The program is modeled after the old Morehead Fellowship in Law program, which was discontinued in 1984, said Judith Wegner, associate dean of the law school. The School of Law used to receive three Morehead Fellowships each year, said Ronald Link, acting dean of the law school. But the Morehead Fellowships for the professional Morehead By SIMONE PAM Staff Writer About 120 high school seniors will visit UNC this weekend for final interviews for John Motley More head scholarships. The Morehead scholarship is awarded to high school seniors based on academic merit, said Charles Bowman, asssociate director of the Morehead Foundation. The scholar ship pays for students' tuition, room and board, and expenses. The students will visit Chapel Hill March 4-7. Each candidate will be assigned two UNC Morehead scho lars to serve as hosts. In addition to interviews, the students will attend informal receptions with Morehead scholars, a breakfast with faculty and trustees, an information session, and a formal banquet. The candidates will be interviewed on Monday and Tuesday. The Search committee to fill executive posts By DANA CLINTON LUMSDEN Staff Writer Now that UNC students have elected a student body president, the president-elect and a search commit tee will start selecting people to fill key executive branch positions, including the new office of student body vice president. Applications for the offices of student body vice president, student body treasurer and student body secretary were made available Thurs day and will be due March 10 at 1 p.m. Students who are interested in the positions can pick up the applications Interested in campus opinion?

"The Morehead Fellowships enabled us to attract some of the very best law students in the country," Link said. Most individual professional schools have since created their own scholarship programs, Lovelace said. The law school decided it needed a major merit scholarship program hopefuls winners should be notified of the final selection Wednesday or Thursday, Bowman said. "The weekend trip to UNC was established to bring highly qualified students to campus to show them what a fantastic place Chapel Hill is," he said. "Students should gain an appreciation of what UNC has to offer, as well as having an enjoyable time. "I hope they will walk away with a feeling that Chapel Hill is a special place to come to college." The seniors will also have time to attend classes, tour campus and attend campus social functions, Bowman said. Current Morehead scholars said the weekend helped convince them to attend UNC and gave them a good impression of the University. "I eained a sense of the atmosphere here at Carolina," said Kenny Abner, in Suite C of the Student Union. The new vice president position was created by a student referendum, which passed with a vote of 3,656 to 920 in the Feb. 21 general election. "The office of the vice president was set up to be as non-political as possible," Student Body President elect Brien Lewis said Thursday. "I think that that is shown in the way that the selection process is set up." A selection committee will vote on the office of vice president, along with those of treasurer and secretary. The selection committee will consist of the chief justice of the Student Supreme Court, who will chair the committee; Check out every Monday's DTH American Haart ff) Association u EAST FRANKLIN CHAPEL HILL 067-8665 BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS Michelle Pfeiffer BEST ART DIRECTION Art Direction: Stuart Craig Set Decoration: Gerard James BEST ORIGINAL SCORE George Fenton GLENN ClOSf JOHN MALKCMG1 MOfUIFftlfffR WNGf ROUS LIAISONS mxj.. nam mm TO ANNOUNCE THE OF THE YEAR?

"There was no perceptible change in the quality of our applicants after the Morehead Fellowships were discontinued, but it was more of an impressionistic feeling that we might have lost a few superstars that the Morehead program would have attracted," Link said. The law school invited about 100 of its top applicants to apply for the scholarships, Wegner said. Of these, 20 applicants will be interviewed at the law school April 1. They will also meet students and faculty at the law school and observe to Interview at UNC a freshman from Fayetteville. "Caro lina is not only a place of expanding intellectual horizons, but it is also a place you can come to and have a good time, too." Donnie Esposito, a sophomore from Clemmons, said: "I gained an exceedingly positive image of Caro lina. It felt good to know a school really wanted you. "I also learned my way around campus," he added. "I was able to speak with advisers in the Honors program, meet other Morehead finalists, go to the ACC swimming championships and attend a Chi Psi party." . At the beginning of the selection process, between 1,000 and 1,200 high school seniors competed for the scholarship, Bowman said. Seventy N.C. residents have been selected after a series of interviews at local and regional levels. two congress members appointed by the speaker; a representative of current president Kevin Martin; and a representative of president-elect Lewis. The selection committee will pick three finalists, and the president-elect will choose one of those, who must be approved by Student Congress. Student Congress Speaker Neil Riemann said he felt the proposed selection process for the vice president would be effective because it attemp ted to get the politics out of the selection. "When it first came out (the referendum), I had a lot of problems with it," Riemann said. "Now that Kevin has worked on it, I believe that there is no way that the appointment could be a political decision." Lewis said he was glad the student body passed the referendum because he had seen a heed for a vice president in the past. "There is really a need for one," he said. "The vice president really has two responsibilities. One is to con centrate on all the appointments that the SBP makes to the various boards and chancellor committees, (and) the other is to fill in for the president, just in case. The SBP cant be in two places at the same time." The office will require a lot of experience and time commitment, Lewis said.

Six of the awards are full scholar ships in the form of financial aid, tuition remissions, and research and teaching assistant positions, Link said. An equal number of awards will be given to in-state and out-of-state students. ; ' Four scholarships in lesser amounts may also be provided, Link said. The scholarships will strengthen the reputation of the law school, and that will benefit the University as; a whole, Link said. "A great university should have a prominent law school." The students are competing for about 60 spaces, Bowman said. I Twelve Canadian candidates will visit this weekend, but they are riot competing against the other candi dates in the program. These students are in competition with each other for four Morehead scholarships that are selected separately from the U;S. program. 1 The Morehead Foundation looks for scholarship, leadership, character and physical vigor in a candidate, Bowman said. ' The John Motley Morehead Foun dation was established in 1945. The 1957 graduating class was the first to be awarded the scholarship. "The Morehead scholarship attracts some of the best students around the country," Bowman said. "There are a fair number of students who would not consider this school without this drawing card." u government. The reason for that is if a piano were to fall on. my head or something, the vice president would have to take the place of the president. "You have to be someone who can work with the administration and students," Lewis said. "You have to have the ability to see the big picture. Administrators are under a lot of pressures; students are just a compo nent of the pie. Understanding both sides of an issue is key." Along with the executive expe rience involved with the position, the vice president must be able to commit to the time required. "It is a pretty big time commitment. I spent two to three hours a day doing the appoint ments, and this office will require more time commitment because of the meetings the vice president will have to attend," said Lewis. : There is some time, commitment involved with the offices of the student body treasurer and secretary as well, Lewis said. "The role of the secretary and treasurer is defined in the Student Code. The secretary is defined as taking care of the archives, etcetera, but with this type of an administration the secretary will help with the administration. An executive secretary just isn't enough." The target date for the selection of the offices is March 29, a week before inauguration, Lewis said. Present J : : :--: :-;-: : ft BiLLsTed's gdvcnlure fim flies when youV having fun.
