UNC wont
give MOOCs
credit in
near future

Mack Hollins leaves

nothing up to chance

At MIT, some MOOCs are

worth credit and even help
in the admissions process.

Junior receiver Mack Hollins (13) scores his second touchdown of the night during the third quarter. All of Hollins receptions resulted in touchdowns.

Mack Hollins is too quick for luck.

Two years removed from walk-on status,
the North Carolina receiver once dubbed
the Unlucky Kid has nestled into the
role of playmaker for the nations 10thranked scoring offense.
For Hollins, playing time is hardly a birthright. Despite earning a team-high eight
receiving touchdowns in 2014, the junior
entered Saturdays game with just eight catches through five games, fighting for every snap.
But with three receptions all for touchdowns in UNCs 50-14 dismantling of Wake
Forest, Hollins left nothing up to chance.
When you catch the ball, you might not
get another opportunity to get it, he said.
So try to score whatever it takes.
Hollins first opportunity came at the
onset of the second quarter, his team devoid
of a score and desperate for a spark.
With the Tar Heels trailing by seven, the
wideout surveyed the Wake Forest defense
packed in the box with a safety creeping in.
Hollins knew what was coming. He had
studied it all week on film and on the field.
He exchanged a glance with Williams,
another with the end zone.
We knew it was open before the ball was
even snapped, he said.
Moments later, Hollins split the secondary and hauled in a 57-yard strike to knot
the score at 7, shrugging as he sauntered

through the end zone. Who could stop him?

All he needs is the safety to step up about
two steps and hes going to be by them,
sophomore tailback Elijah Hood said. That
guy can fly.
But Hollins, 6-foot-4, is more than
just a downfield threat.
At the close of the third quarter,
Williams turned to his trusted target
for a corner fade from four yards out.
But the underthrown ball hurtled into
a Demon Deacon defenders helmet,
bouncing into the air and behind Hollins.
Honestly, I couldnt see off their
helmets, said Hollins, who was interfered with on the play. I just heard
it, and (thought), If I get lucky, lets
see what happens.
Hollins put his nimble
reflexes on display, pirouetting to the loose ball and tapReceptions
ping his toes in the corner of
the end zone.
Lucky bounce? Not a chance.
Receiving yards
He had prepared for this.
We call it League Feet, he
said, laughing. Always getting
Touchdowns

Two catches. Two touchdowns. But not enough for

Massive open online courses are

starting to change the nature of academics and admissions across the
world, but UNC might not be ready for
such major changes.
The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology announced plans this month
to pilot an inverted admissions process,
in which students who do well in a series
of online courses and tests will have a
better chance at earning admission to one
of the schools on-campus masters programs in supply chain management.
Mitch Prinstein, a UNC psychology
professor who teaches Psychology of
Popularity through Coursera, a website
that offers more than 1,400 MOOCs,
said there are challenges in using measures of someones performance like
MOOCs to try to anticipate that students readiness for certain programs.
Frankly, admissions is a very challenging process, Prinstein said. Youre trying to predict someones future behavior
based on measures of past behaviors that
are not identical. And so undergraduate
performance is not the same as whats
expected in graduate school, just as grade
school performance is not what youd
expect at the college level.
So all these measures are imperfect,
he said. I dont think that the MOOC
would solve any of these things, but
one could argue that the information it
provides would complement what we
already know.
According to MITs proposed plan,
MOOCs taken before the student is
accepted into the masters program
could be used to fulfill credits for
classes that would otherwise be taken
on-site in a traditional classroom, thus
shortening the time the student spends
earning the degree on campus.
Rob Bruce, the director of the Friday
Center, which creates many of the
Universitys online classes, said its difficult to imagine a MOOC substituting
for traditional classroom learning.
The instructional design is we think
about (MOOCs) as non-credit enrichment courses, Bruce said. The Friday
Center also creates a lot of the online
credit courses for the University, and it
is a much more lengthy process that we
use in our credit courses.
He said its difficult to imagine a
MOOC substituting for traditional
classroom learning.
Its a little different because thousands
and thousands of people in your online
classroom doesnt necessarily make for
the best type of learning experience, he
said. It really is more of an independent

Looking forward with the Chapel Hill 2020 plan

The town will focus
on six themes to
improve the town.
By Megan Royer
Staff Writer

Achieving the goals put in

place in the Chapel Hill 2020
comprehensive plan is easier
said than done.
The plan is not necessarily set to be completed by
the year 2020, as its name
suggests, but can be seen as
a play on words for residents

to have 20/20 vision looking

forward, said Megan WooleyOusdahl, a community sustainability planner for the
town of Chapel Hill.
The idea is for the people
of Chapel Hill to have good
vision for their community
as they look forward to the
future, Wooley-Ousdahl said.
The Chapel Hill 2020
comprehensive plan, which
passed in 2012 after an unanimous town council vote, is
meant to be a representation
of the communitys ideas for
how to improve the town.
The document is a guide

TABLEs third annual Empty Bowls
event helped raise awareness for childhood hunger. See page 3 for story

for the town for the next 10 to

15 years and outlines different
areas that the community is
interested in improving.
The plan has six overarching themes a place for
everyone; community prosperity and engagement; getting around; good places, new
spaces; nurturing the community; and a collaboration
between the town and UNC.
The six themes help guide
the work of the staff and the
council in setting policies,
Wooley-Ousdahl said. The
committee that developed the
plan wanted the community

to have an active voice in

developing the objectives.
She said most of the money
for 2020 projects is specifically set aside in the town
budget and some is funded by
specific departments.
There are also five major
goals the plan hopes to reach
through the objectives and
policies implemented in the
next several years: implement
more bike and pedestrian
paths; create an entrepreneurial enterprise hub on

entertainment, dining and
arts centers; establish a struc-

Empty Bowls lead to full stomachs

TABLE held an
event to kick off
fall fundraising
By Brooke Fisher
Staff Writer

Soup, music and pottery all came together

to raise awareness for childhood hunger at
TABLEs third annual Empty Bowls event.
TABLE, a local nonprofit organization that
provides food to children in schools around
Chapel Hill and Carrboro, hosted the event
Sunday as a fundraiser and a kick-off for their
fall fundraising campaign.
Our Empty Bowls event is designed to
help raise awareness about childhood hunger
in Chapel Hill and Carrboro as well as raise
funds for our programs, said Ashton Chatham
Tippins, executive director of TABLE.
The event planners hope to get community
members to become monthly donors, known
as TABLE setters, to help with the weekend
backpack program.
For $30, attendees received a piece of pottery from local artists, a bowl of soup and listened to live music.
Two local bluegrass bands, Guilty Pleasures
and The Good Ol Boys, performed.
All of the proceeds went directly to helping TABLE provide healthy food to 500 students on a weekly basis. In Chapel Hill and
Carrboro, 2,600 pre-school, elementary and
middle school students are food insecure,
according to TABLE.
Empty Bowls is a national grassroots campaign to help end hunger.
Tippins said a board member heard about
the event on vacation and thought it would
fit the local chapter as a fundraiser. All of the
pottery and food were donated, and musicians
volunteered their time to play at the event.
Two committee members spent time
reaching out to local potters, middle schools,

high schools and other people that are

involved and engaged with pottery so that they
might donate, Tippins said.
High school volunteers Arielle Martinez
and Molly Horan said they came to help
because a friend invited them, but ultimately
they enjoyed helping out a good cause.
I thought (volunteering) would be a good
use of time to help people instead of just sit at
home, Martinez said.

DeWana Anderson and Amy Sheffield from

The Animal Hospital in Carrboro, which is
close to TABLE, sponsored the event. They
said they would pass by TABLE often and
notice the work they were doing. They said
they felt inspired to help the organization.
If you can get high school kids and college
kids excited about helping, then its good for
the community, Anderson said.
At the event, Joy MacVane, founder of

TABLE, was honored with a quilted picture

of the TABLE house on Weaver Street, as
she and her husband are moving to New
Hampshire. She said she had often been asked
how the organization grew from helping 12
students to 500 in less than 10 years.
To that, MacVane said, (Were) accessing
the love in your hearts to feed children.

Support animals help students

Support animals provide
emotional or other
support to their owners.
By Cailyn Derickson

The neighboring Confederate

Staff Writer

Senior Jared Scruggs is the proud

owner of a small 10-month-old
pointer fox terrier named Willow.
But Willow isnt any regular puppy
she is a support animal.
Three years ago, UNC allowed
its first support animal in a residence hall. Today, there are three
students living with support
animals on campus, said Rick
Bradley, associate director of housing and residential education.
According to UNCs Animals
On Campus policy, a service animal is defined by law as a dog or
miniature horse, but support animals include more species. A support animal is an animal that provides emotional or other support
to an individual with a disability.
They used to be called comfort animals until the policy was
rewritten by accessibility resources, Bradley said.
He said cleanliness hasnt been
an issue since support animals
have been allowed.
Bradley said support animals
and service animals can sometimes
be confused as the same thing.
A service animal is trained to
perform a certain task, he said.
For example, with seizures, dogs
are trained to be alerted when their
owner is having a seizure. While
support animals are related more
to mental health related conditions,
such as anxiety and depression.
In March 2015, Scruggs said,

I was really depressed last year,
Scruggs said. Ive experienced
suicidal ideations in the past and I
was getting to a very low point and
I didnt want to get to that point.
Scruggs and his therapist decided getting a support animal would
be a good idea. My therapist

explained how having a therapy

dog or comfort animal would be
helpful for me and my symptoms,
Scruggs said.
Willow lives with Scruggs in
his on-campus apartment in
Odum Village.
The biggest way she helps is
just by being there, he said. Shes
helped by just being around with
her energy, basically the fact she
has so much energy helps me to
stay motivated.
Scruggs said he hasnt run into
any problems regarding Willow
living with him.
She had to be potty trained
for the first month, which was a
little rough, but it didnt take as
nearly as long as I would have

thought, he said.
If students want to apply for a
support animal, certain actions
must be taken through accessibility resources, Bradley said.
An approval must be made
and documentation from a mental
health specialist must be included,
which is then sent to us in housing, Bradley said.
Even though she is small,
Willow holds a big responsibility.
Junior year for me was a difficult year, Scruggs said. I feel
like she made it a lot easier there
towards the end and now with
my senior year, shes made it a lot
easier and a lot happier.

Shelton Station construction nally underway

After two years, the
mixed-use development
has broken ground.
By Alexis Allston
Staff Writer

After stalling for two years,

mixed-use development Shelton
Station is in progress.
The development, planned
for North Greensboro Street in
Carrboro, was approved in 2013,
but plans went dormant shortly
after approval.
The project has been in the
works since 2011.
Mark Moshier, principal of the
Legacy Real Property Group, said
the permits were issued by the
town of Carrboro a couple weeks
ago, and since then they have
started clearing the property and
doing site work.
Trish McGuire, planning director for the town of Carrboro, said

Durhams
own Silent
Sam

this site work includes the construction of the erosion control

pond.
Bethany Chaney, a member of
the Board of Aldermen, said she
is excited for the construction of
Shelton Station.
Chaney said she thinks more
housing units are needed near the
commercial area and city center.
This is going to be some really
quality and needed and relatively
dense rental housing right downtown, Chaney said.
Chaney said Shelton Station will
also provide more affordable housing options for Carrboro.
Whats particularly impressive
is that 20 percent of the units will
be restricted for affordable housing this was done voluntarily by
the developer, Chaney said.
Were really pleased to have
affordable housing right downtown, where people can access
public transportation. Its a good
use of this downtown property in
terms of adding housing and com-

mercial value to downtown.

The development will include a
four-story multi-family residential
building and a two-story commercial building and will cost around
$15 million.
There will be 94 residential
units, 20 percent of which will be
designated as affordable.
As for the commercial spaces
in Shelton Station, Moshier said
there is interest in leasing so far,
though he said he could not identify interested buyers.
Chaney said she wanted Shelton
Station built a year ago.
Its not unusual that there are
delays like this the permit process to get it through the town are
long enough, Chaney said.
There are often unexpected
things that happen during that
process that cause delays.
Moshier also said the delays were
due to the long permit process.
I think the delay was due
to working with the town of
Carrboro and the different folks

There are often unexpected things that happen during that process
that cause delays.
Bethany Chaney
Member of the Carrboro Board of Aldermen

like (Orange Water and Sewer

Authority) and the (Department
of Transportation) that needed to
grant approvals, Moshier said.
McGuire said modifications
were made to the building plan,
causing further delays in the process before construction.
There was a modification of the
project in 2015 when the site plan
was changed, then new permit
applications were submitted.
They identified some sides of
the building that needed to be
changed, McGuire said.

While Silent Sam has created controversy on UNCs campus, 12 miles down
the road, Durhams own Confederate
Soldiers Monument is stirring tensions.
The monument, located just outside
the Durham courthouse and dedicated
in 1924, attracted protesters last week
hoping to address the racial tensions surrounding such monuments.
I think this is the most pertinent discussion that should be had at this point in
our history, based on the events over the
last 12 months in this country, said Paul
Scott, an activist and minister in Durham
who protested the Confederate statue.
Claude Clegg, professor of history and
African, African American and Diaspora
studies at UNC, said these monuments
have come under greater scrutiny as police
brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement have brought race issues to the fore.
He said these monuments memorialize a
war fought over the right to own slaves.
To memorialize that in the 21st century is offensive, he said.
Scott suggested erecting a statue commemorating slaves across from Durhams
Confederate monument, but others want
to remove the statues entirely.
Destinee Grove, co-president of UNCs
NAACP chapter, said walking by Silent
Sam, which serves as a constant reminder
of her ancestors past, is difficult.
How do you want us to move past
these things when were constantly confronted with them every day? she said.
Clegg said conversations regarding
UNCs Silent Sam statue thus far havent
led to everyone feeling content, and the
resulting vandalization is students trying
to exercise their free speech rights.
There are obstacles to having productive conversations about racial issues,
Grove said.
White people people who are not of
color have issues being uncomfortable
in having these discussions with people of
color, she said. They feel theyre not welcome; they feel theyll be judged; they feel
theyll be discriminated against.
Scott said white people have historically been in a position thats led many to
feel threatened by change and the resulting loss of advantage.
Thats the nature of being conservative:
Youre conserving, you know, but our people have had nothing to conserve, he said.
But people of color face negative
social outcomes by speaking about race,
Grove said.
As people of color, we have to be able to
stand up for ourselves, and say, No, thats
racist. Dont do that. Thats not OK.
She said many administrators seem
unwilling to take sides but its up to them
and the UNC-system Board of Governors to
meet students halfway, Grove said.

Chapel Hill prepares for vote on

$40.3 million bond referendum
In the Nov. 3 election, residents of Chapel Hill will vote on a $40.3 million
bond referendum. The general order bond is divided into five areas. The
town has sufficient funds to pay off the bond without raising taxes.

Compiled by staff writer Janna

Childers.
Icons by Jun Chou.

Streets and sidewalks

This area of the bond
referendum includes
projects for bike and
pedestrian safety,
sidewalk construction,
street infrastructure and
downtown streetscape
improvements.
Bike and pedestrian safety projects would require $7.8
million and would include adding more bike lanes and crosswalk signals throughout the town.
Downtown streetscape projects would require $3 million
and would include the addition of lights and pedestrian amenities in downtown Chapel Hill.

Street infrastructure projects would be funded by

$3.4 million and would include the replacement of the
50-year-old Bolinwood Drive Bridge and street resurfacing projects.
Sidewalk construction projects would be allotted $2
million to repair, connect and construct new sidewalks that
would improve pedestrian safety.
Wendy Simmons, solid waste services manager, said
these improvements are needs based on several Chapel Hill
town plans.
In the latest community survey, overall flow of traffic
and congestion ranked first in overall importance out of
the 17 ranked service categories, Simmons said in an
email.

Trails and greenways

Recreation facilities

If this bond order is

passed, the money would
fund the expansion of two
trails in the Chapel Hill
greenway system.
The final section of the
Morgan Creek Trail would
be funded by $3 million and
would connect the current trail to the Carrboro town line. The
Bolin Creek Trail would require $2 million and would expand the
current 1.5 mile-long trail from Pritchard Avenue to Jay Street.
Without the bond order for this area, the projects would be
more or less dead, said Bill Webster, planning and development
manager for the towns Department of Parks and Recreation.

This area of the referendum includes projects

to renovate facilities at
the Cedar Falls park and to
build a new Community
Programming Space and
Parks and Recreation
Administrative Space.
The facilities would require $7 million.
Park renovations would be funded by $1 million from the
bond order and would include improvements to restrooms,
signage, picnic shelters and trash receptacles.
Webster said the town identified about $49 million in
park needs.

Solid waste facilities

Stormwater improvements

This project would work

to reduce costs for solid
waste disposal. Since the
Orange County Landfill
by Rogers Road closed in
2013, Chapel Hill has transported its solid waste to a
facility in Durham, which is
more expensive and has negative environmental impacts.
The bond order money would fund more cost effective
and sustainable ways to transport solid waste.
The town is reviewing various options and possibly partnering with other jurisdictions for the future disposal of garbage that
is collected by the town, Simmons said in an email.

To improve drainage
and prevent flooding in the
town, this component of
the bond referendum would
fund various stormwater
improvement projects.
In the latest community
survey, the quality of the
stormwater drainage system was ranked as the public works
departments most important maintenance service.
The current stormwater budget is funding studies on subwater sheds to identify needs for projects that would improve
drainage and water quality, said Chris Jensen, stormwater
management engineer for the town.

Ferris said MOOCs can and
do play a major role in attracting students to universities,
whether or not theyre a part
of the admissions process.
He said for people across the
globe for whom education isnt

can provide insight into the

world of higher education.

Most of the world does not
have the resources to do higher
education in the sense that our
students do here, Ferris said.
But if they have access to a
computer they can take these
courses, and bright students
will be inspired and hope to
better their situations in life
because of them.

Some elements of the bike

plan have been implemented
since the plan was passed,
including the addition of bike
lanes on Rosemary Street.
I feel like (bike lanes on
Rosemary) is a good start, but
on a campus that is primarily being walked and biked,
I feel like the primary focus
shouldnt be on driving, but
on pedestrians and bikers,
said UNC sophomore and
frequent biker Yaser Iftikhar.

I think bike lanes should be

standard on all streets.
Along with smaller area
plans, the Chapel Hill 2020
plan greatly focuses on
improving and maintaining
the general downtown area.
How we maintain vibrant
downtown and how we build
upon it are rooted in the goals
created in the Chapel Hill

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Taylor Fricano, on the volleyball teams performance this weekend

Alex Thomas

hen it comes to K-12

education in North
Carolina, the first
thing that most likely comes to
mind is how poor the state has
become for teachers and with
good reason.
North Carolina is ranked
as the one of the worst states
for instructors because of low
salaries and limited chances
for income growth, which has
resulted in fears of teachers
leaving the state to find positions with higher salaries.
With this information follows blame, and no one is
easier to blame right now
than the Republican-led
General Assembly. And as a
result, the go-to solution from
many appears to demand
Republicans improve salaries
or face being replaced with
Democrats. But while pay raises are important, a larger issue
is being ignored by many.
Teachers often deal with a
lack of communication from
both state and local governments, which can be especially problematic as instructors are forced to deal with
changes lacking their input,
creating difficulties in organizing classes.
One prominent example is
the apparent inevitable move
away from the Common Core
standards. The initiative was
fully implemented prior to
the 2012-13 school year in an
attempt to unify education
goals with other states.
While Common Core is not
a federal program, its usage
opened the door for the federal government to base their
funding on whether or not
state schools kept up with the
standards. This was primarily
checked through a plethora of
high stakes tests.
This connection raised concerns and is one of the reasons
current legislators want to
move away from the initiative.
Both actions placed massive
amounts of stress on teachers,
who had little influence on the
standards themselves, as questions rose on the best methods
to teach and if their performance was adequate.
There are also issues caused
by local school systems.
Shannon Winchester, a former history teacher of mine
at Weddington High School,
said changes are often pushed
by local leaders as a result of
funding changes, which may
be difficult to handle and organize classes around, especially
in more diverse institutions.
However, Winchester said
conversations between teachers and government leaders do
happen, making note of outreach conducted by Rep. Craig
Horn, R-Union. Yet that does
not mean all legislators are
taking similar actions.
Although it is reasonable to
be disappointed with current
teacher salary rates, education
is larger than just incomes. It
is nice to know some legislators have held conversations
on education, but more discussions need to be conducted to
assure teachers have a voice
in what is implemented in the
classroom.
Holding conversations
would take a tremendous
amount of resources to organize, and might not solve problems caused by the federal government. However, it would be
an effort dedicated to making
our education system stronger
and our teachers happier.

EDITORIAL

An embarrassment
UNC Board of
Governors practices
need reform.

learly, the Board of

Governors selection process for
UNC-system president
is not working the way it
should. It has been characterized by infighting,
calls for board chairperson John Fennebresques
resignation and acrimony
between the board and the
North Carolina legislature.
The boards decision to
designate its meeting with
UNC-system presidential
candidate and former
U.S. Education Secretary
Margaret Spellings an
emergency is revealing
in its lack of transparency
and how it has rushed
what should be a carefully
considered public debate.
This process has clearly
been political, starting
from the moment current
UNC-system president
Tom Ross was ousted.
Due to this highly dysfunctional process, Gov.
Pat McCrory should sign
the legislation on his desk
that would bring some
(but not all) of the needed
reforms required by this
situation, and he should
do so before Oct. 30.
The UNC-system
search process needs to be
democratized. These problems stem beyond flawed

leadership decisions and

go back to a flawed system
of university governance.
The board is clearly having internal arguments, but
the questionable decisions
it is making suggest the
boards processes need to be
more out in the open. This
would improve accountability of the board to the
students, faculty, college
administrators and ordinary taxpayers of the state.
This does not mean the
legislature should have
final approval over the
UNC-system president candidates. Board members
should be allowed to do the
jobs they were appointed
to, but they should have to
do so without trying to hide
their arguments and positions, and the public should
not have to wait until The
(Raleigh) News & Observer
reporter Jane Stancill
reveals a fresh new batch of
board emails to understand
the debates happening on
the board.
The board should, as
the legislation proscribes,
consider at least three
candidates, and the idea
for term limits on the
board is also sensible.
But despite the boards
public statement that it
would abide by the legislation, concerns that
the boards meeting with
Spellings indicate they are
not taking the other unannounced candidates as seri-

ously should be addressed.

To dispel future concerns in the UNC-system
president selection processes, when the legislature returns from break,
it should pass legislation
requiring the board to
meet with candidates it
considers in open session.
It should further require
each candidate the board
considers to meet with
UNCs faculty assembly.
If a candidate is not
willing to be subjected to
public scrutiny before taking the job of UNC-system
president, that candidate
should not be UNCsystem president. This
editorial board doesnt buy
the argument that deliberations must be secret to
attract quality candidates.
It seems likely that
quality candidates would
be more attracted to lead
the system if the board
hadnt forced out Tom
Ross, who was highly
qualified and has performed the job admirably.
While it is too late for
any more legislation during this selection process,
the board and candidates
for the job should abide by
these standards.
Democracy and policymaking are messy processes, but they must
be done openly to truly
reflect democratic values.
Otherwise, what the hell
are we doing?

An Uber big deal

he idea of subsidized Uber travel

is an exciting one.
Under a proposal led by
National Panhellenic
Council and Interfraternity
Council leaders, travel via
Uber ride-sharing would
be subsidized for UNC
students.
While we encourage students to stay informed, the
student body should not
lose its sense of skepticism
as this pilot project steamrolls toward final approval.
The promise of subsidizing Uber rides would provide a convenient transportation option for UNC students, drunk or otherwise.
But this promise has been
shrouded in secrecy. An
anonymous donor is working directly with NPC and
IFC leaders to implement
the pilot. Talks in UNC
Student Body President
Houston Summers administration about the project
have been underway since
at least August. Given the

lack of transparency, the

democratically elected
student body president
has not been forthcoming
with details on how race,
gender, disability or driver
prejudice could exclude
certain students or create
unsafe situations.
Usually, initiatives
designed for student safety
are handled by the administration, the Department
of Public Safety or student
government. If the Uber
project is meant to benefit
One Carolina, why does
Summers seem to be hearing about it through the
grapevine? If the project
is handled by fraternity
and sorority leaders, do
non-Greek students have
a reasonable expectation
of inclusivity?
It seems a conversation with the potential
to affect student safety is
happening among those
in the know and is taking
place under the table. In
order to move forward
with negotiations with
Uber, Summers admitted
to signing a nondisclosure
agreement, stipulating
his consent to temporar-

EDITORIAL

More information is
needed on the free
Uber project.

TO THE EDITOR:
I want to clarify
several points in the
article, Faculty Executive
Committee Discusses
Student Stores Fate.
The article states that
in Mondays meeting Vice
Chancellor Fajack and I
both mentioned several
ways that Follett could
increase the UNC Student
Stores profit that goes
toward scholarships. I
want to reiterate that we
have made no decision
about whether to outsource, much less have we
focused on one potential
firm. We are conducting
a Request for Proposal
process, in which any party
including the existing
staff of Student Stores
may submit a proposal.
Accordingly, we are conscious of referencing specific firms and instead only
speak in general terms
about potential bidders.
Of most concern is the
statement attributed to me,
Ives said cuts in personnel are likely if the store
is privatized, but it would
help to reduce costs. In
my recollection, that is not
a complete representation of what I said. When
asked how an outside firm
could make more money, I
responded that they could,
among other things, save
costs by providing certain
services such as marketing, human resources and
accounting centrally. The
article did not include my
follow-up statement, which
was that our staff currently
providing those services
will be retained in the new
service delivery center we are
creating in the Division of
Finance and Administration.
As we work through
this process, treating our
employees fairly is one of our
main concerns, along with
increasing funds to support
need-based scholarships and
continuing to provide a highlevel of service to campus.

ily withhold information

from the student body.
Before supporting this
proposal, information
regarding the implementation and impact on
local town business and
the Department of Public
Safety is imperative. While
projects geared toward
student safety hang in
bureaucratic purgatory,
the generous benefactors
motives are unknown
rather than transparent
and accountable.
Though the benefactor
has every right to remain
anonymous, this person
or persons could work to
provide specific details
of the plan that remain
veiled in secrecy. This
may quell many of the
concerns students ought
to hold with the Uber
subsidization project.
In an interview,
Summers said the fact
the pilot project works
outside of the Universitys
cumbersome bureaucracy
would quickly bring to
light any problems facing
it. We can only hope that
this is the right judgement
to make.

TO THE EDITOR:
Affordable housing for
people who work in Chapel
Hill has been a significant
issue for the current Chapel
Hill Town Council for the
past four years. Yet the
council has managed to
largely ignore the requirement for affordable housing with its recent decisions
on Obey Creek, Ephesus
Fordham and The Edge.
Nancy Oates has been
an advocate for affordable housing, speaking at
forums, attending educational sessions and writing
about the issue on her blog,
Chapel Hill Watch. She will
strive to keep Chapel Hill
affordable for those who
work here and that is one of
the strong reasons why in
this upcoming election we
will vote for Nancy Oates

for Town Council.

The University Day

protests were merited
TO THE EDITOR:
I am sick of other white
men appropriating the
rhetoric of those seeking
liberation in an effort to
seem oppressed.
Specifically, Im addressing the letter to the editor,
The University Day protest
was hurtful. My reply, in
short, is that bruising a
privileged ego is not the
same as suffering daily and
systematic violence at the
hands of the University and
the ways racism is honored,
institutionalized and practiced on this campus.
I would like first to
address the author of the
letters assertion that the
Real Silent Sam Coalition
doesnt understand that the
meaning of Silent Sam has
changed. On the contrary,
it is you who fails to realize
that the meaning of Silent
Sam has not changed. If
you dont understand how
racism becomes institutionalized; if you havent considered who we honor and
who we dont, how we honor
them and why; if you believe
white supremacy ended
with the Civil War, then I
would pity your ignorance if
it werent so intentional.
In response to your
reprimanding of faculty for
applauding the protest, I
can only ask how anyone
could feel so entitled as to
believe his tuition buys the
silence of our faculty. Do you
wish your professors, as well
as black and brown bodies
on this campus, were your
slaves? If you think [faculty] shouldnt have supported something unrepresentative of every students
belief, I must wonder what
it is your beliefs are. Could
they be, and white people
shudder at the thought of
being accused of what we
are racist?
You are correct about
one thing: RSSC is uncompromising, because justice
is not up for negotiation. It
is not the job of the RSSC to
court your allyship, or make
Black liberation more palatable to you. The fact that
your support of antiracist
movements is conditional
on your comfort says more
about you than a letter to
the editor ever could.

Zombies infect UNC campus for week

Septembers horde
was led by zombie
Donald Trump.
By Rachel Jones
Staff Writer

This week, the walking

dead will infect campus
and not just those with an 8
a.m. class.
Today marks the start of
the Urban Gaming Clubs
Humans vs. Zombies weeklong game. The game itself
resembles an unholy union
between LARPing live
action role playing and a
Resident Evil video game.
Humans are signified by
bandanas on their arms, while
zombies sport theirs on their
heads; potential survivors use
NERF guns and socks to stun
zombies, while the undead
turn the living by touching
them or their weapons.
First-year Mitchell Slentz,
who attended the fall night
game earlier in the semester,
said participants were given
objectives and missions during gameplay.

So we just had to do tasks,

like moving boxes of books
and stuff like that, and we
couldnt get tagged by zombies, he said. We could shoot
the zombies with NERF guns,
and if we did, they were out
for 10 minutes. And then I
got tagged at one point, and I
became a zombie, and my job
was to tag other people and
make them zombies.
Septembers night game
boasted a theme based on
current events: the zombies
were led by presidential candidate Donald Trump.
We just kind of pulled it
out of our ass and said, Oh,
wouldnt it be funny if there
were zombies and their leader
was Donald Trump? said
senior Ali Schneider, Urban
Gaming Club president.
This weeks event has an
80s theme, based on the
poorly acted and plot-light
films of the decade.
We got our inspiration
from Kung Fury, which was
an indie film from YouTube,

event planner and non-playing moderator.

culture event, the Humans

vs. Zombies games have an
intense following and surprisingly detailed mythos.
Schneider also said there
are former players, like Luke
Miller aka Superman, who
live on in infamy.
(Miller) holds the national
record for most people tagged
in a game. One time, he hid
under a table for three hours,
and he tagged like 6 people
that way because they didnt
know he was under there,
she said.
Beyond the Trumpinspired escapades and the
novelty of seeing students run
around campus with bandanas and NERF guns, the event
has a strong sense of community and inclusivity. Schneider
said the close-knit alumni of
the group are major resources

for the club.

A lot of players that have
graduated and moved on to
the real world donate theirs,
plus some people buy the latest
model from NERF and then
donate the old ones. she said.

The entire founding class

graduated at once, so that was
significant, but they all stayed
in the area, and they helped out
with stuff, and even the ones
that werent stayed in contact.

helping build his social circle.

friends and people I wouldnt

Master bell ringer plays Moreheads tunes

UNCs band director
chooses one student
to ring the bells.
By Elizabeth Barbour
Staff Writer

When the tones of

Carolina Victory or Hark
the Sound emanate from
the Morehead-Patterson Bell
Tower after a UNC victory, a
student is playing the music
by hand.
The bells once rang through
a system of levers that had to
be pulled by the master bell
ringer, said Ben Lee, the current president of music fraternity Phi Mu Alpha.

Lee said now the system

is run through a 14-key electronic keyboard.
Every song that usually
plays is prerecorded, Lee
said. But theres a time when
if you want to play, you can
just go up there, plug in the
keyboard and rock out.
At one time, the master
bell ringer could only be a
member of Phi Mu Alpha, but
now Director of University
Bands Jeffrey Fuchs said he
chooses a student, usually a
senior in the music department, to control the keyboard
in the Bell Tower.
The current master bell
ringer then teaches the new
bell ringer how to operate the
keyboard. Each master bell

ringer holds the position until

they graduate.
Fuchs said duties primarily take place during football
games where the bells ring
before the game, and if UNC
wins, after as well.
Duties also involve events
such as commencement,
when the master bell ringer
must turn the tower off to
ensure the bells do not chime
during the ceremony.
Senior Erin Vanderjeugdt,
a member of the music fraternity Sigma Alpha Iota, is the
current master bell ringer.
Vanderjeugdt said she
views the job as an honor.
I didnt realize how humbling of an effect it would be
until I got to play my first

note, she said.

Even though the Bell
Tower is one of UNCs most
recognizable landmarks,
Vanderjeugdt said there is not
much maintenance on a dayto-day basis.
It pretty much runs itself,
she said.
Fuchs said special
requests for songs must
be approved, and many
requests are denied, but the
bells often chime for funerals, the birthdays of important alumni and significant
events, such as the nationwide ringing of bells after
the events of Sept. 11, 2001.
Songs played in the Bell
Tower have to be altered
because they can only be

I didnt realize how humbling of an effect it

would be until I got to play my first note.
Erin Vanderjeugdt
Current master bell ringer

played through 14 different

tones, Lee said.
You basically only have
one key you can play things
in, so you might hear something different that the band
plays ... it might sound a
little bit different on the Bell
Tower, just how we have to
change the key, he said.
Rumors of students sneaking into the tower and playing
songs that deviate from the
typical UNC football songs
have spread around campus,

Lee said.
There are definitely
rumors of people going up
there late at night, just playing a bunch of random stuff,
she said.
Vanderjeugdt said she has
never played a song that deviates from the typical set list,
but she has also heard of students playing their own songs.
Everyone hears it, so use
it wisely.

the remainder of the contest,

and a VCU goal with less than
17 minutes left was the only
hiccup in an otherwise dominant UNC victory.

hard above me and I couldnt

save it, Heaberlin said.
Before the goal, North
Carolina gave up the ball in
Dukes half and was unable
to recover, allowing the Blue
Devils to take a lead it held
for the rest of the game.
They were all over us,
played with a really wonderful intensity and basically
deserved to be in a position to
be up a goal, Dorrance said.
The Tar Heels have now
dropped three matches in a
row for only the second time
in the programs 37-year
history, and UNC has been
unable to establish dominant
play in the first half of all
three games. The first-half
goal and the loss were
direct consequences of this
trend.
But Dorrance said in spite
of their losses, the Tar Heels
have consistently played better than their competitor in
the second half. It has only
been the first half where
North Carolina has struggled
to challenge their opponents.
Like previous games, the
Tar Heels put more pressure
on Duke in the second half,
out-shooting the Blue Devils
10-6. But they were unable to
answer Dorseys goal.
We were obviously the
better team in the second
half, and we just couldnt get
anything done, said senior
defender Paige Nielsen.
Dorrance noted he was
proud of how his team played
in the second half, but he said
the team has to work on starting the game aggressively.
Lately, the Tar Heels have
failed to establish this early
intensity. And it has led them
to taint their once-undefeated
record.
You can see that we arent
working as hard as (in) the
other games in the first 15
minutes, Nielsen said.
When we work hard in the
first 15 minutes, we take over
the game ... You need to give
everything out on the field
and were just not seeing that
in the first half.

possessions before tying the

score at 7 on a 57-yard touchdown catch by Mack Hollins.
Hood received only one
carry on UNCs next drive,
which concluded with a
13-yard rushing touchdown by
Williams. But Hood capitalized on his next opportunity.
On the Tar Heels next possession, the halfback ripped off
back-to-back runs of 29 and
36 yards on his way to the end
zone. The two-play touchdown
drive lasted only 21 seconds.
(The offensive line) took
out the linebacker, and I was
able to bounce it and take
it to the second level, said
Hood of his touchdown run.
Once I got to the second
level, their safeties didnt
really look like they wanted to
come down on me too much.
So you make one guy miss,
and you get to the end zone.
As impressive as Hood was,
he only received three more
handoffs the rest of the game.

Quotable
We were a little sluggish
early on, but Im pleased with
how we came out in the second half. It was a really good
weekend for the Tar Heels.
Coach Karen Shelton on
her teams performance on
Sunday.

Notable
With UNCs victory on
Sunday, Shelton earned her
600th career win, making
her the second Division I
coach to reach the prestigious milestone. In her 35
seasons as the Tar Heels
head coach, she has a record
of 600-151-9.

point for the Tar Heels.

Fricanos effort helped
UNC (9-8, 6-2 ACC) sweep
Miami (25-15, 25-21, 25-16)
after North Carolina dropped
a five-set match versus No.18
Florida State on Friday.
The redshirt sophomore
registered six kills against
the Hurricanes (12-6, 5-3
ACC), which tied for second on the team. In Fridays
match against the Seminoles,
Fricano led the team with a
career-high 15 kills.
Fricano said she has been
working on increasing her
speed, particularly with her
arm swing.
This weekend, something
me and Coach (Joe) Sagula
have talked about is being
aggressive with my approach,
Fricano said. It seems that
I get better swings that way,
and make it more dynamic
and that just gives me more
height to hit it over blockers.
In the game versus Florida
State, Fricano had two blocks
and was third on the team with

the first 6:48 of the second half,

which helped grow their lead
to a comfortable five goals.
7: In seven games this
season, the Tar Heels have
managed to score at least
five goals. Entering Fridays
match, North Carolina
ranked second in the nation
in scoring average with 4.58
goals per game.
5: Five different UNC players scored goals in Sundays
a .205 hitting percentage. On
Sunday against the Hurricanes,
she posted a .200 hitting percentage and five blocks.
Sagula said Fricano is a
young player, still learning the
game, and that the key for her
is to remain consistent and
disciplined. He believes she
can play an important role for
the team down the stretch.
Shes got such great potential, Sagula said. She just gets
better each time she plays.
And with 12 matches left in
the ACC, I expect her to help
dominate, both blocking and
hitting. When she gets after it,
good things start to happen.
Senior Victoria McPherson
who led the team with
seven kills against Miami
echoed Sagulas sentiments,
adding that Fricano is beginning to come into her own.
Shes really good when
she goes up hard and shes
aggressive, McPherson said.
So now she understands that
when she goes really hard,
she can put balls away and
become unstoppable.
For the season, Fricano
has 96 kills and averages two

victory over the Rams.

Coming into the game, 12 Tar
Heels had combined to score
62 goals so far in 2015.

kills per set the fourth

highest on the team. Since
Hayley McCorkle suffered a
season-ending injury on Sept.
18 against Michigan State,
Fricano has 69 kills.
Fricano said she needs to
improve on finding the correct spots on the court and
placing herself in front of the
hitter to secure blocks.
She believes her execution
this weekend as well as the
teams performance bodes
well for the rest of the season.
Even though we lost to
Florida State, we knew we were
in it, Fricano said. It showed
the fight that this team has.
And that will definitely
carry over for the rest of the
season.

But his contributions didnt

stop with running the ball.
With Hood by his side in
pass protection, Williams was
sacked twice and never hurried, even against the Demon
Deacons various blitzes.
Hes a physical back,
not just running the ball
but in pass protection, said
Williams, whose 12 carries
led the team and accounted
for 59 yards. When hes back
there, I know no one is going
to come off that side because
hes going to protect me.
In four games this season
against Power 5 teams, Hood
has rushed for 428 yards on
49 carries, an average of 8.7
yards per carry. But even when
hes not getting the ball, his
trust remains in the offense.
Im not really that worried
about it, said Hood of his
carries. I know my touches
are coming when they need to
come Anything thats happening out there is supposed
to happen for a reason.

WOMENS SOCCER

NORTH CAROLINA

By Blake Richardson
Staff Writer

The North Carolina womens soccer team was late to bring the heat
on Friday night, and the delay came
at a cost.
A slow first half set up No. 7 UNC
for its first home loss of the season,

a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Duke. It

was the first time the Blue Devils had
defeated the Tar Heels since 2005.
We came out a little flat, said
senior goalkeeper Bryane Heaberlin.
Duke was definitely aggressive off
the bat.
The Blue Devils (8-4-4, 2-2-3
ACC) ramped up the pressure as
the first half went on, while North
Carolina (11-3-1, 4-3-0 ACC) struggled to get into a groove.
We had lost some pressure in
midfield, Coach Anson Dorrance
said. We were sort of ball-chasing

and Duke was doing a good job

pinging it.
Under this slackening pressure,
the Blue Devils found an opportunity and exploited it.
In the 44th minute, Duke sophomore midfielder Ashton Miller
bypassed the UNC back line with
a long pass to sophomore forward
Imani Dorsey, who sent the ball into
the top of the net to award the Blue
Devils with the only goal of the game.

Elijah Hood knows his chances will come

The sophomore ran for
101 yards on only 8 carries
in Saturdays contest.
By Pat James
Sports Editor

The North Carolina football team

rushed the ball 33 times during
Saturdays 50-14 dismantling of Wake
Forest. UNCs best running back
received only eight of those carries.
But for Elijah Hood, the Tar Heels
sophomore tailback, eight carries
were all he needed to assert his dominance against the Demon Deacons.
Making the most of his limited
opportunities, Hood rushed for 101
yards and a touchdown, averaging
12.6 yards per carry.
Hoods stats dwarfed those of
any other player who ran the ball on
Saturday. But even when Coach Larry
Fedora was asked about his halfbacks performance, he referenced
Hoods few touches unprompted.
The guy plays hard, runs hard
and does a great job in protection.
You ask anybody on the team, and

hes just a great teammate, Fedora

said. He doesnt care if he carries
the ball or not.
For much of the past week, Hood
and the rest of the Tar Heels heard
about Wake Forests defense. Ranked
No. 15 in the nation in total defense
entering Saturdays contest, the
Demon Deacons possessed the best
defense UNC had faced this season.
And on the Tar Heels opening
drive, the UNC coaching staff made
sure the ball was in Hoods hands. The
sophomore touched the ball on North
Carolinas first three plays from scrimmage and tallied 32 total yards.
Marquise Williams threw an
interception on the fourth play of the
drive, but Hoods three chunk plays
set the tone for the UNC offense.
After that, we knew we were
going to be able to move the football, Hood said. They kind of just
got hit in the face real quick with
those three touches, like, Oh, wow,
these guys are coming hard.
But 11 plays and a quarter passed
before Hood touched the ball again.
The offense muddled through two

VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH 1
By Will Bryant
Staff Writer

The No. 3 North Carolina field

hockey team pushed its win streak
to nine with a 5-1 victory against
Virginia Commonwealth on Sunday in
Richmond, Virginia.
But unlike Fridays defensive struggle

against Duke, which UNC won 2-1, the

contest against VCU (4-10) was in favor
of the Tar Heels (13-1, 4-1 ACC) from the
opening whistle.
A plethora of chances in the opening
moments led to a goal by Lauren Moyer
12 minutes in to give UNC an early
advantage.
Throughout the first period, the Tar
Heels created numerous chances but
managed only one more score before
half. Malin Evert found the back of the
cage with less than 17 minutes left in the
first frame to give North Carolina a 2-0
advantage going into halftime.

While UNC challenged Rams goalkeeper Kendall Clifton with 10 shots in

the first half, it wasnt until after intermission that the Tar Heel attack began to
see all of its opportunities turn into goals.
Gab Major started the onslaught by
scoring just 51 seconds into the second
half. Casey Di Nardo followed, and then
Emily Wold served one past Clifton in a
wild six-minute span.
After the dust settled, UNC had a 5-0
lead with 28:12 left on the clock.
