T IS WITH a fiesty personna and a sagacity that belies her 72 years that I Mary Harsche speaks of the past. Yet she is not the type to settle back and collect dust while treasuring a few forgotten moments * of yesteryear. Rather, she is a lady on the go Allison Zisko — constantly moving, constantly hustling, because, after all, there are so many things that need to be done. In fact, she had just finished mowing the lawn when 1 spoke to hear (a job she claims "is not bad at all"). From that point on, 1 realized how lucky I was to catch up with this spitfire. I listened with great fascination as she wove a colorful tale of life during the 40's, when the United States was at war. It was a time of war bonds and rationing, when people planted victory gardens and lit votive candles. It was a period in our history when things were No work was too harsh for these turned upside down. No longer did all the tough dames. mores and dictates of society apply to everyday life; times were changing, and you had to move along with them or get swept under the rug.. Which is part of the reason why Mary went out and got herself a job, working at General Motors as "Rosie the Riveter". It was more a case of economic necessity than patriotic fervor that compelled Mary to work in a once male-dominated field. At the time, her husband, whom she affectionately calls "Mikey," was working as a banker. Though 33 years old at the time (a point which Mary and Mikey had a lively debate over as I sat there and waited), and a father, he was not Soldering for Uncle Sam Chatting with Rosie the Riveter

Toto, I don't think we are in Kansas Anymore? Scarlet O'Hara and Rhett Buder escaping from a burning Atlanta? Return to Fordham, 1987? Make no mistake about it, residents arriving at Fordham last weekend were greeted by grounds resembling something right out of a disaster movie. But, like most sequels, worse than the original. Sequel? Remember (he Wrath of the Villages!, or how about Sesquicentennial Scream? Two of the previous bombs released by the powers-that-be at Fordham. II has happened again: unfinished buildings, missed connections on furniture orders, renovations half-completed. And, most importantly (unfortunately) unhappy residents forced to deal with construction and over-crowding in facilities. The same script as last year's struggle to complete Sesquicenterwial Hall on time; or unfinished Villages two years ago. University officials have been quick to say much of what hasn't been up to snuff is beyond its control. But after similar experiences with so-called ou(-of-control situations, it would M't'in logical that the I 'niversity would know enough to assume more control. Because pleading innocent on grounds that (he University has "no control" doesn't do much for students who climb over discarded furniture or plod through the mud to reach an unfinished dorm, only to be awakened by workmen at six in the morning, nor does it give patience to residents and commuters crammed into one undersized cafeteria. Saying sorry after breaking the vase doesn't fix it. What makes an already incredible situation even more preposterous is the fact that Fordham students arc paying 12 percent more for this madness. Talk about getting more for your money... I>r. Cammarosano talks of taking "Prudent Risks." And, indeed, risks must be taken in order to foster progress. But risks taken that cause students unnecessary headaches are not prudent risks. Especially if Fordham University continues to demand more money for students to be here. A Job Well Done Q. What do the following things have in common? a. Summer Vacation b. A Sunset c. Childhood d. A 17-course Chinese dinner e. David Stuhr's deanship A: They are all good things that must come to an end

When Benedict Harier resigned as dean of The College of Business Administration in early 1984, CBA was going through a mid-life crisis. The school was well-known, yet did not quite possess the outstanding reputation it deserved. CBA was a school in transition: a ship on the right course in need of the right captain to ensure its direction. For nearly four years David Stuhr kept the ship afloat and steered it toward its final destination. Each year the curriculum has gradually become more demanding en route to offering business students a dual education. Not only is the business curriculum competitive, but students are also required to receive a liberal arts education; Thus, placing the Fordham business student a step above (he rest. Dean Stuhr was always looking out for the benefit of the students and as one of his colleagues noted, "He didn't bend rules easily because in the long run it would be detrimental to the students." For the past seven semesters Dean Stuhr has guided CUA, but like a summer vacation, or a sunset or even a 17-course Chinese dinner, Dean Stuhr's term has ended; as all good things do. Bui unlike most, Sluhr will slay close to home and continue to teach. Whatever his real reasons are for leaving he'll be missed. A good man can be replaced, but not forgotten.
