Transcript

Western Carolinian March 28,1996 News Humanities Council Member Addresses WCU by Kevin McPherson Staff Reporter Dr. Harlan J. Gradin, assistant director for programs at the North Carolina Humanities Council, spoke in Founder's Auditorium on Monday. Gradin began the forum by outlining the philosophy of the organization. He explained that the programs which are supported by the council explore explanation and debate all the facets of the humanities. According to Gradin, the 23-member council makes grants to individuals and non-profit organizations who develop programs to promote cultural diversity and heritage awareness in North Carolina. When the NC Humanities Council began in the early 1970s, the focus was directed only toward addressing public policy issues. Gradin stated that 86 percent of the funds for the council's projects come from the National Endowment for the Humanities.The council also requires its participants to match the funds it uses. Coming Soon to a Cafeteria JVear you. The Reverend Gary Birdsong was sighted at the "pit", at UNC-Chapel Hill on March 14. Birdsong makes stops at various colleges and universities in the South East. He is famous for condemning students to "hell". If you didn't get enough hellfire-brim- stone-condemnation growing up in the Bible Belt, check him out. Regarding this point, Gradin said, We're in the business of partnering. This is not a handout." During the speech, Gradin continued outlining the functions of the humanities programs. He stated that the programs are a quest for evidence; they seek out the viewpoints of others, search for connection and patterns in our culture and ask "what if?" and they answer the question, "Why is this important?" What distinguishes a Humanities Council program, Gradin said, is that it is free and open to the public, has humanities content and involves a humanities scholar. "We are not a top-down organization, " Gradin stated, We hope to provide dialogue not monologue. The gist of what we want is to have citizens understand the preciousness of self- discovery, " Gradin said. Although the council sponsors new programs every year, it also has several ongoing projects. These include teacher's institutes which focus on cultural diversity; a speaker's bureau, which addresses current events; Motheread, an adult literacy project; "Let's Talk About It," a statewide forum on cultural diversity; and the Western North Carolina Tomorrow Program, which exposes high school students to studies in Appalachaian culture. Gradin ended his presentation by addressing the things that distinguish a humanities-based program. He stated that it involves a perspective which places events in a larger context, critical sensibility, the asking and answering of questions in a more complex manner, classification of possibilities and choices all of which culminates in as interpretive framework. UC Renevations On Schuedule by David C. Westbrook Staff Reporter The University Center is being renovated to "basically rearrange many of the features in the UC to better serve students," says the UC Director Tim Jacobs. There will be new brick to replace the buildings old skin, while an open stairwe! and a public elevator will be added the building. Anew food court featuring a Chick-Filet, and a Fresh n Natural sandwich shop, will be on the ground floor of the new UC. This food court will offer expanded seating and faster service than that of PG Katz or Top of the Stairs. Food Service Director Aubrey Wooten said, "In general, students feel comfortable with the concept of a Chick- Filet because they are familiar with their products and they have grown up with this concept of comfort food," she said. UC conference rooms will be expanded while lounges will be placed on all three floors. A reconfigured lobby will be on the third floor and an expanded version of the old Cherokee room will be raised to the third floor as well. On the first floor, the game room will be moved to the other side and outdoor equipment rentals will be given more space. The second floor of the new UC will contain the information desk, LMP, the UC Administration office, and the Student Government Association. There will also be more TV rooms to view movies.
