  • THURSDAY MAY 22, 1975 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 Cotton sez! College is better than $12 a week After I graduated from high school in 1935, I turned down a good, steady, $12-a-week job in favor of going to college. It was the smartest thing I ever did. Over the years, I've parlayed that $12 a week into a prestigious university administrator's job, any number of honorariums from speaking at phoney World Food Crisis conferences, a $150,000 mansion, a solid gold, state-owned Chrysler with only one careful owner and less than 10,000 miles on the odometer, not to mention the trailer hitch; a boat, trailer, and boathouse down at Lake Glenville; and all the tax-free gas I can lay my hands on down at the pump in front of the steam plant. College opened up doors for me that otherwise would have stayed closed. Now it's my job to help other people float through the flood gate. At Western Caro- lina University we can open up new opportunities for you. That's why I'm here to tell you about Western's latest skam — uh ~ plan to help out young people. The WCU Summer Cretins Program is designed to lend a helping hand to those who would otherwise never be able to enter college. The theme of this year's course is, "Summer Cretins, Some're Not." What we do is to give you the skills you will need to scrape through McKelvin's Comp I with a "D-minus," or at least to make you look alert enough in class that he thinks you're getting "F" because you aren't doing your homework. Anyway, we'll be getting your tuition money for summer, fall and winter at least. The two courses offered this summer are Math 0001, Tentative Introduction to Basic 6th Grade Pre-Algebra, and English 0015, Introduction to Monosyllabic Syntax. You will be rubbing elbows with some of the finest minds on our faculty. In fact, we would even let them teach other courses if they would change their registration to Democratic. The Summer Cretins Program is no attempt at tokenism. WCU is- committed, through SCP, to take affirmative action to give our retarded citizens a real opportunity for a college education. There are just as many people below 100 as above 100. If you are going to be institutionalized, why not do so at our institution? Call or write our director of admissions (or have your nurse do so) and let him know what your interests are (if any). Tell him Cotton sentcha.
