  • The Western Carolinian Page 4 Thursday, November 19, 1992 Voices Volume 58 Number 14 Letters to the Editor Student angered at feeling second best Laura L. Adams Editor-in-Chief RSA Dear Editor: I am writing to inform our campus about the accomplishments our Resident Student Association had this past weekend(Oct.30-Nov.l). Western attended the annual South Atlantic Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls conference was held at the University of Tennessee - Knoxville. This conference involves nine states, about 47 schools, and around 800 students and advisors. The conference consisted of programs concerning an area of residence hall life. The program put on by Western students involved the importance of people getting to know one another and interacting with one another. Each program was then evaluated. Western's program, "Hop, Skip, and Jump Through Rainbows" (Going along with the conference theme, "Where the Rainbows Connect...The Leaders, The Dreamers, and Me!) was chosen as a top ten program presented that weekend. This is fantastic! The presenters were Brenda Gallagher, Brad Lewis, Brian Simpson, and Virginia Rynk. Also, Brenda Gallagher was recognized as a student of the month (April). Congratulations Brenda! Everyone did a great job at the conference. Other delegates were Stephen Spangler, Corey Moore, Karen Styles, Dawn Lail, and George Swindoll and Lisa Sons(our Advisors). Please support your your RSA. We are here for you. Thank you, Virginia Rynk RSA Vice-President Cecil Ward and Myron Coulter: It is bad enough that we, the students, have to face the filthy eating conditions at P.G. Katz snack bar, but now we have been made aware, by the cafeteria workers, no less, that the people who contribute the most money to this University come second behind catered functions. Granted, Dodson and Brown cafeterias are extremely sterile compared to the conditions at P.G. Katz, but the food itself is unhealthy, unappetizing, and literally runs right through you!!! We, the students, pay way too much for : #1 - The limited hours to receive food. (Are we only expected to eat before lpm or after 4pm on the weekends? This is a "suitcase college, but the students who do stay here need to eat too. Not to mention that Dodson cafeteria is open until 6:20pm only.) #2 - The quality of food. (Other state supported schools have all-you-can-eat buffets, soup bars all the time, salad bars all the time, nacho bars, vegetarian bars, deli bars, food which is digestible. Every time that I have visited other schools, everyone looks at me like a fool, because I ohh and ahh over the food, as well as go back several times for the free extra helpings.) #3 - We are forced to give the remainder of our money left on our meal cards to the University, at the end of the semester. What do they do with that money, anyway? It is certainly not spent to better the food service. And another question. Why on Mountain Heritage Day, Homecoming, Open House, Parents Day, etc. are the food services open all day, with better food than usual? My par ents aren't stupid, they see how much weight I've lost, and how much I eat when I come home. The "Freshman 15" went down the toilet along with the rest of the food I have eaten at WCU. There's no need for Nutri System, we have Cecil! I, along, with several other people, am considering moving off campus, the main reason being the food. WCU is going to lose money by treating the students this way. I could go on forever, about the frigidly cold food, or the rock hard buns, or the no taste desserts, but I think everyone already knows too well, and would probably rather forget. If both the students, as well as the workers are disgusted with the food service, then what are we waiting for? I encourage other students to voice your opinions as well, because that is the only way we can make a change! Someone needs to wake up and smell the not-so- good to the last drop, cheap as hell coffee! Sincerely, On the verge of PUKING! Downed goal post display of school spirit Dear Editor, I would like to start by saying congratulations to the Western football team for beating E.T.S.U.. From what I remember, it was a great game. With this, I come to my reason for writing to the editor. As everyone knows, the much talked about goal-post came down. I was the unlucky victim that was hit in the head when it finally broke. I received nine stitches and a fractured nose, and am I complaining? NO! Am I bringing a law suit? NO! Why? Because it was my own choice to go on the field to show some school spirit. I think it is great that students could get that fired up about the football program; considering, we have not really had anything to get fired up about in recent years. SO WHAT if the goal-post costs 3,000 dollars? The University can come up with the money if it really wants it to be fixed. I paid my money to come here, and if I want to tear down the goal-post, then damnit, I'll tear them down! I have only two questions to ask the University. First, if they are so worried about money, dien why did they pay some person over-time to grease the goal-posts with Crisco? The money they spent was obviously wasted, because the post came down anyway. The only thing that came out of their greasing was a couple of painful injuries. I feel that this was foolish of the school to do because the students were simply showing some school spirit, something that Coach Hodgins has been wanting from the students for a long time. Well, Coach, you got it... This leaves me with one last question. Why did the Campus Police act as violently as they have these past two weekends? I was an eye-witness to many officers hitting and choking students! This absolutely is not proper conduct for an officer unless his/her life is in danger, and these officers' lives were not in danger. I feel that they acted irresponsibly...they were way out- of-line. Officers are supposed to have higher standards than oth ers, they are supposed to be an example to the public. These past two home games, the police have looked more like gangsters or payed thugs than police. I feel that the University should take a hard look at how they handled this situation and ask themselves if this is really the type of example they want to set. I just wanted the students to know the whole story because I believe that they, of all people, have the right to know . In the future, we should show even more spirit if we feel like it and tear down both goal-posts! I give two hands to the football team and lets go kick the shit out of Appy. State!!!
