"The water on the floor was disgusting. I'm glad they fixed it," freshman Michele E. Lester said.

There seems to be many mixed emotions about the laundry facilities located in the dorms and houses, which are provided by Cabrini College. Most rooms are equipped with at least two washers and two dryers. No need to drag a bag full of dirty clothes home, doing laundry; at Cabrini is free.

Junior Kristen Getka, a resident assistant in Xavier Hall, said, "It's great that they are free, but no one is considerate. Posting signs doesn't work; people still move other people's clothes."

Despite the no-charge service, students have a few issues concerning the sanitation of the facility. While leaky hoses and water

"The mission of the task force is to inspire students to review their lifestyles and make informed healthy decisions regarding substances," according to the Office of Student Activities at Cabrini.

Students all over the country deal with drinking related problems yearly. Each campus that participates gears the week-long event to the size and needs of that particular school. Cabrini is taking part by offering events throughout the week.

Enjoy mind-reading and magic Friday night at 8 p.m. by the Psychic Madman and his sidekick Ethan in Grace Hall. This is an event held to help show there is more to life than just drinking according to resident assistant Ryan Norris. Norris also added how much of a success the mind-reading duo was over this past summer's orientation.

Midnight Madness is Saturday night. Come celebrate school spmt (and healthy lifestyles) with Laser tag, free food, and prizes. The amazing "Human Refrigerator" will be eating light bulbs and other living and inanimate objects. The PEER educators will be around the whole evening handing out pamphlets on alcohol and drugrelated issues.

Unwinding on Sunday, church-goers can seek peace by attending mass at the Brockmann Chapel of St. Joseph at 7 p.m. This service will be sponsored by Campus Ministry.

Jazzman's Cafe promoted the task force by offering two hour drug awareness tables including a personal assessment and valuable information on Tuesday October 21. Similar sessions were held in the dining hall Wednesday,October 22.

Students joined together Wednesday night to watch "When a Man Loves a Woman."

This movie focused on alcoholism striking a wife and effecting her marriage and life. The PEER educators sponsored this event.

Students can learn to be a little more responsible with the alcohol awareness week, according to senior Marian Gibfried. "At least some of the students will be a little less nai've when it comes to serious substance abuse issues in the future," Gibfried said.
