VOLUME 113, ISSUE 149 Hike talks create waves BOG committee OKs all requests BY KAVITA PILLAI STATE & NATIONAL EDITOR In an unsurprising move, the UNC-system Board of Governors took another step Thursday toward passing tuition and fee hike proposals for the 16 system schools. The BOG’s budget and finance committee approved tuition increase requests from all cam puses, though the action was not PERFECT SEASON RUNS FOUL No. 6 Maryland upends top-ranked Heels in O.T. BY JACOB KARABELL SENIOR WRITER Since North Carolina topped Duke on Jan. 29 to earn the No. 1 ranking, Coach Sylvia Hatchell has consistently warned her team that it will be taking every team’s best shot. On Thursday, No. 6 Maryland gave UNC that effort late in the second half sprinkled with some luck. The Terps, who trailed by 13 with eight minutes to play, stormed back and received an answer to Ashleigh Newman’s prayer at the buzzer to send the game into overtime. In the extra session Maryland scored on its first four possessions and held on to stun the Tar Heels 98-95, dethroning the last of college basketball's unbeatens. “I’ll tell you just a special win for this team,” said Maryland coach Brenda Frese. “It’s probably one of the proudest moments I’ve had as a coach to watch this team develop the way they have.” TVailing by four with 16 seconds left WOMEN'S BASKETBALL Maryland 98 UNC 95 ONE OVERTIME in the second half, Maryland (22-2,9-1 in the ACC) forced the ball inside to star forward Crystal Langhome, who deposited an easy layup to cut the deficit in half. After a timeout, La’Tangela Atkinson inbounded the ball to Ivory Latta, who was quickly fouled. Normally two easy points, the 88-percent foul shooter hit the first but clanged the second off the rim the biggest of the Tar Heels’ 14 missed free throws on the evening. “If we had made some foul shots, it would have been a different game,” Hatchell said. The upset-minded Terps capitalized on their sec ond chance, but barely.

Recently, it was announced that El Rodeo and Hectors res taurants are moving; East End Martini Bar is expanding; and a Mexican chain might move into the old Vis Art Video spot on West Franklin Street, which has sat vacant since summer 2004. “I think one of the most excit ing things about the downtown is that there’s always going to be some level of activity,” said Liz Parham, executive director of the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership.

UNC brass reconfigured Few details on college dean search BY BRIAN HUDSON NEWS EDITOR Call it the South Building shuffle. In less than two weeks the campus has been called on to find replacements for UNC’s top two academic positions. After Provost Robert Shelton announced last month that he would leave UNC to become president of the University of Arizona, administrators tapped Bernadette Gray-Little, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, in a closed search process. Now administrators must find a replacement for Gray-Little, who was announced Wednesday, but there’s no indication yet of how they will go about that process. If the process mirrors previ ous searches, an interim dean will be selected and administra tors will form a search commit tee likely overseen by one of the campus’s deans.
