The Universitys written procedures for sexual harassment, tolerance and other policies could be interpreted as a violation of First Amendment rights, according to a recent study. The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), a nonpartisan organization that advocates for the protection of civil liberties at universities, conducted the study, which defined campus censorship as university policies prohibiting speech that would otherwise be protected by the First Amendment. Campus censorship often occurs in the form of obscenity,
harassment, anti-bullying, tolerance and Internet usage policies, said Samantha Harris, director of speech code research for FIRE. The 2012 report outlined certain aspects of UNC-CH and other schools policies that threaten free speech. The study gave green, yellow and red light ratings to 392 public and private universities. Only 14 of the colleges surveyed received green light ratings, the rating given to schools whose written policies did not threaten free speech. UNC-CH received the yellow light rating because many of its written procedures are vague and could be interpreted as campus censorship, Harris said. Because of (several policies) vague wording, it is also difficult for students to know exactly what is prohibited and what is allowed, which leads to a chilling effect on student speech, she said. An example of one of these policies is the Universitys

But did you know its also an effective way to commit prescription fraud? No, you didnt, because its not. But one Tennessee man found that out the hard way. Douglas Gregory Nichols, 36, was arrested Jan. 17 on charges of prescription fraud after he wore a wig and makeup to pose as his recently deceased sister in order to pick up her Xanax and hydrocodone prescriptions. Police said Nichols trick worked the first time, but pharmacy staff recognized he wasnt the right person the second time around. Thats messed up, but were willing to bet thats not as messed up as some of the things some college students have done for Adderall.

Days into the student body president campaign, three of the then-seven candidates were having so much trouble setting up online petitions that they turned to ITS for help.

Three of the candidates Leigh Fairley, Will Leimenstoll and Warche Downing said they had trouble setting up a way to authenticate a students Onyen and approached ITS directly. Bruce Egan, director of the ITS Response Center, said it took some time to set up the website for the first candidate who approached ITS. We had no understanding going in of what the require-

Matt Howell, manager of walk-in services at ITS, said setting up the websites was not difficult for his staff. The cost to ITS would be no more than if someone came in and needed help troubleshooting a wireless connection. Its nothing out of the ordinary in terms of cost, he said. Howell said candidates then had to check with the Board of Elections to make sure the setup was within the rules. He added that an official system for online signatures might be set up in the future.

I found a friend that was computer savvy enough, candidate Calvin Lewis said. In the past, candidates have campaigned for signatures on clipboards in the Pit or by canvassing residence halls, a method known as dorm storming. Last year, Ian Lee was the first candidate to create an online alternative to paper signatures. The Board of Elections approved the method. Lee is now a member of The Daily Tar Heels editorial board. All of the then-seven candidates set up their websites by Saturday, they said. Signatures must be submitted to the board by Tuesday at 5 p.m. Brian Min and Tim Longest are also running for student body president. Nico Garces withdrew from the race Sunday. Longest said the boards decision to approve online signatures while declining to offer further guidance was fair. It is very difficult to get set up, even if youre a serious web designer, he said. Candidates said they are mostly using social media and word of mouth to promote their online petitions. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.
A Closer CommuniTy
dth/erin hull Arcadia Cohousing is a pedestrian-oriented residential cohousing community on 16 acres about three miles from the towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill.
Christian Stalberg is seeking residents to create an ecovillage a community that would share common land, farm organically, use its own currency and be located about 10 minutes west of Chapel Hill. Stalberg said he hopes to begin construction on a community that would house up to 100 people on 100 acres of land in the Efland area by the end of the year, after clearing the project with the county. The community would use little energy, provide affordable housing and make decisions based on general consensus, he said. It would also use environmentally and socially healthy practices to create a sustainable way of life. Its also an effort at replacing the alienation of our common society where you dont know your neighbor, he said. While the community will be new, it is not the areas first intentional community a group formed on purpose by people who share common values. Arcadia Cohousing, a community in Carrboro, was also created by people who agreed to work together toward a common goal. Here in our Arcadia community, our focus is around learning how to be a good neighbor and learning to share resources, said Becky Laskody, an Arcadia resident.
The group that formed Arcadia was created in 1991 and built its community on 16.5 acres in 1994. Instead of the traditional neighborhood road, a central sidewalk connects houses in Arcadia, leads to a community garden and passes by a common house complete with kitchen, library, and guest rooms. Some houses are joined and all are located close together. Stalberg said if approved and built, the ecovillage will contain similar features, including a common house with community resources, and will also raise organic crops and livestock to feed residents. We would like the ecovillage to be as food selfsufficient as possible, he said. Stalberg said the community would use natural materials and energy-efficient methods to construct homes ranging from 100 to 400 square feet . Arcadia was also designed with the environment in mind, providing access to solar power and protecting the surrounding woods, Laskody said. Its also important for folks to see that there are different ways to create neighborhoods, she said. We dont have to stick with the usual model that developers offer. Like the planned ecovillage, Arcadia uses a democratic decision-making process that allows all residents to get involved. While residents may abstain from voting, those who participate in voting must all be in accord for the decision to stand.
Here in our Arcadia community, our focus is around learning how to be a good neighbor and learning to share resources.
Becky Laskody, Arcadia resident
Steven Fisher, an Arcadia resident, said he values Arcadias respect for privacy and of the individuals choice to get involved in the decision-making process. Fisher joined Arcadia because his wife had multiple sclerosis and needed a house to fit her needs. I was interested in having the opportunity to design a house that would suit her, he said. Elisabeth Curtis, another resident, joined partly to participate in a social experiment to see if people can live so close to one another. If we cant do it here, what hope is there for the rest of the world? she said. Laskody added that living in an intentional community helps develop interdependence. Though it takes extra work you gain a lot from the sharing that you do with other people. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.
Supporters of the Universitys gender-neutral housing initiative will have to wait a little longer for a decision from Chancellor Holden Thorp. Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Winston Crisp said earlier this month that Thorp would take action on the proposal by Jan. 27. That date is now passed, but Crisp said he is confident a decision will come in the next few days. Thorp was unavailable for comment Friday. University spokesman Mike McFarland said more information on the proposals status will be available this week. The gender-neutral housing proposal, if passed, would allow students of the opposite sex to live together in a specified UNC residence hall starting in the fall semester. The proposals supporters say it addresses issues of safety and would make some students feel more comfortable in their residence halls. Sophomore Kevin Claybren, who started the gender-neutral housing proposal, said he doesnt know why a decision hasnt been made yet. I was with everyone else with thinking (Thorp) was going to make one by Friday, Claybren said. Crisp wrote in an email that Thorp will need to make a decision by the end of the month at the latest. Our ability to move forward on a decision to implement would have to happen in early February, Crisp wrote. I can only assume (Thorp) had not finished his consideration in time for a decision Friday and will do so in the next day or so. Rick Bradley, assistant director of Housing and Residential Education, said in September that the housing department is ready to take action on the proposal as soon as it is approved, should Thorp approve the measure. Terri Phoenix, director of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Center, said earlier this month that Thorp has in the past been an ally for inclusion. Claybren said he is hopeful the delay in announcing a decision reflects the amount of consideration Thorp is putting into it. Im just hoping that this time that he is taking is to make the best decision for our campus. Contact the University Editor at university@dailytarheel.com.

UNC study says high-fiber diet increases diverticulosis risk
UNC School of Medicine researchers have found that a highfiber diet increases the rise of developing diverticulosis, contradicting the widely held belief that this diet lowers the risk. Diverticulosis is a disease of the large intestine in which pouches develop in the colon wall. It affects about one-third of adults older than 60. The study also found that constipation does not increase a persons risk of the disease, contrary to another popular belief.

UNC Bhangra Elite has justified its name. The Indian folk dance team will compete in the Elite 8 Bhangra Invitational in Washington, D.C., on March 3. The invitation-only competition, sponsored by Emdo Entertainment, selects eight Bhangra teams throughout North America to participate. Of this years participants,
Bhangra Elite is the only team with both male and female members. This year marks the first time the group has been chosen for the competition. Ameer Ghodke, a captain for Bhangra Elite, said waiting for the announcement of the teams invitation was extremely drawn out. The process of our hearing about getting in is a seven- or eight-week process, he said. Every week they announce a new team, and we were on the tail end of that. He said though the team members werent expecting to be chosen, they knew they had a good shot.
Prasant Lokinendi, the teams manager, said the invitation confirms Bhangra Elites status as a highly talented team. Its kind of like the Elite Eight in basketball, he said. When you get that far, you know youre a good team. Bianca Patel, another one of the teams captains, said Bhangra Elite will begin holding extra practices to prepare for Elite 8. Ghodke said the team will practice for two or three hours every night. You have to prepare like varsity sports do for a big game, he said. Patel also said that prior to
the competition, the team will have to make some changes to the routine it typically performs. Were going to have to add some more gimmicks for Elite 8, she said. Less than a week before Elite 8, Bhangra Elite will perform in another competition in Durham that calls for a more traditional routine, Patel said. Ghodke said the quick transition between the different routines will be a challenge, but he knows Bhangra Elite will be up to it. When you have something as big as this, everyone buckles down, he said. Lokinendi said two or three
years ago, Bhangra Elite would never have been chosen to compete. We were nowhere close to that level, he said. But now, with a lot of hard work, were one of the top teams in the United States and Canada. Contact the Arts Editor at arts@dailytarheel.com.

Time: 8 p.m. tonight and Tuesday
In 2003, UNC became one of few public universities to offer a screenwriting program for undergraduates. Nine years later, the Writing for the Screen and Stage minor program remains a rare but often overlooked opportunity for aspiring dramatic writers. We really want people who are, in their minds, serious about this career, said Dana Coen, interim director of the program. The application period for the ninth class of the program opens Wednesday to sophomores. The program is designed for students devoted to dramatic writing, Coen said. Once accepted, students are required to take five courses over their last four semesters three development, one analysis and one screenwriting history to hone their skills in television, film and play writing. Coen said the history class teaches students the story behind screenwriters current undervalued positions in the industry and makes them aware of their value as storytellers in the industry. They need to come out knowing their worth, he said. Movies cant be made without scripts. The program also prepares students for the postgraduate reality of entertainment writing. Once you graduate from college, its a hard world out there, said David Sontag, who directed the program at UNC until his retirement last spring. Sontag first implemented the program nine years ago after the University received a $500,000 grant from alum and fellow screenwriter Michael Piller to create a screenwriting program. He said he wanted to give students a way of expressing themselves through digital and visual media a form that combines words and images to reflect the human experience. Sontag said that in novels an author has time to develop a characters inner monologue, but

thats not the case with dramatic writing or real life. We live in a space between the words, he said. He also said the five courses were adequate in training while giving students the opportunity to take liberal arts courses. That was the proper length for it, he said. Were not a conservatory. The programs professors all former Hollywood screenwriters teach their students to become independent so they can succeed. You prepare them the best you can, and its up to them to go to Los Angeles or New York and prove themselves, said Scott Myers, a professor in the program. But the program can provide a head start in the industry. Ross Maloney, part of the minors current graduating class, will work with Scott Free Productions in Los Angeles as part of the Hollywood Internship Program, which places graduating
Featuring classic Broadway tunes and pop-culture parodies, Sundays matinee of Pauper Players annual production Broadway Melodies was a highenergy, entertaining show. Three small musicals The Kardashians: The Musical, Avatartanic and Pokemon: The Musical were written by and catered to students. Each is cleverly hilarious. The writers of the musicals utilized the melodies of Broadway, sampling from Les Miserables, Sweeney Todd and Grease. But their original stories were based on what their target audience knew: Kim Kardashians divorce, Celine Dions influence on Titanic, the blue oddities of Avatar and the gaming storyline of Pokemon. Under the Sea from The Little Mermaid became In N.Y.C., sung by Kris Jenner played by Rosalee Lewis in Kardashians, convincing her daughters to audition for a Broadway show. The unique lyrics were perfectly intertwined with the origi-
nal songs. Each story was a parody of its respective topic, making jokes about the Kardashian family dynamics and the cheesy romances in Titanic and Avatar. The performers technical skills, though, were hit-or-miss. George Barrett, playing both Reggie Bush in Kardashians and Jack Dawson in Avatartanic, was inaudible when accompanied by the piano or his fellow cast members. But Alex Daly, who played Ash in Pokemon, was heard clearly as he filled the auditorium with spot-on notes as audience members clapped along with the music. The acting was sometimes unrealistic, and the timing of dialogue was unnaturally off. Brandon Lannings portrayal of James Cameron in Avatartanic had a line that epitomized the shows spirit.

Why would you come to a show called Avatartanic if you expect us to follow the rules? The show didnt care about seriousness it cared about fun. The cast stayed devoted to the story, embodying tackily passionate characters. The performers displayed obvious affection for the show. It appeared the shows only goal was the audiences enjoyment and judging by the standing ovation at curtain call, that goal was achieved.

opportunities to benefit from University life? Winston Crisp, UNC-CHs vice chancellor for student affairs, said he is comfortable with the yellow light rating because the Universitys policies focus on conduct rather than speech. I understand that adverse effect could be applied loosely and be problematic, he said. But we are talking about actions that make it difficult for people to access education. Red light ratings were given to 256 of the 392 schools surveyed for policies that FIRE said restrict freedom of speech. Five UNC-system schools received the red light. FIREs website cited
Appalachian State Universitys harassment policy as one of the reasons for its red light rating. The foundation said the policy prohibits offensive behavior instead of sexual harassment. The Office of Equity, Diversity and Compliance at ASU includes sexual innuendos, sexually explicit questions and repeated requests for dates with someone who isnt interested as sexual harassment. But according to FIREs report, sexual harassment is deemed by U.S. Supreme Court rulings as extreme and repetitive behavior that interferes with a persons ability to receive an education. Linda Foulsham, director of the office at ASU, said the red light rating was completely unwarranted. The instances would only be determined to be sexual harass-

PROTEST
listening to speakers at the rally read, The first amendment is our permit. At the protest, speakers from Occupy discussed a range of issues focused on free speech, performed a play and sang. Andy Koch, a UNC Students for a Democratic Society member who spoke at the rally, said the ordinances restricted free speech. Our voice is being pushed out of the way by ordinances, by police, he said. Protester Alex Berkman said from its start, the movement has valued constitutional rights more than town restrictions. What was important was that we were asserting our rights as
citizens, he said. Protesters also questioned Stancils stance on enforcement. I think hes exerting his influence a little too strongly, protester Alex Kotch said. Berkman said Town Council hasnt stood up for occupiers. Theyre clearly out of touch with the town. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.

The reality is that in a free-thinking society, open discourse about contentious issues benefits us all, even when specific issues make some people more uncomfortable than others.
breal, on a letter stating that a womans abortion is nobodys business
ver since Occupy Chapel Hill set up camp in Peace and Justice Plaza, the town has learned a great lesson about what measures people will take to have their voices heard. Recently, the group has taken concern with a memo written by Town Manager Roger Stancil asking the Town Council to discuss the enforcement of ordinances regarding the use of public space in Chapel Hill. I attended Occupy Chapel Hills rally on Sunday in the plaza, where the movement pushed for Chapel Hill to free up public space. The group also has a petition on its website calling for the immediate repeal of three of Chapel Hills public space ordinances. While Occupy Chapel Hill didnt foster any noticeable changes in the town (besides a campsite on Franklin Street), it may have a point in all its noise. Some of the current rules Stancil outlines in his memo are clearly archaic and should be reviewed. One ordinance states that the town managers office cant issue permits for protests in public spaces on Sundays, a rule that doesnt have much effect on safety. But the Town Council should keep its restriction on how long groups can stay in public spaces because areas in the town designated for public use should be open to all residents, not dominated by one cause. Occupy Chapel Hill demonstrated that it is possible to protest peacefully without following the ordinances in question. The protesters didnt cause any major incidents and encouraged safe and spirited activism. But regardless of safety or aesthetic concerns, the towns public spaces should be available to any resident. With protests settling in public spaces for days at a time, every group wanting to promote their cause cant possibly be accommodated. While Occupy has every right to protest there, the restrictions are a matter of consideration for other peoples rights. Occupy may have cooperated with some groups, but seeing the camp in the plaza is enough to discourage a group from trying to reserve the space for itself. The restrictions within the ordinances address this issue clearly. There is a rule prohibiting the town from issuing a space permit more than six consecutive days in a row to the same group a rule that is in place to regulate the fair use of the space. Ever since Peace and Justice Plaza was renamed in 2006, it has been dedicated to giving a voice to nonprofit organizations that cant get their voices heard otherwise. Various groups have used the plaza for protests, ceremonies, rallies and even Girl Scout cookie sales. But when one group dominates the space, the plazas goal of opportunity for everyone cannot be achieved. Yes, Occupy had and still has the right to protest in the plaza. The same goes to any other group in the town. The town isnt taking away any groups rights of free speech or assembly by placing time restrictions on public space use, which are Occupys main argument against these ordinances. Chapel Hill was certainly sympathetic to Occupy Chapel Hill by letting it camp out for three months in the premiere protest spot on Franklin Street. Now that the tents are gone, the town must remember that every resident of Chapel Hill has their own cause and should be able to have their voice heard in a public space.

Likewise, when athletes encounter disciplinary problems, they are afforded the same rights to privacy and due process as any other student. When it comes to their public lives, however, athletes are held to different standards, since they act as representatives of UNC. This too seems sensible. But for the grey area between public and private interactions, University policy is lacking and most social media falls squarely in this gray area. The athletic departments current social media policy includes such generalities as Everything you post is public information, and vague admonitions like What you post may affect your future. Without more specific guidance, students and coaches are left to make it up as they go along, and the right path isnt always clear. An outright
ban seems rash, but a coachs desire to err on the side of caution is perfectly understandable, especially when the stakes are so high. Disgraced former football star Marvin Austin provided a classic social media cautionary tale when he penned an incriminating tweet two summers ago, sparking a lengthy NCAA investigation and leading to his dismissal from the team. UNCs current policy reflects a crude understanding of social media. It needs to be rewritten to better address the various and complex problems student athletes encounter. No policy like this will ever be perfect, but the University should at least take a stab at it. UNC owes its student athletes consistency and clarity about what is expected of them, not just on and off the field, but also online.

increases for system schools will likely pass when the board meets on Feb. 10, but students should still capitalize on the publicity surrounding the vote to make their voices heard. If nothing else, protests outside the meeting will demonstrate to the board that students are not being effectively represented on the board and that they are clamoring to be part of the process. Student participation in the meeting itself is also an issue. Currently, the only student who can speak at board meetings is Atul Bhula, the president of the UNC-system Association of Student Governments. But for an issue like tuition, one voice isnt enough, particularly a silent one. Bhula has
barely spoken at board meetings, squandering a critical opportunity for student input. The board should find ways to involve students more in its decision-making process, even if their procedures preclude participation by students other than Bhula. Though students will never be happy about a tuition increase, better involvement would likely mitigate their dissatisfaction. In the future, the board should add a campus outreach event to its regular meeting schedule. In order for this model to work, however, interested students have to show up. Without continued participation in the process, students cannot expect the board to give much weight to their views.
Educating voters
n November, North Carolina will elect new state legislators, new national representatives and a new governor on top of helping choose the next president. These elections will determine the trajectory of public education both in this state and across the country. As voters in a swing state, North Carolinians will play a critical role in this process. UNC students should make the most of this opportunity to influence education policy. If for some reason students dont think they are affected by education policy, perhaps this
EDiTOriAl
years tuition increases will convince them otherwise. Whether they support Democrats or Republicans, or arent yet sure of their political leanings, all UNC students have a stake in the upcoming elections. If they hope to avoid future tuition increases, students should vote accordingly. Our state legislators play a crucial, if indirect, role in these debates by appointing the members of the UNCsystem Board of Governors. And as beneficiaries of North Carolinas education spending, we should support candidates who support our school. On a national scale, too, education has loomed large in political conversations. Last Tuesdays State of the Union address provided good evi-
dence of this; Obama dedicated a solid portion of his speech to the importance of education to the future of this country. Obama also mentioned North Carolina three times in Tuesdays address. This was no coincidence, nor was the decision to hold this years Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Obamas narrow victory here in 2008 has established North Carolina as a battleground state, and efforts to target voters here will only increase as the election approaches. UNC students should take advantage of this spotlight and make sure that education remains at the forefront of political dialogue. With so much at stake, we cant afford to be apathetic.
ASG is trying to organize buses to transport students from some far-reaching UNC-system schools to Chapel Hill for the meeting. Tonight at 8 p.m., Mary Cooper is hosting a teach-in about tuition at the Campus Y. The teach-in is open to all students.

various methods to calculate student growth. It is also doing classroom observations of a random sample of teachers to measure the reliability of principals evaluations. Henry said the validity of the evaluations will improve after principals have had a few years to practice using the tool. This takes training on the part of principals, and practice, he said. Garland said the department will hire a staff member to help improve the reliability of the data and work with principals to standardize their responses to the evaluations. The evaluation system has essentially been converted from a tool for professional development to a means of improving transparency, Henry said. Its really being retrofitted, in a way, for a purpose that it wasnt necessarily designed to fulfill, he said. It can probably do it, but there may need to be refinements in order to work out all the issues with it.

In a politically charged yet lighthearted musical skit, a group of UNC students serenaded Orange County residents about gay marriage Sunday evening. N.C. Amendment One: The Musical! is a six-minute show about the proposed same-sex marriage amendment that will appear on the upcoming primary ballots in May. The amendment would define marriage between one man and one woman as the only domestic union recognized in North Carolina. UNC sophomore Rachel Kaplan wrote and produced the musical in an effort to inform voters and to demystify the politics surrounding Amendment One. Kaplan and a group of 15 students performed the musical Sunday at the Orange County Human Relations Month Forum 2012, Defining Marriage in North Carolina by Constitutional Amendment: What are the Implications? A panel before the performance facilitated a discussion about the proposed amendment and the Contact the State & National potential negative impact it would Editor at state@dailytarheel.com. have on unmarried couples.
The energy of the small cast provided an upbeat conclusion to the dialogue between the forums panel and audience. Pitting politicians against citizens, the plotline hinges on the contention over voting for the rights of those in same-sex and domestic partnerships. The cheerful resiliency of the citizens contrasts with the brusque demands of the politicians. Each groups arguments create a palpable tension on stage. Seemingly at an impasse, the debate is interrupted by the jovial hail of George Washington, played by sophomore Ben Elling. He is the star of the show when he descends on the politicians and citizens, wittily knocking some sense into the situation. With a disheveled white wig and a wide grin, Elling comically reminds everyone that the nation was built on the separation of church and state and that all people are equal without exception. Panelist and UNC law professor Maxine Eichner stressed the importance of educating voters. It would be a travesty for this amendment to pass if voters are

Before Fridays meet against No. 13 Maryland, North Carolina redshirt senior wrestler Kyle Kiss was diagnosed with a torn ligament in his thumb and was told that he was done wrestling, coach C.D. Mock said. Kiss not only went on to wrestle that night against the No. 2 wrestler in his weight class but he chose to compete in Saturdays meet against Navy, too. UNC lost to the ACC-leading Terrapins 25-10 and fell to the Midshipmen 25-12 at Carmichael Arena, but Kiss toughness typified UNCs attitude for the weekend a resilient, never-say-die mindset that left the team with something to build upon as it enters the last two months of the season. It was an inspiration to all of us and demonstrative of why hes a team captain, C.D. Mock said. To try to wrestle without a thumb is remarkable. The final scores of the two meets were nearly identical, but the momentum in each was anything but. In Fridays contest, Maryland (13-0, 3-0 ACC) put UNC (2-13, 1-3) on its back foot from the start. In the first match of the night the heavyweight division No. 8 Spencer Myers pinned UNC freshman Frank Abbondanza in 1:39 to give the Terrapins an early 6-0 lead. The six-point margin was the closest the Tar Heels came to Maryland for the rest of the night. In Saturdays meet, on the other hand, UNC led for the majority of the contest before
dth/spencer herlong Redshirt senior Kyle Kiss tries to take down his opponent. Kiss wrestled both Friday and Saturday despite a torn ligament in his thumb.
Navy (5-6) reeled off five straight victories and 18 consecutive points to claim the win. Aside from Kiss grittiness, the weekend did offer some bright spots for the Tar Heels. No. 19 Corey Mock continued his winning streak in the 157pound division Friday night by defeating No. 11 Kyle John 11-2. His run was at seven in a row before he fell in his match against Navy. Zac Bennett pinned his 197pound Navy opponent in 1:34 on Saturday and went toe-to-toe with No. 5 Christian Boley in a loss on Friday. Bennett said his work in practice was a major reason he was able to secure the pin. After I got the takedown secured, I knew that I was going to have to break the guy down. Thats something Ive been working on a lot with the coaches
getting the guy flat before I go for the pin, he said. I broke him down once. Whenever you feel like you can get the pin, youve got to just go for it. And I went for it and it all worked out good. Freshman No. 20 Evan Henderson and redshirt senior Thomas Ferguson also had strong weekends for the Tar Heels. Henderson won both of his matches while Ferguson was 1-1, the loss coming by two points to Navys only ranked wrestler. It was Kiss, Ferguson and fellow senior Brock LiVorios last regular-season home meets. They were all honored in a ceremony before Saturdays contest. Redshirt senior Nick Tenpenny was also honored at the ceremony but did not wrestle this weekend. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com. the last time that happened, Marshall said. UNCs defensive play set up open shots from long range. Many of the shots were made when the Yellow Jackets struggled to find shooters in transition. When we have an advantage going down there, they have to make a choice if they want to stop me, stop the bigs or stop the wings, Marshall said. They kept leaving the wings open.

minutes that UNC was able to surge ahead for good, led by junior Tierra Ruffin-Pratt. The guard drove the lane, hit a layup and was fouled with three minutes remaining. Upon seeing her shot drop through the net, Ruffin-Pratt emitted a primal yell. The release of energy and aggression did not stop there as Ruffin-Pratt added seven points to her career-high 21 points in the final three minutes. Ruffin-Pratts contribution added to UNCs 11-6 scoring advantage to close out the game. Shegog was also a source of steady scoring for the Tar Heels, adding 19 points. In a game that boiled down to fine details, UNC emerged victorious. I feel like we played hard tonight, Petersen said. But we didnt play well enough to beat Carolina tonight and thats the only team that we were playing. This was a winnable game against a very good team. At the end of the day, we just needed to make one or two more shots and get one or two more rebounds. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com.

I like to think my hands are good enough that I can catch the tough passes. Its something that John does a fantastic job of getting the ball somewhere where I can catch it, and then Ive got to be able to make a play from there. Harrison Barnes led all scorers with 23 points on a strong shoot-
ing performance. Barnes was 8-for-14 including a perfect 3-for3 from long range. Barnes was effective with the one-dribble pull-up, but of his six misses, Williams said they were mostly the result of poor decision making. Every time (Barnes) attacked the basket in the first half, it was a bad play, Williams said. Hes 4-for-8 at half and one circus shot he made, the other three were wide open. Those werent very good decisions. Second half we called a play for him out of bounds to shoot
the three, and the guy came up on him and he went by him and dunked it. Williams drew the ire of the referees early in the second half and was hit with a technical foul. The Tar Heels responded by sending home back-to-back emphatic dunks by Zeller and Reggie Bullock to give UNC a 21-point lead. The Yellow Jackets called timeout to stop the run, but they could never cut the UNC lead back to single digits. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com.

swimming
UNC graduate and former varsity swimmer. When I swam, we never beat them. Now, the shoe is on the other foot. But one accomplishment that has eluded UNC in recent memory is an ACC title. For this group of swimmers, that goal takes precedence over any rivalry. With the men atop the ACC and the women in third, UNCs chances at a title seem as good as ever. Still, DeSelm remains wary. The dual meet is a very different animal, he said. Championship meets require, in addition to a strong front line, depth. The Tar Heel coaching staff intentionally scheduled back-toback meets to get a feel for how a long-haul championship meet would wear on the team. But on Saturdays Senior Day, UNCs seniors couldnt keep a certain emotional aspect from
The dual meet is a very different animal. Championship meets require ... depth.

mingling with their businesslike approach to the weekends competition. For senior Evan Reed, swimmings immersing lifestyle will be the hardest thing to leave behind. As freshmen were taken from our families and what were comfortable with and put in an environment were not used to, he said. That creates a family mentality. We do everything together. Its going to be hard next year knowing that I wont have that support that Ive had, and that I wont be around my best friends that Ive had for four years. Senior Wil Singley said hes trying to appreciate the little things as his swimming career comes to a close. Its bittersweet, he said. As
a senior, youre doing the same things that youve done the previous three years, but everythings the last time. ... Youre really trying not to take it for granted. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com.

again, didnt go in, but I think if Im hitting that shot Im helping my team out. For the rest of the game, Marshall helped his team in his natural fashion as he finished with 12 assists, seven points and just one turnover. As a team, the Yellow Jackets had just nine assists. Kendall sets the tone because he is a very much a giving point guard whos trying to get the ball to guys, Williams said. But Marshall wasnt the only Tar Heel spreading the ball around, and that was most apparent just about five minutes into the second half. After pulling down the defensive rebound, Marshall led the break and hit John Henson with a no-look dish in traffic. Instead of going to the hoop with it, Henson dropped a nolook pass of his own over his
The North Carolina mens basketball team was making things looks easy from the start of its ACC matchup with Georgia Tech. For coach Roy Williams, it was almost too easy. Things looked easy early, and that always scares me to death because Ive never seen anything where it was easy the entire game, Williams said. In the first few minutes everybody is passing; were making threes; were making dunks; Zs running and that kind of thing. After making the first shot of UNCs 93-81 win, Kendall Marshall nearly racked up a dollars worth of dimes before the break, giving the Tar Heels a 20-point advantage 20 minutes into the game. Marshall said that was the first time hed opened the game with a 3-pointer since middle school. It felt good just to get my confidence going, he said. Took the second one, felt good

When Dexter Strickland tore his ACL, North Carolina knew its defense would take a hit. But what the Tar Heels miss on defense, they make up for with more minutes for more accomplished 3-point shooters. In Sundays game against Georgia Tech, those increased minutes turned into more production from long range. The Tar Heels drained 10 3-pointers on a season-high 62.5 percent 3-point shooting rate in their 93-81 victory against the Yellow Jackets. UNC started the game with a bang from deep, hitting three
3-pointers before the first timeout. Dexter has the ability to attack, coach Roy Williams said. Reggie (Bullock) and P.J. (Hairston) have an ability to attack, but its from the 3-point line. Were good shooters, we really are. Ive said the whole time that when we started making them, it would make things even a lot prettier. Five Tar Heels sunk longrange shots, including backup point guard Stilman White. The freshman used a hesitation move that took Pierre Jordan to the ground and then nailed a three from the top. The basket caused a roar in the Smith Center crowd. I think they want to see the short white boy go out and hit

Senior Tyler Zeller (top) sends one through the hoop with authority for two of his 17 points Sunday night. Point guard Kendall Marshall (bottom left) had 12 assists in a team-high 31 minutes.

WINSTON-SALEM With 4.2 seconds remaining in the first half of North Carolinas 75-71 win, an expected Wake Forest cheer erupted from the Demon Deacon faithful. Not willing to let the home crowd get the last word, UNC senior Chay Shegog countered, inciting a Tar Heels cheer that soon spread through the fans decked out in light blue. Its definitely a good atmosphere to play in, Shegog said. Any ACC atmosphere is like that. With the whole Tar Heel chant, the whole Wake Forest thing was throwing me off, so I had to get our team back in it. The fierce battle between fan
bases was not the only one in Lawrence Joel Coliseum, as the UNC and Wake Forest womens basketball teams traded leads all afternoon before UNC sealed the win. Entering the contest, six teams separated Wake Forest and UNC in ACC rankings, but the two teams looked evenly matched in a game that saw 17 lead changes and 11 ties. Wake Forest got an early jump on UNC, pushing out to a 8-0 lead before Krista Gross gave UNC its first points with just less than 16 minutes remaining in the first half. Im not sure if it was what they were doing, or if it was what we were doing to ourselves, UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell said. They were doubling down some in there on
Chay. But we werent getting our cuts in our offense and everything. They kept mixing up the defenses. I dont think we were attacking. I think in the last 10 to 12 minutes we started attacking better against their press. Both teams shot well, but the difference was in secondchance points. Wake Forest only converted eight second-chance points while the Tar Heels earned 23. Their first shots didnt beat us, but their second shots did, Wake Forest coach Mike Petersen said. (Laura) Broomfield had (seven) offensive rebounds in the second half. She was a monster in there, and we didnt do a good enough job of getting her out of there. On the day, Broomfield finished with 20 points and 18 rebounds. It wasnt until the final three

For most varsity athletes at North Carolina, beating Duke would be ample cause for a night of celebration. But by the time UNCs swimmers left Dukes Taishoff Aquatic Center, victory in tow, their next meet lay less than 14 hours ahead back in Chapel Hill. A number of solid performances might have helped them rest a little easier. Divers Jenna Moore and David MacDonald both placed first at the one-meter height and second at three meters at Duke. Steve Cebertowicz took the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events in addition to anchoring UNCs
winning 400-yard freestyle relay team. UNCs Kelsey Cummings, Danielle Siverling and Jackie Rudolph swept the top three spots in the 500-yard freestyle. While both of his teams won handily at Duke the men 165121 and the women 178-111 coach Rich DeSelm said he didnt see the same inspiration he saw last week against Virginia. And any flatness Friday was only compounded by fatigue on Saturday. UNC split the meet with the Wolfpack, as the Tar Heel women prevailed, 178.5-119.5, and the men fell, 151.5-145.5. UNCs men hadnt lost to N.C. State in 12 years. But that figure is, in one respect, a sign of how far the program has come. When I was a swimmer, and for years prior to that, N.C. State was a top-10 team in the country, said DeSelm, a 78
