This graph represents monthly provisional reportable disease statistics for people affected with HIV statewide and in District 1, which includes Lafayette County.

According to Takilya T. Davis, health educator at the university’s Health Promotion Center, the UM Health Promotion Center started testing students for HIV for free around November of last year.

The free testing was offered by the Mississippi Department of Health. The department offered to provide kits; all the university needed to do was get the word out to the students.

The Health Promotion Center has advertised the free testing through multiple forms of social media.

According to Davis, she says statistics show that there is a high risk for HIV and that the cases are rising for the 13 – 25 year olds. The CDC is working with the Mississippi Department of Health to try to get as many people in that age group tested as possible.

Davis also mentioned Ole Miss is not the only school in the state given this opportunity.

Many other schools, including Southern Miss, are taking advantage of this offer as well.

Since the beginning of this semester, Davis said she has had about 50 or so students come to

her to be tested for HIV. Davis thinks the testing is a great idea, and results come in fast. She does not understand why students wouldn’t want to take advantage of it.

“It’s free. It would make sense to come because it doesn’t cost anything, and it only takes 20 minutes at the most,” Davis said.

According to Dr. Travis Wayne Yates, director of University Health Service at the student health center, the free testing is more of a grant given to the university by the Mississippi Department of Health.

Previously, students would receive an STD testing in the health center clinic for a charge of $35. This testing included the HIV testing along with tests for other STDs. Now, students can get a free test done by Davis in the Health Promotion Center upstairs of the Student Health Center for free on Thursdays.

According to the Mississippi State Department of Health, the state had the seventh highest rate for HIV infection in 2011.

The department also recorded that Mississippi reported 547 cases of HIV in 2012.

UM American Pharmacists Association hopes to educate students about drug abuse

BY JULIE LABERGE jklaberg@go.olemiss.edu

The American Pharmacists Association strives to teach the youth of Mississippi about the dangers of over-the-counter medication and prescription drugs.

The association just finished their Generation Rx initiative for the semester. The program, held April 24-27, included speaking with seventh through 10th graders about how prescription and over-thecounter drugs, although beneficial, can be dangerous if abused or not taken properly. This was the first year the American Pharmacists Association was able to do this, and they hope to branch out to other schools in the future.

dent, explained why the program lasted for one week.

“We just did it for one week because we have never talked to students before and wanted to get a feel for how we come across to them,” Kelley said.

The American Pharmacists Association gave presentations and involved the students in their projects.

Kelley explained how difficult it can be to relay the message to a younger crowd, since younger people are often under the impression that bad things aren’t going to happen to them.

“We thought it would be a good idea to show these students what addiction is like and hopefully prevent addiction before it starts,” Kelley said.

Kelsey Stephens, a first year pharmacy student and the president-elect for the American Pharmacists Association - Academy of Student Pharmacists chapter at Ole Miss, coordinated and developed Generation Rx. Stephens said the idea for Generation Rx originated from the increase in prescription drug abuse in recent years.

“We decided to address this issue by educating the youth in the local community,” Stephens said.

Stephens said prescription drug abuse is an important issue that needs to be addressed early on.

“We believe that making an impact on students at a young age COURTSEY GENERATION RX

Farewell from Anna Rush

BY ANNA RUSH akrush1@gmail.com

I started writing for The DM my first year of law school because a friend asked me to fill in for her column, and it has been a great experience.

For one, writing has been a creative outlet — a refreshing break from writing legal memos and briefs. It also has fine-tuned my writing. Narrowing somewhat complex issues into a 400 word or less opinion is challenging, especially in contrast to the verbose, all-inclusive legal-style of writing.

I admit that most of my articles have not stirred the pot as some of the other DM columns have.

I have not addressed the Greek community or, heaven forbid, the right to wear leggings as pants.

Quite frankly, I felt there were more important issues worth my time.

When I touched on social issues or issues in local or national news, I tried to my best to find a common ground among the different opinions on which to stand.

My reasons behind that decision were multifaceted.

For starters, putting something in print has lasting effects. I tried not to put anything in print that could later haunt me. In that same vein, I tried to keep my opinions as centered as possible, lest I change my mind later and regret it.

Opinions are funny things to me.

People tend to dig their heels in deep and cast issues as black or white. I see opinions as an ever changing, revolving door that reveals different shades of grey. (No, I’m not referring to that book you once caught your mom reading.)

Letter to the Editor: Prescription drug culture Dear Editor,

As of May 10th, I will be a graduate and alumnus of the University of Mississippi. This is something I say with an unquantifiable amount of pride and an equal amount of sadness.

I know I am not the only one, but I am so incredibly sad to be leaving the University of Mississippi that I can hardly put it into words.

I came here as a wide-eyed 19-year-old from Virginia, who had only ever been to the real South once or twice in his life.

I floated the idea of going to school elsewhere, but Ole Miss was ultimately the best choice I could have ever made.

The people I have met here, the places I have seen, the experiences I have had: All these factors have led me to fall in love with Oxford, Miss. There is nowhere else in the world like it. I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that the four years I have spent here have been the best of my life.

It was not always smooth sailing. The typical stresses of finals, projects and homework always drag everyone down. But, even the bad times were pretty damn good, simply because I was here.

Sure, Ole Miss has also seen its share of controversy, but at the end of the day, we are all Rebels.

We are a community that, admit it or not, loves one another because we are all Rebels. Whether in sports, a party, a class or a concert, I have seen more unity and compassion here than anywhere else I’ve ever been.

To the freshmen, sophomores and juniors that still have time left here: Enjoy it. Love this school and this town with everything you have.

We live in a culture where prescription drugs run rampant.

In today’s society, Americans seek a fix-all in the form of a bottle of pills. From problems with anxiety, sleep issues and “attention deficit,” Americans believe pills are the solution. Indeed, there are people who benefit and actually need these prescriptions, but many of whom drugs are prescribed to do not.

ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) are two of the most commonly diagnosed disorders in the U.S. Might I add, misdiagnosed?

A startlingly large amount of people diagnosed with these disorders do not actually have it.

There are rigorous, thorough psychological evaluations that must be performed before a person should be diagnosed as having an attention deficit disorder. Simply experiencing bouts of not being able to focus does not qualify one as having ADHD – this is simply normal behavior, especially in children.

In turn, the misdiagnosis of ADHD leads to abuse and dependency of the medication associated with the disorder.

As students across the country gear up to take finals, many will illegally acquire and abuse ADHD medication because our culture dictates that they need it. This category of drugs was designed to help people with attention problems focus better.

It would follow that these drugs would help anyone focus.

More and more concerns are being raised about the diagnoses of ADHD as the number of children diagnosed continues to

I see this as a major problem rooted in the stigmatization of mental disorders.

Since American society does not take mental disorders seriously, there is a carelessness to which ADHD diagnoses are approached that is crippling American youth, many of whom are learning addictive behaviors from these medications.

increase.

An article that appeared in the New York Times last year raised growing concerns from doctors who feel like the astronomical rates of ADHD diagnoses are startling. While medication does help those who have ADHD, it can also cause addiction, anxiety, and even some psychosis, the article said.

It is estimated that ADHD affects about 3 to 7 percent of children. As of last year, approximately 11 percent of children had been diagnosed with ADHD. This high number of children being diagnosed with this disorder is astounding, at least to me.

Many doctors feel pressure from parents to push a diagnosis onto their children, and the necessary tests and ruling out process is circumvented.

back with the same amount of gratitude and love as I do.

Ole Miss is truly a magical place, so do not take a single second here for granted. Sure, you can come visit after graduation, but it’s not the same. Right now, your job and responsibility (other than class, obviously) is to have as much fun as you possibly can. You are in the best position to do that here, so do not miss out.

As my life moves on, from undergrad to a weird limbo between choosing a law school or applying for jobs, I look back on my time here with nothing but fondness and satisfaction.

So thank you, Ole Miss.

Thank you for everything.

Thank you for the Grove, football games and beer showers at baseball games. Thank you for Walker’s Challenge, the free concerts, the library and the Library. Thank you for Funky’s, the Round Table, the Levee, bonfires at Sardis, Rowan Oak and Double Decker.

Thank you staff. Thank you professors. Thank you faculty.

Thank you for it all.

As I move into the next chapter in my life, I know I go well equipped with both knowledge and memories from my tenure here. I may be physically graduating, but the words of Frank E. Everett, Jr. ring true.

“The University is respected, but Ole Miss is loved. The University gives a diploma and regretfully terminates tenure, but one never graduates from Ole Miss.”

Thank you, Ole Miss.

will affect their future livelihoods by helping them better understand the dangers of improper use of prescription and over-the-counter medications,” Stephens said.

Kelley said a lot of people assume that because a drug has been prescribed by a doctor, it must be safe.

“Some people don’t even realize they are abusing them,” Kelley said. “They just assume they are safe for you.”

Kelley described events called “pharm parties,” where students take their parents’ prescription drugs to other people’s houses, put them all in a bowl, and take pills at random.

In some cases, these are causing adverse effects, and can result in death.

“They are not just taking pain killers, but diabetic and blood pressure medications, not even knowing what they do,” Kelley said.

Cleanup, recovery, grief follow deadly twister LOUISVILLE, Miss. — One family Wednesday celebrated the improving health of a daughter who they once feared had been snatched away by a tornado, while another prayed that searchers would find a missing 8-yearold boy whose parents’ bodies were found flung far from their home.

Loss and survival were the prevailing themes following Monday’s powerful twister, which destroyed more than 300 buildings as it ripped a half-mile-wide path through Louisville, a hill country town of 6,000. Authorities began to focus on cleanup and recovery, while family members of the nine dead grieved.

Late Wednesday, President Barack Obama signed an order declaring a major disaster in the state of Mississippi, clearing the way for federal assistance. The declaration applies to areas affected by severe storms, tornadoes and flooding that struck Monday.

At the University of Missis-

sippi Medical Center in Jackson, Coysheena and Willie Mitchell said their 4-year-old daughter Ashtyn, though still in intensive care, was getting better. A firefighter found the child after the storm, cradled in the arms of a dead Ruth Bennett, who owned the child care center that Ashtyn attended.

Coysheena Mitchell said she was still trying to find a way to express her gratitude to Bennett’s family.

“Thank you is not enough,” she said.

The Mitchells set out after the tornado to try to retrieve their daughter, growing more alarmed as they approached the center, in a hard-hit area across the road from Winston Medical Center. They arrived to find the former building blown from its foundation and strewn across the ground.

But dread turned to joy when the Mitchells were reunited with Ashtyn at the damaged hospital.

“I said ‘That’s my baby right

there,’ and she said ‘Hey, daddy,’” Mitchell recounted. “It did something to me. I wanted to cry with her.”

With a broken left femur, Ashtyn has a cast on both legs and may need more surgery.

She also has internal injuries.

But she’s no longer on a ventilator and is asking to go to her grandfather’s house or the zoo.

“All she keeps telling me is she and Miss Ruth fell in the bushes and they said she had to go to the doctor,” is how Coysheena Mitchell describes Ashtyn’s version of events. “I don’t think she can process it.”

Meanwhile, searchers continued to look for the missing 8-year-old son of Terri Tucker and Sean Fowler. Winston County Coroner Scott Gregory said Tucker and Fowler were found more than half a mile from their home off Mississippi 397, thrown into an area with splintered pine trees and debris on the east side of the town.

In February, there were five. The state total for Mississippi in January 2014 was a reported total of 36 people and a total of 50 in February 2014.

Jessie Malone, nursing coordinator at the Student Health Service, believes it’s a good thing the testing is being provided for free.

“I think everyone should get tested and know their status.”

Malone said.

Nina Brown, a sophomore psychology major who wants to attend physician assistant school, supports the free testing for students.

“I think it’s great, we need

to give people opportunities to get tested as early as possible,” Brown said.

Brown also mentioned that the health center does a good job with going about testing students for STDs. “It’s important that people feel that it’s a confidential environment, so they feel comfortable going to get tested,” Brown said.

Yates explained that STD testing happens every day but is hardly ever advertised because people don’t like to let others know that they have been tested for an STD. Yates said he thinks the free testing is highly beneficial for students, and they should take advantage of it.

“It is very good thing. It’s supported by the CDC and the state department of health. We are trying to be an arm of that and include the Health Department of Students,” Yates said.

SPECIAL TO THE DM

Rosco Bandana

BY BRIAN POWERS

Growing has its pains, and Rosco Bandana has been experiencing them.

Hailing from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, the band won the first “Hard Rock Rising” contest, and was given a record contract four years ago. Since then, they have been touring the country and show no signs of slowing down.

One thing is for sure, Rosco Bandana is living in a comfortable state of transition.

Two months ago, the band replaced their original drummer Barry Pribyl. Surprisingly enough, the replacement has not caused a missed step in the path to becoming a successful band touring America.

After playing a set on the blistering stage at Oxford’s Double Decker Festival, Pat McGinley, the band’s newest member, reflected on the experience that led to that moment.

“I got the phone call on a Tuesday afternoon and had to learn all of the material for a showcase in Nashville that Friday,” McGinley said. “We rehearsed 15 hours a day that Wednesday and Thursday to get me up to speed.”

McGinley said he feels like a

fully contributing member of the band.

“It has been a lot of hard work to get to this place, but I feel I’m playing the best music that I’ve ever played, with people that are ridiculously talented,” he said. “It’s a dream come true, and this is just the beginning.”

Jason Sanford, the guitarist, lead vocalist and songwriter, has learned that hard choices have to be made that might alienate some fans.

“People have a lot of preconceived ideas of what it means to be signed to a record label,” Sanford said. “They think that there is a lot of glam to it. We did also, but couldn’t have been more wrong about that.”

Sanford said the band now has a better idea of what it takes to be a “successful musical organism.”

The band has shed their preconceived notions of how their life will change after signing to a record label.

“We’ve always had the mindset of wanting to take it to the next level with every show,” Sanford said. “We’re constantly trying to make ourselves better.”

Sanford has gone through multiple member lineups on his way to forming the band that best suits

their intended musical concept.

“I’ve been playing a lot of these tunes for six years with different players,” he said. “The songs take different shapes when different factors are added, and that’s necessary to function as a successful band.”

The band has not always been successful. In fact, they had a rather rough start.

Sanford started his musical journey with a bandmate who did not attend the band’s second show.

However, he did not let the lack of dedication deter him.

“I told them that it was going to be fine,” Sanford said to assure the other members of his band. “The songs are there; let’s just go out and play them.”

Sanford has been forced to make decisions in regards to three other members when different situations arose that affected the band.

“Those decisions were hard to make, but necessary,” Sanford said.

“We’ve definitely been through a lot as a group, and there is plenty more that we’ll go through.”

Sanford said that the current make-up of Roscoe Bandana is the best it has ever been.

“I believe that this is the optimal lineup if we all stay positive and continue to be cohesive,” he said.

The rest of the band agrees.

“The shows are much more intense and cohesive,” mandolinist Jackson Weldon said.

Jennifer Flint, the band’s vocalist and a member of the original line-up, agrees with Weldon’s sentiments.

“I think that the current state of the band is on the right track, finally,” Flint said.

Theband recently finished a tour with the band Fun, have played at Turner Field after an Atlanta Braves baseball game and have shared the stage with

many well known bands such as the Avett Brothers and the Trey Anastasio Band at many festivals around the country.

The influx of success does not mean that Roscoe Bandana is planning on taking a break. McGinley is amazed at the work ethic of his band.

“We rehearse twice a week between tours,” he said. “Things keep getting bigger and better.”

The band’s debut album, “Time to Begin,” on Hard Rock Records, is available through iTunes and Amazon.

Rebel Netters earn NCAA Tournament bid

BY DYLAN RUBINO thedmsports@gmail.com

After the long wait, the Rebel Netters qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the 21st consecutive year on Tuesday and will travel to South Bend, Ind., for the first round.

The Rebels (15-13, 4-8 Southeastern Conference) will have no easy task to start the tournament as they face 32ndranked Northwestern. The winner of the match will face the winner of Green Bay and No. 13 Notre Dame.

The Rebels ended the season on a strong note, picking up SEC wins against No. 8 Texas A&M in the final home SEC match of the season and against No. 20 Tennessee in the SEC Tournament. The Rebels’ SEC Tournament run came to an end by losing to Kentucky in the next round.

With the strong finish to the season, the Rebel netters are very excited for NCAA tournament play.

“We are really excited about our draw,” junior Nik Scholtz said. “We definitely got one

that’s beatable, and we’re going to work really hard these next two weeks to prepare for it. We faced some challenges at the end of the season, and I am really proud of the guys

for stepping up and taking us to the NCAA Tournament.”

The Rebels are led by Scholtz, who garnered the honor of SEC Player of the Year for the season. Scholtz

finished the season ranked 9th in the nation in singles, which is the highest ranked SEC players in singles. Scholtz finished the season with an overall record of 15-1 at No. 1 singles.

The Rebels first opponent in the NCAA Tournament, Northwestern, ended the regular season with a 21-10 overall record, going 7-4 in See NETTERS, PAGE 11

COLUMN

The jinx is over dlcollie@go.olemiss.edu

Everyone, remember that loss to Jacksonville State back at the beginning of the 2010 season?

It was the beginning of the downfall of Ole Miss football under Houston Nutt, and it was also my first game as a student here at Ole Miss.

It wasn’t my first Rebel football game though.

I had been to plenty of Ole Miss games growing up. I remember the good times with Eli Manning behind center and the bad times with Ed Orgeron on the sideline. All I wanted was for Ole Miss to be good when I got here, and well, you know the rest of the story. Nutt and the Rebels went 4-8 during my freshman year and 2-10 during my sophomore year.

Then, I turned my attention towards basketball. Maybe they would do things no one expected.

Nope. But hey, at least they were competitive.

Then, along came baseball season.

I had been going to Ole Miss baseball games since 2004. I knew, at the very least, that the Rebels would be in a regional somewhere, but again, nope. It was the first time the Diamond Rebs missed postseason play in eight seasons.

It was arguably the worst freshman year someone could have; and honestly, it wasn’t that surprising.

In eighth grade, I transferred to a school that was favored to win the state championship in basketball. Well, they were upset by a Cinderella-type team in the semifinals.

In high school, our football team went to the state championship game two years in

a row but lost. Both years, I only went to the state games because I was in Oxford watching Ole Miss.

It kind of became a joke. I was a jinx, and I was the reason Ole Miss was losing.

Then, came a big change.

Hugh Freeze was hired as the head man for the Rebel football squad, and Ross Bjork took over for Pete Boone as athletics director. There was finally some new, fresh life in the Ole Miss athletic department.

In year one with the duo at the helm, Ole Miss somehow was invited to a bowl game and finished 7-6. Then, this past season rolls along, and they do one better by posting an 8-5 record. In between all of that, Freeze signed the best recruiting class this school has ever seen.

In basketball, a man by the name of Marshall Henderson came along and guided Ole Miss to its first NCAA Tournament berth since 2001.

The baseball team still wasn’t where they were when super regionals became the norm in July each year, but they were competitive. And now this season, they look to

be a lock to host a regional, barring a late-season collapse and could even get into national seed consideration.

Things are finally heading in the right direction for Ole Miss sports, and it’s been fun watching the turnaround.

Now that I’m graduating, Ole Miss can take that next step.

Football is on the horizon of one of the most anticipated seasons in some time coming in the fall. Basketball will have some good talent, and the new arena will be built. And, baseball is on the brink of something they haven’t done since 2009.

And if they get back to being in a place to break the door down and go to Omaha, it won’t be me holding them back.

It’s been a fun four years, and I try to only focus on the good memories.

The LSU football game this year was my favorite game as a student.

For basketball, the win against Kentucky my freshman year will always stay with me.

And for baseball, nothing can beat Bobby Wahl scoring

The Wildcats made it to the semifinals of the Big 10 Tournament, but lost to No. 2 Ohio State 4-0. The Wildcats are led by 46th ranked Raleigh Smith, who finished the season with a 13-10 record at No. 1 singles.

process. Ole Miss led three different times in the game, but Southern Miss’ seven runs on 10 hits were enough to get the win. Ole Miss will face SEC foe Arkansas at home this weekend.
