Wrongful eviction: Town regulation a burden on innocent students

|

The decision by the town of Chapel Hill to enforce the law banning more than four unrelated people in a home fails to recognize the realities of life here and places a heavy and unnecessary burden upon students. The Land Use Management Ordinance has long been on the books, but Chapel Hill Senior Code Enforcement Officer Chelsea Laws has decided to step up enforcement. A law limiting the number of non-related individuals in a single-family unit to four makes little sense. Chapel Hill is fundamentally a college town.

Delegate dispute: Attempt to dismiss Ingram seems politically motivated, not in line with the spirit of the Student Code

|

Student body president candidate Rick Ingram’s position as a delegate in the UNC-system Association of Student Governments was called into question last week by Student Body Treasurer and Vice President of ASG Dakota Williams. This issue brings an inconsistency to light that should be addressed by Student Congress. The Student Code allows student government leaders to remove students serving as external appointments if they miss more than one meeting.

Don’t bask in Duke’s big loss just yet

|

Next to a Tar Heel victory, the most popular development in the college basketball season for UNC fans is a resounding Duke loss. During and after a drubbing such as the St. John’s victory on Sunday, Tar Heel fans usually take a moment (or several) to relish in the vulnerability of our nearby nemesis.

Ian Lee for student body president

|

This year’s endorsement was incredibly difficult. Ian Lee’s institutional knowledge was impressive. First and foremost, he understands the difficulties that UNC faces in the coming year.

Women are more than the statistic

|

Happy Anniversary! It was one year ago this week (Feb. 5) that New York Times ‘Styles’ reporter Alex Williams waltzed into Chapel Hill and gave his depiction of the life of a UNC woman. His article was troubling, to say the least.

A vote of no con?dence: ASG tells students they don’t deserve a BOG vote

|

The Association for Student Governments decided last weekend to delay a push for a vote on the UNC-system Board of Governors — a decision that was short-sighted and reflects ASG’s ineptness. On Saturday, an ASG council comprising student body presidents of the 17 UNC-system campuses tabled ASG president Atul Bhula’s bill lobbying for a vote at system board meetings.
