UNCs No. 1 goal: Beat State


Withers slams NC State as UNC tries for its first rivalry win in four years.
By Mark Thompson
Senior Writer

In the days leading up to the North Carolina football teams matchup with North Carolina State, coach speak died on the radio. And both Everett Withers and Tom OBrien killed it. In an interview with 99.9 The Fan ESPN Radio on Wednesday just three days before UNC will try to beat N.C. State for the first

time in four years Withers said recruits in North Carolina need to know who the flagship school is. They need to know it academically, Withers said. If you look at our graduation rates opposed to our opponent this weeks graduation rates for football, I think youll see a difference. If you look at the educational environment here, I think youll see a difference. Thursday, OBrien fired back at Withers. As far as the flagship, here was a guy who was on a football staff that ends up in Indianapolis, OBrien said to a group of reporters. You have an agent on staff. You are paying players and you have academic

fraud. Thats a triple play as far as the NCAA is concerned. Those are hot words, even for coaches of rival schools. And that, among other things, is what makes Saturdays game between UNC (6-3, 2-3 ACC) and N.C. State (4-4, 1-3 ACC) possibly the most intriguing game between the two teams in recent years. In past years, former UNC head football coach Butch Davis treated the week leading up to UNCs game against N.C. State as any other, but Withers has taken a different route. Hes just emphasized a lot

AFAM investigation draws student ire

For some students, the attention on the African and Afro-American Studies department has come at a heavy cost. A small group of students stood in front of three administrators Thursday to protest the reckless and insensitive manner in which they say UNC has conducted its investigation into the department. We are being unfairly branded as exem-

plars of dishonesty, one student read from a prepared statement. Members of the group said they think the department is being used as a scapegoat for larger problems with academic integrity at the University. The Universitys investigation, which began in September, was launched following the revelation that former defensive end Michael McAdoo had largely plagiarized a paper for a class in the department and the plagiarism had not been detected by the honor system. Julius Nyangoro the professor in that class and then-chairman of the department resigned from his chair-

Halloween raises drinking concerns


A coalition calls for an end to Chapel Hills festivities to limit underage drinking.
By Jenny Surane
Staff Writer

see AFAM, Page 4

A local coalition concerned about heavy underage drinking at Chapel Hills Halloween celebration is proposing the town discontinue the event altogether.

In a press release sent out this week, the Coalition for Alcohol and Drug Free Teenagers of Chapel Hill and Carrboro suggested that the University consider funding and holding a Halloween event on campus ending the celebration on Franklin Street that drew a crowd of 27,000 this year. We see it as really nothing more than a drunkfest, and we feel that it promotes underage drinking in general, said Dale Pratt-Wilson, director of the coalition.

The town began the Homegrown Halloween initiative in 2008 after crowds of more than 80,000 congregated on Franklin Street in 2007 for Halloween prompting concerns about public safety and high law enforcement costs. The coalition was part of the community initiative calling for the change, Pratt-Wilson said. But she said she doesnt think the change has made enough of a dif-

e all remember suffering through the public school busing system, with its cost-cutting three kids to a seat policy and tyrannical drivers that made Mussolini look chill. It was enough to inspire rebellion, frankly. But this girl may have taken that idea just a touch too far An unidentified 9-year-old girl was just trying to get her snack on when a bus driver told her to stop eating candy on the bus. The girl responded by cursing at the driver, trying to fight other children and throwing pieces of asphalt at the bus. When police arrived, the girl began screaming F--k you! Shut the f--k up! I will f--king kill you! She then threw a chair and attempted to bite the officer. The girl is facing four felony charges. Power to the people.

istrators gave universities permission to consider higher increases if they could be justified. At Thursdays meeting, Cooper reiterated discouraging numbers from the Universitys budget. She cited that UNC has cut 556 course sections, totaling a loss of 16,232 classroom seats. UNC already has a $20 million hole in its budget, she said. If we raise in-state tuition 6.5 percent, we will have a net revenue of just $8.9 million, she said, adding that the number did not include money devoted to preserving financial aid. Administrators said last week they might be able to fill the budconclusions yet, Gil said, adding that a final report is expected by the end of the spring semester. Huber said when she first joined the department as the interim chairwoman, she found that the department lacked a community governance system. The department had been run very much as a one-person show, a one-man show in this case, Huber said. She said she installed an executive committee in the department, which has started to consider syllabi and the criteria for independent study courses.

get gap with the help of sources other than tuition. But Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Bruce Carney said tuition hikes would still be necessary in case outside funding falls through. Jared Simmons, chairman of the finance committee of Student Congress, said UNC needs tuition hikes in order to replace the things the University has had to eliminate due to budget cuts. If you dont retain faculty, then you will lose the value of your degree, Simmons said. Students dont think about this. Theyre just thinking about paying bills. Money from a tuition increase would primarily go to graduate tors and the department. Many faculty members in attendance said they were pleased with how Gil and her team have conducted the investigation and represented the department in the media. Andrew Reynolds, chairman of the global studies department, said as an outsider to the department, he felt Gil had represented the department well. I think its been very challenging to counter some of the negative perceptions, Reynolds said. He added that there is always room to improve communication about the investigation. After delivering their statement, the students asked Gil to student programs, faculty salaries, restoring lost credit hours and financial aid, Simmons said. He urged students to not think about whether to support tuition hikes, but to consider where the revenue should go. Lily Roberts, Coopers senior adviser, said students need to remember that any adjustment to tuition above the cap would occur over a multi-year period. Any increase would be broken up over several years, so we will not see a 40 percent increase over one year at any stage. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

Economic problems persist despite Greek austerity deal
WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT) While storm clouds in Greece appeared to lift Thursday with political compromise, the broader European Union still faces numerous threats as other struggling economies remain in danger. Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou appeared to have negotiated a political deal that won the opposition partys commitment to back a government austerity program that was key to a debt-relief accord reached with EU leaders last week. The deal was an important symbol that Europe was working through its problems, though with Greece accounting for only 3 percent of the European Union economy, its problems pose only a small threat. As was the case in the 2008 U.S. financial crisis, investors quickly identify who they think is the next weak link, and in Europe thats Italy. It faces enormous financing needs and its embattled prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, is fighting for political survival. Italy is in the crosshairs because Berlusconi has failed to deliver on promised economic reforms. Italy also has debts of about $2.6 trillion. The ratio of Italys debt to its overall economy is around 120 percent. That debt ratio is what European leaders are trying to bring Greece down to by 2020, and it underscores how Italy and Greece face similar challenges.

The Visualizing Human Rights Anti-Conference isnt a stuffy meeting with professors, politicians, data and charts. Its an all-day event using performance, multimedia and art to tell the stories of people fighting for human rights around the world. The event will be held Saturday in the FedEx Global Education Center by the Center for Global Initiatives. It doesnt just portray these critical issues in terms of facts and figures, said Bevin Tighe, a program assistant with the center and a main organizer for the event. One of the days programs will be an interview with Rida Mazagri, a Libyan-American and a former political prisoner under the late Libyan ruler Moammar Gadhafi. Other events include a participatory art project and a West African music and dance performance. Rather than really have one single issue seen for the year, we really like to have a mix, as people are connected with different

issues and interested in studying things that impact different locations, Tighe said. Senior Amanda Newton will lead a human trafficking discussion and show part of her honors thesis. Her thesis is a documentary film about Stellas House, a home in Moldova created for girls forced to leave state-run orphanages when they turn 16, many of whom are sold into the sex trade. I was just really curious to interact with these girls who have had completely different experiences than me as an American average girl, and just be able to see what theyve gone through, Newton said. The only difference between me and them is the fact that they were born in a country on the different side of the world. Senior Will McInerney, co-director of spoken word group Sacrificial Poets, will perform with Poetic

Portraits of a Revolution, an organization that sent him and several other poets to Egypt and Tunisia. While there, the team also took pictures and video depicting the countries transformations. We wanted to witness what was going on firsthand and to help bring that information back to our own communities, McInerney said. I hope the people who hear our performance walk away with a better and more realistic perspective one that focuses on the people and their stories, not just politicians and statistics. Tighe said she hopes the event inspires students to create their own projects involving human rights issues, especially since the Center for Global Initiatives offers grants for such projects conducted at UNC and abroad. Were hoping that it raises awareness around human rights issues in a way that also provides a way for people to be uplifted, not just downtrodden by the reality of some of these issues, she said.

Kvetches that dont make the final cut are often too long, too serious or grammatically incorrect, she said, adding that she rarely discriminates based on content or profanity. We dont want too much censorship, Bost said. Sometimes Im embarrassed to show it to my parents.

Producers, consumers connected


By Cheney Gardner
Staff Writer

Though only two weeks old, the Piedmont Food and Agricultural Processing Center has already caught the attention of local farmers and food entrepreneurs. Six clients are currently using the facility to manufacture, Facility Manager Matthew Roybal said, and up to 22 have been approved to come in when theyre ready. Roybal said he expects to have between 32 and 40 clients producing in the facility by 2012. The center creates a venue for small entrepreneurs to grow their business and promote local agriculture. Its inauguration was originally scheduled for the spring, but construction delays pushed it back to late October. The opening started off with a series of speeches given by local politicians and business people, including Noah Ranells, the Orange County agricultural economic development coordinator, and Dina Mills, owner of LunaPops, a business using the center. The speeches were followed by a potato cutting, instead of ribbon, and an open house where attendants tried samples from eight businesses involved in the initiative. Since the opening, clients have lined up to take advantage of a more cost-efficient way to package and sell their products. Our goal is to help these businesses to be sustainable and successful, Roybal said. Jonathan Mills and his wife Dina run Wilmington-based LunaPops, which markets its all-

natural Popsicles in Chapel Hill and throughout North Carolina. Mills said the center is a great opportunity for their business. Before the center opened, the Mills had been using a kitchen in the back of their store. Now they are using a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen at a much smaller cost. There is a huge up-front capital cost with a small business, Jonathan Mills said. Because of this center, we are able to grow much bigger and much faster without as much risk. Starting this month, the center will also provide information sessions for clients. Classes will cover accounting, business structure and legal concepts, and distributors and professional chefs will come in to help, Roybal said. For Orange County Commissioner Barry Jacobs, the project hits close to home. I used to be a farmer long before there were any farmers markets or anybody talked about organic foods or local food economies, he said. I tried to raise food to sell and found out firsthand how difficult it was unless there were receptive markets. Connecting local producers

with local consumers in Orange County is a process a decade in the making, Jacobs said. This is a key component in making that happen. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.

For many students, the weekly, vegetarian Hare Krishna meal in McCorkle Place represents a free dinner. But for others, it is much more. Every Thursday from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., hundreds of UNC students line up for rice, curry, beans and cream of wheat, served by members of the New Goloka temple in Hillsborough. Sophomore Josh Sydes was one of those students last year. He began asking members of the temple questions about their beliefs, and soon, he was volunteering himself. If I hadnt gone to the dinner and a couple other events, I would not have known what it was, and it has changed my life dramatically in a positive way. Sydes said he now studies the Bhagavad Gita which is the primary text of the practice. Jagadguru das, an organizer of the dinner, said more students have told him this year that they have begun meditating as a result of the dinners. People like you very much when you distribute free food, he said. But the food is spiritual. Hare Krishna is a spiritual practice that originated in India. Followers believe chanting connects them to Krishna, or God. Members of the temple serve

dth/logan savage Members of the New Goloka temple in Hillsborough serve a free vegetarian meal to students on McCorkle Place every Thursday at 5:30 p.m.

an estimated 300 students each week, das said. He said the people who prepare the food dont taste it, and cook with the idea that it will be enjoyed by Krishna. By sharing food, we can begin to share ideas and dialogue and make available to them this spiritual knowledge from the ancient cultures of the East, das said. Anadi Krishna dasa, another organizer and server, said members hope students will use the food as an opportunity to find out about the Hare Krishna beliefs, which he said will make students happy. Everybody knows that most students are more stressed out than you can imagine, but the way of Krishna consciousness is full of

bliss, and with this food hopefully theyll get an opportunity to experience what Krishna consciousness means, dasa said. Senior Stephen Bisher said he has been coming to the dinners for a year and a half. Its like having an alternate Lenoir experience, like Lenoir outside essentially, he said. Graduate student Laura Benton said the dinners are a great way to do outreach. Its a great way to talk about their religion and the principles they hold, Benton said. Clearly, they believe in hospitality and giving, and its a beautiful thing. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

The pressure to win, win, win, puts way too much pressure on those students that are expected to maintain good grades, and win at all costs. The situation is truly pathetic.
R laVarre, on Wednesdays Campus Y forum about UNCs emphasis on sports

Four choices, three years later


hree years ago today, the crowd in Top of the Hill suddenly exited the bar and took to the street en masse. On television, Barack Hussein Obama had just been named the next president of the United States. The Young Democrats and other groups of students that gathered to watch the election results decided to celebrate as though Obama had just hit the winning shot of the NCAA championship. Those dancing in the middle of Franklin Street had to clear the road for cars every few minutes, only to return a second later. Today, more people are sleeping and protesting in the streets than dancing in them. President Obamas approval rating have hit all-time lows during the past two months. His potential competitors in next years presidential election arent inspiring much confidence, either. The line-up of GOP candidates looks more like the cast of a reality TV show, which is exactly how theyre being covered by the mass media. Out of frustration and disappointment, heres four people I think would make better presidential candidates than the ones we have now: Kevin M. Murphy The Occupy Wall Street movement should pay attention to this economics professor at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. His work focuses on unemployment and growing income inequality between white-collar and bluecollar workers. Murphys work also includes a cost-benefit analysis of the war in Iraq. Geoffrey Canada Canadas interest in education and his strong leadership abilities have placed him in the roles of CEO and president of the Harlem Childrens Zone and a member of the Board of Directors of The After-School Corporation. Politicians have replicated some of Canadas most successful practices, but he seems to be content working with, not for, the government, reportedly turning down an offer from Mayor Michael Bloomberg to become New York City Schools Chancellor. Glenn Greenwald The lawyer-turned-columnist can best be summed up as fearless. His work has won him awards for independent and online journalism. A consistent critic of both Republicans and Democrats in Washington, Greenwald shows a strong impulse for challenging conventional wisdom and official propaganda. He believes true political change can only come from outside the current twoparty system. Recent pieces by Greenwald on the Occupy Wall Street protests show his ability to articulate the importance and core meaning of a movement when no one else whether activist or journalist can come close. David Eagleman As a neuroscientist studying concepts such as time perception and synesthesia, Eagleman sounds like he should be working in a windowless science lab, not the Oval Office. But he has a charismatic personality that makes him conceivable as the next leader of the free world, evidenced by an energetic appearance on The Colbert Report and attempted career at stand-up comedy. Eaglemans work has value outside the laboratory, too: He is a pioneer of neurolaw, which looks at how brain science should influence legal and social issues.

STVs latest drama

EDiTOriAl

The Student Union must compensate STV for lost studio space.

t bare minimum, the Student Union owes Student Television an apology for splitting its space in the multipurpose room. But thats not all STV deserves. After sinking $30,000 into transforming the room into a functional studio, only to have its space reduced by 65 percent, STV now has to rethink its future. One way or another, the Union must pay STV back for a move that deprived the group not only of studio space but of a voice in the decision, as well. In defending the Carolina Union Board of Directors unanimous vote this week, Union Director Don Luse said the marketing and design department required a larger office space because of ballooning demand for promo-

tional materials like banners and fliers. This demand from student organizations, the Division of Student Affairs and the Union itself grew from 53 projects in 2008-09 to 243 in 2009-10, or by 358 percent. The move isnt the marketing and design departments first choice, either. Under phase two of the UCommons renovation, it would have received a new office but the referendum failed in no small part to its poorly received campaign. That irony comes a close second to the miscommunication that led up to the Union boards vote. STV station manager Sydney Holt said she was told of the Unions plans only offhandedly in August, weeks after the Union decided on the multipurpose room as the best option. Luse said he notified STV of the Unions plans at the beginning of the summer, adding that the station never informed him of how it would

be spending the $30,000. Regardless of what, when or whether both sides communicated, its clear that coordination was lacking. Had STV been notified sooner, Holt said she would have been willing to give up the stations separate office and have one functional space rather than two half-usable spaces. That separate office may not have sufficed. But it could have at least opened a dialogue before it was too late. Holt said the renovations are rendered useless by the Union boards decision. Now, STV has to start over with a renovation that could be more expensive. No matter the final expense, the smaller space wont be wide enough for highdefinition broadcasting. The damage has been done from this vote. STV and the Union should take a lesson from it. Its time for them to communicate and achieve some measure of damage control.

ASGs task force must find a better leader


TO THE EDITOR: Quick everyone, look busy! Thats the notion behind Association of Student Governments new task force, and its embarrassing that The Daily Tar Heel has fallen for it. Thursdays editorial claimed that ASG has been ineffective for years, but the reality is that it was doing just fine until current president Atul Bhula took over in 2010. In fact, in the two years before he assumed office, ASG set 40-year attendance records, lowered stipends and successfully fought tuition hikes, saving students millions of dollars across the UNC system. The problem is vision. If the groups leader doesnt have one, ASG will fall flat on its face, year after year. However, it could still be useful. Mary Cooper and other members of the task force should fix the problem once and for all. They need to create a system that finds better leaders and gives them more time to devote to representing students. Set up the top job like a fellowship for graduates, and make the position more competitive. Collaboration between UNC-system schools has vast potential, and ASGs seat on the Board of Governors is an invaluable resource to students that should not be neglected because of petty politics. I urge Mary Cooper and the task force at large to rise to the occasion on the behalf of students at UNC and across the state. Kevin Kimball Junior Political Science

A space 4 students
f UNC wishes to develop the next generation of entrepreneurs, it must do more to provide students with opportunities to develop management skills. Student-run stores provide that opportunity and have already been proven to work at UNC and other schools. With some of UNCs most successful alumni on campus today to discuss the future of the Innovate@Carolina initiative, there is no better time for

To innovate, UNC should do more to encourage student-run businesses.

students, faculty and alumni to begin considering ways to provide students with real management experience. UNC has no shortage of student ideas, but its execution that separates ideas from innovation. Finding students with executive and management experience is a real challenge. To become a leading innovator, UNC must provide its students a chance to gain those skills. Last year, two UNC seniors did the impossible when they opened 4, a socially focused clothing and accessories store on Franklin Street, for an independent study course. While

successful, 4 was closed after the founders graduation. Beyond UNC, at Georgetown University, students operate a variety of businesses that employ more than 250 students from coffee shops to a full-service credit union. While programs like the entrepreneurship minor and Launching the Venture provide a foundation for idea and venture development, they do not allow students to practice getting their hands dirty. For that, students need to work it, live it, grow it, own it. Student-run businesses provide that opportunity.

11/7: Columnist Perry Tsai looks at the HPV vaccine, which was recently recommended for pre-teen boys.

irst and foremost, I want to be clear: my goal is to hear from the student body so that I can be the best advocate that I can be. At the end of the day, despite all of the other tasks that I do, my job is to represent the student voice, and that is exactly what Im going to do. This is a unique year. Our budget lost $100.7 million this year, bringing our total cuts in the last four years to more than $300 million. In the past, weve been able to cut non-academic parts of the University, but now weve lost 500 course sections. Thats 16,000 seats gone at best, students sit on the floor in overcrowded classrooms, and at worst, it will take them extra time to graduate. Our faculty went a fourth year without an increase in salary. These drastic cuts have left the University administration wondering how to ensure that a UNC degree is meaningful anywhere in this world. But before anyone decides what to do, I need to hear from you. As one of 13 members of the Board of Trustees, I have a vote on the tuition proposal. Before I

vote, I need to know what matters most to you. Were emailing student organizations to see if they would be interested in having a member of the executive branch team give a presentation on the budget and tuition. Were having five public forums one each night between Monday and Nov. 11. No policy has been set in stone for next year, and up until the moment that it has, student governments number-one priority is to garner your feedback. Moreover, a college education has never been more important, and UNCs challenge to make college affordable is part of a nation-

al conversation. In a New York Times column on Monday, David Brooks wrote, Over the past several decades, the economic benefits of education have steadily risen. In 1979, the average college graduate made 38 percent more than the average high school graduate, according to the Fed chairman, Ben Bernanke. Now the average college graduate makes more than 75 percent more. Education is essential and ensuring that there is access to higher education is a priority. Thats where the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid comes in. Our dedication to covering the needs of students regardless of tuition increases has been and will continue to be essential. Ultimately, no decision has been made. Take a minute to let me know what you think. Email your thoughts to unctuition@ gmail.com about the cost to students if there is an increase. This is a pivotal moment in the Universitys history, and the decisions made over the next few weeks will define the future. Make your voice heard.
