Long wood's Newest Ingredient REBECCA SHIELDS Sufi Writer On January 17, 2000, the recipe will be completed for the new dining hall,, which is located on Pine Street across from Lankford Student Union. The first construction phase for the enormous 60,000- squarefoot facility began during the spring of 1998. Initially, the new main dining hall will be located on the second floor with a seating capacity of 2,000. This new edition to Longwood College is the first building on campus which will utilize the ground as a heat exchange system. This system will control the building temperature
as the seasonal climate changes. The new climate-control system involved drilling 300 wells which will allow the ground surrounding the building to absorb and release heat as the climate and temperature change.

chairs, china, and, believe it or not, full-size glasses. There will also be a large variety of food sections including a stale of the art food court with all major concepts: Grill works. Deli (Hot and Cold), Omelets to order, Breakfast Bar. 'Wellness Corner" with vegetarian and healthy options, a huge salad bar, Pasta Station, soft serve and hand-dipped ice cream, and frozen yogurt. Space has also been reserved for future development of a cash dining hall on the order of the Student Union. With all this nearing completion, the dining hall should be a welcome addition for hungry Longwood students.

Longwood Increases Student Enrollment KELLY WOOD Staff Writer The population in Farmville is expanding rapidly. According to the Longwood homepage, 3,600 students enrolled for classes this semester. This is an increase of four percent over previous years. This small school, priding itself on undersized classes, is now reaching new heights with the student increases. According to an article in The Farmville Herald. Longwood projects that by 2007 there will be approximately 5000 students attending. To increase living space on campus, juniors and seniors are encouraged to consider off-campus housing. In the past, seniors were the only students that had this option, and the housing off campus was limited. Even with more students residing off campus, there is still overcrowding in the Longwood
dormitories. Students have differing opinions on this increase of population. Eryn Stanley, a senior at Longwocjd, stated "I chose to attend Longwood because of the small student body and campus size. In the four years that I have been here, I have noticed an increase. My class size lias expanded by almost a third. If I had the choice now, I would consider a smaller school than Longwood." Amy Pack agreed with Eryn. She stated, "I came to Longwood specifically because it is a small school, and now I feel that my reasoning is being defeated." Regardless of both positive and negative opinions on the increase, Longwood is growing and evidently will continue to do so. Longwood College is preparing for this increase and in the next few years, Farmville just may become a larger town.
The Help Desk Answers Technology Questions for Students GEORGE LANUM Asst. Features Editor As the face of technology continues to change, Longwood and the Information Technology Department continue to change as well. When many of these changes occur, people are often unaware of them. The Information Technology Help Desk and 77K Rotunda newspaper are teaming up to answer your technology-based questions and keep you informed of changes involving technology. As many know, the RTA (Resident Technology Associate) program, now in its second year.
was set up in order provide technical support to students in their rooms. There are currently 15 RTA's who support various buildings. The on-call hours of RTAs are 6p.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday, Saturday 2:00p.m. to 9:00p.m. and Sunday 2:00p.m. to 12:00a.m. Please contact the RTA that supports your building. Please call only one RTA at his room before paging him. Longwood is currently in its second year of offering Dell Laptops to students. With any piece of technology, problems can arise. When calling Dell, be sure
to document the call. Record the name of the technician you spoke with and record your service call order number. If your computer requires a visit to Longwood from a Banktec or Wang technician, please call the Help Desk at 4357 and they will process a work order. Then you can take your laptop to our Student Network Group located in the Graham building behind the police station. The RTA's recently completed the freshman laptop care and feeding classes. This is a class that introduces you to your laptop. Based on the survey from those participating in these classes, a
large percentage of students have requested an additional class. The RTA's and the Help Desk are pleased to offer a class that will focus on Eudora and the Internet. The class will be offered Wednesday September 29, from 6:007:30p.m., Thursday, September 30. from 3:30-5:00p.m.; and Tuesday, October 5, from 6:007:30p.m. All classes will take place in Hiner 207. Starting this semester, UTS has set up a web trading post and a community announcements web board hoping these additions will help. The Longwood Trading Post will enable faculty, staff,
and students to post information about personal items they want to make available to other members of the Longwood community. Community Announcements is an area designated for posting upcoming events, happenings, and information of interest to faculty, staff, and students. In addition, the Help Desk web board will aid in technical support. If you have a computer question or a question involving technology in general, feel free to post An RTA, will research and post the answers to these ques-

College Work Study vs. Federal Work Study: Where's theWork? J)RD8 ASHLEY BROWN Assl. Opinion Editor As the school year begins again and students are looking for jobs, the positions available on campus are quickly taken. The majority of these jobs are only offered to the students in the Federal Work Study Program. Those in the Federal Work Study Program are students who have financial aid and/or student loans. Students without financial aid or student loans are put in the College Work Study program. This is where the problem lies. Most of the Federal Work Study jobs are funded by the government This means that the college does not have to pay for them to work. The college does have to pay students who work for College Work Study, which causes the positions to be limited. Just because some students'
tuition can be paid in full by their parents or some other generous benefactor does not mean that they are showered with cash for bills and spending money. It is
wrong for the school and the government to assume this because it is not always true. One Longwood junior who lives off campus has her tuition taken care of by her parents; however, she still has a monthly rent bill of $200, plus all other bills and groceries. This adds up to at least $400 a month, which necessitates of a job.
An on-campus job would be ideal for her because the employers are very flexible with students' schedules, but since she is in the College Work Study Program, there are very few positions open to her. Working the front desk, the information desk, and other desk jobs in small offices are all Federal Work Study jobs. There are few jobs open to both types of work study: Dining Hall jobs in Lankford Cafe, and the Academic Computing Labs. But if you have some kind of aversion to working with food and/or are computer illiterate, you may be out of luck and out of an on-campus job. For more information about campus job opportunities, you can check out the Longwood College Homepage, contact Nadine Garrett, or go by the Housing Office in Lancaster.

NEWS & MEWS Listen to the Silence Revised After Freshman Incident EDEN MILLER Staff Writer It's been a rite of passage for the incoming freshmen for several years now. They are ushered into Jarman Auditorium during orientation to watch Listen to the Silence, Longwood's play to raise awareness about how to prevent date rape. Last year, however, the freshmen class gave the show a disrespectful and rude reception, laughing inappropriately and heckling throughout. Upset by this sort of behavior, the students and faculty of Longwood's theater department knew something needed to be changed. Listen to the Silence was originally written by T.C. Clarke, a Longwood student, and Susie Bruce, the head of the Wellness Center. Up until this year, the only update that had occurred with the |script was to change the statistics. However, after the controversy surrounding the crowd's reaction to the play last year, senior
Samantha Woollen found herself in the position of reworking the play as well as directing it. "I innocently asked who was directing it and the next thing I knew, I was sitting in front of my computer crying," Wootten said explaining how she came to be chosen for this task. While she is an English major, Wootten has been actively involved in theater since her freshman year, and she was able to draw on her experiences in both in undertaking this project. Wootten's first step in this process was to talk to the actors and audience to sec what they did and didn't like. For most people, the comedy that was in the play seemed false. Terry Jachimiak, who was stage manager last year for Listen to the Silence, and had the daunting task of being lighting designer as well as acting in the show said, "The major problem we had was that the incoming freshmen found the subject of
Is Longwood Ready for Y2K? JAMIE TURNER Copy Editor With the new millenium approaching many of you have probably heard about all of the Y2K mumbo jumbo. Everyone has made such a big deal about it and at this point you don't want to hear anymore about it. Well, students may want to take notice a little and become informed of some of the things that could happen at Longwood with the turn of the century. First of all, one needs a little background information on exactly what Y2K is. Computers were designed with a fatal flaw. Instead of usi ng four digits to represent the year, they were designed to use two. As the millenium gets closer, many computers and computerized devices will Become confused and shutdown or produce incorrect data. These problems can be found in mainframe computers, desktops,
and in some systems that used micro-chip based "embedded systems." Longwood has been preparing for Y2K for the past three years. Every system has been tested to see if it is Y2K compliant. They tested all of the systems and equipment by setting the date for January 1,2000, and they did not have any problems. In preparation for Y2K, students who own a PC other than a Dell are advised to run a series of tests on their computer to make sure that they are Y2K compliant. These tests can be downloaded from a Y2K site on the internet. As for Longwood in general, its major concerns are things the college cannot control, such as Virginia power and telephone company vendors. Longwood seems to be relatively well prepared and just waiting now to see what the turn of the century will bring.
rape comical. The biggest change Wootten made was making rape more serious." She was able to do this by cutting a lot of the excess humor from the play and shortening it from 45 minutes to a half-hour. "Gene [Muto, the head of Longwood's Theatre Department] had his own ideas that he wanted incorporated," she says, "such as making certain scenes more realistic. The Angel/Devil scene was reworked into the Mike/Jock/ Nice Guy scene." By changing this scene, a lot of the unrealistic humor that had existed was turned into a light-hearted scene that still had a powerful message. "College students are beyond the cartoonish Angel on right shoulder, Devil on left, comedy. The audience needed a break from the intensity of the rape scenes, but they didn't need to be condescended to either." For her cast, Wootten chose newcomer Elizabeth Yoms for the
lead role of Kate. Yorns originally went to the audition because she wanted to get involved in the Longwood Theatre since she had been very active in her high school's theatre department. "Everyone was really nice and made me feel welcomed." Despite being an unknown, Wootten says of Yoms, "In terms of acting, I had no worries." Perhaps the most significant part of this year's production of Listen to the Silence was the move away from focusing on being a victim of rape towards being a survivor of rape. "I don't think it started out being a conscious decision, in all truth," Wootten says of this move, "but the more I worked with it, the more I saw the importance of moving away from the victim mentality." Wootten did make a conscious effort to have the play speak more directly towards women. "I was concerned that I was making the male species ap-
pear evil or effeminate, but I also realized that I had a primarily female audience as well," she says. "There seemed to be a lot of mixed signals going on [in last year's production] and I wanted to avoid that as much as possible." The changes made to Listen to the Silence seem to have worked.This year's freshmen class did not react inappropriately to any scenes, and laughed only when the play intended them to. "I was more relieved that we didn't get the same reaction from the year before more than anything," Wootten says to the reception the play received. While she's unsure if her version of the script will be used in the future, Samantha hopes that "if revisions are made to the script, that the intent and focus are kept." However, she says that working on Listen to the Silence was "a positive experience that I hope made an impact on the audience."
Longwood's New Financial Aid Director LAURA EYNON Staff Writer Just about every year, new. faculty and staff are brought into the Longwood community. This year one of those is new Financial Aid Director, Jeff Scofield. Scofield came to work at Longwood College after being the Financial Aid Director for six years at Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio. This private university was roughly the same size as Longwood, which Scofield liked, but he did not enjoy the two-hour commute to work and back. In order to spend more time raising his two young children, Scofield searched for a similar-
sized school in a small community. Scofield was attracted to Farmville and Longwood because of the size of the college and community, but more importantly because of the friendliness of the people in and around the school. When he came during the summer for his interviews, he was impressed by the positive attitude he felt from the administrators working together for the students' best interests. Although he doesn't see any problem areas with the Financial Aid program, Scofield says there is always room for improvement. He wants to keep up with advancing technology, possibly
using email and websites to help inform students. His motto is to make it "easier, better and faster for the student." He lived in a dorm for ten years, working in a REC-rype job, so he understands what the students need and what is happening to them. He doesn't want laundry to go unwashed because money can't be scrounged up. One of his top priorities now is finding more money for student scholarships. So, in the future, keep an eye out for improvements to the Financial Aid Department, and then thank Jeff Scofield for making the process "easier, better, and faster."
Take a Shot at Six Shooters ERIKA MURPHEY Staff Writer Last year, it was common knowledge that for most students, the weekend was Thursday through Saturday night. This year, the nightlife on Thursday nights has suffered considerably upon the closing of the 205 Steakhouse.
Now everyone seems to be asking the same question: Where do we go? If you are over 21, Six Shooters is the answer. Six Shooters is the newest bar in Farmville. It offers much more than drinks. The music is always playing at Six Shooters. The sounds range from country mu-
sic to rock and roll. During the week there is a D.J. and on week ends there is usually a band and a D.J. to play during the breaks. Alongside the full bar is a dance floor. If you are not interested in the nightlife, you can come for See SHOOTERS p. 5
NEWS & VIEWS Battle Wages Within Library SEPTEMBER 23,1999
J1LDA KEY Guest Wriler While students were away during the summer, the library staff prepared for the first annual "Battle of the Books." This contest is successfully proving that the library is not just a source for mundane journals, criticisms, and books by haughty experts. The "Battle of the Books," which began Monday, September 6, is a contest developed by the library staff to increase reading among students and community members. As contest books fly out the doors, patrons are learning that the library holds numerous works of fiction which are enjoyable titles to be devoured in between classes and after work.
"I believe that the book contest is a great idea. It really gets all the patrons and staff involved in reading," said Angie Moore from Circulation/Reserve. Each member of the library staff selected 15 books that they thought students and community members would like to read. Selections range from works of fiction to cookbooks and include titles and authors like LA. Noir by James Elroy, Life After Cod by Douglas Coupland, Hot Sex: How To Do It by Tracy Cox, Little Alters Everywhere by Rebecca Wells, and Death by Chocolate by Marcel Desaulnier. Because of the contest's success, the library staff has selected an additional ten books, which will be placed on the contest book shelves (located

Credit Cards and Students

Picture of the Week APO at the Involvement Fair
ASHLEYBKOWN Assl. Opinion Editor "Undergraduate students ages 18-24 showed an average credit card debt of $1,843 in 1999..." reports the Nellie Mae Corporation in a recent report. Nellie Mae is a national student loan provider that works to educate students about the risks of high borrowing. Most of us don't even have a hundred dollars to our names at any one time, let alone SI,843 lying around to pay off a nagging, ever-increasing debt. So, how can we manage our money so that we won't be paying off debts for the rest of our lives? In a letter to the editor the . President of the United States Student Association (USSA), Anthony Samu listed a few helpful hints. Most importantly, "If you don't have enough money to cover your expenses, do not begin making charges on your credit
card to make up the difference. Something has to go," says Samu. So, how do Longwood students and parents feel about credit cards? One Longwood parent, Deborah Montgomery, suggests, "Credit cards only encourage students to live beyond their means. Only when they can pay off their monthly debts, should they own a credit card." Longwood junior Sarah Menkes agrees, "Students and credit cards don't mix." Of course there are students out there that manage to keep their credit card debts under control. In a credit card survey, the Institute for Higher Education Policy reports that 59% of allege students pay their monthly credit card bill in full. If we as students learn how to improve our money management, Anthony Samu hopes, "we will erase the notion that adult college students are naive and irresponsible."

KRISTIEUTTLE Staff Writer

Some of her direct service will be spent al the Longwood
Center for the Visual Arts providing art therapy for at-risk children in Prince Edward County. Ellen and Jennifer would like to get more Longwood students to help out this year. They hope that more groups and individuals will register at the G.I.V.E. office to do community service. There is always room for advancement through G.I.V.E. Volunteering can get students recommendations, internships, and a sense of giving back to the communities around them. The office also encourages faculty to use service projects to enhance their curriculum. Community Service is the kind of challenging experience that will change the lives of those you help, as well as your own. If any individuals or groups are interested in becoming a part of this rewarding experience, please call Ellen Masters or Jennifer Waugh in the G.I.V.E office at x2397.
LC to Welcome Cabaret PRESSRELEASE
Longwood Theatre opens its millennial season on September 29 with the hit Broadway musical Cabaret. Performances ^ are at 8 p.m. on September 29 through October 2, with a 3 p.m. matinee on Sunday, October 3. Set against the backdrop of the gathering storm of the Nazi political movement in Germany, the story of Cabaret is about Clifford Bradshaw, an aspiring American writer who is roaming Europe in an increasingly frantic search for inspiration for his new novel. He is soon attracted to an enticing nightspot-the Kit Kat Klub-with its bohemian (and sometimes shady) clientele. The cabaret lures Cliff from his typewriter and into the clutches of the Berlin underground nightlife. He is immediately enamored of Sally Bowles, and in a very short while (and much to the chagrin of his landlady), she leaves her present lover and moves in with Cliff, oaJy to complicate his life, and in
the end, break his heart. Equity actress Jan Guarino appears in the leading role of Sally Bowles. "The Toast of Mayfair," Longwood alumnus Stevie Journey returns to campus to create the role of the Emcee, and Theatre and Music faculty members Pamela Arkin and Thomas A. Williams play the roles of Fraulein Schneider and Herr Schultz. The production is under the direction of Gene Muto, Donald Trott is musical director, and faculty/alumna Erin Thomas is serving as choreographer. The scenery is by Tony Hardin and costumes are by Patt Ness. Tickets are available at the door or by calling the Jarman Auditorium Box Office at extension 2474. If you need to speak with a real live person. Box Office hours are Tuesday-Friday, 3-5 p.m. Season tickets are also available for the Longwood Theatre Millennial Season. This production is for mature audiences only.
Tom Deluca returned to rouse Longwood with his "Theatre of Imagination" Thursday, September 9, in Jarman. Deluca has brought his show to Longwood for the past six years, and this year's performance packed the excitement and energy into two nearly sold-out shows. Deluca, working in the field as a hypnotist, had a strong desire to transfer his skills and apply them to the entertainment industry. He said that he had a certain desire to succeed in this unusual vocation. He feels that he has a natural knack and reparte with people, which gives him the ability to get into their heads. Marketing himself to colleges and corporations almost solely, Deluca is constantly busy. He plays an average of 150 colleges a year. During the college off time, Deluca performs for corporations. Between perfor-
mances, he spends a lot of time on the phone and honing his act. "One of the hardest things about the shows is taking people
to a point and keeping them there," said Deluca. "You have to be there; you just can't walk through a show. There is no autopilot." Deluca's show appeals to a large number of people because he always delivers a tastefully
spellbinding performance. There is something about Deluca's show that everyone will understand. He has the ability to expose the common traits innate in everyone. Drew Walker, one of Deluca's victims, said, "It was kind of embarrassing, hearing what people said. It was cool, I'd recommend it." Drew has been on stage twice before, but this was the first time that it actually worked. Kasey Stout, one of the spotters with Lancer Productions, said, "I was skepucial to begin with, but afterwords I totally believed. I thought he was amazing." Deluca has been on the college circuit since 1979. He has won National Association of Campus Activities Campus Entertainer of the Year four times. Tom Deluca is currently nominated for the 1999 NACA Entertainer of the Year Award, as well as the 1999 National Association of Campus Activities Variety Entertainer of the Year Award.
CD Review: A Place in the Sun MICHELE THOMPSON Asst. Copy Editor Every CD has one; it's that song that is overplayed to the point you'd like to hit yourself repeatedly with a frying pan. In Tim McGraw's new album A Place In the Sun it is "Please Remember Me." This song is truly beautiful and haunting, but after hearing it 12 times a day, you lose appreciation for it. Maybe if I pull it out 6 months from now I will fall in love with it all over again. One of the best songs on the CD is "Something Like That " It's about first love and how it's never forgotten even if you run into each other years later. It's a faster song and a lot of fun, not a ballad, as you might expect It tells how many details you can remember about the important moments in your life. Then there's the song about an age we all remember, "Seventeen. " This song is about what we
were like way back then. I was thinking it sounded a lot like being in college "standing on the edge of everything." Another sweet ballad is
"Somebody Must Be Prayin' For Me." It's about the good fortune in our lives. Is it luck or is someone praying for us? And of course there is the inevitable drinking song "Senorita Margarita." It's about a man
who needs the comfort of a few margaritas to ease the pain before trying to win back the woman that he loves. He "just can't be alone tonight." A beautiful song about just making it is "Carry On." This song is about doing what we have to and not "running scared." We should look on the optimistic side of things and just pick ourselves up and get on with the business of life, which is all we can do sometimes. A Place In the Sun is an excellent CD with a variety of music, not just the same tune with different words. It tells about the search for meaning and our place in the world. I like every song on this CD, which is a rarity for me, though I do like some better than others. If you are a Tim McGraw fan or if you're just looking for some good music, pick up A Place In the Sun. ••••stars

Choosing the Right Retirement Company Makes All the Difference
I believe five out of four people have trouble with fractions. I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans. I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older, then it dawned on me, they were cramming for their finals. I thought about how mothers feed their babies with little tiny spoons and forks, so I wonder what Chinese mothers use. Perhaps toothpicks? Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do...write to these men? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for them while they delivered the mail? Never agree to plastic surgery if the doctor's office is full of portraits by Picasso.

Movie Review: Stigmata KIM URANN Asst. News Editor The only frigthening thing about the new movie. Stigmata, is how much it makes you think. Previews for the film made many believe it was more of an Exorcist for the millenium. Well, the Exorcist this is not. Compared to the classic horror flick. Stigmata falls short. It's an adventurous romp, though, testing the boundaries of faith, science and love. Patricia Arquette plays Frankie, a "heathen" who is suddenly inflicted with what seems to be stigmata-the wounds of Christ. Add on to that the fact that she is also possessed by a dead priest, and you know the poor girl's in for some serious trouble. Gabriel Byrne portrays Fa-
ther Andrew, a scientist turned priest who studies cases like Frankie's all over the world. His search for the truth becomes paralleled by his desire to keep Frankie alive. What he discovers over the course of the movie is an intricate plot by the Church to cover up a message. This message, according to the higher-ups of the Vatican, would knock Christianity right off if s feet. If it is discovered, that is. The acting is done well, and the story line is based on something that might really have happened. All in all, this movie warrants at least a viewing, but not necessarily at the movie theater.
TIAA-CREF's operating costs are among the lowest in the insurance and mutual fund industries.2 So more of your money goes where it should - toward ensuring your future.
Superior strength
