Students use Apple Watches to cheat on chemistry exam

BY ADRIANNE UPHOLD CITY EDITOR

A new technique of cheating has been discovered in the WVU chemistry department, according to three professors.

This semester, students in a freshman chemistry class used their phones to take pictures of the exam and then used Apple Watches to send the answers to other students during an exam, the professors said.

“They took a picture, sent it to someone else (outside of the classroom) who did the test and

then they sent the information back,” said Mark Schraf, a WVU chemistry teaching instructor.

Mingming Xu, chemistry teaching associate professor, said from 2005 to 2010 the chemistry department didn’t accuse anyone of cheating. It’s a lot different now.

“Since then, every semester we (the chemistry department) have at least three to four students who cheat,” Xu said.

“Right now, I have three students alone. The cheating now is more organized than it has ever been. I want to believe in

my students, not worry that ‘Oh maybe he or she didn’t get that question right.’”

While the investigation of the cheating using the Apple Watch is ongoing, Schraf said the students who had the watches took the wrist bands off and held them in the palms of their hands so it wasn’t noticeable to professors and teachers’ assistants in the room. Other details, including the names of students involved, are not being released pending the investigation.

The chemistry department

learned of the cheating scandal from a student who saw an Apple Watch being used to send the pictures during an exam.

It is not known who provided the answers. “What scares me is that people who might not even be in the University at all could be participating in this for money,” Schraf said.

“Talking to students about this, we get the definite feeling that this is a lot more widespread than we would like to believe,” said Betsy Ratcliff, associate chemistry professor.

“There is a larger number of

students who are participating in this. It’s like students just can give their numbers to someone and they can be in on the cheating as well.”

Ratcliff said the only way to stop cheating is to move to computerized testing.

“We can’t do paper tests anymore forever, we have to adapt to what is going on,” she said. “But right now the facilities for computerized testing are not where they need to be.

We are talking about 2,000 students a semester and we just don’t have those facilities for

the students right now.”

Professors can’t see everything that is happening in a 200-person classroom, Scharf said.

“The only way we caught this person was from someone who saw the device come out of the pocket,” Schraf said. “If you are honest in your work, and you are busting to try to do well, it’s foolish to witness somebody else cheating and to let it go. Cheaters are affecting your grade in that class, make sure they don’t get away with it.”

University holds first annual Mountaineer Talks

BY RACHEL ROGERS STAFF WRITER

Controversy took center stage with students, doctoral candidates and faculty members talking about concerning topics like wrongful incarceration and Islamophobia as part of the first-ever Mountaineer Talks.

Emma Harrison, a sophomore political science and multidisciplinary studies student, used her 10 minute talk to highlight the issue of wrongful incarceration in the United States.

“We need to realize that this issue is bigger than one issue or one person,” Harrison said.

“We need to focus on the problem and practice empathy. They need to be treated like people.”

Harrison is involved in the WVU branch of The Innocence Project, an initiative aimed at

helping the wrongfully convicted in the state prove their innocence.

She called on all students to volunteer with the Innocence Project in conjunction with the WVU Law School. Harrison also challenged medical students to get involved with DNA testing to find a solution for false convictions.

Islamophobia in a rural Appalachian classroom was the topic of Samuel Troy Shephard’s Mountaineer Talk.

When Shephard, a graduate student, surveyed 7th grade students about Islam, 38 percent believed Muslims cause all terrorism and nearly every student had a negative connotation of Islam and the Middle East.

“They had no empathy for communities or events outside of the United States,” Shephard, who has a Master’s degree in secondary education, said.

COLIN TRACY / THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

Sophomore Emma Harrison led her talk on the subject of Wrongful Incarceration and You, during the Mountaineer Talks presentation held inside of the Mountainlair.

Shephard immediately recognized the shortcomings of the social studies curriculum in the United States’ education system.

“Our civic education blatantly emphasizes patriotism and obedience over democratic

principles,” Shephard said.

In fact, only one percent of Shephard’s students identified speaking out for what they believe in as a major component of patriotism.

After bringing in Muslim speakers and showing videos

of students in the Middle East, Shephard noticed his students were becoming more aware of the misconceptions about Muslims.

Shephard is now using what he learned in the 7th grade classroom to push for a change in the academic environment in Appalachia.

“We need to start teaching our social studies from a global standpoint,” Shephard said. “Don’t give up on the Appalachians.”

Savanah Lusk, a junior exercise physiology student, used her upbringing in southern West Virginia and her experience as a first-generation college student to assert that education is a greater resource than coal in West Virginia.

“You don’t really hear the word ‘hope’ in southern West Virginia anymore,” Lusk said.

Coal production declined 71

percent in the southern counties between 2008 and 2015.

However, Lusk is looking to education as a solution to the declining economic state in coal country.

“I’m worried about if we start letting education slip and disappear,” Lusk said. “We don’t have to be slaves to one industry.”

She is not worried about the depletion of coal, but rather the depletion of knowledge. Lusk believes the people of the southern half of the state are not defined by the issues they face.

“We are more than opioid epidemic; We are more than poverty; We are more than coal,” Lusk said.

Lusk says this issue can be fixed if college graduates stay in West Virginia and invest in the state.

“We can redeem our state but it’s going to take some legwork,” Lusk said.

WVU alumni to open equine apparel and tack store

BY ERIN DRUMMOND AND EMILY ZEKONIS EDITORIAL STAFF

Two WVU alumni are going “A Bit Above” the typical graduate with the opening of their new specialty store here in Morgantown.

Samantha Knight Hansen, a journalism graduate, and Diane Gaston, a parks and recreation graduate, have put their degrees and interests together to open a new equine apparel and tack store, A Bit Above, located in the Mountaineer Mall at 5000 Greenbag Rd. “I grew up as an avid

horseback rider so the equine and apparel industry has always been a passion of mine,” xKnight Hasen, a Morgantown native and 2010 WVU graduate, said. “When this business from Pittsburgh went on the market, I decided the opportunity was too great to pass up.”

Although Hansen’s major does not directly connect her to the equestrian community, she found a way to involve her interests in her college experience. Hansen was a part of the WVU equestrian team while she pursued

her broadcast journalism degree.

“Having a degree from the School of Journalism gave me a well-rounded background in public relations, marketing, writing and communications,” said Hansen. “All of these skills are directly related to running a successful small business. In the Broadcast News program, filming and editing was my favorite element, so the comparison to running a seamless business and constructing media pieces are actually quite similar.”

Hansen also had small

business exposure from her years growing up in Morgantown. She followed the strong example of her parents. Her father owns the printing shop WV Best Signs, and her mother comes from a family-owned oil and gas company.

“Seeing my dad’s dedication to this town and WVU students instilled a strong and loyal work ethic for both a growing Morgantown and family business,” Hansen said.

“As a Morgantown native, I have always wanted to see this town thrive from

“Seeing my dad’s dedication to this town and WVU students instilled a strong and loyal work ethic for both a growing Morgantown and family business.”

-Samantha Knight Hansen, co-owner of A Bit Above a local, small business perspective.”

A Bit Above will carry a variety of equestrian apparel including competition gear, casual riding apparel, boots, helmets and outerwear. A small selection of tack and horse equipment and supplies will also be available.

“I hope to bring a place of unity and friendship for the equine community in this region,” Hansen said.

“My goal is to provide a place for all of the outstanding riders I know, and hope to meet soon, to connect and address the previous lack of rider apparel needs.”

Four and eight week courses begin May 22 and June 19 at the Kanawha Valley’s WVSU. Affordable, flexible day, evening and online classes.

OPINION

WVU Press: a pivotal resource for the community GUEST EDITORIAL BY DEREK KRISSOFF WVU PRESS DIRECTOR Next month Sarah Munroe, an MFA candidate in the English department and two year WVU Press graduate assistant, will receive her degree and leave (reluctantly, I’m told) the University and press.

Like all of our GAs she’ll move on to a good job. In Sarah’s case, at the Pew Charitable Trusts. Other recent press GAs now work for Indiana University Press, the Naval Institute Press, Northern Illinois University Press and KeyLogic Systems.

While WVU Press’s graduate assistant program may be its most visible point of con-

tact with students, our work provides significant benefits to people at the University, around the state and beyond—even if we’re sometimes confused with a printing press, or the Daily Athenaeum.

WVU Press is a book publisher. We acquire, edit, design, market and sell books, just like Random House. In fact, we’re the largest book publisher in West Virginia. We’re also a notfor-profit and part of WVU. Many of our books, like Eyes Glowing at the Edge of the Woods, our new anthology of fiction and poetry by West Virginians, might not have seen the light of day if not for WVU Press. That point is particularly important now, when so many Americans are tempted to gen-

eralize about Appalachia. Without a robust publishing house based here in West Virginia, I think it’s safe to assume we’d have fewer grounded, diverse voices contributing to a full and sensitive conversation about the region.

WVU Press books also project the University’s strength as a major research institution.

Scholars, readers and students encounter our books in the classroom, on bookstore shelves and in published reviews for places like the New York Review of Books.

New book series at the press—including one in environmental humanities edited

by WVU professor Stephanie Foote and another in Appalachian music edited by Travis

Stimeling—also of WVU—are designed to draw attention to the University’s strength across key academic disciplines.

You can get involved with the press by looking into our graduate assistant and internship programs, and also by reading our books.

Most WVU Press titles are available in affordable paperback editions; you can find them on our website, at online retailers like Amazon and in bookstores (the Barnes & Noble at the University Town Centre now has a special section just for WVU Press).

Our work here requires close collaboration with other members of the University community. I hope you’ll be inspired to get to know us better.

Finals Week mental health: how to survive the stress from finals season

BY BRANDON RIDGELY OPINION EDITOR

It’s that time of year, and you can feel it in the air. Final projects, exams and research papers are raining down on students. Even students ahead of their classes and finals can still face some terrible stress in this time of the year.

Leases are ending, finals are being taken and grades are being decided. Even futures at this University are being decided, and beyond the University, students are seeking out internships and jobs.

It’s just not the happiest of times, really. Read the faces of your peers and you can see it.

But that stress can be dangerous, and addressing it prop-

erly is the key to success and maintaining strong mental health. Though it may be the most stressful period of the year, you should know you don’t have to take it on alone.

In addition to many resources, the Carruth Center is here to help.

“Often students can become so overwhelmed with studying, they can begin to ignore basic aspects of self-care,” said Elijah Wise, outreach coordinator for the Carruth Center. “So as a starting point, we often recommend that students make sure they are attending to nutrition, sleep and exercise. Although that might sound simple, often when we’re overwhelmed with stress it might seem easier to pull an all-nighter, sit at the

computer for hours at a time or eat a few snacks while studying rather than having a meal...

Attending to wellness actually improves concentration, allowing students to work more efficiently. So it is incredibly worthwhile to take a few minutes every hour to move around, schedule in meal breaks, and try to establish deadlines for getting to bed.”

Beyond these necessary areas, mental health goes further than these basic health needs.

“Wellness also includes tending to relationships and utilizing social support as needed,” Wise said. “Additionally, there are a variety of stress management techniques (yoga, meditation, breathing techniques) that can help man-

age stress.”

This means that along with taking proper care of yourself, working in enough time to tackle your social needs is equally important.

A lunch break with a friend is not going to break your college career, and neither is some exercise. This can even benefit long term studying and your ability to perform in the final tasks of your classes.

Keeping up with health isn’t a part time job, and there aren’t vacation days you can take off.

So, my fellow Mountaineers, take care of yourselves in the coming week. Keep your priorities straight. It’s health over grades every time. In doing so, your academic performance will likely even improve as well.

WVU’s Model UN honored at national confernce

BY EMILY ZEKONIS

CULTURE ASSOCIATE EDITOR WVU students took on the role of international diplomats for a weekend of high success in New York City.

WVU’s Model United Nations Club sent 48 members to attend the National Model United Nations Conference from April 9-13. Students were split into three groups to represent Cuba, Antigua and Barbuda.

“As an average delegate at the conference, you take the role of a diplomat on a committee from a representative nation that is

decided and researched months in advance,” said Brian Tomblin, president of WVU’s Model UN Club.

“You work with other delegates on a topic relating to the prerogatives of the committee, such as the situation in Syria for the Security Council, to draft solutions. Those solutions are then discussed in speeches and suspensions before being documented into draft resolutions for the committee to vote on in order to produce, as a full body, the best actions possible for the topic.”

Committees work during individual sessions, and then are eval-

uated by professionalism to create a total score that is ranked on a three -level distinction scale: outstanding, distinguished and honorable mention.

Position paper awards are also given out to recognize papers that exhibit high knowledge of the agenda topics, the assigned country and current global events.

“WVU earned 11 position paper awards,” said Morgan King, secretary of the club. “The Cuba delegation received an Outstanding award, and the Antigua and Barbuda delegation received a Distinguished award.”

The WVU Model UN Club allows students to gain first-hand experience in the United Nations General Assembly and other branches of the United Nations system.

The club is open to students of all majors who have an interest in global issues, conflict resolution, public speaking and leadership.

“We constantly want to find students with differing backgrounds because those backgrounds will give differing opinions on the answers to the world’s problems,” Tomblin, an engineering student, said.

“I also had difficulty with

“We constantly want to find students with differing backgrounds.”

-Brian Tomblin, president of Model UN public speaking, but my work in Model UN has brought me out of my comfort zone to now have little problems with such experiences.”

WVU Model UN participates in national conferences twice a year.

This year, however, the group plans to participate in two international conferences: one in November taking place in Banff, Canada and another in January in the Galapagos Islands.

“Literally any student can get involved in Model UN,” Tomblin said. “The only requirements for being a part of WVU’s Model UN are a willingness to listen and debate with others and the determination to handle the hard work of writing, research and leadership that comes with the delegate position.”

Annual festival returns to Marvin’s Mountaintop

BY ERIN DRUMMOND CULTURE EDITOR

Only 15 minutes from Morgantown, Marvin’s Mountaintop and the Cheat River Canyon will serve as a backdrop for the Deep Roots Mountain Revival festival.

The second annual Deep Roots Mountain Revival festival will take place July 2022 at Marvin’s Mountaintop in Masontown, W. Va. The family-friendly music festival involves outdoor activities for children as well as three days of camping, dancing and relaxing with friends.

Patrons can expect music within Americana, Bluegrass, Rock and Jam genres with regional visual artists and craft

vendors.

Headliners for this year include Brandi Carlile, Dr. Dog, Lettuce, JJ Grey & Mofro, Moon Taxi, Sam Bush, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Motet and more.

“Deep Roots Mountain Revival is something that every student, or resident, of Morgantown and the surrounding area can enjoy,” said Claude Ryan, the festival’s founder. “We have a little bit of something for everyone. We are an extremely family-friendly event with a weekend calendar full of kid’s activities, adult activities, incredible live music and awesome food and beverage options.”

In 2011, festival founder

Claude Ryan joined with Clayton Koontz, the founder of Active Air Productions. Together, they shared a similar dream of creating their own music festival, which was brought to life in 2016 due to their separate ties with Marvin’s Mountaintop.

“The biggest changes for 2017 would probably be a change in the stage layout, more kids activities, an updated walking path through the woods to the Roots Stage, an Artist Village, updates to the Family & ADA Camping Area, better site transportation and RV Electrical Hookups in GA Parking,” Ryan said. “Every year that we survive, we want to make minor changes to the event to en-

hance the experience for the attendees that support us.”

According to Ryan, there were approximately 1,400 attendees at last year’s event.

The goal is to increase that number by a minimum of 3,500 for this year. Ticket sales will be capped at 12,000.

“We want to the event to remain relatively small so we can keep the experience more personal for those that attend,” added Ryan, a lifelong West Virginia resident.

For more information, visit www.deeprootsmountainrevival.com. Locally discounted tickets are still available and can be purchased at Terra Café or Big Times, both located in Morgantown.

FASHION FRIDAY

H&M Conscious Exclusive collection makes sustainable stylish

BY ALAINIA CONRAD FASHION COLUMNIST

Fast-fashion retailer H&M recently unveiled its latest Conscious Exclusive collection for 2017, an assortment of environmentally friendly pieces made from recycled materials and sustainable manufacturing, only available online and in select stores.

H&M describes Conscious Exclusive as “an annual collection where we showcase our vision of how forward-looking design can be made with more sustainable techniques.”

H&M Conscious provides a stark contrast to the average offerings of fast-fashion, an industry where quick production and low cost is the goal, resulting in harmful garment construction and cheaply-made clothing that does not last long and ends up in the trash after tearing, fading or going out of style.

The difference between H&M Conscious and the store’s normal line is apparent in the pricing, with some of the least expensive clothing items in the collection being a $49.99 plum knit silk top, and a yellow skirt and lyocell-blend blouse, each priced at $59.99. Most pieces in the collection cost $100 and above. The collection does also include some less expensive shoes and acces-

PHOTO COURTESY OF H&M

sories, such as a $34.99 pair of blue sequin earrings made from recycled plastic.

Other pieces featured in the women’s collection are a belted black silk-blend jacket ($149), a powder blue jacquard-weave jacket featuring floral appliqué decoration and metallic stitching ($399), a blush pink pleated dress with sculptural ruffles along the leg, waist and collar ($249), a pink tie-neck dress ($249) made of the

same recycled plastic sequins as the pair of earrings and even a tulle wedding dress ($349).

H&M Conscious Exclusive has a men’s and children’s line as well.

Hopefully, the success of H&M Conscious will inspire other fast-fashion brands to create similarly eco-friendly collections, and drive the fashion industry as a whole to adopt the use of natural and sustainable materials and more progressive methods of production.

The DA sports awards A look at this year’s Mountaineer sports standouts

Athletes of the Year JEVON CARTER, MEN’S BASKETBALL

KADEISHA BUCHANAN, WOMEN’S SOCCER STAFF PHOTO

In the second round of the 2017 NCAA Tournament, Jevon Carter scored a season-high 24 points. He led the Mountaineers past the Notre Dame Fighting Irish—a team many predicted to defeat WVU. For that, WVU men’s basketball junior Jevon Carter is The Daily Athenaeum’s Co-Athlete of the Year.

Carter led the Mountaineers in scoring with 13.5 points per game becoming a dual-threat in the process.

A native of Maywood, Illinois, Carter helped keep WVU among the elite in college basketball as WVU compiled an overall record of 26-8. A modest man after games, Carter is quick to credit his teammates for his success.

“I just take the shot,” Carter said after WVU advanced to the Big 12 Tournament semifinals. “My teammates do a good job of setting up.”

In that matchup, Carter scored 21 points but it was his leadership that shined. For a guy that spends most of his free-time practicing and improving, it comes naturally.

After the Mountaineers loss to Gonzaga in the Sweet 16, a post from Carter’s mother went viral. To sum it up, Carter is taking no days off to prepare for the 2018 season. He wants to get better so his Mountaineer team can dive deeper into the NCAA Tournament waters.

Carter turned out to be a dynamo in 2017 for West Virginia.

With WVU being the only Big 12 Conference school to give him a chance, he has proven to be one of head coach Bob Huggins’ diamonds in the rough.

This season alone, Carter racked up awards for his defensive mastery. He was the first Mountaineer to be named the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Defensive Player of the Year as well as the Big 12’s Defensive Player of the Year.

September 2017 will mark four years since Carter made his commitment to West Virginia. While it recently made news that he will explore an opportunity at the NBA level by submitting his name for the annual draft, one thing is for certain; the Mountaineer faithful would love to hear “No.2 Jevon Carter” after the carpet is rolled out.

There’s no hiding the fact that former WVU soccer star Kadeisha Buchanan is one of the best soccer players on the planet.

A MAC Hermann Trophy winner, which is the soccer equivalent to college football’s Heisman Trophy, to go along with her other accolades that include: Top Drawer Soccer’s Player of the Year, and espnW’s women’s soccer Player of the Year; Buchanan is a clear choice for The Daily Athenaeum’s Co-Athlete of the Year.

Last season, Buchanan and WVU women’s soccer conceded zero regular-season goals in conference play. It’s an impressive streak that spanned across 10 matches, but ended in the team’s most important match at that point in the season.

As West Virginia was facing its first deficit in Big 12 play all year, it was Buchanan who sprung life into her teammates. With just under two minutes left in regulation and disappointment looming, Buchanan found the ball on her foot with an open net. Buchanan perfectly placed the ball in the upper-corner of the net.

Buchanan’s goal would eventually lead to WVU claiming its 16th Big 12 Championship.

The Brampton, Ontario native’s resume goes on and on for the 2016-17 year. After representing Canada at the Rio Olympics, Buchanan jumped right back into the midst of WVU’s season. There are few things that would prevent Buchanan from playing soccer.

She ended her Mountaineer career starting in 90-out-of-91 matches, which in college soccer is rare due to the compacted schedule. One month after Buchanan’s WVU career came to a close; Buchanan received a professional contract from Olympic Lyonnnais in France, a team WVU head coach Nikki Izzo-Brown called “the best women’s soccer club in the world.”

Buchanan became a fixture for the program. The ovation she received on her Senior Night showed how important she became to the soccer community in Morgantown.

Over the course of her career, Buchanan cemented a legacy alongside Izzo-Brown as pioneers for what WVU women’s soccer is becoming—a soccer powerhouse.

REPORTING BY ALEC GEARTY, JOHN LOWE, CHRIS JACKSON AND PATRICK KOTNIK

Mike Carey applauds his team during a women’s basketball game.

Coach of the Year

MIKE CAREY, WOMEN’S BASKETBALL On Feb. 25, Mike Carey’s women’s basketball team was at its lowest point.

After quickly starting out 13-0, the Mountaineers endured injuries and demoralizing cases of being outmatched to stumble through the next 16 games, winning only six.

Carey could have given up on his team, but he didn’t.

His “never-say-die” approach to coaching pushed his team to unequaled levels of success in its last four regular season games.

West Virginia started out its run with a 73-54 Senior Night win over Kansas in Morgantown. Even though it looked like a blowout on paper, Carey’s team struggled in the second half, and he knew it.

“I thought we played a lot better in the first half than we did in the second half,” Carey said that night. “But that’s the story of our season.”

So before the team travelled to the Big 12 Tournament, he adapted his coaching plan to make sure that his team closed out games. Even with a quick turnaround time before the trip, the results showed that weekend in Oklahoma City.

In the first game of the tournament, Carey and the Mountaineers stunned the 19th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners from start to finish. West Virginia doubled up the Sooners in the first half, 48-24.

They continued to dominate, outscoring Oklahoma 22-9 in the third, so they could put on the after-burners in the fourth quarter.

The Mountaineers continued to build on the momentum that Carey set in motion. His team was now focused and energized.

In games against Texas and Baylor, where WVU would normally run out of gas in the third quarter, his team remained competitive. In the championship, No. 1 seed Baylor wasn’t even a factor in the first three quarters as the sixth-seeded Mountaineers won their first-ever Big 12 title.

The improbable run to the Big 12 championship propelled WVU to an NCAA Tournament berth, where the Mountaineers eventually fell to the No. 3 seed Maryland Terrapins.
