by Rita S. Cellucci Sister Eileen Currie, president, announced last week in a meeting with the faculty that the college faces a projected deficit of $800,000.

In October, the board of trustees are to meet to discuss the situation and to decide upon a solution.

Until then Currie has ordered a budget hold.

A budget hold allows the departments to spend only 70 percent of thc::irexpense line.

Dr. Jerome Zurek, head of the

English/communications Department, said, "This is a serious budget situation."

The budget hold puts in effect a freeze of certain expenditures.

The department chairpersons can only spend their alloted money on important purchases, such as books, equipment, conferences, etc. Less important purchases must be put off.

Zurek said the communications department is very expensive and much is needed in order for students to'learn their field of study.

However, this hold affects every

department and person at Cabrini, according to Zurek Anthony Tomasco, head of the psychology department, said his department, along with the other major ones, is being affected. The psychology department had plans for new equipment in terms of instructional materials, supplies, and computer hardware. According to Tomasco, the departments are surviving on 70 percent of lats year's budget. more Budget on 8

Minorityaffairsposf debated

by Sharlene Sephton Recent flare-ups caused by racial tensions on universities nationwide have given rise to the nontraditional, high-ranking position of minority affairs officials.

Cabrini administrators are still debating whether to hire such a director eight months after the Coalition Against Racial and Ethnic inTirnidation (CARET) responded to racial attacks on campus with marches and rallies.

"Something is needed," President Sister Eileen Currie, M.S.C., said. "I am not convinced that a single person is needed.' ' A recent article in the Chronicle of Higher Education, discussing the success of minority affairs officials, stated, "Regardless of how they come into being, it is critical that the posts gain the firm support of the campus president to maintain the juggling act

that those in the position say the job requires."

Currie said that there have been differing opinions in both small and full committee meetings of the senior staff and board of trustees.

Dean of Students, Dr. Robert Bonfiglio explains they are in the process of evaluating the validity and efficiency of the position.

"The senior staff is still deliberating on the nature of the position and the ways to insure that such a position would serve the campus in a positive way, rather than allocate all responsibility to one person and allow offices to abdicate all responsibility," Bonfiglio said.

According to Currie, Academic Dean Dr. Antoinette Schiesler has held a similar position involved with minority affairs, and could give a better more Debate on 4

Budgetwoes stifleSGA planningfor the coming year

by Carlo Iacono The student government association is experiencing budget woes. Its financial hands are shackled because the organization's budget is likely to be slashed by 30 percent and it has to pay back debts incurred in prior years.

SGA' s purse strings were tightened in August when Duplifax copier company issued a payment due slip through Howard and Sobel Law Associates. The request was for $899.57 from an unpaid toner and service call of May 1989. Litagation was threatened if the bill was not paid immediately.

According to SGA President Frank

Emmerich, the association was also dealt a surpriseblow when a percentage of its annual budget was withheld. SQA assumed a working budget of $20,000 based on last year's total, but it was told that it would receive just $14,000 with the chance of receiving another $6000 next semester.

The receiving of that 30 percent is contingent upon the approval of the campus budget by the board of trustees in October, according to John Barclay, chief financial officer.

A check issued on Sept. 5 by SGA for the payment due terminated further legal action on the part of Duplifax. This bill, combined with the 1990 Superthon payment

of a $2000 to the Ronald McDonald House, and a $113 per month copier lease through City Lease, leaves student government with a total of $9000 to work with. ''That total hurts because Superthon alone is about $5000, and student activities division gets $5000," Emmerich said.

According to Katie Mullen, SGA treasurer, the copier incident illustrates student government's tendency to allow bills to float from board to board or fall between the cracks of the treasury. Because of the nature of the board, where members may be changing from year to year, several bills from the end of one year often carry over to the next.

"When I came into office there were several outstanding bills, bl!t it was a common practice,'' Angie Corbo, 1989-90 SGA president said. "We are talking around $1500."

"I thought we had last year's bills all worked out, until the threat from Duplifax,'' Emmerich said. ''Every year bills come from the prior year," Mullen said. "We have a tendency to overspend and that is a problem."

But in the case of the copier, overspending was not theculpritasmuchasmisundermore SGA on 8

Fillinga blackhole Just say no!

There is a void on campus. It is_deep and threatening, and it needs to be filled before it ruptures and caves in.

A minority affairs division, complete with a full-time staff member and council to serve as their support committee, is the only way to fill in the grooves.

The first cracks started to spider during the racial cns1s m February.

Minority issues and complaints that had long been ignored and passed over by administrators started to resurface.

The time was ripe for change, and the conditions and awareness have been set to give rise to the new post. _ Haverford College's multicultural position was created under similar circumstances in 1977 with the mandate that it "should stimulate visible, sustained witness to the college's commitment to racial, ethnic, and economic diversity.''

Thirteen years behind, our administration still doesn ,-thave the guts to give action to their words.

The college's mission of "working for peace and justice, working against poverty and oppression, promoting personal and interpersonal growth, and increasing compassionate concern for all human beings,'' is a job description for a minority affairs officer in itself.

These values of the college, however, will continue to crumble if the the sparks from eight months ago are allowed to die out because of administration's hesitation.

Further action needs to be taken on implementing the ideas of proposals, such as CARET' s and the Commission on Campus Life, or they will stagnate.

The marches and rallies and meetings since last spring will have meant little.

Minority recruitment has more than tripled since last year. Admissions has done an admirable job of getting minorities here. The questions remain, what are we going to do with them, and what support services do we have to offer minorities? Now that they're here, why should they stay?

A minority affairs officer would know. The positiol} has the potential of being a very powerful, creative, and unique one. If the right person is hired for it, and then only if they are given the authority, support, and recoginition from administration, their success could change the campus' direction.

Not only would they be a resource for those being discriminated against, but also an organizer. Someone to implement and organize tbe multicultural ideas and programs that so many facets of the college are beginning to instituite.

It does not mean the responsibility for changing the campus rests on solely on the minority affairs position. It is simply a person to coordinate the avlrilable services, encourage students to take advantage of them, and break down some of the barriers of racism by getting people involved.

If we truly believe in ourselves as a liberally educative college, then we must open up to diversity. ·with such a dynamic position of minority affairs official, and the support of all the students, faculty, staff, and administration, we can shrink the black hole.

sharlen sephton perspectives~ editor Three simple words make it seem so easy. The power of persuasion and the need to be affirmed, however, often keep us silent. Or worse yet, we pledge "yes," and sacrifice our own interests.

Until Nancy Reagan created the catch phrase for her anti-drug campaign, though, it never occurred to any of us to just say no.

Maybe she was the only one to have the creativity or the ct>urage.

"No,'' is one of the first concepts we can distinguish as a child. We know what it means even before we recognize it as a word and can articulate it. The first time the pacifier or blankie is taken away from us, we understand. It leaves us with an emptiness and resentment.

"No,'' means we can't always have what we want. Even if we are being denied something for our own good, it doesn't make the hurt or anger any better. No, you are not allowed to display artistic talent by scribbling on the walls. No, you can't pull the kitty's tail. No, you may not stay out past the set curfew. No, and that's final.

By the time we are toddlers, though, we realize, we too can manipulate the word itself. It no longer has to confine us. We can get back and rebel. We have control and we have power. The two-year-old who refuses to take a bath realizes he has a choice. He is asserting what few rights he has.

Somewhere between toddler and adolescence, however, we learn the consquences of saying no to certain people and under particular circumstances. We know what we can get away with.

It dawns on us at some point, that not taking a bath could be the reason not many friends are willing to sit next to us in class.

Rebelling against authority, your parents, and school may get what you want, but it also may very likely get you grounded.

We are all too familiar with what it feels like when the rejection is directed at ourselves. The teenage boy sits on the edge of his bed with phone receiver in hand. He summons up his courage, and thinks to himself, "Oh God, what if she ·says no?"

The receiver clicks down again.

The word, "no,'' wields a lot of power.

It can do irreversible damage, or it can be constructive. We must learn how to use it and not abuse it.

You see, ·'no,'' is not an easy thing for a lot of people to say. We live in a "yes,'' world. We say "yes" to magazine ads because they make us feel as if we need their product to be accepted. We say "yes" to sex because we want to feel important, loved, and accepted. We say "yes" to drugs because they give us the false courage to act as if we are accepted.

We all want to be pleasers because that seem's to be the easiest way for people to like us. The question is, if you say "yes" every time, how much will people respect you?

This holds especially true for women, because historically society has trained them to be passive and cooperative.- When men hear a woman say, "no,'' it is often misconstrued as meaning "yes."

A woman's assertiveness is not taken serious.ly.

It is not seen as complimentary.

Women have fought long and hard to say "no" to urtfair pay rates and sexual discrimination. They have learned that being assertive does not rob them of their femimmty. Women can celebrate in saying "no" with confidence for it enables them to be respected as capable people.

If everyone based their total being on making others happy and forgot about themselves, eventually, there would be nothing left to share. It's not selfish to put our own feelings first, by having to say· 'no" sometimes. It gives us the freedom to follow our dreams.

There's nothing wrong with saying "no." The phrase is linked to a lot of guilt,

The word, "no," wields a lot of power... We must learn how to use it and not abuse it. and reminds us of the rejection it can stir in ourselves since childhood. It reminds us that sometimes we do fail, and we don't always get what we want.

Saying ''no'' does not make you any less of a person. In fact, a sign of a good leader is knowing your limits. It takes a lot of selfevaluation and a lot of courage to say it. It means knowing who you are and that we all have a breaking point when we need to take some time out in order to be the most effective.

In the demanding world we live in today, saying "no" is essential to survival. We have to stick up forour own rights. It means not worrying so much about the approval of others, but protecting our own self-interests, working on our own terms.

So in the meantime, be the kind, supportive person you are, but don't forget th.it there's always more than one answer. By saying' 'no," you can say' 'yes'' to yourself.

Night under the lightsmakes h_istory This was an evening of perfection, an evening of adrenalin and an eveningofmemories. Although the actual number of us totalled a mere 32,000, I am sure that in years to come, millions of people will recall how they were there to see it.

On August 15, 1990, the evening air in South Philadelphia was filled with victory and joy as a 27year-old. left-handed pitcher from Uniontown, Pennsylvania fulfilled and even surpassed his and our own wildest dreams. On this evening, the young man wearing number 45 would pitch nine innings against the 1989 National League Champion San Francisco Giants and all not one hit. In one evening, Terry Mulholland became everyone's hero.

Now, before you decide to tum to page six because you think this is just another sports opinion, I ask you to trust me in reading on because this story has more to do with people than with a game played by grown men of six months out of the year.

What Terry Mulholland performed on August 15, was something that had not been done by a Phillies pitcher in Philadelphia in this century. To give you some idea of the magnitude of that statement, think of this: It had not been done in Ronald Reagan's lifetime. Furthermore, ityou have personally met someone who was at the last such event in Philadelphia, then perhaps you have also had the privilege of entertaining President and Mrs. McKinley for dinner. (On July 8, 1898, Phils pitcher Red Donahue, to my knowledge no relation to Phil, no-hit the Boston Braves, 5-0.)

Still, some of you may not be impressed. This is understandable for any "iion-baseball fan. However, on thisevening ofhistorymy

There is a special bond between baseball fans. The guy you wanted to beat the hell out of for stealing your parking space is the same guy you end of hugging and having a beer with after a game-winning hom~run. By the eighth inning, Arthur, myself, and the 32,000 others gathered in South Philadel-

Student success linked to educational values the aim of education can really be nothing less than the promotion of the human in all aspects of work with young people. Granted, education also involves the promulgation of knowledge and the acquisition of basic skills; nonetheless, all this belongs ultimately to the development of human relationships and values."

our cultural values as: an overemphasis on the benefits and not the responsibilities of individual freedom; a highly idealized conception of consumerism and conspicuous consumption, and the unrelenting pursuit of sexual gratification. At the risk of sounding puritanical, I would agree with Father O'Hare. The ability of our society to function with these values has become further complicated by what appears to be a large number of dysfunctional homes and increasing racial and ethnic diversity throughout the country.

A college education, and a Cabrini education in particular, must attempt to confront students with the values of the institution and focus on the points of divergence with societal values. Specifically, that is our charge in student success. This is why much of the work of the sutdent services area centers around programming, such as orientation, leadership development, and residence hall activities. It is through our programs that we as administrators strive to address issues.that will result in educational change. It is through our programs that we fulfill our education role, and support the mission of the college.

Schlesier, however, was unable to comment on the responsibilities of her past role.

According to the Chronicle, defining the nature of the position and clearly stating its objectives and granting the authority needed to carry out those objectives is essential. Reginald Wilson, a senior scholar at the American Council on Education, said, "Creating the positions is not a problem. The important things are preparing the campus and defin-

Both CARET' s proposal and the report of the Commission on Cabrini Campus Life, recommended the hiring of a full-time staff member during the 19901991 academic year. Their suggestions outline the responsibilities for a minority affairs offical as including, but not being limited to, minority issues, support services, programming, and attendance at administrative meetings.

"I have not seen a position description that I have liked that fits Cabrini's style," Currie said.

Currie feels that the position has an inherent lack of trust built into it. "It points the finger at one person and says, 'he's to blame,"' Currie said.

Because the minority affairs position is a non-traditional one, a second fear is that it will just be another layer of bureaucracy.

"Such a model often becomes a title, or just another branch of student affairs,'' Currie said.

Charles D. Moody, vice-provost for minority affairs at the Universtiy of Michigan, said, "That to be successful, minority-affairs administrators 'must be woven into the fabric and fiber of institutions,"' according to the Chronicle.

CARET meetsto re-orga~ize,

by Charles Waterfall

The campus' Coalition Against Racial and Ethnic Intimidation (CARET) regrouped Tuesday to discuss the future of the organization. The 12 students whoattended agreed to not allow the group to fizzle, as some thought it would.

In response to the racial incidents which have occured on campus over the past year, CAREf came into being. ' To make themselves visible as a coalition, they demonstrated by marching and staging a sit-in. Things seemed to have calmed down since then.

"CARET is still here and still working," member Juliann Marie

Dunn said.

Because CARET demonstrated and marched in such a vocal way, some may have believed the group to be radical. ,Changing that image is one of the several goals to be . worked upon this fall.

"We've slapped people in the · face," CARET member, Kevin Koknar said. '' If we keep doing it, it would be abuse."

"We should be asocial organization, based on cultural diversity rather than a radicalgroup that some would be for, but others, against,'' Koknar said.

The organization would also like to have speakers representing CARET for both Peace Week (October 14) and Cultural Aware-

ness Week (November 5-9). One ideal speaker, according to member, Anna Rodriguez, would be Dr. Simmons, presently teaching the course, Minorities in Sub-Cultures.

Other intentions involve interaction with other colleges, having a mix.er in conjunction with the Black Student Alliance (BSA), and finding a trademark, such as having ethnic food served at social gatherings. "I think that it will be different,'' Rodriguez said. ''I am psyched."

The Student Government Association does not provide funding because CARET is not yet under their membership, although it is recognized as a functioning organization.

"NightAngel:"She's hell on earth

by Kelly Reed

Photos courtesyof Richard Lewis

An unearthly, beautiful being rises from the fires of hell. She is Lilith the Queen of Hell, and the subject of the movie "Night Angel."

Lilith is a demon-like version of Eve. Lilith and Adam were supposedly made together out of the dust of the earth by God. She refused to be subservient to Adam and ran off to the Red Sea, were she copulated with demons and then became one herself.

Lilith is doomed to go through life seeking the pleasure of sex but never finding true love.

The movie opens with the death of the editor of the international fashion magazine Siren.

A death caused when Lilith seduces him and then proceeds to plunge her hand into his chest and rip out his heart.

The scenes in which Lilith slays her victims are particularly graphic and are not for the weak at heart Lilith lures one unsuspecting male with an erotic, animal-like dance and then procedes to push him down an elevator shaft.

The plot behind the movie is that Lilith wants to be on the cover of Siren magazine at any cost, and she will kill anybody who gets in her way.

The hero and heroine are Siren's art director Craig Matthews and Kirstie, the sister of Siren's new editor.

After seducing Siren's new editor, played by actress Karen Black, the entire magazine staff is under Lilith's spell.

It is up to Kirstie and Matthews to either save their friends and co-workers or perish the grisly death that Lilith has in store for them.

The special effects in "Night Angle!" were unbelievable with several EFX sequences, as well as numerous sound and lighting changes that added to the ominous atmosphere.

The death scenes were very convincing and kept the audience on the edge of their seats for most of the movie.

Convincing performances by Isa Andersen, as Lilith , Debra Feuer, as Kirstie, Linden Ashby, as Craig Matthews and last but not least Karen Black, as Rita.

Siren's editor-in-chief, add to make this a uniquely frightening horror film.

Actress Isa Andersen is transformed into the demonic Lilith in the movie "Night Angel. "

Isa Andersen:insidethe characterof Lilith

by Kelly Reed

Her long, black fingernails trail up and down his back while she bites on his ear ever so lightly.

There is a dark, heavy atmosphere in the room and a chilled wind seems to blow through the set.

"That's a take!"

Isa Andersen, the star of the horror film "Night Angel" spent much of the last few months working on scenes like the one described above.

Andersen was born in communist East Germany. Her parents escaped communism and fled to West Germany, where Andersen grew up in cities like Munich.

She began modeling for fashion magazines at a very early age, which allowed her to travel in countries like France, Italy and the United States.

It was while she was living in New York City that she decided to try a few acting classes. Andersen liked acting

so much that she decided to audition for parts in movies and films.

Guest shots on shows like "Cheers" and "Airwolf' led to starring roles opposite stars like Jim Belushi and John Ritter in United Artist's "Real Men." It was while traveling through Europe that Andersen picked up her impressive repertoire of dialects which include German, French, Russian, and English.

Andersen now lives in Los Angeles, CA and has lived in the United States for the last five years.

"I love living in Los Angeles, this is where American films are made,'' Andersen said. '' here film making is a real business.''

In Germany the film industry produces very little movies on their own, most of the films shown there and in the rest of Europe are 85 per cent American made and produced.

"I would love to make a film in my native Germany, but there are very few parts and even fewer good strong roles for ,

women,'' Andersen said.

The character of Lilith that Andersen plays in the movie Night Angel is a very strong role for a woman. The character had complete control over all of the men in Night Angel.

"I think that there needs to be more equality in the type of roles that actresses are being offered." "Stronger female character~ need to be developed,'' Andersen said.

Andersen researched the role of Lilith by reading sections out of the "Talmud", a Jewish religious book, and from variou:; books on myths and legends.

She enjoys reading about the unexplainable. and believes that there are some things that just cannot be explained with scientific or rational explanations. ''People need to be more open to the ideas of reincarnation and other thoughts that do not go along with conservative thinking,'· Andersen said.

Fascination,intrig_ue and lo.neliriess are all a part of comingto A-mericaand Cabrini

by Lorraine Marie Lill Chiaki Suzuki has taken her first step on to Cabrini's campus. As she looks around, people appear different. Everything seems to be moving rapidly. Taking a chance, she approaches an older gentlemen to ask direc· tions. Although she knows the language fairly well, she ponders over words to use with fear of not speaking properly.

Fascination, intrigue, and loneliness soar through her body. She knows no one. · She has no idea what is awaiting her. Traditions, customs, emotions, and expressions are all different. She has come here to study.

She has come to America.

Nancy Gardner, director of admissions, meets these students upon entrance to Cabrini. Many of the students who come here have this type of experience.

Students from other countries must ob· tain a student visa which allows them to study in America until they complete their course of study, said Gardner.

In 1986 when Gardner started working at Cabrini there were no international students studying here on student visas. The first students to study at Cabrini on student visas did not come until the fall of 1987.

Gardner said that there is a lot of interest from international students to study here and Cabrini could possibly accept more students, however, there is not enough support on campus. If the school is to add too many more international students, a full time International Student Advisor would be necessary.

Tuesday night during the Woodcrest and WCAB's party with "The Dream Team"Ace & Goose, Boo Boo and the Bud Man.

a memberof the faculty or staff may have met them while visiting their country, or perhaps a friend told them about Cabrini.

Natacha Bolufer, a Spanish student, said that the former theater teacher, Dan Perna, met her while visiting Spain and asked her to come to Cabrini to study.

Ines Bolufer, Natacha's sister, came here to study because of her sister's experiences here.

Most of the international students are able to speak more than one language. Natacha and Ines are both able to speak Spanish, French, English and a language spoken on the east coast of Spain called Valenciano.

Natacha and Ines are considered Spanish, yet they were born in Paris and moved to Spain when they were still children. Their father is Spanish and their mother is French.

A student from Morocco named ElMostafa Nechchadi is multilingual as well.

He speaks Arabic, French, Italian, and English.

Nechchadi will be running cross country for Cabrini this fall. He is a world class runner. In 1987 Nechchadi was third in the world for marathon running. He has also won five world championships with Morocco.

Because of the different culture and customs positive and sometimes negatives feelings are experienced.

"When I would meet someone in Spain we would kiss and here you don't do it.

Sometimes I find that cold," Natacha Bolufer said. ''The difference sometimes makes us feel alienated."

Suzuki, a Japanese student said, "In Japan we don't say things straight. We say no, we mean no, but we don't say it straight.

Here you have to say no right away. In the beginning I was not use to it so when people said no to mj!, I was hurt."

"I confuse sometimes the way people gesture or smile, because every country is very specific about that and when you switch countries you notice that,•' Ines said.

"Certain things in the United States you can say with a smile on your face and if

someone would say the same thing to you in Spain, you would say this person is laughing at you," Ines said.

One thing that international students find amusing is how Americans cannot admit that they are only American when they are asked what nationality they are.

"We do laugh,notinameanway,butwe do find it funny that American people do not accept that they are North Americans simply," Ines said. "They always need to go back to their background."

Schooling in Europe is much different than in the United States, according to these students.

"The system of studying here is enjoyable. I would not criticize it because it is enjoyable. In Europe your courses are chosen for you,'' Ines said.

"We do laugh,not in a mean way, but we do find it funnythat Americanpeople do not acceptthat they are NorthAmericanssimply.

They alwaysneed to go back to their background."

- Ines Bolufer, senior Ines feels that school is extremely difficult in Europe. They have many students, but not enough universities. '' Students are going to fail, that is the way we control our amount of students in a classroom," Ines said. "It's a selective system where they select who is better to fight and who cannot do it.''

The students said they like America.

Many want to stay after they graduate if it is possible. In order for them to stay they must obtain a work visa which is good for a year.

Roomates: a mixing of styles and personalities

by Kimberly Marshall What happens when The Cure fan meets the classical music addict and they are forced to live with a Bart Simpson clone?Somehow the posters, clothing, styles and personalities must all fit into a 13ft. by 20ft. room.

Megan O'Brien, a freshman, felt that getting along with her roommates made the first days of starting college easier. "I thought it would be harder since we all had our own rooms at home." Her one roommate, Sue Aster, said ''We all m·ade the transition really well."

Some do not adjust as well.

According to Michelle McKenna and Charlyne Adams, freshmen, their third roommate only arrived with two bags and left that same night. Her mother was making her Jive on campus, according to McKenna. Adams said that she and McKenna are certainly not enemies but they are not best friends either.

Although majority of the women in Woodcrest live in tripled

rooms, some of them do not seem to mind.

"Everything is cool," said freshman Jennifer Yates.

Carolyn Freitas said her one roommate has a boyfriend but that they all get along great. " We have different personalities and different friends," Justine Kozileski said.

It seems that having )hings in common helps. Belinda Desher and Joann Carbone, who Jive in Woodcrest's penthouse, have the same major, two classes together and the same study habits. "Little things happen which are stupid," Desher said.

Alex Szep and Rich Dreher of Xavier are always doing stuff together, according to friends.

Freshman Ray Larkin thinks he was really lucky getting Dave Hirsch as his roommate. ''He is so much like me that I can not foresee . any problems." They have the same views on relationships, sports and partying.

Freshman John Young said of his roommate, "We are different people, but we get along and we are interested in the same music."

He also said that his roommate is considerate and does not smoke when he is in the room.

Carlee Fortmann, freshman,was able to room with the same person she roomed with for orientation.

Freshman Patricia Monaghan did not find out she was going to live oncampus until just before school began. Monaghan is living with sophomore Susan Carroll and thinks

on each other's nerves and we are both easy going," Keenan said.

"We hititoffrightaway," said Elizabeth Baumstatk about her roommate of three previous years, Amy Cassari. •"After a while, it was a ·given that we would room together," Baumstark said. She also feels that the reason they have been together this long is because they are so different.

Resident assistants said gener-

ally, they feel there have not been \oo many problems thus far. Lisa Lindley said she thinks her first floor of sophomores in Woodcrest are wonderful. According to Mary Shimkus, the freshman are getting along except for petty matters.

Shimkus said of the women, "No tears have been shed yet."

Jeff Hines, RA in Xavier Hall said everything is fine and Ed McN amee said the same of the Freshman men in Xavier.

Then there are people like junior, Michele Adelman, who prefers to live by herself. "After living on my own for so long, I found it hard to share a room,'' Adelman said.

Catherine Caulfield, director of resident life, said that her department expected more conflicts.

"A lot of the roommate relationships are individual since we can only do so much with the questionnaires and having to triple some people." Caulfield did say that they were able to fulfill many room assignments with people who wanted to Iive together after meeting at summer orientation.

Life after age five is easy, according to Fulgham

by Alexandra Napoleon Crayola Crayons. Every child goes through boxes of them. But have you ever had the box of 64 with the built-in sharpener?

Robert Fulgham, the author of "All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten•• recently bought himself a box, because he had never had a set when he was a child. Crayolas are im integral part of life, Fulgham says. They develop creativity and imagination. He also suggests that the United States drop Crayola bombs, happiness weapons, to "cover the world with imagination.'• Fulgham' s '' uncommon thoughts on common things'• range from strange experiences with jumper cables and trick-or-treating the week before Christmas to merI

maids, giants, wizards, and dwarfs, and spiritual advice from "The New York Times Almanac.•• Fulgham, explores everyday experiences and asks why, how, and what?--questions that children ask, and adults frequently neglect to.

In the preface of this book, Fulgham relates his psychology of himself, "a small map, in case you get lost." He tells us how he writes, that he contradicts himself and often says things that do not make sense. It would be great if we each had a "small map" to guide each of us through our own lives the way Fulgham's leads us through his book. Then we could not be too far off track and could find it again. Also Fulgham explains how his book seems to be disconnected, but each chapter is a vignette which is part

WCAB • prepping ·for FM

by Matthew Brush

/'t,IJa ......

As the days draw closer for WCAB switching from AM to FM radio, the staff is working relentlessly to put their hard work together for January's projected finish.

Chrisy Roach, station manager ofWCAB,said. ''Tangible people will be listening, so we'll have to run an Emergency Broadcast System (EBS), broadcast to real advertisers, and most importantly our staff will have to be more professional then ever before."

Last January WCAB, along with Villanova University, applied for a grant from the federal government that would enable them to receive up to $500,000 in a joint venture.

This fund would allow each school to purchase state of the art equip-

pholOby Mark Gudas

The WCAB studio will need to be enlarged for FM broadcasting.

Bud Mellon, WCAB's adviser said.

The signal will have a radius of 15 miles, a far cry from what WCAB-AM has now. The present signal reaches just the outskirts of the campus.

Villanova, whose call letters are WKVU, will share both the grant and air time with Cabrini. "They (Villanova) might have better equipment but not as good of a dee jay staff as Cabrini,'' Mellon said.

Cabrini's time slots on FM will be Sundays from noon until midnight, along with Wednesdays and Fridays from 12:01 a.m. untilmidnight. When WCAB is not on FM mept. they can be heard on 650 WCAB"If the grant doesn't come_ AM following the same format through, we'll just have to broad- followed this semester, starting cast in mono instead of stereo," September 17.

Barron's is a widely-used guide to four-year colleges and universities in the United States. In it is varied infonnation on each college or university, including a rate for how competitive each one is. In it, Cabrini College is listed as a "less competitive" college.

"Don't gettrapped by that kind of definition.'' Dr. Joi yon Girard, chainnan of the history and political science department said. "You can ~asily define Cabrini as a thirdrate college if you play that type of word game.''

Girard added that it is difficult to rate Cabrini with the same credentials as one would rate Harvard, like Barron's does.

Mallowe, in a similar state-

In this category, Mallowe's own opinion, he rated Cabrini as third best, tied with Villanova University and Chestnut Hill College, with St. Joseph's and LaSalle Universities finest in the area.

According to Girard, what re-

Some of the students on campus agree with Mallowe's review.

Angela Visco, freshman, said, "When I tell my friend where I am going to college, they look at me like I'm going to Guam."

Another freshman, Dominique Drew, has similar experiences.

Vassallo resigns as bookstore manager, position responsibilities split for near future

by Carlo Iacono

Albert Vassallo

file photo

-

Albert Vassallo, manager of campus bookstore since Cabrini's founding, resigned his post Thursday.

Vassallo, whose namesake is borne in the store sign, submitted his resignation and subsequent retirement to his immediate superior, Chief Financial Officer, John Barclay.

Barclay, who was away on vacation at the time of Vassallo' s resignation, was made aware of the departure upon his return, according to the business office. No offical memo or written statement was submitted

by Vassallo at press time, rather a verbal statement to his superior and various campus departments.

"I just figured that it was time to go," Vassallo said, '' I made my decision to retire and that was it."

With no offical statement on his resignation, Vassallo simply stated that Thursday will be his last day.

According to the secretary to the director of financial aid, Christine Rakowski, Vassallo' s responsibilities will be overtaken by

purchasing manager, Sr. Antonina Avitabile and business office cashier, Judy Barnes.

Vassallo spent the better part of his final day training the two.

Work study students will be coordinated to keep the bookstore operation open between 8:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.

"Jayda Zazyczny (book store worker) has been wonderful in helping me coordinate and instruct new employees," Rakowski said.

Those close to Vassallo and aware of his reposibilities felt that the job may have been too much for one individual due to the growth of the college and industry itself.

"Albert did a credible job, but it was getting to the point where it was impossible for one person to do," Sam Vasiliades, mailroom manager said. "The position warrants two people even though Albert was on top of things.''

Rakowski said, "I think the position could use two (people), if not two full-time positions, maybe one full-time and another parttime person."

Vassallo gave no indication of the

weight of his reponsibilites warranting his resignation. •'I blame no one or nothing, rather I just figured that it was time to go.'• With the college in a hiring freeze, the prospect of two managers filling Vassallo's void is probably technically and financially unfeasable.

"Technically there is a hiring freeze but I don't know the contingency or time table of filling the position, that is up to John (Barclay)," Francis Conwell, payroll manager, said.

As far as the hiring of a new manager, Barclay is responsible for that void. Barclay was unavailable for comment, due to a vacation, at press time. , The bookstore is property of the college. Vassallo's namesake was on the store sign due to the years of service at the institution.

Vassallo retired from his post once before in 198 I. After a semester hiatus, Vassallo returned citing a request from the institition.

"I think he did a wonderful job, and a lot of people will be sad to see him go,'' Rakowski said.

Commencement speaker search underway for May

by Melissa Landsmann The senior class is at a serious disadvantage as it begins its search for a commencement speaker.

In order to get their first choice, the search should have begun during their sophomore year, according to Dr. Sharon Schwarze, professor of philosophy.

At least a year advance notice is needed in order to reserve the most choice speakers.

Schwarze was responsible for obtaining the 1990 graduation speaker, Lynne Cheney, the most well-blown speaker Cabrini has

had in years.

Senior class officers are meeting with the graduation committee, which consists of senior class officers and administration.

The senior class officers form a list of possible speakers and then meet with the graduation committee to submit names to Sister Eileen Currie, president, and the Board of Trustees who formally invite the speaker. ''The more in advance you plan, the better your chance of choosing and reserving a good speaker," Dr. Jolyon Girard, professor of history said.

Planning this late means that the senior class may have to "scrape from the bottom of the barrel" as far as speakers are concerned, according to Schwarze.

'• A commencement speaker should be indicative of what the college honors,'' Schwarze said.

According to Schwarze,the luxury of deciding who Cabrini is and what it honors h~ never been afforded because the search for a speaker was delayed and the options became limited.

Students also have to be realistic in choosing potential speakers.

ampus ready to go for cable hook-ups

by Matt Hodlofski While you were home over the summer vegetating on your couch, did you get used to watching CNN HEADLINE NEWS and keeping up with all the information on the Persian Gulf crisis?

Did you love keeping up with your favorite musical artists' videos on MTV? Did you enjoy watching lost sitcoms from the 1960s and 1970s such as "Gilligan's Island" and "The Brady Bunch?"

Did you bask in the enjoymentof watching ESPN'sFriday and Monday night's Double Heaper Baseball Games of the Week? Then, when you came to Cabrini, did you find your television habits were rudely cutoff? Well, fear not.

Cabrini College will have cable on campus, and sooner than expected. Chuck Balestra, marketing manager at Adelphia Cable in Wayne, said a table would be set up in the cafeteria for order-

ing cable as early as this past Wednesday (September 19) or at the latest sometime next week. The actual installation of the cable will begin a week after ordering has begun.

Adelphia Cable, which is the most comprehensive cable system

0

in the Philadelphia suburban area, having 52 basic channels and all the premium channels such as Prism, Home Box Office, etc."will be available all through Xavier Hall and all seven resident houses.

"The two other resident halls,

Counsel and Woodcrest, will not be able to receive cable service until the success of cable for the rest of Cabrini is determined,'' Balestra said. The Mansion will ~o not be wired for cable immediately.

Janice Reuter, freshmen and resident in WO<>Qcrest said, "I am disappointed that W oodcrest is being left out, but as long as cable is on campus I will be able to see the shows I want".

The starting package from Adelphia Cable includes all the basic cable channels along with two additional channel.s such as Home Box Office and Cinemax (Prism is two dollars extra), along with a remote control and free installation for $35 a month. If you just want basic cable with no additional channels it will cost $15.45 a month Frank Bressi, junior and a resident in house six, said, "Ifearcable may be detrimental to my academic life, but I will have to work extra hard with staying on the straight and narrow.

They cannot expect entertainers or celebrities on such short notice and those people may not always be the best or even good speakers, Schwarze said.

The graduates should be able to

"A commencement speaker should be indicative of what the college honors."

-Dr. Sharon Schwarze learn something from the speaker and be able to remember what was said, not simply who spoke, according to Schwarze.

"Choosing a commencement speaker is an institutional responsibility and students as well as administrators are part of the institution," Dean of Students Robert Bonfiglio, Ph.D., said.

"Stu1ents have been just as lax in thei4 interest in choosing a

commencement speaker as administration has been sluggish in approving one," Schwarze said.

The senior class will meet this week with the graduation committee and they will "gofrom there" according to Brad Millaway, senior class president. As of right now, they have no possibilities. . "I hope we're going to get support from administrators and seniors in choosing a speaker and planning graduation," Milla way said.

Millaway hopes to get input from seniors, possibly sending questionnaires to them asking if there is someone they would like to see.

Millaway would like to get a speaker who is "relevant and timely."

Senior class officers are given the responsibility of choosing possible speakers and are then faced with the frustrating and real possibility that the speaker that they want may not be available.

Callinanrunnin· a coursetowardNationals

by Denise Edwards Out of bed every morning Monday through Friday at 6:50 am to run and then out running again in the afternoon is an example of the dedication,detennination and love for the sport of running that this week's athlete of the week possesses.

Chris Callinan, junior and co-captain of the cross country team, has been leaving his mark as a leader in the Cabrini cross country program since his freshman year of 1988.

"He knows the sport," John Fasolka, freshman runner, said. "Cross country is the type of sport that not only requires physical ability but also a lot of mental preparation. He has the best of both and he's been teaching me a lot of these qualities," Fasolka said. ''Chris has made himself a better and more mature runner because he wants to be a better and more mature runner," 0 'Hora said.

To his coach and teammates Callinan's biggest strenghts lie in his knowledge of the sport and his smartness as a runner.

"The biggest determining factor in making someone a great runner is how they think," O'Hora said.

Its been O'Hora's experience that the stereo typical good runner is smart. Running is more of a mental game than anything.

Very often the brains come into knowing your self and your inner abilities.To O'Hora Callinan proves this case.

"Chris, because he is smart ,does excel in what he does out on the course. He has potential at being a candidate for Academic All-American,'' O'Hora said.

in the way he has trained this yearcompared to last. He's in better condition."

"I think it is something he realizes he's ,, good at," Albrecht said. "He knows he has a gift and pushes to use it to the fullest.' ' Callinan takes his position as co-captain • of the team very seriously.

"I help push everyone along," Callinan , said. "During practice I set a goal and see who follows me through practice.''

"He gives the youngerrunnersadviceon what to expect during particular races," Albrecht said.

Callinan believes his strength as a runner is in his abiliity to run the tougher courses well.

Lackof scholarships,experience Scoreboard won'tdim volleyball'scommitment Results

by Amanda Picher

Gerry Szabo brings 25 years of coaching experience to the women's volleyball team this season. Still, he feels this may not be enough to overcome some of the difficulties facing the team this year.

The tear;nhas been practicing for three weeks, and Szabo said he is very proud of its progress. Half of the players are new this year, and a lot of work is involved in integrating the new players with those returning. This, however, is not what Szabo is concerned about.

The other women's volleyball teams Cabrini plays all offer scholarships. Cabrini, however, offers none.

The problems, Szabo thinks, started about five years ago, when Cabrini decided to go NCAA Division III. Because of that move, the volleyball team plays other Division III teams. The difficulty with this is that other colleges in the division put more money into their sports programs. They are able to offer scholarships and better facilities to the players.

Currently, no woman on the team receives any financial aid for her athletic ability. Szabo would like to give something to those players with special talents, and said he wishes the school would offer scholarships to attract experienced volleyball players to Cabrini.

As fewer experienced players come to Cabrini, the school becomes less known for volleyball. As the school becomes less known for the sport, fewer experienced players want to come to Cabrini. According to Szabo, this is a cycle that becomes almost impossible to break.

Szabo's main goal is for the women to enjoy being on the team and that they do not belittle their accomplishments.

According ,to Szabo, the team's greatest strength is they enjoy playing and work hard to ao their best. Their weakness is a lack of exposure to the fundamentals of the game.

For many of the new players, this is the first time they have played volleyball with a team. Several returning players gained all their knowledge of the game through Szabo's coaching.

"He (Szabo) taught me everything I know about volleyball. Before I joined last year, I didn't know anything about the game,'' Jen McKee, junior and returning player said.

"We're a young, inexperienced team. We still have so much to learn,'' Kathy McLane, also a returning junior said.

In addition to learning the fundamental knowleclge, the team also has to adjust to working with the new players.

Carol Ann Gross, a returning senior and tri-captain, said, "Learning to play as a team takes effort. In volleyball, ev~ryone moves as a unit. This is definitely not an individual

Szabo also said that he would like to see the volleyball team get a little more respect and recognition than it does now. The players work hard, but still face empty bleachers at the home games.

"W~ don't get as much attention as, say, men's basketball, but that's always been a problem with the women's sports,'' Debbie Malveaux, returning senior and tri-captain, said.

McLane noted the team could not get a van to take them to the recent tournament at Haverford. "We had to take the regular shuttle, then call to be picked up when we finished."

Despite these difficulties, Szabo and the athletes are hoping for.a satisfying, competitive, season this year.

"I don't wantto speculate, but if we have to continue to operate at 70 percent of our budget, somewhere in the future some tough decisions concerning our department's spending will have to made."

However, for now the watch seems to have had little effect on how the college departments are going about their business.

As various Cabrini men and women· athletic teams prepare for the upcoming fall schedule, the entire athletic department finds itself entering the fall season at less than 100 percent of its original operating budget.

To be more precise, the athletic department is currently working at 70 percent ofits original operating budget for the current fiscal year.
