ALL EYES ON CHARLOTTE

Trustees learned about

campus issues and
construction Wednesday.
By Acy Jackson, Colleen Moir and
Alexis Bell
Senior Writers

When the Board of Trustees

met in committees Wednesday,
University Affairs chairperson
Chuck Duckett opened his committees meeting by speaking on a personal issue.
What we might want to do is
work together versus making comments that arent helpful, quite
frankly, to the University as it
relates to the North Carolina Policy
Collaboratory, Duckett said.
Graduate and Professional
Student Federation president Dylan
Russell gave an update on GPSF
and the goals he plans on working
toward this year.
He said he wants to develop a bill
of rights for graduate and professional students and find a way to
provide increased stipends.
Bruce Cairns, chairperson of the
faculty, then presented on the state
of the faculty and asked that there
be a more open way for the faculty
to disagree on issues and share their
opinions.
It is our job to let people speak
their voices and at the end of the day
we have to figure out a way to make
this work, he said.

Commercialization and economic development

The focus of the commercialization and economic development
committee was the Campus Y.
The Campus Y co-presidents
Lauren Eaves and Regan Buchanan
explained the role of the Campus Y
to the committee.
Basically, this history of being
ingrained in the UNC community
and committed to social justice and
the Y continues to support students
to pursue their passions to make a
positive impact on campus throughout North Carolina and across the
world, Eaves said.
The committee ended with a
presentation from Scott Diekema
and Keegan McBride who run The
Meantime in the Campus Y.

External relations committee

David Routh, vice chancellor for
university development, said 2016
was the Universitys best fundraising
year raising $495 million.
I am a big fan of celebrating the
success of our smaller units who are
really getting the job done, Routh
said. But I do want to tell you,
we have the majority of our larger
school units who had the best year
ever.
Routh played a video for the committee explaining ways the money
could be used Carolina Covenant
Scholars, student-athletes and study
abroad programs.

Finance, infrastructure and

audit committee
Six items were approved with
no objections at the committee
meeting, including an approval for
the site for the new Fetzer Soccer
and Lacrosse Facility and Indoor
Practice Facility.
Anna Wu, the associate vice chancellor for facilities services, introduced the request for site approval

A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer fatally shot a man in the parking lot of a Charlotte apartment complex Tuesday afternoon. The man who died was identified as Keith
Scott, 43, and the officer who fired the fatal shot was CMPD Officer Brentley Vinson. Protests broke out in Charlotte Tuesday night (pictured above) and Wednesday night.

Black mans death at hands of police spurs nights of unrest

By Benji Schwartz
State & National Editor

North Carolina catapulted into the national

spotlight Tuesday when a Charlotte-Mecklenburg
Police Department officer killed Keith Scott, an
African-American man, and protestors took to
the streets in Charlotte two nights in a row.
According to the CMPD, 12 officers were
injured during the protest Tuesday. Wednesday
nights protest left one civilian on life support
after being shot by another civilian, police said.
Gov. Pat McCrory declared a state of emergency
and called in the National Guard late Wednesday.
Original accounts of the killing had Scott reading a book in his car before being confronted by
police, who had a warrant for a different man.
While this account prompted local and
national outcry, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police
Chief Kerr Putney detailed a different sequence of
events during a press conference on Wednesday.

Putney said Scott was armed and didnt drop

his handgun despite repeated calls to from
Officer Brentley Vinson, prompting the officers
use of deadly force.
A weapon was seized a handgun, he said.
I can also tell you we did not find a book.
Mike Meno, spokesperson for the N.C.
American Civil Liberties Union, said Vinson was
not wearing a body camera even though state
law requires it, and the Charlotte-Mecklenberg
Police Department has so far declined to release
footage from other officers body cameras.
In incidents like this where you have conflicting reports from police and community members,
its incredibly important that police be transparent, he said. And video footage of this encounter
can shed a light on what actually happened.
Police departments will be prevented from
releasing body camera footage unless under
court order when House Bill 972 goes into effect
on Oct. 1.

Q&A with marriage equality

plaintiff Jim Obergefell
Jim Obergefell was the main
plaintiff in the U.S. Supreme
Courts landmark ruling to
legalize same-sex marriage. He
will speak and have a book signing at the Institute for Arts and
Humanities at 2 p.m. on Friday.
Online managing editor
Danny Nett spoke with him
about House Bill 2, the state of
LGBTQ rights and Obergefells
new book, Love Wins: The
Lovers and Lawyers Who
Fought the Landmark Case for
Marriage Equality.
The Daily Tar Heel: What was it
like to become the face of the
marriage equality movement?
Jim Obergefell: I know Im the
name and face of a landmark
Supreme Court case, but it
still doesnt feel real. Its just a
bizarre situation I find myself
in. And a week doesnt go by
that Im not reminded why
John and I decided to file suit.
You know, because people stop
me all the time to say thank
you, to show me photos, tell me
stories, to hug me, to cry. And
its been an amazing experience
to get that gift over and over
from strangers on the street.
It reminds me that John and
I started this fight because we

Jim Obergefell
won his lawsuit
to have the
state of Ohio
acknowledge
the marriage to
his late husband,
John Arthur.
loved each other and we wanted to fight for each other.
DTH: Can you describe the
moment all of you found out
the ruling?
JO: There were other plaintiffs in
the courtroom, but we werent
sitting with each other And
when the chief justice said that
Justice (Anthony) Kennedy
would read the first decision
and they said our case number,
I kind of startled in my chair
and grabbed the hands of the
friends on either side of me and
just started listening.
And as Justice Kennedy read
his decision, my first thought
was, We won. But as he kept
reading, I questioned that,
because you know, legal language is not always the clearest. And then I thought again,
Well, we won. Well, Im not
really sure. And then it hit me
that we really did win, and I

just burst into tears.

And I also realized for the
first time in my life as an out
gay man, I felt like an equal
American. And, of course, I
missed John. I wish he had been
there to experience that with me,
and I wouldve loved nothing
more than to hug and kiss him
and say we won, but I couldnt.

Politicians and advocacy groups from across

the state weighed in on the situation through
a litany of press releases. McCrory and Sen.
Richard Burr both called for a chance for police
to complete their investigation.
Sen. Thom Tillis said the response to the
shooting resulted in chaos before praising CMPD.
It was an embarrassing moment for the city
that was only redeemed by the brave men and
women of the CMPD who demonstrated incredible composure, which likely prevented the violence
from escalating further, he said in the statement.
Tre Shockley, president of the UNC Black
Student Movement, said he was unhappy with
how police had been trying to stop the protests.
It seemed like they were trying to quell the
protesting and rioting that was going on by saying the officer that killed the man was black, he
said. Thats really not the point its really just

State leaders
question HB2
State Republicans are concerned
about the economic impact of HB2.
By Sharon Nunn
Senior Writer

JO: Well, I think it says there is a

group of people in the U.S. who
are opposed to equality for the
LGBTQ community, and they
know theyre losing. They lost
marriage equality. All they have
to do is look at opinion polls
They know theyre losing, and
they are scared.
This is their way of continuing the fight and trying to hold onto the past
Refusing to move forward,
refusing to accept the fact that
all Americans are equal
whether or not they like it, all
Americans are equal.

The political fervor surrounding House Bill

2 in the past two weeks has culminated in a
policy standoff between Gov. Pat McCrory and
Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts.
After the NCAA and ACC announced they
would move championship events from North
Carolina last week, three Republican state legislators Rep. Gary Pendleton, R.- Wake, Sen.
Rick Gunn, R.- Alamance and Randolph, and
Sen. Tamara Barringer, R.- Wake, have said
they want to revisit HB2.
Gunn said in a statement although he is
opposed to men having access to non-male
rooms and bathrooms, he is concerned about the
impact HB2 has had on the state.
I think it is time we give serious consideration to modifying, or possibly repealing, HB2,
he said. It is time for the federal courts to protect women and girls privacy.
Josh Ellis, spokesperson for McCrory, said
in a statement that state legislation is only
necessary if the Charlotte ordinance which
included LGBTQ people in nondiscrimination
protections remains in place.
If the Charlotte City Council totally repeals
the ordinance and then we can confirm there
is support to repeal among the majority of
state lawmakers in the House and Senate, the
governor will call a special session, he said. It
is the governors understanding that legislative

has been called its most antiLGBTQ platform in history.
What do you think that says
about where we are in a postmarriage equality America?

I believe that the heart does go on

By Betsy Alexandre
Staff Writer

Once-upon-a-time fairy
tales fit the confines of a simple narrative. That narrative
went something like this: girl
meets boy, boy falls in love
with girl, they marry and live
happily ever after.
When Brangelina came
rushing to the forefront of
pop culture, the world learned
that fairy tales arent so simple
after all. Sometimes boy is
married to girl next door, boy
falls in love with new bad girl,
boy leaves girl next door, boy
marries new bad girl, forms
a beloved power couple and
adopts a bevy of international
babies. Theirs was a millennial

love story for the ages.

And yet, the story took a
turn for the worse on Tuesday
when the public learned that
Brangelina had reached a fork
in the metaphorical road of
their relationship. That is to
say, Brad and Angelina are
no more and the world as we
know it is over.
But why am I not surprised?
Did I really see this coming?
Am I suddenly cynical and
cold? Or could it just be that
2016 has been the ultimate
year of the celebrity break up?
Since its Thursday and
weve all been mourning the
de-hyphenation of Jolie-Pitt,
here is a throwback look at
breakups of the year.

Taylor Swift and Calvin

Harris

Iggy Azalea and Nick

Young

Lets start off big here, shall

we? Taylor Swift is an icon of
The Breakup. But something
about Calvin felt different
from her Joe Jonas and Harry
Styles past. He was Scottish.
He was a DJ. He had washboard abs. Everything about
him seemed to suggest that he
was lifetime bae material for
Tay. And then the unthinkable happened. Tay and
Calvin collaborated on This
is What You Came For but
Tay went by the pseudonym
Nils Sjoberg and everyone
was quite confused. A couple
of angry tweets later, and this
love story was no more.

This breakup played out in

a fashion shockingly similar
to the narrative of Shaggys
hit song from 2000 It Wasnt
Me. Iggy did, in fact, catch
Nick red-handed creeping with
the girl next door. And yes, she
even caught him on camera.

Kylie Jenner and Tyga

Did this breakup actually
happen? If you follow MaG
on Snapchat then you know
that after a brief hiatus, this
legally questionable duo is
back at it and better than ever.
For most normal couples, presenting your girlfriend with

a big diamond ring means

you are ready to hit the altar.
But Tyga and Kylie are not a
normal couple, and that sparkler Kylies wearing was just a
birthday present.
What a sad year 2016
proved to be for the celebrity
power couple. But with every
end comes a beginning, and
there is no doubt that these
newly single celebs will be
rebounding their way back
into semi-successful relationships. We can also take comfort knowing that Jennifer
Aniston is laughing all the
way home to the loving arms
of her adoring husband. Jen,
heres to you.

Sculptures create discussion in the Chapel Hill area

By Maggie Mouat
Staff Writer

To evoke thought, create

questions and reflect its surroundings.
That is the goal of Sculpture
Visions, the 10-year ongoing
program run by the Chapel
Hill Cultural Arts Division.
The process begins in July,
when a group of commissioners, artists and town staff
choose which pieces will be on
display at each of the 12 available locations.
Dan Cefalo, a chairperson
of the Chapel Hill Public Arts
Commission, said the art is
on display from July until
June of the next year.
We basically try to choose
pieces that best fit the locations, whether that is based
on space, on layout, based on
if some of them are approachable or can be touched and
just all of these various factors
come into play, he said. If
it is a piece that is on shared
public-private partnership
land, we will reach out to the

owner and will present him

the options that we picked and
he will say yes or choose something else.
Cefalo said the input of the
business managers and owners
is a key part of the selection
process for the art pieces.
We have reached out to
make sure everyone is getting
their voices in regarding the
pieces, and seeing that it is
an accurate representation of
their business, he said.
One of these pieces, bench
Vl, was created by Matthias
Neumann, a New York-based
artist who uses fir wood to
create abstract sculptures
across the country in a series
called Basics.
So you are curious about
it when youre walking in
the woods and see these two
squares that almost seem to be
floating, it inspires you to learn
more about it, Chapel Hill
Library Director Susan Brown
said. And then you realize its a
bench and you can interact and
connect with it.
Neumann said the main

themes of his work are the

ideas of temporary public art
and the personal interpretation
of the viewer.
The name evokes the idea
of what it is, and the dimensions and economics are such
that you are very comfortable sitting on the bench, he
said. However, the formal
approach to it, its a very
abstract object, but you would
also see it as something that
you are not supposed to touch
but just look at. It operates in
that in-between. Its up to the
viewer to negotiate with himself/herself.
Happy Wanderers, a
sculpture by Virginia-based
artist Charlie Brouwer that
consists of two sculptures
made of Locust wood, is on
display at the library trail as
well. Brouwers depiction of a
hiking grandparent and their
grandchild can be identified
across generations and makes
for an interesting piece of
public art, he said.
Neumann said his experience creating public art

showed him that people are

curious about it.
In the short two days it
took for me to install, I had
interactions with people who
were wondering and had questions about what it was that I
was doing and asking, What is
that, a bench or a sculpture?
he said. If it is a sculpture,
you may raise questions such
as, What is beauty and what is

place, what makes a place more

enjoyable or memorable?
Neumanns art emphasizes
the conversation that results
from art.
I do think public art creates an interaction, and raises
questions and these questions always lead to expanding minds.

UNC Habitat redraws its blueprints

The plan is to
build 10 houses
in Northside
By Celia McRae
Staff Writer

UNC Habitat for Humanity has big plans

for the school year. The organizations goal for
the year is to build 10 houses rather than
one house and raise over a million dollars
to do so.
A major goal of the organization this year is
to connect various parts of the UNC community to the efforts of Habitat.
I think the biggest thing is wed love for
people on campus to take a personal responsibility toward the project, to help with fundraising, going out to the builds and really putting in extra effort, said co-chairperson Matt
Coleman.
Their new fundraising endeavor is a virtual
online tournament called Racery. Through
this application, student groups and clubs
can help fundraise by making teams, running
1,000 miles and logging the miles they run on
a virtual map of North Carolina.
Alex Mitchell, a co-chairperson of UNC
Habitat for Humanity, said the group is also
partnering with various schools within UNC,
such as the School of Information and Library
Science, to help raise funds and contribute
volunteers.
The group will be working closely with
Orange County Habitat for Humanity to build
the 10 houses in Northside neighborhood.
Building in this location is significant
because it is so close to the UNC campus,
Mitchell said. This allows students easy access
to the build sites and to feel more connected to
the project.
Usually we would drive 45 minutes to
Efland in Orange County, but now you can
walk 20 minutes and also make an indelible

mark on the Chapel Hill community, he said.

Building affordable houses in Northside
plays an important role in building and maintaining the community, said Mark Peifer, UNC
Habitat faculty advisor.
If youre an owner of the home, right, then
you know youre invested in that place and I
think thats again a great aspect of the work
Habitat does, right, its also creating communities, Peifer said.
Coleman said those who receive homes

from Habitat also put in sweat equity.

"They dont only work on their house, they
also work on their neighbors homes like
you have other neighbors and just people on
campus come out just to build and I think it
really brings people together in a community
to accomplish a common goal, Coleman said.
UNC Habitat for Humanity plays an important role in not only building affordable housing in Chapel Hill, but also raising awareness
of the need for such housing.

Mitchell said its important to make local

housing more affordable so people working in
the area dont have to make long commutes.
Theres a pressure on the surrounding
community to build small houses that will
house students who will pay very high rent
and not big houses that will house families
that want to pay affordable rent, Mitchell
said.

Two startups represent N.C. schools snag solar lessons

Chapel Hill in D.C.
Solar panels provided by Duke
Energy will be for education.

The startups met with

members of Congress
with 33 other groups.
By Emily Wakeman
Staff Writer

Two Chapel Hill-based

startups EpiCypher and
Renovion attended the first
University Startups Demo Day
in Washington, D.C.
On Tuesday, the companies
attended the event sponsored
by the National Council of
Entrepreneurial Tech Transfer
along with 33 other startups
from universities. At the demo
day, members of the startups
met with their respective members of Congress.
Sam Tetlow, CEO of
EpiCypher, said the company
began in January of 2012. Tetlow
said the companys goal is to
advance the science of epigenetics
and to save lives. He said their
products help researchers figure
out if a medicine is going to work
very early in the process.
So every time we ship a
product we save .42 of a persons
life, Tetlow said.

Tetlow said the startup has

been so successful because of its
very experienced management
team, the great science and products, and the way in which the
field of epigenetics is growing.
When you add all those
things together you get an
opportunity to really have an
impact, Tetlow said.
Brian Strahl, the vice chairperson of the department of
Biochemistry and Biophysics at
UNC, is one of the three scientific founders of EpiCypher.
Tetlow said EpiCypher has a
license through UNC for part of
their technology, and KickStart
Venture Services nominated
EpiCypher for Startup Day.
It is a great recognition for
the team that has worked so
hard and it means a lot coming from the United States
Congress, he said.
Renovion, a pre-clinical stage
pharmaceutical company, also
based out of Chapel Hill, was
started in 2013.
Dan Copeland, CEO of
Renovion, said the company
wants to focus on lung transplant
therapy because lung transplants
have some of the highest mortality rates among common organ

transplant procedures.
Our focus today is to be the
first drug to be FDA approved
for lung transplant patients,
Copeland said.
Carolyn Durham, chief
operations officer and one of the
founders, said the initial stages of
starting Renovion were getting a
patent and finding leadership.
As one of the founders it
has been super exciting to get
Dan on board and the Board on
board and really move into lung
transplant patients very quickly
and really see a difference in
improving the outcomes for
them, Durham said.
Copeland said part of the
conference during the demo day
is spent talking to legislators,
but the other big part is talking
to potential investors.
Renovion, like EpiCypher,
also learned about University
Startup Demo Day through
UNC. Copeland said they have
received a few grants from UNC.
For us, we love the idea, there
is a great story here around how
public universities can create
great therapies, so that is the
long term big picture he said.
university@dailytarheel.com

to provide significant power for the school.

Hopefully theyll remember those
lessons as they go forward in their education, he said.
Dana Haine, K-12 science education
manager at the UNC Institute for the
Environment, said in an email students
she has worked with have expressed genuine interest in renewable energy projects.
I see this as an opportunity for teachers
at schools who receive the panels to integrate solar energy data into instruction and
ultimately increase student awareness and
understanding about the benefits and limitations of solar energy, Haine said.
Thomas Meyer, UNCs Arey distinguished professor of chemistry, said the
project is part of a bigger picture.
We should admire them for doing it,
because that will inspire people to pay
more attention to where power comes
from, he said.
This announcement comes shortly
after Duke Energy settled a 15-year-old
legal case filed by the U.S. government for
alleged violations of the Clean Air Act.
Wheeless said Duke Energy decided
with the EPA to help fund programs with
positive impacts on the environment.
It is a nice way for them to make a
positive statement, Meyer said.
Lebrato said the panels will have a lasting impact.
The solar installations will be there for
years to come, so we know that will only
exponentially serve to educate more and
more students as they come through each
class, she said.

Duke Energy announced Tuesday it will

provide local K-12 schools with $300,000
total in grants for solar power systems and
energy education programs.
The grants, to be distributed by nonprofit organization N.C. GreenPower,
allow funding for educational packages
which include solar panels, educational
training and monitoring equipment.
Were looking for probably about 10
schools that are served by Duke Energy,
either in the Triangle or west of Raleigh,
said Randy Wheeless, spokesperson for
Duke Energy.
Wheeless said the main focus will be
on schools that have previously shown an
interest in solar power, as well as schools
in disadvantaged or lower income areas.
N.C. GreenPower has had a similar program for the past two years where schools
had to provide half of the funding on their
own, said Katie Lebrato, spokesperson for
N.C. GreenPower.
Its something most schools couldnt
afford otherwise, so were really excited
about being able to reach more students,
Lebrato said.
The monitoring equipment included
in the grants allows children to see how
much energy is produced and the influence of weather on the panels, she said.
Wheeless said the program will focus
on education, and the panels are not likely

Rachel Augustine, a Peace, War and

Defense and Mathematical Decision
Sciences double major from Greensboro,
was elected as a District 4 representative, covering Hinton James, Koury,
Ehringhaus and Horton residence halls.
Yesterday was a good day for me,
because I had a calculus exam that went
well, and then I got elected, Augustine said.
Augustine said she decided to run for
Student Congress to help influence largescale decisions, especially with money.
Im really interested in finance and
how the school spends the money that it
has, she said.
She plans to work in politics in the future.
As a PWAD major and a data analyst,
I want to do political analysis, she said.
It could be voting analysis, international
relations kind of stuff. I could do statistical analysis in politics.

Stanley Sun, from Portland, Ore., is

a pre-business first-year representing
District 1, or North Campus.
I want to become a leader, he said. I
want to offer visibility for Asian-American
students in terms of leadership positions
and break the norm that we are just quiet,
white-collar workers, and that we do have
a voice, and we do have a presence on
campus.
Sun said his involvement in politics
began with his high school debate club.
There are a lot of social issues that have
come to my attention as a result of broadening my world view after debate, Sun said.
Sun said his favorite hobby is art, especially graphic design.
Im part of the marketing manager
team for my community government,
Sun said. Im also the official graphic
designer for Sonder Market.

Tarik Woods, a public policy and

English major from Salisbury, N.C., is representing District 4 in Student Congress.
Woods said he was student body president at his high school and is currently the
chairperson for the Junior Ambassador
People to People program, a North Carolina
junior senator for the Young Politicians of
America organization and a prosecutorial
teen attorney for North Carolina.
Working with student government,
finding issues and solving them so that
they arent just temporarily fixed, but they
are fixed for the next years to come is very
important to me, Woods said.
Woodss plan to run for student body
president, and then President of the United
States, is as serious as the We the People
tattoo on his back.
The people, the people, the people,
Woods said. Thats what its all about.

Lydia Farro, an undecided major, will

represent District 4 in Student Congress.
I have been in leadership positions
throughout high school, and I always
really enjoyed seeing the impact that my
voice had, Farro said. When I first joined
student government I didnt understand I
could actually make a change, and I didnt
know I would really value that until I
started doing it.
Farro said she is on the social media and
T-shirt committees of the executive branch
in Student Congress and is the marketing
manager for her community government.
She said she is very interested in graphic
design and is the illustrator of a soon-to-be
published childrens book. Farro is a server
at Mellow Mushroom, as well.
I rapped Suicidal Thoughts by Biggie
Smalls on my interview for Mellow
Mushroom and got the job, Farro said.

The Daily Tar Heel

Club hockey team skates to success by revamping its brand

By Danielle Bush
Staff Writer

UNCs club ice hockey

team is ready to take the ice
in hopes of capturing another
Atlantic Coast Collegiate
Hockey League title. In the
past two years, they have
come in third and in first.
Although the team started
with two losses to High Point
University and Wake Forest
University this year, team
president and co-captain Joe
Baglio, a senior, said he is confident in his teams skill level

HB2

governor agree with that

Mitch Kokai, spokesperson for the John Locke
Foundation, a right-leaning
think-tank, said he does

it being a lethal situation for

Meno said the night was a
wake up call for the state.
Weve seen too many
instances where people of color

MARRIAGE

So I think its shameful that

one of our two main political
parties would implement such
a hateful platform, and its all
based on fear. But that seems
to be what the Republican
party uses for pretty much
everything fear.

and ability to play cohesively

to ensure a successful season.
We have probably a more
skilled team than weve had
in the past two years but
were just feeling each other
out, trying different coaching
strategies and trying to deal
with the fact that we are growing, he said. We have a lot of
infrastructure built around us
for the first time really since
the teams inception.
Baglio said this year, the
team created its first legal
entity, The Carolina Hockey
Booster Club, specifically

geared toward supporting

team finances.
The team rebranded
through social media and
added a 10-person broadcast
team. They also added an
equipment manager and a
camera person.
Justin Ford, assistant
director of sports programs in
Campus Recreation, said due
to the high costs of the sport
and the limited funding from
the sports club program, the
team is encouraged to look
for additional fundraising
methods.

I know theyve cut back

on practices and some of their
games just because of the large
financial commitment that it
does entail. They have been
working hard to do some fundraising and seek sponsorships
and stuff, Ford said. I guess
theyre a little bit different from
the 48 other clubs that we
have because of the significant
financial commitment they
have overall as a club.
UNC Ice Hockey alumn
Matt Gellatly played on the
team for four years and was
one of two players inducted

into the ACCHL Hall of Fame

Class of 2015.
Being able to be in the
ACCHL Hall of Fame is pretty
cool, its something that I
never really thought about I
guess until it happened, he
said. Its not something I
was shooting for or a goal or
anything like that. But it was
a pleasant surprise.
Gellatly, who played forward, said he enjoyed playing
for a highly competitive team
throughout his college years
and being able to make close
bonds with his teammates.

It was really fun representing the school in an athletic

environment, he said. Also
making a really close group
of friends was nice, going on
road trips together, working
out with the team and going
to games, you get really close
with your teammates.
The team will play in the
Jim Sapikowski Memorial
Tournament this weekend
and will take on Duke at the
PNC arena on Sept. 28 with
free admission for students.

not expect the N.C. General

Assembly to repeal HB2
without passing another
piece of legislation addressing Charlottes February
nondiscrimination ordinance.
The General Assembly
didnt out of the blue decide
to take action that would

make the LGBT community

mad, he said. They did it
because the Charlotte City
Council passed this ordinance that did not address
that youre opening doors to
potential abuse.
Charlotte Mayor Jennifer
Roberts said at a Monday
meeting the city council

would not consider repealing the ordinance this week,

according to the News &
Observer, despite calls
from the North Carolina
Restaurant & Lodging
Association for the city to
repeal it.
Chris Sgro, executive director of Equality NC, said a

special session needs to take

place to repeal HB2.
Im sure that conversations are going around
amongst Republican leadership about how and when we
need to repeal this bill, Sgro
said.
I dont think we need to
see any further damage.

The status of HB2s repeal

is up in the air, although
Kokai said Republican leadership would likely want to
add some kind of bathroom
protection for women and
children if any kind of action
were to be taken.

And last night we were again
reminded that North Carolina

Ignite N.C., a grassroots
activist group, organized
protests in HBCUs across the
state and called Scotts death

a lynching.
Shockley said he was tired
of seeing his people killed.
My reaction to the shooting
is just, not again, you know?
he said. Its just very frustrating to see these things happen
over and over, and no real policy changes are being made.

the construction of the new

The demolition request
was approved.
The budget for the new
facility is $55 million and the
budget for the demolition of
the current one is $1.2 million, and the Rams Club will
fund both.

In addition, a site was

approved for an addition to
Chase Hall, which contains
Rams Head Dining Hall. The
addition would add over 150
seats to the dining hall.
This project will add over

HB2 came up because of
the continuing change in
attitudes and support for the
LGBTQ community, marriage
equality, and its shameful that
so many people in our country

right lawsuit at the right time.
So, from my perspective,
John and I were married. We
learned that his death certificate would erase our marriage
from existence, from his last

record as a person. That was

harm. That was personal, and

Part of a periodic update

CHICLE Language Institute

The Spotted Dog Restaurant

CHICLE Language Institute will host a ribbon-cutting

ceremony to celebrate their new location in Chapel Hill
today.
The institute moved from Weaver Street to 109
Conner Dr. to be at a more centralized location between
Chapel Hill and Carrboro, said Bryttanye Bannister,
office manager of CHICLE.
CHICLE provides translation services for different
events in the community and the UNC Health Care. The
institute has instructors for multiple languages.
We teach a variety of languages, including Spanish,
French and German, Bannister said.
They also have language instructors for Mandarin and
Russian.
Bannister said the institute is excited about the new
location and having their own office space.
The ribbon cutting will start at 4:30 p.m.
Guests will include staff and ambassadors of the
Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of Commerce, local
community and business leaders and elected officials,
Bannister said.

The Spotted Dog restaurant in Carrboro is under new

ownership as of Aug. 31.
Ed Corbell recently purchased the restaurant after
being a long-time patron.
My wife and I have been eating here eight or nine
years, and we love the restaurant, he said.
Corbell said he does not plan on making any major
changes to the menu.
The Spotted Dog currently boasts a variety of vegetarian, vegan and organic options.
He will, however, be making a change to the restaurants hours.
The Spotted Dog is currently closed on Mondays, but
Corbell plans to open for Mondays by the end of October.
Sitting on a corner between Main and Weaver St., the
restaurant has been open since 1998.
As a self-proclaimed green restaurant, the Spotted
Dog exercises many recycling practices.
It has won multiple local awards, including Best
Vegetarian-Friendly Restaurant from Indy Week and
Best Veggie Burger.

Zells Daiquiri Bar

A daiquiri bar is coming to Chapel Hill, taking the
residence of a former, well-known dive bar.
Zells Daiquiri Bar will occupy 157 E. Rosemary St.
which used to house Chapel Hill Underground.
Chapel Hill Underground, a former gay bar, closed in
the past year.
Bertha Gamble, the new tenant, does not know the
exact date the bar will open but said she expects it will be
sometime next month.
There are no other daiquiri bars in Chapel Hill.
Zells Daiquiri Bar will be underneath Country Fried
Duck.

Monsanto agrees to a $66 billion buyout

Bayers presence in
the Research Triangle
might be affected.
By CJ Farris
Staff Writer

The German pharmaceutical and chemical giant Bayer

announced the acquisition
of Monsanto, a seed, biotech and pesticide company
known for its genetically
modified organism work.
The buyout, confirmed
by the companies on Sept.
14, was for $66 billion. Both
companies have a presence in
the Research Triangle Park
that could be affected by the
buyout.
Keith Edmisten, a professor

of crop science at N.C. State,

said the biggest concern for
North Carolina will likely be
the degree to which Bayer
stays in the Triangle area.
We have a lot of interaction in the university with
research and some teaching
with Bayer, so itll be sad if
they move, he said.
Julie Terry, marketing and
special projects manager at
the RTP, said in an email it
is uncertain how this buyout
will affect the park.
She said Bayer has about
1,000 employees locally,
which makes it one of the
largest employers in the RTP.
Monsanto recently vacated a lab facility they owned
here, but that was part of an
effort on Monsantos part to
consolidate research efforts to

their St. Louis headquarters,

Terry said.
She said Bayer also has an
education center at the RTP,
called the Bee Care Center,
where they work with N.C.
State to study honeybee
decline.
Edmisten said either company leaving the area could
reduce local job opportunities for graduating biotech
students.
But I think eventually that
as they work (the acquisition)
out the jobs just may not
be local, they may be in St.
Louis or somewhere else, he
said.
Before the deal, Bayer
and Monsanto were two of
the largest companies in the
global seed and pesticide
business, Edmisten said.

On a website designed
specifically to describe the
acquisition called Advancing
Together, Bayer said the
merger creates a global leader
in agriculture.
Edmisten said the two
companies complement one
another.
It merges a company with
a strong chemical portfolio
with a company that has a
stronger biotech portfolio,
he said.
Bayer said they will pay
$128 per share of Monsanto
stock, which could reward
stockholders with a healthy
44 percent return on investment, based on Monsantos
May 9 stock value.
Edmisten said there have
been many buyouts in the
agriculture industry over the

last 20 years, and that after

the Bayer-Monsanto buyout,
any more will be concerning.
Previous buyouts include
the $43 billion ChemChinaSyngenta merger, and the
$130 billion DuPont-Dow
Chemical merger, both of
which are still under regulatory review.
Edmisten said these companies are likely joining forces
in order to keep up with the
increasing costs of research
and development, partially
due to stricter regulations.
They have to be safer, less
toxic, not last as long in the
environment so less persistent, he said. So theres
always an investment in trying
to find pesticides that not only
work well but that are safer.

Condon said on the acquisition website, The agriculture
industry is at the heart of one
of the greatest challenges of
our time: how to feed an additional three billion people in
the world by 2050 in an environmentally sustainable way.
Edmisten said before the
buyout is finalized, it will
have to be approved by the
Department of Justice to
ensure that it will not result
in a monopoly.
Bayer said on the acquisition website it expects the
deal to close in late 2017.
I think they will be the
biggest (in the agricultural
industry) after this merger,
Edmiston said.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT

Alison Krug

oo often we find ourselves stuck in a bubble

at Chapel Hill. When
we spend the majority of our
time around the same people
at the same school in the same
major with the same interests, its easy to feel as though
everyone is competing for the
same jobs, the same accolades,
the same opportunities.
This past Saturday, the
bubble popped as I found
myself in a case of the later
as I watched a line of smiling
people up to their elbows in
buckets of cockroaches.
Raleighs BugFest, hosted by
the N.C. Museum of Natural
Sciences, is a celebration of
all things arthropod. Armed
with nothing but friends more
adventurous than I, a hashtag
for live tweeting (#KrugBg)
and the comforting knowledge
the event was sponsored by
Terminix (settling my fears of
a cricket uprising in protest of
Caf Insecta), I left Chapel Hill
behind for a day of bugs.
Now I dont have the best
track record with bugs. Last
Spring Break I took a trip to
Florida only to be stung by a
bee in my first step onto the
beach. Last month a wingless
but enthusiastic cicada buzzed
around my kitchen for half an
hour. This morning a bee got
stuck in my hair.
When our dear, dear,
bug-loving opinion editor
invited me along to this years
BugFest, I found it wasnt
all buckets of cockroaches
(though that was a standout
exhibit). What I didnt expect
was to see hundreds of people
who LOVE bugs. They LOVE
them.
It can be the most refreshing thing to be reminded that
things that dont excite you
can be the light of others
worlds. People gabbed about
their favorite ant while wearing antennae and snacking on
mealworm mac n cheese. (I
found my spirit ant with the
help of lovely volunteers Im
a textbook case of odorous
house ant.)
BugFest is for those who
love bugs in every way.
Everywhere I looked, bugs
were celebrated through a
range of expressions. Come
learn about one! Come learn
how to protect one! Come
touch one! Come eat one!
I stuck with learn about
one! and protect one! and
gave a hard pass to touch one!
and a harder pass to eat one!
My braver friends took a
trip through Caf Insecta. You
can barely taste the cricket!
one exclaimed. I think I have
a leg stuck in my throat,
another mumbled. Just good,
clean, buggy fun.
Its soothing to be reminded
there are people in the world
who love things you dont care
about. Surrounded by entomologists, both professional
and amateur, I found myself
feeling like a bee in an anthill.
Id spent nearly all my time
in my own beehive, doing the
same waggle dance as all the
other bees, feeling like the hive
was the entire world.
Now I was buzzing around
an anthill, full of ants with
ant-hopes and ant-dreams and
ant-aspirations. Id been living
among bees and thinking I was
competing against everyone,
forgetting there were more than
just bees outside of my hive.
I also can only write in bug
analogies now. Sorry.

Define entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship
means more than
making money.

ntrepreneurship
is a buzzword that
increasingly is used
by anyone wishing to connote innovation, newness
and success. According
to Merriam-Webster, an
entrepreneur is a person
who starts a business and
is willing to risk loss in
order to make money.
While the assumption
of risk might be central
to entrepreneurship, the
definition in practice has
grown to encompass more
than money-making.
The term has even
become its own multi-

disciplinary field.
The entrepreneurship
minor in the College of
Arts and Sciences teaches
that entrepreneurship is
about making change in
creative and efficient ways.
Buck Goldstein, one
of the early builders of
the program, co-wrote a
book called Engines of
Innovation that suggests,
as Goldstein said in an
interview with The Daily
Tar Heel, The University
can have a greater impact
on the worlds biggest
problems if it incorporates
an entrepreneurial mindset into its culture.
The authors refer to
a definition of entrepreneurship that has nothing
to do with private capital

or commercialization.
Broadening this definition is, in many ways, a
good thing students can
get access to tools to make
everything from non-profits
to free apps a reality. Highly
efficient problem solving
can take many forms.
Is there a risk of overapplication? UNC must have
a common language.
Words are important
without knowing exactly
what they mean, we risk
taking away their power.
Seek the definitions of
terms you are assumed to
understand. By reflecting
on buzzwords like entrepreneurship, diversity and
empowerment, we can
better reflect on what they
mean.

HB2: risky business

With HB2, vote your
conscience, not just
your wallet.

ouse Bill 2 has

and will continue
to cost North
Carolina and its taxpayers
money. This conclusion
appears to have stymied
support for the bill, as
Gov. Pat McCrory recently
withdrew the lawsuit he
filed against the federal
government over HB2, citing litigation costs.
While the rising costs
of maintaining HB2 will
hopefully lead to it being
overturned, this consideration should not come
at the expense of forgetting the enormous moral

imperative that inspired

such backlash against the
bill when it first passed.
At its crux, HB2 is a discriminatory piece of legislation, and an assault against
the agency and humanity
of gender non-conforming
people.Furthermore, all
N.C. voters who choose to
not vote or support candidates who do not endorse
repealing the bill are
complicit in upholding an
unjust system.
That is not to say economic considerations are
not valid or necessary
leaders in other progressive causes like the Civil
Rights movement recognized the power of punishing ignorance through
economic means.

When weighing metrics

that are easily calculated,
like decreases in state
G.D.P., to levy arguments
against HB2, we must also
recognize the emotional
burden borne by those facing discrimination.
It was not the financial
ramifications of HB2 that
led to public outcry. It
was the fact that democracy was bypassed in an
attempt to seek political
retribution, while categorically undermining the
civil liberties of citizens.
When stepping into
the voting booth, North
Carolinians should not
look just at the hole in
their wallets. They must
also consider the cost of
dehumanization.

A stand-up job

Skittlegate

Chapel Hill has so many

cool, local activities and
artists, why
would you not
visit them? This
down thumb
goes to the
people that willingly go to
Starbucks over Open Eye,
the people who drive to
Raleigh to see Brad Paisley
over a local noise artist. We
are in college. We should be
more pretentious.

We sincerely thank the

Campus Y and UNC Siren for
organizing last
Fridays protest
and standing
for survivors of
sexual assault. In
the wake of the Universitys
unjust handling of the Robinson case, it was important
to see people stand together in solidarity against
sexual violence. We send
you love and gratitude.

Donald Trump Jr. is trying

his best! It can be hard to
tell the difference between
Skittles and
people. Junior
probably doesnt
even eat Skittles he
typically dislikes anything of
color. We are here to help.
Skittles are candy, people
are people. Maybe if he
stops tweeting so much, he
can see the distinction.

Rain, rain stay

Worst of times

GA stalemate

We the mole people of

The Daily Tar Heel enjoy
the dark and
cloudy weather
covering North
Carolina right
now. It makes it
easier to walk around campus playing sad folk music
and not smiling at all the
people standing in the Pit.
Call us anti-social, but hey,
at least we dont let the rain
keep us down.

Isnt it insane that when

this election season started,
current seniors
were sophomores? Soon
we can breathe
free. No more
political advertisements, no
more hateful comments.
Just a war-mongering president (regardless of who
wins) for the next four years!
And early commentary on
the 2020 election.

Whenever the North Carolina General Assembly is not

in session, we
are left feeling
strange. It means
two things: one,
they cannot pass
any more laws that damage
the reputation of our state.
But two, it means they cannot even try to repeal laws
hurting our state. Lets just
hope most, if not all, Republicans lose their elections.

TO THE EDITOR:
Yesterday a man was
lynched.
Black Students at
Historically Black Colleges
are tired of police violence;
students believe that there
is a war on Black America.
In response to the endless war on Black people,
Black University has called
on HBCUs across North
Carolina to speak in opposition to police violence
In 2015, the police
killed 306 black men, (that
doesnt include all the
queer and trans folk as well
as the black women), this
year the police have killed
at least 193 black men.
Yesterday, Keith Lamont
Scott, a 43-year-old black
man was murdered by the
police who mistook his
book for a gun.
When did reading a book
warrant a death for black
people?
Terence Crutcher, a
40-year-old black man was
murdered by the police
because he was having car
trouble and called on his
public servants to help him.
When did car trouble
warrant death for black
people?
Trye King, a 13-year-old
baby boy was murdered by
the police for playing with
a BB gun.
When did a child playing
with a BB gun warrant a
death for black people?
We the students understand that there is a war
on Black America and
refuse to allow the devalue
of black life continue. We
stand with the resistance of
the people in Charlotte as
they fight back against the
police state.
We are also aware that
they are not isolated incidents and police violence
is a national epidemic.
Black people have died at
the hands of the Durham
Police Department, the
Raleigh Police Department
and so many more and they
are not held accountable.
We say no more, we charge
genocide. We say stop the
war on Black America. Stop
the war on HBCUs.
We are demanding that
our institutions administration speak out against the
war on Black America.
We are demanding that
our campus police speak
out against the deplorable
acts their peers are committing across this country.
Join our HBCU students
across the state as we stand
in solidarity with the family
of Keith Lamont Scott.

North Carolinas HBCUs.

Israel is standing in
the way of peace
TO THE EDITOR:
As a Member of Knesset,
my job is to speak out on
behalf of the best interests
of my fellow citizens and
my country.
These days, I am truly

alarmed by how much

those interests are being
undermined by the rightwing leaders of Israels settler movement. These leaders prioritize Jewish control
of Palestinian land over
Israels security, democracy
and Jewish values.
If Israel is going to
remain a secure democracy
and a Jewish state, we need
to reach a two-state agreement with the Palestinians.
Most Israelis understand
that which is why they
would oppose the annexation of the territory that
needs to form the basis of a
future Palestinian state.
Yet unbeknownst to the
average Israeli, the settler
movement and its powerful allies in the Benjamin
Netanyahu government
have been quietly laying the
groundwork for annexation in the West Banks
Area C. In 2016, they have
already demolished more
Palestinian homes than in
all of last year. They have
seized private Palestinian
land and made it extremely
difficult for Palestinians to
remain there. New housing
construction in the West
Bank is up 16 percent this
year while new housing
construction within Green
Line Israel has decreased.
This process is led in
part by influential rightwing N.G.Os (like the
group Regavim), which
have been systematically
mapping out strategically
located Palestinian villages
like Susya and lobbying the Israeli government
to demolish them. Their
goal is simple to destroy
the dream of the two-state
solution.
Incredibly, Regavim and
their fellow settler groups
often benefit from tax-free
contributions coming from
the USA even while they
actively oppose the twostate solution, undermining
key U.S. and Israeli interests.
Thats why J Street
has called on the U.S.
Department of the Treasury
to review whether the
activities of Regavim should
make them ineligible to
receive tax-free contributions.
I am convinced that
Prime Minister Netanyahu
is leading Israel down a
disastrous path, putting our
future at great risk. Many
important voices in Israel
are beginning to realize
this.
We cant let that happen.
In the Knesset, my party
and our allies are going to
do everything that we can
to stand up to the settler
movement and groups like
Regavim. Were going to
fight for the two-state solution, an end to the occupation and an Israel that can
live in prosperity, justice
and peace.
Im so grateful to J Street
supporters, and to all those
Jews around the world who
love Israel and know that
supporting Israelis means
standing up for diplomacy
and peace and speaking
out when our governments
policies put our values and
security at risk.
Michal Rozin
Member of Knesset
