Cabrini College, Radnor, Pa.

Reach out through Cabrini project by Edda Pitassi Plans for "Project Outreach" are now being formulated whereby Cabrini students can volunteer for various professional positions in Cabrini in~titutions in America and around the world. Suzanne Tciton Zurek, lecturer in religion , and Dr. Joseph Romano, philosophy department chairperson, are working on the proposal. They hope to involve other faculty members. ''Project Outreach" has two objectives : -to offer students a broad base of experiences in which to use and develop their professional skills; and -most importantly, to provide students with an opportunity to be of genuine Christian service to the community. According to the proposal, the project could begin as a summer pilot program. Gr<1du<1lly,it would develop into a tull program in which students mav volunteer for a sum mer, a semester, or a school year, and receive academic credit tor their in-service experiences. "The students and faculty don't know how world wide the M.S.C. order (the Cabrini sisters) is, the services and facilities it provides around the world," said Dr. Romano. In Europe alone, Cabrini service institutions are found in Rome, Genoa, Sicily, Switzerland, London, Paris, Madrid, Luxemoourg. Missions are also found in Australia, Central America, Argentina, Brazil, Lebanon, Africa and Montreal, Canada.

In America there are missions in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Seattle and New Orleans. The kinds of services provided in all these areas include nurse's aid programs, hospital nutritional planning, teaching and working with handicapped children, special care for the aged, tutorial programs, 0<1y care services and social work. As part of the proposal, the sisters will provide room and board, a small stipend, and return transportation for the student. ::itudents will be responsible for managing transportation to the assignment and the cost of health and accident insurance . Mrs. Zurek is looking into some foundations for funds. Both she and Dr. Romano " want to have students for next summer, doing pr work, hospital work, teaching catechism. There should be a spot for all talents," they said. •Dr. Margaret Reher , religion department chairperson, described the "mythical student" as ibe wgi cab serve ub abt fuekd-language, sociology, religion, science, education- -and who will not lose academic credit. Mrs. Irene Rachat, assistant professor, plans to speak to her language classes about the cultural shock of "not finding a bathroom in every room or on every floor." While "Project Outreach" is still in the planning stages, Dr. Romano and Mrs. Zurek plan a massive publicity campaign as soon as firm commitments are received from Cabrini institutions.

Studentsquiz Dean Brown by LorraineMatteo Dr. Dorothy Brown, vice president for academic affairs, met with the student body on September 28, at the invitation of the Student Government Association. Dr. Brown answered questions about credits, scheduling, religion as a general education requirement and academic advisement. The most significant problem was that students thought that they paid for 18 credits per semester, while in freshmen year they are assigned only 16 credits. Students wanted to use these unused credits later. Dr. Brown pointed out that students, in fact, pay for 130 credits or 16Âź credits per semester . Those who take 18 credits actually get extra credit for their money. She is considering the possibility of charging per credit . She estimates that the college would get $30,000 to $40,000 extra revenue . Voter registration was the first item discussed by Mr. Arthur R. Lewis, chairman of the Republican Party in Radnor Township. Mr. Lewis explained to students the role of a committee person and their responsibilities. Ms. Betty Corman, Democratic committeeperson, then explained to students the procedures for registering and voting. Any student wanting more information about the coming election should visit Democratic Headquarters above the Ladybug shop on North Wayne Avenue, she said, or visit the Republican Headquarters on the corner of North Wayne Avenue.

Three join health staff

Librarychecks borrowers to prevent losses

by Cynthia DeRitis

Sister Dorcas Mann, M.S.C. along with students Harry Penny and Pat Loggia have been appointed to Cabrini College Health Services Staff. Sister Dorcas, a registered nurse, was stationed at St. Frances Xavier Cabrini Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. She will be assisting Mrs. Mary Mulligan with her duties as school nurse. In addition to her work with the Health Services, Sister will be studying Psychology. Students Harry Penny and Pat Loggia will be working in cooperation with Sister Dorcas and Mrs. Mulligan in the Health Services Department. Harry Penny, a senior, is a Pre-Med major. He was commissioned by the Army last June and has a three-year education deferment for his studies in Pre-Medicine. He took a First Aid course with the American Red Cross. He also worked 48 hours this summer with a doctor, which served as credit for his Science Field Study. Pat Loggia, a junior, is a Science major. She took three courses in First Aid. They are in: Standard and Advanced Fi rs t Aid, CArdiac Pu I-mo nary Resusitation and Emergency Childbirth, in which she's certified. Pat served on an ambulance crew for two years and she was required to train with the crew and learn the use of the equipment. Harry and Pat are qualified to treat emergency cases on campus when Mrs. Mu1Er,c1n Jl1<l Sister Dcrcas are not available, but they aR not permitted to gfveprescriptions.

Student body meeting (continued from page 1)

Ray Crew '77, because of -a time factor, could only briefly mention a proposal for increased security and a plan to restructure the Speaker's Fund. As a result Ray Crew suggested that general student body meetings be held twice a month as opposed to once a month. The topics for the next meeting will include security and the SpeaFund. Dean Brown suggested that at this tiem Financial Aid could also be discussed.

by Beth' Dunn

"May I check your pocketbook and notebook, please?" If you have used the Cabrini Library this semester, you probably heard those words as you le'ft. A student on the work study program is now stationed at the library door. This prevents books and periodicals being taken without being checked out first. Mrs. Carolyn Gough, head librarian, has explained how necessary this system is. Last year alone, the library suffered an $8,000 loss of books. Many periodicals were also taken. It is expensive as well as time-consuming to order replacements.

It may seem an inconvenience to have your belongings checked each time you leave the library. However, Cabrini is not ~e first college to institute this type of security. St. Joseph's College has installed an electronic detection device at the library's exit. When a student carries an electronically sensitized book or periodical from the library, an alarm rings, identifying the culprit. The University of Pennsylvania, University of Delaware and Penn State have also taken security measures to protect their library books.

Denton, Saul, Zurek assume new positions by Gene f.lutter, Sue O'Hagan, Barbara Polomano

"Students need more responsibility and concern. I plan to encourage the students to help in the running of the building." This is the view of Nancy Denton,the new director of resident life at Woodcrest. Last year, Ms. Denton was the head resident of Woodcrest. "I like to listen to student ideas and 'opinions. I'm someone who can help them achieve their goals." Ms. Denton feels there is a two fold purpose to the residency program : "to provide an atmosphere for student growth and maturity and to provide a place to live while they are studying." Before corning to Cabrini, Ms. Denton was employed as a sociology teacher at Wilson College in Chambersberg. Two academic changes were made this summer. Dr. Jerry Zurek has been named chairperson of the English-Communication Department. His appointment, announced late in August, came about after consultation of the various memb~rs of the English Department. The spot in the English Department became available upon Dr. Frank Saul's appointment as the

head of the Evening Division here at Cabrini. Dr. Zurek says that the burden of his job has been made a bit lighter already. As of the middle of September, the Pennsylvania Department of Education granted its approval upon the Communications certification program. Cabrini C.ollege secondary education-communications majors are now able to receive a five year certification in the program. Dr. Frank Saul has been appointed Director of the Evening and Summer Divisions of Cabrini College. Formerly Chairman of the English Department, Dr. Saul envisions a closer integration of the Evening and Summer Divisions of Cabrini with the day classes. In discussing the trend of many colleges toward continuing education, there •is a great emphasis among women, because their options in choosing life styles have expanded. Dr. Saul feels that "men ¡and women are askingfor help in making choices and in knowing what options are available; they are seeking direction." Dr. Saul sees helping these people as part of his job.

Food Complaints

Return

Can we have better food

?•

Loquitur invites comments by Janet Gennaro

by Fron MocDonol<I Now that everyone is settled in school again, you've rearranged your room, and eaten all of Mom's cookies, its time to face that bitter fact: Cabrini is having food. problems again. You noticed that I say again. This is because meals at Cabrini have become a problem as perennial as the seasons, or at least a constant source of dinner conversation. After all, if you can't eat the food, you might as well talk about it. Sometimes its even gotten to the point where people come to dinner to see what it is they can't eat tonight instead of what there is to eat . One point to be made is the fact that no one expects Mom's home cooking .. But even the worst cook doesn't offer a steady diet of overcooked or undercooked hamburger and chicken. Cabrini is a small school. Dinners average, I would guess, between 150 and 200 people. Is it that hard to provide a little variety for so few people? What would happen if we were Penn State? · 5.iga has their usual excuses, most of which are valid. Money is tight, prices go higner everyday and it is hard to find somthing that everyone likes. . And, Saga does go out of its way to provide Cabrini with some very nice dinners. The holiday dinners are always special, and once in awhile we

even get a special dinner when its nota holiday. Saga even goes out of its way_ to be extra helpful with Parent's Weekend. All of these are very nice gestures and the students appreciate them. What the students do not appreciate is going in day after day and not being able to eat poorly prepared food. In my opinion, there is no excuse for food that is overcooked, undercooked or violated in any other way. Current violations include dead flies found in potato salad and cold foods such as macaroni salad that has been left out so long that it acquires a dull yellow ·shade. Food that has been overcooked, or undercooked is simply the result of improper planning and poor attention. SGA has a food committee and Saga works well with this committee. They receive suggestions and give answers to complaints when they can, and usually do whatever they can to solve problems. It seems however, that the food preparation problem returns again and again. Sage gets the message for awhile and then goes back to their · old ways until the food gets so bad that people have to resort to ice cream_ and bread to survive. So Sage, the students ask again, hopefully for the last time. Please be more careful about food preparation.

India Mission offer thanks Letter to the Editor In the spring of 1976, Cabrini. College students organized a fund raiser to benefit-Father Rudy's mission in India. The following letter, sent to Lori Ostrowski ('76) is addressed to the college community.

Dear Miss Ostrowski, Thank you very much for your kind letter and the checque along with it. In a letter which he hod written to me a few weeks before his death, Father Rudy had promised that he would

continue to help the mission in Indio whoteYer may be the changed ' circumstances. The mission in India was his 'first and best love'. Now I see that he is keeping his promise! Our sincere thanks to -you and all the organizers of "Rooymons Memorial Week". We remember you all in our doily prayers. I hope to visit his grove when I visit the states to attend our General Chapter. With every good wish, Yours sincerely, Theophane. 0 . Praem.

I am writing in response to feedback I received concerning the first fallsemester edition of the loqu/tur. Unfortunately, most of the feedback was negative. More unfortunate is the fact that no one offered any constructive suggestions on how Loquitur could be improved to meet their standards. The purpose of the loquitur is to serve the Cabrini campus community. · It is not a private interest, althou~ some members of the campus community would like to believe that it is. In order to serve the community, we must know what you want. Without communication between staff and readers, the efforts of the staff to please the readers are futile. If you have a complaint about Loquitur don't tell it to the lunchtable, or your roommate, or your mother. What good does that do? Tell us! The loquitur mailbox is easily accessible to everyone, and we welcome all comments. Through your suggestions we can improve the paper to make it what it should be, what you want it to be.

Cabrini's Choice FORD: by Barbara McHugh

November and the months previous to it are always hectic t imes in an election year. The political world is full of tensions what with new social and economic issues popping up and old issues of importance still in the foreground . : But the political world itself is not the only place feeling pressure. What about at Cabrini? How do our students feel about the candidates and about the debates? For a brief sketch of the candidates, I did a little research on the opinions of each. While Carter proposes increased employment through a budget to promote energ y research and develo pm ent , he also calls fo r a balanced budget in sta ble times. President Ford constantly reinforces the positive aspects of his past term by stating that the budget and inflation have been reduced since 1975. Carter proposes a comprehensive health care system for the country to be set up over a four year period. Ford says he does see a need for federal aid in certain cases. What does each candidate really stand for in his platform? That is something t hat requires alot of research and also st rictly fo llowing the cam paigns from t he very beginnin g. If you are registered to vot e, you might have your mind made up already . The Loquitur polled 60 Cabrini College students, from freshmen to seniors, a fair sampling of the student body. Here are the results: Out of 14 freshmen that were polled, 8 were for Ford , 4 for Carter, one was undecided and one said that he would have voted for Reagan, had he won the nomination . Out of 12 sophomores, 5 were for Ford, 4 were for Carter and 3 were undecided. Out of 12 juniors polled, 10 were for Ford, 2 were for Carter and one was for a third party candidate. Seniors had 12 class members polled, 7 for Ford, 4 for Carter and one undecided . These statistics in totality show that the majority of the polled students were for Ford. The televised debates are a factor that help make a voter's mind up. Walter Williams, a Sophomore, watched the debates on television, but he did not really change his mind because of them . "It was just really poor in a political sense. It wasn't like past presidential

debates," Walt said . He explained that although his decision was not based entirely on the debates, he was hoping to gain information from them . Colleen O'8rien, a Freshman, said that the debates really did not change her mind , but she wished that Carter had "come off a little bit stronger ." Cynthia Cunningham, a Junior , said, "Yes, the debates did change my mind . I

had a lot more confidence in Carter before I saw the debates." Cynthi_~ explained that she would have liked to see more direct communication between the candidates, rather than as much audience participation as there was in the debate. This is a brief sketch of how some students feel about this political season. What about you??

Jimmy,Teddy and me at the Garden by Edda Pitassi

The Carter smile is getting wider.

July 14, 1976: The Democratic National Convention, Madison Square Garden, New York City, and I was there. With a friend's press pass, I roamed the Garden at will until security stopped me. There were Sen. Ted Kennedy and Ethel Kennedy, both beautifully tanned, smiling and waving at the crowd. I raised my camera to take their picture (I was only a few feet away) when reporters and cameramen swooped down around me . I was lost in the shuffle and never got a second chance . Everywhere I turned, I saw the medi a. Re porters , w ith y e llow or red identificatio n ta gs ha nging fro m their necks, stood at telephones lined up on the walls and called in stories to hometown newspapers. Peeking behind a curtain, I saw Candice Bergen, fashion model turned photo- journalist, busily transcribing notes at a typewriter . Wire, miles of wire, covered the Garden. My eyes followed it from the ceiling, to the walls, to the floor. Wire was attached to shoulders carrying large black cameras. It coil ed aro und necks, and was insert ed in eafs . All th ose head phones on human skulls made me th ink of flying saucers and visiting Martians . On the convention floor itself, a thin veil of smoke was beginning to emerge. Lots of red, white and blue balloons were released from some invisible source. Meanwhile, a speaker at the podium was saying that his party would "put some teeth in our government." The Carter smile was getting wider.

Edda Pitassi received a _graduationcertificate for her participation in the 1976 Magazine Intern Program.

to comment on some of her hobbies, she replied: "My primary hobby in life is being happy and making other people happy ." Pia Carusi '79, was asked if she had any unusual hobbies and she quickly retorted: "I come to this school, that's an unusual hobby!" So no matter what it is, whether it's as exciting as Judy Guido's action- packed white-watering, as lovely as Leslie Hickman's campus-famous songs, or as captivating as Rosalind Jordon' s scenic picture-postcards, everybody has a hobby of some kind or another .

Have some free time?

A Visitor by Lorraine Matteo

by Ron Kotkocin

AUTHOR'S NOTE: As an aid to the reader, I suggest that you read the scrambled sentences backwards. I entered through a small doorway and was called to a table, "Tey tekcit ruoy yub uoy did?" I couldn't understand the language of the natives but I think they were trying to kidnap me. They grabbed me by the arm. While tugging at it they continued to babble on, "Tey tekcit ruoy yub uoy did?" I just nodded and moved

on.

Nearly everyone knows that the extremely industrious students at Cabrini spend 92.7% of their time indulging in their studies. Not everyone knows however, how the students occupy themselves during the remaining 7 .3%. In his urgent quest to unmask this great secret, this reporter came across a number of unusual, and some not so unusual,

pastimes. A number of people have similar interests. Freshmen Debbie Paladino, Stephanie Graham, and Maureen De Leo, for example, all engage in crewel work. No, they're not mean people, they simply enjoy sewing. Herb Erbe '7.8, and Ed Stevens '78, enjoy pistol and target shooting . Colleen O'Brien '80, and Joe Reilly '78, dabble (or should 1¡ say babble) in sign language. But sign language 1s only secondary to Joe's primary hobby, which is sarcasm. "It's really an art, but it's also a hobby," says Joe of his favorite pastime. Colleen also has an impressive collection of plants. The versatile Walt Williams'79, scuba dives, and both he and Jo Ann Dattalo '78, are expert surfers. Anne Callaghan '80, and Pattie Pratico '80, are into shell collecting. Of course Pattie also has a number of other favorites such as beer can, matchbook, ash tray, and ticket stub collecting. One of the more unusual hobbies on

campus is fencing. Unlike centercity hoods though, Brian Gould '80, uses a foil and mask. Brian has been fencing for over ten years and there is no question about his ability. Greg Pasquarello '77, practices yoga quite frequently. Greg says, "Yoga relaxes the mind through the body and thus develops a better all around student." Harry Penny '78, is not only an excellent trumpeter, but he also transcribes his own music. When this reporter inquired about all the hand -written notes, Harry remarked: "I know what you're thinking. It's as bad as the monks!" But all kidding aside, Harry says that he arranges his own music because "I enjoy it." Many people enjoy making ceramics, but few practice the ancient technique of pottery-making as Dale Glucksman '80, does. Ever since Dale has had her: wheel, she has been making all sorts of ornamental objects. Dale says, "When you make something on a wheel it's called throwing a pot." Well I wouldn't want to be there while Dale is throwing pots around, but it certainly would be interesting to watch her sometime . One of the most beautiful remarks came from Marla DePolo '80, when asked (continued on page 5)

Several of the students as they were called stood before a large square box. They all inserted small, silver disks and pushed buttons. Immediately loud noises rushed forth. This device was a xobekuj. Then they all walked to a line to receive food. The combinations they ate were the craziest thing I have ever seen Maple syrup on potatoes, peanut butter with lettuce, and French fries with ice cream. Some fixed plates with special separate sections for vegtables and meats. Others mixed everything all together. I believe the excuse they gave was, "Yaw yna ecalp emas eht ot gniog Ila s'ti." Whatever that means. They drank strange concoctions. One swallowed coffee with lemon. Another soda with hananas and ict: cream. I watctrea another make a strange red potion: She took a glass with ice and added a slice of lemon. Then she added an inch of something called etirps . Followed by half an inch of lemon juice and the remainder of the glass was filled with a red juice. It was called a LTWSS. An abbreviation for a "Rouqil eht tuohtiw gnils eropagnis." Very weird. Very weird, indeed. The seating arrangement of this group was also a little hard to understand. The tables were round and seated eight. However, these stneduts insisted on cramming twenty of themselves at a table leaving some tables without chairs. One of the older looking stneduts wears a white uniform and she is addressed as esrun. She gives the younger stneduts some type of injection . I wonder if this aids the younger stneduts digestion? The rest of the older natives sit secluded from the younger ones. I believe they are fearful of contaminatio,1 from (continued on page 8)

A new A. A. A thrill of victory or • IS formed agony of defeat. • • by Harold Wilson

Cabrini 's second Athletic Association held its first meeting on September 30, 1976 in the . gym. Presiding over the meeting was its organizer, Bernadette McCabe. The meeting consisted of finalizing the constitution and the election of officers . The officers of the Athletic Association for the 1976-77 academic year are : President - Bernadette McCabe, Vice President - Sally Ford, Secretary Nancy Holland, Treasurer - Hal Willard. The purpose of the Athletic Association is to provide activities for students which foster a sense of unity, healthy competition and improving friendly relations. In order to accomplish these goals the A.A. has organized various intramural co-ed teams and trips. The intramural team sports will consist of volleyball, basketball, flag football, softball, and speedball. Some of the possible activities may be a trip to Jamaica during the Easter holidays, or camping trips, or ski weekends . In addition to these activities the Athletic Association will host an annual faculty-student picnic and softball game. The A.A. will also sponsor an annual Beef and Brew party to show support for the varsity and j.v. basketball teams. This year's celebration will be held at the American Legion Post on October 29, 1976. The cost of participation is $5.00 per person. Unlike Cabrini's first Athletic Association, which was organized approximately four or five years ago, its' successor is co-ed and is officially a club as of September 20, 1976. The moderators for the revived association are Jolyon Girard, assistant professor of history, and Mrs. Helen Goodwin.

by Joan Buonanno The Cabrini women's volleyball team scrimmaged the team from Our Lady of Angels on September 21 and came up on top in all the games played . OLA was no competition for Cabrini as compared to the lmmaculata team. Up against the Mighty Macs at their opening game of the season, and playing amongst an enthusiastic crowd of bystanders, Cabrini did an excellent job, according to coaches Barbara Gould and Mrs. Goodwin. The Cabrini varsity and jumor varsity lost to lmmaculata, yet gained the experience of playing a high caliber team. The Cabrini squad met Chestnut Hill on their court on September 28, only to edge a varsity victory in the first game

16-14, and volley to a 15-8 victory in the second game. Chestnut Hill, however, came back to defeat our junior varsity. The team from Harcum Junior College was rattled by Cabrini who wrapped up both games successfully. Starting off the season as varsity members are: Andrea Bedhard, Debbie Brown, Linda Finocchario, Nancy Holland, Jane Ellen Lutz, Kathy Shields, and Gina Taddei. The junior varsity includes: Judy Clay, Sue Fichera, Denise Glover, Louise Humes, Kathy Smith, Sue Snyder, and Michelle Tesauro. Both coaches assure team members that lineups are subject to change upon improvement of performance.

What is it:

Clinic or Team by Maureen Larkin Along with the beginnings of a soccer clinic at Cabrini, the possibility of a soccer team is also being considered . According to Dr. Carter Craigie, the coach of the clinic, the best eleven players from the clinic who play together well as a team , will represent Cabrini. However, if the coach of the opposing team agrees, open substitution will take place. This means, other members of the team can be substituted in and out of the

game during the playing period. By allowing this, everyone who came to the clinic regularly will also be able to participate in the games. No definite schedule has been made However, some of the games that the soccer team will be playing will be against Valley Forge Military Academy and Pinebrook College. Students are urged to attend these games and cheer the team on to victory .
