... continued from page 1.
amount of chaos surrounding it that
is
being indicated by the grievances.
. This was the first SGA election in which
electronic voting booths were used.
Assalti said the addition of the voting
booths was
an
important change.
"Most people haven't ever voted in a
voting booth before," she said. "I think
it
was good that they go the opportunity to
because maybe now they'll vote in a na-
tional election."
Assalti said she wanted to have another
polling place
in
Dyson Center, but it was
too difficult to move the machines. They
would not fit on the truck.
On Monday evening, Feb.
24,
Assalti
presented her election results to the SGA
executive board, which includes all ap-
pointed. positions, including executive
vice president, vice president for student
life, and vice president for clubs.
On Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 26,
Assalti presented the findings to the Sen-
ate during a legislative session. Since the
Senate was in legislative session, she is
prohibited from revealing what was dis-
cussed at-the meeting.
Now, the matter is being turned over to
the judicial branch and Chief Justice Ja-
son Sprague.
Pat Mara, student body president, said
it
is
at the judicial board's discretion
as
to
whether the grievances will be reviewed
and what action, ifany, will be taken.
Mara also said the elections are now
official, but at any point, there could be
changes made.
"My election from last year could be
overturned," he said. ''There's always a
chance to overturn an election, no matter
how far into an administration,
if
there's
enough proof [ of wrongdoing]."
Sprague is currently investigating the
grievances and is unable to comment on
the situation.

BiGaLa becomes chartered club
... continued from page 1.
Trapani said the club encountered no
major obstacles in being chartered and
only had to rewrite its by-laws a couple of
times.
Erik Molinaro, executive vice president
for
SGA,
said he is glad the club got char-'
tered because he feels it will open the eyes
of the Marist community to many things.
"I think it's really critical that they were
given their charter to openly recognize
their organization as a club by the Marist
community," he said. "It was a long time
coming, and
I
was very happy to see it
get passed," he said.
· Molinaro said the chartering process
took so long because of administrative
procedures.
_
"I think it was just a question of the ad-
ministering of priority points and the 10
member list and a lot of administrative
hurdles that they had to go through," he
said.

Food Babe
My friend, Matthew; called me
and said,
"I
have a perfect place
for you,
food babe!"
It
seems

. of my friends address me in that
manner, using my title
as
if it was
derogatory horrible thi:i:ig. They
\."Olild say,"'Where are you go-·
ihg
this
week;
food babe,
huh?
Um, food babe, can you pass me
'. the salt?" and finish off with a ·
· snicker.
I
guess sufferi~g comes
with the territory. (Sigh, hand to
the forehead.)
Matthew took me to Dicken's
English Pub
&
Tea Garden in
Poughkeepsie, near Pizzeria Uno.
He said that I would get "other
homesick" for England at this
place. I thought,
'hmm,
we'll see
how it Jives up to a REAL En-
glisli°pub. ·
. Upon entering the establish-
ment, I see that wood was in ef-
fect, which is always a good sign
of authenticity. I was looking .
forward to sitting at one of the
solid oak table near the bar. I was
very displayed to sit in the "tea
garden" section of the place.
l
labeled it "the girlie room", with
its pinkness and white cast iron
patio
furniture.
(HINT:
Never ask
for non-smoking, unless you
want to sit in "the girlie room".)
As I debated over the luncheon
menu, we tried to catch up on
each other.
I
hadn't seen him for
ages!
I
gave him his belated
Christmas/birthday gift. We or-
dered drinks too (hey,
I
just took
two mid-terms the day before). I
was saddened to see my pint of
Guinness in a fat, barrel glass
mug instead of the trumpet-like
glass.
I
was still experiencing
self-doubts and high anxiety
over what I wanted for lunch.
Everything on the luncheon
menu was between $5.95-6.95
and included a garden salad. We
decided to share an appetizer and
picked the Picadilly Circus Potato
Skins with crab meat. Matthew
decided on the Sir James chicken
teriyaki sandwich with grilled
onions .
.
As the waitress turned
' to
ine, lknew
I
had told a bold
face lie about· knowing what
I
wanted to order. In the nanosec-
ond, I felt the crushing weight of
indecisiveness almost killing me!
I
truly did not know what
I
wanted.
I
didn't even have a list
offirst, second and third picks. I
HAD NOTHING! So, in
a
truly
irrational, arbitrary moment, I
chose the fish
&
chips, even
though I didn't even feel like fish!
I am such a silly girl sometimes.
I reassured myself, 'Okay,
Josie, look on the bright side of
things. You can compare their
fish
&
chips with REAL .fish
&
chips. Also, you can redeem
yourself in the desert section.'
While waiting for oui- dishes,
Matthew told me of the theme
menus for dinner. In January,
they had a 'Garlic is King Festi-
val'. Right now, they are featur-
ing German Cooking and from
March
14-17, "Pot of Gold" high-
lights Irish cooking. I perused
the dinner menu and found the
prices a bit staggering, ranging
from$12.95-16.95. Ifoundtheir
titles a bit cheesy for my tastes.
For example, "Stonehenge Veal",
or "Brigh~on Beach Veal", or the
White Cliffs of Dover." Maybe
ifl wasn't familiar with England,
I
would have found these titles
amusing. But
I
do know for a
fact that Stonehenge is not fa-
mous for its veal and neither is
Picadilly Circus for its Potato
Skins. (The T.G.I.F. in Picadilly
Circus serves potato skins, but
that's the closest one can get.)
The Potato Skins with crabmeat
were 'brill', though.
The fish & chips were not. First
of all, the chips were not 'chips'.
They were french fries desper-
ately wanting to be chips. Sec-
ond of
all, it was served in a bas-
ket .lined with fake newspaper
· paper. (I thought, 'there was ef-
fort there'.)
In contrast,
Matthew's sandwich was splen-
did and plentiful.
I'm proud to say that
I
did re-
deem myself in the desert sec-
tion.
I
was tom between two-the
Olde' English Sherry Trifle
($3.95) which is cream custard,
strawberries,
raspberries,
peaches and a sherry-soaked
pound cake. Matthew pledged
allegiance on this dish but was
too stuffed to order
it.
My other
choice was the Irish Cream Bash,
which was white chocolate
mousse, chocolate cake crumbles
and brownie shortbread and a
touch of Irish Creme. I was in
the mood for chocolate, so ... A
TOTAL YUM FEST!
I suggest going for lunch (not
too crowded) and not having the
.fish and chips and leaving room
for desert. After spring break, I
will
probably return for the trifle.
To quote Wayne from Wayne's
World .. .'Oh, yes ... it will be
mine ... .'

Not to dwell on my complete
lack of coolness
(I
need not even
say that-I live in New Jersey), but
the perfect example was the infa-

incident. Okay, so maybe it is
just infamous amongst my high
school trackteam. One evening,
I joined my infinitely cooler team-
mates and sneaked over to
an-
- other hotel while staying over-
night at the Penn Relays. ·
On
the way back, we
all
climbed
over a rather high ferice that sepa-
rated the hotels. Well, THEY all
climbed over iL I was the last
one over and my shorts got stuck
on the fence.
I
mean, really
stuck. I lost my balance and
.was
caught, suspended by my shorts,
and just sort of dangled off ·the
fence.
I completely lost the only drop
of cool I ever had when my
shorts began to slowly rip, right
down the back.
I took my denim shirt and tied
it
around my waist;through the
other side of the fence as calmly
as possible, keeping my exclama-
tions and profanity down to a
dull roar. (Yes, this was

shirt I had on.
I
do
realize
that had Ijust taken off my shirt
in an attempt to draw less atten-
tion to myself, it may have gone
over about
as

that fence).
So my teammates just sort of
_
froze, not knowing what to. do,
tears welling in their eyes as they
tried desperately not to laugh at
my unfortunate predicament.
One even asked if I was "okay."
Only after the incident attracted
the attention of numerous secu-
rity guards and most of the· other
track teams, as well as my
coaches and other teammates
peering out their hotel windows,
did a teammate, slightly stunned

Compare this with the NBA,
which has more than double the
head coaches. It appears though
that baseball may not be alone.
The NFL also has only three Af-
rican-American head coaches.
To make matters worse, of the
eleven coaching changes so far
this NFL off-season, not one has
been an African-American .
One of ihe more touching mo-
ments I can remember happened

pionship trophy; hebegan to cry.

was that Robinson could have

Baseball is doing the right thing

cating this entire season to him.
One has to wonder, however, if
they are doing it because it is the

politically correct thing to do, or
if the reason is a genuine one.
