COMING BACK HOME Byrns encourages service


By Beth Thompson
Staff Writer
In residence halls across cam-
pus, students have shelter.
In dining halls, they have food.
To avoid an arrest by the
Department of Public Safety, they
must all have at least a few items
of clothing.
Economics professor Ralph
Byrns kicked off GenerAction
Service Week on Monday by tell-
ing students that without the chal-
lenge of obtaining shelter, food and
clothing, they have time to devote
themselves to another challenge
— improving the lives of those less
fortunate.
“If you go to UNC, you are
lucky,” Byrns told a crowd of
about 30 students in Howell
Hall. “You’re in the top 1 percent
of the world’s population in terms
of what you have. You don’t have
to worry about where your next
meal is coming from, or whether
or not you have clothes.” dth/helen woolard

Summer Language Immersion


The Chinese Immersion Program offers students an
excellent opportunity to immerse fully in the native
language environment and also in Chinese culture.
The program attempts to recreate as much as
possible the immersion experience a student
would have if he or she were traveling and
studying in China, where students would
associate language with the culture.
Students can complete CHIN 101, the
introductory language course, and CHIN
150, a culture course, in the five-week
immersion session. Then in second
session they could take the second
language level to continue their
language instruction.

Attending Summer School before the start


of my freshman year allowed me to get used to
college classes in a more intimate environ-
ment. I was able to focus on classwork and
get a jump start on my academics. I was
able to get used to the campus and college
life while only taking two classes instead
of four or five at one time. It was also
a great opportunity to meet people.
