MARCH 23, 1978/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/PAGE 5 Millcarek gave up warmth for Western The mountains have an atmosphere which draws many interesting people. Though life in Cullowhee is often proclaimed to be dull, there are people who have chosen to give up the excitement of urban life for a slower pace Without regrets, Carol Millcarek gave up life in the warmth of Florida where she did well as a hairstvhst m the world of show business. Looking for a change, she moved into academics and brought her family to the mountains of North Carolina. One of the hairstylists at the Holly Tree in Cullowhee. Carol has lived here for one and a half years. Although she still practices her craft, she has given it up as a career to pursue a BS and eventually an MS in Chemistry. Hairdressing now remains as the best means of supporting her family and sin- appreciates the advantages of this income. She speaks of being grateful to the chancellor for his help when she needed a license to work in North Carolina, one of the interesting anecdotes in her life, since after working for more than ten years in hairdressing for nationwide television, she was told that she needed to go to school since this state does not recognize apprenticeship as adequate training. This setback is one of those that Carol accepts as part of life. Hairdressing wasn't her coice as the ideal career but right after high school it becam obvious- that it was a very lucrative one, particularly in the resort atmosphere of Miami. In addition, one day she answered an ad in a paper for the position of hairstylist for the Jackie Gleason Show. She got the job as one of two stylists for the show which at the time was aired from the Miami Beach Auditorium. This job was valued for Carol as she was interested in dramatics and says that in the world of show business there is no exclusive social set-up as both technical and artistic areas must work together for the good of the show. As professionals, it seems each person's work is respected and in a "glamour" show, stylists have complete responsibility and therefore have 'free reign' in their work. Each week, work involved styling for entertainers during commercial breaks, hours of work on the dancers, and touch-ups during shooting on the principals. The work was fast-paced and hard but then- were minutes to watch the shooting while being available for touch-ups and there was time to make DREW CLARK PHOTO friends. In her ten years of show work, Carol also styled for beauty pagents, both the 1968 Republican and Democratic Conventions, and commercials which involved minutes of high pressure work and hours of waiting. Show work in Florida is seasonal, so there were periods of salon work. At one time she held the position of assistant-manager of a Glemby Salon. High-pay but high-pressure work in salons creates nervous tension in those who make it a long career, according to Carol, and eventually the time came for her to move up in her SATURDAY AM 8-12 Easy Top 40...Mike Wlx PM 12-3 Classical...Ben Moore 3-4 Best of Broadway...Ted Eiland 4-5 Big Band Hour...John Fouch 5-5:30 Old Radio Showtime 5:30-6 PEOPLE...Ron Cline 6-9 Top 40...Stan Carmen 9-12 Disco SUNDAY AM 11-11:30 JOY 11:30-12 POWERLINE PM 12-7 Top 40 7-8 WWCU PRESENTS [bi-weekly] Bluegrass Jbi-weekly ] These opera recordings are through the generosity of Hunter Library and will be broadcast In their entirety on the dates indicated.

Her first choice was mechanical engineering but that major isn't ottered here, hence ( hemistrv. the woman who is managing to support and raise a family alone along with a completely new life-Style admits to being moody but declares that she is not afraid to live. Carol Millcarek insists that people must not become locked into patterns regardless of their age or sex, but be ready for change when necessary. She is a "people-libber" who says that the most important thing is to find out who you are without role-playing, simply make-do with what you've got. For all these reasons, she has become happy here in Cullowhee. enjoying the feeling of the community, of friends who have helped her. and of her children growing up in a better environment. A real part of the community. Carol feels it is important to make a contribution while coping with work and studies. She tries in ways like the workshop that she held this week for parents on how to cut children's hair. A busy woman who lives what she believes in, Carol is a member of the community at Western who makes use of those resources which are part of her environment.
