Listen to the Silence, Stop the Violence
By Rachel Milan
April is Sexual Assault
Awareness month and on April 11th
and 12th, Cape Cod Community
College (4Cs) held another year
of showing support by having the
Clothesline Project featured on
campus. The Clothesline Project is
a visual display that bears witness
to violence against women. The
last time the Clothesline Project
was featured at 4Cs was a year
ago, and was paired with the
Honors colloquium Listening
to the Silenced, which focused
predominately on marginalized
groups of women across the globe.
It is where survivors or people
who care about sharing their
experience of sexual or domestic
abuse on t-shirts and display them
for the public to see. This project
has been going on since the year
1990 and has had such a great

turnout by the amount of people
reading and experiencing what
those women went through.
“We hope to fill the Quad with
clotheslines full of shirts to address
the issue of violence against
women,” said Jeanmarie Fraser,
Dean of Teaching and Learning
Resources and Technology who
was in charge of this whole project.

Open
House
for the
Open
Minds
By Annie Giannetti
This year’s open house for
prospective students and their
families at Cape Cod Community
College (4Cs) had a different
feel and agenda thanks to Nancy
Willets and Paul McCormick’s
event planning class. Students
in the class wearing matching
orange 4Cs t-shirts greeted the
newcomers, eager to answer any
questions as the event began last
Wednesday, April 12, in the Tilden
Arts Center.
“We have been planning this
event since the semester began,”
said Devon Dietz, a 4Cs student
from Sandwich who is graduating
in May. The event planning class
deals with the concentrations of
hospitality and communications,
he said.
“This is one of our largest
recruiting events of the year,” said
Matthew Cormier, Director of
Admissions. “It’s been so much
fun working with the students.”
Cormier noted that adding
student tours was a major change
to this year’s open house. Tours
included different departments
and other areas such as STEM,
admissions, and financial aid.

1984: 4Cs Gets Taste of an Orwellian Masterpiece
By John Hanright
In January of this year,
George Orwell’s 1984 topped
the bestsellers’ list on Amazon.
Published in 1949, the novel that
introduced the ubiquitous terms
“groupthink” and “thoughtcrime”
spawned many stage adaptations,
one of which is in production here
at Cape Cod Community College
(4Cs).
1984 was selected as part of
Cape Cod’s ArtSpring, which
in 2017 is exploring the theme
of freedom of expression. The
play is set in a world of constant
war, ever present government
surveillance, and most notably, a
political system dominated by a
cult of personality and control of
independent thinking by means
of a constructed language called
“Newspeak.”
The two main characters
of the play, Winston Smith
(Santino Torretti) and Julia
(Taryn VanEselstyn), are two
disillusioned and subversive Outer
Party members who must maintain
a discrete profile in the face of
the Thought Police and Inner
Party Comrade O’Brien (Patrick
O’Rourke).
“I
saw
the
audition
announcement on Cape Cod
Actor Network and I knew I had
to audition,” VanEselstyn said. “I
read for Julia and Parsons. I would
have been happy with either part
but Julia resonated with me.”

Moving Forward: Appreciation Breakfast
By John Hanright
This past Wednesday, April
12th, Project Forward hosted an
appreciation breakfast for workstudy students with Cape Cod
Community College’s (4Cs)
Project Forward, which is a
vocational skills training program
for students with significant
learning difficulties.
According to Project Forward’s
workforce
coordinator
Tara
Marini, this is the second year in a
row that the college has organized
an appreciation breakfast for the
program. “More people attended
this year as compared to last year,”
Marini said.
All 10 of the tables in the Tilden
Arts Center lobby were occupied
with students and employers who
enjoyed a breakfast of eggs, hash
browns, bacon, and fresh fruit
provided by Unidine, according
to Gina MacDonald, Head Chef
of the college’s cafeteria. The
breakfast is largely a way to thank
businesses in the community who
are sponsors of Project Forward.
“Not only do we want to thank the
employers we work with now, but
we want to entice other employers
in the community to see what a
great job our students do,” said
Nicole Mark, Project Forward
Photo Credit John Hanright
Director.
Marini said the work-study
program itself emphasizes “outof-classroom, hands-on training.”
Second year students are required
to complete 50 hours of work-study
with four job coaches available to
help. Work-study students with
Project Forward learn skills in
areas as diverse as healthcare
assistance, meal preparation,
landscape and maintenance, retail,
and hospitality.
Marini went on to mention
some of the work sites at which
Project Forward students are
hired. Students learning about
dementia and aging get handson experience “at local elder
and nursing facilities within the
community,” she said.
On a healthcare assistance
track, students learn to work as
a Dietary Assistant, Elder Care
Assistant, or Office Assistant
in a healthcare-related setting.
Training in CPR, basic First Aid,
and ServSafe Certification are also
included. Marini said that students
help at the Royal of Cotuit
Healthcare and Rehabilitation
Center, Royal of Megansett
Nursing and Retirement Home,
and the Pavilion in Hyannis.
Landscape and maintenance
students may work at Barnstable
Municipal Airport, Forestdale
Elementary
School,
or
Meetinghouse Farm in West
Barnstable. These work-study
students integrate “sustainable
maintenance
of
residential,
commercial, and institutional
landscapes” while working on an
organic farm, in a greenhouse, or
on the 4Cs’ campus doing painting
and landscaping.
Project Forward students also
work preparing food for the 4Cs’
cafeteria kitchen. “Sometimes

they make soups and package the
cookies. Mainly, they help with
preparation,” said MacDonald.
“We also deliver the Main Sheet;
that’s one of our big jobs,” said
Director Mark.
Whether it is making sure
that food from the cafeteria is
safely and carefully prepared,
maintaining and beautifying the
campus grounds, or ensuring that
print issues of the MainSheet
arrive on time every week, there
are many reasons to appreciate and
thank Project Forward students for
the time and effort they put in to
the work they do.
4Cs Theater Department Brings Orwell This Week
Continued from page 1
She added that Julia brings
“color into a really colorless
world.”
O’Rourke
said,
“Having
read the book in high school, I
knew I wanted to be involved
immediately.” The show utilizes
multimedia to “expose George
Orwell’s vision of the future,
specifically how government and
media outlets can influence both
behavior and opinion,” said Jamie
Horton in a release. Horton assists
in video production and plays
the role of Syme. The Cape Cod
Media Center (CCMC) in Dennis
Port is collaborating with 4Cs for
these multimedia elements.
“We
have
created
an
immersive environment that blurs
the lines between the watchers and
the watched,” said Vana Trudeau,
Director of 1984 and Tilden Arts
Center Coordinator. All of the
crew members have at least some
role in the production, whether
it is speaking or non-speaking.
Everyone indirectly interacts
with the audience in some way,
welcoming them to the fictional
country of Oceania “from the
moment they step up to the box
office,” she said.
Torretti said “No matter
what your political leanings are,
there is a pertinent message in
Orwell’s story,” particularly the
Patrick O’Rourke, Santino Torretti, and Taryn VanEselstyn
Photo Credit Remmy Waegelein
way in which powerful zealots
can convince masses of people
to believe in things they know
are false and to trust people who
are undeserving of any trust or
reverence. Torretti previously
acted in Who’s Afraid of Virginia
Woolf?, which was produced last
fall at 4Cs and was also directed
by Trudeau.
Cast member Mary CiprianiPratt remembered reading through
the script and thinking, “Holy
stage directions, Batman!” She
also thought that the playwright,
Matthew Dunster, had a very
specific set in mind. CiprianiPratt was in God Bless You, Mr.
Rosewater, another recent 4Cs
production, about which she said,
“Rosewater had many more actors,
and a larger set. It was a very fun
play with only a few dramatic
or sad moments, whereas 1984
is a very dramatic and sad play
with almost no fun moments.”
Stage Manager Shauna Joseph
said “I was drawn to this play
because I have played a part of a
lot of comedies, but not so many
dramatic productions. I thought
it’d be a good chance to explore
a different genre of theater for a
change.”
Initially intending to act in
the production, Joseph said she
was approached by Trudeau and
technical staff Kendra Murphy
and Brian Rice about filling an
opening for stage manager. “I saw
this as an opportunity to see the
rehearsal and performance from
a different perspective and to
challenge myself,” Joseph said.
One part of the production that
Joseph and O’Rourke said was
difficult was scene transitions. In
this play, there are several panels
and actor blocks to maneuver
down stairs and across the stage.
“I think it’s good that there are
frequent changes, to keep the
audience engaged,” O’Rourke
said. “But there are so many, and
they happen so quickly at times
that they can be a bit daunting.”
Joseph
shared
similar
sentiments concerning some of
the scene transitions. “I could do
without some of the transitions
because I constantly have to
change the diagrams I created,” she
said, “but that’s what the rehearsal
process is all about: figuring out
what works and what doesn’t,
and making those adjustments as
necessary.”
1984 opens in the Tilden Arts
Center Studio Theatre on April
20 at 7:30 PM, with additional
shows on April 21, 22, 27, 28, and
29 at 7:30 PM and April 22, 23,
29, and 30 at 2:00 PM. Tickets
are $15 for general admission
and $10 for seniors and service
members. Students are admitted
free. Seating is limited and tickets
can be reserved and ordered online
at
www.capecod.edu/theatre
or by calling the Box Office at
508.375.4044.
The public is also invited to a
special panel discussion of “fake
news” and “alternative facts” to
encourage more perceptive and
critical consumers of mass media.
The panel is scheduled to follow
the Sunday matinee performance
on April 23, which concludes at
4:30 PM.

Be Grateful of Your Mother: Earth Day
By Sierra Donovan
With Earth Day this upcoming
Saturday, most students probably
don’t have their calendars
marked or their schedules
filled with beach cleanups and
public demonstrations, which is
understandable given the busy
and hectic world we live in.
However, it is an unavoidable
truth that human impact on the
environment is growing, and we
can choose to either be the cause
or the cure. But that doesn’t mean
sacrificing your weekend planting
trees or organizing a recycling
fair, because there are plenty of
extremely significant actions
anybody can incorporate into their
lives whether you are a passionate
environmental activist or a
constantly active college student.
According to the World
Health Organization, almost 12.6
million people die from diseases
associated with environmental
hazards, such as air, water, or soil
pollution and climate change.
That means one out of every four
human deaths, not to mention
the growing extinction rates of
other species, is attributed to an
increasingly toxic environment
that humanity as a species has
both the ability and responsibility
to control and reverse. In order to
change these worrying statistics,
there are several small actions
almost anyone can take that help
move society toward a healthier,
more sustainable future.
As
mindful
consumers,
individuals have more sway
and power than most realize.
Many companies value nothing
more than the buying habits of
their customers, as it tells them
what kind of products their
demographic wants from them
and will continue spending their
hard-earned money on. 70% of the
American gross domestic product
economy is driven by consumer
spending, according to multiple
Wall Street Journal and New
York Times articles. If millions
of people started buying ecofriendly products from household
cleaners to clothing made from
organic cotton, businesses would
begin to shift their focus to more
sustainable and environmentally
conscious merchandise.
The more in-demand a product
is, the more that product will be
produced. Increased production
causes the cost per unit to go down,
therefore making it accessible to a
broader consumer base, feeding
into a cycle that optimally benefits
everyone involved, including
the Earth. Students can apply
this to their lives by substituting
something they buy often for a
more
environmentally-friendly
version of it whenever possible.
This could mean buying reusable,
recyclable,
compostable,
or
naturally sourced products, or
reducing or cutting some out
altogether.

While there is a lot we can do
to minimize our individual waste
in the household, there are also
many other things that can be done
to reduce the amount of pollution
our society puts out into the
world. The simple act of reading
this article could be considered a
step in the right direction, because
awareness of environmental issues
is the foundation for positive
change. “Education and spreading
information is important,” says
Naomi Arenberg, general manager
of WKKL and radio broadcasting
professor at Cape Cod Community
College. “Most people do not
understand the impact we have,
and it’s the responsibility of those
educated about it to inform those
who may be less educated.”
Combatting climate change
may seem like an insurmountable
task, but applying environmental
consciousness to daily life
is so simple it can become
automatic: conserving water
by taking shorter showers,
reducing carbon emissions by
taking public transportation or
carpooling to work, and shopping
at secondhand stores can all help
make your footprint on the earth
a little lighter. As individuals, it
is difficult to believe that we have
the power to make a difference
concerning this global issue, but,
to quote the eloquent Mahatma
Ghandi, “You must be the change
you wish to see in the world.”
Prospective Students Check Out Powerful Futures
Continued from page 1
Tours stopped at different staff
offices, the advising and O’Neil
centers, he said.
The event planning class,
which is offered each spring,
voted on several choices early in
the semester. According to Becca
Silva, 4Cs student from Falmouth,
the class chose to plan the open
house because the admissions team
was looking for a new direction.
“We tried to update it more, and
now it’s a little more interactive,”
said Silva, mentioning that
student-run tours, more food,
more opportunities for questions,
and more emphasis of the Duffy,
Advantage, and O’Neil Center
were among some of the changes.
“People can see we have a lot
of support. I have enjoyed my time
here a lot more than I anticipated,”
Silva said.
Silva, a non-traditional aged
student, especially sought to reach
out to the Cape’s older population
as well as graduating high school
students. “We mailed postcards,
and we posted them around
different places on the Cape to
reach older people as well,” she

Clothing Bears Profound Stories of Abuse
Continued from page 1
According to the Clothesline
Project website that Fraser shared,
51,000 women died as a result of
domestic violence from men who
claimed to love them. This statistic,
reported in the summer of 1990,
would become the ignition that
would jumpstart the Clothesline
Project to shed light on this issue.
The founders of the Project
thought it was natural that t-shirts
on a clothesline was fitting
because people associate laundry
with women. It honors women
survivors as well as victims
of intimate violence, and any
woman who has experienced such
violence, at any time in her life.
The colors of the shirts signified
particular experiences. The white
shirts mean women who have been
murdered as a result of sexual or
domestic violence: red, pink or
orange means women who have
been raped or sexually assaulted;
yellow or beige means women
who have been battered; blue or
green color t-shirts are survivors
of incest or child sexual abuse and
purple or lavender are women who
were attacked because they were
or thought they were a lesbian.
Everyone has their story, and
those women choose to share their
story to the public. This project
is held at a lot more colleges
other than at 4Cs. http://www.
clotheslineproject.org has photos
of the other projects going around
the country, it also has information
on how to start a project, who to
contact if someone is a victim, or
knows someone who is a victim.

Review: Local Lunches of the CCCC Cafe
By Ben Thompson
Cape Cod Community College
(4Cs), Grossman Commons,
noon—the wind swept the leaves
through the courtyard, people
with halved cardboard boxes and
paper plates filed to their tables,
student and faculty mingling
to sate the appetite that only a
hard day’s work of academia can
cause. Some bring lunches from
home, some purchase lunches
from the kitchens, conveniently
located adjacent to the cafeteria
for minimizing how far one must
walk from A to B, groggy from
pulling an all-nighter studying for
that Nursing or Dental Hygiene
final or for that research paper they
have been procrastinating for three
months. All kinds of strange and
familiar faces and characters file in
and out, an unending tide of faces
soon gone with wind. This is the
witching hour of 4Cs: lunchtime.
So, here is a guide to shepherd and
inform the wayfaring lunch-goer
about what foods the kitchen of
4Cs has to offer during and after
lunchtime, the good, the bad, and
the ugly.
The first thing one might notice
upon entering the kitchen is the
rack of “Fresh Hot Pizza” boxes.
Within the triangular box resides
a three-dollar pizza. The pizza
has good presentation with visible
seasoning and cheese that is not
too stringy. The cheese clings to
the pizza dough well, and does
not slide, making it manageable
to eat. However, the dough was a
tad chewy, needing to have risen
in the oven a pinch longer, but
was only a minor subtraction from
the cheese and sauce that were
seasoned flavorfully. Altogether,
a decent pizza, but slightly above
$2.50, the average cost for a pizza
in Barnstable.
Directly across from the pizza
racks are the chicken tenders
and French fries. While the
presentation is simple, this was
by far one of the best items on the
menu. The chicken was tender and
moist, and the fries were perfectly
done without being dry. At $5.00
for the chicken, fries, and a drink,
this is a good choice for a light
lunch.
However, not all was clear on
the western front. The plain beef
of the hamburger was dry and
bland, dwarfed in comparison
to the bread, a small disc stuck
between two inches of bun. If you
like hamburgers with flavorful
beef for a decent price, take a pass
on this one.
The veggie burger was a step up
The cafeteria in Grossman Commons decorated for Easter

with flavor and texture, and the
veggie patty was thicker than the
burger this time. The veggie patty
sat snug between two squashed
buns, and had a pasty, smooth
texture clashing with large carrot
chunks distributed throughout
as startling, orange landmines.
Despite its difficult texture, the
veggie burger retained, while
certainly an acquired taste, an
organic taste. The veggie burger at
three dollars is a reasonable option
for vegetarians, some vegans,
and anyone looking for a natural,
healthier meal.
The soup of the day, the garden
vegetable soup, is the jack of
the menu, going well with most
anything. This particular soup has
a spicy ting without turning one’s
mouth into a human torch that
gives a boost in flavor. At $1.50
for small, and $2.50 for large, the
garden vegetable soup is another
healthy, and tasty, choice.
The service was efficient and
friendly, taking no more than
thirty seconds. While having a
limited menu, 4Cs cafeteria has
great service, some tasty and
healthy options, and provides a
boost for the wayfaring lunch-goer
to get through the day without
distractions by a thundering
appetite.
Free Agents: Gilmore Signs $65 Million Contract
The Patriots new cornerback Stephon Gilmore
Photo Credit profootballrumors.com
By Nick Bruinooge
The Patriots began this
offseason with a bang, signing
highly coveted free agent
cornerback Stephon Gilmore to a
five-year contract worth 65 million
dollars (40 million guaranteed).
This is the highest paying nonquarterback contract the Patriots
have ever given out. This is
not typical Patriots free agency
signing in the Bill Belichick era.
More often than not the Patriots
under Belichick have avoided the
day-one big money deals and have
often opted to bide their time and
go for the cost effective, under
the radar players that will fit in
the system. Danny Woodhead,
Chris Hogan, Wes Welker, and
Leigh Bodden are all examples of
the low-risk, high reward type of
player that the team often targets.
Along with the Gilmore
signing, the Patriots have also
been very active on the trade
market swinging deals for wide
receiver Brandin Cooks, tight end
Dwayne Allen, and defensive end
Kony Ealy at the expense of draft
picks. Cooks is a highly talented,
explosive downfield receiver that
has rarely existed in the Patriots
offense, the one exception being
Randy Moss from 2007-2010.
Despite his slight stature of only
5’10’, 23-year-old Cooks is a
player who will force an opposing
defense to respect his ability to
stretch the field and break off
large chunks of yardage. He has
averaged 13.3 yards per reception
through his first three years in
the league (with New Orleans).
Dwayne Allen is very comparable
to his predecessor Martellus
Bennett, a solid blocking tight end
who can make catches when the
ball is thrown his way. Kony Ealy
is best known for his memorable
performance in Super Bowl 50,
registering three sacks and an
interception on Peyton Manning.
Ealy will serve as a rotational
player on the defensive line.
It is possible that there are more
dominos yet to fall in this already
busy offseason for the Patriots; the
team has recently been linked to
other big names such as Richard
Sherman and Marshawn Lynch.
Seven time pro-bowler and 2012
league MVP Adrian Peterson
worked out for the Patriots at the
team facility but no contract has
reportedly been offered yet. If
Malcolm Butler signs his restricted
free agent tender he will add more
horsepower to an already loaded
secondary alongside fellow probowlers Stephon Gilmore and
Devin McCourty. Butler has until
April 21st to sign his tender.
The Patriots have never had
an offseason quite like this one,
full of big names and big money
deals. Not only are these moves
not typical of New England, they
are not typical of a defending
champion. Bill Belichick has
accomplished more than anyone
in his position could ever hope to
accomplish having already won
a total of 7 championships (two
with the New York Giants). If he
is eyeing another run at a perfect
season, this team will give him
the best chance to do it since the
previous team in 2007.

Foreign Film: Mostly Martha
By Andrew Schwarzer
As what we are becomes
who we are, we tend to forget
how we are. That can cause
us to forget what life is about,
too. Mostly Martha, directed by
Sandra Nettlebeck, seems like a
predictable story about a woman
who’s reminded that she’s become
lost in her own world. There’s
more in life for Martha than just
Martha’s world.
Martha is the head chef at the
restaurant Lido. She’s at the height
of her profession, and her perfect
culinary world is all that matters.
Every dish is exceptional. Her
work is flawless, but Martha is not.
Her pride turns into arrogance.
Martha cannot take any criticism;
how can ignorant customers know
culinary perfection?
Martha lives and breathes only
in her professionally culminated
world. The isolation turns into
loneliness, leading her boss to send
a bewildered Martha to therapy.
Martha doesn’t have a recipe to
figure how what ingredients she’s
missing. She only communicates
with food. Her perfect world is
flawed, and so is she.
When Martha’s sister dies, her
eight-year-old niece Lina stays
with her. The grieving Lina needs
love and patient understanding,
and to fill this order, Martha brings
Lina to work. Where Martha fails,
the new temporary chef Mario
succeeds. Perhaps it’s because
Mario is Italian, like Lina’s
estranged father, or perhaps it is
Mario’s warm caring and playful
manner. He connects with Lina
and Martha, who accepts the help
that she needs.
Martha learns that life is not
about creating your own perfect
world, nor is it about being
a perfect chef. It’s all about
becoming the best ingredient in
life.

WKKL DJ of the Week: DJ Metalcore
By Andrew Schwarzer
Cory Elichalt aka “DJ
Metalcore” loves being a DJ on
WKKL. “It allows me to interact
with others who share my taste in
music,” he said.
Metalcore signed up for radio
broadcasting in the fall of 2015.
“My uncle suggested I do a radio
show at the family Christmas
party,” Metalcore said. That was
