Fried squirrel takes a bite
out of Marist' s . electricity
by
MATT MARTIN
Assistant Editor
Curiosity killed the cat, but in
• this case it was a squirrel.
The inquisitive creature manag-
ed to wedge its head in a pipe car-
rying power lines down a telephone
pole behind Sheahan Hall and fry
himself as well as the power to
most of the south end of campus
Monday afternoon.

"He (the squirrel) really got
s,f
himself stuffed in there," said a

spokesman for Central Hudson

Power. "He grounded the lines,
, \,.\which resulted in the outage."

Power was shorted out in Cham-

from 2: 15 to 4:30 as Central Hud-

"In fact, we just came from
Newburgh where we were fix_ing

The flames . from · the. burning

Relationships: a question of black and white
by
s;J. RICHARD
Editor
Jason and Lee are
a
normal
couple.
They
argue like couples do.
They make up like couples do.
However, Jason and Lee also get
pulled over by the police more
often
than other couples
do when
they
go
out on dates.
They are convinced
this is
because he is black and she
is
white.
Lee, a
junior
at Marist
College,
and
Jason, a • sophomore
at
Westchester
Community
College,
have
been
dating
each other for
more tlian
a
year now
and
have
been pulled over by the police
at
least four times, and
almost
always
the
same question is asked
of Lee:
Do you
want to be here?
"I
was shocked the first time the
• cop asked me," Lee said. "It made
me
wonder
if
he would
have said
anything
if
we were both white.
"The only way
I
know this is
an
interracial relationship is
because
of the way other people act," said
Lee, who asked that her real name
not be used since her father forbid
her to see Jason.
Lee said
her parents have
not
ever approved
of her
relationships.
Her last boyfriend
was Vietnamese.
"Maybe
if I
just dated
caucasians
they'd be happy," she said.
She began seeing Jason the sum-
mer before
her
sophomore year.
When her father found out about
the relationship, he reacted
violently.
•
Lee said the bruises left after her
father's volcanic tirade were
nothing compared to the deep scars
of scorn the thrashing left upon her
soul.
.
.
Jason, ori the other hand, said he
dealt with his girlfriend's father's·
obstinacy much more easily. He
said his perspective on interracial
relationships was formed 19 years
ago when he was born.
His
father
is
black and his
mother is white.
He says his parents have no pro-
blem with the relationship and that
his parents like her.
Despite her parents' orders, Lee
continued to see Jason. But her
parents were not the only ~nes ~ho
disapproved of the relat1onsh1p.
Because
of
her
parent's
unyielding obstinace, Lee has to
resort to lying and scheming when
she is home
to see
Jason.
"It's like I'm living two lives,"
she said.
"I don't like doing
it, but
it's my parent's fault I have do it."
-She said she has to make up excuses
and have. friends cover for her if
she sees him over vacations.
Jason said the situation is more
complicated than it seems.
"If
she's mad at me," he said,
"I can't call her or see her. She just
disappears for a few days."
This double life continues while
she is at school. Jason visits her on
weekends and has been in the room
when she is on the phone with her
parents.
"Here's my dad telling me how
much he misses me," she said.
"They think I'm this sweet, inno-
cent daughter. Little do they know
there is black man in my bed."
• While she is no longer under her
parents disapproving eyes, others
still cast shameful glances at the
young couple.
"I really don't care if people
look 'afus, .. said Jason.
"I
try not
to take any notice of
ii.''. : •
Still, he said, he knows.peoj:,ledo
stare. He said he is used to being
ogled by now.
"My parents still get looks," he
said. "Sometimes my brothers and
I walk ahead of my mom when
we're out somewhere. You know
people wonder what those black
kids are doing with that white
woman." He says none of that
matters when he's with Lee,
though.
Lee said she was more sensitive
to all the stares but gradually
became accustomed to it. After a
while, even being pulled over by the
police became commonplace.
Jason too said he was angered by
the police interference, but he
understands that people's attitudes
are hard to change.
He recalls one time when they
. were . standing together. , in· the
.Westchester Mall parking lot and
two· police officers interrupted their
·conversation. One officer escorted
him back to his car while the other
questioned Lee about Jason's
identity.
"The one walking with me l:ept
• his hand on his gun the entire
. time," he said. "Then we walked
back after I handed him my ID and
he asked her if she knew me and if
she wanted to be there."
Not all their police encounters
were so humorless, according to
Jason .
They were stopped yet again by .
a police officer one evening as they
were driving out of Blue Mountain
Park
in Peekskill,
Jason's
hometown. The officer asked each
for identification, but Lee had
none. The ensuing conversation left
no doubts in Jason's mind that the
officer was insinuating that Lee
was a prostitute.
"I
thought it was the funniest
thing,"
he said. "She didn't
understand at first. I had to explain
it to her."
Lee did not find it so humorous.
In fact, she said she was mortified.
"I was pissed," she said. "The guy
thought I was a hooker."
The frequent stops by police are
not the only negative reactions the
couple. Recently, they went out to
dinner
at
Applebee's
in
Poughkeepsie. While they were
waiting
for
a table, an older
woman kept staring at them.
"It
happens everywhere," she
said. "We were walking through

With student.government elec-

Marist coniniunity once again finds
itself in. a storm of campaigns,

earned her high praise from fellow

"She is doing an exceptional
job," said Kip Ferguson, a 22-year-

tion would be tough."
Jennifer McGauley, 21, a resi-

After running • ori and winning
with her '_'5C" platform last year,
Licari finds her. efforts after one
semester surmount to a self-
admitted ''improvable 3 out of 5."
The 5Cs, a buzz phrase of plat-
form issueflhat put Licariin of-
fice, were Communication, Canter-
bury, Commuters, Clubs and Con-
cerns, each. representing areas ·to
assume priority·· in a Lkari
administration.
Licari and some student senators
said Canterbury and Commuters
were the two goals of the platform
which proved to be troublesome.
Under Licari's plan, students liv-
ing at the Canterbury Garden
Apartments, along with commuters
in general, would become a more
integral part of campus life by
means of organized
socials,
cookouts and shows intended to
pull the two parts of the Marist
community closer together,
LoMonaco, a 21-year-old re.si-
dentsenatorfroni Canterbury, said
mariy students 'prefer the off-
campus social life.
Licari said she can not control
what students do socially.

parties and on~campus socials start

"It

with Licari's assessment.

programs, were successful, accor-

Cafeteria Charlie: he isn.'t.
jlls~
another pretty face • • ••
byCHRISTY GREEN
. Staff Writer
The • voice
• comes
from
•
somewhere beyond-the rubble.
• "Heey, petty.lady ... remobe yor
. fok fom the tray, peesepuyapaper
in da baket."
The sounds come from the hole
. where students bring their trays in
the Marist cafeteria. Deep inside
that opening is the domain of
Charlie
Shaw,
Marist'shead
dishwasher.
Shaw, 50, has.been working for
Marist for
20
years. He has some
mental· as well as many medical
disabilities.
.
Shaw can't read or write. He has
also had heart attacks, and he has
benign tumors growing throughout
his body.
Even faced with . these dif-
ficulties, Shaw is always able to do
his·job.
"Charlie is the hardest worker
we have," says Dan Lewis, food
service: director,
.
"Charlie arrives every morning
at 3 a.m. and works until 4 p.m.
He begins his day by setting rip cof-
fee and the ice.machines. Then he
sets up the salad bar and waits for
the arrival of the morning dishes."
While his co-workers admire
him, many Marist students have a
somewhat different reaction to
Shaw . -
especially the first time
they see and hear him in action. .
"It's a little scary to have so-
meone so loud screaming ·at you
• when you put your napkin in the
wrong spot,"says Virginia Barnes,
·19, a freshman from Bayside
Queens, N.Y.
•
"Charlie is very adamant about
how things are to be 'done,'' Lewis
says, explaining why Shaw reacts as
he does:
"He wants and expects things to
be done his way. · He has been
working at Marist for
20
years and
has a lot of experience."
Shaw loves his job, and he even
likes • the students. "They are
alright. They all say good morn-
ing."
While some students feel com-
pelled to· tease and be nasty to
Shaw, most are friendly. "Over the
years we have had some problems
with students being nasty, but this
year we have had few problems,"
Lewis says.
Shaw was born and raised in
Poughkeepsie. His parents were
killed when he was very young.
Asked about his parents, Shaw
points up and says, "They're in the
sky."
When _Shaw's parents died, he
and the other children in the fami-
ly were sent to group homes where
they were raised. Unable to read or
write, Shaw stayed thefe and was

This American student caught
some of the people off guard after
learning to speak their language,
and with this ability, it has led him
to discover the true differences bet-
ween the cultures.
"They are a little suprised that
American people my age, after just
learning about the Soviet Union,
are interested in learning Russian
language, especially since we've
been old enemies," Brown said.
"There's
a
lot they want to find
out about
America,
and
there's a
lot that we
need to find
out about
them. Because it was
all
a facade
before, on both . sides,"
Brown
said.
As for this semester,
Brown will
continue training
with the team,
but said it will
be hard because
of
his schedule which
entails
an Asian
history
course, a
Russian literature
course, and a Russian
language
course which he will, again, take
everyday. He
is
also
trying
to set
up a partial internship within a
Russian business language course
which would
let
him work in
society.
Upon returning
to Russia for this
Spring semester, Brown had plans
of traveling
to places like Moscow.
Siberia, and St. Petersburg
where
he will visit a student he met on a
previous trip to Russia.
... ·-
Counting the trip macte
tnlli
semester, it will be the fourth time
Brown has traveled to
.Russia,
which includes a two-week vacation
and
a
one-month winter interses-
sion trip, both of which were of-
fered by Marist. And the 1992 Fall
semester and this semester's trip
which were part of the Marist
Abroad Program.
Although a lot of western clothes
and fashions have hit Russia,
Americans generally stick out like
sore thumbs, but Brown, who
would rattier be a part of their
culture, dresses in his Russian
jacket and fur hat.
Brown had the opportunity last
semester to go to Moscow, where
he was able to see landmarks like
St. Basil's Cathedral, and the big-
gest McDonald's in the world,
where he spent much of his time.
"It's just like in America, they
try to make sure everything is
perfect for the customer," Brown
said. "You pay in rubles so the
average working citizen can go
there, but it's more of a treat for
most of them."
While living in Russia, Brown
was able to make many friends,
some of which were students, who
mainly want to learn the English
language because it will assist them
in getting decent jobs and traveling
abroad .

incumbent on the
gay
and lesbian
community to prop up the myth
that they do not serve in the
military along side their fellow
soldiers.
If nothing else,
it
is expensiv.e
keeping gays and lesbians out. In
the past decade, the services have
discharged about 14,000 homosex-
ual military personnel.
Figures released
by Time
magazine state that the Pentagon
spends tens of millions of dollars
every year to investigate, dismiss
and replace homosexual personnel,
in addition to the legal costs of
fighting discrimination claims in
the courts.
This price for the witch hunts of
these gays and lesbians soldiers
seems especially exorbitant in light
of the fact that the only return on
this investment is an illusion; name-
ly that tlie military is free of gays
and lesbians.

Many argue that the military is

is in a better position to deal with
this issue than the rest of society.

Perfect site - Champ. lot
Editor:·

.
.
After reading the
.first
issue of
The Circle in this new
year;
I felt
compelled to write and express my
anger at the decision (or indecision)
to move ihe graduation· site
..
After y$s
:of·being·
bounced
around the campus, it bad finally
settled
·in
the Champagnat lot for
the last couple of years. This seem-
ed to work the best.
•
.
•
The
surrounding hills are great
for viewing the ceremony, and the
size isjust right, (plus the.view of
the river is nice.) Tfind it hard to
believe that the construction (or
destruction) of.· Champagnat lot
cannot be pushed back one week.
The administration claims that
the construction would have to
begin· before May 22, if it isn't
completed by the Fall semester.
Who are they trying to kid?
First of all, Marist is notorious
for going over
their deadlines (and
budgets). Second, if the construc-
tion company is the same one that
did Donnelly Hall
.
(roof leaks),
Lowell Thomas (sinking), and
North Field (flooded), then itwill
take, at least, two times for them
to get it right.
.
•
.
.
The idea of the new dorm is a
solid one. After all, Marist is go-
ing to have to put all these students
somewhere. (Piece of advice for the

I would think Marist would want
to concentrate on improving _the
quality of education, instead of Just
reeling in the bodies.
As a communications major, I .
have taken, maybe, five courses out
of thirty that may have a direct
bearing on my career. And to those
who say that it is up to the stud~nt
to make his/her own education
worthwhile, I will tell you that I
have tried.
I
worked with WMCR since

•
year and briefly with
MCTV, both disgracefully under·
funded, and I am fed up with try-
ing to swim against the tide of red
tape.
President Murray is blind to the
potential of college radio and
television. Or is it that he
can
see
the potential and doesn't like it,
because he can't control it.
So, President Murray, while you
are sitting in your house (provided
by Marist) or while you are driv-
ing in your car, (also provided by
Marist), think about what the
students are saying, and don't turn
a deaf ear to us any longer.
And why not wait to start tear-
ing up Champagnat lot - think of
it as a graduation present to the
Class of '93.

The availability of student phone
numbers through

the student
phone directory and the newly in-
troduced Rolm Phone System may
be to blame for the drastic increase
in prank phone calls on campus.
"Since FOXNET was introduc-
ed to Marist two years ago, we've
had a dramatic increase in prank
phone calls," Dennis Costas,
patrol supervisor and investigator
for the Office of Safety and Securi-
ty said.
Costas said the majority of the
problem of prank. phone calls is
related to the phone system as well
as the student telephone directory
because anyone has access to a
phone number. Because of the new
phone system at Marist, anyone
can easily pick any. four numbers
to dial and prank someone, Costas
said.
Security files an average of 15 in-
cident reports· a· month for prank
phone calls, Costas said. Most of
the com laints are usually nuisance

The men's and women's indoor
track teams are preparing for their
last regular season Invitational of
the season.
The men's team will be traveling
to Hamilton College on Friday, to
participate in a four-teatn meet as
a last tune up for- the conference
championships.
According to Head Coach Pete
Calaizzo, each team member is
always looking to improve upon his
personal best time.
"We're interested in individual
improvements," he said.
Sophomore Dave Swift broke
the school record in the 5,000 meter
run at the West Point Invitational
on Jan. 31 on his way to receiving
Athlete of the Week honors.
The women's team will look for
a solid performance Friday despite
being without the services of
freshman: Coleen Carson .
According to women's Head
Coach Phil Kelly, Carson, who is
his best runner, is out due to an
illness.
"We'll do well,
_but
without Col-
leen we'll lose 15-20 points," he
added.
Kelly, said he likes to use his
distance runners in a variety of
events to pick up needed points.
On Feb. 21, both the women's
arid men's teams will be traveling
to Fairleigh Dickinson University
for the Northeast Conference
Championships.

Gridders gear for Div. I season
by ANDREW HOLMLUND
Staff Writer
.
According·
..
to
-an
East Coast
Athletic
Conference
official,
Marist football; along with
•
six
other area colleges which have.,
moved to Division I AA, will not
.be
offering athletic scholarships in
order for the schools to maintain
their respective budgets.
"It's a cost containment measure
for the colleges," Peggy Emery
said. "The schools agreed that they
want to play high-quality football
while saving their budget."
This new development, however,
does not phase Jim Parady.
Parady, who led the
Red
Foxes
to a respectable 4-5-1 mark in his
first campaign as head coach, said
he and his coaching staff are look-
ing fonvard to being in a new divi-
sion and have just started searching
for players.
Parady, who received the posi-
tion when his predecessor, Rick·
Pardy, accepted the head coaching
duties at Bates College in Masne,
said the program's recruiting pro-
cess would not change.
"We are going to use the same
recruiting process we have used
in years past," he said. "We will
contact different high schools and
have the high school coaches give
us names.
We
will then tell the
player what Marist has'to offer first
from an academic standpoint and
then as a football program," he
added .
According to Parady, the foot-
ball program is now at the Division
I level • because of riew NCAA
regulations.
"The reason we are moving to
Division. I AA is because NCAA
legislation now says that all major
. collegiate sports (football, basket-
ball, and baseball) have to be in the
same division that the basketball
program is in," he said.
Despite the promotion to Divi-
sion I, Parady said he does not
have plans to recruit an entire new
team.
"We are going to live and die
with the players we have now,"
Parady said.
"The
change won't
have an enormous effect because
teams that we have played in the
past like Iona, St. John's and
Wagner are moving with us."
Parady said he is not focusing on
recruiting defensive or offensive-
minded players, but explained his
team needs an effective linebacker
because of the loss of senior All-
American candidate Joe Riccardi.
"Basically, we are going after the
best athletes we can find," he said.
"However, we are looking into
linebacker personnel because we
n~ numbers at that position. Joe
has been the rock of our defense
for the past four seasons."
Parady, who was previously one
of the assistant football coaches
and head coach of the men's ten-
nis team~ said he will not be able
to coach tennis in the spring
because of time constraints.
"Last spring it was difficult for
me to recruit," he said. "Tennis
matches on the road; for example,
sometimes took up 6-7 hours of my
time."
•
Parady said he had fun coaching
a sport quite opposite from
football.
"I really enjoyed the team last
year," he said. "I'm going to miss
those guys."
Parady gave a brief preview for
the football campaign next season.
"We want to have a winning
record
-
next year and get into the
playoffs," he said. "It's going to
take playing great football and
some luck."
Parady also likes the chances for
success with his kicking unit.
"We should be solid at both ends
of the field," Parady said. "Our
kicking game looks good, too. We
have guys who can kick off and get
the football inside the IO-yard
line."
"During the off-season, we need
to work hard," he said. "The
younger people need to mature and
become the solid players they are
capable of being."
