Day Labor: first in a series looking at the people and policy
Day laborers struggling to make a living
By rebecca putterman
senior writer
Chapped hands in the frost of the
early morning. Boots stained with old,
flaking paint. Faded sweatshirts layered
atop too-thin a T-shirt.
Barely warm and rarely hopeful, they
await the disappearing promise of an
honest day’s work.
On any given day, dozens of men
await construction and landscaping
work on the corner of Jones Ferry Road
and Davie Road in Carrboro.
But there is barely any work to be had
in the first place anymore. Meanwhile,
town officials continue discussing the
possibility of establishing an official day
laborers center and passing an ordinance
penalizing employers who withhold pay.
For the day laborers, visits to food
banks are becoming more frequent,
“I think this is the beginning of something big,” said Anoop
Desai, American Idol star and past member of the Clef
Hangers. He is busy preparing for the release of a new record.
Students’ home destroyed in Church Street fire
By Sarah Frier
Staff Writer
The four students who lived at
506 Church St. always had friends
over.
So it’s a wonder only one person
was inside when the house caught
on fire at 3 p.m. Monday.
Junior Austin Monroe got out in
time, uninjured. He was about to
take a shower when he heard glass
breaking, then opened the door
to find the front part of his house
engulfed in flames.
He called the fire department as
he escaped out the back. He had
his phone, his ChapStick, his sweat
pants and his T-shirt, and as he
watched the roof collapse, it became
clear that’s all that was salvaged.
The Chapel Hill Fire Department
arrived within three minutes, but
after flames and fire hoses, the
house was a charred skeleton. The
department did not determine a
cause, but said the fire likely start-
ed in the attic.
LeQuentin Wilson, 17, watched
from his window a couple houses
away as black smoke billowed. He
remembers when he was about 7

and some men have been returning
home after giving up on the possibility
of a better-paying job that can support
them and their families.
“With the economy the way it is,
people aren’t getting construction jobs.
There used to be 150 men waiting for
work. Right now it’s less than 40,” day
laborer Emilio Arceo said in Spanish.
“Some of them have gone back home,
some go to the shelter to eat or to the
churches that help us. There’s almost
no work.”
Day in and day out, Arceo awaits the
possibility that someone might hire him
for the day. During five hours, about five
or six employers might stop by to pick
up one or two workers. The town of
Carrboro allows day laborers to gather dth photos/Mary-Alice Warren

her arrest in 2005 for felony embez-

Five years later, a similar protest is
brewing in response to the December
firing of former Rams Head Dining
Hall cashier Angela Vargas, who said
her termination for “unacceptable
personal conduct” was retaliation
for a series of complaints she lobbed
against her managers.
Vargas’ official termination notice
stated that her tardiness was the
cause of her dismissal.

Rams Head” group on Facebook,
met with members of Student
Action with Workers to discuss
their plans to take the effort from
the Internet to the Pit.
This week, Green and members
of Student Action with Workers
will attempt to rally the 1,660
members of the Facebook group to
gather signatures for a petition.
Rakhee Devasthali, a member
of Student Action with Workers,
said petitioning will be followed at
the end of the month with a protest
outside Aramark’s offices in Lenoir
and delivery of the petition.
The petition, posted online at
the end of last week, demands
that Aramark uphold higher stan-
dards for managerial conduct, offer
employees a space to discuss their
grievances without oversight or
intimidation and be more mindful
of human rights standards, such as
a living wage.
“Those are some of the bigger
things that will change a lot in the
dining halls” if the demands are
granted, Green said.
It also calls on Aramark to rehire
Vargas.
“That would be great, because
I miss all my kids, and I miss the
staff and all the people that come
in,” Vargas said.
Bill Cunningham, the resident
district manager for Aramark at
UNC, declined to comment.
The petition — which can be
viewed online at petitiononline.
com/UNCRight/ — was crafted
following a February meeting with
Vargas, who outlined her primary
grievances against Aramark to a
group of about 20 students.
“Our first goal is to get Angela
(Vargas) rehired, but we also want
to make some fundamental chang-
fire
es,” Devasthali said.
At the meeting, Vargas said she

New guidelines created to slash paper use
Could conflict with professors’ wishes
By Beth Thompson
Staff Writer
In an effort to reduce paper
consumption, the environmen-
tal affairs committee of student
government is asking professors
to squeeze more words onto each
page.
The committee submitted a tem-
plate for papers to professors last
week, suggesting new guidelines
for the work students hand in.
Members devised the template’s
baseline requirements, which
include smaller spacing and mar-
gins, with the hope of reducing
paper consumption and improving
sustainability on campus. But the
feasibility of the recommendations,
and whether professors will adopt
them, is still unknown.
“It’s a commendable idea, and
I think that it could be applied in
multiple cases successfully. If this
is a suggestion for how people can
save paper, I think that would be
great,” said Joe Templeton, former
chairman of the Faculty Council
and a chemistry professor.
“If this is to set restrictions on
what would be acceptable to turn
in, I don’t support that. It’s sur-
prisingly difficult to meet rigorous
guidelines, so if it’s a strict, rather
than suggested guideline, you find
challenges.”
The standards were based on
similar efforts by Pennsylvania
State University, which saved an
estimated 72 acres of forest and
more than $120,000 per year
simply by reducing the margin
standards from 1.25 inches to 0.75
inches.
UNC currently uses more than
100 million sheets of paper per
year, according to UNC’s Climate
Action Plan, which outlines the
University’s plan for becoming
more sustainable.
The standards suggest one-inch
margins, 12-point Times New
Roman font, 1.5 inch spacing and
double-sided pages, among other
recommendations.
“Student-printed and turned-
in assignments are one of the key
paper uses at this University, and
so we wanted to do what we could
to minimize the waste associated
with it,” said committee co-chair-
man Conor Farese, one of three
students who created the outline.
Farese said he knows not all
professors will adopt the guide-
lines, but hopes they inspire peo-
ple to reduce their impact on the
environment.
“I anticipate that some faculty
members will prefer their own
standards, particularly if they like
to write in the margins, on the back

tant director of the Chapel Hill &

that works with the day laborers.
Gallegos estimated that about
three-quarters of the day labor-

his wife and four children. Times
haven’t been easy for him either.
“A few years ago, it was different.
We had a couple guys that we actu-
ally picked up … and actually worked

“They want too much money,
they don’t want to pay taxes, they
don’t have Social Security cards,
and it’s too dangerous to mess with
them. They try to get more than a
white boy who wants to work for a
pay check any day,” he said.
‘No hay ni trabajo, ni nada’
Men like Morales demand $10
an hour because when work isn’t
available daily, they can’t get by on
any less.
Morales shares an apartment
in Abbey Court with two other
day laborers. They help each other
make ends meet. In one week last
month, Morales only got one day
of work.
“We feel like a family here.
We lend each other a hand when
there’s a crisis with work,” Efren
Cisneros, Morales’ roommate, said
in Spanish.
Cisneros’ wife died in Mexico
last November, and he had to take
off work for more than three weeks
while his roommates picked up the
loose ends.
“With $300 a week, some of
them are able to pay their rent,
eat, clothe and send money home.
How do you do that?” Gallegos
said. “And they do it.”
Ricardo Lázaro has been in
Carrboro for 14 years and has
observed the changing climate at
the corner.
Selling Mexican food from his
own kitchen, he has seen many of
the laborers come and go.
“The men out there on the cor-
ner right now are the ones who
have the real faith,” Lázaro said in
Spanish, referring to their resil-
ience and persistence.
“A lot of them have left,” said
Gallegos, who said some men have
told him that they’re leaving because
the pay and the standard of living
just aren’t worth it anymore.
“One of the things they would
tell you is that, ‘I could come here
and starve by myself, or I could go
home and starve with my family.’”
A promise unrealized
When Cisneros came to Carrboro
four years ago, he came on the
notion a friend had given him that
he could make $1,000 a week.
“When I came here they told
me I could get a check each week,”
Cisneros said.
“Yeah, you can earn $1,000, if
you’ve been here 25 years and you
have the contacts, an employer,” he
said.
And things have been worse
lately.
The $100 a day he could depend
on for a good day’s work is now
gone. Too many people, both immi-
grants and U.S. citizens, are look-
ing for work on contingency, and
that has driven down wages.
“It’s a whim,” Morales said in
Spanish to describe why friends
and neighbors listen to each other
about where the best work is.
“A lot of times we come for a dif-
ferent life. I came because a friend
told me to come here. He was really
excited about it,” he said.
Ricardo explained that part
of the reason so many men came
to the states to seek migrant and
day-to-day work was because of
the networks they form among
each other.
“It’s a network. I help this per-
son, this person helps someone
else, who helps someone else, who
helps a whole family, and that’s
how the community gets so big,”
Ricardo said.
But those who have a few contacts
stay, and those who have hopes for
the coming months will keep going
out to the corner every morning.
All Necleto Lopez has is his faith
and his health.
Older and with a care-worn
face reflecting years of hard labor,
Lopez waits for a truck, any truck,
in his Carolina blue sweatshirt.
“If God has given you good health,
you just keep fighting ahead.”

Historic mark for UNC nearing More than just a game

Victory tonight
would be 2,000
BY David Reynolds
Sports Editor
Despite its season-long strug-
gles, the North Carolina men’s bas-
ketball team has a chance to make
history tonight.
A win against Miami would give
the Tar Heels their 2,000th win as
a program, a feat accomplished
only by Kentucky in college bas-
ketball history.
This feat was considered to be a
given before the season began, but
UNC’s recent stumbles in the ACC
put it in jeopardy of not occurring
until the team’s 101st season of bas-
ketball.
Saturday’s 77-68 victory against
Wake Forest, however, put the Tar
Heels (15-14, 4-10 ACC) in position
to earn a memorable moment dur-
ing a forgettable season.
“Just being a part of that, all
the history, I can’t imagine how
I’m going to feel,” UNC swingman
Will Graves said of reaching 2,000
wins.
While North Carolina will have
at least three more games this sea-
son to get there, its best chance will
most likely be tonight.
Miami is tied for last place in
the conference along with N.C.
State and the Tar Heels, and the
Hurricanes are coming off a home
loss to the Wolfpack.
UNC, meanwhile, played one
of its best games of the season
Saturday against the Demon
Deacons. Leslie McDonald scored
a career-high 16 points, and North
Carolina held Wake Forest to less
than 30 percent shooting.
Coach Roy Williams said his
team should be able to use some
of the excitement and momentum
from that win down the stretch.
“This should give us some con-
fidence, there’s no question, espe-
cially making shots when we had
to and getting shots when we had
to,” Williams said.
Should the Tar Heels not man-
age to win tonight, their next
opportunities will be daunting —
at No. 4 Duke in Cameron Indoor
Stadium and the first round of the
ACC Tournament.
But if this season is any indica-
tion, UNC should be able to take
care of business in Chapel Hill.
UNC redshirt junior Will Graves has scored 34 points in the Tar Heels’ last two games, including a 21-point
outburst against Florida State. The swingman is tied for sixth in the ACC in 3-pointers made with 55.
The Hurricanes (18-10, 4-10)
have not registered a win on the
road in ACC play, and their two
wins on the road all season have
come against Stetson (7-22) and
Pepperdine (7-23).
Miami is one of the better
perimeter teams in the ACC, and
15-14, 4-10 ACC
that could pose problems against a
UNC defense that ranks second to
last in the conference in defending
the three-point line.
But the Tar Heels should have
a significant rebounding edge to
counterbalance their defensive
deficiency. UNC ranks second in
the conference in rebounding,
while Miami sits at ninth.
Though Williams has cited moti-
vation as a problem for his team on
multiple occasions, that shouldn’t
be a problem for at least six Tar
Heels tonight.
D e o n T h o m p s o n , Ma r c u s
Ginyard, Marc Campbell, Terrence
Petree, James Gallagher and
Thomas Thornton will be suiting
up for UNC at home for the last
time and will be making speeches
after the game as a part of Senior
Night festivities.

Compiled by Jonathan Jones
for six Tar Heel seniors
F
or the majority of the North
Carolina fan base, tonight’s
Smith Center finale marks
the end of a fight that many gave
up weeks ago. UNC has lost so
many battles this season that the
war seems all but over.
But for six embattled seniors,
the Tar Heels’ last home game of
the season is the final call to arms
upon the bright hardwood of the
home floor.
And while this season’s nearly
finished product provides a fair
platform from which to argue
that the team lacks the desire to
win, the class of 2010 has one last
chance to rally the troops.
After an inspired road win
Saturday against Wake Forest,
UNC can earn consecutive wins
for the first time in two months.
Tonight’s opponent, Miami, has
lost all seven of its conference road
games, losing by an average of
more than 11 points per contest.
dth file/phong dinh While no one within the UNC
locker room is likely to acknowl-
edge the frailty of its opponent,
a matchup with a fellow confer-
ence bottom-feeder could not
have come at a better time. If
the Tar Heels have any desire
to avoid missing the NCAA
Tournament for just the third
time in 34 seasons, then they
realize the relevance of this oth-
erwise meaningless game.
18-10, 4-10 ACC After the Hurricanes, only
Duke remains on the schedule.
And a game that many com-
plained lacked the usual hype
the first time around could again
Brandon Staton
At the buzzer
breathe life into the rivalry.
But, as the Tar Heels have
learned the hard way this season,
basketball isn’t played on paper.
The motivation won’t come
from departing heroes. Emotions
won’t swell as any greats are
remembered in the rafters. Fans
and friends won’t wave goodbye
to a plethora of NBA lottery picks,
like the program has become
accustomed to.
And if the attendance of only
15,779 at UNC’s last home game
is any indication, the Tar Heels
won’t get much help there, either.
This one’s all about how bad
they want it.
Seniors Marcus Ginyard and
Deon Thompson aren’t looking
at their final home game as relief
from a tumultuous season but
rather as an end to a chapter that
includes two ACC titles, two Final
Four appearances and, of course,
a national championship.
But when the ball goes up for
the final time, it will all come
down to sport’s most defining
principle — pride.

the closing of El Centro Latino, the
main resource center for Spanish-
speakers in the community, said
Carolina Alzuru, Latino services
coordinator for the Orange County
Rape Crisis Center.
A shortage of money and a grow-
ing Latino population in recent years
have accentuated the center’s clos-
ing, forcing the Orange County Rape
Crisis Center and Family Violence
Prevention Center to find ways to
cater to the needs of the population.
But a recent grant through the
Recovery Act has helped the rape
crisis center better meet the need,
Alzuru said.
The Recovery Act grant provides
the opportunity for funding to non-
profits, government organizations
and small businesses.
The center hired its first Spanish-
speaking therapist last month after
receiving the grant.
In addition to being fluent in
Spanish, newly hired therapist
Karen Current has worked with
Spanish-speakers at El Centro
Latino and El Futuro in Carrboro,
said Shamecca Bryant, interim
executive director of the Orange
County Rape Crisis Center.
“She has a long history of work-
ing with Spanish speakers, but she is
not a native speaker,” Bryant said.
The benefit of having Spanish-
speaking services at the center is
that all of the services are provided
free, Alzuru said.
bragging rights
Previously, the center was obli-
gated to refer people who preferred
services in Spanish to private ther-
apists, meaning that the victims of
sexual violence might have had to
pay for therapy, she said.
“There is a need from the popu-
lation in general for free therapy
from the survivors of sexual vio-
lence,” Alzuru said.
“A lot of the time people don’t
have the economic means or health
insurance that covers mental health
services.”
The center has volunteer posi-
tions for Spanish-speaking advo-
cates to help them keep up with
the demand, Alzuru said.
The center actively recruits
Spanish-speaking students to vol-
unteer as bilingual community
educators and companions.
“They work with our clients
through a crisis line,” she said.
The Family Violence Prevention
Center finds qualified candidates
to be the greatest barrier to hiring
a Spanish-speaking therapist, said
Beverly Kennedy, executive direc-
tor of the center.
The center has Spanish-speaking
volunteers and employees, she
said, including a Spanish-speaking
24-hour emergency hot line and
court services coordinator.
“We do not have support groups
— that’s on our list of things to
develop,” Kennedy said.
“In this community, there’s a
need among many agencies for
Spanish-speaking employees, and
we’re looking for one who fits the
needs of the job.”

Some aspects of financial regulation
bill could be weaker in final version
WASHINGTON, D.C. (MCT) —
President Barack Obama may be
forced to accept a watered-down
version of his proposed consumer
protection agency to get a sweep-
ing overhaul of financial regula-
tions approved by Congress.
Senate Banking Committee
Chairman Christopher J. Dodd,
D-Conn., is circulating a pro-
posal that would scrap plans for
a Consumer Financial Protection
Agency, which Obama has touted
as crucial to protecting consumers
from predatory mortgages, credit
cards and other products. He and
administration officials say the
agency is key to avoiding a repeat
of the financial crisis in 2008.
In an attempt to lure the
Republican votes needed to get
a sweeping overhaul through the
Senate, Dodd wants to replace the
controversial stand-alone agency
with a less powerful Bureau of
Financial Protection within the
Treasury Department. The new
bureau would take the power from
the Federal Reserve to write rules
to protect consumers in the finan-
cial marketplace. And the bureau
would have expanded authority to
write regulations that cover prod-
ucts issued by firms other than
banks, such as mortgage brokers
and payday lenders.
But the bureau would have far
less authority than the agency
proposed by Obama, which was
included in the financial regu-
latory overhaul legislation that
passed the House last December
without a single Republican vote.
Dodd’s move could help get a bill
through the Senate but could cre-
ate problems in the House, Rep.
Barney Frank, D-Mass., warned
Monday.

Carrboro car care business goes green
Changes add e∞ciency, save money
By grace joyal
Staff Writer
Dual flush toilets, rainwater col-
lectors, LED lighting and solar pan-
els are not usually associated with a
building dating back to 1905.
Not to mention a car care center.
After three months of reno-
vations to its Carrboro location,
Chapel Hill Tire Car Care Center
plans to return to a normal busi-
ness schedule by mid-April, with
a much more sustainable building
and lot.
“It kind of flies in the face of what
people think of when they think of
a car care place,” said Joel Sheer,
president of Sheer Associates Inc.
and marketing manager for the
57-year-old business.
The process was a bit more
expensive than using non-sus-
tainable methods, but it certainly
wasn’t a deal breaker, owner Marc
Pons said.
“It requires different thinking
more than it requires a lot more
money,” he said.
It was Pons’ membership on the
Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of
ALWAYS COCA-COLA. ALWAYS CAROLINA!!
Commerce that first got him think-
ing about how he could sustainably
renovate the Carrboro location of
his business.
“It really wasn’t in our financial
interest to tear it down. That would
have slowed us down,” Pons said.
The chamber had been looking
into incorporating green practices
into local businesses, he said, using
a test from the Green Plus Institute
for Sustainable Development.
“I figured as a board member I
ought to take the test and see where
this stood,” he said.
Once Pons started planning,
the idea began to encompass more
than installing solar panels.
“Ideas started flying — we said,
‘Let’s install dual flush toilets, use
low VOC paints, reuse some of the
building materials’ — it got to be
really fun,” Pons said.
There are 82 solar panels on
the roof, said Ed Witkin, director
of solar operations for Solar Tech
South. The system will generate
about 60 kilowatts a day with about
21,000 kilowatts being generated
each year, he said.

Students demonstrate against tuition hikes

Skit organized by variety of groups
BY Brittany Johnson
Staff writer
Students donned graduation
caps and waved signs Monday in
the Pit, using a five minute skit to
illustrate their anger at the admin-
istration in regards to budget cuts
and increasing tuition.
For the national “Take A Stand:
Defend Education” program, stu-
dents staged the skit as part of a
weeklong demonstration against
what they say is the privatization
of higher education.
During the skit, approximate-
ly 15 students played the parts
of bankers, administrators and
students engaged in a system of
tuition increases and loans. About
10 onlookers attended the event.
“No, we aren’t going to help
you pay more for school — take
out a loan. Put more money in my
pocket,” said Rakhee Devasthali
in a characterization of Board
of Trustees members’ attitudes
toward students.
On March 4, the students plan
to hold a “peaceful sit-in” at South
Building at 4 p.m. to protest
against the administration on the
“National Day of Action to Defend
Education.”
“We’ll march to South Building,
the administration building, and
make our voices against the cuts
to education and for equal access
to education for all loud and clear!”
the event’s Facebook group states.
The students will also host a film
screening Wednesday at 7 p.m. in
Gardner room 105 to discuss bud-
get cuts, privatization and access to
higher education.
More than 25 states plan to cel-
ebrate Thursday’s National Day of
Action to Defend Education, pro-
testing budget cuts, tuition hikes,
the re-segregation of public schools
and the right to equal access to edu-
cation for undocumented students.
UNC’s protests are spearheaded
by individuals involved in a variety
of student organizations, including
Feminist Students United, Student
Action with Workers, Students for
a Democratic Society, the Political
Action Committee of the Black
Student Movement and the Sierra
Club, among others.
Andy Koch, a student involved in
UNC’s week of action, said he and
the other groups are hoping to orga-
nize students to become involved in
the tuition and budget process.
“All decisions are made by fac-
ulty,” he said.
Two undergraduate students,
Student Body President Jasmin
Jones and Student Body Vice
President David Bevevino, sit on
the tuition and fee advisory task
force, the group with which tuition
proposals originate.
Bevevino said student govern-
ment is working to encourage legis-
lators to return to students a $200
tax taken from tuition to support
the state’s budget shortfall.
“Students’ tuition should be seen
on the campuses, and UNC-system
President Erskine Bowles is work-
ing toward this,” Bevevino said.
But the student protesters have
outlined more expansive goals,
including increasing corporate
taxes, elimination of “corporate
kickbacks,” and “chop from the top,”
or funds paid to administrators.
“Our ex- Chancellor James
Moeser is getting paid $420,000
for co-teaching one music class on
campus,” Devasthali said.
Tuition increases help pay for
financial aid, faculty retention
and academic services. This year’s
increase will bring in about $4 mil-
lion. UNC’s total revenue is about
$2.3 billion.

Heart test could save athletes’ lives

to play in Chapel Hill
One of only four stops on U.S. tour
BY Sam Jacobson
Staff writer
Chapel Hill is in elite company
this week.
Memorial Hall is one of only four
venues that will host The London
Philharmonic Orchestra on its exclu-
sive U.S. tour, which includes stops
in New York City, Long Island, NY,
and Newport, Va.
The orchestra will perform
tonight and Wednesday night and
has different programs planned for
each night.
The London Philharmonic is a
world-renowned orchestra in its
77th season.
Carolina Per forming Ar ts
Executive Director Emil Kang said
that UNC will be in the presence of
greatness this week.
“They’ve had a string of incred-
ibly world-renowned conductors,”
he said. “They’ve had a lot of time
to develop over the years.”
UNC Symphony Orchestra’s
conductor, Tonu Kalam, said that
the quality of the players sets the
London Philharmonic apart from
the rest.
“London is one of the most
important musical capitals of the
world,” he said. “I think it is a great
opportunity for our students and
the local population to go hear a
world-class orchestra.”
Chapel Hill’s inclusion on this
prestigious tour indicates a surge
in Carolina Performing Arts’ global
reputation.
Carolina Performing Arts mar-
keting director Harry Kaplowitz
said that the program’s burgeoning
reputation has built on successes of
the past to attract prominent art-
ists from around the world.
“Carolina Performing Arts is
a growing presence in the global
field,” Kaplowitz said. “We’ve
played host to a lot of great orches-
tras, and that speaks to our global
reputation. We’re working hard to
build up a positive reputation.”
Tonight’s performance will
include well-known pieces by
Ludwig van Bee thoven and
Johannes Brahms.
Kalam predicts that Wednesday

ples from 20th century pieces

by Maurice Ravel and Dmitri
Shostakovich, will attract a very
different audience.
“The second night will probably
attract a younger, more adventur-
ous audience because that program
is out of the mainstream,” he said.
Conductor Vladimir Jurowski
will lead the orchestra, and
tonight’s show will feature violin-
ist Yossif Ivanov. Wednesday’s show
will feature Alexander Toradze on
the piano.
The London Philharmonic
Orchestra is drawing a significant
amount of student interest.
“This and ‘The Nutcracker’ are
the two most popular performanc-
es of the year,” Kang said. “It seems
bizarre, doesn’t it?”
More than 1,000 student tickets
have been sold. A limited number
of tickets are still available.
LOS ANGELES (MCT) —
Screening young athletes for heart
abnormalities with an electrocar-
diogram test may be a cost-effective
way to identify at-risk youth and save
lives, according to a new study.
But the findings may also add
fuel to what has become an emo-
tional debate.
Researchers from the Stanford
University School of Medicine exam-
ined sudden cardiac deaths among
U.S. high school and college athletes
ages 14 to 22, and conducted a calcu-
lation to see what influence various
types of screenings would have.
They found that adding an ECG
to two common screens already
in place — a physical and taking
a health history of each athlete
focusing on cardiovascular fit-
ness — could be expected to save
about two years of life per 1,000
athletes at a cost of $89 per ath-
lete. (Analyses of this type com-
monly refer to years of life saved
instead of referring to individual
lives.)
The total cost of adding the ECG
screening test would be $42,900
per year of life saved, the authors
found — a sum similar to other
common health care expendi-
tures, such as the cost of dialysis
for patients with kidney disease or
public access to defibrillators.
The finding, released Monday
and published in the Annals of
Internal Medicine, was based on
a similar 2006 analysis that found
that a mandatory, nationwide
pre-participation screening pro-
gram for young athletes in Italy
lowered the incidence of sudden
cardiac death by 89 percent over
25 years.
The authors concluded that add-
ing ECG tests to ones already in place
for young athletes was not prohibi-
tive and should be considered.
“This information should not
be a prescription — we’re not tell-
ing people what to do,” said study
lead author Dr. Matthew Wheeler,
a fellow in cardiovascular medicine
at Stanford University School of
Medicine.
Wheeler also acknowledged that
the number of young athletes who
die from sudden cardiac death
is still under dispute. His study
used a death rate of two athletes
per 100,000 athletes per year, as
reported in a 2008 study, to deter-
mine costs and benefits. But if the
number of deaths is, in fact, lower,
the cost of routine ECG screens
would be higher.
Most high school and college
athletes are screened for cardio-
vascular abnormalities with just a
physical and health history.
The highly publicized and poi-
gnant incidents of young athletes
dying on the field due to unde-
tected heart abnormalities has led
to a call from some health care
providers, athletes and parents for
routine ECG screenings.
“This is a hugely important
study,” said Dr. Jonathan Drezner,
an associate professor of fam-
ily medicine at the University of
Washington in Seattle. “I think the
results need to be considered, to
see what is the appropriate proto-
col in the U.S.”

Mexico’s
war on
drug
cartels
I
n Ciudad Juarez, Mexico,
about 200,000 people have
left the city in the last 18
months alone due to drug-related
violence. Many have crossed the
border into the United States.
Thirty thousand people are esti-
mated to have moved to El Paso.
Ninety percent of cocaine
entering the United States comes
through Mexico.
The Andean region and
Mexican drug cartels supply 350
metric tons of cocaine to more
than 6 million U.S. consumers
who spend $40 billion annually
on the illegal drug.
Drug trafficking is clearly a
major policy issue in the United
States. An aim to combat drug
trafficking has been in existence
since the Reagan administration
in the 1980s.
Great Decisions will host a
lecture on global crime by Bruce
Bagley on Tuesday evening,
focusing on drug trafficking and
some of the key challenges sur-
rounding drug cartels in Mexico
and Colombia.
Bagley is chairman and pro-
fessor of the Department of
International Studies at the
University of Miami. He is an
expert on U.S.-Latin American
relations focusing on drug traffick-
ing and security issues.
Drug cartels became a house-
hold term with the rise of the
infamous Cali and Medellín car-
tels in Colombia. These cocaine
powerhouses controlled every
aspect of the cocaine industry,
from production to its arrival in
consumer countries.
The demise of the Cali and
Medellín cartels in the 1990s
prompted for the rise of smaller
“cartelitos” in Colombia con-
trolled by the Fuerzas Armadas
Revolucionarias de Colombia
(FARC). The loss of central control
in Colombia paved the way for
Mexican cartels’ domination of the
illicit drug market. Today, Mexican
drug cartels control the wholesale
illicit drug market in the United
States. Colombia still produces the
majority of cocaine imported into
the United States but depends on
Mexico for a large portion of its
transportation into the U.S.
The power has shifted between
Mexican cartels recently. A mar-
ket that once was controlled by
the Juarez and Tijuana cartels
is now controlled by the Sinaloa
and Gulf cartels. Turf wars have
become prominent in an aim to
control the drug market.
Mexican President Felipe
Calderón declared a formal war
on drug cartels by the Mexican
government in 2006. Since
then, however, drug-related vio-
lence has only escalated, includ-
ing 69 drug-related killings in
one day earlier this year, con-
tributing to ever-growing fears
both here and in Latin America
of the deadly trade.
Improved technologies and
relaxation of restrictions on
cross-border flows, both hall-
marks of globalization, have cre-
ated opportunities for the drug
trade to increase significantly.
Bagley’s Great Decisions lec-
ture will focus on drug cartels in
Mexico and the Andean region
in order to address the systemic
causes behind their emergence
and the political consequences
of the cartels’ growing power. In
doing so, Bagley will attempt to
provide answers to two urgent
questions: what can be done to
alleviate this growing problem?
And how do the United States
and Latin America respond to
drug cartels in both an effective
and expedient manner?

Give new students first pick
Freshmen and sophomores should be given first
preference for on-campus residences
I
f the lack of on-campus
housing becomes an issue,
the housing department
should implement a lottery for
upperclassmen and graduate
students who want to live on
campus.
By 2012, Odum Village likely
will not meet fire code regula-
tions, which means its more
than 400 students will have to
be put elsewhere. Right now,
it looks like this place will be
Granville Towers.
Living on campus is a popu-
lar option, with more than 51
percent of UNC students living
on campus.
If the number of students
that want to live on campus
exceeds the number of avail-
able spots, then younger
students will be given prior-
ity, said Rick Bradley, assis-
tant director of the Office
Old faithful, departing
New, vastly improved registration system launching
Wednesday for fall 2010 course selection
O
ur condolences to the
Student Central class

Our old friend’s replacement
launches Wednesday.
And it’s about time.
The new registration sys-
tem will be operating under
ConnectCarolina and through
the MyUNC portal.
T he ne w sys tem has a
completely revamped inter-
face. It’ll look nicer and have
features that should relieve
many students’ registration
frustrations.
Debra Beller, information
communications specialist for
ConnectCarolina, said the fea-
ture that the ConnectCarolina
team is most excited about is
U.S. in Vancouver
The U.S. won 37 medals — the
most all time at
the Winter Games.
Typical America.
But how about that
closing ceremony?
Nothing says successful Winter
Games like Michael Buble and
a beaver … Typical Canada.
UNC tennis
UNC is No. 1! No, that’s not
a misprint. We’re
talking about
women’s tennis, not
men’s basketball.
The team assumed
the top slot in the polls for
the first time ever. Maybe
Ol’ Roy could learn a few
things from the tennis team.

By Nate Beeler, The Washington Examiner
of Housing and Residential
Education.
And this is how it should be.
Once freshmen and sopho-
mores are provided on-campus
housing, remaining graduate
students and seniors should
be placed in a lottery system
for the remaining rooms.
If these upperclassmen and
graduate students don’t get
the on-campus housing they
are looking for, they can get
assistance looking for off-
campus housing from UNC’s
housing department.
The department has recent-
ly taken on the responsibility
of helping students who are
thinking about living off cam-
pus decide among the myriad
choices.
T h u s f a r, t h e h o u s i n g
department has done a decent
job of preparing itself for the
the shopping cart students will
get to use.
The shopping cart allows
students to select classes and
register an entire cart full at
once.
This is a substantial improve-
ment over selecting classes one
at a time as students do under
the current system.
Plus, students won’t have to
log on ahead of time and get
a PIN to register for classes.
Students can instead reg-
ister at their assigned time
— provided, of course, that
their accounts don’t have any
stops.
These are all much needed
changes to the registration
system. The current Student

rise of students living on cam-
pus.
“There are a lot of scenarios
that could play out,” Bradley
said. “So we’re trying to stay
ahead of the curve.
But younger students should
certainly be given priority to
on-campus housing.
When a student leaves
home, the idea of living off-
campus in another town can
be daunting.
On-campus housing offers
the convenience and comfort
that allow younger students
to concentrate on academics,
instead of having to worry
about things like bills and
dealing with landlords.
While on-campus housing
issues might not be an imme-
diate problem, being prepared
for on-campus growth certain-
ly can’t hurt.
Central system is just a step
above calling the registrar or
competing for classes on the
gym floor.
Students registering for sum-
mer classes will still need to use
Student Central, but anyone
trying to get a class for the fall
will use the new system.
New systems always come
with a learning curve. And
students should log on to this
new system as soon as pos-
sible to get familiar with it.

and disruptive.”
“Bill l,” on the letter from a student claiming his
free speech rights were violated at the flynt event
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Student’s speech was not
infringed upon at event
TO THE EDITOR:
I was at Larry Flynt’s talk last
week, and after garbling for a
little while, he opened the floor
to questions. One of the first
students to go up brought the
Feminist Students United flyer
up to the microphone. He posed
to the audience, “What do you
think of Larry Flynt being here?”
He then proceeded to liter-
ally read from the flyer about
how Larry Flynt makes hard-
core pornography. The moni-
tors told him to ask a question,
he started reading again, insist-
ing that he was going to ask a
question.
The monitors demanded he
ask a direct question. He start-
ed reading again. It seemed as if
he was filibustering Flynt. The
crowd got restless and some-
body shouted, “We are fine with
it!”
Ever yone cheered and a
police officer escorted the stu-
dent away from the microphone.
Look, nobody infringed upon
his right to free speech, he sim-
ply wasn’t respecting the format
of the discussion.
It isn’t fair to have one person
simply read from the pamphlet
that everyone had received
while others wait to ask ques-
tions, especially after his was
answered by the audience.

Come see the seniors’ last
game in the Dean Dome
TO THE EDITOR:
Last Wednesday night, 4,000
student seats went unused for
the UNC vs. Florida State men’s
basketball game. The ticket
policy I helped developed has
caused a lot of controversy this
year about not being able to go
and sit with your friends.
Yet last Wednesday, you
could have come just before
tipoff with your closest 477
friends and would have still
been able to have great seats
and all sit together.
Do not let your bitterness or
hatred toward me or the tick-
et policy affect honoring our
seniors tonight.
These seniors have been a
part of the past four years of the
UNC basketball program and
deserve a crowd for their last
game in the Dean Dome.
For those of us that are
seniors, this will be the last
time we will ever see Carolina
basketball as a student in the
Dean Dome.
Please come to the Dean Dome
tonight at 8 p.m. and honor our
seniors, who have worked hard
and sweated tirelessly over the
past four years to bring you some
amazing memories and games
that you will remember for the
rest of your life.
Even if you do not have a tick-
et, do not let this stop you, as it
never should. Simply come to the
game 30 minutes before tipoff,
and I will personally make sure
you get into the game. We are
coming off a win, and our boys
played great on Saturday against
Wake Forest.
Don’t think back and regret
missing out on Senior Night!
