Telephone Co. strike has in-
definitely delayed phone installa-
tion and created lines for pay
phones.
With no immediate end to the
strike in sight, college officials are
working with phone representatives
on the following measures to help
alleviate the campus phone crunch:
-Resident assistants in Cham-
pagnat Hall, the only dorm equip-
ped with phone jacks, are working
with the Housing Office to compile
a list of students interested in
phone service. The list, in room
order, will be submitted to the
phone company.

The college released the

phone company representatives,
enabling them to determine the
bedrooms of those students in-
terested in installation.
-
The college mailed students
phone request forms with their
housing 35$ignments.
Housing
also
encouraged
.
students to determine the phone
number previously used in the
room or. house. The phone com-
pany said this eliminates a trip to
campus.
But students are still finding it
difficult to reach out and touch
someQne.
,
For Suzanne Jelinek, a junior
special education major, a call to
mom meant a 30-minute wait for
the only pay phone outside the C
section of the townhouses.
.
Charnpagnat residents aren't fin-
ding it any easier.
Sophomore Eric Birt:nbaum
complained it was impossible to
find a free phone. "The girls are
always on it with their long-
distance boyfriends." he said.
"Then,
if
you get lucky and final-
ly get one (a phone), there's no
privacy; you can•t

But junior Marlon Hosang said

American frivolity, especially American music and
American fashion.
"They wanted to trade anything for American
clothes," McQuillin said. Traders ripped through the

Soviet fashions, she said.
So McQuillin and O'Sullivan returned to America

said.

Gerberich said fiber optic cables
to Champagnat Hall should be in
place by mid-October and the col-
lege plans to put up to three ter-
minals in study rooms.
The computer link, which was
originally planned to start in 1990,
will

also reach the library, other
residence halls ahd the new

when
completed.
The study is a $10 million ven-
ture between IBM and Marist.
Gerberich,
a former
IBM
employee, said IBM is striving to
make its computers "user friend-
ly" for those not familiar with the
technology. making Marist a useful
testing ground.
The Marist Computer Center
gives quarterly "human factor"
reports on which computer func-
tions are comfortable and which
are too complex.
Students are also testing a
smaller computer, the 93-70, pro-

It worked
after all
It didn't rain.
After all the concern that .an outdoor commencement would
be a disaster if the clouds opened up, sunny skies and temperatures
in the. 90s made the question moot.
!
But credit for the· success of Marist's first outdoor commence-
ment in nearly a decade belongs to the people wl;10
put_ it together,
not a nice day. The event was so well-planned. that fain would
have dampened only the ground, not the spirits of those involved ..
1First, credit must go to the officers of the class of· 1989. ~any
classes before them talked about wanting an outdoor graduation
to avoid the limited seating in the Mccann Center. But Jonathan
Urban, president of the class of 1989, and his staff did something
about it. They organized class opinion to make their wishes clear
to the administration. •
Credit must also go to college administrators who accom-
modated the wishes of the seniors. Though the Commencement
Committee let it be known that it did not recommend an outdoor
graduation, Chairperson Donna Berger and the rest of the com-
mittee worked as if an outdoor commencement were their own
idea. Their dedication made the parking lot of the Lowell Thomas
Communications Center - adjacent rock pile and all - an elegant
and attractive place for the ceremony.
Finally, the seniors conducted themselves with the dignity that
should.be expected from Marist graduates, avoiding the previous
year's graduation debacle. Maybe the graduates' conduct stemmed
from maturity and respect, and not from the good behavior pledge ·
that seniors were forced to sign before they received their caps
and gowns.
Probably the most encouraging aspect of the 1989 Commence-
ment was that it proved successful the joint effort made between
the student body and the administration. Both sides were willing
to listen to each· other and both sides were willing to work with
• each other.
i
Last year's Commencement showed that outdoor graduations
and cooperation between students and administration are possi-
ble and can produce impressive results. It would be nice to see
more of both.

. Tho~ of .us who traveled the
party, scene last weekend noticed
that \ the City of Poughkeepsie
Police Department has taken a very
keen\ interest in how Marist
students spend their spare time. I'm
sure 'that all present would have
commended them on their extreme-
ly thorough performance
in
preventing Marist students from
gathering and having fun over a
few beers.
'
Some would say, "Well,
students under 21 were drinking
beer." In reply, yes, sometimes
that is true. But another issue is
involved.
Someone, somewhere, has
. screwed llp fundamental priorities
of law enforcement. The Friday
night party I attended was visited
by four. squad cars and a paddy .
wagon containing ·more police than
I have ever. personally seen at one
time.I decided that this was an op-
portune time to leave
this
party and
drove off into Poughkeepsie.
At the first red light I hit, I was
politely asked if I wished to pur-
chase cocaine, crack, "sheets" or
doses. Maybe if what appeared to
be the entire Poughkeepsie Police
Department wasn't parading
around between Marist parties,
fewer people would have a chance
to "Say No To Drugs."

Mark Miller
Well, gang, another
year,
another gear. Here we all are, shif-
ting ahead in our lives; those alum-
ni heading out to that evij place we
all try to ignore: "the real world,"
and you wonderful freshman·mov-
ing into a "new, invigorating ex-
perience."
:
Oh, and what an experience it is.
Lots of things await you here at
Marist, the veritable "Harvard on .
the Hudson."
I mean, you

here at Marist ... and all that other
junk.
However, I do want to warn
you, you just might, possibly be

only if you let yourself become a

Marist is because Marist has its
problems too.
You must realize that Marist is
a school completely in transition,
practically in adolescence. Our
voice is changing, not really sure
where to go. Are we a Catholic col-
lege or are we too liberal to be
· labelled that? Or are we too con-
servative and political . to let the
school be labelled • anything but .
middle of the road?
Marist is in the process of mak-
ing a lot of hard decisions. Like a
human, th~ Marist body is chang-
ing with the plans
f.
or a new
academic building and'/dorm and
all that. God knows\vhen it will all
be done. I mean, what's the deal
with these 900 rooms in Donnelly,
anyway?
The frustrating thing is that we
as students must be patient with
Marist as it goes through a lot of
changes. Our money and some of
our energy is helping the school
make this transition. While we are
patient, the school makes plans for
the long term rather thari the short
four years in which we are here. I
don't want people to have to be
issued hard hats when they are ac-
cepted here, you know?
At one point it would be nice for
the school to be a completely stable
place, no Canterbury, no construc-
tion, no change. That's
a
long way
down the· road. We as students
won't feel the effects of that change
for a long time, until we're out of
here in fact.
· That is why it is important not
to let yourself be a number. Get in-
volved, take advantage of what the
school has to offer you.
lf
you
want more from your school; go
after it; there are ways to get it. We
·are the school. The students have
great power. that most do not
bother to wield.
That power need not be bad. We
need to work constructively for the
good of this school and help it in
its rough period of change. I mean,
come on, remember when you were
in puberty? Do you really want a
whole institution go through that?
Use the voice you have, take ad-
vantage of what we've got, because
god knows if it'll
be here
tomorrow.
Good luck, freshman. You've
got an interesting four years ahead
of you
(ff
not more) ... and don't
forget that your ideas, your at-
titudes, your beliefs can help shape
this school for the,future.

This is a big adjustment in my
life. It means I can browse in liquor

The thrill of illicit entraMe into

life complete.
Time to move on.
Looking ahead to this academic

to come about.
For instance, the toilet paper on

Editor;
I
am a prisoner on death row at
the Arizona State Prison and I was
wondering if you would do me a
favor. I have been here for thineen
years and have no family or friends
on the outside to write to. I was
wondering if you would put this ad
in your campus newspaper for me
for correspondence. I know that
you are not a pen pal club or
anything like that, but I would real-
ly appreciate it if you could help
. me.
The next evening was filled with
numerous similar stories but it real-
ly hit home for me when while the
police department was playing
around at keg parties, three of my
closest friends were mugged at
knife-point
in the center of
downtown Poughkeepsie.
This
begs
the obvious question:
Why is this happening?

·After
740 freshman moved in last-week, Director of Housing Steve
Sansola called the check-in the smoothest in five years and said that the
housing placement procedure over the summer also went well:
. The incomirigfreshman were housed in Leo; Sheahan and Manan halls
and the rust. three floors of Champagnat Hall, a predominantly
sophomore dorm.

Sansola said that complaints by parents during last Tuesday's check-
in were niinimaJ; and that although_there are five temporary freshmen
build-ups, be is pleased with the housing assignments;
.
.
The build-ups, which simply means there are more students than there
should be in a room, will eventually be solved through attrition and other
openings iri housing, Sansota· said.

.
The school is housing 382 students, mostly juniors and transfer
students,

the Canterbury Garden Apartments, and Sansola said he
expects that number to go up to about 385. Last y~ 315 students lived
in Canterbury.

;
Housing freshmen on Champagat's frrst floor moved more sophomores
to the Gartland Commons Apartments at the North End of campus.
Sophomores are living in the G section and apartments 3 through 8 of
the D section of the complex. Some sophomores live with upperclassmen
in the F section. There are no underclassmen living in the Townhouses.

In its first match of the season,
the Marist women's volleyball team
defeated· Bard College in three
straight games; 15-8, 15-1, 15-3.
"Everyone played well," said
coach Victor Vancarpels. "Our
starters' are solid."
Marist was trailing 7-6 in the fll'St
game when freshman Kathlc:en
Sturges recorded seven straight ser-
vice points - including three aces.
V
ancarpels said he wanted to see
how the young team would come
together.
"The real key was to see how we
would play with each other," he
said. "We're going into (the
season) to see how our combina-
tions work together on offense and
defense."

"I

schedule," Vancarpels said;·
"It
doesn't demand us to meet many
mismatches in tournaments and it's
the first schedule which is balanc-

Fewer matches are.scheduled for
this season, giving the team more

The team hopes to have about

well
as the regional and national cham-

Graham, the only senior on the

Other teams in the. conference

should provide good competition
for Marist, Graham said.
Last year, the men's team cap-
tured two second-place awards in
.
both singles and doubles.
Scott Liparelli and Artie Moehle
each made it to the finals of his
respective singles bracket, then the
pair teamed up -

final in the doubles bracket - los-

Graham and Eric Funlc also
made it to the finals of their
doubles bracket.
At last season's National Cham-
pionships, the men's team placed
in the top 10- finishing in seventh
place - while the women's team,
with only two players (Sue Malinga
and Anne Prentice), finished 12th.
Graham said information on the
team is available at the McCann

Reggie Chambers has withdrawn
from the college.
Personal reasons was sited as the
reason for the withdraw!.
"I have been aware for some
time that.Reggie.has been dealing
with personal . problems," said
men's basketball caoch Dave
Magarity. "But the desision to
withdraw
•
from school surprised
me."
Chambers appeared in 26 of the
Red Foxes' 27 games last season -
r
his flashy style earning him a 7 .9
points per game average.
Chambers' play also earned him
an average of 3.2 assists, I. 7 steals
and 1. 1 rebounds per game.
The coaching staff was also
pleased with Chambers' perfor-
mance -- naming him 'most. im-
proved player of the year.'
"It's never easy to lose a player
of his ability," Magarity said. "But
now I'm more concerned with his
future off the court both as a stu-
dent and a player.
There is no word yet as to
whether or not Chambers will
return to Marist in the future.

"I

Although the basketball i>rO-'
grani is leading the way to the
city, , Doris said. the move by
Marist from the Northeast Con-
ference to the East .Coast Con-
ference should help enllance the
other programs.
"Rik Smits (former Marist
star, now Indiana Pacers'
center) sort of distorted the pic-
ture for-Marist - it was like a
quick success," Doris said. "I
don't think people realize that
there's a lot of foundation work
being done (in the athletic
department)-
the move to the
ECC is one example of that."
