_Students create capping course
by KARA FLYNN
Staff Writer
No text books. No syllabus. No dead-
lines.
Under the instruction of Donald Ander-
son, assistant professor of English, the fall
English capping class chose their own ad-
ventilre by creating their own projects for
the semester. ·
An<ll'rson said the idea of such as class
came from a department meeting last spring,
where senior English majors met with them.
"There was no clear sense of what the de-
part~ent should be looking for in a capping ·
class," said Anderson. ''There was a con-
cern that the capping experience was some-
what overlooking the three concentrations ·
and a fourth unofficial one."
The English major has three concentrations:
literature, writing, and theater. There is also
an opportunity to receive a teaching certifi-
cate in secondary education.
Anderson said by encompassing all three
concentrations and the education students,
the capping class structure is a community
of tem:hing and le~ing.
''The students learn about each other~s tal-
ents; areas of specialty, and broad-based ex-
periences. allowing me to step back and let
things-happen."·
The students are involved in projects con-
cerning proposals to strengthen both the
theater concentration and the education pro-.
gram; an anthology ofliterature for chit-
. dren, a one man, one act play; and a
website, arQ0_ng ofu.e.rs. _
ChristopherLaline, a senior enr~lled
in the class, said the class is a learning
experience to be passionate about.
''This class gave us freedom· and let
us do something we've really wanted
to do," said Laline. "It has been a really
good experience."
Jen Hansen, who is writing an autobi-
ography as her project, said she thinks
the class is beneficial to her.
"It is not like the nomial, have to read
a book, have to take a test type of class,"
said Hansen. "You get to investigate
the things you enjoy doing."
Allyson McCullough, also a member
of the class, said although she likes the
class, she does not like the way it is
structured.
"We have to reflect back to the title,
it's a "Capping class."
If
it was called
the "Final class," that would be a com-
pletely different meaning," said
McCullough. "We're ilot capping any-
thing, we're just doing what we want."
In
addition to their projects, students ·
have been mentoring freshman English
majors through an e-mail conference ..
Anderson said the class worked out
better than he hoped. .
''This class gets our newest majors
talking," he said.

Sister Patricia Stowers presented Dr ..
Jeanne Evans and Brother Paul Ambrose
necklaces made of shells,_ and she
thanked them for allowing her to speak.
Stower's spoke to a room of approxi-
mately
JO
people on Nov. 20 about the
effects of western culture on Samoa. Her
speech was sponsored by the Political
Science Club, the Marist Brothers,
Women's Studies; the United Nations
Club and the Humanities Lecture Series.
Stowers is head of the Missionary Sis-
ters of the Society of Mary. She left
Western Samoa in 1994 to do mission
work in Rome.
She is presently in North America to
celebrate the 150th anniversary of the
foundation of the Marist Missionary Sis-
ters, which is one of six branches of the
Marist religious family. This family in-
cludes the Marist Brothers, who formed
Marist College 50 years ago.
She said missionaries, particularly
Marist Brothers, changed Samoan reli-
gious practices and influenced her to
become a missionary herself.
"[The] Marist Brothers were the first
teaching order of men to arrive in Samoa,"
Stowers said. "My great-great grandfa-
ther, my'great grandfather and my grand-
father: were all educated by the Marist
Brothers."
Stowers said that in 1845, the first two
Marist priests came to Samoa.
''They were really the first Christian
group to arrive," she said. "Before them
came the London Missionary Society."
There was no opportunity for second-
ary schools in Western Samoa when
Stowe.rs was growing up, so her father
sent her to school in New Zealand.
The first woman to do missionary work,
was a French woman in 1845. Stowers
said she lived on the island of Warns,
east of Samoa. She lived there for 12 and
a half years by herself, until she was joined
by three other: women.
In I 889, Samoa was colonized by Ger-
many, but Americans and the English were
also there.
In 1914, Samoa was handed over by the
League of Nations under the administra-
tion of New Zealand, after Gennany lost
WorldWarl.
·
Sarnoa became the first Pacific country
to gain its independence in 1962.
"We are proud of that," Stowers said.
"We did it without shedding English
blood."
Stowers said the beliefin tradition is
strong in Samoa. There is an importance
in ancestors.
"We had our own Gods," Stowers said.
''The belief in ancestors and gods was a
preparation for Jesus."
Stowers said Samoan ancestors were
replaced by Saint Thomas Aquinas,
Francis of Assisi, and other patron saints
of the Catholic religion, after the arrival of
missionaries.
"Our gods became devils," Stowers said.
~'All our former deities became of nega-
tive connotations and were replaced by
Jesus."
Stowers said Samoans bring traditional
customs into the liturgy.
"We've been able to maintain a Samoan
way of doing things," Stowers said.
''That's probably why the path to inde-
pendence was so smooth, because we
didn't push out a colonial power."
Stowers said the church does not just
consist of the Pope, the Bishops or Cardi-
nals, but of everyone. She called this the
"People of God Aspect."
Stowers stressed the importance of cel-
ebration in Samoan culture.
"Celebration is our contribution to the
universal church," Stowers said. "Your 50
years as a college coincides a little bit, also
with 150 years that we celebrated in Sa-
moa last year. So I feel as though I'm in
the middle of jubilees wherever I go."

you expect. This holds true not only for career searching, but for relationships and for
planning a future in gene~. Everyone grows up thinking their lives will tum out a certain
way, but sometimes, when things change unexpectedly, it is best to just go with the flow
(sorry aboutthe cliche).
That is not to say that hoping
·
and praying for things to tum out a certain way is
necessarily bad, but keep in
·
mind there could come a time when dreams may have to be
altered to accommodate reality. I do not want planning thedetails of my future to result
in me not making the most of what I have right now. I think it is important for seniors to
take advantage of aJl Mari st has to offer, not only in terms of career and job placement,
but through activities and the social life here as well. As long as we strive towards
general goals, we will do well in our futures, and things might even tum out better than
we expected.

If there is one thing I have learned this semester, it is that good things happen when
you least expect them to. They rar~ly happen when you anticipate them.

Peter O'Keefe sat in the class-
rooms at Marist five years ago.
Now he sits in an office in the
White House.

O'Keefc received
a
B.S.
in

litical sciencefromMaristin 1991.
Now, he is the associate director
for public liaison at the White
House.
"I knew
that
I loved politics and
was going to be involved in it
somehow," O'Keefe said.
Two
days after graduation,
O'Kecfe received a phone call
asking him to volunteer on the
campaign of Democrat John
Oliver, who was elected for Con-
gress in Northampton, Mass
.
After one month, O'Keefe said
he

"I
met members of the Demo-

Washington, and they shopped

_Students create capping course
by KARA FLYNN
Staff Writer
No text books. No syllabus. No dead-
lines.
Under the instruction of Donald Ander-
son, assistant professor of English, the fall
English capping class chose their own ad-
ventilre by creating their own projects for
the semester. ·
An<ll'rson said the idea of such as class
came from a department meeting last spring,
where senior English majors met with them.
"There was no clear sense of what the de-
part~ent should be looking for in a capping ·
class," said Anderson. ''There was a con-
cern that the capping experience was some-
what overlooking the three concentrations ·
and a fourth unofficial one."
The English major has three concentrations:
literature, writing, and theater. There is also
an opportunity to receive a teaching certifi-
cate in secondary education.
Anderson said by encompassing all three
concentrations and the education students,
the capping class structure is a community
of tem:hing and le~ing.
''The students learn about each other~s tal-
ents; areas of specialty, and broad-based ex-
periences. allowing me to step back and let
things-happen."·
The students are involved in projects con-
cerning proposals to strengthen both the
theater concentration and the education pro-.
gram; an anthology ofliterature for chit-
. dren, a one man, one act play; and a
website, arQ0_ng ofu.e.rs. _
ChristopherLaline, a senior enr~lled
in the class, said the class is a learning
experience to be passionate about.
''This class gave us freedom· and let
us do something we've really wanted
to do," said Laline. "It has been a really
good experience."
Jen Hansen, who is writing an autobi-
ography as her project, said she thinks
the class is beneficial to her.
"It is not like the nomial, have to read
a book, have to take a test type of class,"
said Hansen. "You get to investigate
the things you enjoy doing."
Allyson McCullough, also a member
of the class, said although she likes the
class, she does not like the way it is
structured.
"We have to reflect back to the title,
it's a "Capping class."
If
it was called
the "Final class," that would be a com-
pletely different meaning," said
McCullough. "We're ilot capping any-
thing, we're just doing what we want."
In
addition to their projects, students ·
have been mentoring freshman English
majors through an e-mail conference ..
Anderson said the class worked out
better than he hoped. .
''This class gets our newest majors
talking," he said.

Sister Patricia Stowers presented Dr ..
Jeanne Evans and Brother Paul Ambrose
necklaces made of shells,_ and she
thanked them for allowing her to speak.
Stower's spoke to a room of approxi-
mately
JO
people on Nov. 20 about the
effects of western culture on Samoa. Her
speech was sponsored by the Political
Science Club, the Marist Brothers,
Women's Studies; the United Nations
Club and the Humanities Lecture Series.
Stowers is head of the Missionary Sis-
ters of the Society of Mary. She left
Western Samoa in 1994 to do mission
work in Rome.
She is presently in North America to
celebrate the 150th anniversary of the
foundation of the Marist Missionary Sis-
ters, which is one of six branches of the
Marist religious family. This family in-
cludes the Marist Brothers, who formed
Marist College 50 years ago.
She said missionaries, particularly
Marist Brothers, changed Samoan reli-
gious practices and influenced her to
become a missionary herself.
"[The] Marist Brothers were the first
teaching order of men to arrive in Samoa,"
Stowers said. "My great-great grandfa-
ther, my'great grandfather and my grand-
father: were all educated by the Marist
Brothers."
Stowers said that in 1845, the first two
Marist priests came to Samoa.
''They were really the first Christian
group to arrive," she said. "Before them
came the London Missionary Society."
There was no opportunity for second-
ary schools in Western Samoa when
Stowe.rs was growing up, so her father
sent her to school in New Zealand.
The first woman to do missionary work,
was a French woman in 1845. Stowers
said she lived on the island of Warns,
east of Samoa. She lived there for 12 and
a half years by herself, until she was joined
by three other: women.
In I 889, Samoa was colonized by Ger-
many, but Americans and the English were
also there.
In 1914, Samoa was handed over by the
League of Nations under the administra-
tion of New Zealand, after Gennany lost
WorldWarl.
·
Sarnoa became the first Pacific country
to gain its independence in 1962.
"We are proud of that," Stowers said.
"We did it without shedding English
blood."
Stowers said the beliefin tradition is
strong in Samoa. There is an importance
in ancestors.
"We had our own Gods," Stowers said.
''The belief in ancestors and gods was a
preparation for Jesus."
Stowers said Samoan ancestors were
replaced by Saint Thomas Aquinas,
Francis of Assisi, and other patron saints
of the Catholic religion, after the arrival of
missionaries.
"Our gods became devils," Stowers said.
~'All our former deities became of nega-
tive connotations and were replaced by
Jesus."
Stowers said Samoans bring traditional
customs into the liturgy.
"We've been able to maintain a Samoan
way of doing things," Stowers said.
''That's probably why the path to inde-
pendence was so smooth, because we
didn't push out a colonial power."
Stowers said the church does not just
consist of the Pope, the Bishops or Cardi-
nals, but of everyone. She called this the
"People of God Aspect."
Stowers stressed the importance of cel-
ebration in Samoan culture.
"Celebration is our contribution to the
universal church," Stowers said. "Your 50
years as a college coincides a little bit, also
with 150 years that we celebrated in Sa-
moa last year. So I feel as though I'm in
the middle of jubilees wherever I go."

you expect. This holds true not only for career searching, but for relationships and for
planning a future in gene~. Everyone grows up thinking their lives will tum out a certain
way, but sometimes, when things change unexpectedly, it is best to just go with the flow
(sorry aboutthe cliche).
That is not to say that hoping
·
and praying for things to tum out a certain way is
necessarily bad, but keep in
·
mind there could come a time when dreams may have to be
altered to accommodate reality. I do not want planning thedetails of my future to result
in me not making the most of what I have right now. I think it is important for seniors to
take advantage of aJl Mari st has to offer, not only in terms of career and job placement,
but through activities and the social life here as well. As long as we strive towards
general goals, we will do well in our futures, and things might even tum out better than
we expected.

If there is one thing I have learned this semester, it is that good things happen when
you least expect them to. They rar~ly happen when you anticipate them.

Staff Writer
Peter O'Keefe sat in the class-
rooms at Marist five years ago.
Now he sits in an office in the
White House.

O'Keefc received
a
B.S.
in

litical sciencefromMaristin 1991.
Now, he is the associate director
for public liaison at the White
House.
"I knew
that
I loved politics and
was going to be involved in it
somehow," O'Keefe said.
Two
days after graduation,
O'Kecfe received a phone call
asking him to volunteer on the
campaign of Democrat John
Oliver, who was elected for Con-
gress in Northampton, Mass
.
After one month, O'Keefe said
he
got
his major break.
"I
met members of the Demo-

Washington, and they shopped
