Asheville area residents gather to protest power plant LEE ELLIOTT News Staff Writer lelliott2@unca.edu On a cold and rainy night in Asheville, concerned citizens, environmental activists, faith leaders and Duke Energy Progress customers packed Asheville’s courthouse last Tuesday to debate Western North Carolina’s future energy policy in the face of renovations at Duke Energy Progress’ Lake Julian power station.

In addition to the public citizens, environmental activists from Southern Environmental Law Center, The Sierra Club, Mountain True and NC Warn attended the hearing as formal participants in the hearing versus Duke Energy Progress. Over the course of the evening, 64 complainants came before the North Carolina Utilities Commission to take issue with Duke Energy Progress’ plan to decommission Skyland’s Lake

Julian 324-megawatt coal power plant and replace it with three large, natural gas turbines. According to Duke Energy Progress, the proposed natural gas turbines, totaling 466 megawatts of energy potential, are aimed at fulfilling the burgeoning Asheville area’s future power needs. Duke Energy forecasts Asheville will need 15 percent more electricity in the next 10 years, possibly more during peak

times. Even as the majority of the protesters admitted getting rid of the coal plant was a step in the right direction toward carbon neutrality and freedom from fossil fuels, most disagreed with installing the natural gas turbines, which would push back toward polluting energy sources.

what's the deal with duke energy? “Even if what I had to say had already been said, or wasn’t eloquent, it’s still important for the generation who’s inheriting all the problems to be there and be heard,” said Ashleigh Hillen, UNCA senior environmental policy and management student. Hillen spoke at the hearing along with other UNCA students.

the dangers

• Lake Julian power plant is a four-unit, coal-fired power station in Skyland, NC. • With all four units up and running, the plant produces 324 megawatts of power. • The Skyland facility is the largest electricity generation center in Western North Carolina and began commercial operation in 1964. • Three natural gas turbines, the last one to be used exclusively for peak generating times during summer months when air conditioning usage saps the power grid. • With all three units operational, the new plant could generate megawatts of power.

Mercury: In the United States, coal plants are responsible for more than half of the human-caused emissions of mercury, a toxic heavy metal that causes brain damage and heart problems. Just 1/70th of a teaspoon of mercury deposited in a 25-acre lake can make the fish unsafe to eat. A typical uncontrolled coal plants emits approximately 170 pounds of mercury each year.

Nitrogen oxides (NOx): NOx pollution causes ground level ozone, or smog, which can burn lung tissue, exacerbate asthma and make people more susceptible to chronic respiratory diseases. A typical uncontrolled coal plant emits 10,300 tons of NOx per year. . Sulfur dioxide (SO2): Coal plants are the United States’ leading source of SO2 pollution, which takes a major toll on public health, including contribution to the formation of small acidic particulates that penetrate human lungs and are absorbed into the bloodstream. SO2 also causes acid rain, which damages crops, forests, and soils and acidifies lakes and streams.

ampus police encourage students to take a new hourand-a-half class dedicated to teaching them how to be responsible for their own safety in cases of emergency. “I think we need this because of the environment that we live in. We don’t want people to feel frightened by it, but to feel more empowered by it,” said David Weldon, director of Emergency Management and Environmental Health and Safety. “We started the training last semester. We have been delivering it to staff, faculty and student employees like RA’s and those in SAIL. We’re hoping to get this out to the whole campus community.” Kyle Wertheim, a junior mechatronics student and RA in Founders Hall, said he found the class beneficial. “They taught you how to disarm a shooter which I didn’t know how to do before,” Wertheim said. “I think most people would be eager to take it, if they were told that it’s interactive, because that is the most effective way to learn.” The active shooter training course is designed to be interactive. Learning how to recognize a threat, acting accordingly in difficult situations and knowing that awareness and understanding are better reactions than paranoia,are the goals of the course, Weldon said. Weldon said the chancellor saw a need for this type of class and proposed the idea to public safety officials who then developed the program.

“At the moment, it is optional. We don’t want anyone to feel pressured, like they have to take this because it may be uncomfortable to some people,” Weldon said. “But we hope that once they get in the class they will understand the importance of it.” One of Weldon’s biggest concerns is how to bring this class forward to the student body. “We know that students all have very different hours and we want to offer the class at times that they would be able to attend and in a format that they could sign up without a lot of difficulty,” Weldon said. “We’re just not sure how best to put it out to our students yet.” So far Weldon and other public safety officials have looked into running the class through student organizations, or through Dr. Jill Moffitt, associate vice chancellor of student affairs. But still, the main goal is to get students interested. Currently, the only active shooter safety training is a video entitled “Run, Hide, Fight,” shown during freshman student orientations. Weldon said he would like to have the full hour and a half class occur during orientation. “We would like to run the program through all incoming freshman but with the hands-on aspect of the class, it’s very difficult to have that happen in large numbers,” Weldon said. “Hopefully, we can come back and offer a night class or a weekend class. That’s the plan; that’s the hope.” So far, Weldon said he believes the Read more on page 14

SGA struggles to complete community service hours raises ire amongst student body JOSH ALEXANDER News Staff Writer jalexan1@unca.edu

UNC Asheville’s Student Government Association faces issues in community service participation. At the meeting last Wednesday, organization members revealed lack of participation in the required community service hours as the cause of problem. Brandon Watson, a senior mathematics student and senior senator working in student affairs, cited conflict with the Key Center as problematic. “We’ve been having problems with the Key Center being understaffed,” said Watson. UNCA requires each student organization to complete 20 hours of community service per semester in order to maintain funds for their budget. Watson said Bulldog Nation almost lost their funding due to their lack of community participation. Maya Newlin, student body president, announced at the meeting that members of the SGA need to complete their community service before funds are lost. The perceived unwillingness of the SGA to complete community ser-

vice hours has not been well received by students. Laura Fanatico, a sophomore biology major, was displeased upon hearing about the struggles with community service hour completion. “If they can’t be bothered to complete their service hours,” Fantatico said, “how can we trust them to make decisions on behalf of the student body regarding the university.” The SGA has passed two major legislations in the past few months. Newlin was the initiator of SSB 015026, also known as the Student Decree on Diversity and Inclusion. The SGA passed the bill on Nov. 18 with a majority vote. The bill was met with criticism on the anonymous phone app YikYak at the time it was passed. The bill can be viewed in its entirety on the SGA website. The diversity legislation passed last November will move forward for review by the UNCA administration before being applied on campus. Some of the issues held by the student community involved the abolishment of criminal

background checks on university faculty and staff. According to the bill, this is in order to stop discrimination on minorities who were possibly incarcerated due to their minority status. Some students felt this part of the legislation conflicted with the stipulation also presented, requiring the university to provide an environment free of sexual predators. Sydney Blair, a sophomore psychology major from Boone, said that the idea of abolishing criminal background checks is distressing. “As a victim of sexual assault,” Blair said, “it is alarming to me that the school would allow potential predators onto campus to interact with the students in their daily lives.” The second legislation, an environmental bill, passed last Wednesday, will hold UNCA accountable for any future actions relating to sustainability on campus. The legislation asked the university to add environmental sustainability as a key component of its mission statement.

FAR FROM HOME: A Frenchman in Asheville AYMERIC ASSEMAT A&F Staff Writer

Before we even put a foot in a country, we already have an idea of what the people are — how they look, what their personalities are like. I’m French, so you probably think that when I wrote this I had a glass of wine on my desk and a cigarette between my fingers, maybe even a blue-striped T-shirt, a beret and some cheese stuck between my teeth. Stereotypes are always present in a culture. Are they good? Bad? True? I personally find the French stereotype funny in a lot of ways but also a bit mean. I recently learned I’m supposed to be a coward and to smell bad. As if we would ship Chanel perfume all over the world without keeping some for ourselves? Stereotypes have a part of

truth in them but are often exaggerated. They are caricatures. If you know all about foreign stereotypes, those that you know the least are probably your own. Having a lot of international students here at UNC Asheville is also an opportunity for American students to receive feedback on themselves and their country. “There is many stereotypes about Americans,” said Julia Walner, an exchange student from Austria studying law. “I expected really friendly and helpful people and wasn’t disappointed on that.” Walner said most of her opinions on Americans came from movies and TV shows, and most of the other exchange students feel the same way. Our view of Americans is influenced by Hollywood. “The picture I have in my

head while thinking about Americans is a skinny blonde cheerleader with pom-poms and a lot of makeup,” Walner said. Sadly, a characteristic that I heard a lot while I was interviewing people was “fat.” But it’s also exaggerated, a sort of “Super Size Me” legacy. People usually change their minds when they actually go to the U.S. “I found them quite athletic and sporty. Maybe it’s because we are in college,” said Serena Rossi, an exchange student from England studying dance. “I think obesity is still a problem, though.” Most exchange students said they believed Americans were friendly and welcoming before coming to the U.S. “I knew that people were friendly in the U.S., more than in my country,” said Emma

Mäntynen, a senior Finnish exchange student studying administrative sciences. “My friends told me, ‘Don’t be surprised if strangers in the grocery store start talking to you.’” “I like that people are friendly and like to talk,” said Mirka Joro, another Finnish exchange student at UNCA. “It’s easier to make contact here.” It appears your best quality is your openness, according to exchange students on campus. You’re welcoming, friendly and it’s easy to talk and make contact. “Being friendly and talking to people is nice, but it can also bother me sometimes. I’m not always in the mood to talk,” Mäntynen said. Apparently, your best quality can also be your biggest fault. “People ask you how you are, Read more on page 13

Outdoor activity linked to improvements in emotional health JOHN MALLOW Voice Editor jmallow@unca.edu

Photo by John Mallow - Voice Editor UNCA outdoor leader Emily Shaw poses for a photo in the Outdoor Programs ofﬁce.

UNC Asheville students experiencing stress, anxiety or depression have a remedy available in abundance, according to experts; nature. “There’s something about natural stimuli, the natural light, the expansiveness of the sky, seeing trees, that the mind needs and craves,” said Mark Harvey, psychology professor at UNCA. “It helps to reduce anxiety and mental fatigue.” Edward O. Wilson, a biologist, put forth his biophilia hypothesis in 1984 addressing the innate relationship humans share with other living systems, which Harvey said is a relatively new area of science that shows promise. “It has helped stimulate an enormous amount of research, including some really interesting stuff on our relationship with our pets,” Harvey said. “I think it falls under that general area of our relationship with nature.” Alex Hanamean, sophomore biochemistry student and UNCA Outdoor Programs trip leader, said engaging in outdoor activities allows him to leave behind the bustle of everyday life. “It’s great because I sometimes use it to just get away from everything. I’ll definitely use it to just get away, just going hiking a little here and there,” Hanamean said. “It’s nice to kind of get away from civilization, the distractions of

social media, the pressures of school and everything else.” Hanamean, whose mother was born in Germany, said a love for the outdoors runs in the family. “My mom is also very outdoorsy herself. We’ve gone camping a bunch of times,” Hanamean said. “Through her, I went snowboarding and skiing. Generally, just being outside a lot. It’s a very European thing to do.” His father, retired Air Force Maj. James Hanamean, is no stranger to the wilderness either, Hanamean said. “My dad was military, Air Force, and so he worked survival school,” Hanamean said. “He taught people how to survive in different environments, and he worked escape and evasion.” Emily Shaw, a junior history student, is also an Outdoor Programs leader. Like Hanamean, she said she turns to nature as a relief from the demands of being a college student. “I like going outdoors, because it does help me destress,” Shaw said. “College is really difficult, and you’ve got to find things that you enjoy to get through it. Hiking, for me, it means a lot to just remove yourself from a stressful space.” Shaw, a native of Baltimore, enjoyed outdoor activities growing up but said participating in the Wilderness Experience her freshman year at UNCA really ignited her love of the outdoors. “Where I live it’s 45 minutes Read more on page 13

Bulldogs tarnish Lancers

Staff Sports Writer dheinz@unca.edu

UNC Asheville men’s basketball game against the Longwood Lancers was a nail biter during the first half. With 10 lead changes in the final five minutes of the half, it ended with the score 36-33. The Bulldogs had to find a new strategy to increase their lead. In the locker room, Nick McDevitt, men’s basketball coach, told his team to be more aggressive on defense by making sure Longwood’s top scorer,

Lotanna Nwogbo, had as little opportunities at the basket as possible. “What we wanted to do was limit his touches,” McDevitt said. “We were emphasizing to our guards to try to get deflections, try to make it hard for him to even catch it because once he does, he’s hard to handle.” Coach McDevitt’s attitude in the locker room motivated the players to get the win, said Ahmed Thomas, UNCA sophomore guard. “He was a little fired up,” Thomas said. “We could just

tell as soon as we walked in, we just got it together to push the lead.” By the second half, there were no more lead changes. The Bulldogs put pressure on Nwogbo, cutting his field goal attempts in half. UNCA freshman guard, Dwayne Sutton, shot for a career high 20 points and Thomas scored 21 to increase their lead. The offense dominated by sharing the ball. UNCA had 16 assists, compared to Longwood’s five. Dylan Smith, UNCA freshman guard, had

four assists, one of which made the “play of the game.” Smith stole the ball and charged the court only to sneak a pass to Sutton who followed through with a layup. The Bulldogs have been working on transition plays in practice so they would be prepared for plays like that come game time, Sutton said. UNCA beat the Longwood Lancers 88-74. With this win, the Bulldogs continue their win one then lose one streak. “Winning games in the league is difficult and winning

games in the league on the road is difficult,” McDevitt said. “In order to win your league you have to win your home games and a couple on the road.” UNCA’s next game will be another home game against Charleston Southern University. Charleston Southern leads the conference in three-pointers. UNCA will have to transition from defeating one of the best post players in the conference to stopping the best three point shooters in the conference.

The UNC Asheville Bulldogs remain in first place after their 68-59 win Tuesday against Presbyterian College. The Bulldogs improve to 15-4 and 8-2 in the Big South Conference halfway through the schedule. “It’s fun to be playing for first. At the same time, there’s ten games left,” said Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick, UNCA women’s basketball coach. “I just tell our kids run hard from the front.”

The Bulldogs stayed ahead of the Blue Hose once Khaila Webb, sophomore guard, hit a pullup jumper to take the lead 9-8. Webb scored six of her 12 points in the first quarter. Chatori Major, junior guard, led the Bulldogs in scoring with a game-high 17 points and Bronaza “Bree” Fitzgerald, sophomore center, finished with 13 points. Fitzgerald collected eight rebounds, one behind teammate freshman Sonora Dengokl, who also contributed meaningful minutes and four

points. “I feel like I played good, especially at the beginning of the game,” Fitzgerald said. “I just realized nobody can really guard me or box me out, so my main goal is when I see a disadvantage, go for it.” Fitzgerald’s best run came in a second half sequence where she scored, grabbed three rebounds and finished an old fashioned 3-point play from the free throw line. Overall, the Bulldogs finished hitting 52.2 percent of their free throws for Read more on page 9

Bulldogs fall to Chanticleers PHILLIP CARWANE Staff Sports Writer pcarwane@unca.edu

The UNC Asheville Bulldogs used nearly every second of regulation and an overtime period chasing the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers’ lead Wednesday night, but a final missed 3-pointer left them short of the win, 66-68. UNCA red shirt junior forward Will Weeks pushed the game into the extra period when he grabbed one of the Bulldogs’ 19 offensive rebounds and scored as time expired. In both regulation and overtime, the Bulldogs played for the final shot and the potential win by shooting from behind the arc. “Our guys thought we could win the game,” Nick McDevitt, UNCA coach said. “We got some good looks around the basket that didn’t go in.” The Bulldogs struggled to score for much of the second half and overtime, and ended the game making only 34.6 percent from the field and an uncharacteristic 17.9 percent from the 3-point line. “We just didn’t make enough shots to win the game,” McDevitt said. The Bulldogs kept the game close by causing turnovers and

out-rebounding the Chanticleers.Sam Hughes, senior forward, and Dylan Smith, freshman guard, completed the game with double-digit point and rebound totals. Smith led the Bulldog scoring with 14 points and Weeks added 12 points. Coastal Carolina played a strong inside-out game to match UNCA’s changing defensive schemes. Elijah Wilson, Chanticleer guard, scored a game-high 23 points on 9-for-15 shooting and 3-of-5 from the free-throw line. UNCA’s Hughes showed his frustration at only hitting 2-of7 of his attempts from the foul line. The Bulldogs team only hit 5-of-14 free throws for the game, or 35.7 percent. Dylan Smith finished 2-for-2. “You can’t win too many ball games going 5-of-28 from three point range and 5-of-14 from the stripe,” McDevitt said. Following the game, UNCA sits in a three-way tie at the top of the Big South Conference with High Point University and Winthrop University at 7-3 conference records. The Bulldogs face the Longwood University Lancers Saturday at Kimmel Arena in Asheville. The Bulldogs defeated the Lancers for a road win earlier in the season.

Commentary HARRISON SLAUGHTER

Sports Editor jslaught@unca.edu

It’s February and love is in the air for Valentine’s Day, Mardi Gras parties are getting started in New Orleans and, most importantly for sports fans, the Super Bowl is right around the corner. With the matchups set, there is no shortage of storylines as the Carolina Panthers prepare to take on the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl. Before I get started on that though, I would like to address something I wrote in an article last semester. I said the Panthers would not have what it takes to bring home the Lombardi trophy. I also said I would eat my words if they made it to the Super Bowl. Well, here is where I am forced to eat those words. Carolina has looked like the most complete team in the NFL throughout the entire season regardless of the difficulty of their schedule. Winning 15 out of 16 games is no easy task, no matter the competition. Denver had an up and down season, which is odd since they are the number one seed in the American Football Conference. The Broncos switched between Peyton Manning at quarter-

back, to Brock Osweiler, and back to Manning. The skill that matters most for the Broncos is their defense, which is rated the league’s best. The Panthers, on the other hand, have the league’s most potent offense. Cam Newton developed into what seems like the quarterback of the future, and will likely be named the League’s MVP. Everyone has known since he entered the league that he could make plays with his feet, but this year has shown his willingness to stay in the pocket and make difficult passes when it counts most. This will probably be Manning’s last rodeo. Will the iconic quarterback and future Hall of Famer go out on top, or will the Panthers continue their recent dominance of the league and win their first Super Bowl in franchise history? My money is on the Panthers to bring the trophy back to the great state of North Carolina. It is obvious Carolina has the most complete offense in the league, but it seems the Panther’s defense is falling into the shadow of the Broncos’ defense. Carolina caused seven turnovers against Arizona and two against the Seahawks. Nine turnovers in two games seems like a defense on a mission. The Super Bowl will also be the first time all season Denver has faced an offense like Carolina’s. Again, this all goes back to Cam Newton. The Broncos are the No. 1 one team in the league at blitzing the opposing quarterback. We all saw what they did to Tom Brady in the AFC championship game.

Folge 22: Feiertage in Deutschland

Folge 23: Friedrich Nietzsche

Die meisten Feiertage in Deutschland haben ursprünglich einen christlichen, religiösen Hintergrund, werden heute aber von vielen Menschen als kulturelle Feste gefeiert. Andere Feiertage wiederum haben eine rein weltliche Bedeutung, wie etwa der Tag der Arbeit am 1. Mai oder der Tag der deutschen Einheit am 3. Oktober. Weihnachten ist einer Umfrage zufolge der wichtigste Feiertag für die Deutschen, gefolgt von Ostern. Neujahr ist ein gesetzlicher Feiertag in Deutschland. Neujahr oder genauer gesagt der Neujahrstag ist der erste Tag eines Kalenderjahres, also in jedem Jahr der 1. Januar. Es ist üblich, sich zum neuen Jahr Glück und Gesundheit zu wünschen, nachdem man das alte Jahr am Silvestertag mit einem Feuerwerk und Böllern verabschiedet hat. In diesem Sinne: Ein gutes neues Jahr 2016!

Friedrich Nietzsche (*1844 in Röcken; † 1900 in Weimar) war ein deutscher Philologe. Erst nach seinem Tod machten ihn seine Schriften als Philosophen weltberühmt. Er schuf auch Dichtungen und musikalische Kompositionen. 1886, also vor 130 Jahren, veröffentlichte Nietzsche die drei ersten Teile von „Also sprach Zarathustra. Ein Buch für Alle und Keinen.“ Im Gegensatz zu den frühen Werken Nietzsches handelt es sich beim Zarathustra nicht um ein Sachbuch. In hymnischer Prosa berichtet ein personaler Erzähler vom Wirken eines fiktiven Denkers, der den Namen des persischen Religionsstifters Zarathustra trägt. Nietzsche entwickelt in diesem Werk den „Übermenschen“ und beschreibt es als „das tiefste Buch, das die Menschheit besitzt“. Seine Prosa, seine Gedichte und der pathetisch-lyrische Stil von „Also sprach Zarathustra“ verschafften ihm große Anerkennung.

Quality cookin’ and a cup of coffee

Customers line up inside the newly opened Asheville Biscuitry on Merrimon Avenue.

BRYCE ALBERGHINI A&F Staff Writer

With new additions every year to the Merrimon Avenue strip, Asheville Biscuitry moves into the neighborhood of Moe’s and Dunkin Doughnuts. Housed in the building where Dough formerly operated, Asheville Biscuitry provides a spacious dining area, with all the echos of an open kitchen and a high ceiling of exposed metal cross beams. Stainless steel and brick walls provide an industrial feel with modernly styled stainless tables and chairs. I felt as if I had walked into an artist’s workshop that just happened to offer hot coffee. With all menu items under $10, customers can enjoy breakfast all day, or seek out a more nap-inducing dish with Southern flare and wholesome ingredients. When my late afternoon brunch, called “Wicked Chicken,” arrived at my table, I was greeted with a photogenic array of beer battered chicken atop a

scratch-made doughnut covered in collard greens, with an accent of pimiento cheese. The open-face platter of artfully messy chicken and bread prompted me to grab a couple extra napkins. Being a native North Carolinian, I struggled to produce a complaint about fried chicken and collard greens, subtly contrasted by the sweet bread base layer and sharp pimiento cheese garnish. Culinary craftsmanship was packed into every bite, leaving me intrigued by what else the kitchen could produce. I only had room for one serving of Southern goodness, but anticipate returning to try everything else Asheville Biscuitry has to offer. Other menu items include cleverly named entrees such as “Meat Meat” and “Poppycock” or, for the less carnivorous consumer, “Tempehed Meatloaf.” Grilled, fried or vegetarian, Asheville Biscuitry provides the community with quality food and friendly service. Customers can expect a comparable establishment to Dough, but with some

obvious changes in product and management. “The atmosphere seems really friendly, but with a smaller pastry selection than Dough, and no free coffee refills,” said Mark Monroe, a sophomore at UNC Asheville. “The prices do seem to be lower, with more soul food than baked goods, but I like the free doughnut they give you with coffee.” Coffee and pastries are a staple for many students at UNC Asheville. With Dunkin Doughnuts and Geraldine’s Bakery around the corner, Asheville Biscuitry is just another outlet for a convenient cheap breakfast. “For about the same price as any other breakfast joint, the donuts seem fresher and better made,” said Charlie Beech, an economics major at UNC Asheville. “ Asheville Bisquitry is also a closer walk for me than Geraldines’s Bakery.” Open since Jan. 14, Asheville Biscuitry has seen smooth operation and steady business, said Brian Thornton, partner

and pastry chef. “The first week opening was extremely busy,” Thornton said. “We definitely anticipate business to pick up after all the snow we’ve had, which seemed to slow things down a little.” Thornton has been a pastry chef since 1992. Although he has lived in the city for five years, Asheville Biscuitry is his first venture into opening a business. With his new location stocked with meats from local farms and coffee roasted in Asheville, Thornton aims to provide customers with quality comfort food at an affordable price. “All the meat, chicken, and eggs are local, and we marinate the chicken in Green Man Porter which is brewed in Asheville. I was worried about the pricing being expensive, but with local products you don’t have to pay for shipping,” Thornton said. “We also serve Penny Cup Coffee, roasted right here in Asheville, and all our dough is made from scratch. That’s something you just can’t find anywhere.”

Snow Day Shenanigans ROAN FARB

A&F Staff Writer rfarb@unca.edu

“I made one snowball growing up, I remember, and I had to use 10 square feet of our yard just to collect enough ice to make the thing,” said Lee Fussell, sophomore ecology and environmental biology student at UNC Asheville. Fussell is from Hinesville, Georgia, and said his hometown is quite swampy and humid compared to the mountains of Asheville, so he really likes to make the most of his snow days. “When it snows, it feels like a harsher environment to be in; it brings more meaning to your day when you have to trek through the snow to get to Brown Hall,” Fussell said. Fussell tried to organize a campus-wide “snow run” over the long, snowy weekend. As Fussell describes it, a snow run involves stripping down to your undergarments and running a marathon while it’s snowing. As hard as he tried to get other students in on the run, Fussell said, only his friend Tyler joined him. “I kind of felt like a celebrity after I did it,” Fussell said. “There were actually other people out, somehow, with their cameras ready; so, I could be in the Apple databanks in my boxers, I don’t know, that sorta makes me happy.” Fussell said he hoped his snow run idea would build a sense of comradery among the students living on campus, and said he plans to organize another one through Yik Yak and Facebook next year. “There was a day where it sort of snowed and then a day it really snowed,” said Julia Rotenberg, a psychology student, studying abroad at UNCA all the way from Curitiba, Brazil. Rotenberg said she never had the pleasure of playing in the snow before. She said she is extremely grateful she had the chance to experience what an Asheville winter is like while she was here. “It was my first time seeing snow, and I live in Governor’s Hall on campus, which faces Overlook Hall, and I could see the snow start piling up on the ground,” Rotenburg said. “I was extremely excited about it; I jumped out of bed and ran outside and started touching it, and that was the day it only kind of snowed.” When the snow really started to come down, Asheville wound up getting its heaviest snow-

fall in 23 years, which ensured students at UNCA would be able to sled — something Rotenberg had never done before. “We went sledding, and it was just ridiculously fun,” Rotenberg said. “ I couldn’t get over how pretty it was. I could just stare at the snow forever.” Rotenberg said she stayed pretty warm during her first snow adventure, but said after a while her face and hands started to get numb. That’s when she and her friends returned to the safety of Governor’s Hall. “We built a snowman,” Rotenberg said. “It’s actually really hard to do. I thought it would be super easy but it’s not; it’s very difficult. It just got really heavy at one point and on top of that you start not being able to feel your hands, but it was all worth it.” It was a little sad though, Rotenberg said, to spend so much time building a snowman, just to leave him out in a field.

“I told everyone I knew back home about the snow, the only thing I could say is, ‘My winters will be so sad when I come back to Brazil now,’” Rotenburg said. “It will just be cold now; there won’t be snow.” “This is the first snow that has actually fallen in the place I’m living, as opposed to me driving through or to somewhere where it snowed a lot,” said Christian Roughton, an A-B Tech student from Atlanta, Georgia. Roughton said he was glad he and his girlfriend moved in together just a week before the winter storm hit Asheville. He said he would have been pretty unhappy if he had been snowed in with no way to see her. “The funny thing about snow is that it always stresses me out, because it looks so pretty and clean,” Roughton said. “Part of me always just wishes I could hover above it instead of stepping in it and ruining it.”

Far From Home how you feel, but they don’t really care,” Walner said. Many exchange students from different areas reported similar experiences. “Americans are more open, whereas in England we are more reserved. Here I can meet someone for the first time and he will tell me his whole life story,” Rossi said. “But it can be boring, because I might not be interested in their whole life story. Some things should be kept private.” It’s really important to keep in mind different some individuals with other backgrounds will think differently and have different opinions on Ameri-

cans. An exchange student from South America didn’t have the same opinion about how welcoming Americans are. “American students are kind of closed towards international students. They have their own group of friends, but they won’t let someone in easily. It’s hard to engage a proper relationship,” said Julia Rotenberg, a Brazilian exchange student studying psychology. She said her opinion is different due to differences in her culture. “In Brazil, it’s really common to hug people and, when we say hi, we kiss on the cheek,” Rotenberg said. “So here it’s

Emotional Health to the ocean, 45 minutes to the mountains and then we have a bay,” Shaw said. “So, I did a little bit of sailing, I did paddle boarding, but it mostly kicked in when I got here.” Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder, relates the increased time children spend indoors with negative health effects, which Harvey attributes partly to consumption of media. “You have to be suspicious of how a lot of media works where there are such quick edits between scenes,” Harvey said. “We crave that fast paced instant gratification and those things that come from a variety of different screen time, that reinforcement of constant stimu-

not as intense as it is in Brazil.” For her, the best qualities in Americans are their freedom and their independence. “All my American friends have their own houses, they are not living with their parents anymore and they have jobs. I admire that, because it’s something completely different from where I live,” Rotenberg said. “In Brazil, most people live with their parents until they are 30 years old.” Something that also comes up when interviewing exchange students is the lack of knowledge Americans tend to have about everything outside the U.S.

and that’s probably the best compliment you can have. “I can see myself living in the U.S. Brazil is a mess sometimes; it’s dangerous. So I feel safer in the U.S.,” Rotenberg said. Mäntynen added that she has always imagined living in the U.S. because there are greater possibilities for her here. You can be sure all the exchange students are having a great time. If you ask me, I like the U.S. and the Americans, but I couldn’t live here the rest of my life; the wine is way too expensive.

lation.” An abnormal amount of time spent with various forms of media has had an adverse effect on the psychological well-being of the younger generation, Harvey said. “It’s totally possible that ADHD was just underdiagnosed and now we have better tools for seeing and then doing something about it,” Harvey said. “It’s also possible that cultural factors, especially the ubiquitous use of media, is fueling an epidemic of ADHD.” Overexposure to technology and media can shut off humans from one another, decreasing meaningful interactions, Hanamean said. “I think they have done a bunch of psychological studies

about being indoors a ton and being so enraptured with technology. It just kind of deadens you to the world,” Hanamean said. “I think being outside in nature refreshes that spirit of, ‘Hey, let’s be people;’ let’s have these interpersonal connections and it gets you back to your roots.” Harvey said getting out in nature has various positive effects on cognition. “Our minds get fatigued from extended concentration, and spending some time outside helps us reset our minds, so to speak,” Harvey said, “relaxes us, helps us restore our attention so we can concentrate more.” Outdoor programs offer students, even with no prior experience, the opportunity to get in

“A girl ask me if we have New Year’s Eve in Brazil, as if it was an American thing,” Rotenberg said. This would be due to the fact that the U.S. is a huge and powerful country and is not really influenced by other countries. Being the country that influences the others makes it unnecessary to learn about other cultures and countries. “They are stuck in a bubble, not really aware about other cultures and other countries,” Rossi said. The most important thing to remember, though, is many of the people interviewed can picture themselves living in U.S.,

touch with nature through various trips and activities, Shaw said. “We do various different trips. We have leaders that are certified rock climbers and we’ve taken students out climbing,” Shaw said. “We do whitewater kayaking which is really, really fun, and it’s all meant for people who have never done it before.” Shaw said she noticed the positive effect on self-esteem students experience when they step out of their comfort zone to accomplish something they normally would not attempt. “With our trips, I think, it helps a lot of students feel good about themselves, especially if they’ve never done it before, because they can be

like, ‘Whoa, I did that; that is awesome,’” Shaw said. “It’s all about what you want to do, what makes you happy and how you can share that happiness with other people.” Hanamean said existential reflection, like contemplating one’s place in the world, is just not possible without a conducive environment like nature. “It’s interesting to think of these thoughts, because again, I think actually we do tend to think of that more in nature, because when we’re so focused on our day-to-day lives we get so focused on homework, school, work, technology,” Hanamean said. “All the small things grab our attention, and we never have time to pull back and look at the big picture.”

ability to scramble and buy time in the pocket or take off for a long run. The Broncos will give up points in bunches to the

polarizing quarterback and the Panthers. As for Manning, Carolina’s defense is going to throw ev-

erything at him. He is still a legend, so he won’t completely fold under pressure, but I predict the Panthers will continue

their dominance and roll to an easy 34 -17 victory.

class has had a positive response. Taylor Brown, a senior psychology student, says she agrees. “I haven’t taken the class, but I think that that is a really good idea for students. Knowing a situation properly and being aware of what’s happening in the world is the best way to handle any unsafe situation,” Brown said. Others still seem a bit hesitant about the idea. “I guess it’s a good idea. I just always feel safe here, I have never felt unsafe, and this idea is just worrisome,” said freshman Grace Bozorgmehr, who just last semester viewed the “Run, Hide, Fight” video. Weldon said he hopes to make those who are hesitant about the class feel comfortable. “Subjects like this can be frightening and emotional to a lot of people, but education is why you’re at school. We want to make sure that you are aware, educated, and informed in all aspects,” Weldon said. “Even though we don’t want it to happen, or even think that it could happen on our campus, we want to be prepared if it does.”
