Job placement rates vary by school after graduation

The University of Mississippi has established an average job placement rate of 85 percent in 2013 in almost all of its schools and departments, according to the 2013 Annual Survey Report. Out of the seven schools that participated in the job placement survey, the School of Dentistry in Jackson and the pharmacy and engineering schools in Oxford were the schools with the highest job placement rates. The schools with the lowest

job placement rates among the seven schools were The Meek School of Journalism and the School of Education. The university does not require students to complete post-graduation survey information; there is a 20-25 percent response rate from year to year, according to the university’s Career Services Department. The Engineering School at The University of Mississippi had 156 graduates in May 2014. Alexander Cheng, the dean of the school of engineering, reports that most engineering students have job offers at the time

of graduation, and of those that do not, many will have secured a position within six months. According to the School of Engineering, the average salary of a mechanical engineer who graduates from UM is $70,000. “The Engineering School continues to strive for better placement of our students,” Cheng said. “As engineering enrollment has doubled in the last few years, we realize that we need to double up our effort. We are pleased to face the challenge.” In comparison, graduates employed by the Mississippi Department of Education with ini-

tial certification are scheduled to earn $33,390 in 2014-2015 according to the Mississippi Adequate Education Program. The School of Education at The University of Mississippi had 336 graduates in 2013. Of the 336 initial program graduates, 86 percent hold a Mississippi Department of Education teaching certificate. Of that number holding certification, 57 percent are employed with the Mississippi Department of Education, according to the Assistant Dean of Education Amy Wells Dolan. The job placement for grad-

uates employed by the Mississippi Department of Education has increased since 2010. For example, in 2010, 52.5 percent of UM graduates earning the Bachelor’s of Education were employed on new certification by MDE. In 2012, 62.84 percent of UM graduates earning the Bachelor’s of Education were employed on new certification by MDE, although this data does not include graduates employed in private schools or other states. “The job placement rates for

“Some Like It Hot.” Tyler Perry’s Madea. Hell, even the Disney classic “Mulan.” The ever-popular “man in a dress” gag has been a comedic staple for longer back than I care to trace. If a director or writer is scrambling to toss in a surefire laugh, a man in a dress never fails. We’ve all fallen for it: the laughable sight of a tall, broad figure with a gruff voice and hairy knees poking out from underneath a skirt. We all love to laugh, and we’ll take any excuse we can get to get our jollies. But it’s worth examining exactly “why” we think the idea of a man wearing culturTHE DAILY

ally designated female clothing is so knee-slappingly hilarious. America’s gender binary sets up some very clear rules for what clothing is acceptable for what gender. Men can wear pants, suits, tuxedoes, boxers. Women wear skirts, blouses, dresses, high heels, pantyhose. Given the cultural recognition they receive, nonbinary people wear invisibility cloaks. These rules are not hard and fast in all directions, as women wear pants all the time now. Sure, in the ‘20s and ’30s people threw up a stink about it, but we’re much more advanced than that now, right? We’ve moved on from such primitive, puritanical understandings of clothing. Except that we haven’t. Not at all. That’s why the man in the dress is still a hilarious trope. It’s okay for women to dress “like men” because in America, there’s nothing wrong with being masculine. In fact, we tend to regard masculinity as the normal

or neutral. That’s why people in pants and shirts are considered androgynous while those skirts or dresses aren’t. But there’s nothing inherently masculine or feminine about pants or skirts; they’ve just been imbued with particular cultural understandings. The cultural understandings we’ve given to “male” clothing are positive, though. A woman in a suit isn’t funny because she, in the popular view, isn’t “degrading” herself the way a man in a dress is. A man wearing a dress is seen as forfeiting his masculinity for the clearly lesser femininity. Men in dresses are only funny because we think that a man should never stoop so low as to wear feminine clothing. Culturally indoctrinated misogyny: it’s hilarious! Now, I’m not demanding that every man on campus immediately run out and start buying and wearing dresses (even though personally, I think it would be good for every man to

wear a dress at least once. It’s a piece of clothing, for god’s sake; it’s not going to bite you). But I am asking us to examine a comedic device that not only degrades women but also reinforces the absolutely incorrect and harmfully transmisogynistic idea that trans women are really just “men in dresses.” Besides, if a man wants to wear a dress, so what? To quote comedian Eddie Izzard when asked about wearing women’s clothing, “I wear dresses. They’re not women’s dresses, I buy them.” If the clothing belongs to you, and you’re a man, then it’s a man’s dress. Women wear women’s dresses and nonbinary people wear their dresses. Of course, if you’re a man, and you’re wearing a woman’s dress, give it back to her. It’s wrong to steal, and she’s probably been looking all over for it.

news the School of Education are excellent,” Dolan said. “As the School of Education for the state’s flagship institution, we strive to produce the largest number of high quality graduates well prepared for and dedicated to improving student learning and teaching in Mississippi schools.” Dean of the School of Law I. Richard Gershon said that nine months after graduation, 85 percent of the class of 2012 were employed or had entered a graduate law program of some sort. Moving forward to 2013, 93.2 percent of the class made up of 190 students were employed or attending graduate law programs within nine months of graduation. After graduation, it was reported that the class of 2013 had a mean salary of $75,423 at a law firm, according to the School of Law. “We are regularly ranked in the top 20 law schools for value, based on bar (examination) pass rates, employment and cost of attendance,” Gershon said. “Lower debt allows graduates to pursue a broader range of opportunities.” The majority of students work at private practice law firms with 2-10 attorneys in them, according to the 2013 annual survey data. Gershon said it is a great time to go to law school because the job market is improving, and law school class sizes are decreasing. Also ranking in one of the top job placement rates is the UM Pharmacy School. The UM Pharmacy School had 91 graduates in 2013, and 100 percent of those graduates have found a job, according to Dean of Pharmacy School David F. Gregory. Gregory said the biggest competitor for the UM School of Pharmacy is the University of Tennessee in Memphis. In addition to its excellent job placement rate, the pharmacy school reports that graduates can enjoy an average entry-level salary of $100,000 to $120,000 a year. Gregory believes that they focus on the quality of their graduates and their ability to provide the highest level of care for the patients they will be serving in various settings. “I believe our high placement rate is a direct reflection of this effort,” Gregory said. The School of Business Administration is one of the five most popular majors at the university, but it does fall short in job placement. For the 2012-2013 academic year, the School of Business Administration had 580 graduates, and for the 2013-2014 academic year, it had 556, according to Dean Frank R. Day and professor of finance Ken Cyree. Cyree said their surveys show

Rioult engages Oxonians before performing Wednesday TYLER KELLY & CLARA TURNAGE

Michael Spencer Phillips wandered between the upstretched hands, teetering through jungle music occasionally interrupted by scratching feet on a matted floor. The students mim-

icked his and the other leading dancers’ movements like marionettes, controlled by the gentle critiques of their puppeteer. Rioult Dance New York is a highly credited modern dance company on tour celebrating their 20th anniversary. Rioult will perform at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Gertrude C. Ford Center. Instead of

solely performing, however, they also held workshops for students and citizens to learn firsthand what a professional dancer’s life is like. On Sunday, members of Rioult met in Lamar Park to perform and meet interested citizens of Oxford. “It was beautiful to be able to do some of Pascal’s choreography in a natural setting,”

Phillips said. “To have a park as your stage is pretty spectacular.” Monday, the Rioult crew held a master class for Ole Miss dance students and visited the Lafayette High School for a workshop. Norman Easterbrook, director of the Gertrude C. Ford Center, attended the workshop at Lafayette High School.

“This is an extraordinary opportunity for these students, especially for students on our campus to get an opportunity to see something that they’ve never seen before,” Easterbrook said. “To me, that’s what part of the university education is all about – to get to do things that, ordinarily, you

continued from page 4 wouldn’t try to go do.” The Ford Center also offered free tickets to Wednesday night’s performance to anyone who attended the workshops and classes. “If a student comes to observe a rehearsal or anything, we make it so they get to attend the performance,” Easterbrook said. “Those students have had the chance to work with a world class modern dance company with some noted dancers and some really noted people.” “The beauty of the university and Oxford is the university brings so much culture,” said Laura Smith, whose daughter, Virginia, participated in

the workshop. “We’re in this small community, but we get so much.” Kate Meacham, marketing director at the Ford Center, also attended the workshop. “I think that, for many of the students here, this is something so very different than anything they’ve ever experienced,” Meacham said. “This is a modern dance company. Unless you’re following modern dance, you don’t really know what it is. For them, a lot of them never had any dance training or any dance class. It’s sort of a whole new thing to work with someone who is a professional dancer.” These workshops are part of a program Rioult has recently implemented, DanceReach. “I think that students really benefit from seeing and experiencing this type of work

simply because modern dance is an American art form that was created here in the United States,” Phillips said. “A lot of young people as well as adults don’t know about modern dance and contemporary dance. The performing arts are just beautiful because they are always different and always changing. When something happens on stage, it’s not the same as a painting or a sculpture. Everyone brings their own life experience to it, but then they see different things. As artists, each performance is different.” Based in New York City, Rioult is led by the founder and Artist Director/Choreographer Pascal Rioult. Joyce Herring, Rioult’s wife, is the Associate Artistic Director and had danced with the company for a decade.

The organization was originally operated in Rioult and Herring’s New York City apartment. “For a while the office was their living room, and they employed dancers on a part time basis,” Phillips said. Phillips explained that the company slowly grew on the foundation of Rioult’s engaging choreography. “Pascal’s work has continued to evolve and develop,” Phillps said. “His work is incredibly complex but incredibly beautiful.” Today, Rioult will present a company class from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m and a rehearsal from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Ford Center; both are free and open to the public.

The repertory pieces that will be performed on Wednesday are “Bolero,” “On Distant Shores … A Redemption Fantasy,” “Views of the Fleeting World” and “Wien.” Each piece is unique and depicts a story for the audience. The dancers of Rioult said they love what they do. One performer, Sara Seger, said she enjoys the personal interaction with Pascal Rioult. “I think he pushes each individual dancer to grow in their own way,” Seger said. “It’s a rare opportunity that a boss is concerned about the process of getting to be a stronger artist than just producing the product.”

tion this team has put on the Ole Miss Football Program. This team has revived Ole Miss football and put the program on the map nationally. I especially encourage fans to appreciate this senior class in the last three games. This class has persevered and fought for four years to bring Ole Miss from a 2-10 team in their freshman year to the national contenders you see today. This senior class is largely responsible for changing the culture and perception of Ole Miss football. They fought through the difficult times and worked tirelessly to produce a winning team that Rebel fans would be proud to watch, and they have done exactly that. This senior class will have a special place in Ole Miss football history. Do not give up yet, Rebel Nation. This team is not ready to give up just yet. The journey is still young, and there is a lot left to play for in the 2014 season.

As a life-long resident of this state, I, as well as the majority of other Mississippians, can attest to the importance of that game. The intensity of the Egg Bowl is always high and will be even higher this year with what is at stake in the game. It would be a huge plus on the season if the Rebels can ruin State’s possible playoff chances with a win on our own home field on senior day. A win against your in-state rival is always a huge boost to the end of a season as well as leg up in recruiting for the coming off-season. Lastly and most importantly, I encourage Rebel Nation to continue to support this team the last three games of the regular season. Do not lose sight of how far this team and program has come in such a short amount of time. After these losses, it can be easy to lose sight of all the excitement, exposure and atten-

Having been around Ole Miss football my entire life, I have seen some pretty tough losses and difficult moments. Whether it was the blown illegal touching call on Shay Hodge that cost Ole Miss a would-be upset win over Alabama in 2007 or an overtime loss to division 1-AA Jacksonville State in 2010, Ole Miss has dropped some difficult and heartbreaking games over the years. Saturday night’s loss to Auburn is definitely the most crushing I have been around as an Ole Miss fan. Losing the game and your number one offensive playmaker sophomore wide receiver Laquon Treadwell all in one play on the 1 yard-line is gut wrenching. The loss is

one. That being said, there are some positive things that came out of the game. Senior quarterback Bo Wallace played his best football game of the 2014 season and probably of his Ole Miss career. The defense struggled but got key stops when the game was on the line. Probably the most important thing to take away from Saturday was the resiliency the Rebels showed. The Rebels fought until the final play of the game. This team is a resilient and tough group of guys; I have no doubt they will come back fighting after this loss. Going forward into the finishing stretch of the 2014 season, the focus should be on a number of different things. First, there is still a lot to play for in the remaining weeks of this season. Ole Miss still has a chance to record a ten win season for the first time in over a decade. The Rebels also still have an outside shot at the SEC west title with some help from other teams. Next, the Egg Bowl is the

even more tough to swallow given what was on the line. The game was essentially an elimination game for a spot in the College Football Playoff. In my eyes, the Rebels deserved to win that game on Saturday night, but it was just not in the cards. One thing I do know about this team is that they will respond. There is too much senior leadership on this team for them to throw in the towel. This team is too close-knit and too strong to let things slip away from them. As disappointing as the game on Saturday night was, it is hard not to be proud and appreciative of the fight that this football team showed on Saturday night. I am not a fan of moral victories at all, and I’m not labeling Saturday night as

ing his role increase, as I am (sophomore) Quincy Adeboyejo and (freshman) Markell Pack,” Freeze said. “We have to discuss this week a possible (sophomore) Derrick Jones move back with this open week and all the time we have to prepare for the last part of our season.” Senior quarterback Bo Wallace will be one of the players who will miss Treadwell’s presence the most. Wallace connected with Treadwell 10 times for 103 yards and one touchdown. Sophomore tight end Evan Engram and Sanders both accumulated over 100 yards receiving each. Wallace also talked about who needs to help fill Treadwell’s void. “I told Pack Saturday night that he has to step up, and he’s not a freshman anymore. Obviously, Vince is going to be the older guy and go-to guy, right now. Every time we’ve needed Vince to make a play, he’s made it, so I have confidence in our receivers,” Wallace said. “I know they are going to make plays for me. It’s going to hurt not having Laquon, but we still have a lot

to play for this season.” The injuries kept piling on for the Rebels, continuing for their brutal return from Baton Rouge, where injuries on key players came up and had an affect in the game against Auburn on Saturday. Freeze addressed the other injuries the team is dealing with. “The list is long. (Junior running back) I’Tavius (Mathers) and (junior defensive back) Trae (Elston) both had concussions. They’ve started our concussion protocol. We’ll have to wait until the doctors clear them for them to return back to practice,” Freeze said. “(Sophomore offensive lineman) Laremy (Tunsil) has a partially torn bicep. One week wasn’t quite enough for him to feel like he could function. Now, we can get him, hopefully, ready for the last stretch.” There were other injuries on the offensive line besides Tunsil, something Freeze talked about also. “(Junior offensive lineman) Aaron Morris left the game and didn’t finish. He’s getting

some tests done today. I don’t think it is anything that will keep him out for the remainder of the year,” Freeze said. “It just made us even more thin at the end of the game than we were already. (Junior center) Ben Still will be day to day.” The loss to Auburn has major implications on the playoff race for the Rebels and most likely knocks them out of the first College Football Playoff. Despite the loss, there is still a lot to play for the rest of the season. Wallace talked about how the season looked after the loss to Auburn and is still optimistic about the season. “We don’t feel like we’re out of it. Obviously, we don’t control our destiny anymore, but crazy things can happen in the SEC. A lot of people still have to play each other, so we’re hopeful good things can happen for us, and we can win all our games down the stretch,” Wallace said. “We have to come in and prepare and come out and have good showings in every game.”

After practice on Monday, the injury suffered by sophomore wide receiver Laquon Treadwell was still heavy on the hearts of the team. Treadwell underwent surgery after

the game for a dislocated ankle and a fractured fibula. “The outpouring of love and support that Rebel Nation and others have given him certainly has been heartwarming. When I got there early Sunday morning, he was good,” Freeze said. “As a competitor

and a guy that’s dealing with not being able to play the rest of the year, and the fact that he was involved in the play that, in his mind, he let us down in some way. Certainly, we don’t feel that way.” The recovery time for Treadwell’s injury was feared to be lengthy and could cost him more than this season. Freeze revealed that the recovery time for Treadwell is four months, and he could possibly be back by spring practice. For such a gruesome injury, this is the best possible news for Treadwell. Freeze explained the process for Treadwell to recover and showed immense support for his receiver.

“He has to deal with all of that. We’re going to help him do all of that. Everyone else will, also. He’s a tremendous young man,” Freeze said. “We’re looking at four or so months of recovery time. He’ll be back with us and hopefully, ready to go for spring ball. We love him and appreciate the effort he gave in helping our team in that situation. Now, others will step up and carry it on.” The rest of the wide receiver group has to step up in the absence of Treadwell. Freeze discussed the players that would need to step up in Treadwell’s absence and said senior Vince Sanders would please drink responsibly

be the new number one wide receiver. “Vince, like we’ve talked about many times, he’s one of the more underrated players in this conference. He continued to win a bunch of one-onones the other night. I think Vince will respond extremely well,” Freeze said. “He had some good things to say in our team meeting yesterday, being a senior and a quiet leader.” Many of the younger receivers need to be more mature for their age, something Freeze stressed to the media and his players. “I’m excited about see-
