Th& C_^nLiMJAM YOKE OF THE STI HIXTS VOL. XXXX No. 2 THURSDAY JUNE 27, 1974 WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA Two-year schools visit here today Sky City Discount String King, featuring (left to right) Eric Oisen, Bill Mclntire, Andy Cohen, and Allan Grant will play- July 4, from 4 to 7 p.m. on the UC lawn as part of the Independence Day Celebration, (photo by Steve Cook) Reynolds opens again Reynolds, the third oldest of the University's dorms, has a- gain come into the limelight, Last fall the dorm was closed during the regular academic year. Previously, married graduate students, along with some male graduates, had occupied Reynolds during the summer session. Rumors were spread that this summer session would see Scott as the graduate dorm. However, it seems that Reynolds has become the controversial topic as one of Cullowhee's first attempts at co-ed housing. The third floor of Reynolds has been designated for married graduate students. They occupy two adjoining suite rooms with a connecting bath. Second floor houses single female graduates, with third floor containing single males. When asked why Reynolds had been chosen for graduates, housing director Tyler Combs stated that Reynolds had been selected for its seclusion and quiet, which was desired by the graduate students. Another controversy has a- risen over the condition of Reynolds. Due to its lack of use during the regular academic year, all phones and much of the furniture had been removed from the hall. The facilities in the dorm are in a run-down condition and are quite a nuisance to many of the residents. The major gripe about the dorm is the absence of hall phones. This is a real problem to many of the residents who need to keep up buisness relations and other important ties. Also in case of a family emergency there is no way of getting in touch with residents except through the one phone in the office, which because of isolation, is almost of no value. When questioned on the matter Combs said that he had contacted the phone company but that there was a Turn To Page 2 Western Carolina University is hosting a Community College-Technical Institute Conference designed to explore common interests and problems of two-year and four-year institutions on campus today. Twenty-two community colleges and technical institutes from the Piedmont and Western North Carolina have been invited to the session. The conference is the culmination of visits made by a WCU team during the last three months to determine ways in which cooperative programs can be developed, and processes for transfer of credit by students in community colleges and technical institutes to senior colleges can be improved. Also, representatives have been invited from the University of North Carolina at Asheville, Appalachian State University, the North Carolina Department of Community Colleges, and the North Carolina Board of Education. The conference begins at 2 p.m. in the Cherokee Room of the A. K. Hinds University Center with keynote remarks by Dr. H. F. Robinson, WCl; chancellor. Frank H, Brown, vice chancellor for development and extended services, will speak, and Dr. J. Stuart Wilson, vice chancellor for academic affairs, will discuss cooperative program development. A presentation on expanding the WCU cooperative effort and on problems of transfer students will be made by Dr. Lawrence Arney, assistant dean WCU issues affirmative action plan Western Carolina University has submitted a 109-page affirmative action plan to the U. S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The plan outlines steps the university plans to make sure equal employment opportunities are available to all persons regardless of race or sex. In the document's foreword, then-acting Chancellor Frank H. Brown, Jr. wrote, "the U- niversity is committed to the goal of achieving equal employment opportunity for all qualified persons without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." While trying to eliminate dis-, crimination against women and minority groups, the University would still "seek the best qualified person to fill a vacancy." The document ruled out giving preferential consideration to women or minorities. However, the document does state the university would seek a "balanced" work force with regard to sex and race. To implement the policy a special "Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action Officer" has been named. He is Dr. Aaron Hyatt, currently director of institutional research. Hyatt was chairman of the committee which wrote the document. Other members included Marilyn Jody, Barbara Mann, Yvonne Phillips, J.Stuart Wilson, Jim Holland and Bill Scott. Hyatt, yesterday had no predictions on whether the new document would be approved. He said only three plans had been approved of the nation's colleges and universities. AU institutions receiving in excess of ten thousand dollars must compile an affirmative action plan. Western last year received more than $700,000 in federal aid. Only Harvard, MIT and Florida State University's plans have been approved, according to Hyatt. Western's plan calls for increased hiring of blacks and women faculty members. By 1976, the document states that Western hopes to increase its number of white women faculty from 54 to 86. Also, three black male professors and three black women professors are to be added. All departments of the university were reviewed, and all except physics and law were rated as "under-utilizing" either women, blacks or both. To get women or minority- professors, vacancies will have to be made either through retirement or current professors resigning or leaving the university. Hyatt said the chances of reaching the goal for 32 more AARON HYATT women faculty members was "pretty good." He said the University had problems recruiting black professors due to the lack of a black community in Cullowhee. The affirmative action plan applies to all university employees, faculty and non- faculty. Some of the plans for enforcing the plan include establishing a faculty exchange program with black institutions, picturing women and minority groups in university publications, and publicizing the achievements of minority employees and women in local news media. The WCU document lists salaries of male faculty and compares them with female faculty- salaries. A significant difference was established. The average salary for male instructor-level faculty is $9,414 while the female average is $9,140 ~ a $612 difference. The difference in average salaries on the assistant level was $1,122 with men earning more than women again. The difference on the associate professor level was $1,894. of the graduate school and coordinator of WCU's cooperative program. Arney, who coordinated the visits of WCl' officials to the two-year schools, said yesterday that the visits were made to find out how Western could better serve the region. According to Arney, the schools visited were receiving about the same number of students from Western as WCU Turn To Page 3 Jakes is chancellor assistant WCl Chancellor Harold F. Robinson has named Mrs. Colleen Jakes as his assistant. Mrs. Jakes came to Western Carolina with Robinson from Purdue University where he was provost. Jakes has worked with Robinson for the past 21 years. She was his secretary first when he was a professor at N. C. State University and has worked with him continually since then. in 1968 she went with Robinson as his assistant to Georgia where he was vice chancellor of the state higher education system. Also, in 1971 she moved again with Robinson to Purdue. At Western, Jakes will assume some of the responsi- vilities of the vice chancellor for administration but not under that title. The former administration vice chancellor was Frank H, Brown, Jr., who has been given a new assignment as vice chancellor for development and extended services. The position of vice chancellor for administration is being discontinued. Jakes declined to be considered as Robinson's personal "Rosemary Woods," saying she didn't handle tape recorders. However, she said she did work very closely with the chancellor and managed most of the small detail work as well as helping with research and speech writing. She has one son, Victor, 24; and two daughters, Bridget, 23, and Janet, 13. She was widowed while she lived in Raleigh, and has recently married Robert N. Jakes, who moved with her from Purdue and is employed at Enka, Inc. Mrs. Jakes is a fishing and hunting enthusiast. She is a proficient trap shooter as well as a golfer. The 46-year-old native of Indiana moved to North Carolina when she was 12 and lived here until moving with Robinson to Georgia.
