becoming a more academic
institution and s'udenLs are in

change through the Student
Advisory Council, which serves
as liaison between students and
the Board Through the Coun

ment but have problems wheth
er it be in academics or meal
tickets or parking

the quality of education, he

reen McLaughlin, advisor to
the faculty-course evaluation
project, as being responsible

wi'l be re-evaluated to be sure
the zone system is the best way
of handling parking Unregis

pus by the increase in parking
fines, the students body presi
dent said
The government hopes to
close off inter-campus traffic if
the city mayor and council will
cooperate in closing Baldwin

Bus fees have been lowered
from ten to five cents and
transportation should be free
by next year, he said
Hurley, who is working with
the orientation program this

incoming freshmen He said, he
anticipated more of a change in
them, but basically they are a
cross-section from throughout
Georgia
APPROXIMATELY IN new
black students arc among the
incoming freshmen Asked why
there were not more, Hurley
replied, "A lot don't want to
come here and face the situa
tion they may have to face
There are still a lot of bigots on
campus
Students are also getting
away from the social and Greek
influence, he said, "but ihe
Greeks shouldn t die out They
have a 'ot to offer and are need
ed "
Hurley said he expected
some problems on campus this
year in the form of demonstra
tions and protests but did not
know what would precipitate
them or how strong they would
be It would depend upon situa
tions winch may arise, he said

drawing to a close as the new Education

help reduce crowded classroom condi
tions besides providing the latest inova
tions for the Education school Baldwin
Hall, on north campus, now houses the
school. The field of Education is one of
the most often chosen majors for Uni
versity students
Better communication is the
desire of Monroe Kimbrel.
president of the University of
Georgia Alumni Society for
1970-71
"I would hope we could es
tablish important communica
turn between faculty, adminis
tration. student body, alumni,
and citizens of Georgia." he
said
"I think if we are all under
standing of the goals, and di
rect ourselves in that direction,
they can be accomplished, he
added
THE FIRST STEP in provid
mg better communication took
place Aug 1-2. at Rock Eagle
Park when a group of young
alumni meet with Kimbrel and
other members to discuss
what cuukf be done to be more
effective as an organization ami
to help present students at the
University

could be done to help present
students is the construction of a
new student union, he said
When asked about the possi
bility of the Alumni Society
supporting such construction
Kimbrel said. "It has not been
discussed much in the past, but
it will be pursued
He said there is definitely a
need for a new student union
"1 AM PROUD of the growth
and present position of the Uni
versity in higher education." he
emphasized
He feels that by improving
communication and involving
more of the younger alumni in
association work that progress
can continue and improve.
Concerning present campus
unrest. Kimbrel said that so
far, such events bn the Univer
sity campus "were handled
superbly Great credit goes to
the mass of students.

"Mr Kimbrel long has been
an active supporter of the Uni

ni programs Based on this in
terest and his outstanding busi
ness experience, he will contin
ue to give the Alumni Society the
same line leadership that it has
had for many years." said Ty-
