undis-
dosed to the Marist coniinunity.
Many students and faculty were
left speechless and wondering
why.
.
Student Body President Ryan
.
Hunter said that he was dumb-
founded when he heard the
news.
"I was shocked and sur-
prised," Hunter said. ''.He was
our judic~al scholar."
Vassar College's Assistant
Dean of Faculty, Judith Hanna,
said the college hires
adjuncts
because the faculty members are
on leave. Their full-!im~

Others share Hunter's senti-
ment. Bruce Wagner, vice presi-
.
dent of Human Resources; said
that he also did not understand
why Amato resigned.
· "I don't know why he re-
. signed," Wagner said.
Some ofMarist's students and
faculty said that Amato's rea-
sons for resigning were prob-
ably confidential, and should
not be probed any further.
Audrey Markowitz, commuter
mentor, s~id Amato's reasons
should not be made public.
"It
is out of respect that we
keep his resignation reasons
confidential," Markowitz said.
Vice President and Dean of
Student Affairs Gerard Cox said
that twenty years hard work and
contributions should not be for-
gotten.
"Even though Amato's loss
will be suffered by the Marist
community, it does not undo the
conribution that one has made
through ~he years," he said.

Jeremy Koscieliecki, secretary

important in the field of chemis-

"A
mole is to a chemist like a
dozen is to a baker," he said .
Since the beginning of Mole
Day's observance in .1995, its
popularity has grown into a na-

Internet greeting cards and
websites.

The gallery had to move from

because of all the new construc-

Who can submit artwork?
·Many students and faculty sub-
mit their artwork for display in
the gallery. For the· most part,
students enrolled in
art
classes
are more likely to submit their
work for the student shows.
There are various types of
shows that allow art gazers to
enjoy pieces of work done by
i;tudents, faculty, and seniors.
Last month, art professor,
James Luciana's exhibit called
"An Ordinary Land" was
shown in the gallery. It was com-
posed ·of photographs taken in
England and France .. ·
. Dan McCormick, who is the
current photography professor
at Marist College, will be show-
ing his work in a display that
opens on Nov. 29. The recep-
tion will be held on Dec. 2, from
5
to
7
p.m. Later in the season,
the senior show provides an ar-
ray of artwork from seniors who
are studying art as their major.

Marist has long been
criticized
as being a homogeneous, pri-
marily white school. The Black
Student Union (BSU) would dis-
agree.
With over40 members, includ-
ing blacks, Hispanics, and
whites, the goal of BSU is to
promote cultural diversity, ac-
cording to club president Valerie
Page.
''We really want to promote
diversity on this campus," she
said, "So while the club is pri-
marily black students, it is open
to anyone."
In addition to promoting the
inclusion of all types of stu-
dents here at Marist, BSU
reaches out to involve the com-
munity. They recently co-spon-
sored a Halloween party with
the Tri-Sigma sorority for stu-
dents in the Liberty Partnership
Program. The Cabaret was filled
with local junior high and middle
school students bobbing for
apples and getting their faces
painted last Oct. 29 because of
the work .of these clubs and
Marist's Praxis progra:m.
'
· Page said that BSU makes a
constant effort to open up their
activities to other groups on
campus and to gain as much fac-
ulty support as possible.
"The faculty likes to know
what's going on, and without
their support, we would have
nothing," she said.
One of the main components
of their support is faculty advi-
sor Gregory Moses, assistant
professor of philosophy.
Moses said that BSU offers a
good
opportunity
for
multicultural students.
''They provide a valuable sup-
port. network for students of
color on campus," he said.
French Professor Claire Keith
is working
with
BSU in theirnext
project, the Nyabingi talent
show this Thursday, Nov.
I I
in
the theater, that will feature stu-
dent acts. BSU has invited the
International students from
Dutchess. County Community
College in a community-build-
ing effort. Keith said the goal is·
to expose the International stu-
dents to more than the
life at
Dutchess.
"We really want to invol"..e.
them in our community and let
them know that they are wel-
come here," she said.
Page also works as the cultural
affairs officer for the Student
Programming Council (SPC),
and said she uses this as a way
to get more multicultural events
on campus. These events in-
clude speakers, poetry read-
ings, and the Def Comedy Jam.
· "SPC holds a lot of events, and
we try really hard to get every-
one involved," she said, "But
the students will choose
whether or not to participate."
Page said she is pleased with
the effort of the members of this
year's club and their commit-
ment to its goals. She said she
is especially impressed with this
year's freshman class and their
work.
Upcoming events for BSU in-
clude their Kwanza dinner in
December, and a November trip
to Binghamton to participate in
a Caribbean Cultural festival
along with other area schools.

any better. Preaching is

SCORPIO:
Today
there may
be
'Much

as you are caught up in
a crowd scene or some
momentary fad. Avoid
impulse buying and
overspending. Be sure
not
·
to spend aJl your
money in one place. Be
careful when taking
risks, especially when it
isn't your idea in the
.
first place

Retain your
sense of perspective
by learning how things

Put yourself in some-
one else's shoes before

things.
-
SAGITfARIUS: Every-
thing goes your way,
almost as if divine in-
fluence was made to or-
der. You are able to do
exactly what you want,
with results that sur-
pass expectations. This
is a great day to present
your ideas to your boss
or persuade a partner
around to your way of
thinking. Explore the
possibilities of this
situation while
it
lasts.
Tonight, you are the
center of attention, so
go out on the town and
celebrate your popular-
ity.
CAPRICORN:
There
may be a pull within
you, causing you to be
a bit irritated. If you feel
yourself being pulled in
two different direc-
tions, take a minute to
explore the conflict.
Idealistic plans may not
seem realistically pos-
sible, but toned down,

find-
ing it difficult to have
your cake and eat it,
too,
the
time might be
right to look at your pri-
orities. Make sure you
consider the feelings of
loved ones when plan-
ning for the future.

AQUARIUS: Today
finds you in love with
~
the concept of multi-
plicity. Your mind is ev-
erywhere at once,
and
your body would fol-
low ifit weren't having
so much fun in its
present location. The
alternative to cloning
·
yourself
is
to use this
expansive mood for
firming up your social
schedule. Multitasking
wiU come easily to you,
so taking on new
projects won't be a
problem. Remember to
keep track of deadlines.
Tonight, organize a
party or an outing with
friends.
PISCES:
Think before
speaking! You may be
ready to let all your feel-
ings out into the open
and expand your vo-
cabulary doing it, but
others, especially an
authority figure, may
not
be
ready for you!
Be very aware of your
thoughts before they
come spilling out of
your mouth. Don't say
anything you will regret ·
later.
It
might be best to
spend
as much time as
possible alone in your
office. You may have
conflicts later in the
day over doing what's
right versus what's
easy

·
·
·
How sad to see the organization slip.
.
.
I am a firm believer that each succeeding generation of Circle staff should elevate
the paper to even higher standards. That was c~rtainly true of last year's staff, but
this year there have been no innovations, no attempts to introduce new ideas or
·
challenge the status
HUO.
It is merely a poor representation, a husk, modeled after a
strategy that worked for one editor-in~chief, and obviously not the current on~.
It is not too late for this
year's
staff to pull out of
the
doldrums'. The problem
is
that
there is no passion, no ambition, to the field or to the paper.
The
Circle
needs peifec
.
ton, not mediocrity.
.
.
_ _
_
.

_
Because of
its
large readership in print and now on the Wep, the papefrepresents
the quality of alt Marist students. The organization has
·
a great responsibility, and it
should not be compromised.

'A middle
cl~ citizen's an~t
byBENJAMJNBRENKERT
As a middle class citizen, I am
disgusted with the lack of op-
portunities that state and fed-
eral governments provide -for
college tuition. My grieflocal-
ized when a Marist College fi-
nancial ~id officer shrugged
their shoulders when asked -
"Why should my parents have
to sell off theirHfe earnings to
send me to college?" The simple
reply "your parents can afford
to send you to school, look it
says right here on my computer." -
Oh really! I guess that computer
factored in the fact that my
Moin, who happens to be 63,
still has to work to help me
through college. What is wrong
with this picture? Doesn't any-
one here at Marist feel that our
federal and state governments
should do more to pay for higher
education than by simply send-
ing us packets of loan options?
I have written to numerous
congressmen and senators, in-
cluding Carolyn McCarthy, and
recently wrote a letter to Gover-
nor Pataki. Both voiced their
concerns, which manifested
into 100 pages of loan-based
payment optioning (among
.
other .materials) .
.
Of course,

there were the

$1500~$2000 a

The

gation that will only traverse
preordained "air lanes'.', making
it nearly impossible to cause a
collision. The aerodynamics of
the vehicle have been designed
with inclement weather and
strong wind gusts
in
mind, and
the engineers have taken this
into account in making a virtu-
aliy unshakable machine.

Right now yoll're thinking,
"Yeah, that's

and bad news. The bad news is
that until the Skycai: goes into
mass production, they'H cost a
hefty
$1
million apiece for pro-
.
totypes. The good news is that
the Skycar has been designed
for mass production, and once
it enters the factories, Moller
predicts the cost could drop to
$60,000 to $80,000, depending
on how well sales go.
Before the end of the year,
Moller plans to send the first
Skycar into the air amid a media
frenzy, and the company pre-
dicts it will be less than two
years before the Skycar be-
comes as American as apple pie.

by Frank. She
.
becomes some-
what of an obsession to Frank
because he sees something in
her that he can not quite figure
·
out until the end of the film.
As I said the film takes place
over three nights and Frank is
paired with three very different
partners in the ambulance. The
.
first night he has Larry, played
by John Goodman. Larry tries
to keep Frank calm and col-
lected, and he tries to get
Frank's problems under control.
The seccmd night he is paired
with Marcus, played masterfully
by Ving Rhames. Marcus is a
Jesus freak who has been where
Frank has and tries to show him
that the light of God can help
him through his problems. The
·
third and final
_
night pairs him
·
with Walls, a psychotic para-
medic played by Tom Sizemore
who finally forces Frank to lose
control and face his demons.
This film has its bright spots,
especially in Nicholas Cage,
who is brilliant. Tom Sizemore
andVing Rhames provide some
of the more memorable moments
the film and both put in quality
performances of their own.
Marc Anthony also adds a great
perfonnance as Noel, a man who
almost seems to appear every-
where Frank goes throughout
these haunted days. He also
starts to drive Frank insane.
Martin Scorsese does a great
job capturing the realism of the
streets of
NYC:
He captures the
bad, the horrible, and the really
screwed up better than any~me.
He uses all
sorts
of camera tricks
and odd editing devices to help
carry across the character's
emotions and the way the days
and the nights seem to fly by
and blend into one. ,

A couple of weeks ago, I re-
viewed NBC's long-running hit
Law
&
Order.
_
In case anyone
missed it, the show is equal parts
cop show and courtroom drama.
While I didn't say so in my col-
umn, I thought that
Law
& Or-
der probably represented the
. best of both genres
.
There was
no better cop show, or court-
room drama, on television today
.
Well, I am pleased to say that
Law & Order has some compe-
tition for the title of"Best Court-
room Drama" in
The Practice.

Thanksgiving is supposed to be
about, realizing what is impor-

ful for it. Ignore the materials
that you don't have; enjoy what
you do, whether it be what
house you live in, what car you
drive, or more importantly, what
friends you are lucky enough
to have. Personally, I can't
stand Thanksgiving, I just can
not wait 'till Christmas so I can
get a whole lot of crap.

Heavy metal
Halloween fun
at the Chance
byCIIRISfOPHERYOUNG
Staff Writer
The place to be was the
Chance on Halloween Night.
While most people were out trick
or treating Sunday night, I was
at the Chance witnessing one
of the most bizarre shows I've
ever seen.
As I arrived at the door,
I
was
somewhat disappointed to see
that Malevolent Creation, a
death metal band from Florida
and the aggressive metalcore
band from the Bronx, Irate, had
cancelled. That meant that Dar-
ling Demoniac, Internal Bleed-
ing
and Broken Hope would be
the only acts.
Poughkeepsie locals Darling
Demoniac
kicked things off
with their unique brand of metal.
What impressed me most about.
this band was their stage per-
formance:· The band made good
use of fake blood and fake or-
gans. Two fans of the band got
up on stage and did a Lesbian
love dance that resulted in both
girls ending up topless.
After. Darling Demoniac
ended their set, Internal Bleed-
ing
took the stage. The main
reason I wanted to go to this
show was to see this Long Is-
land band. This was the first
time I was going to see them and
I was very anxious. After wit-
nessing their set, all I can say is
that Intemal Bleeding can rock,
Internal Bleeding
can roll. They
played an oldie but a goodie in
Inhuman Suffering
off the Vo-
racious Contempt
EP. Included
in their set were two new songs,
Rage
and Six Shots in Dallas
off their newest effort, Driven
to Conquer. Six Shots in Dal-
las
blended their trademark
sound of technical speedy grind
riffs with a combination of bru-
tal slam riffs.
The Chicago death squad
Broken Hope
was left to finish
the show. The Death Metal
scene appears to be warming up
in the Midwestern United States
with an upcoming number of
bands such as Broken Hope
churning out demos and CDs.
Guitarist Brian Griffin for ex-
ample,
was
sporting
a
longsleeve of a fellow Windy
City band, Fleslzgrind.
The main element that stuck
out in my mind was Joe Ptacek's
extremely low guttural voice
that
rocked the Chance ... This
factor was made evident when
the band played classics Pitbull
Grin
and Siamese Screams. De-
spite that many people didn't
go, the show was still a success.

"Hmmm ... do I feel like chicken tonight, like chicken tonight?"
Bringing Out
the
Dead:
Cage confronts
demons
... continued from page
11
This is a fitting film to be
Scorsese's last of the century
(dear God did I just do that stu-
pid last of the century thing?). It
deals with many issues of spiri-
tuality and of what we truly want
out of life, as well as what we
truly need. It also makes us ques-
tion the value of saving the lives
that just may not want to truly
be saved. Maybe Frank just
needs some rest, or maybe he
really does see and hear the dead.
Either way it doesn't r~ally mat-
ter. Scorsese makes it work.
I guess I just expected a little
more from this film. Between the
. brilliant cast and the brilliant di-
rector I expected to get a little
more out of it. The film runs for
about two hours, but at times
seems much longer. Even
though all those camera tricks
serve a great purpose, at times
they just get annoying and be-
come hard to follow. You also
find yourself wishing that Frank
would just get over it and do
his damn job. This is not an-
other "Goodfellas" or "Taxi
Driver." It is simply "Bringing
out the Dead." Perhaps ifl were
able to view it separate from all
of Scorsese's other works I
would have left a little happier.
It is a great movie, don't get me
wrong. But some part
of
me
wants more than great from
Martin Scorsese.

Women's soccer falls
after late season surge

After a late~season win streak
·
pushed theMruist women's soc-
cer team into the Metro Atlan-
tic
Athletic Conference
(MAAC) tournament, the Foxes
saw their season come to ah end
last Friday
.
Marist, who came into the tour-
. nament as the number three
seed,
feH
to second-:seeded
Loyola, l-0, in front of a crowd
of253 at Fairfield University.
It left the Foxes with a season
record of
s~
13-1.
Host and number one seed
·
Fairfield captured
.
the confer-
ence tournament, defeating
Loyola in the final game.
Senior captain Nicole Orneck
said, even though they lost,just
getting to lh:e MAAC tourna-
ment said a lot about the team.
"No one.expected us to get
even this far," Orneck said, "We
knew what we were
.
capable of,
despite the fact that our oppo-
nents and some of our fans
doubte<.fos. It tqok a while,.but
out team definitely meshed to-
.
gether over the last six games.''
Loy~la definitely dominated
the semifinal game Friday after-
noon. Despite Marist's strong
effort and
,
positive attitude,
· Loyola was able to play offen-
sively for the entire first
half,
keeping the ball near the Fox's
goal cage for most of the first 4 5
minutes.
Omeck said Marist simply
·
took a while to get going
.
"We definitely played rushed,"
she said. "We ended up sitting
back and waiting for them to
play the ball first. Our aggres-
sion
_
l
_
acked in the beginning."
.
With 19:21 ontheclockNaura
·
Groarke, with the aid of team-
mates Becky Bieneman and Nina
Tinari, knocked the ball past
Marist goalie Melanie Nai, who
tallied 134 season saves.
"11)ey were a tough team and
we're a young team," Nai said.
"With each new game we pro-
.
gressed, so next season will be
more
·
successful."
Loyola
_
also out-shot Marist
10-1. Sarah McTurk, Marist's
.
leading scorer with a season to-
tal of nine goals and 22 shots,
accounted for the Foxes' only
shot attempt for both halves.
Although the pace of the game
.
·
picked up considerably, Marist
was denied even one shot on
cage for the whole second half.
Orneck said the Foxes' found
their game, it just came too late.
