Daly criticizes state auditor for wrongdoings in office
BY ERICA BESHEARS

RALEIGH A representative for
Jack Daly, Republican candidate for state
auditor and UNC law student, released a
critical “audit” report of current Auditor
Ralph Campbell on Monday morning.
Nate Pendley delivered the review on
the steps of the legislative office building,
directly in front of the auditor’s office.
Campbell could not respond to the
charges because he is in Chicago this
week for the Democratic National Con

University prepares
upgrades to e-mail
BYSHENGLEE
STAFF WRITER
Increased demand for e-mail has com
pelled the University to expand its old
ISIS system by installing new hardware
and making several software changes.
Academic Technology and Networks,
formerly the Office oflnformation Tech
nology, first offered free e-mail to the
UNC campus in September 1994. Only
about 6,000 people used the system.
Since that time, the number of e-mail
users has exploded to more than 27,000.
Consequently, many users experience
difficulty logging in to their accounts.
According to a posting on ATN’s web
site, the new system will offer more con
current logins and increased security,
among other improvements.
Jimßamett, manager ofthe Technical
Assistant Center for AIN, saidhe thought
the new ISIS system performed better
than the old system.
“We know that performancewise, it’s
a lot more powerful than the old system, ’’
Barnett said.
The new system was installed into the
campus computer system Aug. 7.
Barnett said less than half of e-mail
users had moved to the new system.
Somestudentswhohadnotyetmoved
to the new system said they felt skeptical
about its ability to perform.
Sophomore Ryan Norwood of
Monroeville, Pa., said he thought the
new system sounded like an improve
ment, but he questioned the University’s
ability to keep the system working prop
erly. “It sounds better than last year’s,
but the University will probably mess it
up like it did with last year’s system,”
Norwood said.
Charlotte Froehlich, a junior from
Winter Park, Fla., said she had heard
some positive news ofthe system, but she
did not trust the new system.
‘Tve heard it’s a lot faster, which I can
certainly appreciate, but I’m avoiding
(switching from the old ISIS to the new
ISIS) because I just don’t trust the fact
that all my files will be moved, ” she said.

The audit alleged that Campbell
wrecked his state vehicle on May 24,
1995 and was charged with driving while
impaired. The report also stated that
Campbell drove over 10,000 miles in his
state car without specifying them on his
travel log. Lastly, the report stated that
employees in the state auditor’s office
made long-distance personal calls at state
expense.
Daly, who was ill Monday morning
arrived at the legislative office building
while his staffers were packing up. He
pointed out that his “audit” showed how
efficiently he would audit state agencies

Chris Colomb, a computer consultant
at ATN, said he thought flaws were un
avoidable. “There’s almost always a few
teething problems until you have people
on it and then you equally have to make
adjustments,” Colomb said.
Whether users plan to voluntarily
move from the old system to the new
system or not, ATN has already estab
lished Oct. 16 as the date to obliterate the
old ISIS system.
if elected. “Everything we have acquired
is public information,” Daly said. “As an
outsider, without the benefit of 200 em
ployees, I have been able to identity waste,
fraud and abuse.”
He said the charges in the “audit”
carry weight because they were allegedly
committed by the state auditor, the man
in charge of investigating other agencies
for similar violations.
Both Daly and Pendley mentioned
Rufus Edmiston, who resigned as secre
tary of state last spring after an audit
reported that he misused state transpor
tation and ran an inefficient office.
Council outlines process to fill seat
■ The mayor officially
declared the vacant seat
open to applicants.
BY MARY-KATHRYN' CRAFT
STAFF WRITER
The Chapel Hill Town Council began
to tackle the heavy workload ofthe com
ing year Monday night.
One of their main priorities was to
alleviate this workload by beginning the
process of filling the vacant seat left open
by the death of council member Barbara
Booth-Powell.
Booth-Powell died July 7 after a
lengthy battle with cancer.
Mayor Rosemary Waldorf formally
announced the vacancy and made the
seat available to all interested applicants.
All interested residents must send a letter
to the town by Sept. 16 stating their
interest and qualifications, she said.
Hunt advisor: ‘politicas’ unite, bring change
BY AMY CAPPIELLO
ASSISTANT CITY EDITOR
Unless women participate more in the
political process, womens’ issues might
be left by the wayside in the lead up to the
November elections, said a leading advi
sor for Gov. Jim Hunt Monday night.
“One-half million women in North
Carolina are not registered to vote,” said
Jane Patterson, Hunt’s chief advisor for
policy, budget and technology. “If they
were registered, one can’t help but be
lieve they would support issues pertinent
to women.”
Patterson spoke before the Orange
County Commission for Women 76 years
after the ratification of the 19th Amend
ment gave women the right to vote. Past
generations of women made tremendous
breakthroughs in the political arena, but
there was still much work to be done, she
said.
“Look at local government,” Patterson
said. “None of us have a good record of
See SPEECH, Pace 9
“It is the height of hypocrisy,” Daly
said. “In order for a state auditor to be
efficient, he must have credibility. He
can’t say, ‘Do as I say, not as I do.’’’
Pendley made Campbell’s accident the
focus of his criticism. Pendley said
Campbell ran into a car that was turning
left across his lane because he was driv
ing too quickly. The investigating officer
smelled alcohol on Campbell’s breath
and gave him sobriety tests, he said.
Daly said Campbell was charged with
driving while impaired, but was not pros
ecuted because his blood alcohol level
was not above the legal limit of .08.
NCCU female officer
alleges discrimination
BY JEANNE FUGATE
EDITOR
Almost a decade ago, one UNC-
Chapel Hill female police officer decided
to fight alleged discrimination on the job
for herself and for future female officers.
Today, an officer at N.C. Central Uni
versity is throwing some more punches.
“Law enforcement has been a man’s
territory for many, manyyears,” said the
plaintiff, Renee Lynch, a 23-year veteran
of the department. “It seems like there’s
a place for us there, but they don’t really
want us to be high ranking,” she said.
Lynch filed a personnel grievance al
leging gender discrimination earlier this
year.
Her hearing began Monday before the
same judge, Dolores Nesnow, who sat
on the earlier case of UNC-CH’s female
police officer, Keith Edwards.
Lynch said Edwards’ case was an in
spiration to her and to others.
“(My suit) is kind of following in her
steps,” she said. “Keith is a pioneer.”
Lynch’s attorney, Mark Dorosin, said
The council will review applications,
listen to candidates’ presentations and
possibly make nominations at their Sept.
25 meeting. An additional meeting will
be held if an appointment is not made
then.
In other business, the council debated
who should represent the town to the
University in the ongoing development
discussions of the Horace Williams and
Mason Farms properties.
The council appointed eight people to
serve on a work group with the Univer
sity.
Alan Reimer and Jim Ward were ap
pointed to represent the town’s planning
panel, William Whitehead and Dan
Coleman were appointed to represent
the neighborhoods and Diane Bloom and
Mary Reeb were appointed from the
town’s planning board.
Council members Joe Capowski and
Richard Franck will represent the coun
cil in the work group.

Neither Pendley nor Daly could remem
ber Campbell’s level at the time of the
accident. Campbell’s executive assistant,
Bob Slade, said Campbell’s blood alco
hol level had been .03.
Pendley said it didn’t matter that
Campbell was not legally drunk because
it was wrong for him to climb into a state
car after drinking anything or for any
thing but state business.
The Daly campaign called for
Campbell’s immediate resignation as a
result of the accident. Gov. Jim Hunt

they were trying to break ground with
NCCU.
“What we’re seeking is for the univer
sity to own up to the fact that they took a
less qualified male candidate over a more
qualified female candidate,” Dorosin
said.
NCCU Chancellor Julius Chambers
said NCCU, a historically black univer
sity, worked against such problems.
“We have tried to operate a program
free of race and gender discrimination
and will continue to do so,” he said.
Lynch, who was one of the first female
officers to work for a state university,
served for eight months as interim police
chief in 1992, during which time she
applied for the permanent position.
After a man was hired for the position,
Ljmch filed a lawsuit. A judge later dis
missed it for lack of evidence.
The chief resigned a few years later.
Lynch again applied for the position in
November 1995. “In early December the

process with the University, the council
authorized the formation of this work
group in July.
The town and the University are cur
rently working together to formulate new
zoning proposals for both of the Univer
sity-owned properties.
Town Manager Cal Horton said the
primary purpose of the work group was
to create new development guidelines for
the properties which would be agreeable
to both the University and the town. The
final report from the work group will be
presented to the council on March 15, he
said.
The resolution passed in July in
structed the work group to ensure that
development plans remain consistent
with town goals and policies and protect
interests of the University.
“The work of this group is exceed
ingly important,” council member Julie
Andresen said.
“That is why we are taking so much
time with it.”
