The petition asks that the .proposed tax exclude all full time faculty and students of academic institutions. y Mueller, who is chairman of the UNC International Student Center, wrote the petition in order to "let the authorities know that students are con cerned about this." While circulating the petition Thursday among UNC students and faculty and gathering 650 signatures, Mueller contacted the NSA (national headquarters . . asking for endorsement. Don Macintosh, NSA Vice President for International and Community Affairs, said that he was "definately in total agreement with the peti tion." Rut because of the NSA's tax-free status, it would not be able to sponsor the petition or lobby for the proposed change in the bill, he said. Macintosh did say that there is a "good possibility" that Mueller's petition will serve as a nation-wide petition on this matter " Should the NSA decide to unofficially endorse the peti tion, it would play a major role in circulating the petition among the 380 member col-, leges, Mueller said. Charles Jeffress, NSA co ordinator for UNC said he is in favor of circulating the petition nationally. z DTH Staff Photo by MISS MeGOWAH A student holds up an effigy of Gov.

Quoting Ifrom a nation-wide report, Dean Cathey said that on issues ranging "from the ridiculous to the .sublime," UNC was in the middle. ' The report listed 18 common controversial issues on cam puses and stated consenses policies, pointing out specific examples under each listing. The number one issue creating problems on college campuses was sexual deviation from the norm. The report said that in almost all institutions this problem is dealt with at an administrative level by ap propriate deans. A dress policy of some type is enforced, Cathey said, by 66 per cent of the institutions Two - Story Jum Nets Coed Trou hie x i. i i A f reshman coed was put on indefinite probation Tuesday night by Women's Honor Court for violating the apartment rule, leaving the dormitory before closing hours by way of a second-story window, and spending the night in Chapel Hill and vicinity.

The coed was also found guilty of failure to sign in and failure to sign out. , A junior man was sentenced to definite probation terminating Feb. 1, 1969, in a Feb. 7 Men's Honor Court trial for the Honor Code offense of cheating. He was aHleged to have "looked at and used in formation from the. paper of the student sitting next to you (the defendant) in prepartion of your (the defendant's) final laboratory exam" in psychology. This offense was on Jan. 12, 1988. The student received definite probation instead of a harsher penalty because the conditions under which the exam was given made seeing someone else's paper unavoidable.

Most institutions, the report continued, have policies on alcoholic beverages. Some are rigorous, and some are ex tremely liberal, as is Duke. The schools having rigorous prohibition policies strictly en force them with strong punitive action, short of suspension. .
