Last Saturday the men's cross-country team placed first in the District 19 championships at Allentown College, thereby becoming eligible for the national championships on Nov. 17 in Wisconsin. Funding for this and other athletic conferences has become a priority issue at Cabrini College since many teams have begun to excel in their sport. According to men's athletic director, John Dzik , travel and related expenses are estimated at $2 ,000 for the National Association for Intercollegiate Athletics' conference at the University of Wisconsin , Par kside , in Kenosha, Wis. Dzik said the athlet ic department does not have an allowance in its curren t budget for these expenses . He added that it is work ing in a deficit situation . "There is no contingen cy plan for championship competition ," he said, and described the budget for athle ti cs as "bare bones ." When the men 's basketb all te am went to Kans as Cit y for the championsh ips las t yea r, t he colleg e advanced $10,000 to the team and was reimbursed by NAIA for 80 percent of this amoun t. Association support , however, extend s onl y to basketball. Ot her team s must provide th eir own financial back ing .

by Frank Bokoski The weight room, located in Sacred Heart Hall, has become a subject of controversy among the Cabrini community. Many students are worried that the athletic department is going to reserve time and give athletes priviledged use of the facilities. John Dzik, men 's athletic director and coach of the men's basketball team , agrees that the weight room is fo~ ~he community and he urges the non-athletes to use the fac1hty. Dzik's complaint is that the weight room is not open long enough for the basketball players to get a chance to use the room. He said that it is impossible for the athletes to get into the room during regular nine to five hours. Dzik would like to see the fitness center open 24 hours a day. Dzik wants a key to the weight room so that he can let the athletes in himself. Dzik said , "I will get a key to the room. I'm not going to worry about monitors and I'm not going to worr y about waivers. " As long as the athlete s ar~ super vised by the coach there will not be a need for momtors ; as far as waivers are concerned , under the school's athletic policy the athlete s have already sign~d a wai~er rele~e . Dzik pointed out that all of the eqmpmen t m the weigh t room , except for the free weights, belongs to the men '.s and women 's athletic departments. Thus, he feels that the mter collegiate athletes should be able to use the facility when times are convenient for them. According to Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities , the only way that Dzik will get a key is if an

agreement is made with Di Raddo, Dzik , Mike Caranfa , physical plant director and Larry Lantz, security and safety director . The waiver release forms are for insurance reasons . Once the student signs this form, the school is not responsible for supervising the student or teaching the student how to use the weights properly . The monitors job is to make sure the students have signed waivers, to prevent equipment from being stolen , and to call for help if someone is injured. The athletic department has been trying for five years to get the weight room modified, Dzik said. It was not until Matt Garrison , senior, and Eddie O'Brien , (alumnus '84) became involved two years ago that any progress was made. With the fitness center having been reopened just three weeks ago, the system has not been worked through yet. Some of the students who have signed up to work as monitors have not been showing up regularly . This takes away from the t ime that the athletes and non-athletes have to use the center . Di Raddo said that the fitness center is open till 10 p.m . almost every night . The hours tha t the center will be open are Monday , noon to 10 p.m .; Tuesday , Wednesday and Thursday , 9 a .m . to 10 p.m.; Friday , noon to 6 p.m .; Saturday, 11a.m . to 5 p.m.; and Sunday , 11 a.m . to 10 p.m. Ideally , the fitness center should be kept open as long as the Widener Center is open, midnight, but there are not enough students available to work and keep the center open.
In a simil ar success ion of events , the men 's soccer team came close to securing a place in the playoffs. They closed their outstanding season in a 2-1 defeat · last Friday, forestalling a trip to Fresno, Calif . for the championships at an estimated cost of $12,000. Dr. Joseph Romano, vice president for academic affairs, said, "Other schools are green with envy over our success." He added that the administration felt that a great institution should have an athletic program of equal quality and committed itself to upgrading the intercollegiate athletic program . Romano admits that the athletic department has an immediate need for an increase in operating money. He also said that an athletic trainer is urgently needed. A board certified trainer is a prerequisite for membership in many athletic conferences. Most colleges provide athletic trainers while hosting an event and expect Cabrini to do the same. This trained professional would attend all practices and games , prevent injuries to players when possible, and make decisions in medical emergencies . Romano said that the athletic department needs more money just to maintain its present program. "All things being equal , they should get a proportionately higher share," he added. · ·· Dzik points out that Cabrini is so far behind in funding the athletic department, the raise is not effective . He cites the benefits of intercollegiate ath letics in obtaining free publicity for the college as invaluable.

what do you think? Evaluating ·the fitness center

Loquitur reporter Robin Larkins sought out users of the newly renovated fitness center and asked them what they thought about the new facilities - in particular, how often they utilized the center, whether they thought the operating schedule was convenient, and whether or not the center should prioritize scheduling for special use . Lori Di Meglio, senior, field hockey team captain , frequents the fitness center aprox. three times per week. "I think that people know the fitness center is there and that it is being used. The hours should be expanded into the early morning and later at night so that more people can use it at more convenient times for them . It should definitely be operated on a first come, first serve basis. Any type of special scheduling infringes upon everyone else's convenience." Randy Letko, junior, cross country team member, utilizes the weight equipment two or three times per week. "I've never had any problems with scheduling. The room is generally open when I want to use it . I strongly think that there should be more instructional posters on the wall to aid people in using the equipment. I've been in there sometimes when people simply do not know what they're doing. May_be if
they had some instructional monitors who knew more about the equipment and its use, this problem could be eliminated." Terry Neilio, sophomore, is a weight room monitor, who also works out about two to three times per week. "I feel that the weight room scheduling does not meet the needs of the students. This is mainly due to an inconsistency in the scheduling when monitors don't show up for work which forces the center to be closed. The amount of hours that it is open is fine. The center is usually dead on Sundays and pretty busy during the week with about four or five people working out at any one time. I don't feel that people really know that it's here. The same people are in all the time." Jim Moffat, senior, can be found in the fitness center three or four times per week. '½.side from the sparce amount of equipment available in the weight room, I have no real problems with it. I don't run and I'm not involved in sports - basically I lift weights. So I would take offense ifl couldn't use the facilities because some other concern was given priority. The major problem is that you have this huge, beautiful facility with little equipment- which is in need of continuous maintenance."
op1n1on . CCA needed to activate·changes by Kathleen Daly I have served on many, sometimes I think too many, committees at Cabrini. The Council of College Affairs (CCA) was the only one to which I wished to be elected. It was the only organization where elected representatives offaculty, students and administration sat down together to discuss an issue; where faculty, students and administration had equal numbers of votes; where once an issue had been resolved, the proposal was taken directly to the president of the college. I valued membership on the CCA because it was an open committee, an elected committee and a committee that made a difference. Yet in the Oct. 12 issue of Loquitur it was reported that the senior staff of the college had decided that CCA would no longer be a standing committee on our campus. CCA is dead. No forum exists for the proposal to reinstate it. So what. Perhaps it is better that we have fewer committees; perhaps a streamlined organization is more rational now that Cabrini is larger; perhaps it makes no difference. The senior staff assures us, after all, that all of the functions
performed by CCA are now performed by other offices and groups on campus. If the senior staffbelieves this, I am afraid they have missed the point. CCA did not exist to do the jobs of student affairs, academic affairs or the student government association. It existed for the two purposes stated in the constitution: "to facilitate communication and to actively seek academic and social improvements among the students, faculty and administration of Cabrini College I CCA constitution, arti~le m. Are we to believe , as the senior staff must believe, that Cabrini no longer needs improvements; that every problem or potential problem has been identified and solved? Or are we to believe that the senior staff will solve all our problems? CCA's second mandate, as expressed in its constitution, was to seek improvements on our campus . Its record of achievements is long and impressive. The Cabrini College honor society, Rudy Rooyman's counseling center and the service and leadership awards, all came about as a result of CCA. 'lb eliminate CCA is to deny the president and all of us direct access to campus-wide sentiments, attitudes and ideas. The dissolution of CCA means everyone is a loser.
I read an article the other day that really upset me. It was a true story about two boys from Quakertown who committed suicide together several months ago. The story has been on my mind constantly and I'm still struggling for the reason why it hit me so hard. The one boy was 16, the other 17, and they both decided that their lives weren't worth living. The older one, Marc, seemed truly despondent and unhappy with his life. It was the sort of desperation though, that couldn't be helped through counseling. Counseling helped only for a moment. I don't know if anything would have helped Marc. Maybe that's what made me so sad-there was no way Marc could have gone on with his life. If he hadn't committed suicide then, he would have done it at another time. Painful-his life was unexplainably painful. Dan wasn't as troubled as Marc. He was more depressed over his girlfriend's leaving him, than he was with his life. He let it take him over though; his unhappiness got the best of him . That's part of the tragedy-Dan didn't take the chance to get back on track; Marc didn't have even have that chance. Before they handcuffed themselves together and jumped off of the quarry, they recorded their last hours talking together. The tape was eerie; they had it planned out so well, talking about it as if they were talking about their plans for the weekend. I kept wondering why there wasn't another way out for them. It was more than just sad. It made my stomach twist in knots. Sometimes I think we get so caught up in our own world that we forget that there are some people out there, not necessarily the poor and desolate either, who are so unhappy that they feel as if their life just isn't worth living . I think that's hard for some ofus to understand . I feel confused . I have read so many articles, so many sad stories, but not many hit me this hard . It stayed on my mind and I don't know why. Why, other than the fact that it was sad? I don ;t know. I've read a lot of sad stories and walked away sad, but not so upset . I went back and reread the article. It was a long article and I read some lines over and over again. Certain lines hit me like a ton of bricks, just caving in on me and really upsetting me. And it wasn 't the writer's style-the story was not written in an oversentimental way; it was actually more straight forward than emotional. There has to be another reason for the way it made me feel. It's hard for me to write this. I feel so sad, crying for kids that I never knew, but feel for a lot. I'm not unhappy with my life; maybe that's why I'm so sad. I don't have to go through what they did; I never felt that hopeless, that despaired, that full of uncertainty about myself. Right now though , I guess I just wish Marc and Dave had another chance at a better life.

Settingstudent financial aid information straight by Peggy M. Simon
The method of dist ribution of financial aid is sometimes percieved by the average stud ent as complicated and confusing . Often all that a student recipient of financial aid sees is the end result of much calculation and figuring which is the amount of money the student recei ves. Because the recipient does not see all of the behind the scenes work he may feel that he ha s been treated unfairly or that he is not receiving enough aid . The way to relieve or confirm a suspicion is to go directly to the source : the financial aid office. One of the most commonly asked questions of a financial aid recipient is why has my aid been cut? According to Arlene McEvilla , director of financial aid, cuts result from a change in

the finan cial need of the re cipient. "If a studen t applies on tim e and the ir need rem ai ns the same , aid will remain the same or possibly be increased ," McEvilla explained. Need changes usually occur due to an increase in family income(which for the most part increases ever y ye a r), stude nt income or a change in t he number of students in school. Man y student s also complain because they do not rece ive as much aid as someone else may. This would lead the studen t to believe that aid is not distributed evenly. '~id is determined in the same manner for each year . Whether the student is a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, we look at the same figures and do the same calculations ," McEvilla said . Even though it may appear as if

By the time a st udent is a senior, the student's Work Stu dy award is usually incr eas ed . However, a student's loan usually decreas es by senior year so their bill is higher.

McEvill a's examp le of this is th at although tuition is raised each year, the PA state grant has not increased since about 1977.

Collegesrely on successful recruitingtactics by Joan Kramer College fairs, college nights, alumni, friends, departmental and financial aid "open houses", posters, newspapers and radio broadcasts, all promote Cabrini College. They are all tactics for recruiting high school students from local areas and some from other nearby states. But what attracts and persuades students to enroll at Cabrini? What about promotional techniques? "Loquitur appealed to me because it informed me about the school and I also became familiar with many faces," said Lisa Rancatore, freshman. Maria Stellabotte, freshman said, "I heard more about Cabrini on a popular area radio station." According to Stellabotte, "Cabrini was also advertised in the college guide section of the Philadelphia Inquirer." Dzik commented on Cabrini as being one of the few schools in the area to use radio for promotion. Sometimes outside sources encourage students to enroll at Cabrini. Jim Cahill, freshman, said, "I had some outside contact. Michele Iatesta (sophomore) and Danny Radice Gunior) told me good things about the school and pursuaded me to come to Cabrini." Very often, the college's admissions department reaches out to students through college fairs. Ferrar said, ''A representative from a college fair at Northern High School in Maryland sparked an interest in me to find out more about Cabrini."
"Cabrini was not my only choice," Ferrar said, "I thought about Salisbury State. But, Cabrini was the only school that offered me a $1000 scholarship with an agreement that I keep a 3.6 grade point average." Financial aid is another appeal to students. Many stu dents receive different kinds of financial aid, even if they are not eligible for scholarships. Two very popular kinds of financial aid are work grant and work study. Clearly, the initial freshman response surrounds the personal atmosphere of the school and Dzik knows that. He said, "The personal nature of the college is a good sales pitch." It is likely that its small size and personal appeal are the magnets. "Cabrini is personal, comfortable and you can easily get to know everybody," said Debbie Ferrar, freshman. "Everything is personal. When I first came to Cabrini; I felt very relaxed because of the welcoming feeling that the faculty and staff gave," said Paul Murphy, freshman. "I feel that a small campus provides more than a big university because you get the quiet environment as well as the quality education," said Navaz Mehta, freshman. She added, "The one thing that let me down regarding its size is that there are around 75 students in my biology class and sometimes there are bothersome distractions." Dzik urges for a gradual growth in student enrollment and said, "It is naive for students to believe that an increase in a few hundred students will diminish the personal aspect
of the school." He then added, "The school will never outgrow its personal touch as long as we have an increase in faculty and staff as the enrollment increases ." Students are attracted and persuaded to the all around beauty of Cabrini that is conveyed through the many circulated "colorful posters and pamplets" said Dzik . "For colleges and universities, sophisticated marketing strategies are becoming the key to survival and prosperity," according to a Time magazine article entitled "Playing Hardball on Admissions." What does this mean for the future advertising of Cabrini? Dzik said, "I believe that the key to promotion success in the future will be marketing strategy. We need marketing consultants but at present, Cabrini has none." Dzik believes that television advertising is a possible future strategy, but at present is prohibitive because of the high budget involved. According to a New York Times article called ''The Business of College Recruiting, "The nation's 3000 colleges and universities are turning new attention and serious money to marketing and managing techniques and some of their tactics include television spots, detailed market research and outside consultants." Right now, whether or not Cabrini will become a part of this marketing business is questionable. If the school's intercollegiate competition continues to increase, Cabrini may have to succumb to higher forms of market advertising in order to keep up with the competitors.
Commuterclub·attempting to involveall students by Kathi Wachenheim There appears to be a misconception about the commuter affairs club, as is evident in the general concensus that the club is for commuter membership only, excluding residents' participation. The SGA constitution is proof that this is not the case. It is stated that all clubs must be open to any student of the college, regardless of status. Members of the commuter club find this misconception somewhat upsetting . As Rosemary Campbell, senior and secretary of the commuter club, said, "I do not think we try and alienate ourselves from the rest of the campus. It seems, if anything, the commuter club's goals are just the opposite of that." Last weekend's events, arranged by the commuter club, invited the whole campus' participation. The hayride and bowling party was a way for the residents and commuters to have fun together . Senior Donna Gallagher, treasurer and past president of the commuter club said , "We would like to close the gap between residents and commuters." Since the beginning of the commuter affairs club in the spring of1982, the memACCOUNTING BIO (non majors) COMPUTER SCIENCE (Computer Lab) ITALIAN FRENCH HISTORY MACROECONOMICS
hers feel they have come a long way. The club basically started out with the purpose of serving commuters. "They needed some group to fight for them," said Gallagher. They fought for such things as better class time, an enlarged parking lot, and other activities that would benefit the commuters. Now the club's goal is to get the residents involved whh the commuters. They want the residents to overcome feeling alienated from the commuters and vice, versa. The commuter club is recognized more than it has been in the past. They were involved in homecoming and have their own Christmas tree to decorate like the other clubs. Campbell said, "People are becoming aware of our club. We do not have to ask to be involved. Others automatically ask us to participate." The commuter affairs club is available for anyone with problems or questions . Anyone may volunteer for fund raisers or just participate in their scheduled activities for fun. Their meetings are alternate Tuesday's . at 12:30 a.m. in the student activities center. And y'es,even commuters are welcome.

Area hangoutsoffergood times for students by Deborah Ranck
For the more ad venturous night owls, there is Central Park at 384 West Lancaster Avenue in Wayne. This nightclub draws a fairly large crowd from Cabrini on Thursday evenings . This is due in part to the Ladies ' Night specials in which beers are a nickel a drink until 11p.m. Popular bands roar rock and roll music to customers with dancing feet . . Wayne also supplies other diversions, like the Wayne The- · ater, and a variety of pizzerias and fast food restaurants . Cabrini students also have the advantage of being close to a large city. When suburbia becomes too mundane, Cabrini students head for the bright lights and excitement of center city Philadelphia. Smokey Joe's, a college hangout at 208 South 40th Street, is especially popular, with a diversity of clientele. Matt Garrison , senior, says "Smokey Joe's is a great place to meet people from many city schools, especially students from the University of Pennsylvania, since it's right in their area." Pagano's at 38th and Chestnut is also a favorite for its sophisticated, city atmosphere. Students find this club to be a good place to dance, "especially when you want to rock or disco," says Chris Hunt, sophomore. -------------
Leaving the cares and responsibilities of college, even if only for a brief time, is a luxury that most hard-working college students anticipate. So after a long day of classes, Cabrini students are often found abandoning their books to explore the world outside of campus . The area of Wayne, which lies on the outskirts of Cabrini, provides students with many of the hot spots for their entertainment. Just one mile from campus is the Wayne Tavern, considered by many to be one of the great getaways available to students. On Tuesday nights, one can often find fellow Cabrini students conversing and listening to the juke box over bar pretzels and beer. "Wayne Tavern is a place to reminisce by listening to Frank Sinatra, or to get up and boogie listening to Chaka Khan," says Judy Buck, senior . Another feature that makes this neighborhood tavern so appealing to its student patrons is its proximity to the Wawa food market. ''.After partying we can just walk across the street for the fine selection of gourmet food available at Wawa," says Bert Siwak, senior. A restaurant hot spot for those plagued by the late night munchies,orthosewhojustcrave 'I'veevengoneto conversation over a cup of coffoe, is Minella's Mainline Diner at 320 Minella'sin my Lancaster Avenue in Wayne. pajamasat 4 a.m. just Mary Beth Evich, junior, who frequents the 'diner, says, "I've to get a Mainline even gone to Minella's in my Burgerand onion pajamas at 4 a.m. just to get a Mainline Burger and onion rings.' rings."

'Amadeus'highlightsdramaover suspensein movie by Gia DiGiminiani
The movie version of the popular Broadway play, ''.Amadeus," was recently released in theaters and has been well received by audiences, making a ticket to this movie a rare commodity. Despite the merits of the movie itself, it would be wrong to assume that the movie's version reflects the original Broadway conception of the story. ''.Amadeus" has two themes : the story of the short , unconventional life of composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and the envy of rival composer, Antonio Salieri , which drove him to a hatred so fierce that he sought the destruction of the young Mozart. The character of Mozart is a direct contrast to the image usually conjured by the stereotype of the powdered-wigged, classical composer. Mozart was a musical prodigy, composing his first concerto at seven years of age and his first opera at age nine. Despite his early musical development, he lacked maturity in his adulthood . He insulted many heads of both church and state with vulgarities and his offbeat sense of humor , causing him difficultly in main t aining employment; however, he re lished parties, drinking and women . These factors led to poverty and an early death in his thirties . at was later speculated that Salie ri had contributed to Mozart 's demise.) The movie Itself, was trul y dazzling, a nice contrast to the harsh reality of Mozart's life and th e

6 Cabrini teams:
sports
Making it to the playoffs by Eileen Riddle
The fall sports program has been underway for two months; now three of those teams , the cross country , soccer, and volleyball teams, have made it to their division playoffs. The Cabrini College cross country team has truely succeeded in becoming a top contender among their competition, said Tom O'Hora , coach of the cross country team . The team had a successful season with a record of 15-2, earning the team a position in the regionals . In the regionals at Allentown , the team earned their way into the nationals which will be held this Saturday , Nov. 17. Traveling to Parkside , Wis. for these finals , the team has high hopes of coming home to Cabrini as national champions . According to O'Hora , one main factor for the team 's success is the new recru its acquired this year. Another plus , said O'Hora , is that the team has finished in at least the top five of all the invitational s which they entered . O'Hora stated , "Spirits on the team are very high . We are all confident of winn ing . We have come a long way; the men are very close and the y are d real credit to Cabr ini ' College and for that reason alone I would like to see them win ." Peter Casazza , fre shman , is hopeful and excited . "We are taking one step at a time . Now that we won the regionals , we mu st think solely of th e national s in Wisconsin ." The Cabcin i Colle ge soccer team has also made high achievements this season with an overall record of 9-3-1. The team played Allentown College last Frida y for

Recognizingthe unsungheroes by Trish Reilly
Managers , statisticians , and trainers are considered the people "behind t he scenes." While the sports teams receive the praise or criticism and some of the players receive personal recognition, these people just quietly go about doing their jobs . Their contributions go unnoticed by most people outside the realm of the team . They perform a variety of tasks, from washing jerseys to rooting for the team. Rhonda Dannenhower and Dawn Blades , sophomores , are the managers for the men's basketball team. They are responsible for keeping the time /score and recording the stats after the games. TJ:ieymust be at the practices a half hour early to sweep the floor and get the balls ready. Dur ing the games, they make sure the team has
water and towels . The y also fold their warm-up suits. Dannenhower said, "It 's fun . It provides you with the opport un ity to be involved in something ." Blades added, "You get to go to all the games and meet people. " They both said if there is a disadvantage , it is washing the jerseys . Tony Bowden, sophomore, is one of the statisticians for the men 's basketball team . Bowden said, "I became involved mainly because I like basketball and it is something to do." Bowden's job as statistician involves recording assists , rebounds , fouls, points and other statistics . Freshmen Beth Bittner and Monica Palko are statisticians for the soccer team . Their jobs include making sure the men have water and taking down the different statistics during the game . Palko also calls the local newspaper after the games with
the score . Bittner said , "I didn't make cheer leading so now I have the opportunity to cheer them on and become more involved than a spectator." Mike Fallon , sophomore , is the manager for the volleyball team . Fallon said , "I do a little bit of everything ." Fallon was manager of the soccer team last year , but since he played for the team this year he decided to see if volleyball needed any help. He said, "I enjoy helping the team. I've learned a lot."

Commentary
Some clarificationson SGA policy In the past few SGA meetings, some recurring issues have arisen whieh the Executive Board feels need clarification ·so as to improve the overall smooth operation of the organization. These issues have been discussed at the weekly SGA meeting. Through this commentary, we hope to set policy down for the record and clarify some questions concerning these matters.
1
Dorm Reps / Hall Councils As stated in the framework of the Hall Council Constitution, it is the responsibility of the hall vice presidents to attend SGA meetings. The hall vice presidents are considered voting members of SGA. Dorm representatives roles have thus changed as a result of the newly established Hall Council guidelines. Dorm reps are NOT responsible for attending and voting at SGA meetings- since the hall vice presidents have assumed that responsibility. . . Dorm repre~entatives _ARERESPONS_I~LE for atte?dmg food committee meetmgs and for receivmg and postmg SGA minutes in their particular residences. _
All secretary/treasurers are reminded that they must submit the names of each individual dorm rep to SGA if they haven't already done so. Hopefully the confusion in role and responsibility can be clarified through these statements. Attendance Policy: SGA RESOLUTION All voting members of SGA: executive board members, class officers (including parliamentarians), club reps, and hall council vice presidents are required to attend all SGA meetings. Absence from more than three meetings per semester is equivalent to an automatic resignation from office- without warning. Club representation missing from more than three meetings will result in the immediate freeze of a club's budget. Consideration ofreinstatement will be examined only after the club has been represented in three consecutive meetings f?llowing the freeze of t~eir funding from SGA. Votmg members a~e r~quire_d to fin_da replacement to come to the SGA meetmg m their place if an absence cannot be avoided. The replacement at the meeting should
·
approach the SGA recording secretary and give the reason why the member could not attend. No more than four replacement absences are allowed for any one semester. SGA reserves the right to question any absence reported to them and to evaluate the legitimacy of the claim. Evaluation of members It has been proposed that records and evaluations be compiled on each SGA member and their performance, to be distributed to the student body and respective class members. This will enable voters to be updated and to be aware of the behavior of the candidates that they voted into office and may be considering to reelect to serve another term. This evaluation idea is a serious point of discussion and consideration since it is an additional way to hold elected representatives responsible for their actions in office. Hopefully these clarifications have answered some of the concerns and confusions which may have surrounded certain SGA positions and obligations. Any additional feedback and ideas are welcome and are directed to discussion at the SGA meetings.
'Juniorsfor Seniors'aids countyservicesfor aging What a difference a word makes ... Contrary to popular opinion, there is a difference between "Junior Senior" (which was the semi-formal dinner dance held three weeks ago) and "Juniors FOR Seniors" (whose focus constitutes an age difference of about 45 years). Exactly what is Juniors for Seniors? Juniors for Seniors is a program sponsored by individual concerns throughout Delaware County (one of the counties in which Cabrini is located) in cooperation with Wawa Food Markets, to benefit and subsidize 'oelaware County senior citizen centers. This is the second consecutive year which Cabrini College has been involved in one form or another in sponsoring activities of Juniors for Seniors Week . Through this effort Cabrini is trying to extend themselves beyond this campus and into the community to address a major concern that the Cabrini community should be aware of- the importance of the elderly and the providing for their needs. Statistics prove that the elderly population is growing larger and larger each year. This creates a real need to establish more senior centers and get stronger services into place to accomodate this growing concern, according to the organizers of the event. In establishing stronger services for the aging, long range planning according to a projected outlook towards the future can be intiated. In this way we, as a college, can recognize the importance of these people who comprise a majority of the population. According to Jean Findlay, senior, coorganizer of the Cabrini events for our Juniors for Seniors campaign, "In the past there existed an extended family structure where there were larger families- and thus a larger support system for people as they grew older. Now with the family unit decreasing in size, where there are only one or two children per family as a norm, other resources and support systems need to be implemented for adults as they reach senior citizen status and are eligible to derive benefits from effective services and planning.
social
activities
The facts are that Delaware County boasts the third largest elderly population in the state. Also, 18 percent of all Delaware County residents are 60 years of age or older. There are 13 operating senior centers in the county which provide hot meals, health screening and social programs along with other services. Cabrini, through the efforts of the social work club, the social work department, and some human services management majors, under the direction of Sr. Regina Peterson, chairperson of the social work department, recognize the needs of the senior population in this area and have committed themselves annually to the task of drawing the campus into extending beyond themselves to contribute to this cause. At the outset of the campaign , an arbitrary financial goal of $1000 was targeted . As of Nov. 6.,about $675 ofthis..amount.had,--■--~ been realized through contributions, button sales (the infamous red and white Juniors for Seniors pins which have been peddled for the past few weeks and a Halloween fundraising event. The week ofNov.12th thru Nov. 17th has been designated as Cabrini 's Juniors for Seniors week. Some of the highlights of the week include a scheduled visit Cabrini day for senior citizens, where they will be provided with the opportunity to audit classes and learn of programs offered here through which they may be interested in continuing their education. Friday, Nov. 16 has been set aside for a campus-wide grandparents theme day, culminating in a dinner dance for young and old alike, where our own campus djs will be joined by some senior djs for a while. Stacey M~Cullough, senior, co-organizer of the week, commented, "The success of the campaign so far can be attributed to better organization and planning along with more campus involvement, especially among the upperclassmen. I feel that the students, with the proper direction, took the ball of this project and ran with it."
update
No, it's NOT Bowling for Dollars ... It's Cabrini night at Devon Lanes sponsored as part of the festivities of Commuter Week. SGA would like to commend the hard work and effort of the commuters in the execution of this first annual event and thank them for helping to further increase commuter /resident relationships at Cabrini.
