Guest curator Margarita
Tupitsyn examined the Soviet
treatment of gender through the
forty-two work s in this
exhibition.
The title of the show is
derived from Lenin's words
uttered following the revolution:
"Evc,y kitehenmaid must be able
to rule the State." The exhibit
questions t he perceived
inferiority of females and
explores the propaganda which
promotes this depiction or
women.
"People have 10 look at the
exhibit and understand it in
tenns of propaganda. II is so
conceptual in nature that it
requires paying attention 10 the
labels you encounter as you
follow the show," explained
Claudia Levy, assistant curator
for collections at Picker.
Commenting on the disparate
images or Soviet women ,
Tupiisyn said that "Women were
glorified because they were
necessary components of the
first Five Year Plan. After that,
Sta~n had gained full power and
women were depicted in varying
roles of servitude."
The an or Perestroika
idealizes l~ communal Jiving
arrangement and provides a
commentary on the loss or
identity experienced by many
Soviet women.
The works depict women
· engaged in menial and painful
tasks. The medical practices and
sexism of the Soviet patriarchal
society are also themes that
manifest themselves in the
exhibit.
"This exhibit provides a fuller
picture than was ever available
of a Soviet woman's life, and
puts her treatment into
perspective," said Levy.
In Tupitsyn' s lecture she
explained the Soviet rejection or
feminist ideals. The ideal
woman, she claimed, was
perceived as a submissive
mother who stoically supported
the collective and spent long
hours laboring without a
complaint Perestroika probes
the contradictions that Soviet
women faced in lhcir society.
"This exhibit is very timely
in tenms or feminist issues. 11,e
issues that it addresses arc so

OIR Will Foster Diversity
By H t atbtr DiGiacomo
Mor00tt .Ncw1 Sldff
The Office of Intcrcuhural
Resources (OIR) , a new
department at Colgate, was
created to increase respect and
appreciation of cul111ral diversity
on campus.
Located in the basement or
East Hall, OIR is funded by a
grant from the Fund for the
Improvement of Post-Secondary
Education (FJPSE) of the U.S.
Depanment of Education.
According to Co-Director
Ruth Beach, the goal of OIR is
"to promote interaction among
various Colgate depanments and
organizations and residences and
centcrS and curricula that address
the concerns of different cullural
and ethnic groups."
The
concept
for
originated in 1991, when
President Neil Grabois invited a
g roup
of fa c ult y
and
administrators 10 address the
"intercultural engagement" at
Colgate. He stated that "it is
s urprising that on a c ampus
where so many students spend at
least a semester abroad there is
so liule understanding of the
experiences or individuals
different from oneself."
Dean of the Faculty and
Provost Bruce Selleck was also
involved in the proposal for
OIR.
"The challenges of the ne xt
centwy require that we must, as
a college, prepare our students
for global discourse. Successful
citiunry in the years ahead will
demand knowledge of world
cross-cultural awareness on
campus and provic!es forums for

Defining Residential Priorities
As the ad hoc College House Review Commillee begins IO define the proper role of the Iheme houses in the
residential life of the University, a disturbing polarity has already begun IO emerge. On one side are those
who want au first-year students to live in traditional residence halls, .-guing Iha! sharilll a common first-year
living experience will promote diversity and cuhwal undel$tanding among SIUdenls. The Olher side mainlains
that the college houses provide a support system crucial IO first-year SIUdcnlS who may noc feel comfonable
in a ttadilional residence hall. Although the debate is nowhere near closure, the side$ are already crySlallizing. 0.,spite the emotional nature of the issue, praclical considerations must noc be overlooked.
The University strives IO provide a dive™' and vilal community, and has repeatedly empha.1ized the role of
the college house system in achieving this admirable goal. Several considerations musa be made in deciding
how such a community can best come abouL
First are the monetary and practical considerations for the University in light of its ofl-swcd but vaguelydefined goals for residential life. The college houses in receat years have suffm:d from a high va::ancy rate.
This fall, there are 32 vacancies in the college house syStcm. For each empty bed, the University lolcs
money. The challenge of filling beds will also be encountered when the new donnil'Or)' is fmisbed next fall.
How to balance the need IO uphold the financial and practical viability of Iheme houses with the desire to
fully utiliz.e the new residence hall is a question with which the new committee and the University u I whole
must grapple.
The task is not made any easier when one considers the needs and pre(eim:es of individual Sllldents. Q.iile
simply. some students are not attracted to traditional residences, for whatever reason. If there arc vacant beds
in the place a panicular student may want 10 live, by what logic should the University iJllCM)IIII to limit lhci.r
choice of campus living anangements?
Turning to aoothct difficult issue, the viability of the Harlem Renaissance Center would be sevady jcopardi>.ed by l'CSlricting first-years. Currendy, more than half of all HRC residents arc first-yea. Much has
alrnady been said from various pe,spectives about HRC's role, both for the comnulllity of color and the Cllllpus al large. Just how it fits into Colgate's overall housing scheme will likely take centcr Slage before lbe
recendy-launcbed review is finished.
If one thing is ecnain, itis that the issues facing the Collcge HOUte Review Comm~are highly complex
and potentially explosive. They are issues inexorably inierrelaled, and IIOI easily amenable IO quick. formulaic solutions. When considering and discussing the subject, it is vital Iha! Sllldents avoid the ICmptllion IO
make sweeping generalizations about or indicanencs of the different positiOIIS p,esenred. Oiooeing a "side" is
not the same thing as arriving at a reasoned conclusion. And reason is what is needed now more iban e.er.
NOVEMBER 12, 1993
ensure that Colgate University did not restrict or limit
undergraduale rights which were otherwise available to
them u citizens. It is well established that students at
public colleges enjoy the rights of freedom of speech
and associ~tion. The 1975 policy's purpose was
simple: to guarantee that Colgate would never use its
"institutional powers" 10 l'CSlrict those rights.
In 1990 the SCRL report trampled on student rights
by placing severe limts on the undergraduate right of
freedom of association. Alumni and undergraduates
immediately protested the hypocritcal action, arguing
that an educational institution in America should not
teach that it is acceptable to terminaic the rights upon
which our society is based.
The Grabois administration's offical response to
undergraduate and alumni protests was IO ignore them.
There was no public comment or debate, no reasoned
dialogue. When it was pointed out that the 1975 policy
prohibited the SCRL restrictions on undergraduate
freedom of association, Mr. Davidson was direcled to
drall new language that would gut the 1975 policy,
leaving it meaningless. The Grabois administration
then quietly inserted the revised language into the
ca&alogue, ov"'1Urlling fifiecn years of student righrs at
Colgate.
Mr. Davidson's claim that the changes were meiely
to make lhci.r meaning "more precise" is an unfortunalC
8llcmJ)l to mislead Colgate's current undergraduates and
to justify an unacceptable infringement' on individual
righcs ill pursuit of political goals having nothing IO
do with Colple's mission as an educational instituion.

They danced in and out of every thought
that ever crossed my mind. They were
always lhcre, always reminding me of
wbal my rest results could be. For years, I
could have had AIDS, bul it didn't hit me
until I aclllally goc tesled for HIV.
Three weeks -so, I called the Sllldent
Health Center and asked if I could get an
AIDS lest. When I asked, the secretary
transferred my call 10 Dr. Miller, who
then set up the appointment. Just as I
stancd ro f,gurc out my class schedule to

Miller docs that for everyone. She gives
the HIV leSt to students on Sundays 10

see people they know in the waiting

Once I made the appointment, I was

an I.V. drug user or very promiscuous.
And she said it did not mauer if I was
HIV negative, many would still think tJuu
and avoid or harass me. I knew about the
stigma auached 10 persons with AIDS,
but had never really thought about those
who got 1es1ed having to deal with the
same type or thing.
When she was done tallting, she asked
me if I had any questions and then staned
asking me questions about any siwations
I may have been in that could have
exposed me to HJV. Finally, she drew
my blood and gave me a code so I would
not have to give my name. I also had to
sign a contract to verify that she had
given me all the important information
on AIDS before the test. But when I
si8J)cd it. I signed Jane Doc and below it
wrote my code. Then I was done, al least
with tbc 1eSL
From Sunday until the day I found out
the results, I could not stop thinking
about all the thiags I have done in the
lhc things I might never get
10 do in th~ future. Although, I have
never been an IV drug user or a homosexual, I have had sexual intercourse
before. And even though I have slept
with only one man, that one man had
slept with many women before me. I
remember reading a poster that said,
"You sleep with everyon_e who has ever
slept with your partner when you sleep
with your panner" or something like that.
I also remember shrugging my shoulders
and forgetting about it at lhc lime. Now,
when I think of my own experience. that
message seems 10 glare at me. It's like it
is saying. "I lold you so."
I was so tempted to never find out lhe
results, to never know and just live as
much as I can for as long as I can. But
then I remembered Dr. Miller explaining
why it is so imponant to find out early if
I am HIV positive. That information not
only keeps me from spreading it to others, but also lets me live a lot longer.
With the assistance of drugs and medications, I could live ien more years being
HIV positive whereas if I didn '1 know
and dido '1 talce the drugs. I could die
within one year.
So I went back and fo und out the
results. The experience was nerve-racking to say lhc leasL but it showed me so
mudl more about AJDS than I ever realized. Whether you arc HIV positive or
HIV negative, getting tested not only
opens your mind, but changes your life.

The problem lies in both the
peaentation of - aocial and
in lhe sheer volume of lhcm. We can
look again 10 MTV as the smooth and

violence, saving the earth, CIC... Half the

Neil Young to the Beatles wanted 10
change the world. I'm sure that the zeal
and dedication to their respective causes is
as true of the enien.ainers of today as it
was of their sixties predecessors.
However, the message 10 save the
ccosysiem has become just as slick as lhc
message 10 buy Coca-Cola, and many
times lhc two messages arc found within
the same commercial. John Lennon
wanled a revolution, and now the world is
too diuy from a thousand revolutions a

The best way to keep the rabblcrouaers qulct is 10 allow lhcm 10 talk all

Alas, this brings me to poor Crystal

She venled htt frusuation and she made a

the IDOlit preaslng Issue on campus tlals week?
E ditors '
Column
By Jeffrey O'Connell,Jr.
Not many students are aware or the
attention the administration has been
giving the theme houses recently. This
edition of The Maroon-News will be the
first time the campus as a whole has been
informed about a "supercommittce" that
is formulating recommendations for the
· Dean or the College and Board or
Trustees concerning the future of the
theme houses. The committee is trying IO
iron out inconsistencies within the
Universitity's cUJTent policies coward the
residential lire system.
As a biased and opinionated observer
that recognizes the significance or the
committee, I am compelled 10 offer some
palpable and palatable rood for thought 10
the members or the committee and those
who will decide what steps the University
will take:
• Colgate has rarely in iis hislOry been
· resolute. Flipping through the Report of
the Special Committe on Residential Lifo'
(SCRL), I was amazed by the various
180-dcgrcc turns in administrative
opinion and policy. For example, in 1964
report by the the Facutoy Committee on
Housing recommended "the distribution
or studcnlS through all housing facilities
without regard to class year" (SCRL
report, Appendix D). The SCRL report or
1990 suggested that the University should
do just the opposite: It recommended that
the University explore "the possibility or
re-establishing the 'Freshman Hill.'"
Let's make up our minds.
• Regarding first-year housing the
University is embarrassingly inconsistent.
In the Student Handbook the policy
stateS, "First year studenis arc assigned 10
rooms in residence halls by the Office of
Residential Life.... Housing options for
upperchlss studcnis expand to include
university college houses .... " The
Colgate University Catalogue states,
"First-year studenlS arc required to live in
one or the traditional residence halls."
Herc's the catch: Listed under
· "Traditional University Residence Halls"
are KEO, Stillman, Andrews, Bryan and
Cutten. East Hall College and West Hall
College technically don't contain f11styears because they arc listed under
"University College Houses" (with the
l!Jlrlcm Renaissance Center and the other
theme houses. )
, or course sophomores and second
semester first-year students living in
univc,sity college houses is inconsistent
with the University's move IO keep fl.!$t•
years and sophomores out or the villag~
and together on campus. But or course, 11
is consistent with the permission granled
for a first year to move off the Hill to
Asia House despite the prol.CSl of at least
one Residential Lire staff member.
Someday I could write a book on the
inconsitency or our University, on the
short-sightedness of the administration,
on the blindness or the faculty and the
powerless ignorance or studenlS.
For now. I only encourage the
members or the Committee IO diligently
chew on the hiscory and present policies
or residential life at Colgate.
Inconsistencies. lies and cover-ups have
been the play or the game so far. Let's
create honest and nonarbitrary rules this
time around.
For seniors, al lc&U, it
has to be what's going
10 happen next year
when we're out of
Camp Colgate.

First Amendment Watch:
Aronson's Male Bashing Discredits Argument
By Scott Worden
In response to Blake Julia Aronson's
article, "The First Amendment Describes
Our Inalienable Rights," I would like to
counter some of her own veiled prejudice
which she tries so hard to dispel. I ag,ee
entirely with her views on the first
amendment No mattu how deplorable
the signs in Cobb may have been, or how
nefarious claims or a University
supporting rape are, ii is everyone's right
to make a fool or him/hetsdf.
In her despeme effort to sound fairminded (for example, her marvelous use
or parentheses to dispel any possible
close-mindedness: "and this is a wge
generalization, as I do know many nice
[men],") Ms. Aronson fails IO present any
male point or view. I for one am
personally offended by the implicit
assertion that men are in fact all
"testosterone laden" and out to rape any
individual with two breasts and a nice
smile.
After visiting many fraternity parties
and bars, and having observed an equal
number of men and women who are
simply looking to hook up, I do not see
that men a,e the only ones who venture
out on evenings with cama1 desites. Do
not exaggerate this argument to assume
that I am justifying any form or sexual
misconduct on the principle that because
a person is looking for a good time, then
they wish to be sexually harassed or
raped. I am saying that Ms. Aronson's
commentary ignores the perspective or
the "rational male" who docs not take
every advantage he can with a woman.
Ms. Aronson also criticizes the
Univc,sity's perceived hick or care and
IIC1ion to Mrs. L'HOle's justifiable offense
taken toward the posters on the walls of
Cobb, and bet~ the lines extols the
perpetntion of abusive and provocative
speech towards tour groups and the
Colgate community by student activists.
However, she ignores the central issue,
which is the law.
On Tuesday the Supreme Coun ruled
on a case or alleged sexual harassment
brought by Teresa Harris against a
Nashville lrtlck leasing company for
having 10 put up with a boss who
repeatedly subjected her to sexually
abusive speech and demeaned her gender
in the workphlce. This case has set
precedent because it truly walks the line
between free expression and sexual
harassment
The behavior WU clearly carried Olli by
a boss on an employee in a subordinate
position, it was persistent, and he ignored
her complaints for the action 10 stop.
According to Justice Sandra Day
O'CoMor's decision, the srandard for
non-quid pro quo sexual harassment in the
workplace is no longer limited to the
finding of psychological damage in the
victim,
The hostile environment
necessary for this type or harassment is
determined by a number or factors, the
dedsion said.
"These may include the mqucncy of
the discriminatory conduct; its severity;
whether it is physically threatening of
humiliating, or a mere offensive
uttuance; and whether it unreasonably
interferes with an employees work
performance," O'Connor said.
The Cobb posters were not originally
direclcd al any one individual, the issue ol
it being a worlcptace is debatable, and the
University itself toot action to have them
removed within hours of its notification,
The contrasts in the relative severity of
these two cases is clear, and the former
has still been tossed beet and forth wllhin
the Court system.
Ms. Aronson, therefore, no mailer
how pure her mocives may be, has failed
10 recognize the difference between the
right to fnle expression and the~ right
to feel offended. By saying that Colpl,C
supports rape one may very well be
engaging in slander (not that a lawsuit is
warranted over such semanucs) and by
defacing signs and school propctt)' is
engaging in vandalism. The two forms
of expression lie not exactly analogous IO
the Constitutional r ight 10 free
expression.
When Ms. Aronson ..,. lllat the First
Amendment preserves the rigbt ro fJght
"lhe altitudes that lead IO rape" she is
right; however, cumot prolelll should
follow the Consti111tion jail u mucb as
male disagreements. Furthennore, I take
· issue with Ms.Aronson's facile and
condescending solution to possible male
outrage towards recent "anti-rape
publicity," ("unless she says yes it is
rape, when in doubt, go without. God
made hands for a reason.") Such a
simplification or the issue hardly docs
justice to complexities often incurred in
interpel'SOlla) relationships, and implies
that men's negative reaction to recent
activism has only to do with the fact that
they don't know what rape is. Ms.
Aronson then moves from the First
Amendment ro the goel of making people
less angry.
Bravo! I agree that this campus needs
to put its collective self in perspective
and realize that Colgate is not the chief
exponent of the nation's morality. After
the stalement "let us see if we can come
up with some ideas for making people
less angry," I Ml piepmed for a balanced
and ffilSOlled analysis or the problcrns in
the atlillldes or both men and women on
campus. Au contraire, all I read is a
verbal assault or the male race and its
stereotyped attitudes followed by
paragraphs rife with "male-bashing"
innuendo claiming that the male
perspective is the only problem.
In many cases it is the arrogant male
aggressor who instigates sexual
halusment and yes even rape. But as
Annamaria Locsin pe,ceplively noted in
her commenwy "The University Does
Take Rape, Sexual Assault and Sexual
8 - 1 Seriously," "[rape) happens
here, II happens al other universities, and
;I happens before and ulct c:ollege." I 100

In the Search for Gender Equity the Colgate Rowing Team is Perfect for Varsity Status
l y AadnwAa,,r
I wrire in response 10 Blake Aroo1son's
"The 1'"1111 Amendment Describes Our
Inalienable Rights" I would like to lake
issue widl M& Aroolson's reference Ill thc
Colple Women's Hockey team. She
writes that Colgate suppons "the
maintenance or women as secoock:lass
cilizens (which is why thcy can afford 10
feed thc footbell team SICalr. and lobsler
dinners at random but cannot afford IO
give thc women's hockey ream varsity
status), and anything e lse that will
improve public relations and bring in
more money.· I do not care IO debelC the
validity or this swemcnL However, I
would like IO counrer Ms. Aronson's
claim lhat "the maintenance or women as
secood-class citizens" manifests itself in
the University's refusal 10 grant the
women's hockey ream varsity swus.
There has been a lot of discussion about
gender equity in spons during the past
few years. Recently, the debate has
centetcd around the women's hockey
ream. I do not wish 10 criticize the
struggle or the team for varsity status.
However. just because the ream 61ed a
lawsuit does not mean that the ream
should be considered IO be first in line for
varsity SLIIUS. Another ream has wailed
patiently over the years to receive its
proper acknowledgment as a varsity
sport. I shall present the case for varsity
swus for the Colgate Rowing team.
Amidst all the biuer tal1t about gender
equity, many have failed to see lhat there
is a uue clement of equity at Colgare.
This equity is best illustrated by the
Colgate Crew ream. Men and women
row out of the same boat house. They
share the same equipment, from boats and
oars to the dreaded ergornerers. Men and
women rowen travel togelhet IO races in
the same vans. Most imponantly, men
and women have the same coeches. Mr.
Dan Debonis, the head coach, coaches
both the varsity men and women rowers.
Mr. Scan Tobin coaches both the novice
men and women rowen.
There is indeed a sense of a "rowing
community." The men and thc women all
know each other well, and they share in
each other's victories and in their defeats.
In addillon, all or thc Varsity coxswains
arc women. The coxswain Sleers thc boat
and commands the race. I once had a
coach who sald, "Rowers arc a dime a
dozen, but a good coxswain is hard to
find.• The coxswains arc ve,y imponant
IO the bo8I, and the women coxswains arc
considered to be just as much a pan or the
men's ream as eve,y male rower on the
boat.
All or the rowers and the
coxswains, regardless or sex, belong IO
one-,,.
or
I have painred an ideal scene gender
equity. However , I believe that this
illusuation is not enough to convince thc
Colgate community lhat the Crew ream
should have varsity status. I must also
argue that the Crew ream has earned a
right to varsity swus. During the past
few years, Head Coach Dan Debonis has
pushed Colgai.c Crew to a new level. The
ream now competes successfully against
varsity crews on a national and
iteemational level.
11 is
to present a list
the
ream's accomplishments from last year.
Colgate crew finished second in the
Patriot League Championships. The
varsity men and women had secood place
finishes, and two junior varsity men's
boats won first place medals. For the rust
time ever, Colgate crew organized the
New Yort State Championships at nearl>y
Lake Cazenovia. This event attraeled a
number of New York schools, and it was
one or the largest athletic events ever to
be organized by Colgate. The varsity
men and women both won silver medals
and qualified for the Championship
Regatta in Worcesrer, Massachusetts.
This regaUa was held afrer classes ended
last spring. The varsity women bronzed,
and the varsity men were only two
seconds from qualiCying ror thc rma1s.
Yet thc season was far from over. The
varsity squad stayed at Colgate for an
additional three weeks afrer school to
prepare for the LR.A's, a three- day
national competition between the best
crews in thecountty. Two Colgate men's
fours made it into the finals, or which one
boat came in third, returning home with
highly coveled I.R.A. medals. Again, the
season was not quire over. Colgate sent
one boat to thc prestigious Royal Henley
necessary
or
Regatta in England in early July. This
boat competed against crews from all
over thc world, and it was one of the few
boats to have a female coxswain. This
year. the ream•s goals arc even bolder,
and continued SIICCCSS is on the horizon.
Not many students know very much
about the crew ream at Colgate. Its
presence is almost unnoticeable.
However, the crew team is the largest
ream II Colgate besides thc foolball ream.
There arc about a hundred rowers and
coxswains, from novice to varsity. They
don't have CUAD shins or anything else
10 distinguish themselves from other
students. But when you are in the weight
room, they arc probably all around you.
The steady whir that you may hear from
the squash couns emanates from the
rowing machines (ergometers) on the
second floor. The team rows out of a
small boat house on Lake Morraine,
about three miles away from campus.
The crew season lasts the entire year. In
the fall, the ream competes in three mile
head races such as the Head or the
Charles. During the winier, the team
trains off the warer on rowing· machines
and in thc weight room. Once the ice
brealthe spring season. In the spring, the team
competes in two thousand meter sprint
races. Rowen dedicate two IO four hours
a day IO crew all year round. This hard
work and dedication almost goes
unnoticed.
.
The team is not concerned about
reputation and privileges. The team has
been successful with lit~e notice from the
school and The Maroon-News. The only
coverage that the team has received has
come from outside the school. NBC
news in Syracuse interviewed the team
last spring and reponcd on television that
thc team,"is the best thing 10 come out of
Colgate all year." Yet the quest for
varsity status is not about status. h is
about the team's preservation.
The proposal for varsity status really
boils down to a question of money. The
University needs 10 help the program.
The ream has been lucky to get two great
and talented coaches, Dan DeBonis, a
former Yale rower, and Scan Tobin, a
former coach for Iowa and the
Wisconsin's women's team. But, it will
be hard for the team to maintain such a
formidable coaching staff in the fu ture
with liule help from the University.
Furthermore, equipment is expensive, and
it is necessary to have good equipment in
order 10 be successful. The team derives
most of its support from gracious
donations. These funds arc used just 10
cover the basics. The financial burden is
also shifted onto the rowers. The rowers
must pay crew dues in order 10 row for
the University. Unlike varsity athletes,
rowers must also pay for food and hotels
for every race. Rowers must also shell
out $4-00 for spring training in Florida. It
is indeed very expensive, and many
rowers begin to ask themselves, "How
long can the University let this continue?"
I have tried to give a good and fair
LiUle has been said about the Colgate
description or thc crew program. Now, I
crew
team, but we are here and we arc all
must explain why the ream should have
varsity status. The political climate
surrounding varsity status and Title IX is
very tense. It would be pthe entire team, men and women, obtain
varsity status. However, it seems likely
that the University will grant only a
women's team varsity status in the near
future, in order to create a fair balance
between men's and women's sports.
Fine. I present thc women's crew team as
the first candidate. They deserve it. The
men would also benefit from this
decision. The men and women already
share the same resources.
around you. We are one hundred strong,
and we ask for varsity status. I believe
that this proposal makes sense for three
reasons. First, the size of the program
deserves attention. Secondly, it should be
iranted varsity status for the sake of
gender equity. Third, the team has camcd
its place as a varsity sport. I am not
taking anything away from the women's
hockey team, I am merely presenting a
sound case for the Colgate Crew team.
We arc not waving law books and
appealing to the courts; we are simply
appealing to reason.

The Bearded Bards Bless Colgate:

the band's music.

The band played a wide range of
songs, from "Runaway Train" to
"Mustang Sally," with much variety in
between. While the audience was small,
everyone was getting into the music.
The guy in the booth next 10 me was
playing the bongo drum alongside the
music, and it was at his request that the
band played "Mustang Sally."
The highlight of the show came when
the band played Vu, Morrison's "BrownEyed Girl," a personal favorite of mine.
Even my suite-mate was singing along;
she was really enjoying herself.
Even before I ventured to the Pub

Vi Hilbert Honors Colgate
Audience With Storytelling
By Mike Rieb•••

Vi Hilbert is a Skagit lndlan eltlct, a
scholar, a storyteller, an accomplished
author and an editor, a grandmother, a
great-grandmother, and, as was designated
recently by the state of Washing10n, a
national Living treasure She is seventy
five years old, and thinb that "It's great
fun being seventy-five years old. you get
to make up your own rules."
Finally, The Bearded Bards were a
sight rarely seen on a campus that widely
enjoys alternative music. And for me, it
was music that was cool to hear. But one
question still remains in my head: what
does "play like bastards and sing like
fish" actually mean?
When she spoke at the Cultural Center
yesterday, Vi Hilbert kept mesmerized and
smiling a full room of busy listeners
with her stories and philosophies that she
has formulated from listening and
learning all her life.

emanating from this little woman who
calls herself, " .. .an only child and bossy"
with a S'!lile on her face.
At one point, an hour into her

around and looked at the clock above het

Vi founded Lushootsced Res,arch Inc.

"I have traveled all over the world to

speak the language of the place that I am
in. We can communicate because there is
a body English that speaks to all human
beings. We can communicate without
words, no mauer who we are," Vi said.
Later, Vi went on to share with the
audience several of the stories from her
culture. The first s10ry was what she
called a "teaching tool" called a Lady Laos
story. She invited each member of the
audience to create his or her own story
and recite it at the end. The stories that
resulted were much in the spirit of what
Vi prcsmted, and were very entertaining
and educalional.
There was one tnldition or storytelling
Vi presented that the audience enjoyed
participating in each time it was used. It
is the tradition of, at the end of any story,
saying the wont "Haboo" aloud. "Haboo"
means, "We are lislening." It is a fonn of

Ten years ago Levy saw a brief scene
or lndulgtncts performed at !be Actors
Studio in New Yolk and immediately fell
in love with it. In Levy's eyes Orlock
had hit upon everylhing good theater

for the audience," yet it is also
wonderfully fuooy and sweet.
Several years ago lndulgtnces shared

In The Light
By Aaila Herl•

C•.anently living in lhe Creative
Arts House, senior Ron Shaffer has
been an active individual since his
very arrival at Colgate.
Music has been a lifelong love
for Shaffer, who played !be piano
for ten years before he injured
ligaments
in
his
hand.
ConsequcnUy, he has talcen up !be
harpsichord recently.
" My best experience al Colgate
has been studying (music( with
Vivien Slaier. "She brings out so
much in students," says Shaffer. In
the spring or 1994, Shaffer will
perform, marking the first
harpsichord recital by a Colgate
student at the University.
Another strong interest or
Shaffer's lies in student recruitment
for the university. Since his first
yCM on campus, he has been a tour
guide, worked at college fairs and
assisted wilh receptions for accepted
applicants.
More spcci ricall y,
Shaffer has worked 10 recruit
talented musicians. " It really is a
challenge because so many
(musicians!
end
up
at
conservatories," he says.
Shaffer is e nthusiastic about
Colgaie. "Everyone who is here is
lucky 10 be here. As a senior, I
only wish I had fou r more years 10
soend here."
A native of Utica. Shaffer is
majoring in English because he
wants lO "try something different."
He is presentl y looking into
graduate programs in busi ness.
Wherever his fu ture lies. Shaffer
plans on continuing his musical
work with the harpsichord and
taking up forte piano as well.
When asked about his experience
as a rcs idc.nt in the Creative Arts
House, Shaffer replies, " It has been
wonderful." The residenLs ronn "an
extended family available 10 talk co
and support you." In addition, he
adds !hat living there is definitely
fun.

Calling it Home: 11 College. Street
By Angela K. Hussein
"This is !he beginning of junk food
_ _ _ _.::Ed:•aa·,oa;,r..:·i:.a.•·..:C;;.,h:::ief.__ _ _ _ week." explained 1he nighl's chef, Jen
The ICn women of 11 College S1ree1
have assembled lhcmselvcs in one of the
house's 1wo living rooms 10 ponder the
question, "what's ii like 10 live here?"
Lisa Shum siarts. "Lifo revolves
around Days of Our Lives."
"No, don'1 pul Iha!, lhcy'rc going 10
think we're pathetic," Sarah Robinson
objeclS, but to no avail.
"Cable TV brings the house together,"
adds Kim Sicdsma.
So begins our interview.
Nine of the residcnis or the double
house, all seniors, lived together in West
Hall during lhcir first year. They began
searching for a place to live this year
during lhcir sophomore year.
The fruits of two years of effort
includes three siairways. thiny doors, and
a room known as "the outhouse." which
coniains a single furnishing: a toilet.
"Seventies iag-salc furni ture" is the
rule in most off campus houses. Some of
it can be wriucn off as kitch and
celebrated; some can only be·hiddcn. A
sci of lamps provide a lribulc to the disco
era in the living room at 11 College
S1rcet. They arc molded in absiract
silapcs that only lhc seventies could have
produced, and painted in gold, red and
black enamel.
''The furniture is ugly, but we had all
the props for our disco party. We pulled
. it off without a hitch," said Sicdsma.
The house has lwo kitchens. each
shared by five residents. Cooking duly
roia1cs nightly. A typical meal might
include chicken, vcgciable, rice and
popsiclcs, bul on the night of my visit
tuna mcllS were the order of lhc day.
Holl.
One nigh! a week, a guesl chef
prepares dinner for half lhc house. This
week , Mau Gelder made pasia fagioli
soup and apple crisp. In exchange for
1hcir cooking 1alen1s, guesl chefs can
enjoy "a free meal and grca1 company,"
said Hoh.
.
Repairs in an off-campus residence arc
no1 as simple as calling lhc buildings and
grounds dcpanmcnL For instance, when a
shower fixture began ro drip, lhc landlord
"refused to believe it leaked." A cinder
block served as a nakeshift SICp through
lhc puddle that formed on lhc bathroom
floor until ParcnlS' Weekend, when a
helpful falhcrcaulked the tub.
Living off campus also means paying
gas, eleclric and water bills, so shon
showers and lowering the heat are
essential.
"We gel in 1roublc for leaving the
waler on when we brush our teeth," said
Hoh. "We conserve more than we did on
campus, because the bills aren't on
Colgate anymore."
Independence from university services
does have bencfilS as well. "We don't
have to register our parties here," said
Nancy Ries.
"And we can be as loud as we wan!
and no neighbors knock on our walls,"
added Robinson.
While lhc house iisclf probably will
no1 be featured in I/oust Beautiful
anytime SIOOO, all lCn residenlS agree thal
it is a great place to live.
Ries summarized, "h's off campus,
and you have your own house, but it's
kind of like a dorm, since !here's always
people around .... You're never lonely."

music is us; it's how we feel."
The band must have been reeling
prcuy good Thursday night; their
perrormance was remarkable. Over the
course or its rour hour set they ran the
gamut or musical styles; not just
playing blues, but throwing in bits of
runk, jazz, reggae, and even some dreamy
Doors-ish spice.
Sophomore Eric
Wallace, who saw the Machine last year
and retumed again on November 4 10 see
them, said, "They really bridge the gap
between uaditional blues and other
modem types or music."
Although the whole band is extremely
talented, the versatility seems to emanate
front Dortch. When told that his guitar
playing dido'I appear to be a traditional
blues style, Dortch replied, "I just get up

panicular style of playing, allhough I do
have some favorites. Its really a mauer
of how you want the music 10 sound, nol
how the sounds sho uld be classified in
music."
Donch admits, however, 1ha1 the
band's roots are definite ly blues,
especially the Chicago scene. Their
progression over the years has certainly
kept them loyal 10 the blues. but they're
not afraid of experimenting with other
sounds. Whatever they play, though, is
light, well planned and extremely
entertaining. The Durnin' Chicago Blues

Florida State vs. Notre Dame
The Game of the Millennium
By Patrick Mlku•
Ma roon ,Nnin sraq
Before we get to the Game of
the Millenium, I'd like to pose
two rhetorical questions.
I) Q : Should the Mimai
Hurricanes he ranked ahead of the
Nebraska Corn buskers? A :
Positively not
If both Miami and Nebraska
wiu the ir remaining games,
Miami would play for the
National Championship before
the Comhuskers on account of
its higher position in the bowl
coalition poll . Even though
Miami already has a loss and
Nebraksa is undefeated. the AP
Poll continues to d irespect the
Comhuskers.
I simply don't understand
this. Sure, Nebraska has been
the most overrated team in
college football the past five
years. But this year's team
should not have to pay for the
inadequacies of its predecessors.
Nebraska has played a solid
schedule. The Huskers won over
Kansas State at home. They
went on the road and beat
Colorado and UCLA, who has
won six in a row.
The Comhuskers have finally
played a legitimate schedule.
·niey deserve to be ranked ahead
of Miami and deserve to have the
shot at playing for the National
c hampioship.
2) Q: Should Ohio State have
gone for the win last Saturday a1
Wisconsin with 3:48 left to
play. A: Maybe, maybe not.
Ohio State was playing a
tough Wiscosin team away and
had rallied to a 14-13 deficit with
3:48 left in the game. When
John Cooper decided to play for
a tie and kic k the exua point,
Ohio State lost mos~ if not all,
hope for a bid at the national
title. However, it remained in
the driver's seat for the Rose
Bowl.
And remember, Ohio State
almost lost as Wisconsin drove
into field goal terrltory. A great
play by Buckeye Marlon Kerner
to block Rick Scbnetzky's 33·
yard field goal attempt kept Ohio
State on Ulick for a Rose Bowl
bid against UCLA.
The reason that Ohio Si:ate
decided on the tie was e xplained
nicely by ESPN's Lee Corso:
"the Big Ten mentality is that
they'd rather go to the Rose
Bowl than go for the national
championship." The Buckyes
still have an outside shot at the
national title, but would need a
lot of help from the four teams
ranked above them currenUy.
•••
Now for the important stuff.
Florida State (9-0) at
Notre Dame (9-0):
Truly one for the ages. This
is where we find out if Florida
State has really put together one
of the best teams in college
football history. Both teams
have been scrutinized to death
throughout the season, and this
game has been anticipated since
day one. Now we can finally
focus on the game and compare
two overpowering reams.
One of the main advantages
that the Seminoles have against
Notre Dame is their Heisman
Trophy candidate, Charlie Ward.
While Kevin McDougal, the
quanerback foe the Irish, is a
solid player who can make the
15ig play, it is bard to argue tb3I
there is a better quarterback in
the country than Ward. Tbe
senior bas thrown six.teen
toudidown passes this year with
only one int=eptioo.
The Seminoles' fast break
offense revolves around the gl'C3I
scrambling abilities of Ward.
However, the Seminoles quancrback does have an exceptional
arsenal to wort with on offense
Receivers Tamarick Vanover,
Kcz McCorvey and Mau Frier
are gamebreakers. Running
backs Warrick Dunn and Sean
Jackson lead the powerful
running attack which loosens up
the defense foe big plays through
the air.
The forecast foe this weekend
in South Bend is rain, with
temperatures in the forties. Don\
look for the weather to be a big
factor against Florida State's
offense, though. The Seminoles
will he able to move the ball in
any cooditioos against a smaller
NOtrC Dame defensive unit.
Notre Dame's offense centers
around the array of fut and
powerful running backs, led by
tailback Lee Becton. McDougal
is starting to make better
decisions u bis experience
grows, and there is no question
of bis ability to run the ball.
1be Irish have a solid pair of
receivers in Clint Jobnsoo, a
former quarterback, and the
dangerous Mike M iller.
McDougal's best target might be
his talented tight end Oscar
McBride, wbo can catch and
block with the best,
My prediction is that Notre
Dame will be able to run the
ball against the Seminoles, but
the Irish can't Jet turnovers bun
them.
Both the defensive units are
Barry Bonds and Frank Thomas win MVPs.
Sports Extras of the Week
By Eric Wo lf Weleb
NotioAOl Spo,u Ediror
Two in a Row
Barry Bonds of the San
Francisco Giants was named the
I 993 National League Most
Valuable Player. Bonds is now a
three-time MVP, having won in
I 990, 1992 and I 993. Only
seven other players have won the
award three times. No one hns
won it four times.
Bonds' numbers made him
the overwhelming choice for
MVP. He batted .336 and led the
league in RBIs (123) and home
runs (46), Further, with his
addition to the team, the Giants
won a club-record 103 games.
Bonds received 24 of the 28
first place votes. The other four
votes went to MVP runner-up
Lenny Dykslta. The Philadelphia
centcrfielder had a strong year
and played exceptionally well in
the post-season for the Phillies.
The Big Hurl
In the American League,
Chicago White Sox first
baseman Frank Thomas
unamimously won 1he 1993
Most Valuable Player award.
He batted .317 10 lead the
White Sox to the AL West
pennant. His 41 home runs were
a c lub record and he finished
second in the league in RBIs
(128).
NOVEMBER 12, 1993
Off to a Good Start
The New York Knicks are
proving that they are the favorite
to win the NBA Championship
this season. In their first week of
NBA regular season action they
have gone undefeated, 4-0.
They won a big game on
Sunday against probably their
toughest opponent in the East,
the Cleveland Cavaliers. With
time running out, John Swks
hit a three-pointer to send the
game into overtime. The Knicks
went on to win I 15-107. Ewing
led the Knicks with 44 points.
Who are These Guys?
No more Kareem and no more
Magic. The Ulkers are a whole
new team this year. And
lookout! Rookies like Nick Van
Exel and Trevor Wilson have
provided a spark which may lift
them to winning season and a
playoff berth.
Van Exel, the former
Cincinatti Bearcat, is leading the
team in assists. He had six on
Wednesday night in Sacramento.
Wilson, an alumnus of nearby
UCLA, had 16 points in the
Lakers' season-opening victory
against the Suns.
James Worthy and Kurt
Rambis (in full eye-gear with
long hair) are the only veterans
from past Ulkers championship
teams. Worthy is the team's
captain and has realized the new
role he must play as a leader.
We Don't Need Mike
The Chicago Bulls are trying
their best to show they can win
without Michael Jordan. They
have taken an early lead in the
Central Division with a 3-1
record.
The solid play of rookie Tony
Kukoc is one of the main
reasons Chicago has been
winning. On Wednesday night,
the former European star scored
18 points against the Bucks. All
his points were from three-point
range.
More importantly. in the
Bucks game, Kukoc showed he
can be cluleh player. Chicago
found itself down by two with
less than 15 seconds lefL The
Bulls ran an ingenius play off an
inbounds pass to set up Kukoc
for a three pointer. He went
around a pick at the top or the
three point line and received the
pass. The shot hit no\hing but
net and the Bulls won the game.
Heading to Dallas
That is where long-time
Cleveland Browns quarterback
Bernie Kosar is going. After
being released by the Browns,
the Cowboys immediately
signed Kosar.
The Cowboys' regular Stan·
ing quarterback, Troy Aikman,
is questionable for this
weekend's game against Phoenix

smart player who rises to tbe
occuioo in big games (two

Burriss will also help the Irish

uses him as a running liact on'
goal-line situations.
The Game of the Millenium
will be close and entertaining.
Playing at booie will be a big
help to the lrisb, a team which

Holyfield has been interviewed
on Monday Night Football,
Arstnio and Letttrm411.
With retirement in sight,
Holyfield will follow the
fOOIStepS of lhe Conner chump, I
mean champ, Busier Douglas,
by rushing inlO retiremcnL By
no means will the boxing world
be the same without Holyfield.
If he decides 10 hang up tbe
gloves for good, and in tum
remove the biggest force in
boxing today, the already
disorganized boxing world will
be in shambles.
What about Mike Tyson, you
ask? Tyson would s urely put
excitement and zest back into
boxing. That is, if he decides IO
box. In a couple of years, Tyson
will be paroled and eligible to
fight. But unfOl'lunaicly for fans,
Tyson's time alone has caused
him to think about other
options. Education, not boxing,
is on lhe horizon for Tyson.
He~ already earned his high
school equivalency diploma, and
is also studying Chinese.
When he gets out, his eyes are
set on college. The only way he ·
will return to fighting is if he
needs the money for tuition.
So unless Tyson is thinking
about attending Colgaie with its
,,cfty price tag, we probably
won't see him back in lhe ring.
So who's left to fight?
Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bo we
and who? No one, really.
Maybe Foreman will come back
for another shot. Clearly there is
a lack of quality contenders,
which makes fights rare and
relatively dull.
In addition to the fighters
lhemselvcs, olher huge problems
exist with boxing. Promoters are
a major problem. Get rid of
lhem. All promoiers do is slow
down the process of seeing good
matchups. Why not creaie a
national boxing league - the
NBL. Have the fighters sign a
contract wilh the league, lo r say,
S20 million over four years or
whatever 1he fair amount might
be. Limit the role of the
" promoter" 10 .. agent. .. Grant
him the power only to negotiate
fighters contrac ts when the
contract is up. Sound fam il iar?
It should. That"s how we do it in
all the other spons.
Without promoters , figh ts
would be scheduled by the NBL. ·
Instead of waiting around until a
promoter decides to sc,t a fight,
each figh ter would have a
mandatory two fights a year, in
addition panicipating in a single
climina1ion tournament at the
end of each year to detcnnine the
number one contender. T he
winner of the tournament would
fight the current champion for
the title. This system would
give each conicnder an equal shot
at the title.
Finally, why not unify all
three crowns? The World Boxing
Association (WBA), the International Boxing Federation (IBF)
and the World Boxing Council
(WBC) s hould all become one.
It would the n clarify the true
world c hampion .
With the continuation of the
current system, boxing popularity will plummet more than it
already has. This will lead to
lack-luster fights and reinfon:e
the notion that boxing is a
~ness - and not a sport.

By Michelle Navia
Cot101, Sp(Wtl Edi10,
This year saw a change for
junior KaiUyn Lynch. No longer
can she be found in the most
defensive-minded position on the
soccer field. She has moved up
to stoppet. where she has been
able to be more mobile.
"I moved up to stopper and
Jessica [Tuthill] is playing
swcepe,. Personally, I like it a
lot belier just because I am more
involved in the play and I can
get more into the offense," said
Lynch.
Against Army, in the finals
of the Patriot League
Championships, Kaitlyn had the
opportunity to move up even
funher and play midfield.
"I like more combination
play and passing. You can do
that more in the midfield. When
I was playing sweeper, I felt like
I was just clearing balls out and
not able to contribute as much.
I'm not any high scorer or
anything like lhat, but I like to
see plays crealed.•
Kaitlyn was able to net four
goals on the season and chalk up
two assists for a point total of
ten. She started in all of the
Raiders' games this season.
Lynch was named to the
Univemty of Connecticut Puma
Classic all-tournament ieam and
she has received Patriot League
fi rst team honors for two
consecutive seasons.
The Raiders
had a
disappointing lose in overtime
to Army in the finals, despite
overcoming a three goal deficit
in the second half to send the
game into overtime. The ieam
ended the regular season with a
13-4-2 overall record. They also
qualified for ECAC post season
play.
"This is definitely the most
talented ieam that Colgate has
ever seen. We have had a few
tough breaks as far as injuries,
but our team has still been able
to compcie 81 a higher level and
I think that says a lot about the
depth of our team,• said Kaitlyn.
Off the field, Kaitlyn is a

Kaitlyn is on the junior class

"It's difficult trying to unite
your class junior year, because
half the class is away and the
other half is leaving, Thal is one
of thc most challenging aspeclS
of our job."
In Kaiilyn's high school,
there was a program similar to
Colgate's safe rides, but not
quite IS 1111Cccssful. When she
saw it here during her first
winter "when it was about left

''The first time I weal out and

..CSICd Becca Gal-.
If you look up Galves in the
S1ooen1 Directory, you'll find
Bea:a's home town lisced u
Fulton, NY. But she grew up
and went to school in New
Mexico; that is where home is
to Becca.
Becca is a four year staner on
the volleyball ceam. She was
named the Patriot League
Rootie or the Year her first year
at Colgate and in her junior year
she was named the Player or the
Ycar for the League.
"One high point would be
receiving Rookie or the Year,
because ii was not a great year
ror me. I was a freshman playing
with four seniors and a junior
and there was ' lillle old me. h
was kind or aazy."
Before coming to Colgate,
Becca was involved in both
cennis and volleyball.
''The question people always
ask me why I chose volleyball
instead or tennis. I was a three
time stale champion in high
school. Volleyball offered
something new 10 me. I had
been playing tennis siricc I was
nine. It was in junior high that I
picked up volleyball ... just the
aspect of having 10 get six
people on the court to have the
same goal at the same time.
Every time lhe ball comes over
the net, that is probably the
ullima1e for me."
"My junior year I foll
pressure to pcrform,just because
I was the only returning threetime starter. I was the one
people looked to 10 motivate the
leall1 and to make the Ir.ills, so
last year WU lOllgh.
"But Ibis year I don't feel tbat
pressure, because I came in wilh
the straiegy that I bad really
accomplished everything I had
SCI OUI to do. This year I just
really wanced to have Cun. It's
been Cun because I know it's the
last season and I know I'm never
going to be playing volleyball
again at this level."
What makes Becca 's
outstanding play even more
amazing is tbat ror the past three
yca,s, she has been playing with
a dislocaced shoulder, an injury
she incurred during her
sophomore year.
When she's not on the court,
Becca is a geography major. She
stumbled upon geography her
first-year. She was planning on
becoming a history major, but
she couldn't find her niche in
tbat department
During her second semester
here, she needed 10 fill her
schedule wilh a fowth class.
"I had take n human
geography in my freshman Call
and I wasn 'I really taken by it I
just needed a fourth course ror
lhe spring and I enrolled in a
300-levcl geography course. And
the professor ... Ellen Kr.dy was
just amazing. She has taken me
under her wing. I guess she saw
a spark in me," she said.
This second geography course
led Becca inlO a major.
"Once I got into the
geography department, all the
professors were 8JC8L"
Since then, she has become a
rcscan:h assistant and Ibis spring
she will be traveling 10 San

Next year, she is planning on

because we don'l value ii

Becca will probably be

Raiders Fall in 4th, Hand
Fordham Its First Win
By Cbris Folty
Maroo,.,.NcW8 S1aJf
Last Saturday, a fired up
Fordham offense accumulaled a
total of 403 offensive yards and
led the Rams to their first
victory of the season. The
Fordham attack came mostly
through the air as quarterback
Joe Moorhead completed 2S of
42 passes for 291 yards.
Meanwhile, the Colgate
offense sputtered against one of
the Patriot League's worst
teams. Senior quarterback Bill
McDuffec passed for only 24
yards on eleven attempts and
four completions. Senior
quarterback Chris Lane, who had
just come off a knee injury,
went four of 11 for 78 yards. In
total, the Red Raider offense
gained a measly 140 yards for
the game.
''They weren't a better team
than we e,pcctcd," said head
coach Ed Sweeney. ,i,ey were
just on target on both sides of
the ball and we weren't as ready
as we should have been. They
controlled the line and moved the
ball on us. We lost the battle in
the l!enches and that's where
football games are won."
One of the few highlights for
the Red Raiders came in the
second quarter when sophomore
inside linebacker Jeff Nichol
interceptcd a Moorhead pass on
the Colgate 3S-yard line and
returned the ball 65 yards for a
touchdown.
"We played well in spots,"
said Sweeney of Colgate's
defense. "We were out thcte for a
lot of snaps and the field
conditions were tough because of
the mud. We're not big so we
have to use quickness, but we
lost a lot or our mobility due to
bad footing." .
In the Hrst quarter, the Rams
dominated. For nine and a half
minutes Fordham conl!Olled the
ball and on their second
possession, the Rams put
together a si• play, 54-yard drive
and took a 7-0 lead.
At the stan or the second
quarter, Nichol's interception
brought Colgate back into the
game. After the touchdown,
however, place kicker Steve
Franco's extra point attempt was
blocked and the Red Raiders still
fouad themselves down by one
widl the sco,e 7-6.
"Aflcr the blocked extra point
and the kickoff return to the
fifty, we lost any momentum we
had from Nichol's touchdown."
said Sweeney.
For the rest of the half neither
team got much offense going
until Fordham took over, after
holding Colgate, on its own 40·
yard line. From there Moorhead
was able to lead the Rams down
to the Colgate 6-yard line, where
Mruk Ruoff kicked a field goal
to give Fordham a 10 -6
advantage going into half-time.
In the second half, the Red
Raider offense seemed to come
out rejuvenaled. Aflcr wanning
up on its Hrst possession of the
half, which only lasted three
plays, Colgate's offense took
contIOI on its next possession.
After a sus)ained drive, which
started on their own 37-yard line,
the Red Raiders managed to put
six on the board when Chris
Lane completed a 7-yard
touchdown pass to senior wide
rtceiver Torn Nadl.
In the fourth quarter, with
four minutes left in the game,
Fordham staned out from its
own 23-yard line. Three minulCS
later, Moorhead had led the
Rams down the Held, and after a
17-yard touchdown psss to John
S1rnuss made the scoie 17-13.
Fordham had its first victory
of the season. With the loss,

With the Pa11iot League
Tournament coming up this
weekend, the Colgate women's
volleyball team had hoped to end
its season on a high note.
However, after winning nine of
their last ten matches. the Red
Raiders were swept in three
straight games in their matches
with Cornell and Hofstra.
Colpi.c finished the season with
an 18-7 overall reconl.
In the first game of the
Cornell match, Colgate took a
commanding 13-2 lead, but was
unable to get the final two
points to win the game. They
allowed Cornell to rally and win
the game, 14-16.
· Coach Janet Little felt that
Cornell's comeback really
shifted the mornenwni or the
match into Cornell's hands.
"It is hard to dcflase a team
aflct a comebeclt like that." said
Little.
Colgate 1081 the second game,
5-15, and then, despite having
another lead, allowed Cornell to
win gamc tine, 13-1S.
Despite losing tbc match to
Cornell, the high point of the
weekend occurred when senior
Becca Galves recorded her
l,OOOlh career kill in the match.
Entering the weekend's play,
Galves needed just 3 kills to
reach 1,000. She left no doubl
about it, racking up 33 kills in
the two weekend matches, IS
corning against Cornell and 18
against Hofstra. Galves is the
first Colpie volleyball player in
recorded history to achieve the
1,000 kill milestone.
Following their defeat to
Cornell. the Red Raiders moved
on to face Hofstra. Tbc result
there was more of the same, as ·
Hofstra downed Colgate 8-1S,
13·1S and S·IS.
''Thcy conl!Olled the pace in
