4H"he Daily Tar HeelTuesday, October 4, 1983 Jimmy Carter may be invited to speak at the University By MARK STINNEFORD Staff Writer Former President Jimmy Carter could be one of the featured speakers for a national conference to be held at UNC next spring. Student Government is working with the Carolina Sym posium Committee to invite Carter to the conference of the American Association of University Students to be held here in the last week of March, said UNC junior Paul Parker, vice president of the organization and SG execu tive assistant. Democratic Presidential candidates Walter Mondale, John Glenn and Alan Cranston will also be invited, along with other national leaders, Parker said. Jack Mohr, Symposium co-chairperson, said UNC had a good chance of attracting Carter to the conference. Carter, who spoke at UNC in 1975, recently has expressed interest in returning to UNC, Mohr said. "The AAUS national conference may be just the thing to help him make up his mind," Mohr said. , The theme of the conference probably will be "Pro gram for Tomorrow," dealing with issues ranging from the computerization of schools to student voter registra tion, Parker said. Representatives from more than 60 universities are ex pected to attend the speeches, workshops and discussions associated with the event. UNC will be the first public institution to serve as host in the six years the conference has been held, Parker said. Parker will be chairman of the conference. "This is a chance for UNC to really show itself as a na tional leader," Parker said. The AAUS executive board picked UNC last week over two other universities seeking to hold the conference. Sup port from the UNC administration was crucial in the selection, Parker said. Chancellor Christopher C. Ford ham III pledged that the University will pay $2,000 toward the costs of the event. "It's further evidence of the visibility and stature of this university that this distinguished student group wants to hold its national conference here," Fordham said. "All academic roads seem to be leading to Chapel Hill." UNC groups sponsoring the event include the Executive Branch of Student Government, the Residence Hall Association, the Carolina Symposium Committee and the Student Consumer. Action Union.

VOTER REGISTRATION ENDS OCT. 10 MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS TUESDAY, NOV. 8 Students shape up to contemporary Christian fceat By AMY BRAN EN Staff Writer Students at the Baptist Student Union are dancing to a dif ferent beat. The BSU is sponsoring a class which offers aerobic dancing to Contemporary Christian music. About 25 students are taking the Christian aerobics class under the direction of senior radio logic science major Laura Weeks. The class, which meets on Mondays at the Battle House and Wednesday at Morrison Residence Hall, is open to students of all religious affiliations, free of charge. Weeks started the class two years ago after hearing several of her friends complain that they were getting out of shape. "It started with two of my prayer partners from the United Christian Fellowship," she said. "We used to work out in my room, then when we got a whole group together we moved out here." Weeks said the contemporary Christian music was good for exercisers' attitude. "Even though you're not really listening to the words, they do affect your outlook," she said. "(The music) keeps your mind in the right perspective. The themes of the songs are love and fellowship instead of sex." Many of the students said they liked the idea of working out, to Christian rather than popular music. "It's a celebration of the healthy body God has given us and a way to worship God by taking care of our bodies," said Amy Edwards, a senior journalism major. "Exercise is a lot more fun when you can turn it into a spiritual experience." Senior broadcast journalism major Jackie Willard said, "I like the idea of dancing to Christian Contemporary music. It adds a new twist, and Laura is so lively, she has a lot of en thusiasm and it carries over to the group. "It's always a really warm group and the warmth makes the exercise more fun to do." At the end of each session the group joins hands during the last song for a prayer. "I like the prayer time at the end, it kind of brings everything together," said Terri Atkins, a senior radio j television and mo tion pictures major. "Other classes put the emphasis on just the workout, but here you get to praise the Lord." The class usually averages about 10 to 15 students. It is co sponsored by the Baptist Student Union and the Intervarsity Christian Fellowship.

Clayton, Washington lobbyist for the American Association of Christian Schools, said Helms' amendment would stop the "greatest assault on the free exercise of religion this country has ever seen." The impending battle over the amendment follows a Supreme Court decision in May upholding the IRS's authority to deny tax exempt status to church-affiliated schools with .discriminatory policies. The schools involved 'were Bob Jones University in South Carolina and Goldsboro Christian School. School officials maintained that their 'discriminatory policies stemmed from religious beliefs. 0 Kta&ioncal Coliegkate Conference Kansas City Missouri featuring Dv.
