The advisory position to Student
Government has been expanded to play
a more active role in the Executive and
Legislative branches of Student Govern
ment at Student Body President Patri
cia Wallace's request.
Anne Bowden, associate dean of
students, has replaced Donald Boulton,
vice chancellor and dean of student
affairs, as adviser.
Bowden, who also advises the Judi
cial Branch of Student government, said
she planned to expand the adviser
position so that she will interact directly
with Wallace and to act in a "strictly
advisory position" with other members
of Student Government.
Wallace said the new adviser position
was necessary to alleviate a conflict of
interest. Previously, she would meet
with Boulton to get his approval on
policies she wanted to implement, but
that made it difficult to ask for his
advice on devising the policies, she said.
Wallace said she had been consider
ing the new adviser position since the
spring.
i think it's about time (to expand
the adviser position)," Wallace said.
"The message it should give to students
is that Student Affairs is concerned
about student development. (Bowden)
is never going to be representing me
or anyone else in Student Government.
I see her mainly as a source of infor
mation on campus issues and how to
use resources basically who to see
about what."
In a memo to Bowden, Wallace
states: "I think we can both agree that
keeping the advisory role purely advi
sory is essential. Once the advisor
becomes representative of students or,
on the other hand, a mouthpiece of the

administration, the effectiveness of the
position rapidly deteriorates."
Wallace also states in the memo, "I
look forward to being able to confide
in you, but 1 am also wary of any
administration intrusion into Student
Government." She also asks for "advice
on how to handle administrative duties
more efficiently and how to involve
more students in Student Government."
"Each branch of Student Govern
: ment can get what they want out of
that resource (Bowden), or they can
push it aside if they want to," Wallace
said.
Campus Governing Council Speaker
Wyatt Closs said he also liked the idea
of having an adviser to turn to should
the need arise, but he had a few
reservations.
"I think it's a good idea, particularly
from the resources point of view," Closs
said. " I don't look at it as (having)
an adviser. She's someone we can turn
to for suggestions on a resolution or
something we're doing that's stupid
she could point it out and help things
run smoother.
"I hope students won't see it as an
administrative takeover. I may have
seen it that way, but not since it is Anne
Bowden," he said.
Closs also said Bowden's advisory
position was of "limited" use to the
legislative branch.
"She's not going to be here every day,
and things in the Campus Governing
Council tend to happen quickly," he
said.
"It will be interesting to see what
happens. I'd hate to see her evolve into
a high school-type guidance counselor.
That can be very manipulative. Stu
. dents could become too dependent on
her, though. That would not be good."
of about $1,000, SCGC Speaker Wyatt
Closs said.
The SCGC also approved some
summer Honor Court appointments.
For the first party, the SCGC pro
vided slices of watermelon for students.
Closs said 50 watermelons were ordered
but only about half were actually used.
"The only bad thing is I don't think
anybody knew who was responsible (for
throwing the party)," Closs said. The
point of having a party was to make
students aware that V the SCGC was
using summer fees for the benefit of
summer students, he said, but that
didn't quite get across since not many
students knew the party was sponsored

Closs said the second party was more
successful. The SCGC ordered 18
gallons of ice cream for students but
had to get another nine because there
were so many students.
About 200 students showed up for
the watermelon party, but 300 turned
out for the ice cream, Closs said. He
attributed the greater turnout to an
announcement that appeared in The
Tar Heel the day of the party. Ice cream
also had more appeal and students had
to stand in line, which attracted the
attention of other students, he said.
Closs said the parties helped SCGC
members gain a better understanding
of what other groups go through when
they plan something since communica
tion was difficult between the regular
SCGC meetings.
Another $1,700 the SCGC did not
spend will revert to the general surplus.

The U niversity faculty received a five
percent salary increase this summer,
adding to the state's effort to attract
top faculty.
Effective July T , the North Carolina
General Assembly increased by TO
percent the base of UNC's personnel
budget.
Raymond Dawson, senior vice pres
ident of general administration, said
Wednesday that a salary freeze three
years ago and the high inflation rate
did not allow UNC to keep up with
other universities in the areas of
biotechnology, computer sciences and
microelectronics. ;
About seven faculty members left
during the salary freeze, Provost
Samuel R. Williamson said. "Some of
them left because of frustration, others
because of bigger offers," he said.
"The freeze was so total that people
watching other people in other univer
sities getting increases became hard to
swallow. It began to 16ok like the state
didn't care."
In 1983 the UNC system and the
University of Texas, Austin, bid to
become part of a research project by
a major microelectronics firm. If the
UNC system won the bid, the firm
would relocate in Research Triangle
Park..';; y .
"Texas won , because we were not
competitive ut those disciplines that
interest that kind of industry," Dawson
said. ;v ,
"The University has become a con
cern of the state because they are now
recognizing the importance of the
University and higher education to
economic development."
The University later requested that
its base for personnel be increased by
10 percent. The 10 percent increase in
1984-85 led to gains in the University's

"We are pleased with the recognition
given by the General Assembly,"
Dawson said. "They are now concerned
with providing the University with
competitive salaries in biotechnology,
engineering (N.C. State) and the other
sciences." .
The 10 percent increase in the
personnel budget allowed every per
manent, continuing academic employee
a five percent raise. "The remainder of
the money is used for merit increases,
resolving salary inequities that have
been found and discretionary
increases," Dawson said.
An April 1985 study by the American
Association of University Professors
showed that salaries at public institu
tions were lower than those at private,
independent institutions. The same
study showed that Duke University
ranked first in professorial salaries with
an average of $49,000 per year. UNC
ranked second at $46,000.
In addition to the AAUP study, the
University uses its own survey which
contains eight more universities than the
AAUP study, including the State
University of New York, University of
Georgia and the University of
California.
Dawson said this survey showed
UNC professors were paid four percent
below the national average. Chief
finance officials are paid almost eight
percent less than finance personnel at
other state universities.
But the University got financial
backing greater than the national
average, Dawson said.
"The state Legislature made a positive
response to our requests. We are certain
now that our overall competitive
standing of faculty and other academic
areas are now receiving increases in
salary that are greater than the rate of
inflation."
