Sa% ®ar Hl County could adopt goals to ensure justice Identifies 5 types of social justice BY JOE WOODRUFF STAFF WRITER The Orange County Board of Commissioners will consider becom ing one of the first in the nation to adopt a set of guidelines ensuring fairness consideration in decisions. The board will review the final draft of a proposed social justice goal at its meeting tonight. The five page report, written by the Orange County Human Relations Commission, is intended to formalize the principles that the board aims to uphold. “These principles need to be highlighted and celebrated,” Chairman Barry Jacobs said. The document divides social jus tice into sue categories that the board should consider: elimination of oppression, economic self-sufficiency, safe communities, environmental jus tice, civic participation and other. It also includes specific recom mendations for promoting social justice, including extending coun ty civil rights ordinances to pro tect people against discrimination based on sexual orientation and expanding public transportation. Currently there are no articulat ed standards for ensuring justice in board decisions. The guidelines will serve as a measuring stick to which the public can hold commissioners accountable. If the social justice goal is adopt ed, Orange County would be one of few in the nation with a set of fixed social justice guidelines. “We would certainly be the first county in North Carolina to have social justice goals,” Commissioner Mike Nelson said. The board first asked the Human Relations Commission to formulate the goal in 2004. A first draft was presented to the board at a February work session. The county manager recom mended that the goal be adopted in spring 0f2009, said Shoshannah Smith, director of Human Rights and Relations for the county. Aspects of the goal have already been considered by the board as part of the process for locating a proposed m l| i|K 967-8665 Till TI23E.

In March 2007, the board decid ed to place the transfer station at the location of the current landfill, at Eubanks Road. After opposition from residents of the mostly black community, where the landfill has been located since 1972, the commissioners reopened the search in Nov. 2007. In September of this year, the board adopted environmental justice as one of its criteria in the search for the waste transfer site. Stan Cheren, communications chair of the Rogers-Eubanks Coalition to End Environmental Racism, said a set of social justice guidelines would have done little to benefit the community residents. “I don’t think it would have had a major difference,” he said. But others said fixed social jus tice criteria would have saved resi dents great amounts of trouble. “I think that that’s an excellent thing,” said Yonni Chapman, of the coalition and local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. “It changes the culture in that social justice is recognized as a community concern. “If they had been in place, it would have meant the original deci sion to site the waste transfer sta tion would never have happened.” Contact the City Editor at citydesk@unc.edu.

First downs: 146. Of those, 102 rushing. Offensive yards: 3,159. Those were 2,181 rushing. Not to mention 22 of 28 touch downs rushing. Johnson is known for his attacks on the ground and a talented option offense, and UNC coach Butch Davis knows he’ll see a run offense and then some this weekend. “Georgia Tech is more danger ous than a traditional wishbone team,” Davis said, noting that Tech uses two wide receivers on top of the three rushers in the backfield. “With what Georgia Tech’s doing, they have two guys in the slot that are in a dangerous position to get out for passes. “You’re always very susceptible to the play-action pass.” Johnson has become famous for his triple-option wishbone, a rush offense that has led his teams to No. 1 in the FBS in rushing for three straight years, 2005-07- Johnson’s former team, the United States Naval Academy, is still atop the nation, thanks to a new head coach who had been ingrained in his system. And it didn’t take Johnson long to crack the Top 10 with Georgia Tech as well, currently at No. 8. “Georgia Tech is a very, very good football team,” Davis said. “Paul’s done a great job with the team.” Johnson’s three-back system means his backs are also blockers. “Marcus (Wright) had a nice run on Saturday, but the thing that impressed me the most was his blocking,” Johnson said. “He Regal, cinemas TIMBERLYNE 6 933 8600 Weaver Dairy at Airport Rd. 300-FANDANGOI.74I?

Tech B-Back Jonathan Dwyer is the most talented of Johnson's options in the backfield. they’re expecting. “If you’re conscious of it, then you are trying to get the ball out,” he said. “Those are good turnovers. To me, any turnover is a good turn over, but all three of those against Florida State were forced.” Against the Seminoles, Johnson’s Georgia Tech defense recovered three turnovers and his offense scored 21 points in less than five minutes en route to a 31-28 win —a game in which Tech’s two quarter backs attempted six total passes.

If he and his staff can succeed, they will have a much better shot at stopping any of the options Johnson throws at them. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.
