The UNC Board of Trustees
refused to comment on the case of
graduate student and campus activist
Dale McKinley after members of the
Chapel Hill Coalition for the Free
dom to Dissent (CFD) confronted the
board at its Friday meeting.
After hearing the demands and
going into a closed session, the board
unanimously passed a resolution to
decline to comment further and to
defend and support the First Amend
ment rights of all persons.
At the meeting, Ken Sandler, a
graduate student and CFD member,
read an open letter condemning the
board's handling of the McKinley
case and accusing board members of
denying McKinley a fair trial because
of a BOT resolution passed last spring
concerning student activists. CFD
members believe the BOT is stifling
freedom of expression on campus,
Sandler said.

Funds from UNC trademark royal
ties will be transferred to the Student
Aid Office for student scholarships,
according to a resolution passed by
the Board of Trustees at their Friday
meeting.
When the trademark licensing
program was created in 1982, 50
percent of the money was intended
for athletic department scholarships
and 50 percent for the Student Aid
Office. While the athletic department
has been using its half of the money
for its intended purpose, an oversight
caused the other half to go to an
unrestricted endowment fund instead
of the Student Aid Office.
"The intentions were there, but
there was a breakdown in actions,"
Stuart Hathaway said. Hathaway is
the executive assistant for Students
for Educational Access (SEA), the
Both gave other reasons for the
gradual decrease in the number of
people shopping downtown,
including:
B lack of available parking because
students are filling municipal lots;
B increased building and develop
ment outside the town; and
9 increased competition from the
Student Stores.
The misperceptions of town resi
dents also have hurt , downtown
businesses, Julian said.
"Local people just dont come
down here because they believe there
is no parking and no variety of
going to deal with as their suppliers."
If the contract had been with the
University, it would have required
that all area pizza businesses be
allowed to submit bids or estimates
of how much the service would cost,
Antle said.
Officials considered companies'
liability insurance and health and
sanitation ratings in making the
decision, Dux said. Domino's 30
minute guarantee, national image and
resources in the area gave it the edge.
"We wanted someone that would
portray the same image as Carolina

McKinley walked out on his Grad
uate Student Court trial Oct. 20
because the court would not allow
him to submit evidence against the
CIA as part of his defense.
McKinley was brought before the
court on four charges: obstructing the
normal operations of the University
during a Feb. 23 incident at the
University Motor Inn and obstruc
tion, trespassing and disorderly
conduct at an April 15 demonstration
in Hanes Hall.
The CFD letter referred to a
resolution which called anti-CIA
protesters a "bad lot" guilty of
committing "violent, terrorist acts."
The resolution written by trustee
John Pope was issued on Feb. 26.
The student court appellate process
stipulates that appeals would be
heard first by an appeals committee,
then go to the chancellor. A further
appeal most likely would go to the
BOT.
Because the appellate process could
possibly include the BOT, the board
has violated McKinley's right to an

by the Downtown Association, there

prejudiced the case against him,
according to CFD members.
The prepared CFD statement
contained four demands:
d "that the BOT respect the due
process rights of the defendants
enumerated in the Student Honor
Code";
a "that the BOT refrain from
meddling in the affairs of Student
Honor Court and attempting to
prejudice the outcome of the trial
"that the BOT and chancellor
routinely submit all questionable
policies to members of the University
community for review and provide a
forum wherein student and faculty
criticism of these policies may be
heard"; and
a "that Chancellor (Paul) Hardin

and ... on the right to peaceable

way," she said.
Student Body President Kevin
Martin said he was pleased with the
BOT's reaction to the resolution. The
trustees passed the resolution
unanimously and with very little
discussion, which shows a "pretty
good level of trust between the
students and the trustees," Martin
said.
The trustees probably remembered
the original purpose of the funds from
the licensing program, Martin said,
and were unaware that the Student
Aid office has not had access to the
money.

Julian said.
"Downtown Chapel Hill is the
center of the University, but it is also
the center of town and should cater
to the whole community," he said.
Giradin agreed that a successful
downtown depended upon the retail
mix.
"It's sad when you have to make
a decision to face the reality of the
situation," she said.
"Something has to be done, and
done soon, before downtown Chapel

should have the opportunity to use
the meal card."
But the service is not excluding any
other pizza businesses from operating
on campus, Dux said.
"Anybody can still deliver on
campus; they're not excluded from
campus," he said. "All we're doing
is including Domino's in the pro
grams we're running on campus."
Not all pizza deliverers agreed that
the service would hurt their business.
"Our prices will always beat them
no matter what they do, Ted
Haughn, manager of Hungry How
ie's, said. "You pay our low price now
instead of theirs later. We're going
to go on as we usually do."
