KU Grad Fights for Rights
CPS—At the University of Kan-sas'
commencement last spring,
graduating senior Ron Kuby abrup-tly
unfurled a banner that read: "K
U out of South Africa."
Now, four months later, Kuby is
going to court. He's charged with
interfering with a policeman when
the policeman tried to take Kuby's
banner away. But Kuby sees it
another way. He says he's on trial
because the university is trying to
curtail students' freedom of speech.
Still others see it as a court test of a
rule the university passed a decade
ago to cope with the generation t an-ti-
war protestors.
Kuby alleges that many student
groups have been subjected to "of-ficially-
sanctioned harrassment.''
He accuses KU Chancellor Archie
Dykes of being "opposed to all
forms of criticism." Though univer-sity
charges against him have been
dropped in favor of civil charges
brought by the city of Lawrence,
Kuby plans to base his defense on
those grounds.
Kuby, a well-known campus ac-tivist,
points to a series of incidents
that, he maintains, illustrates the
administration's unwillingness to
have certain views expressed on
campus:
•Students' invitation to radical
educator Jonathon Kozol to speak
on campus last year was revoked by
the administration, which allegedly
called Kozol an inappropriate Senate Approves Legislative
Increase from 7 to 9
The senate approved a proposal
at this week's Tuesday night
meeting that was submitted ")y
Kevin Yow raising the number of
members of the Committee on
Legislation from seven to nine.
The senators normally would not
vote on such a proposal unless it had
been submitted to them a week in
advance. In order to vote on the
proposal, it was necessary for the
senators to suspend the by-laws.
A 2/3 majority vote passed the
motion suspending the by-laws and
the orginal proposal submitted by
Yow was then put to a vote. The
motion was carried, and the number
of committee members was raised to
nine.
John Cecil, president of the
senate recognized Senator Bruce
Vail, a member of the judicial
committee who gave a report con-cerning
Senator Mark Newton's
conflict of interest charge against
former Senator Phil Cates of
Strong Dorm. Newton charged
former Senator Cates with Conflict
of Interest due to Cate'i position as
News editor of the "Carolinian"
and as a senator representing
Strong.
Phil Cates
The Judicial Committe then cited
that they had no power to decide on
such matters, stating that that mat-ter
was "out of our jurisdiction."
Instead, the charge was to be for-warded
to the Attorney General's
office accompanied by a statement
from the judicial commit lee.
The statement reported that
although the committee felt there
was no conflict of interest in the
matter, there was a breach of prin-ciple.
Under the business of legislative
approval and appointments, the
senators unanimously approved to
appoint Kelly Chandler and Rodney
Ouzts to the Publicity Committee,
and Dick Haizenga to the Social
Concerns and Activities committee.
In addition to the approval of ap-pointments,
two students, Kelly
Chandler and Scott Touchberry,
were sworn in as senators.
Other committee reports include
Appropriations Chairperson Marion
Roberson's report to the Senate on
allotments her committee had made
totalling ' 1,250.00 was allotted to
Social Concerns and Activities
Committee to go towards a student
bowling party which will be held
from 11:30 until 2:00 p.m. on Sept
28. The money will be used for ren-tal

Bowling alley and the services of

choice because he was not a
nationally-recognized figure.
•The university suddenly imposed
"literature guidelines" that restric-ted
the distribution of leaflets on
campus last year.
•A display of Nazi memorabilia
at the Kansas library was cancelled
when the administration, according
to Kuby. caved in to "pressures
from Jews." Kuby says the chan-cellor
either would not or could not
name those who objected to the
display.
•Campus security videotaped a
Kuby-organized Committee on
South Africa rally last spring with
cameras set up in the chancellor's
office.
Those kinds of incidents, Kuby
says, are what convinced him that
the university's policy against
political banners in enclosed cam-pus
areas-the policy that Kuby was
originally charged with violating-is
just part of a larger university policy
against allowing political ex-pression.

to
PIRG Accused of Violating
1stand14th Amendments
CAMDEN. N.J.. September 4,
1979-- "The State of New Jersey is
acting as a fund- raising agent tor a
private lobbying organization,"
stated Barbara Keating, president of
Consumer Alert.
Mrs. Keating was commenting on
the registration policies of Rutgers
University which are now being
questioned by a lawsuit in the Cam-den
Division of the U.S. District
Court of New Jersey. Three studen-ts
of the Camden College of Arts
and Sciences are challenging the use
of a mandatory student fee to
collect fund for the New Jersey
Public Interest Reselrch Group
(PIRG).
The suit was filed by the Mid-
Atlantic Legal Foundation on
behalf of the students and as a class
action suit. Individual plaintiffs are
Joseph Galda, a sophomore;
Kristina Farrow, a senior; and Paul
Ewert, a junior.
In their suit, the students argue
that use of a mandatory student fee
collected by an agency of the state
fund the activities of a private lob-bying
group violates the First and
Fourteenth Amendment Rights of
themselves and other Rutgers
students.
The brief cites as a precedent
Abood vs. the Detroit Board of
Education. In that 1977 case the
Supreme Court decided that a
teacher could not be compelled to
pay a fee to a union to support its
lobbying activities.

Special to the Carolinian
Student organization executives
met on September 14 and 15, in
Cone Ballroom, for the first Studetn
Leadership Retreat of the fall
semester: This retreat was
established to get all of the student
leaders from different organizations
together to discuss problems which
face the student body.
One of the first things done at the
retreat was to compile a list of the
most important issues that should
have the highest priorities. Sixteen
major issues were put on the list.
Campus parking was one of those
priorities. The students felt that it
was important to pin the admin-stration
down to a viable parking
solution. It was suggested that a
multi-leveled parking garage be
built in the Graham parking lot to
better service the commuting
students.
The student leaders also expect
the university to obtain funds to
purchase land surrounding the cam-pus
to use for parking.
An "overload" of information
throughout the campus was also
cited as a problem. The students at
the retreat felt there were too many
posters bombarding the student
population. It was voiced that
students don't read any of the in-formation
that is extended to them
because they don't have time to read
everthing that has been stuck on the
walls. A suggestion to establish a
"Today and Tomorrow" activities
board in EUC was discussed. This
will be further discussed in the Oc-tober
meetings.
Another issue examined was the
Town vs. Dorm Student concerns.
The group concluded that those
problems involving the town and
dorm students were separate and it
would not be wise to try to incor-porate
those problems.

allowing ordination of
homosexuals.

The first Red Cross Bloodmobile
of the school year began yesterday
in Cone Ballroom. A total of 383
pints of blood have already been
collected.
"Today was an absolute suc-cess,"
stated Red Cross Official
Susan Parris. "We are slightly
below what we expected, but if
tomorrow's turnout is as good as
this evening's, we should meet our
goal."
There was also an unusually high
turn out of first time donors. Seven-ty
new donors gave blood and in
Ms. Parris' words "...took their
time away from school work and
busy first weeks of school to give
blood (the gift of life)."
As an attempt to help Red Cross
meet their goal. Alpha Phi Omega
and Gamma Sigma Sigma are giving
the dorm or town students 3 kegs of
Andecker fat the iarges turnout.
Moore Hall presently has a narrow
lead in the contest.
APO and Gamma Sig have been
assisting on Bloodmnbiles at the
UNC-G campus for nearly a decade.
This year the Jaycees have joined
them to assist in the drive. Ms.
Parris said of the organizations that
"they were the backbone of support
for Red Cross on the UNC-G cam-pus.
As a final plea from Red Cross
for donors, Ms. Parris said, "There
is always a shortage. Blood b m
human resource and only you can
help."
You still have time to give. The
Bloodmobile ends today at 5 p.m.,
and will return in approximately 3
months, but don't wait, give now.
Academic revision of UNC-G
courses was also of concern. It was
noted that some of the courses of-fered
were outdated and should be
updated. Catalog course descrip-tions
were also cited as needing im-provement.
Alcohol policies was of great in-terest
to the students participating
in the retreat. Prior to the meeting,
a campus pub had been suggested as
a possibility for .alcohol
distribution. It was noted however
that it is illegal to sell alcoholic
beverages on state institution cam-puses.
The students were informed
that an ABC-BYOB Policy Making
Committee had been formed and
they were examining possibilities of
changing the current alcohol
regulations.
Students were also concerned that
the student body didn't know the
members of the Board of Trustees.
A suggestion for a deli inviting the
board members to meet the students
was aired. The idea of holding
question and answer sessions with
President Friday and Chancellor
Moran also received good response.
The students were also concer-nded
with the ARA meal plan that
currently exists. SG has formed a
committee that is working on ob-taining
a seven or ten meal plan.
The group left that problem to the
committee.
The Leadership Retreat will
reconvene October 26 at 6 p.m. in
Cone Ballroom. Previous par-ticipants
will be invited to return.
This meeting is open to all interested
students. Those who would like to
be involved should call the Student
Development Office at 379-5514.
