'The group will also consider having a study lounge and a visiting lounge in the new in firmary which is on the Univer sity 's list of new buildings. It has also been suggested to require' students to have a physical their third year similar to the one reqluired for entrance. "When this leaves the Senate.

Bv TV KEI.l,EY~ Staff Writer Getting a c'ollege education and being married at the same time can be a formidable challenge, but most couples on campus believe that the ad vantages outweigh the hear taches. Married students cited the three major problems of budgeting money, caring for a child. if there is one, and finding time to study 1Tom Otrick, a journalism major, stated, "When you're married it's necessary to live on a budget. At times it's tough buyinlg clothes, food and paying the rent and taxes liowever, with a good budget and careful planning there's still money left over for fun." Tony Fusaro. USC varsity football player, also remarked on budgeting money and being married "My wife and I definitely have to watch our ,money situation. Most people Sdon't realize that N.C.A.A. rules Sprohibit athletes on scholar' s. 'hipsi to have jobs." SFritz Gibson, chairman of the unMrried Studnts Government Rule by d( By FRED MONK Asst. Managing Editor "To make Carolina a more liveable place"---that is the goal of the recent University rules revisions discussed so far by Student Government's Special Residence Hall Commission established earlier this month. The commission is taking the University rules categorically and suggesting revision to update the rules to present University life. It is also making recom mendations on reforms and ad dition to the rules to improve University living. The revisions will be formulated at the end of the sessions and submitted to the vice president for student affairs, dean of men and dean of women, who must approve the revisions before the rules change. RULES MORALIZE "University rules seem to be moralizing which is none of their business," said Ed McFadden, vice president of Men's Towers, raising the question, "Is it a privilege or a restriction to live in the dorms?" The commission, which is presently just considering the section on residence halls, has suggested that the University revisesome of the rules. RULE SUGGESTIONS All students may reside off campus except freshmen under 21 unless they have served in the military. are married or live with a blood relative. Women under 21 must have parental permission. This would change the present rules which stipulate that fresh man and sophomore males and all single women not living with parents or relatives are required to live on campus. Some exceptions are also stated. The residence hall judicial council should make recom mendations to the dean of men concerning the dismissal of a student from that particular residence area. INSU'RE STUDIENT This section was added to insure that the student who was disciplined in that area would be justly treated and whether the problem he presented warranted ed lije Association(MSGA), added. "With taxes. insurance, rent and paying for the nursery. there's always a drain on my pocketbook" Many marrie'd students must work full time while attending school to make ends meet. Doug Lewis. arts and science major. pointed out. "There's always bills, and with a job very little time remains for studying." Having a child and going to college can he a very serious drawback. Bill Rinz, majoring in Chemical Engineering noted, "When my wife is at work and I'm studying and caring for the baby. 30 minutes of complete silence means my daughter is up to something she shouldn't be." Rinz also remarked on the University's Kiddie Kampus nursery. "If you can't get your child into that center any other nursery in town will cost twice as much," he asserted. Presently Kiddie Kampus Nursery has a capacity for 40 children. Diavid Phillips, of the Uiniversity Uinion andsupennr chang >rm pi removal from the residence hall area totally. One question asked brought about a debate whether a student who is suspended from a residence hall area should be suspended from school. The commission decided that the individual judicial council should concern itself with whether such recommendations should be made. DORM CLOSING Students must receive at least one semester's notice beofre the Housing Office can close a residence hall. This provision was added after complaints from Pete Reed, president of Maxcy, who said the students in Thornwell college were being forced to move from that area so the University could shut it down for the spring semester. The shutting down of Thornwell has occurred several times in the past four years in the spring when the University has a decrease in the number of dormitory residents. ROOM FEE There should be a maximun limit of one-third total room fee set for advanced deposits. This would lower the room fee deposit from the present $100 rate, which is almost 70 per cent of the total room fee in some areas. "Many students are here on loans, work their way through school or have to wait for their grants to be accepted," Chuck Dallara. chairman of the com mittee said. "and $100 is just too much for people to pay at one time.. no business in Columbia requires a person to put that much of a deposit (70 per cent) on any item. The group also recommended that the refund date for the fall semester he set back to August I from June 15 to allow students to have one semester of summer school to decide whether a room will be needed or to give the student who is not in summer school ample time to decide whether or not he will need that room The commission agreed that the present inspection system of rooms is outdated and un nec'essa.ry. s advar~ visor of the program. an nounced that his organization has reqluested two more rooms. one at 1'niversity Terrace and another at Woodland Terrace. ''It is our hope to have facilities for an additional 100 children sometime in the near future The problem is that we can't get the needed money from the administration for renovation to meet basic Public Welfare requirements.'' Phillips said Pierre Kaufke. of University Terrace and gradIuate assistant in English. commented on the trouble to get his daughter to the campus nursery each morning. "It means getting up very ear ly and fighting the rush hour traffic all the way over to Beltline Boulevard and back." Besides the inconvenience of taking the children from University Terrace or Carolina Gardens. transportation doesn't seem to pose too much of a problem for most married students. Couples at Woodland Terrace and the other housing complexes form car pools, and es sou 'esidei NEATNESS They suggested that "neatness should be left up to the individual student unless the situation becomes hazardous to the health of the surrounding students.

"Married students seem to understand each other's problems. and are quick to act."' he asserted in many respects living at 11iniversity' Terrace has only one dlistinct advantage, being on campus~ close to classes Kaufke complained. "I wasted one entire day moving my furniture to the center of the rooms so that the Orkin men could spray near the walls. They sprayed and the cockroaches and ants are still here " l.isting advantages of being married the two main factors lean toward responsibility and maturity. Having a wife and children makes a student responsible not only to himself hut to his family. Tom Olrick emphasized, "Being married helped me to achieve my goals quicker. I'm now much more serious about school, gradton and the Lght its eliminated." the commission recommended. The commission also adopted the women's rule concerning food which stated it should be properly contained. This would abolish the present food rule in the University rule book. w- ais nmarun vet her pares to sing before a group it the Four Holes Freedom -'oups .5,000 With all student groups given a sho! to request money from the surplus.

Mary- Ellen, and I can face the pressure of suc ceeding as one We can talk over our troubles instead of writing home" Frnt? Gibson's wife. Ava. suggested. "With marriage and school comes responsibility and the incentive to try harder." Several married students admitted that having their own home was a reward in itself, a place away from the constant noises of dormitory living. Others liked the idea of escaping Slater cooking in preference to what the little wife could do in the kitchen. Some relished the thought of having a mate to do the laun dry Every married student knows the toy of being constantly near the person he or she loves, of being close to one's family and being able to meet the challenge of responsibilities. Perhaps Tony F'uaaro best stated the advantages of being married and going to Carolina, "It's a3 wonderful feeling to come home to a wife and family."J
