UNC graduate student leaders said
Thursday that a proposal to charge
all students the same fee to finance
a telephone registration system is
unfair to graduate students.
They said graduate students should
have to pay a smaller fee than
undergraduates, because they will use
the registration system less often.

Physical, moral, social and creative
courage is needed to meet the chal
lenges of the future, UNC Rhodes
Scholar Robyn Hadley said Thurs
day night during a banquet honoring
the dedication of the Katherine
Kennedy Carmichael Residence Hall.
Carmichael, who was dean of
women at UNC from 1946-72 and
associate dean of Student Affairs
from 1972-77, had this courage,
Hadley said.
The banquet opened a three-day
celebration entitled "UNC Women,
Future, Present and Past" that will
culminate in the dedication of Car

morning.

they did this afternoon."

plan to charge students a fee of $10
a year to finance the purchase.
"This system is not going to be
nearly as beneficial to graduate
students as to undergrads," said
Curtis Small, a graduate student in
biochemistry and Student Congress
representative from District 5. "The
feeling is pretty strong and pretty
pervasive that we're not getting a fair
deal.
"People say I'm against the system,

and the future," Hadley said. As a
fragile yet authoritative woman who
dared to be different, Carmichael
created a legacy in UNC's history,
Hadley said.
As the granddaughter of a share
cropper and the daughter of a teacher,
Hadley said she learned early in her
life that education was everything.
Courage is needed to find answers
and to create human resource pro
grams, so opportunities are available
for all children in North Carolina to
receive that education, she said.
She envisioned a North Carolina
of the future, illustrating that vision
with her own experiences as a black,
a woman, a North Carolinian and a
graduate of UNC. That future state,
she said, would be everything it could
"Do you have any questions?" he
asked. "Or we could just shoot a few
hoops and go home."
Smith referred to Steve Bucknall
and J.R. Reid's recent altercation in
a Raleigh nightclub.
"I have always insisted that players
are part of the student body," he said.
"They might even get in a fight like
you guys.
"But you probably wouldn't get
harassed like they would."
Smith refused to discuss his sus
pension of Reid and Bucknall from
the season-opening grudge match
against Syracuse.
Smith also refused to discuss any
specific recruiting prospects, saying
he never released the names of
recruits.

and I'm not," Small said. "I just want
a little more equitable pay scheme."
Because graduate students will use
the system less often than undergrad
uates, they shouldn't have to pay as
much for it, Small said.
"Graduate students don't have to
juggle classes in drop-add like under
grads," he said. "The majority don't
preregister, but it's so easy for grad
students to register that the system
wouldn't make that much difference."
Small protested at Wednesday's

"My greatest hope for the future
is to see a brand new type of leader
within the next two to three decades
who has never been exposed to racial
segregation or sexual discrimina
tion," she said.
"But without education, the future
leaders will be no better than previous
leaders," she said. "Courage to create
activities and alliances to decrease
illiteracy and increase college enroll

Assessments of high school players'
talent are not always accurate, he
said, repeating a story he heard from
N.C. State athletic director Jim
Valvano.
Smith said Valvano, when he was
coach at Rutgers, went to see a high
school player in Unionwood, N.J.
After watching the player, Valvano
said he couldn't compete at the
Division I level.
"His name was Julius Erving,"
Smith said.
The prospects for success in the
upcoming season are not favorable,
Smith said.
"Practice was terrible," he said. "I
wonder if we could beat anybody."

The 6,000 graduate students
account for about one-third of all
student fees, according to University
Registrar David Lanier.
Because most graduate students do
not preregister, they have to wait in

Symposium gives stuidemts
inside look at business world

Some of the nation's top exec
utives from businesses such as
Procter & Gamble, AT&T, Price
Waterhouse accounting firm and
R.J. Reynolds Tobacco USA
shared their tricks with more than
450 UNC business students
Thursday.
More than 40 executives joined
the students at the fourth annual
Business Symposium, sponsored
by the Graduate School of Bus
iness Administration.
Symposium speech 5
The symposium kicked off with
a speech by William Thompson,
a UNC alumnus and executive vice
president for worldwide accounts
at J. Walter Thompson, a multi
national "advertising agency based
in New York.
"I think this program is impor
tant to the Business School," said
Peter Topping, undergraduate
executive director of the Business
Symposium. "For the undergrad
uate students, it's an opportunity
to learn from people in the real
world what the real world is like."
He also said the symposium
provided information to help
students answer questions about
career development.
The rest of the day consisted of
three separate executive panels in
Carroll Hall.
The panels included the topics
of marketing, accounting, human
resource management, investment
banking, entrepreneurship,
finance, real estate and operations
management.

The joint University-Town Com
mittee voted 7-1 Thursday to recom
mend to the chancellor and mayor
that a land-use plan should not close
any portion of Columbia Street or
widen Pittsboro Street to more than
three lanes.
The controversial University land
use plan proposes to close a portion
of Columbia Street and widen the
two-lane Pittsboro Street to six lanes.
Widening Pittsboro Street to three
lanes is part of the Chapel Hill
Thoroughfare Plan. The plan calls for
the street to become a one-way
southbound extension through Little
Fraternity Court, across Franklin
and Rosemary streets to merge with
Airport Road. Columbia Street
would become a northbound one
way street.
"Pittsboro Street could be widened
to three lanes without acquiring any
additional private property," said
Chapel Hill Transportation Planner
David Bonk. "Assuming there is no
road extension, the street in the
current area should be widened to
plain the most about the lines, and
the system will be very beneficial to
them.
"Demand for graduate courses is
more predictable, so most don't get
closed out," he said. "They can
probably take care of their registra
tion in one phone call."
The registrars of the individual
professional schools will decide
whether to use the system, Lanier
said. Professional students would
probably register through the sys

Committee member R.D. Smith
voted against the proposal. He said
he was afraid that widening Pittsboro
Street would increase traffic and
create a need for an extension of the
street.
"I'm afraid if we recommend
widening Pittsboro Street, the com
mittee will make a case for the State
Highway Department of Transporta
tion to say the street needs to be
extended " Smith said. "I don't want
to keep building roads. I am ada
mantly against the extension of
Pittsboro Street."
The committee also discussed
closing Cameron Avenue in front of
the South Building. They reached a
consensus that the street should be
closed as a pedestrian safety measure,
but only after an impact study is
completed.
The area would be closed to
automobiles during the day and
opened to them at night, which would
shift the east-west traffic to Franklin

tem's computer terminals, rather than
by telephone, he said. ;
Once the system is operational,
using the telephone system or the
computer terminals will be the only
way to register, Lanier said.
"Everybody has to register on the
system how are they going to do
it otherwise?" he said. "It's not going
to magically appear in the computer."
