Stye Hotly (Tar Mpri ADDITIONS From Page 3 Some additional academic buildings proposed by the Development Plan include a global and international stud ies center, a building for the Institute for the Arts and Humanities and an addi tion to the School of Public Health. Research There are also a number of research facilities planned as part of the Development Plan, most of which serve to enhance the School of Medicine. The proposed S6B million genetic medicine building, to be built on Mason Farm Road, will serve exclusively as a research facility. Construction is pro jected to start in July 2003 and end in January 2006. Officials say the new research centers will provide the medical school with state-of-the-art science facilities. The new 225,000 square foot build ing will be constructed east of the Environmental Protection Agency building in the research block of cam pus now occupied by grounds services and housing support offices. “We’re hoping this will be a cutting edge research building and will attract the nation’s top researchers to the cam pus,” said Masaya Konishi, design man ager of the genetic medicine building. Another proposed addition for the medical school is the medical biomolec ular research building, an eight-story research facility that will be built along South Columbia Street, next to the exist ing Taylor Hall. Construction for the research building began in December 2000 and should end in May 2003. The new building will offer research laboratories and support spaces, includ ing spaces for animal research subjects. A third proposed addition is the bioinformatics building, a six-story building that will be constructed on West Drive at the current site of the Health Affairs parking deck. Construction for the bioinformatics building began in February 2001 and is projected to end in December 2002. The new building will provide facili ties for UNC faculty and staff to conduct dry research activities. Additional features include a 125-seat lecture hall, food ser vice facility and a University mail room. Student Life Physical changes to the campus land scape also will affect student life, espe cially on South Campus. One of the key projects is the Ramshead Center, a multi-purpose complex that will be built between Kenan Field House and the George Watts Hill Alumni Center. Construction for the $56 million cen ter is projected to begin in June 2002 and end in October 2004. The Ramshead Center complex will incorporate a 700-space parking deck with permit and hourly parking. An outdoor plaza on the roof level of the parking deck will provide pedestrian bridges connecting the walkways between Stadium Drive and Manning Drive. “(The Ramshead Center) is meant to tie the new student housing in South Campus with the academic facilities in North Campus,” said Konishi, also the design manager of the Ramshead Center. Other features of the center include a student dining facility with seven separate eateries, a bookstore, an express grocery store and a student recreation center. The student recreation center will contain three full-length basketball courts, a fitness room, a climbing wall and a juice bar. Other projects planned for South Campus might not have as much of a direct effect on student life. The plan proposes an addition to the Mason Farm Ambulatory Care Service. The ambulatory center, located on Mason Farm Road, currently provides services for clinical patients, surgery and pediatrics. An addition to the ambulatory center will provide expand ed space for the musculoskeletal center. “The number of visits have been growing and we were beginning to run put of space for expanding clinical ser vices,” said Karen McCall, vice president of public affairs for UNC Health Care. The Changing Face As the proposed building projects are implemented, heavy construction in various parts of campus already has resulted in a transformation of the phys ical landscape. “It’s always hard during the con struction process, especially with a lot of it going on right now,” said Linda Convissor, UNC local relations coordi nator. But University officials said they hope the new additions will bring positive changes that will ultimately fulfill the goals of the Development and Master plans. Officials are confident that new aca demic and research buildings will pro vide improved educational facilities for students and faculty, and other projects will help improve the quality of life for people on campus. “Once the landscape is completed, many of these projects will actually help fix and improve the way the campus functions, especially with pedestrian traf fic,” Convissor said. “There will be a lot more connections between North and South campus, and I think these connec tions will help bring people together.” The City Editor can be reached at citydesk@unc.edu.

But she also said that there is a lot of money passed under the table to influence voting.

Wright said the only nationally promi nent Democrats he has spoken with about the redistricting process were Democratic members of the state’s congressional del egation.

McMahan said the Republican map closely resembles the district plan. But North Carolina has had to contend with several lawsuits after drawing district lines a decade ago because of its 12th District, which stretches along Interstate 85 from Charlotte to Greensboro. He said the caucus hopes the map will receive bipartisan support in the House. “If it does receive bipartisan sup port, we think it will help avoid very expensive litigation that North Carolina has endured in the 19905.” The State & National Editor can be reached at stntdesk@unc.edu. Nation Constant Warnings Worry Leaders The Associated Press WASHINGTON - The Bush admin istration fended off congressional criti cism Tuesday that its new terrorism alert was causing unnecessary anxiety among already jittery Americans.

Ridge said he, too, was concerned by that possibility but that the warning issued Monday was based on informa tion from “multiple sources and they were credible sources” and they sug gested an attack was imminent “in the next week or so.” “We’re dealing with shadow soldiers, a shadow enemy,” and the alert “reinforced the notion that homeland security is going to be everybody’s job,” he said. “I’m afraid we’ve just got to keep the highest 26 Page number 27 Gets older 28 Male parent 29 Commodities figure 31 Bitter laxative drug 34 Reveal 36 New England and New York 38 Hockey site assistant 4 Victoria Cross, for instance 5 Likes better 6 Stonehenge location 7 Pretty soon 8 Phoebe and Hank 9 Prepare the snare 10 Commercial pieces 11 Hockey's "sin bin" 12 Pan-fry 13 Perimeters 21 For shame! 22 Noon on a sun dial 1 2 3 p p p p p 112 113 Ha 21 2^ ■■24 HHIT 26 27 26 ~ Bn 36 ■■3? * 39 it w~~~ Ln, 52 _ 62 "" ■■ MB Wednesday, October 31, 2001 possible level alert for a long, long time." Meanwhile, FBI agents sought clues in the expanding anthrax case. They retraced the steps of an infected New York hospital worker and tested her home and workplace. Authorities were perplexed how some one who didn’t work for the Postal Service or the news media became infected. “It doesn’t fit the pattern," said Dr. Steven Ostroff of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The hospital employee worked in the stockroom and may have come into contact with the hospital’s mail. (C)2001 Tnbune Media Services.
