Rachel Ammons.
''There was a lot of noi

Many students were
dis-
m~yed at the fact that they did
not have Internet connection
until Sept. I 1, two weeks after
they arrived.
Residents also complained
that they rarely had hot water.
~
The Housing Office reacted to
this complaint by contacting
maintenance that turned up the
water boiler temp
e
rature from
200
degrees to
210
degrees
.
After the boiler was turned up,
there were no more complaints
regarding Water, according to
English.
"We (Housing) try to act as
PAGE3
an ally to the students," English
said. "The night before stu-
dents were to move in
,
we real-
ized that there were no shower
curtains, so we ran out and pur-
chased shower curtains for all
bathrooms in the West Cedar
townhouses

"
.
Housing listened to student in-
put and responded accordingly,
English said
.
"We purchased new furniture
including adjustable beds that
allow students to make them
higher
,
or lower as needed,
which is especially helpful when
bunking the beds," she said.
"We used student feedback to
buy furniture that was really
flexible t6 residents' needs."

Students spend
summer
atl)isl].ey
by
JENNIFERMATARAZW
Staffiyriter
While most college students
spent their summers locked up
in a·crnmped office filing papers,
a few students had the unique
opportunity to intern in one of
the happiest places in America,
Disney World.
Of course spending the entire
summer with Mickey and the
rest of the gang is not the daily
grind, but it beats busing tables
on the weekends. We all have
the inner desire to be
a
kid again
and seven Marist • students did
just that. Afte~ all,cwhat
·a
better
place to fulfill this dream than
Disney World.

Lynbrook, NY and Hurlbut a
freshman from Roxbur,y, CT, are
experiencing living at college
for the first time. According to.
the Admissions Office about
176 transfer students and 855
freshmen started off the fall I 998
semester.

Butcher.
"The week before I left I was
so excited, I just wanted to
leave," she said, "but the last
night I was home I could not go
to sleep at all and in the morn-
ing I had __ a stomachache and I
was nervous, but I found out it
was not.really that bad."
Hurlbut said she enjoys her
classes and the social life, but
is finding it difficult to fill up her
day with things to do.
"The classes are great and I
arn going to join some clubs and
there seems to
be
a lot of school
spirit, but I never expecte9 to
have this much free time," she
said.
Classes at Marist, according
to Butcher who transferred from
Nassau Community College,
NY, are very different.
'.'The classes at Marist are
a
: lot harder, a lot more wotk,,,she
. said. ''.Also, people here seem
. to take school work more seri-
ously.''
Butcher, who hopes to make
the Dean's list, said she has
learned a lot about herself so far.
''I thought it would be a lot
h,arder for me to st.µt something
new, to get up and leave and go
to school and not
be
so close to
my family," she said. "I thought
I would not be able to deal with
it
as
well
as
I am and I am really
happy that I can be okay with
that."
Hurlbut said she has already
learned that the days seem like
they go by too fast.
"In high school I was like aJJ I
want-to do is go to college," she
said, "and now I kind of wish I
was still back in high school
because I want not to always
rush things.''

are informative and fun.
How many times have you sat
in class and the professor starts
talking about some current
event in the world and you have
know idea what he or she is talk-
ing about? Well, a quick way to
access current eventsinforma-
tion is getting on on·e • of the
news web-sites. CNN, ABC,

web~sites. Many ·home.town
television stations and newspa-
pers have web-sites as well.
The news web-sites are usu-
ally updated often with the ·lat-

·
contact. The stories are easy to
follow and the photos and

The new drama

largely through the eyes of
Shane O'Shea (Ryan Phillippe),

bartender. He takes 9n the moni-
ker ''Shane 54" as he makes a
name for himself in the club. His
character can

monument to excess and a case
of blind ambition

He becomes enthralled with Julie

Black (Neve Campell), a soap
opera star who frequents the
club. Her character is an enig-

Shane thinks he is looking for.
She is glamorous and high pro-

recreated with sincerity and
captured beautifully.

The Urge~
_
Mas·ter Of Styles
For the better part of a decade
The Urge have been forking on
the edge of
,
the musical under-
grouhd, with a rapidly develop-
ing fanbase and ready to cx-
p1ode into
the mainstream. With
their release of Master Of Styles
they have done just that The
first single off of the album,
"Jump
Right
lil",
earned a spot
in MTV's regular rotation this
summer, and for good reason .
Boasting a loud three piece horn
section
,
powerful guitars and
cutting percussion, the Urge
deliver a heavy hitting mix of ska
and hardcore. Featuring vocal
stylings by frontman Steve
Ewing, and even guest vocals
by Nick Hexum of
311
fame.
"Jump Right In .. has become a
fan favorite.
The rest of the album ranges
from the very heavy to the very
funky. with several tunes an-
gling towards the metal and
hardcore end of the spectrum.
Not once does the Urge slip into
the commonplace cliches of
modern ska,- choosing instead
to take a fresh, more direct route
.
towards songwriting. The album
rocks from beginning to end.
Now and again the band also
treads into rap territory, but
never without forgetting their
roots. The
CD
also comes with
a multimedia extra
,
featuring a
playable video game demo and
sever.11 videos of the band in
action, as
·
well as other features.
So if you
'
re in the mood for an
album that doesn't let you down
until the last guitar fades out,
Master Of Styles is a definite
winner.
Top 5 most annoying

Our summer was riddled by
· innumerable ongoing
_
and
unnecessary events that
dragged our collective states

of consciousness through the
mud. Why doesn't tabloid
fodder like this· happen in
Canada or Mexico? Maybe
because we are the ones who
buy into it...
I.
The Lewinksy scandal.
Didn't anyone sto to think
that Clinton's mishap was just a
regular day at the office for JFK?
·

2. Ginger Spice leaves the Spice
Girls. Sure it happened in May
,
but I was still pretty upset.
What will she do
for
work now'?
3. Alleged death of"actor" Ron
Jeremy. A true genius was lost.
4. Prophecies for the end of the
world in 2000.
Certainly we
have become accustomed to
this, and we will see even more

What can this year's
success
be attributed to? The combina-

energy could be the key to this
year's team. The
team

.
Junior Tom Henry says he
thinks
.
his· team is noticeably
better this season.
'These
two meets (al Lehigh
and Hartfo_rd) are good indica-

tors of how m

uch this team has
improved from last year, and

how much this team can do
throughout the rest of the sea-

Henry said.
"This
is the

Marist has had in
a
long time.
"
c;oiaizzo reaffirmed Henry's
statement.

"This isthe deepest team that
I
have coached in my eight years
at Marist," Colaizzo said.
This Friday, the cross coun-
try teams travel to South Bend,
Indiana, where they will compete
in the

by the
University of Notre Dame. The

They are led by freshman Liza
