PoaUft PAID Graaaakoro. MX, Ptrmit Ne. 30 Volum* M. IMW 24; Marrh 0» 19U Umvcnity of North Carolina at Graanaboro Cot a atorr idea? Call ua at 379-5752 Asbestos still questioned BY SHARON PATRISE WILLIAMS SUff Writer Several weeks ago, it was discover/d that asbestos had been used as insulating material around exposed pipes in the basement of Guilford Hall. Many people have voiced concern over what was or is being done about it. Residence Life Assistant Director Dr. Steve Haulman says that the problem in Guilford has beeen taken care of and that the other dorms on cam-pus with asbestos problems will be taken care of in the near future. Residence Life first became aware that there was a potential problem when editor Mark Corum called and asked about asbestos in Guilford. Residence Life looked in-to the situation and saw that a potential hazard existed. Although it has not yet been determined definitively whether the insulating material is really asbestos (the lab results are due this week), Residence Life has proceeded as if it is. The day after they were notified of the problem, Residence Life crews patched the insulating material with duct tape in Guilford and investigated other dorms on campus to see if similar situations existed. Residence Life has since in-stalled hard plastic encasements around the insulating material in Guilford to insure that no loose par-ticles of the material will escaoe in-to the air. Similar encasements will soon be installed in other dorms with possible asbestos problems. Did Residence Life act properly in this situation? According to the ex-perts interviewed by Joseph Sullivan in the September 5, 1984 edition of the New York Times, they did: QUESTION: What is asbestos and why is it dangerous? ANSWER: It is an insulating material made from the fibers of certain minerals that do not bum or conduct heat or electricity and are resistant to chemicals. It has been found to cause cancer and other il-lnesses in people who inhale its fibers. QUESTION: Is there a safe level of exposure? ANSWER: There is no agree-ment on this. The Federal Occupa-tional Safety and Health Ad-ministration has fixed a standard of two fibers per cubic centimeter of air. QUESTION: Should asbestos be removed in every case? ANSWER: Many experts say no, arguing that hasty and ill-planned removal can worsen the problem and endanger the workers doing the removal and the people who later occupy the building. Experts say each building should be checked to see if the material is flaking or canbe shaken loose by vibrations. The state of Florida has policies that call for covering asbestos with a plastic material to prevent its fibers from becoming airborne. Residence Life handled a similar case two years ago when it was discovered during a routine com-prehensive inspection that asbestos had been used in the construction of the ceilings of Moore-Strong. The dorm was closed during the summer of 1983 and all the asbestos was removed. Central America commemoration held BY KURT PEDERSON SUff Writer With the impending crisis in Nicaragua, and the United States' involvement in El Salavador, Cen-tral America has again claimed the limelight of American Foreign Policy. The enormity of political confusion within Central America generally causes consternation on the home-front as well. However, a small but active group on campus, Students Concerned for Central America, is currently working to alleviate this confusion by educating people about Central American culture. They claim that knowing what makes Central Americans im-portant as a people helps us in understanding their political tendencies and needs. Last week was National Central America Awareness Week in memory of Monsignor Oscar A. Romero, the Archbishop of San Salvador, who was assassinated March 24,1980. Students Concern-ed for Central America held four events in commemoration of Romero, all designed to educate UNC-G students about Central American culture. Tuesday there was a film. Wednesday two students had a slide presentation concerning their visit to Nicaragua. Surprisingly enough, Nicaraguans are very receptive to foreign visitors, unlike other Central American countries. Clinton Hughes, Vice President of SCCA said, "They can't afford not to be friendly to outsiders." Thursday an "Evening of Culture" was held in the Large Parlor of Mary Foust Hall. A pot-luck dinner comprised of various Central American dishes , like enchilada pie, were served with an authentic tasting mock-sangria wine. Mary Walker, President of the SCCA, organized the event, in which forty students and faculty members took part. The purpose of the gathering was centered more around "the culture of Central America, not as much the politics," according to miss Walker. Hike Krass, co-organizer of the dinner, said its purpose was basically to rt into the Latin American spirit things." Dr. Mary Floyd answered questions afterward. Cen-tral American Awareness Week was designed with the intention of making people more aware of the situation in Central America. When asked why UNC-G students should be concerned with Central America, Dr. Floyd responded by mentioning the millions of U.S. tax dollars America pumps into Central America every year. Also, no one knows how the continued immigra-tion of Hispanics wilt affect in-dustrial job complexes within the states. Admittedly, most Americans are ignorant of Central American culture. Dr. Floyd addressed several aspects of the mobility of Central American culture. "Their social mobility and opportunity to achieve bear no resemblance to the North American context of social mobility." In essence, we have time for college in the "States" because we don't have to farm in order to support our family. We also have Federal loans and state scholarships which ease the cost of school. Cen-tral American culture is decidedly different from the one in which Americans participate. There is rural poverty in the U.S., but we general-ly do not see it up front. And it is a fact that most Americans are educated beyond the eigth grade. Dr. Floyd ended the discussion by stating we must be aware of "whose eyes are perceiving the situation. What America is cannot be transferred to another society. Democracies do not appear over-night. The process involves hard work, lots of sacrifice, and com-promise." Central America Awareness Week culminated at Greensboro College with a Sunday evening service in memory of Oscar Romero. Photo by Michael Read Welcoming Springtime—It's been said that in spring, a young men's fancies turn to various sinus medications. While such may be the case, it does not appear to be true of the fairer sex. This unidentified UNC-G co-ed decided to greet the beautiful weather in the manner of a truly religious Aztec—basking in the glorious sunlight. As the temperatures rise, such spectalces will inevitably become more and more common and hopefully, young men can discover things other than their sinuses effected by the coming of spring. Church/State separation to be discussed Special To The Carolinian How did religious freedom come to be guaranteed by the United States Constitution? What is the significance of the issues that BUT-round the interpretation of this con-stitutional guarantee to residents in the greater Greensboro community? These issues will be examined during April in a series of lectures and seminars entitled "Church, State and the First Amendment: A Greensboro Dialogue." Free and open to the public, the events are being held in recognition of the for-thcoming bicentennial birthday of the U.S. Constitution. Beginning April 3, prominent scholars in American religious studies, including the world-renown historian of Christianity Dr. Martin E. Marty, will address in lectures the relationship between politics and religion in this country, the diversity of attitudes toward liber-ty here and the impact of Protes-tant Christian sensibilities on public institutions. The month-long series is being sponsored by the Department of Religious Studies at UNC-G and the North Carolina Humanities Com-mittee, with the cooperation of the UNC-G Department of Communica-tion and Theatre. "Leaving aside the non-Christian communities, there is much to be discussed on these issues, which are some of the most important of our time," said Dr. Henry S. Levinson, project director and assistant pro-fessor of religious studies at UNC-G. "Then add the Jewish, non-believing and other related com-munities, and things become more complex. We are trying to promote discussion by all on these issues." To help discussion, three study group sessions will be be held in April, along with the lectures. Also free and open to the public, the ses-sions, led by religious leaders in the area, will be held in the seminar Highway Funding Resolution Passes BY STEVE NIMVAGGI Ntwa Editor The Senate passed a resolution denouncing the withholding of Federal funding for highway renewal from any state whose legal drinking age was not 21. The bill was presented by Senator Buck Buchanan. The same bill recently was passed by the North Carolina Student Legislature at their annual session. Buchanan is Vice-Chairperson of the NCSL delegation from UNC-G. The bill was passed by a 17 to 13 vote with 3 abstentions. The debate of the bill echoed pre-Civil War rhetoric concerning how much Gwer Federal government should ve over the state governments. Buchanan told the Senate it was not an "anti-21 drinking age bill," but serves notice to the Federal govern-ment that they are impeding on our state's rights. Senator Ricardo Rodriguiz said, "The states have been abdicating responsibility for the welfare of the people." He went on to say that the law was "very constitutional, and it is designed to protect citizens." Continuing with negative debate Senator Jeff Johnson added, "a la» is only as good as the enforcement that backs that law." Johnson believed the discontinuity of alcohol laws in each state made it harder to enforce. He also stated he thought it "dangerous" to contradict Federal law. Also that night, the Appropria-tions Committee recommended that $750 be given to the Spring Fling committee for either a carnival or towards a concert featuring the group Champagne. The concert will cost |6000. It will be held in Aycock Auditorium, and tickets will be (5. the motion passed leaving the SG with only f1200 until the end of the semester. The last order of business Tuesday night were nominations for "Outstanding Senator." Those nominated were: Bill Snedden, Leslie Hairfield. Bernetta Ghist, David Nance, Buck Buchanan, Mike Stewart, Ricardo Rodriguiz, Tim Casstevens and Jeff Johnson. room of the Greensboro Public Library on Greene Street. Persons can attend one or all of the lectures and sessions. "The study group sessions offer a profound opportunity for people to take advantage of not only listen-ing to some of the most acute inter-pretations of religion and politics in America, but also to study over a period of time the documents, Supreme Court cases and other material on these very complex set of issues," Dr. Levinson said. Dates, times and locations of the lectures and seminars, with infor-mation on the topics, follow: Wednesday, April 3-Dr. Catherine Albanese of Wright State University will lecture at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of the James S. Ferguson (Arts and Sciences) Building on the UNC-G campus.
