webb had his resume in hand at
the conference
.
Having previ-
ously atte
n
ded two conferences,
the sports communication major
said that he hadn't done too
much prior to coming that day
aside
from
consuJting with some
of his professors.
"I bought

" Webb
said.
Opportunities offered
for abroad experience
These programs
run
during the
breaks
,
such as winter break
or
s
pring
break.
and last two weeks.
The programs vary and offer
opportunities to students of any
major. They range
from
studying
Shakespeare in England to fash-
ion in Southeast Asia to religion
in Berlin and Prague.
Trisha Seminara helped
run
the
abroad fair as a campus recrui
t
er
for the Marist Abroad office. The
senior commented on the popu-
larity and number of short tenn
programs.
"Kids are afraid of spending
an
entire semester abroad," said
Seminara. "Three
m
onths
~ms
like such a long time. Of course
,
it isn't when you are there.
"
"
It
'
s good for peop
l
e on the
fence. They use the short tenn
programs to decide. It offers
chances
.
Like Tu
n
isia
.
Who
wo
u
ld ever consider going to
Tunisia at first? They have great
professors who
run
great pro-
grams," said Seminara.
The Marist Abroad website has
infonnatio
n
about the various
programs it offers
for
any stu-
d
ent who missed the fair and
co
n
s
i
ders going abroad. Outlines
of both semester/year long pro-
grams as well as the two week
ones
are
p
os
t
ed
on
l
ine
.
App
li
cations
are
also ava
i
lable.
Those interested need only to
take the first step on their jour-
ney.
Keeler gave
a
piece of advice
for those who plan to travel
abroad or
think
about
it.
'
'It's
what you make ofit," he said
.
Toastmasters Club
aims for official status
Toastmasters' meetings
include open discussio
n
s that
lead to short
,
five minute speech-
es by the students that are evalu-
ated by experienced professors.
Veteran members like
Tim
end
up giving speeches tha
t
last
about twelve minutes. That kind
of communication
exercise
forces
speakers to prepare,
think
about, and deliver speeches on
a
constant basis. Johansen empha-
sized that the experience and
"
comfort level" that comes from
so much practice is inva
l
uab
l
e.
The club hopes to be affiliated
with the school by the end of this
semester, but it might not be offi-
cial until the spring
.
The added
support and funding by the
school will undoubtedly help
Toa
s
tmasters to expand and draw
more interest. I
t
may only have a
small number of members right
now, but as many
as
thirty stu-
dents have shown up at regular
meetings.
..
A lot of people came and fell
in love with it, .. Johansen said.
Even tho
u
gh those students•
have yet to join, the club hopes
that affiliation with the school
will
help
change
that.
Toastmasters holds meetings
every other Wednesday at

Growing up in today's world,
medicine seems to rapidly
be
changing, and expanding
with
the addition of newer and more
improved remedial and techno-
logical innovations. When it
comes to alternative treatments
such as acupuncture though, it's
what's old, not what's new, that
has become "the talk of the
town."
Acupuncture was devel

by
the Chinese over 7,000
years ago.
It
can
be defined by
Chiba Woo
,
a well known and
highly accredited acupunctur-
ist, as "a health science which is
used to successfully treat
both
pain and dysfunction in the
body." Exactly how does
acupuncture work? "Waterville
Acupuncture"
defines
the
process as the insertion of fine
needles into the
body at specif-
ic points to regulate its func--
tioning, Each sec

The most wonderful times of the year

Jewish holidays in my family are
times
where we can
all
get together, share some traditional food of
our religious faith and sit around and
listen
to stories about the lives of some of some extremely fasci-
nating people.
My grandmother has a tattooed
number
on her arm and I was always curious of what it was when I
was a young girl. I asked
her
once and she
told me
it was
her phone
number. I tried to call it,
but it did-
n't work. As I got older, I learned that
the
phone number on her arm was not really a phone number, but
a branded tattoo from a concentration camp from World War II. These tattoos were used
to
categorize and
identify everyone
in
the camps.
My grandparents, Frieda and David Singer, his brothers
Harry
and Paul Singer and my great grand-
mother, Sarah Singer, lived through the brutal
Holocaust.
I glance around the table as we eat
dinner
on
the high holidays and can't

College
is really funny
.
Remember
when you
were a
freshman and had to plan your
schedule
for the first time?
"Wow
I can take ballet and pher
tography and painting!" Yeah,
college is funny.
With only three
semeste
rs left
at
Marist
,
1 have discovered that
I will barely complete all of my
required courses by May 2008.
For instance,
journalism majors
can choose from
a
var
iety
of
electives
like "Sex in the Media"
and "Photojournalism."
1 sat
down
.
and after scrolling
through
the course
catalog
(beca
use
apparently
we're
saving
trees and
not printing hard copies any-
more), I jotted down about eight
or
nine communications elec-
tive
s
that l wanted to register for.
But
then Marist beat me with the
rea
li
ty stick
because none of
those electives are being
offered
next semester. Not even one.
So when I threw
up
my hands
in frustration and started scream-
ing,
"Why,
God, Why?" my
roommate, also a COM major,
told me to get a grip and found
one elective that fit into my
schedule and is offered in the
spring.
But it still leaves an
unsettling feeling in my
stomach
knowing that if I don't choose
the right classes during the right
semesters, I could
be
completely
screwed.
It also doesn't help that my
advisor was suddenly changed.
Sure,
sw
it
chi
ng
advisors is okay
when you
're
a freshman and
tak·
ing core courses, but junior year?
When
I
thought that maybe this
was a punishment for COM
stu•
dents for choosing an unrealiable
major, other juniors were finding
themselves in the
same situation.
Psych/special
ed
ucation
majors
are
required
to have Wednesdays
free, so they
can observe
at local
schools
to
prepare
for student
teaching. But one
student was
stresse
d
over the
fact
that
on two
sections were
available
and fit
her
sc

she
needed to take next
semester.
If
I'm not mistaken, there are
a
lot
of psych/specual
education
majors
,
and I'm
sure a lot
are
also juniors.
So
,
what's the deal Marist?
ls
this a test for the real world? Is
Dennis Murray hiding in his
office, laughing himself
silly
to
the
sound of
my
dreams
being
shattered?
Okay
,
that was
a
little
extreme,
but if
a

what's
the point
of

them
at all? They

So, Marist,

Kenworthy
makes school history with thousandth kill
By
JOSEPH
FERRARY
Staff Writer
Last
Wednesday night on the
McCann Field House floor, his-
tory was made
yet
again.
ln a match against rival Siena,
senior outside hitter Jaime
Kenworthy became the first
player in the history of the
women's volleyball program to
record 1,000 kills.
Kenworthy was excited and
surprised that she was the first
player in 25 plus years
to
reach
1,000 kills.
"It
was a pretty amazing feel-
ing," Kenworthy said.
"I
knew
I
had
become the all•time kil"s
leader,
but
I
was
reall
y surp
ri
sed
to
learn
that nobody else has hit
1,000 kills before. It was pretty
surrea
l."
This opportunity to make histo-
ry with the Red Foxes might not
have come if Kenworthy
did
not
make the right choice
coming
out of high school.
While attending Cardinal
O'Hara High School, Kenworthy
was a two•sport star. She was
involved with the basketball
team
as well as being a Second-
Team All.State selection for vol•
leyball.
For Kenworthy, the decision to
play volleyball at the next level
was an easy decision.
"In
addition to being on my
high school volleyball team,
I
senior
Jaime Kenworthy notched
her
1,000th
career

Synergy,"
Kenworthy
said.
"Since I was always around the
sport it was a pretty
easy
deci•
sion. Ptus,
I
had a lot more
fun
playing
volleyball
than
I
did
playing basketball."
However, more than one col•
lege was
interested
in
the servic•
es of the 5'9" outside hitter from
Ashton, Pa.
Aside from Marist
,
Kenworthy
was recruited by two members of
the Colonial Athletic Association
(CAA), George Mason and
Drexel, but Kenworthy fell in
love
with Marist.
"When
I
came here on an offi~
cial visit,
I
had a great time,"
Kenworthy said.
"The
campus
was beautiful, the college had the
major
I
wanted, and the girls on
the volleyball team were amaz-
ing."
During her time as a Red Fox,
Kenworthy has faced some
adversity on the court. One of
the main problems was the fact
that the volleyball team changed
coaches evecy
year,
and each
season a new team dynamic
formed.
As seniors graduated and fresh-
man
stepped into their roles,
Kenworthy remained focused on
improving her skills and fanning
a new team dynamic in practice.
Another disadvantage
Kenworthy had was her lack of
size. She was never the tallest
person on
the
team, but that did
not stop her from becoming such
an offensive threat.
Kenworthy used her other
skills to help make up for her
lack of height.
•·clearly
I
am not the tallest
person on the team and
I
don't
look like the
strongest
player
either,"
Kenworthy said.
"I
rely
mostly on my vertical jump and
I
pack a lot of power into my hits,
which has allowed me to record
so many kills."
Kenworthy
also
dealt with a
coaching change for the first
time in her four years at Marist,
but new head coach Tim Hanna
said he was excited to have a
player like her on the team.
"She is such a dynamic ath-
lete," he said.
"She
is an explo-
sive player and this program
needs people like Jaime on the
team."
Coach Hanna also credits
Kenworthy's mainstay in the
lineup to her success on the
court.
"Ever
since she stepped foot at
Marist, she has always been on
the court and around the ball,
which has allowed her the oppor~
tunity to get kills," he said.
In addition to becoming the
first to 1,000 kills, Kenworthy
holds
single•game
records
in
kills with 28 and attacks with 63.'
Kenworthy and the Marist
Volleyball team will be back in
action this Saturday as they trav-
el to Connecticut to take on
Metro
Atlantic

Women's soccer struggles in second half, fails to preserve lead against Manhattan
By
GREG
HRINYA
Staff Writer
The Marist Red Foxes' second
half
struggles continue as they
were
defeated
Sunday 3-1 by the
Manhattan Jaspers.
Maristjurnped out to a
1-0
lead
on a Kristen Leonhard goal in the
31st minute, but
it
was short.-
lived as Manhattan answered
right back to begin the second
half.
Manhattan
freshman, Alexandra
Konneker,
tied the game in the
49th minute when her shot from
inside the box beat Marist goal-
keeper Caitlin Nazarechuk.
Marist would then remove
From Page Ten
Nazarechuk and
replace
her with
freshman Kristen Aliperti.
Head coach Elizabeth Roper
said the move was due to a
lin-
gering
injury
that Nazarechuk
has been fighting.
"Caitlin was injured and not
playing at
I
00
per cent," Roper
said.
"We put in freshman
Kristen Aliperti, and she has
been improving.
•
It's nice to have
that extra support back there
when our other goalies are
down."
Marist has also been without
sophomore goalkeeper Anna
Case, who has a tom
ligament in
her hand. She
is
current.Jy await-
ing
medical
approval to return to
action.
The score remained tied at I
until the 83rd minute when
Manhattan midfielder Courtney
McMahon
beat
Kristen Aliperti
for what would prove to be the
game winner.
Manhattan's Kimarie Balistierri
would tack on an insurance goal
in the 88th minute to seal the vie!
tory for the Jaspers.
The last
IO
minutes of the game
pl'oved to be the Red Foxes'
downfall once again as they let
another Metro Atlantic Athletic
Conference (MAAC) game slip
away.
After controlling play for the
first
half and out-shooting
Manhattan by a considerable
margin, a second half let-down
contributed to the loss.
"Our mindset was that we
wanted to dictate the game in the
second half, but we gave
Manhattan momentum when
they scored early," Roper said.
"We weren't as strong or as con-
fident in the second half."
Marist held a
17-11
shot advan-
tage for the game and a 14-5 shot
advantage in the first half.
Coach Roper said that Manhattan
goalie Alicia
Defino kept
Manhattan
alive
in
the first half
when Marist controlled the play.
"The keeper made some great
saves," Roper said.
''We
left
some opportunities out there but
felt we could keep it going in the
second half."
Despite the loss, the Red Foxes
gear up for another
in-conference
game when they host Rider on
Friday night at 7 p.m.
Coach Roper believes that if
the team can remain focused and
capitalize on some of its early
opportunities then they are still
in it.
"We have some tough competi-
tion ahead of us, but a
lot
of
teams have tied so we are still in
it," Roper said. ""We just need to
focus on what we need to do to

Marist will also
look
to
its
sen-
iors and
team
leaders to help
them rebound from the
tough
start in
MAAC
play.
"We have the character on this
team to not give up in the face of
adversity," Roper said. "We will
look to the seniors and the lead-
ers on this team to get things
done."
The Red Fox players also know
that if they play to their potential
for the
full
90 minutes then they
are not out of it.
"We beat a strong opponent
in
Brown at the beginning of the
season, so anything can happen
in the
5
remaining MAAC games
we have," Roper said.
The 3-9 Marist Red Foxes
will
host the
3-7-1
Rider Broncs on
Friday night at 7 p.m where they
look
to
improve upon their 1-3
conference schedule.

Hansen said that the offense
went into the game with a lot of

goals.

Coach Parady credited the

for
doing an excellent
job moving the football and con-
verting yardage into points.
''We came out and scored on
our first six possessions offen-
sively," he said. "Any time you're
able to do that you gain the
momentum of the football game.
We established the line of scrim-

Marist College's major playing
field, LeonidoffField, is current-

going through a major Face

The fie

East Rutherford, N.J. The play-
ing surface will be the last ingre-
dient to the completion of the
field.
Tim Heneghan, assistant athlet-
ic directo
r
for facilities and oper-
ations, said that there has been
substantial progress in the con-
struction of Leonindoff Stadium.
"All

i
d. "We
are begin

ing to assemble the

and-
scaping, built a construct
i
on
vehic

e entrance in the northeast
comer, and Tuesday, we began
good i
n
dication of how it will
look when it is completed.
"The student body will be able
to see the framework of the new
stadium," be said. "This will
be
a
multi-purpose field that will
cove
r
the whole gamut of sports,
including club and intramural
sports.
It
will serve not only the
student athletes but the student
body as well."
Before the field turf is installed,
a circula
r
sidewalk will be
i
nstalled around the entire com-
plex. Landscaping will surrowid

and
an area for lawn
seating will
be
on the west end,

To build the

Marist stone, the same stone on
the Greystone bui
