more stringent procedures to an applicant

The proposed infirmary, to be built at

approval to the N.C General Assembly

"In my opinion," said Kepner, "the
new set of criteria should be keyed closely
to the kinds of concern expressed (by
Capps). For example, some students new
to the University arrive with a solid
foundation of living in resident halls. In
instances of this sort, certainly the policy
should be waived." '
Kepner said the decisions for waiving
.the present policy would be made on an
individual basis.
"I take this position because I feel that
living in a residence hall should be and
can be a meaningful part of each
student's total educational experience at
the University," Kepner related.
Capps, along with Cecil Miller, junior
class vice president; Susanne Welborn,
Residence College Federation
co-chairman and Steve Saunders, a
student member of the student-faculty
Committee of University Residence Life,
met with Kepner to receive a response to
the students' request for a more
liberalized policy.
Capps he showed - Kepner petitions
with more than 4,000 signatures calling
for the end of the forced housing policy.
The junior class president expressed
disappointment in the lack of action in
the meeting Monday, but said he would
meet again with Kepner Friday to work
out specific instances which would waive
the housing policy.
Listing his reasons for an end to the
policy, Capps said other juniors are not
required to live in University housing and
dormitory life is only a marginal way to
orient a student to UNC. He cited noise

said, it would serve to discourage poor or
flimsy spending of student fees and bring
those responsible for these acts to the
attention of the student body.
Waldo, a political science major,
emphasized he will be running against the
"machine made up of journalism majors
who now control the Tar Heel."
"I feel the paper belongs to all the
students and should be responsive to their
needs which it fails to do now," Waldo
said.
"I am offering new blood and giving a
breath of fresh air to the paper," he
added.

from interfering with any persons
enjoyment or right to occupy or rent an
apartment in the Came'ot complex.
The suit which was filed in December
in U.S. District Court in Greensboro, was
brought on by the abortive attempts of
Patten to rent an apartment from
Schultz.
Patten said he talked to Schultz over
the phone in September of last year and
was told that an apartment would be
available for occupancy on the first of
October.
In its preliminary report of Dec 4,
1970 the committee asserted students
right as consumers to have a part in
determining the direction and policy of
the Infirmary. Certain issues were
outlined about the organization,
accountability and scope of services
provided.
A second report, submitted to
Sitterson in January, requested
information developed by the Urtirersity
administration which jxiu.n.s the
approach to the General Assembly
requesting approval for building a new
student infirmary.
The committee also requested funds to
study other college health services, hire
consultants and prepare a planning
document for future health services for
presentation to the University
community and subsequent action.
The committee will meet with the
consultants to present pertinent data and
information gathered via pretesting
questionnaires.

in a dormitory as a problem and said with
the expense of dormitory rent up, it is
more economical to live in an apartment.
Capps called the policy ccriminatory
against single junior transfer students
since the policy is now waived for student
21 years old or married students.
Kepner, in his policy statement, said,
"I am of the opinion that the policy as
presently stated is not sufficiently
responsive to the needs to individual
students. A greater degree of flexability
needs to be built into the policy."
Refuting Capps' argument of
discrimination, Kepner said, "it is
impossible to ignore the fact th3t the
junior transfers are new to the University
community and that the returning juniors
are not."
He continued his rebuttal, "Much of
each student's education is gained
through interaction with his peers". Living
in University housing provides many
opportunities for meaningful interaction
of this sort."
Steve Saunders later commented, "I
am disappointed with the results of this
meeting. It is frustrating to see so much
student input for a major change and
then see the administration indicate that
it will take only a small step for
improvement."
Recommendations by Kepner will be
sent to Dean Cansler, who will then send
them with his recommendations to Dean
of Student Affairs CO. Cathey. To
become effective, a corporate decision
must be made by Cathey and Vice
Chancellor Joseph C. Eagles.

When Patten went to make a deposit
to hold the apartment, Schultz told him
none were available.
Patten then asked three friends of his
to inquire about apartments with Schultz.
When these friends called Schultz, they
were told-just as Patten had been
earlier that an apartment would be
available for occupancy on Oct. 1.
The injunction against Schultz can b
dissolved after one year if Patten does not
object, according to James Craven,
Patten's attorney.
