Copyright 1 S86 The Daily Tar Heel Volume 93, Issue 125 o CD OH Slid Dy KATHY NANNEY Staff Writer The Office of Student Affairs is committed to the creation of a Black Cultural Center and has backed up the commitment by reserving funds and space in the Student Union, the dean of Student Affairs has said. But some members of the committee assigned to describe the function of a BCC say they are concerned about the fate of their proposal once it is completed. "We have beginning money for a position, and space has been reserved should a (BCC) proposal come forward that says we want to begin, said Donald A. Boulton, vice chancellor and dean of Student Affairs, in a December interview. "We have made a commit ment in terms of possible space and money. Some students on the committee question the extent of that commitment. "Getting a proposal passed will be relatively easy," said Black Student Movement President Sibby Anderson before the first committee meeting of last semester. "Getting a proposal passed as planned I see as very difficult." Anderson is a member of the BCC committee. . . . (The proposal) will make demands on the University I dont think the University is ready to make," she said. The BCC committee was formed in April 1984 and asked to describe the concept of a Black Cultural Center for UNC and to provide a job description for a possible BCC director. The committee is to submit its final report to Boulton, who has said he would then proceed with plans for a BCC, if the proposal favored one. The committee will hold its first official .meeting of fhe-semester today. An earlier meeting was disbanded because of low attendance. After 21 months, committee members have researched and expanded 10 components of a BCC outline written by. former committee member Sherrod Banks. At the end of last semester, committee members were revising and expanding an earlier written version of the proposal. "I haven't seen any proposal," Boul ton said. "The only thing we have done is that Howard Henry (Carolina Union director) has been asked to reserve some potential space and money if the proposal comes along. "It is not within my jurisdiction to do anything other than what I have done." Money has been earmarked for a inrDayoir says fjy JENNY ALBRIGHT Staff Writer - Student body president candidate Ryke Longest said last week that one of bis goals, if elected, would be to "fight the Chapel Hill mayor's idea to limit the number of non-related persons living in houses to four." But Mayor Jim Wallace said in an interview Tuesday that he had "never advocated anything . . . (Longest) is talking about." Longest said he received some of his information on the policy from Jane Gordon, a senior from Morehead City. "It's also a racial issue," Gordon said Wednesday, "because it discriminates against lower income families who have more than one family living under one roof." Wallace said the town had areas designated as "single family" areas, and these specific locales were the only ones that would be affected by the kind of proposal to which Longest referred. No motions have been made to enact such a proposal in Chapel Hill, he said. Single family areas are residential locales that are zoned only for homes, not for apartments or condominiums, which arc considered multi-family dwellings. The matter surfaced during a November forum in the Pit, Wallace said. "The question was, 'How do you control private housing being taken over by non-married persons in areas designated for single-family use? You can end up with rooming houses in those areas." Wallace said officials in surrounding towns such as Durham had mentioned a policy to limit the number of non related persons living in one house to Sea MAYOR page 3 ill cP UatrDimcsDr UDtnTDOU salary for a BCC director, a secretarial position and supplies, Boulton said. "It is start-up money should a proposal come forward," he said. Space to the right of the east entrance to the Student Union, where vending machines formerly were, also has been reserved for possible use by the BCC, Boulton said. While Boulton has reserved money and about 1,500 square feet in the Student Union, the BCC committee is discussing a much larger facility. The current BCC proposal, as com piled and written by committee member Kenneth Smith, recommends the center include a library, a large art gallery, and a staff consisting of a director, secretary, work-study students and graduate students. ' It recommends the BCC include an artist-in-residence program, a tutorial program and a ,, possible sponsorship of art performances. The BCC committee was given no constraints when told to plan a cultural center, said Camille Roddy, a junior from Winston-Salem and a member of the committee. The lack of limits in planning the center may hinder the proposal's effectiveness, making it appear unreal istic, Roddy said. "We didn't know what to plan for," she said. "We were told, 'Plan what you want.' If we plan so big, would Student Affairs take a look at it and say it's unreasonable?" Boulton said he told the committee members to dream when they planned , the BCC. Requesting the committee to be expansive provides goals for the center but does not mean those goals will be met immediately, he said. The BCC will have to begin with available resources and grow as more resources arejfoundirBoulton saii: "There has to be a beginning point," he said. "You have to take things a step at a time. "Dean (Edith) Wiggins (assistant vice i chancellor of Student Affairs) and I have talked about this several times, that we may not have much to begin with, but that's not new. To me, that's normal." Boulton said he would try to raise more funds and support for the BCC once he received the proposal and a center was established. "If we get off the ground, get a director and get an office, those are the foundations," he said. "Then we go out and start raising money."

Serving the students and the University community since 1893 Friday, January 24, 1986 4 n ft an J By TERESA KRIEGSMAN Staff Writer About 500 students gathered at South Building Thursday to protest the disregard for student input and lack of integrity in the Division of Student Affairs. Many of the students left their 9:30 a.m. classes to attend the rally, sponsored by Students for a Student Voice. About 30 students stood, pn the steps of South 'Building,' holding signs with slogans such as "Let's put the student back in Student Affairs." Todd Hart, an executive assistant for Student Government, began the rally, telling the crowd that coming to the protest "shows how much everybody cares about the University." Student Body President Patricia Wallace . told students that they had "every right and. obligation" to protest. "If we don't defend ourselves, nobody else will do it for us," she said. She said that students had high aspirations but lacked support from Student Affairs. "We have castles in the air," she said. "Now we need tomt something under them." Political science Professor Lewis Lipsitz told the crowd that many faculty members were delighted that students were interested in important issues. He said student activism was a "demand for self-respect."

Student Attorney General Mary Evans said the atmosphere of distrust between . students and the division had "negative implications for the honor system." She said a weak bond of trust had led to "disilhionment, skepticism and frustration." V : . "Student initiative and enthusiasrq is often stifled" because they are misled and deceived, she said. Evans said she wanted "open communication and straightforward answers . . . and an understanding of what . . . (the students') role can and should be by the administration." SS V fliers circulated at the rally called for a statement and acknowledgement of students' inability to work with Donald A. Boulton, vice chancellor and dean of Student Affairs, and Edith Wiggins, assistant vice chancellor of Student Affairs. Citing what he called the division's "deliberate policy of deceiving the students," Fetzer Mills, a student body president candidate last year, called for Boulton's resignation. "The only solution I can see is to clean house in Student Affairs, and the only way to clean house is to begin at the top," Mills said. The SSV fliers also called for the elimination of the firing-without-cause clause that allowed Campus TecGHio Diroslh .coinrii'Dinisi tow By LEE ROBERTS Sports Editor Jan. 9, 1986: New York Georgia Tech basketball players horse around in the lobby of Madison Square Garden, waiting to play Rutgers in the second game of a college doubleheader. Guard Mark Price and center John Salley pretend they are Mo Cheeks and Robert Parish, respectively, as Jack Mansell narrates the action. Craig Neal repeatedly throws a basketball against the wall, just inches above Tom Ham monds' head. The Yellow Jackets are loose. v.; Suddenly, into the lobby runs the ' North Carolina basketball team, having just defeated Fordham 92-68 in the first game. The horsing around stops. The two teams stare coldly at each other, and the Yellow Jackets hold onto their basketballs. When these teams get together, things get serious. After a spring, summer and fall of waiting, the North Carolina basketball team wUl finally get its chance Saturday at the Dean Dome (3 p.m., WPTF-Ch. 28) for redemption. Three times last season, the Tar Heels played Georgia Tech and three times the Yellow Jackets came out the winners, including the ACC Tourna ment Championship. Tech became the first' team from outside of North Carolina to beat the Tar Heels thrice in a single season. , But this is a different season and two . different teams. North Carolina is ranked No. 1 in the country in every poll, sports a 19-0 record and is 4-0 in ACC play. Georgia Tech, meanwhile, is ranked No. 2, 3 or 4, depending on which poll you read. The Jackets are 16-1 and 5-0 in the ACC after an 87 80 win over Duke Tuesday night in Atlanta. The game will be for first place in the ACC, as the teams are the only undefeated teams left in the conference.

SSV spokesman Joel Katzenstein told the crowd that "when tnist is gone, there is no administration." Katzenstein said students, as "consumers buying a product," needed to express their views on the product. He called for an "evaluation of our deans and lnUnuatonXUthemMoyr Ptl paper whether we think" theyre, doing a good job or if they're slackards." Katzenstein called for the formation of an advisory board consisting of administration officials, faculty members and students. He said he wanted students to choose which student organizations would be represented on the board and to have input into which officials and faculty members would be chosen. Wallace said after the rally that she and Boulton had been developing plans for an advisory board. Wallace said she saw an advisory, board as a long term project between students and the division but "not as a satisfactory solution to the current crisis." Boulton said he was aware of the lack of commun ication between students and Student Affairs.
