Four E)ollar Hike
Board Votes Activity Fee Raise;
AC Radio Station Plans Continue
By GUY MILLER
The Executive Board has voted
to increase the student activities
fee from $31 to $35.
At. the meeting' held Monday
night, Dave Smith, president of the
Cooperative Association, yielded
the chair to the vice-president dur
ing part of the meeting. Smith
then presented a proposal that stu
dent activities fee be increased
from, the present $31 to $35 and
that the four dollar difference be
added to the student activity part
of the fee and not to the athletic
association portion of the fee. The
proposal passed.
It was pointed out that'unless
the fee is increased, the school
will have to continue with a cur
tailed program of activities; but
with this proposed increase, some
expansion of student activities
would be possible.
Douglas Ouzts and E. B. Shear-
in, representing the newly formed
Radio Club, appeared before the
Board. Ouzts stated the aims and
goals of the Radio Club and pre
sented other pertinent information.
He said the club needs a minimum
of $210 to begin initial broadcast
ing.
Dr. William Troutman, faculty
representative on the Board, ex
pressed th ebelief that such a proj
ect, if implemented, could become
a third main agency of campus
communication, ranking with THE
COLLEGIATE and the PINE
KNOT. As such, Dr. Troutman felt
that the Executive Board would
desire to sponsor and have ulti
mate control of the station and
club, and advise and help the
morc-or-less autonomous club.
Dr. Troutman saw in this one
of the most promising additions to
the college program recently.
President Smith set up a com
mittee to work with the Radio
Club officers and make further in
vestigation and plans for com
mencing broadcasting as soon as
possible. The entire Executive
Board present expressed interest
in this venture.
Smith presented a second resolu
tion, proposing that the two open
chapel periods in April which have
been given to the Executive Board,
be used for the purpose of holding
panel discussions concerning hu
man relations.
During discussion on this pro
posal, the question arose as to why
there have been no recent general
assemblies. Smith stated that it is
not the fault of the Executive
Board because there have been
none recently, but rather it is a
result of conflicts in chapel pro
gram arrangements.
Discussion on the proposed mo
tion evolved to the use of these
periods to inform students as to
the need of increasing the student
activities fee and on other Execu
tive Board matters.
The motion was defeated.
Smith announced that he is going
to send a copy of ACC’s constitu
tion and Bulldog to the N. C. Wes
leyan College at Rocky Mount.
This institution has asked for in
formation about ACC’s govern
mental system, and Smith express
ed the opinion that such informa
tion may be helpful to this new col
lege in forming its student govern
ment.
