  • w« estem Carolinian The Voice of the Catamounts NEWS IN BRIEF WCU Buzzes With Talk of Behavioral Issues WCU Buzzes With Talk of Behavioral Issues, School's Reputation James Carter and Tracy Grindstaff Since Chancellor Bardo made comments on deviant behavior in early January Western Carolina has been buzzing with talk of community behaviors and learned responsibility. On February 20, the university's Faculty Senate released the most recent document pertaining to Western's behavioral issues. Two resolutions were passed at the last Senate meeting. It was resolved that "the Faculty Senate, as the principal voice of the faculty, supports the Office of the Chancellor, the Office of Academic Affairs, and the Office of Student Development as they work to enhance the quality of student learning and life at the University, as well as the University's reputation." Secondly, it was resolved that the Senate "acknowledges the responsibility of faculty, administrative, and staff members to model appropriate behaviors and to expect the same of all [WCU] students." "The resolutions where statements of concurrence and confidence," says Faculty Senate Chair Terry Kinnear, "a way of saying, ' You're doing the right thing and moving in the right direction' " to university officials, staff, and students. Kinnear states that the Senate had acknowledged "the importance of modeling behaviors among faculty members" in an early discussion. "We found it important that faculty JAMES CARTER STAFF WRITER know they need to hold themselves accountable for their actions." In summary, Kinnear says the release had two major purposes: "to show support" and to "get the word out to the broader community." "The community should know what we think," he said. Further comments on student and university community behaviors have been issued by Chancellor Bardo. In a February 28 letter, the chancellor denounced the use and acceptance of the "insidiously harmful" drug Rohypnol at Western. In his comments, Bardo said, "Rohypnol... will not be tolerated at Western Carolina University. This message must be clearly stated." He warned of the effects of the drug and stated that "persons found to have [provided the drug or used it] will face the most severe university disciplinary action. Similarly, any organization that is found to have allowed the use of this drug on its premise or on University premises will face similar disciplinary action." Bardo explains that "disciplinary action" means "immediate action, including suspension or expulsion" and "removal of [any] affiliation" found illegally working with the drug. Staff and students are also concerned about such behavioral issues and how they affect WCU's reputation. In a recent poll, 80 percent of Western's students thought that WCU had the reputation of a party school. Cindy Grindstaff, a graduate student at WCU, stated that "the reputation will remain until the students show more effort and realize the need to take academics more seriously." Other students are aware of Western's reputation, but don't take the comments seriously. "The reputation does not reflect on the students," says sophomore Jennifer Mills. Jeff Edwards seconds Mills' comments by saying, "The majority of students don't pay the reputation any attention." Junior Julie Buckner suggests that Western's reputation "still remains, but only for the people who do not attend the school." Kinnear states that "you don't have to go out of your way to find opinions about Western in the community." . He said that he hopes public responses such as Bardo's stance on Rohypnol and the Faculty Senate resolutions will make the campus community aware of the problems WCU faces in community behavior and reputation. He also said that he hopes with increased awareness and action against deviant behavior, Western's "party school" reputation will begin to change.

TAYLOR EXECUTIVE EDITOR Alex Tolbert slides home in Wednesday's UNCAgame. PHOTO BY: TERRY K. ROBERTS The Western Carolina University Office of Student Development has completed its investigation of the fight that occurred at the Delta Sigma Phi house last Halloween. Dean William Haggard has announced that one fraternity will lose its charter while two others will receive disciplinary actions. According Haggard, the university conducted individual interviews with over 50 witnesses before charging Delta Sigma Phi, Lambda Chi Alpha and Pi Kappa Alpha fraternities with violations of the Code of Student Conduct and Risk Management Violations. Delta Sigma Phi's charter was immediately suspended pending the outcome of the case. Haggard said that the fraternity's activities were restricted to only those required by the University or Delta Sig's national headquarters. The results of the preceding included imminent suspension of chapter activities and loss of university recognition, effective July 1, 1997. Haggard said the chapter must "show cause" prior to July 1 as to why suspension should not take place. "Show cause" requirements include a review of officers by the Alumni Corporation Board, no social functions at which alcoholic beverages are present, ex tensive educational programming, development of a new party management plan and a community service project. Haggard said any policy violations during the "show cause" period will result in immediate suspension. The Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity was placed on probation through May 10 with restrictions and substantial educational and procedural requirements. Lambda Chi was also placed on level two probation with the International Fraternity Council. This means chapter operations will be suspended if all terms of probation are not The Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity was placed on probation through May 10. Pi Kappa Alpha will also have to complete educational requirements on how to step group violence at parties, Haggard said. Seven students were also charged with violations of the Code of Conduct. Those students included both fraternity members and non-members. One student was placed on probation through December 13, while the other six were placed on probation through May 10. Haggard said these probations were warnings and that any subsequent findings of violations of the code of conduct would result in the probability of more serious sanctions, including suspension from the University. Haggard also said that five of the probations included additional restrictions and educational requirements. A new social policy, ratified by the Interfraternity and Panhellenic Councils in late January, includes measures designed to prevent acts of violence at fraternity- and sorority- sponsored social events. The new policy took effect on February 21. Elements of the new policy include the presence of security guards, a limit on the allowed number of invitations, the presence of a guest list and other measures that university officials say are designed to enhance the control of Greek events.
