• vol. 7, no. 7 • the university of north Carolina at asheville • • monday, november 29, 1971 Restructuring: Some Concrete Effects of The New Legislation on N.C.’s Universities On Saturday, October 30 the General Assembly passed a far-reaching act which re-organizes all state supported higher education in North Carolina. The essential elements of the re-organization are as described herein. The statement ot purpose of Chapter 1244 of the Gen eral Statutes of North Caro lina reads as follows: “In order to foster the deve lopment of a well-planned and co-ordinated system of higher education, to improve the quality of education, to extend its benefits and to encourage an economical use of the state’s resources, the University of North Carolina is hereby redefined in accordance with the provi sions of this article.” “On July 1, 1972, the Uni versity of North Carolina shall be composed of the following institutions: (here are listed in six campuses of the University of North Car olina, as it now exists, plus the ten state campuses not now a part of the Consoli dated University).” Thei-e will be no name change for any campus. In order to illustrate the substance of the new statute the following chronological list of events is presented: I. December 31, 1971 (A) Board of Trustees of UNC (now 100 members) selects 16 members to go on new Board of Governors; (B) Boards of Trustees, Regional Universities, select 16 mem bers to go on new Board of Governors; (C) Board of High er Education selects two non voting members for Board of Governors (terms expire July 1, 1973); (D) Boards of Trustees for each of six campuses of UNC selected from trustees not going on SGA To Begin New Film Series The SGA seems to be hav ing second thoughts about its movie program now. After spending approximately $1800. for films shown so far this year, or to be shown before the end of this semes ter, the SGA has noted that there is a lack of response by the students. Warner Brothers has be gun a new series of films which operate on a differ ent scale than did the films shown previously. The new films are shown on campus with each person paying a nomibal fee of 55c and then, Warner Brothers collects a percentage of the gate. It is a no-risk arrangement for the SGA. There is less of a chance that the students will end up paying $150. for a film that no one ever sees. Much of the students con fusion about the film series began in first term when films were advertised and never chown due to unavoid able technical problems. The new series fo films off ered by Warner Brothers in cludes “Joe”, “Othello”, “Camelot”, and will start in January. The money now paid by students for the film series will be redirected into other areas which might prove to be of more interest to the students, according to Gene Ochsenreiter, Chairman of the Social Commision of the SGA. The money may be applied toward the engage ment of an outstanding speaker, or another concert in the spring. Board of Governors; Chairman, becomes a ' Plan- II. January 1, 1972 ning Committee.
