ROTC Endures FLX Challenge By LIZ RUSSELL "High speed, hard core!" These exclamations described the spirit of the Army ROTC at Longwood College. University of Richmond, and Virginia Commonwealth University. The Army ROTC Department went to Fort AP. Hill on Friday, March 3 through Sunday, April 1. for a field leadership exercise, otherwise known as FLX. We arrived at Fort A.P. Hill on Friday at 1730 hours (5:30 p.m.), set up camp, and drew our MRE's (meals ready to eat) which seemed like they were made in the 1940s. That night we learned how to prepare a Swiss seat which we would later use during rappelling. On Saturday, the military science freshmen and sophomores (MSI and MSII's) went out to the survival course which included different safety and survival training sessions such as: fire safety, food and water survival, shelter, rope bridges, knots, and terrain features. That afternoon we rappelled off the 40-foot tower and helicopter skid which proved to be fun and exciting,

Wells Urges Environmental Awareness By SHERRY GATEWOOD Dr. Wells, one of our biology professors, gave a lecture Wednesday night about the harmful effects of pesticides and other synthetic chemicals on our nation's wildlife. In 1958. a wide variety of pesticides and herbicide chemicals came on the market and these were hailed as a cureall for common pests. Rachel Carson, a prominent author of the time, became concerned about the harmful effects of these substances when she received a distressing letter from a friend. Carson researched the issue and wrote a book entitled Silent Spring which explained what these pesticides were doing to our environment. Her book created a huge fervor and a backlash of governmental criticism. Studies were conducted nationwide which discounted her findings and companies continued their production of DDT and chloronated hydrocarbons. After years of use. it was discovered that these compounds caused birth defects, cancer, and even death in humans. Insects quickly became immune to these substances
and therefore production of new ones increased. New mutations of pests spread and the problem escalated. In 1955, pesticide sprayings were being conducted in Michigan and massive amounts of dead robins soon began appearing. For three years no-one understood what was causing these mysterious deaths until someone connected the two events. A barrage of laws have since been passed with the help of the Environmental Protection Agency to help control dangerous pesticides and herbicides. Unfortunately, these have mostly been ineffective. With each passing year, the public's awareness of environmental hazards becomes heightened. Hopefully the future will bring a more environmentally safe world for animals as well as humans.

Letters to the Editor Editor Communication is a vital aspect of life and Longwood is lacking this aspect. Longwood emphasizes to the students to be more informed of the world around us, but how can we be informed If they never tell us anything? It's not Just the students who are not Informed, but also the faculty and staff. Also the faculty and staff get notices at the last : minute. Some examples of noncommunication are not being told about the phone system until we got back from Christmas break. We would not have known about the phone codes unless we went to the front desk and saw the information. Also not being told how and/or when the phone bills were being issued and only having a week to pay the phone bill. Telecommunications Center should realize that college students do not always have the money ready in a week, especially when some of us are being paid by Longwood. This brings me to another example of noncommunications; pay checks. Sometimes the pay periods are changed and students are not notified. For example, the week before spring break. I had to call payroll to find out that we would receive our
paychecks that Friday (March 9) instead of March 15. I Informed others who were unaware of the change. A few other things that the students were not told of until the last minute are: — the hot water pipe break — dining hall changing the time of opening doors on special occasions — saving the halls for next year — graduation starting time — being short of credits to graduate — construction of Grainger, staff and students not knowing about room changes — how our money is being spent I don't know about my fellow classmates but lack of communication bothers me especially when Longwood stresses students to communicate when Longwood stresses students to communicate when the college Itself does not. I feel that Longwood needs to work with the students on better communicating with them. I was Just wondering If anybody else (faculty, staff and students) were bothered by tills?

Chiffon is Tax Deductible By JIM WOOD My friend Paul Augen attended the Miss Longwood Pageant Saturday last; with him went a seersucker suit and a pint of Pepe Lopez. The affair lasted longer than the tequila and by the time Miss Louisiana had played her banjo, old Paul was feeling kind of strange. The big moment rolled around, but all my friend could worry about was the heavy perfume of what smelled to be a whole florist's shop. Mental drumroll, tah-dahl Miss Longwood! Cameras flash, girls cry. and amidst the cheerful cacophony a lone splat is lost. The new Miss Longwood is none other than Amy Lynn Church. A theater major. Miss Church has Intimated

"Aside from wretching up tequila", said Paul. "I thoroughly enjoyed the pageant." "There she is ...

Blood Drive a Success By DENISE DAUBENSPECK The Blood Drive, sponsored by Gelst. was held March 22 and 23. in the Red. White, and Green room of the Student Union. The organization set its goal for 100 units. They had 190 people sign-up to give blood. Unfortunately, the requirement for measle boosters prevented some donors from giving. The event was sponsored by Gelst. but other organizations donated their time and services. Among them were the Ambassadors, Sigma Kappa, TKE. Delta Sigma Phi, Apo, Psi Chi and the Student Union. In order for persons to give blood, they must follow a
specific procedure. First, they must be registered. During the procedure the prospective donor is given a brochure published by the American Red Cross detailing who shouldn't give blood and points for the patients' safety. After reading the brochure, their temperature is taken and they pass to the medical history part of the process. The next step is the hemoglobin test. If the donor passes all the tests, they are allowed to give blood. After donating, the donor is required to drink an extra four glasses of non-alcoholic liquids. The entire process takes approximately forty-five minutes.

College Tuition Rise Dupury Will Slow in 90s Wright Named Editor Speaks on Of The Virginian "Women Helping Women"
Even as schools around the contry announce hefty new tuition hikes for next year, tuition won't rise as fast during the rest of the 1990s as It did the past decade, a new study predicts. "There are many favorable things happening all at once" to keep tuition Increases from rising sharply, said economist Carol Frances. Frances cited slight Increases In state appropriations for public campuses and in public support for financial aid. In addition, most institutions have almost finished raising their faculty members' salaries to levels that are competitive with private Industry. "The rate In year-to-year change (in tuition) peaked In the 1980s." Frances said. "If you look back, the slowdown in state funding in the early 80s is when tuition increased so rapidly.'' Frances, who conducted the study for the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges, the American Association of University Professors and the
Association of Urban Universities, predicts yearly tuition increases of about 7 percent during the next few years. Tuition hikes averaged 12 percent annually in the early 80s and have dropped to about 8 percent in the last three years, she reports. Even so. while many campuses boast their tuition hikes for the 1990-91 year are the lowest in 15 years, students at most schools can still say they pay a lot more for college than their predecessors. For example, students at Loyola University In New Orleans will pay 216 percent more in 1990-91 than did students who attended In 1983-84. Similarly, students who attended Duke University in 1979 paid $4,230 annually, compared to $12,800 for the 1989-91 year. Other schools that have announced tuition increases for the next academic year include the universities of Tennessee, New Mexico and Miami. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Syracuse. Stanford. Wesleyan, Pacific Lutheran and West Virginia universities, to name a few.

FLX Challenge Continued From Page 1 Dressed In total camouflage, the Juniors (MSII's) performed a deliberate ambush against the senior aggressors (MSIV's). They achieved a link-up which is the terminology for two units making contact and meeting in the woods without prior planning. The Juniors established a patrol base, assaulted a bunker Sunday morning, and walked 4000 meters of tackling (area of training). Captain Carson quoted."I spent Saturday. Saturday night, and Sunday with the Juniors as the Cadre Evaluator. Despite the elements they did an outstanding Job of performing their
tactical missions." The seniors played the enemy against the Juniors who will be the cadets going to Camp All-American at Fort Bragg. The senior cadets, led by Greg Bowman, set up four bunkers on Saturday and manned them throughout the nights in hopes of an opposing Junior force. All in all. we came back tired, hungry, and damp, but the experience was well-worth the fun.

By DENISE DAUBENSPECK Laura Dupury. Domestic Assistant Attorney, presented the lecture 'Woman Helping Woman" on March 19. in Bedford Auditorium. She discussed the changing role of women in society, the types of women she works with, and programs established for these women. Dupury pointed out that society has chosen to be male dominated, and women are expected to be masculine and analytic in order to succeed. She expressed to outgrow their feminity, but is opti mistic that this stereotype will die out. She commented that as women gain a larger voice In society and government, things will change. One spe clfic piece of advice she gives her listeners is to never apologize for the part that Is compassionate, emotional, and caring. Instead use your emotions and a tool for success. As a Domestic Assistant Attorney she works with the Legal Aid department. Her clients mainly consist of the poor and abused. In addition to being an attorney she is on the Board of DAY (a program established to help needy women. This program deals with victims of discriminating practices and domestic violence. Carlys Taylor. Executive Director of DAY. and Dupury offer the victims public assistance for a short period of time while the victim decides what to do. The program tries to show women that they are respected for facing their problems and not running away. James Scott, a coach in the Prince Edward School system, has helped this program by donating his time and experience In a summer program for the victims young boys. He got the kids Involved in sports and had long discussions with them. The next step is to set up programs for young girls.

Features Music Review: "The Edge Of Rock" If you're a big fan of progress or alternative music, but you're not really sure which recording artists that you really want to plunk down your hard-earned cash for. then check this disc out thoroughly. The Edge of Rock has ten of the better, although not well known, artists making the kind of music you want to listen to. This disc has Camper Van Beethoven, Santa Cruz. California's favorite sons (and daughter); newcomer Luclnda Williams; the bizarre but palatable Dinosaur Jr.: Winter Hours; quirky and quixotic Close Lobsters from Scotland; Syd Straw, formerly of Golden Palomino's fame; Mary's Danish, the band, not the
pastry; the Meat Puppets; Boston's sarcastic, pessimistic and sometimes nihilistic Lemon Heads; and finally Wire. The Edge of Rock is an excellent menu for those of you who are already well aware of the artists listed above, or are new to the entire genre of progressive/alternative music. The tracks that compose this disc are of good choice and enjoyable to listen to. The sound quality is not that of what you would find on a complete digital recording, but the sound engineers did a good Job with the original studio tapes. Camper Van Beethoven's latest single, "Pictures of Matchstlck Men" is the
Longwood's Youngest Sophomore I am not smarter than anyone else, I Just learn faster than most people." says thirteen year old Michael Crawley. Michael is finishing up his fourth semester here at Longwood. For now his major is undeclared, but he Is leaning toward chemistry. He is a commuter student who lives right outside of Farmville. In three years. Michael went through elementary school. He took kindergarten and first grade In one year. second and third the next year and so on. In the sixth grade he moved to Maryland and then back to Farmville, and in the process never finished sixth grade. Then he enrolled in Prospect Christ ain Academy and finished sixth. seventh, eighth grade. As for high school he took it through the mail. He would get the books and materials in the mall and then he would send the test back. It was harder this way he says, because there were no teachers to help or to answer his questions. When Michael attended his first year at Longwood. he was still taking high school courses through the mail. College classes were a little
harder than he had expected. For example he never had to write research papers, so when he had to write papers for English he found it a lot harder. But having the professors here to answer questions and help with problems Is a definite plus, he says. Also, he was not sure how professors would treat him, but they treat him like any other student. Since he Is a fast learner, he feels like he missed out on his childhood, but It has given him the chance to get ahead in degrees and in working world. He says he has never been discouraged, but If he had to do it all over, he would take it a little slower. After graduating from Longwood Michael plans to work for Dow laboratories. When he Is not in school he works at the campus computer lab or at a doctor's office. Since he Is part-time he spends a lot of time in the commuter lounge. He says that the commuter association and the other commuters have all been very accepting and that he has made some good friends since coming to Longwood.

opening cut. With Us haunting overture of violins and steady percussion, along with a superb layer of guitar and bass, draws you into the song and makes you feel like turning It real loud and repeating it several times. Another outstanding track on the compilation is the Cure song "Just Like Heaven" as Interpreted by Dinosaur Jr. The texture of the guitar work is rather pleasant and turns a danceable tune into a song of sorts in which to vent your rage. Still. I like It. Syd Straw's contribution, "Future 40's" features R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe on backing vocals. This song is an aural delight, with Stipes' deep voice with a trace of the incomprehensible facet that
makes Stipe sound the way that he does, complementing Straw's wavy soprano, that often breaks Into a falsetto that could break your beer mug. The musical accompaniment Is staggering, being very melodic and euphonic. "Future 40's" would probably be my favorite track on this disc if It weren't for the contribution by the Lemon Heads. Covering the song that Suzanne Vega had a Top 40 hit with a couple of years ago. "Luka." Starting off with cacophonlc guitar licks, the Lemon Heads stage an excellent cover disregarding the harmonics of Suzanne Vega, by attacking the song with a ferocious attitude of electric guitars turned up real loud. I played this for a friend and he
couldn't believe how much better this version was than the original. Nuff said. The last track Is "In Vivo" by the British band Wire. A very jumpy and catchy tune that is highly danceable. it's about, I think, a revolution that begins with an "In vitro in vtvo." I've no idea what the hell that means, but it must mean something. Then again. maybe it doesn't. The disc Is good, but its occasional crackle and hiss disturbed me somewhat. I give the disc a three stars out five for the great diversity of the artists and the exposure that they'll hopefully receive.
