Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).

  • 8 Western Carolinian/February 24, 1983 Leisure CAP Center's Jean Ritchie by Carole Hudgens .lean Ritchie, assistant coordinator of counseling and testing at the CAP Center, has been asked to be on the training staff lor the Gestalt Therapy Institute of Honda's 2 week residential summer program at Black Mountain. Gestalt is a non-analytic form ol therapy which takes a holistic approach to the individual. Its goal is to increase the individual's awareness of sell, and ol the world. Ritchie has been training in Gestalt for nine years under Gertrude Krause of the Gestalt Therapy Institute tit Florida. Krause, who is XO years old, studied under Fritz Perls, who is known as the lather of Gestalt. I herapists and counselors from all over the United States. South America, and Germany will attend the Gestalt program this summer. Gertrude Krause, John Heider and Poldi Orlando are full-time staff with the Gestalt Therapy Institute of Florida. Ritchie feels honored to be asked to train with them lor their summer program. Ritchie's interest in Gestalt goes much further than the summer program. She has introduced this type of therapy to Western Carolina University and is currently running a group in Gestalt on campus. (The group is presently lull, but there will be another program offered in the future.) Another group Ritchie oilers using the Gestalt method of therapy is lor women with eating disorders. One of these disorders is bulmarexia, known as the gorge- purge syndrome, which usually affects women who are high achievers. Ritchie said that bulmarexia is similar to anorexia, although with bulmarexia a fairly constant weight is maintained. There is a group on campus for women suffering from this disorder. Ritchie has been a counselor at Western for six years and has made many contributions besides her work in Gestalt. She is a certified drug and alcohol counselor for the state of North Carolina, and she is also a licensed psychological associate. (She received her B. A. in English from Wesleyan College and her M.A. in Psychology at the University of West Florida.) Ritchie is also in charge Preparing A Resume Jean Ritchie (Photo by Ken Lauber) of the 24-hour crisis call service for counseling emergencies on campus. (For this service, students can call the CAP Center between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., and after 5 p.m. they can call the infirmary and ask for a counselor.) Ritchie has contributed greatly not only to Gestalt, but also to Western Carolina University. She said that she enjoys her work with the students and feels she has grown more in this job than any other. by Myron McGhee The majority of people on this campus are young people furthering their academic lives; it is doubtful that many students have grasped the entire spectrum of why they are here. We are to prepare for the rest of our lives. This includes all of the socializing we do, plus the academic studies. In getting ready for the rest of our lives, there is one aspect many of us put off until the last minute; preparing a resume. As defined by Ihe Random House College Dictionary, a resume is a brief account of personal, educational and professional qualifications, and experiences, of an applicant for a job. As many teachers here on campus put it, a resume is something that follows you for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, many students wait until the last possible moment to write their first resume, like most other things, a resume gets better with practice. You say you have nothing substantial to put on a resume? Try attending one of the resume classes here on campus. Currently there are two sets ol resume writing classes being taught on campus. One set of the classes is being taught through the CAP Center. These classes are instructed with the college senior in mind. That is, the resumes prepared are basically for the student who is preparing for immediate graduation into the world of work. Seniors have the chance to begin setting up a placement file. A placement file would include references from teachers or other influential persons in the student's life. The files are either open or closed. This means the student has the option to see what is written by the person giving the reference, or he can chose to never read the references. In order to obtain a reference for the file, the student is given a form to deliver to the person giving the reference. If the placement file is open the student can pick up the reference at a later date. If the file is closed, the reference must be sent back to the Placement office in a sealed envelope. The file would contain also a copy of the student's one page resume. The Placement office is open to all students enrolled and all alumni; however, onlv seniors are encouraged to use the CAP Center and Placement Office as a means to start a resume. The seniors who might be interested, the classes will meet for the rcmaiudci of the semester at 3:00 on Mondays and 2:00 on Wednesdays. Contact the CAP Center or Larry Bixby for more information. The second area that resume classes are being taught is through the Cooperative Education Office. The resume classes taught at the Coop office are geared towards the student who is applying for Co-op positions available. These classes will also meet for the remainder of the semester. They generally meet once or twice a week at 4:00 in room twenty McKee. I he Co-Op office tries to show students how to prepare a two-page resume. The two-page resume differs from the one page version that is taught by the CAP Center in that it includes information that the undergraduate student needs. The first page of each resume contains much of the same information. Things like: student's full name, local and school addresses, personal information, his or her farcer objectives (the job being applied for), colleges attended and degrees attempted, the student's work experience, and certain academic achievements and activities The second page of the Co-op offices resume contains a complete list of the courses the student has already taken and the courses he or she is currently enrolled in. One or two references are also included on this page. The differences in the two types of resumes are very slight. The CAP Center's version consists of one page. It lists much of the same information as the two page resume, but in a more consise manner. It also is geared for the student who is planning to leave college and enter the world of work. It is not lor the student who is looking for summer employment or applvmg for a Co-Op position. Ihe Co-Op Office specializes in the two-page type resume, and this is most likelv the type of resume most students will need. Most employers ol college students are interested in the type of courses the student is taking. The two-page resume provides them with the information they desire. Once the resume has been reviewed by the student and one of the Co-Op's staff, it is sent to companies the student has chosen to hopefully work for. For more information call Susie Ray at 7133. The resume is of vital importance whenever someone applies for any type of job. It is the first thing the prospective employer has to judge the applicant by. If the applicant has a sloppy-looking resume, the employer is liable to reject it altogether. The resume should be neatly typed and attractive to the interviewer's eyes. It is something you should be proud of. Editors Note: In the second part to this article Myron McGhee will discuss the job interview, sometimes the determining factor in getting that all important job. The Wheat Chex captured the $100.00 first prize in the second annual Alpha Epsilon Rho Air Band Contest. The contest, which was filmed by PM Magazine, was a sell-out. (Photo by Ken Lauber) Rush Week by Brian Devinney The semester is now four weeks old, and we are now witness to the phenomenon known as Rush. To a person who is not in college it might seem that these people who walk around with paddles and/or little wooden pendants are escapees from an institution, but we know better. These men and their female counterparts are participating in what is known as Formal Rush. The student handbook defines Rush as the period during which students are invited to become acquainted with the Greek sororities and fraternities. Various functions are held, and those students who meet university requirements may attend and become familiar with these groups. At the end of the period the student may be extended a bid and be invited to become a pledge. Students are urged to visit several fraternities or sororities before making their final decision. The President's Council operates and supervises Rush for the fraternities and the Panhellenic Association supervises Rush for the sororities. Any entering freshman with an S.A.T. score of 800 or better or any transfer student with a 2.00 QPR on at least 12 hours at WCU is eligible to be rushed and pledged by a fraternity. In order to pledge, a student must abide by Council Rush Registration. To be eligible for an invitation a student must be regularly enrolled and have attained at least an overall QPR. of 2.00.
