A DIFFERENT WAY OF LIFE

DTH FILE PHOTO ILLUSTRATION/DTH STAFF

Once unnoticed by Roy Williams, Marcus Paige is now North Carolinas unquestioned leader
By Grace Raynor
Sports Editor

Roy Williams wasnt there to see

Marcus Paige.
That day, the day of the 2009
Iowa 4A state championship game,
he was there for Harrison Barnes
the one all the college coaches
wanted.
Marcus was the quiet freshman,
Barnes the attention-grabbing
junior.
I was the little guy, the local
freshman guy, Marcus says six years
later. Harrison was the superstar,
the No. 1 player in the country.
Coach Williams was there, and I saw
him up in the (stands), but I dont
think he paid much attention to me.
That would change.
A couple of years later, Williams
would make another trip to Iowa
this time to Linn-Mar High School,
this time to see Marcus Paige.
I just remember when he walked

Inside

FRIGID AND FROZEN

Snow and ice caused school cancellations across the state on Tuesday,
including a delay that turned into a
snow day at UNC. Page 3

in the gym, Marcus said. He kind

of has this aura about him.
Marcuss life-long dream was
about to become a reality.

North Carolina takes notice

Marcus remembers the first time
Williams called.
Just like every other call during
the recruiting process, Paige let it
go to voicemail. He never answered
during that period because he never
knew which coach was calling.
Kansas and Virginia had expressed
their interest early, and Northern
Iowa had even made an offer to
Marcus, the eighth-grader. But his
sights were set on one program only.
I was worried What the hecks
going to happen if North Carolina
doesnt notice Marcus and hes not
offered, his mother Sherryl Paige
said. This is his dream school.
Marcus was enamored with UNC
from a very young age why exactly,

all the way from Iowa, Sherryl and sister Morgan still dont know. But growing up, his entire room was baby blue.
His pet schnoodle, which he got when
he was 13, is named Vince, after Vince
Carter. And he spent hours watching
Michael Jordan and the Bulls with his
father, Ellis. The day his Little Tikes
goal broke in the seventh grade was
the same day Sherryl knew she was in
trouble. That was the thing that, for a
few moments, allowed Marcus to pretend he was Carter, practicing dunks.
There wasnt a North Carolina
game on television that Marcus
missed and, to this day, Sherryl still
has pictures of him sporting Carter
jerseys and UNC T-shirts.
Every single part of him, Morgan
said, wanted to be at UNC.
When I say he had a dream school,
North Carolina is a dream school, she
said. He loved everything about it.
So Marcus called Williams back,
dialing the Hall of Fame coachs number as quickly as he could.

He learned that Williams needed

a point guard and had solicited
J.P. Tokotos advice in picking one.
Tokoto was high on Williams recruiting list and had also played against
Marcus in regional tournaments.
Go watch Marcus Paige play,
Tokoto told him. Williams listened.
He just said that he had sent an
assistant to watch me in one of the
earlier games and that they were
interested in following me and getting
to know me, Marcus said.
I was basically the phone conversation version of just nodding your
head repeatedly: Yes, sir, yes, yes,
sounds good, sounds good.
Marcus took a visit to Chapel Hill,
narrowed his choices down to Kansas
and UNC and quickly made up his
mind once UNC put the offer on the
table. All the years of waiting by the
door for his mom to take him to the
gym had paid off. The overly physical
pickup games in the backyard with
Morgan, who played at Wisconsin,

Carolina mens basketball team have

film room in preparation for tonights

Stadium. Page 4

had served their purpose. This was

what he had been waiting for.
I think as soon as he went on
that first unofficial visit, when he
came home I was like, Alright, we
lost him to the South, Morgan
said. I just remember him saying,
Morgan, its a whole different perspective down there. Basketball is a
whole different way of life ... I dont
know how to explain it to you other
than that, but its awesome.

An unexpected role
The text came from Kendall
Marshall.
You gotta get ready, the former
UNC point guard wrote the incoming
freshman. I think Im going to the
league.
Marcus was stunned, and so was
Williams.
I really thought he had a chance

CHAPEL HILL SHOOTING

Hate crime or not, punishment is severe

If the Chapel Hill shooter
is convicted, hell face at
least life in prison.
By Kerry Lengyel
Assistant City Editor

Police say the killing of three

Muslim students last week was motivated by an ongoing neighbor dispute
over parking but others still believe
it was a religiously-fueled hate crime.
A grand jury indicted Craig
Stephen Hicks, 46, on three counts
of first-degree murder for the deaths
of Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, his wife,
Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, 21, and
her sister, Razan Mohammad AbuSalha, 19. The three were shot dead in
their apartment earlier this month.
The FBI has launched a parallel

investigation to determine whether

their murders were a hate crime.
The concept of a parallel investigation means that federal prosecutors and investigators who have
training and expertise in federal hate
crimes laws and more sophisticated
criminal investigations will take the
lead and will work collaboratively
with N.C. and local law enforcement,
said Brooks Fuller, an adjunct professor in the School of Journalism who
specializes in hate speech.
Under the U.S. federal hate crime
acts law, a hate crime is defined as
an act in which a person attempts
to cause bodily injury to any person
because of the actual or perceived
race, color, religion or national origin of any person.
Fuller said under North Carolinas
felony laws, first-degree murder carries a sentence of life imprisonment

without parole or the death penalty.

North Carolina does not have a
hate crimes law, merely an ethnic
intimidation law that enhances the
sentence for some misdemeanors,
he said. So for a hate crimes law,
you must turn to federal law.
The U.S. attorney general is
required by law to collect statistics
about hate crimes, which are defined
in the 1990 Hate Crime Statistics Act
as crimes that manifest evidence
of prejudice based on race, religion,
sexual orientation or ethnicity.
The FBI has posted these statistics
each year to capture information
about the bias that motivates crimes.
There were 5,922 single-bias incidents in 2013, according to the FBIs
most recent report. The top three bias
categories were race, which accounted
for 48.5 percent of hate crimes; sexual
orientation, which accounted for 20.8

Burwell School open for tours

After a brief winter
break, the historical
school has reopened.
Staff Writer

By Eric Surber
Staff Writer

DTH/KIANA COLE
Burwell School, located in Hillsborough, has been opening its doors for
tours since 1970. The school for girls operated from 1837 to 1857.

Historic Hillsborough, has visited

the school multiple times.
It is a fabulous historical site
with a really rich history, she said.
It really tells what Hillsborough
was like during those years.
In a time when it was rare for
women to know little outside of
needlework, the educators at the
Burwell School made sure students
learned everything from chemistry
to religion and geography.
One of the most famous women
in the Burwell household
Elizabeth Hobbs Keckly was not
allowed to be formally educated.
Keckly was a slave who resided
with the Burwells and was passed
among many relatives of the family.
Keckly later became an
acclaimed dressmaker for the St.
Louis elite and eventually for the
First Lady of the United States,
Mary Todd Lincoln. During

this time, Keckly founded the

First Black Contraband Relief
Association to help freed slaves.
A PBS feature on Elizabeth
Keckly won an Emmy Award at the
29th Midsouth Regional Emmy
Awards Ceremony in January.
The Burwells did not educate
her, but she used what resources
and knowledge she did have to
create a lasting legacy for black
women throughout the nation.
Graduates of the Burwell
School influenced educators and
presidents of well-known colleges,
like Greensboro College and the
University of North Carolina at
Greensboro.
They learned anything the
boys would have learned, said
Natalie Baldwin, program coordinator of the Burwell School.

legislation in the past, Brooks said.

Too frequently there have been
circumstances where local officials
have been unwilling to prosecute
crimes rooted in racism, bias against
religious minorities or bias against
LGBT communities.
In a blog post, Shea Denning, a
professor of public law and government at UNC, said the punishment
for this months shooting cannot be
made more severe.
First-degree murder is a class
A felony punishable by death or
life without parole, Denning said.
Obviously, there is no greater sentence than death. Thus, regardless of
whether the killings were motivated
by religious animus, the potential
punishment for these crimes can be
made no more severe.

Attorneys general
take on Spice drug
The drugs sent 28,000
people nationwide to the
emergency room in 2011.

By Kiana Cole
From 1837 to 1857, girls from
across the country squeezed their
hoop skirts through the Burwell
Schools narrow doors.
Now, more than 150 years later,
tourists and Orange County residents squeeze through the historical schools doors for tours and
events. After a brief winter break,
the school reopened to the public
this month.
We are more than just tours,
said Rebecca Ryan, executive director of the Burwell School. We are
a very active community gathering
place. We take bringing something
to the community seriously.
Located near Hillsboroughs
historic downtown, Ryan said the
school has been opening its doors
to the community for tours since
1970. It closes down each winter
to prepare for the start of a new
year, and this year the school has
some engaging events planned.
The Burwell School hosts multiple events throughout the year,
including a Black History Month
celebration on Saturday and a
tribute to Civil War music planned
for April 21.
This weeks Black History
Month event is titled How is a
Dream Lived? Clap your Hands
and Sing! The event will take
place at Mt. Bright Baptist Church.

percent; and religion, which accounted for 17.4 percent.

Chris Brook, legal director of the
N.C. American Civil Liberties Union,
said civil rights protection and First
Amendment rights are difficult to
balance appropriately.
We believe that no ones speech
or group membership should be
used against him or her unless the
government proves a direct connection between an individuals speech
or group membership and the
crime, Brooks said.
He said hate crime legislation
can ensure that people who commit crimes based on hostility are
brought to justice.
We strongly support the inquiry
that has begun by the FBI and
the U.S. Department of Justice in
response to these murders, and
we strongly supported hate crimes

Attorneys general are fighting the

illegal sale of synthetic marijuana
with their pens.
A letter signed by 43 attorneys
general including Roy Cooper from
North Carolina was sent to nine
major oil companies last Tuesday, urging them to eliminate synthetic marijuana from their gas stations convenience stores and retail locations.
Use of the drugs is a national problem sending 28,000 people to the
emergency room in 2011.
Given the significant danger synthetic drugs present to users, especially our young people, we are extremely
troubled that these drugs have been
readily available in well-known retail
locations, the attorneys letter said.
Synthetic marijuana is often
marketed under names like K2
and Spice and is not tested for
safety, according to the American
Association of Poison Control Centers,
which received 3,679 calls due to
exposure to the drug in 2014.
Kelly Alanis-Hirsch, a researcher
who studies substance abuse disorders at UNC, said the synthetic drug
is not comparable to the organic drug,
and the lack of regulation poses a serious threat to users health.
It is created by spraying various
chemicals on herbs or other leafy
material, Alanis-Hirsch said. The

chemicals mimic the effect of THC

that appears naturally in organic marijuana, but the synthetic marijuana
compounds vary by manufacturer.
Federal and state laws prohibit the
manufacture, sale and consumption of
synthetic marijuana. Synthetic marijuana was made illegal in the state in
2011 when the N.C. General Assembly
classified it as a controlled substance.
In 2012, President Barack Obama
signed the Synthetic Drug Abuse
Prevention Act, which categorized 26
synthetic cannabinoids as Schedule
1 drugs under the Controlled
Substances Act outlawing the drugs
at the federal level.
But Alanis-Hirsch said that drug
companies have evaded the federal
law by manufacturing substances similar, but not identical, to those prohibited by the federal government.
Recipes are changed in response
to governmental efforts to make the
product illegal; thus, its marketed as
a legal high, she said.
Mary-Nel Saarloos, a medical doctor in Asheville, said she often treats
patients who have overdosed, but the
constantly changing chemical components make it difficult to diagnose.
Blood and urine tests often cant detect
these components of the drug, she said.
The National Association of
Attorneys General called for major oil
companies to revoke franchises of gas
stations that violate the federal controlled substances laws.
Young people should not die or be
seriously injured from using products
bought at gas stations or convenience
stores, the letter says.

The Daily Tar Heel

Film room a familiar place for this years Heels

By Daniel Wilco
Senior Writer

The North Carolina mens

basketball team is all too
familiar with the film room.
At times this season it has
offered a pat on the back. Its
been a haven of highlights.
But it hasnt been a happy
place as of late.
After winning six in a
row, the Tar Heels have lost
three of their last four games.
There have been a lot of lessons hidden in those losses.
A lot of lessons unearthed
through film.
Weve probably showed
this team more clips from
games than any in the last
three or four years at least,
said Coach Roy Williams.
Its games like Saturdays
at Pittsburgh that keep the
team in the film room for
hours on end. For the fans,
watching the game once
was enough. Their team has
been on the wrong end of

upsets too many times for

their liking.
The No. 15 Tar Heels (18-7,
8-4 ACC) cant shy their eyes
though. They need to see it.
I was not alarmed,
Williams said. I didnt go off
the deep end throwing chairs
or anything like that. It was
more of matter-of-factly that
weve got to play better. But
when I showed them yesterday the tape, I showed them
some good plays. There just
werent enough of them.
The film session is a
necessary evil for the next
games preparation, but for
UNCs current roster, film
study for tonights game
against No. 4 Duke (22-3,
9-3 ACC) has been going on
for quite some time.
I was a Carolina fan
growing up. I watched
quite a bit of those games,
said junior forward Brice
Johnson. One that always
stuck out was the one time
when Tyler (Hansbrough)

got elbowed in the face here.

That really set the tone. It
was like, Woah, this game is
really serious.
Its an honor to be playing
in this game.
Junior guard Marcus
Paige watched them too. He
was a Raymond Felton fan,
a Sean May fan, and yes, he
admits, a Jay Williams fan,
but he always cheered for
North Carolina.
And now that hes playing
in the game for the fifth time,
he realizes what the rivalry is
truly about.
I think thats what makes
this rivalry so special is the
mutual respect, he said.
Obviously Im not a huge
Duke fan. I dont love them.
But I really respect them and
I think thats the common
theme in the rivalry.
Roy Williams agreed. He
had just learned about the
Duke4Dean T-shirts that will
be handed out at Cameron
Indoor tonight, a tribute to

DTH FILE/CHRIS CONWAY

Forward Brice Johnson will play in his fifth game against Duke tonight, which he calls an honor.

the late Dean Smith by his

bitter rivals.
This is a big time rivalry,
but it doesnt have to be
hatred, he said. You can still

have a great rivalry.

But for the Tar Heels to
avoid another dismal filmroom session, theyll need
more than respect in Durham

tonight. Theyll need more

than a great rivalry. Theyll
need a great win.

Q&A with literary editor Luke McGinty

UNC freshman Luke
McGinty is the founder and
editor-in-chief of The Charles
Carter, a new literary magazine on campus that combines
written work with podcasts.
Now accepting submissions,
the online magazine aims to
cover all forms of writing and
engage in active editing to give
writers feedback on their work.
Staff writer Palak Patel
spoke with McGinty about
starting the publication.

starting up. Theres a core

group of 10 of us who Ive
been running ideas with. Now
that weve started getting
submissions, we are finding
people who are really passionate about it before even doing
anything. The term editor
is not accurate. The way the
process works is that everyone
is an editor. We group-read
everything and talk through it.

DTH: Ive heard this magazine also features a podcast.

Tell me a little about that and
where the idea came from.

DAILY TAR HEEL: What

inspired you to begin the
magazine?
LUKE MCGINTY: As a writer,

Ive gone through the process

so often of writing a poem or
short story and just thinking, So what? Because no
matter how good you think
something is, its really hard
to know and its really hard to
find something to do with it.
I always loved that part of
class where people have to
read what you write and get
the feedback. Thats part of
the reason why I liked it. I
also wanted to give people a
place where they could submit something and ideally it
could get published and people would read it. The third
or fourth submission we got,
the girl said, I have no idea if
its good, but at least I can get
it published. And that is the
whole point of the magazine.

DTH: How is The Charles

Carter different from other
magazines?
LM: I wanted it to be a collaborative experience. For
me, I know you can submit
something and an editor in a
far-away room reads it and gets
back to you. But Ive always
wanted a more active involvement for the author and see
how they work. We dont have
a distinctive style or genre, but
what defines us is the active
involvement from people who
care about the writing process.
DTH: Where did the idea
come from?
LM: I looked at the idea for a
few months. And then a month
or two ago, I was watching
The Social Network with

COURTESY OF LUKE MCGINTY

UNC freshman Luke McGinty founded and is now the editor-inchief of The Charles Carter, a new literary magazine on campus.

friends and I thought, this guy

is 20 and created Facebook. I
thought, He knows computer
programming and I know how
to write. It inspired me to put
my expertise into something.

It was basically like, What can

I do?

LM: For me, I always

love podcasts such as This
American Life. I always kind
of felt like you could walk into
the room after a long day and
press play and just listen to
someones story for 15 minutes.
The dream is that UNC students come home and think,
Oh what did Charles Carter
post today? I think its a way
to expand readership outside
of UNC. Were going to post

all the podcasts on the site and

iTunes, so we can get readers
from all over.

DTH: Who is your audience?

LM: One of the things I

noticed before I started working on it is that almost everyone writes something. There

are so many people who write

a story, a poem, etc. I like to
get submissions from people
you wouldnt expect, such as
a football player or a guy who
spends all his time at the gym.
My goal is that everyone who
writes something submits it
and has it read.

FROM PAGE 1

to be really, really good, but I

also thought, as he did and
as Kendall wouldve said
that he would come here and
play with Kendall Marshall
for at least a year, Williams
said. All of a sudden, Kendall
was gone, and so the head
coach handed him the ball
and said, Youve gotta run
our club.
Once under the impression
that he would play five to 10
minutes a game backing up
Marshall, Marcus was now the
starting point guard.
On one hand, he knew it
was an opportunity to prove
himself. On the other, he questioned if he was ready. That
year, the freshman averaged
8.2 points a game, a far cry
from the 28.1 he averaged his
senior year of high school and
an even farther cry from the 49
points he once scored in a state
playoff game.
The next year, as his confidence grew, so did his stat
line. The 8.2 points per game
more than doubled to 17.5,
and he became the first UNC
point guard to earn first-team
All-ACC honors as a sophomore since Phil Ford in 1976.
Known for his late-game
heroics, the student body
quickly gave him the nickname
Second-half Marcus, a term he
admits got on his nerves.
But if there was ever a time
when that scoring ability took
over in its purest form, it was
against N.C. State in Raleigh
in 2014. Thirty one of his 35
points came in the second
half and overtime, and he
won the game with 0.9 seconds left on the clock.

career so far.
He was just on fire, she
said. I hope the Lord gives
him that gift again because hes
had a rough year so far. I hope
he finds that stroke again.
Paige is still averaging 13.9
points a game this season
still good for a team-best
despite battling injuries, most
notably plantar fasciitis in his
right foot. Hes sprained both
ankles and injured a hip, and
when plantar fasciitis first
took its toll, an emotional
Marcus wondered if hed be
able to play this season.
I was freaking out that I
couldnt walk, he said. I was
like, We play in two days,
whats going on? Someone tell
me that I can play.
The trials on the court
have been humbling for the
preseason ACC Player of the
Year, who on and off the
court is only human.

A blessing to know
Everyone has had that
moment with Marcus, his
roommate Taylor Sharp says.
Its the moment when
Marcus makes you feel like hes
just another UNC student and
youve known him forever.
For Sharp, one of those
moments came in 2013, when
UNC lost to Kansas in the
NCAA Tournament, officially
ending Marcus freshman season. Sharp had traveled to the
game and was stuck in a blizzard with an exam the next
day. Marcus was heartbroken,
but he sent Sharp a text,
thanking him for his friendship and support.
It meant a lot for us as his
friends to realize that as hes
in the locker room, as hes in

that quiet, sad locker room,

he made sure to thank us for
making the trip, Sharp said.
That meant a lot.
In his free time, Marcus is a
typical UNC student. He loves
to read, and Morgan joked
that he sometimes writes freestyle raps. He and his roommates, one of whom is junior
forward Brice Johnson, make
family spaghetti dinners and
enjoy family movie nights.
Marcus wants to attend
a UNC CHiPs show, and he
and his roommates take trips
to the golf course, sand vol-

which he properly learned
how to tie a necktie with
Sharp via YouTube.
His mom has to hide the
double-stuffed Oreos from
him when he comes home,
and sometimes he stays up
too late playing Destiny, his
new favorite video game.
He makes videos for fans
with terminal illnesses, staying true to the values with
which Sherryl and his father
raised him: eye contact, kindness, manners. Theres life
outside of basketball, and

thats why hes in no hurry to

head to the NBA.
The NBAs not going anywhere. If Im good enough to
go this year then Im confident
enough that Im not gonna
have a terrible year next year,
he said. I just dont know if
I could leave just because of
how much fun Im having. You
only get to do this one time.
For Williams, theres not a
day that passes when he isnt
grateful he went back to Iowa
and later welcomed Marcus
into his program.

Historic society Residents treasure local comedy classes

raising $5K for
move to library
By Madison Flager
Senior Writer

By Haley Ray
Staff Writer

The Chapel Hill Historical

Society is scheduled to relocate to the Chapel Hill Public
Library Wednesday but the
group still needs $5,000 to
cover the cost of the move.
The money would cover
the expense of organizing
archives and cleaning newspapers, photos and maps,
said Society Board Member
Thomas Jepsen. The society
has more than 1,000 Chapel
Hill newspapers and an
extensive collection of documents dating back to 1923, all
of which have to be cleaned
and preserved before moving.
Over the years, the
Historical Society has
become Chapel Hills attic,
Jepsen said.
The Chapel Hill Historical
Society keeps books and
research materials on the
history of Chapel Hill. It also
houses bound copies of The
Chapel Hill News from 1927
through 2008.
Jepsen said the society is
about halfway to its goal of
$10,000, and plans to utilize
fundraising and the launch of a
new website to reach the total.
The move was scheduled
for Tuesday, but was pushed
back due to inclement
weather, said Susan Brown,
director of the Chapel Hill
Public Library. The sale of
the societys old space in July
prompted the organization to
find a new home. Brown said
aside from moving costs and
snow flurries, the relocation
has not hit many roadblocks.
Its been very smooth.
The timing was great,
Brown said. We had the
space and they had the need.
It made sense.
She said she doesnt foresee the society having any

problems with the new space

other than new and positive
challenges, and that there is a
good possibility of increased
interest in the societys programs and services.
With the historical societys
limited hours, there could
even be a demand for extended hours, Brown said.
Richard Ellington, president of the Historical Society,
also said he sees positive
change resulting from the
relocation. He said that last
week, 115 people attended
a program held in a library
meeting room. The societys
old space at 523 E. Franklin
St. could only accommodate
49 people, according to the
fire code.
Ellington predicted there
will be more walk-in traffic in the new location as
well. He said the Chapel Hill
Public Library is the most
heavily used library in North
Carolina, which will allow the
society to be more available to
the community.
Were looking forward to
having the new space and the
public contact, he said.
The Historical Society is
hosting an open house in
March and will continue to
accept donations for the next
few months, Jepsen said. The
organization will celebrate its
50th anniversary in 2016, and
Ellington said he hopes the
society will be around long
enough to celebrate the next
50 years.
The space were in now is
the space that was designated
by the library to one of the
staff groups, Ellington said.
So we know we probably
wont be there forever, but we
have been assured that we can
have the space for the foreseeable future.

DSI Comedy Theater

regularly hosts comedy shows
featuring improvisation,
stand-up and scenes based on
the lives of well-known local
figures like Gary Crunkleton
of The Crunkleton bar. Behind
the scenes, DSI comedians
and staff train new comics in
six-week classes focused on
improvisation, sketch comedy
or stand-up writing.
Andrew Aghapour, who is
studying to receive his doctorate in religious studies and is
a stand-up writing workshop
teacher, said his students
range from high school and
college students to retirees
to soccer moms. He also sees
veteran comedians.
While religious studies and
comedy may seem like an odd
match, Aghapour said hes
noticed that the aspects of
community and ritual and the
set of values inherent in comedy theatre make it a supplement to some performers
spiritual lives.
I see the work that I do at
DSI as a very nice extension
of what I do in the classroom,
he said. While it may seem
like mere entertainment, it
can be just as intellectual, just
as difficult and just as transformative as the work that we
do in a religious studies or a
chemistry classroom.
The classes cost $195 and
are typically limited to fewer
than 15 students. The cost can
be offset through a student
discount, internships with
DSI or scholarship money
from outside organizations.
Enrolling in a class also
comes with unlimited access
to shows, Aghapour said.
Junior Heather Wilson,
a member of UNCs False
Profits, took Aghapours
Standup 101 class last summer. An English major and
creative writing minor, Wilson
received a writing scholarship
that included a summer stipend to pursue comedy.
Wilson said she doesnt
know of anywhere else in the
area that offers these kinds
of classes.

If I were to suggest comedy classes to someone, (DSI)

would be the first thing off the
tip of my tongue, she said.
Its definitely the place to go.
Sophomore Sarah Spencer
began taking classes at DSI
last fall, and is currently in
the 401-level improv class, the
last in the improv cycle. This
semester, Spencer became a
programming intern for DSI,
which means she can trade
hours for tuition.
Spencer said she is generally one of the youngest in
her classes but thinks the
companys relocation to West
Franklin last fall will help
attract more students.
Spencer wasnt initially
planning on taking a full cycle
of classes, but as her passion
for comedy grew, as well as her
involvement in the DSI community, she kept coming back.
I absolutely fell in love with
DSI. The teachers of the classes
are all incredible and the community of people that has been

built there who just really, really want to be there are really
passionate about it, she said.
One of those teachers,
Aghapour, became involved
with DSI two years ago in
January 2013. He is now part
of Mister Diplomat, DSIs
flagship team, and is a teacher
and coach for standup classes.

I loved comedy, and I

was really interested in seeing what this theater was all
about, he said.
What I quickly discovered
was this wasnt just a theater
but a rich and supportive
community.

This is my belated
Valentines Day letter
to you, and to all of the mothers who do not get enough
credit.
Last week, I spent less than
24 hours in a sleepy southern
town, a bit like the one you
raised me in, except less hip
and more conservative. I was
interviewing for a job that
would take me far away from
home for two years. I felt scared
preparing for my next step, but
I know that it is now the time
for me to commit to doing what
I believe in as soon as possible.
The interviewers asked me
questions about my values
and how they qualified me to
do social justice work. I spoke
about my father.
It was easy to speak to his
influence. He taught me to
view a person as more than
the worst thing they have ever
done. He has fought for his
beliefs with humility for three
decades. I told the interviewers how I feel a stronger urge
every day to continue his life
project. Although he may not
live to see the end of the death
penalty, I believe I will, and I
plan to do everything I can to
make that happen.
But this is not a letter to my
father, it is a letter you.
I want to say I am sorry to
you, Mom, because I did not
speak about you in my interview, and I do not offer you
enough praise in general. I
want to apologize because the
world has never understood
the force for justice that you
are, like it has for my father.
A few weeks ago, the conservative Civitas Institute
created Mapping the Left,
a website outlining the magnitude of progressive causes
in North Carolina. My older
brother and father had the
honor of being profiled.
Little did Civitas know that
you are the chief agitator in our
family. A tireless organizer for
voter registration and a Moral
Monday arrestee, you have
always put your body in line
with your beliefs. Your passion
and energy have been a model
for my own pursuit of justice.
At home, you serve as our
undeniable political leader. In
a society where women have
to show extra love in order to
receive it in return, you have
carried the burden of love for
a family of three men. The
Rose men, like most men in
this world, have a lot to learn
about returning the love of the
women in their lives. I know
this to be true because you
ingrained it in me.
I called you to tell you I
was writing this column, and
you expressed gratitude, and
you told me this: I hope you
dont make me out to seem
long and suffering.
That is not my intention in
writing these words. I know
that you have led a full and
inspired life.
But I finished this letter sitting in a cafe, thinking about
all the times you got me a
Valentines gift and I forgot to
do the same, listening to 2Pacs
Dear Mama, on repeat, tearing up at the refrain:
Theres no way I can pay
you back. But the plan is to
show you that I understand
you are appreciated.
Happy belated Valentines
Day to all mothers, unheralded
warriors for justice.
Love, Seth.
COURT OF CULTURE
Meredith Shutt opines on the
idea of the surprise album.

A senior recounts her weeks in the hovels of Krzyzewskiville.

veryone tells me Im
crazy. I kind of agree,
but Im actually pretty proud of it.
For the past six weeks,
Ive largely spurned my
comfortable, cozy apartment in Chapel Hill in
favor of a royal blue tent
erected in the heart of Duke
Universitys campus.
Why? everyone asks, in
tones loaded with concern.
As a senior, Im guaranteed a
ticket to the mens basketball
game against Duke in the
Dean Dome on March 7. But
because of a family obligation that night, I decided to
take my second best option:
watching the Tar Heels play
at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Through the Robertson
scholarship program, I
(bizarrely) possess a Duke
student ID in addition to my
One Card. Over winter break
I sent a couple of earnest
emails to friends at Duke
and landed a spot in one of
the 12-person tent groups in
Krzyzewskiville my temporary home beginning Jan. 11.
Dukes tenting season is
structured in three consecutive phases that get progressively easier. Students can
join the line at any point,
but the earlier you join, the
better your seats are. If Im

doing this thing, I figured,

why not go all out?
The first week of tenting required me to spend
six nights in the tent and
to occupy it for an accumulated total of 26 daytime
hours. I spent 11 nights of
the next three weeks in the
tent plus about 10 daytime hours each week. Never
have I been more grateful
for 20-minute naps on the
Robertson bus.
Isnt it awful? everyone
asks. The worst part of tenting isnt treading behind
enemy lines the Dukies
are really okay if you get to
know them. The worst part
isnt the time commitment
K-ville has Wi-Fi! The
worst part isnt having to
face below-freezing temperatures and the discomfort of
sleeping on the ground.

Its the unpredictable

tent checks, signaled by a
siren, that are conducted
at random hours to maintain the integrity of the
line throughout the day
and night. One night I
stumbled from my sleeping
bag across K-ville to check
in with the line monitors
no less than four times: at
11:30 p.m., at 1 a.m., at 3
a.m. and at 6 a.m.
But what color will you
wear? everyone asks, eyes
wide with the implications of
either option.
Wearing royal blue in this
context is out of the question. Wearing Carolina Blue
among the Cameron Crazies
would put my personal
safety at risk. Ive resolved
to walk the line with a plain
white shirt.
But you can rest assured
though surely not as
soundly as I will rest
tonight that when I
stand on my well-earned
spot on the second row of
bleachers in Cameron, I
will be rooting for the team
that wears the same color
as the sky under which I
tented for six weeks.
What do you call someone whos crazier than the
Cameron Crazies? Easy: a
Carolina Crazy. Go Heels!

COLUMN

Why I hate Duke

Ian Williams timeless column on the school down the road.
Editors note: Ian
Williams, a 1990 UNC
alumnus, was a columnist
for The Daily Tar Heel in the
spring 1990 semester. The
column ran Jan. 17, 1990
that night, the Tar Heels
stomped the Blue Devils by
19 points.

recall a strange and

hazy time about four
and a half years ago,
fretting in the sweltering
heat of Hinton James 244,
sitting on my bed while the
rest of the residents scurried
outside.
My suitemate from
Brevard was parading his
spittle collection, a particularly nauseating mass
of his oral waste that he
kept in three 2-liter bottles
above the door. My roommate spoke in a dialect from
Edenton that barely passed
for anything on our side of
the language tree, and the
only things I had to wear in
the 105-degree weather were
corduroy pants from my
goofball private high school.
Tripping over bricks, showing up for classes in rooms
miles away from where the
classes were taught and getting lost by the water tower,
I might as well have had
a huge placard wrapped
around my neck that said
Oh so clueless and a number to call in case anybody
found me peeing in his yard.
But there was a time
before that. I call it The
Time When I Thought I
Wanted to Go to Duke.
For some unexplainable
reasons having to do with
planetary alignment or a
chemical imbalance, I was
set on going to that university in Durham. My high
school in Virginia brainwashed us all into thinking
that if we didnt end up
going to either Duke, UVA
or one of the Ivys we would
surely end up stocking
Pampers at Wal-Mart. So off
I scuttled to those schools,
all bushy-tailed and bated,
hopin to impress some
institutes of higher learning.
By the time I got to visiting
Duke, however, the luster
of college had begun to dull
into a bleak haze.
My tour guides name
was Lorna no lie and
she spoke in a loud, brash
voice that seemed to shake
the leaves from the cute
little shrubberies. And on
your left is Duke Chapel, the

centerpiece of our Gothic

campus. Our university is
considered by many to be
the most beautiful campus
in America.
Umm, excuse me, I said,
Where do all the kids live?
The kids, she said, in
a voice of utter disdain
reserved only for parents
whose child has been very,
very naughty. The Duke student body mostly lives in the
buildings you are looking at
right here, with the beautiful
Gothic architecture.
Well, how hard are the
classes here? Would I be
studying all the time?
She fixed her cruel New
Jersey gaze on my frightened
17-year-old soul. Look,
thats totally assuming you
even get in here at all. I
know tons of people that
would have given their left
arm to get in here. And not
only that, but- Oh, hi, Thad!
Some senior named Thad
wearing Vuarnets and baggy
khaki shorts ambled up with
an evil Gleem smile.
Leadin the kids around,
eh Lorna? he asked, and
cackled like the frat Grinch.
Yeah, she giggled, and
the two whispered to each
other while exchanging
muffled laughs.
I was herded into the cafeteria and stuck in a line for
pizza, while Lorna went off
into the crowd with some of
her friends. A scowling guy
slapped a piece of rubber
pepperoni pizza on my plate,
and as I walked across the
room to sit down, I tripped
on one of those Gothic little
cherub things on the floor
and sent my pizza flying
20 feet onto the sweater of
a girl named Annabeth, a
junior English major from
Bridgeport, Connecticut.
Oh my God! she
squealed, and every face in
the entire joint looked right
at me. Thad the sunglasses
man started to clap, and half
of the cafeteria joined in my
humiliation.

Suddenly, I was back

in third grade, and all the
boys and girls were pointing and laughing at the
picture Id drawn of my
family. Suddenly, I was sitting alone at the side of the
blacktop while everyone else
got picked for the dodgeball
team. Suddenly, I was lying
in the Iowa snow, getting my
ribs kicked by five guys who
thought Id stolen their football. I had no escape.
And thats when I decided
to go to Carolina. I had
never seen the place, had
never heard of Chapel Hill
and I picked Hinton James
because it had a laundry
room. After a while I grew
used to the town I didnt
get lost behind the water
tower, I learned where
Gardner Hall was and I
began to enjoy the company
of my suitemate, despite
his spittle collection. I also
developed a taste for basketball, and during the games I
noticed that we had certain
heated rivalries whenever we played one of those
teams, I got tense and dug
holes in the seat.
Now I realize that school
spirit is a pretty goofy thing
to some people, but Ill tell
you something: I hate Duke
with an infernal passion
undying. I hate every leaf of
every tree on that sickening
campus. I hate every fake
cherub Gothic piece of crap
that litters the buildings like
hemorrhoidal testaments to
imagined superiority. When
I see those Dookie boneheads shoe-polishing their
faces navy blue on television,
squandering their parents
money with their fratty elitist bad sportsmanship antics
and Saab stories, I want to
puke all over Durham.
So this is my request,
boys of basketball: Tonight,
I not only want you to win,
I want Krzyzewski calling
home to his mother with
tears in his eyes. I want Alaa
Abdelnaby to throw up brick
after brick. I want Rick Fox
to take Christian Laettner to
the hoop so many times that
poor Christian will be dazed
on the bench with an Etch-aSketch and a box of Crayola
crayons. I want Bobby Hurley
to trip on his shoelaces and
fly into a fat alumnus from
Wilmington. Send Thad and
Lorna home with their blue
tails between their legs.
God bless them Tar Heel
boys!

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
CUFI article didnt do
justice to speaker
TO THE EDITOR:
UNC recently hosted
Dumisani Washington,
who is the Director of
the Institute for Black
Solidarity with Israel.
Also an educator and
author, Pastor Washington
was an invited guest at
UNC by the student chapter of Christians United
for Israel to discuss Dr.
Martin Luther Kings
Pro-Israel Legacy and
Social Justice Issues of
the Middle East. Seventy
diverse students and community members listened,
engaged and learned from
Washingtons talk.
The article written
by a Daily Tar Heel staff
reporter who attended
Washingtons talk started
off with a title stating that
the Pro-Israel speaker
inspires walk-out, and
then continued to paint
a picture in which the
Unions Great Hall was
silent except for the sound
of footsteps exiting the
room and that Dumisani
Washington stood speechless at the podium.
These statements try
to paint a picture of the
talk and the events of the
evening that are not true.
Washington, far from
speechless, actively told
of his upbringing by his
parents in the civil rights
movement and asked the
students to stay and engage
with him and talked about
how many on college campuses do not want dialogue
or to listen to any narrative
other than their own.
The article then proceeded to discuss mainly
the student views by those
who came to disrupt.
Nothing of the substance
of Washingtons talk was
represented in the article,
especially the serious analysis reported of Kings actual
writing and speeches about
Israel, the Pro-Israel advocacy by national AfricanAmerican leaders who
stood with King and how
they both denounced selective, anti-Semitic targeting
of the Israeli democracy.
What is perhaps more distressing about this latter article is the fact that the author
was assigned, or volunteered
to cover, Washingtons talk
without revealing an antiIsrael bias, either to the
editors of the paper, or to its
readers. In several public
tweets only days before the
talk, the author criticized
Israel and defended Hamas.
Writing a news column
without disclosing bias goes
against journalistic ethical
guidelines, principles that
demand not only truthfulness but also objectivity,
impartiality and fairness.
A major mission of journalism is to report local and
world events accurately and
fairly without discriminatory practice. Journalism
that fails to adhere to such
values goes against the values of our democratic ideals.

A show of support
from a Hokie to Heels
TO THE EDITOR:
My second home since
childhood changed April 16,
2007. Instantly the focus
of relentless, worldwide
attention, it was no longer
a quiet, southwest Virginia
locale with a stadium roar
unrivaled on Saturdays. The
world reeled. No community hurt more than ours.
However, Hokie Nation
rallied, grieved and sought
answers.
The entire Hokie community strengthened,
tightened and rose above. A
community of which many
seek inclusion, we did not
let an overwhelming negative become Blacksburgs
connotation.
Bolstered by massive
global support, we prevailed. When our time
comes to help others, we
will never forget what was
done for us during our
vulnerability. Witnessing
Hokie Nation shoulder the
responsibility of embodying the universitys motto,
Ut Prosim That I May
Serve is an honor.
The tragedy in Chapel
Hill is another lesson. We
must do better individually and collectively. UNC
is no stranger to violence
I empathize with my
Heels. The repetitive
nature of such violence
quietly desensitizes.
Even I seek apathy sometimes, yet it eludes; a chord
is struck that resonates
deeply. Tar Heel Nation
must keep heads high and
rally as did Hokie Nation.
You will.
I hope every reader finds
the courage to graciously
serve their fellow man so
we all grow together. We
are human. Each of us
deserves a chance to live a
full life in pursuit of serving mankind to a higher
degree. We owe it to ourselves, our compatriots and
our world.
Hokies for Heels. Much
love.
