WESTERN Carolinian THIS WEEK <Mv1ovie Guy Hears a Who! ► p.B7 •v-Applied Sciences Get a New Dean p. B2 August 18, 1999, Vol. 64, Issue 1 Cullowhee, USA Legislature Turns Aside $2.7 Billion in University Bonds by Jeffrey Sykes Staff Writer The North Carolina General Assembly adjourned in July without approving a $2.7 billion bond package slated for UNC System wide construction to meet the needs of a growing student population. This money, $232 million, was to go to the system's three western universities- WCU, ASU, and UNC-A, with $100 million destined to end up in Cullowhee. After passage in the N.C. Senate, the package was killed in the House by politicians wary of passing such a large expenditure without the approval of the voters. State debt currently is $2.5 billion, with an additional $2 billion passed in recent years by voter referendums. The failure of the bond issue was addressed by UNC System President Molly Broad in her visit to Cullowhee last Friday to address a UNC Board of Governors meeting. Broad, whose pursuit of the money for university and community college construction and renovation has drawn wide publicity, stated that the money was desperately needed in order for state universities to retain their 'competitive position'. "When you advance big ideas, you need to be prepared, and it may take a little while. You're going to need patience and you're going to need perseverance. I want you to know that we have both," Broad stated. "I believe it is now widely understood by the leaders of the state, both in business and in government, that our position will be jeopardized if we are not able to make capital investments in maintaining and modernizing these universities." This point was emphasized prior to the defeat of the bond package by Chancellor Bardo. In a press conference on July 9, Bardo stated that the Board of Governors had dictated WCU growth to approximately 9,400 students in the next decade. "We don't intend to change the nature of this university," said Bardo in reference to class size. This type of growth necessitates major construction in Cullowhee. Western's last academic building was built in 1978. Bardo took reporters on a tour of campus and highlighted the aging buildings, primarily Stillwell and McKee, and immediate housing needs on campus. Bardo stated that the average student had seven hours a day of unstructured time. "These people are going to need something to do," he said. "We have to have recreational facilities and support facilities." Bardo also referred to plans to close Centennial Drive, and referred to Western's pedestrian campus as "a recipe for serious injury or death." According to the Charlotte Observer the legislature will soon appoint a Joint Committee on Higher Education Facility to further study a revue of system needs as determined by Eva Klein. Klein, an independent consultant, spent more than a year assessing the needs of the university system, and her findings served as the basis of the bond package initiated by State Treasurer Harlan Boyles. The bond issue fell prey to conservative interest group pressure in the House. N.C. Citizens for a Sound Economy, a political action committee based in Wake County, attacked the package because of its lack a requirement of voter approval. Broad addressed the politics of the issue shortly after its defeat. "In the environment between now and November 2000, it is so politically charged it would be very difficult to mount a campaign that is not infected by the kind of political intimidation" used by the Wake county group. UNC Board of Governors Chairman Ben Ruffin stated Friday that the Board is used to one year delays when dealing with bond packages. When asked if the amount would change between now and next fall, Ruffin stated "There might be some kinks to work out, but as of now I can't say if the amount will increase." Bardo hoped that the legislature would rethink its position. "Our concern is how the failure of the bond package would impact our ability to educate the children of North Carolina," he said. "We hope that the General Assembly will be able to find a way to meet the needs of the university system—needs that were identified as a result of the comprehensive study asked for by the legislature." Western's immediate needs lists consists of $5 million for technology infrastructure upgrades, $4.5 million to begin construction of the Fine and Performing Arts Center, $5.2 million for stabilization of the leaking foundation of the McKee Building, and $3.6 million for acquisition of land contiguous to Western's campus. These needs were outlined by Bardo at the press conference of July 9. — The unfinished installation of windows in Scott is just one example of the many construction and maintenance projects that affect students as they return from the summer break. Next week, the Carolinian tells you what all the projects on campus are, when they'll be done, and why some of these projects weren't completed before students came back.
