  • VOICE OF THE STUDENTS Vol. XLONo.47 .Thursday, April 22, 1976 WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY CULLOWHEE. NORTH CAROLINA Three head CAP Center New staff members in WCU's Counseling, Advisement, and Placement Center are (left to right) Larry Bixby, coordinator for placement; Most shoo-ins Raymond Ledford, center director; Dr. Thomas Westcott, coordinator for counseling; and Dr. Marilyn Jody, coordinator for academic advisement. The Counseling, Advisement and Placement Center (CAPC) at WCU-part of a five-year, $1.7 million federal grant awarded to WCU last year—has moved a step nearer full operation with the appointment of coordinators of counseling services, academic advisement, and student placement. The three are Dr. Thomas Westcott, coordinator for counseling, Dr. Marilyn Jody, coordinator for academic advisement, and Larry' Bixby, coordinator for placement. Their appointments were announced by WCU Chancellor H.F.Robinson. Dr. Westcott will be responsible for beginning a comprehensive program of counseling services, and will supervise four full-time counselors. Currently assistant professor of counselor education at Pennsylvania State University, Spring elections today With so many of the offices going unchallenged, it is not likely that many people will consider today's election important. Five offices are going unchallenged; the senator-at- large seat will require a write-in. This leaves only three races open to real competition. In the UCB Presidential Race, Ron Cline and Steve Harrell are the major contenders. There is a rumored write-in campaign for this office. The two candidates for Business Manager of the Western Carolinian are Frank Thomas, current manager, and Mike Miller. Mike Miller Frank Thomas Ten have filed for eight commuter senate seats: David White, Deni Mclntyre, Bob Westmen, Beth Thomas, Barry Weaver, John Harbison, Sandra Forguson, Nancy Hope, Brian Musselman and Robert Bivins. Those running unopposed are Anthony Brown Jr., editor, Western Carolinian; Layne Barrett, UCB vice-president; Jake Phillips, WWCU general manager; Meryl Owen, Catamount editor; and Stokes Gatewood, Catamount business manager. Dr. Westcott holds bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees from that institution, where he has taught since 1972. He has served as consultant to the Pennsylvania vocational rehabilitation and employment security bureaus. He has published articles dealing with drug abuse prevention. Dr. Jody is now a WCU associate professor of English. As coordinator for academic advisement, she will work closely with admissions, orientation, registration, and academic affairs offices, and will supervise a full-time advisor and between 10 and 12 part-time faculty advisors. She also will oversee the university's tutorial services and remedial programs. Dr. Jody served as editor of the WCU self-study during 1972-74, and was chairman of the Inauguration and First Founders Day committee in 1974. She is a former vice chairwoman of the University of North Carolina Faculty Assembly, and has served as secretary, executive rules committee of the WCU Faculty Senate. She also has served on numerous university committees. A graduate of the University of Kentucky, Dr. Jody holds the PH.D. from Indiana University, and has taught at UNC-Charlotte and the University of Alaska. Bixby will have major responsibility for career planning, and will establish a program of career instruction and a career library at WCU. A former placement advisor and assistant to the associate dean of students at the University of Georgia, Bixby holds bachelor's and master's degrees from that institution. Bixby is a former headmaster at Surry County academy in Virginia and Cleveland Day School in Tennessee. The three coordinators will report to the CAPC director, Raymond Ledford. Ashbrook, former business dept. head dies Services were held Staurday for Dr. William A. Ashbrook, 77, former head of the business department at WCU, who died Wednesday. The funeral was held at Cullowhee United Methodist Church, of which he was a member. Dr. Ashbrook, a native of Pennsylvania, graduated from high school in 1916. His work experiences included kitchen work, construction work, railroading, work in a steel mill, a tire company, an auto factory, and a shipyard. He received his A.B. and M.A. from the University of Kentucky. In 1930, he received his Ph.D. from Ohio State. Dr. Ashbrook came to WCU in 1939 when it was still a teachers' college. He held the position of head of the business department from the time of its official organization in 1940 up until his retirement in 1968. Under his direction and leadership, the business department became one of the largest at Western. Among his many contributions to the university was his establishment of the in-service program in Asheville, which now involves over 1000 students. He was partly responsible for changing the department of business into the school of business. He was also partly responsible for the computer center and the economic development center. Dr. Ashbrook had the reputation of being a great fisherman and a man with a great sense of humor. He used to tell people the only reason he stayed in Cullowhee so long was that he could not sell his house. According to a friend, he also had some remarkable driving abilities. Reportedly, Dr. Ashbrook once put his car in neutral and coasted from Bear Lake to Tuckaseegee without using his brakes. Surviving are the widow, Mrs. Stella Taylor Ashbrook; a daughter, Miss Betty Jean Ashbrook; a sister, Mrs. Harry D. Perkins; and nieces and nephews.
