Shr Sally i£ar Brrl UNC to launch men’s community BY CHIARA AUSTIN STAfF WRITER After establishing a women’s learning community at UNC last semester, the Department of Housing and Residential Education plans to provide the same program for male residents beginning in fall 2008. Men at Carolina, a learning community specifically for men on campus, will be located on the third floor of Cobb Residence Hall and will house between 20 and 30 residents. Activities for M@C —as the community will be called will include guest speakers, group dis cussions and field trips. “The idea came from the wom en's program that was already in existence and the fact that men are graduating at a lower rate than females." said Tom Hamilton. Cobb community' director. One of the goals of M@C is to give men the opportunity to address issues of masculinity and to discuss what it means to be a man in society and at UNC, while forming friend ships and honing leadership skills. “We have had a number of stu v.

One of those students is junior Chris Williams, a member of the M@C advisory board and a resi dent adviser in Morrison Residence Hall. “I thought the M@C was some thing the Carolina community really needs," Williams said. Hamilton said the M@C board of advisers wants to proside oppor tunities for men to form a support system for other men on campus in terms of academic leadership. “It connects them to academics, as well as leadership development and social life in that regard." said Dei Allard, an assistant director of the housing department. The Women’s Experiences, Learning and Leadership program only recently became a part of the Kenan Community and is the main inspiration for the planned men’s learning community. Jarrod Cruz, former Craige com munity director and a major propo nent of M@C, handed the project over to Hamilton upon leasing the Craige community last semester. Williams said the advisory board probably will begin recruiting men within the next few weeks. “If you’re a man and you’re interested in facing issues that all men face together and you’re interested in finding a community that addresses these issues, then I think the M@C is an excellent was te really immerse yourself" Contact the University Editor at udesk@unc.edu.

Freshman Dylan Hubbard was confident about his chances of being reclassified as an N.C. resident after submitting his application Monday. “Overall, it’s been really easy. It sucks because some people try to cheat the system, and it puts those who aren’t in a bad place," said Hubbard, who moved to North Carolina in September 2006. “But I understand where they’re aiming from and why they need to do this." Students first apply for residen cy in their original application for acceptance into the University. There are several different forms depending on the length of resi dency within North Carolina. Life-long residents fill out a brief residency form, while students who haw lived in the state for five or more years have a two-page form. A four-page residency form is for students from other states and those who have lived in North Carolina for a short time. | Check out: for our daily flavors!! ! the YOGURT. ) ! 1 pump i I 106 W.

Fortune Small Business Magazine named the Kenan- Flagler Business School one of the top 25 schools in the country for entrepreneurship and one of the best schools in America for double majors, noting the school's incor poration of the artistic and com mercial fields. The magazine also recognized the school as one of the best for entrepreneurs seeking a graduate degree. Vernon and Hohn said they plan to wait until they get a sense of the students’ interests before selecting books and guest speakers. “I think that the exciting thing about this is that we’re in the pro cess of defining it," Hohn said. “It's not like we're teaching a Shakespeare course. We have expe rience to draw on. but it's not like there is a huge amount of resources to go to." Contact the Features Editor atfeatures @ unc.edu. 5
