"1 believe there is fundamentally a shift in the need to attain material goods," said Peter Topping, director of undergraduate studies at UNC's Business School. "What we heard of the 'me generation' is very true. People are more concerned with status and material goods than I like to see." Topping said the Business School CLASS HifjijS 1987 r DTHJulie Stovall promotes ethics by offering exposure to ethical questions in classes such as business law, business policy, and organizational behavior. The School of Business tries to approach the question of ethics at the undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate level, said Jack Behr man, a Luther Hodges Distinguished Professor of business. "We raise issues and discuss the way people who got into trouble should have acted," he said. These issues include lying in business, insider trading, discrimination in the work force, and sexual harassment. "The way to teach ethics is to pose students with the problems they will face in the real world," Behrman said. This comes in large part through case study, he added.

Tmiig By BECKY RIDDICK Staff Writer Research Triangle Park's current popularity with hotel developers may finally end the hotel shortage which has plagued the area in the past. Accommodations at a new $7 million Marriott hotel will be avail able to visitors of the Research Triangle Park (RTP) area by mid 1988, according to a recent survey by the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce (DCC). The six-story hotel, which will contain 224 rooms, is a scaled-down version of full service Marriott hotels that usually have up to 400 rooms, said Carolyn Brown, a representative for DCC. Marriott has decided that RTP can support a facility of this size, Brown said. This smaller prototype will be the second of its kind. The first one has already opened in Atlanta, she said. The Marriott hotel will be part of the Vanguard Corporate Center in RTP, located on the northeast corner of Interstate 40 and Old Raleigh Road, Brown said. Groiups join forces for charity By CAROLE FERGUSON Staff Writer This year two Greek organiza tions, Alpha Delta Pi and Sigma Phi Epsilon, are com bining their fund-raising skills to raise money for the Chapel Hill questions more concerned with doing what is right for the company than conduct ing themselves in an ethical way. "We see that we have to exceed tremendously no matter what the cost," Carpenter said. "Everyone keeps pushing you for success." Idalene Kesner, an associate professor of business, said she approaches ethical questions by addressing issues top executives might face. She tries to present current problems such as cheating the government. "We are trying to institute in people the notion that it pays to be ethical," she said. "What we (as a society) ought to do is reward and encourage organ izations which are good corporate citizens," Topping said. "We must be models ourselves as faculty members. If we act immorally, we are being hypocrites." e fares hotel developers The Center will be a research and development office complex with a restaurant and the hotel, said Char les Baker of the Linpro Company, developer of the Vanguard Center. Upon completion, the Center will have 350,000 square feet of office space and a restaurant, along with the Marriott facility. Many corporations are coming out with these smaller hotels, Baker said. For example: nA new 240-room Holiday Inn is to be constructed in RTP's Creek stone Office Park located between Interstate 40 and N.C. 24. BComfort Inn plans to build a five-story 137-room facility on the northeast corner of Interstate 85 and Hillandale Road just beyond How ard Johnson's. This hotel should be completed by summer 1987. DA six-story Hilton Inn with 240 rooms is scheduled for completion in June 1987. The hotel will be located on the north side of Hills borough Road west of Cole Mill Road. nPickett Suite Hotels is planning to open a seven-story 203-room hotel in the fall of 1987 on the Meredian Ronald MacDonald House. The fund-raising events will begin with Games Weekend, which starts Friday and extends through Satur day on the fields beside Carmichael Auditorium. A 24-hour softball tournament will get underway at 4 p.m. Friday, and will be followed by field games on Saturday in which Alpha Delta Pis and Sigma Phi Epsilon members from Duke and East Carolina Universities will participate. Students are invited to organize teams for the softball tournament. Each team is required to pay a $40 tax-deductible entrance fee, all of which goes to the charity. "We have 32 teams playing this year," said John DeSaiva, coordi nator for the fraternity. He said the number of teams playing depends on the number of fields the frater nity can reserve through the UNC intramural office. Most of the teams are made up of UNC students, but DeSaiva said this year an alumni team, a radio station team and two teams from N.C. State will also be playing. Sigma Phi Epsilon has been sponsoring the softball marathon for six years. For the first lour years money raised went to the American Heart Association. "Last year we decided to do it for Ronald McDonald," DeSaiva said. "The cause is a little closer to home." Special StudentYouth Fares to EHMOIPE from New York on Scheduled Airlines!

"Most of these people have come to the area, done feasibility studies, and found it to be a good place for this smaller type of hotel," Brown said.' A few of the new hotels are already open for business in RTP. A new Red Roof Inn opened on Interstate 85 in February of this year. The hotel has 120 rooms, which is about average size for the company, hotel manager Beth Eakes said. Eakes said that the hotel has had a good response since it opened. "Our rates are very competitive. We put a lot of emphasis on good, clean rooms at a low price.". February 1987 also saw the addi tion of a new Cricket Inn on N.C. 55. This facility is the smallest of three hotels the company has opened in the Durham area, manager Al Davis said. The hotel opened in the middle of a snowstorm and still had 40 percent occupancy, he said. Right now the hotel is operating at 80 percent occupancy, and this is good considering the amount of advertis ing the hotel has done, Davis added. All funds raised will be going to the Ronald McDonald House, which is currently under construc tion near the hospital in Chapel Hill and is scheduled to open next February. The Ronald McDonald House is the official philanthropy of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, which holds a fund raiser for the house every year. "Since the ADPis were planning their fund-raiser the same weekend as ours, it worked out really well for us to do it together," DeSaiva said. In a joint effort, the fraternity and sorority are selling T-shirts of the weekend event. Alpha Delta Pis from various campuses in North Carolina get together each year to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House, according to Sarah Cheney, coordi nator for the sorority. "This is our year to host the event," she said. "We thought it would be a lot more fun and we could raise more money if we got together with the guys." Cheney said the sorority's goal is to raise $5,000 for the philanthropy. Sorority and fraternity members from Duke and ECU will be arriv ing Saturday to participate in field games including three-legged rac ing, spoon passing, pie throwing, and wheelbarrow racing. Anyone is invited to come and cheer the UNC teams on, Cheney said. fer free rent . . . you a free, on-site 967-3125 9-6 Mon.-Fri. 10-5 Sat. 1-5 San.
