First day of spring brings warm weather UPD
begins search for indecent exposure suspect BY ADAM GANUCHEAU dmeditor@gmail.com
Staton grew up acting in school plays and participated in theater throughout high school. Staton was cast in the play “Urinetown” her first year as an understudy, but she did not land her first big role until “The Laramie Project.” “She excels in comic timing and character work,” Pulliam said. Both students said they were honored to receive the nominations for the awards. “Of course I was ecstatic, flattered and completely floored because I did not expect it a single bit,” Burke said. Staton was similarly surprised. “I still cannot believe this happened to us,” Staton said. “Na-
The University Police Department is searching for a man who exposed himself two different times on campus Thursday. The incidents occurred within five minutes of each other Thursday around 8:30 a.m. UPD Chief Calvin Sellers urged members of the community to be on the lookout for any suspicious activity. “I would just tell everyone to call us if they see anything strange going on,” Sellers said. “Be aware of your surroundings and try not to be alone, especially at night.” The suspect is described as a black male in his early 20s, between 5-feet-6-inches and 5-feet-8-inches tall and approximately 250 pounds, according to a UPD release that was emailed to all students, faculty and staff members at Ole Miss. He was wearing a gray beanie Thursday, has shoulder-length hair and was driving a blue or black older model Cadillac De’Ville, Buick or Oldsmobile. In August 2011, a white male was arrested for similar crimes on campus. He exposed himself on campus three times over two days and was arrested shortly after. Sellers said that these two incidents are not related in any way, and there is no regular pattern of similar incidents on campus. According to the 2013 Mississippi Code, “a person who willfully and lewdly exposes his person, or private parts thereof, in any public place, or in any place where others are present, or procures another to so expose himself, is guilty of a misdemeanor and, on conviction for a first offense, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $500 or be imprisoned not exceeding six months, or both.” While some students joked about the incident on social me-

Two UM students awarded for performances in ‘The Laramie Project’ BY MAGGIE MCDANIEL mgmcdani@go.olemiss.edu
The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. nominated two University of Mississippi musical theater students for outstanding performance awards for their performances in “The Laramie Project.” Junior BFA student Nathan Burke of Keller, Texas, and sophomore BFA student Rachel Staton from Atlanta were nominated based on their individual ensemble as actor and actress in the play, originally performed last fall on campus. The play is about an openly gay

male who was murdered in Laramie County, Wyo. The awards are part of the 46th annual Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival, which was developed by Roger L. Stevens in 1969 to encourage and celebrate theatrical productions nationwide. Burke and Staton will receive the awards next month at the closing ceremony of the festival April 19 in D.C. “This is very exciting,” said Rene Pulliam, interim chair and associate theater professor. “Think of it as The Tony Awards for college theater.” Burke and Staton recently traveled to Roanoke, Va., with the
production of “The Laramie Project” and the Kennedy Center American College Theater to perform the play for evaluation in the festival. It is rare for two students from the same school to be chosen for the same award, according to Pulliam. Burke said he grew up loving movies and performing and loved to act out his favorite scenes from the movie “Dumb and Dumber.” During his time at Ole Miss, Burke has been cast in nine shows, including both main stage shows for the university and Ghostlight Repertory Theatre shows. “He is a gifted performer who brings something special to all he does,” Pulliam said.

Open your ears and have a seat BY SIERRA MANNIE ssmannie@go.olemiss.edu
While Ole Miss continues to struggle with the racial environment on campus (and, no, spring break was not long enough for anyone to forget about February’s hate crime), another social issue poisons campus, and, if you can believe it, is even less subtle: xenophobia. Xenophobic attitudes prevail inside classrooms and materialize as harsh criticism of foreign professors. Some professors born outside of the United States are consistently harassed and mocked by students, who, having been born in a cardboard box, suffer the grand injustice that is their professor having a strong accent and who may struggle with expressing themselves T H E D A I LY

well in English. Saying that your professor’s accent is the reason your grade is low is a pretty terrible excuse. I don’t know any professor who doesn’t utilize his or her office hours or who wouldn’t take the time to repeat instructions if you asked him or her to do so. Further, nothing taught to you in a textbook is the exclusive knowledge of a singular professor — there are tons of resources, from tutoring to the Internet, available to carry you on the blessed, refreshing breeze to the mountaintop of academic success. Resting in mediocrity and folding yourself into closed-mindedness like a little bigoted paper swan just won’t get you anywhere. The purpose of attending a university, as my friend Charles aptly put it, is to experience things that broaden

This is an institution of higher learning, after all, and one that, despite some students’ never-ending efforts to ruin this perception, does hold intelligence in high regard, whether or not that gift is better wrapped in another language besides English. More likely than not, your foreign professor brought a Ph.D. to this university. All you have is an ACT score and a high school résumé. Have a seat. Listen to people. Know that people who don’t look and sound like you can teach you something valuable. It’s heartbreaking to me to know that these talented, well-traveled, extremely diligent academics have to suffer patronizing attitudes from young people who needed only a pulse to be accepted into this school in the first

Last fall, the theater department’s production of “The Laramie Project” made national news headlines when members of the audience, including an estimated 20 Ole Miss football players, openly disrespected and disrupted the production by shouting derogatory slurs and heckling the cast members on stage. The incident was followed by a series of

talks and seminars as Ole Miss addressed the issues of diversity and acceptance of others. Burke said he found the controversy of the incident fascinating in many ways. “I really believe it happened so that we could learn that we do have a place here at the university, and we do have the backing of not only the Oxford community but the community of theater artists throughout the country and the world,” Burke said. Both students said they were overwhelmed and appreciative of the amount of support shown across the country after the incident, something that they both agreed has made them more secure as actors. “The ‘scandal’ simply proved to me why I do what I do,” Staton said.
dia Thursday, Sellers stressed the importance of trying to keep the public informed during incidents
like this. “We have an obligation to alert the community of potential danger,” he said. “The crime alerts we send out are meant to keep people aware of what is going on in order to keep them safe.”

We learn a lot from each other.”

Associated Student Body officers will travel to D.C. to meet with state representatives and senators as part of the SEC in D.C program. SEC in D.C. is a week for which leaders from student governments in the Southeastern Conference travel to Washington, D.C. While there, they meet with their respective senators and representatives. The purpose of the week is to give students the opportunity to talk about their universities and lobby for whatever needs their universities might have. ASB President Gregory Alston and Vice President Morgan Gregory, as well as president-elect Davis Rogers and vice presidentelect Emerson George, will travel to D.C. on the university’s behalf. Alston said he is looking forward to speaking with the congressmen and their roles in improving higher learning institutions. “I am excited that we have the opportunity to meet with our elected officials about the importance of higher education,” Alston said. “I think this is a great opportunity for the students at each SEC school.”

Giant Puppet Theatre to visit Ford Center BY AUDREY HALL alhall3@go.olemiss.edu
“I can do it, if I try,” Holli Rubin said, when asked what her favorite line in the “Three Billy Goats Gruff ” musical is. Rubin is an expert on the subject, as an actress with and co-founder of Bits ‘N Pieces GIANT Puppet Theatre. “The Three Billy Goats Gruff ” is one of its productions and will be held at 3 p.m. Saturday at the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts. When a musical is performed with largerthan-life puppets, the energy must be absolutely animating. “That’s the theme, that’s the whole idea,” Rubin said. “People can watch this musical and know that they can make the best of their situation and make a difference. There’s just a lot of energy.” The story revolves around the age-old tale of three goats trying to cross a bridge, beneath which a troll lurks. Bluff Gruff, Fluff Gruff and Big Tuff Gruff must work together to best their obsta-
cle: troublesome but silly, bridgedwelling Upchuck the Troll. “Anyone who loves the arts, puppetry, music and costumes will enjoy themselves,” Rubin promised. Ford Center marketing director Kate Meacham is confident that the troupe will put on a great show. “We choose shows based on whether we think they will appeal to local audiences as well as whether they will contribute to the mission of the Ford Center to ‘enrich the intellectual and cultural environment’ of the university and the region,” Meacham said. “Bits ‘N Pieces Puppet Theatre has performed here several times before, and we know that it will be a great performance.” The show employs giant puppets, shadow puppets, rod puppets and actors in costume. “Every seat in the theater is the best seat in the house when you have 9-foot-tall puppets,” Rubin joked. Rubin plays the part of Fluff Gruff and made the puppets for the show.
Courtesy Bit’s N’ Pieces Theatre
The Bits ‘N Pieces Puppet Theatre has dedicated everything to bringing its love of puppets to children all over the world. This is its 40th season, and it has traveled all over the world to share its masterful tale. Countries such as Japan, Taiwan, the Czech Republic, Germany, Trinidad, Guatemala and
Kazakhstan have all been host to the “Three Billy Goats Gruff ” production. “It is a traditional fairy tale, but it still thrills the modern audience,” Rubin said. “We want to inspire. We want kids to rush home to build their own puppets.” This musical of puppets is true
theater art, and Bits N’ Pieces is very excited to come and perform here. Rubin stressed the positive energy and arresting artistry of “Three Billy Goats Gruff.” “It’s a delight to the eyes,” Rubin said. “From the very beginning, right away, you enter the world of giants.”
Music in the Hall hosts new talent BY SARA KIPARIZOSKA skipariz@go.olemiss.edu
It’s a Wednesday night in Oxford, and the venue sign reads “private party, invited guest only.” What could it possibly be? Is it an office party? Not quite. Daniel Morrow, has transformed one of the Square’s oldest buildings into a private concert venue appropriately named Music in the Hall. Since Nov. 6, 2008 Music in the Hall has been hosting hip new music acts from around the states and last Wednesday night, the three
performing acts did not disappoint. Brett Harris of North Carolina brought the sultry pop, Talbot Adams of Oxford came in with a little punk rock, and the Bella Machine Band also of Oxford finished Music in the Hall with an Americana alternative sound. The most perfect description of Music in the Hall comes from the creator himself, Daniel Morrow. “What we aspire to be is some mix of Austin City Limits meets Tiny Desk Concerts meets Daytrotter meets La Blogotheque meets Thacker Mountain Radio,”
Morrow said. Music in the Hall is an intimate party of about 40 music lovers of all ages united for the same cause — to enjoy great live talent. Morrow, a computer programmer turned self-proclaimed “Oxford Music Snob” started off working in the building’s office space and decided to turn his job into a concert venue. Now, Morrow lives in Chicago and visits Oxford about every six weeks to put on the best private concert for some lucky Oxford music lovers. Morrow said the idea for the venue of Music in the Hall came simply because “the acoustics in this room are so great; this is my favorite place to listen.”
Chico Harris, a friend of Morrow and a supporter of Music in the Hall, said the purpose of the concerts is “to hear the people that you don’t normally get to hear.” Harris plans to continue supporting Music in the Hall in any way he can. “I don’t mind setting up the chairs or making three beer runs in one night,” Harris said. “Music in the Hall is tremendous, it’s not just about the music but the people that are there to hear it.” When asked “Why Oxford?” Morrow responded, “There are so many talented musicians, there is always great local music. There is always an audience that appre-

ciates it and wants to go sit down for an hour or two and listen to the music.” Morrow’s selection process for his performances is based on his personal music taste as well as what will produce a good live show. Brett Harris, the opening performance of Wednesday’s show, introduced the audience to an incredibly crisp live voice. A firsttime visitor to Oxford, Harris hit up Snackbar Restaurant right after Music in the Hall and made it clear that he will be “coming back if you’ll have me.” Harris’s new album “Up in the Air” will be coming out this year and all music lovers should check out brettharrismusic.com for upcoming performances and maybe another visit to Oxford in the near future. Music in the Hall’s performances by Talbot Adams and band Bella Machine offered the audience a local taste of Oxford’s musical flavor. For those who missed it, Talbot Adams is a fun must-see who will keep your head bopping all night long. Adams’ next Oxford show will be an album release party April 25 at Ajax. Drawing in the biggest crowd of local fans, Bella Machine, a four member band of Oxonians ended the show with a bang. Tim Burkhead, Ethan Frink, Kell Kellum and Daniel Russell filled the room with waves of alternative rock/pop sounds. Kellum, a crowd favorite, actually attended the very first Music in the Hall in 2008. See HALL, PAGE 5

With future plans of expansion in Chicago and throughout the Southeast, Music in the Hall is a promising heaven for lovers of good music.

Softball to face Rebel Netters to host Arkansas, Arkansas this weekend LSU this weekend BY HAWLEY MARTIN thedmsports@gmail.com
The Ole Miss softball team will host Southeastern Conference opponent Arkansas in a three game series this weekend.

The Rebels (18-4, 1-2 SEC) are coming off a 4-3 win over Arkansas State on Wednesday, while the Tigers (11-9, 1-2 SEC) enter the series on a two-game win streak after topping Milwaukee in a two-game midweek matchup. Junior right-hander Chris Ellis will get things started on the mound for Ole Miss tonight. Ellis has gotten off to a hot start this season, compiling a 3-0 record in five starts with just a 0.82 ERA. Opposing teams have only scored five runs on Ellis through 33 innings of work. Missouri will send junior right-hander Brett Graves to the mound to try to counter.
