UNC Extinguishes the Flames the Defense Sparked a 28-Point Run in the Third by Pat James Assistant Sports Editor Serving UNC students and the University community since 1893 Volume 122, Issue 63 dailytarheel.com Tuesday, September 2, 2014 FOOTBALL: UNC 56, LIBERTY 29 UNC extinguishes the Flames The defense sparked a 28-point run in the third By Pat James Assistant Sports Editor North Carolina linebacker Jeff Schoettmer assumed his position behind the defensive line. The 6-foot-2, 235-pound line- backer peered through his clear visor as Liberty quarterback Josh Woodrum awaited the snap in the third quarter of No. 23 UNC’s 56-29 rout of the Flames on Saturday. Lined up in the pistol formation, Woodrum received the snap and faked the handoff to his running back, while Schoettmer, with the sheer intention of blowing up the run, took two steps in before backpedaling into coverage. The Liberty tight end streaking up the middle of the field was Woodrum’s immediate target — and Schoettmer eased underneath him as Woodrum pulled back his arm to throw. With the ball sailing just above his head, Schoettmer sprung into mid- air to snag it and sprinted down the left sideline toward pay dirt with his DTH/CHRIS CONWAY golden mane flowing behind him. Malik Simmons (11) and Tim Scott celebrate after the defense forced a fumble and recovered possession of the football. UNC defeated Liberty 56-29. As he approached the pylon with seemingly little gas left in the tank, and saw great eye contact with the touchdowns the Tar Heels scored dur- Schoettmer said. “It just snowballed But when the Tar Heels came out he stumbled into the end zone for a quarterback.

  • The Virtual Bathroom Stall: Solving the Headache of Geo-Based Anonymous Message Applications on University Campuses
    \\jciprod01\productn\G\GWN\85-3\GWN305.txt unknown Seq: 1 7-JUL-17 8:22 NOTE The Virtual Bathroom Stall: Solving the Headache of Geo-Based Anonymous Message Applications on University Campuses Thomas C. Gallagher, Jr.* ABSTRACT Since its launch in late 2013, Yik Yak, a location-based application that permits users to post on local, virtual message boards targeted at university campuses, has become a massive headache for universities who are responsi- ble, under Department of Education guidelines, for maintaining a safe envi- ronment for their students. These message boards have become a breeding ground for personal attacks, sexual harassment, bigotry, and threats of mass violence, which have caused huge disruptions to educational environments. Yik Yak, however, is not responsible for the messages being posted; it is re- sponsible only for creating and placing virtual bulletin boards on college cam- puses, which the institutions have no ability to regulate. Through guidance letters issued over the last five years, the Department of Education has warned universities that they may be responsible for adequately responding to inci- dents and environments of harassment that occur on their campuses, regard- less of the medium through which the harassment occurs. Because Yik Yak’s Global Positioning System (“GPS”) located virtual message boards are no different than if someone walked onto the school grounds and placed a mes- sage board on the physical campus without the school’s permission, this Note proposes universities use the traditional property law action of trespass to ex- clude the Yik Yak application from campuses. * J.D., 2017, The George Washington University Law School.

Susan DuMont* Campus Safety v. Freedom of Speech: An Evaluation of University Responses to Problematic Speech on Anonymous Social Media Introduction Social media impacts how college students interact, and universities are struggling with the challenges presented by problematic speech on these sites. Platforms that encourage unidentified posting, such as Yik Yak and former gossip site JuicyCampus.com, significantly increase the potential for real harm through problematic speech, including hate speech, threats of violence, sexual harassment, and other forms of damaging, anonymous speech.1 University administrators are forced to evaluate options for responding to problematic speech on anonymous social media sites.2 Given the current culture of treating the internet as the “Wild West,” it is understandable why universities may choose to ignore the sites and why response has been limited.3 On the other end of © 2016 Susan DuMont * J.D., University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law, 2016; M.A., University of Delaware, 2010; B.A., Lake Forest College, 2007.

This book is the first of its kind to take stock of this emerging multi-disciplinary field by synthesizing what we know, identifying what we do not know and obstacles to future research, and charting a course for the future inquiry. Chapters by leading scholars cover major topics – from disinformation to hate speech to political advertising – and situate recent developments in the context of key policy questions. In addition, the book canvasses existing reform proposals in order to address widely perceived threats that social media poses to democracy. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core. Nathaniel Persily is the James B. McClatchy Professor of Law at Stanford Law School and the Co-Director of the Stanford Cyber Policy Center and Stanford Project on Democracy and the Internet. His scholarship focuses on the law and technology of democracy.

  • Social Media
    Social Media Social media has grown into an entrenched part of many middle school students’ daily lives. While the explosion of social media apps has many positive outcomes that increase communication and provide a mechanism for both young and old to feel connected, it has also negatively increased venues for teasing, ridicule and bullying to occur. Recently, we have noticed and heard from both students and parents that they are observing a higher level than usual of mean behavior occurring on social media. Student Council members have reported that mean comments tend to go in cycles usually linked to an issue or even that occurred outside of school. We wanted to share with parents what occurs here at school to educate our students and to address issues as they arise or impact the school learning environment. The topic of digital citizenship is taught in multiple courses. Social media is specifically covered in our health curriculum. Additionally, we began the year with a presentation from a representative, Miracruz Lora, from the Essex County District Attorney Kevin Burke’s office; in January the Tri- Town Council presented the film Screenagers followed by a panel discussion by local school and community members. Our 7th grade students also had an opportunity to view the movie and discuss the impacts of it in health class. We encourage any adult that views a mean situation occurring on their child’s social media to take a screen shot and report it to Mr. Monagle, our Assistant Principal. We can’t view much of what takes place on social media, so any evidence that allows us to view the comments is helpful to an investigation.

  • TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian
    Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian To learn more about The UCSD Guardian's coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, click here → TV Review: “The Great” May 25, 2020 Chloe Esser “The Great” doesn’t care about history, and neither should you. From creator of “The Favourite” Tony McNamara comes another historical retelling that slides right out of the conventions typically associated with the period drama genre into a terribly clever, terrifically dark piece of its own. “The Great” covers Russian empress Catherine the Great’s rise to power as a teenage girl — with some massive liberties. The show neatly balances the courtly decadence and subtle power plays of “The Favourite” with the blood, sex, and quick wit that’s to be expected in a world where all historical dramas must compete to be the next “Game of Thrones.” Nevertheless, it’s a well-maintained balance. Heavily stylized, effortlessly witty, and maybe a bit needlessly obscene, “The Great” is a show that knows exactly what it is, whether or not that has anything to do with actual history. The show begins with German teenager Catherine (Elle Fanning), who has come to Russia to marry a man she has never met –– Emperor Peter III (Nicholas Hoult). An idealist and intellectual caught up in the wave of Europe’s Enlightenment, Catherine has big plans for Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian her new home, and she is disappointed to find a court more concerned with hunting, sex, and booze than discussing the latest Voltaire.
