  • October 25,1966 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 College Changes Frosh, For Better Or For Worse Viewpoint i By Sam Hull "rt library Is essentially a place for study and reading, and quiet must be maintained." This is the basic credo of Hunter Library. This quote, taken from the pages of LIBRARY REGULATIONS '/OR STUDENTS, kept, entering my mind as 1 sat studying on the main floor mezzanine one rainy evening last week. I was surrounded by a symphony of silence. There was the percussion section behind me as water from a leaking wall crashed Into a bucket below. This sound supported the quiet screamings of the Microfilm Reading Machine which seemed to play ad Infinitum. Completing this "Opus Silencio" was the intermittent whirs, gurgles, hums, and clicks of the Xerox Copying Machine. 1 remarked to the student attempting to study across from me: "Such an atmosphere conducive of scholarly pursuits?" No sooner had these words left my mouth than a stone-faced maiden (evidently a retired Harpy, itching to descend from an uppermost book shelf and rip the very tongue and vocal chords from my throat) approached from the dark stairwell. She headed directly toward my table, her dark eyes glaring at every step. Then in a voice of monotone ferocity, she spoke: "The rule for no talking applies to the mezzmine area as well as the main floor. If I have to speak to you again, I'll take your name," "Y-yes, Ma'am," I replied, as she vanished Into the stairwell as quickly as she had appeared. Alter my initial terror, I became curious as to her name- taking threat. From the looks of the situation, I was sure it was comparable to having one's name entered into the book of the Black Man of the Forest. While journeying to the main desk to procure a set of library regulations, I envisioned my having to wear a scarlet "T" for "Talker" every time I used the library facilities. With great relief, I read the consequences: "The names of students who are disturbing will be reported to the Dean of Me i and the Dean of Women. These students will be called before the proper student government organizations who will decide what disciplinary measures should be taken." Imagine what a black mark like that on one's record could do: "I'm sorry, but you have been refused admission to our graduate school because of a matter concerning your TALKING IN THE LIBRARY!" This was just all the trauma I could stand for one evening. 1 hastily retired to my dormitory wherein I relished the echoing of blood-curdling yells down the hallway, knowing all along that no punishment would ensue; that is, only before eleven o'clock p.m. on weeknights and not after one o'clock a.m. on weekends. By Rose Hooper Have you ever noticed how college can change a freshman? Now that they're not toting their beanies, they're trying to disguise themselves. Maybe it's because they don't know their real self. Freshman year is a turning point, time to take off rose-colored glasses and loss aside Mom and Dad's Ten Step Handbook on better living, and re-examine themselves and their sense of values. It is a stage of probing and constant questioning with a desperate search for something to believe in as all that has been trusted before has failed. Perhaps it lies in the fact that it's a big jolt from the top of a senior class only to be thrust at the bottom of an endless whirlpool at college. It seems as if no one will help pull them out and they won't, as freshmen have got to learn to pull themselves out and stand on their own two feeL What stands on those two feet is entirely up to the individual freshman. Hardly anyone here at college has known them previously and they hav.'the opportunity to act entirely as they please. Herein lies their shortcoming. They assume a false set of values as they try to take a shortcut to popularity. . .the consistent drunkeness to "relieve their frustrations" instead of coping with them, the sputtering, half-swallowed cigarette to give them "an air of assurance" when all they long for is fresh air. Most of them are beginning to learn that there are no detours to the road of success but FEEDBACK from page 2 The cop licked the point of his stubby pencil and carefully drew the last digit. "This your car?" "Yes sir. Why are you giving me a ticket?" "Where you been?" "I've been in the dorm; you just watched me walk out of it. Why are you giving me a ticket?" "You can't park here. This lot Is for the girl's dorm and people like you been jammin' it with a lot of other cars lately. Anyhow, you got a commuter sticker." 'Well, I was going to park in the cafeteria lot, but as of ten minutes ago there were no spaces left, so where else was I to park?" "Don't matter a bit to me where, long as it ain't here." "Weil I see there are some spaces open in the cafeteria lot now, can I just move my car and let you keep the ticket?" "No!" the cop said, obviously offended. "It's too late now. You gotta learn your lesson sometime." "Well learning a lesson in respect for the law is one thing, upholding the law is another, but common sense and human courtesy are important too, you know." The cop looked up busily digging at the dirt under his nails and uttered the classic answer of all time. "Huh?" Freeman D. Jones Filing dates for Miss Day Student and Mrs. Day Student Will be Oct. 24-28. These positions will be open only to day students., A photograph for identification puriwses should be submitted at the time of filing in the Student Senate office in Joyner Building.

PRESSLEY AND ANGEL BARBER SHOP in Cullowhee Beside Brown's General Store Clarence Pressley — Pat Angel Welcome Freshmen 8:00 a.m. — 530 p.m. Monday - Friday 800 «.in. - 6:00 p.m. Saturday — Closed Wednesday "WE BACK THE CATS" THE HIDE-AWAY Saadwicbes-Breokfas! Short Ordtrs Weekdays 7:30-10:30 THE BOOKSTORE HEADQUARTERS FOR HALLMARK CARDS AND PARTY GOODS GIFTS FOR ALL OCCASIONS In Sylva rather it is rough and rugged. No longer can they use road- maps handed down by well- wishers but they must compose their own, take the journey by themselves, and rely on their ow.i judgment. They have to be prepared for any disturbances which may occur along the way. Mama's apron strings will no longer reach. Sure, lots of times they're going to fall flat on their face and eat dirt but they're not the first nor will they be the last. There will be times when it seems like they'll never mak? it to the end but when they finally reach their destination, hey will see that patience paid ff. Freshmen will meet lots of eople along the way and they ill learn to give and take, un- ;ss being solely interested in lemselves, they're headed for Ireenwich Village. Soon they /ill learn to accept those they neet and not to condemn them or what they believe or try o convert them to their own irejudiced cult. Koommates Kill be a test on their capacity to adjust and compromise and dates will be a test on their judgment of character. Study habits are the toll for this road. Record players and consistent chattering, freshmen complain, prevent them from studying as they have not learned to concentrate, Freshmen cannot see obstacles until they get right on them because they think they can get away with more when they only have two tests a quarter and can cut classes freely. Yet all of a sudden it will catch up with them and they will end up in a smashing collision. . . flunking out or passing out. This time professors can't be blamed as freshmen are entirely answerable to their own actions. Homes arent what they once were either. It is not because the families have changed but because freshmen have changed. They fee) a reminiscent pang of regret when they discover that their families can run smoothly without them. Yet the freshmen no longer need them. This is their first step on the road to maturity. FALL FASHIONS Even on a rainy day, niceties by John Meyer of Norwich make a person as lovely as a mannequin in a clothier's on the Rue de la Mixtde. M'ss Liz Moore from Weaverville, N. C. models her favorite from the suit selection at the Varsity Shop. Made with infinite precision, this suit adds color, beauty, and distinction to any of Cullowhee's various weather conditions. The all-wool two piece suit is composed of an A-line skirt and a jacket tailored like a overblouse. For all of your rainy day blues, visit the Varsity Shop. {Kilt ^ar«itp &tjop Traditional Clothing for The Gentleman I His Lady
