UNC AND TOWN READY EBOLA RESPONSE
Orange County
Health experts
prepare for
Ebola cases
By Hannah Jaggers
Staff Writer
After the Ebola virus garnered international attention for months, a scare at
Duke University Hospital has some in
the Triangle worried. While local health
officials are prepared for the worst, they
say the virus is not a threat to people in
Orange County.
Ebola is a communicable disease,
an illness caused by infectious agents
that are spread through either direct or
indirect contact of an infected person or
animal to someone else.
“First of all, people wisely are
afraid of communicable diseases,” said
Dr. Myron Cohen, chief of the UNC
Division of Infectious Diseases and
director of the UNC Institute for Global
Health & Infectious Diseases.
“It is not a new idea for our species to
be afraid.”
Stacy Shelp, spokeswoman for the
Orange County Health Department,
said the department’s goal is to be prepared to keep residents as safe as possible.
“The name of the game is being prepared,” Shelp said. “You definitely don’t
want to be reactionary.”
A man who had developed a fever
after returning from Liberia was admitted to Duke University Hospital on
Nov. 2. The following morning, the N.C.
Department of Health and Human
Services announced that the patient’s
preliminary test results were negative
for Ebola.
The federal Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention confirmed the
negative test result.
Shelp said the health department has
been preparing for a situation like this
since July.
“Orange County has actually been
working since July to not only develop
a plan but to actually train and put the

UNC scientists
collaborate to
find new Ebola
treatments
By Wei Zhou
Staff Writer
UNC researchers have turned to
unlikely allies for their help in finding
new treatments for Ebola — mice.
UNC researchers, along with
researchers from other institutions,
have developed a mouse model that
reproduces symptoms similar to those
of humans infected by Ebola. The work
was published in the academic journal
Science in October.
The study is a collaboration between
UNC, the University of Washington and
the National Institute of Health Rocky
Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton,
Mont.
Mark Heise, one of four co-directors
of the project at UNC and professor at
UNC School of Medicine, said the study
will contribute to testing therapies and
vaccines for Ebola and help understand
how genetic variation affects susceptibility to the virus.
“It gives us information on how variation in host genes affects susceptibility
to Ebola,” said Marty Ferris, also a codirector and a professor. “Nobody has
done that before.”
He said the study is a team effort,
bringing expertise from different places.
Fernando Pardo Manuel de Villena, a
co-director of the project and a professor, said collaboration is crucial to the
success of the research.
“That’s how science typically works,”
said Pardo Manuel de Villena. “You have
expertise from different aspects and different institutions, and not every institution has everything the same.”
Heise said they chose mice instead of
other animals to formulate the model
because mice are relatively cheap, and
over the years, research using mice has
led to the creation of more advanced
tools to understand the rodent’s genetics.
“Mice have been used for over 100

Schnur wins tennis championship Two Homecoming
acts haven’t sold
The sophomore is the first
indoor champion at UNC
since 1993.
Earl Sweatshirt and
Gloriana have sold about
700 tickets combined.
By C Jackson Cowart
Staff Writer
On one of the biggest stages in
collegiate tennis and on the cusp of
defeat, Brayden Schnur relied on
mental fortitude en route to a championship performance.
After nearly being eliminated in
the first round, the North Carolina
sophomore rallied back to claim the
ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate
Championship title, winning 6-4,
7-6(2) over Vanderbilt’s No. 9
Gonzales Austin at the site of the US
Open in Flushing Meadows, N.Y.
Schnur only dropped one set the
entire tournament, coming in the
first round against Columbia’s No. 8
Winston Lin — a senior playing in
his home territory.
But when Lin held match point
in the third set and threatened to
send Schnur home early, the Ontario
native ripped off three straight victories on his way to winning nine consecutive sets and the singles title.
“Coming from almost the brink
of losing to winning the whole thing
is great,” said teammate Ronnie
Schneider, who made it to the quarterfinals despite being added to the
tournament draw just days earlier.
“As the tournament went on, I could
see the confidence growing. I’m not
surprised at all that he won.”
Neither was Schnur, whose confidence helped him overmatch his
opponents.
“Coming into the tournament, I
kind of knew in the back of my head
that if I showed up for every single
match with the right attitude, I could
win,” Schnur said. “I know I can win
a lot of these matches if I just stay
mentally strong.”
Mental strength became even
more significant when physical
strength was waning. After compet-

ing in five matches over four days,
Schnur began to feel the effects of
such a strenuous schedule.
“It definitely takes a toll on the
body,” Schnur said. “(Sunday) morning I definitely wasn’t feeling the
greatest as I woke up. It (was) getting
a little bit harder and harder to wake
up and get the body going.”
And in that final match, it was
mind over body that propelled
Schnur to victory.

Board’s plan to draw more students to Homecoming concerts
might have backfired — so far, the
acts it booked for two separate
concerts couldn’t fill Memorial
Hall in one night.
As of Saturday, country group
Gloriana had sold about 250 tickets
for its show Tuesday at Memorial
Hall. Earl Sweatshirt has sold 450
tickets for his show Wednesday.
Memorial Hall fits about 900
students in its lower level. CUAB
president and senior Gabe Chess
said the student-run board was
hoping to sell out the lower level
for both concerts.
But Chess is hopeful the activities board will reach that goal —
at least with Sweatshirt’s concert.
“With Earl Sweatshirt, we feel
pretty good about the numbers,”
he said. “You know, students tend
to buy things at the last minute.
I’ve heard from a lot of people
who haven’t bought their tickets
yet, so I do expect those numbers
to pick up.”
Chess said he did not work closely
with Homecoming last year, but he
estimates that about 1,000 tickets
were sold for Wale and Ace Hood’s
performance in Carmichael Arena
last year. In 2012, J. Cole sold out his
show in Carmichael, selling about
3,000 tickets.
But Chess said even with J. Cole’s
sold out show, CUAB still had
about $100,000 in expenses after
accounting for the ticket revenues.
This is why the board decided
to play it safe this year, spending a
The greatest inspiration is often born of desperation.
COMER COTRELL
combined $50,000 on the two acts.
“Even in the years that we’re
selling out, it was at a super high
expense to students,” Chess said.
“If we’re only reaching 3,000
students, then it’s difficult to hit
those other 25,000 students who
paid the fee when we spend a
third of the budget on one event.”
Chess said hosting the concerts
on weekdays, rather than on the
same day as the Homecoming
game, may have played a factor in
the low ticket sales.
“Maybe students were hesitant
to go out on a Tuesday night to a
show,” he said.
To encourage students to buy
tickets, Chess said CUAB hosted
a scavenger hunt for tickets to the
shows on Twitter and sat in the
Pit to sell tickets.
CUAB board member and
sophomore Jesus Barreto said
students seem to like the twoconcert system.
“Overall, students seem really
positive and excited for both
Gloriana and Earl,” he said. “Some
students I’ve talked to are actually
planning on attending both events.”
But some students say they won’t
buy tickets because they just don’t
know who these performers are.
Senior Elizabeth Geyer said she
didn’t know the concerts were happening this week and that even if
she did, she wouldn’t want to go on
a school night anyway.
“I have several large assignments
due this week, and I don’t know
who either of the performers are,”
she said.
Regardless, Chess still thinks
those who do attend will have a
great Homecoming experience.
“There will be a lot of students
there, and the students who will
be there will have a really wonderful experience,” he said.

f you’ve ever been to Paris — and even if you haven’t — you probably know of the famous Eiffel Tower light show that happens every
night. It’s the Instagrammer’s dream pic, second only to pics of the
Old Well and the quad. Well, according to French law, taking pictures
of the Eiffel Tower light show is a copyright infringement. Meanwhile, taking pictures of the Eiffel Tower during the day is completely legal and
doesn’t break any copyright laws. Quoi? Yes, you read that right. Let us try
to explain. The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889, so its copyright has long since
expired, which means it’s in the public domain, so taking pictures of it and
sharing them is legal. The light show, on the other hand, was added much
more recently and is still protected by copyright. Makes sense, oui? Eh, non.

Theology, Ethics, Politics:
Three Challenges for Islamic Reform
How should Islamic teachings relate to the specific conditions
of modernity? Islamic Reform is the effort of Muslims to
reconstruct Islamic teachings and practice in modern times.
This lecture addresses the challenge of reforming Islamic
doctrines in three related areas: theology, ethics and politics,
with special reference to Shi`ism. It will be illustrated by critical
reflections on concepts of religious authority (the position of
the Imams), Shari’a as an ethical tradition in dialogue with
modernity, and the necessity of secularism in terms of
separation of mosque and state.

endowments
raise returns

Clear pedestrians,

In 2014, endowments recorded a
15.8 percent average rate of return.

Staff Writer
Budget cuts are handicapping universities
nationwide, but a study of the 2014 fiscal year
shows some post-recession growth.
Commonfund, an investment management
practice with clients in the United States and
Canada, and the National Association of College
and University Business Officers found in a preliminary study of 2014 that endowments have received
double-digit return rates — meaning universities
are collecting money on their investments.
Endowments are university investments made
to promote growth and ensure that schools have a
steady income.
The study, to be fully published in January 2015,
will eventually include more than 800 public and
private colleges and universities and foundations
that support university research.
Kenneth Redd, director of research and policy
analysis at NACUBO, said the organization’s joint
study shows that 2014 endowment rates have
bounced back from the recession.
The study recorded a 15.8 percent average
return rate in 2014, while UNC saw an endowment return of 12.1 percent in 2013.
UNC’s endowment fell short of its five-year
goal while exceeding its 10-year standard with a
9.2 percent return rate.
Still, UNC outperformed the 11.6 percent
median rate of other universities in a peer group
called the Cambridge Associates.
Michael Jacobs, professor of finance at UNC
Kenan-Flagler Business School, said investment
management requires consistently high-performing return rates.
“Looking at just one year (of data) can be very
deceptive,” he said.
Jacobs said for instance, the N.C. pension fund,
which heavily invests in bonds, might appear to
be suffering when interest rates rise. Because of
these fluctuations, there should be a measure of
comparison, he said.
William Jarvis, managing director of
Commonfund, said 2014’s results will be compared to data collected since 2002.
“The purpose of the report (preview) is to educate not only the participants themselves — so
you can compare and contrast to peer institutions
— but also to educate policymakers and the public
about what’s going on with endowments,” he said.
Jarvis said many universities are turning to
alternative, riskier strategies to diversify their
investment portfolios.
“Educational endowments were, in fact, the
leaders in investing in these so-called alternative
investments,” he said. “If you have many eggs in
many baskets, you have more sources of returns.”

Friday Night Lights called for bicyclists from the Chapel Hill area to show off their rides that were decorated with a variety of safety lights.
Carrboro hosts Friday Night Lights event for bike safety
By Zoe Schaver
Assistant City Editor
As the nights grow longer post-daylight
saving time, cyclists and pedestrians will
be even more at risk for accidents — so,
Carrboro street safety advocates are working to light the night.
The Carrboro Recreation & Parks
Department, Go Chapel Hill and the
Carrboro Bicycle Coalition collaborated to
put together Friday Night Lights on Nov.
7, an event where cyclists and pedestrians
could collect free lights for nighttime visibility and join in on a walk and bike ride.
The event also featured a contest for the
best-lit cyclists and pedestrians, the best use
of reflective material by a cyclist or pedestrian and the best tips for commuting cyclists.
“We’re tired of seeing people out there
who are not visible,” said Heidi Perry,
an event organizer and member of the
Carrboro Bicycle Coalition.
“The two recent fatalities involving bikes
— those both happened during the day. It
becomes even worse at night.”
The CBC has done bike light giveaways in
the past, but she said this was the first time
the organization had planned an event with
contests and a group bike ride.
Bess Pridgen and Olivia Fricks, students
at McDougle Middle School who attended
Friday Night Lights, said they bike to school
and to each other’s houses on a regular basis.
“Sometimes I’ll bike over to her house,
and it’ll be really dark. It’s really scary to
bike home without lights, because I don’t
want to get hit,” Fricks said.
Molly DeMarco, a Chapel Hill resident
and volunteer judge for the contests, said she
keeps an eye out for cyclists commuting from
work without bike lights at night.
“Every time I see someone riding in the
dark on (N.C. 54), I want to stop and give
them a light,” she said.
Perry said the event’s nighttime bike ride
was tailored to demonstrate the usefulness
of bike lights to the riders.
“On the way back, we went down some
dark, small neighborhood streets so they
could see how much the lights help them as
much as they help the cars,” she said.
“The ride was great — that may have been
the highlight of the night. The kids were hav-
ing a blast. They were waving to everybody
on Franklin Street, and everybody was very
well-lit, so everybody could see us coming.”
The Carrboro Board of Aldermen and
Carrboro Mayor Lydia Lavelle were invited
as guests to judge the event’s contests.
“It’s the perfect time of year for this event
because the time just changed — it’s going to
be darker out for longer and people need to
be safe,” said alderman Damon Seils.
Winners of the contest for most visible
cyclist were John Rees, who donned fullbody Christmas lights, and Steve Wismann,
who wired a laptop battery to LED light
strips to create a moving light show on the
body of his bike.
Perry said collaboration was a vital component of organizing the event, with the
Carrboro Police Department sending two
officers along on the event’s bike ride, Go
Chapel Hill providing extra volunteers and
Carrboro government officials coming out
to show their support.
“We’re very fortunate to have a very willing town,” she said. “It takes a village.”

Q&A with Berlin Wall
expert Konrad Jarausch
Sunday marked the 25th
anniversary of the fall of the
Berlin Wall. The wall, built on
Aug. 15, 1961, by the government of East Germany, remains
one of the most powerful symbols of the Cold War. Konrad H.
Jarausch, UNC Lurcy Professor
of European Civilization, spoke
with Daily Tar Heel staff writer
Jungsu Hong about the anniversary of the fall.
DTH: How is Nov. 9 a signifi-
cant date in German history?
KJ: At the end of the First
World War, around Nov. 9, there
was a revolution that kicked the
Kaiser out. In 1938, there was
Kristallnacht (“Night of Broken
Glass”), where they beat up Jews
and torched synagogues. Also on
Nov. 9, the Berlin Wall opens up
again, because of a combination
of pressure from the population
and a reform attempt of the
government that was bundled.
The Berlin party chief, who
announced it on television,
mumbled something because he
hadn’t been told what to say, and
when asked when it would be
opened said, “Immediately.” The
Western journalists interpreted
it as people could go through the
border right after the announcement, but it really meant that
people had to apply to cross, but
permission would be given more
liberally.

THE DAILY TAR HEEL: Could
you give me a brief rundown of
the wall being erected and its
original purpose?
KONRAD JARAUSCH: It was
erected in August 1961 as a
response to the great number of
Eastern citizens who were moving through Berlin in order to
get out of western Germany. It
was a safety valve, and the communist dictatorship wanted to
stop that, so the wall was built.

etal factors led to the coming
down of the wall?
KJ: There was a snowball
effect, and when the first
border crossing was opened,
Tom Brokaw of NBC News
was with a television crew
standing in front of the
Brandenburg Gate. All border
crossing points that had been
controlled were opened and
a gigantic party happened —
strangers were kissing each
other, flowers brought to border police, champagne bottles
popped, cars honking at each
other.
In Russia, (Soviet leader
Mikhail) Gorbachev was
asleep — two hours ahead
in Russia — so his assistants
didn’t dare wake him up, and
he woke up the next morning to an open Berlin Wall.
The only way to close it again
was bloodshed, but it would
be against Russian reform
attempts. The process was out
of control. People had already
taken over. The fall of the wall
wasn’t by famous opposition
leaders; it was by popular
process.
DTH: Do you have any personal memories related to the
fall of the Berlin Wall?
KJ: I was working on several
dozen books, and my son ran
upstairs and said, “Daddy, the
Berlin Wall has fallen!” and I
thought he was crazy, but my
son grabbed me by the arm and
took me to the television, and it
was there.
I was very afraid some fool
would shoot and Russian
military would start shooting.
Also in November 1988, we
had bought an apartment in
West Germany in the summer,
which turned out to be very
clever. I also chipped off pieces from the wall. I still have
some of the pieces framed in
the office.
DTH: Why is the fall of the
Berlin Wall a significant event
to remember in 2014?
KJ: It is an example (of )
when circumstances arise and
people can protest peacefully,
they can overthrow a dictatorship, and regime change is
possible even if it is completely
unthinkable.
Christmas is coming early at four middle
schools in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, where
faculty and staff will receive new Apple laptops in the coming weeks.
The schools are participating in the
Laptop Refresh Program, organized by the
Information Technology Department of
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools.
Starting today, Smith Middle School,
Phillips Middle School, Culbreth Middle
School and McDougle Middle School will
each hold a laptop refresh event, through
which staff members will receive, register and
learn about their new MacBook Air laptops.
Though CHCCS has offered Laptop
Refresh since 2006, the district is now making a transition to using Apple computers.
Ray Reitz, chief technology officer for
CHCCS, said the program started to ensure
teachers had computers so they could teach,
research and work on course development.
“It’s becoming much more common in
schools to ensure that the teachers and students have contemporary and up-to-date
tools to use in school,” Reitz said.
Reitz said MacBook Air laptops have
several integrated multimedia functions for
video, audio and editing.
“These features are important to many
teachers who compile their students’ work
so they can showcase them online and
offline,” Reitz said. “It’s really the (Adobe)
Creative Suite that the teachers value with
the Mac platform.”
He said the laptops are covered by a threeyear warranty through the program, which
is funded as a capital project in the district’s
budget, meaning money is allocated toward
student and teacher laptops each year.
Reitz said he estimated about 320 laptops would be divided out to the four middle schools participating in the program.
“This year is the year for the middle school
teachers to receive new laptops,” he said.
“Next year the district will be refreshing all
elementary school laptops. The following
year it will refresh the high school, and then
they will be back to the middle school.”
Jason Bales, instructional technology
facilitator for Culbreth Middle School, said
the main job of each facilitator is getting
teachers ready to hand in their old laptops
to exchange for new ones.
“What they have to do is make sure that
anything they want to keep and take to the
new laptop is saved,” Bales said.
Michael Byers, instructional technology
facilitator at Phillips Middle School, said
teachers preferred the Apple platform to that
of the PCs previously offered by the program.
“Teachers were told and allowed to state
a preference for a type of laptop, and it
was about 95 percent that voted for a Mac
laptop, so they are definitely with the program,” he said. “It’s been very well planned
and directed from the district, and they’ve
tried to make everything stepwise.”

Former football player Michael
McAdoo files lawsuit against UNC
Two pedestrians hit on Franklin
Street, taken to UNC Hospitals
Former football player Michael McAdoo
has filed a class-action lawsuit against UNC
for failing to provide him, and other athletes, with a quality education because they
were funneled to fraudulent classes within
the former African and Afro-American
studies department. The suit was filed in
Charlotte.
Two pedestrians were struck by a vehicle
at 121 W. Franklin St at around 11 p.m.
Thursday, according to Chapel Hill Police.
The pedestrians appeared to have only
minor injuries and were taken to UNC
Hospitals.

Tuition might go
up for in-state
By Ashlen Renner
Staff Writer
The topic of raising tuition
and fees for the 2015-16 and
2016-17 academic years stirred
a debate among members of
the Tuition
TUITION & FEES
and Fee
Advisory
Task Force
Friday.
“I think
it’s a sacred
commitment to be responsible
about tuition,” Provost Jim
Dean said. “But on the other
hand, you do have to run the
University.”
The task force suggests
tuition and fee changes to the
chancellor and the Board of
Trustees for approval and later
to the Board of Governors.
The task force proposed
a tuition increase of $225
for both in-state and outof-state undergraduates in
the 2015-16 academic year.
That amounts to a 3.5 percent increase for in-state
students and a 0.71 percent
increase for out-of-state
students.
The task force proposed
another increase of $233 for
undergraduates in the 201617 year.
In-state and out-of-state
graduate tuition would also
increase by $450 and $500,
respectively, during the two
years. That would mean a
5.18 percent increase for instate graduate students and a
1.74 percent increase for outof-state graduate students in
2015-16.
The task force was
wary about further tuition
increases for undergraduate
non-residents because in the
2014-15 academic year, the
tuition for those students
rose by $3,300.
“I think that was a very significant increase,” Dean said.
“It certainly must have been
one of the most significant
increases in tuition for quite
some time, if not ever.”
After considering the idea
of only increasing undergraduate non-resident tuition for
the 2016-17 academic year,
the task force decided to split
the increase over two years.
“I think, in general, if
people look at these charts
and see what looked to be
increases for residents and
not non-residents, then
people would worry about
that,” Dean said. “We are part
of a larger system with other
decision makers, and we’re
trying to make sure we pay
the appropriate respect to
their point of view.”
Despite the increases, UNC’s
tuition remains below the
average cost of its public peer
universities. But Steve Farmer,
vice provost for enrollment and
undergraduate admissions,
stressed that tuition should
reflect the University’s market
and not its peers.
“I think we are at our market now, and we are at our
market price,” he said. “The
higher non-resident tuition
goes, the less likely we are to
attract people.”
The task force’s plan
would generate an additional revenue of about $8.2
million for the 2015-16 academic year and about $8.8
million for the following
year. According to a presentation given at the meeting,
the revenue cannot be used
toward financial aid but can
be used to pay deficits, support pay raises for faculty
and staff and help with faculty retention.
The task force estimated
that a 1 percent pay raise for
all faculty and staff would
cost more than $3.3 million.
“Students understand that
we get the bang for our buck
at Carolina,” Brittany Best,
student body treasurer, said.
“We also understand that if
our favorite professor leaves,
we don’t like that. So if there’s
a way that we can keep professors here, I think students
will be willing to pay.”

plan in to action,” Shelp said.
“This is not new to us, and
we have been very actively
involved since the beginning.”
Leslie O’Connor, public
health preparedness coordinator with the county health
department, said in an effort
to combat the Ebola virus, she
has been conducting trainings for several of the health
department’s local partners.
“The communication
began with our local partners
back in July that this could
potentially become a real
threat and that we needed to
start practicing,” she said.
Orange County Emergency
Services has also been working to better handle the public’s concern over Ebola.
“Isolation and supportive care are the only treatments for the Ebola virus,”
O’Connor said.
“There is no cure for Ebola;
there is no vaccine. We’re certain that their plans are probably the best they could be for
this patient.”
For now, Cohen said isolation is the best option.
“Quarantines are not
meant to deprive people of
their rights but meant to create a much simpler situation
for the person,” Cohen said.
“The disaster is if someone
comes back, they’re wandering around, and a lot of
people get exposed.”
The CDC reports that
Ebola virus was first discovered in 1976, and since its discovery, outbreaks of the virus
have occurred intermittently
in Africa.
Cohen said Ebola is
believed to have originated in
a species of bat in West Africa
and became communicable,
or transmissible from one

have a lot of efforts towards

human to another, after the
virus infected a human host.
In 2014, cases of Ebola
virus began to accumulate in
West Africa, particularly in
Guinea, Liberia and Sierra
Leone. The World Health
Organzation reports that as of
Nov. 2, a total of 13,042 cases
have been reported this year
in West Africa.
The N.C. DHHS reports
that there have been a total
of four confirmed cases of
Ebola in the United States
and one death resulting from
the virus. No cases have been
confirmed in North Carolina.
Cohen said there are three
reasons why Ebola virus
evokes so much fear in the
general public.
“Number one: We don’t
know all the rules,” Cohen
said. “We don’t know everything about it. We haven’t had
an epidemic, so we’re learning
the rules as we go along.
“Number two: It makes
people sick as shit and is fatal
most of the time.
“Number three: People
will get much more comfortable once we have biological
intervention,” Cohen said.
“For Ebola, we’re trying to
develop pills very quickly. Our
only strategy for prevention is
quarantine. And it’s effective,
but it’s difficult.”
Cohen said although evidence suggests the virus can
only be transmitted through
direct contact, there are still
some concerns.
“Sometimes an infectious
agent can be transmitted on
inanimate objects,” Cohen
said. “The best example of
this is Norovirus. Ebola, one
of the concerns, is how much
can inanimate objects hold
the virus.”
Cohen said people should
recognize how hard North
Carolina has been working to
model is easier for them to
study how variation in genetics
affects susceptibility to Ebola.
Heise said the eventual
goal is to understand how
genetics affect other viruses.
“The longer-term idea is
that some day we will be able
to say that these genes that
increase your Ebola susceptibility — and they also maybe
increase the susceptibility to
other viruses — so you can
come back to not only one
disease but multiple at the
same time,” he said.

prepare for Ebola.
“The state of North
Carolina and hospitals of
North Carolina have been preparing for this,” Cohen said.
“Duke and UNC have been
working together with the
state on this problem.”
Cohen said the UNC
Center for Infectious Diseases
is always prepared for new
diseases to emerge.
“For people who do this
for a living, it’s never calm,”
Cohen said.
“We’re not allowed the
luxury of panic. We’re more
orderly about thinking this
through.”
The Orange County Health
Department might be taking
precautions against Ebola,
but Cohen said residents
should not be distressed.
“People in Orange County
do not need to be afraid about
Ebola.”
“I wouldn’t say that I
played my best match tenniswise, just because I was
physically tired, but I think
I played my best mental
match,” Schnur said. “You
just kind of find the mental
strength and the motivation
knowing that the tournament’s coming to an end
(and) there’s nothing that can
really motivate me more than
playing for a national championship.”
With the win, Schnur
became only the second
men’s player from UNC to
be named indoor champion,
and the first since Roland
Thornqvist in 1993.
“It’s a very prestigious
tournament to win — lot of
great players have won it,”
Coach Sam Paul said. “He’s
now among some really elite
players that have won that
tournament.”
Schnur was honored to be
mentioned in the company
of such prestigious winners,
but Schneider knows this is
only the beginning for his
teammate.
“His goal ultimately is to
be one of the top pro players
in the world,” Schneider said.
“This is just a little stepping
stone on the way.”
The champion’s mental
approach is still the same as
always, with his eyes set on a
much greater prize.
“Seeing the names of the
big champions that have
won previous years and how
they’ve done on the pro tour
is incredible,” Schnur said.
“To see my name up beside
those names … Hopefully
I can play like that on tour
soon.”

“… What you want to do is to be able to help
when the outbreak occurs.”
Fernando Pardo Manuel de Villena,
Co-director of UNC’s Ebola mouse model study
“It’s really not because of
the current Ebola outbreak
— it’s really to answer these
more fundamental questions.”
Pardo Manuel de Villena
said the project has been in the
works for two years and isn’t
a reaction to the publicity surrounding the recent outbreak.
“It’s not a good idea to start
a project when there is an
outbreak — you need to start
the project before because
what you want to do is to be
able to help when the outbreak occurs.”

he class of 2015 is a
few months into senior
year, and we’re all in
very different places. Some
have already landed a job
that begins immediately after
graduation. To you we ask,
“Okay, how did you do that?”
and “Why not me?!”
Some are scrambling to
figure out what to do with an
anthropology degree. To you
we say, “I’m gonna go buy you
another beer,” and, “Here, let
me give you a hug.”
I’m extremely jealous of those
with a direct path — those who
have a dream job, an open door
or even just a direction.
But the next step feels weird
and ambiguous to many of us. I
think about where I’ll be a year
from now, and it’s a completely
blank slate. I could be anywhere
doing practically anything.
(Okay, not anything… I probably
won’t be wearing excellent white
pantsuits, drinking red wine and
declaring, “It’s handled,” only to
shut my office door and watch
“Friends” on my computer all
day, but I’m still trying to keep
this dream alive. Email me if
you have an opening for a position like this.)
Small talk with friends, relatives and acquaintances changes from, “What dorm are you
living in?” and, “What’s your
major?” to that dreaded question — “What are your plans
after graduation?” Here are
some suggestions for those of
us who don’t have that answer
fully figured out.
Laugh violently. Then, allow
your expression to evolve from
crazed laughter to hysterical
crying. Put your face in your
hands and start muttering,
“Oh god, oh god,” over and over
again. This should buy you
some time to come up with an
actual answer while your face is
in your hands.
Start over from the beginning. Tell your friends and
family you’ve decided you’re
just going to hit control-Z over
and over again until you’re
back to the fifth floor of Craige
on move-in day.
Give the people what they
want! Just make something up
that sounds good, even if your
stories don’t match up. People
will just think you’ve been
changing your mind a lot. Tell
them you’re being really indecisive because you’re a Libra.
It doesn’t matter that you’re an
Aquarius. Times are desperate.
Most importantly, tell them
something that won’t provoke
any follow-up questions. Try,
“I’m backpacking around
Europe to really find myself.” No
one will want to hear about that.
Ellipses. This is a great tactic for when asked in a virtual
format, like Facebook messages
from fair-weather friends and
emails from your favorite aunt.
It’s ambiguous and will make
your plans seem more mysterious and alluring…
If worse comes to worst, you
could always just say you’re
doing something practical like
going to graduate school or
performing covers of TLC’s
“No Scrubs” to the audience
of fruit flies that hangs out in
your kitchen.
Or just be honest and say
you’ll be consuming copious
amounts of alcohol while
freaking out every time someone looks at your LinkedIn
profile (spoiler: It’s just
your LinkedIn-savvy friend
endorsing you for “public
speaking” again).

We can’t let this fly
Restricted airspace
in Ferguson culled
press coverage.
I
n August, the
Federal Aviation
Administration set
flight restrictions for the
37 square miles of airspace above Ferguson,
Mo., for 12 days.
The First Amendment
protects the right to freedom of press from government censorship. But the
FAA’s involvement in an
attempt to suppress media
coverage of Ferguson violated this basic and essential constitutional right.
At first the FAA restricted air traffic up to 5,000
feet in altitude, then to
3,000 feet. These restrictions were meant to allow
commercial flights to fly
through the city while still
keeping news helicopters
out, according to recordings
of conversations among
FAA managers obtained by
the Associated Press.
But multiple officials
denied the role of media
coverage in the decision to
create the no-fly zone.
St. Louis police Chief
Jon Belmar denied claims
that restricting the airspace above Ferguson was
to curb media coverage of
the protests following the
death of Michael Brown.
He claimed, instead, that
it was in response to a shot
fired at a police helicopter
yet could not provide such
an incident report.
FAA administrator
Michael Huerta said the
FAA could not exclusively
ban the media from covering Ferguson. Yet, in
recordings of conversations
between FAA managers, it
was explicitly stated that
the St. Louis County Police
Department was concerned
about keeping the media
out of the airspace.
An investigation of both
the St. Louis County Police
Department and the FAA
is warranted to address
these clear constitutional
violations, as is a broader
conversation about police
transparency.
EDITORIAL
The vocal network
Professors provided
much-needed
context for debate.
A
t a time when the
Wainstein report
has shaken this
community’s faith in oversight at the University,
the Progressive Faculty
Network should be commended for pushing a
view of the scandal with a
wider perspective.
The group has successfully challenged flawed
narratives associated with
the report, including the
racialized apportioning of
blame and an overempha-
sis of individual wrongdoing over institutional pressures like the unbalanced
relationship between academics and athletics.
They have also spoken
out about the lack of job
security for those who
challenge the University.
Critics have questioned
the legitimacy of this
fear, pointing to the vocal
nature of the Progressive
Faculty Network.
But those critics fail to
acknowledge the difference between speaking
out about an issue before
it is public knowledge and
afterward.
The fact that professors
were afraid to whistleblow about fraudulent
behavior before the first
reports about paper
classes emerged is apparent given the importance
of athletics to University
stakeholders.
The professors at this
university are in a unique
position to pressure the
system to behave ethically
in a way that is difficult
for transient students or
administrators negotiating
political, budgetary and
bureaucratic concerns.
The complaints of the
network should be taken
seriously and its work
celebrated.
COLUMN
Sports and the University
The threat of NCAA action highlights what we’d be missing.
T
he waiting is the
hardest part. A cruel
game of, “Will they,
won’t they?” The Wainstein
report has shed light on
some of the darkest corners
of the University — some
hidden on purpose, some
where others dared not peek.
The self-flagellation
was necessary for the healing process to begin, but
now, the ball is no longer
in UNC’s court. The wait
is on. How will the NCAA
respond?
There has been talk of
employing the seldom-used
“death penalty,” which forces
us to imagine life at UNC
without sports. The NCAA
absolutely should punish
UNC for its unethical actions,
but to misquote Patrick
Henry, “Give me sports or
give me death.”
Some might argue that
the importance of sports
in our society often has
destructive repercussions,
that it is what led to the
problems that plague this
University time and time
again. They’re not com-

pletely wrong. Sports can be
tragically overvalued, and
that can lead to dark places.
Recently, a Utah high school
quarterback received death
threats after his fumble lost
a playoff game.
But there is also a certain camaraderie that is
exclusive to sports. It’s there
when thousands of students,
pumped full of adrenaline,
rush Franklin Street after the
basketball team beat Duke
for the 133rd time in history.
No one cares who you are
in the revelry of a post-Duke
celebration. You’re not black
or white. You’re not Christian,
or Jewish, or Muslim or
Buddhist. You didn’t grow up
in poverty or wealth, or in a
city or the countryside. For
those few wonderful hours,
you’re hugging and kissing
and high-fiving anyone and
everyone you see, because
you all are one thing and one
thing only — Tar Heels.
When I think of home,
I think skyscrapers, family and the Braves. When I
think of my Dad, I think of
church-league basketball
and three-hour Sunday
phone calls spent commiserating about the Dolphins.
When I think of UNC, I
think the Old Well, Franklin
Street, going hoarse in the
warm Smith Center on
a brisk winter night and
sweating buckets in the student section at Kenan on a
blazing fall afternoon.
Sports are not integral to
keeping UNC’s high academic standard or accreditation,
but they are a vital part to
something equally as meaningful — UNC will always be
the university of the people,
and those people will always
be Tar Heels.
TO THE EDITOR:
The past failures of
the Faculty Athletics
Committee demonstrate
that the University needs
an entirely new athletics oversight body, openly
elected by faculty of
the College of Arts and
Sciences from their own
ranks. College faculty
should take charge of athletic oversight because they
teach nearly all courses
taken by student athletes.
The department most
tarnished by the scandal
was in the College. The
faculty who accommodated
athletes looking for paper
classes, free rides or easy
grades were in College
departments, including
the former Department of
African and Afro-American
Studies and others. The
scandal that corrupted
UNC’s academic integrity
disgraced the College, not
our schools of law, medicine or social work.
Unless College faculty
respond to this scandal by
exercising direct and vigorous oversight of the academic experiences of UNC
athletes, we will continue
to leave our reputation hostage to others.

Action aimed at
response, not report
TO THE EDITOR:
It has become clear that
we, members of The Real
Silent Sam Coalition, need
to clarify some aspects of
our recent actions regarding the Wainstein report.
Firstly, we are not disputing
the findings of this report.
Rather, we are focusing
our gaze on the implications of the sensationalized
media that focused on the
Department of African and
Afro-American Studies
instead of the institutional
level politics that allowed
this academic tragedy to
occur. The total absence of
any institutional oversight
of the AFAM department
demonstrates the inability of our institution (and
institutions nationally) to
value black studies, and, by
extension, black people.
The main purpose of
the rally was to provide
space for students to speak,
to express their feelings
about the Wainstein report
and their experiences as
students at this university.
It is no one’s place to tell
students with historically
marginalized identities how
to feel about what it means
for them to be a student at
this institution.
As active members of
the Carolina community,
we want these students to
be empowered to reclaim
space at this predominantly
white institution. The
incidents that occurred
on this campus cannot be
viewed solely as an isolated incident of academic
irregularity, but rather as
a culminating site of the
capitalist, racist and classist
sentiments that undergird
our collective experiences
as Americans.

Athletics, academics
share discipline
TO THE EDITOR:
Recognize how important education is for
athletes: All of us are one
injury away from obscurity.
Core skills are absent from
our graduates at great peril
to civil society. Discipline
is the hallmark of success, even for those born
gifted in brain or muscle or
coordination. Who is more
disciplined than the athlete
devoting a lifetime to honing their skills? “Iron butt”
Nixon in the Duke Library?
Athletics and athletes
require and deserve academic discipline and recognition and bachelor’s
degrees. The discussion
should be whether the
degree is a B.S. or a B.A.
The syllabus writes itself;
Is there such a thing as a
good foul?
How do you finance a
Little League team or a
university varsity?
What were the social
and economic impacts
of the Brooklyn Dodgers’
hiring Jackie Robinson or
moving to Los Angeles?
What are the psychological roots of home court
advantage?
What was the sociopolitical significance of Nelson
Mandela and the green
jersey?
What are the sexual and
social implications of controlled physical competition?
It is ridiculous to put
athletes into a separate box
from other social movers
and shakers and entertainers. Art, music, social science, business, economics,
politics, entertainment,
mathematics, ethics,
health, the humanities,
physics, science, et al. come
together in the human
spirit expressed in backyard sports and organized
athletics, modest and local
or world class, university or
Olympic or commercial.
The language of sports
is common in diplomatic
and commercial transactions worldwide, and the
binding capacity of sports
for all humanity may yet
overcome the divisiveness
of religious or political or
economic warriors fighting
outside the rules.

Among the districts open

Chapel Hill folk dancers build strong community
By Drew Goins
Senior Writer
Muffled music can be
heard coming from within
the brick walls of the Beth El
Synagogue Freedman Center
on Wednesday nights. The
tunes — traditional melodies
from Norway, Egypt, Croatia
and beyond — are unfamiliar
to the uninitiated.
Inside are the members of
the Chapel Hill International
Folk Dance Club, who
have gathered nearly every
Wednesday night since 1964
to celebrate the world music
and dances that have brought
them together for 50 years.
The group celebrated its
landmark anniversary this
weekend with an extensive
three-day reunion — part of
which took place in the Great
Hall of the Student Union.
“We’ve been working on
this since January,” said Ann
DeMaine, a member of the
group who, with her husband,
Bob, spearheaded the planning of the event.
Ann DeMaine has been a
part of CHIFDC for decades,
but her husband still has the
edge — he’s been dancing for
49 of the group’s 50 years.
Other dancers in the group
describe the DeMaines as the
heart and soul of the club.
Saturday’s event was, of
course, all about dancing. It
featured seven hours of participatory dances from the
group’s repertoire. Former
group members came from
all over North America to
coalesce for the reunion,
returning to Chapel Hill from
places as far as California and
British Columbia.
Margaret Clemen, a member who’s danced with the
group since 1968, said she
fondly remembers the bonds
shared with the group back
&74*#/
Destination
when CHIFDC danced at
UNC’s Presbyterian Student
Center, its first home.
She also said while the
group has evolved and
members have come in and
out, the connections have
remained unchanged.
“For me, it’s still the same
group it was when we were in
the Presbyterian Center,” she
said. “When people come back
for the reunions, it’s like they’re
coming back into the fold.”
Jeanne Sawyer is one such
member returning to the fold.
Sawyer danced with the group
from 1968 to 1988 before she
moved to the West Coast. She
now lives in California and
flew back for the weekend
reunion, at which she not
only participated in dances,
but also accompanied them
with fiddling and singing.
Sawyer enters the center
with her husband — whom
she met through folk dancing — to a round of applause
from old friends and fellow
members.
“It’s lifelong friends, and
we can always come back,”
Sawyer said. “When we
moved to California, we
had to not think about (folk
dancing) for, like, a year just
because we had to make new
friends.”
One member calls out that
the Scandinavian dances are
starting soon. Sawyer shrugs
off her purple jacket, nestles
a fiddle against her neck and
heads out to the center of
the room to accompany the
upcoming Swedish hambo as
other members join in.
Mary Chrestenson-Becker
began Scandinavian folk
dancing at 13. She said she
has since danced in every
time zone in the United
States, but she considers
North Carolina her home.
“The appreciation for this
type of dancing brings people
from all over together,” she
said. “It’s so beautiful because
these intricate steps are like
puzzle pieces, and it’s hard
to learn, but when you get it
right, it’s just effortless.”
As an independent, selfemployed tutor, ChrestensonBecker doesn’t have co-worker friends, so she turns to folk
dancers for fellowship.
Dan Oldman has been
dancing with the group since
the early ’80s — a newbie by
many of the group’s standards
— and he has been CHIFDC’s
treasurer for more than 20
years. It’s the only official
position in an organization he
calls “a successful anarchy.”
Now, he not only dances
with fellow members;
he’s joined dinner groups,
attended CHIFDC New Year’s
Eve parties and gone on an
annual beach trip with other
members for years. Looking
to the future, he’s planning
a move to Carol Woods
Retirement Community with
a large group of fellow dancers sometime within the next
several years.
When asked what his
favorite part of the group is,
Oldman seems to speak for
most members.
“I should be saying it’s the
dancing, but it’s definitely the
people.”
Oldman mills about for a
few minutes, catching up with
friends since seeing them last
Wednesday — or last reunion
— before he heads out to the
dance floor, clasping hands
with old friends to dance the
Port Said, the daichovo, the
Swedish family waltz.

The Daily Tar Heel
Q&A with Ph.D. student
and Jeopardy contestant
After taking an online
test and trying out in
Washington, D.C., Che Smith
was invited to be taped on
“Jeopardy!” in August. A
Ph.D. student in the Gillings
School of Global Public
Health, Smith made her TV
appearance Thursday.
The Daily Tar Heel staff
writer Katie Reeder spoke with
Smith about her experience.
By Mary Taylor Renfro
Staff Writer
DAILY TAR HEEL: Did you
grow up watching the show?
CHE SMITH: From a very
young age — I don’t even
remember, so I usually just
say five years old — any family member that turned it on,
I would sit and watch it with
them. I was always enamored
by the production aspect of it,
the fact that it was a TV show
and the way the questions
were arranged on the board.
Just everything on the show
fascinated me, so I would just
watch it whenever I got the
chance.
DTH: Is this something you
ever thought you would do?
CS: I actually made it to the
tryout process before, back in
2008. I tried out in Savannah,
Ga. After I didn’t make it on
that year, I wasn’t sure it would
ever happen, but of course I’ve
always wanted to be on there,
and I did reserve a little bit of
hope that it would happen.
DTH: How did your friends
and family react when they
found out you were going to
be on the show?
CS: Everyone was so excited. That’s the best word that
I can use, just super excited
— especially those family
members who have watched
Launch looks

entrepreneurs
COURTESY OF CHE SMITH
Ph.D. student Che Smith had the opportunity to compete on “Jeopardy!” in August. Although she
came close to making it on the show in 2008, Smith stated she “wasn’t sure it would ever happen.”
the show with me.
DTH: Did you study before
going on the show?
CS: I asked the casting
coordinators, and they said
the best way to study is to
watch the show. I made sure
to DVR the show, and I would
watch as many episodes as I
could. Because I was living in
Washington, D.C., at the time,
I would go to museums all the
time to study and just try to
absorb as much information
as possible.
DTH: What was the most
exciting part?
CS: One of the most exciting things was the announcer,
Johnny Gilbert, when he
came onto the set.
You just kind of hear his
voice all the time when the
show comes on, but you
never really get to see him, so
matching a face to that voice
was pretty exciting. And then
of course when we first saw
Alex Trebek walk onto the
stage, that was very exciting.
DTH: What made you the
most nervous on the show?
CS: Basically you don’t
know what categories you’re
going to get until you get on
the stage — so just not knowing what the categories would
be and whether I was prepared to answer questions on
those topics.
DTH: Did you meet any
other people on the show?
CS: You get to meet all the
other contestants that tape that
day, and you basically spend
the whole day with them, so I
got to know them very well.
Everyone was really excited
to be there. It’s really weird
because we all have this common goal of — we’ve always
wanted to be on “Jeopardy!,”
and that day happened to
be the day that we got our
chance to be on “Jeopardy!”
DTH: Did you have to keep
the results a secret?
CS: I had to be very limited in what I said about the
taping and the results, so it
was really hard to do that,
but there was still a lot of
excitement among my social
network.

Almost two years after
he became a part of Launch
Chapel Hill’s first class of business ventures, Jeff Henriod,
founder of Let’s Chip In, said
he appreciates the resources
he received from the program
— especially the space that fostered a collaborative environment between participants.
“The interactions with the
other entrepreneurs were really
helpful,” Henriod said. “People
who were all working on problems that were at a similar
stage — and you could augment and mentor each other.”
Launch Chapel Hill, a business incubator that aims to
support entrepreneurs, opened
in 2013. Launch is accepting
applicants for its spring 2015
class of ventures until Sunday.
Henriod said though he
decided not to pursue his business — a website allowing
people to split the cost of group
gifts — he gained valuable
insight from Launch.
“The first lesson I learned
was just how hard it really is
to start a company, and when
I do it, I want to make sure
I’m super passionate about
the idea,” Henriod said.
Dina Mills, program
manager at Launch, said the
incubator will accept six to 12
entrepreneurs into its 22-week
program. She said Launch usually receives about three applications for each available spot.
Launch requires applicants
to fill out an online application
and interview with a committee made up of local entrepre-

neurs and people affiliated with

Mills said admitted applicants have good ideas, a scalable business and an interest
in growing the local entrepreneurial community.
“The idea is to support
and develop high-growing
businesses in Chapel Hill
and Orange County that then
remain in the community and
support and grow and create
jobs,” Mills said.
Michelle Bolas, program
director at Innovate Carolina,
said Launch fills Chapel Hill’s
need for an affordable business
accelerator and provides startups with mentors, potential
investors and accounting and
legal advice.
“Before Launch, we had
to direct our companies to
Durham,” Bolas said. “For
those that want to stay and
contribute to the Chapel Hill
economy and be part of our
community, we want to make
that available, so Launch has
filled that need.”
Fred Stutzman, founder
of technology startup Eighty
Percent Solutions and a former
Launch participant, said he
appreciated the help.
“It’s given us a lot of networking in the community
and the ability to meet people
in the community, both advisors and mentors and potential employees; it’s given us a
place to start our business and
have the credibility of having
an office space,” he said.
“All of those things added up
to helping us grow quite a bit.”

WOMEN’S SOCCER: VIRGINIA 2, NORTH CAROLINA 0
Virginia stomps out Tar Heels’ attack
UNC didn’t score for
the first time since
Aug. 31 at Pepperdine.
By Andrew Tie
Staff Writer
GREENSBORO — North
Carolina sophomore forward Emily Bruder walked
off the field Friday at UNCGreensboro’s Soccer Stadium
at halftime after 45 minutes
of futile attempts to break
Virginia’s defense. No matter
what, the girl with a teamhigh five goals in four games,
couldn’t find one opening.
No. 4 Virginia (18-1-0,
9-1-0 ACC) controlled the
first half of the ACC women’s
soccer semifinal, taking a
two-goal lead while stunting
the Tar Heels’ attack.
“Usually with (Bruder),
she’s got enough pace and size
to make it difficult for defenses,” Coach Anson Dorrance
said. “The thing she declared
at the half is how much faster
(Virginia defender Emily)
Sonnett was than she was.”
Throughout the night, the
Cavalier defense stifled No.
5 UNC’s (12-3-2, 9-0-1 ACC)
forwards, leading to a 2-0 win
in the conference foes’ first and
only match of the year. UNC
hadn’t been held scoreless
since a 1-0 loss at Pepperdine
on August 31, coincidentally
the last loss for the Tar Heels.
“We knew coming into this
game their midfield was probably the best in the country,”
said midfielder Katie Bowen.
“They broke down our team
and were able to create the
chances themselves.”
No matter what attacker
Dorrance threw out from
his deep bench — Bruder,
Summer Green, Jessie Scarpa,
Amber Munerlyn, Paige
Nielsen — Sonnett, a secondteam All-ACC selection, and
her teammates intervened.
“I think their back line was
really good, a lot better than I
expected,” said senior defender Satara Murray. “They were
shutting down our players in
every moment of the game.”
Murray said the key to the
offense starts with the passing
from the midfield, but that
“They broke down
our team and were
able to create the
chances themselves.”
Katie Bowen,
Junior midfielder
was also held in check.
“Not having distributors
up to our front line hurt us a
little bit, but Virginia’s back
line did a really good job
with holding our forwards,”
Murray said. “Girls the size
of Emily Bruder, she’s kind of
hard to mark at times from
personally marking her in
practice, but they did a really,
really good job on her today.”
The lackluster offensive
performance from UNC
didn’t fit the much stronger
display throughout the regular season. Dorrance brought
up the fact that sports statistical group BennettRank rated
UNC’s offense as the fourth
best in the country adjusted
for strength of schedule.
“If we look at our attack,
I’m actually shocked at how

well we’ve done,” Dorrance
said. “Have we done it
through a superstar system?
No. We’ve done it through
grinding and having everyone
take their moment.”
Dorrance went on to explain
that Virginia controlling the
time of possession on offense
makes its defense so good.
“Even though that’s not
a defensive quality that you
would point out as, ‘This is
the way you defend,’ it’s actu-
ally a pretty good philosophy,”
Dorrance said. “If you can
keep the ball, that means the
other team doesn’t have it so
you don’t have to defend.”

SWIMMING: WOMEN 1ST PLACE, MEN 2ND PLACE IN DUAL MEET
Diving steps up for both men and women
By Caleb Waters
Staff Writer
When asked whether this
weekend’s meet at Louisville
was preparation for the
future of the season, North
Carolina swimming and
diving coach Rich DeSelm’s
answer was simple.
“It has to be.
“We won the women’s meet,”
he said. “It wasn’t pretty, but
we won it. We didn’t win the
men’s meet. The takeaway is
we have to be better for having
gone through both of those
experiences: a win and a loss.
We have to be better and better prepared next time out.
Otherwise we are not learning
from our experiences.”
The Tar Heels traveled to
Louisville for a two-day dual
meet against the Cardinals
that took place Friday night
and Saturday morning. The
women’s team, although
down by one point after
Friday’s events, went on to
win the meet 194-159, while
the men struggled throughout
the weekend, losing 220-133.
Junior Emma Nunn, who
took first in both the 500and 1000-yard freestyles,
said the team had to adjust
because the meet was unfamiliar territory for North
UNC B-teams end cross
country regular season
By Danielle Herman
Senior Writer
It was the last regular
season meet for the North
Carolina men’s and women’s
cross country teams, but for
many runners, it was their first
cross country race of the year.
Members of UNC’s
non-travel team competed
Saturday at the Adidas Three
Stripe Invitational at the
WakeMed Cross Country
Course in Cary. The varsity
squads took the weekend
off to prepare for the NCAA
regional, which begins Friday.
Neither team raced enough
runners to tally a team score
— there need to be five runners for each team to have
a score — but Coach Mark
VanAlstyne said he was happy
with the individual results.
“We really wanted to get a
look at some of our athletes
that were both redshirting
and running here unattached,
as well as athletes that didn’t
make the travel squad for
the ACC meet,” he said. “I
thought they acquitted themselves really well.”
Redshirt sophomore
Mitch McLeod led the
men’s team with a secondplace finish overall. Seniors
Braedon Koerwitz and Dan
Mykityshyn both placed in
the top 10, and senior Bryan
Noreen finished 16th.
McLeod was the only
member of the men’s team
that raced Saturday who
had also raced at the ACC
Championship, where he finished 71st in the 8K.
McLeod said he thought the
meet was a good opportunity
for those who had redshirted to
get a chance to compete.
“I guess as a team we did
alright. This unit that ran
today is kind of focused on
track now, just because we’re
done,” he said.
On the women’s side, sophomore Jill Hardies led the way
with an eighth-place finish.
Hardies redshirted last season
and hadn’t raced a cross country meet since the state meet of
her senior year of high school.
“It was definitely an adjustment getting used to the hurt
again,” she said. “But it was
good; I was happy with it. I
felt like I was mentally in it
the whole time.”
Hardies was followed by
junior Caroline O’Hea, who
placed 10th. Freshman Emma
Astrike-Davis — the only other
UNC athlete who competed
Saturday who had also competed at ACC’s — placed 12th,
and senior Kylie McCoy placed
20th to finish out the race.
“I was thrilled for Jill
Hardies and Caroline O’Hea,”
VanAlstyne said. “They’ve
worked really hard this year
and came up just short of
making our ACC and NCAA
squads, so to see them have a
good race and that their hard
work is paying off is nice.”
Hardies said she and other
members on the team wish
they could have had a few more
racing opportunities this season, but they are ready to carry
their training into track season.
“I think we’re all happy
with it, especially the girls
who haven’t raced at all this
season,” she said. “We just
need to keep the momentum
going, and we’ve had a solid
block of training during cross
country, so that’s very important to carry over into track.”
Carolina.
“It was a combination of a
lot of things, but I think most
of it was that in the events we
weren’t going to win, we had to
be two, three, four,” Nunn said.
“We had to get behind each
other and be enthusiastic and
not let it scare us because we
have had such an amazing season — it was bizarre not to be,
for once, gliding through it.”
Despite the men’s loss, the
divers pulled their weight and
won all of the events.
Sophomore Jack Nyquist
took first place in both the onemeter and three-meter, scoring
342.37 and 423.82 respectively.
Freshman Elissa Dawson had
the same results in women’s
diving, grabbing two firsts and
scoring 323.48 and 384.08.
Nyquist said having competitive teammates helps
everyone.
“Elissa Dawson and
Michole Timm are both
incredible female divers,”
Nyquist said. “They are
some of the best in the country, for sure. Seeing (Elissa)
have success, seeing Michole
have success, drives me to
want more.”
“Everyone is in it to win it,
for sure. There’s not a face on
the team that doesn’t think
they can make conference,
make NCAAs.”
DeSelm and Nunn both
stated that depth was a key to
the UNC women’s success.
“I think going into it we
knew that Louisville had a lot
of superstars, but I think we
were surprised the first day at
how much deeper they were
than we thought they were,”
Nunn said.
“Not that they were deeper
than us, but they were pretty
formidable.”
DeSelm said it made the
difference.
“On the second day, I
think our depth pretty much
overtook the competition,”
DeSelm said.
“Louisville is really good,
but we were just deeper. In
a dual meet, the depth does
count for a lot, and we were
able to come out victorious.”

Quarterfinal woes Cavs outpace UNC
No. 1 Tar Heels
continue for UNC in ACC tournament drop it in overtime
By Jeremy Vernon
Staff Writer
It was all too familiar.
Heading into the final 15
minutes of its match against
Louisville Sunday, the North
Carolina men’s soccer team
looked poised to move into the
ACC Championship semifinals
and extend its unbeaten streak
to a nation’s best nine games.
After a scoreless first half
against the sixth-seeded
Cardinals, 3-seed UNC came
out in the second half determined to claim the lead.
But late in the game, a feeling of deja vu began to fill the
air at Fetzer Field. And much
like it did in the Tar Heels’
2-1 ACC quarterfinals defeat
against Clemson in 2013, the
game slipped away, and UNC
found itself on the wrong side
of a 1-0 loss.
In the 76th minute, the
Cardinals’ Ricardo Velazco
intercepted a wary pass from
the UNC defense and streaked
down the middle of the field.
As Velazco continued his
run toward the UNC box, Tar
Heel defenders Walker Hume
and Boyd Okwuonu charged
forward but in the process left
a space for Ivan Gutierrez to
slip in behind.
After Velazco’s right-footed
pass traveled between the
outstretched legs of Hume
and Okwuonu, Gutierrez
found himself alone with
goalkeeper Brendan Moore
and calmly converted to
give Louisville a lead that it
wouldn’t relinquish.
“It was self-inflicted,” said
Okwuonu when asked about
the pivotal counterattack that
lifted the Cardinals.
“It was just one step up,
and it was a minor mistake,”
he said. “But one mistake can
cost you the game.”
In 2013, defensive miscues
sunk the Tar Heels in their
quarterfinal matchup against
Clemson, as the Tigers converted twice in the game’s
final 15 minutes to break
UNC’s heart.
Sunday, another blunder
overshadowed 75 minutes of
strong defensive play, and the
same feelings returned.
“They had some balls in
behind us, but we dealt with
them, and we didn’t really
allow them to do anything
dangerous,” Moore said.
“But you can’t do that for 90
minutes straight, and we lost
again because of it.”
The similarities don’t stop
there.
Senior Andy Craven didn’t
play in the 2013 game against
Clemson after suffering a
season-ending injury. Sunday,
Craven might as well have not
been playing, as the Cardinal
defenders held the star senior
to just one shot.
And much like in 2013,
Coach Carlos Somoano was
noticeably upset after a Tar
Heel loss. But, as Somoano
said after the game Sunday,
this wasn’t something that was
exclusive to the games against
Clemson and Louisville.
“I’m frustrated that we
didn’t win today,” he said.
“I’m frustrated that we didn’t
beat Duke, Notre Dame and
Wilmington. I’m frustrated
we didn’t beat UCLA, and
next time we lose a game I’ll
be frustrated too.”
“I don’t like losing, and I
don’t think our guys do either.”

Online Assistant Editor
GREENSBORO — For
Anson Dorrance, the No. 5
North Carolina women’s soccer team’s ACC Tournament
semifinal match against
Virginia was similar to the
classic children’s tale of the
tortoise and the hare.
But unlike the story’s
outcome, the tortoise didn’t
prevail on Friday at UNCG
Soccer Stadium, as the No. 4
Cavaliers’ midfielders ran circles around the UNC defense
en route to a 2-0 win.
“Trust me, today, a little
speed in the middle of midfield would have helped us a
little, considering we had my
turtles chasing their jackrabbits,” Dorrance said.
Both goals, which were
scored in the first 30 minutes,
were set up by UVa. midfielders Danielle Colaprico and
Alexis Shaffer. Colaprico leads
the ACC with 15 assists.
“We knew coming into
this game that their midfield
was probably the best in the
country, so I feel like they
were able to break down the
team and create the chances
themselves,” junior midfielder
Katie Bowen said. “All credit
to them. Their frontline and
midfield are class.”
At the start of the game,
the Tar Heels could not keep
up with the speed of the
Cavaliers’ midfielders, who
helped them dominate possession. They outshot UNC
8-2 in the first half.
Shaffer broke away in the
11th minute and sent a pass
to Makenzy Doniak, who was
waiting in between two UNC
defenders to finish and give
the Cavaliers a 1-0 lead.
As the Tar Heels struggled
to create chances, Colaprico
found Morgan Reuther,
who curved the shot to the
center of the goal, past the
outstretched arm of UNC
goalkeeper Bryane Heaberlin
in the 29th minute.
“Part of Virginia’s ability to
defend is to not let the other
team have the ball much, and
that was certainly the case in
the first half,” Dorrance said.
Despite being dominated,
North Carolina had its best
scoring opportunity with seconds to go in the first half.
Darcy McFarlane found the
ball on a corner from Amanda
Rooney and placed it perfectly
past the keeper — the only
problem was Virginia defender Megan Reid was waiting to
head the ball away.
“I think that would really
have turned the game had they
got that one before halftime in
that situation,” Virginia Coach
Steve Swanson said.
In the second half, the Tar
Heels were able to buckle
down defensively and prevent
chances — but the damage had
already been done.
“This pace that Virginia
was required to play at to
dominate us in the first half,
and then we continued that
same pace and by the second
half, Virginia struggled to stay
at that pace,” Dorrance said.
After allowing eight shots in
the first half to the Cavaliers,
the UNC defense gave them
just two in the second, neither
of which were on goal.
Despite slowing down the
hare in the second half, the
tortoise still couldn’t catch up.

DURHAM — It takes
something special to knock
off a top ranked team.
Syracuse forward Emma
Russell is pretty special.
Just 24 hours removed
from setting an ACC tournament record with four goals
against No. 9 Boston College,
Russell was at it again. This
time at the expense of the No.
1 UNC field hockey team.
Almost eight minutes into
the first period of suddendeath overtime Friday,
Russell blasted an impressive
back-handed shot past UNC
goalkeeper Shannon Johnson
to upset the Tar Heels 3-2
and send Syracuse to the ACC
Tournament championship.
“That’s a remarkable player,” Coach Karen Shelton said
of Russell. “We knew that
she was going to be good. We
talked about putting her on a
short leash, and then she got
away from us a little bit, so
we’ve got to be better.”
Russell got the scoring
started just over 15 minutes
in, eluding a UNC defender
with a spin move before sending a shot past Johnson. The
Tar Heels answered 13 minutes later, when junior forward Casey Di Nardo tipped
in a pass from Emma Bozek
at the front of the cage.
With fewer than two minutes to play in the first half,
senior forward Charlotte
Craddock put the Tar Heels
ahead 2-1 with a put-back goal
off a rebound. It was her first
goal since an overtime game-
winner against No. 11 Wake
Forest on Oct. 25.
Syracuse head coach Ange
Bradley apparently had plenty
to say to her team at halftime.
With fewer than 30 seconds
on the halftime clock and all
the UNC players on the field,
Syracuse was nowhere to be
found. The first Orange player
finally emerged from the locker room with just 15 seconds
to spare, and whatever Bradley
told her girls, it worked.
The Orange came out hot,
controlling the ball for the
majority of the half. Johnson
was able to keep the Orange
out of the cage for a while, but
Syracuse’s onslaught of shots
and five penalty corners proved
to eventually be too much.
Freshman Lieke Visser tied
the game at two for the Orange
with just over 15 minutes left.
UNC managed just two
second-half shots and went
shotless for a 22-minute span.
“They just came out stronger in the second half and
wanted it a little bit more,” Di
Nardo said.
Russell’s overtime gamewinner gave her back-to-back
record-breaking days. Her six
goals in the tournament are a
new ACC record.
The Tar Heels would have
liked a chance at Wake Forest
for the ACC championship, but
with the NCAA tournament
days away and chances of UNC
hosting the first two rounds
almost certain, Shelton and
her players still seemed calm.
“Dean Smith used to talk
about this all the time: In the
ACC tournament, if you go
out early, all it means is you
get a little more rest going
into the NCAA postseason,”
Shelton said. “We’ve got
larger games ahead.”

MEN’S BASKETBALL: NORTH CAROLINA 112, BELMONT ABBEY 34
J.P. Tokoto chooses pass over flash Friday
Tokoto led UNC in
assists while shedding
his dunking persona.
By Pat James
Assistant Sports Editor
North Carolina junior forward J.P. Tokoto received the
ball in transition.
The fans in the Smith
Center watched as the highflying forward dribbled down
the floor on the break — in
anticipation of the potential
highlight-reel play Tokoto
would conjure as he has done
throughout his UNC career.
But as Tokoto approached
the Belmont Abbey defender
near the UNC basket —
instead of preparing for liftoff
— the Tar Heel high-riser
dished the ball to freshman
forward Justin Jackson at the
last second for an effortless
layup. Jackson’s layup gave
him 16 points on the night,
which led all scorers in UNC’s
112-34 trouncing of the
Crusaders on Friday night.
“Once I take that last
dribble, that’s when I decide
what to do, and if he keeps
backing up, I’m going to go
for the layup or the dunk,”
said Tokoto about the assist.
“If he chooses me, then I’m
just going to dish it off. I just
dished it off to Justin nicely.
“It’s a lot of easy plays.
You’ve just got to take your
time. Like coach always says,
‘Just make the extra pass,
make the easy play.’”
And as he did throughout
the night, Tokoto made that
extra pass. In fact, he made it
six times en route to leading
the Tar Heels with six assists
— tying a career high he set
on three separate occasions
during the 2013-14 season.
But even more impressive
than Tokoto’s six assists were
the zero turnovers that accompanied them on the stat sheet.
“That’s even better because
I talk to him all of the time,”
Coach Roy Williams said. “He
has the best eyes of any guy
on our team right now about
seeing things, but sometimes
he fails to see the defensive
player. It’s like a bad quarterback throwing in traffic all
of the time. But he made the
easy play every single time
tonight, and it worked.”
While Tokoto finished last
season with 103 assists —
second only to junior guard
Marcus Paige — the turnoverprone forward tallied 64 turnovers during UNC’s 34 games.
Tokoto said limiting such
mishaps was a major part of
his off-season training and
cutting back on turnovers
relied on improving one area
of his game in particular.
“Ball handling,” Tokoto
said. “A lot of it last year was,
‘Okay, I see the guy. I’ve got
to get it out of my hands right
now.’ And last year, my ball
handling wasn’t up to where
it needed to be. I worked on
that over the summer with
Coach (Hubert) Davis, and it’s
proved to work out so far.”
Kennedy Meeks couldn’t
agree more. The sophomore
forward, who finished with 14
points, was on the receiving
end of two of Tokoto’s assists.
In the waning minutes of
the first half, Tokoto received
a pass from sophomore guard
Nate Britt on the right side
of the floor. Tokoto took one
dribble toward the basket —
and while looking the other
direction — slipped a bounce
pass underneath the arm of his
defender to Meeks for a layup.
“I think he sees everything.
No matter if he’s looking away
or not, I think he knows that
you’re there,” Meeks said. “I
think he knows that’s where
you should be, and he takes
advantage of that.”
The play might not have
been as flashy as the dunks that
have garnered Tokoto the ranking as ESPN’s No. 7 dunker
in the country — a ranking he
backed up with multiple slams,
including one in which he took
flight following a 360-spin past
his defender.
But for the UNC forward
whose reputation as a dunker
precedes him, Meeks said
Tokoto’s ability to finish at the
rim as well as to find the open
man makes him a key dualthreat for the Tar Heels.
“If he’s going to the basket,
people are going to sag off,”
Meeks said. “It’s open shots
for Marcus open shots for
Nate. If he’s out on the wing,
they’re going to come out, and
it’s easy buckets for us. He’s a
great piece of our team. He’s
a great asset to our team. He’s
one of the most important
people on our team.”

UNC AND TOWN READY EBOLA RESPONSE
Orange County
Health experts
prepare for
Ebola cases
By Hannah Jaggers
Staff Writer
After the Ebola virus garnered international attention for months, a scare at
Duke University Hospital has some in
the Triangle worried. While local health
officials are prepared for the worst, they
say the virus is not a threat to people in
Orange County.
Ebola is a communicable disease,
an illness caused by infectious agents
that are spread through either direct or
indirect contact of an infected person or
animal to someone else.
“First of all, people wisely are
afraid of communicable diseases,” said
Dr. Myron Cohen, chief of the UNC
Division of Infectious Diseases and
director of the UNC Institute for Global
Health & Infectious Diseases.
“It is not a new idea for our species to
be afraid.”
Stacy Shelp, spokeswoman for the
Orange County Health Department,
said the department’s goal is to be prepared to keep residents as safe as possible.
“The name of the game is being prepared,” Shelp said. “You definitely don’t
want to be reactionary.”
A man who had developed a fever
after returning from Liberia was admitted to Duke University Hospital on
Nov. 2. The following morning, the N.C.
Department of Health and Human
Services announced that the patient’s
preliminary test results were negative
for Ebola.
The federal Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention confirmed the
negative test result.
Shelp said the health department has
been preparing for a situation like this
since July.
“Orange County has actually been
working since July to not only develop
a plan but to actually train and put the

UNC scientists
collaborate to
find new Ebola
treatments
By Wei Zhou
Staff Writer
UNC researchers have turned to
unlikely allies for their help in finding
new treatments for Ebola — mice.
UNC researchers, along with
researchers from other institutions,
have developed a mouse model that
reproduces symptoms similar to those
of humans infected by Ebola. The work
was published in the academic journal
Science in October.
The study is a collaboration between
UNC, the University of Washington and
the National Institute of Health Rocky
Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton,
Mont.
Mark Heise, one of four co-directors
of the project at UNC and professor at
UNC School of Medicine, said the study
will contribute to testing therapies and
vaccines for Ebola and help understand
how genetic variation affects susceptibility to the virus.
“It gives us information on how variation in host genes affects susceptibility
to Ebola,” said Marty Ferris, also a codirector and a professor. “Nobody has
done that before.”
He said the study is a team effort,
bringing expertise from different places.
Fernando Pardo Manuel de Villena, a
co-director of the project and a professor, said collaboration is crucial to the
success of the research.
“That’s how science typically works,”
said Pardo Manuel de Villena. “You have
expertise from different aspects and different institutions, and not every institution has everything the same.”
Heise said they chose mice instead of
other animals to formulate the model
because mice are relatively cheap, and
over the years, research using mice has
led to the creation of more advanced
tools to understand the rodent’s genetics.
“Mice have been used for over 100

Schnur wins tennis championship Two Homecoming
acts haven’t sold
The sophomore is the first
indoor champion at UNC
since 1993.
Earl Sweatshirt and
Gloriana have sold about
700 tickets combined.
By C Jackson Cowart
Staff Writer
On one of the biggest stages in
collegiate tennis and on the cusp of
defeat, Brayden Schnur relied on
mental fortitude en route to a championship performance.
After nearly being eliminated in
the first round, the North Carolina
sophomore rallied back to claim the
ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate
Championship title, winning 6-4,
7-6(2) over Vanderbilt’s No. 9
Gonzales Austin at the site of the US
Open in Flushing Meadows, N.Y.
Schnur only dropped one set the
entire tournament, coming in the
first round against Columbia’s No. 8
Winston Lin — a senior playing in
his home territory.
But when Lin held match point
in the third set and threatened to
send Schnur home early, the Ontario
native ripped off three straight victories on his way to winning nine consecutive sets and the singles title.
“Coming from almost the brink
of losing to winning the whole thing
is great,” said teammate Ronnie
Schneider, who made it to the quarterfinals despite being added to the
tournament draw just days earlier.
“As the tournament went on, I could
see the confidence growing. I’m not
surprised at all that he won.”
Neither was Schnur, whose confidence helped him overmatch his
opponents.
“Coming into the tournament, I
kind of knew in the back of my head
that if I showed up for every single
match with the right attitude, I could
win,” Schnur said. “I know I can win
a lot of these matches if I just stay
mentally strong.”
Mental strength became even
more significant when physical
strength was waning. After compet-

ing in five matches over four days,
Schnur began to feel the effects of
such a strenuous schedule.
“It definitely takes a toll on the
body,” Schnur said. “(Sunday) morning I definitely wasn’t feeling the
greatest as I woke up. It (was) getting
a little bit harder and harder to wake
up and get the body going.”
And in that final match, it was
mind over body that propelled
Schnur to victory.

Board’s plan to draw more students to Homecoming concerts
might have backfired — so far, the
acts it booked for two separate
concerts couldn’t fill Memorial
Hall in one night.
As of Saturday, country group
Gloriana had sold about 250 tickets
for its show Tuesday at Memorial
Hall. Earl Sweatshirt has sold 450
tickets for his show Wednesday.
Memorial Hall fits about 900
students in its lower level. CUAB
president and senior Gabe Chess
said the student-run board was
hoping to sell out the lower level
for both concerts.
But Chess is hopeful the activities board will reach that goal —
at least with Sweatshirt’s concert.
“With Earl Sweatshirt, we feel
pretty good about the numbers,”
he said. “You know, students tend
to buy things at the last minute.
I’ve heard from a lot of people
who haven’t bought their tickets
yet, so I do expect those numbers
to pick up.”
Chess said he did not work closely
with Homecoming last year, but he
estimates that about 1,000 tickets
were sold for Wale and Ace Hood’s
performance in Carmichael Arena
last year. In 2012, J. Cole sold out his
show in Carmichael, selling about
3,000 tickets.
But Chess said even with J. Cole’s
sold out show, CUAB still had
about $100,000 in expenses after
accounting for the ticket revenues.
This is why the board decided
to play it safe this year, spending a
The greatest inspiration is often born of desperation.
COMER COTRELL
combined $50,000 on the two acts.
“Even in the years that we’re
selling out, it was at a super high
expense to students,” Chess said.
“If we’re only reaching 3,000
students, then it’s difficult to hit
those other 25,000 students who
paid the fee when we spend a
third of the budget on one event.”
Chess said hosting the concerts
on weekdays, rather than on the
same day as the Homecoming
game, may have played a factor in
the low ticket sales.
“Maybe students were hesitant
to go out on a Tuesday night to a
show,” he said.
To encourage students to buy
tickets, Chess said CUAB hosted
a scavenger hunt for tickets to the
shows on Twitter and sat in the
Pit to sell tickets.
CUAB board member and
sophomore Jesus Barreto said
students seem to like the twoconcert system.
“Overall, students seem really
positive and excited for both
Gloriana and Earl,” he said. “Some
students I’ve talked to are actually
planning on attending both events.”
But some students say they won’t
buy tickets because they just don’t
know who these performers are.
Senior Elizabeth Geyer said she
didn’t know the concerts were happening this week and that even if
she did, she wouldn’t want to go on
a school night anyway.
“I have several large assignments
due this week, and I don’t know
who either of the performers are,”
she said.
Regardless, Chess still thinks
those who do attend will have a
great Homecoming experience.
“There will be a lot of students
there, and the students who will
be there will have a really wonderful experience,” he said.

f you’ve ever been to Paris — and even if you haven’t — you probably know of the famous Eiffel Tower light show that happens every
night. It’s the Instagrammer’s dream pic, second only to pics of the
Old Well and the quad. Well, according to French law, taking pictures
of the Eiffel Tower light show is a copyright infringement. Meanwhile, taking pictures of the Eiffel Tower during the day is completely legal and
doesn’t break any copyright laws. Quoi? Yes, you read that right. Let us try
to explain. The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889, so its copyright has long since
expired, which means it’s in the public domain, so taking pictures of it and
sharing them is legal. The light show, on the other hand, was added much
more recently and is still protected by copyright. Makes sense, oui? Eh, non.

Theology, Ethics, Politics:
Three Challenges for Islamic Reform
How should Islamic teachings relate to the specific conditions
of modernity? Islamic Reform is the effort of Muslims to
reconstruct Islamic teachings and practice in modern times.
This lecture addresses the challenge of reforming Islamic
doctrines in three related areas: theology, ethics and politics,
with special reference to Shi`ism. It will be illustrated by critical
reflections on concepts of religious authority (the position of
the Imams), Shari’a as an ethical tradition in dialogue with
modernity, and the necessity of secularism in terms of
separation of mosque and state.

endowments
raise returns

Clear pedestrians,

In 2014, endowments recorded a
15.8 percent average rate of return.

Staff Writer
Budget cuts are handicapping universities
nationwide, but a study of the 2014 fiscal year
shows some post-recession growth.
Commonfund, an investment management
practice with clients in the United States and
Canada, and the National Association of College
and University Business Officers found in a preliminary study of 2014 that endowments have received
double-digit return rates — meaning universities
are collecting money on their investments.
Endowments are university investments made
to promote growth and ensure that schools have a
steady income.
The study, to be fully published in January 2015,
will eventually include more than 800 public and
private colleges and universities and foundations
that support university research.
Kenneth Redd, director of research and policy
analysis at NACUBO, said the organization’s joint
study shows that 2014 endowment rates have
bounced back from the recession.
The study recorded a 15.8 percent average
return rate in 2014, while UNC saw an endowment return of 12.1 percent in 2013.
UNC’s endowment fell short of its five-year
goal while exceeding its 10-year standard with a
9.2 percent return rate.
Still, UNC outperformed the 11.6 percent
median rate of other universities in a peer group
called the Cambridge Associates.
Michael Jacobs, professor of finance at UNC
Kenan-Flagler Business School, said investment
management requires consistently high-performing return rates.
“Looking at just one year (of data) can be very
deceptive,” he said.
Jacobs said for instance, the N.C. pension fund,
which heavily invests in bonds, might appear to
be suffering when interest rates rise. Because of
these fluctuations, there should be a measure of
comparison, he said.
William Jarvis, managing director of
Commonfund, said 2014’s results will be compared to data collected since 2002.
“The purpose of the report (preview) is to educate not only the participants themselves — so
you can compare and contrast to peer institutions
— but also to educate policymakers and the public
about what’s going on with endowments,” he said.
Jarvis said many universities are turning to
alternative, riskier strategies to diversify their
investment portfolios.
“Educational endowments were, in fact, the
leaders in investing in these so-called alternative
investments,” he said. “If you have many eggs in
many baskets, you have more sources of returns.”

Friday Night Lights called for bicyclists from the Chapel Hill area to show off their rides that were decorated with a variety of safety lights.
Carrboro hosts Friday Night Lights event for bike safety
By Zoe Schaver
Assistant City Editor
As the nights grow longer post-daylight
saving time, cyclists and pedestrians will
be even more at risk for accidents — so,
Carrboro street safety advocates are working to light the night.
The Carrboro Recreation & Parks
Department, Go Chapel Hill and the
Carrboro Bicycle Coalition collaborated to
put together Friday Night Lights on Nov.
7, an event where cyclists and pedestrians
could collect free lights for nighttime visibility and join in on a walk and bike ride.
The event also featured a contest for the
best-lit cyclists and pedestrians, the best use
of reflective material by a cyclist or pedestrian and the best tips for commuting cyclists.
“We’re tired of seeing people out there
who are not visible,” said Heidi Perry,
an event organizer and member of the
Carrboro Bicycle Coalition.
“The two recent fatalities involving bikes
— those both happened during the day. It
becomes even worse at night.”
The CBC has done bike light giveaways in
the past, but she said this was the first time
the organization had planned an event with
contests and a group bike ride.
Bess Pridgen and Olivia Fricks, students
at McDougle Middle School who attended
Friday Night Lights, said they bike to school
and to each other’s houses on a regular basis.
“Sometimes I’ll bike over to her house,
and it’ll be really dark. It’s really scary to
bike home without lights, because I don’t
want to get hit,” Fricks said.
Molly DeMarco, a Chapel Hill resident
and volunteer judge for the contests, said she
keeps an eye out for cyclists commuting from
work without bike lights at night.
“Every time I see someone riding in the
dark on (N.C. 54), I want to stop and give
them a light,” she said.
Perry said the event’s nighttime bike ride
was tailored to demonstrate the usefulness
of bike lights to the riders.
“On the way back, we went down some
dark, small neighborhood streets so they
could see how much the lights help them as
much as they help the cars,” she said.
“The ride was great — that may have been
the highlight of the night. The kids were hav-
ing a blast. They were waving to everybody
on Franklin Street, and everybody was very
well-lit, so everybody could see us coming.”
The Carrboro Board of Aldermen and
Carrboro Mayor Lydia Lavelle were invited
as guests to judge the event’s contests.
“It’s the perfect time of year for this event
because the time just changed — it’s going to
be darker out for longer and people need to
be safe,” said alderman Damon Seils.
Winners of the contest for most visible
cyclist were John Rees, who donned fullbody Christmas lights, and Steve Wismann,
who wired a laptop battery to LED light
strips to create a moving light show on the
body of his bike.
Perry said collaboration was a vital component of organizing the event, with the
Carrboro Police Department sending two
officers along on the event’s bike ride, Go
Chapel Hill providing extra volunteers and
Carrboro government officials coming out
to show their support.
“We’re very fortunate to have a very willing town,” she said. “It takes a village.”

Q&A with Berlin Wall
expert Konrad Jarausch
Sunday marked the 25th
anniversary of the fall of the
Berlin Wall. The wall, built on
Aug. 15, 1961, by the government of East Germany, remains
one of the most powerful symbols of the Cold War. Konrad H.
Jarausch, UNC Lurcy Professor
of European Civilization, spoke
with Daily Tar Heel staff writer
Jungsu Hong about the anniversary of the fall.
DTH: How is Nov. 9 a signifi-
cant date in German history?
KJ: At the end of the First
World War, around Nov. 9, there
was a revolution that kicked the
Kaiser out. In 1938, there was
Kristallnacht (“Night of Broken
Glass”), where they beat up Jews
and torched synagogues. Also on
Nov. 9, the Berlin Wall opens up
again, because of a combination
of pressure from the population
and a reform attempt of the
government that was bundled.
The Berlin party chief, who
announced it on television,
mumbled something because he
hadn’t been told what to say, and
when asked when it would be
opened said, “Immediately.” The
Western journalists interpreted
it as people could go through the
border right after the announcement, but it really meant that
people had to apply to cross, but
permission would be given more
liberally.

response to the great number of
Eastern citizens who were moving through Berlin in order to
get out of western Germany. It
was a safety valve, and the communist dictatorship wanted to
stop that, so the wall was built.

Mikhail) Gorbachev was
asleep — two hours ahead
in Russia — so his assistants
didn’t dare wake him up, and
he woke up the next morning to an open Berlin Wall.
The only way to close it again
was bloodshed, but it would
be against Russian reform
attempts. The process was out
of control. People had already
taken over. The fall of the wall
wasn’t by famous opposition
leaders; it was by popular
process.
DTH: Do you have any personal memories related to the
fall of the Berlin Wall?
KJ: I was working on several
dozen books, and my son ran
upstairs and said, “Daddy, the
Berlin Wall has fallen!” and I
thought he was crazy, but my
son grabbed me by the arm and
took me to the television, and it
was there.
I was very afraid some fool
would shoot and Russian
military would start shooting.
Also in November 1988, we
had bought an apartment in
West Germany in the summer,
which turned out to be very
clever. I also chipped off pieces from the wall. I still have
some of the pieces framed in
the office.
DTH: Why is the fall of the
Berlin Wall a significant event
to remember in 2014?
KJ: It is an example (of )
when circumstances arise and
people can protest peacefully,
they can overthrow a dictatorship, and regime change is
possible even if it is completely
unthinkable.
Christmas is coming early at four middle
schools in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, where
faculty and staff will receive new Apple laptops in the coming weeks.
The schools are participating in the
Laptop Refresh Program, organized by the
Information Technology Department of
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools.
Starting today, Smith Middle School,
Phillips Middle School, Culbreth Middle
School and McDougle Middle School will
each hold a laptop refresh event, through
which staff members will receive, register and
learn about their new MacBook Air laptops.
Though CHCCS has offered Laptop
Refresh since 2006, the district is now making a transition to using Apple computers.
Ray Reitz, chief technology officer for
CHCCS, said the program started to ensure
teachers had computers so they could teach,
research and work on course development.
“It’s becoming much more common in
schools to ensure that the teachers and students have contemporary and up-to-date
tools to use in school,” Reitz said.
Reitz said MacBook Air laptops have
several integrated multimedia functions for
video, audio and editing.
“These features are important to many
teachers who compile their students’ work
so they can showcase them online and
offline,” Reitz said. “It’s really the (Adobe)
Creative Suite that the teachers value with
the Mac platform.”
He said the laptops are covered by a threeyear warranty through the program, which
is funded as a capital project in the district’s
budget, meaning money is allocated toward
student and teacher laptops each year.
Reitz said he estimated about 320 laptops would be divided out to the four middle schools participating in the program.
“This year is the year for the middle school
teachers to receive new laptops,” he said.
“Next year the district will be refreshing all
elementary school laptops. The following
year it will refresh the high school, and then
they will be back to the middle school.”
Jason Bales, instructional technology
facilitator for Culbreth Middle School, said
the main job of each facilitator is getting
teachers ready to hand in their old laptops
to exchange for new ones.
“What they have to do is make sure that
anything they want to keep and take to the
new laptop is saved,” Bales said.
Michael Byers, instructional technology
facilitator at Phillips Middle School, said
teachers preferred the Apple platform to that
of the PCs previously offered by the program.
“Teachers were told and allowed to state
a preference for a type of laptop, and it
was about 95 percent that voted for a Mac
laptop, so they are definitely with the program,” he said. “It’s been very well planned
and directed from the district, and they’ve
tried to make everything stepwise.”

Former football player Michael McAdoo
has filed a class-action lawsuit against UNC
for failing to provide him, and other athletes, with a quality education because they
were funneled to fraudulent classes within
the former African and Afro-American
studies department. The suit was filed in
Charlotte.
Two pedestrians were struck by a vehicle
at 121 W. Franklin St at around 11 p.m.
Thursday, according to Chapel Hill Police.
The pedestrians appeared to have only

Tuition might go
up for in-state
By Ashlen Renner
Staff Writer
The topic of raising tuition
and fees for the 2015-16 and
2016-17 academic years stirred
a debate among members of
the Tuition
TUITION & FEES
and Fee
Advisory
Task Force
Friday.
“I think
it’s a sacred
commitment to be responsible
about tuition,” Provost Jim
Dean said. “But on the other
hand, you do have to run the
University.”
The task force suggests
tuition and fee changes to the
chancellor and the Board of
Trustees for approval and later
to the Board of Governors.
The task force proposed
a tuition increase of $225
for both in-state and outof-state undergraduates in
the 2015-16 academic year.
That amounts to a 3.5 percent increase for in-state
students and a 0.71 percent
increase for out-of-state
students.
The task force proposed
another increase of $233 for
undergraduates in the 201617 year.
In-state and out-of-state
graduate tuition would also
increase by $450 and $500,
respectively, during the two
years. That would mean a
5.18 percent increase for instate graduate students and a
1.74 percent increase for outof-state graduate students in
2015-16.
The task force was
wary about further tuition
increases for undergraduate
non-residents because in the
2014-15 academic year, the
tuition for those students
rose by $3,300.
“I think that was a very significant increase,” Dean said.
“It certainly must have been
one of the most significant
increases in tuition for quite
some time, if not ever.”
After considering the idea
of only increasing undergraduate non-resident tuition for
the 2016-17 academic year,
the task force decided to split
the increase over two years.
“I think, in general, if
people look at these charts
and see what looked to be
increases for residents and
not non-residents, then
people would worry about
that,” Dean said. “We are part
of a larger system with other
decision makers, and we’re
trying to make sure we pay
the appropriate respect to
their point of view.”
Despite the increases, UNC’s
tuition remains below the
average cost of its public peer
universities. But Steve Farmer,
vice provost for enrollment and
undergraduate admissions,
stressed that tuition should
reflect the University’s market
and not its peers.
“I think we are at our market now, and we are at our
market price,” he said. “The
higher non-resident tuition
goes, the less likely we are to
attract people.”
The task force’s plan
would generate an additional revenue of about $8.2
million for the 2015-16 academic year and about $8.8
million for the following
year. According to a presentation given at the meeting,
the revenue cannot be used
toward financial aid but can
be used to pay deficits, support pay raises for faculty
and staff and help with faculty retention.
The task force estimated
that a 1 percent pay raise for
all faculty and staff would
cost more than $3.3 million.
“Students understand that
we get the bang for our buck
at Carolina,” Brittany Best,
student body treasurer, said.
“We also understand that if
our favorite professor leaves,
we don’t like that. So if there’s
a way that we can keep professors here, I think students
will be willing to pay.”

plan in to action,” Shelp said.
“This is not new to us, and
we have been very actively
involved since the beginning.”
Leslie O’Connor, public
health preparedness coordinator with the county health
department, said in an effort
to combat the Ebola virus, she
has been conducting trainings for several of the health
department’s local partners.
“The communication
began with our local partners
back in July that this could
potentially become a real
threat and that we needed to
start practicing,” she said.
Orange County Emergency
Services has also been working to better handle the public’s concern over Ebola.
“Isolation and supportive care are the only treatments for the Ebola virus,”
O’Connor said.
“There is no cure for Ebola;
there is no vaccine. We’re certain that their plans are probably the best they could be for
this patient.”
For now, Cohen said isolation is the best option.
“Quarantines are not
meant to deprive people of
their rights but meant to create a much simpler situation
for the person,” Cohen said.
“The disaster is if someone
comes back, they’re wandering around, and a lot of
people get exposed.”
The CDC reports that
Ebola virus was first discovered in 1976, and since its discovery, outbreaks of the virus
have occurred intermittently
in Africa.
Cohen said Ebola is
believed to have originated in
a species of bat in West Africa
and became communicable,
or transmissible from one

have a lot of efforts towards

human to another, after the
virus infected a human host.
In 2014, cases of Ebola
virus began to accumulate in
West Africa, particularly in
Guinea, Liberia and Sierra
Leone. The World Health
Organzation reports that as of
Nov. 2, a total of 13,042 cases
have been reported this year
in West Africa.
The N.C. DHHS reports
that there have been a total
of four confirmed cases of
Ebola in the United States
and one death resulting from
the virus. No cases have been
confirmed in North Carolina.
Cohen said there are three
reasons why Ebola virus
evokes so much fear in the
general public.
“Number one: We don’t
know all the rules,” Cohen
said. “We don’t know everything about it. We haven’t had
an epidemic, so we’re learning
the rules as we go along.
“Number two: It makes
people sick as shit and is fatal
most of the time.
“Number three: People
will get much more comfortable once we have biological
intervention,” Cohen said.
“For Ebola, we’re trying to
develop pills very quickly. Our
only strategy for prevention is
quarantine. And it’s effective,
but it’s difficult.”
Cohen said although evidence suggests the virus can
only be transmitted through
direct contact, there are still
some concerns.
“Sometimes an infectious
agent can be transmitted on
inanimate objects,” Cohen
said. “The best example of
this is Norovirus. Ebola, one
of the concerns, is how much
can inanimate objects hold
the virus.”
Cohen said people should
recognize how hard North
Carolina has been working to
model is easier for them to
study how variation in genetics
affects susceptibility to Ebola.
Heise said the eventual
goal is to understand how
genetics affect other viruses.
“The longer-term idea is
that some day we will be able
to say that these genes that
increase your Ebola susceptibility — and they also maybe
increase the susceptibility to
other viruses — so you can
come back to not only one
disease but multiple at the
same time,” he said.

prepare for Ebola.
“The state of North
Carolina and hospitals of
North Carolina have been preparing for this,” Cohen said.
“Duke and UNC have been
working together with the
state on this problem.”
Cohen said the UNC
Center for Infectious Diseases
is always prepared for new
diseases to emerge.
“For people who do this
for a living, it’s never calm,”
Cohen said.
“We’re not allowed the
luxury of panic. We’re more
orderly about thinking this
through.”
The Orange County Health
Department might be taking
precautions against Ebola,
but Cohen said residents
should not be distressed.
“People in Orange County
do not need to be afraid about
Ebola.”
“I wouldn’t say that I
played my best match tenniswise, just because I was
physically tired, but I think
I played my best mental
match,” Schnur said. “You
just kind of find the mental
strength and the motivation
knowing that the tournament’s coming to an end
(and) there’s nothing that can
really motivate me more than
playing for a national championship.”
With the win, Schnur
became only the second
men’s player from UNC to
be named indoor champion,
and the first since Roland
Thornqvist in 1993.
“It’s a very prestigious
tournament to win — lot of
great players have won it,”
Coach Sam Paul said. “He’s
now among some really elite
players that have won that
tournament.”
Schnur was honored to be
mentioned in the company
of such prestigious winners,
but Schneider knows this is
only the beginning for his
teammate.
“His goal ultimately is to
be one of the top pro players
in the world,” Schneider said.
“This is just a little stepping
stone on the way.”
The champion’s mental
approach is still the same as
always, with his eyes set on a
much greater prize.
“Seeing the names of the
big champions that have
won previous years and how
they’ve done on the pro tour
is incredible,” Schnur said.
“To see my name up beside
those names … Hopefully
I can play like that on tour
soon.”

It can also be transmitted

Orange County emergency personnel can recognize

“… What you want to do is to be able to help
when the outbreak occurs.”
Fernando Pardo Manuel de Villena,
Co-director of UNC’s Ebola mouse model study
“It’s really not because of
the current Ebola outbreak
— it’s really to answer these
more fundamental questions.”
Pardo Manuel de Villena
said the project has been in the
works for two years and isn’t
a reaction to the publicity surrounding the recent outbreak.
“It’s not a good idea to start
a project when there is an
outbreak — you need to start
the project before because
what you want to do is to be
able to help when the outbreak occurs.”

he class of 2015 is a
few months into senior
year, and we’re all in
very different places. Some
have already landed a job
that begins immediately after
graduation. To you we ask,
“Okay, how did you do that?”
and “Why not me?!”
Some are scrambling to
figure out what to do with an
anthropology degree. To you
we say, “I’m gonna go buy you
another beer,” and, “Here, let
me give you a hug.”
I’m extremely jealous of those
with a direct path — those who
have a dream job, an open door
or even just a direction.
But the next step feels weird
and ambiguous to many of us. I
think about where I’ll be a year
from now, and it’s a completely
blank slate. I could be anywhere
doing practically anything.
(Okay, not anything… I probably
won’t be wearing excellent white
pantsuits, drinking red wine and
declaring, “It’s handled,” only to
shut my office door and watch
“Friends” on my computer all
day, but I’m still trying to keep
this dream alive. Email me if
you have an opening for a position like this.)
Small talk with friends, relatives and acquaintances changes from, “What dorm are you
living in?” and, “What’s your
major?” to that dreaded question — “What are your plans
after graduation?” Here are
some suggestions for those of
us who don’t have that answer
fully figured out.
Laugh violently. Then, allow
your expression to evolve from
crazed laughter to hysterical
crying. Put your face in your
hands and start muttering,
“Oh god, oh god,” over and over
again. This should buy you
some time to come up with an
actual answer while your face is
in your hands.
Start over from the beginning. Tell your friends and
family you’ve decided you’re
just going to hit control-Z over
and over again until you’re
back to the fifth floor of Craige
on move-in day.
Give the people what they
want! Just make something up
that sounds good, even if your
stories don’t match up. People
will just think you’ve been
changing your mind a lot. Tell
them you’re being really indecisive because you’re a Libra.
It doesn’t matter that you’re an
Aquarius. Times are desperate.
Most importantly, tell them
something that won’t provoke
any follow-up questions. Try,
“I’m backpacking around
Europe to really find myself.” No
one will want to hear about that.
Ellipses. This is a great tactic for when asked in a virtual
format, like Facebook messages
from fair-weather friends and
emails from your favorite aunt.
It’s ambiguous and will make
your plans seem more mysterious and alluring…
If worse comes to worst, you
could always just say you’re
doing something practical like
going to graduate school or
performing covers of TLC’s
“No Scrubs” to the audience
of fruit flies that hangs out in
your kitchen.
Or just be honest and say
you’ll be consuming copious
amounts of alcohol while
freaking out every time someone looks at your LinkedIn
profile (spoiler: It’s just
your LinkedIn-savvy friend
endorsing you for “public
speaking” again).

We can’t let this fly
Restricted airspace
in Ferguson culled
press coverage.
I
n August, the
Federal Aviation
Administration set
flight restrictions for the
37 square miles of airspace above Ferguson,
Mo., for 12 days.
The First Amendment
protects the right to freedom of press from government censorship. But the
FAA’s involvement in an
attempt to suppress media
coverage of Ferguson violated this basic and essential constitutional right.
At first the FAA restricted air traffic up to 5,000
feet in altitude, then to
3,000 feet. These restrictions were meant to allow
commercial flights to fly
through the city while still
keeping news helicopters
out, according to recordings
of conversations among
FAA managers obtained by
the Associated Press.
But multiple officials
denied the role of media
coverage in the decision to
create the no-fly zone.
St. Louis police Chief
Jon Belmar denied claims
that restricting the airspace above Ferguson was
to curb media coverage of
the protests following the
death of Michael Brown.
He claimed, instead, that
it was in response to a shot
fired at a police helicopter
yet could not provide such
an incident report.
FAA administrator
Michael Huerta said the
FAA could not exclusively
ban the media from covering Ferguson. Yet, in
recordings of conversations
between FAA managers, it
was explicitly stated that
the St. Louis County Police
Department was concerned
about keeping the media
out of the airspace.
An investigation of both
the St. Louis County Police
Department and the FAA
is warranted to address
these clear constitutional
violations, as is a broader
conversation about police
transparency.
EDITORIAL
The vocal network
Professors provided
much-needed
context for debate.
A
t a time when the
Wainstein report
has shaken this
community’s faith in oversight at the University,
the Progressive Faculty
Network should be commended for pushing a
view of the scandal with a
wider perspective.
The group has successfully challenged flawed
narratives associated with
the report, including the
racialized apportioning of
blame and an overempha-
sis of individual wrongdoing over institutional pressures like the unbalanced
relationship between academics and athletics.
They have also spoken
out about the lack of job
security for those who
challenge the University.
Critics have questioned
the legitimacy of this
fear, pointing to the vocal
nature of the Progressive
Faculty Network.
But those critics fail to
acknowledge the difference between speaking
out about an issue before
it is public knowledge and
afterward.
The fact that professors
were afraid to whistleblow about fraudulent
behavior before the first
reports about paper
classes emerged is apparent given the importance
of athletics to University
stakeholders.
The professors at this
university are in a unique
position to pressure the
system to behave ethically
in a way that is difficult
for transient students or
administrators negotiating
political, budgetary and
bureaucratic concerns.
The complaints of the
network should be taken
seriously and its work
celebrated.

Sports and the University
The threat of NCAA action highlights what we’d be missing.
T
he waiting is the
hardest part. A cruel
game of, “Will they,
won’t they?” The Wainstein
report has shed light on
some of the darkest corners
of the University — some
hidden on purpose, some
where others dared not peek.
The self-flagellation
was necessary for the healing process to begin, but
now, the ball is no longer
in UNC’s court. The wait
is on. How will the NCAA
respond?
There has been talk of
employing the seldom-used
“death penalty,” which forces
us to imagine life at UNC
without sports. The NCAA
absolutely should punish
UNC for its unethical actions,
but to misquote Patrick
Henry, “Give me sports or
give me death.”
Some might argue that
the importance of sports
in our society often has
destructive repercussions,
that it is what led to the
problems that plague this
University time and time
again. They’re not com-

pletely wrong. Sports can be
tragically overvalued, and
that can lead to dark places.
Recently, a Utah high school
quarterback received death
threats after his fumble lost
a playoff game.
But there is also a certain camaraderie that is
exclusive to sports. It’s there
when thousands of students,
pumped full of adrenaline,
rush Franklin Street after the
basketball team beat Duke
for the 133rd time in history.
No one cares who you are
in the revelry of a post-Duke
celebration. You’re not black
or white. You’re not Christian,
or Jewish, or Muslim or
Buddhist. You didn’t grow up
in poverty or wealth, or in a
city or the countryside. For
those few wonderful hours,
you’re hugging and kissing
and high-fiving anyone and
everyone you see, because
you all are one thing and one
thing only — Tar Heels.
When I think of home,
I think skyscrapers, family and the Braves. When I
think of my Dad, I think of
church-league basketball
and three-hour Sunday
phone calls spent commiserating about the Dolphins.
When I think of UNC, I
think the Old Well, Franklin
Street, going hoarse in the
warm Smith Center on
a brisk winter night and
sweating buckets in the student section at Kenan on a
blazing fall afternoon.
Sports are not integral to
keeping UNC’s high academic standard or accreditation,
but they are a vital part to
something equally as meaningful — UNC will always be
the university of the people,
and those people will always
be Tar Heels.
TO THE EDITOR:
The past failures of
the Faculty Athletics
Committee demonstrate
that the University needs
an entirely new athletics oversight body, openly
elected by faculty of
the College of Arts and
Sciences from their own
ranks. College faculty
should take charge of athletic oversight because they
teach nearly all courses
taken by student athletes.
The department most
tarnished by the scandal
was in the College. The
faculty who accommodated
athletes looking for paper
classes, free rides or easy
grades were in College
departments, including
the former Department of
African and Afro-American
Studies and others. The
scandal that corrupted
UNC’s academic integrity
disgraced the College, not
our schools of law, medicine or social work.
Unless College faculty
respond to this scandal by
exercising direct and vigorous oversight of the academic experiences of UNC
athletes, we will continue
to leave our reputation hostage to others.

Silent Sam Coalition, need
to clarify some aspects of
our recent actions regarding the Wainstein report.
Firstly, we are not disputing
the findings of this report.
Rather, we are focusing
our gaze on the implications of the sensationalized
media that focused on the
Department of African and
Afro-American Studies
instead of the institutional
level politics that allowed
this academic tragedy to
occur. The total absence of
any institutional oversight
of the AFAM department
demonstrates the inability of our institution (and
institutions nationally) to
value black studies, and, by
extension, black people.
The main purpose of
the rally was to provide
space for students to speak,
to express their feelings
about the Wainstein report
and their experiences as
students at this university.
It is no one’s place to tell
students with historically
marginalized identities how
to feel about what it means
for them to be a student at
this institution.
As active members of
the Carolina community,
we want these students to
be empowered to reclaim
space at this predominantly
white institution. The
incidents that occurred
on this campus cannot be
viewed solely as an isolated incident of academic
irregularity, but rather as
a culminating site of the
capitalist, racist and classist
sentiments that undergird
our collective experiences
as Americans.

Athletics, academics
share discipline
TO THE EDITOR:
Recognize how important education is for
athletes: All of us are one
injury away from obscurity.
Core skills are absent from
our graduates at great peril
to civil society. Discipline
is the hallmark of success, even for those born
gifted in brain or muscle or
coordination. Who is more
disciplined than the athlete
devoting a lifetime to honing their skills? “Iron butt”
Nixon in the Duke Library?
Athletics and athletes
require and deserve academic discipline and recognition and bachelor’s
degrees. The discussion
should be whether the
degree is a B.S. or a B.A.
The syllabus writes itself;
Is there such a thing as a
good foul?
How do you finance a
Little League team or a
university varsity?
What were the social
and economic impacts
of the Brooklyn Dodgers’
hiring Jackie Robinson or
moving to Los Angeles?
What are the psychological roots of home court
advantage?
What was the sociopolitical significance of Nelson
Mandela and the green
jersey?
What are the sexual and
social implications of controlled physical competition?
It is ridiculous to put
athletes into a separate box
from other social movers
and shakers and entertainers. Art, music, social science, business, economics,
politics, entertainment,
mathematics, ethics,
health, the humanities,
physics, science, et al. come
together in the human
spirit expressed in backyard sports and organized
athletics, modest and local
or world class, university or
Olympic or commercial.
The language of sports
is common in diplomatic
and commercial transactions worldwide, and the
binding capacity of sports
for all humanity may yet
overcome the divisiveness
of religious or political or
economic warriors fighting
outside the rules.

Chapel Hill folk dancers build strong community
By Drew Goins
Senior Writer
Muffled music can be
heard coming from within
the brick walls of the Beth El
Synagogue Freedman Center
on Wednesday nights. The
tunes — traditional melodies
from Norway, Egypt, Croatia
and beyond — are unfamiliar
to the uninitiated.
Inside are the members of
the Chapel Hill International
Folk Dance Club, who
have gathered nearly every
Wednesday night since 1964
to celebrate the world music
and dances that have brought
them together for 50 years.
The group celebrated its
landmark anniversary this
weekend with an extensive
three-day reunion — part of
which took place in the Great
Hall of the Student Union.
“We’ve been working on
this since January,” said Ann
DeMaine, a member of the
group who, with her husband,
Bob, spearheaded the planning of the event.
Ann DeMaine has been a
part of CHIFDC for decades,
but her husband still has the
edge — he’s been dancing for
49 of the group’s 50 years.
Other dancers in the group
describe the DeMaines as the
heart and soul of the club.
Saturday’s event was, of
course, all about dancing. It
featured seven hours of participatory dances from the
group’s repertoire. Former
group members came from
all over North America to
coalesce for the reunion,
returning to Chapel Hill from
places as far as California and
British Columbia.
Margaret Clemen, a member who’s danced with the
group since 1968, said she
fondly remembers the bonds
shared with the group back
&74*#/
Destination
when CHIFDC danced at
UNC’s Presbyterian Student
Center, its first home.
She also said while the
group has evolved and
members have come in and
out, the connections have
remained unchanged.
“For me, it’s still the same
group it was when we were in
the Presbyterian Center,” she
said. “When people come back
for the reunions, it’s like they’re
coming back into the fold.”
Jeanne Sawyer is one such
member returning to the fold.
Sawyer danced with the group
from 1968 to 1988 before she
moved to the West Coast. She
now lives in California and
flew back for the weekend
reunion, at which she not
only participated in dances,
but also accompanied them
with fiddling and singing.
Sawyer enters the center
with her husband — whom
she met through folk dancing — to a round of applause
from old friends and fellow
members.
“It’s lifelong friends, and
we can always come back,”
Sawyer said. “When we
moved to California, we
had to not think about (folk
dancing) for, like, a year just
because we had to make new
friends.”
One member calls out that
the Scandinavian dances are
starting soon. Sawyer shrugs
off her purple jacket, nestles
a fiddle against her neck and
heads out to the center of
the room to accompany the
upcoming Swedish hambo as
other members join in.
Mary Chrestenson-Becker
began Scandinavian folk
dancing at 13. She said she
has since danced in every
time zone in the United
States, but she considers
North Carolina her home.
“The appreciation for this
type of dancing brings people
from all over together,” she
said. “It’s so beautiful because
these intricate steps are like
puzzle pieces, and it’s hard
to learn, but when you get it
right, it’s just effortless.”
As an independent, selfemployed tutor, ChrestensonBecker doesn’t have co-worker friends, so she turns to folk
dancers for fellowship.
Dan Oldman has been
dancing with the group since
the early ’80s — a newbie by
many of the group’s standards
— and he has been CHIFDC’s
treasurer for more than 20
years. It’s the only official
position in an organization he
calls “a successful anarchy.”
Now, he not only dances
with fellow members;
he’s joined dinner groups,
attended CHIFDC New Year’s
Eve parties and gone on an
annual beach trip with other
members for years. Looking
to the future, he’s planning
a move to Carol Woods
Retirement Community with
a large group of fellow dancers sometime within the next
several years.
When asked what his
favorite part of the group is,
Oldman seems to speak for
most members.
“I should be saying it’s the
dancing, but it’s definitely the
people.”
Oldman mills about for a
few minutes, catching up with
friends since seeing them last
Wednesday — or last reunion
— before he heads out to the
dance floor, clasping hands
with old friends to dance the
Port Said, the daichovo, the
Swedish family waltz.

The Daily Tar Heel
Q&A with Ph.D. student
and Jeopardy contestant
After taking an online
test and trying out in
Washington, D.C., Che Smith
was invited to be taped on
“Jeopardy!” in August. A
Ph.D. student in the Gillings
School of Global Public
Health, Smith made her TV
appearance Thursday.
The Daily Tar Heel staff
writer Katie Reeder spoke with
Smith about her experience.
By Mary Taylor Renfro
Staff Writer
DAILY TAR HEEL: Did you
grow up watching the show?
CHE SMITH: From a very
young age — I don’t even
remember, so I usually just
say five years old — any family member that turned it on,
I would sit and watch it with
them. I was always enamored
by the production aspect of it,
the fact that it was a TV show
and the way the questions
were arranged on the board.
Just everything on the show
fascinated me, so I would just
watch it whenever I got the
chance.
DTH: Is this something you
ever thought you would do?
CS: I actually made it to the
tryout process before, back in
2008. I tried out in Savannah,
Ga. After I didn’t make it on
that year, I wasn’t sure it would
ever happen, but of course I’ve
always wanted to be on there,
and I did reserve a little bit of
hope that it would happen.
DTH: How did your friends
and family react when they
found out you were going to
be on the show?
CS: Everyone was so excited. That’s the best word that
I can use, just super excited
— especially those family
members who have watched
Launch looks

COURTESY OF CHE SMITH
Ph.D. student Che Smith had the opportunity to compete on “Jeopardy!” in August. Although she
came close to making it on the show in 2008, Smith stated she “wasn’t sure it would ever happen.”
the show with me.
DTH: Did you study before
going on the show?
CS: I asked the casting
coordinators, and they said
the best way to study is to
watch the show. I made sure
to DVR the show, and I would
watch as many episodes as I
could. Because I was living in
Washington, D.C., at the time,
I would go to museums all the
time to study and just try to
absorb as much information
as possible.
DTH: What was the most
exciting part?
CS: One of the most exciting things was the announcer,
Johnny Gilbert, when he
came onto the set.
You just kind of hear his
voice all the time when the
show comes on, but you
never really get to see him, so
matching a face to that voice
was pretty exciting. And then
of course when we first saw
Alex Trebek walk onto the
stage, that was very exciting.
DTH: What made you the
most nervous on the show?
CS: Basically you don’t
know what categories you’re
going to get until you get on
the stage — so just not knowing what the categories would
be and whether I was prepared to answer questions on
those topics.
DTH: Did you meet any
other people on the show?
CS: You get to meet all the
other contestants that tape that
day, and you basically spend
the whole day with them, so I
got to know them very well.
Everyone was really excited
to be there. It’s really weird
because we all have this common goal of — we’ve always
wanted to be on “Jeopardy!,”
and that day happened to
be the day that we got our
chance to be on “Jeopardy!”
DTH: Did you have to keep
the results a secret?
CS: I had to be very limited in what I said about the
taping and the results, so it
was really hard to do that,
but there was still a lot of
excitement among my social
network.

Almost two years after
he became a part of Launch
Chapel Hill’s first class of business ventures, Jeff Henriod,
founder of Let’s Chip In, said
he appreciates the resources
he received from the program
— especially the space that fostered a collaborative environment between participants.
“The interactions with the
other entrepreneurs were really
helpful,” Henriod said. “People
who were all working on problems that were at a similar
stage — and you could augment and mentor each other.”
Launch Chapel Hill, a business incubator that aims to
support entrepreneurs, opened
in 2013. Launch is accepting
applicants for its spring 2015
class of ventures until Sunday.
Henriod said though he
decided not to pursue his business — a website allowing
people to split the cost of group
gifts — he gained valuable
insight from Launch.
“The first lesson I learned
was just how hard it really is
to start a company, and when
I do it, I want to make sure
I’m super passionate about
the idea,” Henriod said.
Dina Mills, program
manager at Launch, said the
incubator will accept six to 12
entrepreneurs into its 22-week
program. She said Launch usually receives about three applications for each available spot.
Launch requires applicants
to fill out an online application
and interview with a committee made up of local entrepre-

neurs and people affiliated with

Mills said admitted applicants have good ideas, a scalable business and an interest
in growing the local entrepreneurial community.
“The idea is to support
and develop high-growing
businesses in Chapel Hill
and Orange County that then
remain in the community and
support and grow and create
jobs,” Mills said.
Michelle Bolas, program
director at Innovate Carolina,
said Launch fills Chapel Hill’s
need for an affordable business
accelerator and provides startups with mentors, potential
investors and accounting and
legal advice.
“Before Launch, we had
to direct our companies to
Durham,” Bolas said. “For
those that want to stay and
contribute to the Chapel Hill
economy and be part of our
community, we want to make
that available, so Launch has
filled that need.”
Fred Stutzman, founder
of technology startup Eighty
Percent Solutions and a former
Launch participant, said he
appreciated the help.
“It’s given us a lot of networking in the community
and the ability to meet people
in the community, both advisors and mentors and potential employees; it’s given us a
place to start our business and
have the credibility of having
an office space,” he said.
“All of those things added up
to helping us grow quite a bit.”

WOMEN’S SOCCER: VIRGINIA 2, NORTH CAROLINA 0
Virginia stomps out Tar Heels’ attack
UNC didn’t score for
the first time since
Aug. 31 at Pepperdine.
By Andrew Tie
Staff Writer
GREENSBORO — North
Carolina sophomore forward Emily Bruder walked
off the field Friday at UNCGreensboro’s Soccer Stadium
at halftime after 45 minutes
of futile attempts to break
Virginia’s defense. No matter
what, the girl with a teamhigh five goals in four games,
couldn’t find one opening.
No. 4 Virginia (18-1-0,
9-1-0 ACC) controlled the
first half of the ACC women’s
soccer semifinal, taking a
two-goal lead while stunting
the Tar Heels’ attack.
“Usually with (Bruder),
she’s got enough pace and size
to make it difficult for defenses,” Coach Anson Dorrance
said. “The thing she declared
at the half is how much faster
(Virginia defender Emily)
Sonnett was than she was.”
Throughout the night, the
Cavalier defense stifled No.
5 UNC’s (12-3-2, 9-0-1 ACC)
forwards, leading to a 2-0 win
in the conference foes’ first and
only match of the year. UNC
hadn’t been held scoreless
since a 1-0 loss at Pepperdine
on August 31, coincidentally
the last loss for the Tar Heels.
“We knew coming into this
game their midfield was probably the best in the country,”
said midfielder Katie Bowen.
“They broke down our team
and were able to create the
chances themselves.”
No matter what attacker
Dorrance threw out from
his deep bench — Bruder,
Summer Green, Jessie Scarpa,
Amber Munerlyn, Paige
Nielsen — Sonnett, a secondteam All-ACC selection, and
her teammates intervened.
“I think their back line was
really good, a lot better than I
expected,” said senior defender Satara Murray. “They were
shutting down our players in
every moment of the game.”
Murray said the key to the
offense starts with the passing
from the midfield, but that
“They broke down
our team and were
able to create the
chances themselves.”
Katie Bowen,
Junior midfielder
was also held in check.
“Not having distributors
up to our front line hurt us a
little bit, but Virginia’s back
line did a really good job
with holding our forwards,”
Murray said. “Girls the size
of Emily Bruder, she’s kind of
hard to mark at times from
personally marking her in
practice, but they did a really,
really good job on her today.”
The lackluster offensive
performance from UNC
didn’t fit the much stronger
display throughout the regular season. Dorrance brought
up the fact that sports statistical group BennettRank rated
UNC’s offense as the fourth
best in the country adjusted
for strength of schedule.
“If we look at our attack,
I’m actually shocked at how

well we’ve done,” Dorrance
said. “Have we done it
through a superstar system?
No. We’ve done it through
grinding and having everyone
take their moment.”
Dorrance went on to explain
that Virginia controlling the
time of possession on offense
makes its defense so good.
“Even though that’s not
a defensive quality that you
would point out as, ‘This is
the way you defend,’ it’s actu-
ally a pretty good philosophy,”
Dorrance said. “If you can
keep the ball, that means the
other team doesn’t have it so
you don’t have to defend.”

SWIMMING: WOMEN 1ST PLACE, MEN 2ND PLACE IN DUAL MEET
Diving steps up for both men and women
By Caleb Waters
Staff Writer
When asked whether this
weekend’s meet at Louisville
was preparation for the
future of the season, North
Carolina swimming and
diving coach Rich DeSelm’s
answer was simple.
“It has to be.
“We won the women’s meet,”
he said. “It wasn’t pretty, but
we won it. We didn’t win the
men’s meet. The takeaway is
we have to be better for having
gone through both of those
experiences: a win and a loss.
We have to be better and better prepared next time out.
Otherwise we are not learning
from our experiences.”
The Tar Heels traveled to
Louisville for a two-day dual
meet against the Cardinals
that took place Friday night
and Saturday morning. The
women’s team, although
down by one point after
Friday’s events, went on to
win the meet 194-159, while
the men struggled throughout
the weekend, losing 220-133.
Junior Emma Nunn, who
took first in both the 500and 1000-yard freestyles,
said the team had to adjust
because the meet was unfamiliar territory for North
UNC B-teams end cross
country regular season
By Danielle Herman
Senior Writer
It was the last regular
season meet for the North
Carolina men’s and women’s
cross country teams, but for
many runners, it was their first
cross country race of the year.
Members of UNC’s
non-travel team competed
Saturday at the Adidas Three
Stripe Invitational at the
WakeMed Cross Country
Course in Cary. The varsity
squads took the weekend
off to prepare for the NCAA
regional, which begins Friday.
Neither team raced enough
runners to tally a team score
— there need to be five runners for each team to have
a score — but Coach Mark
VanAlstyne said he was happy
with the individual results.
“We really wanted to get a
look at some of our athletes
that were both redshirting
and running here unattached,
as well as athletes that didn’t
make the travel squad for
the ACC meet,” he said. “I
thought they acquitted themselves really well.”
Redshirt sophomore
Mitch McLeod led the
men’s team with a secondplace finish overall. Seniors
Braedon Koerwitz and Dan
Mykityshyn both placed in
the top 10, and senior Bryan
Noreen finished 16th.
McLeod was the only
member of the men’s team
that raced Saturday who
had also raced at the ACC
Championship, where he finished 71st in the 8K.
McLeod said he thought the
meet was a good opportunity
for those who had redshirted to
get a chance to compete.
“I guess as a team we did
alright. This unit that ran
today is kind of focused on
track now, just because we’re
done,” he said.
On the women’s side, sophomore Jill Hardies led the way
with an eighth-place finish.
Hardies redshirted last season
and hadn’t raced a cross country meet since the state meet of
her senior year of high school.
“It was definitely an adjustment getting used to the hurt
again,” she said. “But it was
good; I was happy with it. I
felt like I was mentally in it
the whole time.”
Hardies was followed by
junior Caroline O’Hea, who
placed 10th. Freshman Emma
Astrike-Davis — the only other
UNC athlete who competed
Saturday who had also competed at ACC’s — placed 12th,
and senior Kylie McCoy placed
20th to finish out the race.
“I was thrilled for Jill
Hardies and Caroline O’Hea,”
VanAlstyne said. “They’ve
worked really hard this year
and came up just short of
making our ACC and NCAA
squads, so to see them have a
good race and that their hard
work is paying off is nice.”
Hardies said she and other
members on the team wish
they could have had a few more
racing opportunities this season, but they are ready to carry
their training into track season.
“I think we’re all happy
with it, especially the girls
who haven’t raced at all this
season,” she said. “We just
need to keep the momentum
going, and we’ve had a solid
block of training during cross
country, so that’s very important to carry over into track.”
Carolina.
“It was a combination of a
lot of things, but I think most
of it was that in the events we
weren’t going to win, we had to
be two, three, four,” Nunn said.
“We had to get behind each
other and be enthusiastic and
not let it scare us because we
have had such an amazing season — it was bizarre not to be,
for once, gliding through it.”
Despite the men’s loss, the
divers pulled their weight and
won all of the events.
Sophomore Jack Nyquist
took first place in both the onemeter and three-meter, scoring
342.37 and 423.82 respectively.
Freshman Elissa Dawson had
the same results in women’s
diving, grabbing two firsts and
scoring 323.48 and 384.08.
Nyquist said having competitive teammates helps
everyone.
“Elissa Dawson and
Michole Timm are both
incredible female divers,”
Nyquist said. “They are
some of the best in the country, for sure. Seeing (Elissa)
have success, seeing Michole
have success, drives me to
want more.”
“Everyone is in it to win it,
for sure. There’s not a face on
the team that doesn’t think
they can make conference,
make NCAAs.”
DeSelm and Nunn both
stated that depth was a key to
the UNC women’s success.
“I think going into it we
knew that Louisville had a lot
of superstars, but I think we
were surprised the first day at
how much deeper they were
than we thought they were,”
Nunn said.
“Not that they were deeper
than us, but they were pretty
formidable.”
DeSelm said it made the
difference.
“On the second day, I
think our depth pretty much
overtook the competition,”
DeSelm said.
“Louisville is really good,
but we were just deeper. In
a dual meet, the depth does
count for a lot, and we were
able to come out victorious.”

Quarterfinal woes Cavs outpace UNC
No. 1 Tar Heels
continue for UNC in ACC tournament drop it in overtime
By Jeremy Vernon
Staff Writer
It was all too familiar.
Heading into the final 15
minutes of its match against
Louisville Sunday, the North
Carolina men’s soccer team
looked poised to move into the
ACC Championship semifinals
and extend its unbeaten streak
to a nation’s best nine games.
After a scoreless first half
against the sixth-seeded
Cardinals, 3-seed UNC came
out in the second half determined to claim the lead.
But late in the game, a feeling of deja vu began to fill the
air at Fetzer Field. And much
like it did in the Tar Heels’
2-1 ACC quarterfinals defeat
against Clemson in 2013, the
game slipped away, and UNC
found itself on the wrong side
of a 1-0 loss.
In the 76th minute, the
Cardinals’ Ricardo Velazco
intercepted a wary pass from
the UNC defense and streaked
down the middle of the field.
As Velazco continued his
run toward the UNC box, Tar
Heel defenders Walker Hume
and Boyd Okwuonu charged
forward but in the process left
a space for Ivan Gutierrez to
slip in behind.
After Velazco’s right-footed
pass traveled between the
outstretched legs of Hume
and Okwuonu, Gutierrez
found himself alone with
goalkeeper Brendan Moore
and calmly converted to
give Louisville a lead that it
wouldn’t relinquish.
“It was self-inflicted,” said
Okwuonu when asked about
the pivotal counterattack that
lifted the Cardinals.
“It was just one step up,
and it was a minor mistake,”
he said. “But one mistake can
cost you the game.”
In 2013, defensive miscues
sunk the Tar Heels in their
quarterfinal matchup against
Clemson, as the Tigers converted twice in the game’s
final 15 minutes to break
UNC’s heart.
Sunday, another blunder
overshadowed 75 minutes of
strong defensive play, and the
same feelings returned.
“They had some balls in
behind us, but we dealt with
them, and we didn’t really
allow them to do anything
dangerous,” Moore said.
“But you can’t do that for 90
minutes straight, and we lost
again because of it.”
The similarities don’t stop
there.
Senior Andy Craven didn’t
play in the 2013 game against
Clemson after suffering a
season-ending injury. Sunday,
Craven might as well have not
been playing, as the Cardinal
defenders held the star senior
to just one shot.
And much like in 2013,
Coach Carlos Somoano was
noticeably upset after a Tar
Heel loss. But, as Somoano
said after the game Sunday,
this wasn’t something that was
exclusive to the games against
Clemson and Louisville.
“I’m frustrated that we
didn’t win today,” he said.
“I’m frustrated that we didn’t
beat Duke, Notre Dame and
Wilmington. I’m frustrated
we didn’t beat UCLA, and
next time we lose a game I’ll
be frustrated too.”
“I don’t like losing, and I
don’t think our guys do either.”

Online Assistant Editor
GREENSBORO — For
Anson Dorrance, the No. 5
North Carolina women’s soccer team’s ACC Tournament
semifinal match against
Virginia was similar to the
classic children’s tale of the
tortoise and the hare.
But unlike the story’s
outcome, the tortoise didn’t
prevail on Friday at UNCG
Soccer Stadium, as the No. 4
Cavaliers’ midfielders ran circles around the UNC defense
en route to a 2-0 win.
“Trust me, today, a little
speed in the middle of midfield would have helped us a
little, considering we had my
turtles chasing their jackrabbits,” Dorrance said.
Both goals, which were
scored in the first 30 minutes,
were set up by UVa. midfielders Danielle Colaprico and
Alexis Shaffer. Colaprico leads
the ACC with 15 assists.
“We knew coming into
this game that their midfield
was probably the best in the
country, so I feel like they
were able to break down the
team and create the chances
themselves,” junior midfielder
Katie Bowen said. “All credit
to them. Their frontline and
midfield are class.”
At the start of the game,
the Tar Heels could not keep
up with the speed of the
Cavaliers’ midfielders, who
helped them dominate possession. They outshot UNC
8-2 in the first half.
Shaffer broke away in the
11th minute and sent a pass
to Makenzy Doniak, who was
waiting in between two UNC
defenders to finish and give
the Cavaliers a 1-0 lead.
As the Tar Heels struggled
to create chances, Colaprico
found Morgan Reuther,
who curved the shot to the
center of the goal, past the
outstretched arm of UNC
goalkeeper Bryane Heaberlin
in the 29th minute.
“Part of Virginia’s ability to
defend is to not let the other
team have the ball much, and
that was certainly the case in
the first half,” Dorrance said.
Despite being dominated,
North Carolina had its best
scoring opportunity with seconds to go in the first half.
Darcy McFarlane found the
ball on a corner from Amanda
Rooney and placed it perfectly
past the keeper — the only
problem was Virginia defender Megan Reid was waiting to
head the ball away.
“I think that would really
have turned the game had they
got that one before halftime in
that situation,” Virginia Coach
Steve Swanson said.
In the second half, the Tar
Heels were able to buckle
down defensively and prevent
chances — but the damage had
already been done.
“This pace that Virginia
was required to play at to
dominate us in the first half,
and then we continued that
same pace and by the second
half, Virginia struggled to stay
at that pace,” Dorrance said.
After allowing eight shots in
the first half to the Cavaliers,
the UNC defense gave them
just two in the second, neither
of which were on goal.
Despite slowing down the
hare in the second half, the
tortoise still couldn’t catch up.

DURHAM — It takes
something special to knock
off a top ranked team.
Syracuse forward Emma
Russell is pretty special.
Just 24 hours removed
from setting an ACC tournament record with four goals
against No. 9 Boston College,
Russell was at it again. This
time at the expense of the No.
1 UNC field hockey team.
Almost eight minutes into
the first period of suddendeath overtime Friday,
Russell blasted an impressive
back-handed shot past UNC
goalkeeper Shannon Johnson
to upset the Tar Heels 3-2
and send Syracuse to the ACC
Tournament championship.
“That’s a remarkable player,” Coach Karen Shelton said
of Russell. “We knew that
she was going to be good. We
talked about putting her on a
short leash, and then she got
away from us a little bit, so
we’ve got to be better.”
Russell got the scoring
started just over 15 minutes
in, eluding a UNC defender
with a spin move before sending a shot past Johnson. The
Tar Heels answered 13 minutes later, when junior forward Casey Di Nardo tipped
in a pass from Emma Bozek
at the front of the cage.
With fewer than two minutes to play in the first half,
senior forward Charlotte
Craddock put the Tar Heels
ahead 2-1 with a put-back goal
off a rebound. It was her first
goal since an overtime game-
winner against No. 11 Wake
Forest on Oct. 25.
Syracuse head coach Ange
Bradley apparently had plenty
to say to her team at halftime.
With fewer than 30 seconds
on the halftime clock and all
the UNC players on the field,
Syracuse was nowhere to be
found. The first Orange player
finally emerged from the locker room with just 15 seconds
to spare, and whatever Bradley
told her girls, it worked.
The Orange came out hot,
controlling the ball for the
majority of the half. Johnson
was able to keep the Orange
out of the cage for a while, but
Syracuse’s onslaught of shots
and five penalty corners proved
to eventually be too much.
Freshman Lieke Visser tied
the game at two for the Orange
with just over 15 minutes left.
UNC managed just two
second-half shots and went
shotless for a 22-minute span.
“They just came out stronger in the second half and
wanted it a little bit more,” Di
Nardo said.
Russell’s overtime gamewinner gave her back-to-back
record-breaking days. Her six
goals in the tournament are a
new ACC record.
The Tar Heels would have
liked a chance at Wake Forest
for the ACC championship, but
with the NCAA tournament
days away and chances of UNC
hosting the first two rounds
almost certain, Shelton and
her players still seemed calm.
“Dean Smith used to talk
about this all the time: In the
ACC tournament, if you go
out early, all it means is you
get a little more rest going
into the NCAA postseason,”
Shelton said. “We’ve got
larger games ahead.”

MEN’S BASKETBALL: NORTH CAROLINA 112, BELMONT ABBEY 34
J.P. Tokoto chooses pass over flash Friday
Tokoto led UNC in
assists while shedding
his dunking persona.
By Pat James
Assistant Sports Editor
North Carolina junior forward J.P. Tokoto received the
ball in transition.
The fans in the Smith
Center watched as the highflying forward dribbled down
the floor on the break — in
anticipation of the potential
highlight-reel play Tokoto
would conjure as he has done
throughout his UNC career.
But as Tokoto approached
the Belmont Abbey defender
near the UNC basket —
instead of preparing for liftoff
— the Tar Heel high-riser
dished the ball to freshman
forward Justin Jackson at the
last second for an effortless
layup. Jackson’s layup gave
him 16 points on the night,
which led all scorers in UNC’s
112-34 trouncing of the
Crusaders on Friday night.
“Once I take that last
dribble, that’s when I decide
what to do, and if he keeps
backing up, I’m going to go
for the layup or the dunk,”
said Tokoto about the assist.
“If he chooses me, then I’m
just going to dish it off. I just
dished it off to Justin nicely.
“It’s a lot of easy plays.
You’ve just got to take your
time. Like coach always says,
‘Just make the extra pass,
make the easy play.’”
And as he did throughout
the night, Tokoto made that
extra pass. In fact, he made it
six times en route to leading
the Tar Heels with six assists
— tying a career high he set
on three separate occasions
during the 2013-14 season.
But even more impressive
than Tokoto’s six assists were
the zero turnovers that accompanied them on the stat sheet.
“That’s even better because
I talk to him all of the time,”
Coach Roy Williams said. “He
has the best eyes of any guy
on our team right now about
seeing things, but sometimes
he fails to see the defensive
player. It’s like a bad quarterback throwing in traffic all
of the time. But he made the
easy play every single time
tonight, and it worked.”
While Tokoto finished last
season with 103 assists —
second only to junior guard
Marcus Paige — the turnoverprone forward tallied 64 turnovers during UNC’s 34 games.
Tokoto said limiting such
mishaps was a major part of
his off-season training and
cutting back on turnovers
relied on improving one area
of his game in particular.
“Ball handling,” Tokoto
said. “A lot of it last year was,
‘Okay, I see the guy. I’ve got
to get it out of my hands right
now.’ And last year, my ball
handling wasn’t up to where
it needed to be. I worked on
that over the summer with
Coach (Hubert) Davis, and it’s
proved to work out so far.”
Kennedy Meeks couldn’t
agree more. The sophomore
forward, who finished with 14
points, was on the receiving
end of two of Tokoto’s assists.
In the waning minutes of
the first half, Tokoto received
a pass from sophomore guard
Nate Britt on the right side
of the floor. Tokoto took one
dribble toward the basket —
and while looking the other
direction — slipped a bounce
pass underneath the arm of his
defender to Meeks for a layup.
“I think he sees everything.
No matter if he’s looking away
or not, I think he knows that
you’re there,” Meeks said. “I
think he knows that’s where
you should be, and he takes
advantage of that.”
The play might not have
been as flashy as the dunks that
have garnered Tokoto the ranking as ESPN’s No. 7 dunker
in the country — a ranking he
backed up with multiple slams,
including one in which he took
flight following a 360-spin past
his defender.
But for the UNC forward
whose reputation as a dunker
precedes him, Meeks said
Tokoto’s ability to finish at the
rim as well as to find the open
man makes him a key dualthreat for the Tar Heels.
“If he’s going to the basket,
people are going to sag off,”
Meeks said. “It’s open shots
for Marcus open shots for
Nate. If he’s out on the wing,
they’re going to come out, and
it’s easy buckets for us. He’s a
great piece of our team. He’s
a great asset to our team. He’s
one of the most important
people on our team.”
