$100 million gift prompts innovation

Pharmacy
school is using
gift to fund
research
By Maggie Budd
Staff Writer

In December 2014, UNC alumnus

Fred Eshelman made a $100 million
commitment to the UNC Eshelman
School of Pharmacy. In May, the
pharmacy school launched the
Eshelman Institute for Innovation,
which uses the Eshelman money to
encourage students, faculty and staff
to take risks in research.
That is the beauty of the gift to
position our faculty, staff and students to take risks with the hope that
some of those will become huge successes, said Bob Blouin, dean of the
pharmacy school and director of the
Eshelman Institute for Innovation.
Dhiren Thakker, associate dean
for entrepreneurial development
and global engagement, said he has
already seen the donation at work in
the Institute.
Thakker said the donation will
help produce a whole new culture in
the pharmacy school.
Entrepreneurship and innovation will become the fabric of the
school, he said.

Young Innovator Program

Adam Friedman, a post-doctoral
fellow at the Institute, is working
to extend the reach of Eshelmans
money through the Young
Innovator Program.
As of right now, the program is

still in its developmental stages, but

Friedman said the program would
allow high school students in the
area to take classes at their schools
while also participating in research
at the University.
Its always been my personal desire
to get people who have a passion and

capability for science into labs as soon

as possible, Friedman said.
Friedman said the students would
be involved in applied research.
Its research geared at trying to
solve problems presenting themselves to society now, Friedman said.
There are also plans to develop a

similar undergraduate program in

the future, though Friedman said
this program is not as far along.
Thakker supports the idea of distributing the money to benefit faculty, staff and students alike.
Students are clearly very important generators of ideas, so funding

Poll shows tight mayoral race

Chapel Hill mayoral
candidates are polling
the closest since 2009.
By Savannah Britt
Staff Writer

As the November election draws

closer, polls indicate the race for
mayor in Chapel Hill is a competitive one.
Tom Jenson, director of Public
Policy Polling said while the mayor
is relatively popular and favored
for re-election, it is going to be a
much closer race than is customary for the town.
In past elections Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt has run unopposed, but former Orange County
Commissioner Pam Hemminger
might be giving him a run for his
money.

Things will inevitably change

between now and the election
because there are so many undecided voters, Jenson said. I think
its a sign for the candidates that
everybody has a chance to win if
they can convince voters that they
have the right vision for the town.
According to polls, 33 percent
of voters are undecided for mayor.
While 40 percent of voters said they
are inclined to vote for challengers, only 25 percent said they are
inclined to vote for the incumbent.
I am pleased about the poll
responses, Kleinschmidt said.
The numbers reflect that people
are engaged in conversation about
our community.
Hemminger also expressed
interest in the polls.
I am very excited about the
recent polls, I think it shows
people arent satisfied with the
direction the town is heading in,

According to a poll conducted by left-leaning Public Policy Polling, only 25 percent of voters say they
are generally inclined to vote for incumbents, compared to 40 percent who say they are inclined to
vote for challengers. The following numbers represent the voters preference for Chapel Hill mayor.

Kyesha Clark, a junior at

Carrboro High School, said she
did not notice diversity at her
school until the school system
was redistricted.
They redistricted everything,
but you still couldnt see the

equality in the honors classes,

Clark said.
She said she began seeing
more African-American students
in the hallway, but that diversity
disappeared once she entered her
classrooms. It appeared to her that
there were a surplus of minority
students in standard classes, while
upper-level classes were exclusively white students.
Im the one cocoa puff in a
bowl of milk, Clark said.

The Interfraternity Council passed

an amendment one year ago this month
requiring all new members to complete
a University-approved sexual assault and
violence prevention training program.
Thirteen of the 24 IFC fraternities at
UNC have completed the required training, and more than 257 fraternity members have been certified through 16 One
Act training sessions.
New pledges at IFC fraternities are
expected to complete the same training
after initiation.
The amendment was passed unanimously, and all the presidents thought
it was a good idea, IFC President Peter
Diaz said.
Everyone thinks this is an important
issue to learn about and everyone treats
the training with seriousness and respect.
IFC fraternities typically train through
One Act, a student-led organization that
collaborates with Student Wellness staff
to train and educate students about sexual
assault, the necessity of consent and how
bystanders can intervene to prevent interpersonal violence. There is a specific One
Act for Greeks program, tailored for members of Greek organizations.
Mostly its training to make sure that
students are prepared to work with students who have been through any kind of
violence, said Ion Outterbridge, assistant
director of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs
and Community Involvement.

Banned Books Week

This week, the Chapel

Hill Public Library will
be featuring banned
books with trading cards
designed by local artists.

Todays trading card features

the banned book The
Grapes of Wrath by John
Steinbeck. The trading card
was designed by local artist
Colleen Barclay.
Steinbecks book has
been banned in schools
due to its profanity and
sexual references. In 1973,
Turkey banned the book
for spreading socialist
propaganda.
Barclay made this
statement: In Kern, Calif.,
where the story ends,
authorities banned and
burned this book in 1939.
Today, the county remains
impoverished, with the

California dream still out of

reach for many.
Pick up a copy of the physical
trading card at: the Chapel

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Jackie Helvey, on the Carrboro Music Festival

Jaslina Paintal

ear Chuck,
Remember that
email you sent me
about my column on the erasure of Black women at UNC?
I almost forgot about it.
Your email was to borrow
from your misspelled vernacular choked full of white
tears and wasnt high on my
list of priorities.
You claim you and the rest
of the Board of Trustees listen to Black women at UNC.
This claim is, as you put it,
manufactured for effect. Had
you listened to Black women
at UNC, you would not have
placed a 16-year moratorium on
the renaming of campus buildings. Had you listened to Black
women, you would have supported Hurston Hall; instead,
you whitewashed Saunders to
Carolina Hall. Had you listened
to Black women, you would
have considered how women of
color are silenced and attacked
before sending me that email.
Dont come at me with white
supremacy under the guise of
educating me on what Zora
Neale Hurstons work was about
and what the intentions of this
institution are. Thanks to the
organizing and labor of Black
women in the Real Silent Sam
Coalition, I have been educated
on Hurston, and thanks to the
boards track record of condoning institutionalized racism, I
have plenty of receipts of the
intentions of this institution.
You say Hurston was 48
years old and not a student.
Hurston was never enrolled
as a student here because she
couldnt be. She was barred
because she was a Black woman.
You write, Did you know that
she was also against desegregation? that is one of the main
reasons her career cratered in
late life. Hurston criticized
desegregation because she knew
it would mean assimilating into
a proverbial burning house.
You pretend Hurstons
legacy does not have a profound impact on Black women
and women of color. You act
as though Hurston should be
erased. Are we to disown her
now that you remind us that she
did not advocate for the further
subjection of her people through
the pretense of desegregation?
Hurstons career did not decline
because she criticized desegregation, Chuck. Her career
declined because she spoke
truth to power, and people
just like you were uncomfortable. People like you silenced
her then, and you attempt to
silence her now. I am here to let
you know that Hurston, Black
women and women of color will
not be silenced.
History repeats itself in your
email; speaking truth to you
results in your discomfort, and
you project the goals of this
institution onto me. You tell me,
I think your column actually
might drive away black women
from our campus because it
misrepresents what Carolina
really is doing. Is that your
intention? But this question is
better directed at the board.
You and your white male
discomfort feel the need to
extinguish the lives and legacies of Hurston, Black women
and women of color. I am not
misrepresenting what this institution and the board are doing,
Chuck. I am exposing it. Your
ahistorical amnesia is embarrassing and petty at best, and
violent at worst. Now do your
homework, Chuck.

In defense of Robert
E. Lees actions

EDITORIAL

The wool over our eyes

Orange County
should reinvest
from jail to schools.

his month, a
Charlotte-based
architecture firm
began designing a new jail
for Orange County, which
would increase its capacity by 87 compared to the
current structure.
Propaganda describing the humanity in a
new jail is based upon the
premise that containing
human beings like chattel can be humane. What
good is a more humane
penal institution, when
additional counseling and
wellness, solar panels and
wider hallways will not
lower the number of black
and Latino/a folks subject
to detainment or harassment by police?
Implementing green
technologies obscures the
racialized underpinnings
of jails and prison, rather
than offering a solution
accountable to high incarceration rates for black and
brown people compared to
their white counterparts
for very similar crimes.
Improving conditions
within a prison is not
improving how our ideas of
race and gender shape who
is and who is not inherently criminal. Orange County
is not interested in creating
means for restorative and

transformative justice
community centered alternatives to jails. We should
invest our time-seeking
ways that undermine the
possession of black and
brown people and encourage our town councils to
seek other means of creating justice that are antiracist and noncapitalist.
Instead it seems with
this investment of $20
million, the county would
rather see this money
going toward containing
people of color, rather
than educating and creating equity for students by
investing in public schools
or affordable housing.
In Chapel Hill-Carrboro
City Schools, black students are five times more
likely to be suspended than
their white counterparts.
This trend is not unique to
the Chapel Hill-Carrboro
school system, as studies
have shown that disparate
practices of excessive discipline and policing lead to
higher numbers of people
of color incarcerated or
involved in the criminal
justice system.
Statistics have shown,
as recently as 2010, that
black men were six times
as likely as white men to be
incarcerated. Black women
were almost three times
as likely to be incarcerated
compared to white women
and are a growing demographic involved in the

prison industrial complex.

These numbers should
not be surprising as isolation and over-policing of
predominately black and
Latino/a communities
increase, so does the incarceration or detainment of
these residents. Fueling
this pathology that blacks
and Latino/a students are
predestined for jail is standardized testing. Low test
scores are used as an excuse
to divest from public education, lessening the number
of after-school programs
keeping kids from interacting with police.
Concern over the school
to prison pipeline has been
massive. Activists and educators have formed numerous coalitions calling for
an end to zero-tolerance
policies and high numbers of suspensions and
expulsions. When Orange
County authorized plans
for a $20 million jail, they
were in opposition to ending the school-to-prison
pipeline and should consider a moratorium on carceral institutions. This is
of utmost urgency because
public coffers should not
be used to expand the
containment of black and
Latino/a people.
Instead, our efforts need
to be focused on putting
an end to disciplining and
policing black students
and ongoing gentrification
of Chapel Hill.

EDITORIAL

Localize the vote

Students should
care about local
elections.

f anything is clear
about Chapel Hill,
it is, as Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt said in a
recent debate, that this
is a town where for every
three people, there are
four opinions. This is
certainly true of the UNC
student community as
well. The University is a
hotbed of debate and passionate engagement.
But most undergraduate students dont engage
much in the politics of
Chapel Hill, and it makes
sense to an extent for
transient students.
But students also tend
to be very passionate
about their identities as
UNC students and care
a great deal about the
University. The school and
the town are inextricably
linked, and the fortunes of
one affect the other.
Students should
attempt to engage in
town politics and help
to responsibly shape the

future of Chapel Hill.

There is a sense of division between students,
especially undergraduates,
and the rest of the town,
where the students arent
part of the real town.
But students live in the
town, patronize its businesses, volunteer in its
schools, pay sales taxes and
otherwise benefit from its
resources. They should
have an increased say in
how the politics of how the
town is run, and they have
the ability to do so.
Students care a lot
about things affected by
local government, including the ability to live
affordably, development,
safety, the aesthetics of the
community and its environmental quality.
Students should therefore take the time to
research local candidates
for office and make an
effort to vote in local
elections.
For as much attention
as students give national
politics, local governance
more directly affects
the lives of students for
as long as they live in

Chapel Hill.
For the same reasons,
local candidates should
also try to educate and
engage with students,
who, busy with school and
work, might not always put
paying attention to town
council decisions high on
their list of priorities.
Local candidates can
act as both educators
and representatives by
informing students of the
interests they have in the
community.
It is the responsibility of both the electors
and elected to help create meaningful policy
that benefits the town
and creates a future that
is best for all of Chapel
Hills community.
Together, both groups
can share perspectives by
simply valuing the role
both play.
In this upcoming election it is important to
remember that Chapel
Hill is a town of students
too, and they should take
advantage of their votes
as they consider their
place in the town and its
future direction.

TO THE EDITOR:
I am glad Mr. Hawisher
has challenged my recent
letter both because discussion of historical issues
is intrinsically valuable and
because his representation
of Robert E. Lees view of
slavery is misleading.
Here are the facts. Lee
became custodian of the socalled dower slaves emancipated under his father-inlaws will. He took leave from
his army command in 1858
to work as executor. George
Washington Parke Custis
estate was burdened with
thousands in unpaid bills
and the Arlington estate was
in a state of dilapidation that
would cost thousands to fix.
Meanwhile, Lee was mandated as executor to emancipate the stipulated group
of slaves within five years as
to my executors may seem
most expedient and proper.
Custis son-in-law hoped
that the said slaves would
work during the interval to
defray the substantial cost
of their emancipation under
Virginia law.
As Mr. Hawisher says,
Lee was forced by a confusing passage in the Custis
will to ask for judicial ruling not in an attempt
to keep (the slaves) longer,
but because the testators
intention was unclear.
Had Custis intended to
emancipate the slaves only
after the estate paid the
legacies and debts, or had he
intended to free the slaves
regardless within five years?
I quote Jonathan Horns
recent book, The Man Who
Would Not Be Washington,
which is not partial to Lee
but is fair and balanced on
the dilemma. My review of
it, with further detail, may
be found on the internet.
Apparently, the Virginia
courts never gave a clear
answer. In any case, Lees
purpose was not to prolong
the enslavement of the
dower slaves beyond its
time in his own interest but
to follow his father-in-laws
lawful intentions.
Mr. Hawisher quotes a
letter to Mrs. Lee in which,
indeed, Lee wrote a few
years earlier that the blacks
are immeasurably better off
here than in Africa, morally,
socially and physically. He
fails, however, to cite Lees
words in the same letter:
In this enlightened age,
there are few, I believe, but
what will acknowledge that
slavery as an institution, is
a moral and political evil in
any country. This, I suggest,
sustains my statement that
Lee hated slavery but found
himself deeply entangled
in it. His vexed role as
executor was exactly such an
entanglement, giving him
yet further reason to despise
an unwieldy and, for him
unprofitable institution.
As for the motives of nonslaveholding Confederate
troopers, Mr. Hawishers
speculations are as worthy
as any other, including
mine. But speculations they
remain. Perhaps he is better able than I to read the

minds of the hallowed dead.

Debate is the better

way to find truth
TO THE EDITOR:
Friday, students in
Carolina Students for Life
chalked the message #prebornlivesmatter on the campus sidewalk. In response,
Students for Reproductive
Justice erased the message.
The Daily Tar Heel reported on the stirred drama
between Carolina Students
for Life and Students for
Reproductive Justice. While
the act of erasing/writing
chalk on a sidewalk is rather
trivial, a representative
from Students United for
Reproductive Justice justified the actions by making
claims that the words were
really triggering and not
safe for folks to read
which is more concerning.
This new trend of
suppressing debate and
labeling anything that is
uncomfortable as unsafe
is not only unproductive
but entirely illiberal. Much
of the progress and expansion of rights in America
has been entirely linked to
vigorous debate and conflicting opinions. Where
would we be today if debate
did not occur during segregation? Where would we be
if the country just decided
that a lack of womens suffrage was an unimpeachable policy?
So I make a call for not
just SURJ, but for all students: continue to debate.
Do not walk around with the
arrogance of moral superiority. Do not censor others
opinions. Listen to others,
present your arguments, and
a truth will emerge.

Frat Court should be

more inclusive
TO THE EDITOR:
I wish I werent painfully reminded I went to a
Primarily White Institution
anytime I encounter parties at frat court. The level
to which they discriminate
really has gone too far, and
it reinforces stereotypes that
should have been eradicated
long ago. For example, if
your skin is of darker color,
there is a 99 percent chance
that you will be stopped at
the door and asked, Do you
know a brother?
If you wear the Vineyard
Vines T-shirt and shorts
above the knee, accompanied
by the Sperrys, your chances
might increase by 10 percent.
Maybe thats stereotypical,
but thats the very thing
members of white frats do.
However, let a white individual come to a black house
party. No matter how packed
it already is, they dont turn
you away. They dont ask if
you know someone, because
that doesnt matter. Its saddening that Frat Court isnt
more like that.

Carrboro Music Festival continues tradition

By Kacey Rigsby
Staff Writer

A little rain cant stop a

tradition.
The Carrboro Music
Festival originated in 1998
as a part of the international
Fte de la Musique and
first took place on June 21 as
a celebration of the summer
solstice and Fathers Day.
Due to the summer heat
and the influx of returning
students and residents, the
festival was moved to the
last weekend of September

ONE ACT

violence, relationship violence, things of that nature.

Its going real good.
In addition to the fraternities, all of the Panhellenic
sororities have completed
One Act training.
That was our goal to
have fraternities sexual
assault trained. We encourage them to go to One Act for
Greeks, which is a campus
program, Diaz said. But
some of these organizations
have national requirements,
and they may have to do a different program or a certain

EQUITY

but said she was denied as the

counselor told her she did not
think Clark would be able to
get into college.
To implement reforms to
promote equality, the school
system introduced the Chapel
Hill-Carrboro Equity Task
Force at Saturdays meeting.
A representative from the
task force, Sheldon Lanier,
who is the equity leadership and AVID director for
CHCCS, discussed anticipated reforms, including more
three-day equity trainings for
teachers and changing the
in-school suspension position
at the middle school level to a
positive behavior and student

in 2002. Sunday, 18 years

later, its grown to include
about 180 bands in 25 different venues.
Although the festival is
a time-honored tradition,
attendees return for different reasons.
The variety of music and
the fact that people get up
and dance is the best part of
this whole thing, said David
Gellatly, a Chapel Hill photographer. Ive been coming for
10 years, and its gotten bigger
and better every year, with
more people in attendance.

Pittsboro resident Ellen

Manning and her husband
Mark Barroso appreciate
what the festival means for
their marriage.
My husband and I got married 12 years ago on this weekend, Manning said. We ended
up down here for the day, and
every year, we make it a really
important point to be here. I
wouldnt miss it for anything.
I look forward to it more than
anything the whole year.
For many people, the event
has become a family affair.
Since we had the kids,

so about seven years, weve

been coming to the festival
almost every year, Nikki
Worthington of Chapel Hill
said. We always meet people
that we know in town out
here, and I would say that its
become a tradition.
Its not just the different
types of music that attract
people, but the quality. The
talented bands all around town
impress even seasoned festivalgoers like Chapel Hill resident
Katherine Desrochers.
When I came to the first
music festival about 15 years

ago, I was totally blown

away by the caliber of music
around here, she said. This
year has surpassed everything.
No matter how long local
residents have lived in the
area, the festival still draws
people into the tradition.
There have been lots of
good bands so far that have
been really enjoyable to see
and get to meet people,
first-time attendee Michele
Casazza said. This kind of
stuff draws me in. Every single time its out there, music

is what fills me.

Co-founder and event photographer Jackie Helvey is
proud of what the festival has
become. She wrote a history
of the festival on carrboro.
com and believes its important for people to know how it
has evolved over the years.
Music brings people
together, she said in an email.
Thats whats so
great about this festival.
Everywhere you look, there
are smiling faces.

program that their national

chapters have done.
If a fraternity opts to
complete sexual assault and
prevention training through
a program that isnt One Act,
the IFC must approve of the
alternate training.
If a chapter doesnt do
One Act for Greeks, we look
into the program theyre
doing, and if we think its
appropriate, we authorize it,
and if not, we make them do
more, Diaz said.
Diaz said new pledges
from each IFC fraternity will
have plenty of time to attend
training. Trainings will occur
throughout the school year.

If we all start One Act,

we can change the culture on
campus and seriously address
violence, said Julia Stroup,
co-chairperson for the steering committee and peer educator for One Act, in an email.
Diaz said IFC fraternities
are now required to complete the training yearly a
change from the original twoyear period.
He said the presidents of
each fraternity within the
IFC voted the amendment
into the constitution on
their own, without university involvement.

MAYOR RACE

said her main goal is to focus

on making affordable housing
a priority, creating more commercial space and having more
collaboration with schools.
There have been a large
number of citizens who
feel that their voices arent
being heard or their input
isnt being valued, said
Hemminger. I want to bring
diverse opinions to the table
and find solutions to our economic development there
are answers out there.
When asked about the
major issues during this election, Chapel Hill resident
Lynn Knauff said she thinks
growth and development is

the focus now.

Its how we want to grow,
where we want to grow and
what that growth will mean for
us, she said. For that reason
its been very interesting so far.
Jenson said the candidates
this year have created a highly
competitive race.
(Chapel Hill Alliance
for a Livable Town) has put
together an energetic group
of candidates that are making it a more competitive
race this year, which is creating a different dynamic and
organized opposition to the
incumbents, he said.

support specialist. Lanier

told the crowd it was not
just changing a job title but
changing the job description.
Establishing the task force
is just a starting point for
improving the school system
as the academic-achievement
gap continues to increase.
Grade level proficiency statistics from 2014-15 show that
minority students continue to
fall behind their peers. While
90 percent of white students
were at least at grade level
proficiency, only 42 percent of
black and 47 percent of Latino
students were proficient.
Your programs and piecemeal efforts arent working,
parent Stephanie Perry said
to the crowd. The school system in Chapel Hill works for

some kids but not for other

kids particularly AfricanAmerican children.
Judy Jones, a substitute
teacher, started teaching in
1966. When she transferred to
East Chapel Hill High School
in 1984, she said it was her
first time having black students. She said she remains a
firm advocate for equity training for teachers and students.
Its absolutely needed,
Jones said. Not just for faculty
and staff but students too. We
are so focused on GPA and test
scores that we forget that these
people are going off to live in
an actual world. We need to
do more social and emotional
learning for these kids.

cal trials, he said.

Hingtgen said without
the Eshelman money, transitioning his new technologies from the lab to clinical
trials, and eventually to
patient treatment, would
take much longer.
It allows for research and
commercialization to happen
simultaneously, he said.
Hingtgen said while other
funding groups shy away
from innovative, risky ideas,
the Eshelman board encourages them.

Hes a member of our

steering board, and he gives
us guidance and helps provide philosophy, and I think
its really his spirit of innovation and entrepreneurialism
that has made him as successful as it has that, in a lot of
ways, helps provide us with
the inspiration to go and do
the things that were doing,
Moore said.
Blouin said he has high
hopes for the Eshelman
money in the future.
We want to create a culture of innovation across
our entire organization, and
we believe that students are
going to become an integral
part of that, Blouin said.

Kleinschmidt is in support

which focuses on a combination of parking, housing,

Volunteers paint homes in Northside

The initiative was
part of A Brush With
Kindness Week.
By Isabella Lupoli
Staff Writer

If I can do my duties as
a good man ought, if I can
bring back beauty to a world
up wrought, if I can spread
loves message that the master
taught, then my living shall
not be in vain, sang Prince
Taylor, owner of a freshlypainted house.
Habitat for Humanity of
Orange County partnered
with the Northside neighborhood to do exterior beautification on four homes as
a part of National A Brush
With Kindness Week.
The four homes that
received beautification
services were not Habitat
houses, but homes of elderly
Northside community members that were unable to do
the repairs themselves. More
than 100 volunteers helped
the owners paint exterior walls

and shutters and trim and

pressure wash where needed.
On Friday, Habitat held
a dedication ceremony for
the homes in the Hargraves
Community Center.
Chapel Hill Town Council
member and Northside resident Donna Bell said the room
was filled with Northside
families who tracked each others growths by school performances, hairstyles, relationships and children.
Rev. Thomas O. Nixon of
St. Paul AME Church introduced the families: Prince
Taylor and his wife Jean
Taylor, Avon Lassiter Sr.,
Velma Perry and Eva Carlotta
Lindsay all long-time
members of the community.
I just get to stand in the
aura that you emit, Mayor
Mark Kleinschmidt said,
noting the kindness and love
in the room. You all are the
leaders of the leaders.
He then presented each
of the homeowners with a
T-shirt, a doormat and an
exchange of embraces.
Kleinschmidt was followed
by Bell, who prefaced her

speech by admitting she was

trying not to cry.
What I dont feel here is
not seen, not appreciated and
not loved, she said holding
back tears. I love you all and
appreciate the work that you
do as we try to keep our community the way that it is.
Adwoa Asare, the community development manager
for Orange Countys Habitat
for Humanity, thanked
Jersey Mikes, who donated
the food, and Fitch Lumber
& Hardware, who tinted
the paint. Wells Fargo and
Valspar, national sponsors
of the event, donated $40
million and $60 million,
respectively, as well as 2 million gallons of paint. Over
150 families nationwide were
served during A Brush With
Kindness Week thanks to
them, said Asare.
At the end of the dedication ceremony, Prince
Taylor sang If I Can Help
Somebody by Mahalia
Jackson.
If I can help somebody
as I pass along, if I can cheer
somebody with a word or a

song, he sang. If I can show

somebody how theyre traveling wrong, then my living
shall not be in vain.
A blessing closed the

dedication and the crowd

was asked to read the ending together: So wherever
life may take you, whatever
future that fate charts, we

hope this home will last forever, and dwell deep within
your hearts.

Spouses and partners of

international students and
scholars who are sometimes overlooked in the
UNC international community now have their own
University organization.
The UNC Spouses and
Partners Group is an organization that welcomes
spouses and partners of all
international students, scholars and other affiliates. The

group meets every Friday at

10 a.m. on the fourth floor of
the FedEx Global Education
Center.
The group enjoys food
together, exchanges experiences about coping with American
culture and shares different
cultures in its weekly meetings.
Lola Tasar, a social work
intern at International
Student and Scholar Services,
created the group and established it four weeks ago.
Tasar said she hopes the
group fosters a sense of
belonging for international
spouses and partners.
She said once the group
reaches a certain number of
members, she wants to add
activities such as cooking

classes, hiking classes and

reading clubs.
This is my goal to help
them and other people share
resources and meet outside
the group, she said.
Elizabeth Barnum, director of International Student
and Scholar Services, said
the group was established to
help form close relationships
between the local community and international spouses
or partners.
What we found is that,
many times, the accompanying
spouses or partners may need
some assistance to (connect)
with friends and communities so that they are aware of
various resources that might be
available, she said.

Students crowdfund for

Ugandan children
The money will
go toward a skill
development center.
By Sarah McAdon
Staff Writer

When UNC juniors Ella

Simmons and Jamie Stuart
traveled to Gulu, Uganda,
this summer, they noticed a
lack of resources available to
children. To fill the void, they
decided to transform a field
into a safe center for children
to develop critical skills.
During the last days of a
month spent teaching women
to think about starting small
businesses and providing loans
through a microfinancing
internship with the Womens
Global Empowerment Fund,
Simmons said she recognized
their impact on the people in
Gulu was short lived.
She wanted to take more
permanent action.
Locals would always say
the programs are amazing
until the Americans go back
to their own lives. Nothing
retains the progress made by
the programs, she said.
In a split-second decision,
Simmons and Stuart, a The
Daily Tar Heel reporter, chose
to do something that would
last far past their departure.
We were walking down-

town, and we saw an empty

field, and Jamie turned to me
and said, What if we buy it?
Simmons said. Fast forward
48 hours later, and we were
planning a project, making
deals with people, and it just
kind of happened.
They decided to turn the
plot of land into a place
that would combat the lack
of resources available for
Ugandan children.
It was so weird. (Gulu) had
all these great programs working with the adults, but then
we would go play monkey in
the middle with the kids with
a broken mug found on the
ground, Simmons said.
I want to give them a safe
space to learn English, to gain
computer technology skills
and to even develop an artistic aspect of their education.
With a currency difference
of one U.S. dollar to more
than 3,600 Ugandan shillings,
Simmons said the $50,000
they are attempting to raise on
GoFundMe will go a long way.
This will be a place where
people can get jobs and will
be locally run by Ugandans
to make it more permanent,
Simmons said. Id love to
say, Lets start today, but we
have to wait on the money to
make this as long-lasting as
possible, with the strongest
foundation possible.
Senior Thomas Doochin,

We saw an empty
field Jamie turned
to me and said,
What if we buy it?

This is my goal to help them and other

people share resources.

Socializing is not easy,

sometimes you might say a flat

QB Mitch Trubisky answers the call

The redshirt sophomore set 4
personal records on Saturday
FOOTBALL

NORTH CAROLINA
41
DELAWARE14
By Mohammed Hedadji
Senior Writer

Mitch Trubisky waited patiently.

After being thrown into a trying quarterback battle as a redshirt first-year in 2014, Trubisky
showed flashes of excellence with
the North Carolina football team
entering the season.
But in the end, Marquise
Williams won the starting spot.
Since being named the backup
quarterback, Trubisky has played
sparingly. But the redshirt sophomore knew his name could be called
at any minute.
After a sloppy start offensively in
UNCs 41-14 win over Delaware on
Saturday, the backup got the nod.
I got on the phone with my
offensive coordinator, and he said,
Youre on, Trubisky said.
But even after playing one drive
in the first half and a majority of
the second, Trubisky didnt know
how much action he would get. Not
knowing which series would be his
last, Trubisky said he focused on
making the most of each one.
The coaches noticed and let
Trubisky lead the charge the rest of
the way.
We put Mitch in, and Mitch
ran the offense well, Coach Larry
Fedora said. So I decided to leave
him in.

When the change was made at

quarterback, the rest of the offense
didnt miss a step. So much so that
some players didnt even notice.
I dont know when the switch
happened, said wide receiver Ryan
Switzer. You look up and theres a
different guy at quarterback.
Trubiskys chemistry with his
teammates came down to the reps
he gets during practice.
While many teams will practice
the starting quarterback primarily with the first string, Fedora has
taken a unique approach.
Were a little bit different
because were about 55-45 (percent)
practice-wise, Fedora said. Its not
uncommon for (Trubisky) to go in
with the ones.
And Trubiskys experience practicing with the starters also allows
the quarterback to further develop
as a player.
The more live reps he gets,
whether its in a game or in practice, the better he is going to be prepared when his number is called,
Switzer said.
When that moment came,
Trubisky was ready.
The coaches gave him an opportunity against Delaware, and in
return, he gave them 17 completions,
four passing touchdowns and 351
total yards which were all singlegame career highs.
He even broke his personal
record for longest completion on
a 64-yard bomb to junior wide
receiver Mack Hollins and set a
single-game school record with a
282 pass efficiency rating.

DTH/KENDALL BAGLEY
Mitch Trubisky (10) throws a pass during Saturdays game against Delaware. Trubisky broke four personal records.

For Trubisky, the trust his coaches

and players showed in him gave him
the assurance to shine.
It helps me have confidence
when my coaches have confidence
in me, Trubisky said. It just allows
me to play the game like Ive always
played the game.
Even after the best game of

Trubiskys career, Fedora confirmed

Williams who left the game after
being sacked for an 11-yard loss in
the second quarter is still the
starter moving forward.
The redshirt sophomores performance on Saturday certainly raised
questions among fans and media
members, but the quarterback battle

wont be opened back up just yet.

But whether he competes for the
starting spot this year or remains the
backup quarterback, Trubisky will
be ready when hes turned to again.
Hell be waiting for his next
opportunity.

Panthers give UNC rst ACC loss in 1 year

VOLLEYBALL

PITTSBURGH3
NORTH CAROLINA
0
By Kiley Burns
Staff Writer

In 2014, the North Carolina volleyball team finished the regular

season with only one loss against
ACC opponents.
But on Sunday, the Tar Heels
18-game winning streak against the
ACC came to an end with a 3-0 loss
against Pittsburgh (25-23, 25-18,
25-23).

UNC started off strong in its

ACC opener on Friday, defeating
Virginia Tech 3-1 (25-15, 26-28,
25-15, 25-7). But the Tar Heels
(4-7, 1-1 ACC) failed to carry this
momentum to their Sunday match
against Pittsburgh.
We had a great attitude on Friday
against Virginia Tech, said senior
setter Jordyn Schnabl. We need to
be able to maintain that same level
for two whole matches in a weekend,
not just one.
Coach Joe Sagula credited the
victory over Virginia Tech to strong
serving and passing. The Tar Heels
outhit the Hokies .313 to .087 and
posted 12 blocks.

Dominant play by senior middle

blockers Victoria McPherson and
Paige Neuenfeldt helped carry
the Tar Heels to a victory over the
Hokies, but Sundays match was a
different story from Fridays.
The Panthers outhit the Tar Heels
.303 to .198 on Sunday. UNC is
known for its dominant front row
defense, but the team failed to produce its typical block output, totaling only seven blocks overall.
Blocking is something you cannot always count on to be your number one skill, Sagula said. Its not
the one thing we want to look to to
carry us. We have to pass well, serve
well and be more efficient overall.

Quotable

Three numbers that matter

The inconsistency is really driving us crazy. Its a matter of being

focused every time we get to show
up. Sagula on his teams greatest
problem this season.

18: Consecutive ACC victories

for UNC prior to Sundays loss
against Pittsburgh.
7: UNCs national ranking in
blocks per set. The Tar Heels lead
the ACC with 3.11 blocks per set.
366: Days between Sundays loss
and UNCs previous conference loss
to Florida State on Sept. 26, 2014.

Notable
McPherson hit .517 with a careerhigh 16 kills and a season best seven
blocks against Virginia Tech.
Schnabls 10-0 service run set up
the Tar Heels victory in the fourth
set against Virginia Tech. She finished both games this weekend with
a double-double.

Whats next?
UNC will host Duke at 6 p.m.
Friday.

Olofson breaks scoring drought in win over Duke

MENS SOCCER

NORTH CAROLINA 2
DUKE1
By Jonah Lossiah
Staff Writer

Alex Olofson is not known

for his goal-scoring ability.
His lone career goal came
in his freshman year against
Boston College.
But three years later, in
Saturdays match against
Duke, his drought finally
ended.
The senior midfielder
from Raleigh helped lead the
No. 2 North Carolina mens
soccer team to a 2-1 victory
against the Blue Devils (4-31, 0-2-1 ACC). He registered
five shots, including two on
goal, and a score in 90 min-

utes of play.
Although known more as a
defensive player and facilitator for the Tar Heels (7-0-1,
3-0-0 ACC), Olofson was
dynamic all over the field on
Saturday.
It took less than four minutes for Olofson to etch his
name into the scoring column. The play started with
junior Colton Storms strong
run down the right side, and
then sophomore Zach Wright
whipped in a pass to Olofson
for the finish.
I think thats just kind of
how the game played out,
said Olofson about his goal. I
was able to find some pockets
going forward. I was able to
capitalize on one of them.
Although it was only
his first goal of the season,
Olofson took his chance calm
and collected.

Im happy for him. Hes

an important player for us,
said fellow senior midfielder
Raby George.
Hes a hard worker; hes
very disciplined and a ball
winner. (Hes) very calm and
composed on the ball and
helps us control the game.
And thats exactly what
Olofson did against Duke.
Along with his goal, he controlled the ball and had multiple defensive stops, including a big tackle in the waning
minutes of the game.
With about two minutes
left in the match, one of
Dukes players pushed the
ball toward the UNC box
and threatened to score. But
Olofson slid in and knocked
the ball upfield.
Alex is going to play to win
every game, Coach Carlos
Somoano said.

If its offensive, hell be

there. If its defensive, hell
be there. If its passing, hell
be there.
Somoano said he trusts
Olofson, and he said he
believes his experience is key
for the team moving forward
this season, especially in
ACC play.
North Carolina is a young
team, especially on the offensive end. Olofson appeared
in 59 matches during his first
three years at UNC, bringing
a lot of needed experience to
the Tar Heels.
The main focus for the
team right now is the next
game, and both Olofson and
Somoano emphasized the
idea that the team cant look
too far ahead.
I feel really good right
now. I think were clicking,
and our chemistry is good,

DTH/KATIE WILLIAMS

Olofson said. Obviously we

have a few things to improve
on, but I feel really good.
He said he was happy with
both his goal and the result
but was ready to move on

with the season.

This is a team sport, and
its a team effort, he said. I
just want us to score.

North Carolina eld hockey captures fth-straight win Sunday

FIELD HOCKEY

NORTH CAROLINA
APPALACHIAN STATE

By Kayleigh Payne
Staff Writer

Coming off of three-straight

shutouts at home, the No. 3 North
Carolina field hockey team had confidence going into Sundays match
against Appalachian State.
And with a 8-2 win over the
Mountaineers, the Tar Heels (9-1,
2-1 ACC) extended their current win
streak to five-straight games.

Sophomore Gab Major, who completed a hat trick on Friday against

Boston College, opened up the scoring by knocking in a goal just over a
minute and a half into the game.
About two minutes later, Major
made a pass to senior Casey Di
Nardo, who took advantage of the
opportunity and put UNC up 2-0.
Then it was first-year Austyn
Cuneos moment. Cuneo hadnt
scored in the Tar Heels first 10 games
of the season. But in the 16th minute,
she broke through and scored North
Carolinas third goal of the game and
the first of her college career
In the following minutes, UNC
scored two more goals, going up 5-0

with over 10 minutes to play in the

first half.
But in the final three minutes of the
half, Appalachian State made a strong
offensive push and scored twice, putting the score at 5-2 at halftime.
When UNC returned to the field
for the second half, the team was
determined to maintain its lead.
Senior Emily Wold scored her
ninth goal of the season and, about
five minutes later, Di Nardo put in
her second goal of the game to push
the lead to 7-2. The Mountaineers
were limited to just two shots in the
second half by UNCs stifling defense.
The Tar Heels scored their final
goal on a penalty corner in the 66th

minute. Junior Caroline Plyler

scored the goal on an assist from
junior Julia Young and redshirt firstyear Halle Frain.

Three numbers that matter

(Im) very proud of Gabby. ...
