New poll: NC residents overwhelmingly support bond proposal

Staff Writer

A new poll released Wednesday shows North Carolina residents overwhelmingly support the $2 billion bond, which will be on the ballot March 15. The poll, conducted by High Point University from Feb. 18 through 25, revealed that 69 percent of respondents were in support of the proposal, 20 percent said they didn’t know and 15 percent said they were unsure or declined to say. Though the poll wasn’t limited to registered voters, 393 of the 476 people were registered and represented all 100 counties in North Carolina. The poll has a margin of error of 4.5 percent.

Cherie Berry challenger vows to replace elevator photos

North Carolina Commissioner of Labor Cherie Berry will face a challenger in the November election — Democrat Charles Meeker. Meeker, who served 10 years as mayor of Raleigh, announced Wednesday that if elected, he would replace the photos of Berry posted in every elevator she has certified with a picture of workers who do the certifying. Meeker also said he would add more information about how to report employmentrelated problems. Meeker called Berry’s photo in every elevator an act of “self-promotion by a career politician.” Meeker will have a primary race against Mazie Ferguson March 15.

Zeke Hartner NC State’s Kenneth Swartzel was elected to be a part of the National Academy of Engineers, the highest distinction that an engineer can be awarded, for his work as a food-bioprocessing engineer.

“I feel deeply honored,” Swartzel said. “As I’ve said to many people, it is an enormously humbling experience.”

He has been a researcher, a teacher at the graduate level and a department head throughout his career.

His main research triumph includes developing a new method of heat-based food processing.

Swartzel said he feels deeply honored for receiving the award, as being elected into the academy is something he would have never expected.

“It’s seen as something that is unattainable because there are so few people who get in,” Swartzel said.

Much of Swartzel’s research deals with continuous flow systems and food safety. Swartzel and his team have pioneered thermal flow technology that keeps food fresh for much longer. This heat treatment is used to sterilize food during packaging.

When using continuous flow though, heat is applied faster and in a more uniform way. He said continuous flow was used for completely liquid substances, but this was harder to use on foods with particles. Swartzel and his team started this project in the mid ‘80s and were the first ones to fix the issue of particles in continuous flow, which is now commercialized.

Symposium explores integrated care model Emma Cathell The fields of psychiatry, social work, health care and other similar backgrounds are always trying to find the best types of care for patients. An emerging style that some of these professions are implementing is the “integrated care model.” This model is the cost-effective and patientcentered care a client receives as a result of a team that includes primary care and

D.H. Hill Library and Hunt Library are finalists for the National Medal for Library Service award, an award honoring libraries that demonstrate extraordinary and innovative approaches to public service and make a difference for individuals, families and communities.

“The award is the highest honor a library can receive,” said Christopher Tonelli, the NCSU Libraries director of communication strategy.

NC State’s libraries are some of the only libraries in the finalist group that are academic research libraries.

“It’s typically not an award for academic research libraries, because it is a service award, and typically public libraries do more community outreach,” Tonelli said.

Each finalist will be featured on the Institute of Museum and Library Services Facebook page. NC State will be featured on March 11.

On that day, library staff will try to get people to post on the institute’s Facebook page to share pictures and information about the different services they offer to students and the surrounding community.

“Our vision is not only to continue to help campus users, but let that spill over into the surrounding community to benefit everybody in the Triangle area,” Tonelli said.

Students on campus enjoy using the libraries for a variety of reasons. During the week, the libraries are always full of students studying, spending some down time in-between classes or meeting to work on a group project.

Julie Kemp, a junior studying communication, said

The topic of the Department of Social Work’s spring symposium yesterday was integrated behavioral health care. One part of the symposium event was the panel discussion by experts in the field of integrated care, who were from both Wake and Johnston counties. The panel featured Marilyn Pearson, Avis Dublin, Gwendolyn K. Newsome, Evelyn Sanders, Laura McDaniel and Jason Lane, with Sharon Dempsey, the event’s keynote speaker, moderating.

Committee to consider proposal to add black leaders to Capitol grounds statues

A proposal to add statues in honor of black citizens of North Carolina alongside the other statues on the Capitol grounds has been making progress, and further meetings will be held to discuss more details. The project began in 2010 after the moratorium on the monuments was lifted and was made a priority after the shooting last summer of nine black churchgoers in Charleston, South Carolina. Existing monuments include those honoring Confederate soldiers killed in the Civil War, white supremacy activist Gov. Charles Aycock, and President Andrew Jackson, who played a large role in the removal of the Native Americans in the 1830s. The project does not currently have funding.

Before the company was started, 30 percent of sweet potato crops went to waste in the fields because there was no market for them until his team found a way to sterilize sweet potato puree through continuous flow, according to Swartzel.

More than 300 people attended Wednesday’s Wells Fargo Lecture Series featuring Bill McDermott, CEO of SAP, who gave an inspirational talk about the “winner’s dream.”

McDermott heads the tech giant and is also the author of a book titled “Winners Dream: A Journey from Corner Store to Corner Office,” which shares career and leadership insights based on McDermott’s experiences.

McDermott grew up in a working-class Long Island home, where at age 16, he took out a $7,000 loan and used it to buy a deli, the prof-

its of which were later used to help pay for college. After college, McDermott got a job at Xerox, selling door-to-door, and later became the youngest corporate officer the company held.

“Never let go of your dream,” McDermott said. “The first thing is this: There is absolute total correlation between the size of your dream, the broadness of your imagination, the nature of your courage and ultimately where you come out.”

During the talk, McDermott emphasized that it is important to do what you love.

“I talk to young people [and ask,] ‘What is your dream? What do you want? What’s your thing?’”

McDermott said. “They will say ‘I

don’t know, I am still working on it.’ Once you have fully formed that point of view about who you are, the authentic real you, and decide for yourself where you want to go, everything else gets easier. Never give up on that original dream — it will chase you around that world, and it will eventually catch you.”

McDermott shared a personal story of an accident he had last July when he fell on a glass he was holding while at a relative’s home, resulting in life-threatening injuries.

He was able to crawl outside and get help, but the accident resulted in nine hours of surgery and eight days in intensive care.

“There comes a moment where, in that instance of crisis, people say it

really builds character,” McDermott said. “It doesn’t build character, it reveals character. Everything you are and everything you want to be reveals itself in a moment of crisis. It may not show its hand when things are going OK; it’s when everything is not going so well when we know the real you. That’s the biggest thing I took away from it.”

After the talk, McDermott discussed in an interview some of the challenges students face today, and he also gave advice both to students graduating and starting out in college.

he NC State Clown Nose Club met in the First-Year College building Wednesday to discuss what it was planning to do to help with Service Raleigh. Service Raleigh is the annual city-wide day of service that takes place in Raleigh, and this year it will be taking place Saturday, April 9 . This year, the Clown Nose Club will be volunteering at Mariposa School for Children with Autism by weeding the flower beds and cleaning the outside toys for the kids. For another way to get involved, Service Raleigh is partnering with Feed the Pack Food Pantry and will be collecting donations at Stafford Commons as volunteers arrive on April 9.

the different universities in the system, we did the workshops, but at the same time it was very gratifying to walk on UNC-Charlotte’s campus and see some of the technologies they developed there.”

Swartzel did not always want to be a food science engineer, however. He wanted to be an astronaut.

In his Personal Research Journey, he described how he used to love tearing things apart and building new things. He also was very interested in the space program. He was planning on getting a degree in aerospace engineering so he could become a pilot in the Air Force.

Swartzel said that he always had some problems with his eyes, and halfway through his undergraduate degree, he decided to get an operation to get his eyes checked. The doctor said that he had very poor depth percep-

tion, which was an issue for landing planes.

“He said, ‘There is no way you’ll ever fly a jet,’” Swartzel said. “That was pretty traumatic. That was a lifechanging moment.”

After that, he went through several fields, including geology, material engineering and other random electives until he found one that stuck.

“I found my way over at the last part to this weird area called food engineering, and it was all because of this one faculty member, and his name was Vic Jones. I owe what I am and a great deal of what I’ve become to Vic Jones,” Swartzel said. “He got me interested in how I could use the technologies of aerospace engineering in the food industry. Most people would never ever put that together.”

He said that he was terrified of Jones, but he is grateful to him. He said that

this professor changed his life.

After his undergraduate degree, Swartzel took a job in Wisconsin as a project manager for a food equipment manager. He had four offers, but he wanted the job that would teach him the most in the shortest amount of time. Swartzel said that this job is what started his passion for food processing.

“The passion comes from when you finally do push the button and the darn thing works, and you see product coming out and you know that you’re doing good for somebody, a lot of somebodies,” Swartzel said. “And maybe you’re doing something that’s been done before, but maybe you’re doing something that’s never been done before.”

Throughout his career, Swartzel has earned countless national awards, including the Institute of Food Technologists’ Nicholas Appert Award for pre-

eminence in and contributions to the field of food science and technology.

He is also a fellow of both the IFT and the American Society for Agricultural and Biological Engineers. He has published more than 120 scientific papers.

He described how the idea of doing things the way it has always been done was a very pervasive attitude within the industry, and he saw it all the time.

He said that he couldn’t stand it, which is when he decided to go get his masters. Swartzel said that even after he got his master’s degree, he was seeing a lot of problems that weren’t being fixed because people were reluctant to change.

“Why I’m so passionate is that I have seen how little you have to do to make a huge difference,” Swartzel said.

illness or substance abuse disorder.

“As a grant recipient, we committed to bringing models of integrated behavioral health care to the community in order to improve medical outcomes for those currently not receiving care or receiving fragmented care,” Hall said. “This symposium provided an opportunity to engage students, medical providers, community members and researchers in one room.”

Sharon Dempsey, the founder and owner of Integrated Behavioral Health Solutions in Greensboro, was the keynote speaker of the symposium.

Dempsey has six years of experience specifically working in the style of integrated care for individual and family patients.

“What integrated behavioral health care is, in essence, is a one-stop shop to support individuals with both mental and physical health needs,” Dempsey said. “It is very efficient compared to traditional models. It’s time-efficient, cost-effective and most of all, it’s relational. It’s about the relationship [a practitioner] has with an individual, which ultimately gets that individual

to ‘buy in’ what you’re ‘selling.’”

During Dempsey’s opening speech, she explained the impacts integrative health care has. For instance, in a “traditional health care model,” the physicians, mental health clinicians, practitioners, etc. work separately, usually not collaborating on paperwork, strategies and observations.

With integrative health care, these three institutions work and collaborate together. The client does not have to go to three different places, fill out three different sets of paperwork and talk to three different sets of staff; integrative care is all under one umbrella, according to Dempsey.

Yasmeen Hardy, a graduate student studying social work, said she enjoyed learning about a different therapy model. In the field of social work, the integrative behavioral model is not well known and practiced, according to Hardy, so it was an interesting topic to learn about.

“I feel like every social worker has once thought, ‘what if psychiatrists, nurses, doctors and everyone collaborated into one agency to help a client

to make it easier,’ and that’s what this training is about today,” Hardy said.

“I really feel like this is something that should be spread, and this is something I am very interested in learning more about.”

After Dempsey’s speech, the symposium continued with two shifts of breakout sessions that included five different talks. Each talk was about the integrative health care model but with different populations including children, adolescents, people with substance or alcohol abuse, older adults and children in foster care, and a different expert in the field of integrative health spoke.

Followed by the two sessions was a panel of experts who use the integrative care model in their work. The fields of the presenters included pediatrician, medical director, professor and social worker, amongst others, and they all work throughout Raleigh and beyond to Johnston County.

Hall said the department chose these presenters because they understand and recognize “the important interdisciplinary collaboration in

order to produce improved patient outcomes.”

“We selected presenters and panelist that are positively impacting the community,” Hall said. “Once we selected our keynote speaker, Sharon Dempsey, we built around her expertise of successful integrated behavioral health models.”

Both Hall and Dempsey said it is important for social work students, as well as others in the community, to learn about integrated behavioral health care, and the symposium was a great avenue for that.

“As researchers continue to show the benefit of integrated care for patients, insurance companies and policy makers are beginning to move toward recognizing the value of integrated models of care,” Hall said. “Social workers tend to be on the frontlines of care, particularly for poor, marginalized and vulnerable groups. We want our students to be on the cutting edge of understanding and using researchinformed models of care.”

“Something about being surrounded by other students in the silent reading rooms in both DH Hill and Hunt helps me focus and get my work done,” Pell said.

If NCSU Libraries does not receive the award this year, there is always an opportunity for next year.

Tonelli said many of the current finalists have been contenders multiple years in a row.

“Wi n ni ng t h is awa rd would mean we are not only impacting campus users, but t he Tria ng le area and North Carolina,” Tonelli said.

stant state of change, from one day to another, with the dizzying evolution of technology and the globalization of world economies,” McDermott said. “It’s probably tough for students to lock in on their winner’s dream and figure out what they want to do. What I try to do is bring them back to who they really are, and that the best part of them is being themselves and to stay true to their authenticity.”

One last piece of advice McDermott had for students when searching for a career is to go beyond just talking to the recruiter, recommending instead going to the person in charge of the department or area in the company that one is truly interested in pursuing.

“By going to the top, you’re going in

with a sponsor that’s guiding you towards your ultimate goal,” McDermott said. “I encourage people to pursue their ambition. If they know what they want to do, go to the top person, and tell them what they want. But, put it in terms of what you will do for them and how you will be in service for them. Once you understand the world through the eyes of other people, the doors of opportunity open for you.”

McDermott’s former boss, Emerson Fullwood, invited McDermott to NC State for the Wells Fargo Lecture Series.

Fullwood is an NC State alumnus who graduated in economics, and he has invited three CEOs to three other previous Wells Fargo lectures.

“Bill was an extraordinary talent and was the kind of talent that I was recruiting to join my organization at Xerox,” Fullwood said.

Both students and staff alike enjoyed

the talk. Toward the end, McDermott handed out and signed his book for some students.

“I have been here three and a half years, I have seen 10 to 12 Wells Fargo lectures,” said Scott Troutman, director of development and external relations for the Poole College of Management. “This is the best one I have seen in terms of engaging the audience, meaningful stories, meaningful lessons. We had an old basketball coach, Jim Valvano, if he had been a CEO, he would have been Bill McDermott.”

Students found McDermott’s message inspiring, some saying that they will apply his message to their own lives.

“I thought it was very inspiring to hear what he was able to accomplish, going from being the son of a working-class family to being the CEO of SAP,” said Savannah Stanaland, a senior studying accounting. “I hope to take his words to heart and base my life upon them.”

35 Cultural observations W

hen I first hopped on a plane across the country and moved to North CaroLogan lina f rom Graham Colorado Correspondent last August, I ex pec ted to experience a major cultural shift from what I had grown up in — and indeed I did. But now, half a year later, I’ve fully adjusted and fallen in love with this place.

Raleigh, North Carolina and the South have an intoxicating feeling that’s hard to describe, filled with incredibly nice people and amazing things.

Even with moving to such a great place, the transition from the Colorado to the South has still been a dramatic one. I’ve had to adjust to saying “y’all,” drinking Cheerwine and lowering my expectations for how much snow causes a snow day. Naturally, I’ve had thousands of thoughts run through my head as I made this cultural adjustment from Colorado to North Carolina for college. Here are 35 of them:

1. Wait, you can get a tray for only $5? I’m so down.

2. So I guess it’s “y’all” now.

3. Wait, it’s pronounced Appa-LATCH-a?

4. So this is how country music is still in business.

5. Go to hell Carolina.

6. Bricks, so many bricks.

7. I don’t know if I’m ever going to stop sweating — this humidity is killer.

8. Who knew Crocs could be paired with a suit.

9. Dang, the tea really is sweet.

10. Cheerwine > Cherry Coke.

11. We got a snow day for that?!?

12. Oh, so that’s why Southern hospitality is a thing.

13. I thought we were supposed to be amazing at basketball.

14. You call those mountains? Aren’t those hills?

15. First half of basketball games = so much hype.

16. Second half of basketball games = inevitable let down.

17. Go to hell Carolina.

18. Now this is what real

school spirit looks like.

19. So there are two types of barbecue?

20. Wait, Charlotte isn’t the capital?

21. Ribs here are the best ever.

22. Cookout = Best. Milkshake. Ever.

23. North Carolina loves sweet potatoes.

24. KFC is nothing compared to Bojangles’.

25. Jimmy V is God. 26. Everything is so green.

27. I never knew biscuits could taste so good.

28. It doesn’t snow here, it ice storms.

29. Shut up Ohio, we were first in flight.

30. So grits are definitely not oatmeal.

31. I guess “Wagon Wheel” is now the anthem.

32. I still don’t get why we are called the “Tar Heel” state.

33. Wait, you can put Cheer w ine in a K rispy Kreme doughnut?

34. If you ever have a pig pickin’, please invite me.

35. Go to hell Carolina.

New dietary guidelines: Something’s missing E

very five years, the United States government releases new dietary guidelines to inform the public Soumya of t he evolv ing science Nadabar around food and nutrition Guest Columnist and to provide advice surrounding healthful dietary choices. The new 2015 “Dietary Guidelines for Americans” were released early this month, and there has been little change from 2010. Much of the advice given in the government’s guidelines is familiar: Con-

“It seems ridiculous to exclude the recommendation to consume less of a food that causes cancer, but that is exactly what the meat industry managed to do.” sume less sugar and salt; eat more fruits and vegetables. However, there was one overwhelmingly controversial recommendation that was pulled from the initial draft.

The panel of experts charged with writing the guidelines originally insisted on advising against excessive consumption of red and processed meat. This is sensible, particularly in light of the World Health Organization’s recent categorization of processed meats as certainly carcinogenic and red meats as most likely carcinogenic. Furthermore, a number of studies have shown

{

that increased meat consumption leads to greater risk of cardiovascular disease, the source of 30 percent of all deaths in the U.S., Type 2 diabetes, stroke and oftentimes a higher body mass index.

It seems ridiculous to exclude the recommendation to consume less of a food that causes cancer, but that is exactly what the meat industry managed to do. The North American Meat Institute (NAMI) argued that the committee of scientists’ initial advice was “nonsensical.” They requested and won a 30-day extension on the dietary recommendations’ comment period, during which NAMI provided feedback to justify its allegations. Ultimately, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) decided to leave out the recommendation to limit meat consumption.

These guidelines could have been a critical step toward reducing cancer rates, Type 2 diabetes and obesity. It is especially disheartening to know that the self-serving meat industry has managed to manipulate a government publication in such a consequential way. Food and nutrition scientists around the country disagree with the guidelines post-political adulteration, particularly on the fact that the meat-reduction recommendation was omitted. It is absolutely shameful that the USDA allows politics to interfere and obstruct scientific evidence from reaching the public, particularly when obesity rates, diabetes and heart disease are so prevalent. It is my hope that by 2020 real science will control America’s Dietary Guidelines rather than self-involved food industry lobbyists.

Bond referendum funds state I

n Monday’s Technician, Mr. Chase McLamb’s piece titled “Vote against the bond” encouraged North Carolina residents to vote down the bond referendum that could bring $2 billion of funds to the state. Part of the raised money will go into public schools, including NC State.

Ziyi Mai If Mr. McLamb’s arguStaff Columnist: City upon a Hill ment is against the federal government issuing bonds, that is debatable depending on how the Federal Reserve interacts with the f iscal authority, the Treasury Department.

To understand the nature of government budget and deficit, one has to understand how government finances its budget over many years, rather than one or two years.

At the federal level, three main components of government revenue are from taxes, issuing government backed securities (bonds) and printing money. Mr. McLamb is right in a sense that bonds are actually a type of loan that requires interest payment for every period of time.

Simply put, it is like credit cards on which you have to pay back your personal debt each statement cycle. You might not want to make the full payment each time, but in that way you let your debt compound by the interest rate in the future periods.

You end up paying more, but you won’t have perpetual debt because you have to pay it off by the end of your last day.

Credit card companies won’t let you rest in peace unless you come clean with debit.

A brief difference between personal debt and federal government debt is that government debt can stay perpetually, given the conditions that the central bank prints money for the government to pay back its debt, at the cost of inflation or disinflation.

Of course, the government is also assumed to exist perpetually. But for a local government that is not able to control money supply, it is able to run a balanced budget even with issuing bonds.

Economists Thomas Sargent and Neil Wallace wrote a scholarly paper “Some unpleasant monetarist arithmetic” in 1981 to show that Milton Friedman’s notion of expanding money growth leading to inflation has to be under specific assumptions. In a simple model, they illustrated that a government without the power to issue money has to run a balanced budget in present value sense. The “balanced budget” here does not mean that government revenue should be exactly equal to government spending for each fiscal year. It is impossible for any

government or individual to do that.

All market participants might end up having savings or debt at a particular point of time. Sargent and Wallace’s point was that if the public has certain demand of government bonds and that demand has an upper bound, government without help from monetary authority cannot perpetually run debt. In some time, government is allowed to have debt, but in some other time, government must have surplus in order to balance the “lifetime” budget.

For state governments, their deficit has to be paid back by taxes eventually, with no federal government bailout. State governments might argue that they expect the economy will grow faster and generate more government revenue in the future to avoid a tax rate hike. Whether or not government spending can boost economic growth is an-

“As long as the public does not have infinite demand for government bonds, government debt as a temporary financing instrument is acceptable.” other story for another day.

But state governments naturally face more constraint when it comes to f isc a l def icit t ha n t he federa l gover nment. As long as the public does not have inf inite demand for government bonds, government debt as a temporary financing instrument is acceptable.

The demand of bonds mainly depends on people’s preference over consumption and the reputation of a state or municipal government. Governments with terrible credit might not raise enough funds because investors fear its default. People who want to save and postpone their consumption would be in favor of government bonds since it is easy to liquefy and gives higher interest payment than many saving accounts.

My final thought: It is not necessary to fear debt at the local level; the worst situation is similar to Detroit, Michigan, which went to bankruptcy, leading residents to move out of the state. If the raised funds could be really used in higher education, then that might essentially give the economy a boost since the benefit of higher education will not be revealed until many years after.

To the Super Bowl and back to class Matthew Shipman Correspondent

THE RADAR First Fridays are a time to see downtown Raleigh in full force. For the uninitiated, on the first Friday of each month, businesses downtown will stay open later, most art galleries offer free admittance and there is a variety of pop-up stands, food trucks, live bands and performers taking on the streets of Raleigh. If you’re in town for spring break, head downtown this Friday.

Here’s some staples to check out at any First Friday.

Contemporary Art Museum CAM is one of Raleigh’s foremost art galleries showcasing modern and experimental work. The museum usually has a DJ performing as well.

Right now, the museum is exhibiting “The Ease of Fiction,” a collection of four African artists and their experiences in the United States.

Hargett Street The section of Hargett Street between Fayetteville and Wilmington Streets is always packed with vendors, food and occasionally live bands. The street is blocked off from traffic, so you can roam the street to take in everything.

Also, it’s right in front of one of downtown’s best bars, The Raleigh Times.

House of Swank House of Swank is a company selling T-shirts out of the back of a truck billing itself as “the raddest NC-themed shirts and swag on the planet.” The novelty North Carolina tees range from cool designs to inside jokes only true Carolinians could get. The shirts can be rather expensive at $25, but they’re a great way to show North Carolina pride.

Fish Market You cannot get seafood here, but you can see the works of NC State’s College of Design (CoD, get it? fish) students on display. The exhibit brings a new group of students’ work to the gallery each month with a DJ spinning jams. The Fish Market is located in a basement at 133 Fayetteville St.

City Plaza City Plaza is the square at the end of Fayetteville Street with light instalments and a water fountain. The square is always blocked off from traffic and takes advantage of it as an event space for events like First Friday. Usually there is a live band and a few food trucks and beer taps in the area.

While many students were cheering on the Panthers in Super Bowl 50 from their couches, Chandalae Lanouette was cheering from the sidelines. On top of being a student at NC State, Lanouette cheers for the TopCats, t he C a rol i n a Pa nt he r s cheerleading team.

Lanouette, a sophomore studying English, first came to NC State a nd joined the dance team in 2008.

Two years later, she decided to move back home to Winston-Salem to help her mother with her dance studio. Now that the business is growing and running well, Lanouette has decided to return to school, but she still lives in Winston-Salem and has to wake up at 5:30 a.m. for her morning commute.

“You def initely have to want to be back in school,” Lanouette said.

Although it might seem unlikely that being an NFL cheerleader would ma ke someone want to come back to school, Lanouette said that being a part of the TopCats ultimately inspired her to go back to school. Being around professional sports sparked her interest in the entertainment side of the industry, so she came back to school to study sports ma na gement . Howe ver, Lanouette is still in the process of changing majors.

Lanouette said that being a part of the TopCats also taught her time management. Now, along with her excitement about being back in school, she is dedicated and committed to her goals.

“It’s cool to find something that wakes you up in the morning and makes you want to jump out of bed,” Lanouette said.

Lanouette said it was surreal being at the Super Bowl in front of so many fans and having the privilege of supporting the team, especially since it is only her second season with the TopCats.

Her favorite part was f inally being able to support the team at an away game and getting to travel to San Francisco, since the TopCats do not normally get to

travel with the team.

“We got to do a giant pep rally in San Francisco, which was really cool, to be all the way on the West Coast and to be completely su r rou nded by Pa nt her fans,” Lanouette said.

When asked about her favorite part of being a member of the TopCats, Lanouette said that for her it’s actually not about being in front of huge crowds or getting to be around the players. In fact, she generally doesn’t see all that much of the players. TopCats practice is held in a separate part of the stadium, and when both the cheerleaders and players are practicing, they are there to work rather than socialize.

Lanouette said she’s only been around Cam Newton once, and that was when she was one of the four TopCats selected to be in the Dan-

non Oikos commercial with the quarterback. If you look closely enough, you can see her in the opening scene of the commercial.

For Lanouette, the fancy things aren’t the best part of being a member of the TopCats. What is most rewarding for her is being able to participate in all of the community outreach programs the Panthers organization does.

“The way that the Panthers affect the community, and the way that they have each of us setup to interact with the community is really one-on-one and really rewarding,” Lanouette said.

“Initially, I started out doing this for myself, to prove that I could do it, but now it’s about what more I can do to help.”

On game days, Lanouette said that while she loves cheering on the team, her

favorite part of is being able to interact with the fans before the game.

Next fall, Lanouette said that she looks forward to the challenge of balancing school with the more strenuous regular season schedule. She is optimistic about the chances of another successful season for the Panthers football team.

She didn’t want to jinx anything by calling for a return to the Super Bowl, but she did say, “As a TopCat, I always have high hopes, and I definitely think that next season will be another one for the record books.”

Call for applicants

NC State Student Media student media is inviting all interested applicants to apply for the Editor positions at both the Agromeck, NC State’s yearbook, and Windhover, NC State’s student literary magazine, for 2016-2017.

Complete details on the application process can be found at studentmedia.ncsu.edu/web/minutes/Application_ memo_010516.pdf For these positions, hard-copy application packages will be due by 5 p.m. on Monday, March 14 at 304 Witherspoon Student Center. Applicants should carefully follow the directions outlined at the link above and be mindful that the deadline for these positions differs from those listed in the application memo and instructions. Packages submitted after this deadline will not be considered.

All applicants will be interviewed by members of Annual Publications Advisory Board, which includes students, faculty, staff and industry professionals. Those interviews will take place Wednesday, March 16 at 6 p.m. in Witherspoon 324 (the Student Media Conference Room.) Those interviews will be open to anyone interested in our publications, and there will be time set aside for questions and comments from the public before the advisory board members adjourn to executive session.

After considering each candidate, the advisory board will submit its recommendations to the full Student Media Board of Directors, which will make the final decision as to next year’s leaders. That meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 12, location tbd.

ents to counselors, make appointments, take initial assessments and ensure that clients have everything they need throughout the process. While a lot of responsibility falls on students, there are faculty members in the clinic during all sessions. This is just one part of a multi-layered system of supervision.

“It’s pretty much the epitome of experiential education,” Agronin said. “I’m a first-year master’s student, and I am already seeing clients. I am essentially their therapist, and that is huge.

Other programs just don’t offer something like that.”

CCERC st rives to approach clinical health with a feminist and multicultural point of view where the voices of both faculty and students are heard. It stresses the importance of cultural competence in the mental health field.

“Our students are trained to be culturally competent so t hat a ny client f rom whatever background and whatever personal identity will be fully welcomed and treated with respect and dignity,” Grimmett said.

“That’s not extra, that’s basic.”

In the long run, CCERC hopes to be a model for

c om mu n it y c ou n s el i ng that is culturally inclusive, promotes social justice and maintains the goal of getting people the help they need regardless of income.

“I think we’re helping to start a conversation,” Agronin said. “North Carolina is a state where it can be difficult to get health insurance and find good mental health coverage. Bringing awareness to that is one of the biggest things we’re bringing to the community right now.”

game, and garnered nine and six against the Hokies.

If the Pack advances, it will play No. 3 Syracuse (23-6, 13-3 ACC). Earlier this season, NC State lost 55-52 in the Hoops 4 Hope game. While the Orange’s fullcourt defense has a knack for forcing turnovers, the Wolfpack only lost the ball 12 times. However, it only shot 29.7 percent from the field, hindering its chances of winning.

For the Orange, junior guard Alexis

azdowski and No. 2 Ty Walz from Virginia Tech. Walz battled competitively against Gwiazdowski just a few weeks ago and was only the second opponent of the season to come within two points or less of defeating the two-time national champion.

The ACC Championship will be the Pack’s final action before it travels to New York as a potential favorite to bring home the national championship for the school.

Peterson leads the team with 14.5 points and 5.2 assists per game. She scored 16 against the Wolfpack earlier this season. Senior guard Brianna Butler is the team’s 3-point specialist, as she has made 103 on the year and is right behind Peterson in scoring with 14.0 points per game. Junior center Bria Day adds 10.4 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, and she put up 14 and 12 against the Pack Feb. 14.

NC State certainly has its hands full in its ACC Tournament matchups. While it will be tough, advancing to the semifinals for the second time in three years is certainly not out of reach.

The Wolfpack offense picked up in the bottom of the frame, as Shepard, sophomore shortstop Joe Dunand and Mendoza all had an RBI in the frame.

NC State had a t hree-run cushion going into the fourth, 4-1.

The pace of the game picked up following the bottom of the third. Both teams breezed through the next two innings without surrendering a run, with the Wolfpack still on top going into the bottom of the sixth inning.

Mendoza heated up again in the bottom of the sixth with a deep shot over the left field wall to add another run for NC State. The Wolfpack failed to score anything else in the inning and led 5-1 going into the seventh inning.

Following a scoreless top of the seventh inning from the Seahawks, junior first base-

Despite leaving Palmeiro stranded, the Wolfpack were hitting well with runners in scoring position, hitting 3 for 8 after the seventh, and the Wolfpack still led 5-1 going into the top of the eighth.

The Seahawks offense f inally showed signs of life in the top of the eighth inning.

After relievers Chris Williams and Evan Brabrand retired 12 of the last 14 batters, Feight doubled to drive in Stupienski for an RBI.

ahead. Neither team scored again, and the Wolfpack held on for the 5-2 win.

Mendoza was the offensive MVP for the Wolfpack in the game, going 4 for 4 with two singles, a double, one home run and two RBIs. He missed out on a cycle after failing to hit a triple in his final at bat.

Mendoza was thinking about it in his last plate appearance but understood the team win was more important than a personal achievement.

“It’s hard to take away that thought from your mind when that situation comes up,” Mendoza said. “But I was just focused on what the pitcher was giving me and that was it.”

Up next for the Wolfpack will be the Irish Classic, a weekend series that will see Niagara Purple Eagles, Alabama Crimson Tide and Bucknell Bison all come to Raleigh.

The weekend action gets started Friday at Doak Field against the Purple Eagles.

Wit h t he dua l sea son w rapped up for t he NC State wrestling team, the Wolfpack will look to continue its impressive season at the ACC Championships Sunday in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The seeding for the tourna ment was a nnounced Tuesday, with the Wolfpack taking four No. 1 seeds and two No. 2 seeds for its wrestlers.

The tournament will be a double elimination bracket, with one loss putting a wrestler in a consolation bracket for third-place finish in each weight class.

The four No. 1 seeds include sophomore Kevin Jack at 141 pounds, junior Max Rohskopf at 165 pounds and redshir t seniors Tommy Gantt and Nick Gwiazdowski at 157 and 285 pounds, respectively. The two No. 2 seeds for NC State are redshirt freshman Sean Fausz at 125 pounds and junior Pete Renda at 184 pounds.

The Wolfpack seems to have a solid starting lineup from top to bottom with redshirt freshman Jamal Morris, redshirt sophomore Beau Donahue, sophomore Nicky Hall and sophomore Michael Boykin, whom all started this season for the Pack. All are No. 4 seeds for their respective weight classes.

Rohskopf has been a defensive strategist on the

mats this season. In his four conference matches, the Ohio native has completely shut down his opponents, outscoring them 17-0, including one pin in his four matches against conference opponents.

The sneaky pick for NC State will be Renda. Renda’s toughest match will be against Zack Zavatsky, who defeated Renda when Virginia Tech’s 19-14 victory over the Pack in Raleigh helped secure the conference dual title for the Hokies.

Despite the loss, Renda turned it around in the final two duals of the season, defeating two top-11

opponents against No. 5 Missouri Tigers and the No. 2 Iowa Hawkeyes, both of which helped secure the school’s two biggest wins of the season.

One wrestler who may have trouble for the Wolfpack is Hall. Despite starting the season strong at 10-5, Hall has gone ice cold in his last few matches, losing three-straight conference matchups and sevenstraight matches overall.

Even though the slump mig ht be d isconcer t i ng for most wrestlers, there is still some optimism for the wrestler. Hall did compete well against his opponent in Iowa, only losing 4-2 in

a match that could’ve gone either way.

The main w rest lers to watch will be Gwiazdowski and Gantt, both of whom will be competing in the ACC tournament for the final time.

Gantt had a season to re me m b e r fol low i ng a redshirt season last year.

Pack rides hot bats past Seahawks at Doak Field Christian Candeloro Staff Writer

Joseph Ochoa Staff Writer

The No. 8 NC State Wolfpack baseball team continued its season opening offensive surge Wednesday as it defeated the UNCWilmington Seahawks 5-2 at Doak Field.

The Wolfpack (7-2) came into the game on an offensive tear, scoring five runs or more in seven-straight games, while the Seahawks (6-1) had scored 10 runs or more in all six of their games this season.

Starting on the mound for the Wolfpack was redshirt junior Karl Keglovits, who was starting in place of redshirt junior Johnny Piedmonte, who tweaked his back in practice during

a bullpen session.

“He told me he’s 50/50,” Avent said following the team’s win against UNCGreensboro Tuesday. “He tweaked something from his back during a bullpen session, and that changed everything we had planned for the Wilmington game.”

Keglovits got in an early jam in both the first and the second, putting runners in scoring position in both innings, but managed to escape to keep the game knotted up at zero.

Senior designated hitter Chance Shepard scored the first run from either team with a left field solo home run to get NC State on t he board. NC State failed to capitalize on the momentum, however, and the Wolfpack led 1-0 going into the third inning.

The homer by Shepard

was the senior’s fifth home run in just as many games.

Shepard remained humble about the recent praise he has been receiving from people, especia l ly f rom Avent, who has described him as one of the best power hitters he has ever seen.

“It’s big time praise, since he’s had lot of big power hitters here,” Shepard said.

The Seahawks finally capitalized on the Wolfpack’s mistakes in the top of the third inning. Following a double by f irst baseman Gavin Stupienski, catcher Nick Feight reached first on a fielding error by Wolfpack sophomore second baseman Evan Mendoza, allowing Stupienski to score. The Seahawks failed to score more runs, and the game remained tied at one apiece.

After a successful 2016 season, the NC State women’s basketball team heads into the ACC Tournament as the No. 6 seed.

After being riddled by injuries last season and ending up as the No. 10 seed in last year’s ACC Tournament, Wes Moore has the Wolfpack (1910, 10-6 ACC) going in the right direction in his third season as the head coach.

The play of its junior class has been vital to the team’s success this season.

Let’s start with Miah Spencer, who is the team’s first option as point guard. She leads the team in assists (5.0) and steals (1.6) per game, and is second on the team in points (13.8) and third in rebounds per game (4.6). Along with her production, her ball skills and offensive versatility helped earn her a spot on the All-ACC second-team.

Guard Dominique Wilson also made the All-ACC second-team. She leads the team in scoring with 15.6 points per game and 3-pointers made with 50, boasts an 83.6 free-throw percentage on the year and had just one less steal than Spencer did on the year.
