TheWESTERN CAROLINIAN VOICE OF THE STUDENTS VOL. XXXIV NO. 45 Tuesday, April 22,1969 CULLOWHEE, N.C. Meets 5 Student Demands Pow Says He Is For Student Government This administration is deeply committed to the encouragement of responsible Student Government Student leaders this year have been consulted more than ever before on matters of concern not only to students but to the entire University. This consultation is continuing. In two recent instances, administrative action has been interpreted as a lack of University commitment to responsible Student Government In my opinion, this interpretation is not correct In the discussions with Black students, reasonable requests on which the University could and should act, or begin study, were made. These requests dealth with matters clearly within University policy and intended practice. No relaxation of my commitment to responsible Student Government was involved. I have made it clear to this and other emerging student groups that they must comply with Student Government constitutional provisions for official University recognition. The disturbance policy recently adopted by the Board of Trustees was developed to fill a vacuum within the University. I have received no dissent from the view that we should have a policy known to the entire University, I hope it is clear that the University intends both to preserve the right of peaceful demonstration and to enjoin violence and disruption. Responsible student leaders believe they could have contributed to the development and understanding of this policy if they had been Included on the ad hoc committee which prepared it I am convinced that they are right Encouragement of responsible Student Government by the administration presupposes responsible student leadership. I will always be responsive to that type of leadership. Responsible student leaders have submitted five requests to me in the form of a resolution for which they are seeking student signatures., Because these requests deal with matters of concern to the entire University, and because before this time they have been matters of administration-student deliberations and action, I am pleased to state the administration position and the progress made. 1. The improvement of dormitory vending machines. The University will provide a vending machine service to afford cold drinks, coffee, milk, juice, sandwiches, assorted candies, crackers, chips, pastries, and cigarettes in each dormitory. Proposals for comprehensive provision of this service from Servomation-Smoky Mountain, Inc., and Macke Vending Service will be considered by the Faculty-Student Athletic Committee Wednesday, April 23, 1969. The president will act promptly upon receipt of the committee's recommendations. 2. Return of student monies from the Alumni Association. Realizing the importance of the alumni, but recognizing that a student fee is not a desirable WCU To Continue Successful Teacher Corps Program WCU—which began one of the most successful Teacher Corps programs in the United States in 1966—has been approved for an unprecedented "fourth cycle" continuation. Announcement of the decision to fund a fourth group of teacher interns—teaching in mountain schools and studying at WCU— was made by the Department of Health, Education, and Wel- far through the office of 11th District Congressman Roy A. Taylor (D-NC). The department said funding for the program has been granted, but the actual dollar amount will be negotiated later. This has become the general procedure followed with other grants. The program will train and place into service 33 new Corps members, with 10 teams, during the summer. Beginning in the fall, the interns will work in Western North Carolina public schools while studying toward a master's degree at WCU, and state teacher certification. Working jointly with WCU in the fourth cycle Teacher Corps program will be county school systems in Graham, Haywood, Jackson, Macon, Swain and Transylvania, and the city school system in Asheville. Dr. Guy Burchfiel, professor ' of education, is director of the WCU Teacher Corps program. Coordinators in the public school systems are Mrs. Mary Crisp, Graham county; Dr. Samuel Smith, Haywood; Earl Hooper, Jackson; Barry Floyd, Macon; Mrs, Carrie Abbott, Swain; Joseph E. Belton, Asheville, and Mrs, Hilda Olson, Transylvania. Attention Faculty Faculty caps and gowns ordered through the Student Center-Supply Store will be available on April 22 and 23 and the morning of April 24 in the cloak room on 3rd floor of the A. K. Hinds Student Center. CONTINUED PAGE 3. . . way to finance it, I am proposing a transition period by recommending to the Board of Trustees that this special fee be discontinued beginning with the fall quarter 1971-72. I am proposing further to the Alumni Association that it consider a more direct student involvement in planning the alumni program and in expenditure of funds paid into the association from this fee, 3, The installation of suitable telephone facilities, The University last week requested Western Carolina Telephone Company to replace desk-type dormitory telephones with wall- mounted boothette telephones. It also has requested installation of additional pay telephones in dormitories, the University Center, and outside booths, I have by letter requested the Attorney General of North Carolina to assign or employ an attorney to investigate the service provided the University by the telephone company, and, if it becomes necessary, to prepare and file appropriate action against the company with the North Carolina State Utilities Commission, I have advised the chairman of the Commission and the president of the company of this request 4, The construction of new parking lots and the acceptance of the proposed ticket-fine system. Two new parking lots behind the Baptist Church were graded and graveled recently, and these and other lots will be paved If the General Assembly provides funds requested for the fiscal year starting July 1, 1969. An ad hoc committee with student-administration membership will be appointed this week to recommend location of other parking lots, and professional consultant assistance will be pro- vided if needed. The committee Is to complete its work by June 1, 1969, so that a parking lot plan will be ready when funds become available. The ticket-fine system proposed by the Safety and Security Committee is pending in the Faculty Senate for checking of details. When soon adopted, this plan will eliminate the undesirable requirement that fines must be paid before appeals can be taken. Until the Senate acts, I have directed that no person filing an appeal under the provisions of present policy be required to pay the fine before the outcome of the appeal. 5, Administrative enforcement of the revised attendance policy. One week prior to the beginning of Spring Quarter classes on March 24, 1969, a memorandum was issued by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs to all University schools requesting deans to inform department heads, faculties, staffs, and students of the new undergraduate class attendance policy. It was stated that this policy would "replace all existing regulations regarding undergraduate attendance." Upon receipt of student complaints last week, all schools again were instructed in a memorandum on April 18,1969, that "this new policy must be followed." I want to emphasize to all parties that a uniform, University-wide undergraduate class attendance policy is in effect Charges of disregard or violation of the policy should be specific and should be promptly made to the appropriate dean, ., _ _ Alex S.
