Artistic activism heals through change


UNC students, faculty and Chapel Hill
residents use art to ght racism
By Morgan Vickers
Senior Writer

Theater, known as EROT. Senior journalism and political science major Resita Cox (right) is president.

When the nations racial conflicts became


too overwhelming over the summer, senior
June Beshea found herself logging off Twitter
and turning to art.
It was a rough summer (with) a lot of death
and a lot of anger, Beshea said. I thought if
we go back into that space (of the University)
and we dont have healing, everyones going to
be so exhausted.
To find that healing, Beshea wrote and performed spoken-word poetry, read literature by
black women and attended vigils.
We get them to see things in different ways
through protesting, but we get them to feel
different ways through art, she said.
Tonight, Beshea hopes to encourage
more healing by bringing the artwork and
words of black women to the forefront at the
#SayHerName vigil in memoriam of Sandra
Bland, a 28-year-old woman found dead in her
Texas jail cell on July 13.
Like Beshea, many students and local residents have been turning to art to find peace in
the midst of an era of many racial conflicts.
In the middle of the August heat, Pierce
Freelon, a lecturer in the Department of
African, African American and Diaspora
Studies, spent two weeks helping a 12-yearold learn how to crochet hats that feature the words #BlackLivesMatter and
#SayHerName.
Freelon, who is also an artist and leader at
ARTVSM Studios on Franklin Street, helped to
run BLK AGST (pronounced Black August), a
two-week camp where young African-American
students can explore their racial identities
through various types of art such as filmmaking, beatmaking and visual art.
As M.K. Asante said, The artivist uses her
artistic talents to fight and struggle against
injustice and oppression by any medium necessary, Freelon said. Art opens up different kinds
of doors to different opportunities and new possibilities that perhaps were invisible to you prior.
During the inaugural camp, Freelon said he
attempted to not only put the black experience
into historical context but tried to make their

Trump, Deez Nuts looking good


Independent candidate and
Trump gain support in N.C.
By Joe Martin
Staff Writer

Donald Trump and Deez Nuts are


surging in recent North Carolina polls,
but analysts say current predictions are
likely to change.
Public Policy Polling, a left-leaning
private firm in Raleigh, released a presidential poll Wednesday showing Trump
as the preferred Republican candidate in
the state, with 24 percent of people who
responded supporting him. Ben Carson
and Jeb Bush followed with 14 percent
and 13 percent, respectively.
In addition to the 8 percentage-point
increase that Trump picked up since the

last PPP poll one month ago, an independent candidate called Deez Nuts has
attracted statewide attention with 9 percent of voters supporting him.
Deez Nuts is 15-year-old Brady Olson
from Iowa who filed paperwork with the
Federal Election Commission for his campaign Deez Nuts for President 2016.
Frank Pray, chairman of UNC College
Republicans, said voters are showing an
interest in Trump because the political
class has failed in addressing the same
issues every election. He said Trump has
successfully marketed his position as a
political outsider.
I think that Donald Trump, while
many of his positions are certainly outrageous, does really hit a nerve among the
American people, Pray said.

NC poised against EPAs Clean Power Plan


Legislators avoid meeting EPA
standards for carbon emission.
By Tatyana Berdan
Senior Writer

North Carolina is joining the pushback


against the Environmental Protection
Agencys Clean Power Plan with doubts
about high costs and legality but proponents argue the legislation and its deadlines
are workable.
The legislation, announced in early August,
requires states to lower their carbon emis-

sions by 2030, but the N.C. Senate barred a


recent N.C. House Bills attempt to order the
Department of Environment and Natural
Resources to develop a state plan in compliance with the CPP.
An amendment to HB 571 forced the
Senate to allow the N.C. Department of
Environment and Natural Resources leeway
in creating a plan in partial compliance with
the CPP.
But Rex Young, UNCs Environmental
Law Project spokesman and a student at the
UNC School of Law, said the plan is designed
to fail.
It doesnt go far enough to reduce emis-

artistic endeavors relevant to the many racial


problems and discussions happening today.
Similarly, as community organizer of The
Siren, a student-produced magazine focusing
on feminist issues, sophomore Olivia Linn
spent the past year using art to fight back
against prejudices.
In the spring editon, the focus topic was race.
Although The Siren focuses on combatting
different issues through art, Linn said she does
not believe that art alone can eradicate prejudices, especially one as complex as racism.
I dont think that art itself is the kind of
thing that will create the kind of change that
were looking for, she said. But it does create
a cultural shift, and it does bring awareness to
a lot of issues.
Whether or not art brings about change,
Freelon said he believes it serves as a major
driving force behind activism, particularly in
the African-American community.
The artists who are part of a community
truly have their fingers on the pulse of the
community and are truly in solidarity with
the people.
In the past few months, public figures
around Chapel Hill seem to have agreed. The
Chapel Hill Arts Council annual Community
Art Project focused on race in the 2015 project, ARTVSM in Performance: Cristo Negro,
Diablo Blanco. The Parade of Humanity
mural on the west wall of Carolina Coffee
Shop now contains the words black lives matter, painted by the artist himself after it was
vandalized with the same words.
When she turned away from the racial tensions of Twitter and found solace in art, Beshea
had ideas of solidarity and justice in mind.
I think art is activism, Beshea said.
Art is meant to push those barriers at all
times.

Q&A with
business
school dean
In April 2014 and August 2015, the White
House invited business school deans and business leaders from across the United States to
discuss why there are not as many women in
business schools and careers and what can be
done to increase those numbers.
Dean Douglas Shackelford of the UNC
Kenan-Flagler Business
School attended both meetings and talked about
them with Daily Tar Heel
senior writer Deborah
Harris.
The Daily Tar Heel: What was
your takeaway from the
White House meeting?

Douglas
Shackelford was
invited to the White
House to discuss
diversity in business
schools nationwide.

sions, he said. It would eventually result in


the EPA denying the plan so that there would
eventually be a legal conflict between the EPA
and the state.
The current bill allows the secretary of
environment and natural resources to take
legal action if the CPP is deemed to be contrary to other federal law.
But Brian Balfour, director of policy for
Civitas Institute, said implementing this
plan could result in high costs and potentially negative economic consequences for
the state.

Douglas Shackelford: I would


say basically our business
school is as successful as
about any other school
in attracting women and
addressing these issues as any other school.
And when I say that, I say that with a bit of
regret because I dont think any of the leading business schools are particularly pleased
with the current level of female enrollment,
and we wish there were more women in business at all levels.
So we all feel a bit frustrated and committed
to see what we can do in our prospective areas
to increase their involvement.

A track called Lets Be

When I opened the email,
I saw this picture of the

So, obviously, I listened to
it, and Im so glad that I did
because I love this song, and I
love, love this band.
Lets Be Bad is a biting,

QUOTE OF THE DAY

June Beshea, on art as activism

Alex Thomas

oing to college isnt


cheap, especially at
UNC. Just tuition
alone can put financial stress
on students.
Americans already owe
more than a trillion dollars in
student debt, with that number continuing to increase as
lenders across multiple sectors continue to give funds to
young borrowers.
In an effort to decrease
this amount, Democratic
presidential candidate Hillary
Clinton unveiled her plan to
make college more affordable
early this month.
The initiative, titled the
New College Compact, would
allow students to attend a
four-year public university
without taking out loans for
tuition while also providing
states that have larger percentages of low and middle-income
students with more funding.
The compact would cost
$350 billion over the next ten
years and would primarily be
paid for through closing tax
loopholes and capping tax
deductions for wealthy families.
Clinton certainly conceived
her plan with good intentions.
After all, the average college
tuition for a four-year public
institution grew more than
150 percent between 1980 and
2012, with one reason being
reductions in public investment from the public sector,
leaving students with more of
the bill.
But while students are left
paying a large portion of the
bill, Clintons plan does not
solve the overall problem of
high tuition costs. Instead, it
ignores the larger issue surrounding loans.
While the decrease in public
investment has played a major
role in the increase of tuition
costs, another contributing
factor is the rise in federal aid.
According to a study
conducted by the New York
Federal Reserve, institutions
are more open to changes that
likely increase tuition disproportionately. In other words,
when federal aid increases, so
does tuition.
The Reserve found for every
additional dollar given towards
subsidized student loans,
tuitions rose by 65 cents.
While Clintons plan might
briefly make college more
affordable, it doesnt necessarily solve the main problem as
a whole.
Based on the findings from
the Reserve, a swelling of
tuition could occur as a result
of an increase in government
investment, failing to solve the
problem at its root.
There are also concerns from
some economists about the
government creating an economic bubble by pushing more
people than necessary into college, which would increase the
amount of loans taken out and
could result in a situation similar to the 2008 housing and
economic crisis.
Instead of supporting a plan
that builds a false sense of
affordability, we should pressure both college administrators and legislators to lower
costs in a reasonable manner
by cutting unnecessary expenditures and services.
Future students cannot
afford to make heftier investments into their futures, especially if that investment could
result in the implosion of their
goals and plans.

A quiet crisis in housing


Federal recognition
needed for
Northside district.

hapel Hill and


Orange County are
not unique in their
lack of affordable housing.
There is not a single county
in the United States that
meets the demand, according to a CityLab article.
Our uniqueness lies in
the incredible resources of
our research university to
both provide funds for and
intensely research solutions to that dearth.
It ought not to be
UNCs responsibility to
subsidize affordable housing, but its commendable
that its administration did
so with a $3 million interest-free loan to the towns
Northside neighborhood
in March.
Chancellor Carol Folt
aptly captured the spirit of
this benevolent contribution with her statement.
The truth is that UNCChapel Hill not only wants
to be a part of this initiative, it must be a part of
this initiative, she said.
Because were only as
strong as the communities
that we live with and in
and work with.
Equally commendable was the work by the
Center on Poverty, Work
and Opportunity to provide solutions before it

was shut down by the


UNC Board of Governors,
apparently for the outspoken political critiques of
its director, Gene Nichol.
The spirit of its research
steadfastly lives on with
the recently created N.C.
Poverty Research Fund.
The question is, how
can the vital responsibilities of accommodating
both affordable housing
and off campus student
housing coexist?
Spewing problematic
and misinformed statements about inevitable
market realities certainly
isnt. Neither is punishing
students for minimizing
housing costs by knocking
down their walls to comply with town code.
In 2013, Todd Neal,
a realtor and investor
in the historically black
Northside neighborhood,
told The Daily Tar Heel
that attempts to halt gentrification in Northside
were futile.
The city is attempting
to tinker with supply and
demand for the romantic
notion of saving something that doesnt need to
be saved, he said.
This statement dismisses the necessity of
affordable housing and
community cohesion.
There are solutions.
The town can collaborate
with developers interested in mixed use proj-

ects on Franklin Street to


make off-campus housing for students readily
available. At the same
time, an attempt to list
Northside as a Historic
District in the National
Register could be pursued to control prices.
Not only would this
protect from further gentrification, it also seeks
to better serve the individual needs of respective
communities. Students
would be closer to both
the University and to the
attractions of Franklin,
away from quieter residential areas.
Chapel Hill could be a
more urban place in 10
years as developers are
quickly seizing opportunity to build. What is
needed now is proper
planning and foresight to
accomplish a bifurcated
goal: adding new affordable housing and protecting the little we have left,
while encouraging students to live downtown.
The groundwork for a
more affordable Chapel
Hill is being laid, and it is
imperative to stand behind
further efforts despite the
words of those who will
stand to gain from more
expensive housing.
The sustainable balance must be struck if
an equitable relationship
is to be had between all
community members.

Taming Hooker Fields


Hooker Fields needs
to create a physical
schedule.

NC students are
incredibly privileged to enjoy
the sports and recreation
facilities provided by our
University.
Well-maintained gyms,
weight rooms and outdoor fields are available
at accommodating hours
not to mention they
dont require any out-ofpocket expenses for students to access.
However, for the
University to realize continual self-improvement,
the managers of these
facilities must look to the
details of the average UNC
students experience.
One such detail is
the issue of accessibility
and efficiency regarding
Hooker Fields. Any student or community member who has frequented
the fields is probably well
aware of the pandemonium that sometimes
descends upon Hooker.
There is a simple solu-

tion a physical posting


area for students to reserve
field time. This would be
similar to the clipboard
sign-in system in Rams
Head Recreation Center.
Chapel Hill students
and community members
would be well served by an
efficient, wireless method
of allowing Hooker-users
to visualize planned events
for the fields.
For instance, Hooker
Fields employees might
use a large, stand-alone
dry-erase board to present
the days reservations.
Currently reservations
are primarily used for tryouts and practices for both
intramural and club-level
sports teams, or basically
any university group or
activity that requires prior
field reservations.
For those that seek to
use Hooker Fields for simple pick-up games of soccer, football, ultimate, etc.,
they often do so, more or
less, on a whim. By definition, pick-up games are
not planned prior.
The resulting situation
is this: would-be pick-up
players sometimes find

Hooker Fields to be too


full to enjoy.
The would-be players
then must decide if they
should seek to scrounge a
corner of a field for playing
space, negotiate with those
already using the space or
simply wait and hope for
space to become available.
These people would
benefit more by a large,
accessible schedule of the
days field reservations to
be informed on available
space upon entry.
Such a board could be
updated daily and would
require minimal attention
or upkeep. Whatever the
method, wireless accessibility is a priority. A website
currently exists with such
information, but it is not
easily accessible unless you
happened to bring your
laptop in your gym bag.
Though this is an
exceedingly minimal
problem, easy, wireless
access to field reservation
information would benefit all those who enjoy
Hooker Fields and those
who seek to improve
upon an already great
experience.

TO THE EDITOR:
Regarding the Aug. 20
letter, Evidence supports
drinking age of 21, the
suggestion was made that
health and well-being is
a primary defense of the
drinking age.
This same logic could
be used to justify the complete prohibition of alcohol because of its adverse
health effects at any age.
If the governments job is
to arbitrarily set up rules to
keep us safe from ourselves,
then what limits it from banning all potentially harmful
substances or activities?
Those in favor of a drinking age as a countermeasure
to drunk driving seem to be
unaware that drunk driving
itself is in fact illegal. This
redundancy of laws only
serves to limit freedom.
Freedom comes with
inherent risk and the
encouragement of personal
responsibility.
Does it not seem odd that
the government prohibits
an 18-year-old from having
a beer as a means to protect
his health and well-being
but has no problem sending
the same person to the front
lines in wartime?

Remove all war


memorials or none
TO THE EDITOR:
I just want to say that
if we are going to remove
Silent Sam or destroy him
because it is racist and
therefore should not be
on a state schools campus,
if that is the case, then
all Civil War memorials
should be removed from
all public places including
Philadelphia, Maryland and
any other Northern states
because after all they are
all reminders of racism, no
matter how many lives were
lost fighting that war and all
who had fought and died in
vain and the civilian lives of
the Southern women that
were raped by the Union
soldiers that pillaged, stole
and burned anything that
they could not steal.
We should also rewrite
history to say that the Civil
War did not happen just
like some folks dont believe
that the Holocaust never
took place and Adolf Hitler
did not exist.
We should just bury
our heads in the sand and
ignore all of that part of history. I guess that is the politically correct thing to do so

everybody will feel better.

Do not blame the boy


soldiers for the South
TO THE EDITOR:
Every year, a few weeks
after the fall semester
begins, an incoming freshman discovers Silent Sam
and is outraged.
Yes, Silent Sam is a monument dedicated to the 287
students who lost their lives
in the Civil War and to all
those students who fought
for the Confederate Army.
Yes, the Confederate Army
the bad guys, the ones
who fought for slavery. The
ones who, fortunately, lost.
It is true that one could
claim that this monument
glorifies the atrocities of the
Old South, and believe me,
many have tried.
Or, it could simply be the
acknowledgement of the
fact that this University is
located in the South the
land of tobacco and cotton
and sadly, slaves.
The students who
attended our University
during those days of tragedy and war were probably
primarily from the South.
It follows that naturally
they would have joined the
Southern Army, although
for the record some did join
the Union Army.
They were wrong. The
South was wrong. Slavery
was horribly, shamefully,
unimaginably wrong.
But, those wayward
boys that fought were just
that boys.
Young, probably naive,
thinking they were fighting
for the glory of their families
and friends. They were the
sons of mothers and fathers
who grieved their deaths.
They were the brothers of siblings who missed
them when they were gone.
They may have been the
young husbands or fathers
of equally young wives and
newborn babies.
They lived. And they died.
And in the embodiment of
Silent Sam, their lives and
deaths are remembered.
You can visit him and
ponder what those days
must have been like a
country split apart, families
split apart and young men
struggling to be patriotic in
the truest sense they knew,
even when now we can
recognize that their motivations and choices were misguided and immoral.
Recognizing the truth of
our history does not mean
condoning or approving of
that history. Let Silent Sam
and the souls he represents
rest in peace.

The Daily Tar Heel

In latest shows, Paperhand Puppet focuses on the little things


By Chloe Lackey
Staff Writer

DTH/KATIE WILLIAMS
Puppeteers perform Childhood as part of A Drop in the Bucket: The Big Dreams of Tiny Things.

The people at the Paperhand


Puppet Intervention bring
puppets to life.
Founded by Donovan
Zimmerman and Jan Burger,
the 16-year-long program
creates larger-than-life puppets and uses them in performances to combine music,
visual arts and storytelling in
Chapel Hills Forest Theatre.
The theme this year is A
Drop in the Bucket: The Big
Dreams of Tiny Things. The
Aug. 7 opening show had
more than 1,000 people in
attendance a record for
Paperhand.
The music happening
in the pit (of the theater),
sculpting, writing, dance
and movement create a real
synergy between art forms,
Zimmerman said.
Were looking at the tiny
everyday objects surrounding and creating the fabric
that is the story of our lives,
Zimmerman said. An old,
chipped mug pushed to the

back of the cupboard, or a


pencil stub you wrote amazing poetry with were giving voice to the overlooked
and unheard.
Before each show there is
a pre-performance, which
varies from a mime to a
troupe of cloggers depending
on the showing.
After the prelude, the show
begins with audience interaction performers encourage
the crowd to express themselves emotionally, whether
its through oohs and aahs
or cheering.
The show is divided into
skits that cover the theme of
tiny things. Jennifer Curtis,
a violinist who has played at
Carnegie Hall, highlights each
of the stories with her music,
illustrating the magic of childhood or the cheerful resilience
of a tiny town on a hillside.
Were lucky to have one
of the most fantastic artistic
presentations in the country, said Ken Moore, former
assistant director for the N.C.
Botanical Garden, which
manages the Forest Theatre.

Duke University Financial


Analyst Jen Sanford, one
of the audience members,
attended the Sunday matinee
with her daughter, Josie, and
her daughters friend.
We really enjoy it and
have gone the past few years.
The craft of the puppets is
just incredible, Sanford said.
Paperhands fan community
is invited to join Zimmerman,
Burger and their interns at
their Saxapahaw studio to help
create the puppets and props
that are used in the annual
shows. People who can paint,
sew and make paper mache
collaborate with Paperhand to
create the puppets.
Zimmerman encourages
UNC students to come to
the performances.
We like to put images
and sounds out there with
story and themes wrapped up
in it and have the audience
get what they get out of it,
Zimmerman said.
Its a myth that puppetry
is just for kids.

English 105 considered helpful for new students


By Carly Berkenblit
Staff Writer

English 105 is more than


a required course it sets
a precedent for the writing
skills expected at UNC.
English 105 became a
required course because nearly
40 percent of UNC students
were exempted from English
101 and 102 through AP credit-like courses, English professor James Thompson said.
The faculty felt that (the
students) still needed collegelevel instruction in writing,

SHACKLEFORD

DTH: At the MBA (level, the)


class of 2017 is comprised
of 70 percent men and 30
percent women, so what is
the school doing to recruit,
train and retain women in
business?

Thompson said in an email.


The course is designed to
prepare students to write in
whatever major they end up
pursuing.
I think that 105 is important because it equips the students to write well within different academic disciplines,
and to ... approach rhetorical
situations in an appropriate
way, said Rhagen Olinde, a
current English 105 teacher.
While Olinde and
Thompson said the course is
beneficial, many students had
a difficult time enrolling in

the required course.


It was fairly challenging to
get this class, freshman Trey
Hiers said in an email. I had
to wait a while before a spot
opened up.
Hiers said he likes that
everyone at UNC is required
to take the same class. He
thinks it will help him in
future classes.
The general English requirement can be fulfilled through
two routes. Students can take
English 105, the general composition and rhetoric course,
or English 105i, which offers

a more specialized course for


particular disciplines including
the humanities, business and
health and medicine.
Junior Max Cady said the
course was helpful, especially
for freshmen.
I definitely used what I
learned in English 105 in
other courses, Cady said in
an email.
Since the course is aimed
at all UNC undergraduates,
transfer students are also
required to enroll in the course.
I definitely think transfer students should have to

demonstrate competency of
the English language before
graduating, said Meredith
Summers, a junior transfer
student currently enrolled in
English 105, in an email.
The structure of the UNCspecific course might be different from required English
classes at other schools,
Olinde said.
I think that this class is
structured in a very specific
and intentional way, Olinde
said. The specific skills that
students build in this class I
wouldnt be sure that students

could find them elsewhere.


To ensure that all undergraduate students graduate
on time, incoming freshmen
and transfer students are
encouraged to enroll in the
class during their summer
registration period.
The Writing (Center) works
closely with the admissions
office to ensure that sufficient
sections are offered in the fall
and in the spring for incoming
first-year students and transfer
students, Thompson said.

our students that are actually already here and in the
program, one of the things
we are doing this year is
something we call the Deans

Each year we bring in four
prominent people who we
invite from the community,
students, faculty, etc. And this
year we rounded up three of
four of those speakers who
are women.

what we are really striving to

unusual to see women and
men equal in fact, often
the number of women is

was disappointed because
I was hoping to hear from
some school that, Hey, we
are doing a, b, c and making
a real difference, and I could
come back here and say, Hey
guys, lets start doing a, b, c
because that will really make
an impact.
Unfortunately, I cant say I
heard something like that.

women were concerned
about whether the employment they would take after
business schools would be
as open and welcoming

I think, however, that may

be letting the schools off a

there are societal issues here.
There are probably issues
of bias that we are not even
aware of.

DTH: Im sure you spoke with


leaders from other schools.
Do you have ideas as to what
other peer schools are doing
on this issue and what successful strategies the UNC
business school might want to
take up?

DTH: How much of this is the


responsibility of the business schools themselves, as
well as the outside business
community?

Shackelford: Our number is


higher for our undergraduate
program, and we have more
women in our Master of
Accounting program.
That is one of the things
I and others are trying to
understand: women and
men seem to be attracted
to different programs and
different areas in different
proportions.
I think one of things we
have learned, at all business
schools, is that its too late to
try to attract more women
through the business school
when you start looking for
applications.
So one of the issues is
dealing with the pipeline
Some of the things we
are doing are reaching out

Shackelford: I would like to


hope that, in the future, we
dont have to have these sort
of conversations because
there are large numbers of

twice about being involved

The fact that we are
having this conversation
because the White House
had a conference speaks to
the very issue that there is

But Daniel Kreiss, a professor at the School of Media


and Journalism who studies
political campaigns, said early
polls early dont tell too much
about the actual race.
What happens is that
there tends to be, over time,
more and more scrutiny of
that candidate, Kreiss said.
So we would also expect
that, perhaps, Trumps poll
numbers would not necessarily remain as stable over time
if he comes under increasing
scrutiny from the political,
and other, establishments.
Kreiss said Trumps popularity is most likely due to his
positions on policy issues that
appeal to Republican voters.
There are some people who
like that style, that hes not a
politician, a blunt talker. And
that must appeal to some people, although its kind of hard
to put a number on that or how
that actually works, he said.
Joke candidates like Deez
Nuts are likely to get more
attention at this point in the
race since few people are
actively interested in the race,
Kreiss said.
What that generally means
is that people, other than if you
are a real politico, youre just
not going to put a lot of information or energy into answering polling questions, he said.
Pray also said that people
are just having some fun since
the primary is still far away.
Theres a lot of time
between now and (the primary), and when people do
polls like that, they see something that they think is funny,
and theyre very likely to get
a good laugh out of it by putting that one down.

Ryan Switzer shies away from spotlight


The WR embraces
a fresh approach
By Pat James
Sports Editor

Expectations defined this past year for


North Carolina wide receiver Ryan Switzer.
After a stellar freshman campaign resulted
in him claiming All-America honors as a
return man, he entered his sophomore season
talking about winning the Heisman Trophy.
But a return to normalcy in 2014 has
prompted Switzer, now a junior, to take a
more discreet approach this offseason.
Some of it was a result of what I did my
freshman year, and then some of it was the
result of the expectations I set for myself, said
Switzer of the self-induced pressure from a
season ago.
I dont regret anything I said or that I did.
I just added a little bit more stress that I probably didnt need to worry about. This year, Ive
gone about it a little bit differently.
Switzers ambitions for his sophomore
season werent outlandish. He tied an NCAA
record with five punt returns for touchdowns
in 2013 and established a new school record
with a single-season average of 20.9 yards
per return.
His success left him three shy of the NCAA
career mark for punts returned for touchdowns. But after averaging only 4.6 yards per
return in 2014, Switzer enters this season just
as far away from the national record.
Its obviously hard to go from five returns
to no returns, said junior receiver Mack
Hollins. But its not something where hes
like, Im not going to have any returns anymore. Hes like, The next time I touch the
ball, Im going to be returning it.
Unfortunately he didnt have any (in 2014),
but this season he has the same mindset of,
When I touch the ball, Im going to return it,
and I trust the 10 guys who are in front of me
blocking to help me do that.
Switzer says he spent part of his offseason
watching film of his returns from a season ago
and admits he couldve taken fewer hits by not
returning a majority of the punts he fielded.

DTH/TYLER VAHAN
North Carolina wide receiver Ryan Switzer (3) waits for a position group photo to be taken at UNC football media day on Wednesday, Aug. 12.

But thats a part of growing; thats a part of


maturing, he said. Its now a part of my game
that will help me instead of hurt me.
Although he says his expectations might
have discounted the season he ended up having, Switzer continued to develop on offense
in 2014.
After moving to the position as a freshman, the 5-foot-10, 185-pound receiver led the
Tar Heels with 61 catches and 757 yards as a
sophomore. And so far in practice, he has continued making strides.

(Switzer) is starting to understand coverages and starting to understand not just


his spot but where he fits and the role, said
receivers coach Gunter Brewer. Sometimes
its not just about that position. Its about how
that position might open up someone else and
how someone else opens him up.
While breaking the national record for
punt returns for touchdowns or winning the
Heisman Trophy might not be as feasible as
they once seemed, Switzer still earned a spot
on the All-ACC preseason team as a return

specialist.
And although he hasnt vocalized it, the
expectations remain.
The older Im getting, the more I learn that
people dont have to know what youre thinking and they dont have to know what youre
doing, he said. Its kind of best that way. I
dont have to go around proclaiming my selfambitions. I can just go out and do it.
Its a little more sweeter that way.

Summer Green had to battle for


every minute.
Entering the season, the senior
forward had no guarantee of a
starting spot, despite 58 starts in
her first three years with the North
Carolina womens soccer team.
With so much talent and depth
across the board, Green was locked
into a fight for a starting spot with
Sarah Ashley Firstenberg.
Firstenberg won the battle going
into the season opener against
Weber State on Friday, but it took
less than 45 minutes for Green to
gain it back.
Summer was absolutely outstanding, defensively and offensively, Coach Anson Dorrance
said. She won the spot back.
Greens play in the first half
earned her the start to begin the
second, where she helped her
team secure a 3-0 victory over
the Wildcats. Her performance
earned her the start on Sunday
as well.
In the past, the senior has been
no stranger to creating chances.
Facing high standards, the 2014
season proved difficult for Green.
She finished in the top three
on the squad in points each of
her first two years as a Tar Heel,
but didnt manage to match that
feat her junior year, partly due to
injury.

DTH/KATIE WILLIAMS
Senior forward Summer Green (6) scored two goals Sunday afternoon.

Throughout her junior season,


Green fought compartment syndrome in both legs, which can lead
to muscle and nerve damage.
Anyone that has it will tell you
that your calves are just in agony,
Dorrance said.
But shes got a stiff upper lip, so
she played through all the pain she
had last fall.
While her physical pain played a
major role in Greens woes in 2014,
the Milford, Mich., native doesnt
attribute all of her issues to injury.
My injury affected me here and
there, but it was mostly mental,
Green said.
Now a senior, Green is taking
on the challenge of holding her
starting job and keeping her head
between her shoulders.
Her main goal this year: focusing on the task at hand.
The forward snatched at the
opportunity to do exactly that in

her first start of the season against


Fresno State on Sunday.
In just seven minutes and 14
seconds, Green tied her season
scoring total from 2014 with the
games first two goals.
As she blasted her second goal
from over 20 yards away, it was
clear the forward had come to play.
Green is part of a skilled set of
attackers, all of whom are focused
on scoring and scoring often.
Were dangerous, said sophomore Annie Kingman. We have
three lines of players that we can
play who are all dangerous and
who can all score goals.
With this much talent, Greens
starting spot is far from secured.
That will continue to be a war,
Dorrance said.
But Green has shown its a war
shes ready to fight.

As the final whistle blew on Saturday


in the North Carolina mens soccer
teams scrimmage against Coastal
Carolina, the Tar Heels knew they were
transitioning to a regular season full of
new surprises and challenges.
And while the upcoming season
might be filled with highs and lows,
the results of Saturdays scrimmage
remained consistent with the teams
preseason performance.
The No. 5 Tar Heels ended on a
high note, taking down No. 21 Coastal
Carolina 2-0. With the win, UNC finished the preseason with a 3-0 record.
The Tar Heels attack created several opportunities in the first half but
was unable to put the ball past the
Chanticleers goalkeeper, and both
teams entered halftime scoreless.
UNC opened the second half with a
few lineup changes, including moving
junior Omar Holness up to an attacking midfielder position. The Jamaican
midfielder helped create more promising opportunities and secure more
balls in the attacking third.
Holness led UNC to its first goal in
the 74th minute by drawing a penalty.
Senior midfielder Raby George took
the penalty kick for the Tar Heels and
put the ball in the back of the net to
give UNC a 1-0 lead.
UNC cemented its lead 13 minutes

later when sophomore forward Zach


Wright scored en route to handing the
Tar Heels a 2-0 win.

Quotable
Our attack is very dangerous but
incomplete in the final third We
definitely created a lot of chances. But
we still have to do better defensively
and not get countered. UNC coach
Carlos Somoano.

Notable
Wright continues to find himself in
the middle of the Tar Heels offense.
With his goal on Saturday, he finished
UNCs preseason with two goals and
one assist .
And Georges penalty kick on
Saturday marked his second consecutive preseason game with a goal from
the penalty spot.

Three numbers that matter:


5: Somoano enters his fifth season
at the helm for UNC in 2015.
26: The total number of shots
taken by both offenses on Saturday.
0: UNCs defense didnt allow a
goal in this match after looking shaky
at times during the preseason.

they take on Florida International

Julia Young, freshmen look to ll voids for UNC eld hockey


FIELD HOCKEY

NORTH CAROLINA
OLD DOMINION

By Will Bryant
Staff Writer

The North Carolina field hockey


team saw a number of starters
graduate in May, leaving voids at
several key positions coming into
the 2015 season.
At the conclusion of the 2014
campaign, one of the most notable
open spots on the UNC roster was
the defensive center back position,

vacated by the graduation of AllAmerican Samantha Travers.


But during spring and summer
practices, the Tar Heel coaching staff
was able to select a new heir to the
throne with junior back Julia Young.
Young started all 23 games for the
Tar Heels last season and earned a
spot on the All-South Region team.
She is in the later stages of transitioning to her new position after
playing attacking back in 2014.
Its an adjustment, said Young
after UNCs 5-1 win against Old
Dominion in Saturdays scrimmage.
Its hard to live up to Sam Travers
because she was so great.
While Young had a head start by

playing center back this summer


with the Under-21 U.S. National
Team, she will be tasked with helping freshman Morgan Goetz and
redshirt freshman Halle Frain transition smoothly into their positions.
Neither Frain nor Goetz have
played at the collegiate level, so
keeping them relaxed in tough situations is a priority for Young.
Frain practiced with us in the
spring, but Morgan is a true freshman, and she is still feeling her way,
Coach Karen Shelton said.
Goetz, a highly touted freshman, is
expected to flourish this season with
UNC. Young says she wants to make
sure the freshmen feel comfortable

on the field as they begin their careers


as Tar Heels, but Shelton has no concerns about Youngs leadership style.
Shelton described Young as the
perfect fit, and said the junior is
encouraging and will undoubtedly
help the young Tar Heels relax and
play their best.
Having Julia back there is so
calming, Shelton said.
Young says the team has been
extremely supportive of her shift to
center back, and she feels confident
in the abilities of the younger players
around her.
A center back is a lot like a shortstop in baseball or a point guard in
basketball, meaning communication

and leadership are vital to success.


(Theres) no pressure on me to
lead, Young said. Its an assumed
leadership (role) being center back;
I have a better view of the field.
With the preseason tuneups over
now, Young will start at center back
for the first time for the Tar Heels on
Aug. 29 in the season opener against
Michigan. Shelton feels good about
the back line going into the game.
In terms of development, we
have comfort in having had a true
dress rehearsal going into next
week, Shelton said. We are prepared for when it counts.
