  • PAGE 18/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1977 Student rowdies ruin forum It has become apparent that student rowdies are out to disrupt and possibly destroy one of the best new programs offered at WCU this year—ASI 300, or the nixersity Forum for Contemporary Issues—by taking tdvantage of attendance record keeping problems and he lack of qualified and willing babysitters to patrol a lace as big as Hoey Auditorium for two hours. Since the class is large—more than 500 people are ■gistercd for It—attendance must be taken by passing out tickets with spaces for students to write their names and student identification numbers. For the first few forums tickets were given at the door and taken up by student assistants at the beginning of the program. At the first forum there were a few students bold enough to leave as soon as their tickets had left their grubby little hands. At the second forum the notion caught on and a good third to a half of the student audience had exited before the program was over. After that Dr. Curtis Wood, director of the program, had to have the student assistants give out and take up the tickets approximately half an hour before the program ended. But, as was evidenced this past Monday, even this doesn't work. A full two-thirds of the students at the forum that night left just as soon as the tickets left their grubby little hands, causing one of the speakers to say, "What are you passing out there—I want one." And all of them couldn't even muster up the decency to wait until a good breaking point was reached to bolt the place, but got up in the middle of speakers' sentences. A lajority of the students don't come to listen to the program, just to sign the tickets so they'll get the one-hour credit and just yack or otherwise raise hell. A favorite place for this is the balcony, so Wood had the balcony closed off the week before last and last week. The first time, no one sat in the balcony, but the back of the orchestra section sufficed the hell raisers. Last week the ropes barring entrance to the balcony were torn off, and the upper tier was packed. The noise level in the back got so bad that Dr. Wood had to ascend and babysit the crowd. Some of the rowdies took to the lobby and consumed cigarettes and yacked. Student assistants cannot control other students. Faculty members do not particularly enjoy having to play babysitter and Dr. Wood won't ask them to do it either, because the idea is insulting. And for Dr. Wood to stand up on stage before the main speaker (who could well be from outside the WCU community) and ask students to attempt to control their boorish behavior is downright unthinkable. Wood plans to end next Monday's program early so he can give the children a small lecture in proper comportment in a lecture hall during a session— something one would think most college students would have learned in high school. And, although he doesn't like it, he is going to get tough and kick people raising to much hell out of the program. The forum is too beautiful an idea to be ruined by a bunch of know-nothings who pretend to know so much that they don't hve to listen to any old fuddy-duddy professor from Africa or some weird place like that. Wood has worked hard for two years just trying to get this thing off the ground, and still works hard with a faculty/student committee to coordinate the program. The concept allows professors from different disciplines and different schools, as well as professionals outside the university community to get together and hash out ideas on contemporary issues in public. And it gives students not only the opportunity to listen in on these discussions and offer their own Ideas, but also gives them an opportunity to pick up an easy one hour credit (that may be used as an upper-level general education elective up to four times) for only attending seven of nine sessions and writing a paragraph on only one of the programs. The ideas behind this worthy project embody what a university is supposed to be doing- bringing out into the open conflicting opinions and information and allowing even the foolish to gain s semblance of understanding about a topic. If "students will be students," then let them do it somewhere besides the University Forum. The voices of university students must be heard In this country, and the forum is a great start (especially for a culturally, and subculturally, deprived place like Cullowhee). Children, however, should be seen, not heard. (A.E.B.) Senate 'Afraid' Dear Editor, Upon witnessing Senate Resolution #637 defeated Monday night, it became increasingly evident that many of the year's senators are afraid of how the people they're representing would feel about their voting records. The bill, proposed by Senators Al Lagano and Joe Planz, requested the mandatory roll call voting on resollutuions and that the results of these resolutions be made public. This type of format has been used in the past by the student senate and is still in use by the nation's representatives but was voted down by the senate which included a tiebreaker vote by Vice-President Gary Brown. It was evident from the beginning the bell was going to meet with distinct opposition when Sen. Richard Sullins stated his committee (Rules) had given it an unfavorable Teport. Immediately the debate was on with Senators Lagano, Plantz. and Phil Cates arguing in favor of the bill while Senators Sullins, Mark Asa. and Al Thomas fought against it. Such reasons as it would use a lot of paper...it's a waste of money... it would take too much time... people wouldn't understand...and if they really want to know, let them come to the meetings, were some of the ridiculous reasons given by senators for not voting for the bill. Sen. Plantz, who tried to defend the bill said, "We're representing a constituency here, not just ourselves as individuals." He went further to say, "It's important that our groups know how we vote and if you don't feel that way you shouldn't be here." Despite these arguments by Planz and Senators Cates and Lagano, it was obvious the vote was going to be close and resulted in the request of a roll call vote by Sen. Cates. Thanks to an abstention in the voting, the result was a tie forcing Vice-President Brown to cast the tic-breaking ballot. After some prolonged consideration, Mr. Brown voiced a resounding "no" within the This type of attitude within the senate has caused me to agree with Sen. Plantz who resigned Monday because of academic problems and believe this year's student senate "is not doing such a good job with the exception of about five people." To conclude I would like the members of the 1977-78 WCU Student Senate to consider something which Sen. Planz said in his resignation letter to the senate, "I have tried this year to get people to think for themselves. I realize that 1 have failed."
