BBQ And Rock & Roll by Robert Porter Contributing Writer If vou imagine a sunny afternoon wilh members ot the student body lifting around listening to booming rock and roll and eating Cecil's barbecue and chicken. the scene would be the latest performance of a local band who call themselves Grindstone. Grindstone placed in front Of the UC on Monday. September 8. If it is one thing that WCT needs, it is things of this nature, where good quality music is not sacrificed for a price. It was evident that Grindstone was the driving force. Anvone could listen to the music and no one was obligated to eat. Many people are aw are of Grindstone as thev are a local group comprised of students. Thev are, (from left to rlghi in the above picture) Bob Porter, sound technician; John Hutchinson, guitars and vocals; Bill Overcash. bass; Mike- "Grizzly Bear" Garvin, vocals and drums; and Jim Kilgore, guitar, Thev are the last Minute Productions 1980 Battle of the Bands winner - and the reason is clear. So keep vour ears tuned to the sounds of Grindstone. lb,v will convince vou that rock and roll is not just make believe when thev return to various places around (ullow hee. I lie beat goes on... Student Senate There's a lesson to be learned from this week's student senate meeting: If you're not a student at WCU then don' t try to get a job with SGA. Last summer SGA employed a 'student' who was actually a 'non-student' at the time. A continuing student not enrolled, however, in summer school was hired on at SGA. 'We got tc thinking about that after we'd hired him,' said SGA President Mark Williams, 'but found there was nothing in our constitution either prohibiting or disapproving such an action." It was then that Williams went to Dr. Glenn Stiilion, Vice-Chancellor for Student Development, for advice. Dr. Stiilion said that since the person was already on the payroll and SGA's constitution said nothing of such a situation it was the Association's decision. 'That's the reason behind Senate Resolution No. 880," Williams, the resolution's sponsor, went on. 'We had to decide one way or the other.' The decision contained in No. 880 'clarifies an ambiguity' according to Williams--an ambiguity not limited to SGA but extending to all clubs and organizations in which student fees pay for student work. While President Williams declined to name the person in question in SGA's employment last summer, he did state that he was aware of instances in the past when 'non-students' were employed by Last Minute Production predecessor Student Government Productions. No. 880 is now under the study of the senate finance committee. Changes Proposed A General Education Proposal has been presented to the Faculty Senate and may be acted upon in the next month's meeting. According to Dr. Ellerd Hulbert, history professor and Chairman of the committee, the proposal would have major effects on the curriculm. 'The proposals would among other things, reduce the number of hours required for a major from 51 to 42. It would also rule that no specification of general education courses could be made by the various departments. According to Dr. Hulbert, the change would make the curriculm "Basically, not all that different, the courses would just be in a different order." He also added that certain majors that required courses in the general studies area but were required for the Major specifications may have to be added on to the major load. Another effect the proposal would have would be tot set up a general studies curriculum. This general, program would be upgraded, with an emphasis on (1) written communication; (2) oral communicationL) (3)' scientific mcthodl i (4) critical and analytical thinkingD (5) logical rcasoning;(6) reference and resource skills;and (7) consideration of values and the types of value judgments most relevant to course content. The program would be more challenging to upgrade the students' ability to compete in the job market, according to Hulbert. Dr. Sal Nerboso, Political Science professor, is unhappy with the proposal because of the lack of sufficient student input. Dr. Nerboso, worried because: the proposal is moving through so rapidly said that,, "The Students have a stake in it" and that the proposal 1 should be seriously looked at by members of the: student body. Students may voice opinions and I suggestiions, but have no say in the final decision i regarding the proposal. This is a very important issue concerning all the students of WCU. Interested students may contact the members of the faculty who drafted the proposal for more information: Ellerd Hulbert, Professor of History Frederick Coyle, Professor of Biology Paul Haberland, Professor of German William Scott, Professor of Economics Quinn Coinstantz, Professor of Health, P.E., and Recreation Judith Stiilion, Associate Professor of Psychology Daniel Southern, Asst. Professor of Home Econimics Martha White, Associate Professor of Nursing Charles Taylor, Professor of Criminal Justice Maurice Morrill, Dean Emeritus rf the Graduate School And Judy Dowell, Hon-\ Economics The next Faculty Senate Meeting will be October 17. Location is yet to be determined. Observations The Athletic Office and the office of Traffic and Security have requested that Residence Hall students who park in the stadium lot should park in the warehouse. University Center, Baptist Church, and Music-English building lots during the weekends of home games. Moving your cars during game weekends will assist greatly in preventing traffic congestion. Your cooperation will be appreciated very much. The Catamounts Home games will be held as follows: Sept. 20-Furman-7:OOp.m. Oct. ll-TheCitadel-7:00p.m. Oct. 25-Marshall-Homecoming-l:00 p.m. by Ephram .Gerrard Rhett. Editor's note: E.G. Rhett is the great-grandson of Oswald Simon Prey [O.S. Prey], related to John James Audubon, in lower Georgia and South Carolina. He is now a hermit in Western North Carolina. He was consented to contribute regular essays to The Western Carolinian. It is with some reluctance that I take up the pen of my maternal great-grandfather, Oswald Simon Prey (1798- 1898), yet I dare to do so in order that my fellowmen may taste some of the wit that genetically passed from him to me and others of his descendants, at different times. As an inhabitnt of this Valley and as one connected ■ncendentally with its Center of Learning, I have thought that some of the observations which I daily make might occasionally be beneficial to the readers of this tabloid. Be assured that such passages shall be impartially written, though acutely conceived and thoroughly researched for accuracy of detail. At the outset, then, I am pleased to praise fhe great care that the High Foreman of this Center has troubled himself to take in tidying up the Grounds on which the Students perform their various tasks of Learning; without neat hedges, clipped grass, and pruned trees, how could any information be transmitted from Teacher to Student? After all, neatness counts! What better way to spend the Money of the State than to raise Edifices to the Mountain Antiquity and to cultivate a breed 6f Athcletcs who cannot prevail against the meekest of opponents? What better way to operate a Center of Learning? There are some positive aspects, one supposes, aooui the place, but one finds pin-pointing them a tedious task. Perhaps the facts regarding certain relationships amongst the Higher Foremen to be of interest, such as: Who reallv is the High Foreman? Valete, E.G. Rhett September 18. 1980-Western Carolinian' 3
