  • I * THE wESTKRN C )LI\IA.N January M Editorial Comment THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Editorials are from the Editor's desk unless otherwise indicated by the author's initials. Opinions expressed by the columnists do not necessarily reflect those of the newspaper, Address correspondence to P. 0. Box 66, Cullowhee, N. C. 28723. Fires aren't that simple WCU finally has a firetruck, but fortunately there has not been a fire since it arrived. If there had been one, there would have had to have been some very quick decisions made. No one yet knows which fires will be put out and which fires will be deemed "not authorized." In cities, the problem is relatively simple. City-owned fire trucks operate within the limits of the city. Occasionally , when a fire department operates outside the well-defined limits of the city, a fee is charged for their services, for these residents pay none of the city taxes which support the fire department. Here, at WCU, the problem is a little more Icomplex. We have the only fire truck south of Sylva for many miles. Should our fire dept. operate solely within the limits of WCU's campus? Or could the limits of operation be extended to the area of Cullowhee Bridge, outlying trailer parks, or even East Laport? Is the fire truck to be used for protection of the campus or for protection of students, faculty and staff? They arent the same thing. The university becomes somewhat more than a university when one realizes the setting. With no city to help support it, many of the basic services one comes to depend on in a metropolitan area either are supplied by WCU or they are not supplied at all* WCU sells electricity to hundreds of area residents who live outside limits of the campus. WCU also sells water to residents of Cullowhee who do not attend or work for WCU. The university has taken interest in and is supporting a more sanitary garbage disposal system, not only for the school, but for the area. There are people in the region who benefit from entertainment and recreation that would not exist if WCU weren't here. But how about Fire Protection? We can't imagine a fire department policy that limits itself to the campus proper. Obviously, WCU fire department cannot answer calls ten miles away and no one will expect them to, but residents of the immediate and perhaps not-so-immediate area should be covered. A committee from WCU will meet this week with fire department officials in Sylva to formulate guidelines for the new WCU fire department. We hope some sort of "Good Neighbor" procedure is established now at the very beginning. This is an important step not only for WCU, but for Cullowhee as a whole. Can we afford Chicago? Top name entertainment in WCU is going on the line. In several recent polls, WCU students have indicated that they would prefer to pay standard prices and have big-name entertainment rather than less popular groups at a nominal fee. The time has come to put money where our mouths are. CHICAGO, perhaps the third most popular group in the United States, has been booked for WCU. This wasn't easy. CHICAGO is used to getting top prices, such as the $30,000 to $35,000 they wiU make when they appear at Clemson next week. Top prices are made only when a facility which seats a great number of people is available, such as Clemson: 12,500 capacity coliseum. So, as is evident with WCU's 5,000 (packed) capacity Reid Gym, standard prices will have to be charged in order to get a crack at CHICAGO. If CHICAGO'S concert is a success, then there will be more, if not, then obviously, WCU cannot afford the likes of CHICAGO. The verdict lies with us. STROLLINGS Guess who's back I've got that feeling again. It began last Monday when I arrived in Cullowhee after a long, luxurious vacation. It was one of those vacations that you recuperate during. You almost get bored, but not quite. It was probably the best vacation I've spent in three years of vacationing from WCU. Then a friend of mine went back to school at Appalachian and I had to spend a Sunday by myself. So being the exuberant young man I am, I decided to return to school early to go through drop-add (or schedule-adjustment day as it is humorously referred to). It was two days before classes started so I wasn't worried. An hour at the most and I would have dropped a two-hour course, picked up a three-hour course, be on my way to having three more required English courses under study, and all would be well. I could concentrate on rewriting a short story, or begin working on the CARDLINLAN, or read some, Just get ready for classes to start. I hit Cullowhee after four and half hours on the road, and that's when I began to get the feeling. The first news I heard upon arriving was that the pipes in the Lambda Chi Alpha house had busted 0 know that's bad grammar, but w.'tata ya want good grammar or a fresh style). After the pipes had been drained more water seeped down into the mountain and the result was no pipes. That's okay, I thought, I knew where I could take a bath when I needed to, so I mosied up the hill to the University Center. No drop- add. I couldn't find my advisor to get his okay before the line closed. Even if I already had his okay, I wouldn't be able to make it through the line. That's okay, I thought I can get done what I need to get done tomorrow. I'll just loaf around today, see some people I haven't seen, and go tli rough the red tape tomorrow. Tuesday. The first thing I hear (after standing in line for half an hour) is that drop- add has been post-poned until 12 noon. Okay. At 12 noon I'm back, hearing that it has been rescheduled for 3 p.m. They used a different word every time. At 3 p.m. the friendly announcer said come back tomorrow at 10 a.m. I had a class at 10 a.m. I decided to wait until 11. By W. Wat Hopkins I went to a friend's to take a bath and save the rest of the afternoon by watching STAR TREK. STAR TREK had been replaced by ANOTHER WORLD, SOMERSET. I almost cried. Wednesday, reft a.m. 1 decided to cut "History of the English Language" in order to sign up for "American Lit since 1855." I made it through by eleven, and found out later that Dr. St Clair had already assigned a test and no one knew on what Time to buckle down. 1 buckled. In the American Lit course I goose-egged the first pop test because I misread the assignment I found out what the first test in the English course was and nearly had an internal hemtn- orage. Then things started to get bad. The one and only letter to the editor Tuesday was from one Allen H. Freeman Jr., who, to make a long story short, thought the Stroller's Christmas column stunk. "Here stroller who never gets any mail," the editor said, handing me the letter, " read this." The Stroller asked for mail. The Stroller got mail. Boy did the Stroller get mail. The thing to do, the Stroller decided, was to forget about the past and start over. With an editorial. So an editorial was written. And David Huskins spent half an hour telling me how much my editorial frustrated him. I began to sob uncontrollably. And to see a 20-year-old stroller sob is a pityful sight Pit=y~ful. Then came the grand finale. Wednesday I was cornered bv Robert Parr who went to lengths explaining to me in detail a letter he wrote to the editor criticizing the fail yuarter WESTERN CAROLINIAN. i couldn't sob again. People were watching. So I've got that feeling again. That helpless, bogged down feeling. That feeling that somebody's out to get me. But the truth is that it's just a new quarter. Oh boy is it a new quarter. (Write THE STROLLER, care of this newspaper)
