THE ^ lV fes tei n Carol VOICE OF THE STUDENTS inian Volume Fifty-two Number Seven Thursday, September 18, 1986 (704)227-7267 P.O. Box66 Cullowhee,NC 28723 ON TAP Northwestern U. Is Withdrawing from o State Department-sponsored anti-terrorist training program, following allegations that some of its participants were "Salvadoran National Guardsmen implicated in human-rights aPuses and murder. NU's president says the program had Pecome politicized and: "We were concerned that (this) really distorts our Pasic mission, which is academics." More Than 6,500 Scientists, including a majority of professors in the nation'stop 20 university physics departments, have declared themselves opposed to Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, and have pledged not to accept any "Star Wars" research funds. University Librarians fear the impact of Pudget cuts at the Liprary of Congress, where reductions in cataloging and the acguisition of foreign Pooks could seriously impair their ability to make research materials available to scholars. Most U.S. libraries are dependent on the Library of Congress for cataloging, so a decline in its volume of activity harms nearly all libraries. Despite Opposition From Student Leaders, the U. of California-Berkley administration will be reopening its computer store at an off-campus location and selling IBM products there. The store was closed four days after it opened on campus Pecause of protests against IBM, which sells computers to South Africa. A Federal Appeals Court has rejected the City of Philadelphia's argument that the U.S. Army, whose policy of discriminating against homosexuals violates the city's Fair Practices Act, should be prohibited from recruiting at Temple U.'s law school. The court cited the Constitution's supremacy clause, giving federal law precedence over state and local laws and prohibiting state or local interference in federal actMties. Studying the Sciences may soon be an option for sightless students, say U. of Louisville researchers who're adapting chemistry labs for the blind. Sponsored Py Ihe National Science Foundation, the project com Pines the efforts of vie professors who're equipping labs with special tools like speech-synthesizing computers. Reason Enough: The First U.S. Court of Appeals has ruled that Southwestern Massachusetts U. was within its rights to refuse to renew the contract of a non- tenured instructor who refused to make his course easier for students. Students complained that the class and grading policies were too hard. The instructor argued that his policies followed SMU guidelines, but the court said SMU had the right' to decide what academic standards to adopt,, and whether teachers were meeting those standards. A $500,000 Damages Claim has Peen filed against Fisk U. Pased on an alleged 1985 residence hall assault. The si^it charges that the school was negligent in failing to provide adequate security. The suit claims that a woman's ground floor room had no curtains and had windows that would not lock, and that the building air conditioning was not operating so the windows needed to be left open for ventilation. Princeton U. Has Been Dropped as a defendant in a sex discrimination suit filed by a former student over the campus all- male dining clubs. The school agreed to express disapproval of the clubs and pay her $27,500 in legal expenses. A Student Group Has Been Formed at Stanford U. to defeat a Lyndon LaRouche- s'ponsored initiative that could prevent AIDS victims from attending school, traveling or holding certain jobs. The initiative will appear on the California ballot Nov. 4. The students plan to launch a massive voter-registration drive and public education campaign.

Auto Accident Leaves Student With Broken Hip by Brad Kimzey Staff Reporter A WCU student was hospitalized after a one- car wreck this past weekend. David Falls, a junior at WCU, suffered a broken hip when his 1982 Trans Am hit a parked car on Longbranch Rd. He also fractured his other hip. Apparently Falls was leaving a party at Queens Apartments around 3:00 am Friday and going to his apartment at Laurel Oaks when his car left the road and ran into a parked 1974 LTD. The LTD was parked alongside LongbranchRd., in front of Sandy Frady's home (Ms. Frady owns the car). Estimates of Falls' speed were unavailable, but the impact pushed the parked car 35 feet. Falls was apparently blinded momentarily by a car that flashed its brights as it rounded the oncoming curve. Both vehicles were total losses. World's Foremost Authority on Epidemiology to Give Lecture at WCU. OPI - A food scientist, epidemiologist and expert in foodborne diseases will give several lectures and presentations at Western Carolina University Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 22 and 23. Frank L.
