Staff Writer
The year 2000 is going to bring
many ch~ges according to sev-
eral Maiist College Students.
Some changes deal just with
. us; here at Marist, while other
changes deal with predi~tions
to come for the world. ·
Freshman Ryan Finger said he
hopes for solutions to prol}lems
·ihat have begun this millenium.
"I
hope to see th.it we will all
work togetht:r to make progress
· in eradicating the problems that
we have made this century," he .

Reading and writing are two

He said he always can find the
time to read.
"Kurt Vonnegut and George
Onvell
are
two of my favorite au-
thors,'' he said.
. Whittle, a junior journalism
major, Said his career aspirations
involve advocacy journalism.

opinion editor for a major news-

Patrick Whittle
tor-in-chief, said the newspaper
will be in good hands.
·
'!Patrick was a qualified can-
didate," she said. "He will do a
fine job next year."
·
Editor-in-chief is not the only
position being filled next year
ori
the Circle
staff.
·
The new opinion editor will be
Mike Bagnato, while Jeremy
Smith will take over as photo
editor. Nik Bonopartis will be
taking over for Whittle as A &

News, sports, managing and
features editors will continue in
the same capacity next year.

Carter and Jason Kidd," he said.
In regards to our rights, Jer-
emy Dorari suggests some
drugs will become legal to pur-
chase.
"We are going to see the le-
galization of marijuana," he said.
Fellow commuter Michael
Craig said he hopes he wiil be
able to travel to school faster,"
he said.
"The Speed limit is going to
be increased," he said.
Focusing on Marist, junior
Heather Suydam said she pre-
dicted problems for upcoming
classes.
"Graduating classes are going
to have the tough problem of
dealing with being the Class of
00, or the Class ofO 1,'' she said.
Suydam also said that students
are going to be thinking they
are
losers because of the
00.
Fellow junior Becky Valk does
rtot make a prediction at all. Ac-
cording to her, claims that the
world will end in eight months
are untrue.
"Nostradamus states that July
99
marks the end of the world,
so nothing is going to happen
in the year
WOO,"
she said.

Arrangements to get Rogers

It is anO:ther in a long list of
honors and awards that have
been bestQwed upon the70-year
old Rogers, who has hosted his
well-known television program
for the past
33
years.

In
1994 he received the Eleanor

has done makes him a perfect
speaker for Marist commence-
ment
"He leads a
life
of higher val-
ues," Massie said. "He best

The ideals Massie spok~ of
are excellence in education,

to th~ principli of

service and pursuit of higher
human values. According
to ·
Massie, Rogers reaches all three
of these.

According to the Wilderness
Society's ·web page, Senator
Gaylord Nelson first began
Earth Day back in 1970.
"The. objective
.
was to get a
nationwide demonstration of
concern for the environment,"
he said. "Earth Day achieved
what l had hoped for."
SEGA members agree that the
day went well, but do have ideas
on improving next year's cel-
ebration.
·
Kristin Harvey, freshman
.
SEGA member, said there were
-~
plenty of. things people could
take
part
in, but
~h~
hopes next
year will
.
draw a larger crowd.
"We could use more publicity
to draw in more people," she
said.
Swailsaid she also would like
to see more of a turnout.
·
"I thought it went well be-
cause it was a very nice day, but
I would have liked to see more
people there," she said.
Jendrzejczyk feels there needs
to be more tables addressing
issues of concern on campus.
"We need to
try
to find solu-
tions for.problems on campus,
such as recycling," he said.
According to Jendrzejczyk,
this year there was more sup-
port from local organizations,
but the event would have gone
over better if it were held on the
weekend
.
"We would have had a better
turnout if it was the whole day,
not just activity hour

Marist Singers applauded
Editor:
. My wife;Barbara and I would like to thank the Marist Singers for making our
40th anniversary trip to Rome such a pleasant success. Their perfonnance at the
Marist Brothers' Worldwide Youth Festival on Sat., j\priI;
17
was truly outstand-
ing and a source ofpride for all ofus from America. With the thousands that filled
the huge flaul VI Audience Hall to capacity with "Maristi" from all over the world,
and \Yhere North Americans were but a tiny fraction of the Marist family, you
could teUfrom the clamorous applause that they enjoyed the Marist <:ollege

Their perfonnance at the home of the Vatican Ambassador, Lindy. Boggs on the
Friday evening set the p_erfecttone for the celebration that brought us together in

Reader rebuts editorial
Editor:
Two of the PBS specialists analyzing the Columbine HS tragedy were honest
enough to opine that a "spiritual emptiness" is part of the cause.
("If
PBS
doesn't do
it,
who will?")
. ·
I did not appreciate Tara Quinn's remark about Graceland be1.ng "the place
where Jesus was born." Such humorous or malicious bashing of the Catholic
religion has become pervasive recently in the media; slowly frittering away the
moral fiber of society .
Rivulets become rivers that lead to Littleton oceans.

Graduatirig senior offers parting words
Editor:
Well my four years are up here at Marist College, and for two of those years I
was _an editor for
The Circle
so I figured this would be my last time to write an
editorial so here goes'. . ·

I could do the
typical
senior thing and say how happy I was for four years here, and so
on and so forth, but,I
will
spare you •.
Instead,
I will let some of you in on some things that
have kept me sane in my most stressing moments and made those gocx:l times a lot
better.
First, ~n crossing Route 9, there is a very simple and inexpensive way to cross
the street without _being hit by a car (and I am not talking about building a bridge
.for the students or eliminating the right turns on red law). All you guys and girls
haveto do is look left then look right.
If
you do that, you will see if there is a car
coming and that will let you know that it is not the right time to cross the street.
Next, get to know your teachers. The more you get to know them, the better

• One of the l~gest smprises
on the

album is the guests that
Mike brought into the studio
with him. Misery Loves Com-
pany is a song that Mike does
with Bruce Springsteen.

• Don't Pay has dark rockabilly
guitar work done by none other
than the ex-Stray Cat and MTV' s
·
kirig of swing Brian Setzer. The
guitar work is uncharacteristi-
cally. dark for Setzer and
fits
very
well with the attitude of Mike
Ness.
Just like Social Distortion
songs, Mike brings very deep
and personal lyrics. He sings
about everything from blown
-
chances at love ·(Rest
of
dur
Lives and If You Leave Before
Me") to his drug addiction, or
as he puts it, "dying twice a
·
day" (Dope Fiend Blues, Bal-
lad of a Lonely Man and the title
track)
.
He also puts forth some
of his best guitar work yet and
writes songs that will appeal
tq
even the hardest of Social Dis
-
tortion fans while keeping well
entrenched in his country and
rockabilly roots.
Now I was skeptical when I
bought the album. I thought the
description was exaggerated
.
But you know what the weird
thing is? I really do not care
that this is not a punk rock al-
bum.
The
songs are catchy and
no . matter how offended you
may be at Mike's betrayal to his
punk rock throne, you cannot
help but find yourself singing
these songs to yourself'all day
long. The music manages to
sound
.
like a country song while
having this odd resemblance to
something that should
be
heard
from the centerofa swirling and
violent pit. Mike captures the
essence of country, rockabilly
and punk and forges them into
a new direction. Mike Ness did
not change, he just visited new
territory for a little while. So go .
pick up 'Cheating at Solitaire'
and watch for him to come near
you this summer. For more info

'Much Ado about Nothing'
is
considered
one
of
Shakespeare's most witty and
romantic p1ays. The true Direc-
tor Victor Sma_ll said it's
Shakespeare's merriest look at
love.
Megan Williams, a stage
manager for the production, said
the audience should expect the
true essence of the Bard.
"It's a smart, intricate plot,
with a dynamic cast," she said.
Karen Gumaer, also a stage
manager, said that if the audi-
ence pays attention to' what is
going on, on stage, it's a very
funny show.
"The true comedy of
Shakespeare is evident to the
audience," she said.
The cast and crew of Much
Ado have been working to-
wards this performance for the
last three months. According
to producer, Bryan Delaney, the
cast has put their heart and souls
into the production.
The Marist College Council
on Theatre Arts recaps the
1998-
99
season, the following week-
end with its annual Banquet
Awards Ceremony. The cer-
emony starts at 7 p.m. in the
Nelly Goletti Theatre and is free
and open to the public.

MCCTA box office at x3 l 33.

From Konami,
,
th~ ~ompany
that made the hi(garne Metal
Gear Solid, comes a terrifyingly
bold new adventure game.
Silent Hill is a fresh horror
experience, which is welcomed
during the long wait for the next
Resident Evil game. There are
few horror adventure games on
the market and the Resident Evil
series is the top among them.
However, Silent Hill has added
·
some competition. While Resi-
dent Evil was a brain-eating
zombie bloodbath, which· was all
about blowing up whatever
moved into tiny pieces, Silent
Hill
has taken a new approach.
·
The purpose of Silent Hill is to
scare in every way imaginable.
The main character of the
game is a normal guy named
Harry Mason. In the opening
