Construction for the brand new West Residence Hall, set to open in the Fall of 2006, adjacent to Cabrini apartment complex (CAC),is scheduled to begin April 1, 2005. All residents who now park in the CAC lot will now have to resort to parking on Residential Boulevard or at the Dixon Center.

This past spring break, while many Cabrini students were flying to exotic places such as Cancun, the Bahamas or even just relaxing at home; some traveled to Richwood, W. Va. for Project Appalachia, an alternative to the normal spring break trip. A group made up of 18 students, leaders Matt Grzeskowiak, a junior and education major, and Ashlee Lensmyer an English/communications major and senior, Campus Minister Laura Gorgol and the Director of Athletics Leslie Danehy, ventured out to West Virginia for six days to work in communities of various towns.

Lina Barbieri, the director of Marketing and Communications at Cabrini, after much thought and consideration resigns from her position due to the expectance of a baby girl in June. Barbieri said the decision to resign from her position was difficult; however, it was well thought out on her part, as well as her husband's.

The Cooperative Education and Career Services Office, better known as the Co-op office, provides career planning and assistance to students. The goal is to enable students to develop professional exposure and earn some college credit, in addition to earning income as well.

The average college student belongs in a side-show act of a circus. Their balancing act of classes, homework, studying, partying, sports team practices, club meetings, working on campus, working off campus, volunteer work, eating and sleeping is enough to make the bearded lady look like small potatoes.

Laura Shapella started her new job as the assistant director of Residence Life last semester. Originally from Northern New Jersey, Shapella graduated from Ursinus College with her bachelor's degree. She then attended graduate school at James Madison University in Virginia.

The Casey House, also known as House Five to Cabrini students, has been dealt some major problems. Just two weeks ago, on a Wednesday morning, the residents of House Five were in the middle of a flooded mess due to frozen pipes that burst. Not only did this happen once, but it also occurred during the winter break.

"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future," John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jason Bozzone's personal hero, once said. With his eye on the future, Bozzone, the current director of student activities, resigned from his position and will be taking a job at the University of Pennsylvania.
