Headlines: Students. Look at them. They're different. Real different. The present generation's predecessors gathered in malt shops and danced at sock hops. Then there were protest rallies and sit-ins. But now the terms conservative and liberal have new meaning. Or no meaning at all. VCU students are, according to a study on voting trends, middle of the road. Middle America may now be found among leftist art students and straight-thinking future physicians. Left and right have finally merged, right down the middle of Main Street U.S.A. But students still can't escape a daily dose of liberalism. VCU students may be moderate but their faculty mentors are old order flaming liberals. Still fighting political wars and social issues, they hang onto a cause like it was a funded grant. But students can somehow comprehend the reality of double-digit inflation and 8 percent unemployment while ignoring the theology of liberalism-the ultimate philosophy of politics. But then, they aren't on a university's faculty, which guarantees the freedom to be a liberal. So the political scientists tell us. The next time you hear of VCU's hippies, ask if they have tenure. Title Publication Dates: Vol. 1 (May 1972)-v.17,no.2 (Aug. 24, 1988) Special issues for parents published [1977-1979]. Issues were undated but numbered vol. 7A, 8A, 9A corresponding to the regular volume numbering for the student paper. |
