Board of Governors chair Fennebresque steps down

The embattled leader

John Fennebresque confirmed

what many had assumed: The UNC
systems Board of Governors is headed for a drastic change in leadership.

since 2014, on Monday announced

his immediate resignation from the
governing body. The decision comes
after the selection of the systems
new president, Margaret Spellings,
and 10 months of tension following
Fennebresques push to oust current
UNC-system President Tom Ross in
January.
I am delighted we could bring
in a nationally proven and accomplished leader to serve as the next
President of this great University
system, Fennebresque said in a
press release. Significant challenges

lie ahead for the system as it continues to provide the unparalleled education our students deserve.
Several board members called last
week for Fennebresques resignation,
citing the lack of transparency in the
search for the systems new president.
Accordingly, Fennebresques decision
to resign was met with little surprise
from fellow board members.
He had let us know, so it wasnt a
surprise for us, said board member
Marty Kotis, who has filed an official
complaint against Fennebresque.
Kotis echoed statements made

by other board members with

post-announcement praise of
Fennebresques leadership.
I think in this action, hes putting
the University first, and everyone on
the board appreciates that, Kotis said.
Ross, who has said he will stay on
as system president until January,
said Fennebresque was a dedicated
leader.
While John Fennebresque and
I may have had our differences at
times, he truly loves the University

Home football games limit

bike parking at Genome
Science Building.
By Deborah Harris
Senior Writer

Dont park your bicycle in front

of the Genome Science Building on
football game days it could be
impounded, according to official signs
posted on the bike rack.
Biology professor Mark Peifer
was walking by his lab Friday when
he found a sign banning bicycles for
the home football game against the
University of Virginia. The sign said
bicycles are banned from the location
Friday evenings and Saturdays on
football gameday weekends.
Peifer posted a picture of the sign
on his Facebook page for his research
lab, which is just behind the Genome
Science Building in Fordham Hall.
The post gained over 60,000 views
and several complaints from faculty,
students and employees. Peifer said the
matter is more symbolic than anything,
and its sending the wrong message.
Whats more important on campus?
And why are you here? Peifer said.
Some people are saying there are other
bike racks that are further away from
the building, and its not like they are
banning bike parking on campus. But
really this is a research and academic
building, not a football building.
The football program hosts six to
seven home football games during
the school year. Over those weekends,
parking on campus is constrained
and buses are limited. Interim Faculty
Chairperson Peter Mucha said this is
a problem for those who need to work
outside of business hours.
Scientific research doesnt adhere
to a nice nine-to-five weekday schedule
obviously, so understandably people
are concerned and frustrated that their
options are reduced, Mucha said.
Peifer contacted different UNC officials and encouraged people to email

Senior Alma Islas, an undocumented student, moved from Mexico City to Pikeville, N.C., when she was 6 years old. She pays out-of-state tuition at UNC.

Noncitizen students face federal, local nancial aid shortage

By Sofia Edelman
Senior Writer

Senior Alma Islas and her family pay taxes taxes that are then
funneled into federal student
financial aid funds. But because
Islas is not a documented citizen,
she will never see that money.
Even though Islas has lived
in North Carolina since she was
6 years old, she has had to pay
$50,000 a year to attend UNC as
an out-of-state student without the
help of federal money.
Eric Johnson, spokesperson
for the Office of Scholarships and
Student Aid, said his office can
only help pay for undocumented
students when they find nonrestricted private money.
As you know, we are very limited on what we are doing because
of the politics around this and
because (undocumented students)
are treated as out-of-state students
who are not eligible for state or

federal aid, Johnson said.

We get questions about it every
year, and its heartbreaking. And
for the most part, were in the
agonizing position of having to tell
them no.
Director of Scholarships and
Student Aid Shirley Ort said she
could likely count on one hand the
number of undocumented students
her office has funded in the last
decade, and theyre doing very well.
One is in medical school. I know
another is currently working, hoping to go to law school. She cant get
loans to pay for it, Ort said.
For undocumented students
who cant afford college on their
own, one option is to apply for a
private scholarship like the Golden
Door scholarship, which is based in
Fort Mill, S.C.
Executive director of Golden
Door Scholars Kacey Grantham
said that this year, the organization
will give out about 50 scholarships
to undocumented students. The

deadline for the scholarship application is midnight tonight.

We have previously done students from North Carolina and
South Carolina, and were expanding a bit for students from all states
where they dont have tuition
equity, Grantham said.
The Golden Door scholarship
only accepts students who are
included in the Deferred Action
for Childhood Arrivals act passed
by President Barack Obama in
2012 or who have been otherwise
temporarily protected from deportation.
Grantham said the scholarship only accepts these students
because they then set them up with
employers who hire DACA individuals.
We actually have six students
about to graduate this year, and
one of the challenges this year
is that some companies are very
DACA-friendly and some dont
understand that they can employ

these students, Grantham said.

When DACA was passed, Islas
said she was told she would receive
financial aid, so she signed a lease
for an apartment in Chapel Hill
and planned on attending UNC the
following fall. Only weeks before
her planned move-in, she was told
her financial aid fell through.
Islas was living in Chapel Hill
unable to attend classes when a
professor from her community
college told her about the Golden
Door scholarship, which she successfully applied for.
Islas, who moved from Mexico
City to Pikeville, N.C., when she
was 6 years old, did not share her
immigration status with people in
her hometown. Once she came to
UNC, she said she felt more comfortable sharing her status.
I was just concerned about
being treated differently, she said.
Even now, Im a senior, and Im

Computer science majors outpace departments budget, faculty

By Wei Zhou
Senior Writer

The computer science

department at UNC is using
one of the largest classrooms
on campus, but students still
complain they cant get into
classes they need.
The number of computer
science majors at UNC has
increased fivefold since 2010.
In fall 2010, the department
had 158 undergraduate students. Now, it has 812.
Since fall 2014 alone, computer science major enrollment has increased by more
than 250.
As student enrollment skyrockets, the department faces
unprecedented difficulties as
it tries to accommodate the
growing demand for course
offerings, especially for

introductory-level courses.

Computer science majors increase fivefold

Lacking faculty

Since fall 2010, the number of students majoring in computer science has increased by
more than 400 percent, but the departments faculty and budget have stagnated.

Department Chairperson
Kevin Jeffay said the faculty
size has been roughly constant since 2002, despite the
increase in computer science
majors.
All the faculty are fully
teaching. In fact, we actually
have distinguished professors
teaching extra classes. Thats
how bad things are, Jeffay
said. And we still dont have
enough faculty to cover all of
our classes.
He said Introduction to
Scientific Programming,
which serves as a requirement for majors like math
and mathematical decision
sciences, is supposed to be
offered every semester. But it
is not offered this fall because
the department does not have
enough faculty.
I think that the situation
is all right for upper-level students, but I know that it has

been really hard for entrylevel or underclassmen to get

into the intro courses, specifically (Computer Science) 110
and 116, junior computer science major Nancy Gao said.
Gao said since some introductory classes are either
required or are elective classes for other science or math
majors, students are having a
hard time.
Sophomore computer science major Illirik Smirnov
said he thinks the lack of fac-

ulty limits the departments

ability to offer more sections.
I think the one major
issue would definitely be
funding, because the department doesnt really have the
access to instructor capacity
to be able to have more highquality sections, Smirnov
said.
The size of computer
science classes, junior computer science major Marina
Kashgarian said, also limits
students abilities to interact

with professors.
Kashgarian said the smallest computer science class she
has taken had 60 students
and usually her classes have
200 students. She said she
cannot establish personal
relationships with her computer science professors like
she can in other departments.
With my computer science classes, I dont know any
of my professors which is
unfortunate, she said.

Budget constraints
Jeffay said the department
budget currently is about half
a million dollars. He said it
was almost unchanged for
more than 10 years until a
moderate 15 percent increase
in 2014.
The problem really is that
the budget lacks growth, so
things grow, and we have to
scramble to get more money,
Jeffay said. Eventually you
get more, but meanwhile
youve got even more growth.

This is a new year. A new beginning. And things will change.

TAYLOR SWIFT

He said the budget

increase cannot accommodate the rising student
enrollment.
Yes, you give me money
last year, but look, I have 200
more majors, Jeffay said.
What am I supposed to do
with that?
Gary Bishop, the departments associate chairperson
for academic affairs, said the
department has difficulties
hiring graduate students as
teaching assistants because
oftentimes they have better
opportunities to do research
and summer internships.
Bishop said the limited
budget affects every area of
the department, from lowerlevel classes to the graduate
program.
Back in the day, we used
to have teaching assistants
for graduate courses, he said.
We dont anymore.
Smirnov, the sophomore
computer science major,

Dorms start
Halloween
guest policy

Tuesday, October 27, 2015

LIL FANS GET LIL RAM

Students must register their guests

if they are staying this weekend.
By Sarah Watson
Staff Writer

Because of the number of visitors to campus

on Halloween weekend, UNC residence halls are
seeking to increase safety precautions by requiring students to register their guests.
Lt. Josh Mecimore, spokesperson for the
Chapel Hill Police Department, said Franklin
Street is one of the biggest concerns for the
department on Halloween.
One big concern is the size of the crowd and if
something dangerous happens, such as a crowd
rush, which is a risk of injury to bystanders and
officers, Mecimore said.
Mecimore said the annual influx of people
causes additional safety concerns.
Thirty thousand was the crowd size estimated
at last year. Certainly, the University has had
some issues with lots of guests in dormitories last
year, so I know theyre taking steps to trying to
handle those issues, he said.
Associate Director of Housing Rick Bradley
said he hopes this policy will improve student
and guest safety. He said the rule has become
standard practice at large universities.
This is actually the first year weve utilized the
guest policy specifically for Halloween, Bradley
said. We frequently run into intoxicated individuals and those without identification, and we
have found it difficult to link them to a UNC student, so we want to do it so we find someone to
link them to if they need assistance.
In addition to the newly established guest registration policy, residence halls take steps every
year to ensure the buildings are secure.
One rule is that we do lock exterior doors and
only have one primary door that students enter
through, Bradley said. Thats probably the only
significant change from our normal operation.
Residence Hall Association President Taylor
Bates said he is confident this simple, straightforward process will make Halloween a better time
for everyone.
Its really just to help RAs do their job effectively. This will just allow them to have an idea
about whos in their hall and to keep people safe,
he said.
He said many students are unaware of the policy.
Most students should be notified about it from
their RA or community director, Bates said. I dont
think its very well known right now, but hopefully it
will become more known closer to Halloween.
With the Halloween weekend quickly
approaching, students are asked to remain conscious of the activities they choose to partake in.
I encourage residents to make good choices
over Halloween, Bates said. Each residence hall
is having an alternative Halloween activity, so we
encourage residents to take advantage of these
activities.

Rameses and Rameses Jr. sit on the floor of the Smith Center after the new mascots official debut at Late Night with Roy on Oct. 23.

Rameses Jr. is young Tar Heels newest, wooliest pal

By Anna Freeman
Staff Writer

UNC students and community members who attended Late Night with Roy in
the Smith Center Friday were treated to
an introduction to UNCs newest mascot:
Rameses Jr. RJ sported blue eyes and horns
in a familiar Pantone #278 that distinguished him from his more senior counterpart, Rameses.
Brown Walters, director of spirit programs, said the idea of Rameses Jr. was
about a year in the making.
We noticed Rameses is so in demand, and
hes always so desired at games and things
like that, that we wanted to reach out to more
of the Carolina community, Walters said.
Walters said the spirit committee
sought to find a way to alleviate the
demand and simultaneously get involved
with more of the Carolina fan base. They
were also interested in increasing the
appeal of Rameses to small children, who
often found the full costume too intimidating and a little scary, he said.
When we designed RJ, the concept was

to try and be receptive to children, Walters

said. Youll notice its got blue horns; its got
blue eyes; its less muscular; it wears Jordan
brand shoes. Its really to try and reach out
to the kids.
Walters said two more students were taken
on as mascots to cover the addition. He said
the training for both mascots is the same.
Laura Fellwock, co-chairperson of
Carolina Fever, said Carolina Fever is giddy
with the prospect of including more Fever
kids in the fold with RJ.
By bringing in Rameses Jr., it kind
of builds up better connection with the
Carolina Kids Club, Fellwock said.
When theyre coming to Fever events,
when theyre coming to just Carolina
events in general and theyre 8, 10, 12
whatever they may be, we want somebody
like Rameses Jr. for them to be able to
identify with.
She said she thinks RJ is a way to get
future UNC students even more deeply
involved with the culture of Carolina and its
spirit programs.
When (the kids) become Carolina students and they want to join Fever they have

that bond with Carolina athletics that makes

it so much easier for them to get invested
in that world, so we think its a great idea,
Fellwock said.
RJ is not alone in being one of multiple
mascots for a single school. Many other
colleges have employed multiple mascots
to extend the reach of their spirit programs and spread school pride, said Scott
Palanjian, assistant director of marketing
for UNCs athletic department.
We saw it around the country at various
schools, say Clemson or Kentucky where
they have multiple mascots. We thought it
was an opportunity for us to do something
similar to what some other schools had
already done, Palanjian said.
RJ is a friendlier, more childlike counterpart to his older fellow Tar Heel Rameses.
Walters said hes designed to lighten his
load around the community while spreading
UNC spirit to youths.
The primary reason to have RJ come
into the fold was to help broaden our community outreach, Walters said.

Voter ID lawsuit hearing tentatively set for January

Claims state the laws
disproportionately
affect minorities.
By Lobke van Meijel
Staff Writer

A federal judge refused to

dismiss challenges to North
Carolinas Voter ID law during a court hearing on Friday,
and set a new tentative hearing for Jan. 16.
The N.C. General Assembly
passed the law two years ago,
requiring voters to have photo
ID when voting in-person.
It would go into effect in

2016, possibly influencing

the upcoming presidential
primaries.
After the law passed, the
N.C. NAACP and the Southern
Coalition for Social Justice
filed claims that it would disproportionately affect AfricanAmerican and Latino voters in
the state.
In response, the state
offered reasonable impediment exceptions that exempt
voters from having to show
photo IDs. These exceptions
include instances of stolen ID
or lack of transportation.
The trial focused on
whether these exemptions
rendered the challenges moot.

The court agreed with

us that there are still issues
and that we should have an
opportunity to present those
in court, said Irving Joyner,
a member of the legal council
for the N.C. NAACP and a
law professor at N.C. Central
University.
Denise Lieberman,
senior attorney with the
Advancement Project and part
of the litigation team challenging the photo ID trial, said
those groups disproportionally impacted including the
elderly face more challenges
in paying for, or presenting
supporting documents to
receive photo IDs.

The reasonable impediments exceptions addressed

some of those issues but not
all of them, Joyner said.
Legally nothing can
make the bill work, because
it is unconstitutional at its
inception.
Susan Myrick, an election
policy analyst at the rightleaning Civitas Institute,
opposes the reasonable
impediments exception too.
Everybody should be treated equally and the same. If
you require something of one
person, you should require the
very same thing for the next
person in line, Myrick said.
Proponents of the law claim

photo IDs prevent voter fraud,

but Lieberman said there was
no evidence of voter fraud and
the state never established the
existence of a legitimate harm
the provision will address.
What became abundantly
clear (during the trial) is that
there is not a legitimate government interest behind these
restrictive voting measures,
she said.
While opponents argue
there is no conclusive evidence
of fraud, Myrick said presenting tangible evidence is difficult without the photo ID
requirements in place.
We know theres voter
fraud, weve seen the voter

fraud in other states, North

Carolina is no different in
that, she said.
Myrick said one of the
most important processes
of Americas democracy
is diminished with every
instance of fraud.
Both parties have until
January to compile more
evidence, unless new developments render the case moot or
the state forfeits the bill.
I have watched this judge
work before and he is very
thorough, Myrick said. I
dont know how (the case is)
going to turn out.

The Chapel Hill-Carrboro

Chamber of Commerce will induct
seven business leaders into its Hall
of Fame on Nov. 5. The Daily Tar
Heel will profile each of these inductees. Stephen Edwards, founder of
Midway Barber Shop, is among
those to be inducted.
Lovelia Edwards, the widow of
Stephen Edwards, helped her late
husband start his business in the
late 1940s.
The businesses started in 1948,
and he carried on with it, and just
before he got sick, his son bought it
from him, she said.
His son is now running the
same business in the same shop
that he started.
Midway Barber Shop on
Rosemary Street has maintained
a strong relationship with its
customers, many of whom have
remained with the shop since its
early days, she said.

(The induction) means a little bit

of excitement and recognition for
something that he did while he was
alive, she said.
He always tried to serve the community the best he could.
Stephen Edwards and Lovelia
Edwards, a former beautician herself, raised three kids, all of whom
went on to be barbers.
Im glad they recognize him,
said Stepney Edwards, the son of
Stephen Edwards and current owner
of Midway.
I do think he was a serious entrepreneur, and he was a great father
as well.
Midway Barber Shop started
when Stephen Edwards left the
Army and used funds from the GI
Bill to go to barber school, Stepney
Edwards said.
He worked at another barbershop before getting some friends
together to help construct the
building that now houses Midway,
he added.
I always tell people if you havent
been to the Midway, you missed a
Chapel Hill experience, he said. Its
part of Chapel Hill, and its been
here longer than over 90 percent of
the businesses.
The Midway is not only a place to

get a haircut, but also a social hub

for its patrons, he said.
He was my life, basically, because
I grew up with him and worked
beside him every day, he said.
Working with family can be hard,
but he was one of my best friends.
Joshua Edwards, a Chapel Hill
resident and frequent patron, said he

Greenham has a math nerd romance

By Christine Bang
Staff Writer

What is the solution when

you add one mathematician
and one statistician together?
Greenham.
Linda Green, a lecturer
in mathematics, and Robin

Cunningham, a lecturer in
statistics and operations
research, have been married
for 25 years.
The nickname Greenham,
created by combining the
lecturers last names, was
inspired by Dr. Seusss book,
Green Eggs and Ham.

Award for best undergraduate mathematics major in

1990.
After graduating, she and
Cunningham got married in
her parents living room.
Together, theyve lived
in New Jersey, California
and North Carolina, and
have taught at high schools,
universities and colleges, including Princeton
University, Dominican
University of California and
Mills College.
They have taught both
together and separately.
Green and Cunningham
began teaching at UNC two
years ago in the fall semester
of 2013.
Although they have been
married for 25 years and
have three children together,
they said the majority of
their students are not aware
of their relationship because
they dont share the same last
name and dont work in the
same department.
Cunningham and Green
said they dont see each
other that much at work, but
it is nice when they can get
lunch together.
Were very lucky that we
both have jobs at UNC, but
I think the hardest part of
working in similar fields is
finding jobs that are geographically close to each
other, Green said.

I got most of my
homework in
graduate school
done on that train.
Robin Cunningham
Statistics and operations lecturer

Cunningham and Green

said they appreciate having
the same academic schedule
because their vacation times
align.
Sophomore Landon
Larabee said he had
Cunningham for two classes
his first year and even
house-sat for the couple last
summer.
The entire family seems
very well educated, which I
suspect comes from having
two professors as parents,
Larabee said.
Larabee said he is from
the small town of Ahoskie,
N.C., and that talking with
Cunningham at office hours
helped him adjust to life at
UNC.
Theyre both very invested
in their students, Larabee
said.
He said he asked
Cunningham why his wifes
last name is Green.
He said, She was famous
long before me.

She said she realized the

unable to pay for it because
she lacked access to federal

the most common ones.
Ive been told that undocumented citizens dont pay taxes,
and theyre like, You dont

of North Carolina and has

been a tireless, passionate
advocate for it, he said in a
statement.
Fennebresques fellow
board members were not
alone in applauding his decision to leave.
It clears the air, said
Ferrel Guillory, professor in
UNCs School of Media and
Journalism and director of
the Program on Public Life.
He was a lightning-rod figure, and with his resignation,
the controversy surrounding
him will fade.
Jenna Robinson, president
of the Pope Center for Higher
Education Policy, said in an
email Fennebresque made the
right decision.
The board has been very
divided throughout the
presidential search process,
she said. His leaving will
allow the board to come back
together and start fresh with
new leadership.
While the board might
benefit from a leadership
change, Guillory said, the current sense of uncertainty will
remain for some time.
Once a new chair is
named, theres a learning
curve for that person to establish a rapport and credibility
with the board, he said.
Even with its lightning rod
gone, the boards leadership
remains in flux.
Guillory questioned how
well President-elect Margaret
Spellings will fit into the picture come January.
Yes, it was a unanimous vote of approval, but
Fennebresques resignation
will surely have an impact on
her ability to lead the board,
he said.
Kotis acknowledged
Spellings selection was quick,
but said the process is separate
from the person.
You wont find anyone on
the board that doesnt support her leadership, he said.
Fennebresques departure
means that after a 30-day
period, Vice Chairperson
Louis Bissette will become
the temporary chair until a
permanent replacement can
be found.
Fennebresque will return
to the Charlotte law firm
McGuireWoods.

everybody needs computing

professionals in their business, he said.
Gao, the junior computer

want to learn programming
skills because there are so
many opportunities for
employment in the technology industry.
I think this is following
the trend that employment in
the tech industry is really hot
right now, she said. A couple

Why would anybody in

their right mind leave their
high-paying software engineering jobs to come and
teach for pennies? he said.

The department is offering

fewer upper-level and graduate courses so it can accommodate lower-level courses,
Jeffay said.
We are offering fewer
junior, senior courses and
fewer graduate courses, with
the hope that, you know,
the college will come to our
rescue and let us hire
additional faculty so that we
will be able to offer more,
he said.

The lack of upper-level

course offerings forces some
students to take courses elsewhere. Smirnov said he is
going to study abroad to take
upper-level classes not available at UNC.
I am going to study
abroad next semester because
there are some course offerings that are available, for
example in the National
University of Singapore, that
are not available here, he
said.
Jeffay said the department
needs to hire new faculty
members to teach additional
sections. Hiring adjunct professors is not a viable option,
he said, because people with
programming skills can earn
six-figure salaries outside the
world of academia.

associate athletic director for

external communications,
said the athletics department responded to Peifer and
directed him to Department
of Public Safety spokesperson
Randy Young.
Young said in an email that
Cheryl Stout, director of transportation and parking, invited
Peifer to discuss bike parking
at Genome on game days,
and showed that other bike

racks are still available around

the building. Young did not
explain why those bike racks
in particular were banned.
It is never the intention of
Transportation and Parking to
prevent access for important
work and events that are happening on campus that are not
associated with the games,
Young said in the email.
Peifer said he doesnt hate
UNC sports at all, but just

wishes people could park

their bikes wherever.
This isnt a giant crime,
but its just silly, Peifer said.
Its just embarrassing that
they would sign that kind of
message in such a ridiculous
way. Its not just like someones research is destroyed
because someone couldnt
park their bike.

Scholar, Peralta said she filled

out an online application,
completed a phone interview and then had eight to
10 round-robin interviews
in person each of which
lasted 15 to 20 minutes.
The Morehead-Cain scholarship is not available to students who arent documented,
said Charles Lovelace, executive director of the MoreheadCain Foundation.
Even though Lovelace said
the scholarships funding is
not federal, he said federal
and state policies barring
undocumented students from
receiving federal money are
the reason why his foundation chooses to do the same.
We are federally taxexempt, so we feel like we
have to comply with these
issues, Lovelace said. If the
University policy or state and
federal policies changed, we
would look at that. Absolutely,
its a real problem.
The Robertson Scholars
Leadership Program, another

full scholarship that partners

programs at Duke University
with UNC, does accept undocumented students, executive
director Allen Chan said.
UNC graduate Emilio
Vicente, who has lived in
North Carolina for 15 years,
was considered an international student when applying
to UNC. He now works at the
Southeast Immigrant Rights
Network and said a lot of
ignorance still surrounds the
topic of documentation status.
A big thing I always get
asked is, Why dont you apply
for papers? Why dont you
go to the end of the line?
Vicente said. The answers to
those questions are very complicated.
Sophomore Kristen
Gardner, a member of
Students United for
Immigrant Equality, said it
is important to recognize
undocumented students face
greater challenges in accessing higher education than
U.S. citizens do.

Not just the financial barriers, but the social stigma

and emotional and physical
stress that comes from feeling
the need to hide your identity
and feeling like you dont
belong in the community that
you grew up in your whole
life, Gardner said. I think its
administrations role to make
(UNC) feel like a welcoming
environment and be able to
recognize the unique needs
of these students and actively
work to see that these students are thriving.
Islas said undocumented
people feel just as American
as their documented counterparts and arent necessarily
criminals.
I always consistently get
slapped in the face with, Wait,
youre undocumented, so you
cant do this, you cant do that,
which feels horrible, because
I grew up with a whole lot of
other citizens that made me
feel like one, Islas said.

QB Marquise Williams rushes ahead

The fifth-year senior
has rushed for 476
yards this season.
By C Jackson Cowart
Assistant Sports Editor

Marquise Williams hasnt

forgotten the loss.
In the season opener against
South Carolina, the North
Carolina quarterback tossed
three red-zone interceptions to
lead to a 17-13 defeat.
But the redshirt senior
notched just nine yards on 10
carries against the Gamecocks
an inefficiency which tortures the quarterbacks mind.
Stuff like that still haunts
me, Williams said. But I knew
I had to move on and continue
to move forward.
For the dual-threat quarterback, the quickest way forward has been with his feet.
Williams has run rampant

through the Tar Heels sixgame winning streak, rushing for 77.8 yards per game
during the stretch. And in his
teams near-defeat against
Georgia Tech, the quarterback
accrued a career-high 148
yards on the ground to fuel a
historic 21-point comeback.
When everything is covered down, I have to be ready
to go, Williams said. I have
to be ready to move the chains
with my feet.
In UNCs 26-13 win
over Virginia on Saturday,
Williams picked up six first
downs on the ground and
totaled 71 yards rushing,
including an agile 31-yard
scamper up the middle
UNCs longest run of the
game to set up the Tar
Heels first scoring drive.
Hes always had spectacular legs, sophomore tailback
Elijah Hood said. You look
at his stats, you can tell the
guy can run.

Hes always had spectacular legs. You look

at his stats, you can tell the guy can run.
Elijah Hood
North Carolina sophomore tailback

Through the first seven

games of the season, the dualthreat quarterback is eighth in
the nation among signal-callers with 476 rushing yards.
Hes just excellent at reading holes; hes got good quickness, good speed, strong legs,
a good build Hood said.
It makes it real hard on the
defense to pick and choose
which guy they want to have
the ball.
After defeating the Yellow
Jackets in early October,
Williams admitted to reviewing film from the South
Carolina loss and recommitting
himself to the ground game.
For Coach Larry Fedora, the
improvement has been obvious
and his quarterbacks versa-

tility only makes the offense

that much more dangerous.
If something breaks down,
he can make something happen with his legs, Fedora
said. Thats a back-breaker
for a defense.
In the Tar Heels 40-35 triumph over Pittsburgh in 2014,
the Panthers defense struggled to corral the mobile quarterback, as Williams amassed
122 yards and a career-best
three touchdowns rushing.
When the Tar Heels head
to Pittsburgh on Thursday,
Fedora expects more of the
same from his offensive leader. But his teammates dont
know what to expect.
You might get passing
touchdowns, receiving touch-

downs, who knows, Hood said.

The guy can flat out play.
When asked about his
extraordinary performance
a year ago, Williams just
shrugged. He doesnt remem-

ber the yards, and he doesnt

remember the touchdowns.
He only remembers the
win.

Franklin Hotel relocates parking to public lot

The hotel will use
the lot while its garage
is closed for repairs.
By Lara Carson
Staff Writer

Chapel Hill lost 40 free

public parking spots last week
to guests of The Franklin
Hotel. While the hotels
garage is closed for repairs,
guest parking has been
relocated to the previouslymetered lot behind Chipotle
on Franklin Street.
That was an awesome lot.

It was a perfect location, said

Brenda Jones, Chapel Hill
parking superintendent, who
hopes losing the lot wont
have a significant effect on
the accessibility of downtown.
Jay Patel, owner of The
Franklin Hotel, purchased the
lot in 2013 with intentions of
eventually using it as the site
of an upscale apartment building, The Graduate. This type
of project requires a Special
Use Permit (SUP) from the
town of Chapel Hill before
construction may begin.
Patel applied for the
SUP, and while waiting for
its approval, leased the lot

to the town of Chapel Hill

in May 2013. The town
installed a meter and offered
hourly metered parking until
August. Jones said this lot fulfilled a need of Chapel Hill.
When Patels SUP was
approved in October 2014,
the design and planning process began for The Graduate.
A goal was set to begin construction in January 2016.
This meant the yearlong lease
with Chapel Hill would no
longer be possible.
We needed to do some
preliminary site work this
fall that would have made
it difficult for the town to

operate the lot, Patel said.

We needed an arrangement
that would give us the ability
to give a last minute notice
to the town to cancel so we
could begin our work.
Patel offered a shorter
lease that would end before
construction of The Graduate
is scheduled to begin, but the
town decided not to renew.
This was a short-term
leased lot, said Dwight
Bassett, a Chapel Hill economic development officer.
Our lease was near the end
of its term and we agreed to
let it revert back to the property owners as they prepare

for construction.
For the last couple of
months, the lot was open to
the public at no charge.
We decided that we would
just leave the lot open as a
free for all and not worry
about enforcing any private
parking rules, Patel said.
Then, last week, Patel and
his team determined the parking garage at The Franklin
Hotel needed repairs. They
decided to close the garage
while engineers calculated the
renovation process.
This created a shortage
of parking for The Franklin,
Patel said. To accommodate

parking for hotel guests, we

are limiting use of the parking lot behind Chipotle to
only hotel guests.
At this time, guests are
issued a parking permit with
their room keys at check in.
The hotel is enforcing private
property towing rules, according to Patel.
Jones said Chapel Hill has
no immediate plans to lease
or purchase alternative lots.
We have lots of parking,
Jones said. It may not be the
most convenient parking but
we have enough.

COURTESY OF EDDIE MANN

Eddie Mann will be among those inducted into the Hall of Fame by the Chamber of Commerce.

Savings and Loan

president honored
By Brooke Fisher
Staff Writer

The Chapel Hill-Carrboro

Chamber of Commerce will
induct seven business leaders
into its Hall of Fame on Nov.
5. The Daily Tar Heel will
feature each of these inductees.
Eddie Mann, former president
of Orange Federal Savings
and Loan, will be among
those inducted.
Sometimes its easy to
forget that banks are just as
much an integral part of the
business community as a
long-standing eatery.
Orange Federal Savings
and Loan started serving the
Orange County community in
1918 under the name Orange
Savings and Loan. They were
in the service of helping the
community through mortgages and personal loans. Eddie
Mann joined Orange Federal
Savings and Loan in 1964,
and became president of the
bank in 1980.
My company was the market-share leader in helping
local citizens obtain a place to
live, Mann said in an email.
But it wasnt just excellence

in business that made Mann

worthy of an award. According
to the selection criteria set
by the Chapel Hill-Carrboro
Chamber of Commerce, business leaders must have made a
substantial, positive and lasting impact on the community.
This award celebrates
local business leaders that
have made a substantial,
positive and lasting difference
where we live, raise families
and do business, said Aaron
Martin Nelson, president
and CEO of the Chamber of
Commerce, in a statement.
Bob Woodruff, Hall of
Fame selection committee
chairperson, said selecting
only a few businesses each
year is hard because many
people have made lasting
impacts on the community
through business.
It takes several meetings
to narrow nominations down
to those whom the committee
feels are most deserving, he
said in an email. The goal of
the committee was to select 10
people (in 2013) and five each
year thereafter, but we have
not been able to get down to
that number because we have

so many outstanding people in

our business community.
Mann started Community
Affordable Housing Equity
Corporation, or CAHEC,
in 1992. CAHEC finances
affordable rental housing in
North Carolina. Since 1992,
it has expanded to 11 other
states along the East Coast, as
well as Washington, D.C.
Mann also spent time as a
board member on the Orange
Water and Sewer Authority
during the build of the Cane
Creek Reservoir and was the
president of the East Chapel
Hill Rotary Club from 1990
to 1991.
Orange Federal Savings
and Loan became Centura
Bank in 1992, which in turn
became RBC Bank and is now
the PNC Bank branch on East
Rosemary Street.
I feel honored, said Mann
in an email. It is definitely an
honor to be selected by your
peers as someone deserving of
special recognition. It is also a
part of that legacy thing that
we all think about as we get to
our senior years.

antiquated, and narrow-minded agenda.

A Southern Environmentalist

The Weekly Word

Colin Kantor looks at the place
of social criticism on campuses.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Jay Patel, owner of the Franklin Hotel

Mogan Zemaitis

ast week, UNC got a

little bit brighter. The
Student Union now
hosts 64 solar panels on its
roof, courtesy of UNC representatives, the Carolina
Union, Renewable Energy
Special Projects Committee of
Student Government, Strata
Solar, SMA America, Shoals
Technologies and City Electric
Supply.
This is, of course, a great
accomplishment for a
University that gets a lot of
criticism for its lack of a progressive energy agenda.
But what this great stride
toward a sustainable campus
doesnt show is the dim outlook for renewable energy in
the rest of North Carolina.
In recent months, North
Carolina politics has not
shown favor to the cleanenergy industry. In two major
legislative actions, our state
government has essentially
written off the growing renewable-energy market.
First, the legislature voted to
end renewable-energy tax credits. To many, this government
investment is seen as a crutch
that solar businesses lean on.
This might be true, but with
new developments in technology, mass production and business models, the solar industry
eventually wont need them.
Ending government funding at this stage is poor timing,
and even incrementally phasing out the credits is better
than completely ending them.
Now is simply not the right
time to get rid of these credits.
Lets not forget other industries that still receive government funding. Doesnt it seem
wrong that the oil industry
benefits from government subsidies, yet we are taking away
money from solar instead?
Because human and environmental costs are still not
factored into profits, oil is
seen as more profitable than
solar. These profits could help
taxpayers through government
programs and benefits, yet the
money is kept in the pockets
of oil companies. Why are oil
companies capable of differing
tax liabilities while less profitable industries, such as solar,
are held under more scrutiny?
Freezing the Renewable
Energy Portfolio Standard for
future years was the second
strike against clean energy in
North Carolina. This action
created a lack of incentive or
obligation for utility companies
like Duke Energy to expand
renewable-energy projects.
North Carolina enjoys the
4,000 jobs solar energy created in this state, not to mention
jobs in other areas of renewable energy. Without an everincreasing portfolio standard,
workers in a growing, thriving
part of North Carolinas job
market are at risk.
It is disappointing that
we as a state are headed in a
backward trajectory with our
energy development. What we
can hope for now is to quickly
learn from these decisions and
put North Carolina back on
track to being a competitive
and progressive player in an
ever-evolving industry.
Politics should never determine our energy mix. There
was a time where the strive for
clean energy was bipartisan,
and our state and country need
effort on both sides to create
a better economy and energy
future.

The Daily Tar Heel

EDITORIAL

Well-represented
N.C. legislators
have superb
voting records.

he North Carolina
chapter of the
American Civil
Liberties Union recently
released their 2015
Legislative Report Card,
which details how each
member of the General
Assembly voted on five key
bills related to civil liberties.
Representatives Verla
Insko and Graig R. Meyer
both voted the right
way on all five of these
bills, and Sen. Valerie P.
Foushee did the same.
This editorial board
often criticizes the General

Assembly without noting

the superb efforts of local
legislators. They should be
praised for their steadfast
commitment to progressive values.
Some of the more egregious measures Orange
County representatives
opposed are as follows:
A last-minute insertion
in HB 279 would have
stripped local governments
of their ability to pass antidiscrimination ordinances
related to employment,
housing and public accommodations, but that provision was thankfully killed
before the bill became law.
SB 2 allows magistrates
to opt-out of conducting
marriages for legally eli-

gible couples.
HB 318 will prohibit
local governments from
adopting sanctuary ordinances that limit enforcement of immigration laws
unless Gov. Pat McCrory
vetoes the bill.
Sadly, in Orange County,
our legislators are often
part of the minority and
were not able to defeat
many of the ill-conceived
bills passed this session.
At a time when the
General Assembly is constantly trying to tamper
and strip state residents of
their civil liberties, Orange
County voters can find comfort in knowing that those
elected to represent them
have done so faithfully.

GUEST COLUMN

I am not an issue, UNC

UNC shouldnt
discourage required
transparency.

n Monday, UNC
posted an announcement on its scandal
website without warning.
Since 2012, the University
has spent more than $7.5
million on law and public
relations help in relation
to the ongoing academicathletic scandal.
To explain why this sum
of money was needed, the
release listed some of the
unprecedented combination
of simultaneous issues the
University is facing.
As one of the issues,
UNC lists two pending
public records request the
largest in University history.
A public record request is
not an issue its the right

of every North Carolinian.
The requests are, more
or less, identical: All of
the records used by former investigator Kenneth
Wainsteins team to create
its report that was released a
little over a year ago.
One of these requests was
made by (Raleigh) News &
Observer reporter Dan Kane.
The other was made by me.
And the University has
equated these requests with
the ongoing NCAA investigation among other scandalrelated fallouts by listing it
under the label of issues.
By listing my request

alongside legitimate issues

the University is facing,
UNC hasnt just been lazy,
but also incorrect.
By blaming the media,
the University is once again
playing the victim. The
University is not the victim.
I would not have made the
largest request in University
history if the worst scandal
in University history was not
still going on. The media is
a constant source of UNC
diehards exasperation, but
reporters, like myself, are
doing what we are trained to
do: Question authority and
hold power to the light.
UNC should not discourage public record requests by
labeling them as issues. If
anything, the powers-thatbe at the University should
invite more public record
requests especially if they
are serious about moving
forward.

TO THE EDITOR:
I found Jen Myers letter, published Oct. 26,
to be very troubling. Her
desire to stifle pro-Confederate protesters exercise
of their free speech rights
and her conflation of such
exercise with threatening students safety are
fundamentally incompatible with both the liberal
academic tradition and the
American tradition of freedom of expression.
Universities are meant
to be places that support
the free and open discussion of ideas, where the
best ideas can win out.
The reason that this principle is important is to
support people who may
have ideas that today seem
outlandish but that later
turn out to be correct, in
the model of Copernicus.
Although many of those
ideas may ultimately turn
out to be incorrect, the
principle must be protected
to support the advancement of humanity.
Additionally, freedom of
speech is a core American
value, not, as Ms. Myers
characterized it, a cop-out.
This value protects
not just popular speech,
but unpopular, hateful,
and controversial speech.
Indeed, it is most necessary in the case of unpopular speech.
Physical safety was not
at issue on Sunday. Despite
numerous heated arguments, nobody ever came
to blows, and there were
numerous campus police
officers there to keep the
peace if they needed to.
The pro-Confederate protesters who came to campus
were hateful, misguided and
foolish. In an open competition of ideas, their ideas are
nothing to fear.

Silent Sam protests

ignored a third view
TO THE EDITOR:
Protests Sunday over
Silent Sam ignored a third
side that neither argues
for backward policies, nor
total demolition of history.
This view acknowledges
that slavery, racism and the
fight for states rights are
deeply rooted in our states
history, but realizes that
the shameful pieces of our
history cannot be forgotten
because they motivate further progress.
Silent Sam should
remain a part of the fabric
of this campus because the
ideas of the Confederacy
are not something that
can be removed from the
history of this state. North
Carolina should not hide
or erase the racist roots
of its successes, like this
university, because to hide
is to ignore the atrocities
and to erase is to forget
them. We cannot change
the past, but we can use it

to move forward.
Thus, the outrage of
many toward Silent Sam
becomes productive.
However, this outrage is
justified, so it should not
be ignored. Move Silent
Sam to the Old Chapel
Hill Cemetery where he
will not be forgotten, but
instead laid to rest as
Dennis Rogers suggested
in his October 16 piece in
the (Raleigh) News and
Observer.
To keep Silent Sam on
campus does not deny that
there are many wrongs
that still need to be
righted in this state, in the
South and in this country.
Instead, it allows him to
serve as a reminder of
where we came from, how
far we have come and how
much further we must go
to attain the precious goal
of equality.

Do not take your time

in college for granted
TO THE EDITOR:
The value of human life
simply cannot be estimated
or determined by ones
achievements or personal
progress.
We are busy, but what
are we missing out on in
our busy-ness?
We are all students of
the same body. We are living a beautiful privilege by
participating in this intricately-bound community
we call UNC.
Each and every one of us
has worked in ways no other
individual can fully understand in order to be here.
The pursuit of wholesome goals, the ambition
of multifaceted minds and
the courage of kindhearted
youths this is the richness we take for granted.
But with hard work must
come deliberate rest.
For with rest comes a
satisfaction for ones labor,
a thankfulness for the
good and the bad and a
thirst for the adventure of
tomorrow.
That is to say, an hour
spent in deep thought
mulling over abstract
ideas and possibilities
beyond your mundane college routine holds value
in itself. That is not time
wasted, but time invested
in your mental health and
overall happiness.
Twenty-five minutes
of uninterrupted powernapping might be the difference between a day full
of new faces and opportunities and a Monday
plagued by unmanageable
tasks and the repercussions of procrastinating
all weekend.
So I say, Tar Heels, get
some rest.
Know that, while
academic standing and
scholarly success are each
important to a high degree,
there is nothing so treasured as the spontaneity,
sincerity and creativity
of your untethered, wellrested human mind.
