Under
Core/Liberal
•
Studies, however,
students iri the Science of Man Pro-
gram must fill all the Core/Liberal
Studies requirements. The Science
of Man courses satisfy only part of
those requirements.
A major requiremeniofthe pro~
gram is the seniof thesis, which is.:
written on a topic the student has
•
been exploring throughout the four
years. The thesis is intended to raise
questions of understanding, judg-
ment and values, Lewis said.
Students are invited to par-
ticipate in the Science of Man Pro-
gram after their academic folders
have been reviewed for evidence of
intellectual curiosity or potential
leadership. Generally, the students
selected are in the upper fifth or se-_
cond fifth of their high school class
and have above-average sc~res on
the Scholastic Aptitude Test.
An attempt is made to vary class
composition by major field to en-
courage a diverse classroom at-
mosphere, Lewis said.
The prograin
was initially
designed to offer students the op-
portunity to graduate in three
years, but in recent years the_three-.
year option has been discouraged,
Lewis said.
The program was given the name
"Science of Ma1_1"
by its founder,
Dr. Xavier Ryan, formerly a pro-
fessor of philosophy at Marist. The
name was taken from the work of
Erich Fromm, who used the term
to identify an integrated understan-
ding of human nature, said Lewis.
The name is now being changed
to Science of Humanities to
'
eliminate the sexist overtones of the
word "man," said Lewis.

in other meetings with officials on

He also noted that incident
reports had to be completed in each

disciplinary situation, along· with
interview statements from every
person involved. There has been

Sansola said he was sensitive

the RD job demands documenta-
tion. ''I understand the demands,
and steps were being taken to cen-
tralize the system approach to the
work and to standardize forms. We
are trying to streamline the paper-
work burden," Sansola said.
,
Another contributing factor in
his resignation was the change in

"The

residence director of Marian Hall.

MariStS'tudentS to fast today
_ by Michael J. Nolan
Hunger is a concern of the world
and should be a concern to the
Marist community, Sister Eileen
Halloran, director of campus •
ministry, says.
That's why, she said, Marist is
marking its fifth annual Hunger
Week this week.-"We attempt to
raise the consciousness of the
Marist community," Sister Eileen
said.
Hunger'week events began Mon-
day and will continue through next .
Tuesday.
Fifteen million people die of
hunger every year, and more than
._500
million people exist on the edge
of starvation, according to infor-
' mation the Catholic Relief Services
released
-this
year.
•
One billion people, or nearly
one-quarter of the world's popula-
tion; live in a chronic state of
malnutrition, and during the 1970s
the gap in food production between
rich and poor countries widened,
according to CRS .
Campus
Ministry
sponsors
Hunger Week in conjunction with
Oxfam America, an organization
working to prevent hunger. A ma-
jor event of the week takes place
today, when students are asked to
forgo a meal in the cafeteria and
have the money saved donated to
Oxfam.
Similar events are being held
across the country today as part of
Oxfam Fast Day.
Seiler's Food Corp., which
operates the cafeteria on the Marist •
campus, will donate a dollar to Ox-
fam America for each student who
participates. Last year only 400
students participated in the fast.
"We are hoping to do more in
terms of the Oxfam fast," said
Sister Eileen. Campus Ministry has
made more of an attempt to make
students aware of the day this year.
Sign-ups for the fast were held on
• Monday and Tuesday during din-
ner hours and also from
11
a.m. to
I p.m. in Donnelly.
The number of students par-
ticipating
this year was not
available at press time.
•
Also on the agenda is the Annu~I
Thanksgiving Interfaith Service,
which will be held on Tuesday,
Nov. 26. "lt is an attempt to raise
the consciousness of the Marist
community" about hunger and the
poor, Sister Eileen said. Food
baskets donated from the com-
munity will be presented
at
the
service.
The service will be the culmina-
tion of the week's activities and will
focus on a prayer of thanks for
what those present have and a
prayer for those who are less for-
tunate, she said.
Earlier this week, Campus
_ Ministry showed two films,
"I
Want to u,,e" and "The Business
of Hunger." A slide show, "Take
Charge:
The
Struggle
for
Economic Justice,"
was also
shown.
"When
I
first came here,
I
had
a concern that something be done
by Campus Ministry, and also to
get others to respond to addressing
the issues in a concrete way," Sister
Eileen said. "I felt that I needed to
be an enabler."
She urged students to become in-
volved by learning about hunger
and what they can do.
Marist marks Adult Lea,rning Week wi'th Open house
by Donna Roe
An open house and a lecture on
"iest Taking Strategies" were part
of activities this week sponsored by
the Manst College School of Adult
Education in recognition of Adult
Learning Week, which is being
marked this week.
_ - Adult Learning Week is a
statewide event whose purpose is
«to
promote _ greater
pu~lic
awareness of the availability and
variety of learning opportunities
for adults," according to a state
press release concerning Adult
·Learning Week.
. "The purpose of Adult Learning
Week is to make Marist students
more aware of adult education and
students on campus," said Eleanor
Charwat, acting directior of degree
programs in the Schoo_! of Adult
Education.
The theme for this year's Adult
Learning Week is "New York State -
Where Learning Never Ends."
An open house was held Tuesday
from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m.
to
let the
adults in the Hudson Valley know
about the courses and oppor-
tunities available to them.
A workshop titled "Test Taking
Strategies" was also conducted.
It
was co-sponsored by Adult Educa-
tion and the Marist Adult Student
Union. Yvonne Poley, a counselor
at the Marist
'Counseling
Center is
the instructor for the evenin·g.
The adult students make up-ap-
proximately one-quarter of the
population of Marist College
students, according to Charwat.
There are 626 adult students cur-
rently enrolled. Of those,548
students are part-time, 78 are full
time students.
The number of part-time adult
students is steadily increasing.
. However, the number of full-time
• adult students is dropping.
"Marist is very. receptive for
adult students," said Charwat.
"There are different needs for
adult students and Marist meets
those needs very well."
The orientation
for adult
students and the access of the
bookstore during the evenings at
the beginning of the semester are
just a couple of examples ·or this.

It'·s_ time to settle·
After almost six months of dispute, negotiations between the Marist
administration and the Secretarial Clerical Association are still a long
way from a settlement.

SCA members are still requestiQgJ1 9 percentpay increase across
the board, but they have prepared alternate proposals at the request
of the federal mediator. None of these proposals have been accepted
to date. The.administration, however, is being firm with their 7.5 per-
cent increase proposal.

Currently, the administration maintains they cannot afford a 9 per-
cent increase for SCA members, given their "overall budget re-
quirements." They also cla~m that if they do gra~t the
_se_cretarie~
a
9 percent increase, they will be forced to negottate similar pay
in-
creases 'with other employee groups on campus.
However, SCA members consider themselves worthy of an increase
comparable to that already received by the confidential secretaries,
•
those who serve senior administrators. SCA members think they are_.
worth it to administration and the Marist community.

Still, questions remain: Has any real progress been m~de? Ho:,v
much is the administration really willing to give in order-to bring a swift
•
end to the deadlock? Are the two sides still even negotiating?
By taking a hard-nosed approach, the administration ~ad earlier in-
dicated that an outside mediator was the only way potential movement
could be made. But with both sides finally agreeing
to
go with the
mediator, it seems the SCA is now the only party making any kind
of movement at the table.
,
If the administration has given its final offer, then negotiations have
ended unsuccessfully. Let's hope the administration will make an_other·
otter, a good offer, soon, so negotiations can finally come to a sat,sfac-•
tory end.

Given these
stressful
conditions
workers representing various relief
organizations disagree, sometimes
vociferously, on how best to stop
the hunger. For example, the U.S.
Agency for International Develop-
ment and UN agencies have
developed strained relations regar-

Westerners, moreover, must guard
against their inclination to totally
dominate assistance efforts at the
expense of African officials.
On October 16th the UN Food

Over one hundred fifty nations
reaffirmed the war on hunger and
malnutrition. Yet clearly Africa is
far from realizing the FAO's mot-

Need some
legal
help?,Here:',S'
wltei-e to· go_
by .Debora Vincent·'
The chair is cold, hard and very
uncomfortable.
In front of you, at a gray steel
desk, a police officer asks you
routine questions: name, age, ad-
• dress, phone number, marital
status, Social Security number.
·You're being booked after an ar-
rest, and what you do next could
have
a
profound effect on your life.
That next step, most legal ex-
perts say, should be to get a lawyer,
even if you're certain of your in-
nocence. Regardless of your finan-
cial situation, legal help is available
to you in Dutchess County, both
for criminal cases and for civil
cases, such as disputes· with .
landlords.
The best place to start is the
Lawyer Referral Service of the
Dutchess County Bar Association,
This service will provide you with
the name, telephone number and
address of a local attorney who
handles-cases similar to yours.
If
you can't afford to pay full
legal fees, the service will refer you
to a-lawyer who will represent you
at a reduced rate.
Says Marie Meehan, executive
secretary for the association, "We •
can usually make some type of ar-
rangements for _stud~nts." )"ou

Some students may also qualify
for a bar association program run
in conjunction with Mid-Hudson •
Legal Services. In the program,
private attorneys who have agreed
to handle a certain number of cases
free-of-charge are assigned clients
who cannot afford to pay legal
fees. Clients are seen by appoint-
ment only and must meet the in-
come guidelines set up by the bar
association, according to Catharine
Charuk, acting director of litiga•
tion for Mid-Hudson
Legal
Services.
There is one problem with call-
ing the Lawyer Referral Service.

students plea~ed wit}i qccessibility
by Donna Hood
Ray Ruckel is pleased with
Marist College. So ·are Frank .
Sciaretta,
John Halko,
Jim
Schalck, and Amy Squicciarino.
These are some of the wheelchair
students here at Marist.
According to these students, .
Marist
College has a good
awareness of their needs and shows
a willingness to respond. They con-
sider Marist an accessible school.
According to Special Services, a •
campus support service for the
disabled, Marist complies to Sec-
tion 504 of the Federal Rehabilita-
tion Act of 1973, which states that
the disabled student should be able
to fully function on campus,
as
well
as
in the classrooms. In compliance
with this act, Marist has made ac-
commodations on campus to make
the buildings wheelchair accessible.
"I haven't found a building yet'·
I've had to get into and couldn't,"
said Ray Ruckel, a junior transfer
from Farmingdale College, who
uses
a manually
operated
wheelchair. "Marist is ten times
better than Farmingdale."
John Halko, a junior who uses
a motorized · wheelchair, said
Marist is one of. the niost accessi-
ble schools on the East Coast.
"I
toured many schools before I chose
Marist," he said. "A lot of big
naine schools had fantastic
academics, but were physically in-
accessible."
When ·he toured
Marist, he said he found he could
get aroµnd with little nssismn~.

Indoor track
starts to run
und.er L·urie
by Ellen Ballou
Although the Marist men's and
women's cross country season end-
ed t_wo
weeks ago, there is still the
indoor-outdoor
track season
ahead. The first meet is scheduled
for this Saturday, at West Point.
This is Steve Lurie's third year
coaching track. In his first year, the
Marist team had five members.
Now the team has grown in
number and "with the gain in
number comes the gain in quality
-
hopefully," said Lurie .
The Marist track team consists
of 49. people - eight women and
31 men. It's a young team with on-
ly six seniors, one junior and 47
sophomores and freshmen. The
seniors that will be running
distance include: Pete Pazik, Mike
Murphy, Pete Coaizzo and John
Clements. Clements;a transfer stu-
dent, will be running track for the
first time.
Other seniors running for Marist
are Christian Morrison in the mid-
distance and Donald Godwin in the
half mile.
The track season is a long one .
It lasts until March indoors and un-
til May outdoors.

said Watters, who
has been with the club during its
six years in existence.
"The satifaction we get out
of this is seeing the Marist

Poughkeepsie area and knowing
that we're

part of it," said

Another incentive added to the
program this yearwas a $10 forfeit
fee to insure that students show up
for their games. '.'The idea is not
to take money from the students.
It's to try and maintain attendance
and participation," said Lynch. A
$10 forfeit fee is required from
each team at the J:>eginning
of the
season. If a team forfeits a game,
they Jose the $10. They get their
money returned at the end of the
season if no games are forfeited.

. greater interest and participation to
intramurals, Lynch said 'there are
still small problems with the
program.
Rosters being turned in late, try-
ing to accommodate all students in
the gym, and inexperienced student
referees are a few of the problems,
but they are not going to interfere
with the positive drive of the pro-
gram; said Lynch.
·
, Lynch said the program still has
room to grow; one idea involves ex- •
panding into intermurals with other
local colleges, he said.
,
Lynch said he would like to see
faculty and staff get involved in the
intramural program. He said tlie
program can provide a relaxed at-
mosphere in which students and
facqlty can get better acquainted.
Lynch said he would also like to
see a greater number of women
participating in the intramural pro-
gram in the future. Hopefully, the
addition of more co-ed sports will
show women that we need them, he
said.
• The addition of new events is.
also on the list of program goals.
Square·dancing,
aerobics,
women's
field hockey and inner tube racing
in the p<>ol
are some ideas for the·
future.
.
.: "Most importantly, we want
students to meet people and have
a
good time," said Lynch.
