The most recent statistics from the U.S. Department of Veterans’ Affairs estimate that post-traumatic stress disorder afflicts almost 30 percent of Vietnam veterans, 10 percent of Gulf War veterans, and 11 percent of veterans from Afghanistan. Melissa Skolnick, a graduate student in the higher
education program, feels the need to make a difference. Skolnick is in charge of planning events for Disability Awareness Month in April. “I am also very passionate about sexual violence on the college campus, and I also actually deal with PTSD, so for me that is where they intersected,” Skolnick said. Skolnick said many of those dealing with PTSD face discrimination. Mental illness
is still often perceived as a weakness, despite centuries of learning and the “Decade of the Brain.” “There is an extra round of stigma that comes with invisible disabilities, and oftentimes what sort of trauma leads to those disabilities,” says Skolnick. Skolnick got in contact with the UM veterans and military services office, where she teamed up with Aaron Rut-
kowski, president of Student Veterans of America at Ole Miss. Skolnick was inspired by a project in Indiana, where a Veterans Affairs hospital helped veterans struggling with PTSD using art therapy. “And there is a lot of literature around how helpful that can be for expressing— and sometimes used as part of cognitive behavioral therapy—
New parking lots located on Hill Drive, designated for students with commuter parking passes and Rebel Drive, designated for faculty and staff are open as of last week. The new student parking lot adds 71 additional parking spaces, with the intention of lightening the load for other parking locations around campus. “Any parking helps, and these will certainly do that,” Mike Harris, director of parking and transportation, said. “We have available parking on campus; however, it, at times, is not as conveniently located as some would like.” Adding additional parking locations for students and staff alike is a part of the University’s overall Transportation Demand Management plan which includes factors such as parking, buses, bikes and better pedestrian areas. The location and size of each lot is decided based on a variety of elements to ensure maximum convenience for students and economy for the University. “We have several departments which contribute to where parking is placed on campus,” Harris said. “It goes through a planning process and many different factors

Busy weekends on campus lead to false fire alarms LAUREN LAYTON
laurenalislayton@gmail.com
Recent high school graduates now enrolled at UM may find comfort in the fact that a little piece of high school tomfoolery is sure to follow them to their college dorms: the pulling of fire alarms. Most upperclassmen have experienced the headache brought on by faux-flame-induced panic while living in their freshman dorm. Some freshmen have already had their own experiences this semester with the loud-speaker commanding their
attention, telling them to exit the building. Sophomore Kaitlan Burkhalter lived in Stewart Hall her freshman year. “I came home from class and was about to take a nap when I heard that man’s voice come on the alarm in my room,” Burkhalter said. “I was laying in bed and couldn’t believe it happened again. I was just glad it wasn’t at night this time.” Stewart Hall is an all-girl dorm and can be prone to problems triggering the fire alarm. Fire Chief Cary Sallis of Station No. 1 in Oxford said the station more
commonly deals with accidental alarms in girl dorms. Things like hairspray, hot showers and candles being blown out can set an alarm off. Sallis has been with this fire station for 25 years. Sallis said the number of false alarm calls the department gets depends on what’s going on in the community. “[On] big weekends we know we’re going to have calls…home ballgame weekends, a late game, a big game, or if Ole Miss wins,” Sallis said. “Because people are out there partying. we’ve gotten

A simple way to reduce global terrorism COLUMN
SCOTT SCHRODER
saschrod@go.olemiss.edu
In the wake of the horrific, coordinated attacks that took place in Paris on Friday, the discussion of how to prevent instances of terrorism is once again front and center in the United States. In the American terrorism conversation, one can only reach two logical conclusions: either we do not mean what we say, or we cannot bring ourselves to say what we mean. In the first case, we cannot possibly be serious about stopping terrorism while simultaneously being the largest sponsor of terrorism in world history, by any metric, and continue down that path as we speak. Surely, the government cannot look itself in the mirror, remember Nicaragua, El Salvador, Cuba and so many others and conclude that we are not terrorists as well. In the second example, that THE DAILY

maybe we can’t bring ourselves to say what we mean, the case could be made that we know good and well what we have done, and justify it with the implicit understanding that our terrorism is good terrorism, while Islamic terrorism is the bad sort of terrorism. Their wars are a problem while ours are only ever a solution. They are the cause, and we the effect. This is more likely the scenario, and it fits perfectly into the narrative of American exceptionalism. Their terrorism is inexcusable barbarism, while ours is the reluctant result of well-meaning people making tough decisions. Compare the (just) reactions to the 9/11 attacks with the reactions of essentially every American politician towards a specific example, Cuba. In the wake of 9/11, the Bush Doctrine stated that a country who harbors terrorists is the same as the terrorists themselves. This policy taken towards Afghanistan justified an expan-

used to it, and we just know it’s coming.” The first thing the crew does upon arrival is to check the alarm panel, which is located in a secluded area in each dorm, and find the floor or stairwell and room number that set off the alarm. They are aided in evacuating the building by the community assistants, who have been trained on what to do when the fire alarms go off. Community assistant Sydney Shamblin lives and works in Martin Hall, which is one of the more popular buildings where fire alarms are pulled as pranks. She remembers the extensive training that the CAs went through in order to be prepared in case of an emergency. “[The Oxford Fire Department] taught us how to use the fire extinguishers,” Shamblin said. Ethan Peterson, coordinator of fire protection services at Ole Miss, is in charge of educating the CAs. He teaches the safety class that is a part of every CA’s training. “It consists of a PowerPoint presentation explaining what to do in an emergency, what kind of fire code violations to look for and how to use a fire extinguisher,” Peterson said. During the fall semester Peterson also gives a brief speech to students living in the dorms about how to handle themselves in case of a fire, along with where to exit the building and where to go once outside. He often works with the fire department, especially to update them on any changes to buildings on campus. The Oxford Fire Department has been working hand-in-hand with the University since 1985. Before then, campus had its own station. Adjustments where made when the City of Oxford took over providing fire safety for Ole Miss. “When we first started running it, 60 percent of our calls were to campus. Now only 35 to 40 percent are on campus,” Sallis said. “With education and working with people, it’s gotten a lot better.”
and exposure and bringing up those memories and learning how to reframe them,” Skolnick said. They had different participants create original paintings and drawings to be placed on a wall and presented as one piece of art. “So that’s the goal of these healing events, is to have multiple of these leading up to April, so when we have our big week around PTSD, traumatic brain injuries, major depressive disorder, anxiety, that we can have this big reception at the end and we will reveal this art wall,” says Skolnick. There will be a day devoted to explaining and raising awareness around the differences between a service dog, a comfort animal, and a therapy dog, called “My Dog is not for Petting.” Puppies will be brought in for petting to teach people how to ask permission before petting a service dog

are looked at, from underground utilities to proximity to thoroughfares.” However, despite recent efforts to accommodate for lack of parking on campus, some students still feel the University has failed to accommodate for the recent influx of students and their vehicles. Sophomore Courtney Brown lives off campus this year and uses a commuter pass to be able to park on campus. “There are so many people. It’s hard to say (the new lots will
help),” Brown said. “It’s is going to get filled up really quickly anyways, so it’s probably not going to help me.” Harris is well aware of this popular mindset, but ultimately feels student complaints will always be an issue when it comes to parking and transportation on campus. “I have been in parking for many years, and complaints are part of the business,” Harris said. “There will always be complaints unless we could park everyone at the building they want to be at. Our goal is to minimize the complaints as much as possible by offering as many parking and transportation options as possible.”
and respecting when a handler says “no.” Dalny Ruel, a graduate student and a friend of Skolnick, said this program was a great way to address these issues. Ruel found out about the event from social media and decided to come and support the cause. “I saw it on Facebook, and I know that (Skolnick) is spearheading the event, when I saw that it was an event to recognize the different either post-traumatic stress disorder, or like brain injuries, like invisible diseases, I thought that this would be a really great way to support,” Ruel said. Taylor Stephens, psychology major, dreams of becoming a counselor to victims of PTSD . “I have experienced traumatic events myself, so I like to come to events like this and connect with people,” Stephens said. “I feel when you meet someone who has gone through something that you have gone through, you feel it, you connect, it’s a really special thing. I think it’s important for growth.”

Mud Daubers: An art showcase with Christmas cheer HAILEA LAMER
hrlamer@go.olemiss.edu
With the holidays approaching fast, nobody wants to be picking out gifts for family and friends at the last minute. Thanks to the Mud Daubers’ holiday pottery sale, getting ahead on holiday shopping is now much easier. The Mud Daubers is made up of advanced ceramics students and led by university art professor Matt Long. The club meets at least once a week to plan wood firings and upcoming events such as the holiday art sale and auction, the holiday pottery sale and Double Decker Weekend. The pieces the club produces are used for the sales they put on and for the community, as well as for donations to the Empty Bowls charity. The holiday pottery sale has been a staple for the club ever since they were founded in the early 80s. 13 students have worked hard to create the few hundred pieces available for purchase. Shoppers can find a variety of handcrafted goods, from functional pieces like mugs, bowls and plates to more decorative sculptural work. However, mugs and bowls tend to be the most popular items. “We usually sell a lot of mugs and bowls because people like to give them as gifts,” said senior ceramics major Taylor Mauer, who is also the secretary of the club. A portion of the money from the sale goes to the artist, with the other portion benefiting the ceramics department. “The money that goes to the department helps broaden our education by getting visiting artists to come to the studio, and it helps us buy new equipment for the department,” said Mauer. President Preston Tolbert, a MFA candidate in his second year of ceramics, is participating in the holiday sale for the second time. This year he has created 30 pots for sale, but he enjoys crafting cups and mugs the most. “Cups and mugs are intimate objects,” said Tolbert. “How many artworks are held in
the hand and used every day? There is a connection between the maker and the user that mass-produced ceramics cannot duplicate. My favorite object is the one that makes that connection.” Not only do the artists enjoy creating their artwork – they also like interacting with customers who are seeing their work for the first time. “I enjoy talking to the end users of my artwork. I really like seeing how people handle the pottery,” said Tolbert. For some, this will be their first year participating in the sale. Emma Wilson, a fifthyear art major, joined the Mud Daubers last semester and is excited to have the opportunity for members of the community to see her artwork. She estimates that she’ll have 30 to 40 pieces for sale including teacups, bowls, cups and small jars. “Anybody who has an interest in art or needs a gift, whether it’s for a friend or for themselves (should come),” said Wilson. The sale begins today, Nov. 18 and lasts through Friday, Nov. 20 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in front of the Student Union. Those wishing to purchase pieces can pay by either cash or credit card. Pieces will be priced from $20 and up.

SEC Football Power Poll
THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN SPORTS EDITOR COLLIN BRISTER RANKS THE 14 SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE TEAMS IN WEEK 12. THE OLE MISS REBELS FACE LSU AT HOME THIS SATURDAY AT 2:30 AND THEN MISSISSIPPI STATE ON THE ROAD TO END THE SEASON. We have reached week 12 in the college football season, and we have a good idea with what teams are and what they aren’t. Sort of. Kind of. Not really. The SEC is aggressively average this year, no matter what your uncle tells you about how “Clemson can’t play in no SEC.” So, here’s this week’s power poll. It’s fluid. It’s probably wrong. Yet, you’re still reading.
2. ALABAMA
FLORIDA
Alabama just sacked Dak Prescott again. Yes, while you were reading this, A’shawn Robinson broke into Dak Prescott’s apartment and sacked him. Alabama all but locked up the SEC West in last Saturday’s bludgeoning of Mississippi State. Did you guys see where that idiot picked Mississippi State to win in last Friday’s paper? Me either. Alabama will get back in action this week taking on Charleston Southern.
Florida continues its winning ways, knocking off South Carolina 24-14. The Gators have put themselves in position to compete for a playoff spot, with Florida State and Alabama remaining on the schedule. The Gators get back into action this week, taking on Florida Atlantic University before hosting the Seminoles in the last game of the season.
A week after a dramatic win over Ole Miss, Arkansas would need no theatrics as they promptly whipped LSU up and down the field. Arkansas’ running back Alex Collins had a field day on the LSU defense, and Brandon Allen continued his hot streak. The Razorbacks will host Mississippi State this weekend as they look to improve their bowl standing.
Ole Miss had a much-needed bye week this past week after a grueling ten week stretch. The Rebels were able to get healthy for their two biggest games of the season. The Rebels will host rival LSU this weekend.
Two weeks ago, LSU was undefeated and Leonard Fournette had the Heisman trophy all but won. Two weeks later, the Tigers are out of SEC West contention and have lost everything they were playing for. The Tigers were thoroughly pounded by Arkansas Saturday and will not get any favors as they travel to Oxford a week later.

TENNESSEE
Tennessee beat North Texas 24-0 last weekend in a game that set offenses back by ages and could possibly constitute as the most boring event in the history of all time. The Volunteers are in their special time of the year where they beat up on really bad teams and go 8-4 and we have to hear the continuous drivel that the “VOLS ARE BACK” for a whole off-season. The Vols aren’t back. They probably never will be.
8.
GEORGIA
Georgia beat Auburn on Saturday 20-13. Georgia is going to be the most boring 9-3 team that ever existed. This fact puts Georgia’s athletic director in a tough spot, as the clamoring for Mark Richt to be replaced is at an all-time high. Georgia will take on Georgia Southern this weekend before they head to Atlanta to take on their rival, Georgia Tech.
MISSISSIPPI STATE
Mississippi State played Alabama last weekend. I use the word played lightly. They, allegedly, showed up. Alabama trounced Mississippi State, putting a stop to the Dogs’ SEC West title hopes. Mississippi State will now get the unpleasant task of taking on the Razorbacks in Fayetteville.

The Commodores defeated Kentucky on Saturday, and will look to keep their bowl eligibility hopes alive this week against Texas A&M.
Texas A&M continued their riveting game of quarterback musical chairs this past weekend in their win over Western Carolina. The Aggies looked lifeless for the fourth week in a row. Texas A&M will now head to Nashville to take on a Commodore team that is still alive for post-season play.

Rebels prepare for ranked Clemson Tigers Friday CHRISTOPH LUDWIG
csludwig@go.olemiss.edu
The 24th-ranked Ole Miss soccer team advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament last Friday with a 1-0 victory over Murray State. They will attempt to advance to the Sweet 16 for the first time in program history this Friday, when they travel to Clemson to take on the 7th-ranked Tigers. The time of the match has not yet been announced. The Rebel offense broke a twogame scoring drought with a goal in the second minute against Murray State, but overall their inefficiency in front of goal continued. They took 21 shots in the game, but many of them were from outside the box and didn’t trouble the goalkeeper. “It was a game where you would have liked to have a few more goals, but in soccer you really only need one,” said Matthew Mott, Ole Miss head coach, at his weekly press conference. The defense picked up the slack, holding the Racers to just four shots, and redshirt freshman goalkeeper Marnie Merritt only had to make one save.

victory over So-Con conference champion Furman in the first round. Three different Tigers got on the board, with sophomore forwards Shannon Horgan and
Miranda Weslake and junior midfielder Abby Jones getting on the board. The Tiger defense held Furman to just two shots and junior goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan
did not have to make a save. The Tiger defense was one of the best in the ACC, led by Sheridan, an All-ACC first-teamer who was second in the conference with seven shutouts. Four more Tigers earned AllACC honors: junior midfielder Catrina Atanda was named second-team All-ACC, Jones and junior defender Claire Wagner were named to the All-ACC third team, and freshman defender Sam Staab was named to the All-Freshman team. Mott and his team know that they have their work cut out for them. “They are very dangerous up front,” Mott said. “They have a couple of special forwards and their attacking midfielder is very dangerous. They are very organized in the back with an excellent goalkeeper who kicks the ball very well. Clemson is solid in every position.” The Rebels are happy with the company they keep, but they want to keep their season alive. “They will be prepared and we will be too,” Mott said. “I think Friday will be a very exciting game. Our team is in a good spot and we’re looking forward to this next match.”
