HOGAN’S TO-DO LIST
LAYING THE FOUNDATION
Medlin prepares for year
by yunzhu zhang
staff writer
With classes starting in just 33 days, Hogan
Medlin and his administration are working to
accomplish their goals.
Medlin, UNC’s student body president, ran
under a 68-page platform that outlined what
he hoped to achieve during his year in office.
This summer, he and his administration got
started.
Before tuition was raised on July 13, Medlin
spent much of June writing letters and mak-
ing phone calls to help make sure any tuition
changes were absolutely necessary.

Outdoor drama institute to go East
By Colin Warren-Hicks
Staff Writer
Each summer, cannons sound,
swords clash and actors spout
rapturous monologues as North
Carolina outdoor theaters host
more than 153,000 spectators
annually.
The trend of American out-
door theater originated in North
Carolina, where renowned UNC
alumnus Paul Green wrote “The
Lost Colony” — the nation’s oldest
outdoor drama — in 1937.
Flight concerns unfounded 19 arrested at Wake

A tragic plane crash that killed
one and sent two to the hospital
forced the town to look at the
safety of the University’s Horace
Williams Airport.
But officials urge that any flight
safety concern resulting from the
crash is unfounded, both on the
scale of flying as a whole and of
the individual airport.

chancellor for campus services,

She said that while the National

to sustain the level of quality edu-

Since UNC-Chapel Hill is one of
the system’s larger schools, it was
dealt a large percentage of this year’s
$70 million in system cuts that total
$575 million in the last three years.
Administrators were left to
decide how to generate funding
without cutting into academics.
When the N.C. General Assembly
allowed schools to raise tuition as
part of the budget, UNC-CH real-
ized that only the maximum tuition
hike could help keep class sizes
down and avoid cutting courses.
“We and N.C. State have the
largest budgets. When there’s a
cut to the system, we have the
largest cut, and the purpose of the
$750 was to give us the ability to
make up for the cut,” said UNC

At this week’s UNC Board of
Trustees meeting, the buildings and
grounds committee discussed an
expansion project for the house.
Though no formal action was
taken, the board reviewed the
expansion’s preliminary design.
The Ronald McDonald House has
worked with UNC Hospitals since it
was opened in 1988. Its mission is to
provide a “home away from home”
for families whose children are being
treated at UNC Hospitals.
“We, as a university, have tried to
help them in ways that we feel we
can,” said Bob Winston, chairman
of the board. “One way is by giving
them University property, which
will allow them to expand.”
Although a fair amount of the
initial site planning has been
completed, the house’s expansion
must still get approval from the
University, the town of Chapel Hill
and the state of North Carolina.
UNC will be providing the house
with a 100-year lease of the prop-

presents his proposal to the Board
of Trustees. The approval process
continues to the Board of Governors
and then to the General Assembly.
“That process wasn’t followed this
year because the legislature realized
how deep the cuts were going to
be,” Executive Vice Chancellor and
Provost Bruce Carney said.
This isn’t the first time the legis-
lature has passed a seemingly last-
minute tuition increase. In 2001, it
approved a 9 percent tuition hike
two weeks into the fall semester.
Students weren’t able to provide
input this summer because the
Board of Governors asked schools
for their individual tuition hikes
less than a week after the state
budget was approved.
“Student government really did
not have an opportunity to weigh in
on this, we realize that,” Thorp said.
“And I feel bad for Hogan (Medlin) if
there are people thinking he should
have done something to stop this.
This was a product of state politics.”
Medlin, student body president,

ing to protest a Wake County public schools student assignment policy.

The board members watched the
scene from a second-floor window.
School Board Vice Chairwoman
Debra Goldman said there’s a big
void in the information getting to
the general public.
“I think it’s really sad that people
are getting so angry,” Goldman said
as she watched the arrests occur.
At the board meeting, Chairman
Ron Margiotta opened by address-
ing this concern.
Margiotta explained that the
intention of the new assignment
policy was to alleviate inefficiencies
of the old assignment policy.
“This board does not intend
to create high poverty or low-
performing schools” he said.
People from both sides attended
the meeting, making the public
comment session emotional.
Board member John Tedesco,
who is part of the majority in favor
of neighborhood schools, said peo-
ple don’t understand the issue.

said that he anticipates future cuts
and that the tuition process must be
re-evaluated to ensure that student
input doesn’t get bypassed again.
“I hate playing the catch-up
game,” Medlin said. “Now we have
to say to students when they get
back, ‘Here’s what happened while
you were gone, and here’s what you
will have to pay.’”
Many students were understand-
ing, Medlin said, but some are con-
cerned about setting a precedent for
using students as a source of revenue
to fill budget gaps. He said he would
present these concerns at the Board
of Trustees meeting this week.
“While many students understand
the need for the increase, Trustees
need to realize the need for more
outside funding to help with the cuts
we are facing,” Medlin said.
Rising junior Susannah Thomas
said she was shocked when she heard
about the $950 tuition hike.
“I think any student who didn’t
think a tuition increase would hap-
pen must be living under a rock,”
Thomas said. “But they could have
found other places to cut from.”
Rising junior David Ingraham
dth/Annie Clark
said. “We’re not doing that.”
Yevonne Brannon, leader of the
Great Schools in Wake Coalition,
said she believes otherwise.
Like Brannon, many parents and
students continue to argue that the
new plan is de facto segregation,
and they are not backing down.
Minutes before the end of pub-
lic comment time, Camellia Lee,
a 19-year-old from Chapel Hill,
gave a spoken-word performance.
Others joined in her chanting.
Lee and others were arrested
when they refused to vacate the front
of the room.
UNC freshman Laurel Ashton,
2008 UNC graduate Marie Garlock
and 2009 graduate Rob Stephens
were arrested for second-degree
trespassing and disorderly con-
duct.
“If people want to come from
out of town and get arrested, OK,”
Tedesco said. “I’m ready to get to
work.”
After the arrests, students at the
meeting joined arms. Some cried.
The chants of protestors filled the
streets and the board room:
“Forward ever, backwards never.”

and outgoing flights, it is difficult
to measure and compare num-
ber of flights per airport. Chapel
Hill has, though, comparatively
fewer crashes per revenue-based
flights according to records from
the Safety Board and the Federal
Aviation Administration.
But Elfland said these numbers
might not mean much, as the major-
ity of flights in Horace Williams
Airport are not commercial.
Crashes generate fear among
passengers because they typically
trophe, but in reality, aviation is
possibly the safest mode of trans-
portation, said John Kasarda, a
professor at UNC’s Kenan-Flagler
Business School and an expert on
the aviation industry.
“What happens when there’s a
plane accident, especially if numer-
ous people are killed? It’s national
news,” he said. “But thousands of
people die on the highway every
week, and it’s business as usual.”
Walter Mack, a Chapel Hill
costume collection, award-winning
designer William Ivey Long shaped
an exquisite new wardrobe for the
players.
“By summer of 2008, we had
made 1,000 new costumes,” Long
said.
Such devotion and subsequent
fan loyalty stems in part from the
drama’s connection to the local
culture.
“ T he L ost Colony ” stages
Roanoke Island’s infamous legacy,
on the same ground where the his-
toric events occurred.
“The local community caused
(the show) to happen,” Long said.
“It is a grassroots springing up
and celebration of their history.”

resident for 12 years, goes fairly
frequently to the airport because
his son-in-law, a pilot, uses it to fly
in from Philadelphia. He said that
while it doesn’t affect safety stan-
dards, he has seen the quality of the
airport decline considerably.
“They’re not putting any mainte-
nance into the buildings, paint and
so forth,” he said.
He said his son-in-law, while
he has had a great experience fre-
quenting the airport, does find the
runway difficult to land on.
“It’s been my experience as a
long-term resident that, over the
years, it’s been a quite safe airport,”
Kasarda said. “I never remember a
fatality there.”
There have been 25 plane crash-
es — only six of them fatal — in
Chapel Hill since 1962.
Elfland said the airport can do
nothing to prevent pilot errors.
“If people have property and
licences, can the town do anything to
prevent people from having a license
on the roadway? No,” she said.

received avid support from stead-
fast fans.
“The more times you see it, the
more the subtlety of the horrors of
war or what people were wrestling
with inside themselves are noticed,”
said Wilson.
Theaters such as The Montford
Park Players, which presents free
outdoor Shakespeare, attribute
their popularity to the laid-back
natural atmosphere.
“Being in a park setting, they
can bring a bottle of wine, sit out
and enjoy themselves as the sun
goes over the horizon and the play
starts,” Johnson said.

EMS aims for speedier response time
by Hillary Rose Owens
Staff Writer
Efforts are being made to lower
the average emergency response
time for Orange County after it
was scrutinized for falling below
the state average.
Orange County Emergency
Services and South Orange Rescue
Squad renewed a partnership ear-
lier this month in which Emergency
Medical Services will provide the
rescue squad, an all-volunteer staff
based in Carrboro, with a paramed-
ic in their ambulances.
This allows the rescue squad to
provide more complicated care,
essentially making them an addi-
tional EMS unit.
Capt. Kim Woodward, opera-
tions manager at Orange County
EMS, said the rescue squad can only
provide basic life support on its own

spontaneous and stay in character,”
said Susan Carter, of Washington,
D.C., who was visiting family.
The hilarity was intermittently
suppressed by heartfelt confes-
sions, but only for a moment, then
the laughter continued.
“Our goal was to make you laugh
but also to make you feel good,”
Reitz said of the production’s more
serious plays.
“We tried to keep it consistent
throughout, whether you’re laugh-
ing or not.”
By the end, their white T-shirts
were covered in an assortment of
food and drink. They had sung and
danced, recited poetry and read
letters, performed with a variety
of guests and in various states of
undress — and even crowned roy-
alty — all in less than an hour.
“And we still need a hero,” the
four performers said in conclusion.

vide advanced paramedic support,
such as cardiac medication.
Woodward said South Orange will
run one of its own ambulances three
times a week with an Orange County
EMS paramedic in the car.
They will also run during the
surge times, when EMS receives the
most calls.
“They are providing the para-
medic, and we are providing
the ambulance and two EMTs,”
South Orange Rescue Squad Chief
Matthew Mauzy said.
Since Orange County EMS dis-
covered their ambulance response
time fell below the state’s average,
they have been brainstorming new
ways to get back on target.
Orange County Emergency
Services has a goal to bring the
average response time down from
17 minutes to 12.

William Reid, a 2009 graduate,
preformed in the theatre before its

“As a historical landmark, it has
such an awesome feeling just being

“You feel a sort of importance,
knowing how many performers

Rosario Lopez is a guest columnist
and UNC-CH alumni.
E-mail:rosariolh@msn.com
What we
have to
do is just
DREAM
M
y name is Rosario
Lopez. I am a Tar Heel;
I am also undocument-
ed. I am not the only one who is
both of those things.
On June 14, two friends and I
began a hunger strike that lasted
two weeks. We are asking U.S.
Sen. Kay Hagan, D-N.C., to co-
sponsor the Development, Relief
and Education of Alien Minors
(DREAM) Act — legislation
that would allow us to earn legal
residence in the country we call
home.
We have remained silent
for too long — afraid to speak
out. But silence is no longer an
option.
We want
Guest people to
COLUMNIST understand that
we are not criminals. We pay
our taxes using Individual Tax
Identification Numbers provided
by the Internal Revenue Service.
We cannot receive welfare or
Social Security, but we do con-
tribute to the economy.
We are criminalized in the
media when we are called “ille-
gal aliens.” This robs us of our
humanity.
Why should I become a crim-
inal on my 18th birthday?
I was born in Mexico, but I
built my life here. My dreams and
goals belong to this country.
Our life in Mexico was hard;
the strike we held wasn’t the
first time I went hungry. Some
days we woke up with both
empty stomachs and an empty
refrigerator.
Out of desperation for their
family, my parents decided to
come to the United States. We
left everything behind — we had
to — in search of a better future.
I was 13 years old when we left.
The first years here were very
difficult; I had to assimilate to a
new culture, a new language and
a new way of life. But despite all
the difficulties, I graduated from
high school with honors.
As I began my college search,
I quickly learned how low the
chances of going to college are
for undocumented students. We
must pay out-of-state tuition,
we don’t qualify for loans and
scholarships are very limited.
I was blessed by the help of an
anonymous sponsor who paid
for my tuition, my books and my
health insurance.
After high school I obtained an
associate degree in biotechnology
and graduated from UNC with a
bachelor’s degree in biology.
I spent countless nights with-
out sleep. I was going to school,
working, volunteering and rais-
ing my daughter all at the same
time.
I am the first and only person
in my family to graduate from col-
lege, but I am still undocumented.
I cannot work at a lab because
I do not have a Social Security
number. I could be deported at
any moment.
Everything could be taken
away from me, including the
chance to be near my daughter,
who is an American citizen.
I am tired of living in fear.
I cannot earn legal residence
under present law.
There are thousands of stu-
dents that are in the same situ-
ation I am: hard-working high
school and college graduates that
are eager to give back to their
communities.
Please don’t let our dreams
die: tell Hagan to support the
DREAM Act.

Tuition increase is not as bad as it might seem
A
$950 tuition increase is
not a good way to start
off the school year, but it
was what had to be done.
The N.C. General Assembly
authorized campuses to
increase tuition to a maximum
of $750. N.C. State University,
UNC-Chapel Hill and UNC
School of the Arts all opted for
the maximum.
On July 14, UNC-system
President Erskine Bowles
approved the $750 tuition
increase for those campuses in
the fall.
This tuition increase, along
with a $200 increase approved
last year, will make UNC-
Chapel Hill’s tuition increase
by a total of $950.

rskine Bowles is a diffi-

A successor surely exists, but
the UNC system might be look-

The system hired R. William
Funk & Associates, a higher-
education consulting firm, in
the spring to bring in appli-
cants for Bowles’ successor.
The University has turned to
the consulting firm in the past
when looking for higher-level
position applicants.
Funk is currently conducting
a nationwide search but has yet
to narrow down a candidate to
replace Bowles.
Funk consulted on the 2008

Opinion
$70 million from the UNC
system next year. Of the $70
million, $20 million is being
eliminated from UNC-CH.
To combat the number of
students who will not be able
to afford the hike, 20 percent of
the $750 will go toward finan-
cial aid. The entirety of the pre-
viously approved $200 will also
go toward financial aid.
Unfortunately, middle-class
students who do not qualify for
financial aid will be the most
affected by the increase.
UNC-system cuts during
the past three years have been
drastic. About 900 positions
and $575 million in spending
have been eliminated.
But without this hike, more
drastic cuts would have occurred
chose Holden Thorp, who was
head of the UNC College of
Arts & Sciences at the time.
Funk was also hired as the
search consultant in the nation-
al search that resulted in the
March hiring of UNC Provost
Bruce Carney — another inter-
nal appointment.
External consulting firms
such as Funk have the resourc-
es to locate candidates from a
larger pool in order to meet the
highly distinct requirements of
a job like system president.
But if the past is any indica-
tion, the Board of Governors
should again look at candidates
closer to home.

Salem offers a whole new map

Ham’s former indoor/out-

this kind of bar needs.
An appreciation for ingre-
dients like fresh herbs and
local liquor wouldn’t be hard
to find in Orange County,
where organic and local is
part of the culture.
The bar could also unite
Chapel Hill’s bar scene with
Carrboro’s green perspective.
Chapel Hill should also look
into attracting businesses that
cater to niche demographics like
the gay and lesbian community.

events cater specifically to the
LGBT community, such as East

— such as the removal of course
sections and instructor layoffs.
Students do not come to
UNC-CH just for the low
tuition. They come to receive a
quality education.
Without the hike, UNC-CH’s
quality could have been tar-
nished, and students should not
let the increase spoil the year.
Students will have the oppor-
tunity see how the money will
be appropriated by looking at
UNC’s Tuition Visibility Report,

Body President J.J. Raynor.

The UNC system issued
a Presidential Leadership
Statement in the spring outlin-
ing the attributes of an adept
system president.
The president must be some-
one with strong leadership
experience, business acumen
and the ability to navigate leg-
islative politics. Their respon-
sibilities include “an apprecia-
tion of the history and culture
of North Carolina.”
They must also be a visionary
for the UNC system, full of fresh
ideas for future Tar Heels.
Given these guidelines, an
in-house appointment would
be the most reasonable option
and should undoubtedly be
taken into consideration.
Stir night and Vespa’s monthly
“gay night,” which have brought
some of the most consistent
crowds to party on Franklin
Street.
The space formerly known
as Mansion 462 offers a club
space perfectly suited for such
a business.
An alternative nightclub
would provide an atmosphere
where the LGBT community
can always feel comfortable,
regardless of what day it is.
These recent vacancies
should encourage planners to
go back to the drawing board.
Franklin Street is in need
of some new and fresh ideas
that should be driven by small
business owners, investors
and, most importantly, student
interests.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
New bridge could trouble
taxpayers, environment
TO THE EDITOR:
The voters and taxpayers of
North Carolina are about to be
taken on yet another ride for
an extremely expensive, clearly
unnecessary and destructive
project to be paid for with their
money.
It is the Mid-Currituck Bridge
that is making its way through
the legislative process, sucking
scarce funds as it goes, and that
will cross the already threatened
Currituck Sound to generate
even more development of the
unique natural environment of
the Outer Banks.
This bridge will, at best, serve
a very small group of people
during prime summer vacation
time by saving them travel time
to the northern end of the Outer
Banks.
By adding traffic congestion,
pollution and infrastructure
strains, it will also hasten the
destruction of the very reason
people take that time to get to
the Outer Banks.
Promoted as a “privately
funded” project through a
Spanish firm, North Carolinians
will be on the hook for 80 per-
cent to 90 percent of the pro-
jected $800 million construc-
tion cost.
And that is only the beginning
since the legislature has already
committed to providing $28 mil-
lion per year in toll subsidies —
for up to 50 years.
Add to this additional main-
tenance, safety and related costs
and you have a project that
makes the famous “Bridge to
Nowhere” seem like a bargain.
This is all occurring at a time
when the latest budget continues
to slash away at education, pub-
lic safety and more badly needed
transportation priorities.
Just look at the grades the
state receives on the ASCE
Report Card regarding the con-
dition of its infrastructure.
Why choose to use increas-
ingly scarce state funds for such
a project?
All you need to do is check
the personal financial interests
of state and county officials who
are pushing this project.
You might find they expect
benefits in terms of their land
holdings, or their construction
companies, or their other retail
activities.
It is not a “Bridge to Nowhere.”
It is a bridge to serious fiscal and
environmental damage for the
state of North Carolina for the
potential benefit of a very few.
North Carolinia has much
greater needs than this.

The Daily Tar Heel
Think with your mind, not
with your political party
TO THE EDITOR:
This is in regard to the let-
ters of support for Burr and
Marshall (“College Republicans
stir up support for Burr,” “Elaine
Marshall might not be ideal
Senate candidate,” July 15).
While I admire the two let-
ter writers’ dedication to their
causes, pro-Burr and pro-Mar-
shall, we should not care if the
best representative is Democrat
or Republican because it no lon-
ger matters.
Our two-party system is cor-
rupt with power, special inter-
est groups and lobbyists. Only
when we, the people, vote out all
incumbents (with a few excep-
tions) can we start fresh.
The two-party system no longer
works effectively and it is time for
us to declare our independence.
The political playing field
is a game played between
Republicans and Democrats, and
we are the fans getting ripped
off by this incompetence, dema-
goguery and a blind-leading-the-
blind mentality.
I say abolish the two-party
system and again make us a
nation of independents. America
was founded by individuals with
the mind to think differently, and
pursue a dream without regard
to popularity.
The young Democrats and
young Republicans of today should
abandon their party principles and
learn to think for themselves.

Kvetching board
kvetch:
v.1 (Yiddish) to complain
About that pedestrian bridge,
three words: extra-strength
dumb.
To man sitting in Davis, you
smell like sweat and Mexican
food. I’m repulsed and hungry
at the same time.
Dear DTH: less gratuity. Thanks.
Cyclists, if you want to be
treated as a vehicle, act like
one.
Getting a TB test at Campus
Health shouldn’t feel like
finally reaching the Triwizard
Cup during the Third Task.
No Kvetching Board this
week, DTH? I’m pretty sure
that Tar Heels still do dumb
things … like omitting the
Kvetching Board.
For goodness sake, can we
please go back to the Old
UNC home page?
To the dude whistling loudly
in the quad everyday, it’s
freaking me out.
