Make your own class

Staff Writer
"Mediterranean Studies," "Psychology of
Visual Art" and "Children's Literature" are
just a few fields students in the
Interdisciplinary Studies program are
studying, Levis Lipsitz, assistant dean for
experimental and special studies, said
Wednesday.
The 95 students taking part in the program
this year can use it to academically pursue
any interest by creating a new field of study,
Lipsitz said.
To enter the program students must

semesters before they graduate.
The first step in setting up an
interdisciplinary major is to design a 60
semester-hour course of study with the help
of a full-time faculty member. Once Lipsitz
has approved the course of study, the student
is on his w ay. Alterations in the original plan
can be made easily, Lipsitz said.
Each student in the program must plan to
take at least 18 hours of courses in his area of
concentration. These courses must be taken
in at least two departments.
Also, at least 30 hours of elective courses
must be chosen from departments other than
those of the student's area of concentration.
No more than 20 hours can be taken in one
department.
General College requirements are the
same for students in the Interdisciplinary
Studies program as for all other students.
Each student's program is directed by his
faculty advisers (usually the person who
helped him design the course of study) and
Lipsitz. A degree with honors or highest
honors may be received by working through
a regular departmental honors program or
by writing an approved interdiscipinary
thesis, Lipsitz said.
The Interdisciplinary Studies program has
grown to 95 students from 70 last year. "I
think the increase can be accounted for
because the program has become better
known," Lipsitz said.
Students also have more choices for
interdisciplinary areas of study, Lipsitz said.
"The Interdisciplinary Studies program is a
natural way-station on the way to creating a
new curriculum."

Thurston: minority rights
by Jane Mosher
Staff Writer
The lack of government planning is
threatening to negate rights won by
minorities in the 1960's, particularly in the
area of housing. National Housing Director
William Thurston said in a speech before the
Black Student Movement Tuesday night.
Speaking for a national organization for
social change. People United to Save
Humanity (PUSH). Thurston said the
housing problems facing minorities now are
the result of the national and world
economic situation.
He said the national economy is being

RALEIGH Joan Little, the young black
woman acquitted of murdering a white jailer
she claimed sexually attacked her, lost an
appeal Wednesday of the burglary
conviction on which she was being held at
the time of the slaying.
A three-judge panel of the North Carolina
Court of Appeals found no error in the
breaking and entering trial that resulted in
her being sentenced to 7-to-l0 years in
prison. She escaped from the Beaufort
County Jail following the fatal stabbing of
jailer Clarence Alligood. but later turned
herself in.
M iss Little, a 2 1 -year former construction
worker is on a national speaking tour and
could not be reached for comment on the
appeals court decision. She will remain free
on bond as long as the case is under appeal.
Jerry Paul, Miss Little's chief attorney,
had earlier said he would appeal an adverse
ruling. He told reporters Wednesday in
Cincinnati, where he was appearing before a
university group, that he was not surprised
by the court's action.
"We expected the Court of Appeals to rule
the way it did because of the way it has ruled
in the past," Paul said. "In the past 1 5 years.
upset by the continuing power struggle
between large corporations and labor
groups. "Various monopolistic corporations
are moving to control the country," he said.
Also world and national economic crises
are partially a result of constant friction
between the masses in the underdeveloped
Third World nations and the rich nations
who are trying to control them, Thurston
said.
PUSH has outlined definite steps that the
government could take to end minority
housing problems, he said. First, changes
should be made in the regulations for the
Federal Housing Administration's (FHA)
payback program, he said.
Under this program, up to $5,000 is given
for housing repairs to homeowners who
purchased their houses with FHA loans
during a specified period.
The problem with the regulations,
Thurston explained, is that many
homeowners who did not buy their homes
during the specified period do not have
funding. PUSH advocates extending the
specified time to qualify more minority
homeowners for the funds.
In addition to changing payback
regulations, President Ford should release
funds that would give homeowners an extra
$250 per month to be used for house
payments. Thurston said. But Ford has
refused to release these funds until the
national foreclosure rate rises, he said.
Blacks must "revitalize social
consciousness to v protect economic and
political gains," Thurston said, describing
the goals of PUSH.
Thurston called for direct public action to

Joan Little denied appea
of 74 burglary conviction
the Court of Appeals has never ruled in favor
of civil rights or blacks in one of these cases.
Miss Little was convicted of breaking into
a house and two trailers near her native
Washington, N.C.
Her 19-year-old brother, Jerome, was also
accused of breaking and entering and
larceny at the trial in June, 1974. But he
changed his plea from innocent of that
charge to guilty of receiv ing stolen goods and
testified against her.
Miss Little testified that she had not been
in the vicinity of the residences, but after her
conviction she took the stand again in an
apparent move to get a lighter sentence and
confessed to all of the break-ins.
Her attorneys argued before the Court of
Appeals in September, following her
acquittal of the murder charge, that
prejudicial testimony and evidence was
permitted during the trial.
But Chief Appeals Court Judge Walter
Brock, with Judges Earl W. Vaughn and
Edward B. Clark concurring, said. "We find
no prejudicial error in the trial."

WASHINGTON President Ford said

achieve improvements in minority housing
plans. "You cannot have a struggle without
having a demonstration," he said.
A movement is effective only if people
commit themselves and identify their role in
the struggle, he said, insisting that the most
important factor in a movement is unity. To
have a successful struggle, "you must first
bring the people together," Thurston said.
Thurston has been investigating the
political, economic and social conditions in
the Research Triangle area to determine a
need exists for a social change organization
similar to PUSH. PUSH plans to develop in
coalitions in 20 U.S. cities to protest social
conditions that oppress minorities.
Pre-med service
The College of Arts and Sciences and the
General College have initiated a service to
advise pre-medical and pre-dental students
concerning curriculum, admissions
requirements and application procedures for
medical and dental schools.
Chemistry professor Dr. Paul Kropp has
been appointed coordinator of the service,
which is located in 3 1 1 South Building. Open
daily, the service has been operating
approximately two weeks.
The objective of the advisory service is"to
assist students in choosing medicine or
dentistry as a goal, assist them in appropriate
curriculum and assist them in the application
process,". Kropp sa:-J. ......
The advisory service was formed because
some University deans saw a need for special
assistance for pre-medical and pre-dental
students, Kropp said.
Dean of Student Affairs Donald Boulton
said the service was needed because, "for the
past three years, 50 per cent of the freshman
classes hav e said at that point that their goal
was medical or dental school."
The increased number of students
applying to medical and dental schools has
created a need for students to be better
acquainted with their prospective fields of
study, Boulton said.
General College and Arts and Sciences
advisers don't have the specialized
knowledge needed to help students in pre
medical and pre-dental programs, Kropp
said, adding that the assistance is to
supplement the academic advisors.
Others participating in the advisory
service are June Alcott, a vocational
counselor from the Guidance and Testing

Wednesday he would wait and see what the
New York state legislature does to help New
York City and then decide whether he can
support anv bill to keep the city solvent.
Ford threatened to v eto the bill pending in
the House to provide S3 billion in federal
loan guarantees to avert the largest
municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history. But
for the first time he said he might lind federal
help for the city "appropriate."
The House Democratic leadership
immediately - and for the third consecutive
day -canceled debate on the bill. Leaders
acknowledged the cause was hopeless
without Ford's support. They postponed
further consideration of the measure until
after Congress returns Dec. i from its
Thanksgiving recess.

Jan Hodges
Hobgood to speak
Hamilton H. Hobgood, presiding judge at
the Joan Little trial, will speak on minority
rights at 8 p.m. today in the Dialectic and
Philanthropic Chamber in New West.
Hobgood, 64, has served 20 years on the
North Carolina Superior Court.
He is best-known for his handling of the
trial of Little, a 21-vear-old black woman
who was indicted for the stabbing death of
white Beaufort County jailer Clarence
Alligood. Little was acquitted of all charges
Aug. 15.
Some of the controversy surrounding
Hobgood concerns his decision to reduce the
charge against Little from first-degree
murder to second-degree murder because he
said he believed the state prosecution had
failed to prove premeditated murder. In
addition, he would not admit some certain
evidence for the prosecution.
Hobgood also cited defense attorney Jerry
Paul for contempt after Paul said during jury
selection that Hobgood was biased against
the defendant.
