Longest said dorm storming and on-the-ground volunteer work are the strategies that will carry the most weight with students. Fairley said she will have staffers stationed all across campus. “I’m grateful to have a dedicated and enthusiastic campaign staff,” she said. Warche Downing said he plans to rely heavily on dorm storming and word of mouth to gain signatures. “We want to get at least 2,000,” he said. Candidates must collect 1,250 original signatures by Jan. 31 at 5 p.m. to appear on the ballot. dth file/stephen mitchell See SBP, Page 4 Coach Sylvia Hatchell bans women’s team’s Twitter use basketball coach saw her team’s court distractions: Twitter. tion,” Hatchell said, “And they The resulting NCAA investiga- letter to the NCAA’s notice of The ban brings student steady ascent up the national “We just need to focus more need confidence.

County’s landfill reaches capacity — and tonight, he’ll share his views with Orange County Commissioners. The Orange County Board of Commissioners will meet today to discuss the future of the Orange County landfill, which could reach capacity between 2013 wild about reading and 2017, forcing it to close. Chilton, who has proposed building a new waste transfer station in Chapel Hill, said he hopes the board will reconsider the plan because it would take more fuel to ship waste to Durham, and because the Durham station does not require as many materials to be recycled. While Orange County bans corrugated cardboard and scrap metal from its landfill, the Durham transfer station does not. Gayle Wilson, Orange County solid waste management director, said incoming waste at the Orange County landfill is inspected to determine if it contains banned materials, but the county would no longer control these inspections if waste is sent to Durham. “Waste would not be scrutinized to verify if the waste was being properly managed according to Orange County’s standards,” he said. “I would suspect that it is possible less waste would be recycled or diverted from the waste stream.” Chilton said Orange County was the first county in North Carolina to reach mandated waste reduction goals, and switching to the Durham station would undo the progress. Though Durham’s plant doesn’t require as many materials to be separated, Chris Marriott, solid waste disposal manager at the City of Durham, said the transfer station adheres to North Carolina’s laws on waste. “The City of Durham already encourages the recycling of cardboard and scrap metal at its transfer station,” Marriott said in an email. Una Sammon, co-chairwoman of Students Working for Environmental Action and Transformation at UNC’s Campus Y, dth/melissa key said in light of the different trash policies, she thinks transferring waste to Durham is Eric Montross, former UNC and NBA basketball player, reads to children at Read-a-thon Night at Frank Porter Graham Elementary School on Wednesday. not a long-term solution for Orange County. “It’s a problem that needs a bigger solu- tion, and there isn’t one that people are will- Frank Porter Graham Elementary holds Read-a-thon ing to adopt,” she said.
