Miller: Senate Election Turnout Well Below One-Fourth Average Greg Ryder News/Feature Editor though turnout was typically low, elections for the Western Carolina University Student Senate were completed Wednesday, Sept. 14, with only minor difficulties. Vote counting continued until after 9:00 pm, when returns from the Madison Dorm election were turned in. SGA President Terry Miller was very pleased with the results of the election, though he was displeased with student apathy toward the election. Miller estimated turn-out at well below the average 25%. A total of fifteen senators were elected, including three returning senators from last term. Senators were elected from all of the on campus dorms with the exception of Robertson. The Western Carolinian commends and congratulates the winners in the elections. Elected from the dorms were: Albright Benton--Terry Samuel, William Mathews; Buchanan—Nichole Kater; Walker—Joanne Sanderson, Janet Davis; Leatherwood- Greg Stafford, J. Keith Clary Jr.; Reynolds-Jeff Plemmons; Helder—Marcy Belohlavek, Vickie P. Simpkins; Scott — Kris Davis, Claire Garrard, Tammy Johnson; Harrill— John E. Cato Jr., Anthony Howling; Madison-Jimmy Luther. The WCU Student Senate meets every two weeks in the Catamount Room in A. K. Hinds University Center. Freshmen Depressed Freshmen are more likely to suffer from depression than are upperclassmen, according to a recent study conducted by Dr. Javad Kashani. Twenty percent of freshmen studied expressed suicidal tendencies, while none ot the seniors in the study did. The findings appeared in a recent issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry. Sabrosky cont. from page 3 Dr. Sabrosky said there are constraints to such presidential action, and the most direct one comes from the Congress. "What Congress will not give money for cannot be done," he declared. Congress can either limit formal commitment or authorize the President to use greater force. He noted the paradox ofthe War Powers Act of 1973, which was meant to set constraints on the presidential ability to commit forces but had the reverse effect of actually giving the President the right to wage war for a period of 60 days without Congressional approval. Other constraints, less direct but in the long run perhaps more effective, come from the press, from public opinion, and from the effect these two forces have on the President's electoral future. Concerning actual, effective political constraints, Sabrosky said, "1 do not see any real political constraint on the presidential ability to initiate interventions if he is willing to accept the political consequences of failure. Unlimited war situations will occur in the future whether we choose to intervene or not." During a question and answer session following the University Forum meeting, Dr. Jeff Neff, coordinator of the Forum, voiced concern with the "gloomy picture" Sabrosky had painted of the future, with its threats of nuclear annihilation. Neff asked, "How do you feel about the future for our children?" Sabrosky replied"! don't make bets on the year 2000. The nuclear genie has been out of the bottle too long." These are Dr. Sabrosky's opinions. They constitute neither my belief nor that of ISI, which sponsored Dr. Sabrosky's lectures. 1, personally, take hope in what has for some time been a seriously proposed organization of a superstate incorporating Western Europe and the British Isles. Perhaps such a state, if it successfully b These are Dr. Sabrosky's opinions. They constitute neither my belief nor that of ISI, which sponsored Dr. Sabrosky's lectures. 1, personally, take hope in what has for some time been a seriously proposed organization of a superstate incorporating Western Europe and the British Isles. Perhaps such a state, if it successfully brings together the third largest population group in the world, can act as a constraint and as a homogenizing force on warring cultures. Perhaps the nuclear genie will find his powers nullified.
