Eliot Clauss, president of the US-China Chamber of Commerce, spoke at the
symposium entitled, "Doing business with China" last Wednesday.
Symposium focuses on international business
by
TIM
MANSON
Staff
Writer
Eliot Clauss, president of the US- China
Chamber of Commerce, headed
a
panel
of.China experts in a symposium entitled
"Doing Business in China" last Wednes-
day.
Clauss, who is a partner in the interna-
tional finn of Peltz
&
Walker in New York
City, stressed the legal importance of
dealing with China in tenns of the impor-
tance of a good legal contract.
. "Try to get as detailed a contract
as
you can," said Clauss in his speech. "It's
not a matter of the American way or the
Chinese way, but a matter of international
business."
· Clauss said that in order to understand
Chinese business, Americans also have
·10
iinaerstand 'their culture.
_
. "The
legal
system in Chiria is a work
in
progre·ss," said Clauss. '"They have the
l:!asic components, but we haven't fig-
ured out how they all work there yet."
Other speakers included Peter Boland,
the Senior Vice President for Marine Mid-
land bank, who spoke about the
convertability of_ western. currency in
China and Robert Sun, the Chainnan of
Sun International Group, who talked
. about the importance of personal con-
nections in China.
The symposium, which was organized
to help businesses better deal with the Chi-
nese market,
was
offered in conjunction
with the Southern Dutchess Chamber of
Commerce and its Windows on Wuhan
trade initiative.
. According to Tony O'Brien, director of
Corporate and Professional Education and
organizer of the event, the Windows on
Wuhan Program was designed to help lo-
cal companies get started in <;hjnese busi-
ness.
·
"Its primary purpose is to promote and
facilitate trade and commerce between the
United States and China, but more spe-
cifically, between the Hudson Valley and
the Wuhan region of China," said O'Brien.
O'Brien also stressed the significance
of the question and answer period follow-
ing the speakers
as
being
as
important
as
the
speeches themselves.
"It was precisely what we wanted it to
be," said O'Brien.
"Really an exchange
not only between the audience and
the
panelists,
but also among the audience
so
the people with varying expertise either in
other countries or in China were helping
each other out."
'
O'Brien said he thought the program
was excellent overall, and it was one of
the best programs to come to Marist.
"I thought we had a number of heavy
hitters there, and a good range fo speak-
ers with high expertise and reputation,"
said O'Brien.

Career Quest: Career Tests
Jonathan Karl, author and journalist for the Cable News
Network (CNN), delivered a speech entitled, "Leave it to
Be&vis:
Election '96 and Generation X" yesterday in the
·
Cabaret.
by
AMIE LEMIRE
A &E editor
_The other day, I was talking to-
an old friend of mine who just
picked up a Communication ma-
jor just last semester. This friend
is a senior and, miraculously.will
complete his Communication re-
quirements by the summer of
1997. I asked my friend, "What
.
made you decide to change your
major, especially so late in your
college career?"
The answer: "I woke up and
realized that I was stuck in a field
that I didn't wantto be in any-
more. Instead of coming to this
conclusion 10 years into a job that
I hate, I decided that I can change
my major, even this late in the
game, and work on a career that
I'm truly interested in."
·
The point of the story is that it
wasn't too late for my friend.
However, he could have come to
this decision a lot earlier
if
only
he'd taken advantage of the Ca-
reer Services' "Career Tests."
(Oh, you knew that the Career
Service Office would be in this
articJe somewhere!)
But seriously, there are two on-
line career tests at the Office,
designed specifically to help stu-
dents figure out what they are
interested in., The Strong Inter-
-
est Inventory Test helps to iden-
tify general areas of interest and
activities and occupations that
you might be interested in.
There are six types of occupa-
tional themes-Realistic, Inves-
tigative, Conventional, Artistic,
Enterprising, and Social. While
some people may fall into more
than one category, everyone fits
into at least one.
I took this test, and
it
mapped
out my personality and interests
pretty accurately. While it
pointed out that I fell under the
Artistic category-which I al-
ready knew-it pointed out that
my second strongest category
was Social, an aspect which I
never really considered myself as
before
.
Very interesting.
The Meyers-Briggs
Type
Indi-
cator is a test that helps to figure
out what type of person you are.
The test has four different scales
to determine your personality,
based on certain qualities. This
test is more of a personality indi-
cator than an occupation test, but
in detennining your personality,
you can better decide what kind
of career you would fit into.
s
For example, if you are an Ex-
traverted individual who prefers
spontaneity over logic and fact,
then a cubicle/ desk job would
not be suited for you. On the
other hand, if you are an Intro-
verted person, who would rather
work with facts and figures, you
wouldn't be right in a social
worker's job, dealing with people
everyday. Do you get the point
here?
Th~se tests can be gold mines
for some people, particularly
thQse who are having trouble
deciding on a career or major.
-
While the results of the tests
shouldn't surprise you, (mean-
ing, you should have some kind
of inkling towards what kind of
personality you have) they
might open up your eyes to an
interest or career you never pre-
viously saw yourself in. Besides,
it's kind of neat to see what per-
sonality quirks you have, what
makes you different from every-
body else.
So, come down and
try
these
tests out. It's good to have some
direction in life, and the Strong
and Meyers-Briggs can help you
get on the right track. So, get
going!

Letter to the Editor
Never forge
your
adviser's signa.ttu:e ·
Over 1he course of my past six and a half semesters at Marist, I have learned ~everal,
things through classroom experiences, but it was not until recently that I realized if . Editor: .
was possible to incorporate much of this information together.
Jj:an
remember
conversing with my friends in high school and questioning why certain coufseswere_
manda1ory. Why would I ever need to know the dates of World War II or what the
components of a nucleus are? But, now I know that somewhere along the·line, every
ounce of infonnation
gets pieced together and is equally necessary.
I am realizing that it is a good idea to leave· room for electives by senior year. This
has exposed me to a variety of new issues and areas of study. I am
talcing
courses
now that are not directly part of my ·field of study, some because they fit in·wi$ my
honors program, and others just because the topics interest me.
:y believe this is
important for-several reasons.
.
:
Once.again;'the time of year has.come when everyone should have regi~~ for spring
~ourses .
.
I just wanted to.take a moment
to
address.an important issue in the registration
process. This. is about yourAcademic Adviser. ·Academic advisers are assigned to
us
to help us through otir years at Marist. Not only is there advice needed about what
courses we should take, but·their signature is also required for registration •. This is a
crucial part of the registration process.
..
.."

~.
The purpose of our adviser's signature is to ensurethat we are ·on ·the right path. They
keep· us following the ·required courses needed to graduate .. This signature is some-
. thi~g we all must take the tii:ne to get.
As
smalias the signature may be, the forging of
a signature could have detnmental effects on your career as.a student. This act can
result in immediate dismissal from the college, the·Joss of classes, probation, or even
community serv!ce:
.
First of all, talcing a wide v~ety of courses has provided me \Vith different ways of
viewing my major by incorporating knowledge from several different areas: This· has
also cnahled me to take courses with different p~ofessors and students than I was ·
previously familiar with. I have noticed that as different people integrate their own
experiences and perspectives in the analysis of a problem or issue, the class emerges
with new insight into each topic.
No~ as _little as that signature appears, is it really wroth it to have a friend sign a

I believe _students of all majors could also benefit from. talcing a variety of courses. I hope you all took the time to meet with your advisers to get their advice and signature.

There's
no
pl3:ce.like<hofue?
Mid-semester break was the first time fv.rerilhome sinceTcrurieto Marist .. I was
ecstatic ahout the idea of getting
all
thosehome cooked meals; t~ng
a
shower in my
own bathroom, and seeing everyone at home. But, all of those wonderful things were
not as wonderful as I thought they would have been.
. ._.· . _. · .
·
I quickly got sick and tired ofeating so muchfood .. Sinc~ I am not used to eating
food in such quantity or with su.ch taste, it was a change to actually eat REAL food.
Maybe my stomach shrunk, or maybe iny appetite 1s not
as
big as it used to be.
Everyone knows that talcing a shower without flip-flops.and a shower caddy is
wonderful. This aspect of honie definitely lived up to my expectations: It v,,as so nice
to have water with d~~n,t pressure and a stc::ady temper~ture. At first, the water
pressure was shockingly strong,.but after five minutes I got used to it and
.
J
knew I
was home. Having the bathroom e11tirely to myself was incredible.-There·were not
people brushing their teeth or washing their dirty dishes next to me.I was definitely
in heaven!
·.
.
·
· ·
·
·
When I went home, I thought I would be overjoyed lo see my family and friends
again, However, it was wierd to actually have parents watching over me. !did riot get
used to this apsect, and I do not know ifl will be ableto when I go home again.
.
Some ofmy friends happened to be home the same weekend that Twas. Jwas
excited wheii I found this out However, our schedules did notconnect, and I did not
get to spend as much timewith everyone as I would have hoped to. Those that I did
see seemed as though they had ~hanged, and it was not necessarily for the best. This
definitely did not live up to my expectations of going home.
Going home was not all I thought it was going to be. I really dci not know the reason
for this. Maybe
it
is because things do not always tum out the way you hope they
will. Maybe it is because the more things change, the more they stay the same. That
might have been the case. I do know that the next time I go home, I will not have such
high expectations. Thatway, everything may turn out better.

on
students-in M'arist's halls. The most obvi~us is the red, slightly inflamed nose. Many of
those afflicted have low self~teem and a fear of opening glass doors. ···
The most common cause of the•freshman nose is the attempting to open a door in the
opposite direction of which it was designed to open. The student jerks the door toward
him. The door gives slightly, but springs back in the opposi~ direction. Due to the
unfortunate law of inertia, the student is thrown toward the door, nose first
, The p!iysical pain and appearance is by no means·as
bad-as
the anguish and utter
humiliation caused by this episode. This frequently occurs at the Donnelly Computer
Lab. After a student's first attempt to open the dQ()r toward him, he finds himself
· trapped like a rat. This attracts the attention of the entire lab. Then, once the paralysis
of fear lifts, the victim is able
to
push himself out the door. Only after several days does
the victim muster up the courage to re-enter the lab. He spends his evenings over
at
Lowell Thomas, a bit of a hike from the freshmen dorms.
There is a solution to this epidemic ravaging the student body. Perhaps it is a little
more liberal than most of us would like to be, but under these grave conditions, you
must agree that drastic measures need to be taken. Just~ our society has become more
tolerant of people with different sexual preferences, the same should go for doors.
Marist College should install and tolerate doors that "swing both ways."
Mr.
Wells may
be taken· aback, but maybe he would see that this is the
1990s and his time machine was,
or is, a success, even
if
it is purely fictional •

Bill Clinton has done a lot of good for this country, despite several missteps and blunders along the

In the two years since, we have
gone from
a
pitiful plea demanding
relev:mce to a resounding rein-
forcement of his position as leader
of the greatest nation on earth.
Among Dole's last-ditch attempts
-at seizi,ig the reigns of this country
- were an onslaught of character at-
tacks and numerous reminders of
Clinton's "liberal agenda." Ironi-
cally, among the things that did not

,uple of whacks with my billy

that Amcrfcans
are
just comfortable
with Clinton, ringmaster of the cir-
cus in Washington.
The road to economic ruin
Bill Clinton has secured his second term as presi-
dent, and he will spend the remainder of his term
try~ng to secure a place in history as the president
who refonned welfare and healthcare. America
hopes he succeeds, but
in
a way, this Clinton vic-
tory may be an American defeat. As social prob-
·· 1ems continue to fester in our nation, the government will continue
to feed them by funding the catalyst to failure; government spon-
sored social programs. Big business can step aside and make way
for liberal spending and out of control government intervention.
The United States gained prosperity
through massive industrial explosion.
With the firm grapple hold of government
regulation, no runount of private indus-
try can create jobs and strengthen the
economy. So, instead of businesses com-
peting for expanding industries to create
more jobs and lowering the national defi-
cit while doing it, the American people
will continue to wallow in a cycle of de-
pendency imitating a socialist regime.
America must wean itself off the sti-
fling programs of Franklin D. Roosevelt.
FDR helped Americans out of the nation's
worst depression ever, but more than 50
years later we should realize that the New
Deal did not thrust America into the years
of economic prosperity that ensued. In
I 938,
two years into FDR's second term,
America's economy had not pennanently
recovered. Businesses that had been
temporarily helped by the new social pro-
grams now took the New Deal legislation
to the Supreme Court, and FDR had to
defend his programs with an all-out te-
nacity. The Supreme Court struck down
many programs, and then Congress de-
nied passage of an FDR suggested-bill
that gave the president authority to raise
the number of Supreme Court Justices.
The Court Packing plan had been con-
ceived to help FDR win Supreme Court
cases that threatened his social reform

In
one scene, when
Romeo plays pool at a local hang-
out, he has to flash a ticket in
order to retrieve his gun-"No
ticket, No Gun" reads the sign
on the counter.
The movie is very fast-paced
at times, with lots of quick cuts,
and jump shots. Some parts
could double for an MTV Buzz
Clip. Luhnnan also speeds some
scenes up into fast motion,
mostly to emphasize action. It's
an
odd technique, arid can con-
fuse the-eye. -
. ··
-
. -
-
Also, the introduction of the
characters is similar to that of .
''Trainspotting" with a photo still
of the character, and bold type
declaring the character's name.
The establishing of setting
and
character was
very
"Tarantino-esque" .... slo-mo
shots of Tybalt's silver-heeled
boots crushing a cigarette, freeze
frame shots of the Montague
Boys, wreaking havoc through-
out· the streets.
While the rivalry between the
families is a major theme in the
movie, it is interlaced quite nicely
with the romance.
Romeo & Juliet is both a love
story and a tragedy, and to up-
set the balance between these
two elements would .ruin the
whole story. Luckily, Luhrman
handles this well.
Still another theme is threaded
into the movie-water.
It plays a big role. Romeo first
spies Juliet through a larger-
than-life fish
tank.
They sperid a
good deal of the movie wet.
Romeo slays Tybalt on
~
cold,
rainy night: Romeo swears his
undying love for Juliet as he
sinks below the surface of the
Capulet
swimming
pool.
Mercutio is slain on the shores
of the ocean.
One possible reason· for this
water theme is the idea of cleans-
ing. Underwater, Romeo and
Juliet are not rivals; their names
are meaningless and they are just
two people in love. Below the
surface of the water, everyone is
equal, ordinary.
There are numerous perks to
the movie, including a cameo by
Des'ree, and a gospel version of
"When Doves Cry", plus the vi-
sual pleasure of many Romeo
close-ups.
Yes ladies, Leonardo is deli-
cious both wet and dry. This
alone should get you running to
the theaters.
This movie may get slammed
for being too "trendy" or "MTV-
ish••;. but it does deserve credit
for going out on a limb. The very
idea of adding guns, drugs, ~nd
gender-bending to a Shakespeare
play is quite risky, even a bit lu-
dicrous.
However, Baz Luhrman and his
cast pull it off, giving the classic
story of star-cross'd lovers a
shiny new look set to a bass-
thumping pace.
A final warning though:
if
you
have to read "Romeo
&
Juliet"
.for English class, don't think this
will substitute-better stick to
those Cliff's Notes after all.

·
As Jeru points out, ''There is
so much Ying-Yang, it's ridicu-
lous."
This· statement remains clear
throughout all the songs on the
album.
·
On top of an that, the album is
produced by the G~ru and D.J.
Premier (who next to the GZA
from Wu-Tang, is one of the best
D.J.'s out there).
As you listen to the cuts, the
beats and the rhymes are strictly
on point.
They flow so well, you would
· think that Premier's and Jeru's
minds work
as
one. Which they
might, I don't know.
Jeru has come with "Wrath of
the Math" to save the world of
hip-hop in a state of emergency.
The only way for him to win is
for you to help fight the cause
and buy Jeru the Damaja's
"Wrath of the Math" or else

leave it up to you to interpret the
songs so that you will stay true

while you listen.,
"Drop The Oppressor (D.T.O.)"
is
by far the best song, (in my
opinion) as well as being the best
song on the album.
Other notable tracks are "Suf-

Two ·organizations receive charters
.
Rec('nlly, the Marist College Student Government
.
has chartered
two new organizations under the Honorary Council. We were proud
to r~cognize the Society of Professional Journalism, and Phi Delta
Epsilon. a,medicaVpre-health fraternity. Each organization will surely
strengthl!n the academic programming, as well
as
provide new op-
portuni1 ks for members.
Regrl!llably, the charter of another organization was lost. Because
there
i~
,m appeal pending, I do not wish to comment. However, it is
never pkasant to see an organization disband.
We \\
ill
hopefully see the chartering of several other clubs this
semes1('r. In the coming weeks,
I
am
confident that the Marist Col-
- lege('omputer Society will return to the campus. In addition,
it
is
hopeful that BiGaLa will finally be recognized. However, the Social
Servkc Council is currently capped.
Man)
of
the clubs and organizations have already done
a fine
job
throu!!h programming and service. My hope is they keep up the fine
work .
