Freshmen, transfers begin campus visits ByCHARLESGRADY Getting time off from work in the summer, filling out the impossible forms, wandering among the strange buildings and unfamiliar faces — that was orientation. If you think it was a hassle for you, imagine what it must be for Dr. Elizabeth Finlayson, the person who has been in charge of James Madison University's orientation program for the past seven years. This summer she will organize nine different orientation periods, the first starting June 25 and the last ending July 23. There will be six regular sessions for freshmen, two regular sessions for transfers, and a special one-day session for transfers. Usually there are about 250 students in each session. Of the approximately 2,250 students planning to attend JMU next fall, 20 percent may be from out of state. Since JMU is a state-supported school, state regulation prohibits the university from accepting more than 20 percent out-of-state students, thus many must be turned away. The main reason so many out-of-state people want to attend JMU is the cost. For many students it is cheaper to go to school here than it is to attend a school in their own state, Finlayson said. People from the north lead the out-of-state list. Maryland has the most incoming students with 174, New Jersey has 54, New York 46, and Delaware 19. Realizing that these transfer students nave different needs than incoming freshmen has been the key to developing what Finlayson calls a "very successful program." At one time freshmen and transfers were given their introduction to the school at the same time. Finlayson then realized that the transfers needed to have their own identity. Transfers have different concerns, Finlayson said. They don't need freshman advisors because they have completed most of their general studies requirements. Instead, they need departmental advisors who can orient them to their specific programs. This year the orientation program has taken a tentative step toward establishing a one-day session for transfer students. The experimental one-day session will be for local transfer students on July 23. It will be the last session and primarily for transfer students who have already obtained off-campus housing. There are many advantages to the summer orientation A medieval melodrama program, such as being able to pre-register, Finlayson said. Also, it gives new students an opportunity to see the campus and meet many of its important administrators, including Revisiting the sport of Kings President Ronald Carrier, the vice-presidents and department heads.

Those intestine- gobbling zombies from Night of the Living Dead are here again, and they might as well be in the street on your block. In the sequel. Dawn of the Dead, they've trapped the final survivors in a shopping mall, and are giving 'em one heck of a rough time. There are only four normal Movie review folks left: a nurse, a black cop, a S.W.A.T. man, and a copter pilot; and they've barricaded themselves in a mall full of white-faced, goo- goo-eyed dead folks. These dead folks are clumsy and slapstick, but they need living people to tear apart and suck on. Now the fun part is, these four survivors have every weapon possible at their disposal, and they seem to enjoy using them on the zombies. They've got the newest guns, the sharpest knives, the fastest cars, and enough enthusiasm to really do a job. Before Dawn of the Dead is over, there's plenty of cannibalism, decapitations, maiming and abuse. But don't worry, these corpses deserve it They're supposed to be in hell, only there's no more room so they're on earth, hanging out at shopping malls.

By MAUREEN RILEV Downtown In Harrisonburg, it's frustrating traffic jams, florescent orange ''men working" signs and annoying overhead utility lines. An hour away, in Lexington, downtown is made up of tree- lined streets with bricked sidewalks that complement historic homes and a noted absence of utility wires. However, Lexington, well- known for its connection with Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee, is more than just an historic town. Unlike other old towns such as Williamsburg, Lexington is a "living, working community with a strong sense of appreciation of tradition and heritage," according to Peter Goss, director of the Lexington department of visitor relations. "It's just twentieth-century people living in a 19th century atmosphere," he said. And the historic atmosphere is hard to ignore. Lexington has stores and businesses, but amidst these common downtown features are 23 historic buildings that have been restored to reflect 200 years of architectural achievement. The oldest of the structures dates back to 1797, and the "youngest" was built in 1884. The buildings are located on a 16-block residential walking Downtown Lexington.
