The Western Carolinian NEWS August 24, 2012 AS SGA hopes to appeal to more students By Laura Odom Staff Writer The involvement of the people is essential to the welfare of any govern- ment. Western Carolina Universitys Student Government Association is striving to attain a more diverse compila- tion of representatives and activities to better demonstrate the diver- sity of the students that attend WCU. To accomplish this feat, the SGA has de- cided on four different types of outreach and involvement. First, they - are aiming to evoke a five-year plan, dur- ing which the hope is to grow the Senate to 50 students which will reflect .05 percent of the student body, according : to Student Body Presi- . dent Alecia Page. The directive of this initiative is to reach out to more students that attend WCU. Another goal is to reach out to the international students to _ create a more welcom- ing environment. The SGA is also working to get more information about their-actions out to the student population. This initiative includes broadcasting the Senate meetings on TV62 in an effort to keep the student body in the know about the actions and plans of the Student Government. Association. Finally, the SGA hopes to host a Faculty/Staff banquet that will honor the people who give the students education and make it all possible. The banquet will be a way for the university to say Thank you to the people who make the school run smoothly. Within the system, ~ there is a recent effort to balance the power that is possessed by the various arms of the . SGA, according to notes from a previous SGA meeting. The members are working to give its ALCOHOL CONTINUED FROM PAGE Al in Cullowhee and hopes that franchises like Olive Garden, Buffalo Wild: Wings, Chilis and Out-. back will be persuaded to take up residence in Cullowhee, giving stu- dents more options than the current campus food selection. he _ + Dunn does not foresee that these establish- | ' ments willdo anything _ but help Cullowhee.

This will closely mimic a system of checks and balances that will better _ serve the student popu- lation effectively. They have also redrafted the financial policy, creating more funds for clubs and various organizations. In addition to the amendments, the SGA has continued to employ initiatives such as the Cuts Hurt program, a program begun by Page when she was Student -. - Body Vice President dur- ing the 2011-2012 school year. Cuts Hurt is a pro- gram that raises aware- ness of North Carolinas budget cuts to public education, including the effects on the students of the UNC school systems. After the initial action of filming videos that described the effects, it was suggested that due to the busy schedules of . the representatives in the state and local sen- judicial branch more ates that students take authority to hear cases a headshot photo and will profit from these While it may be too establishments as well, said Dunn.

The building also houses a - primary care clinic with pediatric care. An adap- tive living space is also included so that stroke victims can get an idea of how to live indepen- dently. Various labs have also been set up in the new building. For example, the communication sci- ences and disorders pro- gram will hold free hear- ing checks to the public along with two specially constructed testing rooms. The emergency management program has emergency simula- tion labs. The environ- mental health program hosts an insectary for the study of indigenous mosquitos.
