Together, they Food Stamps Available By RANDY HOLOMAN “Are you aware that hundreds of thousands of you who are college students and young Americans living in communes are eligible for food stamps? Or that millions among us who are not on welfare also now qualify for the stamps? Do you even know how to determine whether or not you are eligible or how to apply?” The previous excerpt was taken from a column by Sylvia Porter published just recently in a local newspaper. It is representative of other reports which are leading some college students to believe that they are automatically eligible for food stamps now under a sweeping new federal program.

English Majors Meeting Oct. 22 11:00 a.m. 210 HKnes Young Voters Involved The United States Senatorial campaign for Bill Stevens has announced the formation of a state Steering Committee on Youth Affairs. The Youth Program, called North Carolina Young Voters for Bill Stevens, has been actively organizing since the end of May. The following have agreed to serve as members of the Young Voters for Stevens Steering Committee: Don McCauley, former University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill football star. Bill Chambers, former UNC- CH basketball player: Deborah Swann, student government president, North Carolina Central University, Durham; Jim McAbee, student govern ment president, UNC- Greensboro Division to get the true facts of the matter. The following in formation tells about the food stamp program and how it might apply to you or 1 as a student at Atlantic Christian College. The Agriculture Dept, has now officially conceded the obvious: food prices will continue to climb in the months ahead. This along with the destructive spiral in prices generally will bring the inevitable side effects of a new surge in the numbers of Americans eligible for the federal food stamp program. It is true that in July the eligibility rules were significantly liberalized. At one time the parents of the household had to be eligible if they claimed the child as a dependent and the child had made application for food stamps. A ruling by the Supreme Court declared this un constitutional. Eligibility requirements which a student here at ACC as well as any other educational institution must go through and complete before eligibility is established are: (1) He must meet household criteria and (2) He must meet income stan dards. To meet household criteria a person or group of persons, whether related of unrelated, must share COOKING FACILITIES, usually buy food together, eat together, and pool resources and share expenses. Members of and commune meeting these requirements ought to qualify. In other words, a household is usually present according to the law when COOKING FACILITIES are present. Students living on campus are automatically disqualified unless school policy changes. Thus, an off-campus apartment or residence dweller seems to be the most likely candidate here at ACC. However, one must also meet income requirements. This can become rather complicated and is based on several factors such as net monthly income, man datory expenses (i.e. tuition, book fee), and income from other resources such as (cash on hand, bank accounts, stocks, bonds, and real or personal property). More simply, a college student evaluated on an income scale by figurement of net income after the above three categories are investigated. A statement from the parents or legal guardian is also required as to the amount of financial assistance they contribute to the student. Did you know that you, as a student here, may well qualify if (1) You are the only member of your household and it has been established that you have a household (i.e. by presence of cooking utensils), (2) You have a net monthly income not ex ceeding $1M and (3) You have another sesrouce limit not over $1,500. Eligibility requirements increase as figures rise in each category Now where and how to apply. Application can be made at the local Department of Social Services-Food Stamp Division on Douglas Street if you think you are eligible. The head of the household or another adult member of the household who has the authority to act for him must apply himself. A social services worker will take ap plications. Persons should take the following papers with them so that their eligiblity may be determined. (1) Social Security card (2) Rent receipt or record of mortgage payment See FOOD STAMP Page 4 accomplish much more than simply the pairing of two out standing talents.
