ROTUNDA

Alcohol Policy Altered In Cafe By Jeffrey Sorensen Rotunda Staff Ihere was a standing ovation and thunderous applause inspired by a perversion of a Bob Marley classic on Ihursday, February 24, in the Lancer Cafe. Vibrantly from the PA speakers came the lines of "I shot the ABC man" as a slighUy rebellious response from the audience. The chants were an answer to the actions of officials from the Alcohol Beverage Commission that evening. The situation developed when ABC officials came into the lancer Cafe to inspect the proceedings. The officials found one of the performers, who was underage, in possession of alcohol. The performer, who was not carrying identification, was taken out of the Cafe and brought to the ABC vehicle. There the performer was photographed and issued a summons, officially booked for the violation. This was the only incident in the Cafe that evening. Such an event sparked rumors dial

MARCH 9, 1994

alcohol would be banned in the Cafe, but these were unsubstantiated and quickly cleared up. According to Angela 1'llinglon. the manager of the Cafe, alcohol will still be served on Tuesday and Thursday evenings with only two changes. The first will be that two forms of identification will be needed to get into the Cafe as opposed to only one as before. The other change is that there will be no more live entertainment during those evenings when alcohol is served. The only entertainment that will be offered on Tuesday and Ihursday evenings will be television and radio broadcasts. Several WI.CX bo;tfd members met the following day to discuss two concerns that came about because of the incident. The first was whether or not the Motion could be held accountable for die actions of one of the performers. One board member was informed over the phone by Mary Thornton.

ARA Dining Services Director, that WLCX will not be held responsible for die event since die incident look place after the performance of the individual involved. "I'm glad that we are clear of the event. I knew we weren't responsible, nor would I want any blame put on the Cafe, but it's good to know that this is all behind us," said Philippe lirnewcin from WI.CX. The second concern the Board had was how these events would affect Bandfest '94. The Board worried dial the new policy might move into other areas, but Dave Edwards, die Business Manager for the station and chief Organizer of Bandfest '94, said that the incident should not interfere with the use of the ABC rooms during Bandfest. Edwards' regret was that it might be difficult to sponsor performances that would draw audiences to the Cafe now that the new policy is in effect

Edelmann Traces Role Of

Lancers Clip Eagles Women To Adam And Eve

76-63 In NCAA's By Hoke Currie Led by a near-flawless offensive performance from senior center Adam Huffman, Longwood's men's basketball team cashed in its first-ever NCAA Division II playoff opportunity Tuesday night with a 76-63 triumph over visiUng Carson-Newman College in front of a crowd estimated at over 1,500 in lancer Hall. The victory, Longwood's 20th straight, sends the lancers (23-4) to Fayetteville, N.C. for a Friday night, 7:00 date with CIAA power Norfolk State (25-5 and ranked 12lh in Division II) in the NCAA II South Atlantic Regional Tournament In the second game Friday night at the Cumberland County Civic Center, second ranked Virginia Union (25-2) will take on Elizabeth Cily Stale (21-7), an 88-80 winner over Mars Hill Tuesday night. The winner of the South Atlantic Regional tournament will advance to Springfield, Mass., along with seven other regional winners, for the final phase of the 1994 National Collegiate Division II Men's Basketball Championship - the Elite Eight Huffman Perfect From The Hour Huffman scored a game-high 19 points, hitting 8 of 8 field goal attempts and pulled down six rebounds. Ihe 6-7 ui-captain scored eight firsthalf points when Longwood took the

lead for good. I le scored six points in a four-and-a-half minute stretch as Longwood went ahead 23-19 with4:44 left in the half. Reserve guard DeVonne Johnson kept things going, scoring all seven of his points in the final 2:25. Johnson's dramatic three-pointerasecondor two before half time gave the I .ancers a 31 24 edge at the break. Longwood was never able to pull away from CarsonNewman, but the 16-14 EagMU were unable to come closer than four points die rest of the way. Back time C-N pulled within striking distance, Longwood came up with a big play. Balance was again a key for the lancers as it has been all season. In addition to the exploits of Huffman and Johnson, Malt Watkins scored 13 points and grabbed five rebounds. Watkins hit a BIG threepointer early in the second half. He scored well throughout the game despite tough defense by die Eagles. Senior guard Michael Druitt had 11 points, a team-high eight rebounds, six assists, three steals and no turnovers in a fine all-around performance Charles (Soup) Brown, a captain along with Druitt and Huffman, finished with 11 points and seven assists Ihe 6-3 guard had success driving inside, and either scoring or dishing off to Huffman.

Freshman Melvin Bellamy got the lancers and the fans pumped up in (he Bill half widi a slam-dunk follow of a Longwood missed field goal. Bellamy also stuffed Eagle scoring leader Ray RuUedge in the second half to fire up the home crowd. A talent who will be a force in the future, Bellamy finished with eight points and seven rebounds in just 14:46 on the court. RuUedge, a 6-4 junior, scored just three points in the first half as foul difficulties limited his playing time to 10:26. A fine shooter in the lane area, he came back to score 12 points in the second half and finish with 15. Carson-Newman hit just 22 of 49 shots (44.9 percent) while I .ongwood was m;iking 28-53 (52.8 percent).

A Ihkfc snake spirals the naked body of Cindy Crawford. A man tells a woman, "nice apples!" and she says, "big leaf!" These are modem magazine advertisements based on the Christian creation metaphor. Karen Iulelmann, Assistant Professor in the School of Arts at Virginia Commonwealth I (diversity, addressed the role that the creation myth plays in our perception of women on Monday. March 7 in Bedford Auditorium. 'Ihere are a few interpretations of the Garden of Eden in the Book of Genesis. One contends that God created man and woman in his image. Ihe more common interpretation is that woman was created from the rib of Adam, thus making her the weaker of the two. Due to die early rabbis' choice to quote the second story, according to lidclmann. it has shaped the perception of women throughout the course of history. Eve. who bit the forbidden apple, is often considered a dangerous temptress. "It's an inescapable legacy," says Edelmann. "I don't know if there was a testosterone storm, or what," she says with a laugh. The presentation included a slide

show, complete with art work from thousands of years ago to the present Ihe image of Adam is not depicted as frequently as live: he is almost never alone. Ihe expressions on the various Eves' faces change from shy and hesit;uit in the earlier works to bold and seductive in more modem pieces. A recurring image in the art is the figure of Eve being mutilated or trampled on by Mary. Mary is usually clothed and domineering, while Eve appears weak and nude. Ihe creation story was not always considered a tale of evil. At first the tale represented triumph ;uid freedom to the early Christians. It was not until 313 AD when the first Christian Emperor Consiaiiiinc named Christianity as the official religion of Rome mat women and evil were paired. I-delmann pointed out that 35,000 years prior to Genesis, a matriarchal culture existed. Women were valued as goddesses, hence terms such as mother earth. Snakes were once considered symbols of fertility and wisdom, and women were often portrayed with snakes in art One Neolithic figure shows a woman's body with a snake's head, and an early Egyptian figure depicts a woman's head on a snake's body. Other symbols were

included with women in art, such as the moon and sun. Following the Dark Ages, Eve was connected with death. Midwifery was against the law, and women were considered imperfect animals, while witchcraft was believed to stem from carnal lust. Three to nine million women, assumed to be witches, were burned. With the arrival of the Industrial Revolution and the printing press, the images of women were equaled with temptation and evil. The powers of Darwin, Jung, and Freud contributed to the assumption that women were inferior. Within popular culture, Eve is depicted as evil, while Adam is assumed to have been violated. Edelmann asked hundreds of children to draw or describe their perceptions of Adam and Eve. The most common response reflected the typical image presented by die media: Five is bad, and Adam is a victim. "Ten-year old children think it's a disobedience story... Our artists have become priests of commercial culture," says Edelmann. Edelmann's presentation was part of The Women 'i History Month Series.

TKE Speaker Motivates By Heidi Hurt Rotunda stall Motivation is the key to success Ask T. J. Schmitz and he will tell you the same thing. Schmit/ is the Executive Vice President of International Headquarters of the I'au Kappa Epsilon iralcrnity.. Schmit/ came to Eongwood to give a speech on how to motivate organizations. He had many suggestions to help encourage and involve members of all types of organizations. A few of his main ideas had hidden incentives that would motivate members. He suggested dial meetings should only last an hour and a half, at the most. When meetings last a long

time, members become restless. Also, they become more reluctant to come to future meetings. Schmit/ also suggested that organization! gel rid of fines and instead give the members motivation to come to activities and be involved. Schmit/ also talked about the different types of people diat an active in all organizations, 'lhese types include the backbones, jawbones, knucklebones and wishbones. Backbones aie leaden dial replace diemselves when they go out of ol lice by someone who has higher or equal qualities as themselves I tie- jawbones an people who talk about

change but do nothing to help. The knucklebones knock the leaders while the wishbones always wish for things thii are unrealistic and would never happen. Schmitz suggested that all members should be like the backbones Ihere were many positive comments that were received from members of the audience. "I thought dial he was an excellent speaker. Not only was he very energetic, but also ex tremely funny," said Jeff Clements Jim Monihan agreed by saying. "He was very l;ud back which was re fleeted in die way that he spoke He was very comfortable in Iront ol tin audience."

Feminism Calls For Equality

Despite the stereotypes./fm/ni.vrn simply refers to the advocacy of creating equality between the sexes. How did the perception become so distorted'.' When describing what feminism is, most people mention butch,lesbian, angry, irrational, or male-basher. One of the purposes of Women's History Month is to get rid of these trite misconceptions and let people know what feminism really The Rotunda welcomes letters and opinion pieces from all members of the longwood College community on issues of public interest. Submissions means. Longwood is doing a superb job during March; at least seventeen events are scheduled must be typewritten, primed, or on a Macintosh compatible disk composed of 600 words or less, and must include the writers name, address, and pertaining to women's history. There is a new Women's Studies minor offered as well. But it's telephone number. This information is for verification purposes only.

This movement calls for permanent change—it's not just students,faculty, staff, or administration of Longwood College. Signed pieces a whimsical fad.

The purpose of this page is to provide an open forum for public discussion of issues, events, organizations, or persons. of the past, we need to act in the now, especially with the future in mind. One docs not have to be engulfed by flames to believe in feminism. It's archaic to assume women are inferior. Equality is the core of the definition, and those that subscribe to that belief, men and women, have places in the feminist movement.

Line Cutting Childish

All opinions expressed in unsigned editorials represents the majority opinion of the editorial board.

^SL

Editor, The Rotunda: I am having trouble understanding why certain groups of people collectively cut in front of other people in the dining hall lines. Sometimes it's a group of pledges or something, and other limes it's just rude individuals. It's funny to stare at them after they cut you. They look sort of emb;irrassed. It's more rewarding to stare than to tell them how childish they are. Staring is childish, too, so that's why I'm making a formal complaint. Do we really need cafeteria monitors to watch the students, sending the

disobedient ones to the back of the line? This problem includes the beverage line, too. It'sclear mat there are many thirsty people in line, but there are (hose who wait/ to the front, too impatient to wait their (urns, and not smart enough to realize Unit Uiey are only adding lo the problem. The dining hall is p<x>rly constructed (who thought of putting the drink area in front of the stairs?), but cutting only makes people angry. Chris Johnson

Women's Soccer Set To Make Move By Eric Mill Rotunda Staff

It looks as if Longwood is going to have a new varsity sport on it s hands when the student body returns in the fall. Women's soccer is making a very strong case for itself in the eyes of the Athletic Department. Interim Athletic Director Emily Harsh is excited about the opportunity for another women's sport to be added. "The team has gone through all the proper channels in order to gain varsity status, and at this point, all looks very promising. All the criteria has been met. so the ultimate decision rests in the hands of the Intercollegiate Athletic Council, and from there it will go on to the higher administration", said Harsh. The last women's sport to be added was in 1981 when softball was introduced as a women's sport, while volleyball, riding, and gymnastics have all fallen by the wayside on the slate of women's collegiate sports.. Some of the criteria that Harsh speaks of is the proper petetions that the team had to fill out, as well as the open forum that the team had to present in the presence of the student body,

which was very positive. Team co-captain Tina Tsironis said, "I'm really excited about our opportunity. I've been on the team for two years when we were club status, and I have worked very hard to get to this point. Everyone on the team realizes that we really have a chance to make this work, and we are very motivated Right now, everything is going in the right direction." Adds student player and VicePresident of die women's club, Kris Wiley. "We are definetly up to playing on the varsity level because we have played varsity teams in the past. Above all else, I feel it will add more excitement to the school as well." Michele Finley serves as President and co-captain of the club, while student Justin Morris serves as head coach. Justin Tribble is the assistant coach. Ine team received even more encouraging information last week when the Intercollegiate Athletic Council gave the go ahead to Longwood to begin active pusuit of the women's soccer team.

Senior Ana Litton finished her brilliant LC career with a typical Litton performance; 23 points, seven assists, six rebounds, five steals and three, three-point field goals.

led 70-63 with 1:18 left before WCcut it to 70-66 on a trey. Litton than hit two free throws with :27 remaining, followed by a baseline jumper with :08 and the layin at the buzzer. "We were really ready to play," commented Duncan. "I fully expected Wofford to be more prepared to play. We forced an awful lot of turnovers and look them out of their offense. "We had a great team effort. This is certainly as big a win as we* ve had this season." In addition to Litton's line, Hillgaard finished with 15 points and seven rebounds, sophomore Charity Owens had 12 points (10 in the second half) and 14 rebounds and Lnsley wound up with 11 points. Philbrick added eight points and seven boards while freshman Claudia Blauvelt scored seven points. Lxmgwood forced WC into 27 turnovers, including 15 in the second half. Wofford came into the contest ranked fifth in the 46-team South Atlantic Region, with the top six in the region receiving bids to the NCAA Division II Tournament. The loss to the LC almost proved fatal, but the 206 Lady Terriers did gel their bid on Sunday night. It was sweet revenge for Longwood, ranked 15th in the region, though, against a team they had lost to the last four games played, and eight of 12 contests between the two schools overall.
