  • Page 20 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Tuesday. September 22, 1970 Carolinian offers awards for writing and reporting In an attempt to improve the quality of writing it publishes, as well as encourage those interested in journalism to write for their student newspaper, the WESTERN CAROLINIAN at the end of the 1970-71 academic year will 1970-1971 academic year will make several awards to those students who have made outstanding contributions to the paper. Four awards of $25 each will be awarded for stories and re" porters at the annual WESTERN CAROLINIAN banquet atthe end of Spring Quarter. Areas of competition will be Best News Story, Best Feature Story, Best Sports Story and Best Reporter. News and sports stories must be assigned to the reporter by the editors, but feature stories may be free-lance and sub mitted for publication no later than three p.m. the day before the newspaper is distributed. The Best News Story will be judged on basis of correct news- writing form, accuracy of information and originality. The only rules governing the judging of the Best Feature Story are originality, readability, and quality of interest aroused. Topics for feature stor- ■ ies are endless. They range from profiles on interesting person aliti4s personalities, to historical sites of Interest In the area, and any of numerous other subjects. The Best Feature Story will also be judged on the basis of the quality of writing, tonei style, etc. The Best Sports Story will be judged much as the Best Feature Story. Included, though, will be the amount oi date given and how it is developed. A story giving detailed play by play with many names and facts and figures will quickly be eliminated. The Best Reporter will be judged on consistency, dependability, punctuality in meeting deadlines, quality of writing, interest In Improving the growing Voice of the Students, and Interest In covering news stories. Other than the editorial staff, all writers and reporters for the WESTERN CAROLINIAN are eligible and are encouraged to do their best possible writing. Also, freshmen and upperclassmen who have never writ ten for the WESTERN CAROL INIAN and are interested are encouraged to attend the first staff meeting on September 24 at 8 p.m. Registration dog who chased cars at the stop light finally quit hanging around. But behind the vacant classrooms and walkways there has been a vast amount of activity, for it is during the summer months and the break before Fall Quarter that the university is able to concentrate aU its efforts In improving, building and preparing for the next year. Mistakes of the past year are faced and corrected. The desires and needs of the students, so vividly expressed in this newspaper, become reality: new parking facilities, a new drive around the High Rise dorm, new tennis courts, repaired drives, new signs, more professors, and last but not least, an Improved re- giastration system. I needn't say that new problems and snags will replace the old dilemas, but I firmly believe and trust that with eacn change there is improvement I've been a student worker in the Registrar's Office for the past year. During this time I have been able to observe and work with the personnel who manage and work behind the doors of the Registration Office. It is here that the university life of all students begins and ends. .FROM Page 10 It Is from this office that a student's initial efforts are acknowledged and where diplomas are issued. Usually the diploma is just the beginning. Trasactions and the issuing of transcripts continue with former students who graduated as early as 1935. The Registrar's sphere of responsibility reaches from the time of the university conception to the next day on the calendar to the next year and another registration. When a job Is completed, It is nice to relax and say "it's finished." The word "finished" does not enter the vocabulary of those who work behind the door marked "Regis= trar." When the last grade label is posted from the previous quarter the master time schedules for the next quarter are being printed and must be collated. The number of indlv idual copies of registration material alone could easily send a student through a year of school and more. Often the student feels that he is neglected and treated with indifference when faced for three days with a registration system designed to accomodate over five-thousand people. But I would like to remind each and every student that when registration is in its plan nlng stages that its very conception is based on how well it serves the Individual. For example, how should the material be worded for more simplicity and clarity, where is the best location for easy access and comfort, which methods of registration take the least time and effort, how should the material be printed on the page for easy reading and handling? Often the work load for administrative personnel Is not considered. Only that which makes it easier for the student has priority. Three other student workers and I can bear witness to this. We've printed and collated over 300,000 copies of material in the past seven days. These were available to the students Monday and probably all have been discarded by now. By the time you read this article I sincerely hope that each and every student has found a seat in the course of Ms choice. To the entering Freshmen who are now perhaps bewildered but relieved, I welcome you to Western Carolina and congratulate you for defeating the dreaded beast called registration. We at the Registrar's Office do not smile a great deal because we are too busy worring about the next quarter. But rest assured that we are always willing to reduce the big problems to small ones.
