  • The^festern Carolinian THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1977 Vol.XLIII, No. 12 CULLOWHEE, N.C. 'Communication two way street9 SYDNEY HARRIS See related story, page 7 It is impossible to think of any relationship that doesn't depend on communication, Sydney Harris told WCU students Tuesday night. Inn communication is surrounded by wrong myths we must leant to overcome. "The basis of communication is shared feeling." Harris said, but "we seem to have forgotten thai communication is either a two-way street or a dead cml." Even though communication'—"the human use of words" is personal, most of the messages we encounter today are Impersonal, rhetorical and self-serving. "That's why we're turned of by so much of it." Harris said, "because most institutions seem intent on cramming their messages down our throats." Harris, author of the syndicated column "Strictly Personal," told his audience thai the two biggest myths surrounding eonimunicaton are first, that communication is primarily a matter of exposition and second, that it is primarily a matter of words. "Most of us carelessly confuse information and communication." he said. "Information is giving out—communication is getting through. Information is a monologue—communication is the beginning of a dialogue." Communication, he said, is more than just sending messages. Real communication can only take plait' bclu een persons who arc conscious of each other. "There are DO real synonyms, not only between languages, but within the same language," he said. Even u hen we are using exactly the same work, we maj not be talking about the same concept. The word is not the basic unit ol speech. Harris said. citing a study which showed that the 500 most common words in English have 2N,(X)<) different dictionary definitions. The unit of speech, he said, is not words, but meanings, and "meanings are not in words meanings Four conditions must be present for real communication lo occur, there musl be meaning, and there must be a shared interest. The communication must be on a person-to-person basis, no matter how many persons are being addresseed. and there must be adequate feedback to adjust attitudes and understandings. Harris said everyone has two occupations—what he does for a living, and being a communicator. Many people neglect their communication skills, he said, so that it's often easier for a father, say, to make a living for his son than to come to an understanding with him. "What wc call the generation gap is in large part a communications gap." Harris said. "The aim of communication is maturity," he said," Turn to Page 7, please Resolution sparks Senate debate by EDDIE YANDLE Senate Reporter The reintroduction of a bill that had been defeated the week before was the main topic in the senate Monday night. The bill, calling for the establishment of a senate public information office, was first proposed by the executive office of the SGA but was defeated because several senators were against the office being a stipend (paid) position. It was reintroduced by the Rules Committee who said in their resolution. "There is a need for better communications to the students from and with SGA. as to its function and activities...." Vice-President Gary Brown stepped down from the chair, allowing Senate Pro-Tern Phil Cates to take his position of the night to argue in behalf of the bill along with President Patrick Murphy, who also attended the meeting. The debate began with Sen. Al Lagano continuing to voice disapproval over the stipend saying. "I still think it pays way too much. I think there should be a trial period with a smaller stipend to see how much work is really done." President Murphy assured the senate there was enough money to cover the job and said, "It's not going to be a job of three hours one day and three hours another day. He'll have to be a working secretary." Vice-President Brown went further to say, "The issue is not whether it will benefit the student'body. It was decided last week that it would. There was a question of a trial period. We went through that last year and went through three different people in the process. There's just too much work involved. He will be working a minimum of ten hours a week and I guess the minimum because he will be working more than this which will give him about $1.50 an hour." President Murphy was asked what the newsletter (that the public information officer would distribute) would include. He said. "Anything that deals with the senate: those (things) which change senate policy: even on controversial issues, when a roll call vote is required, it will be published; a whole gamut of reports can be included in the newsletter." President Murphy continued, "We only want to spend S225 this year (the bill proposed a stipend of $450 a year). It's too late to start this semester, so it would be just a trial period...." The debate continued with a friendly ammendment proposed by Sen. Tom Lafferty who said, "I would like to change the annual stipend from $450 to $225. and if it proves successful to raise it back up to the proposed $450 for next year.'' The ammendment was rejected by the Rules Committee as Sen. Linda Street explained. "A complete semester of only $112 is just not enough. That's too much of a hassle and hair pulling for too little." S The bill was defeated because of the stipend question in a roll call vote after confusion abounded over what motion was being voted on first. After an understanding was finally reached between the chair and the senate, the vote ended 9-8 against. Sen. Lagano in a non-debatable motion that passed said. "I feel that we need this office and I would like to recommend it as a stipend of $150 for this spring semester." In other business in the senate, a resolution was passed to ban future advertisement in Homecoming Queen elections, despite objections led by Sen. Lagano who contended it was an encroachment on freedom of the press. As a result. Sen. Lagano will file this complaint with the student court: I. Al Lagano. hereby file a complaint against the student senate, the office of the President of SGA. and the Homecoming Committee, for violation of the first ammendment rights of the U. S. Constitution of Freedom of the Press with the passing of SR #648. I hereby ask the courts of the student government asociation of WCU to rule on the constitutionality of this Turn to Page S , please Jackson, state agree: all pass Innofficial Returns November X, 1977 Sch Ho lligi fin Wat Be Constitutional \mendments Election id id (1 No 1 No 2 No 1 No 4 No 5 Yes Na Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes Na Yes No Yes No Yes No Precinct Barker's Creek 44 82 47 77 46 77 4K 70 48 69 31 83 33 81 37 79 11 u 31 44 10 52 18 45 18 44 33 18 47 21 47 Caney Fork 17 71 24 66 24 66 St 52 SO 54 20 69 24 62 30 58 Cashiers 94 42 111 30 77 60 89 57 115 30 115 24 85 54 83 62 Cullowhee 302 277 SM 211 434 157 511 82 510 76 343 253 355 202 437 138 Dillsboro 94 75 104 67 112 00 122 49 124 48 86 87 85 77 102 00 Greens Creek 52 63 73 16 75 85 32 88 29 67 48 60 46 74 38 Hamburg 71 65 74 70 73 70 as IS 99 46 74 68 78 61 86 53 Mountain 12 23 15 19 6 28 22 12 20 14 9 25 14 19 16 17 Qualla 170 M lfil 114 166 100 180 89 183 87 136 145 140 118 156 105 River 33 79 38 83 49 72 74 49 74 48 43 79 46 71 46 71 Savannah 80 n 53 93 56 109 37 106 38 88 60 76 66 93 47 Scotts Creek 79 70 91 61 84 68 81 75 108 47 117 38 75 78 70 82 Svlva-North Ward 270 101 276 104 292 88 299 72 298 70 213 157 209 141 247 105 Svlva-South Ward 498 B7 SOB 248 531 225 585 156 584 155 000 332 447 266 523 200 Webster 187 122 200 111 202 105 252 56 241 62 160 153 174 118 212 87 Absentees 25 17 .11 10 29 13 40 40 2 28 14 33 6 37 5 Total 2039 1546 2268 1413 2303 1347 2649 982 2692 919 1972 1676 1952 1513 2265 1260
