THE CALL FOR HELP
By Megan Cassella
Summer Editor
The beds line the walls, crowd the hall-
ways and form a ring around the nurses
station.
Theyre empty, most of them its
11:30 p.m. in the emergency room at UNC
Hospitals, and the day is coming to a close.
But as the hour grows later and the
weekend looms, the vacant beds start to
fill, awaiting the patients who tend to
inhabit them more often than anyone
else intoxicated students.
With the number of calls to emergency
medical services for student alcohol
overdoses rising, and new statewide leg-
islation in place to encourage calling for
help, the University is now facing a bigger
question what, if any, consequences
these students should face.
The hospital drunk tank
When a call reporting an intoxicated
person comes in to the emergency ser-
vices headquarters in Hillsborough, a
response team goes out.
And according to Orange County
Emergency Services Alcohol-Related
Incidents report, its something that has
been happening more frequently.
In the spring of 2012, EMS received 40
alcohol-related calls for 18- to 22-year-
olds in the Chapel Hill or campus area.
The following fall, that same number
jumped to 60 calls an increase of 50
percent. Comparable data for earlier
years was not available.
Kim Woodward, the operations man-
ager who collected the data, said the
number of alcohol-related calls involv-
ing students often increases from the
spring to the fall, prompted by the season
change and the start of a new school year.
But Dean Blackburn, assistant dean of
students, said he thinks this years spike is
due to a concentrated push on campus to
promote calling for help when its needed.
Weve been practicing a See some-
thing, say something technique if you
see someone in need, do something to
assist and dont be a passive bystander,
Blackburn said, adding that the emphasis
on calling began in summer 2012.
We believe that has played out in the
increased number of calls.

Orange County officials are concerned about a budget
proposal that would shutter a Hillsborough prison.
The Orange Correctional Center is one of seven
prisons the North Carolina Senate recommends closing
in its 2013-14 budget. The proposed budget, released
May 22, would close the facility on Oct. 1 and transfer
inmates to other facilities.
State senators have said they want to close the facility
in response to a decline in the states prison population.
Closing the facility would trim about $2.7 million from
the state budget this fiscal year and about $3.7 million
next year, the proposal claims.
But some in Orange County government question
whether the closing would do more harm than good.
We think it would be an unfortunate choice
motivated more by behind-the-scenes political
maneuvering than any real necessity, said Barry
Jacobs, chairman of the Orange County Board of
Commissioners.
The 220-bed, minimum-security prison employs 74
people from Orange, Durham, Caswell, Person, Guilford
and Alamance counties, said prison superintendent
Armstead Hodges.
He said despite the smaller prison population
statewide, the Orange facility is nearly full, with 217
current inmates.
In 2009, the state completed a $6 million segregation
facility on the Orange property to house inmates with
behavioral and disciplinary problems.
Rep. Valerie Foushee (D-Orange) said she disagrees
with closing the facility just four years after the expan-
sion.

Al Hunt had $5 in his pocket and
he used it to pay for someone elses cab.
A lieutenant shift supervisor, Hunt
has worked with emergency medical ser-
vices in Orange County for nearly three
decades.
In 28 years, he said hes seen some of
everything. Hes had stretches of time
where the amount of death and dying
really wears on him.
But one of the hardest parts of the job,
he said, is watching students walk home
alone at night.
That just scares me to death.
Hunt said the largest number of 911
calls are those involving students.
We pick up a lot of drunks, said Dave
Sinkiewicz, an EMT-basic.
Theyre not necessarily sick, dont
necessarily need medical help they just
drank too much.
Hunt said new legislation granting legal
protection to students who call for help will
likely push the number of alcohol-related
911 calls for 18- to 22-year-olds even higher
which, he said, is a good thing.
From our perspective, as EMS, were

Well, the creepy part is still arguable, but at least now its legal. A candy
company has created a line of breast milk lollipops in an attempt to har-
ness the forgotten flavor. A case of four lollipops sells for $10.
The lollipops contain no actual breast milk (theyre vegan) but they
were directly inspired by real breast milk provided by real mothers. So
rest assured no matter how weird you are for wanting one of these,
youre still not as creepy as the flavor specialists who made the formula.

NC NAACP president on campus for 100th
Anniversary of Silent Sam memorial dedication
Rev. William J. Barber II, president of the N.C. NAACP,
visited UNC Sunday to join the Real Silent Sam Committee
and Chapel Hill community members to mark the 100th
anniversary of the Confederate monument Silent Sam on
McCorkle Place, which celebrated the re-establishment of
white supremacy and Jim Crow after Reconstruction.
The event aimed to celebrate a new South and recognize
the people of color who built the University and maintain its
campus, as well as empower UNCs students of color.
statE BRIEF
Law school alumnus named IRS commissioner
The newly appointed acting commissioner of the Internal
Revenue Service which has been embroiled in controversy
for nearly a month is a graduate of the UNC School of Law.
Daniel Werfel, who received his UNC law degree in 1997,
was appointed two weeks ago by President Barack Obama.
Steven Miller resigned last month amid allegations that the
IRS had unjustly targeted conservative groups seeking tax-
exempt status.
As we work to get to the bottom of what happened and
restore confidence in the IRS, Danny has the experience
and management ability necessary to lead the agency at this
important time, Obama said in a statement.

Gender-neutral housing
again faces state opposition
New season
to link arts,
academics
By Sam Schaefer
Staff Writer
Four students who opted into the
Universitys gender-neutral housing
program might have to find a new place to
live in the fall.
A bill aiming to ban gender-neutral
housing at the University failed to make it
out of the N.C. Senate earlier this session
but it recently found new life as an
amendment to the Senate budget, which
was approved May 23.
If the final budget which should
be announced by the end of June is
approved with the same provision, it
could put an end to gender-neutral
housing at UNC before it begins.
Now, as the N.C. House of
Representatives finalizes its budget
proposal, the University is deciding what
it will do if the amendment becomes law.
Terri Phoenix, director of UNCs
LGBTQ Center, said it would be difficult
for students who have opted into the
program and signed a housing contract
with the University to acquire off-
campus housing at this stage, should the
amendment become law.
The University designated 32 spaces in
Carmichael Residence Hall, Craige North
and Ram Village for the pilot program,
said Rick Bradley, associate director of
housing. But only four students have
signed up to participate, and Bradley
said the University planned to work
individually with students to determine
their placement.
But he said if the budget passes with
the provision, the gender-neutral housing
program would not be able to move
forward.
Certainly we would not be able to go
against state law, so this could potentially
put a stop to the pilot, he said.
Junior Kevin Claybren, who led the
push for gender-neutral housing at UNC
and plans to participate in the pilot
program this fall, said the new efforts by
members of the General Assembly show
state interference in University affairs
despite broad support.
Weve got 2,816 student signatures
of support, 55 student organizations
endorsed it, the Board of Trustees
unanimously endorsed it and the
chancellor endorsed it thats a lot of
overwhelming support, he said.
Claybren said he wants legislators to real-
ize that this issue is important to students.
This isnt just some social experi-
ment, he said. These are actual student
lives that are being voted on.

State budget proposals might

Emil Kang knew he wanted to dial down Carolina
Performing Arts 2013-14 season after The Rite of
Spring at 100.
So instead of bringing in a slew of world premieres
again, the executive director for the arts and his staff
decided to emphasize one of their important goals this
season integrating the arts and academics at UNC.
What were able to do, up until this point, is support
the creation of master classes and lectures but I think
our vision is much greater than that, Kang said.
Thats basically fruit thats already fallen to the
ground, but whats still up in the trees, and whats still
there? And faculty have to be involved in those conversa-
tions (of academic involvement in the arts).
Through a five-year, $800,000 grant awarded by the
Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, next years perform-
ing arts season will focus on its new program, Arts@
TheCore which is designed to promote collaboration
between the arts and academics at UNC.
Kang said there is already a lot of collaboration
between the bodies, but the program will help CPA
receive recognition for its academic programs such
as courses and master classes and alert people to the
importance of this integration.
Arts@TheCore is basically an umbrella for all of the
work we do integrating the arts into the academy, Kang
said. Its not that were going to be doing anything dif-
ferently its a matter of emphasis for us this year.
The season will open with a performance from North
Carolina natives and funk musicians Maceo Parker
and George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in
September.
Kang said this seasons shows will focus on the life of
the artist through three key words: reclaim, reinvent and
rejoice.
Its what artists do all the time, Kang said. Thats
the idea of the role of the artist, these three easy words
we can use.
The Mellon grant also provides funding for Joy
Kasson, a UNC professor and this years Andrew W.
Mellon Distinguished Scholar for the arts. With the
grant, Kasson will develop an Arts@TheCore faculty
seminar to explore connections between Memorial Hall
performances and UNC facultys research and teaching.
Kasson said she is most excited to talk to other faculty
members and to strengthen the performing arts relation-
ship with UNC professors and other faculty members.
I dont see it as myself just disseminating the ideas
that I have, but finding out what ideas other people have
and helping them share with each other, Kasson said.
Ultimately, I hope we ll have even more students at
Memorial Hall.
Joe Florence, UNCs marketing manager for the
arts, said the seasons success will be based on how well
Arts@TheCore is implemented.
If our organization were a building, the performanc-
es would be the bricks of that building, he said. But
the Arts@TheCore is the mortar that holds everything
together.
Kang said the season is about getting every member
of the UNC community to see the arts as an integral part
of his or her life.
What we do is not on the periphery of campus life,
but at the core, he said.

Q&A with James Moeser
James moeser, who
preceded Holden
Thorp as UNCs
chancellor, will
become interim chan-
cellor of UNC School
of the Arts beginning
Aug. 1.
James Moeser, UNC-CHs chancellor
from 2000-08, will become UNC School
of the Arts interim chancellor Aug. 1.
State & National Editor Sarah Brown
spoke with Moeser about his new job,
his advice for UNC-CH and his recent
comments on media coverage of the
Universitys academic and athletic scan-
dals.
DAiLy tAr heeL: What specifically
appeals to you about leading UNCSA?
James moeser: My whole history is in
the arts. Its my field.
As far as the School of the Arts, its
an extraordinary institution its the
only publicly supported conservatory in
the United States. I want to make sure it
continues to succeed.
Dth: Do you have any reservations
about taking the job?
Jm: Im very happy doing what Im
doing being a faculty member here,
teaching a first-year seminar ... the
reluctance was to let go (of Chapel Hill).
Being a chancellor is a stressful job. Im
going back into the fight club, one could
say.
But I like leadership. The job of chan-
cellor is ultimately helping others to be
successful, and I find that fulfilling.
Dth: What are some of the challenges
you plan to tackle at UNCSA?
Jm: The major challenge for me is ... I
have no intimate knowledge of the place
at all.
My plan of action is to go to each of the
major people on campus ... and get them
to tell me about what they do and what
their issues are ... (so I can) understand
the ground on which they stand.
Dth: How do you see UNC-CH faring
over the next year?
Jm: Obviously we have some challeng-
es (especially) with regard to support
from the state of North Carolina.
But Im very bullish on the future of
Carolina. If I were 10, 15 years younger,
this is where I would want to be leading
an institution.
Dth: How could budget cuts affect the
UNC system next year?
Jm: Frankly, I think (cuts) could
damage other parts of the UNC system
more than Chapel Hill but there are
a number of threats out there. I wont
minimize them theyre serious.
Nonetheless, Im very pessimistic short-
term, but very optimistic long-term.
Dth: Your comments in a Chapel Hill
Magazine interview that (the media)
has really put a target on the University
provoked a significant backlash do
you regret anything you said?
Jm: No, I dont regret it.
The impetus of (the reporters) ques-
tion was: Is (the Carolina Way) a legiti-
mate concept? And I said, absolutely it is.
What I was thinking, too, was that
one journal in particular which I will
refuse to name took a very cynical
view toward the Carolina Way.
It said basically that it was fraudu-
lent, that it was a cover for malfeasance
... that we were hypocrites, and so on.
I grew up in West Texas, and we used
to have a saying that the hit dog always
howls. I thought the way that one
newspaper responded to that set of com-
ments basically proved my point.

By Anna Long
Staff Writer
The Inter-Faith Council, which runs
Chapel Hills homeless shelters, will
celebrate its 50th anniversary tonight by
honoring the people and organizations
that have helped it thrive.
Among the 126 people and groups
who will be honored is Robert Seymour,
the councils first president and an hon-
orary life board member. Seymour is the
pastor emeritus at Binkley Memorial
Baptist Church in Chapel Hill.
Seymour said the organization was
created to meet basic human needs by
bringing food, clothing and other ser-
vices to people in need.
Its awesome to see how far weve
come, Seymour said. It was a very
inauspicious beginning. Im sure in these
last 50 years we have literally brought
meals to hundreds of thousands of peo-
ple and provided shelter for thousands
more.
One person who helped the council
in its mission was Tim Heninger, who
volunteered as a receptionist at the
Community House and food pantry for
15 years. He will be honored in memo-
riam at the event.
His wife, Dottie Heninger, said she was
touched to find out he is being honored
for his contributions.
He would be very pleased to know he
is being honored, she said. He was an
academic who spent most of his career
working with the privileged and those
who were very successful. But in his
retirement, he chose to work with the
other populations of the world and of
our community.
One organization to be honored at the
event is Chapel Hills University United
Methodist Church.
Many of our members volunteer
regularly at (the councils) food minis-
try, said Carl King, the churchs lead
pastor. Weve had a good partnership,
as have all of the downtown churches in
addressing homelessness in our area.
King said while the anniversary is
a time to celebrate, its important to
remember the need for community sup-
port.
I fear sometimes that people dont
realize the great need that (the council)
fills and the great need our whole com-
munity has to increase our efforts to
support them.

their real names and remain
with the person until authori-
ties arrive.
In that situation, if you
were under 21 and the police
find alcohol, they would not
be able to charge you with
possession or consumption,
he said.
But while students might
not get in legal trouble, they
still could be charged with a
violation of the Honor Code
a loophole that the University
is now working to rewrite.
Blackburn said his office,
which is in charge of rewrit-
ing the policy, wants to keep
the University operating in
the same spirit as the legisla-
tion.
So we are working now
in trying to devise some lan-
guage to our policy that will
speak to where and when the
University will also observe a
medical amnesty approach,
he said.

The move will begin in the
fall, but is expected to take
more than a year.
Chapel Hill Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt said the news
did not come as a surprise,
and that he recognizes the
difficulties of maintaining the
large building.
Its one of the most chal-
lenging buildings to heat and
cool, he said.
Kleinschmidt said he was
disappointed, but thinks
that the former BCBS prop-
erty has a lot of potential for
future projects.
It says there are some
opportunities for us, he said.
Kleinschmidt said he was
not sure what the land would
specifically be used for, but
he did mention that a light
rail stop has been proposed
for that location. Planning for
the proposed light rail, which
officials hope will someday
connect Chapel Hill, Durham
and Raleigh, began in April.
Kleinschmidt said he
thinks the propertys large
parking lots make for a space
that would be conducive to a
transit center.
Roughly 900 employees
who work in the current
bluecross
from page 1
prepared for it.
But Landon Weaver, an
Orange County paramedic,
said legal immunity wont
necessarily increase calls for
help because its not trou-
ble with the law that students
tend to worry about.
Theyre usually just freak-
ing out about their parents,
he said. But if theyre coher-
ent enough for that, I guess
thats a good thing.
Its not always the case.
Between calls, the paramed-
ics wait back at their stations
watching TV, relaxing.
Theyll trade stories the
repeat caller who keeps falling
asleep outside the bar, the girl
who passed out on a bench on
her way back to South Campus.
And, mostly, they wait.
Once calls come in and
EMS heads to the scene,
Weaver said paramedics
sometimes have a choice. It
can be up to their discretion,
he said, whether someone
needs to go to the hospital.
Sometimes theyre
involved in things where the
alternative to us taking them
would be them going to jail,
he said. They dont really
respect the fact were being
good Samaritans if we dont
let that happen.
Katherine Meyer, another
paramedic, said difficulty
with intoxicated patients is
typical.
Its not uncommon to have
somebody who tries to swing
at you, to yell at you, to spit at
you, Meyer said.
They dont like having to
go to the hospital.
She said little stays con-
stant from one call to the next
except in how they could
be prevented.
Use sense when youre
drinking, she said. And dont
leave your friends because
then we find your friends on
the side of the road, vomiting.
And nobody wants that.

It just doesnt make sense
to spend all that money and
then say youre going to close
that facility, Foushee said.
Since learning of the
proposed closing in the
Senate budget, Foushee and
Rep. Verla Insko (D-Orange)
have been lobbying to keep
the prison open.
Insko said she will focus
on recommendations from
Orange County officials in
trying to get the proposal
removed from the Houses
version of the budget, which
will be released this month.
I will depend on
advice from the county
commissioners about how
to proceed, because theyre
the ones that know what the
county needs, Insko said.
Gov. Pat McCrorys pro-
posed budget, released in
March, recommended clos-
ing five prisons one each
in Wayne, Duplin, Robeson
prison
from page 1
911 calls
from page 1
and Bladen counties, plus the
Western Youth Institution in
Morganton.
The Senate budget
proposes closing the Orange
and Buncombe prisons in
addition to those facilities.
But Hodges argues the
Orange facility currently
houses enough inmates to
necessitate staying open.
Were consistently very
full, and this particular prison
has a backlog of 80-100
inmates waiting to be housed
at Orange, Hodges said.
He said the reason for
the large number of inmates
requesting a transfer
to Orange is the wide
availability of programming
for prisoners. A work-release
program and classes on topics
like food service technology,
construction and carpentry
give inmates the chance to
learn a marketable skill prior
to their release from prison.
And these programs may
account for additional jobs at
the facility. Jacobs said people
from Hillsborough and UNC
work in both the educational
programs and ministry
services at the center.
He said the county has
focused on increasing these
opportunities to help with
rehabilitation efforts.
Were a fairly populous
county in a fairly populous
area, and there are a number
of people who would
otherwise be unable to make
the connections they need to
maintain their positive outlook
when they get out, Jacobs said.
He added while he
disagrees with the direction
of the legislature, he hopes
local representatives will be
able to keep the facility open.
I dont think anybody of
a progressive bent can be
optimistic about anything in
this legislature, but I think
we can be reassured that we
have good champions in our
corner, he said.

building will be affected by
the move, said BCBS spokes-
man Lew Borman.
Borman said the purpose
of the move is to reduce oper-
ating and utility costs a
change he thinks will save
$2.5 million. He said it was
inevitable that the company
would vacate the building,
which is 40 years old.
Weve been evaluating our
real estate profile for a num-
ber of years, he said.
Borman also said half of
BCBSs employees who work
at the Chapel Hill location
already commute to the
Durham campus. He said
he thinks centralizing the
companys headquarters will
increase efficiency and create
a better work environment.
What this creates is the
ability to have an efficient,
highly operable, attractive,
walkable and environmental-
ly friendly campus, he said.
Borman noted that the
move will happen in phases,
starting in September and
finishing by the end of 2014.
He said its possible that not
all 900 employees will move,
since some may choose to
work from home.
Kleinschmidt said BCBS
brings in $175,000 per year in
tax revenue to the town, but
that will not change because
the buildings landlord must
continue to pay taxes.
Neither Kleinschmidt
nor Chapel Hill-Carrboro
Chamber of Commerce
President Aaron Nelson said
they were concerned the
move would affect the towns
business climate because the
new location is just a few
miles from the old one.
If they were moving to
Toledo, this would have a
big impact on employment,
Nelson said.
Nelson said he thinks the
only potential for lost rev-
enue would be a decrease in
employee spending as work-
ers will now be in Durham
for lunch breaks, rather than
Chapel Hill.
He said he thinks the
building, despite its age,
would be suitable for another
large company but said he is
open to many options.
I think there ll need to be
a realistic conversation about
it, he said.
Ultimately, Borman thinks
the move will be beneficial to
employees without hurting
Chapel Hill.
Its a broad-based group
and this is a way for that group
to be centralized, he said.
Its an exciting opportu-
nity for us.

Crescenzo said before the
legislation, the de facto posi-
tion of both law enforcement
and the University had been
not to get students in trouble
but the rules were unwrit-
ten, and there were excep-
tions.
Whether somebody was
charged before was always up
to the cops, he said.
Im sure people were
charged, and in the end, thats
what created the problem.
People would fear calling
the cops and forgo getting
assistance.
Blackburn said he hopes
to have a policy solidified by
August, in time for students
to return to school.
Unpredictable results
Proponents of the legisla-
tion have said its intentions
are clear to encourage
students to call for help, com-
forted by the fact that they
wont get in legal trouble if
they do so.
The classic situation is the
frat party, Crescenzo said.
Somebodys been chugging
purple Jesus and is passed out
on the floor, and rather than,
Oh my God, this guys barely
breathing, they would just
put him to bed and go home
or some stupid thing like that.
(The new law) addresses
that problem.
But as the University
considers how it might incor-
porate the law into its own
policies on campus, others are
saying that consequences for
students must be put in place.
Chris Baker, a part-time
EMT-basic in Orange County,
said the protection students
are granted under the new
law has the potential to pose a
big problem for the state.
Its going to make students
feel like they have leeway to
get out of trouble.
Rich Eldridge, an Orange
County paramedic, said a lack
of consequences might pro-
mote irresponsible behavior
surrounding drinking.
But he said potential con-
sequences no matter how
severe shouldnt stop stu-
dents from asking for help.
If some 18- or 19-year-old
is going to go out, get ham-
mered drunk and pass out on
the sidewalk, and his friend
calls for him because hes
worried about him, thats a
good thing, Eldridge said.
But if that person that got
drunk and passed out reaps
no consequences from his
actions, then whats going to
stop him from doing it again?
But Blackburn said
students would likely still
have some consequences to
face, regardless of how the
University chooses to move
forward.
Ideally, in most cases,
students would not be facing
judicial repercussions in call-
ing for help, he said.
It doesnt mean that they
wouldnt be meeting with
someone like myself who is
trained in counseling on safe-
ty and decision-making.
Dave Sinkiewicz, an EMT-
basic in Orange County, said
it can be frustrating to expend
so many resources dealing
with calls from students who
simply consumed more alco-
hol than they could handle.
Thats the only thing they
dont teach here, he said.
How to drink.

Kidzu Childrens Museum is planning to open a new location in the Wallace Deck by 2016.
By Taylor Greene
Staff Writer
As Kidzu Childrens
Museum plans a move to the
Wallace Parking Deck on
East Rosemary Street, the
site is undergoing a structural
evaluation.
The structural assessment,
which has so far cost Chapel
Hill approximately $26,000,
is necessary for proper
maintenance of the 20-year-
old structure.
The main concern is
that were taking care of our
asset to make it last, said
Brenda Jones, town parking
superintendent.
And though maintenance
of the facility is the towns
main concern, town
spokeswoman Catherine
Lazorko said the evaluation
is also a proactive measure
to prepare for the planned
Kidzu Childrens Museum
location on top of the deck.
Kidzu, which is currently
located at 123 W. Franklin St.
in the soon-to-be-redesigned
University Square, will move
into Wallace Plaza, located
on top of the deck, in late
2016. They hope to begin
construction in late 2014 or
early 2015.
The town of Chapel
Hill has contracted with
engineering firms Kimley-
Horn and Associates and
Falcon Engineering to
evaluate the deck. Once
evaluations are done,
the firms will make
recommendations for repair

The race for Sen. Kay
Hagans seat in Congress has
just begun the primary
election is in May 2014 but
Republicans hoping to take
her place are already mobiliz-
ing support.
N.C. Speaker of the House
Thom Tillis (R-Mecklenburg)
announced last week he
would run for Hagans seat,
and a super PAC endorsing
his campaign has formed.
Tillis and Tea Party can-
didate Greg Brannon are
the only confirmed GOP
hopefuls but a long list of
Republicans have said they
might run.
Tom Jensen, director
of Public Policy Polling, a
left-leaning firm in Raleigh,
said it is rare to see so many
potential candidates for a
Senate seat.
Matt Canter, spokesman
for the national Democratic
Senatorial Campaign
Committee, said the number
of candidates could pose a
problem for Republicans.
Theres a potential for a
volatile primary there on the
Republican side, Canter said.
He said a long and divisive
primary contest would likely
result in the emergence of a
far-right GOP candidate.
That tends to produce a
nominee who is too extreme
for the mainstream voters in
the state, he said.
But Brook Hougesen,
spokeswoman for the
National Republican
Senatorial Committee, said
Democrats should be con-
cerned about the extreme
views of their candidate.
Voters are looking for
someone who will ... serve as
a check on President Obamas
extreme agenda an agenda
that Kay Hagan supports
more than 93 percent of the
time, she said in an email.
She said the organization
would be on the attack in all
Senate races, but would start
with contests in red states.
It takes twice as much
energy to be on defense as
it does on offense, she said.
We are going to be dedicated
to offense, and that starts in
the seven red states.
Of the 21 Senate seats held
by Democrats up for a vote
this cycle, seven including
Hagans are in states that
2012 Republican presidential
candidate Mitt Romney won
in last years election.
Republicans will defend 14
seats, but only one is in a blue
state.
A recent poll by Public
Policy Polling on the Senate
race in the state found
Hagan leads all challengers
included in the poll except
N.C. Commissioner of Labor
Cherie Berry.
But Berry, who tied with
Hagan at 45 percent, said
after the poll was published
that she will not run.
In comparing the match-
ups, Jensen said he thinks
Democrats would love to see
a race pitting Hagan against
Tillis or N.C. Senate President
Pro Tempore Phil Berger.
(Tillis and Berger are)
associated with such a large
number of things in the legis-
lature that are very unpopu-
lar, Jensen said.
Hougesen said the N.C.
race is a top priority for the
Republican senatorial commit-
tee. The Democratic Senatorial
Campaign Committee also
prioritized N.C. in 2008 to get
Hagan elected.
The committee contributed
more money to Hagans cam-
paign than it did for any other
candidate nationwide.
Canter said the N.C. contest
is a top priority for the commit-
tee this election as well.
Jensen said with all the
interest in the N.C. contest,
it will likely be the most
expensive Senate race in
state history. But he said
the outcome of the race will
largely be out of the candi-

While the circumstances
surrounding Faith Danielle
Hedgepeths homicide
remain uncertain, two North
Carolina Renaissance coun-
selors are working to keep
one thing clear her legacy.
The counselors created the
Have Faith Spirit Award
which was given for the first
time this year to sophomore
Kimberly McCullough to
honor the North Carolina
Renaissance counselor
who most closely embodies
Hedgepeths spirit.
Tina Kawatu, a 2013
graduate and co-creator
of the award, has known
McCullough for two years
and said she was chosen as
the winner because shes very
genuine.
Shes always smiling, shes
always happy, shes always
willing to meet new people,
she said.
Shes one of those people
who is just always willing to
give her knowledge to people
who need it.
North Carolina
Renaissance is a four-day,
three-night program for
high school sophomores
from rural areas. The goal of
the program is to encourage
students to start thinking
about options for higher
education.
Hedgepeth attended the
program as a high school
student and later became a
counselor.
Mike Jones, who worked
with Kawatu on creating
the award, said the two of
them created it because of
Hedgepeths close ties to the
program.
He said they wanted to
ensure that Hedgepeths
memory remains at the
University, even once those
who knew her have gradu-
ated.
I feel like with people who
are as nice and as genuine as
Faith their legacy should
always continue on campus,
he said.
Jones said he and
Hedgepeth were close friends,
and he would regularly visit
her at Red Robin when she
worked there.
McCullough said winning
the award means a lot to her.
She was honestly one of
the best people Ive ever met,
she said.
She embodied so much
that I want to be one day, and
winning this award it just
means that I am doing some-
thing right by honoring her
and living out her legacy.
McCullough said the
programs students admired
Hedgepeth because of her
sweet spirit and personable
nature.
(Faith) was just very fun
and bubbly and a bright indi-
vidual, she said.
She made you feel at home
with her when you were talk-
ing to her, and this award
really shows and demon-
strates how great of an indi-
vidual she was and how much
she impacted people just by
being herself.
The award will be given
annually to a North Carolina
Renaissance counselor who is
chosen by the programs staff.
A plaque honoring the win-
ners will hang in the Office of
Diversity and Multicultural
Affairs.
Roland Hedgepeth, Faith
Hedgepeths father, said he
appreciates the idea behind
the award.
Anything I see that will
keep Faiths memory alive
Im all for it, he said.

and restoration.
The decks last evaluation
was in 1998.
One problem that has
already been identified is
water trapped under the deck.
Thats nothing new, Jones
said. We knew that we had
problems with water being
trapped below the surface.
(The firms are) going to tell
us if the water thats there has
damaged any of the structural
soundness of the facility.
The engineering firms have
done a condition assessment
of the deck and taken samples
from various places around
the deck for testing. Once test-
ing is complete, the firms will
then make further recommen-
dations to the town.
The town unanimously
voted to donate the space,
valued at $4 million, to Kidzu
in November 2009.
It is, in fact, a very
whimsical, fantastic place
to put something like a
childrens museum, said
Pam Wall, Kidzu executive
director. Its really a perfect
fit for us.
Plans for the museum
at Wallace Plaza include a
15,000-square-foot indoor
museum and a 7,500-square-
foot outdoor exhibit area. Wall
said the larger space would
allow Kidzu to host more activ-
ities, such as birthday parties
and field trips.
The museums current
facility in University Square
is 2,000 square feet with no
outdoor exhibit space.
In advance of the
University Square closing,
the museum will move to a
temporary space in University
Mall in September until
the Wallace Plaza space is
complete.
It will stay in that location,
which is larger than its current
one, while it raises the $11 mil-
lion necessary to complete the
Wallace Plaza museum.
Wall said the museum will
not lose its ties to downtown
while at the mall.
Its very important to us
to maintain the relationships
that we have with downtown
Chapel Hill while were at the
mall, Wall said.
So we ll be continuing
the very valuable educational
partnerships we have with
other organizations like
FRANK Gallery, Ackland
Art Museum, Morehead
Planetarium, Frank Porter
Graham (Elementary School)
and others.

Town keeps
towing
restrictions
By Anna Long
Staff Writer
Chapel Hill will regain its
ability to enforce two town
ordinances one banning
cellphone use while driving
and one enforcing restrictions
on tow companies after a
court decision Tuesday.
The ordinances had been
ruled invalid last year, but
the North Carolina Court of
Appeals ruled Tuesday that it
was within the towns author-
ity to enact them as part of its
right to protect the safety and
welfare of the public.
Both the cellphone ban
and towing ordinance will be
reinstated June 24.
While the court deferred
a ruling on the legitimacy of
the cellphone ban, it ruled the
town could enforce it in the
meantime.
The court also agreed the
towing ordinance was within
the towns power.
The ordinance was enacted
to promote public safety and
public welfare and we believe
that was the basis of our
authority to enact it, said town
attorney Ralph Karpinos.
The towing ordinance caps
the amount tow companies
can charge for their services
and also requires companies
to post more signs in parking
lots and to accept credit
and debit cards as payment.
Chapel Hill Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt said hes excited
about the implementation of
the towing ordinance.
We wrote the ordinance to
protect our citizens and visi-
tors from predatory towing,
Kleinschmidt said. Towing
complaints have been one of
the most frequent and per-
sistent complaints Ive heard
from citizens, particularly in
our downtown.
Councilman Jim Ward said
he was also pleased with the
courts decision to uphold the
ordinances, particularly the
towing regulations.
Im very glad that the rul-
ing is back in place. I think it
helps citizens and the town
of Chapel Hill so that we can
have a regulated tow ordi-
nance thats fair to everybody.
Karpinos said he will meet
with the town council, the
police department and elect-
ed officials in the next few
weeks to discuss implementa-
tion of the cellphone ban.
Were not looking to issue
citations thats not the objec-
tive, Karpinos said. The ordi-
nance is to get people to reduce
their use of cellphones (while
driving), thereby improving the
safety of our community.

Local musician Gregory Blaine plays reggae, jazz and blues at
the Oasis coffee shop, a new business in Carr Mill Mall.
By Madison Mundy
Staff Writer
Just a few weeks after Miel
Bon Bons confectionery left
Carr Mill Mall, a new coffee
shop has brought activity
back into the space.
Oasis, a blend between a
coffee shop and a performance
venue, has spent its first weeks
holding a series of different
events to draw in crowds.
Saturday, the shop hosted
local musician Gregory
Blaine, who took to the stage
and performed traditional
reggae, jazz and blues music.
The business seeks to
provide patrons with a space
to unwind and connect with
one another, said owner
Robert Roskind.
Weve created a space that
is so relaxing and so beautiful
... that would be healing for
people and able to restore
them, Roskind said.
Oasis offers a variety of
organic beverages including
coffee, beer and wine and
an assortment of baked goods.
Like many businesses in
Carrboro, Oasis embraces
fair trade. All of the shops
baked goods come from local
bakers either businesses or
individuals specializing in
organic or gluten-free baking.
The shop hosts events
throughout the week, which
include open-mic nights
where people can speak or
read poetry, musical events
that include local artists and
weekday sessions on life-
affirming messages.
Previous programs have
covered topics ranging from
sustainability to outdoor
sports to love and forgiveness
all delivered by profession-
als or ordinary people looking
to share their experiences.
It was really wonderful to
be able to share with people
in an environment that
supports that, said Allegra
Gulino, a Carrboro resident
who gave a presentation at
Oasis last week.
Music events take place
on the weekends, and Oasis
hosts local artists, like Blaine,
and other small groups.
Im excited about this
(coffee shop) because it is
going to have programs and
more of an emphasis on
community, said Lisa Aldred,
a Carrboro resident who
attended the concert.
By Jordan Bailey
University Editor
The first phase of a plan to
provide contextualized grad-
ing information for under-
graduate classes at UNC
was implemented this week
with the release of the first
Instructor Grading Patterns
reports.
Faculty members will now
receive the reports each term
in order to compare their
grade distributions to the
distributions of other faculty
members within their depart-
ment or across the schools.
Results of the reports are
visible only to faculty members.
Andrew Perrin, a sociology
professor and former chair-
man of the educational policy
committee, which developed
the plan, said the reports are
the result of concerns over
grade inflation and inequality.
There was a really strong
sense that both of those issues
grade inflation and grade
inequality were important
and were threatening the valid-
ity of grading at UNC, he said.
We decided that the
best way to approach that is

The Florida Atlantic
baseball team nearly snuck
into this weekends Super
Regional matchup.
But North Carolina rallied
twice once in the ninth and
once in the 12th inning to
overcome deficits and ulti-
mately defeat the Owls 12-11
in Mondays 13-inning elimi-
nation game.
That might have been the
greatest baseball game Ive
ever been a part of, coach
Mike Fox said afterwards.
I certainly dont have any
(words) to describe that one.
Now in the Super Regional
round of the NCAA baseball
tournament, No. 1 overall
seed UNC will host Columbia
Regional winner South
Carolina beginning Friday
in a best-of-three series. The
winner will advance to the
College World Series.
Heres what this weekends
matchup will look like.
At the plate
On paper, UNC packs quite
a bit more offensive punch
than the Gamecocks.
UNC is second in the
country in scoring with 8.1
runs per game, while South
Carolina ranks 64th at six
runs per contest.
Chapel Hill Regional MVP
Cody Stubbs has carried the
UNC offense lately, batting
.372 with eight home runs.
ACC player of the year Colin
Moran (.348, 86 RBI) and
freshman Skye Bolt (.341, 49
RBI) have struggled in recent
games.
The offense showed its
potency Monday, overcoming
two multiple-run deficits and
smacking 21 hits.
For South Carolina, switch-
hitting designated hitter L.B.
Dantzler (.322, 15 home runs)
and shortstop Joey Pankake
(.313, 10 home runs) provide
plenty of pop in the middle of
the batting order.
The Gamecocks punished
Liberty 19-3 on Saturday, so
the Tar Heel pitchers wont be
able to take them lightly.
On the mound
With the exception of
Mondays UNC bullpen implo-
sion, both teams pitched well
in regional action.
But fatigue could play a
factor for UNC, with all three
starters pitching Monday. Ace
left-hander Kent Emanuel
threw 51 pitches in relief after
throwing 124 Saturday.
Hobbs Johnson will look to
pick up where he left off after
pitching six no-hit innings
Sunday.
Gamecock starters Nolan
Belcher, Jordan Montgomery
and Jack Wynkoop combined
to allow just three runs as
Oasis brews blend of coee, performances
Grade distribution reports
allow for faculty comparison
Roskind opened Oasis
in Carrboro after years of
traveling and writing novels
on his experiences.
He said he feels that Oasis
is different from other coffee
shops because of its serene
nature.
It is going to support, in
a more spiritual sense, the
community, Gulino said.
Gulino said she thought
the business would give back
to Carrboro in a unique way.
It gives (Carrboro) a
voice, it gives (it) a home,
it gives a place to share
your stories and a place to
communicate about issues
that you might not hear about
in other places, she said.
Contact the desk editor at
city@dailytarheel.com.
UNC will face the
Gamecocks in a series
starting Friday.
The idea is to get
everyone talking
about ... grade
inflation.
Donna Gilleskie,
economics professor
tion than is on the transcript
itself, which students can
show graduate schools or
potential employers.
Perrin also said student
government representatives
played a big role in develop-
ing the reports because they
wanted to ensure that faculty
grading was fair and accu-
rate.
Derickson said the reports
include the mean and median
grades of the course as well as
a breakdown of the number
of each letter grade awarded
in classes that have more than
five students.
Donna Gilleskie, an eco-
nomics professor, said the
reports will encourage discus-
sion among faculty.
I think one of the ideas
that were hoping this will fos-
ter is discussion about grad-
ing, she said.
The idea is to get everyone
talking about some of the
deeper issues of grade infla-
tion, grade compression and
grade inequality, and figure
out a way to address it.

university@dailytarheel.com.
through the process of trans-
parency what grades mean
in their particular context and
how different faculty instruc-
tors are grading.
Chris Derickson in the reg-
istrars office said the ultimate
stage of the plan is the imple-
mentation of contextualized
transcripts, though he said
there is no timeline for when
that will begin.
Perrin said the contextual-
ized transcripts and the grad-
ing patterns reports are both
important in understanding
UNCs grading.
I think that combination
is kind of the one-two punch
that should really provide
some real transparency on the
grading here, he said.
Perrin said administrators
will also implement a website

UNCs big bats have been less than stellar lately. Sluggers
Colin Moran and Skye Bolt had rough outings in the ACC
tournament, batting .238 and .261 respectively. In the
Tar Heels last game on Monday, Bolt was replaced in the
cleanup spot by Brian Holberton.
The
Closers
Since earning the closing role midway through the year,
freshman Trent Thornton has earned eight saves two
in UNCs regional alone. With a 1.36 ERA and 17 saves,
senior Tyler Webb is proven. With closers like these two,
expect an early lead to be critical.

T
he state Senates
budget proposal
calls for closing
the Orange Correctional
Center, a minimum-
security prison in
Hillsborough, as part
of a cost-cutting initia-
tive but the move will
prove more costly than the
Senate expects.
The budgets authors
claim that closing the pris-
on, and six others across the
state, is necessary consider-
ing N.C.s declining prison
population. But prison
employees will lose jobs,
and the states prison popu-
lation will lose important
rehabilitation programs.
While declining inmate
numbers in N.C. should
open the floor to discus-
sions on increasing effi-
ciency and cost-effective-
ness in state prisons, the
costs of closing Orange
Correctional will outweigh
any budgetary savings.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATUrED OnlinE rEADEr cOmmEnT
Closer China-US ties
are good for everyone
TO THE EDITOR:
Chinese President Xi
Jinping comes to the United
States today, June 6, for his
first visit as Chinese presi-
dent since coming to power
in March. I believe that the
visit can and will have a
great influence on relations
between China and the U.S.
As a visiting internation-
al scholar and a young per-
son who hopes for a contin-
ued long-term China-U.S.
friendship, as well as
common development and
more shared responsibil-
ity between China and the
United States, I believe the
two countries should work
to deepen mutual under-
standing, expand cultural
exchange and strengthen
cooperation in cultural
industry.
They should increase
the openness and support
for each of their tourism
markets. This can not only
boost both economies and
promote consumption but
increase that kind of peo-
ple-to-people exchange that
can deepen understanding
between cultures as well.
They could increase the
intensity of media coop-
eration between the two
countries by establishing
a cofounded media group,
jointly producing films, TV
shows and documentaries
on history, exchange and
cooperation between the
two countries.
Chinese and American
cultural enterprises should
go abroad, each expanding
investment and develop-
ment in the other nation.
Each government should
provide more incentives
and support to those cul-
tural enterprises. Mutual
investment can create jobs,
take advantage of local
technology and labor and
promote communication
between cultures, bringing
the peoples closer together.
As a citizen of China and
the world, I hope China and

A look
back at
liberal
arts
A
fter four years of papers,
late-night snacks, plan-
ners with to-do lists as
long as the assignments them-
selves and piles of books nestled
behind a mountain of Converses
by the foot of my bed, I find
myself questioning whether
the investment in a traditional
liberal arts degree merited the
out-of-state tuition and never-
ending question: What is it that
you do with an English major?
You can hand me a spread-
sheet, and more than likely, I ll
hand it right back. I have no
investment-banking job lined
up next year, and no consulting
firm in Chicago or New York
awaits my call. I am a woman
lacking the hard skills that
University Career Services so
desires on a resume.
But, with this softening of
curriculum comes a simultane-
ous softening of the heart. The
more we learn, the more we
realize how little we really do
know. There is humility inher-
ent in a liberal arts education
a recognition that self-dis-
covery stems from pondering.
I allocated resources equita-
bly in my public policy and eco-
nomics courses and then strove
to define what equity even
entails. Philosophy, chemistry
and womens studies impart a
sense of interconnectedness,
of inclusiveness, that leaves an
imprint on the students soul.
We learn to love a novels pro-
tagonist by listening to his or
her story, and we adore our fel-
low humans in a parallel fashion
recognizing that you, they
and I are all characters in this
worlds still-unfolding history.
I remember sitting in
Biology 101 my freshman
year, pen flying as I scribbled
to copy Dr. Hogans explana-
tion of mitosis, meiosis and
cytogenesis. As illustrated by
this most scientific of courses,
we exist in a world intricately
interwoven. And with this
interconnectedness comes a
sense of moral responsibility.
I earned a bachelors degree
in English from one of the top
public schools in the nation
but to what end? Mental
energy, shaped by the liberal
arts experience and molded by
the need to constantly mature,
constantly question, is a pre-
cious resource to reallocate in
our obligation to protect our
fellow humans, our codepen-
dents in this ecosystem of life.
Sheer number-crunching
has its merit. But a world
governed by the bottom line
of budgets and spreadsheets
cannot value the beauty of
this world. A well-rounded
liberal arts education produces
citizens and students ready to
think critically and carefully
about the consequences of
their actions.
I accepted my degree with
pride, and I welcome any
lingering questions about my
future. There is no set path for
an English, history, geography,
physics or even a psychology
major but whatever you
do, go forward with a sense of
accountability and acknowl-
edgement that to ponder, to
question and to wonder are
invaluable things indeed.
EDiTOriAl
employs 74 people from
at least six area coun-
ties. The prison supports
other Orange County jobs
through the many educa-
tional programs it offers
in collaboration with local
colleges, nonprofits and
ministries. And with 217
of its 220 beds currently
occupied, the prison is far
from underpopulated.
Less than four years
ago, the state completed
a multimillion-dollar
segregation facility at the
prison for inmates with
behavioral and disciplin-
ary issues. To close Orange
Correctional so soon after
making such an invest-
ment would amount to
wasting taxpayer money.
And for inmates in need
of rehabilitation, the loss
would be critical.
The closure would
transfer inmates to
other prisons, in many
cases further away from
their families in Orange
County. That would make
visitation, an important
element of rehabilita-
tion, more difficult. And
the states response to a
decreased inmate popu-
lation should not be to
risk new overcrowding by
shrinking the number of
facilities.
Orange Correctional
has also worked hard to
develop strong educational
programs to help inmates
find work after release, pro-
grams that would end with
the facility.
In closing the Orange
Correctional Center, the
state would be hindering its
ability to effectively rehabil-
itate inmates. By trimming
prison jobs, facilities and
rehabilitation programs,
the budget would not only
hurt inmates, but the coun-
ties that host prisons.
As the House crafts its
version of the budget this
month, it should consider
cost-saving measures in
public safety that dont
cost inmates and prison
employees. And out of a
more-than-$20-billion
Senate budget, the esti-
mated $2.7 million saved
by closing the Orange
Correctional Center hardly
seems like a long-term
solution.
Closing the county
prison would hurt
more than save.
T
hanks to the N.C.
General Assembly,
the children of our
state are going to leave
elementary school thor-
oughly prepared for life
in 19th-century America,
maybe.
A bill passed last week
will require schools to
teach cursive writing and
multiplication tables by the
end of fifth grade. There
has been no indication that
Gov. Pat McCrory might
veto it, but he should.
Despite how common-
place calculators have
become, one could make
a solid argument for the
importance of basic math-
ematical skills like mental
multiplication.
Mandating training
in cursive, however, is a
waste of time and money.
And unnecessary addi-
tional requirements are
the last thing state educa-
tion needs after all the
cuts the legislature has
already recommended.
In our modern world of
keyboards and texting
where even email seems to
be slowly losing relevance
cursive writing serves
no purpose. Students
quickly lose these penman-
ship skills in middle school
because they are given no
reason to maintain them.
The practical purposes
of cursive are dwindling.
Beyond the required
pledge on the SAT, the only
benefit students might
gain from maintaining
these skills is a better per-
sonal signature or the abil-
ity to forge anothers.
It might seem hypocriti-
cal to attack cursive train-
ing for not being directly
practical while also sup-
porting the liberal arts and
other ventures that arent
oriented toward techni-
cal skills but there is a
basic, fundamental differ-
ence between them.
Training in cursive con-
sists of rote mechanical
learning without any
of the critical thinking or
intellectual stimulation
that comes with other
impractical educational
practices.
Instead of taking even
more time and money
from classrooms all across
the state, North Carolina
should leave those
resources to the educators
themselves.
Standardized testing
and budget constraints
limit teachers enough as
it is. How can we continue
expecting them to fill their
students with a love of
learning and a sense of
civic responsibility if we
never stop piling on man-
dates and restrictions?
Cursives historical
place as a hallmark of
elementary school educa-
tion tells us nothing about
its use or significance for
us in this day and age. We
should not let an antiquat-
ed sense of tradition drag
down our childrens edu-
cation. A concern for their
growth and development
not nostalgia should
be what ultimately guides
policy.
