FACE THE FACTS p8ychia Miami \ Raciai/ethnic distribution of the University of Miami's 1989 Freshman ►SRAM HENRKXJEZ/OrapNcs Editor Could Mideast crisis cause tuition increase? By MURIEL SOENENS 8taff Writer The face-off with Iraq in the Middle East could hurt colleges in the United States, including the University of Miami, in a very vulnerable place: their finances. However, according to David Lieberman, University of Miami vice president of busi- . , - ness and finance, “This tuition increase could buameaa officers aay. - The University of Miami is Florida Power and Light’s largest consumer, spending $9 million dollars last year, and because of the Middle East crisis, costs can only go up Lieberman said he thinks the Gulf crisis. not be substantial because our cash position it favorable.” Rising energy costs, and the recession they could bring, could raise the amount it costo to runaUni Jñiversity.

Stagflation ia when there is economic decline, but nevertheless rising prices. However, Lieberman said a direct correlation between the effects of the Gulf crisis and increased tuition ia impossible to predict at the moment. He added that it depends entirely on the duration and severity of the crisis.

The problem ia oil prices, various campus affect UM tuition costa. “If it lasts more than a semester then, possibly, yea they will go up. Either that or they will cut other budgets.” Fishe «rent on to explain that a small increase in tuition ia slightly possible but this would not occur before next year. When fuel coats go up, these coats pass directly to the consumer, but tuition ia two or three steps removed in this cost process. Since Aug. 2, when Iraqi ruler Saddam Hussein invaded the oil-rich emirate of Kuwait and gained control of more than 20 percent of the world'« proven reserves of oil, prices shot up from about $20 a barrel to Pltau s«e page 2/TUITION A FRUITFUL EVENING h re re on a r volunteers.” Butler told the United Way campaign begins By AMY ELLIS EdHorlnChM About 300 members of the University of Miami community gathered in the University Center Flamingo Ballroom yesterday to kick off UM’a campaign to raise $350,000 for the United Way of Dade County. UM Vice President for Student Affairs Dr. William Butler, who has been involved with the United Way for 25 years, is heading up the cam- D urged students to get involved. ‘‘Every year, 1,700 crack babies are bom at Jackson Memorial Hospital,” Foote said. “It’s a sickening tragedy, but it’s the truth. There are people in this community who need help, who desperately want our help, and we muat help them." As part of his involvement in the campaign, Foote has agreed to participate in a “presidential s«ntch.” For half of one day, a student who ia involved in the fundraising effort will get to trade places with the resident of the University.

The United Way of Dade County represents over 70 community service organisations, including the American Red Cross, Goodwill Industries and the Salvation Army. The organisation claims that 83 cents of every dollar given goes directly to helping the needy through its associated agencies. The UM campaign win specifically target agencies devoted to the needs of young people, Butler laid. SG senators discuss constitutional revisions By JOANNA STAVROPOULOS Stall Writer Student Government leaders are to pass what they think will be a “new improved” constitution for their organisation. Over the summer, several members of SG worked with the group’s adviser Dr. Craig Ullom and members of UM General Counsel to revise a document many believed to be confusing and inconsistent. “We wanted it to be clearer and more precise,” explained SG President Irwin Rati. The proposed revisions were discussed at the SG Senate meeting Wednesday. After senators were given one week to peruse the document, the floor was opened for questiona. SG Press Secretary Tom Higgins told the senate that there would be no major changes to the original document, only clarifications. Senators discussed several of the pro- keeping all SG meetings open to the student body. Some senators felt these changes were too broad. One student who is not a member of SG was at the meeting Wednesday to voice his opposition to the proposed changes. Dale Reed, a junior, distributed to the senators a hat of his objections which were sponsored by Stanford Residential College Senator Fred Green. In the statement, Reed objected to the the proposals to give additional power to the election commissions chairperson and also to allow the University’s president to appoint a designee who would then have the power to delegate authority to SG. Dispute ends with arrest By BETH JAHREIS Associate News Editor A University of Miami student waa arrested by the Coral Gabies Police Department on the evening of Sept. 9 in Mahoney Residential College and charged with one count of aggravated battery. Gary Borkon, a freshman in the School of Business Administration, stabbed hia suitemate, Jason Underwood, in the hand with a screwdriver. According to police reports, Borkon returned to his adjoining room following the incident and threw the screwdriver from the window onto the lower roof. Borkon'a roommate, freshman David Shechter, said the incident followed an argument and physical confrontation. According to the Coral Gables Police Department, the charges have not been dropped by Understood. Borkon waa transported to the Dade County Jail by the responding officers. Underwood was taken to Doctor’s Hoapital for further treatment. Racist newspapers reappear By MARY LEA HARDESTY 8taf( Writer Pamphlets promoting white supremacy have been spotted again this semester on the University of Miami campus. Newspapers and flyers from both the White Aryan Resistance (W.A.R) and the Church of the Creator have been seen around the campus as recently as last week. Several copies of Racial Loyally, which updates readers of race-related newt, were found Sept. 7 in the Ibia cafeteria. The issue covered the “hoax of the Holocaust” among other topics. One of the articles on the front page described a murder of a 28-year-okl "blond and blue-eyed, white woman” who was “attacked, , beaten, tortured, mutilated, _____and dismembered by a nigger savage.” The paper focused solely on Crimea committed by “non-white” people. Members of the Hillel Jewish Student Center say they are concerned about the W.A.R. movement. Rabbi Louis Feldatein said the work of the Aryan Youth Move- ment should not be ignored, but rather, should be taken seriously. Feldstein said he believes a member of the resistance group came on campus to distribute the group’s information. “We think that someone posed aa a student early in the morning and posted the advertisements,” Feldstein said. “However, skinheads, who are an may or may not movement,” ay not Feld- UM Bookstore prices competitive? Store director: We don’t try to compete with K-Mart By MICHAEL R. MORRIS 018TT writer Shopping at the University of Miami Bookstore may be convenient, but it may alao carry a high price. In a comparison of the UM store, bookstores at Miami Dade Community College and Barry University, Office Depot and K-Mart, the UM bookstore proved to have the widest selection, but often times alao had the steepest prices. Items surveyed ranged from batteries and marking pens to surge protectors. In no caae was the UM Bookstore cheaper. In some caaea, as much as $11.23 could have been saved by shopping elsewhere. The UM Bookstore does offer a wide selection, carring several items that weren't available from other stores surveyed. “I don’t try to compete «nth K-Mart or Office Depot,” said Charles Canfield, director of the UM Bookstore. Canfield laid he buy» from the »ame distrib- utor* aa Miami-Dade and talks regularly with the directors of both the Miami-Dade and Barry bookstores. “There may be tome difference in price if they’ve bought something on sale,” Canfield said. "But we try to keep the same pricea they do.” Canfield explained that various suppliers, such aa DuraceU, occasionally have sales. Because these large companies don't forewarn buyers, consumable items like batteries and tapes may differ in price from bookstore to bookstore, even though both are served by the time supplier Thus, a 4-pack of DuraceU AA batteries costa $4.95 at UM, while at Barn, it’s available for $3.69. A trip to Office Depot will yield the batteries at $2.72. Office Depot, however, doesn’t offer much selection ting brands of merchandise.
