raised concern by some student
representatives over establishing a
precedent in this area.
Wapner received $400, allocated
directly from SG funds, to support
her trip this summer to Africa
through a program called
"Operation Crossroads." The
funds were - allotted on the
condition that she would report j
back to Student Government and i
university departments on her i
trip, according to SG President i
Seamus O'Boyle.

Wapner said.
"If no one has ever approached
the senate before, I don't think
everyone will do so now that I
have," Wapner said.
Wapner pointed out that she has
contributed to the university
through the College of Health and
Physical Education, and works
with the mental health service on
campus. She also spoke to the
representatives to convince them
of the trip's benefits for the
university.
"Anything that we fund would
have to affect the Carolina community
as a whole/' O'Boyle said.
Wapner will probably be
presenting her program in
November and it will be open to
