and has since evolved into a university-
wide event complete with costumes, alco-
hol, loud music and, more recently, regu-
lations from the Duke administration.
“Over the past few years it has gone
away from being about football,” said
Chris Heltne, director of communica-
tions for student affairs. “We’ve tried to
make it a safer event, but this has led us to
believe what we’ve done hasn’t worked.”
The tailgate’s cancellation has caused
controversy among students because it
had become one of the campus’s most
popular traditions, said Student Body
President Mike Lefevre.
“It’s one of the few truly open social
events on campus” Lefevre said.
“Tailgate and (last day of classes) are
the defining social events at Duke to
many students.”

Revised districting plan

approved by Congress
RHA president opposes the change
by Brooke Hefner
staff writer
A bill proposed to realign
Student Congress seats passed at
Tuesday night’s Student Congress
meeting.
The bill, which was sponsored
by Speaker Deanna Santoro, will
change districts so each member
of Student Congress will represent
about the same number of stu-
dents. Districts will now be divid-
ed into four geographic sections,
along with an at-large district
for freshmen and two districts
reserved for graduate students.
District 1 will include residence
halls north of South Road; district
2 will include the Odum and Ram
Village communities, Baity Hill
and dormitories south of Manning
Drive; and District 3 will include
residence halls between South
Road and Manning Drive. District
4 comprises Greek and off-campus
housing.

there would be more competition
between districts.
But not all students were pleased
with the changes.
Residence Hall Association
President Ryan Collins said he was
concerned about the bill’s represen-
tation of on-campus students.
“I did not see it as practical in
any stance,” he said, of the bill’s
original form.
Collins said he did not agree with
the new districts, adding he did not
feel comfortable with the exten-
sion of the section most know as
middle campus. Collins said he was
also disconcerted with breaking up
residence halls, such as Hardin and
Koury, from their respective com-
munities.
“The way that you increase com-
petition is to get people interested
themselves,” Collins said. “This
arbitrary competition is going to
cause more problems than it is
going to solve.”
Santoro responded to Collins’
critical letter to the editor printed

said. “It makes it easier for candi-

that’s the way we had to do it.
“Hogan came to one of our meet-
ings and said he wanted us to move
away from north, south, mid-cam-
pus. It ostracizes south campus.”
Santoro said the goal of Congress
was not to maintain community
districts. She continued, stating the
interests of the RHA did not align
with the interests of Congress in
this case.
Student Congress member A.J.
Horowitz proposed the possibility
of creating districts based on class.
The amendment was not added, but
there was discussion of it being pro-
posed in committee at a later time.

honored by ACLU Pit Puppies

Kleinschmidt, Dear receive Finlator overwhelming,” Kleinschmidt said.

by Katherine Burton
staff writer
When the mayor of Chapel Hill
received an honor for his work for
human rights, his first reaction was
to talk the awarder out of it.
“It was overwhelming and
extremely humbling,” Mayor Mark
Kleinschmidt said. “I can come
up with a dozen other people who
deserve it more than me.”
The Wake County Chapter
of the American Civil Liberties
Union gave Kleinschmidt and
Stephen Dear, executive direc-
tor of People of Faith Against the
Death Penalty, the Finlator Award
last Thursday.
The award is given to those who
have shown an exemplary record of
advocacy for civil rights.
Kleinschmidt served as the pres-
ident of the North Carolina ACLU
from 2008-09.
The news came as a surprise to
Kleinschmidt, who said he doesn’t
feel that he matches up to previous
recipients of the award.
N.C. Sen. Ellie Kinnaird,
D-Orange, won the same award in
2009.
Kleinschmidt said he admires
her for her work with state social
services.
“It’s hard for me in my mind to
compare what I’ve done in my life
to anything they’ve done,” he said.
“I’ve counted any of them as per-
sonal heroes of mine.”
Though Kleinschmidt is well
known for his work with the lesbi-
an, gay, bisexual and transgendered
community, he received the award
primarily for his efforts against the
death penalty.
Josh McIntyre, historian for
the Wake County ACLU, said
Kleinschmidt and Dear were cho-
sen because of their work against
cruel and unusual punishment.
“Some of the motivation is that
(Kleinschmidt) is a younger person
and so has a considerable amount
of struggle and advocacy work in
front of him,” McIntyre said.
“I think it helps to inspire oth-
ers that are younger to see that
he’s already making a change in
the world.”
Kleinschmidt has focused the
majority of his career as a lawyer
on death penalty work.
“The injustices that exist in the
application of the death penalty are
“We get a little further everyday.”
Dear said he admires
Kleinschmidt for his extensive
work with the Fair Trial Initiative,
which aims to recruit lawyers to
work for indigent defendants fac-
ing the death penalty.
“When Mark trains lawyers and
defends people on death row in
capital cases, he’s working to not
only help marginalized people but
helping to ensure that all of our
rights are respected,” Dear said.
Kleinschmidt joined the initia-
tive after spending six years at the
Center for Death Penalty Litigation,
a non-profit legal firm that shares
the same mission.
He said he became involved
because he believes strong lawyers
and advocates are needed in the
justice system.
“I wish we had a lot more Mark
Kleinschmidts in North Carolina,”
Dear said.
“Chapel Hill should be very
proud of its mayor for his willing-
ness to use his skills to defend not
just the people on death row but
to ensure that everybody has their
constitutional rights represented.”

Men’s soccer readies for ACC Tournament

UNC at full strength for N.C. State
by Megan Walsh
Assistant Sports Editor
As the North Carolina men’s soc-
cer team celebrated making history
as the program’s first team to earn a
regular season ACC title last Friday,
a goal stayed in each and every one
of the players’ minds: winning the
ACC Tournament.
“Since we won (the regular sea-
son), everyone is expecting us to win
the tournament, but that’s not really
how it is,” sophomore Enzo Martinez
said. “We don’t expect anything, but
we will work for a win.”
UNC will face No. 7-seed N.C.
State today at 5:30 p.m. in the Tar
Heels’ first step to the title as the
No. 1 seed. But this game is more
than just the next step to achieving
their goal — it’s personal.
The Wolfpack dropped UNC
in penalty kicks 4-1 in the quar-
ter finals of last year ’s ACC
Tournament.
“State’s a little bit harder to
predict as far as they get ramped
up for our game,” goalie Scott
Goodwin said. “They’re kind of all
over the place — they’re definitely
more unpredictable. I’m looking
forward to playing them. I think it’s
going to be a good game. Especially
get a little bit of rematch from last
year, too.”
This year’s Wolfpack took an
extremely physical 6-3 victory
against a last-seeded Virginia Tech
squad Tuesday to earn a spot in
tonight’s game. Six different N.C.
State players registered goals in the
win against a Hokie team playing
both with two different goalies and
a man-down after an ejection.
N.C. State’s versatility is some-
thing North Carolina hasn’t exactly
seen from the Wolfpack this season.
UNC notched a 1-0 win against
N.C. State in its ACC opener in
early September.
But even in UNC’s win, N.C.
State was relentless, pushing for a
goal in a late surge that kept pos-
session moving toward Goodwin
in goal. Despite finishing eighth
in the ACC at 1-5-2, the Wolfpack
earned two double-overtime ties
against Duke and Wake Forest.
“N.C. State now is a different
team than they were in the begin-
ning of the year,” UNC coach Elmar
Bolowich said. “They use differ-
ent personnel. There are several
players on their squad that have
stepped up.”
The recently named ACC Coach
of the Year will combat the change
with an expanded rotation of play-
ers of both new standouts and old
standbys to keep game tempo up
and counter the potential of play-
ing three games in five days.
After a host of injuries put
the Tar Heels at a disadvantage
throughout the season, UNC will
return to full force tonight with the
comeback of midfielder Stephen
McCarthy, who has missed the last
month with a broken jaw.
“Right now we are looking at a
full contingency,” Bolowich said.
“To have Stephen and Michael
(Farfan) back you’re talking about
senior midfielders, that makes a
big difference, and the guys that
played in their absence did an out-
standing job.”

Athletic director says investigation slowing

by Jack Partain
staff writer
As the investigation into UNC’s
football team begins to calm, ath-
letic director Dick Baddour said
he has a bit more free time on his
hands.
“A few weeks ago, I was doing lit-
tle else. I told my wife I didn’t know
what normal was anymore, I was
completely consumed,” Baddour
told a crowd of freshmen Tuesday
in Graham Memorial as part of the
First Year Fellows program.
He went on to explain the four
guiding principles of the athletics
department: academic success,
integrity, competition and overall
experience of student athletes.
“Obviously in the last three
months we’ve hit some stumbling
blocks, but we still embody all of
these qualities in everything we
do,” Baddour said of the depart-
ment’s core beliefs.
In the hour-long talk, Baddour
shed a positive light in the wake
of an investigation that rocked the
athletics department, praising the
football team for its resiliency in
tough times.
“I’m telling you folks, you are
watching an amazing team,” he
said. “There are very few teams
that could handle this type of situ-
ation. It is truly remarkable.”
He also stressed that the indis-
cretions of a few individuals should
not reflect negatively on the entire
department.
“I don’t think our academic
success is in question,” he said. “I
don’t think the statistics speak to
that, nor do I believe the character
of our 800 student athletes are in
question.
“I certainly cannot run from the
indiscretions that we’ve had, but I
think we’ve responded and haven’t
hidden a thing.”
Hector Pureco said he was
excited to hear about the situ-
ation directly from the man in
charge.
“With all the controversy, it’s
interesting to get a firsthand
account of it,” Pureco said. “I was
surprised to see how much it has
impacted his personal life.”
Matt Steyl said he was impressed
with Baddour’s candid nature in
the talk.
“We’re not authorities or any-
thing but I think he did a really
good job of answering questions
fairly and telling us all he could,”
he said.
After he spoke, Baddour
fielded questions from students,
with most non-football inquiries
focused on the upcoming basket-
ball season.
When asked what he thought
about the team, Baddour respond-
ed, “I’m excited, mainly because
Roy (Williams) is excited.”
Baddour then turned the ques-
tions to the students, asking them
what they enjoyed about UNC ath-
letics.
When a student responded
that he enjoys UNC soccer games,
Baddour asked if the student
had heard news about a recent
controversy involving Florida
State University’s women’s soccer
team.
“It’s gotten national attention,
and for once, we’re not involved,”
Baddour said.

CR’s Berlin Wall display
stolen, culprit unknown
by Alexa Burrell
staff writer
Unlike the original Berlin Wall,
which fell to great public spectacle
in 1989, a replica made by UNC
College Republicans quietly disap-
peared Tuesday morning on the 21st
anniversary of the wall’s fall.
The group planned to tear down
the mock wall as part of the Young
America’s Foundation Freedom
Week and has reported the theft to
campus police.
The cardboard and wood struc-
ture, which cost $60 to make, stood
6 feet tall and 6 feet wide and was
placed in Ram’s Head Plaza at 8
p.m. Monday.
“That’s definitely a day our ide-
als as a nation overcame the Soviet
Empire,” said Anthony Dent, chair-
man of the College Republicans.
“That’s the day we won the Cold
War and it’s one of our great vic-
tories and legacies as a nation in

Religious about going green
TA preaches church sustainability
by Aaron Moore
staff writer
With community gardens, cove-
nants to reduce emissions and new
programs to promote local foods,
local churches are hopping on the
bandwagon and going green.
David McDuffie, a teaching
assistant in the religious studies
department, talked to a group of
students and professors Tuesday in
Hanes Hall about some of the ways
Christians are “greening religion.”
“There is a lot of desire to do
things that are going to be healthy
for the environment,” he said.
McDuffie contrasted this move-
ment with a passage from Genesis
1:28 instructing mankind to “fill
the earth and subdue it. Rule over
the fish of the sea and the birds of
the air and over every living crea-
ture that moves on the ground.”
He said previous generations
have used this passage to justify
abuse or neglect of the environ-
ment during industrial pursuits,
but that many modern Christians
are turning away from that view.
He specifically mentioned
how The Chapel of the Cross on
Franklin Street recently celebrated
contributing to world order.”
But sometime between 6:30
a.m. and 9 a.m. Tuesday, the wall
went missing.
“That’s just kind of sad,” Dent
said. “After a while, you kind of get
used to putting up with that kind of
behavior, but the Berlin Wall falling
should be one of the most apolitical
events in world history.”
As of Tuesday night, there were
no leads as to the wall’s location.
“I have no idea who would have
taken it,” said Marc Seelinger, exec-
utive vice-chairman of the College
Republicans. “No one has said any-
thing to me, and I have not been
able to find anything that would
indicate that a particular group
has done this.”
There was a ceremony planned
for tearing down the wall Tuesday
night, complete with a sledgeham-
mer and quotes from former presi-
dent Ronald Reagan’s famous “Tear
Skimming Away
its second-annual “creation cycle,”
when the church holds events and
sermons geared toward sustain-
ability.
This year the congregation
blessed a chicken and a full-grown
horse named John in front of the
altar before leading them out of the
sanctuary.
The blessings were intended to
show the congregation that ani-
mals deserve treatment equal to
humans, McDuffie said.
Religious studies professor
Zlatko Plese said he visited a
church in Rome that was having
pet sermons as far back as 1999.
“I was sitting in church next to a
boa constrictor,” he said.
McDuffie said some churches
also participate in “carbon fasts,”
where the congregation makes a
pact to avoid driving and produc-
ing carbon emissions for 40 days
during the season of Lent.
“The potential is as yet unreal-
ized but still very much alive,” he
said.
Despite the movement’s recent
momentum, McDuffie said there
is still some tension among more
conser vative Christians who

Contact the University Editor WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT)—
at udesk@unc.edu. An award-winning whistle-blow-
er at U.S. Penitentiary Atwater
helped expose pervasive safety
problems that endangered pris-
on inmates nationwide, a federal
investigation reveals.
Prompted by the complaints
of Leroy Smith Jr., former safety
manager at the Atwater prison,
investigators say they uncovered
“serious misconduct” that includ-
ed “carelessness or indifference” to
the safety of inmates recycling elec-
tronics in multiple federal prisons.
In a sweeping report that was
four years in the making, the
Justice Department’s Office of
Inspector General pinpointed
“numerous violations of health,
safety and environmental laws,
regulations and (Bureau of
Prisons) policies.”

out in a 1,433-page report and

“Some conservatives consider
environmentalism a Trojan horse,”
he said.
“Conservatives want to avoid
the baggage of environmentalism
as part of a liberal agenda.”
But it’s a problem that religious
studies professor Randall Styers
and others said Christians are going
to have to work through to support
sustainability in the future.
“I can say this much, it’s going
to have to play a major role in the
future of Christian thought,” Styers
said.

China expected to finish
the world’s largest census
BEIJING (MCT) — China on
Wednesday is completing the
world’s largest census, one so big
that it has required 6 million cen-
sus takers — more than the entire
population of many countries.
This is the sixth time that China
is conducting a nationwide cen-
sus, the first since 2000, and one
with a few new wrinkles.
In an effort to tally China’s
staggering migrant population,
estimated at more than 200 mil-
lion, census takers are seeking
to count people where they live,
rather than at the homes where
they have their “hukous,” or resi-
dency permits. Until a decade
“We also found numerous
instances of staff misconduct and
performance failures,” investigators
noted.
“These included actions that
endangered staff and inmates:
dishonesty, dereliction of duty, and
theft, among others.”
In one instance, a prison staffer
disabled a fire alarm system to
prevent it from sounding because
of airborne dust in a room where
prisoners were breaking apart
computer monitors.
Criminal prosecutions of
Bureau of Prisons staffers in Ohio
and New Jersey were consid-
ered but ultimately not pursued
“because of various evidentiary,
legal, and strategic concerns,”
investigators said.
A former associate warden at
Atwater, Samuel Randolph, would
face disciplinary actions if he
hadn’t retired in 2006, investiga-
tors added.
The overall recycling program
was lauded for safety improve-
ments in recent years, with new
managers and policies in place.

N&W
ago, people who had moved to
big cities without permits could
be arrested and deported.
Census takers have also offered
stronger assurances than in the
past that the information they
collect will remain confidential.
Issues of family planning, taxes,
land ownership and residency
permits are all, at least in theory,
kept separate from the census.
“This is only about statistics,
but people are worried that they
could get fined for having an extra
child and they’ll avoid the cen-
sus,” said Duan Chengrong, head
of the population department at
Renmin University.
700 suspected
pirates detained
UNITED NATIONS (MCT)
— Worldwide measures to fight
piracy on the high seas resulted
in the detention of more than
700 suspected and convicted
people in 12 countries, some of
which have realized that pros-
ecuting pirates can be a burden,
a U.N. official said Tuesday.
Somalia is detaining more
than half of the 700 pirates.
Other countries having pirates
in their legal systems include
the Seychelles and Kenya.
Mauritius, Tanzania and the
Maldives were ready to pros-
ecute their detainees.
In the United States, jury
selection was to begin Tuesday
in Virginia in the trial of five
Somali piracy suspects.
Yuri Fedotov, the executive
director for the U.N. Office on
Drugs and Crime, told the U.N.
Security Council during a debate
that his office provided legal
assistance to some countries to
prosecute arrested pirates.

Testing
diversity
by nixing
race
T
hree years ago, the NAACP
buried the N-word. The
word isn’t as forgotten as
Middle English, but it did seem
to alleviate some racial tension.
Yet I don’t think we should focus
our efforts on a genocide of racial
epithets.
What I think this country is
ready for is not giving attention
to racial rhetoric as we seem to
do, ripping people for the slight-
est racial faux pas, but rather a
scenario without the concept of
race (represented as skin color as
it often is) altogether.
Yes, this subject is touchy.
Yes, I’m a hodgepodge of eight
European groups. But dialogue
goes two ways. You can always
flood the newspaper with letters.
America has taken a special
focus on Glenn Beck-esque water-
works rhetoric and little things,
like single words and technical ter-
minology (i.e., “illegal immigrant”).
But why are we spending time on
this? Does this make progress on
racial issues? Is it what we’re down
to focusing on in race relations?
It’s tough to concretely say
where we are on race relations.
But something is wrong when the
NAACP says it serves all races, yet
it, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson
use skin color as a litmus test for
whether to rush to cases like those
of Crystal Mangum — accuser
in the Duke lacrosse case — and,
as Jackson’s Rainbow/PUSH
Coalition did, offer full tuition
regardless of whether the accusa-
tions were false.
So, after the recent survey on
the state of diversity on campus,
and thinking along the lines of
the scientific method, I propose a
control experiment: For a period
of a year or two, race doesn’t
exist. What if we focused our
efforts on inequalities and pover-
ty truly regardless of race? What
if we saw identifying the color of
our skin just as relevant and silly
to do on a survey/application as
identifying our hair color?
Could we acknowledge heri-
tage? Sure. Our backgrounds
shape us, though they’re not as dif-
ferent as you might think. My Irish
great-grandmother was an inden-
tured servant. Irish, Italians and
others were treated like scum for
generations in America. All races
have had struggles, some more
recently than others. Skin color
and heritage aren’t the same.
And it is not easy to engage
in race relations when your own
race is constantly told it’s the
problem, that you’re holding back
minorities. There is a shame put
on whites like I can only imagine
post-World War II German gen-
erations must feel.
Finally, it’s difficult to under-
stand why we still need affirma-
tive action and immigration
leniency when families of all races
— from Latin America to Africa
to the Middle East to Asia — can
immigrate legally, start with noth-
ing, work their asses off and be
able to send their kids to college.
Looking back, the only time
I’ve felt like I’ve been in a truly
interactive, (racially) diverse set-
ting on campus is with my club
football team. Short of having a
penguin play fullback, we’ve had
every continent represented over
the past couple years. No one
cares or tries to applaud the diver-
sity. No one is trying to discuss
our racial dynamic or representa-
tion. The team just is. We coexist.
And I wonder if we pulled back
and quit focusing so much on skin
color, diversity and racial equality,
we could at least see how far we’ve
come and better identify exactly
where we need to go.

a re-evaluation of the effective-
ness of our own smoking poli-
cies at UNC.
UNC has never issued a
citation for smoking too close
to a building.
While some behavior has
been altered, blatant lack of
enforcement leads us to ques-
tion the strictness of the policy
as written.
In 2007 the North Carolina
General Assembly gave UNC-
system schools the power to
regulate smoking up to 100
feet from university buildings.
In 2008, UNC-Chapel Hill
voluntarily implemented the
most restrictive smoking policy
HIV myths: being empowe(red)
O
n a routine trip to Wal-
Mart, I found myself
on an aisle with a rath-
er loud woman on a cellphone.
For those of us who frequent
Wal-Mart, this is no surprise.
She was discussing the recent
actions of one of her friends
when she screeched, “She
needs to stop making out with
guys at the club. She gonna
catch AIDS or something.”
I put down my moderately
priced soap. This comment
really made me think about
HIV stigmas and myths. With
this in mind, I felt it would be
a good idea to do some HIV
myth-busting.
Many people believe that
HIV and AIDS are the same
thing. Contrary to the belief
of the woman in Wal-Mart,
this is not the truth. Human
Immunodeficieny Virus, or
HIV, is a virus and Acquired
Immune Deficiency Syndrome
(AIDS) is the final and most
severe stage of HIV infection,
diagnosed by a collection of ill-
ness and/or a certain CD4+T
cell count. These are the cells
that serve as the reservoir
for HIV. Knowing the differ-
ence between the two is a very
important part of understand-
ing both.
Many worry that HIV can
be spread through tears, sweat,
saliva, urine or casual contact.
The reality is that HIV is trans-
mitted through infected blood,
semen, vaginal fluids and breast
milk. HIV can also be passed
from mother to baby during
pregnancy, birth or breastfeed-
ing. The most common ways
for HIV to be transmitted are
through unprotected sexual

allowed under the new law by
banning smoking within 100
feet of university buildings —
including residence halls.
Other schools in the sys-
tem chose to implement less
restrictive policies.
East Carolina only banned
smoking with 25 feet of uni-
versity buildings. Fayetteville
State University’s policy does
not mention a smoke-free buf-
fer around buildings at all.
Under Chapel Hill’s policy,
smokers have very few places
where they are allowed to
smoke.
You can often spot them
huddled around the flag pole
— a place where smoking is
allowed. But you can almost as
often spot them pretty much
anywhere on campus.

contact and/or sharing needles
with an HIV-positive person.
A common misconception
that people use to try to escape
from the risk of sexual contact
is “I’m safe because I’m in a
monogamous relationship.”
If you and your partner were
not tested for HIV, there is a
risk that you can contract HIV
from your relationship.
And even if you were tested, if
you do not spend 24 hours a day
together there is no way to know
if both partners are being faith-
ful. Love is not a proven method
to stop HIV transmission.
Ev e n i f b o t h y o u a n d
your partner have HIV, it is
still not safe to have unpro-
tected sex with one another.
It is possible for one person
with HIV to transmit a differ-
ent strain of HIV to another
person with HIV, creating a
superinfection. Sexual prac-
tices, which transmit HIV, are
also shrouded in myth.
HIV experts often hear that
HIV can not be spread or con-
tracted through oral sex. If the
person performing oral sex
has a cut or abrasion in their
mouth and comes in contact
with HIV-infected bodily flu-
ids, they can become infected
with the virus just as they could

The University made a
strong statement about smok-
ing when it adopted the most
restrictive policy possible, but
over the last two years that
message has become muddled
by a lack of enforcement.
UNC cares about smok-
ing enough to have a restric-
tive policy, but not enough to
enforce it.
We are not advocating that
DPS start enforcing the smok-
ing policy with an iron fist. And
clearly, the restrictions have
somewhat altered smokers’
behavior.
However, if everything is
running smoothly with zero
enforcement of blatant rule
breaking, then a reevaluation
of the policy may be needed to
send a consistent message.
having unprotected vaginal or
anal sex. Using a dental dam or
condom during oral sex greatly
diminishes this risk.
When myth-busting HIV,
the role of sexual orientation
cannot be ignored. A persist-
ing misconception from when
the infection was first gaining
notoriety is that heterosexu-
als do not get HIV — but the
majority of HIV-positive per-
sons worldwide are heterosex-
ual. Risk is not about labels;
rather, it’s about behavior. Any
person who has unprotected
sex with someone whose HIV
status is not definitely known
is at risk for HIV.
Currently, there are 1.1 mil-
lion Americans who live with
HIV/AIDS, and more than 36
million people worldwide who
live with HIV/AIDS.
It is important to know your
status. That’s why it is impor-
tant to get tested, as you may
be positive and have no symp-
toms. You can’t tell by appear-
ance if you or someone else has
HIV.
Arguably the largest myth of
all is that being diagnosed with
HIV/AIDS means that you will
die from the infection. People
are living with HIV/AIDS lon-
ger today than ever before.
Medications, treatment pro-
grams and a better understand-
ing of HIV and AIDS allow those
who are infected to live healthy
and productive lives.
We know more about HIV
now than ever, giving us more
weapons to fight against this
global threat. Ignorance about
HIV is almost as dangerous as
the infection. Consider yourself
empowe(red).

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Hinson Neville is calling
things as he sees them
TO THE EDITOR:
In response to David
Alexandre’s letter “‘Freshman
Perspective’ columnist is out of
touch,” (Nov. 8) I must disagree.
I feel that he entirely missed the
point of all of Hinson Neville’s
columns, which is clearly to give
an account of how things appear
your first semester on campus.
Alexandre continuously states
that if Neville did the “research”
the opinions and ideas expressed
in his articles would be more
sound and accurate; however,
researching the opinion misses
the chance for the column to be an
insight into what is seen and per-
ceived during a first-year student’s
transition to Carolina. Almost
anyone who is new to the college
experience will undoubtedly form
judgements about groups, which
after time will be corrected.
The truth is, during your first
semester, it does look like Greek
students are paying for their
friends, people form opinions
about us southerners from our
slow southern drawl and tea
drinking habits, and the idea of
a military police force marching
down Franklin, not to mention
the giant bus, to clear the street
after Halloween (no matter how
necessary it is) does seem a little
over the top.
Alexandre should think back
to his freshman year and think
about some of the incorrect
perceptions he made that have
been corrected through time
and experience here at UNC, and
realize that the column offers
exactly what is promised, a small
glimpse at life through the eyes
of a first-year college student.

The DTH’s decision to sue
the University is asinine
TO THE EDITOR:
While the DTH may have sepa-
rated itself financially in 1993, the
notion that the DTH is not behold-
en to the University is completely
bogus. The writers and staffers are
largely students of the University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
and they represent the University
just as any other student would.
Furthermore, the DTH website
states that part of their mission
is to “represent the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill as
its flagship news organization.”
In my book, when your students
represent the University, the
website proclaims your organi-
zation represents the University,
and a great deal of your readers
are UNC students, then you are
beholden to the University.
The notion that the law-
suit is legitimate because the
DTH is acting along with the
(Raleigh) News & Observer is
asinine. If the editorial board of
the (Raleigh) News & Observer
decided to jump off a bridge,
would the DTH do it too? Evan
Rose has it right. The lawsuit
against the University is about
more than football. In my opin-
ion, it is driven by personal egos
and the ambition of the edito-
rial board to prove the DTH —
to borrow from Mr. Rose — is in
fact a “big boy” newspaper.

Job-seeking students need
more than just resumes
TO THE EDITOR:
Perhaps you’ve heard about
LinkedIn, the professional social
network, but you’re not sure
exactly what it is.
For students who are accus-
tomed to Facebook, LinkedIn
can feel like a foreign land — a bit
uncomfortable and a bit intimi-
dating. If you are a student or
recent grad, setting up a profes-
sional profile and becoming active
on LinkedIn are absolute musts.
LinkedIn profiles rank very
highly in search results (almost
always on the first page), so hav-
ing a LinkedIn profile is like a
business having a listing in the
yellow pages: it shows that you
are proactively taking part in
the professional community.
Just as you build your profes-
sional visibility by showing up at
a company information session,
industry association conference
or networking event, you need to
“show up” online as well.
In today’s ultra-competitive
job market, a good resume is not
the only tool required to land a
position. Online portfolios,
blogs, Twitter feeds and other
virtual tools are helping people
present their credentials in new
ways. Smart students know this
and manage the online repre-
sentations of their credentials
as carefully as they craft their
resumes and cover letters.
In the end, building a profes-
sional presence and growing your
professional network on LinkedIn
are great ways to declare to the
world that you are ready to con-
tribute and you are eager to make
your mark on the world — the
online world and the real one.
