Western Carolinian March 21,1996 Features Woman of die Night1 Tries Again For comedian Wendy Liebman, a not-so-funny thing happened on the way to a March 5 performance at Western Carolina University. Liebman became ill the weekend prior to her appearance at WCU, forcing the postponement of her performance. She is now scheduled to appear Tuesday, March 26, at 9 p.m. in Brown Cafeteria as part of Women's History Month activities at WCU. The show is sponsored by Last Minute Productions, the student-run entertainment and activities programming organization. Admission is $1 for WCU students, $3 for all others, with free pizza from Pizza Hut of Cullowhee. Liebman, profiled in a recent "Women of the Night" comedy special on HBO, has received winning rave reviews for her trademark style of one-liners followed by subliminal afterthoughts. The Los Angeles Times likened her to the illegitimate daughter of Mary Tyler Moore and Steven Wright. She has performed on "The Late Show" with David Letterman and "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno. She is currently working on a pilot for a television sitcom. For more information, call LMP at (704) 227-7206. Information contributed by OPI Pint*** WCU by Bryan Sharpe Contributing Writer Vallapa Saranukool, Tomoyuki Takahashi and Xiaohong Zhu are international students from Asia. Each has found American life to be extremely different from what they have been used to. "The personality here is more energetic," said Takahashi, a 25-year-old undergraduate student from Japan, who is majoring in sport management. "Everyone seems like they have to be on the go at all times, which I have found myself doing at times." Saranukool is a 24-year-old graduate student from Thailand; She is pursuing a master's degree in business administration. "I thought America would be more interesting, but I did not realize that Western Carolina University was located in such a small town," said Saranukool. "The school is good as far as studies, so I am pleased with what WCU has given me as far as academics go." Zhu is a 33-year-old graduate student from China, who is studying chemistry. "I came from a big city to a small quiet city," said Zhu. "China has a population of over one billion people. So the big difference for me is that America is not as crowded as China." All three students are involved in the International Club at WCU. They will also take part in the upcoming International Festival on Thursday, April 11. The Asian students have picked up hobbies during their stay in the US. Zhu and Saranukool like to swim during their free time. Both agreed that there are not that many people who will swim for recreation in their countries. Takahashi meanwhile has picked up a less vigorous hobby-cooking. When asked how they found out about WCU, Zhu and Takahashi said they heard about Western through a friend, Saranukool discovered WCU through a book; it makes you wonder if Cullowhee really is as small as it seems if people on the other side of the world know about WCU. World Music To Be Presented at WCU The music of South India, Zimbabwe and Asia will be presented at Western Carolina University during March and April as part of "Music of the World's Cultures," the 1995-96 artists-in-residency program.
