The people who answer emergency calls for police assistance at Western Carolina University recently were honored and awarded certificates as part of National Public Safety Telecommunications Week. “They are some of the unsung heroes that are here 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year,” said Ernie Hudson, assistant chief of WCU police. WCU telecommunicators pictured, from left, are William Gleason; Branan Roughgarden, a student who works part time; and David Porter. Not pictured are Steven Pinner, Anita Buchanan and Chad Case.
