Funding Bases For Tax
Supported Education In N. C.
Dr. Ronald McCarter of
Southeastern, in a recent
interview, discussed his
views on the funding of
Tax Supported Education.
Dr. McCarter feels that
the North Carolina
legislature’s way of
funding isn’t adequate.
The legislature bases its
way of funding according
to the enrollment of the
institutions in question.
The legislative judges
on the three-party
system: public schools,
community colleges, and
Universities. The public
school funding is based on
the best six of seven
months. The university is
judged by enrollment at
the end of registration in
fall and spring. The two
semesters are averaged
together. Community
colleges are funded by
enrollment at the end of
each quarter. Enrollment
is obviously lower at the
Old of the quarter than at
the beginning. What we
have is the public school
and university receiving
100 percent of its earned
level and the community
colleges earning only
around 80 percent of its
earned level with the
enrollment in community

and the funding going
down. Obvious problems
are bound to occur. Some
community colleges have

SGA Cookout
The Student Govern
ment Association at
S.C.C. sponsored an
annual cookout March 14.
Our students were served
hot dogs with all the
trimmings, potato chips,
and cokes. We consumed
six-hundred hot dogs,
thirty bags of potato
chips, and eight-hundred
cokes.
Some people who helped
make our cookcut a
success were Sue Hawks,
Terry Carr, Fannie
Moore, Judy Sarvis,
Brenda Ebron, Jeannie
Yarboro, Robert Brooks,
and the maintenance
department, who helped
with the equipment.
Southeastern has made it
a tradition to hold a
quarterly cookout, and we
hope to continue this.
Student government,
along with Bob Priest,
would like to thank the
students for helping to
pick up trash and for
conducting themselves in
an outstanding manner.
