  • Western Carolinian January 21, 1982 Voice of the Students Volume XLVI Issue 16 Ticket Policy Changes Cats Warming Up In Conference Improvements by Howard Allman The Western Carolina University trustees have started preliminary considerations on the 1983-85 capital improvements projects. A 19-item list, which is considered "very tentative" was reviewed by the trustees. These projects are estimated to cost more than $15.3 million, and the largest portion of this money will be devoted to energy conservation and energy production measures. These projects include an estimated $4,452,000 to renovate McKee and Stillwell buildings. The buildings were built when heating costs were low, so they were not designed as "energy efficient" structures. An alternate fuel boiler is also under consideration to replace the oil fired boiler which is now is use. The boiler currently in operation will only burn one grade of fuel oil. Dr. C.J. Carter, Vice-Chancellor of Business Affairs, said, "Western Carolina University is one of the few state agencies in North Carolina that is wholly dependent upon one fuel. "Furthermore," he elaborated, "if any interruption of the fuel supply occurs during the heating season, the university will have to close down." No decisions have been made as to what type of alternate fuel boiler will be used. Dr. Carter said. "We need a boiler that can burn more than one type of fuel, possibly one that could use wood, coal, gas, or oil." The boiler is estimated to cost $3,761,000. Reactivation of the old hydroelectric generating plant located on the Tuckaseigee is also under consideration. This project will cost an estimated $269,800 and could produce anywhere from 5 to 8 percent of the electric power required by the university. The university hoped to obtain federal funding to reopen the plant as a pilot project last year, but federal budget cuts suspended the program. The other projects include: Renovation of Hoey Auditorium, which is one of the most heavily used buildings on campus and badly in need of repair. The estimated cost of this renovation is $2,340,000. The construction of a new warehouse and storage building is also under consideration, to meet the "extreme limitation" of storage space, costing an estimated $1,425,000. Dr. Carter also proposed that the Western Carolina University-owned buildings need repairs and renovations estimated at $811,300. Renovations on the Western Carolina University building at Oteen, in Asheville, is also on the list of projects, but no estimate of the cost was issued. by Laura Hunt Many students have expressed concern about the new basketball attendance policy recently instituted by the Athletic Department. For those of you who have not heard of this new policy, perhaps a brief outline will help you as well as clear up any misconceptions about the new policy. The new procedure is relatively simple, with a few twists. 1,530 tickets will be issued to students alphabetically, with A-I and J-Z distributed for alternating game days. Tickets are to be picked up at the 2nd floor of the UC between the hours of 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Saturday game tickets will be issued the Friday before. Tickets that are not picked up by the students in the designated name group will be available after 2:30 p.m. on game days to all students on a first come, first served basis. Once the tickets are in this period of open pick-up, students need only present a validated ID to obtain a ticket whether or not they are in the designated name group. There is no additional fee for these tickets. The set schedule listed below is subject to change later in the season to allow for rescheduling of the UT-Chattanooga game which was snow out over the Christmas break. The Athletic Department wants to stress to the students that this new procedure is strictly for the benefit of the students. There has apparently risen a severe need for crowd size control because of safety violations. This procedure was chosen above alternatives because of considerations in areas such as fairness, convenience to students, and presumably as the only orderly way to maintain safety standards. One overruled alternative, closing the doors when capacity was reached, was rejected because, as Coach Waters, the Athletic Director put it, "How would you like to stand in line for long periods of time to have the door shut in your face just as you got to it?" Coach Waters also discussed some new seating policies which would enable a maximum number to be admitted to the gym. Forty to fifty extra seats are being made available by repositioning the WCU Pep Band to a spot set up on the gym floor, rather than in the stands. Also, seats in the reserved section which are not claimed by ticket-holders will be opened to any students outside after the first half is completed. These steps, plus allowing for 150 standing room spaces will be used to admit the maximum safe number of fans, which is 2,760. Waters stressed that this way the students are guaranteed seats to at least half of the games for the remainder of the season. Most people who are interested in attending the games will still have an opportunity to get in no matter what group they fall into. He also made a deliberate point about the fact that this new procedure puts additional burdens on the Athletic Department. This is due to the additional manpower needed to activate such a program, as well as the extra costs involved with the undertaking, but that it is all done in the best interest of the students. Waters cited the fact that most ACC teams follow such a plan of action, and that we are in fact better off than say, our conference opponent Marshall, whose similar program was run on an every third week basis until their new sports center was completed this year. These are the facts and explanations given by the Athletic Department on this new attendance policy. Student safety is apparently the main reason for the change. Students with any questions about said policy are urged to listen and watch for information, and to feel free to contact the Athletic Department with their questions. Student opinions are also welcomed here at the Western Carolinian in the form of letters to the editor.
