NCAA
decision
divides
audiences
By James Tatter
Assistant Sports Editor

The accrediting agency made its

ruling some time ago and now the
NCAA Committee on Infractions
decision marks the end of a very
public, six-year process.
But the decision does not under-
mine the experiences of those who
coached, played and studied with an
investigation looming overhead.
Youre happy thats its over, head
football coach Larry Fedora said to
reporters on Saturday. But I mean,
dont think that we havent been
penalized.
Setting athletics aside, the aca-
demic integrity of the University was
called into question by regulatory
bodies. The status of alumni was
made a matter of public discourse.
And this attention did not go
unnoticed for graduated student-
athletes like Jawad Williams, a
member of UNCs 2005 national

championship mens basketball
team.
I was more pissed that some-
thing I worked hard for was being
questioned, Williams said in a
tweet. My degree meant more to
my family than the banner, that was
extra.
The lack of concrete or any sanc-
tions assigned to the University has
left some incredulous, frustrated
that the NCAA acknowledged aca-
demic improprieties but could not
address them through adherence to
its bylaws.
Gary Parrish, a CBS college bas-
ketball analyst, questioned the role
of the NCAA after the COI dealt out
its decision on the UNC case.
If your system wont allow you to
punish a school caught doing what
UNC was doing, your system is bro-
ken, Parrish said in a tweet.
Stewart Mandel, editor of The
All-American, an online sports pub-
lication, expressed his bemusement
at the infractions process. He cited a
particular passage as demonstrating
just how low UNC was willing to go
in its defense strategy.
A secretary grading papers? Not
a big deal, he said in a tweet.
Ive been numb to the whole
thing
Among the reactions to the rul-
ing, for some, there was cautious
relief.
The NCAA finding did not change
the organizations stance on what
exactly had occurred at UNC during
the period in question.
But it did offer closure for those
currently at UNC that they would
no longer be anxiously anticipating
any potentially severe consequenc-
es for the Universitys previous
transgressions.
Were grateful for this resolution
of a case about issues that ended
more than six years ago, Chancellor
Carol Folt said on a call with report-
ers on Friday.
Fedora said to reporters that its
good to be found innocent by the
NCAA.
I mean we dont have to worry
about that anymore, Fedora said.
We dont have to defend ourselves
anymore in recruiting.
Fedora, who took over the football
program in response to the allega-
tions and the departure of former
coach Butch Davis, made clear that

The cost of the University of North
Carolinas athletic-academic scandal
neared $18 million, spanned more
than six years and ultimately raised
more questions than it answered as
the NCAAs Friday decision has left
some wondering what it means to be a
student athlete.
Student athletes likely received
fraudulent credits, the NCAA
Committee on Infractions concluded.
It is also more likely than not
that North Carolina personnel used
the courses to purposefully obtain
and maintain student athletes eligi-
bility, said Greg Sankey, chief hear-
ing officer for the COIs panel, on a
call with reporters.
Despite this, Sankey said the hear-
ing panel could not conclude that
the University violated the NCAAs
bylaws regarding academic conduct.
Since 2014, the NCAA member-
ship has acknowledged the question
Raleigh and Charlotte populations are on the rise
By Michael Meeks
Staff Writer
As North Carolinas population
steadily grows, it is possible the state
will gain an additional seat in the
U.S. House of Representatives.
The N.C. Office of State and
Budget Management predicted
the states population will be over
12 million by 2035, a net increase
of nearly 3 million since 2010.
Mecklenburg and Wake counties are
predicted to be responsible for the
majority of this growth.
A large population increase could
result in greater representation in
the House, but the potential location
of this new district is unclear.
Jessica Stanford, a demographic
analyst at Carolina Demography,
said over 70 percent of North
Carolinas population growth has
been concentrated in the Triangle
and Charlotte area.
Were seeing a lot of growth
whether academic fraud occurred is
one appropriately answered by insti-
tutions based on their own academic
policies, the panels decision said.
The decision is not an endorse-
ment of the Universitys conduct
or the situation, Sankey said in
response to a reporters question.
The panel did fault a former
department chair and a former sec-
retary at UNC with failing to coop-
erate with the investigation.
Not proud but not in violation
The COI did not conclude that the
University lacked institutional control.
While the university admit-
ted the courses failed to meet its
own expectations and standards,
the University maintained that the
courses did not violate its policies at
the time, the panels decision said.
UNC Chancellor Carol Folt said
she was not surprised by the cases
resolution, though she said Friday
was not a day of celebration.
in the suburbs surrounding these
areas, so smaller towns in Wake
County have been growing quite a
bit, such as Zebulon, Holly Springs
and Rolesville, she said. Youre
even seeing this growth trickling
into rather rural areas that are in
the proximity of the Triangle. Stem
in Granville County was quite small,
but in the last year it grew by almost
100 people, which is a lot for it, and
its about 25 minutes from Durham.
Stanford said since growth is
concentrated in the economic pow-
erhouses of the state, it is creating
jobs and improving North Carolinas
overall economic health. She said
some of the growth is driven by out-
of-state individuals.
People with an associates degree
or higher, 60 percent of them origi-
nally were born out of state, she
said. Were also getting migration
from other counties in the state that
are not as economically viable or
strong, and some individuals are
I appreciate the real scrutiny that
the NCAA put forward, but I think
this is what I expected to be the real
outcome, Folt said.
Bubba Cunningham, UNC ath-
letic director, said the Universitys
conduct did not violate any bylaw.
Unfortunately, sometimes the
behavior that youre not proud of
just doesnt quite fit into a bylaw or
rule or something, and thats what
weve been talking about for five
years, Cunningham said in a press
call in the company of Folt. Were
not proud of the behavior but we
didnt think it violated a bylaw.
Panel was troubled by
UNCs pivots
Still, Sankey said the panel was
troubled by North Carolinas shift-
ing positions about the report,
referring to the Universitys response
to the Cadwalader report, conducted
by attorney Kenneth Wainstein in
October of 2014.
choosing to move to the Triangle
and Charlotte as a way to find more
economic opportunities.
Stanford said the increased out-
of-state migration reflects a lack of
skilled workers in North Carolina.
The state is looking to find new
solutions to increase the level of a
skilled workforce in the state so we
dont have to rely on so much out-of-
state migration to have this skilled
workforce because so much of
it relies on people from Virginia,
Maryland, Florida, Georgia and
even as far as New York, she said.
This is herey is dummy text
right Stanford said it is still unclear
whether or not this growth will lead
to a new congressional seat.
I know we are in contention with
other states in the sunshine belt like
Arizona, I believe, that are also see-
ing very similar growth as us, she
said. North Carolina is in a positive
condition to be awarded a seat, but I
think its still a little too soon to say.
The panel said UNC initially
accepted its accreditors description
of its courses as academic fraud.
Despite these early admissions,
UNC pivoted dramatically from its
position roughly three years later
within the infractions process, the
panels decision said.
But Cunningham said the facts
were woven into a narrative with
which UNC did not agree.
On the day the Wainstein report
was publicly released in 2014, Folt
acknowledged the academic fraud
within the African and Afro-American
studies department was multifaceted.
It is just very clear that it was
an academic issue with the way the
courses were administered, and it is
clearly an athletics issue, Folt said.
Mary Willingham, a former learn-
ing specialist who studied student
athletes literacy rates, said she con-
tinues to be surprised by University
attempts to distance itself from the
SEE RULING, PAGE 5
Thomas Carsey, a political science
professor at UNC, said in an email it
is difficult to say how the map would
be redrawn to accommodate another
congressional seat in the state.
Partly it depends on where the
population growth is concentrated,
but it also depends on what the
Supreme Court says about parti-
san gerrymandering in response to
the case from Wisconsin they have
taken up, he said. Of course, there
have been other court challenges to
district maps in North Carolina and
elsewhere.
Partisan gerrymandering, the
drawing of congressional district
lines in a way that establishes a polit-
ical advantage, is a national problem.
Until more of these cases have
been resolved, we wont know the
criteria that will be used to evaluate
district maps drawn after the next
census, Carsey said.

its great. It makes following

we will have one of the most
talented rosters in the country.
As a fan of UNC, it was sad in
the way that a lot of news about
UNC is sad. It represented
the best outcome for UNC, in
a story of constantly lowered
expectations. At my most
optimistic, I think of UNC as
an aspirational idea, where the
best is always on the horizon. In
these moments UNC is always
about what it can be.
The first public university
in the United States constantly
trying to more truly represent
the public. A basketball pow-
erhouse where integrity and
on-court success are consis-
tently prioritized in tandem. A
home for southern progressiv-
ism where the front line forms
against racism, censorship and
poverty. Legendary figures like
Franklin Porter Graham, Bill
Friday and Dean Smith help
prop up this vision.
In my more dour moments,
I wonder why I always feel the
need to look back to justify my
optimism. In these moments
I question the mental leeway
I give the heroes of the past. I
dont see UNC as it might be,
but rather as series of depressing
headlines. A public university
with a student and faculty popu-
lation much whiter than the
state that will not take down a
Jim Crow era monument to the
Confederacy. A scandal-rocked
basketball program that got off
because it had good lawyers and
did not commit the ultimate
sin of actually paying revenue
generating athletes. A home for
conservative experimentation
where the newest restrictions on
student speech can be advanced.
This same reality exists when
I am feeling more generous,
but more and more I worry
that our triumphs really are
the exception and not the rule.
A
bout two years ago,
another iteration
of this board made
a vigorous defense of free
speech on campus. This
specifically addressed the
demands for the prohibi-
tion of speech sympathiz-
ing with the Confederacy
in the wake of a rally on
Oct. 25, 2015. This itera-
tion of the board, for the
most part, still adheres to
this position.
Unsurprisingly, an edi-
torial board of a campus
newspaper thanks our
nation implicitly every day
for the right to say what
we say without fear of pro-
hibition.
We, as a paper and
as a community, owe it
to ourselves to continue
vigilance in defense of this
constitutional right even
if it guarantees confronta-
tion with speech we find
beyond the pale, provided
that speech does not spe-
cifically incite physical
violence.
Attorney General Jeff
Sessions recently stated
that the Department of
Justice will be commit-
ted to the defense of free
speech on campus. He
specifically stated that
their objects of interest
include policies that:
Ban any act that creates
an offensive educational,
work or living environ-
ment, citing the arbitrary
nature of that criteria.
Limits free speech
to Free Speech Zones, collective right to speak
cel a speech even if there
is a chance it is met with
protest.
While we disagree with
other policies Sessions has
outlined since his install-
ment, we tentatively wel-
come this one. Too many
institutions of higher
education have taken
cowardly positions regard-
ing our First Amendment
rights. As we have stated
many times in these pages,
hard principled stances
among university admin-
istrators occur far too
seldomly, particularly if
there is any kind of finan-
cial disincentive. We do
understand some of the
challenges administrators
face regarding securing
free speech.
Between litigatory vul-
tures/attorneys, the poten-
tial for over-response
by campus security, bad
press, angry donors, liabil-
ity insurance claims and
premium rises, and of
course, pesky angry stu-
dents, all the incentives
are there for administra-
tors to lay a velvet fist
down on the often messy
and ugly exercise of the
First Amendment. And
much like rather gauche
velvet can do, policies and
actions limiting speech
have slowly drawn over
many schools as a soft yet
smothering blanket.
We again tentatively
welcome Sessions and the
DOJ in protecting our

Into the Wild links audience to the outdoors
By Sophia Wilhelm
Staff Writer
The Monti and Townsend
Bertram & Company hosted
their fourth annual Into the
Wild event on Friday night
at the Forest Theatre to cel-
ebrate the outdoors.
The event featured five
people who shared their per-
sonal stories of braving the
elements and what it means
for them to be in the wild.
There were also food trucks
and a performance by local
artist Ella Bertram.
I think this event is one
that brings a lot of people
together from different parts
of the Triangle, being under
the stars for a really magical
night of listening to peoples
stories, said Betsy Bertram,
the community outreach
coordinator for Townsend
Bertram & Company.
She said she called Jeff
Polish, executive director of
the Monti, four years ago and
asked if he wanted to create
an event that includes com-

has planned Carnaval since
this summer and has worked
with the cultura committee

ries about the outdoors.
We were a natural fit
for them because they love
going out into nature and the
outdoors, and we love to tell
stories, so why dont we tell
stories about going out into
nature, Polish said.
All proceeds went to
Learning Outside, a non-
profit committed to giving
children experiences in the
outdoors.
Polish said part of the rea-
son he thinks Into the Wild is
an important event is because
people havent been investing
their time in the outdoors as
much as they should.
I really believe that we
need to celebrate whats real,
and whats real are the won-
derful places that this state
has to offer and the stories
that surround those places,
he said.
Bertram handles the event
logistics, such as lighting and
marketing, while Polish pre-
pares the storytellers.
The cool thing about this
event is that we both have
very different customer bases,
based. She estimates the event
cost was $500, and some of
the performers provided their
services free of charge.
Most people were gener-
ous in our community, she
said. They really want to help
celebrate Latinx Heritage
Month and theyre willing to
perform to celebrate the cul-
ture and the beauty of it all.
Among the performers were
El Pueblo Salvadoreo, Omega
Phi Beta, Qu Rico and Flor y
Canto. The performers dem-
onstrated dances from various
countries and cultures, includ-
ing indigenous cultures.
My twist on Carnaval focus-
es on our culture, but also has
an emphasis on our roots, she
said. To be Latino is a mix
you arent just one thing. Many
people have indigenous roots.

but they come together and
really enjoy this event and
its a great way for both of us
to expose what we do to new
customers and new markets,
Bertram said.
Don Basnight, one of
the events storytellers, has
worked in sales for over 20
years. His love for reading,
and some encouragement
from his family, motivated
him to participate.
I got encouraged to try
writing, so Ive written a
few stories, and Ive always
enjoyed telling stories to my
nieces and nephews and stuff
like that, he said.
Some of his stories are
inspired by his relationship
with a cousin who passed
away in an accident. These
stories center around camp-
ing, boating and fishing
adventures.
The underlying part of the
story was about our love and
relationship to each other and
our shared experiences into
the wild, he said.
Into the Wild has grown
since its first year. This year,
last year. Restrepo said he
was proud of how Carnaval
has grown.
Its actually gotten a little
bit bigger, because weve
involved more people and
more organizations, he said.
Restrepo said around 300
people attended the event this
year, the largest crowd theyve
had. He credits the high turn-
out at Carnaval to CHisPa
involving more community
members and organizations
than in past years.
He said the cultura com-
mittee is proud to have more
families attend Carnaval this
year because it brings the
Latinx community together at
UNC, a place where students
may not feel their culture
is represented. He thinks
Carnaval can help increase
the Latinx student population
at UNC.

North Carolina loses an uphill battle
Weve got
to find a
way to get
over the
hump.
FOOTBALL
VIRGINIA20
NORTH CAROLINA 14
By Kirk Meyer
Senior Writer
There was no mistak-
ing the frustration in Larry
Fedoras voice.
For the sixth time in seven
games this season, the head
coach stood in front of the
media trying to explain or
make sense of his North
Carolina football teams loss.
Weve got to find a way to
get over the hump, he said.
Somebodys got to step up
in a key situation and make
a play.
In Saturdays 20-14 loss
to Virginia (5-1, 2-0 ACC)
the Tar Heels had plenty of
opportunities but came up
short repeatedly some-
times by a matter of inches.
Perhaps the closest call for
UNC (1-6, 0-4 ACC) came in
the fourth quarter, right in
front of the Tar Heels bench.
With Virginia leading 20-14
and driving in UNC territory,
linebacker Cayson Collins
delivered a hit on Cavaliers
running back Chris Sharp
and knocked the ball loose.

Late Night With Roy was
packed with fun, sentiment
and Luke Maye bricking the
re-enactment of his own, his-
toric shot twice.
Here are the top 10
moments from Fridays event.
10. Welcome to UNC,
Janelle Bailey.
The first-year post player
impressed in the UNC
womens basketball teams
Blue and White scrimmage
on Friday. Bailey dominated
the paint, thanks to quick
feet and pump fakes, and she
scored with ease over smaller
defenders.
Her best move came in the
post when she head-faked to
the left, spun right and swiftly
converted a layup. Bailey is
expected to impact a Tar Heel
team that did not have much
of an interior presence last
year.
Michael Carter excels in third quarter of UNCs loss
By Chapel Fowler
Sports Editor
With 10 minutes remain-
ing in the third quarter of
a one-score game, Michael
Carter lined up to the right of
Brandon Harris and saw the
look.
As two Virginia lineback-
ers inched closer to the line
of scrimmage, almost on the
backs of the crouching defen-
sive linemen in front of them,
the Cavaliers defense looked
familiar.
The North Carolina foot-
ball team had practiced
against the exact same blitz
in Fridays walkthrough in
Kenan Memorial Stadium.
When Carter took a handoff
during that drill, he attacked
the wrong gap.
Hey, its not going to be
there, running backs coach
DeAndre Smith told his first-
year tailback. Its going to be
here.
Now, Carter had a chance
to go where Smith wanted
him to. Virginia led 10-7 as
Harris took the snap and held
UNC cornerback M.J.
Stewart scooped up the
fumble and streaked down
the field with the go-ahead
touchdown in his sights, only
to be brought back by the ref-
erees whistles. Stewart then
chucked the ball downfield in
frustration.
The officials correctly ruled
Stewart had one foot out of
bounds when he recovered
the ball. Instead of an easy
touchdown for the Tar Heels,
Virginia kept possession and
two plays later converted on
a fourth and two, keeping its
drive alive and the ball out of
UNCs hands.
Fedora saw this close call
as simply another example of
the little things not going
UNCs way, but Stewart
blamed himself for being in
the wrong place albeit by
just a few inches.
I kind of knew I was close
to the sideline but I thought I
was in bounds, he said. Thats
a missed big opportunity on
my part. Ive got to have a little
better football IQ and know
where I am on the field.
Missed tackles also plagued
the Tar Heels defense
throughout the game, with
none more glaring than the
two on Olamide Zaccheaus
81-yard catch-and-run touch-
down to give Virginia the lead
for good at the start of the
fourth quarter.
After catching a short out
route from quarterback Kurt
Benkert, Zaccheaus broke
free from safety Myles Dorns
attempt, and then shrugged off
Stewart as he dashed down the
sideline and into the end zone.
Safety J.K. Britt didnt
make excuses for the defense
allowing another of what
it calls catastrophic plays,

8. Seventh Woods show-
ing assertiveness.
Sure, it was only the Blue
and White scrimmage, but
sophomore guard Seventh
Woods oozed confidence
Friday night. Woods is
expected to take over Nate
Britts role of back-up point
guard this season.
Teammate Kenny Williams
noted Woods enhanced con-
fidence.
Weve seen him dunking

said. His confidence is sky-
high right now and hopefully
he keeps that up. He can be a
big part of the season for us.
it to Carters stomach while
he stared an intentionally
unblocked Virginia rusher
in the eyes. The quarterback
waited until the last moment
to finally relinquish the ball
to his running back.
With the ball tightly tucked
under his left arm, the 5-foot-
9, 195-pound Carter saw the
hole Smith wanted him to hit
in Fridays walkthrough. It
was hard to miss offensive
linemen Bentley Spain and
Nick Polino had made quick
work of the two blitzing line-
backers.
I was like, Oh yeah. To the
crib, Carter said. This ones
going all the way.
Carter went untouched up
the left sideline for a 47-yard
touchdown. The score put
UNC up, 14-10. It was the
Tar Heels first lead in a game
since the third quarter of a
Sept. 23 game against Duke.
It wasnt his first touch-
down of the game, either. On
UNCs first third-quarter pos-
session, Carter took a shotgun
hand-off to the outside and
danced behind the line of

which have become common-
place this season.
We just have to tackle, he
said. We had a couple guys in
position to make the play, and
they just didnt make it.
Despite these defensive
miscues, the Tar Heels still
had an opportunity to win,
driving in Virginia territory
with under two minutes left.
7. Maye with the cameo?
The Tar Heels spent part
of the night recreating the
most memorable shots of the
Tar Heel basketball programs
history. The last one on the
list was Mayes shot against
Kentucky that sent North
Carolina to the Final Four.
Maye had two opportu-
nities to make the shot on
Friday, and he missed them
both.
Hey Luke, Ill take the
one you made last year, said
Kenny Smith, the host of the
Late Night With Roy festivi-
ties. Im glad you missed this
one.
6. Theo being Theo.
Senior Theo Pinson was
the last member of the 2017-
18 squad to be introduced
over the PA system.
The fun-loving senior took
two steps out of the foggy
entrance and went back into
the tunnel. After a few sec-
onds, Pinson emerged with
scrimmage for a split second.
He decided to cut to the
inside of the pulling guard in
front of him.
We had some great block-
ing on the perimeter, he said.
I had to break an arm tackle.
As a running back, thats an
expectation. After that, I saw
green grass.
As a Virginia safety gave
chase, Carter tried to look
up at the stadiums jumbo-
tron and use it to maneuver
around the defender. He
was eventually tackled at
Virginias 11-yard line after
running for 56 yards. He
scored two plays later on a cent of UNCs total offensive
one-yard carry up the middle,
but he knew he wasnt off the
hook.
From my family, Im going
to get some backlash for get-
ting caught, he said after the
game. Because finishing the
run is a big deal.
At this point in the inter-
view, he looked to his brother,
Dwayne Carter II, who was
waiting in the corner of the
room while his little brother
finished up with the media.
But UNC came up short once
again when quarterback
Brandon Harris was sacked
on fourth and eight, effec-
tively ending the game.
Harris was brought down
by his facemask, but the
play went uncalled. Neither
Fedora nor Harris blamed
the officials for missing the
penalty, but the no-call served
the 2017 national champion-
ship trophy.
He circled the court, rais-
ing his arms and dancing
with the hardware. Theres no
denying: Pinson knows how
to make his presence known.
5. Upperclassmen taking
it old-school?
To commemorate the
teams redemption tour, the
nights host introduced a
fitting song, a take of Salt-N-
Pepas Push It performed by
the teams upperclassmen and
the UNC dance team.
Pinson, Maye, Joel Berry
II, Aaron Rohlman and
graduate transfer Cameron
Johnson sported wigs of dif-
ferent lengths and colors in
the dance routine.
4. Andrew Platek brings
flair to UNC.
Plateks first shot as a Tar
Heel went just as planned.

Dwayne acknowledged him
with a nod. Had Michael
prepared a comeback for the
imminent trash talk?
He laughed and shook his
head: Im not going to have
one.
North Carolina is 1-6 this
season and winless in the
ACC, but Carters perfor-
mance was one positive to

So we kept him in there and

a joyful personality. Fedora
commended his work ethic
and attitude, adding that
