Campaign spreads domestic violence awareness in town LASHERICA THORNTON STAFF WRITER

Mary-Margaret Chaffe’s best friend was murdered a decade ago because of a domestic violence dispute. From that moment forward, Chaffe wanted to be an advocate for prevention of domestic violence. “When it happened, I never thought about anything else but wanting to be an advocate for domestic violence,” Chaffe said. “I don’t even think I said the words ‘domestic violence’ before my friend was killed.” Now working with Family Crisis Services of Northwest Mississippi, Inc., Chaffe seeks to make Oxford aware of the dangers of domestic violence. Mayor Robyn Tannehill and the Board of Aldermen declared October Domestic Violence Awareness Month in Oxford after Chaffe submitted a proclamation with current statistics on domestic violence in Mississippi. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, one in four women and one in seven men will experience physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime. More than half of survivors of rape, violence and/or stalking by an intimate partner experienced some form of intimate PHOTOS BY: MARLEE CRAWFORD partner violence for the first TOP: Mary-Margaret Chaffe (second from right) and other Family Crisis Services workers spread domestic violence aware- time before turning 25. ness on the Square on Tuesday.

domestic violence awareness and prevention,” Chaffe said. “I went to Mayor Tannehill’s office, and it couldn’t have been an easier process to get something this important to be kind of stamped on Oxford.” During the first week of October, the Oxford Police Department and the Lafayette County Sheriff’s Department began displaying purple ribbon magnets on their vehicles and wearing purple ribbon pins on their uniforms. Purple is the color used for Domestic Violence Awareness month, and is seen as a symbol of peace, courage, survival, and dedication to ending domestic violence. Wearing his pin, OPD Sgt. Ryan Winters described the importance of law enforcement’s support of domestic violence awareness. “It’s important to let people know that we’re here to help,” Winters said. “Of course, it’s our job to protect and serve, but a lot of times, it’s domestic violence victims who usually don’t feel protected.” Family Crisis Services will distribute domestic violence awareness items like pens, clothing pins and bracelets. Chaffe also said the group will pass out pamphlets about Family Crisis Services and answer questions. Ten signs reading “Love Shouldn’t Hurt” will be around town at locations such as at the OPD and

STAFF WRITER

Peter Hamby, head of news at Snapchat, will speak at 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the Overby Center. Hamby has an extensive background in political journalism and has worked at CNN as a producer and reporter. He covered the 2008 and 2012 presidential elec-

tions for CNN and was named a breakout reporter by Politico in 2012. He was also a fellow at Harvard’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy. In spring 2015, Hamby left CNN to work for Snapchat as its news head. Hamby has his own series on Snapchat called “Good Luck America,” which focuses on covering the current administration’s politics.

I follow politics a lot, and I know he is a big social media and politics guy, so I hope he touches on that

tomorrow,” Bielat said. Senior integrated marketing communications major Brenna Clay said Ole Miss is the perfect place to host someone like Hamby. “The Meek School is so well-known that it only makes sense to have someone like Hamby, a news editor for a thriving social media app, to speak here,” Clay said. “Not only will it be cool for students to hear him speak,

tion 3 was my progressive step toward mastering the internet. However, I had one illogical view regarding my own online presence. I felt safe in an online world. Yet, when I was just 14 years old, I began dismantling the locality of internet service providers (ISPs) and searching for their true motives on how and why they restrict content. Even as a young teenager, I was analyzing Time Warner Cable’s monitoring provisions on viewing personalized content, while other teenagers watched stuff like MTV. And then it happened. I met two out-of-the-box thinkers on PlayStation Network. These two gentlemen took a strong liking to my self-guided interest into ISP privacy sectors and mentored me in what the internet service industry would become. Additionally, these tech geeks trained me to interpret critical information on how and why ISPs do what they do. It sounded like some farfetched governmental conspir-

acy theory, but it wasn’t. Many local ISPs were analyzing the flow of private data for personal gain. I’m glad I didn’t take this knowledge for granted. As I grow older, I’m starting to grow increasingly paranoid about acceptance of the internet, especially in my home region. Edward Snowden’s reveal of the NSA’s espionage tactics in 2013 didn’t aid my acceptance of ISPs; rather, it decreased my enthusiasm for the general web. Just this year, Donald Trump appointed the FCC Chairman Ajit Pai to reduce openness of the web in 2017 by giving localized ISPs the power to regulate what they want on the current internet plane. But that raises an alarming question. With this former Verizon employee who views the internet like major corporations do in control of federal internet policy, will the gathering of information online be restricted by the few major tech companies in the near future? Mississippi, where I’m from, is, in fact, the caboose to prog-

ress that the rest of the nation hauls forward. Since just two years ago, nearly a third of Mississippians did not have access to high-speed broadband internet, some might ask: Will Mississippi be limited forever? Not if we don’t interpret the past and prepare for the future regarding localized ISP internet regulations. Today, Mississippi enjoys the privilege of obtaining any important information from the web. YouTube and Facebook are just the tip of this content iceberg of what ISPs can provide. ISP regulations in the state are currently stable from monopolist interest, but who knows for how long, given the steps provided by Pai nationally. Giving individuals the freedom to surf online and gather information freely and locally is the ultimate, modern lifeline for the Magnolia State. Woody Dobson is a senior journalism major from Tupelo.

take notice of and, I hope, ask questions about,” she said. “If not, at least it’s going to be in their mind. You see a sign that says, ‘Love shouldn’t hurt.’ Your daughter sees a sign that says, ‘Love shouldn’t hurt.’” Chaffe said she hopes the domestic violence awareness campaign will stick in peoples’ minds. “When you see any of these displays of awareness, know it represents the ones who cannot speak for themselves anymore,” Chaffe said. “For the ones that have survived and spent every day putting their life back together and for the ones who suffer in silence.”

“School newspapers play a critical role in informing and entertaining their campus communities, and they are often where the many leading journalists and editors that we work with got their start,” Snapchat said in a statement. Clay said that if the university is able to partner with Snapchat and use Campus Publisher Stories, it would be a game-changer for how students receive news. “I think the real selling point is that it would be instant information that you can get right away. To be honest, the only time I pick up the paper and read through it is when I find one when I’m bored, so I think a lot of students would be for using Snapchat to find out what’s going on around campus,” Clay said. While the university has not yet partnered with Snapchat for Campus Publisher Stories, Ji Hoon Heo, an assistant professor of integrated marketing communications, said it would get more students interested in news on campus. “I don’t think we are part of the Campus Publisher program yet, but I do think

it could impact in terms of reach for the campus. According to a study done by Pew Research, over 80 percent of Snapchat users are 18-24 years old, so that would help reach the audience in ways we weren’t able to in the past,” Heo said. Robin Street, a senior lecturer in journalism, said she thinks there is a strong possibility that the majority of all news will eventually be online. “Many of us do wonder about the future of journalism and where it is headed. I do think there is a strong possibility that newspapers will one day be all online,” Street said. “One thing that concerns me is that today’s non-journalism majors don’t seem to understand where news comes from.” Street said she is also concerned about “fake news” that can cycle through social media and that she wishes there was a way to screen it. “I am very concerned about the fake news that appears on social media. People pretend to be from reputable news sources (and) post fake items online, and people believe them,” Street said. “We very much need journalists to help uncover and report the truth in a concise, easily understandable and trustworthy way.”

Social media apps including Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat have certainly made an impact on how people get news today. Senior journalism major Kailen Locke said social media allows more people to be engaged. “Social media has completely changed the way we get our news and lets us access news at any time or place. It lets people from all around the world contribute their perspectives and helps us to get a better understanding of what is happening in the world,” Locke said. “When a speaker like Peter Hamby comes to visit, I think it’s important that students take full advantage of the opportunity to learn as much as they can.”

Nashville band to bring indie-pop energy to The Lyric MADELEINE BECK STAFF WRITER

Nashville is typically known for its country music and lifestyle, but with emerging talents like COIN, that’s becoming more of a false stereotype. Formed at Belmont University, the indie-pop quartet COIN has been writing, recording and performing since 2013. It consists of Chase Lawrence with lead vocals and synths, Ryan Winnen on drums, Joe Memmel playing guitar and singing backup and Zachary Dyke on bass. Last year, the band was on tour opening for the band Bad Suns, performing songs from its 2015 self-titled debut album produced by Jay Joyce. Billboard described it as “new wave crash-course survivors,” while some fans coined it an American version of The 1975 with fuller instrumentation. Lawrence, the lead singer, names bands like The Cure as “huge influencers.” The band released its second album, “How Will You Know If You Never Try,” in April and announced American and European tour dates.

PHOTO COURTESY: BILLBOARD

The new album has received praise from internet music authorities like Soundfiction and Riff Magazine. Riff Magazine went as far as to say COIN’s new album is “a force to be reckoned with; a band whose infectious party anthems will be uttered in the same breath as those by bands

like Grouplove, Passion Pit or Walk the Moon.” COIN released one of those anthems, “Talk Too Much,” as a single before the second album’s debut, and it took off with more than a million YouTube views on the music video and 27 million listens on Spotify. It is arguably the band’s most successful hit, scooping up the eighth spot on the Alternative Songs chart and No. 28 on the Hot Rock Songs chart, the first time COIN has made it on either list. Luckily for Oxford, COIN will be performing at The Lyric Oxford just after making its appearance at the Austin City Limits Music Festival this weekend, and Ole Miss stu-

dents are looking forward to it. “I’m excited to see how they alter their style in concert versus just listening to their discography on Spotify,” junior physics major Anna Laura Stevens, who has been listening to COIN for the past year, said. “They are pretty much featured on most of my playlists. And I have over 300 over those.” Sophomore integrated marketing communications major Nancy Manroe said COIN has held on to its energetic style while growing more popular. “I have been listening to COIN since high school, and they only had one album and a couple of singles out when I listened to them for the first

time,” Manroe said. “They keep getting better. Their new album is very fun, high-energy and current.” Manroe, who has seen COIN live before in its hometown of Nashville, is excited to see the band in her own city of Oxford, especially to hear the newest album live. “COIN was amazing,” Manroe said. “The lead singer is very active on stage and gets close with the audience.” The Lyric will open the doors at 8 p.m. tonight, while the band should be hitting the stage at 9 p.m. Tickets are $15 to $30 on The Lyric’s website and will be available at the door.

Polar opposites lead tight race for MLB’s MVP

COLUMN

BILLY SCHUERMAN STAFF WRITER

In one corner stands 6-foot-7-inch, 282-pound right fielder Aaron Judge. The man who broke the Babe’s record for at-home home runs in a season. Thirty-six of his 55 slams have exited the field at Yankee Stadium this year alone. To provide context for Judge’s accomplishments, he broke Mark McGwire’s rookie home run record this season and is leading the league with 52 homers on the year. But perhaps most impressive, he is the first and only rookie to have ever won the Home Run Derby. Not to mention that he hit the farthest home run of the year at 495 feet. In the other corner stands Jose Altuve, a 5-foot-6-inch,

165-pound second baseman who just had another 200-hit season and currently leads the league in wins above replacement (8.3), a metric used to calculate a player’s total contribution. Juxtaposing size, speed and power, both players are leading the 2017 race for Major League Baseball’s MVP. In a realm defined not by power or distance but by reliability, Jose Altuve ages like a fine wine. In his seven seasons in the MLB, he has gotten better every single year. This season, he has a batting average of .346 and is slugging .547 while maintaining a .410 on-base percentage. He is the respective leader in all three categories. In 2015, when the Astros made it to the American League Division Series, their first postseason run since losing the World Series in

baseball, they tend to think of the Yankees, a team that spent $225,228,650 on players alone this season. The Astros’ stadium, Minute Maid Park, holds 41,676, but average attendance is just 29,675. They fail to dominate a national market that the Yankees have had a grip on for the last 20 years. In terms of this postseason, Judge has struggled as pitchers have found his Achilles heel — the slider. Judge had the most strikeouts of any player in the league, with 208 during the regular season, but when he connects, he goes deep. This comes at the expense of plenty of strikeouts. Experts have also noted that Judge has a tendency to rotate his front shoulder out towards third base which leaves him exposed to low and away breaking balls. He has 21 strikeouts this post-

2005, they lost a heartbreaking 2-3 series to the Kansas City Royals. Altuve has survived a 106-loss season, a 107-loss season and an 111loss season. But after the loss to Kansas City in 2015, a series in which he recorded three singles in 22 at-bats, Altuve walked into manager A.J. Hinch’s office and apologized. He said he wasn’t going to let it happen again. Then, the very next season, he placed third in the American League MVP vote. Despite Altuve’s astronomical stats this season, Aaron Judge has received almost every second of baseball airtime on major networks. Why? Because Judge is a rookie and has the market. The New York Yankees are the second most valuable sports team in the world, trailing only Jerry Jones and his Dallas Cowboys. When people think of

season and set the record for most in a single postseason series with 16 against Cleveland. This season, Judge has taken a lot of strikes low and outside his strike zone. Perhaps umpires are not used to framing such a large player; Judge is one of the biggest players MLB has ever seen. But on the other side of the debate, Altuve has a similar problem, only he gets called for strikes above his zone. Altuve has had his fair share of problems, but none of them equate to Judge’s current strikeout vice. The 2017 MVP race is tight, but Altuve’s consistency and performance cannot be ignored. With that said, Judge is not the perfect MVP candidate many originally thought him to be. Only time will tell which player ends up on top.

Three keys to volleyball victory in Baton Rouge ETHAN WRIGHT STAFF WRITER

Following last weekend’s assertive 3-0 victory over South Carolina, Ole Miss volleyball prepares for a midweek trip to visit the LSU Tigers. Scheduled for 8 p.m. Wednesday night in Baton Rouge, the Rebels are attempting to break above .500 in SEC play against a Tigers squad that currently sits third in conference standings, with a 6-4 SEC record. The Rebels certainly have their work cut out for them, as the Tigers are not only undefeated at home this year, but they are also boasting a fourgame win streak, the second longest in the SEC. Despite the Tigers’ impressive record, the Rebels can still pull out a much-needed victory. Here are three keys to victory for the Rebels: Limiting playmakers Last week’s “Players of the Week” roundup featured three of the Tigers among its five honorees, an unsettling realization for any Rebel volleyball fan. Freshmen Raigen Cianciulli and Taylor Bannister were awarded Defensive Player and Freshman of the Week, respectively, while sophomore Anna Zwiebel nabbed Co-Setter of the Week honors. The three young playmakers top an impressive slate full of emerging stars, each dangerous and capable of hurting Ole Miss from anywhere on the court. Head coach Steven McRoberts’ focus should, first and foremost, be on countering LSU’s three-headed dragon while limiting its production and, ultimately, choking the Tigers out of their typical game plan.

Players chant the fight song after their 3-2 win over Georgia earlier this season. Breaking the chain So far, Ole Miss has failed to win vital SEC games, and its rankings have suffered as a result. While a 4-4 conference record is good enough for above-average placement within the conference, it has done little to set Ole Miss apart from some of its more talented competition. McRoberts and his squad should focus on breaking the cycle of repetitive, uninspired play in SEC matchups. Two recent 3-0 losses to SEC

teams show the Rebels’ recent tendency to lose momentum after dropping early sets. Ole Miss must harken back to its early-season play, a time when close, 3-2 wins were second nature, and retrieve the necessary inspiration to take down the Tigers. Behind enemy lines While the exact measure of a team’s home-court advantage can be difficult, if not impossible, to quantify, it is hard to argue LSU’s home
