Copeland said Chicago would perform for about
one-and-a-half hours of the two hours of each show.
The concerts will be presented in Carmichael
Auditorium on Oct. 31, at 8 p.m. and 11:15 p.m.
The first concert sold out Monday afternoon, the first
day of ticket sales. The 7,000 tickets were sold in less

The unprecedented demand for tickets to the concert
provided a large market for the scalping of tickets.

Abnormally large classroom situaions
are not unusual for a growing campus,
but the distinguishing factor of 95-A is its
radical concept of education.
In 95-A, the class controls discussion
topics and overall direction. There are no
instructors, only seminar leaders which
break down the large group into workable
numbers for rap sessions. There are no
tests-emphasis is placed upon topics of
interest to the, individual, with seminar

Soleri, a native of Italy and a student

in the desert of Arizona for the past 12
years, designing his verticle cities.
The purpose of these cities is to

Willingham introduced race as the day's

questions for discussion and then turned

Student Legislature will consider a bill
to unfreeze the Orientation Commission's
funds in tonight's session. The bill will be
reported out "unfavorably" by the SL
Finance Committee, which unanimously
voted against its passage Monday
afternoon.
Another bill expected to be
recommitted to Finance Committee,
would halt any fund committments to be
made by the International Student Center
for' next year's foreign exchange program.
The Orientation Commission's funds
have been frpzen since October 8 when
the Finance Committee received late
requisitions totalling $914 from the
commission to cover financial losses of
Sept. 12 and 14 orientation picnics.
Finance Committee Chairman Robert
Grady said Wednesday he intends to offer
Legislature three alternatives which
would unfreeze funds.
"If the bill is passed, then legislature
will assume the debt," Grady said. "My
alternatives would give legislators the
choice of paying all of it, splitting it with
the administration or paying none of it."
The commission was appropriated
$3,000 for orientation picnic purposes in
the 1970-71 Student Government budget.
That amount was cut by a special summer
session of SL leaving the commission with
approximately $2,000 to carry out the
picnic programs.
Grady contends that the picnics were
to be self financed and that the debt
incurred is not student government's
responsibility.

"Most students are socialized into a
subservient role with the professor
playing god," he continued. "In reality,
students are capable of self-education."
McGaughey defended the feasibility of
a discussion-based class the size of 95-A.
"It's the principle of democracy," he
. said, "Rational people meeting together
to analyze problems and come up with
new solutions."
"We are stressing creative thinking in
this course and we know this will be
difficult for students at first because of
the demands of our educational system,

students and whether the responsibility
ends with their admission, the
University's rationale for the hume. and

are involved in the legislative packet,
questions that need to be seriously
brought into the open."

bill, condemned the failure of th
commission to use a requisition in paying
a portion of the debt to Chicken Box in
Durham, the firm providing the dinners,
and the fact that a self supporting picnic
lost almost $ 1 ,000.
According to Assistant Dean of Men
Richard Stevens, the loss was incurred by
inexperienced student waiters serving
larger proportions of food than had been
intended.
The bill affecting the International
Student .Center's foreign exchange
student program was passed by Finance
Committee to allow time for
consideration of the entire program,
according to Robert Grady.
Grady said committee members agreed
to recommit the bill and have ISC
representatives present their views to the
committee.
Controversy arose over ISC plans to
expand their six exchange student
program to include an additional South
African exchange. The current program
has two exchanges with Germany, two
with Columbia and one each with France
and Puerto Rico respectively.
The program's expenses are currently
shared between the administration and
the student government. The
administration pays for- the foreign
students' out-of-state tuition while
student government assumes the cost ol
fees, room, board and a modest cash
allowance.
In other legislative business, a bill to
appropriate approximately S62 to the
Women's Athletic Association (WAA) will
be considered. The appropriation would
cover the expenses of proposed WAA
meetings for discussion of the group's
intercollegiate activities.

the philosophies of this course is the

said. "It's a shame the state is noi

John Martz, chairman ot the political
science department, said there can be "no
clear evaluation of the course until the
end of the semester."
However, he said, "the course so far
ha:; shown, in a variety of ways, that
students are interested in contemporary
affairs and the course has put this m

McGaughey urged all members of the
class to attend Friday so' a finalized role
could be filled out aid a questionnaire
presented so that students can give their
ideas on future ideas for class discussion.
