The Office of the Attorney
General published legal notices of
the hearing in the Poughkeepsie
Journal and Taconic Newspapers,
but they were not seen by Marist
officials,. said Cernera.
Cernera added that Marist was
to have been notified of the hear-
ing directly. D .J. Calista, an
associate professor of sociology at
Marist who is one of eight faculty
members hired after Bennett dos-
ed in 1977, made arrangements
with Bernard Toomin, the assistant
attol'.ney general in the Charitable
Trust Bureau. Calsita wrote to
Toomin several times and met him
in Albany that year, he said.
Marist knew of Bennett's en-
dowment, and Calista followed
steps advised by Toomin to make
sure the college was notified, said
Cernera.
Toomin twice refused to answer
any questions concerning the case
when contacted at his New York
City office.
"We did everything we needed to
legally," said Cernera. "This is an
issue of fairness and equity, and the
merits of the Marist College case
deserve to be heard."
The new case will be heard in
Dutchess County Supreme Court.
The original ,i;ettlement was ap-
proved by st'ate Supreme Court
Justice Albert Rosenblatt.

Marist College's Division of
Science will split on July I, 1986 to
create two new academic divisions,
said Acting Vice President for
• Academic Affairs Julianne Maher.
The change reflects growth in the
computer science program that is
greater ihan other science-related
curricula, said Maher.
The first, division,
that of
Mathematics
and
Computer
Science,
will
contain
the
mathematics,
computer
mathematics and computer science
programs.
The second, the Division of
Natural and Health Sciences, will
contain the biology, chemistry,
medical technology, environmental
science, physical education and
nursing programs .
. The change follows recommen-
dations made by Science Division
Chairperson George Hooper and
the division faculty. Marist's full
facµlty voted 77 to 5 on Oct. 25,
1985 to approve the split.
Hooper
wil\
remain chairperson
of the Natural and Health Sciences
Division.
The
Division
of
Mathematics
and
Computer
Science chairperson's position is
being advt:rtised. The administra-
tion wants to fill the vacancy by Ju-
ly
1,
and a search committee_
will
begin review of applications this
we·ek, said Maher.
Hooper said he recommended
the formation of a new division
because of the number of students
enrolled in computer science pro-
grams.
"It
would seem to me that
a program that large should have
its own chairperson," he said.
There arc 486 students enrolled
in computer science programs for
the 1985-1986 school year. That is
an increase of just two students
since the 1984-1985 school year.
Maher said the change will
benefit the computer science pro-
gram. "It's going to enable the
faculty in the new division to have
a clearer sense of identity in the in-
stitution," she said. "They'll be
able
to
do more, like develop new
programs."
With computer science achieving
full divisionary status and the
growing importance of computers
·on campus, some faculty have sug-
gested Marist has lost sight of its
liberal arts heritage. Maher said she
does not agree.

Why We Ran The Story
'·.
.•.
Much of this week's front page is dedicated to the college's
finances, which we have tried to explain as completely as possible.
As most Marist students invesra great deal of time and money
in this college with limited knowledge of how their investment
is handled, we think we have offered pertinent insights.
As part of this financial picture, we have introduced informa-
tion on top administrative salaries.
Where possible, we did not idenify the names and positions of
those executives because we respect their right to privacy.
By not using names, we can focus on the salary and the rele-
vant comparisons provided, without focusing on the person. This
has been our intent all along.
'
·A
Cut To·The Heart
The figures were a little different, but the underlying concept
was the same when President Reagan presented his $994 billion
proposed federal budget last week -
mort: money for defense
toward a "safe" America and less money for education toward
an intelligent Amerka.
Under the proposed spending plan, college students would again
be the big losers with $2.5 billion in education cuts. Twenty per-
cent of students now receiving grants or loans would be ineligi-
ble for aid. Students borrowing money would pay interest while
in school. Interest rates would·climb. Total student aid would be
cut from $7 .8 billion to $6. l billion.
To put that in perspective, it means $2 of every $3 cut from
the education budget would come from college students.
Reagan administration officials
in
the past have stated that any
person in the United States who wants an education badly enough

Raynis. As for the perfect gift, he

"You don't have to have a

Esposito.

Hello Cards in the South Hills

Hours have been spent in stores
looking for that right card compos-

.

• Miller's room was burglarized on
Jan.
28,
between
12
noon ·and
2:30
• p;m., according to Joe Waters,
director of security. As a· result,
Miller requested that.a bolt be put
o_n her door, but the Housing Of-
fice said -that the decision was up
to security. Security said that it.was
. up to the Housing Office.
,A Town of Poughkeepsie police
officer, who was called in to in-
vestigate, suggested that a metal
plate be installed near the lock to
lessen the chance of further intru-
sions, Miller said. Steve Sansola,
director of housing, told Miller that
such a request had to go in through
maintenance.
According
to
Miller,
maintenance said that the request
would go on their list, but they did
not know when the job would be
done.
·u
was done two days later, after
a second break-in.
"It took a second break-in for
them to do anything," Miller said.
During the first break-in, Miller
h~d a pair of gold post earrings
• sto.:n from her desk top: Judith
Mogavero, Miller's roommate, also
had several items missing, which-in-
• eluded a pair of diamond earrings
and one pair of pearl earrings that
were taken from the top of the·
stereo. Other items were missing
from Mogavero's pocketbook,
which was located in the bottom
drawer of her desk. They included:
$15 in cash, a JC Penney credit
card, a New York State driver's
license and a Marist identification
card.
According to Miller, security
promptly answered her call on the
same day at 4 j).m., took down all
the information, and said that not
much could be done.
There are no suspects, Waters
said,
,
According to Waters, it is dif-
ficult to find suspects since Marist
is an open campus and crimes can
be committed on the property by
students or outside people. Also,
security works primarily outside of
the dorms, and enters only .when
called in by a resident director, resi-
dent assistant or a student, he said.
According to Miller, town police
• also said that nothing much could
be done and that the lock did not
appear to be broken into.
No fingerprints were taken dur-
ing the investigation, Miller said.
When something on campus is
reported stolen, the police are
automatically called in for an in-
vestigation,
Waters said. All
allegedly stolen items are then put
in a computer file at police head-
quarters in the e','.ent that they turn
up at a later date.
However, Miller was not too op-
timistic with this information and
discouraged by the attitudes of
Marist security and the Poughkeep-
sie police.

"I was pretty mad that they
acted like it was no big deal," she
said.
On the night of the second
break-in, Miller returned to find
the stereo blaring and her bedroom
door wide open, after she had lock-
ed the door. Miller said that she
thought her roommate had left the
stereo on, but when Mogavera
came home that evening, she said
that she had been out all day.
Miller called Sansola about the
incident the next morning, and the
plates were finally put on that
afternoon.
"If
it wasn't for Steve Sanso la,"
she said, "nothing would have been
done."

he wished it was easier so he could

White said that baseball is a
game
everybody
can
play,
~everybody can understand and in
which everybody can be a manager.
It's true. Ask Phil Rizzuto; he's ·
been managing the Yankees from
the booth for years.

MacPhail and Fishel both said
they wished for more concentration
on the action and less on the pro-
blems. But the problems were what
dominated
the talk. Positive
coverage seems
t9
be declining-just
read the paper and watch the news.
• Pittsburgh has become home to
drug trials for several professional
baseball players and those who
«deal" with them. And basketball
and football have similiar troubles.
Even the Patriots, after the Super
Bowl, agreed to have been playing
in the snow.
But troubles will be present as
long as the salaries remain high
enough to support drug habits. Do
you think a professional badmin-
ton player could maintain a
$10,000-a-month cocaine habit?
No way; he'll never earn that much
in a 20-year career.
One panelist summed it up with
clarity and brevity. Mccarver
related his theory of baseball hap-
. piness. He
said
that happiness and
responsibilty goes down as the
salary goes up.
Lupica added that for what
baseball players are earning, they
should be whistling at any position
the manager puts them· at, not
griping.
But the good points of the sport
were also looked into at the request
of the crowd. The people wanted
to
hear the old-time good news of
baseball, and the fun of it all.
Overall,
the audience
and
panelists agreed that baseball is the
greatest game and whoever made
the home-to-first distance of 90 feet
was one smart person.
Each speaker, one after another,
gave his insights as to why the sport
of baseball is the greatest.
But again it was Mccarver who
turned the feelings of all present in-
to poetry. He said that baseball is
as close to heaven as you can get.
Well, I've never been to heaven but
I have played ball my whole life,
and I agree. But I don't think you
need· drugs, $6.8 million or labor
negotiations to get the heavenly
feeling playing baseball gives you. .

The track· team may not be
ready for the nationals, but it
has developed a new identity as
a viable competitor at its own
level.
"The last couple of weeks
they've acted as a team with a
sense of purpose," said Steve
Lurie, Marist track coach. "The
group has matured a lot."
Last year the team had
"limited"
competitiveness,
since it was only able
to
compete
in the two-mile relay. This year -
the team has had genera}-, all-
around competitiveness.
Also last week, Robert Morris
beat Marist even though the
women played a tough game.
Stempsey took home 21 points and
14 rebounds. Wilmer scored 20
points and Ekambi shot in 13.
Robert Morris won 82-69.

cides with that of the program.

development of the program in
terms of greater respect and
growth in the number of
athletes on the team.
"It may not be the best
team," he said, "but it's a team
that has taken a step in the right
direction. We graduated from
being a van team to a bus
team."
The individual athlete has not
been lost in the shuffle, said
Lurie.
"We put our standard to
things," he said, "and
if
a stu-
dent isn't doing well, we won't
let him compete."

A
spokesman for MCTV said
they had the tape in their posses-
sion once again as of Feb. 7.
Colony Sports, channel 10 in
Poughkeepsie, was also taping the
event when the melce broke out. Its
tape, however, does not include the
fight because of air time for
commercials.
The incident, which started bet-
ween Marist's Ron McCants and
Wagner's Dave Smolka, inv9lved

both teams. Andre Van Drost of
Waimer was taken to St. Francis
afte~ the fight. He ,....-as

has played in Wagner's games since
that time.
The team practices Monday
through Thursday from 7 a.m. to
8:30 a.m. in the Mccann Center.
After the cuts are made, the team
will play challenge matches for the
number one through six slots,
Breen said. Also, it will develop
doubles teams. Marist plays six
singles and three doubles in a

: The team's biggest obstacle,
Breen said, is that it needs a "true
number· one player. ".The team is
good at the four, ·five and six posi-
tions; but it needs a standout at the
number one slot, Breen said.
• Since Lurie began coaching
the team three years ago, the at-
mosphere has changed from
that of a country club to an in-
tercollegiate team.
Tom Crosier, a Marist. stu-
dent, can attest to this. At one
meet, the former track coach
forgot to enter him into an
. event. He has refused to coma
pete ever since.

"Those mistakes seem to be
in
the past," Lurie said. "The
team has taken on a new dimen-
sion and attitude."
Lurie said that he sees the

According to Lurie, the only
irresolvable problem is that the
team is invisible. Track com-
petitions are not held on cam-
pus, so the only exposure the
teain gets is through the school
media, which are overshadow-
ed by Marist's more competitive
sports.
"We have a long way to go
-
up," he said. "It will be at
least two years before the team
is where he wants it to be."
