Western Carolinian March 24, 1994 News 3 SGA gets back to business of being busy Jafaar Nyang'oro ' Staff Reporter Spring mid-term break served as an excellent opportunity for the Senate and SGA leadership to relax before returning to a busy schedule. After thelO-day recess, the Senate went on to pass some more bills and resolutions. SGA passed a bill requesting that the student phone directory be published each semester. This measure is expected to cope withthe rate at which students shift from one dorm to another every semester. SGA acknowledged the urgent need to keep proper track of each and every student. Two clubs were also approved. These WCU hosts open house Up to 1800 expected to tour campus Neal Braswell Staff Reporter Spring is right around the corner and so is the time to welcome new students to Western's campus. The 1994 Spring Open House is scheduled for April 9. It is an all day, campus-wide recruiting activity and a time for faculty and students to work together to facilitate interest in Western Carolina. There are many ways that students at Western help with Open House. A hand picked, elite group of Western's students, called 'Western Gold," help with recruiting activities all day. These students volunteer to assist the Admissions office. They are well-rounded, highly involved in campus activities and in good academic standing. "Western Gold" students give campus tours to the different school groups and answer general questions from students and parents. Smdentewhoarenotrriembersof,'West- ernGold" can also help with Open House in a variety of different ways. Selling meal tickets, baseball tickets and helping with parking to name a few. The day will start off with registration and general information about the college. Then there willbeawelcomesession, where University Administrators and of ficials will speak to our newcomers. At 9:30 am an information fair will oc- curintheconcourseofRamseyCenter. This is where representatives from the different schools on campus will set up tables with information about the requirements of the schools and the educational options they offer to students. Tours of the campus conducted by "Western Gold" will begin after lunch. Dur ing the tours, "Western Gold" members will offer general information about the campus and facts about educational opportunities. Parents and students will have a chance to see the facilities and meet some of the faculty. To top off the day there will be a baseball double-header after lunch, where Western will take on Virginia Military Institute. Administrators are expecting a large turnout for Open House this year. Anita Lytle from the Admissions office said that Open House has been very successful over the last few years. "Last fall we had the largest open house ever," she said. According to Ms. Lytle, 1300 incoming freshmen, transfer students and parentsattendedOpenHouseinthefall of 1993. Durmont Bowman, director of Admissions, said that 1994 has been a good year for early applications at Western and for students submitting early room deposits. Last year there were 645 students submitted early room deposits. This year there was a 60% increase, where 1,028 early room deposits were submitted. Students are a big part of Open House each year, and there are many ways for them to help with Spring Open House 1994. Durmont Boman said that Open House is a day for incoming students and parents to get a feel for what Western is all about. "Open House is a really special day when faculty, staff and students will host students coming to visit," Boman stated. He went on to say that he would like for students, when they see their interested friends over Easter weekend, to keep in mind that Open House is scheduled for thefirstSatur- day after Easter. Students interested in helping with Open House should contact the Admissions office for more information. are The Graduate Business Students Association and Student Organization for Adult People (SOAP). The former will deal with business issues. The latter is mainly a recreational club of non-traditional students that will sponsor and/or co-sponsor events and trips. One of its objectives is to help people get away from stress by providing them with something fun to do. Membership to these clubs is open to anyone who is interested. All currently registered clubs are requested to present their constitutions in the office of the SGA vice-president no later than this week. Student Government will review the eligibility standard of the clubs before approving their funding. The issue of extending visitation hours in residence halls also appeared on the agenda. According to Brett Fansler, vice- president of SGA, his government has forwarded the proposal to the Housing Office. Under the new plan, visitationhours would start earlier than 12 noon on weekdays and last through 4 am on weekends. This is in response to the constant complaints from students who demand the extension of visitation hours in the residence halls. The SGA also considered the heating problems in Harrill residence hall. Brought up by Senator Bob Hodges, it is alledged "Quilts" cont'd from front conducted a series of research projects for the McKissick Museum at the University of South Carolina.

For more information, call the Mountain Heritage Center at 227-7129. that the heating system in Harrill doesn't function properly and is probably out of order. The passed bill requests the improvement and up-grading of the system. In addition, the SGA put forward the consideration of having Marriott provide "an all-you-can-eat buffet" at least once a week. This is being done in other campuses, and it's student government's opinion to see it xhappen here. However, all the passed bills and resolutions depend on if it is financially possible by me college administration. Available statistics reveal that the current SGA government has been more busy than the previous leadership. This is based on the number of resolutions passed so far. Up to the moment, the SGA has recorded an increase of 200 percent on the total number of resolutions put on the floor since assuming power last year. "In contrast to the total number of only 29 resolutions passed in 1992/93, the 1993/94 government has recorded 89 resolutions so far with still a couple of weeks to go before surrendering power to the in-coming leadership. Brett Fansler, the vice-president of SGA said that he is very impressed and would like to express his sincere thanks to the outgoing government for accomplishing their duty to the utmost degree.
