BUDGET APPROVED A Student Government fall budget of $13,432.50 was approv ed at the Senate meeting held Sept. 10 in Lipinsky Student Center. Finance Commissioner Rickie Bell noted that the figure is approx imately $ 1,000 more . than the amount granted by the Campus Commission. She said the difference would probably be made up by pro fits made from S.G.-sponsored social events. She said the S.G. dance held Fri day, Sept. 5, would have shown a profit of $ 174 if someone had put put a cement block through a cafeteria window. The cost of replacing the window will come out of S.G. funds, she said. Ms. Bell also said she plans to ask for$2,000 more from the Campus Commission, which allocates funds to campus organizations, when it meets Sept. 19. She said the com mission has $5,000 in funds left over from previous allocations. Seven senators attended the meeting. The Senate will meet again at 2:15 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 24. cont. from p. / The Chancellor believes that UNC-A will be given high priority in the distribution of funds. Only North Carolina Central University in Winston-Salem has a worse asbestos problem. According to Chancellor Highsmith, in two weeks' an asbestos task force will visit UNC-A to access the cost of repair and determine the first steps of correc tive action. The Chancellor said UNC-A should receive enough money for the science building and possibly a small area in the gym which contains asbestos. The date for beginning the repairs is still unknown. The University has future plans to renovate Lipinsky Student Center for use by the Continuing Education Department. This renovation would include removal of the asbestos ceil ings. At this time there appears to be no immediate or definite solutions to the asbestos problem at UNC-A. Perhaps the students, parents of students, faculty, and staff could participate in the effort to find solu tions by writing their state legislators.
