University offers memory journals to students coping with loss

BY RACHEL ROGERS CORRESPONDENT One WVU student is using her own experiences with losing a loved one to help others going through grieving process, too.

When Kensey Bergdorf, a junior immunology and microbiology student, lost her father and grandmother two years ago, she took the advice of a friend and began using a journal as a way to cope.

Bergdorf found this so helpful she shared the idea of journaling with her close friend when she lost her father five months later. This sparked Bergdorf ’s interest in helping students on campus who are going through similar situations.

Now, she’s distributing memory journals and guide books for free.

“This is something I want to share with as many people as possible because it really helped me.”

-Kensey Bergdorf, junior immunology and microbiology student “This is something I want to share with as many people as possible because it really helped me,” Bergdorf said.

Upon hearing Bergdorf ’s idea of giving away journals and guide books, Lisa DiBartolomeo, a world languages associate professor, knew she had to get involved.

“I have been here awhile and I have good relationships and connections and was just able to put Kensey in contact with the right people to make this a project,” DiBartolomeo said.

“This is a fantastic idea.”

Bergdorf and DiBar-

tolomeo turned to the Office of Student Life and received support for the project. Kim Mosby, senior associate dean of student life, appreciated the idea and was eager to help.

“Of course we (Office of Student Life) were on board,” Mosby said. “Anything that we could do to help our students who are grieving would be an excellent idea.”

The memory journals come with a guide book to help students tailor entries to their circumstances.

fits them the most.

“I think the idea behind this is more individualized, which is really what grief is all about,” Hitchcock said.

Bergdorf wanted to create a customizable journal that would be different from other coping resources.

“It’s something you don’t get anywhere else. It’s not a self-help book or a cheesy pamphlet,” Bergdorf said.

Bergdorf and Hitchcock both recognized that some students may not feel comfortable talking to a counselor and felt it was important to give students an alternative way to mourn the loss of a loved one.

Since the program was announced by the Office of Student Life, the response has been overwhelming.

“After the initial email was sent out on MIX, I probably got anywhere from 50 to 60 emails that day,” Mosby said.

The memor y journals, which are funded by Health Sciences Center and the Office of Student Life, are available to any student and can be picked up at the front desk of Elizabeth Moore Hall or at the Carruth Center from Dr. Al Kasprowicz.

Mosby hopes to distribute them in the residence halls soon.

Any student who is coping with loss and would like to see a counselor can contact the Carruth Center at (304)293-4431 or drop in between the hours of 8:15 a.m. and 4:45 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Following $10 million donation, University plans new Business and Economics building downtown On Friday, the University announced plans to open a new Business and Economics building where Stansbury Hall currently sits on Beechurst Avenue.

Initial funding for the new facility came from a donation by WVU alumni Bob and Laura Reynolds, who gifted $10 million to the College of Business and Economics.

While a date for the project is not set, the building will hold the Reynolds’ name, according to a press release from the University.

Stansbury Hall was originally constructed in 1928 as the Mountaineer Field House. It used to hold WVU Basketball Games, and is where WVU legend Jerry West made a name for himself in the late 1950s.

Stansbury Hall sits on Beechurst Ave. across from the PRT station.

For the last 10 years, WVU officials have been studying possible uses for the building, which is currently home to ROTC programs, as well as various classes and offices.

Jerry West, legendary WVU basketball player and NBA logo, played in the gym of Stansbury Hall.

The removal of Stansbury Hall means the removal of a court that once saw the footsteps of Jerry West cross its path every winter.

West, a native of West Virginia, is the logo of the NBA. But before that, he helped guide WVU to its best three-year stretch run from, highlighted by the school’s first NCAA Championship berth in 1959 when it lost to California by one point.

West was drafted by the Lakers with the second overall pick in 1960, playing with the franchise for 14 years. He later captured his only NBA championship in 1972, also becoming a 14-time All-Star.

Following his playing career, he went on coaching for four years and then transitioned to the front office, twice earning NBA Executive of the Year honors. He’s worked for the Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors—the latter being his current employer.

During his time as an executive, he’s helped the franchises to seven combined titles, with the most recent coming in 2015 with the Warriors. Five of those came with Both the Lakers and West Virginia have retired West’s No. 44 jersey. He is also in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

GREATEST LOVE STORIES OF ALL TIME

Greatest love stories of all time? We had no idea. So we went to some experts on campus who shared these recommendations:

1

. Elegy for Iris by John Bayley Recommended by Adam Komisaruk, associate professor of 18th century British literature Iris Murdoch was a lapsed Irish Protestant, a Communist, a lecturer in philosophy and the freewheeling veteran of several high-profile love affairs. John Bayley was an eccentric literary critic with a terrible stammer, five years her junior, who always thought of sex as inconvenient. When she bicycled past his window one day, the spell was cast. For the next 40 years they lived in comfortable squalor mostly outside Oxford, where she became one of the most celebrated and prolific novelists of the twentieth century, spinning intricate tales of love and spirituality, while he turned out studies of Tolstoy, Shakespeare and Henry James. Into their 70s, as her formidable mind was ravaged by Alzheimer’s disease, he never left her side. In-between his new nursemaid duties, he started to chronicle their courtship and marriage in a series of memoirs. The most famous of them would be called Elegy for Iris (1999), a portrait of what it is to feel unwavering, unconditional devotion to someone you still can never completely fathom.

2

. Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell Recommended by Chanelle Pickens, WVU Librarian This fantasized southern tale also presents a romanticized version of slavery presented in Technicolor.

Amid this complex tale of the south, we meet Katie Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler and a love so fiery, so tumultuous, few in literature can compare. There are many expressions of longing and passion: “I’d cut up my heart for you to wear if you wanted it” (Scarlett to her first love, Ashley), “Say you’ll marry me when I come back or, before God, I won’t go. I’ll stay around here and play a guitar under your window every night and sing at the top of my voice and compromise you, so you’ll have to marry me to save your reputation” (Rhett to Scarlett). Long before Vivien Leigh (as Scarlett in the 1939 film) introduced the world to #RBF she uttered to Rhett, “if I said I was madly in love with you, I’d be lying and what’s more, you’d know it”. After years of love lost, found, and lost again, Scarlett vows to re-win the love of Rhett, because “after all, tomorrow is another day.”

3

. The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy Recommended by Gwen Berger, associate professor of African-American literature Set in the Indian state of Kerala, the romance between Ammu, divorced and disgraced mother of two, and Velutha, a family servant from the “untouchable” caste who brings joy to Ammu’s children as the “god of small things,” cannot end well. It is a story about the childhood experiences of fraternal twins whose lives are destroyed by the “Love Laws” that lay down “who should be loved, and how. And how much.” The book explores how the small things affect people’s behavior and their lives.

4

. Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert Recommended by Mary Francus, professor of British women writers Emma Bovary is a great reader, and she falls in love with love while reading romances as a young girl.

Dissatisfied with her marriage, Emma pursues a series of affairs, each time seeking to maintain the thrill of romance that she read about, and that her marriage fails to supply her. As her lovers abandon her and her husband’s medical practice fails, Emma goes into debt. Emma frantically tries to avoid financial disaster, but cannot, and commits suicide. Only after her death does it become apparent that Emma’s husband Charles loved her deeply and desperately—a love that she could not and would not see.

How technology has changed the landscape of modern relationships

BY BRANDON RIDGELY OPINION EDITOR

At one point, a majority of dating started slowly, and face to face. You had to meet someone in person and hope that all of the timings were right, or wait until they were. Maybe even involving a sock hop or two.

Now, it begins with a swipe, a like and a “WRUD.” Whether it’s paid websites like Match.com, free websites like Okcupid. com, or even free apps like Tinder, online dating is exploding in popularity. In fact for 18-24 year olds, the user rate has nearly tripled in three years from 10 percent in 2013 to 27 percent in 2016. Even more interest-

ingly, usage rates have doubled for those between ages 55-64.

The perception of online dating has changed drastically as technology has become more and more a part of our daily lives.

According to Pew Research Center, 15 percent of American adults report that they’ve used online or mobile dating apps. What was originally stigmatized heavily has now become a major norm, and especially so for college students.

While it certainly comes with some negatives, many enjoy the differences online dating has to offer.

This includes the ability to “meet” someone before ever actually meeting them,

the almost guarantee that those you are looking at are also looking for someone and the utter convenience and time saved. But interestingly enough, that’s not all these services are used for.

The age-old critique of online dating is that it is yet another extension of those darn millennials running amok with technology replacing “real” interaction in their daily lives. But in reality, not only do these services allow for interested individuals to meet one another, it also creates an entirely new and unique social scape for communities.

With free services like Tinder, beyond just hooking up, many use the app

to socialize with random people in their local area.

Plenty use the app without the slightest intention of meeting any of the users they match with.

In many ways, this has become an almost call back to the days where chatrooms like AOL were all the rage.

Users came together to talk about anything and everything concerning their hobbies and interests under whatever screen name they decided.

For many this is exactly how services like Tinder function in their day-today lives, with some even making profiles for fictional characters or pets instead of themselves to emphasize

Whether you’re interested in meeting that per-

Memo from former Elkins police chief is toxic, discriminatory

BY BRANDON RIDGELY OPINION EDITOR

In a memo to his officers, Elkins, WV, Police Chief Craig Cross wrote that “cockroaches” from a house in Elkins should be targeted and harassed by local police. He encouraged his officers to “harass” and “stomp” people for things like wearing backpacks or hoodies.

Cross has since left the force (claiming it didn’t relate to the memo), but this does not repair the damage he has done.

This is profiling. Definition: “the recording and analysis of a person’s psychological and behavioral characteristics, so as to assess or predict their capabilities in a certain sphere or to assist in identifying a particular subgroup of people.” In other words, he’s asking his officers to react aggressively toward people for coming to a certain area or for wearing certain things.

This kind of action makes it hard for locals to trust police officials, and it calls into question all of the arrests made under Cross’ leader-

ship. Were these people arrested for what they wore?

Where they lived?

While the letter was denounced by the interim Police Chief J.C. Raffety, It isn’t enough.

The use of this language and reasoning only five years ago led to the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Florida. Martin was initially approached for looking “suspicious” because he was wearing a hoodie.

If this reasoning caused the death of an innocent citizen by another citizen, just think of the potential dam-

age in the hands of an officer of the law who’s responsible for a community’s safety.

In a time where some police are hesitant to make arrests out of fear, and where some citizens are frightened to deal with police at all, actions like this are the last thing our country needs.

It is now up to Elkins PD, under Raffety’s leadership, to earn back the trust of its local community through proper, responsible and constitutional police work.

We can only hope this is accomplished.

An exerpt from former Elkins Police Chief Craig Cross’ memo to officers: “The Watson cockroach house on Kerens Ave needs dealt with. I’m tired of hearing about cockroaches coming out of that house, going to the house or just being associated with that house operating with impunity! Walking around with big a– knives strapped on their hip! If you see any suspected cockroach walking around OUR town with a big a– knife or backpack or hoodie on with the hood up I want them stopped and identified, you know what I want them harassed if you know they are a cockroach! I want people stopped and checked out! PUT THE FEAR BACK INTO THESE COCKROACHES! Stomp cockroach a– if needed!

YOUR (sic) COPS AND AS LONG AS YOU WEAR THAT PATCH ON YOUR SHOULDER THIS IS YOUR TOWN! WE WILL EITHER MAKE PEOPLE RESPECT US OR FEAR US, PREFERRABLY (sic) BOTH!!!!”

The Vagina Monologues comes to campus on V-Day

BY EMILY ZEKONIS STAFF WRITER

Valentine’s Day at WVU will shed light on social issues through presentations of “The Vagina Monologues.”

WVU’s School of Theater and Dance and the Title IX office have teamed up to bring the free performances both Downtown and to Evansdale.

The unique stage production is comprised of

multiple monologues based on 200 interviews of females and the experiences of author Eve Ensler. Each monologue addresses different female experiences and current social issues.

The production grows each year with the addition of a new monologue that relates to a current, large social issue. Past additions include topics of rape, love and birth.

The production was

originally drafted in 1996, and has been a hit performed at theaters, schools and festivals throughout the nation. A 2004 production even included an all transgender cast to promote a theme of the play— the vagina being a symbol of female empowerment rather than a way to define gender.

“A woman is not defined by having a vagina,” Ensler stressed in multiple interviews, “I think it’s import-

The performance will take place on Valentine’s day, but that is not the only significance of Feb.

14. The date is also V-Day. A movement created

by Ensler, V-Day, is a day for for global acceptance and the creation of “a world where women can live freely and safely.” This day promotes productions of the Vagina Monologues to raise funds for wor-

Performances will be held at noon. in the Gluck Theater in the Mountainlair and at 7 p.m. in Bloch Hall of the Creative Arts Center. Tickets are free.

Katherine G. Johnson Born in 1918 in West Virginia, Katherine G. Johnson made the most of limited educational opportunities for African Americans, graduating from college at age 18. She began working in aeronautics as a “human computer” in 1952, and after the formation of NASA, she performed the calculations that sent astronauts into orbit in the early 1960s and to the moon in 1969. Johnson was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2015, and saw her story brought to light through a book and feature film, Hidden Figures, the following year.

Mountaineers embark on trip to Phog Allen

BY DAVID STATMAN SPORTS WRITER

MEN’S BASKETBALL On the first day of the 201617 season, the West Virginia Mountaineers set a goal: to win the Big 12 championship and erase the disappointments of last season.

But today, the Mountaineers sit a full two games out of the top spot in the Big 12— and their official projection as a 4-seed in the NCAA Tournament on Saturday means they’re still a step behind where they were last season. Fortunately for WVU Head Coach Bob Huggins, the biggest tests of the season are still ahead of them.

“We have to go play KU, we have to go play Baylor,” Huggins said. “If we go play KU and Baylor and happen to win, are we a 4? No. We’ve got a lot of things ahead of us.”

That first big test of the season’s final stretch comes Monday night at 9 p.m., when the

No. 13 Mountaineers (20-5, 8-4 Big 12) go to Lawrence, Kan. to try and pull off a feat they’ve never achieved: beating the No. 3 Kansas Jayhawks (22-3, 10-2 Big 12) in the fortress on the plains known as Phog Allen Fieldhouse.

A win at the Phog is one of the most coveted prizes available to a Big 12 team, but recent events have proven that it isn’t an unattainable goal: on Feb. 4, the Iowa State Cyclones ended Kansas’ 51-game winning streak in Lawrence in a 9289 overtime upset.

More than anything, Iowa State shocked the Jayhawks through an explosion of 3-point shooting. The Cyclones shot more than 50 percent from beyond the arc, led by the scoring trio of Deonte Burton (29 points on 7-9 shooting from 3), Monte Morris (25 points, 3-6) and Naz Mitrou-Long (22 points, 6-11).

Although West Virginia is middle-of-the pack as a 3-point shooting team—the Mountaineers rank sixth in the Big

KEYS TO THE GAME 1. Get off to a good start: There aren’t many venues quite like Phog Allen Fieldhouse, a place where Kansas recently held a 50-plus game winning streak. Starting off the game fast will play to WVU’s favor, silencing a raucous crowd.

2. Win the rebounding battle: WVU dominated on the boards against Kansas State (47-26), including 13 offensive rebounds and 15 second chance points. A similar effort—at least winning the battle—will be beneficial in beating the Jayhawks and Landen Lucas, who is one of college basketball’s premier rebounders.

ROG RAGO / THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

WVU forward Esa Ahmad puts up a shot against Kansas forward Josh Johnson during the Mountaineers 85-69 win at the Coliseum on Jan. 24, 2017.

3. Strong performance from Esa Ahmad: The last time the two teams faced showed the sophomore forward’s best effort as a Mountaineer. Ahmad scored a career-high 27 points, bringing a much-needed aggressive style that paved the way to victory. When he’s assertive, so are the Mountaineers, and it showed during the 16-point win over Kansas last month in Morgantown.

12 at 37.0 percent for the season—the challengers still believe they can take valuable lessons from the ISU upset to spring a stunner of their own.

“We’re going to go back and obviously watch the Iowa State game, when they played them, and see some of the things they did,” said junior center Elijah Macon. “Just keep watching

that game and figure out the best way to go in there and get a win.”

West Virginia is no stranger at pulling upsets over the Jayhawks, so long as the game is in Morgantown. WVU has beaten Kansas four straight years at the WVU Coliseum, with all four wins coming with the Jayhawks ranked in the top 10, where

they will sit again tonight.

This same WVU team beat then-No. 2 Kansas on Jan. 25, behind 27 points from sophomore forward Esa Ahmad.

Having already proven they can take out this Kansas team, and having won five of their last six games, the Mountain-

eers are riding into Lawrence with some belief they can take home the win.

“I do have confidence in us that we can go in there and win,” Macon said. “As long as we do what we’re supposed to do and stick to our principles, we can win.”

Junior Elizabeth Gratz was huge in the Mountaineer win over the Wildcats, shooting an NCAA record score of 600. Gratz becomes the first NCAA collegiate shooter to attain the score this season, and only the third Mountaineer in program history to do so.

She joins a party with the likes of Olympic Gold Medalist Nicco Campriani and

three-time NCAA champion Petra Zublasing, both of whom shot a perfect score in the 2011-12 season.

“She has worked really hard this year, especially on the mental side of the sport and how to focus on the things that are most important,” Hammond said in an interview with WVUSports.com “It’s always great to see an athlete reap the rewards

from hard work,” Hammond added.

Sophomore Ginny Thrasher finished second in air rifle with 595 total and freshman Milica Babic came third with a 594 score. Senior Jean-Pierre Lucas and freshman Morgan Phillips finished in fifth and sixth place.

The Mountaineers returned to battle Sunday in their regular-season finale

against No. 3 Murray State.

After the match against Murray State, the Mountaineers will prepare for the NCAA Qualifying Match on Feb. 18.

“The biggest challenge is to stay focused on ourselves,” Hammond said. “There are a lot of distractions at this point with things we are not in control,” said Hammond on what the team needs to do to improve down the final stretch.

WVU earns fourth straight GARC title

BY PATRICK ORSAGOS CORRESPONDENT

RIFLE The No. 2 West Virginia Rifle team won its fourth straight Great American Rifle Conference (GARC) regular-season title against the No. 6 Kentucky Wildcats, prevailing with a score of 4718-4675.

“It’s another match. Another stepping stone,” said WVU head coach Jon Hammond. “At the end of the season we’ll look back and reflect.”

The Mountaineers finished undefeated in the GARC at 8-0 and claimed their 10th regular-season conference title.

“It’s been a good year,” Hammond said.

Kansas and Baylor remain atop Big 12 Power Rankings 8. Texas Tech (16-9, 4-8 Big 12) Last week: No. 8

BY CHRIS JACKSON SPORTS EDITOR

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Neither of the past two losses will hurt Texas Tech much, falling by one point to TCU and Kansas. However, the slate provides another challenging week with affairs against Baylor and West Virginia.

Kansas survived in Lubbock to remain atop the conference, Jonathan Motley shined for Baylor and TCU continues to make strides under first-year head coach Jamie Dixon. Here’s how the Big 12 stacks up this week:

9. Texas (10-15, 4-8 Big 12) Last week: No. 9

1.Kansas (22-3, 10-2 Big 12) Last week: No. 1

Jarrett Allen scored 17 points, added nine rebounds and hit the game-winning free throws as the Longhorns pulled off a big win over Iowa State. However, the team struggled from long range Saturday (17.4 percent) while falling to 4-8 in conference play following the defeat at Oklahoma State.

Kansas survived—barely —in both games last week, defeating Kansas State and Texas Tech by a combined four points. Freshman Josh Jackson hit the game-winning free throw in Lubbock to keep the Jayhawks in sole possession of first place ahead of Monday night’s affair against West Virginia, who they fell to earlier this season in Morgantown.

10. Oklahoma (8-16, 2-10 Big 12) Last week: No. 10

2. Baylor (22-3, 9-3 Big 12) Last week: No. 2 Jonathan Motley scored 24 and 25 points, respectively, guiding the Bears to victories over Oklahoma State and TCU while ending a previous twogame losing streak. The gauntlet doesn’t get any easier with a slate that features matchups against Texas Tech and Kansas this week.

3. WVU (20-4, 8-4 Big 12) Last week: No. 3 Despite watching Kansas remain two games ahead of them, the Mountaineers halted their recent struggles against unranked opponents. They exacted revenge

Next up is a trip to Kansas, where WVU hasn’t won since joining the conference.

4. Iowa State(15-9, 7-5 Big 12) Last week: No. 4 The Cyclones have lost three of their last five, including a loss at Texas last Monday that saw them struggle out

of the gates. However, they responded with an 80-64 victory over Oklahoma to get back on track, led by 23 points from Maz Mitrou-Long.

5. Ok. State (16-9, 5-7 Big 12) Last week: No. 5 Although Brad Underwood’s bunch fell at No. 6 Baylor by just three points, they are winners of six of their last seven games in a stretch that includes an impressive win at WVU.

6. TCU (17-8, 6-6 Big 12) Last week: No. 7 While TCU fell at Baylor on Saturday, it has won three of the past four games and is continuing its surge to an NCAA Tournament berth.

Another win or two could ensure an appearance in March Madness for the first time in nearly two decades.

7. Kansas State (16-9, 5-7 Big 12) Last week: No. 6 After pulling off the upset at Baylor and nearly defeating Kansas, the Wildcats faltered late in a 19-point loss at West Virginia, marking their fifth loss in the last six games.

Since winning at West Virginia, the Sooners have lost seven straight games to remain in last place during a rebuilding year. They have an opportunity to get back on track this week against Texas and Oklahoma State, who they lost to by a combined three points earlier this season.

In addition bad news broke from Oklahoma on Sunday evening with the injury announcement of star senior Jordan Woodard, who tore his right ACL and will require season-ending surgery. He was one of the leaders on a roster filled with underclassmen.

Baylor deserves the largest punishment

by Chris Jackson, Sports Editor

The NCAA needs to dispel its harshest form of disciplinary action on Baylor.

It needs to make Baylor football disappear for at least a single season in the wake of one of the largest scandals in the history of college athletics. The NCAA needs to hand down the Death Penalty in response to a program and university that continuously failed to adhere to policies and support many innocent victims.

Curently players can transfer without losing a year of eligibility, and maybe the NCAA should levy more than just the Death Penalty. It would likely also force a substantial amount of scholarship reductions and implement a postseason ban in addition to no football.

The Big 12 started things in the right direction, withholding 25 percent of Baylor’s revenue. This decision however, is only in effect until the Big 12 deems proper changes have been made for the program and it passes a third-party inspection.

SPORTS | 13 A recent lawsuit alleges that 31 Baylor players committed a combined 52 rapes over a four-year stretch, including five gangrapes. The University did not take appropriate measures to handle the allegations.

Text messages from former Baylor head coach Art Briles— who was let go before last season—showcased much of what went wrong during the entire process. He and the Baylor administration failed to take appropriate measures and give the victims the action they deserved.

At Baylor, football was placed ahead of doezens of women’s lives.

Football is a way of life in Texas. The state loves its football more than anywhere else. There’s the Friday Night Lights, the pageantry of college football Saturdays and NFL Sundays.

Unfortunately, this precedent exceeded the women whose lives are forever changed, due to traumatic experiences that I cannot begin to fathom. These women deserve better and deserve to see the program that failed them through negligence and more, receive the Death Penalty.

No, it’s not fair to the innocent players that had nothing to do with this. It’s not fair to the innocent fans that root for Baylor every fall. It’s not fair to the new coaching staff and first-year head coach Matt Rhule, who came from Temple and signed a seven-year deal.

But it’s what has to be done. Hurting anyone is never okay, and a concerted effort to not help these people cannot go unaddressed .

Of course, delivering a sentence that includes no football is

tough for the NCAA to do. It never did that to Penn State, which was fined $60 million, handed a four-year Bowl ban, vacating wins and losing scholarships instead—which were eventually lessened by the NCAA. Comparing Baylor’s issue to previous cases, however, shows that the harshest form of punishment is what should be done.

USC received a two-year Bowl ban and losses of 30 scholarships over three years after Reggie Bush’s family was given improper benefits. He returned his Heisman Trophy and is no longer on the list of winners (the website doesn’t have the year 2005 or his name listed when he was awarded).

SMU was disposed the Death Penalty in 1987 after 21 players were given a total of $61,000 by a booster’s slush fund. All 1988 home games were canceled and the program lost a total of 55 scholarships over four years. It set the program back for decades and still hasn’t fully recovered, far different from its past that saw national titles and star players dominating on the gridiron.

The NCAA hasn’t issued the Death Penalty in division one football since the case at SMU, a case that is meager compared to the heinous acts at Baylor. If SMU received the Death Penalty for players receiving improper benefits, it’s time for the highest level of college athletics to set the precedent and address sexual assault as the crime it is.

It’s time for Baylor to be without (at least) a year of football.
