Reld challenged the institution he led to univer sity status ko go on to great ness in future years Sunday at Cullowhee. He bade his public farewell as president of Western Caro lina University in a commence ment address to 515 graduates, the largest number in WCU history. Six Cherokee County students and five from Clay County were among the graduates. Those from Cherokee were: Judith Ann Boring of Andrews, and James A. Parker, Jr. of Murphy, Bachelor of Arts; Wil liam R. Harper of Rt. 1, Marble, Bachelor of Science; James R. Jones of Andrews and Burke E. Moore of Murphy, Bachelor of Science In Educa tion and Paul Teres of Murphy, Master of Arts in Education. The Clay graduates were; William M. Gray of Hayesville, Bachelor of Science; Hazel W. Faulkner of Hayesville, Peggy H. Kendall of Rt. 3, Hayes ville and Nicky L. Mosteller of Rt. 1, Hayesville, Bache lor of Science in Education and Mary Haynes Dalton of Hayesville, Master of Arts in Education. Dr. Reid will retire June 30 after 19 years as president of the institution, which was a small, 600-student teachers college when he came to it in 1949. It now has 4,000 students. University status poses Western Carolina one of its greatest challenges, Dr. Reld said. Older universities may cling to foreign models, he said, but the comming, truly Ameri can university "is being called upon to educate previously un imagined numbers of students, to respond to the expanding ? claims of national service, to merge its activities with In dustry as never before, to a dapt and to rechannel new in tellectual currents." The major problem facing the university today "is adjustment to change," Dr. Reid said. "In this respect, the university is required to react to more for ces than any other organization in society . . . (because) it is the convergence point of the major revolutionary forces of our time." "It is a paradox that higher education institutions, which should be preparing our young men and women to enter a world of social and intellectual revol ution, are themselves so resist ant to change. Like it or not the world will not stand still while higher education makes up its mind ... we appear to have the alternative of ch anging and leading, or of being forced to change from out side . . For Western Carolina, Dr. Reid said, "the future place in the sun and the strength of the place will depend upon how well the institution recognizes certain factors and makes pre paration for them". Continued growth must be expected, he said, with an en rollment of about 7,500 bv 1975. Such growth, he cautioned, will bring with it increased imper sonality, and steps should be taken to overcome the dangers inherent when distance increas es and communication decrea ses between students and fa culty. Professors must be found who will involve them selves with student affairs. The practice of many larger un iversities of assigning much of the undergraduate teaching to graduate assistants should be avoided, he said. Western Carolina, he ad vised, should not only pro tect the quality of teaching, but should concern itself with what is taught: the curriculum must meet contemporary needs of students. The students them selves must be treated as ma ture persons with a strong pas sion for social justice. Western Carolina must con tinue and expand its extension programs of continuing educa tion, Dr. Reid said. "A re gional university which fails to provide broad service to its region is a regional un iversity in name only and its existence is unjustified." The overall purpose of West ern Carolina, he said, "is to assist in raising the education al, the cultural, the health and the economic levels of its peop le." Hopefully a good univ ersity now, WCU "some day may become a great one," he said. If it becomes so "it will be the result of consci calculated Influence 'ruill 1U present constituent ?? ? Or. Raid added: '1H appeal lor itfauslastic suppc from all quarters tor the de velopment of a treat unlvei* sity." ? The university, be declared Is vital In any society, "bdt In a democracy It is pricey leu . . . if the world Is to prosper and be more Lumu* as it does so, it will need this university and all other uni versities as never before, sin? ce we now live In a time when ignorance is unthinkable urn unacceptable not only for It# grossness but for its danger." Bachelor's degrees were a* warded during the commence^ ment to 395 students. Master's degrees and post- master 6th year study awards were pre-' seated to 35 students. * Falrbank's Tavern in Bos-Vl ton became a repot to ry forO overseas mail in 1639.
