Chapel Hill Police responds to reports of a dead body found at 300 E. Rosemary St. Witnesses at the scene said the person did not appear to be a UNC student. Police do not suspect foul play in the case.
Police are investigating a dead body found at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church

Chapel Hill police are
investigating a dead body
found Tuesday afternoon in
the parking lot of Lutheran
Campus Ministries on
Rosemary Street.
Police do not suspect
foul play, but the investiga-
tion is ongoing, according
to a press release from the
department.
According to an email
sent to the Lutheran
Campus Ministries listserv
from Blair Flent, president
of the ministry, the deceased
person was not a member of
the ministry or the associ-
ated Holy Trinity Lutheran
Church. The statement
also said the person did not
appear to be a UNC student.
Police said the person was
a man but have not released
any additional identifying
information about him.
Witnesses at the scene
said the body was discovered
between a dumpster in the
parking lot of the church and
a fence separating the park-
ing lot from Sigma Sigma
Sigma sorority house. The
Sigma Sigma Sigma soror-
ity house is located at 307
E. Franklin St. and its back
fence is adjacent to the Holy
Trinity Lutheran Church.
Cops keep walking
back and forth along this
path from the back of the
house to the dumpster, said
MacKinsey Cole, a UNC
sophomore who lives near the
crime scene.
Its a really big shock to
the Chapel Hill community,
said Sigma Sigma Sigma
sorority president Emily Bell.
Our thoughts and prayers
are with the family.
Sigma Sigma Sigmas
house mother, Gail Miller,
said she saw the body from
her apartment window.
What I noticed first from
my window was that one side
was open on the dumpster,
which was unusual, said
Miller. When I looked out
the window all I could see
was a man lying there and it
looked like salt and pepper
hair. He was face down.
Miller said the sorority
house does have some secu-
rity cameras, but none facing
the church parking lot.
I can bet you (cameras
facing that direction will) be
here by the time the girls come
back next week, she said.
Police closed Rosemary
Street between Pickard Lane
and Hillsborough Street for
several hours Tuesday evening.
No additional information
had been released by police
late Tuesday.
Anyone with information
should call Crime Stoppers at
919-942-7515.

Tensions persist
in Ferguson
By Jaclyn Lee
Staff Writer
FERGUSON, MO. Though unarmed
18-year-old Michael Brown was shot and killed
more than two months ago, tempers continue to
flare between police and protesters in Ferguson,
Mo. with tensions as strong as ever.
A weekend of resistance called Ferguson
October took place Oct. 10-13 with thousands
of protesters taking to the streets, marching and
demanding justice for Browns death.
United arm in arm, protesters of all ages and
ethnicities chanted together as they marched in
downtown St. Louis toward the citys famous arch.
Buses arrived and dropped off hoards of people
decked out in shirts saying not one more and
wielding signs stating that black lives matter.
Hailing from Brooklyn, N.Y., Justin Myles trav-
eled more than 950 miles to fight for what he said
is a war for equality. Taking part in protests day and
night, he said he was surprised by police behavior.
They were beating their batons against their
shields, he said. Its kind of very 300-ish, and it
just seemed to be more like a war readiness than
it was, Lets make sure that these protesters are
doing what they need to do to peacefully protest.
Racial tensions in the area have come to a boil
in the aftermath of Browns shooting. Two-thirds of
Ferguson residents are black, and only three of the
citys 53 police officers are black. Citizens say they
are tired of police brutality against minorities.
Ferguson October, a resistance
movement, was held this weekend.

UNC acceptance rate declines
By Acy Jackson
Staff Writer
Today is the early action dead-
line for UNC, and thousands of
high school seniors will send in
their applications in order to be
considered for early acceptance.
College applications have
become infamous for the
amount of stress they cause
students, and to mark this years
early action deadline, The Daily
Tar Heel looked at the history of
the Universitys applications.
Dr. Julian Albergotti, who
applied to UNC in 1948, said
when he applied, an acceptance
from UNC was expected.
Most everybody that applied
got in, Albergotti said.
Gair McCullough, who
applied to UNC in 1979, said she

application and putting it in her
typewriter, struggling to fit her

As part of a process of
restructuring University depart-
ments, the Department of
Public Safety will no longer
oversee the Transportation and
Parking Services divisions.
Both divisions are now a part
of UNC Auxiliary Services.
Matt Fajack, vice chancellor
for finance and administra-
tion, said the divisions were
transferred to Auxiliary Services
because of the departments
expertise in budgetary planning.
He said this change is due to
a larger restructuring of depart-
ments that he and other vice
chancellors started in June.
He said Auxiliary Services is
better suited to manage parking
because it is more equipped to
deal with its budget, which is
managed internally.
Fajack said DPS provides
safety services to campus and is
funded through the state, while
the Parking and Transportation
divisions receive revenue from
customers by way of parking
fees and passes.
Parking isnt really a safety
issue, Fajack said. Auxiliary has
the infrastructure to manage a
break-even operation.
Fajack said Parking Services
will still be responsible for its
budget and he doesnt think
the separation will have a big
impact on finances in the future.
(It is) a change from safety-
focused management to those
who are more experienced in
managing their own budgets ... a
change of focus from one man-
agement expertise to another,
Fajack said.
DPS spokesman Randy Young
said DPS will still be in charge of
issuing parking tickets.
Fajack said the new night-
parking policy has nothing to
do with the separation of the
departments.
He said the next big step in
the departmental reorganization
will be a change in leadership
of some departments, but there
will be no big changes to the
departments services.
Chris Payne, associate vice
chancellor for student affairs,
Applicant volume has
made it more difficult
to get in to UNC.
The Department of
Public Safety no longer
oversees parking.

from joining forces with any sandwich restaurant it deems a competitor,
for up to two years after working at Jimmy Johns. Whats confusing,
though, is that any eatery within 3 miles of a Jimmy Johns that derives at

tor. Who knew a store that derives so much of its revenue from inebri-
ated college students would have such stringent standards?

Photos and articles commemorating business leader Maurice Julian (right) and his family hang on the back wall in Julians on Franklin Steet.
By Meg Garner
Staff Writer
The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of
Commerce will induct six business leaders
and families into its Hall of Fame on Nov.
13. The Daily Tar Heel will feature each of
its inductees. Maurice and Mary Julian
will be among those inducted.
When they met, he was a young Jewish
boy from Massachusetts living in the
southern part of heaven, and she was a
Southern Baptist, Tar Heel born and bred.
Maurice and Mary Julian were never
meant to be together, but they overcame
the odds and their families disapproval to
create their own legacy in a town that is
thanking them 72 years later.
On Nov. 13, the Julians will be inducted
into the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Business
Hall of Fame in recognition of their life-
long dedication not only to business but
also to Chapel Hill.
The Julians, we felt like, really set the
standard for retail in Chapel Hill and
on Franklin Street, said Bob Woodruff,
chairman of the selection committee.
I mean, Maurice was this great rags to
riches story.
Maurice Julian came to Chapel Hill
in 1934 for an affordable education and
never left. But getting by was not the
easiest feat for a young man who grew
up with very little.
There were no scholarships of any
kind, and he literally started work when
he was 5, so he had a thousand jobs just
to scrape together enough to keep paying
for school the next time, said Missy Julian
Fox, the couples daughter. So we think of
dad as a serial entrepreneur.
Fox said her father would sell anything
he could, from corsages to programs
at football games. He and his brother,
Milton, opened a Chapel Hill bicycle shop,
which also doubled as a place to get a ten-
nis racket restrung.
The turning point event was in 1942.
The Navy used our campus as a pre-flight
training school, so dad said overnight
there were 5,000 new men in town, and
when they checked in they were given a
piece of paper. It had all the supplies that
they needed and you came to Franklin
Street to find it, Fox said. He said, I
could do that.
He opened Julians at 140 E. Franklin
St., the space now occupied by Sugarland,
in the hopes of supplying the men with
everything they would need for their time
in Chapel Hill.
Maurice quickly established himself as
a premiere arbiter of taste in Chapel Hill,
and Julians thrived.
Maurice had incredible taste, just
incredible taste, said Maria Villanueva,
a longtime family friend and Julians
employee. He could look at you and just
know what was going to look good on you.
He was a trendsetter here in this area.
After eloping with Mary in 1947,
Maurice tried diligently to get his bride to
join his business. The new Mrs. Julian very
reluctantly accepted.
They were both very independent, but
just this sort of yin and yang, Fox said.
Knowing that mom said, Not on your
life, and the fact that she ate those words
and came into the business she was
always just my mom helping dad, but it
wouldnt have been successful without her.
Fox recalled coming into the store
after school and watching her mother
label and send off thousands of bills to
the parents of students who had charged
their purchases.
She was the keeper of the cash register,

A recent decision by the Watauga County
Board of Elections to move an early voting site
located on Appalachian State Universitys campus
was overturned Monday.
Wake County Superior Court Chief Judge Donald
W. Stephens declared the early voting plan unconsti-
tutional, on the grounds that the move represented a
significant infringement of students rights to vote.
He mandated that the state Board of Elections
revise the plan to include an early voting site on
campus for the midterm election. Early voting
starts Oct. 23. The board can either accept the deci-
sion or appeal to a higher court.
In August, the board upheld the plan, rejecting
an appeal by Kathleen Campbell, a Watauga Board
of Elections member who opposed the voting site
move. But a group of Watauga County residents and
students appealed that decision.
Ian OKeefe, a senior at ASU and one of the
plaintiffs in the lawsuit, said for him, the issue is
not just about student voters.
I think this is partially about students, but I
think the reason why were fighting is for voting
rights in general, he said.
OKeefe is one of seven plaintiffs five students
and two community members in the lawsuit. He
said he believes the attempt to move the voting site off
campus is a way for politicians in Watauga County to
try to discourage young people from voting.
Pam Williamson, another plaintiff in the lawsuit,
said she became involved in the conflict in early
spring 2013, when a group of residents formed the
Watauga County Voting Task Force, a grass-roots
group dedicated to fighting the voting site change.
Its been a hard fight, where weve been losing
every inch of the way almost and yesterday we felt
that justice was served, she said.
Williamson said the proposed change to move the
voting site to a location 20 minutes off campus would
have made it more difficult for students to vote, due to
lack of transportation and time constraints.
They were deliberately trying to make it harder
for students to vote, and that was the only explana-
tion, said Gerry Cohen, a now-retired special coun-
sel to the N.C. General Assembly.
In March, the Orange County Board of Elections
moved an early voting site off of UNCs campus to
North Carolina Hillel but Cohen said the UNC site
is still close to campus and accessible by public transit.
He added that voters in Watauga County are evenly
split between the Democratic and Republican parties,
whereas Orange County is a heavily Democratic area
and is therefore less contested in elections.
Williamson said Watauga County has the largest
number of registered student voters in the state.
I have great faith in young people, she said.
The futures theirs, not mine.
Carson Rich, ASU student body president, said
hes excited about the ruling.
It was blatantly obvious that decisions had been
made, previous to this one, to hinder student vot-
ing, he said. I think, regardless of peoples political
beliefs or backgrounds, that is not right.
state@dailytarheel.com
Fox said. She had a great business sense
and dad was a genius at that. She was the
softness, though, where dad could have the
vision, and she would do the rest.
From giving students a job when they
needed one to being the first to embroi-
der the Old Well onto a tie, Maurice and
Mary Julian worked to not only give
back, but also to create UNC traditions
that their children could carry on for
years to come.
Maurice Julian died in 1993, and Mary
Julian died three years later in 1996.
I dont think you can separate Chapel
Hill and Julians, Fox said. I think that
this is a place where a Julians could thrive.
Its very core and heart is a personification
of Chapel Hill.
Seventy-two years after Maurice Julian
started it all, Julians has changed in many
ways. Now located at 135 E. Franklin St.,
the store is run by a third generation of
Julians Foxs son, Bart.
But the trait that never seems to disap-
pear is the spirit of Maurice and Mary
Julian.
For them to be recognized for really
playing a role in this town that they chose
and that they loved so much, Fox said. It
inspires us in their memory, and its a won-
derful legacy for our children.
Now, sitting in the store where she
can look out the front windows and see
the building that housed her parents
legacy, a misty-eyed Fox says the business
will always be motivated by the two who
started it all.
Im proud of mom and dad, Fox said.
Ive always been proud of them. I know
that everything that Ive done and every-
thing that weve done is to make them
proud of us too.

Emmy Awards
honor UNC grads
By Trey Flowers
Staff Writer
Two pairs of UNC graduates took
home Emmy awards at the 35th
annual awards show this year for
their work with The Guardian and
National Public Radio.
Gabriel Dance, Feilding Cage,
Joshua Davis and Nacho Corbella
won Emmys at the News and
Documentary Emmy Awards on
Sept. 30. Dance and Cage, along
with their team from the Guardian,
were presented the Emmy in the
New Approaches: Current News
Coverage category, for their interac-
tive piece, NSA Files: Decoded.
Davis, Corbella and their NPR
team won in the New Approaches:
Documentary category for their visual
story, Planet Money Makes a T-shirt.
As the interactive editor of the
Guardian, Dance said he found the
publics reaction to Edward Snowdens
leak of National Security Agency
(NSA) documents compelling for an
interactive article, featuring inter-
views, infographics and statistics.
I worked with reporter Ewen
MacAskill to put together the story
that we wanted to tell, and the goal of
NSA: Decoded was to make the story
the Guardian had been reporting over
the past four or five months more eas-
ily relevant to our readers, which is
to say to make it personal and direct
and interesting, Dance said. Because
what we continued to hear from
people when we talked about the NSA
story was that Oh, Im not doing any-
thing wrong so this doesnt have to do
with me, and I considered that a really
dangerous thing to say.
Davis holds a similar sentiment
regarding the pertinence of Planet
Money Makes a T-shirt, a project
that followed the inputs and pro-
cesses involved in creating a T-shirt,
that make it a global project. Davis
created another Emmy-nominated
piece called 100 Gallons while at
the School of Journalism and Mass
Communication and notes its impact
on Planet Money Makes a T-shirt.
I got hired to build a team and
produce the project, so my process
for that was similar to things I had
done at UNC through 100 Gallons,
where we just sort of involved people
from a variety of skill sets to form a
team and to tell a story, Davis said.
The project sold T-shirts that can
be scanned by a smartphone to see
those who created the shirt and has
raised over $590,000 on Kickstarter.
Susan King, dean of the
School of Journalism and Mass
Communication, said she hopes
the recent success of its graduates
will bring the school even more
acclaim in the industry.
I hope more and more industry
leaders will say, Wow, weve got to
go to UNC to do recruiting there,
she said.
I hope more and more students
will say, Wow, that sounds like some-
thing Id like to do. Rather than just
be liberal arts, let me go to the jour-
nalism school, where Ill get not only a
liberal education, but Ill get a skill.

A UNC research institute hosted
Rep. David Price, D-N.C., on
Tuesday to showcase projects and
draw attention to years of decreases
in federal funds for science research.
Price toured the Center for
Developmental Science, an inter-
institutional research center at UNC,
as part of a national effort to connect
psychological sciences with legislators.
Andrea Hussong, the director of
the center, highlighted the centers
dependence on funding from the
National Institutes of Health, the
National Science Foundation and the
U.S. Department of Education but
national budget cuts have slowed
funding in recent years.
In the current political climate its
too easy to take cheap shots at funny
sounding research projects, Price said
to a group of almost 20 of the centers
professors, graduates and undergrad-
uates during a town hall style meeting
at the conclusion of his visit.
Price also toured facilities at
Research Triangle Park in September
and gave a talk there. Faculty mem-
bers from N.C. State University, Duke
University and UNC asked him after
the talk what they could do to help
secure funding for their initiatives
but Price told them the current
gridlock in Congress makes funding
increases a difficult prospect.
On Tuesday, Price visited three
of the centers projects, including a
study of pregnant mothers tobacco
and e-cigarette use and the role of
teachers language in childrens aca-
demic development.
But limited federal funding
can be stretched thin among proj-
ects, and Hussong said long-term
projects are often targeted to be
replaced with newer research.
You change what the future sci-
entists look like, said Donald Lysle,
chairman of the UNC Department
of Psychology, during the meeting.
You have far fewer of this great
crowd coming into that science.
Research institutes at UNC,
like the Center for Developmental
Science, also have to worry about
a potential $15 million realloca-
tion from UNC-system centers to
other priorities. The UNC Board of
Governors will continue discussing
the funding question at its meeting
later this month.
Price said budget pressures are
politically motivated, and research-
ers at the center should not have to
worry about political vulnerability.
But the legislature has made
progress, he said, and hes hopeful
his colleagues will relent.
Its hard, though, Price said.
Ive never seen it like this Ive
never seen things so locked up in
terms of some people just having
the ideology that will not let them
bend. Thats pretty unusual in
American politics.
The Watauga County plan will have
to be revised for the fall election.
David Price visited UNCs
Center for Developmental
Science on Tuesday.

know if he will remain in that
position or how the restructur-
ing will affect the committee.
I havent heard if there
is going to be any change,
Payne said. Ive actually
been waiting for some official
announcement.
Sophomore Sam
Pranikoff, an undergradu-
ate representative on the
Advisory Committee on
Transportation, said he thinks
the committee wont change.
Pranikoff said he is excited
to work with both depart-
ments and will work to keep
fees at a minimum.
He said, as far as park-
ing services are concerned,
students will not see any dif-
ference.
We will be working dili-
gently with safety and secu-
rity and with transportation
to keep student fees as low as
possible, he said.

Protests and displays of
support for Brown have taken
place nationwide, including
at UNC-CH, North Carolina
Central University and N.C.
Agricultural and Technical
University.
Ferguson resident Bassem
Masri called the situation an
all-out war. He has lived in the
city his whole life and has been
live-streaming the protests for
people around the world to see.
Im not a journalist, he
said. Im not really an activ-
ist. Im just pissed. You know
Im very pissed and thats what
everybody is on the front line.
After the march, protest-
ers gathered at police head-
quarters to discuss problems
plaguing the black community.
The rally was more intimate,
with around 100 people quietly
listening to speakers. A sense of
sorrow and frustration emitted
from the microphone as they
described the adversity they
faced because of their race.
Masri said the mainstream
media fails to capture the
police violence toward pro-
testers and said there is a lack
of accurate coverage.
We have standoffs with
them every day. People get
arrested and assaulted every
day. And none of that stuff
ever hits the mainstream
media, he said.
A Ferguson police lieuten-
ant refused to comment about
the weekends protests.
Extremist ideology has also
emerged.
Mauricelm-Lei Millere is a
leader in the African American
Defense League and works
with the Black Panther Party.
We want to be in every
state fighting the police,
Millere said. Im not talking
about civil disobedience or
protests, Im talking about
doing to them the same thing
they doing to us, doing to our
people. Shooting them down
like dogs.
Millere said he does not
preach violence.
Of course you shoot the
police, Millere said. Thats not
violence, thats self-defense.
The police are shooting us
theyre killing our kids.

essay into the space provided.
Kelli McAlister, a 1976
applicant, said her application
had moments for reflection
and creative writing, but there
was not overwhelming pres-
sure to write the perfect essay.
Put a stamp on it, put it
in the mail and hope for the
best, she said.
While it has not always been
that easy, the process of apply-
ing to the school has changed
greatly. In the late 1800s and
early 1900s, preparation in
Greek, Latin and a knowledge
of Shakespeare and Tennyson
were requirements for fresh-
men entering the University.
The 1932 application for
admission asked for the
applicants high school prin-
cipal or headmaster to judge
the applicant on fields like
physical health, emotional
adjustment and trustwor-
thiness, among others. The
scale for the survey ranged
from above average to below
average, with a small box for
comments.

Universitys 1959 application
said the school looked at a stu-
dents likelihood of becoming
an alumni who reflects credit
on the university.
Women were first allowed
at UNC in 1897, but only in the
graduate program for nursing.
According to an admissions
document from 1964, women
students were admitted
almost exclusively on the basis
of the amount of space in the
womens residence halls.
In 1880, only 241 students
were enrolled at the University.
This year, 18,370 undergradu-
ate students are enrolled.
The number of applica-
tions has also increased
throughout the years, with
this past year having a record
breaking 31,331 applications.
Only 28.5 percent of those
applicants were admitted to
the University.
Breck Radulovic and
Kiralina Soare are high school
seniors who both said the essay
was the most important part of
their UNC application.
Radulovic said UNCs appli-
cation does not give enough
space to express who you are.
Most of (the current appli-
cation) is very cut and dry fac-
tual stuff, and if school is not
the only important thing in
your life, then it doesnt reflect
your interests, she said.
This year marks the fourth
year UNC has used the
Common Application.
History professor James
Leloudis said admissions deci-
sions are harder to make now
that UNC uses the Common
Application, because it is dif-
ficult to tell how committed
students are to the school.
Leloudis said since applica-
tions are submitted online and
it is easy for students to just fill
out applications, they might
apply even if they are not com-
pletely committed to UNC.
In comparison to the early
1900s when the University
looked for white male stu-
dents who were competent
in basic algebra and Greek
UNC has drastically changed.
We look for evidence that
you are the type of person
who sees opportunity in
every challenge, who likes
to tackle problems and who
will encourage classmates to
greatness, the UNC admis-
sions website states.
Despite the changes the
admissions application has
undergone, students still
stress about making their
applications perfect.
Theres more they expect
of us, Soare said.

Study looks at
voter ID impact
By Charles Talcott
Staff Writer
Black, young and recently
registered voters are more
likely to be affected by voter
identification laws like North
Carolinas recently enacted
legislation, according to a U.S.
Government Accountability
Office study.
The GAO conducted the
study after senators, alarmed
by the number of states enact-
ing legislation they believe
makes it harder for voters to
cast ballots, requested it.
North Carolina is included
in this category, proposing
some of the highest standards
for voting in 2016, according
to Bob Hall, executive director
of Democracy North Carolina.
This report is even more
proof that these state laws
significantly suppress and
discourage Americans from
exercising their constitution-
ally protected right to vote,
said Sen. Richard Durbin,
D-Ill., in a statement. These
new laws will make it harder
for hundreds of thousands
of elderly, disabled, minority,
young, rural and low-income
Americans to exercise their
most basic right.
The study compared voting
data from 2008 and 2012 in
Kansas and Tennessee, where
voters are required to show
photo ID at polls, to those of a
number of other states, where
IDs are not required.
While ID requirements
vary from state to state, the
GAO found that 5 to 16 per-
cent of registered voters lack
the proper identification doc-
uments required for voting.
The numbers vary by race
and ethnicity. The GAO found
in one state that while 85
percent of white voters have
a valid ID for voting, only 81

5 to 16 percent
Voters lacking proper ID

White voters with proper ID

Black voters with proper ID
18 to 23
Age group hurt by ID laws
percent of black voters do. The
study estimated black voters
were more impacted by voter
ID laws than white, Asian-
American and Hispanic voters.
States have enacted restric-
tive laws because of concern
over voter fraud, but there is
dispute over the legitimacy
of this concern, said Robert
Popper, a senior attorney for
Judicial Watch.
The GAO claimed few
instances of voting fraud but
acknowledged that it is a dif-
ficult statistic to track because
the information is spread
across various databases, and
federal and state agencies col-
lect different amounts of data
on voting fraud.
Still, Popper said the results
of the study are tainted because
the GAO compared states in
which elections varied in sig-
nificance, thus drawing differ-
ent amounts of voters.
Then the GAO put Catalist,
a progressive organization, in
charge of presenting the data,
and the group distorted them,
Potter said.
That is a flawed study,
he said. Both Kansas and
Tennessee wrote response
letters objecting to all of the
problems with those studies.
They wrote these letters to the
GAO as the study was being
conducted, but the GAO went
on anyway.
The report found
minority youths are
affected more.
Cooper rallies student vote
By Lindsey Brunson
Staff Writer
N.C. Attorney General
Roy Cooper, a potential 2016
gubernatorial candidate, spoke
on campus Tuesday to mobilize
student involvement in the
2014 and 2016 elections.
During the event, hosted
by UNC Young Democrats,
Cooper stressed the impor-
tance of the Democratic cause
in re-electing N.C. Sen. Kay
Hagan in November, encourag-
ing students to rally people to
vote early and to educate them-
selves on their voting choices.
I dont think we can take
back the House and the Senate
in 2014, but we can make
incremental progress, he said.
Cooper said North Carolina
has been a beacon in the
South for progress-driven
people, but he said that has
changed with the election of a
governor and legislature with
an extreme agenda.
While working to elect
Democratic officials this cycle,
Cooper reminded students to
keep the next gubernatorial
elections in mind.
I hope you stay in North
Carolina to help us do this in
2016, he said. This is when
we are going to take back
our state.
While Cooper said in an
interview that it is too early to
make any official announce-
ments about his own run for
governor in 2016, he said he
is strongly considering it.
Im deeply concerned
about where the state is
headed. I want to be a part of
change, he said.
Shauna Rust, UNC junior
and co-president of the
Campus Y, said it was inspir-
ing to hear Cooper talk about
the direction he hopes state
politics will take.
It was just really exciting
to think about, even though
we may not get a liberal
majority in the House or the
Senate this year, the progress
we can make in the years to
come, she said.
Cooper also spoke about
the state of public educa-
tion, expressing his concern
about teachers leaving North
Carolina for neighboring
states to get better pay.
Troy Homesley, a first-year
UNC law student, said he was
glad to hear Cooper address
education.
I think thats one of
the things most North
Carolinians are frustrated
about because they see it as
something thats taken 40,
50 years to build up, through
the work of people like Bill
Friday, Jim Hunt; swept out
from underneath us in only a
few years, he said.
Cooper also spoke about
the voting law passed in 2013,
calling them the toughest vot-
ing laws in the country. But
he said its his duty as attor-
ney general to defend the vot-
ing law in court for the state
when it goes to trial in 2015.
I believe these laws should
be changed because they
make it harder for people to
register and vote and thats
bad public policy, and Im
going to continue to speak out
DTH/CAMERON ROBERT
Roy Cooper spoke with UNC students in Bingham Hall Tuesday in
an effort to mobilize young Democrats for upcoming elections.
against that bad public policy,
but our attorneys are going to
continue to do their job, he
said in an interview.
Tony Liu, UNC sophomore
and vice president of the Young
Democrats, said Coopers
address gave students a
positive energy about voting in
light of the upcoming elections.
This is such an important
election, regardless of who
they vote for, in determining
the fate of the Senate, he said.

UNC-system happenings
Part of a regular update
on UNC-system schools.
Compiled by staff writer Olivia Lanier.
UNC-C helps settle coal ash UNC-W gets $1 million grant NC A&T is largest HBCU in US
Jean-Michel Cousteau, a distinguished
underwater explorer, called for action to pro-
tect endangered ocean resources at a recent
lecture he gave at East Carolina University.
Cousteaus mission to preserve oceans
and sea life was first inspired by his father,
Jacques Cousteau.
The younger Cousteau said every person
is connected to water and to oceans, so deci-
sions made about how endangered ocean
resources are managed have significant
global impacts.
Chemicals in trash eventually make
their way to water systems that flow into
the oceans and impact marine life, he said.
Marine debris is a global problem with
a global solution, he said.
Faculty members at UNC-Charlotte
will be directly involved in Duke Energys
efforts to drain and close its coal ash
impoundments nationwide.
The faculty will join national experts on a
board tasked with reviewing Dukes imple-
mentation of the new state coal ash policy.
John Daniels, the boards chairman, said
the board is funded by Duke.
Each of the panelists have to sign a
conflict of interest, and none of them can
be funded by Duke personally, Daniels said.
Daniels said part of his job as chair is to
ensure that the panel covers the range of
expertise required for this issue including
dam stability, environmental risk assess-
ment and community engagement.
UNC-Wilmington received a $1 mil-
lion grant from the U.S. State Department
to partner with the International Islamic
University in Islamabad, Pakistan.
Its the biggest State Department grant
a UNC-system school has received to date.
The grant will allow UNC-W to conduct
faculty and student exchanges with the
Islamic school and encourage research and
teaching collaborations between the schools.
Tara Romanella, a UNC-W media rela-
tions specialist, said in an email that UNC-
Ws commitment to the best practices
in applied learning and its emphasis on

Carolina For the Kids limits overhead costs
By Sam Shaw
Staff Writer
Carolina For the Kids
Foundation, formerly known
as Dance Marathon, plays it
straight with their fundraising.
Were focusing on being
more transparent with
people. The money is actu-
ally going where we say
its going, said Executive
Director Evan Sherwood.
The organization raised
$551,595.87 in 2014.
Approximately $440,000
was disbursed to N.C.
Childrens Hospital.
It has had a huge impact
on the lives of children and
families that are being taken
care of, said Dr. Wesley Burks,
chairman and chief physician
of the N.C. Childrens Hospital.
Theres not a lot of paying
for the extraneous adminis-
trative costs. Theyre better
than the national guidelines
from what Ive seen, he said.
About $73,000 of the
$111,000 difference between
the amount raised and amount
distributed was accounted for
by in-kind donations or servic-
es rendered for free to the orga-
nization which cannot then be
passed on to grantees.
The organization mini-
mizes overhead costs by solic-
iting donations of goods and
services. Food, entertainment,
costumes and facility usage
for the Dance Marathon event
are donated and counted in
the $551,595.87 total.
They paid Carolina Union
Production Services around
$21,000 for lighting, stage
setup and other services associ-
ated with the dance marathon.
Carolina For the Kids rais-
es money through a number
of events during the course of
the year, including a 5-kilo-
meter road race, a benefit
reception, merchandise sales
and their largest-grossing
event the Dance Marathon.
The money benefits patients
of N.C. Childrens Hospital
and their families.
Through their funding,
we were able to see several
hundred kids and their fami-
lies for palliative care, said
Elisabeth Dellon, medical
director of the Childrens
Supportive Care Team at N.C.
Childrens Hospital. Her team
provides care to very ill chil-
dren with the goal of improv-
ing their quality of life.
For kids that are dying, we
provide education for the fam-
ily on what to expect, she said.
Jacob Lohr, professor of
pediatrics and adviser to
Carolina For the Kids, credits
student leadership for the
growth of the organization.
There were times where
groceries were paid for. I know
of at least one circumstance
where a familys mortgage was
paid for so they wouldnt lose
their home, he said.
Carolina For the Kids meets
regularly with the fundraising
arm of N.C. Childrens Hospital
to determine where need
exists. It decides which grants
it wishes to fund that year, and
the hospital disburses money
accordingly, Lohr said.
Were always looking for
new ways to really support
these patients and these fami-
lies who come to the hospital
at the hardest times in their
lives, Sherwood said.

Nyambi Jabang goes up against a player from Georgia States
mens soccer team Tuesday. Jabang scored two goals for UNC.
By Danielle Herman
Senior Writer
Thirty-five yards out, with
a defender right behind him,
redshirt sophomore mid-
fielder Nyambi Jabang made
it look easy.
Coming in as a substitute
in the 27th minute, Jabang
jumpstarted the No. 15 North
Carolina mens soccer teams
offense which struggled
initially to get strong scoring
opportunities in its 4-0 win
against Georgia State (4-7-0,
0-1 Sun Belt) on Tuesday.
Thats the point of com-
ing out of the bench, Jabang
said. As soon as you get in
there you want to put some-
thing out on the table.
With one touch around the
Georgia State defender, Jabang
settled the pass from mid-
fielder Raby George. And then
he rocketed the ball toward the
far post past the goalkeeper to
make it 2-0 UNC (9-4-0, 3-2-0
ACC) in the 33rd minute.
But he didnt take the time
to dwell on it.
The first goal? he said.
Its kind of hard to remember,
we got a lot of opportunities.
Jabang fired off seven of
UNCs 18 shots and followed
his first goal with another less
than 10 minutes later.
In the 43rd minute, sopho-
more midfielder Omar Holness
sent a corner kick into the mid-
dle of the box. Jabang slammed
a header into the net.
Redshirt senior forward
Andy Craven, who scored the
first goal Tuesday, said Jabang
is a special player.
Nyambi can literally do
anything, Craven said. Its
sometimes hard to tell what
hes doing, but then out of
nowhere, the balls in the back
of the net.
Jabang has suffered mul-
tiple injuries during his time
at UNC, first recovering from
a torn ACL and then a torn
meniscus.
His talent has helped carry
him through his struggles,
and while he said hes not as
physically fit as he needs to
be, he continues to make an
impact on the field.
These are Jabangs third
and fourth goals of the season
and his first game in which he
scored multiple goals.
(I expected him) to try his
hardest and play with inten-
sity, contribute to the team
and do his best, Coach Carlos
Somoano said.
Despite his success and the
excitement fans and other play-
ers expressed about his goals,
Jabang had a modest attitude.
It feels good to have
them, he said. But you cant
be satisfied with them.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT
Hope for more festive
future marriages
TO THE EDITOR:
Hillsborough takes pride
in its colonial American
history. Pride, itself, came
to the Register of Deeds
office in Hillsborough and I
was there to witness.
Eager couples and sup-
porters huddled before
the entrance, folders in
hand. Several middle-aged,
same-sex couples beamed
as their relationships were
finally to be recognized by
the state. Two women had
their teenager to take pho-
tos! And one young man
and woman waited happily
to share the historic expe-
rience by happenstance.
Upstairs, the outgoing
Register of Deeds, Deborah
Brooks, was dressed in
black clothing more
befitting a funeral than the
celebration of a societys
acceptance of constitution-
al rights. The public was
welcomed by a black rope
and two black-on-white
printed signs prohibiting
the press from the vital
records office area.
Early on, all but one
of the original couples
received their documents.
Ms. Brooks denied one
female couple owing to a
discrepancy in name as
printed on two documents.
Before I left, a young,
male couple arrived for
their marriage license.
Joyful, they seemed less
scathed by the history of
immoral discrimination
the older couples had
endured.
And so, this is progress.
In seven weeks, beyond
the legal minimum, we can
expect our former Mayor
of Carrboro (and distin-
guished UNC alum), Mark
Chilton, to take the office
and have a more color-
ful welcome for We the
People!

Stereotypes keep
men from teaching
TO THE EDITOR:
The article, Only 9
male undergraduates are
education majors at UNC,
brings attention that very
few men are education
majors. As Mr. McDiarmid
said, the result is a lack of
diverse perspectives in the
classroom. It would also
be very beneficial for male
students to have this kind
of role model.
Although I would like
to praise the arguments
presented in the article, I
was a bit skeptical when
McDiarmid was quoted
saying, Wed get a lot more
males into the profession if
we could pay teachers what
they deserve.
Wages play a role,
although they ideally should
not in teaching. One who
does teach should do so
with a great passion to edu-
cate the next generation.
The aspect of the state-
ment I do not understand
is why it would specifi-
cally affect males becom-

Fear of
Ebola
must be
tempered
F
ew diseases evoke as
visceral a reaction as
Ebola, which conjures
images of uncontrollable
hemorrhaging as the virus dis-
integrates its host into a pool
of infectious blood. There is
no doubt this revulsion stimu-
lated attendance at the Ebola
Symposium at UNC on Friday,
where researchers and stu-
dents packed a sweltering con-
ference room to learn about
the current epidemic.
Among the speakers was Dr.
William Fischer II, a critical
care physician and pulmonary
disease specialist with UNC
Hospitals. Fischer treated
Ebola patients for several
weeks in a field hospital in
Guinea run by Doctors Without
Borders and the World Health
Organization. In his talk,
Fischer argued that a dispro-
portionate fear of Ebola is hin-
dering efforts to combat it and
stressed the need for increased
international intervention.
Such fear of Ebola likely
originates from sensational-
ized reports of extreme cases,
which can include severe bleed-
ing. In contrast to popular
imagination, Fischer observed
hemorrhaging in only 50 to 60
percent of cases, with blood loss
itself rarely causing death.
Reported mortality rates
associated with Ebola are
another likely source of panic.
While some strains of Ebola
have associated mortalities of
up to 90 percent, mortality in
this current outbreak is report-
ed to be around 70 percent and
can be significantly lowered
with intravenous fluids, elec-
trolytes and antibiotics to treat
secondary infections. Fischer
noted that fear itself can pre-
vent the administration of these
basic treatments. Health care
workers dont want to risk acci-
dental needle sticks and contact
with infectious fluids.
Aside from increasing mor-
tality rates, this lack of treat-
ment makes it more difficult to
track and isolate cases of Ebola
in the community. If commu-
nity members dont believe the
afflicted will fare better in a
hospital or that theres any
hope for recovery its less
likely they ll end up there.
These fears undermine any
attempts to cultivate trust
between citizens and the medi-
cal establishment, a trust criti-
cal for overcoming an epidemic.
If infected individuals are
allowed to remain at large, they
will continue to spread the dis-
ease and perpetuate a vicious
cycle of infection and fear.
Finally, fear discourages the
international community from
engaging in sufficient relief
efforts because the situation is
viewed as either too dangerous
or hopeless. The latter view
has led to public cries to isolate
infected countries and let the
disease run its course. While
no one can blame physicians
for their reservations, allowing
the current outbreak to con-
tinue to grow exponentially is
a mistake that could cost hun-
dreds of thousands of lives.
To be sure, Ebola is a deadly
disease that should not be taken
lightly. But narratives that pro-
mote fear and ignore the clinical
possibilities for managing this
outbreak threaten to exacer-
bate an already dire situation.
Thinking soberly about Ebola
can promote the progress in the
field and international engage-
ment necessary to bring this
epidemic under control.

ing teachers. Our nation is
facing a gender wage gap,
and to say that the pay is
not desirable to men but to
women is absurd.
When the article contin-
ued to explain that some
men are uncomfortable
being a teacher because
of the female dominated
profession, I found this
very ironic, as females often
find themselves in a field
that doesnt feel welcoming
toward (them.)
Yes I do believe there
need to be more efforts to
recruit men towards an
education degree. Making
claims that wages affect
men deciding to enter the
education field and are
discriminated against is
ridiculous when the real
reason seems to stem from
their own stereotypical
view.

Police militarization a
privilege, not a curse
TO THE EDITOR:
I would like to respond
to two recent articles
Local police forces explain
surplus military equip-
ment, (Sept. 17) and Man
on the street: Chapel Hill
residents talk police gear
(Oct. 3).
The Chapel Hill police
force has military equip-
ment this is a fact.
Opinions on the subject
vary, but there should be
little discontent.
Underlying this issue
is the fundamental mis-
trust of the police that is
becoming a trademark of
our country. It is undeni-
able that unwanted situ-
ations like the Ferguson
incident arise.
What we fail to recog-
nize, though, is that these
incidents get so much
publicity because they are
the exception to what we
normally experience with
the police.
According to the Justice
Department, among people
who had contact with police
in 2008, only an estimated
1.4 percent had force used
or threatened against
them. Although police bru-
tality is clearly an issue in
our society, in 98.6 percent
of the cases police are pro-
tecting us, not harming us.
So, what is the big
deal with more military
equipment in Chapel Hill?
The Chapel Hill Police
Department has adopted
a policy of visibility explic-
itly stating what they have
and in what instances this
equipment will be used.
Would an organization
planning to use weaponry
against you really decide
to host information ses-
sions for the public? I think
not. So lets start thinking
logically and stop accusing
our protectors of plotting
against us.
All should see the true
privilege in having the
proper equipment to ensure
that our homes will be pro-
tected if a terrible situation
should arise.

A
ny student on cam-
pus in February
can recall the
anticipation that accom-
panied the build-up to
the UNC-Duke game. For
a few hours it appeared
snow would prevent
well-heeled alumni and
fans from trekking to the
Smith Center, thus freeing
up precious seats for ram-
bunctious and passion-
ate students. Would the
atmosphere at this game
rival the famed Maryland
snow game of 2000
when snowed-in students
descended to the rarified
lower-level seats to cheer
on their Tar Heels?
Owing to Dukes fail-
ure to make the short
commute to Chapel Hill,
students never got to find
out. North Carolinas
climate may never again
meet in such perfect har-
mony with the basketball
schedule of the Atlantic
Coast Conference, but
UNC can still create a spe-
cial home-crowd energy
on an annual basis. Once a
year, the mens basketball
team should play an ACC
game in Carmichael Arena
for the benefit of students.
We are not the first
to propose this. Student

EDITORIAL
Powell both investigated
the potential for a basket-
ball game in Carmichael.
Unfortunately, the Powell
administration confessed
in its October report that
it has given up on hold-
ing a Carmichael Classic
after learning from the
athletic department that
such a game would forfeit
$800,000 in revenue.
This is a serious concern.
The athletic department
receives little funding from
the University. Instead, it
relies on revenue gener-
ated primarily from foot-
ball and mens basketball.
The athletic department
could help make up for the
loss in revenue by ending
its annual tradition of pay-
ing worse football teams
to travel to UNC to lose.
This year it paid San Diego
State $950,000 for, ulti-
mately, a last-minute win.
Carmichael currently
sits 6,822 individu-
als and hosts Carolinas
volleyball, gymnastics,
wrestling and womens
basketball teams. The
Carmichael Classic
should be open to stu-
dents only. To best ensure
that students dedicated
to Carolina Basketball
are allowed to attend, the
athletic department could
charge a fairly nominal
fee, perhaps $5, for stu-
dent tickets. This would
guarantee about $34,000
in revenue. Donations
from nostalgic alumni
could help make up some
of the difference.
Students could enter a
lottery based on seniority
for the right to buy a ticket.
Any unsold ticket could
sell on the open market.
Tickets for UNC-Duke
games often fetch hun-
dreds of dollars. Hopefully,
fans would pay just as
much for a conference
game at Carmichael.
This would be regres-
sive and insufficient to
recoup all the losses
from holding a game in
the Smith Center. Yet
the Carmichael Classic,
which has the potential
to become one of the
marquee collegiate sport-
ing events in the country,
would be a boon for the
UNC brand, drawing
positive attention from
future applicants and
television networks alike.
Furthermore, hosting
such a high-profile event
in Carmichael could draw
well-deserved attention to
the excellent teams that
play there already.
The Carmichael Classic
would be unpopular with
some season ticket hold-
ers. Balancing against
these drawbacks are the
invaluable and intan-
gible benefits of hosting
a wonderfully fun game.
From a courtside seat the
call might be hazy, but
from up in the rafters and
down on the risers it is
perfectly clear.
UNC should play a
conference game in
Carmichael Arena.
COLUMN
I
told my mother I was an
entrepreneur.
Does this mean youre
unemployed? she asked.
Maybe youve heard this
before, or even thought it:
What is an entrepreneur?
Where are all these entrepre-
neurs I hear so much about?
Can I be an entrepreneur?
Much has been written
about defining the title. Ask
the public to name an entre-
preneur and likely topping
the list are Steve Jobs, Mark
Zuckerberg and Bill Gates.
While these are great exam-
ples, entrepreneurship has a
fuller picture.
An entrepreneur is some-
one who takes the initiative
and assumes the risk of
organizing and managing
a venture. While the type
of venture started varies,
this definition is the com-
mon thread for those who
choose to use their ideas to
meet some perceived need
in the market, or in loftier
terms, the world. This
desire to leave desk jobs
behind and pursue entre-
preneurship is rising.
At colleges across the
country, a majority of stu-
dents are demanding a
curriculum with entrepre-

neurial courses, according
to the Young Entrepreneur
Council. And 16 percent of
college graduates started
their own business directly
out of college in the 2000s,
a rate that boasts more than
three times as many people
as 20 years ago.
Part of this surge in inter-
est can be attributed to an
economy in tepid recovery
and a brutal job market for
recent college graduates. The
unemployment and under-
employment rates for recent
college grads are 8.5 and
16.8 percent respectively,
although national unem-
ployment is at 5.9 percent.
With such depressing
numbers, entrepreneurship
is becoming a more attrac-
tive employment option for
new graduates who want to
take their futures into their
own hands.
But before you drop out of
college, its not all driven by
doom and gloom.
With emerging technology
and market opportunities
that didnt exist as little as
five years ago, 90 percent
of students ages 18 through
25 believe entrepreneur-
ship education is important,
according to numbers from
the Young Entrepreneur
Council. This has also cata-
pulted entrepreneurship into
the top five programs desired
by prospective MBAs.
An astounding 54 percent
of millennials have started
a business or plan to begin
one, according to Young
Invincibles.
Now more than ever,
students are accepting the
challenge to put their ideas,
and themselves, to work. As
one common entrepreneur-
ial quip goes, The only
place where success comes
before work is in the dic-
tionary. With an idea and
some dedicated work, you
can become a member of
a growing nation of start-
ups. Take my advice: Start
something.
Entrepreneurship can help millennials secure their futures.
