Priyas light still shines

New policy to
ease transfer
process
Schools will offer deferred enrollment
for the lowest performing applicants.
By Danielle Chemtob
Staff Writer

DTH/KENDALL BAGLEY

n Friday, Jan. 29, friends and family of UNC graduate Priya Balagopal gathered in the Pit for a candlelit vigil
to honor her memory. Junior Anita Simha (center) was among those who lit candles. The vigil included several
speakers, who played influential roles in Priyas life. Priya Balagopal died by suicide earlier this month.

Fundraising page helps Dey victim


People have donated
money and even
offered a place to stay.
By Acy Jackson
Assistant University Editor

Annabel Chynces and her


sisters painted their toenails Tar
Heel blue to show how much
they appreciate the support
shown for their father.
Were definitely feeling the
love, Chynces said.
Chynces father, Gaylan
Bishop, suffered burns on
approximately 40 percent of his
body after an accident at Dey
Hall caused a power outage
throughout central campus on
Jan. 20.
Eyewitnesses said they saw
Bishop on fire come out of an
electrical closet on the side of
Dey Hall. This was confirmed
by Neal OBriant, a spokes-

person for the North Carolina


Department of Labor.
According to a GoFundMe
page created to support Bishop
and his family, he was in surgery
for a few hours and then was
moved to the North Carolina
Jaycee Burn Center at UNC
Hospitals.
He remains in the intensive
care unit in critical condition.
Chynces, who is from out of
state but is currently staying in
Chapel Hill with her family, said
Bishop is expected to remain at
the burn center until October,
but after that he will continue his
recovery with physical therapy.
Everything is kind of upside
down, she said.
In the four days since it was
posted, the GoFundMe page has
raised over $14,430.
The family has received visits,
cards, balloons, gifts and food
as well as the support from the
GoFundMe page.
Its been absolutely unreal

how much support weve felt at


this point, Chynces said.
Two of the people donating to the page are Kevin
Guskiewicz, the dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences,
and his wife Amy.
Hes a member of the UNC
family and it sounds like his
family could really use some support right now, she said.
Guskiewicz, whose family gave a $200 donation, said
because her family has four children, like the Bishop family, they
understood what kind of support
they needed.
The UNC community should
come together whenever they
can to help students, faculty,
staff. You know, whatever someone can give is appreciated and
helpful, she said.
Another person active on the
GoFundMe page was nursing
professor Jean Davison, who
heard about the page through
an email from the nursing

school.
Her post said, we live near
UNC burn center if your family needs a place to stay while
visiting.
Davison said she would have
appreciated someone reaching
out in that manner if she was in
the Bishops situation.
I myself have had situations
like that where my brother went
through a bout of cancer. My
son, when he was little, had
heart surgery, so I know how
that can be, she said.
Chynces said the family is
grateful for support coming
in from many different places,
such as the GoFundMe, church
groups and the University.
Weve had overwhelming
support from people from the
University, she said.
Definitely feeling the love
and the family vibe from everyone.

Students considering semesters off can seek assistance


Students say semesters
off can help for
students with a plan.
By Anyssa Reddix
Senior Writer

For junior Ryan Fockler, balancing UNC and home life simply became too much.
The coupling of school and
everything family, work, things
like that outside of school got
to be a lot, Fockler said. And the
school got too overwhelming.
Fockler, a biomedical engineering major, is no stranger to stress,
but he decided to take off part
of the fall semester and all of the
spring semester to find stability.
Its definitely made the stress
more bearable, but there are
other things like what are you
doing to do with your time off
and having it on your transcripts,
Fockler said. When youre looking for a job, people ask what you
did with the time. So Im looking
for internships to fill up the time.
Fockler stopped attending
classes in early October, but his
medical withdrawal was not official until November for financial
aid reasons.
Waiting has an effect, he
said. It makes it so that I dont
have to pay the school back,
otherwise its prorated and they
have to charge.
While Fockler originally
planned on only taking a semester

DTH/CHICHI ZHU
(From left) Fred Cave and Christopher Faison are among those who work with students who take semesters off.

off, classes for his major have such


an exact sequencing that it made
more sense to take an year off to
get back on track when he returns.
What I want to do is start in
the summer, and that will make
it easier during the school year
to balance everything, he said.

Finding a balance
Director of Counseling and
Psychological Services Allen
OBarr said stories like Focklers
students stopping out to

manage stress are not out of


the ordinary.
It actually happens quite frequently, OBarr said.
If students come to CAPS and
seem like they are not benefiting
from being in class, they are often
advised to take a semester off.
Its not a mandate, its just a
recommendation, OBarr said.
If we ever see someone who is
really performing poorly academically, we generally suggest
taking a little time off to get
themselves together psychologi-

cally so they can perform better.


OBarr said many factors,
such as anxiety, depression or
relationship issues, can lead to
this decision.
Academic success requires an
individual to be functioning well
most of the time, he said.
Senior Filly Jones experienced
some of these emotional triggers
when deciding to take time off.
I had a lot of stuff going on
emotionally for a long time

Growing up in a single-parent household, UNC


junior Erik Carlos II knew he could never afford a
four-year university.
But while attending Fayetteville Technical
Community College, Carlos enrolled in a program
called the Carolina Student Transfer Excellence
Program (C-STEP), which offered him guaranteed admission to UNC as long as he met a GPA
requirement.
Carlos said guaranteed admissions programs
like C-STEP give low-income students hope.
When you are faced with financial burdens, it
tends to limit your thinking, he said. You tend
to think, Well I cant because I dont have the
opportunity, I dont have the resources. So at least
having the hope of getting accepted will allow
them to think about, OK, what do I want to be
when I get here? It allows them to further think
about their future.
State legislators created the North Carolina
Guaranteed Admission Program in fall of 2015,
which is slated to be implemented at all UNCsystem schools and community colleges in the
2017-18 school year.
Within the program, schools can accept students
and require they attend community college for two
years prior to enrolling in the university as a junior.
Its going to affect the kids in that bottom quartile academically who have traditionally found the
university curriculum to be very challenging, said
Rep. Craig Horn, R-Union. Weve got a lot of kids
going to college, spending a lot of money, dropping
out and having nothing to show for it.
The Guaranteed Admission Program differs
from current transferring policies, as students
apply to specific UNC institutions as high schoolers and then earn their associates degree.
The Board of Governors and the Community
College system will report on the policys effects
on enrollment and the number of student participants by March 1.
But Jeannette Moore, chairperson of the
Faculty Senate at N.C. State University, said in an
email the policy could cause universities to turn
even more applicants away.
It is my understanding that we will not be
increasing capacity, which means deferring
admission for some students will require us to
reduce the number of admitted students in other
areas, she said.
But Board of Governors member Marty Kotis
said he expected the policy would have little
impact on enrollment.
If it did, youd be looking at a two-year possible impact before it would jump back, Kotis said.
He said one concern is logistical.
How do we know who is coming when at
which school? We also dont necessarily know
who is going to stay in school, Kotis said.
Jenna Robinson, president of the Pope Center
for Higher Education Policy, said existing transfer
policies will ease the programs implementation.
I dont think it will be that difficult to implement because the community colleges and the
UNC-system already have a good relationship,
she said. We know that transfer students have
done fairly well once they get to the UNC system.
But a new study released by the Community
College Research Center revealed only 14 percent of
community college students nationwide transfer to
a four-year university and graduate within six years.
According to UNCs Office of Institutional
Research and Assessment, retention of transfer
students at UNC is slightly higher as 22.3
percent of those accepted as juniors in the fall of
2013 are currently here for a third year.
Junior Kirstyn Waller transferred to UNC
in the fall from Guilford Technical Community
College. To complete her requirements in two
years, Waller said she had to overload each
semester in community college.
Though she was guaranteed a place as a junior
at one of the UNC-system schools, she said the
process required a lot of trial and error.
Most of the advice that I got from professors
was a lot better than the advice that I got from
specific advisors, Waller said.
She said many students in her previous program
designed for students who plan on transferring
are still meeting preliminary requirements or
simply chose to earn an associates degree.
That makes sense because the advising there
is honestly a lot more geared towards students
who are just trying to stop with the associates,
she said.
Community colleges might need to update
their curriculum to aid students looking to transfer under the guaranteed program, Horn said.
He said the Guaranteed Admission Program
could help rural students transition to college
life and would ease financial constraints felt by
students transferring.
Most of those kids dont stick around long
enough to graduate. But they end up with lots
of debt and the state ends up spending a lot of
money. I believe it is better to offer those students
an opportunity.

Zayn Maliks new single is dirty and raw


By Morgan Howard
Staff Writer

This past weekend, the


musical reign of Zayn Malik
began.
Alright, it wasnt that dramatic. But Zayn did finally
drop new music on Jan. 29,
and the world collectively
lost its chill. He released
PILLOWTALK as the first
single from his upcoming
album, Mind of Mine.
From the moment the beat
starts you cant help but feel
the vibe. Then the combination
of the first lyrics of, climb on
board, well go slow and high
tempo, and Zayns voice piques
your interest. The bridge
comes, and youre hooked.
When the chorus hits, there is
officially no going back.

What really makes this


song though is the contrasting and suggestive lyrics.
They focus on the opposite
spectrums that sex and the
bedroom can represent,
explaining, its our paradise,
its our war zone.
Its no secret that Zayn has
amazing vocals, but mixed
with hints of R&B and a
catchy pop feel, this single
was the perfect introduction
of him as a solo artist.
Zayn Malik already has a
strong fan base, yet (according to his tweets from Friday)
he finds the response to the
single crazy.

Lane stays calm


despite miscues
By Blake Richardson
Staff Writer

Morgan Lane landed on


the balance beam and swayed
upon impact.
Lane had just began her
routine, but she was already
struggling to stay balanced.
And with the North Carolina
gymnastics team facing No.
11 George Washington, she
couldnt afford to fall.
The sophomore regained
her composure after the wobble, but the moments Lane
spent keeping her balance
came at a cost she had to
change her routine.
But the judges didnt know
that.
After making some minor
adjustments, Lane hid her
errors and remained poised on
the beam. Coach Derek Galvin
said Lanes miscues went undetected, as she still included all
the points in her routine.
The Colonials snagged a
194.950-194.275 win over
UNC in Carmichael Arena on
Saturday. But it was Lanes
versatility when recovering from missteps that kept
North Carolina in contention.
If I didnt know what her
routine was supposed to be, I
wouldnt be able to tell, said
senior Sarah Peterson. So she
did a really great job of recovering from that and finishing
out with routines.
Her proudest moment on
the beam was her dismount.
Lane has been working on
her beam dismount in practice after struggling with it
in the past. On Saturday, the
landing was a success.
I do so many every day,
she said, so that was really
nice to see how hard work
pays off.
With the improvised routine, Lane dazzled the judges
and was awarded a 9.850.

The score set a season-high


on the balance beam for Lane
and established a four-way
tie for first place between
Lane, Peterson and George
Washington sophomores Alex
Zois and Liz Pfeiler.
She didnt do her series
that she normally trains and
she ended up winning beam,
Peterson said. So it was
pretty cool.
With Lane and Peterson
posting season-bests, UNC
tallied a 48.725 on the beam
its highest scoring rotation
of the day. Peterson was excited by this outcome because
her team typically struggles
on the beam.
Lanes floor routine did not
follow the original plan either.
But that was OK. Following
what she did on the beam,
Lane swapped the order of
some of her flips.
The judges didnt notice
the difference. They awarded
her a score of 9.825, which
was enough for Lane to claim
first place.
Morgan is just such a
delightful competitor, particularly on floor, Galvin said.
Shes got really just a happy
quality to what she does on
floor the way she performs
She can win everybodys heart
in that event.
Lane finished the allaround with a 39.075, which
was the highest score on the
team and second in the meet.
Her ability to improvise and
stay composed under pressure
propelled her to this result.
We practice, you know,
how do you recover when you
make a mistake, so mentally
they know how to do that,
Galvin said. Whether they
actually do it in competition
remains to be seen.
Morgan did it.

FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT

cgoodson, on availability of off-campus housing for employees

Sophomore assistant opinion editor


from Randleman.
Email: opinion@dailytarheel.com

One time in my after school


care program, a kid punched
me in the stomach, saying he
wanted to leave marks on my
fat body for the rest of my
life. I was not brave enough to
tell anyone about this instance
and it has bothered me ever
since. That night I prayed that
God would kill me. This all
happened when I was 13 years
old. It didnt stop.
In the following years,
my self-confidence in social
spheres dropped, and to compensate, I would often revert
to an ego-driven state of pseudo-positivity. It didnt help.
What really got to me was
that even in church, a place
where friendliness was supposed to be extended to all,
I sat by myself, afraid to talk
to anyone and feeling utterly
worthless. To this day, when
I am at my home church, I
instantly revert back to that
feeling of isolation.
So fast-forward to today I
am at UNC, away from all of
those places, working at a job I
love. I have friends who encourage my passions, and I still talk
to my family everyday. By all
accounts, my life is going well,
and I consider myself extremely
privileged to be here.
Yet, I still feel uncomfortable talking about psychological problems, even though
it impacts me everyday.
Whenever I get a bad grade or
if a friend does not respond to
a message or a whole other
array of issues I retreat back
into this shell of isolation. The
feeling of sitting alone in youth
group returns, and I tell myself
maybe life would be better
off if I had no friends or that
everyone does not actually care
about me something I know
is all my head. But even if these
feelings are not rational, they
are real and they terrify me.
To add onto all of it, I hate
deadtime. So in my mind, the
idea of stopping whatever it is
I am doing to practice self-care
is not something I tend to pursue. I dont like talking about
my isolationism and have a
hard time conveying how I am
feeling to others.
Obviously, I am not qualified to write an advice column,
so that is not what this is. This
probably wont give you, me or
anyone else a new understanding of life, but it is how I feel
about dealing with depression.
So to those out there like me
I know you hate listening to
other people, but I would just
like to offer this:
Do not be like me and let past
experiences dictate your idea of
self-worth. In the words of one
of my favorite bands, youre an
irreplaceable human soul with
your own understanding of
what it means to suffer
So take that understanding and channel it. For me, it
is going to work everyday and
writing. It may not be the traditional idea of self-care that
is thankfully helping so many
others on this campus, and,
honestly, often it does not make
me any happier. But trust me, I
spent a lot of years trying to pretend my problems were not real,
and it didnt do me any good.

My hope is that the kids look at a creation


and get that, Aha! moment, and it will
spark their creativity

If all the students lived on campus, that


would free up enough to enable everyone
who works for UNC to live in Chapel Hill.

EDITORIAL

Power lies in the state


The future of UNC
must be fought
through elections.

ctivism is, by
definition, risking something.
In the case of the protestors at Tuesdays Board of
Governors meeting, the
activists present risked
their physical well-being,
their arrest records and,
in the case of the UNC
student charged with a felony, their very democratic
franchise.
We respect and
applaud, without regard to
points of political agreement, the courage of those
protestors that were tenacious enough to attend an
emergency meeting, make
their concerns known and
put their own bodies on
the line in support of their
strong convictions.
In any conflict, tactics
are a matter of battleground and resources at
hand. Strategy contains
a longer view portfolio of
various tactics to achieve
strategic goals. They are
chosen based on historical
efficacy and momentary
instinct.
The Daily Tar Heels
editorial board has largely
positioned itself strategically, if not tactically, in
view of the same goal
as the activists forcibly
removed last week. We

believe that this current


iteration of the Board
of Governors, while not
necessarily committed to
malice, are immovably
committed to a vision of
the UNC system that cannot serve its stated mission toward the citizens of
North Carolina.
Tuesdays event,
abstracted, is arguably visible evidence of the brute
force of the state steamrolling those who, feeling
unheard and disenfranchised, responded through
bypass of stated rules of
institutional engagement.
But we as a board would
be remiss to not consider
the counterargument.
The event also arguably showed the Board of
Governors, with the physical help of the Department
of Public Safety staff that
protects them, doing what
they are appointed to do:
continue the functional
business of the UNC system, balanced between
their best judgment and
the agendas of those elected officials that appointed
them. If one believes that
this Board of Governors,
while legally appointed,
are unfit to serve, under
the constraints of North
Carolinas democratic
process one has a clear
avenue of action: win state
elections.
Tactics of the kind
demonstrated last week

serve a crucial strategic


purpose: raising visibility of the conflict and
ones opponent. But the
ultimate goal is to win
an iteration of the BOG
that fights for a version
of the UNC system that
we as a community feel
serves both ourselves and
the Universitys mission
to the state. With that as
the case, control of those
that control the BOG must
be exercised. Logically
then one must ask how to
change the employers of
the employees.
This, of course, leads
those in the UNC community who wish for change
to the grinding and slow
labor of conversation,
advocacy, successful argument, political mobilization and coalition building
that leads to different electoral outcomes. If you feel
strongly as to the actions
of the Board of Governors,
let your feelings be known
to your home community
in North Carolina.
In short: Start winning
elections in your favor.
Activism does not necessarily mean risking ones
body as a tactic. But it
means risking something.
In the case of the teethgritting labor previously
mentioned, it means going
to ones home and risking
ones time, standing and
network in sight of a goal
higher than oneself.

EDITORIAL

Take a stand for once


The SBP should
be willing to take
political stances.

h... Welcome back


to February. Where
the Pit and your
social media becomes
dominated with one thing
and one thing only: UNCs
student body president
election. This election is
often decided by who has
the fanciest publicity materials. It should be decided
by the most substantive
platforms or approach
for effecting some muchneeded change.
We urge the four candidates currently running
for student body president
(Bradley Opere, Wilson
Sink, John Taylor and
Andrew Williamson) to
reverse the trend of SBPs
depoliticizing themselves.
We urge them instead to
understand their position
as one inherently steeped
in political decisions.
Whoever wins will be an
elected official. Students
are voting for an executive; making decisions
about controversial issues

and being publicly political challenges one to raise


their game when one places oneself on the ballot.
Elected officials make
choices on behalf of students. When we elect
officials for our municipal,
state or federal government, they do not try
to separate the politics
from their decision making. Instead, they often
do quite the opposite. If
students view student government as an opportunity to engage in government-type bureaucracies
prior to entering the real
government, why do they
have such a radically different, apolitical approach
than our other politicians?
We also have selfish
reasonings in asking for a
more political approach.
The tenures of SBPs are
largely boring affairs,
embroiled with internal
politics and supposed
meetings with administration. SBP candidates often
complain most students
lack awareness about the
SBP position. Making politically charged decisions can
spice up the elections and

get students to feel some


level of investment in our
student government.
Lastly, we recognize
SBPs in practice often have
less power than indicated
by their ambitious platforms. However, you have
a responsibility to use your
platform as the SBP to
publicly and transparently
voice a stance even if
it might not be a popular
one on campus issues.
This can take the form of
releasing a statement or
actively attending a rally.
As constituents, we have a
right to know where candidates stand and what
specific issues they value.
Also, unlike faculty or staff,
candidates are students and
will not be fired or removed
for their political decisions.
For the sake of our
sanity and the future
of our university, these
candidates must recognize their future as a
decision-maker at this
critical juncture in our
University. Disengaging
from these issues only
reinforces the existing
power forces instead of
challenging them.

TO THE EDITOR:
This letter is in response
to the recent article regarding LGBTQ members in
Greek organizations across
campus.
As a queer student not
involved in Greek life at
UNC, I would wholeheartedly disagree with
Seth Patersons statement
that homophobia is not
a problem within the
Interfraternity Council.
It would seem to me that
LGBTQ students, as well as
students of color, are those
most ostracized and marginalized by IFC fraternities.
LGBTQ students are
repeatedly told by IFC
fraternity members that
if they were to pledge a
fraternity, they would not
receive a bid because they
are LGBTQ. This is not
something that is alluded
to; these are words coming directly from those
IFC fraternity members
who control the bidding
process.
While I sympathize with
Mr. Patersons discomfort
in painting stereotypes
about the IFC community,
I challenge him to reconsider his implication that
all LGBTQ students are
ineligible, uncapable or
undeserving of membership within the IFC merely
due to their sexual or gender identity. Furthermore,
I see his statement that
you cannot force an environment of inclusion and
mutual tolerance as merely
a disguise for bigotry and
an excuse for maintaining
the status quo of institutionalized LGBTQ discrimination.
I hope that IFC fraternities would consider
adopting a non-discrimination ordinance that
would allow interested
LGBTQ students to pledge
those organizations.
Perhaps the best way to
foster an LGBTQ-friendly
environment in Greek life
at UNC is through mutual
understanding of the lived
experiences of LGBTQ
students.

E-minor is taking
steps to be diverse
TO THE EDITOR:
We were delighted with
your editorial Diversity
starts in the classroom
for entrepreneurship,
and your suggestions for
improving the Minor in
Entrepreneurship were
thoughtful and timely. As
teaching faculty for the
minor, we share your concerns, and as a result, last
year we made diversity one
of our three priorities for
2016 and beyond.
Our first step was to
increase diversity in our faculty (just as you suggested),
and we arranged, largely
through private funding,
to create our own Mod
Squad of new entrepreneurs-in-residence (EIRs):

one white male, one white


female and one AfricanAmerican male. All three
are experienced entrepreneurs with deep experience
in the startup world.
Almost immediately,
the texture and scope
of conversations in the
minor changed. Our goal
of increased participation
in the minor by students
of color and women has
become a reality.
Our instructors and
entrepreneur in residence
now look more like our
student population. We
have also embarked on the
following:
Ongoing conversations
with minority students and
women to see how we can
be more effective in addressing their needs;
Co-hosting a dinner
with Taffye Clayton to help
expose students of color to
the benefits of entrepreneurship in general and the
E-minor in particular;
Beginning a partnership with Invictus,
Durhams hot minority coworking space and inviting
the co-founder of Invictus
to play a role on our
instructional team;
Creating a
Memorandum of
Understanding between
the E-minor and the Sonja
Haynes Stone Center with
the aim of crafting a cobranded innovation space for
thought leadership around
the topic of diversity;
Meeting with the
Greek Alliance Council
to update them on the
E-minor. Our approach to
this group of diverse leaders is that they dont have
to be entrepreneurs to have
a good life but they do
need to be entrepreneurial
in their thinking. Further
meetings with other fraternities and sororities are
planned.
All of us on the E-minor
team are entrepreneurs,
whether we hail from the
world of startups or the
academic arena. We are
wired to take risks, fail,
get up, take risks and fail
again all on the path to
eventual success. We are
excited about where we
are going and look forward
to attacking this diversity
issue with real thoughtleadership. Jack Canfield
said, Everything you want
is on the other side of fear.
We are not afraid.

E-minor instructional team

BOCC platforms announced at forum


Candidates gave
opinions on housing,
bonds and funding.
By Janna Childers
Staff Writer

Candidates for the Orange


County Board of County
Commissioners addressed
the concerns of residents at a
forum Saturday, discussing a
range of issues including possible bond money allocation,
affordable housing and light
rail construction.
The forum, sponsored
by the Orange County
Democratic Party, took

SEMESTERS OFF

FROM PAGE 1

since I was a freshman. It all


kind of built up to a point
that I was off track, Jones
said.
Jones, an African American
and Diaspora Studies major,
withdrew during 2014-15
winter break and took off
spring and fall 2015.
I didnt know where I was
going or what I was doing,
Jones said. I decided I needed to take a step back.
Jones said taking time off
helped her develop professional skills.
It was a good time for me

place at the Village Diner in


Hillsborough.
Andy Cagle, Matt Hughes
and Mark Marcoplos, running for the at large seat on
the board, discussed their
community involvement and
their thoughts on issues facing the county.
Renee Price, incumbent,
and Bonnie Hauser are
competing for the open seat
representing District 2 on the
board.
Cagle, an environmental
contractor, said his involvement in construction, agriculture and emergency services
qualifies him for a seat on the
board.
You will see me in your
to dedicate myself to work
and figure out what I want to
do and go back to school with
the mindset to work and be
focused, she said.
Jones said the process
of leaving wasnt difficult.
Because she left between
semesters, she just checked
the withdrawal option on
Connect Carolina.
Now shes transitioning
back into school. With only
12 hours left to complete her
degree, she is back as a parttime student this semester
and will finish in two semesters while working full time.

Whats missing is we dont have a plan


for affordable housing.

community, Cagle said.


Hughes, former chairperson of the Orange County
Democratic Party, said he
was running because Orange
County is his home and he
wants it to continue to be
affordable for its residents.
I know affordable housing because I grew up in substandard housing, Hughes
said.
Marcoplos, owner of
Marcoplos Construction,

said he has been involved in


the county for decades and
hopes to continue his work in
energy efficient development,
affordable housing and living
wage standards as a county
commissioner.
Im 62 years old. Im not
running to start a political
career, Marcoplos said
Marcoplos said one way
to generate income for the
county is involve the agriculture sector in the production

of hemp.
Its now legal to grow
industrial hemp in North
Carolina, Marcoplos said.
Price has served on the
board since 2012.
She cited milestones she
helped achieve while on the
board, including the Cedar
Grove Community Center
set to open in March, new
rural and urban bus routes
and the updated sewer system.
Price said her experience
in city planning and her
involvement in the community was evidence of her
responsiveness as a county
commissioner.
I think we are open to

Experts advice

and then graduate than to stop


out, try to save up money and
then come back, Johnson said.
Once youve made that
break in school, its often hard
to come back.
Johnson said students
dont always know that financial aid can change during the
year if circumstances change.
We want to do what we
can to keep you enrolled, he
said.
Faison said the many
resources on campus to help
struggling students arent
always obvious.
The Learning Center does
a really good job from what I
can tell, he said. Academic

Advising, but in particular,


the Hardin Hub. They are
an extension of advising and
they have extended hours.
Students of color tend to utilize that resource as well.
Faison said the Hardin
Hubs hours and location on
South Campus make it easier
for students to find the time
to go compared to the Steele
location.
I dont think enough students reach out or know about
us when things are going on,
Faison said. A lot of the time,
after they leave, theyll come
back and find out about us.
Fockler said students
considering taking time off

Bonnie Hauser
District 2 county commissioner candidate

Chris Faison, coordinator for UNC Men of Color


Engagement, said money
issues and family difficulties
are one of the two main reasons students stop-out, especially students of color.
Eric Johnson, assistant
director for policy analysis &
communication for the Office
of Scholarship and Student
Aid, said taking a semester off
isnt always the solution for
financial insecurity.
In general, it would be better to muscle through, take out
some loans if you need to complete the semester of school

what you have to say, Price


said.
Hauser, who has a background in business, said she
wanted to improve school
funding and bring in more
businesses and jobs.
She said her love of financial records has helped her
understand how the county
spends their money and
would help her as a commissioner, especially concerning
the affordable housing allotment of the possible $120
million bond.
Whats missing is we dont
have a plan for affordable
housing, Hauser said.
@janna_childers
city@dailytarheel.com
should weigh the consequences before acting.
If you feel like the stress
is too much, the school will
always be here, Fockler said.
But have an idea of how
youre going to fix whatever it
is youre trying to fix.
Jones warned students not
to waste time if they know
what they need.
My grades would have
been so much better if I had
taken a break when I wanted
to, Jones said. At the end of
the day, if you have to take
time off to finish strong, thats
what you should do.

Lego-palooza celebrates 12th year at Morehead


By Burhan Kadibhai
Staff Writer

Star Wars spaceships, a


rendition of Vincent van
Goghs The Starry Night
and zombie petting zoos
were only a few of the
inspired Lego constructions
on display during Morehead
Planetarium and Science
Centers Lego-palooza event
this Saturday and Sunday.
The N.C. Lego Users
Group, known as NCLUG,
held the event at the
Morehead Planetarium. This
was the 12th time since its
conception in 2005.
NCLUG member Joe
Evangelista organized this
years Lego-palooza.
Evangelista said the
partnership with Morehead

Planetarium and Legopalooza started after school


events that continued to grow
and resulted in the creation of
the event.
For his display, Evangelista
created a futuristic town
highlighted with a robotic
space-train monorail.
My hope is that the kids
look at creation and get
that, Aha! moment, and
it will spark their creativity so that they want to go
home and build and create,
Evangelista said.
Other Lego creations
presented during the event
included a table-sized forest scene, a collection of
Lego Gundam Wings and a
model of a beach town being
attacked by a flying space
monster.

Among the space-themed


displays was a depiction of a
fictional planet called Rodia
that was featured in the Star
Wars franchise.
The display was created
by Ocey Newsome-Rogers,
an NCLUG member from
Asheville.
Newsome-Rogers said he
made the display entirely
from different sets of Legos.
He said he began the sculpture with a Lego toy flower,
eventually constructing a
planet over the course of a
month.
Im a lifelong fan of toys,
and I feel that the younger
generation has started to view
Legos as a really static toy,
Newsome-Rogers said.
I feel like the imagination has started to fade, and

was an interactive exhibit
that allowed visitors to build

Democrats challenge Burr in US Senate


By Audrey Wells
Staff Writer

When North Carolina voters head to the polls March 15,


the presidency is not the only
election in mind democrats
will choose between four candidates to face Sen. Richard
Burr in the U.S. Senate race.
Burrs tenure in the state
Senate has lasted 12 years, but
he is likely to be challenged
by democratic frontrunner
Deborah Ross, a former state
representative. Kevin Griffin,
president and CEO of a staffing organization in Durham;
Ernest Reeves, a retired Army
captain; and Chris Rey, mayor
of Spring Lake, join Ross in
the primaries.
Griffin said he decided
to run to share his business
perspective.
Thats a great impact on a
personal level, but I want to
take that to a broader market, he said.
Never having worked in
politics, Griffin said he is not
jaded and can focus on new
ideas rather than defending a
political record.
His campaign highly values
transparency, and he said
most situations in life come
down to what information

is accessible to the populace


and what tools they can use to
achieve their goals.
Ross said she has worked
on public projects, intermodal
transportation in the Triangle
and renewable energy
statewide. Economic security is particularly important
because not all citizens have
recovered from the recession,
she said. She said she would
also prioritize education.
College should be affordable and accessible, and student loans cant put college
students in so much debt that
they cant get on with their
lives when they graduate, she
said. And Richard Burr has
a horrible record on student
loan issues.
The remaining candidates
could not be reached for comment.
Steven Greene, a political
science professor at N.C. State
University, said Ross is a
strong favorite because others
lack name recognition.
Shes got the best name
among democrats, and shes
got support and endorsements from groups in the
Democratic Party that matter,
he said.
Greene said given Ross
current edge and the lack of

historical precedent in favor of


underdogs, its hard to imagine
a scenario where the other candidates could overtake her.
Its hard to catch up in a
sense to overtake somebody
whos in the lead and has
experience with fundraising
and seems to be connected
with the right people, he said.
But ultimately, its hard
to know what to expect,
said Matt Hughes, a candidate for Orange County
Commissioner who was
previously chairperson of the
Orange County Democratic
Party. It depends on what
kind of campaign the candidates run, he said.
With the primary being
moved from May to March,
that doesnt give the candidates a lot of time to run a
race, he said.
Hughes said he thinks students who would be voting in
Orange County will have an
impact on the primary.
It will fall to candidates to
engage students so they will
cast their votes early, he said.
The charge to each of the
people is take the time to
know what youre voting for,
Griffin said.

It once was lost but now is


found.
Following a 30-point outburst at Florida State, Marcus
Paige the ACC Preseason
Co-Player of the Year mustered 15 points over the next
four games, the lowest fourgame output of his career.
And after hitting a 3-pointer
in a school-record 41 consecutive games, the North Carolina
guard had missed 18 in a row
entering Saturday.
Even Lazarus would have
marveled at the prospect of
Paige resurrecting his shot.
Ive never missed that many
shots in a row in my life, he said.
But on Saturday, the senior

sporting a closer cut and a


revived confidence severed
his shooting slump, scoring
12 points and sinking three
3-pointers in No. 2 UNCs 89-62
win over Boston College.
Sometimes he just cant hit
the bottom of the net, senior
Brice Johnson said. Some
nights he cant miss.
Maybe it was the practice.
In the days before facing the
Eagles (7-14, 0-8 ACC), Paige
took aim at a routine shooting drill. Five minutes to make
as many shots possible: three
3-pointers, then a 2-pointer.
Three, then a two. Repeat.
The UNC (19-2, 8-0 ACC)
coaches expected a score of 55.
Paiges record was 77 but he
wanted more.
First, he scored 81. Then, 81
again. He couldnt miss.
He was just staying and putting up extra shots, guard Joel
Berry said. He always does that,
but I think he paid a little more
attention to what he was doing.

Maybe it was the research.


During his four-game stretch
of futility, Paige watched clips of
every shot he took first, the
makes; then, the misses.
On each miss, he faded away
and released too soon, stopping
short on his follow-through.
On his first 3-point try on
Saturday, the senior stood tall,
rose to his apex and let it fly.
The follow-through was perfect and his subsequent sigh
of relief was impossible to hide.
The place erupted when he
hit the first three, Johnson said.
Its kind of great just to see him
knock down shots.
Maybe it was the shots that
didnt count.
Early in the first half, with
UNC trailing by three, Johnson
dove for a loose ball as the shot
clock struck zero for the Eagles.
The forward flipped it to
Paige, who unleashed an uncontested 3-pointer with a perfect follow-through, no less.
The shot didnt count, but the

crowd pledged its support, forcing a smile onto Paiges face.


I felt great on the first look,
so I just decided to get a couple
extras up just to test the gun
out, he said, grinning. Make
sure it was working.
But maybe it was the hair.
Maybe like Samson before
him the power of Paiges shot
lies in the length of his locks.
It really has nothing to do
with my shooting, honestly
Paige said of his new look. This
is the way Im used to having it.
Its more about making my girlfriend happy that I look good.
On Saturday, Paige reclaimed
the hearts of the UNC faithful,
reanimating his legendary shot
before 20,208 witnesses.
Theyre trying to lift me up,
cheer when I make a shot he
said. Theyre just trying to push
me through it, and I thank them
for that.
And thus, the legend returns.

RALEIGH Twenty-one chairs sat to the left


of the scorers table inside Broughton High School
on Sunday.
Twenty of them red frames and white cushions housed members of the North Carolina
womens basketball team. The 21st remained
empty, amplifying the absence of Coach Sylvia
Hatchell, who served the first of two one-game
suspensions as the Tar Heels took on N.C. State.
The last time Hatchell missed a game was when
she sat out the 2013-14 season while battling leukemia. Then, UNCs players rallied around their
coach and rocketed into the Elite Eight.
But without their leader on Sunday, the Tar
Heels could not find momentum, falling hard to
the Wolfpack 78-49.
We have champions in our locker room,
and they want to play for Coach Hatchell. They
love Coach Hatchell, said associate head coach
Andrew Calder. Its a situation weve been dealt
with, and were just looking to fight through it.
UNC announced Saturday that Hatchell
would serve two one-game suspensions. The first
stemmed from its game against Duke on Jan. 24,
when Hatchell made contact with an official.
The second, which Hatchell will serve when
the Tar Heels (12-11, 2-6 ACC) play Boston
College on Feb. 7, comes from the NCAA, which
said the coach committed a Level III violation
pertaining to activities that simulate game day
introductions of prospects during an official visit.
With Hatchell out, Calder who filled in for
Hatchell during the 2013-14 season took on the
task of getting the Tar Heels their first win since
Jan. 7. And as the first half played out, it looked
like North Carolina would give the Wolfpack (166, 7-2 ACC) a game. The first 20 minutes featured
two ties and eight lead changes, and at the intermission, the Tar Heels trailed by just five.
That deficit ballooned to double digits less
than five minutes into the second half. And without their leader, UNC played the rest of the quarter lacking a spark. The Wolfpack took advantage.
I think its definitely difficult for us to feed off
of each other, said redshirt senior Erika Johnson.
All of us are emotional in our own way, but
Coach Hatchell definitely gets us back on track.
N.C. State outscored UNC 28-11 in the third
quarter, putting the game out of reach before the
final period even began. Despite Calders best
efforts, he could not replicate the inspiration of
his longtime compatriot.
We love Coach Calder, said sophomore guard
Jamie Cherry, but hes no Coach Hatchell.
No one in the first 20 chairs was. It was the 21st
the empty one that made the greatest impact.

Chloe Ouellet-Pizer has been


working on her aggression.
On Sunday, it showed.
When the No. 5 North Carolina
womens tennis swept No. 9 Texas
A&M 4-0 on Sunday, Ouellet-Pizer
used her extra practice to step up
for her team.
Even the two days we had off in
the last week, shes been out here
hitting for two to three hours extra
on her own, Coach Brian Kalbas
said. So shes doing a lot of work
that nobody really sees thats really
paying off.
The first-year won her doubles
match to lock in the first point of
the day and clinched a swift win in
the singles to give UNC a 2-0 lead.
Senior doubles partner Ashley
Dai said it was Ouellet-Pizers reliability that allowed the two to click.
I know exactly what shes going
to do, not all the time but most of
the time Dai said. We have each
others backs.
Following Hayley Carter and
Whitney Kays doubles win, OuelletPizer and Dai secured the doubles
point for the Tar Heels. The win set
the tone in UNCs favor.
But before singles play even
started, that tone risked turning.
Two of the three officials did
not show up to the meet on time.
Kalbas said the 45-minute delay
posed a distraction that could have

The North Carolina mens tennis


team entered its match on Saturday
night knowing it needed top-level performances from every player to come
away with a victory over No. 7 Illinois.
And in the match at the ConeKenfield Tennis Center, the No. 10
Tar Heels depth proved to be the
difference in a 4-0 sweep against the
Fighting Illini.
Senior Brett Clark and sophomore Robert Kelly started the
match with a 6-4 victory in doubles.
Following an Illinois victory on
Court No. 3, juniors Brayden Schnur
and Jack Murray clinched the
doubles point in a tiebreaker with a
tight 7-6 (3) victory.
Clark and Kelly both opened singles play with wins, leaving the team
only one point short of securing its
biggest win of the season.
Schnur was entrenched in a tight
battle going into the third set. Junior
Ronnie Schneider was down going
into a second set tiebreaker.
As these matches unfolded,
Murray continued playing on Court
No. 4, unaware of the significance of
his match.
I honestly had no idea what the
score was the whole time, Murray
said. We cant see the scoreboard
from over there. When all of the
guys came over and started clapping on my match point, I kind of
assumed this could be the clincher.

thrown off his teams momentum.


But Ouellet-Pizer did not let that
happen.
She defeated her opponent in less
than an hour to give North Carolina
a 2-0 edge. Ouellet-Pizer said she
felt like she was in a groove, as she
only gave up two games.
I would have like three games
in a row where I like wouldnt lose
a point, Ouellet-Pizer said. Like it
was weird.
During practice, Kalbas said he
has worked with Ouellet-Pizer to
develop her aggression. Based on
her hard work in practice and in her
free time, Ouellet-Pizer was primed
for success Sunday.
I love that shes also being more
aggressive now and using that forehand to really get around it and
move people, because I know she
can chase things down, Dai said.
Ive seen it. Ive played against it.

Ouellet-Pizer said after all the


hours she spent practicing, she
could feel the difference in her play,
adding she felt more explosive.
My strategy was sort of to go
hard into the corners and especially
into her forehand because she likes
to attack (the ball), Ouellet-Pizer
said. I was just looking for the right
shot and then trying also to not slap
and be impatient.
In the last point of the game, she
found that shot.
To claim UNCs first singles win,
Ouellet-Pizer rallied a hard forehand cross-court that landed in the
back corner inches from the line.
The shot went untouched.
Its one thing to get momentum,
but its another thing to keep it,
Kalbas said. And Chloe did a really
good job.
@BlakeR_95
sports@dailytarheel.com

After winning the first set 6-0,


Murray dropped the second 0-6. But
after finding his rhythm again in the
deciding third set, he clinched the
match with a 6-1 win.
As has been the case through the
first three weekends of its spring
season, the team was once again carried to victory by a different player.
I think thats going to bode well
that we know, even if were down
in a match, the rest of the guys are
going to step up and come up with a
win for us, Clark said.
With a match against No. 2
Oklahoma next Sunday, Coach Sam
Paul knows everyone must continue
to improve.
Weve got to be playing better at
all spots. I think we played better
tonight than we did last weekend up
top, he said. Weve got to be competitive at all six spots against the
good teams.
Schnur and Schneider both
are working their way back from
injuries. Schnur is battling what
Paul believes is tendinitis, while
Schneider is still feeling the effects
of an injured ankle.
We know they are going to get
it together, Clark said. The rest of
the guys are just going to have to do
their part.
Having so many players step up
early in the season gives the team
confidence that once their top two
players get back to full health, they
will be able to compete with anyone
they step on the court against.
I think thats why were a top-10
team right now, Clark said. I think
on any given day, anyone on our
team can step up.
