UNC remains committed
to non-revenue sports
The second of a weekly series on the
UNC athletic department.
By MIKE SCHOOR
Staff Writer
North Carolina Athletic Director
John Swofford described his depart
ment's commitment to non-revenue
sports with five adjectives: positive,
committed, expansive, balanced and
successful.
UNC administrators and coaches
agree with him.
"It's positive, no question," said
Anson Dorrance, coach of UNC's men's
and women's soccer teams.
"UNC is one of the few athletic
departments in the country that takes
all its sports seriously . . . and wants
them all to be competitive," Dorrance
said.
This positive attitude hasn't deve
loped overnight, Swofford said. "The
seeds were sown for an overall approach
to the non-revenue program back in the
late '60s . . . when (former UNC
Athletic Director) Homer Rice laid the
foundation to develop the program
across the board," he said.
Title IX, which requires universities
receiving federal funding to provide
similar athletic programs for both sexes,
and the development of women's sports,
speeded up the committment.
"Also, the student body makeup was
changing (marked increase in female
students) and the University needed to
respond . . . and provide appropriate
women's sports," Swofford said.
UNC fields 24 non-revenue sports
teams, 13 of which are women's pro
grams. "WeVe got more sheer numbers
of sports," Swofford said, adding that
$24,000 was spent on women's athletics
in 1974. Now the funding runs over $1
million annually.
"The department certainly is commit
ted to excellence," said Frances Hogan,
associate athletic director who super
vises UNC's women's program. "We
have cooperation and the budgets are
all good."
Beth Miller, UNC's athletic business
manager, and former volleyball coach,
supervises funds and budgets.

It may seem as though the fall
semester has barely begun, but today
is the deadline for professors to turn
in textbook orders for next semester's
classes.
During the past three years, though,
between 54 an 65 percent of the
departments have been late turning in
their orders, and the cost of those late
orders has been passed to the students.
In the past five semesters before this
one, students have been saved nearly
$1.5 million by the minority of orders
that have been received on time.
"A student can buy a used book for
about $15 rather than a new one for
$20," said Rutledge Tufts, assistant
manager of UNC Student Stores. "He

College Bowl

A game show without prizes
Trivial Pursuit with buzzers. That's how
one student described the campus
College Bowl intramural competition,
which begins Sunday.
The University will once again meet
colleges like Harvard and the University
of Chicago in the spring to compete for
the championship title.
An intramural tournament on cam
pus will determine members of the
University team, said senior Beth
Weller, one of the Carolina Union
coordinators for the tournament.
S
Miller said the total non-revenue
budget for 1984-85 is $9.1 million, an
increase of $900,000 from last year. The
budgets for non-revenue sports were
established five years ago and depart
ment policy is to allot each program
a uniform percentage increase, Miller
said.
"Our main sources of income are
football and basketball," she said. "But
we also get 11 percent of our budget
from student fees."
Television contracts and ticket prices
for UNC football and basketball have
a definite impact on budgeting, Miller
said.
"We budgeted for increases in tele
vision money," she said. "Basketball is
fairly safe. We're overbudgeted in
football because of the late court ruling
(that completely eliminated the NCAA's
control of television rights)."
Swofford said he is concerned about
the ruling, "that could directly affect our
ability to finance a comprehensive non
revenue program."
Currently, the necessary financial
resources are present.
"We give coaches a bottom line and
dividing it up is up to the coach," Miller
said. "Coaches have to justify spending.
We have department guidlines. (For
example), a team cant travel west of
the Mississippi River without
permission."
Dorrance divided his $40,000 budget
for both soccer programs into categories
of spending: 25 percent for equipment,
20 percent for traveling expenses, 15 for
staff, 10 for recruiting, 5-8 for telephone
bills, 6-7 for home games, and 5 each
for soccer conventions, clinics and
camps attended by players, and dues
to the soccer coaches' association.
"You don't have too much flexibil
ity," Dorrance said. "You almost have
to throw in a road trip or two to play
quality teams to attract talented
(recruits)."

this to a situation in which there are
no used books.
"What a lot of faculty members dont
perceive is that a lot of the savings come
from (the Student Store's) buying books
back. They don't see the hurry to get
their book orders in because it's in the
summer months that they plan their
courses (for the fall semester)."
Often a faculty member is justified
in turning in a late book order. "It's
like a rock and a hard place," Tufts said.

that currently has two Republican
senators, substantial Democratic sup

Strong Reagan-Bush support could
also provide Martin with cross-over
votes. In the 1972 gubernatorial elec
tion, Richard Nixon's landslide victory
aided Jim Holshouser in becoming the
first Republican governor North Carol
ina has elected in this century.
Edmisten, who holds a strong lead
over Martin in most major polls, has
the name recognition advantage over
Martin. While serving as Attorney
General since 1974, Edmisten has
erected a powerful statewide organiza

Thirty-six teams of four and five
members will participate in a double

After the intramural competition,
which is scheduled to end in mid
November, five students from the
competition will make up the all-star
team, she said. "That's for members and
one alternate. The College Bowl rules
are that three students must be under
graduates while two must be graduates."
The all- stars compete in one of the
16 regionals, one of the eight super
regionals and then the nationals.

Student Government has taken an
active role this year to help students save
money on their books. Michele Kil

Following the pattern set by other
southern states that now allow a

six-way Democratic primary. Edmisten
may suffer from a disjoined party after
the political bloodletting with former
Charlotte Mayor Eddie Knox.
Martin, however, is benefitting from
the support of Democrats dissatisfied
with the primary results. He received

Stores may be told sometimes just two
or three days before classes start. This
is what we want to stop."
To draw attention to the problem,
the committee is going to compile an
"honor roll" of those departments that
turn in 66 percent of their orders on
time. "But," Killough said, "that
number certainly won't be very many."
Another way the committee plans to
help students save money is to place
textbooks of some larger classes on
reserve. "We are going to try to put
books in the library for classes with
about 250 or more students in them,"
Killough said. "That way students can
choose not to buy the textbook for that
class. This will help solve some of the
students' problems where finances are
concerned."

Student groups that received nearly
$5,000 in Campus Governing Council
allocations last week probably won't get
the money until January because of a
smaller than normal surplus in the
Student Government cash account,
according to Student Body Treasurer
Allen Robertson.
Following Robertson's announce
ment at the CGC Finance Committee
meeting Wednesday, the committee
delayed action on all appropriations
bills it had scheduled to discuss until
the situation could be explored further.
The surplus left by the CGC in May
was only about $40,500. When this
session's CGC budgeted $225,000 it
created a large deficit to be decreased
by incoming student fees; "just a normal
part of our operating cycle," Robertson
said. "It happens every year."
But the Student Activities Fund
Office considers the $225,000 as money
spent at once by the CGC, he said, while
student fees are received gradually
throughout the year. Despite $109,000
in fees already received, the Student
Government account technically is still
about $75,000 in the red. Robertson said
more fees and repayment of half the
Student Television loan should balance
the account by January.
The problem is the low surplus,
Robertson said. A normal surplus near
$100,000 would have brought the

School teaches students
to be effective teachers

The teacher scurries into the room
after having a last-minute cigarette. She
has the . hurried pace all energetic
teachers have, and as the class circles
their wooden desks around the room,
Phyllis Ferrell launches her lesson.
The course is Education 61, and the
students are future teachers. Ferrell, a
graduate student and a former teacher,
is showing senior education majors how
to construct a circuit board to use in
middle-school classrooms. Her class
listens intently because, armed with
lesson plans and the best education
techniques, they will invade local
schools in October and experience the
worries and rewards of being student
teachers, the crucible they must survive
before becoming schoolteachers.
The School of Education at UNC has
about 400 juniors and seniors in its
teacher education program. Despite
public skepticism over the quality of
teachers, and the horror stories they
hear about teaching as a profession,
these 400 intend to at least begin a career
in teaching.
One of Ferrell's students, Susie
Lumpkin, said her class is enthusiastic.
"All of us believe we can change things,"
said Lumpkin, a senior from Atlanta.
But she also realizes the profession has
problems. "I know the other side, the
problems of no suppport. But we can't
afford the negatives. You'd get out of
the program if you thought about the

SAFO would be able to process checks
into the accounts of organizations much
sooner.
"I think weVe been treading on thin
ice with our surplus," said Wyatt Closs,
Finance Committee chairman. "In the
past we had grand surpluses, sometimes
three times what we have now. It's a
dire situation."
Robertson said he waited until the
CGC approved funding to address the
problem because he felt the delay should
not influence the decision to allocate
money. Incoming fees to offset the
deficit fully are virtually guaranteed, he
said.
As for the Fine Arts Festival, which
received $3,500 in allocations, and the
rejuvenated Carolina Course Review,
Robertson said, "111 do whatever's
possible to keep their operations
moving."
Students will get the choice of raising
or decreasing student activities fees in
February if a referendum bill passed by
the Finance Committee meets full CGC
approval next week.
The bill, sponsored by CGC Speaker
Reggie Holley, contains a referendum
offering three choices: increase student
fees by $2 each semester and decrease
fees by $2 both summer sessions;
decrease fees by $2 in the fall and spring,
leaving summer fees alone; or keep fees
unchanged.

negatives."
The negatives low pay, adminis
trative hassles, discipline problems
are factors that drive teachers out of
the classroom and discourage others
from entering the field. Some professors
in the School of Education have joined
educators such as Raymond Sarbaugh,
executive director of the N.C. Associ
ation of School Administrators, and
Cecil Banks, president of the N.C.
Association of Educators, in calling for
reform of pay scales, better working
conditions, and incentives to attract and
retain teachers.
According to Lumpkin, the School
of Education attracts good students.
"We like to call ourselves the cream of
the crop," she said. Statistics support
her claim. William Burke, director of
teacher education at UNC, says the
students enrolled in the school are from
the top 8 percent of their high school
graduating classes. And while national
studies point to a decline in the SAT
scores of education majors nationally,
UNC education students have scored
higher than the national average. UNC
students in the class of 1980 scored 502
in verbal and 528 in math, as compared
with the national average of 431 in
verbal and 472 in math for the same
year.
Even with excellent qualifications,
these students, after graduation, face a
tremendous leap to being first-year
teachers. Student-teaching in their
senior year helps to awaken them to
the gritty realities of the classroom.
Frank Brown, dean of the School of
Education, says the student-teaching
experience is a crucial stage for the
would-be teacher. "Hopefully they
(student-teachers) will have a good
experience, and it will be less difficult
for them," he said. "But we cannot
guarantee success. All teaching situa
tions are different."
Burke says education majors at UNC
receive a solid foundation in their
subject area. "For social studies
teachers, we require (them to take) more
social science classes than a history
major," he said. Education majors must
complete 60 hours of general college
courses, from 45 to 54 hours in their
teaching area, and 18 hours of intern
ship work, including 10 weeks as a
student-teacher their senior year.
Mike Whitley, a senior education
major from Wilson, plans to be a
middle-school teacher. He says the
preparation he has received has been
excellent. "If teachers would do the
things they learned at this department
of education, the state of education
wouldn't be so bad," he said.
The School of Education requires a
General College transfer to have a 1.75
grade-point average to be accepted.
Transfers from colleges other than UNC
must have a B-plus average, and juniors
and seniors transferring from other
University departments must have a 2.7
average.
Burke says the General College
requirement may be raised to a 2. 1 grade
point average. The school does not plan
to increase its enrollment, he says,
despite projected teacher shortages in
North Carolina and in other states.
