"Wc need to have some financial reserves, because we dont want to make decisions based just on TV (profits)," Swofford said. Television coverage of UNC athletic events has been quite profitable for the department and now accounts for 21 percent of its total revenue, or a little less than $2 million a year. TV revenues have just exploded," Swofford said. "Sometimes I think maybe we're too influenced by it, but it gives many more people opportunity to see the teams." Although there are 13 varsity sports for both men and women, expenditures for men's sports outnumber the amount spent on women's sports by roughly eight to one. Football, which was allotted $1,539,000 this year, not including money for 95 scholarships, receives more money than all the women's sports combined. Men's bas ketball will receive $86 1 ,000. But football ticket sales also generate about $2.3 million for the department. "Football is a really expensive sport to run," said athletic department manager Beth Miller. "We have to do more for those sports (football and basketball) since they're revenue producing." Discounting the football and basket ball figures, the total budget for men's and women's sports is almost equal, at slightly over $500,000 each. WUNC wants more student volunteers By NANCY ATKINSON Staff Writer After a full day of classes, the only thing many students can do is get a soda and a bag of popcorn and veg-out to a favorite rerun, soap opera or cartoon. Busy being absorbed into the fantasy world of television, the lecture weary student little realizes a real world of exciting experiences exists at the other end of the broadcast frequency. WUNC, channel 4, the same station that brings shows like "Masterpiece Theatre," the "MacNeill-Lehrer Report" and "Monty Python's Flying Circus" to North Carolina, wants to expand its volunteer network. Volunteer services Director Camille Patterson said the UNC Center of Public Television depends highly on viewer support through money or volunteer work. She said, "A lot of people consider TV glamorous, and it is when you're in front of the camera, but there's an awful lot of work going into making that minute happen." Based right on the UNC campus in an annex to the general administration building at 910 Raleigh Road, WUNC is a campus organization that is interested in more than tapping the student population as a large volunteer source. "Volunteering is a two-way street. Volunteers give time and energy, but we want them to come away with skills they can put on a resume," Patterson said. She says the state of North Carolina accepts volunteer experience as work experience on their applications, and the fact that a student has done something aside from classwork is very valuable when job hunting. The station wants to open doors for skill development to everyone on campus. "A lot of times the only students that know about public television are RTVMP majors," Patterson said. "But as far as contacting like the art department that could help our graphics department, the only way to get in touch with them is by going into the classroom." Students can develop writing and research skills by assisting departments like programming and public affairs. The programs themselves must be processed regularly. A satellite feed brings in programs from all over the country to the station that must be time-coded. Besides time-coding, volunteers can also help develop local programs. Patterson said, "The local programs need research that is readable." The public affairs department needs writers and researchers to answer mail. "Viewers are very responsive to our programming, and they write in asking questions like, What is the music to Masterpiece Theater?" Patterson said. Answering questions, dealing with complaints tactfully and sending transcripts are time-consuming tasks that volunteers can help with as weil as learn from doing. , Volunteering is especially needed by WUNC in March when the station does its major fundraising event, "Festival." "Festival" is vital to the running of the station because, Patterson said, "We dont run a spot for Pepsi Cola at $5,000 a minute." Individual students can learn public relations skills by selling advertisements to local merchants around the time of this event. Patterson said different fraternities, sororities or other campus groups have gotten TV exposure by manning the pledge phones during "Festival." "A lot of people have gone on to bigger and better things," Patterson said, and she is ready to give others a start at WUNC. "TV is a very high energy kind of place. It's not cold and sterile, and there's always something going on." Students can volunteer on a regular or temporary basis by calling Camille Patterson at 962-8191, extension 545 or 547. Students interested in more specific jobs and skill developing will be kept on file in a "SkillsBand," and they will be called in for related temporary work when needed.
