Congress members said the resolution also might include a admonition of TPAC Chairman Bob Knight, who admitted misrepresentation in his statement to the committee last week.
At last week's TPAC meeting, Knight announced five budgetary directives that he said came from Chancellor James Moeser. He later admitted that the directives did not come from Moeser but were his own. Knight said he hoped the guidelines would pressure TPAC into agreeing on a budget for the Department of Public Safety, which is facing a $2 million budget deficit for the 2002-03 fiscal year.
Student Body President Justin Young, who also is a TPAC member, said at Tuesday's Congress meeting that TPAC members do not trust Knight.
He also said last week's events are proof that the person who fills the role of chairman for TPAC should not come from University administration.
"I think (TPAC members) felt forced to make a decision on something inappropriate," he said. "There's too much meddling from South Building."
Decisions made by TPAC have to be approved by Moeser and by the UNC Board of Trustees before they are enacted.
Young encouraged members of Congress to draft a resolution supporting the reorganization of TPAC, possibly including equal representation for students, faculty and staff and an overall downsizing of the committee.
These points were suggested at a Monday meeting between student leaders and Nancy Suttenfield, vice chancellor for finance and administration.
Young said student government leaders would applaud any action taken by Congress.
