CampusintrudershocksCabrini by Robin Larkins The direct result of a series of intrusions, encounters and assaults of stud~nts on campus within the past week has been the immediate increase of safety and security measures on campus. Administrative and overall campus concern of safety and security at Cabrini are issues which have emerged and have prioritized themselves to the forefront of campus response, action and discussion as a result of the recent incidents which have occurred. "Who the hell are you?," asked the victims of the initial encounter which occurred at about 3:30a.m. last Thursday (Apr. 26) morning. This question has been repeatedly asked on campus of the identity of a man who was first encountered by Cabrini residents of Maguire House. The females first posed the question when they woke up to find a man kneeling beside one of their beds ·with a white washcloth draped over his face. . This encounter proved to be the beginning of the strange and bizarre string of events which has left Cabrini, a college thought by many to be immune and secluded from such illegal activity, coping with an aura of fear, anger and mystery permeating the air of the entire campus; puzzling Cabrini's own security force, local law enforcement officials and extra security men hired from an outside corrcern to preserve the safety of the campus. Information compiled from those who encountered the intruder thus far lead to a man who fits the description of being a white male around six foot to six foot three inches tall, approximately in his twenties, with wavy sandy to dirty blonde hair having a length down to aroµnd the collar, a
· · medium build, and a blemished complexion. The facts of the incidents present four cases of assault or attempted assaults and numerous reports of encounters with suspicious men fitting the aforementioned description stemming all the way back to suspicious sightings occurring before the Easter break. Specific measures which have been taken regarding the incidents include: The occurence of an immediate meeting involving Sr. Eileen Currie, MSC, president of the college, Sr. Christine Marie Baltas, MSC, dean of students, Mary Ellen Lilly, acting director ofresident life and Mike Caranfa, director of the physical ·plant to discuss courses of action to take regarding the incidents which occured. The substantial increase of security on campus, specifically through the hiring of an additional guard from Wells Fargo Security, an outside firm contracted to help protect the Cabrini campus, until graduation, according to Caranfa. The placement of metal plates around the locks of the doors of the seven houses, to further secure the locks and add extra security against break-in. Contact and cooperation with the Radnor police assigned to the case. Cooperation of the students who could formulate a description of the man they saw by providing police with the details for a comI,>ositesketch. The calling of a meeting of the residency staff by Lilly to present the facts, and to plan strategies to raise awareness in tbe dormitories regarding safety and security. Visits by Lilly to the residences to keep residents informed and to air questions and concerns in a constructive manner. · more intruder on 3

Fate of new dorm will greatlyaffect residency b D.B. Field Will Counsel Hall be reduced in size or closed down all together? Will two or three of the female houses become male? Will the people at Cabrini East (in the fall semester 1984) have to stay at Cabrini East during the spring
emester of 1981)? No, this is no the plot of a "s:,ap opera." These are the questions surrounding next years residency situation, and apparently the answers depend upon the fate of the new dorm. "We still anticipate the sub-

If the new dorm. is finished by spring it will have a major effect on next year's residency situation, according to Mary Elien Lilly, acting director of resident life . For instance, Cabrini East will be closed, and its residents will be able to move on campus. If the new dorm is all female, and if Counsel is reduced or totally closed down, then two to three of the female houses (depending on how many rooms are required) will become male. (The college administration wants to, at least, reduce the size of Counsel due to the expenses and problems of keeping the old building in condition) Lilly said it is rather unlikely that the new dorm will be all male, because, according to the most recent enrollment numbers, there will not be enough men to fill the two buildings. Lilly also said, however, that if the new dorm were to be one building male and the other building female, then less residency change would be neccessary. (The new dorm is actually two different buildings connected by a walkway.) "The decision regarding the • new dormitory is made by the College Administration, as of this

Takethe precautions fOryour own security It was bound to happen sooner or later. The fairy tale has to end where all does not survive happily ever after. Thus reality sets in and takes over never never land. The legend of Cabrini-land where the sun always shines, the grass is always green and the 110 acres always roll is over and reality in all of its harsh realizations has set into our tranquil wooded setting. . Even when circumstances, such as those which have transpired over the past week, throw us into reality, some on campus still believe in the myth that we live inside our own protective c;ocoonsafe from all the evils of the world outside our gates. An astounding fact revealed by Mike Caranfa, director of Cabrini's physical plant, stated that less than 48 hours after two attempted assaults occurred in two residences on campus, there were at least four discoveries of doors on campus left propped open. Any type of security which is going to be provided on campus- be it a force of three or 3,000 - works on a give and take basis in cooperation with the rest of the community in which it is enforced. When individuals of the community do not take their own necessary safety precautions, the security system, no matter how expensive or complex, cannot work as it was designed. The administrative authorities who met with Sr. Eileen immediately after the occµrrences of intrusion on campus, did not hesitate to take immediate action to safeguard and upgrade the protective security measures of the campus. This was manifested through the installation of metal plates around all of the door locks in the houses, additional security personnel hi~ed from outside agencies, and continued cooperation with local law enforcement officials among others. Yet some students chose to disregard and ignore that which was occurring and as a result thwarted the purpose of the attempts to better secure the safety of the campus and its inhabitants. The warning was clearly given. It is up to the students to take .action to try to prevent as best they can the dire consequences of personal assault and injury from occurring again by raising their awareness in regards to their own personal safety and taking a concern for the safety of the residence in which they live. · It's hard to change overnight a mentality which has prevailed for the past 25 years. We like to think of our residences on campus as our homes and the people who live with us as our families . It's only natural to leave the doors open to our fellow family members. What has to be realized is that at the same time those doors are being left open to those who for some sick reason want to do som~thing to harm members of that family. An aura of mass hysteria need not permeate the air of the campus. What should emerge is an aura of increased awareness and common sense about measures that can be taken to better promote campus security measures without destructive and harmful vigilante actions, which, in reality can only make the situation worse. Above all, be careful. With normal, everyday safety precautions, the life you may save could very well be your own.

PERSPECTIVES

Look back and see 83-4 Those crazy, lazy, hazy days of summer are almost here. The 1983-84 school year is coming to an end; time does fly when you're having fun. The past nine months have been full of changes and adjustments for the Cabrini community. The first change that faced students was Cabrini East . Due to the influx of students, there was a need for off-campus housing. Although it sometimes caused inconveniences for the students, a majority of the students expressed contentment with the arrangements provided by Harcum Junior College. As the semester comes to a close, yhe problem of insufficient housing is still being dealt with but in the form of a new dorm . Currently under construction, the 124-room dorm will not be ready to house students in the fall semester . Also, it has not yet been decided whether or not the dorm will house females only, males only or be both. The student concensus is for a co-ed dorm; as the semester ends, the students will probably still be in the dark on the subject . Another first was the computerization of most campus offices. Cabrini students saw this in the form of a new tuition billing system but more importantly at registration. Most students were shocked to find registration change from a long, drawn-out process into one which barely even took minutes. New and stricter alcohol laws were the cause of one of the Cabrini firsts this year. When it was discovered that the junior and senior classes would have to be responsible for those who were drinking at the Junior /Senior dinner-dance, they decided to eliminate alcohol completely. This resulted in an on-campus event which took place in the cafeteria and the gym; the first in recent memory. Progressive changes were made in Cabrini's first class award winning newspaper, Loquitur, and the literary magazine, Cryptic. Students of these publications received even more experience in the production of both, since they began doing their own typesetting and paste-up. 198.4-85...we look upon it with hope and a little bit of dread; we will probably start out again with great plans and anticipations, and end up with rriany, but not all, accomplishments.

The foundation of the new dorm has been completed. Above one can see the the beginning of walls. The contractor is using a new construction method called "fast-track " so that the new dorm will be finished by mid-October. (photo by John Doyle) I by D.B.

As for the water problem when the dorm is completed, Heiberger said a that a five-foot-square collection box will be placed at the north end of the dorm site to collect the water that comes under the entrance road from the developmen t above the campus. A two-foot-diameter pipe will run the water behind dorm and down the hill to Eagle Road . When asked if the foundation of the new dorm was in any danger by being submerged in water, Heibeger said that the damp weather is actually good for the foundation because it causes the cement to harden slower. There will be another collection box at the south end of the dorm . "This system will be able to handle a flash flood," Heiberger said Unless there is some major problem over the summer Heiberger said, "The new dorm should look like it's finished when the students return in September ."

Miller:'pleasedand honored'by award Senior Jaime Miller is certainly an active member of the campus community. Miller's energetic, outgoing personality, blended with her enthusiasm and dedication have made her successful in her endeavors. Miller wanted to bring across these aspects of herself, and her interest and involvement in Cabrini's activities when filling our her application for membership into Who's Who
in American College's and Universities. "I was pleased and honored by my acceptance. I am happy to represent Cabrini in this honor." · Miller's activities include: president of Student Academic Council and History Club; participation in Cabrini's Little Theatre, Kappa Sigma Omega service organization, Phi Alpha Theta history honor society, and the Cabrini Honor Society. She is also a recipient of the Student Service and Leadership Award, and a charter member of Delti. Miller also serves as a member of the Middle States Steering Committee. Miller's presence, however, has been missing from the campus this semester since she is presently serving an internship at the Washington Center, Washington, D.C., where she is an entry level staff member in the Communications Office at the State Department Bureau oflnternational Organizations . Miller , surprisingly, found her internship on her own, while attending a political science conference in Washington last spring. At this conference, Miller learned about the Washinton Center and presented her resume to a representative from that organization . Miller's duties include the job of staff assistant to the executive secretaries working on the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO ). The United States government announced in December that they were withdrawing from UNESCO. This announcement was covered by "60 Minutes," the CBS investigative news program . However, according to its charter, UNESCO must still fulfill its obligation until December 1984. Since there are some activities in which the organization cannot participate, yet it must still fulfill its obligations, it is Miller's job to find the alternative solutions to UNESCO involvement. When asked what experiences at Cabrini have proven the most beneficial in her internship, Miller replied, "I found my involvement in extracurricular activities to be invaluable. I learned fast planning from my experiences with clubs and committees, and I gained a great deal of organizational skills from running meetings and taking minutes ." Miller, a triple major in history , political science , and •~ social science , feels that her broad b~ck~?~d of l!beral • .,· . . · : , • ~• arts courses was also a good preparation. With a liberal Jamie Miller, s;nior and Who's Who ;~cipient, is serving arts education, " s~ated Miller, "you are flexible enough to · • S t D rtment Bureau of pursue your own mterests. The professors themselves can an mter'!shtp at the . t~ e epa fill in the gaps ." Miller commented that she especiallv International Orgamzat,on. enjoyed studying under Dr. Jolyon P. Girard ,
At Cabrini, Miller is a commuter, who also works 20 to 40 hours a week in addition to her other responsibilities . "Yes, a job in addition to school work does interfere somewhat, but it is a matter of allowing it not to. Cabrini offers the opportinity to do that."
'Jamie is one of the very best students I've ever taught." Joylon Girard, chairman of the history department
Miller, who is living with another intern in housing provided through the Washington Center , says she loves Washington, D.C., but misses the relationships she found with the students and faculty at Cabrini . In describing Cabrini , Miller considered the small size of the campus. "I like the small student-faculty ratio, and knowing, or at least recognizing, most of the other students . I hope it stays that way. It is the personal attention, from the administration on down to the students, that sets Cabrini apart." "Jaime is one of the very best students I've ever taugh t," commented Girard. "She has an exceptional degree of intellectual curiosity coupled with a strong strain of good common sense . Jaime is extremely responsible, hardworking, and perfectly delightful . She is one of the reasons people teach . She deserves all the rewards that come her way because she works for them . Jaime would be successful in an y academic environment. I'm glad she chose Cabrini ." After graduation, Miller plans -to attend graduate school in 1985, since her work at the Washington Center will be completed in December 1984. Miller has applied t o Georgetown University and will be working toward an M.S. degree in International Studies . This will prepare her for the foreign service officer's exam. Miller hopes for a career in this field .
WHO'S WHO 1984 ActivitiesguideSchulmeyerin careerchoice By Judy Buck There is one special education and psychology major that holds high aspirations for her future , due to what she has gained by her years at Cabrini. Cindi Schulmeyer , senior , has been extremely active in her years at Cabrini. "Career wise, the different activities I have been involved with have helped me pick out the future career I want to persue along with the help ofmy professors . The activities have helped me find out more about special education and psychology", stated Schulmeyer . Schulmeyer was a counselor at Camp Dumore from Feb.of1983 to Aug. of1983. Camp Dumore is a camp which is sponsored by the Easter Seals Society for the physically handicapped. Schulmeyer was appointed to director of the camp her 3rd and 4th year there . "I gained many leadership, administrative and management qualities through this experience," stated Schulmeyer.
'The most importantthing Cabrini has taught me is how to deal with people and that, I can take with me where ever I go in the future.' At the same time Schulmeyer was involved with the camp, she was also involved with C.E.C.(Council for Exceptional Children). Schulmeyer held the position of president from Jan. of1983 to Dec. of1983. "C.E.C. has been the most beneficial of my activities because it helped me learn more about my major, special education," stated Schulmeyer. The two things Schulmeyer set out to do upon entering Cabrini have been accomplished. "When I first came to Cabrini I specifically knew what I wanted to achieve. I wanted to be involved with Kappa because I was so impressed with them on my tour of Cabrini, and I wanted to

SGA faces a futureof challenge
by Robin
Larkins,
SGA
President
As SGA begins to look ahead, it's always beneficial to look back at the past and reflect on the way we were, so that the way we are cal) become better, and the way we might someday be can be our ideals and aspirations which we can constantly strive to achieve and work towards. The 1983-84 year for SGA proved to be a pioneering experience for its newly elected executive board officers. The first task to accomplish was to set up an organizational system within which SGA could effectively organize itself and function as an effective body itself. The task was started with little help or information from the immediate past . File systems were set up and coordinated; regular meetings with minutes following were held, members became more aware of their individual responsibilities and carried those duties out. SGA successfully became as visible as it could through the activities of orientation week by sponsoring a Scavenger Hunt, the first annual club and organizations fair and cosposoring the welcome back dance which featured live musical entertainment. Elections were the next item of concern which were addressed by the election committee. Through the committee, s:rr.ooth electoral proceedures and set schedules were established and abided by throughout the course of the year. November saw the campus becoming more aware of their responsibility and liabilities with regards to the campus alcohol policy and the sponsoring of such events as the Junior/Senior Dinner Dance which was successfully moved onto campus from off and ran without serving alcohol. The new awareness of the alcohol policy led the executive board to look at the matter and deliberate and decide upon an effective system of control which would provide for a responsible social drinking atmosphere to be allowed at campus social events both on campus and off. The new policy and system of control was inaugurated at the Christmas Dance and has been implemented a several campus functions since then. The system which was estblished was so comprehensive that it has been cited at meetings and conventions in the area and state as being a model system of control set up for a college environment. The second semester went head first into things through the execution of the First Annual Cabrini College Helping Hand Superthon which _was cosposored by SGA and solicited and achieved the majority of
campus and SGA participation. Through everyone's combined efforts, the Superthon raised over $1500 to aid the selected charities of the Ronald McDonald Foundation and ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease.) The constitution revision committees were the next major acts initiated by SGA. Committees comprised of SGA members examined the constitution as it exist~d from before, made suggestions and the committee chairpersons, who were Executive Board members compiled the results and ironed out a feasible constitution package which was approved on Apr. 24 by theSGA. No other former document of the association covered SGA, its goals and its functions in such a comprehensive and complete way. Major changes occurred in the areas of budgetary requirements, electoral procedures and in the social activity structure ofSGA . The social activities chairperson is the only SGA executive board member. He has three assistants , each with specific assigned duties. The assistants coordinate the activities ofrepresentives elected from each class to serve as class officers and as members of the new Social Activities Com- mittee. The committee will work directly under the jurisdiction of Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities. The aim was to still keep a liaison connection between SGA and the Social Activities Committee yet to coordinate their actions specifically under the student activities sector of the campus. The executive board added an historian position and the classes will now allow their parliamentarian to vote. Each club will also be responsible to provide an SGA representative to link their affiliated organization with SGA as a whole. The set up of workable financial records was achieved under the direction of the SGA treasurer. Also, the entire SGA budget for the year was requested in September in order to provide ample time to make an investment of the money into a money market account where it earned 9.04 percent interest in three months. The concept of an SGA Workshop was established by this year's executive board in order to orientate the new members to the board and to provide a smoother transition process.

Spring Fli
the St. David's Inn with four ticket plans to provide for alcohol control The freshmen class showed strong through its establishment of a freshman council and its running of several successful fund raising activities. A record 38 freshmen ran for officer positions in the freshmen class elections which occured late this fall. Spring Fling rejeuvenated itself through the efforts ofSGA and the Office of Student Activities. A survey on campus lighting created suggestions and responses which could prove to increase over safety and light on campus Of course as one looks back as the year passed, there's many areas within SGA which must be worked on in order to create a credibility and to further strengthen SGA as a whole. A goal to constantly strive for is for the proper student representation in the administrative system of the college itself. SGA has found that rpany college committees call for studertt representation on paper yet never wind up to actually exist in reality. SGA must work to increase their representative role of the students . SGA must also strive to create an awareness among the students that they do exist and are there to address students' concerns- whatever they should be. SGA must more actively formulate opinions as a whole concerning important campus issues. One of the first things on our agenda in September should be to address the status of the new dorm and make a statement as to how the student body wishes to be configured and if they wish to have the option of living in a coed dorm . There's so much potential within the framework of any student government association that it sometimes becomes frustrating when things don't turn out as you wanted them to or expected them to. But then again what things in life ever provide us with the opportunity to be completely satisfied with a job done . There's always something more. Always something to strive for or else it wouldn't be a challenge or a learning experience. And isn't that what we're all here for - to learn
The warm tanning rays of the sun causeda short clad bodies out on the lawns of campu beach escalated by the beach party/dance weather for most of the weekend reminded u
So SGA faces the challenge of the future. With thanks for the past and hope for the future.
Drugand alcoholabuse to be examinedby panel Recently , Mary Ellen Lilly, acting director of resident life, Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities, have been working together with several others on the development of an alcohol and drug abuse advisory board. The purpose of the board is to create a comprehensive program on drugs and alcohol which will best suit the Cabrini College campus . The idea occurred to DiRaddo and Lilly during a drug and alcohol abuse convention sponsored by the Pennsylavania department of education.
was
Those involvedin a preliminary meeting reaJizedthat this must be a long range project, and not somethingto be thrown together hastily.
However, they feel the only way to develop a comprehensive program which works, is to get everyone involved. For this reason, they sent 40 invitations to representatives of all of the following: administration, staff, faculty, coaches, SGA, class officers, resident assistants, as well as residents from each of the dorms. They received a positive response from nearly everyone invited. 1\nyone else who feels they might like to join the board are welcomed and need only contact Lilly or DiRaddo.
The purpose of the board w to create a comprehensi~ programon drugs and aloo which best fits the Cabrini Co Campus.
Those involved in a preliminary meeting rE this was to be a long range project, and not som to be thrown together hastily. At the urging of the students involved, Di and Lilly happily agreed to one more meetir semester (held Tuesday, May 1). The purpose meeting was to set up interim policies to be fo next year until a new program was defined. For next year, a four-step approach is being c ered. In the fall, the first two steps will occur. the board will be drawn together with guest sp4 to heighten their awareness of the issues.

As the final days wind down With graduation day so near, It's so difficult for those of us left behind To believe it's all quite real.

We had lived to tell the story Of sharing with one another a love so strong ... A love shining in splendor and glory. Our friendship became a rainbow A magnitude of colors Diverse in range , enough the same That they cling to one another.

Studentsparticipatein 'Rhythmof the Streets' by Beth Daly For many of us the possibility of ever being on national tv or in films are far fetched fantasies. That dream became a reality for freshmen Paul Cauchi and Lisa Bellano. They were participants in an MTV (Music Television) production entitled 'Rhythm of the Streets' starring Patti Austin. "The storyline of the video revolves around a girl named Patti who owns a speakeasy . It could be in the '20's. It is about the wild people who visit the night club," said Cauchi. Cauchi and Bellano were contacted by Dan Perna, theater director. They were sent to E.J . Stewart, Inc. to audition for the video. They were to be extras (background people ). Cauchi said , "I was in the theater when Dan got a call saying they needed people . We went on Wed. (Apr. 4) for auditions, did a few Charleston steps, told to dress in 20's fashions and told when to show up (and where )." The video was filmed at Lemon Hill Mansion (by the Phila . Zoo). According to Cauchi , "They were looking for real open people who were not afraid to try new things ." "On Sat. (Apr. 7) 1 got there at 8
night she was really snobbish," said Cauchi. "There were some real characters there. For example a guy named Grady was a model from N.Y. who worked with Andy Warhol, and acted like him. He was really bizarre," said Cauchi.

Wrestlingaction at the Cabrini arena by John Doyle Action-packed and spine-tingling sum up the feelings that were wafting through the air as wrestling fans were treated to a night of thrilling competition in the Widener Center Arena. Sponsored by Counsel Hall, the first such sporting event was made up of three exciting bouts with proceeds from the night going to the Big Brother Association.
The main event of the night was between the reigning champ, Lenny "The Chef' Siwak and the challenger, Mike "The Mailman" Fallor.. Highlights of the bout were "The Chefs" Omlette Treatment, when he hit Fallon with cheese and an egg, and his other everfamous tactics like the Pie In The Face, the Flour Toss and the Frying Pan Smash . "The Mailman's" most effective maneuver was his Postage Due Stamp Smash. However, both wrestlers were disqualified for outside interference. Before the main event though, fans were treated to a bout between Ballcrusher Rotts (Brian Rottkamp) and the Psycho (Mark Murray). Rotts, weighing in at 522

Chorustakes their music to Spain by Bonnie Zischang Friendship is the message that the Cabrini College Community Chorus will sha,re with the people of Spain as they perform their musical talents. The Friendship Ambassader's Foundation is the program that the choral group will travel under. This Foundation contacts colleges and high schools, inquiring of their participation in the cultural exchange program. The New York Times describes the organization of the Friendship Ambassadors as one of America's largest private, cultural exports in the world." The cultural organization specializes in promoting international understanding through performance. They are dedicated to the belief that music is the medium and friendship is the message . The Cabrini chorus embarked on a similar excursion two years ago when they performed in Romania and Greece. Adeline Bethany, chairperson of the fine arts department, commented that she plans to do another performance in another 3 or 4 years. "We are required to give at least 6 concerts or more while we are traveling. It is hard work and we must do a lot of practicing. It is not a vacation for sightseeing. There is a tremendous amount of work involved," said Bethany. According to Bethany, anyone in chorus is invited to come providing that they pay their way have the free time. "This year, the department has been able to pay half of the fare of all students through fundraisers," said Bethany. The Cabrini College Chorus combines with the Delaware Valley Community College. This year 7 students, 2 alumnae and 4 community people from the Cabrini Chorus group will be participating in this cultural experience. "I think it is a very broadening for students to experience a new culture, even a new performance situation," said Bethany. She also brought up the point that the program follows a different format than in America. Bethany gave the example that if the program was scheduled to start at 8:00 and no one showed up until 9:00, it was nothing unusual. The last trip had such diverse sites for their performances as basketball courts, once in a palace and auditoriums.
The cities that the chorus group will visit are Madrid for 3 nights, Salamanca for 1 night, Seville for 3 nights, Grenada for 1 or 2 nights and the remaining time will be spent on the Costa Del Sol, which is the "Coast of the Sea."

Psycho, though, made a comeback with his "Rip The Shirt To Make Your Opponent Think His Pants Ripped" trick. A disoriented and embarassed Rotts was then easily pinned by Psycho. .. :

Men'stennisteam upsetsNeumann by Charles Dodds The men's tennis team won their second match of the year. Led by player-coach Paul Caruso and captain Allan Buecker, the Cavaliers beat Neumann College for the second time this year. The Cavaliers were victorious in all their five matches. Paul Caruso won his match 6-0, 6-0, upping his record to 41. Caruso had no problems beating Brian Donahue of Neumann for the second time this year.

Athleticprogram may join NCAA DivisionIll . NCAA. The directors, chairman, Cliff Young, athletic director at Eastern College and chairman of the move, Ted Thylor, Athletic director at Spring Garden College, decided this because the two other conferences that are alligned with them, Lincoln University and Allentown College belong to Division III.

by Nancy Vaden The men's and women's athletic programs may be joining the NCAA Division III because of reasons involving credibility for the college and costs. They hope to join the division as associate members in June of this year and as full fledge members in Sept. of 85. · John Dzik, director of athletics, feels there are several reasons why joining the NCAA Division III would result in beneficial changes for the college. Joining the division would 'result iji credibility for Cabrini, compared to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, which the athletic programs belong to now.

The final change that would be a result of joining the NCAA also involves costs. "The athletic teams continue to grow. Cabrini does not offer scholarships, instead grants are awarded on the basis of financial need. If a team represents the college in a national event, the NCAA will defray costs for participation whereas the NAIA will only defray costs in men's basketball," Dzik said. If the athletic programs do not join the NCAA, there are two other possibilities that would be considered, according to Dzik. The teams would either remain in NAIA or move to Division II. According to Dzik, if they move to Division II, the school would have to be prepared to offer scholarships in all sports.
