    Heels just can't get to the finish line

    http://www.newsobserver.com/2014/08/...ubba.html?rh=1

    BC: It's fatiguing. It's been fatiguing for the whole university for, I don't know, probably four years now. So I do think we're hoping to get through it. We have another (investigation) – the Wainstein investigation, report, sometime this fall. So we're hoping that each of these will be elements of our turning point. We've tried to get to the finish a line a number of times and haven't been able to get there successfully, so we're certainly hoping that this will be the one.

    UNC has not,been trying to get to the finish line. They have been trying to convince people that there was no race being run at all.

    Go Liberty!

    This is a small part of a large scandal that NEVER ends. It hasn't faded away for 4 years.

    I don't think UNC will disappoint

    Well there was another article the other day, but it didn't reveal much other than that UNC continues to stonewall.

    No. Now the lingering is like a festering wound. The "Carolina way" cannot be resurrected until a real inquiry has been conducted. Or a least until the pretense of a real inquiry is convincingly presented. Too many specific issues have to be explained for this just swept under the rug. There likely will be no real consequence to any investigation, but until something is resolved unc cannot lay claim to any moral high ground or academic superiority. unc will remain the punch line for the academic cheating jokes, the comparison for each new instance of academic malfeasance by college players.

    Agreed. I've really enjoyed recent conversations with unc fan friends, wherein I eventually counter their proclamations about whatever athletic or institutional matter with a statement along the lines of, "AND our players go to class!" They used to protest or obfuscate or justify, but now they just sheepishly (pun intended) shrug and the conversation pretty much dies.

    Check this out. Look carefully on Page 6:

    http://faccoun.unc.edu/wp-content/up...H2013-2014.pdf

    Some coaches are concerned that student-athletes at other institutions have fewer
    academic demands on them than students at UNC-CH.
    Opportunities.
    vi. Learn the facts regarding the requirements from other institutions and educate our
    coaches, but more importantly about the requirements at UNC.
    vii. Learn the facts regarding the missed class limits at other institutions and educate
    our coaches and communicate UNC-CH expectations regarding class attendance.

    That'd be "attention to detail" the Carolina Way.

    You can't spell "UNeduCated" without "UNC"

    Docking them is the hard part. Once you have them under sail, just follow the North Star.

    Too funny. I just had this image of a student asking where X Building is located and being told, "24 degrees west of the North Star, .15 fathoms from here." At least the Carolina students would flunk that exam at about the same rate (100%) that every other college student in America would.

    But really, having the ability to find your way around your workplace as a job qualification?
