100 Lose Room , 60 Students By AMY JACOVES Hurricane staff Writer Over sixty UM students have yet to receive housing on campus. They are still living at the University Inn According to George Shoffner, director of Housing, housing officials began moving some students on campus last Tuesday. Shoffner said that all of the 20 students from the Howard Johnson's have been moved out and are now living on campus. "We moved these students out first because there are fewer of them and they are more detached from campus,” Shoffner said. Of the 160 students who were at the University Inn. 100 students have been moved onto campus. Shoffner said that they are moving the students on campus according to the date that his office recieved their housing application. He also said that they were trying to grant the students their specific requests for a particular building However, most of the students have been moved into the 960 and 1968 complexes. “There were as many as 100 students reassigned to places on campus as of last Monday,” Dr. William Butler, vice president for Student Affairs said. Shoffner said that they are trying to move the stu- Left At Inn dents out of the hotel in pairs. Some of the students requested to be housed with someone whom they met at the Inn. “We tried to honor their requests as best as we could. But. that was rather difficult because most of the rooms wre only half empty,” Shoffner said According to Shoffner, the 60 students who are still at the University Inn should be on campus by mid-October He said that there is a certain amount of guesswork involved when students apply for housing as they must decide how many students will show up. This year, Residence Halls overbooked by 8 percent of their full housing capacity. The reason that it takes so long for the students to get into permanent housing is that an individual's space is held until after late registration Shoffner said that students are stil arriving. According to Shoffner, although there are mixed feelings on the part of students staying at the University Inn, there are relatively few complaints. "Some students want to stay there,” Shoffner said Shoffner didn't know exactly when the remaining students will be moved in. “At this point, we have to depend on attrition to create the vacancies in the buildings," Shoffner said Miami Hurricane paula baisd Students \re Still lr\iii" |<> \|<»\e luto Dorms . . . hi) ni I niter sit \ Inn will be oioieil mil during October ‘79 Called To Order Miami Hurricane BRIAN GART Students \nd Administrators Vt Dialogue 197*J ... pertinent issues concerning I M are discusseli Dialogue Miami Hurricane ELLEN MULLIGAN Avi Hoffman shines in 'The Sly Fox' which opened at the Ring on Wednesday.

MARCUS M.wt Editor In an effort to open communications between the Administration and undergraduates, Dialogue 1979, a student forum, was held last week.

The meeting is attended by all major department heads, administrative vice presidents, UM President Henry King Stanford, members of the Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG), and undergraduate students. At Dialogue ‘79, the major issues discussed were the athletic deficit, parking lot vandalism, residence hall "overbooking,” Computerized Advanced Registration System (CARS), tuition rebate plan, biweekly payroll for students and policy on political speakers on campus. According to Vice President for Student Affairs, Dr. William Butler, the Dialogue meetings have proven to be “very helpful in the past." Dialogue meetings are to be planned for the future, with the time to be established by USBG and the Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs. By PETER HAMM Hurricane Staff Writar A preliminary meeting of the newly-chartered "Task Force on Apartment Area Development” was held last week. The Task Force, created by UM President Henry King Stanford, discussed future plans for the development of the land on which campus apartments are situated. Stanford said that the purpose of the new committee is threefold: • “To examine the alternatives for residence life in the apartment area, which includes single student and married student housing units on the campus. • “To make a careful analysis of the costs associated with these alternatives examined and to provide recommendations for the financing of each alternative. • “To list the alternatives in priority order and make recommendations as to the appropriate time table for implementation of the alternatives.” On the Inside The group is chaired by Vice President for Student Affairs Dr William Butler and consists of members of the administration, as well as concerned residence halls personnel and student representatives from married housing and student housing, and Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG) President Paul Novack. ■Our first m«etipg was an organizational one. We discussed the findings of the special consultants that the University called in, and have set a target of three months to arrive at a plan of action," Butler said. “The committee's work is essential to the University’s future. UM must improve its residence facilties. especially the apartment buildings. Students are just not satisfied with what they are getting in facilties.” Novack said. The recommendations of the consultants, employed by the Real Estate Corporation, suggested the organization of the task force. They believe that the University area property, which will be impacted by a new metrorail rapid transit system, should not be commercially developed at this time. The new rapid transit system is being constructed between Ponce de l.eon Boulevard and US-1. Since the University Station will be located directly across from a nine-acre strip of apartment buildings, Butler and the group believe that the property will become a more essential area of campus than it is currently. The apartment complex is currently divided into three sections: one adjacent to Eaton Hall, one next to Ponce de Leon, and a third area located across US-1 next to the University Inn. known as the University Park Apartments. Recent renovations include improvements in the Honors dorm. International house, and the Athletic dorm.
