to the next level. Theres a lot of difference in moving down that bench about 10 or 12 inches, Hatchell said. The assistant who preceded Smith, Sylvia Crawley, is now entering her third season at the helm for Boston College. Hatchell estimated that about 10 of her former players, including Smith and Crawley, are coaching in some capacity at the collegiate level. That network of coaches is likely the direct result of the philosophy Hatchell has tried to instill in the Tar Heel basketball program. The head coach looks to not only prepare her players to excel on the court, but also to equip them with the knowledge necessary to impact the game long after their playing careers are over. As Hatchell phrases it, she wants the program to be where eagles are trained and then released to soar. For aspiring head coach Trisha Stafford-Odom, that sort of philosophy and the educational environment Hatchell promotes were enough to draw her away from her assistant coaching position at Duke and into the role vacated by Smith. With her connections and her knowledge and her support and knowing what my intentions are, she has definitely signed on to develop me into all that I need to be, Stafford-Odom said. I feel like under her tutelage, Ill grow leaps and bounds. Spending the last two seasons with the Blue Devils, StaffordOdom has only been able to view the Tar Heels from afar. But in the short time since she joined the UNC staff Aug. 24, the inner workings of the program have already made an impression on her. Im here like a kid in a candy store and Im absorbing it like a recruit, Stafford-Odom said. And its fun for me because I have total admiration and respect for this place. Before her two-year tenure at

Charlotte Smith spent nine years as assistant womens basketball coach at UNC and is the new head coach at Elon University.

As Charlotte Smith transitions into her new role as head womens basketball coach at Elon University, she knows her old head coach and No. 1 mentor is only a short drive away. In fact, North Carolina coach Sylvia Hatchell has already received a few phone calls from her former assistant. One night she called me and left me a message, and she says, Im driving back from Elon, and I just wanted to tell you that I had no idea that there was so much to being a head coach, said Hatchell, who has gotten similar responses from other assistants who have stepped up

Duke, Stafford-Odom served as an assistant coach at UCLA for three years where she quickly proved herself adept at recruiting. In her best year at UCLA, Stafford-Odom drew a No. 3 class, and she went on to recruit consecutive top-five classes during her time at Duke including the No. 1 class for the 2009-10 season. For a UNC team that has lost senior leaders Jessica Breland, Italee Lucas and Cetera DeGraffenreid, Stafford-Odoms recruiting talents could expedite the rebuilding process. Thats a win-win for us,

The institutions on the front lines of the Universitys budget struggles are feeling the persistent pain associated with drastic cuts. For these specialized centers, budget cuts are nothing new. Many have sustained doubledigit cuts for years. But the latest round has rendered some incapable of meeting past standards of outreach and activity. Its like trying to put together two nickels to make a quarter, said Joseph Jordan, director of the Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History, one of several centers slashed by more than 20 percent this year. For the Institute of African American Research, the cuts nearly proved fatal. Fatimah Jackson, former director of the institute, said in an email that the provosts office threatened to shut down the institute in early summer but reversed its decision in midJune. The institute was dealt nearly a 40 percent budget cut this year after surviving a 52 percent cut in 2010 that Jackson said permanently denied it the ability to hire full-time staff. I anticipate that this years budget cuts will continue to have an adverse effect on the quality and quantity of programs that the (institute) is able to initiate, Jackson wrote in the email. Carol Tresolini, associate provost for academic initiatives, said the initial decision to eliminate the institute came because administrators didnt

know if all of the centers would be able to be preserved. The state legislature laid out the criteria to be followed when allocating budget cuts, Tresolini said. Reducing funding for centers and institutes was at the top of the list, she said, adding that the legislature dictated the need for disproportionate cuts to these areas. Tresolini said administrators took into account the ability of centers to solicit funding from other sources on and off campus. The Stone Center was forced to do just that. The centers leaders assumed the cuts would be ongoing and have been planning for them during the past three years, Jordan said. The cuts have reduced the centers staff and increased its need to work with other departments on campus. Its not easy because other departments dont have a lot of money either, Jordan said. Its not a solution but simply an approach to the problem that allows us to continue offering some programs that otherwise might fade out, he said. Some of these events include the centers first exhibition, beginning Sept. 8, on black U.S. soldiers, which will be possible only with the support of at least six other programs and departments. Other centers have lost the ability to support old projects, even with support from other

Legislature could constitutionally define marriage

NC legislators considering outright gay marriage ban

By Estes Gould
Staff Writer

tHe aCt at a glaNCe

What it says: The act would put an amendment banning state recognition of same-sex marriage on the Nov. 6 ballot. What it would change: State law already bans same-sex marriage, but this will write it into the constitution making it more difficult for judges to overturn. The ballot: [ ] FOR [ ] AGAINST Constitutional amendment to provide that marriage is the union of one man and one woman at one time, and no other relationship shall be recognized as a valid marriage by the State.

The Carrboro Board of Aldermen passed a resolution this week against the N.C. Defense of Marriage Act, a measure proposed in the N.C. General Assembly. In a symbolic move, the board unanimously voted to oppose the bill, which would allow voters to make the states ban on recognizing gay marriage an amendment to North Carolinas constitution. The legislation wouldnt change anything in practice, but would make it harder to repeal the ban. Alderman Dan Coleman said the proposed bill would constitutionally deny the rights of an entire class of people. Its in the face of our 200-year history of expanding our understanding of rights, he said. This is a big step backwards. The Chapel Hill Town Council has expressed similar opposition to the bill, said Chapel Hill Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt. We are planning on reaffirming our opposition in September,

he said. The General Assembly is practicing bad policy making and poor leadership. Kleinschmidt said he doesnt think the bill will pass through the legislature, which is expected

Thomas Landreth hadnt really imagined his wedding in a Swedish ice hotel. His friends and family werent on the guest list; in fact, most of the guests were people he had met only a week before. He hadnt decided the date or location he won the wedding in a Scandinavian Airlines contest. But the ceremony was beautiful, the commitment to his spouse genuine, and thats all that mattered to him. Except his marriage wasnt real, at least not in the eyes of North Carolina. Landreth was marrying his college sweetheart, Brett Kessler, and gay marriage is not recognized in the state. North Carolina does not recognize same-sex marriages under the federal Defense of Marriage Act, which defines marriage as between a man and a woman. A proposed amendment seeks to add that definition to the states constitution, which could make it more difficult for judges and future legislators to overturn. The amendment could be put up for referendum in the 2012

elections, but it must first be passed in the legislative session starting Sept. 12. Six states issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, including New York, which recently overturned its ban. The District of Columbia also recognizes same-sex marriage. As it has with other states, the American Civil Liberties Union has opposed North Carolinas proposal, saying it would write discrimination into the constitution. It denies gay couples the opportunity to stand up in front of their friends, their family and their community and show their commitment to each other like straight couples can, said Sarah Preston, policy director for ACLU-North Carolina. Republican legislators who support the amendment say it would prevent activist judges from overturning the marriage law already in place. Weve seen across the country one judge overturning the will of the legislature and, in some cases, the will of the people, said N.C. Rep. Dale Folwell, R-Forsyth. This decision is bigger than one judge or 170 legislators.

dth FILE PhOtO The marriage of Thomas Landreth, left, and Brett Kessler, right, is not recognized in North Carolina as a result of the Defense of Marriage Act.

This is not the states first time to consider such a bill the issue also came before the General Assembly in 2007 and 2009. Most other Southern states have passed similar amendments. Landreth knew his marriage in December wouldnt be legal here. It was more symbolic than anything, he said. The couple will not have many of the benefits of marriage, including health benefits afforded

to straight married couples. A straight couple has visitation rights and the right to make medical decisions on behalf of his or her spouse; Landreth does not. And Kesslers care for him when he was sick is what brought them together in the first place, more than three years ago. We had been dating on and off, but our commitment to each

rustrated with the seeming overabundance of towing and parking tickets on Franklin Street? It could be worse. You could live in St. Gallen, Switzerland. A disgruntled construction worker, fed up with drivers parking near his building site, put his skills with a bulldozer to good use by delicately removing a vehicle blocking the entrance to the site. The worker, Ralf Scherrer, lifted the offending vehicle with the bulldozers digger arm and managed to squeeze the car into a tiny parking space away from the building site without damaging it.
NOTED. Police in southwest Ohio recently transitioned from traditional Taser stun guns to the Swiss army knife of non-lethal weapons. The Colerain Township Police Department is now using new Mark 63 Trident weapons, which can be used as a stun gun, baton and blinding strobe light and also shoot pepper spray. Dont taze me, bro.

Registration policies up for review

By Nick Andersen
Senior Writer

Proposals idling before the Universitys educational policy committee this fall could have lasting effects on the undergraduate and graduate registration processes. The plans include a possible revision of priority registration slots and a change to the process that students must undergo to drop a class. With budget cuts, were looking into how students drop classes beyond the 10-day drop-and-add period, said Chris Derickson, assistant provost and University registrar. Currently, students are required to meet with an academic adviser to drop a class after the initial drop/add period. Derickson said the advising department often sees more than 1,300 students at the end of the eight-week drop period. It would be possible to create a criteria that could be enforced by the PeopleSoft system, he said. Students wouldnt be able to drop below 12

hours or drop certain writing classes without meeting with an adviser. While committee member and professor Mike Salemi offered his hearty support for what he called an examination of true resource costs in the advising system, other members were more reserved. Bobbi Owen, senior associate dean for undergraduate education, offered statistics indicating that removing an adviser from the process could skew census data used to determine state funding. If plans move forward, the system could be revised by fall 2012, Derickson said. The committee also made plans to review the Universitys priority registration system, which the Faculty Council must renew for it to continue. Priority registration offers specific groups of students including student athletes and students with specific hardship conditions advance access to the registration system in 15-minute blocks before the general

student population. Citing concerns about scheduling advantages offered to those students with registration privileges, ex-officio committee member Andrew Perrin urged a close read of the system as it nears renewal. My concerns are mostly statistical, Perrin said. I wonder what students are unfairly disadvantaged or privileged, and what kinds of extracurricular activities are favored against those less-organized activities. Other committee members expressed concern that the system unfairly favors student athletes at the expense of course availability for other students. The committee voted to form a subcommittee charged with addressing priority registration. If it is able to issue a plan for approval by the Faculty Council before the end of the calendar year, it could take effect in March 2012, Derickson said.

The Chapel Hill Transit system will provide express shuttles to and from the University campus for Saturdays UNC-James Madison football game. Tar Heel Express shuttles will begin at 12:30 p.m. from the Friday Center and University Mall and 2 p.m. from the Southern Village and Jones Ferry Road park and ride lots. Shuttles will have a stop at South Road at Carmichael Auditorium and Woolen Gym, running every 10 to 15 minutes. The shuttles will operate for 45 minutes following the game, which starts at 3:30 p.m. in Kenan Stadium. Shuttle ride fares are $5 for round-trip or $3 for a one-way trip.

When Lauren McGuire first applied as a junior transfer student to UNC, she thought all she needed in a university was friendly people, warm weather and lacrosse. What McGuire didnt anticipate was the frustration associated with trying to graduate in eight semesters. McGuire, like many of the other 800 undergraduate transfer students, is unable to enroll in classes she needs. She left the College of Lake County in Chicago with 41 credits, but UNC only accepted a portion of those credits. When they put us in first-year programs and classes, it doesnt compensate what we need, she said. As an out-of-state student, Im paying a ridiculous amount of money in tuition for a University thats not accepting a lot of my previous classes. A 2010 report conducted by the University found that only 44 percent of junior transfer students at UNC are able to graduate in eight semesters.

But administrators still say that UNC has invested a lot in the success of transfer students in the past few years despite campuswide budget cuts. The University has increased their attention to transfer student retention and graduation, said Cynthia Demetriou, director for retention for the Undergraduate Education Office. While there have been budget cuts that are affecting all students, weve been investing a lot in our transfer students, Demetriou said. Weve started programs to raise awareness of these students and encourage their success. These initiatives are not likely to be affected by budget cuts because of efforts by the University to reinforce the importance of transfer students graduation rates, said Lee May, associate dean and director of academic advising. The University is working to create programs such as a living learning community and a new system where transfer students can have their credits re-evaluated online. The academic advising office is meeting with transfer students

months before school starts and even holding appointments via Skype. Bobbi Owen, senior associate dean for undergraduate education, said the only clearly tangible effects of budget cuts on transfer students are faculty cuts in departments like admissions and academic advising. There are fewer numbers of people who can work to help the same number of students who come in including transfer students, she said. Owen said the best remedy for this situation is early registration, but McGuire said thats nearly impossible for transfer students. She said academic advising should accommodate transfer students with an advising team that would deal specifically with transfer students. Transfer students can petition for an additional semester to fulfill graduation requirements. We want all students to graduate, May said. If students are behind because of course transferring here, we will not hold them up from graduating. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

With less space in the Student Union available to reserve for student groups during upcoming renovations, Union officials said they are doing their best to accommodate all requests for meeting space. Portions of the Union, such as the east wing and underground computer lab, have recently been closed down to begin the first phase of renovation, which will officially begin Sept. 10. Renovation plans include installing a Wendys restaurant, adding more meeting rooms and bringing the entire east wing up to code. We dont think theres going to be any problems that we cant solve, said Tony Patterson, senior associate director for student life and activities. Approval for a fee increase that would fund a second round of renovations was denied last spring in a referendum to the entire student body. If the referendum had passed, it would have cost students $16 in fees every year for 30 years to fund an $11 million renovation to the Unions bottom floor. Don Luse, director of the Carolina Union, said the second phase of renovations might be reconsidered next year after he confers with the Unions board of directors. Patterson said the Union will utilize a Twitter account and various marketing strategies to make sure students are informed about whats open during the first phase of renovation, as well as what changes have occurred. Scott Hudson, senior associate director for operations for the Union, said that Student Television and WXYC radio station are still in their rooms in the east wing, and that the Union staff are working around them for now. Patterson said Union officials will do anything they can to help students find space. The east wing of the Union hasnt been renovated or brought up to code since it was built in the 1980s, Hudson said. He said the bathrooms in the east wing will also be brought up to the standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, adding that the plans also include the installation of a gender-neutral bathroom. Sprinkler systems in every room will also make the building safer, he said. Patterson said the plan should be completed by August 2012, with portions of the renovated section available by the middle of spring semester. We are trying to plan work in such a way that will minimize the impact on students, he said. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

Affordable housing a major issue in 2011 race

Candidates focus on making housing more accessible.

Staff Writer

Instruments donated to Orange County Schools

National Pawn owner Bob Moulton donated more than 100 instruments to the Orange County Schools middle school band programs at a recent ceremony. National Pawn presented a check for $2,000 to the school district to offset future maintenance costs for their instruments. - From staff and wire reports

For candidates in this years Chapel Hill municipal elections, affordable housing will once again be a major issue. Mayor Mark ELECTIONS Kleinschmidt, who is running for re-election this year, said the lack of affordable housing in the town has been a problem for decades, forcing town employees to find housing outside of Chapel Hill. It has been a leading issue in every campaign for the last 20 years, he said. During the past few years,

the town has been working on revamping its affordable housing strategy and finding ways to deal with increasing housing needs of University students. The biggest thing to acknowledge is what a diverse housing need we have, said Lee Storrow, a UNC graduate and candidate for town council.

Town strategy
The towns recently revised affordable housing strategy was drafted to include an Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance, which was enacted in June 2010. The ordinance requires housing developments to offer 10 to 15 percent of their units at a price affordable to low and moderate income households. Housing is considered affordable if its annual cost is less than 30 percent of a residents annual income, according to the towns comprehensive housing plan.

2011

The Community Home Trust is the non-profit that works with Chapel Hill and housing developers to negotiate the affordable housing contracts stipulated in the laws, said Robert Dowling, the groups executive director. Orange County property taxes are among the highest in the state making it difficult for people who work in the town to live here, said council candidate Jon DeHart. During the past 15 years, the percentage of town employees living in Chapel Hill has decreased from 41 percent to 22 percent, DeHart said.

Looking into a ordable housing in Chapel Hill

Student impact
Candidates said they agree that University students impact the lack of affordable housing. I think the presence of students in Chapel Hill puts a strain on the market, because students can afford to pay prices that families cannot,

Storrow said. In the historically black and low-income Northside neighborhood, community leaders believe students ability to pay higher rent is pushing traditional residents out of the neighborhood. We need to support University efforts to keep students on campus, Kleinschmidt said.

Dowling said students should be aware of their neighbors in offcampus housing. It is as simple as realizing that those who live around them are not students, they are working people, he said. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.

said they remain committed to the admission policy changes. Please know that the decision has been made; it will not be reversed, the statement said. The group also created a petition to remove Debra Townsley, the new president of the school, who began serving last August. According to the petition, Townsley has enacted a number of other changes to the school throughout the course of the past year, such as dismantling the alumni organization and eliminating a number of majors.

Ultimately, I need money a lot more than I need to be recognized as married at 23 years old, he said. But it would be nice to have that happen.

Trustees of Peace College stated in a press release they were still unanimously in support of Dr. Debra Townsley. Watson said the alumni and student protests were not allowed on campus, and instead took place near the front entrance. When I spoke to Raleigh police on Friday, they informed me that it is private property and that we could be arrested for going on campus, she said. Peace administrators said in a statement that they prohibited protests on campus after consulting the Raleigh Police Department.

When you compromise our ability to do work, you make it harder for us to promote the topics that we do, Bickford said. Although many of the centers affected by budget cuts promote discussion of issues such as diversity, racial and gender equity and minority issues, Tresolini said cuts were apportioned regardless of a centers relation to these topics. It was more about structuring the overall cut to preserve all of these centers, Tresolini said. The University still places a high priority on diversity, Tresolini said, and did the best it could to minimize the impact that budget cuts would have on programs, including ones dealing with diversity issues. The good news is, we didnt lose any of these centers or institutes, she said. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

Hatchell said. She helps us with her abilities, and in return we train her with how we do things and help her become a better coach. That same sort of trade was made nine years ago when Hatchell added Smith to her staff. While Smith served as assistant, the Tar Heels compiled a 257-54 record, made the NCAA Tournament every season and won four ACC titles. It was during her playing career, though, when Smith truly established her legacy at UNC, and her No. 23 jersey now hangs from the rafters at Carmichael Arena. In her four years, Smith accrued 2,094 points and 1,200 rebounds both top-five UNC totals. And in the 1994 NCAA championship win on March 29, Smith took perhaps the greatest shot in the history of the program.

Down 59-57 to Louisiana Tech with 7/10 of a second left on the clock, Smith unleashed a threepointer that Hatchell half-jokingly called the second greatest miracle to ever happen on Easter Sunday. But despite all the history and all the years Smith has called UNC home, both she and Hatchell knew a day would come when she would have to leave the nest. And when the Elon position opened, the timing felt right. I feel like I had a great career there at UNC, but it was time for me to spread my wings and go in a different direction, Smith said. And I knew for the last couple of years that I wanted to give head coaching an opportunity Im looking forward to hopefully doing what we did at Carolina when I was there in my playing days.

According to the centers website, HAVEN is a campus-wide initiative to increase support for student survivors of violent and abusive relationships.

From KNC to XYC, college radio

has helped develop a thriving nightlife in the Triangle. On Sep. 10, four area college radio stations will come together in Raleigh for a showcase featuring their picks of local bands that have won over their audience and dominated their programming. Its a chance to catch up on a growing scene and learn more about student radio.

Really, the goal of [the event] was for each station to showcase the best, or most popular, local band that they play on their station. For Bonney, picking Bronzed Chorus was a nobrainer. The duos brand of heavy instrumental has dominated their local programming for five years. [This event] shows that these are more than just radio stations where kids play music, Bonney said. These are stations that create a culture and keep a music scene alive. -Joseph Chapman

more upbeat, high-energy band to a lineup that she felt was more laid back. Whatever Brains energy, in both its performances and its recordings, like its Nesting 7-inch record, was a big draw for Russ and other DJs. I wanted it to be something that XYC liked and something that was actually played on the radio, Russ said. The stations choice complements it well neither WXYC nor Whatever Brains adheres to the norm, with an experimental mindset that creates unexpected results. -Allison Hussey

For a festival based almost 80 miles west of Greensboro, WUAGs Hopscotch sponsorship might seem like a bit of a stretch. But for listeners, former General Manager Jack Bonney contends, the Triangle is where its at. We have a scene [in Greensboro], Bonney said. But we know that the scene in the Triangle is a lot more consistent. Plenty of our DJs and listeners travel to Chapel Hill and the Triangle to see shows. We actually do concert announcements for most of the venues there people are willing to travel. Budget cuts at UNC-G ended Bonneys full time position, but his leadership role at the station con-

College radio may have a reputation of being off the beaten path, but UNC-CHs WXYC ventures into an uncharted jungle. Advertisements are nonexistent save for local PSAs, and DJs are encouraged to spin music from every corner of WXYCs library however obscure or label-defying. Promotions Director and DJ Steph Russ said the stations dedication to diversity and giving airtime to material that would otherwise go ignored is how it defines its niche. WXYCs contribution to the showcase is Raleighs Whatever Brains. Russ said she wanted to bring a

Im looking forward to blocking out my weekend, getting all my schoolwork done ahead of time, and getting everything else I need ahead of time done, so I can just have the weekend to enjoy as much as possible, Mixon said.

Promotions Director Candace Mixon only had time to see the headlining Raleigh City Plaza shows at last years Hopscotch. This year, shes making room in her schedule. I thought it was just so crowded, but in a good way, Mixon said. It really brought a ton of people into downtown Raleigh and the area that wanted to have all of their musical dreams satisfied in one place. Mixon says the addition of several free day parties addresses a growing desire for local music in the Triangle. And WXDU hopes to meet the demand with Durhams Free Electric State, a dark, post-rock quartet consistently featured on the stations local

With a wider distribution, WKNC represents a more mainstream music audience. But that doesnt mean they ignore the local music community. Programming like Adam Kincaids The Local Beat helps facilitate the nightlife that hosts Raleighs Hopscotch with artist interviews, live sessions and an annual, local-only Double Barrel Benefit. Theres a story that Mac [McCaughan] from Merge Records heard The Love Language on WKNC, General Manager Molly Matty said. And that was kind of the reason that theyre on Merge Records. The stations traditional radio format gives it a certain reliability when it comes to programming. Listeners will never, for example, hear anything

but a cappella music between noon and 1 p.m. on a Sunday. For the showcase, Matty said that Raleighs Nests is a band on the rise, and thinks that theres a good chance the group will find its big break soon. Its another example of WKNCs support of local music, popular or not. While Matty said that she looks forward to Nests, her must-see band for the festival comes with the return of Durhams Bombadil, which has been on hiatus since mid-2009. Kincaid echoed her sentiment, calling the group his over-arching local favorite. -Allison Hussey

MUSICSHORTS
Widowspeak
Widowspeak Rock

Every song on Widowspeaks self-titled debut is about yearning for something whether its time gone by or what to do with the time you have. With seductive, half-discernable vocals, this musical triumvirate creates a sound that is charming and haunting, while fully reliant on polished instrumentals. Lyrically, the album ranges from clever wordplay to subtle historical allusions. Puritan opens the album with an inventive ballad combining an upbeat soundscape with

sharp religious references, sans preachiness. The song, like the rest of Widowspeak, explores its subject with a romantic restlessness, like the mind of a wandering child. This curiosity reaches its peak with Limbs, where vocalist Molly Hamilton croons, Floating in a forever haze / What to do with every days? Lyrical questions like these, although nothing more than the idle musings of dazed youth, are popular among bored peers. If theres one downfall to this album, its vocal monotony. Hamiltons enthralling lull barely changes dynamics from beginning to end. Its emotive and interesting, but unchanging. Ghost Boy closes the album,

hes honest. Painfully, unnervingly honest. Like Camus absurd hero the Sisyphus type who has resigned himself to the way things are theres something respectable about the defeat that peppers Cynics Need Love Too. Without mincing words, Wolfe cuts straight to the chase: hes sad, hes a songwriter, and hes going to depress you. Fortunately, Wolfes latest is an understated and alluring -Tyler Confoy form of emotional cataclysm. The local troubadour embodies Wesley Wolfe the same aesthetic that Built to Spill adopted in the 90s, pairing Cynics Need Love Too clipped lyrics with brash and barren melodies. Rock But that is not to say these songs are not fresh or inventive. If Wesley Wolfe is sad, at least Its like reading realist fiction: showcasing the bands ability to match lyrics with sound. Steady, foreboding drums ring out as Hamilton sings, I could see through him / His love for the living. Hamiltons woebegone howls fill the final minute of the album and just like the songs before it leave the listener with the haunting sense that innocence has been lost.

when Wolfe sings, You dropped me like a kidney stone, you cant help but wince and say, Perk up, buddy. But there will be no perking up. Wolfe is caught in the flux between something dysfunctional and the unknown beyond it, and instead of hope, theres an overwhelming sense of trepidation. It conveys beautifully in these sparse and brutal songs, and the honesty here is a refreshing change from the distanced, layered sounds that populate the blogosphere. Wolfes latest is nothing groundbreaking, but its truthful, and ultimately, its that sense of commiseration and intimacy that draws you in, listen after listen. -Linnie Greene

Q&A with Django Haskins

Carrboros Cats Cradle is unassuming yet full of local music history. Touring bands seek it out, while local bands dream of the night they headline a Cradle show. Renovations on the venue began in early July and were completed in stages so that club owner Frank Heath would not have to shut down the venue. Veteran attendees of the venue will now find the entrance on the side and many of the indoor risers removed. The stage and green room were also upgraded. Tonight, Chapel Hills The Old Ceremony and The Tomahawks help break in the new changes with a free show. Old Ceremony frontman Django Haskins took time to talk to Assistant Diversions Editor Allison Hussey about what the venue means to him.

MOVIESHORTS
Dont Be Afraid of the Dark
1973 brought the Pontiac Grand Am, a classic. Prestige aside, if one were made to run today as it did years ago, it would still have a stick shift and no A/C. That same year, the nowfamous TV-movie Dont Be Afraid of the Dark aired. Carrying the same old-fashioned charm as a restored Grand Am, the movie remake ignores the gory tastes of contemporary moviegoers. Effectively thrilling viewers within these 70s-TV boundaries, the film keeps all its promises even if there are scarier movies. When nine year-old Sally Farnham (Bailee Madison) moves to live in a century-old house with her father (Guy Pearce), she befriends a slew of ancient creatures who inhabit only the darkness. Upon realizing their intentions of eating her, Sally must convince everyone of their existence before its too late. Treating kids as multidimensional beings can threaten believability far too easily. But writer Guillermo del Toro, repeating his approach to Ofelia from Pans Labyrinth, endows Sally with a superb balance of conviction and naivet. For a nine-year-old to carry us through any story, this balance means everything. Between its child-centered narrative and R-rating, the film presents itself as a gritty fairytale, but only succeeds in being as gritty as 70s-ABC would have permitted. Sure, the CGI demons look ghastlier, but the films old-school feel insists they cant win in the end. The fact remains, however, that this film genuinely shocks you at times. Though not as much as it would have if there were, say, a sudden beheading of the unsuspecting housekeeper, letting the viewers imagination fill the darkness keeps the thrills coming. Much like that old stick-shift beauty, its a hell of a ride despite the changing times. -Rocco Giamatteo

Colombiana
Colombiana opens to the strains of Ave Maria, a surprisingly serious tone for a movie written by Luc Besson (The Fifth Element, The Professional). Then someone racks a shotgun and the rooftop parkour chase sequence begins and were back to the basics. When nine-year-old Cataleya (Zoe Saldana) witnesses the murder of her parents at the hands of a ruthless crime boss, she vows to become an assassin and one day avenge their deaths. Fifteen improbable years later, shes now a skilled killer who takes out targets with plans high in style, but low in sense. Cataleya spends so much time with her elaborate infiltration plans that her main form of travel seems to be crawling through air ducts. Colombiana is at its best when it embraces the low-rent antics of its sexy star, allowing for moments of campy delights. In one scene, a nine-year-old brutally stabs a man, while another features a random shooting in broad daylight, followed by the perpetrator simply moseying away as the police arrive. The film gets bogged down in a lifeless romantic subplot that serves as little more than an outlet for some PG-13 T&A, while doing nothing to develop Cataleyas emotions. While a little skin is often a prerequisite for this kind of flick, it derails momentum. Colombiana is unabashedly as empty as Cataleyas many spent clips. Despite an overwhelming amount of firepower, it just never quite hits the mark. -Mark Niegelsky

Rebels call for residents to liberate Gadhafis hometown
SADADA, Libya (MCT) The revolutionary fighters who deposed Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi last week have set up a base in the town of Sadada in preparation for a possible offensive on Gadhafis hometown of Sirte, one of the fugitive former dictators last bastions of support in the country. But they hope that a final battle wont be necessary, and some openly are calling for the people of Sirte to liberate their own city. The revolution in Sirte should come from the people in Sirte, said one young man from Misrata. If there is a battle, there will be much blood. Rebels think that Gadhafi might be in Sirte or perhaps Bani Walid, another city in central Libya with strong ties to the Gadhafi regime. NATO has been stepping up its attacks on Sirte, flying 38 bombing missions over the city Tuesday, three more than the organization had launched Monday. Last Saturday, NATO flew only one mission over the city.

JCPenney girls shirt sparks outrage over sexist message

LOS ANGELES (MCT) JCPenney has stopped selling a shirt after shoppers expressed outrage over what they called an inappropriate and sexist message. Im too pretty to do homework, so my brother has to do it for me, says the white long-sleeve shirt. The description accompanying the shirt was also offensive to many: Who has time for homework when theres a new Justin Bieber album out? Shell love this tee thats just as cute and sassy as she is. After seeing the shirt on the companys website Tuesday, Lauren Todd started a petition on Change.org asking the retailer to pull the shirt. By Wednesday morning, JCPenney had removed the shirt from its website.

Hispanic college enrollment on the rise nationwide

By Corinne White
Staff Writer

Hispanic college enrollment increased by almost a quarter from 2009 to 2010, mirroring the nations rapidly diversifying population. According to a study conducted by the Pew Research Center, college enrollment for Hispanics aged 18 to 24 increased by 24 percent in 2010. In October 2010, there were 12.2 million Hispanics enrolled in college the highest number recorded. Hispanics are now the largest minority group in community colleges, but they still lag behind blacks in four-year colleges, said Richard Fry, a senior research associate at the Pew Hispanic Center who produced the report. Fry said he expects Hispanics to soon become the largest minority in four-year schools. But while Hispanics are entering college at an increasing rate, many of them still dont graduate, Fry said. As Hispanic numbers continue to grow, colleges will devote more resources to improve the college persistence rate, Fry said. There may be more attention and effort toward helping students finish their courses of study. Fry attributed the increase to a growth in the countrys Hispanic population, along with increas-

ing high school graduation rates among Hispanics. Of those high school graduates, more are attending college, he said. In 2009, 36 percent of Hispanic high school graduates attended college, and in 2010, that number rose to 44 percent, Fry said. Ashley Memory, senior assistant director for UNC-CH undergraduate admissions, said 261 students in the Universitys entering freshman class are Hispanic. The University saw an increase of almost six percent in Hispanic applicants for the class of 2015, she said. By mirroring the diversity of our state, Hispanic students play an integral role in contributing to a positive learning environment at Carolina, and we are pleased by the recent overall increases, Memory said in an email. Few undocumented Hispanic students enroll at UNC-CH, but those who do count as out-of-state students toward the Universitys 18-percent cap, she said. At UNC-CH, 70.6 percent of Hispanic students graduate in four years, and 12.9 percent of those students dont graduate. Marina Offner, assistant director of undergraduate admissions at N.C. State University, said its class of 2015 has about two percent more Hispanic students than the previous class.

Senior assistant director for undergraduate admissions at UNC-CH

Offner, who specializes in diversity recruitment, said the key to attracting Hispanic students is creating strong connections in the community. Student organizations are also working to increase retention among Hispanic students. Renato Pereyra is the president of Carolina Firsts, an organization at UNC-CH that mentors firstgeneration college students. One of the biggest challenges is you walk around this campus and you dont see faces familiar to what you look like, he said. Pereyra said the group works to increase the first-generation graduation rate by pairing firstyear members of the organization with upperclassmen mentors and planning social events to encourage community building. People thrive when they feel a sense of community, a sense of belonging, he said. Contact the State & National Editor at state@dailytarheel.com.

aturday, Bryn Renner will step under center and get his first career start, trying to build on a career stat line that currently reads 1-for-2 for 14 yards. The redshirt sophomore saw action in three games last season but didnt get a chance to compete much as T.J. Yates ran the show for the fourth straight season. While Renner is the most inexperienced starting quarterback in the ACC in regards to snaps, games, yards, pass attempts and touchdowns, hes not far behind most of the projected conference signal callers this year. And that offers Renner some comfort. Weve been to camps together, so I think it obviously helps that theyre all new and were all in the same situation, Renner said. The ACC will have many new faces at quarterback this season with seven QBs beginning the year who were not regular starters last season. In his first year as the starter, Renner will have a chance to really stick out among his peers in a league that will be fraught with inexperience at the most important position on the field.

I took the career stat lines of all 12 projected starting quarterbacks in the ACC and averaged them. The final line: 9.5 game appearances, 90-for-156 for 1,063 yards, six touchdowns and six interceptions. Forget an entire career, those stats are below mediocre for just one year. Including Renner, there are six quarterbacks who have not passed for more than 500 yards in their collegiate careers. That said, theres a lot of potential for Renner to stand out. N.C. States Mike Glennon (326 passing yards, one TD) takes over for Russell Wilson; Stephen Morris (seven TDs, nine INTs) will start at least the first week at Miami; Tevin Washington (41.9 completion percentage) replaces Joshua Nesbitt at Georgia Tech;

Logan Thomas (107 passing yards) will step into the big shoes left by Tyrod Taylor at Virginia Tech; Clemsons Tajh Boyd (329 passing yards) replaces Kyle Parker; and Michael Rocco (six games, 13 completions) will take over at Virginia. All six of the teams will face North Carolina this season. In fact, of the five ACC schools with a returning QB starter, only Sean Renfrees Duke squad and Tanner Prices Demon Deacons are on the Tar Heels schedule in 2011. Renner shrugged off the notion that hed be able to stand out this year as inexperience abounds in the conference, saying that if everything goes right and we start winning ball games that would take care of itself. Hes in a spot that most new quarterbacks typically arent. Hes not the one new guy everyone has their eye on; hes one of many. And if Renner succeeds this year, he could be more than the good new guy he could be the best of them. Contact Jonathan Jones at jjones9@email.unc.edu.

University phones to use new broadband service

By Alex Hammer
Staff Writer

In light of budget cuts across the University, Information Technology Services is creating an option for academic departments to save money on their phone lines. At the end of September, ITS will begin a two-year transition plan to a broadband-based telephone service, much like Skype or Vonage. Michael Barker, chief technol-

ogy officer for ITS, said the new system is not currently supported by UNCs telephone provider, AT&T, and that ITS is in negotiations with Verizon, which supports the service. ITS officials said the new service will first be tested out internally in the ITS department, which will begin offering the option to other departments after it has worked out the kinks. During that time, we will be replacing standard telephone sets with voice over IP service, said

Ramon Padilla, associate vice chancellor of ITS. Padilla said switching to this new service could save each department a significant amount of money that could be spent on academic programming. Barker said the amount of money expected to be saved is hard to project, and depends on which of the services features department leaders want. They include web conference technology and automatic call trees, among others. He added that the project will

only begin to produce savings for the departments after three years of implementation. It will be cost-neutral over the first three years until weve paid off the handsets, Barker said. Barker said the new handsets range in price from $110 to $300, depending on the number of lines the department has. Seventy-five percent of the phones will be the $110 variety and the rest will range up to $300, he said. Each department with land-

lines in offices must pay the bills out of their individual budgets. Some department heads said they would love to have a lower phone bill. Beverly Taylor, chairwoman of the English and comparative literature department, said her department could use the money saved by a lower phone bill for something that benefits students directly. It would be most welcome if we could save money on our phones, she said.

The initiative is still in its early stages and departments have not been formally notified of the new initiative. Right now, we are in the phases for what the roll out and scheduling will be, Barker said. Once we figure this out, we will start scheduling departments. Barker said the project will be executed in phases by building and floors within each building. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

Art professors legacy lives on through his work

By Deborah Strange
Staff Writer

At LIGHT Art + Design, Lucky Strike cigarettes and red Bibles embossed with gold crosses decorate the walls. The studio, on the ground floor of the Greenbridge apartment complex on Rosemary Street, displays the work of now-deceased UNC art professor Kimowan Metchewais. Metchewais died July 29 after suffering from a brain tumor for most of his adult life. He returned to Canada last spring to be with his family, said Leigh Suggs, LIGHT co-owner.

It was his thing to go home to get better, and then to return, Suggs said. But I think this time he knew he would not return. A week before moving, Metchewais called Cindy Spuria, another LIGHT co-owner, asking her to display his work. I really felt compelled to do a show of his, Spuria said. It is because he asked, but also because he was a fine artist. We were honored. The show began in June and will end Sept. 24. LIGHT will also host a celebration of Metchewais work Sept. 10 with a short film about the challenges he faced

after surgery paralyzed the left side of his body. Suggs, a former student of Metchewais, said the show would give his friends and students the opportunity to see his work. As a student, you have your teachers, but you never see their art, what theyre making, Suggs said. This is kind of making it whole, bringing it back full circle, for people who knew him but couldnt see his body of work. The show includes Grandmothers Bible, a series of images depicting his familys holy heirloom below printed cigarettes.

Another piece, LUCKY STRIKE, portrays the bulls-eye logo of the tobacco company. Spuria said Metchewais, an artist of Native American descent, often used tobacco imagery in his work because it was a medicinal plant in his culture. The Ackland Art Museum recently acquired one of Metchewais later inkjet pieces, Fence, which will be on display starting in October as part of the exhibition Adding to the Mix. The piece speaks of wide-open spaces and the West, said Emily Kass, the museums director. Kass said the Ackland would

have continued to follow the work of Metchewais, whose career was young. People cared about him a lot, so we wanted to add a trace of his work in the collection, she said. Suggs said that, as a professor, Metchewais was invested in his students. He was a student with you. He wanted to learn from you as much as you wanted to learn from him, she said. I cant imagine how many students were touched by him. Contact the Arts Editor at arts@dailytarheel.com.

Boy, On Psalm 100 and the non-discrimation policy

The DTH is out to keep you informed

he Daily Tar Heel didnt out Will Thomason. In the past 24 hours, some have refuted that fact. What those responders didnt know was that before the story was published, Thomason was already out to the people who mattered his friends and family. Those who took issue with our decision also wouldnt have had a full understanding of the story if the line, Thomason, who is gay, ... werent included in a story about his beliefs on homosexuality and their direct correlation to his ouster from Psalm 100. The DTH didnt take that line lightly. The decision to come out can be a difficult one, and we know that broadcasting ones sexual orientation atop the front page isnt always appropriate. It was in this instance but not without a few questions first. Would the DTH essentially be outing someone who might not want or feel comfortable with such attention or exposure? Would it appear to readers that the DTH was attacking a group simply for the religious beliefs it holds? Would readers assume we were just substantiating UNCs liberal stereotype? Was Thomasons removal from his a cappella group an isolated situation, or did it represent a larger campus issue? Would we fail in our job to hold the University to account if we didnt run the story? The editors and I discussed these questions and more at length. We weighed the DTHs mission to inform campus and hold the University accountable without doing undue harm. We ultimately decided we needed to run the story for many reasons. First, we were able to talk to all parties involved. Both Thomason and Blake Templeton, the groups general director, agreed to on-the-record interviews. We didnt need to rely on anonymous sources, which would have harmed the storys credibility. We refined our wording to make the article as accurate as possible while remaining sensitive to all parties involved. That involved consultation with all sources from every side to make sure the issue was portrayed accurately. Second, we ran the story because of the real dilemma it presents: Thomasons removal shined a light on a University policy that is far from clear. We saw Psalm 100s case. Its right to control membership based on adherence to the groups constitution has some grounding, according to the rules in place. Meanwhile, one could make a case for the groups interpretation of that rule as a contradiction of the Universitys non-discrimination policy. The story went to print and addressed the policys blurriness. But it was ripe for follow-ups. When does a decision like this cross the line? Is there a line at all? Who gets to decide? It might take a while to get answers, as the University treads lightly in its response. Until then, Ill only make a few promises. Well report both sides, well reserve judgment (outside this page) and we wont turn down the heat on getting the answers you deserve. We didnt when we asked Will.

lETTErS TO THE EDiTOr

Statement of support for Will Thomason
TO THE EDITOR: The UNC Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Straight Alliance (GLBTSA) expresses its support for Will Thomason and the Universitys non-discrimination policy. GLBTSA hopes to participate in a campus-wide discussion about faith and sexuality in order to bring attention to these intersecting identities. We urge the understanding that all organizations on campus must abide by the nondiscrimination policy and are confident in the future actions of the university in working to build a more cohesive future. Executive Board UNC GLBLTSA violates the Universitys nondiscrimination policy. As such, they would then be required to re-write the constitution, and leave the part about adherence to the Bible out. Either way, Psalm 100 would be compelled to reverse their decision. If there are other reasons Thomason was dismissed from the group, then Psalm 100 may still bar him from participating but his dismissal under the reasons given indicates a clear conflict between the organizations constitution and the Universitys non-discrimination policy, and must be rectified.

Bev v. Irene
urricane Irene came and went with little ado here in Orange County, but the havoc it wreaked up and down the East Coast last weekend will not soon be forgotten. From the shellfish beds of Chesapeake Bay to the cotton and tobacco fields of North Carolina, the damage has made Irene one of the costliest hurricanes in the nations history. And because much of the damage was done not by winds but by flooding, many of the costs will not be covered by homeowners insurance. With this in mind, Gov. Bev Perdue took the swift action North Carolina needed this week, bringing federal disaster relief assistance to the state in its time of need. She announced

Gov. Perdue showed the urgency N.C. needs for hurricane relief.

Wednesday that seven N.C. counties have been approved for low-interest loans and grants from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. After asking for disaster relief Monday, Perdue moved quickly to expedite the funding approval process. She showed an immediate understanding that many survivors were uninsured for the damage and had U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack fast-track the approval of seven counties, with the possibility of more to come. Residents of those counties Beaufort, Carteret, Craven, Dare, Hyde, Pamlico and Tyrrell can now begin to piece their lives together, even with insurance covering less than 40 percent of the costs, as Kinetic Analysis Corporation estimates. The approval underscored an already concerted effort by Perdue to waste no time in responding to Irene. On Aug.

24, she declared a state of emergency in advance of the storm. President Barack Obama then followed suit, approving a federal emergency declaration for 34 counties that helped cover the expense of shelters, search and rescue missions and other emergency measures. Together, those responses should help redeem Perdue in the eyes of many North Carolinians, who rightly criticized her for a slow reaction to last springs tornados. Furthermore, they should help Perdue and other Democrats make the case for preserving federal spending at a time when some conservatives, like Rep. Ron Paul, call for eliminating agencies like FEMA in the name of deficit cuts. Perdue has a tough re-election bid awaiting her next year. She can count her response to Irene, so far, as something to show off to N.C. voters.

Bible condemns homosexuality, not debatable

TO THE EDITOR: You are perhaps the most liberally-biased newspaper in existence. Trying to argue that homosexuality is a debatable topic among Christians is ridiculous. The Bible is clear in every translation, Old and New Testament, that homosexuality is a sin, and a person living in a pattern of sin is not a true follower of Christ. Yes, I have researched this topic and can take you back to the original Greek translation. I suggest you do the same before making an argument on a topic you know nothing about apart from what you read on biased web sites. Oh, and just because God loves the world (John 3:16) does not mean that everyone in the world is a Christian and going to heaven. God loves sinners and Christians alike. To close, Psalm 100 was perfectly within their rights to dismiss a member who disagreed with the groups core constitution, which is the Bible. Will Jacobsen Junior, PWAD

Young Democrats in Congress acted unfairly

TO THE EDITOR: As a two-term member of Student Congress, I have always supported the body for its ability to provide all UNC students with an enriched experience. Students from smaller universities marvel at our ability to support numerous groups, a tradition that should be protected and should always be kept ethical. However, this tradition was grossly violated Tuesday in an unprecedented way, as personal politics influenced the votes of numerous representatives. Requesting $20,768 to bring pundit and author Ann Coulter on Sept. 20, the College Republicans were appropriated $5,000, and loaned $15,000 to be repaid to Student Congress. Members of the Young Democrats serving in Congress made the blindly partisan motion to make the College Republicans return $15,000. This is an unprecedented move that severely damages the reputation of this University. While in Congress, I have supported the Young Democrats in their efforts to host events. As chairman of the College Republicans, I understand the grave necessity of being involved politically, as members of both organizations have a shared interest in shaping our future by being politically active. This is why I voted in favor of allocating just under $16,000 to the Young Democrats, none of which has to be paid back, and would never put them in the position of having to raise $15,000. If we pride ourselves on being a university that supports equality and the free marketplace of ideas, then we must ensure that people of all viewpoints are given equal representation, not allowing personal biases to persuade our votes as elected representatives. Greg Steele Junior, Political Science Chairman, UNC College Republicans

The right not to know

orth Carolina has had its share of fiscal problems, but you wouldnt know it by looking at abortion policy in the state. Set to take effect in October, the Womans Right to Know Act is nothing more than a peg in the Republicans social agenda. The bill burdens both women and the state itself in a manner that could easily be avoided. Planned Parenthood, which is currently in the midst of an injunction in the fight to retain funding, is evaluating its options in filing a lawsuit against the controversial legislation. The law requires that any woman seeking an abortion be provided information

The Right to Know Act costs too much for the state, womens rights.

about the development of the fetus and subjected to a 24-hour waiting period, as well as offered an ultrasound. Those in support of the bill argue that the law is constitutional and, according to a poll taken by the conservative Civitas Institute, a majority of the state is in support of the legislation. But conservative legislators are losing sight of their priorities. There is nothing wrong with ensuring that all information is available to a woman in order to help her make an educated decision but this bill doesnt have the womans best interest in mind. And at such high costs, with initial printing of this new information costing the state more than $60,000, this bill will be hard to swallow for the state, as well. Janet Colm, chief executive officer at Planned Parenthood

of Central North Carolina, said the costs to women seeking abortions would become burdensome. The cost of birth control will likely triple, she said. Planned Parenthoods funding is already in turmoil due to a ban preventing the organizations funding from receiving money from the states budget. Currently, those funds support prevention programs and health services in Durham. The Womans Right to Know Act places an undue burden women by requiring them to spend more time and money on appointments. Certainly, there are individuals who would benefit from additional information. But the true intention of this act is to dissuade women from taking advantage of their rights. That isnt something the state can ever afford.

Psalm 100 should rewrite constitution

TO THE EDITOR: There are two ways in which Psalm 100 should be required to reverse their decision to remove Will Thomason from the group. The first way is acknowledging an alternative interpretation of the Bible which does not hold homosexuality as a sin, and the second is by revising their constitution to omit the clause forcing adherence to the ideology of the Bible. In the case of the first, acknowledging an alternative interpretation will ensure that the mandate of adherence to the Bible is permissible under the University. I am sure that many biblical scholars can offer such an interpretation, and that they would be quite convincing. Should such an interpretation fail to be accepted by the members of Psalm 100, Psalm 100 will be forced to claim that their constitution
