SMU ranked third most selective Texas university TOLU SALAKO Contributing Writer tsalako@smu.edu Southern Methodist University was recently ranked the third hardest Texas university to get into by Nice.com Inc., just behind Rice University and the University of Texas at Austin. SMU now has another ranking to add to its list of recognitions. Forbes ranked SMU the 14th most entrepreneurial university; U.S News & World Report ranked SMU the 58th best U.S. national university; and the Princeton Review ranked SMU the second most beautiful campus in the country, With an acceptance rate of 50.7 percent and a SAT/ACT 25th percentile score of 1760/27 and 75th percentile score at 2050/31 respectively, it is safe to say that SMU admissions has become even more selective in accepting students into the Mustang family. With SMU’s impressive student-faculty ratio, traditions and prestige, high-schoolers have become more and more interested in
applying to SMU. With a well-known business school and unique engineering opportunities, SMU is typically more selective with what students they accept in to these programs. For example. students interested in the Cox School of Business must complete the business school subset courses with a cumulative subset course GPA of 3.30 before being admitted. SMU first-year and member of the BBA Direct program Kara Hallam applied to a variety of different schools around the country, but chose SMU to call home. “I heard about the success of students that graduated from [the Cox School of Business] and that made me really want to come here,” Hallam said. Attracted to the success rate of students in the business school, she knew she had to have competitive scores in order to be accepted and follow the path of some of the school’s notable alumni. “I am really excited to be here,” Hallam said. “There are so many opportunities that SMU provides and I know it’s going to be an amazing four years.”

SMU ranks third most selective after Rice University and the University of Texas at Austin.
What really draws applicants to SMU are its academics, reputation and the firstyear retention rate. “When I was looking for colleges after taking my PSAT, I noticed that SMU had one of the highest retention rates compared to other Texas schools,” SMU sophomore Jayson Nasukiewicz-Kaufman said. “Having this, plus a well-renowned business school and a beautiful campus, I am not surprised that SMU has become even more selective in admitting students.” With over 100 majors and 75 minors, SMU makes it possible for students to find an
area of study they can enjoy and pursue. Sophomore creative writing major Chloe Morris from small-town McCroy, Ark., took this into consideration when applying to the university. “I heard about SMU because I knew one of the poetry professors and he suggested that I should apply, and I am very happy that I did,” Morris said. “And with downtown being only minutes away and the facultystudent ratio being quite smaller than other Texas universities, I knew SMU would be a place where I could enjoy my time here and succeed in a great environment.”

SMU first-years ‘Discover Dallas’
WHY RENT WHEN YOU CAN OWN?
LAUREN AGUIRRE Assignments Desk Editor lcaguirre@smu.edu While many students would rather spend the week before classes sleeping in, SMU’s newest class was up bright and early 8 a.m. Aug. 20. First-years lined up around the Boulevard to board buses for a brand new Mustang Corral program: Discover Dallas. Students participated in 26 different trips in and around Dallas. These faculty-led bus tours included visiting the Paul Quinn College neighborhood farm, ice skating at Dallas Stars Center and exploring the Mexican-American culture of Dallas. Corral Leader, sophomore Jake Carlson, said he was excited about the changes in Mustang Corral’s program. “This is better than spending all three
days at Corral,” Carlson said. “This also makes use of the Dallas area.” Carlson added that one of the reasons he came to SMU is all of the activities available off-campus in the city. First-year Tolu Olawale agreed with Carlson’s sentiments. “I’ve lived here [in Dallas] for awhile, but I never got to see downtown,” Olawale said after touring the Wyly Theatre. “It’s nice to get to see everything.” To Olawale, the only thing that detracted from the experience was the long day. “The only thing I’d change is maybe how early we had to get up,” she said. “Everyone’s really tired right now,” Corral Leader, senior Charles Weber said, “but we can pump them up for the rest of the day.”

NOAH BARTOS Opinion Editor nbartos@smu.edu All current students at SMU, including the incoming class, will receive exemptions to the University Curriculum (UC) previously granted to other students, making it easier to graduate on time. According to a campus-wide email sent Monday morning by Peter Moore, associate dean of general education, the exemptions will allow students to complete three level-two pillars instead of the previously required five. Additionally, students are now only required to complete six of the UC’s 10 proficiencies
and experiences. However, a second language and one writing and oral communication proficiency must be completed. The UC, originally implemented in 2010, has undergone several changes in the past few years. With numerous requirements and the constantlychanging designation of classes, it has been difficult for some students to understand and complete the University Curriculum. Due to the confusion with the UC, exemptions were granted last year to make the completion process easier. More changes may be coming. Moore’s email also stated that academic officials “will implement the necessary structural changes” in the coming year.

Etter is an “internationally recognized leader in science and technology and engineering education.” She worked for the U.S. Naval Academy, led large projects at the Pentagon, and was one of the few subcabinet appointees for both the Bush and Clinton administrations. As for her academic and engineering research, Etter has held such positions as ONR Distinguished Chair in Science and Technology at the United States Naval Academy, and professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder and the University of New Mexico. Etter has received much praise from her peers and co-workers.
Lyle School dean Marc Christensen also commented on Etter’s achievement. “Prof. Etter is extremely deserving of this prestigious award,” said Christensen. “During her seven years leading the Caruth Institute, she continually focused on ways to increase the number and diversity of students who graduate from U.S. high schools with both the enthusiasm and knowledge to pursue careers in STEM education.” The Lyle School of Engineering is celebrating its 10th year as an engineering school where women make up more than 30 percent of incoming undergraduate students. Nationally, enrollment of women in engineering schools averages just under 20 percent. Etter currently works at SMU as the Caruth Professor of Engineering Education, a distinguished fellow in the Darwin Deason Institute for Cyber Security, and professor of electrical engineering in the Lyle School.

Students threw over 5,000 snowballs at each other during the One28 Snowball Fight.
‘There’s snow place like SMU’ Students participate in One28 Snowball Fight CHRISTINA COX Editor-in-Chief clcox@smu.edu More than 300 students gathered on Dallas Hall Lawn Tuesday night to participate in One28’s annual Snowball Fight. The fight began at 8 p.m. with more than 5,000 snowballs from Bahama Bucks, a shaved ice company in North Dallas. “This our fifth snowball fight,” said Jim Barnett, campus minister at Preston Road Church of Christ, who partners with Watermark Church for
the event. “It’s definitely a fun thing to do when it’s 95-degrees outside, especially for those kids from California.” Junior Tara Kezic, a native Californian, loved participating in the event for the first time. “My friends told me about the event in my dorm,” Kezic said. “It’s really fun to try to hit other people with the snowballs.” Other students, like senior Alex Hibbard, has participated in the event for years. “This is my fourth and
final year at the snowball fight,” Hibbard said. “This is something that One28 does an awesome job putting on.” The event is organized by Adam Tarnou, campus minister at Watermark Church. Upperclassmen involved in One28 also arrived early to help set up the event. Barnett sees the event as a way to welcome students, especially first-years, back to SMU’s campus. “It’s something fun for them to do and come out and meet people,” he said.

AAC announces pre-season honors BRIAN O’DONNELL Sports Editor bodonnell@smu.edu The American Athletic Conference released its preseason honors for football, volleyball and men’s and women’s soccer. These include predictions for how SMU will fare in each sport this fall. In football, Cincinnati emerged from the media poll as the favorite to win the American Championship this season, receiving 22 of the possible 30 votes. The Bearcats were the near unanimous selection to win the East Division, followed by UCF, Temple, East Carolina, USF and UConn. Memphis was selected as the favorite to win the West Division in a much tighter race. SMU finished fifth in the West Division behind Memphis, Houston, Navy and Tulane. Tulsa trailed
SMU for last place. SMU fared better in the men’s soccer coaches’ poll. The Mustangs were chosen to finish fourth behind UConn, Tulsa and USF respectively. The Huskies are the favorite to win the American Championship this season. SMU, along with UConn and USF, led the 2015 Preseason American All-Conference Team with three selections each. SMU’s selections included sophomore defender Jordan Cano, senior midfielder John Lujano and senior forward Idi Camara. In the women’s soccer coaches’ poll, SMU finished eighth ahead of Temple and Houston. Defending AAC champion UConn was chosen to repeat as conference champion this season. UCF, USF, Memphis, Cincinnati, East Carolina and Tulsa finished second through
seventh respectively. Though the Mustangs are predicted to have a tough season, sophomore midfielder Claire Oates was selected to the Preseason AllConference Team. SMU’s best preseason prediction came in volleyball. The Mustangs were selected to finish second in the coaches’ poll, only trailing defending champion UCF by four first-place votes. Finishing third through 11th were Temple, Tulsa, Cincinnati, Memphis, USF, UConn, East Carolina, Tulane and Houston. Three Mustangs, junior Janelle Giordano, junior Morgan Heise and senior Avery Acker, were selected to the Preseason AllConference Team.

Men’s hoops announces non-conference schedule PATRICK ENGEL Sports Staff Writer pengel@smu.edu SMU’s 2015 nonconference basketball schedule features nationally televised home games against Michigan and Gonzaga, plus road games at Stanford and crosstown rival TCU. The schedule, released Friday, includes 12 games, eight of which are at home and four on the road. The Mustangs will also play in the Las Vegas Classic tournament in December. SMU opens the season at home against Sam Houston State Saturday, Nov. 14 at 7 p.m. Five days later, the Mustangs
will travel to Stanford for a Thursday night game. Home games with Yale (Nov. 22) and Brown (Nov. 29) will follow.

SMU then plays Kent State in the first round of the Las Vegas Classic on Dec. 22. With a win, the Mustangs will play Dec. 23 vs. the winner of the Penn State-Colorado game. After Las Vegas, they start conference play, but Gonzaga will visit Moody Coliseum Feb. 13 for the final non-conference game. Six of the teams on
SMU’s schedule finished the 2014-15 season with winning records, and four won at least 20 games. Michigan, which didn’t have a winning season last year, is widely expected to bounce back this season. Gonzaga loses three starters, but returns three of the top five scorers from last season’s 35-3 team. Both games will be televised on ESPN2. SMU finished the 2014-15 season with a 27-7 record and won the American Athletic Conference regular season and conference tournament championships.

Bryson DeChambeau wins 115th US Amateur BRIAN O’DONNELL Sports Editor bodonnell@smu.edu SMU senior Bryson DeChambeau won the 115th U.S. Amateur Championship Sunday. With the victory, he joins Hank Kuehne (1998), Colt Knost (2007), and Kelly Kraft (2011) as the fourth golfer from SMU to win the prestigious title. When asked about becoming one of only five golfers, including Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jack Nicklaus and Ryan Moore, to win the NCAA Individual Championship and the U.S. Amateur in the same calendar year DeChambeau said: “I’ve been practicing my whole life for something like this, and to be able to do something historyworthy is pretty incredible.” The event was held at Olympia Fields Country Club in Illinois. After qualifying in the No. 23 position of stroke play, DeChambeau defeated five opponents in commanding fashion en route to the finals. He beat Robby Salomon 8 and 6 in the round of 64 and followed that up with a 5 and 4 victory over Matt NeSmith in the

last ten holes on the first 18 to take a 2-up lead into the second half of the match. From there, the experienced senior dominated, making a run that included four birdies and an eagle to take 6 of the last 11 holes and secure the title. “I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would be able to win this championship, and with all the dedication and hard work that I’ve put into making this possible, it’s finally realized and I’m so excited and so honored to be everybody’s champion, U.S. Amateur champion,” said DeChambeau in a post-match interview with Fox Sports. This win caps off one of the most successful summers in collegiate golf history for DeChambeau. Not only did he secure the coveted Havemeyer Trophy with his performance, but he also gained entry into next year’s U.S. Open and British Open and received an invitation to The Masters. Earlier in the summer he was named to the U.S. Walker Cup Team which will compete in Scotland in September. DeChambeau plans to finish his degree before turnig pro. In the meantime, he continues to make history and add to his SMU golf fame.

Lafayette 148 New York shows latest collection in Plano INDIA POUGHER Chief Copy Editor ipougher@smu.edu Neiman Marcus Willow Bend presented the Fall/Winter 2016 collection from Lafayette 148 New York Aug. 20 at the brand's new store shop at Neiman Marcus. "We had a little shop here, but it was time to make a statement, you know about who we are, what we stand for and the look that we're looking for in each of our shops. This shop is basically a representation of what we want all of our shops to look like," said Edward Wilkerson, Creative Director at Lafayette 148. "Creating an ambiance is key. It's like creating a collection, the two work together. So making a statement and having a home of our own within the Neiman Marcus stores is really important to us." Wilkerson and Neiman Marcus buyer, Olivia Metzger, presented the collection and discussed the make and inspiration behind each piece. The collection, a “Nod to the ’70s,”

included items like wide brim hats, tall boots, cardigans, longer skirts, wide leg pants, long vests, statement coats and turtlenecks. Materials ranged from knit fabrics and suede, to shearling and faux fur, which Metzger explained will now be referred to as “modern fur.” Wilkerson’s ’70s inspiration came from looking toward past trends and bringing them up-to-date for the modern woman. “When designers go back in time to create, we’re taking what was relevant then, like patchwork [and] like the long cardigan
sweaters, the longer skirts – it was about attitude and throwing clothes together in more of an eclectic way – but we’re in [Fall/ Winter] 2016 and we have to make it relevant for today. So we’re giving a nod to the past looking forward to the future,” Wilkerson said. With a color palette of browns, greens, black, white, gray and amethyst, and trends like patchwork and pleats, the collection not only evokes ’70s glamour, but also the ease of ready-to-wear for every woman’s closet. “I point out items within the collection,
like the patchwork skirt, because that’s a very personal piece, and it’s what you do with it that makes it become your personality,” Wilkerson said. Metzger believes the trends seen in Wilkerson’s collection are a perfect fit for the Neiman Marcus customer. “I feel like there’s so many luxe elements, there’s the haircalf, there’s the shearling in three different colors, there’s sequins for day. There’s just this little touch of elegance and luxuriousness that I don’t feel like we’ve had this much of in the collection before,” Metzger said. After the show, Wilkerson interacted with clients and styled shoppers, pointing out pieces and explaining their role within the collection. He hopes that the Lafayette 148 brand will speak to women of all ages and lifestyles. “What makes fashion modern today is giving it your personality and giving it your own stamp. And that’s why I like to create the collection around items and key pieces, because if it’s not a head-to-toe look it’s more eclectic,” Wilkerson said.

‘Fall’ for the hottest trends this season EMILY WARD Fashion Editor eward@smu.edu Fall Fashion Weeks are always full of jawdropping moments, but the real fun comes with spotting a trend that can actually be worn in everyday life.

suitable for cooler temps and a new favorite fall outfit is ready to go. Tights will save skirts and shorts from only seeing the insides of dressers and closets until the New Year, and a collared shirt looks both covered and polished under summer’s trendy crop top. Pair that floral tea length skirt everyone fell in love with in June with a chunky sweater to love it even more this fall and winter.
Blush Rush The rosy tint is having a major moment this fall; so don’t brush it off as too innocent. Considered the new neutral, blush is going to be everyone’s go-to this autumn. Be on the lookout for metallic finishes, furry textures and distressed details to give this once sugary sweet shade a sassy attitude adjustment. Whether in clothes, shoes or accessories, definitely don’t miss this blushing trend.

Revive the ‘70s with a fringe and suede purse.
The ’70s were big for handicrafts, so woven details like leather weaving and braiding really capture the essence of the decade. Find this fall trend on belts, shoes, boots and bags and pair it with flared jeans, button-front skirts and flowy dresses. Search Etsy for some great vintage-inspired woven detail finds. Whether in cognac brown for some beautiful boho inspiration or black for a look that screams glam rocker, fringe is a fun and easy way to add a dash of ’70s to any look, without going into full hippie mode. Fringed purses are the perfect solution for collegeaged women who still want to embrace the flower-child style, but not look juvenile. In the past year, full brimmed hats have burst onto the fashion scene once again and seem to be here to stay. Master the trend this fall in a wide-brim felt hat in brown, black, burgundy or mauve. Pair your favorite topper with a romper for Sunday brunch with the girls or with a dress, knee-high socks and riding boots for a look that’s comfortably cute while sitting in class all day. A silk scarf was the quintessential accessory in the ’70s and today’s fashionistas are jumping onboard. Loop a silk scarf twice around the neck, or the handle of any handbag, or wear a long skinny scarf casually

Master the military trend with combat boots.
tucked in polos, this fall’s utilitarian styles will be the new favorite uniform. These fatigues will bring everyone to attention with their edgy elements like grommets, buckles and rivets. Pick out a new dress in a gorgeous army green or a military-inspired jacket to master this surprisingly simple trend. Toestoppers Whether slip-on or lace up, no one can go wrong with a pair of high tops when the weather cools down this autumn. Plus, with rich textures and added features, this season’s spin on the classic sneaker is sure to kick any outfit’s casual style up a notch. Shearling-lined, embellished toes, buckles and prints are just some of the details not to be missed on fall’s high tops. Rocking the classic white and or black high tops are also a hit.
For the most impact, wear one shade on multiple outfit features or coordinate makeup with clothes. Rita Ora paired red eyeliner with a fierce red pantsuit, but the everyday fashionista can rock this trend by wearing a fiery crimson dress and complimenting it with bold red lips. Either way, this solely scarlet look will project total confidence. For something more sweet and chic, try a flushed face paired with a monochromatic light pink outfit, a la Rihanna in that frothy petal-colored confection and dewey makeup at this year’s Grammys. While electric blue eyeliner and matching jeweled nails will look edgy and sleek. So pick a fave shade and run with it.

Fighting off the ‘freshman 15’ CARLEEANN ALLEN Assoc. A&L Food & Fitness carleeanna@smu.edu College is always referred to as “the best four years of your life.” It’s when people discover who they are and what they are passionate about. It’s the only time in your life that you look forward to living in a building with approximately 200 of your closest friends. This chapter of life is amazing and more fun than the past 18 years of life combined, but it does come with some drawbacks. The most obvious is the freshman 15. The freshman 15 is real
and affects almost everyone at some point or another, but there are simple ways to fight the weight gain and increase your overall health. Here are the top tips on staying healthy and fit in college. Get moving. The gym can seem very daunting to a first-year, but it is the best place to go to relieve stress and work on building a healthy lifestyle. Attending Group X classes is a great way to meet people and get your heart rate up. Even simple switches like taking the stairs instead of the elevator can burn a few extra calories and help you keep the weight off.

Be aware of sneaky calories. Everyone blames the college weight gain on bad cafeteria food or late night pizza orders. The real cause of most of the weight gain is alcohol. It’s no secret that alcohol isn’t good for you, but most people don’t realize how many calories are packed into each shot or can of beer. A good rule of thumb is that a shot has around 100 calories in it. A fun night can turn into a
real calorie bomb that is hard to work off the next day. Be conscientious of what and how much you’re drinking to avoid packing on the extra pounds. The calories will get you, it may not be freshman year, but don’t let the freshman 15 turn into the sophomore 30, junior 45 and so on. College goes by quickly and you’ll make memories that last a lifetime. Take time to develop healthy life habits that you can carry on to post graduate life. Look for healthy options in the dining hall and try local restaurants in Snider Plaza like Nekter Juice Bar or Zoes Kitchen.

Q & A with Carlton Adams SMU’s student body president on summer, senate, goals NOAH BARTOS Opinion Editor nbartos@smu.edu
Q: We’ll start with the typical firstyear questions: name; where are you from; major; family members; and any pets? A: Carlton Adams, senior from Dallas, Texas. About five minutes from campus. I am majoring in Economics through Dedman. I am a third generation Mustang, and the youngest of six kids (and two brothers-in-law), and I also have a twin. She goes to TCU… ha. I have two English mastiffs, 185 lbs and 150 lbs, both girls named Lucy and Sophie. Q: How was your summer? A: Summer flew by, as most of ours did. I was working for Miramar Holdings for the second summer in a row and had my obligations here at SMU. I met with a lot of services and departments on campus to build up relationships with administration, faculty and staff. It was a productive summer, but I was always looking forward to the students’ arrival on campus. Q: What are you most excited for this school year? A: The centennial celebration is going to be really exciting and it is awesome that it is

going on while I’m student body president. I recently realized that I’m technically the centennial student body president, and I’m excited to be serving the student body in SMU’s significant centennial year. Q: What are your three biggest projects or goals for Student Senate this year? A: First and foremost to spread awareness that we are the student government on campus. We aren’t like any other student organization, we aren’t even an organization. We are the students’

governing body. We also want to make known all of SMU’s resources for students on campus because there’s a lot of things that go on that students don’t know about and miss. We want students to know each and every resource made available to them. And we want to uphold the transparency of Student Senate and what we do – improving the day-to-day function of Student Senate chambers and what the senators do. Improving diligence and how committees run and increasing work accomplished. Overall, letting students inside and outside of the chamber know that students’ voices are heard. Q: Summarize the purpose of your presidency in one sentence. A: To serve each and every student on this campus, whether undergraduate, graduate, Cox, Lyle, Simmons, Meadows, etc. No matter who you are or where you came from, I want to represent and serve you well and improve the student experience overall. Q: How do you plan to improve SMU’s Student Senate? A: I want to increase awareness of what we do in the senate chambers by writing articles and promoting it. I want people to know who their representatives are, what they are doing, and how things get done. Also, I want people to know that they are welcome to come to sessions and give their input (senate is held Tuesdays at 3:30 p.m. in the Forum of Hughes-Trigg). Q: What do you hope to give to SMU’s student body with your presidency? A: Still working on figuring it out. But I want to improve the student experience. I am passionate about improving the day to day student experience on campus. I want to improve the experience for those who come from thousands of miles away and also for those who already are familiar with Dallas. I’m always available for new ideas or just on where to eat! Q: One piece of advice for the class of 2019? A: Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Step outside of your comfort zone and try something new. Maybe it’s a new sport or an interesting organization – try out what SMU has to offer. Have fun with your time in college!
