THE WESTERN, CAROLINI i Volume 78, Issue 4 1 O33 For Up To- Date Ne i CLINE WS.COM March 23, 2012 Alcohol in Cullowhee: The Before They Were Educators: - Western Carolina parties for a , WCU to implement good, the bad and the tipsy Dr. Leonardo Bobadilla good cause new credit card fees See Read more on Page 2 Read more on Page B-6 Read more on Page 6 RPE ECU NT ON UR A AE aL RR Re ar Ta a OS an oe gar arcana tenet Rr anes. uc (UE eR ek ACEP RA ' Tyler Auffhammer, Staff Writer : Starting on July 2, Western Carolina Uni- versity will implement new fees that will affect _ Many students. Announced earlier this month, the Universi- ty will no longer accept Visa debit/credit cards and will charge a 2.75 percent nonrefund- _ able convenience fee on MasterCard, Ameri- can Express and Discover card payments for | general payments on students accounts in ' Bill+Payment through MyCat. In years prior, Western Carolina has ab- sorbed the costs associated with tuition and fee ' payments made by credit cards. However, due Campus, located way 107 across from. : ae main campus, entirely tobacco free. The petition, currently being circulated by an association of students from the College of Health and Human Sciences, aims to have the. health campus serve as a role model for the afea by banning the use of harmful tobacco products. Amy Putnam, assistant professor for the school of nursing, is the faculty member aiding the students in heading the project. .t. This building is representative of health promotion in Western North Carolina, Put- nam said. We want the building and the peo- ple in it to,represent healthy living. The flagship building promises to offer interdisciplinary clinics, a number of state-of- the-art labs, as well as opportunities for stu- dents to work with. private health care provid- ers. The building will open this fall. Julie Lester, nursing student at WCU and one of the student leaders of the petition, said she feels it would be the right move for West ampus to be made smoke-free. ~. The health of students is impottant to me; thats what got me involved in the project, oe Said. : Students are advocating that WCUS West Campus, which h uses the new oak Health and Human acre Dr. there, Seestedt-Stanford will consult with the Chancellor, and a decision will be. made. Lester estimates the current number of sig- natures as close to 100. - _ According to the Americans For Non- Smokers Rights Foundation, an educational nonprofit organization, all North Carolina acute care hospitals are 100 percent smoke- free, so the goal of the petition is certainly not without precedent. Additionally, some univer- sities and community colleges in North Caro- lina have proceeded to ban arene across the board. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Wake Technical Community College in Raleigh are two of some 48 colleges and community colleges within North Carolina to completely ban smoking on the premises of their campuses. Each of these institutions has enacted their bans in reaction to the climbing mountain of scientific research and evidence into the health risks of tobacco smoke inhala- tion.
