Freshman must wait to get ‘fratty’

Rally held to support John Wiley Price

By SARAH KRAMER Managing Editor skramer@smu.edu

Interfraternity Council (IFC) established a new rule that forbids freshmen males from attending any registered bus parties or events registered with the school for the first five weeks of school. The rule goes into effect Aug. 22 and will last until Sept. 30. “During this period, fraternities usually only throw one to maybe two bus parties, so it really shouldn’t be too drastic of a social culture change,” Max Sutro, the vice president of programming and public relations for IFC, said. According to IFC President Brian Rose, recruitment numbers have been low for the past few years. However, with this new rule in place, IFC executive board members believe recruitment rates will go up. “I do believe that this will make more freshman eligible to rush, given that there will hopefully be a lesser number of alcohol violations given as a result of fewer bus parties attended by freshman guys,” Sutro said. “Hopefully this rule will allow the new freshman to be cognizant of the consequences of what alcohol violations can do to your rush eligibility.” Each fraternity has to notify IFC a week before a registered event in order to get the exact number of wristbands as active members. All women, including freshmen, are allowed to attend these events. Each fraternity can also order additional wristbands for other males, but no freshman can receive one. Rose believes that this rule will help ease freshmen men into the

IFC established a new rule that prohibits freshmen males from attending any registered event for the first five weeks of school. The rule goes into effect Aug. 22 and ends Sept. 30.

college environment as well as “decrease bad habits.” “It’s not a perfect end all solution, but hopefully it’s the start of something bigger and better,” Rose said. IFC has been working to institute this rule, however, this is the first semester that it will be in effect. “This is a stepping stone to something bigger in the next few years,” Rose said. Freshmen males can still attend house parties, philanthropy events and dinners. “I do believe that freshman guys going to hang out at the fraternity houses is one of the best ways to meet the older guys and see what their house is all about,” Sutro said. While IFC believes recruitment numbers will increase, they also think each fraternity will save money.

“It’s less of a financial obligation for frats, ” Rose said. “There will be less lavish events and we can use the money for bettering [fraternity] houses.” With second semester recruitment, some IFC members believe the most recent pledge class has not had time to hangout with men in their own fraternity before beginning the recruiting process. “This gives guys in the house a time to establish themselves,” Rose said. Rose said there has been lots of positive feedback and support from the administration, students and advisors. However, many freshmen —male and female—are unaware of this change. Freshman Stephen Hernandez thinks it’s a “bummer” he can’t attend bus parties for the first five weeks.

“The first five weeks is a long time but I’m excited for once the five weeks are over,” he said. This is the response IFC is hoping for. “After September there will be a rush of kids,” Rose said. “The suspense builds up from the freshman guys so there will be a big splurge after five weeks.” Other freshman like Stephen Kelly are indifferent to the new rule. “There are plenty of other people to meet,” he said. “It gives us time to explore other people before Greek life starts.” For freshman Miranda Hanson, the rule does not affect her at all. “I just feel bad for the guys,” she said. Though IFC executive board members admit the rule is not perfect, they “wanted to get the ball rolling,” according to Rose.

The Dallas Chapter of the National Black United Front (NBUF) held a rally at the PanAfrican Connection Bookstore near Fair Park on Saturday to both offer support for embattled Dallas politician John Wiley Price and to call attention to “the history of attacks by the FBI used to keep black people down.” “This [rally] happened as a result of the COINTELPRO [Counter Intelligence Program] attacks on John Wiley Price,” Thomas Muhammad, organizer of the event and president of NBUF Dallas, said. COINTELPRO was a series of covert and typically illegal operations used by the federal government between 1956 and 1971 to infiltrate political groups thought to be “subversive” -including groups associated with the black civil rights movement. Muhammad believes they are still operating today to remove “charismatic black leaders who are doing good things in the community.” John Wiley Price, who was the first black official elected to the Commissioners Court in Dallas, has served as a commissioner since 1985. Price has come under media scrutiny several times during his career for perceived odd behavior and suspected wrongdoing. Last month, the FBI raided the homes and offices of the

With temperatures in the triple digits, students should be prepared to sweat on their way to class. And this heat wave doesn’t look like it is going to be letting up any time soon. The National Weather Service has predicted temperatures over 100 degrees for at least the next week. Currently the SMU area is not under drought conditions, but the Park Cities have placed a ban on all daytime automatic sprinkler use in an effort to conserve water. The sustainability effort on campus is also working toward the goal of water conservation. According to their website, campus restrooms and labs are being checked regularly to watch for leaks. Rainwater and condensation recovery are also a big part of their plan. SMU Landscaping is doing its part as well. The campus grounds crew has worked all through the tripledegree heat summer to keep SMU looking beautiful. Supplemental watering done on

the campus lawn uses portable water tanks filled with reclaimed water and plants have been replaced with more drought tolerant varieties. “We have a limited amount of resources, especially time, so when it gets really bad we have to determine where those resources are used,” SMU Landscape Resource Manager Kevin Dilliard said. “We may have to pull some annual plants for a period of time till the conditions improve. But since the expectation of the appearance of the campus is high, we do everything possible to not let beds stay empty too long.” The landscaping team is also trying out a new method called xeriscaping. “Xeriscaping is planting the right plant in the right place keeping in mind that this type of drought condition can occur anytime and drought tolerant plants need to be at the top of your plant list,” Dilliard said. “Because all of our new buildings follow LEED standards, the plants surrounding them must be low water use plants which prepare us for the drought. This does not mean no color and no interest and no water; it just means making good choices and using proper care to help the plants survive during these times.”

commissioner and his long-time assistant. Price has denied any wrongdoing, and no charges have yet been filed. Muhammad said the attacks on Prices come “from a long string of attacks on people like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Malcom X and Sojourner Truth. I mean you name it. People who have been very active come under attacks from the U.S. government.” Southern Dallas, the area Price represents, has united behind him. Several locations, including St. Luke’s United Methodist Church downtown, are taking donations for his legal fund, and rallies have been held regularly since the FBI raids. The rally did not draw a large crowd – which organizers attributed to the 107 degree heat– but New York City Councilman Charles Barron, a speaker at the event, was not disappointed. “Jesus took 12 and changed the world. We can take this number and change Dallas,” Barron said, atop a stage decorated with pictures of Martin Luther King, Queen Nzinga of Angola and Marcus M. Garvey. Barron introduced Carolyn Davis, a Dallas City Councilwoman representing part of Southern Dallas,

who defended Price. “I’m here to support Our Man Downtown,” Davis said. “John has been there for each and every one of us.” Houston City Councilwoman Jolanda Jones, who has recently been accused of using city resources to fund her private law practice and not cooperating with investigators, also spoke in support of Price at the event. “They are coming after all of us,” she said to the crowd. “When I heard about what’s going on with John Wiley Price…I said I wouldn’t miss it.” She said Price’s investigation, like her own, was a “selected attack” on black officials. “We get scrutinized,” she said. “I believe that justice should be fair. It’s 2011, you think we would be farther along.” Akwete Tyehimba, who owns Pan-African Connection with her husband Bandele, said that while Price may have done things that were unethical, the community “does not like the idea of outside forces attacking.” “We will hold [Price] accountable,” she said. “He knows that he owes this community, and he’ll have to come forward.”

Bandele Tyehimba said the political system was partially at fault for Price’s predicament. “I will say this: The system is a corrupt system, and if you are going to be involved in it you are going to be corrupt,” he said. Neither Akwete or Bandele Tyehimba would elaborate on any charges they thought Price might be legally guilty of. Muhammed said Price had broken no laws, but had instead been using “loopholes.” “All of it’s legal. I mean they’re loopholes, but hell, people in the U.S. government, particularly white people, have been using loopholes for decades and centuries to get resources,” he said. “When people of color start doing the same things, now there is a problem … As a result, Commissioner Price becomes a threat. So who comes after him? The political arm of the U.S. government: the FBI.” Despite Price’s use of “loopholes,” Muhammad said he was one of the best politicians to represent the black community and Southern Dallas. “He could just go home every day and do nothing,” he said. “Instead he chooses to work in the streets on the streets also representing his people.”

Members of the incoming SMU class of 2015 reflect on the upcoming year at the traditional candle light ceremony at Mustang Corral Saturday evening.

First-years reflect on Corral By KIAN HERVEY Contributing Writer khervey@smu.edu

SMU’s centennial class returned from an overnight trip Saturday, where they got a taste of the spirit, traditions and academic life of SMU. Mustang Corral allows first-years to get to know faculty, staff and student leaders in a different setting.

“At first I was slow to warm up to it, but once we got started doing the activities, like square dancing [and] meeting people, I got into it,” Andrew Hattersley said. Many students enjoyed making new friends. “I definitely had a good time making new friends [and] talking to people I probably would have never spoken to or [even] met,” Alaxandria

Foreman said. Corral contained several presentations, including a diversity session and professor visits. Professors also gave brief lectures from their coursework and experience to gear up students for Monday classes. An emotional and sentimental candlelight ceremony marked the last night of Corral and beginning of students journey back to SMU.

Many students appreciated their venture beyond the Dallas metropolis and are excited to start their social and academic career on the Hilltop. “After Corral, I feel SMU is a very diverse community of talented individuals and full of well organized programs,” Peter Kaminsky said. “I’m glad I went.”

BACK TO SCHOOL

Students respond to textbook expenses By PATRICIA BOH

Associate News Editor pboh@smu.edu

Like it or not, going to college is expensive. Tuition, meal plans, housing costs and student loans are often required in order to earn a college degree. However, many students find paying for college difficult but worth the investment. Textbook expenses seen to be a different story. Some students say the SMU bookstore is the easiest way to purchase textbooks because individual textbook lists are generated through each student’s Access account. Junior Moses Williams said he continues to utilize the bookstore because of “the convenience of

getting books at the last minute.” Others say that while convenient, bookstore prices can be more expensive than those of online sellers. Also, the bookstore cannot guarantee that every book sold can be bought back. “I bought my books at the SMU bookstore the first semester and I learned my lesson. $800+ on textbooks for one semester should be a crime,” Sophomore Sarahi Garcia said. “I buy them online now, [which is] still expensive, but I think it’s the best alternative.” Amazon and eBay’s Half.com are popular alternatives to ordering directly from the bookstore. Many find this option saves more financially but requires more effort and research. “I always buy and sell my

books on Half.com. It definitely takes more effort and research than going to the SMU Bookstore, but it’s a lot cheaper,” sophomore Paige Witthar said. “I’ve saved about $230 so far on books for this semester. Last semester, I saved almost exactly 50 percent by buying my books online.” Junior Savannah Niles expressed a similar tactic as Witthar. “I purchase books for supercheap on eBay or Amazon, making sure they’re the exact version the book store is selling.” Although some students find purchasing textbooks online more profitable, others find navigating the business of online textbook sales to be confusing. Senior International Studies

major Lindsey Prowse found it difficult to tell how Amazon prices compared to bookstore prices without research. Some found the prices are not always remarkably cheaper online. Sophomore Colleen Russo purchased some of her books used on Amazon, and “was surprised to find that the used price on Amazon was not that different from SMU’s used price.” With multiple ways to buy, sell and compare textbook prices, students can be overwhelmed with both the expense and the effort. Whether they use the bookstore or an online seller, students must evaluate how much they are willing to spend versus how much effort and research they are willing

Tax-free weekend perfect for back to school shopping By PATRICIA BOH

Associate News Editor pboh@smu.edu

Texan shoppers celebrated the state’s annual sales tax holiday. During the weekend of Aug. 19, most garments, household items and school supplies were exempt from state and local taxes. For many students, the taxfree weekend was perfectly timed for last minute back to school shopping. Sophomore Mai Bedair was not initially aware of the tax exemptions.

“I went shopping because it was the last weekend I could go before school,” Bedair said. “I realized it was tax-free weekend when I got all these amazing deals.” Alice McCall, sophomore, was also pleasantly surprised this weekend. “I just went for a phone, I didn’t know it was tax free until I got to the mall,” she said. Those Mustangs who didn’t know about this weekend’s savings will have to wait until next year to take advantage of the tax-free holiday.

MEN’S SOCCER

Mustangs take on Tigers in Dallas heat By ERICA PENUNURI Associate Sports Editor epenunuri@smu.edu

SMU men’s soccer team tied the Memphis Tigers 1-1 in their final exhibition game. On a scorching 100-degree day at Wescott Field, the boys managed to battle the heat and stay in the game. The Mustangs were slow out of the gates at the beginning of the first period. Instead of holding a typical two-halved game, the officials decided to break the game into three periods due to the unbearable heat. Possession wavered back and forth between the Mustangs and Tigers. Shots on goal were scarce in the first period. There was a total of three shots in the first period made by the Tigers, and four made by the Mustangs. It wasn’t until the second period the ball saw the back of the net. Tigers’ Lewis Ellis caught a loose ball in the box and sliced through SMU’s defense and scored. His shot lifted

the Tigers 1-0 above the Mustangs. The field wasn’t the only thing heated up by the second period as tempers flared and the officials made arguable calls. “Some calls were a little more [in favor] of the other team, but at the end of the day you can’t blame the ref for everything that happens on the field,” SMU defender Diogo de Almelda said. SMU gained possession back during the second period. Passes were connected and the ball movement was pushed forward. SMU forward Juan Castillo received the ball at the top of the box, spun around, and sent the ball hurling into the net putting the Mustangs neck at neck with the Tigers, 1-1. “I think everyone was a little down because it was so hot and it took a little bit for everyone to get going, then we got scored on and then everybody wanted to check in,” SMU midfielder T.J. Nelson said. The third period advanced leaving

both teams to battle the heat one final time. In the third period players started off sluggish and more fouls were called. This round the Tigers had two shots on goal while the Mustangs had four. “We need to work on coming out strong instead of getting scored on, then coming out strong. Next game we will come out with more energy,” Nelson said. The final exhibition game ended in a draw, 1-1, leaving the Mustangs unsatisfied and ready for a victory in the season-opener. “Here at SMU, we always want to win every game, no matter if it’s an official game or a preseason game. I’m definitely not satisfied with the result,” Almelda said. SMU opens their season this Saturday at 7 p.m. on Wescott Field against NCAA No. 13 William and Mary. Season tickets are now on sale for $24. Tickets can be purchased online at smumustangs.com

A trip to the Conference USA semifinals last season gave the SMU women’s soccer team confidence heading into 2011. On Friday night, the Mustangs opened up the regular season against Arkansas, but things did not go exactly as planned. In a matter of five minutes, the Razorbacks scored two goals and held off a second half SMU rally to take the opener 2-1. Mustangs Head Coach Brent Erwin felt his squad played great soccer for 85 minutes but some unfortunate situations in the middle of the first half led to the heartbreaking defeat.

Through the first 17 minutes, SMU controlled the game and had numerous chances of scoring with four shots on goal. However, in the 18th minute Arkansas’ Beth Straton miraculously buried the ball in the back of the net from 35 yards out. The ball sailed just above SMU goalkeeper Courtney Webb’s fingertips and stayed just under the cross to give Arkansas a shocking 1-0 lead. Unfortunately for the Mustangs, the Razorbacks weren’t done just yet. In the 23rd minute Kelly Anders scored an easy goal after a perfect cross from Jeri Ann Okoro to give Arkansas a commanding

2-0 lead. Overcoming the two goal deficit would prove to be too much for SMU. The Mustangs closed the gap in the 66th when freshmen Rikki Clarke scored her first career goal and cut the lead in half after a shot by Mallory Baum bounced off the crossbar. But the Mustangs were never able to find the equalizer despite outshooting the Razorbacks 12-5 in the second half and holding a nine shot advantage through 90 minutes of action. SMU will begin their home slate against Stephen F. Austin on Monday at 7 p.m.

Election season is fast approaching again, and it seems like you can’t turn on the news today without hearing something about Brandon Bub the upcoming Republican primaries for the presidential nomination. Just around a week and a half ago Michele Bachmann won the Ames Straw Poll in Iowa, and shortly thereafter our own governor Rick Perry formally announced his bid. It seems like this election has more frontrunners than you can wave a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag at. The media is having a field day going on about candidates like Perry, Bachmann, and Romney, and some pundits still hope others like Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan or New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will join the fray. But wait, aren’t we forgetting someone else who’s already in the race? Someone who trailed Michele Bachmann by OPINION

only a single percentage point in the Ames Straw Poll? Oh yeah, it’s Ron Paul! But you probably wouldn’t know that if you were only following this race through the lens of the mainstream media. As Jon Stewart recently pointed out, many newscasters treat Paul’s name like “the 13th floor in a hotel.” His performance in the Ames straw went largely unreported by major media outlets. When CNN was offering live coverage from the poll, an anchor told the correspondent how nice it would be if he could get some video of Sarah Palin at the event, but he could “hold the Ron Paul stuff.” Rush Limbaugh even went so far as to say that Paul “is going to destroy this party” and called his campaign “nuts on parade.” I for one don’t understand why Paul’s campaign has become so anathema to both the media and the Republican establishment. Frontrunners like Bachmann and Perry constantly go on about cutting the size of government, lowering taxes, and implementing other fundamental Tea Party ideas,

but Ron Paul has been espousing these same ideas since before the Tea Party even existed. Moreover, he’s one of few members of Congress to offer actual solutions to our country’s budget problems like bringing an end to our various wars abroad and drastically cutting our defense budget, which accounts for 20 percent of all government spending. Unlike other candidates running for president, Ron Paul is a true libertarian calling for an end to the War on Drugs, corporate welfare, and bloated defense spending. Moreover, Paul receives an overwhelming majority of his campaign contributions from individuals and not Political Action Committees. He’s a consistent candidate who sticks to his principles and doesn’t sell his soul to special interests. I certainly don’t agree with every policy that Ron Paul puts forward. For instance, a few years ago he wrote a book called End the Fed that advocated the abolition of the Federal Reserve. He’s also made it a goal to eliminate various

parts of the executive branch like the Department of Education. However, he has repeatedly shown that he is a practical politician willing to compromise. Senators and Members of Congress for years now have talked about implementing “commonsense” solutions to our nation’s problems, but sometimes it seems like Paul is the only one with the political fortitude to put such ideas forward. The earliest primary elections are still months away, and the political momentum surrounding each potential Republican candidate certainly still has time to change. It would be nice if the media could catch on soon and finally start giving Paul the attention he deserves. After all, one of the other top GOP contenders has espoused seceding from the US and the other has accused homosexuals of living in “spiritual bondage.” Come on America, I think we can do better.

EDITORIAL

Newsroom merger brings new goals, collaboration It’s the start of a new semester and this fall is bringing a lot of changes for everyone. For freshmen it’s the beginning of your college career, an exciting new chapter in your life. For seniors it’s the beginning of a bittersweet last year, full of memories and friends. Here at The Daily Campus we are also embarking on something new. As some of you may know, for the last three years, SMU has been home to three different news organizations: The Daily Campus, The Daily Mustang and SMU-TV. However, this fall the three entities have merged together to bring true convergence journalism to SMU. Collaboration is key as we make this transition to a round-theclock convergence newsroom. We see this convergence newsroom as an amazing opportunity to produce innovative, professional news that will be a model for successful university media in the future. You will see a lot of increased multimedia content this year as we strive to incorporate videos and other mediums into each story. We are excited to bring you more than just words this year! Be sure to regularly check our redesigned website, smudailycampus.com, for the most up-to-date information. We also have a team of bloggers coordinating with The Daily Campus staff. Politically Inclined is a must-read for all avid politicos; Hilltop Politics is the place to be for all things Student Senate; SMU Style is continuing to make sure the Mustangs look good. Two new blogs will make an appearance this year, a Health & Fitness blog and a new Food blog. Smudailycampus.com is also the new home of The Daily Update, a television news show put together by SMU journalism students. The Daily Campus news section will continue to bring you the best news from the around the Hilltop. This year the section will also feature articles from “Beyond the Bubble,” a class blog that focuses on events and people in the greater Dallas area. Our sports section will focus on all aspects of game coverage, the pre, during and post game. Arts &Entertainment will shift some of it’s focus to the Meadows School of the Arts, along with a healthy dosage of movies, theater, music and food reviews. The opinion page will continue to represent the views of the SMU student population and The Daily Campus highly encourages all students to use this section to voice their opinions and passions. The new and improved Daily Campus is dedicated to providing our campus with the most up-to-date information, as well as providing some entertainment. We want to be your go-to source for all things SMU.

Studying, sleep key to success Whether it be an incoming freshman or a returning senior, along with new bedsheets and shower caddy a student never fails to pack Scarlet Gray an extremely optimistic set of goals to a new semester. Whether it be stocking up on bulletin boards and day planners, or scavenging the productivity applications for smart phones, these hopes of staying organized and practicing effective time management are higher than ever with the clean slate of new classes. As the semester begins, these overly ambitious expectations begin to fall by the way quickly. CONTRIBUTOR

Discouraged, students can begin to adopt poor time management habits. This can include the denial that sleep is a necessary function, putting off assignments until the very last moment, and adopting a schedule that a student cannot possibly maintain. Soon, how much procrastination and how little work students can do while still keeping their heads above water become bragging rights. Being able to claim the same grade from writing a paper in one night as a student that revised for weeks may seem to come at a small price. However, the cost of forsaking a healthy sleep schedule can prove fatal to a busy week, especially if you’re drifting to sleep during your lectures the next day. This diminishing sleep schedule can quickly perpetuate throughout

a semester if not kept in check and can become a very difficult habit to break. Being sleep deprived can not only makes attending lectures difficult, but can lead to memory problems and increased difficulty in logical reasoning. But late night studying is bound to happen to even the most prepared student and these sessions are almost unavoidable. If last minute cramming becomes the primary method of study for a student, grades and health (not to mention sanity) can be affected severely. A USAToday article which studied sleep deprivation in college found that “if you use all-nighters, your GPA is slightly lower on average.” This kind of sleepless lifestyle also leads to a diet laden with coffee and energy drinks which can also impair cognitive function along with your

waistline. I spent the vast majority of my freshman year at SMU living this kind of lifestyle and the negative effects along with the stress are not worth putting off any particular assignment. Small, and slowly made changes are more likely to form habits that a student will stick to throughout the year. It will be a constant struggle in a time where college seems to be a 24/7 job and as I type the last few sentences of this article minutes before the deadline, these changes do not come easily.

Student warns to wear your helmet OPINION

July 17 started off no different than any other summer day. I woke up at 8 a.m., got ready for work, and made myself Katrina Leshan some breakfast. I made sure I had my calendar, laptop, and lunch in my backpack. That morning, my plan was ride my bike to teach guitar lessons at my first job, and then head back to SMU to work at my other job in Meadows School of the Arts. The final part of my process to leave the house was to strap on my extremely unattractive and tacky helmet. The reason I felt so lame in the helmet was because even though I had purchased it almost a year prior, I hadn’t started wearing the helmet until that very week. There was no particular force that inspired me to wear my helmet after all that time of letting it gather dust; I had seen it laying around and decided to make good use of it. Little did

I know, that day my helmet would save my life. I put my helmet on, grabbed my bike and realized I had left my sunglasses inside. I was in a bit of a hurry, so I decided against wasting time grabbing the sunglasses, and started on my way. My usual route was to take SMU Boulevard to cross the 75 and get to Dyer Street, where the studio I teach at is located. But since SMU Boulevard was closed for the summer, I had to take the Mockingbird crossover. I had taken this route every day and never had an issue. As I made my way across the pedestrian crosswalk over the access road, I made sure that the driver who had stopped in the only lane that exists there saw me. He did, so I began to cross. Then, a bicyclist’s worst nightmare: a truck driver, paying no attention to the law or the fact that he was creating a lane where a lane did not exist, whipped around the car who stopped to let me cross. I had one split second before I was thrown off my bike to realize what

was happening. When I saw myself flying toward his back left tire, I closed my eyes. I remember no sounds. I don’t remember how I landed. I don’t know where my precious bike ended up in the street. I remember nothing but opening my eyes, being on my back, and thinking, ‘Where are my glasses? Where are my glasses?’ I reached out to the street around me, panicking, and realized, ‘I didn’t wear my glasses today.’ These simple thoughts were all I could process. (Side note: if I had worn my sunglasses that day, I’d still be picking glass out of my face.) Then I realized cars were honking at me. Cars were honking at me to get out of the road. I got up and felt my body start to wake up. My wrists hurt. My elbows hurt. My shoulder felt slightly burned. And my face felt very strange. The summary of the accident was this: the truck driver wasn’t paying attention to where he was going. He hit my bike, and I flew off of my bike and was propelled onto the ground. My head probably hit his tire before it hit the asphalt, and

I had a concussion. I sprained both of my wrists. I had road rash on my face, elbows, shoulder and legs. My face became so swollen that later at the emergency room I had to have multiple CT scans to make sure my brain wasn’t swollen and I didn’t fracture any facial bones. The swelling behind my left eye made that eye unable to focus The amazing thing about this day is that my even though my head was the first thing to hit the ground, I walked away with no permanent damage. My helmet caught the majority of the blow and it saved my life. I’m writing this article for The Daily Campus in hope that anyone who reads it realizes that although helmets are tacky, they do exactly what they are designed to do. No matter how safe of a driver you may be on your bike, the people around you aren’t used to looking out for cyclists. Protect yourself. Drive defensively. Wear a helmet.

Dallas Restaurant Despite sweltering heat the Nasher Sculpture Week comes to a culinary conclusion Center still stays cool By BRIDGET BENNETT News Director brekow@smu.edu

As Preschool Teacher Eva McKee stepped out of her car into the heat of the Dallas Museum of Art’s basement parking garage, she questioned her decision to attend an outdoor event. However, when McKee walked into the garden at the Nasher Sculpture Center, she was handed a personal mister and directed down a fan-lined path to a snow cone stand. That, combined with the shade of the garden’s trees, McKee said it did not feel like she was outside in 107-degree weather. Friday’s “Til Midnight at the Nasher,” sponsored by Reliant

Energy, began with a concert by the Roof Raisers. The band is a premiere party and reception band in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area. On Friday they played a variety of today’s best hits and some hits from the past. Sabrina Skeldon, a member of the audience, thought they were a perfect band for dancing. “I love how they come down into audience to play,” Skeldon said. From lead singers, to saxophone players, different members of the band played on the dance floor, creating a fun, interactive atmosphere for guests, Skeldon said. But the attendees on the dance

floor most frequently were those who have yet to finish grade school. Among the couples and groups of adults dancing, children spun around the dance floor all evening while parents took pictures and videos from the sidelines. One-year-old Ella Cummings, didn’t make it to the dance floor; she bobbed to the beat of the music while eating goldfish on her family’s picnic blanket. Her mother, SMU-Alumnae Elizabeth Cummings, said “Til Midnight at the Nasher” is a great family-oriented event. “Even in August, it is a family event in Dallas,” she said. Following the concert, the film “Up” was shown on a large inflatable screen in the garden where couches and bean bags were available for attendees to sit on. Picnic baskets and beverages were also available for purchase throughout the garden. Inside, the line for the interactive exhibit “Sightings” by Martin Creed, wound around the musical staircase. The interactive art installation featured a glass room full of 9,000 gold balloons. Attendees had the chance to “swim” through the room of balloons playing hide and seek and pose for picture in the sea of gold. Inside the exhibit, many attendees wrote encouraging messages on the balloons. Balloons were written on with the words “You are bold and beautiful” to “Will you marry me.” The exhibit ended Sunday. “Til Midnight at the Nasher” is held on the third Friday of the month. The next event will be held on Friday, September 16; Live80 will begin with a concert at 7 p.m., with the movie “Footloose” following at 9 p.m.
