PAGE 2/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 1, 1977 Carolinian Newsbriefs 'Attitudes' ten-week leadership program "Adventures in Attitudes," a ten-week course in leadership and motivation, will be offered Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the WCU Extension Center at Oteen beginning September 8. The course, sponsored bv the WCU Division of Continuing Education, will be coordinated by William Belt/, a teacher lor Homewood School at Highland Hospital. Ihe course is designed to help indiv iduals realize their inner potential, and to learn now to coordinate a positiv reinforcement program lor others by increasing sell confidence ami communication effeC1' " rhreeContinuing Education Units will be available for persons who request them. Charges will be $25 tor tuition and $35 |'„r textbooks and other supplies. Further information is available from the WCU Division of Continuing Education, telephone 293-7397. UC expands clinics, trips, excursions I'he UC, in an effort to offer more knowledge and pleasure to the students of WCU, is expanding its fall and winter outdoor programs. Many clinics as well as trips have been planned in the areas ot kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing, rafting and snow skiing. Classes will be offered in different areas to beginners as well as the more advanced student. All clinics and trips are held in conduction with Cullowhee Wilderness Outfitters with experienced guides to teach the proper techniques of such outdoor sports. If you're interested in trying new experiences and enjoying the great outdoors, explore the realm of opportunities offered by outdoor recreation. Information on upcoming clinics and trips may be obtained from the University Center information desk. Appalachian hist, to 'understand, respect' Appalachian history will be the subject of a special non-credit course to be offered this fall in the Macon County Community Facilities Building at Franklin. The course, which is sponsored by the WCU Division of Continuing Education, will meet Tuesdays September 6 through October 4 from 7 to 9 p.m. There are no prerequisites for the course, and the general public is encouraged to participate. Instructor for the course will be Dr. James M. Gifford, WCU lecturer in history. Dr. Gifford is a graduate of Maryville College and Middle Tennessee State University, and holds the Ph.D. in Southern history from the University of Georgia. He recently completed a summer of post-doctoral work in Appalachian studies at the University of Kentucky. He has been awarded a WCU Vice Chancellor's Instructional Improvement Grant for 1977-78 to develop an academic credit course in Appalachian history. "Too much recent emphasis has been placed on what Appalaehia needs," Dr. Gifford said, "and not nearly enough attention has been given to what it has to offer." Dr. Gifford believes the course will be of equal benefit to those who do and those who do not have an Appalachian heritage. "Appalachian people should acquire more pride in their homeland," he said, "and non-Appalachians may emerge with a greater understanding of and respect for mountain people and culture." Organization sponsors Open House The WCU Biology Club and the ACS Student Affiliates will sponsor an Open House, Thursday, September 8, to introduce students, faculty, and other interested to the new Natural Science Building. The Open House will begin at 7p.m. in the Natural Science Auditorium, located on the ground floor of the new building. Dr. John McCrone, Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences, will give the opening remarks. A guided tour of the new building and an introduction to faculty will follow this opening ceremony. As the tour is completed, those persons interested in specific sciences will be able to meet with the apprpriate student organizations. The Open House will adjourn from these separate locations. Anyone interested in seeing this new facility is invited to attend Terango awarded for hearing conservation Dr. Larry lerango of the WCU Speech and Hearing Center staff has been awarded certification as a Course Director for Occupational Hearing Conservation Programs by the Council for Accreditation in Occupational Hearing Conservation. The organization is responsible for upholding minimum standards and maintaining quality in hearing conservation programs in American industry. It monitors the quality and standards of courses offered by course directors and their faculties. It also provides certification for individuals who complete CAOHC-approved training programs. Seven professional organizations are represented on the national council. They are the American Academy of Occupational Medicine, the American Association of Industrial Nurses, the American Council of Otolaryngology, the American Industrial Hygiene Association, the American Occupational Medical Association, the American Speech and Hearing Association, and the National Safety Council. Upperclassmen down, freshmen up Although the student population has remained about the same as last year's, the WCU housing office found itself with a shortage of rooms this year. A slight drop in upperclassmen was offset by a small increase in freshmen which has led to the housing problem. According to WCU Housing Director Moon Chat Sue, 24 men were temporarily housed in study rooms on campus, most in Leatherwood Hall. But by Monday, all had been relocated in regular rooms. Several rooms were made available when about 45 students failed to show up on campus by the housing office deadline last weekend. About 30 other men will be housed for the rest of the term in the ground floor of Scott Hall, and some private rooms may be available after next week's scheduled room change period on a first come, first served basis. As of Monday, there were 3,177 students living in the WCU residence halls, 1.634 female and 1,562 male. Of these, about 1.400 are freshmen, 125 more than last year's fall enrollment. Female upperclassmen numbered 838, while there were 821 male upperclassmen. There were also 265 transfer students, 149 female and 116 The most asked-for residence hall for men is Leatherwood, while women prefer Helder and Buchanan, according to Chat Sue. When asked about future problems facing the housing office Chat Sue replied that he would like to see apartment type housing offered on campus for graduate and married students. Also, a greater variety of housing should be offered to accomodate the many different lifestyles of students coming to the university. The university housing office also plans to improve the residence halls with the addition of new TV's (many of which have already been installed), and by carpeting hallways in the dorms. Study rooms will also be improved with sound-proofing materials, new furniture, and new paint. A survey may be sent out to students in the near future to, determine what changes they would like to see in WCU housing.
