Human Rights Week 1992 coordina
tors say they hope this week's activities
will inspire students to take an active
part in helping to end violations of indi
vidual freedoms around the world.
Human Rights Week 1992 officially
will kick off today at noon in the Pit
with an opening address by Donald
Boulton, vice chancellor for student
affairs. Boulton's speech will be fol
lowed by a performance by
ModernExtension, a campus dance
troupe.
Human Rights Week will be high
lighted by events about diverse aspects
of human rights sponsored by various
campus organizations. The goal of the
week is to increase awareness and ac
tivism for the basic rights of human
beings through educational program
ming. Ed Chaney, the Campus Y's Human
Rights Week Committee director, said
he hoped the week would increase hu
man rights awareness and get people
thinking about human rights.
"We try not to define human rights;
that's something for everybody to dis
cuss," Chaney said. "Every program
defines human rights from that
organization's perspective."

second-degree rape, reports stated.
Second-degree rape is a felony de

weapon. The definition also includes
sexual intercourse that occurs when
the victim physically is helpless, in
cluding being unconscious, mentally
disabled or drunk.
Kline said he could not comment
on the details of the case because his
attorney, whom he would not name,
had instructed him not to discuss it. ;

The plethora of leaves on campus

But officials are not holding their

Budget problems have continued to
plague the University system since the
General Assembly permanently reduced
budget outlays for the University by
$17 million in 1990-91. Almost $10

'Sierte5 letter probe
By Anna Griffin
University Editor
The attorney for black cultural center
Director Margo Crawford said Sunday
that he might ask Orange-Chatham Dis
trict Attorney Carl Fox to investigate
the threatening letters recently received
by leaders on both sides of the move
ment for a free-standing BCC.
The letters, which were signed by a
group calling itself the "Brothers of
Sierte" and "1992, Sierte," were sent to
BCC advocates Crawford, Black Stu
dent Movement President Michelle
Thomas and Black Awareness Council
co-founder Tim Smith.
Alan McSurely, who also represents
University Police officer Keith Edwards
and the UNC housekeepers in addition
to Crawford, said Sunday that he was
planning to send copies of the three
letters to Fox for further investigation.
Fox could not be reached for com
ment Sunday.
McSurely said that he originally
planned to include the letters as part of
a grievance yet to be filed by Crawford
during which 6 million Jews perished.
The initial night of violence against
Germany's Jewish community was
spurred by the Nov. 7, 1938, assassina
tion of Ernst vom Rath, the third secre
tary of the German Embassy in France.
Upon learning that his parents had been
deported from Germany, Herschel
Grynszpan, a Polish-Jewish student in
Paris, shot vom Rath, whom he mistook
for the ambassador.
The Nazi press blamed the Jews of
Germany for the assassination, and as
revenge, Propaganda Minister Joseph
Goebbels coordinated a nationwide
lion temporarily was cut.
This fiscal year, the budget was
slashed by $7.3 million in targeted re
versions, or temporary cuts.
Wayne Jones, vice chancellor for
business and finance, said that the bud
get situation was not getting worse but
that it's not getting better either.
"Things are about the same as last
year," he said. "We knew going in they
would be about the same, so we planned
accordingly. That's not to say that ev
erything is well and good it's not."
Jones said the $100,000 decrease in
the budget cut was appropriated for
salary increases.
In the past several years, the Univer
sity has had to make additional mid
year cuts, but Jones said the University
would probably get by this year without

but that upon consideration, he decided
the letters were coming from outside
the University community.
"These letters definitely came from
the outside," McSurely said. "They may
have been typed up at the University,
but the original drafts came from out
side Chapel Hill."
The letters could have been sent by a
right-wing federal or state agency,
McSurely said. 'This was the way things
were done in the 1960s," he said.
The Brothers of Sierte first made
themselves known when they leaked to
the press a copy of a memo sent to the
chancellor's office by journalism Pro
fessor Chuck Stone. In the memo, Stone
recounted a heated meeting he had with
BCC supporters Crawford, Smith, Tho
mas, Harold Woodard, assistant dean of
the General College, and Harold
Wallace, UNC vice chancellor for Uni

thereafter, the German government lev

having to make more serious reduc

year," he said.
Jones said he held out hope that the
budget crisis soon would take a turn for
the better. "We are hoping things will
pick up next year," he said.
Provost Richard McCormick said
budget problems were persistent across
the nation. "All colleges have been hurt
in recent years by budget struggles," he
said.
McCormick said the budget crises
were making basic functions like teach

institutions of higher learning, not just

UNC-system programs

Quality education always has been
a hallmark of the UNC system. .
In 1991, the N.C. General Assem
bly, hoping to harness the system's
scholastic talent and to transfer it to
the N.C. public schools, established
the Center for Educational Leader
ship. '
Built to promote interaction be
tween the University and statewide
public schools, the CEL joined exist
ing programs being implemented by
the UNC School of Education to pro
vide increased student opportunities,
teaching internships and faculty de
velopment. ; Jo Harris, director of instruction for
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools,
said she thought that the collaborat ion
was beneficial for both the local school
system and the University and that
UNC students whom she had super
vised in the local school district al
ways had been eager to help.
"We're working together to make
sure that students have a good experi
ence," she said. "We all benefit from
this partnership."

McSurely said that he believed the
Stone memo might have been leaked by
a University student or faculty member
but that the other Sierte letters were sent
by an outside source.
The state constitution prohibits "se-I
cret political organizations" like the
Sierte, McSurely said. I
, "(The law) originally referred to the
Ku Klux Klan," he said. "(North Caroi
lina) basically had to put that in the'
constitution to get back into the Union
after the Civil War." i
Stone said the letter he received was
not as threatening as those sent to Fuse-j
Hall and Harris, neither of whom were1
available for comment Sunday. ',
Stone said he favored investigation
into the letters by federal or state au

"We plan as well as we can," he said,
"All departments are experiencing dift

system was working with limited funds,
