Students express concern over verbal abuse policy byKelly Adams co-news editor In the United States of America, it is now illegal for public institutions to ban speech that is inflammatory because of its racist, sexist, or otherwise bigoted content. This ruling was handed down in June of this year because the First Amendment prevents the government from "silencing speech based on its content," as stated in the Court's decision. This case reached the Supreme Court after a white teen-ager, accused of bu ming a cross on the front lawn of the lone black family in a mostly white neighborhood, challenged the local hate-speech law. The teen-ager argued that the law violated his right to free speech. The Minnesota State Supreme Court upheld the ordinance. The supreme Court of the United States did not. What does this mean to Cabrini College? President Antoinette Iadarola said. "This college will not tolerate harassment or verbal abuse as it relates to racist, sexist or class issues.According to a July I study in the Chronicle of Higher Education, private colleges and universities, such as Cabrini, have more authority to monitor speech at their cam-

puses, so the decision should have little effect on their speech codes. According to Robert Bonfiglio, vice president of student services, the ruling will not change anything at Cabrini in the immediate future. Bonfiglio said that the present verbal abuse policy, which mandates expulsion only after four documented offenses, was.written by students, for students. "This is the policy students wanted to have," Bonfiglio said. Bonfiglio said that if students want to amend the present policy that they should pursue it through Student Government Association. Bonfiglio spoke of the college's mission. Bonfiglio said, "Would Mother Cabrini want us to have a policy that says it's OK to say hateful and punishing things to other people with no consequence?". Senior Jeri Rayon also spoke of the college's mission. Rayon said, "I don't know if this school will ever fulfill its mission if students aren't willing to accept cultural diversity." Rayon expressed dissatisfaction with the Supreme Court·s ruling m; ---Wetl as with-ei!biiru•s-present verbal abuse policy. "Community service should not be a punishment. it should be a given." Junior Priscilla Fuentes said shl" values free speech but was saddened

by the Supreme Court's ruling "It's a shame that people can abuse it ... when they want to insult or abuse someoneelse." LikeRayon,Fuentes said that offenders should be held accountable for their conduct, but Fuentes did not know exactly what those consequences should be. Resident Director Scott Dorsey, adviser to the Ethnic Student Association (ESA) - formerly the Black Student alliance - said that he was not surprised by the Supreme Court's ruling. Dorsey said that he was concerned about the Civil Rights movement "backlash" and fears that the work of the movement will be undone. Dorsey said he felt that the present verbal abuse policy should be more stringent,with fewer verbalwarnings. Dorsey, like Rayon and Fuentes, was the target of racial slurs while at Cabrini. Dorsey, Rayon and Iadarola all encouraged education as a means of preventing such incidents in Cabrini's future. Dorsey said that the ESA wiUmeet every Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. in the Student Services Conference Room

Undercover investigation possible on campus by Kimberly M. Haban editor-in-chief The Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement (LCB) has sent a letter to Dr. Robert Bonfiglio, vice president of student affairs stating that it is their priority to enforce the underage drinking laws in Pennsylvania. The letter stated the bureau is now undertaking a new program in the interdiction of alcohol abuse by minors on and near college and university campuses throughout Pennsylvania. Requests were made of the administration and security force in assisting the bureau with this program which the letter stated was to be "quite in depth and extensive." Bonfiglio said he has not been notified of any officers on campus, but he said Director of Security Richard Kralle was notified by a local law enforcement officer. Kralle said he was not contacted by anyone.

Bonfiglio said "We did not contact the LCB. Wedidnotaskthemtocomehere. We are doing a reasonable job controlling underage drinking." Neither the bureau or Radnor police are required to let someone know they are coming on campus. According to Kralle an undercover officer could be on campus at anytime without anyone knowing it. A reliable source said Delaware County is being targeted by the LCB to arrest underage drinkers. According to this source if there was an undercover officer on campus this may be their operating procedure. If the officer was a male he would most likely become friendly with a female who knew a lot about the school and about what events were taking place on and around campus. Once this friendship is established the

agent would be able to become friendly with the women's friends and would have easy access to parties or events happening on or off campus. However, the agent may not arrest people immediately. The source said the LCB may not want to arrest just five people at a small party. According to the source they may wait for the big kill where they could arrest 20 underage drinkers. Twenty arrests are 20 different incidents under the agents' belts which makes their statistics look good the source said. Considering it is an election year it is also a budget year. The source said that means, the better the LCB 's statistics are the better their chance of getting a bigger budget. Also, according to the source, if the LCB said they were going to crack down Radnor police will also crack down on

underage drinking. Local police do not want the LCB to catch something they do not because that makes their department look like they are doing a poor job. If an undercover agent does bust a party three things could happen to the underage drinker. If the person is under 18 years old his or her parents would be notified and the person would receive a citation, a fine and lose their drivers license for three months. In the case that the underager is over 18 years old he or she could get arrested, brought into the police station, photographed, given a citation and a fine and have their license suspended for three months. If the officer does not opt for taking people to the station he could write up citations at the scene. Those offenders would still receive a fine and lose their license for three months.

Distinguish between hate and crime

Much confusion centers around the theory of a "hate crime." Is such a concept in accordance with our constitutional rights? Can the law really tell a deanna person what he/she can and cannot say? d'alfonso By definition a hate crime is "speech that is inflammatory because of racist, co-sports sexist or otherwise bigoted content." The primary argument against the idea of a hate crime focuses on First editor Amendment rights. The First Amendment grants us the right to say and feel whatever we want, regardless of how ignorant our comments sound. We have a duty, however, to use this right in a responsible way and to be careful not to Growing up is something that I think I have abuse it. wanted to avoid doing for a while.Every once in True, name-calling is not a crime. a while, however, that adult who is a part of me Slanders become crimes, however, when they are demonstrated in the fonn just all of a sudden happens into my life. of vandalism or harassment.

l NARC, I am not the NARC, and I have no intentionofever being a NARC. I know nothing about what a NARC does, what its purpose would be, or its modus operandi. But yet, to many people on campus, they believed it. I was labeled. Hearing about this from people shocked me. I felt many mixed emotions,ranging from anger to laughter. I did not know what I had done that caused people to think such a thing. I was actually scared. People have heard about narcs that have been attcked because others were afraid of gettingcaught. That first week here was very confusing. I found it hard to meet people. I received strange looks from people. The label was assumed because there were no cold, hard facts. Nobody knew me, or where I came from, except a select few people. How much different was my situation from prejudice? Because I seemed "different" for some reason. I was labeled. Nigger. Spic. Jew. Gook. Retard. Cripple.

NARC. Thewordembodiessomethingmysterious, something quite suspicious. Many students at Cabrini believe there is a narc on campus. This has created a fear and paranoia that I did not expect to find. I have a personal Stakein this,for I was accusedof beingthe narc by a great deal of people. It wasn't just the word "NARC" that bothered me. It was a label. . I transferred as a junior. I graduated from high school,took a year off and spent three years at community college in Bucks County. I am also 22 yearsold. For some reason,this qualified me to be a possiblechoice for being the NARC. The plain simple truth was that I was not the

step there is someone there to hold me back. My friends are afraid of what might happen. Some of them just seem threatened by commitment to anything including school. work, or even each other. They have a really funny way of showing it too. Learning to tune out their opinions and thinking for myself is a part of growing up that I need to learn. My friends have so many conflictingopinions on how they think I should act and who they think I should hang out with, thatiamusuallytryingsohardtomakeeveryone happy I wind up cheating myself. I'll learn. All of many experiences in growing up. I sat on the beach a long time that day and it felt good to ponder my thoughts andget into a fresh frame of mind for the upcomingsemester. I used to be afraid of growing up. I thought that I was going to have to learn to stay inside of the lines. I found out just recently that changing yourselfto please others is a sign of immaturity. There is no way I am ever going to stay in the lines again because that is not my style. I finally did get a job this summer (actually four) and took.on some "adult responsibility." I am still working four jobs, and time management still is.not one of my strong points, I don'tthink it ev'er~be. I view accepting your limitations as a sign of growing up. I am very defined about the things that I want out of the semester:to get involvedin everything that will help me get a greatjob when I finally graduate and become this wonderful adult everyone keeps talking about. From what I can gather from several different sources, "it is all a learningexperienceand it does get easier." That is what I am hanging around waiting for... the part where it gets easier. . Well, I am headed to the beach this weekend to look for some new answers andI hope I find them. I'm sure I will because the ocean is so much like life. It is cool and calm somedays and then others stormy with waves crashing until you feel likeyou are going down for the lasttime. But there is always a lifeguardto pull you out, I am convinced. Sort of.

Whore. Those are just labels too. The words themselveshave a power. It stirs up the worst in people. One need only look at the fate of six millionJews during World War II. Or the racial prejudicethat has existed in America ever since it was founded. Some people believe it will never change, that the nature of man dictates us to see people under labels. I find that to be a cop-out. All we have to do is take the time to look outside of ourselves and see people for who and whatthey really are. We all have a responsibility to help make this world a better place. As long as labels get in the way we cannot move towards

peace. It is time to put an end to this ugly hatred that surroundsus, and it all startsrightwhere you live. Don't assume somethingabout peopleunless you truly know them. Don't believe everything you hear. Look beyond the surface, and try to look inside. Labels have affected us all. I am Kevin Ohlandt and that's all that really matters.

Choosing to exercise the right to vote or third in a series not to vote by Kelly Adams co-news editor "The most dangerous vote in America is one that is not cast." This phrase dates back over a century, but does the Cabrini community feel thf s way? The majority of the people interviewed were registered to vote in this election. Junior Steve Czech attributes the widespread registration to the recent media coverage and air time devoted to the subject. Czech specifically spoke of the coverage on MTV, which hosted an open forum with Democratic candidate Bill Clinton. Czech, who registered in August, said, "I never thought about how important it was." Senior Karen Pappas credited the registration turnout to outside agencies getting involved in registering people. Pappas said that she registered while at her local video store where the League of Women Voters were registering people. "It took two seconds - it was easy," Pappas said. Brian Wheeler, junior, said he registered when he turned 18 as part of a high school religion class requirement. Wheeler said that "parental influence" was why he initially registered as a Democrat. Wheeler said he is now familiar with and agrees with the party platform. Dr. Margaret M. McGuinness, associate professor ofreligion, said that she considered requiring her

"The Republicans are slow to bring about change and the Democrats want to bring about change too fast," Albert said. "Neither way is good for society." Seiler's employee Ben Dunn said that he votes to get involved in community issues. Sophomore Lisa Hedtke said that she registered so she could have a voice in government. Hedtke, a Democrat, was an-

Junior Gary Fisher is not registered to vote either. Fisher said that voting just was not important to him. "I have nothing to complain about," Fisher said. Fisher plans to register eventually. Pam Lemay, senior, said that she will not be voting in the election either. "It was inconvenient," Lemay said, citing that the voter registration office was not open late during the week and was closed on weekends. Lemay said that she was un-

aware that registration forms gered by the recent re-entrance of H. Ross Perot into the election. "He's a spoiler," Hedtke said. Hedtke said she felt that Perot and most government officials were corrupt. Tiffanie Westley, sophomore, also a Democrat, agreed with hedtke. "Perot is going to take away votes where they are needed," Westley said. It is widely speculated that Perot's re-entrance into the election will hinder Clinton's campaign. Like many of her peers, junior Michelle Sheets registered when she was 18 because "everybody else was doing it." Kim Keck, senior, however, will not be voting in this election.

were available at places like liquor stores. Lemay said that she also plans to register for the next election. Teresa DiCampli, junior, thinks thatthe registration process should be easier. DiCampli suggested linking voter registration with getting a driver's license. President Bush recently vetoed a similar procedure. Senior Tom Foran, a New Jersey resident, will be voting in the election via absentee ballot. Foran is a solid Republican and will be voting because, "Bush is the best," Foran said. John Latvenas, senior will also be voting by absentee ballot and said that he has done so the entire time he has been at Cabrini. Latvenas, a Democrat, said he initially registered Republican. but switched parties in order to support a candidate he believed in. When asked why he would be voting, Latvenas said, "It's choose or loose." Campus security guard Jim Mitchell agreed with Latvenas. "People die to vote, " Mitchell said. "Here, we take it for granted."

a r1n1a resses Columbus controversy by Kevin Ohlamlt copy editor Five hundred years ago, Christopher Columbus came to America looking for spices and a route to China. What he found was a land filled with natives. But was Columbus the first to sail to the Western Hemisphere from a distant shore? And what is the controversy over Columbus? Many people do not think he was the first to discover America. Students are taught from elementary school to college about the discovery of America. Dr. Jolyon Girard,academic chairperson of history and political science said "High school teachers teach it, but the students may not be listening." Sheila Brady and Tina Strobel, both first-year students stated that Columbus discovered America because "that's what we were told." Gerry Dunleavy ,junior, said "Sure, cause a big history book told me so." Larry Foster, first-year student said he believes the opposite. "Columbus was in the West Indies. Leif Erikson was the first on continental America,"

arts & entertainment by Douglas Eppler

staff writer To anyone who ever taunted me for missing the Rolling Stones Steel Wheels tour, I have three words for you: Ha, Ha, Ha! Not only did I see the concert, but I saw it in Turin, Italy, East Berlin, and London's Wembley Stadium. You laugh, but to anyone who has seen the Rolling Stones at the Max at the Franklin Institute's Tuttleman Omni verse Theater, that is exactly what it felt like. The sights, the sounds, and the feeling of the show transport even the most skeptical of concert-goers. Shot over five nights in July and August of the 1990 tour, the IMAX adventure captures the Stones in Europe and their homeland and blend them flawlessly into 90 minutes of pure ecstasy. "Mick was right in my face," said junior Deanna D' Alfonso. "It was just like being at the concert. It felt like you were floating over the crowd. And the sound was excellent!" Jennifer Marks-Gold, directorof student activities, also attended the college preview on Oct. I and agreed withD'Alfonso. "Yougetsoclose you get to see Mick Jagger's nose hairs. That theater is the wave of the future." How does this futuristic theater work? IMAXuses a revolutionary camera and projector that advances film horizontally instead of the conventional method of vertical film advancement. IMAX projects an image ten times larger than standard 35mm film and three times larger than 70 mm film. The name IMAX stems from "maximum image." IMAX produces the largest image in motion picture history. Loaded with this unconventional film, the "Rolling Loop" projector creates images of extraordinary clarity and projects them onto the four-story, giant wraparound screen. The key to IMAX's stunning affect is its use of the viewer's peripheral vision. "The difference between watching IMAX and regular films is at the neurological level," explains IMAX co-founder and seniorvicepresident Roman Kroitor, who served as location director. "Because so much of your retina is

It's no more complicated than that." Senior Christina Rudden said that she is thrilled about the concept behind the show. "I think it is neat that they did it with a band," Rudden said. Junior Katherine Ross said she, too, felt it was an incredible experience. "I felt like I was in the front row." "You felt like you were on stage with them and in the crowd," firstyear student Stephanie Bieg said. "I have never seen anything like it in my life. You actually saw what was going on behind the scenes. It was better than being at the concert. You 're in the front row with no waiting, pushing, or shoving," Beig said. IMAX's stunning visual affects are matched only by the incredible

"surround-sound" audio system. Using 56 speakers, the system surrounds the audience and puts out over 20,000 watts of power. Unlike an actual concert, the Stones at the MAX delivers crystal clear sound. Every harmony from the three-member back-up group rings clearly as Keith Richards' hypnotic six-string mesmerizes the gasping crowd. Jagger and company deliver a spectacular performance. Theimmortal grin of Charlie Watts and lavish wardrobe of Mick Jagger come to life in vibrant, living color. The show features 15 classic Stones masterpieces including "Start Me Up," "Paint It Black," "Ruby Tuesday," and the encore, "Satisfaction."

law required airport collision lights on the highest points, the Stones light up the skies of Europe. Speaking of light shows, do not miss the all-new U2 laser show in the Fels Planetarium. The Oct. 1 premiere thrilled over 300 students from colleges throughout the Philadelphia area. Produced by the Seattle-based company Laser Fantasy, the U2 show is the latest creation by the team that produced laser shows highlighting bands like Led Zeppelin, Genesis, Guns and Roses, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, Yes, and their most popular laser band, Depeche Mode. Scott Huggins, an employee of Laser Fantasy, programmed various parts of the show. During the Franklin Institute's showing, Huggins randomly altered colors and shapes where the computer program allowed. Much of the programming involves laser animation. For such segments, desired images were traced on a digitizing tablet and imputed into the computer as a series of "connectthe-dot" pictures. These dots were connected by the laser beams. Huggins, who has been with the laser company for three years, said the show's production began about five months ago. He added that an additional laser scanner will ·be added to the set of five currently used in the planetarium and will project images in the space over the heads of the audience which will soon be covered in the smoke of the soon-to-arrive smoke machine. When asked if he ever grows bored with the show, Huggins responded that "I have to do the same show over and over again ... but it's hard to get bored." The Stones at the Max will run at the Institute through Dec.19. The show costs $15 or $12.50 with the college pass, a new discount pass that reduces admission charges to events throughout the Franklin Institute. The pass costs $ 10. The U2 laser show runs indefinitely and costs $7 or $2.50 with the college pass. For information, call the Franklin Institute at 215-448-1208.

Studentshurlconcernsat Open Forum by Megan Flanigan

co-nei,vseditor No major problems were solved, but President Antoinette Iadarola said:'You've got me here." Iadarola said she wanted the students to know she was available to discuss anything that they wanted to talk about. · She wanted to listen and do what she could to improve certain situations and issues. Students presented problems and issues ranging from the parietal policy to parking in the campus community at the first general open forum on Oct.6. The open forum was sponsored by the Student Government Association(SGA).

The first issue raised was the. parietal policy. Students wanted to know what was happening with the 24-hourparietals policy. Kimberly Marshall is thepresident of SGA. According to Marshall, There are still some things that need to be worked out. Robert Bonfiglio, vice-president for student affairs said,"lt is in a fact finding stage." Iadarola said she wants to see more research done on the parietal policy. "My decisions are being made on how it will enhance the college and students." The policy is expected to be ready by the December board of Trustees meeting. Students questioned Iadarola on whether or not she was planning

anything special for the seniors this year. Iadarola said,"You should be working on these issues for the committees with Jennifer Marks-Gold." Jennifer Marks-Gold is the director of student activities. Iadarola addressed the question about the play,"Sexual Perversity in Chicago," which sparked controversy about the language. According to Iadarola, the play is being performed, along with educational programs about the play held in the dormitories. In regard to the lack of a fulltime faculty member for the Spanish department, which decreases the number of students enrolled in the department as majors, Iadarola said,"You have to understand and appreciate that a lot of colleges

have this problem." According to Iadarola, it is difficult to employ somebody for only a few students majoring in the department. Another issue raised was the problem of parking. Students expressed concern about not having enough parking spaces. "Isn't it a wonderful problem though, other colleges have empty parking lots," Iadarola said. According to Director of Security Richard Kralle, the problem is the visitors are taking up the spaces for the residents. Students said that there are no signs to inform them where to park. There are also some students who do not have their cars registered on campus. Gary White, sophomore and corresponding secretary for SGA

said," A lot of good questions were asked, but nothing was decided upon." According to White, it might have helped more if some of the questions raised were solved. Junior Dana Caterson said, "I thought the students thought they were going to get instant answers from Dr. Iadarola. According to Caterson, the forum was a good idea,but she thinks the administrators from each department should help answer the questions because Iadarola can not do it by herself. "The community has to come together as a whole for an open forum."

Volleyballset back from PAC Tough week has /adv Cavs' back to the wall • by Mary Anne Walker staff writer

When Cabrini's women's volleyball team gathers round and chants WIN, that is their goal -- to win the Pennsylvania Athletic Conference Division title! "We have the potential to win the league and beat the teams from the north," said Jim Harrigan, head coach of women's volleyball. "It's just a matter of communication." According to Tracy Loftus, senior tri captain, "this season is tough but it's not impossible. It's a challenge but it's one that can be met. We have a great chance of taking our di vision." Last week, the team faced a tri match that involved Gwynedd Mercy and Bryn Mawr colleges. Cabrini lost to Bryn Mawr College in the first round but played an impressive game in the second round, beating Gwynedd Mercy. who is one of the southern colleges included in the PAC conference. In the PAC conference Cabrini's volleyball team plays the best out of five games. In

the match last Tuesday, Sept. 29. Cabrini downed Gwynedd Mercy with a three game , score of 16-14, 15-8 and 15-13. It was an action packed match with pumped up players. Dan Eberhardt, a spectator at the game on Tuesday, said, "These girls are wonderful and play well together. They are a small team with a lot of talent." Chester Weekes, also a spectator and father of senior tri captain Pamela Weekes, said, "They're playing really well and in the four years that I've seen them play, each year they have progressed. I watched the very first game Pam played and the team has improved immensely." During the game against Gwynedd Mercy, Jill Saam, sophomore had a number of killer spikes.
