  • Volume 56 Number 17 News Thp Western Carolinian Page 2 Thursday, February 7, 1991 Police suggest they may have found Florida killer GAINESVILLE, Fla. (CPS) - While refusing to say he's about to charge someone with the murders of five students in and around the University of Florida campus last August, Gainesville Police Chief Wayland Clifton suggested Jan. 24 that his department may have solved the case. Responding to questions that police have settled on Louisiana resident Danny Rolling, 36, jailed in Ocala, Fla., on robbery charges since September, as a prime suspect in the murders, Clifton said, "I think the community can feel at great ease at this point." Cal State-Chico drops spring party CHICO, Calif. (CPS) - Local business sponsors of Rancho Chico Days said Jan. 23 they would scrap the annual spring festival, which has been plagued by riots and hard-to-controi hordes of collegians who descend on the town to party. More than 100 college students were arrested during last spring's festival. Hoping to stop annual student outdoor festivals that have degenerated into drunken melees and confrontations with police, officials in Fort Collins, Colo., and Santa Barbara, Calif., have quit hosting the parties in recent years. Stanford gives back $500,000 to the federal government STANFORD, Calif. (CPS) - Stanford University President Donald Kennedy said Jan. 23 he would return about $500,000 in federal research funds that were used to maintain three campus residences, including Kennedy's house. Earlier in January, Stanford admitted using about $ 186,000 in government funds - meant to cover overhead expenses incurred as Stanford scientists performed research for the federal government - that auditors found had been used to maintain three university boats. In 1990, Office of Naval Research investigator Paul Biddle accused Stanford of overcharging the government by as much as $200 million that went to pay of such things as football tickets and athletic gear. Minnesota 'teacher of the year1 loses her job FRIDLEY, Minn. (CPS) - In another sign of the ongoing crisis in stale funding of schools, Fridley High School laid off social studies teacher Cathy Nelson, named three months ago as the state's teacher of the year, because of budget cuts. Elsewhere, University of Arizona may turn down thermostats, stop grooming campus lawns, dismantle "one or two sports" and even lay off some teaching assistants lo cope with Gov. Rose Mofford's request that all slate agencies cut their budgets by 3 percent immediately, state Board of Regents Executive Director Molly Broad said. UA has had six midyear budget cuts in the last nine years, Broad added. Virginia grads don't want to switch to women RICHMOND, Va. (CPS) - About 500 alumni and "friends'of Virginia Military Institute staged a mid- January lobbying assault on the state legislature, asking lawmakers not to force all-male VMI to start admitting women. A bill sponsored by state Sen. Emilie Miller would ban sex discrimination at state-supported schools. The federal government in 1990 told VMI its admissions policies illegally barred women. In April, a federal court is scheduled to start hearing VMI's arguments why its prohibition of women does not violate federal anti-discrimination rules. The Citadel in South Carolina is the only other state-supported exclusively male campus in the U.S. Courtesy of College Press Service Western adds sixty-five to "Who's Who" Sixty-five Western Carolina University students will be listed in the 1991 edition of "Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges."
