  • Volume 57 Number 8 Features The Western Carolinian Page 5 Thursday, October 3, 1991 Coping with war- related stress Chris Gunn Contributing Writer Only a few yellow ribbons remain in Cullowhee and Sylva to remind us of how the lives of hundreds of thousands of our neighbors, friends, and family members were altered drastically to participate in the Gulf War. Service personnel returning from military stations in this country and abroad typically find the transition back to civilian life more difficult than they might have guessed. Picking up where one left off with friends, family, jobs, and school work is not easy after having spent several weeks or months away from home, active in a completely different daily routine with other service personnel who became one's intimate allies. In the August 1991 issue of American Psychologist, a task force of the American Psychological Association (APA) addressed "war-related stress" that potentially adds to the expected stress of any transition. Troops who served in combat and non-combat zones, as well as their loved ones, might experience in the months following the war's end a variety of stress reactions. Some expected reactions include: (1) sleep problems; (2) excessive alcohol or drug use; (3) difficulty concentrating; (4) blunting of emotions; (5) msurges of depression, anxiety, and anger; (6) stress-related physical pains (e.g., headaches, digestive upset, backaches); and (7) withdrawal from friends. As with most stress reactions, many of these symptoms are Business law prof "enjoys work for organization" If you're looking for West- em Carolina University business law professor Dan Herron, chances are you won't find him working in his office. Herron is likely to be working at a computer down the hall writing the Academy of Legal Studies in Business (ALSB) newsletter. Or planning the 1,000-member organization's annual meeting. Or corresponding with members. Call it a sideline, but Herron's position as executive secretary of the Academy of Legal Studies in Business carries many responsibilities. He publishes the newsletter three times a year — a 20 page edition in the fall, winter, and spring with articles ranging from salary surveys to personal news and information about the field of business law. Herron also arranges the August annual conference, which is attended by one-third of the members and is the forum for presentations of some 250 academic papers and numerous programs. He edited the 1990 conference proceedings — 50 out of 240 papers submitted — and will take on that job for the 1991 conference he just returned from in Portland, Maine. Plus he maintains the ALSB's records and mailing list. All that is in addition to his teaching, research and writing responsibilities as an associate professor of administrative services at Western. "I consider this my service area, and I enjoy the work for the professional organization," Herron says. "Itallowsmetokeepabreastof what others in the field are doing. There's a certain amount of isolation because most schools just have one or two business law professors." The recent four-day conference in Maine was the largest in the organization's history, with 357 registrants, 260 academic paper presentations and 15 panel discussions. There, the group voted to change its name from American Business Law Association to the Academy of Legal Studies in Business to reflect changes and the evolving nature of business law, Herron said. The professional organization publishes two academic journals, the quarterly American Business Law Journal and the semiannual Journal of Legal Studies in Education. The academy pays Herron a stipend and expenses from its $110,000 annual budget. He was appointed to the three-year term as executive secretary in June 1990, before coming to WCU in the fall of that year from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. He previously taught at the University of Wyoming. Herron holds a bachelor's degree in English from Miami Uni versity (Ohio) and a law degree from Case Western Reserve University. He practiced law and was a prosecutor in Ohio, where he was bom and raised, and he "fell into teaching" nine years ago at Bowling Green State University. Herron calls WCU's program "oneof the premier legal studies programs in the country." The newsletter has been an unofficial springboard advancing it. "Most business schools offer only enough law courses so students can write a brief," he says. "Western has carved out a new area in business—gener- alists with a law emphasis." Where many schools offer two to four business law courses, Western has 20, ranging from consumer law to athletics and real estate law, and WCU is one of a handful of schools offering a major in business administration and law, he says. The program has about 80 majors, allowing for close faculty- student interaction, he says. The faculty includes Mary Anne Nixon, whose specialty iscon- tract logistics; Claude Teagarden, an expert on sports law; Herron, whose area is employment law and jurisprudence theory; and Le Von Wilson,anew faculty memberfrom N.C. A&T University. The business law program is in the department of administrative services and marketing, headed by Retha Kilpatrick. The blend of business and law is in demand among employers, Herron says. Graduates have obtained entry-level management positions in retail, insurance and real estate businesses, as well as in personnel administration, management, communications, marketing and human resource development. Some attend law school or graduate school. "Businesses need students who are generalists, not lawyers, who can troubleshoot even if it just means getting on the phone to a corporate attorney," Herron says. "With the continuing rise in litigation, companies are interested in managers with a sensitivity to the law." MILK BACK TO THE BASICS. the body's way of coping with changes. The symptoms may be mild and short-lived. If the symptoms are severe and/or persist and it feels like R-E-L-I-E-F is not in sight, then certain strategies may be in order. The APA task force notes that an effecting coping strategy often is to assist others in solving their problems. Becoming part of someone else's solution gives the stressed person a new sense of mastery and meaning. Helping others in need, volunteer work, or tutoring a friend can reduce feelings of being a victim and increase feelings of self-worth and confidence. The task force also notes the importance of the sense of support and community. Close friends or family who can provide emotional support are key in weathering transitional storms. A larger support system (e.g., church, athletic team, social group) is also key in re-establishing some of the feelings of com munity, safety, and belonging that service personnel usually experience intensely while serving during times of war and miss in returning to civilian life. Professional counseling services are another option that the task force recommends for those who so choose. Our counseling center offers both individual and group counseling for students — safe and confidential places for students to talk about their unique stress reactions and to get some assistance in achieving some R-E-L-I-E-F. In an effort to provide an opportunity for returning service personnel to establish a community support network and to help each other, WCU's Counseling and Psychological Services is now in the process of organizing a Gulf War Transition Support Group. If you have an interest in this group or any of our services, call 227-7469, Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. "Waiting for Godot" plot has many interpretations Kimberlee Shively Features Writer Monday night marked the debut of Samuel Beckett's "Waiting For Godot at the Theatre at Cullowhee. Directed by Lawrence Hill, department head for theater arts, and held in Hoey Auditorium at 7:30 p.m., the play will run through Saturday. The set consists of a county road, a tree, and a colored background. The country road is painted over a road map and disappears into the background. The stage is a very small area and the two main characters are confined to this small space. The only other permanent fixture on the stage is a sad looking tree. The costumes seem to contribute to the set, as they are simple and not very colorful. The cast of actors is small and simple. The whole play is put on by five people, three males and two females. However, the characters in the play are all males. The people playing these parts were cast well by the director. After seeing the play, a viewer may have many interpretations derived from the dialogue. The characters spend the entire play waiting for Godot. Godot could be interpreted as a religious figure, a non- religious higher being, or the characters have monotonous lives, so by waiting for Godot, they could be waiting for something to break the monotonous of their lives.
