FACULTY SENATE APPROVES NEW TENURE AND PROMOTION DOCUMENT At its first meeting of the new academic year, the Faculty Senate Thursday approved the proposed revi­sion of the WCU policy on award of tenure and faculty promotions. The policy statement, which had been widely disseminated among the faculty, incorporated some changes from the document originally proposed last June, Faculty chairman Thomas Pickering said the changes, most of which reduced the length of time required at one faculty rank before being considered eligible for promo­tion, were intended to reflect pre­vailing conditions at WCU and else­where . The Senate elected a steering committee for the year. Members are Karl Nicholas (English), Quinn Constantz (Health, Physical Education and Recreation), Henry Mainwaring (Biology), Helen Hartshorne (Health, Physical Education and Recreation), and Jack Barnett (Accounting and Information Systems).

THE REPORTER A Weekly Newsletter for the Faculty and Staff of Western Carolina University * Cullowhee, N.C. * January 13, 1977 BACK FROM HOLLAND, DR. LUMB CONTINUES INTERNATIONAL CANCER RESEARCH A Western Carolina University biochemist is part of an interna­tional medical research effort with implications in cancer, respiratory disease syndrome (a major killer of infants), and arteriosclerosis. Dr. Roger Lumb (Biology) spent last year in Holland doing cancer research that may provide knowledge about all three disorders. Lumb, who is presently continu­ing related research at WCU, worked with American scientists from Duke University and New York University Medical School and a team of Nether-land scientists at the state univer­sity in Utrecht, Holland. The scientists explored the effect of certain kinds of proteins on the body's construction of cell jnembranes, or walls, in cancerous and non-cancerous cells. Dr. Lumb explained that normal cells are aware of the number of their neighboring cells and when there are enough of a particular type, then the cells stop reproducing. Sometimes a change in the cell mem­branes causes a lack of communica­tion among the cells and they keep on reproducing, resulting in what ye call cancer. He said his research may have implications in solving such diverse problems as respiratory disease syn­drome, a major killer of infants, to arteriosclerosis, an adult killer. "This is one of the fortes of f>asic scientific research," Dr. Lumb said, "it is applicable to so many problems and not just an addition to an obscure body of knowledge." The 36-year-old New Jersey native's research interests lie pri­marily in investigating what happens in the body to lipids (fats and fat­like substances). He presently is working with the scientists in Holland on the problem of how proteins affect the communica­tion among cells relative to their membranes, the part of the cell analo­gous to the human body's skin. While in Holland, Dr. Lumb and his colleagues established that dif­ferent proteins had different effects on cellular "communication" and now research in Holland, at Duke, and at WCU is continuing to find out what these differences mean. Lumb found that language was not a barrier in his research efforts. "Sometimes in the lab one |>erHon would be talking in German to someone who spoke only English while a third scientist who spoke several languages would translate for the group," Lumb explained. He said he managed to pick up a lot of the Netherland language, "enough to talk intelligently in the grocery store," he chuckled. The biochemist-physiologist said the one regret he had about the year he spent in Holland was that he was unable to exchange notes with some Russian scientists who arrived shortly afer he left. Lumb's research has been funded through grants from the National Can­cer Institute and was also supported by the Dutch equivalent of the Ameri­can Cancer Society, the Queen Wilhel-mina Funds. TRAFFIC STUDY COMMITTEE NAMED A special ad hoc committee to conduct a top-priority study of traffic and parking conditions on the campus has been named by Chan­cellor Robinson. The body, constituted as a special subcommittee of the Traffic and Safety Committee, held its first meeting Wednesday, and began collect­ing data on the number of parking spaces on campus, by type, and the number of parking stickei issued for this academic year, also by type. The committee is charged with conducting its study and preparing recommendations for three separate time periods—immediate, intermediate (through this summer, as WCU moves to the semester system), and long-range (to cover the next three years, giv­ing consideration to the completion of the English-music building, the new administration building and Moun­tain Heritage Center, and the new highway from Sylva). The committee expects to have its report completed for the first two time periods by March 1, and for the long-range portion of the study by June 1. The immediate and intermediate studies will concern themselves largely with the question of parking, but the long-range study will con­sider the broader subject of traffic flow. The committee also has been asked to plan for an additional 1,00 parking spaces during the next three years. To encourage faculty, staff, and student participation in the planning process, the committee expects to schedule open meetings during the next few weeks. Committee chairman is Pelham Thomas (Mathematics). Hugh MacDonell (acting vice-chancellor, Business Affairs) will serve as coordinator for the group. Other members are Jim Culp (director, Physical Plant), Hobby nil lard (a student), Tom Pickering (chairman of the faculty), Pritchard Smith (director, Traffic and Security), Glenn Stillion (vice chancellor, Stu­dent Development), and Ken Wood (director. Institutional Studies). UNIVERSITY RECEIVES PLANNING GRANT Western Carolina University has been awarded a $4,000 grant by the North Carolina Humanities Committee for a project entitled "The State of Franklin: Planning for Tomorrow." The grant, plus local matching funds, will finance the planning pro­ject in the seven westernmost counties of the state. Fourteen community meetings, two in each county, are being scheduled for March and April of 1977 to imple­ment the project. The meetings will include public discussions on community-based planning and will in­volve, in addition to area residents, one humanist, one scientist, and one local resident knowledgeable in reg­ional community planning efforts. Each of the gatherings will follow the same two-hour format, with one hour devoted to formal presenta­tions by the panelists, and the remaining hour open to questions from the floor and from the panelists. The purpose of this project is aimed at adding the human element to technical and scientific data which has been gathered in an effort to avoid the misuse and abuse of the resources of the seven-county region. "tt is hoped tha t thin input from area residents will result in an increased awareness of the ecological and human damage which can occur with the rapid growth of an area," Dr. Hal Salisbury, WCU director of continuing education, said. "It is also hoped that this increased awareness will lead to an orderly and well-planned development of these seven western counties." Other groups and organizations involved in the program include the Western Six Resource, Conservation and Development Council and the South­western Economic Development and Plan­ning Commission. Inquiries for further information on the project should be directed to the WCU Division of Continuing Educa­tion. NEW VOLUME OF GRAHAM PAPERS PUBLISHED Dr. Max Williams (History) is the editor of the recently published sixth volume of "The Papers of William Alex-andbr Graham," a former governor of North Carolina and Confederate senator. Graham was governor of the Tar Heel state from 1845-1849. He also served as Secretary of the Navy, and as a member of the Confederate, North Carolina, and United States senates. The book is published by the N. C. Division of Archives and History and contains letters from the yearn lHf»4«- 10f>5. Included are letters from Confederate General D. H. Hill, planta­tion owners beset with post-war problems, family letters, and letters from Graham's soldier-sons who describe important military actions during the Civil Weir. Dr. Williams, in editing the sixth volume, continues an eight-volume pro­ject begun and outlined by the late Dr. J. G. Hamilton, who edited the first four volumes of the series. After Dr. Hamilton's death in 1961, Dr. Williams took over the job. Dr. Williams' area of specialty is nineteenth-century political his­tory, Jacksonian Democracy, the Civil War, and Reconstruction. A native of High Point, Dr. Williams received his B. A. degree from Duke University and his M. A. and Ph.D. degrees from UNC-Chapel Hill. He is married to the former Sarah Clyde Johnson, also of High Point. DR. TERANGO NAMED TO WNCHSA TASK FORCE Dr. Larry Terango (director, Speech and Hearing Center) has been named to the Ambulatory/Primary Care Task Force of the Western North Carolina Health Systems Agency.

The meetings will be held in the Cherokee Room of Hinds Univer­sity Center from 2 to 4 p.m. Committee chairman Pelham Thomas (Mathematics) said the committee al­ready has collected considerable in­formation about the parking situation, and that the public hearings could be more effective if persons wishing to appear before the committee were familiar with the following findings (the committee believes most of the information to be correct, but is continuing to review it for accuracy): —No state money can be used for parking. Revenue for grading, paving, painting, signs, police vehicles, etc., must come from parking sticker fees and fines. State money might possibly be used for land acquisition. —The cost of parking garages is so high that, in order to pay for one, we would have to charge $350-$400 per parking place per year. —The average car requires about 250 square feet of parking area, in- " eluding space for aisles. Naturally, this varies with the size of the car. Approximately 40 percent more cars can be parked in areas restricted to com­pact cars. There are now approximately 3,713 parking places on campus. They break down as follows: faculty and staff, 602; commuters, 790; residents, 933; overflow, 1,282; visitors, 41; ten-minute zones, 30; thirty-minute zones, 20; and loading zones, 15. The actual number of cars that can be parked varies with the manner of parking, particularly on gravel lots. —There were 4,130 parking stickers issued to 3,592 persons for fall, 1976. The breakdown was faculty, 622; staff, 581; commuters, 1,329; upperclass residents, 1,171; freshman residents, 427. —The Office of Academic Affairs estimates that 350-390 is the maximum number of faculty that will be present on campus at any one time. —Costs of grading vary with the terrain. For example, the new ware­house parking lot, with room for about 125 cars, cost some $12,000 to grade and gravel. Paving will cost about $8,500 more (about $5,000 more if the state helps—it is a state road). Paving of level graveled area costs about $3 per square yard. The value of the land is another consid­eration. —Revenue from stickers and fines this year is expected to total approximately $62,000. Some $29,000 of this will go to pay for two full-time employees, additional part-time salaries, fuel and maintenance for vehicles, radio equipment, uniforms, telephone and postage, and similar items. About $13,000 will be used for maintenance of existing lots, painting, signs, etc., leaving about $20,000 for new projects. If there is any shortfall in revenues, most of it must come out of funds for new projects. —With present incomes and prices, the university can pave about 122 new spots per year. The anticipated growth of the faculty, staff and student body considerably exceeds this number. FACULTY ART NOW ON DISPLAY An exhibit of recent works in glass, ceramics, painting and drawing by two of the newest faculty members in the WCU Department of Art is now on display in the art gallery of Belk Building.

WHAT'RE ALL THOSE UNIFORMS DOING HERE? HERE'S THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION The newest academic department at Western Carolina University is like most other departments in many respects—the professors use class­room and laboratory experiences to teach the students. But in the new department, the professors (and occasionally the stu­dents) wear uniforms, the students drill and learn how to shoot rifles. The new department is the Depart­ment of Military Science, or in more familiar terms, Army ROTC. Nearly 60 students (about one-fourth of whom are women) are participating in ROTC. Western students have thrown themselves into the program to such an extent that several extra-curricular activities connected with ROTC already have been started. Students have formed a Ranger platoon and two color guard units. The drill teams provide color guards for athletic events. The 12-person ranger platoon is the elite and "toughest" group in the * ROTC program. Members must undergo pliyulca' conditioning that includes a four-mile run and must pass the Special Forces Qualification Test (the same test the Army's Green Berets take). They learn patrolling techniques, moun­taineering, and Whitewater rafting techniques. Qualified senior students also are able to enroll in airborne school where they learn parachuting techni­ques and may take flight instruction. The ROTC cadets have diverse in­terests and all must complete regular academic majors. The students taking ROTC are majoring in almost every field, from biology and nursing to business and education. Presently, the ROTC program at WCU is an extension of the ROTC unit at Clemson University. Clemson pro­vides three embers of its cadre to administei and •*ea^h in the program. The three utilita v science tea­chers are Lt. Col. Roy H. Herron, professor of military science and department head; Maj. Martin Tori, assistant professor; and M. Sgt. Larry D. Sims, instructor. When WCU has at least 61 fresh­men, 27 sophomores, and 20 juniors enrolled in ROTC, it is expected that a full complement of four or five officers and two enlisted men will be assigned. The ROTC program is divided in­to two parts, basic and advanced. The basic course is taught during the freshman and sophomore years. Freshman students learn the history and organization of ROTC, the branches of the Army and their purposes and the Universal Code of Military Justice (military law). They also become familiar with first aid practices. During the sophomore year, they are taught the organization and mis­sion of the rifle squad, platoon, and company, and other types of com­bat practices including mapping and leadership skills. Between sophomore and junior years, the student has to decide whether to continue studying military science. If the decision is made to continue, then students sign a con­tract with the Army which, in addi­tion to an enlistment in the Army reserves, provides them with $100 a month for 10 months and obligates them to a six-week summer camp train­ing session between the junior and senior years. In the advanced course during the junior and senior years, students learn more about small unit operations and take a course in leadership. During the senior year, career plan­ning, code of conduct, and the role of the junior officer are stressed. During the junior and senior years the student also gets practical experience at command because the senior cadets provide instruction for all laboratories.
