Editorial: Masters of their universe
"Graduate and professional students, we appreciate all you do for students, the University, the state, the nation and the world. Heaven helps those who help themselves. Get out and vote."
EDITORIALS
Editorial: Singing the praises of the Unsung Founders
"The design of the monument invites disrespect through its accessibility and inherent purpose of serving the public. When people use it as a place to sit and eat, it is almost as though the founders are once more doing a service to the community’s more privileged members."
Editorial: We’re composting well. Let’s compost better
"As it is said, good is the enemy of great. We are doing well, but we should be striving to do better."
Editorial: SBP election cycle was petty and dishonest
"The student body needs someone strong-willed and dignified to guide us through what is sure to be another tumultuous year. As for whether or not Martin will be that leader? Only time will tell. "
Editorial: UNC is not as progressive as it prides itself on being
1979 was not a long time ago. It was only 40 years ago, to be exact. We cannot write these images off as a relic of the past, or pretend as if they don’t exist.
Editorial: Say goodbye to Glenn, please
"Student leaders, who worked closely with Glenn and knew him well, made the decision to order his resignation unanimously, decisively and unquestionably – and we commend them for that. Senior stakeholders and the UNC administration, however, did not."
Editorial: Students should welcome visiting fellows
Civil dialogue is the bridge that connects the fragmented political division of modern day America, and now McCrory, McIntyre and we as Tar Heels face a choice: Are we willing to cross it?
Editorial: It's not ghosting if the relationship was never alive
"So, be adventurous and explore, but keep in mind what you’re actually looking for, and let the people you meet know. If you just wait for them to say what only you are thinking, eventually they’re just not going to say anything at all."
Editorial: @sams_reckoning should not have to exist
Sam's Reckoning has found that a total of 1,491 slaves were owned by the families of the 31 deceased Confederate UNC soldiers that the account has researched so far.
Editorial: A solution for Aycock Residence Hall
"The Undergraduate Senate passed a resolution Tuesday that recommended renaming Aycock Hall. The resolution passed without debate. Unfortunately, the resolution is merely symbolic."
Column: After many ups and downs, Nassir Little has arrived
In order for UNC to be fully realized as a title contender, the team must place Nassir Little in positions to succeed: breaking up Roy William's consistency.
Editorial: Folt ends the UNC shutdown
The Board of Governors reaction to Chancellor Folt's announcement is a dim reflection of modern partisan politics.
Editorial: Folt's chance for redemption
"Carol Folt has played one of the biggest hands in the defamation of UNC, but she now has a chance for redemption in the following months."
Editorial: Bless your heart, administration
"Silent Sam's fall and rise can become an annual kabuki theater show, maybe even becoming as central to UNC ritual as drinking from the Old Well the first day of the semester."
Editorial: TA strike took advantage of students
"For this group of TAs to decide, after their last paycheck had been delivered, to hold the grades of their students hostage to make a statement is a cowardly move."
Editorial: What UNC will look like in 50 years
Gary the Pit Preacher will still be around.
Editorial: Silent Sam decision is disappointing but unsurprising
This decision was not made with the student’s best interests in mind. History will not look favorably on “the people’s University,” if the administration continues to advocate for wealthy donors instead of what is right for the University’s progress.
Editorial: Babes who suck
Babes Who Blade, a popular Facebook forum, is facing a slew of problems such as disabled comments, excessive content warnings and white feminism.
Editorial: Timing isn't everything for UNC
A better, clear principle is simply telling the truth and giving the news when it comes available. Let the people decide how to react to it.
