THE NEWPORT COLLEGE

November 1981

Salve Salutes Promising New Staff Resident Program Director Serious by TINA LIARD Managing residence halls is a twenty-four hour job. "It has to be when you're responsible for 800 people," said Resident Program Director Steven Painchaud. If there is a student or dormitory related problem, Painchaud feels committed to respond, and more often than not, he does.

Resident Program Director Steven Painchaud "It's much like a doctor who puts his time in at the hospital. Then, he goes home, but he's on call," he said. "If I get called at three in the morning . . . more than likely I'll go out."

Poulin Bilingual Another new member to our faculty at Salve Regina, is Sr. Eugena Poulin. With twenty-seven years of experience in elementary and secondary schools, as well as adult education, Sr. Eugena has joined the Department of Languages and Literatures. Both a qualified English and French teacher, Sr. Eugena received her bachelor's degree in English and Education. She then went on to get a master's degree in French Literature at Assumption College. After spending three summers in Paris, France, she was awarded the Certificat de Perfectionnement at the Institut Catholique de Paris. (She also interpreted for a short time in France.) Her hobbies include French Continued on Page S

In addition to resident support and discipline, programming is another dimension to Painchaud's role. According to Painchaud, a program is any event at which people gather (in numbers large or small) and interact. Effective planning of dorm activities is not entirely up to Painchaud or his Hall Directors. Input from residents themselves is essential. For, as Painchaud said, they know what they want and what is needed. What is needed in terms of housing itself? Painchaud hopes to eliminate room assignment confusion by permanently designating and stabilizing dorms as either male or female. "In the spring when students pick their rooms through the lottery, those room assignments shouldn't change," he said. With such a strenuous workload, rest and relaxation are a must for Painchaud. "I jog now and then and visit with friends," he said. However, "Some can go out and play racquetball once a week and forget about everything. I'd probably go with someone from campus, and we'd end out talking about school." Is this an occupational hazard or an attitude of extreme seriousness ? Steve Painchaud appears excessively concerned about his office; he takes on a great deal of personal responsibility, and he is obviously committed to doing the best possible job he can as Salve's new Resident Program Director.

Full-Time After Four Years by BARBARA WELDON Dr. Norma Bailey is now a fulltime asset to our English Department. Born in Virginia, Dr. Bailey received her master's degree at Catholic University and her doctorate at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. She has been teaching part-time at Salve for four years. Fortunately for Salve, Dr. Bailey has obtained full-time status and hopes to apply for tenure in five years. As Dr. Bailey points out, "Students seem to be better qualified than when I first started teaching here. They are much more articulate and willing to share their ideas and interpretations of literature." Dr. Bailey also states that the number of English majors is steadily increasing, and with that increase the English Department itself is expanding, both in faculty and ideas.

Krieger Social Addition by MARIA KODMAN Marge Krieger, a new member of the Social Work Program, earned her master's in Social Work at Simmons School in Boston. Balancing a career at Salve and the full-time position of mother, Ms. Krieger commutes from Barrington, R.I. - about a 45 minute drive - three times a week in order to teach here. She says that the commuting does not really inconvenience her, and when one finds that Ms. Krieger commuted to the Newport Mental Health Center five days a week while working there for the past two years, one understands. Married to a writer for the Journal and mother of Anna Meagan Krieger, who will be one year old this month, Ms. Krieger is originally from Buff a 1 o, New York. She moved to this area two

ROTC For Nurses? by PATRICIA NASSANEY The "Alternative ROTC Advanced Camp for Nursing Students" is designated as the experimental program which places nursing cadets into an army hospital to train, observe, and study. Womack Army Hospital, located at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, has accepted eight volunteers from the Fir:,t ROTC Region for the intensive six-week program that began June 15. Each cadet works closely with a preceptor, or sponsor, who is a junior member of the nursing staff. The cadets live in a barracks located near the hospital, and while most cadets are out training on the ranges, the student nurses are learning how to care for the troops at Womack. Major Jerry A. Martin, Chief of Nursing Education and Training, is responsible for the management of the program at the hospital. Prerequisites were established by the Training and Doctrine Command for admission to the alternative program. The requirements included were that the cadets had to be volunteers; they had to complete three years of their academic curriculum at an accredited nursing school, and

Dr. Bailey incorporates many aspects of her personal experience into her classrooms. She has been to New York City to see such plays as "Amadeus," "Rose," and "Piaf." She also enjoys the opera and art galleries. All these cultural activities help her select different literature that she presents to her students. She also has non-professional hobbies, such as tennis. (Although she laughingly pointed out that she often uses the subject of tennis in her English Comp. classes!) Perhaps at some future date, Dr. Bailey will attempt her own masterpiece. One possible subject is various Newport writers, like Edith Wharton. Immensely interested in both Newport history and literature, Dr. Bailey has occasional meetings with native Newporters to discuss historical events and visitors of this fascinating town. Surely, Dr. Bailey is a welcome full-time addition. Her diverse personality will certainly help her students continue to strive to be their "best selves."

Editorial

Commuter's Mileage by JILL CRONIN and VANESSA DAVIS The life of a commuter may look great to some students, but there are disadvantages which cannot be overlooked. One of the biggest disadvantages is the "car dilemma." Commuters without cars have to walk or ride bikes. The result is wasted time going to and from classes, jobs or internships, and if it's too far, we have to stay at school all day. Another problem is food. Who's going to cook tonight? What are we going to have for dinner? It was nice going to the cafe, eating, and then leaving with the mess behind and only homework ahead. Some other disadvantages that a commuter faces are the infor-

mation, activities, and meetings which are missed because they were not known about. A commuter sometimes feels left out of school functions. Driving commuters may find themselves squeezed into cramped parking spaces or return from class to find a parking ticket pressed to their windowshield. What is to be done about this problem? Miley Hall, a freshman dorm for girls, does have a good sized parking lot located in the rear. However, this parking facility is only able to handle the residents' cars. There is little space left for the commuter to park. There is room for parking outside of O'Hare Academic Center on Ochre Point Avenue and the adjoining side streets, but there does not seem to be enough space to accommodate all the cars of the students. In time perhaps, parking facilities for the commuter will increase with those for residents. Editor's Note: 92 parking spaces are now available for Commuters Only in the Breakers' parking lot.

Krieger Continued from Page 1 that she was impressed by Salve's Social Work program, for it gives the student an "identity" as a social worker. She also likes the c 1 o s e student/faculty relationships. Ms. Krieger - teacher, wife, mother - hopes to stay at Salve for a number of years and enthusiastically affirms that she "enjoys immensely" her role at this college.

by BARBARA WELDON Political apathy is a major problem in the United States. It is also a disturbing factor in our college community. True, many are more than involved with planning and overseeing events on campus. The problem is that it is always the same few. Class elections, voting days and "voice your opinion" opportunities are ignored by many students. Is it that people just don't care, or are they misinformed? It is often said that, "It's the people who complain who never vote or get involved." There is some truth to that statement. For almost everyone has a gripe. Unfortunately, many U.S. citizens do not exercise their right to freedom of expression or their right to vote. On a smaller scale, this lack of active participation is evident on Salve's campus. Perhaps, changes are difficult to initiate, but more likely, too few make an attempt. Everyone's constructive opinions and ideas are important. You owe it to yourself, others and the community at large to voice your views. Better still, get involved and take a stand!

Hats off to Narragansett Well, thank you Narragansett Hall for the first successful dorm gathering at Salve Regina. On October 16th the Frauleins residing in Narragansett Hall hosted their first jovial bash for 1981, consisting of icy kegs and delicious sombreros: an ideal combination for the varying individual tastes. The party-goers donned their heads with some pretty interesting gear: baseball caps, cowboy hats, antique straw and silk flower hats, battle helmets, kermit frog party hats, BVD's ( or were they Fruit of the Loom?) and the

lampshade hat, of course! The event was cordially catered by the Boathcuse Pub and lively entertainment was provided by none other than "Scoop the D.J." Both contributed greatly to the success of the event. Thank you again, Narragansett! We hope to see the formation of another in the near future for those who missed the first! The right of passage enabling one to enter the festivity was an affordable $2.00 and head gear of some sort. A hearty crowd of about 150 were in attendance.

CEC Hosts Halloween Party by MARYANN FARINA On October 28, to celebrate Halloween, a party for the handicapped was given by the Council of Exceptional Children. Besides students of the Special Education program, many other students attended this enjoyable event. Costumes ranged from the most grotesque to the cutest possible. Each costume reflected the personality of the person wearing it. Music and refreshments were provided. Special Education students accompanied their respective Maher students. It was nice to see students and teachers socializing together on a level different from their educational projects. Many of the people present felt that these parties are just as important for the special needs individuals as educational projects. It makes them feel as though they are just like everyone else. It is saying, "Hey, world, we like to party, too!" In fact, feeling as though society does not accept them socially is an obstacle that they must overcome. If society has a positive attitude about their capabilities, then handicapped persons will have enough confidence to advance in society to his or her full potential.

by AURORA M. BRITO Startled by the piercing sound of the alarm clock, I grumble, turn between the sheets, and shield my ears from the noise, but the clamor ceases not. As my feet touch the rug, I feel a cold draft and contemplate going back to the still warm sheets. Even after dressing, I am chilled by the morning dampness. There is a light, misty fog over the water, and it is drizzling ever so lightly. It's Saturday, seventwenty a.m., and class - Yes, class! - begins at ten. All is quiet in the dorm. Outside, the morning air chills our lightly clad bodies. We retreat to the elevator again for sweaters, turtlenecks, long - sleeved shirts and umbrellas. Continued on Page 3

Briden Continued from Page 1 lege." He prefers his Math Methods course, because the tension and fear of math is not as severe as in other classes. George Briden's own personal CJncerns for the students' study habits are very commendable. He states that "he comes from the school which believes that hard work makes a better learning and a more concrete experience." He believes that the study habits of the students, especially if utilized in a teamwork philosophy, will help them get the most out of their studies. Welcome, Mr. George Briden.

ROTC For Nurses? Continued from Page 1 gina. Joanne's view of the program is that she is very impressed with the widespread cooperation and assistance she has received. "All the doctors go out of their way to assist us, answer questions, and explain diagnoses. Everyone has been very helpful." The future of the program will be greatly affected by the cadets' evaluations. The cadets expressed some regret at missing out on many of the Traditional Advanced Camp Activities. Cadet Talbot agreed, "I miss seeing the other cadets - not just socially, but also to see how they're doing, and what they're doing." In regard to the preparation for commission after the completion of the program, Joanne Talbot admitted: "I think overall we'll be better prepared for commissioning because we're working with other officers in a realistic setting - and on a professional basis." Not only may the Alternative Advanced Camp provide better training for the future Army nurse; it also has the potential to be a powerful recruiting tool for ROTC, whose goal it is to commission 200 Army Nurse Corps Officers by 1983. The summer program hoped to generate a wordof-mouth campaign, resulting in increased nursing student enrollment. The Alternative A d v an c e d Camp for Nursing Students is a good way to start a new program and a new career. If this new program sounds interesting, contact Joanne Talbot and talk it over with her or call Captain Jay Johnston at Providence College, 865-24 71/24 72.

Dorm Changes Hands by MONICA BRAJCZEWSKI If you haven't seen the "new" Narragansett, let me be the first to welcome you. The girls will gladly show you around. We are all very proud of what we have done for the dorm. It has always been said that a home needs a woman's touch. Well, it seems as though this statement was made especially to fit the changes Narragansett has undergone in the past two months. As you probably already know, Narragansett was left at the mercy of the male residents last year. As the time for room draw approached, we all learned that this house would be a female dormitory for the 1981-1!182 academic year. Well ... many of us reacted by wondering, "Who would want to live there?" After many prospective residents toured the dorm, however, they found that the rooms actually had potential! Beneath the beer cans, strewn papers, unmade beds and dirty clothes, the girls saw beautiful rooms rich with hanging plants, brightly colored rugs and posters. Floors had been refinished, new carpeting had been laid, pretty curtains and drapes were hung and maintenance responded to our many requests. (We even received a brand new ping pong table!) So, be sure to visit the right Narragansett soon, to see the best interior decorating Salve Regina residents have to offer.

On the weekend of October 17-18, Father Robert Knapp of Pope John Seminary gave a retr ~at at the Gatehouse. Many of UJ may knvw Father Knapp through the various programs he headed in the past. Others met him for the first time during the retreat or at liturgy and sensed his deep commitment to individual growth. The growth Father Knapp fosters runs parallel to the College's. desire to actualize our "test selves." Those who have yet to meet Father Knapp can know him through a special liturgy to be offered on December 5. The retreat focused on a reaffirmation of God's love for us. Father Knapp noted, "Yes, there is something that God cannot do. He cannot stop loving us."

Parents Entertained by JUDY O'REILLY Parents were once again treated to excellent theatre performances on Parents' Weekend. Directed by Mr. Bernard G. Masterson, two one-act plays were presented. Harold Pinter's play, "A Slight Ache," opened the bill. The cast included David Moske as Edward, Donna Mesite as Flora and Doug Bowden as the Matchseller. David's interpretation of Edward brought chills to the spine of the audience. Donna Mesite lit the stage with her presence. As Flora, she evoked many emotions from the audience. Doug Bowden as the Matchseller was a haunting presence on the stage. Many times I felt myself reacting with fear to his character. Jane Johnson and Joseph Caufield were coupled in Terrance McNally's "Next." What seemed to start out as a comedy ended as a very in-depth play of self examination. It is hard to believe that this was Jane's debut since her performance was so realistic. Joe also did not let down the audience and as usual performed superbly.

Salve Extends Arms

Miley From Newport's Gilded Age? by MARIE TAYLOR For those who live in the older houses that serve as dormitories, there is a fascination with the history b e h i n d the buildings. What the house had been and who lived there are questions that probably have crossed our minds at one time or another. To all of us, Miley Hall has been just, well . . . Miley Hall. Most people are surprised when they find out that Miley does contain, although indirectly, a little of Newport's Gilded Age fame. On the site where the modern dormitory is located there once stood one of the most beautiful estates in Newport Whiteholme. Whiteholme was the summer "cottage" of Dr. and Mrs. Henry Barton J a c o b s of Baltimore, Maryla nd. Built in 1903, it was an an architectural gem, designed by the world famous architect, John Russell Pore, creator of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C. It was built of marble white stucco with a red tiled roof and was "charmingly French," the design having followed the period of Louis XVI. The gardens were bordered by rare shrubs and provided a unique setting for the fine home. Also on the land were majestic beech trees, Siberian Ginkos, and Chi-

nese Cyprus. Surrounding the entire property was a magnificent marble wall, built in 1905. This once beautiful Newport villa, despite its elaborate appearance, was really a small, compact estate. The three story residence of brick and cement construction contained ten main rooms and six baths. The total cost of the estate was $500,000. In 1940, the house went up for auction, but due to its deteriorating condition, it sold for only $22,000. It was later bought by Mrs. Townsend Phillips, the last resident owner. Then, in the early 1960's, Salve Regina o b t a in e d Whiteholme through gift and purchase. The school utilized the land for its proposed expansion and development of a residence hall. When the estate was razed, many things considered salvageable such as doors, windows, and ornate ironwork on both the interior and exterior balconies and stairways were saved. In the architect's plans for Miley Hall, many of the valuable trees for which the estate was noted were preserved. There is evidence of this in the northeast corner of land bordering Narragansett Ave. and Ochre Point Ave. Here there are two even rows of very tall trees cutting

Richard Ill Armed, Not Loaded by MARISA GABRIELLE The Presentation of Shakespeare's Richard III by The Rhode Island Sh a k esp e are Theatre (TRIST) drags into the roaring 1920's. Although director, Bob Colonna, and the cast of TRIST attempt to fit the action of the play to the 1920's, an era of crime and gangsters, the action is stilted. Richard and his cronies lurk about in the dark shadows of a dingy theatrical supply warehouse. Somehow, s w o r d s and Tommy guns (or lack of them) never quite work well together. If Richard III is updated, parts of the dialogue must coincide with

modernization, similar to Romeo and Jullet s transformation into West Side Story. Mediocrity depicts most of the performances. Richard III, portrayed by John Chatty, overdramatizes his "Winter of Discontent" speech and monologues. Like Chatty, the cast itself performs in loud dialogue echoed with shallow characterizations. However, the bright spot in the performances is John Lien's portrayal of Henry, the Earl of Richmond. In this production, the Earl is depicted as a police lieutenant who sits behind a desk throughout most of the play.

At times when I am fretting, Melancholy and forgetting, And that sometime spreeful Nature gone awry, I find myself in anguish, Almost awestruck by my panic, For my introspection 'guises But one sigh. This sigh is like the hollow howls Which echo in vast fields; Its lonely autumn whipping winds Torment unstable shields. Temptation is the tempter's tool; I ponder it and sigh. And with this sigh salvation speaks, But where is it and why 1 Is it Ha or is it 11 At times my soul is loving, Unbeguiling and inspiring, And the woeful world Brings not a, tear to I. I feel life's tender pleasures Which do move me with her splendors, And this rapture Brings a gentle, peaceful sigh. This sigh is like the happy howls, Which fill a festive feast; Its rowdy roars, its shakes and soars Contenting savage beast. The tempter knocks at times like these, Both good and bad, but why '!

by CANDACE ALMGREN This year with Rhode Island's hospitals in desperate need of blood, urgent cries were answered by the Salve Community. On October 7, eighty-four individuals offered and sixty-six pints were actually donated. The blood drive is an activity coordinated by Sr. Mary Rosalind. This month Ms. Mary K. Connell, a nurse practioner who oversaw the operation, appeared pleased with the resulting collection as it met with her expectations. Eight qualified nurses collected the blood from participants located in the O'Hare commuter lounge. Participants themselves ranged from numerous first-time donors to gallon donors. Yet, all were able to experience the feeling of accomplishment in the extension of self to others in need. The next on-campus blood drive is scheduled for December 10.

'Digger' Carries Ball by MARYANN FARINA As the soccer season comes to a close, one person stands out as one of the best goalies that the Salve soccer team has ever had; he is Michael Hanley, more commonly known as "J;:>igger." Taking a good lo~k at Mike's a thletic abilities, one might wonder why he chose Salve Regina College. "This school has a great potential to grow because it is a small college," says Mike, a junior Ma nagement major. "The athletic department has come a long way since I've been here at Salve," he said. The soccer team has experienced a disappointing season this year. When asked about the sea-

Men Conclude Soccer Season

by CLARE AVERBACH The women's varsity tennis team's 1981 season has drawn to a close with a record of 1-5-0. Inclement weather, lack of consistent practices and cancellation of matches were instrumental in determining the disappointing outcome of the season. The focal point of the season was the R.I. A.I.A.W. State Tournament on October ninth to the eleventh at Providence College and Rhode Island College. Salve competed against excellent teams from U.R.I., Brown, P.C., R.I.C. and Bryant. Salve lost their first round matches in both singles and doubles and went into the consolation. Salve's number one doubles team of freshmen Debbie Branton and Melissa Stanton, however, played very well and extended U.R.I.'s number three doubles team to three sets in the main draw. Branton and Stanton played a good season of tennis this Fall and are two of the promising freshmen, along with Helen McGee, who have the potential to develop into strong competitors. Senior Clare Averbach, playing at the number three position, won her first round consolation match, but returned the next morning to the P.C. courts to lose to P.C.'s consistent number three player in straight sets. The season has been short and somewhat frustrating, but with the Carey courts to be resurfaced this winter and a young, developing team under his wing, Coach Paul Cardoza is looking forward to the Fall of 1982.

Mike "Digger·• Hanley son, Mike came up with s :;me interesting and informative answers. "This is really a le1rning season for the soccer team since the defense lacks playing experienc:!," he commented. At the beginning of the soccer season, the players had only two days of practice for the first game. "I felt we needed more time to get properly prepared for the season," Mike said. Although the team record has not been a winning one, he thinks that next year's soccer team has an optimistic outlook, due to the playing experience of freshmen and sophomores. Salve is fortunate to have a multi-talented athlete like Mike whose dedication and enthusiasm exemplifies a truly successful athlete.

Fullback Jim Santoro kicks at net. The men's varsity soccer team has ended their 1981 Fall season with both a disappointnig record and a renewed determination for the 1982 season.

Tennis Tournament

Nautilus Spotlights Students by SUSAN WILLIS On October 31, while most of his friends at Salve were completing last minute costume details, Gerald Willis was in Montreal, Canada where his mind was far from anticipating the traditional Halloween masquerades. Gerald, a freshman, and his teammates from New England, New York and New Jersey competed in a dual weightlifting meet against Quebec. Although the Americans lost the competition by a mere four points, Gerald handed the Canadians a ''bag of Halloween tricks" when he placed first in the light heavyweight division. He accomplished this by snatching 270 pounds and by cleaning and jerking 347 pounds. Gerald has trained with national champions and olympians and has competed for three years. He holds state, regional and national records and hopes to represent Salve Regina College in the NCAA championships later this year. Presently, he is very interested in starting a weightlifting club. Any interested people may contact Gerald or the Athletic Department.

Women's Soccer Hopeful by SUSAN WILLIS The women's varsity soccer team story began last fall when a group of students organized Salve's first women's club soccer team. As the players departed for the summer, Athletic Director Paul Cardoza announced the genesis of a varsity team. In the fall of '81, a coach (former Salve men's varsity standout Paul Kielbasa) and about twenty women stepped onto the field. Some players were quite skilled; others were just beginning. Yet, those who endured the seemingly endless laps of running and the sometimes frustrating hours of drills were enthusiastic and serious about the team's success now and in the future. The league in which Salve competed (Division III) is composed of larger schools with more developed athletic facilities and programs, such as URI, RIC, Bryant College and Providence College. On October 7th Salve hosted URI at the Wetmore Field and lost, 0-4. URI's tall center forward spearheaded their offense with at least 15 head shots, but Salve had several shots on goal and played fairly well. Three days later, a powerful and talented squad from Plymouth State demolished Salve despite numerous saves by Salve's goalie. Virtually the entire game was controlled by Plymouth, allowing Salve very few shots on net. Two weeks later, Salve travelled to Bryant College and surprised the opposition by aggressively moving the ball down the

Forward Connie Bettencourt beats URI to the ball. wings. Bryant got off to a good start and scored two fluke goals within the first 15 minutes, but Salve came back with one goal by the center forward just before the end of the first half. Unfortunately, Bryant scored two more goals (one on a penalty shot) and sent Salve home with another defeat. It is hoped that next fall will be a successful season for these determined athletes. The talent of the team lies in the foundation it has built in just seven weeks of practice and competition. Playing such teams as Plymouth State, URI and PC was startling to a first year squad, but was nonetheless a strengthening venture and resulted in learning, improvement and an eagerness for 1982 competition.
