Outgoing provost
paves path for new
By Andy Willard
Staff Writer
Incoming Provost Jim
Dean was at a business din-
ner when he received a phone
call from Chancellor-elect
Carol Folt with the news
about his new job as executive
vice chancellor and provost
but he said he only caught
a few of her congratulatory
comments when he stepped
outside to talk.
I was at a busy intersec-
tion in Boston couldnt
hear anything she said for a
minute because of firetrucks,
he said.
Dean said he was excited,
honored and thrilled to fill
the position once current
Provost Bruce Carney steps
down at the end of June.
The provost serves as the
chief academic officer for the
University, and Carney said
the job entails approving all
new faculty hires, making
decisions regarding tenure
and budget cuts and receiving
reports from all the deans at
the University.
Dean has had a long career
at UNC, including 16 years in
the Kenan-Flagler Business
School as a professor, leader
and most recently as dean of
the school, a job he took in
2008.
He said his first few
months as provost would be a
transition period.
The first challenge is real-
ly getting to understand the
people and the issues across
the University, Dean said.
Carney said he enjoyed his
time as provost, but he added
it will be a delight to return to
teaching at the University.
The (provost) job is fun-
damentally nonstop, Carney
said.
The person better have
energy and insight, which Jim
Dean does.
He described Dean as an
innovator who will bring an
entrepreneurial focus to the
job.
Susan Cates succeeded
Dean as president of execu-
tive development at the busi-
ness school in 2008.
She said Dean always
made time to guide her as
she worked through the job,
which she said she had little
previous experience with.
Hes a terrific person to
work through a problem
with, she said. He always
approaches a failure or mis-
take from the perspective of,
What can I learn from it to
make me more effective in the
future?
Cates said Dean was
instrumental in launching
the online Master of Business
Administration program
MBA@UNC in the fall of
2010 a bold move for an
elite business school, she said.
The program, one of the
first of its kind in the coun-
try, allows students to earn
MBA degrees through online
courses without ever setting
foot on campus.
But Cates said the invest-
ment paid off, and the first
graduates of the program will
receive their diplomas in June.
We ll miss Jims leadership
and willingness to take well-
deliberated strategic risks,
she said.
Although its sad for us
to lose him from a school
perspective, I think he will
be a terrific leader for the
University as a provost.
Dean said the new position
will give him more opportuni-
ties to do what he enjoys most
meeting with students.
After 16 years here, I have
an incredible appreciation for
the students, he said
Im looking forward to
getting to meet students
across the whole University.

UNC freshmen and
visitors can look forward to
new pay-to-park methods,
increased signage and an
enhanced website to make
parking downtown more
accessible.
The town of Chapel Hill, in
coalition with the Chapel Hill
Downtown Partnership, has
developed parkonthehill.com,
a mobile-accessible site that
shows all available parking
on and around the Franklin
Street area.
By Jordan Bailey
University Editor
On-campus parking is lim-
ited, and freshmen are among
those prohibited from bring-
ing their cars to UNC.
But a lack of parking space
availability isnt the only rea-
son that freshmen cant bring
their cars to campus, said
Randy Young, spokesman
for the Department of Public
Safety.
One of the reasons that
Student Government doesnt
want freshmen on campus
with cars is they want them to
acclimate to the campus envi-
ronment, Young said.
We want freshmen to get
a better feel of the campus by
foot, by bike, et cetera.
Young added that having
a car on campus is unneces-
sary because public transit in
Chapel Hill is free.
Additionally, on-campus
dorms are within walking
distance of class buildings,
dining halls, the gyms, the
athletic stadiums, Franklin
Street and more.
While having a car on
campus is not essential, there
are a few options freshmen
can explore for parking on
campus if they have a car in
Chapel Hill.
The park and ride lots
The park and ride option
allows students to drive to
certain lots where they can
leave their car and catch a
bus. Beginning this year,
park and ride permits will
cost $227 annually, or $170
for the academic year for
students.
UNC hardship parking
Hardship parking is
reserved for students with
special circumstances.
Town opens parking options
Campus parking
not for freshmen
The website is a one-stop
resource tool for people who
are trying to find parking
downtown, said Patty Griffin,
communications director
of the Chapel Hill Visitors
Bureau.
The website lists the
expected fees for pay lots,
which average about $1.30
per hour, as well as when lots
are free to the general public
after 6 p.m. on the street,
after 8 p.m. in metered lots
and all day Sunday in most
locations.
It is great for students
who are just getting here to
town for the first time, and
their families, to find out
where they can park at any
time of day or night, said
Meg McGurk, executive
director of the Chapel Hill
Downtown Partnership.
The town recently expand-
ed pay options for the now-
computerized parking meters
to include credit cards and
mobile phone pay, McGurk
said.
ParkMobile, an app
launched in Chapel Hill
last month, allows frequent
visitors to create an account,
enter credit card information
and pay for parking meters
by cellphone.
The app also sends text
messages to alert users when
the parking meter is close
to running out of time, said
Brenda Jones, Chapel Hills
parking superintendent.
Jones said she believes the
town has plenty of available
parking options.
Our effort is mainly to
try to figure out how we can
educate people better, Jones
said.
Efforts like parkonthehill.
com and ParkMobile attempt
to make downtown park-
Students who have children,
are required to have a job or
hold military status are exam-
ples of those who may qualify
for hardship parking and can
apply for a permit. Permits
are distributed on a case-by-
case basis, and freshmen are
not eligible.
After-hours faculty lots
Many of the faculty lots
on campus are unenforced
after 5 p.m. on weekdays and
all hours of the weekend.
Students can park in these
lots for free during these
hours. Each lot has a sign at
its entrance explaining park-
ing restrictions.
Visitor parking permits
Students who need to bring
their car to campus can pay
a visitor parking fee that will
allow them to park in certain
lots for a restricted amount of
time. Visitor parking permits
start at $1.50 per hour.
Triangle Transit system
For those who dont bring
a car with them to UNC, the
Triangle Transit bus system
has a number of different bus
lines that run through cam-
pus, downtown and into the
surrounding area.
For just $2 per ride or
$4 for a regional day pass,
Triangle Transit will take rid-
ers to destinations a bit far-
ther from campus. The buses
stop at a number of popular
spots, including Southpoint
mall and Raleigh-Durham
International Airport.

visitors to navigate. Carolina
blue P signs have also been
posted throughout the area to
designate available parking

Jones also said she feels
an education about the
parking locations will help
people avoid predatory tow-
ing areas.
Its difficult because its
not the town, its not our divi-

Jones said by partnering

Choral group strikes chord
By McKenzie Coey
Staff Writer
The Achordants, an all-
male a cappella group spon-
sored by the Campus Y, has
focused on serving others
since it was founded in spring
2001.
The group is just one of
several a cappella groups on
campus some all-male,
some all-female and others
mixed in gender.
Michael Bien, business
manager for the Achordants,
said from the beginning
its goals have always been
focused on serving the com-
munity.
It is really all about giving
back to campus instead of
just singing, Bien said.
Sam Barge, the groups
assistant music director, said
one of his favorite gigs is sing-
ing at UNC Hospitals, which
they try to do once a month.
Sometimes its like sing-
ing a song to a patient or for
a family can really affect their
day a lot in a really positive
way, he said.
There is something really
awesome about that.
Taylor Miles, the
Achordants president, said
the group has fall and spring
concerts at the end of each
semester, in addition to the
two or three gigs it has sched-
uled each week.
During the concerts, mem-
bers incorporate skits along
with their singing to entertain
the audience.
We hopefully make (the
audience) laugh along the
way, Miles said.
I would definitely encour-
age incoming students to try
out an Achordants concert.
Bien said the skits reflect
the members carefree per-
sonalities.
He also said the group
spends time together outside
of practices and gigs.
We dont take ourselves
too seriously, but we definite-
ly take our music seriously,
Bien said.
Miles said he hopes the
concerts are entertaining and
comical and the members get
a chance to be themselves and
have a good time while per-
forming.
It has been one of the
most defining experiences
of my college career, Miles
said.
I am able to incorporate
one of my passions music
into having a good time.
Barge said the group
holds auditions at the begin-
ning of each semester. They
look for guys who are open-
minded and have a sense
of humor, as well as having
vocal talent.

The Achordants performed Radioactive Love, a combination
of two popular songs, at their spring concert earlier this year.
The groups heart is in a
really great place, he said.
The idea of service and
the idea of social justice and
diversity are really at the core
of the group.

Q&A with music
man Mark Katz
UNCs music department
is open to everyone, from
someone who is interested in
majoring in music to someone
who just wants to learn more
about the history of Latin
American music.
Arts editor Samantha
Sabin spoke to professor
Mark Katz, the music depart-
ment chairman, about what
the department has to offer
incoming freshmen.
DAILY TAR HEEL: What
would you say are the music
programs biggest appeals?
MARK KATZ: Well, in a sense,
the biggest appeal is music.
Everybody likes music, every-
body has experience with
music, but ... what makes this
music department interesting
is that we cover a huge variety
of music.
Traditionally, music
departments at universities
focus on classical music and
jazz and we do that very
strongly but over the past
few years weve been having
a lot of courses and hands-on
experience for students in
pop music.
DTH: Can you elaborate on
the audition process for the
program?
MK: Some students come in
before theyve been accepted
in January, February and
March and audition. Of
course, that has passed, but
in the first week of class there
are auditions for ensembles,
and you can also meet with
studio teachers say if youre
a pianist and youre interested
in piano lessons, you can
meet with piano teachers.
But on Sunday, Aug. 18, at
3 p.m. (in 1201 Kenan Music
Building), anyone interested
in becoming a music major
would be invited to that to
learn more about the pro-
gram, and meet with poten-
tial teachers and ensemble
members.
DTH: So what do incoming
music majors have to look
forward to in the first year?
MK: In the first year, they
do a variety of different activi-
ties. They would take some
basic theory courses, so learn-
ing how music is put together,
learning sight-seeing,
learning harmony basic
fundamentals of music and
musicianship. They would
take lessons, they might be in
ensembles.
And then they can fill out
the rest of their schedule with
courses from across campus.
So its a variety of academic
and practical experience.
DTH: And how many fresh-
men typically participate in
the ensembles?
MK: We have several
ensembles theres the UNC
Symphony Orchestra, the
wind ensemble, the womens
choir, the marching band and
others. Collectively, its a few
hundred students.
And theyre not all music
majors. The ensembles are
pretty much open to everyone
who successfully auditions.
DTH: What does the music
department offer to non-
majors?
MK: We serve the whole
campus. We have courses that
are designed for non-majors.
Students dont have to know
how to read music or have
music experience to take
them.
So courses like
Introduction to Rock,
Introduction to Country
and Introduction to Jazz
all of these are 100-level
courses that any student can
take. A lot of the popular
music courses, the hands-on
music courses, like the rock
lab, beat-making lab, the DJ
course, are also courses any
student can take.
We welcome any student
on campus, and anyone who
is interested in music should
be able to find something that
they really love in the music
department.

Hicks is a fast and athletic

Hicks had a knack for block-

a triple double with blocks in
one game.
Places to improve
Just like soon-to-be sopho-

criticism coming in is that
hes not quite strong enough
yet. To be a big man on the
next level, Hicks will need to
develop a post game and hit

Strengths
Meeks has power in the
paint on both the offensive

floor. With a combination of
solid footwork and impressive
hands, he has potential to be
big for the Tar Heels down low.
Places to improve
Though Meeks plays well
in the paint, most of his work
is below the rim as an area
rebounder. Athleticism is also
an issue for the UNCs newest

key to his development once
he gets to Chapel Hill.

Nate Britt
ketball IQ and could poten-
tially be a floor general on
the offensive end. Britt can
change speeds on his drive
and has a mid-range jump
shot to complement his agil-
ity. With the departure of
Dexter Strickland, Britt will
likely see substantial time off
the bench as Marcus Paiges
backup.
Places to improve
Britt could use some work
on his shooting from range,
and he needs to develop phys-
ically once he gets to UNC.
While hes quick, his general
athleticism and strength must
improve once he reaches the
college level.

Sports Editor
In the last two seasons,
the North Carolina mens
basketball team has seen four
starters leave college early to
join the NBA. With so many
players leaving prematurely,
the importance of recruiting
has been amplified for the Tar
Heels. This year, ESPN has
rated three of UNCs incom-
ing freshmen as four-star
players or higher.
After an early departure by
Kendall Marshall two years
ago, last years incoming
freshman point guard Marcus
Paige was forced to start his
career as UNCs primary ball
handler, instead of learning
from Marshall for a year or
two.
This year, the Tar Heels
will have most of their start-
ers returning, but coach Roy
Williams is still likely to give
his freshmen big roles on the
team.
With the departure of
shooting guards Dexter
Strickland to graduation and
Reggie Bullock to the NBA
draft this year, incoming
freshman point guard Nate
Britt should get quality play-
ing time behind Paige as a
backup.
Though this isnt quite as
high-pressure as the situa-
tion Paige found himself in
last year, Britts ability to give
quality minutes off the bench
could prove to be important
for a team looking to improve
on last years early exit from
the NCAA tournament.
How far UNC goes this
year could depend on how
much of a impact these fresh-
men have on the team.

A sea of students in Carolina blue rushed Franklin Street after
UNC defeated Duke in the rivalry basketball game last year.
Reveling in campus culture,
history with Tar Heel traditions
Y
ou only have four years
at UNC, and trust me,
it goes by fast. So if you
could do absolutely anything,
what would you want to
accomplish while here?
Do you want to be on a
first-name basis with the
chancellor? Do you want
to be at every UNC basket-
ball game and be buds with
Roy? Do you have a desire
to pick senators brains or
get involved in politics, even
learn about your local council
members? What about seeing
and critiquing amazing plays,
designing a masterpiece or
capturing a breathtaking
moment through a lens?
If the answer is yes to any of
the above, consider your start-
ing point The Daily Tar Heel.
Coming to a university
as big as UNC can be over-
whelming. On my first day of
class as a freshman, I got on
the wrong bus, tripped and
fell in front of hundreds of
people and was late to almost
every class because I got
totally lost. But I was excited,
even though I had no idea
what was in store for me.
I walked by dozens of
the blue DTH boxes around
campus, and I instantly felt a
curiosity about what oppor-
tunities it held, despite my
complete lack of journalism
experience.
People were reading the
paper on the bus, talking
about what was going on
around campus in the dining
hall and grabbing a paper on
their walks through the quad.
What could be so enticing
about a newspaper? Some of
my friends barely read over
the front-page headlines of
our hometown newspaper,
unless it was Sunday, when
they skipped to the comics
page.
What I hope you will
soon understand is that the
DTH is an opportunity to be
immersed in UNC and the
community around you but
most of all, its a chance to
learn what professors cant
teach you in class.
Its a chance to try new
things with no experience
necessary. A chance to learn
how to work a camera, how
to edit a video, how to write
a story, how to form an argu-
ment, how to talk to influen-
tial people and a chance to
make a big school small again
by meeting passionate and
driven people around you.
Think about this. If you
write or produce something
for our paper, you can reach
up to 40,000 people in
just one day, and countless
people over the internet. Its
an opportunity to have your
name stretch across campus,
make yourself noticed or, if
youre not into that, just get
the internal satisfaction of
knowing you helped make
something great.
Sounds good, right?
So even if you choose not
to actually work with us,
make sure you get involved
and immersed in our cover-
age. Be informed. Impress
your roommate, your par-
ents or your professors with
your knowledge of the world
around you.
I would encourage all of
you, no matter what you think
you want to do in life, to just
try something new and try
it with us.

UNC is filled with unique
traditions that bring together
students and alumni alike.
From watching a crowd run
naked through the library
during finals week to ensur-
ing good luck for life at the
Old Well, every UNC student
should take part in some of
the Universitys oldest tradi-
tions.
Here are a few of the most
prominent must-have student
experiences on campus.
Good luck from the Well
Legend has it that taking
a drink from the Old Well on
the first day of class will bring
you good luck for the semes-
ter, and taking a picture at the
Well on graduation weekend
will bring you good luck for
life.
The Old Well is one of the
Universitys most treasured
landmarks, its most endur-
ing symbol and the center of
campus life.
Climbing the Bell Tower
Every year, graduating
seniors are invited to climb
the Bell Tower and see cam-
pus from a new perspective.
The tower is located behind
Wilson Library and overlooks
the football stadium and the
lower quad of campus. Dont
miss the chance to make your
mark and brag to underclass-
men.
Rushing Franklin Street
There is no feeling more
exhilarating than rushing
Franklin Street to celebrate a
win over Duke in basketball.
Franklin Street is the center
of Chapel Hills downtown,
bordering the northern edge
of campus.
Wildly happy fans take
over the area, where they have
been known to start bonfires
and tear down street signs to
rejoice in victory. In the past,
local stores have halted the
sale of Carolina blue paint
before national championship
games to prevent fans from
painting the street.
Streaking in the libraries
Every semester on the
night before the first day of
exams, a group of students
streaks through the Davis
and Undergraduate librar-
ies at midnight wearing
nothing but shoes and masks.
Hundreds of students aban-
don their studying to witness
the spectacle that has become
an exam week tradition.
Seeing the rivalry game
The rivalry between UNC
and Duke is the best in col-
lege sports. Separated by
only 8 miles and a shade of
blue, a game between the two
teams evokes an unparalleled
level of passion in their fans.
Attending one of these games
is a must during your time at
UNC.
Singing the alma mater
Win or lose, UNC fans
stand together and sing the
alma mater, called Hark the
Sound, after every sporting
event. So join arms with a
stranger and sing your heart
out. Hark the sound of Tar
Heel voices, ringing clear and
true!
Round trip on the P2P
There are some interest-
ing characters on the P2P
Express, the Universitys late-
night bus service that oper-
ates seven days a week during
the academic year from 7
p.m. to 3 a.m. A trip around
the circuit offers a snapshot
of Chapel Hill nightlife and
will likely offer some funny
encounters. Ride the bus full
circle one night to really take
it all in.

Not everyone who comes to
UNC will stay in Chapel Hill
after college. But for some,
the move to the Southern
part of heaven becomes a
little more permanent.
Chapel Hill Mayor
Chapel Hill Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt said he first
became active in politics
while a student at UNC. Years
later, he would return to gov-
ern the town.
There is a lot of opportu-
nity for young people coming
into college to get involved in
local issues, get their feet wet
in politics and make some dif-
ferences in communities they
live in, he said.
He said incoming students
have a responsibility to con-
tribute to the community and
fill the shoes of past students
who were locally involved.
There is still a lot more
that can be done, he said.
Our community is a better
place because we have a stu-
dent body at the University
that is so committed to keep-
ing the community great, and
I hope the new class will con-
tinue that tradition.
Kleinschmidt said Chapel
Hills relationship with the
University is the best it has
been since he has lived here
most of the last 26 years.
Carrboro Mayor
Ever since he was a part
of an environmental group
as an undergraduate at
UNC, Carrboro Mayor Mark
Chilton has been interested in
local issues.
I have just been involved
in one way or another in local
government ever since, he
said.
He said he recommends
students stay involved with
local politics, have a voice in
the community and espe-
cially pay attention to town
elections in the fall.
It will be a good time for
those who might be inter-
ested in politics, he said.
Get in contact with the
local government and let us
know what kinds of services
you are looking for.
He said he sees high levels
of student involvement in the
town.
We have had a great rela-
tionship over the past years
with the University adminis-
tration. We have always got-
ten along well with the UNC
student body, he said.
Town Council member
For some UNC students,
an interest in local govern-
ment comes early even
historically early.
Chapel Hill Town Council
University,
town work
together
While UNC-CH has battled
funding cuts from the N.C.
General Assembly over the
past five years, Executive Vice
Chancellor and Provost Bruce
Carney has been at the helm.
State & National Editor
Sarah Brown spoke with
Carney about this years
potential budget cuts and
what they could mean for stu-
dents and the University as a
whole in the coming year.
DAILY TAR HEEL: Given the
budget proposals on the table,
how might UNC be affected?
BRUCE CARNEY: There are
things in (the N.C. House of
Representatives budget) that
are truly threatening to not
just the overall undergraduate
program, but to the profes-
sional schools as well.
Take a professional school
like business for example.
They attract students on the
basis of the quality of program
and the cost of the program.
If their students had to pay
an extra 12 percent on top of
whats already a competitive
market rate, they wont be
very competitive in the mar-
ket any more. That could lead
to a loss of applicants, lower-
ing of quality of the students
its a major problem.
(The undergraduate pro-
gram would) also be a lot less
competitive for out-of-state
students.
DTH: Do you think further
tuition increases could be on
the horizon?
BC: If we keep getting cut,
tuition is going to probably
have to keep going up, if were
going to maintain our quality.
The other issue in this
equation is: How much more
financial aid can we provide
so that students are effectively
held harmless? And thats a
tough one to predict. Weve
had our battles in the past
year on that spark. Its a very
difficult discussion.
DTH: How do you think the
cuts will be distributed?
BC: I dont think theyre
going to be as big as they
were in the past, but ... weve
lost an enormous amount of
money in state support over
the last years.
Still, weve kept the pro-
gram successful by any stretch
of the imagination, in terms
of the strength of the entering
class and graduation rates.
Weve tried to do new
things. Weve got this new
academic plan ... and weve
had things like The Rite of
Spring at 100.
Weve done a lot despite
the cuts, too, to keep the place
vibrant.
But theres a limit. I dont
think its very wise policy to
push the cost of cuts to the
point where things begin to
go downhill.
DTH: What is the process
for determining how the cuts
will be absorbed at UNC?
BC: Weve spent the last
two months listening to every
school ... on campus that gets
state support and explain
where they would take the
cuts and what harm they
would cause.
In the past, theres been
some pretty significant
variation. I dont think theres
going to be as much variation
this time. Everybodys going
to get hurt.
DTH: How has UNC
become a more efficient cam-
pus over the last few years?
BC: One way is a planned
approach.
Do we really need those
people? Do we really need
those centers? Should it be
that many people reporting
to that person, or should it be
more or fewer?
We followed that plan pret-
ty carefully, and that saved us
probably $50 million per year.
There are places that
probably can still be cut, but
theyre not places we want to
cut.
I hope the rest of campus
will know that were doing
our best to preserve the high-
est quality on campus, and we
are hoping that the legislature
doesnt cut us too deeply.
dth/kaki pope
Bruce Carney, outgoing executive vice chancellor and provost,
has taken the lead on dealing with budget cuts over the years.
Q&A with Bruce Carney
member Lee Storrow came to
UNC as an undergraduate in
2007. And immediately after
graduation in 2011, he was
elected to the town council.
Storrow, the youngest coun-
cil member Chapel Hill has
ever had, said he feels a special
connection to the town.
Both of my parents went
to UNC, so I have always real-
ly loved Carolina and loved
Chapel Hill, he said.
Storrow said he is aware of
the special relationship the
student body has with Chapel
Hill.
I have definitely tried to
be inclusive of pulling stu-
dents into the conversations,
he said. We have administra-
tion at UNC thats really sup-
portive of the work happen-
ing in the town.
He said he thinks the town
would not be a thriving com-
munity if students werent
present.
I think there is a special
energy that exists in Chapel
Hill because the town really is
a steward of this learning that
happens at UNC that benefits
the whole state, really, by hav-
ing this great University here.
He said he recommends
taking advantage of the
opportunities on Franklin
Street and in downtown
Chapel Hill.
If you spend all of your
first year on campus at UNC,
I think you are missing out
on some of the energy that
makes this whole community
an exciting place, he said.
Storrow said he recom-
mends freshmen get to know
the people who live around
them, even if they are not
students.
Take the time to get
engaged in Chapel Hill out-
side of your classes that
really will enliven and enrich
your time at Chapel Hill.

Weekend attractions

Get a dose of
the state
political scene
By Daniel Schere
Staff Writer
While Chapel Hill has a
number of activities to offer,
many students head out of
town for a little exploring on
the weekends.
Durham: Not just a rival
Our next-door neighbor
offers a variety of low-cost
activities, including down-
town concerts and festivals.
For foodies, there is a farmers
market in Durhams Central
Park on Saturdays and
monthly food truck rodeos,
which feature multiple
food trucks from across the
Triangle and are very popular,
said Sam Poley, spokesman
for Durham Visitors Bureau.
These (rodeos) are a blast
for younger folks, he said.
You may also want to visit
Eno River State Park, where
you can hike, fish, picnic or
camp. During the spring and
summer months, you can
take in a ballgame at Durham
Bulls Athletic Park for less
than $10.
On the Universitys
campus, the 55-acre Duke
Gardens is a quiet, serene
place perfect for a date or a
wedding.
Poley said Durham is the
ideal place for young people
who want inexpensive enter-
tainment.
For students needing to be
budget-conscious, Durham
has a lot to offer, he said.
Most Triangle Transit bus
routes go to Durham as well
as the UNC-Duke Robertson
bus, which is free with a stu-
dent pass.
Wine, dine in Chatham
After youve spent a little
time in the classroom, head to
one of the monthly skywatch-
ing sessions at Jordan Lake,
where Morehead Planetarium
hosts point out various
planets and constellations.
Its free, and Pittsboro-Siler
City Convention and Visitors
Bureau Director Neha Shah
said it is very popular among
students.
Its a great date night
option, she said.
For those 21 and older,
several local wineries offer
tours and tastings, including
Starrlight Mead in Pittsboro,
which features wine and
honey tastings for just $5
anytime. Pittsboro also has
a farmers market at the
Chatham County Fairgrounds
every Thursday between April
and November, in case you
get tired of Carrboros.
Shah suggests head-
ing even further south
to Moncure and visiting
UnWined a store that sells
more than 30 different North
Carolina wines as well as
locally produced foods from
sweet potato crackers to pep-
per jelly. It has special events
every month.
Shah emphasized Chatham
County is still part of the
Triangle, despite not having a
large city.
Just because its not famil-
iar doesnt mean theres noth-
ing here, she said.
Most things in Chatham
are only accessible by car, but
Chapel Hill Transits PX route
does stop at a shopping center
on the outskirts of Pittsboro.
Maple View ice cream
At some point you ll begin
to grow tired of YoPo and
Cold Stone, which means
its time for a trip to Maple
View Farms. Its located on a
400-acre farm on Dairyland
Road about 10 minutes from
Chapel Hill. There are 12
regular flavors in addition to
monthly specials and sorbet.
Manager Allison Nichols
said the store always receives
a fair share of students from
UNC and Duke during the
academic year. She attributed
this to reasonable prices rang-
ing from $2.75 to $6.50. She
hopes newcomers to the area
will give Maple View a chance.
Its more of a destination.
Its a nice little symposium
outside the city, she said.
No bus lines run here. The
store is located at the corner
of Dairyland Raod and Rocky
Ridge Road in Hillsborough.
Maple View ice cream is also
available in most local grocery
stores.

city@dailytarheel.com.

Maple View Farms in Hillsborough is one of many out-of-town
options UNC students have for weekend excursions.
Sarah Brown
State & National Editor
W
hen I first arrived
in Chapel Hill in
fall 2011, I knew
North Carolinas state govern-
ment was nestled somewhere
in the muddle of streets in
downtown Raleigh.
That was the extent of my
knowledge of N.C. politics.
Ignorance of the political
scene within states has histori-
cally been the case. People care
about presidents, about wars,
about national elections not
Bill 300-something sponsored
by that gray-haired represen-
tative (whats his name again?)
from District 78.
Students, many of whom
are not yet state taxpayers,
tend to care even less.
State government isnt
glamorous. N.C. politicians
dont have the celebrity appeal
of famous (and infamous)
political figures like Barack
Obama, Hillary Clinton and
Sarah Palin. They dont cause
dramatic spikes in worldwide
YouTube views with appear-
ances on The Daily Show or
The Colbert Report theyre
not the ones leaving us in fits
of laughter on a late-night
study break.
But as I started covering
state and national news for
The Daily Tar Heel, I learned
quickly that state politics is
a kind of quiet giant the
driving force behind our day-
to-day lives as college students
and North Carolina residents.
As a public institu-
tion, UNC is, by nature,
state-funded. Although
the University as a whole
receives less than one-fifth
of its operating budget from
the state, the academic realm
at UNC which students
and faculty fall into relies
heavily on the General
Assembly.
The College of Arts and
Sciences receives the major-
ity of its support from the
legislature. Eighty-seven per-
cent of you will be strolling
the halls of this college, the
Universitys largest school, for
most of your undergraduate
career.
The Writing Center that
offers you free help as you
scramble to synthesize ideas
into your first college paper?
The salary that puts a physics
professor in the classroom to
translate that scientific non-
sense into plain English for
you? The in-state tuition, a
bargain for attending an elite
University, that 82 percent of
us receive?
By and large, they all tie
into state government. The
General Assembly and the
UNC system should ideally
have a symbiotic relation-
ship the state provides
money to the schools, and
the schools return the favor
by educating the population,
preparing people for the
workforce and benefiting the
state economy.
But, despite the fact that
state government and public
universities are dependent on
each other, they are often not
on the same page. As a result,
advocacy plays an important
role.
Each of the systems
17 universities has lobby-
ists who advocate for its
campus at the legislature
and the Association
of Student Governments
works with UNCs General
Administration to try to
ensure students have a voice
in the debate as well.
Some students choose to
make themselves heard more
directly UNC students
have been among hundreds
of North Carolina residents
protesting at the General
Assembly over the past few
weeks. Several have been
arrested after committing
acts of civil disobedience.
While Im not proposing
that UNCs entire student
body should saunter over to
Raleigh and risk arrest for its
beliefs, I think the protests
shed important light on the
fact that the state political
scene does matter and
students should pay attention
to it.

A townies take on Chapel Hill life
Cammie Bellamy
City Editor
C
all me biased.
And while youre at
it, call me lucky.
For 21 years, Ive been for-
tunate enough to call Chapel
Hill home. Before even being
old enough to fully appreci-
ate what it meant, I ate at the
Suttons lunch counter, mem-
orized each block of Franklin
Street and cheered on the Tar
Heels from living rooms in
every corner of town.
But it was only after get-
ting into UNC that I truly
got perspective on what the
connection between this town
and our school means.
Chapel Hill and UNC coex-
ist in a strange sort of mutual-
ism wildly unique in char-
acter but dependent on each
other for their identities. The
town and school support each
other, overlapping and sharing
culture in defining ways.
This is, after all, the town
where firetrucks are Carolina
blue.
My hometown would not
be what it is without UNC and
its student body. From student
involvement in desegregating
downtown businesses in the
1960s to the high number of
alumni populating local gov-
ernment today, the University
has helped mold this area.
And as a student, youll
spend at least the next four
years calling Chapel Hill home.
You ll eat at BSkis more
often than necessary, dis-
cover Carrboro after walking
too far down Franklin Street,
get lost while trying to find
Maple View Ice Cream, go to
your first off-campus party,
wake up the next morning
to recover at Ye Olde Waffle
Shoppe and slowly get to
know downtown as well as
your hometown Main Street.
But you ll be wasting pre-
cious time if you dont make
your stay in Chapel Hill about
more than just visiting.
As a UNC freshman, youre
coming into a town that
works in countless ways to
enhance your college experi-
ence.
Every fall, the town wel-
comes thousands of new stu-
dents as residents no small
feat. Between the protection
and services provided by town
government, the entertain-
ment, dining and retail offered
by area businesses and the
welcoming spirit of Chapel
Hillians, students have a lot to
thank the town for.
While youre here, look for
ways to pay it forward to the
town that hosts your educa-
tion. Chapel Hill has a rich
history of volunteer service,
engagement and activism a
history to which the class of
2017 should contribute.
Find a local nonprofit to
volunteer with, learn about
Chapel Hill government, stay
current on town issues find
ways to connect meaningfully
to this incredibly special area
during your time here.
So call me biased.
But this townie knows you
have it in you to be more than
a good visitor, but a good
neighbor.

CARRBORO GRAND OPENING IN AUGUST!
C
ongratulations on your
decision to attend
UNC. As an incom-
ing Tar Heel, you are about
to embark on a life-altering
journey.
You are probably feeling
plenty of strong emotions
and powerful thoughts as you
prepare for the upcoming fall
semester.
These concerns can
intensify when adding the
discussion of your sexual ori-
entation, gender identity and
gender expression.
Therefore, I would
encourage anyone who
identifies as lesbian, gay,
bisexual, transgender, queer
(LGBTQ), two-spirit and/
or same gender loving to
take advantage of the many
resources the University
offers to support you on your
journey.
At UNC, we have an
incredible LGBTQ Center
that provides numerous
resources, educational pro-
grams, social programs and
student support services to

look down and verify
existence of limbs.
Now assess yourself: Count
parts, lumps and features.
Consider what is and isnt
there. These are your limita-

Im kidding, but please do.
Two: Locate an atlas.
Im kidding. Use Google
Maps. The effort and design
that give print media like
atlases and encyclopedias
their air of confident author-
ity are the same shortcomings
that leave them hopelessly
outdated. Big British-y names
in bold print and astounding
numbers of editions dont
mean anything except that a
bunch of old white dudes got
together and agreed.
Kidding Google Maps is
notoriously unreliable.
Three: Take the atlas back
out of the trash can and read
the biggest print on the cover.
Where are you, and what does
that make you? Then find
the publishing information.
Who makes the objects, gad-

and how has that made you?
Where are they?
Im kidding, of course.
Rand McNally is based in

you find something youre
truly passionate about, some-

not just what time it is but
that there is even a thing
called time that you should be
keeping up with. Something
that holds your attention so
deeply youre unconscious of
everything else there is to do
and be done.
Nope, kidding. Passion
is important but you have
to tame it. Keep trying new

Instructions
for nding
yourself
Inclusiveness for all identities
who identify as sexual and
gender minorities and their
allies.
Whats particularly great
about both the LGBTQ
Center and SAGA is their
realization that oppression
does not happen in isola-
tion, so they actively work to
promote social justice wher-
ever systematic oppression
occurs.
There are many other
student-led sexual and gender
minority-focused organiza-
tions within the various
professional schools at UNC.
I speak from experience, as
I will be entering my senior
year in the fall.
When I was a first-year
student, I was extremely
interested in ways to get
involved on campus. That
curiosity led me to join
the LGBTQ Center volun-
teer committee that helps
plan Coming Out Week,
Transgender Week of
Awareness and Ally Week.
After such an amazing
experience as a member of
the volunteer committee, I
decided to deepen my com-
mitment as an intern doing
research about gender-neu-
tral housing.
This research led me
to head the Gender Non-
Specific Housing Coalition, a
collective of student organiza-
tions educating and advocat-
ing for the implementation
of a gender-neutral housing
option at UNC.
Ultimately, these oppor-
tunities have allowed me to
grow as a person and learn
about issues that impact all
of our intersecting identi-
ties.
Honestly, the climate at
UNC for LGBTQ, two-spirit
and same gender loving
individuals can be very hard
at times, but the LGBTQ
Center and various student
organizations are here to
welcome, affirm and assist
in your growth regardless of
sexual orientation, gender
identity and gender expres-
sion.

Five: Find people who let

become when you just throw
yourself into relationships,
unburdened by your compiled

minded individuals to share
experiences with.
Scratch that. Dont find
people like yourself find
people you want to be, and
then surpass them.
Kidding, again. How do
you know the person you
want to be is anything like the
you you ll be looking for when
youve had a little more time
to look? As long as youre
spending time with people,
youre doing something right.
And for everyone you meet,

Student government: breakdown of the branches
Legislative Branch
Student Congress comprises the legislative branch of student
government. Representatives are elected by the student body
by on-campus as well as off-campus districts.
The primary role of Student Congress is to allocate money
to various student organizations and events. All requests for
money from student organizations go through Congress.
Congress also passes resolutions related to self-governance
and serves as a check and balance to the other two branches.
Executive Branch
The executive branch is headed by the student body presi-
dent, who is elected by the student body. The president leads
the executive board of officers who head various committees
and handle external appointments and is an ex-officio mem-
ber of the Board of Trustees.
The president also has the power to sign or veto all legisla-
tion drafted by Student Congress, as well as introducing bills to
Congress.
Judicial Branch
The judicial branch is comprised of two parts: the Honor
Court and the Student Supreme Court.
The Honor Court deals with students who have academic or
conduct violations, while the Student Supreme Court handles
issues between members or groups of Student Congress.

A chance to
give back to
Chapel Hill
By Anna Long
Staff Writer
While coming to Chapel
Hill might make new stu-
dents feel out of place, one
of the best ways to feel like a
part of the community where
you live is to volunteer.
For the next generation
UNC students looking to
help local children further
their educational opportuni-
ties can volunteer in class-
rooms throughout the area.
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools volunteers can tutor
students, help in classrooms
and work with English as a
Second Language students,
among other activities.
Training varies based on what
volunteers want to do.
Students can apply to vol-
unteer at the beginning of each
semester. CHCCS will hold on-
campus registrations on Sept.
3, 5, 9 and 13 in the Student
Union. There is also an online
registration form, but students
will need to meet with staff
to determine placement in a
school, said Graig Meyer, direc-
tor of volunteer programs.
Meyer said there are usu-
ally 500 to 600 UNC students
volunteering in the school
system at a time. All schools
are located on bus routes.
Preserving local history
In one of the most ethni-
cally diverse neighborhoods
in Chapel Hill, the Marian
Cheek Jackson Center is orga-
nizing to preserve the his-
tory of the area and serve the
needs of the community.
Located in Chapel Hills
Northside neighborhood, the
community development and
history center works to help the
historically African-American
area maintain its identity.
Volunteers are needed
at the centers food pantry,
Heavenly Groceries, which
is operated out of St. Joseph
CME Church within walking
distance of campus.
Other opportunities to help
at the Jackson Center include
working on the organizations
local oral history archive and
distributing its Northside
News newsletter, community
action coordinator Brentton
Harrison said.
We kind of give you a run-
down of whats possible for
you to do what youre most
qualified to do, Harrison said.
Students can apply at any
time by going to the centers
office in St. Joseph CME
Church. All volunteers will
receive some training, but no
prior experience is necessary.
However, volunteers with
experience collecting oral
histories a big part of the
centers mission are appre-
ciated, Harrison said.
Help for the homeless
For 50 years, the Inter-
Faith Council has provided
basic services to combat hun-
ger, homelessness and poverty
in Chapel Hill and Carrboro.
Volunteers can help at the
IFCs two homeless shelters
the Community House mens
facility or HomeStart women
and childrens facility, work in
the food pantry and assist in
other service projects.
No prior experience is nec-
essary, but volunteers should
fill out an application, which
can be found on the councils
website, before attending a
volunteer orientation session.
Orientations are held
in Carrboro on the second
Tuesday of every other month.
Working with survivors
The Orange County Rape
Crisis Center helps survivors
of rape and sexual violence.
Volunteers can present edu-
cational programs in local
schools, work in the centers
office, lead support groups
and work directly with sur-
vivors, Executive Director
Shamecca Bryant said.
The crisis center provides
24/7 resources for survivors
of sexual assault, including
a help line and a companion
support program, Bryant said.
It will be anything from
going to the hospital to (pro-
viding) care to a client as well
as helping a client file a police
report, being with a client
when theyre getting legal
resources or just providing
crisis counseling, she said.
For people who may not
want to be on the crisis line
talking to clients, we also
have office volunteers who
help us with everything from
answering the door and the
phone to running errands for
us and doing a lot of adminis-
trative work for the agency.
Volunteers can apply
online at any time. No prior
experience is necessary, but
there is a 63-hour training
required to work with clients
or on the help line and a
39-hour training to work as
an educator in schools.
No training is needed to
volunteer at the crisis center
office on East Franklin Street.
Office volunteers help with
administrative work and are
always needed, Bryant said.

Student arts groups
enrich campus life
By Samantha Davis
Staff Writer
Various student arts groups
are among the array of orga-
nizations incoming freshmen
can join when they come to
UNC.
Wordsmiths
The Wordsmiths, a poetry
organization, creates a place
for the community to share
and enjoy poetry.
Tariq Luthun, former exec-
utive director for the group
and a founding member, said
he wanted to introduce poetry
to the UNC community.
I wanted to do something
that was more engaging to
the campus community and
offered people from all spec-
trums a place to share their
work and express themselves
creatively through poetry,
Luthun said.
Wordsmiths holds nine
to 10 events a year, includ-
ing a composite poetry event
every month, which includes
an open mic, a professional
speaker and a poetry slam.
We are a venue for other
individuals to make the
content, said Luthun, who
graduated in May.
Lauren Bullock, the incom-
ing executive director for the
group, stressed the impor-
tance of new members to the
organization.
Were definitely hoping to
expand our audience, not just
in terms of numbers but in
terms of diversity, she said.
Both Luthun and Bullock
encouraged audiences to
come out and partake in the
show, and said the group
keeps a manager position
open for incoming freshmen.
There is no membership
fee, there is no audition, you
just show up, Luthun said.
The Chapel Hill Players
The Chapel Hill Players,
known as CHIPS, is a sketch
comedy and improv group
well-known on and off campus.
Director and sophomore
Jonathan Hebert joined the
organization as a freshman.
I came to school knowing
about CHIPS, he said. I knew
how prestigious and awesome
it is to even have something
like that on campus.
Potential CHIPS members
first spend a semester in an
incubator group where they
are trained in improv comedy.
They then try out for the
main performance squad.
Hebert said there are many
perks of joining.
Improv is accessible to any-
one, he said. Its also a really
great group of people to just
hang around and laugh with.
CHIPS members prepare
for two shows a semester,
which feature both improv
games and comedy sketches.
The CHIPS incubator
group accepts all levels of
experience.
We want everyone to give
it a shot, Hebert said.
Blank Canvas
Blank Canvas is a dance
and choreography organiza-
tion inclusive to all skill levels,
schedules and areas of interest.
Robbie Anderson, presi-
dent of Blank Canvas, said
what drew him to this organi-
zation was its accessibility.
Blank Canvas is open
to dancers of all levels and
styles, and (its) also really
open to male dancers, said
Anderson, who has been a
member ever since attending
FallFest in his freshman year.
Anderson also said the
group has a flexible schedule.
Every semester there are up
to 30 dances, each with a set
rehearsal time once a week.
From this schedule, members
can sign up for the dances that
work best for them.
In the second week of
classes in the semester, inter-
ested students can take a
placement class where they
are given a skill level between
one and five. Dances are orga-
nized by skill level this way,
and members can choose any
level they want.
Im a level five, and I often
do lower-level dances as well
just because theyre really
fun and you make a lot more
friends, Anderson said.
Blank Canvas holds a
showcase each semester
where the dances are per-
formed. All styles are per-
formed, although jazz, hip-
hop and lyrical, a ballet-style
dance set to the lyrics of a
song, are the most popular.
Anderson said the group
has more than 300 members.
Most dance groups at
UNC are by audition only and
theyre really small, and ours,
it gives everyone an opportu-
nity to dance.

When facing uncertainty,
go with your gut
UNC arts deserve equal hype
I
arrived at UNC dream-
ing of a journalism
career in shades of black
and white. My dreams looked
more like a 1940s film-noir
flick about an ace reporter
than reality.
It was what I thought I
wanted but once I got here,
I wasnt so sure.
Now, two years later, Im
back to dreaming of being a
journalist. But when I look
ahead, its a real future I see.
That future started earlier
than I realized.
I wasnt born clutching a
red pen in my hand, but my
ambitions took root early. I
remember my first published
work a hand-scrawled
storybook, scribbled letters
looming huge and unwieldy.
I hungered for new words,
devouring books as soon as I
could read. I even remember
catching my first copy error
of sorts: asking my mom why
the word crossing had a
G at the end when she, her
Georgia drawl thicker than
honey, didnt pronounce it.
My parents knew they were
stuck with a child too curious
for comfort a child some-
times scolded for correcting
adults.
But it was that same rabid
curiosity that spurred my
first steps into The Daily Tar
Heels newsroom, a place Id
find solidarity both in nitpick-
iness and my earliest niche:
my intuitive love of words.
During my freshman year,
uncertainty crept into my
neatly packaged future plans. I
decided Id become a lawyer.
Im not sure if the ambi-
tion sprang from glamorous
images gleaned from Law
and Order marathons or
from a competitive bent to
prove myself in a long line
of all-male attorneys. But it
wasnt the path for me.
A friend asked if Id consid-
ered working for the DTH.
I thought, Why not? and
never looked back.
The curious part of me
never grew up. I still dissect
words piecemeal, each letter
taking on a life of its own. In
uncertainty, I returned to early
instinct and found my future.
So embrace uncertainty
when coming to college. Its the
best time youll ever have to be
uncertain. But its also the best
time to seize an opportunity.
And if youre uncertain,
look to your earliest instincts
for a clue. When I told my
dad Id decided on journal-
ism, he smiled and said, I
always knew you would.

W
hen I stepped onto
UNCs campus for
the first time after
spending seven years in arts
school, I was overwhelmed
to say the least.
During my first few
weeks, I noticed a few things
most people take sports
seriously, others might not
hold the arts in high regard
and homecoming is an
actual thing. (My arts high
school did not have sports
teams, so I always thought
the hype about homecom-
ing was an exaggeration. My
bad.)
Those first weeks made me
realize how important a strong
arts community was to me, and
with all of the sports fanatics, I
started to think maybe Chapel
Hill wasnt as arts-friendly as
Id thought it was.
But then I stumbled upon
Chapel Hills artistic gems
the Ackland Art Museum,
Carolina Performing Arts.
Now, sure, I might be biased
saying this because I grew up
surrounded by the arts, but
trust me when I say theyre a
valuable part of any education.
And with free admission
to the Ackland and $10 stu-
dent ticket prices for CPA
performances, theres no
excuse not to take advantage
of the arts.
Both venues offer experi-
ences that rival those in cities
like New York City. Just last
semester, the world premiere
of A Rite a collaborative
venture between world-
renowned modern dancer Bill
T. Jones and theater legend
Anne Bogart was held at
Memorial Hall.
This show accompanied
nine other world premieres
as a part of CPAs 2012-13
season.
Along with spending time
at Memorial Hall, many of my
weekends were spent perus-
ing the Ackland with friends
and family members who
came to visit.
From its semester-long
show, A Season of Japan, in
the fall to its post-1990s con-
temporary art exhibition in
the spring, the Ackland offers
a diverse collection.
Yoko Ono even did an
interactive installation at the
Ackland. Now, try and tell me
that isnt awesome.
So when composing your
UNC bucket list, be sure to
include numerous trips to
the Ackland and Memorial
Hall along with attending the
homecoming game.
You have no reason not to.
