President, trustee quizzed

by Gene Hutter 路 "We do not have student trustees ...

They (the students) do not vote at the trustee level ... " This was a response of Sr. Mary Louise Sullivan when asked if there was student representation on the Board. of Trustees of Cabrini College.

On Oct. 7, Sister Mary Louise, president of Cabrini College, and James J. Maguire, chairman of the college Board of Trustees, were interviewed by Marty Jacobs 路 on "Delaware Valley '77," WKBS-TV 48.

Regarding student representation on the Board of Trustees, Sister Mary Louise stated: "We do not have student trustees, but we are permitted by our by-laws to have students involved in the committees of the Board of Trustees. I'm proud to say that at Cabrini College our students are very much involved. We have a good student government organization.

Students have seats on the master planning committee which does very .

much of the projection~ for the college and the implementation of new programs.

They do not vote at the trustees level but have a lot of input into the college itself and its direction."

A poised Sr. Mary Louise gave a brief history of. Cabrini as a four-year liberal arts college and its development over the past 20 years. When questioned by Mr. Jacobs 路about Cabrini's position when colleges are facing a decrease in enrollment, Sister Mary Louise replied, "When you say decreasing I think you're talking, primarily, of the 18 to 21-year-old market, which indeed is decreasing. But most colleges, and I'm happy to report that Cabrini is in the forefront of this area, have gone into the other educational needs of th~ community at large, responding to the needs of an adult population, more and f!IOre df whom are seeking a continuing education. We'_ve devel~ed an . evening .

hires graduates

by Bact,araPolomano Three Cabrini graduates have been chosen as admissions counselors, here.

The three graduates, Fran MacDonald, '77, Joyce McCreesh, '74, and Tom Nerney, '77, along with all other applicants, were informed of the available positions early last summer. From the ad in the "Philade]phia Inquirer," 285 resumes were r.eceived. Of the four alumnae classes informed, from 1974 to 1977, about 12 graduates responded.

Six outside applicants and six Cabrini graduates were chosen to be interviewed.

Dr. Dorothy Brown, Mrs. Estelle Oristaglio, Dr. Sharon Schwarze, Dr. Luther Shaw and Dr. Joseph Romano conducted the intt91-views.

"We looked at their educational background, their personal and their job experiences. We looked at the way their resume was submitted," Mrs. Oristaglio, a part of the interviewing team explaine<f "We sought after applicants with a bachelors degree. We looked for cert-ain personal qualities, such as the ability to communicate both verbally and in writing. We sought candidates who believed in the value of a liberal arts education as part of the preparation for a specific career or further studies," she explains.

Each applicant talked to the interviewing team in a group discussion.

Each interviewer then wrote down names of those they felt were best qualified.

Mr. Maguire was asked the question regarding the function of the Board of Trustees. He responded, "Principally, the Board of Trustees at Cabrini College is concerned, number one, with private education as an alternative to public education. We sincerely believe that private education is a very important alternative and it must be preserved.

Further, the Board has a responsibility from a financial standpoint: College is a business like any other business and we have to run it as a business, and ~ have to break even or try to make a profit, if possible. That's not too possible today, I might add. But we have to run the school as a business, princioallv ." (cont't:J.p.2)

T.V. Talk Show (from p. 1)

Mr. Jacobs expressed his concern that "the idea that a college or any educational facility is a profit-making facility would fall very alien on the majority of the viewers ears." Mr. Maguire responded: "Well, certainly not a profit-making facility, but we have expenses like any other business. Four years ago when I joined the Board of Trustees at Cabrini. College there were three lay trustees. In the last four years we've made an effort to build the lay trustees to today where we have 12 lay trustees, all business and civic leaders in the Delaware Valley community, all interested in preservingthe idea of private education."

"Why would someone want to go to Cabrini versus going to Temple or Rutgers, for example," was another question posed. Sr. Mary Louise answered by saying: "I don't think it's so much a versus as having found something which they feel appeals to them. Cabrini offers, for a small college, quite a large range of academic programs."

Sr. Mary Louise then went on to give a - synoises ofthe· programs . at Cabrini. She continued: "New areas, too, are opening up at Cabrini, such as the Business Administration program, which we'refiust beginning this year. The Communications department has grown . . . Children's theater and our theater laboratory is another reason why many people choose Cabrini ... " Mr. Maguire also responded to the question "Why Cabrini?" saying that: "Another key issue is the student-faculty · ratio, Mr. Jacobs. At Cabrini College the · students have a chance to become intimate with the faculty -faculty-student ratio is about 1-20 (actually 1-13)- as opposed to a larger school where many times you never get an opportunity to be intimate with the faculty. So, this is a very key issue that many students are opting for today.

Other questions were asked of the college regarding its change from an all-girl college to a co-educational college.

The topic of college sports was discussed, whereby, Mr. Jacobs asked: "How did you pick soccer to be co-educational rather than, let's say, volleyball?" Mr. Maguire's response was, "Well, it was the goalie, frankly, who was so good that we had to put her on the team."

For those who missed viewing the interviewing, you missed an interesting question and answer discussion regarding Cabrini College.

,Come stretch your mind

by Kim Hayes. · Our college catalogues offer useful information about the college experience, but they cannot give a first-hand feel of the college classroom itself to high school students.

This fall Cabrini will introduce qualified, cqllege-bound high school juniors and seniors to the excitement of participating in real college courses through the "Mind Stretcher Series."

Dr. Sharon Schwarze, assistant professor of philosophy and coordinator of the "Mind Stretcher Series," says the plan is "a public service to the community" and not an admissions program.

The series is hoping to reach two different kinds of students: *academically talented students who would be further enriched with a real college experience;

*students who are uncertain about college and might need help in arriving at a decision .

The "Mind Stretcher Series" consists of four separate lectures from the philosophy , history, English and biology departments. Each department will spend an individual Saturday introducing a phase of its program.

The series will begin on Saturday, Oct. 22, and finishes on Saturday, Nov. 19.

Students have the choice of attending only one or all of the lectures.

Dr. Schwarze said "this personal invitation" has been sent o"t to approximately 30 local schools . There have been about 30 responses so far from individual students.

Because some students may be hesitant, an attempt is being made to assure transportation.

Intern·comesto counseling center

by L-oretta Afioto A part time intern has come to ,Cabrini's new counseling center. He is .Frank Chambers, '73 Villanova graduate.

Mr. Chambers is working· on his masters at Villanova and came to Cabrini through a priest friend of Dr. Dorothy Brown. An interview was scheduled with Dr. Brown in August proceeded by an interview with Father Tom Piechocinski.

As a result from that interview, Frank Chambers was accepted as an intern with no salary.

Frank's school courses have prepared him to work with college students for · personal, vocational and career assistance.

His courses have included: Communication Skills; Art of Active Listening; Group Pr~ess; Statistics_:

The academic reinforcement roorn is counseled by Arthur Young whose prfmary objective is to improve study , skills of students. The psychology room is · staffed by Mr. Anthony Tornasco and the two consulting psychologists, Dr. Sydney Portnoy and Dr. Donald D'Orazio.

A future possibility may include a · computer terminal where students can get 'a print out of career interests. . Frank's hours are Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 :p.m., and Father Tom may be found ! Monday to Thursday, from 9 a.m. -t_o5 p.m.

Mr. Chambers wants students to know that "the more possibilities you explore in various careers, the more confident you will feel in your decision making."

Sue O'H~n Junior-Senior Weekend, the first major class activity of the year, has left both the junior and senior classes in serious debt.

When · asked why the debt incurred, Senior Class President Judy Clay responded, "there just weren't enough people there."

Tickets for the Oct. 28 dinner-dance went ,on sale on a first-come-first-serve · basis at $26 per couple. . Only 200 tickets were available because of the limited space of The : Willows, a converted mansion five i minutes from here, where the dance was i held.

Organizers expected the tickets to be ' gone immediately after they went on sale.

EDITORIAL A studentspeaks College is more than classes It's rather odd how you entitled a recent Loquitur editorial "We need your help to improve the newspaper."

When I was a member of the Loquitur staff, I found out that my articles were corrected, edited, and reviewed by the Journalism classes. I was under the false impression that only my page editor would see my articles, not a whole class.

At another time I wrote an article on the women's volleyball team. I expected it to be edited somewhat, but to my amzaement the article appeared not only edited, but much shorter than it had been and totally rewritten in the style befitting an English/Communications major.

I don't mean to say that I am a polished writer. I know I'm not.

The point that I am stressing however, is that we who join the Loquitur staff with every interesvfo writing are rudely awa.kened to the fact that our style must conform to that of an English major.

Check your staff box! You have sixteen members on the staff. Fifteen of them are English majors. And you tell me that the Loquitur doesn't belong to a minority of students!

While on the Loquitur staff, I felt alienated and lost in the shuffle as a non-major. If this is what the average non English/Communications major must face in order to be part of the staff, then there will continue to be only one or two non-majors on the staff.

In my own opinion, the Loquitur is the product of the Journalism classes and until it becomes more than this you won't get much student support or

interest.

So

: -Graduation if he or she is a senior.

According to Dr. Girard the Hall of .

Fame "is a reflection by the Board of Trustees that the Athletic program at Cabrini College has grown significantly during the past three years."

by MaureenLarkin When many of us came to college, we had more than the idea of an education on our minds. Many of us probably thought more about the social aspects of college than anything else.

However, there is another aspect of . college that many of us have forgotten or maybe just ignored. This is the cultural side of college. The cultural aspect here at Cabrini has not been too vivid during these past few years. This year, however, will definitely be different.

Cabrini is presently celebrating its 20th anniversary and in honor of this momentous occasion, many diverse activities have been planned for this school year.

If we would just take the time to look through "This Week AT Cabrini"' you would see what I mean. There have been and will be so many different activities taking place on campus.

These presentations can broaden your cultural experiences in so many ways, if you attend them.

For example, this year Cabrini has an artist-in-residence.

For those of you unfamiliar with her, her name is Agi Jambor. Madame Jambor can play a variety of instruments and has a diversified musical background. On Oct. 9, Madame Jambor presented a concert featuring the music of Hanedl. Now maybe, this fjarticular type of music isn't your favorite but actually hearing it live

instead of recorded, really makes a huge difference. For those of us who may have missed her first concert, don't fret.

Madame Jambor will have another concert on Nov. 13, so you still have another chance to listen to her musical ability.

Another program which we should not overlook is the 20th Anniversary Lecture Series. On specific dates, which will be listed in "This Wee~ At Cabrini" lectures sponsored by the various departemnts will take place. A wide variety of.topics will be covered and I'm certain there will be at least one that would appeal to a few members of the student body.

This is just another way that we can expand our cultural outlook without , going outside the boundaries of Cabrini.

In addition to the 20th Anniversary Lecture Series, talks will be sponsored by the various clubs on campus. These too should prove to be very informative.

• My point is that we should not overlook the cultural aspect of our college education, especially this year with all of the different presentations, talks, and concerts occurring. So, there is no reason why our cultural aspect of college should suffer. There is also no reason why we should complain that there is nothing going on here at Cabrini.

One look at "This Week At Cabrini" will· prove us wrong.

Wtien half of the tickets remained unsold a week before the dance, junior and senior class officers took action.

The evening was opened to underclassmen and tickets were sold at the door in an effort to meet the $2,600 costs. Originally, the dinner-dance was exclusively for members of the junior and senior classes, their guests, and members of the faculty and administration.

Dwarvesget small

by StephenPedano "Snow White" will have seven sore dwarves by the time the show opens on Nov. 10. 路 The cast and crew have little time to prepare for the show's opening. Vigorous rehearsals under the direction of Dan 'Perna are in full swing.

"There 's so much work to do," echoes Perna to his new and veteran members of the Lab. The cast and crew agree whole-heartedly.

Laurie Davy is cast as Snow White.

Now a veteran, Laurie made her debut as one of Cinderella's ugly stepsisters, and went on to a dramatic role in "The House of Bernarda Alba."

Loretta Alioto will play the wicked Queen Brangomar. She has been with the company for "Picnic" and "Bernarda Alba."

John Gallagher debuts with the company as Berthold the woodsman, and Michael Heaps, a transfer student, also: debuts as Prince Florimond of Calydon. ' Old and new members of the Lab are "getting small" for their roles as dwarves.

Brett Schwartz is cast as Doc the eldest and leader of the seven. Bret~ is a, freshman who made his debut in路 "Theater Lab 2-Night" with a segment of "Our Town."

Little Red Riding Hood carried ~ woven basket and wore a red-hooded cape. Jack-be-nimble jumped over ~ candlestick. The delicious gingerbread : man that was baked in the oven escaped from the pan. After reading all of this, you probably think ' of nursery rhymes: But did you ever consider the objects mentioned as folk art?

Folk art expresses fashion and individuality. The designers of these folk -art pieces are weavers, sewers, candlestick makers, bakers or non-professionals. The objects can be used for something - ' storage, clothing decoration and food etc.

Folk art pieces were not necessarily handmade. Many of them were stamped, molded or pressed. Its origin was in the populous, industrialized North rather small CQUntry areas where you'd think ' that handicrafts might flourish.

Folk art can be learned from someone.

A person can make an object and have it considered artistic by a folk group if his/her work is composed of fine craftsmanship with the creator's name represented on the art work, feels Dr. Carter Craigie, Social Science department ,---------------------------------. chairpersonatCabrini.

He also thinks that crafts that are 1recognized as folk art can be reproduced by manufacturers but the craftsman's individuality is lost.

About 225 such folk art objects are on display at the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford through Nov. 16. The , Imuseum is opened from 9:30 a.m. to ..

4:30 p.m.

Some significant items on display are a Shenandoah Valley pottery lion made by John Bell, the only signed one and one of four in existence; a tall caselock made by John Paul, ; r., in 1815 who was the designer of the horseshoe curve of the Pennsylvania Railroad; and 223 other crafts that may interest you.

The other works that are on display are anonymous, done simply to show his/her skill or to make the object useful to someone.

Grumpy will be played by Steve Pedano, previously seen in "The Wizard of Oz," "Pinocchio," and "Cinderella." ) Happy will be played by Mary DiJ oseph whose list of credits includes "Wizard," "Picnic," "Pinocchio," and "Bernarda Alba."

Bashful will be played by Carol Palidora, a freshman and assistant Choreographer for the production.

Sleepy will be played by Connie Aiello who also debuted in "Theater Lab 2-Night," singing "Over the Rainbow," and "If I Love You." "Gesundheit," to Barb McHugh who will play Sneezy. Barb has also been with the company for "Liliom" and "The Wizard."

Dopey will be played by the youngest member of the company Daniele Perna, who has worked in most of the children's plays. He has been everything from a munch kin to a horse.

Anne Marie Albert will fill the role of Witch Hex, the Queen's cohort. She made her Cabrini debut playing opposite Brett in the "Our Town" segment.

Madeleine Cahill, Cabrini's own Cinderella, and Beth Dunn, another stepsister, will serve as resident Storybook Fairies.

''Fried!l!Iflick causes gas

by William Bead

' Kentucky Fried Movie" is an often funny film in the tradition of "Monty Python's Flying Circus," "The Groove Tube," and "Saturday Night Live." It satirizes beer commercials, TV shows of the Fifties, new cars, and even charities.

It also satirizes movies.

It makes fun of all sorts of movies. It makes fun of the Pam Grier films in a' 路segment called "Cleopatra Schwartz," it satirizes soft-core pornography with . "Catholic High School Girls In Trouble," it takes off on disaster films, "The Wizard of Oz," and martial-arts piece is called "A Fistful! of Yen," it's a direct take off on , "Enter The Dragon." It's 25 minutes ofa : 90-minute movie and it's the best part of the film.

It has plenty of stars, and a few people you might only recognize. It has Henry Gibson, and Bill Bixby in commercial bits. It lias Australian movie star and one-time James Bond, George Lazenby.

Donald Sutherland has a cameo role.

Tony Dow plays the same role in the movie as he did in' "Leave It To Beaver," 20 years ago, as Beavers older brother Wally. O.K., so it's not an all-star cast.

The movie is rated R. It has nudity, violence, and obscene speech. So, if you can't laugh at gorillas or naked women, , stay away from this film.

It's an above average comedy film. If ~ you've seen all the current comedy films two or three times, go see "Kentucky Fried Movie." It's good for a laugh. 路

the athletic asp~ct of Cabrini College.

In order to be recommended by the Athletic department, Dr. Jolyon P. Girard, head of men's athletics, takes two things into account. Girard first takes notice of athletic prowess in a particular sport or sports. Then he looks at the · athletes' game statistics, films, and their scholarship abilities.

The awards are basically given to students who are already here and show exceptional athletic abilities. Also they are awarded to incoming freshmen as a part of a recruiting program. Dr. Girard says, "Many schools on the itnercollegiate level offer scholarships to attract good athletes. So if we hope to compete with other schools athletically we must award money to attract good athletes also."

This year the activity awards were given a budget of $9,500. The Athletic department gave six awards this year all for the amount of $500.

· Why sports . "•

sports program is that of "beefing up" An active participant in just about all the school's reputation. If you were to the sports activities might say that the ask Dr. Girard or Mrs. Goodwin what purpose of any college sports program is Cabrini was like before we had a to afford those students who are "good basketball team, I think they would tell you it was the pits. athletes" with a chance to be just that, good athletes.

Sports has brought a good deal of Well that might be part of it, but a income to Cabrini. Although it is not in college is supposed to serve all of its the same way that sports at LaSalle or Penn State does, we still attract a good students in the best way possible.

Catering to only those who are number of students because of the opportunities 'to play a certain sport. sports-oriented would be excluding I have mentioned a few good reasons, students who lack the ability to run and dribble at the same time. And there are but not one of them could be used as the those of us that can do neither - me for sole reason to have a sports program. Or could it? one.

Maybe beefing up a school's Another reason for a sports program is reputatio.n is the major reason here at to satisfy the yearnings of an excited spectator. All of us want to see a good Cabrini but I don't think people want to soccer game once in a while, one where hear this. A good number of students the players bang heads as battering rams complain about the fact that so many athletic scholarships are awarded each do.

Or a volleyball game might serve the year. Little do they realize that this practice is helping them in the long run . purpose if it is one that gets every fan out of his seat, like the game against , We get students who would choose Swarthmore did a few weeks ago. .other schools if it were not for the But all of you know as well as I do scholarship. They would take their that spectators are not a good part of our money and ability and plunk it into a sports program here. Turnout at soccer school that could offer them more. And games is minimal, so much so that at there Cabrini would sit, with a third rate times our fans are outnumbered by fans team of any kind and we would all be unhappy because our bleachers and that come from a school miles away.

Another possible reason for a college courts would be empty. Think about it!

Hall of fame

by HarroldWilson Due to the efforts of the Athleti-: Association and ·a cooperative Board of Trustees _Cabrini College now has its very own Hall of Fame.

The idea for a Hall of Fame came about during a meeting of the Athletic Association last yeai'. The Asso~iation then presented the idea to the Board of Trustees, who in turn agreed it was a good idea, and permitted the idea to become a reality.

The Hall of Fame was named after Dr. Jolyon P. Girard, with Mrs. Helen Goodwin as the first to be inducted.

Inductees must meet two requirements.

The first criterion is that you must be a graduate or any other deserving person connected with Cabrini. Secondly you must be nominated by a selection committee that consists of the chairperson of the Baord of Trustees, president and secretary of the A.A., president of the Student Government Association, one faculty member, and the Head Coach of the Athletic Department.
