Alcohol policy
by Evans Witt
Staff Writer
The Executive Committee of the
Consolidated University (CU) Board of
Trustees will discuss the Issue of a
University-wide policy on alcoholic
beverages today in its regular November
meeting.
The committee will consider the
recommendation of the Administrative
Council that the individual chancellors be
given the power to set regulations for
each campus within the guidelines of
state law and within those worked out in
recent meetings with students und
administrators.
The Administrative Council, composed
of the chancellors of the six campuses of
the University and CU President Willum

enrollment deposits, these deposits are
not automatically refunded. Once a
student enrolls, his deposit can be
refunded at the cashier's office or
deducted from his tuition payment. But
he must request that this be done.
If a student forgets to obtain his
refund, the University simply keeps the
money as a credit on his account until
graduation, when it is refunded to his
home address.

Nyle Frank, known to most as "King
Nyle," has become the first UNC
graduate student to appeal the results of
his doctoral oral examination.
After taking the hour-long orals on
Nov. 2. Frank, a political science graduate
student, was told he had failed the
examination following a 50-minute
deliberation by the Political Science Oral
Examination Committee.
Frank charges the committee did not
show adequate grounds for his failure.
The reasons cited, he said, were that his
knowledge of the works was too
superficial and that his ability to
conceptualize and think on his feet were
poor.
Frank contends he answered all the
questions to the committee's satisfaction
and his nervousness during part of the
questions did not make up the major part
of the examination.
He also charges the criteria for passage
or failure of orals were never made clear
and that he did as well as many who
passed.
to the committee the delegation of such
authority to the chancellors.
Mainly routine matters will take up
the remainder of the committee meeting
beginning at 10:50 a.m. at the General
Administration Buildine of the University
in Chapel Hill.
Two issues that will not come up at
this meeting are the selection of a new
chancellor for the Chapel Hill campus to
replace retiring Chancellor J. Carlyle
Sitterson and the selection of the
University's 16 representatives on the
new Board of Governors for all state
higher education.
The issue of the trustees
representatives will be decided at a special
meeting of the lull board of trustees
November 22 here.

estimated the '"probably 95 percent of
the students have their deposits deducted
from their first tuition payment."
'"But no separate record is kept of
which students still have the deposits on
their accounts, so no one knows exactly
how many deposits are still unrefunded."
he said.
"It is very unlikely that any student
would forget his deposit until
graduation," Woodward added. "Some
leave their deposits on their accounts to
Most graduate students who fail their
orals quit all together or continue
studying for six months in order to take
the examination again. Frank thinks if it
can be shown that a student did
adequately on the exam, then the
committee decision should be reversed.
Frank submitted his appeal to the
Administrative Board of the Graduate
School Thursday. The Board, consisting
of 12 graduate faculty members, will
investigate the appeal this week and meet
on Nov. 18 to make its decision.
Assistant Dean of the Graduate School
Joseph M. Flora said he had no opinion
on the appeal. "My only job is to
disseminate the petition to the members
of the board, which will question the
political science department and weigh
the decision," he said.
Frank said a legitimate opportunity to
overturn a possibly unjust decision such
as this will be of benefit to other graduate
students.
He added that in his particular case the
results of the orals will determine
whether he gets a teaching assistantship
for spring semester.
to be considerec
chancellor for this campus is still
undecided. His Advisory Committee on
the Chancellor is still working on the
selection, he said.
The recent reorganization ot state
higher education by the Generjl
Assembly had stalled the selection
process, he said. The committee is now
working toward recommending a Lte of
nominees to Friday, since Sitterson's
term ends at the start ot the second
semester this v ear.
One not too routine matter the
executive committee will handle !s the
appeal of Thomas Edward Vail on h:s
residency for tuition purposes.
Other items on the committee agenda
include setting the tuition lor

reports and personnel recommendation
from the chancellors ot the CU campus.

The new enrollment of S100
represents a large increase in the S25
deposit currently required of
undergraduates and some graduate
students.
According to Assistant Chancellor
Claiborne S. Jones, "these deposits are
now regulated by state law for the first
time. There has never before been a
University-wide policy concerning the
deposits.
"In accord with a directive from the
State Budget Office," Jones said, "the
refundable deposits will now go into a
separate trust fund and will not go into
the University's general fund unless they
are forfeited."
Asked why the deposits are not
automatically deducted from tuition
payments. Woodward said, "The
refundabe deposits are already being kept
in a separate account. But not until our
office is fully automated will we be able
to show the deposit credit on every
statement which the student receives.
"When the office is fully
computerized, then we hope to be able to
refund the deposits automatically by
reducing the tuition charge, rather than
waiting for the student to request a
refund.
"If a student makes his first tuition
payment in the cashier's office, we will
deduct the deposit. But if he pays his
tuition at registration, or pays the
amount shown on his statement from the
registrar's office, the deposit stays on his
account."

The guidelines on alcoholic beverage
use on campuses whkh the chancellors
would operate under if approved by the
committee permits possession and
consumption in private rooms of all
residents and guests of legal age.
Vor areas other than private rooms,
such as social lounges, halls of
dormitories, dorm lobbies and other
University property, the proposed
guidelines call for the chancellor to make
th
necessary decisions on alcoholic use.
The guidelines call for the chancellor
consult with appropriate student
to
representatives before any determination
is made.
These guidelines were worked out in
