M Thuraday, February SO, 1986 -The Student Voice of UNCG" Volume LXV. Number Mjj 13 Senators sworn in Tuesday By F1RDOUS BAMJ1 PMN Cera* rcareseatatlTe* caiM to UNCG rarioas projects. Thirteen newly elected senators were inducted at Tuesday night's senate meeting. The next business it hand waa the president's report and president Mike Stewart announced that there would be budget workshop* held for organizations next week, and that the budget requests for all organizations are due on the 18th of March. Between March 19 and 28, the senate will conduct budget hearings where student organizations will present their respective budget requests. All of the budgets approved by the senate in April are, however, still requests and will be finalized next fall. The Outing Club requested funds for their annual trip to the Florida Quays this Spring Break. After some discussion the senate voted in favor of supply-ing the Outing Club with $635 for their trip. The Residence Hall Association (RHA) proposed that their officers be elected under a general elec-tory basis, based on the grounds that students liv-ing on campus should be given the opportunity to elect their officers. The proposal was passed by the senate with the understanding that the RHA would also aid in the polling process. Their elections will now be held at the same time as the general elections. Musa Dangana, a member of the Health Informa-tion Committee of UNCG, held the floor next. He began by announcing that the annual Fitness Fsir has been postponed to next fall, due to the bad weather conditions and other setbacks. Dangana also raised the issue of The Carolinian Health Col-umn, which no longer exists because of lack of stu-dent input. Students are encouraged to send in ques-tions and concerns to The Carolinian on the topic of general health on or off campus, ensbling The Carolinian and health services to increase students' understanding of current health issues. There is also a Student Advisory Committee of the Health Cantor, students are encouraged to submit their con-cerns and suggestions. The topic of AIDS was also discussed. Dangana said that the Health Informa-tion Committee is currently working on enlighten ing students about the AIDS virus. There is, however, no research being conducted on campus relating to the virus. It was also clarified that if AIDS was diagnosed, the concerned party would not be asked to leave the University for further treat-ment unless it proved harmful to him/her or the student body. There was s case of AIDS detected on campus, Dangana said, and that student "had since left". Whether the student was asked to leave or left voluntarily was not specified. Under old business, a motion was passed to recon-sider the resolution made by senate on (See Senators, page 67 Reagan's budget proposals limit student loans By JENNIFER GREEN The Special Services project, which specializes in providing academic assistance to needy students, is about to sustain cut-backs in federal faaaing which will mske the program's outlook anything but special. The budget proposal presented by President Reagan on Feb. 5 promises a serious reduction in funding that Special Services, Upward Bound, Talent Search and the Educational Opportuni-ty Council will receive. These organizations, which are under the umbrella organization, Trio, will each receive cuts of 4.3 percent when the Gramm- Kudman-HoUings Act goes into effect March 1. The act will limit the number of grants awarded to Upward Bound organizations. Under the new budget proposal, overall Trio funding will be reduced by 56 percent to 82.3 million dollars, almost half of the 1176.3 million allocated to Trio during fiscal year 1986. Under Gramm-Rudman- Holhngs, universities csn receive funding for Trio programs for s limit of five successive years. In light of these cutbacks, three congressmen in the House of Representatives (Sylvio Con-to of Massachusetts, William Ford of Michigan, and Lewis Stokes of Ohio) introduced s resolution for discussion Feb. 28 to be called National Trio Day, the last day for which Trio fun-ding will remain intact before the new cuts take effect. Six of the 12 million students who receive such aid would be cut under the new proposal. State Student Educational Op-portunity Grants and Student In-eesMive Grants would be eliminated. The Interest rate for Guaranteed Student Loans also will change. Currently, a student receiving a Guaranteed Student Loan from a private bank receives 100 percent of the principle. The new budget proposal limits the principle on these loans by 10 percent, with the student still having to pay back the entire amount of the loan. Fewer students would be eligible for Pell Grants and there would be an overall redaction m Trio grants for the 1987-88 fiscal year of 26 percent. The Special Services projects, however, would be the hardest hit, since many of them still con-tinue to be funded by the federal government instead of by the universities in which they operate. The project here at UNCG faces reductions in ser-vices, in numbers of students served, and faces total elimina-tion. The estimated $2.6 billion proposed in cats for the educs-tion budget will result in either an elimination or a drastic lartimlwlim of the program. Headed by Gertrude Ross, the local project boasts an 88 percent yearly retention rate for students which come through the pro-gram, a rate higher than that of UNCG overall. (See Budget, page t) Candidates hold forum On Thursday night, Feb. 27, UNCG will host eight of the ten candidates who have filed to run for the Democratic nomination to the U.S. Senate. The candidates will participate in a candidates' forum sponsored by the UNCG University Democrats. According to Thorn Little, president of the Universi-ty Democrats, 'The race to fill the U.S. Senate seat, and conse- Juently this event with can-idates in that race, is very im-portant to every person in North Carolina. In all likelihood, one of these eight candidates will be running to represent the people of this state in November's general election." The candidates participating in the forum are: Walt Atkins of Graham; Bill Belk of Charlotte; Milton Croom of Raleigh; Katherine Harper of Charlotte; Clinton Moore of Newton; Foun-tain Odom of Charlotte; Gov. Terry Sanford of Durham and Dr. Betty Wallace of Raleigh. According to University Democrat Public Relations Coor-dinator Jonathan Hall, "It is not easy to get eight people from across the state together on one night, and it is especially difficult when those eight people are in the heat of a campaign for statewide office. "In Sanford and Odom, we have two of the candidates thst msny experts see as frontrun-ners in the race. This is s great opportunity for the candidates and the people of Greensboro." The forum will be moderated by Guilford County Democratic Chairman Tom Gilmore, a former state senator and can-didate for governor in 1984. Following introductions by Gilmore, each candidate will answer three prepared ques-tions, then the candidates will answer written questions from the audience snd conclude with two-minute closing remarks. Following the forum, there will be a reception for the candidates, the press and the public. (See Candidate*, page T) Senior events scheduled The CanHalaw has a new csr-tooaist, Gary Wilson. He is a graduate art student from Fsrettrille. Please see a sample of his work on page C. The Alumni Association is planning several events targeted for seniors graduating this spring. In addition to Senior Day, which is scheduled for April 3, the Alumni Association is trying something new this year: a series of three suppers and discussions with panelists who are alumni of UNCG. The dinners are planned for February 11 and 24, and March 24, and are designed to present information that may be helpful to the young graduate. On February 11, the discussion topic will be "How to Survive After Graduation," and will concern practical information about credit, insurance, housing, and other pertinent subjects. The dinners will be held at the Alumni House and will begin at 6 p.m. On February 24, the topic will be "Things I Wish They'd Told Me Before I went out into the Read World." And, lastly, on March 24, the discussion will center sround "Marketing Yourselfsnd Creative Careers." Sarah Long of the Alumni Associstion noted that all these discussions will be led by young alumni from recent years. "We hope seniors will get a sense of the UNCG tradition," said Long. All graduating seniors should receive information and an RSVP firm in the mail. Space is limited to 100 seniors per dinner, snd the deadline for receipt of the reservation form is February 6.

Stewart admits her prices are a little higher than average fare, but says the food is "top of the hne."
