Greg Ryder The first line of an article is always the hardest to write, and the first one of the semester is really tough, so now that that is over with let's get on with this. Welcome back. How was your summer? Good I hope, not too much work and plenty of play. But with that behind us I'm sure that everyone is ready to hack it through another year. For those wonderful people coming to Cullowhee for the first time (yea, you freshmen) I'd like to say a special hello. And watch your step getting on and off that rotating platform in the upper level of Dodson. The one like in the Peachtree Plaza in Atlanta, you know? As the year progresses, we at the Carolinian will do our best to bring you an informative and interesting newspaper. This is the primary function of any paper and we plan to be no exception. As with any publication, we will no doubt not always see eye to eye. That is normal. But if you ever feel that we have left out one side of the story, or misrepresented the whole thing, then feel free to write us. 1 personally feel that your input is vital to making this paper the service it should be. If you have something that you think needs attention it's not getting, then write, phone, leave me a note...give me a hand. IVe worked here at the Carolinian for the past two years and have seen many different approaches to publishing a student paper. I've been with this paper from the time when it was a pseudo-serious yet functional publication,'Ihrough periods of political conflict and bankruptcy. But still, as always, we push on. Hopefully, under the excellent leadership of editor Monica Henson, we will manage to provide the students of the university as well as people of the surrounding community with an enjoyable informative paper. If you think we fail to do so then it is your responsibility to let us know. I'd really appreciate it. Student Senate News Wand* Crawford Staff Writer The Western Carolina University Student Senate met Monday, August 28, at 5 pm, with 17 members present. Terry Miller, vice-president of SGA and president of the Senate, opened the meeting. Senate Secretary Dianne Singleton called the roll and read the minutes from the May 2 session, which were unanimously approved. As there was no old business, the Senate proceeded to hear and pass Senate Resolution #1004, which was an act to change the title of the Staff Member of the Year Award, with which the Senate rewards one of its members each year for his/ her outstanding service. The resolution passed, changing the award's name to the "Patrick L. Carmody Staff Member ofthe Year Award," in honor of the r'vard's 1982-83 recipient, who died unexpectedly this summer at his home in Greensboro. President Miller, in recommending the resolution, reminded the senate of Carmody's meritorious service as Director of Public Information for the senate. He said, "Carmody took Public Information and really made it into something. He was also the one who started Stray Cat Security." Senate Resolution #1005 was brought up for discussion and postponed until the Senate Rules Committee has a chance to make its recommendations on it. This resolution involves the executive appointments of 13 senators.

Lord Grey To Speak A t Heritage Center Lord Ralph Francis Alnwick Grey of Nauton, chancellor ofthe New University of Ulster and the former governor of Northern Ireland, will speak Friday, Sept. 2, at the Mountain Heritage Center of Western Carolina University. The occasion is the official unveiling of a major exhibition on the historic migration of the Scotch-Irish from Northern Ireland to Southern Appalachia. A revered British nobleman, Lord Grey, 73, will give the opening address at 3 p.m. Other distinguished guests will include Dr. Alan Burges, chairman of the Scotch- Irish Trust of Ulster and the former vice chancellor ofthe New University of Ulster, and Lord Grey's wife, Lady Grey. A public reception will follow the opening ceremonies. Lord Grey entered the Colonial Administrative Service in 1936 and progressed through senior posts as governor of British Guiana (1959-1964), the Bahamas (1964-1968) and the Turks and Caicos Islands (1965- 1968). He was appointed governor of Northern Ireland in 1968 and retired from that office in 1973 when direct British rule suspended Ulster's regional Parliament at Stormont. That suspension came in the wake ot continuing strife between nationalists seeking independence in Northern Ireland and Unionists in favor of British rule there. Lord Grey was educated at Wellington College and Auckland University College, both in his native country of New Zealand, and at Pembroke College, Cambridge University, England. He was made Baron of Naunton in 1968 and in 1980 was appointed chancellor ofthe New University of Ulster, an honorary title conferred upon persons of eminence, among them members ofthe Royal Family. In addition, he has garnered numerous honors, including the Order of the British Burges, who as vice chancellor of the New University of Ulster was its principal academic and administrative officer, is a distinguished botanist interested in environmental issues. Since 1978, he has been chairman of the Scotch-Irish Trust of Ulster, a society devoted to promoting the history of Scots who moved to Ulster and those who later moved from Ulster to America. The Mountain Heritage Center exhibit, scheduled to remain on display for a year, offers a comprehensive look at the Scotch-Irish migration from 1750 until 1840. Based on four years of research by WCU history professors Dr. Tyler Blethen and Dr. Curtis Wood, the exhibit outlines this migratory path from Ulster to Southern Appalachia by way of the "Great Wagon Road." This famed route stretched north-south some 450 miles from Philadelphia to the Shenandoah Valley, on down to the Yadkin River Valley and Piedmont North Carolina. From there, many Scotch-Irish moved westward to the Blue Ridge Mountains of southwestern North Carolina. As the Scotch-Irish intermingled with various ethnic groups and adapted to new environments along their way, their lives were checkered by an underlying theme of change and continuity-change in many of the materials they used for everyday living but continuity in non-material traits such as their faith, music and adaptability. It is this predominant theme of change and continuity that colors the exhibit. Anchoring the migration story in the exhibit are full-size authentic dwellings like those of the early Irish tenant farmer and ofthe Appalachian pioneer. Between these two dwellings which stand at opposing ends ofthe center's two main galleries, the migration story is told in historic maps, photographs from 19th-century, household artifacts and the histories of Ulster families whose descendents still live in western North Carolina and carry on the Scotch-Irish names of Patton, Carson, Cathey, Davidson, Ferguson, McDowell and others. Among the artifacts are items which belong to Irish museums and are on loan is this country for the first time, said museum curator Sam Gray who designed the exhibit. They include a rare musket, turf spades and turf used for fuel, a wheelbarrow, handmade chairs and utensils for cooking on the hearth. The show also features a 60-foot canvas mural, portraying changes of architecture and lifestyle made by the Scotch-Irish along their way, and a poignant slide- tape show, in which Irish voices and songs speak of the emigrants' love of Ireland, their oppression and their move across the Atlantic. Further historical background is detailed in a 60-page book available free of charge. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. weekdays and 2- 5 p.m. Sunday. The Mountain Heritage Center is on the first floor of the H.F. Robinson Administration Building, located off Highway 107 at the new entrance to campus.
