MARIST COLLEGE, POUGHKEEPSIE,

Big crowd turns out
for Ferraro speech
by
JOY WILLIAMS
Staff Writer
The best way to change government is for ordinary people to get in-
volved, said Geraldine A. Ferraro, candidate for the U.S. Senate represen-
tative from New York State, during her speech held in the. Theater to
more than 300 people in the Marist community Monday afternoon.
"When you make your voice heard, when you register to vote, when
you go to the polls, you make sure other people won't make the deci-
sions that run your life," said Ferraro.
Ferraro told students to try and shape the world through political ac-
tivism. She encouraged students to think about the type of future they
would like to have and then stand up to the government to get it.
Ferraro, who said her concern for the financial well-being of the mid-
dle class prompted her to campaign for the Senate seat, also spoke about
ways to provide relief for the "regular people."
She introduced two ways to cut taxes for the middle class -
by in-
creasing standard redemption and by reducing social security payroll
contribution.
She talked of a national health care service and increasing the federal
budget for education.
"Something is terribly wrong when families who have worked hard
to save cannot afford to send their children to college," said Ferraro.
She stressed that today's students have it much harder than the students
of her generation.
The high-paying jobs that were once guaranteed by a college degree,
now require a master's or ph.d, said Ferraro.
Focusing on the results of elections held last week, Ferraro said that
perhaps politicians in Washington are finally paying attention to the
people.
"We really do get good government when the people in Washington
listen to what we've been saying all along," said Ferraro.

THE CIRCLE, NOVEMBER 14,
1991
Best-selling author
talks about right to die
by
JULIE MARTIN
Associate Editor
"Death is something we walk
away from," said Andrew H.
Malcolm in his lecture, "When to
Say When: The Personal Side to
the Right to Die," last Thursday in
the Lowell Thomas Communica-
tions Center.
Malcolm, a New York Times
columnist, made the point in his
speech of saying: "We should tell
some jokes and laugh about our
problems. We might as well accept
death and have a good time the rest
of the time."
Malcolm is also the author of the
best-selling book, "Someday," in
in which he discusses euthanasia
and how
jt
relates to the difficulty
he had seeing his mother on life
support and how he came to terms
with her death.
"The book is a personal story
about my life," said Malcolm.
"It's about how I grew up to be a
man who absorbed an entire system
of values from my parents and who
developed a sort of facade to cover
fears about death."
Malcolm described what it was
like to see his mother attached to
machines that were the only things
keeping her alive.
"I kept saying to myself, 'Was
this the woman who had shaped
my life for so long?" Malcolm
said. "I was disgusted with her for
being like this. Is this me in 30
years? I was secretly terrified."
It was then that Malcolm said he
wondered if life support was equip-
ment that was prolonging life or
prolonging death?
Malcolm said he has talked to
many hospital spokespersons and
doctors during his research on
health care and he was startled at
what he found out.
"I
talked
to a hospital
spokesman and asked to talk to a
man who wanted to die," said
Malcolm. "He asked me 'which
one?"'
"I
talked to doctors who were
shaken by patients who were more
afraid about what doctors would
do to them rather than what the
il-
lness would do," Malcolm said.
"That is because we have gotten so
good at suspending the inevitable."
Malcolm said that life support,
in addition to being a "painful
burden", can cause expensive bills.
"I
know of one infant who the
doctors were able to keep alive for
14 months," said Malcolm. "There
was a $1.2 million bill which the in-
surance company picked up. The
parents decided to never have
another child because of this."
There are 10,000 people in per-
manent vegetated states in the
country today and 7(1.of all deaths
are negotiated or planned, said
Malcolm.
Malcolm said that dealing with
the topic of medicine lead him to
the "road of self-discovery".
Malcolm also spoke about the
denial of death in the North
American people.

In his closing, Malcolm praised

event she or he is unable to make

"When the time comes, I don't
want my parents to be kept alive by
artificial means," said Kristin
Anderson, a senior business major
from Oxford, Conn. "Of course
I'd want them to live, but not like
that."
•
Anderson, with a standing-
room-only crowd of people from
both the Poughkeepsie and Maris!
communities, reacted to the An-
drew H. Malcolm lecture, "When
to Say When: The personal side of
the
right to die."
Malcolm, a New York Times
journalist and author of the book,
spoke about his own mother's
death, as well as the need for
families to discuss the issue of
euthanasia.
Makolm said that people should
have a living ,viii and a health pro-
xy so relatives and doctors will
know the wishes of a dying patient.
"l think having a living will is a
pretty pessimistic outlook on life,"
said
Dan DelPrete, a senior com-
munications arts major from

Laurence Sullivan, professor of

the lecture clearly exposed to the

try, we seem to be surrounded by
significant denial of birth and
death issues."
Increase in theft on campus;
wallets and purses targeted

by
MARY-CAY PROVOST
Staff Writer
Since September there have been
12 incidents
where
•
either a
women's wallet or purse has been
stolen, according to J.F. Leary,
director of safety and security.
There have been four incidents
in Fontaine, two each in Lowell
Thomas, Dyson and the library,
one in Donnelly and one at Marist
East, Leary said.
"Each time who ever it is, is on-
ly taking the cash. The amounts
have been from $10 to $100," said
Leary, who indicated that seven of
the 12 robberies occurred during
class changes.
Leary said he believes this may
indicate that the suspect is a
student.
Four of the missing 12 wallets
have been recovered with only the
cash missing, according to Leary.
"We have had three recovered
from the streets of Poughkeepsie
and one was recovered in the rest
room of Fontaine," said Leary,
who noted that the victims are
mostly faculty members.

than a valid drivers' license or

She said many people who are

The Marist-University of Kiev exchange,

Casimir Norkeliunas, Marist professor of

among the more militant college students.

Union taking Russian language courses when
the State Department issued warnings against
U.S. travel

the U.S.S.R. in late August,
decided to take a leave of absence from

THE CIRCLE, NOVEMBER 14,
1991
Students strive to donate blood,
Students deal with death
Fraternity's drive draws support
by
ANASTASIA B. CUSTER
Staff Writer
Bob Sullivan's initial motive to
donate blood had to do with his
cousin - who was dying of cancer.
"I started giving blood through
the Army, about a year and a half
ago when my cousin was dying of
cancer. We had to give blood. My
cousin died and then l realized that
donating blood was important,"
said Bob Sullivan, a junior from
Smithtown, N.Y.
His cousin died a little over a
year ago, yet he still continues to
give blood on a regular basis, by
donating blood between two and
three times a year or whenever he
sees a blood drive.
Sigma Phi Epsilon is sponsoring
a blood drive on November 21,
1991 in the Fireside Lounge from
12 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
"I
sign up every year because my
blood type is O negative, which
means I can give blood to
everybody," said Maria Martinez,
a
senior from Paterson, N
.J.
Martinez said that donating
blood does not take a lot of time
and she recommends that everyone
sign up.
"I would tell my friends, if you
have time you might be saving
somebody's life. A half hour out
of your day is not a lot of time
when you could be saving a life,"
said Martinez.
Although people may relate the
reasons why they donate blood to
a certain family member or believe
it's their duty, the reasons are the
same; they all stress that an in-
dividual donate blood in order to
save a life.
"1

needed surgery and they needed
blood - where is that blood com-
ing from? You never know when
someone you know will need it. l
had surgery a couple of years ago
and
I
lost a lot of blood.
I
realized
just how valuable it is, said Ray
Roy, a senior from Latham, N.Y.
Roy also said that donating
blood is not painful and its a
healthy thing to do.
Although last year's blood drive
sponsored by Sigma Phi Epsilon
harvested 115 pints of blood, their
goal this year is 130, said Matt
McQueeney, a junior and member
of Sigma Phi Epsilon from Center-
port, N.Y.
Students who wish to donate
blood are being asked to bring two
forms of identification and eat a
meal beforehand -
refreshments
will be served.
The process of donating blood is
not a fun or exciting process;
however, students and others who
donate blood dismiss their fears for
the possibility that their brief mo-
ment of distress will help another •
person in need.
"The first time I gave blood l
was scared to death," said Andrea
Preziotti, junior class president,
from Brooklyn, N.Y.
Although Preziotti's first ex-
perience donating blood was not a
treasurable one, her second and
third time improved greatly.
"The needle got lost or moved
in my vein temporarily, but the se-
cond time I went with my friend
Doug and everything went well,"
said Preziotti.
Preziotti said a lot of people
hesitate to give blood because of
the fear of AIDS however, giving
blood will not give you AIDS.
After hearing about all the car
accidents and all the people who
desperately need blood, Preziotti
said she felt she had a duty.
Changes ahead in the student gov't
as activities fee may be raised
by
JOSEPH PANETTIERI
Staff Writer
The Council of Student Leaders
may alter the student government
constitution and raise the student
activity fee, now $50.00, said Matt
Thomson, student-body president.
"Officers in the Resident Stu-
denCCouncil, Commuter Union,
Student Academic Committee and
College Union Board tend to
adhere to
the
rules set by each
group," said Thomson. "This
creates a need for one well- defin-
ed constitution which would allow
each group to abide by the same
rules and presidents."
CSL is another name for student
government and is composed of of-
ficers, four with voting power, who
listen and vote on various college
issues.
The current constitution was
created in January of 1985 under
the Suzanne Ryan administration,
according to a CSL newsletter.
The four previously mentioned·
groups existed at Marist prior. to
both CSL's and the constitution's
establishment.
The document was molded
around these groups and, as a
result, is now causing some pro-
blems in student government, said
Thomson.
As the constitution stands now,
only the leaders of the fore- men-
tioned groups are given the power
to vote,
according . to the
newsletter.
Thomson said that while the
leaders of the groups are busy ser-
ving their own offices, there is a
need for more voters on varying
issues.
"I foresee about eight additional
voters elected to the CSL," said
Thomson. "While the present
voters most likely will maintain
their voting status, the newly
created positions would serve only
the CSL."
•
These eight new voices would
have more free time to study issues
as they would not have the addi-
tional separate office obligations
that the original four voters have,
said Thomson.
An issue presently being discuss-
ed is the raising of the student ac-
tivity fee, said Thomson.
"It is no secret that money for
student clubs and activities is at a
shortage," said Thomson. "This
administration is looking into
where the money is spent, as well
as researching other _ possible
sources,lof money."~ /
Before the student government
makes a movement to raise the ac-
tivity fee, it would search for alum-
ni donations and listen to input
from
student
voices,
said
Thomson.
One major cost that cuts into the
student activity-fee pool is the
McCann Center, and the student
government is doing research to see
if student's money is wasted in this
area, said Thomson.
In its first year, the McCann
Center took $61,000 out of the stu-
dent activity-fee pool. While these
costs were supposed to be phased
out, a certain percentage of the ac-
tivity fees still goes to the McCann
Center, said Thomson.
Adjunct prof finishes first novel;
soon to start on the second one
by
VINCENT
J.
ZURLO
Staff Writer
Jacquelyn Holt Park can't wait
to write her second novel.
However, these days she is too
busy promoting her first one.
This novel, "A Stone Gone
Mad," was published by Random
House last month after Park spent
IO years working on it. Hardly giv-
ing her a moment to rest, the
publishing company sent her on a
12-city promotional book-tour.
After traveling about 7,000 miles
in three weeks, Park returned to
her home in New Milford, Conn.,
'on ·Oct. 24 to catch her breath
before a hectic schedule of speak-
ing engagements, book readings,
book signings and newspaper
interviews.
Park's manuscript was first read
and submitted to Random House
by Pulitzer prize-winning author
William Styron.
"As a rule, first novels can easi-
ly be lost in the heap - the writer
has to do a lot of legwork," said
Park. "You have to mother the
novel. Then, at some point, you
have to let go."
Although she said she is pleased
with all the attention her book has
received, she is anxious to begin her
next one.
"Writing is my best friend, in a
sense," said Park. "l miss it -
I
want to get back to it."
Having an agent, a publisher and
a new novel in the bookstores has
not changed Park, the self-
proclaimed realist.
"No one really cares about your
book except for you," she said.
"The world is not waiting for your
novel."
"Can I do it again?" Park said,
restating the question before
answering. "The only way I'll
know is to try -
and I intend to
try."
"A Stone Gone Mad" is about
the lifetime struggle of Emily
Stolle, a woman who searches for
her sexual identity
through
homosexual and heterosexual rela-
tionships while under society's
pressure
to
conform to its rules of
normal behavior.
Park began writing the book
after being inspired by a story she
read in the Los Angeles Times. She
wrote it and rewrote it over the
years, sacrificing much of her free
time, despite the loss of friendships
along the way.
"A true artist has to be driven,"
she said. "I didn't have a choice -
I had to write it."
Stubborn and determined, Park
wrote from IO to 12 hours a day to
complete her novel.
"it was like being in the 10th
month of pregnancy," she said.
Park teaches creative writing at
the Federal Corrections Institution
in
Danbury, Conn., through the
special academic program at
Marist.
She is also an adjunct professor
at Western Connecticut State
University where she has taught for
five years, although she is on leave
this semester because of the release
of her book.
Park plans to start her second
novel in January - if she can wait
that long.

Grief is something many people
must deal with at least once in their
lives, including Marist students, but
they do not always know where to
turn for help.
Aside from turning to friends or
locking themselves in a room,
students can go to the Counseling
Center in the Byrne House where
they can talk to counselors or
members of campus ministry.
Although many students may
not be aware that there is a place
to go when they are experiencing
grief, a great number of people do
go to the Byrne House for help.
Counselor Barbara Fries said, "I
didn't expect grieving to be a
popular issue but the first cases I
had here were about grief."
Fries said students come to
discuss grief due to the loss of
parents, siblings, close friends and
even the loss of relationships.
There have been cases where
students come to talk about the
deaths of people who either work-
ed at Marist or who have attended
Marist.
Depending upon a· student's
background,-they can either talk to
counselors,
priests
or even
members of campus ministry to
help them deal with theirlosses.
Every semester Marist offers a
number of activities on grief. Last
fall, Marist presented a multimedia
series on loss and grief.
The program included a key note
speaker who discussed death and
dying from a sociological perspec-
tive, a prayer service to remember
the deceased students of the college
and five film and discussion ses-
sions which dealt with various
forms of grief.
There haven't been enough peo-
ple or interest this semester to start
any kind of program, but Fries
hopes to get a program organized
for the spring semester. She said
she would also like to get a group
of people together whose primary
job would be to help others deal
with grief.
Students can go to the Byrne
House for individual counseling
throughout the week. Appoint-
ments should be made at least one
and a half weeks in advance.
If students want to talk to so-
meone immediately, walk in hours
are from
9
a.m. to
10

Flushed toilets
send $2;400
down the drai
By
JULIE MARTIN
Associate Editor
Toilet overflows twice have
.
forced the women's bathroom
in Donnelly Hall to close so far
this semester resulting in $2,400
worth of repairs, according to
the Physical Plant office.
Syde Wattoff, office manager
at physical plant, said the toilets
overflowed twice in the month
of October because women were
flushing hosiery down them.
"It
was disgusting," Wattoff
said .. "We had raw sewage
overflow downstairs the first
time and the second time it went
into the visitors' parking lot."
Wattoff said
ii
was also a
very expensive to repair the
damage.
"We had Roto Rooter come
to fix it," Wattoffsaid.
"It
cost
us $1200 each time."
Wattoff said that when so-
meone flushes something like
hosiery down the toilet, nothing
can get past it and everything
gets backed up.
It was also a very inconve-
nient situation because on the
days that the bathroom was be-
ing repaired, all the water was
shut off in Donnelly, she added.
Wattoff said she just wanted
to warn women who use that
bathroom to make sure that a
problem like this does not arise
again.
"They probably just don't
realize what they're doing,"
1
Wattoff said. "Maybe when
they see this, the will."

Students to prepare dinner for hungry
by
KRISTA RAAB
Staff Writer
Students will have an opportuni-
ty to provide a Thanksgiving din-
ner for homeless and hungry peo-
ple both worldwide and in the Dut-
chess County area during Hunger
Week,
Nov. 18-25.
Campus ministry, in conjunction
with residential life, Sigma Phi Ep-
silon, the junior class and Alpha
Kappa Psi will be in charge of col-
lecting food baskets and donations
for the North Side. Community
Center in Poughkeepsie.
All
collections and donations will
conclude on Nov. 25, in the
Fireside Lounge, between 3:30
p.m. a~d 4:30 p.m., followed by an
lnte~fa1th Thanksgiving Prayer
Service.
According
to Sister Eileen
Halloran,
director of campus
ministry, the prayer service will give
people a chance to see the amount
of food the shelter will receive from
the Marist community.
"We'll load up the vans and cars
before the prayer service so people
can see firsthand the generosity for
the upcoming holiday," Halloran
said.
The North Side Community
Center will receive the food baskets
and collections,
as well as
distributing extra items to other

Students choose not to vote
by
NOELLE BELOIN
Staff Writer
According to some students,
voting when you're away from
home is just too much of a hassle.
With
·the
local elections done,
students here said they didn't take
time out of their schedules to par-
ticipate in them.
For the most part, the students
that are actually registered to vote
don't seem to be much different
from the students who arc not
registered at all.
"l just didn't have the time to
register,"
said one student.
"Maybe next summer I'll take the
time but right now it's not a priori-
ty."
One junior said she never
registered because she doesn't
know where
to
go to register to
vote.
. The students that are registered
said just find the whole process of
an absentee ballot to much of a
nuisance to go through .
"l was going to vote in the
presidental elections my freshman
year but I forgot to send the ballot
in," said Cathy Casey, a criminal
justice major from Northport,
N. Y. "It's all kind of a hassle and
,
I don't think they tell you enough
about candidates in local elec-
tions."
"I forgot about the ballot but l
wouldv'e voted," said Ray Con-
nors, an english major. "That's
democracy at work."
Some students said they think
the reason other students don't
vote is laziness.
"Maybe I'm passing the buck
and making excuses for pure
laziness," said Sandy Martin, a
psychology major from Hun-
tington, Conn. "I still think politi-
cians could make it easier and more
acessible for students away at
school."
"Why should I have to worrv
about the local elections?" said on~
sophomore. "I'm not at home so
whoever wins won't affect me."
Halloran.
"The center is working with
other agencies so there is no
duplication and other organiza-
tions can benefit; we hope this year
at least 50 different families can be
fed," Halloran said.
Sister Eileen credits the efforts of
students, faculty and staff for the
success or past Hunger Weeks.
Student affairs, college advance-
ment and the McCann Center are
some offices that have put together
food baskets in past years, accor-
ding to Halloran.
"Individuals like Tom O'Meara
and Connie McCaffrey
from
housekeeping collect money from
members of the faculty and staff,
then Seiler's matches whatever they
collect," Halloran said.
In addition to the local dona-
tions, students who are on the meal
plan can give up a meal and Seiler's
will donate money for each partici-
pant to Oxfam America.
Oxfam America is an interna-
tional organization that provides
funding research, relief and educa-
tion about nutrition around the
world. •
Students who arc not on the
meal plan can make monetary con-
tributions to Oxfam America, or
collect assorted can goods or dry
foods for the local charities, said
Halloran.

1,000 miles down the stream

The Marist crew team will strive
to meet its I ,000-mile goal at the
ninth annual American Cancer
Society/Marist College row-a- thon
at the Poughkeepsie Galleria Mall
on Nov. 15
-
17.
In the beginning of September,
crew members began collecting
pledges for each mile that they row
from the community in front of
various stores throughout Dutchess
County.
The
team
will
row
on
ergometers,
simulated
rowing
machines, from the opening to the
closing hours of the mall this
weekend.
The ergometers, or "ergs," will
give the crew members a final tally
of the miles they row.
According to crew coach Larry
Davls, the team usually rows bet-
V
ween 930 and 960 miles, depending
The most the team has rowed in
previous years is 980 miles when the
mall was open for extended hours
for the holiday season.
Davis said the team expects to
earn between $3,500 and $4,000 in
donations - the most it has earn-
ed in past years is $7,000.
The team will split the profits
from the row-a-thon equally with
the American Cancer Society.
There are enough members or

the crew team that no one will have
to row an overwhelmingly number
or miles, said Davis.
The fall crew-season is rapidly
coming to a close, and the team is
hoping to end it successfully at the
row-a-thon, said senior Katie Mor-
rison, co-captain of the women's
varsity team.
Davis said that the row-a-thon is
a good way to get the students in-
volved in the community and to
generate good will.

A step back
Closing the Marist Preschool takes
the college into _the 90s -
the 1890s
The Marist Preschool has 36 days left.
.
It
is
then, on Dec. 20, that faculty, staff and administra-
tion will have to find another answer to the question: Who
is going to take care of my children while I work?
The preschool, you see, does not meet the safety regula-
tions that the Town of Poughkeepsie requires daycare
centers to meet. And upgrading the facility, housed in
a trailer near the Sheahan parking lot, would cost the col-
lege too much -
or so says the college.
The question, however, is: How much is too much?
The issue of daycare is one that has been neglected on
the national level for the past 12 years. It is only recently
that many companies, have taken
it
upon themselves to
~-
provide their employees with daycare facilities.
Marist, however, by closing the preschool and, more
importantly, by not providing an alternative means of
daycare, has executed a social regression.
Yes, as Mark Sullivan says, the costs to upgrade the
preschool -
which needs a new heating system, fire
alarms and sprinkler systems -would be "exorbitant;"
but
this is
not a problem that can be solely answered by
using a cost/benefit analysis - we're dealing with peo-
ple's families here.
Having a means for teachers, staff and administrators
to allow for the care of their young children is not only
a way to keep current employees happy, it's an incentive
to attract other ·quality personnel to the college.
It's not a question of whether the college can afford
to provide daycare on campus for its employees, it's a
question of whether the college can afford _not to.
And while to the college's credit, it is continuing to search
for some sort of feasible replacement for the Marist
Preschool, it's still not enough.
One of the main problems with this situation can be
traced to the simple fact that Marist is still a "tuition-
driven'' institution.
The college, because it is relatively young, does not have
a wide range of alumni from which to solicit donations.
The greatest number of Marist alumni are at an age where
they are still worried about mortgages and their own
children's tuition -
not supporting their alma mater.
As a result, Marist has to rely heavily on the tuition
students pay to finance any capital ventures such as
upgrading the preschool or building a new one.
But attempting to convince a parent of this who's seen
the way this campus has been remarkably transformed
with the addition of the Dyson Center and renovation
of Donnelly would probably prove to be quite difficult.
Because simply put, in 1991, telling parents that daycare
is too expensive -
the preschool must be closed and
there's no other alternative -
just doesn't cut it.

The choice in Louisiana:
The criminal or. the racist?
by
MARK MARBLE
Down in the Louisiana Bayou, an in-
teresting little political struggle is taking
place. Of course, I'm referring to the much
publicized race for governor. In one comer,
we have David."Don't
call
me Adolr' Duke,
a Republican State representative And in the
opposing corner, we have former governor
Thinking
Between
The
Lines
in the deep south, . old beliefs die hard, so
many citizens might be attracted to a white
supremacist candidate. The economy of
Louisiana is desperate and scared, and they
are willing to listen to anyone who has the
answers or at least claims to have the
answers.
Duke's chance of winning this election is
greater than normal because of his opponent.
Mr. Edwards is a reputed gambler and has
twic.e been tried on • federal corruption
charges. He wasn't convicted, .but that's still
a lot of poliiicaJ baggiigc
to
cafry
around.
This will probably come down to one of
those famous "lesser of two evil" decisions
by the voters. And it's anybody's guess who
will be considered the lesser evil.
Another factor that might help Duke is
that'many people who have been polled, and
have said they won't vote for Duke, might
have actually just not wanted to admit that
===-------
they would vote for him.
Edwin "I am a crook" Edwards. A truly
great choice
o(
candidates. Only in America
(my apologies to Don King).
David Duke's claim to fame has nothing
to do with his performance as a Louisiana
State Representative. He is best known as the
former Grand Wizard of the Klu Klux Klan.
He also seems to be remembered for mak-
ing some openly racist statements (Nab.
Couldn't be. Not the Dukester), and he was
a big fan of Adolf Hitler. That's one hell of
a track record.
Mr. Duke claims to have seen the light
(must be from all those burning crosses) and
to haye changed his racist attitudes. He is
running on a very conservative platform. He
wants welfare reform and stands against the
quota system that, he feels, has been a result
of affirmative action programs.
Duke states that he wants equal rights for
everyone. He comes across looking like a
relatively normal guy, not as a cross-burning
racist. If it wasn't for his background, Duke
would probably be a lock to
win
this election.
Louisiana has always been a backwards
kind of state to begin with. Like many states
These "closet" racists could help Duke's
chances. Also, since everyone seems anti-
government and anti-incumbent these days,
the fact that President Bush publicly en- •
dorses Edwards may actually help Duke.
Some voters may see this election as a way
of sending a message to Washington.
One dangerous aspect of this heated
political contest is the belief, expressed by
thankfully only a few, that David Duke
shouldn't be "allowed" to run for governor
of Louisiana. Whether Mr. Duke has chang-
ed his views or not (probably not), he has
as much right to run for office as any other
candidate. Anyone can run. Not anyone can
win.
Only the people of Louisiana can decide
if David Duke is worthy of being governor.
So on Nov.16, the choice will be either a
crook or a ·guy who used to like wearing
sheets in public. In this case, I'd probably
vote for the crook. After all, we vote for
crooks all the time anyway, no matter who
we vote for. At least Edwards would fit right
in.

Students: Stay
aware of AIDS.
by
JOSEPH PANETTIERI
Something had to be written, but
what? What angle does a writer
take when addressing Earvin
Johnson
.
and
his
fateful
announcement?
The easy target would be Marist
College and its ongoing stance
against selling condoms on cam-
pus. No, that letter has been writ-
ten a million times before. As long
as the moral minority known as the
Marist Brothers remain uninform-
ed and deny that students are
"cohabiting," students will step in-
to the rain without their campus-
purchased rubbers.
The real point of this letter is to
challenge students to stay inform-
ed and aware of Acquired Im-
munodificiency Syndrome.
America became first transfixed
and then bored with Stormin' Nor-
man's war, Jimmy Connors' bat-
tle against father time, and Judge
Thomas' Coke can over the last

in a legal court. Johnson's battle,
however, will most likely be a
lengthy losing one.

He has

AIDS yet - it could be years until
that occurs. Do not tire of his
words or his smile. He has become
a spokesperson and is prepared to
become a martyr for the disease -
we should be prepared to listen.
Search the headlines in a few
weeks. Unless our self-named
Education President, Corporate
America and the National Basket-
ball Association follow Johnson's
lead, his efforts will move farther
and farther from the front page.
Remember the cries to bring our
troops home? The ribbons are
down, the parades are over and
thousands remain in the Middle
East. We must start holding the
media accountable for the stories
it began.
Johnson held our interest for a
decade on the court. In one mov-
ing moment, he clutched my atten-

Not just another sports hero
by
JUSTIN SEREMET
In a span of 30 seconds, my life
changed forever. At around 4:30
p.m. on Nov. 7th, I got a phone call
from my mother. "I've got some
bad news for you," she said
in
a
grave voice. "Magic Johnson is an-
nouncing his retirement. He has the
HIV virus."
My stomach dropped and I near-
ly dropped the phone. Was this
some kind of sick, cruel joke?
Magic Johnson was my hero since
age 9. This couldn't be true. Two
minutes later, the newscasters on
TV were talking about it. I buried
my face in my hands and cried. I
just let all of my emotions out.
Earvin "Magic" Johnson, now
former guard for the Los Angeles
Lakers, announced his immediate
retirement from basketball because
he had contracted the HIV virus,
the first stage of AIDS. As of this
point in time, AIDS has no cure.If
it had happened to any ordinary
person, I probably wouldn't have
cared. But it wasn't. This was
Magic.
You remember Magic. He led
the Lakers to five world champion-
ships in the 80's, winning three
Most Valuable Player awards in the
process. He also appeared in 12 all-
star games, is the all time leader of
assists in the NBA with 9,921, and
is arguably the greatest player of all
time.
After donating
millions of
dollars to charities and becoming
the role model for youths of
America, he was scheduled to lead
Team USA in the 1992 Olympics in
Barcelona. Now, these are but
memories; Magic faces his toughest
challenge ever-not against the
Celtics, the Pistons, and the Bulls,
against
AIDS.
After I had let all of my emo-
tions out, I thought this whole
thing could have a positive side to
it all. Maybe this will provide a
wake up call to the world that
something must be done about this
disease. Maybe it took the loss of
a tremendous athlete from the
sports world to tell people that
AIDS can happen to anyone. AIDS
has no face.
"It
can happen,"
Magic said. "Even to me, Magic
Johnson."
It's not all over for Magic. HIV
virus carriers can go ten to twenty
years without developing the symp-
toms of A.I.D.S .. Some never
develop it at all. But if someone of
Magic's stature promotes safe sex,
as he says he will, things might
change. Kevin Johnson of the
Phoenix Suns may have stated it
best. "God couldn't have chosen a
better person to wake up the
world."
I
still
cannot understand how
Magic could take it so well. Even
during the press conference, Magic
showed that charismatic smile that
gave the audience a positive
outlook for the future.
"I'm gonna be around for a
while. But if I die tomorrow I'll
die a happy man.
'Cause
I k'now
I'll have had the greatest life
anyone could ask for."
That's the way I have to look at it.
He's
still
alive and can really make
a difference in the world. He was
my hero throughout all of those
gruelling finals. Now, Magic
Johnson can be a hero in a whole
new light.

It is too bad that "Hudson
Heights" never made it off the
ground (or is it back on again?)
because I think Marist could real-
ly benefit from a show produced by
and for the students.
However, I have something dif-
ferent in mind than a soap opera.
I envision a show something like
PBS's McLaughlin Group (of
which The Sinatra Group is a
parody). A show where relevant
issues could be discussed in an open
forum,
leading
to a better
awareness of what issues shape our
world as 90's college students.
Yes, I envision "The Bertie's
Group," the show where a dif-
ferent student panel each week is
quizzed and asked their opinion on
such pertinent topics as:
What do you think of Jill
Eikenberry's new haircolor on
"L.A.
Law?"
Can you believe that (insert her
name here) is going out with him?
Why
are
·we
the only
ones laughing?
What do you think Brandon
sees
in
Emily Valentine?
Is the rumor about David Letter-
man wearing a toupee true?
How fake is your fake I.D.?
The host could be one of the
many bouncers at Bertie's who
want to know in addition to the in-
formation
provided on your
d.river's license, where your parents
met and what the price of a ham-
burger is at high tide. This ensures
truthful answers on the part of the
panel because of the bouncers'
well-known abilities to scare the life
out of any college student.
The show was going to be called
"The Study Group," but that was
pre-empted when all involved
decided to go to the diner instead.

All's fare, for cabbie crusin' Po'town streets
by
DOMINICK E. FONTANA
Staff Writer
The cab driver picked up a
young lady from Red Hook at 4:53
a.m., Friday, when she started to
get nervous about where her
boyfriend has been living after she
had a fight with him during the
week.
As the songs "Romantic" and
"Something To Talk About" play
in the background, she proceeds to
ask his opinion, from a "male
perspective," how he would react
to his girlfriend if she showed up
at his house at this early hour of the
morning.
Companionship and playing the
role of psychiatrist are just a few
of the tasks Chuck Godfreyd, 38,
acts out during his 12-hour shift
from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., except Sun-
days, for the City of Poughkeep-
sie cab service.
estimated time, according to God-
freyd, was four hours.
"We take a lot of abuse from the
passengers sometimes," Godfreyd
said speaking for his colleagues, as
six Marist students came out from
a local bar, Sidetracked, and
entered the van, known by it's
passengers from the sign below th,e
radio - "Welcome To The Zoo."
"I give the customers all the
respect they are due, because, in
turn, I do not want to be treated
like dirt," Godfreyd said. "The
majority of the cab drivers I know
care about their customers since
they provide for our income and
without it, we can't make a living."
The students were all bundled up
in their jackets, sweat pouring from
their faces as more students pile in-
side the van.
Godfreyd has been driving with
a class-four license for 16 years,
allowing him to drive a cab.
"We are actually another set of
eyes and ears for the police," God-
freyd said, as he drove cab #73,
navy-blue, 1983 Plymouth Custom
van, rattling up Washington Street
in response to a call. "If someone
is in danger, we have a three-way
radio to communicate to the
dispatcher so he can call the
police."
"Slide the door closed," one of
the students said, her teeth chatter-
ing from the cold. The sliding door
does not give until one of the male
. students, nearly ripping the handle
off, slams it shut, producing a loud
bang.
He recalls working at the desk a
year-and-a-half ago when there was
a call
to
the office that a man was
waving a gun. Godfreyd respond-
ed to the three-way c-band radio,
which broadcasts both dispatcher
and responding cab driver, and
called the police.
The dispatcher had called God-
freyd over the three-way radio last
Wednesday night to take one of the
cabs down to Newark airport and
pick up a Dutchess County resident
and drive back to our area -

"Where to everyone, Califorl)ia
or Florida?" Godfreyd said to his
cold and talkative passengers.
The students, who were occupied
in their own conversations, stopped
and gave their preferred locations
-
Champagnat and Benoit.
The conversations were not very
loud that night, but Godfreyd said
there have been times when the
passengers were drunk and started
banging on the ceiling inside the
van.
"The passengers have the right
to go a little crazy,'' Godfreyd said,
as the females in the van sang
"When A Man Loves A Woman"
and "Crazy." "I would tum up the

Homework in Barbados.
While the thought of sitting in
class in Barbados seems farfetch-
ed, dozens of Marist students spend
part of their Christmas break tak-
ing a class in Barbados.
Every January, John Scileppi,
professor of psychology, and ap-
proximately 18 students go to Bar-
bados to study the Psychology of
Interpersonal Communication.
After teaching this class on cam-
pus over 11 years ago, Scileppi said
he became discouraged by the
results.
The class which teaches active
listening skills, drawing out skills
and assertiveness was lacking the
right atmosphere where students
could practice what they were
learning.
. "Students weren't able to loosen
up," Scileppi said. "They simply
weren't confident enough to
try
out
the new skills they were learning on
campus.''
When it was taught on campus
the material was good and taught
well, but students weren't able to
open up the way the we wanted
them to, Scileppi said.
Christine Martorana, a senior
communications major from West
Islip, N.Y., who participated in the
course last year, agreed with
Scileppi.
• · "It
wouldn't have worked as
well in a classroom setting," Mar-
torana said. "People just aren't as
comfonable with each other."
A friend of Scileppi's suggested
he move the class off campus, and
at the same time, another friend
told him about a Yoga Center in
Barbados which dealt with educa-
tional groups, Scileppi said.
Thus, the tradition began.
This coming January 2-16,
Scileppi ~ill spend his 11th year in
Barbados.
"No one expected the class to
run after the first year, not even
me," Scileppi said.
The trip which will cost $925 this
year, and an additional $768 for the
three credits earned, was almost
filled up by last April Scileppi said.
Scileppi used to give brochures
to
~
the psychology professors to
advertise the trip, but in recent
years, students recommending the
trip to friends has been sufficient
advertising.
Lorraine Masciarelli, a senior
from Wantagh, N.Y., participated
in class last year, read about the
trip and when friends suggested it,
she decided to go.
Masciarelli found the trip to be
a rewarding experience.
"Going abroad during a time of
war gave me a new perspective on
life inside and outside the U.S.,"
Masciarelli said. "I think it's
definitely educational because
you're abroad, but it's also a lot of
fun."
Many professors are skeptical
about how educational the trip
really is.
When the school wanted to stop
running the trip, professors who
had panicipated on the trip wrote
letters to the editor praising both
the educational and social aspects
of the trip, Scileppi said.
The class meets Monday through
Saturday from 9 a.m. to 12:30
p.m., . for the two weeks the
students are in Barbados. In their
spare time they can study on the
beach or practice skills they have
learned during class, according to
Scileppi.
Many students feel guilty taking
a class in such an atmosphere, this
causes them to be super-motivated
to learn, Scileppi said.
Scileppi suggests that students
should have an Introduction to
Psychology or Communications
class as a prerequisite, but it isn't
always necessary.
awhile, until they get over-excited
and I have to tell them to calm
down or else someone is walking."
The rate for more than three or
four passengers • is $1 each, but
often people cannot produce the
regular $3.50 when there are one or
two passengers, so Godfreyd will
cover it himself.
"Chuck is the coolest," one of
the students said as she got out
from the van to get into her
residence hall, remembering when
Chuck had paid for her ride.
The nights between Wednesday
and Saturday are very busy for
Godfreyd, and along with the
passengers he has had, there have
been strange incidents that the
other cab drivers and he talk about.
He parks cab #73 in front of the
local nightclub, Berties, as other
_colleagues
of his climb into the cab
and have a cigarette, sharing amus-
ing stories from the past or that
night.
He recalls a woman who did not
want to sit in the back seat because
she would be sick.
She sat in the front with God-
freyd and before he knew it,
because he was tired and was con-
centrating on the road, the woman
had peeled half her clothes off.
Godfreyd had a good sense of
humor about the incident and told
her to put her clothes back on,
chuckling to himself.
He once had Bruno San Mar-
tino, a very famous wrestler, in his
cab and on another occasion, the
Junk:yard Dog, who is also a
wrestler.
"This guy was nuts because he
said he was going to get a late.night
snack at Denny's," Godfreyd said
about the Junkyard Dog's appetite.
"He came out with three shopping
IIIIII/IIIIIIIJ
bags full of food, just for a
snack!"
The meeting was adjourned for
another night because Harry the
dispatcher gave Godfreyd another
' call on the c-band radio to pick up
yet another celebrity of the
neighborhood - the owner of the
Log Cabin pub.
"It's a funny thing," Godfreyd
said when he dropped off the man
whom he has known for 24 years
at his house in Red Hook. "That
was the first time I picked him up .
and drove him to his house."
It was 12:45 a.m. when he drove
to the Hess station on Route 9 in
Hyde Park, when he tanked 16.271
gallons of gas -
it was now 5:50
a.m. and time to fill cab #73 again,
drive to the dispatching unit and go
home to sleep for another four
hours.
"The man on the desk can either
make you or break you," God-
freyd said, tipping the ash from his

NEC scheduling shift
leaves students out
by
KEITH SOUT AR
Staff Writer
The lack of home games on the men's basketball schedule while
students are on campus was a result of the Northeast Conference schedul-
ing system, said Gene Doris, director of athletics.
Marist, which will play just five homes in front of the student body,
will
play eight games in the McCann Center during winter break.
The NEC handles most of the scheduling and it is simply Marist's turn
to have most of its home games over winter break, said Doris.
"The last two seasons, we've been away over break while other schools
have had home games while most of the students are away," he said.
"It
is just.our turn this year."
The Pepsi-Marist Classic, usually scheduled in early December,
wiU
also be during break to due conflicting final exain schedules of the par-
ticipating schools.
Despite missing the student body fqr most of the home games, Doris
said he is not worried about attendance problems ..
"I don't think it will affect the team too much either because we get
such great community support for the games," he said.

"One nice thing that comes out of this schedule is the fact that we
will be able to bring in groups from the community, such as church groups
and the Boy Scouts, to see the games," said Doris. "We couldn't really
do those things with all the students here."
Buchanan, a sophomore, led the Red Foxes with 27 points against the Verich Reps last
Doris said it would be nice to have more hoine games for the students
but noted the students will see important games.

Non-schOlatshipathletes motivated from within

Rob Johnson can't remember
the last time he spent a day doing
nothing.
Johnson, a junior, is a Marist
athlete who participates without
the aid of athletic scholarship
money.
•
•
A member of the cross country,
track and swim teams, Johnson
says his schedule is crammed with
hours of practice, long bus rides to
events and a full course load of
studies.

Hard work, fun and pain are
what motivates Johnson.

said he has no plans to retire until
the game stops being fun.
"It crosses my mind every time
we ha,,·e a losing
season,"
he said.
''Then
I
think how much fun
I
have with the people l am in,.·olv-
ed with and that changes my
mind."
"It is the satisfaction of know-
ing you worked hard," he said.
"It's
fun and it's painful - but it's
a good kind of pain."
Morgan Bondon, a soccer player
from Colts Neck, N.J., said he felt
less pressure on the field because he
was not "being paid to perform."
"Athletes on scholarships have
more pressure because they have to
do well," the senior said.
"I
don't
have to. I do it because it is fun."
Jason Menu, a starting tackle on
the football team, said he feels bet-
ter about himself because he does
not receive money;
"I put in the same amount of
time and work - I'm just not get-
ting paid for it," said the senior
from East Hampton, N.Y.
"It
makes me feel like a better person
because I'm doing it for myself, the
team and the camaraderie."
Head Baseball Coach Art Smith
said motivation
for a non-
scholarship athlete
can
be difficult.
"Psychologically, it may be a lit-
tle tougher for the non-scholarship
athlete because he feels it is essen-
tial that he excels," he said. "Ego
also plays a part. You want to show
that you're as good as some of the
others and probably should have
had some scholarship money
yourself."
Phil Kelly, head coach of the
women's cross country team, said
•
runners are motivated from within.
Indoor.
program
gets underway
by
BRIAN IERARDI .
Staff Writer
The indoor track team began practice'last week in preparation for its
first season of inter-collegiate competition since 1986-87.
The indoor track program were reinstated last year when the Athletic
Department announced the addition of four new sports - baseball, soft-
ball and indoor and outdoor track.
Coaches Pete Colaizzo and Phii Kelly said they want to develop a com-
plete program which will be competitive at the Division I level.
•
"We want a competitive program, not just a cross country team work-
ing out in the winter and spring," said Colaizzo, who is also the men's
cross country coach.
"The key for us to be competitive will be the ability to fill the events
that we are allowed at each meet," said Kelly, the women's cross coun-
try coach.
The number of interested athletes has reached about
70
students, said
the coaches.
This group includes cross country runners, football players and other
interested athletes.
"We have the kids, but whether they will stick with it will be the pro-
blem," said Colaizzo.
"Based on the early numbers, I'm happy, especially with the men's
side. But the season doesn't really get going until the second semester
so we'll have to wait and see," said Kelly, a 48-year-old resident of
Poughkeepsie.
In addition to the numbers problem, the coaches said they are also
concerned with the lack of track facilities on campus.
With
no outdoor and a less than adequate indoor track, the team will
make due by using the swimming pool and the racquetball court for train-
ing during inclement weather, said the coaches.
"In
most cases, cross country
runners are self-motivated," he
said. "They train hard so they
don't
embarrass
themselves.
Frankly, everyone puts pressure on
themselves in this sport because it
is very individual."
For Matt Palmer, a soccer player
who receives a scholarship, there
was a great deal of pressure during
his first practices at Marist.
"The first few days on the team
I was nervous that the guys set me
up on a pedestal," said the 21-year-
old goalkeeper from Houston,
•
Texas.
"I
didn't want to let them
down -
they accepted me and
never gave me a a hard time. Now
we are one bi2 hannv familv."
Sarah Sheehan, a member of the
cross country team who receives a
scholarship, said she admires non-
scholarship athletes because of
their determination.
"To
a
coach, that should mean
a lot because it shows their hearts
are in it," said the junior from
Spring Lake, N.J.
Gene Doris, director of athletics,
compared the non-scholarship
athlete to a marathon runner.
"ln a marathon, most runners
know they have no chance at the
prize money," he said. "But the
money enhances the marathon,
which makes runners enter it.
However most are there to surpass
their own personal goals."

It has been a year of streaks for the football team.
After starting the season with two losses, the Red Foxes went on a
three-game winning streak.
Then, it was another two-game losing streak.
Now, having beaten FDU-Madison last Saturday, the Red Foxes have
put together a two-game winning streak and will attempt to make it three
straight this Saturday when they travel to Worcester, Mass. to take on
Assumption College.
•
The Red Foxes were originally slated to play Brooklyn College.
However, when Brooklyn dropped its program earlier this year, Marist
filled the void with Assumption.
The 26-7 win over FDU improved Marist's record to 5-4 - assuring
a second consecutive season of .500 or b..:tter.
After •being shutout in the first half, Marist did all its damage in the
final two quarters against FDU.
The go-ahead touchdown was scored by sophomore sensation Don
D'Aiuto.
The tailback capped off an 11-play drive with a I-yard sc.oring plunge
-
his eighth of the season.
D' Aiuto, playing with a hurt shoulder, continued his offensive
onslaught -
tallying 162 yards on 24 carries.
With one game left on the schedule, D'Aiuto needs 49 yards to break
the Marist single-season rushing record.
For his efforts, D' Aiuto was once again named Atlantic Collegiate
Football Conference offensive player of the week. The sophomore was
also named to the ECAC NY /NJ Metro Honor Roll. •
Marist put the game away on the next possession.
Faced with a fourth-and-eight, FDU was forced to punt.
Standing on his own 27-yard line, Marist return specialist Bruce A.
Harris went to work.
The freshman returned the kick 73 yards for a touchdown to put Marist
on top 19-7.

The men's basketball team pro-
ved· one thing in its scrimmage
against the Verich Reps last Satur-
day at the Mccann Center - this
year will be different than last
season.
The Red. Foxes, coming off a
horrendous 6-22 season a year ago,
opened the exhibition season losing
to the Reps 106-98 in overtime.
Trailing by four points at
halftime, Marist evened things up
. in the second half on two free-
throws from Izett Buchanan which
put the game in overtime.
In the last five minutes of play,
it was the experience of the Reps
which helped seal the victory.
Marist Head Coach Dave
Magarity has his own reasoning for
the loss.
"I take full blame for the lack
of preparation," the sixth-year
coach said. "Some of our stuff just
isn't in yet. We had to put in some
plays at the half."
Despite not having all the plays
learned, the Red Foxes looked
much better than last year's club.
In fact, the only thing showing
from last year's squad was the poor
free throw shooting. Marist shot
just 59 percent on the night.
Magarity said he was happy with
the effort of his team.
"There
is
really no reason for me
to be negative," he said. "We gave
a great effort.
"There is room for improve-
ment, sure, but we are off to a
good start.,;
Leading the way for Marist was
Buchanan. The sophomore tallied
a game-high 27 points while collec-
ting nine rebounds.
Senior Fred Ingles notched 22
points and grabbed a team-high 11
rebounds.
The rebounding, which is one of
the keys to this season, was ex-
cellent, Magarity said.
"We • did a good job against
them on the boards," he said.
• 'That is one of our biggest areas
of concern and we did a good job
tonight."

ups, downs
of soccer year

For Head Coach Howard
Goldman and the rest of the soc-
cer team, it was a frustrating year.
Marist was shutout in its last
game of the season, losing to St.
John's 3-0. The Red Foxes were
outshot 24-5.
• After starting the season with
two consecutive victories, the Red
Foxes finished with an overall mark
of 4-13-2.
During the 1991 campaign,
Marist lost eight games by one goal
and suffered through a mid-season
nine-game losing streak.
Despite
the poor
record,
Goldman said his team was in con-
trol of some games.
"We played well consistently ex-
cept for four or five games," the
coach said. "We had a problem
putting people away but we did
dominate some teams."
Junior Shawn Scott said some of
the team's problems were mental.
"Our minds frame wasn't there
at the beginning of the games,"
said the team's leading scorer. "We
had some lapses."
Juan Favero, a freshman from
Buenos Aires, Argentina said the
team did not react quickly enough
to certain situations.
"In order to get us to react,
something negative would have to
happen," the 19-year-old said.
Former Marist player and Assis-
tant Coach Dan Sullivan said the
team had difficulty keeping its in-
tensity level up.
• "It
was difficult
for
the players
to stay focused after winning only
one game in a stretch of
11,''
he
said. "Losing is very discouraging
and we lost a lot of our intensity
during that stretch.
"The hole got so deep we just
couldn't get out."
Besides
losing
intensity,
sophomore Greg Avgerakis said
the team lost its will to win during
the losing streak.
"Once you lose five or six games
in a row, you lose some of your in-
terest," he said.
Senior Morgan Bondon said the
team lost many of its close games
because .of it's failure to execute
when it had the chances.
"Offensively, we couldn't put
the ball in the net," the 21-year-old
"You have to score to win."
Despite suffering two con-
secutive losing seasons, Goldman
