Faculty concerned atoont leadership in School off Education
By BARBARA LINN
Staff Writer
In the wake of a report criticizing
the School of Education, faculty
members said they are divided in their
support for the school's
administration.
Although the task force report,
issued in June 1987, criticized the
organization and administration of
the school, the school's dean, Frank
Brown, was reappointed to a three
year term in January by University
Provost Samuel Williamson.
The task force was made up of
faculty members at the School of
Education and from other liberal arts
schools within UNC. The report

Although students may have
thought the 11 -year tradition had
sizzled out, the Chapel Hill Town
Council voted unanimously Monday
to give the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity
a special noise permit for its annual
outdoor Burnout party.
Town manager David Taylor told
the council that he supported giving

Students can vote in today's runoff
election to fill several campus offices
whose outcomes weren't decided in
last Tuesday's election.
The top two finishers in last

recommended changes in the organ
ization of the school and in the
leadership role of the dean.
"The committee recommends that
the dean of the school be active and
aggressive in articulating a vision for
the school that sets priorities, inspires
excellence, and develops collegiality."
The report also recommended that
the dean provide leadership in faculty
research and development activities
and develop relationships with
alumni.
David Lillie, School of Education
faculty chairman, said the report was
not a direct attack on Brown, the
school's present dean.

A warrant for Futrell's arrest was

But Lillie said he thought faculty
members disagreed about Brown's
ability to meet the leadership require

"IVe talked to the majority of the
faculty, and I'd say it's probably a

Brown).

brought students out to enjoy the sunshine.
Last year council members also
said they were concerned that the
event caused parking, litter and
vandalism problems and lacked
adequate restroom facilities and
security for surrounding areas.
Burnout organizers began working
with town staff last fall to address
the major concerns about an outdoor
event held at the Finley Road fra
ternity house. Specific plans have
been worked out for parking and
allegedly obtained on March 2, 1987.
Futrell was Delta Sigma Phi
president from March 1987 to Jan

Washburn said Monday.
Futrell was released on $6,000
unsecured bond Thursday and made
his first court appearance Friday.
A probable cause hearing is set for
March 9.

20 percent of students to vote in
today's election, as opposed to the
23 percent who voted last Tuesday.
"There are fewer candidates, and
the CGLA issue (referendum) isn't on

a lot of people don't even realize
there's a runoff election."

Brown also said he does not feel
the report was a direct attack on the
school's present leadership because
the provost was reviewing other
professional schools at UNC at the
same time.
Brown said he does not feel a lack
of faculty support for his
administration.
"I get a feeling of support, consid

years," Brown said. "Prior to my

The CIA has canceled its recruiting
session scheduled at the UNC School
of Law Tuesday and has decided not
to recruit on campus this semester,
Donald Boulton, dean of student
affairs, said Monday.
The CIA had planned to interview
tomorrow at the law school. Instead,
the interviews will be conducted at
an off-campus location, Boulton said.
The cancellation was due in part
to the protests of members of the CIA
Action Committee, some of whom
have been fasting to protest the
recruitment, Boulton said. But the
cancellation was not a result of
intervention by University adminis
trators, he said.
Chancellor Christopher Fordham
said Sunday that he did not believe
it would be appropriate to cancel the
CIA visit because it would comprom
ise the freedom of the campus.
"It is the business of the chancellor
to protect liberty and not to com
promise it," Fordham said. "I am not
judging the people who come here."
have reviewed the plans for Burnout
and said they do not oppose the event.
The golf course sponsors an annual
tournament on the same Friday as
the Burnout event, but Burnout
organizers have delayed the party's
proposed starting time in order to
accommodate the golf tournament.
The fraternity has also made plans
to have traffic and parking monitored
on roads running through the golf
course.
UNC faculty criticize
system's drug policy
By MARK FOLK
Senior Writer
The Faculty Council passed a
resolution Friday condemning the
Board of Governors system-wide
drug policy for being too punitive.
The penalties outlined in the
BOG system-wide drug policy,
adopted in January, limit the
power of campus-level administra
tors, the resolution said.
Craig Calhoun, associate pro
fessor of sociology and author of
the faculty resolution, said he
thinks the policy should be more
educational.
"This policy promotes punish
ment and retribution instead of
educational needs," Calhoun said.
"It also reduces the authqrity that
administrators should have."
The BOG policy, which affects
all 16 campuses in the UNC
system, calls on each university to
develop its own drug policy,
subject to minimum standards.

it is," Wileman said. "He (Brown) is
a very decent chap, but I think we
need a little more than that. He wants
us to be happy and he wants the
provost to happy. Those objectives
are at odds.
"Something has to give, and we
need a leader to make things give.
They wish the School of Education
would get its act together. If the dean
can do that, (that's) anybody's guess."

the mission of the school and decreas

enrolled in the school.

CIA recruiters called Kenneth
Broun, dean of the School of Law,
late Friday afternoon to cancel their
visit, Boulton said. Because Broun
was sick on Friday, no one was told
about the call until today when Broun
told Boulton, he said.
"I don't know for a fact why they
were motivated to change their
minds, but usually when there have
been anti-CIA protests on campus
they decide to interview off campus,"
Boulton said.
The CIA made the decision to
interview off campus independently
without University influence
despite the requests of the fasters,
Boulton said.

Mahoney said that Highway 54
and Finley Road will be roped off

Buses will run to four pick-up points

people to the party.

The minimum penalty for stu

probation for a period to be

The council's resolution also
claims the policy neglects "the fact
that the campus already had an
effective and appropriate drug
policy."

had a specific drug policy, there
