Hillsborough to host eco-friendly festival PLANNERS HOPE TO BUILD BOND BETWEEN UNIVERSITY AND COMMUNITY STORY BY AMBER KENNEY | GRAPHIC BY BIKO TUSHINDE
Hillsborough Street will be closed all day for the first time in 217 years on Saturday because of the ecofriendly Hillsborough Street Renaissance Festival. The director of operations for the Hillsborough Street Renaissance Festival, Jennifer Halweil, described the event by using the tagline “Music for the Ears, Food for the Soul and a Cause for the Community.” “We want to show people that being ‘green’ can be fun and more importantly we want to show them that there are small, cheap changes they can make in their lives to reduce their environmental impact,”
Halweil said. In order to live up to the eco-friendly description of the event, Halweil elaborated on some of the attractions that would be at the festival, including a variety of ecofriendly vendors and an alternative fuel vehicle showcase that will feature hybrid, electric, and biodiesel vehicles. Halweil also described the organic cook-off that will feature local chefs and the Redress Raleigh Eco-Fashion Show. Halweil, and the planning team, said it was important to relay the eco-friendly message onto the event attendees. For
children of all ages there will be interactive events including solar powered remote control car races as well as drum circles that will use instruments made with recycled materials. “The goal of being ecofriendly is about taking pride in where you live and wanting to make it a better, more beautiful place,” Halweil said. Amy Callahan, the public relations director for the event said they are trying to educate while entertaining. Entertainment will include seven bands including Inflowential, whom was formed in 2003 at N.C. State, according to hsren.org. Halweil
said a second band, Murphy’s Kids, has chosen to not wrap their CD’s in plastic to support the eco-friendly cause. Halweil was also excited to share the schools involvement in this historic event. Over 60 students joined with community leaders to help with the planning process and hundreds more are volunteering. Lauren Zsoldos, a freshman in fashion and textile management, is assisting with the Redress Raleigh EcoFashion Show. “Not only do I love fashion, but I truly believe that the work we are doing can make a
New sound meter aims to echo glory of past Collaboration between College of Engineering undergrads, Student Government to give teams home advantage Ty Johnson News Editor
When construction ended on Reynolds Coliseum in 1949, the men’s basketball team finally had a facility with enough capacity to accommodate the droves of students and alumni who had crowded into Frank Thompson Gymnasium since 1925. But the 9,000 seat arena wasn’t enough for coach Everett Case, who lobbied to expand the north and south ends of Reynolds so the gymnasium could seat 12,000 fans. And while removing the steel
framework in order to elongate the Old Barn was pivotal in giving the Wolfpack the homecourt advantage Case was seeking, a shoddy pole with light bulbs on it also helped. The bulbs and pole made up Case’s “noise meter”, a device that informed the crowd how loud it was getting by lighting up from bottom to top as the crowd cheered louder. The two bulbs at the top of the “meter” were colored red as an incentive for the fans to get even louder, and Case’s homecourt advantage was definite as he compiled a 377-34 record in his 17 year tenure at State. But what the fans didn’t know (or chose not to believe) was the meter was controlled by a technician with a knob who turned the lights on when the crowd got rowdy. More than a half-century
later, undergraduates in the College of Engineering are working to make Case’s noise meter a reality again not only in appearance, but in function as well. “[The noise meter] was really popular until everyone found out it was a dude with a dial turning it up and down,” James Coleman, a senior in electrical engineering, said. “[Student Body President Jay Dawkins] proposed an actual noise meter instead of getting something fake to get the popularity back.” “I was like ‘lets do it!’” Dawkins and Student Government sponsored one of the senior design projects for students to choose from, and the design team of Coleman, Mark Abernathy, a senior in computer science and computer engineering,

Margaret Boro, a senior in computer and electrical engineering and Joshua Wilson, a senior in electrical engineering, jumped at the chance. “Theres nothing that really popped up until i
difference,” she said. Halweil said all the proceeds from the event will be distributed equally among three charities. Two of the charities, MorLove and Engineers Without Borders, are run by students. According to hsren.org, fraternities and sororities are also doing their part by planning a BBQ taste testing competition. “We want to bridge ties between the University and the surrounding community to show what can be accomplished when students, faculty and staff partner with the Hillsborough businesses
and neighborhood associations for a good cause,” Halweil said. The Hillsborough Street Renaissance Festival is also showcasing the facelift Hillsborough Street will undergo. According to Halweil, construction is set to begin in May and improve storefronts from Oberlin Road to Gardner Street. “Rain or shine this event is monumental in the history of Hillsborough Street and will go on no matter what,” Halweil said. “You don’t want to miss history in the making,” Callahan added.

Provision could minimize costs of contraceptives
A provision in the budget bill signed by President Obama could lower the cost of birth control pills used by an estimated 39 percent of college women. In response to a deficit-reduction provision that began in 2007, prices for oral contraceptives at college health clinics have nearly doubled. Florida State faced a price increase from $12 to $30 and several small colleges stopped offering the pills in the clinics. The bill Obama signed is urging drug-makers to offer discounts for the pill. However, it does not guarantee they will make the changes. President of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Cecile Richards, celebrated the

The College of Engineering will host its annual open house Saturday beginning at 9 a.m. Kay Leager, director of enrollment management for engineering said middle school students, high school students and upcoming freshman who have already been admitted plan to attend the event. Leager said the format is the same as previous engineering open houses with most departments offering tours, demonstrations and information sessions. In addition, a team of current students will show off their steel bridge design from a 2008 competition. Chad Goodnight, a senior in civil engineering, said the design is part of an annual competition sponsored by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Local schools, such as Duke, Georgia Tech, Clemson and NorthCarolina A&T must design and fabricate a steel bridge, under strict rules and regulations. The top two schools then advance to a national competition and compete against the best engineering schools in the country, Goodnight said. “At the open house we are going to build last year’s bridge,” Goodnight said. “It must be constructed graphically in less than 15

minutes.” He said it is difficult to create because the maximum length of the individual pieces is 42 inches and all parts must fit within a box, six by six inches. Goodnight said the demonstration will directly show attendees what students learn in college classes. “I was surprised how much I learned,” he said. “By the time junior or senior year comes along, it all comes together.” Jeremy King, also a member of the design team and a senior in civil engineering, said it allows students to take the tools and skill design and actually create a tangible product. King said the open house will open prospects up to extra curricular activities. “It will really give them something to look forward to and even help them decide what they want their [engineering] focus to be,” King said. Leager said she expects a full turnout for the open house. “Everything we’ve done so far, such as the visitation days for high school seniors who have already been admitted to State have been completely filled up,” Leager said. “The engineering program hasn’t seen any drops in numbers.” She said during the tough current economic times families are looking for events that don’t cost money, such as the open house. “This is a good time for admitted students to make their final decisions and for high school students to find potential colleges to attend.”
led to an increase in graffiti painting. He said he will accept the recommendation on a trial basis for one year and make a further decision on whether paint sales become permament. In regard to the remaining recommendations, Oblinger said vice chancellor Charles Lefler will decide the best steps to improve lighting at the tunnel entrances. Lefler will also determine changes to the signage. Oblinger said vice chancellor Stafford will apply the change in PRR language by this fall. Lastly, Oblinger said Stafford and associate vice provost Jose Picart will research appropriate methods of raising awareness about the tunnel, including incorporating this information into orientation.

Rain or shine, support the Renaissance THE ISSUE:
The Hillsborough Street Renaissance will be taking place Saturday.
OUR OPINION:
This is the first time in 217 years that Hillsborough Street has been closed for an entire day, and students should come out to support this historic event.
THE SOLUTION: Students should support local businesses and help build a new tradition and safely enjoy themselves at the festival.
H
ere’s something that doesn’t happen every day: the City of Raleigh is shutting down Hillsborough Street. The reason? The Hillsborough Street Renaissance, which Legacy Event Planners organized, is designed to bring people out to support local business and charities in an environmentally-friendly way. Students should go out to the festival for this historic occasion. Food and entertainment will be available and attendees will support local business. And hey, it’s good for the environment — the festival will use biofuels, and organizers are looking to recycle as much trash as possible and use purchased carbon credits to offset any emis-

sions. But enjoy the festivities safely — students have an opportunity to build a solid tradition around Hillsborough Street and help revitalize the area in a way that years of planning and discussion have not been able to do. Rain or shine, the vendors and venues will be open, and the only thing missing is the people to make this event memorable. Jennifer Halweil, director of operations for the Hillsborough Street Renaissance, said organizers are finalizing plans to get as many tents as possible for the various venues and alternate locations for the fashion show taking place at the festival. The
weather will be no excuse for people not to stay at home. Safety is another major concern. While the festival area itself is subject to strict rules regarding alcohol consumption, which will be heavily enforced, there are no such restrictions at local establishments for serving alcohol. It is up to students to be responsible for their behavior and follow the rules regarding alcohol use. Students should also look to head to some of the events local business have scheduled after the festival instead of doing something that might jeopardize the future of this event. Halweil also said the festival is an opportunity for students
to send a strong message to all the nay-sayers who said the City of Raleigh would never shut Hillsborough Street down and the organizers couldn’t raise enough money and support to actually pull the event off. St ude nt s , i f you w a nt Hillsborough Street to be more than just a boring place to go for food that isn’t from a dining hall, go support the Hillsborough Street Renaissance. Whether you show up for the live entertainment and visiting vendors or drop by the local bars to watch the ACC tournament, get out to Hillsborough Street Saturday.

Students bid Franklin Street farewell
F
or years Franklin Street has been the heart of the UNCChapel Hill. According to WRAL.com, events such as its annual Halloween bash have attracted more than 80, 000 people to the small town of Chapel Hill, which is much larger than the towns popuAntoinette lation size of Russell 54,000. Staff Columnist What is truly amazing about these numbers is that a percentage of the people who have decided to spend their Halloween on Franklin Street are students from our own University. Franklin Street comes to life after basketball events and on weekends with enthusiastic college students from a r ou n d t h e globe. This modest street has provided entertainment to students over from all across the state over the years. However, N.C. State no longer has the need to rely on Franklin Street for its entertainment purposes. With Hillsborough Street becoming the heart of Raleigh, students can finally bid Franklin Street a past due farewell. In search of entertainment, students often find themselves taking a 30 minute drive to Chapel Hill. In February of 2009, gas prices rose 10 percent since January, CNCB.com. The rise of tuition, coupled with cell phone bills, student loans and credit card bills has left students with enough to worry about financially. Keep-
ing gas in their vehicles to make the constant insignificant drive to Chapel Hill should not be included in their to-do list. Taking advantage of the entertainment options that Raleigh has to offer is one way NCSU students can save on money and still have an electrifying time. With more than 30,000 students at NCSU and the city of Raleigh reporting to have a population of 380,173 Hillsborough Street can be turned in something that Franklin Street will never be. According to WRAL.com, “Hillsborough Street is more than 200 years old, built as a thoroughfare from the Capitol. And some dream of seeing it as a signature area of the city.” The efforts to revitalize Hillsborough Street began in 2006 and with the Hillsborough Hikes, Haunted Hillsborough Hike and the Hillsborough Street Renaissance, t he University is demonstrating to the city of Raleigh and surrounding areas that the Hillsborough Street dream which was deferred did not “dry up like a raisin in the sun.” Students no longer have a reason to drive to Chapel Hill on the weekends for a mediocre time on a little street in diminutive lifeless town. Hillsborough Street is not the new Franklin Street and will never aim to be so. Franklin Street has simply been the alternate for entertainment as Raleigh waited for the stimulating Wolfpack to bring Hillsborough Street back to life.
“With Hillsborough Street becoming the heart of Raleigh, students can finally bid Franklin Street a past due farewell.”

look like an idiot, but it’s an even bigger distraction to the class. And the attempt to make an example of this student just backfired. There’s something so slap-inthe-face about texting. These people don’t want to leave class to do it, which means it’s not really important in the first place. But by texting your friends in the middle of your supposedly larger and more worthwhile class, these people are making a judgment call about the class. They’re saying that the class is bad enough to text in. If you were driving a car with someone, and they were texting, you would tell them to stop because your life is on the line. When our lifelong dreams and careers are at stake, how is that so different? If it were worthwhile conversation, it would be done outside of class.

insidious, however. Remember in middle school when that one spoiled kid played Gameboy in class? He was saying that the games were a better use of his time. It’s something sick with the spirit when we unconsciously go for first level pleasures without thought or mindfulness. It’s something worse when we’re doing that in a place (college) where we are supposed to work toward a bigger future by sacrificing small pleasures. Texting, just like the spoiled kid playing Gameboy, also serves as a sort of escapism that is an illusion. It’s completely opposite from what college is supposed to be. Worse, it distracts me just enough to notice them fidget with their cell phone and twitch with paranoia at their instructor. They have paid thousands of dollars for college instructors to act like a middle school teacher, which the professors probably won’t do — the students already look like idiots, and they don’t need professors’ help.

CAMPUS FACES
Making the choice to serve COX VOLUNTEERED INSTEAD OF HITTING THE BEACH OVER SPRING BREAK STORY BY LANEY TIPTON | PHOTOS BY LUIS ZAPATA
W
hen some students hear the words “spring break,” several things instantly come to mind. Drinking, partying, beach, friends, hooking up, getting loud, more drinking … But not to students like Tiffany Cox. Cox, along with other students, chose to spend their week away from school and homework in different parts of the world helping others. They chose to go on an Alternative Spring Break (ASB), organized by CSLEPS. Cox, a freshman in biological science, first heard about ASB at the beginning of the school year through a representative who came to her class. She knew right away it was something she wanted to get involved in. “I have a desire for serving others,” Cox said. This year, there were 18 trips, with about 300 spots available to be filled. Applicants could choose to apply for trips to Alaska, Belize, New Mexico, Italy, and several other locations across the globe. Each location had a different service project, such as education, health, or Habitat for Humanity. Cox chose to venture to Monte Christi, Dominican Republic, because it was geared toward pre-med students such as her. “When you start applying, it’s a bit overwhelming because there are so many choices. I just narrowed it down to the ones that really pertained to my interests,” Cox said. Cox also previously traveled to Honduras twice for medical and dental mission trips in middle school with her church,
so she was drawn to the area. “I was in love with Central America which helped me narrow down my decision.” Applications for ASB were due near the end of first semester, which Cox said was an advantage. “I liked knowing this far in advance because [we] got to have team meetings, so I felt like I generally knew most of my team members before we ever left for the Dominican. It broke the ice so when we got there, we could dive right in.” And dive right in they did. Cox was on a team made up of 15 students, 2 co-leaders, and a nurse practit ioner. T he 18 ven-
tured to the Dominican to work with a program called Orphanage Outreach. They spent their mornings visiting the orphanage and spending time with the children. During the day, they had the opportunity to teach children in the schools of several Dominican villages. The team also focused on health related subjects, like anatomy, general hygiene, AIDS and physical education. They got to go to a Haitian village and perform blood glucose and blood pressure readings with a local Dominican doctor. They visited several rehabilitation centers, as well as a hospital in Monte Christi, to see how health care in the Dominican compared to the health care here in the U.S. T houg h t he tea m stayed busy most of the time, they did take an opportunity to relax. “We had several fun group outings like ice cream, a sunset hike and a trip to the beach,” Cox said. T he pro-
Monte Cristi
gram Cox and her team worked with is well known in the Dominican Republic. The team wore brightly colored shirts so the natives could identify them, and this made them very popular, especially with the younger crowd. “The kids f locked to us, and the people were all extremely friendly and welcoming.” Though this was Cox’s first ASB, she is sure it won’t be her last. “I plan to do one every year until I graduate. It was such an amazing experience.” Coming back to school, Cox had to listen to everyone tell stories about their wild experiences over break, but she says she doesn’t wish at all that she hadn’t done something different. Her favorite part of the experience was that she made friends through her team that she might not have met otherwise. “These friendships that we made will last a lifetime. We have a strong connection now,” Cox said. But were there any downsides? “That it only lasted a week. I wish I didn’t have to come back.” Cox urges students to look into trips like ASB, or other service trips CSLEPS helps to organize. They also do trips over winter break. And for those skeptical of going out of the countr y, there are opportunities to help others all over the country. “I think that everyone should try at least one service trip. No one can go on a trip like this and not have a desire to do it again.”

University study finds genes affected by sleep Scientists at N.C. State have formulated a study analyzing the sleep patterns of fruit flies and how sleep and activity patterns affect genes. Researchers hope that by learning more about the genetics of sleep could lead to advances in understanding how sleep affects the human condition. According to study authors Trudy Mackay, William Neal Reynolds and Distinguished University Professor of Genetics and Entomology Susan Harblson, the study identified almost 1,700 genes associated with the variability of sleep in fruit flies, many of which were not previously known to affect sleep. The study also found that teams of genes appeared to act together to affect sleep. The study was funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health and a Pickwick Fellowship from the National Sleep Foundation. The study is published online in Nature Genetics. SOURCE: N.C.

Two Raleigh bridges among worst in state In a report issued Thursday by AAA Carolinas, two bridges in the Raleigh area ranked among the state’s 20 worst. The Interstate 440 bridge over Hillsborough street—a regular on AAA Carolinas list—was found to be the fourth worst in the state, followed shortly by the bridge over Western Boulevard on Pullen Rd. which came in at 12th. Substandard bridges are officially classified as “structurally deficient” (relatively poor condition) or “functionally obsolete” (inadequate design for its current traffic volume) and make up approximately 30 percent of the state’s bridges. AAA Carolinas take into consideration which bridges handle the most traffic and affect the most motorists when deciding its rankings. For a full list and ranking of all 5,609 substandard bridges in North Carolina, visit the AAA Carolinas Web site. SOURCE: WRAL

senior, accounting Inter-Residence Council President After this spring break, I officially appreciate chocolate more than ever. My ASB trip to Belize allowed me to help build a drying facility for cocoa beans, which is where chocolate comes from. Before chocolate companies will accept the beans, they must be dried to an appropriate moisture level and then packaged. For such a rainy climate, this area had no large facility for drying the beans, and that is where our team stepped in. When we first stepped onto the worksite, it was a blank slate. Five working days later, well over half of a two week project was complete. I grew very fond of power tools, learned quite a bit from some engineering friends, and spent one too many hours mixing concrete, but at the end of the week, I have never felt so accomplished. However, the ASB experience is much more than just manual labor. I felt as though I became a part of the Mayan community throughout this short stay. From visiting families who graciously welcomed us into their homes for meals to waking up at 5 a.m. to see the sunrise over a waterfall, I truly gained an appreciation for the simplicity of the Mayan lifestyle. Not having a computer or cell phone nearby the whole time was actually a relief, and I dreaded going through the 90+ e-mails that piled up while I was gone. I left Belize with a new outlook on life, a new appreciation for hot water, a new group of friends, and of course, a new love for organic chocolate!
While many students do the ‘typical’ college spring break and head to the beach or lay on the couch at home, N.C. State provides an Alternative Service Break program that aims to provide a service learning experience to many students. This Spring Break, with 10 other students, I had the opportunity to go to a small city located on the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico. While there, we did many amazing things such as hiking through the Canyons located between the surrounding mountains as well as studying the history of the Navajo through visits to museums and watching traditional dances. The most heartwarming part of our trip though was our interaction with students at a local school where we quickly become welcomed guests. We worked at Crownpoint Community School with teachers and administrators to promote learning and academic excellence among the students. The second focus of our trip was to participate in cultural exchange so that we could see how we were the same, but also how we are different so that we can help educate those that may not know the of the struggles that many Navajo, and other Native American’s, face. It was a great trip for me because it reminded me of my childhood, going to school and laughing with friends without a care in the world. But it was also good because we were able to provide hope to the Navajo children that they can go to college. We provided hope that they can achieve their goals in life. But most importantly, we also were able to make bonds and friendships with the students and teachers there that will not soon fade away. I am glad I went on an ASB trip and wouldn’t trade what I experienced and learned for anything.
I attended my first Alternative Service Break this past week when I went to Alaska. It is the farthest I have ever traveled. I chose Alaska because my previous spring breaks included visiting other states and getting a “tourist” trip. One of my goals is to visit all 50 states, but this year I wanted to get a different experience with my travels, one that immersed me into the culture of my location. The trip was focused on educational service to the community of Hoonah, Alaska. Hoonah is populated by a small community of people, about 850 residents, that are primarily apart of the Tlingit tribe. We worked in the school in Hoonah which taught grades K-12. I personally spent the majority of my time at the elderly center throughout the week. There I helped prepare the home delivery meals for seniors in the community and spent time with those seniors that were able to make it to the center for lunch. The Tlingit culture places importance on story telling; most of their language and cultural traditions are passed down from one generation to the next through oral story telling and communication. The elders are viewed as figures to respect. When one of them begins a story it is important to be respectful and listen carefully. It is a very big deal if an elder tells you a story because they are sharing not only apart of their culture but apart of themselves. From the experience I gain a lot. The wisdom and respect of the knowledge of the elders is a much more important element of their culture than it is in ours. From the experience I learned that oral stories are extremely important and are relatively insignificant to the luxuries that we have every day. I spent the entire week with out the internet and was able to learn from the community that life does not have to be lived at a fast pace. It also challenged me, because it was the first place that I have been immersed in where I have felt like a complete outsider. There were many times that I felt that I was not in the United States any more. The experience has allowed me to bring back a more open mind about everything than I had before.

Taking a run against sexual assault Women’s Center, NCCASA coordinate sexual assault fundraiser, awareness Cheyenne Autry Deputy Features Editor
For many students, college is a whirlwind of parties, new friends and freedom, with a few classes here and there. The first years away from the shelter of home and parents can be liberating and make the dangers of the real world seem completely foreign. Unfortunately, that is not the case. The actual reality is that violence, assault and rape can happen anywhere, anytime and to anyone. A research study titled The Sexual Victimization of College Women found that nearly 60 percent of completed rapes that occur on a college campus take place in a survivor’s residence, 31 percent in other on-campus living quarters and 10.3 percent in a fraternity house. Though it may be easier to pretend that instances of rape, violence and assault don’t occur on N.C. State’s campus and within the surrounding community, the facts are hard to ignore. According to the University Women’s Center, one in every four women will be a survivor of rape or attempted rape by the time they graduate from college. “Rape and sexual assault are so pervasive on our campus and it is so important to educate the members of our community,� Emily Schultz, junior in Spanish language and literature, said. “With awareness, hopefully the community will feel empowered and impassioned to want to create change.� Schultz is part of a collaboration between the Women’s Center and the NC Coalition Against Sexual Assault to help promote awareness and prevention through a new
fundraising event. The Sexual Assault Free Environment, or SAFE, walk and run is an event focused on educating students and community members about sexual violence and to raise funds for training, advocacy, referrals, prevention education programs and support services to survivors of rape on campus and within the community. “We are hoping to raise $10,000 and that money will go to both NCCASA and the Women’s Center,� Lynne Walter, NCCASA prevention education coordinator, said. Walter and the NCCASA work to end sexual violence through education advocacy and legislation. The NCCASA provides training and technical assistance across the state to law enforcement, college and universities, medical personnel and other allied professionals in addition to working with legislatures to ensure that the laws passed treat sexual violence as a crime and keep North Carolinians safe. “We work closely with the Women’s Center on numerous projects,� Walter said. “They contacted us and said hey, we have this idea to help raise awareness about sexual violence and get the community involved, what do you think, and we thought it was great.� The Women’s Center is very excited about the project’s potential as well. “It is a great way for two organizations with similar aims and goals to work together to raise money for the programs they each support,� Krista Price, assistant rape prevention and education coordinator, said. Though the event is in its first year, both the Women’s Center and the NCCASA have high hopes for student and community involvement. Price said they have a goal of 150 participants and several volunteers are already donating their time to the cause. Many organizations

on campus such as the Delta Zeta Sorority and the Movement Peers, have also made contributions to the event through sponsoring participants, helping with promotion and making monetary donations. “We have received monetary donations from WISE, Lee Hall Council, FYC, Inter-Residence Council, NC CAMPUS Community Coalition and Theta Tau Engineering Fraternity,� Price said. “Several RA’s and student groups will also be sponsoring participants in the race.� Though the Women’s Center and the NCCASA are hoping to raise funds for their prospective projects, both agree that the main purpose of the event is educating the community, raising awareness about the issue and promoting an environment without sexual violence. “Not only will the race raise funds to support the efforts of the NCSU Women’s Center and the NC Coalition Against Sexual Assault, but it also shows survivors that we support them, and perpetrators that we support a sexual assault free environment where violence is no longer tolerated and survivors are supported and believed,� Price said. The Women’s Center and the NCCASA are working on future projects to help combat sexual violence. The Movement Peers, a student organization focused on the prevention of sexual and relationship violence, are working on getting sponsorship from local bars to purchase koozies for the Hillsborough Hike that have bystander intervention messages on them in addition to doing workshops with groups on campus. The NCCASA is working on projects for Sexual Assault Awareness Month in April and its upcoming conference on May 20-22 in New Bern. Interested participants can register for the SAFE Walk/Run on

lines. Sophomore forward Tracy Smith saw only 23 minutes of action Thursday and scored just four points. Lowe said the team, at times, was not as patient as necessary when trying to feed the ball into the post. “The plan was to be patient and get it inside,” Lowe said. “When we were patient enough, we were good but we had a guy or two take quick ones and that’s not what we wanted. From that aspect, we weren’t disciplined enough.”
That lack of discipline led to the Pack attempting 27 three pointers and only hitting on eight of them. With chances for an NCAA Tournament bid now officially gone, the Pack may receive consideration for NIT Tournament. Senior Ben McCauley, who scored 14 points Thursday, said he hoped he got another chance to play in a Wolfpack uniform. “You kind of have to sit back now and watch to see if we’re lucky enough to play on,” he said. “Obviously I would love to keep playing. I love playing for this school. I don’t want it to end. If it is my last game I had a great career. I love this school and I’m not going to forget anything.”
