"Our purpose is to raise awareness pf human rights abuse in the Uni versity, in the community, in the nation and in the world," said Debbie Rzasa, co-chairwoman of Human Rights Week. "The second purpose is to educate people on these abuses and how widespread they are. The third purpose is to motivate people to act on them."

Annette Harmon, campus directory coordinator, said the phone books will be distributed on campus as soon as possible. I hey are being printed this week," Harmon said. "They should be arriving on campus some time next week." The directory has been delayed because many changes had to be made in it, Harmon said. Changes included telephone numbers, individual listings, titles, and campus and personal infor mation, she said. Robert Peake, associate direc tor of the physical plant, said the volume of necessary information makes it difficult to get the permanent directories out early in the school year. ; "There's more to it than just the students' numbers," he said. There are numbers of faculty, staff and organizations too. There's a great deal of data that goes in. Our aim is to have it out est raise awameimess of IhiLomaini nglhts oye said. The event should cover approx imately 30 issues. The Human Rights Week commit tee tried to balance the topics of the speakers based on national, state and local levels, she said. Campus Y is responsible for raising all the money needed for the week, Rzasa said. Although the University allots the organization $5,000, the funds are divided among the 30 Campus Y committees. "We rely on departments, the provost, the Frank Porter Graham fund and other outside sources for donations," she said.

Young will give a broad overview of human rights, said Vipul Nishawala, member of the Human Rights Week committee. earlier, but that's not always possible." Because last year's directory arrived early, students believe the directory is especially late this year, Harmon said. The preliminary campus direc tories are published so students can have a reference at the begin ning of the school year while information for the permanent directory is being compiled, Har mon said. "The temporaries are done so the students will have something to refer to as quickly as we can get the information," she said. "The students need something to refer to because when they get back on campus (after summer), last year's phone book is obsolete." The campus directory does not cost the University any money, Peake said. "It doesn't cost anything because the University Directory (a division of Village Printing Company) prints the directory at no cost to the University," he said. "They make their money on advertising." Students who want their number changed in the directory should contact the University Registrar's office, Harmon said.

"Bush wants to emphasize his continuity with the Reagan admin istration," said David Clinton, a visiting fellow at the Miller Center for Public Affairs at the University of Virginia. "At the same time, he wants a degree of change. He is in charge now." Bush announced Wednesday that Committee endorses, proposal By JENNIFER WING Staff Writer The Black Cultural Center Facil ities Planning Committee endorsed the Black Student Movement prop osal for a new cultural center Wed nesday, although many changes need to be made - before the proposal is presented to the Board of Trustees (BOT), committee officials said. "What we (the BCC Facilities Planning Committee) are attempting to do is to develop some guidelines and some projections that can be taken to the BOT meeting in December," said Robert Eubanks, chairman of the Board of Trustees and committee member.

Later that evening, a Human Rights Week Concert will be held featuring The Popes, Dillon Fence, Chapter Two, Teasing the Korean and other bands.

Schedules can be picked up at the Campus Y for places and times of the events. former treasury secretary and cam paign chairman James Baker III would be his new secretary of state and said he would announce his other choices in the next few months. Bush wants to show his individ uality by his choices, said Thad Beyle, political science professor at UNC. The Bush Cabinet will probably be younger than Reagan's Cabinet, he said. The new president will look for moderate Republicans like himself who can also satisfy conservatives and get along with the Democratic Congress, Clinton said. The Heritage Foundation, a con servative think tank in Washington, D.C., expects the Cabinet to be and the committee has been forced to examine the plans very carefully, Eubanks said. "All of the students in the future will pay for any mistakes the com mittee makes now," he said. 'The proposal the BSM presented to the committee gave three primary reasons why a new cultural center is needed, said Tonya Blanks, BSM vice president. One of goals for the new BCC would be to serve as a focal point for black cultural expression and be open for both the black and non-black community, she said. Another objective stated in the proposal is for the BCC to act as a minority recruiting tool and to retain Nymmber of black facyity JecoTase By JENNY CLONINGER Assistant University Editor Black faculty retention and recruit ment has not been successful at UNC in 1987-88, according to the 1988 UNC Affirmative Action Office's Minority and Female Presence Report. The University has had problems hiring and retaining black faculty, the report said. During the 1987-88 period, three blacks were selected for available faculty positions. During the same period, six blacks resigned their positions. University administrators and faculty members interviewed this week said black graduate students and faculty members are in demand all over the United States, and UNC is increasing its recruitment efforts. "We are always recommending to deans and chairs of departments to look out for minority faculty members at other campuses," said Dennis O'Connor, acting provost. "We are going to have to make an enhanced effort. "Minority faculty are very much in Human Rights Week Schedule Sunday, Nov. 13 4 p.m. - Cultural and Religious Oppression in Tibet Tenzin Tethong, president of the International Campaign for Tibet and U.S. representative for the Dalai Lama, will speak.

Secretary of the Treasury Nicolas Brady, Secretary of Education Lauro Cavazos and Attorney General Richard Thornburgh should continue in their posts, said Joel Rosch, assistant professor of political science and public administration at N.C. State University. Bush recommended Brady and Cavazos to Reagan with the idea that they would stay on if he were elected, Beyle and Clinton said. Sen. John Tower is likely to be minorities on campus. The third justification for the creation of the BCC would be to create a relationship with the sur rounding community, Blanks said. The committee examined the pos sible dimensions of the new center and the amount of space needed, Eubanks said. The proposal requests a maximum area of 13,000 square feet, which is different from the original 8,548 square feet requested in a February, 1986 proposal. The dimensions for the center were altered because the planning commit tee was not sure if the new BCC would include an auditorium or how much space exactly would be needed, Eubanks said. Waters demand across the country. There is a lot of competitive pressure not just in salaries, but in working conditions libraries, labs, supplies, secretaries, and money for travel and continuing education." A nationwide shortage of black graduate students is part of the problem, officials said. "One of the most discouraging aspects is the lack of graduate students for most of our professions and disciplines. The people we would recruit are simply not there," said Garland Hershey, vice chancellor of health affairs. Although Hershey called recruiting graduate students a "discouragingly slow process," UNC is making some steps towards attracting black grad uate students, O'Connor said. A summer program started last year that brings minority college students to UNC between their junior and senior years, he said.

New York Rep. Jack Kemp; Dan Evans, the retiring senator from Washington; New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu, Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander and former baseball com missioner Peter Ueberroth are other possibilities for Cabinet appoint ments, Beyle said. Because of the scandals and indict ments of officials in Reagan's admin istration, Bush is expected to screen his appointees carefully. "He doesn't want to be tainted with a hint of his not being concerned with ethics," Clinton said. for BCC There was no opposition to the proposal within the committee, Eubanks said. "We want to try to get it (the proposal) to the Board of Trustees as quickly as we can," he said. Donald Boulton, vice chancellor and dean of student affairs, will make the recommendation to the BOT at the Dec. 9 meeting. Kenneth Perry, president of the BSM, said he expects the proposal to be approved. If the proposal is approved by the BOT, the BSM will have to wait to take action until other departments of the University approve the plans, Perry said. See BCC page 2 4
