The campus was dissolved in June. “I can think of no justifiable reason whatsoever why the former leadership at NCCU would com pletely fail to abide by the appropri ate approval process,” Bowles said. He said general administration examined more than 400 UNC system programs and found nothing comparable to the NCCU situation. He also said administrators would have to determine a fair solution regarding the still-undetermined degree status of the program’s 125 students, including 25 who gradu ated and 38 who were still enrolled when the campus was dissolved. Future plans for the system Gage asked board members not to let the controversies of the day distract them from their mission.

Gage said the system has incurred too many audits, citing discrepancies in financial aid and general accounting reports. The board is partnering with Ernst & Young, a financial con sulting firm, to retool its financial system. The goal is to standardize payroll, general accounting, finan cial aid and procurement functions within three years. Bowles said many of the finance functions should operate out of a centralized service center. “I can’t live with this lack of con trol,” he said.

It’s beautiful and appealing,” Miyares said. “He brings anew life to the everyday.” Allin said he was moved the first time he heard Collins’ poetry. “It made me feel kind of in awe of the small things in life,” he said.

From Page Three DOLE FROM PAGE 3 According to the 2008 Power Rankings survey, Elizabeth Dole ranks as the 93rd most effective senator, a fact the Hagan campaign has capitalized on in ads. Bob Dole dismissed the rank ing, pointing to his wife’s consis tent recognition as one of the most powerful women in Congress and praising her dedication to the job. “She brings the work home with her, which I would never do,” he said, laughing. Bob Dole said the recent buzz surrounding Republican vice presi dential candidate Sarah Palin has excited the party’s base. Hillsborough resident John Gaither said the attention Palin brings to the Republican party could help Dole with votes. “It could open up the race,” he said. Kathy Brodie, who serves on the Orange County Republican Party’s executive committee, said hosting Bob Dole was a big honor for such a small town. “It puts us on the map,” she said. Dole’s presence excited many of Hillsborough’s residents. When he walked into the Saratoga Grill and introduced himself to owner Colleen St. John, she was shocked. “My heart hasn’t stopped beat ing fast yet,” St. John said after he left her restaurant.

Some of those stations out of gas could remain out of gas for a little longer, he said. “For the next week I think avail ability will be sporadic and limited, but there will be gas available at higher prices,” he said.

The wholesale price of gas increased and could continue to do so until the refineries are back online, he said, but prices should drop again once refineries are back running. Easley sought to reassure North Carolinians on Friday about a pos sible supply crunch, reminding them that it has happened before. “I think people have calmed down somewhat but I think there’s still some fear out there that there won’t be gas available* Crosby said. “There will be gas available, but it will be expensive.” Contact the State & National Editor at stntdesk@unc.edu.
