Dobelle And Faculty Respond From Israel

Israeli Prime Minister AssasinatedBY DANA PROYECT &MATTHEW PRINCEOpinion Editor & Publisher

"They say: Whether our livesand our deaths were for peace and anewhope, orfor•nothing,wecannotsay; it is you who must say this ...They say: We leave you our deaths,give them their meaning," —Prime Minister Rabin, UnitedStates Congress in Washington,D.C. on July 26,1994.

Trinity College wasshocked by the news of IsraeliPrime Minister Yitzhak Rabin'sassasination this last weekend.Rabin was shot by an Israeli ex-tremist on Saturday, November4th at a peace rally in Tel Aviv.Rabin was the first Prime Minis-ter of Israel to be born in Israel.He was a great general leadingthe Israeli Defense Force (IDF)through the Six Day War. Rabinwas not only an apt militaryleader, he was able to make thetransition from leading the Is-raeli people through war topeace.

Several members of the•p • . , .

Dobelle, who attended the con-ference, spoke of theassasination, "I see the peopleof Israel and many foreign lead-ers mourn for the loss of thePrime Minister. This act, thismoment in history that pit Is-raeli against Israeli, seems vir-tually impossible to compre-hend. There is little I can say, soI have been listening out of re-spect and expressing my deepempathy for what I see. Howsad a commentary on the worldtoday that leaders must fear notonly the wrath and hatred ofenemies but of their own peopleas well."

Ironically, the conferencewas dealing with the issues offundamentalism and democ-racy in the Middle East. Dobellerelated a story, "While we werein the Jewish Quarter, an eld-erly man approached me andasked if I was an American. Ianswered that I was, and heasked why I was here. I told himsome colleagues and I were herefor a seminar on religion andpolitics, to which the man re-sponded, 'Welcome to Jerusa-

coordinator of Middle EasternStudies, who was also at the con-ference in Israel said, "This isIsrael's first true crisis as a na-tion, for Israel has discovered itsreal enemy is not some externaldark force but is seething fromwithin. In a perverse sort ofway, Israel entered the ranks of20th-century democracies Sat-urday night. Political assassi-nation has stained the history ofmany democracies—the UnitedStates. . .comes most immedi-ately to mind. Israel has nowjoined the club."

Back at Trinity, studentsand faculty held a candle lightvigil and memorial ceremony inthe Rose Garden, Monday, No-vember 6th, in Rabin's honor.Appromixately 90 people at-tended to pay their respects. Theceremony was lead by JonathanEpstein '97, a member ofTriPAC, Trinity 's organizationof ATP AC (American Israeli Pub-lic Affairs Committee). He spokebriefly, giving listeners informa-tion about Rabin and hisachievements.

SGA President Sadik-KhanThreatened With ImpeachmentBY K. MICHAEL DERBY &MATTHEW PRINCENezvs Writer and Publisher

The Student Governmentmeeting on Monday, Novem-ber 6, initially appeared to befollowing a normal routine. In-stead, after a lengthy debate ona bill by Vice President of ofFinance Jim Moodie '96, themeeting turned to'a debate onwhether ornot to impeach SGAPresident Karim Sadik-Khan'96. When the night was over,the senate passed an over-whelming vote of "no confi-dence" on the president. Sadik-Khan received only 18% sup-port in the 3-14 vote.

In response, Sadik-Khanresponded, "I don't have muchfaith in this Vote of Confidence.. If I respected these people

and cared about wha t they saidthen I might be upset."

Veteran SGA memberMicheal Nardelli '97 led thecharge for voting to open animpeachmenthearing of Sadik-Khan by attacking the presi-dent for stating that he did notcare about running the studentgovernment and "if you don'tlike it you can impeach me."Naradelli insisted thai, "I willnot follow the leadership ofsomeone who 'doesn't care'."

Nardelli also stressed thatmany members of the SGA docare about thestudent body and

HATTHEW PRINCESadik-Khan, pictured here,lost the SGA confidence vote.the student government. But hefound Sadik-Khan's leadershipto be "undermining [their] repu-tation as senators" and the in-tegrity of the SGA.

It became quickly apparentthat the senate was unwilling tovole to impeach Sadik-Khan thatevening, specifically citing ansection of the SGA constitutionwhich said that all matters ofimpeachmentmustgobefore theSteering Board before comingto the general assembly.

Undaunted, Nardelli theninsisted on a "Vole of No-Confi-dence" — a nonbinding poll in-dicating how the Senate feelsthe executive is performing inoffice. After some debate, themotion was supported and ar-gument on the Vole of Confi-dence took place,

"I ran [for president] be-

cause I wanted change," Sadik-Khan defended himself. "I'mnot afraid ofbeing judged." InTesponse to the initial accusa-tion that he did not care, Sadik-Khan said, "Inreality the prob-lem is I care too much. I careaboutgetting things done." Hementioned that he sufferedfrom stress and gave up editingThe Other Voice—"the one thingI really cared about at Trinity"— and could no t focus as muchas he would have liked on histhesis.

What he did not care about,Sadik-Khan said, was for the"continual crap," personal at-tacks, and debates over proce-dure which he thinks dominateSG Ameetings. "I think I'vekeptmy promises. I've been anadult. My fate's in your hands.Do as you will."

Sadik-Khan then followedtraditional procedure and leftthe room. Nardelli began thearguments by asking the Sen-ate, "Are you going to let thatfool you?" He insisted thatSadik-Khan's defense was"bullshit." "He plays the gamebetter than anyone of us. It's acharade." Attacking Sadik-Khan's points in order,Naradelli insisted that, "It'swhen you say things on thespur of the moment that theyare true," implying that whenSadik-Khan stated he did not

OPINION THE TRINITY TRIPOD • Nobember 7, 1995

RINITY COLLEGE has changed dramatically over the last fouryears. The college has seen a changing of the presidentialguard, a search for a Dean of Faculty, the implementation

of the Strategic Plan, mandatory coeducation of the Greeks and amajor reevaluation of the alcohol policy. Many have complainedthat some of these changes have not been for the better.

Complaints of a 'social crackdown' have rumbled across cam-pus. There have been questions raised as to the actuality of 'studentempowerment.' Others have worried that the school's continuedincrease in the number of administrators makes Trinity into moreof a business than a center of learning.

Though there are complaints, as all students will have withtheir Alma Mater, Trinity students have much to be proud of. TheCollege is consistently ranked among the top twenty five in thenation in U.S. Neivs and World Reports. Trinity boasts awardwinning professors and a dedicated faculty. With the city sur-rounding and countless supporters, Trinity has resources that otherliberal arts colleges envy.

What is most impressive about Trinity, however, is the dedica-tion and support of the alumni. This support is seen in many ways,from the tailgaters at Homecoming to the million-dollar dona tors atthe black-tie affairs. Those who have passed through the gates havegenerally developed a love for this place. It is this spirit that attractsstudents to Trinity every year. The unexpectedly large Freshmanclass this year (508) is a testament to that attraction.

The students who attend Trinity have opportunities that manywill never even dream of. Whether that entails studying abroad ordeveloping their own minor, students here have a lot to lookforward to. Alumni can look back at this place, from the awe-inspiring chapel to the obscure carvings over the doors of Jarvis,and see themselves as students again. Trinity is a place to take pridein and cherish.

Welcome home, alumni.

Due to the school's commitment toeducating students with technology,computers are abundant throughout thecampus. Nota single day passes withouta student using a computer for informa-tion, assignments, or diversion. Withthis easy access to such a powerful "tool,"students are becoming addicted to theircomputers.

With such a large variety of pro-grams like America Online, Netscape,Broadcast, and Eudora, computers arequickly replacing social interaction with"cyber-talk." For an endless number ofhours, females and males will chat viathe computer and hope to begin a friend-ship,orevena sexualrelationship. Whilethis can be fun, it is not very realistic.Unfortunately, many of us are deludingourselves with fantasies.

Surfing the net, particularly

Netscape, can be interesting, as well as

exciting. Other than finding Trinity

College's home page, students can gain

access to information about other col-

Thereare numerous ways to search for specificinterests, such as music, sports, and nu-merous other hobbies.

Probably, the busiest server in use isthe chatroom, private and public. Here,a student can find people of all ages,genders, nationalities, and sexual orien-tations with one thing in common: the

search for a relationship. Depending onthe room, the conversations can get quite,well, steamy. Rather than going out andmeeting others, people are relying oncomputers to fulfill their fantasies.

A person possesses more freedomand control with this interaction becausethere is no true physical contact and in-terested parties are not turned away byappearance. Also, there is the comfortzone which allows for some distortionsof the facts. After all, a few white lies cannot hurt when one wants to gain andmaintain the attention of someone. Andonce a person has entered a chatroomand encountered some fellow chatters,she or he can be hooked. Eventually,electronic mail addresses are traded andthe relationship reaches another level.As before, this relationship is restrictedby the lack of face-to-face contact. Al-though meeting such persons can be en-joyable, it canbecome an excuse for avoid-ing reality.

Closer to home, Broadcast is thechoice of interaction for a significantnumber of Trinity students. Similar toNetscape, it provides students opportu-nities to chat and meet others from the.campus. As with Netscape, there are nolimits to the topics of conversation. Un-like the chatrooms of Netscape, main-taining a secret identity is not very pos-sible. Sooner or later, a student figuresout who one is and the secret is out.

Of course, there are also the personswho want to meet who they are chattingwith and become insistent on "hookingup." Broadcast does present one withthe same comfort zone of the chatrooms.Here,' there is a higher probability thatstudents will meet and be disappointedby the othfertf i ^ ^ i » « ^ * * W i W «isms. Fantasies do not last long on thiscampus chatroom.

Although these chatrooms can bestimulating for some, they replace a veryimportant part of social interaction; hu-man contact. Students cannot rely ontheir computers to replace friendshipsand relationships. Computers becomethe outlet for some insecurities and pro-vide a shield which people hide behind.Instead, they must be daring by facingtheir insecurities, turning off the com-puter, and walking out the door.

"We see now what courage entails.And true dedication to a cause. He knewthe dangers and he believed in his way. Hedid succeed in putting Israel on a pathtoward peace and on a path toward broth-erhood with the other countries in theMiddle East. For such great daring, thereis often a cost and he paid it."

— Professor Clinton Bailey

"It takes agreat man to make "war anda great man to make pence. It takes anextraordinary man to know when to stopmaking warandstart making peace. Rabindid this with such courage and such re-solve. He had to give up his life for it."

—Hillel Advisor Lisa Grant

"It is important to shoiv not onlyJetvish solidarity but also the solidarity ofmankind. It was nice to see that so manypeople showed up to pay respect to PrimeMinister Rabin."

— Terry Rifkin '99

"Rabin was the first person that weknow in our generation who was killed forpeace. Isn't it ironic that it is more danger-ous to fight for peace than to wage war."

— Becky Shpak '96

"I hope that they don't executeRabin's assassin. The last thing we needis a martyr. Besides, the time for killing isover. Now is the time for peace,"

— Aaron Jacobs '97

"Itzhak Rabin ivas a unique man ofgreat vision andsurpassed vision. It is myhope that his death won't mark an end tothe fight for peace but rather act as acatalyst to unify the rest of the world."

"I was comforted by all of the peoplethat had come to commemorate Mr. Rabin.I felt that there was an unspoken under-standing among those present, both jeivsand non-Jezvs."

"Rabin lived for peace, worked forpeace, and died for peace. He was a greatman who spoke clearly to many genera-tions in particular ours about the neces-sity for peace among zvaring nations andpeoples."

— LizFreirich '98

"After all the mourning and after alloftlie initial shock has cleared, hopefullythe impact of the assassination can be apositive one. The tremendous unity andshoiving at the funeral of over 80 heads ofstate shows an amazing support not onlyfor Rabin but also for the ultimate goal ofpeace."

Campus Safety Protects...

Kudos On A Job Well DoneBY DANA PROYECTOpinion Editor

Having lived on the south side ofcampus my freshman year, I was un-aware of the amount of patrolling thatCampus Safety Officers do and the com-fort level they provide to students.

However, this year as a north sidecampus dorm resident, I regularly seethe white Chrysler vehicles (with thelights on their roofs) stopping in variousparking lots, observing the students andtheir happenings, and then continuingon to the next area of campus repeatingthe watchful process.

Most students (as well as potentialfreshman) and their parents probably

Getting the message across to stu-dents that Campus Safety really doesprovide a relatively secure environmentbehind the iron black fence of Trinity canovercome thesesafety concerns. The factsare that there are patrols of the schoolgrounds and its surroundings 24 hours,7 days a week.

At all times there are a minimum of4 officers on duty and at times there canbe as many as 7 officers on duty. Weatherpermitting, Campus Safety officers alsopatrol the campus on bicycles.

The officers have a minimum of 40hours of law enforcement and security

It doesn't help that we constantlyread about violence (drive by shootings,gangs in the area, cars being stolen andsmashed, etc.) in The Tripod and The Hart-ford Courant occurring on Crescent Street,Broad Street, Allen Place and SummitStreet, streets all too familiar to Trinitystudents.

Laughter could be heard echoingcomedian Jon Stewartwhen he describeddriving to the Trinity campus as "crackhouse, crack house, ahh, beautifulschool."

There is an on and off campus shuttlethat runs until 2 a.m. Sunday-Thursdayand 3 a.m. Friday-Saturday. If, however,a student calls lost from somewhere inHartford, Campus Safety will pinpointhis location and pick the student up,returning him to campus.

We are fortunate to have CampusSafety provide securi ty for us in a profes-sional and caring manner. Unfortunately,we usually tend to find it easier to criti-cize rather than complement. However,in this case, I believe we would all agreeit is time to thank Campus Safety for a jobwell done.

Ignorance At The Helm...

Karim Capsizes Student GoVtBY KERRY A. MCKEVITTOpinion Writer

As Thomas Shay once mentioned,"Where ignorance is bliss, Tis folly tobewise."Sadryenough,intheStudentGovernment Association (SGA) ofTrinity College, the person whoshouldpossess the most knowledge aboutrunning an efficient government ap-pears to have the \east knowledge. A.s

voting for? When some delegates de-sired to speak concerning an issue ofimportance to them, they were inter-rupted bySadik-Khan. Notonlyis thisunfair to the speaker but is also rude.In addition to that, when MichaelNardelli '97presented amotionfor theSGA to re-elect the nine members ofthe Judiciary Board, confusion eruptedon how to handle the issue and itspossibVe debate.

ega tes are moTe than disillusioned withthe current governing body. KarimSadik-Khan '96, the SGA president,who made a campaign promise to re-form the SGA, needs to focus on him-self first before attempting to improvethe SGA. The image of this organiza-tion can not and will not improve untilthe president gains a better under-standing of parliamentary procedureand his duties.

This weekly meeting was com-pletely disorganized. It was quite ap-parent that Sadik-Khan is clueless onhow to address his fellow delegatesand to entertain morions. As presid-ing officer, it is his job to know parlia-mentary procedure and to apply itthroughout the meeting.

This means that he should be re-spectful of other speakers and preventoutbursts and slanderous remarks aswell as unders tand when amendmentscan or can not be named, debated, andvoted on. His demeanor on Mondayevening showed that he is ignorant ofthese motions. Thus, chaos did andwill always ensue.

Throughout the meeting's pro-ceedings, motions and amendmentswhich were brought up seemed to be"lost in the shuffle." The first motionconcerning an amendment was votedon before therevised version was read.Essentially, the delegates were voting"yes" on an amendment which theywere unsure of. The quesKon is: doesthis occur every time? Are these del-egates aware of what they are or are

cascdraent} it is im-perative that procedures be followedcorrectly. Sadik-Khan did not knowthe number of votes required to openthe debate, to limit the debate, or evento pass the motion. As the presidingofficer, he should be more than awareof the number of votes needed formotions and the debatability of mo-tions. These should be etched in hismemory. Because of his lack of knowl-edge, there is a lack of control and thedelegates argue amongsteach other. Ifhe does not learn these proceduressoon, the SGA quickly should find aparliamentarian who can keep every-body, including Sadik-Khan, in line.

Because the SGA is discussing is-sues that affect the student body, all ofthem are accountable to the studentswho elected them. For this reason,students appeared at the meeting toexpress their displeasure with theSGA's decison concerning the Judi-ciary Board, a panel that will decide oncases of racial and sexual harrassment,and which did not represent the diver-'sity of the student body.

It is difficult for students to viewthe SGA positively when actions suchas the ones above occur. Rachel Rivera'99 summeditupbestwhenshestatedshe was "utterly disgusted." All stu-dents shouldbe disappointed and dis-gusted by the disarray of their studentgovernment.

Rather than improving itself, theSGA with Sadik-Khan in the driver'sseat is destroying itself and followingthe Wrong road.

Academic Mentors Speak In Favor Of First Year ProgramToo Early To Deem Failure Bridges Social & Academic Life

To the Editor:

I welcome the opportunity to re-spond to Matthew Prince's opinionpiecefrom October 31st titled "The Failure ofthe First Year Program." I respect Mr.Prince's opinion even though I was an-gered.

I channeled my feelings into a re-sponse that I hope will be thematicallyconcrete, logical and truthful, three areasin which I feel Mr. Prince's article failsitself. My purpose is not to glorify theFirst Year Program but rather todemystify it; the more well informedindividuals that are out there, the fewer

the fact that this should not be a laundrylisting of my own accomplishments, butwhen Mr. Prince says that "It is hard tosee any difference between the mentorsand any TA for a freshman seminar," Ican compare being a TA for my freshmanseminar and being a mentor.

My duties as a mentor are completelydifferent. I would also ask Mr. Prince tospeak with those faculty members whohave TA's as well as mentors in theirseminars; certainly they must see a dif-ference.

I think that if Mr. Prince wishes tomake recommendations to the adminis-tration regarding the makeup of the resi-

Many times, the most exciting things that happen be-tween students and faculty occur outside of office hours.It is here that the First Year Program is investing its timeand money.erroneous opinion pieces that will bepublished.

I am convinced that Mr. Prince is anaccomplished journalist as he has real-ized the importance of catchy titles. Butshould catchy also be misleading? Mr.Prince's article is not about the failure ofthe First Year Program but is in fact a callto arms to ban freshman dorms. But thisinformation is not presented until theend of his article.

His title even seeks to underminehis own argument as even he ultimatelysupports the First Year Program. I amunclear as to how he makes a blanketstatement evaluating a program that hasbeen in full practice for three months.EvenI would notbe so quick to judge theDebate Team, (a club Mr. Prince claimsrpemb.eiship of) t the resurrected group,wrtose me'tttoefs ad&dir'*-'—*-'-^1""-*-'support by clogging our voice mails. Bythe way, don't get confused betweenBeedle and beetle.

I realize that I effectively respondedto Mr. Prince's article in that my ownexperiences having served as a TeachingAssistant for a few classes and havingbeen a Resident Assistant (RA) last yearinform my thinking. I am cognizant of

dence halls, he should not disguise itunder devaluing a program that pur-ports to bridge the gap between the resi-dential and academic lives of students.

Many times, the most exciting thingsthat happen between students and fac-ulty occur outside of office hours. It ishere that the First Year Program is in-vesting its time and money. Withinthese spaces created, students can growboth cognitively and emotionally by be-ing liberally educated. And a huge com-ponent excluded by Mr. Prince is ourvery own city of Hartford and •utilizationof its resources.

The First Year Seminars are activelyengaged in demonstrating that Hartfordis another viable option for extensions ofintellectual and social developments atTrinity." ' Ott a final note, 'should T r. Princewish to come to -my seminar and speakabout how one writes a provo cative opin-ion piece, he is more than welcome. Andby the way Matt, you looked great at theGender Bender!!

Sincerely,RobynSchiffman '97Academic Mentor

To the Editor:

I am writing in response to MatthewPrince's opinion article about the FirstYear Program from the October 31st is-sue. Understanding that it was just ex-actly that (an opinion) I am still incred-ibly disappointed by the fact that onlyone or two other mentors were evenasked about their experience. He saysthat it is because of the Academic Men-tors tha t "freshmen are feeling more alien-ated and separated from the school thanever."

I am sorry, but I just don't think thatis true across the board, or even for themajority of students. Nearly (yes, notevery, but nearly) every mentor that Ihave spoken to speak of the long hoursevery weekputinto socializing with floorand dorm mates, helping professors forthe class, and correcting and editing pa-pers.

There are a few mentors who havedecided that they don't do these tasks,and obviously that is who Mr. Princewas speaking to, but I can tell you thatthere are a great number of us who do alot of work and seriously care about thestudents we are in the seminar with. Iresent being called "bribed" to work forthis program. Many of us signed on to dothis without any knowledge of recom-pense.

It is unfair to make it sound as thoughwe are all in this for the money. It is hardto find people who want to do this, andobviously there were a few who did itand did not want to, but I also know thatI have friends who applied and wereturned away. The applications were sub-mitted before there was any knowledgeof salary.>' Obviously these candidates werewilling to do the job, but simply notchosen. They weren't in irfor the money,and it's unfair to say that those of us whowere chosen are.

In fact, I was just speaking to a fresh-manfrom'my seminar and she was say-ing that "without this seminar, I wouldnever have met (three girls) from ourdorm. Students are not often 'social' inclasses, and our seminar is one of the few

places that I could meet people rightfrom the beginning."

I also know for a fact that I havenever had any problem with my profes-sor on how to spend the class's money.Our seminar has taken a whole bunch ofpurely social trips but also has spentmoney on more "educational" trips andaids in class which were used for writingpapers.

From my point of view, the seminarhas been a great success. I have inferredfrom responses from classmates that theythink so too. A number of students askedif we could plan "seminar trips" in thenext semester.

There was a push to have a certainnumber of students extend the class in acolloquium next semester. The long dis-cussions and group sessions in my room(long after class has let out!) are indica-tors to me that my fellow seminar class-mates are enjoying this experience.

As to the freshmen dorms, of coursethere are problems. No upperclassmanwould want to live in one ever again.Let's be realistic, many freshmenwouldn't want to either. However, to doaway with them altogether would be amistake. There are a number of studentswho really like being clustered withpeople that they know are freshmen. Thisis whatleads to groups of students beingable to sit out in that halls or leave dooropen for people to stop by in those firstdays on campus.

I think that there is a need for somemixing of freshmen students with up-perclassmen, but it could be done onan individual basis. Perhaps ask on aquestionnaire whether they would pre-fer to live in mixed classes or all fresh-men housing. I think that we would besurprised to see how many high schoolseniors would chose to live in an all-fresrunen dorm. Also, with the new ideaof mentors and RA's in the dorm, as wellas greater incoming freshmen, I thinkthat it would be beneficial to the housingproblem if such an idea were considered,-

Bistro Gets Beer!!NEWS Page 5

-7- -rr *>

BY JENNIFER ALSPACHManaging Editor

"This Rocks!" exclaimedShara Abraham '96 while sip-ping down one of the first beerto be purchased at the newlyopened Bar in the far corner ofthe Bistro. Last Friday, the Bis-tro began serving a wide selec-tion of domestic and importbeers to patrons aged 21 andover. Upon presentation of apicture I.D., students and othersare able to buy beers rangingfrom regulars like Budweiserand Molson Ice to more interest-ing brews such as Anchor Steamand New Castle Brown Ale.

Patrons must show a pic-ture identification - either a Trin-ity College ID. or a drivers li-cense - at the new "Bar" andthey receive a glass mug withthe beer of their choice. Unfor-tunately, students are not ableto use their transfer option tobuy beer. This is because themeal plan is a contract with theMarriott food services. WhileMarriott is running both pro-grams, the food services and thebar are separate entities. TheBistro is only allowing people tobuy one beer at a time in order to

control the outflow. TheMarriott staff will also be wa tch-ing for people who share thealcohol with underage students.Anyone caught doing this willhave his beer confiscated.

Despite the need to enforcethe drinking age The idea to trya bar began with the interest ofPresident Dobelle. In responseto criticisms that the enforce-ment of the alcohol policy woulddrive students off campus, hewanted to offer them an addi-tional option on campus. Trin-ity Business Manager & BudgetDirector Alan Sauer andMarriott Food Service DirectorJon Small took the challenge ofcreating such an option fromthere.

Trinity entered into anagreement with Marriott to pro-vide the bar service. The collegeis financially backing the ven-ture for the first $15,000 in costswhile Marriott will run the ac-tual bar. Jon Small was ap-pointed permittee for the stateliquor permit mostly because theMarriott corporation has expe-rience with the administrativeand legal aspects of being re-sponsible for alcohol service.

The Bistro actually has aprovisional permit which allowsthem to sell only beer. Origi-nally, Sauer and Small at-tempted to get a license whichwould allow the Bistro to sellboth beer and wine, but in the

State of Connecticut, any insti-tution on a college campus canonly obtain a College and Uni-versity liquor license for beer.Technically, Connecticut couldstillrevoke thepermit,butSauerdid not expect that to happen.

In the meantime, TrinityCollege is doing every thing thatit can to ensure the success ofthe Bistro's bar. The Bistro haseven extended its hours. Thebar will be open from 4 p.m. to

Josh Freely '96 was one ofthe few senators who spoke inSadik-Khan's defense. "1 have

to the meeting to announce therally tosupportunionizationforMarriott workers, closed themeeting by expressing her dis-gust with the meeting and theSGA. "1 am aghast at what this

_^_____JHWpj|8liii |rTeveiFM«rnls^^^rmffTwnrnevervote to impeach him. AndI will never vote for no confi-dence." Freely echoed the senti-ment tha t Moodie had expressedearlier during the impeachmentdebate, "The students put himhere, they are the only ones whocan remove him."

Beth Egan, Student Activi-ties Coordinator and FacultyAdvisor to the SGA, spoke infavor of Sadik-Khan. "When Ilearned that Karim was electedlast year I was very saddened...[but] I believe that Karim is do-ing a very good job. He puts alot of hours. If he's playing agame, he is playing from theheart."

Annette Fernandez '96, theVice President of Minority Af-fairs, argued that Sadik-Khantreated minorities and membersof the Steering Board disrespect-fully. The information fromSteering Board membersprovedespecially convincing, as BenRusso '97 stated, "The problemsgo much deeper than what wesee here. That's why I changedmy vote [to no]. If the steeringboard is inefficient then we havea real problem."

Ian Sample '97, anothermember of the Steering Board,insisted that, "Because our ex-pectations were low whenKarim was elected does notmean we should praise him forwhathe's done." Sample arguedthat SGA meetings needed toberun smoothly and discussionshould be encouraged. Samplesaid, "Send a message — showhim how to run an effectivemeeting."

Moodie repeated the factthat he would not vote to im-

rSaeto be sent to SaaiK-Khan. "Theissue here is how he leads thisbody," Moodie said, pointing tothe fact that this meeting had anearly emp ty agenda and claim-ing that it was proof that theexecutive was failing to do hisduty.

Gillian Mueller'97, anothermember of the Steering Board,agreed with Moodie that theboard meetings are becomingdisorganized and Sadik-Khan istoo controlling. She also said thata few weeks ago, after the meet-ing when the SGA held facultycommittee elections, shepointedout to Sadik-Khan that the SGAconstitution stated that all com-mittees should ha ve at least onesenator upon them. Accordingto Mueller, Sadik-Khan said thathe "did not care."

The vote of confidence fi-nally came after debate closed.In a roll-call vote, the SGA deci-sively voiced its lack of confi-dence in Sadik-Khan's leader-ship. Only 3 senators supportedthe president while 14 votedagainst him. This paves the wayfor an impeachment vote nextweek to see if Sadik-Khan willretain his presidency.

Two-thirds of the Senate isneeded to throw Sadik-Khan outof office. Some members whovoted against Sadik-Khan didso only to send a message andsay they will not vote againsthim in an impeachment vote.Matthew Cini '96, the actingparliamentarian, hoped that thepresident would get the mes-sage and change his ways. "Ithink that we now have senthim a very clear message—Ithink we should now individu-ally approach him and let him

ting here I thinJc {ha t part oftheproblem is that you guys don'tknow the procedures... I think alotof what was going on tonightwas personal basing and that'sdisgusting."

Sadik-Khan responded tothe vote declaring that despitethe overwhelming negative out-comehewouldnotresign. "No,I will not resign. I'm not a quit-ter. I think I'm the best one forthe job. I won a fair election, ifthey want to throw me outagainst the will of the students,that's their decision. I've workedtoo long and too hard on behalfof the student body to have toput up with this."

"The studentbody and spe-

isa rescomes as little surprise tha t muchof the old guard doesn't supportme. In reality, their vote of noconfidence shows that I am do-ing the right job, and I am keep-ing my promises to the studentbody."

"Now I know whose withme, whose against me. The sameold jokers. The MichealNardelli's, the Kerri Mullen's,the Annette Fernandez's. I willdo everything I can to stopthem.," stated Sadik-Khan."Most of those people who havetried to undermine me want thejob of president but they lack themettle to run for the job."

Kerri Mullen '97 responded

to Sadik-Khan by stating, "I findit disgusting that meeting aftermeeting we talk abouthow thereare too many personal attacks.And Karim preaches how muchhe's against them. But 9 timesout of 10 they come from him."

NardeYli also responded,statingij,"ll JSjdik-Khan] took

' into consiiieraft'on (he criticisms,I would have no problem withhim leading [the SGA]."

Additionally, Nardellistated that he would not be infavor of impeaching Sadik-Khannext week, "I think Karim de-serves more time to hear thecriticisms of those who votedagainst him,"

Even if next week's im-peachment hearing fails, theSGA is bound by their constitu-tion to hold ano ther Vote of Con-fidence at the end of the semes-ter. This vote, however, will bebinding — if Sadik-Khan is un-able to garner the confidence ofone-third of the senate he willbe automatically impeached.

Wesleyan Minority Groups React To Arrests

Four Students Arrestedcontinued from page I

filed a formal complaint."I felt disrespected about the rea-

son we were stopped. We were stoppedjust for looking suspicious. Nothingwas explained to us," said Bishara Wil-son.

"Youdon'tfeel like students....I feltlike 1 was talking to a machine/' saidTarik Holder.

In response to the situation, theUniversity's black student group,UJAMAA, discussed the incident in thebasement of the Malcolm X building oncampus. More than 100 students at-tended, as well as an officer of theMiddlesex County chapter of theNAACP and two representatives of theNorth End Community Coalition. Thestudents say they want to address thelarger issues at hand.

Former co-chairman of Wesleyan'sStudents of Color Council, Joshua B.Guild, said, "I think there is a pervasiveattitude among police departmentswhether they are state or local police,that people of color can be treated dif-ferently.

And I think i t's going to take a littlemore than counseling and workshopsto change that."

As the news spread through thejity, residents showed their support forthe officers. According to Sgt. WilliamDexter, the police department receivedabout 10 phone calls from people who>elievedGodwin was doinghisjob. Two

people came to headquarters to voicesupport and were told to write letters,said Dexter,

Godwin is on probation for newofficers and has been assigned a moresenior officer to ride with him. Moreaction is expected, but has not beendeclared as of yet.

There has been no statementwhether action will be taken to theother two officers.

"The officer didn't believe he wasarresting them; he thought he was justdetaining them," Clayton said. "Butfor all intents and purposes, what hedid was arrest them and that's wherethe problem lies,..the students certainlydidn't feel they were free to go."

Godwin and the police officer'sunion have been unavailable for com-ment.

Joshua Grabarz, executive direc-tor of the Connecticut Civil LibertiesUnion, praised Middletown police forresponding quickly and in an appro-priate manner to the situation.

Instead of trying to squash the is-sue, Middletown police dealt with itup front. "This is further proof of whatwe have to deal with all over the state.

But at least there was a positiveresponse....Idon'tknowwhatmore theforce could have done. They had whatwas obviously an errant officer andthey apologized for it and recognizedthe officer was at fault by trying toretrain him."

Organizers Call For Neutrality InMarriott Collective BargainingBY ANNEMARIE PEILPublisher

Pro-union movements haveresurgedonTrinity'scampus. Twoyearssince the previous failed collective bar-gaining attempt, Marriott workers haverallied together once more—this time,with a twist.

Two years ago, two unions battledfor Trinity's Marriott worker support.This contributed to the split of the pro-union votes. To add to this, Marriottcorporation executives intervened by dis-suading workers from engaging in col-lective bargaining with either local.

Included in one particular paycheckwas a note saying, "If you were a mem-ber of Local 919 or 217 your paycheckwould be reduced by the union duespayments every moth. The union mayincrease your dues year after year.Thanks for your support. Vote no andkeep your money in your and yourfamily's pocket and keep your freedomof choice" in both English and Spanish.

Another claim againstMarriottman-agement is that outside Marriott execu-tives were brought in to speak to Marriottworkers in their native languages (pri-marily Spanish and Vietnamese) in or-der to scare them from joining in collec-tive bargaining. To this day, Marriottadministrators deny this.

Regardless, union organizerspointed to disorganization as the pri-

mary reason that Marriott workers didnot vote for unionization. Disorganiza-tion led to chaos which, according tounion supporters, led to the opportunityfor under-handedness by Marriott man-agement. As a result, things havechanged this year, as the Marriott work-ers once more rally for collective bar-gaining.

Only one union, local 217, is sup-ported by pro-union Marriott workersthis year. Moreover, there is a push by agroup of students, faculty, buildings andgrounds workers, and Marriott workersfor Trinity College to mandate thatMarriott administrators remain neutralas the Marriott workers negotiate.

On Friday, November 3rd, a crowdof 40 such Trinity community membersgathered to present a letter to PresidentDobelle asking that he mandate Marriottmanagement's neutrality.

In Dobelle's absence, Dean of Fac-ulty Henry DePhillips accepted the letterand agreed to forward it to Dobelle'sattention.

Director of Food Services JonathanSmall said, "I don't understand what theymean by 'neutrality.' I think I've beenneutral, as they've [the union] come inand harrassed my associates. I thoughtthat 'neutral' meant a fair playingground."

Organizers considered the demon-stration successful and were pleased withthe turnout of students.

The GOP Race: Straws In A Rising Wind Of DiscontentBY K, MICHAEL DERBYSenior Editor '

Texas Senator Phil Gramm won yetanother presidential straw poll this Sat-urday. The Texas Republican has al-ready won in the South and in Arizona.Now he can claim a victory in Maine. ButGramm continues to spend a goodamount of time and resources on strawpolls which only gives the political pulseof party regulars. He still has problemstaking his message to the voters.

Still, Gramm is trying to make hiscandidacy look like a winning one bypicking up momentum in these strawpolls. After having tied front runner Sena-tor Bob Dole of Kansas in Iowa (whichwas considered Dole territory) and vic-tories across the nation/ Gramm can nowfocus on the most important straw poll ofthem all: Florida's Presidency IK.

Gramm carried 42% in the Mainestraw poll. Indiana Senator Richard Lugarplaced a surprising second with 21%.Dole was the only other candidate whofinished in double digits withlO%.Penn-sylvania Arlen Specter came in fourthwith 8%. California Congressman BobDornan placed fifth with 6%. Business-man Morry Taylor took sixth with 5%.

Conservative commentator PatBuchanan followed with 3%. Southernbusinessman Charles Collins placed eightwith 2%. Magazine mogul Steve Forbes,former UN Ambassador Alan Keyes,former Tennessee Governor LamarAlexander, and anti-defecit crusader TomShellenberg of Colorado all finished withless than 1%.

Gramm clearly is the big winner.Critics constantly paint Gramm as a re-gional candidate. If he cap hires first placein the Florida straw poll in two weeks,Gramm may well claim co-front runnerstatus with Dole. Lugar showed surpris-ing strength in Maine but, unless some-thing drastic happens, any momentumhe's gathered will collapse after a seriesof losses starting with the Florida strawpoll.

Bob Dole will have to look over hisshoulder in Florida. Gramm intends tofight for the straw poll and he has madeinroads in North Florida. Alexander,despite his poor showing in Maine, scoreswell in the Sunshine State with his anti-Washington message. Buchanan has astrong base in Florida and should placein the top five. Collins will look to scorewell in one of his two home states (theother is Georgia) and Specter may pull

well in South Florida. Dornan, Keyes,Taylor, and other minor candidatesshould not be players. Forbes and Lugarhave been doing better in the polls butshould not contend for the top four spotsin the Florida straw poll.

There may be yet another factor inFlorida. Jeb Bush, the son of former Presi-dent Bush and the chairman of Presi-dency III, has already announced that ifGeneral Colin Powell declares his candi-dacy for the G .O.P. nomina tion he will beincluded in the straw poll. Rumors haveit that Powell will announce as a Repub-lican and former Congressman JackKemp may be his choice for Vice Presi-dent. A Powell-Kemp ticket could easilywin the Republican nomination as Kempappeals to many conservatives.

It seems more and more obvious bythe week that there remains great dis-content with the Republican candidatesin the field. Dole seems to be a frontrunner by default than from any greatenthusiasm from the party rank and file.Kemp, Dan Quayle, Jim Baker, DickCheney, Bill Weld, and Bill Bennett allchose not to run and left a weaker field ofcandidates.

Buchanan and Gramm are the onlyother candidates with national reputa-

tions and they only appeal to the moreconservative members of the party. UrHless Forbes, Lugar, Alexander, or Specter|can make themselves known to the vot-*ers, there remains no other options in thecurrentfield. Many Republicans note thai;none of the candidates in the field can-beat President Clinton whenpolled headto head. The only candidate who does isColin Powell. . \

A Powell-Kemp ticket makes sense-politically. Powell already appeals tomoderate Republicans and indepen-|dents. Kemp was one of the leading fig-ures of the Reagan Revolution. This ticke tcould win in the G.O.P. primaries.

Powell would take many votes awayfrom Dole and leave room for Gramm orBuchanan at the top. Powell would alsodraw away from Alexander, Taylor, andForbes who are all fighting for the title of"Washington outsider."

But are the rumors true that Powelland Kemp will team up? Perhaps. BillBennett, who co-chairs EmpowerAmerica with Kemp, seems to be treat-ing Powell with kid gloves despite thegeneral's stances on abortion and affir-mative action. A number of Bennett'sfellow conservatives have alreadyopened fire on Powell.

If Powell enters the Republican race,it would.be like the G.O.P. battle in 1952or the Whig battles of 1840 and 1848: thegeneral (Eisenhower in 1952,W.H.Harrison in 1840, and Z. Taylor in1848) takes on the loyal senator (RobertTaft in 1952, Henry Clay in 1840 and1848). Critics say that Powell would notappeal to many conservatives in the Re-publican party. Perhaps but Kemp as theunderstudy would. Furthermore, manyconservatives would like Clinton out ofthe White House.

Powell remains the only candidatewho beats the President one on one.Powell seems to betting that the G.O.P.

ibliamin office than a conservative Republicandefeated for the White House. He maywellberight. Still, untilPowell announceshis intentions, the Republican candida tescan only clutch at straw polls.

On the morning of Tuesday October 31st the novice women's crew team crashed their boatinto a bridge abutment on the Connecticut river. The boat, pictured here, was split in halfand the rowers were spilled into the river. No one was hurt, however, as the coaches wereable to gather the team and bring them to shore. Once on shore, they were wrapped inblankets by workers from the neighboring factories and many of the workers even offeredtheir cars as warming huts. The boat is well beyond repair and the crew had the addedmisfortune of losing all eight oars to the fast moving current. Apparently, they had tried toturn the boat around and head up river and miscalculated how quickly the current wasbringing them toward the bridge. When they realized their mistake, it was too late.

Amherst Looks ToAn Ad-Hoc committee has beea created at Arnherst to look into making changes in The First

Year Experience. The Amherst Student reports mat the committee will be looking to the model ofTrinity's brand new first-year program as well as a program at Hamilton College. Former Trinityand present Amherst President explained that while the program was proposed during his tenureat Trinity he doesn't believe that it's the type of program for Amherst.

"My impression was that it might be too experimental," said Gerety, "{but if s] an interestingidea."

Nutritional Information is Debated at Holy CrossMembers from a group called N.E.E.D. protested a recent Student Government decision to post

nutritionaiinformation in theschool's cafeteria. The groupdaknsthatposangthenumberof gramsof fat and calories contained in each night's fare would cause some students to refrain from eating, becoming "obsessed" with how the food would affect their figures. N.E.E.D also expressed thebelief that even students who don't already have eating disorders would become more prone todeveloping them if armed with this damaging information.

Colby Re-evaluates Marijuana PolicyCiting complaints By residence hall occupants, Colby College's administration is pondering a

serious crackdown on marijuana use within its dorms. The policy up until now had been to allowstudents to act privately within their own rooms undisturbed. Resident Assistants apparentlyreported hearing complaints from people of smoke permeating hall ways and slipping underneathdoorways. The new policy will involve verbal warnings from resident assistants at first, thenreference to the College's Department of Public Safety and Security if the problem persists.

Holyoke Reviews Student-Faculty Dating PolicyThe Mt. Holyoke Faculty congress is currently reviewing its policy on dating relationships

between faculty and students as well as employers and employees. The draft policy does notprohibit these types of relationships but simply asks those thinking about entering these relation-ships to consider the power dynamic involved. It goes on to state that this power dynamic can beused to assume a lack of consent if these issues are raised on sexual harassment grounds.

Fire Damages Mt. Holyoke Dorm RoomA fire, caused by rain coming through a window and shorting outa television set, damaged one

room and caused the evacuation of an entire Mt. Holyoke dormitory. Tine fire occured at around3:07am and was put out by several Campus Safety officers with fire extinguishers.

Saab Slams Summit StreetOn Friday night, November 3rd, a student driving turning

from Vernon Street onto Summit Street lost control of his Saaband hit the brick pillar that mark the entrance of the school.Apparently, the student lost control due to the rain and leavesthat covered the road. While the student was not going veryfast, estimated between 20 and 25 miles per hour, the impact wasenough to trigger the car's airbag and damage the car exten-sively. The student was notinjured and the car was towed awaywith no further complications.

Arrests Mar Monster MashOn Saturday night at around 1:30am, October 28th, three

students were arrested. According to the Hartford Police re-port, the problems arose when a student attending the Elmoparty in the Washington room refused to pay for admission. Astudent working the door tried to prevent the student fromentering and a scuffle ensued. Although the police reportindicates that no pepper spray was used inside the building,many students near the bathroom and Rittenburg lounge weresprayed, along with the two students involved. The two stu-dents involved in the disagreement proceeded to run out of thebuilding and were chased by the police and Campus Safety.One of the students was arrested at that point, outside Mather,and one of the students escaped. The student who escapedproceed to call Campus Safety from his house on Crescent Streetto complain that the police had used the pepper spray. At thispoint, Campus Safety and Hartford Police went to the student'shouse and arrested him as well. The students were chargedwith 3rd Degree Assault, Breach of Peace and Interfering, theircourt dates are scheduled for the week of November 27th.

midnight during the week and from noonto 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. SLRCand the Calendar Office are planningmultiple events to draw people to theBistro for socializing.

There is a general optimism behindthis project, despite the failure of the lastattempt at a bar on campus - The IronPony Pub. This Pub was originally lo-cated where the Marriott desk is in theCave. The Iron Pony Pub served beer,but required patrons to drink in a ropedoff area by the bar. The Bistro Bar isexpected to be much more successfulbecause it not only allows 21 year oldpeople to drink while interacting andeating with their underaged friends, butthe Bistro atmosphere is much more con-ducive to the social drinking that thecollege has aimed for.

Associate Dean of Students KirkPeters commented that "the ambiance ofthe Cave is much less attractive [than theBistro] to students." Additionally, IanKennedy pointed to the fact that the Bis-tro "is located right next to the seniordorm, and the Bistro is a place that fac-ulty and staff attendmore than the Cave."

But the Bistro will not just sell to theon-campus students. Kennedy statedthat they plan to market to the IDP stu-dents and faculty. Also, a lot more off-campus visitor stop at the Bistro whenthe come to see Cinestudio and arts per-formances.

The bar in the Bistro has a lot ofpromise for success, especially since themarket is not as narrow as it was at ThePony Pub, but the idea behind the barwas to give students and the rest of the

Trinity community a place to sociallydrink and interact. Trinity did not envi-sion the Bistro replacing the dark, smoky,overcrowded environment of most ofthe places that students go to drink.

Rather, as Manager of the Bistro IanKennedy commented, "we are not incompetition with Gotham Lounge or theView, but we are trying to offer socialdrinking in a relaxing atmosphere. Wehave a good selection so tha t people willcome in to try different beers." Addi-tionally, Jon Small explained that thebeer prices in the Bistro were set at orbelow their respective prices at the localbars.

Student reaction on that first Fridayseemed to be very positive. Several stu-dents remarked that they would comebackbecause the prices were sucha gooddeal. The overwhelming reaction, how-ever, was on the attractive convenienceof drinking in the Bistro. As Heidi Smith'96 remarked, "this creates a better com-munity because we can come here in-stead of going downtown."

Evelyn Hall '96, the first student topurchase a beer from the Bistro, addedthatshe thoughtalotofpeoplewouldgoto the Bistro to have a beer with dinnerand relax. She also felt that the newservice mightmakea "good studybreak."

To celebrate the first day of beersales at the Bistro, Marriott kept the firstbottle of each type of beer sold and willdisplay the bottles along with the nameof the purchaser on a permanent walldisplay. Hopefully, these bottles are notthe only lasting effect of beer in the Bis-tro.

On Friday November 3rd, The Collums Society sponsored a blood drive in theWashington Room. The drive gathered a significant amount for the Red Cross.

BY MATTHEW HENRYEditor-in-Chief

An anonymous Student source hasbrought to The Tripod's attention thatone or more student workers from theOffice of Records and Institutional Re-searchhavedivulgedstudents'academicinformation to other students. This ac-tivity was confirmed by another anony-mous source.

According to the student, workersin the Registrar's Office were overheardmaking comments about other students'academic situations in an off-the-cuffmanner. Remarks included informa-tion about certain students who were onacademic probation or receiving mid-term reports.

The Family Educational Rights andPrivacy Act (known as the BuckleyAmendment) of 1974 protects student-confidentiality. As writtenin the Trinity

lollege Handbook, "the purpose of theact, as it applies to Trinity College, istwofold: (1) to give presently or for-merly enrolled Trinity students accessto their individual, education recordsmaintained at the College, and (2) toprotect such students' rights to privacyby limiting the transfer of their recordswithout their consent. 'Educationalrecords' are defined as those records,files, documents, and other materialsdirectly related to a student which aremaintained by the College or one of itsagents in the normal course of business.

The College lis ts as par t of its policythat "except as permitted by the legisla-tion, transcripts or information concern-ing a student's education record will bereleased to individuals or parties out-side the College only with the writtenconsent of the student or under sub-poena, in which case the student will benotified. The Act requires that th«

for such release, and to whom the copiesare tobe released. A copy of thematerialto be released may be requested by thestudent."

Information about a student's col-lege records, high school records, rec-ommendations or parental finances areall considered highly confidential. SylviaDeMore, Acting Registrar, said of aca-demic confidentiality "we take it veryseriously in this office. Records are keptin an open area of the office so we canwatch [student workers]."

According to Ms. DeMore, indi-viduals who come to work in the officereceive a one-on-one talk concerning con-fidentiality and also a group trainingsession. Student workers are not per-mitted to handle transcripts and otherhighly sensitive material.

This may explain how certain stu-dents were able to divulge informationabout students on academic probationand course grades. Whether or not thisis one student or several is not clear.However, thesamesource who informedthe Tripod of the situation in theRegistrar's Office also claims to haveoverheard similar conversations in theDevelopment Office and Campus Safety.

Vigil Held For Yitzhak Rabincontinued from page I

sonal memories of Rabin. Tim Slotover'98 read in English and Becky Shpak '96read in Hebrew a poem that Professor ofModern Languages Levana Polatewrote.

Tammy Alfred'96 read a letter thatwas forwarded to her via e-mail from anAmerican student attending the HebrewUniversity in Jerusalem who had beenactively anti-Rabin.

The letter described the student'sdisbelief in the act of violence that hadbeen committed against Rabin. Sheworried about what the futurenow holdsin store for peace in Israel.

The Hillel Advisor Lisa Grant fol-lowed with a biblical reference to Cainand Abel that "all of Israel is responsiblefor each other." Grant ended her speechwith the final verse of the mourner'sprayer.

The group dispersed withsomestu-dents remaining to sing the Hatikvah,Israel's national Anthem.

Rabin, representing the State of Is-rael, signed a peace treaty with YasarArafat representing the Palestinian Lib-eration Organization (PLO) and Presi-

dent Clinton on the momentous occa-sion on September 13, 1993. Just lastweek, a second peace accord was signedamong the Middle East leaders.

Rabin was also very influential inthe peace process with other Arab lead-ers. There is much concern about whatthe future brings now that the man whodedicated his life to ensuring peace in theMiddle East is no longer alive to see thepeace process carried out.

President Clinton, in his memorialspeech at Rabin's funeral, mentioned theirony that Rabin was killed during theweek of reading the Torah portion, theBinding of Isaac in Genesis 22. The por-tion is about God telling Abraham tosacrifice his son Isaac, Clintonparalleledthe story to Rabin. Rabin sacrificed him-self for peace.

The general reaction of those attend-ing the memorial vigil was that through-out history we have witnessed far toomany senseless assassinations of men ofpeace.

Men such as John Kennedy, MartinLuther King Jr., Robert Kennedy, andnow Yitzhak Rabin, all paid the ultimateprice for their leadership.

Page 10 ANNOUNCEMENTS THE TRINITY TRIPOD • Nobember 7, 1995

Trinity...Supply & Demand

Competition between parties has gotten a bitextreme. Around Trinity was shocked two week-ends ago when parties were actually using nega-tive advertising to getpeople to show up. It's hardto imagine going from the beginning of the semes-ter where the best thing going on during the week-end was a "Music of the 60s Tribute," to now whenparties are in stiff competition for patrons. Onceagain this weekend the organizers of the variousweekend events began panning the competitionearly/ AT asked a freshmen if he was going to"Gender Bender" on Wednesday. The responsewas,, "No, that party sucks!" Obviously the strap-ping young lad doesn't know that nothing but agood time can result from making men wearpantyhose;

Foucault & TruthAround Trinity was happy to see that the re-

pressed population of Trinity was able to breakdown gender roles and once again participate inone of the most interesting annual parties thisschool has to offer. EROS, who, as their nameimplies, is trying to "Encourage Respect for OtherSexualities," did a good job of convincing the partygoers of a couple basic truths about the sexes: 1) it'sa pain in the ass to be a woman, but it's a lot of funto dress up, and 2) it's really easy to be a man, butdressing up is down right boring.

Money & NakednessSpeaking of supply, demand and strange par-

ties, the Lower Long Walk Society's "AnythingFor Money" event on Saturday night could godown as another of Trinity's most interesting an-nual fests itself. Around Trinity is planning adoctoral thesis on the Pavlovian response of themasses inquest of photocopied dollar bills. That'salmost absurd enough to sound academic. Thank-fully the police that attended the evening were infavor of higher learning, and decided not to arrestthe clothing-deficient students who hung it all outto dry, so to speak. AT is certain that next year'smost interesting annual bash will be a combina-tion between "Gender Bender" and "AnythingFor Money." Throw in a little pepper gas, andthat's a party. -

Greg Brady vs. Naked PeopleWhile the Lower Long Walk Society, also

known as the Altemanve-TCAC, is off planningcreative and original festivities for the campus, thereal TCAC is bringing Greg Brady to campus.Yippie. To make matters worse, whoever createdthe millions of signs that were hung all acrosscampus spelled "sponsored" wrong. Around Trin-ity fears that if the cold weather doesn't snapthemout of their funk, TCAC might be bringing thePartridge Family to sing for Spring Weekend. Thenagain, maybe that would be better than last year.

Fire & FailingOf course, TCAC's funk is nothing like thatof

one Trinity student. Have you ever just known forcertain that you've failed a test? Ever wanted tojust stand up and walk out? To make some dra-matic exit? Well, one recent test-taker did just that.After realizing that he'd pretty much bombed.amid-term, he did the perfectly logical thing —whippedout his lighter and set the testonfire. Theprofessor, being quite sure that this was a violationof the smoking ban in all buildings on campus,insisted that the student extinguish the burning-blue-book immediately. The student, being quitesure that he could do no worse in the class, droppeddie flaming papers on the floor and left the room.Around Trinity would like to suggest that thisstudent be consulted when trying to light the giant"W" on fire this weekend for the HomecomingFootball Game. , • • ' . . • .

(India, 1995) Director: ShenkarKapur. Screenplay by Mala Sen. Cast: Seema Biswas, NirmalPandey,RajeshVivek;Banned in India for its graphic content and anti-authority stance, Bandit Queen is the incredible true story of Phoolan Devi,leader of a gang of thieves and a heroine to millions of poor and "low-caste" Indians. Inspired by her diaries written inprison, this unique film begins as Devi married off at age 11, only to run away from her abusive husband and be jailed asa prostitute. After surviving gang-rape and prison, she joins up with and eventually takes over a gang of outlaws, whomshe uses for her own agenda, including famous instances of swooping into villages to stop marriages of child brides. Unlikemost Indian films, Bandit Queen tells the often brutal about women's lives in its countries while celebrating the life of onewoman whose outlaw existence brought her freedom. A Hartford Premiere. 119 min.

and Jeffrey Kluger. Cast: Tom Hanks, Ed Harris, Kevin Bacon, Gary Sinise, Kathleen Quinlan. Not Since 2003: A Space.Odyssey has space felt so vast, and human life so precarious on the big screen. The unbelievable story of the 1970 Apollo13 mission follows the rule that failures tell us more about our strengths than success. Based on the memoirs of astronautJim Lovell, it takes the audience every step of the nail-biting journey, as the unlucky spaceship "breaks down" en routeto the moon and chances of getting anyone back alive seem slim. A first-rate cast with an eminently un-Gump-like Tom

. Hanks as Jim Lovell. 135 min.

Ford, Sean Young, Rutger Hauer. Ridley Scott's director's cut of Bladerunner, minus the narration and tacked-on happy-ending, return to the wide screen and newly tweaked Dolby sound system (see if you can hear the difference!) ofCinestudio. An all-time favorite of many moviegoers, Bladerunner takes place in the closely approaching future of 2019,where very human replicants are under attackby undercover assassins, The malevolent, seedy landscape is quintessentialLA at its glamorous depths; it sets the standard for many a futuristic film that followed. 117 min.

Collective Soul Plays Connecticut College SaturdayBY KAREN WALTERArts Writer

Collective Soul, the five-guy bandyou probably know best for the over-p!ayedsingle"Shine,"aredefinitelymorethan a one-hit wonder.

The group, which has been touringtheworld for the pastnine months, madethe American leg of their tour officialSaturday night with the opening show atConnecticut College in New London.They were introduced by the opening actWanderlust, who began the show withtheir song "Coffee in the Kitchen," off thecurrent album, "Prize."

Wanderlust, a quartet of black-cladrockers from southern Pennsylvania,have a recording contract with RCA andput on a professional show, as openingbands go. The lead singer ran up and

down the stage, jumped onto the speak-ers, chafed at the leash of his guitar cable,and tossed a copy of the band's CD to thecrowd up in the balcony of the theater.

Collective Soul madenobonesaboutbeing glad to play American shows again.Guitarist/lead singer Ed Roland wel-comed the audience, commenting,

This hand is just a hunch of guys doing what they love fora living, and they like to play it loud, while preserving acoherent melody and offering reflective lyrics to the lis-tener. There is not much pretense in this band. They justcome out and play well

Lastbutnotleast,theirsongs, thoughall in basically the same style and mood,were loud and energetic. Two guitar play-ers, one of whomresembles the Rob Lowecharacter in "St Elmo's Fire", added tothe eighties feel of the show and createdthe effect of a multilayered, substantialperformance.

"We've been in Europe for almost a year,it's great to see you people. Without youguys, we're nothing!"

Unlike the current trend, spawnedby many rising new alternativebands, ofappearing aloof and jaded in concert,Collective Soul looked happy on stage.The two guitar players were having fun

jumping around and competing witheach other's volumes. I have never seena happy bass player before, but WillTurpin, who also sings harmony vocals,did not stop smiling as he played eitherto the audience or to the drummer.

The band did two songs from theircurrentself-tirled release which they con-sider to be superior to "Hints, Allega-tions and Things Left Unsaid". Then,singer Ed Roland asked for audienceparticipation. "I want you all to yell'Yeah!'" he instructed us. "You'll knowwhen." This was his way of introducing"Shine," which sounds much more inter-esting and much better live than it doeson the radio.

With Roland doing double duty onseveral songs, CollectiveSoulboasts threeguitars playing at the same time, whichproduced a somewhat rough sound thatappealed to the audience.

This band is just a bunch of guysdoing what they love for a living, andthey like to play it loud, while preservinga coherent melody and offering reflec-tive lyrics to the listener. There is notmuch pretense in this band. They justcome, out and play well.

They also performed the hit "De-cember," on which Roland again askedthe audience to sing along. Lead guitaristRoss Childress was absent when theyplayed an older song, which Roland ex-plained had been originally written backin the days when Collective Soul had adifferent name, which nobody had everheard of.

Following that song, which had amore spare, minimalist sound, the bandbroke into their current single, which ismore of a slow song, almost a ballad,than anything they have released in thepast.

.. I admit, I went to this concert withsome false assumptions. I thought Col-lective Soul was another sort of banal,Hootie-type band: nothing really wrongwith them, but their music just was notthat interesting. However, the honestenergy of the show proved me wrong, asdid the unique style of the songs whenheard as they ought to be heard: live.

It is wonderful to see a band thatappreciates the admiration of audience,even welcomes it, while at the same timeobviously enjoying themselves. A lot ofbands do not look like they are havingmuch fun on stage; it is cooler to act as ifyou do not care. Collective Soul stillloves what they do, and that is whatmade them worth seeing.

Talented Cast Shines In Musical RevueBY ELIZABETH PERRYArts Editor

The annual Musical-Theatre Revuewas held this past Thursday, Friday andSaturday. The show is a collection ofsongs taken from various musical the-ater productions that are choreographedand acted out. This year's performance,presented by a group of twelve students,was a great success.

Directed by Gerald Moshell, andchoreographed by Julia Strong '94 andRyan Moore '98, the show was entertain-ing and expertly presented.

The first number was "I Hope I GetIt" horn. A Chorus Line. This lively num-ber got the audience in the mood for anevening of dancing and singing.Berwinne Johnson '98, the stage man-ager for the production participated inthis number, calling out the dance movesand collecting the resumes. Next, theperformers launched into a series oftwenty-three songs that took us in awhirlwind through the next two hours.

Each year the show has a differentset of themes that shape the music. Thisyear there were four sections to the show,dealing with earning a living, war, friend-ship and "rhythm" and "blues." Thesongs contained these themes in theirlyrics. The show is part of the yearlong

series the music department is present-ing, entitled "A Season of Soldiering:Music, Theatre and War."

The songs came from a mix of well-known Broadway classics to lesser

second half offered as much as the first.Thesongaboutfriendship/'Old Friends"was well sung and danced by Ryan Moore'98, Matthew Morse '98 and Lisa Davis'98.

Each year the show has a different set of themes that shapethe music. This year there were four sections to the show,dealing with earning a living, war, friendship and"rhythm"' and "blues." The songs contained these themesin their lyrics... The whole performance was such a mix ofdifferent types of music, high, low, fast, slow; there wassomething new with every song.known shows. Some of these include,Hair, The Pajama Game, City of Angels,Showboat, Working, Baby, Pippin, LesMiserables, Passion and West Side Story.Each song brought something differentto the show.

Matt Morse '98 did a powerful ren-dition of "01' Man River," from Shoivbon tdespite what seemed like a difficul tset ofnotes, while the whole cast sang "OneDay More" from Les Miserables whichwas probably their best piece. Endingthe first half, the choreography was ex-citing, and the notes were right on target.

The show was brpken into two partswith a fifteen minute intermission. The

Later, a song entitled "FatherhoodBlues" drew laughs from the crowd asJoshua Ayers'971eaped around thestagein his excitement about becoming a fa-ther. Ifoundmyself getting disappointedwhen the last note was sung and thelights came up. It is easy to lose oneselfin the magic of musical theater.

The ensemble was a talented bunchof singers with some strong sopranoslike Lisa Davis '98 and Carrie Heck '97.Some of the numbers involved only thewomen, while others were put on strictlyby the men.

By combining these single sex songswith some coed numbers, the show main-

tained variety and diversity. The wholeperformance was such a mix of differenttypes of music, high, low, fast, slow;mere was something new with everysong. The direction was excellent, aseach piece flowed into the next in someway.

The set was simple, with steps andplatforms, and several painted boxes thatwere used as chairs and stools. The castwore jeans and colorful shirts as cos-tumes, relying on their voices and talentto capture the audience.

The young cast that put such effortinto this show are: Ernesto Anguilla '99,Joshua Ayers '97, Javier Chacin '99, LisaDavis '98, Carrie Heck '97, Ryan Moore'98, Matthew Morse '98, ChristopherMoses '98, Claire Nelson '96, JenniferPotter '97, Elizabeth Rohfritch '99 andChristina Tsoules '98.

It goes to show that the music de-partment is made up of new members ofthe Trinity community,and theycanonlygetbetter from here. We'relucky to havethem around for a few more years.

On Saturday, the audience gave thecast the first standing ovation in the his-tory of the Musical-Revue. It was welldeserved.

The next musical event at Trinity isBach's "Goldberg Variations" performedby Robert Edward on Nov. 12.

Kids Is Emotionally And Physically ProvocativeBY AMY SHACKELFORDArts Editor

Disturbing, shocking, disgusting,realistic: these were all words that wereused to describe the material in the movieKids. With that description alone, I wassure that this was a movie I had to expe-

A love story it surely was not. Theplot basically revolved around a day inthe lives of three teenagers: Tellie, Jenny,and Casper. Tellie, played by LeoFitzpatrick, is mainly concerned withsexand how to get it. As he explains at themovie's beginning, getting virgins tosleep with him is his ultimate conquest,and it is what he struggles to do through-out the entire film.

The most disturbing aspect of thisgoal is not the idea itself, but that thevirgins he sleeps with are usually aroundtwelve and thirteen years old. The filmactually opens with Tellie coaxing a

Tomorrow Trinity WelcomesGuest Lecturer On KrishnaBY MUKUND RAOArts Writer

This Wednesday, November 8th,the Hinduism-255 Religion class willbe'hosting a guest lecturer from theInternational Society for Krishna Con-sciousness (ISKCON.) ISKCON is aworldwide religious organization forspreading awareness of God. In theISKCON tradition, Krishna is recog-nized as God, (Krishna is a Sanskritword meaning "dark blue"; "the all-attractive.") ISKCON is the full-fledged20th century representation of the an-cient Vaishnava tradition of India.

In this tradition of Hinduism,Krishna is recognized as the SupremeLord, who reciprocates personally inmany loving relationships with his

devotees. God is seen as an all-lovingpersonality, a person, with feelings,emotions and desires like us. In this,the Vaishnava tradition is rich withaccounts of devotional exchanges be-tween God, the Supreme Personality

' and his innumerous devotees.On November 8th, Pyari Mohan

Dasa, an American, will share with theHinduism class what ISKCON is allabout, the philosophy of God con-sciousness, primarily Krishna Con-sciousness, The focus will be an expla-nation of Bhakfi-yoga as practiced byIndia's Vedic Vaishnava tradition.

The program, which will be inSeabury Hall Room 14, is open to allwho wish to attend. Comejoinusfaratrulyunforgettabletasteofbhakti-yoga,of Krishna!

somehowl was compelled to keep watch-ing. Perhaps it was an effort to see ifthings would ever get better for thesekids, but they never did. All I kept think-ing was, "This can't really happen...canit?"

Another aspect oiKids involved thesubject of AIDS. It is revealed early on inthe film that Jenny is HIV positive andthat she contracted the disease fromTellie: the only person she has ever sleptwith. She spends the rest of the movielooking for him, supposedly to tell himthat she has contracted the disease andthat he should be tested.

She continuously misses him, andwhen she does find him, he is having sexwith a thirteen year old virgin. Jenny islater raped by Casper, Tellie's friend. Itis suspected that at the conclusion ofKids every main character in the moviehas AIDS.

What makes this so ironic is that atthe beginning of the movie, a group ofguys, including Tellie and Casper, aretalking about how they do not believethat AIDS exists because they have neverheard of anyone having it.

Thegroup of girls, on the other hand,talks abouthow they know several peoplewho have AIDS, and it comes out thatJenny and a friend have been tested.Jenny's friend seemed the most at risk ofall the girls, and Jenny went with her justto keep her company, but Jenny ends uppositive, and her promiscuous friend isnegative.

Vakenskids fo thereality'that whatthey are doing is dangerous and selfdestructive, and also that they are notalone in growing up.

Kids was directed by Larry Clarkand written by Harmony Korine. Clarkutilized a documentary style filming.Walkjng with the camera, using npn fil-tered cameras, disregarding voice andsound overs, and shooting scenes in adisjointed, often shaky, fast pace keepsthe audience visually and auditorallyinterested because of its lack of conven-tional filming devices. By shooting thismovie in a documentary-like fashion, itdoes feel like this is an actual day in thelives of these kids.

Much of the credit for the believabil-ity of this film must go to Korine who hassucceeded in composing, as theCinestudio blurb states, a "scarily au-thentic" screenplay. The story line andprogression of scenes is tightly composed,and each scene flows to the next quitenaturally. One such example of this neatcomposition is when the group of boysand girls are having a conversation aboutsex simultaneously, but separately. Thetwo groups are juxtaposed which resul tsin creating a humorous, as well as in-sightful scene.

Overall, I did no t enjoy this film, butit did make me think. I would suspect,however, thatbpth the director and writerof Kids would consider that reaction asuccess. Once the film ended, I felt anoverwhelming amount of tension andenergy in the theater that I have neverexperienced before. Once we were alloutside, it was like everyone wanted tosay something, but they were either notsure what to say, or were afraid to sayanything at all.

For anyone who has not seen Kids,I would recommend viewing-it, if justfor the awe and sobriety one feels at itsconclusion. It is truly like no other movieever made.

Concerns Of Marriott Workers Voiced By The StudentsBY GAIA DILORETOFeatures Writer

Many students have asked why it isof the utmost importance that we be-come involved in the struggle for justicefor Marriott workers. It is all too easy tobrush off the issue, giving it a low posi-tion on our list of priorities. It is just aseasy to simply notcare to understand thecircumstances thathavebroughtforwardthe controversy. Far too often the com-plaint is heard that "Trinity students areapathetic."

For those who care to take notice,this does not have to be the case. Whenword was out that the job of a worker inThe Cave was at stake, over 200 studentscalled John Small, the Food Services Di-rector, to express their concern. Thisdemonstrates that there are students onthis campus that care.

On Friday, November 3, studentconcern was expressed again, when over40 students, along with several Marriottworkers, professors, and union organiz-ers marched outsidethe President's Of-fice.

A letter signed by Marriott workersin support of a union, and a petition ofsupport from the unionized workersfrom Buildings and Grounds, were pre-sented. This symbolic effort on the partof the Trinity community exemplifiesconcern for the injustices that take placeon this campus everyday.

The conditions under whichMarriott employees work are unaccept-able. Most workers make between $6and $7.50anhour. Their unionized coun-terparts at other colleges and universi-ties earn nearly twice as much, and re-cei vehealth insurance benefits, paid sick

leave and paid vacation.As a college that has become com-

mitted to improving the conditions ofthe surrounding community, Trinitywould be hypocritical not to support theworkers who are also members of thiscommunity.

Concern has also developed aroundthe impact this will have on us as stu-dents who are purchasing the servicesthatMarriottprovides. Will our costs goup if the workers are paid more?

The answer is no, they should not.At Weslyan, where the cafeteria workersare unionized and receive between $10and $13 per hour and receive other ben-efits, the cost for a Wesleyan student isalmost equal to the cost of a Trinitystudent's education. -

For example, thel9 and 14meal plansat Trinity are $1,125 and $1,105 respec-tively. At Weslyan, the 18 and 13 mealplans cost $1,120 and $1,020 respectively.We pay an average of $10 more for oneextra meal. Is that difference enough tokeep workers at a living wage that isunder the official poverty wage?

The students on this campus havethe power to make a difference, but it isup to each of us to decide if we are willingto take advantage of it.

We can call on the administration todemand that Marriott pay their workersfair, union wages and provide them withbenefits. If Marriott is not willing toaccept tills, then Trinity might considersearching for another cafeteria contrac-tor that will treat the workers here withmore respect and equity.

Homecoming Weekend, when nu-merous alumni and trustees return tocampus, should prove to be a timelyoccasion for student activism. In past

years, Homecoming Weekend has en-abled students to express their concernor angst over certain student-related is-sues to visiting alumni and trustees.

For instance, students and alumnitogether took to the field during half timeof the football game in 1993 to protest themandate forcing the Greek system to goco-ed. The event was a powerful displayof the student voice regarding the Greekissue. Homecoming '95 has the potentialto once again provide a forum for stu-dents to express their opinions.

Watch out this week for more infor-

mation regarding the union and Marriott.Inform yourself and show your supportby informing others. One small but sig-nificant thing you can do is to wear thebuttons that will be circling around cam-pus and sign the petition that demandsthattheadministrationbecome involved.

The workers are counting on us, thestudents, as anally thathas a strong voiceto actively support them in their struggle.Finally, show the alumni and trusteeswho are returning to Trinity this week-end that Trinity students are involvedand want to make a difference.

Sonja And Rob Take In The "Special Ambiance" At Franco'sSONJA BROWN '98 & ROB LOVETT '96Restaurant Reviewers

Rob: My mother often speaks fondlyof the "blind date" experiences of hermisspent youth; it was with her stories inmind that I decided to embark on myfirst one (with the Tripod's help).

It was 6:30 Saturday evening, and Iwas to meet this mystery woman at 7. Ihad just leapt out of the shower. As I hadsomehow misplaced my car keys, I fran-tically called a friend to plead for the useof his car. He agreed; I was set forwheels.

I was then struck with the realiza-tion that Franco's, our chosen destina-tion, might require reservations. I calledand they were accomodating, especiallyin light of the short notice, and I wasassured a table for two in the "lounge". Ijumped into the car and moments laterfound myself inside Mather, walkingexpectantly towards the Cave for ourrendez-vous.

The Cave was bustling with activ-ity, but it was hard to miss the womanwearing the skirt, blouse, and pearlsamidst everyone else's sweats. Sonjalooked fantastic.

Sonja: As my second blind date in aweek, I was somewhat more at ease whenI went to meet Rob in the Cave. Heapproached me and asked if I would liketo have dinner with him. I though it wasa cute way to meet. We waited for thephotographer, got our picture taken, andthen we were off to Franco's.

Rob: I could barely read the con-tents of the menu as the light was dimmedto create that "special ambience" usuallyreserved for a brothel, but this was irrel-evant as I knew that my passion forchicken parm could be satiated by mostany self-respecting Italian restaurant.Indeed it was on the menu—it would bemine.

Sonja: Itook my time (and thensome) perusing the menu. Was it a vealnight? Chicken? Pasta? Seafood? Ormaybe one of their specials? Everythinglooked so good smothered in all sorts ofcheeses and marinara sauce. So I readthe menu again . . . tortallini alfredo . ..veal . . .nope, it was going to be thechicken rollatini (chicken rolled inprocciato and mozzarella with a sherrysauce and mushrooms).

Sonja: No Rob, they weren't tam-pering with your mind, it was a discrep-ancy in the menus (mine was just betterthan his). So we traded menus just tomake sure we hadn't missed anythingelse.

Mine looked like two giant baked pota-toes, but after cutting off the end of one,I discovered it was just the chicken rolledwith the cheese and breaded on the out-side.

Trinity tutors work with their students both on oral andwritten skills. Students often request help with pronun-ciation, grammar or even colloquial speech.

Kim would have liked to continueher career in law but is hindered by herpronunciation. One option Trinity pro-vides for Marriott employees is partici-pation in Community Outreach's Englishas a Second Language program.

According to Katy Erskine, a projecthead, the goal of the program is "to giveMarriott employees, most of whom areimmigrants to the United States, the op-portunity to learn English so that theycan advance in their jobs, as well as actand speak for themselves and their inter-ests in society in general." The programis free and doesn't interfere with theirwork. Employees can arrange conve-nient times to meet with their tutors justonce or twice a week.

Trinity tutors work with their stu-dents both on oral and written skills.Students often request help with pro-nunciation, grammar or even colloquialspeech. Sarah Vanderweil, an ESL tutor,notes that "even though many of themstudied English before coming toAmerica, I think it's important for themto hear English from a native speaker."

To work on speaking skills, Sarahand her student often discuss their plansfor the week or talk about something

many irregularities both in grammar andpronunciation.

Brecky Beard helps her student workon pronunciation by having her read outloud. Recently they have been readingabout Abraham Lincoln and the CivilWar. "I think it's fascinating that shewants to learn about the civil war thattook place here, and the freedom thatcame out of it - when she has experienceda civil war in her own native country."

Erika Escartin, a project head of theESL program, enjoys teaching Englishbecause the Marriott employees are "sowilling and excited to learn English."

Her student, an Italian woman,speaks English well, but wants help toimprove her grammar and to understandthe technical language she comes acrosswhen reading bills and writing checks.When asked why she enjoys tutoring,Escartin exclaimed "it makes you feelgood [to help someone]."

Former Bantam Coach Smith Keeping Busy At CulverBYCLAYSIEGERTSports Editor

Former Trinity coach Dan Smith isstill a man for all seasons.

During his five years at Trinity,Smith coached football, basketball andbaseball. Now he is doing the same atCulver Military Academy, a prep schoolin Culver, Indiana.

"I'm keeping busy over here," saidSmith.

At Culver, Smith is an assistant foot-ball coach, assistant baseball coach andthe junior varsity basketball coach. Healso works as an assistant to the AthleticDirector. He is responsible for contact-ing opposing schools, scheduling ofsporting events and arranging game of-ficials.

Culver is a coeducational prepschool, which stresses a rigid academicand social environment to its over 700students. The institution boasts suchdistinguished alumni as New York Yan-kee owner George Steinbrenner andmovie critic Gene Siskel. The rural schoolis located, in the words of Smith, "15miles from the nearest intersection."

Smithisa 1985 graduate of DeerfieldAcademy. At Deerfield, where his fa theris the head football coach, he starred infootball and baseball. After Deerfield,Smith went on to the University of NewHampshire and played defensive backfor the football team. His sophomoreyear, he was named as an all-YankeeConference punt returner.

After graduating from UNH in 1989,Smith began working at Trinity as acoaching intern under head coach DonMiller. In 1991, he entered Trinity's twoyear Graduate Assistant program, coach-ing both football and baseball while tak-ing courses in Public Policy. In 1994,

Dan Smith, pictured here with his parents, won the Bantam sroms INFOR«A«ON DEPTAward in 1995 for his dedication to Trinity Athletics.

Smith'sfinalyearatTrinity/healso servedas an assistant coach for the women'sbasketball team.

During his five years at Trinity,Smith was a coach on some of the mostsuccessful team's in Trinity history. Hewas the running back coach for the unde-feated 1993 football team. He was anassistant coach for the 1994-95 women'sbasketball team which reached the sec-ond round of the NCAA tournament. Healso coached first base for two ECACqualifying baseball teams.

"He did a great job handling theathletes. His relationship with all thekids was one of his pluses. He under-stood the athletes and their needs. Wewere happy to have him for the five yearshe was here," said athletic director RickHazelton.

For his commitment to Trinity ath-letics, Smith received the Bantam Award

in 1995. The award is presented annu-ally to the non-student who has made adistinguished contribution to TrinityCollege's sports programs. As a three-sport coach. Smith strived to make Trin-ity sports better. His dedication as acoach was rooted in the relationships heforged with his players and co-workers.

"I am very fond of all the people atTrinity. I feel lucky to have workedthere," Smith said.

To the players that he coached, thefeelings of appreciation are mutual.

Said basketball co-captain KaraRyczek, "Dan was always supportiveand enthusiastic. His motivation helpedus throughout our season. We couldalways count on Mm to lighten the moodwith his sense of humor."

Said baseball and football playerMike Ranieri, "Dan was always positvehere. He really knew how to pick up

players if they were down. He was al-ways the first coach out to practices, butoff the field he always made time for hisplayers."

Smith has brought this commitmentto his players to his new job. At Culver,Smi th serves as a guidance counselor for

his students. Besides academic advising,he helps the youths with typical adoles-cent problems.

"I help the kids with homesicknessand failing classes," he said, "and I alsohelp the kids deal with the strict environ-ment here."

Working at a military academy hasbeen somewhat of an adjustment forSmith. The military-based training is a

• far cry from the collegiate environmentof Trinity. Also, Smith is now coachingand teaching teenagers, rather than 20-year old students.

"I felt more like a peer at Trinity, butthese kids are a lot younger, so they viewyou like a role model," said Smith.

Smith's positive experiences atTrin-ity and Culver has influenced him tocontinue in coaching. While his positionat Culver represents a step-up for Smith,he hopes to eventually become a headcoach at the high school or small collegelevel.

"I feel strongly about coachingyounger kids and so I want to stay in-volved with athletics and education," hesaid.

Phelan Leads Women's Cross-Country Past Wesleyan; Men FallBY JOSHUA H. WATSONSports Writer

This past weekend, the Trinitywomen defeated Wesleyan in their an-nual dual meet. In winning the meet,held at Trinity's home course at WickhamPark in Manchester, CT, the Bantamswere led by senior co-captain KathrinPhelan, who finished in first place. Aweek after being named AU-NESCAC,Phelan raced to a first place finish to sealthe Bantam victory over its cross-state

PHELANrival. In the same meet, Trinity's menwere beaten by the Cardinals.

"Wesleyan was the team we wantedto beat," said Sonja Worthy '98, "We lostto them last year and it felt good to beatthem this year."

In the race, featuring two of the topteams in the NESCAC, Trinity domi-nated, claiming four of the top six posi-tions, Phelan paced the race from thebeginning and held on to finish with atime of 19 minutes 59 seconds for thethree mile race—30 seconds ahead of theclosest Wesleyan runner. Liz Worthy'98finished in second place, 23 seconds be-hind Phelan, Sonja Worthy '98 and JillRomano '97 finished in the 5th and 6thpositions, respectively.

"Throughout the race we had peopleat the front of the pack," said Sonja Wor-

thy '98, "When we finished the race weknew that we had won."

The weather for the race was dryand cold, a change that was welcomedby the Bantam runners. In their previoustwo races, the Bantams had raced in wet,rainy, and muddy conditions.

"It felt good to run on solid ground,"said Sonja Worthy. "We were a lot moreconfident because we had good footing."

The Trinity men, plagued by inju-ries, were defeated by a strong Wesleyansquad that claimed the first seven posi-tions.

"We were working with what wehad" said co-captain Charles Baker '97."The Wesleyan team had depth and wehad to go without three of our top run-ners."

The Wesleyan team in fact broughteighteen runners, while only five run-ners competed for the Bantams. EtienneShannon '96, and Eric Lavigne '98 weresideline this week due to shin splints andwill miss the postseason. Josh Olson '97,who succumbed to back pain, was run-ning well towards the head of the packbut dropped out about a mile and a halfinto the race. Olson is expected to race inthe New England Championships nextweekend.

Co-captains Rob Johnson '97 andCharles Baker '97 were the top two run-ners for the Trinity men this week.Johnson and Baker finished in the eighthand ninth positions overall.

This race marked the end of the regu-lar season for the Bantams. Next week,they will be competing in the Division inNew England Championships. Thewomen, who have raced well all year,will be going into the championshipswith a strong, healthy team and will be =looking to duplicate the success that theyenjoyed there last year when they placedseventh. The men will race with only apartial squad due to injuries.

Fast Start, Slow Finish Means NoPostseason For Women^ SoccerBY BEN GOLASSports Writer

The 1995 season can onlybe described as frustrating forthe women's soccer team. Earlyin the season, the Bantams posi-tioned themselves to earn apostseason berth by bolting outto a 5-1-1 record. However, intheir last seven games, the Ban-tams eliminated their chancesfor postseason play by record-ing a dismal 1-5-1 record.

"The season was disap-pointing," said head caochMaureen Pine. "It was not thatour schedule got tougher, some-thing went wrong."

Pine b elieves that the p hysi-cal nature of play in the NESC ACwore down her team. The Ban-tam lineup, which was heavilydependent on freshman play-ers, could not sustain the highlevel of play that propelled themearly in the season.

"There are fourteen toughgames. We were young andsomewhat inexperienced andthe physical aspect took its toll,"said Pine.

When the Bantams wonearly in the season, it was due toa complete team effort where allthe players were involved. Af-ter the Bantams suffered a fewlosses, though, they stoppeddoing the things that led to theirearlier successes. Individualplayers put more pressure onthemselves to produce.

"Everyone was trying to doit themselves," said Pine. "No

panicky."This emphasis on indi-

vidual play, coupled with thephysical grinding of theNESCAC, took the Bantams outof playoff contention.

The end of the 1995 cam-paign marks the end of the ca-reers of the team's senior tri-captains; Sue Lally, JennyRogers, and Mo Concannon.

For Lally, this season sim-ply punctuated a spectacularfour year career. As a four yearstarter, Lally started in everygame expect for one, compiled a24-22-10 record, and assuredherself several places in therecord book. This season, Lallytied the record for shutouts in acareer (15). Lally also earnedthe records for saves in a season(207 in 1994), career saves (633),and shutouts in a season (6 in1993). On top of these honors,Lally is also among the top threein categories for save percent-age and goals-against average.

Jenny Rogers, a finesseplayer with tremendous ballhandling skills, had anotherquality year for the Bantams. Atcenter halfback, Rogers con-stantly dictated the flow of thegame. For Trinity, the transi-tion from defense to offense randirectly through Rogers. Sheconstantly received balls in thedefensive zone, advanced theball with quickness and skill,and then accurately distributedthe ball to the forwards. Shefinished the season with 5 goalsand 2 assists and her career with

never works. We got a little In 1995, the Bantamsalways

received consistent and aggres-sive play from Mo Concannon.Concannon often came off thebench to add to the potent Ban-tam attack,

"She always scrapped andworked hard. She always gavewhat she had. She really did agreat job for us," said Pine.

For the 1996 season, theBantams will have to fill thevoids left by the seniors andsolve the problems thatplaguedthem this year to be successful.Trinity will be led next seasonby Alyson Guild '97, JenMartinelli '98 and Ryan Will-iams '99. In 1995, Guild hadfour goals and four assists,Martinelli had two goals andfour assists and Williams had ateam-leading five goals and fourassists. Also returning are JenSummergrade '97, ColleenMcGlynn '98, Robin Mack '99,Shelley Lozier '99, and CourtneyGlenn '99.

To besuccessful, Pine planstocompliment thiscore of youngplayers with another talentedfreshman class. By bringing inmore players next year, Pinehopes to provide the depth theteam needs to rise to the top inthe NESCAC.

"We need more qualityplayers. You can't compete inthe NESCAC with eleven goodplayers," said Pine. "To be thecream of the crop in theNESCAC, we will need moredepth."

If the Bantams can add totheir talented core and come to-

,MgeJJier. as<na .team, the 1996 sea-son could be Very rewarding.

confined'from page 24les and an interception. In theclosing minutes, Hankardsacked Polar Bear quarterbackRamon Martinez on a potentialgame-tying two-point conver-sion, and recovered the ensuingonsidekick. ButHankarddidn'tsee his performance as spectacu-lar.

"There's a point in everygame where someone has tocome up with a big play,"Hankard said. "In the Bowdoingame, I was just fortunateenough to be in therightplaceatthe right time. My number wascalled, and I think at this pointin. my career, I've been aroundlong enough where I can handlethat."

Hankard's impact on thedefense is not lost on his team-mates, however.

"It's so much easier to playon the line when you know

Hankard is behind you," saiddefensive end Jono Lenzner '96."If we screw up we know he'sright behind us. There is neverany doubt in his mind that weare going to beat our opponentevery week."

Hankard's accomplish-ments are even greater whenone considers his size. At 6'2"and 195 pounds, he admits hemay be a little too small to playlinebacker. However, he uses hissize simply as additional moti-vation, and has dedicated him-self to being the most condi-tioned athlete on the field.

"I've been quoted before assaying that my biggest fear isbeing tired at the end of a game,"said Hankard. "That's whenyou forget your basic tech-niques."

But with the help of hisbrother, Sean '95, Hankard hasnot had that problem this sea-

son. The brothers, 11 monthsapart in age, played together forthree years at Avon Old-Farmsand three more in a Bantam uni-form. Though Sean, a three-year starter at defensive end,has completed his Trinity ca-reer, he has still played a majorrole in Ryan's success.

"Even after he graduated,he ran with me and worked outwith me like he did every sum-mer. It's been strange not see-ing him on the field this year,but he's been to every game,and when I look over to Mm onthe sidelines he's still yelling form e . " •

In addition to his exploitson the football field, Hankard isalso a four-year starter on de-fense for the Bantam lacrosseteam. Wi th Hankard's penchantfor looking for motivation, it isnot surprising that the lacrossemoment that sticks out most inhis mind is his worst play, latein a game his sophomore year.

"In the Tufts game thatyear,we were up a goal with about 20seconds left in the game, andthere was a timeout. Coach[Mike] Darr said for me to covera guy and try to keep him out.But he made a nice move on meand put it in the net, and weended up losing in overtime.That play is always in the backof my mind; it pushes me tonever let it happen again."

It is this same intense self-motivation that Hankard hasbrought with him to the grid-iron throughout his Bantam ca-reer, and made him the clear-cut choice of his teammates lastNovember. For one final gamethis Saturday, he will have theopportunity to lead Trinity tovictory before the team is askedto vote on his successor. It justmay take more than one man toreplace him.

FootballSaturday's Game

The defense was led by se-nior Zeb Andrews, who had 31/2 sacks on the afternoon.Amherst, hoping to comebackin the second half, could notmove the ball against the Trin-ity defense. "We made someadjustments in the second half,which made it easier for us tostop Amherst," said Andrews.

Linebacker Ryan Hankardplayed up to the usual stan-

dards recording 10 tackles.However, late in the game,Hankard was knocked out ofthe game with a concussion."That just brought the defensetogether and made us want toplay harder" saidPezzuto. Thedefensive line controlled thegame, and kept Amherst to 122yards rushing. Andrews/ JonGolas '96, Jono Lenzner '96 andBrad Mannal '98 all turned inspectacular games.

The Bantams finish uptheir season on Saturdayagainst intrastate rivalWesleyan.

Steinbrenner Does It Again With Manager ShowaiterGeorge Steinbrenner still

doesn't get it.He fires managers at the

drop of a hat. And if he docsnot fire them, he finds a way todrive them away into retire-ment or "resignation."

COMMENTARY

by Mark Mentone

For example, the egocen-tric owner of the New York Yan-kees once found a reason to firemanager Dick Howzer after aseason in which Howzer won103 games. Howzer went on towin a World Series as skipper ofthe Kansas City Royals. Like-wise, he somehow fired LouPiniella twice in a twelve-monthperiod. Lou Piniella went on towin a World Series champion-ship with the 1990 CincinnatiReds.

And now, the latest victimisBuck Showalter. TheBosshasrun one of the best young man-agers in the game out of town.While Showalter was not"fired," Steinbrenner did notexactly entice Showalter to stay.Steinbrenner made a single con-

tract offer to Showalter for $1million over two years, whichthe manager rejected. WhileShowalter expected negotia-tions, Steinbrenner announcedthat the Yankees and Showalterwere parting ways. Then in bi-zarre fashion, which has becometypical of Steinbrenner's Yan-kees,Showalterwas thelastper-son to find out that he was out ofa job.

So here the Yankees areagain; conducting a search for anew field manager. The funnything is, the owner does not re-alize that the most q ua lif ied per-son for the position was the manbeing replaced,

Showalter, who had spenthis entire career as a player,coach, and manger in the Yan-kees' organization, had broughtthe Bronx Bombers back to re-spectability in the 1990s. In fouryears, which is surprisingly thelongest continuous managerialstint under the Steinbrenner re-gime, Showalter guided theYanks from a sub-.500 club tothe major leagues' best record inthe strike-shortened 1994, Thatyear, he was honored as theAmerican League Manager ofthe Year.

Besides his on-field success,Showalter was a stand-up guywho had the perfect personalityto be a successful manager inNew York. Showalter's quietand reserved nature allowed

him to handle the incessant de-mands of the New York media.His humility made it easy forhim to put his ego aside in defer-ence to his desire to win.Showalter had a sense of loyaltyand professionalism meshedwell with fans of the team withbaseball's richest tradition.

His loyalty, however, prob-ably led to his leaving. The con-

Si riNBRLNNERtract Steinbrenner offeredShowalter stipulated thatatleastone of the skipper's coacheswould not be retained.Showalter stood up for his staff,and ultimately took the fall forit. The day it was announcedthat Showalter wouldn't return,he was quoted as saying, "It'snot easy to walk away from amillion dollars, but you have tostand for something."

Steinbrenner, conversely,stands for nothing. He does notrespect the game of baseball. Ifhe did* he would learn the game.

He would know that continuityamong the general manager,manager, and coaches is impor-

tant to a team's success. While itis true that baseball games arestill ultimately won by the play-ers, the GM, managers andcoaches are just as important.But Steinbrenner has nevertreated, or paid, them accord-ingly.

For example, Steinbrennerrecently asked Gene Michael totake a pay cut in order to keephis general manager's position.Steinbrenner's reasons for therequestwerepettyandhadnoth-ing to do with Michael's on-the-job performance. It is anothercase of Steinbrenner's warpedjudgment, which has mired theYankees in an unprecedentedperiod of mediocrity.

So it is no wonder that life-long Yankee fans are now find-ing it so easy to stop followingthe team and even to, pick upanother one. I have alreadyheard some Bomber fans whowill root for Showalter's newteam.

Apparently, Steinbrennerdoes not see the long-term con-

sequences of his actions. A trib-ute to this point occurred dur-ing the Seattle- Yankee playoffseries. As ex-Yankee skipperPiniella Jed his team past theteam of his former employer, hewas captured on camera mouth-ing the words, "That was forGeorge,"

Maybe Showalter shouldhave accepted Steinbrenner'scontract offer. Maybe The Bossshould have worked harder toretain Showalter. Either way itis a shame that Showalter willnot be allowed to realize his fullpotential as a big-league man-ager in a Yankee uniform. Howdoes Steinbrenner expect to fillYankee Stadium, another boneof 'contention of his, when hehas let one of the most well-liked managers in the game justwalkaway?

Ted Turner used to be likeSteinbrenner. The AtlantaBraves owner was hands-on andpowerhungry. Oneday, Turnereven donned a Braves uniformand managed the teamfor a day.But eventually he left baseballmatters to baseball people, andended up with the winningestteam of the 1990s.

The Yankees have not beenso lucky. They still have thesame old Steinbrenner. Theonlypeople happy about him beingwith the Yankees are fans of thethe other four teams in the AtE a s t . ' , '" :.. •'••: V .-• • • ; ' . ,

Field Hockey Falls To PlymouthState In EC AC Tournament

Hankard Accepts RoleAs Football's Sole Leader

BYADAMKURKJIANSports Writer

The season has come to anabrupt halt for the field hockeyteam. Holding a lT0 lead overPlymouth State/ the Bantamswere victimized by two lategoals as the team lost a heart-breaking 2-1 decision lo Ply-

RAETHER

mouth State in the first round ofthe ECAC tournament this pastTuesday. :

"It was frustrating to losethe game because we played sowell. We came together as ateam and had the game undercontrol. But then they scoredthose two late goals," said AlexaRaether '96.

In the game, the Bantamsplayed uncharacteristically.Usually flat in the first half, theBantams charged out from theopening whistle and took con-trol of thegame. Raether scoredoff of a penalty comer five min-utes into the game, and Trinity

continued to dominate the restofthefirsthalf. The defense wasnot even pressed as the ball re-mained in Plymouth's side ofthe field with their defense un-able to clear it out of their zone.

'"That first half of play wasdefinitely the, best we haveplayed all season long," notedMali Barkman '96. "Everythingwas clicking on all cylinders; wecould do no wrong."

Despite their fine play, theBantams only managed onegoal. They did not capitalize onscoring opportunities. Besidesnumerous corners, feeds byAshley Knowles '98 and JoryWaldman '97 made a crossingfeeds which came up empty.

"We were in the offensiveend all half and we should haveknocked in a few more goalsthan we did," said Waldman.

As it turned out, the Ban-tams lack of first half scoringhurt them in the second stanza.Trinity became complacent in

. the final half and allowed Ply-mouth to crawl back- into thegame. With fifteen minutes togo, Plymouth tied the scorewhen Tina Erickson reboundedapenalty corner shot past goalieKirsten Skedd '98. Then, withonly three minutes to go, Ply-mouth scored again to take thelead. Amidsta scrambleinfrontof the Trinity goal, Tammy Leroypoked the ball past Skedd,. Thegoal completed Plymouth'scomeback victory over a Trinity

team playing on its heels."We sat on our lead in the

second half/' said Barkman."We thought we had the gamewon with a one goal lead, butyou can never get lazy like thatin an ECAC tournament game.There's just too much at stake,so teams won't just lay downand die."

"It was frustrating tolose thegame becausewe played so well."•— Alexa Raether '96

For the Bantams, the lossends a successful, yet somewhatdissatisfying year. While theteam finished the regular sea-son at 8-5 and earned a berth inthe ECAC tournament, the Ban-tams were haunted by their suc-cessful past. Trinity has a richfield hockey tradition, culmina t-ing with its NCAA Final Fourberth in 1993. However, theBantams have found solace inthe 1995 season because it re-turned the program to its win-ning waysafterlastseason's firstlosing record in 19 years.

"We really don't have any-thing to be ashamed of," re-flected co-captain Heather Mor-gan '96. "We got the program onthe right track again with a win-ning seasoivThat was our goalat the beginning of the year, andwe accomplished that."

Every November, not longafter the football team hasplayed its annual season finaleagainst Wesleyah University,team members are faced withthe responsibility of choosingcaptains for the following year,A year ago, apparently, thechoice was an obvious one.

HANKARD• Inside linebacker Ryan

Hankard '96 was the lone selec-tion to lead the 1995 Bantamsafter last season. Hankard isthe first single captain of thefootball team since DanKonstanty '91 was given thehonor for the 1990 squad. Itwas a distinction the Simsbury,CT, resident initially founddaunting.

"It was tough at first," saidHankard. "I thought about it alot over the summer, and I wasnervous coming into the sea-son: 1 guess I didn't want theseniors to think of me any dif-ferently because I've grown

close to those guys over theyears. I didn't want them tosingle me out."

But the Avon-Old Farmsgraduate has settled nicely intothe role. The added responsi-bility of the captaincy has donenothing to hurthisperformanceon the field. With a game re-maining, Hankard has made ateam-high 91 total tackles, andwill lead the Bantams in thatcategory for the third consecu-tive year.

"I don't really think thatbeing the captain has affectedmy play," he said. "Maybe inpractice I'll be a little more con-scious of pushing myself andtrying to push everyone else,but 1 don't think 1 would doanything differently i f I wasn'tcaptain. We all have a job todo."

Hankard has done his jobadmirably in 1995. He hasreached double figures in tack-les in all seven games, includeing a pair of sixteen-tackle per-formances, Earlier this season,he was named New EnglandSmall College Athletic Confer-ence Defensive Player of the.Week in back-to-back games-victories over Tufts andBowdoin.

The Bowdoin game,played in a driving raiastorm,may have been his best indi-vidual performance, as trie so-ciology major had sixteen tack-
