4 November 1993 'estern Carobnkn Cullowhee, NC The Voice of the Catamounts Volume 59 Number 9 Western After Hours holds second 'bitch session1 Jordana Stephens Staff Reporter Bitch Til You Drop was held from seven until nine last Thursday evening in the lobby of Helder hall. The goal of this sequel was to air more student and faculty gripes and to help find solutions to them. The session was again organized by Western After Hours. Quite a few of the faculty members who were at the first bitch session also attended this one: Dr. Paul Brandt, Dr. Scott Sportsman, Dr. Daryl Ha le, Dr. Terry Kinnear, Mr. John Walters, Mrs. Angela Murphy-Walters. None of the students from the previous session showed up for the second round. However, there were at least seven students who did attend. One of the first gripes was about the lack of places to rollerblade. Jamie Davidson, a sophomore CIS major, explained to the group that there is only one place where rollerbladers can skate, the baseball field parking lot. The ice rink by Ramsey Center, other parking lots and different areas were considered for rollerblading. However, it is the WCU administration that decides where people can rollerblade. The problem of change machines was also discussed. There are no change machines other than in the UC and the library. A few students wondered what they were supposed to do if they needed change after these places closed. Some of them ask people on their hall if they have change. Having change machines in the dorms was one suggestion. There has been SGA legislation on this subject for a few years now. Some of the professors who attended the session wanted to know if students felt Western is too easy. Many students re sponded that they felt that a lot of the general education requirements seem like an extension of high school. Some courses help prepare students for having an open mind, even though they do not use the material much once the course is finished. Those students who have taken some courses in their major have realized the amount of work these classes entail and do not find many of them effortless. As for math classes, a couple of students complained about the over-abundant use of calculators in some of the courses. One of those courses is Calculus. See 'Bitch' page 4 Improvement referendum passes Rachel Ramsey News Editor Thanks to voters across the state, including 3,458 from Jackson Coilnty and 668 from our very own Cullowhee precinct, the North Carolina Bond Referendum was passed on November 2. The bond package will appropriate $35 million for State Parks Bonds, $145 million for Clean Water Bonds, $250 million for Community College Bonds and,most importantly, $310 million for University Improvement Bonds. Dahli Llama (Ann Johnson, Bill Kirch, Tara Busch, Jason Ramirez, Trey Walker) comes to Bailey's Thursday November 18 to hold a "CD release" party. Fifteen CD's will be given to the first 15 people in the door. Out of the $310 million, Western Carolina University will recieve$9.6 million in bonds to go toward the completion of Belk, and the renovations of Reid Gymnasium, Moore Hall, and Camp Lab School as follows: Completion of Belk Building and Asbestos Removal - $3,280,200. The project would include improvement of the heating and air- conditioning system and removal of asbestos. Reid Gymnasium Renovation - $2,379/400. Theprojectwould provide renovation of existing office spaces and general inno- vationoftheotherareasofthebuilding, includ ing replacement of fire-alarm systems and upgrading heating and ventilation systems control. Renovate Moore Hall, Phase II - $2£43,900. This project would renovate the vacant third floor of this building for use as classrooms and as the home of WCU's new program in physical therapy. This space, vacant for more then two decades, currently exists as it was constructed in 1924 for dormitory use. Camp Laboratory School Renovations - See 'Bond' page 2 Radio station adopts new name: Power 91 hits air waves Sherry Bradley Staff Reporter WCU's radio station (Z-91) became "Power-91", changing its name and im age on November 1 at 5pm. "It was time for a change," Eddie Foxx, head of press relations for the stations said. "We had been 'the most music Z-91' for two years and it was getting old." Foxx said the radio stations needed a new image. The idea was presented at an executive staff meeting last spring and agreed upon by program director, Brad Smith. Mctyre awarded fellowship to study Cherokee History BARBARA ANN McTYRE (photo by ASB) Barbara Ann McTyre of Powder Springs, Georgia, has been awarded a prestigious graduate fellowship to study Cherokee Indian historyatWesternCarolina University. McTyre, a first-year graduate student at WCU, was awarded the Lucy Ann Nordyke Fellowship, an award designed to promote the study of Cherokee history. The renewable award is in the amount of $1,400. She will be working closely with William L. Anderson, professor of history at WCU and a leading expert on Cherokee history. "I was very pleased with the award, in that it will enable me to pursue a dream I have had since 1987—to study Cherokee history," said McTyre. Contributing to her interest in Native American studies is the fact that she has a bit of Cherokee and Seminole ancestry in her own bloodline. "When my grandfa ther found out there was Seminole in his background, my great-grandmother threatened to disown him if he told anyone," said McTyre, illustrating the strong emotional dynamic that once accompanied a Native American heritage. McTyre graduated from Georgia State University in December 1992 with a bachelor's degree in history. After finishing work on her master's degree in history See McTyre page 4
