for Student Affairs

The office of Student Af-fairs
has proposed a plan to
make major structural
changes to the Student Af-fairs
Division, according to a
memorandum by Vice-
Chancellor James Allen.
Allen circulated the
memorandum, dated April 12,
to various departments within
the division, informing them
of the proposal to restructure
the Office of the Dean of
Students.
The plan calls for redefining
the position of the present
Dean of Students, Clifford B.
Lowry, to a new position as
Director of Cultural and Co-curricular
programs. Lowery
would remain in charge of cur-rent
programs, but would also
head several new co-curricular
programs, including Interna-tional
Studies and Travel.
"I'm excited about the new
focus areas," Lowery said on
April 20. "It will enable
Academic Affairs and Student
Affairs to be true partners in
the educational enterprise."
The plan also calls for the
promotions of the present
Assistant Deans of students to
assistant vice-chancellor
positions.
Associate Dean of Students
James Lancaster, would
become Assistant to the Vice-
Chancellor, with many of the
duties he currently assumes.
Assistant Dean of Students,
Bettina Shuford, would be
promoted to Assistant Vice-
Chancellor, with primary
responsibility for minority
affairs.
The current director for
disabled and international
students, Dr. Diane Cooper,
would also become an assis-tant
to the vice-chancellor.
Assistant Dean Bruce
Michaels would become the
Director of EUC and Student
Activities.
According to Lancaster, the
proposal comes in response to
the expanding functions of the
Student Affairs Division.
"The thrust is to basically help
the students through a more
efficient structure," he said.
State laws hinder third parties
BY THEDA
LEATHERWOOD
staff writer
In North Carolina, can-didates
affiliated with neither
the Democratic nor Republican
party find ic difficult to get on
the ballot.
According to the Guilford
County Board of Elections,
state laws require that these
candidates gather signatures
and five cents for every
signature of two percent of
the registered voter in the
state.
This two percent is approx-imately
60,000 voters and a
$3,000 fee. Like other can-didates
who face this dilemma.
Stuart Crome, who is the
Socialist Workers Party
nominee for governor, feels
this is an undemocratic policy
designed to discourage new
parties.
The Libertarian and New
Alliance parties have also
been collecting signatures for
the June 7 filing deadline.
Crome, a 30 year-old textile
worker from Greensboro, an-nounced
his intentions to run
March 6. Crome has been an
active member of the Young
Socialist Alliance and the
Socialist Workers Party since
1978.
"I was looking at different
problems in our society:
racism, sexism, destruction of
the environment and U.S. in-volvement
in wars around the
world," he said.
"I came to the conclusion
that they all had something in
common. These problems
were a result of the capitalist
market system."
Crome decided to run for
Governor "to give a voice to
people of the working class
and present a new perspective
to these voters." He hopes his
campaign will inform others of
the concerns of working class
people in this country.
He said he will gauge the
success of his campaign not on
the number of votes he
receives, but in the number of
working class people he
reaches.
Crome asserts that the
future is looking progressive-ly
worse for working class
citizens. He cites recent
events such as last October's
stock market crash as
evidence of this failure.
It suggests "those who in-vest
have little confidence in
the system. As our foreign
markets decline, working
class citizens, here and in the
Third World, are being forced
to pay for it," he said.
There are many changes
Crome would like to make in
North Carolina. He said that
abolishment of the Right to
