"Dig", continued from Front page weather made for poor working conditions." Moore believes appreciation should go to the 125 volunteers who helped with the excavations. "People came from as far away as Raleigh and Atlanta. We also had Western students and students from Appalachian as well as all the locals. Over 2,000 hours were spent at the dig," said Moore. When asked if the rest of the site will be uncovered, Moore said that as of yet, labor and finance are in slim supply. Moore and WCU professor Dr. Anne Rogers plan to teach a class on analyzing artifacts. There are 100 boxes of artifacts from the Cullowhee site, and some of these will be used in the laboratory. Moore insists that the excavations already completed on the Cullowhee site are "just the beginning." "This site represents all Native American history in this area," said Moore. "There are more sites all over the Cullowhee Valley." SGA last meeting of '92; pass 4, drop 1 Ellen Furey ^^^^^^^^ StaffWriter Western's student government met Tuesday, Dec. 1, in the Catamount Room of the Hinds University Center. The meeting, the last to be held this semester, passed fourresolu- tions and failed one. Resolution 1460, changing meal cards to university cards that could be used in laundry machines and at the bookstore, was passed. Townhouse Restaurant in Cullowhee was removed from the resolution due to strict government regulations. Student government also passed resolution 1461, installing electronic bulletins in die residence dorms in order to inform students about campus and Last Minute Production'seventsandstudentgov- emment information. The placement of emergency phones in die freshman parking lots, resolution 1467, was passed also. These phones will not be able to dial local numbers and will only be for emergency use. "This will increase the visibility of campus police and will be an effective deterrent towards crime in the parking lots," said Senator Courtney Montross. Resolution 1471, cars that are no longer allowed on campus due to parking violations may park in the baseball field lot, was introduced in new business. The rules were suspended, and the resolution was passed right away. Placing pay phones outside the residence halls, resolution 1462, failed in student government. The phone company, GTE, is in charge of placing phones on campus. Two ad-hoc committees were formed to deal with students' concerns regarding security on campus, traffic issues and university food services. Students are encouraged to inform the senators of dieir concerns by calling Senator Jeff Sykes at 586- 5576. "Cafeteria" cont. from page 1 healthy, no matter what I choose in the cafeteria," stated student April Peeler. In retrospect, Ward says, "I will try a little harder on it, but I don't think the students can say the food is unhealthy. We've got fresh produce and nutritional entrees." S tudents don' t seem to agree with Ward. "Recycled, reused, inedible food, fake butter, fake sour cream, and fake catsup; that's what is in the cafeteria," one student said. What about food reruns? Ward says there is a policy on leftovers. "If you throw it away, you waste it. If it's good enough to serve, you serve it," stated Ward. "Meats can be rerun. Our policy is that they be rerun in three days. We can freeze it for three days, or it can be used the next day." One student's reaction to this information was, "You mean I'm eating food that could have been already served and three days old?" As for the cafeteria employees, many seem unhappy and feel they are treated unfairly. One problem is that Ward takes money out of every worker's paycheck at the end of every month. This money is for the meals the employees eat while working. "One of the workers doesn't even eat the food and asked Ward not to take money out of their paycheck, but he still takes the money," explains one cafeteria employee. When asked about this, Ward stated, "Yes, I do take money out of all the checks. For most of the workers, they get a deal. "The way I see it is, if diey don't eat here, they don't work here. This is not one of die bestjobs around, but it's not one of the worst," continued Ward. "Fora lotof people, ithas been a good job to raise families on." Another concern among Western students is the problem of high prices. Cecil Ward sets prices for all items in the cafeteria. One cafeteria employee stated, "It's ridiculous that students should have to pay $ 1.00 for a pack of Werther's Originals when they can get it sixty-nine cents at the store." "We would rather not sell the candy. We have students save money until the last minute and come down and buy a truckload of that stuff, which is not good for anybody," Ward said. He also commented, "You have students whose parents give them all the things in the world. They go down the street and eat wherever they want, whenever they want. Some keep food in their room. That type of person will buy the candy." One thing Ward prides himself on is the neatness and organization of the cafeteria. "I am very proud of this place, the Marriott claims they've never been in a place this clean." A tour of the cafeteria (given by Ward) behind the scenes and in the warehouse verified that the food operation is very clean and organized. Upon leaving the cafeteria, after interviewing Ward, one cafeteria worker warned, "Don't believe a word he says. He really knows how to snow people, and he'll do it in a heartbeat." iPaulMitchel fexils#" ►Matrix .: fcagje 1 Biolage^ toont Tanning Bed Featu; TrfREE TANNINC BEDS!
