  • June 18, 2010 Our Take UNC Enrollment Cap Would Be Bad Change A state House plan to limit enrollment growth by law at the states public universities may be a rational short-term response to an unprecedented revenue shortfall, but it sends a dismal message to this states students: Even if you qualify academically there may not be a college classroom seat for you. Thats a bad development in a state that has long prided itself on building an exceptional system of higher education - and that has enjoyed the direct economic, social and cultural benefits of the 17-campus UNC system. Heres the background: Legislators are in Raleigh to amend the biennial state budget of about $19 billion. Even as the states population continues to grow, its available revenue is failing to keep up with needs, and state House members: are eyeing new cuts of $139 million for the UNC system - cuts that university leaders say will lead to 1,700 job cuts and adversely affect the ability of the system to meet students academic needs. en ee. House leaders are also looking at restricting enrollment _ growth to 1 percent systemwide, which may mean no toom for thousands of students. Instead of nearly 4,900 more stu- dents this fall, it would mean only 2,200 students if the cap __ Were imposed right away. But House members dont contem- plate imposing the cap until the 2011-12 academic year. While many of those students might be able to find space in community colleges, a growth cap may shift the burden onto a community college system already stretched to meet increased enrollment due to the recent recession. For decades university leaders have resisted enrollment caps and, in fact, have worked hard to boost the college-going rate in North Carolina. To now place an enrollment cap would be a significant, and discouraging, change in state education and _ economic development policy. Its important to understand that House leaders arent proposing this cap lightly. Enrollment growth is costly, and until recently university officials badly missed their forecast growth costs. In 2007, growth was forecast to cost about $40 million, but UNC officials had to ask for another $34.6 mil- lion when more students showed up than projected. For the S 2010211 year, UNC asked for $53.4 million for enroll growth of 4,485 studnts, then sought $56 million m another 440 students, the N&O reported. ~ ay UNC campuses enroll about 222,000 students, and last year registered a 3.1 percent increase. Nationally, colleges and universities are going through the same dehate over lim- iting enrollment growth. It would be an especially bitter blow if the cap on enroll- ment means North Carolina students who otherwise would qualify cannot enroll, presenting university officials with yet another bad choice. House officials ought to reconsider this cap and keep intact the university systems ability to accept and educate as many qualified students as it can accommo- Our Staff Justin Caudell | Editor-in-Chief 103 Old Student Union Cullowhee, North Carolina 28723 -wc@email.wcu.edu 828-227-2694 1 aX 4 ore for nce AR Katherine Duff Smith | Advisor 109A Old Student Union Cullowhee, North Carolina 28723 smithk@wcu.edu 828-227-2195 Shelby Harrell | News Editor Joshua Farmer | Features Editor Jada Bratton | Sports Editor Shelby Harrell | Arts and Entertainment Editor | Jay Strong | Photo Editor Nathan Hunzaker | Designer Maegan Zigarevich | Designer Jay Strong | Distribution The Western Carolinian P.0.

But great sex? Thats traditionally been the terri- tory of the hunky fireman, the prowling cop, or the buff construction worker. But societys getting tired of these over-sized hunks getting all the at- tention. Give us a skinny, four-eyed comic collector over the clich blonde ken doll any day of the week. Following is the list of our favorite nerds and the reasons why they make great lays, if not wonder- ful long-term companions: #1, The Doctor (or Pre- Med Major) this ones not hard to figure out, they knows exactly where the magic orgasm button is be- cause theyre a doctor. Its surprising how many cou- - ples just dont know their way around each others spots. Most wont stop for directions, but a doctor has literally studied the ins and outs of your anatomy. Its almost guaranteed that they wont get lost. #2. The Cyber Geek (Video Gamers) Aroused by your quirkiest traits, the Cyber Geek tends to adore things about you that you may find slightly embar- AROLINIAN rassing. Theres nothing more satisfying than dis- covering that those Ms, Pac Man skills you picked up in elementdtschool now have the power to make | your prospective nerd go crazy for you. The Cyber: Geek is the perfect outlet for your dorkiest sexual, impulses. #3. The Comic Book Fa- natic - Kinky doesnt even begin to describe some of the stuff that has be- come standard issue both within the pages of popu- lar graphic novels and off the pages at comic con- ventions. The sexually ad- venturous would bene- fit from getting comfort- able with Marvel, DC and Dark Horse Comics sto- rylines, especially with a. nerdy friend leading the way. #4. The Public School Teacher (Uh oh, this might mean college professors as well!) Every day, these people deal with young- sters. Lots of them. This would be a person who is never, ever going to be sloppy about contracep- tives. They knows first- hand how truly exhausting having sids can be, and if they are certain about one thing, its that they doesnt want any baby drama. | dont recommend going for any teacher you come across, especially not here at WCU, but if you ever do meet one, My advice: sit it back and relax. Youre in Quotable They saw him go under and they never saw him surface again. - Kelli Richmond, public information officer for the Jackson County Rescue Squad. Page 4 OREM tei tT cor $2... i y Mees orl ae fxs good hands with a teacher. #5. The Retail Analyst (Metro sexual) While this Wall Street hunks work is somewhat dry, the key word here is retail, as in Prada, Gucci and Cha- nel, This is a man who al- ways sinells tasty, because he gets the best colognes and grooming products di- rect from fashion-vendor goodie bags. If your olfac- tory glands play big into your arousal factor, might T recommend a whiff of the retail analyst? #6. The Writer (WCU Students who live in Coulter) Having sex with a writer is just asking for your most scandalous, pri- vate moments to get un- _ contributions. We will not publish anonymous letters; | ; ] making personal attacks or personally hurtful statements; endorsements of or letters from political candidates; or copies of letters to other publications. Because we want to provide access to a variety of viewpoints, each letter writer will be limited to one letter every four weeks. All letters should be signed, and writers should enclose their addresses and daytime phone numbers. Addresses and phone numbers wil! not be published but will be used to verify letters. We reserve the right not to print any letter. LETTERS POLICY We welcome letters from our readers. We urge brevity, both for the sake of effectiveness and the demands of space; letters should be no longer than 500 words. All letters are subject to the same editing for clarity applied to our staff etters praising or criticizing professors by name; letters ee i ASR DORA a Reds od 4 4 ie ; i suing Cx on the Valley covered in their next work _ of fiction. On the other hand, ifthe daredevil in you likes the idea of thousands of future readers hanging on your every word, then the writer is your guy. #7. The Artist (WCU Stu- dents who live in Belk) Art- ists are a sure a source of happy, sex. With a consis- tent means of expressing themselves, sex for them may just be another form of expression. A true artist can appreciate the scen- ery one sees, and is sure to appreciate their partner as well with a warm embrac- ing glow. Tell me-which over- looked profession gets you hot?
