JAY BLOTCHER AND ACT UP
NATIONAL POETRY MONTH
Inspired by other national history months, the Academy of American Poets decided to initiate the first National
Poetry Month in April of 1996. During this time, many people come together to share their love and passion for poetry – schools, poets, libraries, publishers, and others. Some of the most common events that occur during this time
(especially for high school students and those living in the five boroughs of New York City) include poetry slams
and Poem In Your Pocket Day, which falls on April 24. Poetry slams are very similar to a talent show – you perform
a poem of your choice in front of an audience, whether it is your own poem or a favored poem by a poet you admire. On Poem In Your Pocket Day, you literally carry your favorite poem in your pocket throughout the entire day.
This can either be one that you wrote or one that someone else wrote that you absolutely adore. Throughout the day,
you read your poem and become inspired by it and share it with others.

AIDS activist and ACT UP member Jay Blotcher came to Marist College on Wednesday, May 7th to discuss
his experience in the fight against the AIDS epidemic and the use of activism to create change in the world. His
educational and inspiring talk was made possible by the Center of Multicultural Affairs, the School of Liberal Arts
Women’s Study Group, the Department of Modern Languages, and the LGBTQ subcommittee to the Diversity
Council at Marist. Dr. Joann Myers and Dr. Patricia Ferrer-Medina were integral in bringing Blotcher to campus,
and presented him to the audience.
Blotcher introduced himself as an “old solider in the war on AIDS,” here to tell his battle stories. He shared
his experiences from his first protest on Wall Street in 1988 to the work he is doing today to encourage activism in
others. His talk was a blend of a history lesson, business and economics lesson, and personal life experience. He
then talked about what the AIDS epidemic did economically and socioeconomically for our society, and what it did
for him in his personal life.
The majority of his talk was focused around the work he did with ACT UP, a very prominent AIDS activism
organization in the 1980’s, that is still doing important work to combat AIDS today. He also discussed the role of
media from the beginning of the AIDS epidemic until now, the role of pharmaceutical companies and federal
agencies, as well as other activist groups for and against the cause of ACT UP.
Blotcher eloquently explained a history of real pain and suffering to an audience that, for the most part, did
not live through this profound time of protesting and lack of scientific information, and therefore lack of informed
political and social decisions, on the topic. Through video clips of protests and his personal experiences he was able
to make the audience understand what it truly means to be an activist for something that is deeply, adversely
affecting your life. He encouraged activism and warned against complacency which often occurs after changes start
to be made within a society.
This speaker was brought to campus as a follow up to the First Year Common Reading assignment The
Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot that the class of 2017 had to read before coming to Marist
College. The book, the dialogue by the Henrietta’s family in the fall and the address by Blotcher this spring all had
a common theme concentrating on the lack of access to appropriate healthcare for marginalized groups. The
family of Henrietta Lacks and the work of Jay Blotcher and ACT UP both spoke out against treating
disenfranchised groups as second class citizens in the biomedical world and healthcare industry. Bringing Blotcher
to campus was a way to reinforce the importance of the issues addressed in the Common Reading, and bring them
into a more modern context.

STUDENT POEM SPOTLIGHT
Africa
A place that is not known to me
Not known in the sense of heritage or origin
A place of natural resources, sun, and filled with history and pride
Africa
A place of different dialects
Dialects that connects a blood line of pain and suffering
A suffering that can only be healed through the words of God and true bonding
Africa
A place rooted with growth and determination to create culture, pride and unity
This place, not just any place
A place that is not like no other
A place that I connect with through ancestors, images and teachings
A place where all man kind comes from but a place ignorant to most
There is not much I can say about this place but Africa is a place of true home.

EASTER AROUND THE
WORLD
EASTER
How is Easter celebrated
around the world? We asked some
of our international students to
tell us about their Easter
traditions!
Easter marks the end of the 40 day period known as Lent in Christianity. The Christian church,
following the Gregorian calendar, celebrates Easter on the first Sunday after the first full moon following
the spring equinox. This is why the date of Easter changes so drastically from year to year; it can fall
anywhere between March 22 and April 25. Eastern Orthodox churches follow the Julian calendar, which
can cause a difference of up to five weeks between Orthodox and Western Easters. This year, however,
both Easters happened to fall on April 20.
The week leading up to Easter is known as Holy Week, starting with Palm Sunday and including
Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Saturday and Easter itself on the following Sunday. Palm Sunday
is the celebration of Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem. The remaining days of Holy Week are the time period in
which Jesus was arrested, betrayed, crucified and resurrected. According to Christian traditions, Maundy
Thursday, or Holy Thursday, is the recognition of Jesus’ last supper with his apostles, and Good Friday is
the day Jesus was crucified and then buried in the tomb. Christians believe that Jesus was then resurrected
on Easter Sunday.
The Easter Vigil is a special service held in the early morning hours of Easter Sunday. In the Catholic
Church, the Easter Vigil mass is typically held at midnight on Easter Saturday. It is common for American
Protestant churches to hold services at sunrise on Easter Sunday. The symbolism and use of light,
primarily through candles, is an important aspect of the Easter Vigil.
The two most popular symbols associated with Easter today actually pre-date the Christian holiday.
Rabbits and eggs have been used throughout the world and across religions to symbolize the coming of
spring for thousands of years. Rabbits were seen as a prominent symbol of rebirth and the rejuvenation
of life that comes after winter. Eggs were also seen as a symbol of rebirth and new life. Over time, these
symbols were adopted by Christians to have meaning within the church related to Easter as well as spring.
For example, eggs have become symbolic of the resurrection of Jesus, using the concept of new life coming out of the eggshell as a metaphor for Jesus coming out of the tomb on Easter Sunday.

Esmeralda Diaz is a
senior from Puebla, Mexico.
“On Easter morning,
everyone goes down to the
‘Banuarios’ to play in the
water, and then we all go to mass.
There is a procession that goes
throughout the town and ends at the church, showing the scenes of
Jesus’ life. Typically everyone eats a big meal at home afterward.”
Aleksandra Simeonova is a freshman from Bulgaria.
“We color Easter eggs the week before Easter. The first egg has
to be red. The tradition is to rub this egg on the cheeks and forehead
of children so they will be healthy in the next year. On Easter day,
each person takes an egg and knocks it against the eggs of others
to crack them—whoever has the egg that does not crack will be the
most prosperous in the following year.”

Amanda Amorosa is a freshman from Montreal, Canada.
“For Easter at my house, my whole family goes over to my
grandmother’s house to have dinner. My grandmother usually makes
her homemade pasta, along with a bunch of other delicious foods.
After we eat, we have an Easter egg hunt in her house. It is always
great to have everyone together in one place, since we all have such
busy schedules now.”
Fredrik Bjerke is a sophomore from Norway.
“The entire week before Easter is a school holiday in Norway.
Families traditionally go away for the weekend to cross-country ski,
arriving at a ski cabin on Thursday night and staying until Monday.
On Friday, they celebrate with a big meal including an appetizer of
stuffed eggs seasoned with salt, pepper, and fish, followed by a big
dinner of lamb with potatoes and salad, and ending with dessert. It is
customary to eat an orange and a chocolate bar, similar to a Kit-Kat
bar but MUCH better, while cross-country skiing. It is traditional to
hide Easter eggs and to have Easter baskets as well.”

FACULTY SPOTLIGHT
Chris Bowser is a part-time instructor in Marist’s School of Science and a full-time education specialist for
the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Cornell’s Water Resource Institute.
“Piti piti, wazo fe nich”: “little by little the bird builds its nest.”
I have had the privilege of bringing my passion for environmental education to Haiti in the last few years. In
2012, the Marist Praxis program was looking for professors to accompany some students along with the Home
Education Love Opportunity (HELO) organization, a non-profit founded by Elizabeth Kennedy, which has set up an
orphanage and school near the city of Les Cayes in southwestern Haiti.
In that first trip, fellow professor Lea Graham and I were occupied with getting our bearings, meeting the
teachers and “parents” of the orphanage, working with the children, helping a construction crew build a roof for the
church/classroom, and trying our best to pick up the Creole language. The biologist in me was delighted to take the
students to a local lagoon and seine up fish and crabs, even a few species I was familiar with from my work on our
Hudson River! People young and old are the same everywhere; a net full of fish is an instant crowd pleaser.
Professor Graham and I also lectured at the American University of the Caribbean (AUC), a small agricultural
and environmental college staffed with devoted faculty like Jan Davis and Cathy Baker of the United States, and
William Cinea, a Haitian dynamo who does double duty as the director of the Les Cayes Botanical Garden.
In 2013 I went back to Les Cayes with Elizabeth Kennedy and the HELO crew, including several Marist
students. This time, in addition to working with the HELO school, I also led several water quality workshops with
AUC focused on using donated equipment to study local waterways. Both Marist and Haitian students got involved
with exploring the streams running through the Botanical Garden and even looking at household water supplies.
On our last day there, we brought both the college students and the children from the orphanage to a local
beach, where the AUC students seined up fish and then each of them taught a small group of youngsters about what
they had learned. As a teacher, the best part of the whole trip was watching Haitians teaching Haitians about
Haiti…and I didn’t have to say a word. A few Haitian college students are now armed with the skills and equipment
to study their local waterways, and a few more young people got to explore their country’s beautiful natural
resources. Little by little, that’s how it gets done.

STUDY ABROAD SPOTLIGHT
Eury Fabian is a sophomore Spanish and Media Studies &
Production Major, with a concentration in film and television.
He is CMA student worker (international peer counselor) who is
currently abroad in Madrid, Spain.
Ever since the idea of attending college came closer, I
dreamed of studying abroad. Something about being independent
and exploring the unknown has always appealed to me. The feeling of being in Spain is wonderful. As a second
year student, I had already reached a point in my life where I wanted to explore beyond the walls of my everyday
lifestyle. Coming from a Hispanic household has definitely had its advantages; so far I have had no problems with
assimilation and my comfort level grows every day. Given this, as one of my concerns before I came here, I did not
want to move to a place where the language or culture would be something completely foreign to what I already
know culturally and socially. Before going to Spain, I had certain speculations of an indifferent treatment because
of where I was born. However, Spaniards consider people from the Caribbean to be exotic, so Spain has turned out
to be quite accepting of me.
The idea of being the “international student,” as opposed to being the orientation leader for international
students, truly fascinated me. People note my presence whenever I walk the streets of Madrid, or any other city for
that matter. Having worked with international students before prepared me mentally to face any challenge that was
handed down to me. How Spaniards observe foreigners in their country was awe-inspiring to encounter. Without
a doubt, I now have personal knowledge of what goes through the mind of an international student at Marist; you
enter this state of mind where emotions collide, and you learn how to cope with your new reality.
Furthermore, getting to know the aspects of a new culture has allowed me to bring about a personal
discovery, and it has given me the opportunity to sharpen my identity. I have yet to find surprising cultural aspects
in Spain, although I was unfamiliar with the seriousness of the Spanish concepts of time and of the social life. In the
long run, this experience has led me to magical places like Barcelona, Galicia, Morocco, and Valencia; places that
are rich in culture, in every sense of the word. I have come to know people with personal stories that would leave
anyone speechless; their strength and humanity inspires admiration. Taking every experience into consideration,
Spain has given me the opportunity to expand my knowledge, establish heartfelt connections, be myself, show my
eccentricity, spontaneity, and live without prejudice. It has helped me understand that the world really is a book and
those who do not travel read only one page.

On Friday April 25th, the Center for Multicultural Affairs sponsored Indian New Year at Marist College. The
idea for the event was a collaborative effort between Professor Gayatree Siddhanta Sarma from the School of
Management and a group of Indian graduate students here at Marist. Coordinator of International Programs under
the Center for Multicultural Affairs, Karen Tomkins-Tinch, was instrumental in helping organize the event with
Professor Sarma.
“The New Year celebration all over India includes good food, good music, new clothes and a prayer for
prosperity and health for everyone,” said professor Sarma, “Half the world away, the Indian graduate students at
Marist only could imagine the festivities at home until I proposed a celebration on campus. A few students
enthusiastically joined in and we began the preparations.”
The majority of the night consisted of the students performing a series of traditional Indian dances, while wearing traditional dresses called Saris. One graduate student is a professional Bollywood dancer, and he along with
other students practiced the dances for weeks leading up to the performance on Friday with the help of Professor
Sarma. “I really enjoyed the dances,” said Marist senior Liz Hamburger, “I could tell the students worked hard on
preparing and coordinating them.”
The food was prepared by Sodexo, with the help of professor Sarma’s own traditional Indian recipes and
consultation of the Indian students. There were samosas, kebabs, and cucumber sandwiches, along with cardamom
tea and carrot cake. There was a wide variety of spices and herbs in the food traditionally used in Indian cusine. The
food was a highlight of the evening for many.
The New Year event was well attended by both students and faculty. Many professors from the School of
Management and the School of Computer Science and Mathematics came to the event. The president of Marist
College, Dr. Dennis J. Murray, also came to support the Indian students, at which time they performed an encore
dance for him.
Everyone in attendance experienced authentic delicious Indian food, traditional Indian dances and clothing. It
was a unique experience for the graduate students to be able to share their holiday on campus with other
non-Indians, who were receptive of the new cultural experience. “I loved how the Indian students were so active
and engaged, and not shy at all about dancing in front of everyone,” said Karen Tomkins-Tinch.
Reflecting on the event, professor Sarma said “my most favorite memory from the event has to be the
enthusiastic participation of our graduate students. They put together a very beautiful performance and also played
a very involved role in entertaining our guests. For me, the experience was also rewarding as the Marist community extended a helping hand in every possible way. The function was dedicated to the ‘Gurus,’ the Professors, and
everyone else who help the students in their intellectual journey.”

HEOP FIRST YEAR PERSPECTIVE
I remember when I visited Marist College for the first time three years ago, breathing in the
fresh air, and suddenly telling myself, “I belong here.” Looking beyond the Hudson River, Marist
College was everything I had imagined. A year later, with hope and hard work, my dream of
attending Marist College became reality. I was one of the lucky thirteen admitted to Marist College
through the Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP).
Part of the requirements of being an HEOP student is attending a six-week pre-freshman
summer program where students take two classes and attend various workshops intended to facilitate
the transition from high school to college. My first thought about the summer program was, “Do
I really have to take classes during the summer?” Although attending classes and workshops felt
tedious sometimes, I now see its objective. The summer program helped me learn my way around
campus, allowed me to meet important faculty, and most importantly let me experience what life in
college would be like. I was also able to meet a diverse group of individuals, who I now consider my
HEOP family.
HEOP has provided me with many opportunities that have allowed me to evolve as a person.
During the summer program I considered myself more reserved, quiet and hesitant to participate in
different activities. By joining different clubs on campus, attending rigorous business classes, and
working, I was able to become a more outgoing person this year. HEOP has also provided me with
other services throughout the academic year, such as counseling, tutoring, and leadership training.
Through these services, I was able to gain skills I did not have before, as well as additional
knowledge that has enhanced me as a person.
HEOP unites people from different ethnic backgrounds and contributes to the diversity found at
Marist. I am proud to contribute to this diversity and feel extremely grateful towards all those who
contributed to my acceptance into the Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program. Here
I am today, an upcoming sophomore, walking through Marist’s beautiful campus while receiving an
excellent education in the business field. I am ready to take on all the opportunities, and even
challenges, that Marist College has to offer within the next three years.
HEOP SENIOR YEAR PERSPECTIVE
When I first came to Marist, I was nervous beyond belief. I thought that I would never make a connection with any of the other students or staff. For the first year, I closed myself off completely from everyone
else; I did everything by the book and I kept to myself, even if that meant I had to let others walk all over
me to avoid drama. Most of all, I had no idea as to what I wanted to do with myself after college.
Now, somehow, I have changed entirely. I am a senior now, finishing up and getting ready to graduate.
I know what I want to do and I am taking initiative in all of the things I am interested in. I have connected
with some of the most amazing people on campus. It is funny how four years can really change a person.
I went from quiet and lost, to outspoken and adventurous. I even like to challenge myself once in a while
with my work. During my freshman year, I would have wanted everything to be easy, but now, I find a
thrill in taking on even the most stressful tasks. When I complete a challenge, it is the most amazing feeling
in the world.
My perspective on Marist has really changed. This place feels like home to me and now I find myself
facing yet another challenge – I do not want to leave. Even so, my mentality has changed a bit – even
though I am nervous to leave this place, I know I will find a way to make a new home for myself and I
know I will succeed. Thanks to Marist and all the support of the faculty here, I feel confident in most things
that others would not, and I surprise myself more and more every day as I get closer to graduation. Now
I know what previous seniors meant when they voiced their fears of the graduation countdown clock that
hangs in the lobby of Donnelly. I never thought I would find myself in their shoes, but here I am.
Many find me to be odd, but very interesting to work with, and I am perfectly fine with that. I do not
want to be normal – I want to stick out and have my own path. I want to be myself and work for someone
else who is interested in me for my work and who I am. At the end of the day, I know I will hit the ground
running after graduation. And if I run into walls, I will smash right through them and keep running. If
Marist has taught me anything, it is that we all fit somewhere, somehow. Just be persistent and confident.
