FAITH HEDGEPETH HOMICIDE

Hedgepeth Voting rights debate evolves


case reaches
3-year mark
unanswered
The community remembers
Faith Hedgepeths life
as police still seek leads.
By Rachel Herzog
Senior Writer

Sometimes, Roland Hedgepeth goes to


Durham and visits the woman who lived
below his daughter in her Hawthorne at
the View apartment.
He stands alone in the bedroom,
which is directly below the room that
belonged to his daughter Faith when she
was a junior at UNC.
This is as close as he can get to her.
Ive always been told that time heals
everything, he said. Time just teaches
you to deal with it.

This is not a cold case


On the morning of Sept. 7, 2012, Faith
Hedgepeth, a biology major three weeks
shy of her 20th birthday, was found dead
in her apartment.
Three years later, her family and the
community are still searching for answers.
The Chapel Hill Police Department
and the North Carolina State Bureau of
Investigation continue to investigate her
death as a homicide.
On Friday, they renewed their appeal
for information from the public.
This is not a cold case, the press
release said. It has been and remains an
active investigation.
Thats what theyve told Roland
Hedgepeth, but he said police dont tell
him about day-to-day work on the case.
It could just be an empty statement,
he said. I guess I just choose to believe
them.

Three years and no answers


In September 2014, police released
an autopsy confirming Faith Hedgepeth
was beaten to death but by whom, or
for what reason, remains unknown.
DNA evidence found at the crime
scene points to an unknown male assailant, police say, but authorities have not
found a match for the DNA profile amid
the hundreds of samples they have on file.
They have good evidence. They just
dont have someone to tie it to, Roland
Hedgepeth said.
Roland Hedgepeth said he has had
multiple investigators work on the case,
without any luck.
For Faiths older sister, Rolanda
Hedgepeth, the sum of three years and
no answers is a lot of frustration and
confusion.
Its hard not knowing a lot of things,
she said. It makes your mind run more.
You run every scenario through your head.
Thats what you do when you dont know.

Keeping Faith
Rolanda Hedgepeth said its gotten too
hard for her to go anywhere near Chapel
Hill or Durham, but she hopes the people
there dont forget about her sister.
I just hope they remember that she
loved Carolina and dont forget what
happened to her, she said.
Faith Hedgepeth attended UNC on
a Gates Millennium Scholarship and
dreamed of becoming a pediatrician. A
member of the Haliwa-Saponi American
Indian tribe, she participated in several
American Indian organizations on campus, including the Carolina Indian Circle
and the Unheard Voices a cappella group.
Amy Locklear Hertel, director of the
American Indian Center at UNC, said
the center will host a luncheon later in
September with the Carolina Indian Circle
to celebrate Faiths life and raise money for
the scholarship given in her name.
We are moving the date to later in the
month so we are remembering Faith closer to her birthdate rather than her death
date, Hertel said in an email.
Roland Hedgepeth said its comforting to know that campus organizations
continue to remember Faith.
I dont want her memory to be lost,
he said. I dont want her legacy to be
forgotten the legacy of a young girl
from nowhere fighting against the odds
to make something of herself, and her
life being cut short.

Voter ID law still faces pushback after legislative changes


By Grant Masini
Staff Writer

Fifty years after the Voting Rights Act of


1965 passed, some fear North Carolinas voting practices have begun to regress.
The North Carolina legislature introduced its
contentious voter ID law in 2013, spurring the
U.S. Department of Justice, the N.C. NAACP
and the American Civil Liberties Union to sue
the state on accusations of discriminatory intent.
But before a conclusion on its legality could be
reached, state lawmakers stepped in.
Legislators amended the law this summer
to allow voters who demonstrate a reasonable

impediment for not having an ID to cast a


provisional ballot, after which an alternative
form of ID will still be required.
Now, state and national activists await a
decision from the courts.
Leah Aden, assistant counsel at the Legal
Defense Fund, which works for racial justice, said voter disenfranchisement has only
evolved since the Voting Rights Act.
When those tools (of disenfranchisement)
were put down, new ones arose in the form of
voter ID laws, she said.
North Carolina will join more than 30
states requiring some form of ID at the polls
when the law goes into effect in 2016. Seven

of those states mandate photo ID, while the


rest grant exceptions for acceptable excuses or
nonphoto ID.
North Carolina lawmakers have defined
reasonable impediments as including issues
with transportation to the polls, a lack of documentation and family responsibilities.
George Eppsteiner, staff attorney at the
Southern Coalition for Social Justice, said the
debate over photo ID continues in both state
and federal courts.
The federal case, which is pending, went to
trial in July regarding the far-reaching changes

Pope takes forgiving stance on abortion


The Pope granted priests
permission to forgive
abortions for Holy Year.
By Marisa Bakker
Senior Writer

Pope Francis has announced an


arbitrary Holy Year and granted
priests worldwide the authority
to absolve sins of abortion but
many U.S. and Canadian Catholic
churches already maintain the
practice.
The Holy Year of Mercy a
Catholic tradition that begins Nov.
29 offers special indulgences for
believers sins.
May priests fulfill this great task

by expressing words of genuine


welcome combined with a reflection that explains the gravity of the
sin committed, besides indicating
a path of authentic conversion by
which to obtain the true and generous forgiveness of the Father who
renews all with his presence, Pope
Francis said in his letter to the
Archbishop Rino Fisichella.
The Popes decision to grant all
priests the authority to absolve
sins of abortion will not change
Catholic doctrine, and will only be
in place until the end of the Holy
Year in Nov. 2016.
The idea of a Holy Year is when
we ask, How do we invite people
back in the Church who might
have drifted away? said Michael
Lasky, pastor and campus minister

at UNC Newman Catholic Student


Center Parish.
The Holy Year typically only
comes once every 25 to 50 years,
with the most recent in 2000.
Pope Francis is just pulling this
one out of nowhere, Lasky said.
Not nowhere its somewhere
in his heart but he has seen so
much of the suffering that people
carry in the world and hes saying,
Lets bring everybody home.
Pope Francis said in his letter
that women should be given an
opportunity to repent.
I have met so many women
who bear in their heart the scar of
this agonizing and painful decision, he said.
But in the U.S. and Canada,
priests already have the author-

ity or faculty, described by the


Pope said David Hains, spokesman for the Catholic Diocese of
Charlotte.
In the Catholic Church, a person
who has an abortion or participates
in an abortion commits this very
serious, very grave sin, Hains said.
During the Holy Year of Mercy,
all priests will have the authority
to absolve someone who comes to
them and confesses to this sin.
He said the Catholic Church
revised Canonical law in 1983 to
give priests the authority to absolve
higher-order sins, including abortion. Before 1983, this faculty was
within bishops jurisdiction, though
they could grant priests the power

Joke candidates ood ling for 2016 elections


The ease of filing for a bid
has drawn 2,000 hopefuls
for the U.S.s highest office.
By Joe Martin
Staff Writer

More than 2,000 individuals,


including potential independent
candidates Deez Nuts and Sydneys
Voluptuous Buttocks, have filed
statements of candidacy for the
2016 presidential election more
than double the number of statements filed in 2012.
Some suggest the ease of filing with the Federal Election
Commission inspired new potential
candidates, real or otherwise.
Judith Ingram, spokeswoman
for the FEC, said anyone can fill
out FEC Form 2 also known as a
statement of candidacy but the
person is not considered a candidate until meeting other criteria.
They dont become a candidate
until theyve actually raised $5,000
in addition to announcing candidacy, Ingram said. So that would
be the trigger for us in determin-

ing what is a real candidate, but


it doesnt necessarily mean all the
rest are what you would call fake
candidates.
In most cases, hopefuls must
then meet requirements beyond
the FECs to be added to the ballot,
said Geoffrey Skelley, spokesman
for the University of Virginias
Center for Politics. These requirements also help separate fake candidates from real ones, he said.
Just because youve filed Form
2 with the FEC doesnt mean that
youre actually going to be on the
ballot, because every state has different ballot qualifications, Skelley
said. Most of them involve either
paying a filing fee or getting enough
signatures in that state to be on the
ballot, or some combination of that.
So, of course all of these joke candidates are never going to do it.
Since the Deez Nuts story broke
in late July, more than 500 statements of candidacy have been filed.
After July 28 in 2012, just 19
candidates filed in that period after
that point. And in 2008, just 14
filed, Skelley said. Clearly something is going on, and Im sure its
the fact that that storys gotten so

much coverage, and that inspired


other people to take advantage of
the relatively easy process.
One candidate that has begun
the filing process is Dot Com A
Wandrlustr a candidate for the
Prohibition Party and the first-ever
website to register its candidacy.
John Hunt, a travel writer and
filmmaker who runs the blog
WandrLustr, said his friend registered his blog with the FEC to help
attract new readers. He said his
friend, inspired by Mitt Romneys
2011 quote, Corporations are people, my friend, suggested that his
website should run for president.
I thought he was kind of joking at first, but then he sent me an
email with all of the paperwork
filled out, Hunt said.
His friend suggested altering the
name to draw more attention to
the website on the FEC list.
He said he put an A in front of
it to top the list. Obviously people
arent going to cast their votes for
a website, he said. But people
might say, Look, what is going on
here? What are these guys doing?

Who all has filed to run


for president in 2016?

SafeWalk
gets back
on right
foot
After resolving debt from
last school year, SafeWalk
returns to regular hours.
By Colleen Moir
Senior Writer

get to know them on a very personal level and be there when they
need them, Martin said.
She said she hopes bigs will act
as mentors and support systems for
their littles throughout life changes
such as choosing a major, applying to
jobs or coming out. Bigs are expected
to spend time with their littles at
least once a week. Soare and her big
have already gotten lunch together.
Both Soare and Danielle Bruce,
a freshman SAGA member, are
excited about the big-little program. Soare and Bruce said they
are looking forward to having a
friend who is able to help them
adjust to life on campus.
I thought it was a really cool
process, Bruce said. I am excited
to have a friend who can answer all
my questions.

Would you like a SafeWalk?


Students leaving libraries tonight
will hear this question for the first time
this semester.
SafeWalk, which is student-run and
University-funded, provides employees
to help students get home safely. They
are stationed outside Davis Library and
the Undergraduate Library and are
available by request from 11 p.m. until 3
a.m. Sunday through Thursday.
Felicity Welch, SafeWalks program
director, said the program is important
because of the feeling of security it
offers to students.
Its not necessarily about providing
safety on campus, but its about providing comfort, Welch said. One thing we
say is that even if you dont feel unsafe
walking home, were someone to talk to.
The group hasnt operated for the past
three weeks because its been in a period
of transition: instead of receiving funding from student government, SafeWalk
now receives funding from UNC.
During the 2014-15 school year,
SafeWalk dealt with $20,000 of debt.
Its resolved now. Were very comfortable in our funding, Welch said.
SafeWalk currently employs six people a low number that has partially
contributed to their delay in service.
It would be very difficult for me and
the five other employees to cover all the
shifts, said Daniel Salgado, program
manager of SafeWalk. People would be
working more than two or three nights
a week to cover all those.
Salgado said since employee turnover
has been a problem, the office is looking
to hire around an additional 14 people.
When we recruit new SafeWalkers,
we try to make it clear that these arent
normal hours for a job, Salgado said.
Some people realize that being up until
three in the morning isnt sustainable
when you have early classes.
Welch said she looks forward to new
opportunities for SafeWalk this year
with a more stable source of funding.
Were going through a change right
now, figuring out how much were
spending, Welch said. With the change
weve been undergoing, we want to make
sure SafeWalk is off on the right foot.
Sophomore Bryan Labra said he
thinks the service SafeWalk offers is vital.
I feel pretty safe here, Labra said.
Not everyone has the same sense of
security.
Junior Bri Sikorski agreed with the
importance of SafeWalks role on campus.
It can be kind of sketchy walking
places at night, especially off-campus,
Sikorski said. I usually try to avoid going
home at night so I dont feel unsafe.
Salgado said the number of walks
requested rose after acts of violence in
the Chapel Hill community, including
the death of professor Feng Liu in July
2014 and the deaths of Deah Barakat,
Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha and Razan
Mohammad Abu-Salha in February.
Those (acts of violence) harmed the
perspective of safety on campus because
people feel jeopardized, Salgado said.
Following events like that, its important for SafeWalk to be here on campus
so people can feel safe.

The Dozen Doughnut Dash began at the Old Well on Friday morning. Participants ran 2 miles, ate a dozen doughnuts and then ran another 1 miles.

Doughnut dash raises heart rates, sugar levels, donations


By Ashlen Renner
Senior Writer

The smell of sugary glaze filled the air as the


first of the 480-dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts
were unpacked.
To spectators, the smell was mouth-watering, but to the racers of the fifth annual Dozen
Doughnut Dash, it was the last thing they
wanted to think about.
After running 2 miles, more than 370 racers gorged on doughnuts and continued another mile and a half. Only about 70 completed the
challenge.
For the first 2 miles, we ran like we normally would, said Doo Park, a UNC student
and member of the cross-country club. I
heard about strategies for eating the doughnuts, like crushing them together. I thought I
would be out of there in three minutes, but it
ended up being like 10. It was harder than I
thought.
This years dash raised more than $5,000 for
the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer
Center. Jake Mendys, president of the event,
said its planning presented a new challenge
this year.
This year is different because we had so

The bite after doughnut nine is


pure agony, but Im really proud
I was a part of this. I think a lot
of people know about us now.
Ty Fenton
co-founder of the Dozen Doughnut Dash

little time to prepare, he said. We started


recruiting (runners) the first day of school, and
now its the first weekend of September. We
started planning last spring, so this represents
five months of work.
New challenges emerged when the Krispy
Kreme on Franklin Street went out of business.
Mendys said he placed the order for the doughnuts from a Krispy Kreme in Durham and took
several cars to transport the boxes on the morning of the race.
Ty Fenton, a dash co-founder and participant, said that despite challenges, the event has
tripled in turnout in the past five years.
The bite after doughnut nine is pure agony,
but Im really proud I was a part of this, he
said. I think people know about us now, and
we have become a part of campus.

Rashawn King, a senior at N.C. Central


University and a leukemia survivor, spoke with
the runners before the race.
I love coming out and speaking, especially
for people fighting for the cause, he said.
It takes a toll on you because its very emotional, but you need to tell, because cancer
is real. It tears me apart because it brings
back memories, but people need to hear that
theyre not alone.
Mendys said that the racers his team recruited werent just running for the doughnuts.
Yeah, its cardio and its running and eating doughnuts, but we do it for people like
Rashawn and other cancer survivors, Mendys
said. People do it for the purpose of the event.
My entrepreneurship professor always said
you can do anything if you make profit with a
purpose.
After the race, many vowed not to eat
another doughnut again at least until next
year.
Running on a full stomach of doughnuts
is not fun, but its fun to run for a cause, Park
said. I guess I enjoyed how much I didnt enjoy
the race.

Sexuality and Gender Alliance gets bigs


SAGA launched its big-little
program to acclimate
new students to UNC.
By Maria Prokopowicz
Staff Writer

The Sexuality and Gender


Alliance introduced a little program
to their club this year, but members
hope it will have a big impact.
Experienced SAGA members are
now pairing up with freshmen in
big-little relationships to help integrate freshmen into the LGBTQ
community at UNC.
Acclimating to being a first-year
and being a part of the queer community, we wanted to help with
that transition, SAGA President
Lauren Martin said.
Martin said she was looking for

non-freshmen or first-year transfers who are well connected to the


queer community at UNC to take
on the role of bigs. This could be
through SAGA or other activist
communities, or by being a major
or minor in sexuality studies.
The process of pairing bigs and
littles began two weeks ago with a
series of programs and events allowing the members of SAGA to get to
know each other in casual settings.
Members could attend as many or as
few events as they wanted.
It was actually a lot of fun,
freshman Kiralina Soare said. One
was a scavenger hunt that was fun
with games and another was essentially like speed dating.
The events were meant to allow
freshmen to get to know the older
members of SAGA so that by the end
of the week they were able to pick
out a big who seemed compatible

with them.
Members were paired first by
preference of the littles, then by
similarities in interests, majors and
career and life goals.
Martin said the LGBTQ community at UNC is spread out, which
can make it difficult for younger
students to find their places in it.
Soare said she is looking for a
close LGBTQ community.
In high school I had a pretty
close-knit queer community and it
was really important for me coming
out, having that safe space, Soare
said. So I wanted to recreate that in
college.
Martin said the goal of the program is to bring the network together and lessen the disconnect between
the new and experienced members
of UNCs queer community.
First and foremost, bigs should
act as a resource for their little and

Q&A with executive chef Teddy Diggs on cooking tips for students
The Il Palio restaurant at Chapel
Hills Siena Hotel might be undergoing renovations, but that hasnt
stopped executive chef Teddy Diggs
from keeping things fresh in the
kitchen until it reopens in midSeptember. Diggs spoke to senior
writer Rachel Herzog about making
the perfect lasagna and how college
students can move beyond ramen
noodles.
THE DAILY TAR HEEL: Whats your favorite dish to cook?
TEDDY DIGGS: Its always changing.
Right now, I really lose sleep with
pleasure at night over this lasagna
were making. The pasta layers
are rolled very thin and theres the
traditional ragu, bolognese and
besciamella, and its just layered for
50 layers. Its rich, its everything
you want it to be. Its not like any
lasagna youve ever had, but it will
remind you of every lasagna youve
had before.
DTH: Fifty layers? Really?
TD: Yeah! We try to get as many as
we can, but the pan only fits about
50. When youre talking about

Italian cooking, its all about balancing ingredients. At a lot of places,


youll see a three-layer lasagna, and
the layers are like this thick, but
theres no balance, so our noodles
are real paper-thin, the ragu is spotted out, the besciamella is just a thin
layer and theres no tomato sauce
until we plate it. Its a big lasagna,
but each layer is paper-thin.

a leftover pasta, or something fresh,


or just a simple sauce with oil and
cheese. A pesto tomato sauce is so
easy to make with canned tomatoes,
or if you buy your own tomato sauce,
just mixing it and just understanding not to overdo it and try to put
too much into it, but just keeping
it nice and simple, and doing that
more frequently.

DTH: What are your cooking tips for


college students?

DTH: So practice is important, too.

TD: Just understand that its all about


balancing the ingredients and dont
try to use too much of one ingredient. I think a lot of people when
they start off cooking, they think
that they need a lot of things to get
things done, but really, in the beginning stages of cooking, or even now
as a professional, its about simplicity and using fewer ingredients.
Especially in college its about
utilizing what you have. If its something like a pasta, you can pretty
much put anything in the pasta, and
theres so many different types of
pastas that youre never going to get
bored with it.
Pasta is so inexpensive that you
really could take leftovers and make

TD: I think a lot of people, when they


start to cook, sometimes they try
to do too much, but if you do just
enough, and you do it every night,
itll start to add up. Instead of trying to do a big meal, just do a garlic
bread and a simple pasta. The next
night, try something else. The more
you are in the kitchen, the more
youll be able to do. It takes practice,
just like anything else.
It doesnt take a lot to make a
nice, tasty, delicious meal. Learn
basic sauces, work with inexpensive
but versatile ingredients so eggs
and pasta. Eggs are tremendous
because theyre super cheap and you
can do a million things with them,
and theyre very good and filling. So
keeping it simple and just working

with the ingredients that are accessible to you. I think everyone should
have dried pasta, right?
DTH: Whats your favorite thing about
cooking?
TD: I like making people happy. A lot
of times, people who arent in the
industry dont really understand,

but when they say, I bet you eat a


lot of your own food, they assume
that I eat what I cook. Actually the
more I cook the less I eat, because
Im not thinking of it as me eating.
Im not doing it for the pleasure of
myself, Im doing it for the pleasure
of others.

The Daily Tar Heel

Town comes alive in textile art exhibit


A new FRANK show,
CH, NC 27514, honors
Chapel Hill landmarks.
By Morgan Vickers
Senior Writer

A picture might be worth


a thousand words, but the
memories of Chapel Hill are
woven into Elaine ONeils
textile art.
My inspiration is the sense
of place, she said. The emotional connections we have
are with special places where
life happens.
ONeils art exhibit, CH,
NC 27514, premieres today
at FRANK Gallery and runs
through Oct. 4.
The exhibit, a collection
of hand-sewn textile designs,
centers on her experiences in
Chapel Hill. Although she is
originally from Maine, ONeil
considers Chapel Hill her new
hometown.
CH, NC 27514, the largest exhibit to date for the
FRANK Gallery founding
artist, not only features con-

temporary Chapel Hill landmarks, but also popular locations from the past places
that ONeil believes UNC
students from the past four
decades would recognize.
Luna Lee Ray, FRANK
Gallerys curator, said visitors
have enjoyed ONeils past
artwork.
I cant tell you how many
people have come in, and
theyve seen a scene from the
University or a scene from
Franklin Street, and they stop
because theyre entranced as
if they saw a photograph they
recognized, she said. Its so
much better than a photograph because its got all of
her color and artistic interpretation.
ONeils art will be joined
by work from four other
artists: Peg Bachenheimer,
Gordon Jameson, Noah
Riedel and Eric Knoche.
Jameson, who founded
FRANK Gallery with ONeil
and six other artists, said that
despite differing styles, each
artist highlights the work
done in the gallery and out in
the community.

Our engagement with


whats happening outside the
gallery is about as important
as whats happening in it,
Jameson said.
ONeil said that community engagement is a key element of her artwork.
Over the past six years,
ONeil has created the annual
Luv This Place calendar,
which features photographs
of ONeils textile depictions
of various North Carolina
locales. Each year, a percentage of the calendars
proceeds goes directly to the
Lineberger Comprehensive
Cancer Center at the North
Carolina Cancer Hospital.
The calendar has raised more
than $23,000 for cancer
research so far.
ONeil also illustrated the
book Goodnight Carolina,
which was inspired by the
unique experiences she had
raising her children in Chapel
Hill.
Lauren Baker, a senior, recognized ONeils artwork from
various places in Chapel Hill
like Bulls Head Bookshop
and at Johnny T-shirt.

The pictures are very


homey and nostalgic, she
said. (Goodnight Carolina)
is the type of story that if
Id grown up here Id
imagine my parents reading

to me as a kid.
ONeil said she hopes to
evoke the same nostalgia and
connection to Chapel Hill for
all who view her exhibit at
FRANK over the next month.

Each person who lives


in Chapel Hill adds to the
flavor and fabric75004
of life here,

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Teddy Diggs, on the 50-layer lasagna he makes at Il Palio

Alex Thomas

hen Alec Dent a


UNC freshman
and writer for The
College Fix claimed the
first-year seminar, English 72:
Literature of 9/11, presented
terrorists in a sympathetic light
despite not being enrolled in the
course or even reading any of its
assigned books, that was bad.
When media organizations
broadcast Dents claims without mentioning readings in
the course honoring those lost
on Sept. 11, that made matters
worse.
But the most unfortunate
moment of last weeks spectacle
was when the UNC College
Republicans, along with the
Carolina Review magazine and
Christians United for Israel at
UNC, started a petition asking Chancellor Carol Folt to
condemn the course, saying the
readings desecrate thevictims of the Sept. 11 attacks.
The College Republicans
later posted on Facebook about
Dent, who recently joined the
organization, and the national
attention his article received.
All of America now knows
that there is a class here that
presents literature justifying
the terrorists who committed
9/11, the post said.
If there is one thing I detest
most about our culture, it is
the sharp political division that
has engulfed us as a result of
biased media outlets, parties
and their supporters trying to
prove their side as superior.
All sides right, left and
in-between spin items to fit
their agenda, distracting even
engaged citizens and leaving
us with less clarity.
It is a world I unfortunately
took part in as a member of the
Carolina Review for the last
three years. At one point, I even
argued this university went out
of its way to deter conservatives
from being active in campus
conversations.
But as I became more
informed, I learned that is not
the case. Despite a few questionable instances, there is not
enough substantial evidence to
prove universities overall are
trying to restrain conservatism.
But that has not stopped
conservatives at UNC from
believing this university is
out to get them. This includes
claims made in February saying University administrators
left out conservative organizations from a campus dinner
due to their political views.
However, none of the
groups who attended had a
partisan ideology, with invites
being sent to identity-based
groups such as those focused
on race and fraternity affairs.
No correction was given by
conservatives following that
detail being noted.
Dent and The College
Fix should apologize for
this article, and the College
Republicans, Carolina Review
and CUFI must follow for their
promotion of a petition built
on hack claims.
The members of those campus groups should pressure
their leadership to apologize,
especially after they failed to
correct themselves as facts
stacked against them.
It is sad we have to remind
ourselves that political opinion does not provide justification for dishonesty. When
you do, you are not making
your argument more appealing; you are just making our
democracy worse.

EDITORIAL

Diversity in teaching
UNC should expand
its efforts to hire
a diverse faculty.

ake a moment and


think about your
past professors,
advisers and mentors.
Were they mostly white
and male?
The answer to this
question is probably yes;
according to some measures as reported by the
Office of Diversity and
Multicultural Affairs
Diversity Plan, 9.4 percent
of the faculty in fall 2013
were underrepresented
minorities, e.g., AfricanAmerican, Hispanic or
American Indian. Of
the faculty, 79.7 percent
were white. Moreover, of
67 total campus leaders
(associate deans and higher), 59 of them were white.
Despite the presence of
some underrepresented
faculty and leaders on
campus and commendable
efforts to increase diversity,
there needs to be more.
Both UNC and individual academic departments
should expand their efforts
to make the faculty of the
University better reflect the
student body.

Having diverse faculty


encourages students from
underrepresented backgrounds to consider what
they can become without
being hindered by the burdens of prejudice.
UNC began efforts to
diversify faculty back in
1983 when the Carolina
Postdoctoral Program
for Faculty Diversity was
established. The program
aims to facilitate tenuretrack appointments of
underrepresented groups.
Similarly, the UNC School
of Medicines Simmons
Scholar Program, established in 1994, seeks to
diversify faculty within the
School of Medicine.
Additionally, the
Provosts Target of
Opportunity Diversity
Initiative of 2001 has further contributed to the
increase of faculty diversity.
Recently, Patricia
Parker, the new communication department
chair, raised an excellent
question about the kind of
culture created when leaders look like some of their
students, but not all.
The aforementioned
programs and initiatives
have facilitated a significant increase of underrep-

resented minority faculty.


Between 2003 and 2012,
the percentage of underrepresented assistant
professors was on the rise
at UNC. Asian faculty
increased to 14.8 percent
from 12.1 percent, AfricanAmerican faculty to 7.3
percent from 5.3 percent,
Hispanic faculty to 6.4
percent from 2.6 percent
and Native American faculty to 1.4 percent from
0.5 percent.
These increases are
heartening, and the
University is making positive steps, but the school
hasnt solidified a diverse
faculty whose racial,
ethnic, gender, sexual
orientation and religious
background reflects the
diverse student body
which itself is not reflective
enough of North Carolinas
young people.
No student should
feel alienated by the lack
of representation in an
aspired career field, nor
should a student feel burdened by the need to be a
trailblazer. UNC has a real
opportunity to provide
inspiration to students by
providing a more diverse
field of professors that students can relate to.

TO THE EDITOR:
Every year after the fall
semester starts, I overhear
several complaints about
riding the bus. One of the
most common is that taking
the bus can be annoying and
crowded. It would be transformative if (free) bus rides
were viewed as an opportunity to be considerate and to
connect with others.
I have met a number
of incredible people that I
would not have met or gotten to know otherwise while
commuting, including a
saxophone player, a single
mother getting her degree at
UNC and even a couple that
work in the same building
as me.
A more disturbing complaint I hear is that homeless
people ride the bus. This
seems ignorant and selfish
to me. Free transportation is
a fundamental vehicle (pun
intended) for disadvantaged
people and provides a means
to reach basic needs, like
grocery stores and medical care. Furthermore, free
buses enable this population
to reach job appointments
and to improve its quality
of life.
If we stopped viewing
free transportation with
other people as a nuisance
and instead considered it a
blessing and an opportunity
to cultivate a sense of community, it would make our
town a better place to live.

Article on dean search


was unbalanced
TO THE EDITOR:
The Daily Tar Heel
reported the five finalists
for the dean search for the
UNC College of Arts and
Sciences, which is clearly
exciting for UNC.
Unfortunately, the presentation of the candidates
was clearly unbalanced, as
it failed to mention any of
the long list of accolades of
the single internal candidate, Kevin Guskiewicz.
We think it would be
appropriate to briefly list a
few for fellow Tar Heel readers (brevity is difficult here).
Kevin is a world leader in
sports-induced concussions.
He has been awarded the
MacArthur Genius Award
for his research in this field.
He is a Kenan
Distinguished Professor,
Co-Director of the Matthew
Gfeller Sport-Related
Traumatic Brain Injury
Research Center and
Director of the Center for the
Study of Retired Athletes in
the Department of Exercise
and Sports Science. He has
published over 90 research
articles and has been
awarded numerous external
grants. Despite this strong
ongoing research career,
Kevins UNC service record
is impressive. He has served
as the Chairman of Exercise
and Sports Science, as well
as on the Administrative
Board of the College of Arts

and Sciences. Since 2013,


he has been serving as the
Senior Associate Dean for
Natural Sciences in the
College of Arts and Sciences.
During his tenure as
Senior Associate Dean,
Guskiewicz has helped make
outstanding faculty appointments for UNC and has
played an instrumental role
in retaining many of our star
faculty in the sciences who
are constantly being raided
by our competitors. As an
active faculty member of
this caliber, who is also willing to serve our university,
his achievements should not
go unrecognized.

Fedora is to blame for


loss against USC
TO THE EDITOR:
I read the articles in The
Daily Tar Heel and find
them a little off in terms of
our loss to South Carolina.
Yes, Marquise Williams
didnt have a good game but
the real reason we lost this
game is not Marquise it is
the poor play calling. I like
Fedora but please give us all
a break. You have a tailback
who is averaging over ten
yards a carry in a game and
he only is given the ball 12
times the entire game?
You are running out of
time, have three minutes
and 40 seconds left, and you
are on the 3-yard line with
third and fourth down left
to try to get in the end zone
and, if you get a touchdown,
to be ahead by three and you
choose to pass the ball by a
quarterback that is having
an off day?
You leave Hood on the
sidelines for this crucial
play? This is not a game
lost by Marquise frankly
speaking, this is a game lost
by Fedoras refusal to play
Hood more and to not use
him in those two downs. I
am quite sure we would
have garnered three yards
in two plays with him in.

DTH should adopt


gender-neutral style
TO THE EDITOR
Fridays editorial called
for teaching gender-sensitive
language in the classroom.
Perhaps The Daily Tar
Heel needs to reexamine its
own policies, as well.
Fridays edition was full of
gender-exclusive language:
councilman, spokesman
and spokeswoman, chairman, freshman, alumna.
Alternative words might be
councilor, spokesperson,
chair, first-year student and
former student.
As The Daily Tar Heel
noted, the University already
has a policy that stresses the
importance of using sensitive language in modern
writing. Ive always been
baffled by The Daily Tar
Heels long-standing insistence on ignoring this policy.

Free internet comes to Chapel Hill


Some public housing
residents will receive
AT&T U-verse service.
By Madeline Reich
Staff Writer

Latoya Mewborn, resident


of the Airport Gardens public
housing community, plans to
use her free AT&T U-verse
internet access to take online
classes to become a nurse.
Four of Chapel Hills 13
public housing communities have received free access
to AT&T U-verse internet
service and the town plans to
expand access.

Airport Gardens, Colony


Woods West, Caldwell/
Church Street and North
Columbia Street are public
housing neighborhoods that
received access from AT&T in
July for the next five years.
Four more public housing
neighborhoods are scheduled
to have access at no charge by
the end of 2015 Pritchard
Park, Eastwood, Rainbow
Heights and South Estes Drive.
The Town of Chapel Hill
is also working with Google
Fiber to provide internet
access, but plans have yet to
be finalized.
While Mewborn sees the
importance of internet access
in her own life, she doesnt

think its important for


everyone.
It depends on what youve
got going on with your life
(such as) people who have
jobs online or applying for
jobs online or taking classes,
she said.
Ross Tompkins, a Chapel
Hill business analyst, said six
months before the agreement
expires, the town and AT&T
will discuss extensions.
If an agreement cant
be reached, Tompkins said
alternatives include reaching
similar terms with another
service provider or transitioning residents away from the
free service.
Chapel Hill Mayor Mark

Kleinschmidt echoed the


importance of public housing
residents having access.
"(Carrboro) Mayor Lavelle
and I actually worked really
hard to make sure that AT&T
would provide services to our
public housing, he said. It
was a high priority for us.
Kleinschmidt said AT&T
and Google found Chapel Hill
attractive because of the number of residents interested in
participating, which gave the
town power when negotiating
with the companies.
Erica Swanson, the head of
community impact programs
for Google Fiber, said it is a
goal for the organization to
make internet more acces-

Its about having opportunities for their


children to access the internet...

Kleinschmidt said he and
Lavelle insisted on providing
internet access to residents in
public housing because they
will have the hardest time
accessing internet.
Its about having oppor-

tunities for their children to


access the internet to do homework and research, to be able
to search for job opportunities,
to be able to stay in communication with people around
the world and to be better
informed on whats going on
around the world, he said.
The things those of us
with internet access just take

University cuts water usage by 60 percent


UNC gets innovative
by recycling and
reclaiming water.
By Wei Zhou
Senior Writer

UNC has been greener in


the past few years.
The University reduced
its potable water use by 60
percent per square foot since
2000, despite seeing an
increase of more than 2,000
residential students.
Cindy Shea, director of the
UNC Sustainability Office,
said some new buildings on
campus collect rainwater for
toilet-flushing systems to cut

drinking water use.


Currently, the North
Carolina Botanical Garden
Visitor Center, Kenan
Memorial Stadium and
Genome Science Building are
using these systems to recycle
rainwater.
But when rainwater is
insufficient, the University
uses reclaimed water as a
backup.
UNC already uses
reclaimed water from the local
water and sewer authorities
for cooling at the five central
chilled plants on campus.
Shea said the University
is hoping to use similar systems on new buildings in
the future. And she said the
Universitys efforts to cut

water usage on campus have


been very successful.
We have a target of 20
percent, and we have already
exceeded that, she said.
UNCs usage reduction
helped earn it a rank of 15th
out of more than 150 participating colleges and universities in the Cool Schools
ranking by Sierra magazine,
a bimonthly periodical published by the Sierra Club, a
nationwide environmental
group.
Jamie Bartram, director
of the Water Institute at the
Gillings School of Global
Public Health, said the
University has done a good
job improving existing facilities to cut water use, despite

the age of many buildings on


campus.
Its important to recognize
we are an old campus, he
said. Weve got old buildings, and we have to adapt as
we go, so our ability to move
quickly is limited.
Bartram said that he thinks
the University could invest
more in stormwater management.
Junior Shelby
Hammerstein is the co-chairwoman of Students Working
for Environmental Action and
Transformation, a Campus
Y committee that promotes
environmental awareness on
campus. She said the organization wants to raise students
consciousness about water

Its important to recognize we are an old


campus. Weve got old buildings, and we
have to adapt as we go, so our ability to
move quickly is limited
Jamie Bartram
director of the Water Institute at the Gillings School of Global Public Health

usage this year.


(Sixty percent) is a huge
reduction, and we are very
proud of that, Hammerstein
said. Its not just talking
about having enough water
itself, but talking about
reducing the energy usage
that comes from moving
water from place to place.
Junior Sandrine Charles,
another co-chairwoman of

the committee, said making small changes like using


reusable water bottles and
shortening showers would
help the University cut its
water usage.
From here, its just about
looking at even smaller
things that we could do,
Hammerstein said.

UNC grad prepares for music festival


Three people run
Raleighs Hopscotch
music festival.
By Ryan Schocket
Assistant A&E Editor

Hopscotch Music Festival


attracts 20,000 people nationwide to Raleigh, features more
than 140 bands and is essentially run by two-and-a-half
people. The chief of that small
crew is the director, founder
and UNC graduate Greg
Lowenhagen.
We havent had the luxury
of pumping a couple extra hundreds of thousands of dollars
into staff, he said. We basically do this on a shoestring.
Lowenhagen is joined by his
only staff members: full-time
Development Director Gloria
Mock, and part-time Talent
Coordinator Nathan Price.
Lowenhagen said the three
of them are responsible for

VOTING

everything from booking acts


to marketing to accounting
to selling sponsorships and
keeping the budget balanced.
Basically anything that
encompasses hosting 20,000
people and 140 bands for
three days, he said.
They rely on their work
chemistry and a group of volunteers that help in the final
days leading up to the festival.
Right now, its incredibly
intense. Its insane. Theres a
lot of logistics but I enjoy
that, Mock said.
With the festival beginning
in two days, Lowenhagen and
his small staff are busy planning, answering emails and
phone calls and implementing last-minute changes.
Its less of a job and more
of a lifestyle, he said.
Its a little bit overwhelming, but its a labor of love.
Price agreed the hours are
non-traditional and taxing.
It all comes in waves, he
said. Some nights I might

ATTEND HOPSCOTCH
Time: 8:30 p.m. Thursday
until Sunday morning
Location: Downtown
Raleigh

was limited.
We have never spent
more than a million dollars to produce a single
Hopscotch, he said.
He also said that since
selling Hopscotch to Etix
founder, Travis Janovich, in
February, he is now debt-free.
Price said he believes the
festival is unique because it
is indoors, which is rare for a
music festival.
Thats one thing a lot of
people dont like about big
festivals: seeing bands out
of their element, Price said.
Youre getting a very energetic experience. Theres a little
bit more energy in the room
it can change the vibe.

COURTESY OF GLORIA MOCK


Every year, Hopscotch Music Festival attracts thousands of people
nationwide to Raleigh to listen to more than one hundred bands.

Lowenhagen explained
that besides liking the word
hopscotch, the festivals
name is based off the premise
of Julio Cortazars chooseyour-own-adventure book
with the same name.
The prologue says, There
are many books contained
within this book. The idea is

that Hopscotch, the festival, is


a lot like the novel, he said.
Everyone is doing the
same thing were having a
collective experience during
the weekend but everyone
is having an individual experience as well.

registration, cuts to early voting, he said. The state case
has challenged the voter ID
requirement, and were waiting for the judge to rule if we
can move forward.
Eppsteiner said voter ID
laws have no justification
except to make voting harder.
Disenfranchisement isnt
just barring people from voting, but also convincing them
that they cant vote, he said.
County and state (boards
of elections) have to publicize exactly what the voting
requirements are, but so far
thats been extremely limited.
Jared Jackson, co-president of UNCs chapter of
the NAACP, said he lacks
confidence voters will be
sufficiently educated on ID
exemptions.
With all of this going on, a
lot of people are going to say, I
dont know what to do, so Im
just not going to vote, he said.
Since the voter ID laws
passed, Jackson said, the state
has taken some steps back
from its progress inspired by
the Voting Rights Act.
While now it might not be
physical intimidation, its just
as hard for certain people to
get registered to vote, let alone
make it to the polls, he said.
UNC law professor Gene
Nichol said the door was
opened for North Carolinas
voter ID law when the U.S.
Supreme Court decided
in 2013 that states did not
need the U.S. Department
of Justices approval before
implementing laws affecting
voting participation.
(The court) ruled that provision unconstitutional under
a factual claim that voting
discrimination is no longer
a significant problem in the
South, he said. Within days
of the decision, our legislature
passed the most draconian
restriction of voting rights in
modern history.
Nichol said the purpose
of the states voter ID law is
clear.
Twenty years ago, the
recent voter law would have
been immediately invalidated
in federal courts since its
unifying purpose, first to last,
was to make it harder for
people to vote, he said.
Supporters of the law argue
these voting measures complicated the election process, but
Aden said she disagrees.
Wheres the evidence that
same-day registration is burdensome to elected officials?
she said. Why shouldnt 16and 17-year olds who can register to fight in wars be able
to get engaged in the political
process? These arguments fall
flat for me because the goal
should be to get more people
to participate.
Republican legislators who
sponsored the original voter
ID bill could not be reached
for comment.
Aden said when more
people are included in the
political process, state officials will work to put up new
barriers which she and her
colleagues will continue to
challenge.
This 50th anniversary is
a great reminder that people
died for the right to vote, lost
jobs for the right to vote and
were humiliated for the right
to vote, she said. People
recognize the value of participating in the political process,
and we have to expand their
ability do so.

But many priests and
bishops trained in pre-1983
Catholicism still think in
the old way, said Evyatar
Marienberg, UNC religious
studies professor.
He said for them, the
Popes announcement will
have a greater effect.
Legally speaking, his
statement changes little.
But for peoples mentality, it makes a difference,
Marienberg said. His statement has a pastoral flavor, or
a moral flavor, rather than a
legal flavor.
But Lasky said laws are
necessary to guide the church,
regardless of any distinction
between morality and legality.
Law is meant to create
space and freedom, he said.
Its meant to create creativity
and grace and what (Pope
Francis) is trying to do is open
the floodgates of all of that by
extending this faculty to all
priests around the world.

work five to six hours. Last


week, I worked 80 hours on
Hopscotch.
The genesis of the festival was an email sent by
Lowenhagen in June 2009 to
Steve Schewel, the owner and
co-founder of Independent
Weekly. The email, which
detailed Lowenhagens plan
to create a specific music festival in Raleigh, led to an invitation to lunch from Schewel.
By the time we left
lunch, he said hed do it,
Lowenhagen said.
Six years later, Hopscotch
has landed on Rolling Stones
Summer 2014s 40 Must-See
Music Festivals, and has been
dubbed the premiere experimental and underground
music festival in America by
music publication AdHoc.
But there are still many
aspects of the festival that are
small-scale.
Lowenhagen declined
to give specific financial
figures, but said the budget

Alexa Neweld battles injury again

Alexa Newfield couldnt believe it was happening again.


After notching five goals in the No. 4 North
Carolina womens soccer teams first four
games, the sixth-year senior forward felt like
she was finally back on track after an injuryladen career.
Newfield began her college career at
Georgia, where she set numerous records in
her first two seasons, including the Bulldogs
highest mark for points in a season with 40
during her sophomore campaign.
But after transferring to UNC in 2013, the
Atlanta native has only played in 21 games in
just over two seasons due to a string of knee
injuries.
So after her hot start, Newfield was devastated when she felt pain in her knee which
kept her out of practice this past week ahead
of the Duke Nike Classic, where UNC (5-01) tied California 1-1 and defeated No. 15
Southern California 2-1.
Gosh, the last two years it has been one
issue after another for her ... And gosh she was
playing well, Coach Anson Dorrance said.
Now its back to day-to-day sort of stuff. So I
just feel for the kid.
At risk of running her into the ground,
Dorrance decided to rest Newfield, who
missed the entire 2014 season, in the Tar
Heels tie against the Golden Bears on Friday.
North Carolina struggled to create chances in
the attacking third throughout the match.

Redshirt senior forward Alexa Newfield moves the ball upfield during Sundays game against Southern California as a part of the Duke Nike Classic.

But as UNCs second match of the weekend


drew closer, Dorrance elected to start the redshirt senior, whom he had dubbed his best
player after Fridays contest, hoping the extra
rest would help deter further injury.
And as she took her place at the top of
UNCs lineup against the Trojans, it was
clear what North Carolina had been missing. With Newfield leading the way, the
Tar Heels amassed a total of 18 shots, nine
corner kicks and two goals in a come-frombehind victory.
I think (having Newfield) gave everyone
more confidence in our attacking capabilities,
said junior forward Sarah Ashley Firstenberg,

who scored the game-winning goal for UNC


on Sunday.
Shes so much more experienced than we
are and she watches the game, so she creates a
lot more runs, a lot more options.
And while Newfields ability to play 60 minutes against USC was comforting, Dorrance
knows he will have to budget the forwards
playing time.
While not having her on the field now certainly hurts, he said her ability to play later in
the season is a much bigger priority.
Obviously, this is a magnificent player,
and we certainly missed her (Friday), but we
cant win games at the sacrifice of her health,

Dorrance said.
Dorrance also mentioned he has a strategy
for when to play the redshirt senior for the
foreseeable future.
And while he wouldnt go into detail, both
he and Newfield are confident the approach
will provide the team with the best chance for
success going forward.
The coaches have been really patient with
me and Im working through it, Newfield said.
We have a plan for each week, what were
going to do and how were going to approach it
... so Im not too concerned about it.

Leigh Andrew stands Hume, Lopez give


out in UNC exhibition spark from the bench
VOLLEYBALL

ITALIAN JUNIOR NATIONAL TEAM 3


NORTH CAROLINA

By Kevin Mercer
Staff Writer

Senior outside hitter Leigh Andrew has been a


bright spot in an otherwise bleak season for the
North Carolina volleyball team.
Andrew again impressed with her performance
in a 3-2 loss at home to the Italian Junior National
Team in an exhibition match on Monday.
She led the team with 16 kills in a match that
went the full five sets.
Leigh Andrew was the workhorse, Coach Joe
Sagula said. She was outstanding, I thought, all
the way around.
Despite Andrews effort, the Tar Heels dropped
another match this season. They started the season
ranked No. 7 but have since fallen to 1-4. Sagula
said the team has hurt itself the most during its
streak of three-straight losses, including losses to
Wisconsin and Minnesota this past weekend.
We just beat ourselves. We find every way
possible to lose, Sagula said.
Andrew, though, has emerged as the most
consistent player through the teams struggles,
leading the team in kills at the Women of Troy
Baden Invitational in Los Angeles to start the
season. She paced the Tar Heels to a dominant
25-13 third-set performance on Monday after
Italy controlled the first two sets.
She also helped the Tar Heels remain within

striking distance of the Italians in the fourth


set, including a set-point winner to close out the
marathon set 36-34.
Sagula said he saw a difference in Andrews and
the rest of the teams play in the fourth set.
I think that (fourth set) was something that
really showed the character of everyone on the
team, Andrew said. From the people on the bench,
from the people on the court, everyones in it.
Sagula held Andrew out of the deciding fifth
set to get more players in the game. Despite the
loss, Andrew said she sees a number of positives
in North Carolinas performance.
Obviously, we havent been getting the wins
that we want but weve been learning and weve
been progressing in what we havent been successful at, Andrew said.
Today was a good day to put some of those
things together and be able to see it and see
some success on the court.
Senior setter Jordyn Schnabl says the Tar
Heels benefitted from facing an elite team and
could carry over their success going forward.
I feel good about (Mondays) match against
the Italian team regardless of the outcome, she
said. I think we played very well, and we definitely got better from our previous matches.
Andrew said the experience the Tar Heels
gained in this exhibition game will serve them
well in the future. The Tar Heels play No. 3
Stanford on Thursday and will need a few more
bright spots to pull out a victory.
We dont like to lose and thats something
that were not accepting, Andrew said.

MENS SOCCER

NORTH CAROLINA

TULSA1
By David Allen Jr.
Staff Writer

Neither Tucker Hume nor Andy Lopez


played in 2014 but after four games for
the No. 4 North Carolina mens soccer team
(3-0-1) in 2015, the two have already scored.
After redshirting his freshman season,
Lopez was the first to find the back of the
net, scoring in the Tar Heels 3-0 victory
over Santa Clara on Aug. 30. Hume was
right behind him, scoring his first career
goal for UNC in the 41st minute of the Tar
Heels 2-1 win against Tulsa on Sunday.
Hume who transferred to UNC in
2014 and redshirted proved the difference in the tight game against the Golden
Hurricane, scoring the winning goal.
Its definitely a different mindset coming off the bench, Hume said. We expect
ourselves to raise the standard.
The 6-foot-5-inch forward is a threat on
crosses in the box and corner kicks using
his height to his advantage.
We do look for me or (senior defender
Jonathan Campbell) on corners, Hume said,
Its a dynamic of my game that I can use.
Hume and Lopez have both been coming
off the bench for the Tar Heels to replace
sophomore forward Zach Wright and
junior midfielder Omar Holness toward the

end of each half. Their different styles have


been an asset for UNCs offense.
Im always trying to play underneath
him, Lopez said. We both have different
styles of play, and we just try to help each
other out that way.
The starting attackers for UNC have
shown promise, but Wright is the only one
to score thus far.
With just seven goals through four
games, the Tar Heels offense is looking for
a spark to ignite the individual play-making ability its attackers possess.
Coach Carlos Somoano said UNCs
schedule over the past two weeks could be
to blame for the offensive slump, as they
have played a pair of games both weekends
with just one day of rest in between.
Right now we are playing Friday and
Sunday two weeks in a row, so we are in
need of extra legs, Somoano said, As the
season moves into a different segment, we
will take a look at our substitution patterns.
Lopez and Hume both said their goal is
to maintain and raise the standard of play
when coming off the bench.
Every time you come off the bench, you
just have to play your part, try to make an
impact, Lopez said.
And as the Tar Heels enter conference
play over the next two weeks with a pair
of games against Virginia Tech and No. 5
Notre Dame, the pair of offensive substitutes will be looked upon to carry some of
the attacking load.

Fedora explains decision to sit Elijah Hood on nal drive


The sophomore running
back stayed on the sideline
at the end of the game.
By Pat James
Sports Editor

Elijah Hood doesnt shy away


from contact.
Every time the 6-foot, 220-pound
running back receives a handoff, he
looks to impose his physical presence, shedding tackles and sprinting
downfield with reckless abandon.
And when it comes to finishing
near the goal line, where its imperative for a tailback to absorb contact and run straight ahead, Hood
embraces the challenge.
I know my chance to push it in,
and theres nothing like punching it
in on a defense to take the air out of
their lungs, he said. Its something
Ive always done whenever its on
the goal line, being able to be the

guy to get it in no matter what.


Despite a career-best performance in North Carolinas 17-13 loss
to South Carolina on Thursday, the
sophomore didnt get the ball when
UNC ran three plays inside the
Gamecocks 9-yard line in the final
minutes. In fact, he didnt even see
the field.
Hood ran for a career-high 138
yards on 12 carries, capped by a
29-yard run on the Tar Heels final
possession. But he was pulled after
the next play so he could catch
his breath. He didnt return until
fourth-and-goal from the 8.
We were in a hurry-up mode at
that point, Coach Larry Fedora said.
And we didnt get him back into the
game.
Fedora said UNC cant substitute
during hurry-up mode, but the Tar
Heels made two changes on the final
set of downs bringing in Romar
Morris for Ryan Switzer on secondand-goal before Switzer came in for
Morris on third-and-goal.

Before the third-and-goal play,


Hood walked onto the field before
running backs coach Larry Porter
grabbed Hoods jersey and pulled
him back onto the sideline.
I had thought I had been called
in, but it turns out I just misheard
that, Hood said. I think it was just
the tempo we were running, and
there was a certain play called in.
Hood later entered the game on
fourth-and-goal, when Marquise
Williams threw an interception to
end the scoring chance.
Although Hood didnt get a carry
on UNCs final set of downs, he capitalized on the opportunities he did
get. He ran for 118 yards in the second half, including a 44-yard gain in
the third quarter.
Any time you can run the ball
down a teams throat, its demoralizing for the team and it pumps the
guys up, said redshirt senior linebacker Jeff Schoettmer. When we
have a running back like Elijah that
refuses to go down, its fun to see.

DTH/KATIE WILLIAMS

The Tar Heels havent involved


their running backs as much the past
two seasons and have stuck to a running-back-by-committee approach.
But despite Hood not being in the
game down the stretch, Fedora said
UNC could rely on one tailback this

season. Perhaps, it could be Hood.


If hes healthy, running well and
productive, then we need to get
the ball to him more, Fedora said.
Theres no doubt.
