  • THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN TUESDAY JANUARY 21,1975 Since you asked Since some of our readers have been wanting to know our view on the women's movement, here it is: We're for it. Emancipation of women from the distorted mental projections which set them as something less than equal to the opposite sex is something that is necessary for a satisfactory life for both sexes. Adoption of a constitutional amendment to that effect will not accomplish that though it might serve as a touchstone for the attempt. Emancipation will come partially through changed attitudes which laws don't necessarily affect. But even changed attitudes is not the final answer. In our opinion, it is for each individual—male or female—to throw off that person's own mental or physical entrapments that prevent a full expression of his-her self and personality and acceptance of other humans for their individual merit. While a united women's effort may give strength to those reluctant to be themselves, the final product is an individual better able to deal with her environment—not the formation of a block of think-alike women. Concerning the now-controversial Hamilton review of last week, it is our policy to publish responsible opinions whenever we receive them. The opinions may not correspond with ours — or yours — but that's not a requirement for them to be printed in these pages. Finally, we urge our readers to attend at least one of the women's study classes held every Wednesday night in Hoey 108. Form your own opinion. Random thoughts e While Hardees' new free ride service might ferry a few students to and from the eatery every day, we had rather see the restaurant sell the bus and lower the price of their food with the profit. • If WCU changed coaches often enough, it might never lose a basketball game. That seems to be a valid conclusion after watching the Cats snap out of a four-game string of defeats under Jim Hartbarger to take two wins and just miss defeating highly touted UT-Chattanooga under new coach Fred Conley. • The student senate made an excellent recommendation last night that the university buy braille textbooks for the WCU blind students. WCU conducts an "Early Bird" program each summer especially for blind students learning to adjust to a campus. Many of them then choose to stay here. As a result, WCU has about the largest blind student population in the state. Currently, they must find someone to tape record chapters out of the books so they can get the information. The braille books would be a great help. Th& \WE5TE-fAl Qai^oLiMiaM Published twice weekly through the academic year and weekly during the summer by the students of Western Carolina University.

Subscription rates, $4.00 per year. Today's letters: Women sound off hanks Thank you for publishing Lisa Hamilton's article on the first Woman's Studies Meeting ("The Lord may be a woman", Jan. 14). What the feminist movement needs are more well conceived thoughtful criticisms like hers. Since the rights of women are important to me, it always makes me feel great to find someone who can give an empathic voice to my concerns. I found her comments on the weather most pertinent, although it was also essential to know how everyone was dressed. I only wish she had told more about getting people like Dennis McKevlin to take issues of 'woman's lib' more seriously. Lou Brock once said that dealing with racism in Major League Baseball was liKe "fighting a wall of mushroom soup". Women involved in the search for equality often have the same experience. I think Lisa may have gotten a glimpse of the problem; but she fell into the soup. Seven more seminars are scheduled. The list of speakers promises anyone who attends that she/he will go home with more than cold, soggy shoes. Ann Gray Webster Be serious Dear Editor: Since we've read the sensationally titled and facetiously written article on the Women's Studies Course, could we now have a serious review of the course? I was not able to attend the class discussed, but I do know some of the women on the panel. I have talked with those who planned and developed the course. These are people who are seriously interested in providing an opportunity for discussions focused on helping all of us understand ourselves and others. This article was a typical put-down of a subject which is threatening and frightening to many - men and women. So let's see a serious review of the course which would include positive aspects and the valid criticisms. Dr. Marjorie Baker Head, Department of Nursing where you stand . feminism. Sincerely, Veronica Nicholas against Ouch Dear Editor, I believe you did a disservice to Women's Studies by publishing Lisa Hamilton's feature "The Lord may be a woman" last Tuesday without including in your Editor's Note the fact that her story was written as fullfillment for Dr. Hal Farwell's class in Advanced composition; that her attendance was required at that first meeting; and that her assignment was to do a feature article without editorializing. I understand there were two papers submitted to you which were very objective and factually correct as well (Ms. Hamilton erred in many places i.e. there were 60 people present, not 25 or 30; the name is Judy Coyle, not Judy Cope.) I feel that you used very poor judgement in choosing such a biased feature, and running it without explanation. . .1 don't know you, but from your choice of articles, I think I know Disappointed Dear Editor: The article that appeared in the Western Carolinian on January 14, "The Lord May be a Woman," is an excellent example of why people in the women's movement are frequently accused of having no sense of humor. I, for one, have very little left in the face of irresponsible slurs like those in that article. The Women's Studies course is a serious and legitimate attempt to create an interdisciplinary approach to a broad human concept, and it's unfortunate that it got such biased press after its first meeting this year. Bias in either direction is counterproductive in consideration of complicated social concepts. There are certainly valid criticisms to be made about the course in general and about the first meeting in particular, but Lisa Hamilton neglected to separate what she thought a- bout the course objectively from what she felt. Her article undoubtedly had a detrimental effect since the attendance for the second meeting was about half what it had been for the first. My first feeling in reading Hamilton's article was that she was introducing her subjective reactions as though they were facts. It's unfortunate that we've all been trained to think that we need to justify out feelings by presenting them as facts. Hamilton's comments that "of the 15 to 30 women present, perhaps 15 were slop- Please turn to PAGE 5
