In Chapel Hill, the memory and
dreams of Martin Luther King Jr.
are alive.
Children, students and adults
can all celebrate his spirit at com-
munity events beginning Monday.
UNC celebrating all week
The University will host activi-
ties beginning on Sunday and going
through Friday. This year’s theme is
“Race … American Dilemma?”
“What we’re really meaning is
that the color line isn’t just a prob-
lem of the 20th century,” coordina-
tor Lisle Bull said.
And Sunday’s 26th Annual
University/Community Martin
Luther King Jr. Memorial Banquet
has sold out. More than 400 people
will attend.
Monday, a University holiday,
will be emphasized as a day for
service. Students are encouraged
to get involved and give back to the
community.

The last plan, completed in
2003, played a highly influential
role in the development of such
popular initiatives as the first-year
seminar program and the construc-

Center, among other changes.
The first draft of the new plan
was released in November.
A revised draft was released
Wednesday. Estroff will present
the final version of the plan at the
Board of Trustees meeting later this
month with Bill Andrews, associ-
ate dean of the college of arts and
sciences and the other committee
co-chairman.
“This is our long range plan to
guide the University’s academic pro-
grams and priorities,” said adminis-
trative assistant David Bevevino.
Thursday’s meeting sought to
involve undergraduate students in
the drafting process, but the eve-
ning focused on more complicated
issues of campus diversity, student
access to professional schools and

“We’re bringing in Soledad to

“I’m curious about what’s so dif-

Other students expressed con-

further adjustments to the plan
before the final draft is released.
“Meeting with students is the
best cure I know for malaise and
thinking the world is going to hell,”
Estroff said.
And although the University
faces some harsh budgetary deci-
sions in the coming months, Estroff
said she is certain that the plan’s
vision of the future will ring true.
“We’re already in trouble, and we
just have to hold tight,” she said.
“This is the beginning of the
conversation, not the end.”

Mini peace-making camp
The Carrboro ArtsCenter is
offering its first holiday mini-camp
for children to remember King’s
message.
The all-day arts camp, held
Monday, will have a peace-making
theme inspired by King’s procla-
mations of peace and unity, said
Shirlette Ammons, the children’s
on-site arts manager.
“This is our first time trying it,”
Ammons said. “We hope it works.
We do mini-camps normally on
teacher workdays.”
Three instructors will lead
three-hour residencies on ceramics,
Ghanaian drumming techniques
and peace mandalas — patterns
that are created in the shape of a
circle and have spiritual and ritual-
istic meaning, Ammons said.
“On average we expect around
15 to 20 kids,” she said. “With kids
having been out of school due to
adverse weather, it took a hit on
our marketing.”
The camp cost ranges from $50
to $85, includes snacks and sup-
plies and is offered to children ages
5 to 11.

notify
illegal
sharers
UNC’s method
to start in dorms
By Paula Seligson
Staff writer
Beginning Tuesday, computers
accessing the Internet in residence
halls will automatically be scanned
for file-sharing programs.
The Network Access Control
service will scan for file sharing
programs such as BitTorrent and
LimeWire. If the service detects
a file-sharing program, a pop-up
message will notify him of the dan-
gers of illegal sharing and ways to
securely use the program.
Network access will not be sus-
pended and no legal action can be
taken against the student, as the
program cannot be used as crimi-
nal evidence.
“What we detect with this service
in no way, shape or form results
in a meeting with security,” Ryan
Turner, senior network engineer
for ITS, said. “If we detect peer-to-
peer, there’s not going to be a viola-
tion created.”
The new function, which cannot
search for specific files, will be used
merely as a preventative measure,
said Chris Williams, ResNET pro-
gram director
“It’s like there’s one of these
flashing speed limit signs, and
you’re going 40 miles per hour. You
can go 35, or you can go 40. It’s up
to you to decide what to do. It just
tells you,” he said. “If you want to
ignore it, then go for it, it’s your
personal computer. You have to
take responsibility with what you
want to do for it.
“We’re just trying to provide
some information.”
In all residence halls, the program
currently checks for anti-virus and
firewall software to allow a comput-
er onto the campus network.
Williams said the new measure
will speed up Internet connections
since illegal file-sharing impedes
the UNC network by using band-
width. The University, after test-
ing the program at the School of
Dentistry, extended it to Cobb.
“Last year, because we’ve imple-
mented NAC, we were able to
increase the speeds for all the stu-
dents that connect to the network,”
he said. “They went to about 25Mb
connections from 10Mb. That’s a
huge increase, and beyond what
most students get at any other
university.”
UNC is required by U.S. copy-
right law to hold users of the cam-
pus network accountable for copy-
right infringement. Those cases
cannot be initiated through the
notification program.
“We encounter weekly issues with
students having copyright com-
plaints filed against them from vari-
ous media organizations, including
the MPAA and the RIAA,” said Stan
Waddell, executive director for infor-
mation security at ITS, in reference
to the Motion Picture Association of
America and the Recording Industry
Association of America.
If a student is found illegally
sharing files, the first offense leads
to a loss of network access until
completion of a training course
and a meeting with ITS security
officials. A second offence leads to
a longer loss of network access and
a referral to Honor Court.
Processing copyright complaints
had been costing UNC about
$40,000 per year of late, but the
use of Network Access Control in
target areas has coincided with a
decrease in complaints.
ITS officials said media targets
universities for copyright infringe-
ment because campuses with a
high-volume of Internet users often
provide exceptionally large band-
widths.
The University of Michigan-Ann
Arbor, a peer institution of UNC,
implemented a similar program
in 2007 called “Be Aware You’re
Uploading,” which successfully
cut down on outside complaints of
illegal file sharing. The university
reported that 72 percent of viola-
tions came from residence halls.
Jim Gogan, director of network-
ing for ITS, said he is optimistic
about the new service.
“In the past it’s been very reac-
tive. We’d get the copyright viola-
tion notices. We’d have to track
down students and say, ‘The record-
ing industry or the motion picture
folks saw that you were sharing this
stuff illegally,’” he said.
“What we want to do now is be
more proactive.”

are worried that students will lose

LOS ANGELES (MCT) —
U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords,
D-Ariz., has not only opened
her eyes, but she also is com-
municating with her family,
physicians said at a Thursday
morning news conference.
“Her family has asked her very
specific things, and she has used
her hand to communicate with
them,” said Dr. Michael Lemole,
a neurosurgeon at Tucson’s
University Medical Center and
one of the surgeons who operated
on Giffords after she was shot
in the head Saturday morning.
That implies that she has a good
amount of cognitive functioning.
“It was probably a combination
of the unexpected but familiar that
prompted her to open her eyes
and caused her to look around,”
he said.
“That’s a very important step
on her move forward.”

Woodson said in case of a 15
percent cut, administrators at
NCSU might be forced to close
down whole departments and
colleges.
“This is not trimming around
the edges,” he said.
Layoffs at campuses, including
UNC-CH, are expected to start
this semester, and Ross said he is
leaving it to the chancellors to lead
that charge.
A 10 percent cut would trans-
late to 2,000 positions being
eliminated.
The University system does not
yet have predictions for a 15 per-
cent cut.
“A fiscal cut of 15 percent is much
more than we bargained for,” said
UNC-Charlotte Chancellor Philip
Dubois.
Board members said although
the cuts to the academic side are
going to be hard, the University
system has no other choice.
One protester shot dead as rioting

PARIS (MCT) — A protester
was shot dead and a foreign jour-

police in Tunisia again opened fire
on demonstrators during a second
day of rioting in the capital Tunis,
witnesses and media reports said.
Witnesses in Tunis said police
snipers positioned on the roof of a

and injuring another. The dead
man was shot in the chest, the wit-

WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT)
— President Barack Obama has
bounced back from his low point
after November’s elections and
enjoys stronger support heading
into the 2012 election cycle, accord-
ing to a McClatchy Newspapers-
Marist poll released Thursday. The
president’s rating improved on sev-
eral fronts, including job approval,
how many like him personally and
whether they think he’ll do better in
the next two years.
Today Obama would beat
Republican Mitt Romney by 51
to 38 percent, the poll showed. In
a December poll, he trailed the
former Massachusetts governor
by 46-44 percent. Obama would
defeat Republican Mike Huckabee
by a similar margin, 50-38 percent.
In December, the president led the
former Arkansas governor by only
47-43 percent. And he’d crush Palin
by 56-30 percent.
“Do the math. There’s no way but to
affect the academic side.”

“It would be an instance when
you cut off a part of the body in
order to maintain the rest of the
body,” said board member Franklin
McCain.
Another area that is expected to
suffer significantly is research.
Steven Leath, vice president of
research for the UNC system, said
although research institutions in
the state are growing rapidly, they
are going to lose money not only
from the state budget cuts but from
the lack of stimulus funds.
“We are getting cuts at the same
time as we’re growing,” he said. “We
will recover but it will be a long
term process.”
The N.C. General Assembly
approved $22 million for research
equipment for the UNC system last
summer. But universities never
received that money, Leath said.
Those funds will remain frozen

Secretar y of State Hillar y

bluntly challenged Middle

Clinton, addressing an inter-
national meeting in the Persian
Gulf nation of Qatar, said the
region’s governments need to
share more power with civic and
volunteer groups to overcome
the problems of exploding popu-
lations, stagnant economies and
declining natural resources.

until the Council of State gives the
system its approval.
To offset at least a portion of the
cuts, most campuses have proposed
tuition increases close to the cap of
6.5 percent.
The proposed increase for
undergraduate residents at UNC-
CH is $313.
If campus proposals are
approved by the board next month
and later by the N.C. General
Assembly, the UNC system would
be able to generate $63.8 million.
UNC-CH would generate $15.7
million of that total.

money won’t be nearly enough.

Late signs of life lift North Carolina

by Aaron Taube
Assistant sports editor
In its ACC opener at Virginia, the North
Carolina men’s basketball team proved it
had some fight in it. But in Thursday’s game
at home against Virginia Tech, the Tar Heels
made this toughness a
MEN’S habit.
BASKETBALL UNC trailed by as
Va. Tech 61 many as 16 in the first
UNC  64 half, but battled back for
a thrilling 64-61 win.
“You’ve got to keep playing, you’ve got
to keep plugging along,” UNC coach Roy
Williams said. “The kids are maturing, and
I think that’s huge.”
The night did not start promising for the
Tar Heels. After being stuffed by UNC for-
ward John Henson on a drive to the basket
two and a half minutes into the game, Va.
Tech guard Malcolm Delaney made himself
at home behind the 3-point arc.
The two-time All-ACC selection had
eviscerated the Tar Heels from downtown,
scoring 15 first-half points on 5-of-7 3-point
shooting. He’d finish the game with 28
points.
On offense, the Tar Heels struggled might-
ily to get into a rhythm in the half-court and
appeared lackluster on both ends of the
floor through most of the first half. With the
Hokies leading 28-14, Va. Tech’s Jarrell Eddie
fought through both Tyler Zeller and Dexter
Strickland to corral a rebound midway
through the half, seemingly underscoring the
gap in intensity between the two teams.
It was shortly after that UNC’s Kendall
Marshall kick-started the Tar Heel come-
back. The freshman point guard made a pair
of bank shots on back-to-back possessions
and fed John Henson on an alley-oop that
fired up the Smith Center crowd.
The Tar Heels finished the first half on a
9-0 run that closed the gap to 31-24 before
halftime.
“(Marshall) came up big,” Henson said.
“He’s impressive as a point guard and he
kind of runs the show and it’s like his mind
and everything, he was built for that spot.
“I’m thankful for him right now. He pulled
us through to the end, and hopefully he can
keep it going.”

Even the visually impaired might
have known when John Henson

They would hear it.
For almost 10 minutes in the sec-
ond half, Henson scored 10 of UNC’s
14 points in a stretch that saw the Tar
Heels climb from a seven-point deficit
to a 47-47 tie with six minutes remain- Henson rebounded with 12 points, six
ing.
With each dunk, a roar echoed
through the Smith Center as the lanky
sophomore celebrated as he finally
returned to the floor.
“You want to get the crowd into it
because eventually they’re going to help
you in some situations,” Henson said. See Henson, Page 7
During that stretch every momen-
tum swing for North Carolina was at
the hands of the sophomore forward.
“John gave us a great boost,” UNC
forward Harrison Barnes said. “I think
we just definitely fed off his energy,
you know, his inside presence, getting
layups for us. That put us back in the
game.”
After finishing the first half with five
points, two rebounds and two blocks,

Basketball
from page 5

The Tar Heels picked up where

they left off after the intermission,
and took the lead 43-42 on anoth-
er Henson dunk from a Marshall
assist.
Again, Delaney caused problems
for UNC, making a pair of free throws
to give the Hokies back the lead and
assisting on a Manny Atkins 3-ball
on the next possession.
But with his team trailing late,
much-hyped freshman Harrison
Barnes lived up to the words on his
T-shirt shortly after he arrived in
Chapel Hill. For the last four min-
utes of the game, Barnes was finally
“that dude.”
The preseason All-American
drained a jumper to tie the game
at 52 and then a 3-pointer from
the left wing to give UNC its final
lead on its next possession. He’d
add another three to give UNC a
60-56 lead with 1:32 left. Barnes
had eight of his 12 points in the last
3:38.
“You always have to have that
“(Marshall) pulled
us through to the
end, and hope-
fully he can keep it
going.”
John Henson, unc forward
mind,” Barnes said.
“Just because you miss shots
early, you can’t be afraid to take
them later.”
The Hokies would cut the lead to
one, but Delaney’s 3-point attempt
with eight seconds remaining
bounced off the front of the rim,
and Marshall grabbed the rebound
to preserve the UNC win.
“I’m looking at that ball as it was
going through the air,” Williams
said. “I thought it was short, but all
the sudden it looked like it got clos-
er and closer. I didn’t know what
was going to happen, but it was big
for us to get the rebound.”

UNC continues tough slate
by Brandon Moree
Assistant Sports Editor
The North Carolina wrestling
team is returning to Carmichael
Arena for the first time in more
than a year, but this time the
competition will be stiffer than
the Duke team the Tar Heels
rolled last season.
The 10th-ranked Virginia Tech
squad that will travel to Chapel
Hill on Saturday is coming off
a second-place finish in the
NWCA/Cliff Keen National Duals
in Cedar Falls, Iowa, after losing
only to No. 1 ranked Cornell in
the championship.
The Hokies’ run in Iowa includ-
ed victories against Oklahoma
State, a perennial national power,
and a Wisconsin team that sacked
the Tar Heels in November.
UNC has not had the same suc-
cess as of late. After winning four of
its first six matches, the Tar Heels
have dropped the last two duals.
UNC coach C.D. Mock considers
this Virginia Tech squad to be one
of the best teams left on the sched-
ule. According to WrestlingReport.
com, the Hokies have a top-31
ranked wrestler in all but one
weight class.
“On paper we haven’t got a
chance,” Mock said, “but we don’t
pay much attention to that. It’s
one-on-one.”
One of those one-on-one match-
ups will take place when freshman
Corey Mock takes on defending
ACC champion Jesse Dong in the
157-weight class. The fifth-ranked
Dong beat Mock by three points
in a closely contested match in
December at the Nittany Lion
Open.
In preparation for his rematch
with Dong, Corey Mock has been
working with redshirt junior Kyle
Kiss, who has similar strengths as
Dong.
“I want to play my game, not his.”
Mock said. “If I can get on top first,
that’s a match I’m going to win.”
Coach Mock has confidence in
his freshman’s potential but har-
bors concern about consistency.
“I believe Corey is more than
capable of beating Dong, but he’s
got to show up.” Mock said. “If the
guy that showed up for the Hofstra
match shows up for the Dong
match, he’s going to get whooped.”
Other rookies have not struggled
with consistency like Mock has this
season. Freshmen Zac Bennett and
Antonio Giorgio were the only Tar
Heels to notch victories in both
losses last week. The freshman class
has been a bright spot this season as
many of the upperclassmen are out
of the lineup due to injuries.
“I’m very happy with them and
the job they are doing,” Mock said.
“Giorgio has done a great job and
has probably been the most consis-
tent wrestler on the team.”
C.D. Mock attributes the success
of the freshman class to confidence,
admitting that the young Tar Heels
believe they can win every time
they step on the mat.
Even though the 4-4 Tar Heels are
heavy underdogs, C.D. Mock and his
team will not be intimidated.
“We’re planning on going out
there individually, every single
match just pushing them all over
the mat,” he said, “and maybe get-
ting in their head and maybe clos-
ing the gap — a little bit — of expe-
rience and talent that they have
over us.”

Henson “You know, John’s

from page 5

that’s what we want to do, so we

took advantage of that.”
Henson found an intensity level
in the second half that the Tar
Heels were missing.
UNC was fumbling the ball,
missing defensive assignments and
turning it over. But when Henson
turned it on, North Carolina did
too.
UNC coach Roy Williams called
his second-half play “sensational at
times.”
Henson’s 17 points are his career
best in an ACC game. He had 14
last year at Virginia Tech and at
Duke.
Henson was at least an inch tall-
er than all of Virginia Tech’s play-
ers, but his stilt-like arms added a
few more inches.
His appendages forced the
Hokies into cheap fouls on the
defensive end of the court. Virginia
Tech’s Jeff Allen and Terrell Bell
picked up four and five fouls,
respectively. He also finished the
game with four blocks on the stat
sheet.
With that length, he was able to
execute his running hook shot at
will, which worked for him a few
times in the second half.
Aside from his electrifying
dunks, Henson also made a few
uncanny shots, though Barnes said

UNC ordering more vaccines
Record number requested nationwide
by Michelle Zayed
staff writer
After last year’s H1N1 pandemic
on campuses, University Campus
Health Services is making use of
an increased supply of vaccines to
keep students flu free.
Jeff Dimond, spokesman for the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, said 160 million flu
vaccines were produced for this
flu season nationwide, which is a
record amount.
“We have more than ever,” he
said.
But UNC Campus Health has
already used up all of the vaccines
that they ordered in the fall, said
Mary Covington, executive direc-
tor for UNC Campus Health
Services.
After an increase in reports
of flu-like illnesses reported by
the CDC, Campus Health has
already ordered more doses from
Middle school wins travel grant
by Tori Koesters
staff writer
Some local students should
start brushing up on their French
after their middle school received
a grant to encourage global edu-
cation.
Current students and graduates
from Smith Middle School will
travel to France and Belgium this
spring after the school received
its third grant from the European
Union.
From March 19 to April 2,
eighth and ninth grade students
will explore major historical sites
in Europe that they have been
studying.
The 31 students will stay with
pen pals in Liege, Belgium, for a
week and attend a Belgian school,
said the school’s French teacher
Robin McMahon.
“(McMahon) is really the per-
son that is making all of this hap-
pen, and we’ve been delighted to
see the partnership she’s devel-
oped with the schools in Belgium
and France,” said Neil Pedersen,
superintendent for Chapel Hill-
Carrboro City Schools.

Covington said.
At the beginning of fall semes-
ter, UNC Campus Health hosted
mobile clinics at different campus
locations to administer free vac-
cines, Covington said.
“Unfortunately, few people took
advantage of these as much as they
could,” Covington said.
“We probably didn’ t get as
much people vaccinated as we
hoped.”
There are none left for now, she
said.
Each year flu vaccines are made
differently depending on the
strains of virus that are circulating,
Dimond said.
This year the vaccine helps
protect against the type A strain
of flu also known as H3N2, the
type B influenza and last year’s
H1N1.

appropriate that they receive the
grant.”
The “Getting to Know Europe”
grant gives Smith Middle School
about 77,000 euros — about
$100,000 — from the European
Union. The majority of the grant
recipients are universities, includ-
ing Cornell and Rutgers universi-
ties.
The students will visit
Normandy, Paris, and multiple
cities in Belgium. Stops are set to
include a mine museum, a Jewish
memorial and European parlia-
ment buildings.
Students will also tour an
American exhibit in Belgium with
their pen pals and hosts, who vis-
ited the students here last spring,
McMahon said.
“I’m mostly excited about the
academic component and what
the kids will research before the
trip,” said McMahon, who is the
primary grant writer and travel
coordinator.
“It will really bring history
alive for them.”
The selection process for stu-
dents involved evaluating grades,

encourages every American above
the age of six months to be vac-
cinated, Dimond said.
College students tend to live in
groups, which makes them vul-
nerable to contracting airborne
diseases, Dimond said.
“They live in dorms, use com-
mon bathrooms and common
facilities,” he said.
“Those are perfect breeding
grounds for the flu.”
Despite the increased amounts
of preparation, some UNC admin-
istrators say this process is just for
prevention.
“I have not gotten any informa-
tion from the campuses that we
are seeing anything of significant
difference than what we definitely
see during a regular flu season,”
said Brent Herron, associate vice
president of campus safety and
emergency operations for the UNC

“If you are sick, stay home —

$757,000 waterfront mansion
where they resided during Bush’s
undergraduate career.
The home was officially owned
by a man who had many close
connections with NFL agents.
One USC national champion-
ship later, the precedent set by the
NCAA with its critically acclaimed
investigative prowess becomes
more comical when coupled with
the controversial investigations
the NCAA has since conducted.
The NCAA’s response to the
USC scandal in comparison to the
situation at UNC serves to high-
light the organization’s depen-
dence on high-profile teams to
sustain its power — and the dis-
crepancies aren’t going unnoticed.
Just two months after the
NCAA arrived, UNC felt com-
pelled to hold 13 players out of
the opening game of the 2010
football season. Meanwhile,
Terrelle Pryor of Ohio State did
not even have to miss his bowl
game despite selling a ring and
game jersey from a previous con-
ference championship because
he was supposedly unaware this
would violate the NCAA’s vaunt-
ed amateurism principle.
T
he combination of a slug-
gish economy and a shift
in power at the General
Assembly means the UNC sys-
tem will certainly experience
budget cuts.
The new conservative leg-
islature would rather combat
the nearly $4 billion deficit
that the state currently faces
by lowering spending than
raising taxes. Surely, some of
these reductions will come at
the University’s expense.
In the shadow of uncertainty
over the form of the cuts, the
University needs to be fully
prepared for the worst possible
outcomes.
The seriousness of the
situation is not lost on the
administration. Yet, little has
been done to prepare for cuts
above 10 percent, even though
that scenario is hardly off the
table.
The severity of the potential
cuts cannot be understated. As
today’s front page indicates,
the system-wide budget has
been cut $575 million over the
past three years. An additional
$405 million could be cut next
year alone.
According to Provost Bruce
Carney, the University “cannot
absorb cuts this deep without
making some major changes in
the University and its missions.”
Provost Bruce Carney has
already met with deans and
vice chancellors to discuss the
impacts of 5 percent and 10
percent cuts.
Carney said planning for
this prospective change is not
slated to start until March.
But clearly it needs to begin
sooner. And the fact that these
cuts would have severe effects
is all the more reason to begin
preparation now.
By cutting more in some
areas than others, the
University plans to minimize
the impact of the cuts.
By articulating now what fif-
teen percent cuts would mean,
the University would thus be
prepared to minimize the dam-
age.
Right now, 15 percent is just a
figure. But determining precise-
ly the effects of that figure will
also be vital in demonstrating
its severity to the legislature.
And just as the administra-
tion needs to begin preparing
for the worst, students lead-
ers ought to be on the front
lines of the budget battle.
The Association of Student
Governments especially has a
role to play in communicating
to the legislature the impor-
tance of preserving funding.
All system leaders, both
students and administra-
tors, should wait no longer
to start finding the optimal
means of preserving every-
thing that makes UNC great

materialize.

amateur athlete after being pre-

evidence against him.
Ignorance truly is bliss.
However, it is becoming more
apparent this phrase applies much
more to the NCAA than to anyone
else. After all, one of Newton’s first
lines in his Heisman acceptance
speech was to acknowledge that
his parents do a lot of “behind the
scenes” work that goes unnoticed.

cies from the NCAA are far from

A
t its meeting Jan. 18,
Student Congress will
decide whether to hold a
referendum on a student fee that
raises money for renovations and
additions to the Student Union.
We strongly encourage Student
Congress to allow the fee to come
to student referendum. As both
the main benefactors of and fund-
ing source for the renovations,
students should have the chance
to vote on the proposed changes.
Unfortunately, the rejection
of this bill by the Student Affairs
Committee will make it more
complicated for the student body
to decide on the fate of the Union.
According to Deanna Santoro,
speaker of Student Congress, the
bill has two likely options. Congress
could vote by a two-thirds majority
to bring the fee increase to the floor,
where it would still need a majority
of votes before students could vote
on it in February.
The alternative route to a refer-
endum would be a petition requir-
ing more than 2,800 signatures.
Under the current proposal,
students would pay $16 annually
for the next 30 years in order to
pay for the improvements, which
would be finished in 2013.
A fee of this importance for
the student body should not be
derailed by procedural maneuver-
ing. Students should be allowed
to vote on the plans and the fee.
The Union, after all, is the main
building dedicated to student
needs on campus.
Previously, we have argued
against student funding of capi-
tal improvements, but this is
an exception. UCommons will
directly benefit students and is a
valuable redevelopment of poorly
utilized space.
The student body needs a
space open 24/7 — besides the
Undergraduate Library — more
on-campus dining options and
better rehearsal spaces. The plan
might not be perfect, but is surely
worthy of a student referendum.
The likelihood of getting
University funding for this project
is extremely unlikely with the UNC
system expecting massive budget
cuts in the next fiscal year.
Private funding could come
through, but student impact on
the design of the Union might be
reduced or compromised.
There are legitimate criticisms
of the plan itself. The Union’s 22
meeting rooms aren’t sufficient for
all of the groups that want to meet
there, and the new plan only has six
meeting spaces. The renovations,
which have an estimated cost of $11
million, have also been criticized as
being too expensive.
And some say it’s just not the
best time for a fee increase given
the current economic climate.
But regardless of how students
feel about the proposed plan, they
should have the chance to vote on
the fee increase themselves.
late in even starting the process.
While I believe that Dr. Wilson
will be an intriguing and note-
worthy individual to be able to
gain wisdom and guidance from,
I still feel there needs to be great-
er explanation for this decision.
Members of my class may
already feel slighted by the fact
that Dr. Wilson isn’t very well-
known outside of academia (more
importantly the science commu-
nity), nor does he carry the kind
of “star power” that previous
commencement speakers at UNC
or even rival Duke have had.
Dr. Wilson is a very interest-
ing individual, and after review-
ing his background, accomplish-
ments and even past interviews,
he is obviously someone who is

knowledge with us.

NCAA’s decision to harshly punish
an amateur athlete while leaving
a highly compensated head coach
unscathed for seemingly the same
crime is ludicrous.
In order to regain the public’s
trust, the NCAA needs to dramati-
cally increase transparency and
consistency and try to deviate from
its dependence on high-profile
athletes and schools to help its
bottom line become solvent. Until
then, the NCAA will continue to be
defenseless against skeptics who
argue its disingenuous motives are
in direct conflict with its ideologi-
cal mission.
Tuesday:
Matthew Moran’s Monday column
begins in two weeks. Tuesday, Sarah
Dugan’s wellness column returns.
T
his week, the NCAA’s
Division I Legislative
Council will vote on an
important proposal that would
allow companies to use the images
of student-athletes in advertise-
ments as long as the promotions
reference the athlete’s school.
The new rules could provide
increased publicity for athletic
programs across the country, and
give student athletes great expo-
sure that could help fuel their ath-
letic careers.
However, universities must
be cautious, as they would be
charged with bearing the burden
of monitoring the relationship
between student athletes and
corporations.
This may be a difficult thing
to monitor, and could perhaps
require additional time and
resources on behalf of university
athletic departments.
The overarching concern
should be what is best for athletes,
not what is best for universities
seeking to promote their lucrative
athletic programs.
The proposal does not allow for
direct endorsement of an athlete
— student athletes are not allowed
to be compensated by outside
agencies. But as the Chronicle of
Higher Education notes in its piece
about the proposal, an image of
the athlete could be coupled with
a promotion saying “Company X
works hard just like the University
X’s Football Team.”
In practice, it could be just as
powerful as a verbal endorsement.
Supporters of the plan believe
that it will help clarify the com-
plex rules that regulate the rela-
tionship between student ath-
letes and universities and outside
agencies.
Opponents of the plan cite an
unfair exploitation of student ath-
letes who may have little say in
how their image is used as part of
a promotion, as athletes will sign a
release statement allowing colleges
to use their names or likenesses in
commercial activities.
If the proposal is adopted, uni-
versity athletic directors must work
to make sure student athletes are
not being exploited for the sake of
university promotion, and clear
guidelines should be set out for
athletes who choose not to provide
consent to the university for the use
of their image or its likeness.
