Red spray paint mars UNC

Spray-painted phrases such as “Go Pack,” “we eat rams 4 lunch” and profanities marred the brick paths near Rams Head Dining Hall on Thursday. The graffiti, presumably painted by N.C.

State fans snuck onto UNC campus last night/early this morning and painted the cubes next to the Pit. Unfortunately for them, someone tipped off Carolina Fever about their visit. Carolina Fever told them that they couldn’t paint the cubes because they weren’t UNC students. Fever painted the cubes Carolina blue.

One hurdle remains — UNC-system President Erskine Bowles and the Board of Governors, which will take up the issue in February. Though that board has pledged to especially scrutinize all increase requests this year, Board of Trustees Chairman Roger Perry said UNC-Chapel Hill has a compelling case.
