Time and money. These are two concerns that prevent adult students from returning to college. Cabrini has developed a program that gives credit for learning through work experience to help assuage these concerns. The name of the program is Assessment of Prior Learning(APL). "We awardcredit for learning that results from work experience," Lori Kahn, assessment of prior learning coordinator, said. According to Kahn, the program will help facilitate and stimulate adults to return to college. "We are wilJing to recognize what you already know,'' she said, '' and then put you in advanced classes." This will allow students to receive credit for lower-division classes and the concentrate on upper-level classes. Also, students who receive credit through the program only pay one-third the amount of a regular course. According to a public relations pamphlet, "If you can demonstrate that your knowledge is comparable to the learning that takes place in our classrooms, Cabrini will award college credit.'' According to Kahn, students who are interested in the program put together a portfolio. The student works closely with Kahn, who is the mediator between professor and student. Together, Kahn and the student pick out courses that resemble and are compatible with the knowledge they have acquired. They gear the portfolio towards meeting the requirements set by the professor in the class syllabus.
For instance, if a student has worked as a store manager, he would gear his portfolio towards the syllabus of Bus. 120 (Principles of Management). The professor of Bus. 120 will review the portfolio and decide whether the student has learned enough to pass the class, using the criteria and guidelines of the course syllabus. If so, the student will receive the credit but no letter grade. These credits, like transfer credits, will not affect the student's cumulative average. If a student is denied credit there is no academic penalty. According to Kahn, academic validity is in no way infringed upon because, "the award of credit remains in the hands of the professor.' ' Kahn also said that dialogue between student and professor is encouraged. Other colleges have the APL program but Cabrini specializes in it. "I feel we a doing a disservice to studeots if we don't provide these options," Kahn said. "It is part of a quality adult education.'' According to Kahn, students, especially adults, returning to college used to attend the one that was closest to their home but now they shop around. "Students choose us because of the APL program,'' Kahn said. "I purposely came to Cabrini because of the program,'· said Joanne Packtor, who received 15 credits through APL and is awaiting the decision on three more. "It is nice to know that what I have learned and accomplished is important.'' Kahn also said that experience other than more CREDIT on 4
Cafeteria responds· to criticism by Matt Hodlofski
Students who live on campus miss many luxuries of home. The most convenient one is home cooked meals. Students frequently complain a~ut the cafeteria food, although 'the staff thinks their service is sufficient. Recently the dishwasher was broken for a week and a half, and the cafeteria used Styrofoam plates and cups along with the utensils. The dishwasher's dry rinse booster boiler was cracked and because of that, the rins~g mode wasn't working. Students however claim that they were given dirty dishes and glasses for the day preceeding the Styrofoam solution. According to the cafeteria, Styrofoam was used because at the
time it was the only resort. ''The two main reasons we used it over anything else was that Styrofoam is biodegradable and recyclable," Dee Cochran, food service direc-
"Our company is authorized to buy from certain , purveyors, who must meet certain specifications," - Dee Cochran, food service director tor, said. ''You could see the film at the bottom of the glasses and there was remnants of food on the uten-
sils," one disgruntled student, who requested her name be withheld, said. The company that provides Cabrini with food is Seilers. According to Cochran, Seilers has been here about ten years. ''Everything is specified a USDA Grade A product," Cochran said. ''Our company is authorized to buy from certain purveyors, who must meet certain specifications,'' Cochran added. "If there is a comment to be said, let it be said in an adult manner," Cochran said. Not all of the students are as perturbed, however. "Sometimes

Continuing educati9n's clout on campus
Soldiersin the sand
When the sun goes down, the campusrevolves around anotherworld. Parkinglots, classroomsandhallwaysare filled to new capacities as the number of continuing education students enrolled reaches 443. The orientationof the programis innovative, andthere's the possibility that our traditional undergraduate emphasis will be left behind in the dust. Perhaps it's the undergraduates own insecurities or jealousies that are underlyingthese fears of being overshadowed. Thevitalitycontinuingeducationstudentsbringto classes, and the money that replenishes the business office would be sorely missed if the presence of this new brand of students was not as strong. As the educational roles began to change in the '80s, more adults realized in very real terms (such as job security, satisfaction and advancement), the important function education and a college degree had. The continuing education student is now picking up the slack for the decline in enrollment of qualified undergraduates. Aggressive efforts have been made to find a niche in the Cabrini community for those considered to be the more serious students. Individual attention, specific courses geared towards the transition a continuing educati9n student faces, and the newly-developed assessment for prior learning program are all support services directed towards facilitating the success of these students. Undergraduates have comparable services offered to them, _including success seminars and the options to gain credit for advanced placement courses, but they are not embraced with the same intensity, and their value is not as esteemed. With the race for quality undergraduates, however, we should not neglect spending some extra time and energy dedicated to the creative development of the undergraduate program.

College, the place to dwell on the negative. "I have a test tomorrow." "I nearly failed my exam.'• ''The cafeteria food sucks." "I have so much work to do." As I sit here typing at the computer I think, "I have a viewpoint to write, a paper to rewrite, 100 pages of a book to read, and a presentation to prepare for." What does it all mean? Is college the best four years of our lives? This is what the plus thirty-somethings tell us? How many times are we asked, "Is the glass half empty or half full?'' And how many times will we respond, "Half empty?" We tend to always look at the negative aspects of Life. We never stop "to smell the roses." I hate cliches because they are over simplifications of life. However, they are the only things we have to refocus our energies on the positive aspects of life. The great writer, Charles Dickens, wrote, ''it was the best of times; it was the worst of times." r I contend that these are "the best of times." However at the same time, they can be "worstoftimes" if we don't take those few extra moments a day and recognize all FOR Nt SOVIET CRACl(l)OWN Tl/( IRAQIINV4S10N ON UTl·M\NIA, \.J£. those positive aspects of our lives.

I had laundry to wash, books to read, and appointments to keep. However, as I waited in my Jeep with my 80 cents ready for tolls, my eyes wandered to the sky. I immediately focused on a dark object in the sky. I began to imagine I was walking through the sand with a hot sun beating down on me. No, I was not daydreaming about the FORTUE. CHIN£.sf.

the inhalation of poisonous gas, or even a single bullet fired from an Iraqi Americanmade rifle? I never pictured it, until that day waiting to pay my toll in a car powered by gasoline. Gasoline imported from that giant sand pile that covers the black gold. I begin to reconsider as I advance in the toll line. Maybe it isn't so bad to write that paper or study for that midterm exam? Maybe these are the best years of my life? It has got to be easier than wondering where that next drink of water will come from ittthe desert, or even wondering when I will see my friends and family, or ifl will ever see them again? This week's issue of Time magazine reads, "Gloom over the· Gulf." It is a sobering thought that for the sake of oil, people could die -- people my age, men and women like me, my friends, and even me. Oil has the potentialto make the "best of times'• the ''worst of times.'' All it takes is orie miscalucation, one mistake to change the fragile dream that each and everyone of us has grown t~ct. I pay my toll and slowly yield onto the offramp. Now I am almost anxious to have fun and write that paper, read that book, wash that laundry, and attend that appointment. Two hours pass and my brief visit home comes to a conclusion. Not much was accomplished for the four gallons of black gold I used. I enter the on ramp of the turnpike and look to the sky, the place of my awakening. What was it about the sky that brought me to the realization? The sky I saw on my journey home was no longer filled with my childhood experience of harmless C-130's, instead three fighter planes had circled above me, awaiting the go signal. Maybe for war, maybe just to land like my childhood C- l 30's at the Willow Grove Naval Air Station. I don't know the technical name for these planes, but even I, as the young child playing in my sand pile could recognize that these were not instruments of peace-- these were weapons of war. They were that one symbol of potential calamity which could bring to a conclusion my "best of times." I grab my toll ticket, and approached the rush hour traffic. Drivers speed and weave in and out oftraffic because they've got to put dinner on the table, take their child to soccer practice, or prepare for tomorrow's presentation. I merge with my fellow drivers, accelerate, and pass those who are just going too slow. Let's face it, I've got a paper to write, an exam to study for, and a meeting to attend. I don't have time for this. Those fighters became a revelation of the past. I am only interested in fighting through one more college obstacle. It is always easy to see these days as "the worst of times." But if you just think about; think aboutthe fun and recognize the potential situation which could easily create "the worst of times," I think that even for a fleeting second we could all appreciate the "best of times" we are having. Try to take the time and to stop and smell the roses, because I would rather smell roses then the smell gunpowder. I would rather listen to the sounds of nature then the sounds of gunfire. Take time to see the beautiful world in which we live; it is better than seeing fire and destruction. Dickens wrote in his Tale of Two Cities, "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times." It's the' 'worst of times," when one is so busy to recognize that he just missed the ''best of times.''

The term is now first-year student. An article in The Chronicle of Higher Education said, ''The word excludes women.'' However, Cabrini is not changing . terms be~ause freshman is sexist. Dean of Students Robert Bonfiglio said the word was "antiquated.'' "It's just not a nice word,'' said Ana Hazelrigg, resident manager of Woodcrest. According to Bonifiglio, as of Oct. 18, the student services staff agreed to use the term first-year student as much as possible instead of freshman. Student services is open to feedback this year; however, for the class of 1995, first year student will be implemented in all office publications. The Loquitur editorial board will have to decide what term to use.

"It's more mature. I feel like I;m in high school,'' Beltz first-year student, said. "I would try to use the name first-year student.'' "It's a good step,'' Toni Ann Bini, first-year student, said. ''Freshman is degrading to everyone." Most current freshman did not see the need to change terms. "I don't think there is anything wrong with it," Priscilla Fuentes, firstyear student, said.

by Chris Pesotski Six windows, valued at as much as $1,000, were smashed in the dean of students office during a ''mischief night'' vandalism spree. According to staff members, the attack on Dr. Robert Bonfiglio 's office, which occurred about 2 a.m. Oct. 31, may have been a retaliation for a letter he sent warning students that penalties for students caught vandalizing college property would be "swift and severe.'' "I haven't read the letter, if people were trying to retaliate, that's very childish," Sr. Bernadette Anello, director of campus ministry, said. Jennifer Marks-Gold described the scene when she arrived at work Wednesday morning to discover the damage. ' 'There was glass everywhere,' ' MarksGold said.

who reported the incident said she only heard breaking glass. "I didn't see anyone," the student said. "Ijust heard the noise and called security.'' According to the security report filed, no entry was gained to the office by the vandals. According to Michael Caranfa, chief pnysical plant officer, the glass was ordered immediately following clean up of the debris, and should be installed by week's end. Ana Hazelrigg, head resident of Woodcrest Hall, reported that a window was broken in that building. "That was really ,the extent of the problem, except for the usual eggs and stuff,'' Hazelrigg said. Caranfa reported a more threatening problem. "Someone, thinking they were turning on a fire hydrant, actually shut off the sprinkler protection system for the mansion.'' In doing so, the vandals also broke the valve for the system. At 2:30 a.m., Radnor police were notified to break up a disturbance involving Cabrini and Eastern College students.

Collins:team motivatoron and off field by Aman~a Picher
I
It was very difficult for field hockey coach Mimi Greenwood to decide on one player for athlete of the week. She did, however, and that player is goalkeeper Bridget Collins., senior. ;,I value my two other seniors, Kelly Boyer and Michelle Ballinghoff," Greenwood said. Collins, however, had no replacement for her position and as a result, played all game,every game this season. Greenwood also added that Collins is responsible for many saves this year. Collins did not play field hockey in high school. She transferred to Cabrini from St. Francis College in Loretto when she was a sophomore. She started playing field hockey that same year. Her first position was halfback. She never saw herself as a goalie until her junior year. The team'sgoaliequitsuddenly that year, so Collins took her place in the next game. There were no scores by the opposing team that game, and since then, it was accepted that Collins was the new goalie. It is the only position she has played ever since. As a goalie, Collins thinks one of her duties is to keep control on
the field. She also believes that another one of her responsibilities is to keep the team awjlfe of what is happening on fhe field .. Krista Palmisano, juniqr, who plays link, agrees that Collins carries out her beliefs. ''I think she is the most dedicated player on the team,'' Palmissano said. '' She always motivates us, especially when we're down.'' Collins' support of the team is obvious in the way she cheers and encourages everyone on the team during games. She reinforces her support during halftime, when the team is together. Christine Costigan, sophomore, who plays right wing, believes Collins is very deserving of athlete of the week. She describes Collins as a strong team leader who supports her teammates and keeps their heads up. Costigan added that Collins plays very well and does a great job as goalie. "She's my friend," Costigan said. "I look up to her. She's helped me a lot, both on and off the field." Another teammate, Veronica O'Hora, a sophomore who plays sweeper, shares Costigan's view.
O'Hora also calls Collins a great leader who has kept the team together and brought them up when things were not going well. She is glad Collins stuck with the goalie position, even when things were rough. As for Collins herself, she was very honored when Coach Greenwood selected her for athlete of the week. She feels lucky because she believes a lot of other people were just as deserving, and only a few people can be chosen. Collins believes that many times, goalies get either all the recognition or all the blame. But, she stresses the team aspectof the gll!11e. "The team works hard, and I work hard with them,'' Collins said.

athletic department, but the athletic department doesn't think they can give us the funds this year," Tucci said. In response to these_speculations, Dzik said, "I can't tell you. I haven't sat down with anyone from the club, so I don't have a budget. I would like to think we'll be able to support them in the way we did last year.'' Dzik said that the athletic department usually provides the entrance fee to the league,
officials for home games, and authorizes the use of the van for away games as much as possible. As for varsity status sometime in the future, Bonfiglio sounded optimistic. "I hope once we are past our current budget situation, we can reconsider the establishment of men's intercollegiate volleyball at Cabrini,'' Bonfiglio said.

Soccer captures ESAC title by Carlo Iacono and Matt McGeehan Overcoming a season of internal and external adversity, the men's soccer team sprung to a 1990 ESAC championship. Anchored by Glen Jaskelewicz's three goals, the Cavaliers posted a 3-2 victory at Salisbury State on Oct. 27 to seal the title. ''To win that game is the best feeling in the world," senior co-captian Steve Buividas said. 'fhe win gave the Cavaliers a 12-6 overall mark with a 5-1 ESAC tally. The ESAC title does not guarantee the team a birtP in the NCAA Division III tournament since the league doesn't receive an automatic berth. One game at Stockton State on Oct. 31 remained for the team. Junior co-captian Bill DiRita said, "It is obvious that we have a lot of strong players
coming back. Our goal was to win the ESAC championship and now that we acheived that we will be ready to defend it next year.''
"To win that game is the best feeling in the world,'~ -Senior co-captian Steve Buividas
Junior Joe Cavaliere said, "Wehavea lot inore experience team this year and I felt that we were the team to beat." The young team played a difficult non-
league scpedule and overcame injuries and team discipline problems to land on top. Jaskelewicz's goals came via a pentaly kick, a headbob with the assist going to freshmanBrendan Ryan, and the game winnner came on a perfect feed from sophomore Matt Capone. The hat trick provided Jaskelewicz with 18 goals for the season and his record-setting career mark stands at 35. Freshman goalkeeper Clark Zimmerman stifled Salisbury by making eight saves. A Oct. 24 2-1 victory over Allentown Col'!'egeset up the championship game. So.phomore Mike "Pickle" Conner posted the first mark with an assist to Buividas. Jaskelwicz posted the game winner with two minutes remaining in overtime. The Cavaliers last title came in 1987 when they won the ESAC Northern division.

The volleyball club, after receiving a $6,000 grant from the United States Volleyball Association to upgrade the club to a team, was denied varsity status by the college. According· to Dr. Robert.Bonfiglio, dean of students, the main reason for the college's denial of varsity status to the volleyball club was money. Due to current budget situation, the college was forced to review its. ability to expand the athletic program, Bonfiglio said. Chris Thompson, sophomore, said that Cabrini was one of only three teams in the country to receive such a grant. The only stipulation attached to the grant was that the team remain in the league for three years. The grant would cover operating costs for the first year, and the school would pay for the other two, Thompson said. According to John Dzik, athletic direc'ror, the grant was categorized as seed money and by taking it, the team had to assure the U.S.V.B.A. that they would be a sponsor for three years. •'We figured it would cost $4500 to start, $5-5500, for the second year, and $6-7000 for the third year. That's a total package in excess of $15,000, and we decided that we didn't have sufficient money in our operating budget," Dzik said. Dzik confirmed that the college was one of only a few schools to receive a grant and that the school had returned the grant money

Walker paces Lady Cavs to PACC tennis title by LorraineMarie Lill This year's women's tennis team ended their season on Saturday, Oct. 26 at the 2nd Annual Philadelphia Area Catholic Colleges Invitational (PACC), played here at Cabrini. The invitational was designed to be post season play for a number of local colleges that are basically the same size as Cabrini. The tournament was sponsored by Wayne Sporting Goods and Prints Sporting Goods. These sponsors help out by either giving discounts on trophies or donating them. They also help out with shirts and sweat bands which are given to the players. Every player gets some-
thing. This year's tournament only had four colleges competing in it because of a conflict with the National Association of lntercollegiant Athletics (NAIA). Several teams were eliminated because the NAIA had their district championships this weekend. The colleges that participated this year were Immaculata, Rosemont, Chestnut Hill and Cabrini. There are no conference championships or season team records on the line during this tournament; Rather, it is meant to be good, competitive fun. Maryanne Walker, freshman, went (3-0) to win the PACC
championship. Walker defeated Valerie Nu yen from Chestnut Hill (6-4, 6-4), then went into the semifinals and defeated Danielle Rickards from Immaculata (6-4, 6-2). Walker's final match was against Doreen Donato from Rosemont college. She won the championship by defeating Donato (6-4, 62). "I feel really good now. I'm really tired, but it was a good match and a good couple of matches," Walker said. Susie Detrick, junior, co-captain, became the consolation winner of the PACC tournament by defeating Tara Sarg of Rosemont college (6-1, 2-6, 6-3). Detrick lost in the second round of the PACC to
the eventual runner up Donato (2-6, 6-4, 6-3). In the consolation round Detrick defeated Chris Ann Dowd of Immaculata (6-0, 6-2) and Carrie San Phillips of Rosemont (6-0, 61). Detrick then defeated Sarg, becoming the PACC's consolation winner. "I feel tired, exhausted and happy. I was thinking, I better beat her:" Detrick said. The players in the PACC tournament for Cabrini were the top four players on the team. Maryanne Walker, Susie Detrick, Erin McCarte, who could not make the tournament, and Joelle Spagnola. To win the tournament, Cabrini had to defeat Rosemont in both
finals with Walker in singles and Detrick in consolation. ''Cabrini went into the finals . trailing Rosemont (11.5-9) and played Rosemont in both finals. We had to win both and we did,'' Reggie Day, coach, said. Cabrini finished first with a total of 13 points. Rosemont finished second with 11.5, Immaculata finished third with 8 and Chestnut Hill finished fourth with 2.5 points. "Maryanne's win put us in the lead by 1/2 point. The final outcome rested on Susie's match. If she wins, we wirr. If she loses, we lose by 1/2. As Susie usually does, she came through with a win," Day said.
