Senior Julian Wooten is comforted after witnessing the attack on the Pit in which nine students were struck by a rented Jeep driven by former UNC student
Mohammad Taheri-Azar just after noon on March 3. Wooten, who was handing out fliers when the vehicle turned the comer, narrowly avoided injury.

I YEAR IN REVIEW I
When the ball dropped on 2007, it signaled the end to a year painted
by events that threatened the community and redefined it.
In March, an attack on the Pit made national news and rattled the notion
of a campus immune from danger.
In April, a decades-old Chapel Hill tradition came to a close as shots fired on Franklin
Street spelled the end of Apple Chill.
The year saw high schools in Chapel Hill and Hillsborough under siege by teenagers
wielding guns.
But tragic as those events were, they pushed discussion and forced many to reevaluate
where the community stands.
And new faces were a part of those talks. Orange County and Chapel Hill hired new
managers after its stalwarts retired. Chancellor James Moeser’s cabinet also lost several key
contributors including Provost Robert Shelton. Molly Broad made way for Erskine Bowles
in the UNC-system president’s office.
Through it all 2006 will be remembered for events etched in our minds both on the day
they shocked us and the days spent rationalizing their progression.
