Bobby Seale to visit Longwood former revolutionary to speak on black enpowerment in the 90's

by Monique Fournicr By Al Biddlecomb On Tuesday. February 28. Bobbj Scale will address ihe studenti and faculty ofLongwood College. Scale co-founded the controversial Black Panther Party in 1966. and served as its chairman for 8
yean There arc mixed feelings on campus about the justification of Scale's upcoming visit. Some students have compared the Black Panther Party to the Ku Klux Klan. and argued that a member of the KKK would never be allowed to speak at Longwood. One student said, "I don't feel anything about it, since [the Black Panthers| happened so long ago. I'm sure he has valid points, and he should be allowed to say what he wants to say." The confusion seems to come from lack of knowledge. Most people today are simply uninformed about the Black Panther Party "Young people don'I understand that.. .you saw protest on television evtry day" in the 60's. Seale points out in Stephen Kopfinger's article
The Black Panther Party for Self Defense was initially formed to oppose police brutality. In Kopfinger's article. Scale said that "what |happened | to Rodney King is nothing new." Along with Hucy P. Newton, the Parly's goal was to start "a new organization for black liberation" after the 1965 .iss.isination of Malcolm X. The Panthers also initiated community based service programs such as Breakfast for School Children, Senior Citizens Free Bussing. Prcvcntalive Medical Health Care, Cooperative Housing. People's Free Food Program, and the National Committee to Combat Fascism, among others, including mass voter registration drives With such revolutionary ideas and military-style clothing, the Black Panther received a feared reputation. But Seale told Kopfinger. We wen not hoodlums. We were not thugs. We were college educated students trying to do something."

Bobby Seale, co-founder of the Black Panther Party, will give a lecture at Longwood on February 28, about his involvement in the civil rights movement. "The Black Panther Party is nol a black racist organization." Seale says in his book, Seize the Time. "We have to oppose all kinds Ol racism." He goes on to point out that the Party "would not sloop to the low. scurvy level ol a Ku Klux Klansman" or an) other while supremacist, who "hate people bet BUM ofthe color of their skin ...We do not fight racism with racism. We light racism with solidarity." To argue against those DC cusingthe Black Panthers ol being s violent group. Scale writes. "We don't use our guns, we have never
used our guns. . .to shoot up white people. We only defend ourselves against anybody, be they black, blue, green, or red. who attacks us unliisih and tries to...kill us for implementing our programs." "What the Black Panther Party has done.' Seale summari/es." in essence, is to call for an alliance and coalition with all of the people
and organizations who want to move against the power structure." It is important to note ihe stress on power and class, not on race. continued page 2
Longwood T.V. on its way to prime time by Michael E. Klepper Tbtfl IS I legend, a tale centuries old. which tells ol four lost video tapes. According to the legend, he who locates all four tapes will become all-powerful. The Stranger, known only by his gleaming white goatee and black hooded robe, has vowed to locale these tapes. It will nol be easy however, for Lu Tang, the evil sorcerer and chief nemesis, has declared his quest lor the tapes, as well. Through battling bio-engineered monsters, chopstick wedding ninjas
and deadly maidens, the Stranger discovers the lost videos and conquers Lu Tang. Sound like a cheesy afternoon on King lu Theater? Probably, hul if you were watching Channel 2 last Wednesday night, you would know that this is to be the beginning of Longwood's weekly video show. The Outlet.

With its most decisive proposal ofthe year, the Longwood Student Senate passed a motion that may lead to ihe abolishment of the college Judicial Board. The motion was introduced by Senator-al-Largc, Greg Rasnake. which called for an amendment to Ihe SGA Constitution that would abolish the Judicial Board. The proposed amendment received the required two-thirds majority for passage al the SGA's Tuesday meeting. SGA President. Rob Postel has seven days in which lo veto the plan but has yet to indicate any plans lo do so. The issue will go before the students for final approval during spring elections. The Judicial Board is comprised of 30 members, who arc elected by the student body in order to hear and interpret violations in campus policy regarding student conduct. Over the years the board has been criticized for vagueness in policy and rulings but until Tuesday, no such drastic measure had ever been taken against Ihe student judicial system. "There was a tremendous amount of student support for this amend ment." Rasnake said. "The ball is in their [Judicial Board's] court now. "Maybe if they come up with some noticeable changes in their system, the Board will convince the student body they are needed."
Rasnake contends that because of the vagueness involved with the Judicial Board's constitution, many of the accused fail to receive the same protection as they would in regular society. "J. Board should mirror our Justice System," Rasnake added. "A student should nol have to place his or her entire college career in the hands of a board that has such little legal experience." Supporters of Longwood's Judicial Board system feel that the Student Senate acted out of paranoia and failed to look at all sides of the issue. "We never received any official notices from SGA regarding grievances of any kind," Judicial Board Chairman, John Janssen said on Wednesday. "If they have problems with ourorganization. eliminating it will not be a reasonable solution. "The elimination of J. Board will only eliminate student diversity in the schoolsjudicial system and consolidate the SGA's authority." Janssen was surprised to see the Student Senate approve such a drastic measure on such an established Longwood institution. With a possible student referendum regarding the future of the Judicial Board, Janssen still believes that the Board of Visitors will have the final say in the matter. SGA President, Rob Postel said that he believes student sentiment continued page 2
Winter open house draws prospective students by Sarah Grcenbcrg On Saturday, February 18, 1995, approximately 7(K) high school students and their parents came to Longwood's campus for ihe college's annual Winter Open House. Throughout the day, these prospective students participated in a variety of informational sessions, met representatives from each of Longwood's academic departments, and look lours of the campus. The open house gave Ihose in attendance the opportunity to learn about Longwood through more than just the college catalogue and informational brochures. Originally, this year's Winter Open House was scheduled to lake place on Saturday. February 5. However, because a storm system was (breasted to dump snow on parts ol the slate. Winter Open House was postponed until last Saturday. The tradition of Winter Open House began four years ago James Yarborough of the Longwood Admissions Office explained why the February date is a good time to invite prospective students to the college: "We decided we needed another open house in between Oktoberfest and Spring Weekend," he said Some students couldn't attend on these dates." Winter Open House has since become one ol the most popular weekends lor prospective students to visit Longwood "Much loouramaz.emcnt.it became eitremely popular." Yarborough added
This year's Winter Open House offered special interest seminars, meetings with faculty and staff, and c ampus tours to prospec I i ve stu dents and their parents. Ths special interest sessions included presentations dealing with choosing a major, filing for financial aid. andchoosing a major, while 37 Longwood Ambassadors spent the morning giving tours of the campus, "We try to add little things each time," Yarborough said. "It's a way to convince more students to attend." The majority of students attending the open house were high school seniors. Those who have ahead) been accepted were invited to attend a luncheon with members of the faculty, Admissions Office Staff. Dr Dornll, and a handful of current Longwood students. This luncheon is the newest addition to the open house According to Yarborough, the overall response to the open house w.s "extremely favorable." However, Admissions Director Robert Chonko stated that no slatisi i, lhavc ken compiled to determine the num her of students that attend Long wood who have attended Winter Open House "Winter Open House gives parents and students the opportunity to have their questions an

By Greg Prouty FARMVILLE, Va. — Longwood junior Stuart Chung kept the streak alive Sunday in Pembroke, N.C. as he finished runner-up at 126 en route to gaining a wild-card berth into the NCAA Division II National Wrestling Championships. Chung's qualification marks the eighth consecutive year that at least one member of Coach Steve Nelson's squad has gained entry into the D-ll Championships. This year's Championships will take place March 3-4 at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. Carson-Newman (Tenn.) won the team title with 83.5 points, while LC tied for sixth with 14 points in the seven-team regional. C-NC qualified a region-best six to the Nationals. Chung went 2-1, losing a lough 9-6 decision in the championship to Pembroke State's Brent Campbell. Campbell w as seeded second at 126. while Chungentcred the competition seeded fourth. Chung had wrestled at 134 all year before dropping down a weight class for the Southeast Rcgionals. He easily defeated Indianapolis' Matt Schoeltle. the fifth seed. 6-2 in the first round before topping Ashland's (Ohio) Jody Withraw. the top seed, 7-4 in the semi-final round. Chung's wildcard entry marks his second trip lo the Nationals after qualifying as a freshman two years ago. "Stuart wrestled two very, very outstanding matches," commented Nelson "His first two matches were lust sensational, and he really
■mazed me. "He made absolutely no mistakes in his first match and was Flawless In Ins second match, hebeat the eighth ranked wrestler in (he nation ind dominated him. In the last match. Stuart hurt his knee I little but still was tied with lOseCORdl left in the match."
I Meet freshman (had Juhl was the only otbei I C wrestler to
place, taking fourth at 118. Juhl was
1 -2, dropping his first match (15-6) to eventual regional champion Doug Badia of Carson-Newman (Tenn.). Juhl then defeated PSU's Brian Zegar 6-5 to advance to the consolation match where he fell 113 to Gardner-Webb's (N.C.) Bob Mobley. Mobley also received a wild card berth to the Nationals. "Chad wrestled well, as he has all semester for us," said Nelson. The big disappointment of the day was the circumstances surrounding senior Mark Hclberg. Seeded third at 190, Hclberg entered the regional with 12 victories in his last 13 matches and a Virginia College Division Championship a week earlier. Unfortunately, Hclberg went to Pembroke last weekend fighting the flu which has plagued the team and campus for several weeks. He won his first match, 13-3 over GW's Vinnie Mehovic, before falling I i (> to C-N'l Antwuan Dallas, seeded second, in the semi-finals. Hclberg was scheduled to wrestle Norfolk State's Marcus Johnson in the consolation round but was forced to withdraw due to illness. It was a bitter end to the senior's outstanding career at LC, one in which he accumulated a career record of 6437. including 22-8 this year. Helberg'scareer wins place him in a tie lor sixth all-time at LC, and his 22 victories ilus season place him tied for 10th all time. Hclberg went to the Nationals in 1993 "Mark was sick with the tlu, but won his first match before having his ribs hurt against Dallas," explained Nelson. "It was amazing thai he finished his match. He was m .i lot ol pain " Also competing for LC were sophomore Karl Lberly. along with freshman Allen Dubaky, Jamie Pole). Jell Slutsky and Nick White.
