B2 august 24, 2012 ah f i \ FRESHMAN SURVIVAL GUIDE Keep to the code: Student Community Ethics keeps WCU disciplined By Carvan Craft Staff Writer New students may hear horror stories about Student Commu- _nity Ethics, but those stories are unfounded and exaggerated, ac- cording to the man in charge. How bad are punishments? What is the worst offense that can be committed? Will making a mistake get you kicked out of the University? Walter Turner, direc- tor of Student Commu- nity Ethics, discussed _ with this journalist the disciplinary system used when there is a behavioral problem at Western Carolina Uni- versity. The hearing has two phases: the finding phase and the sanction- ing phase, said Turner. The finding phase is where the hearing board determines ifa violation has occurred. If the board determines there is no violation, then the case is closed. If the hearing board determines that a viola- tion did occur, then the hearing would continue to. a sanctioning phase: During the sanctioning phase, the board con- siders intent, impact, character witnesses and | By Ryan Alexander Co-Editor-in-Chief 1. Winter is fairly mild because we areina valley - This statement sits on a thrown of lies. Winters are brutal here _ in Cullowhee. It rains all of the time from being in a temperate rain forest. And to go along with the rain, we get day after day of 35 degree weather, not cold enough to snow, but just cold enough to make you really angry. 2. The mountains around us shelters us from most of the bad weather - Again, false. You may have heard this - during a campus tour > along with the above statement. In the fall, it rains all the time. Iam not talking once a week we get a shower, I mean that it will rain for so many days you will for- get what the sun looks. like. There is a reason WCU stands for We carry umbrellas and girls look for fashionable rain boots. It is because you need them. 3. Campus is deserted previous disciplinary history. , Turner continued that the sanctioning phase considers intent, mean- ing, did the student intend to cause harm to the victim or com- munity. When a student is victimized then the community is also im- pacted, even though the problem does not always have a victim. Our code breaks into minor or serious offens- es, and when asked to identify what the worst offense is, that is a dif- ficult question, Turner said. We look at cases . to either be a minor vio- lation or a serious viola- on weekends - It might seem like that because there isnt a ton of stuff going on compared to big cities, but the people are still around. The cafete- - riais still busy, there are people at the athletic events, Cullowhee is not a ghost town Friday through Sunday. 4. The alumni tower - Every time an under- grad walks through the tower, it adds a year to your time at the univer- sity. As fun as college is, I would be looking at a college career in the de- The Western Carolinian tion. Serious violations can result in separation from the University. By separation from the University, we mean the person can be suspend- ed or expelled. Suspend- ed means, the student ~ is separated from WCU for a certain amount of time. Expelled means the student is separated from WCU indefinitely, from the entire univer- sity system. Acts of violence, weap- ons, assaults, sexual assaults, blowing things up and acts of alcohol or drug abuse will result in suspension or expulsion. - All cases are de- termined on a case by The top nine myths about Western Carolina cades if this were true. 5. Nobody stays all four years here- Au , Contraire my friend. There are plenty of stu- dents who spend their _ entire college careers here at WCU,4with some students never wanting to leave. You may meet some people who end up failing out, or transfer- ring away, but for the most part, students who come here also graduate from here. WCU is right at the national aver- age for retention rate of freshman. case basis based on the face of each case. The process is consistent to uphold students rights while simultaneously holding students ac- countable in the event a - violation occurred. The process is educational in nature and operates in an effort to be fun- damentally fair, said Turner. When dealing with the court system and Western Carolina Universitys Adminis- tration system, it is like playing double jeop- ardy. ; Turner explained, The court deals with laws and the school deals safe. Be responsible. Be with rules, and theres a significant differ- _ ence between the court process.and the student conduct process... They are mutually exclusive. In the end, both the court system and stu- dent conduct process | : holds the student ac- countable for his or her behavioral actions. So, its not double jeopardy... m an edu- cator. I want people to learn, said Turner. Be legal and make good : choices. At WCU, we 4 care about all people... ; We're all students here, and we should respect each other. U a a niversl ty, 6.

As nice as it would be to swim on the roof, there are no plans to install a swim- ming pool on top of any residence halls. 7.
