DTH at a Glance: Tar Heels turned snow heels

“N...Y...C… what is it about you? You’re big. You’re loud. You’re tough, NYC.” Happy Spring Break Friday, UNC! Even though it feels like it’s the dead of winter again, and the basketball team is snowed-in, here’s some news to get you warm for your pending beach trip(s): 

QUICK HITS

• Two Southern heritage groups have announced separate plans to raise multiple Confederate flags along highways across North Carolina, raising concern for many Orange County residents. 
• “It's a hard time even though it's a really happy time.”A recent study shows that many new parents have trouble getting interviews after taking time off for family — here’s how UNC’s new parent employees handle going back to work. 
• OPINION: Stuck in Chapel Hill for Spring Break? We’ve got a list of fun stuff to do in the Triangle, even if you don’t have a car. 

FROM THE ACC TOURNAMENT

• It’s Duke-UNC part three. The Tar Heels defeated Miami 82-65 last night to move on to tonight’s semifinal game.
• “New York is the Mecca of basketball. Everyone wants to play there.” Half a foot of snow won’t stop the men’s basketball team from dominating the ACC Tournament this weekend. 
• “Things we’ve been looking for all season, it was there tonight.” Ever wondered what the men’s basketball team’s secret is to win the ACC Tournament? Roy Williams was more than happy to share after the Syracuse game. 

LOCAL ARTS, LOCAL SCHOOLS

• A new North Carolina law requires school bus drivers to have current medical examinations to improve the safety of students — but the regulation comes at a cost.  
• Some of us remember cramming for AP Calculus in our senior year, but not 10 year-old Paul Rosu: his 5 on the exam was the result of three years’ work. 
• Got a hot date Friday night? Love art? If you answered yes to either of these questions, Ackland Art Museum’s 2nd Friday ArtWalk features the beauty, elegance and delicacy that women were viewed and painted in 18th-century France.
