Chancellor Dan Jones inspects the Army ROTC

BY BRITTANI ACUFF brittaniacuff@gmail.com

The Army, Naval and Air Force cadets of the ROTC at The University of Mississippi held their annual Pass in Re-

view ceremony Thursday at the Lyceum. Ole Miss Chancellor Dan Jones led the ceremony. “This is some of the best of Ole Miss here,” Jones said. “And this is really important

for us to recognize the dedication, commitment and courage of these students and the decisions that they have made to protect our homeland and protect our freedoms. And it’s also good to recognize the positive

influence they have on our campus.” The ceremony began with an invocation followed by the national anthem. During Jones’ address to the cadets and audience, he stressed how important members of ROTC are to the university. “We are a stronger and better university because of their presence,” he said. The Pass in Review began after Jones’ address. The purpose of the ceremony was to demonstrate as a force that wherever troops are needed across the globe, they are ready. Senior cadet battalion commander Matthew Astorino elaborated. “The chancellor’s review is an opportunity, in a nutshell, for the different branches of ROTC to show off in front of the university leadership,” he said. “It is our day where we ensure that our programs, especially our instructors, are recognized for all of their hard work.”

Junior Naval ROTC midshipman operations officer Tyler Jackson said the officer development program does a great job of preparing cadets for commission. “It gets us trained to start our careers,” he said. Senior Army ROTC civil affairs officer Ryan Mitchell said it was an honor to have Chancellor Jones representing his unit by addressing the event. “By him doing it, he’s giving approval of our unit,” he said. Mitchell said ROTC is a major part of his life and joined to serve his country, but it turned into more than that. “I want to be a leader in the most professional organization in the world,” he said. Jones concluded with his gratitude toward the armed forces. “I have a profound appreciation for people who are willing to put themselves forward in the military to protect our freedom.”

Students getting ready for the upcoming presidential election Tuesday morning citizens of the United States will go to the polls and vote for who they want their leader to be for the next four years. BY JUSTIN TAYLOR jdtaylo2@go.olemiss.edu

The 2012 presidential election is less than a week away, and the deciding factor could once again be the youth vote. Some students at Ole Miss are aware of each candidate’s positions and strengths, but they are still in the process of deciding for whom they will vote, based on different aspects of the candidates’ platforms. Freshman theatre major Jasmine Hawkins, focusing on social issues, said she finds herself agreeing with President Obama’s open stance more than with that of Gov. Mitt Romney. “(Obama) gives us more of an option to choose — such

as abortion,” she said. “It’s not an automatic, ‘You’re wrong.’ It’s more like you have (a) choice.” Junior print journalism major Tanner Marquis, however, said he thinks the most important issue right now is the state of the economy. “Mitt Romney, I feel like, is going to be way better for the economy than Obama would be,” he said. “(The economy) doesn’t affect just government, it affects the individual.” Senior exercise science major William Shaw agreed with Obama’s policies on energy. “I do believe that we should focus on creating jobs using renewable energy sources,” Shaw said. “I think that’s important as we

continue on to the future.” However, Shaw does not support the president’s new health care law. “I do believe everybody is entitled to have care,” he said. “But then again, I do believe that we all should take the initiative to work to earn our own health care, not basically (have it given) to us from the government.” Associate professor of journalism Debora Wenger said she believes that media portrayal is a primary cause of the country’s division on issues. “In terms of media portrayals, people who favor one candidate or the other always think that their candidate is being mistreated by the media,” she said. “I See ELECTION, PAGE 4

I love biased journalism BY ALEXANDRA WILLIAMSON aewillia@go.olemiss.edu

I love it for many reasons. I love it because it helps me expand my knowledge of others’ opinions, I love it because it helps me understand the arguments for and against my own opinions, and I love it because it opens my mind to opinions different from my own and from those of my friends. I am an avid reader of Reason magazine, an unabashedly libertarian magazine based out of D.C. Personally, I learn far more from reading Reason articles than I do articles from CNN. Without the need to seem unbiased, Reason can publish analyses of news from a number of points of view, and that’s far more helpful than posting opinions posing as facts. Now, this is only really applicable when the publications in question are legitimate; if they’re talking about chemtrails and the government using the High Frequency AcT H E D A I LY

tive Auroral Research Program (HAARP) to orchestrate Hurricane Sandy, you’re probably getting a load of crock. Making the distinction between news and analysis of news is important if you’re looking to read things from a particular perspective, obviously. But you, the reader, likely hold some strong views of your own. Reading writers with whom you agree can help you strengthen your argument and consider policy alternatives that had never crossed your mind. Reading those with opposing opinions can help you find the weaknesses in your arguments and just possibly change your mind about things. I used to be a huge Republican; I had a “Thank You President Bush” bumper sticker on my first car (I’m not proud of it, but it’s true). But I talked to one of my friends who sent me some articles and studies that showed me what a colossal waste of resources the War on Drugs is, and I began my deep, dark de-

scent into libertarianism. Everyone is biased. Journalists for prominent publications are often prohibited from ever giving a political opinion or supporting candidates publicly. Honestly, that’s completely the wrong way to go about it. I’d much rather know what someone’s biases are so that when I read their pieces, I can see it through that filter. That kind of information is much more valuable out in the open than hidden behind layers of false detachment. For instance, Keith Olbermann was suspended after donating to three Democrats’ campaigns in the 2010 midterm elections. The MSNBC policy regarding political donations stipulated that employees had to clear their political donations with the network before sending them off. Now, Olbermann blatantly disregarded these requirements — there is no doubt of that. But the fact that employees have to clear political donations with their employer

seems rather uncomfortable to me. I’m not advocating for a law against this sort of policy, but if we were to lift our ridiculous expectation of anchors to be completely unbiased, this sort of thing wouldn’t happen. I mean it’s not like Olbermann was accused of being a shill for the GOP or anything before the donations, so how did that change anyone’s perception of him? Unbiasedness is a worthy goal, don’t get me wrong. But it’s simply unattainable. No one can be free of bias, and try as humans might, our backgrounds and predilections for or against things inevitably sneak into our opinions and thoughts. As well as pure facts would serve the public, journalists with defined and readily researchable biases come up very closely behind.

We are the same (respect diversity) BY WANFEI WU wwu@go.olemiss.edu

This past Sunday, Oct. 28, was the most important feast on the Muslim calendar, Eid al-Adha festival, the Feast of Sacrifice. By commemorating this event, Muslims are following the footsteps of prophet Ibrahim, who showed willingness to obey Allah (God) in everything, even if he was to slaughter his own beloved son. What a great privilege it is to feed and help the needy and make them all equally happy and joyful on this day! The Ole Miss Muslim Students Association (MSA) hosted the festival and invited everyone in Oxford to eat, play games and enjoy each other’s presence in the Grove Sunday afternoon. I got the chance to join the Eid al-Adha festival in the Grove; this was my first time participating in a Muslim activity. They provided delicious food for everyone and an inflatable amusement park for kids. I really enjoyed it. I chatted with a lot of people, had fun with a lot of cute kids and ate delicious BBQ chicken legs, wings, hotdogs and traditional Muslim desserts, such as basbousa. However, something happened two days before the event. The MSA students put up their posters on the bulletin board in the Student Union on Friday morning. Several hours later, they found one of their posters torn into pieces. This really hurt Muslim students’ hearts. The president of MSA collected the poster pieces. They made a lot of effort to host this event. They were looking for donations and had been preparing this event for a

long time. “We want people to know that we are the same, we live the same life as you, we are the same human beings,” Adham Hagag, the president of MSA, said. “We don’t want to put religious things in it, we just want everybody to have fun together.” If the whole world had only one race, one skin color, belonged to one ethic group, spoke only one language shared the same culture, believed in the same religion and lived in the same country … then would the world not have war? Would there no longer be any discrimination? Would there be no religious conflicts? If that day really comes, that would be the end of the world, of human beings, of human society. How does human society move forward? Human society cannot develop without the diversity of its culture and ideas. No diversity, no conflict, no development. We are here

because we are different. We are different, so we have different ideas. Those different ideas push human society to move forward. Copernicus doubted the temporal authority, Aristotle’s geocentrism theory, with his heliocentrism theory. He was the first modern European scientist to propose that Earth and the other planets revolve around the sun. The Copernican model was contrary to common sense of the time and contradicted the Bible. Thus, he was put to death by the king. From a modern point of view, although the heliocentrism theory was also not correct, it was a big step for human society, which is why Copernicus is regarded as the father of modern astronomy. What makes the United States such a rapidly developing country? The answer could be any number of things, but its diversity is an important part. The United States is a

multi-ethnic country — Latino, Asian, Muslim, Black etc. There are lots of immigrants with their own cultures, own beliefs and own languages that come from almost everywhere in the world. This makes the United States outstanding. Although there are conflicts among different cultures, they still seek common ground while reserving their differences in order to live together. These conflicts push the society of the United States to move forward in all aspects. Therefore, we should respect difference and diversity. Without diversity, any species would become extinct, would die out. The human species is not excluded. We cannot live without diversity.

Tuesday’s election. “Hurricane Sandy and the impact that it had recently on the Northeast is going to be a factor in this election,” she said. “Some pundits are basically saying the campaign for all intents and purposes ended last week before the storm hit, so wherever the candidates were at that point, that’s where they’re going to be

on Election Day.” However, not every student will be voting for Romney or Obama. Sophomore broadcast journalism major Jenna Hecker said that she does not favor either Obama or Romney and will likely support former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian Party’s candidate. “For Romney, if you look at his voting history, all he does is flip-flop and change his opinions and then says he’s maturing - it’s the most obnoxious thing about him,” Hecker said. “In terms of Barack Obama, my biggest problem with him is he signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which would allow the government to indefinitely hold a citizen of the United States without a trial.” Hecker said that she supports Gov. Johnson because he is consistent in upholding the Libertarian vision, an action she considers “extremely admirable in today’s politics.

Four Downs: Georgia Bulldogs vs. Ole Miss Rebels In this week’s edition of Four Downs, The Daily Mississippian football beat writers Bennett Hipp and Matt Sigler, sports editor David Collier and managing editor Austin Miller answer four questions regarding the week’s matchup.

running back Jeff Scott and a well-rounded receiving core. On the year, Wallace ranks sixth in the SEC in passing yards per game (233 ypg), Scott is fourth in the conference in rushing yards per game (86 ypg) and three Rebel receivers rank in the top 15 in the conference in receptions per game. Freeze and his staff have installed their high-tempo offense this year, which has brought success on the offensive side of the ball for the Rebels, and he said it is tempting to run it more than he already is. “It is very tempting,” he said. “These games are so long. When you’re playing teams like Georgia, who has those receivers and running backs, every time they touch it you hold your breath thinking they could score. Certainly, Georgia has the type of players and coaches that are going to make it unsuccessful at times. It’s a guessing game, and I’m not saying I have all of the answers. “I’m not confident that we’re deep enough to go score 60 against Georgia to win a game. You kind of have to feel that way if you’re going to sell out and do that all of the time. You better be thinking you’re going to score a lot of points to win a game like this against the players they have.” Georgia will bring quite a few weapons to the game on Saturday, including junior quarterback Aaron Murray, freshman running backs Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall and senior receiver Tavarres King. Murray ranks fourth in the SEC in passing yards per game (244 ypg) and third in passing efficiency (148.1) on the year. Kickoff Saturday is set for 2:30 p.m. and will be televised nationally by CBS.

1. Does Ole Miss continue to slow down the pace of the offense, or does Hugh Freeze plan to put things in full gear and keep Georgia off balance?

day. 3. Will Ole Miss get the running game going again this week or will Bo Wallace have to put the offense on his shoulders?

Bennett Hipp (@bennetthipp): It depends on how the game goes, but I could see it being similar to last week against Arkansas. Use the quicker tempo in key spots but also try to slow things down if Georgia has early offensive success. Matt Sigler (@SigNewton_2): I think they will pick up the pace. However, if the Rebels fall behind early, I look for them to slow it down to give the defense a chance to catch their breath. From what I’ve seen, the offense has been much more successful in the high tempo, so I would think that Freeze will want to use it as much as possible. David Collier (@DavidLCollier): Hugh Freeze said it all earlier in the week when he said Ole Miss doesn’t have the depth to run as fast as he would like all game long. So, I think you’ll see a lot of what you did last week with a wider variety of play calling to make the offense less predictable. Austin Miller (@austinkmiller): I don’t think Ole Miss increases the tempo because of the risk of quick three-and-outs against a team as deep as Georgia. If it’s late in the half or game, or Ole Miss falls behind by

Hipp: Dehendret Collins and Cliff Coleman will be relied on heavily with Pendleton out and Senquez Golson not practicing at least through Wednesday. Mike Hilton, Trae Elston and Quintavius Burdette are all younger players who will be counted on even more in the secondary as well. Sigler: I expect Charles Sawyer to have another big game. He has come along well at corner, and I think his best days are ahead of him. I wouldn’t be surprised to also see a big game from Trae Elston. The freshman now has a good bit of experience under his belt, and I feel this could be the ideal time for him to step up. Collier: I’m going to say Dehendret Collins. He’s a guy that has been pretty quiet lately with the emergence of Mike Hilton at the huskie. This is another opportunity to make some plays against a talented quarterback in Aaron Murray of Georgia. Miller: If it’s one guy, I think it’s Mike Hilton because of his versatility to play huskie, as well as maybe some dime, nickel or even corner. He finds the ball on defense, and he has some added incentive playing against Georgia Satur-

Hipp: The Rebels are going to have to find the running game against Georgia. The Bulldogs are too good defensively to go in with an unbalanced offense. Things could get ugly for Ole Miss if they show up in Athens in a one-dimensional offense. Opening up the running game is key to keep the Bulldog defense honest and to keep an aggressive unit from teeing off on Wallace. Sigler: I believe Bo Wallace will put the team on his back. He has command of the offense, and I expect him to carry them most of the way. With the defensive front of Georgia and the play of Jarvis Jones, I’m skeptical of how well the running game will fare. Collier: In my opinion, the running game has to get going again. Bo Wallace played well last week, and I do think the coaches need to put more trust in him. However at the same time, he’s still a young, developing player, so if the offensive line can create some room for Jeff Scott, the Rebels will be more effective when they’re slowing down the pace. Miller: It’s the running game. Ole Miss has to stay balanced. Also, I think the

Hipp: This game a is a free shot — one where Ole Miss has nothing to lose. I expect the Rebels to do what they’ve done all season, which is show up with a plan, play hard for 60 minutes and see what the scoreboard says. Against a team like Georgia on the road, that’s the best way to go about the game. Sigler: Win the turnover battle. Ole Miss will have to capitalize on nearly every possession to stay in this game. Ole Miss cannot afford to have to play from behind against a strong Georgia defense. Collier: Stay within striking distance. This isn’t a game that Ole Miss is supposed to win, so the Rebels just need to play hard and keep it close. If they do that, then who knows? Maybe they find themselves with a chance to win it at the end of the game. Miller: Get the game to the fourth quarter. The longer Ole Miss hangs around, the more pressure there is on Georgia. A trip to Atlanta is on the line for the Bulldogs, while this is a free shot for Hugh Freeze and the Rebels.

Just one win away from gaining bowl eligibility, the Ole Miss Rebels (5-3, 2-2 Southeastern Conference) will travel to Athens, Ga., on Saturday to play “between the hedges” against the No. 6 team in the country, Georgia (7-1, 5-1 SEC). Both the Rebels and Bulldogs are coming off conference victories this past Saturday. The Rebels most recently defeated Arkansas, while Georgia took down then second-ranked Florida. “It’s an exciting one, and our kids and coaching staff will be excited to go play a fine Georgia program there in their home field on CBS,” Ole

Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said during a press conference Monday. “Growing up in the South, that was always a tradition. That 2:30 p.m. game is a special time slot for SEC football. To be playing in that Saturday against Coach (Mark) Richt’s team is quite exciting for us. “It will be another step to kind of see how we’re maturing. It’s a tall task. They’re an excellent football team. I don’t see many weaknesses at all, if any. Coach Richt is a fine coach, and he’s one of the good guys in this business. You kind of find yourself pulling for them when you’re not playing them. We’ve got a great challenge. Hopefully, we can get a few kids healthy and at full strength going over to Athens

on Saturday.” On defense, Georgia will be led by junior linebacker Jarvis Jones, who is coming off a 13-tackle game against Florida. Jones also leads the SEC in sacks with seven and is tied for 12th in the conference with 8.2 tackles per game. “He’s a great player, give credit to him,” Ole Miss junior offensive tackle Pierce Burton said. “He is really fast. It looks like he has added some muscle from last year, and their defensive scheme really allows him to get loose, and I think the coaches are giving us a really good game plan on how to deal with him.” Georgia’s defense enters the game ranked sixth in the conference in scoring defense (22.5 ppg), seventh in total defense (362.2 ypg), seventh in rush defense (152.7 ypg) and ninth in pass defense (209.5 ypg). The Rebels hope to counter that with their own offensive weapons in sophomore quarterback Bo Wallace, junior See GAME , PAGE 7

Keep an eye on 29 Ole Miss is going to have its hands full Saturday afternoon defending No. 29 Jarvis Jones, a junior linebacker. Jones, one of the top linebackers in the country, has been wreaking havoc on opposing offenses all season long. The Bulldogs move Jones around quite a bit and have enough playmakers around him to make teams pay for overcompensating against Jones. With 49 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, nine quarterback hurries and five forced fumbles, the Rebels have to be extra aware of Jones on the field. Rediscover the running game The Rebels struggled against Arkansas running the football but had success splitting backs Jeff Scott and Randall Mackey out wide in the slot. Expect the Rebels to do some more of that, but they’ll also have to figure out a way to get the running game back on track. If the Rebels are unable to run the football, it’ll be a long day for the Ole Miss defense, as it’ll be stuck on the field constantly against Aaron Murray and Georgia’s two really good freshman run-

ning backs, Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall. All hands on deck in the secondary With no Wesley Pendleton and likely no Senquez Golson, the Rebels will be shorthanded at corner and in the secondary in general. Dehendret Collins has moved to corner from huskie and had a good week of practice there. Cliff Coleman will likely also see his snaps increase. The Rebels will rely on younger players like Quintavius Burdette, Mike Hilton and Trae Elston to make plays in a shallow secondary. Ole Miss had some success disguising coverages against Arkansas quarterback Tyler Wilson last week, and the Rebels will have to throw the kitchen sink at the Bulldogs’ Murray in order to give its secondary a chance to hang. Free shot Ole Miss has nothing to lose here. Much like the Alabama game, a loss won’t hurt the Rebels. In this type of game, as a 14-point underdog, the Rebels can just show up, execute the game plan, play hard and see how things end up at the end of 60 minutes. On national television in the 2:30 p.m. CBS slot, it’s another showcase game for recruits to take a look at the Ole Miss program.
