However, we have not seen any concrete figures or account sheets, so therefore we certainly feel that increases beyond this point would be unacceDtahlp anH unfair tn student at Carolina." In August, the researchers estimated that there was an overall price increase of 7 per cent the additional per cent being used as a safeguard in case of emergency.

"We're meeting mainly to make certain that the increase in cost is justified and to insure that the students' interest was represented in the decision," Rodgers said. "I fought this increase all summer. I spoke with Mr. Hottel (of ARA) several times to discuss alternatives to the proposed increase. After receiving his figures we found that the 6 per cent increase was justified and that the additional 1 per cent was to be used as safeguard. "At this moment we believe thai there is nothing else that we car do. If there was some way to fight, I would," she said. IMLS ^ I 9 A.M.
