  • western ■• • arolinian Editorials & Opinions In response to the recent barrage of negative publicity about the suspected deviant behavior of student government and it's members, I offer this response as a student and as an out-going senator in SGA. Recently, the editor and several writers have written articles about a conspiracy in attempting to isolate eligible canidates from being able to run for President and Vice President. These allegations stem from a stipulation in an aritcle of the SGA constitution requiring all ammendments to the constitution be signed by the chancellor. Two resolutions on amendments were passed by the SGA. One requires that anyone who would like to run for the office of the President, have at least one semester of experience in the student government. The other resolution increased the grade point average requirement from a 2.0 to a 2.5 for the position of President or Vice President. Personally, I would not want anyone as president without prior experience. Having someone without experience would drasticly slow down the processes involved with student government. This will diminish the positive reputation and credibility that SGA holds. Secondly, if a student can not maintain a 2.5 GPA how can we expect them to successfully run the entire student government. Futhermore, anyone who falls bellow a 2.0 GPA is suspended from campus. Do we want to have a borderline student lead and be a representative of this campus? Joe Monroe and the student government are trying to bring about higher standards to our campus leaders. We aren't trying to isolate other borderline, '"experienced students from the elections. The editor and writers of the paper ^e trying to anul the recent elections. This will only hinder the effectiveness of the student government, thereby, hindering what SGA can do for us, the student body. Sam Grubbs Editors Note: My extensive research has yet to uncover an SGA reso- lution that suggest or implies that students running for SGApresident have at least one semester of SGA experience. Angry Reader Lashes Out Is everybody on the staff of the Carolinian rasicist or is it it just the editors? What the hell were you thinking when you decided you wanted to humilate this young man? Was it because he had different views than your little moral majority newsroom, or are you people just sooo right wing and rascist that you get off on shit like that? What if someone decided to take some of your tests that you hadn t done so well on and displayed them for the whole university to see? Just because this individual has a different perspective on the issue than your fascist ass....you feel the need to degrade him and make his opinion a joke? Are you people afraid of his point, do you think that it might catch on, is that why you tried to pull this jest? I see right through you...i bet you ARE afraid of his opinion, so you felt that the only way to diffuse it was to mock it. How many other people have you done this to? Or is this a first in the line of many? think about it...maybe one day you will be the one being ridiculed... maybe one day you will be the one with your back against the wall and a gun to your fucking head. In Solidarity YPRC After seeing the treatment you gave that rather incitfull African American student, im allmost afrid to send this to you.. That really was pretty low of you. And I for one don't consider a person a cry baby just because they disagree with the demented opinions of the editorial staff. How the hell did you people get on the news paper staff anyway? Brian Couch April 22,1998 Chancellor s Door Shuts Out Student Media by Seth R. Sams When a young high school student sees his dream shining before him with the high hopes of somehow by the grace of God winning a Pulitzer Prize for excellence in journalism, his first letdown is realizing that that will be more difficult than it sounds. The second, however, is that his dream of being a big hit reporter and dealing with the "top dogs" in society and reporting on what they do to that society, is suddenly realized to be a very difficult job, not always as fun as one would possibly think. News editor isn't quite so easy, either, and this fine establishment at which I work is only a weekly paper! The barriers which one must hurdle while trying to put together a good story worthy of the front page are quite tall at times, causing you to simply fall flat on your face in the process. The wooden door leading to Ihe Chancellor's office can also feel like the pavement of that rough track on which those hurdles stand. On April 16, 90 members of the student body rallied to the UC Lawn, at the Bell Tower, to show their support for Dr. Paul Gold, a highly spoken of and very interesting man who is a professor in the Communications Department. This led to a very peaceful, rather orderly march which led to the administration building and straight up the stairs to the fifth floor and in the chancellor's office. All 90 piled into his office, the lobby, and the Board Room. Seven people were allowed in to talk with the chancellor, along with a pair of men from WLOS-TV, which all seemed fine and good, despite the fact that WLOS was not allowed to stay for the whole time. When the media were allowed in, this reporter filed into line behind WLOS as Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Richard Collings held the door toHhe chancellor's office. As my turn to enter came, I explained who I was, the News Editor for the Carolinian, and was going to state that I would like to stay in the meeting along with WLOS until they left. However, I could not get all of that out, because Dr. Collings felt that it was OK for WLOS to get their footage, but a STUDENT representative of the media? The student media is a joke, of course! Is that all we are? I should think not! The hours I put into my section each week are just as important to the public as WLOS's footage. More people may see the footage than read the paper, but that does NOT make student media organizations (including WWCU, which covered the march but did not get to cover the meeting either) less important. The door to the Chancellor's office is probably not even known to all the students, but it should be; furthermore it should be open to all students. Perhaps it is, but it is obviously open to the student media only part of the time. western n o IT© Phone: 227-7267; Fax: 227-7043; e-mail: carolinian@wcu.edu Open 2 p.m. until 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
