Board of Governors names
UNC-system acting secretary
By PATRICE JONES
Staff Writer
The UNC Board of Governors has
named David "D.G." Martin to serve
as acting secretary for the UNC
system, administration officials said
Thursday.
Martin, 48, replaces John
Kennedy, who served as UNC-system
secretary from 1972 until he retired
last December 31.
Martin will serve until the presi
dent's search committee decides on
a permanent replacement.
UNC President CD. Spangler
recommended Martin for the acting
position. Spangler said Thursday he
was impressed with Martin because
he had many of the same qualities
that Kennedy had.
He has the ability to get board
members involved in the UNC sys
tem, Spangler said.
"The Board of Governors and the
Board of Trustees need to be
informed to make decisions about the
university," Spangler said.
The basic role of the UNC-system
secretary is to serve as a liaison
between the president's staff, the
Board of Governors and the Boards
and Campbell College, centered on
her husband's campaign platform.
Sen. Gore focuses on the Southern
states for the bulk of his support,
Gore said.
"I don't think we are going to hear
too much about New Hampshire
after this (the March 8 Super Tuesday
primary)," she said.
Sen. Gore is emphasizing his
knowledge about defense and foreign
policy issues and his liberal social
stands in his campaign, Gore said.

chairman, said Thursday Martin will
not be a secretary in the sense of only
being a stenographer.
"He was selected by Spangler for
his strong organizational skills, his
integrity and his interest in public
service," Carson said.
Martin said he took the job because
he thought it would be a challenge.
"The secretary of the university has
the opportunity to work closer than
anyone else with the Board of Gov
ernors and the executive staff of all
the other campuses," Martin said.
The opportunity to help shape
higher education policy for the state

About 100 students staged an
"eat-in" in the Pit Thursday
afternoon to show support for
CIA recruitment and opposition
to student funding of the Carolina
Gay and Lesbian Association.
The "eat-in" was in reaction to
recent events such as a fast by
students protesting CIA recruit

homosexual activists outside Sen.

a referendum that indicated most
students oppose student funding
of the CGLA, organizers said.
Students ate pizza and dis

are worth dying for. Support the

defund the CGLA," and "Stay in

"Every time my parents turn on

Sophomore Andy House, an

A visit to

Although Chancellor Christopher
Fordharn admitted he has the power
to prevent the CIA from recruiting
at UNC, he told four students he is
unwilling to exercise that power, the
students said Thursday.
The students, who are fasting to
protest the Feb. 25 CIA visit to the
law school, said they met with
Fordham on Wednesday to discuss
the issue of CIA recruitment on
campus.
Fordham could not be reached
Thursday for comment.
Officials had said earlier that
because UNC is a state institution,
they could not discriminate among
groups that wanted to come to
campus.
The Facilities Use Policy, which
sets guidelines for the use of Univer
sity facilities, states that organizations
"I'm going to miss it here," he said.
"Hopefully this will be a promotion.
This sort of opportunity is not
presented every day."
The Smith Center presented 44
events last year, including 16 major
concerts and 11 sold-out basketball
games. Almost 1.02 million people
have attended the 72 events held since
Jan. 18, 1986, when the facility
opened.

The policy also states, "Requests

University to prevent the CIA from

"Fordham was not very receptive
to the idea of not allowing the CIA
