UN launches campaign to stop abuse of immigrants
By
JUSTIN CALDERON
·
Foreign
Correspondent
Our world is
nuly
becoming an
international community with
borderless societies, but this
heavy increase in migration has
led
to many questions and safety
issues involving the poor, war
refugees, and the general sancti-
ty
of humanity.
The United
Nations
Population
Fund
(UNFPA) commenced its launch
in Bangkok on September 6 out-
lining the state of women
migrants in developing coun-
tries. These meetings concluded
at the United Nations in New
York on September 15.
Irena Vojackova-Sollorano
,
a
Regional Representative for
UNFPA said, "Since the nineties
we have had the biggest migra-
tion flow the world has ever
seen." This lowering of interna-
tional borders has been an
empowering
experience
for
women but in the search for jobs
and a common living some end
up
in
the hands of sex traffickers
and con-men.
Mr. G Giridhar,
the
UNFPA
Represenative
,
in charge of
~iland said,
"
Thailand is both
a major sending and receiving
country for migrants.'' The main
concern is not the fact that
migration is heavy
,
but that
women
are movina around at
much younger ages in search of
jobs abroad only to discover they
have
been
tricked into low
pay-
ing jobs; the majority
being
sex
workers.
Burmese, Laotian, and
Cambodian people have all made
large
migrations
into
the
Thailand the past decade in
search of jobs and
as
a means to
support their struggling families
at home.
Because migrants commonly
live outside the mainstream of
society it is hard to track them
and their children making the
fight to end sex trafficking an
almost implausible feat

said,
'
'There is a great need for
regional
collaboration."
Unfortunately governments such
as Myanmar aren't interested in
women trafficking as much as
drugs and bombs so the safety of
migrant women is severely under
looked.

College Activities staff had to
pull up a few more chairs on
Monday night as students
crammed into the PAR for the
Student
Government
Association's Speech Night. As
the hour drew nearer to the
9:30
start, some cp.ndidates pilced
around
,
practicing their speeches
one final time. Students in the
audience played cheerleaders
,
toting
signs urging people to
vote for their favorites.
When it was quiet enough,
event coordinator Stephanie
Venezia introduced the first
can-
didate and reminded people to
stay out of the isles so that
MCTV could get
a
good shot of
the stage and that cheering
should
be
kept to a minimum
until
after
the
speeches.
However
,
there
are
always those
people in the crowd that don't
hold their applause to the end.
The first candidate to speak
was Alyssa Oxford
,
running
uncontested for vice president of
the senior class.
Oxford has

year at Marist. She also helped

Security Briefs
Only steal a golf cart if you
know how to drive a golf cart
By ANDREW MOLL
Leader
in homeland
security
So, this week I will be
bringing you the week that
was in M8.rist security, in an
effort
to show students the
implications of their actions,
and to curb any inappropri-
ate behavior on campus.
That, plus it seems like an
easy way to get myself some
priority poin,s. That's good
too.
A quick note from assis-
tant director for Safety and
Security, Al Abdelrahman:
Marist Security is getting
high-tech, using a hand-held
operation to check parking
permits on cars. Just a
reminder to those of you
looking to buck the parking
system.

Leo
A student set off a fire alarm
in Leo Hall, after being
unable to successfully cook
chicken noodle soup in a
microwave. As somt of
,,.
you
may well know, Leo has a
storied history of c(using
the fire alarm to go off, but
most of the time, it's
'
due to
the complicated directions
on how to make popcorn.
Nice to see the new fresh-
men are branching out into
other areas.
9/14 -
Upper West Cedar
Everyone's worst nightmare:
In Upper West, a resident
acci•dentaily broke off the
handle to a shut-off sink.
The
result?
Hot water shoot-
ing straight up
into
the air,
hitting the ceiling
,
and set-
ting the fire alarm off.
What
goes' on
in
one's mind when
they
see something
like
that? Fear? Astonishment?
Nervous laughter?
If
that
happened to me,
I
think
I
would probably just walk
away like nothing
happened,
then blame my roommate for
being drunk and breaking
the sink. And since the for-
mer may very well be true,
then we all can assume
the
latter
actually
happened.

Cafeteria
In the dining
hall
,
two
cere-
al
dispensers were taken
from their obviously well-
secured place on the wall,
promptly fell to the floor,
causing vast amounts of
cereal to spill.
I think this is
a signifier of the downfall of
the youth of America. That,
or Panic! At The Disco. It's
one or the other, really.
9/14
On the south side of campus,
a student
was
seen returning
to their dorm at around 6
p.m.,
sporting a backpack,
and
obviously
returning
from
a
study session in the
library.
Officers decided to
stop the student, because
there seemed to be can-
shaped items in his back-
pack. Lo and
behold,
there
were cans of beer in there.
Way to
be
discreet. Next
time you
might
as well
have
a big sandwich board that
says "I
HAVE BEER!"
We
can only hope it wasn't the
sweet nectar of Busch that
was taken away.

And finally, a story of pure

Subjective reporting of Muslims takes hold in recent news
By
DANIEL
BLACK
Staff
Writer
A
significant
number oflslamic
communities around the world
became displeased
with
Pope
Benedict
XVI after the Godly
man quoted
some "obscure
medieval
quotation" as described
by
Times Online, a UK-based
online news source.
Islamic
radicaJs are quoted
extensively
in
this article, and
many
others, saying very nasty
things: breaking the
cross,
spilling wine, attacking the
man
that
"worships
the
cross" (the
Pope,
that is),
"Islam
or
death".
Seriously,
these enemies of The
Pope
sound absolutely out of
control.
I
have kept
my
eyes on
the internet news feeds most of
Monday morning; the photo-
graphs pour
in, the words of
angry
Muslims are amplified
through
repetition, the anti-west-
ern
sentiments
are
fermenting
and
seem right about ready
to
boil over.

reading the first
couple
of
arti-
cles,
I
became curious of what
exactly it was
the
Pope
had
said.
Must've been rather insensitive,
I
suppose, heavily
laden with
juicy drama.
As
I
searched the
different
sources, however,
I
became disappointed to find that
no reporter felt it necessary to
apologizing for.
A follow-up speech from the
Pope wherein
he
states
"I hope
that
this serves
to appease
hearts
and to clarify
the true meaning
of
my
address, which in its
totality
was and is
an
invitation
to
frank
and sincere
dialogue,
with
great
mutual respect." appears in over
a half dozen sources of the
thirty
odd articles I skimmed ttying to
find the "obscure

If

I
had the
Opportunity
to i
n
terview Hallie Waxman, the
bass player of "Choose," a rock
band who re<;:ently
pl
ayed the
club. The band started with Jen,
a
studio p
r
oduction major, who
teaches gu
i
tar at a rock summer
camp. The band is roun
d
ed out
with two guys, Mike and Steve,
who play the guitar and drums
respectively. The band was psy-
ched for their gig at
CBGB.
Hallie
said
it was
a,
"Pretty
cool place. I never though
t
I'd
get to play there."
Despite
its'
r
ock roya
l
ty status,
the club still has some of the grit-
ty punk rock feel it held
in
the
70s. The club has no official
backstage and the bands put all
their gear in a comer until they
"grab
the gear and go."
"We had someone
watch
our
stuff," Waxman said. He heard
reports that
equipment
is some-
times
stolen
at the c
l
ub. These
rough-n-tumble ways may deter
those less committed to the
voracity
of rock.
Luckily,

Organ donor controversy fueled by growing need
By
ALI
SO
N
BO
YL
E
Staff Writer
The youth of America often
seem uninfonned or, rather, mis-
informed about dozens of topics
that could potentially affect their
lives greatly. Organ and tissue
donation is starting to gather the
attention of millions of people in
the United States, and is definite-
ly
one that
young adults need to
be
educated about. For many,
their knowl-edge of organ dona-
tion goes no further than some
fine print on their driver's
l
icense, but surrounding that
simplistic outlook, is an array of
misconceplions,
controversy,
and anger that' continue
to
cau,!ie
an ongoing debate.
The process of becoming an
organ donor in The United States
has become increasingly easier
in the recent years, as an
anempt
to attract contributors, and to fill
the needs of a rising number of
people on the national transplant
waiting list. According to Donate
By
SARAH GUNNER
Staff Writer
Life, the official US Government
web site for tissue and organ
donation transplantation, the
process can differ depending on
which state you reside in. but for
the most part consists of simply
downloading or requesting a
donor card, saying yes to dona-
tion on your driver's license,
signing up with your states donor
registry (ifit has one) and finally
discussing your decision with
your family.
Donate Life said there is more
than 91,000 men, women, and
children currently awaiting
life-
saving
transplants, and that
every 12 minutes another name
is added. In addition to that,
an
average of
18
people die every
day from the lack of availab
l
e
organs for transp
l
ant. Tangled up
in all of those statistics, one can
find dozens of heart warming
stories as well, that describe the
positive and life saving experi-
ences that an individual had
because
an
organ was donated.
The story of Michael Rhodes, a
heart transp
l
ant recipient, is one
that cou
l
d potentially swing a
person who is on the fence
towards the "organ giving side."
Michael was
born
with a heart
defect cal
l
ed aortic stenosis, and
for 33 years of his life, he strug-
gled through surgeries and an
unknown future. He finally
received a heart transplant, now
lives an extreme
l
y happy life and
rece
n
tly just compe
t
ed in the
Transplant Games in Minnesota,
where organ and tissue recipients
can show off their newly found
health. Michael took home the
bronze tbere, and on the day of
the sW'gery, took home
a
com-
plete
l
y. new life. Many take
Michael's story along with others
as a very strong reason why
he/she shou
l
d donate. Samant
h
a
Kelly, a freshman here at Marist
college, when asked her feelings

"Any time you
lose
an athlete
like
Bo, it's going
to
affect
us
a
little," Parady
said. "But every
one else has got
to
rally around
it
a little. And everyone
has
to play
at
a
higher
level. We have to play
with the people that we have out
there,
and
I
think our guys who
are
stepping in
did
a decent job
with it."
Parady said that, to its' credit,
Wagner played very well, and
were very opportunistic on
defense.
"We played
a
very good
Wagner football team here
tonight
,
"
Parady
said. "And
when you give
a
team
the
oppor-
tunities like we did, they gained
the momentum,
and from
there
they took it."
Freshmen
defensive lineman
Dan Sullivan
,
who was
honored
as Metro Atlantic Athletic
Conference
(MAAC)
rookie
of
the week, said
that
defensively,
Marist
had
a
difficult
time
because they were
not
mentally
prepared.
"We have to work harder in
practice and we're going to have
to prepare
better for these kinds
of games
,
" Sullivan said. "You
know mentally
,
J think that's
where we
lost
most of
it."
Parady did not
fault the defense
entirel
y,
h
o
we
v
e
r,
as field
po
~i-
tion, and time of possession did
not help its cause.
"We can't put the defense in the
position that we
put
them in
tonight. We can't do that to them,
with the field position and
turnovers and leaving them on
the
field," Parady said. "We need
to
be more consistent with every-
thing
we
have
in our whole
team."
