Textbook law
often difficult
to enforce
By Caroline Leland
Assistant University Editor
Some UNC professors may be breaking a fed-
eral law without realizing it and University
officials say theres not much they can do to
enforce it.
According to the Higher Education
Opportunities Act, any university receiving fed-
eral aid must make public all textbooks used for
every course each semester.
The law requires that information about all
textbooks used in UNC courses be available in
the Universitys Student Stores.
George Morgan, textbook buyer at UNC
Student Stores, said its important for the store
to carry every textbook a student might need,
because some students have scholarship money
that can only be used for textbooks at Student
Stores.
About 43 percent of UNC students received
need-based aid in 2012-13.
Morgan said he places orders for the text-
books requested by professors each semester.
He said professors are responsible for reporting
their textbooks to Student Stores, which is the
official party responsible for keeping track of
and posting the list of textbooks.
But Morgan said its common for profes-
sors to fail to report their textbooks to Student
Stores. Professors might mistakenly assume
that their request rolls over to the next semester,
or they might have difficulty using the Student
Stores online request form, Morgan said.
Sometimes its an honest mistake, Morgan
said.
Kelly Hanner, textbook manager at Student
Stores, said new faculty might not be aware
of the policy. She said its the responsibility of
department chairs to educate faculty about the
policy during orientation.
Morgan said enforcing the policy is tricky
because its hard to find out about textbooks
that are unreported.
He said students sometimes inform Student
Stores of a required textbook not available in
Student Stores, in which case staff members tell

Orange County Board of Election members, director Tracy Reams (left) and secre-
tary Jamie Cox met Tuesday to discuss moving the Rams Head voting place.
Federal law aims to help students
on scholarships buy books.
By Jenny Surane
City Editor
The Orange County Board of
Elections is looking for a new on-
campus UNC voting site for next
years elections after a curbside vot-
ing system failed to appease year-
round Chapel Hill residents.
Members of the board debated
the feasibility of keeping the Rams
Head Dining Hall site as a viable
voting location during its meeting
Tuesday.
During election season, a curb-
side voter can pull up to the parking
deck under Rams Head, and parking
attendants notify voting officials that
the voter is there. Then, the voting
officials bring the voter a ballot.
Voting sites are required to have this
kind of curbside voting for handi-
capped voters.
But Jamie Cox, the boards secre-
tary, said the curbside voting system
at Rams Head wastes too much time
for it to remain a practical voting
site for the precinct.
The only issue with our on-
campus voting site is the curbside
service and making sure it meets
everyones needs, Cox said. Its
difficult with the current system in
place.
The board already approved the
use of Rams Head for the 2013
municipal elections, but Cox said
they are going to consider new
campus sites for the elections in
2014.
Right now, I think we need
another location, said Kathy
Knight, the chairwoman of the
board.
And it needs to be something
that is also conducive to students.
The board is soliciting feedback
from students and residents for
adequate alternative sites on or near
campus.
Student Body President Christy
Lambden said he attended Tuesdays
meeting after fielding concerns that
the board might eliminate early vot-
ing on campus.
I think its great that the board
has a commitment to making sure
students have a place to vote thats
accessible, he said, adding that easy
access for student voters and easy
access for town voters at an early
voting site do not have to be mutu-
ally exclusive.
There are 44 voting precincts in
Orange County, and UNCs campus
is divided between several pre-
cincts.
Ellie Kinnaird, who resigned from
the N.C. Senate Monday, said she
was happy that it seemed like the
board wanted to maintain an on-
campus voting site.
I think that went really well for
us, said Kinnaird, who left her posi-
tion in the Senate to pursue a grass-
roots voting project.
Knight said she has fielded con-
cerns from people who have fol-
lowed the news that county Boards
of Election are eliminating voting
options for college students across
the state.
Earlier this month the Watauga
County Board of Elections elimi-
nated the early voting site and an
election-day polling precinct on
the campus of Appalachian State
University.

Campus police consider gun law
Board of Elections debates on-campus voting site
By John Howell Jr.
Senior Writer
North Carolinas Republican-controlled
state legislature recently passed sweeping
gun reforms allowing concealed handguns
into formerly restricted areas across the
state including university campuses.
House Bill 937, signed into law by
Gov. Pat McCrory on July 29, authorizes
concealed-carry permit holders to bring
handguns onto public school and univer-
sity campuses. The weapons must remain
secured in the trunk or glove box of a
locked vehicle parked in a lot.
UNC-system President Tom Ross opposed
the bill in its early stages, along with all UNC-
system chancellors and campus police chiefs.
In a statement released in April, Ross
said public safety officers may have diffi-
culty distinguishing criminal suspects from
bystanders lawfully wielding guns when
responding to an incident on campus.
The potential for tragedy far outweighs
any potential benefit or convenience to
concealed-carry permit holders, he said.
Randy Young of UNC-CHs Department
of Public Safety said the issue is being stud-
ied by the UNC system, and its premature
to say how the new law will affect students.
Were at a point right now where it
wouldnt be prudent to make any decision
as to exactly how this would be enforced or
approached at UNC, he said.
One of the bills primary sponsors, N.C.
Rep. Jacqueline Schaffer (R-Mecklenburg),

Mandey Brown, owner and bartender at Zogs Pool Hall, said that patrons who bring concealed guns into her bar will be asked to leave.
By Paige Ladisic and Holly West
Assistant City Editors
Mandey Brown said she wasnt surprised
when a couple of customers asked if they
could bring their guns to Zogs Pool Hall
now that its legal.
I think thats going to die down, she
said. I think its more of a show-off.
But Brown, who owns the bar on
Henderson Street, said she wont allow guns
at Zogs. A new law in North Carolina will
allow people with concealed-carry permits
to bring guns into bars, though the bill does
allow businesses to choose to prohibit guns
from their establishment.
Under current law, it is illegal to have a
gun in places where alcohol is sold or con-
sumed. In July, the General Assembly passed
legislation making an exception to that rule
for people with concealed-carry permits. The
changes will go into effect Oct. 1.
I just dont understand why somebody
would need a gun here, Brown said.
Theres really no need. If someone does
bring a gun up here, they will be asked to
leave.
Some other Chapel Hill bar owners
havent worked out what they will do
in response to the new legislation. The
management team at Top of the Hill has
not made a decision about whether they
will allow guns, said floor manager Steve
Torchio.
Torchio said he doesnt think the new law
will cause problems.

The N.C. Attorney Generals
Office is suing a Chapel Hill land-
lord for failing to return security
deposits to his student renters.
N.C. Attorney General Roy
Cooper filed a lawsuit last month
against James Ware Kelley III and
his real estate investment firm Ware
Investments, LLC after at least five
UNC students sued Kelley and his
business for deceptive trade prac-
tices.
Kelley regularly co-mingled stu-
dents security deposits with personal
operating funds, failed to return the
deposits and would contrive dam-
age claims, according to the lawsuit.
Under North Carolina law, a landlord
must keep tenants security deposits
in a separate trust account.
Kelley said his failure to separate
his tenants security deposits from the
rest of his operating funds was a mis-
take. He said the only time he didnt
return his tenants deposits was when
he used them to pay for any damage
the tenants made to his properties.
Noelle Talley, spokeswoman for
the state attorney generals office,
said her office has received com-
plaints related to the case from as
early as 2006.
Talley said at least a dozen stu-
dents have contacted her office
claiming to be victims of Kelley.
I made an honest mistake and no
money is missing, Kelley said.
Kelley said he used a mass-pro-
duced lease from 2007 that he found
on a website for North Carolina
realtors. That lease cited the incor-
rect statutes that define what bank
accounts he was supposed to keep
his money in, Kelley said.
In the suit, Cooper claims that
when tenants challenged Kelley to
return the security deposits, Kelley
cited supposed damage claims as
a reason to not refund the students
money.
Students seeking protection from
landlords should visit Student Legal
Services, said Dorothy Bernholz,
director of UNC Student Legal
Services and the attorney represent-
ing the five UNC students listed in
the lawsuit. Bernholz said documen-
tation is key to ensuring both land-
lords and tenants are treated fairly.
We always advise them when
they sign up for a premise to go
through and do a very careful walk-
through inspection, take photo-
graphs of the condition, she said.
If theres a big hole in the living
room when you move in and you can
prove it, then thats not your respon-
sibility when you move out.
Cooper seeks to return all of the
outstanding security deposits to ten-
ants, the lawsuit states. Cooper also
asked the court to levy a $5,000 pen-
alty against Kelley for each Tenant
Security Deposit Act violation.
Kelley said the total penalties
filed against him would amount to
about $45,000.
Erin Hawley, who graduated
from UNC in May, began renting
an apartment on Isley Street from
Kelley last August. After her lease
ended in July, she and her two
roommates expected to see their
$1,410 security deposit returned to
them in a timely manner.
Instead, Kelley deposited their
security deposit into a regular check-
ing account versus the mandated
trust account, the lawsuit states.
I am informed by former ten-
ants of James Kelley that he has a
reputation for withholding tenants
security deposits, Hawley said in
her affidavit. I am concerned about
the security of my funds.
Hawley said Kelley still has time
to return her security deposit, but
she filed the affidavit with the attor-
ney generals lawsuit just in case she
had trouble getting her funds back.
He still has time to get my secu-
rity deposit back since my lease
recently ended, but I decided to ask
for legal advice based on hearsay,
Hawley said.

BOG sees changes in board makeup
By Kate Caison
Staff Writer
Following Sen. Ellie Kinnairds (D-Orange)
resignation Monday, the N.C. Democratic
Party must find a replacement for one of the
most liberal voices in the state legislature.
Kinnaird, who has served 17 years in the
N.C. Senate, had said that she wanted a
woman to take her seat. And at least a few
women are already considering stepping up.
An executive committee composed of
Democratic officials from Orange and
Chatham counties will select an appointee,
who will be confirmed by Gov. Pat McCrory.
That person would serve until December.
Alice Bordsen, a former representative
from Alamance County who served in the
N.C. House of Representatives for a decade, is
entering the selection process for Kinnairds
vacated seat.
At Kinnairds request, Bordsen sent a letter
to the committee indicating her willingness to
complete her longtime friends term.
Bordsen decided not to run for re-election for
2013 because of her frustration with redistrict-
ing. She said she is able to take on the job.
I have a deep involvement with Orange
County and a longtime friendship with Sen.
Kinnaird, Bordsen said. I think that because
of that connection, I certainly have the abil-
ity to step into the job without any learning
curve.
Bordsen said that until the seat is filled, the
constituent work will not be done.
Her service will certainly be missed, she said.
The N.C. Democratic Party Press Secretary
Micah Beasley said the loss of a female senator
would contribute to the lack of female repre-
sentation in the N.C. legislature.
According to the National Conference of
State Legislatures, about 23 percent of N.C.
legislators are female.
We certainly need more female voices (at
every level of politics), Beasley said. Alice
Bordsen would be a talented person to draw
on if she chose to seek the appointment.
Rep. Valerie Foushee (D-Orange) told The
Daily Tar Heel Monday that she might be
interested in the position but has not made
any final decisions.
Rep. Verla Insko, the other Democrat repre-
senting Orange County, has decided not to run
for the position.
I am very happy where I am, Insko said.
I have a lot of responsibility in the House as
a senior member. I am committed to that, and
that is where I belong.
Kinnaird resigned to work on voter rights
issues after the legislature passed a bill to require
a government-issued photo ID for voters.
We are certainly sad to see her go, but
it is such a commendable course of action,

Politicians step forward for Kinnairds seat
Beasley said. It is critical to have leaders like
Sen. Kinnaird willing to devote their time and
energy to combatting these measures.
Beasley said the next senator must be pre-
pared to take a firm stance against the poli-
cies that have come out of the Republican-led
legislature.
We have to have someone who is a fighter
for the middle class, he said. We have to have
someone stand up against this Republican
legislature to fight for everything that built
North Carolina and fight for the values that we
stand for.

The 16 new members of the UNC-
system Board of Governors were
sworn in early this month and are
ready to get to work but some stu-
dent groups are apprehensive.
The members were recently elect-
ed by the N.C. General Assembly,
leading some critics to charge that
the board is increasingly becoming
an extension of the Republican-
dominated state government.
Campus Pride, a Charlotte-based
student advocacy group, is concerned
the board, which is largely composed
of white males, does not represent the
diverse system population and makes
decisions based on political ideology.
It is a board of people with only
one viewpoint, said Romeo Jackson,
a member of Campus Pride. It is
creating a culture of student voices
being shut out.
Hannah Gage, emeritus member
of the board and former chairwom-
an, said although the current board
may seem homogenous, minority
members are not afraid to speak out.
I would prefer a more diverse
board with more females and
minorities than we have, she said.
That being said, we do have women
and we do have African-Americans
and they are not shy people.
Champ Mitchell, a new board
member, said it is unusual to have
so many new members at one time,
and he expects the board to begin
taking the initiative more often.
My experience with (the new
members) is that these are people
who want to roll up their sleeves and
address these issues, he said.
Mitchell said one of the big issues
is in-state undergraduate tuition,
which he said is too high and the
board should look in to reducing it.
Marty Kotis, another new board
member, said the new members
have a fresh perspective as many
have business backgrounds.
But other university groups,
including the North Carolina Vision
Coalition, still want more direct
communication with the board.
The coalition was formed around

perspectives to the board.

concern about the lack of outside
input during the creation of the
five-year strategic plan, said Zach
Bijesse, a member of the coalition at
the time. The coalition wrote a peti-
tion to the board in April asking for
additional seating and a public com-
ment section at board meetings for
system students and employees.
The system Association of Student
Governments president, a nonvot-
ing member of the board, represents
students, said Joni Worthington,
spokeswoman for the system.
Gage said the system hosts open
meetings on campuses, but students
are often unaware or dont pay atten-
tion to what is going on, and only
contribute to important issues when
they are winding down to a close.
Its really hard because campuses
were making various decision meet-
ings that were important without
(students), she said.
Robert Nunnery, president of
ASG, said the board has always been
receptive to student opinion.
Some board members even look
to me because I am the only student
on the board, Nunnery said.
Gage said the boards decisions
while not always popular have
always been moderate.
The reason the University is suc-
cessful is that the sensible center is
where we land in everything we
have done, she said.
But Jackson said he believes the
board is unbudgingly conservative.
Whether it be gender-neutral
housing, the tuition or athletics, the
BOG will feel a backlash and it will
not be good for the University as a
whole, he said.
Brad Wilson, who served as chair-
man of the board from 2002-06, said
students should hold their opinions
because the new members on the
board have only met once.
Lets give everyone an opportu-
nity to demonstrate how they are
going to operate and not rush to any
judgment, Wilson said.
Kotis said he thinks the new
members will be more vocal.
Were new, and were wanting to
learn a lot about the University, and
were asking questions and ques-
tioning why a lot of times rather
than just accepting things, we want
to understand why, Kotis said.

the color palette in a town
that bleeds Carolina blue.
Mary Carter Taub created
a piece of installation art on a
Chapel Hill Transit bus. The
Mobile Mural in an array of
colorful, intersecting stripes
was inspired by a map of
Chapel Hill and Carrboros
bus routes.
(The design) is then over-
laid with my version of road
mark patterns that you see on
streets and highways, such as
double yellow lines, dotted
yellow lines and zebra stripes
in pedestrian crosswalks, she
said.
The piece is part of the
Downtown Art Program,
which is a Chapel Hill-wide
effort to bring in local and
public art to enhance and
brighten the downtown envi-
ronment.
When the project was
proposed, possible canvases
for this mural included bus
shelters and parking lots. But
the Downtown Art Program
and Taub, who specializes in
installation art, agreed that a
bus was a great way to show-
case artwork while integrat-
ing it into the community.
Public art is very appeal-
ing to me because it is pre-
sented in the public arena,
outside of the traditional
museum and gallery network,
allowing access to a broader
audience, she said.
A Chapel Hill Transit bus
was the best option to reach a
wide net of folks.
It is very exciting to create
a work that blends aesthetics
with a practical or utilitarian
need, she said.
Steve Wright, Chapel
Hills public art coordinator,
who worked with Taub on
the mural, said he finds her
work to be a perfect example
of art blended with the com-
munity.
She creates entire envi-
ronments installations
in storefronts, cafes, buses,
he said. She goes beyond
the typical ideas of art as
a painting on a wall or a
sculpture.
Taub created the Mobile
Mural out of different colors
of duct tape over a pencil
sketch of the transit routes.
She has constructed past
installations out of other
common materials, such as
sticky notes.
I enjoy responding to
and shaping space, she
said.
I especially like unconven-
tional spaces as they provide
interesting physical con-
straints.
Taub said she prefers
community-based projects
because they allow her to use
both her left and right brain.
It allows me to flex my
business muscles and utilize
my project management skills
all under the umbrella of
making art the best of both
worlds, she said.
The vinyl-wrapped bus,
which Taub considers part of
the 2.0 version of her career
as an installation artist, will
be in service until February
2014.
UNC students, such as
sophomore Kelly Duffy, have
already noticed the difference
the bus makes in the campus
surroundings.
Everything in Chapel Hill
is about the school and none

of it is about art, Duffy said.
I think the bus is a great way
to incorporate art into every-
day life in Chapel Hill.
Taubs goal is to continue
pursuing public art projects
with a greater community
emphasis. She said her instal-
lations, in addition to giving
art to community, give com-
munity to her.
One perk to making pub-
lic art is that I meet so many
different types of people,
she said. I especially enjoy
the casual conversations and
spontaneous social interac-
tions that arise during the
public art process.

Recruitment up at 2013 FallFest
A Chapel Hill bus
displays local
installation art.
By Janell Smith
Staff Writer
Approximately 25,000
students strolled up and
down South Road to take part
in the Universitys biggest
welcome-back event, enjoying
free food and clear skies.
This years FallFest, an
annual Week of Welcome
event that offers hundreds
of clubs and organizations
the chance to publicize their
work and recruit new stu-
dents, took place without a
single drop of rain, despite a
forecast that had organizers
worried.
Last year, FallFest was
cancelled due to rain, so this
time around both freshmen
and sophomores were able to
experience the event for the
first time.
Lauren Sacks, assistant
director of student learning
at the Student Union, said at
any given time in the evening
roughly 14,000 students
could be found at the event.
Sacks said between
$60,000 and $70,000 was
spent on security, labor and
production costs. She said the
Student Union did not spend
money on food or a consider-
able amount on vendors all
of the food provided was
donated.
In 2011, the Student Union
spent $54,000 on the event.
Karen Cunningham , direc-
tor of marketing and special
events at Campus Recreation,
said student turnout this year
was more than she anticipated.
The campus rec had over
2,000 people join our listserv,
Cunningham said. Honestly,
I was only expecting 1,200
students to join a number
which we far exceeded.
Cunningham said Campus
Recreation was able to give
away $7,000 in swag prizes.
Personally, it is one of
my favorite events at the
University, she said. Its just
so great to see new students
at FallFest and to see the
excitement it generates.
She said she thought the
event was a huge success
because the turnout not only
benefitted new students, but
clubs and vendors as well.
In response to last years
cancellation of FallFest, the
organizing committee devised
a backup plan that would
move the event inside of
Fetzer Hall gyms A and B in
the event of rain.
Sacks said she was glad the
backup plan wasnt put into
action.
While it would have
been great to be able to give
the opportunity (to attend
FallFest) to student groups
rain or shine (and) to
tell others about co-curric-
ular possibilities, the indoor
nature of the event would
have limited the scope, and
the event is just such a great
one to have outside, she said
in an email.
Kathleen Hayes , president
of Students for Students
International , said the club
along with many other
campus groups had diffi-
culty recruiting members last
year in the wake of FallFests
cancellation.
Hayes said the club had
to spend more time reaching
out to students and establish-
ing personal relationships to
attract enough members.
It was difficult to recruit
members because students
werent coming out and seek-
ing us, Hayes said. We had
to find alternative ways to
reach students.
But Hayes said the group
was able to reach at least
140 students at FallFest. She
said she was surprised at the
number of juniors who joined
their listserv.
Its nice to see that even
upperclassmen were inter-
ested in joining new organi-
zations, Hayes said. Thats
what is great about FallFest,
everyone has the chance to
explore and expand their
interests.

UNC, Duke alumni
create bar tab app
By Corinne Jurney
Staff Writer
Students looking to beat
the back-to-school blues with
a cold beer can also beat the
lines at certain bars by down-
loading a new app.
TabSprint shortens the
paying process at bars, which
can be lengthy when the bar
is full. The app allows bar
guests to use smartphones
to view menus and specials
and to select drinks. To pay,
customers present their order
on their smartphone to the
bartender, who can then close
the tab with the touch of a
finger.
The creators of the
app, UNC alumnus John
Chipouras and Duke alumnus
Grant Warman, wanted to
help customers bypass the
lines at bars.
And several local bars
including Top of the Hill
Restaurant and Brewery,
Steel String Craft Brewery,
The Standard Restaurant and
Bar and The Library are
now using TabSprint. The
app is also available at venues
in Raleigh and Durham, and
Chipouras and Warman are
hoping to soon expand app
availability to Charlotte.
After paying a fee to
TabSprint, a bar is eligible to
use the app.
Bartenders spend 60
percent of their time using
the Point of Sale system,
Chipouras said, adding that
he hopes his app will help
streamline business at bars
particularly on Thursday
through Saturday nights
when bars are especially busy.
This allows the bartender
to serve more customers
faster, Chipouras said.
Each drink order is a
separate credit card charge
and includes a tip with each
purchase. The default tip
per order is $1, which can be
increased or decreased by the
user.
Andrew Scharfenberg, co-
owner of Steel String Craft
Brewery, said the app makes
serving guests easier on busy
nights. Steel String has been
using the app for more than
two months. Scharfenberg
said he uses the app when
he visits his own bar and has
heard bar guests describe it as
intriguing and useful.
Bartenders dont have to
print the ticket, get it signed,
keep up with it and later enter
the tip it takes that work
away, Scharfenberg said.
The credit card number
is preprogrammed into the
users phone so bar guests are
spared the hassle that ensues
when they forget their credit
cards at the bar, Chipouras
said.
Some potential users
might be uneasy about
entering credit card infor-
mation, Scharfenberg said.
But TabSprint sends users a
report the following morn-
ing with a list of the previous
nights charges.
Drink menus and specials
are listed on the app, which
can help guide bar-goers
night. Incentives are also
offered for new users, such as
a $5 credit.
UNC junior Caroline
Pittman had not previously
heard of TabSprint but said
she is eager to download it.
I cant count the number
of times Ive left my card at
the bar, and this app would
definitely prevent that from
happening, Pittman said. I'd
love that to become popular
in Chapel Hill.

Emphasizing electronic media in a time
when it is absolutely necessary to do so
Too many times the DTH has dedicated itself
to increasing its online and multimedia pres-
ence, but this year I promise you it will actually
happen.
we have completely revamped our multi-
media desk to consistently generate videos up
to five times a week, and we are in the midst
of a website redesign that will be finished this
school year, no excuses.
In the ever-changing world of media, The
Daily Tar Heel needs to adapt to meet our
audiences needs.
with a stronger emphasis on online-exclu-
sive content and production that meets this
generations craving for new and improved, we
can push the DTH to the level it needs to be at.
Recruiting and utilizing a staff that comes
from everywhere, not just Carroll Hall
In order to put out the best paper possible,
we need the best team we can get.
There are so many talented students at unC
that come from outside the journalism school
and span across many different majors that are
untapped and may not know about opportu-
nities to work at the DTH.
I say come one, come all. Grad students, we
want you here. Computer science majors, reli-
gious studies majors, biology majors, classics
majors theres no limit on the diverse per-
spectives we can recruit to work at our office
on rosemary street.
Its great that many of us are pursuing a
degree in journalism, but we also need to have
a staff that represents the student body.
Responsible for ensuring the paper
is meeting its public service
mission, mainly through oversight
of long-term projects.

to stop an Elizabeth City State

his on-campus address

Knight said she didnt want

a discussion about moving

This board is nonpartisan,

think they are a trustworthy
person and they have it there
with them for a reason.
Senior Myeshia Floyd said
allowing guns in bars might
get out of hand if people dont
know how to limit themselves
while drinking.
I dont think its a good
idea, only because that opens
Pandoras box and people can
abuse it, she said.
Jeremy Ferry, general man-
ager of Carolina Coffee Shop,
said he is opposed to allowing
guns in bars.
People do not make ratio-
nal decisions when theyre
under the influence, he said.
Theyre not allowed to drive,
so why should they be allowed
to operate a firearm?
Ferry said he doesnt know
what his policy will be.
It doesnt pose as much of
a problem for an establish-
ment like this one.
Chris Carini, owner of
Lindas Bar and Grill on
Franklin Street, said people
with permits arent the prob-
lem.
The person with a con-
cealed-carry permit obviously
has gone through the ringer
to get it, he said.
But what if somebody
gets it from them? If theres
a fight, theres a tussle and
their gun gets taken from
them from somebody who
is trained and authorized to
somebody who is not.
Carini, who said he wont
allow people to bring guns
into his bar, said the changes
to the law will probably
increase the number of people
who bring their guns to bars
statewide, but not necessarily
in Chapel Hill.
I dont think Chapel Hill
is a good place to really say
anything like that because its
not like a huge gun (owner)
population, Carini said.

said concealed-carry permit
holders have gone through an
extensive application process
and have demonstrated they
are law-abiding citizens.
I would certainly say that
its not going to introduce a
harmful situation. If anything
its contributing to higher
safety, she said.
Paul Valone, president of
pro-gun rights group Grass
Roots North Carolina, said
expanding firearm laws in
the state will result in a dra-
matic drop in campus crime
rates.
Schaffer said those who are
intent on committing crimi-
nal acts generally disregard
the states gun laws.
Gun criminals dont care
what areas are restricted or
not, theyre taking guns there
regardless, she said.
Still, firearms on university
campuses make some uneasy.
UNC-CH senior Ronit
Nuguru said he doesnt agree
with the law. He said the
weapons could be abused in
the wrong hands.
Theres always a small
chance that something bad
might happen, he said.
Gail Neely, executive direc-
tor for North Carolinians
Against Gun Violence, said
this law creates the opportu-
nity for violent crime.
When 75 percent of the
reported crimes on campus
are car break-ins, why do you
want to put loaded guns in
them? she said.
Neely said there will be
repercussions from the law.
I wouldnt send my child
to a public school knowing
that there are loaded guns in
the parking lot, she said.
Schaffer said the new
law upholds the Second
Amendment.
Were taking really impor-
tant steps to cut down on
gun crime and to increase the
penalties on gun criminals
while maintaining and fur-
ther protecting the rights of
law-abiding citizens.

We think its great, Packer
said. We think thats progress.
Packer said she did not
know that professors were
required to make their text-
books available through
Student Stores.
Ive never had anybody
complain about it, she said.
Economics professor Gary
Biglaiser also said he wasnt
aware of the policy and has
observed that students prefer
to buy textbooks through
other vendors.
Most students dont buy
from Student Stores because
its expensive, he said.
Evelyne Huber, chairwoman
of the political science depart-
ment, said she does what
she can to enforce the policy
among the faculty under her.
In our department we
circulate the emails from the
bookstores with the numbers
on who has reported, and we
urge them to do that, she said.
Some professors might
assign books from sources
outside of Student Stores,
such as local bookstores,
in order to support the
community, said Katie
Yow, a co-manager at the
Internationalist Books
and Community Center on
Franklin Street.
Yow said its important for
students to have alternative
sources for textbooks. She
said professors with commu-
nity-oriented classes often
direct students to buy text-
books from Internationalist
Books, a nonprofit, volunteer-
run bookshop.
Textbooks represent a
small but very important part
of our overall sales, she said
in an email. We work directly
with progressive professors
who want to give their stu-
dents the option to have their
textbook purchases support
the Internationalist.

After months of delay,
Carrboros first hotel could
open as soon as Friday.
Were hoping to open
either Friday or the following
Monday, said Manish Atma,
president of the hotels man-
ager Atma Hotel Group.
He said the Hampton Inn
& Suites must pass a few
more town and corporate
inspections before it can open
its doors.
Then its just a matter of
putting the final touches on
the project, like decorating
and cleaning the hotel, Atma
said.
Its been a long process,
Atma said. When were get-
ting to the finishing stages,
its always fun.
The hotel, located in
Carrboros 300 East Main
development, was originally
slated to open in May.
However, heavy rainfall
this summer caused delays in
construction.
But it needs to be finished
soon, because Atma said
guests have made reserva-
tions starting Aug. 30.
Were actually booked up
for Labor Day weekend, he
said.
Laurie Paolicelli, execu-
tive director for the Chapel
Hill/Orange County Visitors
Bureau, said she is optimistic
that the hotel will open in
time.
Weve toured it, and they
look very close, she said.
Raleigh-based Taxi Taxi
plans to bring its hybrid
Prius taxis to Chapel Hill and
Carrboro sometime this year.
Laurie Paolicelli, execu-
tive director of the Orange
County/Chapel Hill Visitors
Bureau, said people in the
community are excited about
getting more eco-friendly
transportation.
Its the only provider we
have where their whole fleet
is hybrid, she said. It defi-
nitely meets who we are as a
sustainable community.
Fred Platt, the general
manager for Taxi Taxi, said
his company wants to provide
customers with the best ser-
vice possible, which includes
ensuring their security.
The taxis have backseat
credit card machines so cus-
tomers can process their own
payment. They also have both
interior and exterior surveil-
lance cameras.
Customers can download
the Taxi Magic app to reserve
and pay for their taxi.
The app also allows users
to track the cab theyve
reserved.
Were not your typical cab
company, Platt said.
Platt said the background
checks run on Taxi Taxis driv-
ers search national databases
instead of just those in the
state.
We are going to catch
anyone who may have slipped
under the radar, he said.
The Mediterranean restau-
rant Hummus Cafe, has taken
over a location on Franklin
Street formerly occupied by
the popular eatery Hot Dogs
& Brew.
Chris McCracken, who was
general manager of Hot Dogs
& Brew, said the concept did
not work for the more-than-
1,800-square-foot space.
He said the restaurant
got a lot of business from
students late at night, but it
wasnt enough.
To be successful on
Franklin Street, you have
to serve more than just stu-
dents, he said.
The limited menu was also
a problem.
Hot dogs alone could not
support the size of the restau-
rant, he said. That concept
could be supported in a space
a third of the size than we
were occupying.
McCracken is also involved
in the new restaurant. He said
Hummus Cafe would attract
diners at all times of the day
because of its variety.
We felt like it needed to be
more of a concept that would
cater to lunch, dinner and
possibly late night, versus a
one-dimensional product like
hot dogs, he said.
McCracken said Hot Dogs
& Brew could reopen as a
food truck or in a smaller res-
taurant space in the future.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
FEATUrED OnlinE rEADEr cOmmEnT
NC needs to draw
focus from TFA
TO THE EDITOR:
As a future educator,
the article about the state
budget favoring Teach For
America left me with a lot
to say.
Even though the Teach
for America program
provides bodies in the
classroom, I think it
undermines the teaching
profession.
The Teach for America
recipients spend six weeks
in the summer trying to
learn what we education
students learn in over two
years.
In addition, they are
put in some of the worst
schools in the state with
very little training or sup-
port.
It sends the message that
going to a university to get
a teaching degree is point-
less.
The teaching profession
is already looked down
upon, and this only deval-
ues it more.
By supporting Teach
for America instead of
programs like Teaching
Fellows, the North Carolina
General Assembly is saying
that they are looking for
a short-term fix to North
Carolinas educational sys-
tem instead of long-term,
which is what the state
really needs.
North Carolina is ranked
46th in the nation for per-
capita spending on public
schools and 48th in the
nation for teacher pay.
The support for Teach
for America instead of the
Teaching Fellows program,
lack of bonuses for teach-
ers with masters degrees,
and denial of a salary raise
in over six years is sending
a loud message to future
teachers of North Carolina:
that we are not going to be
valued.
North Carolina has been
my home for 20 years, but
if the education system
does not improve, I, along
with many other passionate
and qualified teachers, will
have to leave to find some-
where that appreciates the
profession.

Education
University needs
more than Lambden
TO THE EDITOR:
Although I am glad
that Christy Lambden is
receiving due applause for
his tireless and hopefully
effective efforts as student
body president, I object
to the DTHs uncritical
treatment of this summers
Sexual Assault Task Force
in recent days.
It is important to
keep in mind that the
task force was called not
merely for the Universitys
mishandling of several
sexual assault cases but the
Universitys repeated mis-
treatment of sexual assault
survivors.
Lambden has done an
estimable job of keeping in
mind the concerns raised

Please
dont
stop and
frisk me
A
lthough it may not be
a direct form, New
Yorks stop-and-frisk
law is a form of racial profiling
by unfairly targeting the citys
men of color.
In New York City, the New
York Police Departments
stop-and-frisk policies allow
for officers to stop thousands
of law-abiding citizens every
year under the pretense of
reasonable suspicion, with
the majority of these resi-
dents being either black or
Latino.
According to 2012 NYPD
reports, New York residents
were stopped by the police
532,911 times. In those cases,
473,644 were completely inno-
cent. Fifty-five percent of the
innocent residents were black
and 32 percent were Latino.
The data also showed that
nine out of 10 New Yorkers
who were stopped were com-
pletely innocent.
Although the reasoning for
the stop-and-frisk policy is
being attributed to crime being
committed in low-income
areas, there is no doubt that
stopping thousands of law-
abiding citizens is not a rea-
sonable policy for lowering
crime rates.
The stop-and-frisk law
was challenged in a federal
class action lawsuit, Floyd et
al. v. City of New York et al .
In it, a number of plaintiffs
claimed that the city, along
with numerous defendants,
was unconstitutionally stop-
ping and frisking people of
color.
Last week, federal judge
Shira Scheindlin ruled that the
NYPD was liable for a pattern
of racial profiling and that the
stop-and-frisks were unconsti-
tutional.
However, New York City
Mayor Michael Bloomberg
has publicly indicated that the
city would possibly appeal the
ruling.
The law is completely
unjust. Regardless of low
income, high crime or any rea-
soning that is cited, it is a vio-
lation of the 14th Amendment
to single out particular groups
of people on the basis of race.
The stop-and-frisk policy in
New York does just that.
A policy like this makes the
assumption that those that live
in low-income areas are more
likely to commit crimes.
The controversy in New
York is in many ways similar
to a local lawsuit in North
Carolina. In Alamance County,
the U.S. Justice Department
ruled that Latinos were
unfairly targeted as a part of
the sheriff s offices search for
illegal immigrants.
As much progress as we have
made as a nation in the past 151
years, it is evident that we do
not live in a post-racial society.
I would love to think that
policies like the stop-and-frisk
law have nothing to do with
race, but the statistics alone
show otherwise. When or if the
day comes that race is not a
factor, a law like this could be
justifiably upheld .
In the meantime, this
should not happen and citi-
zens should continue to ques-
tion the law enforcement and
government on how and why
these policies are effective.
Hopefully Mayor Bloomberg
and the city of New York soon
recognize that these discrimi-
natory tactics violate ones civil
rights.

by members of his student-
led task force in the spring.
However, I find the
DTHs claim that any
individual can adequately
represent the interests
and experiences of the
Universitys entire student
body dangerous, not to
mention dishonest.
Christy Lambden
deserves to be rewarded for
his great work, but repre-
sentation of the general stu-
dent body on this particular
task force is less important
than survivor representa-
tion.
After all, people have
filed high-profile lawsuits
against this University for
representing the interests
of students who perpe-
trate sexual assault at the
expense of those who sur-
vive sexual assault.
Finally, advocacy is
work that everyone should
do. Advocacy requires
patient listening, vision
and endless self-critique,
but leads to real changes
in behavior, attitude and
policy.
In short, although
Christy Lambden may
not be able to bring your
perspective to every appro-
priate situation, you can
definitely emulate the good
things he has done so far
during his term.

TO THE EDITOR:
An amendment pro-
posed by Rep. Amash
(R-Mich.) in the House
of Representatives was
recently defeated by a nar-
row margin, 205-217.
Of the representatives
from North Carolina, only
four voted in its favor.
If passed, the amend-
ment would have denied
funding for the National
Security Agencys blanket
collection of the phone
records from everyone in
the United States, restrict-
ing its reach only to those
records that pertain to
persons under active inves-
tigation.
The defeat of this
amendment should be of
concern to all.
The federal govern-
ments collection of
information on every
single Americans activ-
ity, without regard for the
establishment of probable
cause, is a violation of our
individual rights, in blatant
disregard of the Fourth
Amendment. The general
warrants of King George
III were nothing compared
to what our own govern-
ment is perpetrating every
day upon its own citizens.
Despite the defeat of this
specific piece of legislation,
it is not too late to voice
your concern.
Call, write or meet
with your representative
and senators during their
August recess.
Urge them to oppose the
ongoing surveillance of mil-
lions of innocent citizens
and residents.

A
fter a summer
that saw torrential
rains devastate
parts of North Carolina,
Gov. Pat McCrory, along
with the American Red
Cross, has made it a
priority to help the com-
munity through disaster
relief.
Gov. McCrory issued
a disaster declaration in
order to aid victims, who
failed to qualify for fed-
eral loans from the Small
Business Administration.
Dependent on indi-
vidual financial situa-
tions, affected homeown-
ers could be eligible for
30-year loans of up to
Local disaster relief
EDiTOriAl
$200,000 to repair or
replace damaged build-
ings, and up to $40,000
for ruined clothing, appli-
ances and other personal
property.
Similarly, affected
businesses and nonprofit
organizations can apply
for up to $2 million in
loans.
These benefits that the
Chapel Hill and Carborro
community will receive
will far exceed the dollar
amount.
McCrory has made it
the governments primary
concern to do everything
that it can to ease the pain
of victims, while also com-
pensating for the destruc-
tion of peoples lives as
best it can.
In addition to Gov.
McCrorys efforts, Stan
Morris the executive
director of the central
North Carolina chapter of
the American Red Cross
cannot be overlooked.
Morris and the Red
Cross, along with its
partners, are continu-
ing to ensure that those
affected by the flooding
have access to housing,
clothing, medical aid and
counseling where it is
needed.
While recent bud-
get cuts have seemingly
become the norm, it is
clear that Gov. McCrory
has emphasized disaster
relief.
Hopefully this example
of leadership in a time of
need will establish a prec-
edent going forward, par-
ticularly with the strug-
gling economy.
Disaster relief plan
exemplifies
leadership.
F
ollowing the suc-
cessful ousting of
proposed voter reg-
istration laws this spring,
UNC-system students
will now face another new
challenge by way of vote
registration picture identi-
fication forms.
The new forms attack
the voting abilities of stu-
dents.
The bill, signed into
law last week, requires a
state-approved photo ID
to vote in a polling place
and shortens the avail-
able time for early voting.
The new law is reportedly
intended to suppress voter
fraud.
Let the students vote
EDiTOriAl
This comes shortly after
a controversial Supreme
Court decision to do away
with the provision of the
1965 Voting Rights Act
which previously required
states to obtain federal
approval before amending
their voting laws.
Regardless of residency,
all students were previ-
ously able to register as
N.C. voters.
The previous law
allowed out-of-state stu-
dents to choose between
voting as a resident of
their home state or North
Carolina. In order to do
this now, out-of-state stu-
dents must obtain a valid
photo ID from the state.
Unfortunately, the UNC
OneCard is not on the list
of N.C.-approved photo
identification.
The new law makes
the process of voting in
Chapel Hill as an out-of-
state student significantly
more difficult.
Though not as severe
as the attempted attack
earlier this spring on
N.C. voting rights, this
legislation still dimin-
ishes the voting leverage
of North Carolinian uni-
versities.
Such universities have
provided markedly lib-
eral voting bases in a
Republican-controlled
state for some time.
At a time when states
have only recently recov-
ered the ability to adjust
voting laws, this biased
law places North Carolina
at the forefront of reasons
why the Supreme Court
was wrong.
Voter ID law
restricts rights
of students.
T
he recent reversal
of gender-neutral
housing by the
UNC Board of Governors
was a blow not only to
Carolinas LGBTQ com-
munity but an insult to the
entire student body.
By meeting over the
summer, when few stu-
dents remain in town,
the BOG went behind
the backs of the student
activists who fought for
gender-neutral housing
and stifled their voices in
coming to the final deci-
sion.
This was a cruel misuse
of the boards power and a
disrespectful way to treat
Shutting students out
EDiTOriAl
student activism, regard-
less of the BOGs final
decision.
Last fall, students had
the opportunity to give
presentations and hold
discussions concerning
their reasons for support-
ing gender-neutral hous-
ing.
This inclusion of stu-
dent voices led to the
unanimous approval of
the housing plan but
the BOG didnt seek out
student voices this sum-
mer, or take part in dis-
cussions with students last
fall.
The reversal of the
decision so soon before
the beginning of the fall
semester left four students
who had planned to live
in gender-neutral housing
scrambling to find other
accommodations.
They have now been
placed in on- or off-cam-
pus housing.
The BOG went com-
pletely against what stu-
dents want and need for
their comfort on campus
its hard to perform well
in school when your hous-
ing situation causes stress
and discomfort.
Next time, those pass-
ing legislation that affects
students should have the
decency to include those
that are directly affected
in the discussion.
The Board of Governors
should understand that
students arent going to
stop fighting for their
safety. They will always be
ready to sit down and have
a serious, candid conver-
sation.
The BOG should
start listening to
activist voices.
