Dispute de_epens
over McCann 'Auditorium'
by Bill DeGennaro
The controversy over fire s~fety
at the McCann Center is apparently
not over.
District Deputy Chief Richard L.
Dormeyer said the Fairview Fire
Department has asked the New
York State Division of Codes En-
forcement, Albany, for a classifica-
tion and ruling on Town of
Poughkeepsie Building Inspector
Arthur J. LaPan's decision allow-
ing 4270 people to · occupy the

figured 1800 people could occupy
the building.
For the tournament, however,
LaPan reclassified the building as
an auditorium, and rasied the oc-
cupancy limit to 4270.
"The fire inspector went up
there to measure the building and
give me some figures," LaPan said,
"and he figured 1800 persons
capacity. I reviewed his findings
and I did not agree."
LaPan said he is calling the
Mccann Center an auditorium,
which under building codes allots
seven square feet for each person.
Under the heading of Gymnasium
in the building codes, each person
is allotted 15 square feet, LaPan
said.
Under building codes, for each
600 people in excess of 1800, one
additional fire exit is needed, accor-
ding to Murphy. The difference
between Murphy's recommenda-
tion and LaPan's ruling, 2470,
would require four additional fire
exits, Murphy said.

Hear our side
More arrests are likely
Two Marist freshmen have been
arrested for the burglaries of three
rooms in Sheahan Hall and more
arrests in connection with the same
burglaries are expected, according
to Detective James Hamburger of
the Town of Poughkeepsie Police.
Hamburger and Detective John
Wagner arrested Steven Merenda,
18, of Statan Island, and John
Murray, 19, of Rosedale, N.Y., on
March 11 after an investigation
conducted by Marist Security and
the Town of Poughkeepsie Police.
The two students are accused of
breaking into room 111 of Sheahan
on Feb. 15 and rooms 212 and 213
of Sheahan on March 1. Items of
clothing were stolen from • the
rooms, according to Hamburger.
"One would be a lookout,
pretending to be on the telephone,"
Hamburger said, "while the other
entered the room."
The
two
students
have
withdrawn
completely
from
Marist, according to Peter Amato,
assistant dean of student affairs.
Wagner and Merenda are charg-
ed with burglary, second degree
petit larceny and fourth degree con-
spiracy, according to Hamburger.
Their ,;ase is pending April I
before Judge Paul Sullivan in the

Lavin recalled Kayiira's depar-

Presidency and the Press: From

Marist College Theater on Thurs-
day, April
9
at
7
p.m.
The presentation will be follow-
ed by a question and answer period
and a faculty reception later in the
evening.
Thomas,
a
reporter
in
Washington, D.C. for over 40
years, has been covering White
House affairs for over half of that
time.
A graduate from Wayne State
University in Detroit, Thomas
worked for a year as a copy girl on
the now defunct "Washington Dai-
ly News'' before she joined UPI in
1943.
For 12 years, Thomas wrote
radio news and later had several
assignments covering the federal
government before moving to the
UPI's White House news staff in
1961, due to her outstanding
coverage of President-elect John F.
Kennedy in the· 1960 presidential
election.
In
1959-60,
Thomas served as
President of the Women's National
Press
Club,,.
now
known as the
Washington Press Club, and was
also the first woman officer of the
White
House Correspondents
Association and its first woman
president in 1975-76.
Also in 1975, Thomas became
the first female member in the
90-year history of the Gridiron
Club, a journalists' organization.
Thomas has received eight
honorary doctorate degrees, and
numerous awards including the
Matrix Award from the Women in
Communications, the Headliners
Award from the Headline Club in
Austin, TX, the DeWitt Reddick
Journalism
Award from the
University of Texas, and the
Fourth Estate Award from the Na-
tional Press Club.
Thomas was named "Newspaper
Woman of Washington" in 1968
by the American Newspaper
Women's Club, "Woman of the
Year" in communications by the
"Ladies Home Journal" in 1975,
and in 1976 was named one of the
25
most influential women in
America today by "The World
Almanac."
Another of her accomplishments
was a book called "Dateline: White
House," published in
1975,
which
she received praise for her in-depth
look at the presidents, from Ken-
nedy to Ford, and their families.
During
the years Thomas
covered
Kennedy's ·presidency; she
became the first woman to close a

from Hell," "St. Elsewhere," and
"The Emperor's New Clothes."
His versatility seems endless - he
and wife Barbara Dana have also

Acting not his only forte, Arkin
has directed projects for all media.
His stage directing began with the
much acclaimed "Eh?," introduc-
ing Dustin Hoffman. He produc-
ed plays on and off Broadway, and
also wrote and directed two short
films entitled "T.G.I.F."
and
"People Soup," the latter receiv-
ing an Oscar nomination for Best
Short Subject.
For television, he directed an

Freshman is lone candidate for top
office; lack of interest remains
by Raeann Favata
Freshman· Jeff Ferony, the un-
contested candidate for student
body president, has had difficulty
finding a running mate, and the
elections are a week away.
Ferony has until April 4, .the end
of the active campaign, to find a
vice president. 1f he is unable to
find one, the Council of Student
Leaders will have to appoint one,
according to Jill Anderson, elec-
tions commissioner. The president
and vice president of the student
body run together as a team.
The race for College Union -
Board President is the only CSL
race to be contested this year.
In an effort to increase student
voting this year, student govern-
ment and class office elections will
be held together on April
8, 9
and
IO,
according to Anderson.
Anderson said voter turnout was
expected to be low this year because
four of the five student government
offices will run uncontested. By
combining the class office elec-
tions, where there are more con-
tested races, Anderson said she ex-
pects a better voting turnout.
Candidates running for the other
CSL positions are: freshman Royal
Ricci, commuter union president;
junior Cathy Cuccia, student
academic president; sophomore
Jack Lake, resident student coun-
cil president; and junior Frank
Doldo and junior Katherine Parry,
college union board president.
"Hopefully there will be more
people voting, especially in the
sophomore class where there are
two positions with more than one
person running," said Anderson,
a junior majoring in English.
According to Student Body
President Peter Prucnel, the low
voter turnout last year was due to
a lack of competition.
"Last year, my race was the on-
ly one that was contested," said
Prucnel, who defeated Christopher
Lenzy in a vote of 249 to 70. "The
number of people voting is direct-
ly proportional to the number of
people running."
Both Doldo and Parry said they
prefer having an opponent.
"I
like
the competition," said Doldo.
"It
makes me want to try harder."
Assistant Dean of Student Af-
fairs Deborah Bell agrees that an
increase in the number of students
running will increase the amount of
students voting.
"Its a complete cycle," said Bell.
"If two or three well-qualified peo-
ple were running for the same posi-
tion, there would be a lot more
people voting."
Liquor rules don't wash for frosh
by Annie Breslin
It is Saturday night on the South
end of Marist College - the stom-
ping ground for the freshman class.
In one of the three freshman
dorms, a handful of students
gather in a stuffy, darkened room,
huddled around pitchers of draft
beer. Fifty-yards away, in the
cafeteria, the freshman semi-
formal hosts an estimated 40
students.
"There's no way they can stop
us from drinking," one of the non-
conformists said the next day.
"The alcohol policy here is
ridiculous
and
basically
ineffective."
Marist's policy, which prohibits
alcoholic beverages in freshman
dorms, is often a CO!flplaint of
members of the class of 1990.
Many of the freshmen interview•
ed said they hold the resident
assistants responsible for their
discontent with social activities at
Marist.
"They're totally wallowing in
this authority deal," said one
Marian Hall resident, who asked
not to be identified.
Another freshman said his RA
often accompanies him to local
bars and then returns to write
students up for being drunk on
campus.
Or hers complained of being writ-
ten up because they were in a room
with empty beer bottles.
"I think we should only be in
trouble if our drinking causes other
problems," said Dave Esser, a Leo
resident from Huntington,
N.Y.
Kathleen Flynn, a first-year
residence director for Sheahan and
Marian Halls, denied that RA's like
to reprimand students.
"RAs
dislike that aspect of the
job," Flynn said. "But, if an RA
turns his back on something, he's
risking his own job."
"If
you run down the hall nak-
ed, then you should be written up,''
Esser said. Nearby lay:ed Esser's
friend, unconscious, after a night
of drinking.
One member of the group,
recovering from an illegal keg par-
ty on Saturday night, expressed
sympathy for RAs.
"We wouldn't hate an RA for
writing us up if we were causing a
problem,'' she said. "But we would
if she deliberately set out to find us
-
like our old RA did."
Flynn, however, said RAs try to
help freshmen. "We've seen a lot
of freshmen who just can't handle
their liquor," she said.
Other freshmen passed up the
semi-formal for off-campus keg
parties. They complained that the
drinking policy is putting students
in danger.
"They're telling us to drink and
drive," said Claire Lynch.
Some people interviewed said a
"clo5ed-door" alcohol policy -
one which permits students to drink
quietly in their own rooms -
would be the fairest solution.
"The rule should be 'If you're
able to get it, you can have it',''
said Kevin Martin, a Sheahan resi-
dent majoring in history.
Jackie Kuntz, of Huntington,
N.Y., agreed. "At least then we
would pass out in our rooms and
not at the wheel," she said.
Others said the policy treats
students like children.
"You have more freedom at
home than you do at college, said
Lisa Haag, a resident of Leo Hall.
"You're supposed to go to college
to be free from your parents."
One freshman said the conse-
quences of being caught drinking
are too severe. "The one thing
wrong with this school is they want
to throw everyone out," one said.
"They've wanted me out since
October."

Spring Break
by Linda Smith
Spring Break. The sights are the
same ... guys in jams, girls in
bikinis, faces reddened from sun-
burn. But this time the scene isn't
Fort Lauderdale or the Bahamas.
It's Colorado.
In the past 10 years, Colorado
has become one of the more
popular Spring Break retreats for
college students from the West.
Thousands flock to the slopes of
Vail to catch the best of spring ski-
ing and partying.
On the slopes, the proper attire
is shorts, according to Dave Han-
son, University of Nebraska senior.
"It's way cool to be skiing through
all this powder in nothing but your
jams," he said.
Normal daily temperatures for
the Vail area range from 40 to 65
degrees in March, making for ideal
skiing conditions. A good snowfall
overnight can usually result in six
or more inches of fresh powder
snow in the morning.
•
"Skiing in powder is such a dif-
ferent experience,"
said Mora
Nelen, a Marist student from South
Hadley, Mass., who was recently in
Vail. "Sometimes the snow is so
deep that you can't even see your
skis."

CUB polls
student body
The College Union Board is con-
ducting an opinion survey this week
and next to find out how students
feel about campus programming.
Survey tables will be set up at
various locations, including the
cafeteria, Donnelly and Marist
East.
The four-page survey is design-
ed to help CUB select performers,
lecturers and films and plan social
events for next year, according to
Linda Imhof, the president of
CUB.
Imhof also said CUB is looking
for new members, both for this
year and next. Interested students
can sign up in the student govern-
ment office in Campus Center.
CUB is the major programming
organization on campus and is
funded by the student activity fee.
Marist alumni
choose leader
Jack Eberth, class of '69, has
been elected president of the Marist
Alumni Association.
Eberth, a resident of Verbank,
N. Y., is employed at Kingston IBM
as a product planning manager.
Eberth received a degree in
English from Marist and later earn-
ed his M.B.A. at Central Michigan
University. He is a Navy veteran.
He has been a member of the
alumni association's
executive
board since 1984 and became
secretary of the board in 1986.
The association
has 9,000
members and maintains chapters in
the Hudson Valley, New York Ci-
ty, Boston, Albany. Philadelphia
and Florida.
Kerrigan was taken to Princess
Margaret Hospital in Nassau,
Bahamas, and placed in the inten-
sive care unit.
"The beaches are very unsafe.
There arc no lifeguards or buoys to
keep the boats away," said Wood.

Popular drink names have
also
been translated to fit into the
skiers' language. For instance, "sex
on the beach" is known as "sex on

Skiers talk in terms of "catching
some air" off ski jumps, or "jam-

mogul field. Snowboarding is also
a popular mountain sport and
brings in a large following of
"mountain surfers."

Flexibility is key in special programs for adults
by Susan Erikson
When Carmen Lyon decided to
enroll in college last year, she
planned to major in psychology.
But before she began classes, she
found a more interesting major -
the integrative major.
The integrative major is a degree
program offered to non-traditional
students through the School of
Adult Education allowing the stu-
dent to design his own program
with up to five major courses of
study. He will graduate with a B.A.
or B.S., depending on the number
of liberal arts courses the student
takes.
In the integrative major, the stu-
dent, with the help of a faculty ad-
visor, designs a program that com-
bines courses from different majors
within his personal fields of
interest.
Lyon, 38, a freshman, said that
she did
not
want to take a lot of
courses that didn't interest her. In
the integrative major, "I can pur-
sue things that really interest me."
According to Julianne Maher,
dean of the School of Adult Educa-
tion, the integrative major is meant
to tie student's educational goals
and life experiences together.
The integrative major program
began in reaction to general studies
degree program offered to adult
students in the 1960s and 70s.
These programs are still offered at
many campuses of the State
University of New York, Maher
said.
In general studies programs,
adults can receive a Bachelor of
Arts or a Bachelor of Science
degree following a plan laid out by
the institution. The student does
not choose a major.
In the early 1980s, Marist receiv-
ed Title Ill funding from the
federal government to develop
degree programs within the School
of Adult Education.
"The evening courses gave
adults choices, but we lacked a pro-
gram with flexibility," Maher said.
She said she felt Marist needed
something to respond to the special
interests adults develop over the
course of their careers and lives.
In January 1981, Maher and a
faculty committee which included
Louis
Zuccarello,
Marjorie
Schratz, Greg Kilgariff, Nadine
Foley, Robert Lewis and John
Ritschdorff, met to design an inter-
disciplinary program for adult
students.
Students in the integrative major
must complete a total of 45 credit
hours in as many as five concentra-
tions. Twenty-one of those hours
must be in upper level courses.
They must take at least nine credits
in each concentration, but the
school of adult education recom-
mends the student limit his choice
of majors to three or four.
Many colleges have inter-
disciplinary degree programs,
Maher said. What makes Marist's
unique is the adult core, a series of
seminars designed to show the stu-
dent the perspectives of the dif-
ferent academic disciplines and the
themes that run through them.
Similar to graduate level courses,
the seminars are open only to adult
students. These students have more
knowledge of the world and are
more curious about it than the
traditional student, Maher said.
The seminars are considered
such an integral part of the pro-
gram the student must complete
one before they are enrolled in the
integrative major.
To plan their program, students
must enroll in "Personal History
and Educational
Experience"
before they are admitted to the pro-
gram. In this course the student
looks back on his life and educa-
tion and decides what his educa-
tional
goals are.
With this
knowledge he can make his study
plan and write the rationale for his
degree program.
The study plan and rationale are
reviewed after the student has com-
pleted 30, 60 and 90 credits and can
be changed, with faculty approval,
if the student finds his curriculum
is not meeting his goals.
The seminars give the student a
framework to look at himself, his
values and his relationship to
everything in the world, Lyon said.
"I'm writing a paper for "Self,
Society and Institutions" right now
on what it means to be human."
Lyon agrees that the seminars
are what make the program special.
She finds them challenging, but
they are not for everyone.
"The seminars alone can kill
you," she said. In "Self, Story and
Culture," the students were assign-
ed to read eight books, to watch

Way
back when
Perhaps it's time to take a crash course in "Marist History"
-
before a decision about the nursing program is made.
Remember the mid-l 970s?
Whatever happened to the dedication and commitment some
current administrators have shown in the past - a spirit that saw
Marist through some difficult days?
Now take a look at the current situation.
Five years ago, when the nursing program began, it most like-
ly seemed like an exciting new frontier for a growing college to
explore. With the computer facilities available to the college, the
possibilities of the program probably seemed endless. And the
federal grant to help get the program off its feet probably didn't
seem too bad either.
Only now, all of the great ideas don't seem too great to
everybody anymore. The government grant is gone, enrollment
in the program is lower than had been anticipated, and the fact
is, Marist would have to put a lot of money into a program that
may not see a bright future for a while.
Can history be forgotten so fast? In the mid-1970s Marist Col-
lege was on shaky ground -
in debt and enrollment low.
But a firm commitment to hard work and dedication created
a spirit that was needed to see a good thing through.
If Marist College, as a whole, could make the recovery it has,
the nursing program deserves the same shot at a future. Those
that decided to "go" with what may have been called the "long

To do anything else would be to undercut the values and ideals
the college claims to emphasize. It would be an injustice to all
those who brought Marist to the point it is today.

by Julia E. Murray
Much as though we all love to
joke (moan, complain and sigh)
about it, there was something
about Marist which initially drew
all of us here, and kept some of us
around for the duration. Maybe it
was the fresh breeze drifting up
from the river, or the sight of hap-
py students relaxing in the sunshine
(while recovering from the nervous
breakdown induced by Add/Drop)
or the picturesque buildings on
campus (and the equally charming
3-foot-high
speed
bumps).
Whatever it was, you're here now
and you should try to look at the
positive aspects of Marist rather
than forever worrying about tiny
imperfections (like the mountain of
rubble by the townhouses).
.
Concentrate, for instance, on the
wonderful academic opporturiity
offered to you at Marist. Think of
all the classes you've enjoyed dur-
ing your time here whether you
wanted to take them or not.
(Sometimes registration can pro-
vide some marvelous surprises.)
Remember all of the professors
you've felt privileged to be taught
by, even
if
half ofthem weren't the
teachers you wanted. (Aren't TBAs
great'?) Don't think about the
8: 15s, or the Friday classes (though
now the two will be combined for
maximum stress potential) and
block the Add/Drop line from
. your mind (shock therapy does
wonders).

All right, if you can't be positive
about the • academic aspect of

As if Lowell Thomas wasn't
enough, what about that spiffy new
wall they're building over by the
Gartland Commons (code name:
Operation Berlin Wall)? Is that
great or what? (Don't answer that.)
Speaking
of
"or what," how
about the library? Where else can
you find a copy of "Plato's
Republic," signed by the author?
And the microfilm machines are
absolutely out of this world. (I just
wish they'd return to earth disguis-
ed as functioning machines.) Every
time I go in the building I get the
shivers (particularly if I stand under

Remembering Andrew Kayiira
by Robert G. Saunders
.
!his is not an amusing story and
1t 1s not a pretty one.
-It is a story about life and
-
un-
fortunately - about death. It is a
Viewpoint which I never imagined
myself writing, and as I write my
pen becomes more and more full of
sorrow.
Though the majority of students
at M;uist now didn't know Dr.
Kayiira, he was and still is a part
of Marist College, and his memory'
will linger for many years to come.
A tragedy has occurred. The
tragedy I write about is that of the
taking of a human life in cold
blood. Dr. Lutakome Andrew
Kayiira, a Marist professor of
criminal justice on leave, was shot
dead shortly after being released
from prison last month in Uganda.
The exact day or time of day
really does not matter. The facts re-
main the same: it was a senseless
killing of an intelligent man who
wanted nothing more than to bring
peace to his home country of
Uganda.
I knew Dr. Kayiira while he
taught at Marist. Not only was he
a professor of mine, my academic
advisor-, and an advisor to the
Criminal Justice Club, he was also
my friend.
There are so many thoughts rac-
ing in my head and so many
memories of Dr. Kayiira, that I
find this difficult to write. I was so
relieved when I learned that he was
released from prison - to be dealt
this blow is disheartening.
I think back to the times when
he and I used to talk about the
fishing expeditions that we were
supposed to go on, but never did.
It's one of those things you never
get around to doing, and by the
time you realize, it's too late.
I remember the knowledge in his
lectures and the acceptance of ideas
that were presented to him by his
students. His methods of sharing
experiences and insight into the
world of criminal justice put the
If anyone were
to bring peace to
Uganda, it would
have been Dr.
Kayiira.
student at ease and implanted a
willingness to learn more.
Outside of the classroom, I
remember that laugh of his and the
willingness ·to sit down with· a stu-
dent and talk on any topic -
whether it be fishing stories or the
current state of the criminal justice
system in the United States.
He would relate stories to us
about Uganda with a gleam in his
eye which deepened one's belief
that He wanted nothing more than
to return to Uganda and help. He
would say, "Someday, someday."
When Dr. Kayiira did return to
Uganda, I was happy for him and
wished him nothing but the best. l
remember that he had gone over
first, without his family, and was
going to return here later to bring
his family with him when more
order was brought to Uganda.
If anyone were to bring peace to
Uganda, it would have been
Dr.
Kayiira. He was a man who was a
common link between
the
many
rival tribes there.
When Dr. Kayiira was first ar-
rested, I was shocked. There were
reports of his attempting to over-
throw the government and reports
about transporting an illegal cache
of weapons. There was talk of
•
death as punishment if he were to
be. found guilty after a trial.
But there was no trial. Dr.
Kayiira was not found guilty, and
the punishment was carried out
without due process.
His methods of
sharing
experi-
ences and insight
implanted a will-.
ingness to learn
more.
When I heard of Dr. Kayiira's
release from prison, l was excited.
All that many people had worked
for seemed to be coming true. I had
hoped to see Dr. Kayiira before
graduation, and the idea of sug-
gesting him as a commencement
speaker came to mind.
Dr. Kayiira was not a selfish
man, and I cannot believe he was
imprisoned in the first place on
charges of attempting to overthrow
the newly formed government of
·Yoweri Museveni.
We cannot forget Dr. Kayiira's
wife and six children in their time
of suffering. The times ahead will
be rougher than they already are,
and they need our help.
There have been many people
who have helped, and thanks to
them someone will be held respon-
sible for this crime. We must let our
government representatives know
that we demand to know the truth
about the incident. We have come
together before as a community,
and we now must come together
once again to gain information.
To close this story, I would like
to quote from a letter sent by the
Criminal Justice Club to Amnesty
International on behalf of Dr.
Kayiira. I believe it sums up many
people's feelings about Dr. Kayiira
and expresses how much he will be
missed: "A man of Dr. Kayiira's
intelligence has much to offer the
world, and to close off this viable
source
would be a terrible
mistake... Between him and his
students there was mutual respect,
a respect that impels us to write to
you for help."
Dr. Kayiira will be missed, and
not forgotten.
Robert G. Saunders is a senior
majoring in Criminal Justice.
Where do
we
go from here?
·•-•In search of a
·new
honors program
by Bro. Joe Belanger
The Circle's concern (Feb. 26)
about the Science of Man Program
was most heartening. Several peo-
ple have worked
very
hard over the
years to try to give students the best
for their money. Hopefully, some
substitute program will continue to
challenge the best.
It is impossible, however, to
"save the best parts." Dr. Xavier
Ryan, founder and director of
Science of Man from
J
973 up to his
return to his native New Zealand
in 1982, was unique.
Not only was he a brilliant
teacher, as few are - the Carnegie
Foundation honored him as a one
of the outstanding teachers in
America -
but he put that
brilliance unstintingly at the service
of students, 24-hours-a-day, seven-
days-a-week. Some 250 graduates
of his program will attest to that.
We are not all equal.
His departure signaled the end of
the Science of Man as it had been.
Unfortunately,
Xavier was an
_almost
one-man operation. Struc-
ture was not really needed so long
as he was around; when he left the
program disintegrated.
It would be inaccurate, though,
to believe that Xavier's departure
was the only reason for the pro-
gram's demise; I believe it is also
the changing
student
body.
Secretary of Education William
Bennett is wrong when he accuses
colleges of ripping students off.
Students today simply do not want
their money's worth of education.
The Science of Man honors pro-
gram declined by some 60 percent
since 1982, and the Marist Abroad
Programs have lost some 25 per-
cent of their participants. This,
despite an increase of students
from 1700 in
J
980 to 2900 in
J
986!
Why? Without a doubt, one of
the main causes is the students un-
willingness (inability?) today to
grapple with the uncertain, the
unknown, the painful. Too many
students no longer want to think;
they just want to do -
or, most
often, do not. Leave their familiar
surroundings and venture abroad?
•
Never! Take literature, natural
science or foreign language classes?
Never! Go beyond the pain bar-
rier? Never!
This is typical of adolescence.
Even more than ten years ago,
social philosophers like Erwin
Laszlo (in "A System's View of the
World'") and Edgar Morin (in
"The Nature of Nature") had
noted a progressive "foetalization"
or "juvenilization" of humankind,
not just "graying."
New Friday classes:
punitive treatment?
by Ken Hommel
In a recent issue of The Circle,
Peter Amato, assistant dean of
students was quoted as saying that
new Friday classes have been add-
ed to the fall 1987 class schedule to
deter "academic and disciplinary
problems caused by three-day
weekends."
I can't help but wonder if any
disadvantages to the transition
from
Tuesday-Thursday
to
Tuesday-Friday
_
classes were
pondered before the changes were
suddenly announced. Not to say
that the transition
is earth-
shattering, but I still would like to
play the devil's advocate.
I enjoy the convenience of get·
ting a week's work done in four
days and having Friday as a
breather.
Does
this indicate that I
have a poor routine? Regardless of
one's disciplinary problems, I think
a student benefits from having his
or her class time less spread-out
during the week. It can allow more
concentrated study since there
aren't as many gaps between
classes.
I can see why the administration
prefers the traditional five~day
week, but this isn't high school for
us anymore. Back then, classes
lasted eight hours every day. Now
we only have 80 minutes of class
twice a week. You can start to lose
touch when a class becomes a place
where you "drop in" every few
days.
Speaking of high school treat-
ment, I also recall the college's em-
phasis on social experiences outside
of class that will "help us
grow."
I'm not condoning anything that
would result in disciplinary pro-
blems
•
or cause "trouble
on
campus."
And certainly, if the new Friday
_
classes are scheduled for 8: 15 and
9:50, not many students will lose
sleep by going out on Thursdays
nights.
I think we will see greater
absenteeism. An observation of a
colorful Marist professor comes to
mind: "The Marist student's
weekend begins on Wednesday
night and ends the following
Wednesday rooming." Perhaps ex-
aggerated, such a comment would
indicate that one Friday morning
class - if the student even bothers
to register for it -
would hardly
be an obstacle.
And what about the faculty?
Don't many teachers prepare for

There are advantages to youth:
creativity, friendliness; but there
are also disadvantages: irrespon-
sibility, inconsistency. Though just
as bright and just as good as
students in the past, current college
students are "delayed." They are
still wrapped up primarily in
themselves; they have not reached
William James' stage of maturity
-
that of deep consciousness of
social relationships; they cannot
•
"put it all together" yet.
Parents and teachers must help
youth to mature through challenge
and responsibility. But that is more
and more a burn-out situation.
What the college will substitute
for the Science of Man is presently
being debated. Final decisions must
be made with the sole good of the
student at heart. Not primarily col-

Xavier is gone, but Marist does
have several great teachers among
the old and the new. Hopefully
these faculty scholars will be
designated to lead student scholars
to new heights.
In the
"Brihandaranyaka
Upanishad," the great teacher,
Yaknavalkya says, "The path of

subtle. And I myself am walking

Page 8 - THE CIRCLE· April 2, 1987
by Kieran Alex Murphy
I got a letter from an associate
or mine in Iowa, pertaining to
some or my writing which I had
sent for literary
appraisal.
Most of
the
reply
went like this: "You don't
seem to know what you want to
write about. Of course I unders-
tand you are not going to churn out
a sequel to "War and Peace," but
you are so damned self-absorbed in
your middle-class sensibility that
you cannot get at any essence of
what literature is all about. Nobody
cares about the angst you shared
with Beaver and Wally Cleaver.
You have to understand that living
in the egg carton or suburbia was
a curse. You must experience truth·
and real living. You can't get by on
just being somewhat clever." Arter
I read the letter l said, "Oh yeah,"
out loud to myself but I'm not sure
what I meant by it.
The sting of this critique was
enough to get me acting on im-
pulse. It's like when I was younger,
the antagonism or a dare would
always give me a singularity of pur-
pose. My brother would hand me
a stone with the perfect shape and
weight for a good toss and say,
"You
see that telephone pole right
in front of that fine china shop -
I bet you can't hit it with this
rock."
No
/(!Olin':
Here's how
it started
by Keli A. Dougherty
It has been called "a holiday of
the mind, not of the state," and
now it's over with its victims vow-
ing revenge next year.
Everybody enjoys April Fool's·
Day
just
as
long
as
they
aren't the
"April Fool." But is it just an
American custom, or docs it have
"roots?"
According to "The American
Book of Days" April Fool's Day
(also known as All Fool's Day) has
been a popular day to play jokes
on unsuspecting people since the
17th century. It takes its name from
a tradition among the English,
Scots, and French, and was
brought to America by these
nationalities.
The holiday may have become
customary
in France. after the
calendar was changed in 1564 by
Charles IX to make Jan. I the first
,day
of the year. King Philip 11 of
Spain had recently made Jan. I the
New Year.
In France, during the Middle
Ages, March 25 was the New Year ..
Medieval festivals were celebrated
'for
seven days following the
festival day. The eight day period
was known as an octave, and the
New Year's octave ended on April
].
On that
·day
the French would
visit their friends and give gifts.
After the calendar change, it took
several years for people to get us-
ed to the new date. Sharp witted
people would fool more forgetful
friends by giving mock gifts.
In France a joke is known as an
"April Fish." The name may have
something to do either with the sun
leaving the Zodiac sign of the fish
(Pisces) on April 1 or that April
fish are supposedly
easy
to catch.
Today,
in France,
friends
sometimes send each other unsign-
ed
cards
with pictures of fish, and
confectioners display chocolate fish
in their windows.
In England and the British col-
onies. March 25 remained New
Year's until 1751-1752, and in
Scotland until 1600, where a
similar
custom was practiced.
In some countries it is traditional
to call the prankster the April Fool
if he hasn't played his joke before
noon, having tried his tricks too
late.
-Travel light
Part One
"Oh yeah."
So, with everything to prove to
my well-meaning -
but unforgiv-
ing critic -
l goaded myself into
making a pilgrimage to Iowa. Dur-
ing this sacred journey of art l
would soak up all the humanity
and experience necessary for the
essence or literature.
l emptied my knapsack or half
a semester's debris and packed
Kerouac's "On The Road," some
clean socks, a sterno and a har-
monica. I don't know how to play
the harmonica (or mouth harp as
the hepcats or the beat generation
would refer to it), but lugging a
French horn from here to the Iowa
state line doesn't have that Woodie
Gurthic imagery to it.
Day 1.
I stopped at
a
poorly
.
heated diner this morning about 20
miles from the Hudson on a small
road just off the Taconic. I had a
breakfast special which consisted
of hash browns, sausage, two eggs,
juice and all the coffee you could
drink for $3.
My
eggs were over-
cooked. I wasn't going to say
anything at first, but it wasn't like
they were just a little hard. The
white part of the egg was crystalliz-
ed - like when you cook it at 500
degrees and it gets all clear and
crunchy. I mentioned it to the
waitress and maybe it was the ·
gallon of free coffee
drank, I
don't know, but we got into a fren-
zied harangue which ended up in a
vicious and bitter disagreement
concerning
whether
"room
temperature"
was an exact or
'
lateral thinking
on a descending
elevator
relative term.
Day 6.
I have torn out the last
four pages in my journal. I have
decided my method of style (recor-
ding altercations with diner staff)
is what my critic would call
''counterproductive.''
Day
7.
I got a ride from a
trucker who picked me up in the
early, early morning at a railroad
junction. Sitting in the passenger's
seat l blew on my hands because it
was still chilly in the cab. He turn-
ed to me and said, "Yep, colder
than a well digger's ass this morn-
ing, eh?" I tore my notebook from
my knapsack and excitedly wrote
a sub-heading oh one of the pages
entitled,
Colorful
Colloquial
Expressions.
'
Day 8.
l must find a style or
writing that will embody what l'm
supposed to be experiencing out
here. If I lock into the right mode
of expression, maybe the ex-
periences will fall into place.
Kerouac writes in hearty prose of
mental keenness, kind of a regular-
Joe's-thinking-man.
A good-
hearted wise-ass. l also need to ac-
quire a lusty appetite for wine,
women and song. I need a vibran-
cy, a vitality.
Day 10.
Quit mah job down at
the car wash, lef' mah momma a
goodbye note. By sundown I lef'
Kingston with mah git-aaar unner
mah coat. No, No, No. Wrong ...
Day 10.S. At
lunch today l saw
this guy who'd be great for a
character sketch: His farmer's tan
ended at his elbows. His shoulder
sockets seemed to be sagging. The
t-shirt he had on came from a bin
in a department store marked ir-
regular,
but it fit him as if it were
tailored. He was a fugitive stick-
figure who broke loose from a
child's drawing. He was an uptight
gingerbread man on the lam from
Nurse
a baker who had trouble with ar-
tistic perspective.
Day 11. Got picked up by an
elderly women in a Delta 88 on In-
terstate 151. It occurred to me the
risk she had taken by picking up a
drifter like me. l had thought of
gently scolding her about the
dangers or picking up a hitchhiker.
But then l got to. thinking what if
this kindly old woman wasn't so
kindly. What if she had ... a mean
streak? What if all the heads of her
husbands were being kept fresh, and
crisp in transparent Tupperware
cake-savers on a utility shelf in her
basement, right next to the apricot
preserves?
•
We came upon a toll both before
the thruway. She got this faraway
look in her eyes. When the toll at-
tendant handed her the keypunch-
ed ticket, she asked him if there
.
would be
a
double feature tonight
and when intermission would be.
After this I offered to drive.
By then the sun was low in the
west. The last-rays of the day were
shooting in from the passenger's
side. I squinted a reflex-quick
squint and without a word she ad-
justed her sun visor to shield me
from the glare. Then she just sat
back.
•
I got off at St. Bonaventure, 100
miles from the Ohio border.

Cycling: Health and fun all in one
by Jonna Spilbor
It's slower than a speeding

than. a

potholes in a single bound while
working the lungs, heart and
muscles to build a trimmer,

According to the owners of
several local bicycle and sport
shops, the average price for a

$3,000,
depending on the manufac.

such as Schwinn or Ross, is usual-
ly less expensive than foreign

Femininity is
the key word
by Stephanie Biear
and Josephine Miluso
"In the past several years, there's
been no excitement or change in the
fashion world - there's bound to
be one soon,"
said Carmine
Porcelli, Marist fashion design in-
structor, during one of his classes
last year.
.
Sure enough, fall
'86
brought
out that change and a touch of
femininity has returned to fashion.
Women everywhere are digging in-
to the recesses of their closets for
scarves, bows, swing skirts and lace
tops..
.
...
Ironically, it was Georg10
Ar-
mani, the leader of the menswear
. style for women, who started the
latest trend. His collection took on
a new look when he added feminine
touches to his usually structured,
tailored clothing.
Armani knew women needed a
change. When they first set out in-
to the business world, they were
forced into hard-edged business
suits in an effort to stand shoulder
to shoulder with men. Now that
women
have
established
themselves, they !1re more self-
assured; there's no need to be
limited to just suits.
The '80s brought about a body-
conscious society, but in the past
few years, women's hard-worked
bodies have been covered up by
oversized, structured clothing.
In all the fashion capitals, New
York City, Paris and Milan, top
, designers are making women look
and feel like women again by ac-
centing their femininity in all
aspects of fashion.
-
Armani is continuing with his
models like Fuji and Motobicane.
The owners said the feature
which causes the greatest variance
• in price is simply the frame of the
bike. The lighter the bike, the more
money it will cost.
.
For serious bicycle racers, the
sport shop owners agreed that the
Italian-made Cinelli, which costs
about $4,000, is the best cycle
available. However, they said there
is no need for those who want to
ride just for fun and exercise to in•
dulge in such expensive models.
The most important features to
look for when buying a bike are
comfort and size. The rider must
be able to control the cycle at all
times. Therefore, the distance from
the seat to the ground must be in
proportion with the cyclist's body,
the shop owners explained.
But no matter what cost range
and features a cyclist is consider•
ing, the latest craze involves cycles
in wild flourescent colors, such as
pinks and purples. According to
the shop owners, most models arc
available in these and other colors.
Once the cyclist makes the pur-
chase, he or she may want to get
invovled in an organized club for
different riding experiences.
For $10
a
season (April I - Oct.
31), The Mid-Hudson Bicycle Club
offers a weekly newsletter outlin-
ing upcoming events and mapping
out the c'ourscs for future bicycle
trips, according to
Bill
Wilcox, the
club's vice president.

new approach but is not giving up
the menswear look. He likes "a
woman who comports herself with
a kind of grace." Lace, low-key
jackets, well-proportioned suits
and easy separates all define
femininity for Armani.
Bare shoulders are featured in
Calvin Kldn's collection and the
new approach fits in perfectly'with
his clean, soft lines.
.
Emanuel· Ungaro is looking at
the change as "fun.fashion," ad-
ding puff sleeves and flippy skirts
to his spring and fall lines.
GianFranco Ferre sees feminini-
ty and ease in long skirts.
Valentino is adding details to
make his collections more flowing.
He feels it will bring about a more
civilized touch.
"I think women very defininte-
ly want elaborate clothes - expen-
sive, glamorous, exciting," said Bill
Blass, whose collections are mirror-
ing their desires.
Donna Karen said, "We'll con-
tinue doing what we do best -
making a woman sensuous."
And Louis Dell'Olio, of Anne
Klein, is taking clothes into a much
more feminine direction. "Even
when they're highly tailored,
shapes will have more fit and
flair," he explained.
In short, the word for the up-
coming seasons is femininity. Now
.
is the time for women to flatter
themselves with glamorous clothes,
accessories and high heels, without
the fear of losing status in the
"man's world."
Wilcox explains that the rides
highlighted in the newsletter are
classified into four groups,
"A"
through."D," with
"A"
denoting
the longest and most difficult trips.
The excursions can range up to
125 miles, depending on which
group member volunteers to lead
the ride. But Wilcox said most trips
are considerably shorter.
"The secon~ most important
thing to have is a bicycle," said
Wilcox, who stressed the greater
necessity of a helmet. He said Bell
manufactures one of the best

He said he prefers to ride on
roads, obeying the same rules as
motorists. The problem with the
designated riding areas, such as the
one that stretches down
a small
sec-
tion of Roule
9
in Poughkeepsie,
is that the bicyclist docs not have
all the same privileges a, when
touring on the road.
Wilcox explained that using the
riding areas can be especially
dangerous
when
pas,i ng a
driveway. Ir the bicyclist
i,
on !he
road, he would have the right-of-
way; however, in the designated
areas, he would not.
Wilcox said that beside, the en-
joyment he gets from cycling, he
also reaps
the
physical benefits.
Comparing cycling with running,
he said cycling docs not cause shin
splints or the other muscle damage
that running can.
Real fun: The alternative top 10
by Jeff Nicosia
This column is an informative look at some of the exciting things
in this world that you just don't notice. While most Top
10
lists
focus on the movies or music, a significant part of our culture never
makes these lists. It is this cross-section of alternative music, food
and art that I am trying to present. Remember, you don't have
to agree with my views, but
I
thank you for taking the time to read
them. And so, as my man Joey says, "Hay, ho -
let's go!"
1. The Beastie Boys, "Licensed to
Ill"
(Def Jam Records) -
What
a record! These guys aren't one of the most popular bands in
America for nothing. The great thing about them is they refuse
to take themselves seriously. Check out "She's Crafty" -
Led
Zep guitar riffs and power bass. Illin • !
2. Renaissance Bar, Tuesday nights -
You can sit; you can talk;
you can hear; you can drink (and most importantly, you can
breathe).
3.
XTC, "Dear God" (Import
12") -
An amazing song that should
have been on XTC's great new album, "Skylarking." Buy both.
4.-The Primal Scream, WVKR-FM
(91.3,
Sunday
7-9
p.m.) - A
super mix of punk, old new.wave, and anything else DJs Damian
and Matt can find, make this one of the best radio shows in the
area.
5. Potato Skins, The River Room (Pizza Pub) -
Simply the best
tasting thing on this campus (that you can buy -
get your mind
out o( the gutter, you sickos!). Make sure to get plenty of sour
cream and don't forget the tabasco.
6.
The Minutemen (the band in general) - This
now-defunct trio
was on its way to mass audience acceptance when lead singer, D .
Boon, was killed in a car crash. Anyone who even remotely thinks
themselves a punk had best check out their early albums. And for
the rest of us psuedo-punks, there's "Project Mersh" and
"J Way
Tie for Last."
7. The Ramones, Jan. 1987 (The Chance) - It's about time a
Poughkeepsie club took some risks and featured a punk band. It's
not that I hate Hot Tuna, but • how 'bout booking The
Replacements; Agitpop or the Dead Milkmen?
8. Alice Chahbazian's show on WMCR (Tuesday 8-11 p.m.) -
One
of the best DJs at Marist, she really knows music. Her show is
always interesting even when she doesn't play the Ramones. Tune
in.
.
9. The Dead Kennedys, "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables"
(Cherry Red Records) -
It's hard to believe this record is over seven
years old. Truly one of the greatest punk albums ever. Top cuts:
"Kill the Poor," "Let's Lynch the Landlord," and "Viva Las
Vegas." God bless the OK's and may they rest in peace.
10. M*A*S*H*, Channel 5, 7 p.m. - I've gotten in such a habit
of watching during dinner that I just can't seem to digest without
Hawkeye and B.J. Innovative scripts and hilarious dialogue keep
me hooked. Best show on T.V.

Broadway Bound and other theater ideas
by Gina Disanza
• Sometime over Spring Break,
while most of you were sunbathing
and enjoying the warmth of some
tropical climate, I was determining
that I sorely lacked culture in my
life.
As a result, I have been hunting
high and low for things of the
cultural persuasion, specifically
theater and now, since I· am
enlightened, l feel it is my obliga-
tion to impart my findings on the
rest of the world (or at least my
friends at Marist).
This week, the campus has been
buzzing with tiny little people and
guess what they were doing ... right!
They were experiencing theater!
The MCCTA's
production of
"Cinderella,"
the Rodgers and
Hammerstein musical, has graced
the Marist stage
all
this week for
local school children. On Saturday,
the shows will be open to the stu•
dent body (show times at 12:30 and
3 p.m.) .
"Cinderella" is the perfect op-
portunity for us to relive our inno-
cent childhoods with some pure,
unadulterated
fun.
But
if
adulterated fun is more your speed,
don't miss Marist Night, the cast's
own somewhat bawdy and always
hysterical rendition of the musical.
That performance is tomorrow
night and tickets are available
through cast ~embers.
volved, the pressure to provide
names, and the fear of being
"blacklisted." Performances are
out
and
about
Saturday and April 11 at 2 p.m.
and Thursday, April 9, at 8 p.m.
Tickets are $5 and for more infor-
mation call 963-4550.
Of course, there's always the
chance to hop on a train and head
to New York City -
after all,
Broadway and theater are almost
synonomous.
If you are able to travel, it might
be interesting to check out the pro-
duction of "Are You Now or Have
You Ever Been .. .'' at the Hudson
River Museum in Yonkers. The
play is taken from the transcripts
of the 1951-52 hearings of the
House Committee for Unamerican
Activities (you know, the McCar•
Broadway has beer. a kind of

fascinating place lately. It's no

secret that it's becoming more and
more difficult to afford the price
of a ticket and maybe that's why
there haven't been as many solid
performances. But lately things are
looking up.
There are the old standards, such
as "A Chorus Line," "Cats," and
"42nd Street," as well as new
favorites like "The Mystery of Ed-
win Drood" (now affectionately
called "Drood" by his friends),
"I'm Not Rappaport" (starring
Hal Linden) and "Me and My
Girl."
But lately all the buzz has been
surrounding two recent openings
-
"Les Miserables." the adapta-
tion of the Victor Hugo novel, and
"Starlight Express," the musical
which is performed totally on
rollerskates. Both have been receiv-
ing rave reviews and are breathing
new life into the Broadway scene.
If price is keeping you away,
remember TKTS, the half-price
ticket booth on 42nd Street bet-
ween 5th and Broadway, near the
New York Public Library. TKTS
offers half.price tickets to Broad-
way shows on the day qf the per•
formance only, based on availabili-
ty. So, go with a couple of shows
in mind and pray for the best.
Also of note: "Les Miserables"
has set aside 200 tickets for every
performance on Monday through
Thursday. These tickets are solely
for students with valid identifica-
tion and are available for $16 at the
box office (the Broadway Theatre,
Broadway and 53rd St.). Consider-
ing seats are sold out until around
the end of June, this opportunity
is a great one.
So, now that I've gotten all the
theater out of my system, I feel
relieved. If only I had the time (and
. money) to take some of my own
suggestions ...

Marist before women: Looking to the river for fun
by Michael O'Looney
The year was 1961. Kennedy was
in the White House, Elvis was in
the army, Roger Maris hit 61 home
runs, gas was 33 cents a gallon and
every one of the 250 students at
Marist was male.
But the absence of women on
campus wasn't all that was dif-
ferent. From River Day to man-
datory study periods, it was a very
different era.
.
Marist was an all-male school
until 1966, when women were per-
mitted to enter the evening divi-
sion. In 1968, they were permitted
to enter the day division. The first
women to live on campus moved
into Sheahan and Leo Halls in
1969.
A student paid $625 for a full-
year's tuiti?n in
_1961.
Generally he
was a member of a large family and
the first to attend college.
The early 1960s had yet to see the
relaxation of responsible dress and
attendance codes, according to
Bro. Joe Belanger; a long-time pro-
fessor of French at Marist.
Student's were required to wear
a suit jacket, tie and shoes. Classes
- which focused heavily on liberal
arts -
met three times a week.
More than three absences earned a
failing grade.
And you didn't study when you
wanted to back then; you studied
when they told you to. According
to Dr. Richard.La Pietra, a pro-
fessor of
.chemistry
who has been
on the Marist faculty since 1960,
students had to be in their rooms
studying in absolute silence from 8
p.m. to 10 p.m. every weeknight.
•
Doors in resident halls were kept
• open to allow the supervisor to
monitor every student,- La Pietra
said.
At 10 p.m., students had a half-
hour of free time, according to·
Belanger, who has been on the
Marist faculty since 1959 -
and
they took advantage of it. "All hell
broke loose until the lights went out
at 10:30," he said.
On weekends many students
passed the time as they do today -
drinking. The hot bars were
Frank's, which is now Skinner's,
and The Brown Derby, which· is
still located on lower Main Street.
Freshmen had to be back in their
rooms by I a.m. on weekends, but
upperclassmen could stay out late
- until 2 a.m. Punishment for be-
ing late could result in being "cam-
pused" - restricted to one's floor
or room the next weekend.
Reacting to such rules, Mark
Flanagan, a junior communication
arts major said, "That's not col-
lege, that's a penitentiary."
In 1961, Marist men needed lit-
tle protection. Security wasn't a
concern until the arrival of women.
Even in the old days, basketball
dominated the sports scene. Cheers
for long-forgotten players like Wal-
ly Barisnek and Bernie Dooley once
filled the Marian Gym - a far cry
from the Mccann Center.
But the strict rules placed on
students more than two decades
ago did little to stop their
rowdiness.
River Day - a dying tradition in
the 80s -
was totally crazy in its
early days, according to Belanger.
He also recalled a time when
students hijacked an abandoned
beer car on the railroad tracks
'
behind Champagnat Hall. Before
the authorities arrived students had
formed a human chain, filling
almost the encirc first floor of
Champagnat with cases of beer.
Now that Marist is nearly even-
ly divided between men and
women, it may be hard to imagine
an all-male campus. In an informal
survey, about 20 male students
were asked if they would attend an
all-male college. They all respond-
ed with firm "no's."
"Charles Manson has a better
chance of making parole than of
me going to an all-male Marist,"
Chris Barry, a junior, said.
Senior Robert "Flounder"
Hatem said,
"I
would rather be
buried up to my neck in cow dung
than torture myself with an all-
lT\ale college."
Pr6fessor enjoys teaching art as much_as
creating it
by Todd Jesaitis
•
Richard Lewis has devoted his
life to art.
And whether he's teaching
classes in Marist East or working
on one of his slightly abstract,
brightly colored paintings, his
devotion shows.
Lewis, who has been teaching art
HJ
like to put in my
work a little something
for all people. ,,
at
·Marist
for three years, has
displayed his work in galleries
throughout the country.
In the past year alone he has ex-
hibited in New York, Texas, New
Mexico, Illinois and Oklahoma,
and he will have a one-man art
show exhibited next October in
Poughkeepsie.
Lewis cannot always get to ex-
hibits, but he tries to get as much
feedback from them as he can;
And even though he admits his
work does not sell well, he is con-
fident that people like it. His work,
he says, isn't for decoration in den-
tists' offices or in-elevators because
the bright colors and "loose" pain-
ting style give it an abstract feeling.
"I like to put in my work a little
something for all people," said
Lewis. Lewis said he likes to think
any person, whether an art critic or
weekend gallery visitor, can find
something enjoyable in his work.
And he jokes about his critics.
He recalled with a laugh a woman
who told him her baby grandson
could paint better.
But as much as painting, Lewis
loves to teach. "Teaching is an
equal love of mine," he said.
"It
gives me the feeling that I'm doing
HTeaching gives me
the feeling I'm doing
something jor the art
world."
something valuable for the art
world while keeping my own
knowledge of art sharp."
With the limited financial
rewards
of
being an artist, a steady
job as a teacher is a big asset in his
life, he said.
But making money on his art
isn't really important to Lewis.
"For me, painting is emotional
rewarding. It is a self-centered
enterprise which brings me closer
in discovering my true self."
Above, "Artist and Wife." Below, "Terrorist Buddha." Both paintings are the work of Dr. Richard Lewis.

CIA Protests Flare
At Iowa, Wisconsin
Police arrested 25 U. Iowa
students trying to keep the CIA
from recruiting on campus last
week, while 20 U. Wisconsin-
Madison
students
sat in at
Chancellor Bernard Cohen's office
for the same reason.
About 700 U. Colorado students
rallied in support of seven CU pro-
testors who were banned from
campus for a year in punishment
for their conduct during a Nov.
17
anti-CIA demonstration.
Young Conservatives Of
Texas Illegally Got
Opponent's Academic Record
Paul Bartley, head of Texas-
Austin's YCT chapter, says the.
YCT got the transcript of campus
radical Marc Salomon as part of an
"investigation" of Salomon.
Bartley said he knew it was ii-
legal to have the transcript, but that
he wasn't sure who in the group
had purloined it.
YCT also had "photo files" of
others it considers opponents, in-
cluding an Austin Community Col-
lege freshman and a columnist for
The Texan, the campus paper.
Students Deny Putting LSD
In
Coffee
At
Appalachian
State's Snack Bar
Stephen G. Travis, 26, on trial
for allegedly lacing coffee pot con-
tents with "acid,'' testified he and
codefendant T.O. Phillips had
never been serious about carrying
out a "threat" that was intended
as "a humorous thing."
Police arrested Travis and
Phillips last May after seven peo-
ple who had consumed some of the
coffee from the pot in question
complained of dizziness and
hallucinations.
A Rash Of Rapes
Plaques Michigan State
MSU officials hired more police
and urged women not to walk
across campus alone until they find
the people responsible for 10
reported rapes in and around the
campus since late December.
San Diego State, Illinois and
. Tennessee all reported multiple -
though probably unrelated - rapes

Lyon, who is majoring in
religious studies, psychology and
writing, said she feels that you
can't be successful in the integrative
major without being a good
student.
Cathleen Albans, coordinator of
adult student services, said that
while the school of adult education
is excited when students enroll in
the program, it's not for everyone.
"It's not a cookbook type of
major," Albans said. "Some peo-
ple can't handle the flexibility. The
ones who handle it best are mature,
intelligent adults."
Albans
said that students in the
program have to be more focused
than the average student. They
need to
have a better sense of where
they are going because the in-
tegrative major requires long-range
planning.
Lyon,
whose
interest
in
psychology and religion began dur-
ing her career as a hospice nurse,
is already planning her graduate
studies. She ha:s consulted catalogs
from a number of graduate schools
to make sure her study plan meets
graduate school requirements
toward her goal of teaching at the
college level.
Many of the graduates of the
program have been accepted in
graduate programs, Albans said.
Chris Jones, the first graduate of
the program, was accepted at Iona
and Marist before she finished her

"I have no intentions whatsoever
of transfering," said Bradley.
Margaret Killeen, a 20-year-old
junior from Wall, N.J., agreed. "I
live 3 hours from this area, and I'd
go crazy if I had to spend 10 weeks
of my summer taking courses at
Mount Saint Mary's," she said.
"Marist has not been negotiating
enough (with Mount Saint Mary)
for a transfer to be acceptable,"
said Deschamps.
Hynes said even if the board of
trustees recommends the program
be continued, prospective students
will be skeptical of attending a pro-
gram with an uncertain future.

money to the program and want to

The Play's
The Thing
Students to present own work
in theater -wo·rkshop this month
by Todd Jesaitis
The Marist College Council on
Theater Arts will present eight
short plays written by the students
April 22 through 24 in the Theater.
The plays are being produced in
conjunction with the class "Ex-
perimental Theater Workshop,"
which is taught by Gerard Cox,
vice president for student affairs.
Shelly Sousa, a communication
arts major, will be presenting her
play, "Upstage,"
a story of a
woman struggling to keep the
recognition fame gave her as a
young star, while coping with
aging.
"Writing is so scary," Sousa
said. "Its like opening up a part of
yourself,
then putting
it on
display."
This is not the first play Sousa
created for production.
As a
sophomore, she wrote "Me and
Brian."
•
While Sousa says
she
does enjoy
writing, acting is her real love.
"Right now 1 'm taking an indepen-
dent study course where
l
'm
writing a full-length play with a stu-
dent from Mount St. Mary," said
Sousa. "After it is completed we
might want to take·is somewhere,
but after that, pl~ywri~ing »-Jll. be
just a hobby."
•
•
The assistant instructor of the
class, Michael Larkin, has two
plays,
"ln
a Lonely Place" and
"Second Sight," in the festival.
Larkin, a senior communication
arts major, said his characters are
not autobiographical, but instead
the culmination of all his acting
experiences.
"Every character that l create I
know that
I can act," said Larkin.
"In a Lonely Place" is the story
of a 19-year-old boy who's dying
of leukemia and his relationship
with his brother. "Second Sight"
'Every show
you have to be-
come the part,
and each time is
always
differ-
ent.'
is about a 45-year-old psychic
-who
uses his clairvoyance to help a
detective on a murder case in the
Midwest.
Larkin, who has acted since he
w~s young, wants to pursue some
aspe~t of film after graauation.
"lri
acting, you're the end-product,"
said Larkin. "Every show you have
to become the part, and each time
it is always different."
Brian O'Connor, a senior com-
munication arts major, will present
his play
"Late
Ending." This play
is a light comedy about a writer,
with its setting in a fantasy or
dream state, said O'Connor.
"I think this play is very in-
teresting partly, because of its
spontaneity," said O'Connor. "I
created most of it at one sitting
with pen and paper, and my hand
practically fell off."
O'Connor said he too would like
to continue acting_
after graduation.
The play "Dinner for Three"
was written by Christine Lawless,
a sophomore from Huntington,
Long Island. "This play is a com-
edy about a Jewish girl whose dead
mother comes back and annoys her
to get married," said Lawless.
The subject matter of the play is
strictly imaginative, said Lawless.
"I created the play with some
friends in mind but mostly from
imagination," she said.
Lawless, who does a lot of acting
at home, praised the Theater
workshop class.
"It
is a great
chance for students to get involv-
ed in all aspects of theater," she
said.
Kieran Alex Murphy, a senior
English literature major, has writ-
ten "Brent's Katy." The play is a
romantic comedy with serious
undertones about a couple working
on their relationship,
said
Murphy.
The dialogue of Brent and Katy
is embedded with hard facts, which
lead to a variety of themes, said
Murphy.
"Some themes include rejection,
getting along too well, apostasy,
charismatic power and outside
forces of a relationship,"· said
Murphy.
Murphy, a Circle columnist, said
the play presented new challenges
for him as a writer.
"Everything
has
10
be propelled by dialogue,"
he
said.
John Roche, a senior in com-
munication arts, has two plays
scheduled: ",Chop $uey"
and
"Romeo and Julio."
'I
created
most of it at one
sitting with pen
and paper, and
my ha~d prac-
tically fell off.'
"Chop Suey" is a one act about
the
workers
in a Chinese
restaurant. "Romeo and Julio" is
a work in progress about the begin-
ning of a relationship.
Roche, who hopes
co
work in
theater after graduation, has been
active in Marist productions for
four years. "Every year is a great
opportunity to see something you
have created come to life on
stage," said Roche.
Apartment chefs stir up meals and mysteries
by Chris Barry
When most students move from
the d"orms to North End housi~g.
they usually cite cooking for
themselves as enjoyable -
even
challenging.
Most students, that is.
While some students may excel
in the kitchen, there are others who
would starve if fast foods had never
been invented.
A recent survey of North End
cooking found a range of culinary
adventures, everything from tried
and true recipes passed along by
Mom to spur-of-the-moment
improvising.
Roy Arezzo, a junior from
Staten Island,
N.Y.,
said: "We
make what everybody else makes
-
chicken cutlets, spaghetti,
steaks, but sometimes we experi-
ment. For instance, we winged it on
chicken teriyaki, and my meatloaf
has never come out the same
twice."
Nadine Orlino, a junior from
Shirley,
N.Y.,
learned to cook at
home. She refused to reveal her
grandmother's secret sauce recipe,
but her housemates vow that it's
'We winged it
on chicken teri-
yaki .'
delicious.
"I like co bake cakes and things
clean-up I can do without."
Chris Coyle, a junior from Troy,
more than anything else," Orlino
said.
Added Arezzo: "I like cooking
a lot. It's the time involved and the
N.Y, found out he likes Eggo waf-
fles with Italian dressing. "And I
wasn't even drunk," he said.
Coyle is_
not alone when it comes
to dietary daring. "One of my
housemates made Jack Daniel's
burgers once," he said. "He cook-
ed hamburgers then let them soak
in the whiskey."
For the less adept in the kitchen,
mealtime often means counting on
housemates to come through with
the good eating. As Are22o's room-
mate, John Cronin of Hamden,
Conn., put it, "If Roy makes it, I'll
.
eat it."
Coyle said that his housemates
do most of the cooking, although
he is trying to learn for next year.
Dorothy Osborn, a computer
science major from Milford,
Conn.,
and a housemate
of
Orlino's, admitted she wasn't ex-
actly a world-class cook. "I'm safe
with a box of cereal and a gallon
of milk," she said.
Even the basics have eluded
some of her peers. While trying to
defrost chopped meat, one student
boiled the package and then tried
to wring it out.
Two others said they enjoyed
their barbecued chicken last week.
Of course that was after they
managed to get the fire under
control.
Residents of one apartment ad-
mitted to having a grease fire in
their stove. They said they thought
the oven was self-cleaning.
Another student figured he
would heat a can of green beans by
opening the can and putting it in
the oven.
Students like these will not go
hungry, they said, as long as they
still have housemates to cook for
them -
and cars to drive to
McDonald's and Burger King.
'I'm safe with
a box of cereal
and a gallon of
milk.'

outhful laxmen stumble in early season
by
Paul Kelly
Last May, Mike Malet knew
things would not be the same.
At Marist's 1986 Commence-
ment, Malet saw nine members of
his Marist College lacrosse team ac-
cept their diplomas. Not average
players, but stalwart veterans such
as Paul Rezza, John Young, Steve
Ryan and Tom Daly.
Malet also knew the days of
Marist playing such illustrious
lacrosse powderpuffs as SUNY
New Paltz and Queens College ex-
ited in May.
This season, after losing one-
third of last year's 12-2 team to
graduation and bolstering its
schedule to include respected Divi-
sion One lacrosse teams, things are
different for the Marist lacrosse
team.
After three games last year, the
Red Foxes outscored their op-
ponents 59-9 en route to a 3-0
record. This season, Marist has
stumbled to a 1-2 record and has
been outscored 39-22.
Last Saturday, Marist was
humbled 17-6 by host SUNY Stony
Brook, one of the respected squads
Malet inserted into the Red Foxes'
1987 schedule. Two weeks ago,
Stony Brook deieated Ohio State
15-2.
Marist will host Manhattanville
today at Leonidoff Field in a 3:30
p.m. matchup. The Red Foxes'
four-game homestand will continue
Saturday when they host New York
Maritime at 3:30 p.m. New York
Maritime defeated Marist 12-11 last
year in a showdown between then-
unbeaten Knickerbocker Con-
ference teams.
The Red Foxes hosted Siena
yesterday.
Results were not
available at press time.
Against
Stony
Brook,
sophomore
attackman
Peter
Cleary, who established Marist
single-season scoring records for
assists (45) and total points (92) last
season, scored two. goals for
Marist. Freshman attackman Steve
Maloney registered a goal and an
assist.
Commencement '86, the biggest
problem with this year's squad,
manifested itself against Stony
.
Brook last Saturday. "There was
one
-point
of the game Saturday
where we had seven freshman on
the field," said Malet. "That's
been our biggest shortcoming thus
far."
Besides inexp·erience, injury and·
illness riddled the Red Foxes early
this season. Last week, Kevin Ever-
son, Dave Langella and Chris
Boerke contracted the flu while
Danny Arnold, defensive mainstay
Bob Cowie and last year's No.2
scorer, Bill Drolet,suffered knee
injuries.
Despite the problems plaguing
the Marist laxmen, Malet indicated
positive things have occurred.
"The score doesn't show it, but
against Stony Brook we played

good defense," said Malet. "Also,
we're giving a lot of young kids
expe~ience."
However, the Red Foxes would
like to forget last year's graduation,
especially when Young received his
diploma. "John Young was the
·best
defensive midfielder I've ever
seen," said Malet. "Faceoffs were
almost guaranteed with John's
ability."
Last year, the Red Foxes' forte
was scoring. With a potent fast
break, Marist scored quickly and
often..

Sunshine State aids Marist crews· in win
by Paul Kelly
Larry Davis would like to thank
the state of Florida for a victory.
Last Saturday on a 2,000 meter
Hudson River course, Marist Col-
lege men's and women's crew
defeated visiting Manhattan Col-
lege five races to four in a dual
meet, and Marist Head Coach
Larry Davis attributed the Red
Foxes' early-season success to the
Sunshine State.
The winning Marist crews were:
the men's \ ightweight varsity eight
and varsity four, and the women's
novice eight, novice four and var-
sity four.
The Red Foxes will travel to
Ithaca College Saturday.
"I'm
ex-
pecting a lot of competition up in
Ithaca this week," said Davis.
Davis said last Saturday's victory
over the Jaspers was assisted by a
one-week sojourn to Flordia.
Marist crew travelled to the
Florida_ Institute of Technology in
Melbourne, Fla., during Spring
Break for an arduous week of
preparation for this season. Davis
said each crew member assembled
an average of five to six hours per
day to run, stretch and row.
Without the week in Florida,
Marist crew would encounter a dif-
ficult spring racing season, said
Davis.
"If
we don't have spring
training,
it
would be suicide," said
Davis.
"If
it hadn't been for that
week, we wouldn't have been able
to win any of these (Manhattan)
races."
Thanks to muscles straining
under sun-drenched
skin in
Florida, the Red Foxes defeated
Manhattan. However, Davis in-
dicated last Saturday's schedule of
races was not a typical Marist-
Manhattan affair .
"Normally, each race we row
against them are neck-and-ncek,"
said Davis. "With the exception of
the men's lightweight varsity eight
and the women's varsity eight, they
were blowouts. That was odd."
The· Marist men's
varsity
lightweight eight nipped Manhat-
tan by one-half second, winning in
6:51. Manhattan's women's varsi-
ty eight finished first in a time of
8:32, 15 seconds ahead of Marist.
Davis said both squads' times
were slow because boats rowed
against a strong Hudson River
current.
.
Marist crew is annually troubl~
ed by the tempestuous springtime
nature of the Hudson River, as
wavering currents and ice prevent
practice. Many of Marist's op-
ponents have practiced in the water
for this season since late January,
said Davis.
"Marist will miss 20 to 30 per-
cent of its practices because of
rough water," said Davis. "When
you put that together in a six-week
racing schedule, there's not much
time to play catch-up."
Hoop epilogue
by
Paul Kelly
Last Saturday, Jim Boeheim said
the entire NCAA tournament and
in particular, the Final Four, was
overemphasized by fans and the
media.
Boeheim shou_ld
know. He guid-
ed Syracuse to its first Final Four
appearance during his IO-year
coaching tenure as the Orangemen
eventually Jost in last Monday
night's final game against Indiana.
Prior to this year, Boeheim was
considered a loser, a coaching re-
ject because his
squads
posted a
mediocre postseason record despite
averaging nearly 23 wins per
regular season.
This year, Jim Boeheim ws
removed from the cross and
elevated among the ranks of the
divine because of Syracuse's
NCAA success.
However, Dave Magarity still
hangs on the cross, alongside 15
young men, because of the four let-
ters which characterize the game of
basketball during March. NCAA .
McCann is quiet now, a stunn-
ing contrast to March 7, when the
Red Foxes defeated Fairleigh
Dickinson to earn a second-
consecutive trip to the NCAA

Tournament. Last year, Marist lost
to vaunted Georgia Tech 68-53 in
the first round of the Southeast

•
One year ago, Marist lost, but
earned respect. The Marist com-
munity buzzed for weeks after
THE game. Rik Smits gained na-
tional attention because of THE
game. Marist became known in
prominent collegiate basketball
circles because of THE game.
Three weeks ago, the Red Foxes
travelled to Tucson, Ariz., to play
Pittsburgh in the first round of the
NCAA West Regional. In the

ty and 15 young men were crucified
because of four letters. NCAA.
The Red Foxes were crushed by
Pittsburgh, 93-68, in this year's
version of THE game. However, it
really isn't considered THE game
anymore.
Talk has ceased about the Red
Foxes marvelous 20-10 season. The
sole memory of the 1986-87 edition
of Poughkeepsie hoopla is Pitt's
Jerome Lane slam dunking the ball
on Peter Krasovec's head.
Yes, Marist lost to Pitt. The
same Pitt which was the tri-
champion of the toughest con-
ference in America, the Big East.
The same Pitt which defeated
Boeheim's Ornngemen twic~ dur-
ing the regular season. Yes, Marist,
which ransacked the ECAC Metro,
was thrashed by Pitt, a beast of the
Ean.
.
However, as Boeheim's IO-year
puncture wounds begin_
to heal, it
is easy to sec the wisdom of his
words. The NCAA's create too
much emotion, pressure. March
madness breeds April sadness, un-
fair and unnecessary crucifixion.
Marist's wounds continue to
·fester.
Many say the Red Foxes'
stepped backwards after the
"disaster in the desert." Others say
the days of Marist becoming an
Eastern powerhouse escaped the
Red Foxes after the loss.
A friend of mine who was in
Tucson to watch the game said
many of those ·in the McKale
Center crowd said Marist did not
belong in the tournament.
All of these
claims
are
understandable. And all are wrong.
One game is not supposed to
make a season. Unfortunately, for
schools like Marist, Bucknell and
Fairfield, memories of a 30-game
season are encapsuled into one

This year, however, things have
changed. "The veterans have to
realize we have to run a set offense
to get our goals," said Malet.
"We've got to start to put goals in
the back of the net."
But after a glance at the roster,
one wonders where the veterans
are. This year's squad has 12
sophomores and
.eight
freshman,
and just one senior, midfielder
Steve Wolfe.
"It's going to take a while for
this team to mature and to learn to
play with each qther," said Malet.

Build those crosses with the
realization that Marist basketball
was more than a game this season,
much more. A simple child's game
united this community as nothing
ever has.
For once, a MacGregor basket-
ball,. not IBM, controlled our
region. For three days in March,
everyone at Marist had the same
major -
Red Fox basketball -

level in a 4,000-seat classroom.
Then, the four-lettered demon

Women place
13th in Metro
swimming meet
by Annie Breslin
Th~ ~arist women's swimming
and d1vmg team endured a period
of transition during the 1986-87
season.
. The squad finished out the
1986-87 season with only 12 swim-
mers -
considerably less than it
began with.
Eight of the twelve remaining
swimmers qualified for the EOAC
Women's Swimming and Diving
Championships, held March 5-7 at
Springfield College, Springfield,
Mass. At the ECAC Metro's, the
Lady Red Foxes repeated last
year's performance at the meet,
finishing 13th in a field of 20
teams.
Leading the way for the tiny Red
Fox squad was Lisa Burgbacher,
whose second place showing in the
3-meter diving event was ·Marist's
highest
finish
of the day.
Burgbacher also finished third in •
the 1-meter event.
Tammy Tillyer joined Burbacher
in the diving well, finishing 16th at
both heights.
Although no Marist records fell
at the ECAC Metro's, Women's
Head Coach Jim Billesimo said he
was pleased that all his swimmers
matched or improved upon earlier
Metropolitan Conference Cham-
pionship performances'.
In the individual events, Karen
Oitzinger swam to 16th place
finishes in the 100- and 200-yard
backstroke events, finishing in
1:09.8 and 2:31.2 for the two
distances, respectively.
Oitzinger was a workhorse for
the Red Foxes, also swimming in
three of the squad's high-scoring
relays.
The 800-freestyle relay" of Oitz-
inger, Deb Noyes, Jackie O'Brien
and Amy Schilling finished 10th.
The relay's time of 9:03.27 eclips-
ed its meet- qualifying time.

Knox plans career
with thoroughbreds
by Diane Pasquaretta
Saturday afternoons,
Joyce
Knox visits Miss Piggy and Pac
Man and often treats them to sugar
cubes and carrots.
, .Miss Piggy and Pac.Man are. two
thoroughbred show horses boar-
.ding at Onyx Farm in LaGrange,
N.Y.,
where Knox works as an in-
structor, apprentice trainer and
horse show organizer.
Knox, a senior communications
arts major from Bay Shore, N.Y.,
founded
the Marist College
Equestrian team in 1984. She has
been riding since !lge 10 and recent-
ly decided to postpone a career in
video production to work as a full-
time horse trainer after graduation
in May.
"I
have always loved horses and
been interested in training, and I
now have the opportunity to
become a skilled trainer," said
·Knox.
The opportunity to train stemm-
ed from Knox's apprenticeship to
Ron Esposito, a trainer !lt Onyx.
"Joyce's riding and training
have progressed a great deal and
because of her age, she is a good
instructor for the younger riders
and a good mediator between me
and them," said Esposito.

Last
Thursday
against
Bridgeport, the doubles team of
Jim Hayes and Rich Spina won
the deciding match, breaking a
4-4 tie.
• Earlier in the match, the Red
Foxes found themselves in trou-
ble when their first three singles.
• players lost. Max Sandmeier
lost in straight sets at the first
seed spot. Spina and Jim
Roldan followed Sandmeier's
lead, also losing in straight sets.
But, Marist's other singles
players - John Macom, Chris
Silveri and Marg Mellor -
came through with wins. Then,
the freshman doubles team of
Sean Raleigh and Rob Kirk won
before the Hayes-Spina team
won the deciding match.
"We have a lot of depth,"
Marist first-year Head Coach
George Dioguardo said regar-
• ding the Bridgeport match.
Although Knox is no longer a
member of the equestrian team
because of her busy schedule - she
currently juggles a 15-credit intern-
ship as a video production assistant
for Big
V
Supermarkets of Florida,
N. Y.,
and a part-time waitressing
job ..:._·
she spends· ~12 hours per
week at Onyx .
Each Saturday at 11:30 a.m.,
Knox, clad in paddock riding
boots, spurs, suede "chaps" worn
qver faded jeans and an English
riding cap, arrives at Onyx's
stables.
For the next six hours, she in-
structs beginning riders and exer-
cises and trains the stables' board-
ed (privately owned) horses.
As a trainer, Knox devotes much
of her time to "lunging," an activi-
ty in which Knox, while standing
on the ground, tethers the horse on
a long strap and, using a whip,
trains the horse to walk, trot and
cantor.
The additional six hours per
week are usually devoted to
organizing Onyx's horse shows,
which can occur three times per
month.
Knox's organizational duties in-
• elude composing show programs
and selling advertisements.
Another facet of Knox's involve-
ment with horse shows encom-
passes working as a horse show
secretary.
•
As secretary, Knox collects
money from the shows' com-
petitors, assigns them numbers and
completes a log from which the
show's ringmaster reads.
Upon full-time employment,
Knox said she hopes to consolidate
these activities, with an emphasis
on training.
While Knox said she plans to re-
main at Onyx until she finds. the
"ideal" production assistant ·posi-
tion, she plans on someday com-
bining the two careers. •
She said she hopes to accomplish
this by producing video tapes of
riders to be used as instructional
aids for trainers as well as clinic
participants - those who pay to be
filmed and critiqued by trainers to
improve their riding.
Knox's ultimate career goals are
somewhat undecided, but she is
currently pleased.
"Not many people can turn a
hobby into a career," said Knox.
"l hope to do that, for a while at
least."

Friday--
continued. from page

classes on those precious Fridays?
I hear their free time is quite
valuable too .
I don't think an early Friday
class prevents a three-day weekend;
it just delays it by an hour or so.
If the academic scheduling is the
problem, need I remind any stu.,
dent what a lack of variety and
availability our programs suffer
from.
I'm not talking about entertain-
ment value in the curricula; I'm
just referring to the impending
long, grey line at the registrar's
door. Instead of punishing us with
a new schedule, why not take a
good look at the current one?
Never mind challenging us - how
about just letting us into the classes
we're paying good money for?
There are valid reasons for
students to choose Fridays as the
time of the week to play Ferris
Bueller. Some students have
lengthy trips home, and many of us
have weekend jobs. Friday is also
an excellent day to catch up on
extra-curricular commitments, hit
the library, meet with a professor,
or just do some homework.

McCann--
"Continued from page 1
Murphy and Dormeyer agree
that LaPan's ruling fails to notice
that bleachers in the McCann
Center, which are considered fix-
ed seating, would necessitate the 15
square feet for each person, and
not the seven square feet of the
auditorium.
"They have fixed seats there,"
Murphy
said.
"They
have
bleachers which are attached to the
wall. Even if he is right, they still
have insufficient exists."
"The principal use is a gym,"
Dormeyer said.
"It
doesn't make
a lot of sense. I don't follow him
·at
all."
Dormeyer and Murphy said an
official public assembly certificate,
which indicates the maximum
number of people allowed to oc-
cupy the building, had n-ot been
posted at the.Mccann Center prior
to the ECAC tournament since its
opening April 3, 1977. Building
codes of 1977 required such
posting, they said.
Dormeyer said LaPan was
responsible for posting the public
assembly certificate. "After I made
a complaint to LaPan after receiv-
ing two • complaints of over-
crowding. from people at the
basketball games, he couldn't come
.
up with a figure for the assembly
certificate," he said. "We re-
quested it, and it has not been
produced."
"That (public assembly cer-
tificate) should have been posted
that
day,"
Murphy
said.
"Somebody didn't do their iob."
,
-
Murphy said he checked with
George
Chelune,
McCann
maintenance supervisor, and Joe
Waters, director of safety and
security, who said they had Iiever
seen a public assembly certificate
posted at the fy1cCann Center.
"Right now, the occupancy per-
mit is posted," Dormeyer said,
"and is signed_by
LaPan and that's
. official. My question is has he done
it properly? He has committed the
town
to
overcrowding
the
building."
According to Edward Waters,
vice president for administration
and finance, Marist has hired Ar-
chitect Stewart Cohen to in-
vestigate the controversy.
"It's a very technical thing,"
Waters said, "and he has to decide
the requirements before we can
make any plans."
Waters said if construction of
new fire exists at the McCann
Center is necessary, it could esily
be completed before Commence-
ment ceremonies.
"As far as the doors go, it's not
a big job," he said. "It's really
simple."
