Number of students applying to med school at all-time high N.C. State’s Health Professions Advising Center, which almost lost funding before this semester, is helping provide more students a pathway to medical school than ever before. Dr. Anita Flick, the director of health professions advising at N.C. State, said that during the past two years, Health PAC has seen a 70 percent increase in the number of students applying to medical school through its program and review committee. Health PAC, which is heavily IT driven with an extensive website, a portfolio and composite system, listserv, service and events tracking, event registration and pre-health club functions, nearly lost funding

due to budget cuts before fall 2013. “Through efforts of the Office of Student Affairs, N.C. State was able to determine resources needed to maintain the program and provide the support for students,” Flick said. Flick said medical school acceptance rates are rising as well. In recent years, about 75 to 80 percent of students utilizing Health PAC’s services who are recommended without reservation by the review committee gain acceptance into one of their chosen schools — a high statistic compared to a national average of 40 to 45 percent, Flick said. “We now have 5,000 pre-health students,” Flick said. “We continue to see increasing numbers of students both entering the discipline and returning to campus to pursue healthcare careers.” N.C. State’s shift reflects a nation-

wide trend: Medical school application and acceptance rates in the United States are at an all-time high. According to a report by the Chronicle for Higher Education, the number of medical school applicants increased by 6.1 percent to about 48,000 in 2013. The number of students enrolled increased as well, exceeding 20,000 for the first time. Increases can be attributed to a 2006 nationwide call for medical schools to increase enrollments by 30 percent with a hope to prevent a predicted shortage of 90,000 physicians, reported the Chronicle. A current medical school applicant in the interview process, Elizabeth Kripner, a senior in marine science, said that increases in

North Carolina Department of Public Instruction officials are expecting a significantly lower educational ranking based on the state’s End of Grade test results Thursday. Lynda Fuller, an information and communication specialist for the NCDPI, said that the state of North Carolina made changes to schools’ curricula last year to make End of Course and EOG assessments more challenging. Fuller said NCDPI officials expect new standardized test scores to be about 20 percent lower than in previous years. The results from last year’s EOCs and EOGs will be released Thursday. Fuller said that while EOC and EOG assessments are usually not used for comparison because these tests are administered by state governments, but she hopes North Carolina’s scores will be more comparable to other states. “Because they are more aggressive, those numbers are expected to parallel more than in the past because there has been some debate

that North Carolina’s tests really aren’t that aggressive or challenging,” Fuller said. Lower scores may not sound like a good thing, but the hope is to ensure that these assessments are not showing false proficiency standards, according to Fuller. These results will come less than a month after the National Center for Educational Statistics released a report that ranked North Carolina sixth in mathematics and 30th in science in the United States. “This is a big week for North Carolina public schools,” Fuller said. The NCES study used 2011 scores in math and science from two sources: the National Assessment of Educational Process, which was administered to eighth graders in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Department of Defense schools; and from the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study, which evaluated eighth graders in 38 different countries and 9 “subnational entities,” such as Quebec or Dubai. Usually, it’s hard to compare how state public school systems are doing

80 percent of students admit to texting in class Katherine Kehoe Staff Writer

A majority of students are texting during classes at N.C. State and other universities across the United States. The Atlantic published a study that found that 80 percent of college students text in class, reinforcing the idea that using mobile phones in the classroom has become the new norm. The results came from 777 college and graduate students in Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, North Carolina and Mississippi.

Angelica Stanisic, a freshman in textiles, said she uses her cell phone two or three times every class period. “I am mostly just checking the time or texting,” Stanisic said. “It doesn’t make me forget about the lecture as long as I don’t get caught up in browsing Facebook for long periods of time.” The survey also found that almost a third of students use a digital device more than 11 times during classes for non-classroom related activities.

NCSU faculty member performs in piano recital Jacqueline Lee Staff Writer

A member of the N.C. State faculty joined other Raleigh-based performers for a recital in Thompson Hall on Sunday. The Olga Kleiankina Piano Faculty Recital featured piano and double bass arrangements from the group. “I hope that students enjoyed my events, and they will be attracted to future performances,” said Kleiankina, assistant professor of piano at N.C. State. Kleiankina accompanied Leonid Finkelshteyn who played the double bass and performed pieces by artists such as Adolf Mišek, Sergei Rachmaninoff and Giovanni Bottesni. “I enjoyed the performance as it was technically proficient and wonderful musically,” said Greg Song, a sophomore in business. Kleiankina said she has one recital every semester and will perform soon at an event

featuring Beethoven’s music on Nov. 17, at Meymandi Concert Hall. Finkelshteyn is the principal bassist for the North Carolina Symphony and the Eastern Festival orchestra. He has toured with the Chicago Symphony, New York Philharmonic and Philharmonia Hungarica. Kleiankina performed “Carnival of the Animals” with pianist Anatoly Larkin. Larkin is from Russia and has studied and written music since the age of four. He has studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London and moved to Raleigh in 2005 to work with music technology company Zenph. “I always try to pick pieces that will be interesting to the audience, so I knew they would like to do ‘Carnival of the Animals,’” Kleiankina said.

Staff Report

Homecoming at N.C. State officially ended Saturday. In total, the University hosted 42 Homecoming events, including a Cupcake War, blood drive and several reunions for each college. One thousand people attended the annual Ram Roast, and 34 Hillsborough Street vendors participated in Paint the Town Red on Oct. 28. “After winning the ‘Most Outstanding Tried and True Program’ award from the Council of Advancement and Support of Education last year, we could not be more thrilled with how N.C. State’s 126th Homecoming week went,” said Emily Collier, co-director of the Homecoming committee. During the canned food drive Wednesday, the University collected 23,379 cans, breaking its goal of 16,500. This food will be donated to Triangle-based food shelters. “We went above and beyond many goals that we set for participation, service and overall expectation of events,” Collier said.

The certification is offered by the University Sustainability Office for events that incorporate sustainable choices involving food, waste reduction, purchasing, education, marketing, transportation, energy, water and service. This year’s Homecoming was nearly paperless because of a new mobile app, which included details on utilizing alternative transit to events along with other Homecoming details. Collier said the Homecoming committee experienced much success through the Red and White Homecoming app, which debuted this

year and was downloaded 3,723 times. Kate Howie, the Homecoming director, said that the committee has been planning the Homecoming events since December 2012. “We are always inspired by our passion for this university,” Howie said. “All of our events are geared towards providing a celebratory environment for students and alumni, alike. Homecoming, at its core, brings us all together to cherish and appreciate all of the great things that this university has provided for each one of us.” Due to inclement weather,

organizers cancelled the Homecoming parade, which was set to take place Friday. As a result, the Thomas H. Stafford Jr. Spirit Bell award was given at halftime during the game Saturday. The award is given each year to the winner of the Alumni Association’s Homecoming Spirit Competition. Kappa Delta and Theta Chi took first place, Delta Gamma and Pi Kappa Phi took second, and Sigma Alpha Omega and Beta Upsilon Chi claimed third.

The audience gave each performance an ovation, especially after the “Carnival of the Animals” performance, because of the unique set up of the pianos and style of the song.

in comparison to one another because states have different curriculums and tests. The NAEP is often referred to as the nation’s report card because it is the only test administered nationwide, The Atlantic reported.

Two pianos were set up beside each other so both pianists could see each other while they performed together. According to David Jones, a technical director at Titmus Theatre, both pianos had to be put next to each other so each keyboard could be tuned simultaneously. “It was rare and different for a performance to have the two pianos set up next to each other and positioned so each artist can see each other,” Jones said. Kleiankina has played the piano for 27 years. She has performed with orchestras from Moldova, Romania, United States and Russia. In 2010, Kleiankina debuted a piano concerto written by N.C.

Some professors ban the use of cellphones in class because of the level of distraction they cause. However, 37 percent of respondents said their personal use of cellphones don’t create a distraction and another 52 percent said that they only distracted them a little bit. Anita Flick, the N.C.

more distracted thinking about what they were missing,” Flick said. Flick said the problem isn’t texting itself, but how little some students try to keep it hidden to avoid distracting their peers. “I had a student last semester that not only did not attempt to use her cell[phone] in her lap, but she actually texted throughout almost the entire class holding it up and in front of her face,” Flick said. “It is slightly distracting when people at the front don’t even attempt to hide it.” Stanisic also said she thinks banning cellphones would cause students to want to use them more, and that the only times that professors should be worried about usage is during exams and quizzes. “If there is a possibility of

cheating, then the phones should definitely go away,” Stanisic said. “I have seen people try and look up answers on their phones in the middle of tests, and that is really annoying.” Neal Patel, a freshman in biological sciences, said texting in class is no worse than having a conversation with the person next to you. “It is probably less distracting,” Patel said. “Obviously there are times where phones shouldn’t be out. In big lecture halls it’s better to have it quiet with some phones out than listen to bunch of laughing and talking going on.” Patel said people text during class because the digital age has changed social norms. “People used to pass notes to talk to each other in class and now they text,” Patel

said. “They are going to try and communicate with each other no matter what restrictions you put in place.” Some professors, such as Flick, are choosing to embrace the change rather than fight it. “I would like to go to smartphone driven quizzing instead of having students buy clickers in the future,” Flick said. Flick said that she has not considered banning cellphones in her classrooms for personal use. “I feel I have much bigger things to focus on with my students,” Flick said. “They all tend to be fairly respectful and appropriate, so I don’t have a problem.”

In response to ‘Cut the rich clown’s welfare check’

agree that income inequality is a significant problem in our country, but more importantly I believe that access to income inequality is a far greater problem. The difference is that when you speak only about income inequality, you fail to recognize Cameron exactly why there is income Ferguson inequality in the first place. Guest Columnist The answer is that the people at the top have far greater access to income than the people at the bottom. The wealthy most likely attended far better schools, were better prepared for success by their parents and environment and had more access to capital than those at the bottom. We can best close the gap between the top and bottom, in the long run, by closing the gap between accesses to income. This can be done through things such as increased education funding to provide workers with the skills necessary to be more competitive in the market, or providing government sponsored interest-free loans, and small business tax credits for low-income people who have good business plans. These programs would need increased financial investments, and I do agree that highly profitable corporations should increase their contribution to such programs. That is why I would propose not to raise the minimum wage, but to instead raise the corporate income tax and/or the top income tax brackets. What guarantee does the government have that minimum wage workers will invest all their money properly in areas that will help them move up in society and away from low-skill jobs, such as investing in their own or their children’s education, or making financial investments that will pro-

vide for their future? Raising the minimum wage would be one way to redistribute the wealth, but frankly I think it would be like putting a Band-Aid on a cancerous tumor. It may look nice but it sure doesn’t solve the main problem: Low skill workers make low wages because they have low skills. If we’re going to tax business, let’s make sure the revenue from that tax is in full control of the government, so the chance of it being invested properly is increased. The government can also control prices better if the redistribution is done through social programs, so the private market doesn’t cancel the effect of the redistribution by simply raising prices in accordance with the increases wages. A low wage in the fast-food industry and increased corporate tax revenue used to decrease education cost would incentivize workers to move away from being used by McDonald’s and instead learn the skills necessary to compete with the McDonald’s of the world. On the other hand, what incentive does a lowskilled worker have to seek education if their wages are raised? One last point: You claim a rich person saving their money doesn’t contribute to the economy. What do you think they’re doing with their money? Stuffing it in their mattress? Rich people save just the same as anyone else. By investing their money in businesses, the stock market or banks who then invest in business, their money affects the economy just the same as anyone elses—by contributing to the national pool of capital that drives economic growth.

Don’t save Daylight Saving Time

hope you remembered to set your clocks back this weekend. Sunday at 2 a.m. marked the end of Daylight Saving Time and officially welcomed the dark months of winter to come. For most of u s , t he hour change is simply an extra hour of sleep or our one chance Tyler Gobin to travel back Staff Columnist in time, but DST has had a more controversial history than most would assume. DST is often associated with Benjamin Franklin, but it was not proposed until 1895 by George Vernon Hudson, an entomologist from New Zealand. He presented a paper to the Wellington Philosophical Society for a two-hour daylight shift because of the value he placed on after-hour’s daylight. Shortly after Hudson’s proposal, an English outdoorsman named William Willett also developed the DST idea after noticing how many Londoners slept through a majority of summer days. His proposal developed into a bill in 1908, but never turned into a law. Though each proposal never turned into a law under their jurisdiction, it wasn’t long until DST was first officially adopted. During World War I, Germany and its allies were the first to adopt DST in order to conserve coal during wartime. The rest of the countries involved in WWI soon

followed suit with the United States agreeing to it in 1918. After wartime, DST was abandoned but made reappearances in several countries until the 1970’s when it was finally widely adopted. The reasoning behind DST was to utilize more daylight in the later part of the day during the summer and conserve electricity. People were assumed to forgo the daylight in the morning hours and require more electricity at night, but studies by the Department of Transportation revealed that DST did not conserve electricity. People apparently use t he sa me amount of electricity regardless of whether not there are more hours of daylight at night. Nowadays, I don’t completely understand the continued use of DST. Look at it this way — when we set the clock forward in the spring, it is like were hitting the snooze button on the sun. On March 10 the sun was supposed to rise at 6:32 a.m. in Raleigh, but instead rose at 7:32 a.m. because that was the night we set our clocks forward an hour. Benjamin Franklin famously quoted, “Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” It’s understandable that not everyone can get up that

early, but we shouldn’t need an excuse as drastic as DST to account for it. Not even all 50 states abide by DST. Hawaii and Arizona have chosen to opt out of the national snooze button, which causes confusion during summer vacations when traveling to Phoenix or Honolulu. And all of the Asian countries continue to opt out of DST. Lastly, why does summer get to have all the fun whenwinter gets screwed? Instead of it getting dark at about 6 p.m. during the winter, it gets dark at 5 p.m. because DST doesn’t hold up a l l yea r r o u n d . We already suffer through with less daylight du r i n g t h e winter so why make it worse? I rea lize if DST were adopted during the winter it could also be called a permanent change because then we would never, “spring forward,” or “fall back,” but as soon as the first change is made it never has to be made again. Time is completely relative and something we’ve learned to abide by anyway, so why not make DST permanent and give winter back some of its daylight. Summer will still have its extended after-hours daylight, but winter can join the fun.

“ ... DST has had a more controversial history than most would assume.”

{ IN YOUR WORDS } Should our slogan still be “this is our state?” BY CHRIS RUPERT

“Its kind of like our thing, and we’ve had a ton of people who’ve done the videos. What else would our slogan be besides this is our state?”

“I actually didn’t know the slogan so it doesn’t particularly matter to me.”

“I think we should keep it as our state because if we don’t, then we’re just giving up to Carolina. So it should still be our state.”

“No because we can’t keep saying that if we keep losing. We can’t be claiming our state if we’re not better than everybody else.”

“No because everybody else in our state keeps beating us.”

Professor’s photography captures N.C. artists at work Emma Cathell Staff Writer

N.C. State professor of sociology Michael Schwalbe has a photography exhibit at the Durham Arts Council. The exhibit, A View to the Making: Portraits of North Carolina Craft Artists at Work, will be on display until Nov. 10, and it comprises 25 black-and-white film photographs of craft artists at work. “You see, in the photographs, the artists in their studios doing the kind of things they do when a photographer is not around,” Schwalbe said. Schwalbe includes a brief description with each photo by way of text panels. Schwalbe interviewed each of the artists he photographed and included an excerpt of their interviews in the text panels. “It gives more information,” Schwalbe said. “It helps you understand more about what these people do and what’s important to them about craft. You can see what they’re doing, what the people look like and their studios or their shops in the photographs, but then you also get a chance to learn something about how they think about their work by reading these excerpts.” Schwalbe started the project in May 2009 and finished in the spring of 2012.

“Bill Wallace”

Although this is a recent project, Schwalbe said he has been interested in craftwork for years. Schwalbe said he had been interested in craftwork since his dissertation days, when he studied how people experience industrial production. Schwalbe said he became interested in photography when he was 8 years old in 1964. “I used to take photographs that were black and white with my little Brownie camera that I must have gotten as a gift from someone,” Schwalbe said. “I was a pest with a camera as a kid, but now members of my family are happy that I took all those pictures. Even later, as I was getting older, I think I still had that interest in it — in part because there were people in my family who liked photography and got excited about pictures.” One of Schwalbe’s grandfathers was a photographer, and he said having that role model greatly inspired him to pursue his hobby. “I think that was a source of my attraction to it, the fact that one of my favorite grandfathers was a photographer,” Schwalbe said. “He was a machinist by trade, but he also had a part-time wedding-and-portrait photography business. He gave me the film for free that I shot up in

my little camera.” A View to the Making is not Schwalbe’s only public photography display. He published two documentary styled books, one in 2004 and one in 2011. Both books include photographs and others’ personal stories. A View to the Making is his third solo exhibit since 2000, and Schwalbe has another coming soon to N.C. State’s Craft Center in the spring of 2014. Schwalbe will display his

current exhibit at the Craft Center and will participate in at least one discussion panel in conjunction with it. “I think the people here – students, faculty, staff, should have convenient access to the work of a faculty member,” Schwalbe said. “So I’m delighted that it will be at the Crafts Center. It will be easier for people here on campus to see, so I’m looking forward to that.” This photography project allowed Schwalbe to return to his interest in photography, but he also said he hopes that his viewers will get something out of the exhibit too. “I hope it helps people understand what craft is about,

Schwalbe’s craft artist project may not be complete after the exhibition in the Craft Center. He may further the project by publishing these images and information from the interviews into another book. “I’d originally thought I might do a book, and that still could happen,” Schwalbe said. “The thing about an exhibit is that it goes up. It’s up for weeks. And then it comes down and kind of evaporates. Whereas, if you can turn it into a book or a catalog, then it endures and people can keep enjoying it and learning from it for a long time.”

what it means to take care in making something and making something as well as you can possibly make it,” Schwalbe said. “I want them to appreciate the knowledge and skill that go into making craft objects. I want them to see with whom they could have relationships in a sense of buying their work or seeing their work or appreciating their work. With craft, unlike mass-produced objects, there’s a person on the other end of the process. You can get to know that person – you can acquire their work and use it. You can appreciate the skill that went into it, the beauty of the object and its functionality.”

A look into the world of professors’ offices Sara Awad Staff Writer

Professors’ offices might as well be their homes away from home. Some keep their workspace simple—a desk, a chair and a few photos—others seize the opportunity to decorate the space. Below are a few professors and a look at how they enhance their workspaces.

DENNIS DALEY

In the office of Dennis Daley, professor of public administration, an array of stuffed animals adorned in academic regalia greets students from the back corner of the room. While the plush toys may seem odd, Daley said they are there to help visiting students relax. “Suddenly they see the stuffed animals, and it eases things a little and becomes a thing to start a conversation,” Daley said. According to Daley, the academic regalia they wear symbolize the university atmosphere. Next to Daley’s desk sits a stuffed The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey Mouse. “The sorcerer’s apprentice reminds me to not take my research so seriously,” Daley said. Photos from around the world, illustrations of his travels, also line Daley’s walls as a means of interesting graduate and international students who stop by, according to Daley.

DAUN DAEMON

In Tompkins Hall, fish from the Cayman Islands hang

from the ceiling of English senior lecturer Daun Daemon’s office suite. A large, blue tapestry of giraffes from Cape Town, South Africa, covers the wall. Daemon even decorated her chair by draping a red and green patterned cloth from India over it. “I like having items around me that make me happy,” Daemon said.

WALT WOLFRAM

A couple of doors down from Daemon’s office, a lifesized photo of Walt Wolfram, professor of English, in a fairy godmother costume from a Halloween party at Ocracoke Island greets visitors. “Students dressed me up as the fairy godmother and took $20 from me to buy stuff from yard sales [to complete the costume],” Wolfram said. Wolfram said he was impressed with the results, especially since they were able to find stockings and size 12 men’s slippers. The photo used to be displayed on a stand in a corner across from the door, but Wolfram said it was too “distracting” for students, so he moved it to the back corner for more control as to who gets to see it. “The chancellor saw it, but he didn’t know exactly what to do with it,” Wolfram said. Other interesting items in Wolfram’s office include his father’s old lunch pail, a dream catcher made by Lumbee Indians and a photo of a famous moonshiner. “Everything has some sort of symbolism,” Wolfram said.

UV the

SANDY PAUR In SAS Hall, mathematics associate professor Sandy Paur displays her North Dakota heritage and personality through artwork in her office. “I was looking at all of these grey walls and how depressing it was,” Paur said. “But when you put things on it, they really pop.” Her collection includes paintings of the Missouri River, Topsail Beach and Bryce Canyon as well as American pottery and masks from Ghana. However, furniture also makes or breaks the feel of an office, according to Paur. “I did not want big, black filing cabinets because they are overpowering,” Paur said. Paur said her husband made her desk. Its position provides an open space for her to comfortably talk with students, according to Paur.

ANNA BIGELOW

Anna Bigelow, associate professor of Islamic studies, uses her office to reflect on her travels and research. A prayer rug clothing her bookshelf gives way to cultural artwork, which includes a photo of the fifteenth century Ottoman mosque Eski Cami, as well as a thangka, the Buddhist Wheel of Life. “I try to make my space less institutional looking,” Bigelow said. “My mother and sister are both artists, so I’m not used to it.”

HEIDI HOBBS

of international studies, decorated her office with dolls from all across the world. “It started when I was at Illinois State,” Hobbs said. “One of my students brought me back a doll from Greece and a second student brought one from India.” From then on, her collection grew through the travels of both herself and her students. Hobbs said she tries to group the dolls by region, placing dolls from the Americas on the right shelf and dolls from the other side of the world on the left. Two of her favorite pieces, Hobbs said, are her stuffed hairy coo, a type of cow found in Scotland, as well as a tuk-tuk, a type of rickshaw used in India. “It’s a fun way to get around,” Hobbs said. “People

will reach in and try to talk to you, the wind is blowing, and it’s wide open.” Hobbs said she also takes pride in the paintings in her office. Created by the former head of political science and public administration, each depicts a landscape from a different country, including Ireland, Mongolia, Hungary, Nepal and Sri Lanka.

WILLIAM FLOWERS

Animal science professor William Flowers has a collection of about 800 toy pigs in his Polk Hall office. Flowers said he got them as gifts because he uses pigs in a lot of the courses he teaches, such as Introduction to Animal Science, in which students help deliver baby piglets, and also because he gives talks around the world about the collection of pig semen.

“My favorite is the pig who poops red jelly beans,” Flowers said, referring to one of the toy pigs in his office. Flowers has a total of about 2,500 toy pigs, but not all of them would fit in his office, Flowers said. “Pigs are usually the underdogs, but they are actually really neat and they form really strong bonds with their caretakers,” Flowers said. Another striking feature of Flowers’ office is his wolf prints. He said his fascination of wolves started when he thought he wanted to be a wildlife biologist and was studying the social interaction among wolves and their breeding hierarchy.

Warren said that playing a small lineup lets the athletic Wolfpack play its preferred style of basketball. “We’ve got great finishers on this team, so we want to get out in transition as much as possible,” Warren said. “But it all starts on the defensive end to lead to that so we don’t have to be in the half-court as much.” Freshman point guard Anthony “Cat” Barber looked noticeably more comfortable against Morehouse than he did against UNC-Pembroke on Wednesday.

State. said he expects the freshman to mature quickly. “I think Cat is going to get better and better by the game,” Gottfried said. “I said it before, I’d hate for that guy to guard me. If I had the ball, I’d never bounce it if he was playing defense on me. I’d play hot potato and just move it to the next guy.” Gottfried said that the two exhibition games gave his players a chance to gain experience before the start of the regular season. “Playing two exhibition games helped our team and helped our young guys,” Gottfried said. “I thought even from the first game to the second, we got a little bit better.” N.C. State kicks off regular season action on Friday against Appalachian State.

thing, especially against our rivals.” State kept its penalties to a minimum, committing six on Saturday for 32 yards. But the Wolfpack lost a key starter early in the game as a result of a targeting penalty, which entails an automatic ejection if confirmed by replay officials. Midway through the first quarter, the officials ejected N.C. State’s senior starting linebacker D.J. Green. The officials judged Green to have come in with a late hit on UNC’s ball carrier, who was already on the ground. Green’s departure left State’s defense without its fourthleading tack ler for t he remainder of the contest. In the third quarter, UNC’s senior cornerback Jabari Price was also f lagged for a targeting penalty after a helmet-to-helmet hit on Mitchell. The automatic ejection of Price, the Heels’

fourth-leading tackler, could have been a huge turning point in the game. But on further review, the officials reversed the decision to eject Price, keeping him in the game. D o e re n s a id he w a s disappointed with the way the officiating crew enforced the rule on Saturday. “I think that rule is a bad rule, and I think that’s been

expressed by a lot of coaches,” Doeren said. “It’s not evenly officiated, it’s a judgment call. There’s too much margin for error with that rule change. I understand the intent of the rule, but it’s a bad rule change.” “If you get in a big game, especially if you’re a team that has very little depth, and the [officials] make a call like that [against Green],

especially when they don’t reciprocate with a hit on our quarterback that they didn’t even call. And then the next hit, which was clearly a helmet-to-helmet hit that they overrule, I just don’t get it… It’s something that needs to be changed at the end of the season.”

UNC-Chapel Hill beat N.C. State in Raleigh for the first time since 2005, defeating the Wolfpack 27-19 on Saturday afternoon at Carter-Finley Stadium. “The game came down to mistakes for us, we made too many,” N.C. State head coach Dave Doeren said. “We dropped a couple of balls that we needed to catch and threw a couple of balls we shouldn’t have thrown. There’s not much margin for error when you play like that on offense.” “Anytime you lose a rivalry game, it’s going to sting, it’s going to hurt and there’s no excuses for it [losing].” Graduate student quar terback Bra ndon Mitchell became the first Wolfpack quarterback since 1976 to run for more than 100 yards.

the last 6:20 of the game. “He [Mitchell] was forcing balls into coverage that I told him he couldn’t throw,” Doeren said. “I said ‘If it’s not there, throw it away.’ He

didn’t, so I took him out.” “I’m mad at myself,” Mitchell said. “I turned the ball over twice, two plays in the game that hurt us. We had a chance to win, and I cost

the first seven minutes of the game. But sophomore running back Shadrach Thornton said State’s players missed opportunities and were wasteful in the red zone. “We’re in the red zone four times in the first half, and we get one touchdown a nd t hree f ield goa ls,” sophomore running back Shadrach Thornton said. “That’s 21 points we missed out on.

Three points is ok, but we need touchdowns.” The Wolfpack ran the ball effectively against the Heels, racking up 232 yards on the ground. But Thornton, who had 99 rushing yards, said he was disappointed with the loss. “I don’t care if I have four yards rushing,” Thornton said. “If we get the win, then that’s what matters.

State sails past Tigers, ready for season Deputy Sports Editor & Correspondent

Sophomore forward T.J. Warren recorded his second straight doubledouble as N.C. State eased past Morehouse on Saturday afternoon at PNC Arena. Warren scored 26 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, both game-highs, in State’s 87-62 win against the Maroon Tigers. The preseason All-American was efficient on the offensive end, scoring his points on 11-15 shooting. “I think T.J. can score as well as anyone in the country,” head coach Mark Gottfried said. “He doesn’t take bad shots, and he shoots a terrific percentage. But my challenge for him is to become a complete player, not just an offensive scorer, but also a good defender. He knows if we play a small lineup, he’s got to be a key rebounder for us and he’s done that too.” Warren said that he is putting less emphasis on scoring and more on rebounding. “I just want to focus on rebounding first and let the offense just come to me,” Warren said. “I don’t want to force the issue. My teammates are going to get me open so I trust them and they trust me.” “It all starts with defense, that’s our identity. If we’re aggressive on defense, it leads to easy buckets on offense.” With senior center Jordan Vandenberg out for four to six weeks with a grade three sprain of his left ankle, according to N.C. State Athletics, Gottfried has been forced into fielding a smaller lineup. The 7’ 1” Vandenberg, who was injured in Wednesday’s exhibition against UNC-Pembroke, is State’s only player who stands taller than 6’9”. Gottfried will lean heavily on freshman forwards Lennard Freeman and Kyle
