  • Mccorkle PLACE
    CHAPTER EIGHT: McCORKLE PLACE McCorkle Place is said to be the most densely memorialized piece of real estate in North Carolina.501 On the University’s symbolic front lawn, there are almost a dozen monuments and memorials fundamental to the University’s lore and traditions, but only two monuments within the space have determined the role of McCorkle Place as a space for racial justice movements.502 The Unsung Founders Memorial and the University’s Confederate Monument were erected on the oldest quad of the campus almost a century apart for dramatically different memorial purposes. The former honors the enslaved and freed Black persons who “helped build” the University, while the latter commemorated, until its toppling in August 2018, “the sons of the University who entered the war of 1861-65.”503 Separated by only a few dozen yards, the physical distinctions between the two monuments were, before the Confederate Monument was toppled, quite striking.

Our mission is to train students fully and deeply on all aspects of running a news organization and to serve the UNC community with news and information that they need. To achieve this mission, we as an organization have established four overarching goals that serve as the basis of DTH Media Co.’s strategic plans for the year, which include: becoming an indispensable, trusted guide to UNC and life for students; growing consumer and institutional revenue, diversifying and strengthening our business-to-business revenue; and shifting to audience-centric practices across the organization. Our strategic plans for the year fell under the overall progression toward these goals, and in turn, our mission. Some of those strategic plans included: increasing return visits and pages per visit by the 18 to 24 year-old demographic; increasing overall fundraising revenue, applying for grants and hiring a fundraising and donor engagement specialist to assist with these efforts; moving into a consultative selling model within our 1893 Brand Studio and advertising departments; and developing diverse news products beyond solely print news. These plans were created to ensure the progression of a sustainable news organization that can both serve the UNC community and teach students how to produce news in ways that remain both relevant and helpful to the consumer.

While some say Silent Sam should be protected because of its artistic value, others argue that it makes a negative political statement. Additional controversial art pieces add to the debate over what public art has meant in the past and what it will look like going forward at UNC. The changing nature of pub- lic art UNC has added several statues and monuments since Silent Sam’s install- ment in 1913, including a ram statue meant to honor student athletes and the Unsung Founders Memorial, a table dedicated to “the people of color bound and free who helped build the Carolina that we cherish today.” Cary Levine, an associate professor of contemporary art, said the public art of recent years is becoming more likely to represent broader communi- ties of people and social movements, rather than specific figures. “I think that in terms of our ideas of what we’re memorializing, we’ve really moved past the idea of the great individual, the genius — and often those people are the great white male genius — as the epito- me of some kind of achievement, or DTH/HALEY HODGES some kind of victory, or some kind of accomplishment,” Levine said.

    “HOW DEEP THE ROOTS ARE”: CULTURAL AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION OF NORTHSIDE, CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA by Victoria G. Hensley A Thesis Submitted for Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts in History Middle Tennessee State University May 2018 Thesis Committee: Dr. Carroll Van West, Chair Dr. Louis Kyriakoudes ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would not have been able to conduct and complete this project without the help and encouragement of my thesis committee. I owe much gratitude and thanks to my advisor and thesis director, Dr. Carroll Van West, for consistently challenging and supporting me throughout my two years as a master’s student at MTSU. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Louis Kyriakoudes, who came on to this project ready to lend his support and talk all things Chapel Hill. I thank you both for being patient with me as I worked through this thesis and for helping me to become a better preservationist and historian. There are so many others I would like to thank for helping me discover historic preservation, introducing me to MTSU, and for supporting me throughout my education. To my family, thank you for always listening and never questioning what I wanted to do. To my mentors from North Carolina, I owe so much of who I am today as a preservationist to y’all. I would also like to thank two friends, Christine and Philip, for constantly being my rocks throughout school. I cannot express how much your support, whether in the form of proof reading papers, listening to my rambles about gentrification, or going on fieldwork with me in the middle of December, has meant.
