When asked about student conduct during the raid Robinson said, "I think that the students conducted themselves very well." At press time, students were again conducting themselves "very well." A group of Leatherwood men were in the process of raiding Scott Thursday morning, in protest of Robinson's alleged actions Wednesday morning. 'Viral thing' infests WCU Each fall the predominant sounds in classrooms at WCU are coughs, sniffles, and sneezes. The busiest place on campus becomes Graham Infirmary, where little green pills and nose spray abound, Graham Infirmary Director, Dr. Hugh A, Matthews, said that "around two hundred students a day for the last two weeks" have the symptoms of a "viral thing." Matthews continued to say that the symptoms usually include run~ ning nose, sore throat, coughing, and headache. Occasionally, he said, the same virus produces symptoms of nausea and diarrhea. Matthews said that he is not prescribing any penicillin or micen drugs because they can affect bodily functions other than those infected with the virus. Instead his office is handing out antihistimines, decongestants, cough syrup, nose spray, and is highly recommending asprin. Matthews concluded by saying that the best thing to do if one has the latest "viral thing" is to wait it out for a couple of days. Letter Dear Editor: Let me preface this letter by stating that in the last two days I have received three parking tickets. While I was in violation of regulations, I nonetheless became interested in finding the source of the campus patrol's unending vigilance. I found a significant - although hardly surprising,situation. In the true spirit of American Conflicts-of-Interest I discovered that the salaries of security personnel are paid by the revenues generated by parking tickets. While this is a more than adequate system for insuring high productivity , it seems to represent a violation of basic justice. At any rate, if this is the way things must operate perhaps administration salaries should be paid out of late fees. Wally Grotophorst Yes, it seems that it has rolled around to panty- raid season again. It cannot go without comment however, the handling of the situation Wednesday morning. First of all, the point is not how childish or enjoyable panty and jock raids are, but rather how childish it is for administrators to act as if the raids are major catastrophes. Robinson himself admitted "that they have happened before and they will happen again." It makes one wonder why then did he himself come to the scene to stop the event. It seems reasonable to assume that if panty raids ARE so common to universities, and are ignored, then the chances of the event becoming large scale are reduced considerably. Chancellor Robinson's presence only served to prompt the situation on, seemingly resulting in another raid Wednesday night. Secondly, there seems to be a large discrepancy between what witnesses report and what Dr. Robinson reports. If in fact Chancellor Robinson was' 'mooned" and his car top beat on, one wonders why Robinson reported that "the students conducted themselves very well.'' We cannot knowingly accept that activities such as the above are examples of good conduct. If administrators cannot realize the normalcy of a panty raid and their blunder by trying to cover the fact and treating the students are guardians, then how can we expect to trust them with our education during calmer times?
