PAGE 2/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/October 4, 1979 The Western Carolinian Member Intercollegiate Press Editorial Staff V Lagano Woo Cathings *v n Wilkins Eddie Yandle Taylor Sisk Steve Surles Chip Hammond Charles Lawing I s McDaniel I ditor in Chid Business Manager Managing Editor Associate Editor News Editor Sports Editor Columnist Art Editor Photo Editor Too many columns? Last week's paper brought quite a bit of discussion, both from the staff as well as various students, concerning the number of columns which appeared in the paper. Personally, I feel there were too many and thus this week we have cut back. We love the letters though, so keep them coming. They keep us in line. I had hoped we would never have to go back to a 16 page paper, but with break coming up the area merchants did not feel it was logical to advertise on Thursday when the students were leaving on Friday. I can't say I blame them. So with less ads, we have to go with less pages. Next week is a short work week and the editorial staff will consider the size of the paper on Monday. If you have any suggestions concerning the paper we urge you to write. In a few weeks we will run a survey asking for your opinion on various parts of the paper. I hope that will be successful in providing us with a realistic view of the students' wants concerning The Western Carolinian. Still, the best way to express your viewpoint is to write. Have a great break and we'll see you back In Cullowhee next week. Everybody wants in the act Dear Editor, I'm upset. Really upset with the present condition of your so-called student newspaper. Over the years I have watched the Carolinian go from one extreme to the other. When Rick Eichhorn was editor a few years back the paper consisted almost wholly of straight, journalistic news articles. People actually condemned Eichorn for this. "Where are the columnists?" they asked. "A student newspaper has got to have opinionated columns!" It looks as though they certainly got their wish. Now it seems the Carolinian is ALL columns and no news. This in itself is bad enough, but to add to it, all the columns are garbage. Filler. That's all. It's easy to run a newspaper if no one has to go out and dig up any news. Just let the writers write whatever they want right off the top of their heads. Great. You, Al Lagano were trained*?) by Doug Reed, a man well respected among many journalists. What happened? What happened to that good ol' fashioned journalistic spirit? You've really copped out. In last week's issue, on top of the same old garbage that Wilkins and Yandle have been throwing at each other, I noticed some new ones. How about the great literary undertaking of "No Opinions" which discusses the virtues of not mowing the lawn on Saturdays? That's really some heavy duty stuff. Also, everybody wants to get into the act. Now the photo editor is writing his column, "f 32". In photography, f 32 can mean two things, either very sharp or very slow. I'm inclined to interpret it as meaning the latter when referring to his column. If he wants to write a photography column, let Mr. McDaniel apply at the offices of Popular Photography! Why don't \ / uriaUt^n7edafea,pafK\yic, l'\o a, Vta-ndicapped aone hKt5t1/V|rtff vou include a column on stereos for all the audiophiles on campus? Or a column on automotives for the mechanically inclined? What I'm saying is, specialty columns have no place in a 20-page student newspaper! And then there's Edward Williams and the "Inimitable Paw". Consider the plight of an honor graduate of WCU who has nothing better to do than continue to write for the campus paper! Mr. Williams, vou have your degree now, so why don't YOU grow up and use it. If you've got brains, use them for more than healing your seemingly deep-rooted insecurity by feeding your ego this way. I think I've made my point. I just feel sorry for whatever remote talent you might have up there. If I were one of those few, I'd be ashamed to have my by-line in the pages of WCU's so-called student newspaper. Sincerely, Chuck Hammel I have to admit you are right in a sense, Mr. Hammel, there were too many columns in last week's paper. This week we have cut down. If our Chief Columnist, Chip Hammond, [Remember him, Mr. Hammel?] would provide this newspaper with any consistency at all we would not need to experiment with new columnists. But Mr. Hammond fails to produce his "weekly" column again, so we are left in the cold to search for a creditable columnist to fill his empty space. Although it can be carried to an extreme, as perhaps last week, I still feel this newspaper would rather be "The Voice of the Students," than merely a dry, uneventful newspaper. However, there is a happy medium, and we will search for that in the weeks to come. You write well Mr. Hammel, why don't you write me a column? -Ed. Newspaper praised? Dear Editor, Praise be to the WCU student newspaper, The Western Carolinian. I know that a lot of time and energy is devoted to keep the students informed on campus news. I'm sure that the students appreciate the fine work done by the staff of The Western Carolinian. i hope that The Western Carolinian will continue to be a "free press". I know that the student newspaper will continue to publish facts, ideas, and opinions of the students, by the students, and for the students without interference from the WCU Administration, the Student Government Association, or any other group or association which has direct or indirect influence upon the students. I am not implying that The Western Carolinian has not been honest in reporting, but I am writing this letter in order to remind the student staff of the newspaper that they should continue to report honestly in order to maintain one of the great American prides which is "freedom of the press". I cordially thank the Editor-in-Chief, the Business Manager, the Managing Editor, the Associate Editor, the News Editor, the Sports Editor, the Columnist, the Art Editor, the Photo Editor, the Staff Writers, the Photographers, the Ad/Comp. Designers, the Artists, the Typesetters, the Circulation Manager, and the Production crew who devote a lot of time and energy to keep the students informed about circumstances which have an influence upon the lives of WCU students. Indeed, The Western Carolinian is "The Voice of the Students" now and hopefully always. Sincerely, Lavern Samuel Oxendine Conspiracy cited Dear Editor, Have you ever thought of the shape our nation is in from the energy crisis? It appears that we're up the creek without a paddle. Everytime we look around we either see the government arguing over the fuel shortage or Carter telling us to cut back. Well, how are you suppose to cut back when you haven't got anything to cut back with. In my town alone; this summer has been the worst ever, with service stations putting up little red signs reading, "Sorry, Sold Out." Instead I think they should be saying, "Sorry, competing with everyone else." To get right down to it, I think the "so Turn to Page 3, please The Western Carolinian is published every Thursday throughout the academic year and summer sessions by the students of Western Carolina University.
