Navigating neutrinos
Professor studies most elusive particle in the universe Lauren Aguirre Online Editor lcaguirre@smu.edu
Thomas Coan, an associate professor in the SMU Department of Physics, is working with over 200 scientists from around the world to study one of the universe’s most elusive particles — the neutrino. Neutrinos are one of the most abundant particles in the universe, but are hard to detect because they rarely interact with other particles. The NuMI Off-Axis electron neutrino Appearance, or NOvA, experiment may explain the makeup of the universe. “Neutrinos play a key role in explaining why anti-matter still exists,” Coan said. Anti-matter are particles that have the same mass as ordinary matter people are familiar with, but anti-matter has opposite charges. When matter and anti-matter collide, they annihilate each other. According to the NOvA experiment website, studying neutrinos can help explain why the universe has more matter than anti-matter. Because humans are made of regular matter, understanding the balance between these two particles can explain why humans exist. “By understanding these fundamental questions we can get down to the fundamental levels of how the universe works,” said Brian Rebel, a staff scientist at Fermilab, the organization that is managing NOvA.

Professor Thomas Coan
Coan started working at SMU in 1994 and joined the NOvA collaboration in 2005. “The project was just a proposal at that stage,” Coan said. “I helped develop some diagnostic instrumentation, which turned out not to be used because of a competing group.” Designing, funding and implementing an experiment is a process that takes time. Details of the design change as the experiment is developed. Eventually, the design becomes clear and solid, and construction can begin, Coan said.
Construction of NOvA began two years ago, and is projected to be completed early this summer. NOvA’s design spans over 500 miles. Fermilab’s accelerator complex in Illinois produces an intense neutrino beam which is sent through the earth to Ash River, Minn., where a neutrino detector is being constructed. The construction, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, will cost around $270 million. NOvA aims to answer questions about the properties of neutrinos. Neutrinos come in three kinds, or flavors: electron, muon and tau. Neutrinos shift from one flavor to another through interaction with other particles. NOvA examines how neutrinos change from the muon flavor to the electron flavor. The detector under construction
in Minnesota will weigh around 140,000 tons. “The probability of the neutrinos interacting is very small,” Rebel said. “We have to make a large detector that has a lot of mass so that they can have plenty of atoms to interact with.” By studying these interactions, scientists can observe the neutrinos changing from one flavor to another. According to the NOvA website, this interaction may help explain the balance of matter and anti-matter in the universe. Once construction of the detector is complete, the NOvA experiment will run for about 10 years. “It’s all about deferred gratification,” Coan said. It’s hard to wait because “you just want to know the answer,” he said.
Finding an apartment near campus in Dallas might be less of a hassle for students in the coming years. In a new report, by commercial real estate firm Jones Lang LaSalle, the Dallas-Fort Worth area is forecasted to be the country’s top apartment leasing market over the next three years. “They have to build to keep up with the people who are coming in,” Ebby Halliday Apartment relator Paula Hightower said. North Texas has about 25,000 apartments currently under construction, more than any other major metropolitan market in the U.S. Apartment leasing is projected to total almost 70,000 units through 2017, the researchers said. Greystar, an apartment firm, is planning to build 1,674 in Dallas. There are concerns about the current rate of apartment construction as researchers predict that new supply in the DFW area won’t keep up with increasing renter demand. “It’s not because [apartment renters] can’t afford a home,” Hightower said. “It’s a lifestyle choice for people living in apartments.” The walk-and-go and maintenance-free options of the apartment life is appealing to more people. Most apartments that are being built are “luxury style.” “When they invest to build apartments they make sure they have all the amenities plus something else to make it different,” Hightower said. Last year, Ebby Halliday had one of its most profitable years and is expecting to do even better this year. Dallas is ranked number four in the 2014 Forbes America’s Fastest Growing Cities list. The city is known for its business-centric atmosphere. Areas like Uptown, Deep Ellum, Trinity Groves and the Arts District are expanding commercially, culturally and residentially. “Our business is already booming.” Hightower said. Just down the street from SMU, the Landmark at Lovers Apartments are being built. The
urban luxury apartments are marketed to 25 to 45-year-olds, although there are prospective residents outside that age range, according to Landmark at Lovers’ assistant manager Claire Scheihing. “We’ve had some SMU students look into leasing,” Scheihing said. Junior Kelsey Cordutsky, a marketing and creative advertising major from Denver, is looking for apartments for the first time in Dallas. “It been a different kind of search,” Cordutsky said. “I’ve always had the comfort of knowing I have a place on campus.” She has been a RA for the past two years. Figuring out how many roommates, whether renting a house is a better option and price are some of the things she is considering. “There have been a lot of options,” Cordutsky said. “Living in Dallas can be pricey.” A 588-square-foot onebedroom/bathroom apartment at Landmark at Lovers Apartments is a little over $1,200 a month. BLVD, a popular option for SMU students, starts at $950 a month. “Price really depends on the neighborhood,” Hightower said. Hightower researches properties before presenting an average of five apartment options to her clients. It usually takes her clients about four hours to make a decision. Although apartment vacancy rates are 1 percent higher in the DFW area, U.S. apartment vacancies are at a 10-year low. The Landmark at Lovers Apartments is currently at 2.9 percent occupancy and the leasing rate is much higher. The complex will be completed in March 2014 with 336 units. The apartments are one of The Carbon Companies’ properties. Carbon Companies is a multidisciplinary team that in-houses construction, design, development and management. Although they are based in Dallas, Landmark at Lovers is the first Dallas property for the company. “They’re building a flagship to represent themselves,” Scheihing said. “It’s a fabulous property to show what they’re capable of and their style.”

Current SMU juniors plan to tie the knot this summer Catherine Stacke Contributing Writer cstacke@smu.edu

Amanda Arismendi and Fiance Michael Pittman
“It’s all about purpose,” SMU junior Michael Pittman said. “I knew that the next girl I got serious with, I wanted to marry.” Just about one year after he first met Amanda Arismendi in an Art of Acting class at SMU, they became engaged to be married this coming June. Upon sitting down with the couple, their affection for one another is abundantly clear. Some would say that getting engaged at the young age of 20 is risky or irresponsible, but for he and Arismendi, it felt just right. “I was upfront in my intentions
in our relationship from the very beginning,” Pittman said. The couple credits their faith with bringing, and keeping, them together. They agree that God has played the biggest role in their union. “We talked about marriage before we even started officially dating,” Arismendi said. “We both had a clear idea of what we were looking for in this relationship, and after almost a year of dating, marriage seemed like the natural next step.” The duo has a very strong sense of self, which has carried over into their wedding planning process. As tuition paying college students, Michael and Amanda are planning their June 21 wedding in the most economical
way possible. Their strict “no alcohol” policy some college students might find archaic, however for them, it was an unnecessary addition to their ceremony. The soon to be newlyweds also plan on reaching out to those close to them for an extra hand in the planning process. “It helps to have such a large family,” Pittman said. “Someone always knows someone who can help out, whether it be with the cake, flowers or whatever.” For being so young, these two certainly have “purpose.” Pittman and Arismendi’s relationship has not only taken SMU by storm, but the world. Pittman regularly blogs about his experience as an engaged
college student, and the blog has had over 800,000 hits and has been viewed by people in over 200 different countries. Arismendi too, has started a blog, her first post bears the title “Amanda, in Love.” In addition, the couple also regularly posts videos on YouTube offering relationship advice to others. “They have a deep passion to give hope and encouragements to others in relationships, something I know will only continue to get even stronger after they get married,” said Tyler Scott, a close friend of the couple. Post-marriage, the Pittmans will live in apartment style dorms on campus together, before graduating next May.

AWARDS
POLITICS
Academy bored
ZAIN HAIDAR Contributing Writer zhaidar@smu.edu Stephen Colbert said it best at the Emmys. “Kneel before your God, Babylon!” The Oscar is the shiny, bald (albeit muscular) Buddha of Hollywood, and unfortunately, like other golden idols, it means nothing. Coming up on the 86th Academy Awards March 2 (with Ellen Degeneres hosting), isn’t it time we revisit the classic formula? Let’s face it, the Oscars are a circle jerk designed to accomplish one thing (besides getting Perez Hilton giddy): make rich people in black suits feel good about themselves for skills that would mean nothing in a survival scenario. Gary Oldman’s never won an
Oscar. Leonardo DiCaprio has never won an Oscar. Christopher Plummer didn’t win an Oscar until 2009. Did nobody in the Academy watch “The Sound of Music?” Did the dulcet tones not pierce your soul and melt your heart? Shame on you! The Oscars are essentially an echo chamber for what Hollywood wants to hear. That movie about a quadriplegic pianist who beats the odds and wins a basketball championship with his blind schnauzer? Nominated. That pining foreign language film about child soldiers without ears? Nominated. Tom Hanks? Nominated. Should our biggest award ceremony have a formula? Aren’t formulas boring? Let’s mix things up a little. Throw out the cue cards and teleprompters. Toss some tigers into the audience – maybe some 12-year-olds with laser pointers. And when the hell are we going to see Adrian Brody kissing women out of his league again? Why am I really this angry? I’m pissed off for Leo. If he gets snubbed again this year, I don’t know if my heart will go on.

LGBT
A step in the right direction LAUREN AGUIRRE Online Editor lcaguirre@smu.edu On Wednesday, a Texas federal judge from the U.S. District Court in San Antonio, Texas, ruled the Texas ban on gay marriage unconstitutional. This ruling strikes down a 2005 amendment to the Texas constitution that defines marriage as “the union of one man and one woman.” The ban will stay in place until a higher court considers the case. I see this case going all the way to the Supreme Court. Considering that the Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act it’s safe to say that it will uphold Garcia’s decision. Then, gay marriage will be legal in Texas. Finally. Meanwhile, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a defendant in the case, issued a statement against the ruling. He said, “Texans spoke loud and clear by overwhelmingly voting to define marriage as a union between a man and a woman in our Constitution, and it is not the role of the federal government to overturn the will of our citizens.” Banning gay marriage through any legal avenue, even with a majority vote, is ridiculous. No one can tell anyone else how to live their lives or who to they should love, and it shouldn’t be the government’s place to do so. The Republican party wants
government out of people’s lives except where marriage equality is concerned. How does controlling who other people can marry benefit you in any way? There is no rational argument for banning gay marriage. The so-called distinction between heterosexual couples and homosexual couples is completely arbitrary. Every couple is made up of two people who love each other. What their sex is shouldn’t matter. If the state and national government can pass laws that restrict people’s freedoms, then “the land of the free” is a lie. Instead of protecting citizen’s rights, we seem to be free to restrict them. Banning gay marriage is an entirely selfish notion. A Texan is not affected by someone else’s life choices, so why should she be able to limit the choices other people have? Opposing the legalization of gay marriage is like attempting to veto someone else’s dessert order in a restaurant. It’s preposterous. Adding it as a tenant of a party platform is even more ridiculous. It’s not out of the realm of possibility that a person can be gay and conservative. By opposing marriage equality, Republicans are pushing people and votes they may need away from their party. This fight against marriage equality is helping no one. Thankfully, my generation seems to agree with me on this point. I look forward to a future where anyone can marry whomever they want, regardless of their sexual orientation. Those who oppose this future just need to get over themselves. Aguirre is a sophomore majoring in journalism.

The state of Texas is a strange case of political warfare in the last couple of elections. While the big cities in the Lone Star State tend to lean more to the left, urban areas give the GOP overwhelming support, both financially and at the polls. Some of that might be due to traditional values, but this year’s elections for the head of the state and congress might show the simple case of not having good options representing Democrats. Houston-native Kesha Rogers has taken an eight percent lead over her closest competitor
democratic party wants to see hold a seat in the senate, as seen by Steve Brown, chairman of the Fort Bend Democratic Party’s quote last year, stating, “If I can figure out what the silver bullet is to make sure that she is not on my slate after May, then I’ll definitely do that.” As troublesome as Rogers appears to be, her rival for the vote falls to David Alameel. The wealthy dentist from Dallas, Alameel is seen as a bit of a Benedict Arnold in his own right, having bankrolled several Republicans in their pursuit of office, including Governor Rick Perry, and even the man he hopes to upset this fall, Cornyn. These two candidates alone possess 62 percent of the total poll given to 1,200 registered voters online, but that’s the same number Cornyn possess by himself in the same study. The Democratic party will have to unify and attempt to elect
a serious underdog, like Maxey Scherr whose poll numbers set her at a distant third place with just 15 percent. Scherr is a native of El Paso, Texas, and is seen as the most progressive candidate, but suffers from lack of funding and name appeal. She will have her hands full with the two lead dogs at the moment, but if any Democrat has a legitimate chance to unseat Cornyn, this one would make the most logical sense. The midterm elections are still a while away, but the chance that the Democrats could choose a candidate that isn’t the best is very apparent. If President Obama hopes to see the Senate remain blue, he will have to hope for a major upset in a state that doesn’t look like a good bet. Costa is a senior majoring in journalism.

in the Democratic primary for the Senate seat held by GOP member John Cornyn, according to a recent poll taken by the Univeristy of Texas/ The Texas Tribune. The shocking trait about Rogers is her view of the current president of the United States, whom she’s compared with Adolf Hitler by showing pictures of President Obama with Hitler’s iconic mustache. She has also compared the Affordable Care Act with the genocidal policies of Nazis in the 1930s. If that wasn’t enough to paint a picture of the woman, she also runs on a platform of raising NASA’s funding for the purpose of building a defense network against incoming asteroids and believes the United States should begin to colonize Mars to prevent “mass extinction of the human species.” Rogers is clearly not the representative the fragile

When our call to vote in our fifth-annual “Best of SMU & the Park Cities/Dallas” poll attracted more than 4,800 votes, we knew we had 1) either finally struck a chord with the SMU community in our efforts to define the best aspects of life on the Hilltop, or 2) our voting process had been severely compromised through ballot-box stuffing attempts in a few categories. Unfortunately, in reviewing the voting record, the latter was clearly the case.

SMU Main Stage reenacts historic ‘Richard III’ with a modern twist MEREDITH CAREY Contributing Writer mbcarey@smu.edu
Ryan Miller/ the Daily Campus
SMU point guard Nic Moore has 4.6 assists per game for the Mustangs during the 2013-14 season.
“Richard III” ranks up there with the most mischievous and nefarious villains of history and literature and he’s made his way to the Greer Garson Theatre. The first production of the 2014 season, Shakespeare’s telling of Richard III’s short-lived but dramatic reign of England in 1483, brought out the best in SMU graduate and undergraduate actors in Wednesday’s opening night. Though the actors started off quietly, the show only grew stronger and stronger as the cast became more comfortable with their first, full live audience. This was no ordinary reenactment of Shakespeare’s historical play, but rather a conglomeration of costumes, voices and props that brought the script into the 21st century. The casts’ lines were true to the play, but their delivery, actions and mannerisms begged to differ. With a butt slap here and a fist bump there, the production
SMU set to take on UCF BILLY EMBODY Sports Staff Writer wembody@smu.edu After earning the team’s biggest win of the season Sunday against The University of Connecticut, SMU will return to action Saturday in Moody Coliseum to play Central Florida at 3 p.m. UCF is coming off their second win in 13 games, but they do have Isaiah Sykes, one of the American Athletic Conference’s top guards, who didn’t play in SMU’s 58-46 win over UCF earlier this season. “Every game in the conference is a game you can lose. There’s more familiarity and the games are more meaningful,” SMU Head Coach Larry Brown said. “At this time of year, you can’t take any night off and expect to win.” Sykes is averaging 16 points, just over seven rebounds and close to four assists a game this season. The 6-6, 220 pound senior from Michigan is a tough matchup for SMU guard Nick Russell to take on, but Russell has been

exceptional at guarding SMU’s opponents’ best guard. If Russell shuts down Sykes, it’s highly unlikely that UCF, one of the worst teams in the country with field goal percentage at just .437 from the field, will be able to get anything going offensively. Tristan Spurlock, another senior at UCF, has been averaging 11.7 points and 5.5 rebounds a game for the Knights. Markus Kennedy, Shawn Williams, Cannen Cunningham and Ben Moore will all likely be charged with guarding Spurlock so watch for how the group handles the 6-8, 230 pound player. SMU is coming off its most complete game as a team and with nearly a week off following the UConn win, SMU will have fresh legs for the first of three games in a week. One of SMU’s strengths has been the much improved depth this season and while Brown has talked about trying to pair down his rotation, he knows there are plenty of factors that can affect
that on a given night. “Foul trouble, injuries, all impact that (the rotation). We were able to play a lot of guys in the first half Sunday and some didn’t play much in the second half,” Brown said. “We’re trying to win games. We’re trying to play the guys who give us the best chance to win and that can change from game to game and half to half.” With Yanick Moreira also returning to the lineup, SMU has a log jam in the front court, but that is a big reason why SMU has been so successful against most of their opponents in the paint. Kennedy has been a rock for the Mustangs, averaging 12.9 points per game, 7.9 rebounds per game and close to two steals a game in AAC play. If Kennedy can stay out of foul trouble and get into a rhythm with point guard Nic Moore, SMU should cruise to a win in Moody Coliseum. The game tips off at 3 p.m. and will be televised on ESPNews.

distracting. With daggers in one hand and tommy guns in the other, ball gowns on the women and leather jackets on the men, the decision to mix and match took away from the incredible acting and staging of “Richard III.” Honorable mention goes to Jakeem Powell, Caitlin Galloway and Synthia Green whose brief but powerful moments on stage culminated in a nightmare sequence worthy of the highest praise. As two princes, Galloway and Green seemingly effortlessly pulled off a difficult task: truly embodying the mannerisms of young boys. Directed by Associate Theatre Professor Michael Connolly, the show’s actors overcome any disjointedness between their words and their attire, bringing the audience into the dark world of murder and intrigue that surrounds the life and death of Richard III. The play will be performed Friday at 8 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. Student tickets are $7 and are worth the price. For more information call 214-768-2787.

took liberties with the play that, strange as it may sound, really worked. All of these antics were grounded in the actions of one Russell Jonas, who encapsulated the trickery of Richard III in the role of the title character. Jonas’ Richard was a Moriarty, a Jafar and every sociopathic villain rolled into one. His ticks, his occasional falsettos and comical voices, and his dominance on stage stole the show. In a play where attention to detail and wordplay is imperative, Jonas was able to cue the Shakespearean double entendres with a change of tone, eliciting laughs from the audience. With an impressive set and supporting cast, the production shines in the Greer Garson. The costuming though, steals the spotlight in nearly every scene. From Project Runway worthy gowns to WWI airmen attire, the play drew inspiration from every era under the sun. While this proved beautiful on stage, it also led to a bit of confusion. With no foundation in any one era, past or present, the play’s discontinuity was
