"I beg your pardon," said Franklin McCain, 18. of Washing ton, "you just served me at a counter two feet away. Why is it that you serve me at one counter It may be true that most Governors have had a "pet proje t": however it is a'so true that '1 appropriations for "pet projects" or other p-ojerts must be approved bv the Gen eral --Assembly of North Carolina as is pro vided for in Article II, Section 1 1 of the North Carolina State Constitution.

It we are not going to take an o'her student's word, then let us be h(net with ourselves and ad mit that the Honor System only works in some buildings on this campus and not in all of them. lows for a minimal amount of higher level guid ance for the student. The University schedule is an incredibly com plicated mass of hours, numbers and courses which could only be deciphered by a trained expert n hieroglyphics er early Egyptian symbols. Never theless the student is expected to be able to find his way through this morass of contusion and come out wiih a schedule of courses suited to his in tellectual and departmental requirements. This is not possible without some form of advisory help which offers more than mere lip service. The fault for this mess cannot be laid to the advisors themselves. Although there are a number of men serving in an advisorial capacity who ob viously have little concern for the individual stu dent, there are more who give the impression that they are as harassed by this impossible situation as the students themselves. The fault must be placed within the adminis tration of the University for seemingly failing to realize that thoughtful and considerate guidance is as important to a college student as to a high schooler. The system, which places the number of advisees oer advisor at a fantastic ratio rlno nni Perhaps it doesn't work in any ol aow posi(ive counseiing. ' R iveg thp individual them.

To live under a system thai bases it sell on honesty and then not to be honest under that system is an God, you can do.' Princeton University has an admirable system greater .in than having the of advising wherein individual faculty members even system that doesn't base its be liefs on honesty. The line should be drawn somewhere. Kendall have no more than seven or eight students under their personal surveillance. These men are more than academic signposts to the student, telling him where he may and may not go; they are friends, willing to suggest, counsel and mediate. They pro- There are disadvantages to this system, and they would be particularly difficult to overcome. The primary one is that every faculty member would have to participate in the program so that it might be effective. The student-faculty ratio here is eight to one, and a good advisor cannot establish a close rapport with many more than eight students. At the same time, few teachers here live very near the campus, which makes it difficult for the student to contact them in emer gency situations or for quick consultation. A fam ily man cannot be expected to devote an abnormal amount of time to matters out of the home, and teachers are in positions which require a great amount of away from the office work anyway. Despite these disadvantages, the abovemention ed system is one which goes to make a better University. Princeton and its students have un doubtedly benefited from the program, and there can be little doubt that the same would be true at Chapel Hill. A student who is given fifteen minutes a semester with a busy man who cannot devote the time to learn his name is not going to feel close to the University's administration, and he is probably going to end up taking a cur riculum which does not suit his basic interests because no one has had the time to sit down with him and give him a realistic view of the courses themselves and their relationship to him. It is not going to be easy to devise a program which will satisf act orally replace the present one, but it must be done. We cannot continue to exist in a vacuum which separates us from the Univer sity and the faculty. Some students have been fortunate enough to establish friendships with in dividual instructors who have helped them with their academic planning, but far . less than the majority are included in this group. If we expect to get the full benefit of a University education we must ask the University to give us a little more help in learning the ways to get those all-important benefits.

I would like to conclude by saying John L). Larkins Jr. has been gaining practical ex perience in North Carolina for the last quar ter of a century. Among his positions have been President Pro Tempore of the State Senate, member of all standing Senate Committees- He was chairman of the State De mocratic Party from 1 95 -1 and ha.s been the Democratic National Committeeman since 1 f",S. He was ChairuKii of the Advisors Budget Commission and Ioard of AwanK for two terms. In my opinion. Mr. Larkins knows the potential of our state, and above all, he knows the need of every section of North Carolina. John G. Alley Member of "Students CxmmI Government' . Advocating John D.
