People The Western Carolinian Page 7 Thursday, September 28, 1989 College Republicans Want You by Steve Jones Micheal Jones 'The purpose of College Republicans is to stimulate in young people an active interest in government affairs and to increase the efficiency of popular government," says Lori Gamble, President of the College Republicans, who has started passing out recruiting sheets in order to increase membership. The organization takes the conservative view of most national issues, participates in the activities of the state and national Republican Party, and hopes to travel to the state convention this year. The organization is supported locally by Dr. Albert Gilman, of the Math Department, former chairman of the Jackson County Republican party, and Dr. William Latimer, of WCU's Political Science Department. The group's advisor is Dr. William Higgins, of the English Department. Membership is open to anyone who upholds the goals of the College Republicans club. For more information, call Dr. Higgins at 7264 or Lori Gamble at 293-5156. ... and Democrats do, too by Steve Jones Micheal Jones 'The College Democrats are composed of politically interested students seeking to learn about partisan politics by participating," says Debbie Barnard, chairman of the organization and a junior Special Studies major. Barnard feels that she is more liberal than the general membership, but is quick to add that "all types of Democrats are encouraged to join, and positions on issues tend to vary within the College Democrats." Barnard says that she hopes "to join forces with the campus Peace and Justice Society, help to alleviate voter apathy, and work on the South African apartheid issue." Dr. Gordon Mercer, Head of the Political Science Department, is the organization's advisor. Interested parties can call Debbie Barnard at 4814 for more information on the College Democrats. Membership drives for the organization are expected to begin in the near future. The College Democrats are open to anyone wishing to promote the ideals and activities of the Democratic Party. The Staff of The Western Carolinian wishes Western Carolina University a Happy 100th Birthday! Western Gold Panning for New Students by Shawn Busby Western Gold, an organization of Western Carolina University students, is currently helping the Admissions Office in its efforts to recruit high school seniors and transfer students from two-year colleges. "Western Gold attempts to ensure that prospective students and their parents realize the quality of Western Carolina University," says Dru- mont L. Bowman, director of admissions. Promoting a positive attitude toward WCU in prospective students, their families, enrolled students, and alumni is the primary purpose of the organization. Members of Western Gold make phone calls to prospective students throughout the year. They are encouraged to correspond with high school seniors in their respective hometowns. According to Bowman, "Several members return to their high schools during fall break and other holidays to discuss the advantages of Western Carolina." Western Gold students are called upon to give campus tours and answer questions concerning life in Cullowhee. "We try to be very honest when we answer questions concerning the cafeteria, dormitories, and things to do," says Melissa Cox, Western Gold Vice President for campus tours. While visiting the campus, students have the opportunity to eat in the cafeteria, view dormitory rooms, and become f amiliar with the academic facili- ties. According to Stephanie Freeman, Western Gold Vice President for open house, "The campus tour provides an excellent opportunity for the prospective students to become more familiar with the academic programs that Western Carolina offers." The 1989 Western Gold Open House will be held on October 21. Although campus tours are offered throughout the year, this occasion provides the best opportunity to meet faculty and staff. "Although it could not be arranged this year, we normally have a football game on Open House day to give the prospective students a feel for campus life," says Freeman. Western Gold holds an information fair in the Ramsey Center during each open house. Members of Western Gold are nominated by faculty, staff, and active members. Academic achievement, a positive attitude toward WCU, good communication skills, and a friendly personality are among the criteria. According to Bowman, "Most Western Gold students are heavily involved in campus life and maintain above a3.0QPR." It is considered an honor to be selected as a member of Western Gold. "I enjoy Western Gold because it gives me the opportunity to show my pride in Western Carolina. A lot of potential WCU students do not know of Western's quality and I enjoy expressing the quality of Western to these students," says Charles Baldwin, Western Gold member and a Resident Assistant for Walker Dormitory. Attributed in part to Western Gold is the high enrollment forthe fall of 1989. "Western Gold is a very productive group of people, and I feel that this organization played apart in the enrollment increase," says Freeman. Angela Reeves is the sponsor of the organization, which held an introductory meeting on September 25 in the University Center. Students who are interested in Western Gold can contact Reeves at 227-7317 or Bowman at 227- 7317. Their off ices are located on the 2nd floor of the Administration Building. WCU Art Professor Kelly Keeping Busy with International Interests Western Carolina University Associate Art Professor Perry Kelly could easily sum up the year 1989 in one word— busy. Kelly spoke at an international art education conference in Brazil, is currently serving as a juror in an international art award competition, and has several of his photographs on display in China. In August, Kelly gave a talk entitled "Developing Support for Arts Education" at a conference in Sao Paulo, Brazil. His speech was translated into Portuguese during the presenta tion. Also speaking at the conference were educators from Canada, Sweden, England, and Nigeria. During his nine days in Brazil, Kelly visited Rio de Janeiro and the capital city of Brasilia, where he photographed the architecture of Oscar Niemeyer. Inhisdutiesasajurorfor the World Cultural Council (Based in Monterey, Mexico), Kelly is reading the dossiers of 24 candidates worldwide for the Leonardo da Vinci award in the arts. The award includes a diploma, a medal, and $10,000, and will be presented in Novem ber at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Kelly has 10 color photographs in an exhibit in Beijing, China. Two of those photographs have been accepted in the "China's Year of the Dragon International Travel" competition. Kelly says his recent 'activities continue a lifelong international interest that has taken him to 29 countries. He is a member of the Friendship Force, the International Society for Education in the Arts, and he frequently hosts foreign visitors to WCU. The American Red Cross will be at the U. C.
