  • Page 4 News September 30,1993 Western Carolinian Cullowhee Pizza Hut offers new buffet Students try out new buffet at Pizza Hut (photo by ASB) Jennifer Hawkins StaffReporter To break the monotony of campus dining, Pizza Hut is offering a variety of foods at a price that's affordable to college students. Pizza Hut's new luncheon buffet that started Monday, September 13, has been a success. Faster even than the five minute personal pan, the buffet begins at 11:00am and continues until 1:30pm Monday through Friday. One may choose between six different pizzas, pastas, bread sticks, dessert bread sticks, garden or ceasarsaladsandthenewestdessertpizza, which is apple pizza with crumb topping and icing. Mike Moses, shift supervisor says,"It's going over real well with the students and the locals. It's helped our business a whole lot, and for $3.99, it even fits a college budget." It does seem to be a hit with the college students. Erik Bijvank, a graduate of WCU, goes often. He said that it's "good food for the value of what you pay." He did have one complaint. "They need more pasta because it's very good!" he stated. Jennifer Lee Goforth, accompanying Bijvank, said,"I like it. It's good, and it's fast." Moses said that an average of 100 people come through every afternoon which calls for about 35-40 pizzas on the bar daily. Food is rotated every 15 minutes to ensure freshness. Lenny Furman,District Manager of Pizza Hut, guarantees that all dishes are prepared as if they had been personally ordered by you at your table. He assures that the quality of the buffet is the same as the dishes purchased at full price. Pizza Hut is charging $3.99 per person. Children 3-12 years old get in for $1.99. Kids under 3 year are free. The buffet is dine-in only. 'Bitch' cont'd from front page to studying. Even Walker, the honors dorm, is not as peaceful as the faculty assumed it would be. There are a few places where students can study successfully, such as private homes (preferred by graduate students) and large lobbies like the one in Buchanan where this discussion was held. However, these places seem limited. The topic of general education requirements was brought up by Dr. Scott Sportsman of the mathematics department. Although some students feel they are unnecessary at times, the faculty feel that some of the classes are essential background for upper-level courses. To many students, the professors who teach general education classes do not seem to like teaching them. The professors in the group explained that the frustration of those teaching general education courses stems from the students' apathy and lack of discipline. The professors think the students don't want to make the effort based on their attitudes toward the general education courses. A few ideas that may be implemented in any course could be concentration on points rather than strengths, a focus on the skills of students coming from different learning styles and more emphasis on study skills. The book rental system was the last gipe during the discussion. Many students said that they would like to buy certain textbooks after the semester is over. One graduate student said he was told when he was an undergraduate that he could not buy any of his texts to keep. Another student felt that the rental system doesn't teach students responsibility because they can do almost anything to a book during the semester and then turn it in at the end. Overall, the session provided a successful forum for airing complaints and producing solutionsfor change. Although there were only 12 people there, it was a powerful group discussion. Dr. Gunn, as coordinator, said he felt "the session went real well." And, he added, "Although some students were there to observe, they also became very involved in the discussion." Those involved in Western After Hours mentioned having another session in the future. LAST MINUTE PRODUCTIONS WEEKLY to <+ EVENTS..JBAKE A^ NOTE TO BE THERE
