4AThe Daily Tar HeelMonday, August 19, 1991 Housing By Tabitha Logan Staff Writer The three largest residence hall areas have been divided and are now led by new directors, said Al Calarco, associ ate housing director. The Scott Residence College, Morehead Confederation and Olde Campus areas each were divided into two areas in the beginning of July, cre ating a total of three new areas. The Department of University Hous ing broke down the areas after an inter nal study concluded they were unmanageable, Calarco said. "We're breaking them down because the area directors supervised too many people," he said. Calarco said the following changes were made by the housing department: iCarmichael and Whitehead will form tone new area, leaving Avery, Teague ppanlrfng By Lauren Chesnut taff Writer As of July 1 , local N.C. school boards i decide whether to allow spanking, ttnks in large part to the effoits of tlklents in a UNC-CH political science course.

Henderson Residence College with Alexander, Conner and Winston dormitories will split away from the Morehead Confed eration, leaving Cobb and Joyner in that area. Olde Campus will be divided into Upper Quad, consisting of Manly, Ruffin, Grimes and Mangum, and Lower Quad, with Aycock, Graham, Stacy, Everett and Lewis. Housing Director Wayne Kuncl said the housing department made the ad ministrative changes to benefit students and staff . "It has to do more w ith depart ment organization and staffing," he said. Calarco said although those areas had three great directors, the areas were too dependent on them. "If they left, it would be hard for a new person to replace them," he said. "There have been a variety of combi nations in the past, and we're going back to a previous arrangement in di legislation "I knew what corporal punishment meant in the dictionary, but ... I didn't even know it was legal down in North Carolina because it's illegal (in New York), and I thought it was just the most archaic, medieval torture device; it seemed so barbaric to me," senior Chris tina Frohock said of her decision to work on the bill.

An other director wanted to try managing a larger area, so the areas were combined, he said. Because the Residence Hall Asso ciation, the overall governing body of the dormitories, divides campus hous ing into different areas, its leaders will have to decide how to handle the area changes, Kuncl said. RHA will keep its structure accord ing to the old area designations, said Scott Peeler, RHA president. "We aren't changing our structure for two reasons," Peeler said. One rea son is that too much time and energy would have to be spent amending the RHA constitution, he said. "This time backed by study of the legislature by researching bills previously introduced. The class chose three bills to support in the Gen eral Assembly. Susan Eichler is another student who chose to follow the public school spank ing issue. "North Carolina was the only state that didn't allow local school boards to bancorporalpunishment,"Eichlersaid. "Prisons couldn't use it, mental institu tions couldn't, but people could spank our children."

Another reason is that dividing cer tain areas would make those areas fi nancially weaker. Peeler said. "That doesn't serve the residents' needs." The only problem that the RHA an ticipates is with the division of Scott College, Peeler said. For housing de partment purposes, it will be two areas with separate area directors. For RHA, there will be only one governor repre senting both areas. "The answer is to maintain commu nication with at least one if not both directors so as not to leave people out," Peeler said. Calarco said five new area directors have been recruited nationally to fill positions as area directors. "We've hired a very talented group of people," he said. students The UNC students faced a formi dable challenge, though, she said. "No one really thought it had a chance of passing because it's such a touchy I don't mean that as a pun subject in North Carolina." The five students who worked on the spanking bill began a series of trips to Raleigh, first to find a sponsor for their bill. Sen. Howard Lee, D-Orange, was persuaded to introduce the bill. Lee said he hesitated at first. "Frankly, I didn't see it as being one of those problem areas that needed immediate See BILL, page 11A Higher course pack prices anticipated By Jon Whlsenant Staff Writer Course pack prices are rising while their contents are shrinking because of an April court decision that requires professors to receive permission from copyright owners before photocopying fee for the first a a Inc. 1 ' i Way .

A U.S. District Court's April 4 deci sion reinterpreted the Fair Use Clause of the 1976 Federal Copyright Law. "It used to be that you could photo copy a small portion of a book or jour nal under the idea of fair use," said Harry Watson, professor of history. "Now you have to get permission for virtually everything, and that means that these people are in the position to charge money for their permission." The new rules will affect the price of course packs in two ways, Watson said. Informal OutdoxDiniiis . InOurNewLccation '. Restaurant Bar Cafe Entrees starting at 8.95: : La Residence 202 W.

"First, the process of writing and asking for permission is time-consuming and expensive the copy shops charge for it, and that cost has to be passed on to the students," he said. "Second, whatever fee that the copy right owner charges has also got to be passed on to the students." Perm Corbett, manager and co-owner of Universal Printing, said prices could increase dramatically. "You could be looking at what was a $ 1 5 book that book now could easily be between 35 and 45 dollars," Corbett said. However, the amount of royalty varies among publishers, he added. Terry Boren, president of Copytron, said he would not predict as huge an increase in prices, but he did expect the use and size of course packs to droj). "We are anticipating approximately a 50 percent reduction in the total num ber of packets that will be coming in, and maybe a 50 percent thinning of the packets themselves," he said. "That may be a little extreme, but we're sort of prepared for the worst." The new copyright rules also may affect the way some courses are taught, Boren said. "The publishers are making it diffi cult for all these instructors at UNC to teach their courses through their inac tion, slow action or outrageous fees," he said. History professor John Semonche agreed. "You're moving away from material that you feel, perhaps, will be most pertinent and most valuable sim ply because cost makes it prohibitive," he said.
