DTH at a Glance: Government, gender and glee

Happy Thursday! There’s one week until Thanksgiving and less than a week until Thanksgiving break — but before you stuff your faces, check out the news:

QUICK HITS

• Tired of playing soccer, baseball and other common sports? Coach Myles Bacon says it's time to try handball.
• As Finn Hudson once said, “The show must go all over the place...or something.” Catch UNC’s Glee clubs performing at the James and Susan Moeser Auditorium this Sunday at 3 p.m..
• Injuries hit the basketball team hard as graduate transfer Cameron Johnson suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee, forcing him to miss yesterday’s game against Bucknell. 

FROM THE UNIVERSITY

• “If we are afraid to do what must be done to remove an unapologetic symbol for white supremacy from this campus, then we are not a Carolina for all kind.” 30 community members addressed the University’s Board of Trustees about Silent Sam.
• In September, the UNC Board of Governors voted to cease pro-bono work for low-income communities by the School of Law’s Center for Civil Rights. Now, UNC law professors and the president of the Rogers Road Community Center are finding a way forward. 
• Adapting and progressing, the UNC Honor System has now applied gender neutral language to become more inclusive. “That’s one of the things that excites me about it, we’re changing with the student body,” said Jacob Friedman, the undergraduate student attorney general.
• UNC’s Undergraduate Senate welcomed 26 new senators following Tuesday’s election, which marked the first since the Senate redistricted to elect by major instead of housing. 

AROUND TOWN

• Orange County is facing a recycling crisis. It’s not that people aren’t recycling enough, but that they’re recycling too much.
• Members of the Arcadia community in Chapel Hill all have their own homes, but there’s a twist: they share washers and dryers, a children’s playroom, a kitchen and other amenities in a common house.
