  • Tfe QaitjoLiMiaM VOU E OF THE STI IHXTS VOU. XXXIX NO. 53 THURSDAY APRIL 25, 1974 WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA Court rejects candidate's pleas In a 5-0 decision the student supreme court said Tuesday night the student senate acted constitutionally in taking Wardell Townsend's name off the ballot of the SGA presidential election last week. The senate based its action on Townsend's failure to meet the qualifications for candidacy sine he was not a full- time student fall quarter. Townsend had filed suit against the senate and the senate's election committee charging that it could not take his name off the ballot. To be a qualified candidate, a student must have been a full-time enrolled student for three quarters prior to the election. To be considered "full-time" a student must complete 12 credit hours each quarter. Townsend said he registered for 14 hours in fall quarter, but withdrew from a four-hour course near the end of the quarter. Townsend contended in court that since he received no refund when he withdrew from the course he was still a full-time student. In the decision handed down by Chief Justice David Fowler, the high court said ''the student senate acted within their constitutional rights in the denial of Mr. Townsend a place on the presidential ballot." The five other justices ruling on the case were Warren Webb, Karen Moore, Ron Rhodes, Ray Stewart, and John Hyatt. Robert Johnson, Townsend's student attorney, told the court Tuesday night that being a candidate for student body president was a "privilege that is bought by the payment of fees." He said since Townsend had paid his fees he should be allowed on the ballot regardless of the number of hours he completed. However, Attorney General Hal Harrison, who defended the senate, said it was clear Town- send was not a full-time student and the senate's action was legal. Harrison cited the SGA constitution statingthe "senate was the judge of the elections." Johnston countered that eight dollars of a student's fees went to SGA. If he were part-time, the money should have been returned to Townsend when he withdrew from the course, Johnson said. He said Townsend received no money back from SGA so it must have considered him a full-time student. Yesterday Student Body- President Harold Rogers said Townsend had told no one he had been a part-time student fall quarter. Rogers said if he had known about Townsend's withdrawal he would have made him resign and turn over his .$250 stipend. Both Townsend and the Attorney General asked for a court opinion on full-time status for future use. Chief Justice Fowler emphasized that the definition of full-time student was not the basis of the decision. The only question Townsend Board to reverse Four terminations has asked was wnether the senate's action was constitutional, Fowler said. To be considered a full-time student, the court said, "the student must register for 12 or more quarter hours and maintain 12 or more quarter hours throughout the quarter in order to be considered a full-time student. "AH courses in the Western Ca -olina Record are included. Graduate students in Arts and Sciences are considered full- time students if they are carrying nine or more quarter hours. "Graduate students in the M,B.A0 program are considered full-time students if they carry eight or more quarter hours. This definition shall serve as precedence in the future." Four of the eight faculty members appealing tenure decisions were informed yesterday that the previous decision to terminate their employment will be reconsideredbythe WCU Bofcrd of Trustees on May 10. James Kasprzak of the English Department, Joseph W. Dodson aid Jack C, Sharp of the Mj.:h Department, and Blaine Eldrige of the Art Department, received letters from Acting Chancellor Frank Brown stating that the hearing committee of the Board of Trustees intends to recommend to the full board "that the previous decision to terminate employment be reversed " If the trustees accept the recommendation of the special tenure appeals committee, the matter will go to the UNC Board of Governors for final action. Whether a reversal of the decision to terminate employ- SGA run off Scheduled For today Run-offs for student body president and vice president will be today from 9 am until 6 pm in front of the University Center. Donna Clemmer and Jim Davidson are on the ballot for president. Charles Mackie and Roland Johnson will both be attempting to win the vice presidential race;. Both contests were thrown into a run-off when no candidate received a majority of the votes cast last week. Yesterday current Student Body President Harold Rogers commended the students for the heavy turn-out last week. ment would mean tenure or a one-year contract for these four persons will be decided by the Board of T-ustees, According to the Facul.y-Administration Handbook, after the fifth year, a faculty member is either dismissed or granted :enure. Kasprzak, Didson, Sharp and Eldrige are ill now i>i their fifth year. University attorney William E, Scott, who worked with the committee, said he was not sure how the board would act if it decides to accept the recommendation. However, he said "there was no mention of defect" during his work with the committee, The special committee was made up of trustees Hugh E, Gentry, John Gloyne and Hazen Ledford, The four who received the notices of possible reversal of termination took the news with a grain of salt. Eldrige said he was "pleasantly surprised" but he expressed reservations about the hope of tenure. Sharp said he would "wait and see," and the others showed similar sentiments. The other professors who appealed their tenure cases, Alan Grant and Newton Smith in Eng<» lish, Andrzej Weilhorski in Art and Merlin Berry in History, were notified yesterday -hat the previous decisions would be upheld. Except for Weilhorski, who has a terminal contract for next year, this means termination in June,, . Grant, Smith and Weilhorski plan to continue their appeals. Weilhorski said he was "in shock" about the actims of the committee. He feels his was a case of "overt discrimination," and will appeal further. Grant and Smith said they would pursue their cases "al! the way" with the backing of the teachers union,, The Broadway hit musical, "Man of Li vlircaha,' ^ud'torium.
