OCs canned in wake of alcoholscandal by Kimberly Sheldron editor in chief
Six orientation counselors were fired from the staff after the second orientation. According to sophomore Allyson Hannigan, one of the six fired OCs, the firingstook place due to the fact that Dr. HeidiLevine, orientation adviser and director of counselingservices,andseniorKelly McDonald, student coordinator of orientation, heard that OCs were drinking during the second orientation. The followingstudentswere fired from the staff: sophomoresAllyson Hannigan, Lisa Mininno and Beth Stanbach,andjuniors John Lindsay, Kathy Malone and Rob Marish. Levine was responsible for the firings. However, she would not confirm the reasons. "I'm not out to hurtpeople. What happenedinvolvedus and is settled," Levine said. "It will stay there." When asked to confirm th~ firings, Levine said, "We lost some people from the staff." McDonaldsaid she stoodbehind Levine.
The Monday following the second orientation,six OCs were asked to report to Levine and McDonald. According to Marish, he was asked at this time whetherhe was drinking alcohol during the second orientation. "I saidyes,I had a few drinkswith myself in my car. I drank by myself andI witnesseda few peopledrink. I had one or two drinks with some people,"Marish said. "I said it, and then they [Levine and McDonald) fired me." "She [Levine]said I was to be let go because, even though she didn't knowthe truth,she did not feel comfortable keeping me on the staff," Hannigan said. Each OC received a handbook, which included an outline of the student-lifealcoholpolicy. According to the policy, students under the age of21 arenotpermittedto possess or consumealcoholicbeverages.But students of legal age are not prohibitedfromlawfullypossessingor consuming alcohol in designatedareas. Therefore, students are not permitted to consume alcoholicbeverages
in public areas on campus. Additionally, according the policies, the collegeconsiders"intoxication,disorderlinessor offensivebehaviorresulting from the use of alcoholic beverages subjegt to disciplinary action." The policy also states that Woodcrest Hall and Xavier Hall, where OCs and incoming students are permittedto stay during orientation,areconsideredto be "substancefree facilities." Levine said there is an expectation that orientation counselors are role models. She said that there is a safetyissue involvedin the roleof an brientationcounselor. "There's an expectationthat they are goingto be rolemodels. Because of thosethings,therearecertainthings that aren't acceptable,"Levine said. . "It's made very clear to all the OCs during trainingthat if those OCs are going to engage in those behaviors, they are going to be removed." Lindsay and Malone refused to comment, while Minnino and Stanbachneverrespondedto numerous attempts to contact them.
Three new majors have been approvedby the faculty,administration and the board of trustees. The majors,whichincludegraphic design,financeand sportsscience, will take effect this semester. The graphic design major, which is part of the English,communicationsand fine art division, is designedto preparetoday's students for the graphicdesignworkplace of tomorrow. "What's excitingaboutit is that our state-of-the-art Macintosh computers allow students to engage in this major with hands-on experience," Dr. Thomas Boeke, provost and academicdean, said. "With the addition of graphic design it gives our students another opportunityto explorea careerpossibility." The use qf multimediaallows students to explore the future of graphic design. "I look for this program to really take off," Boeke said. According to Boeke, Don Dempsey, assistant professor of graphic design,presentedthe new graphic design major and was the driving force behind the development of it. The total creditsfor the graphic design major are 49. Some required classes include computer publication design, photography, multimediadesign and digital imaging. Students who wish to minor in graphic designare required to take 21 total credits in the department. The finance major is one of severalbusinessareasavailabl~to students. It preparesstudentsfor a professional position in a variety of financialareas includingbanking,stockbrokers,investmentmanagementandinsurancecompanies. According to John Heiberger,assistant professor of business administration, a degree in finance will also be useful in economic development. He said one of Philadelphia'sstrengthsis frnance. "This specific major is being offered because there has been a large show of interest from students," Heibergersaid. Manycoursesrequiredfor businessadministration arealsci required for finance.

microeconomics and macroeoonomics,principlesof insurance and money and banking are requiredfor thisnewmajor. Thethirdnewly-approvedmajor, sports science, is a sciencebased major that provides students with training for careers that followthe presentand future trends for health awarenessand wellness. This program focuses on exercisephysiologyas a preventativedisciplineto maintaining good health,posture,aerobic conditioning, cardiovascular stamina, muscle flexibility. and control, nutrition,athletics, balance,humananatomyand physiology and physical fitness. Accordingto Anna Kruse,associate professorof biology, the program has not had a chance to take off because it was just approvedin May. Counselorshave not had a chance to recruit students,but they will beginrecruiting this fall. Kruse said it is the way to go for the future. . "Therewill be a greatdemand for studentswho graduatein this major because of the number of healthand fitnesscentersthat are popping up," Kruse said. "Hospital stays are much shorternow so there will be great demandfor health centers. These students will notbe physicaltherapistsbut they will be able to assist physical therapists." This major prepares students foropportunities inhealthcare,corporate fitness,communityhealth andexerciseprogramming,andpersonaltraining. AccordingtoBoeke, studentstake foundationcourses, such as biologyand chemistry,in their first two years. As juniors students begin to take specific sports-sciencecourses. The total requiredcreditsfor this major are 71. As for the addition of even more new majors in the near ruture, Boeke does not think there will be a huge increase. "It makes little sense for a college our size to have a huge number of majors," Boeke said. However,accordingto Boeke, new majorsare possibleand will be investigatedfor the graduate level. But therewillbe no moves •toward these new majors until theproperresearchhasbeendone.

PERSPECTIVES
[gditorial
Knowwhen to say when There is a time and a place for everything. When a student takes on the responsibility of becoming a campus leader, thereby becoming a liaison between the students and the administration, certain sacrifices must be made. Should a campus leader exhibit questionable behavior during any campus event when the leader ought to be setting an example for others? This issue must be addressed by the campus community immediately. . Following the second summer orientation, six orientation counselors were fired for allegedly violating the college's alcohol policy. The alcohol policy was written and approved by' students. It states that "students under the age of 21 are not permitted to possess or consume alcoholic beverages." The policy also says that drinking is prohibited "in public areas on campus including the common areas of the residence houses or Xavier and Woodcrest Halls." When a student enters into a contract with the college, and becomes a campus leader, they are expected to uphold and enforce the guidelines of the school. Although underage drinking exists on campus; and might be relatively hard to curtail, a person of college age should. have the mental capacity to know when and where to socialize with friends and when to assume responsibilities delegated to them. It all comes down to knowing when to say when and realizing that becoming a student campus leader, although it looks impressive on a resume, is a serious responsibility.

Letters to the editor
It is time for some serious change Gerri Brauckmann, Adult&
My name is Gerri Brauckniann, I am a continuing education student, somewhere in my third year at Cabrini. We know that feeling right, " Somewhere in my ? year!" Sometimes it seems so confusing to be an adult continuing education student, especially dealing with the administration at Cabrini. There are a lot of people at Cabrini who are adamant about making changes in the operation of daily business. ( Did I hear a few grunts, grumbles and snickers?) It's okay, I did the same thing not too long ago when I was invited to talk to the administration. I thought "Yeah right, they'll give me the old run around!" Well, let me tell you, I was wrong. There are movers and shakers in the administration.Those who want to see change and fast. However, your input is needed as to what we like and don't like and yes, be candid. I know you
have complaints because theyhave been voiced them to me and to others many times. A lot of work needs to be done in order to make Cabrini's program what is should be. But, the college cannot do it alone. Are you disgusted with the treatment that you receive from your advisers? Tired of having them tell you that they do not know the answers to your questions? Tired of being mis-advised? Are you confused about where you are heading with your education? Are you tired of the business office badgering you for money? How about being sick to your stomach about the tuition increase all for the sake the sports complex? The sports complex-HA!!! Do we really need a sports complex or care about it? Instead, what about getting new updated books in the library? Updating the computer lab with programs better than Quattro Pro (after all no one in the business world uses Quattro Pro)? What about buying air conditioners that work? How about more parking or even better lighting on campus. So, why plug money into a sports
complex? I bet more than half the students enrolled w-ho are both full-time and part-time did not choose Cabrini for its sports! Are you disgusted with your educators? Is there any thing particular that you would like to be addressed? Do you hate the course offerings? Are there any that you would particularly like to see offered? Well, speak up about what you like about Cabrini and who you are. We are not just numbers! We have every right to be heard! We need to implement change! I think that what this student body needs is a voice for the people and if I am willing to provide that voice, why can't you. So why not call today and schedule an appointment with the administration and/or adult and continuing education office. And don't tell me that you go to Cabrini only a few nights a week. You are, after all, paying over $618 a course for your education and shouldn't that money be used for your benefit. After all, you are your own best investment.Well then speak up and then speak up loud. We need to be heard and taken seriously. Its about time you did something for yourself.
If there is a idea, thought or topic you would like to discuss with the Cabrini community, please submit it to Loquitur for all to appreciate. Letters should be signed and the authorship must be known to the editors. However, the writer may choose to have his or her name witheld with the consent of the editor. Do you have a story that you would like to share? Well here is your chance to be heard voicing your opinion. Opinions should be discussed with the editor one week in advance of publication, preferably by noon on the Wednesday preceeding publication. Questions may be addressed to Kathy Cephas at extension 8412. All comments are welcome.

House Two opens to residents Tt;mporary inconvenience, permanent improvement by Jamie Latshaw copy editorI writing coach
It looked like a battlefield, only there were no grenades or tanks. Instead of fallen soldiers, the ground was strewn with hammers and nails. Now, the war is drawing to a close and clean up is about to begin. Renovations on the Dixon House, otherwise known as House Two, are almost complete. Residents began moving in on Monday, Sept. 28. Originally, the construction to the house was set to begin in late April of last spring. By mid-May, ground was broken and predictions were made for its completion. August 18 was the target date. "There were some unanticipated issues, mainly handicap accessibility," John Barclay, vice president for finance and administration, said. One week late, the township approved the house for occupancy on Friday Aug. 25. "One week late is not bad for construction," Barclay said. The house holds 68 students and provides study lounges, a study niche and a meeting room, as well as a living room and a kitchen. There remain unfinished issues with the house. As of Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 29, five bathrooms were in working order. That is one bathroom for every 13.6 people. Fortunately, the number of working bathrooms increases daily. There is no carpeting in the hall-
New
ways. The study lounges, kitchens, living rooms and meeting rooms are in need of paint, carpeting and furniture. However, each individual room is finished, including paint, carpeting and furniture. At the early hour of 7 a.m., the construction crews begin to arrive. • The power tools are plugged in ar: J the noise begins. More crews arrive, the noise intensifies and residents begin to wake up to a cruel form of an alarm clock. "The noise bothers me," senior Rich Grace, one of the new resident assistants in the house, said. "Our main concern is the bathrooms and the general dirt from the construction," senior Mindy Piekutowski said. Piekutowski and her roommate, sertior Jana Bruno, were disappointed when they saw the condition of the house. "Our assumption was that it was going to be completely finished by move-in," Bruno said. "We're paying almost $7,000 to live in a mess." Bruno and Piekutowski said they would be happier living in Kingswood apartments or in a hotel until the house was completely ready for move-in. "Initially, I think they should have found alternate living plans since the main construction wasn't complete," Grace said. Resident life is predicting three to four weeks before the construction crews move off of Cabrini's campus. "I'm excited about the whole new project Cabrini is taking on," Grace said. "Another three to four weeks and this place will be immaculate."

Residential Boulevard is still suffering from the summer of battles. "There's a couple of problems with Residential Boulevard," Barclay said. As a condition to renovate the house, the township is requiring new storm drain pipes that will prevent water from Residential Boulevard from flowing onto Eagle Road. In addition to the pipes, Residential Boulevard needs 18 inches of stone and sheeting to give it more strength. Previously, the base of Residential Boulevard consisted only of top soil which was too weak and provided poor support. "That is probably why Residential Boulevard was in· such poor shape," Barclay said. In two to three weeks Residential Boulevard is expected to be complete. There will be increased parking along Residential Boulevard. "The township required one [parking spot] for every three [people]," Barclay said. "We are adding one for every two." This increase will provide an additional 20 to 25 parking spots along Residential Boulevard. The summer of 1996 will bring more additions to Cabrini. "There is a possibility of a new dorm or an addition to House Five," Barclay said. The sports complex is to break ground in the spring of 1996 and there is a possibility of renovating Sacred Heart Hall during the summer months in 1996.

father's (Giancarlo Giannini) reaction. She needs a "really big favor" in the worse way. Enter Reeves, a '90s cinema sex symbol guaranteed to sell tickets. The kindhearted Sutton agrees to masquerade as her husband in front of her family, with the understood agreement that after only one night, he will continue on his journey and that she will tell her parents he has abandoned her. Yeah right! This is, after all, a love story. From the very beginning, the elements of a blossoming love were floating all over the scenery - in this movie. The flick is complete with a breathtaking Spanish-style mansion and a classic grape-stomping scene. Add a wise yet meddling old grandfa~
th~r (Anthony Quinn), and before one can say "Hollywood cliche," the pseudo-couple fall in love. Go figure! But, as we would soon like to forget, our dream beau· is promised to another, therefore adding a genuine plot twist to the movie. Directed by Alonso Arau ("Like Water For Chocolate"), there were some genuinely beautiful cinematic moments in the film. I am finding it hard to admit, but even this love-story cynic was touched by some of the poignant scenes. This movie is totally intended , with its passionate stares and stolen glances, to set women swooning. "A Walk in the Clouds" does deliver. Reeves actually portrayed Sutton with an uncanny element of reality (there were no signs of
"Ted" from "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" to be seen in this movie) and Sanchez-Gijon had the audience waiting on the edge of the chairs, literally, to see if she would make her true feelings for the mysterious soldier known. So all in all, the movie really was not a total flop. Granted, it will not make the world a warm and fuzzy place for all eternity, but it is a pretty acceptable "date" movie. Out of a possible five stars, "A Walk in the Clouds" receives three stars; mostly deserved for the way Keanu Reeves set my heart aflame.

Women's lacrosse readies for first year by StephanieCaldwell
-
co-sportseditor Who says miracles do not happen? A goal that once seemed lost forever has finally been reached. A women's lacrosse coach has been named by athletic director John Dzik. The doubts were not coming from Dzik himself, but more so from the female population on campus. Nevertheless, Jackie Neary has been named the head coach of the women's lacrosse program at Cabrini. The Lady Cavaliers will be: gin as a club team in the spring of 1996. According to Dzik, five games are scheduled with the possibility of playing as many as 10. The Lady Cavs' first opponents include: Eastern College, Beaver College, GwyneddMercy College, Cedar Crest College and Widener University. Neary is a former Brine AllAmerican lacrosse player, who was an assistant coach for Temple University's women's lacrosse program from 1991 through 1994. Neary spent last year officiating lacrosse rather than coaching it, but she chose to return to coaching simply because she missed it. "I just missed interacting with the girls," Neary said. Neary has also coached on the high-school level, serving as head coach of the Ridley Senior High School girl's lacrosse team in the spring of 1987. She has also been Ridley's assistant field hockey coach since the fall of 1991 and head coach in the fall of 1986. Neary said she is looking forward to starting the women's lacrosse program at Cabrini. There have been many signs of interest from students, some with much experience and others with little or no experience at all. This does not intimidate Neary. "J'm looking forward to meeting all the girls," Neary said, "and making the game familiar to those who are not familiar with it." The Lady Cavs will make their debut as a spring sport. However, Neary is hoping to have some practices this fall. She hopes to build Cabrini's women's lacrosse program into a competitive team within two or three years. "I don't think there will be any problems getting this program off the ground," Neary said. Anyone interested in playing for the first Lady Cavs lacrosse team can contact Neary through the athletics office.

Cabrini hosts children's summer sports camp by Jt,stin Mirigllani co-sports editor
Eventhoughtheschoolyearendedin 111id-May, the Cabrini campus was far from empty. Cabrini was the sight for the first year of Coaches' Choice sports camp. Coaches' Choice is an instructional sports camp for boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 15. There are 17 different sports offered to these children at the camp. Throughout the summer, various pro• fessional coaches and athletes are invited to the camp to share their expertise with the children. The list of local sports celebrities include some big names. The corporate spokesperson for the camp is Rod Brind' Amour of the Philadelphia Flyers. Others who have attended the camp consist of _Brind' Amour's teammates Kevin Dineen and Dominic Roussel. Former Broad Street Bullies have attended the camp as well. Bob Kelly, Bill Barber and Bernie Parent have all spent·time at the camp helping with the camp's hockey program. . Appearances have gone beyond just hockey players. Former Philadelphia Eagles players Harold Cai'michael and Vai Sikahema have made appearances at the camp. Local college basketball coaches such as Fran Dumphy and Speedy Morris have been on hand to help out in teaching the finer points of basketball to the campers. The camp leaders did not have to look too far to find those interested in helping out this year. There was a lot of participation in the camp this summer by both Cabrini students and coaches
alike. Cabrini tennis coach Reggie Day, track coach Tom O'Hora, softball coach Jim Hedtke, and lacrosse coach Randy Mills and newly-appointed field hockey coach Lisa Krsolovic all helped the camp get off the ground this summer. Junior Jen Wiederwax and sophomore Dan Dotsey were just. two of several Cabrini students who were of service this summer. Coaches' Choice was started by Joe Weber and Les Weiser. "I told him I was interested in a sports camp," Weber said. "He had the idea in his drawer. We were on the same page. We refined the program and put it together." A typical day at Coaches' Choice camp consists of two major periods. The first half is pure instruction. In the second half, the children play a game which is centeretl around the previous instruction. The children are given a full lunch each day. Then there is a 15 to 20 minute talk by whoever the professional athlete is that day. The talk is usually based on discipline needed in sports and teamplay concepts. The camp is then split up into groups. While the first group swims, the second group plays recreational sports. The groups switch and. the long day comes to a close. Because Coaches' Choice is a weekby-week camp, parents have the option of signing their children up for one to nine weeks. There is also a day-care program for children of working parents. Besides the outside help the camp has received this year, their staff is very strong within. Along with their counselors, there are four adult supervisors at the camp. Ttie adult supervisors have all had a strong track record when it comes to dealing with
children. Most of them have spent time as coaches, teachers or counselors at local schools. Mitchell, the camp's director who goes by only his first name, expressed his enjoyment for the camp. "I think it is wonderful," Mitchell said. "I think the kids really enjoyed it. One of the most important things is the kids want to learn. What we are all about is education." The camp has had tremendous success in getting big-named celebrities to make guest appearances at the camp. "With the ins that we have, they know who we are," Weber said. "We are able to call them up and get dates. The guys like Rod Brind' Amour are interested in the kids. They are really good motivators and good role models." One such role model who attended the camp was former Flyer Bob "the Hound" Kelly.
"I.love it every time I come," Kelly said. "It gives me a nice break. I love being around the kids." When the summer ends, the camp continues to move forward. • The Coca-Cola company, one of the sponsors of the camp, is helping Coaches' Choice start an outreach program. With the program, the camp will be offered in the poorer neighborhoods in the Montgomery, Delaware and Philadelphia counties for children who otherwise could not afford to attend. The camp also has an ice-hockey program which is offered in the winter at Viking Rink in King of Prussia. The ice hockey program, like the camp, has former and current Flyers attending to help teach the children. Those involved with the sports camp are looking forward to a long relationship with Cabrini.

Tennis anticipates tough, successful season. by Allyson Hannigan managing editor
The keys to the success of the women's tennis team are dedication, work and sacrifice, according to coach Reggie Day. Last year the women finished 10-3 overall and 7-1 in the conference. With strong seasons in the past, Day said it will be a challenge to repeat. However, part of his coaching style relies on the fact that each season is new and the team's record begins at 0-0. Even so, Day is only 16 wins short of winning 300 matches as the tennis coach
at Cabrini. "The team's strength is in the depth," Day said. The team only lost one player due to graduation. The team will have three returning s.eniors: Maura Wiswall, Patti Hillis and Kim Scarborough, who s~are the title of co-captain along with Donna Schaeffer, a junior.

over rate and it is great that Day is recruiting players this year. "I am looking forward to this year," Wiswall said. Wiswall said she also hopes that now that Mark Smith, assistant coach, has a year of experience under his belt at Cabrini, that the team will go further with his help and experience. Wiswall would also like to see all the women reach inside themselves and get all they can out of their game, while growing with their tennis skills. Casinelli said the women are playing to wirr as a team . "The team is excited and lo.oking forward to playing, but we know we will have a tough season," Casinelli said. "Day is a tough guy but he keeps you challenged and he cares about his players." This year the team hopes to win the Pennsylvania Athletic Conference championship since last year they fell short placing second behind Marywood. The team's format changes over each season in hopes to get the best combinations and playing abilities, according to Day. According to Donna Schaeffer, the team got off to a slow start but this year they are going full force. "Personally, it will be difficult to beat last year's record of being undefeated," Schaeffer said, "but I won't be disappointed if I don't go undefeated again this season." Schaeffer is also looking forward to the incoming first-year recruits and she
hopes they stick with it. "Day is tough, but if you really love the game, you will stick with it," Scheaffer said. The incoming first-year recruits are Michelle McDevitt, Lisa Sammaritano and Regina Lamberti. Sports camp started Aug. 25. They had three sessions a day. The goals for the players at camp are to begin developing their strengths and weaknesses. They will continue working to improve throughout the season. "It will be a grueling time for them," Day said. According to Day, the players are very committed. The season officially begins Sept. 7 at Philadelphia School of Textile. Cabrini will also be playing against two new non-conference teams, Lebanon Valley and Gallaudet. The team also has two tournaments that help give the team national exposure. In the spring the team will go to· Hilton Head, N.C. to play upper-division teams. Also, last year was the first time Cabrini received an invitation to the Rolex tournament, which is held at Swarthmore College. At this time, the top three to four players are sent to play. The team has a strong schedule with 17 competition dates not including the PAC championships. Cabrini hosted the PAC championships last year and will again this year.
