As icy weather continues to affect driving conditions in Oxford, students have begun to criticize university officials’ decision to remain open. Jamie Hill, a junior pharmacy major, thought keeping campus open Friday led to very unsafe driving conditions for students who commute. “The roads were terrible,” Hill said. “I had to defrost my car for almost 30 minutes because the rain kept falling and refreezing on it.” Hill was driving to his 10 a.m. class when he hit a small patch of ice on Anderson Road. He used more caution as he continued on with his drive but later, he hit another slippery patch of black ice. “I tried to slow down, and there was so much ice I just fishtailed,” Hill said. “I hit the curb onto the sidewalk and then hit the wall at Lafayette Place and flipped over.” Hill walked away from the accident with only a few minor injuries but feels the situation could have been avoided if classes were cancelled or at least delayed until the weather improved. “They can’t get it right 100 per-

cent of the time,” Hill said. “After hearing about all of the wrecks, I don’t think they should have kept it open.” Ben House, junior political science major, said he was very surprised Friday when he woke up to find classes were not cancelled and still had to drive to campus. “I encountered a lot of black ice on the roads Friday morning,” House said. “I even slid off the road onto the shoulder on Anderson because my tires lost traction on the asphalt.” House said it was not fair to expect students who depend on the O.U.T. bus to come to class because the route was suspended. He was also very concerned that pedestrians, who were walking in front of cars at crosswalks, would be hit because of possible ice. “I’m not sure who makes the executive decisions on whether or not the roads are safe, but whoever did was very negligent,” House said. “Overall, I was really disappointed in the university’s decision to have class. They took on a huge liability risk that I don’t think they were fully aware of.” The University of Mississippi’s Crisis Action Team constantly monitors for various threats or incidents that could potentially

occur on campus. The team then interacts with an incident response team, which is in charge of responding to the event and getting campus operations back in order. Noel Wilkin, associate provost and member of the Crisis Action Team, said because safety is the most important factor, the team has a close relationship with both the county and city Emergency Management Administrators. “Any time that anybody has an accident, no matter what day it is, my heart goes out to those individuals,” Wilkin said. “We want all of our community to be safe.” University police chief Calvin Sellers, Dean of Students Melinda Sutton, Director of Physical Plant Ashton Pearson, Chief Communications Officer Tom Eppes and Wilkin are the five individuals who make up the Crisis Action Team. The team receives daily updates, giving them access to a seven-day projection of the weather. “It’s a focus of the crisis action team to monitor the weather,” Wilkin said.“As any event starts to evolve, we step up our monitoring, and we start to follow systems as they develop.” If there is a possibility that

campus will be effected by harsh weather conditions, the team will meet before the event occurs. As the event begins to unfold, the team looks over a checklist that covers all pieces of information required to fill out a recommendation form for closure. “Even with the most sophisticated technology available, they are still just predictions being made,” Wilkin said. The O.U.T. bus is administered through the city, meaning the university is not in charge of their operations. “That was a system decision that they made and then called us and told us that’s what they were doing,” Wilkin said. Wilkin said the decision to keep the university open was the best decision based on all of the information collected, saying the impact of the weather would be minimal. “I ask them when we interact with officials ‘do you see any reason why we would adjust our operation schedule?’ and each one of them said no,” Wilkin said. After a decision is made on campus operations, the team continues to monitor the weather conditions and work to make ad-

The University of Mississippi Nutrition Clinic, sports dietitians and other organizations have set up several events this week to recognize National Eating Disorder Awareness. Hillary Ake, registered dietitian at Ole Miss, organized the week of events to support National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. “I think there are misconceptions of mental illnesses and eating disorders because they are kind of sensitive topics, and people don’t like to talk about them,” Ake said. “It is always good to put something like this in the spotlight, so that people are aware of it, and it can educate people.” This week is important to Ake and others involved in the events because they want to encourage students to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Meghan Edwards, fitness graduate assistant with the department of campus recreation, will be teaching a free yoga class Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. in the Turner Center. Edwards believes yoga promotes self-love and care not only on the mat but also in other aspects of life. “If poor body image and a related eating disorder is one of those places, yoga may help improve upon that image and serve as a reminder that it is important to love and take care of yourself, on and off of the mat,” Edwards said. In addition to the free yoga class instructed by Edwards, there will also be free surveys students can access online throughout the week. Ake said the surveys are designed to be confidential for students to take and to see what personal habits they may have with eating. If they realize they have any bad habits, Ake and others are there for support and guidance.

Letter to the Editor This week, Feb. 22-28, is National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. We applaud the efforts on campus by the Ole Miss Sports Nutrition Department and Panhellenic Council to draw attention to this silent epidemic. The National Eating Disorders Association quotes that rates of eating disorders among college students have risen to 10 to 20 percent of women and 4 to 10 percent of men. While we recognize the vital importance of eating disorder awareness, we believe that the availability of treatment and support is even more important. This cause is highly personal to us, as we have a beautiful, vibrant 22-year-old daughter whose world has been turned upside down because of this life threatening illness. Our journey with eating disorders began in the fall of our daughter’s freshman year at THE DAILY

Ole Miss. Once we became aware of the problem, we diligently sought help for her on campus. We were extremely disappointed in the lack of services or even the availability of references or points of contact for help. We eventually requested therapist names in Oxford from several local pastors, who recommended someone who’d had some experience in this area. Our daughter made great improvements only to relapse several times over the next few years, staying home the spring semester of her junior year as we sought more specialized treatment. After going away to residential treatment in Arizona last summer, she returned to Ole Miss for her “senior year.” The former counselor in Oxford was no longer in practice, but we were excited to discover that there was now

a part-time therapist at the Counseling Center on campus who had eating disorder experience. Sadly, we would later discover that she’d been volunteering her time at the Counseling Center, as there was no budget for a salary for her. She was scheduled to leave the center in December. Another relapse while struggling to stay at school led to eventual withdrawal from the university in September. Our daughter went back to a treatment facility for more help and has since decided to continue her education closer to home and closer to her support system. On Nov. 10, 2014, a group of UM staff including Ms. Leslie Banahan, assistant vice chancellor for Student Affairs, Dr. Mindy Sutton, assistant vice chancellor for Student Affairs and dean of students, Dr. Travis Yates, director of Health

We share our experience with the hope that positive changes will be made and students suffering from this life-threatening illness don’t have to leave Ole Miss to receive sufficient help.

On Tuesday, Feb. 17, the Oxford Police Department arrested a man for burglary of a commercial building. On Friday, Aug. 15, 2014, the Cambridge Station apartment complex reported a burglary of one of their empty units. Further investigation revealed the man had broken into the unit and stolen some of the appliances inside. Police arrested the suspect and his bond was set at $5,000. On Tuesday, Feb. 17, investigators of the Oxford Police Department charged a man from Grenada, Mississippi, with Domestic Violence Aggravated Assault. Police officers responded to a domestic disturbance in progress on Saturday, Feb. 14, 2014. An officer arrived on scene and stopped the assault. After further investigation, police discovered that the suspect used two types of force on the victim, strangulation and threat at gunpoint. The force used on the victim enhanced the crime to aggravated assault. The suspect was charged with Domestic Violence Aggravated Assault and his bond was set at $5,000.00.

justments if needed. “It’s not something that we make a decision, and we just go about our business,” Wilkin said. “This is something that we track constantly as the thing evolves.” People criticized the university and questioned why they continued to operate with the normal hours when ice started to become visible. Wilkin said once a city and campus is already operating it is better to have people staying where they are. “Had the university issued a close statement upon getting icy road reports, we would have sent our entire community onto those roads,” Wilkin said. “That would have been a more detrimental decision to make at that time.” He said the team evaluated the conditions and were seeing reports of some ice develop in few areas, but there were large reports saying the campus was still safe to operate. “We have to base decisions on the best possible information and predictions that we have,” Wilkin said. “The Crisis Action Team is always looking for opportunities for improvement.”

In a research study approved by Pace University’s Institutional Review Board on the National Eating Disorder Awareness website, 165 college campuses were surveyed and found that 73 percent of colleges offer NEDAwareness week activities. Of the colleges, 94.1 percent stated the activities were somewhat important, 36.1 percent said they activities were very important and 58 percent said they were simply important. Ake said it has been a few years since the university has offered events for NEDAwareness week. “It is always good to bring issues like this out on a college campus, especially where they have been shown to be so prevalent on other college campuses,” she said. Janie Cole, registered dietitian and adjunct instructor in nutrition and hospitality management at Ole Miss, wants students to know that the organizations promoting this week are there for students. “It helps to get the word out that this is a real problem, that people are not alone, and that there are people who care and will help,” Cole said.

Double Decker announces musicians, commemorative art CLARA TURANGE

thedmfeatures@gmail.com

The musician lineup and featured artwork for the 20th annual Double Decker Arts Festival were revealed Friday at a press conference in the Powerhouse Community Arts Center. Ole Miss graduate Frank Estrada formed the featured artwork celebrating the anniversary. Estrada graduated in 2013 with a bachelor’s degree in printmaking and sociology and is a current employee of the Ole Miss Athletics Department. For inspiration, Estrada said he “took aspects of what Double Decker is all about as far as where it takes place and what’s involved” to create his project. The musician lineup for the 2015 festival includes names such as Mississippi-native “Water Liars,” and “St. Paul and the Broken Bones,” who were featured on “The Late Show with David Letterman” in January, among others. Double Decker coordinator, Lee Ann Stubbs, said there are many commemorative items and giveaways celebrating the anniversary. “We’ve got some special limited posters,” Stubbs said. “We

This is an opportunity to support something that touches a lot of folks at one time.” Torie Marion, community enhancement coordinator for Visit Oxford, said the planning for the festival has run remarkably smooth this year. “Our new Double Decker coordinator has come in and handled everything – it’s essentially been a breeze for everyone else in our office,” Marion said. “The work will start the week of the festival.” Mary Allyn Hedges, director of Visit Oxford and speaker at the conference, said it is hugely different from the first collaboration in 1996. “The bed of a pickup truck served as the stage that year, and it’s amazing to see how this has grown in the last twenty years,” Hedges said. “You’ve heard this before, but the festival is truly a celebration of food, art and music – all that really embodies what Oxford is all about.”

On the first possession of the game, Ole Miss junior shooting guard Stefan Moody drained a three from the corner in front of the Tennessee bench and knocked down his first of six three-pointers. Once again, Moody led the Ole Miss men’s basketball team (19-8, 10-4 SEC) to a 59-57 win over the Tennessee Volunteers (14-12, 6-8 SEC). Moody played like a man in search of another SEC Player of the Week award, scoring 22 points on 7-of-14 shooting and forcing six steals, which was two shy of the school record. During a sequence late in the second half, Moody exemplified both of those statistics as he stole the ball from Volunteers senior guard Josh Richardson and dribbled it

and proved to be costly late in the game. “The 1-3-1 zone got us back in the game,” Kennedy said. “We turned them over. They had 13 turnovers, and they had a two or three minute segment, where it was very problematic for them. It got Moody in the open floor, and he got to the foul line once, and he made a hard three.” The rest of the game was a back and forth contest, with Tennessee having a chance to win the game in the final seconds. Tennessee senior guard Josh Richardson shot a three-pointer and a mid-range jumper in the final nine seconds of the game, but both were off the back iron giving Ole Miss the win. Ole Miss gambled on that defensive possession and chose not to foul with two fouls to give. “When Josh Richardson, their all-league player, was coming off that hand-off, we wanted to reach out and foul him,” Kennedy said. “I was looking at the clock, and I was FILE PHOTO: ARIEL COBBERT Guard Jarvis Summers dribbles the ball during a game last week. waiting for a foul to happen.

Moody scored eight of his 22 points during a 4:16 stretch when the Rebels went on a 16-3 run to take a 52-47 lead with 8:05 left to play. “I think he’s locked in now,” Ole Miss head coach Andy Kennedy said. “He’s embraced the leadership role.

We’re all for him making some more.” However, it wasn’t just Moody who propelled Ole Miss to a victory. Senior point guard Jarvis Summers found a rhythm offensively to score 13 points and drop eight assists for the Rebels. “He’s playing with a lot of confidence,” Kennedy said. “He’s making hard shots for us. I thought Jarvis really was ag-

score 10-3 Ole Miss. Sikes Orvis led the way with three hits and five RBI’s, including launching his first home run of the year in the seventh inning. “Being a power hitter, the first home run is always the big one, and I finally got that one off my back,” Orvis said. The middle of the lineup carried the Rebels as the three through six hitters in the lineup combined for seven hits and nine RBIs in the game.

GAME 2 - WRIGHT STATE 3, OLE MISS 1

Ole Miss dropped a 3-1 decision to Wright State in game one of a double header on Sunday. Sophomore starting pitcher Brady Bramlett took the hill for the Rebels and was phenomenal from the start. After striking out the side in the first inning, he went on to strikeout 11 batters in six innings of work. Bramlett had great command allowing only one hit and walking just one batter. He frequently turned to his fastball en route to recording a career high in strikeouts. Bianco described Bramlett’s fastball as “ heavy” and like “catching a shot-put“ when it goes into catcher’s mitt. After missing the entire 2014 season, Bramlett has gotten off to a fast start in 2015. “I knew coming back in I had a lot to prove. There was a lot of pressure, but I knew that it would be a special year for not only myself but the team,” Bramlett said after the loss. Bramlett’s strong outing went to waste after Wright State third baseman Gabe Snyder launched a three-run shot off Rebels senior reliever Scott Weathersby in the 7th inning. The homer was

enough to secure the victory for the Raiders. Wright State got a strong outing of their own from junior right hander Jesse Scholtens. After scoring eight runs in game one, Scholtens kept the Rebel bats in check, allowing just one unearned run on four hits in six innings of work. The Rebels got their only run on a throwing error in the 5th inning that scored senior first baseman Sikes Orvis after he doubled to left-center field. Wright State won the game despite being hit by Rebels 5-4 in a pitchers duel and tied tied the series at one.

GAME 3 - OLE MISS 3, WRIGHT STATE 2

Ole Miss won a nail-biting 3-2 matchup in a seven-inning rubber game of the series against Wright State. Senior right-hander Sam Smith was on the mound for the Rebels going three and two-thirds innings giving up two runs on four hits with three strikeouts and a walk. Smith threw just 49 pitches before Wyatt Short came on in relief in the fourth. Short got the Rebels out of a bases loaded jam and pitched the game’s final three and one third innings allowing no runs on three hits. The Rebels got two runs in the third inning to go up 2-1. Wright State answered with a run in the fourth. The Rebels broke the tie with an RBI double in the fifth inning by sophomore outfielder J.B. Woodman that proved to be the difference in the game. After a sluggish start to the season, freshman second baseman Tate Blackman recorded his first hit of the year in the first game of the double header and followed it up with a double in the final game of the series. “When came, it was just off my back, over with, and I can just

Wright State did not go down quietly at the end. The Raiders had the bases loaded with one out in the seventh inning. Sophomore shortstop Errol Robinson caught a hard line drive headed towards left field and then flipped the ball over to Blackman to double off the runner at second ending the game. “Getting a win in this third game was important to us,” Robinson said. “We fought so hard all through the game and even last game, and it just feels so good to come out victorious.” The win gave the Rebels return to action against Arkansas State at 4 p.m Tuesday at home.

GAME 1 - OLE MISS 10, WRIGHT STATE 3

The Rebels took game one of the series against Wright State in cold and rainy conditions Friday. Junior left-hander Christian Trent took the mound for Ole Miss and recorded a career-high nine strikeouts on his way to improving to 2-0 on the season. He went six innings before being relieved. Trent is now 11-0 for his career with the Rebels. “This is one of those days where it’s tough to play. It’s tough to pitch. It takes a lot of feel and touch when it’s raining the whole day, and it’s very cold. (Trent) pitched terrific,” Rebels head coach Mike Bianco said. “If you didn’t know the weather, you would be surprised by the way he pitched. He made it look that easy.” After falling behind 1-0, the Rebels notched two runs in the fourth and four in the fifth. Wright State closed the lead with two runs in the eighth inning to make it 8-3 Ole Miss. The Rebels responded with two of their own in the bottom of the eighth after an RBI triple by Henri Lartigue to make the final
