Students and Faculty Mourn Murdered UNC Student Body President

When Eve Carson got to talking about what makes UNC special, her eyes would light up. A smile would spread across her face, and she'd nearly stumble over her words in an anxious, overexcited way.
The Carolina Way, she would say, is what makes the University more than just a place - it's what makes it a home and an identity.
She often described that spirit as a commitment to UNC's prestigious reputation, support for students, academic freedom, service to the public.

UNC Chapel Hill senior Eve Carson was shot and killed early Wednesday morning.
Police are calling the murder a random act of violence. Carson's roommates reported seeing her about 1:30 a.m. at their home the day of the shooting.
We're observing a moment of silence in memory of the UNC student body president murdered yesterday. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Search engine news can wait.
Instead we'll look at how search engines have eliminated the last vestiges of privacy, turned private lives into public figures, and created a global community that can celebrate and honor an ordinary life.

The University of North Carolina's student body president was killed by a shot from a handgun to her right temple, police said Friday.
Detectives confirmed 22-year-old Eve Marie Carson's keys and wallet have not been recovered. Police don't have any suspects in her death, and still believe it was a random act of violence.
The body of the senior from Athens, Ga., was found lying in a city street before dawn Wednesday, shot several times. Her car was later found about a mile away.
