Transcript

Western Carolinian November 12, 1981 Voice of the Students Vol. XLVI Issue 12 933 Passes— Barely This week's meeting of the Western Carolina University Student Senate lasted only forty minutes, but in that short period what should have been a minor issue raised a great deal of dust. The debate centered around Senate Resolution #933 which provides the Vice- President of the SGA the power to appoint the Senate Secretary and the Assistant to the Vice-President, two offices which, according to the resolution, ar& "totally" Senate oriented and should thus be under the jurisdiction of the Vice-President. The resolution, sponsored by Senators Jimmy Hayworth, Ed Levy, and Lisa Womack, was to redistribute this authority which is currently the priviledge of the Student Government President. Debate divided the Senate almost evenly. President Gary Long was present and handled most of the negative debate concerning the resolution, the only issue to reach the floor Monday evening. His stand provided that SR #933 was unconstitutional, but senators on both sides stated strong support for their approval or disapproval straight from the constitution. Senate Advisor Latimer recognized this problem, and cited the constitution as ambiguous. He made perhaps the best suggestion when he recommended that the two offices in question should be more clearly defined with regard to duties. President Long asserted that the Senate Secretary and the Vice- Presidential Assistant are as much a part of the executive operations as the Senate, and that they must be individuals who can work with him, therefore he as President should appoint them. The senators supporting the resolution, however, argued that these offices are strictly Senate oriented and making a change in policy is essential. The final vote was quite close; SR #933 passed in the Senate by a slim margin of 11 to 10. Though it was approved, chances are remote that this resolution will ever be ratified into being. Since President Long is personally against this bill, he will probably use his veto power. The Senate could override his veto by a two-thirds margin; this would send the resolution into the Student Supreme Court, a body by Leah Geanopolus to page 17 Plenty of Water Ken Lauher Western North Carolina is suffering from a general water shortage. Western Carolina University, however, is not affected by 'this shortage. WCU has its own water system. Water supplies come from the Tuckaseigee River. The water is pumped from the river to the treatment plant and stored in reservoirs. According to Jim Culp, Director of the Physical Plant, WCU uses about a half-million gallons of water each day. This amount decreases on the weekends. The WCU water system has 2.3 million gallons of stored water; therefore, WCU could survive for five days without more water being processed. The town of Cullowhee gets most of its water from springs and wells. Some Cullowhee residents have been affected by the water shortage. WCU's water system is temporarily supplying some off-campus students with water. Although there are about 200 Cullowhee residents who have been tied on to the campus water system for several years, state law prohibits any more off-campus customers. As WCU students, we have no worry of a water shortage. by Ronda Parker Shuttle Service The Shuttle Bus is a service provided for Western students with the express purpose of aiding students in their transportation needs. The service, coordinated by the University Center, is paid for by the students themselves. One dollar per student per semester is added to the Activities Fee to cover Shuttle Bus costs. Dr. Glenn Stillion is in charge of the program. This service is for Western students only. Due to insurance restrictions, students alone are covered. All passengers must present a valid I.D. to take advantage of the service. The Shuttle Bus program is currently in its fourth semester. Last ySar, approximately 20,000 students rode the bus. It is driven by students, and its loads vary from one to capacity. The Shuttle Bus formerly had longer hours, but reduced them to the current schedule after a review of the hours in demand. Shuttle Bus hours are Monday through Friday from 3 to 7 p.m. and the bus leaves the U.C. parking lot every hour on the hour. It travels to East Sylva Shopping Center, Sylva Plaza, C.J. Harris Hospital, then to Jackson Plaza. As it returns to campus, it travels through downtown Sylva. Pickup downtown is usually at the Northwestern Bank. Students can be let out or picked up at other points on the route by arrangement with the driver. Inside This Issue: by Laura Hunt No major accident folks, it was only a practice session by firemen yesterday. Although it was only a drill, the scene drew many onlookers, concerned and curious. Such drills by firemen help improve their effectiveness in case of an emergency. Doug Cavanah SGA Response...2 Sexism...4 Skip A Meal...9 Road Race...11 Cats Picked First... 15
