Steve Pacquette, Chariperson of the Appropriations Committee, presented the 1980-81 budgets. With one exception, each budget was restricted from exceeding last year's by 15^t. The Emergency Medical Association requested $7,136.00, and was appropriated $5,788.00. Student Government requested $66,049.87; an appropriation of S56.40S.00 was approved. The International Relations Club requested $6,060.00, and was appropriated $2,060.00; in addition, the club was given the option to request travel expenses when necessary.

The amount received exceeds their budget of last year by 191 *H, but was approved despite the 15% limitation because of the current revival of the club. The club existed nominally last year, and excess funds are necessary for reactivation. The Science Fiction Club requested $5,345.00, and the Appropriations Committee lowered that amount to $3,960,00. The Senate, because of general lack of understanding, did not approve the budget. Steve was asked to clarify the budget and present it again next week. The Senate also approved an appropriation of $5,000.00 to the UNC-C Job Placement Center. The Center is the only one in North Carolina in a four-year institution and is one of 270 nationwide, making UNC-O "a front runner in something new and inovative."

Diedre Smith made a report to the Senate from SCAC. She discussed plans for a Bowling Party to be held on Oct. 25, from 12:00 until 3:00 am. All forty Brunswick lanes will be reserved for UNC-G bowlers, and all the beer students can drink will be served until 2:00. The party, which will cost approximately $2,000.00, is tentative. Diedre also proposed a concert in cooperation with EUC of "Mickey Gilly. Joni Lee, and the Urban Cowboy Band." The idea of students watching election returns together was tossed around, as well as an S.G. sponsored "all night movie thing." Patsy Pierce, Chairperson of the Student Orientation Committee, reported on the success of Orientation 1980. Based on a questionaire administered to 125 freshmen, most students enjoyed orientation activities and felt that the activities had helped them adjust. Vickie Bosch of the Committee on Academic Concerns, reported last week that the Committee's goals for this year are to publish a course guide by Fall 1981, to look into the possibility of establishing a file in the library containing the syllabus of each professor, and to look into summer staff hiring politics. Also, President of the Senate, Mark Newton, mentioned the possibility of forming a committee to deal with race relations on campus. Because Randy Carlisle is on one month's leave of absence.

The Senate was once again reminded of the yearbook deadline. Also, students are urged to attend campus appearances of Gene Johnston and Richardson Preyer, N.C. Congressional opponents. Professor Co-Authors Book on Environment UNC-G News Bureau GREENSBORO-Dr. Steven C. Hayes, an assistant professor of psychology at UNC-G has co-authored a book on dealing with environmental problems with psychological methods. Entitled "Environmental Problems/Behavioral Solutions." the 284-page book was published tost month by Brooks/Cole Publishing Company of Monterey, Cal. It is the fifth in the firm's scries of books dealing with concepts in environment and behavior. Written with Dr. John D. Cone, a professor of psychology at West Virginia University, the boot is designed as a text and research source for students and psychologists. "We argue that most of our current environmental problems can be thought of in terms of behavioral problems." said Hayes. "The book addresses the proposition that behavioral methods should go hand in hand with technology in working out environmental problems." Among the specific environmental problems covered are litter, environmental design, noise, recycling, population, residential energy and water consumption and transportation. The book reports a large body of research that has been done on the effects of behavior modification when it's applied to environmental problems, said Hayes. He noted that favorable results were obtained through this approach in several problem areas. The new book is Hayes first. A psychology faculty member at UNC-G since 1976, he holds the B.A. degree from Loyola University and the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from West Virginia University. Robbins Delivers Annual Mclver Lecture By MARTHA HALL Special to The Carolinian Dr. Louise Robbins, an associate professor of Anthropology at UNC-G, delivered the annual Mclver lecture in conjunction with Founders* DAy in the Cone Ballroom of Elliott University Center Monday following a 6:00 p.m. dinner. Dr. Robbins, introduced by Chancellor William E. Moran, spoke on the topic, "Dealing with the Evolving University and Our Role as Ancestors". Dr. Moran commented that th^.a^ain purpose of the progra..i was to commemorate the heritage of a "wonderful" university. During the past three summers. Dr. Robbins has done research with world-renowned anthropologist Dr. Mark Leakey in Tanzania, East Africa. Together, they discovered a fossilized path of hominid (man-like) footprints about three and half million years old. Following its announcement at a Washington, D.C. news conference, this discovery received international attention. Before coming to UNC-G in 1974, Dr. Robbins taught in Nebraska, Connecticut, and Mississippi. Dr. Robbins has done some writing on skeleton remains and ancient footprints. Presently, she is writing a book, hopefully to be published this spring. During her speech. Dr. Robbins stated that UNC-G has evolved in many ways, in such factors as size, enrollment, and course offerings. She explained that when UNC-G, then known as the State Normal and Industrial School, first opened on October 5, 1892, it had only a few buildings and was located in the country. "Look where we're located now," she commented. Headed by its first president, Charles Duncan Mclver, UNC-G opened with an enrollment of 179 students. The total headcount this semester was 10,390 students. Not much variety in courses was offered when UNC-G first opened. For instance, no psychology or computer science courses were offered. Only one or two home economics courses were taught. Now, there is a building designated just for home economics classes. During her speech, Dr. Robbins also discussed the great men who made important contributions to UNC-G, like Mclver, Joyner, and Alderman, who believed in education for both men and women. "This university is unique because it not only has great men, but it also has great women," said Dr. Robbins. She mentioned such great women as Mrs. Kirk land, who taught conduct and dress, and Mrs. Elliott, who guided the large student body and dealt with social activities. Dr. Robbins also mentioned Miss Mossman, who worked in the field of sociology and was vice chancellor involved with academic affairs. Dr. Robbins additionally complimented UNC-G on being very cultural. She expressed her feeling of belonging at UNC-G. Dr. Robbins concluded her speech by saying, "We are the living ancestors of this socio-cultural institution. What kind of ancestors are we to be?" As part of the Founders' Day activities, the UNC-G Alumni Association sponsored a leadership development conference October 6- 7 for approximately 100 alumni involved in university projects and programs. Speakers at this conference were Dr. Richard Bardoph, emeritus professor and former head of UNC-G's Department of History; Dr. Richard Harwood, director of UNC-G's Career Planning and Placement Center, and other members of The Center's staff. Other speakers were Dr. Jacquelyn Gaebelein, an associate professor of psychology at UNC-G, and Patsy Parker, director of recruiting for Wachovia Bank and Trust Company's operations in Greensboro. Chancellor Moran also addressed this group.

Unregistered persons wishing to vote in that race may go to the Board of Elections office in the Guilford County Courthouse downtown and apply for a presidential race ballot.
