What would Homecoming be with
out a Homecoming Queen coronation
at halftime of the big football game?

This year's selection process is
underway, and the field has been nar
rowed to eight candidates from the
senior class. Students can vote on
Thursday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the
Pit, outside the Campus Y building and
at Lenoir and Chase Halls.
In order to cast a vote, students must
present their identification card and
semester registration card. The IDs will
be marked to avoid repeat voters.
Bronwen Griffith, vice president of
the Carolina Athletic Association
(CAA), is the chairwoman for the
Homecoming Queen selection proc
ess. She said that 23 applications were
received, and the CAA narrowed the
field to 16. A committee of four judges
interviewed the 16 candidates and se
lected the eight finalists.
'The decisions were based on schol
arship, service to the University, char
acter and the essay on the application
about change in the University," Grif
fith said.
Posters for the candidates will be
displayed around campus will not in
clude pictures, following a practice
started last year. The posters will in-

"It should be an honor for a woman
who has acheived academically, and it
should not be based on her looks,"
Griffith said.
The eight finalists are all very in
volved individuals, Griffith said. The
one crowned queen will represent the
University and crown next year's queen.

Movement (BSM) and Alpha Kappa
Alpha (AKA) sorority, Tonya Blanks

Nixon said. "We really did like Dr.
Monteith. We're glad we had a voice."
- Monteith was out of town and could
not be reached for comment.
Monteith will take over Poulton's
position Sunday and assume his duties
next week, Reid said. Monteith has
already resigned as dean of engineer
ing. Poulton will then begin a six-month
leave of absence, in which he will re
tain his faculty title in addition to the
title of chancellor emeritus, Reid said.
She was not aware of Poulton's plans
after his leave is effective.
Poulton could not be reached for
comment.
Monteith's appointment came just
as the search for a permanent successor
to Poulton formally began.
