of-staters saw a 51.250 increase.
But this lack of in-state increase
is an exception.
Tuition and fees for in-state stu
dents at UNC has increased 136
percent during the past 10 years.
Although the University has
raised vast sums of money to
extend need-based aid to students,
merit-based scholarships are more
difficult to come by. Raynor said.
According to a University
mandate, each year 35 percent of
tuition increases go to need-based
aid. In contrast, of the S2lB million
in aid dispersed this year, 7 percent
went to merit-based aid, includ
ing the prestigious Robertson and
Morehead-Cain scholarships.
Shirley Ort. associate provost
and director of scholarships and
student aid. said that 70 percent of
entering freshmen apply for need
based aid and that only about 34
percent receive it.
“We don't want to discount the
fact that for those families who just
miss federal aid. We recognize that
it’s a struggle." Ort said.
Raynor said she that wants to
reach out to the middle class but
that even these cannot encompass
all students' needs.
“We can’t keep Covenant true to
what it is by expanding the medi
an income level for qualification,"
Raynor said.
Instead, she said she wants to
increase the coverage of the pro-

gram to include more students.
Students with family incomes of
200 percent of the federal poverty
level qualify for the program, which
allows them to graduate debt-free.
Those families who do not quali
fy for federal aid typically apply for
private or institutional grants and
generally take out more loans.
While they might have more loams.
Ort said, students usually don’t drop
out of UNC because of financial con
cerns from increased tuition.
“The fundamental injustice is of
selling this grand idea of Carolina
and then failing to meet them with
the resources to do it’ Raynor said.
But tuition increases also
are necessary to maintain the
University's high educational stan
dard, trustee Paul Fulton said.
“A university with less quality at
a cheaper price doesn’t mean any
thing to anybody." Fulton said.
A significant portion of tuition
increases often fund faculty salaries
as peers have set the bar higher.
Fulton added that trustees have
been trying to increase predictabil
ity in their decisions.
Raynor also stressed the impor
tance of being able to see where
student tuition dollars are spent.
“1 really believe in a transparent
tuition process,’ she said.
“We need to stop approaching
these debates as if they’re only going
to happen this year because they
happen every year."

“We re very pleased with the pool
of applicants that we have," he said.
“We have no concern about coming

June 30. The committee aims for the
next chancellor to be in place July 1.

CELEBRATION
FROM PAGE 1
Chapel Hill police, Gunter said.
The department did an evalua
tion of its coverage of the festivities
after the 2005 win, Gunter said.
This year it plans to temporarily
light up dark areas.
When crowds head downtown
for Halloween, police have the
opportunity to set up traffic barri
cades beforehand. But they won't
this time because of the “spontane
ity of the celebration," Gunter said.
They will discourage people
from carrying alcohol by providing
disposal barrels, he said.
The police will also try to elimi
nate bonfires.
“It is a very intense situation for
police," Gunter said.
Police have asked businesses to
remove all signs and awnings that
could be destroyed by fans. Stores
were asked to restrict selling Carolina
Blue paint until after the games.
“We probably won't sell it," said
Roy Brown, owner of Browns Paint
and Hardware. “We will watch who
well sell it to."
Just as they increase their sup
plies of food and alcohol, restau
rants and bars will increase staff to
deal with the rush.
Calls for reservations for Top
of the Hill began the minute the
game against Louisville ended,
floor manager Chris Sanders said.
But Top of the Hill is not accepting
reservations until game day.
“As soon as we open we are going
to allow people to pick out two seats
they want to watch the game from,"
Sanders said. “That's the system we
have had to resort to."
To prepare for the “absolute
onslaught of people" Top of the
Hill expects, Sanders said he and
the other managers have decided to
spend the weekend there.

pared for the “world of mayhem" that

“We definitely beef up in our

More food, experienced staff
and security are part of Spanky’s
Restaurant and Bar’s plans for
Saturday night, head manager
Gavin Toth said.
Toth said that he remembers
championship game night in 2005
and that Spanky’s was packed.
“It was more of a massive influx
of people, with people rotating in
and out of the restaurant pretty
quickly," Toth said.
Even though a win for
the Heels means more
work for police, Capt. Chris
Blue said many will support the

“A large number of our officers
are UNC graduates, so I suspect we
will have some Tar Heels out there
in uniform that night," Blue said.

enough.

way to guard ’em all," he said. “You

So where the matchup ultimate

“They can just go get easy points."

teams couldn't remains to be seen
Saturday. At the least they both
have stacked, deep rosters to throw

And after two seasons of
