  • It's Up To You WWCU aired a public affairs program last Sunday featuring a "Street Talk" on the subject of the Western Carolinian. In reviewing the program |which I taped j with my slaff, we came across some very constructive critisism and excellent suggestions along with other enlightened comments. These suggestions arc being put into practice wherever possible. As helpful as the comments were, we fell lhal we could gel even more responses and comments. Therefore, Chuck Vaughan-Lloyd has gone oul and talked with people about Ihe Western Carolinian and got more feedback. This brings me to the subject of my editorial. As much as wc try to bring the students of this campus a publication which is the voice of Ihe students, we cannot possibly unless we gel more input from Ihe students. Sure, we put the paper together and try to cover as many of the activities on campus as much as possible, but it is ultimately up to you, the students, If the Carolinian, WWCU, SGA, LMP, or any other campus organization to work for you. I'm sure thai all campus organizations, with energies combined instead of pitted againsi one another in a bitter struggle for budget allocations, could be Ihe tools necessary to have a unified, spiriled university; one that wc can all be proud of. RWS Talon' It To The Streets By Chuck Vaughan-Lolyd Staff Writer Bob McCall..."The general overall look of the new paper is better than in the past years. There should be more of a mixture of National and Local News. I'd like to see a calender of events around Cullowhee." Betsy McGuinn..."I'd like to see a little more National news. There could be more local news concerning events happening around campus. I'd like to see a more entertainment like jokes, etc. The paper layouts look better than in years prior. I think the newspaper should get out and find out what the students are interested in." 2/ Western Carolinian/ October 23, 1980 John Gibson..."First I think the paper has improved since Cade, Smith became editor (way to go!). However, the distribution of the papers has gone to pot. At one time you could easily find a paper in one of the dorms or cafeterias. 1 have had difficulty in finding a copy of WC for the past several weeks, and it's not because 1 haven't been looking. Let's get going! By the way, the photography and ad design have been great, but how about a comic strip and more editorials from the students and less defensiveness from the editor." Mary Oaks..."l enjoy the Western Carolinian. It is fun to read. The students at WCU don't seen to have much interest in exercising their VOICE OF STUDENTS! In other words, we need more editorials. The proofreading has improved but could still stand to be improved. Keep trying!" Tom Wilson..."1 would like to sec more National news, perhaps a column summarizing the latest national events. We need more sports coverage lor lhc smaller sports. 1 also feel like the students and faculty arc responsible for some of the paper's weaknesses, since I seldom read any editorials condemning or praising it's contents." Budget Questionable Guest Editorial by Jim Wrinn . Ygs, that's right--it's your money the senate doled out Monday--all $122,250 of it or>$13from each full time student. Isn't it reassuring to know that a group of 30 people can--having never seen the document before- pass that budget in two hours? It must give cold chills to the members of the finance committee(s) that put the thing together during the weeks leading up to last Monday. When you've got 37 clubs requesting $200,000 and you've only got $122,250 to give out, there's gonna have to be some slack cut somewhere, and where you take that slack is bound to cause some slecpncss nights. Right Scott & Co.? Well, what I don't understand is why the senate didn't stay yp just one night with the thing; surely there were a few unanswered questions the senate could have asked. I know I have a few. Take for instance, when Comptroller Furr told us Monday that the largest budget increase for a single group came to 62 percent. Now the Organization of Ebony Students got $720 last year according to senator with a budget in hand at the meeting; They received $1,810 this year and as best as I can tell (I'm no math major) that's at least a 150 percent increase. Somebody explain that to me? And while somebody's doing that I wish somebody from OES would tell me what they'd have done with the $13,000 they requested had they received all of it? Another good question that surely somebody can answer is this: Why were Senators Richard Sullins and Todd Mason trying so hard to take money from elsewhere and give it to WWCU when the radio station's business manager had just finished telling the senate about how fair its allocation was? Of course, the biggest question mark comes at line 3324--SGA. I've always hated to question myself and I guess the senate is no different. So in lieu of the senate questioning Comptroller Furr, I appointed myself Special Prosecutor and went to see him the next day. "What's this line 2200-Food Products?" I asked. It turned out to be legit--money spent to host receptions for freshman orientation sessions last summer. But $400? Why had Vice-President Lauten told the senate at the beginning of the semester that he had only spent $268? "He made a mistake," said Scott, showing me the bills. "And line 3400--S650 for printing and binding?" "That's money for the SGA handbook," said Scott. "And what's that?" "That's Mark Williams idea." Scott stated. "It's a history of SGA." What about the SGA--the Savin Copier Account? It got $3,000, but nobody asked about that. When you do ask. you find out the machine is located in the SGA office BUT. as Scott said, "available to all clubs and organizations at a reduced rate of 5 cents"--obviously at a reduced rate from the 5 cent rates the library or UC (just down stairs from SGA) charge; the money buys paper and chemicals for the machine. Very seriously, though, isn't approving a budget in two hours sort of like flashing a deck of cards by? It's pretty hard to pick out the Jokers from the Aces. Right? There are some other good questions that could have been brought up Monday, but why waste valuable I line: Requirements Fair Dear Editor: 1 wish to clarify a statement in your article on General Education (Octl6). You cite Dr. Judith Stillion's example of a nursing major who "had apparently transferred (sic) from another major into nursing and had found it necessary to complete an additional semester and a half of general education courses, thus losing time and money." I agree with Dr. Stillion's point that the general education proposal should simplify the selection of courses for undeclared or wavering underclassmen and for transfer students. However, anyone expecting to enter nursing should plan to spend at least two terms meeting prcprofessional requirements (anatomy, physiology, microbiology), which are not now general education courses. The nursing faculty does not consider that our designation of general education and professional prerequisites is unreasonable. The evolution of our curriculum is continuous, thoughtful, and responsive to student and graduate consultation. The general education proposal stimulates our thinking as it does everyone else's in the university. Sharon Jacques, RN, MS Assistant Professor, Nursing Jne Obhieraied Sine by Jf. Gesler Dunlopp Hi, Kiddies. Once and again the solutions to the world's problems will be explored in another episode of The Obliterated Line. (Yaay!!) Today's tome concerns our frigid bretheren (and sisteren) living in university dwellings. I mean, Really, folks. Things aren't a bed of roses in these ivy-covered halls. For one thing, no one has considered turning on the heat yet, even though several weeks of cold have elapsed since my last impassioned plea. I know that our favorite peanut farmer has told us that we mustn't play Iranian and turn our thermostats up. I can even see keeping the temperature at an average of 65 degrees.But when you try to get the average by having the place at 55 during the day andlO degrees at night, it gets old fast. I awoke yesterday morning from slumber to notice that sometime during the night, my roommate had frozen to death. This wasn't that unpleasent, as I now had a private room at no extra charge. The day got worse, however. Upon realizing that in order to dutifully attend class to procure my much needed dose of knowledge for the day I would have to get out of my nice, warm bed into the cold expances of the dorm, I suffered severe psychological stress; however, being of sound pioneer stock, I proceeded. Upon bolting from the covers, I found that my original estimate of the temperature was slightly off. I determined this by speaking to a friend in the hall who commented on my voice, which had magically risen seven octaves. After reaching my room after the nice, warm shower 1 had, I discovered a new form of entertainment in watching icicles form on my body. This aside, the morning wasn't that bad. Come on, people. It's bad enough that we have to put up with the yo-yo next door who serinades the Alpha Delta with the 5,783 add-a-beads until three in the morning with the tender strains of the B-52's, but we be worst 3nd Pay f°r *■ °h' We"' thin«s could f,,Jhll Week\, 'Jddies'' enc°"rage one and all to play a o.ks8inT ?'ed-"begging for bucks".
