The Daily Tar HeelThursday, April 27, 19899 Move-out n o pair no mi Program r I r r v I ni l frnr? 1 rrn o n n no f 1 Li By GENIE VALKER Staff Writer r In an effort to alleviate residence Halls' traffic problems, the UNC ''fcfepartment of Transportation and Jerking Services is instituting a , rhove-out plan during the exam " period. The plan is designed to help "-students get close to the buildings and Sm6ve out of their halls relatively 'quickly, said John DeVitto, director of transportation and parking. Resembling a moving-in procedure instituted in the fall, the plan will eerve several parking spaces in front vothe residence halls where vehicles can be loaded without being ticketed '".or towed, DeVitto said. - voThere will be a 40-minute time limit I6n each vehicle using one of the designated spaces. Monitors win log '.-the time of entry of a vehicle as well as make sure the fire lanes stay clear. The monitors will be personnel T .fcom the McLaurin Parking Services. c rBecause of the time limit, students -should be ready to load all of their r. belongings before pulling a vehicle tinto a space, area directors said Tuesday. ."Students need to realize they must be all packed before they bring their 'Ors around," said Ann Stevens, Morrison area director. " Area directors also suggested that 4 students have others help load their belongings in an effort to streamline ''"the procedure. ' z-There is a real need for a program ' io neip tne trainc prooiem, area directors said. -'f ""It will be very helpful, and the -transportation and parking service is ,:,?eally trying to help the situation," -):said Roger Nelson, Olde Campus (-;area director. Gary Johnson, Ehringhaus area 'director, said one of the biggest "advantages would be that fire lanes f 'Will stay clear. When a large number k -of people try to get close to the halls, ? -these lanes often get blocked, he said. cOirjhe spring move-out period is not as hectic as the fall move-in because jitv,is spread over a week's period, .'"whereas in the fall all of the moving -''takes place in a few days, Johnson c':said. -"-'Students expressed excitement rchbout the system because in the past sparking near the residence halls ' meant risking getting a parking ticket. :.o-.i'm sure the program will help; "J tliey need something like this because f-3udents need a chance to get their 'things out without having to park 'Illegally and take the chance of getting -''ticket " said Michelle Freedman, a 'sophomore from Clarkton. -The residence halls included in the '"rprogram are Morrison, Hinton James, Ehringhaus, Craige, Teague '-''Carmichael, Aycock and Cobb ''Lewis. Residents will receive letters '-.with further details from their area directors.

How much can I get? With this commitment we are able to offer 50 of retail price on books that publishers classify as text and 331 3 of retail price on all books classified as trade. What about books no longer used? A buyer will offer you the current wholesale price on all books that have a value. This price is determined by the law of supply and demand, and if the book has been in circulation for a long time or is not being used by many other schools, this price will probably be less. Many students feel their books are worth more to them for their personal library than the amount the bookstore can offer for them. This you must decide for yourself .
