Government plans to recommend
changes to the Traffic and Parking
Advisory Committee's seven-point
parking proposal at the committee's
Sept. 30 meeting.
.. Students, Residence Hall Associ
ation officers, Student Government
officials and traffic and parking
officials met at 9 p.m. Wednesday in
Carmichael Residence Hall to air
grievances and discuss solutions for
the parking crunch at UNC.
The first point of the student
amendment suggests retaining stu

sophomores and juniors, instead of
turning those spaces over to faculty
and staff, said Trey Lochran, exec

. WUNC-TV, a statewide public
television network, and WUNC-FM,
the Triangle's public radio station, are
requesting state funds through the
Board of Governors for a new tower,
station officials said Wednesday.
Although the radio station is
licensed and operated separately from
the television network, they are
working together on the funding
request. WUNC-TV is requesting
$3.9 million for the new tower, which
would replace the one in Chatham
County that has been standing since
1955. WUNC-FM is requesting
$300,000 for a radio antenna that

summer internship program

T"l veryone wants to have the
ideal summer sunning in
iithe great outdoors, working
at a neat internship or traveling to
exotic places.
But how many people actually
get to experience such an idyllic
summer?
Fifty college students from
across the nation, including UNC
senior Eileen Carlton, did just
that this summer by participating
in a new program railed Leader
ship America.
During its second summer, .
Leadership America offered out
standing rising seniors the chance
to develop leadership skills in uni
que ways. The 50 participants,
chosen from a pool of 1,000 appli
cants, spent 10 weeks in the
program.
Highlights of the program
include one week at Colorado
Outward Bound, four weeks in a
self-selected internship in various
locations around the country and
world, and a closing session in
Washington, D.C.
Carlton, an education major
from Boomer, spent her intern
ship researching federal funding
for colleges and universities at the
Department of Education in
Washington, D.C.
"I learned a great deal about
bureaucracy," Carlton said. "But
the neat thing about being in
Washington was that I stayed
with the head campaign manager
for Jesse Jackson."
Carlton added that such expe
riences as staying with Jackson's
campaign manager make Leader
ship America a "networking sys
tem." Students can make valuable
contacts that will be useful when
they get into the working world,
azz trio to perform
By RANDY BASINGER
Stafl Writer
Are your ears tired of listening to
Robert Palmer pound out the words
to "Simply Irresistable"? Do you
crave the soulful riffs of jazz grooves?
Then check out the UNC Black
Cultural Center on Thursday, Sept.
22, with a free concert featuring The
Rituals an internationally known
jazz trio from Chicago.
The trio consists of bassist Malachi
Favors, saxaphonist Ari Brown, and
percussionist Kahil ElZabar. Favors
has worked with the world-famous
Art Ensemble of Chicago for more
than two decades; Brown has toured
with groups led by drummer Elvin
Jones and pianist McCoy Tyner; and
ElYabar has performed with such big
names as Dizzy Gillespie and Stevie
Wonder.
The band has gained critical
acclaim from the Jazz Institute of
Chicago, which reported: "Their
music runs from the ancient to the
future Kahil has a range of style
and content from Africa to Chicago
or perhaps more accurately from
Chicago to Africa."
"The Rituals are music visionaries
known all over the world for their
powerful black cultural music. It's
been called avant-garde jazz, African

ident, said eliminating sophomore
parking will add few spaces on North
and Mid Campus and only about 275
on South Campus.
"There's a risk of students losing
a great deal, but there's not that much
to be gained by the other side," he
said. "Even if they took all student
parking away, it (the parking shor
tage) would still be an issue in a few
years."
Students, faculty and staff all
compete for UNC parking spaces,
and each group has its own argu
ments for space, said Mary Clayton,
director of transportation and park
ing services.
"You still have this group of people
who think parking should be and is
an employee benefit," Clayton said.
"Primarily, it's not the faculty who
commute long distances. It's the

if the funds are allotted.
Chancy Kapp, program develop
ment officer for the Center for Public
Television, said it is common for
more than one station to broadcast
from the same tower.
"We would be more than happy
to have WUNC-FM as a tenant, and
we hope everything will work out,"
Kapp said.
Requests for funding are submitted
to the General Assembly through the
BOG. The legislature will convene in
early January and will, over a course
of six or seven months, decide to
accept or reject budget requests. If
funds are approved for WUNC-TV
she said. And they will be able to
continue relations with these
future contacts through Leader
ship America reunions every two
years.
The program helps students
learn more about leadership
through a one-week session at the
Center for Creative Leadership
(CCL) in Greensboro and three
w eeks of classroom-based activi
ties in Dallas.
At the CCL, the students did a
self-analysis through group work
and a battery of tests on leader- .
ship styles. While working in
groups to solve problems, the stu
dents were videotaped with hid
den cameras. Later, each individ
ual had a session with a
psychologist who gave insight on
strengths and weaknesses. The
students kept these tapes for later
comparison with improvements.
In Dallas, the program featured
speakers who exposed the stu
dents to international issues such
as U.S. foreign relations and busi
ness practices. The participants
did a lot of role-playing in con
junction with the speeches.
Carlton said one of the issues
the group discussed was South
Africa. The minorities in the class
acted as the majority, and vice
versa. The class then came up
with a solution to the racial prob
lems. Their solution mirrored the
real solutions being used in South
Africa.
The participants continued their
work on problem solving through
out the summer. They were
divided into groups of five and
given a pertinent social issue, such
as teenage pregnancy, to research
and give solutions for. The groups

the legitimacy of the effort.
"How serious can an investigation
be when they report nothing even
though injustice and corruption have
been documented?" he asked. "It is
the obligation of the government to
show the people the truth about the
discrimination and corruption occur
ring there."
The FBI has not granted immunity

said.

Students expressed concerns that
redistributing spaces won't solve the
University's parking shortage but will
only rearrange it.
"They need to solve the big issue
instead of going from year to year
and taking it from group to group,"
said Brian Sipe, a former parking
advisory committee member. "You
can't justify taking it (student park
ing) away unless you have a major
plan that you're working towards,"
he said.
The amendment also suggests di
viding the proposed $25 increase in
student fees for transit costs among
faculty, staff and students.
The transit system is "presumably
oriented to students, but not neces
sarily so," Clayton said.

Because WUNC-TV is a statewide
network with 10 TV stations, it has
many needs, and a new Chatham
tower is just one priority, Kapp said.
.Wyndham Robertson, vice presi
dent of communication for the UNC

that the funds will be granted but that
it depends on the amount of money

Robertson said. "We just think that

Carlton said she thought the pro
gram was invaluable in her devel
opment as a leader. One of the
benefits was that she got to see
herself through other people, she
said.
"It was fantastic! I became
more in touch with me I got to
really see my strengths and wea
knesses," Carlton said. .
Carlton added that most of the
participants were perfectionistic
and heavily involved on campus. -She
said the program helped them
deal with their high self- '
expectations, teaching them that
all a person can do is his or her
best.
Given the quality of the Leader
ship America program and the
competitive nature of the appli
cants, it may seem an impossible
goal to be selected for the pro
gram. But grade point average is
not the most important factor in
the decision, said Stan Altschuler,
executive director for the
program.
Instead, community leaders
from various cities who read the
applications focus on leadership
potential, as well as success and
impact on extracurricular
activities.
"The goal of Leadership Amer
ica is to give students unique
insights into leadership and also
to give them experience," Alt
schuler said. "We also want to
provide an incentive for all stu
dents to get more involved on
campus."

Members of North Carolina's

travel all over the state to investigate
requests for funds, recently visited the
33-year-old tower.
Jo Graham Foster, a representative
from Charlotte and a member of the
commission, said she will recommend
that money be allotted for a new

commission still has several days
before it finalizes the recommenda

a new tower has considerable
support.

A close encounter:
to know Earth's red
By DAVID ABERNATHY
Staff Writer
f your creative juices have
already begun to run dry and
Jiyou are having trouble coming
up with a substantial reason to
party, consider this Mars is closer
to Earth today than it has been in 17
years. And it won't happen again
until the year 2003.
The Planetary Society, the largest
space interest group in the world, is
taking advantage of this rare occa
sion by organizing Mars Watch 88,
a program designed to get everyone
better acquainted with our neighbor
ing planet. The society, in coopera
tion with astronomy groups and pla
netariums across the country, is
conducting various Mars Watch
activities, including lectures and tele
scope viewing sessions.
No formal events will take place
in Chapel Hill, but some faculty and
interested people will attempt to
photograph Mars through the tele
scope at the Morehead Planetarium.
"Mars is as close as it is going to
get," said Bruce Carney, associate .
professor of astronomy. "And the
closer it is, the bigger it is and the
better the features."
Although astronomers will be
present at Morehead, no scientific
data will be collected.
"It's more hobby-oriented than
anything else," Carney said.
The Planetary Society, founded in
1980 by Carl Sagan, Bruce Murray
and Louis Friedman, hopes to
increase interest in the prospect of
human exploration through Mars
Watch 88. For more than four years
the society has endorsed the goal of
human missions to Mars, saying the
missions would be a peaceful focus
for the world's spacefaring nations.

direction in the last few years," Car
ney said. "The society acts as a lob

Shivers said increasing height
would "improve quality of reception
within the coverage area, and it would
also increase the coverage area."
Because of the need to improve
reception, the radio station is looking
into renting space on another tower
if the request to build a new one is
not approved. However, such a move
would be very costly, Wright said.
WUNC-FM is pursuing a lease
with a commercial tower that would
cost them $300,000 for 10 years, the
same amount they would pay for an
antenna on the new tower that would
last about 30 years.
