Students wait in line at the newly-opened Starbucks at Fondren Library Center as part of the library’s major renovations.

New semester brings new changes to campus JACQUELYN ELIAS & OLIVIA NGUYEN

In the typical SMU manner, renovations and construction have been underway throughout the summer, leading to many campus openings for this fall semester.

For students, professors and other campus community members that may have missed out on the “caution”-taped areas, road blocks and melodic sounds of construction, here’s a brief overview on all the projects that took place on campus.

Finished project: Dr. Bob Smith Health Center After years of construction and two different temporary locations for the health center, the new Dr. Bob Smith Health Center officially opened Aug. 8, ending the construction that made travel to the North area commons difficult.

SMU broke ground on the project Dec. 5, 2014.

According to an SMU press release, the 33,000 sq. ft. health center is designed to “provide comprehensive outpatient health care to more than 11,000 SMU students on an ongoing basis throughout each school year.”

The Dr. Bob Smith Health Center also has a classroom allowing health educators and professionals to “expand student health education” by including more “prevention, wellness and peer-education programs such as fitness classes, health screenings and programs aimed at substance abuse prevention.”

In addition to classrooms, 19 counseling offices were added for the SMU counseling and psychiatric services program.

The Dr. Bob and Jean Smith Foundation funded the new health center through a $5 million gift to “enable center

staff to increase promotion of student wellness through health education, medical services and counseling and psychiatric services.”

Dedication for the Dr. Bob Smith Health Center is scheduled for Sept. 16.

Ongoing project: Hughes-Trigg Student Center The Hughes-Trigg Student Center also faced some new changes. On Aug. 22, Steel City Pops in the SMU Market had its grand opening, offering free popsicles to the first 500 people who came and followed SMU Dining on Instagram.

“I am very excited and very pleased,” said Rhonda Kelly, an SMU staff member for 19 years and is currently employed at Steel City Pops.

Kelly said approximately on the first day of classes

around 530 students came to try the newest addition to campus.

A few weeks earlier, SMU closed an old, favorite coffee location, Cafe 100, in the

Hughes-Trigg Student Center.

According to Jennifer Wilkins, SMU Dining Marketing Manager, Cafe 100 was closed down “in order

to make room for the new Starbucks in Fondren Library next door.”

The Associate Vice President of Campus Services and the SMU Dining team are working closely with the Student Affairs leadership to develop a holistic plan for the Hughes-Trigg Student Center. Currently, the area is being used as additional storage for the post office.

Finished project: Fondren Library In Spring 2015, SMU took on Fondren Library Center as another major capital project.

With an initiative to redesign and modernize the facility to have interactive technology and serve as a place for the community to gather, the renovated library achieved all objectives upon the project’s completion this summer.

The entire interior of Fondren Library Center changed, new wall color, furniture, lighting and flooring to create an environment “conducive to study, research and intellectual exploration (including a new Starbucks for the needed caffeine study boost).” The IT Help Desk also was included in the Fondren renovation. The help center relocated to the collaborative common area, making room for Parking and ID Card Services to move its offices to the Hughes-Trigg Student Center.

According to Lauren Nelson, IT Help Desk Manager, the renovation gave the IT Help Desk a

new, expanded space that is centrally located on campus, with perks by being adjacent to the newly opened Starbucks.

“We love the new area,” Nelson said. “It is truly an inviting space with plenty of new technology, and the perfect place to meet for group study sessions.”

So far, Nelson said there has been a lot of positive feedback from the campus community on the new space, in addition to the new features the IT Help Desk now offers.

“Students have also been excited about the new pay-for-print solution offered on campus,”

Nelson said. “They have really loved the ability to send print jobs from anywhere–even on their phone– and release the print job from the various pay-for-print stations located across campus.”

The rest of the $17 million Fondren renovation project is anticipated to finish October 2016, after breaking ground in June 2015.

Finished projects: Dallas Hall and Ford Stadium In addition to these structural changes, Dallas Hall lawn also had a sprinkler system installed, and Ford Stadium replaced their stadium turf over the summer.

Ongoing projects: SMU Aquatics Center and Indoor Stadium As of now, the SMU Aquatics Center is still under construction while the new SMU athletics indoor soccer and football stadium is in its first stages of construction.

According to an SMU press release, the 42,000 sq. ft. Aquatics Center will be the new training arena for the SMU men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams. It will feature an “Olympic sized, eight-lane indoor pool with a platform diving well, including four springboards and a 10-meter tower for training and competition” complete with 800 seats for spectators.

The new Aquatics Center will also have coaches’ offices, locker rooms, a classroom and a meeting area for the teams to gather.

Lastly, the facility will have a permanent exhibit honoring former swimmers, divers and coaches who have built the strong reputation of SMU’s swimming and diving program. Its legacy has made Olympians, world record holders and 155 national titles.

More than 20 donors pooled in funds for the SMU Aquatics Center, with lead donors including “Shelli and Steve Lindley ‘74 and the Willard M. and Ruth Mayer Johnson Charitable Foundation, the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation, Emily and Bruce Robson ‘74, Hannah and Joe Robson ‘76, and Susan Cooper Wilson ‘67 and Robert A. Wilson ‘67.”

Strong is the new skinny JANELLE GIORDANO Assignments Desk Editor jgiordano@smu.edu Defined, muscular, strongly built and beautiful. That’s how Craisha Washington, a former track runner at SMU, would describe her physique. Her arms and legs are dominated by muscle that has been cut and toned over years of strength training and proper nutrition.

Washington is aware her build might be considered “manly” by some cultural norms, but she loves every bit of it.

“I definitely feel abnormal, but I embrace it because I know I’m unique,” said Washington, who posted a record time in the 100-meter dash as a fifth-year senior last season, a record she hadn’t touched since her freshman year.

Washington’s positive outlook on body image, however, may not be as common among many female athletes, especially in sports like track, basketball, or swimming, where muscle and bulk are necessary for high performance.

Females feel pressured to look like the skinny models that typically appear on the cover of fashion magazines, and athletes aren’t immune to it. Athletes also face monthly weigh-ins that add to the pressure of being a certain size and weight.

A recent survey by the SMU Campus Weekly of 54 SMU women athletes shows that roughly 83 percent of female athletes on campus have struggled with body image at some point in their lives. Nearly 82 percent of the athletes said they have altered their diet to lose weight.

“I’ve struggled with body image before, mainly because of the exposure of being in a swim suit,” said Maddie Hoch, a senior swimmer at SMU who took the survey. “I see a lot of girls in the cafeteria eating veggies for dinner, but you have to recognize that, as an athlete, your body needs more calories and you need to take care of it.”

Brittney Bearden, the sports dietitian for SMU athletics, said that it is common for female athletes to have disordered eating, in which their caloric intake is not sufficient for the amount of energy they must exert during training.

“Sometimes girls get this idea that they need to eat just like their friends who aren’t athletes, which isn’t the case at all,” said Bearden. “Athletes have very different needs in order to perform well in their sport.”

A reason behind these body image issues and restrictive dieting is society’s presentation

of what the perfect body looks like. In the survey, 63 percent of female athletes said they strongly agree that society puts pressure on women to be skinny and fit.

“I think the stereotypical model puts athletes down considering we don’t have the ideal bodies,” Hoch said.

Disordered eating is just one part of the “Female Athlete Triad,” addressed by the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) Medical Commission. The triad consists of three different health problems that officials say are serious concerns for female athletes in competitive sports: disordered eating, menstrual disturbances and bone loss.

Disordered eating is the main cause of the other two components in the triad, and any combination of them can severely inhibit an athlete’s ability to compete.

The IOC Medical Commission states that women diet in order to lose weight and increase their performance, but they are actually hurting themselves by deteriorating muscle mass along with body fat.

Hoch, one of the female athletes who said she altered her diet to lose weight, noticed first-hand the effects of inadequate nutrition on performance.

“I’ve noticed that when I diet it’s a lot harder to perform my best during practice,” Hoch said.

While research shows that the majority of female athletes have made these dietary modifications, many believe that the media is doing a better job of shining the light on strong women, and have included more professional athletes in their ads.

In recent years, female athletes like Serena Williams and Ronda Rousey have made appearances on the cover of fashion magazines such as Vogue and Maxim. These strong and successful women are proving that women don’t have to be thin to be beautiful.

“I think times are changing and there is more emphasis being put on a health and fitness,” said Washington. “Now it’s more of a prize to have a strong body.”

Washington’s love for her body translates into a work ethic that allows her to reach track times that she hasn’t seen in four years, and her efforts do not go unnoticed.

“I am very proud of my girlfriend for her unbelievable work ethic and for staying true to her nutrition,” said Darrion Richardson, Washington’s boyfriend and a defensive back for the SMU football team. “I can honestly say she motivates me to work out and eat well, too.”

SMU students, alumni prove ‘world changers are shaped here’

Current, former Mustangs compete in the 2016 Olympic games in Rio REBEKAH BOSLER Sports Editor rbosler@smu.edu SMU had nine Mustangs competing in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games: six swimmers, a track runner, a martial artist and a swimming coach.

Jackie Galloway recorded the highest finish of any SMU athlete, finishing third in the taekwondo heavyweight competition for team USA. Former SMU swimmer Rachel Nicol represented Canada and earned fifth in the finals of the women’s 100-meter breaststroke and fifth with her team in the 4x100-meter medley. While at SMU, Nicol set the 200-yard breaststroke record, which

still stands.

Lovia Lindh competed for Sweden in the women’s 800-meter run, placing 10th. She qualified for the semifinals, but missed the finals despite running a personal-best 1:59.14 for the two laps.

Coaching for the Bulgarian National Team was SMU Head Swimming Coach Steve Collins.

This was Collin’s sixth Olympic games. He begins his 31st year coaching at SMU this fall. During his time with the Mustangs, he was named NCAA coach of the year twice.

Isabella Arcila competed in the women’s 50-meter freestyle for Colombia. She was a decorated athlete during her time at SMU, setting three conference records along with winning

seven individual conference titles.

Also competing for Colombia was Jonathan Gomez, in the men’s 200m butterfly. He is a transfer student from Saint Peter’s University in New Jersey, who will enter into his junior year at SMU this Fall.

Julian Fletcher swam in the men’s 100-meter breaststroke competition for his home country of Bermuda. While at SMU, Fletcher set the seventh fastest 100-yard breaststroke time in Mustangs’ history.

This was the third Olympics for Nina Rangelova, who competed in the women’s 100-meter and 200-meter freestyle for Bulgaria.

She is currently the volunteer assistant coach for the SMU swimming team.

SMU hires Shawn Forrest as assistant basketball coach

MAC ENGEL Fort Worth Star-Telegram

PATRICK ENGEL Assistant Sports Editor pengel@smu.edu SMU basketball has completed its staff under head coach Tim Jankovich.

The Mustangs announced Aug. 23 the hiring of Shawn Forrest as an assistant, filling the spot left by Tim Jankovich’s July promotion to head coach.

Forrest left Louisiana Tech, which originally hired him in May, to take the job at SMU. He spent the last three seasons as an assistant at Western Kentucky.

“I am excited for the opportunity to join coach Jankovich’s staff at SMU,” Forrest said in a statement.

“Coach Jankovich is one of the best minds in the game and very well respected throughout the country. His vision, the Moody Magic and an opportunity to help build upon what SMU basketball has accomplished over the last four years was something I simply couldn’t pass up. I look forward to contributing to the championship tradition and culture

Cowboys’ Jaylon Smith says top college players should not sit

at SMU.” Forrest’s other coaching stops include Louisiana-Lafayette, North Texas, Arkansas State and Florida A&M. He started his career as a graduate assistant at Troy in 1998 and played college basketball at Arkansas-Pine Bluff.

The 2016-2017 SMU Men’s Basketball season will begin Friday, Nov. 11. The Mustangs are currently lined up to play Gardner-Webb at Moody Coliseum.

The SMU Campus Weekly will provide more update on sports news as they become available.

The savior for the Dallas Cowboys defense looks great on the practice field, even though he can only work by himself with a trainer while the rest of the team plays football.

To the naked eye, Cowboys second-round draft pick Jaylon Smith is fine.

“I feel great,” he said. “I feel fantastic. It’s hard to put it in words, but the way I feel _ I feel amazing. It’s just time.

I am 21 and you can’t rush it.

I am going to be out there as soon as I get cleared. If God wants that to be this year, it’s going to happen. If not, so be it.”

He does not limp, walk slowly or show any signs that he is eight months removed

from tearing his left ACL and MCL in the final football game of his college career.

The earliest we will see the Jaylon Smith who was projected to be a top-10 pick in the 2016 NFL draft is in 2017.

We are in an age where the best college players are starting to hear encouragement not to play in their junior seasons; that the best play is to not play. If any person should have strong feelings about college football players not playing to avoid injury that would affect their draft stock, it’s Jaylon Smith.

He is the latest example of how the college player incurs all of the risk while his college team and the NFL happily have zero.

Despite Smith’s past, he has the best attitude for any player contemplating whether

to shut it down as a junior, or a senior, to avoid injury _ potentially damaging their bank account.

“I would say play. I would say to insure yourself for the worst-case scenario, but to play,” he said. “I am blessed to be here. I am on America’s Team playing with my brother (fullback Rod Smith). I would not change it one bit. If it wasn’t supposed to happen, it would not have happened.”

Sentiment has grown in recent years that the top college players projected for next year’s draft should just work out, and stay in shape without playing a game.

The theory began to grow in popularity with former South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney...

Locals defy gravity in circus school JACQUELYN ELIAS Contributing Writer jelias@smu.edu Nineteen-year-old and recent high school graduate, Jesse Patterson’s traces Claire McFadden’s movements as Claire practices her hula hoop trick, swinging the silver hoop around her small frame.

For the second time this morning, the hoop flies from 14-year-old McFadden’s body, whizzing until it collides with the Lone Star Circus School’s wall, and produces a sharp and alarming “dink.”

The hoop rebounds off the wall and hits a landing cushion a few feet away situated below an aerial hoop, a metal ring hanging about eight feet off the ground.

To the left of McFadden and Patterson, Stephanie Stewart, a Lone Star School instructor, swings nearly 10 feet in the air, her feet and arms gripping the yellow aerial silk that

suspends her.

Stewart watches as her intermediate adult skills students climb the aerial silks after a slow and much-needed warmup on an early Saturday morning. She then leads the women to start side crunches while in the air — grunts and complaints escaping from them.

Eventually, each starts to twist herself in different ways on the silk before letting her hands free from the fabric, trusting her safety to the correct implementation of the trick she is attempting.

McFadden slowly walks to retrieve her hoop once again.

“You need to watch your hand,” Patterson says to McFadden, leaning forward on the green bleachers. She continues to offer a more technical solution to McFadden’s trick.

Determined, McFadden once again works on her trick, and Patterson relaxes to watch once again during her first break all morning.

As she has done every Saturday for months, Patterson is spending her Saturday at Inwood Soccer Center, home to the Lone Star Circus School.

The parking lot for the small sports complex seems like a dead end, framed by storage sheds on one side and a bubble-looking tent over the soccer field to the other.

Inside the narrow concrete hallway, the entrance to the school gym can easily be overlooked, if not for the Lone Star Circus logo on the windowless door. But the gym is anything but forgettable.

Bright-red carpeted floors, blank walls, hanging silks of rainbow colors, trapezes and hoops fill the interior.

From an outsider’s perspective, the gym seems like a color-clashing chaos, but to Patterson and others in the school, this gym is the practice field of their future.

Patterson, an aspiring circus professional and dedicated circus student, started her journey eight years ago, a career path that not even her parents could have predicted for her.

Patterson lived in a family of four with her parents and her twin sister, Catherine.

With no performers in her family, Patterson’s primary exposure to circus came through her studies at Dallas International School (DIS), a private school in North Dallas focused on a global education.

DIS offers after-school circus practices through Lone Star Circus School for students in addition to sports and other extracurricular activities, such as soccer and yoga.

At the age of 10, Patterson decided to join the program after watching several performances by her classmates. She eased into the program by taking one course a week; however, due to her height, she was placed in a level with older and more advanced students, which was a challenge.

“Being around people who were a lot better than me made me want to be better,” Patterson said.

Founder Fanny Kerwich climbs to the top of silk ropes.

Within half a year, Jesse felt the spark of performing that drove her to continue.

Patterson’s mother, Cynthia, recalls her daughter’s ambitions from an early age.

At around the age of 11 and just a few months after beginning classes with Lone Star, Jesse rode in the backseat of her parents’ car as she excitedly told her parents her dreams and goals in circus.

Her parents, supportive yet amused at their young daughter’s determination, laughed as Jesse continued to speak.

Jesse, irritated by her parents’ reaction, said, “I don’t think you’re taking my career choices serious enough.” Jesse, however, takes her circus development very seriously and now considers her practice as a job instead of a hobby.

“She hasn’t really wavered, and she’s been very focused on her objectives,” Cynthia said.

The Dallas Lone Star School offers 21 different classes on every day of the week except for Saturday in specialties ranging from aerials to juggling. The

school even offers a toddler course for ages three through five.

Grace Farrelly, a 10-year-old student at DIS, begged her mother to start circus after watching a professional show when she was five.

“She never looked back,” said Katie Farrelly, Grace’s mother.

“She loved it from the beginning.”

Katie watches from the bleachers as Grace practices her piece for the school’s upcoming spring performance, which begins with Grace in an aerial loop, reading a page of a newspaper as she climbs on the loop.

Even though aspiring performers like Jesse and Grace approach their practices wholeheartedly, parents face special challenges to support their children.

“Mostly, I’m concerned about whether or not she could make a living doing [circus], and safety,” Cynthia said.

Jesse’s mother and father have both encouraged Jesse to pursue an untraditional degree plan through an online university while striving for the circus, and Jesse

has agreed to take courses for a business degree while performing.

“I am always pushing her to get a master plan to get direction,” Cynthia said.

Success in the circus, however, depends mainly on the work ethic of the individual, because a school can offer only so many classes.

“Here you can do anything if you are willing to give what it takes,” said Fanny Kerwich, founder of the Lone Star Circus School.

Kerwich knows the commitment level that the profession takes.

“It is a lifetime sacrifice,” Kerwich said. “You give everything you have for five minutes on stage to touch people in a way that no other act can.”

Kerwich recalls Jesse’s early dedication.

“Jesse from day one was the kind of kid who you could show one trick, and she would come back to class and learn three.”

Jesse challenged herself outside of classes by watching other performers’ tricks on sites like YouTube, and used these ideas to develop her own style.

Despite noting Jesse’s talent, Kerwich watched from afar as Jesse developed in her training before starting to work with her.

“I’ve been the meanest to her than anyone else,” Kerwich said, waiting to see if Jesse’s passion will stand the test of time before investing her time in Jesse’s training. Eventually, Kerwich mentored Jesse after she adopted the hula hoops as her specialty.

During Jesse’s freshman year, she transitioned to coaching while still working with private coaches for specialized training in hula hoops. She also performs at different shows across the country, such as the Worldwide Circus Summit in Massachusetts, the Austin JuggleFest or the Chicago Contemporary Circus Festival.

Despite the time commitment, Jesse says that traveling is her favorite part of what she does.

“Morris From America” tugs at heartstrings RILEY COVEN Arts and Life Editor rcoven@smu.edu “Morris From America” is a wonderful coming-of-age story from Chad Hartigan. It tells the story of a 13-yearold boy, the titular Morris, and his father Curtis. The two have recently moved from their native state of New York all the way to a little town in Germany. The story is a sweet trip through the emotional highs and lows that Morris and his father face in the adversity of their new territory.

The film is really brought to life by the story. At first it seems that it could slip into unwanted, clichéd territory, which it does once or twice, but the story is strong enough and unique in its characters that the progression moves forward without being muddled down in any way.

The key point of the movie is Morris’ introverted tendencies and inability to make friends, which all changes upon meeting Katrin, a rebellious older teen that Morris almost immediately falls for. Katrin helps to bring Morris out of his shell and encourages him to go out and have fun, which he reluctantly does.

The story between Katrin and Morris is beautiful in and of itself, but becomes even stronger as it ditches expected stereotypes, and becomes a relationship that isn’t seen too much in film and television.

What really brings life to the relationship, and film in general, are the vibrant colors that interlay each scene. Everything in the background and foreground is some bright shade of color that washes across the

Craig Robinson and Markees Christmas star in “Morris From America.”

scene, breathing life into the characters and the world that Morris has been forced into.

The colors help highlight another aspect of this unique story: that often the problems Morris faces are his own fault.

Morris clearly laments his removal from his home city and refuses to open himself up to the possibility that his new circumstances might not be the unfair situation he saw them to be. Morris frequently rebukes any attempt that other youths make at becoming his friend, which leads him into a self-pitying sorrow revolving around his loneliness. It’s hard to watch, as the audience is so aware of Morris selffulfilling prophecy. It’s only due to his infatuation with Katrin that he allows her to crack open his shell in the first place.

What really makes this film special are the mirrored stories of Morris and his father. Curtis, played in a strong turn by Craig Robinson, has his own series of problems that we see throughout the film. His loneliness from losing his wife, as well as his inability to make friends are more

unfortunate than Morris’ due to the fact that he is actively tries to be sociable.

Watching Morris avoid friendship when it’s offered to him becomes even more sad as we become more aware of how difficult it is to make friends by experiencing his father’s attempts. While the more bitter tones of the movie is absolutely apparent, it by no means a depressing film.

The relationship between Morris and his father is one of the strongest and well-written familial bonds in any recent film. Curtis just wants the best for Morris and the audience can see and empathize with him but simultaneously feel sorry for Morris. Their bond never falters and it becomes the backbone of the film; the strong point that we can always go back to and be excited to see.

It’s the resonating piece that always stays true, and helps us when we’re feeling down– and it’s the same way for Morris.

SMU pranking students on parking?

Pranking and parking, those are two very similar words. If you squint or read them pretty fast, you’ll be excused for maybe mixing them up. But what do these two have in common?

At first glance, SMU seems to again be pranking students with the parking situation.

Parking complaints have gone back a long time. In 2003, students were already complaining about parking tickets and appealing them. In 2011 a blog dedicated to the issue (since inactive) stated that parking was something that students had “continually voiced concerns over.” Just last year, SMU’s master plan to make campus more pedestrianfriendly, essentially eliminating all interior parking lots, drew

heat from students as well.

Clearly this has been an ongoing problem. In light of the issues, a parking lot behind the new health center seemed reasonable. If you zoom in on the master plan image published in the Campus Weekly article on Feb. 17, 2015, there does appear to be a lot sketched in.

However, it is now another one of SMU’s famous parks, with only a few spots available, which hopefully will be reserved for patients.

To make matters worse, the announcement of the new soccer field July 26, it seems as if we stand to lose even more parking on campus. If you look closely in the graphic online, the proposed indoor training field and football field are in a different orientation than Westcott Field. This means the new arrangement will eliminate the residential lot in front of Mac’s place, as you can see with some careful attention to the architectural rendering.

However, these potential parking woes will be fixed with upcoming construction projects on campus. Jay Miester, director of Project Management Services at SMU’s Office of Facilities Planning and Management,

states that “SMU has increased the number of parking spaces on campus since 2010.” He also states that “SMU is looking to build another parking center on Hillcrest” and that there are “two new surface parking lots being constructed which will add over 200 additional parking spaces for SMU’s use.”

While the officially announced and completed projects it might make it seem like SMU was going to reduce parking, indeed things might get better for parking on campus within the next years with the proposed projects. We may indeed be able to get our promised idyllic campus, somehow full of both parks and adequate parking for everyone.

Trump’s immigration plans will prove too costly

A major part of Donald Trump’s strategy this campaign season has been in promoting radical immigration policies.

Everyone knows Trump as the candidate who vows to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it.

The Donald recently has expanded his immigration policy to be employed in the fight against ISIS and terrorism, advocating stronger immigration checks for those entering the country– even proposing full bans on Muslim immigrants at times.

While one major difficulty in understanding Trump’s immigration policy is that he is always changing his stance on the issues, and what makes even less sense is how he plans to pay for all of his immigration reforms.

Yes, Trump does have an entire section on his website dedicated to how he’ll pay for

the wall. His plan basically consists of suspending any flow of cash to Mexico, which he claims amounts to $24 billion a year, in exchange for a one-time payment of $10 billion to fund the wall.

For starters, this seems like some wacky cartoon heist. I am going to assume that you cannot just hold another country up for $10 billion. Even if Trump’s deal goes through, it would set an extremely dangerous precedent for America’s interest and trade abroad. Do we really want China or any other holder of our debt to be pulling these same tactics against us?

Then there is the cost of

Trump’s new proposal that immigrants be subject to an ideological screening test. He stated that his “extreme vetting” would consist of vetting out “any who have hostile attitudes towards our country or who believe that Sharia law should supplant American law.”

The upside to this plan is that it makes some sense. There are organizations of people out there who would love nothing more than to attack America at home, and if there was an effective way for preventing this with a screening process then I would feel pretty good about it.

The issue comes in implementing the screening process itself. First off, there certainly is a huge issue in assuming America has one homogeneous ideology which we can screen immigrants against. While the values of personal freedom and liberty are the founding values of our

country, everyone interprets these differently. What standard would he use to create his ideological screening? This not even to mention the issues of religious freedom that the ideological screening brings up.

Even if permissible, the cost of creating such a screening process and then implementing it would be incredibly high.

Republicans are typically the ones worried about government spending, and this plan would certainly work against that.

Essentially, most of Trump’s immigration plans are farfetched and would be incredibly costly to institute. Any supposed economic gains he could make at home would be wiped out by the expenses his policies would institute. While some might like the idea of a safer country and a little less competition in the job market, this “nice idea” would come with a huge price tag, preventing it from being reality.

Seven must-reads for the fashion media student INDIA POUGHER Fashion Columnist ipougher@smu.edu With the beginning of a new semester, a new armful of textbooks for each student’s upcoming course list must follow.

Fashion media students are lucky enough to avoid dreaded economics or accounting textbooks, and usually get something more along the lines of history of garments or an AP Stylebook.

Working in fashion media is all about being well-read, so check out these must-have books that go beyond the required texts (and might even make some great coffee table additions).

The Thames and Hudson Dictionary of Fashion and Fashion Designers by Georgina O’Hara Callan and Cat Glover Let’s start with the basics. With the definition for everything from fabrics and sewing techniques to short descriptions on design houses, this is the perfect book to keep next to your AP Stylebook.

Writing for the Fashion Business by Kristen K. Swanson and Judith C. Everett This primer on fashion media offers everything from a guide to the structure of different mastheads, to how to write a press release, and everything else you’ve always had questions about.

Grace: A Memoir by Grace Coddington In this personal and endearing account, former Vogue creative director turned illustrator/musthave vanity addition, Grace Coddington, talks about her childhood, modeling, and how she ended up at American Vogue, all while giving you insight into the mind of a fashion icon.

In Vogue: An Illustrated History of the World’s Most Famous Fashion Magazine by Alberto Oliva and Norberto Angeletti Indulge in the most beautiful and iconic images from Vogue’s history offering both inspiration and education for every serious fashion girl.

Man Repeller: Seeking Love, Finding Overalls by Leandra Medine Blogging is taking over,

and it’s a tough party to crash.

In her book, Leandra Medine offers a relatable and funny memoir (just wait until you read about her Valentino internship and her first Hermès bag) of her life, and how one of the most popular fashion blogs really came into being.

Vogue: The Editor’s Eye

by Condé Nast and Anna Wintour She may not have written a memoir yet, but Anna Wintour has contributed to tons of books and films (“The September Issue” anyone?). In this book, she breaks down the history and impact of Vogue’s greatest editors throughout the years.

D.V.: Diana Vreeland

by Diana Vreeland Before Wintour came (pun intended) there was D.V. Diana Vreeland, who was the legendary editor at Harper’s Bazaar, and later at Vogue, once said “un shined shoes are the end of civilization.”

Her memoir is a mustread for anyone obsessed with not just style, but the lifestyle of fashion.

In Vogue, Man Repeller and D.V. are a few reads SMU fashion media students can learn from.

Look of the Week

Lilly Pulitzer brings her preppy prints to NorthPark this summer GABRIELLA BRADLEY Style Editor gjbradley@smu.edu The queen of prep has finally expanded her kingdom to Dallas. This summer NorthPark mall added a Lilly Pulitzer store to its already extensive store directory on the stretch between Nordstrom and Macy’s department stores.

The late Mrs. Pulitzer started her bold print dresses

when she needed an outfit that wouldn’t show orangejuice stains she regularly acquired after a day working at her Palm Beach juice stand. Soon her shifts dresses spread throughout the small resort town she called home and once Jacqueline Kennedy was photographed wearing one of her designs, they became a staple among southerners and the WASPy types alike.

Since the ’50s, the brand has soared to new heights.

What started as simple shift dresses has evolved into extensive clothing lines, accessories, agendas, and even the occasional car (you can spot the Lilly Pulitzer Jeep outside of select stores or just touring around Florida during the summer).

The brand is so widely popular that the Target collection it produced last spring sold out in minutes,

with hundreds of Pulitzer die-hards camping out front of the stores hoping to be the first to get their hands on the resort wear items.

Adding a location in Dallas was an easy, logical expansion for the brand as Highland Park moms and SMU students are both major wearers of the bright hand-painted prints, now which can be easily found just down the road in its new colorful shop.
