CONNECTING THE DOTSNCAA INVESTIGATION REVEALS ASSOCIATIONS

When news broke in July that the NCAA wasinvestigating North Carolinas football team, no one wasquite sure what it would mean UNC has never been

the target of such an investigation.Since then, the investigation has gone in two directions,

examining both improper contact with agentsand academic misconduct with a tutor.

Twenty-three surveys and 18interviews have left some Board ofTrustees members with one conclu-sion about the Greek rush sched-ules effect on students: Nothing iscertain.

As part of a study that will shapethe UNC boards recommendationon how or whether to amendthe Universitys rush policy, the

boards University affairs commit-tee consulted other universitiesfrom late August into September.

The committee has raised thepossibility of maintaining the fallrush, deferring rush to spring orchanging recruitment to a rollingor performance-based system.

But after hour-long interviewsand questionnaires, the commit-tees chairman, Alston Gardner,

said changing rush might not be thesilver bullet for a range of concerns

with the Greek system.

Theres no clear consensus thatrecruitment in the fall or springproduces different results, Gardnersaid. The general advice fromeveryone is there are more impor-tant ways to affect the culture andsuccess of Greek system than thetiming of the recruitment period.

At 2 p.m. today, Gardner willpresent the findings of the boardsUniversity affairs committee tostudents and Greek officials.

Gardner said the boards recom-mendation to the University, sched-uled to be released in January, couldcome as soon as November.

In an interview Tuesday,Gardner said the discussion in theFreedom Forum room in CarrollHall will address the committeesconcerns that rush interferes withstudents assimilation into campus

life. It will address the concern thatthe current rush caters to the nega-

tive stereotypes associated with the

Greek system. And it will addressthe problem of forcing students tomake a decision in 10 days that willmold their four years at UNC.

After researching comparablysized Greek systems at schools rang-ing from Cornell University to peerinstitutions such as the Universityof California - Los Angeles and theUniversity of Michigan, Gardnersaid he has concluded that no sin-gle adjustment will solve systemicproblems.

Of the five universities he inter-viewed for the study, Gardner saidhe was most impressed by IndianaUniversitys model.

He said the universitys vast net-work of alumni advisors provides amature insight that trickles downto fraternity and sorority organiza-tions judiciary processes, recruit-

With nearly $50 million in

research funding, the CarolinaPopulation Center establisheditself at the end of the 2010 fiscal

year as a leading research entity atthe University.

The center, which completesinterdisciplinary demographicstudies, received $47.7 millionin grants and contracts, markingthe second-most of any individualrecipient at UNC this year, behindthe Lineberger ComprehensiveCancer Center.

Despite the looming economicuncertainty with the end of thefederal stimulus, Tom Heath,associate director for finance andadministration, said he anticipatesthe steady funding growth fromresearch grants to continue.

The current economic climateat the federal level and increased

concern about deficits to someextent has made it tougher, Heath

said. Some stimulus money hasbeen channeled into grants andthat has helped us.

Kathleen Mullan Harris, inter-im director of the center, said it has

been able to receive funding due tothe nature of its research.

The center is working on morethan 50 projects, most of which areused by federal agencies like theNational Institutes of Health andNational Science Foundation two agencies which are among theUniversitys top research backers.

More than 250 researchers fromnearly two dozen fields rangingfrom economics and sociology toepidemiology collaborate onprojects with the centers support,making a interdisciplinary researchclimate that requires significantfunding to adequately collect andanalyze data.

When Richard Lorenc, a 33-year-old Kansas man who had been

adopted, decided to look for and found his birth mother, things

My whole life growing up, I thought my mom was Grace Slick

from Jefferson Airplane, but that was just my fantasy. This is kind of better, he said.

Lorencs mother, Vivian Wheeler, suffers from hypertrichosis, otherwise known as

werewolf syndrome. Since she stopped shaving in 1990, her beard has grown to

11 inches in length, earning her appearances in Ripleys Believe It or Not! and the

Guinness World Records book. Lorenc and Wheeler are scheduled to appear on

Maury in the upcoming weeks, where their DNA results will be revealed.

Lawson stirring up support sulo

fulclitar Heels defynaional rend

by seth clinestaff writer

Waving their mini American flagsand singing God Bless America inunison, local Republicans rallied

behind the conservative surge thatis sweeping the nation.

At a rally inHillsborough,Repub l icanParty candi-dates ener-gized support-ers in hopes ofa strong turn-

out in the general elections.B.J. Lawson, who is vying for

Rep. David Prices U.S. House seatfor the second time, was the mainattraction at the event.

I lost the election in 2008 before Election Day thanks to

early voting, Lawson said. Thisyear we can beat Mr. Price if we canget another 14 percent out to vote,

especially early.After winning only 37 percentof the vote in 2008, Lawsons 2010campaign has been invigorated bya strong anti-incumbent and anti-Democrat feeling in voters in NorthCarolina and nationwide.

A recent poll conducted byAction Solutions, a conservativepolitical communication company,found that Lawson had a slight leadover Price.

Lawson has touted the pollsresults, but political experts havequestioned its credibility.

In troubled times people alwaystend to go conservative, said BillKnight, chairman of the OrangeCounty Republican Party. Those

who voted for change in 2008havent gotten what they were look-ing for.

At the historic courthouse, thediverse crowd cheered enthusias-tically at the speakers messages

emphasizing smaller government,fewer taxes and reduced spending.The biggest thing is the high

taxes and growing deficit, saidMatthew Berry, a Hillsborough resi-dent. A lot of my friends couldnt get

jobs coming out of school becausebusinesses are scared of coming.

Another speaker was RyanHilliard, who is running against N.C.Sen. Ellie Kinnaird, D-Orange.

All three levels of governmenthave gotten out of control wealready have one of the states high-est tax rates, Hilliard said. Taxesand government arent what make

America great.Both Hilliard and Lawson will

face uphill battles come November,

as Orange County is one of thestates most liberal areas, saidLeroy Towns, a professor of politi-cal journalism at UNC.

But they are seeing support fromUNC students.

Republicans have made them-selves more visible this year oncampus, said Anthony Dent, presi-dent of the College Republicans.

If signs on campus are anyindication, things in November aregoing to be great, Dent said. This

year we have close to 300 members triple what we had in May.

As the light faded on the court-house lawn, the conservatives vis-ibility was evident in the cheers ofthe crowd of more than 50.

I just think its time for achange, said Sean Murray ofHillsborough.

A national trend shows that stu-dents across the country are strug-gling to pay back college loans, butUNC students are an exception.

The number of college studentsfiling for loan defaults, which arefiled when the first loan paymentcannot be made, has increasednationwide.

But students at UNC tied withWilliam and Mary for the best loanrepayment rate in the country this

year, said Shirley Ort, directorof the Office of Scholarship andFinancial Aid at UNC.

The first payments for studentloans for the 2007 to 2008 school

year were due on Sept. 30, 2009.During that time more than

238,000 of the 3.4 million studentsfiled a default because they couldnot pay their first installment,according to the U.S. Departmentof Education.

Loan defaults at public univer-sities in the nation increased from5.9 percent to 6 percent in 2008and dropped at UNC from 0.9percent in 2007 to 0.7 percent in2008.

The departments research

found that the increase in defaultrate stems from the current eco-nomic climate and the rise of for-profit schools.

One of the reasons the ratewent up this year is the tremendousgrowth in enrollment in for-profitschools, said Jane Glickman of thedepartments office of communica-tions and outreach.

At for-profit universities, whichare owned by profit-seeking compa-nies, default rates for students whoattended these universities increasedfrom 11 to 11.6 percent in 2008.

University of Phoenix, DeVryUniversity and Capella Universityare examples of for-profit schoolsthat are growing fast.

Ben Kittner, marketing researchand PR manager for the CollegeFoundation of North Carolina,

said historically, public universitystudents in the state have a verylow default rate.

North Carolina saw the defaultrate drop to 2.8 percent in 2008from 2.9 percent in 2007, Kittnersaid.

Kittner said 80 percent of borrow-ers in the state use CFNC.org a

website that helps students plan andpay for college in North Carolina.

Even with the low default rate,UNC administrators are workingto educate students on good bud-geting practices.

If tuition continues to increase,I am expecting to receive less grantmoney and more student borrow-ing, Ort said.

At the start of the school year,the Office of Scholarship andFinancial Aid launched a financial

literacy campaign to educate stu-dents on budgeting, credit cardsand savings.

Our students have a great his-tory, but (economic state) is some-thing that is always on our minds,Ort said.

Joseph Haj signed up for highschool drama looking for a class to

sleep through.Instead, he uncovered a passion

for the dramatic arts that spiraledinto an immensely successful careeras both an actor and director.

Haj, the producing artisticdirector for PlayMakers RepertoryCompany, has revitalized thetroupe, expanding its reach intothe larger University community.

You hardly ever hear the wordcommunity without online attachedto it anymore, Haj said. Theater isone of the last places people can jointogether in a shared event.

The company continues its 35thseason with William ShakespearesAs You Like It, directed by Hajhimself. The production officiallyopens this Saturday.

Since Haj came aboard in 2006,PlayMakers has doubled its num-

ber of productions, launched analternative series of smaller works

and staged a range of ambitiousplays including last seasonsepic six-hour version of CharlesDickens Nicholas Nickleby.

But though Haj is proud of hisaccomplishments, he still seeks to

better bridge the gap between thecompany and the University.

We are really striving to makePlayMakers not just a theater butrather a teacher, he said.

Haj received a bachelor sdegree in theater from FloridaInternational University in Miami

before joining the professionalactor training program at UNC inthe 1980s.

Twenty years later, Haj has comeback to the stage that trained himto expand PlayMakers educationalprogramming, drawing in studentsand the larger campus communityin collaboration with the depart-ment of dramatic art.

We really try to contextualizethe experience so that students are

not seeing production in isolationbut rather as part of a larger dia-

Local and state NAACP members ralliedto recruit students from the steps of SouthBuilding on Tuesday.

Nearly 100 students and activists attend-ed the event, which featured speeches fromleaders of the National Association for the

Advancement of Colored People.N.C. NAACP leaders said they chose South

Building for its significance in UNCs battlefor desegregation. On Friday, UNCs first

three black undergraduate students returnedfor the 55th anniversary of their admission.The UNC chapter of the NAACP rallied

to encourage students to become politicallyengaged and aware of the opportunities forpublic service on a local and national level.

Students often forget what is going onoutside the campus, said Brittany Edens,UNCs NAACP chapter president. Our goal

is to make the campus more socially awareand to serve as an outlet for concerns.

She said it was the first time the chapterheld a rally at the beginning of the year tospark student interest.

Speakers, including N.C. NAACPPresident Rev. William Barber, highlightedlocal issues and emphasized the need for stu-dents and the community to stand t ogetherfor one common purpose.

Barber addressed the recent UNC house-keeper break policy review, saying thatUniversity students should stand behind the

housekeepers.Dont dismiss the people who do the menialwork, he said. Its meaningful work.

Erin Byrd, director of the political actioncommittee for the N.C. NAACP, addressedthe Wake County School Boards decision tomove toward neighborhood schooling, andencouraged people to organize, fight and voteagainst such issues.

We believe that when our school is strong,our community is strong, Byrd said.

The rally encouraged students to jointhe NAACP, register to vote and attend theOne Nation March in Washington, D.C. saidMichelle Cotton Laws, president of the orga-nizations Chapel Hill-Carrboro branch.

The One Nation March will seek to pushnational leaders to preserve public educa-tion, provide jobs, strengthen and stabilizethe economy and build unity.

Edens said the UNC chapter of theNAACP and other campus organizations

will attend the march to unite students ona national level.

Duke University professor Dr. Timothy

Tyson, who serves on the executive boardof the N.C. NAACP, encouraged non-blackstudents to join the organization.

The NAACP is not a black organization,he said. It is an interracial organizationfighting for equality for all.

logue, Haj said.In 2009, American Theatre

magazine named Haj one of 25artists who will have a significantimpact on American theater in thenext quarter-century. He is also onthe board of directors of Theatre

Communications Group, a nationalorganization for American theater.

This is where you see someof Joes greatest success, saidMcKay Coble, UNC faculty chair-

woman and chairwoman of theDepartment of Dramatic Art.

PlayMakers is no longer astand-alone company.

The actors in Hajs company saythat he uses the same hands-onapproach in his direction.

He really is an actors director,said Jeffrey Meanza, an actor andfaculty member. Being an actorhimself, he really understandshow to get the best work from theactors.

Like Meanza, many actors inthe company are professors at theUniversity who use their experi-ences with PlayMakers to better

inform their teaching.Ray Dooley, a faculty member who

recently appeared in Happy Days,the season opener, said he appreci-ates Hajs creative enthusiasm.

Hes always looking for the bestidea in the room, Dooley said.

And for Haj, the best idea is abetter company.

Coble recalls seeing Haj on thephone in the box office, callingpatrons who had canceled theirsubscriptions to see how the com-pany could improve.

Its that kind of personal touchand genuine interest, Coble said.Thats why he does it he is justgenuinely interested in makingPlayMakers the best it can be.

C.W. Stanford Middle Schoolstudent Moenesha Johnson, 13,

returned this week to a tutoringprogram in Hillsborough.She participated in the program

last year for help in math and cameback for more this school year.

I was getting Ds and Cs, shesaid. It helped me with math andnew skills to help with problems.

After tutoring I got Bs insteadof Cs.

For the th ird year , theHillsborough Police Departmentis partnering with UNC studentsto offer free tutoring sessions tocounty students.

The program, which beganMonday, connects UNC Habitat forHumanity volunteers with OrangeCounty Schools students for after-

school tutoring sessions.The sessions are held at the

Community Policing Substationin Hillsborough from 4:30 p.m. to

6 p.m. every Monday and Tuesdayduring the school year.The program is available to all

district students and provides helpwith reading, math and science.

UNC student Jasmine Nesi wasinvolved in the program last yearand is now the tutoring chairwom-an for UNC Habitat.

Im interested in education,and Habitat for Humanity gives topeople in need, so its a good orga-nization to be involved with, shesaid.

Nesi said there are 10 to 12tutors each week three of whichassist in carpooling. Then eachtutor is paired with one studentdepending on how many come to

the session.The first week is a little hectic,

she said. It just depends on howheavy the work load is.

Zachary Butcher, a 9-year-old4th grader at Central ElementarySchool, went to the tutoring pro-

gram Monday for homeworkhelp.Tutoring helps you a lot, he

said. If youre reading and getstuck on an answer, they help youto sound it out .

Cpl. Tereasa King, communitypolicing coordinator for the policedepartment, is the officer in chargeof the tutoring sessions.

I make sure information getsout to schools and the commu-nity, King said. I also make surethat kids get back with the correctparents.

King said the police departmentpartnered with UNC Habitat afterUniversity students participated inactivities with the local Boys and

Girls Club.I asked them if they had ever

thought about tutoring, and theyput us with UNC Habitat, shesaid.

UNC sophomore Meghan Kossaid she works as a tutor because

she wants to get involved in thecommunity.Kos is an education major and

said she plans on teaching middleschool mathematics.

But any kind of work with kidsis good, she said.

Nesi said the main goal of theprogram is to offer one-on-onehelp for the students.

The groups largest obstacle,she said, is keeping students ontask.

The students know what theyretalking about, she said. We justhave to keep them focused.

Orange County staff will post thelatest update to a plan to reduce itssolid waste on its website today a

year after it was due to the state.Since the county implemented

its Solid Waste Management Planin 1997 to satisfy a state require-ment, it has reduced solid waste by54 percent and extended the life ofthe county landfill to 2013.

Although due June 2009, theupdate represents careful delibera-tion and cooperation by the Solid

Waste Plan Work Group, said BlairPollock, county solid waste planner.

The group is comprised of del-egates from Chapel Hill, Carrboro,Hillsborough and the county.

The plan aims to reduce solidwaste in the county by 61 percentbut has no time frame since thecounty rescinded the deadline.

However, the county has kept upwith and surpassed the states solidwaste reduction goal of 40 percentby 2001.

As long as the update is turnedin before Jan. 1, the county will beeligible to receive some new statefunding for solid waste manage-

ment, said Gayle Wilson, direc-tor of Orange County Solid WasteManagement.

The amount of funding willdepend on how many coun-ties across the state turn in theirupdates on time.

Wilson said the update willlikely be submitted to the statein December and estimated thatthe county could receive between$8,000 and $30,000.

County Manager Frank Cliftonemphasized the importance offinalizing the plan in time.

Theyre not large dollaramounts, but delays in having

a plan might jeopardize you forqualifying for those resources,

which would have to be made upin other fees, he said.

The county will host a publichearing Sept. 29 as part of theapproval process.

Well be asking the public theiropinion on the 61 percent goal andshow some of the progress wevemade towards it, Pollock said.

Unless all of Orange Countymakes the effort to participate, itdoesnt mean much.

Recognizing the need to reduce

solid waste or run out of room atthe county landfill on EubanksRoad, the county has implement-ed several practices to decrease

waste.Of course all landfills biode-

grade, so weve taken advantageof the rotting of the waste to makeextra space, Wilson said.

The county has encouragedincreased recycling, especiallythrough a ban on disposal of cor-rugated cardboard, which takes upa lot of space in the landfill.

Pollock said this effort prob-ably extended the landfills life bya year. The county also partnered

with Durham County to transfer itswaste temporarily.

The county is using a new mate-

rial to cover the landfill. The previ-ous cover soil used six timesthe space.

Additionally, the slow economyhas led to a decrease in waste a typical trend during economicslowdowns, Wilson said.

Orange County has delayedfinding a new landfill site throughdecreased waste, but it will contin-ue to look for a new site over thenext few years, Pollock said.

So the whole leftside was open andI was surprisedthe goalie wasnt

standing there.KirK Urso,UnC MidFielder

by AAron TAUbeaSSiStant SportS editor

In its two ACC games this sea-son, the No. 3 North Carolinamens soccer team dominated playin the midfield but did just enoughin front of the goal to eke out a pairof 1-0 victories.

In nonconference action Tuesdaynight against Wofford, UNCs badhabit very nearly did the Tar Heels

in, but a lateequalizer and anextra-time win-ner saved theday, as the TarHeels avoidedthe upset and

pulled out a heart-stopping 2-1overtime victory at Fetzer Field.

Though the Tar Heels neededovertime to pull out the win, coachElmar Bolowich expected a betterperformance from his third-ranked

squad against their SouthernConference opposition. Wofford came into Tuesdays

game with a record of 1-3-1, withthe only victory coming against

winless USC Upstate.In the end, you can be pleased

that we escaped with a win, butoverall, I must say that with thatkind of focus we cannot win games,Bolowich said.

Despite controlling posses-sion and creating numerous scor-ing opportunities throughout thegames first 70 minutes, the TarHeels (4-1) found themselves still

searching for a goal when Woffords Armin Kinigadner earned a pen-alty after being tackled by UNCdefender Brett King.

On the ensuing penalty kick,UNC goalie Scott Goodwin doveright, Kinigadner shot left and theTerriers suddenly held an improb-able 1-0 lead.

We know we came out soft,sophomore midfielder EnzoMartinez. We know that, so its noneed to keep saying it, keep sayingit. We all know what we did wrong,and it was very frustrating that thathappened.

But just as it appeared theTerriers were about to steal a vic-

tory, UNC found the goal it hadbeen so desperately seeking. Withless than three minutes remain-ing, UNC freshman Bruno Castroplayed a cross into the Wofford

box. The ball took a deflection offa Terrier defender and wound upat the feet of UNCs Eddie Ababio,

who smacked the ball into the bot-tom-right corner of the net to sendthe game into overtime.

I remember looking at the clock,and it was actually going by so slow

because I was looking at it so much,Martinez said. When I saw thatgoing in, it was a great feeling.

The games second tie scoredidnt last nearly as long as its first.Just four and a half minutes intoovertime, UNC midfielder Kirk

Urso drew a foul attempting toreceive a through ball from Ababioat the edge of the Wofford 18-yard

box.A dead-ball specialist, Urso saw

an opening in the Wofford defenseand decided to strike.

I looked and the goalie wasjust in the center of the goal andthe wall was set up to my right,Urso said. So the whole left side

was open, and I was surprised thatthe goalie wasnt standing there. SoIm like, Okay, well Ill just shoot itright to the left.

Urso calmly struck the ball left

of the Wofford wall and into theback of the net, giving UNC a sud-den-death victory by the skin of itsteeth.

Though Urso, Martinez andBolowich all said they were frus-trated with the way the team letthe Terriers hang around, Ursothinks Tuesdays close call willmake the Tar Heels better in thelong run.

I think its something that wecan learn from and work on in prac-tice, Urso said. I think we need tolearn to make more dissecting runsand attack more, just making moresolid opportunities.

Disconnected and continuouslydenied, the North Carolina offense

just could not find its rhythm

Tuesday night against Woffordsmens soccer team.The young front line finally came

through for the Tar Heels with justmore than two minutes to spare asEddie Ababio found the back of thenet off a deflection from startingfreshman Bruno Castros cross.

Although the goal sent the gameinto overtime, which led to the TarHeels eventual 2-1 victory, theoffensive production and thelack thereof in the games first half showcased what UNC has triedto overcome early this season.

Were trying to patch up whatwere missing right now, UNC headcoach Elmar Bolowich said. Itsunfortunate that were missing threeattacking players in Cam Brown,

Alex Dixon and Billy Schuler.Redshirt freshman Josh Rice and

Castro alternated filling Dixonscleats at the forward spot, as thejunior rested a bruised quad sus-tained in last weeks game againstDuke.

The two rotated in and out ofplay to join Ababios side in theattack, and the chemistry amongthem attested to the adjustmentsNorth Carolinas offense has hadto make so far this season.

Castro and Ababio are both fillingin gaps in the front line by makingmajor position changes. The formermidfielder and left back, respectively,are continuing to work on their flow

as the season and their experiencetogether on the field progress.

These guys need a little bit moretime to mature in Division I soccer to know how they can make an

impact, Bolowich said.All five of North Carolinas first-half shots came from the midfieldline that kept UNC in possession forthe majority of the game. But pos-session didnt necessarily equate toproduction, as UNC entered half-time tied with t he Terriers 0-0.

The offense struggled withWoffords keeper Andrew Drennanonce more in the second half asshots continued to narrowly missgaps in the goal or bounce off thecrossbar.

Key shots at the right timesmade all the difference for the TarHeels, especially for the front line.

For (Ababio) to go from the leftback to up top and doing what hesdoing, I applaud him. I really do,sophomore Enzo Martinez said.The people who are getting their

chances are really taking advantageof it.Despite first half struggles, the

attack is confident that it will findits place in UNCs offense in thenear future.

Weve been working together atpractice with different combinationsof strikers, so we dont look sharp,

but slowly were building chemistryand well get there, Ababio said.We just need to make more runs,and our timing needs to get better.

ing and mentoring.They had over 400 alumni

advisors. They have a lot of lead-ership from their alumni, which issomething we have lacked. We havestrong leadership on the sororityside and a lack of that on the fra-ternity side, Gardner said.

After adding alumni advisors,Gardner said the Universitys Greekorganizations could see a spike incommunity service, a reductionin misbehavior and a more openrelationship with the student bodyat large.

The fraternities and sorori-ties themselves were pushing theenvelope to being not only sociallyoriented but also very involved incampus and the intellectual life of(Indiana University), he said.

UNC alumnus Jordan Whichard,who served as a special adviser forGreek affairs during the spring

semester, said he came to similarconclusions during his research.

In addition to recognizing the

potential for alumni advisers toprovide oversight into rush, men-toring and fraternities judiciaryprocesses, Whichard said he foundthat deferring rush to spring like

the University of Virginia wouldnot be the most sensible option forUNC.

There are other ways to achievethose positive outcomes thansimply by deferring rush, said

Whichard, whose consult endedin May.

If academic achievement in thefirst semester is inhibited by pledg-ing, there are ways to change thepledge program.

And Interfraternity CouncilPresident Tucker Piner, who willspeak at the meeting, said he doesntthink moving rush is a solution.

Ive heard from every frater-nity that it would be detrimental,Piner said. Its almost like movingaround from a problem rather thanaddressing it and fixing it .

Piner, who will speak at the

meeting today, said the Greeksystem must look within itself forimprovements and focus on the

quality of recruits rather than therecruiting schedule.

If we keep recruiting peoplethat are taking away from the sys-tem, theyre going to recruit people

like that, Piner said. There are abunch of good guys. Its just thatthere are a few bad eggs that ruinit for everybody.

Piner said that culture is per-petuated by a negative impressionof fraternities.

We fall on crutch of whats easi-est, which is partying and drink-ing. Thats not necessarily what

we need to put out front, Pinersaid. We need to show that whatscool is being a leader, being goodto women and doing well in theclassroom.

UNC is developing a way toattract some of the worlds smart-est, most innovative minds.

Chancellor Holden Thorp andentrepreneur in residence BuckGoldstein tackle this issue in a bookthat will be released Sept. 29.

Engines of Innovation exploresthe ideas of social and commercialentrepreneurship, which Goldsteinsaid became even more pressingafter the recent financial crisis. At the

Bulls Head Bookshop on Tuesday, hesaid solving those economic prob-lems begins with students.

Instead of starting at the top with administrators, students arethe consumers but also the produc-ers, he said. It starts with them.

Goldstein said the aim of thebook is to spur conversations aboutthe innovation and execution ofentrepreneurial activity.

He said the intersection of thosetwo ideas is key to developing asuccessful mindset.

The question is, how are ideasof everyday people turned into areality? he said.

He added the University is notmeant to be an assembly line forcreating more companies yet ifthe concept is explored properly, hesaid this will happen on its own.

Instead, Thorp and Goldsteinare striving to show that entre-preneurship requires a broad viewof the world, connecting dots andputting patterns together.

The difficulty of entrepreneur-

ship is that it is not for everyone.I dont think that Im the kind

of person that could get everythingtogether that I needed in order torun a business by myself, seniorLily McHugh said.

Other students have more con-fidence in their entrepreneurialfuture. Goldstein said that last

years first year seminar on entre-preneurship inspired him andThorp to finish the book, incorpo-rating ideas from the seminars 25students.

He also said an innovationincubator will open soon in theStudent Union to advance studententrepreneurship.

Freshman Laura McCready, amember of Nourish International,said the groups hunger lunchesin the Pit are an example of socialentrepreneurship.

Its all about being creative,innovative and raising money, shesaid.

Last years seminar developed awebsite, Revupinovation.com, to

stress the importance of expandingentrepreneurship at UNC.

Goldstein said he hopes theUniversity can come to be knownas an entrepreneurial campus, as

well as a research one.He also said experimentation

successful or not is the first step.Failure is acceptable, he said.

You cant be an entrepreneurwithout some failures

Housekeeping issues dominatedthe Employee Forum on Tuesday,including news that some forummembers will meet with ChancellorHolden Thorp in a closed meetingMonday.

Chairwoman Jackie Overtonsaid the meeting will cover thecontrovers ia l h ousekeeping

Wage-Hour policy, among otherissues.

This will be a good opportunityfor the chancellor to hear first handabout the issues without outsideinterference, Overton said.

She and James Holman, a house-keeper and forum representative,

also said they think Tonya Sell,assistant director of housekeepingservices, should be reassigned to adifferent position.

The suggestion drew wide-spread approval from many whoattended, most of whom were nothousekeepers.

They added that Sell has beenintimidating employees, particu-larly those who have been most

vocal in the ongoing controversy.The forum composed of

staff and non-faculty employees who were elected to representtheir departments voiced itsapproval of the closed meeting

with Thorp.Housekeepers are prohibited

from sitting on the job withoutpermission from their supervisors,

a policy that brought controversyafter eight housekeepers were dis-ciplined in late July and August forsitting down on the job withoutnotifying their supervisors.

Three of the attendees of theclosed meeting will be housekeep-ing employees who publicly statedtheir grievances about the policy ata Sept. 8 protest.

Aside from Thorp and Overton,six faculty and staff members

will be attending, including VanDobson, executive director of facili-ties services, and three housekeep-ers, including Holman.

Holman said the meeting willbe valuable to changing the poli-cies that are detrimental to house-keeping staff.

He added that he hoped Thorpwill hold another meeting to inviteinterested community members to

join the conversation.Overton said she thinks the

meeting will be productive, giventhose who will be in attendance.

Those people who are in themeeting on Monday are who needto be there, Overton said.

Were interested in gettingto the heart of the matter, sheadded.

Topics such as campus-issuedcell phone policy, temporaryemployees, furloughs and layoffs

were also discussed.

A local nonprofit is providingfree swimming lessons to 14 blackchildren in an effort to eliminate aracial disparity.

Next month, the Chapel Hill-Carrboro YMCA will collaborate

with the South Orange CountyFamily Resource Center in hopes

that the lessons will boost thenumber of local black children whoknow how to swim.

Some families in our commu-nity have the financial means toprovide swim lessons to their kids,Greg Lee, the senior membershipand marketing director of the Y,said in an e-mail.

Some do not, and the Y doesntbelieve that decisions about swimlessons, as well as other vital pro-grams, should simply be based onthe financial means of families.

The drowning rate for blackpeople across all ages was 1.2 timesthat of whites between 2000 and2007, according to the Centers forDisease Control and Prevention.

But these rates are notably high-er for children. Black children ages5 to 14 are 3.1 times more likely to

drown than white children in thesame age group.The reason for this difference,

in my personal opinion, is relatedto historical disparities in accessto water, like beaches or pools,

between African Americans andwhites, said Steve Marshall, a fac-ulty member at the UNC InjuryPrevention Research Center.

The local partnership beganwhen Kathy Glosson, the formerafter-school care coordinator forthe resource center, wanted thechildren to have swim lessons

before attending an end of the yearactivity at a pool.

The YMCA and the center hadbeen planning the swimming les-sons since May but had to wait tostart the lessons until October dueto scheduling conflicts.

The participating children wereselected on a first-come, first-served basis, and all who applied

were admitted.Certainly more children are

interested, but due to a lack oftransportation, many parents areunable to get their children backand forth to the Y to take the class-

es, said Alesia Sanyika, the resourcecenters program coordinator.

The center serves many familiesthat receive Temporary Assistancefor Needy Families, meaning theycannot afford to spend their lim-ited income on a luxury item likeswim lessons, Sanyika said.

Most YMCA swim classes lastfour to six weeks and range from

about $50 to $80 per lesson fornon-YMCA members.

Butch Kisiah, director of theChapel Hill Parks and RecreationDepartment, said because he has

witnessed children drowning in thepast, he thinks swimming lessonsshould be incorporated into schoolcurriculum.

If kids feel comfortable being inthe water and are confident in their

swimming abilities, they wouldparticipate more in swimming,Kisiah said.

His department is teaming upwith the North Carolina AquaticClub to offer a program similar tothe YMCAs, which will be put inplace this spring or summer at the

A.D. Clark pool, Kisiah said.The fatal drowning rates of black

people were brought to nationalattention after six black teenag-ers drowned in an attempt to save

their relative from the Red River inLouisiana this summer.

The Louisiana drowning onlyreaffirmed the need for all chil-dren to know water safety andswimming skills before getting intoswimming pools, lakes or oceans,Sanyika said.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT) A Republican-led filibuster onTuesday blocked efforts to repeal

the dont ask, dont tell policy ongays in the military, shelving anObama administration priority atleast until after the election.

The measure repealing the mili-tary policy banning gay men andlesbians from serving openly waspart of the 2011 defense authoriza-tion bill. Democrats tried to bringup the bill for consideration butfailed to get the 60 votes necessaryto overcome determined GOP-led opposition. Supporters voted56-43 in favor of starting debateon the defense bill, short of the 60needed.

Democrats control 59 votes inthe Senate.

By blocking the bill, Republicansalso held up passage of the so-called

DREAM Act, an immigration mea-sure that was to provide a route tocitizenship for young people who

were in the country illegally buthad attended college or served inthe military.

Supporters of repealing thedont ask, dont tell policy vowedto try again.

This aint over, Sen. JosephLieb erman, I -Conn. , wh oauthored the repeal measure, saideven before the vote. Its longpast time to repeal this policy.

The outcome was all but setearlier Tuesday when Sen. SusanCollins of Maine, a key Republican

who supported repealing dontask, dont tell signaled her unease

with the limited floor schedule fordebate. Collins had been the onlyRepublican to support the repealin an earlier committee vote.

LOS ANGELES (MCT) Firstlady Michelle Obama will makeher first foray into the midtermelection cycle in mid-October,launching a series of trips that

will take her to six states, end-ing with a California swing that

will include fundraisers for theDemocratic National Committee,House Speaker Nancy Pelosi andDemocratic Sen. Barbara Boxer.

For now the first ladys scheduleis primarily focused on fundrais-ing, partly because the first ladygenerally does not travel on week-ends and it is difficult to schedulerallies in the middle of the work

week, senior officials said. But herevents are certain to draw signifi-cant public interest, and with thefirst ladys approval ratings out-pacing her husbands by doubledigits, the White House clearlysees her as an effective voice forhis agenda.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT) President Barack Obamaannounced Tuesday that oneof his main economic advisers,Lawrence Summers, will be leav-ing at the end of the year.

Obama had asked Summers,the director of the NationalEconomic Council and assistantto the president for economicpolicy, to stay through 2010 tohelp pass a financial regulatoryoverhaul and to continue guid-ing the stimulus program passedlast year, a senior administrationofficial said. Summers will returnto Harvard University.

I will always be grateful thatat a time of great peril for ourcountry, a man of Larrys bril-liance, experience and judg-ment was willing to answerthe call and lead our economicteam, Obama said in a state-ment.

KABUL, Afghanistan Nine Western service members diedTuesday in a helicopter crash insouthern Afghanistan, makingthis the deadliest year for NATOin the nine-year war.

Military officials did notimmediate l y di sc l ose th enationalities of the dead orsay precisely where the crashhappened. Two other Westerntroops an Afghan soldier andan American civilian wereinjured, NATOs InternationalSecurity Assistance Force saidin a statement.

But an ISAF official, speak-ing on condition of anonymity

because he was not authorized tocomment publicly, said the crashtook place in Zabul province, aTaliban stronghold. A provin-cial spokesman said the chop-per went down in the Daichopandistrict.
