  • Voice of the Students VOL. XLI No. 21 1 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1975 WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA Preparing for change-overs Guidelines for semester plan Moves toward conversion to the semester system in the fall of 1977 are proceeding on schedule and students are reminded of the plans as they begin early registration this week for winter quarter. Students are urged to consult carefully with academic advisers as they plan courses of study that will extend into the semester system. By careful scheduling of their courses for the remainder of this academic year and for the 1976-77 academic year, they may be able to minimize the conversion impact. Advisers are also being urged to consider the scheduling of students now with the advent of the semester system in mind. Progress of the semester conversion steering committee (the old Academ.'c Affairs Committee) was reported to the Faculty Senate last week by Dr, Robert E, Stoltz, vice chancellor for academic affairs and chairman of the committee, and the proposed semester CAUndar for 1977-78 was presented to the Senate "for information," The Senate approved the calendar for the last year on the quarter system (1976-77) and for the 1977 summer school, which also will operate on the quarter system. In the package of informational materials given to the Senate on the semester system were also a proposed 1978 summer calendar, university-wide guidelines for general education on the semester plan, the proposed course numbering system for the semester system, university-wide guidelines for majors, minors, and total hours for degrees on the semester system, and a proposed addition of the incomplete grade policy, GENERAL EDUCATION Western Carolina University is devoted to the concepts of liberal education. All baccalureate degree programs include studies in General Education designed to develop within each student: a high degree of skill in the arts and mechanics of reasoning, critical thinking, and effective oral and written expression; an appreciation and understanding of our rich cultural heritage and the complexities of human relationships; traits of mind and spirit which reflect sound insights into himself and the physical and social world in which he lives; and a system of values essential for intelligent and discerning judgment;-, and decision. It is believed that (ieneralEducation not only contributes to these basic objectives, but that it serves to integrate the total undergraduate experience. General Education is not separated either philosophically or administratively from the various undergraduate programs. Although it is designed by the individual schools of the University to serve as a foundation for professional competencies or mastery of a specific discipline, it is also intended to complenemt patterns of course work prescribed for degrees and majors through appropriate scheduling within the four year program. General Education requirements are developed within broad University-wide guidelines, and are intended to promote optimum student achievement in chosen areas of interest. The framework within which the requirements are applied provides for extensive individual differences among students and for diverse and distinctive programs of study. GUIDELINES FOR GENERAL EDUCATION Total requirements and certain specific General Education requirements vary among degrees and majors and are outlined in the curricular offerings of the various schools of the University, All programs, in- clide the minimum hours indicated in the University Guidelines for General Education, 1. Students are not limited to the minimum hours listed, but at least forty percent of the minimum requirements for a baccalaureate degree must be from General Education Areas listed in Guideline 2. TURN TO PAGE 2 Gay receives fractured back in eight- story fall It has been discovered that Lutisha Gay, who is in Memorial Mission Hospital in Asheville as the result of an eight-story fall she took from Scott Dorm« itory on October 29, has a fractured sacroiliac in addition to her other injuries. The broken back does not seem to have caused Gay any spinal or nervous system damage. The fractured back was o- verlooked earlier because during that critical first week all that her doctor, D,% Hender-- son, could concern himself with was her survival. Now that Gay is out of immadiate danger, doctors can administer therapy to her. Ms. Rochelle Gay, mother of the injured student, reported that Gay is making a remark- Chamber orchestra to perform tonight Under the direction of Dr, Jacques Brourman, J J< the Charlotte Chamber Orchestra will present a con cert of Milhaud, Haydn, Ravel and Hindemith tonight jjj in Hoey Auditorium. jf Sponsored by LCE, the program will feature Mil- g haud's "Creations Du Monde," Haydn's Symphony No. » 57 in D Major, Ravel's "Mother Goose" Suite and ,{ Hindemith's Kammermusik No, 1. 8 The Charlotte Chamber Orchestra was founded in 1971 by Dr, Brourman, who is also conductor of the » Charlotte Symphony, The Chamber Orchestra is sup ported, in part, by a grant from the National En- n dowment for the Arts in Washington, D.C, >\ Beginning at 8:15 p.m„, the performance is free >) to WCU students and LCE subscription series members, >) $3 for other adults, and $1.50 for children. able recovery. Gay has recently been moved into a regular private room of the hospital from the intensive care ward bed that she occupied until this week-end. Gay is taking all food orally, is reading books and magazines, and seems in a very healthy mental state, according to her mother. The elder Gay told the Carolinian that Dr. Henderson said that her daughter will possibly be able to leave the hospital by the end of this week. At home in Zebu Ion, Gay- will receive out patient care and therapy for her broken bones. The doctor reportedly estimated that Gay might be able to walk on crutches for short periods of time three weeks after she returns home. Gay's mother said that it is all a matter of rehabilitation now. Pritchard Smith, head of WCU Traffic and Security, which with the SBI is Investigating the fall, reported that his investigation is all but complete. The only matter yet to be conclusively looked into is the possibilitythatGaymixed some of her prescribed quaa- ludes with the beer she was drinking that night. Smith said that the results from blood tests run on Gay should be available sometime this week. Little gymnast betters her balancing bar skills here with Ron Morrow's help. See story, page 2.

Any inquiries concerning Title IX should be referred to Dr, Stillion in Bird 211.
