Duke extends UNC faculty better offer

Professors
say money,
politics
helps choice
to leave
By Leah Moore
Senior Writer

In the past two years, three

prominent staff members left
UNC for Duke.
In the 2015-16 school
year, at least 11 faculty mem-
bers left UNC and five offers
from Duke University were
made to faculty, Executive
Vice Provost Ron Strauss
said.
Jeremy Petranka, a profes-
sor of economics at Duke and
a former professor at UNC,
said he left for Duke because
the offer Duke made him was
too good to pass up.
There was no part of me
that was looking to leave
UNC, he said. I had taught
a class at Duke before and
the school decided they
wanted me to come over.
They were able to put togeth-
er a package that there was
no reasonable way I could
turn it down. DTH/REBECCA LAWSON
Petranka said private Omid Safi, a former UNC professor, is now the director of the Islamic Studies at Duke. One of the reasons he left was to have more freedom to give his political opinion.

After school closes, high schoolers take action

Local students raised
money for nonprofits on
Day Without a Woman.
By Carrie Polen
Staff Writer
As part of the A Day Without a
Woman protest, local high school stu-
dents organized fundraisers around
Chapel Hill Wednesday to benefit
Planned Parenthood, HomeStart,
the Compass Center and the Orange
County Rape Crisis Center.
Students from East Chapel Hill
High School and Chapel Hill High
School set up bake sale booths
outside of the Chapel Hill Public
Library, the Varsity Theater on
East Franklin Street and Rumors
Boutique on North Graham Street.
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools announced that classes
would be canceled because about
400 of the total 2,000 employees
planned to participate in the strike.
East Chapel Hill High School
senior Leah Steiner and a group of
about 100 other Chapel Hill stu-
dents had plans for the day even
before school was closed.
The original idea was to get
a bunch of girls together to skip
school for Womens Day to work for
something that would benefit wom-
ens organizations, Steiner said, So
we were happy to hear that classes
were canceled.
Steiner said students prepared for
the fundraisers by making announce-
ments at school, hanging posters
around the community and making
baked goods to sell at their booths.
I made a lot of calls around town
looking for businesses who would
let us set up outside their stores,
Steiner said. The three businesses
we got were excited to have us come
out, but a lot of others said no.
Pushback against Womens Day
was also evident. Some parents said
they were frustrated by the school

students also made a statement

We wear red to show solidarity for

She also said supporters of

businesses and businesses owned
by women or minorities.
Jillian Daly, an East Chapel Hill
senior who represented the group
outside the Varsity, said she was
pleased by the age range of students
who wanted to be involved in the
fundraising project.
We have girls out here in every
grade who wanted to be a part of it.

If passed, the bill would
allow liquor tastings and
support distilleries.
By Olivia Slagle
Senior Writer
An N.C. Senate bill hopes to
bring mimosas to the Sunday table
and would also allow distilleries
to obtain special-event permits to
give free liquor tastings at events.
Senate Bill 155, also called the
Brunch Bill, was introduced
by N.C. Senators Rick Gunn,
R-Alamance, Kathy Harrington,
R-Gaston and Dan Blue, D-Wake.
Gunn said the bills primary pur-
pose is to support craft distilleries.
We have two industries that
are booming in the state of North
Carolina. One of them is the dis-
tillery, the craft beer and the wine
industry, and the second industry
that is booming is travel and tour-
ism, Gunn said. This is a great
way to help them grow their busi-
ness, thus creating jobs and help-
ing the whole economy.
The North Carolina Restaurant
& Lodging Association released a
statement in support of the bill,
which would allow restaurants to
serve alcohol Sundays before noon.
This brunch bill will allow our
North Carolina restaurants and
hotels to meet their guests needs,

me for my fire Twitter pres-

unlikely than the first option.
I guess it makes sense,
seeing as Im planted on a
desk that covers arts and
entertainment, that music has
always been firmly rooted in
my life. My middle name is
Alanis, after the very angry

Pies thrown at professors for Pi Day

Event raised money
for computer science
clubs on campus
By Gloria Ge
Staff Writer

The Department of Computer Science

celebrated Pi Day, March 14, early by giving
students the opportunity to throw pies at their
professors.
The idea came from Alden Sharpe, the
alumni relations coordinator for the depart-
ment. The purpose of the event was to
raise money for the 17 student clubs in the
department.
She wanted to come up with an idea
to raise money for student clubs, but also
to give students and faculties the chance
to kind of hang out together and have fun
together, said Gina Rozier, external rela-
tions manager for the computer science
department.
Rozier said 13 out of the 35 faculty mem-
bers in the department said they would par-
ticipate.
The first thing I did was go to the profes-
sors and say, Would you guys be willing to
get pie thrown at you? and surprisingly more
than a third of the department professors said
yes, Rozier said.
Students could pay $10 to throw a pie at
any of the faculty other than department
chairperson Kevin Jeffay. DTH/MOLLY SPRECHER

Artist in residence engages students in social justice

Carrie Mae Weems will be
helping create exhibits
and curate performances.
By Jacob Hancock
Staff Writer
Carolina Performing Arts has invit-
ed Carrie Mae Weems to be an artist
in residence for the next few years.
Weems is well-known for her
photography focusing on social
issues within the African-American
community and spoke at a town hall
Wednesday in the Campus Y.
I want to activate the community
to sort of ask themselves a set of
serious questions about the role of
art in society and what it means to
be a democratic society and a pro-
gressive society, Weems said. Thats
the work.
Aaron Shackelford, director of
engagement at Carolina Performing
Arts, said he hopes having Weems
on campus will help generate impor-
tant discussions about issues on
campus and abroad.
We knew Carries work and we
were already admirers, Shackelford
said. At Carolina Performing Arts,
we really believe in the impact and
power of artists to create and drive
those conversations. The oppor-
tunity to bring her to campus and
facilitate those conversations was
one we wanted to explore.
Jina Valentine, an assistant pro-
fessor in the art department, is help-
ing organize the artist residency.
Carrie will be working across
departments to work with us to
curate performances, symposiums,
exhibitions, Valentine said, But
shes also very interested in how to
involve students from other classes
on campus in conversations on
power and social justice.
Weems said a big part of her goal
is to generate civic activism across
the entire campus.
I love when people think about
things, Weems said. Art and social
engagement doesnt have to be this
sort of boring, snobby, left-wingy,
dull, rah, rah, chant, chant wave
the banners. It can be comedy, it can
be poetry, it can be silence, it can be
dance and choreography.
Shackelford said the organization
will meet to make a specific plan for
Weems stay going forward.
Weems said she is happy to have
the opportunity to work with the
UNC community.
Im very excited to be here on this
historic campus in this part of the
country, Weems said. Its absolutely
beautiful here and they have some
extraordinary resources it is so
important to the rest of the country, so
to be here and have access to resourc-
es, I couldnt be more thrilled. Im
really happy to be working with the
performing arts center, but also with
the larger community here at UNC to
figure out inventive and dynamic ways
to really activate the entire campus.
During the town hall, Weems
asked students to think deeply about
career decisions they are making.

The decision responds to U.S.
policies on visa-free travel.
By Becca Heilman
Staff Writer
Visa-free travel for U.S. citizens traveling
in the European Union could be subject to
change after the European Parliament passed
a new measure Thursday.
A press release by the European Parliament
said the United States and four other countries
were not meeting E.U. obligations with regard
to reciprocity of visa-free travel.
Citizens of Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Poland and Romania still cannot enter U.S.
territory without a visa, while U.S. citizens
can travel to all E.U. countries visa-free, the
press release said.
John Pickles, a professor of international
studies at UNC, said in an email that this is
largely in symbolic retaliation for the fact that
visa requirements for E.U. citizens coming to
the U.S. have been tightened in recent weeks.
The vote is probably symbolic, with uncer-
tainty as to whether the E.U. Commission will
implement policy, he said. Several countries
require E.U. citizens to have visas to enter, and
the issue is one of reciprocity Why should
the E.U. allow visa-free access, if specific coun-
tries like the U.S. do not reciprocate?
The proposal could affect students study-
ing abroad who wish to travel to differ-
ent countries within the E.U. but Bob
Miles, associate dean for Study Abroad and
International Exchanges at UNC, said many
commentators think it extremely unlikely that
there would be any change in the near future.
If youre going to transform the relation-
ship between the European Union and the
United States by removing the current visa
waiver, youre going to need to have in place a
whole series of procedures of bureaucracy to
allow people to apply for and be issued with a
visa, he said.
Nell Ovitt, a junior currently studying
abroad in Ireland, said many students who
study abroad in Europe travel extensively.
I would imagine that for anyone who was
looking at a school in Europe, that might
affect them visiting those countries and learn-
ing about those countries, she said.
Junior Aurora Fulp, who is currently study-
ing abroad in Spain, said the countries men-
tioned in the resolution appeal to students, as
they are often cheaper places to travel.
After her program in Spain ends, Fulp said
she has considered traveling to Romania.
I would be concerned about if I can go or
not, especially because I havent bought tick-
ets or planned anything yet, because June still
seems pretty far away for me, she said.
Fulp said she would be upset if she had
already planned and paid for travel, lodging
and tickets before discovering she needed to
fill out additional paperwork for a visa.
It wasnt something I could do from
Europe, so I would have to either just accept
that I had lost all that money or I would have
to fly back to the United States and deal with
all of the visa process, which takes forever and
costs money, she said.
Miles said the study abroad office is follow-
ing the issue closely but does not foresee an
implementation of the measure passed by the
European Parliament.
If our analysis proves to be incorrect, in
the light of whatever new procedures are in
place, we will provide advice to students in
the way that we normally do when there is a
change in visa or immigration policy, he said.

Bob Baranick, who once
worked on iconic Disney
rides like Splash Mountain,
is developing a new park in
North Carolina.
The park, Whirligig
Woods, will be located in
Saxapahaw, about 17 miles
from Chapel Hill. According
to Baranicks website,
Whirligig Woods is a family
amusement park and tree-
house resort.
Baranick said in an email
that the goal is to create a
world where parents and chil-
dren can have fun and make
memories as a family.
We expect to be the pri-
mary location for birthday
parties, group picnics and
other organizations to come
have fun in the woods,
Baranick said. We will also
be strong on education ele-
ments and charity services.
My primary hope is that the
park will inspire a new gen-
eration to dream and build.
He said the reason for
picking this location for the
park is because the property
is an equal distance between
the Triad and the Triangle.
Saxapahaw itself is already
a booming destination. It is a
very rural and environmen-
be a small, charming garden
attraction populated with
low-key rides that will create
an immersive environment
that honors the trees and
natural land.
Carol Wood, the parks art
director, said the parks devel-
opment will be environmen-
tally friendly.
If the architecture needs
to change to honor the land,
thats what happens, she said.
The land dictates it.
Some of the attractions,
especially the kinetic ones,
will capture and be driven by
solar energy, Wood said.
Baranick has 40 years of
experience with themed enter-
tainment design, she said.
This all originated with
Bob, Wood said. Im there to
help him realize his vision.
Whirligig Woods is not
like any other projects he has
been a part of, Baranick said.
I have been very lucky to
work on many grand scale,
cutting edge, mega thrill
attractions around the world,
he said. (Whirligig Woods)
will be an intimate, charm-
ing and whimsical attraction
geared for families very
unique and very special.
The name Whirligig Woods
comes from one of Baranicks
personal heroes, Vollis
Simpson. Simpson, who died
in 2013, was a North Carolina
artist who created whirligig
sculptures from scrap metal

and discarded objects.
(Vollis) put whirligigs
on the map, making them
North Carolinas official folk
art, Baranick said. Because
whirligigs are whimsical and
kinetic, they lend themselves
well for the styling of the park
architecture and attractions.
Rep. Stephen Ross,
R-Alamance, said in an
emailed statement he is excit-
ed about the new park.
The theme park will be a
great addition to the beauty
of the surrounding Haw River
area, he said. I look forward
to its development in the
coming years.
Miranda Cecil, a first-
year student at UNC, said
she thinks the park will be
good for the community and
younger children par-
ticularly those without big
backyards.
It sounds like a really good
family environment and nice
that you can be outside doing
activities in a controlled area,
Cecil said.
Wood said the park will be
small but unique.
Its a jewel, she said.

Q&A with John Bruno on fish deaths

A study done by research-
ers at UNC has shown that
up to 90 percent of predatory
fish in coral reefs around
the Bahamas, United States,
Cuba, Mexico and Belize are
gone due to predatory fish-
ing. The Daily Tar Heels
Neecole Bostick interviewed
John Bruno, a professor
in the UNC Department of
Biology, about the rapid
decrease in fish.
The Daily Tar Heel: Why should
we care about the fish?
John Bruno: For one, large
vertebrate animals are under
enormous pressure from (a)
variety of factors, like fish-
ing and human population
growth. They could go extinct
because they have smaller
population sizes.
Predators are very sensitive
to these factors. They have
not evolved to fight against
these factors, but prey gener-
ally have.
Theres a lot of economic
and environmental factors
affected by this. Coral reefs
play a large part in tourism of
these places. Its a booming
industry, and people pay a lot
of money to see the wildlife in
these ecosystems.
Its an enormous economic
opportunity to restore these
Numbers of studies around the world have
shown the same exact trend of roughly 90
percent of fish being removed.

ecosystems, and will affect
local coastal communities
This is also very reflective
of the entire ocean. Numbers
of studies around the world
have shown the same exact
trend of roughly 90 percent of
fish being removed. There are
very few parts of the ocean
where this hasnt already hap-
pened.
The problems are gener-
ally less severe in wealthier
countries because there is less
pressure to fish intensively
more so in the Florida
Keys than relatively poor
Caribbean islands, like Haiti
or the Dominican Republic.
But other countries have
begun to think about how
to deal with this, like the
Bahamas or Palau, and have
started banning shark fishing.
DTH: Are these reefs protected
by government laws?
JB: No, only 1 percent of the
ocean is in a protective state,
and many of those places are
in paper parks (where there
is no enforcement, but the
law is on the books) Its like
declaring Yellowstone a park,
(but) letting people build
homes and go hunting.
DTH: How would the animals
be protected?
JB: In the U.S., there is
discussion about how the
Endangered Species Act
should be repealed, so that
we no longer list species as
threatened. That would be a
tragedy. The bald eagle, bears

CUAB celebrates National Womens Day

Students were
quizzed on womens
history in the U.S.
Cy Neff
Staff Writer
The Carolina Union
Activities Board gave
away pink T-shirts about
feminism for International
Womens Day in the Pit
Wednesday.
Some of the pink shirts
read, Feminist: (n) someone
who believes in the equality
of the sexes, on the front, and
What does Feminism mean
to you? on the back. Others
said This is what a feminist
looks like.
Students lined up in the
Pit and across the front of
Lenoir Dining Hall for the
event until the 300 shirts
ran out. CUAB also used the
time to advertise the upcom-
ing Jubilee concert featuring
2 Chainz.
Throughout the entire
year weve been making a
huge effort to target every
single different population
that usually isnt represented
on campus in the Carolina
community, and one event
that I decided that we really
should target and empower
is the whole feminist and
empowering womens day,
Sophomore CUAB diversity
chairperson Julian Esain said.
And so March 8 is
International Womens Day
starting in 1909, and we
decided to give some more
education and informational
facts on it.
Those in line had to
answer questions, though
not necessarily correctly,
relating to the history of
feminism and marginal-
ized communities to receive
a shirt. Some questions
included the name of the
woman who integrated
public schools, as well as
the name of the first woman
to fly across the Atlantic
Ocean.
Students said they appre-
ciated the celebration of
International Womens Day,
saying they considered the
day to be an important recog-
nition of womens struggles in
contemporary society, as well
as a way of moving forward.
Womens day is important
to me because I identify as a
woman and also as a feminist,
junior Kaila Eckstein said.
And so I think womens
day is a great way for women
to come together and talk
about the issues that apply
to us and about ways that
we can make long-lasting
social change in order to help
address sexism in our society.
Senior Justin Fieulleteau
said even though he doesnt
identify as a woman, he
still considers International
Womens Day to be an impor-
tant one.
Women represent half
of the worlds population
and its just that they still
even in 2017 they still face
challenges as far as making
as much as men in the work-
place; even in politics people
still didnt want to see a
woman in the White House,
he said.
First-year Florence
Brooks said she thought
International Womens Day
was especially important
in light of recent political
events.
With a lot of the recent
events going on after the
election, I think its more
important than ever to show
that we stand in solidarity,
she said.

10 years ago I was picked
up, one day, from fourth grade
by my grandmother. She made
buttered rice for dinner,
as if thats a real meal that a
9-year-old child would want to
eat. We watched both Wheel
of Fortune AND Jeopardy, an
unprecedented luxury for my
fourth-grade self.
Right after Jeopardy finished,
the house phone rang. My
grandmother, my two brothers
and I froze. We answered and
listened, with bated breath. It
was a girl! I shrieked. I think
I did a victory lap around my
house. One of my brothers cried.
The female-male ratio in my
household was equal, and all
was right in the world.
In a week, my sister will turn
10. On International Womens
Day, I cant help but think
about the world she inhabits,
and the one she will, someday,
inherit. Ten years is a big age
gap. I watched my sister grow
up and, in doing so, relived my
own childhood. My sister is so
smart, so good at the subjects
that little girls are assumed to
fail. I watch her multiply and
divide gleefully will she be
one of four girls in a 25-person
math class, like I was? Will she,
too, feel so uncomfortable, so
alone, in the classroom that she
will gradually decry math as a
foreign language, unavailable to
her as a suitable pursuit?
We watch the movies I loved
as a little girl together. How
did I never notice the infu-
riating passivity of Sleeping
Beauty, or the literal incapaci-
tation of Ariel, only solvable
through her ensnarement of
a mate? I hate Disney, and I
hate myths about female intel-
ligence and I hate any societal
construction that could ever
make my thoughtful, self-pos-
sessed, funny, weird little sister
feel like she is any less deserv-
ing of anything, ever, than her
male counterparts.
Ten years ago, I went to New
York City with my mom. We
ordered custom pillows off of
the hotels pillow-room-service
menu, ate huge amounts of
pasta and saw Wicked. In a
week, Ill fly up to New York
City to meet my mom and sis-
ter. Well see Wicked, and prob-
ably eat huge amounts of pasta.
Who knows, maybe a pillow-
room-service will be involved.
Time is weird. I dont feel,
after all, so incredibly distinct
from that 9-year-old who wan-
dered New York City with her
mom. I still love pasta; I still
know every word to every song
from Wicked; Im still slightly
intimidated by the sheer scale
of New York. I still depend
completely upon my mom for
advice and inspiration. Then,
I didnt have the consideration
of a younger presence, looking
to me for advice.
I consider, now, how my
attitude and my aspirations
will shape her conception
of herself. What kind of
role model will I be for her?
Hopefully, one like my own
mom: smart and self-assured
and empathetic and always,
always there for her. I cant
change the world at large (yet)
that my sister lives in. I can,
though, rely on the repetition
of generations the cyclical
empowerment of women, who,
in turn, empower others to
provide an example like the
one I was gifted with.

EDITORIAL CARTOON By Ashley Griffin, ashleypg@live.unc.edu
The floor is the ceiling
The worst is actually our best, as Fedora and Jordan can attest.
T
he editor-in-chief of
this paper recently
argued that basket-
ball is a UNC religion.
At the most recent
ceremony for our shared
obsession, the halftime
show was highlighted by the
announcement of a brand-
ing relationship between the
Jordan Brand and UNCs
football team. The sight of
UNCs most famous gradu-
ate was enough to electrify
the Dean Dome, but the
energy spiked even higher
when Jordan proclaimed the
ceiling is in fact the roof.
In the ensuing excite-
ment and internet tomfool-
ery there was a significant
amount of conversation
about both Michael Jordan
and Larry Fedora. There was
some gentle feting, but the
dialogue was mostly positive.
Missing from the conver-
sation was what it means
for UNC to center the best
basketball player of all time
and a decent football coach
in our understanding of this
University. When we cel-
ebrate Fedora and Jordan we
are implicitly lauding their
disinterest in using their
platforms for social good.
Larry Fedora has certain-
ly been the most successful
North Carolina football
coach since Mack Brown.
He has won an impressive
number of football games
and has paired that with an
almost complete disinter-
est in using those accom-
plishments to give voice to
any other issues. The job
security that his wins have
allowed could be used to
talk about the dangers of
campus sexual assault, the
exploitation of student-ath-
lete labor or even just the
economic harms of House
Bill 2 that his counterpart
Roy Williams has cautiously

decried. He has not done so.
The only way in which he
has interacted with a politi-
cal space has been negative.
Instead of taking a stand
against the exploitation of
student labor from which
he profits, he hired Tim
Beckman, who was fired for
pressuring students to play
through injuries at Illinois.
When reports of student-
athletes committing sexual
assault ricocheted around
the country, he stayed quiet.
Fedora might not be respon-
sible for addressing every
social ill, but he has a plat-
form that he refuses to use.
If anything, Michael
Jordan has been even more
egregiously silent. His

an owner of an NBA fran-
chise and the first player
billionaire. He has the abil-
ity to spread influence that
even fellow luminaries like
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or
NBA owners like Jeanie
Buss cant imagine.
His response to that
power and responsibility has
been a silence of epic pro-
portions. He has infamously
refused to speak out on
almost any issues of social
importance. This is exempli-
fied by his perhaps apocry-

say that the only responsi-

to the game. This is an easy

Coach Smith lived a life

We should expect the same

Is the guilt of supporting
