J^obbins, Council Candidate
by vicki hinson
, Dr. John Robbins of the UNCC
.^Ity has entered the Charlotte
'ty Council race.
1 Robbins, associate professor of
story^ feels that his election to
Council would help set the
udard for a broader based city
^^''^rnment. He also hopes to
pal^.^urage young people,
’’’^olarly college students, to
through the system for
^tive change.
"hen asked if he felt that his
being a member of the City
Council would infringe upon his
classroom time, he commented
that it would take about the same
amount of his time as working on
a research project.
“Some professors have spent
much time working on the
Charter Commission”, said
Robbins. He cited Dr. Hugli
McEniry as an example.
Dr. Robbins has been active for
several years in community
political affairs including the
Charlotte Peace Coalition.

A new controversial book has
recently been published dealing
with new medical discoveries
which have given man the
opportunity for increased control
over life and death. Who Shall
Live? will be one topic of
discussion at the Population
Workshop to be held at UNCC
April 21-23.
The workshop, a federally
funded program, is an example of
Earth Week activities being
conducted across the nation this
week.
Elizabeth Corkey, a member of
the study group on Who Shall
Live? and Julia Abrahamson,
editor of the book, will be
discussing the book’s ideas and
the population problem in general
in the Parquet Room.
This group supports the repeal
of state laws blocking abortion
and dissemination of
contraceptive information and
materials. “We believe that the
population crisis is so threatening
to the equality of human life that
for the sake of the individual, the
family and society we must bring
population and resources into
balance by learning to control our
fertility.”
The authors also deal with the
prolongation of life in the dying,
advocating that therapy be
stopped after brain death has
transpired.
Other speakers for the
three-days conference include
Arthur Jones, Consultant on
Population Policy, Carolina
Population Center, Robbin
Elliott, of Planned Parenthood
World Population, and Noel-David
Burleson, Population Education
Consultant for UNESCO.
Dr. Larry Lance, Assistant
Professor of Sociology, and Dr.
Loy Witherspoon, Chairman and
Associate Professor of the
Department of Philosophy and
Religion are co-chairmen for the
project.
Some twenty population
control advocates will be covering
all phases of their movement such
as the history of abortion,
contraception, and sterilization,
abortion and abortion laws,
planned parenthood and sex
education, and man’s control over
death.

Chancellor
Accepts A
Leave Grant
by Charlie peek
Chancellor D. W. Colvard has
been invited to take a short-term
leave grant provided by the
Danforth Foundation. Colvard has
decided to accept the invitation;
however, he has no definite plans
as to when he will begin his leave.
The Chancellor is one of 20
college and university
administrators invited to receive
one of the $5,000 grants, which
provide opportunities to “enlarge
perspectives of current and future
educational issues and to renew
inner resources for continued
leadership in higher education.”
Colvard intends to use the
grant to read and research recent
developments in his specialty
fields of economics and
geography. He would prefer to do
this work at some institution
which has a large library of
journals. ^
He adds, also, that he has not
had such an opportunity for
release from University problems
“in recent memory.”
The grant enables each
recipient to take a leave from his
institution of two to four months
in length. Selection for the
program is by invitation rather
than application.
When Colvard does decide to
use his grant. Dr. Hugh McEniry,
Vice-Chancellor for Academic
Affairs, will perform his duties
temporarily.
President Albert N. Whiting of
North Carolina Central University
was the only other North Carolina
administrator invited to
participate in the program.
