Serving UNC students and the University community since 1893

Thirteen years, seven books, 4,175 pages
(depending on the edition), six box-office
hits and one theme park later, a generation
owes some of its most magical moments
to a boy named Harry Potter.
Even at UNC, students have attempted
to travel beyond their muggle lives by
writing theses about Potter’s world and
searching for snitches on the University’s
quads.
And today’s release of the latest
Warner Brothers movie, part one of
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,”
will mark the beginning of an end for
the generation defined by J.K. Rowling’s
creation.

Books impact academia Quidditch comes to Chapel Hill

by Sarayu Kumar
staff writer
The release of the anxiously awaited first part
of the seventh Harry Potter movie has piqued the
interest of millions around the globe.
UNC students are no exception.
And given Harry Potter’s presence in popu-
lar culture for the past 14 years, many students
have brought magic to their muggle classrooms,
through dissertations or research.
At the University, students have pursued a
character who they say exudes bravery, defiance
and, above all else, hope.
“This is a kid who appeals to people all over
the world,” said Sarah Cantrell, PhD candidate in
comparative literature whose dissertation focused
on the worldwide appeal of Harry Potter.
“He dares to defy authority and that kind of
rebellion gives children lots of hope.
“Characters like Neville Longbottom and
Luna Lovegood are able to foster their own sense
of agency. It’s amazing to see the connections
people make with this book.”
Cantrell’s work also focused more specifically on
the effect of modern British young adult fantasy
fiction on French literature.
After the translation of Harry Potter into
French, the fantasy genre in France has become
more accepted, she said.
“There is no way of talking about fantasy with-
out talking about the effect that Harry Potter
has had on the current generation and on the
publishing market,” she said. “There are very few
languages that Harry Potter isn’t published in.”
Cantrell’s research concluded that youth need
hope, and Harry Potter offers a way to escape
from the real world.
“Young people are on the bottom of the totem
people,” she said. “They don’t have a voice in
Congress, can’t vote, and can’t drive. There are
lots of rules and regulations that govern them.
They are inspired by Harry who acts in spite of

The blue-clad team is lined up side by side,
eyes closed. Brooms lay on the ground.
The “snitch” runs away to hide. The referee
screams “Brooms Up!” and the Quidditch match
begins.
Kelder Monar, the team’s seeker and a junior
at UNC, runs after the snitch while holding a
broom between his legs.
His $3 game broom, a 3-foot-long regulation
broom from a magic shop, is decorated with lime
green and silver duct tape and spray painted light
blue. The handle is bamboo, making it light-
weight and easy to carry.
“Neither one of my brooms (practice or game-
day) is comparable to a Nimbus 2000, or Firebolt,
or a Cleansweep or a Comet or any other kind of
non-Muggle broom,” Monar said, referring to
broom models in a sport played by flying witches
and wizards in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series.
“They just don’t fly.”
Students playing “Muggle Quidditch,” or
Quidditch for non-wizards, is a phenomenon
which began in 2005 as an intramural sport at
Middlebury College in Vermont and only recently
reached Chapel Hill.
A group of Harry Potter fans and Quidditch
aficionados started UNC’s team, “The Old Well
Wizards,” this fall and proved their worth when
they beat N.C. State in October by a score of 160-
70.
The team will take on Duke University, N.C.
State and UNC-Greensboro this weekend and
they said they hope to maintain their winning
streak.
“We have a lot of talented players, so we’ll defi-
nitely take the win once again,” freshman Erica
Konczal said. “Duke looked awful, weak and
pathetic,” at a tournament last week, she said.
Konczal said playing Quidditch for the first
time was the happiest day of her life.
She plays chaser for the UNC team, tasked
with scoring with the quaffle — or deflated vol-

Cafes display a variety
of local artists’ works
by Thankful Cromartie
staff writer
From month to month, the visual ambiance
of Chapel Hill’s Cup A Joe cafe is never the
same. Sometimes, pictures of stumps line the
blank white walls. Other months, fantastical
landscapes lend the shop a magical air.
It all depends on the art.
During the month of November, Chapel
Hill artist and UNC alum Tola Oguntoyinbo
displayed his mixed media and acrylic paint-
ings at Chapel Hill’s Caffé Driade and Cup A
Joe, adding color to the spaces and leaving
patrons staring at walls for hours.
Oguntoyinbo’s large-scale painted wood
pieces feature vivid, abstract landscapes and
human-like figures.
While he isn’t concerned with earning a
living wage through his art, the artist hopes
to display his favorite works in a place other
than his home.
“It’s great to not just have your work in a
studio,” Oguntoyinbo said. “It’s a more casual
space.” The Chapel Hill artist’s chief employ-
ment is at a software development startup.
Elizabeth Meunier, co-owner of Open
Eye Café in Carrboro and Chapel Hill’s Caffé
Driade, said she understands the importance
of giving both budding and established art-
ists the opportunity to display their work
without paying a commission.
“My father’s an artist and I know how
hard he worked,” Meunier said. “I couldn’t
do that to anyone.”
Coffee and creative spaces
Walking into Open Eye, it’s hard not to
feel inspired. From scrap-art sculptures at
the cafe’s entrance to vintage doors leaning
Nature photographs by artist Stan Lewis are displayed at Open Eye Café in Carrboro. As
a part of its mission, the cafe regularly features the work of local artists on its walls.
nonchalantly against walls, the shop seems
almost to breathe a creative aura.
Often called the town’s living room, the
coffee shop has earned this epithet in its
more than 10 years of existence. Residents
flock to the space for non-corporate coffee
and to immerse themselves in a visually
stimulating setting.
The owners’ commitment to giving local
artists and musicians the opportunity — at
no cost — to share their work within the
context of a small, friendly community fits
this living room moniker well.
Nature photographs by Stan Lewis, which
feature curious-looking close-ups of flora
and fauna, hung from the cafe’s walls dur-
ing the month of November.
dth/mary-alice warren
Meuiner’s other shop, Caffé Driade, is
small and intimate. Nestled in the trees
along East Franklin Street, the cafe is qui-
eter than the bustling Open Eye, but the two
shops share similar qualities.
Potential applicants to work at both shops
are encouraged to submit a piece of art that
is indicative of their passion for coffee.
Lisa Ramsden, a recent job applicant
to Driade, created a large collage in the
shape of a latte during her application pro-
cess. Doubling as a written letter, the piece
expressed her desire to contribute to Driade’s
creative coffee culture.

dards Greek organizations must

deferred rush and removal of official
recognition as punishments for not
meeting the standards.
Vice Chancellor for Student
Affairs Winston Crisp will be respon-
sible for fulfilling the resolutions,
passed unanimously. He said his first
step will be to pull together a staff
that will create the standards.
The resolution calls for Crisp to
present the plan to the committee
in January, and for the plan to be
in place by Aug. 1, 2011.
Administrators and Greek
leaders said they were satisfied
with the decision.
Bob Winston, chairman of the
board, said the resolution ben-
efits from the fact that it is not
one-sided.
“We can put in all kinds of rules
and regulations and that will have
an effect, but the fraternity system
itself has to decide it will do certain
things and be held accountable for
their actions and improve their
actions,” he said.
Crisp said he thought the com-
mittee recommended the best
option it considered.
“It’s the one that I think has the
best chance of affecting real and
positive change for the community,”
he said.
Committee members cited the
fact that they found no definite evi-
dence to suggest spring rush would
help freshman assimilation.
But not all trustees were in
agreement about the resolution.
Roger Perry, a member of the
University affairs committee, said
he doesn’t think the resolution will
improve freshman assimilation
into University life.

Documents show
workers’ histories
by Sarah Glen
Assistant City Editor
After losing their jobs at the end
of October, two Chapel Hill work-
ers have decided they won’t give up
their employment without a fight,
but town documents show their
battle may be a difficult one.
A town memorandum dated
Oct. 29 from Public Works Director
Lance Norris states that Kerry
Bigelow and Clyde Clark were fired
for insubordination, threatening or
intimidating behavior and unsatis-
factory job performance.
Bigelow and Clark, who were
fired from their solid waste posi-
tions Oct. 29 after being placed on
paid leave for five weeks, filed griev-
ances with Chapel Hill regarding
their terminations Friday.
“We gave them something to do
on a Friday afternoon,” said Alan
McSurely, the civil rights attorney
who represents Bigelow and Clark.
Town Spokeswoman Catherine
Lazorko said less than 10 percent
of fired employees appeal their ter-
minations and even fewer are suc-
cessful in their endeavor. The man-

a hearing on the matter, she said.
McSurely said finding jobs will be
especially difficult for Bigelow and
Clark, who are both black, during
the current economic downturn.
“If the white population is get-
ting a cold, the black community
is catching pneumonia,” he said,
referring to unemployment.
Policy dictates that Town
Manager Roger Stancil address the
grievances and either rule on them
himself or direct them to a person-
nel appeals committee.
If their appeals before Stancil are
unsuccessful, Bigelow and Clark
have seven days to request a hearing
before the personnel appeals com-
mittee. According to the town’s web-
site, the committee normally consists
of nine community members and
one council liaison, but three seats
are currently vacant.
This second hearing can be either
open or closed, whichever option
the employee prefers. During 2010,
there have been only three personnel
appeals committee hearings.
During these upcoming hear-
ings, either the town manager or
the appeals committee will review
Bigelow and Clark’s files and judge
if their firings were appropriate.
Town reports include documenta-
tion of a July incident where Bigelow,

Four Loko flies o≠ the shelves Students find

it di∞cult to
FDA ban has students stocking up

change majors
by Cassie McLean
staff writer
Local stores in the Chapel Hill
and Carrboro area are selling Four
Loko drinks faster than they can
keep the shelves stocked after a
recent federal decision is forcing
makers of the popular drink to
remove its caffeine content.
J.D. Schlick, manager of TJ’s
Beverage and Tobacco in Carrboro
said he has seen an increase in stu-
dents coming to buy the limited
supply of Four Loko.
Schlick said he expects his store’s
stock — he has only six cases left —
to sell out as soon as today.
Schlick said he does not think
the ban will aid in the safety of
consumers.
“People are just going to go out
and drink vodka and get in car
accidents,” Schlick said.
The FDA released a warning
statement Wednesday to four
companies who distribute malt
alcoholic beverages, including
Four Loko, warning the caffeine in
their drinks poses a public health
concern.
The company must remove
the caffeine or face the FDA, who
could seize the products or prevent
manufacturing until the problem is
remedied.
“FDA does not find support for
the claim that the addition of caf-
feine to these alcoholic beverages
is ‘generally recognized as safe’,
which is the legal standard,” wrote
Dr. Joshua M. Sharfstein, principal
deputy commissioner, in an FDA
statement.
“To the contrary, there is evi-
dence that the combinations of caf-
feine and alcohol in these products
pose a public health concern.”
But junior Matt Miller said all
alcohol is dangerous — not only
Four Loko — and the fact that the
government is forcing drink mak-
ers to alter their brew in order to
prevent people from being irre-
sponsible is foolish.
“It’s upsetting that we’re not get-
ting a choice to drink whatever we
like,” he said.
“It’s all about personal respon-
sibility.”
Miller, who bought a case
Wednesday from Key Food Mart,
said everyone else in the store was
purchasing a case as well.
Emad Moukhly, an employee at
Key Food Mart, said he placed the
product in both the front and back

of the store.
He could not meet consumer
demand.
“They’re pissed,” Moukhly said
of buyers’ reactions to the FDA’s
decision.
Senior Chris Wollman said
he thought the drink tasted ter-
rible, but said he was nonetheless
critical of the government regula-
tion.
dth/james carras
“In my opinion, I don’t think the
government needs to take it to that
point,” he said.
“They’re two legal substances—
caffeine and alcohol. People can
make the same concoction on their
own or at bars by mixing Red Bull
and alcohol.”

UNC-system schools want to help
by MADELINE WILL
staff writer
For UNC-Charlotte sophomore
Alexis Waller, changing majors at
her previous school was a compli-
cated experience.
Waller first enrolled at N.C. State
University as a biomedical engi-
neering major, but later decided to
switch to biology.
“Because they’re both science
majors, it wasn’t as hard, but I had
to reapply to the biology program,”
she said.
And many of Waller’s engineer-
ing credits did not transfer.
“I thought I would probably
graduate a semester late,” she said.
“I had to stack up on summer
classes.”
Complications with changing
her major ended up being one of
the main reasons Waller trans-
ferred to UNC-C this year.
To help students in similar situ-
ations, university administrators
at NCSU are considering a change
“I think a lot of
students discover
new possibilities,
and I hope that’s
what they do.”
bobbi owen, senior associate dean
for undergraduate education
as soon as possible,” she said. “But
it depends on the individual situ-
ation.”
For some students, a change in
majors could result in a delay of
graduation plans.
NCSU has a 72 percent six-year
graduation rate compared to UNC-
CH’s 88 percent six-year gradua-
tion rate.
Bobbi Owen, senior associate
dean for undergraduate education
at UNC, said the higher percent
could be contributed to UNC’s sim-
pler process of changing majors.

Town o∞cials plan upcoming budget

O∞ces will submit goals to mayor
by Yunzhu Zhang
staff writer
Chapel Hill officials are working
to outline the coming fiscal year’s
top priorities before the next bud-
get session.
Each town board and commis-
sion, including economic growth,
public arts and transit, will sub-
mit goals to the mayor’s office in
order to help the Chapel Hill Town
Council form guidelines to keep in
mind as they help lay out the bud-
get.
Economic Development Officer
Dwight Bassett said his division
has established two strategic initia-
tives which seek to improve office
and retail development that it will
forward to the mayor’s office.
Bassett said the department
has evaluated an office market
survey that looks into office space
in Chapel Hill and the market
demand of that space.
“We have a desire, long term, to
grow that (office) absorption and
increase our market demand of
office space to about 30,000 square
feet,” Bassett said.
Public Art Administrator Jeffrey
York said his department is work-
ing to incorporate cultural arts,
specifically in terms of perfor-
mances and music, into their plans
for next year.
“We are working on trying to
find a particular venue or place
to hold cultural arts events,” York
said.
He said there are several proj-
ects the department is currently
working on, including the col-
laboration between the town and
the 140 West development as well
as the renovation and expansion
of the library.
York said he thinks the 2011-
2012 fiscal budget will either be
the same as or slightly constricted
from the current one.
“I think all the departments
may be asked to cut two or three
percent, but I’m not anticipating it
going up,” he said.
Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt said
transit will also be on the town’s
top priority list in next year’s
budget, along with updating the
Comprehensive Plan and stimulat-
ing downtown development.
The plan seeks to outline future
actions the town can take toward
improvement.
One of the plan’s proposed
ideas is the Growth Management
Report, which will outline the
town’s growth patterns, describe
downtown development projects
and evaluate funding for bikeways
and greenways.
Council member Ed Harrison
said the town council can’t pre-
dict how the budget will look for
Chapel Hill due to the changing
state legislature and its own fund-
ing.
“We’re trying to get some idea of
what direction the state legislature
will go, but it will be hard to tell,”
he said.
Harrison said the N.C. League
of Municipalities, of which he is
a member, will keep towns like
Chapel Hill updated on what they
see as trends in the state budget
that could affect them.

that will alleviate the pressures put
on students like Waller when they
change their major.
In his first few months as chan-
cellor of NCSU, Randy Woodson is
trying to create a new, more effi-
cient process for students who wish
to change their major.
“He’s listened to students,
listened to faculty,” said Gerry
Luginbuhl, assistant director of
academic programs in the college
of agriculture and life sciences at
NCSU.
But Woodson does not have a
specific plan in place yet.
“I think it’s always a good
idea to look at our programs and
make things easier for students,”
Luginbuhl said.“I think he’s look-
ing for guidance at this point.”
Currently, students enter NCSU
already enrolled in a college. And
every major has its own curricu-
lum, she said.
“I think in the university, we try
to balance power and responsibil-
ity to try to get students through
until the second semester of their
sophomore year to finalize their
major, she said.
“Once you get here, I think a
lot of students discover new possi-
bilities, and I hope that’s what they
do,” Owen said.
UNC’s general college system
allows students to explore new
options for their majors, she said.
“Half the students who come in
want to major in biology,” Owen
said.
“Second semester sophomore
year, we know better about what
students are going to continue to
study.”
Gina Vaccaro, a junior at NCSU,
said the biggest problem arising
from changing majors is the credit
amount needed for each individual
major
“If they made classes more eas-
ily transferable, it would definitely
help a lot of people,” Vaccaro said.

Martinez chases dreams at North Carolina
by Aaron Taube
Assistant Sports Editor
North Carolina midfielder Enzo Martinez is what
his coach Elmar Bolowich likes to call “opportunis-
tic.”
Indeed, the sophomore has shown a penchant for
being in the right place at the right time this season
in nabbing his team-leading nine goals. And sure,
Martinez has done a fine job with the extra playing
time he’s been afforded by season-ending injuries to
a pair of All-ACC Tar Heels.
There’s more to it than converting scoring chances
in front of goal, though. After all, it was opportunity
that first lured Martinez and his family from their
native Uruguay 10 years ago, bringing Enzo first to
Rock Hill, S.C., then to Chapel Hill.
It’s been a long journey for UNC’s sophomore
sensation. But the thing about opportunity is this:
There are no promises along the way, only a hand-
shake agreement that with skill, determination and
a lucky bounce here and there, one just might wind
up where he belongs.
The long road to Chapel Hill
Martinez grew up without air conditioning or
carpeting in an impoverished area of Montevideo,
where he first came to love soccer. He and his
younger brother, Alex, went to school four hours a
day and spent the rest of their time playing pickup
with friends in the street.
The games ended when Martinez’ father was fired
from his factory job, no longer able to provide for his
three children in Uruguay. Instead, Enzo’s parents
chose to move the family to Rock Hill, a small city
located 35 minutes southwest of Charlotte.
“I think I’ve been blessed because I got to live 10
years there and see how tough it is, and then I came
here and I got to live very comfortably,” Martinez said.
“I guess I got the best of both worlds.”
But things weren’t always comfortable for Martinez
on this side of the equator. Not at first, anyway.
A 10-year-old a world away from home, he strug-
gled to adjust to eating new foods and speaking a
language he didn’t know. Like so many immigrants
who came to America before him, Martinez found
comfort on the nation’s playing fields. The 5-foot-7
dynamo blossomed into a scoring machine, netting a
preposterous 182 goals at Northwestern High School
and leading the Trojans to three state titles.
Along the way, Martinez’s English improved and
he became not just a member of the Rock Hill com-
munity but a local celebrity, signing autographs for
admirers and earning All-America recognition.
”When you start playing, it’s weird because you’re
not you, it’s like another person takes over,” he said.
“It’s the funnest time, all of your problems go away.”

The game also offers a different sort of escape for
Martinez. When he takes the field, he’s not playing
just for himself. He’s playing for his family, too, so that
one day his mother can stay home from her 12-hour
day at a warehouse and his father won’t have to wake
up early to install satellite dishes.
Every time he sprints after a loose ball in practice
or charges toward goal in a game, he does so with full
knowledge of the sacrifices made for him, not just by
his parents who have sweated out countless hours of
manual labor on his behalf, but also by the handful
of Rock Hill families who helped pay for his food and
lodging on travel soccer road trips, some of his cloth-
ing and his cell phone bill.
While it’s true no one becomes the leading goal-
scorer in South Carolina high school history with-
out talent, Martinez’ drive is what set him apart and
gave him the opportunity — there’s that word again
— to be the first member of his family to attend
college.
“Seeing my mom, my dad work and work — until
today, my mom has had 10 days off of vacation in
10 years, and I’ll be surprised if she did that much
because she works so hard,” Martinez said. “I think
that’s what makes me the way I am.”

Irving continues incredible journey Enzo

senior writer
Nate Irving is back.
Irving missed all of last season
with a one-car accident that left him
with a separated shoulder, a broken
rib and collapsed lung on his left
side, and a badly fractured left leg.
It was no sure thing that he
would live, let alone come back to
star on the gridiron.
But just 17 months later, he
finds himself leading the N.C. State
Wolfpack defense in tackles, tackles
for loss, sacks and quarterback hits,
as the Wolfpack are two wins from
the ACC Championship game.
Already with career highs in sacks
and tackles for a loss, Irving is just
seven tackles from setting another
career record in the category.
“It’s a testament to how hard he’s
worked,” North Carolina fullback
Curtis Byrd said.
Two years ago, Irving led the
team in interceptions, but the
accident has robbed him of some
of the speed needed to play in
coverage. But Irving is still a fear-

He makes plays in the backfield,
evident by his 18.5 tackles for loss.
That more than doubles his closest

The Daily Tar Heel
Lab!’s ‘Thom Pain’
engaging, complex
by TARIQ LUTHUN
staff writer
Thom Pain is a man who means
what he says. Deciphering that
meaning is entirely up to the
viewer.
Thursday night marked the open-
ing of the LAB! Theatre production
of “Thom Pain,” written by American
playwright Will Eno. Senior Zac
Moon played the role of Pain.
The one-man show held in room
203 of Bingham Hall, also known
as the Blackbox, saw Moon deliver
a strangely powerful performance.
The play began with the deliber-
ately small crowd of about 40 sit-
ting amongst darkness when Pain
walked in clad in dress attire.
Still in the darkness, Pain start-
ed the show by defining what he
deemed to be key terms with the
aid of a dictionary.
Foreshadowing prevalent themes
through the show, amongst these
definitions were the words ‘fear’ and
‘felicific’ — the latter meaning “to
cause or intend to cause happiness.”
Soon after, the stage was lit, allow-
ing the audience to finally see the
face of the man that would take them
on an intimate verbal journey.
From the outset, Pain was verbose
and rarely relented. In seemingly
contradictory fashion, Pain would
jump from topic to topic, defining
and redefining concepts, emotions,
past events and life in general.
Pain started with a sad, but dicey
story from his childhood, deliv-
ering it in a somewhat hysterical

issue of what’s best for first-semes-
ter freshmen,” said Perry, who ulti-
mately voted for the recommenda-
tion in spite of those reservations.
The committee did not pass
the second resolution because the
opinion wasn’t unanimous at its
Wednesday meeting, said Alston
Gardner, the committee’s chair-
man. He introduced the resolution
Thursday after obtaining unani-
mous support by explaining that a
deferral of rush would be too dis-
ruptive and would not be the silver
bullet for the Greek system.
“I guess it’s been clear that the
majority of the board wanted (no
deferred rush),” said Perry, the
board’s former chairman.
“I support the board. I’m a team
player.”
Committee members and campus
leaders said throughout the study

union activities.
During protests of their termi-
nations at Town Hall, Bigelow and
Clark, along with their supporters
from UE 150, UNC and the local
chapter of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, said the town denied them
of their right to due process during
their investigations.
Protestors also said the town
hired Capital Associated Industries,
a Raleigh based non-profit employ-
ers association that contracted with
Chapel Hill for up to $60,000 of
services, to “union bust.”
President and CEO of the firm
Bruce Clarke said that name is
nothing new to his company.
“Because we primarily serve
management, unions will often
claim we’re union busters,” he said.

manner. From then on, he contin-
ued bouncing around topics from
relationships to self-perceptions,
lessons about love to his thoughts
of audience members.
The program for the produc-
tion claims the show is a process,
one that hinges on the “dialogue”
between Pain and the viewer.
Throughout the play, Pain
engaged the audience, and though
the verbal responses were sparse,
the audience seemed to be moved
to an extent.
The script called for Pain to
uphold a certain social awkward-
ness, but in a relatable fashion. At
times Pain exacted laughter from
the crowd, and at other times sent
the viewer into contemplation of
his or her own life values.
The setting and seating arrange-
ments were a perfect medium for
Moon to deliver his character. The
limited crowd allowed for Moon to
speak in more of a conversational
tone, as opposed to what could have
easily defaulted into a lecture.
Though it featured a monumen-
tally skillful performance from
Moon, the show didn’t go much
further than that.
While not boring, the perfor-
mance does get a bit slow at times
that they believed the adjustment
to college life should be considered,
and that spring recruitment would
allow students more time to look
for more opportunities on campus
rather than immediately commit to
a Greek organization.
The resolution stated that the
standards that must be met must
focus on both academic performance
and social behavior.
Winston said academic behavior
will be judged primarily on grade
point averages, and that social
behavior will be incident-based.
Brent Macon, president of the
Interfraternity Council who was
elected Nov. 11, said he was excited
for the opportunity ahead.
“We’d love the chance to prove
ourselves,” he said.

it’s less than extraordinary.
But inside, the bright, busy art
work on the wall tells a different
story. Oguntoyinbo’s work adds to
this ambiance.
Oguntoyinbo feels that his art is
“too unusual” for more structured
spaces, he said.
He finds the gallery process sub-
jective, he said.
More than bypassing galleries,
the artist hopes to make the spaces
where his work is displayed a little
more intriguing.
“If it helps places look a little

Coal removal process protested
UNC o∞cials disagree with claims
by nicole comparato
staff writer
One-hundred pinwheels briefly
blanketed the ground outside South
Building on Tuesday, as members
of the Sierra Student Coalition
protested against the use of coal
extracted through mountaintop
removal.
Titled “Music Saves Mountains,”
the event was intended to increase
awareness of the controversial pro-
cess of extracting coal through musi-
cal performance and speakers.
After the pinwheels were placed
in Polk Place, about 15 members
of the group walked into the chan-
cellor’s office and submitted a let-
ter explaining the consequences
of mountaintop removal and the
potential alternatives.
The pinwheels that were placed
outside of the chancellor’s office are
now being shipped to Washington
D.C., where they will join anti-coal
pinwheels sent in across the coun-

Boss, co-chairman of the coalition
and organizer of the event.
He said that the group has
found data showing the University
has violated its policy regard-
ing the green initiative and is
causing major damage to moun-
tains, including those along the
Appalachian Mountain Range.
Boss said the University has
reneged promises not to use
mountaintop removal.
The University signed a new
3-year contract in the summer with
a coal company that requires the
company to disclose its production
processes.
“Students have to realize that
their university is not doing what
they say they are,” Boss said.
“My goal now is to encourage
the people of Appalachia and let
people know what’s going on”, he
added.

“Students have to realize that their
university is not doing what they say
they are.”
Stewart Boss, Co-Chairman of UNC sierra student coalition
University officials rejected the
premise of Boss’ claims, saying
the student coalition has inac-
curately grouped mountaintop
removal under the banner of sur-
face removal.
“The EPA definition of moun-
tain removal is that they destroy
the whole mountain,” said Susan
Houston, outreach editor for UNC
News.
“Our suppliers have told us that
they don’t use that technique,” she
added.
Emily Allan, a freshman mem-
ber of the group, said she was dis-
appointed that Thorp reneged on
his stated commitment against the
use of coal extracted from moun-
tain tops.

leyball in the Muggle world.
Jay Goss, another chaser for
the team and a member of UNC’s
varsity fencing team, described the
game as capture-the-flag meets
dodgeball, where players throw
the quaffle ball through three hula
hoops taped to poles that serve as
goals. Meanwhile, the seeker runs
after the golden snitch — played by
a non-affiliated student — to end
the game. That’s the part Harry
Potter plays in the books.
Goss said his toughest job is to
watch out for the opponent team’s
“beaters” who throw “bludgers” —
or deflated dodgeballs — at him to
make him return to the team’s base
before rejoining to the game.
“If you’re a pro, then you can
block the beater’s throw with the
quaffle and you can keep playing
without getting out,” he said.
A quaffle score counts for 10
points while a snitch capture only
counts for 30, as opposed to the
150 awarded in the magical world.
Each team has three chasers,
two beaters, one keeper and one
seeker.
The Old Well Wizards practice
every Monday and Thursday eve-
ning at the Lincoln Center because
there is not a campus field that fol-
lows the International Quidditch
Association’s dimensions rules for
a 48 yard by 33 yard pitch.
The association is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to promot-
ing the game of Quidditch and uti-
lizing the game to inspire young
people to get out of the library and
lead more physically active and
socially engaged lives.
Players have to run, throw, catch,
dodge and block — all while hold-
ing a broom between their legs. But
Goss said he likes to get creative.
“I like to use spin moves to
change direction quickly when I
have the quaffle and someone is
defending me,” Goss said. “It can
get you open shots pretty nicely.”
But he said it takes more than
studies
from page 1
and because of the circumstances
presented to him.”
Another comparative literature
PhD student, Jennifer Flaherty,
published a paper in 2008 in the
Washington and Jefferson College
Review about Harry Potter in
which she talked about knowledge,
control and freedom of information
in “Harry Potter and the Order of
the Phoenix,” the fifth book in the
series.
“Dumbledore keeps the
prophecy from Harry for most
of the book, and this clearly has
disastrous consequences during
the scene at the Department of
Mysteries,” she said.
Flaherty also established the
ironic relationship between the
censoring of knowledge and the
exponential growth of curiosity
that resulted from it.
When new Hogwarts profes-
sor Dolores Umbridge banned
information regarding the Defense
Against the Dark Arts, the students
of Hogwarts were driven to explore
the mechanics of it.
“The students developed an
underground system of knowl-
edge and ironically spent their
free time studying instead of
playing,” Flaherty said.

“ There’s some strategy, of
course,” he said.
For Monar, who plays Harry
Potter’s position, Quidditch means
more than just running after the

attacks.

this fall, Flaherty said she noticed
the deep connection and positive
impact the books have had on this
generation.
“Many students at UNC feel like
they grew up with Harry Potter,”
she said. “The books do a very good
job teaching students about good
and evil and all the things kids
need to learn about.”
In her religious studies course
“Heaven and Hell,” junior reli-
gious studies major Sakire Dogan
said she explored the concept of
afterlife in pop culture.
She asserted that Harry Potter
is a book premised on death and
the afterlife.
Though the use of witchcraft
and wizardry seems anti-Christian,
there are spiritual overtones in the
books, she said, noting it often goes
unnoticed since it’s not taken in a
very academic context.
“As I was reading the book for the
second time, things that wouldn’t
stand out to me as being related
to Christianity became apparent,”
said Dogan.
Her research states that J.K.
Rowling takes a lot of her ideas
for “Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows” from the philosophies of
Saint Thomas Aquinas and Saint
Augustine of Hippo.
“The part when Harry Potter
appears naked in limbo between
life and death in the last book

Augustine’s book, “City of God,” she
said.
Dogan also argued that the
books’ concept of the incorrupt-
ibility of the soul is one that reso-
nates with Saint Thomas’ philoso-
phy.
The pureness of the soul was
central to natural life. Since
Voldemort shattered his soul
several times, he corrupted his
soul and returned to the books in
an evil and savage state, Dogan
said.
Furthermore, she said, there are
a lot of examples of the duality of
the soul taken from the philoso-
phies of Plato and Aristotle.
“Rowling clearly defines the
body as separate from the soul
when Harry is ‘dead,’” she said.
“His body is damaged but his soul
isn’t.”
But there is seemingly little sep-
aration between many students’
experiences with Harry Potter
and their decisions later in life
to read the books in an academic
context.
“A lot of the beliefs that people
have are based on early encounters
they have with the books and arts
growing up,” Dogan said. “Harry
Potter has had a huge influence
on what we think and how we see
the world.”

The
immigrant
economy
F
resh off their victory in
the midterm elections this
month, Republicans in
Congress are prioritizing their
agenda for the 112th session. At the
top: jobs, debt, and the economy.
Meanwhile all signs of addressing
real and necessary immigration
reform are fading quickly. In light
of this, let’s take a look at how
immigration reform could aid in
growing the U.S. economy.
A new report, “Raising the Floor
for American Workers,” found that
legalizing undocumented workers
through comprehensive immigra-
tion reform would yield $1.5 tril-
lion to the U.S. Gross Domestic
Product over a 10 year period, gen-
erate billions in taxes and support
hundreds of thousands of jobs.
There are logical reasons for
this. When people shop at the
mall, we all benefit, regardless of
who those shoppers are. When
more people receive paychecks,
Uncle Sam collects more taxes.
When people are legally able to
attain a job, they will open bank
accounts, purchase homes, start
businesses and invest.
Some argue this increased con-
sumer power comes at the cost
of jobs that belong to citizens.
The opposite is true. Immigrants
arriving to work in America
frequently work low-skilled, low-
paying jobs that today are rapidly
moving overseas.
In the study “Immigration,
Offshoring and American Jobs,”
economists describe companies
moving offshore as competing
directly with immigrants within
our own borders for the same
low-wage jobs they are trying to
move abroad. The report found
that when “immigration is rising
as a share of employment in an
economic sector, offshoring tends
to fall, and vice versa.” Simply
put, immigrants are fighting
for low-paying jobs here, while
American businesses search for
cheaper labor elsewhere.
Meanwhile, legal or not, immi-
grants continue to pay into our
system of public benefits knowing
they may not qualify for them.
In 2005, the last time the figures
were available, the Social Security
Administration received $9 bil-
lion in tax revenue from people
with fake social security numbers.
According to the New York Times,
that was 10 percent of the surplus
in the system for that year.
Immigrants are also crucial to
North Carolina’s economy. Our
own Kenan-Flagler Business
School reported in 2006 that
Hispanics contributed more than
$9 billion to the state’s economy
through purchases, taxes and
labor. If all undocumented work-
ers left North Carolina, the state
would lose $14.5 billion in eco-
nomic activity and $6.4 billion
in gross product, according to a
study by the Perryman Group.
Still some elected officials see
mass deportation as the only solu-
tion to our growing immigration
dilemma. The Center for American
Progress has estimated that it
would cost up to $230 billion over
five years to deport these workers.
The CATO institute, a Libertarian
think tank, found that it would
reduce American household
income by $180 billion in 10 years.
Let’s face the facts: The
American business relies on the
immigrant worker, not just for the
cheap labor, but to fill the low-skill
jobs that American citizens don’t
want and that businesses won’t
hire them for. If this new Congress
really wants to remedy the econ-
omy, then it must address immi-
grant workers and the businesses
that benefit from exploiting them.
The bottom line: If you’re for
financial reform, you’ve got to be
for immigration reform.

Victory for transparency
Administrators’ openness was the perfect
response to Monty Cook’s despicable secrecy
O
ne wonders what was
going through Monty
Cook’s mind when he
pursued an amorous relation-
ship with a student, especially as
he took charge of a project fund-
ed by the largest grant in the his-
tory of the School of Journalism
and Mass Communication.
But the silver lining of this
ordeal is the transparency with
which administrative decision
making was carried out.
In the sunshine, the record
seems clear that the best inter-
ests of the institution were
upheld. Appropriately, it stands
in stark contrast to the secrecy
with which Cook himself acted.
There are several reasons
why what Cook did is wrong.

First, it violates a specific
University policy regarding
amorous relationships.
Second, it undermines the
professional and impartial
nature that should exist between
students and teachers.
Third — and by far the
most important — it is ethi-
cally abhorrent for a married
man with children to engage
in sexual communication with
a student he was advising who
herself is in a relationship.

was justified. She indicated to
Cook that she would push for

To begin with, the videos
are not easy to find. One of the
most logical places for students
to find updates is the Executive
Branch website. But as of now,
there are no links to its YouTube
channel from the Executive
Branch home page or multi-
media tab. A prominently vis-
ible link would be helpful.
Another suggestion is to
limit update videos to one
topic. The first nine-minute
update video covers tuition,
alcohol abuse, and legislative
lobbying plans. All of these
topics are relevant to students
but the jumbled format is more
confusing than it should be.

Finally, student leaders
should try to get more creative.
