Onward ever Longwood, Proud and true eternally, Thy love will always guide and protect and keep them faithful to Thee, Thy love will always guide and protect and keep them faithful to Thee. © Louard Egbert and Quentin Vest, 1980 THELONGWOODUNIVERSITYMACE SYMBOLIC OF AUTHORITY, a mace is an object carried by officials on ceremonial occasions. The honor of carrying Longwood’s mace is bestowed upon a senior faculty member chosen as chief faculty marshal by the university president. The chief faculty marshal leads the procession of faculty during convocation, commencement and other special occasions. Unveiled at the inaugural celebration for Longwood’s 25th president, Patrick Finnegan, the university’s new mace acknowledges Longwood’s 2002 designation as a university. The architectural elements employed in the design represent Longwood physically and metaphorically. Specifically, the design recalls the historic heart of Longwood’s campus, Ruffner Hall and the Rotunda. The mace’s fluted shaft recalls Ruffner’s columns and symbolizes the pillars of knowledge. The cube adorned with the Longwood University Seal, the Seal of the Commonwealth of Virginia and Joan of Arc’s coat of arms represents the university’s mission to inspire leadership in service of the common good. Encased within the cube are objects from the university’s past, including a minié ball that struck Ruffner Hall during the Civil War as well as a piece of wood that remained when Ruffner burned to the ground in 2001. The top of the mace depicts Ruffner Hall’s Rotunda (rebuilt and rededicated in 2005), which is emblematic of Longwood’s spirit of perseverance. By tradition, a mace is surmounted with an orb, symbolizing the cosmos. Here, the Rotunda dome serves this purpose and also symbolizes Longwood’s role as a sanctuary for learning.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Stephen R. Taaffe, Macarthur's Korean War Generals. Manhattan
    Book Reviews they were couched. In reality, CND did fall under Communist Party influence, and its pro-Soviet tendencies help to explain why, when the peace movement revived in the 1980s, the British Left’s leading nuclear disarmer, E. P. Thompson, created an alternative organization, European Nuclear Disarmament, of which Hogg makes no mention. Even so, for all its shortcomings, Hogg’s book deserves praise for its valuable historical survey of cultural allusions to nuclear power and nuclear weapons over the decades. Of particular interest in this regard, and worthy of elaboration, are its final remarks on the significantly changed climate of opinion since the end of the Cold War, when terrorism came to be conceived as the major threat and “nuclear kitsch [was] mobilized to recreate a lost and harmless past” (p. 172). ✣✣✣ Stephen R. Taaffe, MacArthur’s Korean War Generals. Manhattan, KS: University of Kansas Press, 2016. 216 pp. $34.95. Reviewed by Allan R. Millett, University of New Orleans Having written two books on the U.S. Army’s senior officers in World War II, Stephen R. Taaffe extends his investigation of ground forces’ senior leadership to the Korean War. His latest book evaluates the generals of the United Nations Command (UNC), the U.S. Eighth Army, and the U.S. X Corps. His work extends the analysis in D. Clayton James, Refighting the Last War: Command and Crisis in Korea, 1950–1953. Taaffe’s focus on the uneven operational performance of Army generals is a welcome corrective to the traditional criticism of the rank and file in Korea.
