PROMISES PUT TO VOTE

Today students have four choices for student body president — all of whom have compiled ambitious platforms. Some
of their top initiatives were evaluated by UNC officials for feasibility. See the voter guide on pages 6 and 7 to learn

president candidate Rick Ingram for campaigning in a “malicious

The board instead voted to punish the junior by fining him
$25, or 10 percent of his allotted campaign funds, and handing
down another punishment, the specifics of which were not avail-
able at press time. Ingram will appear on the ballot in today’s
election, which closes at 10 p.m.
“The consensus of the board is that the evidence presented does
not meet a clear and convincing standard of harmful and mali-
cious actions that would warrant disqualification,” said Andrew
Phillips, chairman of the board.
The $25 fine was levied in response to an incident in which one
of Ingram’s campaign managers, Billy Kluttz, solicited petition
signatures in a classroom building, which is prohibited by elec-
tion law. He and Ingram then reportedly attempted to persuade

Santoro resigns as speaker, files suit against elections board

Plans to file second suit with BOE today
By Andy Thomason
Assistant University Editor
In the latest complication to
an already tumultuous campaign
season, Deanna Santoro, speaker
of Student Congress, resigned her
post Monday and filed a lawsuit
with the Student Supreme Court
against the Board of Elections.
The suit challenges rulings by
the board that have allowed can-
didate and current Student Body
Secretary Ian Lee to run for stu-
dent body president, citing misin-
terpreted sections of the Student
Code.
“Over the past few weeks, I have
witnessed the complete lack of
understanding of the function of the
Student Code,” Santoro wrote in an
e-mail to other members of Student
Congress early Monday morning.

Santoro said she hopes the Santoro, who will continue as a
Granville Towers representative in
Student Congress, said her deci-
sion to step down and file suit was
motivated by her frustration with
the board.
“I think that they’re wrong,” she
said.
“I don’t want to sound rude or
very polarized, but I am. I don’t
believe that they’ve loosely inter-
preted it, I think they’ve misinter-
preted it.”
The suit claims the board mis-
interpreted the Code, which also
prohibits the student body secre-
tary and other officials from par-
ticipating in a campaign for any
elected position.
The board issued a decision in
December that ruled Lee’s can-
didacy acceptable, citing a sub-
sequent clause that states “the
official,” when endorsing a can-
didate, must speak on behalf of
themselves rather than student
government.

units from $0 in sales to nearly $1
billion in less than two years.
Lattanze spoke at the school
in January, but it is now posting
his “playbook,” a compendium of
advice ranging from team building
to dealing with obstacles.

Three named for research role BOG
Entwisle of UNC included as finalist
by katia martinez
staff writer
After several months of search-
ing for UNC’s next vice chancellor
for research, three finalists have
emerged: a familiar face, a former
UNC department chairman and a
wild card.
“We feel that the candidates
we’ve selected have outstanding
credentials and we’re excited to
work with them in the coming
months to properly select which
person we want in this position,”
said Karen Gil, dean of the College
of Arts and Sciences and chair-
woman of the search committee.
Among the candidates is
Barbara Entwisle, who has held
the position on an interim basis
since Aug. 1. She has worked at the
University for 29 years.
She said she is honored to be a
finalist, citing her current position
LATE BLOCK STOPS DUKE
Rolle swats final
Blue Devil shot
by Kelly Parsons
Assistant Sports Editor
As the clock wound down in
Carmichael Arena and the North
Carolina women’s basketball team
led Duke by just two, the Blue
Devils drove down the court in a
last-ditch effort to tie the score.
Duke’s Chelsea Gray, who had
already picked up a season-high
20 points, attempted a buzzer-
beating layup.
Waltiea Rolle was in the right
place at the right time.
“I was just helping, waiting for
WOMEN’S
her to get there,”
the 6-foot-6
BASKETBALL Tar Heel cen-
Duke 60 ter said. “I saw
UNC  62 it coming, so I
just blocked it.”
Rolle had already scored 10
points and grabbed a team-lead-
ing nine rebounds. But that game-
saving block would be her biggest
contribution of the night.
Saving her team from overtime,
Rolle helped No. 13 UNC to a
62-60 win against No. 5 Duke.
The junior had seven blocks
during the game, two of them in
the final three minutes.
For coach Sylvia Hatchell,
grooming her tallest player has
been a work in progress, but in
moments like these, she sees how
far she’s come.
“Waltiea never touched the bas-
ketball until she was in the ninth
grade,” Hatchell said. “When we
recruited her she was really raw.
But she’s worked really hard and
she’s gotten a lot stronger. She has
great timing … and size makes a
big difference.”
Despite the heart-racing ending
for UNC, the game didn’t exactly
start that way. The Tar Heels didn’t
get their first basket until three min-
utes into the game, and the Blue
Devils went on an early 11-2 run that
forced Hatchell to signal timeout.
“I don’t know what was wrong
with us when we first started,”
Hatchell said. “Duke started off
strong. Then we finally settled
down and started playing. I don’t
know if they were just caught up in
the Carolina-Duke thing, or what
it was.”

Chapel Hill to feel new pulse
A new nightclub is coming to 136 E. Rosemary
St. this month, with a tentative opening night
of Feb. 11.
Richard Sergo, a junior at UNC, said he real-
ized that Chapel Hill needed more nightclubs and
pitched the idea of opening Club Pulse to his
family, who now owns the new business.
“You can actually come and relax and enjoy
yourself, or you can come out and grind on the
dance floor all night long,” Sergo said.
Club Pulse, which will be an 18 and up
venue, will have a cover charge of up to $10,
depending on the age group and time of night,
Sergo said.
It has more than 5,000 square feet of space
and will have a maximum capacity of approxi-
mately 560 people.
“There’s no way to enjoy yourself when you’re
slammed up against other people,” he said. “I’m
trying to keep it a classy place.”

have to decide
if the scenario in question creates
a conflict of interest.
“It would not have occurred to
me, as it probably did not occur to
him, that his decision to work with
Rep. Tillis would interfere with his
ability to serve as a member of the
Board of Governors,” said board
member Burley Mitchell Jr.
Mitchell said the board has not
had any formal discussions about
Daughtridge’s new position.
And N.C. Rep. Bill Faison,
D-Caswell, said this kind of relation-
ship between legislators and board
members is not uncommon because
they are appointed by legislators.
“The university has always had
a very close relationship with leg-
islature because a lot of university
funding comes from the legisla-
ture,” Faison said. “All members
appointed by House or Senate
generally have strong personal
relationships with members of the
House or Senate, and I don’t see
that as a bad thing.”
Hannah Gage, chairwoman
of the board, said this is also not
the first time a board member has
worked closely with a legislator.
“It is a volunteer and an unpaid
position so he will not be a state
employee,” Gage said.
She said Daughtridge spoke to
attorneys and got legal opinions
regarding his new position.
Tillis said in an interview last
month that understanding the
specifics of how the University with
Daughtridge’s help could be valu-
able, especially given the severe
budget cuts the system is facing.
“My interest in the University
system and the message I wanted
to send to them about being cer-
tain that we protect and promote it
is probably best evidenced by who
I have as a senior policy adviser,”
he said.

Glen Lennox gets new $42 million investor
Money will go toward renovations
by Nora Chan
staff writer
Residents of a Chapel Hill
apartment complex might see
renovations after a Washington,
D.C.-based company announced a
$42 million investment Tuesday.
Federal Capital Partners is pair-
ing with Grubb Properties, owner
of the Glen Lennox apartment com-
munity off N.C. 54 since 1986. The
project also includes Riverwoods
Apartments in Raleigh.
The money in Glen Lennox will
mostly go toward maintenance and
renovations for the property, said
Todd Williams, the vice president of
investments for Grubb. He said the
property is more than 60 years old.
“We do know that at some point
in time in the long-term future that
we will have to make some tough
decisions about what the future of
that property will be given the age
of some of those assets,” Williams
said. “That’s essentially the process
that we’re going through with the
community right now.”
Grubb decided to seek a partner
last spring, Williams said.
Council revisits town plan
by Mary Choi
staff writer
The town’s comprehensive plan
dominated discussion at the Chapel
Hill Town Council’s annual retreat,
with council members pointing out
the need to update the document
more frequently and better incor-
porate town services.
The last comprehensive plan
was finalized in May 2000, and
the plans traditionally focus on
land-use patterns, said Mayor
Mark Kleinschmidt in an inter-
view.
He and council member Penny
Rich said they would like Chapel
Hill’s new plan to integrate use
of services like the police, the fire
department and schools.
“I certainly want to make sure
that the process for creating it is
an inclusive one,” Kleinschmidt
said. “And that the community has
adequate opportunity to partici-
pate and influence the outcome of
the plan.”
The comprehensive plan out-
lines community priorities, helps
set policy direction and serves as a
guideline for future decisions.
“Federal Capital Partners stood
out amongst all the folks that we
had talked to,” Williams said. “They
had a similar interest in the prop-
erty that we did, which was more of
a long-term interest in seeing that
property through any changes.”
The investment marks Federal
Capital’s first in North Carolina.
“We’ve been looking in the
Raleigh-Durham area specifically
for a couple of years now,” said
Alex Marshall, managing partner
for Federal Capital.
“The Glen Lennox complex is
very well-located in Chapel Hill,
which is a strong market for apart-
ment demand and other funda-
mentals,” he said.
Stephen Estes, a UNC senior who
has lived in Glen Lennox for two
years, said companies buying from a
distance may change the target com-
munity for the neighborhood.
“Glen Lennox in the past has
been a place for affordable housing
and access to campus, and it has
met the needs of people who need
those two things,” Estes said.
“They’ll be trying to maximize
David Owens, a professor in the
UNC School of Government who
discussed the plan with the council
at the retreat, said the comprehen-
sive plan should look 10 to 20 years
down the road.
“You need that longer time
perspective to provide the critical
context for individual decisions,”
Owens said. “It’s hard to step back
and look at the big picture and
look at the long term.
“It’s difficult to make it concrete,
but it’s extremely important.”
The current comprehensive plan
is organized around 12 themes,
which include conserving and
protecting existing neighborhoods,

Egypt’s new cabinet meets to bring
stability but protestors still resisting
CAIRO — Eg ypt’s newly
appointed cabinet met Monday
as the government attempted to
reassert stability over the turbu-

Cairo’s Tahrir Square continuing
to resist the new administration.
The cabinet met without the
widely despised former interior
minister, Habib al-Adly — replaced

the large number of protesters
detained over the last two weeks.

saying he was the victim of
unduly aggressive prosecutors
and would not be guaranteed a
fair trial.
On the opening day of a
two-day hearing, Assange’s
legal team sought to downplay
the severity of the molestation
and rape accusations against
him and to cast doubt on the
credibility and authority of the
Swedish prosecutor seeking his
extradition.
They called a witness who
referred to her as an “ultra-radi-
cal feminist.”
But British prosecutors, act-
ing on their Swedish colleagues’
behalf, said the alleged crimes
committed during Assange’s
liaisons with two women last
August were serious enough to
warrant his return to Stockholm

charged.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT)
— U.S. Rep. Jane Harman, a lead-

Monday.
The California Democrat

after her party lost control of the

election to choose her successor.
Harman’s departure was first
reported by NBC News.
Harman was sending an
e-mail to constituents Monday
notifying them of her decision.
“I have always believed that the
best solutions to tough problems
require a bipartisan approach,
and bipartisanship is the center’s
‘brand,’” she said in the e-mail.

Islam-related terrorism in US declines
by madeline will
staff writer
Islam-initiated terrorism in the
U.S. decreased in frequency last
year, according to a recent study’s
findings.
The study, conducted by the
Triangle Center on Terrorism and
Homeland Security, found the num-
ber of Muslim-American terrorism
suspects and perpetrators dropped
from 47 in 2009 to 20 in 2010.
“This study examines the list of
Muslim Americans who engaged in
plots of terrorism since 9/11,” said

He carried the “nuclear foot-
ball,” the briefcase containing all
the data needed for the United
States to launch a nuclear attack.
He tracked the location of
Osama bin Laden on a satellite
phone.
And for two years, retired Lt.
Col. Robert “Buzz” Patterson
followed President Bill Clinton
across the globe as his senior mili-
tary aide.
Once, as Patterson told a crowd
of students Tuesday in Dey Hall,
he even walked in on the president
and Monica Lewinsky.
But it wasn’t until 1996 that
Patterson said he became politi-
cal. When the administration’s
job offer first arrived, he thought
it was a prank.
“I didn’t start out to be a conser-
vative pundit,” Patterson said.
After serving 20 years in the
U.S. Air Force, including several
tours of duty as a combat pilot,
Patterson got a call from the White
House inviting him to serve as
Clinton’s senior military aide.
He accepted and moved to
Washington, D.C., two weeks
later.
Patterson said he voted for
Ronald Reagan but didn’t vote
again until he cast a ballot for
George W. Bush in 2000. He said
his political views developed dur-
ing his time in the White House.
Today, Patterson blames the
9/11 attacks on Clinton, who had
several opportunities to have bin
Laden killed, he said.
“We knew exactly where he
was,” Patterson said. “We had at
least eight to 10 times to pull the
trigger on bin Laden — to either
capture him or kill him — in my
two years in the White House,
and every single time, President
Clinton chose not to.”
Patterson added that Clinton
knew of the perceived threats of al-

director of the Carolina Center for
the Study of the Middle East and
Muslim Civilizations.
The number of terrorism suspects
in the United States in 2009 was an
outlier compared to the trend over
the past 10 years, he said.
“ This drop was surprising
given the public attention given
to Muslim terrorism,” Kurzman
said.
“The number of individuals is not
nearly as large as we would expect.”
From 2001 to 2008, there were

he is a strong supporter.
“Whether or not President Bush
intended it to be this way, it was a

of things,” Patterson said.

Compared to leading causes of

are not significant.
Since 9/11, there were 33 deaths

due to a combination of good luck
and good policing, he said.

Along with three other panelists,

Kerdany, a native of Cairo, said
she would be in Tahrir Square —

“My daughter is one of the revo-

 The Daily Tar Heel
Ru∞n-Pratt provides spark
Stifles Duke’s
leading scorer
by Megan walsh
senior writer
Bouncing from adrenaline, the
North Carolina women’s basket-
ball team gathered in a huddle for
a final word of inspiration Monday
before meeting Duke on the court
in Carmichael Arena.
“Rebound.”
Ten minutes into the first half, it
was clear sophomore guard Tierra
Ruffin-Pratt was listening.
“(Ruffin-)Pratt did a really good
job defensively and rebounding,”
UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell said.
“She’s just playing better and bet-
ter.”
Ruffin-Pratt’s dominating pres-
ence led the Tar Heels by example
under the basket as the 5-foot-10
Tar Heel earned five rebounds in
the first half.
Playing defense against Duke’s
top scorer for the season, senior
Jasmine Thomas, Ruffin-Pratt
finished second in boards for the
night and first in leadership and
aggression.
Ruffin-Pratt went on to pick
up three key buckets to shift the
momentum in the Tar Heels’ favor,
as North Carolina went on to a last-
second 62-60 victory against the
Blue Devils.
“I was just focused, like in the
zone the whole game, starting
with the defensive end and it just
all turned over into the offensive
end,” Ruffin-Pratt said. “I was mak-
ing shots and giving people the ball
when they were open, so it just got
me going.”
North Carolina took its first lead
of the game, 21-20, as Ruffin-Pratt’s
aggression turned two missed free
throws by junior Laura Broomfield
into a key play. Powering past a
Blue Devil, the guard earned an
offensive rebound and found open
space to sink a momentum-chang-
ing jumper.

and Italee Lucas helped UNC rally
back and go into halftime leading
by one.
In typical style, Lucas proved to
be a vocal leader all night long.
Five minutes into the second
half and the shot clock winding
down, the highly defended Lucas
was searching to pass to a team-
mate. Seeing no one, she decided to
take matters into her own hands.
After a last-second rush to the
basket, the next thing the senior
heard was the buzzer-beating swish
as the UNC lead increased to four.
The Tar Heels had three and-
ones in the final four minutes of the
game, something the Blue Devils
knew would come back to haunt
them. UNC shot only 7 of 18 from
the foul line, but when handed the
opportunities late in the game, the
Tar Heels took advantage of them.
“I thought we didn’t win the
battle of being smart,” Duke coach
Joanne McCallie said. “I think
there were three or four and-ones
called at the end of the game,
which is completely unacceptable
and shows a lack of discipline on
our part.”

while some remain critical of
this social morphing, I think it’s
a skill we need to welcome — at
least as far as our verbalization.
These automatic, unconscious
shifts in language are evident in
how we alter our vocabularies
when speaking to children. And
generally, the way you speak to
friends at a party is not the same
as the way you speak to a profes-
sor at office hours.
Former British Prime Minister
Tony Blair is known for deliver-
ing speeches in the accent of his
audience — so much so that the
accent he took on in some of his
1980s speeches bore no resem-
blance to his recent ones.
Social psychologists title this
copycat nature “the chameleon
effect” and insist that it happens
naturally and frequently because
we feel a rapport with people
who mimic not only our accents,
but also our moves.
While on the P2P the other
day, my casual conversation
with the person next to me was
interrupted with a phone call.
She quickly switched over to a
Jersey accent for that conversa-
tion, and then back to her neu-
tral Chapel Hill tongue after it
ended. Comforting the caller in
her native accent was probably
all that caller really needed. Her
mimicry was unconscious, unno-
ticed and harmless.
It would typically be in our
best interests to have pleasant
relations with those around us.
And if slight alterations in speech
patterns can help, then why not
use them?
Therapists, salespeople and
tons of other professionals are
sometimes advised to use mim-
icry to help build relations with
others. Imitating vocabulary,
speech, rhythm, accents, posture
and gestures can help ease com-
munication.
This chameleon effect reaches
farther than just regional accents.

D
eanna Santoro’s surprise
resignation Monday
morning from her role
as speaker of Student Congress
marks only the beginning of
her effort to send shock waves
through student government.
Santoro is filing suit against
the Board of Elections for fail-
ure to rule at all on certain sec-
tions of the Code and ruling
improperly on other sections.
Now that she’s in the game,
Santoro wants an injunction
on the results of today’s elec-
tion until her case is resolved.
It’s no secret that this has
been one of the most tumultu-
ous election seasons in recent
memory. Two candidates — Rick
Ingram and Ian Lee — have
seemed to stretch the Student
Code to its absolute limits, if not
shattered them entirely.
Yet the BOE has inadequate-
ly addressed these concerns.
Election regulation doesn’t get
more laissez-faire than this.
Santoro, who resigned
because those in her position
are prohibited by the Code from
making “any statement against
a campaign or candidate,” airs
her grievances in her virtually
empty former office in the stu-
dent government suite. Only a
few personal items and snacks
stacked in a chair are left to
indicate anyone inhabited it.
A reputation for reform
Santoro has become known
for a stubborn reform-minded-
ness. She said she was inspired
to join Congress after the con-
troversy surrounding former
speaker Tim Nichols and his
abysmal leadership. Back then,
Congress was ripe for change.

about, but instead because mim-
icry is one of the best forms of
flattery, and it’s doubtful that
the interviewer will be speaking
“Southern.”
In the end, the bulk of com-
munication isn’t how we’re saying
it — it’s what we’re saying. And if
altering an accent helps get my
point across, so be it.
Wednesday:
Perry Tsai writes about an
unconventional body image issue.
T
he UCommons fee
increase referendum
made it on today’s ballot.
Although this board has
endorsed the project itself, we
have sincere problems with the
way the Union conducted its
campaign.
Student body president cam-
paigns may use up to $250.
The Union used more than
$1,300.
SBP campaigns are prohib-
ited from paying students to
campaign. The Union paid stu-
dent staff to gather signatures.
While the Student Code
charges the Board of Elections
with regulating and policing
campaigns, it lacks more spe-
cific rules for fee referenda.
The Union took advantage
of this gap and ran its cam-
paign in a way that would
clearly be in violation of the
Student Code if student cam-
paigns had done it.
While an institution has a
right to advocate on its behalf,
it’s the utter lack of proportion-
ality that has upset the student
body — and rightfully so.
With no funded and orga-
nized opposition, the market-
place of ideas that an election
season is supposed to embody
was markedly one-sided.
Student Congress had the
opportunity to fund Students
for a Democratic Society to
launch a counter-campaign,
but the motion failed.
Unfortunately, this left the
student body with only one
dominant perspective in what
would be a major financial
investment for the University.
Students deserve the right to
information about both sides
of an issue — especially when
a University institution with
a large budget is in control of
one side of the debate.
Other controversial fees —
such as the child care fee —
have gone on the ballot without
a juggernaut advertising cam-
paign, yet the debate regard-
ing the fee was robust to say
the least.
The Union’s missteps have
not only exposed a gaping
regulatory hole in the Student
Code, they’ve also obscured
a perfectly good project with
an uproar about campaign-
ing strategy. We hope students
will look to the idea and not the
marketing.
