  • CAROLINIAN EDITOR I \LS Take One Giant Step ... Today's statement on page one issued by the President of the University is indeed a step in the right direction. Such a statement was needed months ago. It is a shame that it took the resignation of the President of the Student Body and the threat of some form of campus demonstration before some definite action was taken by the administration on these several issues facing the students. Students want these services and they are unaware of behine-the-scenes action being taken. Unless student leaders are informed and consulted, they have no alternative other than to think that no action is being taken. This is more than just a principle. The lack of communication between students and administration will everytime lead to lack of co-operation. Students must and should be informed of local issues and what action or inaction is being taken. Nearly 140 recommendations were presented at Pre-Session. Many of these proposals were valid, while others of course were unfeasible. However, each was carefully considered by the Student Senate, only to have many of these tied up in administrative red-tape. Some of these proposals were four years old. Such practices as these have been a pain-in-the- neck to all concerned. They have been a near catastrophic factor in stunting the growth of this university. We hope that the events of last week, one of the most important weeks in the history of WCU, will begin a new era of students and administration working together to keep apathy, ignorance to details, and antiquated red-tape out of the way of the growth process. We commend President Pow for his actions, even though it may be late in coming. When he took the office in July, the students saw Dr. Pow as the instrument of change that has been needed at WCU. Pow's statement can be seen as a reaffirming of this hope. Although not a giant step, this is a step in the right direction of meeting student needs and allowing the student to take a larger part in his own education.

Subscription rate, $4.00 per year. Feedback Dear Editor and Fellow Students: Let me first explain thai I truly believe the rights of others are always to be respected. Therefore I urge anyone who wishes to disagree with me as to the content of the following statements do so . . .bymaking your ideas available ~ in the Western Carolinian, which can only be the "voice of the students" if toe students write, as I am doing. I strongly support student government on the grounds that those involved have literally beat their brains out for the good of the student body, But it takes more than this. We need total support Not 1000, but 4000 students should have attended the assembly to hear our President speak. How should we support student government? Not by demonstration, but by the following methods: Total involvement in the elections. Everyone should vote! If every student on campus votes, the "Bird Cage" will take notice immediately. Everyone should also write a letter to Dr. Pow, or some member of the administration. If 4000 letters, costing each of us a puny 6C and 5 minutes time, pour in, the "Bird Cage" will notice! Tomorrow, Wednesday, April 23, should be the day In which every student demands the opinion of every instructor he sees in class that day as to his feelings about the present situation. If each and every instructor encounters interested students in every class he teaches for one full day he will be impressed. It doesn't take much to get a professor off the track for 1 or 2 minutes, anyway! Demonstrations I am against for one reason only. In their very nature, they are dangerous. Some non-participating person could get hurt And we never have that right — to infringe in any way on the rights of others, I sincerely hope that every student who reads this will vote, write that one letter, and "talk it up" about student government, because these are forms of the rights that are guaranteed to us by our American Constitution. This is the American way - • the right way to participate in government Respectfully, in your interest, "Jay North" Dear Editor: In light of the action taken by Mr. Charlie Sutton last week, the Black Students United for Liberation wish to whole-heartedly support his resignation. We feel that if he were as uninformed about administrative procedure as he claimed; his resignation was long overdue. Further, the Black Stu dents United for Liberation wish to commend Dr. Alexander S. Pow for his "thoughtout" and "reasonable" consideration of our demands. The Progress that has been made since Mr. Sutton's resignation (milk machines being installed, etc.) makes it evident that his resignation could have been more effective had he submitted it four to nine months earlier. In this we believe any request taken to the administration after his resignation would have been acted upon immediately. Realizing fully that any interpretation we might have had regarding Mr. Sutton's statement that the Black student demands were "out of the clear blue sky rather than the thoughout and reasonable student request", we hope that no serious or crucial misinterpretation has occured on our behalf concerning his resignation. We Remain, Black Students United for Liberation Civil Rights-What Now? For many years the civil rights movement in America addressed itself single - mind- edly to one problem: the desegregation of all aspects of American society. This goal was predicated on the idea that as an American, the Black man had every right to participate without restrictions in all segments of the society. There can be no question that in the early days of the movement many gains were made: It is now possible for a Black man to travel South without having to sleep and eat in his car. It is now possible for some Black children to attend integrated schools. Many jobs and opportunities have opened up in the North and South. All around one can see evidences of the work of the early civil rights movement But, in this year of 1969, more than a decade after the movement started in Montgomery when a seamstress refused to move to toe back of the bus, people in the movement CONTINUED Page 3 . . . .
