Networking plays crucial role
in preparing for future career
By
Audrey Roff
,
Staff Writer
We've
all
heard about network-
ing,
and not just the computer
kind. We know that networking
~Jl
help
us meet important peo-
ple
and eventually obtain fabu-
lous
jobs. But how exactly do
you go
about the nettvorking
process?
Career networking is about
meeting people and building
relationships
to assist with your
educational planning and career
aspirations.
Networking enables
you to
gain knowledge and intro-
ductions.
I! can provide you
with
assistance in any stage of
your career;
however, studies
show that
60
to
90
percent of
j_obs are
found through friends
,
relatives, and direct contacts.
One of the
common miscon-
ceptions
about
networking
is
that
simply meeting someone
counts
as
a networking relation-
ship.
In terms of your future,
you
are
looking
to establish rela-
tionships, not mereJ,r contacts.
Contacts
are
something that can
be
established immediately and
kept
for a short period of time,
but relationships
are built over
time and
can help you in the
future. Follow-ups anch:ontinu-
ing contacts will foster this rela-
tionship and cause the person to
remember you.
But how do you know who
to
include in your. career network?
Your network can include any-
one who can help you with a job
search or any aspect of your
career
.
This can include past and
present co-workers, bosses, and
friends with similar interests,
colleagues from
business
associ-
ations, members of the Marist
Alumni
Career
Network
(www.marist.edu/alumni/career.
html), or people that you have
met online through networking
services. You can also utilize
friends, family, and neighbQt's
who may have helpful connec-
tions.
Although networking events
are a great place
to meet
people,
and establish .future relation-
ships
,
every situation where you
interact with others is an oppor-
tunity for networking. Career
networking shoulq be part of
your daily work, as well as
career-related activities. When
you meet people
,
the objective is
not to sell yourself
,
but to com-
municate, "what I can do for
you," as well as "what you can
do for me." You need .to ask
questions and listen for answers.
Building
the
relatiopship
requires i~tegrity, credibility,
and trust.
In order
to
truly benefit from
networking, there are many tips
that experts suggest. First, with-
out "selling yourself," prepare a
short speech that will tell some-
one all you want them to know
about you in less than thirty sec-
onds.
It should tell who you are,
what you do, and what you're
looking for. Use your existing
ties through friends, family, and
colleagues in order to establish
new contacts. Attend network-
ing events that are specifically
focused
on
the field that you are
interested in. Show interest in
the person that you are talking
to, and don't directly ask for a
job.
Remember
to follow
up
with
the person you met, and d0n't be
selfish. Also, don't abuse the
relationship by always calling
the person asking for a favor.
Always maintain your networks
even if you are not looking for a
job at the time. You never know
when you may need someone
within your
network.
And since
the majority of jobs are unpub-
lished, you could always hear of
an exciting opportunity.

of

many
of
the international

been appreciated
and essential. Eventually,
however, each of those

move on
to

needs and we are trying
to focus
on what will remain
once most of them have left

Thank you once again for
your generous

Marist bands compete in very close' Battle'
By
KERRI MARKS
Circle Contributor
Despite one
snapped string
and
one disqualification, the Marist
College
"Battle

brought a high level of competi-
tion to entertain the crowd as
area.
The
well-received

the

that
would

Their set,

The Marist College Battle of the Bands showcased the talent of seven stu-
dent musical groups In the cabaret dining area on March 10. Students
performed to a packed crowd, bringing fans together In the name of
music.
fans packed themselves into the timed and
judged by
members of
Marist College Cabaret dining the
student government and fac-
ulty, included two original songs
and one cover song
that
eventu-
ally earned them a third place
finish in the contest.
Battle participant
Junior Carly
Blackmon
of Impulse said she
thought the1e was a good match
up between the talents of
.
each
band.
"It was definitely a close
competition," said Blackmon.
"We had a
bunch
of good bands
that
were very well matched. I
· think everyone put on
a
good
performance."
Ingrid;
wbo was the
second
of the seven
bands
to
'
perform,
experienced some minor: com-
plications that took a toll on
their
performance
time.
During
their first song a band
member snapped a string and
used several of their perform-
ance minutes to find
a
new one
and restring
the
guitar.
The focus of entertainment
switched from the stage to the
crowd after Middleway's slow
protest song.
It
was then
that
several
enthusiastic
males
stood up and took off their
shirts to reveal messages writ-
ten on their chests in support of
the
band.
Middleway lead singer, sopho-•
more Rob Colletti, said that he
was pleased with his
band's
performance since it was the
first time they had done a show
of this nature.
"It was the first time we
did
a
show where we were all
plugged in
and full blast like
that," said Colletti. "So
I
think
for us
it was a pretty good
show
...
It was abo~ getting
our
first show under our
belt
and
getting
our name
out there."
Blackman's
band, Impulse,
was the runner
up
in the compe-
tition and also
the
only
band to
fit five songs into their allowed
time. Impulse, the only band
in
the competition with a female
lead
sing~r,
mimics
of the
sound of Evanescence. They
started off their set with their
newest original song "I'm
down" which received great
support from the crowd.
Blackmon
stated that she was
vecy happy with the perfonn-
ance that her own
band
put on
as well as the state of her band
right now.
"I was very pleased, we had a
good
performanco,1'
said
Blackmon.
"We're getting clos-
er and closer to each other as a
banA and I
think
it's-really start-
ing to show our potential."

could be considered the album's
single, serving as a definite con-
trast to the "in your face" intensi-

epic, incorporating a solo trum-

'L'Via

terrific third tract.: building on
the first two. Done almost com-
pletely in Spanish, this song
makes a lyrical analysis

rather
difficult for me, but I'll be hon-
est", it sounds really cool. The
song goes between driving rock
parts and slower samba parts and
is over
12
minutes long,

there were more opportunities on

By DREW BUDD
Staff Writer
The Red Foxes
(5 - 9) softball
team swept their
non-confer-
ence
doubleheader
against
George Washington University
(5 - 15) this past week at the
GWU Mount
Vernon
Softball
Field in Washington D.C.
It
was their first sweep since
May 3, 2003, when they defeat-
ed Niagara.
Marist got off to a quick 1 -

when senior
co-captai11
CF
Allison Bartley drove in junior

Chrystine
McHugh with a
single
to left field.
In the top of the fourth,
Bartley delivered with another
single and would
eventually
come around to score on a two-
run
·
home run that was crushed
over the right field wall by
sophomore,
right
fielder
Lyndsay Ward.
It
was Ward's
first home run of the season and
the
second
of her career.
With the Red Foxes in front 3
- 1 after four innings, they
would seal the deal with a three
runs m
the fifth inning.
McHugh led off with a double
and freshman first baseman
Annie Castellano drove her in
with an RBI single. Castellano
would later score on a single by
junior C Jasmery Polanco's dou-=
ble.
Later that inning, Bartley
would come around to score to
give Marist a 6 - 1 lead after five
innings.
The Red Foxes continued their
offensive brilliance with
six
more runs. Polanco and junior
shortstop Katie Eskin connected
on two-run
scoring

doubles,
where Polanco connected in the
sixth and

onslaught was just too much for

Freshman starting pitcher

great game, allowing just two

outs
fot
the complete game win.
Though Marist did allow five
lead when Castellano hit a sacri-
fice fly that scored
McHugh.
They scored earlier on a single
by Jakobsen, who would even-
tually score on an error by
George Washington's second
baseman Lisa Cohen. Jacobsen
ended the day the proud owner
of a six-game hitting streak.
The Colonials
'
tied the game in
the bottom of the third, but the
Red Foxes would regain the
lead in the fourth when George
Washington's sophomore short-
stop Elana Meyers made con-
secutive errors, which allowed
Ward to reach base and eventu-
ally score.
Marist added insurance runs
with another sac
fly
by
Castellano in the fifth and an
RBI single by freshmen starting
pitcher Kristen Merlino.
The Colonials made a strong
comeback in the sixth when
freshmen center fielder Jackie
Yaniga hit an RBI double, fol-
lowed by a run-scoring single
by freshmen third baseman
Caroline Howe. This brought
the score to 5 -
4.
With George Washington
threatening, Marist
brought
Rigos i~ to shut the door and the
Red Foxes went on to squeak
past the Colonials
5 -

preserv-
ing the sweep of the double-
header.
Merlino threw five-plus
innings,
allowing three runs on
six hits, earning her first career
win.
Rigos picked up her first
career save and the first save for
Marist this season.

Staff Writer
The Marist men's lacrosse team
won a well-fought battle with St.
Joseph's on Mar. 19 in their con-.
ference opener.
The 6-5
victory
jn Philadelphia
showcased
the skills of many of
the Red Foxes. The team has tal-
ent at each grade level and every-
one came out to play versus the
Hawks.
Each goal was scored by a dif-
ferent Red Fox. Marist opened
up very strongly in the first quar-
ter, leaving it with a 2-0 lead off
goals from junior midfielder Bill
Duerr and sophomore midfielder
Mike McGuire.
Duerr now leads the team in
goals with seven o~ the season.
After giving up two goals in the
second quarter,
juniof

Andrew Walsh notched a goal
before halftime to give the Red
Foxes a 3-2 lean at the intermis-
sion.
Entering
the third period with
the lead and the last
goal,
the
Red Foxes were carrying all of
the momentum. Although this
momentum did not show when

UC

their way to a Marist rout.
However, the Red Foxes came

Katie McMahon led the Aggies
in scoring, where she scored five
goals overall and tallied one
assist.

three of their first six
goals, and two of the clinching
goals.
Lee scored three goals along
\\'ith
an
as!list.
whHe
Katie
McGovern had two goals and
two asgjsts for the Aggies.
For the Red Foxes, the loss has
some positive spots with the
effort from Diener; who now has
21 goals on the season. The
freshman already has one Metro
Atlantic Athletic Conference
(MAAC) Rookie of the Week
title under her belt, and another
is sure to come.
Diener
scored seven goals
against St. Mary's in the team's
previous contest, which was also
a loss.
In fact, the Red Foxes ended a
West Coast trip at 0-3 losing to
Oregon as well.
The Red Foxes will oppose
MAAC rival Fairfield Apr. 2 in
their home opener, hoping to
gain their second win of the sea-
son.
