, Swinging into action
5 get penalties
in party incident
Frat charter remains in question
by
MEGAN MCDONNELL
Senior Editor
Five students, originally suspended from school for holding an off-
campus party where alcohol was served to minors, have had their
disciplinary sanctions reduced to probation and community service, ac-
cording to a letter sent to the students by the dean of student affairs.
The students, who are all members of the fraternity Tau Kappa Ep-
•
silon, will be on disciplinary probation until May.
.
Additionally, each of the students must perform 25 hours of community
service working with children at the Catherine Street Center in
Poughkeepsie.
They are also prohibited from organizing any parties at an off-campus
house located on Route 9G.
After five students were hospitalized in the first
few
weeks of the
semester for alcohol poisoning, the college was forced to re-evaluate its
policy regarding off-campus parties.
None of the hospitalizations were linked to the off-campus party which
resulted in the five students being placed on probation.
Since each of the five students was in TKE, the college is also con-
sidering disciplinary action against the fraternity.
•
Peter Amato, assistant dean of student affairs, said he could not com-
ment on individual cases.
•
Although its charter was not revoked as a result of this episode, the
fraternity is under investigation, according to Gerard Cox, vice presi-
dent and dean for student affairs.
•
"It's been a rocky relationship and we'd like to take a look at what
their history has been," Cox said.
According to senior Ryan McEntee, a TKE member from Breezy Point,

not hold Marist
students.
Mrs. Manfredi, 74, and Man-
fredi, 83, sit on their front porch
and recall the good and the bad
that come along with living
amongst Marist students.
"They're not bad this year,"
said Mrs. Manfredi. "I hope they
stay that way."
Looking at the houses next to
their's, Mrs. Manfredi remembers
a time when they had problems
with the students.
"The first time they moved in
about 10 years ago, they knocked
our fence down, and those parties
would go on until three or four in
the morning," Mrs. Manfredi said.
Manfredi laughs and adds,
"What do they go to college for,
drinking on Friday nights?"
Mrs. Manfredi points to the
house on her left and recalls one
party abouf five years ago when
they· had
to
call the police.
There were about 80 people and
when the cops came, the kids
started coming out in lines, she
said.
"My God, we thought they were
soldiers; where did they put them
all?'~ she said. "It was bad."
Despite their problems over the
years, the Manfredi's have had
some good experiences with Marist
students.
"One
year, some of the boys left
•
a note on our porch saying we were
the nicest neighbors they ever
had," said Mrs. Manfredi.
Manfredi said this year one of
the boys came over to introduce
himself and shake hands.
"We can't condemn them all,"
he said. "Some of them are very
nice."
With the widening of Route
9
set
to take place next year, the Man-
fredi's will lose their home; the
other houses and businesses on
North Road from the gas station to
Skinners
will
also be removed.
Manfredi, a retired carpenter,
built their home himself.
"We're
really going to miss it,"
he said.
The Manfredi's don't know
where they will live when their
house is taken because they are still
waiting for an appraisal from the
state.

off" policy regarding regular off-campus students, Cox said.
Cox also said the rumors that off-campus parties must be registered
with Marist were untrue.
"Someone must have read the policy about on-campus parties in the
handbook, stretching that past what it really is," said Cox.
In fact, the college is considering a new policy toward the handling
of off-campus discipline.
The proposed policy, which will be voted on by the board of trustees
in the beginning of November, requires stronger evidence from police
that a student or students did something wrong, Cox said.
"The police shouldn't come to us and say that students are making
noise and putting garbage in the streets," he said.
"Let them serve summonses, make arrests and go to court to provide
proof that stu_dents have done something wrong," Cox added.
Matthew Thomson, student body president, said although "the local
authorities will be taking more of a lead, the school will continue
to
warn
students about disciplinary sanctions."
The purpose of the new proposal, according to Cox is to establish
a good-neighbor policy and to demonstrate a concern for ~thers, including
fellow students.
Students living off campus said they are in favor of the proposed
"hands-off'' policy.
"!he poi~~ of_ moving off campus is so that we don't have to live· by
Manst rules, said Karen Jordan, a senior from Farmingdale, N.Y. "We
pay rent to our landlord - not
to
Marist -

Faculty studies plan to restructure divisions

Linda Cool sees Marist's
development in human terms.
"Marist is like
an
adolescent - it
grows in spurts," says Cool, assis~
tant vice president of academic af-
fairs at Marist College.
The problem now is that its
arms
are too long for its sleeves and its
legs are too long for its pants, ac-
cording to Cool.
Because of those growth pro-
blems, the Marist faculty is con-
sidering proposals that would
eliminate the college's current
academic divisions and create
smaller departments, including a
separate department
of com-
munication arts.
Currently, the college is organiz-
ed into six divisions h~ded by a
chairperson appointed by the ad-
ministration. Communication arts,
rather than being a separate unit,
is one of several areas of studies
now in the Division of Arts and
Letters.
Any change in the college's
academic structure would have to
be approved by the board of
trustees.
While the faculty's proposal has
not specified what academic areas
would qualify as separate depart-
ments, The faculty in communica-
tion
arts
has officially requested
that it be one of the new
departments.
Under some proposals being
considered by the faculty, faculty
members in an academic area
would elect one of their members
to
serve
a
three-year
as
chairperson.
Faculty members want leaders
who are more responsive to the
concerns of specific disciplines,
said Dr. Richard Platt, com-
munications
arts
coordinator.
The plan allows for more direct
communication and decision malc:-
ing with the Academic Vice Presi-
dent Marc vanderHeyden for
"people working in the trenches,"
said Platt.
"The elected chair would be
more responsive and accountable
to the faculty as a faculty member
rather than as an (appointed) ad-
ministrator," Platt
•
stated in a
memo sent to the faculty's
Academic Affairs Committee.
A growing concern among com-
munications arts faculty about the
current division structure's lack of
effectiveness surfaced last spring,
according to Cool, who is acting
chair for the Division of Arts and
Letters.
"The Division of Arts and Let-
ters includes a variety of disciplines
-
communications,
English,
foreign language, art and fashion
design -
which make strange
bedfellows," Cool said.
Cool pointed out, however, that
faculty in some current divisions re-
main content with the present
organization of disciplines.
Academic restructuring of divi-
sions and the election of faculty
chairpersons top_ped the Faculty
Executive Committee's agenda for
discussion, according to Dr. Vin-
cent Toscano, chairman of the
committee.
"The gulf created between facul-
ty and administration could be
eliminated by changing the status
of the chairperson," Toscano said.
The elected chair acts an an ad-
vocate for the faculty and brings
their concerns
to
the administration
instead of having orders be sent
down the ranks, Toscano said.
"It would
be
very
shortsighted
of the college to only pull the com-
munications
arts
out of the Arts
and Letter Division," Cool said.

mediate problems, the move would

Who is television's top-dog at
Marist College?
Based upon which shows most

it
would appear the

Bart Simpson and Brandon
Walsh.
These happening men, who
represent the Fox Network's "The

"I'm not necessarily for that
type of censorship," Ferrante said,
"but I understand where they're
coming from."
Sophomore Tom Shlief, from
Goldens Bridg~, N.Y., however,
does see "The S1mpsons" address-
ing issues such as censorship and
corruption in government.
"They do it in a funny way,"
said Schlief. "They do tackle real
issues, whereas that 90210 crap is
so unrealistic, it's pathetic."
Others concur with Schlief's
belief that "The Simpsons" do, in
fact, create real-life scenarios.
"The Simpsons are realistic at
least," said junior Nathaniel Mur-
phy from Merrimac, Mass.
"I
was never a big fan of the
Simpsons, but Brandon and Dylan
are always hooking up with the hot
women," said junior Tim Burgess
from Howell, N.J.
The negative message behind
"The Simpsons" and Brandon's
sex appeal would appear to put the
90210 gang on top.
But still others said some people
are trying to nit-pick on Bart just
too much.
"People should understand that
this is just a cartoon," said Linda
Cenicola of Old Tappan, N.J.
"It
could convey poor messages,
but so do a lot of shows," she said.

Meanwhile,
"Beverly

The antics of Bart, however,
have brought more than laughs to
some students. For some, "The

Summertime spent
coaching b-ball
by
JOHN McAULIFFE
Staff Writer
In basketball,
traveling
is
something one tries to avoid - but
not in the eyes of Chris Bautista.
For this senior, the two went
hand-in-hand this summer as he
visited eight basketball camps over
a nine-week period.
Three of these camps were
hosted by the coaches of major col-
legiate basketball programs, such
as: Mike Krzyzewski of Duke,
John McLeod of Notre Dame and
Bobby Cremins of Georgia Tech.
Bautista learned a valuable
lesson in coaching while at the
Duke University Basketball School
in Durham, N.C., where he work-
ed with boys and girls of all ages.
"One must change the way one
deals with people. You cannot treat
all players in the same way - they
simply don't respond," he said.
At the Notre Dame Basketball
Camp in South Bend, Ind.,
Bautista was caught off-guard by
coach John McLeod.
He said: "I expected him to yell
and scream and be very loud, but
he wasn't. He got his points across
by being down to earth."
Bautista was also accepted to the
United States Military Academy
Basketball School, where coach
Tom Miller made a favorable
impression.
"He took time out to answer a
question I had," said Bautista.
"He did not give me one-word
answers - it was an in-depth con-
versation."
Bautista was reprimanded by
coach Miller once during this camp
for not keeping an eye on one of
his campers.
"He was right," said Bautista.
"It was my responsibility to keep
an eye on my players; you have to
almost be a father to these kids and
make sure they're growing up in
the right way."
Bautista then spent four weeks at
Marist's Basketball Camps before
heading down to Georgia Tech -
his last camp of the summer.
''We just had an all-around good
time," said Bautista.
But Bautista became disap-
pointed when he found out that his
ex-high- school teammate, Kenny
Anderson, would not be there.
Anderson and Bautista played
together at Archbishop Molloy,
along with St. John's Redmen
center, Robert Werdann.
At the conclusion of Georgia
Tech's camp, Bautista headed fur-
ther south to Tampa, Fla., where
he ended his summer visiting
relatives.
Bautista was able to become a
coach at these camps mostly
through contacts made by Athletic
Director Gene Doris and his own
letter writing, as well as references
given by Head Basketball Coach

Senior Chris Bautista spun his way around the south and midwest of the U.S. this summer
as a worker at summer camp for some college basketball powerhouses. Bautista is also
manager of the Marist basketball team.
Dave Magarity.
Bautista said, "They were the
main reason that my summer end-
ed up the way it did."
Magarity and Doris said that
they were happy to help Bautista
because of all he had done for
Marist in his years as basketball
manager.
"Meeting the right people, as
well as knowledge, are important
when it's time to get ahead," said
Doris. "I did it because I believe
in Chris Bautista - I respect him."
Bautista expressed his desire to
stay at Marist, even after his
graduation in May.
He said, "With 'the knowledge
l
have gained from four years at
Marist and my experiences this
summer, I hope to be able to give
back to Marist the opportunities
given to me - especially from the
athletic department.''
Magarity said he would like to
keep Bautista around, but with the
new NCAA limitations on the
amount of coaches a staff can
have, it may not be possible.
"It's not a good time to break
into the game," said Magarity. "I
hope it (rule changes) won't affect
him."
Recycling on campus: Programs are under way

Many Marist students are con-
cerned as to whether or not the col-
lege is doing enough to uphold the
new Dutchess County Mandatory
Recycling Law -that became effec-
tive for businesses on July
1, 1991.
Amy Rogers, a resident assistant
in charge of North End recycling,
said she was given only $50.00
from the college to buy recycling
containers for Benoit House,
Gregory
House,

Nine people, including four
Marist students, were arrested early
Sunday morning after 13 police of-
ficers sorted through a series of
fights involving 35 people attending
at a birthday party off campus, ac-
cording to the City of Poughkeep-
sie Police Department.
Seniors John Diaks, 21, of Lyn-
brook,
N.Y.,
John Broker, 21, of
Townhouses.
Marist officials said it is not on-
ly the college's responsibility to
recycle; students also have to get
involved.
In an effort to urge the students
to participate, the Department of
Housekeeping in conjunction with
S.E.G.A.,
the environmental
awareness group on campus, is
planning to start a program so that
students start recycling in the
dorms.
Connie McCaffery, director of
housekeeping, said, "By the end of
next week we hope to have a recycl-
ing program involving students."
Rogers has already started her
own program on the North End by
setting up bins for recyclable cans
in each townhouse section, Benoit,
and Gregory.
The proceeds from these cans go
to Shriner's Hospital to help han-
dicapped children.
Rogers has also set up bins for
glass, plastics, and tin in her own
townhouse, but so far, she said,
few people bring in anything.
The Mandatory Recycling Law
states, "all individuals, including
private companies must separate
recyclable materials from their
waste stream and arrange for the
separate
collection
of those
materials, so that they can be pro-
perly marketed and recycled."
The college is recyc\ing in the
public areas and offices, but
nothing can be done in the dorms
and other housing areas without
student contribution, McCaffery
said.
Because Marist doesn't enforce
a recycling program in its housing
areas, the school must pay a car-
ting company to separate the
garbage.

Birthday bash turned bust
New Haven, Ct., Devin Farley, 21,
of Bloomingdale, N.J., and Peter
Timpone, 21, of Woodstock, Vt.,
were arrested at 145 Washington
St., for disorderly conduct, said
David Bennett, a sargent from the
City of Poughkeepsie
Police
Department.
None of the students arrested
reside at 145 Washington St.
Additionally,
three female
students who do live at the
residence received summonses for
violating the City of Pouehkeep-
sie's noise ordinance, accorctmg to
Bennett, who responded to the
scene Sunday morning at 1:15 a.m.
All the residents of the house
asked that their names be withheld
from publication because of possi-
ble sanctions
from
college
administrators.
Fighting
broke
out when
resdents of the house asked four
non-Marist students to leave the
birthday party because they began
pouring beer in another resident's
face, said one female resident of
the house.
The four refused to leave and
became verbally and physically
abusive with the tenants and other
guests at the party, she said.
Verbal arguments developed in-
to a series of fights after a non-
Marist student shoved a Marist stu-
dent, said the resident, who said
she then convinced one of her
housemates to phone the City of

A record number of parking

month of September, according
to
J.F. Leary, director of the office of
safety and security.
As of Monday, members of
Leary's staff issued 850 tickets in
just a three-week span, said Leary,
whose staff usually writes about
350
tickets per month.
"We have got to protect the
parking spaces on campus. The on-

Leary said recent acquisitions of

one night a week for two hours;
however, the program became
enormously
popular,
causing
students to make appointments two
weeks in advance.
Jane O'Brien, director of health
services, said Bollmann spent
longer then the two hours on
several occasions, forcing students
to call in August to make an ap-
pointment for the beginning of the
fall semester.
Bollmann felt that a full-time
nurse practioner should be hired to
provide care for the increasing
number of students involved with
the program.
Bollmann also believed that the
students' gynecological care should
be available at health services in-
stead of the emergency room at St.
Francis.
"I don't feel the emergency
room is the appropriate place for
gynecological care. For the kinds of
problems students had, that isn't
what an emergency room is for,"
said Bollmann.
Bollmann also said she never
received some of the items she had
asked for during the time she work-
ed at health services.
However, O'Brien said the
equipment she believes Bollmann
was talking about wasn't necessary.
"I wish I could speak to Ann in
person. I think she wanted some
equipment
from St. Francis;
however, it wasn't necessary to
duplicate the equipment here if it
was going to be sent to St. Francis
anyway," said O'Brien.
Evidently, Bollmann had a full-
time position in addition to her
work at Marist; with the increase
in students, the demand for one
person was too much, according to
O'Brien.
As the number of students seek-
ing care increased, the service
became more valuable and more
needed, according to O'Brien.
"I've spoken to students who
never had a breast exam or pap
smear, and it was made available
to them. She (Ballmann) would
speak to them and give them infor-
mation,
counseling
and
reassurance," said O'Brien.

"Just as the enrollment increas-

Bollmann can do so by contacting

would have to cover the cost

When St. Francis locates a

health services.
The package available to residen-
tial
students

include
gynecological care, treatment at
health services and, if necessary,

Leary said.
If the owner of the vehicle turns
out to be a student, then the stu-
dent's

automatically, he added.
"Nobody should think they can
get away with parking if their vehi-
cle isn't registered. Especially with
this new system," Leary said.
The cost of performing a license
plate check is four dollars, which
is automatically debited from an
account of $400, according to
Leary, whose office is notified
when the account falls below the
minimum balance of SIOO.
"Hopefully people will start
parking in the correct lots and
realize we mean business," Leary
said.

Foreign films shown weekly;
students show· little· interest
21 Society succeeds,
let the good times roll
by
VINCENT J. ZURLO
Staff
Writer
Once again, Marist College is of-
fering the best of foreign films
every week this semester.
And once again, it seems the
students have little interest in
attending.
For films of such artistic merit,
the number of students attending
is small, much to the bewilderment
of Brother Joseph Belanger fms,
who runs the foreign film program.
"These are great movies. It's in-
comprehensible how you can have
800 communication majors and
have zero interest in foreign films.
lt's puzzling," Belanger.
"The last time "A Man Like
Eva" was shown on campus, We
got 11 people from New Paltz.
Anyone who has the slightest in-
terest in film would flock to see
Fassbinder," Belanger said.
Belanger searches for the best
foreign films to present each
semester at the foreign film pro-
gram. And this semester, once
again, 20 foreign movies, complete
with sub-titles, will be exhibited this
semester
for the cinematic and
cultural enrichment of the Marist
community.
The Fall Program, which began
on· September 19, runs through
November 24.
Each week, two films are shown,
Thursday through Sunday, at 7:30
p.m. in Donnelly Hall in room 237.
The program is open to students
and faculty, as well as the general
public, without cost.
The program has displayed 40
foreign films every year since 1983.
Marist College has been collec-
ting and presenting Foreign Films

films in the Marist Library, about
500 are foreign made.
Although technology has chang-
ed the format of film from 16mm
to videotape and has made films
more readily available to the
public, some films are still difficult

Alumni return to Marist for homecoming
by
VINCENT J. ZURLO
Staff Writer
one day of rain-ii' that day just happens to
be the day of the picnic.
Thousands of people have been invited to
play on Leonidoff Field this weekend. There
will be no referees, no cheerleaders and ab-
solutely no unnecessary roughness allowed.
Marist Alumni are returning to campus-
not to suit-up for a football game, but to at-
tend a picnic.
Homecoming,
also
known as Alumni
Weekend, is an annual event held on Col-
umbus Day Weekend, providing Marist
graduates with the opportunity to come back
to campus, socialize with former classmates
and enjoy any one of the 11 events schedul-
ed for the weekend.
Ideally, the alumni office would like to
have either a football
.or
soccer
game
on
Homecoming Weekend, but because of con-
flicting schedules, the office has planned an
alumni crew regatta, an alumni soccer game
and an alumni lacrosse game.
lhe
highlight of the weekend will be the
re-dedication of Donnelly Hall. The college
will pay tribute to the late Brother Nilus
Donnelly and honor the Marist Brothers that
built the original structure.
The list also includes the Alumni Family
Picnic and the Homecoming Brunch, two of
the most popular events, according to
Norman.
Norman said the weather is the biggest
single factor that determines the number of
alumni that attend.
"We
sit
around and cross our fingers the
night before the picnic," said Norman.

had a few unusual
mishaps.
"The picnic," said Norman, "is the
centerpiece of the whole event."
Last year, Jay Stricker, of dining
services,
was taken to the hospital while trying to
move a table when il fell and hit him on the
head, said Norman.
The college will welcome alumni on
Homecoming Weekend with a full schedule
of events beginning on Friday night and con-
tinuing through Sunday afternoon.
James G. Norman, director of alumni af-
fairs, said Homecoming is a tradition that
helps keep alumni in contact with the college.
In the past, Homecoming Weekend was
moved from Columbus Weekend to suit the
football
team's schedule, said Bryan
Maloney, former alumni director.
Norman, along with the alumni affairs
staff and alumni volunteers, has been work-
ing on Homecoming '91 since the day after
the last year's alumni weekend.
"For the alumni office, this is our major
event of the year," said Norman.
One of the glass doors was broken in Don-
nelly during an event.
"Somebody pulled on it, the handle came
off and the glass just shattered," Norman
said. "Hopefully, there will be no injuries
or broken doors
al
the re-dedication."
"It's a chance to see friends and faculty
members," said Norman. "It's a chance to
feel good about their alma mater and to see
the improvements in the college."
This year, some of the notable events in-
clude the reunions of the classes of '81 and
'86, and the Homecoming Dinner, honoring
the_classes of '51, '56, '61, '66, '71, and '76.
However, some things are out of his con-
trol, some things don't always go as plann-
ed and accidents can happen.
For Norman, staff and volunteers, this
weekend is lhe sum of a year's work.

ing, said Dearden.
The show's success has convinc-
ed advertisers to renew their agree-
ment for the standard radio-station
commitment of 13 weeks, Dearden
added.
"Now we're the most profitable
hour WHVW has on the radio,"
said Dearden.
After hearing Dearden and
Zolzer on WHVW, Poughkeepsie
Cablevision asked them to host a
sports talkshow called "Sport
Talk", according to Dearden.
"Sport Talk"
discusses the
week's events focusing on New
York City and Marist teams.
The show, after covering the
New York Mets and Yankees over
the summer, will now cover the
New York Jets and Giants.
They plan to cover Marist foot-
ball during the fall, Marist basket-
ball in the winter and Marist
baseball
in
the spring.
Dearden and Zolzer open the
television show by discussing· the
week's
events
and then open up the
phone lines for callers to oiler ttiefr
opinions and ask questions.
The majority of both programs
relies on listener and viewer par-
ticipation, according to Dearden
who wants to further his career as
a sports commentator on either
radio or television.
The income both men receive for
their work on both

comes
from commission earned from the
advertising they sell, said Dearden.
"This is more our labor of love
than anything else," Dearden said
about the shows.
In preparation for the weekly
shows Dearden said he reads two
to three newspapers a day and wat-
ches as much sports as possible.
Dearden said the biggest
"perk"
of the job comes from the press
credentials he and Zolzer receive
for being fully accredited members
of the press.
Donnelly rededication set
by
CAREY ALLABAND
Staff Writer
The rededication of Donnelly
Hall will take place this Saturday,
marking the formal completion of
its two-year renovation.
The rededication ceremony will
be held at ! 1 :00 a.m. in the Don-
nelly atrium. It will include com-
ments from Mark Sullivan,
ex-
ecutive vice president, who oversaw
a majority of the renovations of
Donnelly and Brother Paul Am-
brose, fms, a member of the Marist
Board of Trustees and noted as
president emeritus.
Richard LaPietra, a professor of
chemistry at Marist, and Andrew
Molly, chairman of the Division of
Science at Marist, will also be
speaking.LaPietra and Molloy are
both Marist graduates.
The ceremony will also include
special guest speaker Brother Ed-
ward Michael, fms. Michael was
the director of the original building
project at Marist under the direc-
tion of Brother Nilus Vincent Don-
nelly, fms, for whom the building
was named. Michael was responsi-
ble for the work, food, recreation
and prayer of the builders. He cur-
rently runs the bookstore at Marist
High School.
A 10-foot wide by 4-foot deep
heritage display will be unveiled
after
the commentary. The display,
titled "Marist Brothers: Founders
and Builders," will be a permanent
display in Donnelly.
It will
highlight the Maris~ Brothers ar-
rival in Poughkeepsie and the start
of Marist College.
The purpose of the dedication,
according to the office of college
advancement, is to honor and
thank the Marist brothers who en-
visioned and built Donnelly from
1957-1962.
The ceremony is expected to
have a large turnout. Alumni Af-

Commitment to
Communications
As 720 students are testament to, communication arts is the
most popular major on campus, accounting for nearly 22 per-
cent of the entire undergraduate population.
Yet communications is not only the most popular major,
it
is also the most visible. Whether it be reading The Circle
every week, attending a Marist theatre production, listening
to the campus radio station or just having a class in the Lowell
Thomas building, no other academic discipline has so much
an effect on the day-to-day life of a student.
And now there is some discussion of restructuring the col-
lege's current academic divisions so that communications
would leave the Division of Arts and Letters and establish itself
as
a
separate department.
This sounds like a good idea.
Yet, as any communications major can tell you, without
ap
increased c9mmitment
by
the academic vice president's of-
f
ice and the college, any change will be uneventful and
fruitless.
Because for communication .arts majors, without more
alterations, a revamping of the college's academic structure
will have little meaning. A new system with a separate com-
munications department could make conditions better for a
studenfs education, but it is not a causal agent for this
improvement.
Quite simply, you can lead a horse to Churchhill Downs,
but that doesn't mean it's going to win the Kentucky Derby.
If the college is going to be as serious as to restructure the
current system of disciplines, than it should also be prepared
to fully commit towards improving the disciplines that will
be standing alone.
For communications, this means drastically upgrading the
equipment that our future communications professionals are
trained on.
WMCR,
the campus radio station, is still housed
in Champagnat with antiquated equipment older than many
of the students working there. The television studios in LT,
contrary to public relations material put out by the college,
are hardly state-of-the-art.
While yes, Marist is first and foremost a liberal arts school,
and having any solid base of technology for education is an
advantage. Let's look at this issue like this: The equipment
may be state-of-the- art compared to WTZA, but not to many
other places Marist students will be sending their resumes to
come graduation. And while a liberal arts education is truly
priceless, a little hands-on experience with the technology that
is out in the marketplace never hurts.
A full commitment to the largest major on campus can be
implemented in other ways as well.
For example, is it really in the students' best interest to have
the assistant vice president of academic affairs as acting chair
for the Division of Arts and Letters? The division chairs are
supposed to have one single-minded interest at heart -
the
bettering of their division for the faculty and the students.
Can Linda Cool, who currently holds both titles, do this?
Not to take anything away from Cool. Her abilities and con-
tributions to Marist academics are impeccable and her taking
the job was more a matter of necessity than choice. But com-
munications majors want someone who has one academic in-
terest in mind - communications. When you're assistant vice
president of academic affairs, this is no easy task.

The recent arms reduction proposals an-

Despite these ambitious moves, some
critics mostly members of a certain political
party which is lost in space, have stated that
these proposals don't go far enough. And the
critics might be right, but these proposals
Thinking

Lines
aren't being motivatea oy any great love of
humanity. They are being motivated by the
political and military needs of each country,
and of each leader.
•
George
Bush's
proposal
includes
eliminating all ground-launched shon range
nuclear weapons, the withdrawal of all tac-
tical nuclear arms from ships, and the
cancellation of the mobile MX missile. He
has also taken our strategic bombers off
alert, which they had been on since the begin-
ning of the Cold War. He also mentioned his
desire to enter into negotiations that would
eliminate intercontinental ballistic missiles
with multiple warheads.
•
The last item is very important. The
ICBMs with multiple warheads give a great
strategic advantage to the side which laun-
ches first.
If
these weapons can be
eliminated, both sides will be able to feel a
little less insecure about their defensive
position.
Many of the systems that Bush will either
cut or reduce are older, out-dated systems
that are expensive to maintain. He doesn't
expect to save money by cutting these
weapons programs. He plans in investing the
money in newer, more advanced weapons
systems. You may not like it, but it actually
does make sense.
Bush realizes that he doesn't want to
be
portrayed as a militaristic or "war-hawk"
President. He needs to balance the record
sheet so he can come across as a strong leader
who wants peace (but isn't afraid to flex his
muscles if he has to). These proposals will
look really
-good·
during a campaign.
Mikhail Gorbachev is also politically
motivated to reduce arms, but not because
of any re-election campaign. With their
Eastern European empire gone, the Soviets
no longer need to have as many troops or
weapons. Gorby has proposed the elimina-
tion of all nuclear-artillery shells and nuclear
warheads from tactical missiles. 'Ht
'also
plans to move some nuclear warheads from
surface-to-air missiles to centralized bases.
Others, Gorby says, will be destroyed.
With the Soviet Union crumbling from
within, it is in the best interest of everyone
involved to reduce the number of nuclear
weapons. This way, many of the weapons to
be eliminated can be taken from the less
stable republics, reducing the number of
"nations" with miclear"weapons and reduc-
ing the odds of a nuclear war between two
rival republics.
Gorbachev also has to deal with the
troubling fact that his people are starving,
not to mention waiting in line for everything
and anything such as toilet paper. It would
be very difficult
to
explain to the Soviet peo-
ple why the army can have a shiny new tank,
but the people can't eat.
Gorby's hanging on by a thread as it is
now. He needs to put more money into his
crumbling economy. With these proposals,
he can help his country and gain worldwide
praise. Who could ask for anything more?
The arms reduction proposals will hl!lP
lessen the chance of a nuclear exchange bet-
ween the two super-powers. More arms cuts,
such as the elimination of multi-warhead
ICBMs, might occur, but total nuclear disar-
mament will not happen. The
sad
thing is
that the Soviets might be more willing to get
rid of all their nuclear weapons than are.
As long as we, the United States have
nuclear weapons, we will always be a super-
power and a major player in the world. If
we gave the nuclear weapons up, we would
feel less important and less powerful. And
that is a feeling that many Americans would
find impossible to live with.

Dear Mike,
Being a New York sportsfan and

Please Mike, don't ever write

about the Red Sox and the

Why you compare the success of
a team from Major League

Hockey League is beyond the grasp
of common sense, but let's
overlook that minor point.

For all you bike riders,
this is the right place
by
RICK DAWSON
Staff Writer
Whether one has a mountain
bike, touring bike, or just a plain
old bike, regardless of biking
capabilities, there are plenty of
rides and various terrains available
in the Mid-Hudson region.
Taking a look around, one will
realize
there
are
numerous
possibilities for biking, both within
a mile or two of campus or those
reachable only by car.
For those who do not have ac-
cess to a car and are confined to
bicycle rides within close proximi-
ty to Marist, don't worry.
Only one mile north on Route 9
lies the Hudson River Psychiatric
Center, an ideal location for
biking.
uTen miles of va~ious
road conditions allow the
rider to choose from hills,
flats, sharp banks and
steep declines. "
Ten miles of various road con-
ditions allow the rider to choose
from hills, flats, sharp banks and
steep declines.
There is virtually no traffic,
allowing a safe and undisturbed
ride. And the scenery and buildings
add to the riding enjoyment.
If a longer ride is desired, try go-
ing to the Vanderbilt Mansion,
north on Route
9
in Hyde Park.
The distance, about 14 miles
round trip from Marist, includes
slow declines, a hearty hill in Hyde
Park and some comforting flats.
Route 9 is a busy road, but the
shoulders allow for safe and easy
travel, and upon arrival, it will be
worth the time and effort.
For another semi-short trip, the
campuses of Vassar College or the
Culinary Institute of America both
allow for a safe and relaxing_ride.
Both institutions offer a variety
of easy-riding trails and off-road
mountain bike paths. A good sug-
gestion for a mountain biker would
be to take the railroad tracks north,
until reaching the Culinary Institute
and a variety of different paths.
For those who enjoy long jaunts
:which range into the 30-40 mile
range, heading north on Route 9
until Rhinebeck. This journey
through Hyde Park and Staatsburg
brings one along a scenic ride with
a variety of conditions.
Those who have access to a car,
can try the New Paltz, Woodstock
and the Catskill areas. Each offers
a scenic and exciting ride.
Mountain bikers may try the
Manawaska
Land Trust, the
Mohonk
Preserve,
or Lake
Awosting, which are all located in
the New Paltz area.
- Bikers who enjoy company can
call the Mid-Hudson Bicycle Club
at 229-5618 and should ask for Bill
or Erna Wilcox.
This club offers a variety of
riding levels for all age groups and
abilities.
The club also offers an annual
newsletter, "Saturday and Sunday
Rides", and a book listing several
rides.
For general information on
where to bike, one can pick up an
issue of "25 Bicycle Tours in the
Hudson Valley" by Howard Stone.
Or Contact Joe Hostetler, the bik-
ing club's president, at 462-3149,
call a local bicycle shop or just
merely pick up a Dutchess County
Map available at almost any store.
Keg bans become
national trend
by
HOLLY WOEHR
Staff Writer
Marist is keeping with the na-
tional trend of banning beer kegs
from college campuses, but not
with the trend of banning kegs
from parties at fraternity and
sorority houses.
The only functions where kegs
are allowed on Marist's campus are
21 Society and River Fest, said
Pefer Amato, associate dean of stu-
dent affairs.
Kegs are used at the 21 Society
because it is the easiest way
to
dispense the alcohol to the large
number of people in attendance,
according to John Pad~vani, assis-
tant director of housing and
residential life.
Using kegs at the 21 Society is
the most economical way to serve
the alcohol, said Deborah Waller,
co-chairperson of the 21 Society.
Waller said the 21 Society has the
right to have kegs because the en-
tire program is "very much under
control."
There is a policeman at the door
checking students' I.D.'s and Sister
Eileen Halloran, the faculty ad-
visor, is present in addition to some
of the housing staff.
There are two kegs operating at
once so there is rarely a line to get
beer, which helps keep things under
control, said Waller.
Padovani said the problem with
keg parties is often people cannot
balance the number of people pre-
sent with the amount of beer
available.
Padovani said he feels a keg par-
ty is a less social atmosphere than
a party with bottles or cans being
served due to the lines at the keg.
Marist wants the focus of on-
campus parties to be more on
socializing and meeting new peo-
ple, rather than on the drinking,
said Padovani.
The nature of the keg tends to
lead to out-of-control drinking,
which Marist wants to avoid, said
Padovani.
Padovani said Marist is trying to
be "risk management oriented" by
creating the safest environment
possible for 21-year-old students to
drink
on
campus.
The Marist disciplinary policy
for under-age students caught
drinking from bottles or cans on
campus is a written reprimand.
Students of any age who are
caught drinking from a keg or beer
ball are placed on disciplinary pro-
bation and are forced to pay a $150
fine.
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute,
Skidmore College and Dartmouth
College have banned kegs from
their campusses as well, for reasons
similar
to
Marist's, according to
the
Chronicle
for
Higher
Education.
According to an article in the
Chronicle for Higher Education, 34
of the 62 national fraternities have
adopted a policy which bans beer
kegs from the houses.
Law suits from parents of
students injured while intoxicated,
have prompted many schools to
take control of parties at fraterni-
ty and and sorority chapter houses,
said the Chronicle of Higher
Education.
Universities that have banned
kegs say that the kegs encourage
heavy drinking.
The excess beer remaining in the
keg towards the end of a party en-
courages people to drink more
because it is available, said Dur-
ward W. Owen, president of the
Fraternity Insurance Purchasing
Group.
Owen said students should bring
their own beer to parties so the
fraternities would not be held
responsible for any alcohol-related
accident.

fairs Assistant, Joan Wohlfahrt,
said there has been a great response
to the invitations that were sent
out. Former Marist President
Richard Foy and Brother Patrick
Magee, a life trustee at Marist,
along with approximately 15 other
Marist brothers from the early
classes of the college will be atten-
ding the ceremony according to
Wohlfahrt.
Donnelly Hall, along with five 5
other buildings still in use on cam-
pus, was constructed by the Marist
Brothers, a Roman Catholic con-
gregation of teachers originating in
France. In 1905, they purchased
their first piece of land that is now
included at Marist College.
According to Brother Paul Am-
brose, the brothers worked hard in
order for this college to make it.
Brother Ambrose is the founder
and first acting president of the col-
lege. It was his task to make Marist
a four-year college and secure the
college charter which he ac-
complished in 1946.
A handful of brothers were
taken out of class each week to
work on o the construction of the
building. They were still responsi-
ble for the classwork they missed,
Ambrose said.
The money for the project came
from the Marist Brothers' order
and from the parents of brothers
in training, Ambrose said. The only
time outside help was required was
during the construction of the gym,
he added.
The renovations of Donnelly
Hall cost approximately
$8
million
and took place in 3 phases over
a
two-year period, said Sullivan.

was originally supposed to be
out in Canterbury but during the
summer, I received information
that I was placed on campus," said
Averill, one of
JO
transfers on
campus.
"When I came to visit Marist in
the spring I was really impressed
with what I saw. It was the first
time I had visited New York and
the change of scenery was also in-
viting when I made my decision,"
said Averill, who is from Pem-
broke, Fla.
Colin Casey, who transferred
from Pennsylvania State Universi-
ty after one year, came to Marist
because he wasn't
sure
where he
wanted to be in school.
"It
was just a decision I made,"
said Casey, a social work major.
the Boston area.
"Coming from a big university
to Marist isn't to hard to adjust to,
I would think that doing the op-
posite would be tougher," said
Casey.
Casey and Averill both agreed
that sports have helped them in
meeting people. Averill is a
baseball player for the newly
established team.
"I got to know the guys on the
team and then I was able to meet
their friends and I am making my
own so the team has definitely
helped me," said Averill.
"Everyone seems friendly and
football has helped me in making
friends." said Casey.
Margie Moran, who transferred
to Marist in the fall of 199G said,
"I
wish that Marist could offer
more social events for the transfers,
because it is hard, when you are liv-
ing out in Canterbury, to meet peo-
ple."
Moran, who is from Wynant-
skill, N. Y., transferred in from
Hudson Valley Community Col-
lege. "I was used to the commuting
from Hudson so it wasn't to much
of a hassle but, as the semester
went on, it did become a hassle."
"My first friend here at Marist
was a transfer. We didn't know
anyone else so we stuck together,"
said Moran.
••If Marist was able to place
more transfers on campus I think
it would be better for the in-
dividuals," added Moran, who
lives on North Road now.

Taking part in the 42nd annual LeMoyne Invitational, bot teams cap-
tured top five finishes.
For the women, leading the way was Jen VonSuskil. The junior com-
pleted the 3.1 mile race in 20 minutes, 31 seconds -
giving her third
place overall. It was the fifth straight week VonSuskil finished in the
top four overall.
Women's Head Coach Phil Kelly was quick to praise VonSuskil.
"She's just a talented kid," he said. "She is coming into her own and
running real solid right now."
The Lady Red Foxes have finished in the top four as a team in all five
Invitationals this year.
Sarah Sheehan grabbed sixth place overall - just
10
seconds behind
VonSuskil.
"Sarah is coming on real nice," Kelly said. "She is a solid performer."
Kristy Ryan, who ran a time of 21:13, finished the race in sixteenth
place. Carla Angelini finished the race with a time of 22:36.
Dawn Doty, Noel Feehan, Aarti Kapoor and Theresa Lawless also com-
pleted the course for the Red Foxes.
The men's team, under the direction of Head Coach Pete Colaizzo,
finished eighth in a field of 15 teams.
The leading Marist runner was once again David Swift. The sophomore
finished the 5-mile course with a time of 29 minutes, nine seconds.
"This was an off-week for David and everyone else," Colaizzo said.
•
"He still ran a good time though, which is a tribute to his ability. He
is the cornerstone of our team."
Marty Feeney, the next Marist runner across the line, ran a time of
30: 16. Jason Vianese was 20 seconds behind Feeney and Chris Schmitz
finished just four seconds behind Vianese.
Chris O'Keefe, Brian Ordway and Matt Murphy also finished the race
for the Red Foxes.
Crew set for
challenge
The crew team will take part in
the second annual Challenge of the
Hudson regatta this Saturday in
Peekskill.
Sponsored by Scenic Hudson,
Inc., an environmental group in
Poughkeepsie, the regatta draws
participants from over 30 colleges
and 30 clubs around the world.
The men's varsity eight crew will
try and defend its New York State
men's eight title it won a year ago.
Last year, the crew completed the
three-mile course in 15 minutes,
50.83 seconds.
Marist was scheduled to par-
ticipate in two other races last year.
However, rough waters on the
Hudson River forced officials to
cancel the events.

Red Foxes win 3-0,
snap scoring drought
by
TED HOLMLUND
Staff Writer
The soccer team broke out of its scoring slump when it notched a 3-0
victory over St. Francis, Pennsylvania last Saturday.
Freshman forward Juan Favero, who hails from Buenos Aires, Argen-
tina, led the Marist attack with one goal and oile assist.
Juniors Bobby Angrilla and Chris Arrigali chipped in with a goal apiece
to secure the Red Fox victory. _
Favero said the team's play - and his own - are improving with each
game.
"We are passing the ball better now," he said. "And personally, I'm
getting used to the American way of play,
"We've lost games we shouldn't have lost," Favero said. "However,
we are a good team and we are getting better.''
Head Coach Howard Goldman said he is pleased with the first-year
Favero and expects him to get better.
"I've been waiting for him to adjust to the way we play," said
Goldman. "The transition from a foreign country is difficult but he is
starting to come around."
-
Converting more on scoring opportunities was the reason Marist beat
St. Francis, said Goldman.
_
"We're a good passing and controlteam," he said. "We're not a good
scoring team yet, but hopefully this is a step in the right direction."
Last Wednesday, Marist tied Iona College, 1-1.
Sophomore Brian Rose scored the lone goal for the Red Foxes.
"We had control of the game and should have won," said Goldman.
"We had 38 shots on goal and Iona only took 10. They tied us."
The Red Foxes' record is 3-4-1 oyerall, while posting a Northeast Con-
ference mark of 2-3.

Gridders notch third straight win,
can clinch ACFC title Saturday
by
MIKE O'FARRELL
Sports Editor
The football team will attempt to
clinch its second consecutive Atlan-
tic Collegiate Football Conference
championship Saturday when it
takes on St. Francis College this
Saturday in Loretto, Penn.
Marist improved its
ACFC mark
to
2-0
last Saturday when it hand-
ed St. John Fisher its fourth con-
secutive loss, 28-3.
A win over St. Francis would
give the Red Foxes a perfect league
record of 3-0 - earning them first
place and increasing their ACFC
win streak to nine games.
After Brooklyn College dropped
its football program, there are on-
ly four teams remaining in the
conference.
Marist Head Coach Rick Pardy
said his team will have its "hands
full" trying to clinch its second
title.
"They're a good team," Pardy
said. "It's going to be tough, but
we are going to go after them."
Pardy said his team is going to
attack St. Francis on both sides of
the ball.
"We are going to bring more _
pressure because I think we can
sack them," he said. "Offensive-.
ly, I think we can continue to run
the ball effectively."
Last Saturday, the Red Foxes
dominated St. John Fisher on both
sides of the ball.
Defensively, Marist held the Car-
dinals to just
17
yards of total
offensive.
The Marist defense also held St.
John Fisher offense to minus 19
yards rushing -
on 32 attempts.
"We did great things defensive-
ly," Pardy said. "Our front nine
played an incredible game in shut-
ting down the run. The only reason
I don't mention the safeties is
because they had to defend against
the pass."
Leading the defensive charge for
Marist was Chris Pratti. The defen-
sive end tallied nine tackles - two
for a loss -
and three sacks.
For his efforts, the senior was
named the ECAC Metro New
York/New Jersey Division III
player of the week. He was also
named the ACFC defensive player
of the week.
"Chris had a game and a half,"
said Pardy. "The awards are a
great honor to him. He has had a
great year."
Joe McGann, Pratti's linemate,
also notched nine tackles, one sack
and a fumble recovery. Linebacker
Joe Riccardi also had nine tackles.
Sophomore
defensive back
Bryan Oles picked off an errant St.
John Fisher pass and returned it 12
yards for a touchdown.
Offensiv~ly, the Red Foxes gain-
ed 348 yards of:t_otal
offense-231
coming on the ground.
"We played under tough condi-
tions," said Pardy, referring to the
rain storm throughout the game. "I
think our production would have
been even better in the second half
had the field been dry."
The ground attack was fueled by
three runners with more than
10
attempts.
Sophomore
tailback
Don
• D' Aiuto gained 86 yards on 16 car-
, ries while scoring two touchdowns.
Freshman Kyle Carraro gained
40 yards on 11 carries while
sophomore Julian Wyse tallied 47
yards on 14 carries scoring . one
touchdown.
Chuck Mullaly, returning from
an injury, also gained 48 yards on
six attempts.
The Red Foxes did all ·the
damage they needed in the second
quarter.
Wyse got things started by tak-
ing a pitch from quarterback Brian
McCourt and scampering 29 yards
for a touchdown.
Later in the quarter, a Cardinal
fumble was recovered by Jason
DiTullio -
setting up the next
Marist strike.
Three plays later, D' Aiuto
rambled 25 yards for his first of
two touchdowns on the day.
His second touchdown came just
before halftime. McCourt dropped
back and lateralled the ball to
flanker Dan DelPrete who pulled
up and connected with Dan Phelan
on a 50-yard completion to set up
D' Aiuto's one-yard plunge.
Oles' interception return came in
the fourth quarter. Kicker Matt
Lynch put the Red Foxes on the
board in the first quarter with a
29-yard field goal.
Pardy said his team still has yet
to "click."
"We are getting real close," he
said. "We are getting better every
day but we are not all the way yet."
Softball team
drops_ three
in fall finale
byJ.W.
STEWART
Staff Writer
The women's softball team
finished its innaugural fall season
losing to three different teams last
Saturday in the day-long East
Stroudsburg
Tournament
in
Pennsylvania.
Marist began the day against the
Long Island Lady Blackbirds. The
Red Foxes had the game tied at 3-3
after four innings before surrender-
ing two runs in the fifth and sixth
innings en route to its 7-4 opening
round loss.
Starter Kristen Wallace worked
all seven innings and took the
mound loss while Maria Dryer
smacked an RBI double to account
for one of the Red Foxes' early
runs.
On its way to scoring seven earn-
ed runs, Long Island belted the ball
all day, something Marist had trou-
ble accomplishing, according to
Head Coach Tom Chiavelli.
"We just didn't hit the ball well
enough," he said. "We didn't
strike out, but we hit a lot of pop-
ups."
The most disappointing loss of
the day came in game two, said
Chiavelli.
Leading East Stroudsburg 4-3 in
the seventh inning, Marist let up a
two-out, two-run single to Sue
Bullick that won the game for the
host team.
"It
ate my heart out," Chiavelli
said.
Tricia Southworth went the
distance and took the hard-luck
loss as Marist rapped out six hits
at the plate - its biggest offensive
display of the day.
A three-team, three-game sweep
was complete after Misercordia
College knocked off the Marist
women by a score of 6-2.
Both Wallace and Soutworth
saw action in this game as Miser-
cordia pounded out 12 hits to just
one for Marist. The lone single
.came off the bat of Patty
Ackerman.
The two runs Marist could
muster were unearned as Terri
Bambakidou reached on an error
and scored on a groundout.
Kathy Hull walked and eventual-
ly scored on an error by Misercor-
dia's shortstop.
"I
really wanted that last game,"
said Chiavelli. "You can't fault

Bill Gullickson of the Tigers and
