Staff Writer
The World Wide Web is a vital
part of both academic and leisure
pursuits here at Marist. How-
ever,just when you thoughtyou
were close
to
mastering the vast
reaches ·of cyberspace, ·another
recent development has ap-
peared
in
an
attempt to forever
change the look of cyberspace
as we know it.
Sun Microsystems, a computer
platform and software develop-
ment fmn in
California,
has
spear-
headed the development of a
programming language called
Java.
No, this new technology has
nothing to do with your morn-
ing cup of coffee, but it is wak-
ing ·up· computer programmers
and web enthusiasts all over the
world.
.
"Up until now," says Barbara
McMullen, Director of Marist's
Department of Academic Com-
puting, ~·the web has been an en-
vironment for everybody. Pub-
lishing on the web hasn't re-
quired much technical expertise,
and really hasn't required any
knowledge of programming. This
aspect of the Internet really
scares computer programmers
and
so,
with Java, Sun is trying
to regain the computer industry's
monopoly on the Internet.''
Java is a computer language
based on C++. It is an intelligent,
compact tool for creating anima-
tion and performing calculations.
Marist has already incorporated
a piece of Java animation on it's
Academic Computing Home
Page
(http://
www.academic.marist.edu). The
exciting thing about Java is how
quickly its animations are trans-
mitted over the. Internet.
In
the
past, to view_ animation on the
Web, animation. files had to be
downloaded off of a web page,
and possibly after
3-4
minutes of
downloading, the animation
could be viewed. With the com-
piled Java script, the animation
is transmitted with the home
page, .and the end-user hardly
realizes an animation is being
transmitted at all.
However, due to software re-
quirements, the moving marquee

What do you think
is
the most important
issue
facing the students at
Marist.
What
are your plans to do about it?
'There are always old problems like parking and condoms. There's no real one
problem facing the campus.
The one thing I think is a problem is the amount of funds. A proposal has been
tossed around to see whether they can raise the $75 activity fee. A lot of clubs
have applied for a large amount of money which the current activity fee was unable
to handle.
.
A
study asking how raising the activity fee for nex.t
year
[would solve the prob-
lem) would be beneficial to the student body."

Why <lo you think you're th~ best candidate for the position?
"I believe experience is

I
believe
I
have more experience in
student government than my opponent.
I
served in student government two out
of three
years
I'ye
been at Marist.
I
served in all three of the branches. I've served
on the executive board and have had some influence there.
I
put a lot of influence
into student government."
·

What
are
your qualifications?
"Freshmen
year I was president of Marian Hall Resident Student Council. I was
a member of the Student Life Council which is composed of [resident student
council] presidents and examines student life on campus.
I
also did
community
service.
I
was also co-anchor of the Marist College Radio news show.
Sophomore year
I
was elected member of the student judicial board and was Vice
President for Residents on the Student Life Council.
I
was news director of the
college radio.
I
did intra-mural volleyball as well as Model United Nations.
Junior year
I
was Vice President for Student Life and a member of the executive
board. I was
·
president of the student Life council and general manager of Marist
College Radio. I helped move the station to its current location and expanded it."
4.
How are y~u going to make student government more recognizable on cam-
pus?
.
..
"Almost a grass roots kind of thing. You have to combine the power of all the
residents and commuters.
I've helped increase the membership in RSC from 250 students to 500 students.
.
We just have to show students that we are the most effective ways of [bringing
about] change.
I'd like to create a better system for handling our maintenance problems.just to
show that your student government is effective, we hear your concerns and we're
doing something about them."
·
5.
Do you have any suggestions for making the Marist campus safer?
"Every year, student government comes out with its Safety and Security Report.
Security issues such as lighting, parking, after the past few years, security has
responded to it. I think the campus is safe as I've seen in lhe past few years.
Just to listen to student concerns. There was some vandalism on campus. It
wasn't reported. It came up at the RSC meetings. Some cars were vandalized and
security proceeded to conduct an investigation and caught the person who did it.
Keep a finger on the pulse of Marist College [and] you can
keep
_
the campus
safe."

People have been observing
Valentine's Day on February
14
since the Middle Ages, but
there are a variety of explana-
tions of how this holiday began.
According to ''The American
Book of Days," at least two
Saint Valentines shared Febru-
ary
14
as their feast day. One
was a priest from Rome, and the
other was the bishop of
Interainna. They,_were both
beaten · and beheaded · by the
Emperor Clauilius Il in 269
A.O.
Various legendi have been.
passed on. r~gafoing these
saints. One states that one Saint
Valentine was imprisoned. While
he was injail, he fell in
.
love with
~ejailer's daughter, and he sent
her a letter signed "From your
Valentine."
During the Middle Ages, many
people also believed that Febru-
ary
14
was the day the birds be-
gan to mate.
Another theory dates back to
a practice that was performed on
February
14,
the night before the
ancient Roman feast, Lupercaiia.
At that time, the names of young
women were put into
a
box from
which they were drawn by young
men. These men became the
women's partners for the festi-
val and possibly for some time
to come.
One legend from 15th century
England stated that the first per-

is made and released.

The second of the two "new"
Beatles songs, "Real Love," is
being released to radio stations
around Valentine's Day, al-
though it won't be available for
purchase until several weeks
later.
Sony Legacy is releasing five
compilations of old love songs

range of tastes: country, soul,

Platt, teaching seemed like the

Before he began teaching; Platt
· attended graduate school. Dur-
ing this time, he worked
as
a Pri-

meet. He said this was one of his
most interesting jobs because he
was .able to. learn a lot about
people.
Walter Jablonski,·. an adjunct
instructor of political science,
said he also had some memorable
experiences before he began
teaching at Marist.
.
"I
drove from Panama all the
way to the U.S.
It was fascinat-

I
saw firsthand the
differences between the areas,
economically and socially,"
Jablonski said.
Jablonski said he is also ac-
tively involved in politics in this
area; and he was recently elected
Chairman of the Democratic Party
for Dutchess County.

Vincent Toscano, an associate
professor of history, said he also
worked some unusual jobs be-

Toscano said he also taught
older scouts how to row canoes,

than it may seem.
"Coordination is involved. It
was fun to watch the boys go in

We:-isendlng to prison?
by cliris#an Bladt.
An.yone who heard about the
two Chicago boys who dropped
a five'-year-old out of a fourteenth
story window had to have been
· shocked. When the incident
oc-
curred two years ago, the public
outrage was not so much over
the fact that they did such a hor-
rible thing, but why they did it.
The boys, now twelve ~d
thir-
teen, say that they dangled Eric
Morse out of the window be-
cause he refused to steal candy
for them from a local store.
It was truly a reprehensible act.
One for which there can be no
excuse. One that can never be
_forgiven. These children un-
questionably need to be pun-
ished and the state of Illinois
agrees. ·
In
fact, at the beginning
of last week, prison sentences
were himded down to the boys.
By state law, they can be re-
leased in five years, but cannot
be
detained for· this crime· after
they tum 21years-old; There are
a number of ethical issues sur-
rounding the case.
One is the fact that when they
committed the crime, minors un-
der the age of thirteen in Illinois
could not

Due to_ the public outrage sur-
rounding· the case, · Democratic

. Students outraged at unnecessary roughness and
·cruelty in the C~baret
Editor:
This Jetter is in response to an incident we witnessed on February 4, in the Cabaret of the student
.center.
As several. students were enjoying their lovely meals of Cabaret food, we were interrupted by two
maintenance meri infonning us that there was a bird loose in the Cabaret. They told us to finish up and
move in the little room right next to the main eating area.
As we did this, me and my friend sat w~ere we could see what they were doing . The two men had
brooms and were trying desperately to swat at the bird. After this failed, they picked up salt shakers
and threw them
at
the bird, trying in a foolish and aggressive way of getting the bird out of the room.
Finally, they got Frisbees and began throwing them at the bird while laughing. As my friend and I were
getting ready to tell them not to hurt the bird, on of the men hit it and the bird cam crashing to the floor.
When this happened, we both ran out there and began yelling at them. Another student who was
trying to eat in the room crune out and picked up the bird and put it outside because the bird-killer just
held the broom over it, but would not pick it up. I suppose he was enough of a man to harm it, but not
to
pick it up. The student said it somehow flew away with a broken leg.
My friend and I were enraged at such a weak act. We told the man that there was oth~r ways of trying
to get the bird out, like opening the door, or putting some food by the door. I guess the man was just
trying to put on some show, but no one was entertained.
The two men left the room saying that they did not mean to hurt the bird, but they were only throwing
object at it.
·
The way the maintenance men treated the bird was very inhumane and we do not believe that such
acts of animal cruelty should be allowed on campus or anywhere else, whether by employees or
students.
Thank you,
Amanda Liles and Jeanette Deskiewicz,

Lack of seating at McCann is
getting out of control
F.ditor:

I am writing to you today to call to your attention a problem that
I
encountered last Saturday night.
I,
like many Marist students
went to the Mccann Center. on Saturday to support our Red
Foxes. Upon arriving at McCann,
I
learned that the game was sold
out and that many seats in the designed student section were sold
to the general public,
I.
was outraged by this. With the cost of our
tuition each student could buy several sets of season tickets to
Marist basketball games. More than the financial aspect is the
idea that
I
came
io
Marist with the understanding that
I
was going
to become part of a small collegiate community. On Saturday
night,
I
felt that Marist was not about students having a good time
but more concerned about making some extra cash. Please take my
letter as a voice from the student community because
I am sure
that
I
am not the only one who was disappointed on Saturday
night. Thank you.

Policies, parking and apathy
Editor:
Students remaih deeply distressed concerning a numberofMarist's
current administrative policies.
I
was reminded of this in an ordeal of
my own this past weekend.
I
should begin by saying that this happening took place less than a
week after my return from visiting an old friend at Connecticut's
Wesleyan University-a trip which had on me a profound effect,
shedding light-'-after almost four years of apathy-an a number of
the thirigs which Marist truly has to offer. But alas, my long-absent,
newly-rediscovered sense of school spirit lingered for less than six
days ..
· I
could at this point proceed to engage in a lengthy diatribe on
every~hing from maintenance woes to the injudicious recent hacks
·• at
the
Academic
Computing budget, but
JwiJI
spare my fellow stu-
dents such affliction in the interest of relative conciseness.
The particular instance provoking this letter involved
a
parking
ticket, which
I
was assaulted with on opting
to
park in
the Dyson Lot
at
3:30
a.m. on Saturday, Feb.
3.
The singular decision to leave my car
in this location was made when, after driving through snow and
moderately high winds on the said morning, and having fishtailed
along Marist roadways, like Route
9,
had not yet been plowed. Find-
ing both Townhouse lots completely full (driving over snow that
was high enough to almost completely mask many of the speed
bumps), I recalled, to my vexation, seeing that the hill to the Hoop
Lot had also not been plowed.
At the time, the logical alternative seemed to be the Dyson Lot. A
supposition apparently made by a number of my fellow students,
each of us under the evidently incorrect assumption thai Safety and
Security would be sympathetic to students in a "just this once"
situation, in the middle of what seemed-at the time-to be a signifi-
cant snow storm.
What we found was much to the contrary. It would be no stretch to
believe that barrage of parking tickets issued in that lot-on Satur-
day morning alone-will, on payment, bring Marist College in ex-
cess of$200. An *extremely* conservative figure.
And I find that this experience calls to attention the purpose of
weekend parking restrictions *in general*-especially in a lot that is
on weekends entirely unused. I believe a similar policy is in effect
regarding the Lowell Thomas Lot, and a similar fate struck students
making parallel decisions in that lot.
If these parking lost are not to be used for such ridiculously absurd
and abominable purposes as parking , perhaps a new committee,
consisting of a few security officials and our dear President Murray,
can perceive fonnulate, and execute an alternative use, such as a
truly quaint, architecturally unique nine-hole miniature golf course.
Indeed, such an endeavor would perfectly supplement our
administration's continuing efforts to transfonn this campus into
one of the Hudson Valley's premier oases, with all the accompanying
snob appeal, while simultaneously reflecting their shrugging aside
any focus on academics (the pursuit of which would clearly have
prioritized the "library" over the *actually* useless Rotunda-and
the parking lot which it replaced.)
I know of many a student with many a similar story. And these
stories connect directly to an issue that far transcends the quanda-
ries of student parking. Perhaps this is the most saddening fact of all:
it hedges harrowingly close to suggesting how little this college
would need do to rectify the school spirit problem.
To the office of Safety and Security, our president, and cabinet: in
light of circumstance such as these, Marist has absolutely no right
whatsoever to complain of student apathy.
Joe Marranca,
senior

The Year of Response

DearUndergraduates,

of you were either inside or building snow forts during the
"Blizzard of
'96", I
ll11fortunately was on active duty for a
week and a half removing snow
iti
Newburgh with
my
· National Guard unit. Great
fun,
huh? Makes you realize
· just how self-contained life'at Marist really is and how
quickly we can
be
pulled away from it. Withjust two
· months remaining in this S.G.A. administration; we are
faced with a great many-things to do and very_little time to
do them in. With many of the goals we s,et in the beginning
of this term either reached or close to being obtained, . .
S.G.A. will refocus and spend the remainder of this adrilin~
istration dealing with internal structural changJs and club
management. Despite efforts in past administrations to
eliminate some of the flaws
in
the S.G.A. Constitution~ there
continues to be more that needs revising. Along with these
revisions,
I
am currently writing a set of S.G.A. by-laws to
regulate how we do business. Along with by-laws for the
organization
as
a whole, we are also revising the by-laws
for each individual executive council. Completion of these
items is planned prior to the end of March. Along thesarrie
· lines,
Jenn
Nocella will
be
working over the next couple of
weeks with club leaders
'
to make any ~ecessacy revisions to
outdated by-laws of our student org¢ations on c~pus. _
This ambitious projectisj~st119w

and with the support of
all
of S.G.A.
as

as
the dubs . -
themselves, hopefully will be completedby the end of· ·
February. As a side note -
I understand that for all clubs
involved this is short notice, butl foelit is important to
complete it before the tr~ition Of Studert Government in
April. ·_If anybody has
any
concerns about what we are
doing or why please contact me in the S.G.A. office. It's the
home stretch and were moving like a runaway train. Let tis
j1:1st pray that the ''Blizzard of

doesn't make a curtain
call. Otherwise I may spend the rest of the semester in
BDUs and toting a snow shovel.

It's your right, It's your future!
Attention Marist Students: The 1996 election year has arrived!
While voting for our national representatives, we must also focus our attention
on those individuals who are running to represent the student body. These dedi-
cated people are devoted to help better our community here at Marist. SGA has
organized several events to dispaly the candidates to the Student Body. On
February 12th, speeches are taking place in the theater in order to let candidates
express their platforms. On the following day,
MCTV
will be hosting a debate on
channel 13 at 10:00 p.m. And most importantly, the elections will be held on
February 19th and 20th in Dyson and the Student Center. ·
As
American citizens, the sole power to vote is in our hands, therefore it is up to
us to choose the ideal candidate to make our voices heard. As we strive toward
tomorrow, we need to make changes for our generation today. If you care about
your future, vote and make a difference.
Think
about this, "not voting is like tying
a gag around your mouth; your voice will never be heard."

productive and enjoyable second semester. The SLC is planning to sponsor
the Marist By Moonlight Dance and the Class Wars which occur at the end
of
the-semest~t, along'with the 'ever-popular Support Basket program. The
SLC's main fiinction, however is not to program, but to act as an advocacy
group. As the council, at the helm of each and every Resident Student
Council, the SLC' s main function is to voice the students concerns to both the
faculty and a<;lministration. So,if you have
any
problems that are effecting

SMrri.Y
The winter has been
'
cold and
so has the men's swim team.
After
17
consecutive wins, dat-
ing back to last season, the swim-
mers lost three straight dual
meets to St. John's, Colgate; and
the most
·
recent one being the
Rams of Fordham University.
The returning swimmers.feel
that they are a better
team
this
year. This doesn't inake sense.
Last season, Marist won their
conference, went undefeated,
but now dropped
three
consecu-
tively. The excuse
.
can't be the
one
that
the Metro Atlantic Ath-
letic Conference is too tough of
a conference. In fac~
it
is con-
sidered a more respected confer-
ence but Marist didn't lose
to
any
teams in the
MAAC.
-
The dual
meets that they lost Wef!! against
schools that were in other con-
ferences. St. John's is in the Big
East,
Colgate is in the Atlantic
10, while Fordham competes in
the Patriot league. The competi
-
tion is a lot better this
year
but
not solely
•
because Marist has
joined the MAAC. The excuses
seem to be of another nature.

.
say that everyone has a bad day
but three bad days in a
.
row!
There are a few possible reasons
·._.
why the team has been slacking
.
:
·
off.
.
.
. ·
}
,.
First of all, Marist has only 17
·
swimmers opposed to ~e 21
m,a,n
squad from last year.
·
'This pre~ ·.
·
sents the
·
.
problem of limited
choice for head
.
coach Larry
Van Wagner.
.
This also creates
less competition within the team.
Competition for positions usu-
ally motivates athletes to s
·
tay in

form
an
_
d keep working hard.
Secondly, the Rea Foxes losta
great deal of experience. They
·
.
graduated
seven senior§ -la~t.-

·
year and only remain ·with six .
swimmers that are juniors and
seniors
:
This lackofexperience
'
could
:
account
.
for the suqden
losing streak. Tile
.
freshman
dass could still be getting accus-
tomed
to
the
.
world ofcoJJegiate
athletics and not know how
.
to
prepare for these meets
.
with so
few seniors to guiqe them.
·
Lastly, the swimmers could just
be taking their winning ways for
granted
:
.
N:one of the sopho-
mores ever lost in college until
.
this year. This could be a con-
tributing factor since maybe
af-
.
ter the first loss
,
Maristcouldn't
handle the idea of losing and the
.
pressure got the better of them.

According to Van
Wagner, the team is well on it's
way to perfomung
.
well in the
Championships.
''Hopefully all 20 of the ath1etes
will perfonn not only at the
high-
est level of this past season but
at the highest level of their ca-
reer."
.
Freshman Matthew St. Lucia
qualified for the Eastern Colle-
giate Ath1etic Conference Cham-
pionships with his best perfor-
mance of the season in the
3
meter diving evenL
According to diving coach
Melanie Bolstad, this is the first
time ever that

beattencling theECAC Cham-
pionships that
take
place at the
end of March and run into the
first week of April.
Bolstad was relieved that St.
Lucia qualified
_
before the Con-
ference
·
Championships.
"At Iona College the boards
aren't very good," she said.
"Our goal was to qualify before
we went."
Another high point for the
divers was sophomore Chris
Blackwell as he set a schoo]
record in
the
3
meter dive, post-
ing a 298.87, breaking the school
record that he had set one year
ago.
·
.
:
Despite the current losing
streak; Van Wagnerdoesn'tseem
to be worried, saying that he is
satisfied with the perfonnance of
the
swimmers.
·
"During a taper you are look-
ing for any signs of the taper
having a positive effect on an
athJete," Van Wagner said. ''You
can see a greater percentage gain
speed
and the
ability
to control
the pace of events, that is what I
was looking for."
His confidence going

into the
championships can be related to
the fact that the two best events

were
the

Staff Writer
The World Wide Web is a vital
part of both academic and leisure
pursuits here at Marist. How-
ever,just when you thoughtyou
were close
to
mastering the vast
reaches ·of cyberspace, ·another
recent development has ap-
peared
in
an
attempt to forever
change the look of cyberspace
as we know it.
Sun Microsystems, a computer
platform and software develop-
ment fmn in
California,
has
spear-
headed the development of a
programming language called
Java.
No, this new technology has
nothing to do with your morn-
ing cup of coffee, but it is wak-
ing ·up· computer programmers
and web enthusiasts all over the
world.
.
"Up until now," says Barbara
McMullen, Director of Marist's
Department of Academic Com-
puting, ~·the web has been an en-
vironment for everybody. Pub-
lishing on the web hasn't re-
quired much technical expertise,
and really hasn't required any
knowledge of programming. This
aspect of the Internet really
scares computer programmers
and
so,
with Java, Sun is trying
to regain the computer industry's
monopoly on the Internet.''
Java is a computer language
based on C++. It is an intelligent,
compact tool for creating anima-
tion and performing calculations.
Marist has already incorporated
a piece of Java animation on it's
Academic Computing Home

(http://
www.academic.marist.edu). The
exciting thing about Java is how
quickly its animations are trans-
mitted over the. Internet.
In
the
past, to view_ animation on the
Web, animation. files had to be
downloaded off of a web page,
and possibly after
3-4
minutes of
downloading, the animation
could be viewed. With the com-
piled Java script, the animation
is transmitted with the home
page, .and the end-user hardly
realizes an animation is being
transmitted at all.
However, due to software re-
quirements, the moving marquee

Probably one of the most important issues right now first of all is money for clubs
to
operate and the best way to go about [ addressing] that is by raising the activities
fee by roughly
5
or 10 dollars:

.
Also, I think the campus needs to be a little more unified and to do that I have an
idea for
an
'Around the Wodd' on the campus green. What this would be is an

o~portunity for the different clubs and organizations to setup on the campus green
with a booth, giving information, possible sharing ethnic food or ethnic music.

get the freshmen class more involved, get their feet wet. Many can't get

What do you think
is
the most important
issue
facing the students at
Marist.
What
are your plans to do about it?
'There are always old problems like parking and condoms. There's no real one
problem facing the campus.
The one thing I think is a problem is the amount of funds. A proposal has been
tossed around to see whether they can raise the $75 activity fee. A lot of clubs
have applied for a large amount of money which the current activity fee was unable
to handle.
.
A
study asking how raising the activity fee for nex.t
year
[would solve the prob-
lem) would be beneficial to the student body."

Why <lo you think you're th~ best candidate for the position?
"I believe experience is
-
the key to success
.
I
believe
I
have more experience in
student government than my opponent.
I
served in student government two out
of three
years
I'ye
been at Marist.
I
served in all three of the branches. I've served
on the executive board and have had some influence there.
I
put a lot of influence
into student government."
·
3.
What
are
your qualifications?
"Freshmen
year I was president of Marian Hall Resident Student Council. I was
a member of the Student Life Council which is composed of [resident student
council] presidents and examines student life on campus.
I
also did
community
service.
I
was also co-anchor of the Marist College Radio news show.
Sophomore year
I
was elected member of the student judicial board and was Vice
President for Residents on the Student Life Council.
I
was news director of the
college radio.
I
did intra-mural volleyball as well as Model United Nations.
Junior year
I
was Vice President for Student Life and a member of the executive
board. I was
·
president of the student Life council and general manager of Marist
College Radio. I helped move the station to its current location and expanded it."
4.
How are y~u going to make student government more recognizable on cam-
pus?
.
..
"Almost a grass roots kind of thing. You have to combine the power of all the
residents and commuters.
I've helped increase the membership in RSC from 250 students to 500 students.
.
We just have to show students that we are the most effective ways of [bringing
about] change.
I'd like to create a better system for handling our maintenance problems.just to
show that your student government is effective, we hear your concerns and we're
doing something about them."
·
5.
Do you have any suggestions for making the Marist campus safer?
"Every year, student government comes out with its Safety and Security Report.
Security issues such as lighting, parking, after the past few years, security has
responded to it. I think the campus is safe as I've seen in lhe past few years.
Just to listen to student concerns. There was some vandalism on campus. It
wasn't reported. It came up at the RSC meetings. Some cars were vandalized and
security proceeded to conduct an investigation and caught the person who did it.
Keep a finger on the pulse of Marist College [and] you can
keep
_
the campus
safe."

People have been observing
Valentine's Day on February
14
since the Middle Ages, but
there are a variety of explana-
tions of how this holiday began.
According to ''The American
Book of Days," at least two
Saint Valentines shared Febru-
ary
14
as their feast day. One
was a priest from Rome, and the
other was the bishop of
Interainna. They,_were both
beaten · and beheaded · by the
Emperor Clauilius Il in 269
A.O.
Various legendi have been.
passed on. r~gafoing these
saints. One states that one Saint
Valentine was imprisoned. While
he was injail, he fell in
.
love with
~ejailer's daughter, and he sent
her a letter signed "From your
Valentine."
During the Middle Ages, many
people also believed that Febru-
ary
14
was the day the birds be-
gan to mate.
Another theory dates back to
a practice that was performed on
February
14,
the night before the
ancient Roman feast, Lupercaiia.
At that time, the names of young
women were put into
a
box from
which they were drawn by young
men. These men became the
women's partners for the festi-
val and possibly for some time
to come.
One legend from 15th century
England stated that the first per-

Love and all its various permu-

for most of popular music.
So it seems strange that a mu-
sic industry that lives_ and dies

covered
Valentine's Day, the one
day of the year set aside for lov-
ers.
"It's been a really tepid market-
ing tie-in," said Pete Howard,
editor of the trade newsletter Ice,
which monitors when new music
is made and released.
"It carries the same strength as
St. Patrick's Day.
It
barely regis-
ters on the Richter scale."
The second of the two "new"
Beatles songs, "Real Love," is
being released to radio stations
around Valentine's Day, al-
though it won't be available for
purchase until several weeks
later.
Sony Legacy is releasing five
compilations of old love songs
this month, trying to hit a wide
range of tastes: country, soul,
jazz and blues. And two favorite
singers among lovers of all ages,
Barry White and Tony Bennett, ·
plan special interactive events
tied to Valentine's Day. The mu-
sic business tends to focus on
one holiday alone -Christmas.

We:-isendlng to prison?
by cliris#an Bladt.
An.yone who heard about the
two Chicago boys who dropped
a five'-year-old out of a fourteenth
story window had to have been
· shocked. When the incident
oc-
curred two years ago, the public
outrage was not so much over
the fact that they did such a hor-
rible thing, but why they did it.
The boys, now twelve ~d
thir-
teen, say that they dangled Eric
Morse out of the window be-
cause he refused to steal candy
for them from a local store.
It was truly a reprehensible act.
One for which there can be no
excuse. One that can never be
_forgiven. These children un-
questionably need to be pun-
ished and the state of Illinois
agrees. ·
In
fact, at the beginning
of last week, prison sentences
were himded down to the boys.
By state law, they can be re-
leased in five years, but cannot

. Students outraged at unnecessary roughness and
·cruelty in the C~baret
Editor:
This Jetter is in response to an incident we witnessed on February 4, in the Cabaret of the student
.center.
As several. students were enjoying their lovely meals of Cabaret food, we were interrupted by two
maintenance meri infonning us that there was a bird loose in the Cabaret. They told us to finish up and
move in the little room right next to the main eating area.
As we did this, me and my friend sat w~ere we could see what they were doing . The two men had
brooms and were trying desperately to swat at the bird. After this failed, they picked up salt shakers
and threw them
at
the bird, trying in a foolish and aggressive way of getting the bird out of the room.
Finally, they got Frisbees and began throwing them at the bird while laughing. As my friend and I were
getting ready to tell them not to hurt the bird, on of the men hit it and the bird cam crashing to the floor.
When this happened, we both ran out there and began yelling at them. Another student who was
trying to eat in the room crune out and picked up the bird and put it outside because the bird-killer just
held the broom over it, but would not pick it up. I suppose he was enough of a man to harm it, but not
to
pick it up. The student said it somehow flew away with a broken leg.
My friend and I were enraged at such a weak act. We told the man that there was oth~r ways of trying
to get the bird out, like opening the door, or putting some food by the door. I guess the man was just
trying to put on some show, but no one was entertained.
The two men left the room saying that they did not mean to hurt the bird, but they were only throwing
object at it.
·
The way the maintenance men treated the bird was very inhumane and we do not believe that such
acts of animal cruelty should be allowed on campus or anywhere else, whether by employees or
students.
Thank you,

Lack of seating at McCann is

I am writing to you today to call to your attention a problem that
I
encountered last Saturday night.
I,
like many Marist students
went to the Mccann Center. on Saturday to support our Red
Foxes. Upon arriving at McCann,
I
learned that the game was sold
out and that many seats in the designed student section were sold
to the general public,
I.
was outraged by this. With the cost of our
tuition each student could buy several sets of season tickets to
Marist basketball games. More than the financial aspect is the
idea that
I
came

Marist with the understanding that
I
was going
to become part of a small collegiate community. On Saturday
night,
I
felt that Marist was not about students having a good time
but more concerned about making some extra cash. Please take my
letter as a voice from the student community because

that

night. Thank you.

Policies, parking and apathy
Editor:
Students remaih deeply distressed concerning a numberofMarist's
current administrative policies.
I
was reminded of this in an ordeal of
my own this past weekend.
I
should begin by saying that this happening took place less than a
week after my return from visiting an old friend at Connecticut's
Wesleyan University-a trip which had on me a profound effect,
shedding light-'-after almost four years of apathy-an a number of
the thirigs which Marist truly has to offer. But alas, my long-absent,
newly-rediscovered sense of school spirit lingered for less than six
days ..
· I
could at this point proceed to engage in a lengthy diatribe on
every~hing from maintenance woes to the injudicious recent hacks
·• at
the
Academic
Computing budget, but
JwiJI
spare my fellow stu-
dents such affliction in the interest of relative conciseness.
The particular instance provoking this letter involved
a
parking
ticket, which
I
was assaulted with on opting
to
park in
the Dyson Lot
at
3:30
a.m. on Saturday, Feb.
3.
The singular decision to leave my car
in this location was made when, after driving through snow and
moderately high winds on the said morning, and having fishtailed
along Marist roadways, like Route
9,
had not yet been plowed. Find-
ing both Townhouse lots completely full (driving over snow that
was high enough to almost completely mask many of the speed
bumps), I recalled, to my vexation, seeing that the hill to the Hoop
Lot had also not been plowed.
At the time, the logical alternative seemed to be the Dyson Lot. A
supposition apparently made by a number of my fellow students,
each of us under the evidently incorrect assumption thai Safety and
Security would be sympathetic to students in a "just this once"
situation, in the middle of what seemed-at the time-to be a signifi-
cant snow storm.
What we found was much to the contrary. It would be no stretch to
believe that barrage of parking tickets issued in that lot-on Satur-
day morning alone-will, on payment, bring Marist College in ex-
cess of$200. An *extremely* conservative figure.
And I find that this experience calls to attention the purpose of
weekend parking restrictions *in general*-especially in a lot that is
on weekends entirely unused. I believe a similar policy is in effect
regarding the Lowell Thomas Lot, and a similar fate struck students
making parallel decisions in that lot.
If these parking lost are not to be used for such ridiculously absurd
and abominable purposes as parking , perhaps a new committee,
consisting of a few security officials and our dear President Murray,
can perceive fonnulate, and execute an alternative use, such as a
truly quaint, architecturally unique nine-hole miniature golf course.
Indeed, such an endeavor would perfectly supplement our
administration's continuing efforts to transfonn this campus into
one of the Hudson Valley's premier oases, with all the accompanying
snob appeal, while simultaneously reflecting their shrugging aside
any focus on academics (the pursuit of which would clearly have
prioritized the "library" over the *actually* useless Rotunda-and
the parking lot which it replaced.)
I know of many a student with many a similar story. And these
stories connect directly to an issue that far transcends the quanda-
ries of student parking. Perhaps this is the most saddening fact of all:
it hedges harrowingly close to suggesting how little this college
would need do to rectify the school spirit problem.

fun,
huh? Makes you realize
· just how self-contained life'at Marist really is and how
quickly we can
be
pulled away from it. Withjust two
· months remaining in this S.G.A. administration; we are
faced with a great many-things to do and very_little time to
do them in. With many of the goals we s,et in the beginning
of this term either reached or close to being obtained, . .
S.G.A. will refocus and spend the remainder of this adrilin~
istration dealing with internal structural changJs and club
management. Despite efforts in past administrations to
eliminate some of the flaws
in
the S.G.A. Constitution~ there
continues to be more that needs revising. Along with these
revisions,
I
am currently writing a set of S.G.A. by-laws to
regulate how we do business. Along with by-laws for the
organization
as
a whole, we are also revising the by-laws
for each individual executive council. Completion of these
items is planned prior to the end of March. Along thesarrie
· lines,
Jenn
Nocella will
be
working over the next couple of
weeks with club leaders
'
to make any ~ecessacy revisions to
outdated by-laws of our student org¢ations on c~pus. _

and with the support of

themselves, hopefully will be completedby the end of· ·
February. As a side note -
I understand that for all clubs
involved this is short notice, butl foelit is important to
complete it before the tr~ition Of Studert Government in
April. ·_If anybody has
any
concerns about what we are
doing or why please contact me in the S.G.A. office. It's the
home stretch and were moving like a runaway train. Let tis
j1:1st pray that the ''Blizzard of

doesn't make a curtain
call. Otherwise I may spend the rest of the semester in
BDUs and toting a snow shovel.

It's your right, It's your future!
Attention Marist Students: The 1996 election year has arrived!
While voting for our national representatives, we must also focus our attention
on those individuals who are running to represent the student body. These dedi-
cated people are devoted to help better our community here at Marist. SGA has
organized several events to dispaly the candidates to the Student Body. On
February 12th, speeches are taking place in the theater in order to let candidates
express their platforms. On the following day,
MCTV
will be hosting a debate on
channel 13 at 10:00 p.m. And most importantly, the elections will be held on
February 19th and 20th in Dyson and the Student Center. ·
As
American citizens, the sole power to vote is in our hands, therefore it is up to
us to choose the ideal candidate to make our voices heard. As we strive toward
tomorrow, we need to make changes for our generation today. If you care about
your future, vote and make a difference.
Think
about this, "not voting is like tying
a gag around your mouth; your voice will never be heard."

SLC's main fiinction, however is not to program, but to act as an advocacy

SPORTS WITH

SMrri.Y
The winter has been
'
cold and
so has the men's swim team.
After
17
consecutive wins, dat-
ing back to last season, the swim-
mers lost three straight dual
meets to St. John's, Colgate; and
the most
·
recent one being the
Rams of Fordham University.
The returning swimmers.feel
that they are a better
team
this
year. This doesn't inake sense.
Last season, Marist won their
conference, went undefeated,
but now dropped
three
consecu-
tively. The excuse
.
can't be the
one
that
the Metro Atlantic Ath-
letic Conference is too tough of
a conference. In fac~
it
is con-
sidered a more respected confer-
ence but Marist didn't lose
to
any
teams in the
MAAC.
-
The dual
meets that they lost Wef!! against
schools that were in other con-
ferences. St. John's is in the Big
East,
Colgate is in the Atlantic
10, while Fordham competes in
the Patriot league. The competi
-
tion is a lot better this
year
but
not solely
•
because Marist has
joined the MAAC. The excuses
seem to be of another nature.

else. People always
.
say that everyone has a bad day
but three bad days in a
.
row!
There are a few possible reasons
·._.
why the team has been slacking
.
:
·
off.
.
.
. ·
}
,.
First of all, Marist has only 17
·
swimmers opposed to ~e 21
m,a,n
squad from last year.
·
'This pre~ ·.
·
sents the
·
.
problem of limited
choice for head
.
coach Larry
Van Wagner.
.
This also creates
less competition within the team.
Competition for positions usu-
ally motivates athletes to s
·
tay in
top
form
an
_
d keep working hard.
Secondly, the Rea Foxes losta
great deal of experience. They
·
.
graduated
seven senior§ -la~t.-
·
·
year and only remain ·with six .
swimmers that are juniors and
seniors
:
This lackofexperience
'
could
:
account
.
for the suqden
losing streak. Tile
.
freshman
dass could still be getting accus-
tomed
to
the
.
world ofcoJJegiate
athletics and not know how
.
to
prepare for these meets
.
with so
few seniors to guiqe them.
·
Lastly, the swimmers could just
be taking their winning ways for
granted
:
.
N:one of the sopho-
mores ever lost in college until
.
this year. This could be a con-
tributing factor since maybe
af-
.
ter the first loss
,
Maristcouldn't
handle the idea of losing and the
.
pressure got the better of them.

As
expected, the
.
men's Swim-
ming and
.
Diving team lost to
Fordham University 142.:.104 at
the McCann
·
Center last Thurs-
day night.
According to men's swimming
coach
Larry
.
Van Wagner, ''We
swam against the inost difficult
team on the schedule.
.
They
(Fordham) have
three
swimmers
that have the potential to win
nine events, we knew thaL"
The
defeat was the
third
meet
in a row in which Red Fox oppo-
nents have been sent home with
a loss. The Red Foxes will now
prepare
.
for
.
the
.
Metro
.

According to Van
Wagner, the team is well on it's
way to perfomung
.
well in the
Championships.
''Hopefully all 20 of the ath1etes
will perfonn not only at the
high-
est level of this past season but
at the highest level of their ca-
reer."
.
Freshman Matthew St. Lucia
qualified for the Eastern Colle-
giate Ath1etic Conference Cham-
pionships with his best perfor-
mance of the season in the
3
meter diving evenL
According to diving coach
Melanie Bolstad, this is the first
time ever that
three
male
·
divers
will
beattencling theECAC Cham-
pionships that
take
place at the
end of March and run into the
first week of April.
Bolstad was relieved that St.
Lucia qualified
_
before the Con-
ference
·
Championships.
"At Iona College the boards
aren't very good," she said.
"Our goal was to qualify before
we went."
Another high point for the
divers was sophomore Chris
Blackwell as he set a schoo]
record in
the
3
meter dive, post-
ing a 298.87, breaking the school
record that he had set one year
ago.
·
.
:
Despite the current losing
streak; Van Wagnerdoesn'tseem
to be worried, saying that he is
satisfied with the perfonnance of
the
swimmers.
·
"During a taper you are look-
ing for any signs of the taper
having a positive effect on an
athJete," Van Wagner said. ''You
can see a greater percentage gain
speed
and the
ability
to control
the pace of events, that is what I
was looking for."
His confidence going
.
into the
championships can be related to
the fact that the two best events
·
.
of the meet
.
for the
Red
.
Foxes
were
the
1,000
meter
freestyle and
the
500
meter freestyle. This ac-
cording to Van Wagner is where
you can see the speed come out.
Sophomore Chris O'Conner
finished
_
first in the
500
free post-
ing a time of 4:57 .66. He also
came in
third
in
the
l,OOOfreestyle
(10:18.93), equaling his season
best times.
Before the start of this final dual
meet -Of the season the Seniors,
as well as
their
parents, were hon-
ored in a ceremony to recognize
their contribution to the success
of the team.
