Thedebateover biologyGER's continues

by Barbara Mongelli The debate continues about the relevance of the current course offering in biology to satisfy the General Education Requirement (GER). There is also a definite contrast between students' and teachers' opinions as to the reasons for problems with the biology course.

A majority of the students feel that the problem lies in the course content and/or the procedure for teaching it. The biology department, on the other hand, feels that students entering a college level course are not adequately prepared from their high school science courses.

The GER for all non-science majors requires eight credit hours of a science course with a lab. The two available options are Biological Principles and Scientific Perspectives, which is classified as a chemistry course.

According to Joseph Romano, academic dean, the goals of a science education for a non-science major are "an appreciation of the methodology of science, and to be

'It is my belief that this much needed reform of biological education involves two aspects of introductory nonmajors courses-their content and their presentation. Failure to nsider both may piave t the successful eduaction of liberal arts students, including those among them who will be tomorrow's leaders.'

-Elof Axel Carlson from Arthur Chickering's The Modern College' familiar with the terminology (of science), so that we can understand our scientific world with a certain degree of literacy."

Maybe the answer lies within the students inability to see topics taught in the present science course as relevant to everyday living. As Jeanne Hoepfl, senior said, "Why do I need to know what an amoeba is? I'm not sure how relevant it is today."

Several people have said that they feel a course that covers topics such as nuclear power, criminology and drugs in relation to science would be more beneficial.

Concerning subject matter, Romano said, "The minimum that we are trying to acccomplish relates to the human body. If we try to broaden it, we would be diluting it."

In Arthur Chickering's "The Modem College," Elof Axel Carlson writes, "As more BIOLOGY GER'S on 5

Class of '86 lacks funds for Sophomore/SeniorFarewell

by D.B. Field Besides being scheduled on Friday the 13th (of April), Cabrini's traditional Sophomore /Senior Farewell is also in financial trouble. According to Presiden't of the Sophomore Class Karen Labenz, the sophomores have only raised $1,450, the SGA has allotted them $1,500, and they need $5,000.

"We're pretty short on money right now, but it's not unatainable," Labenz said. "We need to go all out or there won't be a Sophomore/Senior." (If there is a Sophomore/Senior it is scheduled to be at St . David's Inn, St. David's.)

Labenz cites lack of participation from the entire student body, especially the sophomore and senior class , as the reason for the lack of funds.

In an attempt to resolve the problem, Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities, has scheduled an "All-School Forum" to be moderated by the SGA executive board on Wednesday, Feb. 29 at 9:30 p.m. in the Widener Center Lecture Hall.

"The meeting is to help the student body understand what the needs of the sophomore class are," DiRaddo ~plained.

"We're going to offer two fundraising possibilitie~ "First , there is selling tickets for the Philadelphia Stars first home game (Mar. 18, 2:30 p.m.). The tickets are $9.75 each . If we sell 25 tickets , we get $2 per ticket. If we sell 100 tickets , we get $3 per ticket ."

"This event could work really well. We could sell tickets to people in the local area, even student's parents. If we get a really large group together we could have a 'tailgate party ' with a couple of large rootbeer kegs , and Cabrini College displayed on the Phana vision . The nice thing about these tickets is that you don't have to stay with the group. You can sit anywhere in Veteran 's stadium ."

DiRaddo continued "Second, we will propose a St. Patrick Day Dance (Mar. 17). If I flip the bill for the dance so that the sophomores get clear profit, and no one comes; then it's useless.

So were going to use the meeting to ask the students if they 'll support us. I'll also need to know specifically if the seniors will attend, so I'll know if we should have a cash bar or not. If the cash bars only sell 100 drinks, like at the Superthon Dance ; then the bartenders don't feel it's worth it."

"If people feel that the sophomores are going about their fundraising wrong, the meeting will also be a forum for suggestions. I hope to see the lecture hall packed with students .

We will also announce the price of tickets ." DiRaddo said .

'We're pretty short on money right now, but it's not unatainable. We need to go all out or there won't be a Sophomore/ Senior.'

-Karen Labenz, president of the sophomore class According to Robin Larkins , junior , SGA president , ''The re will be an informal meeting between the two classes and other concerned individuals before the 'All-School Forum ' to facilitat e the communications process.

The statement of the Missionary Sisters supports the stand taken by the American Bishops in their 1980 Pastoral Letter on Peace by stating, "We speak in supporting our Bishops who have condemned intervention in the name of the Gospel conviction of the worth of human dignity" and "in support of the right of other nations to determine their own destiny."

Nicaragua: MissionarySisters hold politicat family conCern When you decided to go to · Cabrini College, did you ever think that you were joining an international organization, an organization that extends beyond the Philadelphia area into places like Brazil, Argentina, Italy, and Central America?

Last month, a political and moral statement was released by the international order of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, sponsors of Cabrini College, to the campus community. The statement condemned American intervention in Nicarargua.

barbara bruhin The statement is made as a result of a family concern which the Missionary Sisters have for their sisters in Nicaragua, but more significantly, it is made by an organization of American citizen who have witnessed first hand, what they feel is unwarrented and unnecessary infringement of American power on neighboring nations.

The Missionary Sisters have members from both Nicaragua and the United States, as well as other nations who are working for the good of the people living in Nicaragua. The experience of the Missionary Sisters reaches back over 50 years into the history of the nation.

They have experienced a Nicaragua under the rule of U.S. supported Somoza dynasty which was responsible for increasingly repressive policies in the nation. They remained in the country throughout the revolution in which the marxist Sandinista rebels overthrew the Somoza dynasty and have witnessed an increase in concern for the dignity of the human being under this new form of government.

Under the new government, the sisters have witnessed first hand, impovements for the poor, improved health care, ~ new f~eedom of the press, and an overall respect for the dignity of life. None of these important issues were given attention by the U.S. backed Samoza dynasty.

However, despite the changes for the betterment of life in Nicaragua, the sisters have also witnessed an increasing U .S. effort to support anti-Sandinista guerillas operating from Honduras.

1o deny the citizens of a nation the right to choose their own form of government and way of life is to thwart the American ideal of freedom.'

Nicaraguans are not unwarrented in their fear of being invaded by the overpowering United States. Since the mid19th century, the United States has flexed their military muscle more than 60 times in Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean. ·

The Missionary Sisters argue, and rightly so, that _. an independent government should have the right to decide their own form of government without forced interference and threats of an overpowering neighbor.'

The Missionary Sisters argue, and rightly so, that an independent nations should have the right to decide their own form of government without forced interference and threats from an overpowering neighbor.

The dignity of human life which is supported by the new Sandinista government is in keeping with some of the very principles on which the U.S . government is based . To deny the citizens of a nation the right to chose their own form of government and way of life is to thwart the American ideal of freedom.

Special event

lacked coverage

Dear Editor, I am writing on behalf of the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC), the Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA), and the Cabrini Association for the Education of Young Children (CAEYC). These Cabrini education clubs sponsored the St. Mary's Christmas party that was held on December 6, i983. The girls from the St. Mary of Providence Center in Elverson have been coming to Cabrini for a Christmas party for 20 years.

For most of these mentally retarded girls, . this is their only Christmas celebration.

Although the education clubs sponsor this activity, the entire Cabrini community has always been encouraged to participate. This past year, an Adopt a Little Sister program was estabilished which involved every residence, the commuters , the faculty and the administrative offices on campus. Each girl was sponsored by one of these groups . Gifts were gathered for each girl and representatives from each group were present at the party to share in the celebration with their little sisters.

The success of the party was due to the united effort put forth by the Cabrini community as a whole.

Unfortunately, this beautiful celebration of Christmas spirit and Cabrini spirit was not covered by the "Loquitur." Those of us who sponsored the Christmas party are very upset that nothing appeared in the newspaper, especially since an announcement of the date, time and place was made available to the staff well in advance .

It is obvious to us to us that it is too late now for anything to be done about the situation. However, we apreciate this opportunity to express our feelings . CEC, PSEA, and CAEYC would once again like to thank the entire Cabrini community for their participation and support. You made the St. Mary's Christmas party the success that it was! We would also like to urge the "Loquitur", in the future, to accurately report newsworthy activities on Cabrin's campus, especially ones that are such joyous celebrations of love and giving in the Christian spirit . After all, isn't that what Cabrini, as a Catholic college, is all about? · Sincerely Nicole Meoli, President CEC

Sophomore/Seniorco'uld use a reevaluation The sophomore class is in a real bind. They do not have quite enough money to finance one of Cabrini's biggest traditions, Sophomore /Senior Farewell. To date the sophomore class is almost $2000 short with only about six weeks until the event is scheduled to occur.

The lack of participation by the sophomore class and the entire student body in general is part of the cause for this dilemma. But the question of who is to blame is not important, what is important is the saving of Sophomore /Senior . It is the most important social event of the year. The lost of this traditional, event during this time of struggling activities and poor student participation , would be a great tragedy . Sophomore /Senior is a greatly anticipated event and seems to bring the end of the school year to a perfect close.

future years successfully. The rising enrollment has caused larger senior classes, thus making placing tremendous pressure on the sophomore class.

Maybe the burden of this major event should not rest with the sophomores.

Have the event Junior /Senior moved to the Spring to take the place of Sophomore / Senior . This would give a class three years to raise funds for the event for the final senior farewell. For the juniors to host this event would represent that strong bond that usually is associated with junior .rand senior classes .

One problem with this is the transitional year . But , in the long run it may be the best solution to help an event that is costing more and more each year .

Therefore, it is in everyones interest to attend the "AllSchool Forum " on Feb. 28. The purpose of the forum is to suggest fundraising ideas and solutions for the sophomore class.

To help lessen the cost of Sophomore /Senior maybe the seniors should be asked to pay for half of the ticket price . This solution , although this takes away form the traditonal view of Sophomore /Senior in fact would help the event to continue successfully in ye;µ-s to come.

Loquitur agrees with Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities . We feel that Sophomore /Senior needs to be reevaluated in order for it to continue in

A bit of advice to the sophomore class, ifit wanted the Sophomore /Senior Farewell to be a successful! event, it should not have been planned for a Friday the 13th.

Biologycourse needs to be more relevant How many times have you reluctantly signed up for that general education requirement (GER) course, thinking how much more enjoyable it would be to take an elective that interests you more? This is a common gripe among students.

The sentiment does not usually stem from the student's true dislike of the subject, but rather a fear of how they will be able to handle a course that is not their "specialty ."

This feeling sometimes goes a bit deeper for the required bi_ology course. The nonmajors' dislike of biology probably goes back to high school where they struggled through daily lectures and weekly labs, asking themselves why they had to know such irrelevant, incomprehensible information.

In college though, a student should be able to approach such subjects differently, with an open mind. A college student should be able to take what they learn in a biology course and apply it to the challenges that they will face in society.

Biology seems to be an abstract, untouchable course; yet it deals with the very basis of life, and almost every aspect of it in on~ way or another.

If a biology course for nonmajors, for example those who plan to go into business or human services, is structured and presented in a practical lay-man's way, it would be more beneficial. ·

A college student should

be (?ble to take what they learn in a biology courses and apply it to the challenges that they will face in society.

As Elof Axel Carlson writes in Arthur Chickering's ''The Modern College ," ''The abstract principles of nucleic acid, Mendalian laws, and mitotic division and developmental processes are remote and quickly forgotten by students if they ar.e not directly tied to students' own experiences."

A biology course that covers some of the topics that are both scientifically based, and of social importance, becomes useful, no longer abstract.

Some topics that should be included are: prenatal diagnosis, pollution , birth control, and nuclear power. These are topics which most of us will make decisions on; the only way to make rational decisions on such matters will be to have a comprehensive background.

When any subject is put into common language and related to current events, it is more likely to remain with you as you make important decisions .

This is the key to a successful biology course for those who don't necessarily plan to make biology part of their career, but will most definitely be involved in some of the applications of scientific knowledge.

The GER requirement in biology should be overhauled. The current course offering has at its basis, noble principles, but its principles are not being effectively implemented.

Housinglotteryundergoesseveralrevisions

by Shelagh McGinn The 1984 housing lottery has undergone revisions to benefit students as well as the administration, according to Mary Ellen Lilly, assistant director of resident life.

"The changes made are administrative changes," said Gus Nicoletti, director of resident life.

The change that most involves the students is the process of applying for housing. Each student is required to apply for housing at a specified date in the office of resident life.

The purpose of the application process is to update residential files. As incoming freshmen, each student was required to fill out a housing application. The residential staff needs to update these files for their own purposes. ' r-

"In general, I think that most people at Cabrini East want to come over to the main campus," Lilly said.

The projected date of completion for the new dorm is January, 1985. Cabrini East will be utilized for the fall semester.

According to Nicoletti, "proposals are under study" concerning the future residents of the new dorm.

Student response to tnis new process 1s varied. Many feel that the administration is stressing the process too much.

"The revisions are necessary but it doesn't need all this attention," said Debi Johnson, sophomore. "They are just glorifying some administrative changes."

"It seems they are making too big a deal over something minor," added Maureen Nowak, sophomore.

Committeeseeks responsible d~pendableRA's

by Bonnie Zischang The applicants for the position of resident assistant have a long process required of them, beginning with four group sessions.

They are attending these mandatory student development sessions on Tuesday nights, with the exception of the returning RA's.

At the beginning of the sessions, each applicant is given a packet which contains an outlined description of the RA's job and various articles to read. A series of worksheets and checklists are given to the applicant, dealing with their personal development, beliefs and observations.

According to Mary Ellen Lilly, assistant director ofresident life, "The purpose of the seminar is for the interview committee to observe the applicants in a group process situation. They role play by portraying a problem situation or dilemma and the applicantf' demonstrate how they wouk react. This process serves as an assessment tool as far as commu-. nication skills, listening skillE

and also shows how empathetic a person tends to be."

The personal attributes that the committee is looking for are integrity, dependability, initiative, creativity, and leadership skills.

After the applicant has completed the four successive group sessions, they are given the official application.

One requirement is the submission of three personal letters of recommendation.

Although these letters were required last year, it was not clarified who was to write them. A letter from the department head, advisor and a member of the faculty or administrative staff are the essential sources of the letters of recommendation. If the department head and advisor are the same, then another faculty member must replace the third required letter. Lilly stated that the application forms and letters · of recommendation are held in complete c_o!l,fi<!_entiality.

......-------1:--ran,

Finally, the last step is the personal interview. The interview committee consists of Gus Nicoletti, director of resident life, Mary Ellen Lilly, assistant director of resident life, Sr. Christine , Baltas, dean of students, Colleen DiRaddo, director of student activities, Sr. Bernadette Casciano, Campus Ministry, three resident managers, senior RA's and some members of the senior class.

Sr. Bernadette Casciano, Campus Ministry, explained that the committee studies how the appli- l cant handles stress in their own life and shows how the gap can be ' bridged between the student and administrative assistant.

"I look to see what their understanding is of helping others and I listen for the kind of value orientation they have," said Casciano.

According to Lilly, the applicants are judged on their overall participation in the seminar, the three letters of recommendation and the interview. "The system is

all done in fairness. The applicant is given many chances to prove himself competent of the job, either through the group sessions or the personal interview," said Lilly.

When asked if there were any changes in the RA application process, Ellen Lavelle, senior RA ·commented, ,' 'The four sessions are the same but I feel the emphasis is placed on different things ."

All the senior RA's are on the interviewing committee and they, as well as others on the committee examine strong and weak points in the applicants.

Lavelle commented, "It is a very good personal growth learning experience. Even if you are not chosen an RA, you definitely gain something from the experience."

by Mary Beth Evich Woodcrest heating system has been a problem according to the students who reside in that dorm.

On many occasions last and this semester the residents of Woodcrest have gone without heat.

Kathy Dugan, freshman , said "When the heat breaks down which has occurred more than once or twice, I'm not only freezing but aggravated at the time it takes for it to warm the dorm again ."

Trish O'Callaghan , freshman, said , "They keep telling us this is supposed to happen when the weather changes. I think they better come up with a better excuse than that . This is about the tenth time it happened , that's suppose to be normal. " According to Michael Caranfa , building and grounds director , "There is nothing wrong with the heating system in Woodcrest. The system is only two years old."

Caranfa said , " It is bound to happen and you can bank on it happening again . The problems that did occur in Woodcrest were minor and due to the extreme cold weather."

BIOLOGYGER'S from1 we look at how biological knowledge and principles are applied or ignored by society, it becomes clear that biological education has failed to meet the general public's need for knowlege. Potential leaders benefit little from the standard course for non-science majors."

Carlson said, "For the (non-science major), knowledge of biology is 'most stimulati.ng when it can be related to other fields such as history, literature, and psychology, to current events or to different philosophical world views. The degree to which we are aware of that need, and the skill with which we can make such connections will often determine the success of such courses."

Carlson offers samplings of topics that he feels would make up a more relevant nonmajors biology course. Examples are prenatal diagnosis, birth control, sexuality, radiation hazards, germ warfare, racism ·and pollution.

However, Anna Kruse , chairperson of the biology department, said that although she feels these are very good topics , they do not fulfill the basic goals of a GER biology course.

Kruse said, "I really don't feel that you can give a GER without fundamentals .

The others (topics) are not fundamentals .

I don't think we should water down the courses ."

Kruse's reasoning is that the biological concepts which are taught are relatively unchanging and basic , while the topics or current events, although relevant to biology, are constantly changing and controversial. Therefore, if the student understands the fundamentals, he will be able to adapt to changes that arise concerning these topics. If he learned only the information on the subject at that time, they will be unable to understand the changes that may occur several years from now. ·

Dr. John DeTurck , professor of biology, said that the limited amount of time that the biology department has to teach such . a loaded course , would cause a problem in trying to combine fundamentals and topical discussion.

DeTurck said that although they try to bring in relevant applications , there are so much basics to be taught first that it takes 90 percent of the time teaching theory. DeTurck said that it would be difficult to turn it around and spend 90 percent on application, as opposed to theory .

Both Kruse and DeTurck offered alternatives to a complete shift in course content from a strictly fundamental one to a seminar-like topical one.

Kruse feels that having the students choose particular topics, and then presenting information on it in the last 15 or 20 minutes of the class lecture or lab, would provide a way to bring in application of the material learned .

DeTurck said that current topics in biology could be dealt with in an open discussion. DeTurck said that a "rap session " in the beginning of class would provide for student input on such topics.

Romano said that the difficulty in combining basic information and topical information is finding the balance between the two.

Romano said , "There are masses of amounts of information in biology. Where do you cut off the amount of (technical) information and begin applying it . This is what we're grappling with now.

Something would have to be sacrificed for time's sake ."

Carlson said, "It is my belief that this much needed reform of biological education involves two aspects of introductory nonmajors courses-their content and their presentation . Failure to consider both may prevent the successful eduaction of liberal arts students , including those among them who will be tomorrow 's leaders."

NICARAGUAfrom1 The people of Nicaragua fear a U.S. invasion, Ferrante said. "I have witnessed the external threat increase," she said. "It has been proven historically that internal problems are in direct proportion to external threat and that has been my own experience.

America has great culpability in the internal problems of Nicaragua ."

"When we issued the statement in i November, it was right after the Granada invasion and expectations were very high that the U.S. would invade Nicaragua," said Sr. Barbara Leonardo, MSC, provincial for the Eastern Province of Missionary Sisters and trustee for the college, while visiting the campus recently.

In addition, the statement on Nicaragua goes along with the mission statement of the Missionary Sisters, said Leonardo. In looking at the situation in a particular area, the sisters examine five elements: development of people, respect for life, dignity of women, catecehsis, and social justice.

According to Sr. Regina Peterson, MSC, coordinator and instructer in social work at Cabrini College, in addition to finding its basis in the American Bishop's pastoral on peace and the mission statement of the sisters, the recent statement was based on feedback that was received from Missionary Sisters in Nicaragua. "We have sisters in Nicaragua who can relate back to us what they see as an escalation of military involvement on the borders." Peterson said.

"Our concern isn't just with the prob_lems in Nicaragua," said Sr. Bernadette , Casciano, MSC, campus minister, who _'was present at the Eastern Province Conference at which the statement was • approved, "Our concern is real because we are an international order and our . sisters are there. We have a family concern."

Many of the sisters in Nicaragua are -citizens of the nation, according to Casciano. Sr. Yolanda Flores, MSC, a 1981 graduate of Cabrini College and also a 'citizen of Nicaragua is among the Missionary Sisters living in Nicaragua, she said. ''There is an advantage in that both . political sides have great respect for our ' sisters," Leonardo said . "During the revolution, our sisters were as neutral as could be. They took care of the sick on both sides."

Leonardo continued in stating that the Missionary Sisters in Nicaragua were started by Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini herself The Missionary Sisters are among the religious groups who have been in Nicaragua the longest, she said.

A list of missions provided by Peterson showed that there are presently two main missions in Nicaragua which are run by approximately 18 sisters. The missions are the Collegio La Immaculada located in Diriamba and Obra Social Madre Cabrini located in Managua. According to the list, the missions provide education, pastoral work, dispensaries and social work. There are additional smaller missions which concentrate mostly on dispensaries and social work Casciano said.

SOPHOMORE/SENIORfrom1 making parties will have a better grasp on how the campus feels and will react towards their dilemma. From the interest and/or lack of interest in this forum, we will have a better basis to go by when evaluating the whole idea and concept of an event such as the Sophomore Senior."

Senior Brian Jensen, who was the president of his sophomore class, suggested that "The sophomore class should engage in major fundraisers for the rest of the semester. The class could make it a campus concern, for example, by putting a thermometer in the cafeteria that would show how much money they have and how much money they need. Administration donations would be nice too."

Jensen added, "I think the tradition of Sophomore/Senior will have to be revaluated in the future. The increase in enrollment over the past few years has created larger and larger senior classes. Therefore, the cost goes up year after year along with the inflation rate." .

Agreeing with Jensen, DiRaddo said, "The Sophomore/ Senior puts tremendous stress .on the sophomore class. I think it's very possible~ will have to revaluate it. But it will have to be after this Sophomore/Senior, because it's too late now to change in mid-stream."

President of the Senior Class Mike Hawley said that the senior class will evaluate the sophomore's finacial situation ~woweeks before the event and give them up to $500, dependmg upon what the sophomores need.

Hawley also feels that the Sophomore/Senior needs to be revaluated. "It's becoming very difficult to raise enough money.

Small dances don't bring in $500 like they use to. It's hard to find a good fundraiser. Maybe seniors should go half price instead of free."

Labenz said, "This might be the year that seniors will have to start paying for part of the ticket."

Jensen does not agree. "I think that at all cost they should keep the tradition of seniors going for free. It should also remain off-campus, so we at least have one off-campus event."

As for alcohol, DiRaddo said, "St. David's won't se·rve anyone under 21 alcohol. In fact, they recently fired some of their bartenders for serving minors."

Labenz explained that the sophomore class willbe handling alcohol control at the Sophomore/Senior. "We will use the bracelet system for people over ii. There will be an open bar for them and an open soda bar for people under 21. (A disc jockey from 'The Pros' is the scheduleded entertainment.)

Apterdefinesphilosophyand relatesit to life

by Lisa D'Ascenzo If you walk through the gathering area in the Widener Center, you will usually spot Andrew Apter sitting. at a table surrounded by a mass of l,ooks and papers, either talking to students, writing or grading papers.

Born in New York City, Apter discovered Cabrini through Dr. Sharon Schwarze, philosophy department chairperson, who was a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania. This is Apter's second year of teaching philosophy at Cabrini.

Profile:

Andrew

Apter

Currently, Apter is in the graduate department of philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania. He teaches at Penn and has also b~en working on his dissertation towards his doctorate in philosophy for the past two years.

Apter's dissertation is concerned with the logic of time and its relationship to certain key issues in metaphysics.

He is also preparing for publication a paper on fictional objects.

After being expelled from four different high schools for talking back to teachers, Apter, 30, eventually went to Vassar and graduated in 1979. "Being thrown out of high schools has been a long tradition in my family," Apter said.

Apter enjoys the people' at Cabrini and has a real concern for getting his students to understand philosophy. "If possible, I would like my students to understand, in a very rough way, that there are abstract issues concerning the nature of God and the world which deserve close scrutiny," Apter s'id.

Excuses,excuses...

Andrew Apter, philosophy instructor, displays a real concern for getting his students to understand

philosophy

'Philosophy is nothingbutan unusually obstinateeffortto thinkclearly,aimingat the logicalclarification of thoughts.'

AndrewApter,philosophist

-

After he completes his dissertation, Apter either wants to seek a full-time teaching position or go for his doctorate in cognitive science or artificial intelligence at Yale or the University ofEdinborough in Scotland. .

When asked to define philosophy, Apter said, "Philosophy is nothing but an unusually obstinate effort to think clearly, aiming at the logical clarification of thoughts."

"A philosopher knocks down houses of cards and leaves nothing standing-its results are the uncovering of one or another piece of plain nonsense or bumps on the understanding. The aim of the philosopher is to show the fly the way out of the fly bottle."

Apter's philosophy of life is somewhat involved. "I suppose you mean: How ought life to be lived? To some degree, this is an inappropriate philosophical question, since philosophy is a descriptive, rather than a prescriptive or normative science."

"It is for this reason that we must renounce the hope that philosophy can promise satisfaction to our mundane desires. What it can do is to help us to understand the several aspects of the world and the logical analysis of concepts. The difference between a good life and a bad one is not a sufficiently abstract difference to come within the province of philosophy."

Apter's students seem pleased with his style of teaching.

"His discussions are very informative and the material we read for class is interesting," one student said. "He is always available if you need help with anything."

Another student said, "His classes are run very informally. He comes across more as a friend than a teacher."

Apter currently lives in Philadelphia. In his spare time, he enjoys going to nightclubs and reading science fiction novels. He frequently goes to New York City, where his family lives. Apter also enjoys playing with his word processor, going out on dates and feeding his goldfish.

Is the road to hell paved with good excuses?

by Rita McKelvey When I started dating my boyfriend it was in the summer. Unfortunately, I still had some extra winter poundage that was still hanging around. Being the vain creature I am, I vowed never to go to the beach with my boyfriend for fear that he would, drop dead at the sight of me in a bathing suit.

I soon found out that this was a hard feat because he asked me to the beach about every day. So, I very quickly and creatively thought up excuses.

I would tell him I had to go shopping, had to do housework, or had already promised my sister I'd go to the beach with her.

My best excuse however was that I had to clean my hamster cage. I gave him that excuse three times-in one week!

Excuses seem to pop up everywhere; especially in college. Stud en ts have excuses for not handing in papers, coming late to class, talking in class, cutting class and not coming prepared with homework or test knowledge. Professors also use excuses. They have excuses for not handing back papers or tests promptly. They have

excuses for being late and excuses for making mistakes in lectures.

The most popular excuses for students handing in papers late are I was sick and couldn't do the paper. This is a good excuse because it appeals to the instructor's sympathy. Another excuse is I just came up with a better thesis and if I handed in my other paper, it just wouldn't be my best work. I'm going to need an extension. This excuse puts the professor on the spot. Will he accept an average paper or will he practice what he preaches and only take the student's best work?

Some other good excuses for late papers are I left the paper in my room, can I just putjt in your box later, there was too much noise in the dorm last night and I couldn't concentrate, I was just not organized enough to complete the paper, or I had an important test on the same day and couldn't fit both in my schedule, or my typewriter broke.

A death in the family is also a good excuse. Another excuse is I didn't think it

was due today, are you sure you assigned it Probably the most embarrassing incifor today? This excuse may stump the oro- dent in class is when a student is caught fessor for a while and make him ttunk he is talking to another student or when a stutemporarily going insane. dent is called on to answer a question and does not know the answer.

Students also make excuses for coming When caught talking in class, a student late to class. Some of these excuses are: My car broke down, the electricity shut off in might say, I was just going over the matethe dorm and my clock stopped, I had a rial, I didn't understand something and he meeting and it ran a little late, I was com- was explaining it to me, or we don't underpleting the homework assignment, I had a stand that word you wrote on the board, · doctor's appointment, or something totally what is it? unrelated to the student; my friend's car When a student doesn't know the broke down and I had to help him. When a student cuts a class, he also makes answer to a question because he hasn't excuses. I had a doctor's appointment is read the homework assignment he might always a good stand in. I had a family say, Could you repeat the question, I didn't emergency , I had four tests to study for, or read that chapter, I answered a different my car broke down and I couldn't get to question, Well, it all depends ..., or Could I answer number three? These excuses save class are all familiar excuses. the student from massive embarrassment.

When a student is not prepared to take a test, he might panic and make excuses in Students are not the only ones who order to take it at another time. He might make excuses. Professors who do not hand say, I had four other tests today and didn't back papers or tests on time also make have time to study, I thought the test was excuses. I left the papers at home, I have on Thursday, I didn't understand all of the not graded everything yet, or there are 30 material while studying, or I went home of you students and only one ofme to grade for the weekend and left my book there. everything are all common excuses.

And the winning number iS... 523!!

cal number may be called, and the campus may enjoy a fleeting moment away from the everyday routine to relax and have fun.

The scene is set ...

During the noon news, the weather forecaster predicts snow. Everyone in the room listens intently.

Of course, he says that he cannot predict what time the snow will start or what is expected for a total accumulation.

The reason he gives is one that is very familiar to anyone who watches the weather on a daily basis. His reason usually goes like this. "The storm is coming here from the west.

If it moves to the north of us, we could get anywhere from 5-20 inches of snow. If the storm moves to the south of our immediate viewing area, we could get a mixture of rain, freezing rairi or even 1-10 inches of snow. I'll be able to give more details at 5 and 6 o'clock."

deciding who will listen to the radio for that magic number, 523.

Maintenance is usually out about 10 p.m., busily plowing and sanding Cabrini's roads. At the same time they are probably dodging snowballs thrown by students who feel that if the school's roads are bad that we'll surely have off.

Around the time that everyone is ready to go to sleep, the snow has tapered off into flurries. Talk turns to the idea that maybe school won't be cancelled after all. Someone says that they will listen to the radio early in the morning for 523, or they will call the switchboard to hear the verdict. If there is no school, the person usually makes signs telling everyone to go back to sleep, and then posts the signs around the dorm. Of course, the person who gets up to find out that there is no school is so excited that she just has to wake up a few friends to tell them.

As usual, the immediate talk of the impending snow begins around campus. Everyone is asking the same ques- , tion. "Do you think we'll have classes tomorrow?" Usually the reply is, "I hope not because I didn't do any homework," or "No, King of Prussia Road is always a mess and no one will be able to get here."

Around 5:30 p.m., the snow is falling heavily and the· weatherman just says, "The snow is falling heavily in the area and it is making the p.m. rush hour seem like a nightmare."

Then-there are the mornings when radio announcers can be heard saying, "And in Deleware County, 520, 521, 522, 524, and 526 are all closed, while 519, 527, and 528 will open two hours late."

By now the cafeteria is noticing that some of their trays

On these mornings, the Cabrini switchboard begins ringing with calls from students who hope that they have just missed hearing 523. They hear the answer that school is op~n.

So, next time you listen to the noon news and the weather forcr-ster is predicting snow, make sure your work is finished for the next day and remember to set your alarms, ·ust in case. And kee ho in that winter isn't over yet.

Currie states CCA status

FEB.

SGA

19B4

,,.

by Robin Larkins

In response to a recent SGA inquiry as to the state of "affairs" of the Council of College Affairs, Sr Eileen Currie, MSC, president of Cabrini College, expressed the intent to maintain the CCA and to better formulate the charge of the standing committee to serve as a more effective forum for the airing of college concerns.

Currie recognizes neect m the couege tor an organization like CCA. Yet better direction for the council has not been formulated.

The president hopes to have the standing committee functioning by the end of the year under revamped charges. Currie aspires to do the reorganization and formulation with some of the council's past members as well as with the senior staff of the college.

Currie stated, "What we need to look at is where things could fit together the best without overlapping, as well as how the organization should function."

Reasons for CCA's temporary disbandment by the president stem from a lack of growth and purpose in the organization's charge. According to Currie, "CCA has grown beyond its original charge. During the last two years, CCA has been floundering with regards to its activities, agenda and overall charge."

In analyzing the structure and history of the CCA, Currie strongly advocates the mix ofrepresentation which existed in the council.

She was quick to point out, however, that the original CCA came before offices, now existing on campus, which handle situations that the council originally dealt with. The entire stu- . dent services sector of the campus is one such area which causes overlap in the department's particular function and the function of CCA within that structure.

"The charge never grew up to accomodate the changing college and its needs, " said Currie.

She continued, "The organization was not as a effective as it had the caliber to be, had the proper direction evolved over the years as the college grew."

24,

"Right now no one knows how·ccA relates tc anyone because of the fact that it didn't grow ru an institution."

In light of the self~evaluat1onprocesses ot tne current Middle States studies of the college, Currie believes that a reflector and mirror is being made available scrutinizing the school.

She stresses however, that it wouldn't be beneficial to the college to continue to function without it. The structure of CCA fits perfectly into an ongoing planning process. The master planning process here at Cabrini must be strengthened in order to give further clarity and direction to the college in all different areas of its scope. According to Currie, "This i~ one of the many things we'd like to accomplisl: through the Middle States evaluatative proces~ as we begin to look ahead."

This lack ot evolution caused the role ot the CCA to become increasingly fuzzy and ineffective as compared with the past. Due to the lack of clear guidelines and charges, the council didn't really facilitate communications as well as it could have, according to Currie.

In further commenting upon the importance and need for an institution such as CCA, Currie cited how an effective CCA could play an integral role in the planning and implementation processes of the college. "Ideally the CCA should act as a reflector for the president, in its advisory role, as well as the college as a whole.

There will always be the need for a free body which consists of a cross section of the campus; to be our mirror," said Currie. vurrie actm1ttea that the vvl\ was not aL Lu~ 1• top of her agenda of things to be taken care of.

She said, "It wasn't on the back burner either.

Rather, it's somewhere in the middle."

Currie revealed that there has been some question as to the status of CCA before SGA's inquiry, but the questionning was not persistent or overwhelming, according to Currie.

The lack of curiousity also signals th at a problem or confusion could exist within the structure of the organiz~tion.

In order to facilitate this need, SGA has already proposed that the J·udicial and conduct organizations (the Resident Conduct Committee, the Non-Resident Conduct Committee, and the SGA Judicial Board), elected through SGA, meet together as one body to review the entire conduct policies of the college and make their recommendations for the revision of the handbook for the next school year.

Cafeteriacrackdown: for students'benefit

by Ann Belsky

Not many students are aware of the fact thal gaining access to the cafeteria by showing proptff identification is college policy Ip. :.W, Cabrini College Student Handbook) , according to Bill Haile, manager of Seilcr's Food Service at Cabrini .

In the past few weeks, a stricter co<le of entrance has been implemented in the cafeteria by the checkers, those who sit at the table and keep the count of those entering the cafeteria and cross off numbers corresponding to those on valid I.D.'s. According to Haile , this checking system began because "we felt that some people coming into the cafeteria were not on the board plan."

Although this may not seem a major crime by most standards, these extra mouths to feed add up to a fair amount of food consumed that must be paid for by the students who are on the meal plan, Haile said .

This is why the sign "I.D.'s must be shown to checkers at all meals" has been taken to the letter. The idea is to keep people out who are not on the board plan . Adding up the intake of these offenders can increase the meal plan for next year. This makes it easy to see why this demand should be strongly stressed.

Many studer{ts complain because they feel that they are known well enough by the checker to "trust" them that they are indeed on the plan and reciting the correct J.D. number . And this may be so. However, the checker is not question- ' ing the student's veracity, he is merely being presented a ticket that enables the student to enter the cafeteria and eat.

Haile explained that this practice of the mandatory presentation of l.D .'s at mealtimes is not indigenous only to Cabrini . In fact, in larger universities, special electronic codings are read from the I.D.'s upon entrance to any campus building. Carrying the I.D. is a necessary convenience , rather than an unpleasant hardship .

When the checking was first started, Haile found that most of the students did carry their I.D. cards, but did not both er to take them out to present them to the checker .

Haile said that no one but ch~onic offenders will be turned away at the door for not having their I.D.'s. "Some people just always forget to them " one checker said .

~tud~nts ~e required to present college 1dentlf1cat1onto gain entrance into the cafeteria. This policy, being enforced at present, has always existed and is stated in the Cabrini College Handbook. Here, Kate Dugan, freshman, presents her I.D. te, junior checker Rosemary Viggiano. (Photo

by John Doyle) When students do not carry their I.D., this means extra work for the checker . They have to get the student's name and look on the master list of everyone on the meal plan to verify that the student is indeed on the plan and has given the correct number .

by Ann Belsky Often the commuter finds himself parking illegally on the grass or double parking because he cannot find anywhere else to put his car and he is already late for class, but he is left with no other alternative .

Commuters believe that this problem of limited parking places in Sacred Heart stems from residents parking in places designated for commuters and the overall need for more parking spaces.

Commuters are permitted to use the lot behind Sacred Heart,

Grace Hall and the lower lot of Woodcrest. Yet, often this is not enough as they must share with the faculty and those residents who choose to leave their cars in these lots .

"There is enough space for everyone to park ," Sr. Regina Peterson, MSC, chairperson of the traffic committee, said. ''The difficulty is in the overlapping time between classes."

This results when commuters leave after their 8:30 classes too late for those with 9:50's to fill their vacated spots and still make it to their class on time .

Many commuters commented that residents were driving their cars up from the houses because it was a long walk. This made the lots even more crowded.

Apologiesto anyone whose name does not appear.

We thank everyonewho contribued in any way to its success.

Peterson said that some residents, the overflow from the Mansion and Counsel, were assigned Sacred Heart to park in, but could also park behind Grace Hall but it seems many prefer the convenience of Sacred Heart.

One solution Peterson offered to commuters was not to give up when looking for a spot to park .

Check all of Sacred Heart and Grace Hall before settling on the grass. Besides being illegal and a cause for ticketing, it can also be dangerous because of overcrowding .

Overcrowding in Sacred Heart parking lot causes problems for commuters. (Photo

Peterson said that some residents were driving their cars up _ to breakfast, but headed to their internship or student teaching before the 8:30 class rush .

The feasibility of a new lot would solve many headaches, however, Peterson said, there are ''budgPt constraints ."

Right now, she urges all _ involved to "be patient." Both residents and commuters have the same rights to the area and if properly parked, there is enough room to accomodate all in most circumstances.

Input or suggestions to the problem can be directed to Peterson, junior Donna Gallagher. student representative to the traffic committee, or at anv of the meetings held the first ¡and third Tuesdays of every month .

Palcik loOksahead to a career in art therapy

by Debbie Kidon Reflecting on her initial feelings of being chosen for Who's Who Among C~lleges and Universities, LorrieAnn Palcik, senior, said, "I was suprised and shocked because I really didn't expect it. I was at my mailbox with Beth Ann, my roommate. The list of those elected was in there and first I saw Beth Ann's name. Then I realized that I had been elected also."

•

Palcik attended Archbishop Pendergast High School. She said, "I really did not think much about college until my senior year of high school. I knew someone who went to Cabrini and I came ·up here for a visit. I liked the school, so I applied here."

Palcik said, "After I had been accepted at Cabrini, I was at lunch one day and I overheard someone say she was going to Cabrini. It turned out to be Beth Ann. We got to know each other, and decided to be roommates. We've been roommates for all four years.

Palcik was originally an Early Childhood and Elementary Education major her freshman year, but changed her major to Studio Art and Psychology during her sophomore year. The reason for the change was because this double major can be used for Art Therapy, which is a way of diagnosing _andtreating problems through art. .

Beth Ann DiMondo, senior, said, "I see Lorrie as a person who is serious when she wants to be serious. She is very committed to her work, but if I've ever needed her, she has always put her work aside to help me. I can trust her. She is the only person who knows everything about me, outside of Dave (Pilla, DiMondo's fiance.) I can tell her anything."

'Newparts of myself have come out of every experience I've had here.'

Lorrie Palcik, senior.

Dave Pilla, senior, a close friend of Palcik's said about her, "Lorrie is a very caring person. She helps everyone in any way she can. She always gives an honest opinion and she never tries to hide anything. She is very active with her classes and activities, but she always makes time for her friends."

Palcik has been very involved during her four years at Cabrini.

She is a member of Psi Chi, the Psychology Honor Society.

She has been involved in Kappa Sigma Omega for three years, with two of them spent holding the offices of secretary and vice president.

Palcik has also been involved in a variety of other extra curricular activities, such as intramurals, SGA dorm representative, an_d a member of the Psychology club .

She has also been involved in such services as the Residency Review Committee, and the Food Committee.

After graduation, Palcik would like to work for an advertising firm and eventually continue her education to obtain her masters in Art Therapy.

Lorrie Palcik, senior, Who's Who recipient, says of her Cabrini experience: "The best thing was learning to deal with myself outside of academics." (Photo by Debbie Kidon)

Palcik ~aid, ''The best thing about Cabrini was learnin to deal with _myself, outside of academics . You come acros! all walks ofhfe here and I've learned to deal with all types of peopl~. New parts of myself have come out of every experience I ve had here."

WHO'SWHO 1984 The second group of profiles in a series covering all of the Who's Who nominees.

DiMondouses skillsto aid lessfortunate

by Susan Baj This profile is intended to focus on Beth Ann DiMondo, senior, business administration major who was recently selected into Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities.

DiMondo's cumulative GPA is 3.91, and her GPA within her major is 4.0. She has been on the dean's list for six consecutive semesters, in the Cabrini College Honor Spciety, and was a Bruckmann Scholar award winner two years.

However, it was not only her academic abilities that considered her for this honor. DiMondo's participation and leadership in academic and extracurricular activities were also important.

DiMondo worked in the CARe program at Cabrini as a tutor in finance and business statistics. From 1981 to 1983, she was the treasurer of Kappa Sigma Omega, Cabrini's service organization, and from 1981 to 1982, she was the newsletter editor for the Council of Exceptional Children.

Beth is also a member of the Society for the Advancement of Management. The above activities also contributed to her citizenship and service in the community as well as at Cabrini.

Outside work experiences also contributed to DiMondo's selection into Who's Who. At present she is employed at M.A.1/Sorbus, Inc., in Frazer, Pennsylvania. She is an assistant to a compensation analyst, responsible for assisting in survey analyses, job pricing, job description questionnaires, job analyses, and various duties relating to compensation analysis.

DiMondo was also a child care counselor at the Melmark Home for the Mentally Retarded, in Berwyn, Pa. She was responsible for the daily care of mentally retarded youth in residential and educational settings.

The Cabrini College theater department also employed DiMondo as a theater assistant, responsible for assisting the theater department chairperson in stage productions, dance classes, mailing projects, and various administrative duties of the theater department.

When asked her personal aspirations, DiMondo said, "I have always enjoyed working with people, most especially those who are less fortunate than I. I have always been inclined to help the mentally retarded most specifically in the business aspect of the helping process." She continued, "I want to incorporate my knowledge of business with my personal instincts and feelings and develop various ways to help those who cannot help themselves."

'I want to incorporate my knowledge of business with my personal instincts and feelings and develop various ways to help those who cannot help themselves.' -Beth Ann DiMondo, senior.

DiMondo said she was very honored upon winning the Who's Who recognition. She also expressed an overall feeling of happiness with her situation in life at the present time. Largely this is due to her recent engagement to Dave Pilla, who is also a senior at Cabrini. When asked about her future plans, she· said, "I am planning a future in either community agency management or a human resource position in a corporate setting.

Cabriniinitiatesnew chapterof Psi Chi

By Susan Baj Cabrini College was one of 23 new chapters initiated into the new Psychology Honor Society, more commonly known as Psi Chi. Psi Chi is a national organization which recognizes people, both graduate and undergraduate, who have been outstanding in their psychology related research and achievements. Overall, the organization has 142,213 members.

Karin Wright, senior, is the president of the Psi Chi chapter at Cabrini. Susan DiGregorio, senior, is the vicepresident.

Dr. M.L. Corbin Sicoli, assistant professor of psychology !)-ndpsychologist at the Rudy Ro~ymans Counseling Center, is the advisor to the chapter of Psi Chi. Twenty-four people were welcomed into the honor society. The initiation ceremony was held last semester in the Widener Center Lecture Hall.

According to Wright, the qualifications or requirements for members include at least 12 credits in psychology courses, along with a major or minor in psychology .

Undergraduate students must rank in the top 35 percent of their class in their general studies ..Students also should be superior in their psychology course studies. Another important requirement of Psi Chi is for members to have high standards of personal behavior.

'I think that the chapter here is stong and will continue to be so. - Karin Wright, president,Psi Chi. There are several advantages of membership in Psi Chi. The more important ones include a recognition of achievement, along with beneficial reference purposes if members would be continuing in graduate studies. There is also an information office where information on jobs in the psychology field are available.

The opportunity to participate in national conventions held and meet other students and professionals in the area is another distinct advantage. Wright also specified student-faculty intervention as an advantage. Psi Chi can help students and the faculty become better acquainted

and share interests in the field of psychology.

Psi Chi is useful because it is not just for undergraduate students, but graduate students as well. There is a lifetime membership fee of$25.

...............

Twenty-fourCabrini studentswere initiatedinto the psychologyhonor society,Psi Chi, last semester in ceremonies held in the Widener Center Lecture Hall.

Psi Chi is different and separate from the Psychology Club. However, most of the members from one organization belong to the other.

Wright asked that whoever would be interested in joining Psi Chi should contact either Sicoli, Anthony Tomasco, chairperson of the psychology department, or herself. The next initiation will be held in the fall of 1984. However, interested students are asked to inquire now.

Wright said, "Psi Chi is meant to get people interested to share ideas and see what is going on in the professional aspect of ~sychology in society."

Goals the Psi Chi chapter at Cabrini hope to accomplish include raising money for scholarships, along with rewards for research papers.

Wright seems to be pleased with the new Psi Chi chapter at Cabrini. "I feel it is a chance for the psychology department to be recQgnized," Wright said. "I think that the chapter here is strong and will continue to be so," she continued .

In searchof gold...

spectrum Philadelphia Inquirer sports columnist, Bill Lyon, tried to emphasize this perspective to his readers in a column entitled "Games should be more than search for gold."

In the article Lyons states the opinion that every four years the Olympics become a crusade. He writes, "This is no longer sport. It becomes a forum for politics and propaganda. It infects eve-..,nation. A triwnph on the ice is somehow translated into a triumph for an ideology, a form of government, a way oflife."

In light of this underlying theme, it could be argued that an event such as the Olympics becomes a mini-war where superiority is determined through the sports competitions. Our athletes become soldiers defending the ideals oftruth,justice and the American way. Not only do they take on the challenge of personal accomplishment and achievement of their own maximum potential, but also the challenge of a nation trying to convince the world that their ways of democracy are better than the ways of communism and other similar forms of government that contradict the principles of our own society.

Then there is the matter of perspective.

The perspective which should shine through above all else was expressed by some of the athletes themselves through their comments to the media during the course of the games .

Bill Koch, cross-country skier commented on perspective: "If 100 people enter a race, that means there have to be 99 losers. The worst thing you can teach a child is that so many of them will be losers, because then they won't even try . And it's the striving, the attempting, the fight that's the important thing."

In essence, anyone who has the courage to compete and goes out there and fulfills the challenge of living up to their best possible potential should experience in one way or another the ultimate "thrill of victory," the person al gold medal of inner achievement.

Lyon concluded, "The most unwelcome intrusion of all in the Olympics has been politics. The appeal of sport is to marvel at athletic grace and skill, and that appreciation should not be flawed with an obsession for gold."

by Robin Larkins The human drama of athletic competition. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.

This is how television audiences throughout the U.S. have been conditioned to view and regard the wide world of sports which is constantly being placed before us by the media world.

There is an underlying theme to all of our forms of competition to "go for the gold" ..."run for the roses" ... "fight to win" ... "win it for the Gipper."

On the other side of the spectrum, we also hear to a lesser extent, "winning isn't everything" (it's the only thing) and "it doesn't matter if you win or lose" (until you lose).

In a year of the Olympics and times of multi-million dollar sports contracts for the nation's top professional athletes, and days where a ticket to a major sporting event can easily run over $20, it seems that this perspective of all-encompassing competition is emphasized even further . After all, everyone loves a winner. (And people will not pay to see a loser.)

But what about the losers. (Do we even have the right to call anyone that?) Just exactly who are the losers?

Are they all the teams or individuals who by statistics and mathematic calculations did not achieve the highest grade. What's the difference between a team or individual who's 51100th of a second or a point behind the leader or 50.points behind? Nothing , right? Nei!. ther won. It seems as though this is a dominant attitude that is circulating today.

I was watching the Olympics during the first week of competition when the United States was tied for 21st (and also 42nd) in the overall standings a time when the U.S. team hadn't even achieved a single medal.

One female athlete, disappointed in her loss at the games, commented, "Years of training, of hard work, gone just like that. It's terrible ... I am 16th and broken-hearted."

Needless to say, the United States recovered from their first week slump to emerge in the end with a respectable medal count.

But is that all that will emerge in the end, a medal count? It seems that there is a need to put the whole endeavor into perspective.

Performingarts in America viewing. The students recieve a list of suggested programs each month and they must view a certain number of them and write a summary of each."

by Beth Daly The fine arts department is currently offering_ a class whose very schedule is dependent upon the cultural events of the season. The class is entitled performing arts in America, and is instructed by Adeline Bethany, chairperson of the fine arts department.

The class is an introduction to selected performing media in America today. Particular emphasis on Broadway musical theater, opera, and ballet. Reading, lecture , and discussion center on live and television performances, and analyses of critical reviews.

The students are exposed to various types of plots, melodramatic , for example.

"The class helps set up expectations so the students can respond when they are questioned; they are more responsive," said Bethany. There are no tests , but responses , comments, and reports are important.

According to Barbara Bruhin, junior, "The class exposes me to things I may never have tried to experience before. For example, operas and symphonies. The class is not all book-work. You learn by seeing and experiencing."

Certain activities have required attendence . For example, the Zero Moving Dance Company, and other campus events.

The class will attend the Geoffrey Ballet on April 14.

Bethany commented, "This is the third or fourth time this course has been offered (it is offered every other ye·ar). The students learn to experience the arts around them. " "I learn what musical events are going to be scheduled for the coming semester. I have arranged for my students , to attend them ."

"The students need some form of background before seeing the shows. They look in newspapaers for previews and reviews, and the have required reading and t. v.

"This class is a cultural experience. The students are investigating an area they may not have known about before."

According to Bethany, "The events the class is scheduled to see is . open to modifications."

Elena Santoliquito, freshman, commented, "I like the class. It 's an exposure course. We go to plays and operas and we have to attend a certain amount of activities."

Bethany commented, "The class helps to broaden the student's horizons, to explore . new tastes . Tastes change as we grow older, and we should be open to accept new ideas as well educated liberal arts graduates."

Performingarts programneeds yourtale~t

by Beth Daly Even if you were never the star of your school play, or if singing in the shower was the extent of your musical career, the performing arts program is a chance for you to express your hidden talents.

The Cabrini College theatre is currently offering this program on Saturdays, and will also sponsor an arts camp this summer. .

According to source material the program is, "a unique environment in which young people and professsional teacherartistsjoin in an informal campus setting. Students are encouraged to actively participate in a wide variety of art forms through which they can gain enrichment in the arts while forming new friendships."

The arts program is under the artistic management of Daniele A. Perna, theater director. Perna commented that the program, "is a memory never to be forgotten ."

The summer arts and Saturday classes provide various types of programs, amon~ which are drama, arts and crafts, juggling, and different types of dance.

The camp, according to Perna, "makes them (the participants) aware of what they can do."

Cyndi Lauper: UnusuallyUnusual!

by Judy Buck The new album by Cyndi Lauper, "She's So Unusual," is just what it says, unusual. It's anything but monotonous, dry, boring or clic~e, like so many other rock artists' music.

Lauper's "Girl's Just Want To Have Fun," written by Phildelphian Robert Hazard is now, according to ·"The Album Network," (a radio retail and video magazine) the seventh most requested song in the country. The album , according to the magazine, is number 11 among the hottest sales nationwide.

Lauper certainly entertains, amuses · and captures the listener on this album .

Her style is rock & roll, punk, a bit disco.

Her style is hot and unique, which enraptures the listener.

There are many potential hits on the album . "Time After Time," in which Lauper recorded with Rob Hyman of the Philadelphia Hooters is an excellent cut.

The tune is superb in sound, I feel it will definately reach the charts by April. The song already has received an ample amount of air-play on Philadelphia stations like WYSP 94, WIOQ 102, and WWSH106FM. For Lauper's first album, she has done a fine job, although she needs to work on the ~ind of sound she wants to portray with her squeeky, romantic and wild voice. One could say this adds variety to her album, but it may be overwhelming for listeners who enjoy consistency.

Creditsoutside of school

by Bonnie Zischang To attend college and hold down a parttimejob is tough .

But it seems harder for someone who is a full-time worker to take time out to go to school, since their job must remain their first priority.

If you are a Burroughs employee, how fortunate you are to be offered a break .

Now you can enroll in on-site courses and earn undergraduate credits in accounting , business administration , and computer science through Cabrini College and the New After Hours program.

Cabrini College will issue credits for courses taught at Burroughs facilities .

Some of the courses that will be offered for the &pring, 1984 semester are Personnel and Organizational Behavior, Accounting Principles I, and Programming/BASIC I. Each of the courses will esrrn 3 credits from Cabrini College.

Patricia Watts, Coordinator of Special Programs in the Continuing Education Department commented , "This cooperative relationship confirms by belief that educational institutions and corporations are capable of forming innovative partnerships, of talking to one another and working together, " said Watts .

The purpose of the After Hours program is to provide a convenient forum for Burroughs people to acquire new careerrele vant skills and knowledge and the opportunity to earn a Certificate or undergraduate degree.

Watts said that she worked closely with Julie Luckraft, After Hours Program Manager at Burroughs Corporation for 12 months negotiating a suitable agreement .

"Ms. Luckraft shares a similar philosophical base . Our working relationship has been not only pleasant but enormously challenging and rewarding ."

Luckraft described After Hours as technical and nontechnical training programs offered to all Burroughs corporations in the area. When asked why she chose to work with Cabrini, Luckraft repli_ed, "Cabrini was receptive to working with us to develop certificate and undergraduate programs without dicatating."

Two other -Universities affiliated with Burroughs Programs are the University of Pennsylvania offering Graduate Professional Development Seminars and Villanova University, offering a Graduate Program in Computer Science.

"The courses will be different every semester, depending on instructors and attendants. It will continue according to the needs of the participants," said Luckraft. "I am interested in getting Burroughs employees a better education," she continued.

Watts feels that if the program proceeds at the current rate of success, not only courses could be offered at Burroughs, but various exciting new programs could also develop such as internships and career opportunities for Cabrini graduates .

Most of us arrived at 8:30, two and a half hours before the Ticketron was to open .

The performer was Billy Joel and the tickets sold out in a matter of two hours.

For our trouble, we ended up with tickets that were almost behind the stage for the Feb. 13 Spectrum show.

Was it worth it? Well, that depends on the individual, but as far as the show itself goes, there can't be many complaints . Billy Joel puts on a performance that is much more than just singing . Let's just say, ·he really knows how to "ham it up" and see that you have a good time.

The show started out slowly with several ballads. Joel sat at his black piano during this time, talking occasionally between songs. Oddly enough, his third song was "Piano Man," the song that shot Joel to stardom back in 1973. Usually, the super hits are saved for the end of the show.

Soon though, he was on the other side of the stage doing the song, "Pressure" on a piercingly loud organ. Apparently this was all Joel needed to get his energy flowing.

The songs ranged from Joel's latest hits "Innocent Man" and "Uptown Girl" to such oldies as "Italian Restaurant" and "Big Shot." But every song was greeted with

unfamiliar songs that many people don't know from the albums.

To add "a touch of Philadelphia," Joel did a short onehanded piano solo of "Rocky's Theme." Of course the audience went crazy with hometown pride, as they also did when Joel sang his song of the industrial boom gone bad, "Allentown."

distant sounds of helicopters. These sound effects began to grow louder and louder, leading into the song. There were also several back-up singers on the stage swaying to the song, with their arms locked together, giving a very somber feel to the song.

These back-up singers also played their

song.

Then there were the several stage crew members, who donned Mexican sombreros, shook maracas and clapped their hands in rhythm to "Don't Ask Me Why.'' It seemed as if part way into the concert, the audience was just let loose. While in the beginning the ushers were holding everybody at a distance, they soon let the crowd right up to the stage.

This was all that a couple of eager fans needed as their cue to jump up on the stage. One girl got a kiss and one guy got to dance on Joel's piano before the security guards coula get to them and haul them off the stage.

His last two songs were "Captain Jack," a slow, but powerfully done song , and finally the fast and fun "Only The Good Die Young," which had mostly everyone up and dancing.

Joel was able to overcome the concert routine of just singing and jumping around, to give everyone a good laugh and a good time.

This is the second year Schneider has organized intramurals. "I want each year to be -better than the previous year. This year it seems as if the intramurals are going in the right direction, although, my biggest complaint is student involvement.

Schneider stated, "We don't have a major problem when it comes to intramurals but it seems as if no one knows if the school wants a two month program or an eight month program.
