Approved by both the faculty and the board of trustees, the policy is a neccessary step in the quest for a more diverse faculty and administration. The Tripod supports this resolution rSecause it will lead to the kind of staff which Trinity must have to honor.its committment to diversity. The college has decided to pursue minority students aggressively, making a committment to faculty and staff diversity essential. It will not be easy, but careful implementation of this policy can only benefit the college. President Gerety has promised to spearhead the drive for the best faculty possible, but in some areas the numbers are not favorable for Trinity. ' At only $131 million, a weak endowment is part of the problem. Dean Cohn has said the college would like create ten new teaching positions in the next five years, but the school can only afford five. Of these five, at least three positions will be filled by minorities in accordance with the new hiring policy.

BOX SEATS By Patrick Keane Pick-up football on Saturday afternoon; for many it is a religion. Last Saturday I congregated with a host of cronies for a little tnid- afternoon football. It was the perfect day for a game of tackle, backyard football; the kind of stuff that childhood dreams were made of. This scenario was a ritual for my friends and I as a child. We would establish a phone chain to relay the pertinent information about the big game to the mighty mites of the neighborhood. Once the game time had been set you usually had about twenty minutes to prepare yourself for what would certainly be a "Saturday Afternoon Crunch Course!" The unfortunate event of inclement fall weather never stopped us from participating in a backyard gridiron battle. First I put on two pairs of sweatpaints, (ripped from previous outings) which were topped by a pair of blue and white gym shorts, (always worn on the outside of sweats) The next battle garments were two sweatshirts: a crew neck and a hooded fluorescent orange baby with the thermal lining. The most important pieces in this ensemble were my my #31 Wilbert Montgomery Eagles jersey and my black and yellow Bruins stocking hat with the little "B" patch on the forehead. (One should always make sure to rip off the fuzzy ball on top) These items were a must for a successful game of football.
