As Student Trustee, Conway will serve as a full voting member of the SMU Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees consists of 41 other members and serves as the governing board of the university.

National BOSTON— Several relatives of marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev have arrived in Boston as the defense prepares to present its case in the penalty phase of his trial. Tsarnaev’s lawyers are scheduled to begin presenting their witnesses Monday.

CENTENNIAL, Colo.— The judge in the Colorado theater shooting case has denied defense attorneys’ request to move the death penalty trial to another county. He said he would have to search outside the state or country to find jurors who haven’t been exposed to extensive publicity.

Texas BRENHAM— Blue Bell Creameries says it will close all three of its creameries in Texas, Oklahoma and Alabama for intensive cleaning and employee training in response to listeria illnesses linked to its ice cream.

The creamery said the program comes after a thorough review of its operations and discussions with an expert microbiologist.

The creameries will be closed next week. Ice cream produced this week won’t be sold to the public.

The nine Tower Scholars congregate in the George W. Bush Presidential Library’s Situation Room.

Tower Scholars host class simulation in Bush Library Situation Room LAUREN AGUIRRE Editor-in-Chief @laurencaguirre Imagine sitting in the White House Situation Room with the Secretary of Defense, the National Security Advisor, the White House Chief of Staff and the President of the United States.

Everyone is discussing North Korea and the Sony hack, all advising the President on foreign policy. This is what the nine Tower Scholars on campus did Wednesday afternoon.

Well, the students didn’t actually go

to the Situation Room in Washington, D.C. But, they did sit in a mock version in the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum. Each of the nine students played a role to advise the faux “President,” or their professor. This was their final exam for a policy seminar course.

“This program gives you real life experience,” sophomore Luxor Brothers said. “We’re sharing ideas and getting different opinions, just like how policy decisions are made in the real world.”

The Tower Scholars program is brand new, with its first class of nine scholars

joining the program as sophomores this year. The program focuses on real-world policy-making experience and is open to students of all majors.

Currently, the Tower Scholars include a pre-med student, an English major, and a communications major.

“We [the scholars] have definitely grown closer over this semester,” sophomore Sara Jendrusch said. “We discuss assignments and collaborate for things like this simulation. We even have a Group Me.” Students can only apply for the Tower Scholars program as sophomores, and

then only 10 students are selected with the idea of creating a diverse group in mind.

“We want diversity because this is how policy is actually made,” professor Diana Newton said. “You take in all these varying viewpoints and determine the best course of action.”

The policy seminar class is just the beginning for these young scholars.

During their junior year, the group will spend the spring semester working on a specific policy issue in Washington,

The Festive Kitchen caters to Mustang Football, Snider Plaza kyle waldrep Contributing Writer kwaldrep@smu.edu Sun-scorched pavement greeted The Festive Kitchen staff as they arrived on SMU’s campus on a summer day to prepare dinner for the Mustang football team, coaches and staff.

When Sandy Korem, owner of The Festive Kitchen, stepped into the old kitchen underneath old Moody Coliseum, she found no running water, no soap, no ovens and no microwaves with only two and a half hours to execute dinner.

Transporting water from her company’s storefront in Snider Plaza that evening, Korem served 170 people dinner, using gas cooktops, grills and imagination.

While SMU searched for Korem’s new location, her team prepared every dinner, on time, no matter the circumstance.

“They will be there at 7 o’clock, to eat, whether I am ready or not. You don’t want to have hungry

football players standing over you wanting to know where their food is,” Korem explained about catering in adverse circumstances.

Since 2012, Korem, owner of The Festive Kitchen catering company, has served “Training Table,” the SMU football team dinner, during their summer “two-a-day” football camp and Sunday through Thursday throughout the fall season.

Starting Fall 2015, The Festive Kitchen will serve lunch as well as to dinner.

Raised in Alexandria, Louisiana, and a nurse by trade, Korem had no background in the culinary arts, but her love for cooking and entertaining spurred the Festive Kitchen idea.

Korem knew she had a niche in “stay at home mothers” and aspiring professionals who did not have time to cook.

Korem opened her business in a small storefront in Richardson, Texas, where she first sold cookies from her own recipe and provided full service catering with her own kitchen-tested recipes.

Go for fun.

GoPass .

The Festive Kitchen expanded to a larger catering kitchen with 34 employees and another storefront in Snider Plaza.

The dinner menu for the players consists of two or three proteins, typically chicken and red meat, coupled with three carb selections and three vegetable choices.

With no certified nutrition specialist for the SMU Football Team, Korem studies the player’s nutritional habits to compose the dinner menu.

Korem explains how some players are trying to bulk up while others are losing weight to increase agility and quickness.

Knowing how much to serve the players remains Korem’s biggest challenge.

“The first time we served them queso, the line got about halfway through and we ran out. I sent one of my staff back to the store in Snider Plaza to get more,” Korem said.

Kalli Brooks, Korem’s catering manager, assists Korem with composing and executing each meal.

Brooks explains that the players consume

one and a half to two times the amount of food compared to an average person.

“Cinnamon Toast Crunch [is always a favorite with the players]. Every morning during the season we put out two different cereals for them, and if there is Cinnamon Toast Crunch out there, the other cereal has no chance,” Brooks said.

Brooks added that “Louisiana” hot sauce is another player favorite.

“They eat hot sauce on everything, and they like their syrup warm,” Brooks said.

While Korem and Brooks serve the SMU football team, Korem has a full-time staff that accommodates her customers at the storefronts in Snider Plaza and Richardson.

Stop by these to-go stores to try her specialties: gourmet cookie dough, such as cranberry white chocolate and cappucino pecan.

Also, taste hors d’oeuvres like parmesan flan and carrot souffle tartlettes.

Don’t forget sides like sun-dried tomato pasta salad or spinach and artichoke spread.

FRIDAY n APRIL 24, 2015 politics

Religion provides insight to presidential candidate support LAUREN CAstle Contributing Writer lcastle@smu.edu Ted Cruz announced his campaign for president in March at Liberty University. The University is a private Christian school in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Cruz then released a TV campaign ad during Easter weekend. “Blessed” highlights Cruz’s religious and conservative beliefs.

“Were it not for the transformative love of Jesus Christ, I would have been raised by a single mom without my father in the household,” states Cruz in the ad. “God’s blessing has been on America from the very beginning of this nation.”

Some politicians use religion to attract voters.

Seventy-six percent to 77 percent of Americans claim to be Christians, according to Kevin Schultz, an associate professor of history, catholic studies, and religious studies at the University of Illinois-Chicago.

SMU Associate Political Science Professor Matthew Wilson believes many religiously observant voters use their faith when deciding on who to vote for in elections.

“Those who are more religiously committed have become more Republican and those less religiously committed have become more Democrat,” Wilson said.

Voters’ racial identities can determine how they will use their religion in an election. Religiously observant African-Americans tend to support policies against social issues such as homosexuality. However, more than 90 percent of African-Americans will vote for Democrats due to party loyalty, according to Wilson.

Wilson says that Jewish voters tend to lean toward Democratic candidates. However, Orthodox Jews tend to vote Republican.

In the recent Texas Governor’s race, Abbott ran against Texas Senator Wendy Davis. Davis received national attention when she led a 13-hour filibuster against a bill that placed several restrictions on abortion clinics, which forced many to close.

D.C. Half of the group will collaborate with the State Department and the other half will work with the Department of Education. The scholars will be led by an SMU professor and an actual policy practitioner.

“What I love most about the program is

Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a practicing Catholic, featured his mother-in-law, Mary Lucy Phalen, in a gubernatorial campaign ad in 2014.

Phalen is Abbott’s godmother in the Catholic Church and is also a Latina. The ad allowed Abbott to reach out to the Latina community, which is widely pro-life.

A voter’s religion can also determine if a voter will support an issue. Wilson believes the religious left-winged tend to support social justice issues, such as immigration and welfare. Religiously observant voters incline to side with conservatives on moral issues: homosexuality, abortion, religion in public life, and school prayer.

Junior Julie Martin supports pro-life issues. She is a practicing Roman Catholic and has attended many pro-life demonstrations.

“My religious beliefs reinforce the principle that every human life deserves to be valued and respected,” said Martin, the president of Mustangs for Life.

Mustangs for Life is a non-religious student organization that promotes pro-life views on abortion and the death penalty.

Gender does not affect a voter’s support for pro-life or pro-choice causes, according to Wilson. However, women tend to have stronger views on abortion.

“Women are more polarized on these cultural issues that men aren’t,” said Wilson. “Women are more religious. A large number of the ‘foot soldiers’ for religious conservative organizations have always been women and continue to be.”

Martin chooses candidates based on their views on the economy, education, and foreign policy.

However, most of her support goes to candidates who are pro-life when it concerns abortion.

“It is the first priority when I vote,” said Martin, a registered Texas voter. “If the right to life is not respected, any rights to liberty and the pursuit of happiness are inherently demeaned. You cannot grant someone liberty if you don’t first grant them life.”

global vice chair of the public relations firm Burson-Marsteller.

She is best known, however, as a main figure in President Bush’s campaigns for both Texas governor and president; as a counselor to the first Bush Administration; and as an Undersecretary of State for public diplomacy and public affairs in the U.S. Department of State.

Hughes calls her old boss a serious president, but also fun to work with.

“He is quick, fun, and has a great sense of humor, as well as challenging,” she said.

Former President Bush, reached by email through his office, said Hughes always provided sound advice and wise counsel.

“Her understanding of how to frame issues was an integral part of any successes I may have had,” Bush said. “I am grateful not only for her professional expertise over the years, but for her friendship.”

In 2013, Karen Hughes received the Dedman College Distinguished Graduate Award, and was named by the Associated Press as the ‘most influential woman ever to serve an American President.’

Hughes’ work at Burson-Marsteller includes

strategic positioning for companies and their executives.

She said she searches for what the companies stand for and what they are responsible for. Most importantly, though, Hughes is in charge of crisis management.

“If our client has a crisis, we have a crisis,” Hughes said.

Hughes, who lives in Dallas with her family, graduated from SMU with majors in liberal arts and journalism. She credits her favorite class, Radio Television News Writing, for helping her find her voice.

“I fell in love with it because we learned to use words and pictures that communicated everything so powerfully. I fell in love with the art of mirroring words and pictures,” said Hughes, who worked in her early career as a television news reporter.

Hughes was recognized during her senior year

by Phi Beta Kappa, a society that prides itself on inviting only about one in a hundred college seniors dedicated to the liberal arts and sciences each year.

Hughes was also a Panhellenic Woman as a part of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority.

In addition to her professional career and her work with the Bush Institute, Hughes said she is busy these days helping her eldest son Robert plan his upcoming wedding.

that you get to study political science without just the theory,” sophomore AJ Jeffries said.

“You’re actually applying these ideas to real, concrete issues.”

During their senior year, the Tower Scholars will be sent out into the Dallas community. Each scholar will have a real policy issue to tackle on their own, but also with the support of the group.

“The classwork is definitely challenging,” Jendrusch said. “But it is also insanely rewarding.”

Vanished machines at Dedman reappear as Synergy 360 “What’s that new machine at Dedman Center?” asks Health & Fitness Editor Carleeann Allen.

Two years of video and sign-in data showed gym high-traffic times and the areas most used during those times.

Equipment changes were based on effective and efficient use of space; relative age of equipment; current gym equipment trends; and, safety and hazard prevention.

The previous floor setup was congested with 30 selecterized, under-utilized machines. 16 machines were removed from the floor because 11 of these 16 were duplicate machines that exercised the same muscle groups. Five selecterized machines were not replaced, but alternatives are available to work the same muscle groups.

These changes decreased floor congestion and provided a more opportunity for individual and group circuit training, as well as, compound versus isolated movements.

Regarding these changes, Dedman Center contacted all members listed in its Facility Management software CSI via email, informing them of two sets of tutorials – one from noon to 1pm, the other from 5 to 6pm – on Monday, April 13th, wherein the Personal Training Program would host to introduce and instruct members on the benefits of new equipment and how to use each new machine.

Luke Brian poses with his awards for entertainer of the year and vocal event of the year.

Still dreaming of the ACMs This weekend was the 50th anniversary of the Academy of Country Music Awards (ACMs).

And I was lucky enough to be there.

I first fell in love with country music in the late ‘90s (yes I was little, but I remember) with Shania Twain, George Strait, Alan Jackson and Brooks and Dunn.

The genre has reinvented itself over the years, but its ability to tell a story better than any other kind of music has not.

The evening was hosted by Luke Bryan, who won the fan voted Entertainer of the Year, and Blake Shelton. It also made record breaking history, becoming the most attended live award show in TV history.

Country music is America; it’s hopeful; it’s love.

Over the years, “Jack and Diane” took us along their road to growing up and figuring out life and love.

Jonny Cash cut us deep in “Hurt” with lyrics like, “Everyone I know goes away/In the end/ And you could have it all/My empire/I will let you down/I will make you hurt.”

A lot like writing, and maybe even more so, music has the ability to reach people from all walks of life, connect us, and put into lyrical art the emotions we all feel.

Sometimes, I wish my life could be set to a

constant record of the genre’s deep voices.

Country music is the greatest love story ever told. It’s the one between mom and dad, dad and daughter, mom and son, man and woman, fans and superstars.

Sure, beer, good times, shaking it, trucks and whiskey often make an appearance too, but love is at the root of every country song.

Yes, I want success – as an author, journalist and educator.

But when it comes to love, all I really wanna do is be the redheaded girl in a country song being sung to by Sam Hunt, Dierks Bentley, Kip Moore, Chase Rice, Scotty McCreery – or the George Clooney of music, Kenny Chesney.

LGBT supporters rally in front of McGuffey High School providing encouraging words for LGBT community.

‘Anti-Gay Day’ protest strengthens the necessity of the National Day of Silence Pennsylvania’s McGuffey High School falls under scrutiny after a group of students organize an “Anti-Gay Day” during the nationally-observe Day of Silence.

The Day of Silence encourages students and young adults to take a vow of silence in order to address the problems of bullying, harassment, and injustice upon members of the LGBTQ community. Organized by Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network (GLSEN), the Day has strengthened the gay rights movement since 2001.

Students participating in the “Anti-Gay Day” protest wore flannel shirts, wrote anti-gay on their hands, and sticking Bible verses on LGBT students’ lockers.

First, wearing flannel during the protest is kind of weird considering that the stereotype is that lesbians and lumberjacks wear flannel.

Second, to those who wrote anti-gay on their hands, I hope they get skin cancer.

Third, Leviticus 18:22 may be your pablum, go-to holy script to support your inane intolerance so I direct you to Mark 12:31 and Proverbs 17:15, and I cast upon you 2 Kings 2:24.

Zoe Johnson, a 16-year-old bisexual student, reported, “I got called a dyke, a faggot. They were calling us every horrible name you can think of.”

Johnson and members of the Gay Students Association at McGuffey High School organized a counter-protest to the protests that protested the Day of Silence, which protests for gay rights. They wore black, painted rainbows, and remained silent for most of the day.

Johnson also said that students uploaded Bible verses to Instagram and tagged gay classmates. She

also said some students began circulating a “lynch list” of students who participated in the Day of Silence and that a noose was tied to a flag in one teacher’s classroom.

Sue Kerr, editor-inchief of Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents, wrote in a blog post, “This is a troubling turn of events. These kids didn’t just spontaneously pull a homophobic move. They have a plan. They have coordinated outfits.”

The school district and local police officers continue to investigate all allegations.

Superintendent Erica Kolat said in a statement, “We resolve to ensure that all children can grow and learn in a safe, supportive environment free from discrimination.”

A school should never be used as an environment to hate one group or another. It’s a place for learning and education and should be employed to promote positive campaigns for society and not as a place for discriminatory practices against a certain group.

American Family Association’s Tim Wildmon, an outspoken opponent of LGBT causes, called the Day of Silence a “highjacking of the classroom for political purposes.”

Wildmon calls gays “unnatural

and immoral,” but the only thing unnatural and immoral in this world is his ferret ‘stache; call Animal Services because I’m pretty sure it’s animal cruelty.

Also contact the United Nations because Wildmon’s mustache is a crime against humanity.

Let’s clear the air with some people inappropriately labeling LGBT as a political issue. LGBT is not a political issue; it’s a civil rights one.

It’s a civil rights issue because bigots are infringing upon a group of people’s rights. It’s a civil rights issue because people who were born differently do not hold the same rights as those who were born with “socially acceptable traits.”

It’s a civil rights issue because we live in a society where some believe they are entitled to decide who gets married or not; where a gay couple people who wholeheartedly love each other are forbidden to join in a holy matrimony.

Until the day comes when members of the LGBT community can cheer to the world who they love, we will share their hushed screams and muted discomfort with a day of silence. Until the day comes when a gay couple can publically express their affection and walk into a store without discrimination from “religious freedom” laws, we will observe a day of silence. And until the day comes when a person who is lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender can openly speak about their orientation with freedom from hate and intolerance, we will shout our support by observing the Day of Silence.

The Texas Rangers went to the World Series in the 2010 and 2011.

No. 6 Rangers go to World Series two years in a row This the fifth installment of a ten story series and the 6th place finisher in The Daily Campus’ Top Ten most exciting moments in DFW sports history (since 2000).

MLB – TheTexas Rangers will begin a three game series with division rival Los Angeles Angels.

Both teams are in a three way tie with Seattle for the worst record in the division at 6-9.

Saturday Women’s rowing– The Mustangs host their final home event of the season when Alabama and Central Oklahoma come to White Rock Lake on Saturday.

This one was hard for me. I wanted it to finish higher on our list and you probably did too.

You also might be wondering why we lumped both World Series runs together.

Well, because they didn’t actually win.

Still, the fact that they went to back-to-back world series’ was super impressive and had DFW baseball crazy for a solid three seasons.

So lets hop back into that time-machine and go to the

time when Justin Bieber first started to annoy us and Scott Feldman was the Rangers projected ace-pitcher.

Seriously- Scott Feldman.

Wrap your head around that and tell me manager Ron Washington didn’t work miracles.

Sure the addition of Cliff Lee that season was huge and without him Texas maybe doesn’t make its first ever World Series appearance.

Unfortunately, Texas wet the bed in 2010 and then Nelson Cruz and Scott[expletive] Feldman cost the team its first championship in 2011.

But for three season (20102012) DFW had a competitive baseball team to root for and for that, we thank you.

Even you CJ Wilson...you big jerk.

The SMU women’s golf team propelled into a tie for second place at the AAC championships after a successful second day of play.

The Mustangs, one-under in the second round, tied with Houston at 10-over through 36-holes, trailing UCF by eight strokes.

Alexandra Rossi carded a round of one-under par 71 to move into a tie for first. Rossi was even-par or better on 17 of 18 holes on Tuesday, including two birdies, to be three-under overall.

With five birdies, Jenny Haglund jumped seven spots on the leaderboard to be tied for third.

She had the lowest score for a Mustang with a three-under 69 on

FRIDAY n APRIL 24, 2015 RE VIE W

Entertainment

Nick Jonas wows crowd at intimate concert venue riley coven Arts and Entertainment Writer rcoven@smu.edu Wednesday night, I attended a Nick Jonas concert at the Hilton Anatole hotel in downtown Dallas. And I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical at first.

A classic Top 40 artist who dominates young teenage girls’ iPods as well as the radio waves isn’t always something I’m excited to go see. All that being said, I was immediately proven wrong.

In a hotel ballroom, the event was a more close-up setting in which I was able to really listen to the music, and I caught myself vibing to every song that was played.

While I’m not exactly a connoisseur of this style of music, it was a great show that kept me entertained throughout.

For me personally, the highlight of the show was the surprise cover of Outkast’s “Roses.” I remember standing near the stage and hearing the

opening keys to a song I didn’t expect to be in a Nick Jonas show. I thought to myself, “Is this what I think it is?”

A few second later he burst out with the classic opening, “Caroliiiine” and I was blown away with his unexpected take on the song.

With impressive vocals as well as a talented band behind him, Nick Jonas made the song all his own and was able to produce something as equally impressive as the original.

His spin on it involved a lot more vocal ability than the original and, not to knock Andre 3000, he absolutely killed it.

There were moments where I didn’t even recognize the song aside from the words and it made an impression on me that immediately elevated my enjoyment of the show.

Aside from the impressive cover, what helped make the show a success was Jonas’ ability to work with the crowd and keep the masses of teenage girls entertained.

Strutting across the stage and holding hands with those in the front, he commanded the stage and made entirely sure it was his spotlight.

It worked to his advantage, as throughout the concert, there was never a dull moment.

At times he would walk over and pick up a phone from someone in the front row and proceed to take a selfie or video of the band, all while singing and playing along to his own music.

The control he seemed to possess over the crowd was amazing and the fact that it was all while maintaining composure and an intense set list made it all the more impressive.

Honestly, I probably never would have just gone to a Nick Jonas concert to see the show.

I don’t think it’s something I would have sought out or worked to get tickets to.

But after the performance last night, even in just a small venue, I might have to change my mind.

Riley Coven/THE DAILY CAMPUS

Nick Jonas performed in Dallas at the Hilton Anatole hotel.

Friday top five with Amy amy cooley Contributing Writer acooley@smu.edu Happy Friday, everyone! I’m back and ready with the top stories in entertainment for the week.

1. The Academy of Country Music Awards, hosted by Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan, were held this weekend here in DFW. The show was a great time for country fans, with 23 performances by country’s favorite artists. Some standouts of the evening were George Strait, Reba McEntire, Rascal Flats with Christina Aguilera, Garth Brooks, Nick Jonas with Dan + Shay and of course Miranda Lambert, who took away three awards that night.

Big winners included: Luke Bryan for Entertainer of the year, the most coveted award of the night; Miranda Lambert for Song of the Year, Album of the Year and Top Female Vocalist; Jason Aldean for Top Male Vocalist; and Cole Swindell for New Artist of the Year.

2. “Parks and Rec” fans get excited. Aziz Ansari has a new comedy series coming to Netflix.

I literally can’t wait for this show. (I was quoting “Parks and Rec” character Chris Traeger there, not being “basic,” don’t worry.) It will also feature Eric Warheim from “Tim and Eric Awesome Show,” Noel Wells from SNL, H. Jon Benjamin from “Archer” and “Bob’s Burgers,” and Kelvin Yu from “Popular.”

Netflix has really been giving the people what they want lately, notably with the announcement of the “Full House” spinoff series, “Fuller House.” I’m not sure when either of these shows will make their debut, but I definitely cannot wait.

3. If you’re ever feeling bad

Taylor Swift visited the Academy of Country Music Awards.

about yourself, just remember: at least you’ve never been sued for stealing a chicken when you were 7 years old.

Twenty-five years ago when she lived in the Ukraine, Mila Kunis supposedly stole the pet chicken of Kristina Karo, a woman who claims the two were friends back in the day. Well, Karo moved to L.A. to pursue a career in singing and now claims that the proximity to Kunis is bringing back the haunting memories of losing her pet chicken.

She is suing Kunis for $5,000 due to emotional distress.

I’m going to go ahead and say this won’t work out in Karo’s favor, but at least I now have the honor of knowing who she is and listening to her sure-to-be hit song “Give Me Green Card.”

4. Rumor has it that there’s going to be a new prince popping out pretty soon. Yes, the royal family’s second son is due April 25 (this Saturday!!!) Now it’s not

confirmed by the couple, of course it never would be, but surely if he isn’t coming Saturday, it has to be soon.

What we do know for sure is that he will be born in the same wing of the same hospital as his older brother, Prince George. This hospital trip can cost up to $10,000, plus an additional $17,000 per night after delivery. Talk about the royal treatment.

5. Does Amy even write a Top Five article if she doesn’t include movie statistics? Probably not.

For the third weekend in a row, “Furious 7” has held the number one spot in the box office, raking in about $24 million this weekend.

So who’s in second place, you may ask? It’s a true underdog tale: “Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.” I’m just honestly proud of them for making it this far with a 2 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes (and that’s an improvement because it used to have a zero.)
