“Most of us were upset that we
were not informed of the program
before it was announced,” she said.
“I think it has been misrepresented
in the media. The media made it
seem like it was a program set out to
recruit minorities. No one was told
that there was still a long process to
be accepted that would generate
high-quality students.”
During their four years in med

either primary care or rural medi

“I don’t know what all of the air
is about,” Groff said. “It’s never been
a policy that we’ve had to clear
something at our facility.”
Nellson Burns, MSC president
and a senior international studies
major, said the Athletic Department
should have checked with Student
Activities to avoid the conflict.
“Their job isn’t concerts,” Burns
said. “They didn’t go through the
pants to complete selected clerk
ships in their home communities,
depending on available facilities.
Chris Spradley, vice president
of the second-year medical class,
said if the school is willing to put
the resources into the program
they have said they would, the
program will succeed.
“The school is showing leadership
by addressing a big problem in the
state,” he said. "The program may be
frightening to students because it’s
different. Half of the students will be
monitored by the College of Medi
cine. It seems ridiculous to test stu
dents who have been under their
wing for four years.”
process any other group would
have to go to.”
The University requires student
organizations to have scheduled
on-campus events approved by
Student Activities.
Nolan Barkhouse, Class of ’98
president and a senior international
studies major, said he is worried the
concert will cause overcrowding in
the Rudder area and there will not be
enough security for the concert.
“If the concert promoters get what
they expect, there could be 20,000
people at Kyle,” he said. “We’re wor-

Truck sought in clinic bombi
discovered in North Carols
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — A
pickup truck registered to a man
sought as a witness in the nation’s
first fatal abortion clinic bombing
was found Sunday in the woods of
western North Carolina.
Jim Cavanaugh, agent in charge
of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms in Birmingham, said
the 1989 gray Nissan belonging to
Eric Robert Rudolph was found
outside of Murphy, N.C., reported
ly by hunters.
“We still haven’t found Mr.
Rudolph,” Cavanaugh said. “We’ll
get a warrant and take (the truck)
and do what we need to do.”
Authorities had searched for
the truck since Jan. 29, when it was
spotted near the New Woman All
Women Clinic following the blast,
which killed an off-duty police of
ficer and wounded a nurse.
Based primarily on the truck
sighting, a warrant was issued the
next day seeking the arrest of
Rudolph, 31, as a material witness
in the bombing.
Cavanaugh said agents would
ask a federal magistrate in
Asheville, N.C., Monday fora war
rant allowing investigators to seize
and search the vehicle, which has
North Carolina plates.
The search for Rudolph has
concentrated in the rugged moun
tains of the western tip of North
Carolina, where authorities had
