  • Thursday, May 9,1968 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page7 At Home With President And Mrs. Reid By CHARLOTTE A. WISE A Carolinian Feature Analysis "North to Alaska" will be the direction of President and Mrs Paul Apperson Reid, immediately following Dr. Reid's retirement after 19 years as President of Western Carolina • . .u r, In an interview at the President's home Sunday night Dr. and Mrs. Reid expressed their views about their years here, the joys, sorrows and what is in store for them in the future. The President's official home in Cullowhee is exactly as a visitor would picture the home of a university president. The furniture is elegantly tradi tional, sophisticated, as is the atmosphere of the entire house. Stereo music plays often at the Reid home because the president and his wife both enjoy music tremendously. Yet the sophisticated atmosphere is changed somewhat into a more casual, friendly one by the very personalities of the two indl- vididuals who inhabit the home. The visitor has a feeling of being very much at home, and the warmth and admiration that Dr. Reid and his wife Nettle feel for one another Is easily observed. Although both have felt a heavy burden of responsibility leading the institution, they have mixed emotions about leaving. Yet they will now have time to catch up on many of the things that they have had to bypass previously. The trip to Alaska will be their first vacation after they leave WCU, and they plan to spend a month touring both Canada and the 49th state by train, boat and bus. "I want to get out immediately, said President Reid, "so that leaving won't be so strenuous emotionally." Motioning to her husband, Mrs. Reid said: "He doesn't like to think about leaving the students." Dr. and Mrs. Paul A Reid in the WCU Presidential home Dr, and Mrs. Reid have a home at Lake Junaluska and a winter home In Clearwater, Fla., where they will spend a good portion of their first year away from WCU. Although they look forward to their rest and leisure, for as President Reid said, he is "a bit tired", they have fond memories of their life at Western Carolina. Mrs. Reid does not feel that her husband's duties as President have kept him away from her or their home to any great degree. This is because, as Mrs, Reid said, "He's included me in his goings and comings, and I've usually been able to go with him on trips, I often help him drive, but sometimes I just sit in the car while he's in a meeting. "Having Mrs. Reid on trips with me has really helped," her husband said with admiration, "and she helps me at home, too. She often types my speeches for me, in fact she was typing when you came in, I have seven more speeches scheduled before I retire, and I have been working on them in my spare moments," Dr. Reid recalled some of the highlights of his career and that of Western Carolina since he became president September 1, 1949. "I came in as president under a brand new Board of Trustees none of whom had ever served In that capacity. When they approached me about become president at a meeting in Asheville, they told me they had just fired on their own authority and recommendations two staff members to make it easier for a new man to come in*." I thanked them and said goodbye. But before Paul Reid left, the Board recended their motion and said they would leave it up to the president of the insti tution or other administrators to make a recommendation concerning personnel, I then told them I would give the matter serious consideration, But Dr. Reid was still about to decline because he enjoyed his job in Raleigh as Comptroller of the Board of Higher Education, as well as the friends and contacts he had in Raleigh, Several of Dr, Reid's friends, however, contacted him about becoming president of the little teacher's college in the mountains and one gave his opinion: "I'd rather be a big frog in a little pond, than a little frog in a big one," Each time the name of the institution was changed was a highlight in the administration of Dr, Reid as were the two significant studies made about the institution, "Which Way From Here", and "Horizon 1980," In 1956, Dr. Reid completely resigned as president of the college. However by 1957 a new president had not been found. President Reid had remarried and he was asked to return. "In Raleigh I had nothing more than a glorified office job so I returned to Western Carolina because 1 had missed the faculty, students and young May Queen Honored To Serve WCU By GAIL SAUNDERS A proud and happy Beth (Elizabeth Helen) Evans from Jacksonville, Fla., was crowned 1968 May Queen during May Court festivities Saturday. Beth said, "It made me feel very proud to be able to serve as the 1968 May Queen, and I know that the entire court feels honored to represent such a fine institution. We are all grateful to the student body for making it possible." Miss Evans is currently doing her student teaching in Gastonia and plans to teach world history after her graduation this spring. She served as a junior attendant in the May Court last spring, and this year has been active in many other activities. These include secretary of the senior class, Marshall's Club, SNEA, pledge trainer for Alpha Xi Delta sorority, and a member of the homecoming court "Being from Florida 1 had only planned to stay at Western two years, and then transfer nearer home. However, after two years I wasn't about to leave. I feU in love with the mountains and the friendly people. Now that I'm about to graduate I look back on these four years as being four very fine years fiUed with memories and experiences which will always be a part of me. I feel that I owe Western a lot for everything I've learned and gained since I've been here." As for the future, Miss Evans said that she is looking forward to teaching verv much. although at the moment, she is still undecided as to \*here she will teach. WE AT SCHULMAN'S OF SYLVA THANK Y< FOR YOLD * ATRONAGE THIS PAST SCHOOL YEAR!! IF YOU'RE IN SUMMER SCHOOL, PLEASE DROP BY. IF NOT, WE'LL SEE YOU AGAIN THIS FALL! people here," said President Reid. Three times Paul A Reid has accepted professional jobs at a salary less than he was making at that present time, While at Western Carolina, he has never requested a salary increase. "1 have tried to keep myself away from money and thinking always what I can get with money. And, I've been happier this way," In his retirement, besides traveling, President Reid hopes to catch up on his lake and deep sea fishing, "I don't like that mountain trout business, though. There's too much slippery rock!" He and Mrs, Reid enjoy golf a great deal, and they both hope to become active players again, now that they have time to enjoy the sport Mrs. Reid, who is the epitome of a great Southern lady, plans to do more reading and cooking. She also hopes to "take some of these short trips into the mountains," Both are great baseball enthusiasts and attend several professional games a year. And, if they do get to rest any from all of these activities that they plan to participate in during "retirement" they will spend this time at their home on Lake Junaluska overlooking the lake.
