  • The Western Carolinian VOICE OF THE STUDENTS VOL. XXXVII, No. 28 Western Carolina University Tuesday, January 25, 1972 Cullowhee, N.C. Senate needs surgery: Lockamy SGA President Greg Lockamy told the Student Senate last night that it "fell flat on Its face and crushed its nose" in the last three months. Lockamy said that the Senate is not carrying its portion of the SGA burden and that without Executive Committee control this year, the Senate has made no "waves" on campus. He said the Senate has passed a few good proposals since September but they have not done a complete job. He noted the proposal .'instigated before Thanks givingto allow students to drop low grades by repeating a course and said that just when the administration was set to accept the proposition, the bill was rewritten so many times that it is unrecognizable and still has not been passed by the Senate. Lockamy said that there are much more important things that need to be worked on at this point. He stressed three major areas which he said needed immediate attention: residence hall living, academics and campus surroundings. A proposal is needed, he said, to "keep women from being persecuted" by the limiting hours for first and second quarter freshmen. Some women, he said are being sent to student courts for coming in as little as three minutes later than their regulating hours. He also expressed concern over the drop in enrollment here and said he felt that something is being done wrong or is not being done at all on this campus which caused students to drop out or to decide not to come to this university. Many student*, he said, are put off by the lack of guidelines for teachers and professors. Some students, he said, feel that they are not getting their money's worth from teachers who teach the way they want to and, hence, leave Western. Lockamy concluded that the Student Senate is "the most important branch of the Student Government Association" and that they "need to get moving" and propose amendments, make changes and present addendums to the University. Lit magazine begins preparations Preparations for the literary magazine, NOMAD have begun. The Scribbler's Club, and other students interested in working on the magazine met last Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m. The club's next meeting will be Tuesday, February 1 in the Faculty Lounge on the third floor of the University Center. The purpose of the meeting will be to begin publicity and set up deadline dates for entries in the NOMAD. Any students interested in helping prepare the NOMAD are urged to attend. sssssssfeW ,^3&>» Out-of-state fees APO actions lead fight ' ^^fr-^fc i PETER HACKES Peter Hackes speaks here tomorrow Peter Hackes, Washington correspondent for NBC news, will be on campus to speak and answer questions on the subject, "The World From Washington" in the Grand Room of the University Center on Wednesday, January 26 at 8:00. Mr, Hackes is seen frequently on "Meet The Press"andmany NBC News TV specials. On the radio- he reports regularly on "News on the Hour" and each weekend on "Monitor" in the feature "The World of Science". He was anchorman for "NBC World News Roundup" each morningfor four years and has also anchored several programs in the Peabody- Award-winning series, "Second Sunday". Alpha Phi Omega National Service Fraternity has launched a campaign to show the state legislature that the students of North Carolina are against the raise in out-of-state tuition. APO's first vice-president, Larry Arnold, said that he hopes the campaign will become statewide, first through APO chapters, then through other campus organizations. Arnold said that the WCU chapter, Pi Delta, had written area newspapers explaining the campaign. He told of plans to write the Greensboro DAILY NEWS and the Charlotte OBSERVER. "There has been a lot of controversy and talk, but no one has done anything," Arnold said about raise in out-of-state tuition. "We felt that as a service fraternity it was our job to initiate it." Members of the fraternity have been working closely with the Dean of Men, the Dean of Women, university attorney WUliam Scott, George Weekly of the Wesley Foundation and others in an attempt to gain support. They have also been working with the Student Government Association. APO plans to begin circulating copies of bill number 1087, the bill that will nearly double tuition for those not from North Carolina. Lists of names and addresses of North Carolina senators "and representatives will be made available and students will be urged to write the legisla- Major draft changes effective in February The Selective Service System released last week a list of proposed changes in their regulations which will affect young men facing the draft process in the future. The changes - which were first proposed to the public for review in early November and now are amended after further study-concern procedures for personal appearances and appeals, among other major subjects. The proposed changes, scheduled for publication in the FEDERAL REGISTER, are expected to become effective throughout the more than 4,000 local draft boards in mid-February. Until they become effective, Selective Service will continue its moratorium policy on aU personal appearances and appeal board actions. One of the major changes proposed today guarantees the registrant's right to request an appeal following an adverse decision at his personal appearance with his local board. Another proposed change allows a registrant who receives a long postponement of Induction to receive consideration from his local board for deferment and exemption requests, includinga claim for conscientious objec tor status. The revisions set a 15-day time limit in which a registrant must request a personal appearance or an appeal, but they permit the local board to grant an extension of this period when a registrant demonstrates that his failure to respond within the 15-day limit was due to reasons beyond his control. The policy proposal that a local board give a registrant at least 15 days notice of a pending personal appearance with the board, the state appeal board, or the Presidential appeal board, also was retained. Commenting on the 15-day time limit, Draft Director Curtis W. Tarr said: "Although we have shortened the time limit for personal appearances and appeal requests from a rigid non - extendable 30 days to a flexible 15 days, we also have added the requirement that local boards give registrants at least 15 days notice of pending appearances or actions. Thus, no local board or appeal board w&T be taking action in less time than has been required under the old regulations. Then, as now, at least 30 days will pass CONTINUED Page 4 .... tors, voicing disapproval. The fraternity will also begin passing petitions. Arnold said that there would be two petitions, one for signatures from out-of-state students, and one for signatures from North Carolinians. "It's those from North Carolina that will have to vote," Arnold said, "so we want to get signatures to show how they feel," The campaign Is being Initiated at WCU, he said, but APO members will be writing chapters of the fraternity at other campuses in the state, trying to gain active support for the move. Arnold said APO has already talked to a number of organizations on campus, and still had plans to contact the Inter- Fraternity Council and Panhellenic. Enrollment down from fall quarter Winter quarter on-campus enrollment at Western Carolina University totals 4,951 students, or 379 students fewer than the fall quarter enrollment, according to a report by Cecil Brooks, WCU dean of records and admission. This figure represents a decline of seven per cent from the fall quarter enrollment, but is still two percent higher than winter quarter of last year. A certain amount of attrition from fall to winter quarter is normal, Dean Brooks said. Last year, for example, there was a five percent decline in enrollment between fall and winter quarter totals. According to the report, freshmen and out-of-state students were the hardest hit. Freshman registrations dropped from "2,097 in the fall to 1,665 at present, and the number of out-of-state students dipped from 668 to 577, the lowest figure since spring quarter, 1969. The North Carolina General Assembly last year increased tuition rates for out-of-state students at all public institutions of higher education In the state. The changes In enrollment figures did not affect the male- female ratio, which* remained steady at 1.3 men to every woman. Admissions decline from last year The number of student applications received for admission to WCU next tall is down nearly 20 per cent from the number received at this time last year, according to a report issued by Cecil Brooks, dean of records and admissions. The report says that as of Jan. 15 this year 1,355 applications had been received by the Office of Admissions, compared with 1,664 applications which had been received by Jan. 15, 1971. This represents an 18.57 per cent decrease in the number of applications re ceived. Dean Brooks attributed the decline, at least in part, to' a $100 deposit now required of applicants within three weeks after their application is ac- ceptemo* The new deposit, approved last year by the General Assembly, applies to all public Institutions of higher education in the state. Even though the number of applicants is lower, the proportion of applications which have been accepted is running eight per cent above tills time last year.

A special student committee recommended that the symbol and nickname be dropped but a compromise was reached that called for the revised symbol and the establishment of an annual American Indian Heritage week. There are only 15 Indian students on the campus of 18,000 students. , VS
