They do something about them. The North Carolina Student Legis lature (NCSL) allows students to learn more about the legislative process through participation in a model Gen eral Assembly, and it provides the av enues through which the ideas may come to life. Jim Hunt, former N.C. Governor and NCSL alumnus, said the NCSL "capi talizes on one of North Carolina's most valuable resources our youth. The Student Legislature increases awareness of our state's problems and potential." Sharon Campen, NCSL state pub licity chairwoman and UNC chapter vice delegate, said, "NCSL wants to be the voice of the students, because we are the voice of the future. The point of our main goal is to improve self, state and world." Students involved in NCSL, the oldest active state student legislature in the country, participate in debates on reso lutions related to certain policies. NCSL members from across the state attend a five-day Annual Session in Raleigh where bills written by members are debated and ratified. At this annual meeting, the NCSL splits into a bi cameral body. Each college and university sends two senators and as many as 18 repre sentatives. When the bill is approved by both the NCSL House and Senate, it is then presented to the North Carolina Legislature. NCSL members also participate in lobbying. A liaison committee mandates the resolution or proposal to someone who would be most affected by it and someone who would support the student legislature by taking the resolution se riously. Campen said the Speaker of the House, Daniel Blue, was very support Campus Calendar WEDNESDAY 2 p.m. PC SAS session 4 is in 02 Manning until 3:15 p.m. 3 p.m. A Walk-In Exam Prep Clinic will be today until 4 p.m. in 104 Phillips Annex by Dr. Victoria Faherty and Christine Kelly. 3:20 p.m. "Tidy Heads and Hands: African American Midwives in the South," a lecture by Gertrude Fraser, of UVa, will be in 308 Alumni Building. 3:30 p.m. FREE TAX HELP! in 222 New Carroll today until5 p.m. Call 932-3361 for more information.

However, due to the legislative process, they are usually not passed until a year after the Student Legislature has submitted them. Virginia Hewitt, the University NCSL chapter president, is in charge of recruiting and fund raising, as well as publicity. "The whole delegation worked hard this year," she said. "My effort would not be successful without an enthusiastic group of people to lead." Becca Norton, the State Planning Committee vice chairwoman, said the committee was responsible for evalu ating the spirit, direction and organiza tion of NCSL. She coordinated the Inter-Council meeting which was co hosted by Campbell University and UNC in November. "It's the happiest I've been since I've been in college," Norton said. "NCSL is the best student organization I've been involved with." At the annual assembly this year, the UNC chapter of the NCSL won several awards. Hewitt won the Best Delegate Chairperson of the Year, and Norton won Best New Delegate of the Year. The University won the Best Bill from a Large School award for a bill that would raise the taxes in the $50,000-and-up bracket by 1 percent. This money would be used to create a higher edu cation trust fund that could be used by the Board of Governors with approval from the General Assembly. This bill was proposed in response to the budget cuts in the University system. The bills are written by students. Members must submit the topic they wish to present in September. By No vember a rough draft is due, and in January the bill must be completed. The final draft is due in February and is debated in the Student Legislature's Annual Session. If the bill is approved, it will be submitted to the N.C. Legis lature. The UNC chapter of the NCSL holds are invited to attend.
