Student Says Racial Discrimination Exists At UNCC
special to ine rost -,
The budget for the Children
of the Sun, the black gospel
choir of UNCC, has been plac
ed before Student Legislature
for the third time. Each time,
the budget has been rejected
with no real valid explana
tions. This makes us, the
members of the Children of
the Sun, wonder if Racial
Discrimination exists at
UNCC.
The choir's original budget
was approximately $4,600. Ths
covered the director’s salary,
choir robes, transportation ex
penses, supplies, publicity,
concert performances, pos
tage, historians, and gas. Af
ter a series of rejections by the
legislature, the final budget
amounted to approximately
$2,800. This cut required the
Children of the Sun to curtail
much that was essential to its
program: however, the latter
budget was not approved.
These cuts did not come
without reason. The director s
salary, which was $1,000, was
allegedly too much; our bud
jet was allegedly not in by the
May lat deadline; there is
already a functional choir on
campus; the student legisla
ture alleged that the Children
of the Sun did nothing to rasie
funds until they thought that
their budget was going to be
refused. The Student Legisla
ture’s strongest argument was
that they didn’t have enough
money. Ves, there are rea
sons, but we question the
validity of these reasons.
Let's examine them one at a
time. Although the legislature
claims that the director's sa
lary was too high, most choir
directors are faculty mem
bers who command much lar
ger funds. Our director is a
very talented pianist who has
had much experience as a
choir director. Musicians of
his quality are usually paid
much more than we asked,
which means that he is mak
ing a sacrifice in working with
our choir.
Our budget was allegedly
not in by the May 1st deadline.
Legislature says this, but the
truth is that legislature has no
record of when it, or any of the
other budgets, were turned in.
We think this says something
about the efficiency of the
legislature. And during the
hearing on our budget, al
though we stated that the
budget was submitted on time,
legislature simply ignored
these statements, which seem
ingly constituted bias on the
part of the student legislature.
Legislature says that there
is already a functional choir
on campus. That’s all fine and
good, but we are a separate
choir serving a need and
function distinct from any
other musical group on cam
pus. We feel that we should be
supported in our endeavors.
We are a chartered body on
campus, and no matter where
we go to sing, we go as the
uncc Children of the Sun. We
are not working only for our
selves; we also represent
UNCC. We are enhancing its
popularity, including the one’s
who are cutting our budget.
Student Legislature alleged
that the Children of the Sun
did nothing to raise funds until
it was apparent that the bud
get would fail but there were
plans prepared even before
the budget was submitted.
Fund raising programs, such
as the Miss Black Gospel
Choir Contest, dances, car
washes, and other activities
were planned and scheduled
for this semester. So we have
been trying to do for our
selves, but we do need help.
Since we represent a dimen
sion of UNCC and exist as a
chartered body on campus, we
should be helped by our legis
lature. Is it fair to be cruel to
those who serve you? Besides,
funding chartered bodies on
campus is one of the functions
of thp lpffislatnrp
Lastly, the legislature says
that they just don’t have e
nough money. According to
our sources, we had our bud
get in by the May 1st deadline
Legislature had plenty of mo
ney then. They looked at our
budget, without even consider
ing where these expenses
were going, and said that the
sum was too much. We sub
mitted an outline which went
virtually unnoticed. The legis
lature didn't even look at the
validity of our needs. They
just looked at the sum total
and said, "SORRY, NO
DEAL.’’ A third grader could
do that. A third grader could
make a‘ decision with no re
gard to-..the substantial evi
dence. Student Legislature is
supposed to be made up of
college students. So whv could
they not act in a manner
appropriate to college stu
dents.
As you can see, there is
:onsiderable weakness in
knir ....... t--;-».__
budget and since these given
reasons don't hold up, we feel
that there maybe a deeper
hidden reason behind the bud
get refusal. There are only two
black school funded organiza
tions at UNCC. Every year, at
least one of them has to go
through the Student Legisla
ture. Is this just coincidential
or are there ulterior motives?
We think there are; so much
that we ask. ‘Does Racial
Discrimination Exist at
UNCC?" _
WHY?
Why do you persecute us
We w^jo have stood by you
Why do you try to kill us
Through reasons that are not
true
Aren't we all your children,
Are double standards fair?
We go to many cities
^Carrying your name
But still you turn against us
Tell me what's your game
If you will not stand by us.
Don’t tell us your lies!
Why be cruel to the ones who
