However many students say they ex- pect the transition back to normal college life to be any- thing but simple. The tragedy has left uni- versity officials scrambling to fend off what they fear might be a high withdrawal rate. In the aftermath of the storm, nearly 5,000 students have been left homeless, and still more are reeling from lost wages and damaged per- sonal items. According to Chancellor Richard Eakin, the university understands that students must struggle with finding new accommodations and roommates and replacing lost belongs all while prepar- ing to return to class on Wednesday. He said he hopes the campus commu- nity can help devastated stu- dents begin the process with confidence that their needs will be met "My major concerns are relocating students who have been displaced by the flood Eakin said. "I speak for the entire ECU commu- nity when I say our hearts go out to them. We know they are very upset about their losses and tears will be shed. They are deserving of a time to grieve To ease the academic bur- den of the upheaval, the uni- versity has extended the pe- riod for withdrawals with 25 percent refunds until Oct. 5. The drop period has also been extended until Oct. 15 (Oct. 19 for Weekend Univer- sity) to allow students to drop classes without the drop counting against them. It is hoped that measures like these, coupled with the sim- plicity of the revised aca- demic calender, will encour contnuedon. 10 I INSIDE: 8 GtybnMs 10 i. fc-fc At v ' � � the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu Tuesday, September 28. 1999 The Salvation Army had 31 mobile kitchens active in 16 counties as of last Friday in North Carolina.

Aaron Child Student found drowned at bottom of Hill ECU Police pulled a student's body from the floodwaters at the bottom of Col- lege Hill last Wednes- day. Aaron Christo- pher Child, 18, was a freshman at ECU. An i autoposy performed by the state medical examiner's office ruled his death an accidental drown- ing. Child had been missing since ap- proximately 2 p.m. Thursday. He was last seen at the apart- ment of his brother, Adam, on 8th Street. According to his mother, Tina Child, he'd been taking a nap and his wallet and keys were left in the apartment. His mother put up posters around town, bought an ad in The Daily Reflector and got Aaron's pic- ture on local news- casts in an effort to find her son. His body was found around 9 a.m. Wednesday with the assistance of the State Bureau of In- vestigation and members of the Greenville FireRes- cue Unit. Child was a Leland, NC. fresh- man who had not declared a major. lUt-ii-i .Jl Ja.11 Tuesday, September 28, 1999 the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu A message from the Chancellor Dear Students: Welcome back to ECU after an unexpected, tragic interruption. The aftermath of Hurricane Floyd is a sobering wake-up call of the fragility of our daily lives. I am sure that you join the entire university family in expressing sympathy to the family of Aaron Child, a freshman from Leland, NC, who drowned in the floodwaters of the storm. Many of you lost a great deal in the flood. The ECU family is aware of your circumstances and committed to help you get your lives back to nor- mal. From the first hours following die devasta- tion we have made plans to assist you, and into the next weeks and months we will continue to be sensitive to your needs because of what this storm has imposed. The Flood Relief Resource Center in Sweetheart's Dining Room in Todd Dining Hall has been established as your one-stop center for ev- erything from assistance in housing, to counsel- ing services, academic concerns related to the storm, financial assistance, and business services. The hotline number at the center is 328-0394. Please use this center for your varied needs. The semester is not lost. We have had a tempo- rary setback We will all be required to make ad- justments. A few regular events such as fall break and the reading day before exams will have to be canceled. But, proudly, one of the reasons this se- mester will end on a positive note is the resilience of the ECU community. And among the great at- tributes of ECU students is unfailing spirit. There has never been a more compelling time than now to let your Pirate Pride show � in your sense of commitment to your best academic work, your sense of responsibility in doing whatever you can to help classmates who are in need, to be patient in trying circumstances in making the adjustments this storm has required of all of us, and to show your sense of humor when laughter can help heal a wound or bring a smile. We are all, each one of us, forever touched by this storm. But we know what it takes to overcome tragedy and become a success. We count on you to make it happen!

NEWS NOTES ?pU MAY HAVE MISSED Flooding leaves 5,000 students homeless (AP) About 5,000 of ECU's 18,000 students need to find a new place to live after flooding along the Tar River sub- merged sections of Greenville, including a cluster of student apart- ments. , "This is Third World stuff said ECU spokes- man John Purham. "It's sickening The university is looking for vacant apartments to house some displaced stu- dents. They also hope to find 500 to 1,000 resi- dents willing to let stu- dents move into their homes. j Hospital uses ingenuity to keep water flowing in wake of Floyd (AP) Eastern North Carolina's largest hospi- tal has tapped into Us rehabilitation swim- ming pool to keep toi- lets flushing and water flowing in the aftermath of Hurricane Floyd. Fire department wa- ter trucks are sucking water in the pool and circulating it through the plumbing system at Pitt County Memorial Hospital. "I think a flood is the worst disaster a hospital could sustain because it affects all areas of a hos- pital and all parts of the infrastructure the hospital's Dr. John Meredith said last Wednesday. The Hospital was dis- connected from the city's water system on Tuesday, after nearly a week of on and off ser- vice. Flooding has crippled the city's water treatment plant. Fire trucks and water tank- ers have been bringing water to the rehab pool and department pumper trucks then re- lay the greenish water into hospital pipes. Although the system has enabled the 731 -bed hospital to continue op- erating, the temporary solution has created its risks � Russell Gibbs, senior administrator of the hospital's operations department, estimates several.hundred thou- sand gallons of water since Tuesday morning have gone into the 80,000 gallon swim- ming pool - described as roughly half the size of an Olympic-size pool - and then into the hospital's water system. Anonymous donor gives $10,000 to help flood victims COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) A member of a Co- lumbia church has given the ECU football team $10,000 to help victims of Floyd.

Donaho, ' sbnior Minster at Eastminster Presbyte- flah'Church, presented tHe check last Wednes- day id ECU coach Steve Logan. 1 Donaho said the rrforiey was from a single donor, who was ciSrinected to the church but did not want to be identified. Logan said he would turn the money over to a ministry in Greenville, N.C to help students besides those on the football team. Hurricane will be short- term boost to NC economy (AP) A silver lining may be hard to see in the dark cloud hovering over flood-devastated eastern North Carolina, but there is one - a one- time financial boost for one of the state's poor- est regions, economic experts say. The preliminary numbers are staggering, ssses attributed to i may exceed Hur- tle Fran's $6 billion. ' Agricultural losses, starting with more than 1M 000 dead hogs and 1 million or more dead poultry, are expected to exceed $1 billion, more thlri from Fran in 1996. While the economic benefits of rebuilding after a hurricane may be short-lived, the per- ception of eastern North Carolina as a dangerous place to con- duct commerce may be difficult to shake, ac- cording to another ex- pert. "It's reducing the in- terest that the rest of the world has in the area said William Hall, an economist at the Uni- versity of North Caro- lina at Wilmington. In the short term, southeastern North Carolina probably won't see the increases in eco- nomic activity that fol- lowed recent hurri- canes, Hall said. All of the experts agreed the biggest los- ers from natural disas- ters such as hurricanes are the poor, who live in dilapidated houses or mobile homes. Many don't have flood insur- ance and will rely on the government for help. Thousands of vehicles left damaged (AP) Across the state's flooded coastal plain, thousands of cars, trucks and tractors lie submerged, in a foul stew of water, fertilizer, motor oil and other contaminants. As many as 40,000 to 50,000 vehicles have been damaged by Hur- ricane Floyd's floodwa- ters, many belonging to low-income residents without adequate insur- ance to replace them, AAA Carolinas motor club estimatedTUesday. Tom Crosby of AAA Carolinas warned con- sumers to be on the lookout for what he called "Carolina lem- ons" starting next month. That's his less- than-endearing term for flood-damaged cars that could start showing up starting next month. "In almost all cases, people are putting in in- surance claims he said. "If the car is to- taled, then the title is branded from then on so that anyone buying the vehicle knows it is potentially damaged However, if the ve- hicle is not considered a total loss, the owner might not disclose it had been flooded. "It's a gray area he said. "Some people say if they are not specifi- cally asked if the car was flooded, they are not obligated to disclose it There could be seri- ous damage to wire har- nesses, electrical com- ponents, CV joints and anti-lock brakes. He of- fered some solid advice to shoppers: "Before you buy any used car or a new one for sale even at a ridiculously low price, bring it to a trusted mechanic to check whether it has been flooded HHHHBIIHIIMHHBIHflBBBflHMHIMflHMHIflMMBflflMMBBflllMBMMl Tuesday. September 28, 1999 the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu NEWS NOTES YOU MAY HAVE MISSED 15 percent of farms could be casulties RALEIGH (AP) State Agriculture Com- missioner Jim Graham estimates up to 7,000 qf North Carolina's nearly 50,000 farms or about 15 percent could be put out of business by Hurricane Floyd's floodwaters. While state experts expect the agricultural damage total to exceed $1 billion, so far only 37 counties have submit- ted damage reports. The flooding spared much of the year's to- bacco crops, most al- ready harvested before the storm, but about half the state's expected 872,000-acre cotton crop is feared lost, said Graham. State analysts say peanut and sweet potato crops also suf- fered devastating hits. $100,000 gift given by UNC trustee CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) UNC-Chapel Hill officials needed a Stetson by the time they passed the hat for Hur- ricane Floyd relief past Texas oil tycoon Walter Davis. Trustee board mem- bers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill meeting Thursday decided to take up a collection to help flooding victims. A baseball cap had about $400 inside be- fore it got to Davis, who took out his wallet and wrote a check for $100,000. "Times are pretty tough said Davis, who directed the money be used to help displaced students at East Caro- lina University in Greenville. Nic Heinke, UNC- Chapel Hill's student body president, sug- gested taking up a col- lection. Davis' gift brought the donated to- tal to $100,407, a stag- gering amount that Heinke still had trouble putting into words hours later. "My mind was just a blank, just, wow Heinke said. "He .wanted to give money to the relief effort and wanted to know how it would be used, and this seemed appropriate. He's got a big heart Davis is a regular university benefactor. He gave $1 million to- ward construction of the Dean Smith Center and $1.4 million to a scholarship fund for students who agree to teach in poor counties in the northeastern part of the state. ECU Chancellor Ri- chard Eakin was shocked when he heard of Thursday's donation. The campus has been closed all week due to the flooding. "That is such a gen- erous act on Mr. Davis' part Eakin said. "The students, faculty and staff who are in such great need will be very grateful indeed �� Utilities employees work in flood for days n I! (AP) Waterlogged and weary utility work- ers are being called he- roes for their weeklong efforts to keep the power and water on during the worst flooding ever to hit the state. Since the hurricane and subsequent flood- ing by the Tar River, Greenville, a city'of 56,000, lost electricity for only 24 hours The substation that delivers Greenville Utili- ties' entire power supply went out Friday night. General Manager Malcolm A Green de- cided to use a circuit breaker outside the sta- tion, keeping the power on as long as the water stayed under the main cables, which carry 230,000 volts. A utility worker, sta- tioned in a boat pro- vided constant reports on the water level. Flood waters came within 2 inches Wednes- day but then went down, so the power re- mained on. The substa- tion is still under about 9 feet of water, and it is still working. . Utility employees also worked to protect equipment at the city's water and wastewater plants. . , Uutility workers, vol- unteers and jail inmates frantically stacked 25,000 sandbags to form a 6-foot waif around crucial equipment. The city never shut off its water system, al- though clogged filters led to low pressure that caused thousands to be without water. By Thursday, the system was close to normal af- ter the utility finished cleaning the pipes. How people die in hurricanes has changed WASHINGTON (AP) Before the era of mod- ern warnings and evacuations, the wind- driven waves known as storm surges were the greatest killers, killing thousands of people along coastlines. But that has changed in recent years, hurri- cane forecaster Ed Rappaport reports in a study prepared for pub- lication later this year. Floyd is the deadliest hurricane since Agnes, 27 years ago. And "it will again be freshwater flooding that was the cause of the majority of the deaths said Rappaport. Rappaport esti- mated that hurricanes have killed a total of about 25,000 people, mostly in storm surges. Of 415 drownings blamed on hurricanes since 1970, a total of 292, or 71 percent, oc- curred in inland fresh- water floods, he found. That's a far cry from decades earlier when powerful storms often caused hundreds of deaths with storm surges. While people uip in- creasingly aware of the stfn:i surge danger, they know less of the hazard of inland flood- ing, he said, often wait- ing too long to react and driving into danger.

September 28, 1999 More than $243 million in crop damage and $90 million in farm structural damage had been reported in 23 North Carolina coun- ties as of last Friday. Deserving students may get assistance from FEMA Washington - Indi- viduals, families, farm- ers and businesses may be eligible for federal as- sistance if they live or own a business in a county declared a major disaster area by Presi- dent Bill Clinton. This includes Pitt and most of 65 other counties in North Caro- lina. The flooding of Hur- ricane Floyd has caused many states to be de- clared federal disaster areas. For residents in those areas, one tele- phone call starts the process. To apply for disaster assistance, call a special toll free telephone num- ber. The number is 1- 800-462-9029. The number for speech and hearing impaired indi- viduals is: 1-800-462- 7585. Specially trained op- erators at one of FEMA's National Processing Service Centers process the applications and provide information re- garding programs avail- able and phone num- bers for local offices handling related disas- ter programs. The phone interview is the beginning of the application process. No decision is made about eligibility for one type of aid or other at this point Callers receive infor- mation and applica- tions - not goods or cash - based on these inter- views. However, the infor- mation provided by the applicant allows the various agencies to make the necessary de- cisions. The application pro- cess can be speeded up if the following informa- tion readily available: �Name � Current and pre-disas- ter address (if appropri- ate) � Proof of residency � Current telephone numbers TO APPLY FOR ASSIS- TANCE, CALL 1-800- 462-9029. SPEECH & HEARING IMPAIRED CALL 1-800-462-7585. HAVE THE FOLLOWING READILY AVAILABLE: CURRENT AND PRE- DBASTER ADDRESS (IF APPROPRIATE) PROOF OF RESDENCY AGE; POLICY NO. & � Insurance coverage; policy number(s) and agent's name Applicants are also urged to contact their insurance company and file necessary claims. NOTE: Government assistance does not cover damage or losses already covered by pri- vate insurance. Federal disaster aid does not guarantee total recovery from all disas- ter losses. Assistance is limited to assisting in returning damaged or lost prop- erty to its pre-disaster condition or to meeting necessary expenses and serious needs through the following programs. Here is some brief in- formation about federal disaster assistance: TEMPORARY HOUSING ASSISTANCE The Temporary Housing Assistance Pro- gram assures that people whose homes are damaged by disas- ters have a safe place to live until repairs can be completed. The type of assis- tance provided is deter- mined by FEMA, based on criteria which as- sures that the option chosen is appropriate to the individual's need arid can be delivered quickly. The basic forms of temporary housing are'rental assistance and essential home re- pair. This assistance is provide if the applicant's own insurance will not provide for temporary housing assistance. DISASTER LOANS The Small Business Administration (SBA) can make federally-sub- sidised loans to repair or replace homes, per- sonal property or busi- nesses which sustained damages not covered by insurance. For many persons this loan pro- gram is the primary form of disaster assis- tance they receive. INDIVIDUAL & FAMILY GRANTS This program, ad- ministered by the state but underwritten with 75 percent FEMA fund- ing, can provide grants to meet disaster-related serious needs and nec- essary expenses not provided for by other programs, insurance or other means. Based on guidelines provided by the Small Business Administra- tion, FEMA makes the determination as to whether the applicant needs to apply for a loan from SBA or if they are automatically referred to the grant program. Among needs that can be met with grant funds are housing re- pairs, home cleaning and sanitation, neces- sary household items, replacement of tools of the applicant's trade, clothing, transporta- tionand medical and dental expenses. Other possible assis- tance includes crisis counseling, disaster un- employment assistance, and IRS tax relief. For more informa- tion go to this website: http:www. fema.gov nwz99asst919.htm Faculty, staff given leave prpvisions FROM THE OFFICE OF STEWART MTXON, Due to the severity of the storm and the ex- tensive flooding that occurred, the University has been granted the use of emergency leave for this closure. Employees will NOT have to use personal leave or make up time for the time .period beginning at 2 PM Sept. 15, and runs through the end of work on Sunday, Sept 26. These provisions apply to all permanent em- ployees, temporary employees and student em ployees who reasonably could have reported to work but were unable to do so because the Uni- versity was dosed. Temporary and student em- ployees should be paid for the normal hours they would have worked had there been no emergency. t. If such employees were not scheduled to work during this closure, those employees should NOT be paid. Departments should charge leave to those employees who were away from the university on approved leave. Department representa- tives may use discretion when making this de- termination. The hurricane and the flooding could have altered employee plans. If an em- ployee changed his or her personal plans and was available to work during all or part of the closure, then the department may pay the em- ployee for that time without reducing the employee's leave balance. In general, any employee who is able to re- turn to work without endangering his or her personal safety should do so. Ifbona fide flood- ing or hazardous road conditions prevent em- ployees from returning to work on Monday, it may be possible to extend the emergency leave provisions only for such circumstances. We will consider each of these requests individually based on documented road conditions. Any employee who can report to work beginning Monday, Sept. 27,1999, but elects to attend to personal matters will need to charge the ab- sence to available leave or make up the absence during the coming work week. A number of SPA employees were deemed critical by departmental managers and super- visors and were asked to report to work while the university was closed. These critical em- ployees will, in addition to normal pay benefits, receive a special pay allocation that is reflective of the extraordinary individual efforts ex- pended. Representatives from the Department of Human Resources will be working with de- partmental representatives to process these re- quests as soon as possible. We will provide ad- ditional information to the department repre- sentatives and employees regarding the calcu- lation of the pay benefit at a later date. A number of EPA employees also were in- volved in the effort to make the university op- erational These employees are salaried, thus the special pay provisions do not apply to them However, we are looking at the possibility of ex- tending special leave provisions to these em- ployees to compensate them for the time they were required to work during this crisis. Ifyou have any questions regarding this mat- ter, please call 328-4009. ��� �� Tuesday, September 28, 1999 the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu IMPORTANT RECORDS LOST DUE TO FLOODING - A CHECKLIST FOR ECU STUDENTS - j Thousands of students were forced to abandon their apartments and homes due to the tragic and extensive flooding that affected all of East- ern North Carolina. In some cases, people lost many or all of their per- sonal belongings. While many students are understandably preoccupied looking for a place to live, there also are some issues to consider in re- gard to important records that may have been lost in the flood. Below are some suggestions that may be helpful. i CHANGE OF ADDRESS (1) Once your new address and phone number is established, com- municate that information to the registrar's office at ECU.

Is it the date that your apartment was flooded? Or, does it extend beyond that date? Check with the respective utility company and determine what you owe.f the amount does not appear reasonable, then communicate your concern to the utility company. ECU -RELATED RECORDS Some students may have lost their copy of records concerning their matriculation at ECU, such as receiving credit for a course, etc. Dupli- cates of these records should be in the registrar's system at ECU or in the folder kept with your faculty advisor. So, you should not need to worry about this. It would be difficult for the University to generate new copies of these items. Instead, when you meet with your advisor during pre- registration this fall just confirm that everything is in order according to your best recollection. Submitted by Douglas K. Schneider, Ph.D CPA, Associate Professor of Accounting Funds being sought to provide financial aid Those who need emergency funding in the wake of Hurricane Floyd may find some re- lief from the Office of Student Financial Aid and special university- provided loans, and grants. An anonymous do- nor has given $10,000 which is being distrib- uted in $100 increments to students who have lost their homes. This $100 grant does not have to be paid back and students can take advantage of it by visit- ing the Flood Relief Re- source Center. � However, according to to Dan Bishop, uni- versity comptroller, there might be address checks to ensure that the money is being given out to students who are truly in need. The university will be working closely with students affected by the flood in order to find additional sources of fi- nancial assistance, ac- cording to Rosemary Stelma, director of Stu- dent Financial Aid. Students who have already received finan- cial aid this semester and those who don't may apply for federal and university grant and loan monies. "We are trying to identify any funds that the university may have that can be converted into short-term loans Stelma said. "What we're looking for is long-term, increased, loan eligibil- ity. We're also looking at short-term, emergency loans that would have to be paid back maybe at the end of the semester, maybe into the next se- mester Applications for fed- eral financial aid can be filed electronically in the financial aid office. Students will have an answer about their eligi- bility in about 72 hours. But the money can take up to six weeks to arrive. For this reason, the university is accepting donations and organi- zations such as the Stu- dent Government Asso- ciation are working to make quick emergency funds available. The SGA executive council approved $20,000 to fund student loans which will be al- lotted in increments of $50-$200 depending on need. This will be a six- month loan to be repaid by March 31,1999. The loans will carry sur- charges from $2-$5. "We are doing this to help students in the short term said Cliff Webster, SGA president. "Hopefully it will be available to help stu- dents get back on their feet" Students in need help must first contact the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and complete an application. "There will be a pro- cess for applying for those funds just like ap- plying for FEMA funds, said Dorothy Mueller, dean of Undergraduate Studies. "They should first call the-FEMA num- ber and go through the FEMA process of getting money that way. These are things that can get you going until financial aid money comes in Students who have lost wages or whose par- ents have been affected may be eligible for addi- tional special grants. "We're looking at stu- dents who are going to be negatively impacted with their income, or their parents income Stelma saidThis helps with parents who have lost businesses or whose farms will no longer be as valuable because of the polluted water that's on them or, if there's a loss of em- continued on page 10 ,JvaVaw-1�iiiAl�Saia8fc�fe the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu Tuesday, September 28. 1999 Dozens of r corporations have donated to the relief effort, includ- ing Lowe's, R.J.

Student Stores, UBE replace lost bobks Hurricane Floyd has left university officials struggling to ensure not only the continuance of classes, but also many students' enrollment at ECU. Because numerous students have been doubly bit by the storm, losing both home and school supplies such as textbooks and book bags.UBE and the ECU Student Stores are partnering to supply students with loaner books until the end of the semester. University officials hope gestures like this one will make it easier for students to re- coup and complete this semester. "We're asking stu- dents to come to the Flood Relief Resource Center, and we will re- serve the books for them said Wanda Scarborough, director of ECU Student Stores. Students who have lost their books should visit the Student Stores table at the Flood Relief Resource Center in Todd Dining Hall. Each per- son applying for loaner books must fill out an application noting which location (UBE or Student Stores) they purchased their books. A representative from the Student Stores will then pull up their schedule for verifica- tion, order the books through that organiza- tion and call the student when their materials have arrived. The books must be returned at the end of the semester or records will be tagged. According to Scarborough, there are a small t . number of supplemental school supplies such as book bags, notebooks and pencils available to flood victims for free. Also, the Student Stores is in the process of con- tacting vendors for spe- cialty supplies, such as art tools, to solicit dona- tions of those items. "We're trying to get any vendors to come through with some art supplies that they can help us out with, we have several vendors who have called and of- fered to help us out with various things Scarborough said. "We will have, and UBE will have, whatever the ven- dors send in, including free T-shirts for those who have lost all their clothing The stump of a tree across the street from the Chancellor's house on 6th Street stands as a grim reminder of the devistation of Hurrican Floyd J( REVISED FALL SEMESTER 1999 CALENDAR ; i Changes show in boldface type (Aottial class days: 13 Mondays. 14 Tuesdays. 18 Wadnasdays, 14 Thursdays, 13 Fridays, and 13 Saturdays.

As we prepare to open classes on Wednesday, I want to assure each of you that you, as students, have been whole-heart ily thought of throughout the entire hurricane during the past two weeks. :iuli I have never seen an administration, such as ours, that have thought and continue to think about our students first and foremost. Your safety, health, and academic careers have been the focal point of most of the conversations that our admin- istration has had over the past two weeks; with all student interests being the top priority. The next few days, weeks and months are go- ing to be tough, but as an ECU student, you must remember why you are here, and that is your edu- cation. If nothing else, this tragic incident will make you a stronger person; it has already im- pacted my personal life in ways that i would have never thought. When I took the office to represent each of you, I took it whole-heartily. When some- thing like this happens, I take it personally. I have thought of nothing but you, the students, over the past two weeks. As the flood waters begin to ebb and the roads to the emerald city become passable once again, thousands of stu- dents are returning to campus. ' However, foras many jas 5,000 students there, is one essential prob- lem�they have no home left to which to return. Several large, stti- dent-populated apart- ment complexes, in- cludingTar River Estates and Wyndham Circle, were devastated when the swollen Tar River poured over its banks and rose to a record 29.72-foot crest. Thursday afternoon saw students navigating the waterways�for- merly streets and park- ing lots� in canoes, desperately attempting to salvage what they could before the flood overtook their homes. Students in campus residence halls were evacuated the Saturday after the storm. Those ' Swho had no way out of town slept in the hail- , ways of Jones Hall, the only dorm with electric- ity. Loss of water service midweek forced officials to find alternative hous- ing for those left on , campus including sendingsome of the stu- dents by bus to stay at NC State. ' t i According to univer- '� shy officials, there are currently resources available to help stu- dents who lost their homes in the flood. Manny Amaro, direc- tor of University Hous- ing, said his department is taking on a dual role in the aftermath of the hurricane by offering assistance not only to students who are housed on campus, but to those off-campus stu- dents who were dis- placed by Floyd. To combat the huge loss of student resi- dences, the housing staff is partnering with families in the commu- nity to provide both short-term (until the student finds other ac- commodations) and long-term (the remain- der of the semester) housing options in he homesof volunteers. A list of families who have volunteered to of- fer this service is avail- able at the Flood Relief Resource Center inTodd Dining Hall. The list gives details about how to contact the family and the terms of their offer. The university is working with FEMA to have trailers placed on a university-owned plot of land off of Dickinson Avenue. If the deal is completed, this could mean some students will be able to get vouchers to obtain free housing since it is based on income and need. Students wishing to find an apartment may consult the list in the back of this issue, or pick up a copy at the Flood Relief Resource Center. I'd like to take this opportunity to say that if at any time, throughout this ordeal and this semes- ter, you have any concerns or need any help with anything, please feel free to contact my office. The SGA Executive Council, including myself, is here to help you. We are YOUR representation for our campus. Again, it is great to see so many familiar faces back on campus.

September 28. 1999 I North Carolina Department of Transportation officials said last week that an estimated total of 1,000 roads were closed due to the flooding from Hurricane Floyd. City limits access to flooded homes No person will be al- lowed access to areas which have been flooded until the City of Greenville has in- spected structures within the area to deter- mine whether they may be safely entered, ac- cording to a news re- lease issued by the city on Friday. Restricted areas are indicated by barricades, crime scene tapes, posted notices, or an or- der of a law enforce- ment officer. The city has orga- nized 10 inspection teams to conduct these inspections. Each inspection team will consist of 3 members of the Inspec- tions Division, the Po- lice Department, and the Fire Department The teams will start the inspections in areas where the flood waters have receded suffi- ciently to allow the in- spections to be con- ducted safely. Addi- tional areas will be in- spected as they become accessible. These inspections started last Saturday, and it is hoped that they will be completed within 10 days. Owners and occu- pants of structures within areas which have been flooded may assist the inspections by pro vidinga key to the struc- tures for use by the teams. Keys may be deliv- ered to the Office of the City Clerk located at City Hall during normal business hours. If a key is not available, then entry will be gained by an alternative method. Upon completion of the inspections within an area and a determi- nation that the area may be entered safety by the public, access to the ar- eas will be allowed. Any structure deter- mined to be unsafe after inspection will be af- fixed with a notice of the dangerous character of the structure in a con- spicuous place on the exterior wall of the structure. Prior to commenc- ing any repair to a struc- ture, the Inspections Di- vision should be con- tacted in order to secure any necessary permits. Questions can be di- rected to the city offi- cials at 329-4161. FLOOD SAFETY INFORMATION Here are some flood safety precautions from The American Red Cross: DO HOT Ml THROUGH FLOWWG WATHL Drowning is the number one cause of flood deaths, mostly during flash floods. Currents can be deceptive; six inches of moving water can knock you off your feet. Use a pole or stick to ensure that the ground is still there before you go through an area where the water is not flowing. DO NOT MUVE THROUGH A FLOODED AREA. More people drown in their cars than anywhere else. Don't drive around road barriers; the road or bridge may be washed out STAY AWAY FROM POWER UNES AND ELECTRICAL WIRES. The number two flood killer after drowning is electrocution. Electri- cal current can travel through water. Report downed power lines to your utility company or emergency management office. TURN OFF YOUR ELECTRICITY WHEN YOU RETURN HOME. Follow the instructions in Step 2. Some appliances, such as television sets, keep electrical charges even after they have been unplugged. Don't use appliances or motors that have gotten wet unless they have been itaken apart, cleaned, and dried. WATCH FOR ANHAALS, ESPECI ALLY MAKES. Small animals that have been flooded out of their homes may seek shelter in yours. Use a pole or stick to poke and turn items over and scare away small animals. LOOK BEFORE YOU STEP. After a flood, the ground and floors are covered with debris including broken bottles and nails. Floors and stairs that have been covered with mud can be very slippery. BE ALERT FOR GAS LEAKS. Use a flashlight to inspect for damage. Don't smoke or use candles, lanterns, or open flames unless you know the gas has been turned off and the area has been aired out CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT GOT WET. Flood waters have picked up sewage and chemicals from roads, farms, factories, and storage buildings. Spoiled food and flooded cosmetics and medicines are health hazards. When in doubt, throw the TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF. Recovering from a flpod is a big job. It is tough on both the body and the spirit. And the effects a disaster has on you and your family may last a long time. ECU provides assistance in keeping students in school continued from page 1 age students to perse- vere until the end of the semester. However, officials urge students to speak with both their profes- sors and advisors before deciding to drop classes or withdraw from school. "We are advising stu- dents to meet with their faculty and just gener- ally assess how we're go- ing to finish the semes- ter in each respective course said Gene Owens, assistant dean of Undergraduate Stud- ies. "The faculty will be encouraged to be as un- derstanding as they can while maintaining aca- demic integrity. We want to involve the fac- ulty, we want students involved with their aca- demic advisors. "We have extended the drop period for two weeks, we want them to have that time to totally assess what's going on and where they stand in the whole picture of things. We want stu- dents to have the oppor- tunity to complete at the least, part of the semes- ter successfully Students who would like to drop classes or withdraw from school can do so by visiting the registrar's office in Whichard from 9 a.m5 p.m. or by going to the Flood Relief Resource Center at Sweetheart's in Todd Dining Hall from 10:30 a.m7 p.m. "We are making ev- ery resource available so they can relocate and have assistance so they know the university is continuing to care for their needs Eakin said.

Some of those students will be able to do what is called a 'professional judgment' and increase their grant eligibility Stelma and Mueller said they want students to know that university officials are trying to be as supportive and understanding as pos- sible. According to Stelma, part of that encour- agement means recognizing in advance how difficult it might be for some students to main- tain high grades in the coming months. "We are going to do every single thing we can within the letter of the law to be as flexible and reasonable in the interpretation of aca- demic records in terms of retaining financial aid for the 2000-2001 semester�in terms of money, in terms of where kids are with their financial aid situations and how their aca- demic situations impact their financial aid eli- gibility Stelma said.

"We urge residents returning to their homes to be particu- larly careful said FEMA Director James Lee Witt. "While it's good to be home and to be able to begin clean- up, it's vital to know what risks are posed in a flood-damaged home Homeowners should assume that anything touched by floodwater is contami- nated. Mud left by floodwa- ter can contain chemi- cals from sources as varied as your garden chemicals to a neighbor's propane tank to the oven cleaner you stored in the kitchen. n addition, homes with flood damage may have damp areas where molds, mildews and other fungal organisms thrive. And there are dangers of electrical shock and a possibility ofinjuringyourselfwith hidden sharp objects. There is always a danger of structural in- stability, too, after a flood. Before going in, carefully check to make pany from a neighbor's house. Enter the home care- fully. If the door sticks at the top, it could mean your ceiling is ready to fall. If you force the door open, wait outside the doorway in case debris falls. Check the ceiling for signs of sagging. Wind, rain, or deep flooding may wet plas- ter or wallboard.

Let them know they can have own feelings, which might be different than others. It's OK. 2. Let the children take their time to figure things out and to have their feelings. Don't rush them or pretend that they don't think or feel as they do. 3. Help them learn to use words that express their feelings, such as happy, sad, angry, mad and scared. Just be sure the words fit their feel- ings - not yours. 4. Stay together as a family as much as pos- sible. 5. Go back to former routines or develop new ones. Maintain a regular schedule for the chil- dren. 6. Reassure the chil- dren that the disaster was not their fault in any way. 7. Let them have some control, such as choosing what outfit to wear or what meal to have for dinner. 8. Help your children know that others love them and care about them by visiting, talking on the phone or writing to family members, friends and neighbors. 10. Encourage the children to give or send pictures they have drawn or things they have written. 11. Help your chil- dren regain faith in the future by helping them develop plans for activi- ties that will take place later? mi ' � � �HHHHHMiM immum HM 12 the east Carolinian www.tec.ecu.edu Tuesday.

The booster is being recom- mended for those per- sons that have not been vaccinated in the past 5-10 years, have an open or healing wound, and have been exposed to flood waters. If you have been inside or have not come in con- tact with floodwater, you do not need this vaccine. Tetanus shots are available at the Student Health Center FREE. Hepatitis A is a viral infection that affects the liver causing flu like symptoms including nausea and vomiting; fever, body aches, and sometimes a yellowing of the skin called jaun- dice. Hepatitis A is transmitted through eating ordrinking water or food contaminated by human waste. The symptoms of Hepatitis A occur between 15 and 45 days after ingesting contaminated food or water. The infection usually goes away with- out major medical in- tervention and does not cause any long term problems. At present there is no indication for wide- spread immunization against Hepatitis A. If cases of Hepatitis A de- velop, an immunization campaign will be insti- tuted. If you feel you have an unusually high-risk exposure to contami- nated food, water, or human waste or have any of the signs or symptoms listed above, go to the Student Health Center for evaluation. Hepatitis B is also a viral infection that af- fects the liver causing similar symptoms to Hepatitis A. Hepatitis B is transmitted by body fluids. There is minimal risk of contracting Hepatitis B from expo- sure to flood waters. At this time there is no in- dication for widespread immunization against Hepatitis B. � � GASTROINTESTINAL ILLNESSES Diarrhea is occa- sionally encountered after a flood. Eating spoiled or poorly refrig- erated foods as well as drinking bacteria con- taminated water may cause diarrhea. Dehy- dration from loss of body fluids can be a se- rious complication of diarrhea. Most simple diarrhea will resolve without treatment Self- treatment of simple di- arrhea lasting 3 days or less consists of drinking dear liquids for 24 hours followed by a bland diet and Imodium AD taken as directed on the pack- age. Diet and self-care instructions may be ob- tained from the Student Health Center. If the diarrhea is bloody, lasts more than 3 days, is associated with nausea and vomit- ing, or fever, come to the Student Health Center or see youT private medical provider for evaluation. Nausea and vomit- ing, like diarrhea, may be caused by ingesting contaminated or spoiled food. Nausea and vomiting may sometimes be con- trolled by taking over the counter anti-nausea medicines such as Dramamine. Ice chips and clear liquids may also be helpful. If you have uncontrolled nau- sea or vomiting come to the Student Health Cen- ter or see your private health care provider for evaluation. SKIN INFECTIONS All skin wounds ex- posed to flood waters are prone to infection. Signs of infection are: 1) Pink or red color around the wound 2 Warmth of the skin at the site of the wound 3) Yellow drainage from the wound 4) Odor coming from the wound If you have any of the above signs of wound infection, come to the Student Health Center or see your private health care pro- vider for evaluation. As the floodwater re- cedes, mud will be left in its place. While the mud may seem fun to play around in, it harbors glass, metal and other sham objects; snakes, flies and mosquitoes; a wide variety of rash causing bacteria, and possibly hazardous chemicals (pesticides, gas, and oil). These rashes may be painful, itch, ooze and leave un- attractive scaring. Obvi- ously, it is best to stay out of the mud; but if you must be exposed, wear protective gear and wash with an anti- bacterial soap as soon as possible. If you develop a rash, come to the Stu- dent Health Center or see your private health care provider for evalu- ation. INFECTIOUS DISEASES ARE RARE FOLLOWING FLOODS! The Student Health Center will be open 8 5 p.m. beginning Monday, Sept. 27,1999. 2) Bathing 3)Washing clothes - keep to a minimum to avoid adding more wa- ter to the system To make water safe for all uses: 1) Use bottled water 2) Boil water 3-5 minutes 3) Add 1 tablespoon of household bleach to 5 gallons of water (16 of the water as well as underwater. These snakes have been flooded out of their habitat and are fright- ened and aggressive. Snakebites can become a far too common prob- lem after a flood. It is best not to walk through standing water or mud but if you must use a long stick to push in drops or 12 capful per ' front of you to clear the 1 gallon) and allow the way. Also use a stick to water to sit 30 minutes before using. � � INSECT PRECAUTIONS Mosquitoes are com- mon pests after floods. While contracting dis- ease from mosquito bites is unlikely, infec- tions can occur from scratching these itching bites. It is important to protect yourself from these biting pests by wearing a repellant (20 DEET for adults and 10 DEET for small children) throughout the day. Mosquitoes are more prone to bite at dusk and after dark, so it is very important to protect yourself during these hours. Also, wear- ing long sleeve shirts and pants may be help- ful. Keep screens on open windows and doors. WATER SAFETY Until further notice, city water is considered contaminated and should not be used for the following: 1) Drinking 2) Cooking 3) Brushing teeth 4) Washing infants or small children Water can be used for the following: 1) Washing dishes as long as the dishes are al- lowed to dry before us- ing � turn over objects and push debris out of the way. If you receive snake- bite, do: 1) Have someone take you to the local hospital or call 911 2) Take the snake with you if possible 3) Remain calm 4) Keep the bitten arealimb still 5) If you are more than 30 minutes away from a hospital a loose constricting band (ap- ply above the bite) may be applied to slow the flow of venom but not cut off circulation If you receive snake- bite, do not: 1) Make cuts and at- tempt to suck out the venom 2) Apply ice or heat 3) Apply a tourniquet 4) Elevate the bitten limb 5) Try to kill the snake yourself. � There are three very poisonous snakes found in Eastern North Caro- lina, Rattlesnakes, Cop- perheads, and Water Moccasins. Rattle- snakes and Copper- heads bite while swim- ming on top of the wa- ter but Moccasins are able to bite while on top SAFETY 1) Be cautious around downed wires 2) Avoid riding jet skis and boats 3) Avoid standing water and mud 4) Avoid drinking Alco- hol that might alter you judgement 5) Volunteershare 6) Stay out of cleanup areas unless you are North Carolina state officials estimated last Friday that more than 30,000 homes were flooded in the aftermath of Hurricane Floyd � at least 1.600 of them beyond repair.
