THE DORMITORY PROBLEM TODAY
The Need for a Counselor
(This is the fifth in a series of editorials on the management of
men's dormitories at Carolina.)
Coincident with the arrival of Carolina's greatest problem of
dormitory management has come a tendency to reduce the num
ber of student counselors in dormitories possibly for financial
reasons. The reduction of the number of counselors must stop
now, for the need for their reduction has passed, and a vital need
for some order in dormitories is dependent upon the qualified
counselor.
- In recent years, student counselors have all too often been
unqualified, and - consequently dormitory life has not been at
its best.

On Bedside Lectures
Ninety-one students in a biol

ed expectantly for the professor
to arrive. Suddenly his voice
boomed out of the loud speaker
in the room explaining that al
though he was in bed with a cold
he would proceed with the lec

Report On Lenoir Hall
Explanation Made Why UNC Students
Pay More For Food Than Duke, State
By John Giles
Criticism of the University
Dining Hall has arisen once
again. Students wondering what
reasons are back of the high
food cost and finding no appar
ent ones are devising their own
explanation. Scores believe that
Lenoir Hall must be making a
sizable profit. In order to veri
fy or disprove this charge, an J
investigation of the food price
structure at the campus dining
hall was conducted last week.
To clear up the maze of gossip
and hearsay that now exist, a re
view of the findings is present
ed.
Carolina students rightly con
tend that they are paying more
for food than Duke and State
students are. However, there are
several factors which account
for the higher food price her.e.
A major cause results from the
higher wages the dining hall is
forced to pay for help. This
comes about because it is much
harder to get workers in Chapel
Hill than it is in Raleigh or Dur
ham. Another factor, which is
seldom given consideration, is
the high standard of cleanliness
required by the university. With
due respect to both State and
Duke, Lenoir Hall health stan
dards are higher. Students want
the tables wiped off after each
use, the floors swept and mopped
three times a day, the kitchen,
storage, and garbage rooms kept
immaculately clean as is done in
Lenoir Hall. Nonetheless, higher
SI VIA Vi,

its students is at stake. The administration must now have

Life Can Be Beautiful
By Dick and Wyck
standards of cleanliness mean
higher cost.
The other day I talked to a
Duke student about the food over
there. In answer to my question
about the quality of food they
are getting he said, "Sure we pay
1pc than vnn rfo fS37.50 a
month), but we have a set meal
with no choice. Everybody is
complaining about the stuff we
eat and worrying the officials to
death. We don't see why we can't
have good meals like you Caro
lina students have".
A third factor may surprise
the ladies. The Carolina co-eds
enter into the food cost. The
women here like to eat a little
fancier food and catering to that
taste is of importance in the
food price structure. Duke, it
is said at present, disregards
this important matter in food
while State has, of course, a vast
majority of men in its student
body.
Lenoir Hall is not being op
erated at capacity. Even on week
days facilities are available with
out opening the north wing for
an additional 200 in the main
dining room from 12 to 1 p.m.
and another 200 in the south
wing dinnette. By Sunday morn
ing the hall hits a low ebb with
around 150 customers for break
fast. Thus it is necessary to make
running expenses during a four
day period from Monday through
Thursday. This is due to the fact
that the cafeteria breaks about
even on Friday and sustains a
loss on Saturday and Sunday.
The above are the main fac
tors which cause the difference
in food price between the
schools. The situation, however,
is not helped by the mortgage on
the dining hall itself. Lenoir
Hall was built in 1939 at a cost
of $289,000. In order to pay for
the building the University is
sued bonds to cover 55 of the
cost. The remaining 45? came
in the form of a federal govern
ment grant which will not have
to be repaid. To pay off these
university bonds approximately
$11,000. of the dining ball reve
nues are set aside each year or
$985 per month. A survey of the
dining hall balance sheet shows
that this represents a consider
able part of the food cost. De
preciation of high cost kitchen
equipment is another major item
of the expenses.
The University trustees, inci
dentally, have asked the manage
ment to keep the price of board
as low as possible and not to let
profits accumulate. An examina
tion of the December and Janu
ary dining hall balance sheets
shows that this request is being
carried out. A slight loss for De
cember was balanced by a slight
profit in January. According to
a reliable source, food prices are
made with the sole object of
keeping the cafeteria self-sufficient.
It should be realized, in fair
ness to the management of Le
noir Dining Hall, that they are
working for the best interest of
the students and not for any
profit or gain.
