J-Board delivers two decisionswithout meeting quorum rulePublic log incorporates roll call votes for first time

by April OndisAssadale News Editor

In two cases decided after thenew Judiciary Board memberswere voted in last spring, there is acontention that the Judiciary Boardvoted without 'reaching quorum.Quorum is the minimum number

of members present with which thebody may conduct business.According to regulations out-

lined in the Judiciary Board 1992-1993 Handbook, quorum is metwhen two-thirds of the electedBoard members participate in acase. There are nine elected Boardofficers,However. of the two cases in

question, case #0 and case #6, onlyfour votes toward the decisions arerecorded in the roll call of thisyear's first Judiciary Board Log.The students in both cases werefound guilty.The log attendance count lists

three class representatives withexcused absences: Scott Sullivan,Mike Markett, and Neil Maniar,with excused absences. The recordnotes that Mark Turner was notpresent because .he had steppeddown from the particular case pro-ceedings.This log is the first since the As-

sembly passed legislation mandat-ing more detailed rationale and rollcall votes.After being contacted by The

College Voice this week, JulieDeGennaro, chair of the JudiciaryBoard, issued a public statement atThursday's SGA meeting."I believed, and still do believe,

that quorum was met in every casethat I have heard as Judiciary Boardchair," she said.DeGennaro first raised questions

about the actual numbers required,citing legislation passed by lastyear's Assembly making the chairan elected, but non-voting, mem-ber. With this interpretation, quo-rum would could be met with five

votes by 'class representatives andthe simple presence of the chair.

DeGennaro also maintained thatthe J-Board had quorum with fourvotes because Neil Maniar, whoofficially resigned earlier this se-mester, had informed the Board lastspring of his intention to resign.Maniar was then off campus for

the rest 0" that semester . .For thisreason, the Board did not count hisposition towards quorum. The logdoes not list cases in chronologicalorder.DeGennaro defended the con-

duct of the J-Board in these cases,asking SGA to bear in mind thetime of year these cases were heard.Said Degennaro, "the Judiciary

Board hears many cases during Se-nior Week. It is an impossible timeto hear cases due to the fact that thesenior representatives have otherresponsibilities that week includ-ing baccalaureate, graduation prac-tice, and senior week parties."

"We must hear cases this weekfor practical reasons. Otherwise,seniors would graduate withouttheir cases being heard, under-graduates would be left with a casepending all summer long, and theJudiciary Board would beswamped in the fall."According to the Handbook,

"Following the end of classes inMay, cases will be postponed to thenext academic semester, exceptthose cases involving seniors,which will be heard immediately."Without discussing this stipula-

tion, DeGennaro also argued thathad the cases been postponed untilthis fall, fewer members wouldhave heard the cases and still metquorum.The freshman representatives

would not yet have been elected,and the opening which Maniar cre-ated when he resigned as a juniorclass representative would not yethave been filled.DeGennaro continued by saying,

"The Judiciary Board chair takes

over ... immediately following theelection with no training or orienta-tion, with a new Board, and twosenior representatives with onefoot out the door."DeGennaro "whole-heartedly"

encouraged students who believethey were given an unfair trial tocontact Catherine WoodBrooks.dean of SWden' Uk, and the Ap-peals Board. I-Board policy, how-ever, mandates that all appeals befiled within 48 hours upon receiptof a written verdict

The sexual assault in the Con-necticut College Arboretum hasprompted the administration aswell as the student body toquestion

While few would disagree .that itis very positive that the alleged per-petrator of the assault in the arbore-tum was caught in a matter of thirtytwo hours, that expediency hasbrought to light questions about thetime it has taken for an arrest to bemade regarding September's alle-gation of acquaintance rape on thiscampus. Ithas also brought to mindquestions concerning the rights ofthe accused in cases as lengthy asthis one has come to be.The New London Police Depart·

ment received a complaint ofacqaintance rape on September 14.No arrest has yet been made inconnection with that case, but, ac-cording to Captain William Gavitt ~of the NLPD, there is now not one, It<eatures pp 6-7.but two complaints levied against rhilean poet brings thethe accused.Gavitt stated that he is not ruling' Iworldof Latin America

cases are opened and closed within90 days, and after' that time thedepartment must put out "specialprogress reports." In this case, saidGavitt, there is more work to becompleted on the investigation intothe new charges before an arrestwill be made.According to Gavitt, the infor-

mation on the first case is alreadybeing reviewed by the state's attor-neys' office, and "the other one willbe shortly."However, concern has been

raised by members of the collegecommunity that it shows negli-

VIEWPOINT/ CONNTHOUGHTAbortion must becomean unnecessary optionLetter to the Vo;u,I have heard a lot of discussion

lately on campus about abortion. Itseems to me that everyone has anopinion, and everyone believes thathis or her opinion is the right one.While this is an academically andphilosophically interesting debate,it is also a moot one.What we need to keep in mind isthat right or wrong, women do haveabortions, regardless of whether itis currently legal or not. Everyyear, 200,000 women dieworldwide as a result nf botchedillegal abortions (World HealthOrganization figure). Women dowhat they must to lead reasonable

and sane lives, as people havethroughout history.No one particularly likes abortion,

and in a perfect world, there wouldbe no need for such a thing to exist.However, wedonotliveinaperfectworld: In the U.S. alone, 1.3million to 3 million accidentalpregnancies per year are caused bycontraceptive failure (NationalResearch Council & NationalInstitute of Medicine).What we need to do as individuals,

as a community, and as a nation, iswork for the changes that will makethe lives of pregnant womenworkable, and make abortionunnecessary as an option. We need

to fight for increased funding ofcontraceptive research, sexeducation, flex-time, and paidparental leave.We need to work for funds tosupport parents and their babies,since 94 percent of unmarriedmothers keep their babies, and weneed to press the government at alllevels for stronger punishments forfathers who desert. We need tolobby for decent, affordabledaycare. Whatwedonotneedtodois to criminalize abortion, becausethat has little effect on the actualincidence of abortions.

preliminary questions. Uponreading the actual article, I foundthat the event had beenmisrepresented and both its contentand impact had been overlooked.Many of the most spontaneous andexciting happenings of the daywere omitted.While the Bazaar of the Beliefs

was meant to be enjoyable, it wasnot merely a day of entertainmentand fundraising for various clubs.

It was also a day of heated debateand free expression of personal andpolitical views. This event set animportant precedent inencouraging students to speak theirminds in an open and uncensoredforum.

CONNTHOUGHTA "Bermanesque" classic:

Recent J-Board rationaleQ: What's more costly at

Connecticut College: Lockingyourself out of your room orunderage drinking and driving?Stupid question, right A real no-

brainer.If you answered drunk driving,

you obviously haven't read thissemester's J-Board Log. Forgetyour key, and a Campus Safetyofficer will smile at your lockoutapology and hand you a receipt forten dollars. Not so with drunkdriving. If you're real apologeticand admit you made a mistake, J-Board will let you off a drunkdriving rap with a letter of censure(the equivalent of saying, "Bad girl.Don't do that again.")This is no joke. In case you

missed it, here's how the J-Boarddescribes the facts of Case # 13 inthis semester's log:"Campus Safety spotted a car

driving recklessly on the road pastHarris. As the car neared theCampus Safety vehicle, a spotlightwas directed into the patrol car. Thecar was operated by Student A whoappeared to the Campus Safetyofficer as intoxicated. During thetrial, Student A admitted todrinking earlier. She also stated thatStudent B. who was a passenger inher car, had used the spotlight."Student A admitted to having

some drinks earlier in the eveningand apologized for her actions.

Student B admiUed to having shonethe spotlight inadvertently onto theCampus Safety vehicle and statedthat she was sorry."The Board voted unanimously to

issue a letter of censure to eachstudent because, ''The Board feltthat both [students] were veryapologetic and that this kind ofthing wouldn't happen again. Thetwo students took completeresponsibility for their actions and

another Honor Code violation?Isn't that a little ridiculous? Theguy in Case #7 who was foundguilty of being too loud too oftenwas put on social probation for asemester (and Deirdre Hennesseywanted it to go for a whole year).Where was Deirdre's sense ofjustice in Case #13?Students A and B were right in

admitting and taking responsibilityfor their actions; under the Honor

Code that's whatthey should doand the JudiciaryBoard was rightto take theirforthrightnessinto accountwhen voting on arecommendation.That doesn'tmean. however,the Board shouldforget about thecrime. I'm not

suggesting Student A should havebeen beheaded, expelled, or evensuspended. But what aboutsuspending hercar from campus fora year. a semester. a month, even aweek? What about social prooauonferber? (StudentT gotitjusl f:orhischronic hi-fi lifestyle.) At leastrequire a view-jag oEthat ABC A8erSchool Special where SADD isfounded."Crank up the tunes too often and

dumb as a loghave an attitude" gets moderatepunishment; "Swill some beer andgo joy-riding across campus' gets aknuckle-tapping. Drinking anddriving on a coUege campus isnearly homicidal behavior.Somehow, a letter of censure- evena reaUy mean and nasty letter ofcensure - doesn't quite cut itUnderage drinking is tolerated

here if done responsibly - butdrinking and driving, at any age, isnot only dangerous to oneself, butto anyone and everyone in thecommunity. (That's a fact soobvious I can't believe I just wroteit)But what' seven more dangerous

is telling the student body that nomatter what you do wrong, justadmit it, grovel (tears would begood), and the Board will let you offthe hook.I'd love to be able to stop right

there, but once you get probingthrough those J-Board logs youfind all kinds of neat littleproblems, and Constitutional Lawreading just seems so insignificant.Cases #0 and #6 are especiallyfascinating. Not the facts,themselves, of course, they'rel)rett)! mundane: a tam\')enng o{ anI.D. and possessjon of flIeworks.Cases #0 and #6 are interesting inthat only four members of theBoard voted in each esse. Bothwere held last semester when there

were eight voting members of theBoard. Quorum is two-thirds. Fourout of eight is 50 percent Even withmy math skills I can tell you there'ssomething amiss here.For the students in these cases,

whomever you are, Shakespeare'swords serve best "Fair is foul, andfoul is fair." Your foul deeds are(fortunately for you) fair, for thefair decision of the J-Board is foulfor lack of more than four.In other words, go yell at

somebody. You got screwed.The upside of all this is the

longstanding calls for moredetailed J-Board reports havefinally been acceded to - andimmediately validated.Now I'm just waiting to read the

next log. Will someone bum downNorth Cottage and be forced towatch a Smokey the Bear video?Will an apologetic plagiarizer begiven an additional free copy of theJ-Board Handbook and askedpolitely to read it? Will step-downsand absences allow Deirdre to bethe only person deciding a case'?Find out in the next excumgadventure of l-Boai:d StarChamber. Coming soon to dOQt'8.neat" ')'ou.

j

Ithe Board saw that they were bothvery honest and very sorry."Could we just pause and reflect

for a second, please. Thank you.What the hell's going on here? A

student admitted to drunk driving,was found to have been drivingrecklessly on campus. and she getsa letter in her file which no one willever see and which will have nobearing on anything she ever doesin life unless she is found guilty of

CONNTHOUGHTReflections from the election: musings, thoughts andpearls of wisdom from November 3 with Sean SpicerNow that the election has come

and gone, I feel it is appropriate 10

from the college were registered 10

In no waydo I intend to insinuate that studentsshould not vote for local offices,The problem though is that studentshere at Conn are isolated and for themost part are fairly unaware of theissues and concerns that shape thelives of those who live in thiscommunity.It is not right for students to vote

for positions that will never in factaffect them. State Representative,State Senator, Judge of Probate,etc. are all positions that do notaffect how we as students live ourlives unless we are rooted in thecommunity or plan to live here.The people who call New

London home are the ones who areaffected by the decisions and votesof these candidates. On the whole,most of us do not consider this ourhome. During the Winter, Spring.and Summer breaks we leave thisarea and are therefore not affectedby those candidates' decisions andthe problems that remain after wehave left.The fact of the matter is that

became obvious why "gridlock"exists in Congress. Republicansand Democrats seemed to makerude remarks toward each other andseemed unwilling to accept the factthat there is a case for the opposingview. Beyond party affiliation, weare all Americans and that is whatmustberemembered. Likeitornot,the Democrats have won and now itis up to all of us to solve. theproblems that face the nation.There is no need to ridicule a personwho has opposing views. It is in myopinion an act of discrimination 10

Itis oftensaid that those who know theiropponent best will succeed.Whether Democrat or Republican,it is best that we understand eachother's position.

FEATURESChilean poetand activistlectures onproblems of''DisenchantedGeneration"

On Tuesday November 10,MaIjorie Agosin, a Chilean poetand me keynote speaker for LatinoAwareness Month, delivered anenlightening program about poli-tics, Latino presence in me UnitedStates and her career as a poet,

In addition to her career as apoet,Agosin also reaches as an associate .~professor of Spanish at Wellesley'llCollege. and is a human rights ac- jtivist, She believes "living in lhe !!:United States has given [her] the Jprivilege, distance, and feeling of ~an outsider mat enables her to writeabout what was happening in LatinAmerica."

"The Disenchanted Generation."She informed the audience that inthe years from 1970 to 1980 ninetythousand youngadults, ages six-teen to twenty-one, mysteriouslydisappeared. They were later dis-covered to have been murdered bythe government

According to Agosin, theseyoung adults were "idealistic intheir beliefs in freedom."

Many of thses young adults wereterrorists or political demonstra-tors. These people, who had be-lieved in "revolution and change insociety," had ended up as "the gen-eration of the missing people," saidAgosin,

Agosin defined "The InvisibleGeneration" as"those who are nowin their twenties and grew up underthe dictatorship."

She explained mat they are megeneration who "watched peopleburning crosses and being taken outof the streets."

According to Agosin it is impor-tant that me "Invisible Generationfind a way to remember and talkabout me generation of missingpeople."

Agosin described the suffering ofthe families whose children werelaken from them. These familieshad hoped to find their loved onesalive, but now alImey ask is for meremains to be returned so they canbe buried.

Agosin pointed out that "90,000people are dead and not one mili-tary person is jailed for the crimeshe commiued."

Todd Whinen, housefellow of, Wright, wanted to be a housefellow

because he felt it was the biggestpersonal challenge he could givehimself at Connecticut College.Also, Whinen explained, me col-lege had been very generous in giv-ing him financial aid and he sawbeing a housefellow as an opportu-nity to give something hack to theschool.

As a housefellow, Whitten saidhe has learned to deal with manytypes of personalities. Whitten, anInternational Relations major andChinese minor, said that this expe-rience will be valuable if he goesinto teaching or public relations,because he'll know how to relate todifferent people. Whitten also saidhe enjoys having acertain amountof control over his environment.

"This year's housefellow staff isfantastic," he said. Whitten be-lieves the staff is diverse and easy toget along with. He added, "Ifl go aweek without seeing them I feel likeI've really missed something."One challenge thatWhitten faces

One of the most frustrating expe-riences that Whitten has faced so faris the lack of a permanent house-keeper in Wright, "The dorm wasnot being cleaned. We had one cus-todian who cleaned the floors andliving room, but the bathrooms

Whitten said that meeting somany "neat" people and havingresidents come and tell him thatthey're having a great day are thesimple thrills that reward him forbeing a housefellow.

According to Whitten, me Plexis a strange place to live i~ becausealmost all living rooms of the Plexdorms have something going onevery weekend. "If you are a her-mit, you should definitely notlivein the plex," he said.

Whitten said there is little dormunity in the Plex. He said that partofit has to do with the layout of thedorm rooms. Plex residents, ex-plained Whitten, have neighbors tome right or left side of their roomsbut there is no one across the hall.

Also, since people tend to moveinto the Plex in groups they tend toassociate with the people theymoved with and not make a bigeffort to meet other people in thedorm, Whitten added.

Aside from his housefellow du-ties, Whitten also sings and playsme guitar in the Coffee Groundwhenever he gets the chance. Heplays all different types of musicfrom Cat Stevens to Indigo Girls toJames Taylor. He is also chairingme Chinese Advisory Board.

FEATURESAudience 'energized'by Japanese healer

by Susan FeuerFeatures Editor

Extra Sensory Perception cameto the College through a presenta-tion by Takashi Yamagishi, fromthe Transcendallnstitule of Tokyo,an institute that works with andteaches the uses of ESP.Wednesday's lecture was spon-

sored by the Anthropology Depart-ment, the Connecticut CollegeAsian Student Association andUnity House.Yamagishi is the founder of the

Transcendentallnstitute of Tokyo.The Institute was founded a decadeago by scientists and medical doc-tors in order to study ESP from ascientific perspectiveand to use it inhealing.Yamagishi 's lecture, delivered in

Japanese, was translated bysophomore Yuka Nakajima.Nakajima, who lives in Tokyo, hasbeen an instructor at the Transcen-dental Institute for three and a halfyears. She is in June Macklin'sAnthropology of Medicine classand had arranged for Yamagishi tocome to Connecticut College tospeak to the class and hold a lecture.Yamagishi explained that he

would be performing experimentswith the audience throughout hislecture and that they were neces-

sary for the audience to "get thesense of what's going on."Yamagishi began his lecture by

giving everybody in the room theenergy he uses to perform his ESPexperiments. He told the audiencethat he was giving them a tempo- .~rarypower; if they wanted to keep it lafter the lecture they could and if >:they did not want the power they ~could tell him and he would make ~sure that they did not receive any. S'Yamagishi explained that it ~

would be easier for him to use ESP ~if everyone in the room received the ~power. He then began a meditationthat lasted approximately oneminute.After his meditation he told the

audience that they now possessedthe power that would allow them toparticipate in every experiment, Heurged the audience to participate sothat they could walk away from thelecture with the ability to healpeople on their own.He explained that the energy he

used was not spititual. "I have notmentioned God or talked about anyreligion the whole evening."The first experiment that

Yamagishi performed is used inJapanese dental clinics and medicalinstitutions today to see if coldmedicine and headache medicinewill be effective on certain patients.

loose, that case will take top prior-ity in the department until asuspectis apprehended. The departmentmust, said Gavitt, be continually"prioritizing and re-pnoritizingcases,"Gavitt said the case of the arbo-

retum assault fit those circum-stances, stating that in that casethere was a "situation in whichthere was a weapon involved andthere was an attempt to kill," andthat there was "an unknown sus- .pect, in the beginning, and one whowas in flight"Gavitt added that in the case of

the arboretum assault there was a"traumatized and visibly injuredvictim."Gavitt said that while the suspect

is not being detained in prison, thewhereabouts of the suspect in thecase of the acquaintance rapes isknown and he is not expected toflee, though he is not being de-lained in prison.Gavitt would not confirm rumors

that the victim of the arboretumassault is the daughter of one of themembers of the NLPD.According to Gavitt, he could not

comment because; "We do every-,thing in our power to hide the iden-tities of victims." Gavitt cited stat-ute .54-866 of the ConnecticutGeneral Statutes, which states thatall documents available to the pub-lic under the Freedom of Informa-tion Act are the "same documentsthat statute covers."Gavitt did confirm that the sus-

pect in the allegations of acquain-tance rape is a Connecticut Collegestudent, as are both complainants.As the date rape suspect has

signed a form voluntarily with-drawing from the college, thequestion must be raised about

plans for the tuition money he hasalready invested this semesterconsidering he has not yet beenconvicted of any crime. .~According to Raben Hampton, -;;

dean of the college. this issue is "not ~something we have discussed. Ijust ~don't know." ,l!S· ~aid Hampton, "At some future"

date we might have to cross this .2bridge, but at this point it's not a ~bridge we've had to cross." He "-added, "I don't want to say the col-lege has a policy of giving refundsbecause that certainly is not thecase."

SGA voted down a proposal which would have encouraged Connecticut College to "buy American."

Assembly defeats "buy American"legislation after caustic debate"It would almost be dangerous

for me to speculate on what wouldbe done with the money or evenwith the student's enrollment sta-tus," said Hampton.All speculation aside, Gavitt did

say that the suspect in the Arbore-tum assault case is in jail pendingpre-trial hearings.Gavitt stressed that an allegation

of sexual assault should be madepromptly to the NLPD, and ex-pressed concern that ConnecticutCollege may be trying to handlesuch issues without contacting thepolice."Apparently. th~SQ.I!!'81<e!"!!:J.kfl '

we're only an option." said Gavitt.Gavitt also said that there are

many reasons why a victim mightnot want to report a sexual assault,and said, "There's a view from soci-ety that if it is truly a crime and youare truly being raped then youshould be yelling rape. I know frommy experience that sometimes thatcan't happen."But Gavitt stressed the impor-

tance of reporting these crimes tothe proper authorities, remarking,"It is always an option that you canwithdraw the complaint at a laterdate."

Recently, the University ofRhode Island has been experienc-ing difficulties with its watercausing some speculation as t~whether Connecticut College willface similar circumstances.Because of high coliform bacte-

ria levels at URI, the 13,000 resi-dential students have been unableto drink or brush their teeth withtheir tap water. As a result, the col-lege has had to impon bottled waterto the campus. More than 10;000gallons of bottled water were usedduring the first week of the waterban alone.Coliform bacteria are naturally

found in people's intestines. Colif-orms are not harmful themselves,but they often indicate the presenceof germs which are harmful. Forthis reason, water that contains col-iform bacteria may be considered tobe contaminated.Debralyn Marshall-Baker, su-

perintendent of Water and SewerMaintenance for the New LondonDivision of Water, says that it isunlikely that a similar situation willOccur at Connecticut College."What they had problems with, welest for every week," she said.Every Tuesday, two water

Parents' alcoholsurvey "laid to rest"

by AprU OadlsAssodate Nrrw. EdItor

Swimmer, vice-president of SGA,made a very enlightening speech onthe subject Swimmer said she hadconsidered forming a new club oncampus to promote an alcohol-freeenvironment when she first came tocollege. However, after attendingcampus parties, she realized theparties have as much to do withsocializing as they do with drink-ing. "She realized that we alreadyhave an organization on campuswhich plans alcohol-free events;the SAC. Most SAC parties nowa-days are alcohol-free," saidShanley.At Monday's Executive Board

meeting with Niering, it was agreedthat no such questionnaire would besent home to parents. In its place, afew comments by students aboutthe existing campus alcohol policywill be sent home to parents as aninformative measure.In his comments to Shanley,

Niering congratulated students ontheir responsible behavior. "Hesaid that he'd learned a lot of thingshedidn 'tknow ahoutalcohol use onthis campus. And then he asked mewhat I thought about the idea of histaking a walk around Ihe donns atBarn on some Sunday moming,'Shanley encouta&ed N\etlng to

Shanley believes that the issue ofdirect parental involvement in stu-dent drinking has "been laid torest." However, the APRC ques-tionnaire has opened the door tofurther discussion about alcoholuse on campus. "Issues about stu-dent responsibility may arise in thefuture," said Shanley.

)

Last Monday theSGA ExecutiveBoard met with William Niering,acting president of the college, todiscuss, among other things, theAPRC mailing to parents which atone time contained an explicitquestionnaire for the parents ask-ing them what they believe the al-cohol policy ought to be on theConnecticut College campus.The questionnaire originally

contained approximately fourquestions centering on gatheringparental opinion on to what extentthe college should be controllingcampus alcohol use.This, accord-ing to Colleen Shanley, presidentof the SGA, "would seem like aninvitation to parents to have a sayabout what goes on on campus. Itshouldn't be that they have a directsay. Parents are not really a pan ofthis living community; they areonly an extended pan of it."The issue of the questionaire,

which was being considered formailing to parents, was brought be-fore the SGA last week by MarisaFarina, president of the class of1993 and a member of APRC. TheAssembly expressed intense disap-proval of \his 1J[O\lOSed ac..tion. andFarilla brought the concerns andcriticiSms oft1ie-.AuenJbly btick tothe APRC who then drafted a dif-ferent set of questions.Through SGA discussion about

ThePainter depicts a painter coming toterms with the fact that he seesthings differently from otherpeople. And in The Trial, we find aman accused of murder brought be-fore a judge, and how he comes todie.

and characters were often used toheighten effect, they were used toeducate as well. In same cases, textwas added to historical narratives,so that those viewing the art wouldbe able to learn from the events ofthe pastAccording to Bickford, perhaps

the most important development inthe area of this type of artworkappeared with the coming of Bud-dhism to China. Like the Chris-tians, she explained, Buddhist mis-sionaries often used pictures thattold a story to explain the historyand principles of Buddhism to con-verts.Many of these educational illus-

trations, however, were wordless;the people whom the Buddhistshoped to convert were illiterate andthe lack of text enabled the Bud-dhists to convey a greater sense ofuniversality about their faith to theChinese people.Bickford gave an extremely in-

formative talk and was able tocover many different aspects ofChinese art in a shan amount oftime. She demonstrated an impres-sive range of knowledge on thesubject, and perhaps more impor-tantly, a strong enthusiasm forwhat sbe has chosen to study.

Hockey looks to improve this seasonwith age and experience on its side

by Julie GranotAcllng Sports Editor

With one year already undertheir belts competing in the East-West Division in New England,the men's varsity ice hockey teambelieves they have the talent andexperience to have a successfulseason.Last season the Camels were

competing at higher level- for thefirst time facing off against severaldivision " teams and the topdivision III teams in New England.At the beginning of the season,Conn struggled a bit, losing eightout of their fust nine games., andwas oUlScored by their opponenlS51-16 in those games.However, in the middle of the

season, the team began to hit theirstride winning seven of ninegam<;s. At the end of the season,strong performances by Bowdoin,Hamilton and Williams were too

much for the Camels, who endedup with a 8-13-2 record.This year Conn expects to

improve that record as they onlylost four players to graduation andreturn many of their key players onboth offense and defense. .The team will look to co-captain

Chris Hawk for leadership thisseason. Hawk was the MVP andleading scorer last season, netting15 goals and adding 16 assists,In addition to Hawk, senior Malt

Hopkins and junior Rusty Stoneshould provide a powerfuloffensive punch for the Camels.On defense, the learn will be

looking for solid performancesfrom co-captain Daniel Crowleyand junior Attila Kosa. Crowley'sexperience and leadership shouldbe a big asset to the team, whileKosa was the leading scorer for thedefensemen last year. Theseplayers will be backed up byjuniorDave Sanleusanio and sophomore

Tom DiNanno in the goal both 01whom will do a good job ofkeepingthe puck out of the net.According to Hopkins, the team

this year has a lot of depth and all ofthe players are solid. '" think wehave three lines of preuy equalplayers," Hopkins said. Other keyplayers for the team this seasoninclude seniors Matt Cann and RayWoishek, juniors Marty Barrettand Dustin Beaudry, andsophomores Chris Doherty andDave Robern.Hopkins also commented that

the key to winning games this yearwill be determination, hustling andsolid forechecking. '" think we'regoing to take the body well, ... andas long as we hustle and play with a101 of heart we should do well," hesaid.Coach Doug Robern and his

team will have their first testagainst UMass-BoSlon this Fridaynight in Dayton Arena.
