  • Hurricane Francis brings flood to Western: Students join together to help reduce damages by Sarah Reade | WGnewsmagazine Everyone around the campus has heard the adage that WCU stands for We Carry Umbrellas, but in the new Village Residence Hall of Western Carolina University, it now stands for We Contribute Unity. A heavy rainfall sweeping the Carolinas Sept. 7, 2004, hit Cullowhee and the new WCU Village hard. Rain water flowed downhill towards the Kappa Sigma and Phi Mu house and created what looked like a pool in the backyard of the two conjoined houses. For a while, students said it was all great fun floating in tubes and splashing around in the rain with residents from the two houses and neighbors who came to join. There were many jokes and many laughs in awe of what the heavy rainfall had delivered. Shortly, however, the reality of the situation became evident, as the connected Kappa Sigma and Phi Mu houses began to flood with rain water. Emily Conrad, president of Phi Mu, said, It was really funny until we realized the water had started coming into the house. The Resident Director of The Village, Tim Inman, was notified. Inman said that his first priority was to check on the safety of the residents, assess the situation and create a plan of action to get the water away from the house. He said he was very pleased with the residents pro-active choices to move ail pieces of furniture in the house to the upstairs. Phone calls were made to organizations in the Village as well as Greek members off campus. Members from every organization living in the Village came to help. Students, staff and faculty members were rushing to the nearby volleyball court to create sandbags by filling up trash bags with sand and outting them up against the house. Everyone was completely covered in sand and mud and were soaking wet from the almost four hours it took to stop the flood. More volunteers and residents also started vacuuming the water and dumping excess water in trash bins, which were later carried across the street to the nearby river. The numerous bags created a wail against the water, stopping it from entering the house, and water levels were lowered by all of the volunteered efforts. By the time firefighters arrived, they saw the measures taken by this community, and there was not much for them to do. Nearby neighbors willingness to help was amazing; the contributed efforts saved the new homes from damages that could have been more severe. That's what you call a strong community, said Tim Chapman, the assistant director of facilities management. Chapman was astounded by averyones overall willingness to help. | was ecstatic to see our new community come together. Greeks, freshman, and organizations were
