Although UNC-CH tries to make transfer students feel at home through orientation programs and social events, Bell and Helton both expressed a wish for more outreach to transfer students in terms of housing. Upon entering the University, all transfer students are forced to find housing on their own. They often resort to living together in off-campus apartments. Bell asked to be put on a waitlist for on-campus housing, and she managed to get housing on North Campus because other students canceled their housing contracts. Lee’s aspirations for the group this year include a Caribbean-themed carni val in Polk Place. The group also hopes to hold fund raisers to benefit schools in the Caribbean. Lee encouraged students who are interested in the organization to attend a meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the base ment of Parker Residence Hall.

She stressed that the board has to be careful about comparing applicants to Bridges. “He certainly had his own style,” she said. “We’re not looking for a clone of Doctor Bridges.” Thompson said designating anew C-START From Page 3 course about renewable energy sources since he heard about the program. He said he hopes to show that the energy sources currently in use are inferior to renewable alternatives. Varner said he is glad the committee selected his course because it showed its members are interested in the issue. “It was very nice to see that.” He said he will dedicate a lot of time to the project to ensure that his students understand both sides of the issue but also can grasp his stance. “This is my baby,” he said.

While the search is at the top of the board’s list of goals for the year, she also oudined other goals discussed at the retreat that the board and its new superintendent will work toward fulfilling.

Members will also focus on renovat ing Hillsborough Elementary School, creating anew alternative school and increasing the participation of minority students in upper-level classes.

Junior Nathan Cherry, who is serving as student coordinator this year, said he will work this year both on finding a source of permanent funding for the future and on increasing publicity for the pro gram. “Everyone I know that’s dealt with the program has loyed it,” Cherry said. “But most people don’t know what it is.” Leloudis said the performance of for mer student teachers has shown the value of C-START. “The students who have taught the last couple of years have been exceptional.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.

Chris Schafer, a junior advertising major, said he thinks the online services could work well as long as books are ordered before the beginning of the semester. “If you ordered them online now they might not arrive for a week because of shipping time," he said. Grayson Dill, a sophomore history major, bought some of his books at Student Stores and some at Ram Book. “The student bookstore is essentially a geographical monopoly where they can charge whatever they want,” he said. “I like the fact that Ram and the Internet services provide alternative sources for students.” The University Editor can be reached at udesk@unc.edu.
