September 15, 1994 Western Carolinian News WCU Experiences An Increase In Faculty Cindy A. Cavanaugh William F Danaher Colleen Vasconcellos Associate Editor Several new faces, nineteen to be exact, have joined the ranks of WCU's faculty. In this column, which will run throughout the semester, these new members will be introduced. Our first four are as follows: Cindy A. Cavanaugh, who received her Ed.D. from the University of Georgia, has recently joined the Phys. Ed. department as a visiting instructor of health, physical education, and recreation. Cavanaugh has been an instructor at both Cleveland State University and Baldwin Wallace College in the past. William F. Danaher, who received his M.S. from North Carolina State University, joined our illustrious faculty as a visiting professor of social work and sociology. Previously, Danaher was a research assistant at North Carolina State University. Gloria S. Houston, who received her Ph.D. from the University of South Florida, joins the Department of Education as a visiting assistant professor of elementary education and reading. Before coming to WCU, Houston was an author-in-residence at the University of South Florida. And last but not least, Chris M. Tuten, who received his Ph.D. at the University of South Carolina. Tuten joins the Phys. Ed. department as an assistant professor of heath, physical education, and recreation. He was previously an assistant professor at Armstrong State College in Savannah. 1994 Graduating Seniors Surveyed On Experiences Does this logo look familiar? If so, you may be one of many Western Carolina University students who have completed surveys for the Western Carolina University Assessment Office. Your participation in these surveys, which are given during freshman and transfer orientation and graduation, provides the Assessment Office with valuable information about yourself, your expectations of college life and your experiences as a student of the university. In May and August, the Assessment Office collected surveys from graduating seniors during the commencement rehearsal. Listed below are the results of the 1994 graduating senior surveys. •93% of graduating seniors would recommend WCU to others, while 91% would recommend their major to others. •87% are satisfied with Western's library facilities. •86% of the 1994 graduates would choose Western Carolina if they could begin their university studies again. 80% would choose the same major. •80% of seniors learned to respect the views of others and 75% learned to be more sensitive to the feelings of others. •78% believe they have gained self- confidence through their experiences at Western and 78% believe they acquired leadership skills. •74% believe Western Carolina's faculty cares about its students. •73% felt that their college experiences helped them to establish their own personal identity. Chris M. Tuten •73% said they improved their study skills while 79% felt they built a record of academic achievement of which they can be proud. •72% believe Western has a supportive, personal atmosphere. •72% learned to think critically while 70% learned to express their thoughts clearly in oral communication. Look for more information from the Assessment Office in future editions of the Western Carolinian. Any questions or comments about this data can be directed to Renee Corbin, Assessment Office (227-7495), located in 560 H.F.Robinson Administration Building. Courtesy of the WCU Assesment Office Big Fish Ensemble Big Fish Ensemble Plays WCU Atlanta based Big Fish Ensemble will be performing free Thursday, September 22, beginning at 4:30 on the UC Lawn. Big Fish Ensemble has just finished as opening act for the Indigo Girls tour. Their unique sounds are a rock-n-roll melting pot—a seamless blend of influences as varied as folk and punk, big band and guitar rock. Each member of the band plays a variety of instruments, such as violin, horns and accordian, in addition to the rock staples of bass, guitar, and drums. But despite the diversity found in the Big Fish Ensemble's mixed bag approach, the one thing that holds it all together and sets this band apart is their songwriting. Big Fish Ensemble's live show is like a freight train; typically beginning with the slower songs, gradually picking up the pace until they've gathered such a head of steam that they become unstoppable. Band membes switch off instruments between songs, and, according to their whim, various instruments such as film, video, or popcorn machines may be used. They have also been known to pull occasional bizarre stunts, such as on-stage twister games and Big Fish Ensemble Karaoke, where audience members were invited to sing with the band.
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).
