CHAPEL HILL -Questioning
minority students
from all over North Carolina
who have some Interest in the
study of law have a clearer
conception of the profession and
how to plan the future after
attending a special conference
arranged recently by the
" Student Bar Association (SBA)
at the University of North
Carolina Law School here.
The practical aspects of
gaining admittance to law
schools such as Law School
Admission Test scores, helpful
undergraduate curricula and
special programs available
were discussed with the nearly
100 black students who attended
the day-long program.
Members of the UNC Law
School faculty and of the SBA
explained the many points
information the Inquiring
students needed to have an
swered In order to make their
determinations about law
study.
"These discussions related to
admission to law school in
general and were not directed
solely to the UNC Law School,"
Robin Britt of Aaheville,
chairman of SBA's Recruitment
Committee, emphasized.
The students were en
couraged to organize Pre-Law
Clubs on the campuses of their
undergraduate schools. These
clubs, Britt explained, serve as
a useful medium of com
munication for those schools
which already have them and
make it easier to coordinate the
dissemination of information
about opportunities for minority
students to study law.
One highlight of the con
ference, a panel discussion on
"The Role of The Black Lawyer
in the Community", included
Frank Vallance Jr., of
Warrenton, outgoing president
of the North Carolina
Association of Black Lawyers;
Charles Becton, a Chapel Hill
attorney; John Scott of the
University of Virginia's ad
missions office; and Richard
Epps of Wilmington, president
of the UNC Student Body at
Chapel Hill.
Charles E. Daye of the Law
School faculty, who was the
panel moderator, noted that
there is no unanimity of
definition as to the role of the
black lawyer. Several law
schools now have courses that
apply to black problems, he
said.
"Your problems," Daye
stated, "may be not io change
the legal system but to change
society."
"We have to fight for equality
on all fronts," Becton told the
students. "Your job will be to
see that Justice is done."
Watching good lawyers in
action are learning examples
for students, according to
Becton, and he stressed
specialization.
Vallance offered the realistic

opinion that "the black lawyer
: has to be an expert at sur
viving." f v
"Don't assume that just
because you are a black lawyer
that the blacks wiU come to
you." be cautioned. "The black .
community's demands on the
black lawyer are greater than
those on the white lawyer.
Overall,' the black lawyer '
should do everything he can to
advance the cause of Ma race."
Recent figures show mat
there are about 4,000 black
lawyers In the nation, with only
one black lawyer to every 7,009
citizens In the southern states.
"There aren't any really
'good' courses in law, only hard
courses that make you think,"
UNC Law Prof. Dan Dobbs told
one group of students. "Maybe
you will want to look for those
hard courses In your colleges to
help In your preparation for law
school. You can learn anything
when you get the underlying
skills learned In law."
PTof. Dobbs outlined the first
year of law study which In
cludes courses in torts, con
tracts, property, criminal law
and procedure, and civil
procedure. In the second and
third years the student may
select all elecUves.
Two black coeds, Janice Mills
of Reldsville, and Delores Jones
of Tarboro, juniors at UNC
Chapel Hill who attended the
weekend conference, hope to
enter law study and to enter
politics eventually. Both believe
UNC's .' S.8 . admission
requirement is a "little high for
black people."
"It's not so much a hassle to
make a 3.0 grade average,"
Janice said, "but sometimes the
personal and family problems
can get in the way." She is
maintaining a 3.6 average.
Some of the students ex
pressed concern over the
disadvantage of not coming
from an academic background.
"If you're willing to devote all
your time to academics you can
make it," Janice said, "but
others prefer broader dimen
sions in their life patterns."
Student Body President Epps
urged the students to become
involved In community ac
tivities. "Let the black people know
you are concerned about their
economics," he said.

Generally, the parent with

greater part of the year is en
"tltled to the dependency
deduction. There may be ex

on the terms of the decree and
the amount contributed to the
child's support by the parent
who does not have custody,
LeBaube said.
However, a parent may not
claim the exemption If someone
else' provides over half the
child's support for .the year,
