The Western Carolinian Page 9 Thursday, December 1, 1988 Luminaires To Light Up Dillsboro What the UC Can Do For You &ift~ by David Hutto STAFF WRITER So you come back to class in January, you're sitting around the room, the roads are so icy you can't drive anywhere, and there's nowhere to go in Cullowhee anyway. Now you begin to wonder seriously why the students have never said to the administration that a little more social life would help keep students at WCU. In fact, students did say this to the administration, and the University Center (student union) created P.G. Katz. Open Wednesday through Saturday, P.G. Katz is an evening club, beginning at eight and running until the UC closes (eleven on Wednesday and Thursday, twelve on Friday and Saturday). The club always has a CD sound system running, with occasional appearances by DJs or comedians. While open, P.G. Katz serves nonalcoholic drinks and food from the snack bar. This student club is, however, only a small part of the services and facilities which make up the UC. The building itself was built in response to students in the 60's voting to fund a bond issue. The WCU University Center now functions as a completely self-supporting entity, with no state funds going toward its services. And what are those services? Entering the building on the ground floor, from the open quadrangle, one first comes to the information desk, open from eight a.m. until eleven p.m. (Information can also be had by phone at 7206, with specifics on Last Minute Productions events al 7479.) This service is basically for campus information only, with campus phone numbers or information on upcoming events. In addition, from 1 -4 in the afternoon, tickets can be obtained for LMP events, or reservations can be made for classes and trips offered by LMP. (All UC room reservations arc also made by calling 7206.) Near the information desk arc a copier, which students may use for five cents per copy, and the UC administrative offices (handicapped students may go here to request elevator service to the other floors). Also on the first floor arc the Chelsea gallery, with around ten art exhibits a year, in various media. One popular service on the ground floorof the UC is the game room, with billiard tables, video games and a juke box. The game room is open 11-11. Finally, there is the Cherokee Room, which may be reserved by students groups for dances or meetings. This room is also used for showing movies or holding aerobic classes. The second floor of the University Center seems at first to be occupied primarily by an open lounge, where students sit talking or watching TV. The TVs on this door arc now wired for cable (with occasional satellite programs), and in addition the set nearest the door constantly runs videos, which arc changed weekly. This is also the floor where the food service and P.G. Katz (adjacent to the food service) arc located. Many students may find it useful lo learn that during certain times student meal tickets can be used in the UC, both in ihe snack bar or the restaurant. Meal tickets are worth $1.75 (more that this must be paid out of pocket), and times are 7-10, 10:20-11:30, 1-4 and 4:20-7:30. The second floor further contains the offices for both Last Minute Productions and the student government. There arc, additionally, four meeting rooms Two-thousand candles line the streets of Dillsboro. As the sunlight fades the rows of candles glowing through white bags in the chilly air seem almost mystical. The Luminaire began five years ago when a group of merchants staged the event for the first lime. The group included Tom and Emma Werienbcrger of the The Squire Waikins Inn; Gordon Badden on this floor, holding up to 38 per- dent from the listing in this article sons each. The rooms are open for that the University Center attempts use any time the UC is open, and to meet student needs and respond may be reserved by any student to student desires.

Emma Wertenberger recalls, "Gordon and I had both lived in towns where they had luminaires. We suggested it and the others liked the idea." The Luminaire is held the first Friday and Saturday nights in December, it lasts from about five p.m. until about nine or until the candles go out. Open house is held at the shops with some serving refreshments. Entertainment is scattered about Dillsboro with locations including the Jarrett Baptist Church, Maxwell's Bakery, Nancy Tin's Christmas Shop, and caroling in the streets. Entertainment groups include: The Smoky Mountain High School Show Choir and Women's Glee Club, Fairview Elementary School Recorder Ensemble, Tommy Ginn's Brass Ensemble, and the Osmet Family's Dulcimer Group. Most of these groups have been performing in the Luminaire since its second year. Mrs. Wertenberger says that "The first year it was just us (the group of merchants listed above), but the second year all the merchants and folks living in Dillsboro took part. Even the mayor lights candles." Last year the Lumaire was featured in Southern Living Magazine. The Rescue Squad directs traffic to help avoid problems. For feeling of Christmas cooperation and an impressive spectacle come to Dillsboro for lhc annual Luminaire, December 2nd and 3rd.
