PROTECHTION

SU programs lead the way in cybersecurity education

By Rob Romano staff writer

E

very day Syracuse University’s data is under attack.

Sometimes it’s “door rattling,” or hackers poking at SU’s network trying to find vulnerabilities in the system. Other times it’s phishing, when fake emails appear to be from SU but aren’t.

Though the information is constantly attacked, it is protected.

Information security officer Chris Croad and his

four-person team of students are at the front lines, protecting the university’s information.

SU isn’t just trying to protect itself from cyberattacks; it’s also training students in the L.C. Smith College of Engineering and Computer Science in cybersecurity so they can protect others beyond the university in the future.

As personal information continues to go online, the field of cybersecurity is growing. SU is taking that trend a step further, incorporating cybersecurity into its curriculum and campus. see cybersecurity page 8

Committee seeks community input for Fast Forward plan

By Justin Mattingly asst. news editor

The Fast Forward Syracuse Strategic Plan Steering Committee is now asking for input from the Syracuse University community in the forming of a strategic plan, the committee announced in an email to the SU community on Tuesday afternoon.

The committee will ask for input on

a draft vision and mission statements, conduct a brainstorming exercise, host an open forum and solicit individual input, according to the email.

“We emphasize that the strategic plan will be prioritizing the University as a whole — rather than focusing on the specific schools, colleges, departments and support groups — and it will serve as a vehicle by which the University ultimately can be greater than the

sum of its parts,” the email said.

The vision and mission statements will be changed based upon the input from the SU community before being submitted to Chancellor Kent Syverud and the Board of Trustees at their November meeting, according to the email.

As part of the brainstorming exercise, the Strategic Planning Committee is asking SU groups, such as

schools and colleges, to develop three to five concepts to be submitted to the committee for review and consideration for inclusion into the strategic plan, according to the email.

In addition, two open forums will be held to provide input. The first open forum will be held on Tuesday, Sept.

30 from 4-5:30 p.m. in the Maxwell Auditorium. The second will take place on Monday, Oct. 6 from 11:30

a.m.-1 p.m. in 010 Crouse-Hinds Hall.

According to the email, the Strategic Plan Steering Committee will “entertain requests by topic groups to hear and discuss ideas on a particular focus area.”

Individuals will also be able to provide anonymous individual input on the Fast Forward website through the end of October. jmatting@syr.edu

Asst. director connects with LGBTQ community

By Jesse Nichols staff writer

Michael Riley identifies as queer to express both his racial identity and sexual orientation, which he said gives him greater control over the development of his image.

“It allows me to create my own image of what I would like people to think when they think about me and my sexual orientation,” Riley said. “When someone uses the term ‘gay,’ that individual just doesn’t have a lot of things in connection with me. I think (of) someone that is white, from a different socioeconomic space, maybe interested in different things. And I just think those aren’t really my adjectives.”

As the new assistant director for the LGBT Resource Center, Riley works to provide resources for other students of marginalized identities.

Riley said that much of his focus as assistant director has been on facilitating various discussion groups for members of the Syracuse University community to get together.

“I feel like one common thread (in the challenges faced by LGBT students

of color) is that these identities are very salient, both racial and sexual orientation,” Riley said. “Both their identities become very important to them.”

With a small team comprised of four senior faculty members, Riley said he and his “mighty staff” at the LGBT resource center have been working to provide services to the SU community.

“I think it’s cool to see (the LGBT Resource Center) as both as a place of business, where students are able to get support, but also a place where someone can just sit down on the couch and watch an episode of ‘Charmed’ or ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer,’” Riley said.

In furthering its mission, the center has also created partnerships with a variety of offices on campus, including the Disability Cultural Center.

Moving forward, Riley said he is excited to continue working with students of marginalized identities.

“I look forward for us to really bringing about some new ways thinking about gender and sexuality,” Riley said.

“I’m hoping we can all learn to reexamine and reimagine the ways we support our students across the board.” jlnich02@syr.edu

Former Washington Post editor returns to SU

By Michael Passalacqua contributing writer

At age 85, Harry Rosenfeld is still as passionate about the truth as he was when he oversaw the Washington Post’s coverage of the Watergate scandal 42 years ago.

“Journalism is not dealing in truth,” Rosenfeld said, “(but) questing for the truth.”

Rosenfeld, a 1952 Syracuse Uni-

versity graduate, returned to his alma mater Tuesday afternoon to discuss his new book “From Kristallnacht to Watergate: Memoirs of a Newspaperman,” his experience covering the Watergate scandal and the current state of journalism.

Rosenfeld worked as an editor of the New York Herald Tribune before it ceased publication. Shortly after, he was hired by the Washington Post, first as a foreign editor,

then as an editor of the metropolitan section. There, Rosenfeld worked closely with Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein on reporting the Watergate scandal.

The event saw a turnout of more than 60 people, leaving only a few seats left open in the Newhouse I-3 Center. Samuel Gorovitz, a professor of philosophy, and Roy Gutterman, director of the Tully Center for Free Speech, co-hosted the talk.

Rosenfeld primarily took questions from the audience during the hourlong event.

Many of the questions were about Watergate and how Rosenfeld handled it as an editor. One audience member asked Rosenfeld if he thought Watergate would have been uncovered today, given the way the journalism industry has changed.

Because of the current state

Events foster technology use, civic engagement

By Satoshi Sugiyama contributing writer

Over the next two months, Syracuse community members will be able to tackle social and civic problems from a different angle: by creating apps.

The ProLiteracy Hackathon, held this past weekend in downtown Syracuse, marked the start of a series of four different hackathons this fall, with each event focusing on solving a different problem.

The next hackathon event, Hack Upstate, will be held on Oct. 4 at the Tech Garden headquarters on Harrison Street. The final hackathon event, Hack Hunger and Homelessness will be held from Nov. 7–9 at a location yet to be determined.

AT&T also began the Central New York Civic App Challenge, a twomonth virtual hackathon, running from Sept. 11 to Nov. 11.

Billy Ceskavich, a graduate student in the School of Information

Studies and one of the Engagement Fellows at the Tech Garden, has been working to promote Hack Upstate.

Ceskavich said he believes there is no reason that non tech-savvy people should feel discouraged to participate and compete in the hackathons, since it values individual contribution.

“Anybody can go to these events and join a team and help even if you do not have a strong technical background,” he said.

A hackathon is defined as an event

in which, “computer engineers and software experts create new apps for smartphones, improve processes for existing technology and work to improve the daily function for businesses and individuals,” according to the College of Engineering and Computer Science website.

Tony Kershaw, the innovation specialist at the Tech Garden, said hackathon events not only help participants make connections with professionals,

letter to the editor

Students should attend rally for Advocacy Center at Hendricks On Wednesday, Sept. 17, Syracuse University students, faculty and staff will gather at noon on the steps of Hendricks Chapel to protest the SU administration’s undemocratic closure of the Advocacy Center in June.

The closure happened with little comprehensive planning in place and without student or faculty input at a time when most students were away. The administration gave only five days notice to the AC and the campus community, interrupting crucial services for victims of sexual assault and relationship violence over the summer.

Responding to community outcry, the administration later held two listening meetings.

During this time, students formed the Campaign for an Advocacy Center, working with administration to identify gaps left

by the AC’s closing. We are happy for this collaboration, which helped to ensure that students were educated about services, and that victims of sexual assault have helpful places to go this fall.

But the Advocacy Center was more than just a service for victims. It was a center for turning victims into survivors and advocates, a place that actively challenged rape culture on campus. It provided a central location where all resources were devoted to sexual assault prevention education and survivor support. The Advocacy Center provided comprehensive advocacy services, services not fully available in the same way in the new system.

Our aims with the rally are to create a new center for advocacy on campus, to ensure the university fully devotes its energy

to creating a campus-wide culture of consent practices and sexual assault prevention and to ensure that no more decisions are made about us without us.

We hope that the university will not, on a whim, close another vital center or service without first consulting students.

Rape culture, sexual assault and relationship violence affect everyone, and it is our collective responsibility to support victims and end the cultures that create this violence.

Furthermore, it is our right to have a democratic university, where decisions about our education and campus environment are made with the consent of students.

Congress must continue to block threats to free speech

O

n Sept. 11, the Senate voted down a proposed constitutional amendment that would have overturned the decision in Citizens United vs. Federal Elections Committee.

In that decision, the Supreme Court ruled based on the First Amendment that the government cannot restrict independent political expenditures by corporations, unions and other associations.

The proposed amendment, officially called Senate Joint Resolution 19, has good intentions, but could pose dangerous limits on freedom of speech. Compromising on the First Amendment is a risk that should not be taken and the Senate should continue to shoot down proposed amendments regarding free speech.

Introduced by Sen. Tom Udall (D-New Mexico), Senate Joint Resolution 19 proposes that “Congress and the States may regulate and set reasonable limits on the raising and spending of money by candidates and others to influence elections.” The resolution further states that “Congress and the States shall have power to implement and enforce this article by appropriate legislation, and may distinguish between natural persons and corporations or other artificial entities created by law, including by prohibiting such entities from spending money to influence elections.” Lastly, SJR 19 states that “Nothing in this article shall be construed to grant Congress or the States the power to abridge the freedom of the press.”

Seems simple enough; the resolution would allow the government to have the power to restrict spending by corporations and other groups so that they cannot unfairly influence the democratic process.

Or, to put it another way, the government would have the power to jail or fine groups of citizens for participating in political speech.

The intended effects behind the amendment are well-meaning. The resolution aims to keep small groups of individuals from obtaining too much power in the political

CHRIS PULLIAM

COOL, CALM, CONSERVATIVE process through monetary contributions.

However, granting Congress the ability to restrict spending made by groups of individuals only puts power into a smaller group of hands. One hundred Senators and 435 Representatives having the means to restrict political speech is a much higher concentration of power among a smaller group of people than any corporation making a donation toward a political advertisement.

Supporters of the amendment would argue that corporations are not people. However, corporations are groups of people. Individuals should not lose their First Amendment rights when put in aggregate. A group of individuals still retains its respective individual rights.

SJR 19 not only restricts corporations, but also covers “other artificial entities.” These entities could include nonprofit organizations and labor unions.

What if the American Association of Retired Persons wants to donate to a candidate who wishes to spend more federal dollars on Medicare? Labor unions and nonprofits, like corporations, are groups of individuals who compile resources to achieve a certain goal. These individuals have the right to free speech; why should they lose it when they join together in a group?

Keeping the democratic process as fair as possible is a noble goal, but sacrificing First Amendment rights and giving more power to politicians is a dangerous road to go down.

Free speech dodged a bullet with the blocking of Senate Joint Resolution 19.

Whitman program needs improvements Although it’s good for Syracuse University to explore innovative ways to teach students, the Martin J. Whitman School of Management should limit its new Harry Potterstyle program to its freshman class.

The program, officially called the Goodman IMPRESS program, aims to motivate students to involve themselves in career-building activities outside of class. The Harry Potter angle comes in the form of a point system and sorting students into the “houses” of Adams, Marshall, Waverly and Harrison. Students can receive points for their houses by building their skills outside of the classroom, like attending lectures or becoming Microsoft certified. The house with the largest amount of

points by the end of the year will win the “Goodman Cup,” named after program supporter alumnus Kenneth Goodman.

IMPRESS could be a good way to encourage freshmen to become involved in the extra-curricular activities Whitman has to offer.

It has the potential to be a fun learning tool for new students and could act as a good transition from high school to college activities.

However, the concept of placing students in houses to have them compete for points during their entire college career seems childish.

The idea of the program also raises issues of self-motivation versus reward. Though turning outside-of-class learning into a competition can be an effective

way to spur students to do work outside of class, students should be motivated to do that work without the incentive of getting more points than their friends or winning a prize of the end of the year.

After freshman year, the concept of self-motivation is especially important. Rewarding students throughout their four years at Whitman could lead to some becoming solely motivated to receive points and beat their classmates.

Finding new methods to increase students’ skills is a good idea. But to make this concept even stronger, Whitman should limit the program to freshmen and expect upperclassmen to self-motivate without a reward.

SU should enforce truly Meatless Monday to reduce greenhouse gases

A

n Aug. 31 study conducted by the University of Cambridge has concluded that if we do not dramatically alter our world food system, greenhouse gases from food production alone will make overall GHG reduction goals for 2050 impossible. The main culprit is meat.

Syracuse University, and a long list of other places, has adopted the Meatless Monday campaign. This is positive. But nothing is stopping anyone from walking right past the colorful campaign stickers, loading up their plate with fried chicken and a rack of ribs and never stopping to think about the environmental implications of their food choices. SU needs to take Meatless Monday seriously and have a meat-

DARE TO BE A FORCE OF NATURE free dining hall every Monday.

Anything less is inadequate.

By eliminating meat from the menu one day a week, Syracuse students will actually be forced to think about this larger issue.

It’s easy to ignore the issue and think one person cannot make a difference. It’s thoughts like these that are detrimental to collective progress.

We need not only to be informed but we must want to be informed.

For some, this light switch has already turned on . For others, a truly meatless Monday may do the

trick.

When people think of GHG emissions people generally think of energy production. However, as of 2012, our global food system accounted for roughly one-third of all GHG emission. This information was gathered by the Consultative Group on International Agriculture. This trend is on the rise.

According to the University of Cambridge study, by 2050 cropland will have expanded 42 percent and fertilizer use will have increased 45 percent over 2009 levels. Further, another tenth of the world’s tropical rainforests will be extinct.

These projections have the food industry alone upping their GHG emissions by almost 80 percent, thus making worldwide GHG emis-

sion goals impossible.

The main culprit for these emissions is methane. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, livestock produce large amounts of methane during their digestive process. Mass storage of animal manure is also a heavy methane source.

In theory Meatless Monday is a fantastic idea. In practice, it needs to be revamped. With worldwide recognition, Meatless Monday has the potential to make a significant impact on the way people see their food. For starters, universities participating in Meatless Monday can become true to its meaning and have a completely meatless Monday.

Currently, the SU Healthy Monday page explains the meatiness

of Monday dining halls a result of actually staying true to the campaign. The dining halls work hard to emphasize meatless options but will not abandon the “personal choice” principles that Meatless Monday was founded upon. This is what needs to change.

Providing the chance to make choices that are smarter for the planet is not enough. World food trends are worsening. We need an intervention. Disrupting a destructive pattern of consumption one day a week is a great place to start. It’s time for Meatless Monday to live up to its name.

Former Washington Post editor talks career, time at SU

By Michael Passalacqua contributing writer

The Daily Orange: What inspired you to write your recent book, “From Kristallnacht to Watergate: Memoirs of a Newspaperman?”

Harry Rosenfeld: First of all I wanted to leave the story of my life and times for my family, that’s how it began. But when I got into it I was convinced by people and my family that this was more than just a story that should be written for my family, that this was a tale that resonates in the American experience. An immigrant boy comes here and more or less makes good and so forth. So then I switched gears a little bit and dropped some of the personal detail that I might have included and focused more on my career.

whitman as make it fun. That is why we also wanted to have an incentive and some competition,” she said.

The program divides students into four houses named Adams, Marshall, Harrison and Waverly.

Within each house there is a house master, a career counselor and a group of peer mentors.

Students are randomly assigned a house, regardless of major. This year’s first year students are the first participants in the program. The four house masters are Whitman SOM 122 professors, a required first-year introduction to business class.

The D.O.: How would you say your time at Syracuse University helped you in the newspaper industry?

Rosenfeld: Well it helped me in my life in general. For me, Syracuse was a transforming experience. It enlarged my view of the world and my understanding of it, both through literature and public policy courses. I owe an enormous amount to my years at Syracuse. You could say that it made me the kind of person that I became.

There are those people who think it’s now the end of newspapers, while other people think they’ve now hit rock bottom and are going to start coming up again.

Common sense tells you that they may not be sufficient anymore.

The D.O.: Do you think newspapers are a dying breed?

With an incoming class of 500 students, Joseph Personte, the IMPRESS program manager, said the program was designed to build relationships between professors and students.

The new program uses extracurricular activities to encourage students to develop skills.

Students are encouraged to participate in mock interviews, listen to guest speakers, attend career events and develop important business skills.

By taking part in these activities, students collect individual IMPRESS points that also go toward their house, creating competition not only among individuals but also among houses.

Students will also be able to keep track of their score using a leaderboard on a smart-phone app.

Sixty-two peer mentors, each taking on one to two groups of five-to-six students, also joined the initiative.

“I was drawn to the IMPRESS program as a peer mentor because I thought it was a great idea to motivate students to be active outside of the classroom,” said Sarah Whittaker, an undeclared sophomore in Whitman, via email. “We, peer mentors, were asked for our input when creating the program and it has been a great experience to see our ideas transform into reality.”

The program will also be beneficial to students looking for jobs and internships, Nicholson said. Students will also be able to put their IMPRESS points on their resumes so that their

future employer will be able to see that they have more skills than their peers, she said.

Corporate partners with the school are informed of the program and have been provided with a moving scale, so they can decipher the points’ meaning, said Lindsay Rapp, the assistant dean for undergraduate programs at Whitman.

With the increase of added work, students still understand that it’s beneficial for their future.

“As the job market gets more competitive, it is important for employers to see students engaged in more ways than academics,” said Hannah Epstein, an undeclared sophomore in Whitman. “We become more than just a GPA.”

one of the most selective as to the information that it wants in and that it wants out.”

Many students such as Michael Riccardi, a freshman political philosophy and international relations major, chose to come to the event because of Rosenfeld’s reputation.

“I chose to come see him because I’ve always had a passion for journalism and I think he is an icon for journalism,” he said. “He’s a glimpse into the past for all of the stuff that went on during Watergate and is one of the only people who can tell the story authentically.”

Rachel Gilbert, a freshman newspaper and online journalism major, said she thought Rosenfeld provided an interesting insight on journalism styles, how journalism has evolved and one man’s perspective on telling the truth.

Throughout Rosenfeld’s talk, truth was always stressed as the most important quality in a journalist.

“Truth is an important word,” Rosenfeld said. “It isn’t the end of the story — it’s the beginning of the story.”

rosenfeld of the Internet, Rosenfield said he thought Watergate would have been uncovered more quickly, but the reporting would not have been as thorough.

The Washington Post’s reporting did not cause Nixon to resign, he added, but the persistence of the paper’s reporting caused Congress “to finally stop playing games.” Congress had the power to subpoena witnesses and have them hold up their right hand and swear under oath, not the Washington Post, he said.

“I can promise you, my life would have been a lot simpler as an editor if I had subpoena power,” Rosenfeld said, drawing laughs from the audience.

Rosenfeld also discussed the Obama administration’s handling of journalists.

“The Obama administration is one of the most oppressive administrations when it comes to freedom of the press,” he said. “It is

quences, political consequences and in our terms, journalism consequences. Journalism can deteriorate into this gossipy what-is-thisbit, what-is-that-bit. The reason that journalism is important is because it’s supposed to be an executor under the First Amendment to keep its eye on the powerful and if it doesn’t do that then it isn’t journalism, not the journalism that I want. So if you want to use Twitter, then use it, but do it seriously and not say what your opinion is on what you think should happen or what you think might have happened to create some narrative. You have to find out the facts, all of the facts.

Hackathons also offer a unique place for people with various backgrounds to form “interdisciplinary teams” and to approach social issues with different perspectives, he added.

J.D. Ross, director of communications for the iSchool, said he has been actively promoting the hackathons through the university’s iSchool blog, news website and information space. He added that the university has been

involved with the hackathons by offering judges for the contest and collaborating closely with the Tech Garden.

“On a curriculum level we have a faculty that teach courses where students end up down on Sandbox as a part of coursework,” Ross said.

Syracuse Student Sandbox is the Tech Garden branch that supports fledgling entrepreneurs.

In the future, Ceskavitch said he hopes to stay involved and encourage more people from SU to attend hackathon events.

City council withdraws vote on legislation banning employers from asking about criminal history illustration by dylan cownie contributing illustrator

By Anagha Das staff writer

P

otential Syracuse city employees lost a shot at omitting their criminal history in job applications last week when Ban the Box legislation was removed for consideration in city council.

The legislation would have made it illegal for city employers to ask a job applicant whether he or she has been convicted of a crime, according to a Sept. 10 syracuse.com article. The bill was also designed to further prevent job discrimination against ex-convicts, which is already illegal in New York state, the article said.

Ban the Box would do what the title of the law suggests: eliminate the criminal history box on employment applications.

“One out of four adults in the U.S. have a criminal record. That is a lot of people to be discriminated against if they check the box on an application, and of those it is disproportionately people of color,” said Alan Rosenthal, a lawyer from the Center for Community Alternatives, in an email.

Rosenthal said he believes Ban the Box is a way to provide economic opportunities for those who desperately need jobs to support themselves and their families.

CenterState, a local business group, commissioned a study by the Brookings Institution about eight months ago that discovered the average wage in Syracuse is almost 20 percent

1 in every 108 The ratio of adults in America that were in prison or jail in 2012 source: the sentencing project

lower than the national average. The study also states that Syracuse is among the most economically segregated regions in the country.

“The Brookings Institution report tells us what the problem is: access to economic opportunity remains a persistent challenge,” Rosenthal said. “Ban the Box is a citizen-driven solution to open up economic opportunity.”

Councilor Khalid Bey revoked the bill because community activists for the bill were not willing to make a compromise with Mayor Stephanie Miner’s office on an amendment that would have made the bill pointless, according to the Syracuse.com article.

Rosenthal said a flyer was distributed explaining how the bill was hijacked by a “poison pill” amendment at the last moment.

The amendment states the bill will not apply to “any positions that may have direct or indirect interaction, involvement or contact with youth under 18 years of age, senior citizens or the physically or mentally disabled.”

According to a letter by the Ban the Box Steering Committee within the Center for Community Alternatives to supporters, the committee thinks the amendment would make the legislation inapplicable to every position for which the city hires, therefore allowing every contractor and the city manager to claim that the bill doesn’t apply to them.

“Passage of this ordinance with this ‘poison pill’ exception will not merely accomplish

nothing, but it will also do real harm,” the committee’s letter stated. “It creates the illusion that something is being done to help when it is not, thereby promoting cynicism and frustration with Syracuse city government.”

Patricia Warth, co-director of justice strategies at the Center for Community Alternatives and a member of the committee, has mixed feelings about the bill being pulled. She said supporters of the bill definitely did not want the “poison pill” version of the bill to be passed.

“The poison pill would have made Ban the Box a mockery,” Warth said. “The Committee is glad Councilor Bey didn’t go forward with the amendment, but we’re disappointed he pulled the bill all together rather than passing it without the poison pill.”

The Steering Committee had a meeting Monday night to discuss a plan for pushing the bill forward. At the meeting, Warth said they encouraged people to continue to support the legislation and oppose the amendment.

Warth added that several people have called the office since the bill was pulled last week.

“We’ve realized there’s a lot of support out there for Ban the Box, and we’re going to turn this disappointment into positive energy and work forward,” she said. amdas@syr.edu

cybersecurity One of the first steps in protecting data, Croad said, is performing risk assessments to understand the potential damage caused if information is stolen. Croad and his team have to ask themselves important questions.

“What is the risk to the university if types of data are exposed? How many resources do we have to spend to try and protect that data and where can we best spend those resources?” Croad said.

What was once a person in their basement trying to prove themselves to the hacker community is now organized crime. Originally, Croad said, most attacks were done by individuals but now attackers are often organized criminals. They want NetIDs and passwords of SU students so they can gain access to other SU resources, send more spam and enter databases with valuable information.

“That’s all stuff that can be sold on black markets,” Croad said. “It’s pretty profitable work.”

At the forefront With constant development in cyberphysical systems like power grids, automated manufacturing and cars, cybersecurity is a growing field, said Steve Chapin, a professor of computer science.

dailyorange.com news@dailyorange.com

“Having a system that you can trust is going to be increasingly important,” he said.

SU is at the forefront of these developments.

The National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security named SU a National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance and Cyber Defense.

The university is one of 18 institutions across the nation to receive the distinction this year, which is the first time it was awarded, according to an Aug. 15 L.C. Smith press release.

One of the scientists doing research at SU is Kevin Du, a professor of computer science. He has published a series of open-source lab exercises known as the SEED Project, to enable instructors to give students hands-on experience in cybersecurity. After 13 years of developing the labs and spreading the word about them at conferences, Du said faculty at about 250 universities in 30 countries use the labs.

“I just wanted a student to be able to do something in class, in addition to learning the theory and principles,” Du said.

In August, Du received an $800,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to bring professors to SU so they can be trained to use these labs in their classrooms. He said he hopes to have two workshops for about 60 faculty members to train them in using the exercises.

Du teaches two fundamental courses in

cybersecurity at SU: one on computer security and another on internet security. Each class has about 80 students in it, Du said.

intensive program, so you need to have the right background to be able to take it,” Srinivas said.

Outside opportunities Specialized programs The university also offers specialized programs to immerse students in the study of cybersecurity. One is an Educational Partnership Agreement with the Air Force Research Lab in Rome, New York and the other is the Cyber Engineering Semester, said Vijay Srinivas, senior director of corporate relations and technical alliances in SU’s Office of Technology Transfer.

The Cyber Engineering Semester launched in 2011 enables scientists from Rome to come to SU and teach students about cybersecurity.

The semester is also open to ROTC students from other universities.

The 18-credit semester consists of courses in computer architecture, secure computer hardware and operating systems, among other things.

“In too many curricula, security is taught as an add-on, as a standalone module or as a standalone course, and the students don’t seem integrated with the other courses that they take,” Chapin said.

But this semester, the program is not running because not enough students enrolled. It can be difficult to recruit for and fill the program because it’s difficult to meet the criteria, Srinivas said.

“This is a technically and mathematically

In addition to the semester program, students also have the opportunity to participate in a paid 10-week internship at the Air Force Research Lab in Rome during the summer. The internship focuses on concepts like mission assurance, which involves facilitating digital communications between people on the battlefield, said Shiu-Kai Chin, a professor of electrical and computer engineering.

Another program is SU’s 10-year $30 million partnership with JPMorgan Chase. The bank runs a technology center on cybersecurity and risk management in Lyman Hall. JPMorgan Chase funded Chin’s research on the authentication of money transactions between corporations. Students in the cybersecurity programs have been able to intern for JPMorgan Chase.

Senior computer science major Carter Yagemann said he worked for JPMorgan Chase as part of its ethical hacking and their cyberthreat and intelligence teams and has taken Du’s course in internet security.

“Being able to tell an employer that you have some awareness in security,” Yagemann said, “that’s very valuable to them.” rromano@syr.edu

The big picture Freshman gains recognition for travel photography

By Alex Erdekian asst. copy editor

I

t’s not uncommon for students to leave the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications having published their work in the likes of CNN. com, BBC.com and Photo District News. What is uncommon is entering Newhouse with these accomplishments.

But freshman photojournalism major Chase Guttman has each of those publications on his resume. The 17-year-old travel photographer was published and honored for his work many times throughout his high school career. Earlier this month, on USA Today he was voted the No. 3 top travel photoblogger.

“I was very excited to be nominated by USA Today, and I think it’s an indicator of the next chapter of my career, and I hope it means great things are to come,” Guttman said.

Guttman is no stranger to awards, though. Among his many distinctions, he was named Young Travel Photographer of the Year in 2010 and 2013, and he was the first American to ever win the award.

Travel photography is in Guttman’s blood. His father, Peter Guttman, is an award-winning travel journalist.

“My only real professional training was my dad,” Guttman said. “Following in his footsteps and just seeing how he saw the world and how he showed

the world through his camera.”

But Peter Guttman doesn’t take credit for his son’s success.

“He had such a good eye that when we first got him a camera, not before too long, he would be in the precise spot I would want to be to get a shot, but he was already there,” his father said.

Peter Guttman stressed that his son’s success is something he achieved on his own — not because of his father’s career in travel photography. Guttman is now even helping his father to find professional opportunities.

Guttman was featured in the chase guttman New York Institute of Photography’s “Top Ten Travel Photo Tips: From Ten Pro Photographers” book. Only after he was interviewed for the book did the institute call his father to ask for an interview as well. The two were both featured in the book.

Both father and son say their love and passion for photography has given them a special bond; it’s something they can do together. The duo hopes to visit Antarctica in the future and also go tornado chasing in upcoming summers. see guttman page 10

Marshall Street bar DJ’s on the Hill introduces VIP section

By Clare Ramirez and Phoebe Smith the daily orange

Going out on Marshall Street isn’t the most luxurious experience, but one campus bar is providing students with VIP service.

Velvet ropes, mood lighting and a new couch are only a few of the elements of the new VIP section at DJ’s on the Hill on Marshall Street.

For the first time, the popular bar has created a secluded room in an elevated, stage-like area that customers can now rent out for an evening.

Mike Cauchon, the manager of DJ’s, said Syracuse University students kept asking him for a VIP area with bottle service, so he decided to give it a try.

“They wanted a space where they could have their own friends, and they could do their own drinking,”

Cauchon said.

Cauchon said the new addition, which can seat 25 people comfortably, is sponsored by vodka brands Ciroc and Grey Goose. After going through the process of getting the brands’ approvals, Cauchon said renters can choose which of the two they want to receive through bottle service.

The price to rent the private room is $300, which covers the two bottles of the

renter’s choice, a private bartender and a private bouncer. In determining the price, Cauchon said they looked at other bars with private rooms, most of them in New York City, and went from there.

“In New York City, sometimes a VIP room would be three grand and would include only one bottle,” Cauchon said. “Obviously this isn’t New York City, so we wanted to make it a price that kids could afford.”

Cauchon advertised the VIP section on Facebook and Instagram about a month ago to get the word out about the new space. Three SU students reserved the space even before classes started, one of which used the area on the first day that the bar opened.

“I’m sure it will emerge into other things, but as of right now, we’re just testing out the waters to see dj’s page 10

guttman In addition to various media outlets, Guttman has also shot for clients such as Fodors Travel Publications.

When Fabrizio La Rocca, a longtime family friend of the Guttmans, was the creative director at Fodor’s Travel, he hired Guttman to work on a digital project that featured panoramas of New York City and geotagged hotspots.

“He’s curious and interested in people,” La Rocca said. “It’s not easy to place yourself in front of people from different parts of the world that don’t speak your language and don’t understand what you’re trying to do and get them to be natural.”

Guttman’s inspiration comes from his father, but also from photographers like Sebastião Salgado and Henri Cartier-Bresson.

He is driven by the idea that you only live once.

“It’s cheesy as hell — but in general, life just inspires me. I only have one life to live,” Guttman said. “My entire life goals are about seeing as much of the world and experiencing as much of the world as I can, and I just so happen to do that through my photography.”

As a travel photographer, Guttman has been to all 50 states and 48 countries. Of all the photographs he’s taken, he has one favorite: a photo taken at the Wigwam Motel in San

Every time Guttman looks through the viewfinder, he captures not only a photo, but also a memory.

My entire life goals are about seeing as much of the world and experiencing as much of the world as I can.

Chase Guttman freshman travel photographer

One of these memories that particularly stood out to Guttman took place during a family road trip through the South.

When his family was camping on a platform in the middle of a swamp filled with crocodiles in South Carolina, Guttman woke up covered in mosquito bites all over his body, even on his face.

The next day, he found himself face to face with President Jimmy Carter. The family had driven down to Plains, Georgia to attend Easter mass at Carter’s church. By chance, they ended up sitting at the same table as Carter and his wife at breakfast.

His interaction with Carter — despite the persistent itch from his mosquito bites — had

College of Arts and Sciences, thinks that the VIP section is a great addition to DJ’s on the Hill.

“The VIP section is definitely a positive change to the bar, and I think it’s a really cool idea,” Rose said. “I might invite some of my friends to join me in the VIP area on my birthday.”

special meaning because of Guttman’s passion for U.S. history and politics. He has been able to recite all the U.S. presidents in order since he was 5 years old. His dream is to one day be the White House photographer.

Guttman’s advice for aspiring photographers hoping to break into the industry is

simple: go out and do it.

“It’s really just about going out there, experiencing life and happening to have your camera with you,” Guttman said. “If you’re already doing that and you’re having a good time, then that’s the way to go.”

Sophomore marketing and entrepreneurship major Gabby Del Vecchio has been a regular customer at DJ’s since her freshman year.

She believes the VIP room is a cool concept, but doesn’t think that a lot of people would be willing to pay the money to rent it.

“We’re in Syracuse, not New York City or Boston, where everyone is classy and cool,” Del Vecchio said. “The VIP section is probably where people will pass out on the couches and get too drunk.”

LUIS ANTONIO

WHO, WHAT,

WEAR

Text and photos by Eliza Weinreb contributing writer

AUGUST GETTY

Fashion designers debut their collections one season ahead so buyers can predict trends and plan what to stock for their respective stores in the coming months. During last week’s New York Fashion Week, designers such as Nicholas K, Luis Antonio and August Getty revealed their lines for the Spring/Summer ‘15 season.

nicholas k The collection and its inspiration Brother and sister design team Nicholas and Christopher Kunz went on an adventure to a wild safari in their Spring/Summer ’15 collection. The garments — exposed, yet polished — included khaki chinos, utility jackets, loosely draped tops, and long, silk headscarves. The clothes were complemented with horsehair accessories, Casio G-shock watches and futuristic goggles.

The Kunzes executed their designs flawlessly, carrying their vision through the entire collection. Ideas of feminine power, exploration and survival were woven into the clothing effortlessly.

What this means for stores and trends Spring/Summer ’15 will see natural materials, such as leather, light cotton, linen, cashmere and silk. Clothing will be loosely fitted, but shape-conscious. Side-tie skirts may return, while headscarves, headpieces and hoods seem to be definite upcoming trends.

Neutral, earthy tones such as olive, charcoal, crisp white, camel and aqua will be seen on the racks. Fringe is likely to appear next spring, but mainly in the forms of cotton and wool.

Harem pants of this season will switch to scrunched, silk cargo pants with lots of pockets in the next couple of seasons.

luis antonio The collection and its inspiration

NICHOLAS K

Puerto Rican designer Luis Antonio paid close attention to flattering fits in his Spring/Summer ’15 collection. Often pairing tight bodices with full skirts, Antonio recreated his own version of Dior’s classic “New Look.”

Soft, feminine silhouettes were starkly contrasted with vibrant colors and architectural patterns. The collection was

centered on practical elegance, giving women the option to dress up without sacrificing comfort. The designer’s color palette included true red, navy blue and cream beige. Antonio’s garments had high necklines and interesting back detail.

What this means for stores and trends In Spring/Summer ’15, the cropped shirt and long skirt combination that emerged this past season as an alternative to dresses will remain a wardrobe staple. However, the two-piece set will get a minor revamp. Antonio’s collection suggests that the current formfitting pencil or midi skirt will be replaced with a free-flowing maxi skirt.

The designer’s collection also suggests modern, graphic patterns will make a comeback next spring. The bold lip, a beauty favorite, will remain.

august getty The collection and its inspiration August Getty’s premier collection focused on concepts of female dominance and strength. His ideas were translated into edgy, asymmetrical garments in light pastel colors.

Getty accentuated the best parts of a woman’s body by drawing inspiration from femme fatale and his sister. Pieces included structured jumpsuits, metallic dresses, lacey cupcake dresses, and ruffled capes. The color palette was limited, concentrating on black, baby pink, silver and lilac. Getty played with the construction of the power suit, varying length, type and pigment.

What this means for stores and trends Getty’s capsule collection points to sharp, sexy shapes in the spring. Colorblocking will continue to see its way into stores.

notebook said, the Orange has little choice but to stay zeroed on its next opponent before looking to the Irish, which is ranked No. 9 in the latest AP Top 25 poll.

Junior wide receiver Stefon Diggs leads Maryland this with 17 receptions, 13.5 yards per catch and a touchdown. Senior receiver Deon Long has chipped in 10 catches, 12.9 yards per catch and a touchdown.

William Likely and Avery Thompson have each returned punts for touchdowns this season.

“They have playmakers on the outside on offense, they have a great kick return, punt return guy,” he said. “Defensively, they do a lot of different things that can cause you issues and it’s easy to stay focused on Maryland.”

Shafer gives injury update Shafer clarified the health of tight end Josh Parris, wide receiver Quinta Funderburk and linebacker Parris Bennett during the head coach’s weekly Tuesday teleconference.

Parris, who was set to be the Orange’s starting tight end before sustaining a knee cartilage injury and having surgery Aug. 27 is day-to-day, Shafer said.

He practiced for the first time since the surgery on Monday, tight ends coach Bobby Acosta said. Acosta said he practiced full-contact and made impressive catches in limited reps.

“He could play 50 snaps a game, he could play 20,” Acosta said. “But I think the reps he will contribute will be quality reps.”

Kendall Moore and Jamal Custis have played in his absence. The junior Parris has 13 career receptions for 90 yards and two touchdowns.

“We’ll find out where he is at the end of the week,” Shafer said.

Funderburk, a senior wide receiver, didn’t make the travel roster for SU’s 40-3 win against Central Michigan. But he doesn’t have any injuries, Shafer said. Funderburk has three receptions for 50 yards in five career games.

The freshman linebacker Bennett also didn’t make the trip with the Orange, which was due to a slight injury.

Said Shafer: “Parris Bennett got banged up a little bit in practice, so we hope to get him back soon.”

Shafer tells why Hunt played full CMU game As Syracuse reserves filtered onto the field in the Orange’s blowout win against Central Michigan on Saturday, Terrel Hunt remained.

Shafer said during his Tuesday teleconference that he left his starting quarterback in the game to get increased action and that he ran out the game well. Hunt finished the 40-3 win with 175 passing yards and a touchdown to go with 92 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

After missing the end of the first half and all of the second of SU’s season-opening, double-overtime 27-26 win against Villanova, Hunt scored the Orange’s final touchdown with 59 seconds left in the Central Michigan game on Saturday.

“I see everything,” Shafer said, when asked if he saw Hunt get hit running in a touchdown with 3:43 left. “But he came in and played well — finished the game the way we wanted to.” jmklinge@syr.edu | @Jacob_Klinger_

cross-country

SU’s Lennon returns from sickness to compete at high level

By Jon Mettus staff writer

During the heart of the cross-country season last year, Dan Lennon wasn’t running with his teammates. He wasn’t in the training room or practicing by himself, either.

Lennon was in his bed, unable to leave for about a week. He often felt like he was going to pass out.

Usually, he’d throw up two or three times a day. It was good if he didn’t feel completely exhausted.

“He had been training hard and he had expected a lot from himself at that point,” said Betsy Lennon, his mother. “He had been training hard and then to get sick like that — he was pretty down.”

Lennon didn’t know what the sickness was, but his season was over. The junior spent the next few months resting, eating healthier and working out to bring his body back to where it was, and it’s given him extra motivation already this year.

He finished sixth overall at the Harry Groves Spiked Shoe Invitational at Pennsylvania State

University on Saturday and is hoping for an All-American-caliber season.

“I think I must’ve just been working a little bit too hard and not eating enough or not getting enough sleep,” Lennon said. “But I’ve been taking care of that a lot more this season. “ It all started the morning of the Wisconsin Invitational in October, one of SU’s biggest meets of the year.

Lennon had just one race under his belt on the year — a 20th-place finish at Boston College three weeks earlier.

“I woke up and I’m like ‘This isn’t going to be a good day,’” Lennon said. “I had the warm-up for the race and I felt like I was going to throw up right there.”

Lennon decided to run despite feeling nauseous, a decision he regretted. He finished 281st out of 287 runners.

After being out for over a month, Lennon attempted his first workout since being sick in November. Head coach Chris Fox told him

if the workout went well, he’d try running him in regionals.

It didn’t.

“I couldn’t break five minutes in the mile,” Lennon said. “It was horrible. I couldn’t even believe it. It was a terrible feeling. Everything bad that could’ve happened, happened.”

From there, he waited. Lennon didn’t try to work out again until December. He started slow with an hour on the stationary bike and 15 minutes of running every day.

During winter break was when it all came together. He was eating healthier, running two times a day and making sure to nap in between runs.

“It was difficult, but I just remember thinking, ‘I need to get back to where I was,’” Lennon said. “‘I need to be there for cross next year.”

Lennon contemplated skipping the track season to get back for cross-country, but was running full workouts again by January. At the Penn State Invitational on Feb. 1 he placed second overall in

the men’s indoor track 5,000-meter race.

He then finished sixth in the 10,000-meter event at the Atlantic Coast Conference Outdoor Championship.

Heading into this year, Betsy Lennon said her son was dedicated to maximizing his last two years of college running. Fox said Lennon will be successful if healthy, and can be anywhere from the first- to the fourth-best runner on the team on a given day.

Lennon has increased the amount he stretches, and also bakes and grills his chicken instead of frying it, thanks to a cookbook his mother made him to take to school.

He’s also more conscious of the sleep he gets this season, staying in bed on his own terms.

“Now that he’s back this year, I think he’s kind of been on a mission to prove that he was supposed to be there last year,” junior Martin Hehir said.

“He’s head and shoulders above where he was, so we’re really excited.” jrmettus@syr.edu

Bono moves up SU program ranks with 3-0 win over Cornell

By Josh Hyber staff writer

With one minute remaining in regulation, Syracuse goalkeeper Alex Bono clapped his hands and yelled at his teammates to pass the ball around in the offensive third.

Syracuse led 3-0, and by then the game’s result wasn’t in question. But Bono was still energized until the moment that would push him deeper into the SU soccer record books.

As the seconds ticked down and the Orange secured victory, Bono calmly walked 40 yards back to his cage and retrieved his gloves. No exuberant yell. No fist bump.

Just another ho-hum shutout for the junior goalkeeper.

Bono made three saves to help No. 23 Syracuse (5-1, 0-1 Atlantic Coast) prevail 3-0 over Cornell (2-2-1) on Tuesday at SU Soccer Stadium. The

Effectively, he extended his season. He remembers that each fall some of his Blue Devils teammates would return to Durham not in good enough shape to play a competitive game. They hadn’t all summer. They’d been working summer internships. And for some of them, it took two months — half the season — to get there.

“If everybody’s not rowing in the same direction — it’s the old adage, you’re working against yourself,” said Brendan Burke, Northeastern associate head coach and SU goalkeeper Alex Bono’s former coach at Reading United. “All it takes is a couple to not be focused on what they’re doing.”

shutout, Bono’s fifth of the season, slid him into sole possession of second place on the all-time SU shutouts list with 23, moving past Robert Cavicchia (2005-08), who made the drive from Toronto to attend Tuesday’s match. He is now eight clean sheets away from tying Joe Papaleo for first on the program’s all-time list.

“It’s an honor and a privilege and I’m blessed to have the opportunity to even be put on that list,” Bono said. “But no one remembers second place.

Next up is first.”

In all, Bono needed to make just three saves to earn the victory. The Big Red had a significant scoring chance early in the first half but midfielder Tommy Griffin sent a shot just over the crossbar.

“Watching him in goal, I’m almost reliving when I was a keeper, and I haven’t played in a while,” Cavicchia said after his first time watching Bono play. “He did everything correct … From watching him play tonight, he’s definitely one of the

top keepers I’ve seen on TV or competed against.” “… I hope he ends up at first place on the list.”

Syracuse head coach Ian McIntyre pointed out after the match that Bono made the routine plays when called upon.

Early in the first half, the goalkeeper came off his line to corral a Cornell crossing attempt, colliding with Cornell forward Conor Goepel. Bono fell and remained on the ground for a few seconds, but stood up unscathed.

With the Orange leading 2-0 midway through the second half, Bono came out of his cage the furthest he had all night, running 40 yards out to kick away a loose ball and prevent Cornell sophomore Jack Ferguson from getting a point-blank scoring chance.

Making plays with his feet is the attribute Bono said he has improved on most over his Syracuse career. Defender Jordan Murrell said after the game that he works with Bono every day on that

facet of his game.

“He saved us a few times tonight and we thank him every day for it,” Murrell said. “As a defender we take pride in clean sheets. Being six games in and having conceded only one goal, it’s very good for the boys.”

After the match, Bono put the night into perspective. When he talked to reporters, he hadn’t yet talked to Cavicchia, but said he planned to take a playful jab at the former SU keeper for passing his record.

With the rest of his junior season and whole senior year ahead of him, Bono knows he has time to accomplish more than just individual feats.

“We’ve never made a final four, we’ve never been in an ACC tournament final four, we’ve never had an ACC championship or an NCAA championship,” Bono said. “Those four team awards are the next four on my list.”

behind and tend to have narrower, lower-paying career paths with some even sliding out of MLS into the United Soccer League PRO division or the North American Soccer League.

On Aug. 28, Stanford sophomore midfielder Jordan Morris became the first college player called up to the U.S. men’s national team since 1999. Of the 18 other field players named to the roster for the U.S. friendly match against the Czech Republic on Sept. 3, only four had played any college soccer.

It showed.

“The main thing that I noticed is the speed of play is so high,” Morris said. “I think just as you keep moving up levels, that’s a huge difference is just — everyone is so technically gifted to get to where they are at that level.”

Without college soccer, Morris wouldn’t have been with the national team in Prague, Czech Republic. He said he wasn’t physically or technically developed enough coming out of high school and Eastside FC, a youth club in Washington.

Morris didn’t even know if he wanted to play

professional soccer then, he said.

But he thinks college soccer should change.

An extended season, he said, would give more players more practice on their individual skills and team play, raising the level of external and internal competition.

“It’s kind of hard when you’ve got a whole year left to put all your focus into getting technically better,” Morris said.

For decades, college soccer was practically the only route to being a professional soccer player in America. Former U.S. national team midfielder and Reading United technical director Troy Snyder remembers the original North American Soccer League folding when he was playing at Penn State in the mid-1980s, leaving American soccer with no nationwide system of organized soccer more competitive than the NCAA. And while college soccer today is surrounded and becoming overmatched by MLS teams, theirs and other U.S. Soccer Development Academy teams, it is better than it was then, Snyder said.

“I think college kids are training harder in the

weight programs, just everything about it has gotten much more serious in all aspects of it,” Snyder said. “… I still disagree with the number of games. I think they should play more games.”

SU midfielder Stefanos Stamoulacatos just missed out on his youth club, Empire United, joining the U.S. Soccer Development Academy system. Empire aligned with the New England Revolution until his senior year of high school.

He’s trained with Greek professional clubs AEK Athens at age 17 and Olympiacos when he was 15. There, practicing was just a matter of doing one’s job, he said.

Stamoulacatos also wants an extended, more spread-out college season. He acknowledges that some schools, not wanting to invest in a two-season soccer team, might drop their programs as others create more professional training environments.

“Do whatever it is to make it more professional-like,” Stamoulacatos said. “I guess there would have to be sacrifices.”

After getting out to an early lead, the Orange back three buckled down and shut down the Big Red attack.

“It’s a testament to our guys,” McIntyre said. “We found a way to get the result tonight.”

After wide-open Cornell midfielder Tommy Griffin nearly scored early on, defenders Louis Cross and Jordan Murrell unleashed vocally on the Syracuse midfielders to find their marks.

Goalkeeper Alex Bono screamed for his team to push up out of the defensive third whenever he corralled the ball.

But the tide suddenly changed from a Big Red-dominated game to one that the Orange

Second half, we came out really well. We knew we had to be tighter, get the defense together a bit more, so I think we did pretty well.

had firmly in its grasp.

Ekblom took the ball to the left edge of the box before laying it off for Stamoulacatos atop the 18. He one-timed it to Pasanen, who side-footed the ball into the top left corner from 20 yards out in the 18th minute, beyond the outstretched left arm of Cornell goalie Zach Zagorski.

“Amazing,” Pasanen said of his goal. “It was a great play on the left side. It was the best feeling. It’s always good to get the first

goal.”

A minute later, Chris Nanco came in for Stamoulacatos and immediately wreaked havoc on the Big Red back line. He dangled left defender Zach Bialik on the right flank before cutting inside and feeding Ekblom, who volleyed the ball into the bottom-right corner for his third goal of the campaign.

The Big Red nearly cut the lead in half shortly after, when Bono bobbled a bouncing shot and Cornell forward Conor Goepel got a toe on it, but the ball trickled wide left to preserve the shutout.

It was the closest Cornell would come, despite having a multitude of semi-chances, as Cross — in replacement of the suspended Skylar Thomas — remained steadfast in the center of the back three.

“It was a bit of a shaky start, but I think we adjusted well,” Cross said. “Second half, we came out really well. We knew we had to be tighter, get the defense together a bit more, so I think we did pretty well.”

Syracuse threatened to extend the lead several times early in the second half, but were unable to convert. Ekblom beat two defenders with back-to-back spin moves in the box before hitting the left post. Oyvind Alseth beat four defenders before unleashing just wide left. Alex Halis ripped a shot that Zagorski was just able to hold onto.

Bono and the back line weren’t tested nearly as much in the latter stages of the game as the Orange’s five-man midfield continued to put the Cornell defense on the back foot, virtually until the clock hit triple-zeros.

Perea added an insurance tally with just more than two minutes remaining that beat Zigorski at his near post, providing a fitting conclusion to a game that, after a shaky SU start, seemed all but decided.

“This Cornell game was a tough test for us,” McIntyre said. “Now we take a deep breath for a few hours and get ready for Coach (Mike) Noonan and his talented Clemson team.” mcschnei@syr.edu | @matt_schneidman

By Jacob Klinger

“We already are,” McIntyre said.

As Major League Soccer evolves, more and more professionalized club academy systems are scooping up players, allowing teams to sign local talent to Homegrown contracts — which don’t count against team salary caps. There are increasing and better opportunities. Without action from the NCAA, coaches say, there is a closing window in which college soccer can stay relevant.

he best 18-year-old soccer players in the world, in America, aren’t playing college soccer. There’s no reason for them to. They can practice, play and get paid to do so with professional teams around the country and globe, constantly perfecting their craft.

There’s another set of players, almost as good, who can get even better. But they go to college and don’t get the practice to fulfill their potential. It’s NCAA policy to limit players to 20 hours of practice per week in-season and eight out of season – though there are further limits on how much they can practice with their coaches.

Syracuse head coach Ian McIntyre is part of a coalition of top college coaches — including Maryland’s Sasho Cirovski, Indiana’s Todd Yeagley and supported by West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck — pushing for the NCAA to change its regulations on Division I college soccer and allow teams to play a few more games in an extended fall-spring season.

“We are one of the more mobilized coaches groups out there,” McIntyre said.

“This is something we’ve talked about for the last year or so.”

Collegiate soccer, along with the game in the rest of the country, has improved in the past 30-plus years. But if college soccer doesn’t reform now, McIntyre and other coaches argue, it will lose out on more top talent.

Shafer talks focus on Maryland

By Jacob Klinger asst. sports editor

In 11 days, Syracuse will play Notre Dame in MetLife Stadium in a game to be broadcast at 8 p.m. on ABC. But the Orange (2-0) meets Maryland (2-1) first, at 12:30 p.m. Saturday in the Carrier Dome. Avoiding distraction is hardly an issue for Syracuse, head coach Scott Shafer said, and he added that the Terrapins are too quick, talented and dangerous to be overlooked.

“Daily the message is ‘Focus on ourselves, and then focus on the opponent ahead.’ End of story,” Shafer said during his weekly teleconference on Tuesday. “It’s easy to stay focused on Maryland because when you watch them on tape, they’re a very good football team.”

With the Terrapins’ ability to hurt opponents with its receivers, special teams and defensive schemes, Shafer
