WEEKLY SUMMER ISSUE
UNC senior remembered for his passion
By Bradley Saacks
University Editor
Micaela Percy thought her time
went too fast.
After meeting Harris Pharr in
April, Percy, a UNC junior, said they
spoke everyday and began dating.
It happened so fast, Percy said.
We just both knew that we were
each others, and we didnt need any-
one else.
Pharr, a UNC senior, died Thursday
at the age of 21. The cause of death is
yet to be determined as police await
the autopsy and toxicology reports.
I only got him for three months,
and I got to know myself better in
that time than I have in my entire
life, Percy said. My biggest regret
is that I didnt get enough time with
him. To have someone who I loved
so much ripped away from me was
awful you just feel like your whole
world is cracking, that you ll never
be happy again.
Harris Pharr died on
Thursday at the age of 21
in Chapel Hill.
Harris Pharr was 21
years old and a UNC
senior studying bio-
medical engineering,
physics and Spanish
at UNC. He was the
rush chairman of Chi
Phi fraternity.
Pharr, who graduated from
Raleighs Needham B. Broughton
High School in 2011, was majoring
in biomedical engineering at UNC
with minors in physics and Spanish.
He was also a member of Chi Phi
fraternity.
Chi Phi President Angus
Robertson said the fraternity was
deeply saddened when they learned
of Pharrs death. Pharr had been the
rush chairman for the fraternity.
Harris was an intelligent, car-
ing and genuine young man and an
irreplaceable presence in our house,
Robertson said. He was a steadfast
friend to all who knew him, and he
will be dearly missed.
Pharrs mother, Jodi Pharr,
described him as a motivated person
who was always interested in learning.
He was so curious about anything
and everything, Jodi Pharr said.
Percy echoed her sentiment.
Im never going to meet someone
like him again, she said. He always
knew he was heading for something
greater ... he was brilliant.
Despite moving from Florida and
living in North Carolina for less than
a year before attending UNC, Jodi
Pharr said her son loved UNC.
He loved the professors, he loved
the challenges that UNC presented,
he loved the sports, she said.
Percy said Harris Pharr was one

Teacher Raymond Thomas chats with his coworkers at Carrboro High School. Thomas is one of many teachers who advocate for K-12 tenure.
Former UNC forward James Michael McAdoo participated in his tenth pre-draft NBA workout
last Thursday with the Washington Wizards. The 2014 NBA draft will take place today.
TEACHER RIGHTS IN QUESTION
By Sharon Nunn
Senior Writer
In 2000, engineer Raymond Thomas left an
annual salary of $70,000 to teach and nurture
students passion for science.
Fourteen years later, my pay is still not back
up to where I was when I left the (research)
industry, said Thomas, who is now a Carrboro
High School science teacher. So I think that says
a lot about pay for teachers.
The average salary for K-12 teachers in North
Carolina was ranked 46th in the U.S. in 2012.
State budget proposals for the 2014-15 fiscal year
try to address stagnant teacher pay, but teachers
legal rights may be at risk.
The national average for teacher salaries in
2011-12 was $55,418 per year, according to the
National Education Association. North Carolinas
average teacher pay was $45,947.
In the budget proposed by the N.C. Senate,
teachers could see an average 11.2 percent base sala-
ry raise, but only if they agree to give up their career
status rights, commonly referred to as K-12 tenure.
K-12 tenure guarantees teachers who have
earned career status the right to request a hearing if
they are dismissed and excludes them from annual
re-evaluation to keep their positions. After a K-12
teacher works for four years, his or her school dis-
trict board can vote on granting career status.
An ethical issue
Thomas said K-12 tenure in North Carolina
does not always guarantee job protection.
At the university level, tenure is a very
strong job guarantee whereas (K-12) teacher
tenure is more a series of not job protection,
but job rights in terms of having a hearing
Low pay harms K-12 teacher recruitment and retention

McAdoo seeks new path in NBA
By Aaron Dodson
Senior Writer
WASHINGTON Relief.
That is the one emotion James Michael
McAdoo says hes been waiting to feel, maybe
for the past three years at North Carolina but
especially for the last few months.
Since April, McAdoo has heard everything
all the questions surrounding his decision to
forgo his senior year to play at the next level.
But if his name is called in tonights NBA
draft, McAdoo knows the criticism will no lon-
ger matter. He will finally be able to exhale.
Its going to be a relief. Honestly, after all
these years, especially after these last couple
weeks have just been crazy, said McAdoo after a
pre-draft workout with the Washington Wizards
last Thursday. You lay your head down at night
and are just like, Man. Its coming.
McAdoo shocked Chapel Hill, and perhaps
the nation, April 3 when he announced he
would leave school early to enter the NBA draft.
I knew it was time, McAdoo said. I was
ready to take the next step in my journey, no
matter where I was projected, or what people
were saying. Just for myself.
But even more shocking may have
been what he did the day before his draft
announcement. On April 2, McAdoo went
with his longtime girlfriend and UNC volley-
ball player Lauren Adkins to the Chapel Hill
police station, where the couple got legally
married by a justice of the peace.
McAdoo said he and Adkins did not tell
many people about their plans to get married,
except for their parents.
It was something we thought about. It
wasnt anything crazy. I love her. It seemed like
the right time. It was the right time, McAdoo
said. We didnt really tell anybody, but obvi-
ously Chapel Hill is such a small place, every-
one finds out about everything after a while.
The cat got out of the bag pretty quick.
There was no doubt McAdoos two deci-
sions were sudden and soon rumors began
to surface. After the Wizards workout, he
brought up the one thing he knew was on
everyones mind, expelling it as a myth.
Obviously, everyone thought Lauren was
pregnant, which is crazy because if anyone
knows me they know that Im not that type of
kid, he said. All this traveling Ive done, theres
these horrible kids on the airplane and stuff.
Im just like, Theres no way Im having a kid
any time soon. So no, shes not pregnant.
Within a matter of two days, McAdoo
became both a married and working man.
After choosing UNC over the NBA each of the
last two seasons, he could not put his dream
on hold any longer.
McAdoo ended his career with 1,232 points
and 640 rebounds in 108 games as a Tar Heel.
Hes been extremely important to North
Carolina basketball..., Coach Roy Williams
said in a statement after McAdoos announce-
ment. We support him 100 percent in his
decision, wish him nothing but the best in his
professional career...
Duke guard Andre Dawkins, a fellow Virginia
native and longtime friend of McAdoos, also
supported his decision, but said he was sur-
prised McAdoo did not leave UNC earlier.
After his freshman season, McAdoo was a
projected lottery pick. Now, he is speculated to
be a late second-round pick as DraftExpress.
coms 74th-ranked prospect in the draft class.
I thought, after his freshman year, he might
have come out, said Dawkins after participating
in the Wizards workout with McAdoo. But, to
each his own. Every guy has to make his own
decision, and he felt like that was the best deci-
sion for him and his family, and I wish him the
best.
McAdoo admits he cannot help but think
about how his life would be different if he had
entered the draft after his freshman year. But
at the same time, hes focused on now.
Within the last two months, he has partici-
pated in pre-draft workouts for 13 NBA teams.
McAdoo is not too shy to say he did not special-
The former UNC forward hopes
to be selected in tonights draft.
County approves
2-cent property
tax increase
By Jonathan Moyer
City Editor
When the Orange County Board of
Commissioners reviewed the budget for
2014-15, there was one important change
they needed to make.
The boards vice-chairman Earl McKee said
the budget was well thought out, but it failed
to accommodate cuts to education made by
the state. The commissioners voted to raise
property taxes by two cents, raising the overall
tax to 87.8 cents per $100 of assessed value,
according to the approved budget.
The added tax revenue will be given to
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools and
Orange County Schools. Interim County
Manager Michael Talbert said an additional
$3.276 million would come out of the tax
and go to the schools, although he did not
know what exactly it would be used for.
I expect they ll use it to supplant funding
that has been cut by the state, he said. They
have a lot of latitude for how they spend.
McKee said of the $200 million budget,
almost $98 million would go to schools,
which amounts to nearly 49 percent.
Talbert said this complied with the coun-
tys goal to have 48.1 percent of the budget go
toward education. He said he was proud the
county has met their target for several years.
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools will
receive more of the money overall than Orange
County Schools, according to the budget.
Talbert said he did not monitor how the
schools used the money given to them, as it
was not strictly regulated by the county.
According to the budget, more than $72
million of the $97 million allotted will go

unway 22 of LaGuardia Airport rudely interrupted a drunken
threesome this week when the boat hosting the orgy took
an unfortunate turn right into the runway. The unanchored
and unpiloted sex vessel smashed into the airport pier, leav-
ing broken bones and a national security risk. Whats that you say? Oh
yes, the promiscuous trio caused a national security risk because the boat
exposed a huge hole in the airports security. Had the occupants had any
malintent, they would have had little to no resistance because the Port
Authority did not have any crew to dispatch, and any number of projec-
tile weapons could have reached planes from their position. Comforting
to know that a few drunk lovebirds exposed such a huge breach. Greattttt.

Danny Green, former North
Carolina basketball player and
member of the 2009 NCAA champi-
onship team, and the San Antonio
Spurs were crowned NBA champions
June 15 making Green, Michael
Jordan and James Worthy the only
Tar Heels to win both NCAA and
NBA championships.
Staff writer Joey DeVito spoke
over the phone with Green about
winning championships at both
levels, his NBA journey, Rashad
McCants comments and whats
ahead for Green and the team.
THE DAILY TAR HEEL: How does it
feel to be an NBA champion?
DANNY GREEN: It still really hasnt
hit me yet, but its a big-time relief
to end the season the way we did
this year than last year, I ll tell you
that. You know, things have been
really hectic, busy. Everybody is try-
ing to contact you to get some things
done, appearances and interviews,
but its a good hectic, and its been a
lot of fun. For the most part, Im just
enjoying it right now, trying to relax.
DTH: Yourself, Michael Jordan and
James Worthy are the only players
to win a championship at UNC and
in the NBA. How does it feel to be in
the same category as those two guys?
DG: Its kind of hard to believe, you
know? To be mentioned with those
names is a real honor. Obviously its
not as big of an achievement of doing
other things you know all-stars or
points or MVPs or this or that but
these are accolades. In the winning
category, to be in the same sentence
or category with those names, like I
said, is an honor, and its really hard
to believe, but that lets you know how
rare it is. Im glad that this year we
took advantage of our opportunity
and got ourselves a chance to come
out on top.
DTH: Was winning the Finals this
year a different feeling than winning
the NCAA championship. How so?
DG: Well, the NCAA champion-
ship is a one-game elimination, and a
college season is only 30-something
games. You have to win, what, eight
to win it all or six games to win the
tournament. You have to win 16
games in the playoffs against very
good teams that are hard to beat
four times in a series, so, you know,
scouting reports, a longer season, its
tough. Its a lot harder.
In the NCAA, any team can get
hot, be healthy, get lucky playing at
the right time and win, and thats
also hard, too. More luck has to
do with the NCAA with one being
healthy and playing well. In this one,
theres a little bit of that, but its more
so the more prepared team, the more
executed, focused and intense team.
DTH: You seem to save some of
your biggest games for the biggest
moments. What has allowed you to
succeed under that kind of pressure?
DG: I think its just easy for myself
and some other individuals to focus
on one thing, and in the playoffs, you
have time to really relax, focus on our
bodies and focus on our assignments
at hand and try to maximize the best
of our ability. I know what my roles
are. I know what my openings and
schemes, and offensively and defen-
sively what Im supposed to do against
this team or that team, and Im going
to do the best I can each game just
to get better at it and execute it a lot
better, be a smarter player. We have a
team full of high-IQ guys, and thats
how we thrive. We play better when
were able to focus on one thing, one
particular area at that time being.
Thats a big key for us, given the stuff
that happened these past couple years.
DTH: In just a few years, you went
from being in the NBA Development
League to starting on a champion-
ship team. What did you have to do
to end up where you are now?
DG: A lot of preparation, a lot of
hard work and consistent daily grind.
Non-stop, you know? A lot of hours
in the gym and also a good amount
of luck on my side. How do you crack
a starting lineup on a team like the
Spurs that have been playing great for
17 years? I worked hard, and luckily
some things opened up to where I got
the opportunity, and I took advantage
of my opportunity. I showed them
that I could do a little bit, and they
started to trust me a little more, little
by little, and it started to go my way
a little bit. Like I said, it took a lot of
luck but also a lot of hours in the gym.
Its all about timing with everything.
Anybody will tell you in this league
and with all leagues, its all about tim-
ing. Sometimes you need luck on your
side, and lucky for me, I had a little bit
of it. You need luck to be part of this
organization.
DTH: Was there ever a point play-
ing that you felt like your NBA
career was over?
DG: I wouldnt say over, but it
definitely started to diminish as the
months went on. There were two
months when I was at home where I
wasnt playing anywhere, and it was
my first time having Thanksgiving
and spending Christmas with my
family since I left for college. So I
guess it started to diminish then, and
I was just happy to be playing in the
D-League when I got there. I was
there for two months, and towards
the end of it, it started to dimin-
ish even more. I kept confident, I
kept pushing and I kept working,
and luckily I got a call. From then
on out, things started going uphill.
Sometimes it goes that way. I figured
eventually, if I keep working, some-
thing good was going to turn out.
DTH: Obviously Rashad McCants
was big news around Chapel Hill and
the country. What was your reaction
when you heard what he said?
DG: I was pretty shocked. I heard

5-year curriculum for
new education majors

Ashley Shaver, a senior elementary education student, sits on the steps of Peabody Hall, the academic building for the School of
Education. All incoming freshmen in the school will be required to stay for five years and will earn a masters degree.
Program combines bachelors, masters degrees
By Jane Wester
Senior Writer
Incoming freshmen planning to
major in education should start rear-
ranging their schedules they ll be
the first class in the UNC School of
Education required to stay for a fifth
year.
The new program signals the end
of the four-year bachelors degree cur-
rently offered at the school.
Instead, all undergraduate students
will graduate with a masters degree,
teaching license and more of the class-
room experience that administrators,
students and alumni say is critical for
success.
UNC senior Ashley Shaver, an ele-
mentary education major in the School
of Education, said she is still learning
about the program but thinks it could
provide a competitive edge for new
graduates.
If it were offered for my age, if I
could go back, I would love to have
done it, she said.
The School of Educations stand-
alone masters program will remain,
along with the education minor for
undergraduate students and the UNC-
BEST program. The BEST program
allows science majors in the College
of Arts and Sciences to earn a teach-
ing license alongside their bachelors
degree.
Though the new five-year program
will mean students invest more time
and money at the start of their careers,
senior Brittanie Howard, a middle
grades education major, said the pro-
gram would save time and money in
the long run.
Most of us who are graduating
would probably plan on or even have
to go forward and get our masters
degree in education, so to be able
to combine it with something were
already doing I definitely think
that ll be helpful, she said.
Dean of the School of Education Bill
McDiarmid said the fifth year will give
the students time to focus on clinical
practice in classrooms.
You ll have that grounding in the
classroom so when you go into your
own classroom, you ll not only have
the skills and knowledge that you need
to succeed, you ll have the confidence
that you can do the job, he said.
Howard said undergraduate educa-
tion students already work in a class-
room two hours per week their junior
year and forty hours per week in the
spring semester of senior year, but
more classroom experience could help.
The masters program students do
a lot more classroom time than the
undergrad students do, so (the new
program would be) like streamlining
the undergraduate students into that
classroom time you get as a graduate

student, she said.
Shaver said the benefits of class-
room experience cannot be underesti-
mated.
You can read a textbook and hear
from your professor day in and day out
and you need that, but theres noth-
ing that can replace being an actual
teacher interacting with her actual stu-
dents, she said.
Associate Dean Deborah Eaker-
Rich said the plan has been approved
by the faculty and the Provost but still
must pass through official channels.
Its the checks and balances of the
University, she said. Its the admin-
istrative boards of the College of Arts
and Sciences and the graduate school,
those two administrative boards (need
to approve it). Then it will go up to the
general administration.
Eaker-Rich and McDiarmid both
said the administration has been sup-
portive throughout the conception
of the program and is expected to
approve the plan without difficulty.
McDiarmid and Eaker-Rich said
they expect to hear concerns about the
financial burden of the extra year but
plan to offer a part-time scheduling
option and more graduate fellowships
so that students can find financial sup-
port.

Q&A with former UNC basketball player Danny Green
By Paige Ladisic
Summer Editor
East End Oyster & Martini
Bar will officially close its
doors on Saturday, but
Country Nights will live on
downstairs at Deep End.
Owner Howard McDonald
said he has separate leases
for East End, which is on
the ground level at 201 E.
Franklin St., and Deep End,
which is in the basement
making it easy to keep Deep
End and Country Night alive.
Its going to be really easy
for us to continue to operate
downstairs and really focus
our energy in the Deep End,
McDonald said.
A press release from East
End cited financial difficul-
ties, increased competition
and high operating costs as
reasons behind East End clos-
ing, but McDonald said Deep
End will stay open with the
same staff, drink specials, and
Country Night.
Were just not doing the
business to keep it going on
this floor, McDonald said.
The rent is really high on
this floor.
East Ends last official
night will be Saturday, and
McDonald said he hopes
everyone who loves the bar
and the staff will come out for
one last celebration.
We really just want to
thank the community for the
time that weve had here, he
said.
McDonald said the only
change to Tuesdays popular
Country Nights will be a
change to age requirements.
Men will need to be 21 or
older on Country Night, but
18-and-up women will still
be admitted. McDonald said
this change comes only from
a need for space.
Rodney Huskins, general
manager of East End, said
after closing the top floor,
he and the staff will focus on
bringing more people to Deep
End. He said they are consid-
ering adding karaoke, trivia
and live music every week.
Were gonna concentrate
on making Deep End the
place for college students
to go the college bar in
Chapel Hill, Huskins said.
Ive thought for years that
if someone had that floor to
concentrate on, it could kill it.
East End originally opened
as a restaurant in 2001,
although McDonald said he
and his business partners
bought it in May 2002. In
2009, McDonald said he
bought out his last business
partner and reopened the
kitchen at East End, but they
decided to close the kitchen
again because of high costs.
Chris Carini, the owner of
East Ends Franklin Street
neighbor, Lindas Bar and
Grill, said he and McDonald
have had a working relation-
ship for many years.
Its nice to work with a
constant professional, Carini
said.
Huskins said he has
worked at the bar for eight
years and is thankful to the
people who have supported
East End since it opened.
The staff here has been
the best staff in Chapel Hill, I
believe, since the time weve
been open, Huskins said.
Howard (McDonald) has
been the best owner and boss
anyone could work for.
Being a business in Chapel
Hill is just as hard as its
always been, Carini said.
You have to appeal to so
many different groups, and you
have to do so without trying to.

about it. People were saying stuff
about it, but I really didnt believe
that. I had to see it for myself, and
when I saw it, I was kind of shocked.
I just was confused. I dont know. He
played for two different coaches, and
he went to school at a different time
than me, so I dont know his experi-
ences there. A lot of those guys before
me were AFAM majors.
In my time, we had a guy, Wayne
Walter. He was on us like a hawk. He
had us working day in and day out
in study hall. So my experience there
was a lot different. Even if that was
his experience, I just didnt see the
perspective or, I guess, the direction
he was going. What was the purpose
of trying and, you know, speaking out
or saying something? Like, what was
he trying to accomplish?
I dont get it, bashing a university
that you grew up loving and you
grew up in. People have taken care
of you since youve been there and
since youve been a kid. I just didnt
see the point of it. I didnt see the
direction of it or what youre trying
to accomplish in doing it, so Im very
shocked and confused.
DTH: Whats next for you?
DG: Well, this summer Im going to
take a couple vacations, relax a little
bit, maybe have some of my camps
in New York. Travel a little bit, have
some camps, then, you know, back to
business, working out again. This is
a big summer for me coming up. Ive
got one more year left on my contract.
I hope I can continue to stay healthy
and play well, because I want to con-
tinue to succeed and be a Spur. Im
going to do all of the proper habits,
proper things I need to do to get my
body right for another great season
and also try to persuade some guys to
come back.

If you like music and video
games, you dont want to miss
a night of three of the best
8-bit bands in the Southeast.
Atlantas Bit Brigade, con-
sisting of mathrock bands
Cinemechanica and We
Versus The Shark, has gar-
nered nationwide attention
from fans of the genre.
In April, the band got to
play in one of the biggest
gaming festivals in the coun-
try, Bostons PAX East.
Raleighs own Eight Bit
Disaster and Wilmingtons
D&D Sluggers will also be
dropping Nintendo beats live
onstage.
This is the perfect show for
music and video game nerds
to join together for one fun
night of 8-bit madness.
Formed by emo and
hardcore veterans, Anthony
Green of Soasin and Colin
Frangicetto of This Day
Forward, Circa Survive has
rightly established itself in
the music scene.
Austins powerhouse rock-
ers UME will be opening the
show. With a new album,
Monuments, this opening
act is worth the listen.
Circa Survive has been
consistently touring and put-
ting out new material year
after year, which results in a
live set that is sure to impress
new and old fans.
With a rumored new
album coming out in the
fall, this show is a perfect
teaser to whats to come for
this band.
The Carrboro ArtsCenter
is hosting Summertime
and the Reading is Easy, an
interactive book fair for all
ages to help you kick-start
your summer reading list.
Blues and gospel singer
Jennifer Evans will set the
mood by singing her rendi-
tion of Summertime.
Local authors will then
read excerpts from their
books as actors bring them
to life.
There will also be poetry
performed by the award-win-
ning spoken word organiza-
tion, Sacrificial Poets.
The event is free and 10%
of book sales will benefit
programs at the ArtsCenter
as a part of its NEXT 40
Campaign.
As a part of the North
Carolina Museum of Arts
18th annual summer concert
series, indie folk rocker Sam
Beam, also known as Iron
and Wine, will be playing in
the area.
This isnt Beams first time
in the area. Iron and Wine
played a sold out show hosted
by CUAB at Memorial Hall in
2008 and yet again in 2013
when Beam played an all
acoustic set.
Now, Iron and Wine will
be making a stop in Raleigh
in support of his latest album,
Ghost on Ghost.
If you missed last years
show, heres your chance to see
this notable indie act perform
with an up-and-coming folk
singer, Angel Olsen.
TEACHER TENURE
FROM PAGE 1
before youre arbitrarily dis-
missed, Thomas said.
Although the N.C. Senates
proposed pay raise could bring
up the states low national
ranking in teacher pay, some
question why eliminating ten-
ure is included in the deal.
Why are those two things
tied together? said Jeffrey
Nash, a spokesman for
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools. Either you do or
dont have the money to pay
the teacher the raise.
But state Sen. Jerry
Tillman, R-Randolph, co-
chairman of the N.C. Senate
Education Committee, said in
a press release the state Senate
is pleased to offer teachers a
choice between higher pay and
teacher tenure.
We appreciate the feedback
weve heard from our teachers
on the need for a pay increase
and the desire for a choice on
tenure, Tillman said.
The teacher pay raises in
state budgets proposed by
Gov. Pat McCrory and the N.C.
House do not affect career
status rights. However, their
budgets proposed average pay
increases of 2 to 4.3 percent
and 5 percent, respectively.
Nash said tenure would not
save or cost the state money.
Its not a financial issue,
its an ethical issue, he said.
Lagging salaries
N.C. K-12 teachers salaries
have been frozen for five of
the past six years. Thomas
said two of his colleagues left
at the end of this school year.
Even with proposed pay
raises, they would still be
making more in the places
they went to, Thomas said.
And Nash said it is hard
for schools in North Carolina
to recruit and retain teachers
because of the states low pay.
Its very hard to be
at a teacher fair next to
some school district from
Maryland, Virginia or South
Carolina and try to recruit
when the person next to us is
offering $10,000 or $15,000
more, Nash said.
A national conversation
Earlier this month, a
California judge ruled the
states union-backed teacher
tenure and layoff and dis-
missal laws infringe on stu-
dents rights to equal educa-
tion opportunities.
Nash said regardless of
what a states teacher tenure
means, teachers should not
have to fear for their jobs.
Connecting to California,
I see an erosion of teacher
authority in the classroom,
he said. If were afraid for our
jobs, it makes it very difficult
to manage our students and
create an equitable climate in
the classroom.
UNC law professor Jeffrey
Hirsch said job security plays
an important role for those
considering job offers.
Basically, getting rid of
tenure or whatever job secu-
rity you have is essentially
lowering the salary as well
and the overall value of the
package, he said.
Thomas said teacher ten-
ure laws have been criticized
for keeping bad teachers in
the classroom, but he thinks
North Carolina has effective
systems for administrators to
address low quality teaching.
We invest in teachers and
train them, and other states
benefit for that, he said.
Surrounding states are ben-
efiting from our pay disparity
as experienced and qualified
teachers leave the state for
better pay.

toward current expenses of the
two school systems. Of this,
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools will receive more than
$44 million, while Orange
County Schools will be given
more than $28 million.
The rest of the money
will be divided among fields
including school-related debt
service, recurring capital and
school nurses and resource
officers.
McKee said he thought the
tax was an important way to
adjust to state policies, but
was concerned about people
with moderate incomes. He
said he originally asked for a
1.5 cent increase then tried to
compromise with 1.75 cents.
While he acknowledged the
need for a tax increase, he said
it can often get out of hand.
I have concerns of the sus-
tainability of continuing tax
increases, McKee said.
One of his main concerns
was the town of Chapel Hill
often increases taxes at the
same time as the county.
Chapel Hill increased its sales
tax by one cent this year.

Jodi Pharr said he had
talked about going to the
West Coast with ambitions to

Boeing. She said he planned
to continue his education

An undergraduate degree

At a candlelight vigil
held at the Old Well by the

said while everyone gathered
to mourn and support the
Pharr family, he wanted to
also celebrate his life.
Harris always found time to

But through all the noise
surrounding his development,

He has been going to sleep

when his dream of playing in
the NBA could be realized.
And with the sound of his

that sigh of relief.
After my freshman year

good enough to play in the
NBA. Then these last two

I got two more years of my
education, and Im that much
closer to getting my degree.
Im married and have no

Church challenges
gay marriage ban
By Lucinda Shen
Senior Writer
The United Church of Christ
has joined the line of lawsuits
against the states ban on gay
marriage and it is making an
unconventional challenge.
The UCC filed a lawsuit
against North Carolina in April
arguing the states gay mar-
riage ban limits the religious
freedom of clergy who wish to
perform gay marriages.
Although the UCCs law-
suit is the first to challenge
Amendment One on the basis
of religious freedom, the Rev.
Geoffrey A. Black, general min-
ister and president of the UCC,
said the case is a mere glimpse
into the spectrum of beliefs in
the religious community.
Were not alone in this
there are other religious bod-
ies that certainly share our
values and affirm our effort
to bring this matter to the
courts, he said.
According to N.C. marriage
laws, a member of the state
clergy is not legally permitted
to officiate a marriage, legally
or spiritually, if a couple does
not have a valid marriage
license, said Maxine Eichner,
a UNC law professor special-
izing in LGBTQ issues.
After the 2012 passage of
N.C. Amendment One, which
legislatures put on the state
ballot, same-sex couples could
not obtain a marriage license
in North Carolina.
Ministers who conduct
marriage ceremonies for
same-sex couples, a class one
misdemeanor, could face up
to 120 days in jail or proba-
tion and community service if
found guilty.
The N.C. American Civil
Liberties Union also filed
previous lawsuits to challenge
the states gay marriage ban,
first in 2012 and again in
April of this year.
The ACLUs April lawsuit
challenges the states lack of
benefits for same-sex couples
and their adopted children.
Their first lawsuit, in which
same-sex partners who could
not register as the joint legal
guardians of their adopted
children sued the government,
is still awaiting court action.
The court is likely seek-
ing direction from the
U.S. Fourth Circuit Court
of Appeals, which is cur-
rently deliberating in Bostic v.
Schaefer the constitutionality
of the same-sex marriage ban
in Virginia, Eichner said.
But some conserva-
tive groups are adamant
Amendment One will stay.
Tami Fitzgerald, executive
director of the N.C. Values
Coalition, a right-leaning
advocacy group, said the
UCCs goal in the case is com-
parable to imposing their reli-
gious views on the state.
The state is not restricting
marriage, it is defining it as
between a man and a woman,
she said. The state has always
regulated marriage.
When Amendment One was
passed two years ago, 61 per-
cent of North Carolinians voted
against same-sex marriage.
Same-sex marriage advoca-
cy groups should respect pub-
lic opinion, Fitzgerald said.
But the tides of public opin-
ion are evolving however
gradually.
A September 2013 Elon
University poll found that 47
percent of registered N.C. vot-
ers oppose gay marriage and
unions, with 43 percent in sup-
port. In comparison, 39 per-
cent of North Carolinians voted
against Amendment One.
Nationally, a July 2011
Gallup poll reported that 52
percent of Americans sup-
ported same-sex marriage
and 43 percent opposed.
Public opinion (in N.C.) has
shifted more slowly than on the
national level, Eichner said.
Federal support is not the
only place where opposi-
tion to same-sex marriage
has begun to soften. The
N.C. GOP released their
2014 political platform in
early June, with the marked
absence of explicit resolutions
Title IX covers transgender students
By Carolyn Ebeling
Senior Writer
The conversation sur-
rounding Title IX has been
constantly evolving on college
campuses around the country,
with the latest change for-
mally including transgender
people.
On April 29, the U.S.
Department of Education
clarified the previously unan-
swered question of whether
transgender students were
protected under Title IX,
which prohibits discrimina-
tion against students based
on gender.
The department confirmed
transgender students are pro-
tected under this legislation.
Howie Kallem, UNCs
Title IX compliance coor-
dinator and member of the
Universitys Sexual Assault
Task Force, said UNCs poli-
cies already protected trans-
gender students.
In an email, Kallem said the
current policy prohibits dis-
crimination and harassment
on the basis of many factors,
including gender identity or
expression and that covers
transgender students.
The White House Task
Force to Protect Students
from Sexual Assault clari-
fied that Title IX protects all
students, regardless of sexual
orientation or gender identity,
Kallem said.
Hilary Delbridge, a
spokeswoman from UNCs
Equal Opportunity Office
and a member of UNCs
Sexual Assault Task Force,
said the task force feels
positively about the change
in the wording of the legisla-
tion, particularly in relation
to sexual assault and sexual
violence.
The task force is in full
support of it. Were not aware
of any pushback against the
inclusion of students who iden-
tify as transgender, she said.
Terri Phoenix, director of
UNCs LGBTQ Center, said
the University has banned
discrimination on the basis of
gender since 2011, when the
Dear Colleague letter was
written, which provided guid-
ance and examples of Title IX
policies.
At UNC, we have been
talking about that since
the Dear Colleague letter,
and our policy will include
gender-based harassment,
Phoenix said.
Mara Keisling, execu-
tive director of the National
Center for Transgender
Equality, said in an interview
with NPR she thinks the
change in legislation will be
important to sexual assault
and sexual violence.
(Transgender people) have
to be protected, too, nobody
opposes that, she said.
I mean, I cannot believe
there are any reasonable peo-
ple in the United States who
believe that transgender peo-
ple shouldnt be protected.
against same-sex adoption
or support of federal bans on
same-sex marriage.
With growing support,
most same-sex marriage
advocacy groups are confi-
dent that same-sex marriage
and benefits are an eventual-
ity its not a question of if,
but a matter of when.
Mike Meno, spokesman for
the N.C. ACLU, said the plain-
tiffs in the ACLUs lawsuits
have urgent health concerns,
which he hopes will spark
court action.
One couple has a child with
cerebral palsy and lacks health-
care coverage to help sustain
medical costs, he said.
We know were going to get
there, but a lot of these cou-
ples, they cant wait, he said.

Governments approve new budgets
By Joey DeVito
Staff Writer
In preparation for the
beginning of the next fis-
cal year, the Orange County
Board of Commissioners, the
Chapel Hill Town Council
and the Carrboro Board of
Aldermen have been working
on their 2014-15 budgets.
County Commissioners
The Orange County Board
of Commissioners didnt want
to raise taxes, but they did so
when they approved their bud-
get for the 2014-15 fiscal year.
We raised taxes for the
first time in six years because
we have to continue to make
up for cuts from the state,
chairman Barry Jacobs said.
The board has dealt with
these cuts for the past few
years and has tried to avoid
raising taxes, he said.
Raising taxes was new,
making up for the cuts is not,
Jacobs said. If I could not
have a tax increase and have
sufficient funds to do what
we believe is necessary, then I
would do that.
The tax revenue will go to
childcare subsidies and educa-
tion, both of which have been
cut by the state, Jacobs said.
The budget also created a
new program to address pov-
erty in targeted neighborhoods.
Chapel Hill Town Council
The Chapel Hill Town
Council listened to its resi-
dents asking for funding for
affordable housing when it
approved its budget.
Councilman Ed Harrison
said the town allocated
$690,000 to help reach its
goal of putting more afford-
able housing in Chapel Hill.
He said they also raised
taxes, approving a 1-cent tax
increase.
That should go directly
into the debt management
tax, and so we ll build up
a body of money to pay off
our debts on large projects,
Harrison said.
Harrison said the money
will fund both current and
future projects, and he would
like to see the money go
toward bicycle improvements
to major roads.
The town also put
$400,000 toward buying
more buses, which Harrison
said is desperately needed,
because 43 of the 99 Chapel
Hill buses need to be replaced.
Some of them are older
than a lot of UNC under-
grads, he said.
Carrboro Aldermen
The Carrboro Board of
Aldermen approved a budget
with emphasis on affordable
housing and town employees.
The town is hiring a new
assistant to the town man-
ager, who will focus on the
affordable housing initiative
which the board has been
working on for the past year.
Were really excited to
have a staffer whos going to
be able to devote some time
and attention to that work,
Mayor Lydia Lavelle said.
Some aldermen have been
part of an affordable housing
task force, which has tried to
come up with solutions.
The budget also addresses
the wages of town employees.
They will now be able to get a
pay increases based on their
job performance, Lavelle said.
Thats something were
happy to implement, but we
havent been able to do that
for the past couple of years
because of the recession, she
said.
The town will also put
money toward maintenance.
Lavelle said one such project
will be repairing the tennis
courts at Wilson Park.
When you look at a towns
budget, you should be able
to see the priorities and the
goals of the town, and I think
you can really see those when
you look at our budget,
Lavelle said.
County delivers 18,000 new recycling carts
By Mary Taylor Renfro
Staff Writer
Orange County residents
may find it easier to recycle
with a new program being
implemented by the county.
The Orange County
Solid Waste Management
Department is replacing
some 18-gallon rectangular
recycling bins, which have
been used in the county for 25
years, with new blue 95-gal-
lon wheeled carts.
The department started
delivering more than 18,000
carts to households in
Chapel Hill, Carrboro and
Hillsborough on June 9.
Residents will begin using the
new containers for recycling
next week.
Orange County Solid Waste
Planner Blair Pollock said
the switch from bins to carts
cost the county more than $1
million. He said the county
received $203,000 in grants
from the state, and it plans
to finance the rest of the pay-
ment over time. This years
payment was drawn from
reserve funds, he said.
Pollock said the county
decided to make the change
for several reasons.
For most people its going
to be physically easier to roll
a cart to the curb than it is to
carry bins to the curb, he said.
Its also more efficient
because you have almost
three times the capacity so
you dont have to take it out
as frequently. And from the
collectors perspective, its also
safer and faster and therefore
cheaper to collect with the
automated system.
The carts also contain
radio-frequency identification
chips which monitor their
locations and track how often
they are placed at the curb.
The chips will enable the
department to automatically
determine the recycling par-
ticipation rates for communi-
ties in the county some-
thing Pollock said the county
has been doing manually for
more than a decade.
Pollock said several mate-
rials which were previously
accepted only at solid waste
convenience centers can now
be accepted through the curb-
side recycling program because
of the carts increased volume.
Pollock said already,
Chapel Hill has a 90 percent
participation rate and hes
not sure if there will be a sig-
nificant increase with the use
of the new carts.
But Rob Taylor, senior
environmental specialist with
the Division of Environmental
Assistance and Customer
Service, said although Orange
County already has a high bin-
based participation rate, he
believes the carts will create a
significant increase in partici-
pation based on results from
The wheeled carts
can hold five times as
much as the old bins.
The closest parallel to what might happen
in Chapel Hill is what happened in Asheville.
Rob Taylor,
Senior environmental specialist
another cart-based program in
North Carolina.
The closest parallel
to what might happen in
Chapel Hill is what happened
in Asheville, Taylor said.
Asheville also had a very high
participating recycling pro-
gram that was bin-based, and
their performance with bins
was similar to what Chapel
Hill does today, and after they
switched to carts they got a
giant jump in participation.
Jan Sassaman, chair-
man of the Orange County
Commission for the
Environment, said he expects
the carts to positively influ-
ence both the community and
the environment.
It helps us do what we
know is right to do, he said.
Chapel Hill and Orange
County have very good envi-
ronmental ethics. For me, at
least, it makes it a little bit
easier to do what I know I
ought to be doing.

Come with me, and you ll
be in a world of pure imagi-
nation.
This Willy Wonka quote
comes to life in the first ever
Imaginings project, which will
take place in 16 different loca-
tions across the United States.
The ArtsCenter in
Carrboro will host the south-
eastern Imagining.
What the Imagining is, is
its some kind of community
gathering where together we
envision 2034 and how our
neighborhoods and towns look
like now that arts and cul-
ture are infused in civic life and
imagining that this has already
happened, said Lynden Harris,
a cultural agent and founder of
Hidden Voices.
A product of the two-year-
old U.S. Department of Arts
and Culture, the Imaginings
are meant to be a way to revi-
talize the nation, starting at
the community level.
We see this round of
Imaginings as a pilot and
will continue to find ways
in the coming months to
gather ideas, images and
stories that will inform the
agenda and policy platform
of the USDAC, said Adam
Horowitz, otherwise known as
the USDAC Deputy Secretary
Norman Beckett, in an email.
The locations of the
Imagining series depended
on the location of the cul-
tural agents. After more than
a hundred applications were
received, 17 cultural agents
were selected from across the
country, Harris being one of
them.
Were really happy to host
the Imagining because it fits
with what we do with using
arts and creativity to make
community stronger, said
ArtsCenter executive director
Art Menius.
While a national project,
Harris said each Imagining
project spread out across
the span of two weeks has
a different theme. Kansas will
channel the Wizard of Oz,
while D.C. is going retro with
a soul train theme.
Were kind of in this whole
farm to food movement. We
decided to envision ours as sort
of a county fair vibe, she said.
To capture this feeling,
participants will be handed
magic wand pinwheels upon
entrance, which they can use to
transport themselves to 2034.
From there, participants
will be asked to go to one of
10 stations of different top-
ics including foodways,
health, housing and more
and imagine what their lives
would be like if the arts were
more utilized in these ways.
Once people start talking,
all sorts of ideas and visions
will crop up, said Harris. The
spirit of the conversation is yes,
and, and we arent debating,
we arent trying to convince
each other. Its Well be build-
ing on each others visions, and
I think thats really important.
This event isnt just a meet-
ing, but a community celebra-
tion of the arts with perfor-
mances by local musicians and
poets, elixir snow cones by
renowned local chef and social
activist Chef Njathi Kabui,
funnel cakes and more.
Puppeteer and poet Tarish
Pipkins will emcee the event.
What I hope happens is
everyone has fun and they
actually start thinking more
about the future through art,
Pipkins said. Just imagine
the future.

arts future in year 2034

Staff Writer
The town of Carrboro
will soon need a new person
to help plan bike paths and
roadways.
Jeff Brubaker, Carrboros
transportation planner,
is moving to California to
be closer to his girlfriend.
Brubaker accepted an offer
to work as a transporta-
tion planner with the San
Luis Obispo Council of
Governments in California.
I will miss Carrboro a lot,
he said. There are wonderful
people, and I have some won-
derful friends here.
Brubaker said the main rea-
son he is moving is because of
his long-distance relationship
with his girlfriend.
Things were great thats
what made it a tough decision,
he said. Im looking forward to
the adventure this allows me to
embark on with my girlfriend.
Damon Seils, a member
of the Carrboro Board of
Aldermen, said Brubaker has
been working with the town
for most of the time he has
been involved as well.
I think maybe the best
thing about Jeff is that
he really gets the town of
Carrboro, Seils said.
Seils also said the board
had a surprise for Brubaker at
Tuesdays aldermen meeting
because it was the last one he
would attend. Seils said every-
one on the board responded
to the news with surprise, but
the town manager and plan-
ning director are starting their
search for a replacement.
Jeff will be leaving some-
time in July, and I know that
the planning director has
asked to move ahead, he said.
Brubaker said there are
many projects Carrboro
should continue, which
include getting car sharing,
expanding local transit ser-
vice, establishing a town tran-
sit system in Carrboro and
building a sidewalk on South
Greensboro Street.
I think there are many proj-
ects that are important, but
that is just a sampling of the
ones important to me, he said.
Carrboro Mayor Lydia
Lavelle said Brubaker has been
a fabulous employee since he
started in September 2009.
He has worked on so
many initiatives, she said.
He also had to be liaison to
several groups like the trans-
portation advisory board and
our local (metropolitan plan-
ning organization).
Lavelle said Brubaker
Jeff
Brubaker
is a Carrboro
transportation
planner. He
is moving to
California after
almost 5 years.
Jeff Brubaker
has worked for
Carrboro since 2009.
has had a hand in just about
every transportation project
in Carrboro, like working on
construction plans for green-
ways and bicycle implementa-
tions. She said the search for
a new transportation planner
will be up to the town manag-
er and the planning director,
but she will miss Brubakers
sociability the most.
As mayor, I really like the
fact that Jeff was so knowl-
edgeable about our plans, and
he could explain them in a
way that made them under-
standable to the average per-
son, which I think is a great
skill to have, she said.
Brubaker said anytime
someone makes a big transi-
tion, there will be tons of
emotions to follow.
Carrboro gave me an abun-
dance of opportunities to work
in various transportation proj-
ects, and Im very grateful to
have had the position over the
last five years, he said.

Texas to get more
border detention centers
SAN ANTONIO (MCT)
Obama administration
officials announced new mea-
sures Friday to detain and
process an influx of families
streaming over the southern
U.S. border in recent months,
primarily from Central
America.
Officials plan to open new
temporary immigration
detention centers to house
the families, and will send
more immigration judges
and government lawyers to
the epicenter of the crisis
in the Rio Grande Valley of
Texas to speed processing of
immigrants cases, officials
said during a Friday brief-
ing.
We are surging our
resources to increase
our capacity to detain,
said Deputy Secretary of
Homeland Security Alejandro
Mayorkas.
Mayorkas emphasized
that the new facilities would
be equipped to detain
families humanely, and that
officials will also use alter-
natives to detention, such
as ankle monitors for those
released pending immigra-
tion court proceedings. He
said 39,000 adults had been
caught crossing the south-
western border with chil-
dren from Oct. 1, 2013, the
start of the federal govern-
ments fiscal year, through
the end of May. Another
52,000 unaccompanied chil-
dren had been caught as of
June 15, he said.
US Supreme Court
rules on EPA powers
WASHINGTON, D.C.
(MCT) A fractured
Supreme Court on Monday
limited, but didnt eliminate,
the Environmental Protection
Agencys power to regulate
certain greenhouse gas emis-
sions.
In a 5-4 decision that was
both complex and restrained,
the court declared that the
EPA cant require station-
ary polluters to get permits
solely because they might
emit greenhouse gases. This
would cover too many small
greenhouse gas sources such
as schools and churches, the
majority reasoned.
We think it beyond rea-
sonable debate that requir-
ing permits for sources
based solely on their emis-
sions of greenhouse gases ...
would be incompatible with
the substance of Congress
regulatory scheme, Justice
Antonin Scalia wrote for the
majority.
At the same time, the court
agreed that for large polluters
that already are regulated for
non-greenhouse gas emis-
sions, the EPA can require the
use of so-called best available
control technology.
Scalia stressed that the
ruling Monday would leave
unregulated only a small
percentage of additional
greenhouse-gas polluters. By
some estimates, the EPA will
still be able to regulate 83
percent of stationary source
greenhouse-gas emissions.
Had the agency won, it would
have been able to regulate 86
percent of the emissions.
For-profit college
company stays afloat
LOS ANGELES (MCT)
A troubled for-profit col-
lege corporation has reached
a temporary agreement
with the U.S. Department
of Education that will allow
access to $16 million in fed-
eral student aid, enough to
keep the company afloat.
The agreement will allow
more than 72,000 students
at Corinthian Colleges Inc.
campuses to continue studies,
but the company is also for-
mulating a plan to sell or shut
down many of its remaining
campuses.
Santa Ana, Calif.-based
Corinthian Colleges Inc.
signaled last week that it
was in danger of shutting
down, after the Education
Department imposed a
21-day waiting period on the
companys access to crucial
federal aid funds. The depart-
ment has been investigating
allegations of falsified job
placement rates and other
improprieties at Corinthian,
and the company is also the
subject of lawsuits and inves-
tigations brought by more
than a dozen state attorneys
general.
Corinthian said it would
finalize the sales plan with
the Department of Education
by July 1.

Opinion Thursday, June 26, 2014 The Daily Tar Heel 8
P
eople in politics
often appeal to
whatever principle
suits their policy desires at
a given time.
This is understand-
able to a certain extent.
Politics are complicated,
and people from all kinds
of ideological backgrounds
hold principles which,
when taken to their logical
extremes, may contradict
other principles they hold.
But at other times, the
contradictions of politi-
cians are so incompat-
ible that they cannot be
excused by the complexity
of issues. At those times, it
is important to call atten-
tion to the hypocrisy of
politicians positions.
Such is the case regard-
ing the issue of North
Carolinas Amendment

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT
Need to invest in
higher education
TO THE EDITOR:
Article IX, Section 9,
of the North Carolina
Constitution reads, The
General Assembly shall
provide that the benefits
of The University of North
Carolina and other public
institutions of higher edu-
cation, as far as practicable,
be extended to the people
of the State free of expense.
The General Assemblys
commitment to this man-
date is the reason North
Carolina has always been a
national leader in providing
affordable higher education
to its citizens.
The states two flagship
universities, the University
of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill and N.C. State,
rank number one and
four, respectively, on The
Princeton Reviews list of
2014 Best Value Colleges
for public colleges. These
research universities pro-
vide low-cost, high-value
education while stimulating
North Carolinas economy.
NCSU, for example, gen-
erates $1.7 billion in direct
economic impact each
year, and returns $8 into
the economy for every $1
received in state funding.
As an NCSU student and
the son of a former UNC-
system professor, I recog-
nize the positive impact
the system has on North
Carolina.
Western Carolina
University, for example,
is home to over 10,000
students and is the larg-
est employer in Jackson
County. From Cullowhee to
Elizabeth City, communi-
ties across North Carolina
benefit from the contribu-
tions made to our state by
the UNC system.
North Carolinas invest-
ment in higher education is
a commitment to the long-
term success of its citizens

Sexual
health
needs
funding
C
ome next year, UNCs
sexual health counsel-
ing may no longer be
funded.
Steven Long, a member
of the UNC-system Board of
Governors, told The Daily Tar
Heel in May that sexual health
was not a top priority.
Sexual health is not one
of the top wellness concerns
outside of preventing STDs,
he said in the article. Most of
the concerns, according to the
Centers for Disease Control,
are things such as stress, nutri-
tion, a proper diet those
types of things. The emphasis
was not on those higher prior-
ity wellness needs. To be gen-
erous, calling it sexual health,
it was more sex counseling, it
was not a wellness program.
Long said student funds
should not promote diversity or
social advocacy. In a memo, the
Board of Governors singled out
a Project Dinah event entitled
Orgasm? Yes, Please! which
has interactive sex education
skits and includes a raffle for
sex toys.
Longs comments show he
is fundamentally out of touch
with the issues our students
deal with on a daily basis.
Sexual health counseling is
absolutely necessary for college
students as much as, if not
more so, than exercise, stress
prevention and a healthy diet.
My high school health text-
book had almost no practical
sex ed information. It had an
abstinence contract, pages and
pages on why we should wait
and one little box on the failure
rates of birth control. At the
end of my senior year, I realized
few of my friends knew the cor-
rect way to put on a condom.
North Carolinas health
education policies make it
impossible for us to learn about
sex in an honest, healthy way
in high school. For many, col-
lege is the first time they get
real sex education. What the
BOG doesnt understand is that
when students have so-called
sex counseling, theyre learn-
ing compassion, trust and com-
munication. They learn how
to advocate for themselves and
listen to their partners. These
are not frivolous skills.
If the board wants to end
sexual violence at UNC, they
need to understand we cant
end sexual violence without
also teaching students about
healthy relationships. We
cant end sexual violence
without also having conversa-
tions about what good sexual
relationships look like, what
healthy ones look like. Often
survivors dont realize what
happened to them was assault
because they were never
taught about love.
Many of us grew up with
Twilight as our model of love,
learning that obsession and
possession are synonymous
with love. Seventeen magazine
teaches girls that love is all
about tricks, deception, ways
to hide parts of your body and
personality to lure someone in.
Its no wonder we need sex edu-
cation, lessons on how to love.
Long and the BOG need to end
attacks on sex education.
EDITORIAL
people who at other times
have defended religious
liberty, especially in the
context of the Affordable
Care Act.
There is a clear irony
when politicians at one
point complain about the
supposed violations of
religious liberty that occur
because of the national
health care law and then
turn around and impose
restrictions on religious
institutions that wish to
perform gay marriages.
State law, as currently
constituted, makes it a
misdemeanor crime for
ministers to perform a
marriage ceremony for
a couple without a wed-
ding license, meaning that
churches are even barred
from performing unoffi-
cial marriages.
The United Church of
Christ is now rightly call-
ing North Carolina on its
hypocrisy, suing, in part-
nership with individual
ministers of other reli-
gions for the right to per-
form gay marriages. The
plaintiffs are absolutely
right to do this.
Gay marriages should be
legally indistinguishable
from straight marriages,
and the religious legiti-
macy of marriages should
be left up to churches, not
mandated by state law.
The personal religious
beliefs of politicians, or
even a majority of North
Carolinas voters, should
have no effect on the abil-
ity of churches to perform
gay marriages.
It is the right of a church
as a religious institution
to perform or not perform
marriages of any kind
between two consent-
ing adults. Amendment
One clearly violates the
principle of the separa-
tion of church and state,
which would be a sound
ideal even if it was not one
of the core beliefs of the
Founding Fathers.
This should not be
a complex issue. There
should be consensus
around the principles of
separation of church and
state and the protection of
religious liberty. A church
should have the right to
marry whomever it sees fit.
Churches should be
granted freedoms
with marriage.
On Tuesday, Gov. Pat
McCrory vetoed an unem-
ployment insurance bill
that sorely needed to be
vetoed, exercising that
power granted to him
by the North Carolina
Constitution for only the
third time.
But unfortunately for the
struggling unemployed of
North Carolina, McCrory
did not use his power out of
concern for the nightmar-
ish bureaucratic burdens
placed on the unemployed,
but because of a trivial
political squabble.
The bill is likely to pass
in one form or another
soon. McCrorys previous
two vetoes were both over-
ridden.
McCrory vetoed the bill
because it would limit his
control over the Board of
Review, a three-member
board that rules on appeals
of unemployment board
decisions. Currently,
McCrory has sole authority
over the appointment of the
boards members, who are
paid $120,000 per year.
The new bill, if passed
into law, would give one
appointment each to
the leaders of the North
Carolina House, the North
Carolina Senate and the
governor. It also would
shorten the terms of the
three current members of
the board.
All of this was apparent-
ly done in order to retaliate
to the governor for submit-
ting his appointments for
the board late. Ultimately,
all of these details prob-
ably dont matter much to
North Carolinas 300,000
unemployed.
But it may interest
them to know that the bill,
if passed, would require
unemployed people to
contact five potential
employers a week about
potential work in order to
be qualified as actively
seeking work, an increase
from the two contacts cur-
rently required for unem-
ployed individuals.
This policy change
could serve to artificially
lower official unemploy-
ment numbers by catego-
rizing people that fail to
meet this ridiculous quota
as not actively seeking
work, and could further
hurt those people by mak-
ing it more difficult to
qualify for unemployment
insurance.
McCrory referred to
these changes in unem-
ployment laws and others
as much needed, accord-
ing to the (Raleigh) News
& Observer.
This only adds to the
unnecessary burdens
placed on North Carolinas
unemployed by its own
government, which vol-
untarily withdrew its
unemployed from federal
benefits in June of 2013
and cut the benefits given
to those who newly file for
unemployment.
The trivial political
bickering happening in
North Carolina while the
unemployed suffer sug-
gests Raleigh needs to
shift its priorities.

Ensuring this com-
mitment requires North
Carolinians to continue to
prioritize affordable higher
education.
I encourage students,
alumni and citizens
throughout the state to
tell their elected officials,
discuss in their communi-
ties and remember during
elections the importance of
affordable higher education
in North Carolina. We boast
the best public higher edu-
cation system in the coun-
try because we take higher
education seriously.
Investing in higher edu-
cation in North Carolina
is an issue larger than
right versus left, UNC
versus NCSU or eastern
versus western barbe-
cue. It requires all North
Carolinians to look beyond
what makes us different
and work together to pro-
tect the great asset that
brings us all together:
affordable, high quality,
public education.

University parking
fee inequity is unfair
TO THE EDITOR:
The front page of the
June 22 Chapel Hill News
featured an article about
the University instituting
parking fees for parking
during nighttime hours.
This is hard to believe.
According to the article,
employees who earn up to
$25,000 will have to pay a
nighttime parking fee of up
to $229 which is just about
1 percent of this salary.
Those who make $100,000
and over will have to pay up
to $390 which is less than
1/2 of 1 percent of their
salaries.
This is grossly unfair!
The percentages should be
the other way around. How
can the University plan and
be responsible for such a
gross inequity!
Shame, shame, shame!

A Florida woman escaped
from handcufs this week to
scarf down the
bag of weed a
police ofcer had
just confscated.
You know, after
she crashed her car twice
from going the wrong way
down the highway. We really
wish we could say this was
weird for Florida. Something
tells us she is probably still
having the last laugh.

This week, David Blumen-
thal, a spokesman for The
Weather Channel,
explained that
most American
weather stations
do not display
any weather outside of
the U.S. border for purely
aesthetic reasons. Hold up,
Americas hat has weather?
We simply thought cold
would sufce. Poor Canada,
cant get no respect, eh?

Matthew Coomes, 25, drunk-

smear feces all

called the police. The only
logical response? The police
gave him a free ride home
with minimal charges. Really?
He couldve just called a taxi.
