l
the right to police
what we
can
and cannot see?
Smith argued the exposure to
sites is voluntary,
and parents
should take a
larger role if they
want to protect their children.
"You must
go
looking for
these
kinds of sites, they do not
come
and find you," he said.
"The
people should
decide
what
they are
going
to look
at, not
the govemmenL"
Stevenson
said
that the idea
of a national gateway simply
wouldn't work.
'"The means by which they are
attempting to regulate the net,
it's just not practical," he said.
"With euphemisms and
a
desire
to get what they
want,
there is a
way around the filters."
Ruane said people need to
be
responsible for their own ac-
tions.
"Rights
are
utilitarian, and with
them comes a responsibility," he
said. "Children
are
impression-
able, and because the web was
partly responsible for Colum-
bine, we need to find a way •to
step away from the bus before
it hits us. It's a preventative
measure."
Thompson said he was glad
to
have
the opportunity to host
such experienced debaters.
"I
was impressed by their wit,
their intelligence and their
adaptability,"
he said. "They
asked for a piece of paper five
minutes
before the debate and
that was all the
preparation they
took." ·
Maureen
Black, debate coach
at Spackenkill
High School
said
she
enjoyed the
debate.
"They were all very well
spo-
ken and had int_eresting view-
points," she said.
"I was im-
pressed all
around." On
the
topic of the debate, Black s·aid
that while Internet censorship
is necessary,
it would
be
too dif-
ficult to regulate at such a level.
"The sheer bulk of work that
would
be
needed to maintain
an
Internet checkpoint
for
each
page would be phenomenal,"
she said.
According to her, she is aware
of predators out there that
tar-
get children, including her own
son_. She said it is reprehensible
and
needs to be stopped.
Junior Danielle Blydenburgh
attended the debate as extra
credit
for a
class
and
in prepara-
tion for a presentation she was
making on the same topic. She
said she was somewhat swayed
by the arguments presented.
Circle photo/Mike Haigh
Chris Ruane questions Marist
student Brad Stevenson.
"Before,
I
was completely
against censorship of the
Internet, but now, not so much,"
she said.
"I
am now able to see
both sides, so it will be harder
for me to persuade (my class)
against
it."
The teams usually have about
15
minutes to prepare for their
topic,
and
they have no say in
· which position they are going
to
take.
The Marist de!,ate team usu-
ally competes in tournament
style deb~te, which is all about
wining and losing. Thompson
that this kind of audience de-
bate is really
good
preparation
for the team and he would like
to
see
more of it.
"I look
forward to holding an-
other event like this," he said.

Every day, 35,000 children die
all over the world due to hunger
and hunger related diseases.
That is approximately the num-
ber of deaths caused by a bomb
the size of tile one that dropped

on Hiroshima if the bomb were
to be dropped every four days.
November is Hunger Aware-
ness Month. The Marist com-
munity, in doing its part tCl eradi-
cate hunger, will be holding

Campus Ministry is
in
charge
of
spearheading the hunger
awareness campaign with
events such as the Walk/Run for
Hunger, the food driv~ and

Students

the
chance to walk around campus

Freshman Keara Troy said she
walking for hunger was a great
way for students to help out.
"I
wanted to walk because I
really wanted to help those less
:
fortun~t/ihan mys~lf," she
said. "1L'1ought that this walk
was a great way to do that."
Campus Mi~istry will also

which will

Student Jessica Algiere's
song to be performed
in

byJENWEINTZ
Staff Writer
For many the thought of sing-
ing on Broadway is a distant
and hopeful dream, but for jun-
ior Jessica Algiere it is a close
reality.

cation Day. This program allows
students to submit original po-
etry or songs to be performed
before the showing of
Rent.
Each school participating is al-
lowed to send a student whose
poetry or song was the best.
During this program there is
a
.
question/answer period and
then all the students perform
·
their piece that was selected.
Algiere submitted her original
song entitled "To be in your
arms", which she actually wrote
several years ago. She was later
notified that her entry had won
by Bob Lynch, who is in charge
of running this program.
Algiere's next step was to
make a demo tape of her song
andshipitofftoBroadway. Her
performance took place on Oct.
28, 1999.
"Singing is a part of
my life and I am
honored to represent

The show

was created by
the late Jonathan Larson. It has
received a Tony award for Best

1996 and a Pulitzer

Pottery is just a small part of Native Americ:an culture
by
MARY WITKOWSKI
Staff Writer
November is known for
Thanksgiving, but many people
don't know that it is also a
month dedicated to the heritage
of Native American Indians
.
Native American culture may
seem distant to us, but Ameri-
can Indians were the first to in-
habit the land that we are living
on. Their culture is rich in agri-
culture, pottery, ritualistic reli-
gion, song, and dance. The de-
velopment of cultivated plants
such as corn, peanuts, cotton,
beans, squashes, pumpkins,
and tobacco can be credited to
the Native Americans. They
also played a major role in influ-
encing seed selection, fertiliza-
tion, irrigation, basketry and
cloth weaving.
North American Native Ameri-
cans are divided into nine cul-
tures that correspond to geo-
graphic areas. Each geographic
culture is comprised of many
different tribes that share simi-
lar customs and traditions, but
also have different customs
unique to their tribe.
The nine cultures that are usu-
any recognized by anthropolo-
ing to cope with each other. It is
also about a group of friends
who become really close and
try
to build a family from their friend-
ship. It is based on the play, La
Boheme.
Algiere said that singing has
always been a major part of her
life. Here at Marist she is a Com-
munications major concentrat-
ing on public relations. She is
also involved with the Marist
Singers and Marist Chamber
Singers. During her freshmen
and sophomore year she was
also involved with MCCTA,
specifically children's theater.
Before coming here though,
Algiere was part of a Christian
Contemporary Band and sang
in her high school chorus. She's
also sung for several weddings
and has written a lot of poetry.
When asked how she feels
about singing and her
"part"
in
Rent
Algiere said, "Singing is a
part
of my
life
and I am honored
to represent Marist College in
this wonderful opportunity."

ans,
.
the Plateau Indians, the
·
MacKenzie Indians, and the
Artie Indians.
Each culture's physical envi-
ronment determined their diet.
The Eastern and Southern tribes
us~d com as their main food
whereas the Midwestern Indi-
.
ans mainly ate wild rice. The
Plains Indians hunted buffalo.
Acorns were the main support
of the Pacific Coast tribes and
Indians from the North were ex-
pert fishermen.
Slavery was common among
the tribes of the Pacific Coast
from Alaska to California. The
slaves were usually prisoners of
war.
Women in Native American
cultures had certain rights
within their tribe. In all house-
hold affairs women were "the
complete mistresses." They
were the owners of all property
except for weapons and horses
and they had the ultimate cus-
tody of their children.
Women also had a voice in the
tribes' councils. The women in
the Iroquois tribe had a lot of
power since all the important
questions had to be passed by
a council of( women. This

The Misfits
are a legendary
dark punk rock band that started
in 1977, died in the early eight-
ies, and were resurrected in 1995.

The Misfits went back on the
road again in 1995 with new

drummer, Dr. Chud. They played
their old favorite songs at this
time and Michale turned out to
be an excellent replacement for
Glenn Danzig. In 1997,

Cross Country petfo:hns

atM~.AC?s
by
CLAY NORRIS
Staff Writer
It
was a happy Old Hallows
Eve as the Marist College men's
cross country team ran to a third
pface finish in the Metro Atlan-
tic · Athletic
Conference
(MAAC) championship meet
last Sunday.
Although Iona walked away
with the title, head coach Pete
Colaizzo, in his ninth year at the
helm, said he was pleased with
the performance.
"I
expected us to finish third
and we finished third," Colaizzo
said.
In the 18-year history of the
MAAC championships, Iona
has won the event
14
times.
The Foxes' goal going into the
meet was to beat Rider because
the Broncs defeated Marist ear-
lier this fall.
Led by junior Greg Salamone,
who has been the team's_ top
runner in every race this year,
and his eighth-place time of
26.24.02, the Red Foxes nipped
Rider by a sco!e of 102-121.
Also running well were s~pho-
more Mike Nebr and freshman
Jamal Padgett.
On the women's side, Marist
tied for a first~place finish with
Manhattan. The Foxes had four
runners in the top 15, including
Liza Grudzinski.
The sophomore, who was
named MAAC Most Outstand~ ·
ing Runner for thewomen, won
for the sec_orid consecutive
year, covering the 3.15-mile
·
course in 18.47.51.
Teammate Heather Perrine fin-
ished secon'cL
The even· was held at Van
Cortland couise, located in the
Bronx. It is one of the oldest
five-milers in the country .. ' ·
"We knew what it -(Van.

After defeating Siena and
playing to a tie against · St.
Peter's, the Marist College_
men's soccer team finished
the
regular
season atl2-5-
l
head-
ing into
the Metro 'Atlantic
Athletic Conference (MAAC)
Championship Tournament in
Orlando.
The Red Foxes started last
week with a 5-2 record in the
MAAC, but looked to improve
on their third~place standing
heading into its last two_ con-
ference games of the season.
Last Wednesday. the Foxes
hosted conference
foe
Siena.
The Saints started the scoring
when Andrew Dunton scored
off a pass from Paul Ciovacco.
However, Marist evened the .
score when Brian Karcz netted
a goal off assists from Steve
Murk and Rich~rd Bradley.
Murk added the game winner
off a pass from Thomas .
Mullowney.

Chad McDonald niade

saves in the
2-1
victory.
Head coach Bobby Herodes
was pleasedwith the wiri.
'.'Siena is a very solid team,"
Herodes said. "We rebounded .
well from the two loses to Co-
lumbia and Colgate (the only
back-to-back loses of the sea-
son)."
Three days later Marist trav-
-e1ed to St Peter's to
take
on the
Peacocks. In a hard fought
battle, the teams played to a
1-
1
tie after two overtime periods.
Thomas Hunt netted the only
goal for
St.
Peter's off assists
from Chris Chmura and Javier
Gonzales. With only five min-
utes remaining, Patrick McCall
scored the equalizer for Marist
from Murk and
Josh Van.
Carlos DeBrito made nine
saves in the tie, which gave
Marist a 6-2-1 record in the
MAAC,

Bnan Karcz thinks the Foxes have agood chance to win.
Herodes said he is excited
about the tournament.
"Based on the season that we·
had, the expectations are self-
imposed,". he said.
"Being
where we
are
in the season,- the
expectations are high."
Despite having a first round
bye, the Foxes
will
have to win
three games in four day~, which
is extremely
difficult
for any team
according to Herodes. · He said
the tournament will come down
to discipline, depth in a team's
bench and luck.
Also, Karcz said focus will
be
key to the success of Marist in
the tournament, adding that ev-
eryone needs to bring their best
game for every game.
- ''We have a very good chance
t_o
win
this,"
Karcz
said. ''We've
seen every
team
and we feel that
we
can beat every team. We're
not used to being the favorite,
but we are one of the favorites
and we're ready to accept the
challenge."
The tournament gets under-
way for Marist today. The Red
Foxes will take on Canisius in
their first step on their quest
toward becoming the 1999
MAAC champions.

instead of trying to score a try,
kicks the ball between the
opponent's goal post in the

Maristwomen's
rugby
continues dominance
by
JEFFDAHNCKE
Sports Editor
The Marist women's rugby
team remained unbeaten this
weekend, as the Foxes captured
the New York Metropolitan
Championship at Vassar Col-
lege.
Marist is now a perfect
6-0
on .
the season, and ranked number
one· in the Metropolitan New
YorkUnion ..
The Foxes won a pair of games
last Saturday on their way to the
title.
Marist entered with the top
seed in the four team field.
First was a 22-0 victory over
Vassar, followed up by a 10-5
win over New Paltz. It was their
second victory over New Paltz
this season, as they beat them
19-5 earlier this year.
"New Paltz is our biggest
ri-
val," Becky Strunk said. "We
were kind of nervous but
we
came together as a team and
played our hearts out."
Leigh Murray scored in each
game. Amanda Parrillo scored
twice against Vassar, while Sa-
rah Giffune got into the scoring
act also. Katie Wenthen scored
in the New Paltz game.
Having won this weekend,
Marist advanced to the North-
east Championships, which will
be held at the University of
Massachusetts at Amherst in
two weeks. Seedings will be
based on each team's statistics.
"We're looking to go out and
have fun and play a fundamen-
tal game of rugby, and be happy
we made
it
this far," Strunk said.
