Albee Encourages Involvement
By SCOTT DODGSON
Special to the Carolinian
Edward Albee, an American playwright whose
works rank among the finest in contemporary
theater, just concluded a three-day appearance here
swffphoto by Ric Hodges
which included a lecture, and a workshop and
climaxed with Albee's own production company's
performance of The American Dream and The Zoo
Story Friday night.
Albee is the single most successful, revolutionary
and respected theatrical writer that this country has
produced in nearly a generation. He feels that there
should be a more natural involvement in all arts, and
during his talk Thursday night referred to how this
involvement has fared in the recent history of the
United States.
"The health of the arts," Albee feels, "is linked to
who governs us. During the Eisenhower years, art
stood in a state of mediocrity. The Kennedy years, on
the other hand, marked a period of renaissance for
American art. The government devoted more money
to the arts and a great surge of artists erupted on the
national scene, helping change the social scheme of
America. This close association of art and gover-nment
was allowed to flourish during the Johnson
years. But when Nixon was elected this renaissance
ended."

Suitcase Coeds Stop Packing
Club Football a Possibility at UNC-G
By WILLIAM HOLDEN
News Editor
An organizational meeting con-cerning
the creation of a UNC-G
football club is to be held on Feb. 1
at 6:30 p.m. in the Claxton Room of
Elliott Center.
The meeting was initiated by
Mark Perry, a freshman who
believes that under a Title IX suit,
the school should conduct a survey
to determine campus interest in
acquiring a football club.
"The school is not putting the
choice before the students. Those Managerial Courses
Offered to Aid
Businessmen UNC-G News Bureau -Two
special, non-credit courses designed
to update those who hold
managerial jobs in the business
world will be offered in February at
the University of North Carolina
at Greensboro.
The courses are: "A Manager's
Guide to Human Behavior," Feb.
13-April 10, 7 p.m.-9:30 p.m.,
Tuesdays, room 226, Mclver
Building. The second class, "What
Managers Do," scheduled for Feb.
14-April II, on Wednesdays, 7
p.m.-9:30 p.m., room 226 Mclver
Building.
Both courses will be sponsored by
the UNC-G School of Business and
Economics and are presented in
collaboration with the American
Management Associations.
This marks the sixth straight
semester that UNC-G has presented
courses through the AMA, accor-ding
to Dr. John Blasingame, an
assistant professor of business and
economics who will coordinate the
courses.
"Both of these courses have a
very practical problem-solving
orientation and are not based on as
much theory as courses in the
University's regular curriculum,"
noted Dr. Blasingame.
"These two offerings are
designed for businessmen who have
day-to-day problems and the cour-ses
should be particularly helpful to
those in the first level of
management and in middle
management."
The offerings are geared for
people in the community with no
prior university experience who
want to it ove their skills in
management areas.
Registration is being handled
through the UNC-G Office of Con-tinuing
Education, 379-5414. A fee
for each of the classes will be
charged.
Teaching "A Manager's Guide
to Human Behavior" will be Dr.
Blasingame. This course is designed
to help participants gain new in-sights
into human nature, in order
that manages can deal more effec-tively
with workers and other
people. Among the areas to be
covered are management ap-plication
of motivation theories,
transactional analysis in a business
environment, management ap-plication
of leadership theories, self-esteem
and relations with others,
and improving relationships
through a performance review.
Dr. Thomas A. Petit, professor
of business administration at UNC-G,
will teach "What Managers
Do." The course will cover such
areas as managerial responsibilities,
personal capacity for work, the
manager-subordinate relationship,
tests of performance and perfor-mance
assessment. In summary, the
course has a practical orientation
toward how managers can improve
their performances and that of
subordinates.
Dr. Blasingame said both courses
are among the most popular ones
ever offered by the American
Management Associations, accor-ding
to survey results.
who want to play should get the
chance," he said.
According to Title IX, "A
recipient which operates or sponsors
athletics shall determine at least an-nually,
using a method to be selec-ted
by the recipient which is accep-table
to the Director, in what sports
members of each sex would desire to
compete."
Perry believes that his proposal
has a good chance of being ap-proved
by the student Senate, and
hopes that the Senate will see fit to
fund or subsidize the club in some
way if it is approved.
"We're 13th or 14th in college
funding," said Perry, "but we're
the fifth largest school. There must
be enough money somewhere for a
football club."
Club football is popular among,
universities with and without foot-ball
programs. Those with teams

Benedict of the TSEB.
Lecture Series to Focus
on U. S. Foreign Policy
UNC-G News Bureau—A series
of eight weekly lecture-discussion
sessions on topics of fundamental
importance in American foreign
policy will begin Monday, Feb. 12,
at the University of North Carolina
at Greensboro.
Subjects will include such
significant issues as international
terrorism, Chinese-American
relations, black Africa, world trade
and the American dollar, and four
more major topics.
Entitled "Great Decisions '79."
the series is sponsored nationally by
the Foreign Policy Association, a
non-profit, non-partisan organiz
tion which for 23 years has conduc-ted
the annual series in an effort to
promote public knowledge of U.S.
foreign policy.
The sessions are open to the
public without charge and are coor-dinated
in this area by the Inter-national
Studies Program at UNC-G.
Included in the series for this
region are Guilford, Randolph,
Alamance, Rockingham, Caswell,
and Person counties.
"This program offers an excellent
chance for students and the public
to learn some of the problems in-volved
in U.S. foreign policy
decision-making," said Dr. Claude
Chauvigne, director of UNC-G's In-ternational
Studies Program. "And
it gives a good global awareness of
what's going on in foreign policy."
The lecture-discussions will be
held on Mondays from 7:30-9 p.m.
in Alderman Lounge of Elliott
University Center on campus.
Persons wishing to receive con-tinuing
education credit for the

make the school team cut, but still
want to play ball. N.C. State, UNC-Wilmington
and East Carolina all
have club teams, while State and
ECU have them in addition to their
varsity squads.
Perry supports his position by
citing a clause in the Title IX
legislation, and with the opinions of
several prominent Student Gover-ment
leaders. He feels that a foot-ball
program would help "unite a
fragmented campus" and help
UNC-G bury its reputation as a
"women's college" and a "suitcase
school."
"This would be a great long term
project," said Perry. "It would
benefit the merchants as well as the
students, even if we had only a
division III team."

Stretching from House of Crafts
to the Janus Wings, merchants from
thirty odd businesses have affiliated
to form Tate Village in order to
enhance the business climate of the
Tate Street area.
After three meetings represented
by more than half .of the area mer-chants,
the Tate Village Association
has laid the framework for a char-ter,
created a logo, and planned a
"Village Fest" for the spring and
fall. Preliminary work for the mer-chants'
association has also in-cluded
designing signs to be placed
on West Lee, Soring Garden and
Market Streets, labeling the area.
"We hope to kick the whole thing
off this spring with the 'Village
Fest,' May 5, which will include
craft exhibits, merchant
promotions, a concert in the Wings'
and live music -- hopefully bluegrass
or jazz," remarked local merchant
Joel Tull, the unofficial secretary
for the association.
Tull admitted that although the
lines of communication were
initially weak, all local merchants
have now been contacted, and ac-cording
to Tull, the Tate Village
Association will get seventy-five
percent participation from area
businesses.
The project, the brainchild of
Tull and Discount Records manager
Steve Body, has been in the plan-ning
stages for several weeks.
Commenting on the recent facelift
of Tate Street by the city of Green-sboro,
Tull said, "Our idea goes
hand in hand with the redesigning of
the street." He added, "Now that
the physical appearance has been
renovated we would like to do
something more to improve the
Poli-Sci Department
Offers Summer
Internship Program
GREENSBORO-A summer in-ternship
program for college studen-ts,
which features 12 weeks of work
in local government and private
agencies along with a weekly
academic seminar in urban affairs,
will be offered again this summer in
Greensboro.
The program will run from May
22 to Aug. 9 and is sponsored by the
Department of Political Science at
the University of North Carolina at
Greensboro. Selections of those to
receive internships will be made by
March 30.
All applications for the inter-nships
should be submitted to the
department by March 7, according
to Dr. James C. Thompson, an
assistant professor of political
science at UNC-G who directs the
internships. Information is
available by contacting Thompson
at the department, 379-5093, week-days.
Participation in the program is
limited to students from A&T State
University. UNC-G, or Bennett.
Greensboro, Guilford, or High
Point Colleges--or to Guilford
County residents who attend college
elsewhere. Thompson noted that
between 20 and 25 interns will be
sponsored this summer.
The program has added a new
wrinkle this year, according to
Thompson. In the past, the inter-nship
program has arranged sum-mer
positions for students. Thom-pson
noted that students may
arrange their own jobs this year and
will be allowed to enroll in the in-ternship
program if the positions are
approved.
"The students will be working
approximately 30 to 40 hours a week
in their positions and going to a
seminar in the evening once a
week." said Thompson. "This ap-proach
is one of the best ways we
know of to combine the academic
and practical aspects of working
with governmental and private
agencies."
The program is pan of UNC-G's
regular Summer Sessioo and interns
must enroll as regular fee-paying
student* Six hours of academic
credit will be awarded to those who
complete the summer program.
The internships are open to
sophomores but preference will be
given to rising junior or rising senior
college students. Applicants can
major in any academic subject but
background in government or urban
studies is desirable. Last summer,
23 students worked in agencies in
Greensboro, Guilford County and
High Point.
general appearance of the area."
The association also hopes to
alleviate some of the parking
problems encountered since the
city's institution of a parking or-dinance
mandating towing for
illegally parked cars in the campus
area. "We are the only parking area
around the campus where towing is
not required," cited Tull, "instead
illegal parkers are only ticketed."
Tull indicated that the concept
could be a total success with the help
and cooperation of all the local
merchants. He pointed out, "We
have a different atmosphere here
than in any spot of the town, in-cluding
Quaker Village."
State Tuition
Increases
Less Than
Inflationary
Rate
Washington, D.C. (CPS)—Studen-ts
at state colleges and universities
are right in thinking the cost of
education has gone up this year, but
the cost has not, according to one
recent report, gone up as fast as the
cost of other things. Higher
education went up 5.2 percent from
1977 to 1978, while the Consumer
Price Index, the standard inflation
measure, rose nine percent over the
same period.
Tuition and fees expenditures
generally went up more in the mid-west,
southwest, and northeast,
while state schools in the eastern
and southern states, where increases
have been the most drastic in recent
years, generally held tuition in-creases
below the C.P.I, rate. In all,
40 states managed to keep their in-creases
below the inflation rate.
The figures were released by the
American Association of State
Colleges and Universities (AASCU),
which regularly reports on higher
education economics. The AASCU
says that the national average for
tuition and room and board is $1925
for undergraduate state residents
during the 1978-79 academic year.
Out-of-state undergrads at state
schools spend and average $2,857.
