< - Dorm staff to be chosen

by Debbie Spieker Although most Colby students are busy just trying to keep up with this semester's work load, there are 118 dorm staff applicants who are already beginning preparations for next year. Candidates for the dorm staff positions of Residential Assistant and Head Resident turned in their applications last week. Presently, the dorm staff committee is reviewing these applications. This week, group interviews of all applicants have been conducted, in order that."first cuts" may be ma de by ne xt Th ur sda y. ** The surviving applicants of ttiese cuts will proceed and be interviewed individually. After these interviews, the 1983-1984 staff will be selected. The process tha t the current dorm staff follows in renewing their positions for next year is virtually the same, with the exception that student evaluations of their per- formances are also considered. Additionally, interviewers will look more specifically at each R.A.'s perspective of the role of dorm staff rather than merely attempting to get to know the person. Those interested in becoming Head Residents have specifically applied for the position. A few applicants apply only for the Head Resident job, while others are also interested in Residential Assistant positions. Although the process of choosing dorm staff is basically the same as previous years, minor changes have occurred. The primary group interviews have been arranged so that all current dorm staff reapplying for positions are together and all newcomers are together, Dean Joyce McPhetres believes this change enables the interviewer to better look at the level of skills of the respective groups. These interviews are conducted by faculty, administration, and fellow students, The staff positions are for students in good academic standing who plan to attend Colby for both semesters next year. These are the only solid qualifications required, Dea n McPhetres noted that applicants should have leadership qualities and a sense of responsibility, but that there were really no specific personality types she was seeking. To the contrary, McPhetres is looking for different types of people who are able to relate to the varied types of people within a sirigledormitory. Head Resident candidates, McPhetres stressed , should possess leadership and advisory qualities above and beyond those necessary for a Resident Assistant.

McCrystal's fabulous Colby drew first blood ten minutes into the game when Salem State took the lead on a powerplay goal from goaltending inspired his teammatesto regain the lead. Buster Clegg lifted the puck over the outstretched Salem defenseman Peter Vasapolli. Colby was serving a two Rod McGillis beat Barbour with a shot to the upper right State goalie, Charlie Barbour.

Referring to the team as a whole Goulet said, "The guys sort of let up mentally after taking a 4-2 lead." In all, the defense allowed 45 shots on McCrystal. In the overtime period, Colby had its chances but could not convert. Salem State's Mike Bonvaria knocked Colby out of the playoffs with a back-handed goal. McCrystal stopped the initial shot but could not stop the follow up. Looking toward next season, Colby is losing three of its top four defensemen.
