incorporate additional financial aid pro
visions into the plan.
Broad’s proposal would also include
a $36.8 million need-based financial aid
request. But some students have voiced
concern that the legislature might pass
the tuition increase without allocating
money to the financial aid package.
Coalition members have also stressed
that any tuition boost must be a one-time
increase coupled with state funding.

the bill for capital improvements was a
mistake.
“It has never been in the history of
the state to tax students for capital
needs," said freshman Sandi Chapman.
Osterweil said that although it might
be difficult to mobilize a large number
of students at the meeting, the coalition
would also launch a letter campaign this
week to gamer support. “I think the con
cern is still there.”

VERDICT

UNC’s USSA membership, was passed
in December with a 12-10 vote.
Citing Title 11, Section IV, Article
166 of the Student Code, Kleinschmidt
said it was his duty as speaker to remove
the referendum because it was not
passed with a two-thirds majority.
But the four plaintiffs said Title I,
Section VI, Article I justified keeping
the referendum under the constitution’s
claim that only a simple majority was
needed to raise student fees.
Chiefjustice Fid Page said there was
no discrepancy between the code and
the constitution as the plaintiffs claimed.

“We have to continue with the same
lobbying efforts,” Martin said. “We
would like to take things more grass
roots and mobilize students.”
A change that all six presidential can
didates said they hoped to accomplish
was bringing back the equivalency pro
gram.
The program, which was replaced
four years ago by the current system,
allowed students to use an amount
equivalent to the cost of an upstairs
Lenoir Dining Hall meal ala carte.
Students are now limited to using
their meal plans strictly in upstairs
Lenoir and are required to pay sepa
rately for food at individual venues
downstairs.
Candidate Josh Ray said bringing
back the equivalency plan would
assigning two officers to work overtime
shifts in heavily traveled campus areas.
The University also formed a pedes-,
trian safety committee to address more
effective ways to protect the University
community.
The committee will meet for the sec
ond time Feb. 16 to discuss requests for
new crosswalks, Poarch said. A sub
title 11, Section IV, Article 166 is
hereby constitutional and is not in con
tradiction with Title I, Section VI,
Article 1,” read the court’s statement.
Page said Kleinschmidt performed
the right action in light of Congress’
oversight in December.
“The defendant’s action causing the
removal of the referendum from the
general election ballot was proper and
consistent with his duties as Speaker of
Student Congress.”
But Kleinschmidt said he feared the
repercussions of the court’s verdict
despite his victory. “The outcome itself I
could see being a possibility, but I think
the logic is wrong, and it could be dan
gerous."
Kleinschmidt and Barbour said they
holding classes on a holiday, the com
mittee recommended either April 8 or
April 9 as the alternate day.
Some committee members expressed
concern about weekend classes interfer
ing with previously made plans.
But Richardson said attendance poli
encourage more students to buy meal
plans and could eventually lower food
costs in Lenoir.
“A major change needed with CDS is
the equivalency program,” Ray said.
“That’s a huge issue to me.”
In addition to the equivalency pro
gram, Ray said he had a long list of
changes he would like to see made to
campus dining.
Lowering the price of meals for stu
dents without meal plans, adding anoth
er line to get to upstairs Lenoir, bringing
at least one other franchise like Taco
Bell to campus and extending late night
hours are some things Ray said he
hoped to accomplish.
Ray said he also wanted to make sure
CDS employees were treated with
respect.
“It’s important to treat the workers at
Chase and Lenoir like we treat our pro
fessors,” Ray said. “You can’t tell some
one how to act, but we can have a
Worker Appreciation Day every
month.”
Candidate Preston Smith said he did
not have many concerns with campus
dining, but there were still features he
wanted to add.
“I think it would be nice to have pit

feared the decision could inflate the
power of Congress.

is Congress’ power to be expanded by
this decision, and I trust (Congress will!
work to fix all that,” Barbour said.
Barbour and plaintiff Sandi Chapman
said they would circulate petitions to get
the referendum on the ballot.
The code requires signatures from 10
percent of the student body before the
referendum will be approved.
“We feel it’s really important that stu
dents have the opportunity to vote on
this,” Barbour said. “We’re going to
work to make sure it stays on the ballot.”

pus," he said, suggesting a possible site
closer to McCorkle Place. “I would also
like to help out with Meals on Wheels to
make sure they can get food from
CDS.”
Smith said he would like to give the
students more bargaining power with
CDS officials by becoming more finan
dally independent.
He said that if officials would not
lower meal costs, a financially indepen
dent student body could have the option
of starting their own dining service.
In addition to talking with workers in
Chase Hall about opening the dining
hall for more hours, candidate Erica
Smiley said she hoped to add more food
stores in which expense plans could be
used.
Smiley said she wanted to make sure
students and faculty had a say in corpo
ration contracts, such as UNC’s dining
services contract.
“We need a committee to make sure
we look over contracts with corpora
tions because students and faculty will
have different impacts.”
