Wat (Eartflmtatt J est. 1919 CAS rt!&c Volume 74, Issue 45 The University ofNorth Carolina at Greensboro Friday, April 14,1996 Students fighting violence By DALE LEONARD Senior News Writer The sixth annual March Against Violence was held on Tuesday, April 11. "Every four hours, an Afri-can- American child is murdered. Every 6 hours, a white Ameri-can child is murdered. The num-ber one concern of every person in our neighborhoods is the fear ofviolence. It's a real fear and a real danger. There has been a steep increase in sex violence here in Greensboro over the last five years. The Governor's Re-port on Safety says that acts of violence have almost qua-drupled in the last ten years... violence is at epidemic propor-tions," said Dr. Sheree Marshall. The program and march be-gan at the Plaza. The event was sponsored by Peer Helpers Ad-vancing Sexuality Education (PHASE II), the Student Gov-ernment Association, Campus Activities Board, Women's Lead-ership Coalition, Zeta Phi Beta sorority, Alpha Delta Pi sorority, Tobacco USA, and the Health Education and Wellnesa Center, which is part of the Student Health Center. Marshall, of the department of Human Development and Family Studies, was the keynote speaker. During her address, she asked listeners to carefully consider how the public defines violence, and to think about the acts of violence that they have personally witnessed. Marshall has been research-ing the causes and effects ofvio-lence in our area and said, "We need to understand the nature of violence in our community. Human development comes from a variety offactors, and we cannot understand violence without recognizing the influ-ences of home life." Marshall stated that her re-search was still in the early stages and that she is in the pro-cess ofdefining the problem and receiving input from community members. After Marshall's address, Dr. Barton Parka and community activist Tracey Lucas conducted an interactive listening exercise with the group.

Phi Beta Kappa inducts 29 students By KERRIE KOSLOWE StaffWriter At UNCG's 61st annual Phi Beta Kappa initiation in the Alumni House on April 10, 29 new members received the Phi Beta Kappa key. According to William Goode, vice president of the Epsilon chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, who explained the key's significance to the 29 new members, the Phi Beta Kappa gold key represents the love of wisdom and noble sentiments. The induction ceremony was held to honor the achievements ofthe seniors graduating in 1995 who have demonstrated out-standing achievement in the lib-eral arts. The new Phi Beta Kappa members are: Lawrence Dwayne Bowlin, Daniel Sinclair Burleson, Valarie Lynne Clark, Heidi Kristine Czerwiec, Wendy Lorraine Davis, Cescili Aurelia Drake, Amy Elizabeth French, Jesse Hughes Hastings, Tracey Louise Huckabee, Charles Brentley Johnston, Sangwon Jung, Kathryn Marie Kluttz, Catherine Elizabeth LaCava, Esther Rebecca Landis, Sara Marilyn Lauritzen, Darren Alan McDonough, Veaney Nichole Mclrvin, Alyssa Rose Miller, Linda Scott Mills, Teena Marie Murray, Beverly Ann Pittillo, Richard Racz, Chesley von Ancken Schmidt, Rebecca Suzane Shouse, John Robert Smerznak, Jr., Darren Livingston Stelle, Rebecca Ann Sutorious, Brenda Gail Teaff, and Daniel Lennon Wood. Only six institutions in North Carolina have chapters of Phi Beta Kappa: Wake Forest Uni-versity, The University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University, Duke University, Davidson College, and UNCG. Several of the new inductees said they were glad to be part of the event. "It was an honor to be part ofit," biology major and new in-ductee LaCava said. "It was great to see so many people I came to college with [here]," Czerwiec said. Provost Donald DeRoaa con-gratulated the new Phi Beta Kappa members and said that initiation into the fraternity is "an opportunity to celebrate the traditions of the University and accomplishments made by the new members to help advance UNCG." Chancellor Patricia Sullivan also congratulated the new Phi Beta Kappa members and said she is proud of their achieve-ment. "I hope you will continue to be scholars and find ways to enrich the total life of the community," Sullivan said. Phi Beta Kappa was estab-lished at the College of William and Mary in 1776 and today has chapters worldwide. Following the induction cer-emony, composer George Rochberg, who holds six doctoral degrees, delivered an address titled "The Dance of the Polar Opposites: Symmetry andAsym-metry in Music."
