"Chapel Hill, N.C. — The Board of Trustees at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on Thursday unanimously approved a measure that would allow students living on campus the option of choosing a roommate of any gender. Supporters of the gender non-specific housing option say the move would help students – specifically gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students – who are being harassed and bullied in traditional on-campus housing. Students would have to apply to be part of the program, and university administrators say it will affect only a small percentage of dorm rooms and campus apartments. "No one will be forced into this option," said Terri Phoenix, director of UNC-Chapel Hill's LGBTQ Center. "It really is an issue of safety for our students. In the end, this is about people having a safe place to live and to study." Chancellor Holden Thorp says work to implement the plan for the fall 2013 semester will begin immediately. "Gender non-specific housing is an important project that is vital to protecting the safety of our students," Thorp told the Board of Trustees’ Student Affairs Committee on Wednesday. Student supporters present for Thursday's meeting were pleased that trustees endorsed the measure, saying it's something they have been working toward for a while. Gender non-specific housing isn't new. Nearly 100 colleges nationwide – including seven of UNC-Chapel Hill's peer universities – have the option. The list includes Duke University and the University of Maryland."

I'm curious what happened, it's tough to tell from the pictures but it looks like they may have been working outside of the trench box?

Pretty much...in the event of a gunman in the school they will be useless

Why not just hire a 5th grader at the school to sit at the front desk... That's basically what they would achieve with a security guard.

1/23/2013 7:15:38 AM

I live at Harrison and Maynard in Cary and mine was out about 10 minutes starting at 6:30am

1/23/2013 7:19:42 AM

i woke up when the fucker went BOOM almost an hour ago, and I've been awake ever since.

i was without power for less than 5 minutes.

1/23/2013 7:20:24 AM

The smoke alarms went into test mode because of the power flickers, which means that it beeps like every 90 seconds or so. No biggie, except that for some reason the tone of that beep freaks my dog right the fuck out. He gets completely manic, tries to get as far away from them as possible, starts panting and generally wigging out.

Totally awesome at 6AM.

1/23/2013 7:31:21 AM

so that's why all my clocks need to be reset

I'm off Reedy Creek and experienced the same outage. Must have been a pretty decent sized area, but at least it didn't last long.

1/23/2013 7:52:33 AM

I live off walnut near Cary towne mall and my power flickered off and on quickly around 6ish.

1/23/2013 7:55:39 AM

it went boom close enough to my apartment to wake me up, so that means 54/Weston Pkwy area

must have been a big transformer

1/23/2013 7:55:52 AM

oh damn it does that mean the traffic light at the intersection is going to be out? TRAFFIC THIS MORNING IS GOING TO BE A CLUSTERFUCK UGH

1/23/2013 8:06:57 AM

it went boom almost two hours ago, and i had my power back in less than 5 minutes! if that traffic light is still out or even blinking, i'd be shocked.

1/23/2013 8:08:09 AM

I'm right by downtown off old Apex and we were out from ~6:30-6:50.

I heard it go off--always do. My brain is just that dependent on white noise to sleep.
