Just more opportunities for DK and peckerhead pride to waste their time.
RALEIGH, N.C. — The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has released more documents from a trove of 5 million pages of emails, memos and other records collected as part of the investigation into the school's long-running academic fraud scandal.
The December release, which totals more than 227,000 pages, comes about two months after the university posted 200,000-plus pages of unsearchable PDFs online in response to a public records request from The News & Observer and The Daily Tar Heel – the largest request in the university's history, according to school officials. The records release prompted WRAL News to launch an app in November that opened the search of those documents to the public.

Interactive: Search thousands of UNC scandal records
The documents UNC posted online last week, however, do contain "readable" text encoded in the files, allowing readers to search for words or phrases in many common PDF readers.
UNC spokesperson Jim Gregory said Monday that after conversations with the media and others following the release of the first batch, university officials decided making the documents searchable would improve transparency and save costs as they continue to release records.
"We thought it was the right thing to do," Gregory said.
