I have thought this would happen,”
Bonnie said. “We’ve been blessed,
and God has favored us.”
All nine Sawyer children, original-
ly from Camden — about 200 miles
northeast of Chapel Hill — received
major scholarships to UNC-system
schools. Seven have attended UNC.
Of those seven, two received
Morehead-Cain Scholarships, one
received the Robertson Scholarship
and two received the Pogue
Scholarship. The other two chil-
dren attended Elizabeth City State
University on full scholarships.
“You can do anything if you
want,” said Crystal Sawyer, 24, who
graduated from UNC on a partial
scholarship in 2007. “Just because
you’re from a large family doesn’t
mean you have to settle for less.”
Bonnie and Connie Jr., both
from nine-child families them-
selves, raised their children with
three fundamental lessons: work
hard, be yourself and most impor-
tantly, keep God first.
“Their faith that it would work
out got us here,” said Raymond
Sawyer, the youngest Sawyer child
and a freshman Morehead-Cain
scholar at UNC. “And our faith that
we could accomplish it.”
But other than that, Bonnie and
Six of Connie Sawyer III’s siblings have followed his path to UNC. “He
exposed us to Carolina,” younger brother Raymond Sawyer said.
Connie Jr., who said they have vis-
ited UNC more than 300 times,
said they never pushed their chil-
dren more than any other good
parents to succeed academically.
“I want them to pursue what-
ever their dream is,” Bonnie said.
“Whatever your dream is, pursue
that, and I’m good.”
Connie Sawyer III, 31, was the
first to attend UNC. He chose the
school for the very reason that
helped get him there — his family.
“I wanted Raymond to know
who I was,” he said. Connie III said
he wanted to stay close to his then-
toddler brother.
Younger siblings said Connie
III’s decision to attend UNC was a
major influence on their own deci-
sion. But Portia Parker, 26, did not

even apply to UNC.
“I had three brothers who had
already been there,” said Parker, who
goes by her married name. “I felt like
I had already been there enough.”
Karen Sawyer, unrelated to the
family, taught all nine Sawyer chil-
dren in high school and said they
inspire those around them.
“I think when you deal with
people that are as exceptional as
they are, it makes you want to be a
better person,” she said.
With this family success came
pressures for the younger Sawyer chil-
dren. But all have been involved with
different activities at UNC to main-
tain their individuality. Raymond

STREB combines athletics,
technology in performance
By laney tipton
Staff Writer
Combining extreme sports, dance and technology,
STREB Extreme Action Company’s “BRAVE” promises
to be something much different than you’ve ever seen.
STREB will be showcasing its multidimensional work
tonight and Saturday in Memorial Hall as part of the
Carolina Performing Arts series.
“Expect the unexpected,” said Reed Colver, the director
of campus and community engagement.
Elizabeth Streb, once called the “Evel Knievel of
dance,” is a self-proclaimed “action artist.” Streb founded
the extreme action company in 1985.
She describes her choreography as “PopAction,” — a com-
bination of dance, athletics, boxing and other disciplines.
The touring company of STREB tests the limits of the
human body, incorporating uncommon objects such as
cinder blocks and steel beams into routines.
“I think at the end of the day, Elizabeth is trying to
demonstrate the incredible potential of the human
body, its ability to be resilient and flexible and to show

Time: 8 p.m. tonight and Saturday

DTH ONLINE: Watch a video of a master class taught by
STREB artists Thursday at dailytarheel.com/multimedia.
This performance is part of the Collaborations:
Humanities, Arts & Technology festival, a project by the
Institute for the Arts and Humanities. The festival show-
cases existing collaborations of technology and the human-
ities and the way technologies are transforming the arts.
STREB’s newest piece, “BRAVE,” fits well with the tech-
nology-meets-arts theme of the festival. Streb worked with
the media labs at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
to incorporate robotics and technology in the piece.
“Wait till you see the ‘whizzing gizmo,’” Kang wrote in
an e-mail.
“BRAVE” not only keeps the performers leaping, spinning
and soaring, but the structures around, under and over them
will be in motion as well, according to the Web site.

UNC last Friday. Bowles said in the statement.
Board Chairwoman Hannah
Gage said that Bowles was one of the most qualified
people she could think of for the position.
“A strong theme of the past few years has been get-
ting our own fiscal house in order,” she wrote in an
e-mail. “If the federal deficit continues to grow and
the nation’s economic condition is in question, none
of our work will matter.”
The 18-member National Commission on Fiscal
Responsibility and Reform must make a set of rec-
ommendations to the U.S. Congress by Dec. 1, 2010,
for substantially reducing the deficit by 2015, accord-
ing to a statement released by the White House.
The nonpartisan basis of the commission and his
ability to finish his work for the UNC system were cru-
cial to his decision to accept the appointment, Bowles
said in the statement.
“Restoring our nation’s fiscal health is an absolute
necessity. You have heard me say many times that if
we do not get our national budget under control, our
nation is in grave danger of becoming a second-rate
power,” he said in the statement.

‘Ambitious’ lineup
mixes new, old works
By mark sabb
Staff Writer
Continuing its critically acclaimed
2009-10 season, the PlayMakers
Repertory Company has unveiled its
William Shakespeare’s “As You Like It.”
There is a little something for every-
drama “Fences” by August Wilson to
the family comedy “Shipwrecked! An
Entertainment” by Donald Margulies.
“In selecting next year’s list of plays
we pushed ourselves with challenges,”
said Joseph Haj, the artistic director of
PlayMakers. “We couldn’t have dreamt of
a more ambitious season.”
PlayMakers is welcoming change, as
next season’s list of plays is greatly dif-
ferent from the current season’s lineup.
“Next season’s plays are just as grand
in scope as far as the amount of work,
but I think this season has a lot more
social awareness,” said Marianne Miller,
a graduate student and actress for
PlayMakers.
Derrick Ledbetter, a graduate student
and PlayMakers actor, described the next
set of plays as more varied, ambitious and
provocative.
“Theater is lacking ambition lately,
so it is refreshing to see a local company
willing to be so ambitious, take so many
chances and try new things,” he said.

Banks have been more reluctant to loan to con-
tractors because of the downturn in the housing
market, forcing contractors to shift to renovations,
Hinshaw said.
“Banks have tightened so much, they’re looking at
all kinds of criteria,” Hinshaw said. Few contractors
can meet the stricter criteria, he said.
Although most contractors said renovations are
up, it’s not enough to offset the business lost from a
drop in new home building.
“I have never seen business as bad as it is now,”
said Hal Lebowitz, owner of Precision Painting &
Remodeling, Inc.
“In the last two years or so, it’s been a continuous
downhill spiral.”

OT win snaps streak
Guard rallies UNC
past Wake Forest
By Anna Kim
Senior Writer
In the midst of her team’s lon-
gest losing streak since 2000,
coach Sylvia Hatchell thought she
had ran out of solutions.
She approached her strug-
gling veteran point guard Cetera
DeGraffenreid with a proposition.
Don’t worry about leadership any-
more. Just play like you used to.
In a 65-59 overtime win against
Wake Forest, the veteran point
guard proved she could do both.
DeGraffenreid captained a late
rally and a valiant overtime effort
against the Demon Deacons (15-
11, 6-6) with a team-leading 15
points along with nine rebounds,
six assists and no turnovers.
With the win, UNC (17-8, 5-6)
snapped a five-game losing streak,
including its most recent tough dou-
ble-overtime loss against Virginia.
Coming into the game, the
Tar Heels had fallen out of the
Associated Press Top 25 poll —
ending a 163-week streak that
began in 2001.
But after rallying from an early
16-point deficit, North Carolina
showed that it would begin its
crawl back.
“It feels good to win,” Hatchell
said. “I’m really proud of the team
for coming back the way they did.”
With 7.1 seconds remaining in
regulation, DeGraffenreid drove
into the lane as she had done so
many times before.
She crossed over her defender
and delivered a layup to tie the

game at 56-56 and send the game
into overtime.
In overtime, the Tar Heels held
the Demon Deacons to just three
points and extended their lead with
four key buckets from freshman
Cierra Robertson-Warren.
“I knew she could do it,” Hatchell
said. “I knew she could do it. She’s
taking ownership of this team, and
that’s what we need her to do.”
In the beginning of the game,
it looked as if the Tar Heels would
not be so lucky.
Wake Forest got off to a hot start
led by the efforts of Secily Ray, who
had 15 first-half points.
With 11:52 remaining in the first
half, Wake Forest led 24-14 while
shooting a smoldering 61 percent
from the field. Bolstered by Ray’s
prolific first-half performance, the
Demon Deacons entered halftime
trailing 33-25.
But as they began to cool off,
UNC began to take over.
After struggling as Wake Forest
employed double teams in the post,
North Carolina made halftime
adjustments that proved effective.

the second half,” Hatchell said. “That

made it more difficult for them when
they would double down low.”
With 13:39 remaining,
DeGraffenreid drained a three-
pointer to rally within seven points
of Wake Forest.
The shot initiated an offensive
takeover by the veteran guard.
For the next seven minutes,
DeGraffenreid scored 11 of the Tar
Heels’ 13 points.
Finally, with 7:05 remaining in
the game, the junior capped the
offensive burst with a signature
layup as she raced along the base-
line to tie the game at 42-42.
In the beginning of overtime,
DeGraffenreid assisted every bas-
ket scored by the Tar Heels.
Robertson-Warren was the first
recipient, who led off a clutch four-
point overtime performance with a
turnaround jumper.
Just minutes later, DeGraffenreid
dished out another assist to Warren’s
waiting hands in the paint to put
the Tar Heels up 56-50.
Italee Lucas sealed the win after
drawing a foul with one second
left.
“It’s a great feeling just to get
that win, DeGraffenreid said. “We
knew we could do it all along.
“We were tired of losing.”

Warren leads late overtime push
Freshman clutch
down the stretch
By Mike Ehrlich
Senior Writer
WINSTON-SALEM — Cierra
Robertson-Warren was the first
one down the court.
The UNC freshman stood on the
free-throw line with her hands on
her knees and waited for the other
nine players to take their places.
And then she iced the game.
Her defensive rebound and
ensuing free throw gave the Tar
Heels a four-point lead with nine
seconds to go in overtime.
It was enough to earn a hug from
fellow freshman Waltiea Rolle at
midcourt and the first UNC win in
three weeks, a 65-59 nail-biter at
Wake Forest.
In that moment at the free-
throw line, with the weight of the
team’s five-game losing streak on
her shoulders, Warren kept her
thoughts focused.
“I better make it,” Warren said.
“I kept thinking, ‘God, put it in.’”
Warren contributed five of the Tar
Heels’ nine points in overtime and
11 points total. She played a career-
high 23 minutes and was only one
rebound shy of a double-double.
“I was yelling at everybody else
for not finishing,” she said. “So I was
thinking if I’m going to be a leader,
then I had better show by example.”
Warren seemed to get better as
the game went on. Her halftime
stats were unimpressive. Two min-
utes, zero points, one rebound.
North Carolina adjusted for
the last 25 minutes, though. UNC
eventually outscored Wake Forest
by a 34-22 margin in the paint.

DURHAM — U.S. Treasury
Secretary Timothy Geithner met
with local leaders Thursday to dis-

Geithner toured local, small
businesses financed by the New

participated in a roundtable dis-
cussion about loosening the rules
surrounding who is eligible for the
tax credit.
The New Markets Tax Credit
program is designed to give low-

to private capital.

who invest in community devel-
opment projects.

own writing.
Kenan is associate professor of English at UNC and the
author of works of fiction and nonfiction. His most recent
book is The Fire This Time (2007), a nonfiction look at race in
contemporary America. He has received a Guggenheim

Helping
Haitians
deal with
tragedy
T
he horrific earthquake
that struck Haiti just over
a month ago has left the
island desecrated. Stories of
the more than 200,000 dead,
300,000 injured and 1 million
displaced have caused worldwide
sadness and prompted incredible
generosity.
Aid has been showered upon
Haiti and medical teams have
arrived to mend trauma victims.
Medical needs have begun to
shift from surgery to treatment of
chronic conditions and prepara-
tion for potential epidemics of
infection during the rainy season.
But what about the mental
health of survivors who have wit-
nessed family members die, lost
limbs to amputation and now
face an uncertain future?
The Pan American Health
Organization has created a men-
tal health subgroup to address
these issues. Such resources are
surely needed but we must not
forget that unlike broken bones
or infections, mental health is
influenced by culture and treat-
ment must be handled carefully.
It would be fair to assume that
during such a traumatic time,
many Haitians would need to
talk to a psychiatrist, receive a
diagnosis and either take a medi-
cation that corrects a chemical
imbalance or receive counseling.
But Sophia Delpe, a Haitian-
American second-year medical
student at UNC, says Haitians
do not talk much about emotions
and avoid labels like depression.
“It’s taboo,” she said. “Mental
health is not something that
people talk about.”
In fact, some of her family
members have not had been
afforded time to grieve. Her aunt,
from Port-au-Prince, returned
to work the day after the earth-
quake at the urging of her boss.
It seems callous given the
emotional turmoil she must
have endured, but Delpe states
that it has helped.
“In a way it has been therapeu-
tic,” Delpe says, “Life is going on
and is moving forward.”
Of course, this is just one
example out of a huge popula-
tion of people each with their
own harrowing story. One
might not see the same resil-
ience from a mother who lost
her entire family and had both
legs amputated.
Many foreign doctors have been
faced with survivors who are visi-
bly traumatized and appear unable
to cope. In a recent interview with
the Associated Press, Dr. Lynne
Jones of the International Medical
Corps said some doctors, desperate
to help, can only give tranquilizers.
Jones said this is not a suit-
able approach. But then how will
Haitians deal with their grief?
Delpe said getting Haitians
together to share their stories
could be beneficial.
Visiting doctors can also offer
to listen but should not be sur-
prised if locals are hesitant to
ask for help. More importantly,
generous donations will help
prevent Haitians from suffering
further hardship, like trying to
survive the rainy season without
shelter.
Through it all, there will be
a number of Haitians who, like
Delpe’s aunt, will soldier on
bravely through this disaster.
Dr. Astrid Desrosiers, a Haitian
psychiatrist at Mass General
Hospital in Boston, writes in the
American Journal Psychotherapy,
“For many Haitians the ability to
forget is equated with strength.”
To the outside observer, it
might seem like too much to
bear, but the capacity to main-
tain silent fortitude during such
tragedy could be the most potent
tool Haitians have to stave off
despair.

Right man for the job
Bowles right for role leading deficit committee
E
rskine Bowles is good
enough, smart enough,
and doggone it, people
like him.
And he was a good choice
to serve as co-chairman of the
Obama Administration’s bipar-
tisan National Commission
on Fiscal Responsibility and
Reform.
As he finishes his tenure as
president of the UNC system,
he will also be spending time
where his expertise is equally,
if not more, needed.

The task will be to bring

On Wednesday, the

Commission helped exoner-

Taylor. He had served nearly 17
years in prison for a murder he
didn’t commit.
But after a review by the
state commission, Taylor’s case
went in front of a three-judge
panel, which declared him
innocent.
This innocence commission
is a model that other states
should follow. People wrong-
fully convicted whose appeals
have expired should have a
method of recourse.
Founded by the N.C. General

E

deserves praise for pledging
to help bring Latino commu-
nity services back to Carrboro
after the closing of El Centro
Latino.
In order for the new branch
of El Centro Hispano to be
successful, it will need the
support of our community in
all forms.
El Centro Latino closed
in November 2009 due to a
decrease in grants and dona-
tions, economic struggles and
leadership overturns.
The news of the closing has
since caused great consterna-

cent of the GDP.
Bowles, renowned for both
his success in the private sec-
tor and more importantly, his
significant record of public ser-
vice as White House Chief of
Staff under Bill Clinton, packs
an impressive resume. He is an
excellent choice to help lead the
president’s commission.
A Tar Heel from the class
of 1967, Bowles went on to
get his master’s of business
administration from Columbia
University in 1969.
Bowles began his career in
the financial sector at Morgan
Stanley and Co., and later
founded Bowles Hollowell
Connor & Co., a success-
ful investment banking firm
in Charlotte. He went on to
found two other companies,
acquiring a knack for organi-

Its goal is to provide an inde-
pendent forum for credible
claims of innocence in North
Carolina. Groups represented
by the commission include the
defense bar, the judiciary, law
enforcement, prosecutors, vic-
tims’ advocates and the public.
The commission has shed
light on the evidence-collecting
practices of our state investiga-
tors and the gridlock of North
Carolina’s appeals system.
For instance, a crime scene
expert testified during Taylor’s
trial that a substance found in
Taylor’s truck was blood. But
further evidence showed that
other tests, disproving the pre-
vious tests, were not included in
many in the community have

At 6.3 percent, Latinos
are a large portion of Orange
County ’s population and
deserve a place that offers them
valuable resources about the
community in which they live.
El Centro Latino offered
English classes and after-
school tutoring. It was a valu-
able career resource to local
Hispanic people.
El Centro Hispano is known
for its wide variety of programs
and focus on advocacy. It also
offers health programs, legal
and tax services and more edu-
cational classes.

After leaving the Clinton
White House, Bowles returned
to the private sector until becom-
ing the president of the UNC
system in 2006. He announced
Friday that he will step down by
the end of the year.
Needless to say, Bowles’
track record of vast experi-
ence and achievement in eco-
nomic enterprise and chal-
lenging matters of state bodes
well as he works to solve one
of our nation’s most troubling

that Bowles will continue to

the reports used at Taylor’s trial.
Even after all charges were
dropped against Taylor’s co-
defendent and another man
allegedly confessed to the
crime, it still took years for
Taylor to be released.
The Innocence Inquir y
Commission sped up this pro-
cess, and it is a necessary tool
for those in Taylor’s position.
After all, there is an inherent
problem when it takes 17 years
to exonerate a man even when
all physical evidence linking
him to the crime is disproved.

These figures can only help
to clarify just how important
it is that Carrboro and sur-
rounding areas have a place
for Latinos to be able to better
equip themselves to deal with
the pressures of society.
Orange County is aware

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Seize your chance to make
UNC better next year
TO THE EDITOR:
Now that the campaign sea-
son is over, let me first state my
sincerest thanks and apprecia-
tion to the campus for a great
election season. I am so honored
and excited to serve as your next
student body president.
I also want to thank my fellow
candidates for this year’s com-
petitive campaign season. Each
candidate brought a unique per-
spective for moving the University
forward, and I hope to work with
all of them in bettering the efforts
of student government through-
out my term. Their involvement
is critical to the success of any
administration.
As we begin to move forward
into a new student govern-
ment administration, I will be
emphasizing the importance of
your input and feedback dur-
ing this changeover. Please get
in touch with me to share your
thoughts and ideas over the com-
ing months as we begin to recon-
struct the executive branch.
That said, get excited about next
year! There are so many opportu-
nities for you to be involved with
student government.
Applications for the execu-
tive board officers are ready and
available on the student govern-
ment Web site, studentorgs.unc.
edu/studgov. These positions
include the student body vice
president, student body treasur-
er, student body secretary, chief
of staff and senior adviser.
If you are interested in serv-
ing in another capacity, such as
a member of cabinet or on an
external appointment commit-
tee, those will be available later
on in the semester — stay tuned
for more information for those
positions.
It’s time to take action,

The Daily Tar Heel
Kvetching board
kvetch:
v.1 (Yiddish) to complain
What could be better than
waking up to the sight, sound
and smell of sewage seeping
into my room twice in three
days?
Dear Alpine: It’s not your fault,
but I just ate the wax paper.
To the guys in my lab: Stop
lying to yourselves. Your
relationship has moved
beyond a bromance.
Dear suitemate: It’s sad that
the highlight of my day is
when I DON’T see you naked.
To the dirty, old underwear
on the sidewalk in front of
Peabody: Where did you come
from, and why are you still
there?
“What he lacks in girth, he
makes up for in length” —
Seriously, basketball announcer?
To the girl on the phone in
the Cabaret yelling out her
symptoms: I’m no doctor, but I
advise you to take a pregnancy
test ASAP.
To the girl who asked our
chemistry professor if she would
get an A in the class if she got
a 100 on every exam: I don’t
think you need to worry about
perfect scores.
You know it’s a great Valentine’s
Day when you try to buy the
$5 reject roses for yourself and
Trader Joe’s rejects your credit
card.
To the girl with the purple
coat, shoes and hair: Stop
stealing my style. Love, Barney.
Is it really a surprise that
the guy in the dorm most
obsessed with ChatRoulette
has a pornstache?
If half the people that kvetch
about someone being so
beautiful would just go up and
actually say it, that New York
Times article might have read
very differently.
DTH: You reject me more than
the entire male gender ever
has. Why must you demolish
my self-esteem each Friday
morning?
To my chemistry TA: Could you
grade as nicely as you look?
To the boy wearing American-
flag pants on Monday: Thank
you for reminding us all of
Presidents Day in your own
unique way.
To the girl at Rams Head
putting ice cream in her to-go
box: Really?
Wow, DTH. Looks like Candice
gives you a Woodcock judging
from the size of the picture in
last week’s paper.
To the girl with the head lamp
during the blackout: Were you
just spelunking in your room?

CORRECTION:
Due to an editing error in
Thursday’s “QuickHits,” the
board incorrectly stated that
Student Body President Jasmin
Jones has one month left in
office. She has two months
left.
The Daily Tar Heel apolo-
gizes for the error.
