By JOSEPH BERRYHILL
Staff Writer
Susan Sparks, a junior political science and speech com
munications major from Charlotte, and Gerry Battle, a
junior psychology major from Greensboro, announced Fri
day their candidacy for senior class president and vice presi
dent. '
The candidates said they would reflect the needs and
desires of the senior class, and they plan to use a question
naire to determine those needs.
"We want to implement the decisions of the senior class,"
Battle said.
Graduating students should have an input into the com
mencement program, Battle said.
"We want the students to choose who they want to speak
at graduation," he said.
At the university level, Sparks said she would like to start a
student advising service composed of seniors.
"Who better than seniors could advise people on what to
take?" she said.
The senior class also may be able to add something to
Orientation, Sparks said.
Preparing graduating seniors for the job market is one ser
vice the candidates said they hoped to provide.
"We'd like to get them into an open house in Great Hall
before they go through interviewing," Sparks said, adding
that various companies would be invited to the program.
Another service the candidates hope to provide is a month
ly senior class newsletter. "It would cover any news that af-

fects seniors," Sparks said.
The candidates said they advocated more social events for
seniors.
A senior class trip, possibly to the Bahamas, is on the can
didates' agenda for next year, Battle said.
"There are all kinds of discount deals," Battle said. "The
cruise lines are really competitive. They like to handle big
groups."
Sparks is a Campus Governing Council representative
from the STOW area and a three-year member of the STOW
executive council. She served as president , of Kenan
Residence Hall her sophomore year.
Gerry Battle is a Carolina Union employee. He has been
active in campus food drives for the needy.
Morrison, Robbins
want class contact
By JOSEPH BERRYHILL

Perry Morrison, a junior history major from Wilson, and
. Angie Robbins, a junior journalism major from Charlotte, an
nounced Friday their candidacy for senior class president and
vice president.
The theme for their campaign is "make seniors special,"
and the candidates emphasized the need to raise money so the
senior class could be more active.
"There are so many ways to make money, you just have to
tap into it," Morrison said. "I think I have the experience to
do that."
Lobbying for funds from the Campus Governing Council
or advertising for businesses in a newsletter are two ways the
senior class might raise fimds, Morrison said.
"I have found talking to merchants that they are very will
ing to put money back into the University community," he
said.
Robbins elaborated on the campaign theme.
"The way I feel we can make seniors feel special is through a
series of programs and workshops," she said.
The workshops would be relatively inexpensive and would
include topics such as resume writing and career planning,
Morrison said.
Morrison and Robbins said they also would like to
distribute a senior class newsletter at least twice in the upcom
ing year.
A senior class trip to the UNC-Virginia football game in
Charlottesville next year also is on the candidate's agenda,
Morrison said. . ,

Morrison and Robbins said they would like to continue the
senior class-sponsored "Last Lecture Series," which features
popular professors at UNC.
Keeping the graduating seniors in touch with UNC is
another goal Morrison and Robbins would like to realize.
"I would like to push Alumni Association membership,"
Morrison said, adding that the membership cost was relatively
low.
Morrison is president of the Carolina Athletic Association
and a member of the Order of the Bell Tower, an honorary
service organization.
Robbins is the governor for Morrison Residence College.
She was a floor officer in Morrison her freshman year, and
served as a floor president her sophomore year. '

Council votes t
6 reform athletic program
By DANE HUFFMAN
Staff Writer
The UNC Faculty Council approved a
resolution supporting the collegiate athletic
reforms proposed by UNC President
William C. Friday and Chancellor
Christopher C. Fordham III at its Friday
meeting.
Last semester Fordham announced
several proposals for athletic reform at a
Faculty Council meeting, including elim
inating freshman eligibility, establishing
long-term contracts for athletic coaches,
tightening recruiting rules, ensuring that
athletes' progress toward a degree and
punishing those athletic programs that
have a low percentage of athletes who earn
degrees.
In response to similar proposals across
the country, the National Collegiate Ath
letic Association tightened admissions re
quirements for athletes recently at the
NCAA meeting in San Diego, Calif.
The resolution Friday was presented to
the Council by Richard A. Soloway, UNC
professor of history; it passed unanimous-
The Council also decided that after
August 1983, the University would no
longer offer degrees in botany and
zoology. Instead, students will pursue a
bachelor of arts or a bachelor of sciences
in the combined department of biology.
The botany and zoology departments were
merged last July.
In other matters, Fordham urged the
Council to continue looking for qualified
minority applicants for positions on the
university faculty. Although one faculty
member earlier had expressed concern
about lowering the academic standards at
UNC, "I am not asking thefaculty to in
sult the standards of this University,"
Fordham said.
Fordham said it was "compelling" that
the University try to hire more minority
faculty members.
Also, Richard G. Cashwell, director of
undergraduate admissions, told the Coun
cil that in the future the University may
have to consider changing its admissions
policies concerning out-of-state students.
UNC now reserves 15 percent of the
by-Berlic Dgeathgd
incoming freshman class for out-of-state
students.
Cashwell said because of declining birth
rates, fewer North Carolina residents
would be applying to the University by the
1990s, but more and more students outside
the state will be applying as the number of
out-of-state alumni continues to grow.
Children of these alumni currently are
given preference as out-of-state applicants,
Cashwell said. He said if this continued, it
might be possible to someday have the en-

tire 15 percent out-of-state quota filled
with just children of alumni.
One way to avoid this might be to have
alumni's children not count toward the 15
percent figure, although they would still
have to pay out-of-state tuition, Cashwell
said.
