A look at sophomores on the UNC men's basketball team:
From March 25 to April 25, the UNC Board of Trustees opened their website to comments about Saunders Hall, which some people believe should be renamed due to William Saunders' ties to the Ku Klux Klan. On May 28, the Board of Trustees will vote on a group of proposals regarding the renaming and contextualization of campus monuments including Saunders Hall.
For at least 12 years, UNC said it had a sexual assault policy it didn’t actually practice.
Given that the UNC-system Board of Governors is the policy-making body for a diverse system of 17 campuses and 220,000 students, many members of the higher education community expect the board’s makeup to reflect that diversity. But students and faculty have often questioned that diversity during the past year. The board, made up of 32 voting members, is elected by the state legislature. Since 2010, the state has been under Republican control — and the current board largely reflects that political background, with 28 registered Republicans and no Democrats serving. More than 90 percent of current board members are white — a statistic that has faced some backlash in a state university system where six campuses are historically minority institutions. Still, when lawmakers named new nominees who could serve on the board starting this summer, more than half a dozen were black.

UNC and UNC Health Care prohibited all University-sponsored travel to Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone and asked that students and staff avoid personal travel to the three nations, which have seen outbreaks of Ebola, Wednesday.
Of the $25,000 Student Congress gave to SafeWalk during its meeting Sept. 21, $5,000 is a stopgap while the group meets with student government representatives to build a sustainable business model.
Freshman Juan Ortiz was told repeatedly to expect to have mostly white classmates at UNC, but it still came as a surprise.
