The recent increase in the
· student body population at
Marist has led to the expansion
of some class sizes.
With
a larger than expected
freshman class, the Registrar's
office found that they had to
add additional seats and in-
crease maximum capacities in
some classes this year. While
classes of every level were in-
creased, those that were in-
creased most were the core
classes comprised of mostly
freshman.
Assistant Registrar Cheryl
Dubois said that most of the in-
creases in class size occurred in
the core classes because those
are required courses.

come and go throughout the

The opening of the new library
is a cause for concern due to
the fact that commuters will
· probably stay on campus for
longer .. periods throughout the -
day causing parking overflows .
, • 1
'With
the.new library open-
ing,
I
think we're going to find
more commuter students stay-
ing on campus to use
it,
filling
those lots up," Leary said. "We
may have to rethink that for-
mula."
· "We added some extra seats
and increased some maximum
capacities. Classes such as
Ori-
gins of Modem Time and Col-
lege Writing were increased be-
cause they
are
a requirement for
everyone,'' Dubois said. "But
some writing classes might only
have 17 students in them while
others· have
30.
The size de-
pends on the class."
Even with the increased ca-
pacities, Marist still boasts a
smaller average class size than
rriostother colleges.
"The average class size is
stillonly
25,
but most of the core
classes do average about
29,''
· Dubois said.
Most Marist students are
unbothered by the increased
class sizes, saying that a few
extra seats would not make that
much of a difference.
"I think my classes would be
basically the same (if they had
not been increased). The
classes•. are· still pretty small,"
said freshman Matt Jones.
"My classes here have less
people in them then my high
school classes had," said fresh-
man Michael Nauiunas.
While most students do not
mind the increased capacities,
some are concerned about
classes becoming too big, in-
cludingjunior Kimberly Davis.
"A few extra seats aren't that
big of a deal," she said. "But if
they decide to increase class
sizes every semester, then it's
going to become a problem."

day"
The sky was of
a
lightblue colof decornted with a few fluffy white clouds that
day, last Wednesday in April. The leaves had just begun to sprout on the tall,
sturdy campus trees and the temperature would reach a perfect sixty-five degrees.
In
the
building on the north campus was a table of goodies such as cookies and
brownies for the annual bake sale. Outside the acres of green grass stood tables
with crayons, beads, glue sticks and more. Baby bunnies, some chicks and even a
sheep wandered around a circular fence. For the students involved it could mean
only one thing: One-to-:One day was about to take place.
As nine o'clock rolled around more and more students showed up on line, each
eagerly waiting a name tag and child. A half-hour later, as arrival time became closer,
the tension and excitement started to rise. "I wonder who will be my buddy for the
day," was running through everyone's head. Soon the children would be here, and
the fun would begin. The students could not wait for the day's activities to get
underway.

each child stepped off the van. Adult and child, both hesitant at first, breathed a
sigh of relief after greeting each other, · The tension definitely eased as each pair
. headed towards the green, freshly mowed pasture of fun and games.
For the rest of the day, Frisbees, footballs, balloons and bubbles soared through
the air. Adults an·d children scram.bled around like butterflies recently freed from
cocoons. As the clay progressed it pecame clearer to see that this was no l011ger a
chore like some thought i.t might be, _Bighearted volunteers can now say thefwere

During the night's best mo-

band's song,
Man On The

film with the same name. The
movie, which stars Jim Carrey
and

is directed by Milos

the extravagant late comedian,
Andy Kaufman. He then ex-
plained that
R.E.M. scored the
film that will be coming later this
year. After the speech, the mu-
sicians then played a number
from the picture that was called
Great Beyond. The piece was
immensely interesting and fea-
tured guitar playing that would
dive up and down from hard to
soft and also included drifting
keyboards that would con-
stantly circle around the guitars.
Sometimes in the show, the
instruments did not feel like they
were united. Frequently, it even
seemed that either the guitar or
Mill's keyboard dominated the
rest of the instruments, so co-
hesion would be lacking. It also
felt like the members of
R.E.M.
were hesitant about presenting
their older material. They may

_
so the trio departed from
their
80's
compositions and
gave the audience a full look at
all of their work including items
that have never been on the

Including these mi-
nor flaws, the show was
still
very good and incredibly satis-
fying. The music and the visu-
als were sharp and the band's

Things that
don't quite
suck
byCHRISKNUDTSEN
Staff Writer
In today's day and age, it is
nearly impossible to 'find qual-
ity entertainment. Every now
and then, something worth-
while comes along, occasionally
something original, normally
something rehashed. This ar-
ticle is meant to be
a
catalogue
of things that do not quite suck.
First off, professional wres-
tling. Arguably, wrestling has
suffered from a recent downfall
within the last few months, but
it
still remains one of the few
decent programs on television.
The WWF is makirig more
money than ever, boasting an
ever-growing fan base. Unfor-
tunately, this rise in popularity
is directly correlated with the
obnoxious trend- of wrestling
becoming
a
more apparent soap
opera.
•
Despite this, WWF still
holds some of the greatest mor-
tals to ever walk this earth such
as Mick Foley. Unsurpassed in
the cheesy land of television
testosterone is ECW ( which fre-
quently comes to Poughkeepsie
at
the Civic Center).

f
While we're on the topic of
machismo and testosterone,
there are only three words that
can sum up the greatest televi-
sion program of all time
.
The
Man Show. This is undoubt-
edly the single most
entertain-
ing show to ever appear on tele-
vision, save The Simpsons.
Where else can you watch an
elderly man chug beer within
seconds and sing disgusting
songs,
along
with the rest of the
show? However,
The
Simpsons
by far beat any other show ever
to come into television sets na-
tionwide.
As far as movies go, there are
few and far between that are
actually worth spending
$7 .50
on. The only movies that were
worth that ridiculous amount of
money this summer were
Ameri-

·
·
No sooner did the Marist band
strike its first note then a thun-
derous uproar of screams
erupted from the
·
starids, while
clanging cowbells arid sporadic
blasts of fog horn~ in unison
with stomping on the bleachers
signified the home team's en-
trance.
Racing at full speed from the
south end entrance, a wave of
black and red flooded the lush
green playing field, engulfing
the center emblem.
Marist got off to a great start
recovering a fumble on the first
play of the game, setting a domi-
nant tone early on .
That was just the spark the
Marist faithful needed to get
rowdy. With the school letters
painted on their chests, a group
of students provided the crowd
with a source of excitement as
they ran from one side of the
field to the other.
Unfortunately lackluster out-
ings by both teams could not
hold the crowd's attention for
the entire game as fans began
to file out with ten minutes left
and Marist comfortably ahead,
20-0.
Marist Head Coach Jim Parady
said the crowd created an excit-
ing atmosphere
.
"It
was a great setting,"
Parady
said. "The
players re-
ally fed off the energy
.
"
Senior Tom Henry said the
school should look into perma-
nent lighting.
"If they put lights in, it could
build mqre support for the pro-
gram," Henry
•
said.
Coach Parady said he would
like

games
under lights
.
"I would love the opportunity
to play two or three of the six
home games under lights,"
Parady said: "We wouldn't want
~o play November night games
but the early ones would be
·
good to play under them."
