2The Daily Tar HeelMonday, February 25, 1991 imrnier school registration to begin March By Billy Stockard Staff Writer Students who want to take a lighter course load, raise their grade point av erages or just spend the summer in Chapel Hill can register for summer school starting March 28. James Murphy, dean of summer, school and an economics professor, said Friday that the Summer School Direc tory of Classes would be available March 4 in Hanes Hall, before Spring Break. Early registration begins March 28 for seniors and ends April 26 for all students. This is the first time the Caroline telephonic registration system will be used for summer school, Murphy said. The system is scheduled to open again May 15 for late registration. Students can attend either the first' summer session, which begins May 20 and ends June 24, or the second session, which begins June 26 and ends July 3 1 . Because Caroline is being used, stu dents must pay tuition and fees earlier than in the past. Tuition is due May 3 for the first session and June 7 for the second session, Murphy said. According to the Summer School Record, the tuition and fees for N.C. residents total $200 for each three-hour course. For a non-resident, the amount is $740. The cost for six hours is $290 Town council By Dawn Spiggle Staff Writer The Chapel Hill Town Council will discuss a proposal tonight for shared site and facility use in the construction of future Chapel Hill-Carrboro City School projects. The resolution, proposed by the School Board, stated that the board approved construction in November of four new Chapel Hill-Carrboro schools before the year 2000. Future athletic fields, tennis courts, swimming pools and nature centers should be constructed in the most effi cient manner to provide maximum benefit for both students and town members, according to the resolution. Gymnasiums, media centers, cafeterias auditoriums also should be given r 1 TRAVEL i RELATED I 1 SERVICES 9 An Amncan Eapnm company Complete terms and conditions of this travel offer for residents and $1,370 for non-residents. Although 900 courses are available per session, summer at Chapel Hill is more like a small college atmosphere, Murphy said. "There'll only be 5,000 undergradu ates around in the summer instead of 15,000, so it's probably roughly one third of the courses," he said. Summer school classes meet every day for five and a half weeks, Murphy said. Each class lasts an hour and a half. Summer school is also available to students who don't regularly attend the University, Murphy said. There's a greater variety of students during the summer, he said. For the first time, the University is offering 30 to 35 summer evening classes, which will let people who work during the day get some courses under their belts at night, he said. Heidi Pender, a junior from Kemersville, said summer school was a good opportunity for students to get ahead, as long as they avoided taking too many courses. "It's easy to get burned-out if you take too many classes," she said. Pender said summer school gave stu dents a better chance to meet the pro fessor. Jan Elliott, a lecturer in the School of to consider sharing facilities consideration in future construction. But the community's economic strain should be particularly emphasized in the planning, the report said. School Board Chairwoman Sue Baker said the town already had shared some facilities with the school system, but that facilities were not always easily accessible. "The swim team has a terrible time finding a place to practice," Baker said. Because school facilities also were used by town members, the needs of the community should be established before construction begins, she said. "(We) ought to have good planning so that we'll be able to meet the needs of all the citizens," The council meeting will provide a means of incorporating citizens' needs in the planning, Baker said. Careful American Express Announces A Great New Travel Program. Now students can get the Card and get 3 roundtrips oh Continental Airlines, for only 129 or $189 each. There's only one way to cover a lot of territory without spending a lot of money. And that's by getting the American Express Card. It's the only card that offers an exciting new travel program exclusively for students including three roundtrip certificates on Continental Airlines.

Professors who teach both sessions of ten are burned out by the following November, she said. The summer school atmosphere is more relaxed, but the work is more intense because classes meet every weekday, Elliott said. This applies particularly to skills courses such as news writing, she said. "We cram one week's work into one day," she said. The smaller, more frequent classes provide an atmosphere where students and teachers get to know each other better, Elliott said. Amos McKenzie, a sophomore from Rocky Mount, said he went to both sessions last year to get some perspec tive requirements out of the way. He said summer school was not for every body. "There aren't a lot of people here," he said. "It's just like high school, be cause you go to class every day." Murphy said smaller classes provided more individual attention. Since stu dents and teachers are only concentrat ing on one or two courses instead of five, they can put more time into the course and generally do better, he said. Some students may not like the in planning should take place to prevent duplicate buildings and unnecessary costs for the taxpayer. "(Collaborate facilities) make good business sense," she said. Town council member Julie Andresen said she wanted more clarifi cation on the resolution. "I think cooperation is certainly a good idea," she said) "I just don't know how this is different from anything we've done in the past." The council will need to consider taxpayers' interests and where the land for the facilities would come from, she said. 'The town is in as great a difficulty economically as the school system," Andresen said. Membership Has Its Privileges responsible for fulfillment of this offer. American Express assumes 28 tense work during summer school, de spite the relaxed setting, he said. "You get a lot of stuff jammed to gether," Murphy said. "And it's prob ably more difficult in the minds of some people. A lot of people can't put up with the pressure." Harold Andrews, a music professor who has taught summer school classes, said his department tried to schedule classes that were more appropriate for the intense summer school study. Some classes are harder to handle in the summer, he said. "Some of them can't be digested in five weeks," Andrews said. "But it's ourresponsibility not to schedule those." Murphy said all summer classes were scheduled in air-conditioned class rooms, and students were placed in air conditioned residence halls for the sessions unless they requested other wise. Spaces are still available for summer study abroad, but students need to apply this week, Murphy said. These are classes taught by University faculty in foreign countries that enhance the classwork, he said. Locations include Greece, Switzerland and West Africa. Studying abroad costs $2,000 to $3,000, but students can receive up to six hours of course credit, Murphy said. with schools Jule Andresen x 1 V. -i w 48 contiguous states.

Straley said that when the Commu nity Church declared itself a sanctuary from the war, Sheldon clarified the sanctuary's necessity. "We'll have to take some renewed encouragement from Bob," he said. "We have the people, we have the commit ment. Let's see if we can't let Bob's life continue in its meaning to the commu nity." Most of Sheldon's friends empha sized the importance of keeping Inter nationalist Books open. Alan McSurely, the lawyer repre senting Sheldon's family, said the par ents would inherit all of Sheldon's be longings, but that the family and friends would try to keep the store operating. Straley solicited the names of people at the service and in the community who would be willing to help keep the store Edwards understand the injustices she alleged and would decide in her favor. Battle also ruled that state law pre vents Edwards from recovering mon etary damages from University em ployees acting in their official capacity, including Chancellor Paul Hardin, un der the Doctrine of Sovereign Immu nity.

The diverse group at the service was a tribute to the close contact Sheldon had with individuals in the community and his ability to relate with almost anybody, Straley said after the service.
