SGA plans aid for local homeless SHANEE SIMHONI

ssimhoni@unca.edu Political Correspondent

Keith Knox, executive of multicultural affairs in SGA, said he wants to bring a campaign to Asheville that aids the homeless. “It’s a pop-up store,” Knox said. “You set these little things up that are like cardboard pieces and you slide blankets and socks through it.” Knox said the structures would be placed in the downtown area and provide the homeless with necessities while still allowing them to keep their pride. “I know some people who are just so full of pride, even though you may be in a certain situation, you really can’t go to a homeless shelter and say, ‘Can I get this from you?’ so this is a little easier for them,” Knox said. James Whalen, student body president, said SGA plans to combine Think Before You Drink week with their sexual assault prevention campaign this week. “We’re really going to really push that next week and in the weeks following, as pledging your support being the first step on ways that students can

get involved in stopping sexual assault,” Whalen said. “We need to really think about what consent means.” SGA worked with SpeakUP and other student organizations on various activities, including a task force meeting and a consensual workshop. Early voting begins on Thursday and will be open for approximately two weeks. Whalen said he and Eric Boyce are meeting to discuss plans for voting locations for early voting and on Election Day. Harper Spires said she and Gardner Goodall, co-executives of sustainability, had an informal meeting on Friday with members of the Student Environmental Center and Leigh Whittaker, senior vice present of the UNC Association of Student Governments, on the beginnings of coal divestment campaign in Asheville. Spires also said she and Goodall are beginning plans for the spring Greenfest. Sen. Charlie White, chair of the student affairs committee, said the gender neutral bathroom maps will be printed this week.

Disability Week challenges students VALERIE McMURRAY vrmcmurr@unca.edu Asst. News Editor

The Office of Academic Accessibility offered students and faculty opportunities to challenge their perspectives around living with disability during Disability Awareness Week last Monday - Friday. “When you ask people with disabilities what the number one obstacle in their life is, it’s the attitudes and perceptions of other people,” said Joshua Kaufman, UNC Asheville’s assistant director of disability and learning support. “What always surprises me — or that I find interesting or odd — is that in the general population, there’s still some stigma attached to disability,” Kaufman said. “When we look at the course of the average person’s lifetime, about 80 percent of

us will experience disability either personally or in our nuclear family — meaning our parents, our siblings or our children. Eighty percent — that seems pretty mainstream for there still to be a stigma associated with disability.” On Oct. 13, Regan Brashear, producer and filmmaker of Fixed, presented the award-winning documentary, released last year, exploring the social impact and ethical dimensions of human enhancement technology. Fixed not only features disability scholars, disabled-rights advocates and artists with disabilities, but also bionics engineers, a futurist and a transhumanist. Each person delivers a perspective based on their own experience with disability. She said she intended for the film to raise

Officials combat cyber abuse DECLAN LOCKHEED dlockhee@unca.edu Contributor

With the increase of social media and cyber abuse reports, UNC Asheville aims to crack down on cyber abuse without infringing upon the rights of the student. “There are two fundamental issues that we have to balance out. One is freedom of speech and the freedom of expression, and as an administration I would never want to take that away from students,” said Jill Moffitt, assistant vice chancellor of student life. Moffitt said she casual-

ly follows popular UNCA Facebook pages, such as UNCA Crushes and Overheard, but there is no official administration presence. “Yes, I go and look on those sites. Again, I do that for the same reason I would go to Yik Yak, it’s really about what are the students saying,” she said. Moffitt said she maintains this presence in order to protect students and because she has received many verbal complaints about abuse. “It’s common. It’s happened enough times that I have a procedure. In the past year, we have had four come and make a verbal

complaint directly to me, that I am aware of,” she said. Moffitt said she does not believe the increase of Facebook groups and social media apps increase cyberstalking. “It definitely increases reporting of cyberstalking. Now we are hyper aware that these exist, and we are hyper aware on how they interface with each other. So I definitely think we see an increase of reports. I don’t necessarily think that means we had an increase of behavior. Sexual assaults are underreported. I think cyberstalking was underreported until sites

like this,” Moffit said. School administration will only intervene with students’ posts if they feel there could be serious consequences, Moffitt said. “It’s when they are not helpful. They are discriminatory. They’re biased. They’re hateful. They disclose a crime. That’s when we have to sit there and make that balance. I ask students to behave responsibly on these sites there’s a difference about complaining about the food in the café and completely annihilating someone through an anonymous post,” Moffitt said.

Residence halls help students, officials say JUNE BUNCH

Living on campus helps new students access resources such as events and programs, according to UNC Asheville officials. “You’re on your own, probably for the first time,” said Alison Heston, a humanities professor at UNCA. “It’s scary and people feel pretty vulnerable, but there are resources in the university and community that are always available, ego aside, willing to avail themselves.” Heston said UNCA students learn to be critical citizens by engaging in college organizations. Clubs and organized events are posted on calendars within residential halls, and Heston said students can use these opportunities to put their critical thinking to use within the university

Derbyshire, 22, a former UNCA resident assistant. “You can literally leave your door open and somebody will walk by and say, ‘What’s up?’” Derbyshire said.

Only in college can someone find such a wide variety of people sharing such similar experiences, Derbyshire said. According to him, RAs give support to the many students in their hall, especially when they are willing to take worthwhile risks. “There’s lots of room for mistakes and you learn tons by making them,” Heston said. “If you stick to the dorms and always the people you used to know, you stunt your willingness to grow.” Heston said it takes risks to successfully immerse into the new world of college. “You need to accept consequences with those risks. Accept that you may be disappointed, that you may be overwhelmed or you may find that you’re not very good at this thing you

Literature club boasts more members, new goals CALLIE JENNINGS cjenning@unca.edu Staff Writer

Tucked away in Karpen Hall surrounded by comfy couches, throw rugs and numerous books, UNC Asheville’s literature club holds their meetings. Between organizing trips, discussing pop culture, or sharing their appreciation for literature, they aren’t just a book club, according to club officers. “The main overreaching goal is to just share literature and appreciate it with other people. Along the way we can veer off into other realms of entertainment, like television and film or pop culture in general, but the goal is to appreciate literature,” said Maddy McDonald, 19-year-old sophomore and co-president of literature club. The casual atmosphere and the opportunity to look at readings from an academic standpoint are some things that draw students

into joining, according to Heather Pfeffer, 21-yearold junior and co-president of literature club. “It’s nice to just sit back and relax in a casual atmosphere and we’ve have had a better turnout this year than in semesters past, things have changed a lot,” Pfeffer said. Last semester literature club only had about five members continuously show up for meetings. This year both McDonald and Pfeffer confirm nearly 10 to 15 people joined and regularly attend meetings. The officers of literature club, in addition to McDonald and Pfeffer, are Bailey Abernathy as communications officer, Layne Pierce as secretary and Ashley Hicks as treasurer. “All of the student organizations are required to perform community service, but each club gets to decide what kind of service they want to do,” Pfeffer said. “It’s a chance to show your abilities and

Like for us, we talk about the possibility of a book drive or going to the Thomas Wolfe house.” Once a month the group dedicates one of their meetings to creative writing. They decide on a theme and bring in a short piece of writing, in any

form, based on the theme. “Most of our group is interested in creative writing. We’ve also talked about the book club type thing, but the time commitment that comes with that, you’re already reading so much for class. Creative writing is enough right now – but I have been given a lot of

good recommendations for books and we can still discuss that here as a group and discover new authors,” Pfeffer said. “We’re a very conversational group,” McDonald said. Anne Jansen, assistant literature and language professor, is the faculty ad-

viser for literature club. “I like getting together with a group of people who enjoy reading and writing as much as I do. Also, like Heather said, the break away from looking at things through an academic approach, it helps. It’s a really good way to make friends,” said Caleb Hutcheson, a 23-year-old junior. According to Pfeffer, for commuter students it’s also a good way to meet people in your department and get to know people. “It is a combination of things. It’s a good way to get involved with any organization, but with literature club talking about books that you like and connecting with people over a shared interest like that, based on just personal reasons is fun. As well as just helping improve your understanding of literature as a whole,” McDonald said.

questions around what it means to be human and what it means to be normal — whether current efforts toward enhancement technology, such as bionic - legs or performance-enhancing drugs, will benefit people equally and whether they will benefit society in general. “You see different perspectives from it. You’ve got Hugh Herr on one side that really firmly believes that with technology we can eliminate disability. And then you’ve got Gregor Wollbring or Patty Berne saying, ‘Hey, what needs to change is society. Every body is fine as it is.’ The name of the documentary is Fixed to try to draw attention to ‘What are we fixing?’” the filmmaker said. Brashear also said one of her core goals was to offer viewers a more nuanced portrayal of disability than they see in traditional entertainment media. “Disability is not a fate worse than death, which is still such a prevalent message,” she said. “People have that perception because there’s so limited portrayal of people with disabilities, physical and mental, and we get a narrow perspective of what that means and what their

lives must be like.” Kaufman said many of the struggles people with disabilities face are the same as people without disability. “What they want and what they work for are the same thing that everybody else wants and works for: access to opportunity, the benefit of self-direction and self-determination in their lives,” Kaufman said. “I think we’re in a very individualized society that pushes us to be bigger, better, faster, stronger and to be better is embedded in our culture. People get confused between equal and sameness. They think it’s interchangeable, but what we really want is equal rights- we don’t want everyone to be the same,” Brashear said. Brashear said she was inspired to make the film by biochemist Gregor Wollbring, who was speaking at a conference 10 years ago about bioengineering for improving human performance. His talks included the idea for a cyborg warrior and how it could apply to military uses and how bioengineering could create a more productive workforce. In that vein, although taken to a greater extreme, a clip in Fixed features

transhumanist scholar James Hughes saying, “In the future we’ll have fewer stupid, fat, ugly people walking around,” a quip that underscores an ethical dilemma that comes with human bioengineering. “That’s alarming to me. That sounds like the old eugenics that we don’t — I don’t want,” Brashear said. “It’s not some brand new world where we’re suddenly having these amazing new technologies. Who are humans without our technologiesour shoes and our glasses and our cell phones and our cars? Our world is shaped very much through that interaction. But there is that line: ‘Do these support the world I want to live in?’” “Where do we draw the line? You know, making sure there’s a clear difference and no confusion at all between, ‘Oh, I want to be perfect’ and ‘I just want to be better myself and be an inspiration to others’?” said Gordon McCallen, exchange student. “I think that’s a great question and I don’t think that I have the answer,” Brashear said. She said she intended her film to start conversations at multiple levels of society so people will recognize the impact of the human enhancement technology debate. Brashear will accomplish that next spring, when Fixed will be the

focus of a Future Tense event in Washington, D.C. “Science is not done in a vacuum, it’s done in a social context and we live in a social context with these disparities still with us, based on economics, based on race, based on physical and mental abilities. I feel like the conversations as far how to continue with innovation, we need to dialogue with the different groups that are most at stake or connected with these different innovations,” Brashear said. Future Tense is a collaborative effort between Slate magazine, Arizona State University and the New America Foundation to engage policymakers and innovators to answer to the dilemmas of anticipating social and structural impacts of technologies such as bioengineering. Currently she’s working to get Fixed participants Hugh Herr, a bionics engineer, NPR host John Hockenberry and Gregor Wollbring to the event. “I think the common thread is just this idea of misplaced priorities and not engaging people with disabilities from the first step to make sure we are researching and working on the technologies that are most needed and most beneficial to their lives,” Brashear said. “What we really need is social shifts and people to have access to medication, care and employment.”

risked. But you shouldn’t internalize that as your character or some sort of flaw or all-encompassing assessment of you,” Heston said. “Just take another one.” Heston said the beauty of being at a university is the amount of opportunities in classes, in clubs and in activities along with community and cultural events to try new things. Daisy Torres, a junior RA, said the residence halls provide students with an active and welcoming environment by way of residence hall events, study group set ups and weekly resident assistant interactions. Torres said students often have neighbors down the hall who share the same classes. She also said she makes a list of her hall’s residents and helps them find classmates who might make ideal study buddies. “You wouldn’t knock on your 40-year-old neighbor’s door and ask about chemistry,” Torres said. Torres said being a RA is an opportunity to show those students in her hall that they have at least one

friend in their new environment that wants to help them succeed. She said she goes so far as to find each resident on different occasions to just hang out, eat at the cafeteria or do homework together. “I’m a bit more mama bear,” Torres said. According to Torres, she is protective over her residents because she said they were extracted from the community they knew before. “Dorms are really great for freshman students, and are something that they should experience. On campus, you always have friends nearby from all different walks of life, you have every amenity, and you don’t even have to cook,” said Kyra Lewis, a junior. When a student enters college, they start navigating adulthood, according to Heston. “It gives you parameters to succeed and fail and try and reorient,” Heston said. “It’s liberating. Whether it’s new ideas or new people or subject matter or places to go.”

formation officer, said he seeks to assure students that the ITS department takes priority in protecting their privacy. “Do we actively sift through that, checking what a person’s website activity is? Not at all. We do no monitoring, traffic shaping or filtering of any kind of student interaction or faculty interaction on the Internet. So when you go to a site, that’s between you and the website, unless we are notified that an illegal activity is taking place,” Brown said. Brown said recent studies showed females online are 25 times more likely to receive explicit and threatening messages and 70 percent of those who do report cyberstalking are female.

Anyone feeling unsafe due to cyber abuse can seek help from the UNCA Counseling Center, according to Barbara Galloway, a counselor. “We would definitely sit down and talk with them about it, we would collect all the facts and do problem solving, really work on problem solving with them and thinking in terms of safety first, helping them come up with a strategy. We will help them come up with a plan that works for them,” Galloway said. “After hours, they can call Campus Police and get a counselor on call. During regular hours, they can call our front desk and get in to see someone.”

In celebration of North Carolina’s rich and diverse music history, Bill Meyers and The Monitors performed at UNC Asheville last Friday bringing listeners to their feet dancing to the funky jazz rhythms. “Bill Meyers and The Monitors have been trail blazers on the musical scene in North Carolina,” said Schree Chavdarov, the community arts coordinator for Lake Eden Arts Festival. LEAF functions as a nonprofit arts organization committed to connecting cultures and creating community through music and the arts, Chavdarov said. “Formed in 1957, the Monitors have remained

a cornerstone of the North Carolina jazz and blues culture for over 50 years. Even today Bill Meyers and The Monitors continue to provide music for celebrities and artists all across the country, as well as all the fabulous performances that they create across the state,” she said. Bill Meyers and the Monitors were also featured in the guidebook entitled ‘The North Carolina African American Music Trails,’ Chavdarov said. “We are thrilled to be teaming up with (UNCA) by bringing this phenomenal group of North Carolina musicians here,” she said. “This incredible guidebook is a celebration of jazz, rhythm and blues, funk, gospel, church music, rap and marching

bands covering over eight counties in eastern North Carolina. Along with the celebration of music, this guidebook highlights notable musicians, such as Bill Meyers and the Monitors, and many who play throughout eastern North Carolina. Their music has been part of family, church, and community life for many generations,” she said. Shirlette Ammons, a hip-hop artist and poet from Durham, brought her unique style to the celebration. “I bring you greetings from Durham, North Carolina by way of Mount Olive North Carolina which is where I’m from. I’m honored to be here with Bill Meyers and the Monitors,” she said. Ammons received the

John Hope Franklin grant for documentary studies, the Ebony Harp Harlem award for literary achievement as well as emerging artist grants from the Durham Arts Council and the United Arts Council, Chavdrov said. Prior to the event on campus, Ammons crossed paths with Bill Meyers and the Monitors in the creation of ‘The North Carolina African American Music Trails.’ “It’s kind of ironic because I did some work, transcription work, on the guidebook that was mentioned. It’s truly an honor to put faces with the music, with the stories they’ve shared. They’ve done a great job on chronicling North Carolina music for some years now,” Ammons said.

Ammons shared her North Carolina experience through her poems. She began with her poem “Set in My Ways,” an ode to her grandmother’s teachings of growing up and work ethic. “Being here with The Monitors takes me home in some ways, so I’m really honored to share these poems,” she said. Ammons’ poem “Census Man Cometh” explored the history of the poet’s family roots. “I wrote this thinking about some research I did on my last name and was able to trace the name back to the first census of North Carolina. I wrote this poem building upon on this idea of remembering that Toni Morrison could take in inanimate object and build a story around it,” she said. Bill Meyers said when

his band took to the stage after Ammons finished, they were anxious to blow their horns. “This is way before many of you were born, we organized that we would do all kinds of music. So today we’ll do some jazz, some funk and other things,” Meyers said. The band opened with an original tune called “The Force” – a funky, brass dominant jazz groove. As the sun began to set, the band covered crowd favorites like The Staple Singers’ “I’ll Take You There” and Earth, Wind and Fire’s “Sun Goddess.” “We just want you to enjoy. If it feels like something you want to dance to, the dance floor is always open,” Meyers said.

Student fights cancer, gains courage from friends TINA LANGFORD

With awareness-raising 5Ks and other events popping up all around the city, Asheville is reminded of the many people dealing with breast cancer all across the nation. According to the American Cancer Society, more than 200,000 people were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2013. “October has always been like my ‘mom’s month’,” said Erin Jones, a junior at UNC Asheville, who has dealt with cancer in her immediate family and personally. In 2012 her mother received the diagnosis, but Jones herself was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in May of this year. “My mom has really been what I consider a mentor for me throughout my treatment. She let me

in on the things they don’t really tell you about chemotherapy,” Jones said. “The day I shaved my head she passed down her pink hat to me.” Jones faced her own battles with cancer in recent months. Her mother has been in remission for about a year and a half. “I had someone there to tell me that is was going to hurt when my hair fell out, and so it’s good to wear a soft cap around the house,” Jones said. With her mother there to relate to, Jones surrounded herself with other survivors during her and her mother’s struggle, and said she truly values this month and what it means to her. “I remember my mom introducing me to breast cancer survivors she met while going through her treatment,” Jones said. Those survivors helped encourage Jones. “They asked me how I

was doing, encouraged me to get plenty of rest, and most importantly to stay positive.” Jones said she sees having other people there to support her who have dealt with the same things has been very beneficial through her struggle. ”In a strange way it feels like I’m part of a special club of people all there to uplift each other,” Jones said. “Which is really wonderful and I know, personally, made me feel a lot more confident going forward with my treatment.” Jones faced a multitude of struggles this year, especially while trying to maintain her life at school. After planning on being able to come back to school this August after finishing her radiation treatment, Jones was unexpectedly put on hold for this semester. “It was described as a pin-point size amount,”

Jones said. “They wanted to do extra radiation over that area, but it was too close to my heart so it was decided that I do another two cycles of chemo at the last minute.” Jones took this semester off and plans to come back to school in January after her treatment. Jone’s friends and colleagues have been extremely supportive during her battle. “I’ve gotten so many encouraging letters, messages and little care packages,” Jones said. “It’s all made this time so much easier because I know I have all these people who are rooting for me and want to know how I’m doing.” Jones is in Gamma Phi Beta, a sorority at UNCA, and she revels about the support she has received from her sisters this year. “Most recently my sisters made me a blanket and one made a crescent moon

pillow for me,” Jones said. “I’ve kept it with me while resting and during chemo treatment.” Jones entered the organization as a freshman, and has stayed extremely close to her sorority family through her battle with cancer. “I think that Erin has been the most wonderful example of grace beneath the pressure of her illness,” said Christina Coslian, a senior at UNCA and Jones’ big sister in the sorority. “She has truly been inspirational for all who know her.” While facing her ailments directly, Jones found outlets to help with the physical and emotional aspects of her illness. “I try to always keep myself laughing,” Jones said. Jones said her sense of humor proved beneficial during rough times. “Recently I’ve been

cracking jokes all of the time, sometimes about my hair loss or chemo, or that I shouldn’t be made to do anything because I’m sick. To laugh at it makes all of the big realties not so scary.” Jones also jokes with her fellow cancer survivors, finding new ways to relate with others and overcome her struggle. “Sometimes we’ll joke that we like each others’ haircuts,” Jones said. Jones said that now that she has faced her own battles with cancer, she sees the importance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and an aware community. “Even if our cancers are different, our struggles as survivors are very similar and there is an overwhelming desire to share these experiences with each other.”

Faculty Spotlight Faculty member discusses transition to UNCA RACHEL INGRAM ringram@unca.edu Copy Desk Chief

World traveler Deena Burris left behind a tenured position at Guilford College for a broader teaching spectrum at UNC Asheville. “I was on the beach in the springtime and I got this clear message from the universe saying, ‘You’re going to leave Guilford.’ I’m like, ‘No way. 13 years, tenure, why would I do that?’ But it persisted, ‘No, you’re going to leave Guilford – it’s necessary.’ So I went back to school in August, and I really just didn’t feel right. Nothing was fitting together,” she said. Last November Burris began to casually research open teaching positions at other schools. ‘It would have to be really good for me to leave this,’ she thought to herself when she first considered taking a position at a new school. In less than a year, UNCA hired her. She said her spirit animal is a shark. Burris finds sharks’ teeth washed up on the beach frequently. According to Burris, she collected more than 20, including a prehistoric Megalodon tooth.

“The shark is bold and independent,” she said. “The shark gives me messages.” According to Burris, she felt the shark reassured her that moving to Asheville and taking the job at UNCA was the right thing to do. Despite having to pack up her family – a husband, two children, three dogs and an entire house, Burris said the move to Asheville was easy. “It’s way different from Winston-Salem, but that’s why we picked it,” she said. Her family visited Asheville frequently prior to applying for the position at UNCA. Burris said they were very excited to move here and become a part of the community. The similarity between the two liberal arts colleges, Guilford College and UNCA, made for a smooth transition, according to Burris. “It’s like I have plunked myself from Guilford to here and I just kept going,” she said. “Teaching is my passion. I love being at a liberal arts school because we can teach a broad range of subjects.” Burris said adapting to an increased class load is challenging. She cur-

One change Burris enjoys, though, is the ability to get home in time to eat dinner with her husband and

daughters every night. “Guilford runs a fulltime night program and there’s not that here, which I like,” she said. She also took on the role of study abroad coordinator for the management and accountancy depart-

ment. “My plan is to start taking students abroad during the summer,” she said. The department does not currently offer management-focused trips. Burris said her trips are open to all students. Instead of a

history, archeology or art focus, the group will visit and study international businesses, according to Burris. When asked, she said she enjoyed her wonderful first semester. “I love it here, and I’m not just saying that.”

Olive Wilbur

Classics and literature student at UNCA How would you describe your style? “Hmm, Goodwill. I would say it’s sort of hippie-ish, but not too much. I like dressing up to look fancy when I need to. I like glitter and I’m going to put some on for work tonight. I dress up for work, so I kind of have different personalities. “When I dress up for school, I usually look nerdy. My hair and how I feel like wearing it that day influences the way I will choose to dress.”

Tell me about this outfit: “I love knee socks. I always get too hot in pants and then it gets warm in the day - but then it gets cold, so I wear knee socks. I bought these socks and all these rings at the new H&M. It makes me look like I’m cool and like to pick out rings, but it’s really just a set for five bucks. “I got this headband for my Halloween costume because I’m going to be dressing up as Cleopatra. I read her biography this summer and she’s awesome.” State your style in three words: “Comfortable, elegant and minimalist.” If you had to choose an inspiration, fashion or otherwise, who would you choose?

“I’m going to be really weird and say I’m inspired by classical imagery of goddesses. I like wearing maxi-dresses, head things, looking really elegant but also quite regal.”

Darren Minke Artist, California native

Tell me a little bit about your style: “My style is kind of funny. It’s mostly just that I make my clothes out of fabric that I think looks interesting. “It started because I couldn’t find pants that actually fit me because of how tall I am. “I tend to make pants out of stuff that you’re supposed to use for upholstery. “They’re more interesting. All the stuff that I want to make would be the stuff other people have on their couch and curtains.” Do you have a particularly favorite color scheme? “Not necessarily. I used to mostly do earth tones, but these days I’ve been getting into neon colors. “I have a few friends who have been giving me rainbow stuff so I’ve started wearing that. “Plus I spend most of my time working the festival scene traveling around the country and around the world now. “It’s kind of a no-holdsbarred approach when it comes to fashion. I can get away with anything.”

Do you have a personal style philosophy? “Not that I’ve ever thought of, no – except that I’m not afraid to wear something outrageous.”

If you were to describe your style in three words, what would you say? “Gypsy, pirate, wild.”

Women’s soccer clenches nail-biter victory HARRISON SLAUGHTER

jslaught@unca.edu Staff Writer

With a little more than two minutes left of play against Big South Conference leader Coastal Carolina, Caroline Houser put a shot into the back of the net to the secure the win for the UNC Asheville women’s soccer team. “I felt that we sort of had to weather the storm during the first half because they had the wind with them. We tried to

get it in the first half but it didn’t work out. It was really just about trying to be patient,” said Michelle Demko, head coach of the UNCA women’s soccer team. “I thought we did well to build out the back during the first half.” According to Demko, the Bulldogs prepared for the game by keeping the team open to trying new things. “We knew we were going to play a couple different formations. We just told the players that they were going to have to be

open and trust us,” Demko said. “We watched a lot of film. We studied their tendencies and looked for their weaknesses. We thought we could get one on the counter attack and it turned out that is how we scored.” During the first half of play, the Chanticleers held an 11 to 2 advantage in shots attempted, but neither team could find the back of the net. After halftime, the Bulldogs came out with a different approach, according to Demko.

“We knew going in at halftime we would have the wind in the second half so that really changed our tactical thought as far as not wanting to build out of the backfield. When Heather got it, we wanted to utilize her punt and put our three forwards versus their three backs and see if we could get something out of that,” Demko said. With Coastal continuing to hold a shot advantage during the second half, Heather Muller kept Asheville in the game with 11 saves throughout the

he UNC Asheville men’s soccer team came up with a 1 to 1 tie against the Winthrop Eagles, who ranked 22nd nationally. “We would have preferred a win and three points, but we will take the draw and one point against a top 25 team in the country,” said Matt Kern, head coach of the men’s soccer team. According to Kern, the Bulldogs worked on defense in preparation for this match. “Leading up to the game, the team really made a conscious effort to be a little more compact defensively, marking a little tighter, and getting more numbers in the final third,” Kern said. UNCA took a single-score

lead on a ball sent toward the goal by Emil Gonsalvez that the goalkeeper couldn’t quite hang onto and Alex Eden put it in the net. The Eagles had a 29 to 7 edge in shots attempted throughout the match. Dan Jackson, goalkeeper for the men’s soccer team came up with nine saves. “Winthrop did a good job of sending numbers up front in the second half,” Kern said. It looked as if UNCA would still pull off the upset until Winthrop found an equalizer in a goal by Patrick Barnes. The game remained tied during two overtime periods with Jackson making three saves to keep the Eagles from taking the lead. “We are really looking forward to our next stretch of games,” Kern said.

game. The game seemed to be going to overtime until Caroline Houser hit a chip shot over the goalkeeper’s head during the 87th minute of play. “Caroline Houser is dangerous. She stays very patient and very composed. She’s just a freshman, but she came up playing for a very prominent club and she has put herself in that environment multiple times,” Demko said. “What I love about her is that she doesn’t panic. She just hunts the ball and she

can make something happen on her own.” According to Houser, forward for the women’s soccer team, she knew she put them in a great position to win. “It was unreal. I have no idea how I made it, but I did. As soon as I made it I just ran straight to the bench because I was so excited,” Houser said. “I knew there were like two minutes left so I knew we could win it. We just knew that if we worked together and worked for each other that we could get it.”

nese samurai fled to Brazil. Those who stayed in Japan created judo, which centers on throwing the opponent. Woodard said what makes the fighting style unique is primarily the focus on ground fighting. Woodard instructs the group fitness classes in the Sherrill Center on Mondays and Wednesdays, with Mondays geared toward women. Allison Bardes, a freshman who takes the class, said she saw an ad for the group fitness classes in the student newspaper and said she always wanted to take jiu-jitsu. “I’ve always been interested in the martial arts, but never had the means to do it, and with jiu-jitsu, it doesn’t matter the size of your opponent or the strength, but how you handle it,” Bardes said. Joseph Hoitela, a senior, said he took interest in the class to help him stay physically fit. “After wrestling for a few years, I thought this would be a good way to be fit again,” Hoitela said.

New jiu-jitsu club teaches self-defense jarmostr1@unca.edu Staff Writer

The recently-created Brazilian jiu-jitsu club aims to instruct both men and women on the unique style of fighting and how to defend themselves by getting their opponent on the ground, according to club members. “It was unlike anything I have ever done before,” said Weston Woodard, a senior and president of the Brazilian jiu-jitsu club. Woodard, who studied the fighting style for three years, not only instructs the club but also instructs a group fitness class as well. Woodard said he wanted to bring his passion for the sport back to campus through the formation of the club. “I found it increasingly difficult to find time to go off campus to train, and I really wanted to get people on campus to try Brazilian jiu-jitsu,” Woodard said. According to Woodard, Brazilian jiu-jitsu deviated from the Japanese medieval martial arts from the Meiji era, when the Japa-

On the Trail

Exploring local nature spots RACHEL INGRAM ringram@unca.edu Copy Desk Chief

A

s the leaves begin to change and tourist season in Western North Carolina reaches its peak, Asheville locals can retreat down hidden paths and enjoy some of the best secluded views the region offers. Greenland Creek Falls Difficulty: The narrow, winding trail to Greenland Creek Falls is best suited for the sure-footed. The first portion of the trail is broad, open and mostly downhill. Once the trail veers off to the left to lead into the waterfall; however, the

pervasive rhododendron encloses the path. Several shallow creek crossings along the route also become increasingly muddy and hard to avoid. Getting there: From Brevard, take U.S. 64 West to North Carolina 281. Follow it for a mile, turning left at the fire station. Continue following 281 for nearly 6 miles. When the road appears to dead-end at the “Canaan-Land” retreat center, make a hard left turn. The parking area for Panthertown Valley will be just ahead on the right. After pulling into the lot, park along the left shoulder as soon as the road widens. The Mac’s Gap Trail begins here. The treasure: An easy

for about half a mile to the base of a more than 50-feet, multi-section waterfall with clean water and plenty of smooth boulders and fallen trees to climb.

Volleyball team plans Dig Pink Day blue and white. During the game, fans can purchase pink ribbons and make donations to the fight against breast cancer with all proceeds raised going to Ladies Night Out, a program started by Mission Hospital and Buncombe County Health and Human Services that provides mammograms, physicals, blood pressure and cholesterol screenings and health education to women living

below the poverty line. The program also offers child watch, transportation services and interpreters to ensure every woman who qualifies has access to these services. Ladies Night Out occurs on the first Thursday of every month. Every year the Dig Pink game is made possible with the help of Erin Spence, director of corporate sales, marketing and promotions for UNCA ath-

letics. “UNC Asheville Athletics is proud to have a small part in the fight against breast cancer. I am especially proud that all donations raised from this event will stay in Western Carolina. Providing mammograms and cancer screenings to women here in the Asheville area helps keep our community healthier by helping with early detection,” Spence said.

As a team comprised mostly of freshmen and devoid of senior athletes, the UNC Asheville women’s volleyball team look for leadership from Christine Lakatos, their junior co-captain. “We had to step up as juniors to kind of take that role so that has been rough. There have been growing pains for us because we have had good things, we have had bad things and we are just now getting to where we are supposed to be as leaders,” Lakatos said. Although difficulties coincided with becoming a team captain, Lakatos added that her and Catherine Fischer, co-captain were comfortable with the responsibility from the beginning of the season. “It has been a huge learning experience for all of us. In the beginning it was hard though because you’re thinking you’re doing the right things, but then coaching is like, ‘No, how about this?’ So it is like a new way of thinking. It has helped us all grow up a lot -- me specifically,” Lakatos said. This year duties fall on her and Fischer as captains to improve communication between coaching staff and the players, ensuring everyone has an understanding of the team’s needs and goals throughout the season. “We are the liaison, really, from the coaches to the players,” Lakatos said. “The communication needs to be open for both parties.” Both players and coaches said they believe that Lakatos and Fischer proved on multiple occasions that they are a good fit for the captain position. “Christine has had a really good impact on the program. She is stepping into that leadership role and I think, and her teammates seem to think, that she is the right choice along with Cat,” said Frederico Santos, head coach. “She is a caring teammate. She really looks after the rest of the girls and has been really positive with the new girls.” With the majority of players being freshmen, the team adopted a sorority-like big sister system where upperclassmen act as mentors to new players and help them as they acclimate into the program. Mandy Powers, a freshman from Raleigh, is

Lakatos’ “little sister” and said her support proves essential to creating a positive team dynamic. Powers said her influence has not only been an impact on her, but also the entire team. “She has been the most amazing leader. I think it is special to have someone out on the court who not only leads with her words but leads by example,” Powers said. “If we need a point Christine is going to get that point for us.” In 2012 Lakatos traveled from Lauderhill, Florida to Asheville to begin her college volleyball career. Before the move, she attended Calvary Christian Academy and held the team title of MVP as a junior and senior. It is also where Santos began eyeing Lakatos as a prospective recruit. During that time he was coaching Barry University’s volleyball team in Miami. In 2011, after his three year stint in Miami, Santos returned to Asheville as UNCA’s head volleyball coach. “She actually played in the club that I coached so I could always watch her on the court and I even knew her coach so I asked her, ‘Do you want to come to Asheville instead of Miami?” Santos said. When looking at her options of where to play college volleyball, Lakatos said UNCA stood as her first choice. Lakatos plans to graduate in 2015 with a degree in health and wellness promotions but as of now her focus is on having a strong finish to the season, which began conference play at the end of September. A concern for some players is the team’s record not being reflective of how well they played because of struggles towards the end of sets. This weekend UNCA hosts Charleston Southern on Friday and Coastal Carolina on Saturday, both of which are conference games. “We’re right on track. We are on the road, we’re fighting hard, we come back with these amazing games and then we just fall short at the end. I think we need to keep finishing and keep working in practice,” Lakatos said. “But it will show, it already has showed a lot. We have progressed hugely from the beginning of the year and if we keep working, keep fighting and we give ourselves those opportunities we are going to win them.”

Banner Banter: #Ebola TYLER SPRINKLE Co-Business Manager

Breast Cancer Awareness Month – wait – that’s October, right? Most media coverage given to this chronic disease is panning camera movements toward the offensive linemens’ socks on Monday Night Football. What is the cause of our society forgetting their loved ones at chemotherapy? Ebola. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s most recent statistics, the disease stole more than 41,000 women and men’s lives in 2011 alone. No need for a Google engine search to know the United States death toll of Ebola, the top story of every Good Morning America broadcast this month -- one. With utmost respect, condolences must be paid to the family and friends of Thomas Eric Duncan. Of the eight confirmed cases in the United States, the victims either came in contact with Duncan or carried the germs from Africa as he did. The loss of one life is tragic. Residing hundreds of miles away from Ebola’s landing site, the loss of Americans’ sanity over the supposed outbreak is a tragic comedy. A ‘Do you have Ebola?’ quiz went viral on Twitter. It reads: Have you recently come in contact with the vomit, blood, saliva, urine or feces of someone who might have Ebola? The only choice of an answer: no. Also on Twitter, a meme of the stunning, but humanity-disgracing Kim Kardashian reads, ‘More Americans have been married to a Kardashian than died from Ebola.’ A deadly disease is now the new, uneducated talk of kids and the en-

tertainment of bored smartphone owners scrolling through their social media applications thanks to exaggerated, unnecessary media coverage. Pink ribbon socks, breast cancer marathons and fundraisers will lead to a medical discovery one day, saving and preventing lives from cancer. Mocking an equally-deadly disease saves nothing but face. President Obama chose to indulge himself in a campaigning trip rather than attend an Ebola response meeting last week. Don’t worry, mainstream media scrutinized his decision and alerted the country of his nonchalant attitude toward a socalled epidemic that hasn’t happened. Americans do have the slightest, tiniest right to possess inklings of panic as a foreign, dangerous sickness hit our home turf. Highly-trained doctors and scientists know Ebola is a transmitted disease -- it is avoidable. However, women and men next door are battling breast cancer and await this month each year with hope for a peak in funding and research to find a cure for a disease they simply inherited. Of course, America turned third-world countries’ problem into a classic ‘if it bleeds it leads’ madness. Americans advanced tremendously as a country in science, education and technology, but are still acting like fools of 1938 when Orson Welles faked an alien invasion via the radio broadcast, “War of the Worlds.” Apparently, if mainstream media quotes the subject, it is worth spreading the word even to the point of paranoia and destruction. Talking fixes nothing. America needs to let Dallas, Texas, celebrate its 21- day Ebola free quarantine then redo Breast Cancer Awareness month and offer support for the thousands of forgotten, chronically ill patients in our hospitals.

The mainstream media coverage of Ebola may on the surface seem to be more fear mongering and used as a smokescreen for upcoming elections, but the importance of highlighting this epidemic cannot be understated.
