members.  Sister  Mary  Elizabeth 
O'Connor  (S.  Alma  Virgo  to  many 
alumni  and  friends).  She  served  St. 
Joseph's  since  1955  as  Treasurer  and 
Chief  Business  Officer.. .and  so  much 
more. 


S.  ANNE  BEHRE  RECEIVES  DIOCESAN  TRIBUTE 


Sister  Anne  Behre,  Ed.  D.,  Assistant 
Professor  in  the  Child  Study 
Department,  was  presented  recently  with 
the  "Ubi  Caritas  Deus  Ibi"  Award,  the 
highest  honor  bestowed  by  Diocesan 
Catholic  Charities.  The  ceremony  took 
place  at  the  Bishop's  Annual  Anniversary 
Dinner-Dance. 


S.  Anne  Behre  (center)  is  congratulated 
hy  S.  Jean  Marie,  Chairman  of  the  ChiUI 
Study  Dept.,  and  Dr.  Lenore  Kelly. 
(Sociology  Dept.). 


In  his  letter  announcing  the  award. 
Thomas  A.  DeStefano,  Executive 
Director  of  Catholic  Charities,  Diocese 
of  Brooklyn,  cited  Sister  Anne's 
"leadership,  devotion  and  concern  for  the 
growth  of  the  church  and  the  people  of 
our  Diocese." 

Long  renowned  for  her  work  with  the 
deaf.  Sister  Anne  Behre  opened  and 
supervised  the  first  school  for  the  deaf  in 
Flushing  in  I960,  with  a  modest 
enrollment  of  four  children.  During  her 
2 1  years  at  St.  Francis  de  Sales  School  for 
the  Deaf,  registration  grew  to  250 
students,  new  facilities  were  opened  in 
Brooklyn  and  State  funding  was 
awarded. 

"We  are  truly  fortunate  to  have  Sister 
Anne  on  our  Child  Study  faculty  teaching 
those  who  aspire  to  a  career  in  special 
education,"  said  S.  George  Aquin,  "and 
we  congratulate  her  on  this  much 
deserved  honor." 


For  those  who  lived  and  worked  with 
Sister,  it  was  clear  that  her  approach  to 
death  was  as  direct  and  courageous  as  her 
approach  to  life.  No  one  could  fail  to  be 
inspired  by  her  grasp  of  what  was  and 
what  was  to  be. ..her  calm  resignation  and 
unflinching  faith. 

Her  loss  will  be  felt  by  many  in  a  variety 
of  ways.  As  a  member  of  the 
Congregation  of  the  Sisters  of  St.  Joseph 
for  over  52  years,  she  will  be  missed  by  her 
community  as  a  beloved  Religious.  As  a 
professional,  she  will  be  missed  as  a 
knowledgeable,  competent  colleague.  As 
a  compassionate  friend. ..she  will  be 
missed  by  us  all. 

(Sister  George  Aquin's  tribute  read  at 
the  Mass  of  the  Resurrection  will  appear 
in  the  Summer  Alumnagram).

year's  commencement  in  that  the 
Division's  first  valedictory  speech  was 
delivered.  Maureen  Thomas,  one  of  the 
distinguished  graduates  recognized  by  the 
Division  for  their  achievements,  delivered 
the  speech.  Ms.  Thomas  felt  honored  to  be 
the  first  valedictorian  and  hoped  to  fully 
represent  the  thoughts  of  her  fellow 
graduates.  For  her.  balancing  the 
responsibilities  between  her  job,  her 
family,  and  school  was  difficult,  but  she 
enjoyed  the  education  process.  She  plans 


to  attend  graduate  school  and  work 
towards  an  MBA. 

Carroll  Hinds,  who  was  the  top 
graduate  in  the  class,  felt  that  it  was  a  great 
experience,  although  she  procrastinated 
for  ten  years  before  returning  to  school. 
She  said  it  was  the  warm  and  friendly 
environment  of  the  College,  which  gave 
her  support  and  guidance,  that  helped  her. 
She  believes  that  the  programs  are  geared 
so  that  the  adult  population  can  achie\e 
without  loss  of  quality  in  education. 

Anita  Moore,  another  distinguished 
graduate,  first  came  to  St.  Joseph's  College 
because  of  the  convenience  of  the  off- 
campus  extension  sites.  She  believes  that 
being  taught  by  working  professionals 
brings  more  real  life  situations  to  the 
classroom.

specialists.  In  addition,  it  is  a  service  to 
public,  private,  city,  state  and  national 
agencies  which  have  visited,  participated 
in,  learned  from,  and  imitated  the 
College's  model  program. 

The  nursery  school  first  opened  its 
doors  to  Vk  to  5  year-olds  in  the  College's 
main  building  at  245  Clinton  Avenue,

tional skills  so  vital  in  the  recruitment  and 
admissions  process.

CLARE  ROSE  PLAYHOUSE  UNDERWAY  AT  PATCHOGUE  CAMPUS 


Construction  of  the  Clare  Rose 
Playhouse  at  the  College's  Patchogue 
Campus  has  begun.  Slated  as  a  199-seat 
off-Broadway  style  open  space  theatre,  the 
new  lake-side  structure  will  function  as  a 
teaching  area  for  the  College's  drama 
program  and  as  a  performance  base  for 
the  dramatic  group.  In  addition,  local 
residents  will  be  invited  to  participate  in 
community  theatre  projects  and  children's 
theatre  workshops. 

The  Playhouse  represents  a  unique 
relationship  between  Clare  Rose,  founder 
of  Clare  Rose.  Inc.  of  Patchogue.  and  the 
College.  Mr.  Rose  designated  St.  Joseph's 
as  the  recipient  of  a  $35,000  contribution 
resulting  from  the  Long  Island  Charities 
Foundation  Dinner  Dance  in  June,  at 
which  he  was  honored.  (This  grant  will  be 
the  primary  funding  vehicle  for  the 
theatre.) 

Throughout  the  summer,  Mr.  Rose, 
Sister  Grace  Edna,  Director  of  the  College 


Drama  Group,  and  a  number  of  drama 
students  have  worked  diligently  to 
renovate  an  existing  frame  house  which 
will  serve  as  the  new  theatre's  lobby,  box 
office  and  dressing  room  area.  The 
addition  to  this  building  will  be  the 
performance  area. 

"Mr.  Rose's  personal  involvement,  his 
willingness  to  work  shoulder  to  shoulder 
with  us,  and  his  tremendous  assistance 
with  technical  and  structural 
recommendations  have  been  a  vital  part  of 
this  project,"  said  Sister  Grace  Edna. 
"And  the  wonderful  rapport  he  has 
established  with  the  students — his  genuine 
warmth  and  kindness  toward  them  have 
truly  affected  them.  They  see  him  as  a  role 
model  and  respond  to  his  real  dedication 
and  sense  of  community." 

Sister  Grace  hopes  that  the  Clare  Rose 
Playhouse  will  be  completed  for  the  spiing 
production  of  the  rousing  musical 
comedy,  "They're  Playing  Our  Song." 


Clare  Rose  (right)  works  with  architect  and 
construction  crews  as  foundation  for  the 
playhouse  is  dug.  Mr.  Ro.\e  has  also  been 
instrumental  in  getting  donated  services  and 
goods  from  local  firms.

CLARE  ROSE  PLAYHOUSE  OPEIVS  JIWE  2Nn 


For  most  of  us,  "a  dream  come  true"  is 
for  other  people. ..or  if  it  does  happen  to 
us  at  all,  it  is  rarely  so  predictable  that  we 
can  give  it  a  name,  a  date,  or  a  place. 
However,  for  Sister  Grace  Edna  Rowland, 
Assistant  Professor  of  Speech  Commun- 
ication and  Director  of  the  Drama  Club, 
her  dream  come  true  is  so  real  that  it  has  a 
name  -  The  Clare  Rose  Playhouse  -  it  has 
a  dale  -  June  2,  1985  -  and  it  has  a  place- 
Lakeside  at  St.  Joseph's  College,  Patch- 
ogue. 

It  is  on  that  date  and  in  that  place  that 
the  Clare  Rose  Playhouse  will  officially 
open  its  doors  as  the  College's  beautiful, 
new  Repertory  Theatre. 

Sister  Grace  has  worked  on  that  dreain 
for  o\  er  two  years,  studying  \  arious  types 
of  theatrical  architecture,  discussing  tech- 
nical lighting,  sound  and  floor  plans 
with  designers,  and  e\  aluating  a  number 
of  programs  and  productions  which 
would  serve  both  student  and  community 
needs. 

When  the  planning  was  completed,  all 
that  remained  was  the  funding.  Clare 
Rose,  a  proininent  Patchogue  business- 
iTian,  helped  the  College  leceive  an  initial 
grant  of  S35,000  from  the  Long  Island 
Charities  Foundation.  Since  that  time. 


Mr.  Rose  and  his  colleagues  in  the  Long 
Island  business  community  have  joined 
together  to  provide  cash  and  contributed 
goods  and  services  sufficient  to  complete 
the  project.  "Clare  Rose  put  his  heart  and 
soul  into  this  venture,"  said  Sister  Grace. 
"No  one  has  worked  harder  or  longer 
than  he  -  that  kind  of  dedication  just 
doesn't  carry  a  price  tag." 

So  -  on  June  2,  the  College  celebrates 
the  opening  of  the  Clare  Rose  Playhouse 
with  a  presentation  of  the  Neil  Simon 
comedy  "They're  Playing  Our  Song" 
and  a  gala  reception  and  dedication  ceie- 
inony. 

Some  dreams  do  come  true!

On  Thursday,  March  28,  St.  Joseph's 
College  hosted  an  Orientation  Workshop

unique  program  developed  by  BECA 
(The  Brooklyn  Educational  &  Cultmal 
Alliance)  and  funded  by  the  office  of  the 
Brooklyn  Borough  Piesident. 

Through  this  effort,  eight  of  BECA'S

Child  Developinent,  City  of  New  York. 
Each  program  focuses  on  a  concept 
(color,  nature,  animal  life,  city  living) 
and  enables  preschool  children  to 
"explore'thecomept  and  then  "express" 
their  perceptions  through  related  creative 
activities. 

Sister  Alice  Francis,  Associate  Pro- 
fessor of  Child  Study  at  St.  Joseph's,  is 
serving  as  consultant  evaluator  to  the 
pilot  program  which  will  run  through 
July  1985. 

"Each  member  institution  has  done  an 
outstanding  job  of  presenting  its  own 
area  of  expertise  in  a  most  creative  and 
effective  manner.  .  .  appropriate  to  the 
youthful  participant,"  said  Sister  Alice. 
"The  Workshop  allows  dav-care  admin- 


istrators the  opportunity  to  meet  repre- 
sentatives froin  each  institution  and  to 
choose  those  piograms  which  will  best 
serve  their  youngsters." 

Sister  George  Aqiun  opened  the  Work- 
shop by  welcoming  Borough  President 
Howard  Golden  and  J.  Richardson  Pratt, 
Jr.,  Piesident  of  Pratt  Institute.  Also,  the

ment perspectives  and  expectations  in 
planning  field  trips.

PIATHOUSE  OPiaf  S  AT  PATCHOGUE  CAMPUS 


In  the  beginning.  .  .  Clare  Rose,  S.  Grace 
Edna  and  S.  Virginia  Therese  had  a  tiny 
house.  .  .  and  a  dream.  .  . 


So.  .  .  Sister  Grace  tore  down  walls.  .  . 


Clare  Rose  put  up  beams. 


They  both  planted  bushes  and  set  down  sod. 


The  Clare  Rose  Family  joined  the  SJC  Family  to  celebrate  the 
fruits  of  their  labor.  .  . 


The  flag  was  raised. 


A  portrait  unveiled. 


And  the  curtain  rose  on  actors  Bob 
Arthur  and  Michele  Stanions  and  on  a 
new  cultural  era  at  St.  Joseph's  College.  . 
a  dream  come  true! 


On  Sunday,  June  2,  the  Clare  Rose 
Playhouse  officially  opened  its  doors  as 
the  newest  cultural  center  on  Long 
Island. 

Clare  Rose,  prominent  Patchogue  busi- 
nessman and  prime  contributor  to  this 
venture,  was  honored  at  a  dedication 
ceremony  held  between  matinee  and 
evening  performances  of  Neil  Simon's 
"They're  Playing  Our  Song".  Over  250 
guests  attended  the  gala  held  under  a 
festive  yellow  and  white  tent  set  up  on  the 
football  field  near  the  lakeside  theatre. 

L'nder  the  directorship  of  Sister  Grace 
Edna  Rowland,  the  Playhouse  has  sche- 
duled an  outstanditig  summer  schedule.

COLLEGE  MOURNS  THE  DEATH  OF  SISTER  VIRGINIA  THERESE  CALLAHAN 


On  October  1,  Sister  Virginia  Therese 
Callahan,  C.S.J. ,  Vice  President  and 
Dean  of  the  Suffolk  Campus,  died  at  the 
Maria  Regina  Con  vent  of  the  Sisters  of  St. 
Joseph  in  Brentwood  after  a  long  illness. 

It  would  be  impossible  to  adequately 
assess  Sister  \'irginia's  vital  role  in  the 
growth  and  development  of  St.  Joseph's 
College.  Her  leadership  was  felt  at  the 
Brooklyn  Campus  as  well  as  in  Suffolk. 
As  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  and 
of  the  President's  Council,  she  was 
instrumental  in  spearheading  many 
creative  and  innovative  aspects  of  curri- 
cularandextia-curricular  life  at  SJC.  Her 
spirit  and  enthusiasm  were  per\asi\e  and 
contagious.  E\erything  was  "do-able". 
The  Patchogue  Campus  stands  as  a  visible 
tribute  to  her  faith  and  her  talent. 

Sister  \'irginia's  affiliation  with  St. 
Joseph's  extends  back  to  1947,  when  she 
joined  the  College's  chemistry  depart- 
ment. Later,  as  Diiector  of  Development, 
she  was  instrumental  in  the  construction 
of  the  Dillon  Child  Study  Center  and 
McEntegart  Hall.  In  1967,  she  became 
Principal  of  the  Mary  Louis  Academy, 
and  in  1969,  assumed  that  responsibility 
at  the  Academy  of  St.  Joseph  in  Brent- 
wood. In  these  roles,  and  also  as  a  member 
of  the  General  Council  of  the  Sisters  of  St. 
Joseph,  for  a  decade,  Sister's  ex(  eptionai 
qualities  as  administrator  and  educator 


became  well  known.

HOMILY  GIVEN  AT  THE  FUNERAL  OF 

.SISTER  A'IRC;iNA  THERESE 

Sacred  Heart  Chapel,  Brentwood  —  October  5,  1985 

Inc.Khul  ihe  three  readings  you  ha\ejusl  heard.  I  find  something  speaking  about  the  liicand 
person  oi  Sister  \'iiginia  Therese.  C;orresjx)ndiiii?l\ .  I  find  her  enhant  iiig  the  mc.ining  of  se\ eral 
lines  in  each  selection. 

The  last  lines  of  the  section  ol  ihc  Bookol  Job  read  lo  us  were  these:  "Whom  I  myself  shall  see; 
my  own  eyes,  not  another's  shall  behold  him:  and  from  my  flesh  I  shall  see  God,  my  inmost 
being  is  consumed  with  longing  '.  Vou  ccjuld  not  come  near  Virginia  and  remain  \erv  long  in 
her  presence  without  feeling  her  strong  failh  in  the  living  God.  I  am  not  thinking  about  the 
lec  ilation  of  the  .Apostles'  Greed  with  the  full  commitment  of  a  Catholic  mind,  but  of  the  reality 
that  the  Cjeed  points  to,  of  the  living  lealily  which  is  the  source  of  all  being.  "My  own  eyes,  not 
another's  shall  behold  him.  My  inmost  being  is  consumed  with  longing."  These  words  speak 
eloquently  of  \'iiginia's  mind  and  heart  and  personalitv.        , 

In  the  second  reading  I  find  these  words  of  St.  Paul  panic  ularh  \eiified  m  \irginia's  life.  "We 
know  that  while  we  dwell  in  the  body,  we  are  away  liom  the  Lord.  .  .  We  would  inuc  h  rather  be 
awa\  from  the  bcxiy  and  at  home  with  the  Lord.  This  being  so,  we  make  it  our  aim  to  please  him 
whethe]  we  are  with  him  or  awa\  from  him."  I  confess  that  I  admired  and  envied  Sister 
X'irginia's  balanced  laiili,  especially  in  recent  years,  when  she  was  first  stricken  with  cancer.  She 
faced  the  threat  of  death  with  serene  courage.  She  also  was  determined  lo  remain  on  the  job  as 
long  as  the  Lord  would  allow  her.  If  she  gave  in  to  panic  when  cancer  came.  I  did  not  perceive  it. 
And  it  she  sjjared  herself  at  work  after  recovery.  I  saw  no  signs  of  it. 

This  ability  to  have  the  roots  of  her  being  in  two  worlds  probably  accounts  for  the  fact  that  she 
was  at  the  same  time  the  most  prac  tical  of  realists  and  the  most  imagin.itive  of  idealists.  My  own 
personal  preference  is  for  idealism.  Ihe  support  of  good  friends  who  were  my  companions  in 
ministry  made  up  for  mv  deficienc  ies  in  the  practical  world  of  management.  From  my  special 
vantage  |)oint.  her  excellence  in  both  areas  was  a  matter  of  wonder  and  admiration.  What  a  gift 
she  brought  to  her  Communities!! 

When  I  asked  some  of  the  Sisters  to  perform  a  liturgical  dance  at  my  Golden  Jubilee 
celebration  I  nearly  fell  off  my  chair  when  Virginia  volunteeied  to  be  one  ol  the  group.  When  the 
day  came,  the  dance  was  one  of  the  highlights  of  a  very  joyful  occasion.  The  stately  Dean  of  St. 
Joseph's  College  might  not  have  been  the  nimblest  dancer  there,  but  she  was  outstanding:  she 
was  the  tallest.  I  shall  never  foigel  the  happiness  she  brought  to  the  occasion.  It  seemed 
strikingly  .ip[3ropriate  to  find  in  the  refrain  ol  the  opening  hv  mn  of  this  Mass  the  line:  "May  our 
tears  be  turned  into  dancing." 

j'o'ui  17:2''-26.  .  ."Jusl  Father,  the  world  lias  not  known  you.  but  I  haie  known 
you:  and  these  men  have  known  that  you  sent  me.  To  them  I 
have  re-vealed  your  name,  and  !  with  ontinue  to  rei'eal  it  so  that 
yinir  love  for  me  ma\  liir  in  them,  and  I  may  live  in  them." 

It  IS  in  the  third  reading  that  I  liiid  \'irginia  most  fullv  expressed.  My  insight  is  borrowed  from 
Father  John  Shea  of  C:hic  ago,  my  lav  orite  conlemjjorary  theologian.  In  writing  of  the  mission  of 
Jesus  to  bi  ing  his  heav  enly  Fathei  lo  mankind,  John  Shea  asks  the  question:  "What  was  it  about 
Jesus  that  mediated  the  div  ine?  Did  be  speak  the  words  of  God?  Yes,  but  more.  Did  he  do  the 
deeds  of  Ciod?  Yes.  but  more.  It  was  the  very  person  of  Jesus,  his  core  self  that  made  the  divine 
accessible.  Meeting  Jesus  meant  more  than  exchanging  words  or  sharing  actions.  When  anyone 
really  met  Jesus,  the  encounter  moved  through  words  and  actions  to  their  secret  source,  two 
people  personally  present  to  one  another.  " 

More  than  most  of  us  X'irginia  was  able  to  be  present  to  others  with  the  core  of  her  being.  This 
gentle  woman  had  allowed  herself  to  encounter  Jesus  in  a  way  that  drew  the  very  roots  of  her 
person  to  the  life  that  Jesus  shared  with  his  father.  .\nd  all  of  us  were  enriched  by  that.  In  the 
presence  of  \'irginia  you  could  be  free  without  thinking  about  it.  In  the  presence  ol  Xirginia  I 
found  it  easy  to  be  mvself. 

In  my  personal  pantheon  there  are  several  people  who  were  close  to  me  in  hie  and  no  longer 
walk  the  earth.  I  regard  them  as  "imperishable"  people  whose  lives  were  so  vibrani  that  it  is 
impossible  for  me  lo  im.igine  them  .is  being  less  th.in  fully  alive  and  happy,  .\mong  ihem  are  mv 
own  mother  who  lived  to  be  a  hearty  ninelv-one.  Doroibv  Day  whose  life  touched  mine  when  I 
was  young,  and  Father  Charles  Bovd.a  humble  pi  iesi  whom  some  oi  vou  mav  remember  as  I  do. 
as  a  man  who  was  always  "wiili  it".  Xiiginia  is  now  with  them  in  the  companv  of  the  most 
living.

Her  gifts  were  exercised  to  the  fullest  as 
a  member  of  a  number  of  boards  of 
trustees  and  advisors,  including  those  of 
the  St.  Francis  de  Sales  School  for  the 
Deaf,  the  Seminary  of  the  Immaculate 
Conception,  Brookhaven  Memorial 
Hospital  Medical  Center,  Catholic  Chari- 
ties, and,  of  course,  St.  Joseph's  College, 
where  she  was  also  secretary  to  the  Board. 

Each  one  who  knew  Sister  Virginia  has 
been  touched  and  enriched  by  her.  Each 
will  mourn  her  loss  in  a  unique  way.

I  offer  my  deepest  sym[3athy  to  you  who  are  grieving  here  today,  far  more  deeply  than  I  can, 
because  your  lives  were  more  completely  and  intimately  bound  to  her  than  mine.  I  pray  with  you 
that  her  loving  Father  will  give  her  whatever  she  needs  now  to  dance  with  the  perfect  joy  and 
freedom  that  her  life  presaged.  May  she  come  dancing  to  meet  each  of  us  as  we  are  called  into  the 
fuller  life  with  our  Father.

Reflection  after  Communion  -  Sister  John  Raymond 

"No  gift  IS  proper  to  a  Deity 
No  fruit  IS  worthy  for  such  power  to  bless 
If  you  have  nothing,  gather  hack  your  sigh 
And  with  your  hands  held  high 
Lift  up  your  emptiness." 
These  lines  of  Jessica  Powers  were  favorite  to  Sister  Viiginia  Therese  -  and  those  who  knew 
her  well  can  readily  see  why.  For  despite  her  many  gifts  of  keen  intellect  -  blessed  with 
remarkable  powers  of  analytic  thinking  -  logic  -  synthesis  and  evaluation,  her  gifts  of  joy. 
delicate  sensitivity,  composure,  willmgness  to  risk,  to  dare,  to  dream,  to  envision  and  to  make 
things  happen,  I  truly  believe  Sister  Virginia  saw  all  these  as  gifts  of  God.  Aware  of  her  own 
emptiness,  like  Mary,  Mother  of  God,  she  made  her  "Fiat"  and  was  ready  and  open  to  God's 
wondrous  ways.  She  readilv  acknowledged  -  that  He  who  is  mighty  has  done  great  things  to  me. 
She  loved  life,  li\'ed  it  well  and  fully  and,  I  believe,  without  scruple.  She  at  led  out  of  a  deep 
commilmenl  to  the  Lord  and  responded  generously  and  capably  to  the  needs  of  her  chemistry 
students,  to  the  call  to  adminisualion  at  Mary  Louis,  the  Academy  of  St.  Joseph  and  St. 
Joseph's  College  in  Patchogue,  to  the  Congregation's  election  as  Couni  illor  foi  two  terms,  to 
the  Boards  of  Trustees  with  which  she  shared  her  insights,  and  to  all  whom  she  met. 

The  last  several  times  I  visited  her  sick  room  in  Maria  Regina,  I  saw  near  her  bed  a  copy  of  a 
book  entitled  Resurrection  and  knew  her  thoughts  were  on  that  reality.  No  longer  was  it  time 
for  plannmg  on  her  yellow  pad  in  her  inimitable  writing. 

Shortly  after  her  death,  I  opened  the  book  to  where  she  had  a  marker: 

"True  compassion",  it  said,  "brings  together  love  and  justice  so  that  caring 
for  others  demands  a  response  to  their  need.  This  happens  first  m  face-to- 
face  relationships.lt  is  never  enough  to  love  people  in  the  abstract  without 
loving  the  particular  people  whose  Iwes  intertwine  with  ours.  .  .  Face-to- 
face  compassion  is  a  willingness  to  respond  to  the  need  of  the  person  we  see 
in  front  of  us." 
Sister  Viiginia  Therese  readily  gave  such  a  response,  giving  time  and  attention  to  the  pel  son 

she  encountered  at  the  moment.  She  had  a  magnificent  gift  of  eliiiting  lo\e,  admiration, 

respect  and  loyalty  and  a  very,  very  special  talenl  for  peicei\  ing  others'  gifts  and  eniouraging 

and  fostering  their  development. 

As  was  her  custom  to  face  directly  whatever  situation  lay  before  her,  aflera  valiant  struggle  to 

maintain  health,  she  accepted  the  reality  of  her  impending  death,  inspiring  all  who  watc  bed 

her  weaken. 

In  the  book  pie\iously  cited.  I  found  h.iiul  written  lines  from  a  dear  friend  who  wiole  the 

words  of  Juliana  of  Norwich  — 

"And  to  all  this  our  courteous  Lord  answered, 

to  gii'e  me  comfort  and  patience: 

Suddenly  you  will  be  taken  out  of  all  your 

pain,  all  your  sickne.ss,  all  your  unrest 

and  all  your  woe.  And  you  will  come  up 

aboi'e  and  you  will  have  me  for  your  reward 

and  you  will  be  filled  full  of  joy  and  bliss, 

and  you  will  never  again  have  any  kind  of  pain, 

any  kind  of  sickness,  any  kind  oj  displeasure,  but  always  joy  without  end. 

Why  then  should  it  afflict  you  to  endure  for  awhile,  since  it  is  my  will  and 

to  my  glory." 

On  the  feast  of  St.  Therese,  Sister  Virginia  Therese  quietly  breathed  her  last,  surrounded  by 
some  of  those  whom  she  loved,  and  in  the  lines  of  the  responsorial  psalm  of  the  day,  I  am  sure 
she  exclaimed,  — 

"In  you.  Lord,  I  hai'e  found  my  peace." 

And  being  Sister  Virginia  Therese,  I  am  sure  that  for  her  brothers  Jack  and  Jerry,  for  her 
relatives  and  many  friends,  and  for  the  Congregation  which  she  loved  dearly,  she  will 
continually  ask  of  the  Lord,  — 

"Dear  God,  fill  them  with  your  lox'e  and  your  peace."

Instructor  Andrew  Taylor,  CPA,  discusses 
new  accounting  major  with  students. 

AcconTXTiivG  Major 

Sister  Mary  Florence  Burns,  Academic 
\'ice  President,  has  announced  that  the 
New  York  State  Education  Department 
has  registered  a  new  accounting  major 
for  both  the  Brooklyn  and  Patchogue 
campuses.  Upon  graduation,  students 
would  receive  a  Bachelor  of  Science 
Degree  and  would  be  eligible  to  sit  for  the 
CPA  exam. 
f  St.  Joseph's  students  will  have  a  special 
"  advantage  in  this  field  of  professional 
accounting,  since  their  accounting  pro- 
gram is  strongly  based  in  the  liberal  arts, 
ilius  providing  them  with  the  intellectual 
foundation  necessary  for  the  broader 
application  of  their  technical  skills. 

"B\  integrating  the  technical  require- 
ments for  accounting  with  the  broader 
conceptual  knowledge,  we  will  graduate 
an  educated  professional,  capable  of 
meeting  the  challenge  of  business  in 
Kxiay's  society ."  said  Sister  Mary  Florence. 
The  Admissions  Offices  at  both  cam- 
puses expect  at  least  a  10%  increase  in 
applications  as  a  result  of  this  announce- 
ment.

further  educators'  knowledge  of  advertis- 
ing and  thus  provide  students  with  better 
training.  She  worked  on  the  .\ir  Force 
account,  examining  factors  which  influ- 
ence the  propensity  of  youth  to  join  the 
military.

logy major,  Kevin  received  a  grant  from 
the  Sloan  Foundation  for  an  8-week 
program  at  the  Institute  of  Public  Policy

Arbor.  Some  of  his  courses  covered  ethics, 
industrial  policy  sex-based  wage  differ- 
entials and  urban  policies  as  they  apply

SJC  DRAMA  CLUB  AT  BISHOP  KEARNEY  H.S. 


Who  says  SJC  doesn't  have  a  "knack 
for  networking  "?  One  alumna  has  made 
her  Freshman  Honors  English  class  a 
vital,  vibrant  learning  experience  -  and 
has  used  the  drama  club  at  St.  Joseph's 
College  (Patchogue)  to  help  obtain  that 
goal. 

Marie  Mackey  '84  (former  U.A.  presi- 
dent) is  on  the  faculty  of  Bishop  Kearney 
H.S.  in  Brooklyn.  In  preparing  an 
innovative  curriculum  for  her  talented 
freshmen,  Marie  asked  Sister  Grace  Edna 
Rowland,  Diret  tor  of  the  College's  Clare 
Rose  Playhouse  and  moderator  of  its 
drama  club,  to  take  her  current  produc- 
tion of  "Vanities"  on  the  road. 


So.  .  .  late  one  afternoon  in  March,  the 
gym  at  Kearney  was  alive  with  theatre,  as 
SJC  students  Laura  LoManto  and  Claudia 
Oilman,  together  with  alumna  Cindy 
Noble  presented  a  rousing  performance 
to  Marie's  class,  their  friends,  B.K. 
administrators  and  faculty.  After  the  play, 
students  had  the  opportunity  to  discuss 
the  plot,  characterization,  and  interpreta- 
tions with  the  actresses  and  Sister  Grace. 

"I  was  thrilled  to  ha\e  this  opportunity 
to  bring  this  added  dimension  to  my 
class,"  said  Marie.  "And,  we  welcome  the 
opportunity  to  bring  the  College  to  a  top 
high  school,  "  added  Sistt-*^  Grace.

BIO/PRE-MED   MAJOR   OFF  TO  "SPACE   CAMP" 
GRANTED  A  SPOT  IN  NASA's  SUMMER  PROGRAM 


"I  can't  wait  for  summer  -  this  one  will 
be  the  most  exciting  of  my  life!" 

If  you  sense  a  feeling  of  great  expecta- 
tions. .  .  you're  right!  This  statement  was 
made  by  Gregory  Branch  a  j  unior  biology 
pre-med  student  at  St.  Joseph's  College 
in  Brooklyn. 

Gregory  had  just  received  word  from 
NASA  that  he  has  been  selected  as  one  of 
thirty  students  from  across  America  and 
its  possessions  to  participate  in  the  1986 
Space  Life  Sciences  Training  Program  to 
be  held  at  the  Kennedy  Space  Center, 
from  June  9th  to  July  18th.  In  addition, 
Gregg  qualifies  for  a  week  of  intensive 
training  at  the  Alabama  Space  and  Rocket 
Center  in  Huntsville  from  July  18th  to 
July  26th. 

"I  can't  believe  I'll  actually  be  working 
on  experiments  slated  for  a  space  flight." 
hecontinued.  "And. . .  we'll  learn  how  to 
develop  and  conduct  the  test  protocols, 
plan  and  execute  a  shuttle  crew  training 
session,  assist  in  the  design  and  testing  of 
preflight  and  postflight  procedures,  and 
conduct  ground  tests  of  hardware  and 
equipment  and  then  analyze  and  evaluate 
postflight  data.  " 

Sound  like  too  much  to  absorb  in  seven 
weeks?  Not  for  Gregg.  He  came  to  St. 
Joe's  on  a  full-tuition  scholarship  from 
Xaverian  High  School  in  Brooklyn.  The 
challange  of  SJC's  demanding  pre-med 
program  has  established  him  as  a  solid 
student  -  he  is  on  the  Dean's  List  and  has 
gained  membership  in  two  prestigious 
honor  societies,  Sigma  Iota  Chi  and  Delta 
Epsilon  Sigma.  His  on-campus  exploits 
don't  stop  there.  He  is  the  Undergraduate 
Association  Treasurer  and  has  served  on 
eight  clubs  and  committees,  including 
the  College  Advisory  Council,  the  Dance 
Club,  the  Chapel  Players  (dramatics),  the 


Chorus  Club,  the  Photography  Club, 
Footprints  (yearbook),  the  Folk  Group 
and  the  Gaelic  Society. 

In  addition,  Gregg  is  the  first  student 
to  be  featured  in  a  series  of  new  ads  high- 
lighting the  achievements  of  SJC  students 
and  grads. 

Off-campus,  Gregg  is  very  active  in  his 
parish  and  the  St.  Agnes  Alumni  Associa- 
tion Board.  He  also  works  25  hours  a 
week  at  Mercy  Home  for  children  in 
Brooklyn  as  Direct  Care  Counselor  to 
mentally  handicapped  adolescents.  His 
mterest  in  the  handicapped  stems  from 
his  volunteer  duties  at  St.  Vincent's 
Mentally  Handicapped  Home  when  he 
was  an  SJC  freshman. 

"I  have  had  every  opportimity  to  grow 
and  develop  my  interests  here  at  St. 
Joseph's,  "  said  Gregory.  "The  size  of  our 
classes  p>ermit  individual  experimentation 
and  a  close  working  relationship  with 
faculty  and  other  students.  It  has  been 
perfect  for  me." 

Gregory  is  awaiting  the  results  of  his 
MCAT  tests  and  plans  to  apply  to  a 
number  of  medical  schools  this  fall. 

"I  hope  I've  done  well  enough  to  be 
accepted  into  a  medical  school  for 
September  '87.  .  .  preferably  one  in  New 
York  State.  I  love  New  York." 

Another  expectation!  Anyone  care  to 
bet  against  it? 


Athletic  Director  Frank   Mulzoff  explann

MULZOFF  NAMED  A.D. 

Frank  B.  Mulzoff,  SJC's  former  basket- 
ball coach,  has  been  appointed  Director

the  rapid  development  of  that  campus

student  population. 

In  additon  to  recreational  and  intra- 
minal  programs,  the  College  also  expects

mainstreaming  developmentally  delayed 
preschool  children. 

After  months  of  planning  and  careful 
production,  the  thirty-three  minute  tape 
has  been  completed  and  is  ready  for 
distribution  to  other  colleges  and  imiver- 
sities.  libraries,  clinical  settings,  develop- 
mental centers  and  parents' organizations. 
Sister  Helen  believes  the  program  is  a 
much  needed  tool  in  the  "wholistic" 
education  of  handicapped  children. 

"Traditionally,  a  special  child  receives 
an  education  geared  specifically  to  his  or 
her  disability,"  said  Sister  Helen.  "This 
type  of  program  provides  very  narrow 
experiences.  We  believe  our  approach  lo 
mainstreaming  -  dealing  with  the  disa- 
bility as  only  a  part  of  the  education 
process  within  a  normal  setting  -  helps 
children  develop  a  sense  of  confidence 


and  a  realistic  sense  of  themselves  so  that 
they  can  be  fimctional  people  within  the 
larger  society.  " 

The  Dillon  Center  serves  approximately 
100  children  -  eight  of  whom  are  in  the 
special  program.  This  class  has  two  full- 
time  teachers  and  three  part-time  special- 
ists -  a  speech  therapist,  a  psychologist 
and  a  parent  coordinator.  This  class 
spends  part  of  its  day  with  the  regular 
kindergarten  group  in  standard  activities.

Clare  Rose  Piavhouse  celebrates  First  Birthday 


The  Clare  Rose  Playhouse  is  fairly 
bursting  with  energy  and  enthusiasm  - 
much  of  which  is  spilling  over  to  its 
friends  and  neighbors  in  the  Suffolk 
Community. 

In  early  spring,  the  Playhouse  held  a 
benefit  performance  for  Mercy  Center,  a 
residence  for  homeless  girls  ages  16-21. 
"The  Rink"  was  the  Playhouse's  June 
production  and  played  to  sold-out  audi- 
ences. 

Scheduled  for  the  remainder  of  the  year 
are  Neil  Simon's  rousing  comedy, 
"Chapter  Two",  which  will  run  July  24, 
25,  26,  26,  27,  31 ,  and  August  1 ,  2,  and  3; 
"Deja  Revue",  a  cabaret  show,  slated  for 
Sept.  27  and  28;  "Storytelling  Swap",  on 
Oct.  3  and  4;  "Night  Mother",  Nov.  7,  8. 
9,  14,  15,  and  16  (with  a  special  Alumni 
matinee  performance  on  Sunday,  Nov. 
9th  at  3  p.m.,  preceded  by  brunch  at  the 
Pine  Grove  Inn);  and  the  popular 
Children's  Theatre  to  run  the  week  of 
December  15th. 

With  all  this  activity,  one  would  think 
the  First  Anniversary  of  the  Playhouse 
might  have  slipped  by  unnoticed.  Not  so! 
To  celebrate  the  healthy  baby's  first 
birthday  (June  2),  Sister  Grace  Edna 
Rowland,   Director  of  the  Playhouse, 


planned  a  dinner  cruise  aboard  the 
Patchogue  River's  "Bay  Mist".  Over  100 
guests  enjoyed  the  four-hour  cruise,  a 
performance  of  "Deja  Revue",  and 
dancing  to  the  music  of  a  popular  DJ. 

The  evening  was  so  successful,  it  will 
probably  become  an  annual  event.  Over 
$1,400  was  raised  for  the  Playhouse.

broaden  the  experience  and  backgrounds 
of  our  students,"  said  Mr.  Brown.  "It  is

that  new  methods  of  health  care  will  be 
discovered  and  implemented".

"OPEN  HOUSE**  PROGRAM 

Recently  both  campuses  of  St.  Joseph's 
College  held  Open  House  programs  which 
drew  hundreds  of  prospective  students, 
parents,  friends,  and  high  school 
counselors. 

Featured  events  included  campus  tours, 
visits  with  departmental  chairmen  and 
faculty,  club  presentations,  demonstra- 
tions, and  scholarship  and  financial  aid 
advisement. 

Representatives  of  the  Admissions 
Office  were  on  hand  to  provide  registra- 
tion information  and  facilitate  individual 
and  group  interviews.  Marion  Salgado, 
Director  of  Admissions  at  Patchogue, 
and  Roseanne  Henry,  coordinator  of 
Special  Programs  at  Brooklyn,  agreed 
that    most    inquiries    centered    around

careers  m  medicine,  law.  business,  and 
teaching. 

"Our  new  accounting  major  is  certainly 
gainingatlention".  remarked  Ms.  Henry. 
"People  are  also  recognizing  the  ad\ant- 
ages  of  combining  traditional  liberal  arts 
majors,  like  history.  English,  or  langu- 
ages, with  a  business  component.  It 
provides  an  added  dimension  to  their 
professional  abilities  and  enhances  their 
career  opportunities". 

She  added,  "of  course,  everyone  is 
concerned  about  finances  -  so,  our 
generous  financial  aid  packages  were  a 
welcome  surprise  to  many.  They  couldn't 
believe  that  o\er  87%  of  our  students 
receive  some  form  of  aid  -  making  SJC

SOCCER  AT  SJC 

This  fall,  Gary  Smith,  a  true  "soccer 
pioneer"  in  Suffolk  County  soccer  for  the 
past  21  years,  accepted  the  challenge  to 
create  a  successful  "class"  soccer  program 
at  St.  Joseph's  College,  Patchogue 
Campus.  It  now  appears  that  Coach 
Smith  and  the  inaugural  SJC  Golden 
Eagles  soccer  squad  ha\  e  successfully  met 
that  challenge.  As  we  go  to  press,  the 
fledgling  hooters  have  compiled  a  respect- 
able record  of  two  wins,  five  losses  and 
one  tie. 

The  enthusiasm  that  has  been  moun- 
ting at  the  Patchogue  Campus  overflowed 
with  a  great  turnout  for  the  newly 
introduced  "family  day"  soccer  game  on 
Saturday,  October  1 1  th.  Over  75  Golden 
Eagle  soccer  fans  witnessed  the  defeat  of 
visiting  Molloy  College  with  a  score  of 
4-2  in  the  best  offensive  showing  of  the 
year. 

Coach  Smith  was  ob\iously  pleased 
with  the  team's  success.  "We  have  played 
well  in  our  first  year,"  he  said.  "One  of 
our  stated  goals  was  to  be  competitive, 
and  we  have  achieved  that."

For  the  fourth  consecutive  year,  the 
Long  Island  Invitational  Basketball 
Tournament,  sponsored  by  the  Patch- 
ogue  Rotary  International  and  local 
businessmen,  was  held  at  the  Physical 
Education  Center  at  the  Patchogue 
Campus. 

The  Tourney  of  the  "small  four",  St. 
Joseph's  (Patchogue),  Southern  Vermont 
College  (Bennington).  Seton  College 
(Yonkers),  and  Molloy  College  (Rockville 
Center),  played  before  a  large  and 
enthusiastic  crowd  -  both  the  attendance 
at  Friday  night's  opening  round  and 
Saturday's  championship  game  set  re- 
cords. 

The  championship  and  consolation 
game  match-ups  were  established  on  the 
tournament's  opening  evening  (Friday) 
with  Seton  defeating  Molly  College  89-

SJC's  Jim  McCormack  was  given  the 
Student  Athlete  Award,  while  Joe  Fitt 
and  Rocco  Pascalli  secured  berths  on  the

DELTA  INDUCTIONS 

SJC's  Epsilon  Chapter  of  Delta  Epsilon 
Sigma  recently  inducted  new  members  in 
ceremonies  at  both  campuses.  This 
prestigious  national  honor  society  is  for 
undergraduates,  faculty  and  alumni  of 
colleges  and  universities  with  a  Catholic 
tradition.  Eligibility  is  restricted  to 
candidates  who  have  evidenced  dedication 
to  intellectual  activity,  and  who  have 
accepted  their  responsibility  of  service  to 
others. 

The  Brooklyn  Campus  induction  cere- 
mony was  held  on  March  29,  with  three 
juniors,  six  alumnae,  and  one  faculty 
member.  Sister  Helen  Kearney,  Director 
of  the  Dillon  Child  Study  Center,  re- 
ceiving membership.  Dr.  Stanley  Nevins, 
Professor  of  Philosophy,  delivered  the 
address. 

The  Suffolk  campus  ceremony  was

juniors,  nine  seniors,  five  alumnae,  and 
Sister  Dorothy  Watson,  Administrative 
Librarian  at  Patchogue,  were  inducted. 

The  continued  growth  of  SJC's  Epsilon 
Chapter  is  a  strong  demonstration  of  the 
commitment  to  academic  excellence 
which  has  been  a  tradition  at  St.  Joseph's 
since  1916. 


SCIENCE  SEMINARS  FOR  HIGH  SCHOOL  STUDENTS 


Sister  Mary  Maier  (Chemistry  Depart- 
ment, Brooklyn)  thought  that  high  school 
students  would  enjoy  spending  Saturdays 
in  the  College's  labs  and  on  directed  field 
trips.  From  that  idea  came  "Experiences 
in  Scientific  Research:  A  Complimentary 
Offering  for  High  School  Students," 
which  the  science  department  provided 


SJC  Offers  CrImlnalJustlce  Certificate  Program 


The  New  York  State  Education  Depart- 
irieiit  has  approved  the  College's  Ciiininal 
Justice  Certificate  Program  which  will  be 
offered  at  both  campuses  in  Brooklyn  and 
Patchogue,  New  York.  The  24-credit 
program  is  open  to  any  major  at  St. 
Joseph's  College  as  well  as  to  practitioners 
in  the  law  enforcement  field  who  are 
interested  in  returning  to  school  for  the 
certificate  only. 

According  to  Dr.  William  Bengston, 
an  Associate  Professor  of  Sociology  with 
a  specialty  in  criminology,  "Students 
will  receive  both  theoretical  and  practical 
exposure  to  the  criminal  justice  system 
and  will  develop  widely  applicable  skills 
in  research  designs,  data  analysis,  and 
applied  statistics.  The  combination  of 
skills  isa  primary  attraction  to  the  program. " 

The  faculty  involved  in  the  Criminal 
Justice  Certificate  Program  are  quick  to 
point  out,  however,  that  the  program  is 


not  intended  as  technical  law  enforcement 
training.  '"The  courses  stress  the  ability 
to  think  critically,  to  evaluate  and  to 
access  research,  policy,  and  their  con- 
sequences. These  are  important  skills 
that  are  currently  being  sought  by 
employers  throughout  the  criminal  jus- 
tice field  as  well  as  by  law  schools," 
explained  Barbara  Morell,  Assistant 
Professor  of  Sociology  and  a  graduate  of 
the  S.U.N.Y.  Albany  School  of  Criminal 
Justice. 

"The  certificate  is  of  particular  im- 
portance in  contemporary  times  like 
ours."  notes  attorney  David  Hilgendorff, 
Assistant  Professor  of  Political  Sciences. 
"The  certificate,  in  combination  with  a 
science  degree,  provides  the  student  with 
both  skills  and  an  educational  background 
that  can  translate  into  numerous  occu- 
pations." 


during  the  spring  semester,  at  no  cost  to 
the  students. 

The  original  program  consisted  of  two 
groups  of  three  Saturday  sessions,  with  a 
weekJend  off  in  between.  Each  session 
focused  on  a  topic  in  chemistry,  biology, 
or  physics.  However,  when  announce- 
ments were  sent  to  area  high  schools,  the 
response  was  so  great  that  a  third  set  of 
Saturday  laboratory  experiences  had  to 
be  scheduled. 

Twenty-two  private  and  public  high 
schools  were  represented,  including 
Forest  Hills  H.S.,  FontbonneHall,  Bishop 
Kearney  and  Jamaica  H.S. 

Assisting  S.  Mary  Maier  were  Dr.  Carol 
Hayes  and  Dr.  Moira  Royston  of  the 
Biology  Dept.  and  S.  Mary  CordeTymann 
of  the  Physics  Dept.  All  hope  the  program 
will  be  a  regular  part  of  the  College's 
contribution  to  the  cominunitv.

cast,  provided  new  choreography  for  the 
well-known  musical  routines. 

"We  are  breaking  new  ground  in  several 
ways."  said  Dr.  Robert  Radus.  Director  of 
Chapel  Players  and  Professor  of  French 
at  SJC.  "Our  leading  players  were  black 
students  assuming  roles  usually  perform- 
ed by  white  actors  and  actresses  .  .\nd.  .  . 
the  involvement  of  our  cast  in  the  creative 
aspects  of  the  production  provided  a 
refreshing  vigor  and  enthusiasm."

MULZOFF,  (Patchogue  Campus)  is  in- 
terviewed during  a  recent  visit  to  the

shown  when  Coach  Mulzoff  was  featured 
on  Bill  Chadwick's  'Big  Whistle"  sp>orts 
show  on  March  2nd.  On  .\pril  6th,  both 
Mr.  Muzoff  and  basketball  coach  Jim 
Murphy  were  hotline  guests  on  "The  Big 
Whistle"  with  members  of  the  team. 

The  reason  for  the  TV  time  is  the 
interest  which  has  been  generated  in  our 
athletic  program  in  Patchogue.  ■A.s  new 
team  sports  have  been  introduced,  an

Alumna's  Gift  Tripled  By  EXXON 


Mark  S.  Rose 

TRUSTEE  ELECTED 

Frederick  T.  Shea,  Chairman  of  the 
College's  Board  of  Trustees,  has 
announced  the  election  of  Mark  S.  Rose 
to  the  Board.  Mr.  Rose  has  been  an  active 
member  of  SJC's  Suffolk  Campus  Advisory 
Board  for  over  a  year,  giving  leadership 
and  promoting  a  number  of  projects, 
including  the  popular  Clare  Rose  Play- 
house, named  in  honor  of  his  father. 

A  graduate  of  Siena  College,  Mr.  Rose 
is  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  Clare  Rose 
Inc.  He  also  serves  on  the  Board  of 
Trustees  at  Siena  and  has  served  on  the 
Boards  of  the  Hewlett  School  and  the 
Leway  School.  He  is  past-president  of  the 
Blue  Point  Lions  Club  and  was  Chairman 
of  the  South  Brookhaven  Heart  Fund 
Dinner  Dance. 

A  major  business  executive  in  Suffolk 
County,  Mr.  Rose  is  affiliated  with 
Reliance  Heating,  Therm  A  Trol ,  Quick- 
way  Courier  Service,  Rose  Spice,  Inc., 
and  Apple  Sports,  Inc.  He  has  been 
honored  for  his  charitable  work  by  such 
organizations  as  Cooley's  Anemia  and 
Muscular  Distrophy  Foundations. 


The  Matching  Gift  Program  is  alive 
and  well  at  St.  Joseph's  College! 

For  many  years,  major  companies  and 
organizations  throughout  the  country 
have  instituted  matching  gift  programs 
both  as  a  means  of  distributing  their  own 
corporate  and  foundation  contributions 
to  worthy  charitable  organizations.  .  . 
and  as  an  incentive  for  employees  to 
make  private  donations.  Such  gifts  have 
always  been  a  major  source  of  income  for 
the  College's  many  scholarship,  grant, 
and  academic  development  programs. 

During  this  year's  Alumni  Phonathon, 
SJC's  "pledge  board"  received  a  major 
jolt  when  an  alumna,  who  works  for 
Exxon,  pledged  $5,000  for  three  conse- 


cutive years  which  will  be  triple  matched 
by  the  corporate  grant  -  resulting  in  a 
total  gift  of  160,000.  The  alumna,  who 
wishes  to  remain  anonymous,  is  working 
with  John  Roth,  the  College's  Chief 
Business  Officer,  to  determine  how  her 
contribution  might  best  be  utilized  for 
the  benefit  of  our  students. 

"This  is  a  wonderful  example  of  indi- 
vidual donors  joining  with  the  business 
community  to  provide  much  needed 
resources",  noted  Alumni  Director,  Mary 
Elizabeth  Farrell.  "We  encourage  our 
alumni  and  friends  to  determine  if  their 
donations  are  eligible  for  a  match.  If  they 
are  in  doubt,  we  urge  them  to  call  their 
employer. . .  or  our  office  for  infonnation." 


General  Studies  Registers  New  Programs 


The  Division  of  General  Studies  has 
instituted  two  exciting  offerings  -  a  B.S. 
degree  program  in  Management  of 
Human  Resources  and  a  certificate 
program  in  Leadership  and  Human 
Resources  Development. 

The  new  major  is  designed  to  promote 
career  ad  vancemen  t  and  enables  working 
adults  to  attain  the  credentials  and  skills 
essential  for  effective  management. 

The  certificate  program  is  a  12-credit, 
four  course  offering.  While  these  certi- 
ficates are  available  at  the  two  campuses, 
SJC  conducted  on-site  classes  at  Ridge- 
wood  Savings  Bank  and  Flushing  Savings 
Bank.

This  baseball  season  holds  special 
interest  for  fans  throughout  the  New 
York  area. 

SJC  has  sponsored  Mets  broadcasts 
heard  on  WBAZ-FM  since  it  began 
carrying  the  games  last  year.  As  a  result  of 
their  amicable  association,  St.  Joseph's 
and  the  Southold-based  station  are  co- 
sponsoring  a  new  scholarship  program 
for  listeners  which  may  be  applied  to 
either  the  Brooklyn  or  Patchogue  cam- 
puses. Regular  scholarshipcriteria  apply. 

Heard  "loud  and  clear"  on  the  North 
and  South  forks  (where  WFAN  radio 
sometimes  fades)  WBAZ-FM  provides 
excellent  advertising  coverage  to  L.I. 
studentsandcity-dwellers  who  try  to  beat 
the  heat  on  the  East  End.

a  lavish  dinner,  live  entertainment,  and 
dancing  to  the  music  of  a  popular  D.J.

quickly  become  an  integral  part  of  the

(Excerpts  from  an  address  by  Gerald 
Cestare  86,  Former  president  of  U.A. 
(Suffolk  County) 

I  was  asked  to  speak  about  the  ways  in 
which  SJC  has  challenged  me  to  live  out 
a  value-oriented  education. . .  one  thing  I 
could  single  out  that  has  made  a  difference 
is.  .  .  one  must  never  be  afraid  to  take  a 
risk.  That  challenge  was  made  my  first 
day  here  by  S.  Virginia  Therese  Callahan, 
the  Dean  at  the  time.  She  said  that  the 
College  -  and  life  -  for  that  matter,  would 
only  be  as  exciting  and  fulfilling  as  I 
made  it.  She  said  to  ask  at  least  one 
question  everyday  -  and  listen  closely  to 
the  answer.  I  did  this,  and  I  assure  you 
that  I  will  never  forget  this  place  or  her. 

I  soon  became  involved  in  student 
government.  .  .  my  first  risk.  The  next.  .  . 
realizing  I  will  never  please  everyone.  .  . 
acting.  .  .  and  li\  ing  through  times  when 
I  really  had  to  put  my  reputation  on  the 
line. 

The  latest  risk.  .  .  choosing  between  a 
lucrative  job  as  an  advertising  representa- 
tive at  Newsday  or  as  Director  of  Public 
Relations  for  Youth  Focus,  a  relatively 
new  organization  which  presented  the 
opportunity  of  working  with  teenagers 
struggling  with  problems  and  choices  of 
their  own.  I  wanted  to  inake  a  differnce- 
so-I  chose  Youth  Focus.  .  .  I  have  never 
been  happier. 

Whatever  career  you  choose.  .  .  you 
have  the  power  to  change  things.  .  .  be 
pleased  with  the  work  you  do.  .  .  the 
future  truly  is  in  your  hands.  The  task 
ahead  is  to  better  the  world  we  live  in. 
Take  the  risk!

ST.  JOSEPH'S  COLLEGE  •  BROOKLYN,  NEW  YORK  1 1205  •  PATCHOGUE,  NEW  YORK  1 1772 


RECORD  HIGH  ENROLLMENT  AT  ST.  JOSEPH'S 


As  the  Fall  Semester  settles  into  its 
second  month,  St.  Joseph's  College  has 
recorded  another  all- time  high  in  student 
enrollment  at  its  Suffolk  Campus  in 
Patchogue  and  in  total  enrollment  at 
both  its  Brooklyn  and  Patchogue  Camp- 
uses -  now  at  2,450. 

Marion  Salgado,  Director  of  Admis- 
sions( Arts  &:  Sciences,  Patchogue),  reports 
a  15.3%  increase  in  freshmen  and  a  10% 
overall  increase  in  entrants,  including 
transfer  students.  The  Division  of  General 
Studies'  enrollment  in  Suffolk  is  490,  a 
dramatic  16%jumpoverFall  '86 figures. . . 
with  new  entrants  up  43%.  Total  enroll- 
ment for  both  divisions  there  is  1 ,545  -  up 
9%. 

According  to  Sister  Jean  Marie  Amore. 
Academic  Dean,  a  primary  reason  for  the 
growth  of  the  Patchogue  Campus  is  the 
College's  outstanding  reputation  for  its 
strong  academic  programs  -  especially  in 
the  areas  of  child  study  special  educa- 
tion, business,  accounting,  the  sciences, 
and  therapeutic  recreation.  .  .  the  only 
four-year  degree  program  of  its  kind  on 
Long  Island. 

New  programs  offering  the  B.S.  in 
Nursing  and  the  B.S.  in  Management  of 
Human  Resources  have  contributed  to 
the  expansion  of  the  Division  of  General 
Studies.  In  addition.  Dr.  Thomas  G. 
Travis,  Dean  of  the  Division,  credits  the 
development  of  off-campus  sites,  the 
registration  of  new  certificate  programs, 
and  flexible  scheduling  as  significant 
factors  in  this  growth  pattern. 


With  a  tuition  rate  of  S4,500  per  year, 
St.  Joseph's  is  the  least  costly  of  all 
private  colleges  in  the  New  York  area. 
Generous  scholarship  and  financial  aid 
packages  are  available  through  the 
Financial  Aid  Office. . .  which,  according 
to  Financial  Aid  Director  Carol  Sullivan, 
accounts  for  the  fact  that  almost  87%  of 
SJC's  students  receive  some  form  of 
financial  assistance  -  federal,  state,  or 
college  funded. 

"We  make  every  effort  to  make  an  SJC 

education  affordable,"  said  Mrs.  Sullivan. 

"It  is  that  effort  and  psersonal  interest  in 

our  students  which  have  resulted  in  our 

unprecedented  growth."

GRUMMAN  AND  EATON 

Recently,  Sharon  Grosser,  Manager  of 
Community  Support  Programs  for  Tlie 
Grumman  Corporation,  awarded  a  grant 
of  S5,000  to  tfie  College  for  the  purchase 
of  a  graphic  design  computer  station  for 
the  Art  Department  in  Patchogue. 
Another  major  contributor  to  the  project 
is  the  Eaton  Corporation. 

Since  the  establishment  of  the  Suffolk 
Campus  in  1979,  the  student  body  has 
grown  dramatically.  Correspondingly, 
the  Art  Department  has  increased  its 
offerings  and  its  scope  to  try  to  keep  pace 
with  accelerated  demands.  (Now,  more 
than  twelve  classes  per  semester  are  offered 
and  are  quickly  filled  to  capacity.  .  . 
serving  over  250  students  per  semester). 

One  area  of  demand  by  art  students 
majoring  in  child  study,  business,  and 
therapeutic  recreation  is  graphic  design 
where  students  require  the  use  of  a 
specialized  computer  and  software  for 
technical  illustration,  layouts,  and  typo- 
graphy in  order  to  produce  professional 
logos,  newletters,  publications,  and 
brochures. 


CORP.  AWARD  GRANTS 

Sister  Patricia  Manning,  Chairperson 
of  the  Art  Department,  is  pleased  that 
these  grants  will  provide  students  with 
design  skills  for  a  variety  of  careers  and 
professions,  including  graphic  arts,  teach- 
ing, business,  science,  public  relations, 
advanced  education,  and  communication.

Diane  Ravitch,  well-known  author, 
lecturer,  and  teacher,  appeared  at  St. 
Joseph's  College  Brooklyn  Campus  on 
Monday,  November  9,  and  addressed 
"Our  Schcxjls  and  Our  Culture",  to  an 
audience  of  mainly  high  school  and 
college  students  and  faculty. 

An  adjunct  professor  of  History  and 
Education  at  Teachers  College,  Cxilumbia 
University,  Dr.  Ravitch  is  the  author  of 
What  Do  our  17  Year-Olds  Know  (with 
Chester  E.  Finn,  Jr.);  The  Schools  We 
Deserve:  The  Troubled  Crusade:  American 
Education,  1945-1980:  The  Revisionists 
Revised:  and  The  Great  School  Wars: 
New  York  City,  1805-1973. 

In  addition,  she  has  edited  several  books, 


including  Against  Mediocrity:  The 
Humanities  in  America's  High  Schools 
(with  Chester  Finn.  Jr.  and  Robert 
Fancher),  and  Challenges  to  the  Human- 
ities, with  Chester  Finn,  Jr.  and  Holley 
Roberts.  Her  more  than  150  articles  and 
reviews  in  The  New  York  Times,  The 
Washington  Post,  The  American  Scholar, 
and  The  New  Republic  have  established 
Dr.  Ravitch  one  of  the  most  widely  read 
educators  of  our  time. 

Dr.  Ravitch's  expertise  is  appreciated 
"coast-to-coast".  She  is  a  former  Guggen-

New  (Sites  For 
General  (Studies 

In  order  to  make  college  courses  more 
convenient  for  busy  working  adults,  SJC 
has  established  off-campus  extension  sites 
throughout  the  New  York  and  L.I.  area. 
Thus,  adults  at  over  twenty  hospitals  and 
businesses  are  able  to  take  courses  towards 
certificates  and  degrees  right  where  they 
work. 

Certificate  Programs  in  Gerontology, 
Home  Care  Administration,  Health 
Instruction,  Health  Counseling,  Health 
Staff  Development,  Leadership  &  Human 
Resources  Development,  Management, 
and  Data  &  Information  Processing  are 
among  the  most  popular  offerings. 

Most  students  then  pursue  a  bachelor's 
degree  by  attending  either  of  SJC's  two 
campuses.  There,  degree  programs  are 
offered  in  the  areas  of  Community  Health, 
Health  Administration,  Nursing  and 
Human  Management  Resources. 

By  providing  working  adults  with  an 
opportunity  to  pursue  studies  which  will 
enhance  their  career  potential,  the 
Division  of  General  Studies  continues  to 
grow.  Presently,  it  serves  over  1100 
students  -  up  a  dramatic  11%  over  last 
year. 

Each  year,  more  sites  are  opened. . .  the 
most  recent  are  located  at  Booth  Memorial 
Medical  Center  in  Flushing,  Astoria 
General  Hospital,  Long  Island  City, 
Brunswick  Hospital  Center  in  Amityville, 
and  Franklin  General  Hospital  in  Valley 
Stream.  Additional  sites  are  planned  for 
Manhattan  and  the  Bronx. 

Health  care  facilities,  banks,  insurance 
companies  and  other  major  corporations 
are  suitable  as  new  sites.

PRESTIGIOUS  SUMMER  GRANT  FOR  BROOKLYN  BIOLOGY  MAJOR 


An  SJC  senior  biolog\  major,  Milagros 
Vidot,  participated  in  a  ten-week  Medical 
Education  Reinforcement  and  Enrich- 
ment Program  at  Tulane  University 
Medical  Center  this  summer.  Among  the 
sixty-four  students  chosen  throughout 
the  United  States.  Milagros  was  one  of 
the  five  selected  from  New  York  State. 
The  competition  required  that  each 
applicant  write  an  essay  on  the  topic, 
"Why  Do  I  Want  To  Go  To  Medical 
School."  Letters  of  recommendation  and 
a  high  grade  point  average  were  also 
required.  Ms.  Vidot,  who  knew  that  she 
wanted  to  be  a  doctor  since  the  third 
grade,  feels  that  the  training  she  has 
received  at  St.  Joseph's  has  prepared  her 


well  for  tliis  advanced  summer  workshop. 

High  on  the  agenda  were  courses  in 
biology,  physiology,  math  review,  calcu- 
lus, statistical  analysis,  physics,  chemistry 
and  analyzing  data.  In  addition,  seminars 
on  current  health  related  topics  were  held 
regularly  and  each  evening,  the  students 
were  required  to  complete  computerized 
course  reviews. 

"Millie"  decided  to  come  to  SJC  after 
meeting  Dr.  Carol  Hayes,  Chairperson  of 
the  Biology  Department,  at  an  informal 
scholarship  committee  meeting  -  she 
realized  that  a  smaller  school  would  suit 
her  needs.  Last  year,  Milagros  participated 
in  the  summer  medical  students'  program 
at  the  University  of  California  at  Irvine.

Eileen  Mullen  Named 
Admissions  Director 

It  has  been  announced  that  Eileen 
Mullen  has  been  appointed  Director  of 
Admissions  of  the  College's  Division  of 
Arts  and  Sciences  at  its  Main  Campus  in 
Brooklyn. 

Formerly  Assistant  Dean  in  the  Division 
of  General  Studies,  Ms.  Mullen  has  taught, 
lectured  and  administered  innovative 
educational  programming  at  SJC  since 
1979.  Among  her  most  significant  ac- 
complishments are  the  establishment  of 
nine  off-campus  sites  for  General  Studies 
in  hospitals  and  banks. 

As  Director  of  Admissions,  she  plans  to 
introduce  a  series  of  new  recruitment 
methods  which  will  build  upon  the  5% 
increase  in  Fall  '87  freshman  enrollment. 
Among  these  is  the  implementation  of 
the  "net  working"  and  "linkage"  pro- 
cesses to  disseminate  information  on  the 
College,  its  programs,  and  its  many 
successful  graduates. 

A  graduate  of  St.  Joseph's  (with  a 
Master's  degree  from  Queens  College) 
Ms.  Mullen  recently  attended  Harvard 
University's  Summer  Institute  where  she 
shared  her  creative  and  administrative 
skills  with  over  100  admissions  profes- 
sionals.

Model  of  the  new  library  planned  for  the  Suffolk  Campus 

NEW  LIBRARY  PIANNED  FOR  THE  SUFFOLK  CAMPUS 


The  Patchogue  Campus  is  buzzing  in 
anticipation  of  groundbreaking  for  the 
new  library  scheduled  for  Spring  1988. 
The  well-known  Long  Island  architec- 
tural firm  of  Bentel  8c  Bentel  has  worked 
very  closely  with  the  entire  college 
community  -  trustees,  administrators, 
library  personnel,  faculty  and  students  - 
to  determine  needs,  evaluate  options  and 
create  a  number  of  plans  which  have  been 
reviewed  and  refined. 

Final  touches  are  being  applied  to  both 
the  interior  and  exterior  designs.  The 
building  will  be  located  on  what  is 
presently  the  track,  and  a  beautiful  grassy 
mall  with  a  seating  capacity  for  300 
people  will  be  created  between  the  new 
facility  and  the  existing  college  structure. 
Additional  parking  areas  are  planned  to 
replace  those  which  will  be  lost  to 
construction,  and  lovely  walkways  will 
provide  easy  access  to  every  part  of  the 
campus. 


Eileen  Mullen 


Cooperative  Admissions  Program  with  SCC 


Two  separate  degrees  and  two  different 
college  careers  are  the  benefits  that 
students  can  enjoy  through  Suffolk  Com- 
munity College's  new  joint  admissions 
agreement  with  St.  Joseph's  College  in 
Patchogue.  By  filing  a  single  application 
to  Suffolk  Community,  students  may 
also  be  assured  of  admission  to  St. 
Joseph's  upon  their  graduation  from 
Suffolk. 

Sr.  George  Aquin  and  Robert  T. 
Kreiling,  President  of  Suffolk  Community 
College,  recently  signed  the  agreement 
which  will  take  effect  for  students  who 
began  their  studies  at  Suffolk  in  the 
Spring  of  1987.  According  to  President 
Kreiling,  the  agreement  with  St.  Joseph's 
is  an  especially  attractive  one  because  it 


allows  students  such  complementary 
collegiate  experiences.  He  said,  "Suffolk 
Community  College  is  a  large,  public 
institution  which  enrolls  students  of  all 
ages.  Its  contrast  to  St.  Joseph's,  a  small, 
private  college,  should  provide  an  ex- 
ceptionally well-balanced  education  for 
students  who  take  advantage  of  this  new 
joint  admissions  agreement." 

Students  may  apply  to  St.  Joseph's 
through  the  Suffolk  Community  College 
admissions  office  at  the  same  time  they 
apply  to  Suffolk  or  at  any  time  during 
their  first  thirty  credit  hours  there.  Other 
benefits  of  the  joint  admissions  agreement 
include  eligibility  for  scholarships, 
priority  registration  and  waiver  of  tuition 
deposit  at  SJC. 


The  interior  features  three  levels  which 
will  be  visible  from  the  main  body  of  the 
library.  .  .  with  half  levels  above  and 
below  the  entrance  and  primary  reading 
area.  Conference  rooms  and  classrooms 
are  also  planned. 

The  current  library  will  be  converted 
into  much  needed  classrooms  and  offices. 
Up  to  this  point,  the  space  crunch  caused 
by  rapidly  increasing  enrollment  was  met 
by  scheduling  class  hours  earlier  and 
later  in  the  day. 

Dr.  Anne  Jordheim 
Lectures  on  AIDS 

Dr.  Anne  Jordheim,  Chairperson  of 
the  General  Studies  Community  Health 
Department,  was  invited  recently  by  the 
University  of  Tromso  in  Norway  to  be  a 
guest  professor  for  two  weeks.  During  her 
visit.  Dr.  Jordheim  addressed  primary 
physicians,  medical  associations,  medical 
student  groups,  dentists  and  dental 
hygienists,  nurses,  and  the  university 
community  in  a  series  of  workshops  and 
lectures  on  the  subject  of  the  AIDS  virus. 
An  expert  on  the  current  status  of  AIDS 
research  and  development  in  the  United 
States,  Dr.  Jordheim  believes  that  she  has 
"learned  a  lot  from  her  students  who  have 
worked  with  AIDS  patients."  (Most 
students  in  the  Community  Health  pro- 
gram in  G.S.  are  health  professionals.) 

Historically  a  health-conscious  society, 
Norwegians  are  concerned  that  flourish- 
ing international  travel  increases  the  AIDS 
threat.  They  believe  they  are  two  years 
behind  the  U.S.  in  projxirtionate  numbers 
of  AIDS  patients  and  hope  that  an 
informed  community  will  reduce  the  risk 
of  repeating  our  exfDeriences. 

Dr.  Jordheim's  lectures  were  tailored  to 
meet  the  needs  of  public  health  educators 
and  workers.

SJC  Library  Only  Integrated 

The  word  "research"  -  a  bone  chilling 
thought  for  most  students  -  is  greeted 
much  more  enthusiastically  at  St.  Joseph's 
College  these  days. 

Throughout  the  summer,  Sister  Dorothy 
Watson,  Chief  Librarian  of  the  College's 
Suffolk  Campus,  and  her  staff  worked 
diligently  to  complete  the  installation  of 
LS/2000,  a  fully  integrated  computerized 
library  system,  the  first  college  library 
system  of  its  kind  on  Long  Island. 

A  product  of  OCLC,  which  maintains 
an  international  data  base,  LS/2000 
provides  a  state  of  the  art  facility  which 
allows  borrowers  to  draw  upon  the  data 
contained  in  the  college's  collection  of 
books,  and  audio-visual  materials  -  in  a 
matter  of  seconds.  Four  terminals  will 
serve  the  almost  1600  students  who 
returned  to  campus  last  week  to  find  that 
"life  in  the  library"  will  never  be  the 
same. 

"This  is  great, "smiled  Chris  Carroll, 
Undergraduate  Association  President. 
"The  menus  and  directions  are  clear  and 
virtually  error  proof.  You  have  immediate 
access   to  an   author's  works,  or   to  a 


Computerized  System  On  L.I. 

bibliography  on  a  specific  topic.  You 
know  if  a  book  is  available  and  where  it's 
located.  Even  a  partial  name  or  sketchy 
topic  is  enough  to  open  up  a  variety  of 
options." 

Martha  Scheina,  a  scholarship  student 
from  Farmingville,  loves  the  ability  to 
work  without  the  assistance  of  library 
staff.  "You  feel  so  independent  and  able 
to  work  in  depth  on  your  research.  The 
more  you  search  through  data  on  the 
screen,  the  more  possibilities  you  see  for 
expanding  your  thesis  and  making  it 
more  interesting  and  informative." 

Sister  Dorothy  and  Reference  Librarian 
Sister  Agnes  Meagher  are  delighted  with 
other  operational  aspects  of  the  new 
system.  It  is  a  more  efficient  and  effective 
method  of  keeping  inventory  and  estab- 
lishing library  records,  thereby  releasing 
staff  from  clerical  chores  and  allowing 
them  to  perform  more  professional  tasks. 
It  reduces  errors  and  inaccuracies  and 
will  assist  in  the  selection  and  classifi- 
cation of  2500  books,  magazines  and 
other  materials  added  annually  to  the 
college  collection. 


HIGHLIGHTING.  .  . 

Dr.  Regina  Weiman.  innovative 
member  of  the  Psychology  Department 
and  a  noted  lecturer  on  L.I.,  is  the 
"facilitator"  of  the  Faith  and  Vision 
Group  of  St.  Mary's  Parish  in  Eastlslip-a 
parish  community  based  on  the  early 
church. . .  a  self-contained  unit  caring  for 
all  human  needs  within  a  small  geogiaphic 
area.  Made  up  of  priests,  nuns,  and  lay 
people,  their  "New  Dynamics  Vision  of 
Church  is  the  only  group  of  its  kind  in 
the  LI.S.,"  said  Dr.  Weiman. 

In  addition.  Dr.  Weiman  was  the 
featured  speaker  at  the  L.I.  Counselor's

Pinkerton  Foundation  Grant  of  $5,000 
Funds  Program  for  H.S.  Scientists 


"Experiences  in  Scientific  Research,  "a 
free  program  for  fiigh  scfiool  students,  is 
being  offered  for  tfie  second  year  at  SJC's 
Brooklyn  campus.  Instituted  in  an  effort 
to  stimulate  young  people's  interest  in 
careers  in  science  and  the  health  profes- 
sions, the  program  this  year  is  being 
underwritten  in  part  by  a  $5,000  grant 
from  The  Pinkerton  Foundation. 

"There  are  students  interested  in  science, 
but  imaware  of  the  variety  of  careers  open 
in  the  sciences.  In  this  program,  we  try  to 
offer  a  cross-section  from  forensic  science, 
to  science  education,  to  health -related 
careers  in  science,"  stated  Sister  Mary 
Maier,  chairperson  of  the  chemistry 
department  and  coordinator  of  the 
program. 

In  addition  to  group  laboratory  experi- 
ments, this  year's  program  has  expanded 
to  include  individual  research  projects 
involving  creative  research  in  the  areas  of 
laster  optics,  enzyme  kinetics,  photo- 
chemistry, and  holography. 

Twelve  students  are  working  on  indivi- 
dual research  projects,  which  Sister 
anticipates  will  be  completed  by  mid- 
April.  A  symposium  highlighting  the 
students'  work  is  scheduled  for  May. 
Some  researchers  have  entered  their 
projects  in  science  fair  competitions  as 
well.

CADETS  AT  SJC 

St.  Joseph's  Ciollege  is  participating  in 
the  recently  established  New  York  Police 
Cadet  Corps  Program.  Students  enroll 
for  a  two-year  period,  are  paid  a  stipend, 
and  have  an  opportunity  for  field  work 
with  a  Community  Patiol  Officer. 

The  cadet  must  take  the  Civil  Service 
Police  Exam  prior  to  completion  of  the 
program.  I'pon  graduation  from  college, 
six  months  of  further  training  is  re(juired 
at  the  Police  Academy. 


Last  year's  program  enrolled  70  stu- 
dents from  25  high  schools— this  year, 
130  students,  representing  55  schools,  are 
participating.  The  program,  which  is  a 
concerted  effort  of  all  three  science 
departments — biology,  chemistry  and 
physics — to  encourage  students  to  main- 
tain their  interest  in  the  sciences  and  to 
enjoy  the  wonders  and  mysteries  of  our 
world,  is  obviously  succeeding.  Several 
students  now  in  the  program  have  already 
expressed  their  intentions  of  returning 
next  year!

Patchogue  Students  Help  HOPE  HOUSE  Fire  Victims 


A  fire  at  a  home  for  troubled  youths  on 
Long  Island  is  bringing  the  St.  Joseph's 
Cbllege  community  together  in  Patchogue. 

Earlier  this  year,  there  was  a  fire  at 
Hope  House  Ministries  in  Port  Jefferson. 
The  director  of  the  Ministries  is  Father 
Francis  Pizzaielli.  an  English  teacher  at 
SJC  in  Patchogue.  The  fire  brought  back 
painful  memories  for  one  of  Father 
Pizzarelli's  students,  a  freshman  whose 
own  home  was  destroyed  by  a  fire  last 
year. 

"I  can't  describe  the  feeling  of  losing 
everything,"  she  said.  But  those  feelings 
were  eased  by  the  outpouring  of  support 
her  family  received  fiom  the  commrnity. 

"The  teachers  and  students  took  up  a 
collection  and  donated  the  money  to  my 
family.  I  remember  when  they  presented 
me  with  the  check.  I  was  so  moved.  .  .  I 
cried.  It  gave  me  such  a  warm  feeling  that 
everyone  cared  enough  to  do  this.  I  (ell 
like  I  had  to  do  something  in  ictuiii 
Saying  thank  you  didn't  seem  like 
enough." 


She  remembered  what  happened  the 
day  of  the  fire  at  Hope  House.  "We  had  a 
paper  due.  We  had  to  write  our  autobio- 
graphy based  on  an  important  event  that 
helped  shape  our  lives.  I  wrote  mine 
based  on  the  fire.  I  remember  going  to 
class  that  day.  I  was  all  excited  about 
handing  in  the  paper,  but  Father  Pizzaielli 
never  showed  up  in  class.  When  I  found 
out  why,  I  was  shocked.  I  knew  exactly 
what  he  was  going  through  and  I  wanted 
to  help." 

She  started  a  fund  at  the  C^ollege  whit  h 
brought  in  a  variety  of  donations,  includ- 
ing money,  food,  (lolhing.  household 
items  and  sheets. 

In  March,  the  Circle  K  Club  hosted  a 
benefit  "Hawaiian  Luau"  for  Hope 
House.  Representatives  from  Cable  TV's 
News  12  Long  Island  were  on  hand  lo 
hel|)  celebrate  and  report  on  the  ex(  iling 
happenings  at  St.  Joseph's.  The  dance 
raised  nearly  $1,000.

LIBRARY  GROUNDBREAKING  IN  PATCHOGUE 


History  is  in  the  making  at  the 
Patchogue  campus  as  the  College  is  in 
the  midst  of  constructing  a  new  $3.6 
million,  25,000  square-foot  library. 

The  official  groundbreaking  took  place 
at  the  College  on  May  9  with  a  ceremony 
that  featured  guest  speaker  Suffolk  County 
Executive  Patrick  Halpin,  local  political 
leaders,  prominent  business  people, 
administration,  faculty,  students  and 
friends  of  the  College.  A  delicious  buffet 
luncheon  followed. 

Construction  crews  began  work  late  in 
May.  Within  days,  the  workers  had 
demolished  the  running  track  and  re- 
moved the  faculty  parking  lot.  By  mid- 
June,  the  field  was  leveled  and  cement 
trucks  pulled  onto  the  campus  to  begin 
pouring  the  foundation. 

The  library,  to  be  completed  by  the  Fall 
1989,  will  accommodate  120,000  volumes 
and  300  readers.  The  present  library  will 
be  converted  to  much  needed  classroom 
space.

entitled  "New  Horizons,"  which  will 
raise  the  necessary  funds  for  the  library 
and  student  scholarship  needs  at  both 
campuses.  In  Brooklyn,  Bishop  Francis 
J.  Mugavero  hosted  a  reception  for  the 
benefit  of  the  campaign.  A  number  of
