''Cdmets signify_~orruption ofthest¥s._ They

-·English writer Thomas Digges,-1556.

Contrary to popular primitive belief, death ang

not be on the agenda of Halley's
• Comet in 1986; the space traveller has instead opted
for a more marketable image.

--around for the co_met,
whose 7 .6 billion mile orbit
. brings.it to our sun once every 76 years - no, no,
no. Our Earthly perception of comets has chang-
ed since medieval times; arid Halley's Comet '86
is more likely to reap
a
supernova of sales than
scares.
"There's·considerable-excitement," said Thomas
Crepet, director of the Jolin·R. Kirk Planetarium
at SUNY New Paltz; of-Halley's 30th recorded ap-
pearance,
"It
has definitely become a commercial
event. Manufacturers ·are • pushing telescopes,
chartsJstar-maps; pins, buttons and T-sirts: I've
even
got
a : glow~in-the-dark • • Halley's

>
.• _ .••.. _
Amazing how perceptions have. changed, isn't it?
Today, people listen-to E.F. Hutton. Back in 1456,
they listened to the_pope, and when Pope Calixtus
Ill allegedly excommunicated a comet - later nam-
ed after Edmond Halley in 1759...,.. and called it
an agent of Satan, people believed! You have to
forgive those early ,astronomers though, they
weren't much brighter than the dark side of the
moon -:--in their minds the sun revolved around
the Earth.
Their modern counterparts are getting almost as
excited. Amateur astronomers will first see the
comet with telescopes in November, bu"i if you
don't have one, you'll have to wait until January,
when it will be visible to the naked eye. The comet,
will disappear from view as it rounds the sun in
February, and we'll see it again in the early morn-
ing skies of March. Halley's will be brightest in
April, when it passes within 37 million miles of
Earth.
.
Crepet's planetarium, not about
to be left in a
black hole, will do its part to heighten our Halley's
awareness. As the comet brightens, it will hold
observation sessions, and it's already been runn-
ing an informational series called "Comet Halley:
Once in a Lifetime." The next presentations are
this Saturday and Sunday. For mor~ information
_ you can call the planetarium at i57-2066.
.
. ...
: The information the planetarium provides may
be reassuring to some individuals,· "There probably
will be some people scared bycthis ~coinei,,,said
Crepet. ''f>eople are stiU scared by solar eclipses."
Hopefully, this time Halley's Comet won't cause
the stir it did in 1910, whe_n
many people were ter-
rified by it. A ·backwoods· religious :sect· in
Oklahoma was rum·ored to have sacrificed a young
_ girl to ward off Halley's -"evil," said Crepet.
• Rumors also abounded that the Earth would pass
through the comet's tail, and some New Yo.rk Ci- -

With New York ,state's legal
drinking age increasing to 21 in lit-
tle over a month, Marist College
has formed
a
committee to deter-
mine an alcohol policy for drink-
ing on campus once the change
takes place.

The new Alcohol Policy Com-
mittee comprises college ad-
. ministrators and student leaders,
: according to Susan Ryan, student -
• body president. The committee's
goal is to make a proposal to the
administration
regarding
an
alcohol policy to be effective Dec.
I, the • date the law takes effect
throughout the state.
The committee has a deadline
date of Nov. 15 to reach a final
• proposal concerning the policy,

Ryan said.

said. The freshmen dormitories will
remain dry.
The current alcohol policy allows
students 19 and over to drink in •
Champagnat Hall, the Pub, other
upperclass dorms and any public
places approved by the Office of
Student Affairs ..
A policy for the north end of
campus has yet to be determined.
However, according to Ryan, the
committee is inclined to think that
the north end will not go dry.

Robert Carney, a
C-i
resident.
The residents said that the
mjnor,
freshman
.
Thomas
Maloney, issued a signed statement
claiming he did not drink at the
party because of a bleeding ulcer
condition.
Sansola

said
he believes
Maloney's presence warrants ac-
tion. "The minor should not have
been at the party and the fact that
he was constitutes a violation of
college policy,". Sansola said. He

also said that the handbook only
gives examples of college policy
arid isn't the only factor· in
discipline decisions.

The townhouse residents also
denied responsibility for the inci-
dent outside between a student and

Champagnat Residence Director
David Yozzi. "He (the student)
came from another party at
Townhouse A-6," Carney said.
"He wasn't even at our party."
He added that Yozzi "approach-
ed the student
without
identifica-
tion and told him that he'd settle
the incident off-campus."
Sansola said Yozzi did identify
himself and denies that Yozzi
challenged the student to a con-
frontation. He also said, "Thestu-
dent's presence at the door area of
C-7 is an indication that he was in-
volved in thaq1arty."

SansoJa also said that the college
was not looking at the alleged in-
fractions individually. "One infrac-
tion leads to another and the whole
thing builds," he said.
The C-7 residents also claimed
that they were denied "due pro-
cess" in their appeal. The college
handbook states that students must
be informed of violations within 24
hours after the incident. Resident
Jim Ferguson said that although
the party was on a Saturday, the
students were not informed of the
alleged infractions until Tuesday.

In determining a policy, the com-

tion the liability of the college once
the Jaw takes effect. According to
Ryan, the committee has met with
one of· the college's lawyers to
discuss its responsibility.
According to Paul Sullivan, the
college lawyer, Marist should make
a policy that is consistent with the
law and is clear cut, and will satisfy
the needs of both the college and
the law.

What kind of student attendance did administration want?:Dorms,
did not re-open until Wednsday noon, about three.hours after Con-
vocation activities _were scheduled to begin. The message was clear
to the students. Take an extra day off so ~he facl!lty can gather and
toss their ideas around aboµt_global .education and computing. Even
some faculty members were miffed that they had missed out on that
extra free ,day themselves. , • .

Well, _River Day has come and gone. So has Convocation Day.
Which will be ·remembered this year?

_ . . •
In just _three years, Convocation Day has evolved from-being so
hal_lowed that it was ,mandatory for students to attend, to where it is
now, an alternative to havi11g
.another day off for midterm break.
In the fall of 1982, st_udents were required to register.at.C_onvoca-
tion Day and then special lunch passes were issued to the students. ·
Students could. not get lunch without
'a
pass. Those who could not
attend for legitimate reasons were· expected to have their parents notify
the sctio~I. In the spring of 1984, when the subject was hur:nan rights,
Marist found it prudent to make Convocation Day optional..
Last year, there was no Convocation in the fall because classes had
been cancelled the previous Wednesday for a faculty meeting. The
school· did not think it wise to then further omit class time.
.
This year students were politely invited to attend. How odd it seem-
ed that the nine students that did show were recognized by the facul-
ty with a round of aIwlause.

Perhaps we should all think about this disappointing Convocation-
students, faculty and admin_istration. Students should think about
.motivating themselves to attend more than just River Day at Marist.
Faculty must share i_n
the responsibility of making students awareof .
Convocation Day and the experience that can be obtained from at- .
tending it. And administration should seriously address the question
of whether Convocation Day belongs at Marist or if it should be put
to rest. Can better planning salvage Convocation Day and make it a
worthwhile effort? •

As Dr. Kutzner said in her Convocation address, "we are all students
in this together so let's learn from what we do and help to educate
each other."

A.
What you are talking about
is the Freshman Survey Program
which has been offered as a ser-
vice by the college since 1978. Ac-
cording to Roberta
Amato, ..
director of counseling services, the
surveys are solely for
the
student's benefit.
The survey includes the SSHA
which measures study habits and
attitudes and the student's general
view of academics and techniques;
the Omnibus Personality Inyen-
tory, which looks at personality
characteristics, and intellectual
disposition;
and the Strong-
Campbell SCH, an inventory which
assesses career interests.
Amato stressed that these tests
are not used as psychiatric in-
struments and that they are not us-
ed
to
judge students. They are
cover feedback in areas relating to
being a college freshman and help
the student assess himself or
herself.
Results of the tests are currently
available in the Counseling Center.
Appointments may be made to

of the Counseling Center staff by

There are many nocturnal ac-

in. A particular freshman likes go-
ing to the Palace Diner with friends
at the midnight hour and ordering
breakfast foods. It has recently
been noticed by se_veral
stores and
a gas station owner that many of
their signs are missing. Others
prefer going out to such places as

there are always "river parties."
A major complaint freshmen
have is the dropping of items from
windows above such as pizza crust,
peanut butter sandwich pieces,
water, cigarettes, and paper. It is
quite annoying to walk in your
room and find pizza crust or ashes
on your newly-washed clothes.

"What do you mean?" asked his
friend.
'' I mean the Boss has everything
now -
millions of fans, tons of
dough, fame, even a beautiful wife.
He's just going to lay around, get
fat and raise a family;" the man
replied.
He then performed an impres-
sion of an overweight and frail-
voiced Springsteen singing "Born
in the U.S.A."
Now two months later, Springs-
teen has finally hung up his head-
band ending a 15-month concert
tour. Whether the prophesy envi-
sioned by the fan above comes true
remains to be seen. But what can
be analyzed is Springsteen's ascent
from rock's best kept secret to
worldwide superstar.
Anyone doubting Springsteen's
impact obviously has not visited a
.
newsstand within
the last six
months. Seems you can't even buy
the day's newspaper without seeing
him peering out from any of
several magazines. And the times
you purposely avoid looking at the
magazine
section thinking
you're safe, he's inside the paper
you've just bought.
It was considered a major event
in 1975 when both Time and
Newsweek featured Springsteen on
their covers. No other rock per-
former before then or since then
received that distinction. But this
year? Huh, Time and Newsweek
nothing. In August our hero cap-
tured the covers of both the Na-
tional Enquirer and the Weekly
World News within the same week.
No wonder your mother suddenly
likes him, she probably thinks he's
one of those soap opera stars turn-
ed rock singer.
The media attention Springsteen
has received raises a number of
questions. Among them: Has the
media reduced Springsteen to some
cartoon or mythological figure who
can do no evil?
Perhaps the greatest challenge of
Springsteen's career will be his
handling of his own persona. From
a credibility standpoint, it could be
The Other

debated
whether
·a
multi-
millionaire artist is able (or even
has the right)
to
accurately reflect
the concerns of the working class.
He will have to distance himself
from the hype and sensationalism.
Meanwhile, to remain accurate he
must not lose touch with the com-
mon man.
But ironicaUy, since Springs-
teen's themes deal with his au-
dience, it would seem near impossi-
ble to reduce the amount of media

exposure brought on by those very
same fans. His fans are so com-
mited because they feel he is one of
them. Jeans and. T-shirts are the
norm onstage and off. He even
uses poor grammar. But an artist
cannot have mass acceptance and
complete career control
too.
Especially when those fans are the
subject of the artist's work.
In the past when Springsteen had
approached the edge of superstar-
dom, he responded with what has
become a most useful tactic -
silence. Two or three years have
separated all of Springsteen's
work. And after the "Born in the
U.S.A." hysteria, it seems exactly
what
is
needed. Especially in these
days of sweating it out on the street
of a runaway American dream.

The actual trek to the laundry
room is, of course, different for
everyone. The people-in Leo will
probably be slightly grey at the
temples by the time the elevator
reaches the ground floor, while the
Champagnat people will have left
their stomachs roughly ,wo floors
above Ground (the latter being the
result of traveling at Warp eight).
Not everyone is fortunate to
have an elevator in their building,
as the residents of Sheahan and
Marian can testify. Since hernias
are part of the fun of college,
though, we can't feel too sorry for
them having to drag huge laundry
bags up and down long staircases.
Actually, when you get right
down to it, not everyone is for-
tunate enough to have washers and
dryers in their buildings, let alone
elevators. Just imagine the fun the
residents of the Garden Apart-
ments will have when winter comes
and they have to walk across the
courtyard to do laundry. Picture a
tiny muffled figure bravely trudg-
ing through a blizzard clutching a
·
five pound bag of dirty clothes. He
.
stumbles, falls, then is up again in
time for a huge blast of wind to
blow him through the door of the
laundry room, only to discover that
all the machines are in use ..
-
The students \vho live on North
Road also have an interesti1_1g
pro~
blem when it comes to clean
clothes. They. have a choice of
either using the lone washer and
dryer in one of the houses, or they
can take their lives in their hands
by crossing Route 9 to get to
Marian's laundry room. It would
seem to be an easy cl_loice,
but you
probably haven't seen the basement
-where
North Road's washer and
dryer are located. Complete with
such homey touches as a creaking
staircase, cobwebs and a lone 50
watt bulb, that room could unnerve
Norman Bates.
Once you reach the lal!ndry
room in safety, which is easier said
than done,-the worst is over. Now
all you have to do is find a free
washer, load your clothes and your
quarters in, and wait. Of course .
you'll probably end up running
back and forth between your room
and the laundry room five or six
times
to
check on your clothes, and
there's no guarantee
:
that the
machine won't eat your money, but
nothing is perfect. And there's
naturally a good chance it will take
you longer to find a free dryer than
it has taken to build Lowell
Thomas, but no one ever said life
was easy. And so what if the dryer
ingests three of your quarters and
still won't work, or if your clothes
are more damp coming out of the
dryer than when they went into it.
Remember, this is what college is
all about.

'The Jagged Edge'
by Maria Gordon
,
".When a murder case
is
this
shocking, which do you trust, your
emotions or your evidence?" After
both sides are presented, "Jagged
Edge" says neither is
trustworthy.

1n this suspense film, a woman
and her maid are brutally and
graphically slain by a man with a
jagged-edged knife. The husband,·
John Forrester, is arrested for this
"crime of lust for power and greed
for money."
His attorney, Teddy Barnes, comes
out of retirement to work on this
case. They have an affair while
working on his. case. Barnes is
always under attack by District At-
_to_rney
Krasny, her ex-partner.
As brutally as Marquand films
the slaying of·Forrester's wife and
maid, "Jagged Edge" bluntly ex-
poses ·our
·
unjudicious judicial
system, the biased press and the
·
battle of the sexes.
"Jagged Edge" makes no at-
tempt to make women look good.
Other than Barnes, the only women
we see are those who were used and
then abused by Forrester. Although
Barnes has an affair with Forrester,
we often wonder what her motive
is ...
-You
just want to get closer to
get a better look."
Forrester,
Krasny and Slade are all aggressors
and physically and verbally abuse
women throughout the film. Only
Barnes survives the "abuse"

because she learned how to use be-
ing a woman to her advantage, yet
is masculine, inferred by her name,
Teddy.
The main characters all have
something on one another. For-
rester writes· slanderous editorials
about Krasny and his race for the
Senate.
--Barnes
knows about
Krasny's illegal use of' the legal
system. Krasny uses Barnes' guilt
over her last case to keep her from
defending Forrester. The witnesses
are only pawns to be used and
abused by these three to get back
at one another.
Forrester
is
the editor of a San
Francisco paper. His wife would
not divorce him because he had "a
million dollar image." She used
him to sell her newspapers. For-
rester used smear tactics in his col-
umn to hinder Krasny's campaign.
The press was always around
waiting "for a word so they can
write their stories." Many times
Forrester and Krasny refuse
to
make statements to the press, not
"wanting to be part of the circus,"
and through that action, become
the news.
Like the press, the courts are
stages of manipulation. Barnes
retired because
she
did not want to
use or be used by anyone again.
"This is going to be a show
trial." There are cases in which
elections are won and careers are
made. Forrester's is one. The other
is a case in which an innocent man
dies for the sake of Krasny's career.
Barnes constantly questions For-
rester's innocence. She concludes
that he is guilty, but to win her case
and-beat
Krasny,
she finds
witnesses that will lit the testimony.
"How can you defend me
·if
you
think I'm guilty?" She replies,
"That's
how the legal system
works." It works on' fact, not
feeling.
A View
From Abroad
lt is all manipulation. Barnes
plays on the jury's emotions.
Krasny controls Barnes through
guilt. Witnesses arc found as need-
ed. Forrcs1er uses love to 1rap
Barnes. The manipulation goes on
and on. Forrester was just the best
at it. "He is an ice man." Teddy
Barnes, portrayed brilliantly by
Glenn Close, is a real person. She
is
not just a lawyer, but a single
mother with personal problems.
We can more readily sympathize
with her because she
is
not one-
dimensional. Closc's actions and
facial expressions tell us what the
dialogue does not.
Jeff Bridges does an excellent
job as John Forrester. His natural-
ly cool demeanor mirrors the cold
interior of a ruthless man. For-
rester's personality warms you, as
his web of deceit cuts you.
Although "Jagged Edge" is not
an action-packed suspense film, it
is full of twists. Just when you
think you know who did it, Krasny
or Barnes
calls
their next witness.
lt leaves a lot of unanswered ques-
tions throughout, but like a good
suspense film, all are answered in
the
end.
"Jagged Edge" is a "sit-on-the-
end-of-your-seat"
film. The
characters are intriguing and the
cast is strong. The action moves
along at a steady pace and little is
wasted. lt is a good suspense film.
Do you trust your emotions or
your evidence? Everything and
everyone is open to manipulation.
Facts, as well as feelings, arc used
and distorted for our own benefit.
"The only thing we can do is hope
we don't drown in the dirt and
slime.''

"I

Madame Bovary also has Hallo-

The range of prices for a com-

The cheapest costume was found
at Jamesway where a commercial

$5.99.
At the Salvation Army Thrift

what is needed.
The most expensive costumes
were found at Madame Bovary and

Madame Bovary, the average cost

Speaker:.
A~aftheid
hits closer
by i,rian O'Keefe
The demonstrations at colleges
and universities across the nation
during the past year have played a
major
role in divestiwrc
of
economic interests in South Africa,
according to Dr. Henry Jackson,
an expert on U.S. policy towards
South Africa.
Jackson recently spoke at Marist
about U.S. policy toward South
Africa The event, held October 9
in the campus theatre, was spon-
sored by the College Union.Board.
Jackson outlined the policy of
apartheid and the conflagration ~f
violence in South Africa.
Jackson discussed the economic
composition of the predominantly
black South African population.
"87 percent of the land is owned
by the minority of whites," he said.
The land owned by blacks, he add-
ed, is a mere 13 percent and of
undesirable terrain.
"Apartheid hurts all the popula-
tion more than. divestment ever
could," Jackson said in an inter-
view with the Circle. "Disinvest-
ment is not what has partitioned
that society into warring camps."
He predicted that apartheid will be
-
dismanth:d in a few years.
Jackson, who received a master's
degree in International Affairs and
a Ph.D. from Columbia Universi-
ty, is Chairman of the Department
.

Jackson commented on how the
the Reverend Jesse Jackson, the
former Democratic presidential.
candidate,
stooped
to "low
politics" when
,he
debated the
disinvestment issue with the Rev ..
Jerry Falwell, leader of the Moral
Majority.
"He associated himself with
Falwell in name calling appeals to
the basest instincts of American
political thinking," said Jackson.
"They both ended up in the
gutter."

The debate
.took
place on the
ABC
television
program
"Nightline" in September.
College

corit'11unities helped
raise the consciousness of the na-
tion, said Jackson. He said he ex-·
pects the college demonstratio·ns to

continue.



Immediately
,following
the lec-
ture, a student in.the audience an-
nounced

a
::Vassar
College
demonstratfori arid one that was to
take place af the Main MaU
in

Poughkeepsie
on
Friday, October.

was
held in conjunc-
tion with the
..
Committee Against
Profits for Oppression of Dutchess
County.
In the interview, Jackson said
that the Weicker-Kennedy Bill that
was pre-empted
by President
Reagan's executive order imposing
limited economic sanctions was just
the beginning of new legislation.
"It's simply the first step of a
long term plan," said Jackson. He
said the ultimate goal of newer
legislation will be to end all trade
with the Republic of South Africa.
10 state governments have
divested stock

in companies in
South Africa. 29 U.S. cities have
done this, including New York Ci-
ty and Poughkeepsie, and colleges
and universities across the country
have made motions to divest stock
in companies doing business in
South Africa in recent months.

Guards were on campus both Sun-
day and Monday.
Leo, Sheahan, Champagnat and
Marian halls were guarded and
locked to prevent seniors from
entering the dorms during the
Monday morning wake-up call at
5 a.m., Waters said.
"They made no attempt to storm
the dorms," he said. "We had
guards on duty from 2 a.m. on."
Gerard Cox, vice president for

River Day's new location. He was

at the gathering, he said, but only
Michael Mueller, the class presi-

• "There was absolutely no com-

this River Day and the staff of the
college," Cox said.
Several seniors criticized the ad-
ministration for moving the event
off campus, saying the change en-
dangered students travelling bet-
