Search/or
. safe thieves
continues
by Sharon Barriaga
Police are currently searching for
two suspects out of an original
three in the theft of a safe from the
college activities office on Oct. 28,
according to Town of Poughkeep-
sie Police Detective David Howard.
Howard said they have two
definite suspects, neither Marist
students or faculty, but that they
have no idea of their location. "I
believe they are out of town or
possibly out of the state," he said.
Looking at the facts surrounding
the case, he said that the theft did
not appear pre-planned.
Police said that the safe was
stolen sometime between 12:40 and
8:20 a.m., and'that a lead in the in-
vestigation was a vehicle seen leav-
ing the campus· with a safe pro-
truding
from the trunk,
said
Howard.
The safe was found about two
weeks later at an undisclosed loca-
tion with the door torn off and the
contents missing, he said.
The safe, which is used to tem-
porarily store college activities
money, contained keys to Campus
Center offices and classrooms and
approximately $1,000, said Betty
Yeaglin, director of college ac-
tivities.
PDC __
_
Continued from page I
The PDC will handle the
psychological,
spiritual
and
physical aspects of the student, Bell
said.
The three areas are being called
the holistic group, said Bell,
because they handle all aspects of
human beings.
Professionally, each grnup wi\\
have
a
different 0rientation but a
mutual concern for all the issues,
according to Roberta Amato, coor-
dinator of counseling.
"lt's more than putting three of-
fices toget_her," said Amato. "It's
putting three offices-together that
deal with the same issues."
The combined services are also
• more convenient and worthwhile
for the students,
said Bell.
''Sometimes when a student goes
there for one reason they'll also be
there for other reasons that are
associated with the other areas,"
Bell said. "A health problem may
lead to counseling."
The new center also allows each
of the three areas to expand and •
improve its individual services, said
Bell.
According
to Sister Eileen
Halloran,
director of campus
ministry, the additional office
space allows the executive officers
of campus ministry to post office
hours to meet with students as peer
·ministers. Also, the access to cook-
ing facilities allows for more socials
where groups can share meals.
Health Services benefits from the
increase in space compared to its
previous office in Champagnat,
currently housing special services,
said O'Brien. "With the office in
the back, I can speak privately with
someone if they have a problem,"
she said. "Sometimes girls come in
and think they're pregnant."
O'Brien added that next semester
she plans to bring in a family nurse
practitioner once a week to initial-
ly offer counseling or gynecological
services for the female students.
Counseling Services benefits
from the more appropriate and
professional environment they have
to offer the students, according to
Amato.
• A new faculty dining room has
been planned to fill the space in
Champagnat Hall vacated by the
Counseling Services, according to
Anthony Tarrantino, director of
physical plant. No completion date
has been set, he said.

In an

such a move
should
come from the

"Public policy in international
affairs should not be made at the

he
said.
"E\'ery day you learn something
new."
Learning for the reporters has
been two-fold. They have learned
about journalism and about this
area.
Dempsey, a reporter for the
LaGrange Ledger, said that she has
learned a lot about the vicinity.
"Culturally, Dutchess County is a
lot richer than I thought while I was
at r-.-tarist.'" she said. "There arc a
lot of thinus to do that l could ha\'e

The reporters, in separate inter-
views, said
that The Circle and

\f-.jhy are students angry? Some aren't exactly sure themselves.
Students have begun lumping old problems like housing shortages
and the still unfinished Lowell Thomas Communications Center with
new problems like incomplete services in the Garden Apartments and
the discontinuation of van service to Canterbury Gardens.
.
Students hear the admini$tration promising solutions, but see little
• concrete evidence of its efforts. Slow progress in many problem areas
has caused a a snowball effect, creating one universal problem: the
students have lost perspective and faith in an administration they think
is no longer credible.

.
While students have valid concerns, the administration has offered
some legitimate explanations. Problems with contractors and weather •
contributed to delays in housing construc_tion and the Lowell Thomas
Center; and the somewhat unexpected growth in the college's populari-
ty added to the housing crunch.

Expansion of the college will inevitably caus~ growing pains and
the students should understand that it's not fair to lump varied pro-
blems together. In addition, the college's credibility should not rest
solely on the speed of its problem-solving.
But while solving current problems may not be the main issue,
preventing additional problems is.
• Poor planning, weak student government and a lack of accessible
key people witfl the necessary information to answer students' pointed
questions have all contributed to past problems. Improving these
aspects could prevent new problems in the future.
Lack of efficient planning has been demonstrated repeatedly in the
Garden Apartments. First, a major factor in construction delay was
Marist's altering of design plans. Then, more recent aggravation
stemmed from the lack of and quality of services in the Garden
Apartments..

.
Students moved into apartments without provisions for telephones,
washing machines, TV cables or handicapped parking. In addition,
two separate installations of overly sensitive smoke detectors inconve-
nienced students for weeks with numerous unnecessary alarms.

By the time this gets printed, the

"Alarm at Apartments Prompts

(Circle, Nov.

When the article first came out,
I was rather surprised

to remove the student. They were,

was even more surprised at the
ironic coincidence that one of the
two mentioned students in the af-
fair is a part-time writer for The
Circle, and the other is one of her

friends. Though Gina Disan-

the building, they did not pull the

press on the issue. (Maybe it was
the other way around.) When I sug-

letter, and we'd all sign it. What
never dawned on me was the fact
that she had gotten her credit, and
there was no reason for her to give
it up ..
Another fact (this one scares me)
is that the article stated that Fair-

The "we,"

able to take advantage of intern-

They feel this is the next step into

opportunity to put into practice all

problem by referring to the terms
"Russia" and the "Soviet Union"

As in any major, a great amount
of thought and consideration goes
into choosing a future career.
Entering the field of education is
no exception. Every step of the way
may encourage or discourage your
decision. The education courses
and field work not only prepare the
student for a teaching career, they
also screen out those individuals
who may find this field is not for
them.
Along with the required courses,
students wishing to enter the Marist
Teacher Education Program must
successfully complete other re-
quirements·as well. Each student is
responsible for maintaining at least
a 2.5 grade point average. They
must obtain references from college
professors and other professionals
in the field upon entering the pro-
gram, and complete volunteer,
practice and student teaching
assignments. Field work is also re-
quired which involves observa-
tions, evaluations and other outside
projects.
Each student must also provide
their own transportation to other
colleges for classes, lectures, and
other campus activities. There are
also other intangible qualities such
as energy, flexibility, creativity and
patience which continue to make
teaching a challenging career.
Speaking for eight seniors who
are now completing the final re-
quirements of this program, we
would like to thank the faculty and
staff not only for their constant en-
couragement and support,
but
more importantly, for being role
models. We arc proud to have been
a part of this program. We only
hope that someday our students

makes a very strong case that the
people of Russia have suffered
more at the hands of the Bolsheviks
and Soviet Communists than any
oilier narional group or people in
the Sovie! Union.
As a Lithuanian - American,
born in independent Lithuania in
I 937, I read your article \vith
dismay and, even, personal pain.
By not differentiating between
terms "Russians"
and· other
"Soviet people," you are saying to
the American public that Luthua-
nians, Ukrainians, Georgians, and
other national groups, all are ge-
nuine ethnic Russians, without
their own unique cultures or
historical pasts. Your abuse of
these terms further adds to the
public's confusion about the reali-
ty in the Soviet Union.
By not stating these differences,
both you and the New York Times
are guilty of withholding informa-
tion.
It
is no wonder that people
were confused by.the poll question:
"If
they had free elections in the
Soviet Union today, would the
Communist Party win or lose?"
Your article, on page 80 of the
New York times Moga:;;.ine,
inter-
prets the response to this question,
which 49% of those polled
answered "lose," as
"A
final

of the Soviet citizens.•·
This is not a "misconception."
To many nationalities in the Soviet
Union, results of such a free elec-
tion would be a resounding "no·•
to the Communist Party. Lithua-
nians, Latvians, Estonians, Ukrai-
nians, Georgians, Volga Tartars
and the Moslem population of the
Central Asian Republics suffered
and continue to suffer the- cruel
repressions of the Soviet Com-
munist System.
What legitimacy can the three
Baltic States assign the Communist
Party, when the Soviet State for-
cibly and illegally seized them in
1939 and ended their sovereign, in-
dependent status? The Baits to this
very day carry the scars of the
brutal Soviet occupation, and the
mass exile of its people to Siberia.
Baits and Non-Baits alike, the
above-mentioned
peoples
tenaciously continue
to
hold on to
their ethnic traditions and cultures.
Above all, they defiantly continue
to practice their religion, be it
Catholicism, Lutheranism, Eastern
Orthodoxy or Islam. Moslem fun-
damentalism is a greater danger to
the Communist Party of the Soviet
Union than the dangers posed by
the Polish Solidarity movement.
That is why, the Soviet Union,

Afganistan.
As for the Russian people, the·
majority in the Sovie! Union, if the
elections
were actually
free,
without the coercion of the per-
vasive network of state informers
and police control, they would vote
the Communist Party out of office.
Speaking about misconceptions
about "Russia" and the "Soviet
Union," it is Alexander Solzhcnir-
syn who makes the strongest case
in this regard. In his article
Solzhenitsyn reminds us that the
Russians have been exploited and
terrorized by Soviet Communism
lo11ger and harsher than any other
ethnic group. At issue in the
Solzhenirsyn article is that same
mistake that you assume as true
that
Russia and the Russians are
synonymous with Soviet Union,
Soviet
People
and
Soviet
Communism.

Scarborough Offers views
on journalism_ and job hunting·_
by David Schifler
WNBC-TV news anchorman
Chuck Scarborough always knew
he wanted a career in TV news.
His advice to others who want to
enter this competitive field? "While
in college, major in anything but
communications, and get involved

in practical activities like the cain- •
pus newspaper or radio station,"
he said.
He emphasized the competition,
especially in a market like New
York, and said that getting a job
there is one of the worst things that
could happen to a young journalist.
"If you start out here right out of
college you'll be a desk assistant,
which is a copy boy. Then, you
·might
move up to become a writer,
but the chances of getting on the
air are practically nil for someone
Regan to serve
on press panel
coming right out of college," he
said.

Scarborough, who holds a
BA,
majored in broadcast journalism
and minored in political science at
the U_niversity of Mississippi.
The newspap_er headline on
Chuck Scarborough's 7th floor of-
fice door reads
-"Scarborough
Fair," the title of the Simon and
Garfunkel song. His small, clut-
tered office located in the back
.of
the newsroom carries a reminder,
in the form of a poster, of when
News 4 New York was Newscenter

who has been with the station for
nine years. But there is another side
of this man who people know only
an hour.and a half a day, from his
start in news to his second wife.
Scarborough landed his first job
in Biloxi, Missisippi, on WLOX-

Grunwald was recouperating from

The producer added that today's
music is missing much of the tur-

was-some kind of tension," he
ex-
plained,

would be better.
Another problem is that the
technology today is wonderful, and
some people use technology just for
the sake of technology." •
Although Katz makes use of a
fair amount of high-tech equip-
ment in the studio, the members of

Renegade have found he is par-
ticularly concerned with the overall
product - how all the instruments
fit together
into a. cohesive
package.
"Steve is
very
demanding on the
sounds," said Renegade guitarist
Arthur Papanastasiou. "He won't
settle for things we would have
settled for in the past. He comes up
with tasty little things that we
wouldn't think of."
Papanastasiou related one in-
stan·ce where Katz wanted a
"clean" guitar sound for
·one
of
their songs. After trying several
combina·tions, Katz brought his
. worn Fender Telecaster to the next
session and suggested that the
guitarist try it. After some initial
hesitation, he did,. and it worked.
"l had no conception of what he
was after,"
said
Papanastasiou,
"but l was really happy with the·
results."
Katz agrees that producing and
recording music is a "painstaking"
process, but his career hasn't been
Frankenstein masks and wore
them. Murray just couldn't get
serious."
But rock 'n' roll has brought
Katz some sobering times too.
After Blood, Sweat and Tears was
successful,
he found himself stuck
in the middle of two ideals.
"We (B,S & T) were loved by
conservative middle America, and
at the same time we were part of
that whole ('60s) movement," he
said. "I had to decide if I wanted
to be a leftist or accept the checks
that were coming in the mail for the
hit record. A lot of people thought
we sold out."
And for Katz, the
'60s
ended
when Blood, Sweat and Tears
played at Woodstock. "I hated it,"

he said of the festival.
"It
was rain-
ing and it was boring. When you
got onstage the people looked like
wallpaper. You couldn't relate 10

Hood said priority points are given
to active members. "I encourage·

Getting money from the school
has been a problem from the start.
Since the ski club is a social club
it does not create a product like The

to Hood. "We are listed in the Ac-

last July. Lahey·was formerly vice
president for college advancement,

and the position became vacant··
when he was appointed executiv~
vice president.


Sledge added that the upper
.
levels of administration have to be
filled before the lower levels can be
advertised, because Maher anif
Cernera could conceivably be can-
didates for both of the positions
they currently occupy, and that
would create openings in lower

levels.
Of the lower levels, only the

·
fashion design/merchandising and
Computer Center positions are cur-
.
rently being recruit!!d for. The
director of alumni affairs position
has already been through the
recruitment process, and interviews
are now taking
.place.

Sledge said the college isn't hurt
by

the

turnover.
·"I.
don't· see
another alternative," she said,
"but I don't think it hurts the
college."
Lahey agreed that the lack of
permanent s_taff for administrative
positions has not hurt the college.


.
"I haven't seen any slippage in
.
terms of service," Lahey said.

"We've been able to maintain the
level of quality students are used
to. Most of the areas where we
have a vacancy, we have an assis-
tant or associate director that can
fill right in."
The executive vice president said
though, that time is an important
factor in the situation. "I don't see
any problems as long as it (the
vacancies) is for less than one year
and there is a well-qualified person
to lill in. Then the combination ,..,;11
be effective. If
it
lasts beyond one
year, then it may pose a problem."
lahev added that the large
numbe~ of vacancies is not
unusual. "When vou have an in-
stitution this size," he said, "I
think it's normal. People tend to
move on, at least in their minds. to
bigger things."

~lM.arist's home opener against
Soutbern Connecticut was marred
by penalties ~nd controversy. Most
of the controversy centered around
Southern's hotly-disputed, game-
winning goal in the final minute of
play.

With 26 seconds remaining in the
game and the score tied at four,
Marist goalie Greg Whitehead
made a save and then sat on the
puck, but it somehow ended up in
the net. After much deliberation
the referees ruled that a goal was
scored.
"It
(the puck) was under me,"
said an angry Whitehead, who
stopped 49 of Southern Connec-
ticut's 54 shots on goal. "It didn't
go in until I got up. It went in after
the whistle." Several other Marist
players also spoke of the puck
entering the net after a whistle stop-
ped play:
"The· officiating in tonight's
game was under par," said assis-
tant coach Bob Van Benschoten.
