High school violence remains a problem
By CHARLENE HAVNAER
Staff Writer
An assault suit was taken out by a Chapel H ill H igh School
teacher last month after he was pushed around during a
skirmish between black and white students.
In December, a youth was stabbed to death at Terry
Sanford High School in Fayetteville when fighting broke out
in a locker room.
High school violence is not as prevalent today as in the
early 1970s, but fighting and racial disturbances continue to
be a problem one which graduates of the UNC School of
Education may face sometime during their careers.
There is always going to.be some violence in the. high
schools because even the best of friends may become
overheated and start a fight," said Robert Glenn, principal of
Grimsley High School in Greensboro.
N.C. high school principals agree violence is a problem
which should be treated in the education curriculum, of
colleges and universities. r
Finley Rush, principal of Chapel Hill High School, said he
feels potential teachers should be taught to suppress violence
by developing proper attitudes in the classroom.
I don't feel that a formal course in college (on classroom
violence) is necessary, but they should talk about mutual
trust and attitude-building in class. Developing proper
attitudes will negate the problems that might arise," Rush
said.
Glenn said colleges should teach instructors methods for
preventing disruptions but also should inform them of their
legal rights in violent situations.
"If a teacher does not do anything to stop a fight she can be
charged with negligence, and if she stops it the wrong way she
can be charged with assault," Glenn said.
Colleges should teach prospective teachers various
methods of working with students who are under stress and
reacting in abnormal ways, according to Ned Richardson,
principal of South Mecklenburg High School in Charlotte.
Violence in the classroom is discussed in a number of
required courses in the UNC School of Education, but there
is no specific course on the subject, according to Neal H.
Tracy, associate dean of the school of education.
Tracy said these courses treat the problem of violence from
a preventive perspective.
Because most violent behavior stems from some sort of
frustration, said Tracy, the courses are concerned wifh how
to recognize a frustrated student and identify the cause of
frustration and various methods of treating it before it
r becomes disruptive behavior.
He said all methods of treating frustration assume the
student will respond rationally.
prison
if that rational sense is not there, the teacher can't use
anything he or she has been taught."
In such cases, the teacher should turn the matter over to
the school authorities, he said.
Courses offered at UNC do not offer instruction directly
responding to violent behavior.
"This is not something that can easily be taught " Tracy
said. "We can talk about it, but that is not very effective.
What we say to do will not be effective in every case of
disruptive behavior, nor in one-half of the cases.
"We try to instruct the teacher so he or she can recognize,
to some reasonable amount, the person's emotional state, so
that if the teacher sees hone of the rational approaches are
going to work and the child is determined to do harm to
someone, he can get help from the authorities. We are not in
the position to give police training to teachers."
Direct responses to violent situations are discussed in
graduate courses which train prospective school
administrators, Tracy said.
The legal rights of students and teachers in violent
situations is explored in the educational methods and
materials courses, but Tracy said they are not focused on very
thoroughly because of the lack of time.
"We have a large area to cover in a short time, if we
focused on this, we would have to substitute it for something
else." Tracy said.

Refreshments are served and the session
ends with everyone returning to one large
group, with the prisoners often participating
in skits and role-playing to share what they
have learned.
An example of the concepts or games dealt
with is negative payoff. In this game a person
expects and may seek disappointments in
order to reinforce his negative feelings about
himself or his environment.
"We live in a very negative (prison)
system," one prisoner said. "We have to play
games to survive."
"You have to play games when you get
out, too," another said. "But the thing is to
make them positive games."
"I'm really getting a lot out of these
sessions," a third inmate said. "This and a
self-counseling session are helping me to
understand myself better."
"I'm gaining a whole lot and learning a lot
about myself," said Mike Dixon, a senior
political science major from Farmville.

CGC holds annual student budget hearings
By NANCY HARTIS
Staff Writer
The Campus Governing Council (CGC) finance
committee has begun its annual task of compiling
the student activities budget for next year.
The committee received written budget outlines
from approximately 30 student organizations last
week and listened to the first in a series of oral
budget presentations. Budget hearings will
continue for the next week and a half.
Approximately $163,000 must be appropriated
by the committee to organizations whose activities
range from those of the UNC Juggling
Association to the Carolina Indian Circle. Each
organization's presentation must be heard and its
proposed budget examined by the committee.
Each organization's budget usually is trimmed
before final approval.
"During the hearings, we ask each organization
to tell us which parts of their budget can be cut
with the least pain," said Phil Searcy, finance
committee chairperson.
"Those categories that are okayed will be cut
first, but sometimes we have to cut in some of the
more important categories as welL" "
To decide how much money will be cut from
each group, the committee compares the total
amount requested from all the organizations to
the $163,000 figure.
The budget request of each organization then is
cut equally to make the two figures match.
. Once the budget is trimmed, it is approved by
committee and typed into the form of a bill to be
presented to the entire CGC for approval.
Attached to the. bill will be a set of treasury
bylaws, which must be rewritten in parts each
year.
theories. Here we are talking about real life."
"We're equal with them (the inmates),"
said Chip Smith, teaching assistant for the
last two semesters. "We're there to learn
from them, also. The inmates don't want to
be patronized."
Smith, a former inmate for 16 months at
the Federal Reformatory in Petersburg, Va.,
is using his background as an asset to the
course, a tool to open up other
opportunities.
"When new things, new problems, arise, 1
can explain how' inmates would feel. I went
in at 26, and I decided to observe everything I
could. I saw certain things the
administrators did. I saw how the system can
knock good people down, and a lot of other
things."
Smith will take over the course as a
research assistant next year when Brandes
will be a visiting professor at the University
of Puget Sound inTacoma, Wash.
Crash takes 576 lives
SANTA CRUZ de TENERI FE, Spain
(UPI) Spanish officials said Monday a
misunderstanding involving the pilots of a
Pan American 747, a Dutch KLM 747 and
the control tower may have caused the crash
that took nearly 600 lives in history's worst
air disaster.
The number of known dead fluctuated
during the day but both KLM and Pan Am
issued revised casualty lists late Monday
which put the number of dead at 576 persons
with 68 survirors. The Spanish government
earlier put the death toll at 562 with 72
survivors..
KLM said all 248 persons aboard its jet,
including four Americans from Rochester,
N.Y., died. The Dutch plane, roaring down
the runway at 186 miles per hour on' takeoff,
ripped through the U.S. jet Sunday
afternoon. Pan American said 328 persons
died aboard its plane, and 68 survived.
Preliminary findings left in doubt who was
at fault in the crash but officials said it was
clear the Pan American plane, laden with
tourists from the Los Angeles area, turned
into the path of the KLM plane.
Officials said it was not known if the KLM
jet had been cleared for takeoff, but both
planes were on the runway, with the KLM
747 at its head and the Pan Am on a section
used for taxiing.
Rebate gets opposition
WASHINGTON (UPI) Republican
leader Howard Baker said Monday there is
an "excellent chance" the Senate will kill
President Carter's proposed $50 per person
tax rebate and substitute a permanent tax
cut to stimulate the economy.
The tax rebate, a key element in Carter's
$31.6 billion, two-year economic stimulus
package, has drawn strong opposition
among many Republicans and some
Democrats who feel it is a quick, one-shot
effort which won't help.
Baker told reporters "I think there is an
excellent chance we will defeat the $50 tax
rebate and substitute for it a permanent tax
reduction."
"We will get almost all of the
Republicans," Baker said, adding there was
significant opposition among Senate
Democrats.

Classes were not canceled, even after
approximately 500 students marched down
Franklin Street to Chancelloi Robert
House's home and set up a cheer for "No
Classes," the Daily Tar Heel reported. But
the chancellor did grant coeds permission to
stay out until 2 a.m. Sunday.
"It was quite a basketball season, winning
32 games straight, and so many of them
overtimes, double overtimes and triple
overtimes," said E. Maynard Adams, a
philosophy professor. "I think the fever pitch
may have been a little higher then."
