Heavy rains sp-ark
Playing the part on center sfage

Maintenance is repairing an
underground pipe that broke last
week in the Lowell Thomas Com-
munications Center and caused
some water damage in the base-
ment; said Marc Adin, assistant ex-
ecutive vice president.
The pipe may have been broken
for some time, but heavy rains .

on the east side of the building
which drains water from the roof,
said Sullivan.
Water drains from the roof via
pipes that run undergrQund to the
Hudson River. Adin said someone
was most likely working on the
roof and some debris
·
fell into the
conduit, causing the blockage.
There was no damage to the
building; water was mopped up
Wednesday from the hard surface
in the entrance to the center. And
fiber optic cameras have been put
underground by the builders to bet-
ter detect the problem, according
to Adin.
.
The pipe leads to the front foun-
dation of the building, and Adin
said he is unsure what caused it to
break.
The rain did cause flooding in
.
the main entrance to the Charles
Dyson Center last Tuesday night,
according to Mark Sullivan, ex-
ecutive vice president.
''.We are glad to see it happen

Saturday.

News Editor
ls Marist College one of the best
colleges in America according to a
U.S. News and World Report
survey?
No.
Marist did appear as one of
1,374 four-year colleges included in
the U.S. News and World Report's
1991 edition of "America's Best
Colleges," but was not ranked
as
one of the best.
Harry Wood, dir~tor of admis-
sions, said the U.S. News and
World Report guide was not very
credible among educators, but the
public might perceive it as popular.
The U.S. News survey of
academic reputations was sent to
4,131 college presidents, deans and
admissions directors. The survey
was designed "not to measure
academic quality as such, but
academic reputations."
He
said
Marist was not included
as one of U
.
S. News' "best"
-
because of their criteria.
Marist was ranked as "very com-
petitive" in last year's edition of
Barron's Guide to four-year Col-
leges and
_
will
be again this year,
Wood said.
Wood said Barron's Guide was
more credible among educators
because it describes colleges and
universities depending on the the
percentage of those who apply and
those accepted.
In the U.S. News
survey
of col-
leges, the schools were ranked ac-
cording to a system
"that
combin-
ed statistical
_
data gathered from
the colleges themselves with the
results of the exclusive U.S. News
survey of academic reputations."
The data gathered from the col-
leges themselves included the selec-
tivity of the student body; the
degree to which it financially sup-
ports a high-quality, full-time
faculty; its overali financial
resources, and the level of student
satisfaction based on the school's
ability to graduate the freshman
admitted.
Marist appeared in the "Facts
and Figures" section of the book
which included "test scores, accep-
tance rates,
student-faculty
ratios
and other key statistics to let
students compare colleges in the
U.S. News survey."
The schools were divided into
two main groups
-
national
universities and national Liberal-
Arts colleges.
The schools were also divided in
-
to four regions: North South,
Midwest and West.
The top five national Liberal-
Arts colleges in the North were:
Simon's Rock of Bard College
(Mass.), Westminster College
(Pa.), St. Anselm College (N.H.),
St. Mary's College of Maryland
and Rosemont College (Pa.).
Memorial service commemorates employee

A memorial service and tree
dedication was held last W ednes-
day for Vernon Jones, a Marist
housekeeper who died September
25, one week after his 34th
birthday.
Jones, who worked on the first
three floors of Champagnat Hall,
died of viral pneumonia. He is sur-
vived by his mother, a brother, a
sister and a daughter.
"Vernon was a hero in his own
right," said Connie McCaffrey,
director of housekeeping. "He
always had a smile on his face and
a kind word for everyone."
A tree dedicated to Jones was
planted at the south entrance of the
Charles Dyson Center. The
laminated tag which hangs from
the tree reads: "This tree is
dedicated in loving memory to Ver-
-
.
non Jones. He embodied a spirit
that was appreciated by all those
whose live.~
he
touched."
(CSL) proclaimed October
24, 1990
Vernon Jones Day.
"During his three years of ser-
vice, Vernon Jones was not only an
excellent worker, but also an ideal
friend of the
students,"
said CSL
leaders in a letter to Mccaffrey.
Vernon
.
was a
hero in his own

McCaffrey said Jones was a
quiet man who fought his own bat
-
tles and won.
"In planting Vernon's tree here
on Marist grounds where Vernon
spent so many of his days, it will
stand as a constant living remem-
brance of the gentle man Vernon
wac;, the courage he lived his life
with and keep Vernon's spirit alive

Liberian crisis has Marist connections
Civil War closes high school,
violence worries native student
by
KEVIN ST. ONGE
Staff Writer
·
While the current Gulf
Crisis
commands
most medla
attention, the bloody
civil
war in Liberia has quietly
spilled onto the Marist College campus.
Marist Brother Paul Ambrose
and
student Joseph
Camara, a junior, are both familiar with the West
African nation, now in a state of chaos following the
violent overthrow
of
IO-year President Samuel Doe.
Last
December, Charles Taylor. a former official
in the Doe government, led a small band of followers
across the Ivory Coast border into the Liberian coun-
ty of Nimba, where he began the insurgency that
culminated with the assassination of President
Doe
Sept. 10.
Camara, a Liberian national, has been studying in
this
country
since
1986
but his future remains unclear.
His mother Mamai Camara was a cultural attache at
the Liberian embassy in Switzerland, but returned to
Monrovia (Liberian capitol) last February during the
insurrection.
·
She hasn't been heard from since.
"Only two things are on my mind: They (members
of the Camara family) might be alive or dead," said
Camara, a
2T-year old political science major. "She
would have contacted me if she had gotten out of the
country."
·
Brother Paul Ambrose was out of the country
before the uprising
began
Chris~
eve.
1989. He
was
here in Poughkeepsie, after seyving th~ee
Y ~
as
financial officer to the regional b1Shop. His duties kept
him in contact with Marist High School
in
Pleebo, a
community in southern Liberia.
·
Like most institutions, the high school has
been
clos-
ed
untii the power struggle is resolved. The Manst
Brothers had opened the school in
I
986
as
part of a
renewed missionary effort.
·
·
Brother Ambrose returned from Liberia
early
in
1989
suffering
from his
fourth
case of
malaria. Now
retired, he lives on campus and maintains contact with
Marlst Foreign Missions while working with the Of-
fice of College Advancement.
"Before the insurrection, five Brothers were runn-
ing the school of about 750 students," said Bro.
Am~
brose. "When the soldiers came into Pleebo, the
school had to be closed and three of the Brothers left,
but two are still there helping children and families
devastated by the war.
Estimates range from
5,000
to 10,000 deaths directly
related to the insurgency in the country of
2
million.
While the Marist Brothers continue their work in
Pleebo, the political in-fighting rages in the streets of
Momovia.
·
Three factions claim control of the government.
Taylor, 42, commands a force of about 10,000
soldiers who hold the Liberian countryside.
Prince Yormie Johnson, one of the original band
that swept into Liberia with Taylor last year, left the
Taylor camp with nearly
400
supporters
and
began his
own quest for power and occupies most of Monrovia.
Although
Doe
was
killed,
1,000 supporters still
oc-
cupy the executive mansion in the city.
The Coalition for Relief, Resettlement and
Reconstruction of Liberia, reports food shipments
have been few and far between since July with refugee
camps
growing by the thousands.
A five-nation. 6,000-man West African peacekeep-
ing force has
been
loosely allied with Johnson's group.
The Economic Community Monitoring Group
(ECOMOG) enter
.
Liberia in August with the intent
to moderate some kind of cease
-
fire and impose a pro-
visional government.
It
hasn't
worked.
The
U.S.
invested over
SSOO
million in Liberia dur-
ing the
Doe
regime but future relations
remain
unclear.
Liberia had served as a technological nerve center
for U.S. military navigational and communication
systems
as
well as home to the African transmitters
of Voice of America.

'Vietnam' .class travels to war memorial
by
CHRIS SHEA
Staff Writer
A group of students travelled
back into a disheartening and tur-
bulent time in American history
two weeks ago.
Richard Platt and Vincent
Toscano's special topics com-
munications class visited the Viet-
nam
Wall
Memorial
in
Washington, D.C. on Oct. 20.
And for most students -
even
those who had seen it before - the
viewing was a grave and sobering
experience.
"I
had never seen it before "
. said Kelley Gaskell, a junior rro'm
Somers, Conn.
"It
was the highlight of the trip.
I couldn't believe how much more
emotionally overwhelming it was
:han I e!(pected," she said.
The trip· was arranged by
Richard Platt and Vincent Toscano
for "America and the Movies: The
Vietnam War," a special top1cs
course in communications.
Although the viewing of the
Memorial was the main intention
of the trip,. Platt said there were
many opportunities for students to
do other things.
"Visiting the Wall was the
primary purpose, and students
were required to do that. But they
also had a lot of free time to spend
in Washington and many took ad-
vantage to see the monuments, the
Smithsonian Museum," he said .
"And some even went to Arlington
National Cemetery."
Most -of the students' reactions
were positive, even in light of the
long bu~ ride and the
6:15
a.m.
departure time.

Board of trustees to
vote on five-year plan
by
IL.SE MARTIN
Editor
The board of trustees is schedul-
ed to vote-Saturday on the ad-
minsiration's five-year strategic
plan, a 60-page report charting the
· development of the college through
1995.
The report outlines observations
and recommendations for the first
five years of the decade in six areas:
enrollment, retention, academics,
student
life,
information
technology and resource planning.
Final approval of the year-old
report, "Anticipating the .1990s: A
Strategic Plan for Marist College,"
will be the focus of the board's
monthly meeting, according to
President Dennis J. Murray.
"Strategic planning is really the
vision of the institution, and (the
report) examines the long-range
directions of Marist College,"
Murray said.
Commissioned in June
1988
by
Murray, the Strategic Planning
Task Force, including administra-
tion, faculty and students, set out
to examine the strengths and
weaknesses of the school, and
charted its next five years.
One of the major themes o~ the
plan
K
qualfiative ·growth over
quantitative growth. While enroll-
ment rose
133'ie
from
1978
to
1988,
the report says, the strategy means
concentrating on improving the
quality of those six
areas
rather
than the quantity.
Concerning enrollment, the plan
recommends to level off the
number undergraduate stUdents
at
between
3,100 and 3,150 ~Y
1994-95, while increasing the
numb~r of full-time and part-time
graduate students to more than
100
and
500.
The academic recommendations
target improvements in the
Core/Liberal Studies program;
business, including new concentra-
tions in human resource manage-
ment, industrial psychology and in-
ternational business; computer
science, with expansion in graphics,
information systems and artificial
intelligence; and communications,
And it also identifies
"clear
academic foci" in the liberal arts
and sciences programs: en-
vironmental sciences, with an em-
phasis on river studies, ecology and
environmental
management;
education, including certification
programs at the undergraduate and
graduate levels; and public policy.
One key part of the plan to im-
prove the quality of student life is
· the new dorm, expected to house
about
425
students by 1993.
"In order for Marist to
significantly improve in quality,
academic stature and reputation,
the college must continue to build
its 'infrastructure' to prepare for
the next century," the report says.
· "Prime targets over the next fi•,e-
year period include a residence hall
and an expanded or new library."
In addition, the plan encourages
a diversity among the student
population, with increases in
minority recruitments and students

And yet most of. the student's
reflections and thoughts came back
to the wall.
Liz Murphy, a junior from Du-
mont, N.J., said fully understan-

"In many ways it's similar to the
movies we see in class. You can get
an idea of what it's like by looking
at pictures or at a film, but you
don't really know what it feels like
until you've been there," she said.
Murphy, at the request of Pro-
fessor Doug Cole· and Platt,
brought along a video camera in
order to capture the experience on
film to show the rest of the class.
"Some of the scenes were pretty
touching," she said.
"There was an elderly couple
looking for their son's name on the
wall. They were very composed un-
til they got a rubbing of his name.
Then the mother kind of broke
down. Some of the people standing
around watching broke down
too," she said.
The trip was open to students
outside of the· class and to other
faculty as well. A total of
27
students went; 14 _were from the
class. But only one other faculty
member joined the trip.

"Some students were hesitant
because of the early departure time
(6: 15
a.m.) and the long bus ride.
That, coupled with it being the
weekend of mid-terms, gave some
students second thoughts," said
Platt.
Platt said he is unsure if the trip,
which cost the students only $15
because Marist paid $1,800 for the
bus, will be put on again because
it is up to a curriculum committee
to decide if the class will be offered
again.
Platt said the timing of the trip
and a ,12-hour round-trip bus ride,
were two reasons why not everyone
in the class attended.
Debate team wins first two;
this year's group very strong·
by
JULIE MARTIN
Staff Writer
The debate team was successful
in its first two debates of the year
' -
putting them at a first place
ranking in the northeast region -
and coach Jim Springston said this
year's team is the strongest ever.
Two novice teams debated at
Columbia University between Oct.
19 and 21, with junior Dean
~astrangelo placing third out of 40
debaters, and senior Ed Fludd plac-
ing fifth. Both teams fared ex-
tremely well, Springston said,
especially the team of Ed Fludd
and· Frank Irizarry.
"They were
5-1
and advanced to
the finals where they beat
Syracuse," he said.
Springston sent three varsity
teams and three novice teams to
Suffolk in Boston from Oct.
26-28.
Two of the novice teams advanced
beyond the elimination rounds.
Fludd and Irizarry reached the
finals but were beaten by the
Syracuse team, which they had
defeated at Columbia.
"I guess it was their tum to beat ·
us," said Springston.
The top varsity team for Marist
was senior Anthony Capozzolo,
captain, and Tom Kavan. They
were
defeated in
the
semi-finals
but
finished
second out of six teams.
Springston said he was extreme-
ly pleased with the performance of
the Greg Maxim and Mary Ellen
Rozecki team, two sophomores
who usually debate with the junior
varsity team.
"They lost in the quarterfinals,
but they were the only sophomores
to make the elimination rounds,"
he said. "They are a really good
team."
Speaker awards in the novice
division were given to Frank Iriz-
zary, who placed first, Dean
Mastrangelo who placed fourth
and James Hocking who came in
sixth.
Capozzolo was second in the
varsity division while Tom Kavan
placed tenth.
Marist does not have a national
ranking as of yet but is ranked first
in the northeast. Springston said he
is very optimistic about the rest of
the season.
"This is the best varsity we've
had in the five years we've had a
team," he said. "Every coach I
have talked to expects us to do ex-
tremeiy well in the novice and var-
sity championships and especially
in the junior varsity champion-
. ships."
"Everything indicates that we
can," he continued. "We are do-
ing
very well right now."
Capozzolo, the team's top
debator who was recently recogniz-
ed as one of the top four debators
in the country by the Cross Ex-
amination Debate Organization,
agreed.
"I
think we really have a· good
shot at maintaining a national
ranking," he said. "Columbia and
Suffolk were both excellent
debates."
Mary Ellen Rozecki, captain of
thej.v. team, said she has good ex-
pectations of the j.v. national
championship as well.
"I think all the experience we
have had on varsity will definitely
help," she said. "It'll be tough but
I think we'll do well."
Springston attributed a good
amount of the team's success to
Capozzolo.
''.He's bright and dedicated and
is the most team-orientated captain
I have ever worked with in my 20
years of coaching," he said. "I'm
not the only one who thinks this.
It's the opinion of the other
coaches and the.other students on
l
the team." - ·
·
The novice and j.v. champion-
ships ~ill be held this March. The
varsity championship is set for
April.
"We have the biggest debate
team in the country with 40 people
so
we have lots of depth in
every
division," said Springston. "We
have a
good
shot."

Prof conveys knowledge of
street' to class
by
LISA DAWSON
Staff Writer
Even for toughened
·
police
veterans, like former detective
John Doherty, there are some
things you can't forget.
Like the night nearly two years
ago he pulled back the sheet on a
hospital gurney and stared down at
the crushed skull of a baby.
"It looked like a Cabbage Patch
kid, but it wasn't smiling," said
Doherty, assistant professor of
criminal justice.
Doherty said what made the
homicide so senseless was that it
was committed by the boyfriend of
the infant's mother, who threw the
infant against the wall and on the
floor because its crying annoyed
him while he watched television.
Doherty,
a
1969
Marist
graduate, said the homicide and
other incidents gave him an educa-
tion he could not have learned
from a book, and the kind he tries
to stress in his classroom.
"As a teach~r I am able to bring
students the understanding that a
cop is a human being," said the
43-year-old retiree. "I'm telling
people the way it is."
During his years at Archbishop
Molloy, a Marist Brother's high
·
school
in Manhatten, he said he
considered entering the seminary
but decided to serve the communi-
ty through other capacities.
He said he acquired the desire in
part through the Marist tradition of
education.
While at Marist, Doherty's ex-
periences included running the
,
school post office, being elected
senior class president and barten-
ding, before graduating with a
bachelor's in history.
After
graduating, Doherty said
he was killing time waiting to enter
the New York City Police
Academy.
''As a teacher I am
able to bring students
the understanding
that
a
cop is
a
human
being."
The intimidating, broad-chested
Doherty, the kind of man
lightweight criminals would have
second thoughts about grappling
with, is the image of the old-time
New York City cop.
Doherty's decision to become a
Poughkeepsie policem.in came
when a friend called and suggested
he give it a try.
"It's a decision I've never regret-
ted," he said.
He said police work is a tradition
in his family because many of his
relatives were New York City police
officers.
As head of the detectives bureau
for seven years. and captain of
detectives for three years, Doherty
has experienced some of the best
and the worst of Poughkeepsie as
well as seen some changes.
"Twenty years ago ... there was
a mutual respect (between criminals
and the police)," Doherty said.
·
"Now, there is no respect for
human life. Criminals would
shoot
their mothers just as easily as they
would shoot a police officer."
"People have got to understand
that the police cannot do it alone,
just as the oolic~ !lave got to
understand that the community
cannot do
it
alone," Doherty
said.
"When oolice and the community
don't get along, the community
suffers."
Doherty, a Poughkeepsie resi-
dent, is raising a family and has a
concern for the community. But as
a
former police officer he
said
he
also knows what it feels like to be
on the other side of the law.
Doherty said part of the problem
could be that most cops do not live
where they partol.
"I believe that police should live
in the city," he said.
"It
gives the
residents an opportunity to sec
police in a better ligh!."
"What I'm proudest of is
ever
since
graduation I've met people
who arc unhappy with their jobs.
For twenty years I've been happy
and no,,· I'm doubly blessed with

Spilled milk, headaches and
ABCs are bringing hard-earned
experience to some students.
Working with certified
teachers in various school
districts, Marist students are
earning their way towards a
degree in psychology/special·
education with the experience of
student teaching at local
schools.
Justin Meise, a senior io the
secondary education program,
said his growth through the pro7
gram is
ironic.
"I did not want to go to col-
lege because I was not taught
properly in high school. Now I
want to be a teacher," he said.
"I bring a lot of energy into the
class to motivate the students,"
he said.
·
The program -
in existe~ce
since
1946 -
has shown a quick
rise in student's interests in
teaching over the last few years.
The numbers have risen in the
past five years due to the in-
crease in teacher education pro-
grams nationwide, accorµing to
Dr. Janet Stivers, assistant pro-
fessor of special education.
There are
126
students involv-
ed in this semester's program,
earning credits for a double ~a-
jor in psychology and special
education. Approximately ten
students are also receiving an
education degree accompanied
by another major field of study.
Stivers said she tries to place
students according to their type
of classroom preferences and
their personalities.
"I try and place unsure stu-
dent teachers with a gentle

Stivers.

Purging the syst~m
Mainframe computer users, take note.
.
The primary purpose of computer use at Marist is academic,
not social.
"Chat," the program that allows students to send messages
back and forth on the mainframe, is overused.
Students are increasingly using terminals to chat with each
other while in the same room, and it is annoying.
At the computer center in Donnelly Hall recently, as many
as 10 to· 12 students have been using chat -
some for extended
periods of time. They are dead weight in the computer center,
and often become loud with giggles and laughing.
Why is it necessary for students in the same room to hide
behind a computer terminal when they talk to other students?
This is not junior high school.
.
The program should be used minimally, and, with the advan-
tage of having computers
in
at least four campus buildings,
should be used to communicate with students at other
·
locations
on campus -
.
and not between students who are sitting next to
each other.
Personal computer users~ take note.
With the constant use -
and abuse -
of computers in. the
labs at both Lowell Thomas 126 ·and Donnelly 250, students need
to take care in using the terminals.
Students are
part
of the problem, since a number of the broken
or out-of-order terminals and printers are a result of student
abuse, i.e. jamming printers with pens and occasionally spilling
beverages (which are not permitted in any of the labs) on or near
computer equipment.
Don't abuse the privileges you have.
Computer Center staff, take note.
Lines of three to four people deep at peak hours are becom-
ing more common in Donnelly 250.
The lines are longer once the Lowell Thomas lab closes at 10:30
each weeknight, and especially on Sunday night, when Lowell
Thomas closes at 5 p.m. and the PC Support Center closes at
7
p.m.
The number of broken or out-of-order terminals makes those
lines longer and more frustrating.
These two problems demand more attention and better
solutions.
The repair of these terminals rests in your hands. They need
to
be fixed much more quickly. The repair process is much too
slow, and entails too much red tape.
Problem report cards were a good idea, but they don't always
seem to reach the right people. Users are expected to fill out cards
telling of a specific problem, and drop them in a cardboard box.
That procedure takes too long.
There must be more computers installed, especially PCs. And
the hours of the Lowell Thomas lab and the PC Support Center
desperately have to be lengthened.
It is evident that a large part of the student population does
its work at hours during which these labs are not open, most
notably Sunday evenings.
And 22 terminals -
when they are all in working order -
that have 24-hour accessibility in Donnelly 2~0 are not enough.

Thinking
Between
The
Lines
By clearing the group
.
of an obscenity rap
in a Fort Lauderdale, Fla. courtroom, a jury
once again thrust the question of art versus
obscenity iqto uncertainty.
The sad part of all this,
I
admit, is
I
agree
with the verdict returned saying that
2
Live
Crud (Crew) is innocent.
The Supreme Court has stipulated that any
work having literary, political, artistic or
scientific value is not obscene and therefore
protected by the Constitution.
The defendants in the case, the three
members of the group, each faced a
$1,000
·
fine and up to a year in jail as a result of the
charges that they were performing obscene-
ly in public.
The band was on tour performing at an
adults-only nightclub when
·
they were
arrested.
The jury in the
2
Live Crew trial said there
was some artistic merit in the their work.
If
this is so, then they had no choice but to find
the controversial, but nonetheless popular,
rap group innocent.
The jury even found got a kick out of the
lyrics.
"We found many of the things very
humorous," said juror Beverly Resnick, 65.
"We thought it had some art in it," she
added.
It reminds me of the old, but relevant, say-
ing regarding juries. The saying goes
"I
wouldn't want to put the fate of justice into
the hands of people not smart enough to get
out of jury duty."
Are you listening Beverly?
What's so funny about lyrics that relegate
women to nothing more than "bitches," and
describe how women are forced to have
violent sex against their will, and among
other pleasant thoughts, lick feces
.
Makes you want to run out and pick up
the latest
2
Live Crud album right away.
huh?
·
Pretty funny isn't it?
"Suck my .... bitch, it'll make you
puke," the lyrics go.
Hysterical.
"(I'll) bust your p - - then break your
backbone."
Where's Robin Williams when you need
him?
I wish I could put in the really offensive
lyrics -
these are tame compared to some
others - but, as you all know, this is a col-
lege newspaper.
The irony-in all this is
2
Live Crud is pro-
tected by the First Amendment because some
consider this art. Not everyone has to see the
value in their work, only some.
Some people may not like it, especially
parents.
Tough. Watch your kids closely
.
(Sorry
folks, nobody ever said parenting was going
to be easy.)
Some people don't want to listen to this
stuff.
·
Don't buy it.
Some people don't want America's youth
exposed to such a savage and brutal
mentality.
Neither do
I,
but the only other choice is
censorship, something
I feel would do more
to undermine society than the rap rantings
of
a few morons like
2
Live Crew.
·
You
see,
sometimes there's not a good side
and a bad side to a situation. There's just
a bad side and a worse side. This is one of
those times.
Warning labels aside, (that's not censor-
ship -
just informative) it comes down to
one fundamental choice.
Censorship or Repulsion.
I'll choose repulsion.
·
Because just as the First Amendment
guarantees
2
Live Crew the right to perform
their "music" (and
I use the term generous-
ly), it also gives people like me the right to
voice my opinion.
·
And in my opinion, the members of the
group
2
Live Crew have al?out
as much
·
musical talent as your average house plant.
I don't want to take anything away from rap
music as a whole either -
I myself enjoy rap
and believe some of it is a true art form.
But this group couldn't care less about
art.

will be,

THE CIRCLE.VIEWPOINT
NOVEMBER

Letters to
·
the Editor
In defense of the GLBSA
No inconsistencies exist
Editor:
Last week Kevin St. Onge stag-
ed an attack on the Gay/Les-
bian/Bisexual Student Association
in his column "The Bottom Line."
I would like to address some of the
points that were brought up in the
column.
·
The first and most important
fact to recognize is that the entire
GLBSA did not put rip the posters
la~t week; individual-members put
up the posters. In
'd_oing
;
so,
the
group did not shift from a support
group. The posters were a visible
form of support for those students
that chose to come out.
While putting up the posters,
and afterwards, the students who
·
were involved were not hiding
·
behind "a veil of confidentiality."
Those individuals who put up the
flyers all did so in a very open man-
ner, where many students saw the
posters being put up.
The individual students (and
staff) that put up the posters in no
way tried to hide what they were
doing. In fact, several of the same
people wore shirts the next day
(Oct. 11) proclaiming their sexuali-
ty by wearing the same National
Coming Out Day icon that was
displayed around campus.
Kevin St. Onge suggests that put-
ting up posters is mutually ex-
clusive with proyiding'support. The
-.
GLBSA began
as
a·support group
and continues to provide this func-
tion. Kevin St. Onge clearly does
not have the same view of a sup-
port group as do as the members
of GLBSA.
We are going beyond a forum
for discussion; we never said that
we were going to limit ourselves to
discussion. We are not getting
political but we are attempting to
be educational. We simply used an
event as a vehicle to make the
group visible to the campus.
Kevin
·
St. Onge said, "Ad-
vocating
·
'National Coming Out
Day,' however, is not fostering in-
creased awareness of GLBSA; it is
advocating a position." National
Coming Out Day is not advocating
a position; it is a commemoration
of the gay rights 111arch in
Washington on Oct. 11, 1987. This
commemoration is celebrated by
many homosexuals by "coming out
of the closet" on this anniversary.
.
-We
are not advocating a posi-
tion, we are celebrating a landmark
~vent that took place and are
celebrating it by telling. people that
they have the support they need to
come out of the closet.
As
.
with "The Bottom Line," the
GLBSA and its members are not
seeking to expose anyone's sexuali-
ty. We are especially not condon-
ing that anyone be forced out of
the closet, since repercussions of
this on one's personal life are often
devastating. We are only indicating
that coming out of the closet is an
option for some people, and those
that it is an opinion for, we are
supporting.
Kevin St. Onge quotes one of the
GLBSA mailings as saying that
"Our group meets weekly in a
friendly, non-threatening environ-
ment.'.:.,This has always been true.
The,<a'ctions
.
of several group
members, outside of the meetings,
do not reflect the atmosphere that
prevails at the meetings.
The meetings must continue to
be held in a confidential forum
·
since many of the members do not
wish their sexuality known by
others on campus. These same
·
peo-
ple are the ones that did not par-
ticipate in the hanging of posters
around campus, thus there is no in-
consistency within the group, as
Kevin St. Onge suggests.
Mark Wilson
Operations Ana1yst, Class of 1990
Group has key role
Editor:
I wish to respond to the column
in the Oct. 18 edition of The Cir-
cle written by Kevin St. Onge.
His article addressed an issue
that' has been ignored for too long
on this campus. However,
it was
based
·on
several assumptions that
led him to
disregard the
significance of the Gay/Les-
bian/Bisexual Student Association
(GLBSA) and the group's recent
actions. In short, it
·
misses the
point.
-I question the validity of his
argument that hanging posters to
·
increase awareness about a national
event indi_cates a shift in the group
from support to advocate.
National Coming Out Day holds
incredible significance to the gay
community. Its purpose is to show
visibility and reach those people
who feel very isolated and alone in
an extremely heterosexual society.
The fact that individuals on
·
this
campus did not recognize this in-
dicates a need for increased sen-
sitivity to diversity issues.
It is naive to think that the sup-
port group can exist without ad-
vocating a position.
It
seems to me
that this is an inherent part of the
safe and non-threatening environ-
ment of which your column speaks.
Therefore, part of the support is in-
separably linked to fostering in-
creased awareness of issues that are
of concern to the group.
The sad reality is that
if
GLBSA
does not take the time to combat
ignorance on ~his campus, the
Marist environment will remain
dangerously unsafe for members of
the group. Hanging posters,
however, is not any more of a
political act than forming a group
in the first place, and GLBSA's
outreach in no way changes its pur-
.
pose as a forum for discussion.
Regarding the confidential
forum, I was most disturbed by the
notion that " .. .it is a contradiction
for those same students to advocate
an out-of-the-closet day." GLBSA
has been open to all people since
its beginning, not only those ques-
tioning their sexuality.
It is important that the Marist
community understands that being
gay is not about the right to
privacy. It is about the freedom to
be public. It means every day
fighting oppression, homophobia,
racism, misogyny, the bigotry of
religious hypocrites and self-
hatred.
It
means leading a different
sort of life.
Respecting the confidentiality
within the group then means
recognizing that GLBSA is not
about the mainstream. The con-
fidential forum provides safety for
members, while anyone who is sup-
portive can participate.
In providing this forum, Marist
recognizes the vulnerability of a
group that it had not considered
when it established its system for
forming groups. GLBSA is not a
club!
The purpose and inherent struc- ·
ture of the clubs and their charter
remains inapplicable to the purpose
of this support group. While Marist
might not have considered these
special circumstances until ap-
proached
-
by students, the legal
right for GLBSA
·
to· exist is
unquestionable!
It is important that the entire
Marist community realize that our
current system does not always take
into account the experience of all
people. As an institution of higher
education, Marist must commit
itself to a spirit of openness that
will allow us to see all the
possibilities.
The issue is not about incon-
sistency. It is about our willingness
for growth and building towards a
truly diverse community.

Midterms have come and gone
.
Grades should be in the mail. It's
time for the "Bottom Line" to
evaluate the fall semester 1990 at
Marist College and beyond.

.
the football team is finally win-
. ning on a regular ·basis. That has
to mean something.
Director of Student Activities
Steve Sansola seems to be more
comfortable in his new post. More
importantly that office seems to be
running more effectively than ever
before. The only basis for thinking
that, is student complaints about
activities (or lack the-reot) seem to
be down this year.
The Computer Center however,
is the source of much frustration.
Now, this columnist stays away
from computers as much as possi-
ble so these observations are strictly
hearsay, but the mood is one of
confusion. The ~arist-IBM joint
study is supposed to make this one
of the most technologically advanc-
ed small colleges in the country.
If
so, why is there only one CD Room
in the library?
Speaking of the library, it's
about time we face reality. Open-
ing the periodicals section to the
student body was a bad idea. Peo-
ple have no respect for the next per-
son that may need to use the same
magazine or journal. Never mind
just. having pages torn out of
magazines and journals, whole
publications are simply disappear-
ing. Research is no longer an
assignment, it's a crusade .
The Registrar's Office, probably
the most thankless job on campus
after Housing, is at least making an
effon to change. The new com-
puterized registration system still
has some bugs to work out,
like
not
being able to generate audits for
graduating seniors, but for the
most part they can find students
files when necessary.
The Mccann Center remains a
mystery. On three separate occa-
sions, it has arbitrarily closed ear-
ly on a Friday or Saturday evening.
The posted hours state it should re-
main open until 9:00 on those days.
Consider also last Saturday even-
ing; sure the field house area was
open but the maintenance staff
didn't bother cleaning up after the
football team ransacked the south
court.
Four students wanted to play
volleyball there but had to move
portable stands out of the way and
sweep the floor twice before the
surface was playable.
Spending in excess of $12,000 a
year to come to school here, it real-
ly is unfortunate students would
have to do somebody else's job just
to get in a little recreation.
The 101st Congress has come to
a close.
It
started with the John
Tower nomination fiasco then went
on to embarrass itself with Speaker
of the House Jim Wright,

.

•
Massachusetts's Congressman
Barney Frank, the Keating Five
and yet another budget mess. The
result of two years of anything but
Congressional leadership - apathy
at the polls next week.
BY THE WAY
...
The winter
intercession course schedule is now
out.
One, 3-credit class costs $714
and, unless it's changed from last
year, it costs $70 a week to stay in
college housing during the month
of January.
When paying tmuon for the
semester, it's easy to lose sight of
how much it really costs to attend
Marist. Dishing out one lump
check of
$4000
or S5000 a semester,
S7l4 for one class is peanuts
.
Think of it this way: How many
professors would you reach into
your pocket for and hand over that
kind of money for his or her exper-
tise in a given subject? It's a lot of
cash when you bring it down to its
base level.
Some will argue the costs of
education are not only measured in
the classroom but in the quality of
student life on campus. That is not
an argument that should be made
on this campus.
A junior
tells of
life abroad

Editor's Note: Jenn Johannessen
is a junior studying abroad at St.
Patrick's College in Maynooth,
Ireland. She is one of 13 students
studying abroad this year.
by
JENN JOHANNESSEN
"Let's
go have some good
crack," said my Irish housemate
Jaqueline Nolan.
Astounded by a particular
reference to a rather harmful and
illegal substance, I instinctively
replied, "What?"
"Crack, you kno'w," said
Jaqueline.
After she resuscitated me with
ammonia, I said, "Crack -
a
derivative of cocaine that's an
il-
legal substance in the U.S. and can
get you in a bit of trouble if found
in your possession. Is that what you
mean?"
Over her bellowing laughter, she
explained that "crack" in Ireland
meant to have some fun -
to en-
joy oneself thoroughly.
Still jilted by this strangely
glorified use of a word considered
less than joyous in some American
social circles, I soon discovered that
not all English is the same on the
other side of the Atlantic as it is in
the States
.
During a conversation
with
my
international
housemates
(Scotland, Germany and Ireland) in
a crowded school lounge, we
discussed how we thought one
another would act. Jaqueline
thought I'd be an American big on
what she called "hand-slapping"
(example -
"gimme five").
Making light of her remark, I
said loudly, "slip me some skins."
And suddenly other people started
to stare at us and Jacqueline started
to laugh. She told me in a hushed
voice that "skins" meant condoms,
and th
_
at I ju~t ~ight get my wish.
With people glaring at our out-
burst of laughter, I decided after
the rhetorical blunder I had made,
to keep that part of my American
heritage to myself.
There are several words and
phrases that can have an am-
biguous meaning in Ireland
-
whether you know it or not. What
one word or phrase may mean to
an American may not necessarily
mean the same to an Irish native.
For instance,
ir
you were to
"call"
·
someone in the United
Kingdom, it would be interpreted
not as a telephone call, but as a visit
to their home.
A more well-known ambiguity
on opposing sides of the Atlantic
involves the word "chips."
If you were in a UK restaurant
and wanted chips with your sand-
wich, you would not receive potato
chips, but instead steak fries. In the
UK, potato chips arc called
"crisps."
The difference in language take~
some
12ettinc
used to but
it
is ali
part of the fun living in a foreign
country.
So if you are looking for some
"good crack" or someone to "slip
you some skins" in Ireland, you
may not get what you want. Then
again you may not be totally disap-
pointed with the outcome you
recei"·e
.

I learned in psychology class
back in sophomore year that fin-
ding a mentor is essential in order
for
a
person to develop fully and
properly advance through the
stages of
life.
·
·
This made me a bit nervous.
If
I
didn't find this mentor person,
maybe I'd be stuck in one of life's
stages. Even worse
than
that,
I
might be underdeveloped.
I
soothed the anxiety
I
felt by
convincing myself that l still had
plenty of time to seek out a men-
tor and claim him/her
as
my own.
It's now two and a half years
later, I've started my senior year,
and
I
realize I'm still mentor-less.
The anxiety I once felt has now
turned to hard core
_
fear. I'm
doomed to a future filled with con-
fusion and uncertainty unless I find
someone to guide me through. I
need a mentor -
and
J need one
quickly.
Alright, I need to calm down and
start to think rationally about this.

How hard can it really be to find
one?

They probably have a store call-
ed "Mentors R' Us," where you go
and fill out a ten-page question-

you one.
I let my fingers do the walking
through the good old yellow pages
and much to my disappointment I
came up empty handed.

there's one thing I've learned
in college it's that before you write
a paper, you have to do the

Further debate on abortion
New degree
clarified
Human rights is the issue
What about the victim?
Editor:
.
I ~elie-.:e that Nathan Strong
overs1mphfies the abortion issue
(The Circle, Oct.
1~,
1990).
The fundamental issue in abor-
tion is whether or not the unborn
is a human being. To state that
human
life
is
not "the issue at all"
is
unacceptable. Strong believes the
issue
is
"human-ness," "when that
organism
·
can
be considered a per-
·
son."
·
This is, of course, to
·
ope~· the
door once again to Nazi eugenics.
As
Dr. Pellegrino, head of the Ken-
nedy Center for Bio~Ethics in
Washington, said
:
at Marist
·
two
years ago, "quality of
life'.(
deci
-
sions are impossible to make,
because we all have very differing
judgments on that q11ality.
A skier, said Pellegrino, believes
that a wheelchair-bound person has
no quality of life whatsoever;
eugenically that person should be
liquidated. As for me, I thank
Marist daily for its commitment to
the handicapped and to the
outstanding work, done by Dr.
Diane Perreira and the Office of
Special Services.
They remind us daily that quali-
ty of life is to be decided by the in-
dividual and not by others. The un-
born cannot
be
consulted; they are
poisoned to death or dismembered
limb by limb. Abortion is the
ultimate example of "might is
right."
To state that science has not
decided when the unborn is a
human being is also wrong.
Biological science has in fact said
that viability outside the womb is
the definitive sign of a human
being.
.
.
That viability has been legally
established in most countries at 22
weeks, though premature babies
have been born and have grown
·
normally after birth as early as 18
weeks, and in one case, 16 weeks.
Roe v. Wade has been liberally
interpreted to allow abortion on de-
mand even beyond the point of
such viability. The
.
demographic
crisis now facing colleges is a direct
result of the 23 million human be-
ings aborted in the USAsince 1973
.
Finally, to state that abortion is
a religious issue and not a medical
issue and a human rights issue is,
again, wrong. Are we to . also
·
believe that euthanasia is a purely
religious issue? that eugenics is a
purely religious issue? that the state
has no right or duty to protect life
and limb at any moment of human
existence? To believe such opens
the door wide to unlimited human
rights abuses.
Bro. Joseph L.R. Belan~er, FMS
Editor:
I
have noticed glaring in-
congruities within Nathan Strong's
published article in The Circle
dated Oct. 18, 1990.
First of all, Mr. Strong never
once referred to in any substantial
way the exclusive victim of abor-
tion -
the unborn child.
The fact that the unborn child's
heartbeat, brain activity and all in-
ternal bodily functions are fully
operational within the first
trimester of a mother's pregnancy
clearly indicates that abortion does
not merely involve fetal tissue, dur-
ing a time when Nathan Strong said
91
fljo
of abortions are performed.
Secondly, Mr. Strong would
falsely lead us to believe that when
a human sperm and a human ovum
unite, what results is something less
than biologically human.
For example, the California
Medical Association, through its
publication "The California
Medicine" in September 1970, urg-
ed pro-abortionists in an editorial
not to deny the humanity of the un-

because to do so "would be a
curious avoidance of scientific
fact."
Thirdly, to make abortion ap
-
pear as a religious issue is a fallacy.
For example, Dr. Bernard Nathan-
son, who is an agnostic from a
Jewish background, was a foun-
ding member of NARAL (National
Association for the Repeal of
Abortion Laws). He himself per-
formed 60,000 abortions and stated
that anyone who makes abortion a
religious issue is copping out.
It is, in fact, a human rights issue
and moral issue, not a religious
one
.
Dr. Nathanson headed the
largest abortion clinic in the early
1970s, and who today, in the
vanguard of the Right to Life
movement, would truly be in a
position to make this judgment.
I believe the above is sufficient
to clearly illustrate the need to re-
evaluate the complete magnitude of
the abortion issue.
Cindy Dennelly
Junior
Editor:
Thank you for the Oct.
4
story
on Marist's new graduate program,
the master of arts degree in educa-
tional psychology. Staff Writer
Jennifer Rivera did well in captur-
ing much of the definition and
spirit of a unique program.
I would like to make one point
of clarification, however. One of
the program's intents is not to help
schools and teachers to "install"
values in children. Rather
it
is to
equip teachers with an awareness
and through knowledge of the
various processes associated with
the formation of values.
Knowing how students acquire
values and applying that knowledge
to classroom practice will result in
helping students to better choose to
·
act responsibly.
Acquiring values is making them
your own; they become part of
you. That is more effective than
teachers "instilling" values or tell-
ing students how to act and feel
and think.
If
you do that, students
will go through the paces, but their
behavior probably won't be lasting
because they haven't bought into it.

Sports Editor
The Marist Hockey Club open-

season by skating to a
4-4
tie against Southern
·
Connec-
ticut State University on Saturday;
Head coach Bob Mattice said
that he was pleased with the team's
effort.
"Southern is a really strong
team," he said. "We took it to
them. Their goalie had an outstan-
ding game.
I thought we played
better hockey, but the goalie was
tremendous and
I
thought we could
have won."
Marist was leading
4-3
and
Southern scored with
:06
seconds
left in the game to force a tie.
"We played well, but that goal
was a bit of a heart breaker," said
Mattice. "There was a face-off in
our end and they pulled their goalie
to have an extra attacker. We had
a basic fundamental lapse on
defense. We were unable to pick up
everyone."
"We can't be real upset," Mat-
tice said. "We played a very strong
team. Anytime you can come away
with a tie on the other team's home

Because Marist has expanded its
athletic programs by adding four
new Division
I sports and 35 new
scholarships, it
will
be rewarded for
its broad-based program.
"The only problem we have is
the fact that the plan is retroac-
tive," said Doris. "Because we are
adding our sports next year, we
won't
see an affect until the follow-
ing vear."
Marist will be adding baseball,
softball, and indoor and outdoor
track beginning in
1991.
Each school will also be receiv-
ing
$25,000
to enhance its academic
support programs for athletes, said
Doris.
The money received will be in-
vested into the proper program,
said Doris.
"The scholarship money will go
to the scholarship fund and the
academic support money
will go
toward enhancing our current sup-
port programs," he said; "That is
the logical place to put it, because,
in
effect, we are paying back the in-
stitution.''
The NCAA's plan is also draw-
ing attention to sports other than
basketball, said Doris.
"It is bringing recognition to the
other sports, which is good, it's
reform. Schools are no longer get-
ting money for one sport such
as
.
basketball," he said.
"Because of the broad-based
program idea, it encourages
schools to
win
other championships
like either baseball and tennis, for
exarnole." said Doris.
The distribution formula ac-
counts for
$70
million of the
SI 15
million the NCAA
will
receive
from CBS this
vear.
The remainder of the money will
be
used for emergency injury in-
surance for athletes in all three divi-
sions, increased funds for Division
II and Division III championships
and it will also establish a
S3
million emergency fund for needy
Division
I athletes.
ice, you can't be to disappointed.
This was a good showing for our
first game."
Scoring first for Marist was
senior co-captain Kevin Walsh.
Assisting Walsh were John Walker
and Ed Sherako.
Glenn Schlie::f: a sophomore
tallied the Red Foxes second goal
on an assist from Brendan McDon-
nell and Greg Kavanagh. "That
was a nice goal, he made a real
good shot," said Mattice.
Junior Scott Doyle scored
Marist's third goal unassisted.
Scott Brown scored the fourth
Red
Fox goal on an assist from Paul
Lloyd.
Mattice credited the play of
Marist'goalie
Mike Rodia. "Mike ·
played a real solid game in goal for
us," he said.
After finishing last season with
a regular season mark of
14-4,
Mattice said that he feels this year's
souad is even stronger.
"We are stronger than last
year,"
he said. "I don't want to be
overly optimistic,
because
we
are
in
a
stronger division this year.
However,
I
think we
will finfsh
above .500. It is good competition.
One thing the ieam has to realize
is that they are going to have to
play intense hockey every night in
order to compete. I don't like to
make predictions, but I'm looking
for
a .i::ood year."
Maiist played in the final four of
the
Empire Division last year and
conference officials moved them up
·
to
the Garden Division, which will
provide
.
the Red Foxes with
stronger competition, said Mattice.
Mattice said the team is
a
solid
mix of veterans and newcomers.
"The veterans came back bigger
and
stronger, and the newcomers
will do a fine job of replacing the
players we lost to graduation," he
said.
Tom Regan and Kavanagh both
have played well defensively, said
Mattice. "They played real strong
and real aggressive." he said.
The brother combination of Paul
and John Lloyd also look strong,
said Mattice. "They are doing good
things for us, both are playing
well."
The Red Foxes next game
will
be
Nov. 10 at the Mid-Hudson Civic

"We will try and get back at
Iona," he said. "We want revenge
from when they beat us. It
should
be a really tough game."

Boaters slump continues;
lose seventh straight
by

The Marist soccer team lost its
seventh straight game Sunday when
it dropped a 4-0 decision to Adelphi
University.
Prior to Adelphi, the Red Foxes
were defeated by Oneonta State,
Fairleigh Dickinson University,
Fairfield University and Long
Island University.
The Red Foxes overall record
stands at 4-14 while posting a
1-6
mark in Northeast Conference
play.
Marist will not be playing in the
conference tournament as only the
top four teams
·
make the playoffs,
said head
coach
Dr. Howard
Goldman.
Against Adelphi, Goldman said
the Red Foxes were simply
overmatched.
"We met a very good team that
had stronger, better players
than
us,"
he
said.
"We didn't play th,

and
·,•.:

them."
.
"\Ve
weren't making the most
of
our opportunities," said Goldm:rn.
"We had some
-
decent
shots,
but
we were unable to
get
anything on
the board."
Adelphi scored two
goals
in each
half
to
earn the victory.
Goldman said injuries played a
factor in the game.
"Two of our key defenders, Lou
Schmidt and Mike Kelly, were both
out with injuries,
so
that was
s
omewhat of a problem," he
said.
Against LIU, the Red Foxes
were handed
a
7- I
defeat.
"That is a game I would rather
forget," said Goldman. "We let
them take control. They were play-
ing poor pnor to tnat game ane1 we
let them play their game. We
played
_
scared, it was not really a
good game."
The Blackbirds outshot the Red
Foxes 23-15.
Marist finished its season yester-
day against Manhattan College.
Results were unavailable at press
time.
Goldman said that the poor
won-loss record could be attributed
to inexperience.
"I'm disappointed in that we
didn't win some games that we
could have won," he
said. "'\Ve
arc
a young team that i
s ca

Gridders back on track; upset St. John's
by

Sports Editor
·
The Marist football team return-
ed to its winning ways Saturday
when it scored an upset victory over
St. John's University
26-15
at
Leonidoff Field.
"This was a real big win for the
program," said head coach Rick
Pardy. "What makes it big is the
fact that we beat a strong program.
After losing big in our first game,
2.
we are still having to prove to peo-
ple that we are a strong team."
The win gives the Red Foxes an
overall record of 5-2-1 and an
Atlantic Collegiate Football Con-
ference mark of 3-0
.
Saturday, Marist travels to
Loudonville, N. Y. to take on Siena
College in a ACFC matchup. The
Red Foxes downed Siena last year
34-0.
Siena enters the game with a
1-6
overall record and a 1-3 mark
in the ACFC.
Against
:;1.
John's, Marist was
up against a team it had beaten on-
ly once in the 12 year series. That
lone win came in 1980. Last year,
the Redinen downed the Red Foxes
34-7.
The Red Foxes were the first to
get points on the board. Junior
fullback Pat Mullaly rambled in
from two yards out for the
touchdown
at 4:26 of the first
quarter. Brian McCourt added the
extra point.
Defensive end Tom Coyne, senior, leads the Marist defense in its win against St. John's
University Saturday.
St. John's threatened late in the
second quarter. However, the drive
stalled when Matt Daly recovered
an Anthony Russo fumble on the
Redmen 31 yard-line
.
with :32
seconds left in the half.
·
Four plays later, quarterback
Dan O'Donnell connected
with
Matt Murray on
a
nine-yard
touchdown strike
with :04
.
seconds
left in the half. McCourt's kick
made it 14-0 at the half.
The
teams
exchanged
touchdowns to start the second
half.
St. John's made the score 14-7
when Shawn Bannon connected
with Anthony Iadevaio on a
69
yard touchdown pass
.
Marist bounced back ori its first
posession to go ahead 20-7. The 10
play 68 yard drive was capped off
when Mullaly scampered in from
10
yards for his second touchdown
of the dav.
The Red Foxes pulled ahead 23-7
with
1 :25 left in the third quarter
when Mccourt kicked a 30 yard
field goal.
St. John's pulled within eight
points with over
·
10 minutes left in
the game when Russo scored on a
nine yard run. The two point con-
version was successful.
Mccourt wrapped up the scor-
ing with
~
20
yard field goal.
Defensively, the Red Foxes wer'!
.
Jed by the secondary. Arthur
Nelbach, Kevin Simonetty, Leroy
Graham and Bob Mealia each had
an interceotion.
Mealia also added nine tackles
and two sacks.
"The defensive backs were ex-
ceptional," said Pardy .. C<They all
came up big. Having four intercep-
tions was a big key for us."
"This was an across the board
win," he said. "The defense was
strong and the offense responded
when we needed them to do."
Mealia said that the win was not
an upset.
"This was a great win, it's not
an upset," he said.
"I
really think
we are strong enough to play with
any Division III team. Our history
makes us the underdog but we have
proved ourselves, we are for real
.this
year."
·
"We arc; starting to do some
good things," said Pardy. "We
know that we have improved, but
·
we have some work to do. This was
a real solid effort for us."
The Red Foxes gained 227 yards
on the ground. Freshmen Don
D' Aiuto led the attack with
117
yards on 23 carries.O'Donnell
completed 11 of 27 passes for 149
yards.
·
Sophomore linebacker Joe Ric-
cardi led the defense with 15
tackles. Junior linemen Chris Pratti
and Daly each added seven tackles.
Last week, Marist played to a
28-28 tie against RPI. D' Aiuto led
the ground attack with 118 yards
on
15
carries.
Against RPI junior flanker Dan
DelPrete broke his own single game
reception record. DelPrete snared
11
passes for 145 yards. He also set
the mark for most receptions in a
season with 38. DelPrete needs just
one more reception to break the
·
career reception mark of 70. He
also set the mark
for
most receiv
0
ing yards in a seas.on and is only
69
yards away from breaking the
career yardage mark of 1,060
yards.
O'Donnell also entered the
record books. The senior quarter-
back passed the mark for career
passing yards. Currently, O'Don-
nell has 2,943 yards.
NCAA fund
means more
for Marist

.
Marist College wiJI be receiving
$80,000 from the National Col-
legiate .Athletic Association
(NCAA) as part of the NCAA's
·seven-year $1 billion basketball
contract. with CBS Sports, said
Director of Athletics Gene Doris.
Although the plan is just a pro-
posal, Doris said it would probably
be finalized in December.
"It's just a committee report
now," he said ..
"I
really don't
think it will be overturned when the
college presidents vote later in the
year."
.
"It's more money than we've
·
gotten in the past," said Doris.
The nine members of the Nor-
theast Conference will all receive
roughly the same amount, he said.
Although there is more money
.
being distributed, the percentage
for each league really hasn't chang-
ed. Doris said.
''It is all relative, the bigger
schools are getting more money,
but the percentages are basica1ly
the same," said Doris. "It is just
a bigger piece of the pie for them.''
"The main focus was to try and
be fair, but to also satisfy the up-
per level constituencies because
they bring the money in in the first
place," he said.
Doris said that the league receiv-
ing the most money is the Atlantic
Coast Conference. Each school in
that conference will receive roughly
$800,000, he said.
''The bigger schools just get bet-
ter," he said. "There is continued
disparity. It allows the bigger
schools to do more things."
"We can't catch up to the big-
ger schools," he said. "The percen-
tages have to change in order for
the smaller schools to attempt to
catch up."
.
• .
The shares are determined by
performance in the NCAA tourna-
ment, the number. of Division I
sports played and the number of
scholarships offered.

College is for learning, not just for athletics
The purpose of coming to college
is to get an education -
not to play
football.
University of Southern Califor-
nia (USC) quarterback sensation
Todd Marinovich
was
reinstated to
the team by coach Larry Smith on
Monday.
The reason Marinovich was
reinstated is because he was
suspended by Smith for skipping
classes.
By skipping classes, Marinovich
violated an agreement he had with
Smith. The Trojan quarterback
was warned by his coach earlier in
the season about skipping classes.
Marinovich was side-lined for
one week of practice and he also
missed Saturday's game against
Arizona State. Senior backup
Shane Foley filled in nicely for the
sophomore superstar. Foley led the
Trojans to a 13-6 victory.
Although he has only played 1
I /2 seasons, Marinovich is already
number three on the Southern Cal
all- time passing list.
There is no question Marinovich
is talented. After all, his father
has
groomed him to be a big-time
quarterback.
Even before he
was
born, Todd's
mother was on a special diet in
.
I PCPl
order to assure his proper growth
as an athlete.
Playing college football was a
tradition in the Maririovich fami-
ly. Five generations before him
have played football for top college
programs
.
·
Marinovich's dad was going to
make sure
his
son
did
not preak the
chain.
While he was growing up, Todd
was given
all
the necessary
guidance to become a Southern
Cal
quarterback.
Marinovich had his own weight
coach to ensure he would develop
the strength he would need to suc-
ceed
as a sigrial caller.
He had his own gymnastics
coach. A quarterback need~ to be
quick, smooth on
his
feet and agile.
The
job of the gymnastics coach
was to make sure that Marinovich
had these qualities.
One of the craziest coaches that
Marinovich was an eye coach. His
role was to
·
make sure that
Marinovich had a proper \iew of
the field at all times. He taught
MarinO\ich how to utilize his
peripheral vision when standing
back in the pocket.
Also a
member
of the
Marino.,ich camp was a private
dietician. Here was a teenager
Thursday
Morning
Quarterback
MIKE O'FARRl:LL
growing up in California that could
not
have
McDonald's and could
only have a limited
amount of
chocolate.
There
is
no question in
his
father's mind that
Marinovich
was
going to be a success and he did
everything he could to make sure
of it.
His father was obsessed with
making
him
great.
But obsession often leads to
short-sightedness, and sometimes
even virtual blindness.
Will Todd benefit from his
father's actions in the long run?
On Mondav, Smith announced
that Marinovich "has fulfilled his
academic obligations and
is
ready
to play football again. We want to
put all of this behind us and move
on."
Credit Smith for taking a stand.
·
His move to suspend Marinoyich
was pure class. He showed that he
was not going to give special treat-
ment to a superstar.
Marinovich may not realize it,
but what Smith did was something
that will benefit Todd Marinovich,
not Southern Cal football.
College football needs more of
that.
Marinovich
called
his suspension
a "learning experience." He ~d it
was difficult to watch the game on
television and that he
was
happy to
be
playing again.
Marinovicli also said, "I have no
excuses for
missing class.
Everything
is
hunky-dory with the
academic people."
Hunky-dory? The academic
people?
·
It seems as though Marinovich
might have forgotten why he was
at college.
Despite what his father thinks,
he is not just there to play football.
Marinovich is at Southern Cal to
recei..-e an education. He is not
there to learn how to read a
defense. He is not there to become
the all-time leading passer in Tro-
jan history and become a number
one draft pick in the National
Football League.
Today's colleges and universities
need to realize that education
comes first, not athletics.
More and more, newspapers
report about athletes who haye
been arrested on drug charges or
suspended for either academic or
disciplinary reasons.
Take Charles Thompson, former
member of the Oklahoma Sooners.
Thompson was arrested on
cocaine
char~es. He
is
no longer part of the
team.
The National Collegiate Athletic
Association (NCAA) needs to
come down hard on programs that
are not up to par.
Wh,:ther or not the problem
is
the giving of illegal furids to the
players or having continual
disciplinary problems with players,
the NCAA carinot let down. It has
started to
toughen its standards,
but it cannot stop now.
It
,,.;11
be the athletes who will
suffer in the end.
With all the other coaches
around while he was growing up,
maybe Marinovich"s father should
have hired one more.
A tutor.

HOOP SCOOP:
Red FoXes .rich . with talented newcomers
by
MIKE O'FARRELL
Sports Editor
When the men's basketball team
opens its exhibition season Satur-
day night, there will be seven
players on the bench that were not
in uniform last year.
Gone from last year's squad are
Curtis Celestine and Joey O'Con-
nor. However, head coach Dave
Magarity and his staff have
brought in five new recruits to join
the two Proposition 48 players
from last year.
Heading the list of newcomers is
6
foot
7
inch junior college transfer
Fred Ingles, who played at
Allegheny Community College. In-
gles was a first team All-American
selection by the National Junior
· College Athletic Association.
Turner originally signed with the
Red Foxes in the spring of
1989,
however, he later decided to attend
St. Thomas More Preparatory
School in Connecticut.
Turner led the New England
Preparatory School League in both
scoring and rebounding with
21
points and 13 rebounds, respective-
ly. As a senior in high school,
Turner was an all-stater.
"Jason plays big inside,"
Magarity said. "He is tough on the
boards, and can play well in tran-
sition. He will have an impact on
this year's club."
Two newcomers on the front
court that were unable to play last
year due to Proposition 48 are
Sedric Veazey and Wilbert den
OudPn
. ''They will all play a part
in our success. They are
learning the system first
hand because the older
guys are really pushing
them in practice. This is a
solid group of players that
will-play a key role in our
future success."
Dexter Dunbar,. a 6 foot
freshmen point guard from New
York, N.Y., possesses a great deal
of quickness and court presence,
said Magarity.
"He is still learning the system,
however,
I
think he will see action
at the number one spot," he said.
"He gives us
a
quick, accelerating
guard that is capable of penetrating
as well
as
running the offense."
Joining Dunbar in the backcourt
is Chad Weikert, a 6 foot 2 inch
freshmen guard.
Weikert, who can play both
guard positions, averaged
11
points
and
4
assists per game at Memorial
High School in Indiana.
"Chad has good shooting abili-
ty and may find himself playing
some point guard as well. He is a
good role player with a solid feel
for ~he _
_ga~et Maga~ity said.
The final player to sign with the
Red Foxes is
6
foot
5 inch guard
Izett Buchanan from Goshen,
N.Y.
Buchanan, who led the Orange
County Interscholastic Athletic
Association in scoring with
33
points per game, has the ability to
play both guard positions.
Ingles'
19
points and
8
rebounds
a game led Allegheny to its first
ever NJCAA Division II national
championship.
"Fred will have
an
impact on our
club," said Magarity. "He has the
ability to score and rebound inside,
while also showing his versatility."
den Ouden, who hails from the
Netherlands, is a 7 foot 1 inch
center that Magarity said is getting
better each time he practices.
"He is going to
be
a good player,
he just . needs
11
to leam-
1
and
·
play
every day," Magarity said. "He is
working real hard and is absorbing
things in practice everyday. He
wants to become better and is
showing constant improvement.''

•~He is a key player in our pro-
gram," Magarity said. "He is a
real talent, he
can
run the floor real
well and has the ability to rebound
as well. He may be a diamond in
the rough."
Magarity said the newcomers are
expected to contribute, but he is
not putting it in a time frame,
Ingles has been selected as the
Northeast Conference Newcomer
of the Year by at least two pre-
season guides.
As an assistant coach, Davis
adds experience to the program,
said Magarity.
·
"He is learning our system and
should be able to produce for us,"
said Magaritv.
Joinin-g Ingles in the front court
is Jason Turner, a
6
foot
7
inch for-
ward from Bridgeport, Conn.
The
6
foot

inch Veazey averag-

points and
15

game
as
a senior at Notre Dame
High School in Connecticut. He
will provide the Red Foxes with
·front line strength and quickness

Silent seniors provide stability on court

· When basketball season ends in March,
much of Marist's success will fall on the
shoulders of George Siegrist and Danielle
Galarneau.
The two senior forwards may not be the
flashiest players, but when it comes·to hard
work and dedication, they certainly fit the
mold.
Four years ago, Siegrist came to Marist as ·
a walk-on from nearby Roosevelt High
School in Hyde Park.
. .
Before his sophomore. season, Siegrist's
hard work paid off as he was awarded a full
scholarship. Last season, although averag-
ing only five points per game, he started 25
games and was a team captain.

"George wasn't satisfied with just mak-

said head coach Dave Magari-
ty. "He wanted to start, and he earned it.
He deserves a great deal of credit for what
he has done."
"I
was determined to make the team my

happened,

just took it one
step at a time."
When seeing a boxscore of a Marist vic-
tory, one does not appreciate the effort of
Siegrist.

said. "He is mature and knows how the

Red Foxes gearing
·
up
for key conf ere nee hunt
by
MIKE O'FARRELL
Sports Editor
At this time last year, the men's
basketball team was preparing for
an explosive season following the
two-year probation imposed upon
Marist by the National Collegiate
Athletic Association (NCAA).
The Red Foxes posted an im-
pressive
17-11
record before ending
the season with a Northeast Con-
ference (NEC) tournament loss to
Wagner College.
.
This season, Marist will try to
duplicate that mark while proving
tl;tat an NEC championship is not
out of reach.
·
Gone from last year's squad are
forwards Curtis Celestine and Ted .
Sharpenter, along with point guard
Joey O'Connor. The three combin-
ed to average 25 points and 13 re-
bounds per game last season.
Also missing from last season
will be Rod Henderson, whom
head coach Dave Magarity will red-
shirt this season.
Henderson, who transferred here
last season from Pensacola Junior
College, came off the bench to
average eight points and four re-
bounds per game last year.
"He is in good academic stan-
ding," said Magarity. "But we
want him to work hard in the
classroom and become stable."
Along with the six returning let-
termen, Magarity has seven first-
year players that will try and fill the
gaps left by Celestine, Sharpenter,
Henderson and O'Connor.
"We have
an
entirely different
outlook than last year " said
Magarity. "Last year's t ~
had to
overcome a lot of adversity with the
whole probation situation. That's
gone, and this -team has the same
desire, but with seven new guys, it
becomes a learning experience for
them."
"So far," said Magarity, "I am
really pleased with the way in which
the new kids are learning the
system. The practices have been
really competitive, the older guys
are playing real hard right now and .
the younger guys are learning from
them."
·
Leading the group of returning
lettermen is
6
foot
3
inch senior
guard Steve Paterno.
A second team All-NEC selec-
tion last year, Paterno led the Red
Foxes in scoring with 14 points per
game. Paterno has a solid grasp on
the number two guard spot.
"There is no question that Stevie
is going to be getting his shots "
said Magarity. "He's an outsta'n-
ding shooter."
Paterno has been hampered a bit
by injuries in · the pre-season
Magarity said.
'
. "His timing has been off just a
bit b~caus~ of a knee injury, but
that 1s behmd him and he is star-
ting to play like he can " he said.
,Joining Paterno in th~ backcourt
will most likely be Andy Lake. A
6
foot
3
inch guard, Lake was nam-
ed to the NEC All-Newcomer
team. The sophomore averaged
9
points and 2.5 rebounds last year
while coming off the bench.
"Andy did a solid job last year
coming off the bench," Magarity
said. "He_ can shoot the ball well
from the outside while also being
able to penetrate in the lane. His
presence adds versatility to our
lineup."
The forward positions will be an-
chored by seniors Reggie Gaut and
George Siegrist, both starters last
year.
After suffering a dismal
sophomore season, Gaut, who
stands ·6 foot 4 inches returned to
form last season a~eraging
11
points and five rebounds per con-
test. He may also be the Red Foxes
best defensive player.
"I'm looking for Reggie to con-
tinue where he left off last year,"
Magarity said. "He really improv-
ed his shooting last year and always
gave us an emotional lift."
Siegrist, the
6
foot
6
inch native
of Hyde Park, averaged four
points and three rebounds per
game last year.
'·You can't judge George by the
boxscore," Magarity said. "He
does the job quietly, whether it be
taking a charge or grabbing a big
rebound. He knows how to play
and he has a strong desire to get the
job done."
Also returning from last year our
senior guard Bobby Reasbeck and
junior forward Tom Fitzsimons.
The 6 foot 3 inch Reasbeck, who
can play both guard positions,
averaged two points per game last
year.
"Bobby will see action at both
the one and two guard spots," said
· Magarity. "He has been passing
the ball .real well in practice."
Fitzsimons, who stands
6
foot
9
inches, missed the second half of
last season because of academic
reasons and will be fighting for
a
position in the frontcourt.
"Tommy is going to have to earn
his time, as is everyone else," said
Magarity. ''His role is on his own
shoulders."
The newcomers will all be ex-
pected to contribute, Magarity
said.
Perhaps the biggest contribution
will be made by junior college
transfer Fred Ingles. The 6 foot 7

munity College has been tabbed the

"Fred gives us another scorer,"
Magarity said. "He is deceptive on
the inside and he knows how to win
and get things done."
Wilbert den· Ouden and Sedric
Veazey, both sophomores, will also
be competing for time in the front-
court. Both players sat out last year
due to Proposition 48.
Veazey, a 6 foot 8 inch forward,
possesses size and quickness that
will help the Red Foxes on the
boards · and in transition. den
Ouden, the
7

inch center
from the Netherlands, is still lear-
ning the system and is improving
everyday, said Magarity.
Also competing for playing time
in the frontcourt is
6
foot
7

freshmen forward Jason Turner.
Turner attended St. Thomas More
Preparatory School last year and
averaged 21 points and 13 re-
bounds per game.
"Jason is a strong player,"
Magarity said. "He can mix it up
inside and he has the ability to run
the court well."
The backcourt is also loaded
with depth. lzett Buchanan, Dex-
ter Dunl:iar and Chad Weikert will
all be vying for playing time.
The
6
foot
5
inch Buchanan may
be the best of the bunch. He
averaged 33 points and 14 re-
bounds per game as a high school
senior last year.
"lzett has tremendous athletic
ability," said Magarity. "He has
the ability to turn his game up a
notch if he has to."
.
Dunbar, a
6
foot point guard,
averaged six points and six assists
in his senior season.
"Dexter is a true point guard,"
said Magarity. "He is slowly lear-
ning our system and becoming a
better player everyday. He
can
run
the floor for us and has that abili-
ty to drive through the lane."
Weikert, who stands 6 feet 2 in-
ches, can play either backcourt
position. "Chad is · a good role
player, he shoots well and will be
able to play either guard spot "
Magarity said.
•
The Red Foxes will continue to
play their fast paced agressive style
of play like last year, said
Magarity.
"We are going to play an uptem-
po game," he said. "Our defensive
pressure was effective last year and
we are going to combine that with
the fast break. We are going to go
after people.
"We still have some fine tuning
to do on our pressure defense, but
this is a young team," said
Magarity.
The Red Foxes face a difficult
schedule early in the year and
Magarity hopes that will prepare
the team for its bid for the NEC
championship.
Marist opens the season with
James Madison University on the
road. The first Red Fox home game
is against Siena College. In
December, Marist will take part in
the Cable· Car Classic in Santa
Clara, Cal., which includes Santa
Clara, Princeton and the University
of California at Santa Barbara.
The Red Foxes finish the West
Coast trip with a game against the
University of San Francisco.
"The schedule is tough, it isn't
going to be easy on us in the begin-
ning," said Magarity. "There
aren't any real big names but four
of the schools have been the NCAA ·
tournament.
"I'm looking for patience early ·
in the season," he said.
"I
hope
that we reach our peak

ference is becoming very com-
petitive."

favorites in-
clude Monmouth College and St.
Francis (PA). Marist is picked to
finish no higher than fourth.
"We don't mind that at all,"
said Paterno. "Being in the middle
makes
us better
because we want to
prove that we are a strong team. If
we come together, I think that we
have a good shot at
it."

Entering this year, the women's
basketball program had a lot of
shoes to fill.

of Maureen Dowe and Laura

With that in mind, here is a look
at the new faces you v.ill
see
wear-
ing the red and white uniforms for
the Lady Red Foxes.
JEANNE RADICE (assistant
coach) -
Ok, so Radice_ will not
actually be wearing a uniform this
year, she is still an integral part of
the women's program.
Radice came to Marist from For-
dham University where she
graduated with a psychology degree
and a master's in education.
She was also one of the all-time
greats for the Fordham women's
basketball team, said coach Ken
Babineau. In her senior year she
was nominated for All-American
status while finishing in the top
three of the country in free throw
percentage.
Radice's primary job involves
working with the guards. ·However,
so far she has been involved in
everything from handling paper-
work to g_oing on recruiting trips.
She represents another Fordham
connection in the Marist Athletic
Department. (Dfrector of Athletics
Gene Doris also came to Marist
from Fordham.)
KRIS COLLINS -
Collins may
well
be
the best all-around athlete
on the team. She will see a great
deal of playing time. Collins comes
to Marist from Mitchell Junior
Colleg in New London, Ct. She
brings with her an impressive
resume.

on both knees during the off-
season and is not yet 100 percent

JANIS AWAD -
A
5 foot
6
inch guard f.rom Waterloo, On-
tario, Canada, Awad will be
primarily a backup to Claudia
Butler or Nancy Holbrook at the
point guard position.
She is a tremendous athlete, but
a little inexperienced, said
Babineau. As a high school senior,
Awas averaged 14 points, five
steals and five assists per game,
which earned her all-league status.
CYNTHIA CARROLL -
An
all-country performer in high
school, the
5
foot IO inch forward
from Media, Pa.
·
averaged IO
points and five rebounds per game
in her senior season.
Comparing her to sophomore
Charlene Fields, Babineau said that
Carroll can play either the shooting
guard spot or at small forward.
Babineau said that he has been
impressed at the "composed and
confident play" of the freshman.
"So
far in pre-season, she has been
playing real well," Babineau said.
"I
think she v.ill
be
able to con-
tribute right away," he said. "She
adds depth and versatility
to
our
program."
