He must be a UNC Journalism major.

Then the copy editor needs help. His reporting is great. His writing???

The classes, some advertised as lectures but that never met and others listed as independent studies, were supervised by Deborah Crowder, a manager in African and Afro-American studies whoa report from former U.S. Justice Department official Kenneth Wainstein says graded required end-of-semester work leniently as part of a “paper class” scheme to keep athletes eligible.

Overall, Dan Kane and the N&O have done tremendous work covering this scandal and not letting it die each time UNC has tried to sweep it under the rug. Good to see a local paper doing true investigative journalism given their reduced readership and slashed budgets. Reminiscent of how The Greenville News dug through a Columbia landfill to help uncover Holderman's scandals at USuC.

To your point on the writing in this article, you are correct it was difficult to read. Maybe he's tired. Also the content is old news as the report has been out for weeks. Glad he did succinctly tied Roy's lies together over the course of years.

Has Swoffie made ANY comment(s) about any of this?

Can anyone name violations that are worse than 18 years of fake classes?

I've disliked unc for a long time, always looking down their noses at everything from SC.
