Theres something wrong with this kid

UNCs Jessie Aney goes the
extra mile in her preparation
By Jeremy Vernon
Sports Editor

At the end of a long driveway in

Rochester, Minnesota, a rebound
net the size of a trampoline stands
upright. Chances are if you were
looking for Jessie Aney when she was
growing up, this is where youd find
her. Its often where her parents did.
In the dark. All alone. It didnt
matter. Shed stay there racket in
hand hitting a tennis ball against
the net and chasing it down to hit it
again.
Jessie played games to pass the
time. Shed see how many balls she
could hit in a row her record was
well over 1,000.
When Grand Slam tournaments
came around, shed look at the draw,
take someone out of the bracket
and put herself in. Then shed play
matches against her imaginary competition.
Tennis is one of the few sports
that places the onus of success on the
shoulders of just one person. Where
you go is just as far as where you take
yourself. Jessie latched on to this
characteristic from a young age.
I think Ive always really enjoyed
that about sports, that your hard
work can pay off. I think in individual sports its really amplified,
because its all you. Its what youre
doing off the court and on the court,
she said.
The chance to see herself improve
led Jessie to spend hours at a time
by herself, honing her craft in tennis
as well as in ice hockey, which she
naturally picked up during the winters in Minnesota.
Crazy? She knows you might

think that and she promises she

isnt. But if she has a chance to win
something, she said she is going to
endure as much as possible to make
it happen.

Drive to succeed
Jessie ran up the stairs from the
basement and into the kitchen to try
and find her father, Tom.
Her hands were bleeding. During
the few hours before, she was stationed in the basement, working on
her stickhandling.
The friction of the wooden stick
rubbed her hands raw, and when she
showed Tom, his reaction was one
that most parents would have.
I was thinking, Oh my gosh. But
she just wanted them taped up so
she could go back down and stickhandle some more, he said.
I was just like, O.K. Theres
something wrong with this kid.
When Jessie came up to get her
hands bandaged, she was in the
middle of an intense training session.
Her older sister, Katie, was going to
move to a higher-level hockey team,
one that Jessie would probably have
to wait a few years to join.
Jessie was only seven years old at
the time, but she still spent the better part of her days firing hundreds
of pucks into a tarp that Tom had
put up in the basement.
Jessie ended up making the team
with Katie, and over the next few
years the two began to form an
impressive tandem on the ice. But
while the two were equally imposing
in the rink, Jessie began to outpace
her sister off of it.
Katie played tennis, too, and

quickly realized that her younger

sister was going to surpass her in
ability. She still remembers the last
time she beat Jessie.
When Jessie was six years old and
Katie was eight, they went to a park
in Rochester to play a game. First to
10 points. Win by two.
Katie eventually came out on top
of, 21-19.
I remember thinking thats
probably the last time Ill ever beat

her, Katie said. So I enjoyed the

moment.
Over the next few years, Jessie
rarely lost to anyone not just her
sister. She quickly became one of the
top youth tennis players in the country, and was even named the 2010
Sports Illustrated SportsKid of the
Year, the first girl to earn the honor.
In 2011, she won the Minnesota
AA singles state title as a member
of the Century High girls tennis

team at just 13 years old. She was

the youngest ever to do so. The next
year, she teamed up with her sister
to win the doubles tournament.

Moving on
Jessie knew before her senior
year in high school that it would be

Carolina Cupboard gets new location, freezers ACLU

seeks
HB2
delay
The organization will
move locations within
Avery Residence Hall.
Dominic Andrews
Staff Writer

Carolina Cupboard, the on campus food pantry, will move to a bigger location for the upcoming school
year.
The new space is down the hall
from their current location in Avery
Residence Hall. The new location,
however, will be larger and have
more capabilities.
Shawnna Gladney, chair of
Carolina Cupboard, said they have
been planning to move locations
and worked with the Residence
Hall Association to find a bigger
space.
The purpose of our relocation is
so we can move to a larger space to
include perishable food items, she
said.
Shawnna Gladney said Carolina
Cupboard will renovate the room
and, through a grant, have refrigerators, freezers, customized bins and
shelves allowing them to collect
and distribute perishable food items.
The grant came from the Carolina
Parents Council.
We received partial funding for
approximately $5,000, Gladney
said.

She said the new room will be

about five times bigger than their
current location, allowing for more
food storage. She said she wants
to paint the walls of the new room
with food pyramids and other
images that encourage healthy eating.
Shawnna Gladney said she is
excited that Carolina Cupboard will
now be able to provide perishable
food, because it offers a healthier
option for students facing food insecurity.
When we think about food,
and foods that are available to
students, there is a high correlation between poor nutrition and
health and consumption of perishable food items, Gladney said. I
wanted us to not only be able to
provide resources to students, but
to be able to give them nutritious
options.
Taylor Bates, residence hall association president, works closely with
Carolina Cupboard and has provided them with non-perishable foods
in the past.
I think it is a very exciting
expansion, Bates said. I mean
obviously now that they are able to
have perishable foods it changes
the logistics of how we do food
drives.
Bates said the expansion will
increase the visibility of Carolina
Cupboard across campus, helping
more students.

is in the net.
We just have a lot of confidence
in Caylee and a lot of confidence in
Meg, Levy said. I think the team
enjoys playing with either and we
are a team effort and we are going to
live and die by that.
Team effort means attackers feed
off the momentum from a big save,
no matter who is in the net, and
translate that into goals on offense.

House Bill 2 faces potential

injunction following a complaint
lodged this Monday by a group
of equal rights activists from
North Carolina. The injunction
would delay enforcement of the
now infamous law which restricts
bathroom use for transgender
individuals, as well as limiting
anti-discrimination ordinances.
Among those lodging the
complaint are a 20-year-old
student at UNC-Greensboro,
an associate dean at the North
Carolina Central University
School of Law, the American
Civil Liberties Union of North
Carolina and Joaqun Carcao,
an employee of the UNCChapel Hill Behavior and
Technology Lab. The Equality
NC Foundation was originally
a plaintiff on the lawsuit, but
withdrew to focus on their
TurnOUT! NC projects and educational work.
Were still in support of the
lawsuit and of ACLU North
Carolina and of Lambda Legal
and all of the work they do,
said Ben Graumann, Director
of Communications for Equality
NC. We had our lobby day
today here at the North
Carolina General Assembly and
we had lots of folks coming out.
Its been over two months now
that weve been fighting HB2
and people are still interested
and people are still fighting

the hardest parts about starting

Ward, Waters put success before stats

Both have had success
for UNC womens lacrosse
during the 2016 season.
By John Bauman
Staff Writer

The North Carolina womens

lacrosse team has a national championship-winning goalie and the
reigning National Goalie of the Year.
The problem, or the good news
depending on how you look at it
is they arent the same player.
In 2013, the Tar Heels rode a
streak of hot goalie play from Megan
Ward all the way to the programs

first national title. She made six

saves, including three in overtime, to
preserve the win over Maryland in
the final.
Ward looked poised to dominate
for the next three years, but Caylee
Waters joined the team in 2014.
Given the opportunity, Waters shined
and was named 2015 National Goalie
of the Year by several outlets.
If this was football, and there
were two quarterbacks, there would
be media controversy and fans
clamoring for one or the other. But,
shielded from the limelight, Coach
Jenny Levy doesnt have trouble
managing her two talented goalies.
She just has to manage two great
friends and teammates.

I think the team enjoys playing with either and we are

a team effort and we are going to live and die by that.
Jenny Levy
UNC womens lacrosse coach

Credit my players for just being

awesome teammates and understanding that and continuing to
show up everyday and work hard ...
Levy said. No one cares about their
stats and individual awards. We are
ultimately working as a team to get
to the next step.
Both players obviously want to
play, but they also understand their
roles as co-goalies and that the team
comes first and the team and
Levy have confidence no matter who

This isnt flying, this is falling with style.

Drakes Top 5 Moments on Saturday Night Live

By Megan Maloney
Staff Writer

On Saturday, the world

gifted us with another Drake
appearance on Saturday Night
Live. Appearing as both the
host and the musical guest,
Drake brought his humor and
talent to the SNL stage without
missing a beat. The crowd was
clearly thrilled when Drake
appeared to introduce Rihanna
to join him in his opening
monologue. However, the actual guest was almost as surpris-

ing. Drake quickly donned a

wig and sang in Rihannas signature style, even addressing
some dating rumors. During
SNLs Weekend Update, Jay
Pharoah discussed a secret
rappers meeting and covered
all of the great rappers with
his impressions. The moment
Drake came out to argue with
Pharoah about the accuracy of
his voice was spot on.

N.C. General Assembly gets musical

The opera confronts
transgender and racial
issues in North Carolina.
By Jenni Ciesielski
Arts and Entertainment Editor

When UNC School of the Arts

graduates Charles Osborne and Leo
Hurley wrote The Body Politic,
they envisioned it being performed
on a Broadway stage not the
North Carolina General Assembly
floor. But on May 19, theyll be at the
state capitol to present their show to
the public.
Osborne said the intentions of
performing The Body Politic, an
opera about a transgender man
migrating to North Carolina from
Afghanistan, is to further discussion
about House Bill 2.
The goal is to show how, despite
perceived differences, were all one
human race at the end of the day,
he said.
Although it recently debuted this
month, The Body Politic has been
a long time in the making for Hurley,
who started writing it eight years ago.
I loved the idea of a transgender
character from the Ancient Greek
poem Metamorphoses, but I wanted
to update it to modern times, he said.
After learning about bacha posh
a practice used by some Afghan
families in which they raise their
daughters as boys to further their
girls chances of getting an education
Hurley changed the story to surround an Afghan transgender male
coming to Chapel Hill in the midst
of the Afghan war.
It just humanized the whole conflict for me, Osborne said. I think
weve sort of conditioned ourselves
since 9/11 to see that part of the
world, particularly Afghanistan, as
just being messed up and that they

are not like us.

Although its main setting is in
North Carolina, The Body Politic
was not originally intended to be
performed there. After debuting
in Boston with the citys Juventas
Ensemble, Hurley and Osborne
planned to take the show straight to
New York but the passing of HB2
changed their plans.
Here we have a bill that has
transgender discrimination under
the argument of protecting the
rights of private businesses,
Osborne said. We have a show
about transgender discrimination in
North Carolina where the argument
is This is our private house.
Hurley said the decision to go
back to their native state was a quick
and relatively easy one.
Within a couple of days, we were
like its just the obvious thing to do,
he said. We filled out an application,
and were approved very quickly to
use the auditorium on the third floor
of the General Assembly building.
They didnt make the trip without
help the two set up a GoFundMe
page to get them and their performers
to Raleigh that has raised more than
$3,000. They also received support
from N.C. legislators, despite having
opposing views on the bill.
Its wonderful to live in a community where, even though we may
not be passing laws that benefit
everyone, we are able to have a space
for civil discourse, Hurley said.
Graduate music professor
Andrea Bohlman said she thinks
The Body Politic performance at
the State Capitol is a great way to
spark discussion.
I think any show, or live performance, that happens in real time as
a public performance creates a space
where developing conversations
and opinions around that product is
shared in a communal way it facilitates complex conversation, she said.

COURTESY OF SCOTT BUMP

Leo Hurley, one of the writers for The Body Politic, will present his show to the N.C. General Assembly on May 19.

Although they are presenting the

opera in a political space, neither
Hurley nor Osborne see it as an act
of government protest.
We have people wondering, Are
you activists now? Osborne said.
No, were just citizens who havent
given up on our government
citizens who want to use our art to
make the world a better place.
Hurley said he doesnt think their
purpose at the Capitol differs much
from that of state legislators.

We are doing what hopefully legislators are doing by having conversations about the issue, he said. Ours
are just with tunes you can hum.
Osborne said he hopes the conversations surrounding the shows issues
wont end when its performance does.
The experience of the show doesnt
end when the curtain falls thats the
beginning, Osborne said. The second
half is when you go home and take in
what youve just seen.
Osborne said he hopes his opera

will leave a lasting impact that goes

beyond House Bill 2s repeal.
Lasting change starts from
within, which sounds so dopey, but
its not, he said.
If were gonna stop discriminatory laws from being passed, we
have to stop the discrimination from
where it starts which we can do
by humanizing those who have been
treated otherwise.

Student Stores prepares for privatization

Employees were
offered positions at
Barnes and Noble.
Sofia Edelman
Summer Editor

Nearly three weeks after it

was announced Barnes and
Noble College would operate UNC Student Stores, the
management transition process has begun.
On May 9, Brad Ives,
associate vice chancellor
for campus enterprises,
sent student and part-time
employees of the Student
Stores an email from Vice
President of Stores at
Barnes and Noble College
Paul Maloney. The email
informed these employees
they would have the opportunity to continue their
employment with Barnes
and Noble College.
Barnes and Noble College
has previously committed
to hiring all current fulltime bookstore employees.
I am writing to inform you
that wed like to extend this
commitment to those who
are not full-time as well,
Maloney said in the email.
As a former student
worker myself I am really

excited to get to work with all

of you and my greatest hope
is upon graduation you may
consider a career at Barnes
and Noble.
Maloney then instructed
student and part-time
employees to fill out an
application to transfer their
employment to Barnes and
Noble College.
In the email sent to
these employees, Ives said
Maloney had assured him
the application process was
not meant to decide if anyone would lose their jobs,
but to transfer employee
information to Barnes and
Noble College.
Youve got to give your
name and your address and
employee information and
things like that to an employer, Ives said. Its literally just
a formality to go through so
people will still have their
same jobs.
Graduate Emma
Biggerstaff, who was a student manager at the Student
Stores, said she felt she and
her co-workers were kept in
the dark until decisions about
the Stores future were made.
A lot of the wording in the
emails weve been forwarded
from Barnes and Noble has
been kind of vague to the
point where you cant really

pinpoint what theyre saying or the nuances of what

theyre saying, Biggerstaff
said. Its basically just vague
enough to keep everyone
confused to the point of not
being able to do anything
about it.
Ives said the physical transition of management will
hopefully not disrupt workers schedules or orientation.
Well have a small shut
down for the actual transition. Weve got to close
the Store for the day to
do a final count on inventory. That will happen on a
Friday. Friday June 24, Ives
said.
As for renovations, those
for the most part will not
begin until the Christmas
holiday, Ives said.
Theyll operate while
renovation goes on in place.
Theres a small chance if we
can get approval we might
start renovation of the textbook space after the fall rush
is completed, he said.
Ives said Barnes and Noble
College will use the same art
supply company as Student
Stores historically has but
vendors for other products
might change.
There will probably be
a few changes in vendors
because theyll have differ-

ent relationships, Ives said.

There may be some different
manufactures with a chip and
dip bowl.
Biggerstaff said she hopes
the transition process will go
smoothly.

Its been interesting

I guess being part of the
whole process and hearing
multiple opinions about it.
I didnt ever talk to anyone
who wanted it to happen,
she said. In terms of student

body and even faculty and

University employees, everyone seemed from the start
that they wanted to push
back against it.

Fighting for new class Kids get meals for the summer
UNC student started
a petition to add selfdefense to LFIT.
Anna Freeman
Staff Writer

A UNC student is petitioning the Department of

Exercise and Sport Science
to offer a new lifetime fitness foundation, or LFIT,
course focused on selfdefense.
Rising sophomore Kelsey
Woody said she was inspired
to start the petition after she
was near the April 15 armed
robbery near Ehringhaus
Residence Hall.
Woody said she ran into
the victim after the robbery
and realized how isolated she
was after the victim told her
of the attack.
It could have easily been
me, and I realized I had no
idea how to defend myself,
Woody said.
Woody said she and other
students need to know how
to protect themselves in
dangerous situations.

Woody said although selfdefense is currently offered as a

class in the Physical Education
Activities Program, she feels
students are not encouraged to
take it because these courses do
not count toward graduation
hours. However, all UNC students are required to have an
LFIT credit to graduate.
I feel like it would be much
smarter to place it somewhere
where it will be much more
accessible, Woody said.
Director of the Lifetime
Fitness and Physical Activity
Programs Becca Battaglini said
for self-defense to become an
LFIT it would need a serious
overhaul in how the course is
taught.
While self-defense is obviously an important skill to
have, it doesnt have a cardio
component or any of those
major fitness components
that we try to offer with our
other Lifetime Fitness courses, Battaglini said.
Battaglini said a major
concern with starting a selfdefense LFIT is finding someone qualified to teach the
course as all LFIT courses are
taught by graduate students.

I definitely think its a possibility. We offer a Brazilian

jiu-jitsu Lifetime Fitness
course, and its blended well
within to our curriculum,
Battaglini said.
Rising junior Daphne
Knudsen said she signed
Woodys petition because she
took the self-defense Physical
Education Activities Program
course and she learned skills
others should be able to
access in an LFIT.
Its a great class that
should be offered as an LFIT
because its certainly more
practical than lets say, I dont
know, like racquet sports or
whatever else, Knudsen said.
Rising senior Bryce
Edwards said LFIT gives a
variety of ways for students to
get exercise and a self-defense
course would add a layer of
practical skills.
Even if like 20 people
do, theyre going to be more
informed, theyre going to
know the techniques, theyll
tell their friends and its going
to make the campus safer,
Edwards said.

Food for the Summer will

distribute meals during the week
for at-risk children in the area.
By Luke Bollinger
Staff Writer

For many kids, summer is time for camps

and swimming pools but for some families, its a struggle to get food on the table
when school is not in session.
A new program in Chapel Hill-Carrboro
City Schools, Food for the Summer, will
expand the availability of summer meals
for kids who are eligible for free or reduced
lunch in the school system, according to
a statement by Chapel Hill Mayor Pam
Hemminger.
During the school year, 3,300 students
receive free or reduced lunch only 900 of
those students received lunch from the city
lunch program during the summer.
Katie Hug, program coordinator, said the
goal for this summer is to provide weekday
lunches for about 1,500 students.
Chad Simpkins, lead pastor at Varsity
Church in Chapel Hill, has worked for three
years to help provide summer meals for kids
from lower-income families and has now
partnered with Food for the Summer.
Simpkins said the program is dependent
on volunteers. They are needed to transport
meals from the school cafeterias to distribu-

tion sites, distribute meals to children and

set up and break down the sites, Hug said.
She said volunteers are also needed to spend
time with kids and provide a fun and enjoyable atmosphere.
Last summer, there were only four meal
distribution sites in the district, Simpkins
said.
The goal is to identify as many at-risk
kids in the district that we have and try and
find a way to get summer meals to them,
said Liz Cartano, director of dining at
Chartwells, the organization contracted with
Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools to provide
meals to students.
Cartano said the costs of the meals are
covered by Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
Schools, which is then reimbursed by the
USDA. The rest of the expenses are covered by donations. Hug and Simpkins said
so far, the program has received more than
$12,000 total in donations from UNC,
the Chapel Hill-Carrboro YMCA and an
anonymous donor.
Simpkins said those interested in
volunteering can enter their email on
the programs website and a mass email
will be dispersed with details on how
to get involved once the sites have been
approved.
If you really want to make a difference in
the community, here is a great way to do this
without spending any money, he said.

CAPS to receive new positions, possibly location

The new positions
will be added to ease
the referral process.
Colleen Moir
Senior Writer

UNCs Counseling and

Psychological Services will
have four new postdoctoral
social workers in the fall.
In a campus-wide email
focusing on diversity and
inclusion initiatives sent on
April 22, Chancellor Carol
Folt said CAPS has made
strides this year in its cultural
competency trainings it has
offered to its staff, in addition
to the new positions.
Allen OBarr, director of
CAPS, said one of his ongoing
goals is to improve referral
coordination, a process by

her last time playing hockey

competitively, but that didnt
prepare her for the wave of
emotion that hit when she
took to the ice for the last
time.
I remember, just as soon
as the buzzer went off I just
couldnt stop crying. I just
couldnt believe that something that I had been doing
my entire life had come to an
end, Jessie said.
When she finally hung
up her skates, Jessie was
the all-time leader in assists
in the state of Minnesota
and tallied 414 points during her high school career.
She received scholarship
offers from Harvard and
Wisconsin to continue play-

against it.
The preliminary injunction, if approved, will prevent
state officials from implementing House Bill 2 until
both the NC lawsuit against
the Department of Justice
and countersuit against
Governor Pat McCrory and

WOLAX

FROM PAGE 1

I think when our defense

plays well, we play harder,
Sammy Jo Tracy said. So we
really want to connect as a
team fully and when that end
of the field is really picking up

which CAPS staff assist students who require long-term

care in finding therapists in
the community.
Currently, some students
are offered a list of care providers after walk-in appointments at CAPS if they cannot
be treated in the course of a
semester, while others receive
an appointment to help them
reach out to these care providers, OBarr said.
Elizabeth McIntyre, who
is a clinical social worker
and referral coordinator at
CAPS, said currently, referral
coordination appointments
are offered to students whose
needs are most pressing.
Based on our clinical
judgment, or if they have concerns, they are offered referral
coordination, McIntyre said.
Part of it is what they share,
part of it is our own clinical

feel.
With the four new positions, OBarr said CAPS will
be able to move toward their
goal of offering referral coordination for all students who
are referred out. Students
will always have the option
to decline the appointment
but it will be made available to everyone who walks
through the door.
OBarr said this increase
in resources represents CAPS
doing the best it can with the
money the University is able
to offer.
We hear students dont
want to be referred out,
OBarr said. We cant do anything about that, but what we
can do is make that process as
easy as possible.
OBarr said $144,000 has
been approved for the salaries
of the four new employees in

ing, but her heart and her

mind were always set on
tennis.
Because the level of competition for tennis was so
low in Minnesota, Jessie
and her family decided in
2014 the best thing for her
would be to graduate early.
In November 2014, Jessie
signed her National Letter of
Intent to play tennis at North
Carolina, and in the fall of
2015 she enrolled at the age
of 17.
For Jessie, the choice to
come to UNC was an easy
one. She said she liked being
challenged both mentally
and physically by tennis as
an individual, but was also
interested in testing herself
academically.
North Carolina gave her
the option to do both.

The next step

That should not be a suggestion that we

think this is a one-year project.
Winston Crisp
Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs

This is a space where I

think we can do better and
need to do better, Crisp said.
These post-docs will be making sure that when we do
transfer people from shortterm to long-term care, that
we do it better.
OBarr said he looks forward to what these interns can
do with his limited budget.
In the absence of those
resources, what can we do
with what weve got, and
what request can I put in
to the University thats not
absurd, whats reasonable
that can help me fix not the
underlying problem, but fix
the sense that someone is
just being passed on, OBarr
said. I want to alleviate that
sense. Thats what I want to
fix.

the upcoming year, and they

will begin work on August 1.
This allocation of money is
not permanent only temporary, for the upcoming year.
Offices for the workers are
not yet ready or located.
OBarr said over 100 applications for the four open
positions were submitted.
The positions are set up to be
one-year internships.
Vice Chancellor for
Student Affairs Winston
Crisp said the money for the
positions was freed up from
other campus initiatives.
Its not new money, Crisp
said. It is moving stuff around,
money that we didnt spend

on other things, thats why its

a one-year thing. That should
not be a suggestion that we
think this is a one-year project.
Crisp said the task of finding space for the new hires will
be a challenge, but feasible.
We have used up most
of the usable footprint. Its
not just CAPS anywhere
we can hire new people, we
have challenges for where to
put them, he said. We will
figure out a way that makes it
easiest for students to access
them.
OBarr said two options
are on the table: to renovate
within CAPS current space,
or to open a satellite clinic.

In an individual sport like

tennis, sometimes a match
can be as much between you
and yourself as it is between
you and your opponent. Jessie
found this out firsthand when
she began her first season at
UNC.
In the qualifying round of
the Riviera/ITA All-American
Championships in October,
Jessie was slated to face off
against Ellen Perez, the No.
29 singles player in the country. Naturally, Jessie started
asking her teammates about
her opponent.
I heard about her from
other people and they were
like, Yeah, shed be a pro
player if she didnt have all
these injuries, but shes back
and shes healthy now, she

said.
When Jessie finally stepped
out on the court she had
already lost the match in
her mind. It took about 25
minutes for Perez to win in
straight sets.
After that showing, Jessie
made it a priority to keep having faith in herself, no matter
the ranking of her opponent.
Jessie also made a similar
change off the court. Before
she came to UNC, she was
constantly focused on trying
to beat people in every aspect
of her life, not just tennis.
She said, I just kind of was
like, Well, I just have to kind
of accept what Im good at
and what Im going to pursue
in my life... Just kind of making everything else besides my
tennis more of a competition
between me and myself yes-

terday, as opposed to between

other people.
As the year has gone on,
Jessie has seen the changes
shes made mentally have an
impact on her performance
on the court. In ACC play,
Jessie earned a perfect 13-0
singles record, and in the conference tournament, she won
each of her singles matches
to help UNC win its first ACC
Tournament title since 2011.
Shes somebody that Im
confident every single match
that shes gonna pull out a
win, no matter if shes playing
well, no matter if shes playing
poorly, said junior and fellow
teammate Hayley Carter.
But the story isnt over just
yet. North Carolina continues its NCAA Tournament
run against Virginia today
and Jessie will compete

in the NCAA Singles

Championships starting on
May 25.
She might not have the
rebound net or the tarp in
her garage anymore, but
that hasnt stopped her from
devoting hours of time outside of practice to the sport.
When her teammates took
her out to dinner a few weeks
ago for her birthday, Jessie
took the time to eat a piece of
cake, but then decided at
10 p.m. that she wanted to
go for a run by herself.
Crazy? She knows you
might think that. But she
knows she has the chance to
become one of the top players
in the country, and she said
she will endure as much as
possible to make that happen.
@jbo_vernon
sports@dailytarheel.com

other top state and UNCsystem officials are settled.

This proposed injunction
comes in response to these
conflicting lawsuits, which
will determine the constitutionality of NCs House
Bill 2. According to the
complaint, Plaintiffs seek a
declaratory judgment that
HB2 violates their or their
members constitutional

and statutory rights to equal

protection, liberty, dignity,
autonomy and privacy, as
well an injunction preliminarily and permanently
enjoining enforcement by of
HB2 by Defendants.
The enforcement of House
Bill 2, initially passed March
23, has been controversial,
as critics of the bill feel it is
legalizing trans-antagonism.

Since passage of the bill,

the governors of New York,
Washington, Minnesota
and Vermont have banned
nonessential travel to North
Carolina and businesses
like PayPal have withdrawn
expansion plans for branches
in the state.
At a press conference in
Raleigh on Monday, Chris
Brook, legal director for

ACLU North Carolina, said,

We are asking the court
to overturn House Bill 2
because it is unconstitutional, because it violates
the protection and due
process clauses of the 14th
Amendment, because it discriminates on the basis of the
sex and sexual orientation
and because it is an invasion
of privacy for transgender

men and women.

We dont want this fight to
be necessary, but legislation
such as this and injustice such
as this demands that we take
action, said Carcao at the
press conference in Raleigh on
Monday. Its so much more
than a restroom. Its about
dignity. Its about respect.

their momentum, I think it is

really easy for us to capitalize.
On Sunday against Duke,
North Carolina capitalized
on the momentum of a goalie
change. Ward started the
game and struggled, prompting Coach Levy to switch to
Waters with 9:40 left in the

first half with the score tied

6-6. Waters came in, recorded five saves and allowed
only four more goals, leading
the Tar Heels to a 15-10 victory.
You would think it would
be tough for Waters to come
off the bench and into the

goal in the middle of a close

NCAA Tournament game, but
she finds motivation to always
stay prepared for whenever
her name is called.
It could be hard to stay
mentally ready, but when you
are on the sidelines, you want
to win it just as much as the

people on the field, Waters

said. So, you are always
ready, always mentally ready,
because you just want to win.
The want to win thats
what comes first for Ward
and Waters, not stats or
playing time. Both goalies
have shown they deserve to

be out on the field in crucial

moments and have sacrificed
by sharing the net with a
teammate.
But with the Tar Heels on
a 14-game winning streak, its
clear the team is better for it.

New budget bill increases teacher pay

N.C. 41st in teacher
pay; some say more
changes needed.
By Cole Stanley
State and National editor

On Monday, the
North Carolina House of
Representatives released this
years budget plan. The proposed plan would make several
substantive changes including
repealing excise taxation on
manufacturing machinery, providing a tax cut to the majority
of taxpayers who make more
than $95,000 annually, and a
pay raise for North Carolina
teachers. This raise would average 4.1 percent of current salaries and raise average teacher
pay to $50,000 by 2018.

Our economic future

depends on a well-educated
workforce ready for college or
a career. To achieve this, we
have to improve basic math,
reading and writing skills in
the early grades, restore discipline to the classroom, and
support our teachers, said
Rep. Nelson Dollar, R-Wake,
who was the Houses lead
budget writer in a statement.
Opponents of the legislatures stance on education
policy in recent years are worried this provision is a reactionary measure prompted by the
prospect of a highly competitive election year in the traditionally purple Tar Heel state,
according to Rodney Ellis,
president of the North Carolina
Association of Educators.
Now, because its an election year, our state elected

leaders are starting to hear

the sound of the beat. We
need more than an election
year plan. Our public school
students and educators
deserve a comprehensive plan
to elevate North Carolina
from the bottom tier of the
country, said Ellis.
Recent research from
the National Education
Association (NEA) suggests
North Carolina may be falling
behind in many key areas of
education funding in recent
years. For example, North
Carolina ranks 45th in the
nation in per capita expenditures on education by state
and local government, at
$1,440 per capita, per year.
For comparison, the District
of Columbia spends $3,662
per capita, per year.
The report from the NEA

also reveals although North

Carolina has recently made a
jump in teacher pay rankings
from 42nd in the nation
last year to 41st this year,
there is a strongly negative
trend in the last decade in
terms of teacher pay. Overall,
teacher pay in North Carolina
has decreased 10.2 percent in
the last ten years, the fourth
worst decline in the country.
Critics like Alexandra
Sirota, director of the N.C.
Budget and Tax Center, argue
this trend, that resulted both
from budget cuts and a failure to adjust teachers salaries
in correspondence with costof-living increases, cannot be
remedied by the insufficient
measures proposed in the
Houses plan.
When it comes to building prosperity in North

Carolina, the House has set

its sights even lower than the
Governors already limited
budget. The House decision
to use an arbitrary, flawed
formula to determine spending wont meet the needs of
communities and families
across the state, said Sirota.
In pursuing more tax cuts
over investment, the House is
undercutting the foundations
of a strong economy. The
House budget will not meet
the needs of North Carolina,

such as improving classroom

experiences for every child,
revitalizing the main streets
of every community and promoting the health and wellbeing of families and seniors.
It is time for policymakers to
get serious about the unmet
needs in North Carolina and
pursue public investment
over tax cuts that benefit the
rich at the expense of everyone else, she said.

County budget in progress

The budget would
allocate funds to
transit, higher wages.
By Zoe Schaver
City Editor

The county managers recommended Orange County

budget for fiscal year 20162017 prioritizes affordable
housing, transit and a livable
wage for county employees,
according to a presentation
before the Orange County
Board of Commissioners on
May 5.
At a public hearing on the
budget on May 12, residents
expressed concern that the
budget provided only $1 million in additional funding
to Orange County Schools,
compared to the $1.7 million
increase that was requested.
Two public hearings and
four Board of Commissioners
work sessions are scheduled
to finalize the budget by June
21. The next public hearing
will take place May 19.
Commissioner Penny

Rich said while the board of

commissioners will take residents concerns into account,
Orange County has consistently provided its schools
with high funding relative to
other counties.
Orange County is and has
been number one or two in
the state for local funding of
schools for over 20 years,
Rich said in an email.
According to the 2016
Local School Finance Study
by the Public School Forum of
North Carolina, in the 20132014 school year, Orange
County spent $4,355 per
student, the highest of any
county in the state and nearly
$3,000 more per student
than the state average of
$1,500.
Efforts to promote wage
fairness in the recommended
budget include a total wage
increase of three percent for
county employees over the
course of the fiscal year. The
budget also allocates more
than $300,000 to maintain Orange Countys status
as a certified living wage
employer.

For the 2016-2017 fiscal

year, Orange County Living
Wage has calculated an
increase of $0.39 per hour
in the living wage rate for
Orange County to a total of
$13.15 per hour.
The Board of County
Commissioners also identified salary compression, or
the mismatch of employee
salaries to their qualifications,
as a major issue. The budget
allocates $500,000 to begin a
multi-year process of reducing salary compression.
The recommended budget
recognizes lack of access to
transit as a main barrier to
county services and recommends the creation of a county transit department that
would report to the county
managers office.
In addition, the budget
allocates $68,000 to create
new fare boxes on Orange
County Public Transit buses.
The boxes will accept bus
passes and prepaid cards to
improve upon the current
system where riders pay
with cash.
Another policy priority

established by the commissioners is affordable housing. The

recommended budget increases funding for affordable housing programs by $236,600,
including urgent home repair,
rehabilitation and home ownership programs, bringing
the total allocation of funding
toward affordable housing to
$1.2 million.
In the realm of education,
the recommended budget
eliminates the fair funding
program, which split funding
equally among school districts, in favor of health and
safety service contracts that
will provide school resource
officers to middle and high
schools and a public health
nurse to every school facility.
This change requires an
addition of $1.4 million in
funding on top of the $1.9
million already allocated for
the fair funding program.
Other aspects of the new
budget include enhancements
to OC Alerts, the current
public emergency notification
system for Orange County.

FEATURED ONLINE READER COMMENT

Bill 873
is an
attack on
HBCUs

Those fake classes were set up to benefit

womans basketball? Only the NCAA would
believe that.

ust when we thought

North Carolina couldnt
be any more bigoted
with the recent passing of
HB2, an anti-LBTQ law, here
we are yet again. The North
Carolina General Assembly
has introduced a bill called
the Access to Affordable
College Education Act. This
sounds really great, right?
Plot twist this bill actually
serves as a means to drastically
decrease funding for the states
Historically Black Colleges and
Universities (HBCUs).
Schools affected by Senate
Bill 873 are Winston-Salem
State University, UNCPembroke, Fayetteville State
University, Elizabeth City
State University, and Western
Carolina University. Notice
anything about the schools
listed? I think Western
Carolina was thrown in the
mix to distract from the fact
that four out of the five schools
are historically geared towards
educating and supporting
Black and Native American
college students. The bill
would result in these schools
having a tuition of $500 a
semester for in-state students,
and only $2500 a semester for
out-of-state students. Carolina
students probably make more
than that in work-study opportunities each semester.
The result of this would
not only be millions of dollars lost by the state, but also
the schools would have to cut
certain programs. If programs
are dropped, students would
be less compelled to go to
these schools. I dont think
many people would want to go
to a four-year university that
would essentially be funded
and treated like a community
college. If enrollment isnt up
to par, the universities will be
closed down. Do you see where
Im going with this?
Oh, but thats not all.
Remember the coward 16-year
hold that has been placed on
renaming historic buildings on
university campuses? Im hoping the issue with Hurston Hall
(yes, Hurston) is still fresh in
everyones mind. Senators have
decided that the buildings on
the campus must represent the
diversity of the student body in
order to keep the name. If they
feel the names of the buildings dont accurately depict the
makeup of the student body,
they will take it upon themselves to rename them. This is
interesting considering that I
am writing this piece as Silent
Sam still towers over the quad,
but I digress.
I dont appreciate the never-ending attack on HBCUs.
HBCUs are the first schools to
be impacted by budget cuts.
Its not just in North Carolina
nationwide, HBCUs are
attacked and get the short end
of the stick for funding, hence
why there arent many scholarship opportunities for these
schools. All in all, this whole
faade of North Carolina
trying to help low-income
families is just a strategic
plan to rid the UNC system of
some of the best schools it has
to offer.

TO THE EDITOR:
I agree no student
should be pleading a
rounding case. However,
my son graduated in 2014,
and in his last semester he
earned a 4.0. When he got
his grades he had a B and
an A-. In the case of the B,
his name was interchanged
with the student below him
on the alphabet chart. The
A- was a miscalculation
by a professor of a 96%
class average. Both earned
grades were changed. This
was in the Honors Program
and could have had implications to graduate school.
Every student is not only in
charge of doing their work
but holding the professor
accountable for mistakes.
Were all busy and things
happen in the effort to
produce final results in a
timely fashion. Sometimes
you dont get want you
want, but you need.

It could have been worse

Tar Heel Yard Sale
was flawed, but not
that terrible.

NCs Athletic
Department
held their first
Tar Heel Yard Sale this
Saturday to rid itself
of surplus equipment.
From 7am to noon, over
12,000 items including hundreds of football
jerseys and Jordan basketball shoes were up
for grabs. The rules were
set early: all sales were
final, exchanges were not
allowed and the purchase
of brand shoes were limited. Seems pretty simple,
right?
The event was open to
the public, and eager shoppers began to fill up the
stands outside of the Eddie
Smith Field House as early
as 3:40am. Twenty minutes
may not seem that significant, but Black Friday
shoppers know the severe
impact even a few minutes
can have on a highly anticipated shopping trip
especially when incredible

deals are on the line. Those

that were unable to attend
were able to keep up with
the event via social media.
If you search
#TarHeelYardSale on
Twitter, the first tweet to
pop up will likely be Coach
Bubba Cunninghams
tweet of thanks to the
public for the large turnout and suggestions for
improvement. Keep scrolling and youll find yourself
in a pool of dissatisfaction
from customers including students and alumni.
The alumni included
former athletes who took
to Twitter plead for the
opportunity to own jerseys that they once wore.
For players, jerseys are
more than just a game day
staple they are memories and evidence of the
years of work, sweat, and
tears they gave towards
their craft. Thankfully, the
Carolina Way prevailed as
their posts were retweeted
to help them achieve their
goal.
It is unfortunate that
the actions of few disadvantaged many, but it was

a great event for its first

occurrence; over regulating customers activities could have created
an equally (if not more)
negative experience. In the
future, event coordinators
may implement a registration process, or limit
the number of items each
customer can purchase.
Athletes should be given
some sort of preference.
Theres a first time for
everything. The Athletic
Department could have
kept the surplus equipment
in storage, but they chose to
give open the merchandise
to the general public. There
could have been a parking
fiasco, but public safety
ensured that traffic flowed
smoothly. A child could
have been injured by a
stampede of eager Tar Heel
fans, but workers ensured
that the flow of traffic
remained under control.
Now they know what they
can do better and the ball
is now in their court. Next
year, they will improve and
they will continue to each
year the event is held. Give
them a break.

In need of more options

The University needs
to offer heathier
food options.

f you walk down

Franklin Street on
an empty stomach,
you will be hard-pressed
to not find something to
eat from the irresistible
fry sauce of Sup Dogs to
the sweet, creamy goodness of YOPO. When one
has a meal plan, there is a
decision to be made concerning what to eat: stay in
Rams or Lenoir to hopefully make marginally healthy
food decisions or venture
out into the calorie, carb
and expensive-bill-laden
world of Franklin Street.
When the training
wheels of a meal plan
come off, students are
left to, nutritionally, fend
for themselves. It can
be said the choice is still
theirs eat out every
night or cook healthfully
for themselves but is it
truly?
Chapel Hill is a food desert, which, according to the

CDC, means it is an area

that lacks access to affordable fruits, vegetables,
whole grains and low-fat
dairy. The variety of food
we see on Franklin Street is
usually neither healthy nor
fresh. And, for anyone who
has to eat there regularly
knows, it is not cheap.
The closest of the three
Harris Teeters in our area
is a 2.2-mile drive from
south campus an intimidating distance if one
does not have a car. To the
closest farmers market,
that drive is 3.6 miles.
The nearest source of
food for most on-campus
residents, attainable by a
quick ride on the bus, is
Franklin Street.
The University ought
to attenuate the effects
of this towns food desert
status by creating healthy
food options on campus
and further supporting
healthy food initiatives
already in place.
Cant you imagine a
campus full of (not just
Swiss chard in front of
Davis but) tubers and

nightshades and berries? Or apple trees and

squash and field peas?
Farmers markets that
include a breadth of
products beyond lavender soaps and pressed
juice should be sponsored to come to give
students a chance to
purchase whole grain
bread, eggs, dairy and
meat. Adding purchasing diversity would help
the college student that
either has no transportation to the far-off super
and farmers markets and
those who do not have
the time to leave campus
for their food needs.
And just as if not more
importantly, this would
help the residents of
Chapel Hill that do not
attend this University
ones that have never had
the opportunity of having the training wheels
of a meal plan, ones that
have absolutely not benefited from the college
town economy that has
bled through on Franklin
Street.

Creepy Campus

End of an Empire

Jackson Jig Keeps On

Field Fiasco

Despite summer school,

campus is eerily quiet. The
ability to walk ten
feet in the quad
without running
into another person is kind of uncomfortable. Where are the
slow walkers and unaware
texters? We miss complaining about the everpresent
crowds. Thanfully orientations will be beginning soon,
so well be back at it.

Last week, Jamal Lyon was

shot on Foxs hit show,
Empire. Shortly
afterwards, actor
Jussie Smolletts
crypic tweets basically confirmed
his exit from the show. While
this may seem separate from
UNC, Empire without Jamal is
the equivalent to UNC without Roy Williams; a necessary
staple and personality that
keeps the show going.

On Monday, Justin Jackson

announced that he would
return to UNC
to play another
season. Despite
the hard loss of
Marcus Paige, Joel
James and Brice Johnson,
we still have Jackson, among
other favorites, for one more
season. So hell be back, putting up floaters and floating
around campus for another
year.

As many of you know, the

UNC Athletic Departments
Tar Heel Yard
Sale had a few
hicupps, mainly
caused by a few
fans who took advantage of the sale. So, those
folks are officially on probation for their clear disregard
for the Carolina Way. This
probation is not permanent,
however you are forbidden
from Sup Dogs until fall.

the DTH is a free studentnewspaper and that advertisements are an important source of revenue. I
also understand that just
because you published this

However, this ad borders
on hate speech and should
never be included in our

Africa should be a
course of study
TO THE EDITOR:
Africa has often been
shortchanged as an area
for academic study. This is
particularly true in the field
of history. Up until through
much of the twentieth
century, many prominent
historians continued to
operate under the antiquated notion that Africa
had no history. Asia and the
Middle East have not been
as thoroughly dismissed but
were usually understood
through heavily-skewed
orientalist lenses, defined
by colonialism. This means
that some of the most exciting modern work is done in
these previously discounted
areas, but it also means
that many institutions still
undervalue these areas
in history. The History
major at UNC structurally
contributes to this undervaluing. The department
maintains separate focuses
in Modern Europe, East
European/Russia, and
Medieval Studies. However,
Africa, the Middle East
and Asia are clumped to
together as a single area of
focus. This critique ignores
the unique value of historys
methodologies. Some might
dismiss this problem by
pointing to majors available
with focuses on these areas
in other departments such
as AAAD. Additionally,
there is the fact that the
history major is popular
because of its flexibility.
Validating regions with
their own focus area would
not have to mean a reduction in flexibility if the
department offered more
courses about these regions.
History is an evolving subject, and having the Middle
East lumped together does
history students at UNC a
disservice.
