Longwood Signs Agreement With German College Longwood College has taken a first step toward developing "a global consciousness," one of the goals outlined by President Janet Greenwood in her inaugural address last April. After sessions of exploration and discovery on both sides of the Atlantic, Ixmgwood has entered into an official "agreement of partnership" with the Fachhochschule fuer Sozialarbeit und Sozialpaedagogik (Technical College for Social Work and Social Work Education) in West Berlin. It is the oldest school of social work in Europe. The agreement, signed by President Greenwood and HansJochen Brauns, Rektor of the F.H.S.S., states that the two institutions "having found that they share many educational goals, visions, and problems declare themselves to be partner institutions and undertake to seek appropriate means to develop and deepen their relationship." The goals of the partnership include four "areas of mutual concern": international and intercultural understanding; curricular and program development; applications of technology in human-service delivery; and personal and professional development. The F.H.S.S. has a faculty of approximately 50 professors and a student body drawn from Berlin, West Germany and throughout Europe. The students

complete six semesters of classwork and a two-semester practicum. They must then pass a state examination to be certified in their profession. Fields of specialization at the F.H.S.S. include social work, social research, social medicine, social work education and educational media, and social psychology and law. Initial contacts-leading to the partnership agreement were made last summer by Dr. Michael Haltzel, Longwood's vice president for academic affairs, during his stay in Hamburg and Berlin as a member of an American Young Leaders delegation invited by the Haus Rissen International Institute for

Politics and Economics and the West German Foreign Office. To identify potential partners among German institutions of higher learning, Dr. Haltzel spoke with the executive director of the Ful bright Commission in West Germany (Haltzel was a member of that commission from 1976-78) and with government officials he knew there. They suggested that he contact David Kramer, an American who is Prorektor (dean) of the F.H.S.S. "Dr. Kramer and I met and decided that the partnership idea was worth pursuing," Dr. Haltzel said. "I learned that Dr. Kramer would be in the United States in August, so I invited him to come

Private Funds Emphasized The need for private funds for faculty support was emphasized by Longwood President Janet Greenwood at a meeting November 19 of the Longwood College Foundation Board of Directors. This support, she said, must include funds for faculty salaries, merit increases, and faculty development. President Greenwood also stressed the need for student scholarships to "fill the gap" between rising costs and decreasing financial aid. The third priority for the immediate future, she said, is "to continue to examine approaches" for the development of the Longwood Fine Arts Center. One of the possibilities under consideration is the conversion of the old Prince Edward County High School building, now owned by the Foundation, into a fine arts center. Reports to the Foundation

directors from Donald L. Lemish, Longwood's Vice President for Institutional Advancement, indicated that total private support to the college in fiscal year 1981-82 reached a record $670,655. Included in this amount was more than $450,000 from the Nellie Ward Nance testamentary trust. Income from this trust will provide some 35 scholarships annually of approximately $1,200 each. Alumni giving during the past fiscal year also set a new record, with gifts received from 27.4 percent of all alumni solicited. "This is a great step forward in our five-year goal to reach 30 percent alumni participation in the annual fund," Lemish said. "In 198041, just over 20 percent of Longwood alumni made contributions. This past fiscal year we solicited 11,559 alumni and received 3,168 contributions totaling $62,039. "Equally encouraging was the

better than 86 percent donor participation of all Longwood faculty and staff," Lemish said. Non-alumni donors, including parents, contributed $65,298 in 1981-82. Ninety-one gifts were matched by corporations for a total of $5,175. Total annual fund giving to Longwood in 1981-82 ($193,036) was up 13.2 percent, or $22,549 more than the previous fiscal year. The Foundation directors approved a policy and guidelines on fund raising and guidelines on Foundation funds expenditures. At a dinner Friday evening, six former directors were recognized for their service to the Longwood Foundation. Those honored were: Mrs. Raymond M. Brown, Jr. of Hampton; Frank B. Hurt of Ferrum; William H. King of Burkeville; George R. Bristol of Roanoke (former director and executive secretary); Andre Nielsen of Richmond; and James B. Bourne, Jr. of Sandston.

to Longwood for a two-day visit." On the Longwood campus, Dr. Kramer talked with President Greenwood, Dr. Haltzel, George Stonikinis (Head of the Social Work department), Dr. Geoffrey Orth (Assistant Professor of German), and other faculty members and students. "The whole thing just seemed to click," Stonikinis said. "Dr. Kramer is particularly interested in the way we are redefining the human services, and the ways that high technology can enhance the quality of living." Since the partnership has become reality, Stonikinis has been invited to write an essay on Longwood's social work program and the use of computerized evaluation in social work education. His paper, along with articles by Dr. Kramer and contributors from Sweden, Norway, England, France, and India, will be included in a book on international problems in social work education. Dr. Haltzel has been invited to lecture at the F.H.S.S. as soon as a mutually agreeable schedule can be worked out. Other faculty and staff exchanges are being considered. Both Stonikinis and Dr. Orth are looking forward to implementing a student exchange program between the two colleges. "We hope to bring some F.H.S.S. students to Longwood to spend perhaps a semester," Orth said. "This will give them exposure to the social work profession in America, and they could assist our language studies as tutors or instructional assistants in the language labs." Longwood students might perform the same functions and receive the same benefits by spending a semester at the

F.H.S.S. "The presence of exchange students on the two campuses will enrich student diversity and help establish a cosmopolitan perspective," Stonikinis said. A major goal in planning the student exchanges is "to make them affordable," Orth said. The partnership also provides opportunities for "consultative exchanges" in a number of learning areas, as well as the exchange of information on professional social work practice and training, curriculum and instructional design approaches, and internship processes and models. Longwood officials point out that West Germany and the U.S. share a number of societal problems and challenges, including unemployment, a growing geriatric population, relations among ethnic groups, and computer-based economic systems. These similarities between the two countries "offer a unique opportunity for interchange." The F.H.S.S. has a partnership arrangement with one other American university, the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and with universities in England, Northern Ireland, France, and Turkey. Dr. Haltzel hopes that this first partnership between I^ongwood and a foreign university will "lead the way to similar arrangements with other universities in Europe." President Greenwood made some initial contacts with institutions in France and Spain during her visits there last month. "It's all part of what we are trying to develop," Dr. Haltzel said, "and that's the internationalization of longwood College."

At 10:00 o'clock on November 10, a fifty-six hour name reading vigil began in a small chapel at the Washington Cathedral. It was a dreary Wednesday with cold, freezing rain and as the list of the dead or missing was read the Vietnam Memorial began filling with name seekers and veterans, their eyes roaming the wailing wall for friends, relatives or comrades. It was in all respects a somber occasion. From the black monument sunk below the ground, like a vast marked grave, to the veterans, crippled and whole, scanning the desolate scene — some with a feeling of relief at final official recognition, others bitter at the political metaphor which seemed to emanate from Maya Ying Lin's design: a national scar — they fought for nothing. UPI captured the moment perfectly in a black and white photograph of Fred Strother, a 1966 Marine in Vietnam. His amputated leg, two crutches and wide brimmed hat poised above the camera parallel to the wall and in the background a mother's bowed figure veiled in black, told better than any threnody could have, the cost of this war — death. And that is how it should be. A simple moment — sans movement — that equates war with the only thing it can truly represent — death. Of course, there are those who would try to fix it, who would try to eradicate Vietnam, or America's attitude towards Vietnam — the 'Vietnam Syndrome,' as it were — from the quagmire of guilt and remorse over feelings that the veterans have died for nothing or worse, for an unjust cause — which they did. But this takes nothing away from the sacrifice the veterans made for what they perceived as duties. What does take away from the solemnity and final honesty of the occasion are the attempts to distort the truth. Mr. Reagan managed to pervert the ceremonies by one of his usual prevarications: "These are men who died for freedom just as surely as any men who fought for this country . . . The tragedy was they were asked to fight and die for a cause that their

country was unwilling to win." And later at noon on the last of the four-day salute, U.S. F-4 jets and four combat helicopters flew over a startled audience and streamed onward above Indepencence Avenue — leaving a memorial statement in their vapor trails - might makes right. The tragedy of Vietnam was not that it was an error in judgment, or a cause the U.S. felt unwilling to win. It was a political, social and moral evil for which the U.S. bears full responsibility. The 'Vietnam Syndrome, as political theorists like to refer to it, is the American people's realization that, yes, it was unjustifiable and, yes, no country, not even saintly U.S.A. has any right to impose its will on another sovereign nation — which is what happened in Vietnam. Joseph Gatins served in Vietnam from May 1969 to April 1970. His candid statements concerning the monument and what was affirmed by it, should, I think, remain alive in our memories individually and as a nation. — We affirmed that we went when called, while the majority of our contemporaries honored their consciences in different, escape or solemn protest. — We affirmed that secret shame that we once felt furtively relieved when those other guys, not us, got shot full of holes. — We affirmed too, that we had once grooved on the awesome firepower of a howitzer and fragmentation grenades and flechette rounds and rumbling B52 raids that sowed gore countrywide • — We affirmed that we had often cheated death by glorifying it — taken with defiant glee, thousands of snapshots of the mangled corpses that we left behind in the tree lines, the rice paddies and bomb craters. — We came here and poignantly affirmed the past. It is not a matter of opening an old wound, but rather, cleansing it of sophistry and hypocrisy and letting the scar remain, unbandaged with lies and distortions. We can read in it our own failings and our need for reform.

(EXHIBIT AND SALE)

Your Turn As the elevator opens on the first floor, I see a young man passionately embracing the favors of a very generous young lady, finalizing the whole event with a rather lengthy meeting of the lips. "Excuse me," I reply. But why must I excuse myself? I immediately feel like an intruder, even a voyeur. After all, it was not by my choice that I became subjected to this public display of affection. PDA, as it is called, eradicates the position

that some things are private. It maintains that this open display of affection and even sexual desire is a spectator's sport. I have no desire to view the sexual preferences between two people during lunch, before dinner, and after class. Besides, at 8 a.m. who has that kind of energy? Obviously some people possess this energy in mass quantities. And PDA at Ixmgwood runs the gamut. It seems that any act, from a friendly embrace to hand-

holding to a sweet peck on the cheek, would suffice within the confines of public view. This however is not the case in point. As Dr. Sprague reflects, "it used to be pigeons on the grass, alas! but now it's not pigeons anymore!" Whatever sexual activities that people decide to indulge in is their own business. I just wish they wouldn't make it mine too. Sharon Barton

••••••••* Mr. Joe Johnson: As a fellow member of the "press," I find your recent article "Running Scared" a prime example of irresponsible journalism and unnecessary media hype. Not only were the events described old news, but by being concerned with one individual's account, you have

presented a distorted view of overall campus behavior and attitudes. In addition, no other campus club has been given this kind of extensive coverage — that in itself seems rather biased. I don't know if your intention was to solve a problem or cause one, but I do hope the

unwarranted controversy you have created compensates you in some manner for your lack of professionalism. Thank goodness you are writing for a campus paper and, hopefully, will eventually learn to keep your editorials on the proper page. N. Filer I^dford

*********

Last week's front-page article, based on an interview with a male homosexual student, could be interpreted to mean that the administration is "100 percent supportive" of a gay movement on campus. Such an interpretation would be incorrect. The student interviewed in the article had met earlier with President Greenwood, the Vice President for Student Affairs, and me. At the meeting, the student made one request. He wanted us to print an item in the "Campus Bulletin" announcing the date and time for a meeting of gay students. We indicated that we would print the item only if his

name appeared with it, since that is the policy for all announcements. He did not want his name used; we therefore refused to carry the announcement. He then asked about forming an organization, and we indicated that he had the legal right to do so, but that he had to follow the procedures, rules, and regulations that applied to the formation of any campus organization. We did not encourage him to start a group; we informed him of his legal right to do so. This should not be interpreted as "being supportive." The article also quotes him as

saying that such an organization "could pull in as many as 325 participants or about 13 percent of I,ongwood'spopulation." When we met with the student, we specifically asked him how many homosexuals he thought were at longwood. He replied that he knew of only three or four, but assumed there were more. We do not know how he arrived at the 325 figure a day later. While there are many other disturbing aspects to the article, I especially wanted to clarify these misleading statements. H. Donald Winkler Director of Public Affairs I>ongwood College

EDITOR'S NOTE: Mr. Winkler did not read closely, apparently. Walt was quoted as saying the the Administration was "100 percent supportive" in helping with the harrassment incidents, as indeed those involved were. The actual quote in reference to the Administrative support for the formation of L.D.G.S. is that those approached "seemed supportive of the idea." Mr. Winkler was not one of those approached; Walt went to him only in regards to the Campus Bulletin notice. *********

administrator I've spoken with has disputed the 13-16 per cent estimate, and some students and faculty say it should be higher. Hence the estimate of over 300 Gays here. L.D.G.S. has been granted use of L.C. Box 1101, since most Gays don't want to be publicly known and a shared box may risk a member's privacy being violated.

To Walt, If you ever read the Bible, the source of the basic tenets of Christianity, you would know that homosexuality is a sin. What do you think Sodom and Gomorrah was all about? So don't use the grace of Jesus Christ as a rationalization for your sin but

rather repent and ask to be of His fold. "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God! Do not be deceived! Neither the sexually immoral nor idolators nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual

offenders nor thieves nor thegreedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." I Corinthians 6:9 Sincerely, Betty Brogan

Lancers Win McDonalds Classic Led by tournament MVP Joe Remar (ELIZABETH, NJ), Longwood's men's basketball team defeated Clarion State 71-63 Friday and Mansfield State 70-65 Saturday to win the McDonald's Classic title in Mansfield, Pennsylvania. Remar, who scored 27 points in the title game and helped Longwood come from behind, has now scored 1,053 points in his four-year career, making the 6-1 senior the top Lancer point producer of all time. Remar surpassed All-American Kenny Ford's three-year total of 1,040 with his performance Saturday night. The 2-01.ancers have no time to celebrate their tournament title. Coming up Tuesday night is a contest with highly regarded Virginia Union in Richmond. The

Wrestlers Split Two The lancer grapplers defeated Newport News Apprentice 34-14 and lost to VMI 38-8 Wednesday at lancer Hall to give the team a 1-1 record. Although the lancers suffered a big loss to a tough Koydet squad, Coach Steve Nelson was not disappointed with the performance. "I was fairly pleased with our performance, but we still need to be more aggressive explained Nelson. "We need someone to step forward and wrestle aggressively and fire the team up." Individually, Longwood had some shining performances by senior Joe Bass (Alexandria), junior David Dodd (Highland Springs) and sophomore Dana Dunlap (Fairfax). Bass, who wrestled at the 180 class, pinned his first opponent from Newport News in 54 seconds and won a 14-2

decision over Tomas Amador of VMI. Dodd, who won Longwood's other match against VMI, defeated his Keydet opponent 6-2 in the 161 weight class. Dunlap, who wrestled in the 170 weight class, was injured in his pin against Newport News, but still managed a gallant performance in a 6-2 loss to VMI.

Longwood trailed Mansfield state 61-58 with 3:22 to go in Saturday's McDonald's Classic title game. Then Jerome (THE COBRA) Kersey (CLARKSVILLE), Ron Orr (ELIZABETH, NJ) and Remar took over. After Kersey and Orr scored inside to put Longwood on top 6261, Remar canned six of six free throw attempts in the final 1:22 to ice the triumph for Longwood. Three times Remar went to the line with one-and-one attempts and three times he converted both ends. In a Remar-kable performance, the senior guard scored 27 points, hitting 10 of 18 shots from the floor and seven of 10 at the line. He added four assists and four steals for good measure. The performance netted Longwood's all-time leading scorer the MVP trophy for the tournament and a spot on the all-tournament team. Joining Remar on the alltourney squad were Kersey who had 19 rebounds and 38 points in the two games. Also contributing to the victory was guard Mike Testa (DAMASCUS, MD) who had a key steal to set up Remar's second one-and-one attempt. Testa had eight steals in the two games. Longwood's assist leader in the tournament was surprisingly 6-7 forward John Weber (PRINCE FREDERICK, MD) who handed out 11 assists in the tournament. Next week the lancers will face another tough slate of games with a date at Division I VMI Tuesday, a home contest with Division III power Otterbein Thursday (December 2) and another home tilt with always tough Radford Saturday (December 4).

SPORTS Holmes Sparks Comeback Win Sophomore Florence Holmes (King George) scored eight of her team-high nine points in a sixminute stretch at the beginning of the second half, sparking Longwood's women's basketball team to a come-from-behind 5041 victory over Maryland Eastern Shore Saturday afternoon. Trailing 26-21 at halftime, Longwood came out pressing in the second half. Forcing turnover after turnover, the Lady Lancers went on a 15-2 tear, taking a 36-28 lead. The visiting Lady Hawks were never able to recover. Coach Jane Miller's team will take its 1-0 record into the Thanksgiving holidays. The Lady Lancers don't play again until Tuesday, November 30, when they visit Christopher-Newport. Longwood's next home tilt will be December 10 when Lynchburg visits.
