VOICE OF THE STUDENTS /OL.XXXIV NO.21 Thursday, January 9, 1969 CULLOWHEE, N.C. WCU Gives Computer Seminar JAMES TAYLOR, FORMER WCU STUDENT TEACHER Student Teachers Meet To Discuss O/ecf/ves By DON HARRIS 46 of the 47 students who are currently doing their practice teaching met January third for the Winter Quarter Orientation and Planning Conference. According to Ben H. Battle, Director of Student Teachers, the purpose of the conference was to pass along essential information to students before they begin their practice teaching. Battle also stated "Another purpose oi uus conierence is to acquaint the student with problems he can expect and what will be expected of him." However, it was announced that the major purpose of this type of conference was to formulate the objectives of the students taking part in the program. In the conference itself, there were two sessions with John Amick presiding at the first and Frederic Muse presiding over the second. Among the speakers at the meeting was Dr. Guy Birchfiel, whose topic was "What My College Supervisor Expects". Another speaker was James Taylor, a former student teacher at WCU, who spoke on "Student Teaching Objectives". Few students know the care that is taken in starting the students on the right foot as they enter the public schools to practice teach. There are college supervisors who form the link between the university and the student teacher while he is in the field. These supervisors are in charge of 20 or less students. The supervisors are Dr. Harold Anderson, Mrs. Anne Hoyle, Dr, Paul Flynn, and Mr. Harry Hurst, A two-day University Computer Seminar- -linking participants to computer-based research centers throughout the United States—will be held at Western Carolina University Thursday and Friday, Jan. 9-10.

The seminar is being offered for colleges and universities in the Carolinas and Tennessee by the WCU School of Business and International Business Machines (IBM) Corporation. Nationally recognized authorities in the application of computer systems to the methods and techniques of university instruction, administration, and research will lecture during the two days. The most sophisticated IBM computers will be installed at Western Carolina for the seminar. These will provide direct hook-ups, including video moni • tores, to IBM research centers in California, Atlanta, New York and other selected points in the United States. Parts of the program have been offered at other universities, but IBM and Western Carolina officials said the WCU seminar will be the first time the entire sequence has been offered in one comprehensive program. First sessions will provide basic computer concepts for participants, followed by lectures in and demonstrations of computer assisted instruction programs. These activities will serve as a background for the selected events Friday, when specific attention will be given to the use of computers in the humanities, sciences, libraries, and university atiminis- tration as it pertains to general and academic activity. The humanities session wiU be conducted by Dr. Edmond A. Bowles, a national authority in his field.

At IBM, he has been assistant manager of the department of arts and sciences, manager of professional activities in the department of university relations, and, in 1968, industry marketing representative for humanities, libraries and arts, in Washington, D.C. Use of computers in archaeology and anthropology, history and political science, music and fine arts, will be part of the humanities sequence. Additionally, Dr. Bowles will lecture and provide demonstrations in the application of computers to libraries. The science and research session will be conducted by Dr. W. Taylor Putney, a graduate of Haverford College, with advanced degrees in mathematics from Washington State College and the University of Washington. He has been in charge of planning and evaluating major research and development programs for IBM's federal systems division. Dr. Floyd Cujningham, dean of the WCU School of Business, said the seminar will be the most comprehensive of its type attempted on a college campus. In addition to Dr. Bowles and Dr. Putney, he said, the seminar staff will include Dr. G. Truman Hunter, a mathematics graduate of the University of Tampa, with a master's degree in physics from the University of Florida, and a doctor's degree in experimental nuclear physics from the University of Wisconsin. He has taught at MIT and the U. & Naval Post Graduate School at Annapolis and in 1960 was IBM's project coordinator for election activities, working with the Columbia Broadcasting System on tabulation and analysis of election returns. Other staff members will include education marketing representatives from Washington, D.C., one of whom was program manager for the development of the FBI National Crime Information Center. Also lecturing will be four members of the IBM Atlanta Field Systems Center staff. All sessions will be held in the C. D. Killian Education Building.

Towne House Announces Possible Early Closing Hours The Management of the Towne House, an on Campus eating establishment, has announced the shortening of the hours they will remain open. According to Charles Sutton, President of the Student Body, many students have approached him, expressing their wishes for the Cafe to remain open as late as possible. Sutton met with Winfred Ashe, owner of the Towne House and told of the students concern over the closing hours. Ashe stated that the change in hours was made to allow the employees a night off, but also stated that if enough students expressed their views to him or the employees of the cafe, that the original hours would be reinstated. Sutton urged, "All of the students who wish the hours to remain the same as they have been should make a point of expressing their views to the employees and manage- the employees and management of the Towne House." The reported hour changes are to close at 4 pm on Saturday, 10 pm on week nights, and an early close on Sundays. The University Center Restaurant will be serving Saturday night from 5 pm until 8 pm and Sunday afternoon from 12:00 noon until 2:30 pm.
