The Serenity
Prayer
God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I
cannot change
Courage to change the
things I can
and the wisdom to know
the difference
Living one day at a time
Enjoying one moment at a
time
Accepting hardships as a
pass way to peace.
Taking, as He did, the sinful
world as it is - not as I
would have it
Trusting that He will
make all things right if I
surrender to His will
That I may be reasonably
happy in this life and
supremely with Him
Forever in the next.

which cause colds and flus,
and you can become very
sick contractin g o ne of
them.
One of the best
ways to distinguish betw
«n cold and flu is by
how the illness began. If
the onset was slow, slllrting
with scratchy throat and
SIliffies and progressed into
a ronny or stuffy nose, a
sore throat and or cough,
you most likely havea cold.
You may feel chilled and
have a low-grade fever (no
more than 100 degrees)
along with body aches.
Most cold resolve in about
10 days with symptomatic
treatments such as non-aspi·
rin pain relievers. like
Tylenol. dcrongcstant. like
Sudafed. fluids. and rest. If
symptoms last longer than
thaI. a bacterial complication
such as sinusi tis or bronchi·
tis may develop. These war·
ra nt a medical consultation
and usually I prescription
fOf antibiotics.
Flu. on the o ther
hand. comes on suddenly
and leave you feeling exhausted.
Fevers run high
102 to 104 degrees. There
are muscle aches, headache,
fatigue, and weakness.
Working or studying with
the flu is difficult and bed
rest is recommended. Unlike
colds. which affect the
upper respimtory tract. flu
affects the lower
respiratory tract.
Sore throat is usually
won;c: the sn;ond
or third day
with a dry hacking
cough. The flu can
also cause vomiting
and diarrhea.
T his never happens
with a cold.
Fluids, rest. and
non·aspirin pain
n:lieven suchas Tylenol \0
rel ieve feve r and body
aches are recommended
for flu. It is likely to leave
as abruptly 0$ it comes in
3-7 days. although fatigue
can last a couple of weeks.
Another illness
eommon at this time of
year is strep thma!. Luckil
y. more sore throats are
J1Clt strep. but it is important
to confirm strep throat
by having I throat culture.
A positive throat culture
must be treated by antibi·
otics.
To add \0 the con·
fusion, allergies can cause
similar symptoms such as
sore throats, headache, and

Could the Next President be Female?
By: Jell DiBella
As Campaign 2000 gels underway. potential candidates for the presidency have begun 10 mount a substantial
run for the White House. With the upcoming presidential race occurring the same year as the mil lennium. questions
are being raised as to whether the year 2000 will bring a welcome change 10 the Presidency.
Looking back allhc past Presidents of the United States. two characteristics stand out in my mind. One, all the
presidents that have been elected have been male. and two, white. This is n01 to say Ihm no wOl1hy candidates Olher
than white males existed. bUI we mUSI remember that for many years. the only people allowed \0 vote were wealthy
white males. Blacks and women earned the right 10 VOle only within the early pan oflhc twentieth century.
As a woman, I welcome a female candidate fOTlhe presidentialrnce of2000. I don't know iflhe United States
is ready for a female president. The only female thus far 10 state that she is contemplaling a run for the White House
in 2000 is Elizabeth Dole. She resigned from the American Red Cross as ils president in lanuary. When asked about
a run for Ihe While House in 2000 in a recent MSNI3C interview. Dole said. "I'd like 10 give il a shol. II seems 10 me
thai it would be a good way to stan Ihe new millennium with a history-making elC(:lion, where a woman - aqualified
woman- was elIX:ted president of the UniTed STates" (Smith.l.13. National Libeny lournal. Feb 1999. v28, n2. p4).
Mrs. Dole would have to rise above her husband's failed elTon in the 1996 presidential campaign and his
inability 10 communicate with audiences. She willnccd to make her abortion stance clear to pro-life voters, unli ke Bob
Dole's fence-sitting approach to this important issue.
Women have spoken oul about abortion for years, bUTlhere has never been a female eleCTed as President of the
United States. Would the fact that a woman being elected President change the Slale of abortion in Ihis eoulllry or
women's view of it? With the country under the leadership ora woman, would the female voters change Their minds
about abortion? Would The pro-lifers fccllhat they have a stronger platform with a female as leader of this country?
This remains to be seen.
Some skeptics sec Mrs. Dole as a potemially powerful running mate fOT the eventual GOP presidential candidate.
Mrs. Dole, however. had this to say in response. "1 Think there's an assumption Ihat if you're a woman or black.
Hispanic. Asian, you must be number two··(Smilh. J.13. National Liberty Journal. Feb 1999. v8. n2. p4). Hopefully, by
the year 2000, the assumption that a woman must be number two will no 10ngereltis1. If this proves to be true. this wi!!
be the best chance a female has for being elected President oflhe United States in the year 2000.

Last February, four-hundred students, YES IT MAY HAVE BEEN YOU, completed the Student Satisfaction Inventory survey. Developed
by Noel Levitz, Centers Inc., a nationally known organization specializing in student affair concerns, this survey consisting of one-hundred
questions was given to students here at Nazareth. The purpose was to look into the satisfaction and the importance of certain items on campus 10
you. the student.
So what does this mean to you?
The results of this survey represent positive and negative concerns of the students here at Nazareth College. Here are some of the results:
MOSI Favorable:
• library resources
"library staff helpful
" instruction in major
"campus well-maintained
" reputation in the community
ItemsofConcem:
.. securi ty response to emergencies
" financial aid
.. racial hamlOny
.. registration process
.. campus food services
The survey had items belonging to twelve different seales. Three seales that were most important to the students here at Nazareth College
were: academic advising, instructional effectiveness and safely and security. Compared to other four-year private institutions, Nazareth students
are more satisfied than the comparison group with both academic advising and instructional effectiveness but less satisfied with safety and security
than the comparison group.
Two concerns that students mentioned which have been dramatically changes since February 1998 were the adequacy of computer labs.
and the variety of housing provided.
So why is this being presented to you?
President Miller is very interested in these results and is delighted to share this information with you, the college community. The Retention
Comminee, under the leadership of Mr. Pnul Buntich. will be addressing these concerns and they will share their recommendations Wilh Dr.
Miller. With the help of Mrs. Susan Riegle I have been able to get this information to you. [fyou would like to look at the complete report it will
be on reserve for you in the library. And finally:
Don·t like what you see? Don·t think that you had any input on this data?
Take part in the Spring of2000 when the Student Satisfactory Inventory survey will be distributed once more. Allow your voice to be valued in
the dedsion making process here at Nazareth College .. .. . . . . . . . . . .... . . . . ... . . . . . ....... .

Nazareth swimmers are not only making wa ... es in the water, but in the academic
