PROFILE
Judge Alex Ferrer stays true to Miami roots UM law alumnus hosts television show BY REUBEN TORENBERG CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER
For the last eight years, Alex Ferrer has been solving consumer complaints, landlord disputes, and conflicts and confrontations between families and co-workers. He does it in 30-minute TV episodes seen daily in 96 percent of the country. According to Variety magazine, his show, “Judge Alex,” averages about 3 million viewers a week. While he is now a national figure, Ferrer built his success right here in Miami-Dade County – with an important stop at the University of Miami School of Law. Ferrer’s parents came to Miami from Cuba, fleeing Fidel Castro’s communist regime in the early ‘60s, when Ferrer was just a baby. His parents gave up a comfortable life in Cuba to start from scratch in Miami. His father’s first job was unloading plantains from hot railroad cars. Ferrer’s mother, who had learned English in Cuba, was able to get a job in Miami as a legal secretary, but she also worked during her lunch hours selling shoes to bring in money for the family. “They taught me to have a strong work ethic,” Ferrer said. “Watching them succeed, and watching the fruits of their labor, really motivated me to start working.” At age 15, as a freshman at Coral Park Senior High School, Ferrer took a job at a gas station and would work eight-hour shifts, seven days a week. By age 17, he was managing the station. He had met several policemen during his stint with the gas station, and his grandfather had been a police officer in Cuba, so after his high school graduation, Ferrer obtained a job with the
Coral Gables Police Department patrolling at the University of Miami. At 19, Ferrer was the one of the youngest police officers in the state of Florida. His parents encouraged him to continue his education, so Ferrer got his bachelor’s degree from Barry University and then decided to go to law school at the University of Miami. Ferrer would go to school from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m., and would then patrol from 4:30 p.m. until 12:30 a.m. Some days, if he made FERRER an arrest late at night, he would be filling out paperwork until 2 or 3 a.m. After graduating law school as a published member of the University of Miami Law Review, he took a job with the law firm of Sparber Shevin, then followed Bob Shevin to another law firm, Stroock & Stroock Lavan. Later, he opened his own law firm. “I liked law, but litigation wasn’t so appealing to me because you were always fighting with someone,” Ferrer said. “Somebody said black, and you said white. I wasn’t looking forward to work every day.” Ferrer then decided that he wanted to be a judge. “I’ll bet being a judge is gratifying because you’re always trying to do the right thing,” he remembered thinking. At 33, he was elected Circuit Court judge in Miami, a position he held for 10 years: nine as a criminal court judge, and one as a family court judge. At 44, Ferrer said, he hit a fork in the road. Shortly after he applied for a position as an Appeals Court judge, he was offered a daily television show. The decision was difficult because he knew
that eight out of 10 new TV shows fail every year. The Appeals Court was a dream position for any judge, and he could lose that opportunity forever and be out of a job in a year if the show didn’t succeed. After weighing his options, he chose to take the show, which is now syndicated across the country. A big attraction was the fact that he would be able to spend more free time with his family and see his children grow up. Ferrer would have to shoot episodes periodically for four months, and he could spend the other eight months on other endeavors. Ferrer has two children who have been instilled with the hard work ethic that Ferrer grew up within his own household. “In my house, there were no excuses,” said son Taylor Ferrer, 20, a pre-med student at the University of Miami majoring in psychology. “Every time I would complain about something, my dad would tell me how much harder he had it as a kid and how much he worked to be successful.” During the taping season, Ferrer flies from Miami to Los Angeles for a full week every three weeks. He tapes about nine shows a day. During the other eight months, he appears on different television and radio shows throughout the country, doing legal commentary and promoting his show. He also gives speeches at schools concerning law and the benefits of perseverance and a hard work ethic. In each episode of “Judge Alex,” a different case is presented and resolved, with Ferrer offering a thorough explanation of why he made that particular ruling, teaching viewers more about the nuances of the law. “I’ve been watching ‘Judge Alex’ for three years,” said Carmen Florez, a 77-year-old Doral resident. “Every episode brings an interesting case that my girlfriends and I love to sit down and discuss over coffee.”

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Manatees grace university canals, waterways Human interaction puts mammals at risk BY LYSSA GOLDBERG ASSISTANT EDITOR
The wildlife on campus includes fearless squirrels, flocks of ibis searching for Sebastian, Muscovy ducks that own the walkways – and even the occasional family of manatees. Manatees are marine mammals that mostly feed on sea grass. Commonly referred to as sea cows, they are large and slow-moving and live in warm tropical environments. With manatee sightings infrequent, and many students coming from states without marine mammal populations, trouble can arise when students spot them in canals on campus. “We saw pictures on Facebook of people being in a kayak and going up to the manatees or touching the manatees in the canals on campus and around campus,” said Chrissy Houston, secretary of the Marine Mammal Stranding Team. The pictures have since been taken down off Facebook. Manatees are protected under federal law by the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) and Endangered Species Act (ESA), and under state law by the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act of 1978 (FMSA). “When you see an animal, you want to go up and touch it because you’re like, ‘Oh, it’s just a big fat manatee, like it can’t do anything,’” Houston said. “But it could hurt you and you could hurt it.” Pamela Sweeney, who teaches a graduate class called Marine Mammal Conservation and Management, said that manatees come to the
canal to seek a warm water refuge when it is cold. “The Coral Gables Waterway is one of a handful of warm water refuges where manatees go to seek sanctuary in these colder months or when there’s a cold snap,” she said. The canal running past the School of Business Administration and out past the Panhellenic Building connects to the Coral Gables Waterway and then out to the greater body of water that is Biscayne Bay. “Manatees are moving up and down the southeast coast of Florida all the time and they’ll enter these rivers or sometimes creeks,” Sweeney said.
How it’s harmful When people touch or interact with manatees, it poses a danger because this changes the behavior of the manatees. “… By feeding them ... by touching them, altering their behavior, it keeps them in a place where they shouldn’t be for too long, or encourages them to go toward boats and docks and marinas where people are, so that becomes a really big problem,” Sweeney said. Manatees going up to boats may get injured. “A quarter of the [manatee] deaths every year are attributed to watercraft,” Sweeney said. “That’s a completely preventable cause of death.” Another possible outcome is that the manatees feel scared of the humans and don’t choose to return to the warm-water canals. “It’ll stay out in the ocean and get cold stress, and that could damage the flippers,” Houston said. “They can’t move as well, and it gets really hard to heal that.” According to Sweeney, there is empirical
evidence that shows that when contact is engaged with a manatee, 30 seconds into the interaction, the manatees are looking to flee. “We have this misconception that manatees want to engage with us,” she said. “We have this notion of marine mammals sometimes in general that they’re sort of here for our amusement.”
Legal repercussions The MMPA makes it illegal to hunt, kill, capture or harass any marine mammal, or attempt to do so. Harassment includes acts that may disrupt the animal’s behavior patterns. The ESA also prohibits pursuit of an endangered species. Fines can range from $500 to $50,000 and imprisonment up to one year. “It’s about your intention,” Sweeney said. In the past year, two high-profile violations of the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act have occurred. In November 2012, a woman from St. Petersburg was arrested on a misdemeanor warrant after authorities were presented with a photo of her riding a manatee two months earlier, according to a report by NBC Miami. This past February, a man from Ft. Pierce was arrested because he had posted photos of himself playing with a manatee calf on Facebook, according to another report by NBC Miami. There was also a photo of his daughter sitting on top of the manatee. Tony Lake, associate dean of students, said that no incidents with manatees have been brought to the Dean of Students Office (DOSO) in his five years in his position, but that there would be a number of factors to look into should a case be brought to DOSO. The Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook prohibits swimming in Lake Osceola or the adjacent waterways. The policy also
prohibits being cruel or inhumane to animals. But, according to Lake, the main concern is with the university’s public laws policy. Students are also required to comply with local, city, county, state and federal laws, which would encompass the MMPA, ESA and the FMSA. Thus, touching a manatee on campus would be a violation that the DOSO would have to address. “It would be something that would start the discipline process,” Lake said. “… I have a feeling that there would probably be some educational type of sanctioning, as opposed to more of the punitive.”
Education Many students, especially those who are not from Florida, may not be educated about manatees enough to realize this is a problem both environmentally and legally. “People probably don’t know because they’re not like a dolphin,” Houston said. “You don’t just see manatees all the time.” However, senior Robert Wagenseil, who is from Sarasota, Fla., where there is a significant population of manatees, said he knew that touching manatees is illegal. “We love our outdoor and water activities, especially boating, and many of these laws come as common sense to us,” he said. “… I don’t consider myself an environmentalist, but I think that everyone should know the laws that protect our wildlife.” Sweeney said that if other people were better educated about manatees, they would change their behavior. “Just like any endangered species, we should observe them from a distance because our presence has only caused harm in the past,” she said.
Manatee mania These large, slow-moving mammals attract attention and affection, which can put them in danger. Learning about the animals and the laws that protect them helps save their lives.
Manatees are marine mammals that reside in tropical waters.
Manatees are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act. Fines can range from $500 to $50,000, or imprisonment of up to one year.
Manatees exposed to water temperatures below 68 F for an extended time can get cold stress syndrome.
During the colder months, they seek warm water refuge in springs that are 72 F year round or manmade waterways, such as the canals on campus.
Human interaction with manatees can alter their behavior, which may make them more comfortable with humans and more likely to approach boats and sustain injury.
On the other hand, manatees may be afraid to return to the site of human reaction and remain in the cooler waters and get cold stress syndrome. DESIGN BY CARLOS MELLA

SpectrUM kicks off Pride Awareness Week Events celebrate diversity in sexuality BY REBECCA COHEN SENIOR NEWS WRITER
The annual SpectrUM Pride Awareness Week kicked off Sunday with the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade on sunny Ocean Drive. SpectrUM is the LGBT resource on campus. Its purpose is to educate students about diversity within sexual orientations. “SpectrUM is the space to explore and see other people, engage and have a sense of colorful diversity and solidarity,” SpectrUM President Shelby Juarez said. Feathered with UM students, the parade brought participants a sense of pride far beyond what they had imagined, junior Luna Cornin said. Cornin was walking in support of her best friend, another UM student who would like to remain anonymous. They sported matching rainbow sweatbands and bright-colored tops. After the Pride Walk, SpectrUM members’ excitement for the week have been set in motion. Senior Christina Robinson, support chair of SpectrUM, reflected on the walk. “It was a spiritual experience for me,” she said. “It was ridiculous. Tons of people, half-naked men, and tons of mingling.” The week will take a quieter turn on Monday with the Day of Silence, a silent protest in which people choose not to speak in order to create awareness about LGBT issues. Some students put duct tape on their
mouths, and others choose to stay silent. The purpose of this day is to commemorate people in the LGBT community who have suffered from assault, harassment, homicide and suicide. Monday’s festivities will close with a candle vigil to further commemorate those who have suffered from LGBT related crimes on the Rock at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday will begin with a religion panel that addresses the overlap between religion and LGBT issues. On Wednesday, SpectrUM will host Marriages on the Rock to promote marriage equality. “Anyone can marry anyone at Marriages on the Rock – just not more than one person,” Robinson said. Marriages on the Rock include a flowing red carpet, white cake, a ring pop and a certificate of marriage. In an effort to promote the event during last year’s Pride Week, Juarez arranged with Robinson’s professor to make a public marriage proposal to Robinson. Unfortunately, Robinson decided to pass on class that day. However, Juarez rebounded fast and proposed to another friend in the class. The two were happily married later that day. During the Drag Show on Thursday, there will be a talent portion, presentation, a strut down the stage, a dance and question component. Anyone can participate in the show, and Juarez and Robinson will both be starring in it. Students can visit the SpectrUM office (UC244) to sign up to participate. Although the club has activities and meetings all year, members feel that this week

is an opportunity to get out of the office and engage with the entire UM community as a whole, according to Juarez. “This week is really awesome and is the least intimidating way for people to engage with SpectrUM,” Robinson said. “Everyone is able to come up and approach you and not have to worry about people wondering they’re gay or not.” SpectrUM is a tight-knit community of about 50 regular members. Being in SpectrUM means accepting that you’re a minority and
then becoming stronger as a community, Robinson said. “I am comfortable in this community and now am comfortable in other communities,” she said. “The fact that I know that I have done what SpectrUM has done for me for other people is something I am very proud of.” To get involved in SpectrUM’s Pride Awareness Week, visit the SpectrUM office in UC224 or email Shelby Juarez at s.juarez@ umiami.edu.

Executive Board amends constitution, adds new council Liaison aims to maximize efficiency BY JORDAN COYNE COPY EDITOR
On Thursday, the day after the new Student Government’s (SG) inauguration, the SG’s Executive Board issued the second press release of its term to announce its newly approved Campus Liaison Council (CLC). The council, chaired by Chief of Staff Mike Piacentino, will consist of 14 students to serve as the means of communi4

cation between SG and various administrators and departments around campus. “What we’re trying to do this year is become more strategic” Piacentino said. Two years ago advisory boards existed for each area of campus. This past year, the advisory boards were condensed into three categories: IT, Campus Relations and Programming. The CLC will replace the current advisory boards in an effort to further streamline the communication process. This alternative board will better organize and facilitate the

dialogue between SG members and administrators that is necessary in approving and executing projects, according to Senator Brianna Hathaway. “This year there was a lot of miscommunication in that multiple people would email the same person over and over again,” she said. “With this system, it’s so much easier to get things passed, to get things done, and to get things approved.” In developing the new council, Piacentino made a point of reaching out to not only administrators and members of the executive board, but also past advisory

board chairs like Jonny Diaz to overcome previously faced obstacles. “I think it’ll be more focused,” said Diaz, chair of the campus relations advisory board. “I think the most noticeable change to students not involved in SG would be … more projects coming to fruition during their time.” Two students will sit on the council to represent each area of campus. Those areas include auxiliary services, campus facilities and security, dining services, information technology, university libraries, and parking and trans-
portation. Sports and Recreational Interests Clubs Federation Senator Jake Schwartz was also involved in the initial conversations and contributed the idea of an additional liaison for health and wellness. “There is a board through the Wellness Center, and SG has a position on it that has been completely underutilized,” he said. “[The CLC is] going to refocus SG efforts, make sure the student body is more represented in their decisions, and also give SG better access to [administrators].”

Hurricon’s anime celebration transforms campus Event appeals to multiple fandoms BY ALEXANDER GONZALEZ ASSISTANT EDITOR
The sounds of karaoke singers, all dressed in anime attire, replaced the UC Sunday humdrum for the second annual Miami Hurricon led by the Anime Club. “There are people who have come as far as Gainesville,” said Ashu Joshi, the president of the Anime Club. Hurricon celebrated the Japanese cultural art form anime, which has been made popular through graphic novels and television shows. Well-known anime includes Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh. Fans of other cultural staples like BBC’s “Doctor Who” attended as well. A main experience of Hurricon is “cosplay,” in which attendees dress as their favorite characters and participate in a costume contest. Freshman Matias Stanham was dressed as Ash Ketchum, the main character from the Pokemon series. “It was the easiest costume to put to-
gether and what I could borrow from my friends,” he said. “I went to the Pokemon trivia for the experience.” Other events included a video game room in the iLounge, where gamers put their Nintendo and PlayStation skills to the test, and various vendors selling original crafts and fan-gear. Angie Bousalis, the former president of the Anime Club, ran a booth and was excited to see how this year’s executive board carried out the event she helped found. “They are much more efficient this year and fixed last year’s problems like registration flow,” she said. “And we sold quite a bit last year.” Last year, 600 participants attended and increased to this year’s estimated 1,000 costumed fans, Joshi said. The preparation for Hurricon begins at the onset of the spring semester and involves finding sponsorships to donate prizes and provide support, finding speakers in the community to talk about trends in anime, and acquiring sources of funding. Rachelle Mariano, the club’s treasurer, prepared the budget and was grateful for the help that the Student Activity Fee Alloca-

Mariano believes that Hurricon’s appeal is that it is an entirely student-run event and for no profit. “We put our heart and soul into it,” she said.

Innovation leads to success From grade school to middle school and into high school, students are taught to get ready for college, but not ready for the innovative and rapidly changing world that lies ahead. Individuals go into college knowing they will all be taking general education requirements – English, mathematics and history – while filling up the rest of the necessary requirements with core classes and electives needed for our majors. During these moments we’re learning how to memorize facts in order to do well on exams and research papers. However, we’re not learning how to apply our knowledge to real-world scenarios that will help us succeed in the future. In a recent article published in The New York Times, Harvard education specialist Tony Wag-
ner says that “high-wage, middleskilled jobs” are no longer available in the job market. Because of this, students need to be taught to be “innovative” and “add value” to everything they do. “Knowledge is available on every Internet–connected device, what you know matters far less than what you can do with what you know,” Wagner said. As the world becomes digitized and the answers to questions are readily available on Google, learning how to regurgitate facts does nothing for us. Learning how to take initiative and think creatively is what education needs to be focused on. It is essential in today’s society for students to be intrinsically motivated to be able to find their purpose and calling. In order to be able to compete against millions

Degree won’t lead to dream career e hear it all the time: “Today’s undergraduate degree is yesterday’s high school diploma.” Today’s graduate degree is yesterday’s undergraduate degree. Everyone needs one to compete, right? With unemployment circling the economic sky and student CHRIS IVORY loan debt rising faster than LeBSTAFF ron James on an alley-oop, graduCOLUMNIST ate school is enticing. It gives you time to delay your entrance into the work force while adding hype to your resume. However, what makes sense in theory doesn’t always pay dividends in practice. Before investing in those practice books, investing in your life outside of school has more benefits than drawbacks. The party does not continue in graduate school. Instead, it comes to a grinding halt. Writer Sydney Nolan once said, “Graduate school is a different place.

As a law and journalism graduate student myself, I approve this message. A graduate degree with no work experience marginally separates you from the pack. You may have had internships during college, but empathize with an employer. If your last quasi-meaningful work experience was a three-month stint during the summer of junior year, how impressive is that in comparison to someone with the same degree and years of experience? Touting a graduate degree does not replace unproven credentials, but instead can be rather shallow and pedantic, as Peter Griffin says. By the time college graduation rolls around, we’ve been in school for nearly 17 consecutive years. Experiencing life outside of the classroom is the next step in defining your persona. As corny as it sounds, you are young and have mounds of opportunity at your feet. And like most young adults, you are likely to change your mind quite a bit. Now is the time to take risks, learn about yourself and be creative. Even if you fail, there is plenty of time to recover. Graduate school is not going anywhere any time soon. Going to graduate school is your career timeout. Play the game of life just a little bit and use it wisely. Christopher Ivory is a second-year law student.

A two-year starter for the Hurricanes, Brandon McGee started 24 straight games to end his career. He was known as the Canes’ shut-down corner and had three career interceptions. His 54 tackles in 2012 ranked sixth on the team while his two interceptions tied for the team lead. He was selected to play in the 2013 EastWest Shrine Game and was invited to the 2013 NFL Combine in Indianapolis. His community service activities include MDC City Cleanup, Miami’s Bone Marrow Drive and Deserve Victory Tour. A 3.1 GPA student, McGee graduated with his bachelor’s degree in sports management and a minor in entrepreneurship in December 2012.
Nrithya Sundararaman started 30 contests last season and led the ACC with 10.72 assists per match. The setter finished her career third in program history with 2,358 assists. Earning honorable mention AVCA All-America, All-ACC and AVCA All-Region honors, she effectively distributed the ball around with five Miami players racking up at least 250 kills. The Naperville, Ill., native was selected to the 2012 Capital One Academic All-America® Division I Volleyball Second Team.

The play tells the story of a nurse who falls for a wealthy French expatriate and a marine lieutenant with a native islander. The play is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book “Tales of the South Pacific” by James A. Michner. HOLLY BENSUR // STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER ENCHANTED EVENING: Lt.

Q&A
3OH!3 talks guilty pleasures, Jimmy John’s BY MARLEE LISKER STAFF WRITER
3OH!3 came on the music scene five years ago with advice that would define a generation through the hit single “Don’t Trust Me.” Since then, they’ve kept listeners dancing with their lively beats and catchy lyrics. Now they’re back with a new album, “Omens,” which hits stores June 18, just in time for Warped Tour. The music video for their new single, "Back To Life," features a mock robbery. The band holds up a seafood counter using a fish instead of a gun. The Miami Hurricane got the chance to sit down with Sean Foreman and Nathaniel Motte about their new single, musical roots and where their passions truly lie. The Miami Hurricane: What was the idea behind the video for “Back to Life?” Nathaniel Motte: I actually wrote that scenario a while ago and just had it sitting around. It’s representative of our sense of humor. It’s kind of ironic and weird and funny. TMH: And what was the inspiration for the song? It has a different
vibe from some of your past songs. Sean Foreman: That was the first song we wrote toward this new album. A lot of people know us because of our singles, which are very dance-driven, but a lot of the songs on our albums are very different. It still has what we like to do with 3OH!3, which is have fun and present energy in a song, but it’s a different tempo ... I would describe it as a party ballad. TMH: How do you think your new album, “Omens,” is different from albums you’ve released in the past? NM: Most of the songs go back to how we started making music and that’s just me and Sean in my basement in Colorado. We collaborated ... with some producers and songwriter friends of ours for a few of the tracks, but really we consciously wanted to pull everything back, use all the knowledge that we’ve learned and apply it to our music. TMH: Going back to your roots for a second, how did you get started in the music business? NM: We met on Match.com: “Man seeking man for boy band.” SF: We met back in college at CU. We had similar taste in music.
TMH: Do you guys have any musical guilty pleasures? NM: I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. I only believe in pleasures ... We both came from a place where for a while we were in an underground scene in music where it wasn’t cool to like certain kinds of music. That’s some people’s attitude, but I don’t think for me it’s the right one because I think you should like music for the music that you like. TMH: When did each of you realize music was something you wanted to pursue as a career? NM: Even in the early phases of our operation, music was kind of a hobby. It only dawned on me that it could become a career later. We were on Warped Tour in 2008 and we had agreed to do the whole tour, but I was actually supposed to go to medical school right as the tour was ending. It was that summer that I faced a pretty big dilemma. I ended up deferring school and doing music and obviously I’m super happy that I did that. SF: I always thought I would play music. I didn’t know to what capacity or if I’d ever make money doing it ... I wrote my first rap song when I was in fifth grade and to this
day I still remember it. It’s corny as hell. TMH: If you hadn’t gone into music, what career would you have wanted to have? SF: I’d still be working at Jimmy John’s, delivering sandwiches. I had a passion for that. I love the thrill of not knowing if you’re going to get tips and the smell of a frat house in
the morning when you’re delivering a sandwich. That’s really nice. NM: Getting tipped in beer bongs? SF: Getting tipped in beer bongs. Or not tipped at all. But, you know, it’s the passion. For more information on 3OH!3, visit 3oh3music.com.

MUSIC REVIEW
So Cal rock quintet impresses with new album BY SAMANTHA NASTI CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER
If there’s a favorite rock quintet from Southern Cal that we’ve been missing dearly, it’s undoubtedly The Material. The band managed to carve a permanent mark of its name with its previous studio album release a couple years back by delivering fiery sound on stages like Warped Tour and being featured on MTV’s Buzzworthy last month. And now they’ve done it again: The Material’s new album, “Everything I Want To Say,” is potent, moving and empathetically memorable. The band’s new single, “Life Vest,” is the first track on the album, which flaunts deep, hypnotic chords and sweetly tantalizing vocals, immediately sucking you into the compilation. Lead singer Colleen D’Agostino told The Miami Hurricane the track is an overall band favorite. “It’s ultimately a hopeful love song,” D’Agostino said. “I think that resonates with each member and makes it more
meaningful.” Filled with soul and impact, the track is addicting; the chorus being brilliantly relatable as she pleads to her lover, “Let us drift out to sea, and forget what used to be/My home is wherever you are, lying next to me.”

The album continues with a string of powerful tracks with a dark confessional feel. Between the upbeat radical tone of “Born to Make a Sound” and fervent forceful cries in “Tonight I’m Letting Go,” the band’s personal internal struggles are blatantly apparent and listeners are left feeling empathetic and mournful. In “Running Away,” D’Agostino assumes a staunch disposition as she belts, “The heartbreak, the broken dreams, there’s no use repeating/I’m running away, you won’t catch up to me.” The Material says the album title, “Everything I Want To Say,” does just that – admit what they’ve been yearning to let out. “We use music to express how we feel,” D’Agostino said. “It’s really great to be able to relate to each other through music. I went through a lot this year in my own journey, and when it was tough to talk about, I put it into my lyrics.” The two-year writing process allowed the band to release the purest, tastefully aggressive tracks the group has ever released. April 15 - April 17, 2013
In the track “The Great Unknown,” the band pauses their vigorous chords and cries, and demonstrates a sweetly vulnerable side in a 45-second nocturne. The album ends with a hopeful and lifting aura, and the spirit left over is striking. The album dropped last Tuesday, and it’s definitely worth a listen. The Material will soon hit the road to promote the new release. “We definitely are firming up plans for a regional tour this summer, which will be announced soon,” D’Agostino said. “We would love to get out to Florida again. Hopefully that will happen soon!”

Spring game theatrics highlight Miami’s progress Lewis makes first play since injury BY KRISTEN SPILLANE SENIOR SPORTS WRITER
Ominous clouds and torrential rain could not derail Miami’s spring game, as the skies cleared for kickoff and the Canes showcased their months of progress. The first team orange squad – led by senior quarterback Stephen Morris – emerged victorious on Saturday, 35-20, over the hardnosed second team squad dressed in stark white jerseys. The orange team was first on the scoreboard with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Morris to sophomore receiver Herb Waters, who earned the spring’s most improved on special teams award. Just minutes later, the white squad answered in the end zone. Junior Ryan Williams, fighting to become Morris’ backup under center, connected with sophomore receiver Garrett Kidd for a 13-yard score. The highlight of the half came on a 75-yard touchdown reception for Malcolm Lewis. It was the sophomore’s first appearance since his severe ankle injury last fall against Georgia Tech. Both the orange and white squads followed Lewis into the end zone after coaches staged a wide-open catch. “It felt real good, I appreciated the moment that coach [Al] Golden gave me, I appreciate him for it. It just felt good to be on the field again,” Lewis said. “They told me to play and I just ran on the field, it happened just like that.” His return to the field was a moment of physical and emotional redemption. “It was a touching moment for me, shows how much my team really cares for me, and I really appreciate the guys for that and I love them,” Lewis said.

a glimpse of what’s in store for this fall. What they didn’t expect was a blast from the past. The white squad was graced by the appearance of UM’s Gino Torretta, the former Heisman Trophy winner. Torretta took a snap from ex-center Brett Romberg, and he connected with Houston Texans all-pro receiver Andre Johnson for a 45-yard touchdown. The surprises just kept coming. Dallas Crawford, a starter for the white team, recorded the last touchdown of the day with a 2-yard carry for the orange squad

that extended the lead to 35-17. Crawford got traded at halftime. The excitement and energy on the field was matched by the buzz of the fans, from pregame tailgates and ticket events to autograph signings. First time season-ticket buyer David Trujillo of Pembroke Pines, Fla., decided 2013 was going to be his year, purchasing front-row seats in section 402. “I’ve been watching the recruiting, been watching what coach Golden has been doing, and I think he’s leading the team in the right direction and so the season looks

promising,” Trujillo said. “Maybe make it to a national championship – I think we have a chance of making it to a pretty good bowl.” The spring game was a pulse point for the upcoming season. “It’s a long way away,” Golden said. “I think we came out here healthy today, we’re fortunate and blessed that we did that. Now we’ve got to finish up school, get ourselves in good condition and back and ready to play.” Golden is pleased with the Canes’ maturation and development. “We’ll be as good as we want
to be over the next four months,” he said. “We’re coming together as a team, starting to understand the little things and how they impact our team.” For Morris, this year is the year, and the excitement is already building. “I’m getting goose bumps right now talking about it,” the rising senior said. “Just having the end in mind, meaning we were so close to a championship last year, we gotta keep pushing forward. Whatever we did last year wasn’t good enough, so we gotta keep on going forward.”

Volleyball wins national title in Dallas Club gears up for next season BY ALEXANDER GREEN CONTRIBUTING SPORTS WRITER
The Miami football team didn’t get to play for an ACC title last fall, and the basketball team may not have gone as far as many predicted in the NCAA tournament. But one Hurricanes team flew under the radar and brought a national title back to Coral Gables. The men’s club volleyball team won the 2013 National Collegiate Volleyball Federation championship in Dallas last weekend, after beating North Carolina State in the Division 1-AA gold bracket.
Coach Dan Marinberg’s team was slotted in that bracket along with the toughest competition. Despite a first-round struggle against Texas, Miami defeated the Longhorns 28-26, 20-25, 1512. It was the Canes’ only match that reached a decisive third set. After dismissing Texas, Miami took down Colorado State and Boston College. Those three victories set up a championship match against N.C. State. The Canes found motivation in the fact that Miami came away with wins over the Wolfpack this past year in football, and twice in basketball. The streak of dominance over the Wolfpack continued in the volleyball finals: The Hurricanes pulled out a tight first set 2725 before securing the crown with
a routine 25-15 second set. “Going to Dallas and winning the national tournament was something very special to me and our program,” said team captain Pedro Schneider, who was named tournament MVP. “It’s nice to see where the program was when I first got here and where it is today. There’s nothing better than sharing that moment with your close friends and teammates.” Brett Hollenbach, a junior middle hitter and blocker, called the experience incredible. “It’s my third time going to nationals, and we had really high hopes for this year,” Hollenbach said. “My freshman year we came in 16th, sophomore year we were fifth, and that was good, but we needed to improve. This year
we worked our butts off in regional tournaments and we made it to Dallas. Just playing in the tournament in this big stadium – and finally winning – it was just the most amazing experience.” With the Hurricanes losing only two seniors after this season, the team’s future looks bright. “Expectations for next year are high,” Hollenbach said. “Definitely [going to] be a strong contender to repeat next year with our core coming back and a strong set of reserves ready to come up and fill the positions we’re losing.” The triumph last weekend at the Dallas Convention Center left Hollenbach satisfied for now, but next season is a different story. “It’s going to be my senior year, and I’m not going to allow a letdown on my watch,” he said.
PHOTO BRIEF
Women’s tennis brings double the heat
SPORTS BRIEFS BASEBALL Miami went on the road to College Park this weekend and took two of three games from the Maryland Terrapins. Chris Diaz turned in a solid outing on the mound Friday night, but it took the Hurricanes 13 innings to secure a 1-0 win. Freshman Brandon Lopez knocked in the winning run with a two-out single in the top of the last frame. Eric Nedeljkovic entered as Miami’s fourth relief pitcher, and his scoreless work to close the game earned the senior his seventh save this season. On Saturday at Shipley Field, David Thompson anchored the Miami lineup with timely hits in a 5-3 win. Thompson - who crosses home plate for the only run in the series opener launched a home run and a two-run double during his three-RBI performance. The Hurricanes used another quality start from Bryan Radziewski (six innings, two earned runs) to clinch the series over the Terps. However, Maryland (19-17, 5-13 ACC) prevented a sweep with its 7-2 win over Miami (24-15, 8-10 ACC) on Sunday.
WOMEN’S TENNIS The women’s tennis team rode a long winning streak into Friday’s matchup with No. 1 North Carolina, but the Tar Heels were too much for No. 10 Miami to handle. Carolina grabbed the doubles point after Kelsey Laurente and Melissa Bolivar lost a 9-8 thriller. The Canes’ third tandem had several match points during the two-hour set. Bolivar took the first singles point with her 6-2, 6-2 win over Tessa Lyons, but the top-ranked Tar Heels did not surrender another singles match. Miami rebounded quickly, though, rounding back into form with a shutout of No. 9 Duke on Sunday afternoon. Clementina Riobueno engineered the best singles performance of the day. She took a 6-4, 4-3 lead on Duke’s Marianne Jodoin before the Canes clinched the win and the match went unfinished. Jodoin had won 21 straight.
HOLLY BENSUR // STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER DOUBLE TROUBLE: Freshman Clementia Riobueno and sophomore Monique Albuquerque take on Duke in the doubles match on Friday’s game. Miami won 4-0. Riobueno broke Duke’s Marianne Jodoin’s 21-match winning streak.

Dear V: Will I ever find my Tom Hanks?...
, I want my life to be a romantic comedy. I want to find love on top of the Empire State Building or through the magic of inexplicable circumstances. Is this so hard to ask? Why can’t my life be a rom-com? Meg Ryan Save Me Meg Ryan Stalker, I myself also envy the romantic comedy lifestyle. Logic doesn’t apply, and moonlight causes magic to happen. The magic of finding your soul mate on the Empire State Building or having breakfast by Tiffany’s
would make the best man’s speech at your wedding memorable and worthy of a TLC episode. But unfortunately, romantic comedies are written with the intention that they’re not real. They are meant to inspire people to search for love, but they have such unrealistic expectations that one can get caught up in a storm of Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Confusing the exaggeration of a comedy with the passions of a romantic tale causes audiences to believe that they can find happiness that way. I recommend watching films that mimic the same effects of the romantic comedy but are in tune with reality. “Juno” was definitely a transition because Michael Cera and the lovable Ellen Page learn that having a child brings people together more than any New York landmark. And “500 Days of Summer” teaches us that love can be temporary and happily ever after is not always the fairy-tale forever.
But maybe this suggestion will get the rom-com funk out of your system. Try to live out a romantic comedy. Set up a time and date with film students and write your own rendition. You might find that during the process, your on-screen DiCaprio or Depp might be the next eligible groom at your “27 Dresses” wedding. This filming will also help you realize that behind every rom-com, there is a writer, director and camera crew that amps the facade of that first kiss that totally ruins girls’ expectations of guys. There are guys who are romantics, but they are not as fueled by the film industry. But I admire your way of living in this Meg RyanTom Hanks world because few are willing to admit that life can just be a little bit more comedic, less logical and magically eventful. V
