The Board of Governors wants legislators to repeal an out-of-state increase
By Madeline Will
State & National Editor
CARY During the summer, the N.C.
General Assembly handed down a steep
tuition increase for out-of-state students.
And come May, UNC-system officials
will return to the legislature to ask for that
increase to be taken back.
The system Board of Governors met Friday to
set next years tuition and fee increases. In-state
undergraduates wont see a tuition increase.
The board voted to ask the legislature to
repeal an out-of-state tuition increase for under-
graduates that was mandated in the summer
ranging from 12.3 percent at some campuses,
including UNC, to 6 percent or zero at others.
UNCs increase amounts to $3,469. UNC
officials had asked for a 2.5 percent or
$700 increase instead. Administrators
say the hefty legislative increase will hurt the
Universitys ability to attract talented out-of-
state students and offer need-based aid.
I think theres a lot of concern that UNC-
Chapel Hills jump that its going to be
difficult, and its a significant increase for out-
of-state students, said Hannah Gage, former
board chairwoman. I think the budget were
sending to the legislature reflects our feeling
that the increase should not be that high.
An appeal to the legislature
Despite the boards vote, there is no guarantee
that legislators will repeal the tuition increase
that they enacted. Few members are optimistic.
Still, several board members said regardless of
the final decision, its important to tell legislators
they should stick to precedent in the future and
let the Board of Governors set tuition increases.
Hopefully they will consider it in a thought-
ful way and at least understand why we dont
think its a good idea for the General Assembly
to be stepping in and taking over some of the
responsibilities of the board, Gage said.

attorney for fraud
investigation
By Andy Willard
Assistant University Editor
The new administration is treading
territory very familiar to its predeces-
sors.
UNC Chancellor Carol Folt
announced Friday that the University
has retained an outside attorney who
will conduct another investigation into
academic misconduct in the former
Department of African and Afro-
American Studies.
After the scandals came to light,
it was renamed the Department
of African, African American and
Diaspora Studies.
According to a press release from
Folt and UNC-system President Tom
Ross, the latest probe was jointly initi-
ated in response to information shared
with the University by Orange County
District Attorney Jim Woodall.
UNC spokeswoman Karen Moon
said the administration is not ready to
give details as to how the investigation
will be conducted.
Woodall has been using the findings
of the State Bureau of Investigation

Powell petitions town
on occupancy rule
By Bailey Mathias
Staff Writer
Student Body President-elect Andrew
Powell didnt waste any time trying to
make good on his campaign promise to
simplify students off-campus housing
experiences.
Part of Powells platform was to work
with the town of Chapel Hill to overturn
its four-person occupancy rule, which
says a single-family home can have no
more than four unrelated residents.
Following his election last week,
Powell created a petition for students
to show their discontent with the rule.
We hope that a combination of
Chancellor Carol Folt and
system President Tom Ross
made the joint decision.
The student body president-
elect wants to overturn the
controversial housing law.
Police talk storming response
DTH FILE/JUSTIN PRYOR
Fans lit bonfires and celebrated on Franklin Street on Thursday night after the Duke game.
By Dree Deacon
Staff Writer
Chapel Hill Police Sgt. Bryan
Walker was on Franklin Street
Thursday night, but he wasnt
celebrating. He was keeping an
eye on you.
And at 8 a.m. Friday morning,
while most people were in bed
recovering from the UNC mens
basketball victory over Duke
University, Walker and about 10
other officers from the Chapel
Hill Police Department gathered
with interested Chapel Hill resi-
dents to chat over a cup of coffee.
The event, held at Market
Street Coffeehouse on South
Elliott Road, was the first Coffee
with a Cop event in Chapel Hill
and is part of a national move-
ment to break down barriers
between citizens and police.
Many of the officers at Fridays
event had been working until 2
a.m. the previous night to keep
the town safe during post-game
festivities.
While there were as many as
five fan-fueled bonfires started on
Franklin Street after the big win,
no related arrests were made.
Walker, a professional stan-
dards and information sergeant
with the Chapel Hill Police
Department, said he enjoys
working large celebrations like
the storming of Franklin Street
because the crowds of Chapel Hill
are generally happy. He said large
crowds are typically rowdy.
That means less problems for
us, Walker said.
Walker has been on Franklin
Street for Chapel Hills Halloween
celebration every year for the past
20 years, which drew a crowd of
80,000 people at a peak in 2007
. He said it is one of his favorite
events to patrol, and his favorite
costumes are from attendees
dressed as characters from the
police-themed comedy show
Reno 911!
Sgt. Gabriel Shinn, a patrol
sergeant with the department for
16 years who attended the event,
sat down, coffee in hand, and
talked about his experiences as an
officer.
His experiences include every-
thing from issuing traffic tickets
to patrolling celebrations on
Franklin Street like the one on
Thursday night, which attracted
about 10,000 people at the peak
of the storming.
Though it was a late night
coupled with an early morn-
ing, Shinn said the officers were
happy to be at the event and
answer any questions residents
had for them.
I think it humanizes police
officers, Shinn said.
Sarah Owens, owner of Market
Street Coffeehouse, said the shop
decided to host Coffee with a Cop
because she hopes it will reinforce
ties between the public and law
enforcement.
Its a nice community event
and we really enjoy being a part of
this community, Owens said. It
just seemed like a natural exten-
sion of what our vision is for the
community.

were not informed of the rule prior to
renting homes.

f theres something that scares you in life, sometimes the best
thing to do is conquer it head-on. When a Florida mans fear of
spiders became too great, he thought the only next natural step
was to get a giant tattoo of a black widow on his face.
Eric Ortiz really, really hates spiders, and now that he has a tattoo of
one that takes up most of his cheek, other arachnophobes will probably
quasi-hate his face. Its a lose-lose, but for him, the decision was logical.
Everybody fears spiders, Ortiz said. Thats why I got it. Just to,

what Im saying? It seems his girlfriend didnt get what he was saying.
According to his Facebook profile, he is now listed as single.

Credit transfer to be simplied
By Madeline Will
State & National Editor
CARY For many students who
have transferred from a community
college to a UNC-system school,
the transition was complicated by a
tangle of red tape.
But now, a new agreement should
make it easier for community college
students to transfer course credits to
a North Carolina public university.
On Friday, the leaders of the UNC
system and the N.C. Community
College system joined together
to sign the new Comprehensive
Articulation Agreement. It had
taken two years to update the origi-
nal 1997 joint agreement.
The revised rules, which will go
into effect for new college transfer
students in the fall, are meant to
give students a more direct and clear
path to a four-year institution. The
agreement establishes foundational
courses that will transfer to any
system school to meet general edu-
cation requirements and requires
coursework to help students map
their academic progression.
It also guarantees that community
college students who transfer will be
juniors with full credit if they have
completed an associate degree.
Its certainly going to save time,
but its also going to save money
because students have to pay tuition
if they have to repeat a course, said
N.C. Community College System
President Scott Ralls. It ll also save
money for taxpayers because our
courses are supported (by taxpayer
money) in both community colleges
and the university (system).
He said this agreement will also
help the thousands of students who
take some college courses while still
in high school.
UNC-system President Tom Ross
said the more streamlined process
will help transfer students be suc-
cessful at system schools.
About 24,000 students who start-
ed at a community college in the state
are now undergraduates in the UNC
system accounting for 54 percent
of all transfer students in the system.
Latisha Edwards, 31, is one of
those students. She transferred from
Fayetteville Technical Community
College to Fayetteville State
University and is set to graduate in
May as a chemistry major.
She is considering going to phar-
macy school, and UNC-CH is one of
her top choices.
She credited the transfer pipeline
for preparing her academically. After
graduating high school, Edwards took
some time off before going to college.
I didnt take the traditional
route, she said. I didnt see myself
going to pharmacy school or even
being able to compete to get into
Carolina, and now I feel prepared.
Gov. Pat McCrory applauded the
agreement in a statement.
I came to office promising that
we were going to break down the
silos in education, and this clear and
concise plan is a powerful example
of this, he said. When we focus on
the interest of students, amazing
things can happen.

REVOLUTIONARY REVIVAL
Hillsborough oers re-enactment of the War of Independence
ASG preps
for new
leaders
By Graves Ganzert
Senior Writer
As the smoke cleared at
Hillsboroughs Revolutionary War
Living History Day, the red coats
were not greeted by hordes of angry
patriots, but visitors looking to peer
into life during the war.
The town of Hillsborough
offered the public an opportunity
to experience firsthand the history
within the town Saturday.
The event offered war-themed
guided walking tours, craft
activities and re-enacted military
practices. The entire event com-
memorated British General Lord
Charles Cornwallis occupation of
Hillsborough with his 1,900-man
army on Feb. 20, 1781.
Bill Nichols, a Hillsborough resi-
dent, said events like this offer an
exciting way to understand the his-
tory of America.
I was simply out for a walk
when I saw the demonstrations, he
said. It is always fun to learn from
things like this.
Nichols said the re-enactment is
a unique way to engage a commu-
nity with the towns history.
I think people should be aware of
the history here, he said.
Its a delight and interesting to
understand what the British were
doing in the Revolutionary War at
this point.
Karen Snyder, a resident of
Efland, said she has been doing
18th century style re-enacting for
more than 30 years.
Snyder and her husband were
both dressed in authentic style
clothing while demonstrating com-
mon practices of people during the
era.
It is important especially for chil-
dren to understand where everyone
came from, she said.
We didnt just appear on Earth.
We all have stories.
Lynn Bull, a resident of
Goldsboro, has been re-enacting
since 1969 and said it has become a
growing trend of historical learning.
We try to use the tools of the
time and we carry out the same
thing with the uniforms, the drill
and the equipment, he said. We
try to be as accurate as possible.
Bull said his passion is to share
significant historical experiences
with people. Through such events
he said he is able to relive critical
moments in history.
It might just be a moment in
time when you wake up to a camp-
fire and for a few seconds it feels
like you are almost there, he said.
Brandie Fields, executive direc-
tor of Orange County Historical
Museum, said the re-enactment
offers a way to learn local history
that makes people feel they are
going back in time.
It is a great way to interact with
people and ask questions to the
closest thing to the actual historical
people, she said.
Fields said the towns historic
background is worth showcasing to
the community.
Hillsborough seems to have
always been historical in every era
of U.S. history, she said.
You can tell it is historic by
walking down the street but you
need to hear about it or experience
it first hand to appreciate it.

RALEIGH With only
two meetings left, the UNC-
system Association of Student
Governments is setting up for its
next administration.
The association met this
weekend at N.C. State University
and passed a reform bill and four
resolutions. Members nominated
a single ticket for president and
vice president.
ASG, funded by an annual $1
student fee, is composed of stu-
dent delegates from all 17 UNC-
system schools.
Among the resolutions passed
were: a resolu-
tion to add
A-plus to the
systemwide
grading scale,
a list of the
ASGs legisla-
tive priorities,
a resolution to
raise awareness
of the use of
Congolese con-
flict minerals
in technology
and a resolu-
tion on renew-
able energy.
New leadership
Alex Parker, student
body president of N.C. State
University, and Leigh Whittaker,
student body president of UNC-
Asheville, who have been friends
since high school, are running
uncontested next month for
president and senior vice presi-
dent of the association.
ASG President Robert Nunnery
and Senior Vice President Olivia
Sedwick had won last years elec-
tion as write-in candidates, but
Nunnery said he doesnt foresee
Parker and Whittaker losing.
Parker said he and Whittaker
have already begun discussing
plans for the organization if they
win, which will be made public
next month during the campaign.
The election will be held dur-
ing the ASGs March meeting.
Bills and resolutions passed
The highly contested A-plus
resolution squeaked through the
ASGs general assembly after
stalling in committee for three
months.
The resolution recommends
the addition of an A-plus to the
systemwide grading scale, a
numerical equivalent of 4.333.
The overall GPA is capped at 4.0,
and grading is ultimately up to
the instructors discretion.
The Clean Energy Act, which
voices the associations support
for 100 percent renewable ener-
gy in the UNC system by 2050,
almost didnt go to the floor.
But after the association heard
a presentation led by Caroline
Hansley of the N.C. Student
Energy Network, the resolution
was passed unanimously. Hansley
said Duke Energy controls 83
percent of North Carolinas energy
grid, and the system spends $226
million per year on energy.
Once the resolution is intro-
duced at the Appalachian
Energy Summit on Tuesday in
Greensboro, discussion of a spe-
cific plan can begin, she said.
Three months after UNC-
CH almost left the association
because of its organizational
issues, ASG has passed a struc-
tural reform, the first in a set of
reforms introduced by NCSU del-
egates, including Parker.
The reform passed was to con-
solidate the ASGs five committees
into three, and it passed 24-6 with
three abstentions. Nunnery said
he plans to veto the bill for word-
ing issues and then resubmit it for
the next meeting, with Parkers
support. He has 10 days to veto.
Nunnery said the committee
structure was a scapegoat dis-
tracting from the real issue.
(The issue is) delegates who
seem more worried about, Hey,
what are you doing tonight at the
bar? versus Hey, what are you
doing tonight at the committee
meeting? he said.
Crystal Bayne, student body
president of UNC-Greensboro,
was one of the delegates who
supported the resolution.
We get it, everyones taking
personal responsibility, she said.
Its time to pull the trigger.

Students nonprot works to spread solar power
By Tyler J. Rouse
Staff Writer
Molded by a dynasty of solar
energy entrepreneurs, UNC
sophomore Alexander Wilhelm
has ventured beyond U.S. borders
to increase access to solar with his
own nonprofit corporation.
Putting solar energy into
developing countries is a hobby
now, Wilhelm said. Creating the
nonprofit aspect of it just makes
it legit.
Wilhelm, recently admitted
to the Kenan-Flagler Business
School, said his parents, Markus
and Cathy, served as role models
and educators after they started
their own real estate company
for green homes in Chapel Hill
before turning it into Strata Solar
LLC in 2008.
Wilhelms interest in renewable
energy, coupled with his passion
for helping underprivileged com-
munities, influenced his decision
to create United Solar Initiative
Inc. USI Inc. aims to positively
impact communities in the United
States and abroad by providing
the tools necessary to have a sus-
tainable source of electricity.
He said he is currently net-
working to gain sponsorships so
he can hire a paid full-time staff.
Wilhelm interned with his par-
ents company one summer and
gained experience in the field of
finance.
He saw us when we were only
five employees, Cathy Wilhelm
said about her son working at
Strata Solar. He saw the growth
and knew what it took to make
(his nonprofit) work.
USI Inc.s solar energy systems
provide lighting, water-pumping
capabilities and other general
electrical needs for underprivi-
leged communities.
Kenya and Nicaragua are two
prospective areas Wilhelm has cho-
sen to focus on. In these countries,
his nonprofit will target schools,
hospitals and girls shelters.
Wilhelm said that an advan-
tage to placing solar energy in
schools is that adult literacy
classes can be taught at night. He
hopes to provide solar energy to
hundreds of schools, both inter-
nationally and domestically.
Michele Hoyman, a profes-
sor of political science at UNC,
taught Wilhelm the fundamentals
of social entrepreneurship and
was instrumental in Wilhelms
decision to pursue his nonprofit.
Hes your model UNC student,
Hoyman said. He definitely rep-
resents Carolina values.
Wilhelms enthusiasm for solar
energy also pushed him to join
UNCs Student Environmental
Action Coalition, where he now
serves as co-president with UNC
sophomore Megan Neligan.
Wilhelm and Neligan were specifi-
cally asked by SEAC advisor Greg
Gangi to revamp the declining
environmental group on campus.
Alex is someone thats really
thinking of how to make a differ-
ence, Gangi said. He really has
a vision. Hes actively creating the
world he wants to live in a world
powered by renewable energy.

More than just the 18
percent
TO THE EDITOR:
On Feb. 21, the UNC
Board of Governors voted
to ask the N.C. General
Assembly to repeal a 12.3
percent tuition hike for
out-of-state students. Last
weeks Board of Governors
will decide tuition article
raised an important issue in
the conversation on tuition
hikes a lack of student
voices.
The lack of visible stu-
dent discontent is problem-
atic because it contributes
to the perception that this
is an issue that only affects
out-of-state students. If
imminent tuition hikes only
matter to 18 percent of the
student body, why should
they be a cause for con-
cern for the BOG? On the
contrary, I reject the idea
that a 12.3 percent tuition
increase will impact only 18
percent of Tar Heels.
As Chancellor Carol Folt
mentioned in a statement
to the BOG last month,
increased out-of-state tuition
discourages out-of-state stu-
dents from applying to UNC,
ultimately affecting the qual-
ity and diversity of our stu-
dent body. If North Carolina
chooses to indirectly limit
the students it invites to its
universities, we rob ourselves
not only of talent but also of
the diversity that defines this
university.
UNC consistently ranks
among our nations best
value schools and contin-
ues to serve as a beacon
for top-quality, affordable
education. The imposition
of tuition hikes threatens
these values. As the costs of
a college education become
increasingly prohibitive to
all but the most privileged
young people, it is impera-
tive that we as Carolina
students take a stand to
reverse this trend.

Duke Quickhit was in
bad taste
TO THE EDITOR:
I was extremely disap-
pointed by last weeks

the writers at the DTH
would be so callous as to
bring up the recent revela-
tion of a first-year Duke stu-
dent who also works as an

their Duke-themed edition.
I am frankly appalled that
the DTH would single out a
clearly bright and hardwork-
ing student for the purposes
of stoking the UNC-Duke
rivalry. It is inappropriate,
and I hope that the writ-
ers at the DTH think more
carefully before publishing

Dont
miss out
on gains
in Asia
T
he Trans-Pacific
Partnership is the big-
gest trade deal youve
never heard of. The subject of
nearly a decade of negotiations,
the deal has the potential to cre-
ate one of the largest reductions
of tariffs and regulatory barriers
to trade in history. It involves
12 countries, representing 40
percent of the worlds Gross
Domestic Product.
If youve ever taken
Economics 101, you know the
Ricardian logic that proves free
trade makes everyone better off.
If you havent, the argument is
pretty straightforward. If two
countries have different capaci-
ties to make different products,
they are better off specializing
in whatever they are best at
making, and then trading. This
creates more total material
welfare, and when there is free
trade, everyone is better off.
This basic economic logic
applies to the TPP, on a huge
scale. The Peterson Institute
for international economics
has estimated that enacting
the TPP could result in $78
billion worth of gains annually
for the U.S. economy. Even for
the worlds largest economy,
that is a figure worth pursuing.
On a less abstract level, gains
from the TPP would be passed
along to people like the average
UNC student through lower
costs for consumers you will
pay less for almost everything
that you buy. Moreover, the
reduction in regulations will
create a better business envi-
ronment for cross-Pacific ven-
tures, meaning there may be
more jobs or business oppor-
tunities available for UNCs
hordes of global entrepreneurs.
The TPP represents what
national security advisor Tom
Donilon called the centerpiece
of our economic rebalancing
to Asia. The deal represents a
chance to improve Americas
stature in the Asia-Pacific, a
crucial objective given the cur-
rent administrations consistent
bungling of their supposed new
emphasis on the region and the
growing sense of abandonment
in many of our Asian allies.
So, the TPP is economically a
good deal for countries on both
sides, as well as a boon to con-
sumers and a chance to enhance
Americas strategic position. It
is fairly unsurprising, then, that
some Democrats in Congress
have a problem with it.
Leading Democrats, includ-
ing Harry Reid and Nancy
Pelosi have opposed giving
President Barack Obama
fast-track authority to nego-
tiate the deal, meaning that
he would need only a simple
majority rather than a two-
thirds majority to approve the
eventual product.
At first blush, Democratic
demands that the full text of
the deal be made public before
they give fast track authority
seem reasonable, but the fact is
that most trade agreements are
made privately so that govern-
ments have more room to nego-
tiate. Voting against fast-track
authority would send a message
to potential TPP partners that
the U.S. is not committed to
negotiations, potentially drag-
ging out negotiations that have
already taken years.
While Democrats drag their
feet over the TPP, the U.S.
is losing an opportunity to
increase its stature on the world
stage, create economic gains
across the Pacific and lower
prices for consumers like us.

something so petty.
That being said, if any-
thing should result in this
revelation, it should be a
conversation about our
collective fascination with
the sexuality of a young
woman. Why are we so
hyper-focused on womens
sexuality? Why are we quick
to judge a woman doing
something to help pay for
her expensive tuition that
also happens to be some-
thing she enjoys and feels
empowered doing?
Regardless of your views
of the adult film industry

bind we impose onto wom-

Treat the Pit Preacher
with respect
TO THE EDITOR:
Gary Birdsong, the Pit
Preacher, had quite an inter-
esting day last week. I only
witnessed a few moments,
but they inspired me to
meditate over how I react to
him and similar people.
Gary spends his life
feeding fear and anger. His
anger immediately assaults
you and infects your heart.
The disease finds a comfort-
able home in someone who
responds with rage, and it
will spread throughout your
life, poisoning relationships.
His corner only breeds
anger and contempt, and I
warn you not to tarry there.
Anger drives him, and if you
lose your head, anger moves
you as well. Other, more
noble options exist.
Its a long, slow, arduous
path that Ive watched work
consistently we need to
show Gary compassion.
It feels impossible, but is
so essential. How often do
you imagine he speaks with
people who respect him, but
deny his incorrect beliefs?
How is he supposed to treat
other people with respect
when no one treats him
with any? For the first time
in my lengthy education, I
saw two students show Gary
such unbelievable, impos-
sible respect that I had to
applaud and hopefully con-
tinue their efforts.
Its difficult to follow
their example Lord
knows Ive tried. Anger
is so quick, it often robs
our judgement before we
know it. Thats why I want
to make this request: treat
yourself, and Gary, with the
respect you both deserve. If
you cant show him love, go
somewhere else. Time spent
fueling hate is time wasted
not growing love.

L
ast week, many
students witnessed
what was perhaps
one of the most intense
recent demonstrations
in opposition to Gary
Birdsong, also known as
the Pit Preacher, as an
unidentified man vigorous-
ly protested near Birdsong
with a homophobic slur
written across his chest
and a sex toy in hand.
This incident will hope-
fully serve as a reminder
to students of the differ-
ence between discretion-
ary, effective public dis-
course and useless antics.
Regardless of his
Facebook post stating the
Improve the dialogue
EDITORIAL
contrary, it is undeniable
that this mans actions
were seen by the public as
a response to Birdsong.
Admittedly, the vast
majority of UNC stu-
dents likely disagree with
Birdsongs radical and
offensive opinions. This
is not, however, an excuse
for opposition to fall into
using inflammatory and
physically aggressive
methods of response.
Devolving to the type
of antics demonstrated
by the protesting stu-
dent this past week does
nothing to prevent or
alter the conversation
concerning Birdsongs
beliefs. The protest only
draws attention to the
novelty of the antics and
the necessary response
by Student Union staff in
detaining the protester,
not the object of the pro-
test. There was little talk
among students of the
protesters message, as
news surrounding the
event largely revolved
around every other aspect
of the display.
The issues actually being
protested by the man will
never be effectively com-
batted by juvenile, crude
acts of dissent.
There are countless
opportunities for activists
to respond to the opposi-
tions views. At the end of
the day, the message of any
protest or demonstration
should be more visible
than the means. Future
protesters should remem-
ber exactly how antics such
as those employed here
appear in the public eye.
Overzealous
displays can hurt a
message.
U
nder current
regulations set
by the Carrboro
Board of Aldermen, tow-
ing companies can charge
up to $100 for the towing
of illegally parked vehicles.
In a future meeting, the
board will decide if this
cap will rise as well as
whether towing compa-
nies should be required
to accept credit cards in
addition to cash, a matter
currently at the discretion
of towing companies.
Towing companies
should be required to
accept payment in the form
of credit cards. This isnt
simply a matter of conve-
Cash or credit
EDITORIAL
nience, but one of practical-
ity as well. Many people do
not carry this sum of cash
with them on a regular
basis, and this amount of
cash is not always readily
available for the average
person. The requirement to
pay in cash is merely anoth-
er unnecessary hindrance
to regaining ones car.
Tow truck operators have
requested that if they were
required to accept credit
cards, that they be allowed
to charge $25 more than if
the customer had the cash
on hand. This request is
unreasonable and unjust.
These arguments are often
backed by the argument
that businesses must pay a
fee to accept credit cards.
However, these fees do not
even come close to amount-
ing to $25.
There should be restric-
tions on the price towing
companies can charge
when they are in posses-
sion of vehicles because
drivers dont have any
option but to pay up if
they are to recapture pos-
session of their car.
When deciding on the
future of towing regula-
tion, it is important that
the Board of Aldermen
require tow truck com-
panies to accept credit
cards as a form of pay-
ment. It makes sense if
the Board of Aldermen
decide to raise the maxi-
mum amount of money
that towing companies
can charge to $125, a price
comparable to Chapel
Hill, but drivers should
not face a higher fee if
they lack the cash at hand.
Towing regulations
in Carrboro need
a revision.

Current Student Body

service when he created
the position of the Director

promised to bolster support

other lobbying efforts.
Students should hold
Powell, his cabinet and
especially the new Director

As the University enters
this crucial time, this sup-
port will be extremely
critical.
Traditionally, the legis-
lature has listened to the
board in implementing
tuition hikes and for
good reason. The board
has the relationships with
University administrators
and the know-how needed
to properly assess these
sorts of matters.
The board obviously
has great influence in the
General Assembly, but
there is no reason student

The Board of

There are some who
would like to see continued
cuts to the university, he said.
There are others who have a
longer-term vision about the
universitys potential and its
importance currently to North
Carolina, and I think theyll
carry the day ultimately.
Still, legislators have sever-
al priorities to consider with a
tight budget, Hans said.
The board was not unani-
mous in its decision to ask
the legislature to repeal the
increase. Marty Kotis, a board
member who voted nay, said he
plans on showing his support
of the increase to legislators.
I think we have a constitu-
tional duty to the people of the
state to provide as free as pos-
sible an education. I dont feel
like (we do that) when we shift
costs to people of the state from
out-of-state students, he said.
Board member Steven Long
said hes talked to some leg-
islators and he doesnt think
theyll be convinced to repeal.
When you look at our
nonresident tuition compared
to our peer groups, its still
very low, even with this non-

said while UNC is in the mid-
dle of its peer group in terms
of tuition, those arent the only
schools it is competing with.
Were competing with top-
30 universities and flagship
universities across the country,
he said. Out-of-state students
really have a lot of choices.
He said a University survey
of prospective students found
that such a steep increase
will have a negative effect on
applications and enrollment.
You cant just assume
that because we have a lot of
applications, people are will-
ing to pay drastically more,
he said. I understand these
things are tricky and I sym-
pathize, but I dont think the
increase on the table right
now is one our market is will-
ing to support right now.
He said next year will likely
see a decrease in applications
and enrollment due to the hike.

The University has not

We the UNC Board of
Governors, UNC-Chapel Hill
Board of Trustees, Chancellor
Folt and I have said all
along that we would re-eval-
uate next steps once the SBI
had completed its investiga-
tion, Ross said in the release.
Scrutiny of the department
began in May of 2012, when
UNC released a report that
detailed academic fraud and
irregularities among several
African and Afro-American
courses primarily between
2007 and 2009.
Former Chancellor Holden
Thorp responded to the scan-
dal in a similar manner when
it was revealed under his
leadership. In August 2012, he
tapped former Gov. Jim Martin
to lead a similar review.
After his research, Martin
concluded that the cases of
fraud were isolated and pri-
marily perpetrated by former
department chairman Julius
Nyangoro and former depart-
ment administrator Deborah
Crowder.
According to the release,
the University will cooper-
ate with Kenneth Wainstein
to resolve any questions left
unresolved by the previous
scrutiny.
The press release went on
to say that Wainstein, the
attorney investigating the
department, had no timeline
to finish his examination.
We have directed Mr.
Wainstein to ask the tough
questions, follow the facts
wherever they lead, and get
the job done, Folt said in the
release.
Wainstein, who is a partner
at a law firm in Washington,
D.C., has extensive experi-
ence working with the federal
government. He has worked
with the Justice Department
for 19 years, holding several
different leadership posi-
tions including the Assistant
Attorney General for National

Nikita Shamdasani, who
also ran for student body
president, said discussion
about the ordinance is tak-
ing place on Neighborland,
a website that allows stu-
dents to collaborate and take
action on issues relevant to
them.
Even more than just say-
ing it ll help overturn this
ordinance it ll be the thing
that creates a dialogue of why
some students are in favor
and some arent it ll be
more of a way to discuss the
issue, Shamdasani said.
The occupancy ordinance
was created to protect property
owners in the Northside and
Pine Knolls neighborhoods.
As student renters push
into these historically black,
low-income neighborhoods,
town leaders say longtime
homeowners are fleeing rising
property values.
The student population
is competing with working
families for properties and
we have to figure out a way to
serve both communities, said
Chapel Hill Town Council
member Donna Bell.
As a UNC alumna, Bell
said she understands housing
is one of the biggest costs stu-
dents have when they come to
college.
But Bell said if there is a
house where students can pay
$600 to $1,000 in rent per
bedroom, its not an afford-
able rental property for a
family.
A mom and a dad and two
kids cannot compete with the
income of four adults, she said.
Powell said he hopes to use
the campaign to educate stu-
dents on the issue and create
a discussion.
We realize this is one piece
of a much larger conversation
of how students in the Chapel
Hill community can work
together to be good neigh-
bors, Powell said.
This topic will be presented
at the Town Council meeting
on March 24. Bell said she
thinks the council is commit-
ted to creating more student
housing so students have
other options.
I would hope the students
understand that this is about
the larger needs of Chapel
Hill and is not against stu-
dents, she said.

Meningococcal
disease kills
ECHHS student
By Kelsey Weekman
Staff Writer
An East Chapel Hill
High School student died
Wednesday from meningo-
coccal disease.
How the 14-year-old was
exposed has not been deter-
mined, but he developed
symptoms on Tuesday.
His name has not been
released.
Stacy Shelp, spokeswoman
for the Orange County
Department of Health, said
meningococcal disease is only
spread by direct contact like
kissing or sharing drinks.
It is not airborne or spread
through casual contact.
This makes the disease
fairly rare, she said. According
to the latest statistics, over
the past eight years, North
Carolina has had only 18
reported cases of meningococ-
cal disease in the whole state.
Symptoms include sudden
fever, headache, stiff neck,
nausea and increased sensi-
tivity to light.
Because the students name
was not released, it is not
known if the child had been
vaccinated against meningo-
coccal infections.
The Orange County
Department of Health provid-
ed the school system with facts
so they could relay to parents
and students what was going
on and how to take precaution.
This isnt something that
would require us to close the
school and wipe it down, said
Jeffrey Nash, executive direc-
tor of community relations
at Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools.
But the worst thing that
could happen to any school
has happened the loss of a
student.
The school system has had
extra nurses, social workers
DIFFERENT DISEASES
According to the Center for
Disease Control, meningo-
coccal disease is a bacte-
rial infection that can cause
meningitis, but it is not the
same thing:

These bacteria can cause
other illnesses, including a
bloodstream infection.

Symptoms of meningococ-
cal meningitis can develop
within 3 days of exposure.

Meningitis is caused when
the protective linings of the
brain and spinal cord are
infected by this bacteria.
and counselors available to
help the students recover
from the loss.
The Parent-Teacher
Association is ready to support
parents, staff and students.
My first and most impor-
tant thought would be that the
prayers and thoughts of the
community are with the family
of this young man as they deal
with every parents greatest
fear, said Jeff Hall, president
of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro
City Schools PTA. Our role
as parent leaders is to support
the school staff and students
in whatever way we can.
The Department of Health
is connecting with those
directly affected to find out
about possible exposure and
connect them with preventa-
tive antibiotics.
Nurses are taking calls
from concerned people about
exposure and symptoms.
It is a tragic situation, but
there is not a lot of need for
community concern, Shelp
said.

ASU tops list for drug arrests UNC-G students protest tuition WCU sees record enrollment
Appalachian State University recently ranked
11th in on-campus drug arrests and 28th in
on-campus alcohol arrests among universities
nationwide, according to data from the U.S.
Department of Education
published last month.
Gunther Doerr, ASU
chief of police, said he
doesnt disagree with the
data, but he said he wants
to focus on how people
interpret it.
There are a lot of different variables that
go into the data a lot of the arrests are not
students, (and) not all (arrests are made by)
ASU police, Doerr said.
Doerr said not all arrests result in criminal
charges, and few lead to jail time.
The 142 arrests that were mentioned
95 percent of those were citations for misde-
meanor possession of marijuana, and do not
end with someone being put in jail, he said.
He said ASU is committed to minimizing
drug abuse.
Students and faculty at UNC-Greensboro
are organizing to express their concerns about
the affordability of higher education.
The N.C. Student Power Union at UNC-G
held a walkout last
Wednesday to protest rising
tuition costs.
Dhruv Pathak, a UNC-G
sophomore and one of the
organizers of the event, said
about 1,000 students and
faculty members attended the protest.
Pathak said the organization is frustrated
with the use of tuition funds to build a $91
million recreational facility.
Our tuition money is being used on a lot of
things that are superfluous, Pathak said.
Activists said about $8 million in student
fees have gone toward the project.
Pathak said he hopes the event will bring
greater attention to the issue from adminis-
trators.
Student Power is also advocating for the
UNC system to ensure a debt-free education.
Enrollment at Western Carolina University
has reached record numbers, said Phil Cauley,
the universitys director of student recruitment.
Our student enrollment has exceeded
10,000, Cauley said. Were
just looking for a slow but
steady increase.
Cauley said the univer-
sity is not at full capacity
because the accommodation
for the student population
is divided into several cat-
egories undergraduate enrollment, graduate
enrollment, on-campus students, off-campus
students and distance-learning students.
Cauley said the university has experienced
growth because of a number of factors, includ-
ing publicizing the universitys academic pro-
grams and its marching band, the largest in
North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Its a mixture of things, he said. Theres no
magic bullet.
WCU received 15,000 applications from
high school students this fall, Cauley said.
ECU provost to step down
Marilyn Sheerer, provost at East Carolina
University, will be stepping down in August.
After taking a retreat year, Sheerer said she
intends to return to the classroom.
She has been provost
since 2007. Sheerer expand-
ed ECUs honors program
and engineering program
and tried to combat the
universitys reputation for
partying.
We needed to do some-
thing to increase the academic profile of the
institution, which would change the image,
and I think the Honors College has accom-
plished that, Sheerer said in a release.
Sheerer previously served as a professor
and chairwoman of the elementary and mid-
dle grades education department, and then as
dean of the College of Education at ECU.
During her tenure as provost, she imple-
mented budget cuts with several measures,
including requiring faculty take on heavier
course loads.

UNC defense dominates
By Madison Way
Senior Writer
If the saying, Offense wins
games, defense wins champi-
onships has any merit, success
is in the cards for the North
Carolina mens lacrosse team.
The UNC defense suffocated
Dartmouth Saturday, holding
the Big Green to just 20 shots
in the 18-5 UNC victory.
I think Dartmouth had
some pretty good shooters,
but our goal was to keep them
outside of 12 yard, coach Joe
Breschi said. Im really proud
of the effort overall. I think
the guys did a terrific job on a
workman-like day.
UNC topped Dartmouth
in every stat category, forc-
ing nine more turnovers and
scooping up 17 more ground
balls than Dartmouth.
UNC relies on four defen-
semen who switch in and out
for three-man lines. A fifth
member, sophomore Zach
Powers, comes in for man-
down situations. Breschi uses
four-man rotations on offense
and defense to build depth.
I think when youre able to
build some depth, youre able
to keep the guys fresh, and not
make some of the simple mis-
takes, mental mistakes, as the
game progresses, Breschi said.
The defensive rotation is
diverse in experience, with
DTH/LAMON JOHNSON
Sopohomore defender Evan Connell (99) checks a Dartmouth attackman in UNCs win Saturday.
Nate we ll put a hand in his
face or foul him and he still
knocks it down.
When I seen him shoot it
in the game, I was so happy
for him because people finally
get to see what hes been
doing the whole time.
While Moody delivered the
final blows, it was McDonald
who struck first, sinking a
3-pointer to give UNC a 9-6
lead its first lead fewer
than four minutes into the
game.
The Tar Heels would cruise
to a 19-point halftime advan-
tage, essentially showing the
Demon Deacons the door.
UNCs success made Paige
wish the team could wear the
retro uniforms again. Just
dont ask him to wear the
mid-thigh length shorts the
1982 team used to wear.
"I like the length of our
shorts a little bit better, Paige
joked. I ll just leave it at
that.

MENS HOOPS
FROM PAGE 8
Lassiter reached on a single
and hit by pitch, respectively,
advancing on a Skye Bolt bunt.
Myers scored on a passed ball
two batters later. Then, after
an intentional walk of Parks
Jordan, Alex Raburn ripped a
single to left to tie the game,
setting the stage for Pates
walk-off single.
Fox had said after Fridays
loss that he thought anxious-
ness and inexperience had
contributed to UNCs early
offensive woes. Sundays
ninth-inning burst could
serve as some reassurance.
It couldnt have gone any
better as far as emotions for
the freshmen getting them
engaged and everything, said
Jordan, a senior. And the fact
that it was in walk-off fash-
ion was unreal. I think thats
going to be big for our team.
The win, in some respects,
harked back to the extra-
inning wins that the UNC team
of last year became known for
throughout the postseason
something most of this years
squad didnt participate in.
They watched the region-
als, Fox said. Adam Pate was
here for the super regionals
up in the stands, and you
hear him say, Boy, that would
be fun. Well, now he gets to
experience it first hand.
He got to put on his danc-
ing shoes, too.

Sankeys performance.
one player from each class. Its
two youngest players, sopho-
more Evan Connell and fresh-
man Austin Pifani, impressed
the most in Saturdays game.
Pifani picked up four
ground balls and caused three
turnovers in his third career
start. Connell picked up one
ground ball of his own, bring-
ing his season total to eight.
In the third minute of the
second quarter, Connell made
his way past the midfield line
and scored his second career
goal off an assist from senior
Pat Foster to put UNC up 5-0.
Six minutes later, redshirt
senior Greg McBride put a fast-
break play into motion that
gave Pifani his first career goal.
It was an incredible feel-
ing, Pifani said. I just came
down, Greg McBride threw it
back and I just took the shot.
In the third quarter, Pifani
went for another shot and was
denied by Dartmouths goalie.
Goalie read me, Pifani
said. Same shot as last time.
Scoring isnt a priority for
defenseman. In fact, defen-
sive goals are a rarity. Connell
and Pifani are the only long-
poles to score this season,
but Breschi said he looks to
defensemen to make transi-
tion plays and score when the
opportunity presents itself.
Weve really stressed tran-
sition, Breschi said. We tell
our (defensemen) to go over
the midfield line Sometimes
it works well, most of the time,
and sometimes it hurts you.
Weve got to continue
to learn when to take those
chances and when not to, but
I think its great for them.
We are a transition team and
guys love playing that way.

well, so I think we did a pretty
good job on both of them.
Gray and DeShields com-
bined to shoot 4-for-26 from
the field, including 0-for-10
from 3-point range .
They did do some stuff
defensively that I thought was
good against them. Id rather
not give that out what I
thought they did to stop them,
associate head coach Andrew
sees the field really well. Shes
able to sting passes in for
assists that Ive never seen
before, Friend said.
The Commodores made it
interesting midway through
the first half, countering the
early UNC dominance with
four straight goals in just
more than five minutes to
make it 5-4.
We kind of had to regroup
a little bit, Levy said.
The Commodores sudden
offensive outburst was short
lived, as UNC responded by
scoring five straight in the final
three minutes to close out the
half and slam the door early on
their visitors from Nashville.
This is the first time that
weve ever really started out
this strong, Friend said. I
think normally we kind of
have a slow start, but we
Calder said while laughing.
Grays lone field goal came
at the 10:17 mark in the second
half, giving UNC a 38-36 lead.
But the Hokies answered,
battling back to claim a three-
point lead with six seconds left.
And though his leading
scorer had struggled for near-
ly 40 minutes, Calder put the
ball in DeShields hands.
The play? A simple isolation
with the freedom to let it fly.
And as she dribbled the
ball up the court and toed
the 3-point line where just
weeks ago shed made Duke
and N.C. State pay with five
deep balls in each game
DeShields trademark look of
ferocity, her swag, reappeared.
But when the ball hit the
rim and rolled off, all she could

UNCs 3-point shooting
wakes up in blowout
By Jonathan LaMantia
Senior Writer
North Carolina, donning white Nike retro
jerseys inspired by the 1982 teams uniforms,
set season highs in 3-point shooting percent-
age and free-throw percentage in a dominat-
ing 105-72 win against Wake Forest.
The Tar Heels shot 73.3 percent from
beyond the arc and 82.8 percent from the free-
throw line.
In other words, UNC (20-7, 10-4 ACC)
looked nothing like the Jan. 5 version of itself
that fell out of the Associated Press rankings
after a 73-67 road loss to the Demon Deacons
(14-13, 4-10) down to its uniforms.
That night in Winston-Salem, the Tar Heels
shot 2-for-15 from long range, and began a
descent toward a 0-3 start in the ACC. Since
then, UNC has won nine straight by making
opponents respect scoring threats not named
Marcus Paige.
We took our threes early in possessions at
Wake. We took some tough ones, some con-
tested ones, Paige said. Tonight we worked
the ball inside first. We tried to get guys in foul
trouble, tried to attack the basket.
Then we had some good screens, and
Leslie got open for a couple really good looks,
and after that the threes started falling for us.
Leslie McDonald , who scored 19 points
including five of his six 3-point attempts,
used off-ball screens set by James Michael
McAdoo three times to find space for an open
shot.
Williams pointed to McDonalds shot selec-
tivity as a factor in his improved performance.
The Tar Heels broke the school record for
3-point percentage in games when UNC has
made 10 or more 3-pointers, flouting the
notion that this years roster isnt a shooting
team.
Of all the teams to break that record,
Williams joked after the game.
After a shooting slump, when he made
just 5-of-24 shots in the three games that
preceded his 21 points against Duke,
McDonald has increased his shot selectivity
and made opponents respect his ability to
drive to the rim.
In addition to McDonald, Paige shot 3-for-5
from beyond the arc Saturday, and freshman
guard Nate Britt, who was previously 2-for-
10 on 3-pointers all season, added one more
in the games waning minutes. Even walk-on
senior Wade Moody got in on the action, sur-
passing his five career points in 22 previous
UNC nds bats in the 9th to claim series
By Michael Lananna
Sports Editor
North Carolina had been waiting
for it.
A big hit, a clutch single, a lucky
bounce anything to alleviate some
pressure. Baseball coach Mike Fox
said Saturday that such a moment
could give his scuffling young
offense the chance to exhale.
And he was right.
On Sunday, freshman Adam Pate
was practically panting as he exited
the Boshamer Stadium locker room.
The first hit of his UNC career was
just a little dribbler to short, but it
came with the bases loaded in the
bottom of the ninth, game tied 2-2
against Xavier, sending Michael
Russell sprinting home.
The Tar Heels won 3-2, won their
first home series 2-1, and Pate soon
found himself swallowed in a sea of
blue jerseys along the first-base line.
We just had a dance-off in the
locker room, an ecstatic Pate said
after the game, naming Russell, a
junior shortstop, the dance-off winner.
It was a lot of fun. I cant even
describe it.
Fun has been hard to come by
for the Tar Heels (3-3) early on this
season. Snow moved last-weekends
scheduled home-opening series
against the College of Charleston to
Charleston, where UNC dropped
two of three games.
Then, on Friday, tough-luck los-
ing pitcher Benton Moss and the
Tar Heels fell to the Musketeers 2-1
in game one, falling to 1-3 to start a
season for the first time since 2002.
A year ago, UNC won its first 16
games and didnt lose its third until
April 23. But this isnt the same Tar
Heel team that reached last seasons
College World Series. With the start-
ing lineup missing MLB draftees
Chaz Frank, Colin Moran, Brian
Holberton and Cody Stubbs, run
support has been limited. Take away
a 12-run outpouring in the second
game of the season, and UNC has
averaged 2.2 runs per game.
On Saturday, a steal of home by
sophomore Zach Daly served as
the differential in the 2-1 UNC win.
And on Sunday, the Tar Heels didnt
reach base until the fifth, scoring all
three runs in the decisive ninth.
Were a great team we just

Tar Heels fall prey to Hokies in upset

fearlessness.
All season long, the North
Carolina womens basketball teams
freshman guard tandem has played
with those contrasting styles, bring-
ing them together to form one of
the top scoring duos in the ACC.
The most defining aspect of the
chemistry theyve concocted?
When one struggles, the other
picks up the slack.
But in No. 8 UNCs 50-47 loss
to Virginia Tech Sunday, the body
language of the teams top-two
scorers told it all.
Allisha Grays playful smiles
faded into frustration and
Diamond DeShields ice-cold
demeanor that brings fear into
her opponents eyes slowly melted.
Because against Virginia Tech
(13-14, 3-11 ACC), the unthinkable,
the unimaginable happened.
Both players failed to do what
they do best.
The two Georgia natives entered
the contest with the Hokies, who
are tied for last in the ACC, having
teamed up for 33 points a game.
But on Sunday, Virginia Tech
broke out the clamps, holding the
duo to 13 points combined and the
entire Tar Heel squad to its lowest
points total of the season.
It just wasnt our day. said
sophomore forward Xylina
McDaniel, who led UNC with 13
points. It happens sometimes.

North
Carolina
remains
unbeaten
By Wesley Lima
Staff Writer
Entering the 2014 season as the
defending national champions and
sporting the top-ranked freshman
recruiting class to boot, its no won-
der the No. 1 North Carolina womens
lacrosse team has been making quick
work of its early season opponents.
Saturday morning at Fetzer Field,
the Tar Heels did that yet again, taking
down the Commodores of Vanderbilt
with relative ease, 22-8.
Our challenge today was to play
better than we had in the past three
games, said UNC head coach Jenny
Levy.
Considering those games came by an
average margin of victory of more than
13 points, that was no easy task, but
Levy and her team managed to pull out
yet another convincing win, this time
with a 14-goal differential.
With four straight wins under their
belts to open up the championship-
defending season, UNC has won by a
combined score of 84-30.
Were not looking at results, but
were looking at how we play the game,
Levy said. We use the game as a mea-
sure of how good we can be, and our
opponents are a part of that so the
expectation is how great can we be
today.
Senior preseason All-ACC attacker
Abbey Friend continued her dominat-
ing season by contributing a career-
high six goals to the Tar Heels efforts
to bring her season total to a team-high
19 goals.
I honestly didnt even know it was a
career high until after the game, Friend
said. Our D did a really good job being
aggressive and got it up the field, and
its my job for the team to finish, so
thats what I did.
Freshman Sydney Holman led the
crisp passing attack for the Tar Heels
with six assists tying a school record
and scored a goal of her own.
Scoring is fun, but I love assisting
as well, giving my players a chance to
score, Holman said.
Her teammates appreciated those
chances.
She just does a really good job, she

UNC entered the ninth inning
trailing just 2-0, having received a
strong 6.2 innings from freshman
starter Zac Gallen. Freshman Wood

After Moodys second 3-pointer, which
clinched discounted sausage biscuits for all
