unmatched, but that is going to
come at a cost,” said Dean Bresciani,
committee member and interim
vice chancellor for student affairs.
Campus leaders were barraged
by requests to elevate student fees
this week, prompting them to probe
the legitimacy of such hikes. “It’s a
dangerous precedent to replace
state funding with student fees,
which is where the extensive review
process comes in,” Bresciani said.
While part of the increase is the
result of annual inflationary fac
tors, Tepper stressed that students
would not just be paying more to

The program, with in-patient,
out-patient and day-patient facets,
will be a partner for Counseling and
Psychological Services in the fight
against eating disorders on campus.
“Given the large number of stu
dents that we see each semester,
we do not have sufficient clinical
staff to provide ongoing eating dis
orders treatment,” said Allen
Hamrick, CAPS associate director.
Some students said the program
is an important addition to campus.

rather would be getting more bang
for their buck through “service ori
ented” additions.
The Counseling and
Psychological Service will be one of
the foremost beneficiaries, paid for
in part by the sl6 increase in the
student health fee.
“It’s really anew day for student
mental health,” said John Edgerly,
director of CAPS.
The new funds will decrease the
two to three week wait students
currently face when making an
appointment and will provide
CAPS with more flexibility to hire
additional staff during peak times.
“The wait times are such that it
age such disorders,” said Sarah
Prodan, a junior biology major.
Colleen Carbott, a junior com
munication studies major, said stu
dents with eating disorders might
not realize they need to seek help.
But junior Sarah Jafari-Namin,
a psychology’ major, said the pro
gram’s campus location might
attract more patients. “It will make
it easier for young people, male or
female, to go and seek help.”
During an interview’, McLamb
said the program's respectful,
client-centered energy will allow
patients to overcome any social
stigma. “The shame and the quiet
and the embarrassment is the dis
ease. It’s not w’ho they are,” she said.
“Getting help is the first step to
recovery, and that is reclaiming
your life.”

is not good for (students) in not
getting adequate treatment, but it
is also affecting their lives and daily
activities,” said Dan Herman, com
mittee member and Graduate and
Professional Student Federation
president.
A sl9 increase in the technology
fee was more contentious. Student
leaders said they were careful to
evaluate how quickly improve
ments, such as an online calendar,
could be integrated into campus life.
The Steltor Calendar would
function as an online calendar
through which students could
download their class schedules and

Melinda Manning said the ROTC
program is important for the many
students who use the scholarships
to fund their education. But she
said she wishes the military would

Even with isolated incidents
such as the ROTC expulsion, lead
ers are positive about the
GLBTSA’s influence on campus,
and they are working to raise
awareness of what they deem to be
problematic issues.
“On the whole, more student

Part of Leamon’s election plat

Oberlin, the assistant vice chancel
lor for information technology.
The technology fee also will be
used to decrease walk-in assistance
waiting times and to launch a pro
gram to enable students to com
municate online with tech support.
If the new student fees receive
final approval, fees will reach
$1,234.12 for undergraduates an
amount far lower than that at other
system universities. UNC-Chapel
Hill’s 2003-04 student fees ranked
as the fifth least expensive out of
the 16 system schools.

The GLBTSA has made plans to
work with organizations such as the
Black Student Movement, Campus
Y and Young Democrats this year.
Zach Howell, a sophomore from
Charlotte who is a member of
GLBTSA, said he never experi
enced homophobia until he came
to UNC. The worst discrimination
he has faced is derogatory com
ments yelled from passing cars and
left on answering machines.
Despite room for improvement,
Hoppe said, UNC’s acceptance of
the LGBT community is “fantastic
in comparison” to other schools.

involved,” senior Stephanie
Crowder said. “I could have volun
teered my opinion.”
Crowder said she would have
preferred the selection of a more
high-profile speaker.
“I guess I do feel a little
betrayed,” Crowder said when
comparing Chambers to Cosby.
“They could get more of a
national figure since this is such a
well-known school, but I’m not
opposed to having someone from
UNC speak,” she said.
Leamon said the committee
faced little opposition when select
ing Chambers for their recommen
dation. He said Chambers' North
Carolina connection makes him
the best choice for a
Commencement speaker.
UNC-CH STUDENT FEES CONTINUE TO INCREASE
Student fees have increased by 50 percent since 1995. The increase
does not include debt service, transit or student information
registration fees, because they were not computed in the past.

Care Services fees were withdrawn
from consideration before
Thursday’s meeting.
Prior to Thursday, the commit
tee had approved other student fee
increases on four separate occa
sions. In September, the commit
tee recommended increases in the
athletic fee, student debt services
fee, UNC ONE Card fee, student
information system registration
fee, student transit fee and the stu
dent dining debt service fee, in
addition to others.
“This is a man of stature —very
acclaimed, very distinguished,” he
said. “The thing about Julius
Chambers is he is one of our own.
He’s a testament to what this state
can produce. We’re being repre
sented by one of our best.”
Leamon defended the commit
tee’s decision despite some nega
tive reactions from the senior class.
“I’m more than satisfied,” he
said. “I realize there’ll be nay-say
ers, there will always be nay-sayers.
Some people were opposed to hav
ing Bill Cosby as a speaker.”
Allison Lewis, senior class sec
retary, said many of the student
marshals were excited about the
selection and eager to get the sen
ior class equally enthusiastic about
Chambers.

At a Sept. 29 meeting, increases
were recommended for the cam
pus recreation fee and Carolina
Union operating expense fee,
among others.
On Monday the committee
approved the renewable energy fee
and increases to the health servic

If the increases are approved by
Moeser, they will go before the
UNC Board of Trustees and then
the UNC-system Board of
Governors for final approval.
