  • CrUieal two months Wary of politicking: Lockamy B> W. WAT HOPKINS Editor-in-Chief (EDITOR'S NOTE: The following story was run in Wednesday's WESTERN CAROUN •AN. A mix-up in printing, though, after the dummy sheets left our offices resulted in the exclusion of the second half of the article. For this reason, we are reprinting the article today in its entirity.) i>ome administrators, both university and student, feel that the next few months at Western Carolina University are going 10 be very important in determining the future of the school, It is felt that Winter Quarter could plot the future course of the university; whether it continues to progress, stops in its tracks, or goes into reverse. The anxiety is due to the absence of Dr. Alex Pow, who lb still recover ing from a stroke in Birmingham, Alabama, and because of what is currently happening at the university. What has happened, according to Student Body President Greg Lockamy, is that all progress, everything short of the barest mechanical duties, has stopped, and that politics has taken over on the campus. He said that some administrators, "don't want to act, are scared to act or don't know how to act," on issues of importance, Others, he reported, are playing political power games. In a speech prepared for the Board of Trustees, Student Body President Lockamy said, "Progress has stopped." Later in the speech he said "It's just that as we sit stagnately, day by day, in limbo, it hurts me to stand by and watch what he has done being slowly eaten away by a few... ." Vice President for Student Development Herb Reinhard said he had heard nothing he could comment about concerning the politics Lockamy was referring to, but agreed that the next few weeks are important ones for Western. ' 'I. .feel," said Dr. Reinhard, "that the next several months will be a crucial period for the university in that a number of important decisions must be made and certainly I would hope that President Pow would be here to give insight and his leadership to the decisions." Dr. Reinhard also said, "I feel it is greatly important that Dr. Pow return to Western Carolina I'niversity as soon a». he is physically able to do so, I believe personally that this institution needs his strong leadership and effective administration as well as his keen desire to continue the programs that he has started,'' In his speech Lockamy said that he was very concerned especially because of "politicking" that has begun since the President has been hospitalized " The factions have chosen up sides. . ," he said In an interview, I.ockamy said "There are certain elements of the university that don't have the welfare of the university at heart, but would just like to see themselves in the presidential seat," Lockamy reported that he had information concerning a group at the university that had begun a power play to push one of its members for appointment to the office of president. He- would not release any names or information for publication. He reported, though, that even If Presiden Pow was not to re turn to Western Carolina, the faction he was alluding to would return the university to the Dark Ages. ". . , Each of us. . . knows what kind of man Alex Pow is," Lockamy told the board. "We know he is a mover, he has a goal for this institution, he has made progress a reality from a seemingly hopeless situation Dr. Pow, Lockamy said, cannot be replaced, Lockamy's speech to the board was an attempt to push the board to some type of action; in learning the President's condition, appointing an acting president uiiil Dr, How can return, and in doing so, getting the university back into fore- ward motion. The speech probably had a good deal to do with the Board's decision to send representatives to Birmingham to visit with the President and his family and to learn all they can from his doctors. The trip was originally scheduled for early January, but has been rescheduled for later in the month. Lockamy is still concerned about the next few weeks, though, and is determined to try to stop those having ''secret meetings" from gaining more power.
