4 Friday, February 22, 2002 INSTALLMENTS From Page 1 merits could start as early as June 1 for students choosing the 12-month plan. Both proposed plans still would allow students to continue paying in one lump sum at the beginning of each semester. Dennis Press, a UNC-CH controller, said the option would be beneficial to students. “It is an effort to continually look at the services we provide and improve them,” Press said. He said the University would con tract with a private company, which would charge students an additional S4O to $55, to administer the service. George Worsley, N.C. State vice chancellor for finance and business, said the campus is considering the change because of student and parent demands. “This is something both students and parents have asked for,” he said. “Instead of one lump sum, students can spread it out over time." The N.C. State Board of Trustees could approve the plan at its meeting today. Worsley said the economic slowdown has also been an impetus to create the new payment options. “With the econo my the way it is, we need to be sensitive to families in North Carolina,” he said.

Unlike the proposed tuition increase, the pay change plan is receiving mostly positive reviews from UNC-CH students. Emily Ransom, a UNC-CH fresh man from Rolesville, said she thinks the plan could benefit students, particular ly those who receive financial aid. “I know a lot of people who have to hold out for financial aid money,” Ransom said. “This would give them a chance to not be stressed at the begin ning of the semester with money.” But Luke Selden, a UNC-CH sopho more from Virginia Beach, Va., said he is skeptical of the plan. He wondered how the University would react to stu dents who did not keep up with all of their payments. “It would be a headache to deal with," Selden said. “What would they do if people failed to pay?” Selden said he also disapproves of the use of private companies to administer the plan. “It’s basically letting private companies give out loans."

Young’s effectiveness on tuition is not compro mised. “If you’re a student advocate, you’re always a student advocate.” Committee Restructuring On Monday, Young met with Nancy Suttenfield, vice chancellor for finance and administration, to suggest that TPAC be totally restructured next fall. But Faculty Council Chairwoman Sue Estroff said she is skeptical that TPAC will be altered, regardless of Young’s efforts in the coming months. She said because TPAC is solely an advisory committee, Moeser will make the final call on all parking-related issues - therefore, even if Young’s sug gestions are adopted, they will not change any transportation or parking related decisions. Another committee Young wants to leave a lasting impression on before stepping down is the Commencement speaker selection committee. Despite some concern about the bal ance of student and faculty voice on the committee, Estroff said it does not need to be restructured. But there will be some changes to make the process more predictable and equitable, Estroff said. Estroff said she does not think Dawn's election will stop administrators from listening to Young’s recommenda tions. “People respect (Young) as a per son and not just because of his office.” Senior Class President Ben Singer also said he is not concerned about Young’s leadership in the coming months as they work together to restruc ture the Commencement committee. “I don’t think it has anything to do with titles,” Singer said. “I think it has to do with working toward a cause.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.

Carolina Athletic Association President-elect Kris Willett included the installation of aJumboTron at Kenan Stadium in her platform. Willett said she is thrilled that her goal is coming to fruition, saying research done before her campaign proved it was a possibility.

But he said Baddour’s deci sion to pursue the matter was his own. Kirschner said factors under consid eration include where the screen would be located and the possibility of pur chasing two screens. Officials hope to complete the project before UNC opens its 2002 football season Aug. 31. Plans to install a screen at Kenan Stadium follow the installation of one last fall at Boshamer Stadium, the home of UNC’s baseball team. Willett said the screen will make foot ball games more fun. “It will definitely add to the Tar Heel fan experience.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.
