Past Marist presidents,
Dr.
Ri-
chard Foy and Brother Paul
Ambrose. were honored with
gifts and speeches as being
two l~aders who shaped the
college.
·
During his introduction,
Marist President Dennis
Murray said the two men have
made a profound impact on
Maii.i..1
College.
"Th~se are two dedicated
in-
dividuals whose role can never
be underestimated,'' Murray
said.
Murray specifically recognized
Foy's early insight into the uses
of information technology in
·
education. a hallmark of
today's
.
Marist College.
Gus Nolan. assistant professor
of conununications, said Foy and
Ambrose have been key to
··
Marist's success.

"Marist has been rated
in
the
top
15
schools because of the im-
pact Rich
·
[Foy] .and
·
Paul
[Ambrose]have put on the col-
lege,'' Nolan said.
He stressed that the Marist
Brother's tradition, including
hwnility. simplicity, and modesty
is the driving force behind the
school's success.
Murray reiterated the theme.
saying· the college
may
be
dif-
ferent
in
many ways.but the val-
·
ues remain the same.
Then Foy spoke and attributed
the initial
growth
of the college
to the political change during his
administration.
Foy said the 1960s were an
amazing time for the college,
call-
ing attention to the rapid change
that swept the· church and entire
nation.

"I arrived just when Maris twas

Wade said.

Professors and students from

whether it is important to have a

Finkelstein said he makes up
what he writes about.
"You're never an ex-attorney,''
Finkelstein said.
Kelley, also an ex-attorney,
said he writes stories from a sto-
ryteller gut, not a legal gut.
Wolf, who is not a former at-

legal department.

Dieting .fads: Exercise is the way to go
by
Michelle
Griffis
Staff Writer
. Many students jog and bike.
The fitness center
has
become a
place where students meet to
work out and stay healthy.
..
.
Exercise and fitness are be-
coming an important part of the
daily routine of college life.
According to Jane O'Brien, the
director of Health Services at
Marist College, students are con-
cerned about their diet, and about
their-weight, even as they enter
Marist as freshmen.
"'The freshmen are worried
aboutgaining the 'freshman
15,'
which is the theory that students
can expect to gain
15
pounds
their freshman
year,"
O'Brien
said.
At health services, the nurses
try
to ease the students' minds
about weight gain.
"The first thing we try to do is
to tell them about wise choices
in dining:. what to choose and
what
to
avoid," O'Brien said.
Frc:,h fruit and steamed veg-
etables are good
to
eat
and just
some of
rhe
choices
that
O'Brien
suggested.
"Students are overwhelmed by
the number of choices they have
in the cafeteria and the fact
that
they can. take as much as they

want," O'Brien added. "Tney eat can have

Wall echoed O'Brien's senti-
ments when she said that biking,
jogging and walking are all good
activities for keeping in shape.
Aerobics are also a good way to
keep healthy, and she said many
people enjoy aerobics classes.
"Everyone is looking for a
'drive through' workout," Wall
said.
Wall added that our bodies are
machines.
"If
we tune our cars, why not
tune ·our bodies as well," Wall.
said.
People feel that starving them-
selves is the answer. Wall said it
is not a good way to lose weight.
"If
we starve ourselves then
the body shuts dowµ and it
hoards fat," Wall said.
Exercise is something people
have to get into the routines of
their lives, Wall said.
. "Unless it's a life change, and
one sets realistic goals, then it
won't work," Wall said. "Find a
place where you are happy."
Allyson McCullough, a senior
English major, said she is trying
to cut some of the fat out of her
diet and she is doing this by eat-
ing more healthy foods.
McCullough said she tries to
eat
cereal instead of pancakes or
waffles for breakfast.
She also
eats
lots of fruits and
vegetables.
"I'm c_utting down on the
amount of food I eat and the
types of food I
eat,"
McCullough
said.
McCullough said she is exer-
cising, as well as eating better.
"I try to exercise every day, but
if
I miss a
day
I don't worry about
it," McCullough said.
McCullough said she watches
exercise shows and then makes
her own program out of it.
McCullough tried her own
form of a fad diet, where for six
weeks she ate an English muffin
for breakfast, and one for lunch,
and then she would have tomato
soup or spaghetti for dinner. She
exercised twice
a
day.
McCullough said she lost the
weight she was trying to lose, but
it all came back.
"Cut things out of your diet,
so you get used to it, then you
can cheat once in a while
be-
cause you are in a routine al-
ready," McCullough said.
McCullough said she has
been working on her new way of
keeping healthy for about four
and a half months now.
"I feel great, and I can see a
difference," McCullough
said.

Someone is looking out. for
Marist resident students.

Being
an
RA
is not an easy job, but
those who do it are ready to help
, including Lisa
camagna,
RA
for
the North End.
"I became an RA because it
seemed Ilke it would· give me

experience. It

you here, and people listen to
you," Camagna said.
Since Camagna is a psychology
major, she. said she enjoys the

"Many times people just need
someone to hold their hand and
tell them it is going to
be

she said.
Camagna, who celebrated her
one year anniversary of being an
RA recently, said she
thinks
the
most difticult part about her job
is
discipline.
"It is hard because you are a
student yourself, but the rules
must
be
followed. Where do you·
draw
the line?

Camagna
said.
But Camagna seems to have
found the balance. She said she
is usually respected as an
RA.

"I
try
to let them know that I
am there. I am not just here
to
get
a salary. I do care," Camagna
said.
She found that the more expe-
rience you have as an RA, the
more you are able
to
handle
diffi-
cult situations when they arise.
Camagnahas advice for new
RAs

. "The
residents should talce ad- .

Camagna said.
The
RAs
at Marist College see
many of scary situations, accord-
ing to Carnagna, but that is what
their training is for.
·
Each semester and over the
summer they have RA training
sessions. Camagna began as an
RA last year with a situation she
would rather have avoided.
•~A
resident in a dorm got sick
from drinking and made a mess
in the hallway. The RA for that
area was sick, so I was called in
to
deal with the problem. I had to
write up · the student, and I felt
bad, but it was my job," Camagna
said.
The Housing staff meet once a
month for "Staff.Development."
They go off campus to the drive-
in
or out to dinner. Camagna said
she helps plan these outings.
"It is a way we appreciate each
other for the work we do. We
need
to
hear thank you once
in
a
while. It
is
nice to know people
care that you do a good job,"
Camagna said.

With
all my heart, I know that he is one of the least deserv-

I
remember this as never being'easy. Most of my childhood
I
was
so painfully shy that
I would try to go
up
to little Elicia Blake, looking
down at the ground and shuffling my feet while my hands were
digging deep into my pockets searching for a piece of my heart that
I could give to her in my lit!Ie sweaty hands, but the whole time it
w~ lost somewhere alongside my words on my sleeve.
If
you really liked someone, you would hit them pretty hard while
pulling their hair until they cried. This never really got anyone.any-
where, but it was fun.
Even at this age, the road that boys and girls often fall and scrape
their knees on together has always been a long and winding one that
has a lot less directional signs and becomes more confusing
as
you
get older.
.
For the most part,
I believe our attitudes about our relationships
with one another changes a lot over your college years. Th~ first
couple of years, we are introduced to the
art
of the 'Marist Hookup.•
When it comes down to -it, most were just fishing around this new
ocean
and just using someone with a new line and hook every week-
end.
·
Hopefully, we all grow out of this by the second half of our college
careers and we start searching our hearts for something deeper. Some
of us were never into that_ scene and have had our own personal
troubled waters
with
someone we have had
a
long term relationship
with. Many of
us
are still left feeling very alone searching for what
we now believe has become the myth of 'the one.'
It
seems that most at this stage of the game are thrown into a state
of panic when we are having troubles with or finding 'the one.' First
of all, what is and where do we find 'the one?' What sort of feelings
· are you supposed to have towards this person that you have not
bad in past relationships?
When I'm really confused and get sick to my stomach around the
person
I
believe is truly 'the one,'
I
throw it into the
hands
of destiny.
We all have been tricked into thinking someone was that some-
body, but we soon find out that we were just fooling ourselves
be-
cause most of us want 'the one' so bad that we will fall for just about
anyone. We lie to ourselves because we are just
too
naive, or in most ·
cases,
too
scared to see it for what it really is.
Just do not think it
is
imperative to find that person by the time
you get out of college. It. happens when we least expect it and at
different points in life for all of us.
· You might not have met your destiny yet or 'the one' could be
standing right in front of your face but the moment of realization
has
yet
to
dawn.
'
You will know that moment because your heart will ache, you will
feel totally free with this person, and this is a cliche, it will feel like
magic.
