SGA plans to open lines of communication by Francine M. Kuterbach
In a very close run-off election, Robin Larkins and Marie Hunsberger defeated Brian Jensen and Gerard Lennon for the positions of president and vice president of the Student Government Association. The final vote, according to Sulamon Allyn, SGA vice-president, was 119 to 123. Allyn said, "Both tickets were well qualified. If we didn't go by the majority vote, we would be having run-offs for the rest of the semester.'' When asked how she would unite the students who didn't support her, Larkins replied, "Basically the platforms were similar in nature. Also, there was no animosity between the candidates." Larkins and Hunsberger have big plans for their term in office. First on the list, according to Larkins, is opening the lines of communication between administration, faculty and students. "We want to make SGA the central point of communication." Specifically, Larkins and Hunsberger are planning to: have a member in the SGA office at all times, make agendas and minutes at all SGA meetings mandatory, demand minutes from all club meetings to be kept on file and make better use of SGA meetings, rather than have them
be announcements of social activities. Larkins said, "We want to isolate the potential and work on the strength of why people come to Cabrini and build on that." Hunsberger has never served on the SGA, however she said she is willing to learn. "Robin knows a lot about SGA and I'm a hard worker. I can learn from her." In the other executive board run-off
election, Jean Findlay defeated Tom DiRusso for the job of treasurer. Findlay siad, "I want to see a workability on the part of the SGA board." The job of the treasurer is to handle class funds and make financial records available to the Executive Board. Lynn Trasferini was elected to be recording secretary. She will be responsible for taking minutes at the SGA meetings and keeping them on

permanent record. Trasferini commented on her new position, "We need some vitality and spontaneity in this job." Elected to the position of corresponding secretary was Ann Belsky. Belsky said she will "get students' ideas effectively back and forth to the SGA." She will be responsible for handling all written communication of the SGA and the student body . Lou Klock ran unopposed as social activities chairperson. Klock said he was appalled that no one else ran for the position. "I'm going to expect a lot of people to come to me and tell me what they want.'' Klock's two assistants are Chris Corcoran and Bert Siwak. Together, the three of them will try to plan more social activities, both on and off campus. Siwak said, "We've run the well dry. Wehavetotapelsewhere." Some activities mentioned by Siwak and Corcoran were: movies on a Tuesday night, going to a Phillies game, outdoor concerts and activities shared with other !oral campuses. Siwak commented, "We have 110 acres let's use them." The group stressed student participation in all SGA's activities. Larkins stated, "You don't have to _be a member of SGA to get involved."

Looking for dedication With the recent election of RA's and SGA executive board members, we should be able to look to our new leaders for dedication and consistency. When the fanfare dies down and the hard work begins, this is the testing ground for a new leader. We must demand from them an open door, a willing hand and a loud voice to the administration. A key factor in a good leader is the ability to motivate students. If our leaders are not motivated, how can we expect the student to be? Leaders must generate enthusiasm among the student body. They must be the ones to take the initiative and act in the best way possible

in our new leaders to benefit the student. Most importantly, our leaders must be able to listen. They must seek our the unhappy student, find out where the problems are on campus, question injustices, and be aware of them. Although it may be easier, our leaders shouldn't wait for student concerns to be brought to them; they should go out and find what the trouble is. Then they must act upon the wrongs and try to right them: They must improve campus life by getting perspectives from the student body. They must ask us what we want and then work towards achieving it.
Start considering ways to better the world During a period in history when we seem to spend more time devising ways of destroying one another, it would be a wise idea to start considering ways to better the world. As young Americans about to enter the "real world," we have the responsibility and obligation to voice how our government portrays itself to the rest of the world. The most crucial issue today is the ever ominous presence of nuclear arms. Our nation has a stockpile of over 10,000 nuclear devices. That number is staggering compared to the approximately 400 nuclear devices needed to wipe out the Soviet Union. Our defense budget is ten times larger than our world development assistance. Military splmding continues to rise when our unemployment rate continues to increase. We are literally starving our poor to death with nuclear arms by simply using the funds for food and .shelter to continue building our defense systems - defense systems that, if ever used, would destroy human life. The preoccupation with the "communist threat" has made our government divert the money so needed for human services into destruction devices. President Reagan should realize that national security is more than the amount of missiles we have targeted at the other guy. National security concerns itself with the internal strength
LETTERS Two viewpoints To the Editor:
I'm responding to the letters that were written condemning Brian Jensen's Viewpoint. (4/ 5/ 83) What the letters seemed to overlook was this obvious fact. This was Brian's vi!!,wpoint and his column. I am not defending what Brian said, I am defending his right to say it. Open up the Inquirer or the Daily News. Lot>k at the articles by Jim Bishop , Chuck Stone, or Paul Harvey. Are they, too, exhibiting a "blatant misuse of power?" Everyone in America has a right to their own space. What would journalism be without the editorials? I hope I never see the day when opinion are silenced just because they ideas don't conform to the views of the majority. Francine Kuterbach To the Editor: This is in response to some letters that appeared in the 4/5/83 edition of the Loquitor concerning a Viewpoint editorial. First of all, it is nice to know that people read the newspaper, and I respect the people that expressed their opinion. The author of one letter listed her credentials, and I was quite impressed that a person of such high caliber would bother taking the time to write the letter. Obviously, this is a very busy person. Even though I had a hard time keeping the point in mind,
I thoroughly enjoyed it. A second letter stated the fact that prejudice stems from ignorance. I agree with this, and also would like to point out the fact that ignorance can stem from prejudice, and this letter was a perfect example of this. I was amazed at the fact that op this same page appeared a retraction written by the author of the original Viewpoint, apologizing to "any of those I offended by my poor articulation." When a person apologizes to another, it is up to the other person to accept the apology. And by accepting the apology, this person supposedly rids himself of all feelings of discontentment toward the other person. This "process" is called forgiveness, and supposedly it is a common practice in Catholic institutions. The intentions of these authors in writing these letters are questionable. Granted, the letters did appear in the same issue as the retraction, and the authors might have been unaware of the retraction. Finally, one author felt that the worst thing about the editorial of 3/18/83 was the fact that the incoming freshmen received it, and this author questioned the impression it would leave them with. I agree with this author, and feel it is a shame that the freshmen weren't left with an issue of higher quality, like that of 4/ 5/83. Sincerely, Gerard Lennon
Voting problems Dear Editor: As a concerned student at Cabrini College, I must speak out against the.
of the country. When a country is prosperous and all its citizens can maintain their ·pride as Americans, then a country is secure. To throw down our arms completely is ludicrous. It is virtually impossible to believe in a total unilateral disarmament. Neither side trusts each other enough to come to a complete nuclear freeze. We must first gain better relationships with other countries. This is why we, as students and young Americans, should urge our government to discontinue the manufacturing of any future nuclear devices. We encourage our scientists to continue investigating the technological advancements for the benefit of the world . If there must be national security, then let there be a nuclear balance on both sides. Our government should take the necessary precautions in case of any unjust attack. However, the actual use of any of these devices will result in nothing but death, destructions and regrets from both sides. We must also educate those people who are not aware of the total uselessness of continuing the nuclear arms race. We must use all our channels of communication to express our feelings and concerns about an issue that involves the entire globe. It is senseless to spend so much money and brilliant technology on something that will never, never give the world any foreseeable benefits. recent SGA elections. I have two points to make and I will attempt to be brief. I have no problem with the winners. I believe they will do an excellent job and make SGA a strong organization. The problem with the election comes from the way it was initiated. First, I would like to point out the injustice -done to the commuters, many of whom didn't even know the election was going on. With the ballot box in the cafeteria, seldom used by the commuters, and a lack of publicity concerning the election, the commuter vote was practically excluded said election. Also, the ballot box often closed at 12: 30, which is only five minutes after the 12: 25 classes let

out. Secondly, I want to say I am disappointed with the turnout for these elections. Those who say their vote doesn't count are foolish. Four votes separated Jensen and Larkins in the run-off, and with a few more votes Larkin could have won the original election. Every vote counts. Those who say they do not know the candidates should have been at the speeches or made an effort to talk to the various candidates. It is better to abstain than not to vote. Show your support for your school. Stand up and let the administration know we care. With class elections coming up, let's see a change in this voter apathy. VOTE!! John C. Doyle, III

It's hard to believe it, but we are actually winding down yet another academic year . There are only a few weeks left. Not long from now finals will be over, the dorms will empty out, and the 1983 graduates will be walking down the aisle--another year over . At Spring Convocation and in this issue of Loquitur we recognize the efforts of the outstanding students in the class of 1983 noting those who were awarded Who's Who Among American Colleges and Universities. Tonight all the seniors are looking forward to the annual Sophomore / Senior Farewell where we thank all the members of the class of 83 by giving them a send off that, hopefully, they will never forget. Coming down to the wire, we all find some time to reflect on the year, recognizing an end and congratulating those who have played a role in the many experiences of the past. That's why we have things like Who's Who and Sophomore/Senior Farewell. Such awards and events are products of recognition that attempt to show that the efforts of many individuals are certainly appreciated. We try in many ways to say "Thank you," and "You will be missed." It's hard to believe that it is almost that time of the year again already. I remember last year's closing festivities like it was yesterday. The thing that I remember the most however, was not the awards, and not even Sophomore/Senior Farewell. It was the day

of graduation. The hustle and bustle activities of the last few weeks had ended, many students had gone home, and it was time for the graduates to receive their diplomas. I remember very c-learly watching the people that I had known well in that class walking up and receiving their degrees. Certainly, it was a big day for them . Then the ceremonies ended and the graduates split up onto the Mansion lawn to talk with their parents, relatives and friends. It was over. The graduates said goodbye to each other with a few tears here and there and departed. Everyone went their separate way. It really struck me the way it happened. There just wasn't enough time to say goodbye to everyone. With the emotional fervor of the previous weeks I guess that I expected more. It was truly anticlimactic. I guess that's why I'm stressing this recognition thing. It's only a matter of weeks now when the people, many of whom have spent the last four years together in this small world of Cabrini College, will be leaving us. That's important. Let's all have a blast t~night at Sophomore / Senior Farewell , remembering that we are saying goodbye to many students who have played a significant role in college life here over the past few years. Let's celebrate the class of 1983! To all those who have made a contribution, "Thank you."

VIEWPOINT
VDU With the recent election of the new SGA executive board and the new RA's being chosen , Loquitur asked the question: What do you think are some of the issues our new SGA .and RA's should address. Be specific.
FRIOAV,
Three of my best friends, including my first roommate at Woodcrest, always complained about Cabrini. The food was awful. Their room was too small, and the furniture was cheap and half falling apart. GERs were a waste of time and the class offerings in their major limited . Classes were either too hard or too easy and the teachers were all boring. There was never anything to do on weekends or in the evenings. Students were cliquish and selfish. I used to think they were right .... Then we started working on the "Potential for Excellence" section for the Loquitur. It was a huge endeavor for the staff and took much planning and collaboration. Interviews were conducted with almost every veritable faculty and administration member. That's how I realized the level of ex- cellence Cabrini has reached. Joseph Romano was a real boon. Wandering up and down the aisles and across the front of the room, all the while gesticulating wildly, he really gets into his philosophy classes. 1 Not only is Romano in full support of the academic situation that he currently heads, but he really believes in its credibility. There is no doubt as to his dedication to the ideals of Cabrini. It was. a rude awakening for me to find out that there is a good purpose for those "distasteful" GERs and Romano wants us to be well-rounded indi-

friends I was visiting, no one said two words to me past "Hi ." No so here.
With these ideals in mind, the faculty was selected, the curriculum was chosen, and the G ERs were carefully developed . You can't imagine the enthusiasm that marks Romano when he discusses academics. I was almost ashamed that I had ever doubted the authenticity of the program.
But, this all seemed water under the bridge . Both my friends had already transferred to huge schools where they were only numbers and they shared a room with two other girls, but there are parties every night; they meet lotS' of people (3,000 or so); classes are "challenging" and they actually study.
As for the social life, there is much to be desired. However, they're working on it. Every once in a while, something so spontaneous and fun will be presented that I think even the administration is surprised. The rooms on campus are somewhat drab and dull, but what you make of them has a definite impact on their appeal. My friends had so much stuff in their room with posters and pictures on the walls and paraphernalia hanging from the ceiling that I don't know how they could complain about poor conditions when they could hardly see the butt of their complaints. Then again, they'd whimper, if the room were larger ... There was tripling here, too (not that they were involved). They'd heard some pretty fiendish roommate battles. I guess they believed this existed only at Cabrini. Visiting other schools, I've found the living conditions worse. The rooms crowded, dull, and the dark hallways were either noisy or deathly quiet. Except for the
After a year and a half of living through all these complaints, I, too, became disheartened with Cabrini. So I shuffled through the college guide and sent my transcripts off to various . campuses which fit the description of huge universities. I wanted to give Cabrini another chance, because there seemed so many people that were happy here. You either loved Cabrini or you hated it. I couldn't figure out where ---rfit in. The key is getting involved. My roommate and I are constantly busy and are therefore content. Whether we are studying, having a water fight in tne dorm, playing on the intramurals, walking to Wayne or just socializing for hours in the cafeteria, we enjoy the life here. It just takes a little getting used to and some imagination and a little heart and a lot of faith. There's tremendous potential here. Now that I've decided to stay another two years, I think it's about time we tapped it.

by Francine M. Kuterbach Tne recent executive board election has sparked many controversies . According to the SGA con " stitution , "These elections will be held for three consecutive academic class days, excluding Wednesdays ." This statement is contained in Article V, Section B, under the heading "Elections " in the Student Handbook.
Blood drive enjoys record success The second blood drive of the year proved successful as Cabrini College went above and beyond their quote of 100 pints by receiving 110 with 124 total people turning out to donate. The drive, which was sponsored by SGA in the past, was turned over to the marketing division of the Society for the Advancement of Management to run. Mike Gimple, junior, vice president of the mark~ting. club, coordinated the event, which was held Monday, Apnl 11, m the Widener Center lounge from 11:00 a .m . until 4:00 p.m . The effort resulted in a record turnout and donation for Cabrini. Gimple acknowledged the success of the recruiters for the event and stated that he was "proud of the response from the Cabrini community," and that he hoped the support would continue. -

The election was held on a Wednesday. The manner m which the constitution is constructed has caused various interpretations about the runoff election . The statement does not appear under the heading ."Runoff Election." Therefore, Sr . Christine Baltas, dean of students, said the statement does not apply to run-off elections. Sophomore John Doyle was one of the students who protested the election.
Doyle feels the rules for the election should have applied for the run-off election as well. " If some rules were followed according to the listing under ' Election,' why weren't all the rules followed?" Chairman of the Election Committee, Sulamon Allyn said, " I was wrong not to follow the constitution.'' Doyle also said on certain days the election closed a half hour early and voting wasn't made available on certain days during dinner. Allyn said he extended the voting times to Tuesday and Wednesday even\ngs. "I went around and got people to vote on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, which gave the stu dents five opportunities to vote, rather than three ." Doyle felt the candidates should have been given a few days to prepare before the run-off election was announced to the rest of the student body. Allyn said he was pressed for time due to the senior and junior class elections which are coming up. Allyn also said he was pressured by the Loquitur for a press release concerning the election. Allyn did not elaborate on who was pressuring him . Allyn commented, "I ran the election the best wa~ I could. The students who are complaining should have run the election. " · Allyn listed some of the people who took an active part in the election procedure: Mary Konen, Eileen Herbig, Patti Hinke, and Kathy Sullivan. He added that basically all dorm reps were involved and the entire SGA Executive Board.
Allyn said that the student body was given every opportunity to be on the election board. Members were asked to volunteer at an SGA meet ing . When asked if he had any part in the election , Doyle responded , "I wish I would have. " Doyle's final complaint was his questioning of why there wasn't a voting box placed in the TV lounge for the com-

Students receive results with active research by Tom Schultz Did you know most eabrini students believe it is dangerous to drink and drive, but continue to do so? Did you know the qualification for an athletic scholarship is based on n·eed and that no Cabrini athlete receives a full scholarship? Did you know that 68 percent of the students surveyed stated that they felt closer to their family since leaving home to attend college? Well, according to the research compiled by Dr. Valerie Hollis' English Composition 102 classes, . these statements are all true. Valerie Hollis, professor of English and Communications, had her students attempt a different method of the research processes and problem solving . Instead of using the library resources, Hollis had her classes use a more active research by picking a , specific aspect of the college and gathering data for research reports. Out of her three sections, Hollis divided her 71 students into 14 different research teams . The groups considered vatious aspects of the campus community and narrowed them down t'o to a specific topic. Then each group gathered a hypothesis of their expected results, which would ' help shape their interview questions .
After the students collected their data from interviews, surveys or a combination of both, they correlated their information into a group report to present to Hollis. Each report was broken down into four sections . One section contained all the results and data the students found through their research. Section

two described the process by which students gathered their data . This described how the students researched their topic. The third section contained what the group learned. They analyzed their results to see if it matched their hypothesis. Section four described the group dynamics. Section four was of the most interest to Hollis. She wanted to see what kind of process each group went through internally. Hollis found, as she expected, that some groups had no problems and were productive, while others had conflicts. Hollis' long-range goal was to have the students "working as part of a team." The real learning was doing the research and organizing their project," said Hollis. Although the students learned to use the library resources, she felt "classes don't often get to do active research." Hollis believes in going beyond looking up something in a book. Hollis commented, "If I felt it was dull, then I knew students felt it was dull, too." Another •ne of Hollis ' goals was to have the results of the resea-rch reports go to the various aspects of the community . Some of the results will be given to the financial aid office, athletic depattment , residency staff ,
commuter affairs club, director of student activities and WCAB radio. Freshman Maura McGovern's group surveyed freshmen drinking habits and their effect on academics . McGovern enjoyed researching and working with her group. "I learned a lot about the freshmen. I thought tbere were more heavy drinkers and more effects on academics." "The results we obtained from our survey somewhat contradicted our hypothesis," said McGovern . One group studying the resentment between male athletes and female athletes regarding scholarships interviewed the athletic and financial aid departments. The group also used questionnaires on athletes. The group found out that funds for scholarships are split 50/ 50 between male and female sports . Some of the other topics included attitudes toward drinking and driving , music surveys, commuter life , residents and their free time, underclassmen financial aid, exercise and health, sports and gpa, family positioning and achievement .,.moral decisions, and department standards. Hollis commented on the results, " Overall, I was very, very pleased . The groups came up with some impressive statistics. "

·cabrini continues quest to emphasize writing ' by Jeanne Hoepfl " If you can swim in tbree feet of
water, you can swim in six feet of water, and it is the same thing with writing, " said Arthur Young, one of the discussion moderators for the Writing Across the Curriculum Seminar . "The cognitive processes are the same when we write , whether we write a paper for a business class or an English class, and students need to realize this. " Fifteen Cabrini College faculty members were expected to attend the second Writing Across the Cur riculum Seminar which was scheduled for Apr. 20 and 21. According to Dr . Jerome Zurek , English and communications department chairperson, Cabrini College , Saint Joseph's University, and Beaver College are leading the nation's colleges in the endeavor to improve the writing abilities of students through the use of Writing

Across the Curriculum Seminars and follow-up meetings . By making facul-
ty members aware of the research being done on ways to improve student writing, such as the use of expressive writing, a'nd by having faculty members do writing themselves , the hoped-for outcome is that student writing will improve. "We hope to stress the importance of writing in all learning disciplines, '' Zurek said. "Writing has to be required by all faculty members and it has to be done for at least four years for us to see results ." The history department has always stressed writing, and I haven 't attended either seminar, but I do get updates on what has gone on at them," Dr. Jolyon Girard said. "I don't attend because a paper is already required in my course ," business administration department chairperson Howard Buzzard said . "I teach a direct writing style . I trust the English department to teach the proper format."
According to Young, student writing is getting better, but it has a long way to go. "Students don't know the difference between writing and proofreading," Young said. "They think a good paper has no grammatical errors, but it must have good ideas, too." Dr. Sharon Schwarze, philosophy department chairperson, who at tended the previous Writing Across the Curriculum Seminar, said she has added writing assignments to her teaching assignments and she also tries to give more spe<!ific writing instructions than she had previously . "I read enough papers from students in every department in the school to know that they all need help, " Young said . "The seminar helps teachers to teach writing to their students, even if the teachers are themselves reasonably good writers . When i ou are a teacher , every day is a learning day .''
Nuclear lecture addresses 'Christia .n Ethic for Peace' by Lisa D' Ascenzo
The Rev. Donald Clifford, S.J ., Morris Longstreth, and Brother Paul Scheiter, F.S.C., Ph .D., were the three speakers in a lecture entitled "The Christian Ethic of Peace" on April 12. · Clifford, director of the Faith Justic Institute at St. Joseph's University, feels we should focus on what is happening in the Roman Catholic community and how it is trying to deal with the threat of a nuclear war .
"Both the ideas that non-violence 1s the way of the Roman Catholics and that each nation has a right to selfdefense are accepted in the Catholic church," Clifford said . " If the church has to get involved, who does what? The Pope wants to keep the clergy out of political issues ." Clifford feels the arms race is developing a church that is coming of age. "We are producing more intelligent, well-educated people who can take a stand on important issues such as the nuclear arms race :"
Longstreth, Episcopal clergyman and activitist with the Brandywine Peace Community, says, "Weapons are very material. We don't take a bow and arrow and shoot our enemy, as they did in Hebrew combat. Missiles are such a serious concern that - they can easily be lost in things less important." · Scheiter, coordinator for institutional research at LaSalle College, says, "Many of us are so afraid of the issue of nuclear war that we pretend if
it doesn't exist it will go away . This is because it will require us to do some hard thinking, soul searching and make some serious decisions ." "Be sure to look at both sides of each argument. Read the Old Testa ment. We have a lot to learn from the history of the Old Testament, " Scheiter said. "We live in a democratic society. We must exercise our responsibilities. Write letters to your congressman or to the editor , or join organizations .''

Sophomores bid .farewell ,,,
by Mark Magner
''The Sophomore-Senior Farewell is the result of the culmination of eight months of hard work, planning, fundraising and coordination," said Robin Larkins, sophomore class presi dent. "This was all arranged by the sophomore class to provide the graduating seniors with an evening dedi cated especially to them ." The semi-formal event will be held at the Valley Forge Holiday Inn from 7: 30 p.m. until 2 a .m. From 7: 30 to 8 : 30 there will be a cash-bar cocktail -hour . This was planned instead of an open-bar so an extra hour of open-bar could be taken advantage of by latecomers , since most •people don't show up until din ner . From 8:30 p.m . to 9:30 p.m ., dinner will be served. The menu includes fruit cup, tossed salad , roast top round of beef, baked potatoes, mixed vegetables, sheet cake and , of course, beverages. From 9 :30 p.m. to 2 a.m. the dance will take place . The music is provided by Universal Sound, and Dean Russell , the disc jockey from last year's Sophomore-Senior , will once again re turn. From 9:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m . during the dance there will be an open bar .
The cost for the evening is $27. The price was raised $2 from last year 's price due to the rising costs of accommodations for the dance . " We would have liked to keep the price at $25," Larkins said, " but we had to look at bigger places to accommodate all the people , and these places cost more. " has been a burden for the sophomore class to raise enough money for this event and insure free admission for the seniors. Even at the date Larkins was interviewed, she admitted that the class was about $600 short of the cost for Sophomore-Senior . The junior and senior classes hav e made donations to help the sophomores , but to date the funds are insufficient to pay the tab . It
Larkins explained that the class was hurt by the lack of success of the events planned to be major fundraisers, such as the last casino night, .and p'ast sophomore sponsored dances. However, carnation and pretzel sales remained strong fundraisers. Many sophomores have helped with fundraising, but the class officers wish more people would have gotten involved because, Larkins said, "It always seems to be the same people who always seem to support us." 1

Dr. Jolyon Girard:
'Learning should be entertaining' by Brian P. Jensen " He is one of the best teachers I've ever had," said one student. Another commented, "He certainly makes going to class more exciting then one
PERSONALITY would expect." "He makes history fun," said yet another . These comments were typical of those articulated by students at Cabrini College who have taken a history course instructed by Dr . J olyon Girard, associate professor in history and history department chairperson. For his efforts in and outside the classroom Girard was recently awarded the annual Lindback Foundation Faculty Award for distinguished teaching and for service rendered to Cabrini College . Girard was given the award at Spring Convocation by Dr . Joseph Romano, academic dean, who commented that "Dr. Gira,rd's contributions to scholarship , to the college, and to his hometown are distinguished and impressive but it is .in the classroom that most students will remember Jolyon Girard . No student in his heavily enrolled courses has ever complained that history is a dull subject." Indeed, all those who spoke to this reporter about Girard praised his effectiveness and enthusiasm as a teacher , and noted that he is one of the most popular instructors at Cabrini. Girard explained his philosophy when he teaches history: "History is fun for me, and I can't see why it shouldn't be fun for everybody else," Girard said. Girard said that he feels it is important for students to enjoy what they are doing in order for them to take a greater interest in their studies. "I don't think that people should come to class like they are going to the dentist. Learning should be e~tertaining," Girard said.
Girard pointed out that the enthusiasm that he exemplifies in the classroom comes from his being "genuinely enthusiastic" about history. "History is ponderous, but it is also exciting and sometimes humorous ," Girard said . Girard said that his enthusiastic presentation of even the most serious points in a history lesson is his way of showing a student their own ability and interest in the study of history . "I want to point out to them how much fun and how interesting history could be," Girard said. Girard also felt that much of his contentment in teaching history was not only due to his interest and enthusiasm in the subject, but to th~ kind of students he has taught at Cabrini. "Beyond my enthusiasm in history, I personally like the students here very much. The positive atmosphere comes from me and them together. I like to teach here because I like the students here . That adds to the positive chemistry in the classroom ," Girard said . Girard attributed much credit to the students at Cabrini stating, "I'm very happy with them . I share the faculty award with the students I've had. " Girard expressed contentment with his job as a teacher at Cabrini. " Since I was an undergraduate I thought that the most fun job in the world would be being a history professor in a small liberal arts college . That 's what I am. I'm getting paid for doing what I really enjoy . I'm very fortunate in that regard. It's the perfect set up," Girard said . About receiving the faculty award this year Girard mentioned that he feels there are many other faculty members of high caliber at Cabrini that have not been as readily recognized . Girard noted that there " are deserving faculty members here that have never even been nominated for the a ward ." Girard thought these teachers were worthy of recognition . "They know who they are, and I share this award with them, ... but not the money!" Girard said.

Relationships:
Turmoil between Part one of a two part article on parent-student relationships. by Sandra McNamara For all too long , it has been the norm to think of the parent-adolescent relationship as fight-filled and tense . On the contrary, it can be a time of establishing mutual respect and regard. The effectiveness of the parent¡ adolescent relaJionship depends upon the strength of three dimensions in the relationship: 1. Parent behaviors continuing to provide models for their adolescents .
2. Family interaction that contributes to the self-concept of the adolescent.
parents, teens unneces _sary
3. The gradual change of values and beliefs that reflects the adaptation of a new generation.
All three points , which sound all too technical , come down to one basic point : the ability of the parent to relate to their adolescent in a way which will foster a mature rela tionship , and the ability of the adolescent to build upon the positive interac tion between them and their parents. ¡ Steve Alessandri , psychological intern at Cabrini, states , " Parents sometimes have a pre-conceived notion that their children should be dependent and will not facilitate independence." Pa rents are also affected by the media hype of the terrible and irresponsible adolescent who is shown alwa ys in some sort of dilemma or trouble. It isn't recently that these stereotypes have arisen . Ever since the 1950's, teens were seen as hanging out at the local soda shop , talking about who was the cutest guy, what girl was
loose, and where the drag race was going to be . Many still see adolescents in the same light. The strangest phenomena lies in the way adolescents see themselves .
"Parents sometimes have a preconceived notion that their children should be dependent and will not facilitate independence'' In a recent study done by three psychologists, Daniel Offer, Eric Ostrov and Kenneth Howard , data shows that these stereotyped views of adolescents may be far from the truth . For example :
-
- 90% of the teens surveyed answered affirmatively that " I enjoy life. " - 85% said " Most of the time I'm happy ." - whereas only less than a quarter answered , " I feel so lonely. " - Less than half said, "I frequently feel ugly and unattractive. " In these results, the old " turmoil theory of adolescence " really has no firm basis and as Offer, Ostrov and Howard state , " Disruption and change are hardly unique to the adolescent. For that reason, thinking of adolescents as one of the very few transitional stages in the life cycle is misleading . Every stage of life brings new challenges and oppqrtunities ." In the next issue of Loquitur , we will address the Cabrini community about the parent-adolescent relationship, and see where Cabrini fits in.

Going natural

Spring is finally here at Cabrini College. This daffodil is just one visual proof that our winter wonderland is over for good and spring fever is upon us.

Verdict redeems 'has been' by Tom DeMatteis
The year 1982certainly had its share of hit movies, with possibly one of the best being ''The Verdict," directed by ,. Sidney Lumet.
REVIEW
The movie centers around an alcoholic Boston lawyer trying to redeem himself, for what may be his last chance . Paul Newman stars as Frank Galvin, the Boston laywer who is fighting a battle against alcoholism which had been controlling his life. For a good part of the movie, the character Galvin is fre quently seen in the local tavern rather than in his law office. The Wigwam and WCAB sponsored their first " Coffeehouse " on Thursday , Apr il 14. It was very successfu l, and another one has been planned for the end of the semester . (Photo by Mark M. Magner)
It is in the tavern scenes that we see the true character of Galvin come forth . We see a
man who is a "has been" on the inside and a charmer (after a few drinks) on the outside . We see a man who lacks self-confidence, tries to fool you about his drunkenness, and a man who is looking for the chance to do something right and one who wants to win back his self- / esteem. Galvin seems to be a hopeless case ; however , when another lawyer, a good friend of Galvin's, gives him the chance to take on a malpractice suit against a reputable Catholic hospital, there seems to be a shade of hope. Galvin is defending a young woman whose family wants satisfaction. Galvin looks at this case as his last hope for redeeming his name and credibility as a reputable lawyer. However , when the hospital offers a very large settlement and he turns it down , his friends and the woman 's family think he has made a costly mistake. To Galvin, this is the break he has been waiting for and he doesn ·t ~ant to lose
the chance courtroom.
to back
to the
-With very few witnesses and supporting evidence, Galvin takes on the Boston establishment, the hospital and the best lawyers in town. It is a very intense courtroom scene that leaves you anxious for the verdict. In the end, Newman ·as Galvin reveals some very interesting and important information and a key witness that shocks the establishment and wins the case.
Although Galvin does not bask in the glory , the audience knows that Galvin is on the road again; we know he has accomplished something and has virtually redeemed himself. Newman J?lays an exceptional role as Galvm. Newman puts his whole heart and soul into the character and makes vou feel every hurt and fear of the character Galvin .

Chorus is heraldi -ng springtime

Since the weather does- not seem to be accurate proof that we are in the midst of spring , the chorus here on campus is going to do their best to bring us a little sunshine . On May 1, the Cabrini College Community Chorus will hold their annual Spring Concert at 8 p.m. The concert is to be held in the Widener Center Lecture Hall, and will feature performances by the choral group and by the Cabrini College Jazz Ensemble. According to Adeline Bethany, director of the chorus, the concert will have a program of various types of music. "There will be chorus music, solos and performances by the jazz ensemble," said Bethany . The program will be enhanced by a piece of five alumni chorus members . Freshman chorus member, Valerie Rowan, seems to be looking forward to the concert. "I think that it's a good idea because it puts the campus and the community in the mood for spring," Rowan said . "The concert will be a nice break from studying for the students. The concert will also be a way for the chorus members to show all the work that they put in during the semester ."

Allyn: 'flattered
by award'
by Pl4t Conway Each year the SGA acknowledges an outstanding senior who has served at least one semester on SGA. This senior must be someone who has donated his or her time and service without being properly recognized.
Sulamon Allyn has received his first award at Cabrini. "I was flattered that I was given the award," Allyn said, "because it's your peers that see what you do around school and in the dorm." (Photo by Karen Labenz)
Because this is the first award that Allyn has received as a Cabrini student, he said that it is very iqiportant to him. But the fact that he was voted by his peers makes this award extra special. "I was fl,tit;teredthat I was given the award, ' Allyn said, "because it's your peers that see what you do around school and in the dorm." Time and service are two important requirements for the SGA service award. Allyn has fulfilled these requirements by not only serving as vice president and class president, but also by serving on various adhoc committees and being active in the SGA's Living Arts Club. "I can honestly say that I sometimes put SGA before my studies," Allyn said. "I know it's wrong for me to do, but there were times when I felt that I had to let SGA take the priority.'' Allyn has been actively involved in SGA since his freshman year at Cabrini, when he served as class president. He held on to that position during his sophomore year and for the first semester of his junior year. Presently, Allyn is vice-president of the executive board. Dane Linn, SGA president, said that Allyn has not been -formally recognized for all that he has done. Linn, who is a former roommate of Allyn's, said that Allyn is the type of person who gets things done
without wasting time. "I was hoping he would win. He goes beyond the duties he is responsible for," Linn said. Sophomore class president Robin Larkins was not surprised that Allyn won this award. She had nothing but good things to say about Allyn and his interest in the Sophomore class activities. ,-,Throughout the year, he has taken a particular interest in the sophomore class and their fundraising efforts for the SophomoreSenior Farewell," Larkins said. Without Allyn's assistance, this year would have been much more difficult for the sophomore class officers. "He hel{>ed in many ways," Larkins said. "For example, Sul held a party earlier in the year and accepted donations for people to get in. He gave all of the proceeds from this party to the sophomore class." Larkins went on to say that several of the sophomore class' efforts to raise money were less than successful. "Sul and the Living Arts didn't charge us for the events," Larkins said. Allyn believes that his time was well spent by serving on SGA. Perhaps he best summed U.J? his feelings b:y simply saying, 'SGA was worth it because I enJoyed it." Unfortunately, he feels that student involvement in SGA is declining. "As far as involvement goes," Allyn said, "there has been a decline since my freshman year.'' He attributes the decline to the fact that many students who are now in leadership posifions are not being properly recognized for the jobs that they do.

/ Enthusiasm sp·arks softball spirit by Ann Belsky
Tenaglia has never coached women's softball, so must evaluate his progress from other teams. Of learning these sometimes repetitive basics, Terri Leinenbach, senior cocaptain, said, "If you're going to play softball , they're a necessity . They're 60 percent of the game.'.' One of the biggest problems this young team is having is inexperience, according to Tenaglia. They don't have a strong strike-out pitcher or home-run hitter. "Our infield is solid, the batting looks good and we have decent team speed," Tenaglia said. "If we cut down on mental mistakes, we will better softball team. We have a lot offensively.'' "There's more spirit on this softball team than on any other I've played on here at Cabrini," Leinenbach said. This enthusiasm was displayed in the April 12 match. The Lady Cavs crushed Chestnut Hill 5-2.
In the opening match against Holy Trinity on Apr. 6, the Cabrini College women's softball team lost 9-8 in the seventh inning, but that has only spurred the team's enthusiasm: Considering this was the first time the Cavs had hit the field as a team, they fared well, but as it was a league division game, it really did hurt the record, according to coach Mike Tenaglia. Tenaglia tried some new moves which may have hurt the team. He said he was disappointed in the loss, but knows why they lost, so can make adjustments. He was pleased that he got to play everyone from the bench. Sophomore Eileen Herbig pitched an "outstanding" game for six innings. Lynn Wasilewski, sophomore, and freshman Michelle Tarbotten also played exceptionally.

Nutrition: · a must when training By Danny Ross
As the semester draws to an end it becomes apparent that the summer bathing suit season and summer sports are not that far away. And any extra pounds that were gained over the long winter season must now be lost to insure that the athlete not only fits into his or her old bathing suit, but that they can also compete in their favorite sport. Many choose dieting to get themselves into their old bathing suits and into shape for summer sports. Dieting and exercise to get into shape is great, but when dieting the right foods in the right amounts must not be neglected. Athletes must keep in mind that they require certain amounts of energy to perform the exercises they do. This energy comes from the daily intake of calories that the athlete receives. Since athletes require a well balanced diet with caloric requirements between 2,500 - 6,000, depanding upon body size, age, and level of training, it is important that the athlete get these calories on a daily basis. These caloric requirements should be taken from the four basic food groups. The first food group consists
~,:~.,
of milk and milk products such as cheeses and yogurts. One should get a minimum of two ·servings per day from this group. The milk products group provides the athlete with his/her supply of calcium, protein, riboflavin, vitamin A and vitamin D. The second food group would consist of meat and high protein foots. From this group it is also necessary to get at least two servings per day . If . this minumum is not met then the athlete will not be receiving enough body-building proteins, vitamin Band Iron. Another food grou would be the group consisting of fruits and vegetables. u·is important the athlete get four servings per day from this food group in order that he/she maintains their level of vitamin C, vitamin A and folic acid. If the foods the athlete chooses to eat all come from these four food groups then he /s he should be maintaining a balanced diet of protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals all of which out bodies require to build, repair and replace body tissues.

Students work on being fit by Sheila Fanelle Now that the weather is warmer, people will be exposing more flesh. Everybody has their own way of preparing for the grand exhibition after a covered winter. Physical filness has become somewhat of a sport. This is what. the competitors at Cabrini are doing. Aerobic dancing and exercise workouts have become a popular sport in the women's dorms. Coaches Jane Fonda and Joanie Greggains encourage the team to give it their all. Others prefer a rigorous routine of da~cing exercising and setting up their own routines in the privacy of their rooms. Riding stationary bikes covers a lot of miles when it isn't possible to take to the great outdoors. Groups of Cabrini students take advantage of the poots at Villanova University and Radnor High School. Others frequent local health spas and
'
lift weights on universal equipment. Laura Kraemar, 85, jumps rope 20 minutes every day, along with stretching, situps, weight lifting and bike riding for three miles. Denis Bourgeau, 86, boxes three times a week fo two hours along with jumping rope and calisthenics. Frank Cheeseman, 83 supplements his exercise routine by attending four gym classes a week. Annamarie Farnschlader, 84, feels that it is important to "think thin" when you're dieting and exercising. So there you have it, there are early bird joggers, rope jumpers and progressive weight lifters. All of those who have a specified routine, said that they started out slow and worked their way up. For those with a littie less energy there are always long walks and the weight watchers pep step.
