A sharp snap of wood and rusty tin broke the silence, as the destruction of the symbolic anti-apartheid shanties began. Although the end came for the shanties erected as a silent protest for the Trustee and Endowment Boards to divest UNC funding in South Africa, the cry for justice intensifies. One student said tears came to her eyes as she watched the shanty where she had spent the night before destroyed. She describes her experience there as harsh. “It changed my life she said, you get a true sense of the South Africans’ hard, cold lives.” Yet, UNC students can only imagine the realities faced by South Africans everyday. While the administrators sat comfortably in their plush offices, paid black workers, ungloved were sent to do their dirty work. . Hell no, we won’t go! rang from the students as undercover cops came to arrest five students, Herman Bennett, Robert Pharr, Marguerite Arnold, Graham Entwistle and Helen Moore. On the steps of South Building another crowd heckled and cheered and blared songs in opposition of the anti-apartheid demonstrators. But until justice is met, the struggle against apartheid will continue. One Year at 1INC Black Ink Laurie Denise Willis Editor Marjorie Roach Assistant Editor Kenneth A.

It was the “thrill of victory” because they completed successful high school careers and stood ready to conquer the world. Well, college. UNC to be exact. This is a quick look back. After arrival, students were immediately introduced to university lingo like Pre-0 counselor, 0X3., M.A. and the “U.L.” After freshmen deciphered those abbreviated titles, they had to learn the location of “the Yard” and the purpose of “the Wall.” Even their enunciation was affected especially after making the dreadful mistake of asking an upperclassman, “Where can I find ‘Day’ Hall?” After going out in the community, they discovered that Kerr Drugs was not synonymous with “Carr” Drugs. Deciding on a major has been difficult, too. One could be an Afam, Poli-Sci, Psyc, or Econ major and on it goes. Drop/Add.. . It was time for transition. For many freshmen, like Amanda Thomp son of Charlotte, a psychology major, the transition from high school to college was”... frightening at first. I thought, how will I get through it?” she said. continued on page 3
