ASB announces 2014 personality election candidates LOGAN KIRKLAND & MAGGIE MCDANIEL thedmnews@gmail.com
The University of Mississippi announced the 2014 personality election candidates Sunday. The elections include candidates running for Mr. and Miss Ole Miss, homecoming queen, homecoming maids and class favorites. Kelly Savage, Associated Student Body attorney general in charge of the elections this year, said she thinks the personality elections serve an important role for the campus. “I think our university and Ole Miss community really gets excited about these personality elections,” Savage said. “It’s exciting to see who
the leaders on our campus are going to be, the people that are going to represent our university at homecoming and also as the name sake throughout the next year.” Savage said during the personality elections meeting Sunday that the rules for campaigning are in place to avoid distractions in the academic environment. “The (classrooms) are places for learning, not a place for campaigning,” Savage said. For example students are not allowed to campaign at all during classes, and only one flyer per candidate can be posted in an academic building. Savage also explained a few more rules about cam-
paigning during the meeting in regard to social media. In addition to campaigning to individuals directly, candidates are now allowed to use applications such as Snapchat and Groupme to campaign to students. According to the ASB Constitution and Code, there are qualifications each candidate must have in order to be able to run in the elections. Miss Ole Miss and Mr. Ole Miss have to have 60 completed semester hours and 12 of those hours must have been completed at Ole Miss. Each candidate must have a minimum 3.0 GPA and have completed 10 hours of community service in the one year

Domestic abuse and double standards RACHEL GRANGER
rjgranger@go.olemiss.edu
Being raised with all boys, it was not abnormal for me to hear my father tell my brothers not to hit me. In fact, I would venture to say that many brothers got the “do not hit your sister” speech daily; however, how many of our girls were taught to not hit boys first? Society has always had this standard when addressing how males interact with females. Hitting a woman is never right, and there is no justification for it. But why do we never address a woman hitting a man? A woman hitting a man is equally wrong; not in the sense that it causes equal damage, but just like a man takes advantage of a woman’s lack of physical strength by hitting her, a woman takes advantage of a man’s responsibility to respect her by hitting him. Over time, feminism has become more prevalent in today’s society. This is the idea that women and men should T H E D A I LY

be treated the same in political, economic and social situations. With that being said, we as women need to keep in mind what we ask for. We want to have the same rights and respect as men in every situation, but when it is time to take responsibility for actions such as abuse, we claim a woman hitting a man is not equivalent to a man hitting a woman. Immediately there becomes that unwanted separation between the two. No longer are we claiming to be on equal playing fields but, as individuals, who are fragile and unable to cause equal damage as a man. When you hit a man, you have stepped out of the realm of women and into the world of men. A person who acts like a lady will more than likely get treated like one. Hitting a man is not ladylike; therefore, men react to this as if they are not dealing with a lady. Does that mean a man should
hit you back? No. It does, however, mean that when he does hit you back, it should not surprise you. Does it make it right? No. It makes him human because reflexes are an expected reaction. We expect men to be right below Jesus when it comes to their patience and ability to restrain themselves in tough situations. But let a woman slap another woman, their immediate reaction would be “hand on jaw.” Whoopi Goldberg said it best, “If you hit somebody, you cannot be sure you are not going to get hit back!” I know this sounds harsh, and I do not want it to be confused with me giving grounds for a man harming a woman. The amount of physical power a man possesses is not equivalent to a woman’s, but why is it always the man’s fault? If the woman hits him, he provoked her, and if he hits her, he is abusive. He never wins, and God forbid he re-

ports that a woman abused him. He would probably be considered the biggest coward on the planet. Abuse is not confined to a particular gender. Although society has painted the man as the sole perpetrator, it does not make him the only guilty party in every situation. A man should never hit a woman, and a woman should never hit a man. We as women need to realize that humanity overrides chivalry, and we need to discontinue taking advantage of a man’s chivalry and forgetting human nature. Even more simple than that, do not dish out what you can not take. So, I am not telling you to not hit a man. Just know what you are getting yourself into when you decide to take that step.

Movie Review: ‘This is Where I Leave You’ COLTON HERRINGTON cjherri1@go.olemiss.edu
Rating: C114 Courthouse Square
“This is Where I Leave You” should have brought audiences to comedy heaven, but instead, this family comedy, centered upon a funeral, leaves viewers about as lively as the late Altman patriarch. Sadly, the film could have worked.

All the ingredients are there – a screenplay adapted from a best-selling novel of the same name, an ensemble cast and a director with a history of family and domestic comedies – but the ingredients alone aren’t enough. There has to be a guiding hand to bring the product to fruition. The blame for the film’s failure could be on director Shawn Levy. The man who brought you films like “The Internship,” “The Pink Panther,” “Night at the Museum” and “Date Night” doesn’t exactly have a solid track record. (Can you guess which of these movies were terrible?) Even so, he’s no stranger to family comedies as shown in 2003’s critically-panned but audience darling “Cheaper by the Dozen.” Yet, somehow, his proven ability at showcasing complicated family relationships doesn’t come into play here. I wanted to love “This is Where I Leave You” and the Altman family, whose family members include matriarch Hillary (Jane Fonda), eldest son Paul (Corey Stoll), sister Wendy (Tina Fey), middle son Judd (Jason Bateman) and youngest son Phillip (Adam Driver). Toss in significant others and love interests and the cast grows to include Connie Britton, Rose Byrne, Dax Shephard and Timo-
thy Olyphant. These are seasoned actors in comedy and drama, film and television, but their abilities are enormously underused and squandered on silliness and poorly written characters. Jane Fonda is demoted to boob jokes and hot grandma status, and Connie Britton and Corey Stoll are given little screen time and even less characterization. But most surprising was a lacking performance by Tina Fey, who delivered her lines like her mouth was wired shut despite being given some of the best material in the film. Not all the characters were a loss, though. Always charming but morose, Jason Bateman and his portrayal of Judd Altman, the main character of the story, manages to prevent the film from bursting at the seams. His reactions and responses to those around him adds a much-needed realistic quality and helps thread the sporadic plot elements together. Also, Rose Byrne and up-and-comer Adam Driver, playing Penny and Phillip respectively, shine in quirky roles and inspire some of the few laughs. The main issue with the film is not the acting, though. The issue lies in the Altman family itself and those around them. The story at-
tempts to highlight the dysfunction of a Jewish family grieving the loss of their patriarch, but it only succeeds in creating a family so flawed and melodramatic that at a certain point I cease relating and begin thanking my lucky stars that I’m not an Altman. In its reach, the film conjures up story lines that fail to propel the plot and includes too many ancillary characters. The number of characters should not matter, though, had the direction been equipped to handle them. Even at a speedy running time of 103 minutes, there was plenty of time to properly tell the story of the Altmans and those around them. Instead, the film needlessly concentrated on shock value and toilet humor, making the Altmans caricatures of themselves and, by extension, caricatures of modern families everywhere. Had the film attempted to showcase the talent more, “This is Where I Leave You” could have been the comedy hit of the fall. While “This is Where I Leave You” does have funny and endearing moments, the film ultimately weaves a tale that turns familial complexity into lampoonery and lacks any real heart or laughs. Levy’s “This is Where I Leave You” only succeeds in leaving you $9 poorer.

on that play. I just gave it all we could, and I’m glad Memphis turned the ball over.” In the previous games, the Rebels’ pass defense had been strong, but teams had found some success running the ball against them with Vanderbilt and the University of Louisiana-Lafayette racking up 180 and 193 rushing yards respectively. It was the polar opposite against Memphis as the Ole Miss defense completely stifled the run game, allowing only 23 yards on 31 attempts. “We were fitting our gaps, flying to the ball,” senior safety

sight into how his defense was able to shut down such a dangerous offense. “We were able to put in a couple of packages we hadn’t run so far this year, and I think that caused some problems for them,” Wommack said. “We just threw some new wrinkles in there, and that helped.” One of the big plays for the Rebels’ defense was junior safety Trae Elston’s interception of a tipped pass that he ran 47 yards back to the Memphis 33-yard line. “It just popped in my hands,” Elston said. “I was a little fatigued

Ole Miss got a tough win against the Memphis Tigers on Saturday with a final score of 24-3. Despite how lopsided the score seems, the game remained close until the fourth quarter, and the Rebel defense carried the team throughout the game. The defense was able to hold a Memphis offense, which had gained a total of 469 yards against 11th ranked UCLA to just 104 total yards in the game, and only three first downs. “I’m extremely proud of our defense; I don’t know if we’ve had a better effort than that in our two-and-a-half years here,” head coach Hugh Freeze said. “They were really phenomenal, and that’s against a team that’s been putting up some really good numbers.”
Cody Prewitt said. “We had a lot of energy, and we were running to the ball and hitting as much as we could. That’s what gave us so much success against the run.” Junior linebacker Denzel Nkemdiche also talked about what the defense did to stop the Tiger’s offense. “We were flying around, doing our job, being in the right place and making the plays we’re supposed to make,” Nkemdiche said. The defense playing so well was huge for the Rebels victory as the offense struggled for most of the game. Senior quarterback Bo Wallace turned the ball over three times. Freshman wide receiver Markell Pack muffed a punt that was recovered by the Tigers, and the Rebels missed a pair of field goals. Freeze gave much of the credit for the offense’s lackluster performance to the strong play of the Memphis defense but also felt that his offense made too many mistakes. “We certainly didn’t help our-

LILAH HENDERSON freshman bio-chemistry “It’s going to be crazy, and it’s going to be super crowded. I mean, I’ve grown up an Ole Miss fan, so I’ve been to the Grove a ton, but as a student it’s like super awesome.”
DRU’KIA JOSEPH senior criminal justice “It’s going to be great. We’ve got people’s family coming in, sisters coming in. It’s going to be so exciting, and it’s our senior year. Not a lot of people get to experience College GameDay, and we will.”
CHRISTIAN MAY sophomore business finance “It shows how much of an improvement The University of Mississippi has made. Just a few seasons ago we won two games, and now we’re being considered for College GameDay. Ten years ago this university probably would have never been considered for it. It just shows what Coach Freeze has done for this school.”
selves offensively with our turnovers and negative plays that were created, but some of that credit does go to them. We obviously have to play better on that side of the football, and we have to make field goals when we get a chance,” Freeze said. The Rebels’ special teams struggles started when freshman kicker Gary Wunderlich was ejected in the first quarter for fighting, leaving the Rebels without their normal kicker for long field goals. Senior kicker Andrew Fletcher, who handles the extra point and short field goal duties for the Rebels, converted on a 19yard field goal in the fourth quarter, but struggled earlier on when attempting longer field goals. Fletcher missed a 40-yard try, as well as a 43-yard attempt. “I was shocked when they said Gary was ejected; that’s maybe
the first time I’ve had a kicker ejected,” Freeze said. “That 4344-yard field goal we missed would have been him.” The offense did have its bright spots, however, as sophomore wide receiver Laquon Treadwell had his biggest game of the season so far, catching five passes for 123 yards and two touchdowns. Treadwell has typically seen a lot of double teams this season but got more single coverage looks this game. “If Laquon gets one-on-one coverage, he’s gonna have a chance to make some plays, and that was good to see,” Freeze said. Running back Jaylen Walton also played well, getting 78 yards on just 10 carries, including a 23yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter to extend the Rebels’ lead. Freeze summed up his thoughts on the overall performance. “I’m very, very excited to be 4-0, and I’m really proud of our guys tonight for battling all the way through,” Freeze said.
WILL PIPES junior corporate relations and marketing “Once I learned that College GameDay hadn’t been to the Grove, I was absolutely astounded. I mean, it’s one of the 100 things you have to do before you die on several lists anywhere. To think that the biggest football network hasn’t been to the Grove, hasn’t experienced the camaraderie, and the all-out school spirit that’s here absolutely blows me away. I’m really excited to have them down here so they can see it first hand, and so the rest of the nation can get a little glimpse of what we’re all about here in Oxford.”

Rebel soccer falls to Texas A&M Aggies 2-1 Sunday CHRISTOPH LUDWIG
csludwig@go.olemiss.edu
The 10th-ranked Texas A&M Aggies (9-1-1, 3-0-0 Southeastern Conference) traveled to Oxford and rallied from a goal down to defeat the Ole Miss Rebels (63-3, 1-1-2 SEC) 2-1 Sunday at the Ole Miss Soccer Stadium. Texas A&M controlled possession for most of the first half but was unable to put the ball in the back of the net, despite having seven shot attempts. Senior goalkeeper Kelly McCormick snuffed out attack after attack by the Aggies. Their high-pressing style kept the ball in the Rebels’ half of the field. Unable to maintain possession, the Rebels managed only one shot on goal, but sophomore forward and midfielder Addie Forbus sent her left-footed shot wide of senior goalkeeper Renee McDermott’s goal. The Aggies earned four corner kicks to the Rebels’ zero. The Rebels made some halftime adjustments, and, from the opening whistle of the second half, the Rebels looked like a
different team. They kept possession in the Texas A&M half of the field, culminating in junior defender and midfielder Maddie Friedmann’s first goal of the season in the 62nd minute. Freshman midfielder Courtney Carroll sent a corner kick into the box, and junior defender Jessica Hiskey got a touch on it before Friedmann headed it home. “My job is to anticipate where the ball is going to go, and I saw that she was getting a flick on it, so I ran to the goalie and just got a little touch,” Friedmann said. “It was probably my first real goal since being on the team. It was exciting.” The lead didn’t last long, however, as senior forward and midfielder Allie Bailey answered for Texas A&M. In the 72nd minute, Bailey took the ball at midfield and weaved her way to the top of the Ole Miss penalty box. She turned and curled a shot past an outstretched McCormick into the top corner of the net. Just seven minutes later, senior forward and midfielder Shea Groom ran down the far
side of the Ole Miss penalty box and slid one past McCormick from a tight angle along the touchline. A furious Rebels’ rally with just seconds remaining came up short. A foul by the Aggies on sophomore forward Sara Coleman near the edge of their box gave the Rebels a great opportunity to tie the game late, but two Rebel shots glanced off the post, and time expired shortly after. “We have to create more chances,” Ole Miss head coach Matthew Mott said. “I don’t think we’re clean enough up front. They’re a good team, and they’re not going to give you a lot. We just didn’t create enough today.” Despite the tough loss against a top team, the Rebels are remaining positive. “I think we took a big step,” Friedmann said. “We proved to everybody that we can hang in there with the best of them.” The Rebels are back in action PHOTO BY: THOMAS GRANING at Auburn at 7 p.m. Friday. Their next home game is Friday, Oct. Liza Harbin and Texas A&M’s Janae Cousineau go up to head the ball during the game in Oxford Sunday. 24. against Missouri at 7 p.m.
