ate students is welcome to use the
service. Assistant Director Glen Martin
said.
Between 800 and 1 ,000 students use
the counseling center each year, Martin
said.
But Martin said the number of Uni
versity students who used the center
was low compared to the number of
students who had to choose a career
each year.
"Given that everyone must choose a
career or major, we could help a much
larger (number of students)," Martin
said.

random arson and should consider pass-

Students first speak with a counselor
about their interests in a half-hour meet
ing, Martin said. They usually are ad
vised to take the Strong Interest Inven
tory or the Sigi Computerized Interac
tion Program.
The tests broadly characterize the
test-taker's personality type and make
specific career matches. The Sigi pro
gram also allows students to explore
certain career fields, Martin said.
Freshman year is the best time to
begin career exploration, Martin said.

out careers . . . takes plenty of time," he

"If it had been a random news rack, it
wouldn't be a big deal," Ferguson said.
"I think the town definitely should view
this as an act targeting one group.
"Most likely, this wasn't something
that was planned out," he said. "Some
body probably just dropped a match in
out of gut-level hatred or ignorance."

said.
After deciding on a potential career,
the next source of employment infor
mation is the University Career Re
source Library, located in 211 Hanes
Hall.
Vergie Taylor, career planning coun
selor and resource librarian, said the
library's programs and materials were
designed to help students focus on a
small list of potential careers.
"If students are totally undecided,
they might want to start with Nash Hall
to explore interests and values," Taylor
said. "Our programs help students in-

GLAD, said the town could help de
crease the number of anti-gay incidents
by increasing its police patrol force.
But Herzenberg said it wasn't fea
sible for the town to increase the num
ber of police officers on patrol.
"There's no way there would be
enough officers to prevent acts of vio
lence," he said. "The most important
thing the town can do is to establish a
moral and social climate where vandal
ism, and especially vandalism against
the oppressed, is not tolerated."
Herzenberg said that although the
fire appeared suspicious, he did not
think it was fair to speculate whether it
was an act of anti-gay violence. Other
news racks, including ones containing
The New York Times and The Daily
Tar Heel, have been set on fire, he said.
"It would be easy to say this was an
anti-gay act," he said. "But I don' t think
you can draw any conclusions."

The library offers a variety of pro
grams, including an Internship Finder,
the Carolina Connection, workshops and
job interviews, Taylor said.
The Internship Finder offers students
a variety of ways to access information,
depending on criteria such as career
area, location of internship, time of year
and whether the internship will be paid
or unpaid.
The Carolina Connection is a com
puter listing of UNC alumni who have
agreed to answer questions and work
with students interested in exploring a
particular career.
The center holds workshops through
out the year about internships and job
hunting skills.
Seniors wishing to interview for jobs
through the library are required to at
tend a 45-minute workshop called "Job
Hunting 101."
Taylor said she thought the career
information offered by the library was
Concert
era pieces relating to the racial preju
dice facing black Americans. After the
performance by the Ebony Readers was
one by the Opeyo! Dancers.
Kenric Maynor and Billy Strickland,
members of the Carolina Indian Circle
and Unheard Voices, performed pieces
about the plight of Native Americans.
Maynor said Native Americans must
perform informative pieces like those
presented "until at last the unheard
voices are no longer unheard."

"one of the best-kept secrets on cam
pus." More students, including under
classmen, could benefit from the re
sources, she said.
"This kind of information is so valu
able," she said. "So many students are
not aware of our services or how many
companies will interview people with
any major."
Taylor said students should begin
exploring potential careers as early as
possible.
"We're for everyone, not just se
niors," Taylor said. "It's never too
early."
The University Counseling Center is
open Monday through Friday from 8
a.m. to 5 p.m., and the University Ca

internships should contact Internship

more from Four Oaks, to read Maya
Angelou' s "Why the Caged Bird Sings."
Poston also recited a portion of James
Weldon Johnson' s "On Judgment Day,"
as well as his own improvisation. Poston
appeared in the PlayMakers Repertory
Company's production of "Prelude to a
Kiss" earlier this year.
About 15 members of Tar Heel
Voices performed several pop hits and
concluded with the alma mater, from
which the group gets its name.
Baumann said the interaction be
tween performers and audience mem
bers and the general informal atmo
sphere made the evening a success.
"It made for a really fun night."
