A pile of loose bricks, someorange traffic cones and dried,cracked mud are the only visiblesigns of Thursday night’s flood at Avery Residence Hall.For the students who were evac-uated, life appears to have returnedto normal, save for an off-limitslaundry room. After a water main broke at about10 p.m. Thursday, Avery was evacu-ated, forcing several residents to lookfor alternate housing. Officials saidstudents were permitted to reenterthe building at about 2 a.m., andthat the basement was the only areaaffected by the flooding. About 100 students gatheredacross Ridge Road while UNCDepartment of Public Safety andOrange Water and Sewer Authority officials responded.OWASA public affairs admin-istrator Greg Feller said officialsrepaired the water main andrestored service Friday at 11:30 a.m.Friday. He added that the water wasdeemed contaminant-free follow-ing tests.Though many students contactedfriends and family for shelter, others waited until Avery reopened.“I had a bunch of homework, so I just grabbed it and sat on the bricksoutside Carmichael until three orfour in the morning,” said CrystalDunn, who witnessed the break.“It was pretty much a fountain,”she said. “The pavement just fell,and the bricks flew into the grass.” At a 12:30 a.m. meeting Friday,Matt Knickman, the community director on-call, advised studentsto search for places to stay. He alsooffered them use of bathrooms inTeague and Parker residence halls.Christopher Payne, associate vicechancellor for student affairs, saidstudents were also offered tempo-rary housing in nearby multipur-pose rooms and lounges, along withopen rooms in Granville Towers.Sophomore Lucy Liu, who spentthe night in Cobb Residence Hall,said the University did not adequate-ly communicate those options.“I feel like they should’ve orga-nized something, you know, justin case, for people who didn’t haveanywhere to go,” she said.Sophomore Allie Henderson, who went to her sister’s house inCarrboro, said she was particularly concerned for freshmen.“I feel bad for people who don’thave friends yet,” she said. “I atleast had my sister.”

North Carolina football’s second-in-command JohnBlake announced his resignationon Sunday, amid whispers of hisinvolvement in the NCAA inves-tigation.Blake’s sudden resignation, oneday after a loss to Louisiana StateUniversity, could mean the NCAA investigation is more damning than football officialshad previously let on.In the press release, which also included statementsfrom Butch Davis and athletic director Dick Baddour,Blake said that he felt his “presence has become adistraction to my family and to this great University,too.”Blake had been linked to agent Gary Wichard by a Yahoo!

ATLANTA — The final plays of Saturday’snight game against Louisiana State weren’texactly stopping N.C. State running backT.A. McLendon at the goal line.North Carolina fans didn’t rush the fieldlike they did after Connor Barth’s field goaldowned No. 3 Miami at Kenan Stadium.But UNC’s close-but-no-cigar comebackin the fourth quarter of its 30-24 loss to LSU will go down as one of the greatest games inprogram history.“I’ve certainly seen a lot of situations whereI’ve been proud — some in loss, some in wins,”athletic director Dick Baddour said. “I’ve never been more proud of a group of young men torespond with all the distractions, all the adver-sity, than what we saw tonight.”Baddour may not be the authority on UNCfootball lore, but he certainly has the resumefor it. He’s been at the top of UNC athletics forthe last 14 years and at the University for 44.“I don’t know if I’ve ever been prouder of a group of kids and the way that they foughtto get themselves back into a ball game,”UNC coach Butch Davis said.Sure it’s coach speak, but for a guy who’s been a head coach since 1995, the pride heexpressed in his players speaks volumes.Zack Pianalto literally had the game in hishands. The senior tight end was the intendedreceiver on the final two plays of the game butcouldn’t haul in the tying touchdown from six yards out. After the game, he said the loss wasthe toughest of his collegiate career.“The way it ended is just heartbreaking,”Pianalto said. “We had a chance to win it, andI just didn’t come up with the play.”Had Pianalto caught either pass, an ensu-

ATLANTA — In North Carolina’s 30-24loss to Louisiana State, an unlikely side effectemerged from the 13 suspensions that left theTar Heels shorthanded all over the field.UNC’s dramatic comeback fell short inlarge part because the woefully undermannedspecial teams units could not contain LSUcornerback Patrick Peterson’s long returns.“All the guys who were starting on defenseoriginally used to be on our special teams,”UNC coach Butch Davis said.It seemed as if every return had a chanceto go the distance — kicker Casey Barth regis-tered three tackles as the last line of defense.One punt return ended in the end zone,as Peterson ran laterally across the field, thensuddenly turned upfield and outraced the restof the Tar Heel special teams unit for a score.UNC punter Grant Schallock routinely out-kicked the coverage, as Peterson had ampletime to pick the right hole to gain massive yardage after dispatching of UNC’s gunners.“The gunners are always the most danger-ous guys out there,” Peterson said. “You haveto get past them first. The cornerback wastaking away the inside, the interior guys gaveme a little bit of time, and I made somethinghappen. I have to tip my hat to them. Withoutthem, none of that would be possible.” At the end of the first half, Peterson hadoutpaced both starting offenses, accountingfor 244 return yards by himself. UNC had155 yards to LSU’s 195 in total offense.“We expected him to be that kind of returnguy, and he is,” LSU coach Les Miles said. “Isuspect that it will be a different punting stylethat we will see from this point forward.”For the game, Peterson ended up witha school-record 257 return yards, and he was nine yards short of the SoutheasternConference record.“I knew I had (a record), but it definitely surprised me,” said Peterson of his perfor-mance. “It was just like a Red Sea out there,it just all opened.”

A study by UNC researchersfound that central-line associated bloodstream infections have beencut by 85 percent at UNC Hospitalsover the past 10 years. About 887 infections and 244deaths were prevented by theimprovement, saving the hospitalsystem more than $20 million,according to the study.The large drop is a result of theimplementation of better prac-tices and further education of therisks associated with catheter use,said William A. Rutala, director of Hospital Epidemiology and one of the study’s four authors. A central line is a tube insertednear the heart that can transportfluids or monitor vital signs.Central-line associated blood-stream infections cause more than30,000 deaths in U.S. hospitalseach year.The study was published inthe August issue of the journalInfection Control and HospitalEpidemiology.

The bright lights and bustling streets of Beijing, China are often photographed.But rarely do images of migrant childrenrunning barefoot down dirt roads on the city outskirts make it into the glossy spreads of travel magazines.It’s these untold stories that senior WyattBruton hopes to tell with his new exhibit inthe gallery of the Student Union.Beginning today, Bruton will show thehidden sides of Beijing that he came to knowduring his term abroad in China.His exhibit of 25 photos tells the story of a migrant village, its school and the people who live there.Put on by the Phillips Ambassadors schol-arship program and the Carolina Union Activities Board, the exhibit leads guests visually on a path from the chaos of the city,down a dirt road and into a village.Bruton first went to China as a Phillips Ambassador in summer 2009.The Phillips Ambassador Scholarshipprogram sends students to Asia to study abroad and return home as cultural ambas-sadors for the continent.On Bruton’s first weekend in Beijing, ateacher brought him to a migrant villageoutside the city.“I ended up falling in love with the kidsthere and went back every Saturday,” he said.It was his love for the people in the villagethat sparked an idea that would earn him aPhillips Alumni Enrichment Fund award.“When I left Beijing last summer I knewI wanted to come back and tell the story,”Bruton said. And he did go back, continuing with thePhillips program this summer.For alumni of the program, the AlumniEnrichment Fund awards students who wish to continue their involvement with Asia. The amount of the award varies on acase-by-case basis.

“The intent of the award is to encour-age Phillips Ambassadors to continue theirengagement with Asia and to broaden aware-ness of Asia back home,” Janet Walters, pub-lic communications coordinator for Phillips Ambassadors, said.Earning the award allowed Bruton to tellthe tale he said captivated his heart.The story was that of one family in themigrant village, whose daughter, Grace,attended the HOPE Primary School there. Wang Hai Shan, Grace’s father, moved tothe village from western China to earn moremoney for his family.Chinese educational policy does notallow students to attend public schools ina province other than that of their birth,

In a year of economic uncertain-ty and a steep state budget cut, theUniversity saw its annual gifts go virtually unscathed.During the 2010 fiscal year, which spans from July 1, 2009 toJune 30, UNC received $268.1 mil-lion in gifts — a 1 percent declinefrom last year’s total.The University raised a totalof $292 million in commitments, which include gifts and pledges.That total marked a slight increasefrom the $290.4 million raised last year.Scott Ragland, director of devel-opment communications, said thegifts will not directly recoup someof the losses brought on by recent budget cuts.“Most gifts are restricted in theiruse at the request of donors, sothey typically aren’t used to offsetstate budget cuts directly,” Raglandsaid.“Still, donors help preserve ouracademic mission by supportingsuch areas as student scholar-ships, faculty research, medicalclinics and building projects. They also support our public serviceefforts.”More than 73,500 donors con-tributed to this year’s gift total.Lindsey Rava, director of studentgiving programs, said studentscontributed more than $71,400.Ragland said these funds pro- vide resources that allow UNC tocontinue to compete with otherinstitutions of higher education.“These are critical dollars tohelp us bring the best faculty here,to bring top students here and tokeep Carolina accessible,” Raglandsaid, adding that developmentofficers, administrators and pro-fessors play a pivotal role in deter-mining what types of funding areneeded and soliciting donors. Among larger gifts this year were a $1.3 million grant fromthe Howard Hughes MedicalInstitute to support undergrad-uate research and $5 millionfrom the William R. Kenan Jr.

Former chairman of DukeUniversity’s College Republicansand his supporters will have at leastone of their grievances against theclub heard.The university’s student judi-ciary decided to hear a case againstthe College Republicans to deter-mine whether or not members were denied membership from theclub, said the student government’sChief Justice Matthew Straus.Justin Robinette, who wasimpeached by the organization’sexecutive board in April, andCliff Satell, a former member of the organization, said they were blacklisted from the club’s listserv in April and were removed onceagain on Aug. 31, along with otherstudents.“It’s really only retaliation,”Robinette said. “Anyone who hasprotested or signed petitions wasremoved.”Straus said the case is compli-cated because the judiciary has tofigure out if removal from the list-serv means denying membership.“There’s no precedent for thissort of thing,” he said.Robinette has claimed since April that he was impeached by theorganization’s executive board for being gay.
