Dorms getting

prize

Getting the facts from people
who know is the aim of the Moore
and Sanford Halls Awareness
Program (MASH-AP), which started
last week.
Experts in fields like drugs, sex,
poverty, love and marriage, religion,
and ecology will hold informal
question-and-answer session, which
are open to all students.
Hopes are that the sessions will
heighten awareness of and concern
about issues of interest to college
students, and will help to dispel
any misinformation students may
have.
"Students can ask questions
without intimidation or fear of
appearing stupid," says Marian
Beane, resident administrator of
Sanford and co-coordinator of the
program.
The present topic of the sessions
is drugs. Future sessions will deal
with the medical aspects of drugs
and with University policy toward
drug users.
About 100 students attended the
first session. According to Miss
Beane, the meeting was productive
and interesting.
Another goal of the program is
to get the students out to where
things are happening on these
issues. Tentative plans call for visits
to Open House, the state prison,
and Broughton State Hospital.
Because the program is
experimental, plans for future
sessions are still indefinite. Miss
Beane and Dick Day, resident
administrator in Moore, plan to
continue and improve the program
next year.
Although the program uses
student feedback and ideas, the
resident administrators run it. They
started it. Miss Beane said, because
they have the time and resources to
organize it.
"We are not in competition with
student programs," Miss Beane said.
"But there is a need for a program
like this, and if we had waited, it
probably wouldn't have been done."

IEEE begins
UNCC group
by sharon deck
Dissemination of technical
information is the main function of
the newly-chartered UNCC chapter
of the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
Engineering students here cacame
up with the idea of starting a
UNCC chapter a month a^.
Charlotte IEEE chairman Nick
Melton presented the charter to the
chapter at a luncheon two weeks
ago.
On February 16, the group will
hear an engineer from General
Electric, who will speak on
preparing resumes and applying for
jobs in engineering.
All IEEE meetings are open to
any interested student.
IEEE is the most prestigious
professional engineering organization.
Students here hoped that being in a
student chapter would facilitate
membership in the larger group
when they enter the profession.
"An engineer who is not a
member of IEEE is like a doctor
who is not a member of the
AM A." student George Thomas
commented.
The UNCC group now has 19'
official members. About 15
applications for membership are
being processed through the New
York office of IEEE. Dr. Robert
Coleman is counselor for the group.
