Despite having no more than a day to find a new venue, the De-sign Council managed to host yet another Halloween Design Bash Saturday night — in the Coliseum Parking Deck.

Typically held at The Pit, an am-phitheater next to Kamphoefner Hall, the Design Council was forced to move the Bash, due to a stormy forecast and a expected turnout of more than 400 students. Accord-ing to Stephen Killian, a junior in environmental design in archi-tecture, this news was something the Design Counci l was unprepared for, and many were nervous because all the decorations had been prepared with The Pit in mind.

However, with help from Marvin Malecha, the dean of the College of Design, the Halloween Design Bash continued without a hitch, Killian said.

“The dean has a really high ‘wor-ship-level’ at our school,” Killian said. “I always thought of him as a typical dean until we came up to him and said we had a problem. He helped us out and told us to use our creative process. Then when we came up with a solution, he was 100 percent behind it and he immedi-ately made one phone call and we had four officials of the school and a vice chancellor ready to help us.”

Although many attendees had

mixed feelings about the changed location, many were thankful that the event was still possible. Among them was Christin King, a sopho-more in design studies and president of Design Council.

King said that for as long as she can remember, the annual Bash has been an important tradition for the College of Design and the Wolfpack community. With a $250 budget, the event promised thousands of dollars in return for the Design Council and its programming.

However, many attendees said the money it raises isn’t the only rea-son why the Bash is beloved by many.

“I c ome e v-ery year,” Ginny Young, a junior in landscape archi-tecture, said. “I’m a junior, so I’ve been here freshman and sophomore year as well. It is the design

event of the fall and in the spring everyone goes to Art to Wear. Be-cause College of Design is smaller than all the other colleges, we’re a really tight group and this is another fun thing that we can do to meet all the other people.”

According to David Gallo, a ju-nior in environmental design archi-tecture, this feeling of community is something that the Design Council put a concerted effort into expand-ing to other colleges outside of the College of Design.

University Recreation at N.C. State and Bandwidth held a 5k on Centennial Campus Sunday, Oct. 28, for Homecoming week-end.

More than 50 students, faculty, Centennial affiliate employees and alumni showed up to take part in the first Homecoming 5K despite the chilly, overcast weather. The 5K was not a fund-raiser, and signup was free due to Bandwidth’s sponsorship.

Construction on a new Hillsbor-ough Street apartment complex di-rectly across from D.H. Hill Library will begin this week.

The proposed four-story building will have 12 three-bedroom apart-ments and three one-bedroom units along with 1,500 square feet of retail space on the ground floor. Construction is scheduled to be completed by mid-summer of 2013.

New City Design Group will con-struct the building with their archi-tect Ted Van Dyk.

Hundreds of people filled City Plaza on Fayetteville Street for the first Raleigh Living Dead festival Saturday.

More than 18 organizations worked together to host Raleigh’s first large-scale Halloween fes-tival.

Recent economic revitalization in the greater Triangle area has opened new markets catering to students and young profession-als. With this new interest, the area is developing away from the traditional family-centered eve-ning social life to become more attractive to college students.

Sagar Patel, a junior in busi-ness administration, and Rachel Benton, a sophomore in chemi-cal engineering, attended the festival for more than just fun. The two volunteered along with Alpha Phi Omega, a service fra-ternity, to provide an entertain-ing festival for Raleigh.

“The festival allows college students a glimpse of downtown, especially before finals. It’s a nice chance to relax,” Patel said.

Daniel Albright, systems engi-neer at Ultimate Entertainment for 12 years, supervised the sound and light-ing equipment used for all six band sets at the festival.

“ T h e l a s t couple years, outdoor live en-tertainment has slowed with the economy, but it’s coming back,” Albright said.

Ultimate Entertainment, the company Albright works for, col-laborated with the Lincoln Theatre

to put on the Ra-leigh Living Dead festival. The crew, who mostly work part-time with the company, came prepared for the intense setup, lay-over and sound checks for all six bands that played at the festival.

“Different bands have different setups for their in-struments, only the bass and drums

stay on the stage for all six [bands],” Albright said.

One of the bands, Picture, played songs characterized by strolling beats and tambourine-accompanied crooning vocals. The set began as the members of the band, dressed like zombies, rose from thick fog covering the stage and began to play a creepy melody.

“For our company, this festival was a group effort. Everyone knows what to do to put on a good show,” Albright said.

Recreation about the event, according to Bandwidth rep-resentative Noreen Allen.

“We are proud to be a part of N.C. State’s Centennial Campus,” Allen said. “This is a great way to support Homecoming week and build awareness for Band-width.”

Bandwidth will also be sponsoring other Home-coming events, like “Wear Red, Get Fed” in the Brick-yard all week and an alumni tailgate for Saturday’s game.

University Recreation also played a major role in Sun-day’s event and wanted to get people excited about Home-coming week by getting them more involved, said Matt Seibring, assistant di-rector for competitive sports.

“Our main goal is to have an event that the campus community wants to be a part of,” Seibring said. “We want to run a high quality event that attracts a lot of people, we want people to en-joy themselves, and we want to become more of a part of Homecoming. This will now be an annual event, and we hope this event continues to grow and more people con-tinue to support it.” University Recreation and

Bandwidth both had tents set up for registration and handed out water, fruit and t-shirts. Representatives from both University Recreation and Band-width spoke to the run-ners be-fore t he 5k star t-e d . T he race went through-out Centennial Campus, and police officers directed traffic at designated crosswalks.

In addition to the 5K, a variety of events will be go-ing on during Homecoming week:

On Monday, the “Wear Red, Get Fed” event will provide free food from Chile Bomba to students wearing red. Also

on Mon-d a y i s the spirit banner competi-t ion i n which students will cre-ate ban-ners for the 125th anniver-

sary of N.C. State using the 2012 Homecoming theme, “a Wolfpack state of mind.”

Tuesday starts with the blood drive in the Talley Ball-room, as well as the Home-coming cupcake war benefit-

ing the Kay Yow Foundation. Different teams will sell their cupcakes in the Brickyard between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., with the winner being determined from sales and judging.

The canned food drive in the Brickyard Wednesday will benefit local Triangle food shelters, and there will be a showing of Ghostbusters at Harris Field at 7:00p.m. that night.

“Paint the Tunnel” and the Pep Rally will be Thursday, and the Hillsborough Street Music Festival and the Poole Col lege of Management Porch Party at Nelson Hall will be Friday.

to Hillsborough Street,” Van Dyk said. “I think the more people living on Hillsborough Street, the more vibrant the street will be.”

The complex will be named 2604 Hillsborough Street, which will serve both as an address and an identity for the building. It has an urban design and will be just a few feet away from the street.

“The design is contem-porary because we just thought that it’s time to have something a little more ‘today’ on Hillsbor-ough Street, something cool instead of old-timey,” Van Dyk said.

The 18,000-square-foot building will feature a pri-vate patio for residents in the rear and parking for bikes and scooters. How-ever, it will not include a

car parking lot.“I think it’s sort of a forward

thinking project not having [car] parking because I think it encourages people to try to live in the University’s com-munity,” Van Dyk said. “If you live right across from the library and you live right on Hillsborough Street, what do you need a car for, you know? You got the Wolfline and the city of Raleigh busses.”

Severa l reta i lers have contacted New City Design Group about the free space on the bottom f loor. Van Dyk said there will be extra sitting room out front to ac-commodate a restaurant or coffee shop.

“The best way to make places better is to have people living there because every-body who lives there stays all day instead of coming for a couple hours and just blowing out,” Van Dyk said. “Their residents are there in the mornings, at night and on the weekends.”

Van Dyk used downtown Raleigh as an example of a

livelier atmosphere due to population increases. The area has added hundreds of new apartments within a small radius in recent years.

“That’s going to be 2,000 new people living in down-town,” Van Dyk said. “Those people all want coffee, they all want lunch, they all want places to shop and places to see music. It’s really good for the intercourse of Raleigh the more people who can move into the city.”

Unfortunately, for most construction projects, there has to be some sort of de-struction. The brick house with a red awning was torn down to prepare the site for the new complex.

Ryan Collier and Robby Callis were two of the few residents to have lived in this house.

“The stoop on that house was kind of a refuge for our shenanigans,” Callis said. “It’s too bad it had to come down.”

Collier said the new apart-ments will be a great addition

to Hillsborough Street, but the old house was irreplace-able.

“Being one of the only people to live on Hillsbor-ough Street, we turned it into more of a community than a house,” Collier said. “There should be a historic establishment sign in front of the apartments that says, ‘Here lies the Stoop.’”

With the growth of N.C. State, it comes as little sur-prise that more housing projects are being built near campus.

“I think that the new build-ing really shows the strength of N.C. State, that people are so interested investing across the street from the Univer-sity,” Van Dyk said. “This building would not be built right now if it was not for N.C. State across the Street.”

we get the feeling of commu-nity, and we strive to make it happen more,” Gallo said. “Other stu-dents don’t get that ex-perience all the time. In some col-leges, you’re one of thou-sands, here, you’re one of only 750.”

Michael Lane, a ju-nior in chemical engineering, came to the Bash for the first time this year.

“It was cool that it was in the Coliseum parking deck,”

Lane said. “I’ve parked here a few times and now we get to party here and hang out. It’s certainly an unorthodox location.”

Among the new changes, this year’s Bash also fea-

tured a food truck and ac-cepted credit card readers. According to attendees such as Ric Chapman, a senior in aerospace engineering, these addi-tions helped

add to the atmosphere. “It’s an excellent atmo-

sphere for sure,” Chapman said. “There are lots of crazy outfits and people are having

fun.”Chapman said he came to

the Bash for the first time this year with a few of his friends majoring in engineering be-cause one of his friends in the College of Design said it was a lot of fun.

“Design kids are legit,” Chapman said.

With more than 650 people in attendance and almost $7000 raised, King considers this year’s Bash to have been a success.

“I think it went really well,” King said. “The students were really pleased with the over-all experience, so I feel that through the decorations, the people and the costumes they wore and the DJs and the De-sign Council worked together as a whole, it turned into a re-ally cool environment.”

ENGAGING IN A BIT OF RIVALRY

BOBBY KLIMCZAK/TECHNICIANAustin Wrenn, a freshman in agriculture business, slams a cream pie into Mackenzie Tilley’s face, a sophomore in engineering at the “Cream a carolina fan” stand in the Brickyard on Thursday. Mackenzie said, “We are here to raise money for the WISE program.” “Who wouldn’t want to push a pie into the face of a Carolina fan?” Austin asked.

First Year College, heard about the festival and show through Living So-cial.

“Raleigh does a good job of hosting events for fami-lies. I don’t know if that could be said for college students,” Appleyard said.

Appleyard attended the event with Alli Rothen-buhler, who went to Cen-tennial Campus Middle School and hopes to at-tend N.C. State. Appleyard and Rothenbuhler both said they decided to at-tend N.C. State for reasons

other than the social scenes. “When I attended Centen-

nial Campus Middle, I got to work with N.C. State stu-dents, which influenced me a lot in applying for schools,” Rothenbuler said. “I’ve been around the community, so to speak.”

Sargent Kenneth Hopkins worked the festival as part of the Raleigh police force. Because of the large crowds, pickpocketing and car theft are the most common crimes reported at events like the Ra-leigh Living Dead festival.

“The generation in college needs to rely on law enforce-ment for assistance. We’re seen as a bother, and stu-dents are less likely to report

crime,” Hopkins said. “So we try to become more accessible to students: we’ve digitized and welcome suggestions to problems in the area and spe-cific to students.”

The event kicked off the Halloween festivities with creative fun for all and the right atmosphere. Events like the Michael Jackson-in-spired “Thriller” flash mob and zombie fashion shows displayed a budding tradi-tion of holiday-inspired fun with local food, music and costumes.

Response to “Will their blood be on your hands?”

I would like to respond to Joshua Chen’s guest column “Will their blood be on your hands?” The article seems to be about whether drone attacks should continue or not. When presenting his viewpoint, Mr. Chen uses many fallacies. Mr. Chen states that “This program is creating more ‘terrorists’ than it kills — if you can even call them that,” and this is wishful thinking. It is convenient to assume this is true, so he does. Furthermore, I take issue with the statement “Sure, we’ve killed some high-ranking leaders from al-Qaida and the Taliban — but at what cost?” This loaded question also suppresses evidence: Mr. Chen neglects the benefits of drone attacks. He merely assumes the costs outweigh the benefits.If we are willing to accept that killing Taliban and al-Qaida leaders is a desirable goal (there is much evidence suggesting it is), Mr. Chen does not mention that alternatives to drone strikes might be more costly in terms of civilian lives. In fact, a political science professor stated in a recent New York Times opinion piece that “there is evidence that drone strikes are less harmful to civilians than other means of reaching al-Qaida and affiliates in remote, lawless regions.”

Response to In Your Words answer

I was blown away and slightly infuriated when I read an answer to one of Technician’s “In Your Words” questions. The question was “How have the debates influenced your votes?” One freshman answered, “It didn’t influence me because I vote with my party, specifically because my family is the same way.” I don’t know him, and I don’t know what tone he answered that in, be it a sarcastic, honest, and/or insightful tone.I have found it interesting

how different people develop certain political beliefs, such as how there are blue states and red states. It can’t be the geographical location that influences your political ideology — it must be something social.I grew up in Collin County, TX, ranked 6th most conservative-friendly county in the U.S.A. Until partway through my junior year in high school, I was pretty darn conservative. I defended George W. Bush and was upset when that socialist Obama was elected. I held this ideology because that is what the environment mostly was. It wasn’t until someone asked me “WWJB?” (Whom would Jesus bomb?) that I began to critically think about the political opinions that I held. I was fortunate enough to have parents who played devil’s advocate to my beliefs at this moment, because I was conservative because many of my peers were. It wasn’t until I was 18 that I found out my mom’s political opinions and it wasn’t until a few months ago I found out my dad’s.My point in this letter isn’t to promote or encourage a certain political ideology, but to promote critical thinking. I heard a girl on my high school’s varsity basketball team talk about how amazing Obama was. I politely asked her to name the top five reasons she liked Obama. She couldn’t name one. My guess is that she, like the freshman in Technician, held her beliefs because her family held those beliefs. Should it be that way? What about my cousin in elementary school who thinks the worst natural disaster that could happen to the U.S.A. would be Obama’s re-election? How on Earth could a third grader have any knowledge about the complexity of our political environment?I think that critical thinking and devil advocates are essential to developing a sound, logical and personal political opinion. When people bash either President Obama or Governor Romney, I like to ask them to name five reasons why they would be a GOOD president in the next four years. Their answers let me know whether or not this person’s opinion is worth anything.Folks, it is not wrong to have the same opinions as your parents or to vote straight party. It is only wrong if you have the same opinions and vote straight party BECAUSE of your parents or political party.

The delusion of E-VerifyShrewd politicians

often make ap-pealing promises

to their supporters, but public policies led by those

prom-ises tend to have conse-quences contrary to their inten-tions.

With political incentives, the legislatures of states like Georgia, South Caro-lina, Arizona and others have already passed bills that mandate all employ-ers to access E-Verify to identify employees’ eligi-bility to work.

In the United States, employing undocument-ed workers is prevalent among agricultural and food service industries. A substantial portion of workers in these indus-tries receive cash wages rather than paychecks going through the tax system. Some lament that undocumented workers don’t pay taxes while still enjoying public services.

Proponents of E-Verify argue the program will reduce the number of undocumented work-ers in the U.S. and thus save jobs for American cit izens. However, a more extensive examina-tion illustrates that this program is nothing but a “business death penalty,” as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce described in a lawsuit against Legal Ari-zona Workers Act, costing thousands of jobs for both legal and undocumented workers.

The “saving jobs” argu-

ment ignores the incentive of individual calculations driven by the price system, signaling the best decision an individual should make in a marketplace. Employers set a price in the labor market by considering a wide range of information including opera-tional costs, business strate-gies, legal regulations, etc.

From the supply side of the labor market, prospective employees take factors into account like living expense and family size to decide if they need to enter the mar-ket. Since these jobs do not require much skill or ad-vanced education, entering into the market is seen as having no barrier, which to a great extent can be defined as a competitive market.

With an increasing num-ber of states introducing E-Verify as a mandate for all business, a reshaping of the entire industry appears to be imminent. The agribusi-ness finds no way to raise the wage rate without adding the extra cost to its prices, which is ultimately detrimental to consumers. Reports show that agribusiness in Geor-gia, where legislature has ap-proved a bill that welcomes E-Verify, is expressing concern over losing millions of dollars by leaving crops and fruits unharvested on farms. As Georgia has learned, workers with legal status don’t want to pick fruit for $11 per hour.

Sending undocumented workers home might sound like an expedient solution, but their exodus from the workforce will not save dis-mally unemployed Ameri-cans. An overview of Califor-nia farm labor from the Na-tional Agricultural Workers Survey sheds light on the fact that 57 percent of farm work-

ers in California were unau-thorized and 10 percent were U.S. citizens in 2004. A third of the workers were migrants and 86 percent of the migrant workers were international shuttle migrants. Given this evidence, the prediction that E-Verify helps save jobs has been so far off the mark that it’s embarrassing.

Reducing jobs for legal workers is not the only nega-tive effect of imposing the E-Verify program. Accord-ing to Bloomberg’s estimate, for example, businesses with fewer than 500 workers bear the greatest cost burden because the fixed costs are spread over fewer hires. In 2008, the Bloomberg report concluded that E-Verify cost small businesses an average of $127 to run each new hire query, compared with $63 for all firms — projected out-ward, Bloomberg calculated that those figures would be $147 and $73, respectively, in 2010.

Another concern of this program is the likely gov-ernment expansion. In order to enforce the law properly, state governments tend to spend more taxpayer money on establishing unelected bureaucrats to monitor pri-vate businesses intensively. As data compiled by Bloom-berg showed, it cost the gov-ernment $247 million to run E-Verify in 2010, and is pro-jected to increase in years to come after it has become a mandate. In a nutshell, tax-payers’ money will perhaps be lavishly spent by bureaucrats while private companies are weaned off the right to make their own business decisions. This is a negative-sum game.

Editor eats his own words

I arrived at the Techni-cian office giddy the day after the football

team’s victory over Maryland two weekends ago, know-

ing that the momentum f r o m t h e FSU upset

and then this surprise win would set the tone for the game against UNC-Chapel Hill.

Though I’m not the big-gest sports fan in the world, I was genuinely excited for a week’s worth of snarky com-mentary in preparation for a sixth Wolfpack victory, and

then a huge post-game story, or so I thought.

I learned a valuable lesson after N.C. State’s loss this weekend: If I am going to talk smack about Carolina and sarcastically jeer at its football program via Technician edi-torials, I better be prepared to eat my own words. To make sure I wouldn’t shrug off the humility of a loss, I made a deal with Viewpoint Editor Ahmed Amer that I would literally eat my own words.

Here I am, after that nail-biter of a game, owning up to what I said and admit-ting it was wrong. Though I

don’t retract my support for the University and its athlet-ics, I’ll acknowledge that the

sneering remarks I endorsed come with an unsavory after-taste of recycled newsprint

and water-soluble ink.Nor do I retract my com-

ments from last week. I enjoy healthy doses of rivalry and sticking it to UNC whenever State can, but as a true fan, sticking to my words, I rec-ognize I was wrong in my predictions, and in this case, UNC deserved the win. Being a fan doesn’t entail just root-ing for your team, but also taking losses on the chin and admitting you were wrong.

In the case of this week-end’s game, I was wrong, and with my post-game dose of humility and a mouthful of Technician, I hope all State

enthusiasts and students em-brace what it takes to be com-mitted but humble fans.

My words before the game were as bitter as the flavor of newsprint, but sometimes you have to take the bitter with the sweet. Talking about sweet, I’ll have to admit I’m looking forward to the glori-ous victories State will have this basketball season over the Tar Heels. And if State doesn’t make good on the up-coming basketball season, hit me up if you know of any cre-ative ways to eat newspaper.

TONY HANKERSON, JR.

Features

1. I think one of my biggest passions is increasing health-care for people who can’t a f ford it , who are ei-ther unem-ployed or are in oth-er difficult economic s i t uat ions . I went to Peru for a medical service trip over the summer and worked in medi-cal mobile clinics, and then in Ra-leigh, I volunteer at a free clinic on Blu-eridge and through MEDLIFE , I ’m

able to extend the goals of thinking global but acting

local.

2. Service is impor-tant for the litt le th ings. You can make a huge impact through an action like a toothbrush you give to a kid or letting the kids from the Boys and Girls Club Trick-or-Treat. These are small things

but seeing how these small things can make a big difference is to me the value of service.

3. [Being] a leader is providing the kind of change you want to

see in the world and also being able to clearly de-fine what your goals are so you can help others work on those goals with you. I also think being a leader is partially just be-ing a representative so in the case of being Leader of the Pack, the great thing about the scholar-ship is that you serve as a representative of all the great leaders we have on campus.

4. Marching band, N.C. State Chorale and plan-ning programs.

1. My passion is working with people and that connects with being an ed-ucator wanting to teach stu-dents, young people, and I know this is what my call-ing, to help young people m a k e t h e most of life and develop and learn and become produc-tive citizens.

2. My philosophy with service is that every opportunity to interact is an oppor-

tunity to impact. There are a lot of times when we think of service, we

think of big, glamor-ous, money-raising events that bring people together. In actuality, service can happen on a person-al basis and that’s where it should happen. I strive to help people each day through ev-ery interaction

whether it’s through Kappa Delta sorority, Agriculture and Ed-

ucation Club, Young Farmer and Ranchers or Teaching Fellows.

3. A leader is someone who demonstrates selfless ser-vice, a person of influence. Being a leader in college requires strength, open-mindedness. Leadership changes and it changes depending on the situ-ation I’m in. I’m adapt-able. However, by the end of the day, the one thing that doesn’t change is my character. A leader can be authentic and stay true to what his core values are.

4. Painting, going to Cook-Out, fishing, being outdoors

1. Both my parents are deaf and two of my siblings are deaf, so I’m pretty big on deaf culture and American Sign Language. I’m also re-ally passionate about educat-ing people. There’s a Ralph Waldo Emerson quote, “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” That’s something I’ve taken to heart since coming here.

2. Last spring, I went on the Alternative Spring Break trip to New Mexico. It really opened my eyes to how little I was socially aware about the issues that are going on in the world. Because of that trip, I applied to be an ASB leader. This year, I’ve been planning to go to New Orleans with the ASB team. We’ll be looking at issues like poverty, homeless-ness and the impact of hur-ricanes in the area. Service

makes us aware of what’s go-ing on in the world. I think the only way we can bring about change is if we educate ourselves, and service learn-ing encompasses that.

3. Being a leader means empowering others to be the best leader that they can be. I really take to heart listening to other people, building on their strengths and making sure they have what they need to be a leader. I don’t like to think of leadership as me being a leader who is above everyone else. It’s more like I’m a leader, you’re a leader in your own way and we work together to make things hap-pen.

4. Reading, swimming, ac-counting, being an RA and running.

1. [I’m] someone who un-derstands diversity and em-braces it. I don’t view diver-sity as a textbook of different heritages or nationalities, but as a diversity of opinion, of belief, of cultures, of per-spectives and viewpoints, of different backgrounds that shape who we are. I do that through my leadership at the Shelton Leadership Center as programming assistant and especially as a student living in Alexander Hall, where I’m exposed to so many people who are different from me.

2. I work a lot with the Caldwell Fellows and differ-ent endowments, working with leaders in our com-munity to fundraise to sup-port our students. [I’m also involved] in student govern-ment as the director of gov-ernmental relations. I served this summer by lobbying downtown with our cur-rent president Andy Walsh and speaking with different

legislatures about creating a budget and passing one that would be affordable to the citizens of North Carolina. Service is so much more than a seven letter word. It’s an action and it’s something I strive to do. Service is what makes a leader.

3. A leader is not defined by what they say, but what they do. A leader is di-verse not only in their life but also in their activities, someone who one day might be golfing with the chancel-lor, a week after building a house and then a week af-ter downtown talking to North Carolina senators. I’m involved in so many organizations and people say, “Wow. You have a lot on your plate. Don’t you ever get stressed?” My belief is that if your plate is too small, get a bigger plate.

4. Tennis, reading, going to the movies, anything politi-

cal, anything with econom-ics, swimming, hockey, stu-dent government, and nap-ping.

1. I have passion for doing well in whatever I do. I always strive for excellence because even if I don’t achieve excel-lence, I know I’ll be some-where great. I think one of my strengths is my work ethic. When you work hard and work hard with your team, then your team can do a better job.

2. I think it’s important to look at the many blessings we have received and to also look at those who are less for-tunate. I think it’s our civic duty and our moral obli-gation to give back simply because we are able. That’s something I try to incorpo-rate in the activities I’m in-volved in. I’m a co-chair for the Krispy Kreme Challenge. Many people don’t know that the committee works year-round to ensure the success

of the race. It’s a cause that’s a lot of fun and it unites the en-tire Wolfpack family behind something that’s far greater than any of us as individuals in the North Carolina Chil-dren’s Hospital.

3. A leader is a person of integrity and moral rectitude who stands firm for his values no matter what. A true leader will instill values in his team and then align the interests of their teammates into a common goal. A true leader empowers their team-mates, helps everyone go be-yond their comfort zone and to grow as a person.

4. Basketball, intramural sports, badminton, reading, bike riding and hanging out.

1. I have a back-ground with men-tal illness through family and friends so helping those with mental ill-nesses i s something I’m rea l ly passionate about. Whether i t ’s prov id i ng support, educa-tion and advo-cacy, especially [for] the campus communit y or something else. Even though dis-ability is under the diversity umbrella, it’s oftentimes over-

looked so a lot of attention and resources aren’t dedi-cated to it.

2. I feel like we have the respon-sibility to give back to our com-

munities whether it’s through vol-unteering and

giving up an hour of social time for the community or its promoting events for other groups that

are trying to help the community.

3. A leader is some-one who not only or-ganizes and promotes events but goes above

and beyond to serve as a role-model and is some-body who can create positive change by get-ting others involved in the community to get out and make an impact as well. It may just start with one but it has to have the potential to spread out.

4. Reading, basketball, hanging out, getting out-side in nice weather, work-ing out, designing and de-veloping websites

“I felt their goal was a little unfortunate, on a restart, and I thought we were on top of the game at that point. So I felt like that was a little bit against the run of play which is soccer,” head coach Kelly

The men’s and women’s cross-country teams hit the road for the Atlantic Coast Conference championships at Smithfield Plantation in Blacksburg, Va. Both teams came away with matching fourth-place finishes.

The men came in behind the first-place host Virginia Tech, Virginia and Florida State. On the women’s side, top-ranked Florida State took the conference crown, followed by Duke, Boston College and the Wolfpack.

Redshirt junior Andrew Colley came in third place overall in the men’s 8K race, crossing the finish line at 23:43.6, just six seconds short of the winner. Even more im-pressive was that Colley was running his first race of the season. Redshirt senior Matt Sonnenfeldt was State’s other top-10 finisher, coming in at 23:57.5, good for eighth place.

The Pack’s next-highest fin-isher was redshirt freshman Graham Crawford, who placed 14th at 24:16.9. Colley, Sonnenfeldt and Crawford all earned All-ACC honors for their efforts. It was the third straight year Colley has gar-nered such recognition.

S o p h o m o r e J o a n n a Thompson was State’s best women’s finisher, complet-ing the 6K race in 20:28.7. She was followed by redshirt junior Samantha Norman, who placed 12th at 20:45.6, with freshman Samantha George riding on Norman’s coattails at 20:46.8. George’s 13th-place finish was the top time for a freshman on the women’s course. Those three runners also earned All-ACC honors and Thompson took it home for the second straight season.

“I think our team did pretty well,” George said. “Having three girls in the top 13 was really awesome for us.”

The men had two more

runners finish in the top-25, with redshirt sophomore Michael Mansy finishing in 24:35.2, good to be 24th over-all. Redshirt senior Patrick Campbell was right behind him at 24:35.6. The men’s race consisted of 103 runners from across the conference.

Two more Wolfpack wom-en runners had top-30 fin-ishes in the 6K, as freshman Kaitlyn Kramer took 26th place at 21:15.5, while Tiay-onna Blackmon’s 21:19.2 was sufficient for 29th overall of our 98 total runners.

“I think we have the poten-tial to do really well for the rest of the season,” Thomp-son said. “I think we’re re-ally focused and we’re going to re-group and be ready for the next race.”

The teams were pleased with the fourth-place finish, though they couldn’t help but yearn for an even higher spot.

“We would have liked to finish in the top three,” George said. “We were three

points away. But overall it was a decent day for us.”

Cross-country is different from many major sports in that conference races are not the be-all and end-all when it comes to qualifying for the NCAA Championships.

“There’s a regional quali-fier, and the top teams make it to the national champion-ship,” George said.

The teams still have a cou-ple more races to improve their prospects before the season ends. The first of these races is the Three Stripes In-vitational Saturday, Nov. 3, at the WakeMed Cross-Country Course in Cary.

“It’s a regional meet so it has more teams than just the conference meet,” George said. “About 30 or so teams are competing in this race.”

The team is expecting some pretty tough competition next week in Cary.

“We definitely have a strong showing for our regional meet,” George said.

wanted it more,” Wolff said. “Right now, everybody is hurt from the loss. There isn’t too much we can say. We didn’t take advantage of our oppor-tunities.”

Adding insult to injury, Carolina, a team that will not be playing in the postseason because of NCAA sanctions, has most likely ended State’s chances of going to Charlotte for the ACC Championship

game. To win the Atlantic Division, State will have to win its last four games while Florida State loses one of its final two con-ference games. The Semi-noles play at Virginia Tech (4-4, 2-2 ACC) on Nov. 8 and then at Maryland (4-4, 2-2 ACC) on Nov. 17.

“We can still be in it, but obviously we need some help,” Glennon said. “We’re just going to move forward and get ready for Virginia now.”

Easier said than done.

INSIDE• Page 7: A recap of the men’s and

women’s cross country teams at the ACC Championships.

Sean FairholmDeputy Sports Editor

Following Giovani Bernard’s press conference in the Kenan Football Center, the star sophomore run-ning back sat down in a chair next to the elevator and reached down to feel his swollen left ankle. Still shaking from the adrenaline of a 74-yard punt return, which gave the Tar Heels their first victory over the Wolfpack since 2006, Bernard picked his head up and softly spoke with a sense of disbelief to no one in particular:

“I can’t believe that just happened ... that just happened.”

The 62,000 blue- and red-clad fans watching between the pines couldn’t believe it happened, either.

Using an 18-point fourth quarter to erase a 35-25 deficit, UNC-Chapel Hill (6-3, 3-2 ACC) broke the hearts of N.C. State (5-3, 2-2 ACC) Satur-day afternoon to end the 5-year drought against its biggest football rival. In a wide open game with sev-eral haunting similarities to State’s first ACC loss down at Miami, Ber-nard — a former high school team-mate of Phillip Dorsett, who caught the game-winning touchdown for the ‘Canes Sept. 29 — scampered down the right sideline and would not be caught until his teammates piled on top of him in front of the student section.

“What we wanted to do was just kick it high in the air and make him fair catch it,” State head coach Tom O’Brien said. “We had the wind be-

hind us and it probably took it, but you still have to cover and make a tackle.”

The game-deciding play was the finale to an odd afternoon ac-cented by gloomy skies and the un-usual sight of Kenan Stadium lights turned on for a 12:30 p.m. kickoff. After quickly falling behind 15-0, graduate student quarterback Mike Glennon went on to gash Carolina for a career-high 467 passing yards and five touchdown strikes. Al-though the numbers don’t suggest

it, Glennon and the offense missed repeated opportunities in the form of seven dropped passes, two inter-ceptions, a missed field goal by Nik-las Sade and a controversial fumble by senior Mario Carter that imme-diately led to seven points.

“I still figured we would go into overtime until that last play,” Glen-non said. “You can’t really worry about [the drops] ... you have to move onto the next play. Bryan [Un-derwood] had [drops] in the begin-ning of the game, but he responded.

I don’t really get on guys for that be-cause they know they messed up and they feel worse about it than I do.”

Perhaps the most costly series of events late in the game occurred when State ran three straight times to pick up an important first down and then opted to throw three con-secutive times despite the fact that Glennon had four incompletions and a sack on his last five pass at-tempts heading into the drive. With Carolina deciding to bring pressure for one of the first times on the af-

ternoon, State stuck with the down-field passing game and gave the ball back to Carolina with ample time and opportunity.

“We didn’t want to sit on a three-point lead and we had been suc-cessful throwing the ball the whole time,” O’Brien said. “We had a chance. We had Underwood run-ning wide open down the boundary and missed him.”

For Glennon and other seniors on the team, losing their final game against Chapel Hill is bitter, regard-less of how it happened or what deci-sions could have been made differ-ently. A part of that group forever finished with lining up across from their light blue rivals down I-40, senior safety Earl Wolff spoke can-didly about the loss.

“In that fourth quarter, [Carolina]

The men’s soccer team fell to UNC-Chapel Hill by a margin of 2-0 with two second half goals Fri-day. The game was fairly even in possession with the Heels holding the ball for the majority of the first half and N.C. State holding onto it more in the second half.

During the first half, UNC created more chances and forced State onto the back foot a few times prior to finding its rhythm. Carolina’s pass-ing was crisp in the first half and allowed it to retain much of the ball, but State’s disciplined defense kept a first half clean sheet.

The deadliest opportunity UNC had was when forward Andy Cra-ven successfully stole the ball from

sophomore defender Moss Jackson-Atogi and charged onto a one-on-one opportunity with junior goal-keeper Fabian Otte forcing him to make a save.

The danger wasn’t over as the ball nearly rolled in until redshirt sopho-more Sonny Mukungu slid and cleared it off the line. State’s oppor-tunities in the first half were more limited and restricted to defense as UNC enjoyed six corner kicks and five shots in the first period to State’s zero corners and three shots.

The second half hardly resembled the first as State pushed for a goal. The midfield duo of freshman Conor Agnew and senior Moritz Steidten started off the new half with much success as they dictated the tone in midfield and constructed the State offense. Steidten’s tough

tackling mooted a lot of the UNC advances and kept the run of play in the Wolfpack’s favor.

Junior forward Alex Martinez and redshirt sophomore Nazmi Albadawi coordinated more ef-ficiently up top, creating pass and go opportunities as well as utilizing the rest of their teammates to cre-ate time and space against UNC. In the second half, State had six corners and 12 shots to UNC’s zero corners and five shots. State’s improvement in the second half made it was bit-tersweet when UNC found the net twice to seal the victory.

The first opportunity came in the 64th minute as a Carolina free kick from outside of the area curled
