Carolina students can anticipate changes in this year's
Homecoming Outdoor Concert with regard to the buying and
drinking of beer on the premises, according to Student Activities
Director Jerry Brewer.
"The Homecoming Commission requested and came up
with the plans for the selling of beer at the concert," he said.
The concert, scheduled for 4 p.m. Friday on Field A, features
The Producers and Cruise-O-Matics.
Identification cards will be checked at the gate and students
will be given a wristband for $1, displaying their legal age.
With the wristband, students will be able to purchase $1 beer.
Only one beer at a time will be sold to each person.
In past years students could take coolers with their own
beverages to the concert. With the change in the drinking age,
the Homecoming Commission had to revise the Policy to fit
university and state regulations.
"We feel it (the selling of beer at the concert) will be within
i j i m n * 1
state law ana our policies on campus, nrewer saiu.
The University Policy on Use of Alcohol states "consumption
or displays of beer, wine, or distilled spirits is not permitted
in public areas of University owned facilities..., except as
stated below: 1. When registered for a specific group function
for beer and wine with the appropriate department."
The Homecoming Commission is also providing protective
measures for people at the show.
The show is scheduled to last for three hours. Beer sales will
stop after two and a quarter hours to give those who may have
drank too much time to sober up," Brewer said. The commision
will also provide rides home.
A team of students called "Beer Busters" will patrol the
area, making sure beer drinkers are of legal age. Anyone
drinking without a wristband will be asked to pour out the
beer. Repeat offenders will be removed from the eoneert area.
"We want students to be able to make their own choice
about what they want to drink," Brewer said, "and we don't
feel it should be the emphasis of the event."
"The main focus of this event is to listen to the bands, have
a coke, beer or hot dog on a Friday afternoon and celebrate
homecoming," Brewer said.

Glenn German's most embarassing
moment so far as Student Government
president came when he sat down ?n a
seafood restaurant in Brussells,
Rplpiuni. this nasi summer with US(
""""O" ? i
President James Holderman and four
other university officials.
When the waiter came to take their
drink order, German tried to impress
his older dinner companions by ordering
beers in French for himself and the
man next to him.
"Alter I ordered, the waiter just
stood there and smiled at me. It turns
| out 1 had said, 'We will be two beers.'
President Holderman ribbed me for
everything 1 was worth," German
said.

I raising trip. He also invited uerman to
attend a dinner with him in New York
eiiy this summer as part of an
organizational meeting for the univerSsity's
Summit Fund project.
Invitations like these are expected
for someone who represents a student
| body as large as USC's, but German
said he wants to be perceived as just a
regular student.
"I'm no better than any other student.
I go drink beers, go to the movies
and sleep late just like anybody else,"
in said German, 2.2, of Greenville.

president, German does not wear the
traditional coat and tie when in his
office.
"PAST SG presidents have always
worn coats and ties and seemed so
non-studentish to me. I always keep
my office door open and wear sweatshirts
and shorts ? even if it means I
have to change several times a clay for
meetings or lunches," said German,
\s ho also prefers to talk to people in his
otficeat a closer range than from
behind his desk in the big, black executive
chair provided for him.
German, president of the Carolina
Program Union last year, had no
previous involvement in student
government and held a negative view
of the organization's role before he
decided to run for office last January.
"If you had asked me what student
government Was last fall, I couldn't
have answered," he said. "All I knew
was that they had a lot of money and
allocated budgets."
His perception has changed since he
took office last March after winning
the position in a run-off election with
Tony Snell. German said he hopes to
shed a brighter light on the role of student
government for other students.
"I TIIINK student government is in
a position to have great impact on the
university. We want to get some

German said.
To gain this exposure. German is using
the university's S35 million Summit
I un J project ? a project he hopes will
leave a permanent mark on the university
from the 19K4 student body.
"We wanted to do a project that
would stay around forever. I heard
about the Summit fund and how the
faculty and staff gave over SI million.
I decided it was the students' turn to
contribute and we set a goal of
$100,000," he said.
