College statesrobberynot trueBy Peace Times Staff

The armed robbery of a resident assistant reported in September never really happened, announced Peace Pro-vost Debbie Cottrell in a campus e-mail last week.

“Earlier this month, after an exhaus-tive investigation by the Peace College Security force and State Capitol Police, the case was closed,” Cottrell said. “The report was determined to be unfounded, meaning a crime was reported that did not occur.”

On September 25th, 2009, a Peace College resident assistant reported that a man with a gun confronted her out-side the north side door of Davidson Residence Hall near Franklin and Blount streets shortly after midnight as she was making her rounds. The student said the man had robbed her of her jewelry and cell phone.

She had described the suspect as a black male about 6’1” tall, with short hair and wearing black shorts and a white T-shirt.

“While we are saddened and con-cerned that a student would fabricate such a report, we remain committed to a safe and secure campus,” Cottrell said.

Cottrell called the incident a “stu-dent conduct violation” and said “ap-propriate steps” have been taken to address the situation.

As a result of the reported crime, the College had installed security cameras on the back of the campus for the Belk, Ross and Davidson parking lot and on the south side of New Residence Hall. New card readers were also installed on some buildings.

Cottrell says that the alleged armed robbery will not be put on the College’s official crime record, because law en-forcement has determined the incident never happened.

Cyber Love: You met him where?By Jessica AdamsTimes Staff Writer

Before movies like “You’ve Got Mail” and “Must Love Dogs,” many thought Internet dating was a somewhat sketchy, even taboo, subject. However, these days things are much different.

The Pew Internet and American Life Project found that “an estimated three million Internet users have clicked their way into love.”

Websites like Match.com, eHar-mony.com and Chemistry.com lend a helping hand to singles looking for their soulmate.

“Internet dating sites could be mis-leading,” said Peace College junio One-lia Pokou. “But if that’s what you have to do to find love, then it’s whatever.”

Many college students between the ages 18-24 frown upon the online dat-ing experience. Match.com reports that only 12 percent of Match.com users are within this age range.

When in college, many students take the “face-to-face” route when approach-ing people for the first time.

At this point in life, some students say it is easier to do because of the col-lege experience, student organizations, parties and hangout spots.

Peace Senior Neshon Fredlaw be-lieves, “dating web sites are okay, but overrated. I guess it’s good for older in-dividuals who really are having trouble with dating or just haven’t found the right one yet.”

Pokou says, “If things got that bad, then I would be on eHarmony.”

Many online dating sites promote marriage, and not every college stu-dents is looking for such a commitment right now.

Fredlaw says, “I wouldn’t use one unless I was desperate and at an older age. I believe you can meet people pub-licly by chance of fate or destiny…I’m

YouTube in classroomsProfessors use the Internet site to their advantage

North Carolina State University was looking for participants for an event called Campus MovieFest. East Carolina University has an online adult learning program that the school is calling “the real option for adult learners.” Cisco CEO John Chambers sent a message of appreciation to the Fuquay Community after the first successful TelePresence dialogue held on February 5th, 2010.

Where did all this information come from?

YouTube, of course. Founded in February 2005, You-

Tube now acts as a tool for schools to highlight what they have to offer pro-spective students by showing what they are currently accomplishing. Within the sub-category called “YouTube EDU,” under the Education category, are over 100 school-created channels that high-

light different events and lectures at each school. But the reach of YouTube into the realm of education does not stop there.

Looking further into the educa-tional use of the web site, YouTube has transformed itself from a simple video-sharing web site into something new for the academic world to use within the classrooms to enhance learning.

“It is a rich resource,” says Dr. Tere-sa Holder, professor of communication at Peace College. “It is nice to be able to use the actual footage of a past event. YouTube allows for broadcast footage to be preserved for later use.”

Holder encourages the use of the video-sharing site in her Introduc-tion to Public Relations class for their presentations.

Social networking web sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are attracting a younger crowd.

Although the purpose of these sites is for “social networking,” not making marriage or dating matches, the sites do not discourage practice. Users are free to communicate however they would like.

Pokou says, “On internet dating sites, you know that person is look-ing for love whereas on Facebook or MySpace, they could be look-ing for something less serious -- a booty-call [laughs].”

presentation that goes to a video on YouTube is not out-of-place as many students refer to the site for video clips on their topic.

“I’ve used YouTube as a resource for many of my presentations,” says Angela Diaz, a sophomore at Peace Col-lege. “It helps me to learn more about my topic and to have something visual for the class so they can understand the topic better also.”

In the past five years, YouTube has become a way for students to learn in ways many never thought possible and as the web site continues to advance so will the opportunities for a better edu-cational experience.

Since May 20th, 2009, Hillsborough Street has been in the process of an enor-mous renovation. The city of Raleigh has a 9.92 million dollar contract with Ham-lett Associates to convert Hillsborough Street into a two lane road divided by a median. Round-a-bouts are currently under construction as well as on street parking and new LED lighting.

Many North Carolina State Uni-versity, Meredith College and Peace College students have been suffering the consequences of having one of their most highly traveled roads cut down into one lane.

NCSU Farm House Fraternity President, Wesley Hancock said, “I have to plan for traffic with every event we hold as well as just daily. I leave for

class 15 minutes early to account for the hold up.”

Students like Hancock, are not the only ones having to re-adjust to the new climate alone the street, many restaurants and stores have been suffering because many citizens do not want to deal with the hassle of parking and traffic.

“I am hoping that the construction will be beneficial in the long run, but the conditions of the road right now are dangerous and annoying,” said Meredith College student Jenna Cameron.

Students along with business owners are ready for the estimated date of completion, September 2010, to hurry up and get here.

“I can’t wait for the day when I can drive down Pullen Road and not nearly hit an orange street cone,” said Peace College student Chelsea Biggs.

Renovation on Hillsborough St.

What is St. Patrick’s Day?By Tina WilsonTimes Staff Writer

As we all know, on St. Patrick’s Day we wear green. But have you ever stopped and wondered why?

“Saint Patrick’s Day is not really important to me,” said Peace College student Ambria Cotton. “All I really know is that you wear green, I never re-ally learned about the significance of that day and what it means to history.”

History tells us that there was a man named St. Patrick, who got kidnapped because of his family’s estate. His kidnappers transported him to Ireland where he spent six years of his life in captivity.

While in captivity, Patrick turned to Christianity. Later he escaped because he heard the voice of God saying “It is time to leave Ireland.”

After walking 200 miles, he finally got to Britain. One night an angel came to him and told him to return to Ireland as a missionary.

Patrick listened to the voice of God

and the angel, he later went and furthered his education and became a priest. He is credited for bringing Christianity to Ireland.

St. Patrick died in the fifth century. From then on the Irish have celebrated his death every year on March 17th.

This celebration season is lent, and the Irish would traditionally attend church and have festivities afterwards.

Many Americans wouldn’t know that the Untied States held the first St. Patrick’s Day parade. During the mid-nineteenth century most of the Irish immigrants came to America to escape starvation. When they arrived Americans portrayed the Irish in cartoons as drunk, violent monkeys.

The Irish soon began to realize that their great number endowed them with political powers.

They came together and organized their voting block, known as the “green machine.” Suddenly, annual St. Patrick’s day parades became a show of strengths for Irish Americans.

One night, Peace College senior Aly-sia McLaurin was driving down Western Boulevard to pick up a friend.

While approaching her friend’s neighborhood, McLaurin sent her a text to come outside. As she pressed “send,” she looked back up and immediately had to swerve the car in order to avoid hitting a man walking his dog.

“I just put my phone away until I got into her driveway,” McLaurin said. “I could barely breathe.”

Last summer, North Carolina passed a law banning drivers from texting.

However, that does not seem to be stopping the practice. Teens appear to be particularly at risk.

A recent Nielsen survey found that the average U.S. teen with a mobile phone sends or receives and average of 2,899 text messages a month.

Eve Kieta, a 20-year-old junior at North Carolina A&T State University,

said despite the new law, continues to text and drive.

“I’m a pro behind the wheel while texting,” Kieta said. “The government should give out text-drive licenses.” Ki-eta said she believes if drivers can pass a texting and driving test, they should not be penalized.

Studies have shown that sending text messages while driving can impair driv-ers more than drinking and driving.

Experts say texting or reading mes-sages on your phone can slow a driver’s reaction time.

Peace College junior Alexis Giron says she does not text and drive.

“I just look at who’s calling me and text them back when I get to where I am going,” she said.

Lawmakers hope more drivers take Giron’s approach. Drivers caught texting while driving in North Carolina face a fine of $100 plus court fees.

The Peace College Theatre program has established a well-earned respect from the local theatre community.

Led by Dr. Kenny Gannon for the past 15 years, the program has brought in many prominent actors and actresses to play roles in past productions.

In addition, they have earned spots in numerous N&O and Independent Week-ly’s top production of the year polls.

“Once again, Gannon had exploded the stereotype of small college theater as an inferior showcase,” News and Observer’s Roy Dicks commented in his review of a past production.

Looking at everything the theatre program here at Peace has accom-plished over the years, many people have wondered why a theatre degree is not offered.

Dr. Scott McElreath, a current phi-losophy professor at Peace, says he couldn’t agree more, “Compared to other programs in the area, we have an amazing theatre facility and extremely dedicated faculty and staff that already offer courses in a variety of areas in theatre...why not have a theatre major at Peace College?”

We discussed the various Peace grad-uates who went on to attend prominent art schools and even obtain professional careers in theatre, film and television.

“Think about the number of students that have turned away or transferred from Peace simply because we did not offer a theatre major,” McElreath said.

In the 2010 fall semester, the new

theatre arts B.A. will be implemented and with a little time Peace College will officially hand out it’s first degree.

There is a lot of excitement in the Peace community and many people who are anxiously waiting to get this program underway.

“We are pleased that our stu-dents who excel in theatre will have the option of pursuing a degree in the field,” said Peace College Presi-dent, Laura Bingham.

A major in theatre arts prepares stu-

dents to pursue professional goals as artist and educators. They can obtain jobs as teachers, actors, directors, playwrights, critics, set designers and managers.

The theatre major program will of-fer two different tracks: an acting and a technical track.

Students in this program will still have to complete the Liberal Arts educa-tion, also known as the Peace Passport, that all Peace students are required to complete for graduation.

The remaining course credits will be

evenly divided between classroom lecture and theatre performance.

The development of artistic skills, visits to professional theatre compa-nies, opportunities for internships, as well as chances to interact with various theatre professionals through campus

visits enhances a students theatre education.

Dr. Gannon has already made a significant impact on Peace College theatre and will continue to do so by leading the new degree program.

“Participation in drama provides college students opportunities to ex-plore and celebrate diverse cultures, helps them to learn to live and work with others and empowers them as participants in art,” Gannon said. “Extending Peace College’s theatre program into a major will provide scholarly, professional and practical training in drama and build on stu-dents’ liberal arts educations.”

Support for establishment of the theatre program includes a grant from the Mary Duke Biddle Foundation.

Scholarships are also being made available for students who major in theatre at Peace.

Interested students should contact Kenny Gannon to arrange an audition and interview.

Pacer Tennis and Softball teams in full swingBy LeAnne HorneTimes Staff Writer

As the spring months start rolling around, spring athletes are gearing up for their season. Tennis and softball practices are now underway, with the players full of expectations.

The tennis team starts off under a new head coach, Kathy Jacobs, a 1978 alumna of Peace College.

“Coach Jacobs has us working hard day in and day out,” says Brittany Lynn, a senior on the Peace College tennis team.

Lynn also participated in soccer this past season but wasn’t ready to give up college athletics so, she decided to join the tennis team.

Pacer’s tennis team has two former members of the Peace Soccer team, Haley Bright and Brittany Lynn. Lynn, who also played basketball for 4 seasons, is one of three women in the history of Peace College to play three sports. Sophomore, Kristen Stranes, is the only returning member from the 2009 team.

New comer Bright and veteran Stranes are paired up at the number one doubles position. Bright and Stranes recorded a loss against Salem College on Friday, February 26, as their first collegiate match together. The number

two team, Naomi King and Whitney McMillan, also suffered a loss against Salem on Friday.

Softball season is also underway with practices and games, fighting the cold weather.

“We are very excited about this season. Practices have been cold but the energy has been high,” says Candy McDanel, second year outfielder for the Peace softball team.

The Pacer softball team hosted the Peace College Triangle Combat Classic the weekend of February 26-28. The Pac-ers came out on top as they were named tournament champions after defeating Agnes Scott, 10-2.

The Pacers opened with a 5-3 win over Sweet Briar College and then easily defeated Agnes Scott in the champion-ship game on Sunday. Ashley Stansbury, Kendra Yearick and Melissa Williams were named on the all-tournament for the Pacers. Shortstop, Morgan Weath-ington was also a stand out during the tournament, hitting 2-4 from the plate, including two RBI.

The Pacers are scheduled to play in the Virginia Beach Blast this weekend and will be entering the tournament with a 6-4 record.

Underground hip-hop hits Raleigh music scene

Taking a closer look at Women’s History Month

By Samantha StanyonTimes Staff Writer

As the capital of our state, Raleigh acts as a home for different artists to come together and share their talent with North Carolinians from all over.

Just as museums and local festivals help spread the love of art, local music venues have been embracing a number of more alternative genres that are start-ing to gain interest.

One genre that particularly appeals to the college crowd: underground hip hop.

“Discovering the Pandora music genome project saved my musical life,” said Jessica Pridgen, a student at North Carolina State University. “It has opened up I guess Pandora’s Box of great hip-hop artists who deserve but don’t get mainstream play.”

These artists are well known through-out their scene, thanks to blogs and web sites promoting their music, and now thanks to their live performances

around the Raleigh area.“We don’t do a lot with local acts

surprisingly, but when we have touring acts such as Bus driver, Cage, Eyedea & Abilities, etc, those shows do decently,”

said Glenn Boothe, the owner of Local 506 in Chapel Hill. “Not huge, but defi-nitely respectable.”

While venues such as Local 506 and Cat’s Cradle are better known, more intimate settings can be found right in our backyard.

“I love when shows come to Ruckus Pizza (Mission Valley shopping center) because it’s such an intimate setting and you can feel the vibe from every spot in that place,” said Pridgen.

“The Pour House is another new favorite of mine because there’s always a random assortment of people who just want to hear good music, and I like that.”

March is Women’s History Month, a month set aside for the celebration of the achievements and contributions women have made to society.

The United States is the only country that dedicates an en-tire month to the rec-ognition of women.

Great women, Su-san B. Anthony, So-journer Truth, Sandra Day O’Connor, and Eleanor Roosevelt, have pioneered in sev-eral areas that benefit our everyday life.

With the efforts of these women and many more, we have broken many stereo-types and barriers.

Women have always been consid-ered to be inferior to men. Traditional views on society believe that a woman’s occupation is motherhood.

Many believed that a woman’s place was in the home, cooking, cleaning, and caring for the children.

Formal education, historically, was

meant for boys. Compared to their male counterparts, women were to suffer and be silent.

They could not speak up for their rights. Women were treated like second class citizens. They could not vote or own property.

Times have cer-tainly changed.

Today women are CEO’s of ma-jor corporations, governors, doctors, lawyers, astronauts, and everything in between. We are strong, nurturing, zealous and hard-working. We are women!

According to the Census, 31 per-cent of women ages

25 to 29 years had earned a bachelor’s degree or higher in 2003, while only 26 percent of men in the same age range had done the same.

Eighty-eight percent of young wom-en and 85 percent of young men had completed high school.

The last year that young women and

“Discovering the Pandora music genome project

saved my musical life.”

“With the efforts of these women and many more, we have broken many stereotypes and barriers.”

men had equal rates of high school and college attainment was 1995.

The estimated work-life earnings of women with a professional degree (i.e., medical, law, dental or veterinarian) who work full time, year-round is $2.9 million.

For women, like men, more educa-tion means higher career earnings.

It is estimated that women with-out a high school diploma would earn

$700,000 during their work lives, in-creasing to $1 million if they had a high school diploma and $1.6 million if they had a bachelor’s degree.

Laurel Thatcher Ulrich once said, “Well behaved women rarely make history.”

Ask yourself this Women’s History Month: How are you making history?

Artspace artist moves from film into digital world

Got a question?: The Advice Diva is in the houseMy friend always copies me. When

I buy a new jacket, she buys the same one. When I got a new phone, she got the same one (even the same case) It’s driving me crazy! What do I do?

Well, well, well. This is a classic case of the “little sisters syndrome.”

Your friend obviously likes your style, and you must be a trendsetter in her eyes.

Why don’t you take her out to lunch one weekend (your treat) and have a casual conversation. In the midst of that convo, bring up how you have been no-ticing that she has been embracing your own personal style and it is starting to bother you.

On the bright side, this girl probably buys the same things you buy so she won’t have to borrow things from you ALL THE TIME. After all, no one likes someone borrowing all of her stuff.

It’s quite clear that she idolizes you, and you shuold be proud that someone is actually noticing.

That is all.

Artspace artist, Alison Overton, has been photographing since 1980, but recently she departed from her character-istic hand-tinted film photographs into the world of digital photography.

Overton’s new body of work is com-posed of childhood toys and other items she found while cleaning out her parents’ home in Vance County, NC.

“I wanted to capture really bright, childhood memories,” said Overton. “First, I started to take still life pictures with the Rolleicord and it worked okay but not great.”

She then tried taking the same shots with her 5-megapixel point-and-shoot camera.

“I’ve never done anything this easy,” she said. “I didn’t realize I could blow [the photographs] up so large without pixilation...After that, the floodgates opened. I didn’t question it anymore.”

Overton is taking a break from the darkroom and the hand-tinted prints.

However, for those who think that film photography is a thing of the past, think again.

Peace College’s director of com-munication and former journalist, Mike Hobbs, said, “What people don’t know is that many photographers are going back to film.”

Hobbs explained that film still gets more resolution. Often times, landscape

photographs seen in magazines are cap-tured with film.

“Film isn’t dead,” stated Hobbs. Furthermore, Overton and Hobbs

both agree that producing great works of photography is not about one’s camera or equipment.

“It’s not the camera—ever,” ex-

plained Overton. “To me, the most inter-esting part of making art is the thinking—the concept.”

Overton has been a member of the Artspace community since 1998 and has had a studio in the building since 2006.

“We are excited to support Alison Overton and her new body of work,” said

Mary Poole, Artspace’s executive direc-tor. “It is through exhibitions like Secret Hours II that Artspace truly achieves its mission of inspiring creative energy and supporting artists in their efforts to explore new directions.”

“Working at Artspace is really re-warding because of getting to meet so many nice people who come into my stu-dio,” said Overton. “They ask questions and make comments that give me inter-esting feedback, and I learn from them as they, hopefully, learn from me.”

There will be an opening reception for Overton’s exhibition of Secret Hours II at Artspace on March 5 from 6-10 p.m. in conjunction with the First Friday Gallery Walk.

The First Friday Gallery Walk is a monthly event that offers the Raleigh community an evening out filled with art exhibitions, live music and refresh-ments.

“Artspace brings the creative process to life through a dynamic environment of professional artist studios, exhibitions by regional, national and international art-ists, and inspiring and engaging education and community outreach programming,” said Poole.

Artspace artist Alison Overton uses childhood toys found while cleaning out her parent’s home in her work.

My best friend’s boyfriend is cheat-ing on her. Lots of us know it, but we haven’t said anything. Should we?

OK. BEST FRIEND are the key words here.

You and this girl have been through the storm, which is the reason she has been deemed you “best friend.”

She has the right to know what’s going on. But, my advice to you is to get proof before you say anything.

This girl is obviously in love and she is blinded by his lies of forever and always, blah blah blah. So you have to have proof, or you might risk your friendship.

This girl could choose the love of a man over her best friend. Risky, risky business.

Get the proof and spill the beans. She is like your sister for crying out loud. SPARE HER HEART.
