Memorial service celebrates Dean Smith


Thousands went
to the service in
the Smith Center
By Aaron Dodson and Grace Raynor
Senior Writers

He taught them what he regarded to


be a mans greatest obligation in life: loyalty. And on Sunday, they proved theyd
listened and learned.
Two weeks after legendary North
Carolina mens basketball coach Dean
Smith died, thousands gathered for a public memorial service in the Dean E. Smith
Center a building named in his honor,
but one which he actually wanted to be
called the Student Activities Center.
On a stage erected in front of the student section, several of his closest mentees
returned to show their loyalty by sharing
memories and stories about their mentor.
Longtime voice of the Tar Heels Woody
Durham introduced them one by one.
You talk about loyalty, Ive never seen
a man on the face of the Earth more loyal
than him, said Phil Ford, who played for
Smith in the 1970s, the staple of the coachs
trademark Four Corner offense. If theres
a model of how we should live our lives, we
should look no further than Coachs life.
Mickey Bell played with Ford in the
1970s. He recalled the only moment when
Smith told him the word no. It happened
when Bell jokingly asked the coach if he

Residents protest predatory billing


More than 30 Carrboro residents
protested their landlords Friday.
By Marisa Bakker
Staff Writer

Dissatisfied tenants staged protests during the


weekend at apartment complexes across Carrboro
to challenge abnormally high water bills.
More than 30 community members and residents of General Services Corporation (GSC)
properties gathered Saturday to confront what
several called predatory water bill pricing. They
hand-delivered letters of protest to five GSC
properties, including Ridgewood, Royal Park,
University Lake, Carolina Apartments and
Estes Park.
We are here to send a message to GSC management were here to ask them to do the
right thing, said Rev. Nathan Hollister, who is
responsible for spearheading the communitys
response to GSCs business practices.
The letter asked GSC management to meet
with Hollister and other leaders, replace the third
party Florida-based water monitoring company
with the Orange Water and Sewer Authority, a
local utilities company, and provide a point of
contact for future tenant grievances.
Tenants gave GSC one week to respond to
demands, promising future action if the letter
is ignored.
Carrboro resident Madison Hayes said the
struggle against GSC began two years ago when
the company announced it would no longer
accept Section 8 housing vouchers, which provide rent assistance for underprivileged families.
We saw a mass exodus of mostly low-

eviction notice and were told that they had
to vacate their home within 30 days, Hayes
said. Theres no other affordable housing
in the area, so families had to quit jobs, find
transportation, pack up their homes, uproot
their kids from school and ship off to find
someplace else to live.

CHAPEL HILL SHOOTING

At Duke, Muslim students discuss moving on


The students want to
prioritize building
alliances and service.
By Sarah Brown
State & National Editor

DURHAM Its been nearly


two weeks since the shooting of
three Muslim students in Chapel
Hill rocked universities and Muslim
communities, and on Saturday,
Duke Universitys Muslim Students
Association came together to push
the conversation forward.
The event, called Building our
Community: Next Steps in Healing,
drew about two dozen students and
involved two presentations one
on the importance of engaging with
other communities to combat prejudice and another on committing to
public service to carry on the legacies of Deah Shaddy Barakat, Yusor
Mohammad Abu-Salha and Razan
Mohammad Abu-Salha.
Gary Glass, associate director for

Jackson
Hall upt

outreach and developmental programming at Dukes counseling and


psychological services, spoke first to
the students about the importance
of forming alliances with less familiar groups, potentially including
atheists and humanists.
Common ground exists among
dissimilar communities, he said. He
cited a form students fill out when
coming to CAPS, which asks about
their religious or spiritual identity
and how important it is to them.
There are increasingly a number
of students who identify as atheist
and its very important to them,
Glass said. Even a commonality
of my beliefs are very important to
me may be a place of alliance.
He asked the group why they
think solidarity is important.
Survival, protection and peace,
students answered.
The ideas of solidarity and alliances they emerge from a different kind of relationship, he said.
How can we approach exploring
solidarity and creating alliances?
By trusting a shared sense of

meaning that we have in what it is


that were pursuing.
Leena El-Sadek, a Duke senior,
then spoke to the group about various community service projects
that students could get involved in.
Barakat, Yusor Abu-Salha and
Razan Abu-Salha were dedicated to
helping refugees from the Middle
East, El-Sadek said, and the
Triangle area has the largest refugee
population in North Carolina.
Imagine yourself in their shoes
youre new to this school, youre
new to this state, youre new to this
city. You dont know the language,
you dont know the customs, you
dont know the laws and youre literally thrown into it with very, very
little support, she said.
Take your position as a student
and amplify that times 100,
because thats exactly what theyre
facing.
Many local organizations that
help refugees are Christian and
missionary in nature, El-Sadek
said, and it can create tension that
leads Muslims to not seek help.

El-Sadek helped found


Supporting Womens Action in
2013, which sponsors several projects supporting refugees including weekly English language classes
and a small business venture that
offers eyebrow threading services.
Rasheed Alhadi, vice president of
Dukes MSA, said hes felt inspired
to get more involved in community
service since the tragedy.
We can be sad, we can miss
them, and that is important, he
said. But in the end, the real way
to value what they have done, and
to show that you really respect
what they have done, is to continue
their legacy.
Service projects, he said, will
help him and other students engage
with different faith communities.
In order for me to want other
people to understand my own faith,
I need to be willing as a Muslim to
understand and accept and appreciate everyone elses faith and
differences in general.

ONE DIRECTION

The basement of Jackson Hall will


soon sport a new look.
Ashley Memory, senior assistant
director of admissions, said construction crews are installing fresh flooring
and brighter lighting. She said they will
also be painting and creating a new
meeting room by enclosing an already
existing space.
The space downstairs hasnt been
updated in years, she said.
Memory said the improvements
cost $200,000 and were self-funded
through application fee revenue and
contracted to UNC Facilities Services.
She said the renovations are a matter
of efficiency. The basement of Jackson
Hall stored many paper files, something
the admissions department no longer
needs as they have gone essentially
paperless, she said.
We need more meeting space to
accommodate meetings with families
and more internal working space, she
said. We will be able to have a more
collaborative working space by having
more room downstairs.
Memory said staff working in the basement, primarily records management
staff and administrative staff, have been
relocated to the media room upstairs.
She said the primary effect of this
renovation has been that information
sessions for tours, which usually take
place in the media room, have been
moved to other rooms on campus, like
the Great Hall in the Student Union.
Theyll be right there on campus
anyway, so were hoping that this minimizes the effect, Memory said. Our
offices are still open, so were here to
meet with visitors if they have any additional questions and would like to meet
with someone in person.
Senior Darrin Benjumea, an admissions ambassador who works at the
front desk in Jackson Hall, said there
has been a lot of reorganization due to
the renovations.
Its been hard to have guests in
Jackson Hall when theres no media
room to put them in, Benjumea said.
Its been a little bit hectic to keep track

A messy morning commute

From staff and wire reports

alk about an Oh, crap moment. Drivers in Indiana encountered a pretty disgusting surprise as they drove on a highway
this past weekend. A tanker spilled about 300 to 400 gallons
of raw sewage on an exit ramp. The weather decided to make
the situation worse. Because the temperature was below freezing, the
raw sewage froze all over the highway. The frozen waste was 6 to 8 inches
deep in some areas, according to police. The police had to close the ramp
for a few hours to clean up the sewage. After salting and sanding the frozen spillage, a truck with a front loader scraped the sewage off the road
and loaded it into a dump truck. We sincerely apologize if you are reading
this while eating.

NOTED. Kagome, a Japanese vegetable


juice company, partnered with an artistic studio to make a robot known as
Tomatan. The robot is worn as a backpack
and feeds tomatoes to the person wearing it. Apparently, Tomatan can come in
handy for Tokyo marathon runners during
the race. Interesting.

CORRECTIONS
Due to a reporting error, Fridays front page graphic and map Institutional Racism at UNC
included several fact errors. The story incorrectly identified the person after whom Murray Hall was
named. The hall was named after UNC chemistry professor Royce Murray.
The section about the Wilson Caldwell memorial inaccurately identified the UNC president who
owned Wilson Caldwell as a slave. Caldwell was owned by UNC President David Swain.
The article also incorrectly identified Sonja Haynes Stone as the first black female professor at
UNC. Hortense McClinton was the first black faculty member hired by UNC. Stone was an associate
professor and the director of UNCs African and Afro-American Studies curriculum.
The section on Spencer Residence Hall failed to note that the University closed in 1871 during
Reconstruction, and it was after that point that Cornelia Phillips Spencer worked to reopen the
University, which it did in 1875.
The Daily Tar Heel apologizes for the errors.

Bike share
might debut
in Raleigh
A study says its feasible, though the
city likely wont fund it in 2015.
By Joe Martin
Staff Writer

Bike-sharing programs have been popping up


recently in major cities across the country and on
UNCs campus and Raleigh could be next.
Bike-sharing is a system of public transportation that allows people, for a relatively small fee,
to grab a bike at a nearby kiosk, ride it around
the city and drop it off at another bike kiosk.
Daniel Rodriguez, director of the Center for
Sustainable Community Design at the UNC
Institute for the Environment, said while the
concept is popular, its not necessarily profitable.
The usage tends to be fairly high, but unfortunately it is a money-losing operation, he said.
So it requires a lot of subsidies like most transportation services.
A feasibility study conducted in Raleigh in the
summer of 2014 found that a bike-share program would be beneficial and worthwhile.
Jennifer Baldwin, bicycle and pedestrian coordinator for BikeRaleigh, said although the program will not be funded this year, discussion on
ways to implement the program will continue.
So were at the stage right now where were
just recommending a business model, the number of stations there will be, how much this is
going to cost and trying to ask the question of
how are we going to get the funding, she said.
Baldwin said a discussion about implementation that was scheduled with the Raleigh City
Council on Tuesday was canceled due to weather,
so it will likely be postponed until March or April.
Meanwhile, some UNC students are hoping to
expand the Universitys bike-share program, Tar
Heel Bikes, which was founded in the fall of 2012.
Adeyemi Olatunde, a freshman who is a part
of Tar Heel Bikes, said the program currently has
30 bikes for student use in Craige, Ehringhaus,
Morrison and Hinton James residence halls.
Its about getting people to use bikes as a mode
of transport around campus. You can use the bikes
to go to Carrboro. You can use them on weekends
to go to the farmers market, Olatunde said.
Katharine Mather, Tar Heel Bikes codirector, said though the Student Fee Advisory
Subcommittee denied the programs application for additional funding from the student
transit fee, the group hopes to apply again in
2016 and expand.
Mather said a campaign was launched last
spring with the goal to get 2,000 signatures on a
petition to expand the program.
The expanded system would be about 80
to 100 bikes. We would probably have 10 or so
locations around campus, Mather said.
She said bike-sharing offers a convenient travel option for students besides buses and walking.
Right now, if you want to go around campus,
you can either walk up quite a large hill or you
can wait for the NU or the U or RU, or whatever,
and those are very crowded and it comes every
15 minutes, Mather said. So if you need to get
somewhere in a rush, its really difficult.

OPEN WIDE, SAY AH


Kidzu Childrens Museum hosted a dental health event
By Lauren Miller
Staff Writer

The Kidzu Childrens


Museum taught Chapel Hill
children how to brighten their
smiles Saturday to get the
kids and their families excited
about smiling bright at the
museums grand opening later
in March.
I want it to open right now,
said Davis Starling, a child
participant in Kidzus Healthy
Smiles, an interactive event to
promote dental health.
The event, hosted by both
Kidzu and Southern Village
Pediatric Dentistry, featured
puppets demonstrating proper
brushing techniques, stories
for kids about dental hygiene
and a forum for parents to ask
questions about their childrens
dental development.
Dental health is important
and, once (kids) form good
habits, they benefit from them
for life, said Fam Zhang,
whose son participated in

Healthy Smiles.
We bring him here once, he
has fun, and he remembers dental health, she said.
Kidzu has served 150,000
young visitors since 2006, offering hands-on learning opportunities. The museum provides
exhibits and programs about
child health and wellness, art
education, STEM and early
learning, said Deanna Patrick,
Kidzus development and programs coordinator.
In December 2013, Kidzu
moved to what the group
calls its launchpad location in
University Mall. This month,
however, museum staff is
anticipating the opening of its
semi-permanent home, a larger space in University Mall,
with new events and programming.
The museum plans to open
a permanent space at 150 E.
Rosemary St. in 2017.
Kidzu aims to make its activities fun and memorable, but
educational and informative as

We bring him here once, he has fun, and he

well, Patrick said.


Mary Lee Batista, a dental
assistant at Southern Village
Pediatric Dentistry, said the
Healthy Smiles event was
particularly relevant because
February is National Childrens
Dental Health Month.
Its all about education, she
said. We are here to educate
children and parents alike.
During National Childrens
Dental Health Month, the
American Dental Association
publicizes research on dental topics including oral piercings, sippy
cups and dental emergencies.
Next week, Kidzu will host a
program called the Teddy Bear
Health and Wellness Clinic with
the UNC Health Care Nursing
Diversity Council to educate
children about standard health

and wellness procedures.


The program will conclude
the museums weekly series
leading up to the March opening of its new location, which
is significantly larger and will
allow for the expansion of existing programs and the creation
of new ones.
Kidzu is still seeking volunteers to help with its expansion.
Volunteers will help out with
STEM classes, arts and craft programs and special events, said
Emily Chambliss, Kidzus education and outreach coordinator.
Volunteers have lots of
interactions with the kids, help
us find upcoming events and
look for relevant crafts for the
themes, she said.

Durham mayor discusses citys growth, race with students


Carolina RISE brought the
mayor to speak about a
variety of topics Friday.
By Rebecca Brickner
Staff Writer

Durham Mayor Bill Bell wants to


look beyond downtown revitalization to decrease poverty in his city.
Bell talked about this plan and his
career in city politics, his beginnings
as an electrical engineer at IBM and
his experience as a black man in a
speech to UNC students.
The event, which took place
Friday evening in the Student
Union, was part of a speaker series
put on by Carolina RISE in partnership with student government.
Carolina RISE targets minority students with a goal of creating
representatives increasing student
excellence.
Bell discussed the rich AfricanAmerican heritage of Durham as a
center of business and culture. He
also spoke about his contributions to
the decision to merge the Durham

County school system and the city


school system in the early 1990s.
Bell said he has turned his focus to
creating a better Durham for future
generations.
Neighborhood by neighborhood,
year by year, he said of his plans to
improve quality of life in the city by
encouraging mixed-use and mixedincome development.
Academic advisor Dexter
Robinson helps RISE coordinate its
guest speakers.
The idea is just putting students
in a venue where folks who they
deem successful are tangible, so
they can ask questions. If they need
a mentor, once they feel like that
person is tangible, the likelihood
that they ask questions or follow up
with them seems a little more real,
and their dreams seem a little more
realistic, Robinson said.
Robinson spoke from his own
experience about the confusion that
students particularly minority
students can feel after graduating
from UNC.
When you graduate from here
in your early 20s, youre lost. Most
of your network consists of your

peers, so it can be hard for you to


get a job or get ahead because you
dont necessarily know people who
are established, so the speaker series
hopefully helps with that as well as
mentorship, Robinson said.
Junior Antonio Squire, who
serves as an executive of operations
for family matters within RISE, said
he felt the event was a success.
I want to get into local politics,
so it was amazing to be able to
talk to someone who is so widely
known someone who knows the
president and travels all around the
world and who is a local figure but
so well-known globally, he said.
Squire said the goal of RISE and
the speaker series was to show minority students what resources they have

were here so that we can make it a

With Pitch Perfect performance, Walk-Ons advance


The group placed second in
Saturdays quarterfinals at Duke.
By Madison Flager
Staff Writer

Co-ed a cappella group the UNC Walk-Ons


stood in a circle in Dey Hall 307 on Friday
night to rehearse for the last time before competing in the International Championship of
Collegiate a Cappella South quarterfinals.
Assistant music director Turner Davis led a
series of stretches and exercises. Choreographer
Kyle Conroy gave a short pump-up speech, and
they ran through the show.
We dont really go into it with the mentality to win; we just go into it to do our best and
impress the people coming there to support

us, Conroy said.


The next night, in front of a packed
auditorium at Duke University, the group
took second place, qualifying them to move
on to the ICCA South regional semifinal
next month at the University of Florida in
Gainesville along with Grains of Time, a
group from N.C. State.
I never thought (this) was going to happen
in a million years, UNC senior and WalkOns business manager Madeline Hurley said.
Were all pretty shocked.
The group has been rehearsing for this
competition all semester and sent in an audition tape in October. They competed in ICCA
for the first time in 2014.
The Walk-Ons were the only group to
compete from UNC and one of eight groups
from North Carolina and Virginia universities.

Hurley said when the group walked off the


stage, they knew they had given it their all.
It felt like the best performance we ever
did as a group, she said.
Music director and sophomore Claire
Cooper said she felt the group channeled its
nervous energy into good energy, allowing
them to be calm once they got on stage.
The group of 17 sang Sigh No More by
Mumford and Sons, a mashup of Everybody
Wants to Rule the World, and I Will Never Die
by Delta Rae.
Cooper said though the songs arent particularly well-known, the audience seemed to
like them, cheering after a solo in Sigh No
More and standing up in applause when the
performance ended.
The Walk-Ons will perform these songs again
March 21, competing against the top two groups

from each of the South quarterfinals.


Unlike its usual performances at private
events or charity functions, this one involved
dancing and a score sheet.
Its so different than the way most a cappella is, Conroy said. We have to dance, and
were not dancers, so it was a learning curve.
So many times in the arts, its just performative, and you go out and do your best, but I
like the competitive atmosphere.
For Hurley one of two seniors who has
been with the Walk-Ons since freshman year
the win is especially sweet.
Me and Sarah (Stewart) were talking about
how amazing its been to go through four years
with the group and see how its changed, she
said. Its so great to see how far weve come.

With the lack of diversity in the Oscars nominations this year, UNCs Black
Student Movements event
Friday hit a relevant note for
its attendees.
BSM gathered together to
watch the critically acclaimed
movie Dear White People
and to discuss various issues
facing the black community
at UNC.
Dear White People,
directed by Justin Simien,
is a satirical navigation of
college life with emphasis on
race relations.
The group discussed living on campus as a minority.
Most agreed that the movie
was exaggerated and even
went as far as saying that stereotyping was much worse in
high school than at UNC.
There is a lot of contro-

versy surrounding not a lot of


blacks being nominated (for
Oscars), so I felt like it was
kind of like a timely discussion, said Trey Mangum,
president of BSM.
Attendees said it was
important to show the student body that stereotypes
on television and in movies are nothing more than
entertainment.
With a lot of the events
going on dealing with institutional racism, and a lot of
things with stereotypes dealing with police and everything going on in the news,
I feel like its good to have
these events to continue our
discussions and not let (the
events) lie dormant, said

assistant for BSM.
Cipryana Mack, the cochairwoman for BSMs Black
History Month committee,
led the discussion. She said
that recent media events
inspired her to watch the
movie and discuss stereotypes
with BSM. Mack said the goal
for the event was to start a
dialogue for events that had

been weighing on many of the


group members minds.
Mack asked the group if
they felt that BSM should
reach out to other groups on
campus.
The opinion was unanimous breaking stereotypes
and starting a dialogue with
other students requires
reaching out to other groups
on campus.
It also requires introspection and understanding that
nobody is perfect, the group
said. Students agreed that it
would take a collective effort
to break through stereotypes.
Both Mangum and
McKellar said they thought
the event went exceedingly
well.
It was good that we had
a discussion following the
movie and had people talk
about it, McKellar said.
Both also spoke about the
future, hoping that the dialogue started by the movie
could improve relations
throughout campus and lead
BSM into the future.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Its absurd to think that just firing those who


directly participated in the fraud has resolved
the situation. Thats just the beginning.

Corey Buhay

ot everyone got to play


in the snow when the
ice struck Chapel Hill.
I, for one, was stranded on
the other side of the country.
Raleigh-Durham International
Airports closure left me with a
20-hour layover in Los Angeles.
As part of an admittedly rare
change in priorities, I attended
a conference in San Jose to
focus on my professional
goals, which involve working
for a magazine that lets me
wear hiking boots to work. In
an attempt to reach that goal, I
spent four days in a heavily airconditioned convention center
so expansive I could get lost
in two separate hotels without
ever having to breathe fresh air.
After that, plus a dozen hours
spent watching both people and
small birds peck around various
airports, I needed some outside
time. So I used my extensive layover to go running.
A jog in Los Angeles is like
running on a treadmill while
watching an infomercial. The
terrain is utterly flat, and the
only landmarks to differentiate
the miles are billboards and bus
stops plastered with advertisements. There is no variation.
It brought to mind a piece by
Colorado-based writer Aaron
Hirsh. In it he describes getting
distracted during a shopping
trip to Costco by little birds foraging in the aisles. He expands
from there, explaining how the
proliferation of big box stores
have led to the spread of species
that thrive in those man-made
environments. These include
not only the ubiquitous house
finch he saw in Costco and I in
the airport, but flies, raccoons,
rats and roaches.
Running through the
homogenous urban wasteland of L.A. made evident the
chain store epidemic. I passed
a McDonalds, a Carls Jr., a
Panda Express and hotels of
every brand name you could
imagine. The only wildlife I
saw along three miles of road
was a house finch.
Back in my hotel, lonely
businessmen and women sat
alone at tables set for two, eating
quietly or flicking through their
phones. A man struck up a conversation with his waiter. The
waiter was leaving for Puerto
Rico the next morning to attend
a rum festival and go adventuring with a buddy. The businessman told him Puerto Rico
was beautiful. He particularly
recommended a Marriott there.
That struck me as strange.
This guy was venturing to the
Caribbean, I assume because he
wanted to experience something
different from the culture he
was used to, and the advice he
got was to stay in a place exactly
like the one we were in.
Decisions as small as where
to stay, where to shop and what
to eat seem like the pet projects
of die-hard environmentalists. But all the little decisions
add up. We have urban sprawl
because we like sprawling
stores like Target and Costco.
Rare, exotic-looking species are
dying out in the U.S. because,
when their unvaried competitors move in with suburbia,
those competitors take over
huge swathes of habitat.
Do you like wilderness?
Do you like seeing animals
other than rats, flies and house
finches when you got outside?
Be conscious of how you affect
that situation. Shop local.
Drive your car less. Maybe
dont stay in a Marriott.

EDITORIAL

Uncivil censorship
The Center for Civil
Rights requires
autonomy.

ast week, the decision by a Board of


Governors working
group to recommend
the closing of the UNC
Center on Poverty, Work
and Opportunity attracted
national attention for the
blatantly partisan nature
of the act.
Board member Steven
Longs recommendation to
strip the UNC Center for
Civil Rights of the independence the center needs
to be effective attracted
slightly less notice.
Long criticized the center

for participating in lawsuits


against the state, counties
and municipalities.
Long, who once served
on the board of directors of
Civitas Action, a conservative advocacy group, has
accused the center of being
a partisan organization.
Long does not appear to
understand the nature of
civil rights law, the value
of training new generations of civil rights lawyers
or the possibility that
institutions of the state are
perfectly capable of violating a persons civil rights.
The Center for Civil
Rights has a legitimate
place at this university and
performs essential acts of
public service for the peo-

ple of North Carolina. To


do so, the center requires
the ability to perform its
most essential mission:
litigating violators of individuals civil rights, whoever they are.
Long should not get
into the business of telling
experts in civil rights law
how to practice their professions. UNC must ignore
Longs directions, even
if that means risking the
centers existence.
If the Board of
Governors takes its mission of serving the people
of North Carolina seriously, it will halt its efforts to
interfere with the ability
of civil rights lawyers to do
their jobs.

EDITORIAL

An opportunity to lead
Houston Summers
must take a stand
for student voices.

NCs student
body has just
elected Houston
Summers as its newest
student body president.
After last weeks controversial Board of Governors
decisions, Summers is in
a unique position to further the causes of student
activists.
The events of this recent
SBP election have contributed to a disillusion with
student government felt
by many students.

Even saying that the


election results are indicative of the student bodys
preference is in itself controversial fewer than
four thousand students
participated in the election,
less than 17 percent of the
student body.
Regardless, Summers
and his administration
will soon be in charge of
representing students to
the Board of Governors
at a time when we need
responsible leadership.
Students should expect
strong action from student government as UNC
navigates the fiasco of
punitive actions against

academic centers.
Students do not want
to be incorporate(d) in
the conversation as
Summers remarked following his victory or
treated to other meaningless rhetoric, and the challenges of the present situation offer student government an opportunity for
meaningful leadership.
Rather than adopting the
passive style too often seen
from the current administration, UNC would be
best served by a leader who
embodies the voice of the
student body to the administration and the BOG
not the other way around.

TO THE EDITOR:
At the Feb. 18 meeting of the UNC Board of
Governors working group
on centers and institutes,
Steven Long claimed that
the Center for Civil Rights
at UNC-Chapel Hill is not
an academic center. As students at UNC law school,
we experience firsthand the
centers involvement in academics. The center offers
continuing legal education
(CLE) for faculty, students,
and practitioners. The center produces scholarship;
one example, the Inclusion
Project, documents and
analyzes residential segregation in communities
across North Carolina.
The center organizes
annual conferences on
civil rights issues and
community-based lawyering. Staff members teach
courses at the law school
and have students gain
practical experience in civil
rights law through internships, pro bono projects
and events. These experiences complement and
enhance what students
learn in the classroom.
The center is one of the
best ways for first- and
second-year students (who
cannot participate in the
law schools clinics) to get
hands-on experience. We
cannot learn to be effective
lawyers without having the
opportunity to work with
individuals and communities that need access to the
legal system.
Those of us and there
are many who pursue
public interest law are
attracted to the UNC law
school not only because of
excellent faculty and classes
but because of the education and training we will
receive at the Center for
Civil Rights. Perhaps the
working group of the current Board of Governors is
not interested in students
and future lawyers
like us.

Duke. But it can be better


than what we have now.
Duke has the Cameron
Crazies, who stand from
tip-off until the final buzzer
packed tighter than sardines
while not smelling much
better. Every layup elicits
eardrum-shattering banshee
cries, while 3-pointers and
dunks make you question how
a 747 snuck in behind you.
UNC has the wine-andcheese crowd, who stand only
for the national anthem, dont
fill their seats completely until
a few minutes have ticked off
the clock and cant always be
bothered to wear UNC gear,
let alone face paint.
Making the lower bowl
seats opposite the benches a
student section would leave
plenty of prime real estate
for the big spenders and put
the loudest fans closest to
the court. But for now, I offer
another plea through the
voice of Roy:
Come in and invest.
Show up with your lungs
rested on Tuesday night.
Yes, thats intended to be a
challenge.

TO THE EDITOR:
UNC is under stress.
Stress from the Board of
Governors and the legislature, from lawsuits
and the fallout from the
Wainstein report, and
from the complex history
and long-standing problems of our institution
itself. On Thursday, the
editorial board articulated
its concern that the chancellor was doing an insufficient job as leader of this
university by not explicitly
articulating and executing
bold positions on the contentious issues of today.
While reasonable people
can disagree about how
publicly vocal the chancel-

lor should be, to say she is


not standing up for what
this university believes
in is false. As the editorial board acknowledges,
the chancellor has made
public statements on the
importance of inclusive
campuses and affordability
and meeting 100 percent
of demonstrated need.
The editorial boards claim
is that these statements
mean little when they are
not paired with the bold
action required to make
them realities.
The question to ask is
what bold action means.
It would not be appropriate, nor would it be effective, for the chancellor to
take political positions on
these issues. But she is able
to influence the dialogue by
being pragmatic, respectful
and informative. And that
is what she has done.
On need-based aid, the
chancellor has directed her
administration to raise the
money thats needed to fill
the gap in funding that will
come as a result of the BOGs
cap-and-freeze policy.
On the academic-athletic
scandal, the chancellor
has led the administration
in overhauling admissions policies for athletes,
reformed the academic
advising program for athletes and implemented
more than 70 reforms on all
things athletic at UNC.
And on centers and
institutes, the chancellor
mobilized her cabinet to
make an extraordinarily
compelling presentation
at the BOG, successfully
defending the vast majority of centers against a
legislative mandate to
cut up to $15 million dollars. While the end result
is still hard to swallow,
the administrations hard
work saved the vast majority of UNCs centers and
institutes, including the
Womens Center, the Stone
Center and the Center for
Civil Rights.
Its important to demand
the highest level of performance from our administration. But from the experience of the past year, it certainly seems the chancellor
is following up on her public
statements with outcomeoriented action.

Clef Hangers tribute

A note of thanks to the
Clef Hangers for their rendition of Amazing Grace
in honor of Coach Smith.
In a ceremony of many
moving tributes, I thought
it was the best simple
but powerful beyond
words. While I wasnt
privileged to be there in

on television, I was moved

be proud of our University

for the entire Carolina family in relaying our gratitude
for your gift to all of us.

The Eno River Association


(ERA) teamed up with a
West-African-influenced
dance band, Diali Cissokho
& Kaira Ba, to provide tropical beats for the Eno River
Winter Dance Party at the
Carrboro ArtsCenter on
Saturday night.
Greg Bell, the ERAs festival director, said the event
earned about $4,500 toward a
total goal of $107,000, which
will cover repairs to the associations office space and surrounding environment after a
sewage leak flooded the building in January.
The $4,500 we raised at
the ArtsCenter brings us that
much closer to this goal, but
moreover helps build community, raise spirits and raise
additional donations due
to the publicity this event
engendered, Bell said.
Cissokho, a native of
Senegal, plays the kora, a West
African string instrument, and
headlines vocals. The group
produces a sound thats a mix
of West African traditional,
funk, rock, blues and jazz.
Percussionist Will Ridenour
said Kaira Bas music focuses
on the kora.
What we do is we take
a traditional way of playing
melodies and percussion, but
we sort of develop them in
a modern, sort of American,
way, he said.
Ridenour said Kaira Ba is
familiar with the ERA and has
played the festival for the Eno

there are people in the band
that feel really strongly about
supporting environmental
justice causes, especially local
ones, so this is the perfect
opportunity to support that
type of activism thats happening in our own backyard,
he said.
Bell said the group chose
Cissokho & Kaira Ba to play
the dance party partially for
weather-related reasons.
We knew that we wanted a
dance band, and we knew that
we wanted something to offset
the cold, so we thought something sort of tropical would be
a good mix, Bell said.
The dance party hosted
about 300 people, he said.
We had no idea what to
expect, having never done an
event of this nature and were
very excited to draw such a
large and energetic crowd.
Party attendee Katie Grice,
from Saxapahaw, said the show
was a positive experience.

The musicians were


incredible, no one could help
but dance, and you could feel
the love radiating out from
the stage, Grice said.
Bell said the dance party
felt like a fitting way to raise
money for the flood damage.
Its quite ironic that one
of the oldest environmental
organizations in the state
focusing on clean water had
been forced from its offices by
the municipal sewage spill,
Bell said. So thats where this
party idea came from literally we were covered in shit,
thinking, This sucks and its
going to suck for a while, and
we need to have a party.
He recognized that the
dance party, alone, would not
accomplish the ERAs entire
fundraising goal.
Were not going to raise
that kind of money with
a party, but every little bit
helps, Bell said.

the specifics of Superfish
software implementation,
attackers may be able to create a website that imitates or
masquerades as another secure
website, and computers that
have Superfish installed might
fail to identify such imitation
websites as forgeries.
Lenovo has asked all computer owners to uninstall the
software. Lanning said the
software could be uninstalled
by following instructions on
Lenovos website or by calling
ITSs help number.
David Eckert, dispatch
service manager for ITS, said
in an email the software was
not installed on Carolina
Computing Initiative models
because they come with a
custom-built UNC software
preload that has never included
Superfish or a similar software.
Eckert said the Think

common model purchased
by UNC faculty, staff and
students, were not affected,
according to Lenovo.
Ray Gorman, a spokesman
for Lenovo, said in an email
there was no evidence that
Superfish corrupted any data,
but the company recognized
there were potential security
issues with the software. As
of January, Gorman said they
had stopped pre-loading the
software on computers.
But Winston Howes, a
UNC senior known for creating ConnectCarolina 2.0 in

have been security breaches.

He said the reason some
attackers might not have taken
advantage is because they were
unaware of the vulnerability.
Howes said Lenovos software is dangerous because
when its installed, it creates its
own root certificate which
is rare and allows an attacker
using the same Wi-Fi to intercept any communication a
computer user is having online.
Attackers could start by
viewing online banking interactions and communication,
but then could interject malicious code, Howes said.

his 36-year tenure at the helm
of UNCs program are still
ingrained in them today.
I have four kids of my own,
and the things that I preach

Chase LaRue, an admissions representative, said
the office is in the middle of

A history of protests
General Services
Corporation stopped accepting the Section 8 vouchers
from residents in 2013.
In October, Hollister
brought a petition before the
Carrboro Board of Aldermen
with more than 100 signatures from residents protesting the water bill rates. It also
addressed GSCs use of an
out-of-state utilities company.
Monitoring usage from
Florida hampers communication about bills between the
company, GSC and tenants,
and is especially tough to
navigate for those who speak
English as a second language,
Hollister said.

Inexplicably expensive
GSCs Estes Park property
is home to many refugees
from Myanmar, many of
whom only speak broken
English, Hollister said.
About 10 of the refugees
were present to protest the
high water bills.
Other residents, such as
Judy Callahan, a tenant of
Carolina Apartments, also
turned out for the protest to
challenge the steadily increasing and inexplicably high
water bills.
Callahan said she consistently receives water bills
of more than $60, though
she does not own a washing
machine and uses her dishwasher only twice weekly.
The highest bill she received
totaled more than $190
when she complained, she was
told that it was her responsibility to call and sort it out.
I said, Call who? I dont
even know who you are! she
said.
Marc Bennett, a resident
of the Chapel Hill apartment
complex Kingswood, another
GSC property, described the
billing practices as arbitrary.
I suspect that they are
aggregating, meaning that
they are looking at usage and
dividing by the number of
residents, he said.
Its not, How much water
am I using? thats not
whats reflected on my bill.
Bennett also described his
most recent run-in with GSC
management. For the past six
months, his sinks have backed
up with sewage water. After
GSC repeatedly ignored his
complaints, he called the town.
Once Kingswood found out
that I alerted the city, they ran
out here, he said. They know
theyre wrong, but this has
been going on a long time.

Catalyst brings 92 high school students to campus


By Shuyan Huang
Staff Writer

A UNC group invited 92


high school seniors to campus
this week and challenged
them to cross the line.
More than 100 people
attended a banquet for a
closing celebration of the
UNC Catalyst Conference,
which was held Friday, Feb.
20 through Sunday, Feb. 22.
The conference gathers North
Carolina high school students
and teaches them about social
justice.

Co-chairwomen Adeola
Keku and Mattie Burroughs
said the UNC Catalyst group
has held the conference for
more than a decade. Both of
them have been involved in
the organization since they
were sophomores.
I did a program like this in
high school, Burroughs said. I
looked forward to something
similar to get involved in. And
Catalyst is the one that fit in.
Keku said she thinks
Catalyst gives people a chance
to open up and know more
about one another.

Seeing how students can


open up and share their stories
is just remarkable, Keku said.
Keku also said that her
favorite part of the conference
is the game crossing lines,
because it allows students to
know more about one another. In crossing lines, students
are asked to step forward
when a statement is read that
applies to them.
Crossing lines changed the
whole dynamic of Catalyst,
Keku said. You really get to
know what peoples stories are
and what their background is. I

really like hearing peoples stories and getting to know who


they really are.
The members of UNC
Catalyst have prepared for the
conference for a long time.
We spent all year planning for it. Last semester we
met every other weekend or
every other week, Michelle
Nguyen, the entertainment
co-chairwoman of UNC
Catalyst, said.
This year, 65 counselors
and 92 participants attended
the conference.
High school participant

Hilda Kolawole talked about


her reasons for attending the
conference.
Im here because Im a
feminist, Kolawole said.
I think its important to
encourage young girls to
know who they are.
Maria Peralta Porras, a high
school student from Chapel
Hill, said the event empowered her to spread her story.
It gave me more empowerment to go back to my community and to be willing to
spread out and talk about my
experiences, mainly because

Im an undocumented
Hispanic student in Chapel
Hill, Porras said.
The students also heard an
encouraging speech by Taffye
Clayton, the associate vice
chancellor of diversity and
multicultural affairs at UNC.
Even if youre not quite
sure yet what your purpose is,
clarity of purpose will come,
Clayton said. Be thoughtful,
and reflect about what inspires
you. Be open to new ways of
thinking, being and doing.

New vaccine could mean cure for 35 million living with HIV
Yoon Ju Chung
Staff Writer

For decades, there has been


a relentless effort among scientists to eradicate HIV and
AIDS but a new discovery
might finally mean a cure.
The Scripps Research
Institute on Wednesday
published details about the
potential drug, touted as a vaccine alternative. Dr. Michael
Farzan, a professor of infectious diseases at TSRIs Florida
campus, said he expects his
new drug candidate could cure

the 35 million people living


with HIV worldwide within
the next few years.
Most people looking
at data will appreciate the
potential of a new drug candidate, Farzan said.
This discovery is the culmination of scientists continuous
work on the biochemistry of
how HIV enters cells, he said.
An estimated 39 million
people have died worldwide
from HIV-related causes,
and while treatments have
improved, a cure has remained
elusive for decades.

Farzan said this new study


was based on his previous discovery of a co-receptor the
part of a cell that HIV binds
to which produces a protein
that hinders the entry of the
virus into the cells. He said his
team developed a drug based
on that protein that can help
prevent infection.
They also created a way to
inject the drug into muscle
tissue and allow the body to
produce the new protective
protein for years. Farzan is
expecting the widespread use
of gene therapy to help treat a

number of conditions in addition to HIV and AIDS.


But Dr. David Margolis, a
UNC professor of medicine
and leader of the Collaboratory
of AIDS Researchers for
Eradication, cast doubt on
several of the studys findings:
whether it will be as effective for humans as it was for
monkeys, whether the protection will last long enough and
whether human cells will react
abnormally to the proteins.
Margolis cited an example
from UNCs Gene Therapy
Center, where researchers are

studying treatments based on


similar methods of transmitting protective proteins.
This is not novel and
has been tried in the lab for
decades, he said.
The monkeys used in the
clinical test were completely
protected from extremely high
doses of viruses. Still, Farzan
acknowledged that a substantial amount of time would be
needed to conduct human trials of his drug.
Everybody, including ourselves, wants to be sure that it
is very safe, Farzan said.

Margolis said the issue is


whether these types of treatments can successfully be used
to treat humans.
I dont know if it can be put
into human trials even, but I
hope it becomes successful, he
added.
Farzan said he is working
on ensuring the safety of his
new drug.
I have a goal to initiate very
basic and very safe human
trials of protein alone in early
2016, he said.

Hatchell said our energy level

thats when we really shifted

stand. They soon made it their


turn to bring the heat.
We got out of sorts a bit,
and they took advantage of it,
said Coach Joe Breschi.
But guys got to make plays
at the end of the day, and
Sankey, Bitter and Goldstock
did.
By halftime, UNC had a 7-3
lead, but it took about seven
minutes into the third quarter
for Johns Hopkins to crush
that lead to one.
Two rapid goals by
Goldstock, who finished with
a hat trick, and another Bitter
goal his 103rd, which put
him at seventh on UNCs alltime list put UNC up four.
Lacrosse is a game of
runs, Bitter said. We get six
goals, theyre going to end up

notched 11 steals.
Helping UNC offensively
was a balanced scoring attack.
Four starters finished in double digits, with sophomore
guard Allisha Gray leading
the team with 15 points.
Gray has now scored in double digits in 23 straight games
and 27 out of the past 28. She
said she never feels pressure to
score, but enjoyed seeing the
balanced attack against Miami.
When four starters can
get double digits, it means the
team was on point, Gray said.
The matchup also had

important ACC tournament


implications. Before the
game, UNC and Miami were
tied for sixth place in the ACC
standings. The top four teams
receive a double bye in the
conference tournament.
So to Mavunga, the win was
more than just a road victory.
Miami is a good team
and not to be taken lightly.
Theyve beaten some good
teams, including Notre Dame,
Mavunga said. This was a win
that we really needed.

getting four, so you have to


deal with adversity, especially
on offense. You just have to be
patient, so we just had to slow
it down and play our offense.
And they did.
With strong shooting, six
Tar Heels notched at least one
goal, with the starting attackmen scoring at least three
each for the third time in four
games.
Six Tar Heels also had at
least one assist, with Sankey,
leading the way with three.
His 102 career goals are
good for a tie for eighth place
on the all-time list, right
behind Bitter.
But if anything was just as
important as scoring goals, it
was the UNC defenses ability
to stop the Blue Jays runs.
We just told everyone
to calm down, said senior
defenseman Jake Bailey. We

knew they werent going to


score on us 6-on-6, and we
just needed to settle down.
Were a tight-knit group, and
we have a lot of confidence
going into every game.
Though Johns Hopkins
had a small advantage in some
statistical categories, including
ground balls and shots, it was
the Tar Heels quick hands and
heavy defense that led them
to victory and solidified their
position as a top-five team.
And it will be just as important to bring that heat to their
next match Friday against the
University of Denver Pioneers.
We made some simple
mistakes, Breschi said. But I
think that was kind of a good
test for us to prepare us to
play against the No. 1 team in
the country.

about it, said Tokoto in the
players lounge after the game.
You say Four Corners and
you can kind of depict what it
means But you know, theres
a little history behind it and
that was pretty cool to be able
to go out there and run it.
So Paige drove in toward
his defender and picked up his
dribble just like he was supposed to do. He panicked a bit
with the ball just like he was
supposed to do. And then he
found a cutting Brice Johnson
for a backdoor layup just
like he was supposed to do.
The Four Corners offense
worked for the Tar Heels, just
like it worked many years
ago for Dean Smith. A simple
play; according to the players, they only practiced it for
about five minutes. In this
moment, the play lasted just
a few seconds. Some people
in the stands likely missed it
entirely. But that was fine.
I wanted it to be something from my team to Coach
Smith, Williams said. And
that worked out great.

Big innings haunt UNC baseball


Staff Writer

With a sheet of ice and


snow, the aftermath of the
previous weeks winter storm,
blanketing Boshamer Stadium
in Chapel Hill, the No. 13
North Carolina baseball team
shifted venues to Jay Bergman
Field in Orlando and shifted
focus to a Top-10 opponent in
the No. 7 UCLA Bruins.
Under warmer conditions
and pressure from a red-hot
Bruin (6-1) side, the Tar Heels
(4-2) fell victim to something
Coach Mike Fox had been
stressing the importance of
since the fall the big inning.
The phenomenon, which
in Foxs dictionary refers to an
inning where one team scores
three or more runs, occurred
numerous times during the
weekend and caused UNC to
drop two of the series three
games (5-8, 9-6 and 4-12).
Thats the way it is in baseball, Fox said. If you prevent
the big inning, you stay in the
game and if you have one, you
have a good chance to win. We
gave up a few this weekend
and that cost us.
Fridays action began with
promise for UNC, as sophomore Tyler Ramirez and junior
Skye Bolt both went deep in
consecutive innings, the latter
shot by Bolt tying the score 2-2
in the bottom of the third.
But as the game wore on,
the Bruins began to work
through the North Carolina
pitching staff and in the sixth
inning the wheels fell off. After
a walk and two singles loaded
the bases, a wild pitch from
sophomore Spencer Trayner,
a passed ball and an error
allowed the Bruins to plate
three runs.
It definitely was frustrating, but we were playing on
an entirely new field, said
sophomore Wood Myers
about the defensive miscues.
The big inning struck, and it
propelled UCLA to a three-run
lead and an eventual 8-5 win.
It takes any momentum
you have and just flips it,
Myers said.
The beginning of Saturdays
game started much differently
for the Tar Heels, who rode
the powerful pitching of righty
Trent Thornton to a 3-0 lead.
But in the top of the sixth,
the Bruins tallied four runs,

and it looked like once again


UCLA would pull away. Brian
Miller and Landon Lassiter
had other ideas, however, as an
RBI double and a sacrifice fly,
respectively, gave UNC a lead
it wouldnt relinquish, evening
the series with a 9-6 win.
Coming off Saturdays win,
the Tar Heels looked poised to
capture the rubber-match of
the series on Sunday, but after
a trio of big innings from the
Bruins, all UNC could do was
lick its wounds, falling 12-4.

The big inning might have


haunted the Tar Heels this
weekend, but they did gain
a valuable bit of experience:
Sometimes you need to face
the big inning in order to
learn how to prevent it.
Its the only way to get
experience, Fox said. You
learn through playing and
you learn through failure, and
we have a lot to take away
from this weekend.

FOUR CORNERS, ONE TRIBUTE

UNC honored Dean

trademark offense

Assistant Sports Editor

Freshman Jamie Cherry


iced the game for UNC
with two free throws.
By Ben Coley
Staff Writer

In three of the past four meetings between the No. 17 North


Carolina womens basketball team
and Miami, the game has been
decided by fewer than three points.
That statistic changed to four
out of the past five on Sunday in
Coral Gables.
Miami (18-9, 8-6 ACC) had the
ball with UNC (22-6, 9-5 ACC) up
64-62 and seven seconds left. The
Tar Heel defense forced a crosscourt pass that landed in the hands
of a Miami player, but her foot was
out of bounds UNC ball.
Miami quickly fouled, but freshman guard Jamie Cherry calmly
buried both free throws to seal the
game. The Tar Heels ended up
winning 66-65, despite a buzzer
beater by Miami to end the game.
(Miami) plays hard. Theyre
athletic and they throw a lot of
different things out there, Coach
Sylvia Hatchell said. Two years
ago we made a shot at the buzzer
to win it down here. We always
have great games with them.
UNC knew Miami would be
a stiff test entering the game,
the Hurricanes hadnt lost an
ACC home game and were 15-1
overall on their court this season.
It was a battle for both teams.
Miami was nursing a one-point
lead at halftime and neither team
led by more than eight points.
But a jumper by sophomore
forward Stephanie Mavunga at
the 16:49 mark put the Tar Heels
up 39-38 and helped start a 6-0
run. The lead never changed
hands after that point.
Mavunga said the team played

FENCING: GILL LITYNSKI, 1ST PLACE

Fencer Gill Litynski claims ACC title

This year was the inaugural ACC


Womens Fencing Championships.
By C Jackson Cowart
Staff Writer

The only thing louder than Gillian Litynskis


victory screams were the standing ovations from
the home crowd on Sunday.
In the inaugural ACC Womens Fencing
Championships, the top-seeded Litynski put on a
show for the North Carolina faithful, claiming the
first-ever womens sabre title in Carmichael Arena.
Its just overwhelming, said the senior sabreist, who was flooded with warm embraces and
camera flashes following the win. You cant see
straight. Everyones everywhere.
The support for the UNC co-captain was evident her friends, professors and parents were
in attendance as the crowd openly applauded
for all 30 touches of her final two bouts.
It was loud, which is good, and it was loud
on my side, which is great, said Litynski, with
a humble smile drawn across her face. Having
crowd support really helps.
The champion channeled the arenas energy into
an impressive closing performance, putting away
her final opponent 15-6 in a dominating fashion.
And even after falling behind 8-6 in the semifinal a bout in which she rallied to a 15-11 victory no supporter doubted the ultimate result.
Im not surprised that she won, said sophomore foil captain Amanda Lalezarian. Shes a
great fencer and she works really hard, so she
definitely deserves to win.
It seems the only Tar Heel who questioned the
championship victory was Litynski herself.
I cant go into a fencing competition and say
definitively, Oh, I got this, Im gonna win, she

Roy Williams stood and held up four


fingers.
And as the North Carolina mens basketball coach looked out across the court
of the Smith Center, so did Marcus Paige.
The junior point guard took the ball
across the middle of the North Carolina
logo and the rest of the team followed
suit, fading into each corner of the half
court the Four Corners to be specific.
It was one more tribute to the man
whos name is etched on the building the
No. 15 Tar Heels call home, in their first
game back in Chapel Hill since Coach
Dean Smith passed away February 7.
Its something Ive been thinking
about for a long time, said Williams after
his teams dominating 89-60 win over
Georgia Tech. Some way to do something that would mean a great deal to
him, that would mean a great deal to me.
After the Tar Heels (19-8, 9-5 ACC)
basketball team finished looking over
film of the Yellow Jackets (12-15, 3-12
ACC), Williams went over his plan.
He drew it up on the whiteboard and
the four people in the corners and the
guy in the middle and said that this was
gonna be the last way we were gonna
honor Coach Smith, said Paige, who finished with 13 points and 10 assists.
So there was Marcus Paige, running
the play Smith had used decades before,
wearing a throwback jersey in remembrance of the days when Smith walked
up and down the sidelines of the court.
Our first offensive possession,
man or zone, we were gonna go Four
Corners and hold it, Paige said.
To Paiges left there was Justin
Jackson, a freshman familiar with the
Four Corners offense, even if he wasnt
so familiar with the man who created it.
I didnt know him personally,
Jackson said. But growing up a North
Carolina fan and now being here, the legacy hes left here with Coach (Williams),
Coach Davis played for him Just being
around those guys and learning what
kind of man Coach Smith was definitely
affected me.
To Paiges right there was J.P. Tokoto,

said. You just need to take everything one touch


at a time.
Litynski certainly did that. After finishing
with a 5-1 record in the dual meets, she snagged
the top spot in the finals with a 13-2 mark in the
individual bouts.
I didnt have any doubts, said Coach Ron
Miller with a hearty chuckle. She might have
had a few more than I did. But she tends to have
a quiet kind of confidence that doesnt always
show. Shes not overt in anything that she does.
Shes a quiet killer, what can I say?

The day belonged to the modest victor, who


will forever be penned as the first womens sabre
champion in ACC history.
Its gotta be amazing, Miller said. Even
when fencing was in the ACC before, it was only
a mens sport. We had a womens championship,
but it was not official. So the women never got
awards or anything else.
To have that first medal Im sure will mean a
lot the rest of her life.

Under overcast skies and 33-degree


weather, the bundled crowd at Navy
Field on Saturday was cold. But the
No. 4 North Carolina mens lacrosse
teams attack certainly wasnt.
Hot shooting and scalding defense
helped the Tar Heels overcome scoring runs by the opposition en route to
their first Top-10 win of the year. After
knocking off No. 9 Johns Hopkins,
13-11, UNC is now 4-0 on the season.
The Tar Heels, with contributions
from senior attackmen Jimmy Bitter
and Joey Sankey whose goals gave
them 100 career goals each as well
as from sophomore Luke Goldstock
and redshirt sophomore Michael
Tagliaferri, gave UNC a four-goal lead
in the first half.
But the Blue Jays wouldnt let that
