  • news December 2,1998 iiiian Male Student Pleads Guilty to Burglary, Assault by Seth R. Sams News Editor A male student pled guilty on November 24 after being charged with first degree burglary and assualt on a female. The charges were filed after the victim reported that she had forgotten to lock her door and the male entered and sat on the bed next to her. The victim reported that when she awoke, the male was sitting next to her in bed fondling her breasts. The student was sentenced to two years probation, $250 fine and court costs. He must also seek a psychiatric evaluation to determine if the student may repeat such behavior. Depending upon the outcome, the male student will also undergo treatment. The student was an acquantance of the victim and is not allowed to return to WCU for the duration of his probation. As of press time of the Carolinian the name of the male student charged was unattainable. Announcement Copier Key Lost On November 17,1998, at approximately 10:00 a.m., a representative for Ikon was servicing the copiers and emptying the coin boxes in the library. He inadvertently left the keys in the machine. When he returned to retrieve the keys a short time later, he discovered that someone had taken them. If you observe anyone trying to get into the copiers in your building and they do not look familiar to you, please contact the University Police Department as soon as possible. If the individual starts to leave, please get a good physical description, a direction of travel, and any vehicle that you may see the subject getting into. WCU Acquires Climbing Spire for Outdoor Skills Program -OPI Western Carolina University's department of health and human performance has acquired an inflatable climbing spire for teaching rock climbing in its outdoor recreation skills program. Purchase of the spire was made possible by a $ 10,000 gift from Robert M. Failing of Santa Barbara, Calif., a WCU alumnus and retired pathologist; and a $5,000 gift from Mike Fischesser of Alpine Towers, Inc., of Burke County. A long-time supporter of WCU, Failing developed a life-long interest in outdoor activities and mountain climbing when he was a student at WCU in the 1950s. His passion for climbing has taken him to the top of six of the world's seven highest peaks. By June 2000, Failing hopes to climb Mount McKinley, the only peak that has eluded him. If successful, he will be, at 71, the oldest man to successfully reach the summit of North America's highest peak. Fischesser, a former climbing instructor for Outward Bound, designed and built the 30-foot-high polyurethane climbing spire. He reduced the price of the spire by $5,000 so that WCU could purchase it. Maurice Phipps, assistant professor of health and human resources at WCU, said the spire came fully equipped with harnesses, ropes and helmets. The climbing spire, with numerous hand and footholds, is suspended from the rafters in Reid Gymnasium and can be adjusted to provide different degrees of climbing difficulty. Four people can climb the spire at one time. Phipps said the spire initially will be used for instructional purposes in outdoor skills classes. As instructors are trained, he said, the spire may be available for recreational use. HOURLY SALES CLERK NEEDED bookstore $5.75 pep hour.

Dr. Gordon Mercer, director of the graduate school's public affairs program, attended the dinner and the Ramsey Center presentation. "I think it's been great to have Bob Dole here. One thing I've always admired about him is that he always had a bipartisan approach," Mercer said. Mercer added that he hopes WCU will bring more prominent figures to speak to the students in the future. Dr. Betty Farmer, a professor in the Communication and Theatre Arts Department, had the honor of introducing Dole to the students. "Dole was an excellent choice as a first speaker," Farmer said. "It's an honor and a privilege because he is a great American." Student Government Association President O.J. Morris accompanied Dole at the dinner and was with the group of three students who picked up the former senator at the airport. Seniors Kim Dills and Sam Chontos were also in attendance. "I honestly think the visit from Dole lifted the students' spirit," Morris said. "I was surprised with the turnout at the Ramsey Center and the students forum." Morris added that Dole's a laid back, funny guy. "He loosened me up because I was a little nervous [about meeting him]," he said.
