Members of SMU sororities and fraternities gathered Sunday outside Sorority Row to celebrate Panhellenic Bid Day. After a week of chants, bump groups and long nights, sorority girls met their new pledge classes.

“My favorite part about bid day is waiting for all the new members to come,” junior Pi Beta Phi member Kristin Miller said.

“We’ve all been so excited for the

past four hours. I can’t wait for everyone to be here.”

Recruitment for Panhellenic began on Jan. 11 with an orientation and went until Sunday, when potential new members (PNMs) received their bids.

Recruitment week is tailored so that PNMs can find the right house for them and for chapters to find the right fit of new members.

The process is that of mutual selection.

PNMs first visited each sorority house on open house day.

The following day was philanthropy round, where each

chapter explains its philanthropy efforts through crafts, projects and speakers.

Sororities then put on skits for the PNMs, highlighting their chapters’ uniqueness and what their sisterhood means to them.

On Sunday morning, PNMs went one last time to the houses, and each chapter shared more personal things about their sorority.

To many sorority girls, recruitment is not just about getting new members, but “one of the best times to bond with you sisters,” junior Alpha Chi Omega

member Devon Ryan said. “It’s the only time we are all together without other obligations like school and work.”

“Recruitment week is extremely stressful, but I was excited the entire time,” freshman and a new member of Tri Delta Kat Kappos said.

“The week is worth it because you get to meet a bunch of people and finally join a sorority.”

This year, the PNMs met in Hughes-Trigg around 3:45 p.m.

Once they received their bids,

SMU will celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with its annual Dream Week, which is sponsored

by SMU’s Office of Student Activities & Multicultural Affairs.

SMU kicked off Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a service day Monday at the SMU service house.

Volunteers were able to visit Children’s Hospital, Genesis Women’s Shelter or Dallas LIFE Foundation.

Junior Vanessa Uzoh volunteered for her third time.

This year she picked up trash around White Rock Lake.

“The most rewarding part about it was being able to get up early in the morning, despite being exhausted, to give back to the community by cleaning up the park,” she said.

Monday gave SMU students the opportunity to use their holiday from classes to help make a difference in the community.

“Many people chose to sleep in or just relax, but it takes real commitment to serve on a day off from work or school,” Uzoh said.

The Dream Week celebration kickoff Tuesday will allow students to hear the words of Dr. King and learn

about his special connection.

The kickoff will be held at SMU in the Hughes-Trigg Student Center Commons from noon to 1:30 p.m.

Tuesday.

The event will also feature speakers Dr. Dennis Simon, associate professor of political science, and Dr. Rick Halperin, director of the Embrey Human Rights Program.

SMU President R. Gerald Turner and student leaders will lead SMU’s annual Unity Walk on Wednesday at noon.

The walk, which begins at the flagpole and continues around Bishop Boulevard, is a demonstration of SMU’s commitment to the work of Dr. King.

The week will also feature a screening of the movie “Standing On My Sisters’ Shoulders” Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the Hughes-Trigg Forum.

There will also be a lecture given by Dr. Dan Hodge on “The Hostile Gospel: Seeking the Theological Sensibilities within Hip Hop Culture.”

Delta Sigma Theta will be presenting a reenactment of Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech on the steps of Dallas Hall starting at 5 p.m.

The week concludes with a Unity Mixer where there will be celebration of the life and legacy of Dr. King Friday at 6 p.m. at the Varsity in Hughes-Trigg.

SMU players celebrate their 28-6 win over Pittsburgh in the BBVA Compass Bowl on Jan. 7, 2012

SMU wins BBVA Compass Bowl BROOKE WILLIAMSON Sports Editor kbwilliamson@smu.edu The SMU Mustangs return to campus champions after rolling over Pittsburg in the 2012 BBVA Compass Bowl 28-6 while Head Coach June Jones captured his 100th collegiate win.

The Mustangs have a lot to be proud of in capturing their second bowl game win in the last three years.

On their first four drives of the game, SMU put up 159

yards averaging eight yards per play. The Mustangs drove up an early 21-0 lead after quarterback J.J. McDermott led the offense completing seven of 10 passes during the first four drives of the game. The most points scored in a quarter all season.

McDermott completed 16 of 26 passes for 239 yards and a touchdown.

He connected with Darius Johnson early in the first for a 50-yard touchdown pass, the longest in the six-year history of the bowl. Johnson had seven

catches for 120 total yards and was named the game’s MVP. McDermott added to the scoreboard with a one-yard touchdown run after an eightplay drive to put the Mustangs up 14-0.

Ja’Gared Davis forced a fumble by Pitt quarterback, Tino Sunseri, allowing Taylor Reed for the Mustangs to recover the ball at Pitt’s 27-yard line.

McDermott found Cole Beasley for a 19-yard pass,

RAHFIN FARUK News Editor rfaruk@smu.edu No presidential candidates seem to be calling it quits in the GOP primary and caucus battle, except for Jon Huntsman who announced his resignation Sunday.

Frontrunner Mitt Romney followed by Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich all believe that they can still secure the Republican presidential nomination for 2012.

After winning the Iowa caucus by eight votes, Romney went on to win the New Hampshire primary by more than 15 percent.

But, within GOP circles Romney is seen as a second option if a better candidate emerges in

the race.

Rick Santorum, who placed second in the Iowa caucus, just received a new endorsement from a group of influential family and religious leaders. As a social conservative, Santorum has great appeal within the Christian Right and other evangelical groups because of his views on gay marriage and abortion.

“We need to get this eventually down to a conservative alternative to Mitt Romney,” Santorum said on Fox News Sunday.

Other candidates have attacked Romney’s record as the governor of Massachusetts.

Romney has changed his views on state rights, gay marriage and abortion within the last decade.

“I voted from Romney in the New Hampshire primary

because I thought he believed in some abortion rights,” said an angry voter on NPR. “But, then I realized he doesn’t anymore.”

Rivals, especially Newt Gingrich, have started to attack Romney’s business record and upper class upbringing. Romney’s time at Bain Capital, a private equity group, could be damaging because a Super PAC in favor of Gingrich has labeled him as a job and company destroyer.

Romney touts that he helped create more than 100,000 jobs at Bain Capital. Organizations like the Washington Post have refuted this number.

But, candidates like Gingrich think that Romney’s overall record will hurt him the most.

REVIEW

Hit and miss at Bliss Raw Cafe and Elixir Bar KATE PETTY Food Editor kpetty@smu.edu

Bliss Raw Cafe and Elixir Bar received a lot of attention after opening in 2009 as the first entirely raw and vegan restaurant in Dallas.

Since then, Bliss continues to be a haven for vegan die-hards and a curious fascination for those just looking for a healthy meal.

The cafe’s menu boasts an array of entirely vegan dishes, each one prepared raw, which means nothing gets cooked above 115 degrees.

Choices include a wide range of cuisines from Italian “Rawsagna” and Mexican “Rawkos” all the way to vegan California rolls, made with asparagus and mushrooms instead of crab.

When first opening the door to Bliss, a light earthy scent combines with citrus walls and hanging greenery.

The experience resembled sitting down to lunch in the middle of a garden.

Though the Friday lunch crowd barely remained by the time I arrived, service was pretty slow.

The only waiter on the clock seemed to be having a rough go at managing things by himself,

After much debate I decided instead to go with the veggie sandwich along with a “blissfully green elixir.”

The $10 sandwich turned out to be something of a disappointment.

Described as a wide array of vegetables on tomato basil bread with a creamy scallion cheese spread, the sandwich was not at all what I imagined.

The bread, due to perfect adherence with their raw and vegan dogma, closer resembled a tortilla.

Only a small dollop of cheese spread flavored the vegetables, which were in such abundance that the sandwich was nearly impossible to hold.

The blissfully green elixir far exceeded my expectations.

A step beyond their traditional chocolate bliss elixir, the blissfully green gets a dose of an “alkalizing SPENCER J EGGERS/The Daily Campus beauty blend” called RevitaPhi Located near the intersection of Preston and Northwest Highway, Bliss and a dose of Spirulina Raw Cafe offers Dallasites a full vegan menu.

one of those unpronounceable ingredients, but came up short every time.

Nothing but cold, creamy smoothness and a deliciously pure chocolate flavor.

Convinced that I simply misordered with the veggie sandwich, I returned to Bliss the following evening. This time I took the advice of the other restaurant patrons.

For round two, I ordered the coconut kale enchiladas and the dessert of the day, a Bliss brownie.

Despite the relatively steep $14 entree, the enchiladas were served in a rather small portion. Only three miniaturized rolls comprised the entire entree.

However, for the most part the dish tasted pretty decent.

Marinated kale tossed with “nacho cheese” filled three tiny coconut tortillas that lent a distinctly sweet aftertaste.

The pico de gallo and salsa verde that topped the enchiladas lacked any spice which, despite the general flavor being acceptable, prevented the dish from tapping into its Mexican influences.

I concluded my meal with another chocolate concoction, the Bliss brownie, also raw and made mostly of walnuts. The waiter set before me an impressive plate.

The rich dark brownie, dripping with a thick ganache and sprinkled with fresh berries and walnuts, looked like a dream. Unfortunately the flavor and consistency came up short.

Perhaps my limited exposure to raw food hindered my experience, but I couldn’t get past the gluey texture or the chalky flavor.

If you’re in search of a light meal to shake loose some toxins, Bliss can certainly satisfy.

Just don’t be misled by the names of the dishes — the items resemble their namesakes only in presentation.

Additionally, for such meager portions, the prices are pretty steep.

But if you adhere to the raw or vegan lifestyle, you know not many restaurants cater to raw veganism. Bliss can be counted on to meet your needs. Beyond that, Bliss plans to expand their elixir menu with a juice bar that is sure to impress.

Students audition for “So You Think You Can Dance” CASSANDRA ROBINSON A&E Editor cassandrar@smu.edu

Freezing Dallas temperatures didn’t hold dancers back from their crucial auditions on Friday.

Ballerinas, break dancers and poppers started lining up on the steps of SMU’s McFarlin Memorial Auditorium at 5 a.m. for Fox’s “So You Think You Can Dance” competition and television program.

Dancers fought for a spot on the show’s ninth season with auditions beginning Friday lasting until Sunday.

This is the third year that SMU has hosted the show’s regional audition.

SMU senior Leah Mitchell decided it was finally her year to strut her stuff.

The Meadows School of the Arts dance major hoped to make it to the show’s main stage in Los Angeles by using her charisma and technique.

“It doesn’t feel like it’s 30 degrees when my body is all fired up for the judges and especially the TV cameras,” Mitchell said.

Other dancers came out to SMU’s Boulevard to enjoy the experience and pick up some moves from other talented dancers.

Earl Manuel, dancer and model from Buffalo, N.Y., admitted he’s not as strong of a dancer as many of the contestants.

However, he is determined to try.

“My hopes aren’t high, but I’m doing this to show my ambition, and as a tribute to my family,” Manuel said.

A few of the “So You Think

You Can Dance” All-Stars and producers were the only ones making cuts for Friday’s first day of the competition, according to audition dancer Kirsten Hamm.

The season eight All-Stars include dancers such as Pasha Kovalev and Melody Lacayanga.

These All-Stars have made it to the elite Top 20 in the “So You Think You Can Dance” competition in the past.

The main judges from “So You Think You Can Dance” make the final cuts on what talent deserves to head to Las Vegas.

This is the last destination and elimination round before the final Top 20 group competes live in Los Angeles.

SMU senior dance major Jamal White made a name for himself when he auditioned for season six.

A pool of contestants waiting to audition for “So You Think You Can Dance?” listen to past seasons’ finalists Robert Roldan and Courtney Galiano share their own experiences Friday morning in McFarlin Auditorium.

He was one of the lucky dancers to be awarded a plane ticket to Las Vegas.

White auditioned in his hometown of Atlanta, and made it to Las Vegas after dancing his solo and creating some unique and enticing improv in front of the show’s famous judges, Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy.

“By the time I made it to Las Vegas, I had already danced for my life, but the judges wanted more,” White said.

White was impressed by the level of technique and quality that all of the competitors brought.

However, unlike SMU’s Meadows School of the Arts audition process, he felt that a large part of the “So You Think You Can Dance” elimination was based off your camera friendly personality.

“Producers and judges got picky about camera-ready people when the competition came down to the wire in Las Vegas. It was about 60 percent personality and 40 percent dance by this point. Of course the

dancers who made it to the Top 20 were very talented, but I saw a lot of amazing dancers get cut as well,” White said.

Overall, White said he appreciated what “So You Think You Can Dance” offered him in regards to experience and exposure.

White will be traveling with a contemporary ballet company, Rock the Ballet, this spring.

He will dance under American choreographer and Artistic Director Rasta Thomas.

White will travel to India, Portugal and Russia while on tour.

Another SMU student made an impact on the ninth season’s auditions at Mcfarlin Memorial Auditorium.

Sophomore dance major Kirsten Hamm reached the final day of judging on Sunday to dance her contemporary solo.

“Dancers only get a few minutes to audition for the judges, which is difficult when you are waiting around all day,” Hamm said.

“There is a lot of waiting,

but I have to stay focused and warm.”

Hamm plans on having a career in contemporary dance choreography.

She isn’t sure what “So You think You Can Dance” will bring to her career, but she’s thankful SMU hosted the auditions and opened doors of opportunity for her.

SMU dancers also had competition outside of University Park to worry about.

Amanda Densmore, 20, from Denton, Texas, came to SMU for another shot, after she was cut last season.

“I have been a huge fan of “So You Think You Can Dance” since I was 14,” Densmore said.

“This is my second chance and I’m giving it all I got.”

ROMNEY: GOP starts to settle admist other candidates

Continued from Page 1

“I think it’s very hard for him to differentiate RomneyCare from ObamaCare. It’s very hard to differentiate appointing liberal judges which he did when he was the governor of Massachusetts,” Gingrich said to Florida supporters.

“I mean, these are things that are going to come up and I think for the conservative movement it makes it more difficult frankly.”

Members of the GOP are concerned that Gingrich and Santorum are doing the work for President Barack Obama.

But, Gingrich believes that it’s fair to raise questions about the frontrunner in the primary process to avoid problems in the actual presidential race.

“Gingrich is trying to…cast in the minds of the viewing public the idea that he is the ideal debater to

go up against President Obama,” said Ben Voth, chairman of the communications studies division, in an interview with USA Today.

As each candidate looks forward to the South Carolina primary, which could be a final effort from multiple campaigns, Mitt Romney looks to become the GOP favorite after South Carolina.

New rules shorten recruitment TASHIKA VARMA Assignments Desk Editor tvarma@smu.edu The Interfraternity Council (IFC) and Panhellenic Council both held their formal recruitments last week.

However, this year, both organizations’ recruitments went through a few changes.

Last semester, IFC established a new rule geared toward freshmen boys.

The rule did not allow freshmen males to attend any registered bus parties or events for the first five weeks of school between Aug. 22 and Sept. 30.

To be eligible for recruitment, boys cannot have more than two alcohol violations in their first semester. IFC’s goal was to decrease the number of AVs to make more boys eligible for rush.

J.D. Mahaffey, a freshmen who rushed, compares the rules from previous years.

“I felt like I did not have the best opportunity in the previous fall semester to get to know all 10 fraternity chapters at SMU. The reason for this being that IFC did not allow “bus parties”

to freshmen males the first six weeks of school,” Mahaffey said. “However, the week was a success and everyone I spoke with is happy in their new houses with their new brothers.”

This also helped to get more guys interested in rush, since the policy required fraternity houses to be more creative.

Many houses held more inhouse activities, which increased interaction and exposure to the different fraternity houses and members.

A combination of the new policy along with active advertising and emailing has increased recruitment numbers this year.

This year, IFC has “307 potential new members eligible for and going through recruitment, which is up from 234 males last year,” Brian Rose, IFC president, said.

These numbers have not taken into account the open recruitment numbers, which can range from 15 to 20 more boys.

Finals numbers will be released this week.

As opposed to IFC, Panhellenic’s recruitment change took place during rush week itself. This year, recruitment was

cut short by two days.

“Shorter recruitment is better because it’s a lot less stress,” Sophomore Chi-Omega member Anna Baxter said. “It’s a lot more fun for us because we get to find out faster who our new pledge class is.”

Last year, all the potential new members (PNMs) visited the eight sorority houses over two days.

This year, Panhellenic combined the days, and PNMs visited all eight houses on one day, known as open house day.

Preference round, which is the final opportunity for PNMs to interact with the chapters before bid night, was moved to the same day as bid day, where a PNM will meet her new sisters.

This year, PNMs started preference round at 8 a.m. and moved onto bid day at 3:45 p.m.

“I like the shorter recruitment better because it’s more exciting,” incoming Alpha Chi Omega President Devin Ryan said.

“We just talked to the PNMs this morning and now they’re running to the house.”

Numbers for Panhellenic Council recruitment have not yet been released.

RUSH: Fraternities, sororities welcome new pledge classes

Continued from Page 1

PNMs took part in the annual bid day run, where some run and some walk from Hughes-Trigg down Airline and to their new sorority house.

Fraternities, who had their bid day the night before, gather 20 minutes before the bid day run along the sidewalks and cheer on the new members to their respective houses.

“It’s been a lot of fun so far. It’s been a long week, but I’m happy on where I ended up,” James Stafford, a new member of Beta Theta Pi, said.

“Now I’m ready to cheer on the girls on their run with my new brothers.”

When the girls began running, the fraternity boys cheered them

on, while the sororities welcomed them with open arms, gifts and even some tears of happiness.

There were also additional voices in the crowds.These were the voices of mothers, fathers and siblings lining the streets as well.

Ellen Smith, a Tri Delta alumna, came to support her daughter joining a sorority. “It’s amazing to be here at this place at this time with my own daughter,” Smith said.

Ann Horner, mother of an SMU student, came out to campus to watch her daughter run to her new sorority. Horner is an Alpha Xi Delta.

“I’m really excited my daughter decided to rush,” Horner said.

“Being a part of a sorority was such a great experience for me in college.

You make the best friends in your

life within your sisterhood.”

“Being a part of a sorority adds an entire layer of depth to your college experience,” Betsey Mowery, a Tri Delta alumna, said.

Her daughter, Sarah Mowery, pledged Kappa Kappa Gamma.

New members spent the day, and some even the night, celebrating with their new sisters.

“Bid day is so exciting. It’s like Christmas but better. It’s the best Christmas present I’ve ever gotten,” Kappos said.

Information versus inundation AKBAR IQBAL akbari@smu.edu

Human beings are truly intriguing creatures. History has shown that as a race we are capable of performing acts that demonstrate altruism in its purest of forms and acts that cause unimaginable pain and destruction. It is a consequence of our nature that will never subside and always have a very large impact on not just our future as a species, but the entire planet as a whole. A growing population coupled with limited space has seen the world become victim to a number of malaises of varying natures. Social conflicts, epidemics, natural and man-made disasters are but a handful of worrying events that are continuous and often occur in tandem. While such events lead to ramifications that are often obvious for those stuck in their midst, their effect may go unnoticed on those who continue to live their daily lives unaffected.

Even though, the elderly may often look back on days gone by and reminisce about how simple and great life was when they were young, actual events may contradict them. In fact, it can be argued that history has repeated itself with similar events and issues over a number of decades.

For instance, while generations gone by may not have had to deal with the same kind of exposure to terrible diseases that are currently rampant such as HIV and bird-flu, many of their generation succumbed to equally debilitating illnesses in the form of polio and small-pox. Political conflict too, has continued in similar vein.

One must take into account the two-world wars when comparing destruction across recent and past eras.

It is possible that things seem better the further we roll years back because people did not have the kind of access to information that exists nowadays. Technology has allowed us to remain up to speed with every single development in almost every sphere of life.

While it is important to remain informed and aware of what is going on around us, we run the risk of becoming inundated with knowledge, much of which is far from pleasant. Combined with the inevitable daily stresses that every person constantly faces, being privy to the pain of others or amount of turmoil in the world can be quite overwhelming.

Thus, it is not hard to understand why it has been found that stress and anxiety levels have been rising sharply in the United States. No matter how much people detach themselves from what they read, hear or see, it is bound to affect them on some level. We live in a world where technology has made it possible for what is out of sight to no longer just remain out of mind. Rather, it can have a profound effect on us.

It is important to find a balance between remaining well-informed and becoming bogged down by the volume of distressful news events.

Despite there being much wrong with the world today, I believe there is more good than bad even if we do not always get to see it.

It is interesting to note that the number of hits the word “love” receives on the search engine Google far exceeds those for the word “fear.” While this may not mean much to some, many would choose to believe that it actually sums human nature up quite neatly.

Well it is that time of year again. The time of the year when Tory Burch becomes that much richer and the cargo shorts go into the bonfire. The time of the year when all of the so-inclined students of Southern Methodist University come back to school one week early for rush.

Rush is an SMU tradition, for both better and worse. The storied houses of Sorority Row echo with the cheers of the sororities.

The brick buildings that line SMU Boulevard bustle with the boyish bravado of the initiates.

There is a spirit of hope and excitement that fills a cold January week every year.

There are few things that bring students back to school early.

Although I am looking forward to seeing friends again, I still hesitate when I think about all of the

impending exams and papers. All of this anticipation is cast aside for the most important date in the fraternity and sorority calendar, Rush Week. Rush Week is where students audition for their social standing for the next three and a half years. They all hope for the “top-tier,” whether fraternity or sorority. It is a little absurd that admittance into a certain Sorority or Fraternity decides how a person will be viewed in University life, but that is the significance of Rush Week. Everyone puts their best face on so that they can be safe.

Even the official SMU website has recommendations for looking your best, easily searchable advice to dressing well.

Southern Methodist University reports that 41 percent of our undergraduates participate in the fraternity and sorority community.

If this were true, it would be a significant group, but a minority one. However, this number is

misleading, mostly because it includes the first semester freshmen, excuse me, first-years.

This group, which is the largest in the school’s history, presents a problem in presenting the true statistic. If the freshman class were excluded from this number, we would see the more factual number. I think it is safe to say the true percentage of fraternity and sorority members is much higher than reported. It seems the SMU administration wants to downplay the importance of Greek life on campus. At the same time the administration must come to terms with the fact that Greek life is everywhere and important. Nowhere is this clearer than Rush Week.

I am going to qualify that last paragraph. Certainly there are benefits to the Greek community and they are for another article.

But, Rush Week highlights the struggle the administration has

with the fraternity and sorority communities. Our Greek life is one of the biggest draws to Southern Methodist. We have a rich and storied tradition of a strong Greek community and that has been excellent for the school.

At the same time though, the school is often fighting to keep that community under control.

As Rush Week draws to a close and bids are handed out, there is going to be a whole range of emotions. Some will delight in the chapter they desired and some will dismay in their denial. Soon the hyper-allegiance will slightly fade and the campus will return to normal, but this week will retain its significance. As long as social life goes through Greek life, Rush Week will still be the most important time of the year.

New year, new you, old resolutions?

BRANDON BUB Opinion Editor bbub@smu.edu

One of the easiest ways for me to tell that it’s January is by watching TV. Whenever the commercials come on I invariably see ads for two things: gym memberships and Weight Watchers.

It’s pretty easy to understand why you see a preponderance of commercials like these throughout the month.

With each new year, people come up with their resolutions about how to better themselves and their lives. It’s not surprising that one such way that people try to accomplish that goal is by getting back into shape.

What I think is even more entertaining is if you actually go to a gym around this time of year. You’ll see all sorts of people

at the beginning of the month using almost all of the workout equipment. Then, the next week the gym will be slightly less crowded.

And gradually with each passing week the number will dwindle until the gym is mostly left with the same members it’s always had.

Unfortunately, a lot of people’s excitement about their New Year’s resolutions doesn’t necessarily correspond with their tenacity.

I’ve always wondered why we pick New Year’s to try to make bold changes in our lives. When you think about it, the beginning of our calendar year really is such an arbitrary date. You could just as easily change the way you live at any other time of the year and still achieve the same end result. But I suppose there is something nice about the idea of beginning anew.

However, what I really don’t

like about New Year’s resolutions is that most of the resolutions themselves aren’t all that new.

A lot of us end up having the same resolutions year after year.

Lose weight, get in shape, quit smoking, study more, etc. That’s not to say that such goals aren’t worthy; indeed, I think any possible positive change that’s realistic enough for you to achieve is worth pursuing. And I’d be a hypocrite for condemning people for having resolutions like these because one change I recently decided in my life this year is to go vegetarian.

But if we’re going to come up with a resolution, why not making it something more resolute? I feel like it can be fun and all the more rewarding to come up with a creative New Year’s resolution. In fact, there’s one possible resolution that I’ve been considering myself

in the past few weeks. We often say that you “learn something new every day,” but I’ve never heard of anyone really testing that theory.

So why not actually make that a part of your life? Each day, make sure that you learn something new, be it tying a bowtie, changing a tire, deriving an equation or anything else you consider worthy of learning.

By no means is a goal like this simple, but the more challenging the resolution, the greater the payoff in the end.

If you’re resolved to do something new with your life this year, I’d encourage you to consider this goal. You’d be surprised by just how much you can learn.

Read a book. Find your purpose.

ADRIANA MARTINEZ adrianam@smu.edu

One of my first exclamations at the beginning of the December break was, “Finally, I can choose what I read!” (N.B. This is not to say that I dislike my assigned readings; however, there is some pleasure to be taken in the liberty to employ one’s time with selfelected reading choices.) Yet, with this great freedom, comes great responsibility.

At the risk of revealing my inner nerdiness, I will explain why I utter such a seemingly exaggerated phrase. For me, reading is not simply a pastime to escape the routine of quotidian activities.

Rather, a book allows one to delve into an entirely different time and place, surrounded by foreign and fascinating personalities. The complexities of the plot and the character development envelop me, encouraging understanding of a previously unknown world.

The reading choices I made for this break might seem peculiar. I indulged in Madeleine Albright’s autobiography, “Madam Secretary:

A Memoir,” and Ayn Rand’s seminal tome, “Atlas Shrugged.”

Both had been on my reading list for years, for obviously very different reasons. Yet, as chance would have it, I found insightful and similar lessons within the two very different stories.

I would like to expound on one in particular. In the four years that Madeleine Albright served as Secretary of State to President Bill Clinton, she describes painstaking, arduous diplomatic missions that required not only creative thinking and ingenuity, but also intense focus and perpetual concentration.

Nearly every hour of every day, she and her team attempted to solve the world’s most challenging and complex conflicts. Her decisions affected millions of lives, yet often were taken in moments. The pressure was unrelenting.

In Rand’s work, one character, Hank Rearden, reminisces on the effects of his own work -- “He was tired. It was as if he had run a race against his own body, and all the exhaustion of years, which he had refused to acknowledge, had caught him at once and flattened

him against the desk top. He felt nothing, except the desire not to move. He did not have the strength to feel – not even to suffer. He had burned everything there was to burn within him; he had scattered so many sparks to start so many things…”

The intensity is palpable in Rand’s description. The inhumane demands that both Albright and Rearden endured for their work seem almost nonsensical. Why would one put oneself through this sort of self-inflicted suffering?

What motivates this behavior?

As I pondered this, I realized that Albright and Rearden shared a sense of mission. There was an intrinsic worth in the work they did and an extrinsic value in the end goal. These gave meaning to the otherwise nonsensical, remorseless demands of their work.

Proving this, on the page following the quote above, Rearden concludes, “Whatever it was, he thought, whatever the strain and the agony, they were worth it, because they made him reach this day…”

The motivation of creative

work (literally creating something new, whether it be an idea, a technological advancement, a compromise, or a process) is profoundly meaningful.

It becomes the reason to wake up before the sun rises, or never even make it to bed; it inspires daring perseverance; it spurs innovation and change. Not surprisingly, every great figure in history has shared this quality – a dogged dedication to a cause greater than him or her.

As a new semester begins (for me the last) this is a lesson that I will strive to remember. If such passion does not drive my own endeavors, then changing the world is a verifiable impossibility.

So, consider: what drives you?

For what cause would you do or give anything? To pursue it may be the most painful risk you take, but to refuse it would assure dissatisfaction. So, take the risk and strive for greatness.

COMPASS BOWL: SMU wins second bowl game in three years Continued from page 1

setting up a two-yard run

by Rishad Wimbley. Wimbley added to his stats in the third quarter when he added a oneyard touchdown run.

While the offense led the way in the first quarter, the rest of the game they gained only 141 yards averaging a little over three yards per play.

The second quarter allowed Pitt to gain three points with a field goal making the score 21-3.

Pitt drove down the field from their own 16-yard line into the red zone late in the third quarter.

On third down from the SMU five-yard line Sunseri hit tailback Isaac Bennett, allowing SMU linebacker Stephon Sanders an interception.

The offense hit cruise control adding only one additional touchdown after the first quarter, but the defense continued to shut down Pitt’s offense allowing one field goal in the second half.

This also allowed for six sacks on quarterback Tino Sunseri.

The Mustangs did not leave

the BBVA Compass Bowl without battle wounds.

SMU running back Jared Williams, freshman, was taken off the field with his leg in brace during the fourth quarter with a probable broken leg.

Williams had 11 carries for 40 yards before the injury.

Pitt was held to just 10 yards of total rushing and 205 total yards with negative yardage on four drives and forced to punt seven times.

“I am really proud of the defense,” said Head Coach June Jones.

“Really the defense has been that way all year. They’ve been the reason we’ve won eight games.”

SMU finished the season 8-5, tying the schools best record in 1984.

In addition to the 100th collegiate career win for coach Jones, SMU improved to 6-7-1 all time in bowl games.

Leigh Steinberg’s bankruptcy hits June Jones MERECEDES OWENS Sports Editor mmowens@smu.edu After a blow up over Arizona State’s administration backing out of a head coaching deal with June Jones, Leigh Steinberg is now dealing with another issue.

Bankruptcy.

At 62 years old, the ‘reallife’ Jerry Maguire sports agent finds himself in a spaghetti bowl of debt exceeding more than $3.1 million, according to AP reports.

Steinberg filed for personalbankruptcy protection Wednesday.

Who does Steinberg owe money to?

Not just creditors, tax collectors and landlords.

Steinberg’s bankruptcy trouble is also due in part to a debt of $450,000 to former NFL talent Chad Morton as well as a whopping $90,000 debt to long-time client and SMU head football coach June Jones, according to AP reports.

In December, Steinberg’s

biggest problems were based on a last-minute break in a deal involving Jones and the Sun Devils.

While the agent lashed out on ASU via Twitter, Jones assured SMU that his move to ASU was not meant to leave the university feeling jaded.

According to Steinberg’s Twitter feed, @SteinbergSports, the agent stated, “Just had one of the most bizarre endings to a set of productive discussions to bring a client to a new situation.”

Steinberg continued with his statements about the deal by saying, “Everything was set, few tweaks left, and the principal decision maker yanks the deal with no real explanation.”

The Sun Devils had no comment regarding Steinberg’s statements.

ESPN reported that despite the fall out with ASU, Jones was appreciative of the SMU community and their understanding of the situation.

“I can’t tell you how great they’ve been throughout all this.

They understand completely

that this is a business,” Jones said.“Everybody was aware. I was open and honest with them about everything.”

While Steinberg’s fall out with the Arizona State administration seemed a big deal at the time, it is now the least of his concerns.

Through the years, Steinberg, the real-life inspiration for Tom Cruise’s film Jerry Maguire, has

After his innovative role as a sports agent field in the mid-’80s’90s, Steinberg was estimated to have a net worth of $100 million, according to AP reports.

However, due to rehab checkins and numerous arrests for alcohol-related offenses, his life began to spiral downhill 10 years ago.
