CGLA budget
By GUY LUCAS
Staff Writer
The Carolina Gay and Lesbian
Association's budget was a major point
of contention at the Student Congress's
final budget hearing Saturday, surviv
ing more than three hours of debate
and an attempt to defund the group.
The congress finally settled on a
Student Government appropriation of
$905 after see-sawing between several
proposals ranging from zero to $1,200.
The Finance Committee had recom
mended an appropriation of $1,697.
Much of the debate was marked by
confusion, and several congress
members voted in favor both of high
and low funding levels.
Jim Wooten (Dist. 19) proposed
defunding the CGLA, citing lack of
student support, programs that over
lapped with those of other area groups,
such as the Student Health Service, and
what he said was the group's antago
nistic attitude which prevented rather
than promoted understanding.
Other Student Congress members
also said they supported defunding the
group because that was what their
constituents wanted. Rob Friedman
(Dist. 16) cited a poll that he, Jody
Beasley (Dist. 16) and Lori Taylor (Dist.
16) had taken in their district that
showed 68 percent of their constituents
in favor of defunding the CGLA.
"The students don't want it, and we're
spending students' money," Friedman
said. "Liberals on this congress cite
student opinion on some issues . . . then
ignore it when it's convenient."
If 10 percent of the student popu
lation is gay, as the CGLA asserts, then

Cumulative grade point averages and
semester hours will now carry greater""
weight in the appeals process for
students who do not pass nine hours
and obtain a 1.0 grade point average,
the UNC Faculty Council decided
Friday.
And Faculty Council Chairman
George Kennedy, professor in the
classics department, told the council
that UNC was behind in its affirmative
action goal.
Also in Friday's meeting, the council
decided to consolidate the University's
scattered tutorial programs in one place.
According to the new minimum
eligibility guidelines, students must now
pass nine semester hours and obtain a
1 .0 grade point average during their odd
semesters in residence before being sent
to the appeals court.
W. Miles Fletcher, associate profes
sor of history said the present require
ment, where students must acheive a
2.0 GPA before graduation, was enough
of a burden on the students, so the
additional requirement was not
necessary.
"Some students might not get a 1.0
or pass nine semester hours, but they
may meet cumulative requirements,"
Fletcher said. "It's a change that helps
students because it means that only one
criterion is applied (to their eligibility).
Because of the changes, cumulative
grade point averages and semester
hours will have more weight in deter
mining a student's eligibility. ,
Also in Friday's meeting Kennedy
said the University had not made any
progress in increasing the number of
black faculty members, although
December 1 986 was the deadline for the
University's affirmative action plan.
To fulfill the plan, the council decided
last September to appoint 34 women
and 30 blacks to positions. In the 56
appointments made since then.
Food! service restuillt

The University hopes to have state
approval of its food service contract
recommendation before the last day of
classes so the decision can be publicized
in The Daily Tar Heel, said Frank W.
Fearrington, director of purchasing and
stores.
Officials in business and finance said
they were not sure how students would
be notified of the selected food service
if the decision was not approved before
the end of the week.
"The University really wants to get
the decision from the state as quickly
as we can." said Biruta Nielsen, assistant
to the vice chancellor of business and
finance.
Fearrington said the State Division
of Purchasing and Contracts must

$ I, Friedman said.
Todd Patton (Dist. 18) said oppo
sition to the CGLA was shown by
reaction to Blue Jeans Day. when the
CGLA calls on people to wear jeans
in support of gay rights.
"Jeans Day is the one day of the year
when students make an effort not to
wear blue jeans because they don't
support the gay cause," he said.
Brad Torgan (Dist. 4) said the CGLA
was needed to help gays deal with the
hostility some people felt toward
homosexuality. Fear keeps gays from
openly supporting the CGLA as Fried
man suggested, Torgan said, and Blue
Jeans Day was meant to make others
aware of this fear as well as show
support for gay rights.
"You'll never know the fear of
walking down this hall (to the CGLA
office) and wondering if one of your
friends will see you," he said.
"YouH never know the fear of being
run out of your dorm because your
roommate found out you're gay. YouH
never know the fear of a friend who
has to leave school because his parents
cut him off."
CGLA Chairman Jim Duley said his
group's programs didn't overlap with
those offered by groups like Student
Health Service because the CGLA
addressed different issues. Many gays
and lesbians also perceived the SHS
staff as having anti-gay attitudes, Duley
said.
Student Body President Bryan Hassel
said using student opinion as a reason
for defunding the group was just an
TJ O
dhannged.
Kennedy said, 19 were women and none
were black.
Kennedy said he was not convinced
'"The faculty understood the serious
effects of not fulfilling the plan and that
they should try harder to seek qualified
black candidates for their departments.
"If we fail," Kennedy said, "we will
bring serious criticism on the
University."
UNC System President CD.
Spangler also told the council that
academic freedom was needed to ensure
the survival of schools in the UNC
system.
"Great institutions of higher learning
cannot exist without academic free
dom," Spangler said. "We want our
scholars and teachers to be
uninhibited."
Tutorial programs, now located in
various departments of the University,
will be placed in one department, the
council decided after hearing a commit
tee report saying students were not using
the tutorials and were not aware of the
various programs.
"What we're asking them to do right
now is to run through a maze to find
what they need," said Gillian Cell, dean
of Arts and Sciences and chairman of
the subcommittee on mandatory aca
demic support programs. "There's no
one place where students can go to get
advice."
"In any freshmen class, at least 500
students need academic help and they
are not finding it," Cell said.
"Only 70 percent of advisors (that the
committee surveyed) knew there was a
reading program in Phillips Hall," Cell
said, referring to a program that was
not being used by a large number of
students.
Although the faculty council had
approved having a single program, the
committee would do further research to
decide whether mandatory attendance
would be required for all freshmen. Cell
said. .
approve the University's recommended
food service before the contract can be
awarded.
Once the state makes its decision, the
companies that bid for the contract will
be notified. Fearrington said, and then
the choice will become public
information.
Fearrington said he must agree with
the recommendation made by Farris W.
Womack. vice chancellor of business
and finance, before it was submitted to
the state for final approval.
Once the recommendation is sent to
the state lor final approval, the Uni
versity has no control over when the
decision is made. Fearrington said.
He said. "11 Raleigh is in conflict with
our decision, a lot of people could
become involved."

excuse that hid the real motivation of
moral opposition to homosexuality.
"I want to hear people say they are
morally opposed if they object for that
reason," Hassel said. "The standard that
the students don't want us to fund this
group this year has not been used for
any group we saw today. I want you
to apply the same standards for eve
ryone you judge.
"The mission of Student Government
is to serve the best interests of students,
but that doesn't necessarily mean what
students think is right," he said,
comparing opposition to gay rights with
opposition to civil rights in the 1960s.
Kari Trumbull (Dist. 17) said con

as an excuse to hide moral opposition .
to the CGLA. She also said the congress
shouldn't fund a personal preference
group.
". . . (Students) care that their money
is being spent on something they don't
belong to, can't be a part of," she said.
"You can't tell me the money doesn't
matter."
The proposal to defund the CGLA
failed 13-9.
Debate on attempts to cut the
appropriation to the CGLA centered on
the group's ability to raise money from
other sources, particularly subscriptions
to the newsletter Lambda.
Torgan and Student Body Treasurer
John W. Williams said $1,200 was the
minimum amount needed to give the
group a working margin. The CGLA
would not be able to raise any more
money on its own than it had this year.

Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m. the North Carolina
Duke lacrosse matchup was officially proclaimed a
rivalry. After 18 years of having sand kicked in their
collective Blue Devil faces by those UNC bullies, Duke
came to Fetzer Field and lost a lacrosse game, but
won respect. And how.
North Carolina's 9-8 overtime victory over Duke
wasats 19th straight victory over its next-exit neighbor,
but it had absolutely nothing in common with the first
18. This was a contest. A war. And were it not for
the ball finding a comfortable home in Gary Seivold's
flailing stick at the crucial moment. Duke may have
rebuffed history and taken some of those UNC bullies
back to Durham as prisoners of lore.
The ball met Seivold's stick after a furious faceoff
scramble in the opening seconds of sudden death
overtime. Seivold cradled the ball and took off up

Sixteen members of the UNC Stu
dents Taking Action for Nuclear
Disarmament led the Southeastern
delegation Thursday of the third annual
National Student Lobby Day in
Washington, D.C.
About 600 students from around the
nation displayed their demands for
nuclear disarmament by marching to
the Capitol and meeting with
Phoenix to publish less, tighten spending
By SUZANNE JEFFRIES
Staff Writer
After much debate and several budget
amendment proposals, the Student
Congress voted 14-6-1 to cut the
Phoenix's original Finance Committee
allocation of $20,879 to $15,374.
The $5,505 cut would force the
Phoenix to print 6 fewer issues and
circulate 5,000 copies per issue. Todd
Patton (Dist. 18) proposed the final
amendment.
The Finance Committee originally
cut the printing and publicity amount
submitted by the Phoenix from 28 issues
to 23 issues, and cut the number of pages
from 24 to 16, said Finance Committee
Chairman Jody Beasley (Dist. 16).
The congress reached its decision
after questioning former editor Dan
Cowhig and current editor James
Farrer about the circulation and student
demand for the Phoenix.
Congress member Jim Wooten (Dist.
19) asked Cowhig and Farrer why so
many stacks of the Phoenix were in the
Phoenix office in the Student Union.
Wooten then passed photographs taken
in mid- February, he said, to other
congress members. The photographs
show stacks of back issues in the
Phoenix office, he said.
Cowhig said that Phoenix staff
members were responsible for distribu
tion, and some did not distribute their
share of the publication.
Congress member Steve Griffin ( Dist.
5) moved that the entire congress go
downstairs to the Phoenix office and
see the stacked issues for themselves.
In the office, Farrer told the congress
that all 5,000 issues of last week's

tield. He spotted Brett Davy open at midfield and
delivered a perfect pass. Davy saw daylight and trudged
toward the Blue Devil net. Unlikely star Corey Gavitt
picks up the story. "It was a fast break. It was just
a question of who was going to slide over and pick
Brett up. My defenseman slid, and there was no
question that 1 was going to shoot the ball," Gavitt
said. "1 think (Coach Scroggs) would rather have had
one of the older guys take the shot, but now I don't
think he really minds."
Mind? Heck no.. In fact. Gavin's game-winning goal
made Scroggs look like a genius. The coach inserted
the freshman as a starter a week ago against UMBC
and Gavitt paid off with live goals and three assists
in two games. But his dart that zipped past helpless
Duke goalie Scott Schraif only 12 seconds into sudden
death was Gavin's greatest dividend to date.
The game was destined to create a hero right from
the start. Tom Haus gave UNC the early lead when
congressmen.
STAND co-chairpersons Matthew
I iedemann and Ingrid Brunk presented
4th District Rep. Bill Co bey with oer
100 proxies from UNC students. The
proxies echoed the three mam causes
ot the student lobby: disapproving of
President Reagan's Strategic Defense
Initiative, condemning first strike
weapons and calling for a comprehen
sive nuclear test ban.
Cobev was 45 minutes late for his
Phoenix were distributed. "This will be
the policy for the coming year," he said.
He also said the Phoenix now has drop
boxes to hold the papers.
Chuck Brown (Dist. 13) asked Farrer
how he would improve student demand
for the publication.
Farrer said improving the content of
the paper and coming out regularly
would help. He also said more in-depth
reporting was needed. Cowhig said that
building up the staff would build up
readership.
Wooten proposed a cut in printing
and publicity by $11,112, exactly half
of the Phoenix's request for that
category.
"Until you can build up a readership,
1 think we should cut the issues down,"
he said, adding that the Phoenix should
get more advertising to cut some of its
costs.
Paul Winter (Dist. 17) said area
businesses did not advertise because
they knew that Phoenix readership was
low. He criticized the Phoenix for
"wasted space" in the paper's layout
with large photographs and art draw
ings that could be used for more articles.
"After five years of trying to get off
the ground, this paper is not being
read," Griffin said. "I think now they
have to bring us the results before we
give them more money."
Lane Matthews (Dist. 14) said the
congress should either cut the Phoenix
totally or fund it. "Letting them go
downhill slowly isn't right," he said.
Patton's amendment was accepted
after an amemdment by Ben Burroughs

appointment with the students and
declined to discuss the disarmament
problem in depth. Tiedemann said.
"I was a little dismayed with Cobey's
lack of command of the issues," he said,
while emphasizing that the meeting was
not hostile.
Tiedemann and Brunk said their
arguments for limiting SD1 funding and
mandating nuclear test limitations were
rejected by Cobey. The congressman
did agree to review a law prohibiting
(Dist. 20) to cut printing and publicity
by $3,864 failed.
The congress voted to give the
Undergraduate Art Association (UAA)
$200 on an amendment by Brian Sipe
(Dist. 14).
UAA did not receive any funding in
its Finance Committee Budget hearing.
Beasley said its members are primarily
art students and it seemed to be an
"academic faction" of the art depart
ment. Sipe and some other congress
members agreed that since the UAA was
open to all undergraduate and graduate
students and seeks to increase art
awareness on campus, then the congress
should allocate funds.
The congress also voted not to cut
the $1,000 requested by the Executive
Branch to help fund some Campus Y
volunteer programs.
Beasley said the Executive Branch
was "redirecting to get Campus Y the
funds they were denied."
Campus Y co-president Rudi
Colloredo-Mansfeld said the Y ran into
some problems with fund-raisers this
year. "We need to secure the volunteer
programs now, but the $1,000 won't be
spent until next semester."
He said the money would be used
for volunteer programs the Campus Y
sponsors such as the Big Buddy
program, help at a local nursing home
and work with juvenile delinquents.
"It is bad policy and bad precedent
for the Executive Branch to bail out
student organizations," Brad Torgan
(Dist. 4) said.

he stole the ball in front of his own net and raced
the length of the field to score only 44 seconds into
the game. Duke retaliated two minutes later with two
goals only 55 seconds apart from leading scorer Peter
Rubin. The Blue Devil goals served notice that years
of humiliation were over. UNC wouldn't lead again
until it was time to shake hands.
