  • Western Caroliijiaij Cullowhee, NC The Voice Of the Catamounts Volume 59 Number 24 IFC probes charity scam Blake Frizzell Associate Editor Approximately 3:30 pm near Howell Mill Road on Russ Avenue in Waynesville, several males claiming to be with a fraternity from WCU were soliciting funds with buckets marked "The American Red Cross." This is a common scenealongthestreetsofWaynesville. Jean Davis, Haywood County Red Cross Director, recognized that the persons did not have permission to solicit funds and questioned them about their authority. After vaguely telling Davis they didn't know where they had gotten permission, Davis asked the men to stop their solicitations. The men stopped soliciting. However, there is no clue as to who these persons are, whether they are actually from WCU or in a fraternity. "Officials at WCU said they were unaware thatanyfraternity was involved with the solicitation of funds" according to a recent report conducted by Dawn Wilson of the Waynesville Mountaineer. Gene McAbee, director of Public Safety at WCU, had no prior knowledge of the event. "It's very possible itmay not be one of our groups doing it," said Dr. Bill Haggard of WCUs Student Development Office. The Inter-Fraternity Council is looking into the matter, and any disciplinary action wil 1 depend on the results of the investigation. "If it's happening" Haggard said, "I want to know about it." Haggard also said he didn't See "Red Cross," page 2 s% Io minutes with freshman Brian Edlin. see page 5. Reynolds voices his side of story Rachel Ramsey Associate Editor Dr. James Reynolds, assistant professor of geology, has come under a lot of fire recently about his input in the February 15 issue of the Wall Street Journal. The article highlighted problems facing academia today and gave Western what some felt was a negative review. The article, entitled "Class Struggle: Young Professors Find Life in Academia Isn't What It Used to Be, " compared an "unheralded"WCUwith "sylvan" Colgate University of Hamilton, New York. Reynolds was cited, butnotquoted,ascom- mentingon Western's "unsophisticated student body, outdated equipment and lim ited funding for research." The seemingly negativeattitude towards WCUbyoneofitsownpofessorshascreated quite a stir around campus, but Reynolds claims it's not so. "The overwhelming majority of people that have come forward to me have said it's a good article, that mere's nothing in there that isn't true. That was my reaction when I read it the first time. I saw "unheralded" and "unsophisticated" andthought, 'I wouldn't have used those words,' but those were the only two words I really picked out. I also wouldn't have used the word 'foothills,' but then, as a geologist, I know these are not foothills!" Still, faculty and students alike have disagreed with Reynolds. The article has been deemed as an unfair comparison of universities, and some feel that Tony Horowitz, author of the "Class Struggle" article, misrepresented WCU to better contrast against Colgate and that Reynolds, a first year professor, was an inadequate source of information about Western. Horowitz interviewed Reynolds because his career history illustrates the problems facing professors today. Reynolds was a professor for five years at Norwich Uni- See "Reynolds," page 2 WCU hosts Estonian public officials Seven mayors and county off icials from Estonia will visit western North Carolina and Western Carolina University March 31 through April 5. They will be here as part of a United States Information Agency study tour. An open house, to which the public is invited, will be held at the Center for Improving Mountain Living (Bird Building) on Monday, April 4, at 730 p.m. The open housewillaffordfaculty,staff and students, as well as the general public, the opportunity to meet the visitors and discuss conditions in Estonia and Eastern Europe. Two interpreters from the U.S. State Department will be travelling with the group. The mayors are coming to the U.S. to learn more about municipal governments and how they operate. The theme for their western North Carolina visit is Government Operations in a Rural Area. Estonia gained independence from Russia in 1918 after the Bolshevik Revolution. However,in 1940itwas annexed to the USSR and was governed by the strong centralized Soviet government. In 1991, with the d issol u tion of the USSR, Estonia became an independent nation once again. The country is now governed by Esto- nians, a distinct ethnic group. Asofthel989 census, Russians made up 30% of Estonia's overall population. The visiting mayors come from towns in Estonia where Russians make up a significant portion of the population. These towns are facing a twofold problem: (1) the shift from a centralized government and (2) the need to use their own resources for regional development since the central government concentrates its development efforts on population centers in which ethnic Estonians are in the See "Estonia," page 2 Student reported missing Joseph W. Shiver Staff Reporter Robert Grant Montgomery, a former WCU student, has been missing since February 18. Hewas last seen leaving his job at Beech Mountain Ski Resort. OnFebruary22 police officers found his truck at a secluded campsitenearLinvilleGorge,butthey could find no sign of Montgomery. Police officers called off a search on Saturday, March 12, ' after searching the gorge and surrounding areas for over fivehours. The search party was made up of Burke County deputies and officers and per- ^^^^^^^^^^^^ sonnel from the U.S. forest service. There were over sixteen officers and volunteers using dogs and helicopters. The search party climbed cliffs and searched trails in and around a three mile radius of the gorge in hopes of finding him. Grant, as he was known to his friends and family, was a student last semester at WCU. He had taken spring semester off to workatBeech Mountain and to snowboard. He was planning on returning to Western this coming fall. Apparently Montgomery received a troubling phone call and left after work on the afternoon of February 18. He has not been heard from since. Authorities are worried because statistics show it is hard to survive more than four days in the gorge without adequate preparation, and there has been extensive snow, ice and rain since he was reported missing. BurkeCounty Deputy Lee Turner, who led the search, said, "We covered the whole area pretty good. You could walk around here forever. We gave this a 110 percent effort. We did everything we could to find him." M0NK3CMERY
