4 FINLEY GOLF COURSE Finley Golf Course is once again one of the premier college facilities in the nation. Traditionally recognized as one of the most beautiful courses in the southeast, Finley recently received a facelift that makes it one of the most challenging as well. Internationally renowned golf course designer Tom Fazio designed the New Finley Golf Course. It features a completely different layout, yet some of the best aspects of the old course were retained. The new course features a par 72 layout with five sets of tees ranging from 4,981 yards from the forward tees to 7,187 yards from the championship markers, thus presenting a stiff challenge to the best golfers while still remaining accessible to those of all skill levels. Tees, greens and fairways were built and planted to the highest standard, while a state-of-the-art irrigation system and exceptional drainage maintains the quality of the course. In addition, the practice range was expanded and rebuilt and the clubhouse and snack shop underwent extensive renovations. Carolina s golf teams also have a new team facility, the Chapman Golf Center which opened in November The 4,500-square-foot facility houses offices for the men s and women s golf coaches, men s and women s lockerrooms, a team meeting room and a reception area. A Hall of Honor which honors former Carolina players and coaches is planned for the future. There is also a climate controlled individual teaching area with two hitting bays and a state-of-the-art teaching system. At the far end of the range adjacent to the team facility is a practice area used exclusively by the men's and women s golf teams. In addition to a practice range, there are putting and chipping greens and bunkers so the teams can hone their short games. Finley Golf Course, originally designed by George Cobb and built by Raleigh businessman A. E. Finley, opened in Three holes were added in the early 1980s, also designed by Cobb, and the clubhouse underwent renovations in Over the years, Finley has been host to many collegiate, high school and amateur competitions. Finley also plays host to the annual A. E. Finley Executive Cup Tournament each year and to championships conducted by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association. Finley Golf Course is located off Highway 54 in Chapel Hill. It is frequented by Carolina students, staff and faculty as well as many alumni of the University.

5 STUDENT SERVICES Fin ley Golf Course and the Chapman Golf Center help Carolina golfers become better players. Fortunately, Carolina student-athletes are afforded a wide range of benefits and services to help them succeed off the golf course as well. ACADEMICS Dedicated people like John Blanchard, Marisa Marucci and the rest of the academic center staff help ensure that student athletes realize their academic potential within the demanding environment of Division I athletics. Much of the work toward that goal takes place in the 10,000 square foot Student Athlete Development Center, located at the east end of Kenan Stadium in the Kenan Fiedlhouse. The center houses seven tutorial rooms, two conference rooms, a lecture room, computer lab, a reading lounge, seven offices and a 130-seat auditorium. The academic support program offers structured study programs Sunday through Thursday nights, with tutors available if needed. Many Carolina athletes have earned academic honors such as induction into Phi Beta Kappa and selection to GTE/CoSIDA Academic All- America teams. FITNESS CENTER Student-Athlete Development Coordinator Jeff Connors and a knowledgable staff, including Greg Gatz and Steve Gisselman, supervise the use of the 9,000 square foot Fitness Center located below the Development Center. A vast array of free weights, Kaiser compressed air machines and a full Nautilus line are used in tailor-made workouts designed to increase flexibility and power. One of three fitness facilities used by Carolina athletes, the Kenan facility also features a performance lab with computerized treadmills, Biocycles and step machines. This room is used for conditioning and monitoring rehabilitative progress. MEDICAL CARE The Tar Heels also receive excellent care from one of the country's most complete sports medicine programs. Dr. Tim Taft oversees a program that includes care by Dr. Bryan Smith, nurses and interns. Five full-time athletic trainers and physical therapists, including Rob Schneider, several graduate students and undergraduates complete the training staff. The medical and athletic training facilities are in the Student Health Center and Fetzer Gym for easy access if treatment or advice on the care and prevention of injuries is needed. The Carolina Athletic Department also recognizes a responsibility in educating student athletes on the physical, mental, emotional and legal issues involved in drug abuse. Accordingly, the department has established a drug education and prevention program which is administered by the University's Student Health Services.

CAREER PLANNING & PLACEMENT Carolina student athletes can prepare for the future by participating in UNC s career planning and placement program. The program combines services from the University s Career Planning and Placement Service and the Athletic Department s special activities. The departmental program includes a monthly newsletter, skills development workshops, career planning seminars and information on such topics as resume preparation and interview techniques. ACC HONOR ROLL INCLUDES 251 TAR HEELS The University of North Carolina had 251 students qualify for the Atlantic Coast Conference Academic Honor Roll, according to ACC Commissioner John Swofford. Four men s golf team members, Bob Cherry, Ned Murchison, Will Snellings and Richard Treis, qualified for a spot on this Honor Roll. The Honor Roll is comprised of studentathletes in a varsity sport who earned a GPA of 3.0 or higher for the school year. DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS STATEMENT ON GAMBLING The mission of the Department of Athletics is to sponsor a broad-based athletic program that provides educational and athletic opportunities for young men and women to grow and develop. In keeping with the Department s mission and the University s commitment to educational interests, competitive athletic programs, and integrity in all areas, the Department of Athletics strongly condemns the influence of gambling on intercollegiate athletics. Student gambling is a significant issue on college campuses. Student-athlete involvement in gambling has produced many tragic situations, both for student-athletes and the universities they represent. Student-athletes often compete in contests that generate interest from those involved in gambling and, possibly, organized crime. If given the opportunity, those interests will not hesitate to exploit the position student-athletes hold on college campuses. As such, the University of North Carolina is firmly opposed to all forms of gambling and bribery related to intercollegiate athletics. To fulfill its educational obligation, the Department provides a gambling education program to all its student-athletes and departmental staff members. This statement and the educational program are reflections of the Department s commitment to keeping intercollegiate athletics free from the influences of gambling and its related activities. The Department requires its staff members and student-athletes to adhere to NCAA, state and federal laws regarding gambling. In the interest of fair competition and the growth and development of student-athletes, the Department strongly urges its friends and supporters to refrain from gambling/betting on contests involving collegiate competition and to abide by state and federal laws.
