First of all, Wikipedia is not a memorial. Prior to her tragic death, the only aspect that stands out about her is that she served as the UNC student body president. Student body presidents are generally not notable as they do not receive significant coverage from reliable, third-party sources. A Google News search shows that Carson hardly received any coverage from these type of sources prior to her death. The majority of the articles in the Google search that mention her are from The Daily Tar Heel, UNC's student-run newspaper. BlueAg09 (Talk) 10:02, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's a national news story. There is no necessity of deleting it in a big hurry. See how it plays out first. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 10:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
