Currently, 69 per cent of the this aid (a reduction of 349 students at Longwood are students).

student loans for graduate students will be completely abolished. The 1982-83 school year would represent minimal loss for Pell Grants. But in 1983-84, $91 million will be cut. This would eliminate over one million students nationwide. At Longwood 44 per cent of the money will be cut and drop those receiving PG from 587 to 326 students. Supplemental Grants (SEOG) will be cut by 48 per cent and leave only 31 students from a current 59. But in 1983-84 the program will be cut.

will be halted. This will reduce the 425 Longwood students receiving it by 50 per cent. Ironically, students will not be given much of a chance to work for their tuition because the Federal Work Study program foresees a reduction of 26 per cent in 1982-83. This, coupled with a phase-out program for college age social security recipients does not leave many alternatives for students confronted with

rising tuition costs in the years to come. Every September, beginning next fall, social security benefits will be cut by 25 per cent until the student leaves school or turns i twenty-two. But for entering freshmen there will be no social security unless they are enrolled as a full-time student before May 1, 1982. The program will be completely gone for all college students in four years.

THE ROTUNDA

By RUSTY ROXX IS ROCK ART? (Parti) It is an often asked question, and a reasonable one, if rock is art. Of course, one can argue the aesthetics of what makes a work "art" but, if we take "a distillation and projection of experience" as a raison detre for art and we agree that art, to be good art, must be 1) fresh, 2) have viable communicative ability, 3) be contained and ultimately time or space land therefore time to space, space to space relation) and 4) must be coherent. Though these rules are fairly arbitrary, all great art falls into their category. Music has certain relation to the other arts but not always. The vast amount of music we call "art music" or (a less attractive term), "serious music" was almost always written for immediate and terminal consumption. In fact, creating music for the ages is a relatively new concept, one that did not exist before Beethoven. Operas were done, then thrown away, in fact we know little about a number of facets of music (i.e. the performance of chant) because, until the nineteenth

VAE-Get Out and Sing By CINDY CORELL V.A.E. is a group of sixteen energetic, talented singerdancers, an enthusiastic director and a skilled accompanist. V.A.E., (Vocal Arts Ensemble), is I-angwood's newest performing ensemble, basically a show choir including vocals, choreography and multi-instrumental accompaniment. "We still need some more funds for equipment, but as far as the rest goes — the group itself is off the ground," said director Louard Egbert, motioning toward the ensemble as they were working through the as yet rough formation of one choreographed number. "What we hope to be is a sort of publicrelations group," he said. "We want to get out and sing." The group is currently rehearsing each Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, filling their repertoire with mainly popular numbers. Many selections will be choreographed and will be performed in costume, while some will be performed in standing position. "We want anyone who has ever been involved in anything like this before to come out and audition for us," said Dr. Egbert "We are interested in people whc

can sing, dance and read music fairly well. This semester we will need another tenor, a jazz pianist, an electric bass player, and a drummer." Anyone interested in any of these positions should see Dr. Egbert in the Music Dept. as soon as possible, one credit hour is available to members of the ensemble. Vocal Arts Ensemble was originally organized in the fall of 1980. That group performed as a part of the Oktoberfest "Pops" concert and also performed with the Jazz Band Mardi Gras weekend in 1981. The group is planning at least one on-campus performance this semester, probably during Spring Weekend. This summer they will be returning for a workshop given by visiting artist Kirby Shaw, the nationally known Jazz Show Choir composer and arranger. Dr. Egbert hopes anyone interested in joining the group next semester will attend this workshop and will also return to campus one week early to organize the ensemble for next semester. The group is divided equally into four vocal parts and the members are: soprano: Marcie Swale, Angie Peters, Theresa

Editors Note: This is a copy of a speech that Mr. Bradbury made at last Tuesday's press conference. Since then an agreement has been made between the IFC and the administration.

. To Editor, The Rotunda: This statement concerns the consumption of alcohol in ! Fraternity Chapter Rooms. Nearly a month ago one of the i fraternities on campus was charged with illegal consumption of alcohol in its chapter room. Later, al! charges were dropped as there were no clear i cut definitive guidelines concerning this issue. As I said before, here we are a month later »nd still no decision has been made. It is the opinion of many Fraternity members on campus that our basic civil liberties are being denied. We pay the college rent to lease these rooms. We are forced to abide by visitation guidelines established by the college and yet we are not afforded the same rights as other students. These chapter rooms are not public places; we are allowed to conduct our ritual meetings and

Too Much —Too Soon Northwestern University's Endicott Report states — "94 per cent of the companies surveyed are satisfied with the performance of the 1981 graduates. When the employers had complaints they were:" 1. The graduates' unrealistic goals. "They expect too much too soon!" 2. Poor communication skills. 3. Weak in time management, ability to handle pressure, and maturity. 4. Lack of motivation, confidence, and career direction.

Sample Before Buying

Army ROTC Basic Camp offers college students better than a money back guarantee. "Basic Camp gives students the chance to sample Army life before they make a decision to enroll in the Army ROTC program," said CPT Tom Stanford, Assistant Professor of Military Science at Longwood. "It's better than a money back guarantee because students receive top mental and physical training during Basic Camp and are paid for their time whether or not they choose to continue." This past summer more than 2,000 college students from across the country spent six weeks at Fort Knox, Kentucky undergoing intensive Basic Camp training. Those completing the course successfully were given the option to enroll in the Army ROTC Advanced Course and take advantage of ROTC's two-year program. "Students who take part in Basic Camp have either recently transferred from colleges that don't offer Army ROTC, are recent community or junior college graduates, or are young men and women who, after two years, have suddenly decided to take a look at Army ROTC," said CPT Stanford. Six students from Longwood went through Basic Camp last summer. According to CPT Stanford, all of these students continued in ROTC. "Most of the students can't and our current budget is only $32,000. Instead of a $16,000 wait to enroll in the Advanced increase, we have only had an Course," CPT Stanford said. $8,000 increase. If Mr. Rollins would like for us to have a current budget of $36,000, we would be more than happy to accept the extra $4,000. Cathy Roach, Treasurer Student Union

business in them without the threat of public interference. Recognized and even unrecognized student groups are allowed to reserve the party rooms in Cox and Frazer dormitories for the explicit use of consumption of alcohol in them. It seems pretty foolish to me and also detrimental to the reputation of the college to allow drinking in these public areas but not in a private area such as chapter rooms. One benefit that could be realized by the college by allowing this activity in chapter rooms is that it would open up other areas on campus for independent students to conduct parties. Also, it would encourage fraternity members to stay on campus and not have to experience the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol. Our main bone of contention, as I've already indicated to Dr. Salters in writing, is that the fraternities wish to abide by and be afforded the privileges of the citizens of the state of Virginia, the students of Longwood College and the national laws that we are subject to. Dallas Bradbury

Well Take The Extra Cash Editor, The Rotunda: The Student Union would like to thank Duke Rollins for his kind comments about us in a recent issue of the Rotunda. However, Mr. Rollins commented that the Student Union budget had risen from $20,000 to $36,000 over the past 3 years. In reality, our budget 3 years ago was $24,000

Students Chance to "They consider Basic Camp a great confidence builder and an excellent way to work themselves into top shape both mentally and physically. Equally as important, they like what ROTC can offer them both now while they are in school, and in the future." "Basic Camp gave me the opportunity to see the Army as it really is before I made my commitment. I'm glad I went," said Nick Ciucci, a psychology major. "Basic Camp was an experience! It was hard and it was challenging; but it was fun. When you finished you were proud of yourself and your friends. The friends you make, you'll keep. I'm glad I went to Fort Knox last summer, it made it easy to make my decision about the Army. I'd do it again!" says Tanya Gallop, business major. Cadet Major Larry Richardson, a 1980 Basic Camp graduate, says, "Basic Camp was a lot of fun. I met a lot of people from all over the country. The training was challenging and the social life was fantastic!" Another benefit of ROTC Basic Camp is the opportunity to earn a two-year scholarship. There are plenty of them available and they are awarded solely on the basis of outstanding performance at camp, not on financial need. Interested sophomores are encouraged to stop by and talk to any ROTC faculty member about this opportunity. The ROTC department is on the third floor of East Ruffner.

Exploring New Realms of the Network By EDDIE HOLLANDAR The room is quite ordinary by collegiate standards: confederate flag, Frampton poster, brimming ash trays, aluminum Budweisers, nothing new here. Conn wears nikes and is addicted to sunkist and salem light. Alaric the cleric was seen last night wearing a tie to a cocktail party. Even the dungeon master is -awkwardly, whatnormal (the phrase is blasphemy) handing out homemade twelve per cent beer. "Alcohol helps a lot with this...keeps the nerves from fraying." The Dungeon Master looks up at Conn — "He just missed ya Conn, the doubledge hammer chinked off your armor like this". He joins his hands above his head, as if in homage, and brings them down twisting at the last second with a tongue slapped click. Conn's eyes are wide, "Jesus! lucky I spent my last twenty gold pieces on the magnate plates." His forehead has a thin layer of sweat, he swallows the sunkist. A flip of fate. The dice. "Shit...missed again:' Wait a minute you have a plus one strength factor and plus one armor factor". The Dungeon Master informs him showing a finger smudged index card — one of a thousand. "Another turn of the wheel. "Man" electric, awe filled hesitation 'ya killed him Conn". The blood sticky corpse and double edged hammer evaporate with the victory, to the outer realms of fantasy, where reality is tailored to the imagination. The game is Dragons and Dungeons, D&D to its devotee's. When first introduced in 1974, Dragons and Dungeons caught mostly high school students in its web of intrique i spiders, yes, spiders are also a favorite creature) but lately has been spiraling outwards catching college students, elementary aged children and even adults in its sticky network. E. Gary Gygax, a shoemaker by profession, invented the game one night thinking of helpful elves and other such quasi-real creatures. Apparently coming to the realization that although the

The average elf, however is content with a bottle of brew and vivid imagination. An imagination which, in this game, unlike a movie or book not only identifies them with the hero but makes them the hero. Not that there aren't heroines, the female gender seems to be equally attracted to D&D's romantic appeal.

—Movie Review— By FRED W. CAMPBELL The 1981 Christmas movie season (which is, oddly enough, lasting through February in Farmville) seems to have change as its central theme. In many of the films released this season, audiences have seen actors and actresses alike engaged in an attempt to reconstruct and redirect their careers. James Cagney, who several years ago went into a premature retirement, has suddenly reemerged as one of the stars of "Ragtime". Burt Reynolds shed his careless "Bandit" image to direct and star in "Sharkey's Machine", while Steve Martin turned to a Buzby Berkley style of song and dance in "Pennies from Heaven".

Not to be outdone, Sydney Pollock's "Absense of Malice" also shows us some changing stars; namely, Sally Field and Paul Newman. The film's primary concern seems to be that the audience recognize and appreciate the new images of these heralded performers but instead of making these assertions, "Absense of Malice" leaves only unanswered questions in its wake. Sally Field gives a less than enthusiastic performance as Megan Carter, a hardnose Lois Lane type of newspaper reporter, whose personality can best be described as overliberated. Having left her days as Burt Reynolds' Tonto for critical praise and our Oscar for "Norm*

Rae", Fields has begun acting in a serious vein, possibly in an attempt to gain further recognition from the Academy. Unfortunately, she falls short of this mark in "Absence of Malice". Her character seems forced and awkward and lacks development. The unanswered question here is, can Sally Field pull off another serious role of the same caliber as "Norma Rae"? The acting trophy for the film goes to Paul Newman, whose portrayal of Michael Gallagher, is somewhat reminiscent of Marlon Brandow in "On the Waterfront". For the first time, Newman demonstrated convincingly that the cute-boy image of his "Butch Cassidy" days is gone. The unanswered

question in this case is, what took him so long. "Absence of Malice" also has its faults separate from the actors, one being its blah and often unrealistic script. There is an attempt to give the viewer an inside look at the newspaper business. The problem is, we've seen it all before. The script deviates from reality with such events as Field's haphazard writing of a story linking Newman with the disappearance of a certain Union executive. My friends in journalism tell me that writing a story on a whim with no proof whatsoever is simply just not done. Sydney Pollock's directing also

leaves a lot to be desired. Granted, he had a very weak script to work with, but such campy scenes as a paper carrier delivering papers at dawn to demonstrate the spreading of the news show us that Pollack hasn't changed a bit. Then again, there is reasonable doubt as to whether any director could do a good job directing this film. "Absence of Malice" fails to reach the mark set for it by its previews. For Sally Fields, it's back to the beginning in her attempts to establish herself as a serious actress. For Paul Newman, it is a giant plus. For the general audience, it is a disappointing, rehashed, absence jf entertainment.

SPORTS B-ball gets by All. Christian 64-59 The Ix>ngwood College Mens Basketball team performed admirably for most of the first half but almost blew it in the second as a comeback by AtlanticChristian's Bulldogs fell just five points short. For most of the first half, the lancers played like a well-timed machine, amassing a 40-20 lead with 55 seconds left in the first half, but then they must have blown a gasket because for the rest of the game they were pretty inept, letting a twenty-point lead with a minute left in the half shrink to a three point lead with plenty of time remaining. As mentioned, the game started with longwood blowing the opponents out of the gym, playing the fast style game that they are most comfortable playing. Defense was a major contributor to this as AtlanticChristian only managed 12 points in the first 10 minutes of the game, 1/ongwood was in a nasty spread-zone and the result was humorous turnovers by Atlantic Christian and several resulting fast breaks by Longwood. Offensively, the Lancers basically did everything that they wanted to do highlighted by several successful follow shots by Randy Johnson, a well-timed alley-oop from Mike McCroey to Jerome Kersey and two good slam-dunks by Ron Orr. Orr's second dunk was an especially

awesome piece of work as he went straight up the middle, took the feed from Mike Testa without breaking stride and slammed the ball home one-handed, climaxing the first half offensive barrage by the lancers. Not long after this, though, Atlantic Christian found the spark they needed to ignite their so far dead offense in the form of a slam by 6-7 center, James Leggett. No running start or anything like that was needed here. I^eggett simply got the ball, pivoted to position, jumped the necessary height and rammed the ball through. No sweat, huh0 Play went evenly and not very excitingly for the next few minutes as Atlantic Christian suddenly turned into a basketball team again. The last minute of the half was the turning point for the Bulldogs as they outscored Longwood 12-3 cutting the lead to a manageable 11 points at the half, 43-32. The second half was highlighted by such impressive statistics as is fouls by Atlantic Christian and all of three field goals by longwood. Atlantic Christian, led by the performances of Leggett. and Oary Knox and James Daniel off the bench, slowly scratched their way back into the game. By 4:26 left in the game, they were within three at 56-53. They took advantage of I/>ngwood's low

free throw percentage by fouling whenever it was advantageous to prevent an easy booklet and this strategy definitely cut into 1-ongwood's point total. The only high point all half for the lancers was when Jerome Kersey stole the ball at midcourt and dribbled towards the basket for the inevitable flying one-armed slam-dunk that brought the fans to their feet, the Bulldogs to their knees and the game to a momentary half so Atlantic Christian could take a free-throw for a technical on Kersey for scoring the hell out of the backboard or something like that. But other than that, Longwood showed no real offense for the half, mainly due to a tenacious and downright dirty defense by Atlantic Christian, but there were still enough bad shots to give the I^ancers some reason to be ashamed of their second half performance. Longwood finally felt the heat though and outscored the Bulldogs 8-6 in the last four minutes to escape with the victory: 64-59.

By GARY THORNHILL Longwood's men's basketball team has compiled a record of 6120 over the past three seasons and a pair of Elizabeth, New Jersey natives have played key roles in that success. Joe Remar, a 6-0 junior guard, and Ron Orr, a 6-6 junior center, have been starters for three seasons, helping the lancers to a 28-3 record in 1979-80 and a berth in the Final Four in Division III, a record of 19-9 in 1980-81 and 14-8 so far this season. Counting two years at Elizabeth High School. Remar and Orr have played together the last five seasons. A solid scorer and playmaker, Remar holds the game, season and career assist records for the 1-ancers. With a career total of 379, he once handed out 15 assists in a game. In the 1980-81 season he dished out 145 assists to set the record for assists in a season. Handing out assists isn't the only thing Remar does well. Presently, he is second in career points with 992. With two games left in the season he may well go over the 1,000 point mark. Remar says experience has helped him develop as a basketball player, i concentrate more on what I'm doing now and I can handle pressure better," he said. "1 have gained more confidence in myself as the years have gone by." Orr is the lancer career field goal percentage leader. He is presently shooting 61.3 per cent

SPORTS Rugby Loses to United 20-16 The Iiongwood College Rugby Football Club played to the United Rugby Football Club's performance level but simply not get the ball past the goal line when they got within range in their losing effort of 20-16 Saturday afternoon on a rather small field at the President's house. United took the initiative at the start and drove down far enough to successfully kick a field goal giving the fans a first glance at what was United's biggest advantage of the game's kicking. The score now being 3-0, IiOngwood drove down the field, got very close and was then repelled by United, whose defense tightened up vastly when threatened with a score. The action was even for a while. Then United got a break and advanced the ball far enough to kick another field goal making the score 6-0. Before long, Longwood was knocking on United's door again but United's defense, apparently not in a very receptive mood, held up again, forcing lx>ngwood to attempt a field goal from a bad angle which Marty Mann scruffed. So to this point, Ixmgwood had gotten to within spitting distance of United's goal twice and come up with nothing while United had barely been inside Ixwigwood's 22 meter line on two occasions and kicked two fine field goals. What

Ixuigwood needed was a quick strike and that was what they eventually got when Vaugn Jipner broke through the initial line of United defenders and started on a run for the goal. Bringing down Jipner is about as easy as keeping down Slater's food but some little guy nailed him good at about the 22 meter line and he had to release the ball. Fortunately, some of Longwood's backs followed him down the field and were right on top of the ball when Jipner gave it up, getting it out to Guy Delauderantes , who scampered in with it on the far right side. Marty Mann was good with the extra points and Longwood was now on top 8-6. United got back in to the lead shortly after on a literal gift. A long punt from a United back bounced just right for United and just wrong for the receiver, Guy DeLauderantes, who had to chase the ball clear into the end zone, still had trouble getting a handle on the ball and had his return kick blocked, whereupon United, having a numbers advantage easily got the ball past the goal for their first try of the game. The extra points attempt was good making the score 14-8, United. It was a great kick that caused the United-try and as a result, United would do a good deal of kicking for the rest of the game. They worked their way downfield

and near the end of the half had a scrum-down situation within five yards of the goal. Normally the two teams could push about equally in the scrum but this time, United smelled blood. They pushed longwood clear past the goal line keeping the ball underfoot until it too was in the end-zone, whereupon their scrum half pounced on it for the try, making the score 20-8. The points after attempt failed and the half soon ended. In the second half, United got down close a couple of times but they would score no more as longwood got tough on defense. Problem was, whenever Longwood got close, someone from United would just kick the ball clear out to midfield and longwood would have to start another drive and usually have the same thing happen again. One time, though, this was not the case. Kurt Mueller toed the ball to himself from five yards out and got right to the line before meeting resistance. The ball got loose in the end-zone and Doug Woods dropped on it giving Ixmgwood its second try. Mann successfully converted again and the score was now 20-16: United. Time expired soon after, though, and United's victory was preserved at 20-16. The B game ended in no score.

Riding 6th in Show The Ixmgwood Riding Team travelled to Sweet Briar College Friday to compete in their first show this semester. longwood finished sixth overall, boasting individual results of one first, and three second place ribbons. Coach Marty Whitlock is very pleased with the young team's efforts both this semester and last semester. There were four shows last semester. "I think we've done exceptionally well — we have four members of a ten member team who have moved

up a division by winning the required number of points. Mary Brockwell, a freshman, has already qualified for regionals. She has gotten three blues (first place) and two seconds. Pam Svaboda and Bryan Farrar both attended the National Finals last year and both need a few points to qualify for regionals this year." Coach Whitlock is concerned that many students do not understand the complexities of the Riding Team competitions. When the Riding Team competes,

Gymnasts Finish Season With Win-Host State Championships Saturday By LISA SPENCER The Longwood gymnasts closed their regular season Saturday with wins over Towson State and Frostburg. The Lady Lancers scored 129.0 to Towson's 128.35 and Frostburg's 111.9 to up their record to 7-4. Kathy Idelson won the all-around with 32.60. The gymnasts will now begin preparing to host the VAIAW State Championships in lancer Hall at 2:00 p.m. Saturday. Longwood will be vying for the top spot along with James Madison, Radford, and William & Mary. I^ast year the I^ady I oncers placed second in the overall competition, and first in Division II with Radford and W&M second and third. Lady I^ancers' coach Ruth Budd predicts that the competition will be a close one, and that the title is up for grabs. "All the teams that are competing are about the same skill level this year," she commented. "The winner will probably be the team that can stick its beam routines." Boasting the top competitors in the state in vaulting and floor exercise, Longwood stands a good chance of taking the title this year. Freshman Dayna Hankinson has won the floor exercise event in every in-state competition this season. Another freshman, Kelly Crepps, has won the vaulting competition in every

it competes against every available team in the region, and there are now eighteen teams in this region. Some of these include Mary Washington, U.Va., William and Mary, and Randolph-Macon's Women's College. The team members and their individual scores in Friday's The Ixmgwood I^Crosse Club show are as follows: Open has been organized here on Division: Pam Svaboda, 6th on campus. The club is open to all flat, 4th over fences, Carol members of the longwood community and welcomes (Continued on Page 8) anybody who wants to learn about one of the upcoming games in the country! At their last meeting the following officers were elected: Bruce Lindeman — Pres.; D.J. Walters - Vice Pres.; Mike Atkins — Treasurer; Karl Kiracofe — Game Secretary; Capt. Tom Stanford — Advisor. The club plans to organize informal practices this spring to introduce the players to the game and learn the basic

meet. These two gymnasts, along with Monica Chandler and Kathy Idelson have also been strong in the all-around competition for the Ix*dy lancers. This state championship will be an extra special one for senior gymnast Kathy Idelson. Kathy who became logwood's first Ail-American in any sport in 1979, will be graduating this May. She has been a strong and consistent gymnast for longwood since her first competition. Kathy has qualified for nationals every season, and was selected the 1979 Female Athlete of the Year for Ixmgwood. She also holds the Longwood scoring record in the balance beam (8.65). Ixmgwood's bid for the state title will be hampered by the loss of sophomore Kim Pickel to an injury. Kim tore a ligament in her leg while warming up in vaulting against Duke and UMBC. She will be unable to compete for the rest of the season. The state championships will be enhanced now by the donation of a travelling trophy to the winner of the Division II team title. This trophy, inspired by the father of ex-W&M gymnast Jan Roltsch, is donated to the competition in the memory of the late Lisa Winkler, a gymnast who competed for both Ixmgwood and W&M.

Orr, Remar Vital (Continued from Page 8) simply that studying harder had helped improve his grades. When asked why he came to Longwood, Orr replied, "I thought Longwood would be a challenge academically and it's away from home. Longwood was expanding in sports and academics and I wanted to be a part of it." Orr said he had enjoyed his time at Longwood. "It's a small school and I can make my presence known here," said Remar. The growing basketball program also played a major role in his decision. When reflecting on their years here, both said that they enjoyed all the people they had met and plan to complete their education at Ixmgwood. Since journeying south three years ago Orr and Remar have made their mark at Longwood. The New Jersey connection has been a productive one for Lancer basketball.
