Parking garage construction to cut 600 parking spots BY MARA JOFFE
mmjoffe@go.olemiss.edu
Construction of the new campus parking garage to accompany the new basketball arena will cause the temporary loss of approximately 600 parking spots next spring, according to former Director of Parking and Transportation Isaac Astill. Astill addressed the effects of the parking garage’s construction at the Oxford-University Transit Commission meeting Nov. 13. “The parking that will be lost during the construction project is going to push more and more people out to the South Lot,” he said. Astill confirmed that the 600spot loss will affect faculty, staff and commuter parking, pushing faculty and staff into what is now commuter parking and relocating commuters to open parking lots further away from campus. “With us losing all this com-

muter parking,” Astill said, “our goal is for more to use the South Lot, ride the shuttles and increase ridership.” The news raises concern among both faculty and students. “I think you’re going to see a decrease in faculty members being here unless they’re teaching classes, which will hurt student interactions,” said Kathleen Wickham, associate professor of journalism. Despite faculty worries about the future of the parking dilemma, Astill said increased use of the shuttle system has the potential to alleviate parking woes on campus. “On a regular basis right now we have about 1,000 (parking spots) empty,” Astill said. “So even though we’re losing 600, we have plenty of room to absorb that. It’s just a matter of getting people to know where those are and consider using the buses if they don’t want to walk.” The parking garage is slated to
be complete by late August 2014. The garage will include five stories and 829 parking spots, making up for the parking loss in the spring, summer and early fall by just over 200 spaces. The construction project will also shut down Hill Drive, which runs from Coliseum Drive down between the stadium and the Turner Center. The road closure will take place over spring break 2014 and continue through late August of next fall semester. In last week’s meeting, Astill and Ron Biggs, general manager of Oxford Transit Management, discussed plans to reroute the gold bus line during Hill Drive’s closure. With this change, the shuttle service could drop riders off in the center of campus, directly in front of the Lyceum. Astill and Biggs hope this adjustment would encourage more students to take advantage of the bus system. Astill also suggested adding a See PARKING, PAGE 3

Slavery abolished, but wounds persist BY CHRISTINE DICKASON cndickas@go.olemiss.edu
To be honest, at first, I didn’t want to see “12 Years a Slave.” “It would just be too tough to watch,” I told myself. I finally saw it. Was it difficult to watch? Yes. But we must agree to bear witness to the most atrocious part of our nation’s history. Want to understand the recent oral arguments heard in the Supreme Court over affirmative action? Confused by the backlash over Julianne Hough wearing blackface for Halloween? Tired of seeing stories in the media about college students hosting offensivelythemed parties? Go see “12 Years a Slave.” To understand current racial issues, one must understand the historical context in which they occur. These events are not happening in a vacuum. In unapologetic, graphic terms, “12 Years a Slave” brings to life the experiences of Solomon Northup — a freedman from New York who is kidnapped and sold into slavery in the Deep South. The film shows the physical abuses of slavery through brutal whippings, violent rapes and, finally, hangings. These searing images are visceral and nauseating. In some instances, the
camera angle makes you feel as if you are the one being beaten. Yet, I think the film is most effective at portraying the emotional and psychological abuses of slavery. From the beginning of the film, the slave masters are intent upon ensuring submission from the slaves. The white men torment the slaves with disturbing songs, forcing them to participate in their own humiliation. They constantly reinforce the ideas that for the slaves there is no escape, no hope for a better future, no right to expect “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” The slave owners also twist the words of the Bible as needed to fulfill their own purposes, in another form of psychological torture. As one particularly cruel slave owner says after reading a passage about lashes for any slave who disobeys his lord (in this case, the slave master): “It’s scripture.” One of the most haunting lines from the entire film comes courtesy of a plantation owner’s wife. As the newly bought slaves arrive at the house, the wife notices one woman is crying. After learning that the woman is distraught over the separation from her two young children, the wife appears distressed,
and it seems she is feeling sympathetic. Then she remarks, “Something to eat and some rest, and your children will soon be forgotten.” These cold remarks are just one manifestation of the belief that slave masters held so fiercely: Slaves were not people. They were property, to do with what they pleased. This movie once and for all dispels any notion that there were “nicer” slave masters that maybe weren’t so bad. Bottom line: They owned people and believed it was their God-given right to do so. And finally, after so many years, the film refuses any romanticized notion of the Old South. Enough of movies like “Gone with the Wind.” Enough of the admiration of the plantation homes, the ideal of the southern belle and the “good ole days.” Enough of “the South will rise again.” These rosy pictures of the South are despicable. They glorify the past, scarcely pausing to mention the “stain” of slavery. Slavery was no stain. A stain is a small blemish, something that can be erased, removed from existence — and memory — forever. Slavery was a plague on our nation. It was an ugly, brutal, horrific institution that deprived millions of human beings of

their basic rights: It denied the humanity of an entire group of people. Any culture that systematically supported and economically flourished due to the enslavement and brutalization of human beings is nothing to remember fondly. I left the movie theater thinking, “What if slavery had never happened in our country? What might be different today?” There is no definitive answer to that question. Yet, it is clear that slavery continues to have lasting impacts on our society. We are not living in a post-racial America. Disproportionate levels of poverty in the African American community are just one manifestation of slavery’s lasting legacy. In order to confront today’s societal ills, we must engage in a conversation with the past — one that can be truly painful, but at the same time, necessary.

third bus to the route in order to maintain ride times of five to seven minutes. While Astill spoke of a growing reliance on the O.U.T. bus system and shuttle service, he touched on another parking challenge: The university has recently approved the development of new sorority houses on campus directly east of Stockard Hall and Martin Hall. “We may be breaking ground as early as this spring on Rebel Drive,” he said. The new sorority houses will add an estimated 160 vehicles to campus and cost the university 50 parking spaces per house. “I’m excited that another sorority house will be built, but the faculty, students and their cars have outgrown this campus,” said Elizabeth Sales, senior studio art major. The Paris-Yates Chapel parking lot, Magnolia Drive and Dormitory Row West are also future building areas that will affect the university’s parking, according to Astill. “We’re going to be leaning heavily on the shuttle system in a few years to absorb a lot of this,” he said. Astill announced in October that he would be departing from Ole Miss Nov. 15. Buster Clark will serve as interim director of Parking and Transportation while the department continues to conduct a national search for a new director.

First ‘One Big Week’ aims to promote Big Event BY LACEY RUSSELL llrusse2@go.olemiss.edu
Today marks the beginning of The University of Mississippi’s first annual One Big Week, a weeklong occasion promoting UM’s Big Event and community service within the city of Oxford. The idea for One Big Week originated in January of this year. Over the past 11 months, the Big Event’s 19 student committee members have been hard at work coordinating the activity-packed week. “The main goal of One Big Week is to instill the importance of service in our students,” Director Kristin Volker said. “We all lead such busy lives that sometimes we forgot how easy service truly is. We’re hoping through One Big Week we can provide an outlet for service for our students through our Community Service Spotlights.” Each day this week, a new Spotlight Service Project will be offered for students to participate in. Today’s project is Habitat for Humanity, an organization dedicated to building homes for people in need. Tuesday will focus on Love Packs, a program whose mission is to provide backpacks full
of food for children so they don’t go hungry. Wednesday’s spotlight is on Oxford’s own Leap Frog, a tutoring and enrichment program for local at-risk elementary students. The week will wrap up with Thursday’s Service Spotlight on the Oxford-Lafayette Humane Society. “These organizations will be at our Union table giving information about how you can volunteer with us this semester, or even into next semester if you’re looking for more of a standing service commitment,” co-director Madison Coburn said. Coburn and Volker hope students can do their part to make sure One Big Week is a success. “One thing we really would appreciate from all students, especially student organizations, is promotion through social media,” Coburn said. “Just sharing our links, sharing our videos, changing their banners, changing their profile pictures. That’s one really easy way we would encourage students to help us out.” Freshman integrated marketing and communications major Rachael Holman is excited about the opportunity to become involved with One Big Week.

Participants work during Big Event in March.
“Being a freshman, I don’t know that much about the Big Event,” Holman said. “I’m looking forward to participating in One Big Week and learning more about what I can do to give back to the community.” As part of One Big Week, the Big Event committee will host an informational meeting Tuesday at 6 p.m. in Union 404.
“We would love to have 400 students there, but if we have six there, at least we’ve taught some new students about what the Big Event is and how they can get involved,” Coburn said. Volker and Coburn are highly optimistic about achieving their goals this year for One Big Week and the Big Event, which is scheduled to be held in March.
“We’re hoping to raise about $22,000 this year, and we’re hoping to get 3,000 student volunteers and 250 or so service projects to send these students to,” Volker said. “We have very high hopes this year, but with our awesome committee and all of the students that are dedicated to service, I know that we can do it.”

Rebel hoops hang on for road win CONWAY, S.C. (AP) - Anthony Perez hit a pair of free throws with 4.4 seconds remaining to push Ole Miss past Coastal Carolina 72-70 Saturday night. Marshall Henderson had 19 points, including 14 in the second half as the Rebels overcame a halftime deficit. The Rebels (2-0) led just 60-58 with 4:03 to go when Henderson buried a 3-pointer. Then after the Rebels missed a shot on the next possession, he stole a pass in the backcourt and dunked it to put Ole Miss up 65-58 with just over three minutes to go. But the game wasn’t over yet. Henderson’s teammates would miss five of their next eight free throws and Henderson got the ball stolen from him as he tried to dribble around several players with Ole Miss up 66-61 with 1:24 left. Perez then hit two free throws, making Cameron’s 3 at the buzzer meaningless. Henderson’s 19 points led all scorers. He was 6-of-16 from the field and 4-of-8 on 3-pointers. He had four steals, three turnovers and no assists.

out with and the energy level. I thought we were very good in the back. I thought our possession was fantastic tonight. I thought that was probably the key to our success.” This was the first time in school history that the program hosted an NCAA Tournament game, and the Rebels certainly lived up to the moment. Leading scorer Rafaelle Souza continued her blistering pace, recording her first hat trick of the season and becoming
the Rebels’ all-time leading scorer in the process. She now has 44 goals in her three-year career, which is three more goals than the 41 posted by Sarah Comeaux when her college career ended in
1996. Souza is a senior this season, but there is still a possibility of her receiving an extra year of eligibility. “I might play here one more year, so this may not be my last game,” Souza said. Six other Rebels also showed up in the scoring column, including senior Erin Emerson, who scored her first goal of the year. She said that the possibility of this being her last home game as a Rebel and continuing to play in the NCAA Tournament was “exciting.” Senior goalkeeper Brianna Supulski went down with an apparent lower leg injury late in the game. Mott described it as a serious knee injury, and Mott said it will most likely be the last time she will play this season. After their record-setting win, the team’s second all-time in the NCAA Tournament and first since 2003, the Rebels are now preparing to face the top-seeded team in the region in Florida State. The Rebels and Seminoles will battle it out in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Thursday night in Tallahassee.

Ole Miss offense explodes as Rebels crush Trojans BY MATT SIGLER mcsigler@go.olemiss.edu
An offensive explosion of 751 total yards and four touchdowns from junior quarterback Bo Wallace propelled Ole Miss (7-3, 3-3 Southeastern Conference) to a 51-21 win over Troy (5-6, 3-3 Sun Belt). The 751-yard total set a new school record and is the highest in the Southeastern Conference this season. “I’m excited about how our kids performed,” Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said. “We executed fairly well. We had a couple of explosive plays we gave up early and a few too many penalties, but we settled in after that and played really well. It’s always exciting to see those young kids get in. They deserve to play, and we are glad we were able to do that.” The Rebels controlled the game the whole way through and were able to practically do what they wanted on the offensive side of the ball. Ole Miss jumped out to an early lead when Wallace hit freshman receiver Laquon Treadwell from 25 yards out, their first touchdown connection of the day. Troy would answer quickly on a threeplay drive that culminated in a 5-yard touchdown run, but from then on, it was all Ole Miss. The Rebels would add two more scores in the first quarter, the first a 4-yard touchdown run from sophomore running back Jaylen Walton then followed up by a 23-yard touchdown pass from Wallace to Treadwell. Treadwell finished the day with four catches for 53 yards and two touch-
downs but also set Ole Miss freshman records for receiving yards in a season with 477 and touchdown receptions in a season with five. “He’s so physical,” Ole Miss offensive coordinator Dan Werner said of Treadwell. “He reminds me of a young Michael Irvin. That’s how Michael played. Michael wasn’t a huge burner, but he knew how to get open and had very strong hands. When he caught the ball, he’d outphysical you, and that’s what Laquon does.” Wallace would scamper into the end zone from 29 yards out for the only score of the second quarter and the teams would head to the locker room with the Rebels leading 27-7. Ole Miss would then tack on another 17 points in the third quarter, highlighted by a 43-yard score by Walton on a pass from senior quarterback Barry Brunetti and a 24-yard connection from Wallace to freshman wideout Quincy Adeboyejo. It was Adeboyejo’s first touchdown as a Rebel. Wallace finished the day 17 of 26 through the air for 272 yards and three touchdowns and also added 66 yards on the ground on nine carries with a touchdown. “Efficient is probably the best word,” Werner said of Wallace’s day. “He made some really good throws. I didn’t see any decisions that were even close to being intercepted or anything, and that’s the big thing that we’re working on. So I was happy with him.” Troy would get into the end zone twice in the fourth quarter on runs of two and 1 yard, but Ole Miss would continue

to put up points with freshman running back Mark Dodson capping the Rebel scoring with a 1-yard touchdown run. Although the Ole Miss offense received most of the attention, the Rebel defense also played a solid game. Troy was held to -13 yards rushing on the day and explosive quarterback Corey Robinson was held to only 258 passing
yards and no touchdowns. “I thought our guys played really exceptional,” Ole Miss defensive coordinator Dave Wommack said, “from the first series of the game until we put some young guys in.” Ole Miss will cap its sixgame home stand on Saturday when it hosts SEC Eastleading and eighth-ranked Missouri at 6:45 p.m.
