Old Story
The Cavalier Daily several
weeks ago printed a
colloquium by C.M. Wheeler
which seemed to blast the
First-Year Council. The truth
of the matter is that the school
newspaper was either pulling a
gigantic hoax or printed an
article that was at least three
years old.
It took over a week to get
the facts straight, but those are
startling facts. The FYC,
referred to throughout the
colloquium as the "First-Year
Committee" has been the
First-Year Council since
1969-1970. The article says
that "girls are still absent from
the dormitory;" in fact,
women have been in the dorms
since 1970-71. Several things
that were changed in 1969-70
were talked about by Mr.
Wheeler as needing changing.
Most importantly, Mr. Wheeler
has not even been enrolled in
the University since 1970-71.
Almost nothing in the
article is true for recent years;
whoever did pick this
colloquium didn't know a
thing about the FYC. Saddest
of all are the first-year students
who depended on the CD for
information. Perhaps we all
need to think twice about what
is printed in these pages.
