To ease the fears of transfer

.
which

~dmissions, works very hard at

Kaylor, ".ice president of admis-
sions,
·
saicl admissions works
hard to recruit transfer students
and make them feel at home.
.. Kent Reinhart [ coordinator of
·
·
·
spring enro1lment] coordinates
a campus wide effort. Everyone
did a superb job to enroll 110
·
transfers in the spring," he said.
The 110 transfer students this
spring semester more than
doubled the number from last
year
.
It
is also the most trans-
fers ever enrolled in one semes-
ter here at Marist.
Kaylor gave a few reasons as
to why the number was so high.
"More students opted
·
to
study abroad, which frees up
some housing and more resi-
dential space," he said. "Also,
since we came in right on the
exact number of freshman for the
fall we did not over enroll the
class, which means we didn't
have the mammoth number of
build-up rooms."

ages applications from transfer
students

ter."
. Jessica Sullivan
transfer student from
Endicott College
from two and four-year colleges
throughout the country, Just
like they do with freshmen, each
applicant's
·
grades, leadership
skills and personal qualities are
taken into consideration.
According to Patty Houmiel,
from the housing and residen-
tial life department, transfers are
also given a survey similar to
the one freshmen are given.
This provides helpful informa-
tion for housing when they are
deciding with whom to place the
student with.
Students such as Emily
·
Schwab, a freshman transfer
from the University of Connecti-
cut, were interested in Marist
because of its reputation in aca-
demics.
"I heard it guarantees good
jobs after college and that it has
a really good communications
program," she said.
·
J.R. Cappe11o, a freshman
transfer from Bryant College,
said he agreed with Schwab on
whyhe
chose Marist.
"I
chose Marist because it's
known for communications
which is going to be iny major,"
he said
.
But it was not just the work of
admissions that persuaded
some students to consider
Marist.
Jessica Sullivan,
a
transfer stu-
dent from Endicott College, said
she heard good things about
Marist through word of mouth
. of those that have had experi-
ences here .
·
"My brother goes here and he
has never had anything bad to
say about it. And I meet new
people everyday, so it gets bet-
ter and better;'' she said.
Black Delanney, also a trans-
fer from Endicott College, said
he also heard positive com-
ments from students here.
·
"I chose Marist College be-
cause it is about 25 minutes
away from my house and
my
best friend goes here," he said.
Most students, such as the
aforementioned students, are
transfers from two-year or four-
year institutions.
Kaylor said the reason for this
was
.
"that
·
most transfer stu-
dents came from schools that
didn't have their major or were
just unhappy."
Some students are just glad to
be away from home. For Carol
Pernice, a transfer from Nassau
Community College, that was
just the case.
"l
absolutely love it here.
l
like to be able to do things with-
out my parents constantly find-
ing out. It's great," she said.

it
would take two hours
to explain because of the com-

.
Murray could not be reached.
It was qo secret that Cielebak
played liasketball while living in
Poland. He was a member of the
Polish national team from 1995-
97, and also played in the club
system as a kid
.
But despite that, Morrison
said that the athletic department
had no reason to question his
eligibility. Cielebak arrived at
Marist last year, but was classi-
fied as a sophomore b~catise he
lost a year of eligibility after
studying for two years at the
Academy of Physical Education
in Poland.
·
''When we went through the
certification process, nothing
was brought to our
-
attention
that this would be a problem,"
Morrison said. 'We had no rea-
son to question his amateur sta-
tus."
Not surprisingly, the absence
of Cielebak has hurt the Red
Foxes. 'The 6-foot-9 forward is
·
the team's fourth leading scorer
and second leading rebounder
.
Head coach Dave Magarity
said it has effe~ted everyone on
the team not just physically, but
mentally as well.
"I just feel like we are operat-
ing with one hand behind our
back," he said. "You don't
know if he's coming back or if
he's not coming back."
Cielebak was initially reported
to be very upset about the alle-
gations, but now is handling
it
fine. He said he could not com-
ment on anything about the in-
vestigation until it concludes.
In terms of possible penalties,
.
the reinstatement committee can
either restore his eligibility with
no sanctions, restore his eligi-
bility with sanctions
_
or not re-
store his eligibility at all.
In a worse case scenario, as
the Poughkeepsie Journal re-
ported, Marist could be stripped
of all 11 wins
in
which Cielebak
was a part of. However, it does
not seem likely that such a se-
vere measure will be taken in this
case.
• Loyola University head coach
Dino Gaudio said he thinks
Cielebak will be back on the
court before the season ends.

PISCES:
Your work
may seem over-

Actually, you're
learning lots of

you'll be able to use
later, and it also
looks like something
you're learning is
going to lead to a lot
more income. It's
tough in the begin-
ning, but the more
practice you do, the
better you'll get at it,
and the more money
will be coming in.

and that looks like
what you're doing·
now.

THE
:
CIR.CLE
:
With a 9-8 record overall,
things appeared to be headed
somewhat in the right direction
with the new semester on its
way .
.
.
Brandon Maxam
and Scott
Rey are
·
both defensemeri from
Clinton High, expected to step·
in right away.
Marist's
Ray
Kenahan (18)·awaits a face-off in the Red Foxes' offensive zone.
·
However, back to back losses
to Rutgers and Central Con-
necticut put Marist at 3-3 in the
SuperEast Conference and in
need of a win in the worst way
imaginable..
·
Assistant coach
Kent
Rinehart said that the Red Foxes
have been lacking the intensity
that a tern needs if they are go-
ing to be successful for an en-
tire season.
"We
have played all season
without the intensity that you
.
need to win," he said. "We have
.
been playing just well enough
to lose."
Add onto that the fact thatone
of their most explosive players
.
is out for ttie rest of the year
.
and Marist has
to
find answers
from
'
someone else.
.
"Brian
(Warzecha) is out be-
cause of academic reasons,"
Rinehart said
.
"We need our
.
other older players to
.
step up
for us."
Step up they did as Marist got
that win in thefonn of
a
7-4 vic-
tory against Rider University
lastSunday.
·
·
Leading the way for the Red
Foxes was Braegan Plambe~k,
who scored
a
hat trick (10
;
l 1,
12) and also Drew Bowden
-
who
scored two
as
well (3, 4)'.
.
With the score tied at 1-1,
Marist went on to grab a
4c
1 lead.
Then in the third period wl:ten

left,
.
Marist iced the game with two
huge goals
.
Peter Intervallo made enough
saves to notch the win, with one
of the
goals
he allowed coming
on a penalty shot.
..
Marist
is
now 4-3
.in
the
SuperEast and 10-8 overall.
They need to play
·
well down
the
stretch
to qualify for the Na-
.
tional tournament, Rinehart
said.
"We are ranked third right now
with only three games left be

fore the teams are selected," he
said.
_
"It
all depends on which·
one of our teams shows up. The
one who blasted Maryland 8-0
and Penn State 8.:3, or the team
who lost twice to Rutgers."
·
Something else interesting to
note is the recent suspension
of Wagner College by the Ameri-
can
¢ollegiate Hockey Associa-
tion (ACHA).
The ACHA has not only sus-
pended them for the rest of this
year. but for the 1999-2000 sea-
son as well for what they call
They will also help to replace
Dan Sullivan,' a
.
senior
defenseman who will graduate
this year.
·
The third player is Pat·
Annunziata who comes to
Marist from Iona, but is expected
to work
with
the team to get back
into gear after not playing last
semester.
Some shocking statistics are
plaguing the Red Foxes. The
.
biggest is their
1-6
record
away
from Poughkeepsie.

Marist played tough defen-
sively, not overcommiting as
they had in the past, allowing
them to better defend perimeter
shots.·
Marist went on a run five min-
utes into the second half,
topped off by a Vallery free
throw.
Vallery, nonei_dstent in the first
half, (2
PTS,
2·REB), stepped up
big for the Red Foxes scoring·
down low and forcing Carey into
foul trouble. ·
·
Vallery said her first half per-
formance was a result of foul
trouble .
"I
got two quick fouls and I
had to sit," Vallery said.
"I

Carey's foul trouble during
crucial moments allowed the
Red Foxes to retain the lead
throughout inost of the half
while Carey sat.
Marist Head Coach Kristin
Lamb adjusted the lineup going
with Vallery, Stephens and Torie
. Anderson to dominate the paint.
Vallery responded by rattling
off
IO

ing the final eight minutes of the
game. Vallery was able to get

Marist has been unable to
