But no one seemed to know how. Or why.
Some players said it was a question of heart.

Others said that wasnt the case.

defends
LGBT
comments
The N.C. representative said
private businesses should be
able to fire LGBT employees.
By Anica Midthun
Staff Writer
U.S. Rep. Robert Pittenger, R-N.C., is
running unopposed this fall for a second
term in Congress in the states ninth dis-
trict, including Mooresville and western
and northern parts of the Charlotte area.
But his remarks concerning lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender rights in the
workplace have sparked negative head-
lines and been called
offensive by some
advocacy groups.
At a Charlotte
town hall earlier this
month, Pittenger
compared the firing
of LGBT workers by
private businesses to
the right to smoke on
private property.
You need to
respect the autonomy
of somebody run-
ning their business,
he said, according to
the left-leaning blog
ThinkProgress.
But Jamie Bowers, Pittengers spokes-
man, said Pittenger was only asked about
the federal Employee Non-Discrimination
Act, not about firing gays.
The proposed act, known as ENDA, is
an effort to preserve job security for the
LGBT community and was introduced
most recently to Congress in April 2013.
The Firing gays: a freedom we enjoy
line that has been repeated in a few sen-
sationalized headlines is the creation of
the media, not anything Congressman
Pittenger ever said, Bowers said.
Pittenger has defended his comments,
saying in a statement that Americans are
already protected in the workplace.
We should fully enforce current laws
against discrimination, Pittenger said.
Where does it stop? Will the next law
mandate full employment? Where does

North Carolina suffered a historic loss to ECU Saturday
By Carlos Collazo
Assistant Sports Editor
GREENVILLE - In the 2013 season, when
East Carolina dismantled the North Carolina
football team 55-31, everyone knew what had
gone wrong. The team underestimated the
Pirates. They didnt take them as seriously as
they should have.
UNC promised that wouldnt be the case
in a chance at redemption at Dowdy-Ficklen
Stadium a year later.
But after standing outside the visitors locker
room Saturday, just moments after a record-
breaking 70-41 loss to the Pirates, the collective

Faculty Council talks
athlete graduation rates
By Ashlen Renner
Staff Writer
During the first Faculty Council
meeting of the academic year Friday,
the Faculty Athletics Committee pre-
sented its annual report and opened up
discussion about the student-athlete
graduation rate and the record number
of UNC student-athletes on the ACC
Academic Honor Roll.
A record 347 UNC student-athletes
were on the 2013-14 ACC Academic
Honor Roll, up from the previous high
of 329 in 2012-13.
According to the Federal
Graduation Rate calculated by the
NCAA, 72 percent of UNC student-
athletes graduated in the 2012-13
school year. Comparatively, the stu-
dent body graduation rate was 88
percent.
You can see theres a gap there, said
Lissa Broome, faculty athletics represen-
tative to the ACC and NCAA. Its not dis-
similar to the gaps at other universities.
UVA has the exact same gap. But this is
obviously a gap that we are looking at.
Though the Wainstein and NCAA
investigations are still underway, the
Faculty Athletics Committee is work-
ing with student-athletes, coaches
and faculty to ensure student-athletes
are included in every aspect of the
University community.
I think it presents opportunities for
us, Broome said. We can acknowl-
edge the mistakes weve made and
we can improve. And weve already
improved the processes related to
the academic experiences of student-
athletes.
The committee plans to improve
those processes by continuing to moni-
tor existing academic systems and poli-
cies and forming a fair culture, chair-
woman Joy Renner said.
This year, the committee also plans
to increase faculty-student communica-
tion by expanding the Student-Athlete
Advisory Council.
Faculty student-athlete communica-
tion we have a lot of that to do on this
campus, Renner said.
The council also heard a presenta-
tion on faculty retention and STEM
learning progression at UNC.
Ron Strauss, executive associate
provost and chief international officer,
presented an analysis of faculty reten-
tion and recruitment data during the
2013-14 academic year. During the year,
20 faculty members left UNC due to
external offers, a decrease compared to
the 48 faculty members who left in the
2012-13 year.
In the 2013-14 year, UNC faculty
received offers from Duke University,
Pittsburgh University and the
University of Washington, among
others. Counteroffers made by the
University were often successful in
retaining faculty members with exter-
nal offers, Strauss said.
But in the 2013-14 year, eight of the
faculty who left UNC did so despite
receiving a counteroffer.
Were in an academic market,
Strauss said. Theres a big, active pro-
cess here.
According to Strauss report, 177
new faculty members were hired in the
2013-14 year from universities such as
Duke, Ohio State and Harvard.

Clarks legacy lies with

Federico Luisetti (left), former Chancellor James Moeser (middle) and
Alisa Eanes (right) remember Fred Clark during his memorial service.
By Kelly Jasiura
Staff Writer
Fred Clark didnt want his
memorial to be a somber occasion.
He requested that it be happy,
joyous and filled with music
and that is what he got.
The service did him justice
it was definitely (Freds style),
said Shirley Ort, associate pro-
vost and director for the Office
of Scholarships and Student Aid,
and a longtime friend of Clark.
Around 250 friends and col-
leagues of Fred Clark, includ-
ing many students, gathered in
Memorial Hall Saturday to cel-
ebrate a man they all believed was
devoted to serving others.
Clark, a former Portuguese
professor and academic coordi-
nator for the Carolina Covenant
Scholars Program, died Sept. 5
after over 45 years of working for
the University.
The service included opening
and closing remarks by former
Chancellor Emeritus James
Moeser and reflections on Clarks
work by three former Carolina
Covenant scholars as well as
Federico Luisetti, department
chairman of romance languages
and literatures.
All three students said they
would not be where they are
today without Freds help.
Josh Wilkes, a Carolina
Covenant scholar and a 2007
graduate, said Clarks belief in him
enabled him to achieve so much.
He had a love for other people
and lived a very altruistic life,
Wilkes said.
Ort said Clark was most proud
of his engagement with students
through the Carolina Covenant.
Hes given us a living example
of the power of helping students
in everyday ways, she said.
Ort also said she was very
happy at the number of people
who attended the service.
I know he would have been
greatly humbled by all the folks
that were there, she said.
Danni Hayes, a sophomore
Carolina Covenant scholar, said
even though she did not know
Clark personally, the Carolina
Covenant was one of the reasons
she could come to college, so she
made a point of making time to
attend the service.
He embodied the Carolina
Way, she said.
Djin Enuol, also a sophomore
Carolina Covenant scholar, said
Clarks love for his students was
transparent, echoing Hayes
sentiment.
If it wasnt for him, I wouldnt
be here at all, she said.
Nina Furry, a senior lecturer
in the Department of Romance
Languages and Literatures, said

Panelists
debate
proposed
EPA plan
By Benji Schwartz
Staff Writer
The Environmental Protection Agency is
spearheading an effort to curb the nations carbon
pollution and the proposal has sparked plenty
of debate, including among panelists at UNCs
School of Law on Friday.
The Clean Power Plan would reduce carbon out-
put from power plants by setting a new standard for
states emission levels. But it would leave up to the
states the details of how to lessen cumulative output.
Federal and state environmental leaders, law
experts, advocacy groups and a Duke Energy execu-
tive were part of the forum hosted by UNCs Center
for Law, Environment, Adaptation and Resources
and the UNC Institute for the Environment.
North Carolina is going to be a centerpiece (for
the plan), said Steve Wall, project director for the
Institutes Environmental Resource Program and
one of the forums organizers. Its a very timely issue,
and it serves to bring people together to discuss it.
Wall said some North Carolina officials are con-
cerned about the plan because the state might not
get credit for already reducing pollution.
The EPA will collect public feedback on the
Clean Power Plan until Dec. 1.
After Marguerite McLamb, a policy adviser for
the EPA, gave a summary of the proposed carbon
regulations, a panel of legal and policy experts dis-
cussed the efficacy of the plan and possible litigation.
Jeremy Tarr, a policy associate for Duke
Universitys Nicholas Institute for Environmental
Policy Solutions, said legal challenges have already
surfaced in several states.
One issue for states is how to move forward with
a constructive process ... while at the same time
political voices may be against (the plan), Tarr said.
UNC law professor David Ardia said the media
might also negatively impact the implementation.
The second panel included state officials and
company leaders. Sheila Holman, director of the
division of air quality for the N.C. Department of
Energy and Natural Resources, said she is concerned
about the potential waste of resources in the state if
the regulations are affected by pending litigation.
Cari Boyce, vice president of environmental and
energy policy at Duke Energy, said the company
has invested $7.5 billion since 1999 to reduce
carbon output. But she cited similar concerns to
Holman, noting it was one of the most complex
plans the company had ever seen.
But Bob Keefe, executive director of
Environmental Entrepreneurs, said he supports
the efforts to curb carbon pollution.
Its the biggest environmental policy in our lives
and can be a gigantic economic policy, Keefe said.
After listening to the two panels, McLamb said
the discussions were educational and helpful.
(The panelists) engaged in good dialogue of
what the issues are, and thats what everyones
doing, including the EPA, she said.

Experts discussed the potential

Local activist groups raise environmental concerns
By Holly West
City Editor
On the eve of a United Nations summit
on climate change in New York City, about
200 people gathered in Chapel Hills Peace
and Justice Plaza Sunday afternoon to raise
awareness for environmental issues.
The demonstration drew a diverse
crowd grannies, rabbis, pastors, vegans
and students.
We must care for the creation that sus-
tains us, said Kathy Shea, senior adviser for
North Carolina Interfaith Power & Light,
a group that works with faith communities
across the state on environmental issues.
The crowd wielded signs about a mul-
titude of issues, including climate change,
carbon pollution, fracking and solar power.
The groups were inspired by the upcom-
ing United Nations Climate Summit 2014,
which will begin Tuesday in New York City.
Representatives from various govern-
ments from around the world will gather
to talk about developing goals for interna-
tional sustainable development and spend
the next year fine-tuning the goals.
A final draft will be presented at a UN
conference in late 2015, said Richard Edens,
pastor at United Church of Chapel Hill.
At Sundays Chapel Hill event, the Raging
Grannies, a group of female activists who
sing politicized song parodies at rallies, sung
about fracking, war and other issues.
No fracking, no way, they sang to the
tune of Home on the Range. We say keep
those frackers away.
The Grannies were one of several groups
that raised concerns about fracking.
Former state senator Ellie Kinnaird said
while she agrees that fracking is detrimen-
tal to the environment, there are more seri-
ous environmental threats looming, like
offshore drilling.
Representatives from Solarize Chapel
Hill advocated for the use of solar power,
which they said is an easy way to reduce
dependence on fossil fuels.
Kathy Kaufman, who spoke for Solarize
Chapel Hill at the event, said that solar ener-
gy has become cheaper since 2008.
You really can afford it, she said.
Other protestors, like freshman informa-
tion and library science major John Jacobi,
advocated for more general reforms.
Jacobi founded an organization called
UNC Freedom Club, which is still working
to get approved by the University.
We believe that there needs to be a radi-
cal change in social values, he said.
Jacobi said many of the environmental
issues the world is facing are a result of
human intervention in nature.
Choosing to industrialize is one of the
worst choices humans have ever made, he
said. Climate change is wild nature fight-
ing back.
The Rev. Robert Campbell, president
of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro NAACP
and the Rogers-Eubanks Neighborhood
Association, was one of many speakers at
the protest who said residents should hold
their elected officials accountable for legis-
lation that hurts the environment.
We dont need to continue to sell our
state to the large utility companies, he said.
Campbell said the Orange County land-
fill, which was located in the historically
black and low-income Rogers Road neigh-
borhood for 40 years, made the community
face environmental issues because they
were literally in peoples backyards.
It helped Orange County to understand
the three Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle.
Campbell said the public needs to
be further educated about being good
stewards of the environment and taking
responsibility for their consumption.

Bicyclists honor
hit-and-run victims
Carrboro to appoint
a town historian
By Derrick Bills
Staff Writer
The town of Carrboro is known for
its eccentricity and progressive mindset,
but many people in the area have no idea
how rich a history the community has.
To change that, the Carrboro Board
of Aldermen is creating the position of
Carrboro town historian. It is a volunteer
position with a term of at least four years.
The historian will advise the board
on areas that they believe are histori-
cal landmarks and need preservation
in Carrboro, said Alderman Bethany
Chaney. They will also tell us why its
important to engage with the history of
the area.
Chaney said although the formal
responsibilities of the position have not
been assigned, the job would not entail
interacting with the board as much as
getting involved in the community and
connecting with town residents.
Chaney said both amateur and pro-
fessional historians will be considered.
We are looking for someone who is
genuinely willing to put in some time
and come up with a reasonable plan to
do some community-oriented activities,
she said. We want someone who is will-
ing to interact with the public around
history and be creative about it.
Alderman Damon Seils said whoever
steps into the role will play an impor-
tant part in collecting and sharing the
history of Carrboro with residents.
We think that there is value in rec-
ognizing that Carrboro has many his-
tories, and we all have a part in telling
those histories, Seils said.
Alderman Randee Haven-ODonnell
said the position would help document
the stories, photos and memories that
detail how Carrboro has changed over
the years.
I think we all see not only the
importance of its history, but we also
recognize that Carrboro is so distinc-
tive and that it has always been,
Haven-ODonnell said. And it is really
important for the town to preserve its
distinction.
The application is available on the
town website, and some residents have
already shown interest.
Richard Ellington, a Carrboro native
and co-author of the book Carrboro
(Images of America), said he is not sure
whether he wants to apply, but he is
excited to see the creation of the position.
I hope that whoever is the historian
focuses on the community, Ellington
said. It is noted as being a progressive
town, and I think its important that
whoever does this job looks into all of the
communities that make up Carrboro.
Frances Shetley, a resident of
Carrboro since 1957, said creating the
job is a good idea because of Carrboros
bountiful history and the transition it
has made from the small place it used
to be.
It is a cool little town today, she said.
Chapel Hill was a lot like it 25 years ago.
Now, Carrboro is the place to be.
Chaney said she is passionate about
the future and what this job means for
the town.
Everyone values history in Carrboro,
and the town has changed a lot in the
last 20 years, and it is going to keep
changing, Chaney said. This position
will add perspective to what we do.

To remember the two victims
of a hit-and-run accident a year
ago on U.S. Highway 15-501,
local cyclists held a group ride
Friday evening to replace painted
white ghost bikes to mark the
site of the accident.
The bikes were originally
placed at the site last year by
Aimee Argote, a Pittsboro resi-
dent who was the first person to
find the victims, Alexandria
Simou and Ivin Scurlock,
after the accident. The bikes
were recently taken down for
unknown reasons.
In an Aug. 22 press release,
the N.C. Department of Public
Safety said it was requesting the
publics assistance in finding out
who is responsible for the hit-
and-run.
The investigation is ongoing,
said Miracle King, a spokes-
woman for the N.C. Department
of Transportation.
The cyclists left Back Alley
Bikes at 6:40 p.m., with flowers
and the ghost bikes to place at
the scene. Argote said she orga-
nized the event to bring attention
to bike safety.
The more awareness that is
brought to the subject of bicycle
safety, the safer cyclists will feel
on the road, Argote said.
DTH/CATHERINE HEMMER
A year ago, two cyclists were struck and killed on U.S. 15-501. Friends rode
out to the site Friday with two decorated ghostbicycles in their honor.
Jason Merrill, one of the orga-
nizers of the event and one of the
owners of Back Alley Bikes, said
cyclists need to support each other.
Merrill said he knew the two
victims because they sometimes
came to his shop.
Jeramiah Morgan, a cyclist at
the event, said he didnt know
the victims, but he joined the
biking group to increase aware-
ness of bike accidents.
There will be more and more
bikes on the roads, so the cyclists
need to know where the danger-
ous areas are, and drivers need
to be cautious about bikes on the
road, he said.
Every traffic participant
should stick to the laws and
rules, said Rainer Dammers, a
Chapel Hill resident and cyclist
at the event.
While Morgan said he feels
safe biking every day, Dammers
said he does not.
Americans are not trained to
react to situations that may not be
standard to them, Dammers said.
He said bikes are not common
on roads, so car drivers do not
always know how to deal with
cyclists when they see them.
Dammers said increasing the
number of cyclists is the only
way to prevent accidents from
happening in the first place.
Unlike drivers, cyclists have
nothing to protect them and are
more vulnerable, Dammers said.

riticism of the
new Advanced
Placement U.S.
History (APUSH) cur-
riculum framework is
misplaced and fails to
acknowledge the merits of
the new structures intent.
The College Board
is the New York-based
company that creates,
administers and scores a
wide array of K-12 stan-
dardized tests, including
Advanced Placement
exams. According to its
new framework, released
in time for the 2014-15
round of tests, the purpose
of the APUSH course and
the subsequent exam is to
develop historical think-
ing skills at the level of
an introductory college
survey course, focusing on
seven learning objectives
including identity and
America in the world.
The College Board
should be applauded for a
new approach and a new
test format that encour-
ages students to focus
on critical thinking and
analysis of primary source
documents skills that
will serve them well not
only in college but also
throughout their profes-
sional lives. Rather than
solely emphasizing facts

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT
Climate change is an
issue of social justice
TO THE EDITOR:
I am in UNCs School
of Social Work masters
program, and my intern-
ship is with an interfaith
environmental organiza-
tion, NC Interfaith Power &
Light. Weird, huh?! Let me
explain.
This past winter was
brutal by North Carolina
standards and got me think-
ing a lot about climate
change, as day after day was
so unusually cold. While I
had not worked on environ-
mental issues before, having
majored in womens studies
and psychology in under-
grad and worked at the
Orange County Rape Crisis
Center before graduate
school, I started feeling like
I had to enlarge my focus to
include climate change. Its
a big change.
Im not giving up on the
other things that I care
about, though. For example,
a tragedy of sea level rise
is that small island nations
are literally being forced to
evacuate their homes. This
is more than environmen-
tal; this is social justice.
Another example: this
weekend, I took part in the
Peoples Climate March
in New York City. It was
the biggest environmental
event in history. And it was
more than that. Veterans,
farmworkers, public health
advocates, faith groups,
LGBT folks and even bee-
keepers all took part.
One of my favorite things
about UNC is its incred-
ibly passionate, involved
and diverse community. I
walked through campus
last week and could barely
make it through the Pit,
it was so crammed with
tables about volunteer-
ing and local farms selling
produce.
UNC (yes, all of you)
lets heed this challenge of
climate change and face it
together. I know we can do
something about it.
Please contact me at
reub@unc.edu if youd like
to work together.

revelers,

M
y high school cross-
country team had
summer practices
off campus. We interpreted the
term long run to mean long
time gone rather than long
distance traveled. Wed arrive
at 9 a.m., ditch our shirts and
jog a hilly, forested trail to the
dam on Vickery Creek.
The dam is old, and water
flows over it and through
chinks in the stacked stone.
The resulting cascade is wide
and strong with a deep pool
carved beneath it by years of
falling water.
The trail stops at the top
of the dam. The rest of the
way down is a steep tumble
of stacked boulders, slicked
black with wet mist and soft
green with healthy moss. It
was clean when I spent sum-
mers scampering down it after
the whooping, howling Lost
Boys of the mens team and
the equally high-spirited lady
runners.
When I went back last year,
the foot of the waterfall was
brown with foamy, polluted
scum, and the rocks were lit-
tered with beer bottles, condom
wrappers, a half-eaten container
of pasta salad, plastic bags,
unmatched flip flops and empty
water bottles. Several college-
aged kids in swimsuits and fash-
ionable sunglasses sunbathed
and Instagrammed from towels
laid over the stones.
There were no runners
jumping from the rocks or
trying to scale the waterfall.
There was no appreciation for
how cool the water feels after a
hike or how the sun glazes the
boulders gold in the late after-
noon or how the water bubbles
around the rocks like white
lace. There were kids smoking
cigarettes and flicking the ash
on the green moss. There were
kids drinking beer in a wake
of abandoned bottle caps and
broken glass.
I have a bone to pick with
people who go out into the
woods just to drink and smoke,
to seek isolation not for the
physical and mental chal-
lenge but so they have a better
chance of not getting caught
with the shrooms they brought
with them.
I dont have any philosophi-
cal beefs with drugs or alcohol,
but I do have a problem with
the lack of self-awareness that
comes with the territory. When
youre in the wilderness trying to
change your state of mind, you
forget to hang the food from a
tree and the animals get to it, or
you forget where youve put your
trash, or you answer natures call
and dont bury it. Things can get
nasty, and pristine wilderness
can become less than pristine
pretty fast.
Every time an oil tanker
goes over in the Pacific Ocean
or a factory dumps toxic waste
in a river, everyone gets up in
arms. What about that party
you had by Jordan Lake? That
cooler of beers you took to the
Eno River State Park? Were
you any more careful?
I love camping, even next
to RVs and hot dog-roasting
families. But if youre going to
do that and call it an outdoors
experience, at least try to be
friendly to the outdoors (and
other people) while youre
doing it. Disperse your camp-
fire ashes, pack out trash,
pick up those beer cans, those
bottle caps.
Leave no trace. Leave it bet-
ter than you found it.

that will help them answer
multiple-choice questions,
students are also asked
to assess trends and con-
struct sound arguments
to respond to broader the-
matic questions in short-
answer and essay formats.
This new system has
sparked a burgeoning
national debate, with sup-
porters appreciating the
frameworks nods to diver-
sity and the multi-faceted
nature of our nations his-
tory, while detractors claim
the new framework is too
narrow and too negative.
The Republican National
Committee has even gone
so far as to decry it as a
radically revisionist view.
Debate about history is
not a new concept, nor is
it an unproductive exer-
cise. And revising how
we think about history
can allow us to step out-
side our own experience
and understand how our
shared historical narra-
tive has been constructed.
If we continued to think
about American history
in the same way we did a
century ago, how could we
ever progress?
Instead of debating
what specifically should
or should not be included
in a history curriculum,
lawmakers and educators
ought to work together
to engender a construc-
tive discussion that leads
to generations of more
informed Americans.
The Texas State Board of
Education, in an extreme
case, has moved to throw
out the APUSH curricu-
lum altogether, citing the
differences between the
College Board framework
and the states history
standards. Such an action
would deprive thousands
of students the chance
to receive college credit
through the APUSH exam,
as well as reject the idea
that students ought to
become more informed
about both the triumphs
and the inequities of our
nations history.
Carefully manicured
narratives only reinforce
the type of denial respon-
sible for continued inac-
tion on behalf of those
who have been used and
discriminated against in
the course of this countrys
history. All is not yet well,
nor has it ever been. But
there has been great prog-
ress, and this new curricu-
lum is another step in the
right direction.
Squabbling over the
new APUSH framework
on the basis of its con-
tent is simply fruitless.
Our nations history is
rooted in more than just
American exceptionalism,
and acknowledging the
complexities of our past
is the first step to a bet-
ter understanding of our
present and our future.
Critical inquiry is
just what history
classes need.

Gazas Hamas authorities
have blocked a UN refugee
agency from introduc-

human rights into local

emphasize the peaceful
settlement of disputes and
also include the UNs 1948
Universal Declaration of
Human Rights that rec-

Why were facts like these
omitted from an article on

Of course, the article

Make sure to know
your voting rights
TO THE EDITOR:
Are you registered to vote
with your current address?
If youre like most people
on campus recently youve
probably heard this twice a
day for weeks. Its also likely
youve Yik Yakked, tweeted
and joked about the low-
lifers who have nothing bet-
ter to do than bother you in
the Pit, at Rams Head Plaza
and in front of your lecture
halls.
With the brouhaha that
surrounded the aptly-
named Senate Bill 666,
which failed, but threat-
ened to change the tax
status of students who reg-
istered to vote with college
addresses, many overlooked
the real changes that were
made to North Carolinas
voting.
So here are the facts,
from one of the low-lifers
herself.
Both in- and out-of-state
students have the right
to vote with their home
address or their Chapel Hill
address. Your parents can
still claim you as a depen-
dent, and your status as
an out-of-state or in-state
student will not change.
Registration for this years
midterm election closes
on Oct. 10. This makes
the early voter registration
efforts that you bemoan
incredibly important.
With shifting laws and
rampant voter apathy on
campus, Im proud of the
UNC Young Democrats
who have devoted many
hours to help others
know and practice their
rights. Next time you
feign a British accent,
shove in headphones or
pretend to take a call as
you approach a volunteer
with a clipboard, remem-
ber that theyre only here
to help you navigate the
complicated and changing
landscape of democracy in

his unprecedented
70-41 loss was so bad,
so shocking in the
worst of ways, that its left
North Carolina head football
coach Larry Fedora ques-
tioning everything.
A dejected Fedora took
the blame for his teams per-
formance after East Carolina
put a beatdown on the Tar
Heels Saturday in Greenville,
stressing that hes the one
who needs to step up.
Reevaluating the job that I
do, thats what Im concerned
with right now because Ive
gotta do a better job, he said.
Ive gotta do a better job with
the staff, Ive gotta do a bet-
ter job with the players and if
we start at the top, then well
work our way down.
It does start with the head
coach. And UNCs case is no
different.
But the players still have
to show up, and just behind
Fedora, the defense is to
blame for Saturdays loss.
UNCs defense gave up a
record-high 70 points and
789 yards to the fast-paced
Pirates led by standout
veterans Shane Carden and
Justin Hardy.
After missing 34 tackles
against San Diego State two

weeks ago, Fedora and the
defense proved that even
after two weeks of prepara-
tion thanks to a bye week,
they still didnt have the
fundamentals down against
ECU. Yes, the Pirates have
a standout quarterback in
Carden that many dont
credit enough. And yes, the
Pirates are certainly a top-
25-caliber team, one that
has a shot to be consistently
ranked after this week.
But that doesnt make up
for the fact that the UNC
defense allowed nine touch-
downs five rushing, four
passing to a team that
was still missing its leading
receiver.
Perhaps part of the prob-
lem stems from the uncon-
ventional 4-2-5 defense that
defensive coordinator Vic
Koenning employs.
Perhaps it has something
to do with youth and the
loss of NFL talents Kareem
Martin, Tre Boston and
Jabari Price.
But whatever it is, its time
to figure it out. The coaches
can certainly help, but at the
end of the day, players must
play. And in a mere five days,
all of those same defenders
will travel to Clemson to play
in Death Valley. They ll take
on the same Dabo Swinney
team that almost upset No. 1
Florida State in Tallahassee
Saturday night in over-
time and with more than
80,000 screaming fans there
in orange and purple, it ll
be the most hostile environ-
ment for the Tar Heels yet.
Fedora seems to have faith
in Koenning.
Hes a good football
coach, Fedora said. He ll
get it right. He didnt on
Saturday.
The UNC defense fell
asleep at the beginning of the
second quarter and snoozed
the rest of the evening.
Now its time to wake up.
And with just five days until
the biggest game of the sea-
son, time is running thin.
The defenses response will determine the Tar Heels future.
Defense now in spotlight

Bartram family escapades on display
DTH/DAN ONEILL
Highlighting the legacy of John and William Bartram, the Following in the Bartrams Footsteps
traveling exhibit is on display at the North Carolina Botanical Garden through Nov. 2.
The family is the
subject of a
traveling exhibition.
This is your chance
to immerse yourself
in the world of the
Enlightenment
Peter White,
Director of the N.C. Botanical Garden
By Dan ONeill
Staff Writer
Walking through the North
Carolina Botanical Garden
is like walking through the
uncultivated American land-
scape with its first botanical
adventurers.
Following in the Bartrams
Footsteps is a traveling exhibi-
tion hosted by the botanical
gardens in Chapel Hill and is
running through Nov. 2. It is
an exploration into the botani-
cal, literary and scientific leg-
acy of the father-and-son duo,
John and William Bartram.
The Bartrams are consid-
ered the founding fathers of
botany, and William is largely
accepted as the first American
natural history botanist.
William was the first per-
son to see and record some
of the animals common to
us today, said Carol Woodin,
director of exhibitions at the
American Society of Botanical
Artists. He has an innocence
and freshness to his work
through which he invented
himself and the way art con-
tinues to work today.
The North Carolina
Collection Gallery located
in Wilson Library currently
has three facsimile editions of
Bartrams illustrations on dis-
play, including the 1792 edition
of his book Travels.
Travels was inspira-
tional to Thoreau and Charles
Darwin, and it has this histor-
ical enlightenment connec-
tion that attracts people from
the University and elsewhere
who are interested in that his-
torical theme, said herbology
professor Peter White, direc-
tor of the botanical garden.
White said the exhibition
has enjoyed great success so
far and has been well attend-
ed, thanks to its interdisciplin-
ary appeal.
There are all kinds of
things from lectures, which
have been drawing 200 to 250
people at the weekends, said
White. It attracts the botani-
cal illustration crowd, the pure
botanists, ecologists, conserva-
tionists and the scientists.
White described the variety
of opportunities available to
guests, including the garden-
ing workshops, plant identi-
fication workshops and other
educational events.
This is your chance to
immerse yourself in the world
of the Enlightenment in the
1700s from many different
aspects, many different voices
and many different people,
he said.
Emily Jack, who represents
the North Carolina Collection
Gallery, focused on the sig-
nificance the Bartrams have
had on the development of
Americas natural history.
I think the Bartrams are
important because they were
living and working at a time
when the country was very
young and where people were
really engaged with exploring
those things, she said. When
you read Bartrams Travels,
its this electric prose where
you can sense his excitement
about the plants that he is
discovering.
For Woodin, one of the
most exciting things about
studying the Bartrams is that
people today can still take the
same journey they did over
two centuries ago.
To me, what is really excit-
ing is that these plants still
exist, Jack said, So we can go
out and see these things that
he illustrated. Its a great way
to connect to this time, when
everything seemed so new.

raid offense that Coach Ruffin
McNeill has been using for
years. Senior quarterback
Shane Carden had no prob-
lems getting the Pirates into
the end zone, from the first
drive which took all of
three plays and 56 seconds
to the last.
We were outcoached, out-
played, everything, Fedora
said. And I take full responsi-
bility for it.
All evening long, the one
area of the game where the
Tar Heels consistently looked
lost was on defense.
Redshirt junior linebacker
Jeff Schoettmer didnt know
what specifically the Pirates
did to muster 446 passing
yards and 343 rushing yards,
but he did know it was the
defense as a whole. Not one
player or position group
deserved the blame.
I mean they beat us on
some long plays some long
passes and some long runs,
he said. Thats not one part
of the defense, the second-
ary, or the linebackers or
the D-line. Thats everyone
together, you know? So you
cant point fingers. Its the
defense as a whole.
We messed up.
Fedora said it had a lot to
do with the fact that UNC
couldnt stop the run
notably senior running back
Breon Allen, who ran for a
career-high 211 yards.
If you dont stop the run,
you allow them to be two-
dimensional, Fedora said.
It makes it really tough, and
thats what we did tonight.
For the second year in a row,
the Tar Heels didnt have an
answer for what East Carolina
brought onto the field. That
has left players and coaches
wondering what went wrong,
trying to figure out how to put
it behind them and move on.
It makes you reevaluate
everything, Fedora said. It
makes you reevaluate who
you are, who I am and who
we are as a football team.
We ll find out a lot about
who we are, we really will.

the governments role in dic-

North Carolina is one of
29 states that does not pro-
hibit employee discrimination
based on sexual orientation.
Mitch Kokai, policy ana-
lyst for the right-leaning
John Locke Foundation, said
Pittengers comments are con-
troversial because of the atten-
tion on LGBT rights nationally.
He was trying to say that
the government should not
propose too many protections
on private businesses, he said.
But N.C. Sen. Josh Stein,
D-Wake, said he disagreed
with Pittengers remarks. Stein
has been an advocate in the
N.C. General Assembly for
LGBT employee protections.
Whom somebody loves
should have absolutely no bear-
ing on being hired, he said.
Steins 2013 bill failed in the
GOP-controlled legislature.
LGBT advocacy group
Equality N.C. said in a state-
ment that Pittengers com-
ments reflect a pressing need
to update state laws govern-
ing workplace equality.
Pittengers discriminatory
statements shed new light on
a harsh reality for gay and les-
bian North Carolinians, said
Jen Jones, spokeswoman for
Equality N.C.
She said the group will push
for changes to the states non-
discrimination laws in 2015.

Library celebrates
banned books
By Parth Shah and Wei Zhou
Staff Writers
Move over Pokemon:
Chapel Hill Public Library
trading cards are the next big
thing.
This week, visitors to the
library will receive a limited
edition trading card designed
by a local artist as part of
Banned Books Week. Each
card features a different
banned book with information
about why the book is banned.
Library director Susan
Brown began the trading card
project at a library in Kansas.
I was a little bit bored
with Banned Books Week,
Brown said. Its a really com-
pelling message, but every
year they do posters and book
displays and programs.
Brown launched the pro-
gram in Chapel Hill in 2013.
Artists were asked to submit
pieces inspired by a banned
book or author the top
seven were made into cards.
It really works for a town
like Chapel Hill because there
are a lot of great artists here,
and its a progressive college
town, so the message of intel-
lectual freedom resonates,
she said.
The finalists were chosen by
a panel including Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt and members of
the local arts community.
This year, the contest drew
73 entries, a two-fold increase
from last year. Reference
librarian Shannon Bailey said
the trading cards have gar-
nered international attention.
Weve been selling them
in South Africa people
have been ordering last years
(cards) Canada and all over
the world, Bailey said.
Bailey said books get
banned for a variety of rea-
sons. She gave the example
of Black Beauty, a childrens
book about a horse.
It had actually been
banned in South Africa at one
point because a South African
politician who had never read
the book thought it was a pro-
civil rights and anti-apartheid
book, so he banned it based on
the title, Bailey said.
Between 2000 and 2009,
more than 5,000 books were
challenged in the U.S.
I dont think people realize
its still happening. Randolph
County last year banned
The Invisible Man. That was
in North Carolina, not too far
from here, Bailey said.
Chapel Hill resident Jolmar
Miller has won the contest two
years in a row with pieces that
feature authors Toni Morrison
and Maya Angelou. Miller said
African American literature
wasnt offered to her as a child.
When I started reading it,
I felt this immediate sense of
gratification. Someone heard
my voice, they recognized me
as a person, and I hadnt had
that before, said Miller.
As a mother, Miller said
she understands why parents
wouldnt want their children
exposed to certain things.
However, I also think in the
grand scheme of things these
books should be out here. Once
we start banning something,
once we start censoring some-
thing, where do we draw the
line on what can or cannot be
censored? she said.
Bailey said banning books
can be counterintuitive.
If a teenager is told theyre
not supposed to do something,
theyre going to want to read
it. It gets kids excited about
books, which is pretty cool.

Church yard sale
draws big crowds
Field hockey suers
rst loss this season
DTH/KENDALL BAGLEY
Shoppers waited outside of University United Methodist Church
on East Franklin Street Saturday for the annual yard sale.
By Shuyan Huang
Staff Writer
For Katharine Robinson,
the massive yard sale on
Franklin Street Saturday was
an economical way to buy
items for her children.
Robinson, assistant direc-
tor for curriculum of UNCs
World View program, said she
and her husband like to buy
childrens items from the sale
because children grow out of
their clothing quickly.
Robinson was one of
many people who benefited
from the University United
Methodist Churchs annual
yard sale, which serves the
community and supports
charity organizations.
The sale was organized
by the churchs United
Methodist Women and has
been serving the community
for 10 years.
The yard sales gross
proceeds were more than
$10,000, said Dale Flexner,
the president of United
Methodist Women.
We provide a source for
inexpensive items for people
in town, Flexner said. UMW
sponsors it, but it is all of the
church working together that
makes the yard sale happen.
The sale was run by volun-
teers from the church.
Brooks Walker, a sopho-
more at East Chapel Hill High
School, said he has volun-
teered at the sale for five years.
Church members and their
friends donated a variety
of items, including clothes,
books, furniture, collectibles
and various household items.
Wei Li, a visiting scholar at
UNC, said he heard about the
event through the Fellowship
Association of Chinese
Students and Scholars mail-
ing list at UNC.
The Saturday sale
raised money for
local charities.
This is my first time to live
in United States, Li said.
I would love to know what
yard sale looks like and also
get some household items.
Li said he bought a toy bas-
ket, a vase, mugs and CDs.
Vanessa Garcia, a fresh-
man at Durham Technical
Community College, said she
and her family came because
they saw signs for the event.
We just look around and
see what we can find, Garcia
said. The yard sale is really
good and organized. There are
a lot of nice, helpful people.
Linda Griffin, chairwoman
of the yard sale and member
of the Methodist church, said
the money raised from the
yard sale will be donated to
different organizations.
Last year, we raised about
$12,000 and gave all of them
away to local needy folks and
nearly 20 organizations,
Griffin said.
The proceeds from the sale
will go toward programs that
support the poor, victims of
domestic violence and people
with mental illnesses.
Flexner said they have
donated the money to many
organizations, including the
Inter-Faith Council for Social
Service and Imagine No
Malaria.
Elizabeth Garfunkel, the
executive assistant at the
Inter-Faith Council, said
the church supports the IFC
throughout the year.
We can never offer the
same level of services with-
out the support we receive
from the local congregation,
Garfunkel said.
Flexner said items that
werent sold at the yard sale
were donated to the PTA
Thrift Shop.
It doesnt just stop today,
she said. It has more impact
than just one day.

The outcome of a 75 minute
field hockey game is contingent
upon the 60 minutes preced-
ing it. Bad warm-ups equal
bad results, and this weekend
in Louisville, Ky., UNCs field
hockey team learned this les-
son the hard way.
Youve got to get those
touches and the reps before
heading into the game,
senior forward Loren Shealy
said. Its a crucial part of it. I
dont think our intensity and
focus was where it shouldve
been against Louisville.
And it showed. After an
uncharacteristic, flat-footed
start on Saturday, No. 1 UNC
(5-1, 1-1 ACC) suffered its first
loss of the season to No. 14
Louisville (6-1, 1-1 ACC) by a
margin of 3-2.
We knew our warm up
was not sufficient, Shealy
said. It was lack of focus and
a lack of working as hard as
you possibly can to complete
the drills and to make sure
youre doing everything you
can to get ready for the game.
The Tar Heels have scored
the majority of their previous
goals in the first half, but at
Trager Stadium, they found
themselves caught in a slug-
gish midfield battle.
UNCs fundamental
skills lacked finesse, and
the Cardinals exploited this
weakness, netting a pair of
goals before the end of the
half. For the first time all
season, North Carolina found
itself in an extremely vulner-
able position.
We came into the lions
den at Louisville, Coach
Karen Shelton said. (The
difference was) their corner
execution. They had four
corners, and they scored on
three. We had four corners,
and we basically didnt get a
shot on goal.
Senior forward Charlotte
Craddock finally found the
net for the Tar Heels and then
the equalizer only a minute
later. Despite this glimmer
of hope for UNC, penalty
corners ultimately proved to
be the teams Achilles heel
when the Cardinals scored
the game-winner off a pen-
alty play with five minutes
remaining.
North Carolina had less
than 24 hours to reflect on
the loss before returning to
Trager Stadium Sunday to
face Miami University of Ohio
(2-7, 0-0 MAC).
The Tar Heels managed
to turn their fate around and
shut out the Red Hawks in
a 3-0 victory. However, this
dominance was met with dis-
appointment.
I dont think we came
out as strong of a team
and played together like
we have in the past, junior
midfielder Emily Wold said.
This weekend was not as
intense, and we did not play
our game.
The Tar Heels statisti-
cally outperformed the Red
Hawks but still tallied several
careless turnovers mis-
takes that boil down to pre-
paredness.
We knew our warm-up
was not to the level we need
to perform the game and
to focus before we step on
the field, Shealy said. Its
something we will continue
to focus on. (When) weve
had great warm ups, that
feeds into a better start of the
game.

The Blue Devils sunk No. 1 UNC for the Tar Heels second loss of season
MENS SOCCER: NORTH CAROLINA 1, DUKE 2
By Andrew Romaine
Staff Writer
DURHAM Senior defender
Boyd Okwuonu stood animated
behind UNCs human wall, shout-
ing instructions and making hurried
adjustments as Duke midfielder Sean
Davis lined up a free kick from just
outside the penalty box. Okwuonu,
the 2013 ACC Defender of the Year,
was directing traffic as usual for a
team that had held opponents score-
less for four straight games.
This time, though, Okwuonus
orchestration was for naught. All
he could do was watch as the ball
arched perfectly into the upper left
corner of the net. In an instant,
Okwuonu and his teammates turned
lifeless as Dukes bench raced onto
the field to celebrate the 75th-min-
ute equalizer in Durham.
Six minutes later, the Blue Devils
(3-2-1, 1-1-0 ACC) scored again to
hand No. 1 UNC (5-2-0, 1-1-0 ACC) its
second loss of the season. And just like
that, the Tar Heel defense suffered a
dent in its aura of invincibility.
As a leader on the field, I just
try to keep everyone organized, be
strong defensively and live for shut-
outs, Boyd said. And we didnt get
that done (Friday). I take responsi-
bility for that.
Though Dukes late scoring out-
burst came suddenly, it was the
culmination of a lackadaisical sec-
ond-half effort by the UNC defense.
While the Blue Devils emerged from
the locker room looking sharper and
more aggressive on the attack, the
Tar Heels legs appeared heavy.
After the game, Coach Carlos
Somoano struggled to pinpoint the
reasons for UNCs defensive lull. He
pondered physical exhaustion, inad-
equate mental preparation and inef-
fective substitutions. Forward Tyler
Engel, who scored the Tar Heels only
goal in the 38th minute, attributed
the sluggish play to a lack of urgency.
Id say as a whole team, we just
have to come out ready for that
second half a lot better and just be
more prepared and put a harder
shift in, Engel said. They just out-
competed us, I guess. Weve just got
to come out and not let that hap-
pen.
Despite the defenses unchar-
acteristic woes, Okwuonu was his
usual self. He was seemingly every-
where, intercepting passes, disrupt-
ing scoring chances and chasing
down attackers on the breakaway.
After Dukes game-tying goal, as
goalkeeper Brendan Moore punted
the ball in frustration and most
of the Tar Heel defenders walked
away stunned, it was Okwuonu who
remained poised and confident. He
clapped his hands, urging his team-
mates to stay focused. But he wasnt
able to summon the energy needed
to prevent another Duke goal.
As the public address announcer
counted down the games final
seconds, UNCs players slumped
over and brought hands to knees,
their bodies spent and their minds
searching for answers.
First of all, we cant put ourselves
in that situation, Okwuonu said.
When we do, we have to figure out
a way to respond. We dont have the
answers right now, but we ll get it.
As the defense tries to return
to top form before Fridays game
against Notre Dame, it will look
for ways to sustain its intensity and
respond to adversity. A good place to
start: Follow Boyd Okwuonus lead.

1, 1-0-0 ACC) to beat No. 18 Notre
Dame 3-2 after trailing by two goals at
halftime in the ACC opener.
It was surreal, said Nigro of her
winning goal. After I scored I was
in disbelief. I turned around and the
entire team was already on the field. It
was an amazing experience.
Just moments into the second
overtime period, midfielder Joanna
Boyles sent a pass down the right side
to Cameron Castleberry. Castleberry
attempted a deep cross from the right
corner that bounced past the Notre
Dame defense and allowed Nigro to
finish neatly into the lower left corner.
Notre Dame isnt used to losing
when leading by two goals at halftime
especially since they never have.
Notre Dame is now 350-1-1 in games
when leading by two at the half.
Coach Anson Dorrance said the
game plan was to beat the Fighting
Irish (5-3-1, 0-1-0 ACC) with depth
and the Tar Heel style, which is to
play the game at a sprint for as long as
possible. To utilize that style, a few dif-
ferent scenarios of patterned substitu-
tions were used throughout the game.
The frequent substitutions led to
Nigro seeing only 18 minutes of action.
She sacrifices herself for her team-
mates at every opportunity, Dorrance
said. When she got her shot, she
stepped up and won the game for us. I
couldnt be happier for her.
She ll remember that goal for the
rest of her life, as will I.
Nigros first goal of the season
and second of her UNC career put
finished a hard fought match that also
included two goals from Castleberry
and Boyles in the second half.
Castleberry said she was disap-
pointed in her performance in the first
half, which led to her early substitu-
tion. When her number was called in
the second half, it only took her 34
seconds and two touches to put the
Tar Heels on the board.
I knew I wanted to make a differ-
ence when I came back in, so I just went
straight for goal, Castleberry said. I
had an opening and took a chance.
With only 14 minutes left in regula-
tion, UNC earned a free kick at the top
of the box. Boyles stepped up and boot-
ed the direct free kick into the top right
corner for the equalizer. Notre Dames
goalkeeper was helpless against what
Dorrance called a brilliant free kick
and one of the best he had ever seen.
I told them I didnt care if we lost
the game, Dorrance said. But lets go
down with guns blazing and at least
play with some pride.

VOLLEYBALL: NORTH CAROLINA 3, OKLAHOMA 0

their dominating win against West Virginia University Saturday.

Staff Writer
Before Fridays matchup against
Oklahoma, North Carolina vol-
leyball coach Joe Sagula said the
Sooners were one of the best teams
on the schedule, boasting a 9-2
record.
But by the end of the match,
the No. 13 North Carolina volley-
ball team was not impressed.
UNC defeated Oklahoma 3-1
and would go on to beat West
Virginia 3-0 on Saturday to sweep
the ACC-Big 12 Classic.
In the first two sets, the Sooners
struggled. But for the UNC middle
blockers, it was a block party.
The Tar Heels blocked
Oklahoma four times in the first
set and three times in the second
to keep up with their season aver-
age of 3.12 per set.
But UNC came out of the lock-
er room flat and committed six
attack errors, allowing Oklahoma
to take the third set.
Sagula said the third set was
about UNC beating itself.
I thought we played without a
real attention and focus, Sagula
said. We just made some more
errors, unforced ones. But I thought
we made a good push at the end.
UNCs push carried over into
the fourth set, shutting down the
Sooners 25-18 to finish the match.
Sophomore outside hitter
Tatiana Durr said after the third
set, the message in the huddle was
to keep Oklahoma from gaining
more momentum.
Oklahoma served really tough
in the third set. They got us off
our groove a little bit, Durr
said. In the fourth set, we really
emphasized coming back out,
getting good passes and putting
swings away immediately and not
let them go on any runs.
Against West Virginia, UNC had
little trouble. The Mountaineers
never led and only managed to tie
the game once in the second set.
Similar to its match with
Oklahoma, the Tar Heels had a
2-0 lead going into the fourth set.
Sagula said the message in the
locker room did not change.
We couldve pressed the record-
ing from last night, Sagula said.
I think the difference was we put
enough good things together and
had some big blocks.
The Tar Heels are now 9-1 and
winners of seven straight games.
Senior outside hitter Lauren
McAdoo said she knows the team
can have a special year. She added
that the team doesnt pay attention
to what other people think of them.
Instead, they ll have tunnel
vision until the postseason.
Were trying not to put so much
emphasis on preseason this year
because we put a lot of emphasis
on preseason last year and didnt
finish in postseason like we wanted
to, McAdoo said. So were trying to
focus on maintaining this effort the
entire season and mostly a lot of the
focus in December, when it matters
the most.
