4 The Daily Tar Heel Monday, November 25,-1 935 Dy STEVE AUSTIN : Synditated Columnist ) Dear Steven: Here's another of those : 'flame still burning' letters. He decided ;. to call me after almost five years all that time and not one word. ln not married and am about as single as they -come. He is, however, and that, of course, is the major problem. I'd be back in his arms in a minute if he wasn't. I'm just not the kind of woman who has the urge to break up a marriage, but if I say no to his lunch invitation I know hell just pester me until I give in. I'm sure he won't be bringing his Lwife and kids along, so if I go for it (which 1 probably will do), what s the best way to tell him I'm not interested t jn anything more than a bite to eat and from page 1 bc Student Movement; Todd Hart, an r executive assistant for Student Govern- ment's executive branch; Bryan Hassel, a member of the Cammis Awareness Network; Eric Walker, a BSM member, ..Walt Boyle, president of the Carolina f 'I Union; Mary Evans, student attorney general; David Brady, chairman of .the " Campus Governing Council Finance 'Committee; Liz Frankenberg of the ' ' now-defunct Sorority Women Against Discrimination; and Kim Reynolds and jRoger Orstad, co-presidents of the "Campus Y. Dorothy Bernholz, director of Stu Vdent Legal Services will open the rally, '.speaking about the University's policy on protesting. a: Admissions from page 1 a spot in tne iresnmen class irom a North Carolina resident. "It's not that someone is getting 21" denied because we have an admission "3 exception," Evans said. "Admission 1 exceptions are considered separately from the regular admissions. They're ri,part of the large process, but one admission exception does not hold back . a regular admission." L'c The majority of admission exceptions are minority students because of the need to enhance minority presence at UNC, Evans said. '' The athletic department is limited to 38 exceptions in an academic year, t! Evans said. There is no limit to the -s number of minorities admitted as ! exceptions. Typically, there are 250 to ?i 300 minority exceptions and 80 to 100 exceptions in the athletic, drama and r music departments, Strickland said. n About half of the admission execp- tions graduate, Cashwell said. b Student athletes , have gotten;! an acaaemic aonuy oecause some are exceptions to the regular admission policy, Cashwell said. ! 7o "My dealings with athletes is that they have good reputations, do a good a job 'f: in the classroom and form a positive ; element in the University," Cashwell said. Our process here and our coaches are the best I know of," he said. "As a group, they are concerned with the 2f student athlete's academic . performance." V "There are a heck of a lot athletes ' running around other schools that we wouldn't admit," Cashwell said. ; Evans said, "The faculty is in control of this process." Cashwell said athletes could not be exploited at UNC because of the general college curriculum. There is no room inside the curriculum to allow athletes to take easier courses, he said. Cashwell said he had never been 1 JC V -J U t li: b pressured by the athletic department to admit a student who he did not believe could do the work. UNC Men's Basketball coach Dean Smith said the ideal situation would be to recruit students to the basketball team from those who were already admitted. But he said that was impos sible because of the competition among schools to get top student athletes. Smith said his basketball teams were in the upper one percent academically of teams around the nation. Smith said if one of his admission exception players did not graduate it would mean he was exploited. "Winning is not the goal," Smith said. Evans said the issue of exploitation was complicated. There might be a variety of reasons why someone did not graduate," Evans said. "Just because the individual did not graduate does not mean he did not learn anything and did not benefit from being on campus." The University makes a serious effort to provide athletes an academic support program, including tutors and set study hours, Evans said. "I would feel uncomfortable about bringing a student without support," he said.

Sure, many people reading this are saying to themselves, "Well, she can't be so positive she isn't going to fall for the guy all over again," and that's always a possibility. How ever, the tone of your letter didn't reveal those vibes. My best advice is to be 'friendly but firm. Some say breaking a heart with a smile is a lot easier. Good luck. SHE 4 60 '( mil Dear Steven: I'm getting married in three months and am about to send out the first batch of invitations. Of course, all of my sorority sisters are planning to attend, and many of them will be part of the ceremony. I love them all, and would hate to think anyone would have to make a major financial sacrifice just to get me a gift. Would it be tacky for me to write something like 'gifts not necessary' at the bottom of each invitation? The woman my mom chose to arrange these things is a real idiot. After reading your column I know you have more sense, and I like the idea of getting a man's opinion for a change. Bride-to-Be in N.C. Dear Bride: Thanks for the kind 104FF N.C.

No matter what you write you know they'll be getting you something. There's really no way to prevent the well-meaning gesture. Sure, you can make a notation on the invitation but I doubt youH get much compliance. Hinting around the house is another option, but don't get your hopes up and be sure to have plenty of thank you notes on hand. Congratulations. Dear Steven: My roommate's friend has the appetite of a horse. As soon as she walks into the apartment she raids the refrigator. Remember the scene in the movie ET where ET checks out the frig and samples everything in it? Well, that's what it's like when Ms. PRICES EFFECTIVE SUNDAY, NOV. 24 THRU SAT., NOV. 30 AT A&P IN CARRBORO ITEMS OFFERED FOR SALE NOT AVAILABLE TO OTHER RETAILERS OR WHOLESALERS.

I'm really not upset about the food because there's enough to go around. It's just that she's so sloppy sometimes. Plus, I don't know how someone can shovel down so much yet stay so perfectly slim and trim. Am I being picky? Should I put my foot down? Save Me a Slice at UNC G Dear Save: I once lived in a house with four other guys, one of whom liked to hide his food all over the place. He'd stash candy bars in his shoes, conceal crackers in his closet . . . pretty ridic ulous since no one would want to eat the garbage he bought anyway. Going r ii i i i i . 7M6 $ 591 am lj ZJ mm over your roommate's head directly to the source of your aggravation probably ; will make matters worse. Ask your roomy to give her friend a few lessons in neatness, reminding her in a civil manner that the mess is for her to clean up, too. Also, why not consider breaking bread with your high-calorie visitor. Maybe shell fill you in on some of her keep trim secrets. Good luck. Copyright 1985 by Steven J. Austin.
