PSl Receives Extra SI,925,927
as a Previously I'nder-FunJeJ
Institution
The UNC Board of Governors has
awarded Pembroke State University
an extra $1,925,927 front the UNC
system's recently approved S310
million bond referendum The reason
PSU has been designated as a
pre vlously under funded institution of
tlie I o-campus UNC svstein
In the bond referendum itself
passed last November. PSU's share
was S(>. 146.000 Of that amount. S5.7
million is lor the construction of a
new administration building and
S422.700 is tor renovation of the
Business Administration Bjnlding.
The extra S1.025.927 w ill be used
in the following manner for
renovation of Sampson Hall (the
present administration buddmgi and
as a building supplement to the new
administration building
PSU Chancellor Joseph Oxendine
expressed delight Friday at receiving
this extra money "We are thankful to
President (C D ) Spongier and to the
UNC Board of Governors for making
this possible". Oxendine said.
"Our receiving this money is
based op the previous under funding
of our institution. It is a partial effort
to make up some of the funding
discrepancies of the past
"We are going to be able to do a
lot of good work with this niouev
panicularl v to renovate Sampson Hall
for the expansion of our library?and
also todo some things around the new
administration building that we did
not have in the original S6 I million
funding."
All of this means the hammers
will be busy around PSU for the
remainder of 1994 and also in 1995 as
new buildings and improvements
spring up on the PSU campus It is
another sign of great progress at an
ever improving institution

Over Ike last few month*, there has
been same controversy over ike role
of LROA end the constitutional
assembly It would seem th* everyone
involved would went to do what is
right for the L urn bee nation This u
not the case Last week the' LRDA
board u>tcd to halt all work on the
tribal constitution. After a little legal
research. 1 discovered an amazing
fact' LROA has no legal authority to
stop the constitutional assembly from
dun))! anything It is kinds like LRDA
telling CPAL not to raise the light bill
It was a meaningless vote. A waste or
time, effort and energy.
In an effort to try to understand
why LRDA had taken its stand. I tried
to contact the chairman of the board as
well as the executive director Neither
would return my calls. They did talk
to a reporter from the "Fayetteville
Times The question in my mind at
'his point is why would an Indian
Jrganisanon in an Indian tow n retii.se
< talk lo the Indian newspaper' \k li\
voukl LRDa put Indian business in
Kayettev tile 'With the vote for fedeiai
recognition coming up. and the local
senator's uncommittedness. wh\
pro vide the him a reason to vole agtunsi
r Why say this is a Lumbee puuih
matter, then tell everyone outside the
family''
Lad night. I <hd Anally receive ?
call fromaropLRDAofficial He said
ha was ack and tired of whai was

i?'!T!d the "reason tbc LKDA board
dad gotten into such a lather was
because the constitutional assembly
had started talking about having a
vote on the tribal constitution at the
anal homecoming. July 1994! It seems
the LRD A board's intent isio keep the
onstitutioa from being [xesented to
the people I thanked turn far the
intormanon and asked that he stand
up for what is right and stand far the
people at the next board meeting. He
just hung up
W e aD know *hat the LRD A board
is try my to do It is a shame we have
to fight among ourselves when there
are so many other issues we should
stand together on. Like the upcoming
election There are many fine Indian
