I love UNC. I love the quad in the spring and the arboretum in the fall. I love the Pit on
a sunny day and Graham Memorial Lounge on a rainy one. I love Roy all the time.
But what makes UNC truly special is not our beautiful campus, our distinguished reputation
or even our basketball team. Its us the student body who make UNC what it is.

he campus heard. And the campus came. The
University community students, faculty, staff,
administrators, town residents, those who knew
her best, those who never met her turned out
by the thousands to remember Student Body President Eve
Carson.
Those same people are still reeling, trying to make sense
of the senseless violence that took one of their own even as
police try to uncover the details of what exactly happened
since Eves roommates left her studying at home Tuesday
night.
Whatever those answers ultimately are, one thing is cer-
tain: Eve Carson loved this University and its students.
And they loved her.

RALEIGH We like Mike, we like Mike were the words that greeted Governor-elect Mike Easley when he pressed his way through a rowdy crowd of about 250 supporters to give his vic- tory speech at the North Raleigh Hilton on Tuesday night. With 93 percent of precincts report- ing, Easley snagged 52 percent of the vote, Republican candidate Richard Vinroot received 46 percent and Libertarian candidate Barbara Howe
had 2 percent. When the cheers died down, Easley, standing next to his wife and son, announced his victory in the 2000 gubernatorial election, making Easley North Carolinas first elected governor of the 21st century. I have so many people to thank, but I want to start with my wife, he said. We started this thing together so working families would have a voice tonight they will. He assured his supporters that he would fulfill his platformpromises, such as improving public education and pro-

RALEIGH Incumbent Rep. David Price, D-N.C., defeated black Republican candidate Jess Ward and Libertarian C. Brian Towey on Tuesday to keep his seat representing the 4th Congressional Di s t r i ct i n t he U. S. Hous e of Representatives.
With 94 percent of the precincts reporting, Price was leading with 61 per- cent of the vote, compared to 37 percent for Ward and 2 percent for Towey. Celebrating at the North Raleigh Hilton with other Democratic candi- dates, including newly elected governor Mike Easley, Price spoke to an exuberant crowd of supporters. We want to say a party thank-you to all of you, Price said after winning his eighth congressional
term, his third in a row. Weve got a positive message right now. Price said he will continue fighting for education and a balanced budget in Washington. I hope to go to Washington and make progress on the concerns of our nation: strengthen public schools, pro- mote home ownership, balance the bud- get and bring down the national debt, he said. Its a very powerful agenda.
Prices primary opponent, Ward, a one-term Cary councilman, spoke to a much smaller and less excited group at the Sheraton Capital Center Hotel in Raleigh, thanking those who supported his campaign. Its an honor to serve the Republican party, he said. I thank the people who have been with me through- out. Its been a tremendous joy. I wont
