SMU relayed Friday, raised $111,000 for cancer ALISSA FITZPATRICK Contributing Writer afitzpatrick@smu.edu

SMU’s Boulevard lit up Friday night as hundreds of students gathered to take part in the ninth annual Relay For Life. More than 1,000 participants and 58 teams joined in the 12-hour walk, which took place from 5 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday. The times chosen for the walk represent the journey of the cancer patient. “You start at 5 p.m., and it’s supposed to represent the beginning of the process,” SMU junior Alex Katsorelos said. “As the night goes on, you get more tired, which represents

the cancer patient becoming weaker. But once the sun rises, it represents the hope and the future of the cancer patient.” The event raised more than $111,000 for the American Cancer Society, which supports cancer research. “It is so important to have this research done because we are so close,” Katsorelos said. “We’ve made so many breakthroughs. With a little more funding, I know there is a way we can find a cure for cancer.” At the opening ceremony Friday night, cancer survivors walked around the Boulevard, honoring those who lose their lives to the disease, and acknowledging the strength it took

to defeat the odds and win their own battle. The SMU community surrounded survivors, cheering as they circled the Boulevard. “It’s important to show the survivors that we support them and that the community and other people are aware of what they went through,” Katsorelos said. Festivities continued all through the night as performers kept the campus awake, bringing vitality to the Boulevard. Empower Africa dancers, Mustang Mavericks, the Stefani Little Band, Empowered Hip Hop dancers, Belle Tones, Spencer Fox, MOVE, TREAT and Southern Gentleman all entertained

the crowds, bringing a celebratory atmosphere to SMU. Students set up tents in the center of the Boulevard as they listened to music, played games, barbequed, socialized with friends and sold food, all in the hopes of raising money to find a cure for cancer. “Gamma Phi Beta is selling cupcakes,” Katsorelos said. “We all got together as sisters and made homemade cupcakes this week. We’re also doing glow and the dark balloons.” While the event attracts SMU students and faculty, other local schools also got involved.

Sitting at the computer surfing various job search engines, she slams her hand on the table with frustration when she finds out the job she has been waiting to hear back about has been filled. With disappointment and irritation, she regroups and continues searching. This is a typical afternoon for SMU senior Blair Sullivan. “I spend hours each day searching and applying for jobs” Sullivan, who is graduating in May with a marketing degree, said. “Not only are the amount of jobs limited, but with so many people competing for the same job, I know the odds of getting a callback can be slim,” Sullivan said. With the U.S. labor market still struggling to recover from the effects of the Great Recession, unemployment rates are still shockingly high across the board. The recession officially ended in June 2009. However, the national unemployment rate continued to rise, peaking at 9.6 percent annually in 2010. Although statistics show some signs of improvement, employment is recovering slowly, with the youngest adults (ages 18 to 24) among those most affected.

“This is a frightening reality that college graduates are having to face these days,” Real Estate Agent Denise Calkin, 52, said. “When I graduated college, it was shocking if someone I knew didn’t have a job secured,” Calkin said. According to a study conducted by Pew Research Center, in 2011, the unemployment rate among 18 to 24 year olds was 16.3 percent — almost double the overall rate. Although unemployment rates for all age groups have a natural tendency to rise and fall with the business cycle, the youngest adult demographic is set apart with consistently high unemployment rates. With May graduation on the horizon for many SMU students, the search for employment has been stressful and yielding little results. “I knew finding a job would be harder for our graduating class, but I didn’t expect it to be this disappointing,” SMU senior Marisa Witter said. Witter is a hard-working student, graduating with a major in marketing and double minor in economics and advertising. Taking on this kind of workload and achieving her impressive GPA make her seem like a shoe-in to any job. However, reality tells a much different story. “The reality of today’s economy has definitely forced me to make different career-related

Despite many fellowships, SMU lags behind in Rhodes scholars ERIN GILMORE Contributing Writer egilmore@smu.edu For 36 years, SMU has been stag in receiving one of the most prestigious educational fellowships in the United States. SMU has housed 12 Truman scholars, 15 Goldwater scholars and over 20 Fulbright scholars, but only five official Rhodes scholars have come through SMU in almost an entire century. As an international and large-scale program, the Rhodes Scholarship offers a remarkable opportunity for students. Just 32 American college graduates are chosen through the American Rhodes scholars program. The Rhodes Scholarship has been a rare and coveted achievement since 1902. Rhodes scholars may study any post-graduate course offered at the University of Oxford in

Britain for two years, all fees paid by the Rhodes Trust. These applicants are selected based on scholarly achievements, strong character and potential leadership in the careers they will lead. “They’re looking for someone who will shine,” SMU’s Rhodes scholar advisor Ed Countryman, who is a Rhodes scholar himself, said. Countryman expressed that Rhodes is looking for future world leaders who are academically engaged in a serious way. This is a long-term project that must be started early. “It’s not instant,” Countryman said. “You have to be spotted out early, be mentored and encouraged.” The Rhodes process includes preliminary applications, portfolios, recommendations and final applications ending with an extremely selective committee — not to mention the complete

devotion in undergraduate studies to be a student beyond an A-plus ranking. Advisors from Duke and Harvard have expressed to other prestigious institutions like SMU that it’s important for advisors to spot students out early who have the potential to make it. Those chosen are students who will get into the very best graduate schools for their field, and “If you can do that,” Countryman said, “Rhodes can be good to try for.” Those who spot potential scholars can see that this student has something huge to gain from Rhodes and will benefit from Oxford specifically. Rhodes often caters to more scientific students than academic, yet not exclusively. The selectors also consider that they are letting in students who must be good representations

KATE PETTY Food Editor kpetty@smu.edu April 16 marks National Eggs Benedict Day. Traditionally the preparation of this dish of the day involves halving and toasting an English muffin, then topping with slices of Canadian bacon, two poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. As with many gastronomic inventions, the exact origins of Eggs Benedict are unclear. However, most agree to credit one of two individuals. Some argue that a Mrs. LeGrand Benedict, regular at New York City’s Delmonico restaurant in the 1890’s, tired of her usual breakfast and talked the restaurant’s chef into creating a new dish for her. The chef, Charles Ranhofer, dug through his personal collection of recipes to present Mrs. Benedict with what would later be called, Eggs Benedict. Others believe Mr. Lemuel Benedict, a Wall Street broker in the 1890’s, invented Eggs Benedict. Allegedly Mr. Benedict stumbled into the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel one morning with a terrible hangover. In search of a cure, he ordered toast, bacon, two poached eggs and a small pitcher of hollandaise sauce. Naturally, the chef was so

impressed by this inventive combination that he made the dish a permanent fixture on breakfast and lunch menus at the hotel. After substituting the toast for an English muffin, and the bacon for Canadian bacon, Eggs Benedict was born. Throughout the years many variations have been created. Kathleen’s Sky Diner, located near Lovers and the toll road, puts their

own twist on Eggs Benedict with their popular breakfast dish, the Rigo’s Especial. The toasted English muffin and poached egg remain consistent, but spicy chorizo sausage takes the place of Canadian bacon. Also, rather than a traditional hollandaise sauce, Kathleen’s tops their dish with jalapeno hollandaise, which lends an added kick of flavor.

This place could be called the hidden gem of Upper Greenville. During lunch time on a week day you won’t find many people inside b.b.bop, without any apparent reason. Despite being open for nearly a year now, the place doesn’t bring in much of a crowd, but it’s definitely worth a visit. Calling themselves home of the “healthy rice bowl,” this restaurant’s setup is not unlike an Asian fusion version of Chipotle.

Though “signature bowls” are an option, the best way to go is creating your own bowl. After selecting a regular or large sized bowl, three different rices await your selection. Following is a variety of proteins including beef, pork, chicken, meatball or tofu. Finally, a wide variety of vegetables can be added before the bowl is served fresh or cooked. The only area in which BBBop deviates from their healthy claims is their sauces. Any way you prepare it, there simply isn’t a low-calorie peanut sauce in existence. To top it all off, the restaurant offers hibiscus tea limeades and green tea mint lemonade with free refills at a fraction of the price of Starbucks.

1) Remember WHEN you eat is crucial to your health. Eating late at night will not allow your body to digest the food well, which can lead to weight gain and make you feel tired during the day. 2) Carry healthy snacks. Throw a granola bar and piece of fruit in your bag. When you’re studying or in between classes, have a quick bite. You won’t be looking at the clock as much because of a growling stomach. 3) Stay away from vending machines.You may have the intent of purchasing something healthy, but when you get there, you end up seeing options and may end up with something unhealthy. 4) BYOW.

In the Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House, The Dallas Opera performed “La Traviata” for its opening night on Friday, April 13. “La Traviata” is sung in Italian with English supertitles, for all to comprehend.

Tragedy strikes the Winspear in ‘La Traviata’ PAUL Kroeger Opinion Editor pkroeger@smu.edu The Dallas Opera’s latest production, “La Traviata,” which opened on Friday, is at once thrilling and appropriately sentimental. Co-produced by Florida Grand Opera and Cincinnati Opera, this rendition of Giuseppe Verdi’s tragic opera is not to be missed. If you aren’t familiar with “La Traviata” (which translates roughly to “The Fallen Woman”), Violetta, a courtesan suffering from tuberculosis who has taken a variety of wealthy lovers, eventually falls for the heroic, but poorer Alfredo Germont. They live happily together on a country estate until Alfredo’s father, Giorgio Germont asks Violetta to leave so that Alfredo’s siblings are more desirable for marriage. She has brought shame to the family. Violetta leaves so that Alfredo can have a better life and goes

to a party with her old friends. Alfredo arrives and, in a flash of anger, embarrasses her in front of the entire party. Six months later, in her apartment in Paris, Violetta lies dying from tuberculosis. Alfredo and Giorgio arrive to beg for forgiveness, and she dies in Alfredo’s arms. Greek soprano Myrtò Papatanasiu plays a nuanced and captivating Violetta. Her voice is consistently rich and sonorous throughout her difficult role and variety of registers. Coloratura is handled expertly, particularly in “Sempre libera” at the end of the first act, in which Violetta decides to pursue her free life as a courtesan. Her artistry with tempo and dynamics is impressive, which is essential for a Verdi opera. Equally strong was Papatanasiu’s acting, which avoids the temptation to self-indulge in the role. James Valenti gives a strong performance as Alfredo Germont, Violetta’s lover, though his stage movement was a little stiff on

opening night. Still, he makes up for it with clear singing that varies appropriately in color. Alfredo’s initial declamation of love is passionate and full, while Act III’s Alfredo is sensitive and remorseful. Together, Papatanasiu and Valenti make a visually and musically gorgeous couple. Baritone Laurent Naouri is a stern, stoic Gorgio Germont. His voice was equally powerful, though occasionally lost in his Act II duet with Violetta. Other characters include Aaron Blake as Gastone, Amanda Crider as Flora, Tim Mix as the Baron, Mark McCrory as the Marchese, Ethan Herschenfeld as the Doctor, and Susan Nicely as Annina. SMU alumn Bobby Tinnion plays Flora’s Servant. The chorus performed well, although it rushed ahead of the orchestra slightly at the end of Act I. Under the baton of Marco Guidarini, the orchestra performed admirably with sensitivity, tackling difficult and exposed parts with grace.

The set is heavy with shadows through all three acts, hinting at the tragedy that will befall Violetta. Of particular note is the party in the second half of Act II, dominated by red and gold that is at once sumptuous and scandalous. All of the set is reminiscent of Victorian decadance, with elaborate gilded furniture. Costumes are also beautifully complex, particularly during the party scene, in which several of the chorus members break the staid, Victorian mold with exotic Eastern and African party attire. Even if you are not an opera buff, you owe it to yourself to see this production of “La Traviata.” It promises to be entertaining and electrifying. Additional performances are April 18, April 21, April 27, April 29 at the Winspear Opera House. Tickets are $25 to $250. Students can purchase best-available seating for $25 to $50 at the box office 90 minutes before the performance with an SMU ID.

This year, Relay for Life raised more than $111,000, more than the $51,000 raised before last year’s event.

RELAY: Ninth annual shy

of reaching goal amount raised continued from page 1

“We’ve recently started a brand new chapter, Colleges Against Cancer at UT Southwestern,” Crystal Penaloza said. “We don't have a Relay For Life on our campus so SMU was the nearest one.” Penaloza is in the radiation oncology department at UT Southwestern. “We do treat cancer patients, and we’re always supporting the cause of cancer research,” Penaloza said. Kristin Martin, who is also a student at UT Southwestern in the radiation oncology department, hopes that the funds raised from Relay go towards education and screening. “Getting it out there, how to detect cancer, how to prevent cancer is important,” Martin said. “The more knowledge people have about how to prevent it and how to screen, the better off.” Many families around Dallas joined in on the celebration, with some sharing personal stories about the ways in which cancer has affected them. “We tailgate on the Boulevard every year,” Dallas resident Kyle Henry said. “Several of our parents have been stricken with cancer, and we like to support this cause.” Henry brought his two young

daughters to the event as well and said it’s important to show them why the cause is important. At nightfall, luminaries were purchased and placed around the Boulevard, honoring those who have survived, died of or are currently battling cancer. During the Luminaria Ceremony, participants walked in a moment of silence, as candlelight flickered, lighting the way around the Boulevard. While SMU’s goal to raise $116,000 has not yet been reached, most participants believe the event was a success. “I am very happy with the turnout, and the variety of the things that SMU has to offer at each of the tables,” Penaloca said. SMU freshman Kaycee Morganto had never participated in Relay before. “I love it so far,” Morganto said. “I think it’s awesome, and I love the creativity.” While there are several cancer fundraisers around Dallas throughout the year, for many participants it's the sense of community felt at Relay that sets the event apart. “The atmosphere is different because everyone’s coming together as a community,” Katsorelos said. “It’s not simply a walk, but people

are here coming up with different, creative ways to raise money. Teams raise money in their own individual ways, which is a great way to show support.” With the success of this year’s Relay, many groups are already planning ways to improve the attendance and donations at next year’s event. “We’re already talking about what we can do to improve next year,” Martin said. “With this demographic, we’re looking at offering healthier snack choices, fruit smoothies and stuff like that, to raise more money.” Martin also hopes to spread the word about Relay so that more survivors take part in the event. “I would like to see more survivors out here,” Martin said. “It’s really inspiring to see people who have survived cancer and gone through it.” While it is easy to forget the number of people affected by cancer, Relay For Life provides the opportunity for SMU students and the community to honor those who face cancer every day. It’s important to “support those who have cancer, to honor those who fought it and lived and to remember those who have fought hard but unfortunately passed away,” Katsorelos said.

of Oxford. It’s important to “sell yourself to the selectors as someone who will come back and be a good ambassador for Britain to this part of the world,” Countryman said. So, it may be surprising that as prestigious as SMU is with student achievement, it has not graced Rhodes’ list of fellowship recipients since 1976. A finalist was named in 2008, but making it past the winner’s circle is a challenge. Ivy League universities are the only institutions that receive Rhodes scholarships often, as to where five seems like a low number for SMU. “Given that Rhodes only gives about 35 to 40 awards a year, five in SMU’s history isn’t that bad,” Countryman said.

The 36-year period that SMU has not seen a Rhodes scholar is another possible indication that in some way, something needs to be improved to better the quality of students. Yet, that is not the case. It is a matter of early preparation, concentration and cultivation. “I see a good number of people [at SMU] who I thought are fully capable for Rhodes,” Countryman said. “They have that potential to achieve beyond being an A-student.” SMU is not lagging in student quality, but perhaps no student has committed to the serious time it takes to run the race, and with that, early enough. Students are going head-tohead with students from Yale, Cornell and Harvard. It takes time to cultivate such success, eventually having what

it takes to get in the best graduate schools for the prospective scholar’s field. “You have to get the right person to make the decision early enough and get a civic commitment,” Countryman said. Countryman compares it to high school football players being scouted early on for college teams. “It’s that longtime support and mental preparation,” he said. Countryman insists that the issue isn’t whether SMU students are of quality like Ivy League institutions or that there aren’t students at SMU who have the qualities to apply, but the simple fact that they don’t apply at all. “I don’t think it’s any of that,” Countryman said. “It’s just that no one has simply clicked on Rhodes in good time.”

GRADS: Bowl, eat in style continued from page 1

Josh Sepkowitz and Kyle Noonan are bringing the first “upscale boutique bowling alley” to Dallas this fall. After signing the lease last week, the two are ready to start construction on the 15,000 square-foot space that will feature 15 lanes and a restaurant. During the past few years, the two graduates visited bowling alleys in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles and other major cities. When thinking about their own bowling alley, which is located in the Shops of Park Lane across from NorthPark Center, Noonan and Sepkowitz said they didn’t want to create another “clublike” atmosphere. While there aren’t any bowling alleys in the city of Dallas, Sepkowitz said Bowl & Barrel

will differ from those in Fort Worth and Addison. “Here you’ll feel like you’re in your living room — really comfortable, really good food and Indie rock and country music.” Since graduating from SMU in 2002, Noonan has been in the restaurant business and Sepkowitz worked in investment banking. As Sepkowitz put it, “Kyle has the restaurant and hospitality and I have the finance side. We make the perfect team.” While the “Bowl” speaks for itself, the “Barrel” is what makes this business unique to Dallas. A combination of a beer hall and a pub, large communal tables will fill the wood and metal interior. “We’ll have craft beers and barrel-aged beer that you can pour directly from the cask,” Sepkowitz

said. “Of course we’ll also have good wine and cocktails, too.” And, while one might assume the menu will consist of all bar food, they are mistaken. “The core of our menu is based on German sausages,” Sepkowitz said adding, “Every aspect of our facility is different than what is in Dallas right now.” Sepkowitz also said the prices are affordable, comparing them to Studio Movie Grill with drinks ranging from $5 to $6 and food from $10 to $15. Noonan and Sepkowitz hope Bowl & Barrel will celebrate its grand opening Oct. 1. After that, it’ll be open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday and until 2 a.m. on the weekends. “It’ll be quite a shindig,” Sepkowitz said

Engineering professor leads global water research in Africa, Asia MARY HOLBROOK Contributing Writer mholbrook@smu.edu Dr. Andrew Quicksall, a professor in the Bobby B. Lyle School of Engineering, recently spent four months traveling throughout two different continents focusing on arsenic research. With the support of a $27,000 grant from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and with SMU funds, Quicksall took a group of mostly graduate students to 17 different refugee camps throughout Africa and Asia. The professor and his students traveled from August through December to countries including Kenya, Liberia, Uganda and Bangladesh. There they made measurements of water points at wells and collected water samples to bring back to analyze and find solutions to the dangerous water quality issues in these nations.

They found problems in all 17 refugee camps that serve water to more than 1 million people. “We found lead in Bangladesh, and the people had no idea they were drinking it every day,” Quicksall said. He plans to take a group back in May to help fix the problem. Quicksall has taught graduate level courses in environmental chemistry and aquatic chemistry. He is currently teaching freshman design courses. “He is very busy, but the most charismatic person ever,” Emily M. Vernon, distance education coordinator of the Lyle School of Engineering, said. “If you can get a hold of him, he will give you more information than you will ever need.” Quicksall graduated from Texas Christian University with a bachelor’s in environmental sciences and then went on to Washington State University to get his master’s in geology. From there, he went to Dartmouth where he received a Ph.D. in earth sciences. “I am a science person,”

Quicksall, who has taught at the SMU engineering school for two years, said. Quicksall best describes this study as finding “places where toxic metals are in drinking water and finding ways to eliminate those problems. It is figuring out where it is, why it’s there and how to fix it.” The group’s goal now is to develop a database that will help the UNHCR provide safer drinking water in the refugee camps. The database will identify contaminants in the water and allow the UNHCR to track water quality in the camps over a period of time. “In order to prevent the numerous types of cancer outbreaks associated with arsenic consumption, it is imperative that drinking water be monitored to ensure that arsenic levels meet the required standard,” Warren Thayer, a senior civil engineering major, said. “Especially in foreign countries where groundwater wells are still the main source of water.”

decisions than I think I would have if the economy were better,” Witter said. Although most soon to be college graduates are passed the point of internships and are searching for an actual job, many, including Witter, have had to adjust this thinking. “I recently accepted an internship in the hopes it will

lead to a job,” Witter said. Witter stresses that she was not even considering an internship at this point, but circumstances have forced her to change her thinking. “When I realized this may be my only chance for getting a job then I knew I had to take it,” Witter said. Adding to the stress of finding a job, many students are faced

with the reality of being cut-off by their parents. “If I don’t have a job by graduation, I have to move home to my parents house,” Sullivan said. With May creeping up quickly, students are scrambling to get their affairs in order. “At this point, I’m just hoping to have any paying job at all,” Sullivan said.

With Rick Santorum’s exit from the presidential race this past week, the general election campaign between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama has officially started. Barack Obama’s first move in the general election campaign, the pushing of the so-called “Buffet Rule”, illustrates what the dominant theme of his reelection strategy is going to be: fairness. The Buffet Rule is the proposed tax-hike on millionaires and

Column

Religion and private life clash in Rockwall Heritage Christian Academy in Rockwall, Texas fired Cathy Samford, a science teacher and volleyball coach for being pregnant out of wedlock. Samford, 29, is in a relationship with her fiancé, but says that various circumstances prevented them from getting married. Under the First Amendment, the Supreme Court clearly permits religious institutions to terminate employment in cases that would be considered discrimination in secular institutions. The editorial board concurs with Heritage Christian Academy that religious schools should have more leverage to hire and fire employees with ministerial duties. We fully support the separation of church and state, and think that religious institutions should be free from government and vice versa. However, the sections of Samford’s contract that were the basis for her termination concern us. According to a Heritage Christian Academy press release, employees sign a contract with the following stipulation: “The teacher will manifest, by precept and example, the highest Christian virtue and personal decorum, serving as a Christian role model both in and out of school to pupils; and as an example to parents and fellow faculty members in judgment, dignity respect and Christian living.” We see this part of the contract as too vague for termination. Various denominations, individual churches and individual believers have various interpretations of “the highest Christian virtue and personal decorum.” By some Christians’ standards, Samford was involved in a loving, Christian relationship with her fiancé, but for various reasons, unable to formally marry. Heritage Christian Academy’s statement of faith mostly clarifies the school’s Christian foundation, but not very many political statements. The school’s administration believes that Adam is the historical ancestor of all mankind and that Jesus Christ will literally return to earth to pick the saved. They also believe in “the everlasting punishment of the lost.” However, other than continual calls for the faculty to be Christian and live a “Christian lifestyle,” the school’s website does not give specifics on what constitutes a Christian lifestyle. If a religious institution believes that having a child outside of marriage will impact an employee’s ministerial duties to the point where the employee should be fired, then the institution should state that in the contract. As it is, different people could interpret the contract in different ways. Could a teacher be fired for being gay? What about for having a tattoo or reading “Harry Potter” at home? There is no firm indication of what crosses the line. The editorial board feels that religious institutions should not extend their reach into their employees’ homes. We see a fine line between the right of religious institutions to convey their message and the right of the individual to live his or her life outside of work free of an employer.

billionaires that would ensure that they pay at least 30 percent of their income in taxes. Since most wealthy people, like Mitt Romney, earn their income through investments and capital gains, and therefore pay a 15 percent rate, this is essentially a doubling of the capital gains tax rate. The reason that capital gains are taxed at a lower rate than wages is because people have already paid taxes on the money they use to invest and earn capital gains. So, the government is already doubletaxing capital gains. In addition, there is no guarantee that your investments will pay off. You could lose everything you invested, or it might not really pay off for years. Doubling the capital gains rate will dramatically slow investment in just about everything, because the risk will not be worth it if you are going to have to pay at least 30 percent of your earnings to the government. President Obama, in several campaign and supposedly non-campaign speeches (this president hasn’t been governing since August, so really everything he does is a campaign move), has said that this rule will raise revenue so we (the government) can invest in education and green technology and some other of the president’s pet projects and reduce the deficit. By continuing to claim this, President Obama is again showing how he doesn’t listen to anyone but himself. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office this week took a look at the Buffet Rule. If implemented, in the next ten years it would bring in the massive sum of an

estimated extra $47 billion. That’s $4.7 billion a year. This makes little instinctive sense. If you double the tax rate, the amount of money the government takes in should double, right? Well, no. The CBO projects that the amount of investment will go down, the rich will find more loopholes to hide their money from Uncle Sam and that people will hold their investments for longer. Lower taxes act as an incentive for an activity, so higher taxes act as a barrier to an activity. We want more investment, especially in this economy. Therefore, this policy is a terrible one. In addition, considering that our budget deficit this year, for the fourth time in a row, will be over $1 trillion, $4.7 billion is literally nothing. At that rate, the Buffet Rule would pay off the 2011 budget deficit by the year 2330. I really understand now why so many people find President Obama so inspiring and intelligent. This is the problem with President Obama’s policy position of just raising taxes and never cutting any government spending: it just won’t work. If you confiscated the wealth of all of the people in the Forbes 400, you would get around $1.5 trillion. We could pay for about one more year of Obama deficits with that. Where would we go for money next? Sure, there are more rich people than the Forbes 400, but they don’t have enough to continue paying for the government behemoth: they already pay 86 percent of the tax burden, a number which has increased with the Bush tax cuts.

Eventually, if we continue down this path of trillion dollar deficits, no entitlement reform and ever expanding government, the middle class is going to have to pay much higher taxes as well. Our country has serious problems. We need a serious president who will actually attempt to tackle these problems, not one that offers only political gimmicks, intense partisanship and poll-tested platitudes that will do nothing to address these issues.

Republican budget widens income gap Paul Kroeger Opinion Editor pkroeger@smu.edu Last week, House Republicans passed Paul Ryan’s budget plan, which includes sharp decreases in domestic spending, as well as lower tax rates. Ryan’s budget restructured lower income programs like Medicaid, Pell grants and welfare programs with $3.3 trillion in spending cuts over 10 years. However, Ryan refused to reduce defense spending. At this point, nearly everyone agrees that entitlement spending requires drastic restructuring. Medicaid and social security programs are unsustainable at current rates. In terms of dollars, the U.S. Social Security program is the largest government program in the world. However, Ryan’s budget plan cuts discretionary spending to a ridiculous extent. Ryan’s bill, supported by the de facto Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, would purportedly even out tax rates by removing tax breaks for the wealthy. But so far, not a single tax break has been eliminated in the budget. As a result, the budget favors the rich even more. Not only do the ultra rich save more of their after-tax income, but government programs that help the poor are reduced. This is counterproductive. The income gap in America has

climbed astronomically in the last decade. In 2007, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) found that, after taxes and income transfers, the lower 80 percent of American households earned less than half of the total American income. In 2011, the CBO reported that the top 1 percent of household incomes grew by 275 percent between 1979 and 2007. I agree that the Obama administration has not made progress in reforming entitlement spending, but neither did the Bush or Clinton administrations. Entitlement spending reform is the most taxing part of our budget. Mandatory spending programs accounted for 56 percent of 2011’s federal budget. But their necessity and integration in our country makes entitlement reform a political landmine. Our population is aging and healthcare costs are rising. With current demographic trends, Ryan’s entitlement spending cuts will severely impact the average American. On the other hand, our defense budget is ripe for reduction. As we reduce our involvement in the Middle East, we can cut our defense budget without putting our country’s safety in jeopardy. Historically, after wars, Congress has cut defense spending. Eisenhower cut the defense budget by 27 percent after the Korean

War, and H.W. Bush cut defense spending by 20 percent after the Cold War. There is no doubt that we need to reform our tax system and spending, but Ryan’s budget continues America’s trend of increasing income inequality. Furthermore, Ryan’s fanatic

dedication to defense spending is as irrational as it is unsustainable. We do need to reform our government spending, but the recent budget cuts are unbalanced and unfair. Paul is the opinion editor. He is a junior majoring in voice performance.

Walking a fine line

Holding athletes and coaches to higher standards than ourselves: is it fair? KELSEY CHARLES Staff Writer kcharles@smu.edu

Hall of famer Larry Brown, Indiana assistant coach Steve McClain and Marquette assistant coach Tony Benford will all be interviewing at SMU for the head coach position.

Larry Brown, others come to Dallas for head coach interview KELSEY CHARLES Staff Writer kcharles@smu.edu Larry Brown interviewed for the head basketball coach position at SMU with Athletic Director Steve Orsini Sunday, according to a report on ESPN.com. Brown, who had previously expressed interest in coaching at SMU, has a long track record for success. Brown has several championships under his belt, both in the NBA and NCAA. He has been named Coach of the Year several times and his legacy at schools such as the University of Kansas

is legendary. Brown’s last job was as the head coach of the Charlotte Bobcats in 2010, a season that ended well under the .500 range — an uncommon statistic for Brown’s teams. In March, Brown told ESPN’s Dana O’Neil, “I’d like to get back involved in the game in some capacity. Whether that’s as a coach, assistant, running a team or just as a resource, I don’t care.” Indiana assistant Steve McClain and Marquette associate head coach Tony Benford interviewed with Orsini earlier today for the position. Benford, who is known for his aggressive recruiting, has

strong ties to Texas schools — he was a former player at Texas Tech and previously recruited the state while coaching at New Mexico. McClain, who has more than 28 years of experience as a coach on the collegiate level, boasts a strong résumé as well. Currently serving as the assistant at Indiana, McClain is known for his development of strong players that have been able to make it on the NBA level. He previously served as the head coach at Wyoming and was a one-time assistant at TCU. Check out smudailycampus. com for updates throughout the week.

Sudoku

In light of the recent events at Arkansas, many people are beginning to question the fairness of the standards that our society holds athletes and coaches to. Is it truly fair? Or does the intense scrutiny just come with the territory? As many already know, the head football coach at Arkansas, Bobby Petrino, was recently fired on grounds of “misleading and manipulative behavior.” Petrino was involved in a motorcycle accident on April 1 and failed to disclose on the police report that he had a passenger with him at the time. The passenger turned out to be 25-year-old Jessica Dorrell, a former volleyball player for the Razorbacks, who had just been hired by Petrino for a position with the football team — a job that over 159 other candidates applied for. She is also his mistress. In addition to his lies regarding the accident, Petrino also paid Dorrell $20,000 in cash for reasons unknown to

the public. Despite the damning evidence against his character, there are still supporters for Petrino. According to a report from USA Today, a group of Arkansas fans formed a group called “Team Save Coach Petrino” to try and convince Arkansas’ athletic director Jeff Long to save his job. Several supporters carried signs with one that read “What’s wrong with scoring in the offseason?” Support for Petrino is strong, but not limited to, the Razorback community. “I think too drastic of measures have been taken,” SMU sophomore Katie Hamilton said. “They’re still human, and people make mistakes.” A less considered factor that some have brought up is the backlash that Petrino’s firing will have on the team and university as a whole. “Firing a coach affects more than just the coaching position,” Hamilton said. “You’re also affecting the players and they’re going to get upset. Then the school will get upset as well as the fans. It’s

just almost causing more harm than good.” Others don’t show as much sympathy for the now unemployed coach. “I think Arkansas did the right thing,” said former SMU basketball player and current graduate student, Collin Mangrum. “In no world is that OKcheating on your wife and lying to cover things up.” For Mangrum, being a part of a collegiate-level program should be considered a privilege and every person needs to respect the rules that program has in place. The increased scrutiny and expectations of higher moral standards just comes with the territory. “Everybody has rules and whether you like it or not you need to adhere to them,” he said. The fact that Petrino cheated on his wife, lied about his mistress and hired her under false pretenses over other qualified candidates is indisputable. But to some, the question of the harshness of his penalty still remains.
