Sams Editor-in-Chief A 22-year-old graduate student at WCU died in an automobile accident on Thursday, August 31 at 8:50am. Erica Coffey graduated this past May with a bachelor's degree in education, and was employed as a graduate assistant in the College of Education and Allied Professions. According to investigators, Coffey was pulling out of Speedwell Road onto Highway 107 when she collided with a truck that was traveling southbound on 107. Coffey was pronounced dead at Harris Regional Hospital. When NC Highway Patrol troopers arrived, the truck involved was not on the scene. The incident has not been identified as Memorial flowers mark the spot at the intersection of Speedwell Road and Highway 107 where a WCU graduate student was killed on Thursday. a hit and run. The driver of the truck, who was later identified, did not receive life threatening injuries. The NC Highway Patrol is still investigating the cause of the accident, but have yet to release any information regarding the red light at the intersection or on the mechanical condition of the Saturn that Coffey was driving. Coffey was from Hickory, NC, and had a younger sister who is. currently enrolled at WCU. v • _l^ I \ 6 j PhmH ■■ *m mm R ,' :■''■ .:'■-■ ■■ ■■ v.--':- ■:■?•& ,.: i m St, W »:■: Parking Problems Create Chaos on Campus by Samantha Helms Asst. News Editor During this time of the year, there are more cars on campus than any other time. This presents a problem for commuters, along with those who are not familiar with where they are permitted to park. "There are always three to four weeks early in the fall semester when parking is at its worst," said Gene McAbee, Director of University Police. "People don't know where to go even though we give out printed material and even used the electronic bulletin board this year to direct commuters to available parking." Recent complaints from students include a lack of parking spaces. One commuter, Rich Brewer, explains, "It all depends on what time your classes start. There is no problem in the mornings, but the afternoons are complete chaos." Another complaint is the increased price of parking stickers, from $25 last year to $30. Nonetheless, WCU's parking fees are among the one or two lowest in the UNC system. "Many of the UNC schools pay $100 photo by Josh Daub The grass on campus is considered fair play for students who can ifind parking spaces. or more for their decals," said McAbee. One explanation for rising decal prices is that by state law, a university's parking system must be self-supporting. This means that the cost of construction, main tenance, repair, replacement of lots and the administration of the parking system is supported by student fees. The cost .for asphalt and parking lot maintenance is continuously rising as well. "The Robertson/watertower lot project this year added nearly 70 spaces to campus, which are available to commuters, but the price of the lot was approximately $180,000," said McAbee. A few years ago, $100,000 was spent- to purchase land across from Harrill Hall. Planning is underway to expand parking in the area of the upper Harrill lot. Since school resumed, there have been spaces available for commuters eVery day. According to McAbee, there are approximately 100 vacant spaces across the street from Harrill; 50 to 60 available commuter spaces at the Outreach Center. There is also space available in the creek lot at the Ramsey Center and the baseball field, which has 450 spaces with usually only five cars in it. "I suggest that students do not wait in lines of cars in front of Reid or behind Belk or Killian to see if a space opens close to the building," said McAbee. "Go to Harrill or one of the other outlying lots during the first few weeks of school and plan on taking a 5-10 minute walk to class."
