LSD Found In Pearson Hall Room Search
By LORI BARR1ST
Mswt Editor
A small quantity of amphetamines, marijuana, hashish, drug paraphernalia, and about 50 hits of I.SD were recovered from a Pearson Hall room Wednesday in an administrative search.
No arrests were made because the room resident fled before Public Safety and residence halls officials started the search.
According to Curtis Ivy, director of law enforcement at UM. the search was the result of information obtained in connection with the arrest of two non-students earlier that day.
Printer Blamed For Delay
By JACQUELINE FARFAN

The first publication of the Kail Schedule Bulletins which were released on March 24 contained printer errors.
No exam schedules were printed, and according to Robert Fuerst, director of Academic Services, this error was noted and corrected in the second publication of the bulletin.
“We had to meet a delivery date," Fuerst said, and the printer made several errors at the last minute. "I told them to go ahead. Our computer program didn't work. I made the decision to make sure the book would be here on time.”
“To go back and do it over would have cost a week. I know it looked like hell, and I made the decision to make sure the students had it,” Fuerst said
An additional 10,000 exam schedules were air-freighted to supplement the deficient bulletins.
In addition to the missing exam shedule, there was no division between the morning and evening sections, as bulletins for the past fall and spring had. The bulletin also lacked a cover.
Fuerst said they were printing
3.000	seperate copies solely for the night students. Even though the night section was excluded, night classes are still listed with the day classes. He also said costs would be cut because pages were eliminated from thousands of books, and only
3.000	books will be printed.
Classes held in the Memorial
Building were numbered after the old system, with a division between north and south. In the fall, the building will have a new numbering system with MM and the room number preceeding it. There will be no north or south divisions.
According to Fuerst, they made every effort to do the right thing when there were problems with the printing "We recuperated the best we could to help the students.” F'uerst explained that these bulletins were “delivered primarily to make sure students had class schedules for advising."
The two non-students were found wandering around the seventh floor of Pearson allegedly going door-to-door looking for drugs. UM Public Safety arrested them and charged them with trespassing, burglary, and possession of narcotics.
“The information we had concerning drug traffic on the sixth floor was provided by the two off-campus people who had gone there (to room 6620) to make some sort of deal. That’s where they got their ludes (quaaludes)," said Sergeant Han Salerno.
Salerno said that in response to that information, Public Safety sent an undercover policewoman to the
room to make a buy.
"We heard there was a bag of more than 100 ludes up there," Salerno said.
Mahoney/Pearson Complex Director Kevin Keltz said that a quantity of cocaine was also thought to be in the room.
“It is a known fact that he was a dealer,” said Keltz. referring to Dean Goldgar, one of the residents in room 6620.
Keltz said that the other resident had been moved out because of disciplinary problems.
According to Salerno, the attempted buy by the policewoman never went through and she left. "We then called the complex direc-
tor (Keltz) and asked him to go through with an administrative search."
Keltz went to Residence Halls and applied for permission to make a search of the room. According to Keltz, the University rules proside that any graduate assistant (GA) or complex director may search a student’s room with permission from the residence halls office
Salerno estimated that approximately 45 minutes to an hour passed until the administrative search was started.
"We watched the room. The ludes possibly went out through the suitemates’ room," Salerno said
Keltz said that Goldgar was aware that police were in the building and that a search was pending. “He just disappeared, and no one has seen him in the past few days. Rumors have it that he was afraid that he was going to be arrested."
Salerno said the student moved out "lock, stock, and barrel."
“This was only the first or second search in Mahoney/Pearson this year,” Keltz said.
Recovered were four bongs, two pipes, amphetamines, hashish, and marijuana. In one of the bongs there was a package containing 50 hits of LSD.
“This is the first LSD we’ve seen in a few years on campus," Salerno said.
Residents have noticed Public
Safety walking around the sixth floor in recent days. "They seem to be up here every night," said one floor resident who asked not to be identified.
Ivy said that the names and room numbers of some of the sixth floor residents had been brought to his attention from other students and from those arrested in connection with drugs.
“The sixth floor hasn’t been targeted. Our activities have brought
us there," Ivy said.
Salerno said that Public Safety is cracking down on dealers. "During
our investigations (of other crimes) we are coming up with narcotics information and following it up We’re just trying to stop the dealing, not the average student with one joint."
Keltz said that there is a strong possibility that more administrative searches will be conducted in Mahoney/Pearson. He identified the fifth floor Mahoney as another place where there is heavy drug use.
As for Goldgar, "He will face disciplinary action if we ever find him," Keltz said

Mahoney Hall was the scene of a narcotics bust Friday afternoon when UM Public Safety officers served a search warrant on two residents.
Bruce Snyder and James Freeman of room 501 were arrested at about 4:45 p.m. Friday after Public Safety Officer Pat Condon obtained a search warrant from a circuit court judge. Approximately two ounces of marijuana and assorted implements were seized in the search.
According to Public Safety Sergeant Dan Salerno, Freeman was charged with possession of marijuana. Snyder was charged with possession and obstruction of a search.
They were both taken to the Dade County Jail, where they were bailed out by the UM Student Rights Agency.
Salerno said that the information leading to the arrests was obtained by the arresting officer.
"We’ve been getting information from various sources. If we get information that someone’s dealing,
we're going to stop them from dealing." Salerno said.
He said that there is no task force set up to arrest drug dealers and that they are not only concentrated in the Mahoney/Pearson complex.
"We have different people obtaining information and acting on it."
When questioned whether the UM department of Public Safety
employs narcs, Salerno declined comment.
"We're just one agency here. The Coral Gables Narcotics Department and Metro could also be working here. But I'm not saying that they are," he said.
According to Complex Director Kevin Keltz. Public Safety may not be through with their investigation of drug traffic on the fifth floor.

Green Hud irei Role

Dr. John Green, former executive Ivice president for Administration land Finance, recently wrote a letter ■to the Miami Herald, which appeared in Sunday's sports section.
The letter was in answer to state-nents which appeared in the Herald lhat suggested that the reasons be-nind the $500,000 overextension of >he athletic department's budget \nd the elimination of positions from the athletic department were [unrealistic budgeting" by Green.
Before examining Green's answers. it is necessary to supply *>me background information.
I Green was brought into the University in 1976, when he took full .control of all financial matters dealing with the University. These jn-
cluded intercollegiate athletics,' business affairs, computer services personnel, public safety, developmental affairs, and internal auditing.
In the late spring of 1979 Green resigned, in order to enter the real estate business in San Diego, California.
According to UM President Dr. Henry King Stanford at the time of Green's retirement, ", . . he developed five year financial projections . . . When Dr. Green arrived, men's intercollegiate athletics were placed in a new division which he was invited to head.”
The activities that Green was in charge of then were split up and assigned to four different department heads.

field.
The USBG External Response l egislation resolves "that the UM not permit the IM Field to be included in the parking plans for the proposed stadium."
According to Stanford, there were no definite plans to use the field as a parking lot, and "response from Mr. (Norm) Parsons (director of Campus Sports and Recreation) developed strong and justifiable positions for development of the intramural field for current uses, I have determined that approval of this legislation would be premature at this time," Stanford said.
“No proposal to use the field for parking has been considered by any University body which has the authority to make such a decision," Stanford said.
Parsons feels that although the Stanford vetoed the bill, it made the administration aware of how the

students feel, and. therefore, legislation was important.
“I think that what the legislation did do was make the athletic department and the president aware as to how strongly the students feel about their only recreational sports field that they have on campus and the importance of the programming that occurs on the field," Parsons said.
USBG President Paul Novack said that there was substantial evidence to justify the legislation.
According to Parsons, the athletic department “has prepared a
multi-colored pamphlet that indicated the places for parking" and that the intramural field was slated as a proposed sight. The pamphlet said that there would be 10,000 on-campus parking spaces and that 1,000 of these are on the IM field.
“We have seen evidence of plans for parking on the IM field. We do not approve of these plans, and there is ample reason to think that such parking would seriously impair normal use of the field," No-\ack said.
Parsons said that there are 27 sprinkler heads on the field that
could break. Each costs $100.
In addition, with rain, the field could be damaged extensively by breaking up the grass. As a result, the field would not be able to be used for a long period of time.
Also, during a game. Parsons said that many students might want to throw a frisbee, but with parking, that can’t happen.
Stanford said that if a proposal were to be submitted for parking on the Intramural Field, the Master Plan Committee, a standing University Committee appointed by the president responsible for such planning, would be made aware of the students’ feelings.
“In the event that such proposals were to be made, the University is to involve students, specifically Undergraduate Student Body Government and the Campus Sports and Recreation Advisory Board or their equivalents in deliberations on this matter," Stanford said.

Basic Grants Good If Yon Transfer

One of the financial aid programs that is avalable to UM students but can be applied to any university is the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (BEOG).
After students fill out the financial aid form, they can make a request on the form to be considered for BEOG. Then a Student Eligilibi-ty Report (SER) is mailed back to the student to measure his eligibility on an index.
According to Barbara Kay, assistant director of financial aid, the lower the index, the higher the grant. The index is not measured in a dollar amount; it is determined by the University's cost of education and the student's enrollment status
“Most students receive the maximum amount they are entitled to mainly because of the high cost of an education (at UM)," Kay said.
After students receive the SER form in the mail, all three copies
Financial Aid
must be turned into the Financial Aid Office. Following processing, the student will get a copy back.
When students receive their copy of the SER form, Kay said, it should be reviewed carefully to make sure it’s accurate. If there is a mistake, corrections can be made directly on the eligibility form, which can then be mailed back to the basic grant office (the address is on the form). The basic grant office will then process the new form and send the student a copy.
According to Kay, when students receive the grant, it can be submitted to any school, not necessarilv at
UM.
The basic grants annual amount per student range from a minimum of $200 to a maximum of $1.800 Students can receive BEOG up to
four years (or for five years if students are in a five year program ) In order to continue receiving BEOG, students must maintain a satisfactory academic school status.
Part-time students can apply for BEOG only if they are seeking a degree.
This year, according to Kay, it is estimated that approximately 2.987 students will receive BEOG. The grants, which do not have to be paid back, are funded with about $3.9 million of federal funds.
If a student has a problem concerning the BEOG — such as needing another copy of the SER form, having questions as to when the SER form was processed, or needing to notify the office of a change of address — basic grant's toll free number is 800-553-6350
In the last series, various finan-
cial aid programs that were still available this summer and next fall were discussed These include the College Work, Study Program, that offers on- and off-campus jobs to over 2,000 students, the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, which is based on exceptional financial need, the UM Honor Scholarship, for students who have demonstrated need and at least a 3.0 GPA. and the National Direct Student Loan, through which students can receive up to $5,000 over a four year period.
In the first financial aid series, students were informed about Florida Grants and Vouchers. Student who have been Florida residents for the past two years can still apply for the Florida State Assistant Grant, which offers up to $1.200 every year, and the Florida Tuition Voucher, which is worth up to $750 each year
