    After months of planning, prep-aration and practice, every chap-ter in the National Pan-HellenicCouncil will showcase their origi-nal stepping routines in the hopesof winning a $1000 prize for theirchapter.

    The annual Homecoming StepShow will be held Oct. 29 at 7 p.m.in Memorial Hall. Each of the fourfraternities and four sororities inthe NPHC are allowed 15 minutesto wow the judges and audience

    with their innovation, dedicationand synchronization.

    Chapters come up with theirown kind of theme, like rock androll, said Antoinette Lecky, NHPCco-social chair. Theyre often

    based off movies, usually whichev-er movies are coming out recently.

    You come up with a story line, aplot; chapters are supposed to becreative about it.

    In addition to the actual step-ping, Lecky said other studentgroups will perform during theshow. The Harmonyx a cappellagroup will open the show with an

    African American spiritual. TheKamikaze dance team will per-

    form during intermission. TheMisconception Dance Company

    will close the night before the judg-es decision is announced.

    Darius Love, the NHPC PublicityChair, said that the show will alsofeature DJ Bobby Drake, as well ashost and comedian Darren Brand.

    Its a big, fun celebration, withconcerts and performances out-side of the competition, Love said.Music definitely plays a big part ofit. The intermission is always prettycool to see what other organiza-tions are doing as well.

    Despite all the exhibition andguest performances, the show isstill a competition.

    Each groups stepping will bejudged by a panel consisting ofone member of each chapter anda head judge who is an unaffiliatedfaculty member.

    Love said that the step showdraws a large crowd of formerNPHC members.

    The step show is also a greatoutlet for reunions, for alumni tocome back for homecoming, Lovesaid. I feel like its a great bridge

    between alumni members of theNPHC at Chapel Hill and themembers in school right now. A lot

    of alumni from every organizationcome back to watch and supporttheir chapter.

    Lecky said that a wide variety ofpeople would enjoy the show.

    We expect it to be sold out,Lecky said. We have people that

    were anticipating this show beforewe even started to publicize ormake a Facebook event or put upposters. Friday was the first day westarted selling tickets and I heardthere was quite a good crowd outthere, so Im excited about that.

    Love said that although only onesorority and one fraternity will bedeclared winners, the main pur-pose of the show is to bring theGreek community together.

    The step show is a culminationof a lot of hard work and dedicationput in by each fraternity and soror-ity, Love said. It also brings Greekunity and a good Greek moral forthe NHPC as a whole because everyfraternity and sorority chapter per-forms at the step show, and watchesall the other chapters perform. Itsa healthy competition and bringsus together.

    Fall would be nothing withoutfootball and Halloween. This yearsHomecoming week is October 25through October 31, resulting inone jam-packed weekend full of

    madness and excitement.Halloween seems to have incor-

    porated itself into Homecoming.Even the Homecoming T-shirthas a haunted theme. With a fullschedule of activities and attrac-tions, students will have manyoptions to allocate their time.

    I think its a good thing that itsafter fall break and after the mid-terms, said freshman T. J. Tkacik.

    Sophia Chen believes thatHomecoming weekend will resultin too much activity for students.

    Some people will have to end upchoosing between one or the other,Chen said. She also mentions that

    because Halloween takes place ona Sunday night, people may havedifficulty getting back to classes onthe next day.

    Others, like freshman SeanCrews, disagree. Its weekendslike that that make college what itis, he said.

    Various student organizationshave been preparing Halloween-

    related events and activities. Oneof the most popular events is the

    weeklong Humans vs. Zombiesgame starting on October 25. Chenis one of the participants in thisgame. I got my Nerf Gun, Chensaid eagerly.

    On October 25 at 7 pm, there willbe a showing of the film Let theRight One In in the Student UnionCabaret. The Swedish film servedas the inspiration for the American

    film Let Me In. Halloween candywill be provided.

    On October 29, from noon to1:30 pm, Project Dinah will hostits third annual Halloween fashionshow. Project Dinah is a studentgroup committed to opposing actsof violence. Students will model onthe catwalk to declare their right topersonal space while wearing vari-ous costumes. The group will alsoprovide the opportunity for peopleto sign pledges against violence.

    Even the Morehead Planetarium

    has come up with Halloween-themed shows. On October 29 and30 at 8 pm, Ana Sayle, the adulteducator, will present Scare-olinaSkies, a Halloween-oriented ver-sion of the classic sky stories.

    M i c k e y J o S o r r e l l , t h ePlanetarium educator said, there

    will be some surprises, some excite-ment.

    Js visi s his by Alex hAmmerstaff writer

    After all the hard work that was

    put into bringing back the tradi-tion last year, there will not be aHomecoming parade this year.

    This event was an annual tradi-tion until 17 years ago. The UNCcommunity was brought togeth-er by campus group-sponsoredfloats.

    Former Student Body PresidentJasmin Jones was a huge advo-cate for the parade last year. She

    brought the tradition back to UNCas a means of uniting the Greekcommunity with the rest of the

    campus while raising money forcharity.Many people in the surrounding

    community were thrilled to havethe parade back. Meg McGurk,assistant director of the ChapelHill Downtown Partnership, saidfrom our aspect, from downtown,it was a great event and we wouldhave loved to be a part of it againthis year.

    McGurk went on to explain thatthere were no student groups thatseemed to have an interest in step-

    ping up and running the event likeJones did last year. It was reallyJasmine Jones passion that madethe event so successful last year,McGurk said. It was her vision.

    Tony Patterson, senior associ-ate director of student life andactivities, said its not somethingthat we will say will never happenagain, we just needed to feel thatits something students wanted.

    Patterson explained that afterthe event last year a survey was sent

    out to students and the responseswere not overwhelmingly support-ive. Of the students that respond-ed to the survey, only 20 percentattended the event. Patterson saidthe event was primarily attended

    by the town, not UNC students, and

    thats not what the event is for.Additionally, McGurk offered

    that since Homecoming also fallson the same weekend as Halloween,Public Safety and the Chapel HillPolice Department may have hadsome concerns with all that will begoing on in those couple of days.

    Between the football game andthe Halloween happenings, thereis already a lot on their plates that

    weekend. Even though every-one said they were in support of

    the idea, its not really fair to thepeople like Public Safety and thePolice Department in town to addthe parade in with the concert andgame already going on that week-end, Patterson added.

    Patterson mentioned that there

    are plans to have a GAA event opento all students. It will be in front ofthe bell tower on Saturday, October30, before the game. Free food anda concert will be featured. This pro-

    vides an alternative for studentsnot involved in Greek life, studentgovernment or any of the othergroups hosting exclusive home-coming pregame events.

    Pssi Pi will ig uiqu vi mpusby TARIQ LUTHUNstaff writer

    An exuberant melody will fill theair on Friday night in Carmichael

    Auditorium as Passion Pit takesthe stage. The electropop band

    with an indie feel will performas the feature of this years UNCHomecoming concert.

    The Homecoming board, whichconsists of the Carolina Athletic

    Association and the Carolina UnionActivities Board, is well on its wayto redemption following last yearsevent that many deemed a disap-pointment.

    We look for people on thecusp of being famous, looking atperformers who we knew werenot necessarily mainstream, saidKinsey Sullivan, CUAB musicchairwoman.

    Passion Pit is known for theirunique, eclectic style. While stu-dents are highly aware of their rep-utation, a sound like theirs has not

    been prominent in Chapel Hill.CAA Homecoming Chair Kate

    Hoolahan discussed the shift.Genres change every year,

    Hoolahan said. Its all based on

    what the students want to see andwhat we can secure.

    Many feel that the arrival ofPassion Pit will be a welcome devi-ation from the norm.

    However, the process of bring-ing them to UNC was not so sim-ple. The CAA and CUAB had todeal with a smaller budget than in

    years past.Hoolahan said that the CAA will

    only be able to put forth $5,000towards this years event, citing thedecreased funding from StudentGovernment.

    We had to look at who wasavailable and within our pricerange, Hoolahan said. We werereally lucky to get Passion Pit.

    While Passion Pit was on the boards short list of performers,the event truly came together

    when Pretty Polly Productions con-tacted CUAB about the CampusConsciousness Tour, a 12-campuscampaign and music tour. Thetour aims to motivate students to

    be environmentally active.Sullivan stated that the cost of

    getting Passion Pit to campus was$60,000.

    While CUAB worked hard tocontract Passion Pit, CAA reservedthe post-renovation Carmichael

    Auditorium for the event.Black Joe Lewis and the

    Honeybears and K.Flay will openfor Passion Pit in the first concertin the renewed auditorium.

    The move from the usualMemorial Hall is a change that wasinstrumental in bringing the act toChapel Hill.

    With Carmichael having over4000 seats, we are able to accessmore of the student body, whichallows us to have better funding,Sullivan said. We should be ableto offset our costs.

    As Homecoming Week kicksoff, there are only about 500 tick-ets left for a show that is primedto sell out.

    Bringing Passion Pit to ChapelHill will enhance the community

    because it appeals to a broad audi-ence, Sullivan said. Im confidentthat theyll put on a wonderful andmemorable show.

    lss gsiby Tori KoesTersstaff writerOvercrowding should not be

    out of the ordinary this weekend,despite the fact that Homecomingand Halloween will coincide.

    Agencies and businesses thathandle the increase of people inthe Chapel Hill area are not expect-ing larger numbers on Sunday asa result of Saturdays events. Theyare preparing as they normally

    would.The Siena Hotel and the

    Hampton Inn of Chapel Hill,two local hotels, have not had anincrease in bookings on Sundaynight because of the large numberon Saturday.

    A lot of people have askedseparately for Sunday night, said

    Anthony Carey, general managerof the Siena Hotel.

    It just seems to be a coincidencethat the hotel is crowded for bothevents, and not a result of alumni

    staying for the Halloween celebra-tion, he said.

    The Hampton Inn of Chapel Hillis almost sold out for Friday andSaturday, but has plenty of roomon Sunday, said sales managerBarbara Leedy.

    T h e Ch a p el Hi l l P o l iceDepartment is taking standardprecautions for Halloween crowdcontrol downtown and is actuallyexpecting less people than previous

    years because it falls on a Sunday,

    said Kevin Gunter, public informa-tion specialist for the department.

    Both the expected decreasein crowd size and the closing ofFranklin Street 30 minutes earlierthan last year will help with crowdcontrol problems.

    We hope for cooperation whenclearing the crowd at 11:30, Guntersaid.

    The UNC Department of PublicSafety is also performing its ordi-

    nary measures for Halloweencrowd control, said Randy Young,DPS information specialist.

    Young explained that the DPSmonitors the northwest sectionof campus, while the Chapel HillPolice maintain jurisdiction overdowntown.

    We really look after the safetyof individuals moving through thiscorridor and make sure folks havetheir sensibilities about them, bothentering and exiting, he said.

    The police department will still

    have an increase in officers work-ing Sunday night, despite the factthat they dont expect more thanthe estimated 50,000 people whocame downtown for Halloween last

    year, Gunter said.Every year can bring different

    types of issues, he said. We haveto be able to adapt to whatever this

    year may bring.

    The General Alumni Associationis hosting an Alumni MilestoneMixer at Top of the Hills new BackBar on Oct. 29 from 8 to 10 p.m.

    Laura Sheppard, coordina-tor of Homecoming and Affinity

    reunions, said that the General Alumni Association created theMilestone Mixer this year toencourage alumni to return forHomecoming.

    She said that the GeneralAlumni Association chose Top ofthe Hill because many graduateshave fond memories of going to therestaurant and would be interestedto see the new addition.

    Alumni are always coming backto campus and they want to seetheir old stomping grounds, said

    Sheppard. But they also want tosee whats new and whats changed.The new part of Top of the Hilloffers a great event space for agathering.

    Hallie Semmoms, Top of theHills event coordinator, said thatthe restaurants new bar will pro-

    vide a nice venue to mingle.Theyre going to see peo-

    ple theyre not even expecting,Semmoms said. Its going to be agreat event to get everybody ready

    to go and ready for Homecomingweekend.

    Alumni who attend the eventcan socialize with fellow graduates,listen to live music by DJ A-Minorand order from a wide selection ofdrinks, including specialty cock-tails at the cash bar. Semmomssaid that alumni can even ask for apiece of chalk to write about theirCarolina experience on the restau-rants walls.

    On Saturday, Oct. 30, alumni

    can continue dine together at theannual Bell Tower tailgate at noon.Carolina Barbeque of Garner willcater the event which is open to allalumni.

    Immediately after the game,current students and alumni areinvited to the Carolina Inn for apost-game party with a cash barand the band Spare Change.

    Alumni are encouraged to makeuse of the Tar Heel Kids and TeensCamps Friday and Saturday night.

    While the children visit sporting

    events and museums, their parentscan reconnect with old friends.Sheppard said that although

    some graduates use the reunionsas a business networking tool,the main emphasis of CarolinasHomecoming is purely social.Most of our events are about gath-ering with friends and celebrating

    who we are as Tar Heels.

    For the first time ever, theCarolina Athletic Association isdonating some of its T-shirt profitsto a campus organization.

    The recipient will come as nosurprise to students.

    Dance Marathon will receive$2 for every Homecoming T-shirtsold. They will cost 12 dollarseach, which is in line with previ-ous years.

    Cailtin Goforth, the CAA campus

    relations chair, said the donation isa result of a campaign promise byBrandon Finch, president of theCAA, to raise $10,000 for chari-table means throughout the year.

    The donation isnt the onlychange to the process this year.There will be a different sales pro-cess and a new look.

    Students were able to ordershirts in advance online on theGeneral Alumni Association web-site. If they missed the Oct. 15deadline, they can pick up a T-shirt

    in the Pit from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.during Homecoming week.

    Goforth said having an onlineordering process would give theorganization an accurate idea of

    demand for the shirts.Our first reason for creating

    online ordering was because wehad a lot of shirts left over in pre-

    vious years, Goforth said.We would end up selling a lot

    of leftover shirts at CTOPS for$5, she added. Even after that we

    would still end up donating someto local charities.

    The final change to this yearsT-shirts is the design. It will featurea ghoulish scene of a graveyard.The design also has bats flying and

    a moon in the background. Underthe graphic are the words: Bury

    William and Mary.Students have the option of

    purchasing a white, blue or blackshirt. The black shirt will also haveorange in its design to enhance theHalloween theme.

    Students have welcomed thenew ideas.

    I chose the black shirt becauseit was something different, saidfreshman Candace Carter. I havelots of blue, white and navy shirtsalready. Its nice to have somethingunique.

    His freshman year, Chase Joneswas diagnosed with a malignant braintumor. He received treatment at thechildrens unit at UNCs LinebergerComprehensive Care Center alongsideyoung children and even babies.

    Three years after recoveringfrom the brain tumor, Jones isrunning for Mr. UNC in hopes ofreaching out to more people andexpanding his charity project, UNCBaseBald for the Cure.

    He is trying to raise awareness forchildrens cancer and money for thechildren he once sat beside, he said.

    I just want to get the word out,Jones said.

    The first UNC BaseBald for theCure was on April 11, 2010. It wasorganized by Jones and his teammateson the varsity baseball team, and wasinspired by a similar event held in2007 to support a coachs son whohad leukemia, Jones said. The eventraised more than $6,000 for the pedi-atric oncology unit at UNC hospitals.

    The proceeds will cover expensesranging from gas money parents useto visit children at the hospital, tojuice boxes for the young patients,Jones said.

    Donors sponsored all of the players

    to shave their heads.It was an unbelievable event. I

    was so excited about it because I gotto see what an impact we could makeas students. We dont often get to seethat impact in a financial way, Jonessaid.

    Seth Baldwin, who is Jones cam-paign manager as well as his team-mate and roommate, shaved his headas part of the fundraiser.

    Its a big thing to shave your head.I felt awkward for a while, he said.

    Baldwin said he and Jones wouldlike to get other athletic teams to par-ticipate in the event. Jones said thiscould give the fundraiser a more last-ing presence on campus, and help itcontinue after he graduates.

    The funds that Im hoping to raisewould make it too big not to contin-ue, Jones said.

    Jones received the Eve CarsonScholarship this spring. He said hefeels his goal to raise awareness and

    money for his cause represents theideals of the scholarship.

    A part of the scholarship is tobring back Eve to this campus andthe university, Jones said. The bestway to represent her would be to havea call to action and a service projectthat involves as many people as pos-sible.

    Baldwin said that in addition tohaving an established service project,Jones would be a good representativeof the student body. He said that Jonesis committed to both the baseballteam and his studies in the BusinessSchool.

    Hes everything and more Id wantin any role: managerial, on or off thefield, said Mike Johnson, head coachfor UNC baseball.

    Hes athletic, charismatic, well-spoken; hes a very funny guy,Baldwin said. Hes smart, hes inB-school and he does great there.He comes out here every day andplays sports. Hes the most well-rounded kid I know.

    Ryan Graepel, a senior who is aformer teammate of Jones, said thathe also feels Jones is a good represen-tation of the student body.

    You just look at Chase every sin-gle day and hes an absolute inspira-tion, Graepel said.

    Brad Waters grew up with a lovefor swimming. Many children donot have this opportunity and he isdetermined to give them just that.

    Waters joined a summer swimleague when he was six. He has notstopped competing since. Duringraces and practices, he discovereda love for coaching and inspiringothers.

    Ive gotten a lot of enjoymentout of it, he said.

    If Waters becomes Mr. UNC,he plans to offer swim lessons forspecial needs and underprivileged

    youth. He will partner with localcommunity groups such as BigBrothers Big Sisters or the Carolina

    Swim Clinic.Waters hopes that linking his

    project to an established organi-zation will keep the opportunityavailable for years to come.

    Swimming promotes a healthylifestyle and fantastic exercise,

    Waters said. It gives kids confi-dence and happiness.

    The lessons would be easy toimplement. As a member of theUNC swim team, Waters has a lotof access to volunteers.

    Waters plans to target the les-

    sons to reflect each individuals ageand skill level.

    Its so neat to see how excitedthey get, Waters explained. Afew months ago, they were terri-fied, and now all they want to do iscannon ball into the pool and justsplash around.

    Waters adds, it is important totake it as seriously as possible, butalso with a grain of salt because

    they are just kids.These lessons are a rare oppor-

    tunity for some children in thearea. Brad notes, lower class kidsusually do not become competitiveswimmers simply because there isno opportunity for them to.

    Waters sees his service projectas a link. Its a cool way to bridgethe gap between Carolina and thecommunity around i t.

    The local community does somuch for UNC, and we should rec-ognize that by doing what we can

    to give back, he said.Waters is very invested in UNC.

    He a member of the Accordants, ana cappella group. He is a brotherof the Chi Psi fraternity. Mostimportantly, as an Admissions

    Ambassador, he introduces pro-spective students to the campus.

    Its easy for Brad to talk to peo-ple about Carolina and it allowshim to give back to his school, saidMatt Waters, Brads twin brotherand campaign manager.

    Everyone that talks to him willfeel welcomed, important, andneeded, which is a great quality ofhis, said Stephanie Vaughn, a fam-ily friend and supporter.

    Brad Waters easy-going per-sonality is reflected in his cam-

    paign strategy. Ill do some funny,quirky stuff to make people smileor laugh.

    His brother Matt said, all thecandidates are having a lot of funenjoying Carolina, Homecoming

    week and the fall.Though Waters is having fun,

    he cannot forget why he decided torun for Mr. UNC in the first place.

    Teaching swim lessons isrewarding and challenging, andthere are so many people who donot know how to swim.

    Students have the chance tochoose a role model for themselvesand the community on Friday,October 29.

    Students vote for one Mr. UNC

    and one Miss UNC on MyUNCunder Organizations in theStudent Life tab.

    Its important for students tovote because the point of the ser-vice project is to get the campuscommunity involved and to bet-ter UNC, said Kate Hoolahan,the Carolina Athletic AssociationHomecoming Chair.

    Im excited about voting becauseits a great opportunity for those

    who are running to publicize goodcauses, junior Maria Diaz said.

    Diaz claims she read about thecandidates platforms before decid-ing who to vote for in the prelimi-nary elections.

    Its important to be well-informed before you vote, Diazsaid.

    Hoolahan said the winners arepeople that will represent UNC, sostudents should choose someone

    who best represents them.Candidates applying for Mr.

    or Miss UNC must have: at leasta 2.5 GPA, two recommendation

    letters, 200 unique signatures andbe graduating in May, Hoolahansaid.

    Of the two recommendation let-ters, one must focus on leadershipand one on academics.

    Candidates must either write

    two pages about their service proj-ect or get a recommendation let-ter about the service he or she hascompleted. Although the serviceproject component was optionalthis year, all candidates have a ser-

    vice project.The candidate submits the appli-

    cation to the Board of Elections,who then decide if the candidatewill make it onto the ballot. Onceaccepted, each candidate mustattend an information sessionheld by the Board of Elections to

    find out about campaigning regu-lations.

    Originally, there were 15 femaleand 3 male candidates, said AndrewPhillips, Board of Elections chair.The top three females and males

    will be on the final ballot, so thewomen had a preliminary vote onOct. 15. The final ballot will be heldon Oct. 29. Both are plurality elec-tions.

    Once elected, Mr. and Miss UNCeach get $500 towards their serviceproject and a package with a class

    ring, basketball tickets, a crownand sash, Hoolahan said.

    The winning candidates alsohave a certain amount of time

    between getting elected and start-ing their service project.

    T h e t i t l e ch a n ged f r o m

    Homecoming King and Queen toMr. and Miss UNC to accompanythe change in the service projectaspect. Without a service projectrequirement, Mr. and Miss UNCare still expected to be role modelsfor students.

    The title is not the most impor-tant thing, Hoolahan said, but

    what is important is that the win-ners will be role models for currentand prospective students.

    Last year s queen, CarlyBrantmeyer, said she ran because

    of the service aspect.Desmond [Rowe] and I both

    ran to have a voice on campusabout service, Brantmeyer said.

    She is happy with how her ser-vice project, PhotoTEACH, turnedout. She started the program inGhana. It gained enough momen-tum and attention for her to bringthe program to the Cornwalliscommunity in Durham.

    Music drives Micah MochaCaldwell to get involved on cam-pus, but helping others motivateshim to volunteer on a larger scale.

    It may only take one personto impact a cause but having thehelp of thousands of others back-ing you is that much better, saidCaldwell.

    Caldwell hopes to use the title ofMr. UNC not for personal gain, butas a platform to raise awareness forpeople with disabilities.

    I thought running for homecoming king would be the best

    way possible to get the entire UNCcampus involved, Caldwell said.I wanted to make it a joint effort

    between myself and the UNC com-munity.

    For his service project, he plansto work with the Arc of OrangeCounty, a local organization thatadvocates for services for people

    with disabilities. Caldwell said hehas been working with the Arc ofOrange County for over two years

    with Pi Kappa Phi, his fraternity.He plans to invite families involved

    with the organization to participatein a week-long event to raise moneyfor the organization.

    The percentage of people withdisabilities is increasing, Caldwellsaid. A lot of people arent groomedto work with people with disabili-ties. I think thats a travesty andthats something thats needed.

    Tyler Aiken, Caldwells cam-paign manager, said the week will

    be busy. There will be wheelchairraces, kick ball tournaments, alecture on the R-word, meet andgreets and a discussion panel withdoctors. On the last day, Caldwellhas planned a benefit concertinvolving his musical connections,the Achordants, jazz bands andother local bands.

    During his disability awarenessweek, hes bringing so much infor-mation to students in the univer-sity that they wouldnt be regularlyexposed to, Aiken said.

    Caldwell said the weeklongevent is only a jump-start for howhe hopes to aid his cause. This

    summer, he will be working withPush America and his fraternity tohelp lead Journey of Hope, a cross-country bike ride with three routesfrom Washington or California to

    Washington, D.C.I chose to work with Arc of

    Orange County because I wantedto start locally in raising awarenessand then grow nationally, Caldwellsaid.

    Beyond service events, Aikensaid they are hoping to reach out topeople more personally rather thanshouting at them from the Pit.

    According to Victoria Welburn,a supporter and friend, being per-sonable is something that comeseasily to Caldwell.

    Micah is an open person. Heshonest and real. Hes doesnt try tofake anything to please people. Heis who he is and embraces peoplefor who they are, Welburn said,He has a genuine interest in peo-ple.

    Most would have expected meto do something with music, butI wanted to be unique in my plat-form and do something Im pas-sionate about, Caldwell said. Impassionate about music, very muchso, but Im also passionate aboutpeople with disabilities.

    Chelsea Phillips, a native ofHuntersville, NC, never wouldhave imagined that her two anda half week visit to South Africa

    would lead her to compete for 2010Miss UNC.

    Phillips met an Americanwoman in South Africa who wasactively involved in GrassrootSoccer, an organization whose pur-pose is to raise awareness about theHIV/AIDS epidemic. It seems they

    were destined to meet.After learning more information

    about the program, Phillips wasexcited to share this idea once shearrived back at home.

    I knew I wanted to bring AIDS

    awareness to this university and thesurrounding community, Phillipssaid. The option to run for MissUNC provided a perfect opportuni-ty for me to promote this charity.

    Phillips entered the electionwith the foundations for a poten-tial service project. As a senior

    business administration major,she believed she could realize herplan if she were elected. Her activeinvolvement on campus furtherqualified her to think big.

    Some of Phillips activities

    include President of the Order ofthe Bell Tower, Senior Class ChiefMarshall and student represen-tative for the General Alumni

    Association Board of Directors.Through all my roles on campus

    I am able to capitalize my leader-ship skills and with that experienceI feel like I can better represent allUNC students, she said.

    If Phillips is crowned Miss UNC,

    her award money will go directly tofunding her service project titledLose the Shoes, a three-on-three

    barefoot soccer tournament oncampus.

    This event will specifically raisefunds for Grassroots Soccer. Theprogram provides soccer starsand other leaders of the Africancommunity with tools to educate

    youth on HIV/AIDS prevention. Asestablished role models, the adultscan effectively influence childrenshealth decisions.

    I worked with Grassroot Soccerin the Dominican Republic, andknow first-hand that their HIV/

    AIDS education methods work,Gillian Reid said.

    Phillips campaign manager

    Christie Anthony says the mainstrategy that the promotion teamfocused on was to differentiateChelseas passion for her serviceproject from the other candidates.

    Phillips key to success wassimple: promoting the GrassrootSoccer organization and advocat-ing Vote for Chelsea.

    Her campaign strategy of less ismore worked. When it came timeto narrow the pool of female can-didates from 15 to three, Phillipsfound herself among the top.

    Chelsea hopes to maintain thesame momentum from the prelimi-nary election into the final votingprocess.

    Im doing this solely for my ser-vice project, Phillips said. Even ifI dont win, Ill know I was at leastsuccessful in putting my messageout there and still hope to followthrough with my final goal.

    Her friends acknowledge herpassion. I support Chelsea Phillips

    because she is supporting an amaz-ing cause, Reid said.

    You wont find any incriminatingFacebook statuses or unbecoming

    Tweets on Katie Rays social net-working profiles. If elected MissUNC, she wants to do her part tomake this true for the entire onlinecommunity.

    Ray, a senior journalism majorfrom Hillsborough, hopes to edu-cate area high school juniors andseniors on the importance of socialnetworking.

    She is designing a Social Media101 course for Orange CountySchools. The UNC chapter of thePublic Relations Student Society of

    America will help her accomplishthis goal.

    In our increasingly global com-munity, how people utilize these

    websites will be vital to the successof the next generation, Ray said.

    Her mission is much more thanteaching youth about negative situ-ations on Facebook.

    My goal is to teach high schoolstudents not only what not to puton these sites, but also how to

    brand themselves effectively, Raywent on to say.

    Ray most certainly embodiesthis ideal here at UNC. She has a

    hand in a number of campus orga-nizations. She is currently servingas the vice president of the ZetaTau Alpha, her sorority. She hasalso worked on the public relationsstaff of the Blue & White and thelayout staff of Kaleidoscope, UNCsfashion magazine.

    Although she has an interest in

    numerous branches of journalism,her true love is evident.

    Im really passionate aboutsocial media, Ray said, and ifelected, I want to use my positionto help people who may not knowas much about it.

    Ray is hoping that she can enactthe Social Media 101 class in allOrange County high schools withthe funds received from winningthe title and with the help of thePRSSA.

    She doesnt want her project to

    stop there, though. I want to startwith Orange County schools, but

    the opportunities with this projectare truly limitless. Its my intentionthat in time, the course will expandto counties and school systems all

    over the greater Chapel Hill area.Rays desire to give back to the

    surrounding area is not unwar-ranted. Her ties to the universityare far-reaching.

    I was born and raised rightdown the street, Ray said. Mylove for Carolina has grown eversince I learned to ride my bikeon the upper quad. It would be adefinite honor to represent UNCin this way.

    While studying abroad inEngland, Ray discovered how

    deeply connected she was to herhometown and university. She alsorealized how important it was togive back to that community.

    Tori Bliss, her sorority sister,confirmed Rays explanation.

    Katie is the personification ofthe love we all feel for this place,Bliss said. Her passion for theschool and her dedication to thecommunity make her a perfectcandidate.

    Perhaps Katie Ray is best sum-marized by her Twitter bio. Itreads, I will forever bleed CarolinaBlue.

    I am a prominent believer thatones voice is the best method ofchange, Miss UNC candidateMonica Doyle said. In that sense,

    to be the voice of Carolina wouldbe the greatest honor and one thatI would use to its fullest.

    If selected, Doyle plans to imple-ment a prom. It will serve teenagestudents who normally cannotattend regular proms due to physi-cal or mental limitations.

    Monica is very passionate abouthelping others and dancing, cam-paign manager Greta Mikus said.Her project is a combination ofthese passions.

    The event would give students

    the opportunity to wear promdresses, suits or tuxedos. Theycould have that special prom pho-tograph taken. The dance wouldalso provide students with anunparalleled event in their livesand a memory to treasure forever,Doyle added.

    My ultimate dream is for theprom to become an annual eventhosted by students of Carolinafrom all different student organi-zations, Doyle said.

    Ive never met someone so ded-

    icated to helping and motivatingothers, supporter Meredith Sainsaid. I know Monica will be fullycommitted to her project if electedMiss UNC.

    The Chapel Hill-Carrboro CitySchool System serves many stu-dents with varying disabilities andneeds. The grant awarded to MissUNC would allow Doyle to increasethis support.

    Doyle has already gainedapproval and support from theExceptional Children Facilitatorsof the Chapel Hill-Carrboro CitySchool System for her project.

    Doyle has tutored children everysemester, and she currently tutors atFrank Porter Graham ElementarySchool. Doyle is a senior math-ematics major from Wilkesboro,N.C. As a North Carolina TeachingFellow, she plans to become a high-school teacher.

    Doyle has held leadership posi-

    tions in various campus organiza-tions, including president of theCarolina Vibe Dance Team andtreasurer of FEMMES. She is alsoa fitness instructor for CarolinaCampus Recreation, a Phi Beta

    Chi member and a mentor for fel-low underclassmen.

    Doyle also volunteers with sever-al service organizations on campusincluding UNC Dance Marathon,Relay for Life and Habitat forHumanity. She is currently work-ing on starting a non-profit spon-sorship program to fund chil-drens education in the DominicanRepublic.

    If elected Miss UNC, I wouldcontinue to serve my time and ser-

    vices to UNCs charitable projects,

    Doyle said. But more important-ly, I would serve as someone whouplifts and inspires others to wantto be better for themselves and thecommunity.

    In high school, Doyle helpedplan a prom for students with dis-abilities.

    Seeing the smiles and overallenjoyment that the dance broughtthe students touched me deeplyand gave me the drive to continueserving teens in my college career,Doyle said.

    Advance registration is nowopen for the only event this yeartruly working fore the kids.

    The UNC Dance MarathonHomecoming Golf Classic is ring-ing in its fifth year as the only fulltournament that donates proceedsto the North Carolina ChildrensHospital.

    On Friday, October 29, Durhamspremiere golf club, The Preserveat Jordan Lake, will be filled with

    what Dance Marathon hopes will be a record number of partici-pants.

    Publicity Chair Rebecca Brennersaid the Dance Marathon teamsefforts to garner registrations wereextensive.

    Weve had just over 50 par-ticipants for the past few years,Brenner said. This year we are try-ing to register 100 participants.

    The team is hoping to registerthose players through a call-a-thonand by contacting the 80,000-per-son football listserv, said OliviaMurphy, the alumni relations chairfor Dance Marathon. They are alsoreaching out to area businesses andplayers from the past two years.

    Golfers will begin to tee off atnoon following a 10:30 a.m. reg-istration. Teams are organized ingroups of four, though groups withless are welcome to sign up andplay with others.

    The event will benefit DanceMarathons For The Kids cam-paign, which raises money to assistpatients and families at the NorthCarolina Childrens Hospital.

    At each of the courses eighteenholes, there will be a For the Kidsstory detailing Dance Marathonseffect on specific patients and fami-lies. We really want to make surethe tournament reflects our pas-sion for the patients and familiesat the N.C. Childrens Hospital,said Brenner.

    The stories are there to keepthe golfers connected to the cause,said Murphy. Knowing that theyare helping others makes the gamemore enjoyable.

    I really wanted more aboutDance Marathon out there, saidMurphy. There was nothing forthe golfers. There was nothingthere telling them what theyredoing, which is what the For TheKids stories are about.

    Participants range from familymembers of patients to studentsand alumni. Its sort of a mix,

    Brenner said. We want peoplefrom all walks of life.

    Murphy was optimistic aboutgetting the 100 participants signedup. Were targeting students main-ly through an interfraternity chal-lenge, she said.

    John Scotton, a senior businessmajor and member of the Chi Psifraternity, has participated in thepast and will play this year as well.His fraternity plans to enter two orthree golf teams, said Scotton.

    Scotton said the tournament is atreat for students because the golfcourse is highly ranked. Its a dif-ferent venue for students, he said.Its overall just a great time.

    Brenner agreed. Even peoplewho go there and dont golf ordont expect anything from it reallyenjoy it, she said. Its a great way

    to reach an audience that we mightnot reach through other events.The events benefits reach farther

    than just those in the ChildrensHospitalparticipants receiveeverything from shirts to meals toa chance to win a Porsche Boxster.The course also features prizes atall par-3 holes.

    Registration for the tournamentcosts $100 (of which $50 is tax-deductible), and student ticketscost $75.

    Included in the registration fee

    is a Chick-Fil-A lunch and a post-tournament dinner held at ThePreserves clubhouse at 6 p.m.

    Extra dinner tickets can be pur-chased separately for $15, whichincludes entry to the raffle.

    Though rumors about a patientattending the tournament were

    circulating, Brenner said the planfell through. We actually have notconfirmed a child from the hospi-tal coming to the tournament, shesaid. Hopefully in future years wecan get a patient or family lined upto come to the tournament.

    Proceeds from the golf tour-nament supplement DanceMarathons yearlong fundraisingefforts. The total amount raisedis kept tightly guarded until themuch anticipated reveal at DanceMarathon itself.

    Murphy said the main goal thisyear is numbers, both in partici-pants and money raised.

    I hope for numbers in sponsor-ships and golfers and students, shesaid. The more people there are,the more money were raising forthe cause and the more exposureDance Marathon gets.

    If it could not rain, that wouldbe great too, she said.
