  • a, pn Oe et ty baler <.. eas Reary nur Pe wt iil ete met meen ila cnn @ a ee THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN ~ THURSDAY Febuary 25, 2016 Vol. 83, No. 2 * FREE The Natural Science building stands on old legs. Plans for a new science building are included in the Connect NC bond package. Jordan Freeman Stat f Writer \ - For the rst time in 15 years, something monumental is happen- ing in North Carolina. No, NSync is not get- - ting back together to do a world tour, as great as that would be. What is happening is so much bigger than that as it affects almost everyone in the state, especially some of the students on campus. This year, during the Presidential primaries, residents of North Caro- lina have the chance to get a two billion dollar bond signed into law, which will help with statewide investments in education, parks and recreation, safety, and water and sewer infra- structures. The Connect NC bond package was introduced as the state, as a whole, has had a 25 percent population growth from 2000-2016, which comes out at.about two million new people. This bond will affect students here at Western Carolina University, especially if you are pursuing any kind of science or nurs- ing degree. How will it affect According to Chan- cellor David Belcher, the University of North Carolina College Sys- tem, which includes all seventeen public col- leges in North Caro- lina, Western Carolina being one of them, will receive $980 million dol- lars of the bond package and community colleges will receive $300 mil- lion. Of that $980 million, Western Carolina will - receive the largest amount of any of the other colleges in the UNC College System, a whopping $110 million. How will the bond money be used at West- ern Carolina? Many students have walked through the halls and classrooms of the Natural Science Building. The class- rooms and labs are small and outdated be- cause it was built in the 1970s, when the science and nursing programs werent nearly as popu- lated as they are now. We have four hun- dred science majors and one to two hundred _. pre-nursing majors cur- _ Western Carolina stu- dents? rently at Western [Caro- linal, a said Belcher. He continued to say that Western Carolina -is fine on student capac- ity, as of right now, for these kinds of majors. However, if the univer- sity continues to grow at the rate it is (hopeful- ly so), then the students will not be able to grow in the science and nurs- ing programs, and that is something he does not want to happen. Belcher also said that when Governor Pat Mc- Cory came to tour the campus, he said that the Natural Science Buld- ing needed help. In short, the money will be used to tear down the current Natu- ral Science building, which is beyond saving. The only major con- cern on the chancellors mind, as well as most of the faculty, is if the bond will pass or not. In order for it to pass, it needs the support of North Carolina voters. This is where stud- nets of Western Caro- lina, and all of the other UNC schools, can play a roll in passing they the bond. Most are 18 or older, which means > old enough to Voting is a right, so its very important to exercise that right. Belcher provided ad- ditional incentives to vote for the Connect NC bond (besides school pride): There will be no increase in taxes, it will not increase North Carolinas debt and it is bipartisan, meaning that it is supported by all parties in the North Carolina House and Senate. For more informa- tion about the Connect NC bond, visit connect. nce.gov. To learn more about how the bond will directly affect Western Carolina and how you can get involved in the schools efforts, visit advocate.wcu.edu. To register to vote for the bond, as well as in the rest of the primary, got to www.ncvoter.org. Remember that because of voting laws, you need to register with your dorm address if voting in Jackson County. If you register with your permanent address, you'll have to vote with an absentee ballot. ~ Photo by Emily Dorsey/STAFF Photo by Emily Dorsey/STAFF Students given opportunity to vote on spring concert Jessica Potter Staff Writer Western Carolina Uni- versity takes great pride in their musical endeav- ors. From the Baddest Band of the Land, referring to the march- ing band that has over five hundred members, to our symphonic and pep rally bands, music is not taken lightly on - this campus. Recently, the Depart- ment of Campus Activi- ties sent an email poll to sudents that included nominations for West- ern Carolinas upcom- ing spring concert. The leading nominations are as follows: Second- hand Serenade, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, David Cook and Para- chute. Students were able to vote on these nominations for the up- coming spring concert, as they do every year. Why are musical events beneficial for our campus? Western Carolinas marching band hosts many events throughout the year, one of them being the Tournament of Champions, held an- nually at the Ramsey football stadium. Typi- cally, this event is an invitational competition with more than ten of the leading schools in this region according to their band performance. Western Carolinas marching band assists in ensuring that the event runs smoothly and seamlessly every year. In 2015, Dobyns- Bennett H-igh School won The Tournament of Champions. Additionally, the universitys pep band is a volunteer-based band that plays at basketball games for our womens and mens teams. Furthermore, without the universitys band members, cool events like The Tournament of Champions would not be hosted. Another important event that arrives an- nually in the spring se- mester here at Western Carolina is the spring concert. This event is usually performed in a public setting, which means that all individu- als in our community, not just students and faculty and staff of Western Carolina, can attend the concert. There are no admis- sion costs to attend the concert and it is usually held at the Catafount area of Western Caro- linas campus. This is considered the central area of campus as it is easily accesible to all and therefore, it attracts many individuals. This event is a way that students, as well as the community, are acknowledged and ap- preciated. Brian Boyer, a University Residential Living case manager, aids in the production of this event. He is also seen on the Residential Facebook pages adver- tising and giving stu- dents the opportunity to vote on University issues and events. Concerts are an important part of the American culture. They characterize major events and promote na- tional responses by the public. Recently, during the Super Bowl, Beyon- c, Coldplay and Bruno Mars performed in the half time show. Later, this event was ridiculed for projecting political views onto the public audiences watching it. In our culture, we use music to reflect the con- stantly and consistently adapting cultural and social dynamics. So, ina great sense, by Western Carolina hosting art- ists for spring concerts, it allows students to participate in that musi- cal culture. By bring- ing artists to campus, it means that students are participating in the community, and that is the most important thing to remember.
