"We have more freshman applications for housing than we've ever had," says Randy Rice, Director of Housing. "We feel that we can accommodate both new and returning students." Rice said the only impact the large freshman class will have is that it will limit the number of private rooms available, dispelling rumors that all private rooms will become obsolete. Yet only those who have had private rooms this past semester will be able to sign up for the private room waiting list. This sign up will be April 24. Once the available space is assessed in the fall, then the housing office will determine who on the waiting list will be allowed a private room. This decision will be made based on the length of (Brad Kimzey photo) From left: Charlotte Hyatt, Sue MacDougall, and WCU Housing Director Randy Rice prepare for the enrollment increase during room sign-ups time the waiting list students have been in university housing and their class seniority. Another rumor that has been circulating is that there will be three to a room next fall. But Rice says "It's not going to happen." increase in enrollment would just fill up all dormitory rooms at double capacity. For the fall, the iincrease is 300 to 400 persons. WCU Names Solid Waste Freshman enrollment for the Fall of 1989 semester is up 20% as the Office of Admissions may announce this month that there are no more openings for the fall. The normal freshman enrollment in the past few years has been around 1,120, but for this coming fall it is already 1,350. "We've already turned down 800 applicants," says Mr. Drumont Bowman, director of admissions. Incoming applications for the fall are up 26% as 4,200 have applied so far. "We don't want super large classes," Says Bowman of the possible announcement that they will stop taking applications. "We want to keep classes small, around 35 or 40 (persons)." WCU admission requirements were raised for the fall of '88, causing the Office of Admissions to turn down some applicants. The admission requirements for high school students interested in WCU are as follows: four years of English, two years of algebra, one year of geometry or another advanced math, three years of sciences, and two years of social sciences. These requirements will become mandatory for entrance to all schools in the North Carolina school system by the Fall '90 Christine Faris 4/13 WCU's Regional Economic Strategy has named a 23- member Solid Waste Task Force. The task force will address one of the four economic development priorities recently cited by the project— to reduce solid waste and improve Western North Carolina's solid waste management. The three other priorities identified were to enhance tourism and recreation contribution to Task Force the economy, to improve the region's business capital availability, and to develop leadership. Two Jackson County residents serving Western's project are Joe Beck, WCU's health program director, and Tom Massie, Jackson County planning director. At a recent organizational meeting, members discussed priorities for improving the region's waste management systems, accessing markets for recyclable materials, and organizing public participation in reducing solid wastes. WCU's Regional Economic Strategy Project is conducted by the Center for Mountain Living's Economic Development Division. It is funded by the General Assembly, the N.C. Rural Economic Development Center, and the Tennessee Valley Authority. JL.4-- * L.

B.J. Dunlap-Hoffman received the award for establishing the Journal of Health Care Marketing and making it a "viable and profitable professional public? tion." Dunl ap- Ho f f m an founded the journal was recognized as the leading reference for academians and practitioners in 1980. When she sold it five years later to the American Marketing Association, she remained as editor of the 25,000-circulation journal. B.J. Dunlap-Hoffman She was also cited for her 8-year service on the board of directors of the Academy for Health Services Marketing, her international service as a speaker, and her witness in court cases concerning health care marketing. by Christine Faris NEWS EDITOR WCU's Project Management Institute last Tuesday announced its journal will now be publicized monthly instead of quarterly thanks to a new desk-top system. The Project Management Journal and the spin-off publication Network have united under the name of PMI Communications. The journal, edited by Stephen D. Owens, WCU management professor, is the Project Management Institute's scholarly publication. The institute, a 6,000 member, nonprofit international organization, is headquartered in Drexel Hill, Pa. WCU has the largest project management faculty group at any U.S. business school. Additionally, the university has the only business school offering the project management master's degree. According to Francis M. Webster Jr, PM Network editor, the publication caters to project managers. "About 90 percent of our members are practitioners who want something that can help them do their jobs today," said Web- Initiates System ster. "This need is met by PM Network," he maintained. "The Project Management Journal fulfills the larger mission of the Project Management Institute— to advance the state of knowledge in the field." Included in the projects members may manage are efforts as extensive as the construction of a new city in Saudi Arabia, the Alaska Pipeline, and nuclear power plants. Also, members may head projects to develop new, life-saving pharmaceuticals and space technology. According to WCU's School of Business dean, John McCreary, "Faculty members have worked hard to combine elements of this discipline into areas of scholarship for undergraduate and business students." Over a dozen students have cV researched, authored, and presented papers in this field, he said.
