"It means a lot to me that the people worked so hard." TV i 5 UOSl dy cuts may o , o nme mm save $40 By JAMES STEPHENS ;. Staff Writer RALEIGH -7 Tuition for out-of-state students at the University, of North , Carolina will be raised by $3,414 next fall if a bill in the legislature passes. The bill, sponsored by Rep. John Jor dan, D-Alamance, would raise tuition fees to cover all the out-of-state students' costs. Jordan said in an interview Tuesday that students who are not residents of North Carolina should have to pay the entire cost of their tuition at the 16 state institutions. , The state subsidizes an average of $3,414 for each out-of-state student on the Chapel Hill campus, said Doug Carter, senior fiscal analyst for the state legislature. The total cost of tuition in the College of Arts and Sciences is $5,267, of which the out-of-state student pays an average of $1,853 each year, Carter said. The average state tuition subsidy varies with each institution in the system. Ap palachian State, for example, receives $1,615 for each out-of-state student, whereas a student in the UNC School of Health Affairs receives $10,804. Overall, Carter said, the elimination of these subsidies would save the state budget nearly $40 million. Jordan said he felt that the University system is not taking a responsible stance on the matter of out-of-state tuition. "They don't want to touch tuition," he said of the UNC administration, adding that the University did not want to offer its full share of help in covering costs. Jordan said that because of the keen ijajmpetition among out-of-state ; students to come to UNC there would not be a drop in non-resident enrollment should the tuition be raised. on costs, million Carter said, however, "You'd like to think" that the quality of instructors (at UNC) would keep attracting the same numbers even with ' raised tuitions." Realistically, he said, there would likely be a drop in the percentage of out-of-state students enrolled under the higher costs. Carter noted that there were 2,000 fewer out-of-state students in 1971 after a raise in their tuition charges. Along with Jordan's bill, which goes to committee next week, there is another pro posal in the House to raise out-of-state tuition that will be considered this spring. This bill, sponsored by Rep. Howard Coble, R-Guilford, proposes that tuition for out-of-state students be raised to 90 percent of costs by the 1986-87 school year. This increase would be effective in the fall when tuition for non-residents would be raised to 60 percent of the full cost. A 10 percent increase would be made every year thereafter up to 90 percent. Coble said that in North Carolina, out-of-state students are paying only 45 per cent of the costs, whereas 10 years ago they paid 70 percent. "Someone has not been watching the pot as it boils," Coble said. "We need to attract talent from outside of the state, but we need to increase their fair share of the costs." Coble said there is a general concern among his constituents about the amount of money that goes to non-residents. . ; These two bills come in the wake of pro posals to cut the UNC budget. Legislative attention to the UNC system is not unusual, Carter said. "Education receives two-thirds of every general tax fund dollar," Carter said. Legislators are looking for ways to come up with $100 million to meet the projected deficit of Gov. Jim Hunt's 1983-85 budget.

Candidates for the elections, scheduled for today, in clude Sherrod Banks, running for chairman; David Hogan, a candidate for treasurer; and Laquetta Robin son, who is running for on-campus coordinator. Before the forum at the meeting, there was an inquiry into charges made against the Central Committee in the past year. ; " i Anita Davis, president of the Black American Law Students' Association, moderated the inquiry. Davis read the complaints of the past year, and the Central Committee members responded. "We wanted to offer the members an opportunity to hear our response to the charges," said Wende Watson, current BSM chairperson. "We wanted to clear the record." - The Central Committee addressed these areas in which there was controversy: ' A request by the Central Committee that the BSM Gospel Choir include music other than gospel in its repertoire, t The choir had responded that if it was to do this, "Gospel" would have to be dropped from its name, a move which choir members opposed. Watson explained Monday night that the Central Committee . suggested the repertoire change to avoid jeopardizing Campus Governing Council funding of the BSM.. Charges that Watson was operating a petty cash fund in violation of CGC treasury laws. "We did have a petty cash fund," Watson said. "The purpose was to reimburse any member whenever the BSM used personal money to make such things as photocopies and tickets." Watson said she discontinued the use of the cash drawer when she found out that it was against the CGC treasury laws to have such a fund. A transfer of $1,500 from the general fund to pay for a summer retreat and work session, authorized by the Central Committee, The transfer was not on the BSM's spring budget. Some BSM members had stated that the transfer should have been included in the budget. Committee members responded that all the money had been alloted through the proper channels. Harold Wallace, BSM advisor and vice chancellor for University affairs, said at the meeting that all the funds were approved by the Student Activities Fund Office. Charges from BSM members that Central Commit tee members forced the resignation of treasurer Anthony Hughes. "I know him well, and he wasn't forced into resign ing," Banks said. "He had a lot of other things to do." The Central Committee felt Hughes was not doing his .job, and asked for his resignation, committee members said. Charges from BSM members that the Central Com mittee held closed meetings in violation of state law. Black Ink editor Sonja Payton responded that only public bodies were under the guidelines of the open meeting law, and that the BSM was not a public body. Committee members said that all meetings were open except for the executive sessions. In today's elections, there are 14 offices to fill, but on ly three candidates running. If elected, Banks said he would fill the other offices by accepting applications and making appointments. Watson said one of the proposals she made to the BSM was a result of the recurring pattern of few members running for office. Watson recommended that the membership elect of ficers for chairperson, vice chairperson, treasurer and secretary. She said the other offices should be filled by appointment. Candidates for the offices of chairperson and treasurer discussed policy and answered questions at the election forum. "My major goal is to make the Black Student Move ment the most respected group on campus," said Banks. Banks plans to make voting records of the BSM's Central Committee public, to send a newsletter to the BSM members twice a month and to set guidelines for money transfers. Banks said that he would set aside 75 percent of the BSM's funds for the membership to allocate, and leave 25 percent under the Central Committee's control. Banks said he hoped the BSM would strive for unity.. "Most people join the BSM for cultural reasons. The BSM is a black cultural presence," Banks said. "We should use the subgroups that represent us to promote black unity," he said. Hogan, who has been treasurer since last semester, said his main concern was the CGC and funding for the BSM. "I feel like we have some help on the CGC, and I hope things go well," he said. Robinson, candidate for on-campus coordinator, said, "I would like to incorporate activities that draw a lot of the University's organizations together." Robinson said she would like these activities to involve both blacks and whites.

So the 1,1 J 7 students who were not lucky enough to survive the campuswide lottery Monday evening now have the task of finding a place to live. There are about 80 apartments in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area from which closed-out students can rent, said Richard Owens, chairman of the Student Con sumer Action Union. For the students who do not know where to begin the task of finding a place to live, the University offers helpful ad vice. The Southern Part of Heaven, a guide to housing in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area, suggests steps to take and things to look out for. -It contains descriptions and evaluations of most local apartments. This year's edition is scheduled to come out about mid-March. ; Apartments are located as near as one block and as far as six miles from cam pus. The majority are on Chapel Hill Carrboro bus routes. Waiting lists are beginning to accumu late at most complexes, managers said. Most places have an average of 20 to 30 names on their lists, and some apart ments, such as Bolinwood, Northampton and Townhouse, have nearly 100. Many complexes require security deposits of $200 to $300. This deposit guarantees the renter an apartment. There is a variety of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments ranging in price from $200 to $350 for one bedroom, $289 to $435 for two bedrooms, and $345 to $500 for three-bedroom apartments, according to a survey of 15 of the area's larger apartment complexes. Apartment managers said they did not predict fall rents would fluctuate much more than $10 over the present quoted rates. Also, many small apartments in the ' area are available to students. There will be a Housing Fair Sym posium Thursday at 7 p.m. in the Student Union auditorium. The Off-Campus Stu dent Association and the Student Con sumer Action Union, publisher of 77t Southern Part of Heaven, will be offering students- advice in finding apartments. Apartment managers also have been in vited to attend the symposium. The SCAU offers an apartment locator and roommate referral service. The apartment locator matches students who are looking for apartments to the apart ments that will fit their needs. It considers such factors as costs, location and park ing. The roommate referral service works like a computer dating system. Students complete a personal description form at the SCAU office in the Union. The form is fed into a computer, which gives a list of 20 students who might be acceptable. "The success of the referral service depends on how many people utilize it," Owens said. The service will be offered to students after Spring Elreak, he said. Collin Rustin, associate director for housing contracts, will discuss on-campus housing possibilities and the method Uni versity Housing will use to communicate with students who are on the waiting list over the summer. Granville Towers offers an option for students not in the apartment market. These are privately operated units near campus. Granville is currently full, but managers said they expect as many as 200 students to cancel their contracts. Gran ville has begun accepting names for its waiting list.
