Big Sean, Matt and Kim highlight Juice Jam 2015 lineup at Skytop Field

ix artists graced the two Juice Jam stages on Sunday afternoon.

Despite the rain in the early sets, crowds fought the chilly weather to see SNBRN, BØRNS, Matt and Kim, iLoveMakonnen, Oliver Heldens and the headliner Big Sean who closed out the concert.

Big Sean “When I say good, you say music,” Big Sean said at the end of his collaborative hit “Clique,” initiating a call-and-response moment between himself and swarms of students at Juice Jam 2015.

Headliner Big Sean played several of his biggest songs, and his set started to heat up once he performed “Dance (A$$),” the first song out of his set that livened the audience up — possibly because several words of the song are very easy to remember. He then went into several of his older Detroit mixtape songs, which may have lost the audience a bit. However,

when he returned to his bigger songs, he won them back. By this point, Juice Jam-goers were cold, tired and just wanted to flail while singing the lyrics to the Big Sean songs they knew.

Oliver Heldens Fresh off his appearance at Mad Decent Block Party in Eugene, Oregon on Saturday, the Dutchman reigning in from Rotterdam, Netherlands was number five in the Juice Jam lineup. Going on in front of a tired crowd who were all waiting for the final act, Big Sean, to come on afterwards, Heldens was dealt a hard hand in trying to maintain the crowd’s attention. There’s no doubt Heldens is talented, at only 20, he has the respect of fellow Juice Jam performer SNBRN — who couldn’t believe Heldens knew who he was. But in a live concert setting, crowds feed off of on-stage energy and even though they liked him, they loved the roaming photographers more. The energy didn’t start until the cameras panned the crowd. Not to mention, the lines to the food trucks away from the stage grew significantly during his set. see juice

Former SA president fails to finish in top 15 in Miss America

By Alexa Torrens asst. news editor

Former Student Association President Allie Curtis did not qualify as one of the top 15 contestants in the Miss America pageant Sunday.

Curtis was crowned Miss Rhode Island on

May 30. She was one of 14 contestants in the state competition and entered the program as Miss West Warwick. The win enabled her to enter the Miss America pageant, which took place on Sunday. Miss Georgia was crowned Miss America 2016.

As president of the 57th session of SA,

Curtis established Syracuse University’s first Elect Her training program. The program encourages young women to become student leaders as a stepping stone for their careers.

The initiative aligns with Curtis’ platform for the Miss Rhode Island and Miss America competitions: “Leading Ladies: Equipping Young

Women With The Skills to Lead.”

Curtis is currently a Master of Public Affairs candidate at Brown University. She plans to begin working for her next master’s degree in administration of justice and homeland security with a focus in cybersecurity and see curtis page 6

Sophomore turns NBA fandom into podcast

By Molly Berger contributing writer

Not many people from Pittsburgh are Phoenix Suns fans. But when sophomores Zach Parnes and Nick Hennion met at an NBA preseason game at the Carrier Dome, they realized they had exactly that in common.

“It’s pretty uncharacteristic for two kids from a rustbelt town to have the southwestern roots of sports,” Parnes said.

Parnes, a broadcast and digital journalism major, created his podcast, Suns Talk Radio, in 2011 after he disappointingly got too old to continue his former passion, reporting for Sports Illustrated Kids.

Hennion, an information management technology major, later joined the team as co-director, and helped the podcast’s twitter reach 1800 followers.

Now, Parnes is going on his fourth year of Suns Talk Radio. He has a weekly show every Monday during the season at 11 p.m., with hopes of expanding his production team and running the

show twice a week in the future.

With Hennion’s help, Suns Talk Radio now has over 1800 followers on Twitter and listeners from all over the U.S., as well as a few international listeners.

Suns Talk Radio often features well-known guests on the podcasts and a caller feed for people to call in and voice their opinions.

Hennion helped to bring ESPN business reporter Darren Rovell onto the podcast.

Other guests featured included sportscaster Sean McDonough, and television producer and SU professor Dennis Deninger.

Parnes hopes to one day reach an official partnership with the team for his podcast and hopes to bring players on to talk after games.

Parnes’ dream job is to be a playby-play announcer for the NBA. “It’s been amazing just to see where the whole process has come,” Parnes said.

It’s unbelievable to know that I had gotten there on my own accord.” moberger@syr.edu

INSIGHTS FROM SCIENCE AND RELIGION

ASSESSING

Pope Francis’ Call For An INTEGRAL ECOLOGY Pope Francis’ highly anticipated encyclical Laudato Si’ has exceeded the expectations of almost everyone. Grounded in a deep engagement with a wealth of scientific findings and carrying profound political/economic implications, Francis’ call for action to meet the urgent ecological challenges facing our planet may well provoke one of the most important encounters between science and religion since the appearance of Darwin’s Origin of Species.

Laudato Si’ invites dialogue not only about the scientific, technical, and economic dimensions of climate change but also about its moral, ethical, and social dimensions. This set of assessments by leading experts in their fields will engage all of these facets of the encyclical’s positions and is intended to initiate informed and concerted action upon them.

Steinberg discusses decision to step down

By Justin Mattingly news editor

The release of more than 100 Hillary Clinton emails that James Steinberg was either included on or mentioned in played no role in his stepping down as dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, he said.

In an interview with The Daily Orange, Steinberg said that while the announcement that he would

step down was one day after the State Department released more than 4,300 emails from Hillary Clinton — his former STEINBERG boss — the emails did not play a role in the decision.

“The reason that the announcement came when it did is because I wanted to wait until the first week

of school to tell the faculty,” Steinberg said. “The first thing you learn

The approximate amount of money Maxwell has raised since Steinberg became dean in 2011

about social sciences is that correlation is not cause and somebody

should have asked me.”

He added that he informed Chancellor Kent Syverud and Interim Vice Chancellor and Provost Liz Liddy of his decision last month.

Steinberg has been the dean of Maxwell since 2011 and came to Syracuse University after serving as deputy secretary of state under Hillary Clinton. He announced on Sept. 1 that he will be stepping down see steinberg page 6

Obama announces plan to rate college value

By Justin Mattingly news editor

President Barack Obama has announced a new college scorecard to help rate colleges on their value to students.

The scorecard, which will include

both public and private higher education institutions, uses Internal Revenue Service data about how much money graduates earn, what percentage of a school’s students can pay back their loans and their debt upon graduation to determine the value of the school.

The news was announced in Obama’s weekly address to the country, released on Saturday. In the video, Obama said his administration is working with partners in the academic, private and non-profit sectors to help families use the new data.

“The status quo serves some col-

leges and the companies that rank them just fine. But it doesn’t serve our students well — and that doesn’t serve any of us well,” Obama said in the address. “There are colleges dedicated to helping students of all backgrounds learn without saddling

Blackboard’s popularity among colleges and universities has been declining in recent years, but Syracuse University still uses the platform.

High profile clients, such as Duke University and the University of Texas at Austin, have opted for newer programs, like Canvas and Sakai.

There have been complaints that Blackboard’s interface can be “clunky and inconvenient,” according to an Aug. 22 Washington Post article.

Elephant whisperer

YVONNE LIM, a senior wildlife sciences major at SUNY-ESF, interacts with an elephant at Elephant Nature Park in Thailand. She spent two weeks of summer vacation in Thailand. Lim, who hopes to be a veterinarian, went to Thailand through Loop Abroad’s College Veterinary Service program.

SUNY-ESF senior spends summer participating in veterinary program in Thailand

By Taylor Watson contributing writer

W

hile most New Yorkers avoid pigeons, Yvonne Lim spent her childhood in Brooklyn feeding pigeons with broken wings. She would leave food out for stray cats.

No animal in need was to be turned away.

But Lim was not allowed to have any pets.

Instead of letting her love for animals diminish, she got creative.

Lim, a senior wildlife sciences major at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry, remains steadfast in her desire to help animals. This summer, she took her passion to an international level by participating in the College Veterinary Service Loop Abroad program in

Thailand to work with dogs and elephants.

“One of the biggest benefits of the program is that students get to be with a veterinarian for two weeks in a small group, so they get to ask questions,” said Jane Stine, managing director at Loop Abroad.

The first week of the program was spent at the Animal Rescue Kingdom dog shelter in Chiang Mai, which is home to more than 100 rescue dogs. Lim was able to gain hands-on experience as she practiced techniques like drawing blood, which most students do not learn until their second year in veterinary school.

The second week was spent in northern Thailand at the Elephant Nature Park, home to about 60 elephants. Lim stayed in a suite at the sanctuary with others from her Loop Abroad group.

Lim said they had to take bucket showers and there was no hot water and added that

because of the humidity in Thailand, “cold showers were a good wake-up call.”

Assignments at the park included preparing food for the elephants, bathing them and cleaning up their feces.

“They enjoyed it,” Lim said of the elephant baths, “but then they would roll in mud right after.”

For one assignment, Lim had to monitor the diet of a 70-year-old elephant named Saza, who Lim said “acted like a cranky old lady.”

“When she got thirsty, she would quickly walk across the field to the hose and I had to chase her,” Lim said. “It was difficult trying to dodge other elephant herds and water buffalo in order to keep track of her.”

Lek Chailert, founder of the Elephant Nature Park, told Lim and the rest of the group about the abuse and mistreatment elephants face.

Upon leaving the Elephant Nature Park, Lim recalled seeing elephant trekking, a harmful yet popular activity where tourists pay to ride on an elephant’s back. She noticed one elephant had blood dripping down its face and said she believes that you can tell how an elephant feels by looking at its eyes.

“A lot of people either know and choose to ignore it or don’t know,” Lim said of the abuse.

“You can’t blame them for not knowing.”

Lim’s message, simply put, is to be kind.

“Animals have as much a right to life as we do; we don’t want them to suffer,” she said.

Lim said she hopes to attend veterinary school and eventually work with small or exotic animals after graduating from SUNY-ESF in 2016.

“I will work with animals; I’ll find some way to make a living out of it,” Lim said. tnwatson@syr.edu

Steinberg said Clinton “made clear that she was in favor of releasing them, so I think it was important that she show that she really thinks these were not problematic from a national security point of view.”

“I wasn’t personally concerned about it,” he said. “I think it’s been important that this issue get aired and I think she’s made a pretty clear statement about it.”

Because he didn’t use email that much, Steinberg said he didn’t give any thought to Clinton using a private email server. He added that their offices were right next to each other, so there wasn’t any need to communicate through email.

In total, Steinberg will have served five years as dean of Maxwell.

scorecard them with debt. We should hold everybody to that standard. Our economic future depends on it.”

Obama said the administration will be continuing to work on the scorecard “in the coming weeks and months” using input from students, parents, counselors and colleges.

The old scorecard relied on someone else deciding which factors should be valued and published, while the new one allows the user to see a broader range of data, according to a fact sheet issued by the White House. The changes to the scorecard can “empower Americans,” according to the fact sheet.

With the release of the new scorecard came the release of data for more than 7,000 institutions, including Syracuse University.

SU’s data showed it is above the national average in average annual cost ($28,912), graduation rate (81 percent) and salary after attending ($56,600). The typical total debt from federal loans is $27,000, according to the data. Fifty-six percent of SU students are white, according to the data, and 27 percent of students have a family income less than

Now, Blackboard only has around 44 percent of the market.

The average SAT score for SU students is between 1560 and 1900, while the average ACT score is between 23 and 28.

Following the release of the new scorecard, some in higher education have voiced their displeasure with the new system.

“Leaders in our government, from the president on down, have benefited from a strong liberal education, both at public and private institutions,” said Association of American Colleges and Universities President Carol Geary Schneider in a statement. “It is unfortunate, therefore, that the president charged the Department of Education to create a Scorecard that, however well-intended, reinforces the message to students that college is primarily about getting in, getting out, and getting a job.”

Molly Corbett Broad, president of the American Council on Education, said in a statement that while having the data is good, “developing a system of this size and scope is a complicated and nuanced endeavor and the department has done so without any external review.”

In August 2013, Obama spoke at Henninger High School in Syracuse and discussed a plan

and their ability to meet the needs of campus.

Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin for four years.

While Steinberg is the dean of Maxwell, he is also currently a University Professor of Social Science, International Affairs and Law — a position he’ll move into full-time at the end of his deanship.

“It’s a different way of contributing to Maxwell. I want to teach more, I want to write more,” Steinberg said. “It’s really just a transition of roles.”

Since Steinberg came to the university in 2011, Maxwell has raised more than $27 million — something Steinberg said he’ll continue to do after his deanship is over.

Steinberg said the thing he’s most proud of during his tenure as dean has been the restoration of the school’s “focus on the issues of citizenship and public affairs.”

He also noted accomplishments such as the creation of the Tanner Lecture Series, the launching of the civic engagement major and

the creation of the school’s 10th decade fund, which raised about a million dollars to help fund new projects.

“Those kind of things really focus on our civic engagement and connecting scholarship and teaching to this big mission, which I think really knits Maxwell together and really knits our traditions together,” Steinberg said.

While continuing his work in fundraising and teaching, Steinberg said he believes he can play an active role in bringing together all the different parts of SU to help build the internationalization part of the Academic Strategic Plan — which was completed in July.

He added that Liddy, the interim vice chancellor and provost, is excited about him working with other University Professors and other colleagues on more collaborative work.

Said Steinberg: “I’ve got a lot of things that I’m excited about, including continuing to teach … there’s a full plate there.” jmatting@syr.edu | @jmattingly306

Following Obama’s speech, former Chancellor Nancy Cantor — who has since left SU — said the university would look “very good” in Obama’s proposed system.

“We care deeply about socioeconomic diversity and we have a very substantial finan-

options on the market, and until SU finds a need to change it, it will stay.

“Once the overall pros outweigh the cons, we will consider the move to a new system. So far, that has not occurred,” Gluck said.

If SU decided to switch services, Gluck said, the university would have to invest time into extensive research and development, even to the point of researching the possible impacts on the campus’s technology infrastructure.

“The decision process would include faculty, students and staff,” Gluck said. “The vice chancellor/provost and the chief information officer would be the decision makers.”

Gluck added that Blackboard is “the Swiss Army knife of learning management systems,” and it is very helpful for students.

Jessica Gorman, a sophomore transfer stu-

dent in the College of Arts and Sciences, said she finds the system incredibly useful.

“It’s an easy way to keep up with and submit assignments,” Gorman said. “I check it constantly and I absolutely love it.”

Even while she was a student at Sacred Heart University, Gorman used Blackboard, and is eager to continue using it at SU, she added.

Brendan Lee, a freshman in the Martin J. Whitman School of Management, agreed that it is a useful tool.

“I think it’s very user-friendly; after a few days on it, I can navigate it easily,” Lee said.

However, Lee added that if professors used it better, it might be more efficient for students.

He argued that professor presence on the program is one of Blackboard’s largest downfalls.

Scorecard should not govern college choice While President Barack Obama’s new college scorecard is a progressive development in providing a comprehensive database of information, college applicants must be aware that there are additional factors that determine the true value of a school.

The scorecard, which was announced in Obama’s weekly address to the country on Saturday, uses Internal Revenue Service data about how much money graduates earn, what percentage of a school’s students can pay back their loans and their debt upon graduation to rate public and private institutions of higher education on their value to students.

The decision to base the scorecard on the value of a school, rather than the popularized factor of affordability, is relevant to all students pursuing a higher education.

iBreakdown Technology columnist Paul Sarconi explains what consumers should anticipate with the new line of Apple technology.

See dailyorange.com

But while the Obama administration’s scorecard is a tool that all students will be able to reference, these prospective students must acknowledge that this data is just one part of a multifaceted decision.

Syracuse University’s data, which was released along with the new scorecard, showed that it is above the national average in average annual cost ($28,912), graduation rate (81 percent) and salary after attending ($56,600). The typical total debt from federal loans is $27,000, according to the data.

But every student is different when it comes to their financial standing going into and graduating from SU, which creates some deception in the scorecard system.

Finances can be influenced by different academic choices of study, which have nothing to do with the value of

scribble

an academic program or the nature of a university’s campus culture. Some careers simply have higher salaries.

Because this data cannot measure how happy a student is with their college choice, the scorecard must be regarded as an accessible, supplemental source of information in the application process to provide prospective applicants with a realistic expectation of the economic logistics of their degree.

The new scorecard’s centralization of numerical data rather than subjective information is a useful resource that students and their families should take advantage of to place their university options into perspective. However, prospective applicants must realize that this data is only one factor to take into consideration when determining the true value of a higher education.

equality should both be priorities.

A quick Google search of Davis will provide all the information needed for fans and critics alike. Bryan Fischer, a Christian columnist and radio personality, compared her to Rosa Parks.

Political commentator Bill Maher said she is in fact a modern day Rosa Parks the Rosa Parks of homophobia.

In short, Kim Davis has become a caricature of an entire religion, and many Republicans, including Mike Huckabee, who stood with her during her speech on the day she was released from jail, are enjoying every moment.

Kim Davis was expected to do her job as a county clerk. But, as a Christian, it raises the question of whether or not she had the right to not compromise her faith. Some say she should have picked another job instead, while others argue she had the right to say no.

It may be difficult for some to mend the distorted relationship with religion and social politics. The First Amendment of the Constitution functions to keep church and state as separate entities. Stories like Kim Davis’ challenge this reality. As a country, will it ever be possible to respect people’s religious freedom as well as the human need and desire to be treated wholly, with the same rights as anyone else?

In this difficult situation, the right answer is subjective to people who will be offended if bias casts them in an unfavorable light. Perhaps this is why we are taught to not discuss such things in conversation. We need to be able to articulate both sides, listen and seek to understand the perspectives of one another.

Having a holistic understanding of these viewpoints will provide a space

for Americans to feel protected by the Constitution, in addition to respecting religious beliefs and their significance in society. It isn’t a matter of picking sides as much as it is a matter of recognizing both and finding a balance.

I do not consider Kim Davis to be Rosa Parks. I understand the intent, but it leaves the same bitter taste in my mouth as cultural appropriation and whitewashing history. I admire someone who takes a stand for their faith, and I also admire a country that treats everyone with the same manner of respect. Maybe it’s a paradox to have both, but there’s no harm in trying to achieve this reality.

1. BIG SEAN was the sixth and final artist at Juice Jam on Sunday. He closed out the show to a full crowd, bouncing around the stage while flipping between life advice and song lyrics.

Big Sean, whose real name is Sean Anderson, played hit songs like “I Don’t F*ck With You” and “One Man Can Change the World.”

2. MATT AND KIM brought the energy as the third act of the day. Complete with balloons, confetti and Kim Schifino’s booty-shaking, the Brooklyn-based couple played their own hit songs like “Daylight” and “Let’s Go.” They also covered “Ignition Remix” by R Kelly and Kim crowdsurfed to their song “Get It.”

3. SNBRN was three hours away in Ottawa, Canada, performing at Capital Block Party the night before his Juice Jam appearance. Despite his lack of sleep, the artist hit the stage at noon to a small crowd. The DJ played remixes of old hits like “Sexual Healing” by Marvin Gaye and his own songs like “Raindrops.” frankie prijatel staff photographer

4. ILOVEMAKONNEN performed on the indie stage on Sunday. At the beginning of his song “I Don’t Sell Molly No More,” the sound cut out and the artist experienced technical difficulties. iLoveMakonnen, whose real name is Makonnen Sheran, handled the situation gracefully, hopped down and took fan photos offstage. moriah ratner asst. photo editor

Scare-A-Con film convention highlights local horror movie culture

V

ERONA, N.Y. - Hundreds gathered this weekend at Turning Stone Resort Casino to celebrate the joys of horror.

Scare-A-Con — a three-day convention dedicated to everything scary from films to costumes — took place about 30 miles from the Syracuse University campus. The convention had a few different aspects to it. There was a large show floor with different vendors and services. On the show floor, one could get a tattoo or they could buy some “Killer Ground” coffee beans. The opportunities were endless, from getting your face painted to meeting celebrities in the horror world, such as Barry Bostwick from “Rocky Horror Picture Show”.

In terms of film, Scare-A-Con is an excellent opportunity for budding horror filmmakers.

Directors and writers can bring their films to be showcased and get attention before they receive a cinematic release. This builds buzz for the films and gets the word out, helping these films eventually reach distribution. Scare-ACon provides a pedestal for these films.

ERIK BENJAMIN

DON’T CALL ME SHIRLEY I got the opportunity to see two films in my time at Scare-A-Con. The first was called “The Man in the Shadows,” directed by Joshua Fraiman and written by Adam Tomlinson, who conducted a Q&A after the screening.

“The Man in the Shadows” was more of a psychological thriller than a straight up horror movie, but the result was nonetheless fascinating. The film features a woman named Kate who sees a man named “The Hat Man” who haunts her dreams. The question is, does The Hat Man really exist or is Kate just seeing these illusions? As the film goes on, we see her struggle with this question. Alison Louder plays Kate extremely convincingly and her performance is a true highlight of the film. You can see her emotional struggle on her face as the film goes on and you can truly see her mental torture.

Nick Baillie is also extremely convincing when portraying her new husband Scott, as he tries to be supportive but also looks out for himself.

Writer Adam Tomlinson makes an appearance in the film as a character named William, who is the only one that can also see “The Hat Man.” His performance was somewhat over-the-top, but I can’t help but respect his dedication to his project. He claims he had a real experience seeing this “Hat Man” and that is what inspired him to write a feature film. He was extremely receptive to any questions the crowd had and when the film ended, even came out dressed as “The Hat Man.” The next film I got to watch was an anthology piece called “Death: A Love Story.” This film featured three mini films, entitled “Flipped,” “The Talent” and “Hooker.” These three films, written and directed by Edward James Anderson, varied in quality. “Flipped” was somewhat forgettable, while “Hooker” was downright disturbing. “The Talent” was fantastic. It featured a Hollywood director, his stalker

and the power struggle that the two face. It was suspenseful, thrilling and more than anything, beautifully shot. In fact, all three of these films looked gorgeous and that’s what made “Death: A Love Story” stand out. The film’s visual appeal made it look professional and I could legitimately see myself in theaters watching this film.

Overall, Scare-A-Con was a great experience. Not only was the film festival a great opportunity to see some smaller films, but viewing the culture of this event was truly something special. Everyone who was there wanted to be there and was passionate about horror. Ultimately the films and activities were fun, but what really matters was everyone’s passion. While Syracuse students looked forward to gathering to the music of Big Sean, these fans gather to be scared together.

Erik Benjamin is a sophomore television, radio and film major. You can email him at ebenjami@syr.edu or follow him @embenjamin14 on Twitter.

Judging by the constant smiles on their faces, they may or may not have had a better time than everyone else.

iLoveMakonnen It’s safe to assume that no artists want their music to cut out between verses, but that’s exactly what happened to iLoveMakonnen who was number four in the lineup. As he started singing the lines to “I Don’t Sell Molly No More,” the music cut off. The crowd started to boo as a girl yelled, “What’s going on?” to the hip-hop artist.

But after a split-second of looking around the stage for an answer, iLoveMakonnen, whose real name is Makonnen Sheran, hopped off the front and into the arms of screaming girls and boys. After a few audio glitches, he switched from the main stage to the smaller stage next to it, which may have helped his interactions with the audience by creating a more intimate environment with those paying attention to him. On the bigger stage, many had drifted away, clearly waiting for “Tuesday” to come on. That being said, iLoveMakonnen powered through and tried to show the audience what else he’s made of by putting very little focus on “Tuesday.”

I hope y’all are happy to be in school. That’s something. Appreciate it. iLoveMakonnen

How many here are freshmen? I need to tell you something right now. You have four years. Don’t f*cking settle down, spread that sh*t.

Kim Schifino matt & kim band member

BØRNS BØRNS was the first performer to hit the indie stage. His indie-pop sound electrified the crowd as students rocked back and forth to the beat.

Clad in a black parka with a fur-hood pulled over an official Juice Jam hat, the Michigan-born artist was stationary during most of his set, strumming his guitar and grabbing the mic with both hands. The bad weather reached its peak during his performance with a light misty rain falling over the dancing crowd. In the beginning of his set, he experienced some technical difficulties with his mic and the speakers on the right side of the stage were full of static that made members of the crowd cringe in discomfort. The singer ran through a set that included fan-favorites such as “Electric Love” and “10,000 Emerald Pools,” in addition to songs coming off his upcoming album “Dopamine.”

SNBRN Matt and Kim Matt and Kim thawed the brisk air at Skytop Field with their enigmatic stage presence, warm sound and Kim’s unbelievable ability to dance and drum. If students didn’t love Matt and Kim before, they sure do now, especially after Kim climbed into the audience and trusted them enough to hold her up as she froze the entire audience in awe by dancing on people’s hands. With songs like “Daylight,” “Let Go” and “Get It,” Matt and Kim kept everyone at Juice Jam in a good mood and reminded everyone why they were there — to have a fun time.

SNBRN was easily the most chill act to grace the Juice Jam stage on Sunday. The night before, he was three hours north in Ottawa, Canada, playing Capital Block Party and even after flying in on a very small plane, the DJ still managed to make small crowd react to his beats. The coolest thing about SNBRN was that when he wasn’t performing, he almost never left the stage. Whether standing on the side snapping pics of iLoveMakonnen on the indie side stage or dancing under the tent on the leftmost side of the main stage to Big Sean, SNBRN had obvious respect for his fellow artists. kasotelo@syr.edu | idamle@syr.edu

SLICE IS RIGHT M Street Pizza offers delicious New York-style slices at affordable prices

M Street Pizza recently opened its doors on Marshall Street in the space formerly occupied by Crepe and Gelato Boulevard. All of the full pizzas are one size, 20 inches, but patrons can grab pizza by the slice. The pizza is cooked to crispy deliciousness in a double brick oven.

kelli mosher staff photographer

By Callie Weinstein contributing writer

Say goodbye to gelato and hello to brick oven pizza. The former Crepe & Gelato Boulevard, located at 113 Marshall St., is now M Street Pizza and is open for business.

I grew up eating pizza at Cosmo’s after football games and was leery of a thin-crust pizza restaurant invading Marshall Street. It turns out that I was wrong. M Street Pizza is the new spot for a good slice.

M Street Pizza is co-owned by SU alumni Gregory Allen and Dave Jacobs. Jacobs also owns Shirt World on Marshall Street.

When I walked in for lunch on Wednesday, the shop was empty. I was surprised that there were not more people there. The pizzeria features an

assortment of New York- style, thin crust pizzas.

Their signature slice is the Philly slice, which has a Cheez Whiz base instead of a sauce.

All of their dough is homemade and handtossed. The pizzas are made in a double brick oven that has a brick top and bottom. This cooks the pizza evenly. The employees were friendly and helped me choose which slices to order. I was stuck between the meat lover’s slice and the veggie garlic slice, so I decided to get both.

First, I tried the veggie garlic. It has a garlic base and is topped with broccoli, peppers, onion and mushrooms. The vegetables were a great addition. I thought it was tasty and had the perfect amount of garlic. I liked the fact that there was no sauce because it was light but still satisfying.

It had great crunch to it and I didn’t feel too full after eating it. I did have to wipe the grease off of

the top of it, but I would definitely order it again.

Next, I tried the meat lover’s slice. This is a protein-packed slice and has a red sauce base.

It is filled with pepperoni, sausage, bacon and ham. I didn’t love it because the meat presence was too overwhelming for my palate to handle.

I thought it was too salty and would have been easier to digest with less meat.

M Street Pizza is located in between Pita Pit and Calio’s. The theme of the pizzeria is Syracuse Basketball and the walls are filled with pictures of former players. All of the employees wear Syracuse T-shirts and caps to show school pride. There is an area for self-seating, along with flat-screen TVs. It’s a cool atmosphere for SU students to watch a game while enjoying a slice.

The pizzeria will soon be offering meatball

sandwiches in addition to individual pizza slices and pies, the owners said. For dessert, it will be serving thick cookies that have the consistency of cookie dough.

All of the full pies are one size — 20 inches.

M Street Pizza does not offer a student discount; however, they do have an all day/all night special, which includes two cheese slices and a can of soda for $5. The pizzeria is open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 3 a.m.

Everything on the menu is reasonably priced and has a similar price point to the other establishments on Marshall Street.

Though most of you are probably thinking we already have pizza joints in town and are locals at either Acropolis or Varsity, this new place is definitely worth a try. caweinst@syr.edu

the box with the ball, Pitts wanted to let it rip.

“I saw an opportunity so I took it,” she said.

The goal injected some extra bounce into SU’s step. A Syracuse team that had been dogged by missed opportunities and poor execution now looked every bit the part of a successful offense. Following Pitts’ goal, SU applied intense pressure in the middle of the field on Colgate’s back line.

Stock up/stock down from SU’s 30-17 victory over Wake Forest asst. copy editor

Now that Syracuse has two games under its belt, more and more is becoming clear in terms of who will contribute for the Orange. SU’s 30-17 win over Wake Forest provided some insight on whose stock is rising or falling as the season unfolds.

Stock up – Donnie Simmons, senior defensive end

Syracuse beat up Wake Forest sophomore quarterback John Wolford and Donnie Simmons was at the forefront of it. Simmons’ pick-six early in the second quarter put the Orange up 13-7, giving SU some momentum and accounting for the Orange’s only firsthalf touchdown.

Late in the third quarter, Simmons caused disruption on three consecutive defensive plays as Syracuse turned the game in its favor for good. With SU trailing 17-13, Simmons flushed Wolford out of the pocket forcing him to throw out of bounds. WFU punted on the next play and one play later, the Orange’s Brisly Estime scored an 89-yard touchdown.

When Wake Forest got the ball back, Simmons rushed from the right and forced Wolford to his left, where he was then sacked by Luke Arciniega. On the next play, Simmons again got in the backfield and tipped a pass, forcing WFU into third-and-13.

Stock up – Syracuse’s running backs

While none of SU’s running backs had more than nine carries individually, the unit as a whole complemented freshman quarterback Eric Dungey well. Devante McFarlane, George Morris and Jordan Fredericks combined for 101 yards on 21 carries as Syracuse only had the ball just under 26 minutes.

After the game, head coach Scott Shafer

from page 16

schneidman a little less predictable. What better way to do that than integrate what was supposed to be the most unpredictable position?

LSU allowed six points through three quarters in a win over Mississippi State Saturday, USF held No. 9 Florida State to only seven firsthalf points and Virginia nearly knocked off No. 8 Notre Dame after allowing just 12 points in the first 30 minutes.

On Saturday, Lewis’ only carry came on a double-option pitch for 17 yards on SU’s first drive. Strickland, after running for 42 yards and a score Week 1, had a sole carry for 12 yards while Syracuse’s offense struggled to get going.

Lester acknowledged it and he’s right, if Lewis or Strickland isn’t open or isn’t needed, then who cares if they get two total touches as long as the Orange wins? He said the pair looked good all week in practice, but Syracuse just didn’t need them against the Demon Deacons.

But if SU sticks between the hashmarks with Dungey adjusting to his full-time role, Syracuse will need as many viable options to make plays outside the hashes when the freshman strays

mentioned the importance of having a strong running game to take pressure off Dungey.

While the signal caller worked through a lackluster first half, the run game kept SU afloat before his two second-half touchdown passes broke the game open.

Stock down – Julian Whigham, senior cornerback

Whigham is one of just three returning starters on the defense and is the most experienced player in Syracuse’s secondary. But against Wake Forest, Whigham didn’t play like it. He got burned by WFU wide receiver K.J. Brent in the first quarter. Brent blew by Whigham after a play-action fake and Wolford’s pass went over the top of him and safeties Chauncey Scissum and Rodney Williams for the 40-yard touchdown.

Later in the game, Whigham had multiple chances at interceptions but couldn’t catch the ball, so he had to settle for two pass breakups on the day.

With sophomore cornerback Corey Winfield picking up his second interception in as many games on Saturday, Whigham’s status as SU’s most reliable defensive back is quickly fading.

Stock down – Alvin Cornelius, junior wide receiver

Cornelius was slotted opposite sophomore Steve Ishmael on the preseason depth chart, but he has since lost his starting spot to Estime and wasn’t even targeted once against Wake Forest. Estime has had two touchdowns in two games while Cornelius has just one reception for 11 yards this season.

With a young quarterback who mostly threw underneath and to non-wide receivers, Cornelius’ role in Syracuse’s offense could be diminished. pmschwed@syr.edu

away from handing it off up the gut. There won’t always be 89- and 53-yard scores to your top two targets to bail out a game.

“With what we were doing, it’s weird,” Lester said. “Because it could be one of those games that Z has 270 yards receiving and the X doesn’t and the next, the X could.”

It’s nice to have Brisly Estime be the Z and Ishmael be the X, but against others the Orange might need a U, W and Y more potent than Kendall Moore and Josh Parris, hardly big-play guys, but ones whose three combined grabs were three more than both backup wideouts.

For now, Philips listens to encouragement from Ishmael. They read Ishmael’s Bible together. They try to stay positive and focus on bigger things in life than football.

Until his return, Philips’ activity, and Syracuse’s versatility on offense will be limited.

“As we continue progressing, I know when he comes back, it’s going to change everything man,” Ishmael said. “…and when he comes, it’s going to open up a lot more.”

We all felt it. It was just a different feel to the game.

We came out on fire and that’s why we scored goals.

Jackie Firenze su midfielder

Alex Lamontagne sprinted down the sideline and muscled up a Colgate defender in the 62nd minute, riding her down the field and stealing the ball away before heading to goal and uncorking a shot from 10 yards out.

Minutes later, Lamontagne again had the ball in transition when her defender fell down. She streaked toward the goal and dished out a cross to Stephanie Skilton who just narrowly missed tapping it in.

“We took this game personally, I think,”

Firenze said.

Wheddon said he saw a different type of intensity from Syracuse today. The Orange brought more desire and polished up their execution. A team that Wheddon said had been “disjointed” at times moved in unison.

Syracuse had crisp runs that kept the Colgate defense off balance. And this time, when opportunities presented themselves, the Orange was able to capitalize.

In the 73rd minute, Sheridan Street threaded a ball through the defense to Koval who had looped around her defender.

Moments later, it was in the back of the net.

The intensity was reverberating across the field again.

“We all felt it,” Firenze said. “It was just a different feel to the game. We came out on fire and that’s why we scored goals.”

Wheddon said he was pleased with his team’s dynamic attack and their finishing around the net.

The defense was well organized too, with the lone goal coming on a penalty kick after Maddie Iozzi tripped a Colgate forward in the box with over nine minutes remaining in regulation.

He noticed the shots on goal during warmups looked exceptional on Sunday. It turned out to be exactly how the game played out.

“Everyone felt it was going to come,” he said. “It was just a matter of when.”

Syracuse will look to even its record at 4-4-1 when it takes on Drexel at SU Soccer Stadium on Thursday at 7 p.m.

Syracuse had some good performances on Saturday from some unexpected players.

ben lewis and dontae strickland With starting hybrid Erv Philips out 3-4 weeks, Lewis and Strickland will need to be used more and in turn produce more against the better defenses SU will face. They had a combined 29 yards on two touches and SU was only bailed out by two 50-plus-yard touchdown passes.

parris bennett The sophomore linebacker recorded an interception and eight tackles Saturday, drawing praise from head coach Scott Shafer. Five of those tackles were of the solo variety and he also had a tackle for loss. After winning the third starting linebacker spot during training camp, Bennett has proved his worth through two games.

george morris ii After running for 5.9 yards per carry against Rhode Island, Morris averaged 7.7 per run against Wake Forest. He tallied 46 yards on six carries and provided a viable option for Dungey to look for in the ground game.

We were +103 in that area, which was good.

by the numbers Syracuse took apart Wake Forest in both the air and on the ground in its win over the Demon Deacons on Saturday. The Orange also had three interceptions to punctuate the win that pushed SU to 2-0.

MacPherson recognized during game

By Sam Blum sports editor

Between the first and second quarter, former Syracuse head coach Dick MacPherson was honored in front of 26,670 orange-clad fans in the Carrier Dome.

Scott Shafer, the current Syracuse head coach, decided to break off from the reality of the game in front of him and talk to the man that he told his players they had to win for.

11-0-1

SYRACUSE WENT UNDEFEATED IN 1987 UNDER THE COACHING OF DICK MACPHERSON, WHO WAS HONORED BETWEEN QUARTERS ON SATURDAY.

ERVIN PHILIPS injured his meniscus during a 47-0 defeat of Rhode Island and will leave the team shorthanded at the hybrid position. Dontae Strickland and Ben Lewis will have to fill in during Philips’ three-to-four week absence.

Syracuse needs more from hybrids with Ervin Philips out

L

ying in bed is not what Syracuse needs Ervin Philips to be doing.

The team’s most versatile offensive weapon will be out 3-4 weeks after having surgery last Tuesday to repair his meniscus and his roommate, wide receiver Steve Ishmael, said that’s what the sophomore hybrid has been up to around their apartment.

Granted, his second-half absence had no adverse effect in a 47-0 drubbing of Rhode Island after he caught two touchdowns in the first frame.

Nor did it in a 30-17 win against Wake Forest. And it probably won’t against

MATT SCHNEIDMAN CLASS IS IN SESSION

Central Michigan next weekend.

But if Philips misses the four weeks Scott Shafer said he might, that’s an LSU-South Florida-Virginia stretch without the 5-foot-11 spark plug that would give freshman quarterback Eric Dungey another option as he grows accustomed to the offense. Hybrids Ben Lewis and Dontae Strickland, who combined for 29 yards on two touches against WFU, need to be used more if Syra-

cuse wants to spread out the better defenses it will face.

“There’s certain plays that I’ll call more when he’s in the game because he’s just so fast and dynamic and getting into space makes a big difference for us,” offensive coordinator Tim Lester said of Philips. “We’ll still run everything but the quantity might change of each play.”

If that quantity is limited, it restricts the Syracuse offense. The Orange ran 37 times against Wake – only once to a hybrid – compared to 14 passes, one of which was to Strickland and none to Lewis. That’s two out of 51 plays directed toward the

do-it-all position that hasn’t done much since Philips’ injury, aside from a Strickland garbage-time score against URI. “You know Erv, he’s so swifty, man, he can move left and right in .0 seconds,” Ishmael said. “From the H position with Erv not there, I feel like (Dungey’s) a little more cautious…I feel like he’s a little more cautious, which made them run the ball a lot more today.”

It’s fine if Dungey gets his feet wet handing the ball off 73 percent of the time, but against a better team than Wake Forest, the offense needs to be

“He means the world to Syracuse,” Shafer said. “Everybody in this community knows it. There’s not a better person. He loves Syracuse, he gave a lot of his life to Syracuse.”

MacPherson went 66-46-4 during his 10-year tenure with Syracuse from 1981-90. His grandsons Macky and Cameron MacPherson both have been or are a part of the program as well. Macky graduated in 2014 and Cameron is a junior tight end for the Orange.

He means the world to Syracuse. Everybody in this community knows it. There’s not a better person.

He loves Syracuse, he gave a lot of his life to Syracuse.

SU breaks scoring drought in win over Colgate

By Matt Alexander staff writer

Following Friday’s tie against Cornell — the third consecutive game in which Syracuse failed to score — Jackie Firenze said she hoped just one goal would revive a stagnant offense and open the floodgates.

On Sunday against Colgate, that moment came in the 53rd minute.

Maya Pitts collected a pass from Alexis Koval near the top of the box, took one dribble to her left and buried a left-footed shot into the back of the net.

Pitts was swarmed by her teammates in a pile of hugs, celebrating a

goal 360 minutes in the making.

“I thought that the players responded to everything that we asked them to do,” Syracuse head coach Phil Wheddon said. “… I thought today they came out with intensity, they came out with desire.”

With an offense kick-started

ended its scoring drought with two second-half goals to down Colgate (2-5) 2-1 Sunday at SU Soccer Stadium. Pitts said that her team hadn’t been shooting a lot lately, and that the times it had, the shots hadn’t been accurate.

So when she stood at the top of see colgate page 13

Dick MacPherson apologized to Shafer as he was driven off the field.

He said he was sorry for getting in the way when Shafer went over to embrace the former head coach following his ceremony.

“There was a lot going on in that moment,” Cameron MacPherson said. “Both in the game, and with my grandfather. I’m really glad that he was able to make it out there and get a beautiful tribute from this city.” sblum@syr.edu | @SamBlum3
