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.

ACP Business Pacemaker Application
ACP Business Pacemaker Application AUGUST 17, 2020 SECTION 1: FIVE FACTORS FOR SUCCESS STRATEGIC FOCUS Leadership, management planning and innovation Describe in detail how your organization followed its mission statement in developing your strategic plans for the year. 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. SECTION 1 Describe in detail how your organization users leadership training to prepare top student leaders for their positions and department management. -
North Carolina Books
EileenNorth McGrath, compilerCarolina Books End of Eden: Writings of an Environmental Activist Thomas Rain Crowe. Nicholasville, KY: Wind Publications, 2008. 171 pp. $16.00. ISBN 978-1-893239-80-7. Elise Anderson, Wake Forest University n western North Carolina, communities hundreds of years old are now under assault. Population growth exceeds the carrying capacity of the land and triggers permanent environmental degradation, while the influx of newcomers swamps local traditions, values, and Iadaptations to the surrounding ecosystems. Sound bad? It is, but End of Eden offers hope and illustrates a way to communicate effectively about the very real dangers that threaten the communities, human and natural, of the mountains of North Carolina. A poet and environmentalist, Thomas Rain Crowe is the author of twenty books, including Zoro: My Life in the Appalachian Woods and Drunk on the Wine of the Beloved: 100 Poems of Hafiz. His literary archives have been purchased by Duke University. The topics Crowe addresses in End of Eden are as varied as the mountains he calls home. Throughout the volume, artwork by Robert Johnson illustrates the beauty and biodiversity of western North Carolina. The first of the book’s three sections presents broader perspectives on the ecosystems, history, and cultures of the mountains. The second, a collection of articles and editorials, focuses on local issues and political responses. Crowe concludes with columns from the Smoky Mountain News that capture the vibrancy and promise of the Jackson County Farmer’s Market. The farmers market is one traditional organization that is getting much attention now as a sustainable solution to current economic and environmental problems. -

Here are some easy getaways you should consider if you're looking to make a golf trip or just looking for a new place to play. -THE SANDHILLS TOUR Pinehurst No. 2: One of the world's most famous layouts recently reopened following an extensive restoration project by Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore, and the results are spectacular. There's a reason the 2014 men's and women's U.S. Opens are heading here. It's that good. www.pinehurst.com. Pine Needles and Mid Pines: They're situated across the street from each other and provide one of the most enjoyable and challenging one-two punches in golf. It's golf the way it should be played. www.pineneedles-midpines.com. Tobacco Road: If you want something out of the ordinary, this is it. Designed by the late Mike Strantz, Tobacco Road is a thrill to look at and just as much fun to play. Annually ranks among the most popular courses in the state. www.tobaccoroadgolf.com Southern Pines Golf Club: It's not fancy or as famous as some others, but it's a Donald Ross original that showcases the best in Sandhills golf.
