Correction
Due to a reporting error, a
UNC lacks plan for undergrad parents
By Chelsea Bailey
STAFF Writer
As she helped her daughter
Isabelle blow out the candles that
marked her second birthday, senior
Christina Kaemmerlen marveled
at just how dramatically her life
has changed in two years.
This time last year, she and her
husband Joe were struggling to
adjust to their dual roles as parents
and undergraduate students. Now,
as the journalism major prepares to
finish her senior year, Kaemmerlen
said things are looking up, but it
hasn’t always been easy.
“We had a really tough time dur-
ing my pregnancy, just because we
didn’t know anybody with kids,”
she said.
Kaemmerlen, 24, is one of many
college women who are forced to
find a balance between their aca-
demic goals and their choice to
start a family.
But while the University has
explicit paternal leave policies for
professors and graduate students,
there isn’t a similar plan for under-
graduates.
Many of UNC’s peer institutions
don’t have policies either.
Melinda Manning, an assis-
tant dean in the Office of Student
Affairs, said she expects stories
like Kaemmerlen’s to become
more common as the University
continues to accept transfer and
non-traditional students, who tend
to be older and are more likely to
have kids.
“There is no policy for under-
graduates, period. So it’s challeng-
ing,” Manning said. “I think as a
University, we haven’t made it a
priority.”
Manning said she thinks the
first step toward providing more
support for pregnant undergradu-
ates would be creating a central
hub for resources and advice —
giving students somewhere to go.
“There’s not an information
person in Student Affairs that’s
like, ‘Oh sure, you’re a parent? Let
me give you all this information,’”
Kaemmerlen said.
Finding support
The Kaemmerlens found their
support system when they moved
from their tiny apartment near
Timberlyne Shopping Center into
an apartment in Baity Hill, the
only on-campus community for
students with families.
“The one thing that I’ve learned
through all of this is that I want
to help other students,” she said.
“I feel like Joe and I have been
through so much, and we have so

Isabelle, on Monday afternoon outside their student
housing apartment near Mason Farm Road.
Carolina’s board of trustees on
Friday, Pisano will serve as dean
Etta Pisano of MUSC’s College of Medicine
beginning July 1. Just as his wife
did in 1989, Dr. Jan Kylstra will assume the role of
trailing spouse and join the school’s faculty.
That dynamic, though indicative only of the couple’s
mutual support, is nonetheless symbolic of Pisano’s
legacy of breaking down gender barriers by making
one point clear to her female colleagues: It’s possible.
Pisano has juggled a family of five with cutting-
edge research that improved the detection of breast
cancer and funneled millions of dollars of funding
into the medical school.
Whether through her research or leading the
Working on Women in Science initiative, Pisano was
an example to female professors and administrators.
“I feel terribly mortal in comparison to all she has
done,” said professor Kay Lund, who serves as chair-
woman of the initiative’s steering committee. “You
look at Etta Pisano and you think, ‘Did she get more
than 24 hours in a day?’”
‘Stepping up’
Before the avalanche of National Institutes of
Health funding and accolades surrounding her dis-
covery of digital mammography’s advantages over
film in pinpointing breast tumors, Pisano needed
to choose a specialty.
Ironically, Pisano chose radiology to adapt to her
Achilles heel — an inability to function without sleep.
“I couldn’t deliver babies in a way that was safe
for them because I needed to sleep,” she said. “I was
drawn to radiology due to my inability to stay awake
all night.”
Since choosing that path, Pisano has vaulted through
the ranks of whichever institution employed her.
At Harvard, she was asked to direct their imag-
ing center. At UNC, she oversaw the breast imaging
services before being asked in 2003 to direct the
Biomedical Research Imaging Center.
Bill Roper, dean of the medical school, would ask
her three years later to become vice dean of aca-

course offerings, academic services
and faculty retention — could be
affected, Bowles said.
Legislators might stick with a
tuition plan that would take more
than $34 million generated by
tuition increases and, rather than
give it back to schools like in the past,
put it toward the state budget gap.
That is on top of the proposed
$52 million in cuts the system is
already expecting for the 2010-11
fiscal year, which begins July 1.
“If they go above $52 million, it
will have a dramatically detrimen-

matic effect on the economic future
of North Carolina,” Bowles said.
If the system were to retain the
legislative tuition increase, about 50
percent of the money would fund
financial aid, which has been a major
source of need for the schools.
Seventy-one percent of students
applying to UNC are also applying
for need-based aid, Bowles said.

At least 50 non-scholarship ath-

Fields for a chance to channel their
inner Rudy, if only for a few hours
tonight.
These Tar Heels might not be
fighting for an opportunity to see
live football action like in the cli-
mactic scene of the Hollywood
classic, but the fastest ones will get
a shot to beat some of Butch Davis’
fleetest athletes.
The initial challenge will be to
complete one of the afternoon’s
fastest 40-yard dashes. The top
three male and female finishers
advance to the final race at halftime
of North Carolina’s spring football
game on Saturday.
At that time, the winners will
test their skills against a trio of
UNC football players on the foot-
ball field at Kenan Stadium.
Freshman running back Hunter
Furr is the only confirmed sprinter
from the gridiron at this time, but
wide receivers Jheranie Boyd and
Johnny White are also likely to

While Furr will be at practice for

he will try to sneak over to Hooker
afterwards and watch some of his
competition if time allows it.
“If there’s some freakish fast stu-

him to see what he can do,” Furr

The race had signups at the UNC

even if not previously registered,
could come between 6 p.m. and 8

SWOOPING IN TO SAVE
Local nonprofits rehab a variety of animals
by Patricia Laya
staff writer
The first animal Kindra Mammone reha-
bilitated was a baby skunk. She was 5 years
old when her father dropped the animal on
her bed and taught her how to care for it.
Thirty-nine years later, Mammone is oper-
ating her own rescue organization, Creative
Learning About Wildlife Species, or CLAWS.
She founded the nonprofit in Chapel Hill in
2004 to help local wild and exotic animals.
“There are a lot of animals out there that
need rescue,” Mammone said. “But there are
a lot of species that people won’t help.”
Mammone soon realized the need for
her organization, which aims to rescue and
rehabilitate animals while educating people
to live in harmony with wild animals.
Like many animal rehabbers, she works
out of her own home, she said.
“People came to my door with hogs in
their hands,” she said.
Last week, CLAWS employees released a
great horned owl they had been caring for
since November, Mammone said. The owl,
whom she named Archimedes, was found in
a waste treatment plant in Durham and had
abrasions on her eyelid and wing.
Mammone said CLAWS often invites peo-
ple to watch when animals are released.
Funding is one of her organization’s biggest
challenges, and Mammone relies on dona-
tions but sometimes uses her own money.
At CLAWS, veterinarian fees run up to
$10,000 a year, and a month’s worth of food
is about $2,000 for the 25 mammals and 22
birds currently in their care.
Joy Braunstein, president of Carolina
Raptor Center by Charlotte, said the nonprofit
helps about 800 birds of prey a year.
The problem isn’t a lack of rehab centers for
animals, but a lack of donations, she said.
“If we had exponentially larger funding,
then we would have exponentially larger
resources.” Braunstein said.
She said food costs ran up to $4,000 a
month at that center.
“People that do this do it because their heart
is in it,” said Pamela Bayne, president of the
Triangle Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic.
Bayne, who volunteers at the clinic, said
it rehabilitates about 100 birds in the sum-
mer. They eat every 30 minutes for 14 hours,
which raises food costs to several thousand
dollars a month.
Mammone said she often has to borrow
materials such as cages to keep costs low.
She said she wants to move into a bigger
location with looser animal license restric-
tions while staying close to Chapel Hill.
“In Orange County we’re not allowed to
have bobcats, but I get calls about them all

breeding the almost extinct species.
She now owns 12 of the 45 Bettongs in the

to breed them?’” Mammone said. “I said, ‘I

not have a chance to compete
against Davis’ fastest athlete,
however.
Linebacker Zach Brown, who
reportedly ran a blazing 4.26 last
summer during team workouts,
was tentatively scheduled to com-
pete when the race was announced
several weeks ago.
But Kevin Best of UNC athletic
communications said a minor
leg injury he sustained compet-
ing with the track and field team
might keep him out of the race for
precautionary reasons.
Win or lose, Furr is just hoping
the event will build excitement for
UNC’s own spring game, which
is scheduled to be televised on
ESPN.
“It’s just a way to get the student
body involved in glimpse of the
football team and the excitement

the possibilities for peace. The students

much valuable information.”
Manning said she generally
advises students to take a semes-
ter off because otherwise there isn’t
a guarantee that they’ll be able to
finish their classes.
But because UNC doesn’t require
students to say why they are taking
a semester off or withdrawing, the
number of pregnant undergradu-
ates is unclear.
While she was pregnant,
Kaemmerlen worked closely with
her academic advisors in the
School of Journalism and Mass
Communication and the admis-
sions office to plan her absence.
Because she had Isabelle dur-
ing the middle of her junior year,
she decided to take the rest of the
year off and adjust to life with an
infant.
The value of leave
According to the Family and
Medical Leave Act, the University
has to allow faculty 12 weeks of
paternal leave to the primary
caregiver for the birth or adop-
tion of a child.
Paternal leave covers the pri-
mary caregiver, which can be
either the mother or the father.
If both parents are professors
at the University, they have the
option to divide the leave over
the semester.
Teaching faculty can receive up
to a full semester of paid leave, and
non-teaching faculty are eligible
for 15 calendar weeks.
“Working as a new mother is dif-
ficult no matter what,” said Jocelyn
Neal, a mother and professor in the
music department. “But leave is an
invaluable way of keeping parents,
but especially women, in the senior
ranks of service at the University.”
While she admits the ability to
take a semester’s leave of absence
is a luxury, Neal said emotional
and physical bonding time with an
infant is absolutely critical.
Helen Lee, a graduate student
in the English department, said
she was happy to have her depart-
ment’s support in her decision to
start a family but she felt pressured
to continue to do research while
she was on leave.
The graduate student policy is
designed to allow students to main-
tain full-time status. The primary
caregiver is eligible for six weeks of
leave and a semester’s extension of
their academic workload.
“You have all of these assump-
tions about what things are going
to be like when you get pregnant,
but I didn’t anticipate the pressure
I would feel as a graduate student,”
she said.
At 32, Lee said she’s older than
most of her peers. She continued
to do research in addition to taking
care of her son during her absence.
Now, Lee said every day is a nego-
tiation between her family and
academics.
“Kids add something to your
life that I don’t think anything else
can,” she said. “There’s competi-
tion, and I want to excel, but it’s a
matter of finding balance.”

Serving Doughnuts
The vindictive dreams of many UNC basketball fans died Monday
evening when a last-ditch half-court shot ricocheted off the backboard
in the NCAA Championship game. The Duke Blue Devils had defeated
Butler to win their fourth men’s basketball title.
Throughout campus and cyberspace, loyal Tar Heels have mouthed
off against their bitter rivals. Sure, Duke fans probably said the same
things last year. But that’s what makes it fun.
How does it make you feel?
Alex Snedeker “It’s terrible, especially since
Cary we didn’ t even get into the
Environmental tournament. But I’m optimistic
science that in the future we might have a
fighting chance against them.”
Andrae Brown “I didn’t mind it at all, I
Piscataway, N.J. actually wanted to celebrate with
Philosophy them. But then I got on Facebook
and read all of the statuses and I
realized how much hatred there
was for Duke, so I just went to bed.
I thought it was a friendly rivalry,
but I was wrong.”
Mary Parke “Well, I always like cheering for
McEachran the underdog, so I was cheering
Greensboro for Butler anyway besides the obvi-
Communications ous reasons.”

The Daily Tar Heel
Established 1893,
117 years
of editorial freedom

Imagine
what
could
have been
T
hree seconds left, down
by two, he rebounds the
missed free throw. He
eludes a defender and dribbles
to half-court. Two seconds left.
He loops around a screen, racing
toward the basket. One second.
He jumps and releases a prayer
from 40 feet. The buzzer sounds.
The shot banks off the back-
board, rattles inside the rim and
drops through the net with a sat-
isfying “fffp.” He won it!
That will be the scene at some
future NCAA championship.
Eventually, someone will throw
in a half-court heave to win, and
the media and fans will go giddy
with excitement about the great-
est shot in collegiate history. The
player will become an instant leg-
end. The coach will be praised for
his brilliant strategy. And every-
one will have forgotten Butler.
Maybe an astute observer will
remember “that guy for Butler
who barely missed. Oh well.” But
the team won’t get more than a
passing mention from a few fans
or some filler time on ESPN8.
Sports records are winner-take-
all, and winning in college sports
is as much time and chance as it
is swiftness and skill.
College playoff games are
knockout battles between groups
of players who, if they lose,
will likely never play together
again. Imagine an old-fashioned
military battle where the armies
decide they will stop fighting
after 40 minutes, and whichever
side has the fewest casualties will
gain total annexation of the oth-
er’s land. That would be a gorier
version of NCAA sports. Throw
in human officiating and you
have the simultaneous thrill and
injustice of collegiate athletics.
Basketball, football, baseball,
soccer, etc. — all the greatest
sports are games of inches, per-
centages and luck. If Gordon
Hayward’s shot goes three
inches to the left, it banks in.
Indianapolis parties. The shot
is replayed countless times.
Brad Stevens and Hayward are
remembered as Goliath-slaying
legends; they might even make
a movie about it. But it didn’t,
so now we’ll see replays of Kyle
Singler’s step-back jumpers and
praises of Coach K as one of the
greatest coaches ever.
The luck goes beyond the last
play. If a couple of Matt Howard’s
early layups and free throws
fell, the game would have been
completely different. If Michigan
State’s Korie Lucious missed
his last-second three against
Maryland, or if Andy Rautins
would have made a couple more
threes for Syracuse against Butler,
we would have seen a whole host
of other circumstances unfold,
and there is no way to know who
would have been the champion.
But none of those alternatives
happened, and now, justifiably, we
are praising Singler, Jon Scheyer
and Nolan Smith for their gritty
defense and smooth shooting.
While Duke deserves acclaim
because they played well, a Butler
championship on Hayward’s
buzzer beater would have been
the most memorable tournament
performance in history. But the
unpredictable, random yet unwav-
ering nature of sports — especially
in college — is what makes under-
dog victories and last-second shots
so rare, and as an extension makes
the sports so exciting to watch.
So the next time you are
watching a game, pay attention
to the near misses, close calls,
and the fractions of a second that
can turn a probable champion
into an also-ran. Because even
though the Butlers of the world
don’t end up with the glory, it’s
nice to recognize their excellent
performance and think about
what could have been.

T
he Daily Tar Heel is at its
best when it engages the
University community in
informed conversation. If I am
selected editor, I will dedicate
myself to reaching and connect-
ing with our community more
effectively. We can use the year to
grow as a resource, both for our
readers and for the student jour-
nalists we train. We will:
Grow in our ability to spark and
foster community discussion.
n  Use our move off campus as
a motivation to increase visibility
and service as a community news-
paper.
n  Host a forum twice a semes-
ter on a current issue of impor-
tance, determined by reader poll.
n  Add an “ask any question”
page on the Web site. Readers can
post a question and the monitor of
the page will ensure that a DTH
reporter investigate the issue and
report back by posting an answer.
n  Constantly work to ensure the
writing and design of our newspa-
per and Web site presents content
in the most approachable way.
Increase our accountability to
readers.
n Always prioritize accuracy.
We are failing to serve readers
if we are publishing information
they don’t trust.
n  Distribute accuracy statis-
tics weekly to the DTH staff.
n  Increase preventative train-
ing to help staff recognize com-
mon errors and types of informa-
tion to question. Follow up with
those who make errors.
n   Reinstate the public edi-
tor position so we have a person
familiar with how our organization
works explaining our decisions and
critiquing our coverage. The pub-
lic editor, as a former DTH staffer,
will serve as a bridge between the
newspaper and its readership.
n  The public editor will recruit
members of the community to serve
on a feedback board to discuss how
the DTH is serving its readership.
Anybody will be able to attend the
monthly meetings. The regular core

Medlin should focus energy on communicating impacts
of tuition increases and budget cuts to students
S
tudent Body President
Hogan Medlin had an
impressive campaign. Now
it’s time for him to prioritize his
proposals as he transitions into
his new role.
He was inaugurated Tuesday
evening. He now has one
year to make his mark on the
University.
There are two issues that
deserve his immediate and
utmost attention: tuition
increases and budget cuts.
Neither is in his control, but
both affect the collective student
body more than just about any-
thing else on campus.
It’s Medlin’s responsibility as
the students’ representative to
ensure that students know how
they’ll be affected by both.

of board members will be asked to
bring readers who want to express
frustration or praise.
Rededicate ourselves to pro-
active coverage no other news
source can provide.
n  Expect more from our expe-
rienced staffers, requiring paid
senior staffers to meet as a group
weekly to brainstorm and set goals
and allowing staff writers with
more than one semester’s experi-
ence to apply to write on a beat.
n  Properly promote evergreen
content on the Web site, enhanc-
ing online resources like data
pages, topic pages and the crime
map and making more public
records data available and search-
able on dailytarheel.com.
n   Promote multimedia con-
tent for more days, as it has a
longer shelf life than daily news
content.
n Take on projects that high-
light our unique opportunities and
access to give the reader something
they can’t find anywhere else.
Ensure that the structure of
our organization makes best use
of staff ’s potential while training
forward-thinking journalists.
n Rearrange some online tasks
and replace the Managing Editor
for Online position with a Visual
Managing Editor so the structure
of the DTH better serves its staff
and ultimately its readers. Adding
a VME will result in more bal-
anced management and better
workflow. The online desk editor
will adopt a more visionary role,
enhancing the dailytarheel.com
experience rather than directing
the posting of print stories.
Town hall meetings are one
of the easiest ways to make
that happen. Medlin needs to
use the resources he has as the
head of the executive branch
to present tuition and budget
information to students.
He needs to make sure that
the University’s feet are held
to the fire. If budget cuts and
tuition increases are going to
hurt students, Medlin needs to
show them how and why that
will happen.
But Medlin should go further
than information sessions.
He also needs to take an
active role in policy formation.
Medlin is the only student
with a vote on the Board of
Trustees, but his involvement

n  The new VME will determine
how to produce and present visual
content in the most effective way,
in the paper and online, and train
us to think of the visual desks as
content desks, not just as supple-
ments to the writing desks.
n  Posting stories to dailytar-
heel.com takes time the online
staff could be using to improve
other Web functions. That job will
transfer to the copy desk. Online
staff members will instead choose
specializations to develop market-
able skills in specific areas.
n The DTH is a teaching paper.
Students should always feel a job
with us is a fun, challenging learn-
ing experience, steering them in
the direction they want to grow.
We will do a skills survey of cur-
rent and new staff to ensure we are
pushing the limits of those skills.
Instill in all staff members
that they are working toward a
common goal; inspire them to be
curious, risky, excited. We should
all strive to be better, all the time,
and love the challenge.
n   Ensure that staffers are
motivated, connected and pre-
pared to succeed at the DTH.
n  Host weekly all-staff meetings
to set short-term goals, assign tasks
and cross off accomplishments.
n   Mobilize a team of staff
members to recruit students with
diverse backgrounds and skills,
showing them why we clearly are
the place to jump-start a career.
n   Redesign new staff orien-
tation so it engages staffers and
more effectively teaches them how
they fit into the organization.
Provide transparent, collabora-
tive leadership when coming up
with a solution to problems.
n  Institute a regular feedback
cycle with editors so I can help set
and reach goals and discuss obsta-
cles. I will avoid micromanaging
but will intervene when necessary.
n Communicate clearly to
members of the staff how they are
affected by any changes we make
and why it was important for us to
make those changes.
can’t stop there. He needs to
mobilize students.
Fo r m e r S t u d e n t B o d y
President James Allred was
known for effectively mobiliz-
ing students on tuition issues.
He led protests into the Board
of Trustees meetings. He insert-
ed himself into discussions that
happened long before policies
came to a vote.
Medlin should take a page
from Allred’s book. Fighting
for students needs to be prior-
ity one.
Medlin has promised much.
Keeping students in the know
and being an actual advocate
for their interests in the face of
budget cuts and tuition increas-
es are two things on which he
can and must deliver.
