herself celebrated as a student. “It was very similar,” remembers Melson, who was a member of Student Foundation as well as Kappa Alpha Theta. “Each organization would show support for its one member and there would be a campus vote and one winner and the queen would be crowned at the half time of the game. The students looked then very much like they do now, the girls would dress up. There would be after parties on campus or nearby on Greenville.” As 2013 marks SMU’s Year of the Library, celebrating the opening of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and the 100th anniversary of SMU’s first library, it’s only fitting that Homecoming’s theme revolves around classic books and stories as SMU continues to write its own story. From “Where’s Waldo” to “The Great Gatsby,” all campus organizations have been competing since Homecoming week kicked off Sunday. The games began at field day with Alpha Chi Omega and Lambda Chi Alpha taking first place. Following field day was the CANstruction competition, which was won by Delta Delta Delta and Kappa Alpha Order. “The sisters of Tri Delta and the brothers of KA built a crocodile to tie in our theme

Homecoming is a time for the entire SMU community to get the chance to celebrate and remember the memories and opportunities provided by the university. For college students, life is constantly filled with stress and obligation. Always rushing from class to class while trying to fit in time for homework and extracurricular activities. And let’s not forget about balancing a social life on top of it all. It’s easy to complain about the difficulty of having so much to do and hard to remember to appreciate and reflect on the opportunities students are given. “Homecoming gives alumni and current students a chance to rally behind their past and current organizations, and it is a time where we can all appreciate how lucky we are to go to a school like SMU,” said Sigma Alpha Epsilon’s homecoming candidate Tony LaRose (’14). Even though time marches on, many of SMU’s homecoming traditions remain untouched. As 2013’s Homecoming weekend is upon us, Leslie Long Melson (’77), Alumni Board Chair, anticipates some of the same festivities she

Four graduates were recognized last night at the 2013 Distinguished Alumni Awards held in a large clear tent constructed for the event on the Dallas Hall Lawn. Business leader Joseph M. “Jody” Grant (’60), investor Jeanne Roach Johnson (’54), and community leader Peggy Higgins Sewell (’72) were honored, as well as the 2013 Emerging Leader Award winner Brittany Merrill Underwood (‘06). Following remarks from President R. Gerald Turner and Brad Cheves, the vice president for development and external affairs, guests enjoyed a three-course meal before hearing Underwood’s story. Underwood founded the Ugandan American Partnership Organization in 2006 after a life-changing trip to Uganda. She raised $1 million to build a threestory orphanage and moved there after earning her B.A. degree from SMU with a major in journalism and minor in political science. While working in Uganda Underwood also established the Akola Project, a nonprofit social business that has elevated more than 1,200 women out of poverty with vocational training, education programs, support groups and savings and loans associations. Along with the orphanage, Underwood’s organization has built more than 23 clean water wells, two

vocational training centers and a social business for women whose products are sold in more than 220 U.S. boutiques. Current SMU students continue to be involved in Underwood’s nonprofit. Grant, who will be inducted into the Texas Ballroom Hall of Fame next month, celebrated his alumni award last night along with the one-year anniversary of the opening of Klyde Warren Park. Grant chaired the Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation Board and raised approximately $100 million for the park. Grant attended SMU on a swimming scholarship, winning four individual Southwest Conference championships before earning his BBA in 1960. He became CEO of Texas American Bank in 1986 and launched Texas Capital Bank in 1998. Grant is currently on the board of SMU’s John Goodwin Tower Center for Political Studies and served on the Board of Trustees from 1980 to 1988. Johnson also joined the Distinguished Alumni for her dedication to her alma mater and

At the age of 20, Bucaram founded the non-profit organization Rawfully Organic. Based in Houston, Rawfully Organic is now the nation’s largest raw organic farmer’s market co-operative, and it will soon be expanding to Dallas. “Rawfully Organic is basically a hub for all of the farmers to

come and bring their food, and I purchase from them and then we figure out a way to evenly distribute it amongst everyone in the co-op,” Bucaram said. The co-op is entirely volunteerrun, and feeds 700 families a week in Houston and has 15,000 registered members. “We get lower prices on the

She said that she wants to put it in an area where many people could access it. Bringing the co-op to Dallas will also help support local farmers. Bucaram became a raw vegan as she was entering college and has been eating a diet made up of raw fruits, vegetables and minimal nuts and seeds for the past eight years. “Believe it or not, but I went cold turkey in one night, and I never went back,” she said. It takes a lot of guts to live an alternative lifestyle in college. But Bucaram said she was never concerned about “standing in.” “Just being in a dorm room with a little blender and a little fridge was probably more powerful of a life changing experience for me than anything else,” Bucaram said. However, Bucaram said that it was financially difficult to eat fully raw while in college. “I lived off of bananas, pears and lettuce for like a year because I had like 80 bucks a week. And yes it was awesome and it was

Student talent to be showcased at Pigskin Revue Shannon Lynch Contributing Writer snlynch@smu.edu The Pigskin Revue, to be held tonight at 8:15 p.m. in McFarlin Auditorium, is the longest running SMU tradition on campus according to the Pigskin Revue Committee. Organized, produced and developed by the Mustang Band, the Pigskin Revue is a variety show that features SMU students, performing either as individuals or groups, in different singing, dancing, comedy and talent acts. According to the Pigskin Revue Committee, the show was modeled after the traveling Vaudeville shows that were popular in the 1920s and ‘30s. These shows featured slapstick comedy and big band sounds that have since helped make Pigskin Revue both a timeless and unique part of SMU tradition. Since its first show in McFarlin Auditorium in 1933, the Pigskin Revue has had themes such as Broadway, Disney and the Roaring Twenties. Thus, in keeping with this year’s Homecoming theme, the show is entitled “Lights, Camera, Pigskin: From the Pages to the Silver Screen.” Without spoiling too much of the surprise, the Pigskin Revue Committee shared a few details on what the audience can expect from the show. “Beautiful musical numbers, spoken word, hilarious videos, surprises from notable characters of beloved novels portrayed by SMU students, their favorite acapella groups and their favorite movie soundtracks from the black and white days of movies to the movies based on

books today,” the committee said. Sophomore Sullivan Martz, whose favorite performance of Pigskin Revue last year was the Southern Gentlemen, commented on the wide range of performances in the show. “I think it is important for the students of SMU to get an idea of the variety of talents we have here on campus,” she said. The Pigskin Revue Committee hopes the annual show will continue to “unify the SMU community on the foundation of SMU tradition and spirit through the avenue of an entertaining, collaborative and captivating student-led production.” The committee also shared some of the SMU traditions associated with the Pigskin Revue that have since been phased out. “Up until the 1980s, Pigskin Revue was the place where the Homecoming Court was presented to the student body, and where the Homecoming Queen and King would be announced,” committee members said. A bonfire pep rally in front of Dallas Hall was another tradition that has since died out. The Pigskin Committee is actively working to bring back elements of these traditions in hopes to get the show “on the road to its former glory.” Now, the Pigskin Revue has a pep rally after the show to get the crowd excited for the Homecoming game the next day. The Pigskin Committee hopes that bringing back some of these traditions will help get more groups on campus involved with the Revue. “The best tradition of the show is how it brings the

Photographer Bob Jackson, detective Jim Leavelle and Dallas Morning News reporter Hugh Aynesworth spoke at yesterday’s panel.

J-school hosts Oswald photo panel Emily Sims News Writer esims@smu.edu In honor of the upcoming 50th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, the SMU Division of Journalism hosted “A Look At the Oswald Photo at 50,” yesterday afternoon in O’Donnell Auditorium. The panel, moderated by Journalism Professor Carolyn Barta, featured Bob Jackson, photographer of the Pulitzer Prize-winning photo of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald; Jim Leavelle, the Dallas Police Department homicide detective who escorted Oswald; and Hugh Aynesworth, noted JFK assassination authority and Dallas Morning News reporter at the time of the assassination. Jackson, who worked for The Dallas Times Herald during the time of the assassination, was assigned to get a photo of Oswald as he was being transferred and then rush to Parkland Hospital for the press conference given

by Governor Connally’s wife, Nellie. Although Jackson was told the press conference was more important, his intuition told him to stay put. According to Jackson, the city desk told him, “If you can’t get a picture of Oswald then just skip it and go to the press conference at Parkland because that’s the important thing this morning.” “They had another photographer at the county jail waiting for Oswald,” said Jackson. “But for some reason I thought, what if [Oswald] doesn’t make it to the county jail?” Jackson wasn’t the only one who had a hunch that something was going to happen that morning. Both Leavelle and Aynesworth had the same feeling, leading Aynesworth to go to the city jail during the time of the transfer. For Leavelle, it wasn’t so much a hunch as it was an expectation. According to Leavelle, the police department received numerous anonymous

calls saying they were going to try to abduct Oswald. “We expected something like that to happen and I felt so strongly about it I had two 45s on me,” Leavelle said. “I was not expecting anything in the basement of the police department, I was expecting it to happen outside.” As Leavelle was escorting Oswald through the basement, he made a comment to Oswald not long before the shooting occurred. “I said, ‘Lee, if anyone shoots at you I hope they are as good of a shot as you are’ and he chuckled and he said ‘nobody’s going to shoot at me,” Leavelle said. Jackson’s Pulitzer Prizewinning photo captured the scene just nanoseconds after nightclub owner Ruby shot Oswald. In the photo, Leavelle is the man in the white suit and hat next to Oswald. After the photo was published, Leavelle said people started recognizing him wherever he

went, regardless of where he was. “I made him famous,” Jackson said jokingly. Without missing a beat Leavelle, who provided the comedic relief for the panel, replied, “and I made him rich.” Both the white suit and hat and Jackson’s Nikon S3 camera are in the Sixth Floor Museum. As the panel drew to a close, Barta asked the gentlemen if they thought something like this, meaning the way the JFK assassination and the Oswald shooting was handled, could ever happen again. Aynesworth doesn’t think so. “There used to be a level of trust but that’s no longer there,” said Aynesworth. According to Aynesworth, the handling of these types of situations changed instantly after Ruby was able walk into the basement of the city jail undetected and shoot Oswald. There is now a signed copy of Jackson’s iconic photo in the journalism school.

No member of the SMU community should miss this production.” Tickets for the Pigskin Revue are free with an SMU ID and $15 for reserved seating. For more information on tickets for the Pigskin Revue call 214-SMU-BAND.

After first hearing about the new Faculty-in-Residence Program from a colleague, David Son, SMU professor of chemistry, knew it was an opportunity he wanted to investigate. “A couple of years ago, our departmental coordinator went to a lunch where this program was described. She thought I might be interested and from what she told me, I was,” Son said. “I didn’t know specifically who to contact, but after calling various departments on campus, I was finally directed to Jeff Grim, assistant director of residence life. Jeff set up a meeting, and he filled me in on the details. After this initial discussion, I knew I would be interested.” According to Son, it took him and his wife, Heidi, less than five minutes to make the decision to participate in the program. Son says his wife has been completely behind the move throughout the entire process. The couple has two children, a 7-year-old son and a 10-yearold daughter. Son knows it will be different at first for students to live in a dorm with younger children but hopes it will eventually become normal. “In the beginning, it will probably be a novelty for the students to see a family with young kids living in the commons. But after the novelty wears off, I hope the students will see us as normal residents,” Son said. “We’re certainly not going to impose on the students or force our presence on them,

but I hope they will feel we are approachable.” Although the couple’s new apartment is located in Boaz Hall, Son says they don’t have any reservations about moving into the dorm. “Some people I speak with, particularly students, think I’m crazy for bringing a young family into a college dorm. Boaz Hall, in particular, has a certain notoriety on campus. I think we know what we’re getting into, and we’ll be ok with it,” Son said. For Son, one of the perks provided by living on campus is the easy five-minute walk to work. In addition to location, on-campus living will provide Son the opportunity to relate with students in an out-of-class setting, another benefit Son saw in the program. “We’re hoping to get to know the residents at a more informal level,” Son said. “I expect our relationships with the residents to be different than faculty-student relationships in a classroom or laboratory setting. At the same time, I don’t expect all the students in our commons will be open to these interactions, but that’s perfectly OK.” As for planned activities the couple has for residents, Son plans to play it by ear. However, Son says his wife loves to bake goodies and host small groups, which is something they hope to do with residents. According to Son, him and his wife are also regular runners and would possibly want to organize a running group. “I expect we’ll host small groups on a routine basis,” Son said. “We’d also like to take small groups to attend various campus events in which our commons’ residents are participating. My wife and I also go running on a regular basis, so maybe we’ll organize a weekly ‘running and coffee’ morning event. There are many possibilities.”

This year, Brittany Merrill Underwood (’06) received the Emerging Leader Award, an award given to outstanding alums that have graduated within 10 years, for founding her own organization, the Ugandan American Partnership Organization, among other things. “It’s the signature event that the alumni do and it recognizes the outstanding accomplishments and contributions of alumni of any age. It’s a pretty big who’s who that graduated from the Hilltop,” said Melson, who is presiding over this year’s DAA. “Underwood is a great gal. She’s only been out of school 10 years and she’s making a huge difference in third world countries.” Distinguished alum William Joyce (’81) will host a special screening of his Academy Award-winning short film, “The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore,” as well as a book signing of his two latest books, “The Mischievians” and “The Sandman and the War of Dream,” in Centennial Hall at 4:30 p.m. Friday. Joyce has also been selected as the Parade Grand Marshall. The fun marches on as the Mustang Band hosts a favorite SMU tradition Friday night, The Pigskin Revue. Held in McFarlin Auditorium at 8:15 p.m., the Revue is an SMU community favorite. “Pigskin review is a huge tradition at SMU that goes back decades. I’m excited because it is a great way to kick-start the homecoming weekend,” Ashlyn Casto (’14) said. “It gives the SMU community an opportunity to come together and show our school spirit by supporting our fellow students. The band is always fantastic and it is always fun to see different SMU talent.” Saturday is the most anticipated day of Homecoming. In addition to the football game and the Boulevard, it is the Homecoming parade. At 11 a.m. Saturday the Parade Grand Marshall will lead the procession of SMU’s

organizations and their floats down Hillcrest Road to Bishop Boulevard. With each float telling its own story, the parade is sure to look like a marching wonderland. As the parade reaches its final destination, the official Homecoming Boulevard begins with the SMU v. Temple game at 2 p.m. Although SMU never has a problem getting people to boulevard, game attendance has room for improvement. According to Melson, when she was at SMU, Ford Stadium had yet to be built so the Mustangs played at the Cotton Bowl in Fair Park. Even though they had to travel by bus to get to the games, Melson said that there were more people at the Cotton Bowl than there are at Ford.

“I’m hopeful that the student body will see the fun of being at the games and stay through the games. We had to travel far but interestingly enough we had more students at the Cotton Bowl than there are at Ford Stadium,” said Melson. “I think you all are turning the corner on how good it’s going to be. I’ll tell you what the difference maker will probably be – the new residential housing areas. I think that will build camaraderie and connection to the university stronger than you’ve seen before. The best is yet to come.” SMU’s new Residential Commons and Faculty-inResidence Program that debuts next year marks a new chapter for the university. Like Melson, many

are hopeful that the new commons and program will continue to strengthen the quality of SMU. Although it won’t be in full swing until next year, Jeff Grim, assistant director of academic initiatives in resident life, has already integrated the program into this year’s Homecoming boulevard. “We are really excited to have a presence at the Boulevard on homecoming so we can share the exciting plans of the Residential Commons with current faculty, staff, and students along with community members and alumni,” Grim said. “I am positive alumni will find the transformation of the residential experience to be a positive movement for SMU as we continue to be a world-class university. The Boulevard is the

place to reach all of SMU – so we are going to be there with Cane’s, student leaders and lots of information.” Following the Boulevard is the All Greek Step Show in the Mack Ballroom of Umphrey Lee at 7 p.m. Admission is $5. “This year will be my first time attending the step show,” Valerie Rhomberg (‘14) said. “I’m really excited because everyone who’s been [to it] or who’s in it always says its so much fun so it’s one of the things I’m really looking forward to this weekend.” As the weekend draws to a close, the Perot Museum of Nature and Science invites the SMU community to come to SMU Day and receive discounted prices Sunday.

Although the Oct. 27 closes another homecoming weekend for SMU, the traditions and memories made remain in the community and will continue to carry the spirit of SMU through the rest of its story. “I think Homecoming for SMU is a time for every part of the SMU community to come together and be reminded of the collective strength of SMU,” said Student Foundation President, Antonea Bastain (’13). “It’s a tradition that allows for students, faculty, staff, and alumni to remember what they love about SMU and how that has or hasn’t changed over time. Over the years, the longer you are a part of SMU, the more SMU is a part of you and Homecoming is an exciting way to celebrate that.”

One cannot help but think of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in “All the President’s Men” — tireless crusaders of truth against an evil government for the sake of the public. There’s no greater canon for journalists, or stereotype for that matter. Journalism’s milestones today, like all milestones today, are shrouded in uncertainty. Is WikiLeaks a public boon or diplomatic nightmare? Is editor-in-chief and founder Julian Assange a hero or selfish glory-seeker? “The Fifth Estate” plays with and sustains this tone of uncertainty for the entire duration of the dramatic thriller. The film, based on a true story,

explores the controversial newsleaking website, WikiLeaks. Benedict Cumberbatch’s take on Assange is surprisingly warm, even humorous. Women fall for him, men clutch themselves in false-dismissal – a real avatar of cool for geekdom. He’s also eccentric, mean, rude, sanctimonious and even a little sensitive. One choice Assange retort to a cow farmer’s “insult”: “Do you milk those yourself or do you get someone else to do it for you,” followed by a jerking motion. Assange needs a person practical enough to balance out his creative purity — enter Daniel Bruhl as former WikiLeaks spokesperson Daniel Domscheit-Berg. Domscheit-Berg’s character perhaps receives the most sympathetic portrayal here. His belief in Assange never becomes sycophantic, somehow keeping his life in order amid constant threat until his morals finally destroy his

relationship with Assange. “The Fifth Estate” exists in a curious place among its peers. Films that touch on the here and now are arguably more open to interpretation than ever. “The Social Network” (2010) is a good comparison — the film about Harvard student and future Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg shares similarities in the deceptively warm visual tones, arrogant history makers and a buzzing controversy. “The Fifth Estate” ups the ante, actively calling out audiences to judge matters for themselves. This is Generation Y of course, Y as in You. This is a rewarding movie, honoring WikiLeaks’ goal while painting its founder as an egotist with good intentions. Oh, and do not worry about the two-hour length — there’s enough meat to latch onto until the credits roll. “The Fifth Estate” is now in theaters.

‘Slavs!’ wins over audience with debut performance caleb wossen A&E Staff Writer cwossen@smu.edu The Margo Jones Theatre was filled Wednesday night with people eager to see the debut of the Meadows’ production of “Slavs!: Thinking About the Longstanding Problems of Virtue and Happiness.” Directed by Rhonda Blair, professor in the Division of Theatre, the play is performed by students in the Meadows Division of Theatre. The few who couldn’t obtain a ticket stared crestfallen as snow fakes — fake snow, that is — collected in the audience. The play is by Tony Kushner, a self-described “man of the left,” and is a hilarious and layered meditation on the disappointment of Russian Socialism. The actors perform superbly,

coloring in the full face of a failing USSR. Mrs. Domik (Lauren Mishoe) is a profane mother to a girl with birth defects, a consequence of the Soviet nuclear program. Mishoe is an intimidating presence on stage, every gaze and curse bullying the crowd to laugh or tense up. Meanwhile, “Poppy” (Russell Jones) is a suit-and-tie sad sack yearning for the affection of a tough lesbian. Barbie Wu shines here as Katherina, a bawdy drunk made insecure by her reluctant lover, Bonfila the doctor (Kelsey Smith). Wu and Smith share the racier scenes in this production, chugging vodka, praying for vodka, and passionately making out between sips of vodka. Their chemistry onstage is easily the highlight of the performance.

Rivaling their chemistry is the banter between Serge and Aleksii, wizened dreamers let down by the reality of Soviet Russia. Fun fact: Aleskii’s middle name Antedeluvianovich is Russian for “before the fall,” ideal for an old man complaining about the old days. Andrew Gonzales and Joshua Kumler shine in their roles respectively, doddering anxiously debating the outcome of the nation’s affairs. Special mentions go to Alyssa Hamedi as Vodya Domik. Her vacant eyes and dead body language smartly set up the audience for the weight of her brief speaking performance near the end. The audience that night gave a standing ovation. “I was pleased with the performances, the set, everything,” said Austin

Wolverines to meet Mustangs in 2018 Women look to

A high-profile opponent was just added to the SMU Mustang football team’s schedule in 2018. That opponent: the University of Michigan Wolverines of the Big Ten Conference. "While it's still several years down the road, we're excited about this game," SMU Athletic Director Rick Hart said. "It will give us a chance to showcase our team and university on a national stage and will allow our student-athletes a chance to compete in one of college football's legendary stadiums." The Wolverines are just part of a great group of teams SMU will have to face within the next five years. Along with the Maize and Blue on Sept. 15, 2018, the Mustangs will face off against the likes of Baylor University three times, Texas A&M University once more next season, and rival Texas Christian University, although these games are still subject to changes. It will have been over two decades since the last time the Mustangs have met with an opponent from the Conference

based in the Midwest, losing to the University of Wisconsin 42-0 in September 1995. SMU has only squared off against Michigan once before, in a 27-16 Wolverine win in Ann Arbor,

Mich. back in 1963. Although it seems an average score line for today’s brand of football, the 16 points by SMU were the team’s second-highest of the season.

Hopefully for the Mustangs, the offense will bring a little more firepower to one of college football’s most historic venues in Michigan Stadium nearly five years from now.

The SMU women’s volleyball team hosts American Athletic Conference rival University of Houston Friday at 7 p.m. in Dedman Center. The Houston game marks the halfway point for the Mustangs’ conference play. The Mustangs and the Cougars are tied in fourth place in the league. Both teams have 5-3 records for conference play after both losing to Temple University, University of Louisville and University of South Florida. The Mustangs enter Friday’s match ranked No. 2 in hitting percentage, .238, against conference teams. The Mustangs also rank with 13.45 kills per set and an opponent hitting percentage, .149. Junior outside hitter Caroline Young leads the team with kills per set (3.46) and is second against conference rivals with 3.72 kills per set. Young ranks in hitting

(.344) in league matches as well. Offensively, Houston ranks in the bottom half of the league, even though first-year Sarita Mikals leads the Cougars with 281 kills and is ranked No. 6 in the conference with 3.35 per set. The Cougars have a four spot advantage over SMU in conference matches with a No. 5 ranking of 16.70 digs per set. Both teams are at the top of the league with 43 aces each. This will be the 22nd time the Mustangs will play the Cougars. The Cougars have won 11 of the 22 matches; however, they have not had the best luck in Dallas in the recent past. The Mustangs have won 10 of the last 14 matches against former Conference USA rivals, including five consecutive wins in Dallas. Following Friday night’s game, the SMU will be back in action the first weekend of November against Rutgers University and the University of Connecticut at home before hitting the road for the majority of their remaining matches.

Commentary

Pouring on the scoring Matthew Costa Associate Sports Editor mcosta@smu.edu

Ben Ohene/ The Daily Campus

SMU tailback Traylon Shead has 174 rushing yard with two tuchdown on 46 attempts in three games.

Mustangs host Temple for Homecoming week billy embody Staff Writer wembody@smu.edu With their first American Athletic Conference win under their belts after beating Memphis, the SMU football team turns their attention to the Temple University Owls, who come to Ford Stadium this weekend. The 1-6 Owls got their first win of the year against The Army Black Knights last weekend, 33-14. While it was the Owls’ first win, the team has been in every game this season. “Well they’ve been in every game that they’ve played. We’re going to have to do everything right,” SMU Head Coach June Jones said. “They’re a step up in talent than what we’ve been playing being an ex-Big East type team.” The Owls changed quarterbacks in the third game,

when Connor Reilly was replaced by true first-year PJ Walker, who has steadily improved with more experience. Walker has thrown for over 200 yards in each of the last two games, with four touchdowns and two interceptions as well as taking more of a running role in the offense, rushing for 75 yards. One way Temple will be able to take some of the pressure off of Walker is if the Owls are able to establish a rushing attack with running backs Zaire Williams and Kenneth Harper, who are averaging 5.1 yards and 4.7 yards per carry respectively. Senior quarterback Garrett Gilbert has improved over the course of the season and, although he threw an interception, he hit more vertical routes and was more aggressive, throwing for 321 yards and two touchdowns. Even though Gilbert has been playing well, running back Traylon

Shead and receiver JaBryce Taylor fumbled last week so SMU will have to take better care of the ball. Last week, SMU turned the ball over three times, resulting in two touchdowns that allowed Memphis to get back into the game and Jones recognizes that it’s important for SMU to hang onto the ball. “We’re going to have to play well and not turn the ball over and do the things that we did on the road against Memphis if we expect to win this one,” Jones said. The SMU defense on the other hand, had a monster game from defensive end Beau Barnes, who had two sacks, 4.5 tackles for loss and an interception. If SMU can force that type of pressure on Walker, it could be a very long day for the Owls on offense. The game kicks off at 2:00 p.m. and is televised on ESPN3.

Football has become a monster. Nothing else in America can slow its insatiable wrath. Baseball has almost given up with the gimmicks of trying to compete. Basketball relies too heavily on the same teams and individual talents for each new decade. Hockey’s decline is nothing short of laughable in the face of supreme talent. How did this happen so quickly? Was it some sort of drug every red-blooded American took overnight? Did former NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle’s last gasp of air on this earth curse every other major sport in the U.S. to a battle for second place? The answer is as simple as it is beautiful: the points and production of the on-field talent in the National Football League have never been bigger or better, and the statistics prove it. In the history of the most popular domestic league going today, never before have offenses dominated against defenses quite like they are now. Through week seven of the 2013 season, games are showing more points (23.1) per contest than ever, while total yards and plays have also spiked, according to Pro-football-reference.com. The average number of points in a contest has steadily increased over the last eight seasons, growing from barely over 20 per

outing to what it is now. This may not seem like much, but ask any bookie in Las Vegas, and I’m sure you’ll quickly discover how impactful a field goal difference can be. So what exactly happened in the league that got its respectability from low-scoring, hard-hitting contests where bloody noses reigned supreme? This one may be even simpler than the last question. Quarterbacks are so much better than anything the sport has ever seen. Offenses are so complex and yet the best signal-callers of today’s time are so much better than any of their predecessors that the increase in statistical output is almost expected. For example, before 1999 there had only been one quarterback in professional football history who had thrown for more than 5,000 yards and 40 touchdown passes, Dan Marino. By 2013, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Matthew Stafford, Kurt Warner and Aaron Rodgers have all done at least one of the two, and all within the past 15 seasons. Countless other quarterbacks have come close to these high tallies, but all this does is go to show what used to be a good year statistically – say 3,000 yards and 25 plus touchdown passes – is now as prehistoric as baseball’s claim to America’s pastime. Games did not get longer however, which means something must’ve taken a huge step backward in terms of what plays

get called for which individuals. In other words, the people who originally built this game, running backs, are going down – not literally, but in terms of how many yards and carries they will be receiving per game. Mid-way through this year, Running backs are getting fewer carries, fewer touchdowns and fewer yards than ever. While the yards per game have been worse, 107.4 in 2013 as opposed to barely over 104 back in 1994, the attempts teams call for runs have dropped by nearly a full carry and touchdowns are down a tenth to 0.7, the lowest since 2001 and tied for the worst since the AFL/NFL merger in 1970. Coaches are getting used to throwing the ball so much now, that the grittiest, gutsiest players on the football field are finding out just how replaceable they may be. With the exception of a few unprecedented talents, the NFL knows what butters its bread week in and week out. When kids walk into a stadium nowadays, they aren’t there for the excellent blocking ability of the right tackle on a half back draw; they’re there to see Manning, Robert Griffin III or Russell Wilson throw the ball around like a toy and put up points in bunches. The NFL is a creature that can’t seem to be stopped. A ruthless predator that has so much going for it, but the best trait of all is that the monster looks as beautiful as ever.

Law and Order: Washington Edition zain haidar Contributing Writer zhaidar@smu.edu Denial is not just a river in Egypt. With deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi standing trial in November, I’m ashamed we haven’t followed in Cairo’s footsteps and thrown our representatives in a cell. After the government shutdown, all I heard were empty complaints and lame jokes about Congress (seriously, no more Boehner puns please), but not once did I hear someone suggest we hold the government accountable. Grab your pitchforks, find your gavels and put on your black robes, it’s time to put the U.S. government on trial. Flip to whatever channel Nancy Grace is currently yelling on, someone pin down Judge Judy, and get me as many powdered wigs as possible — I’m about to make history. Order! Court is now in session. The dishonorable (and disreputable) Judge Haidar is presiding in the case of America vs. The Federal Government. How does The Federal Government plead? They can’t reach a consensus? That’s typical. Let me take care of this. The Federal Government pleads guilty on multiple counts of disturbing the peace, conspiracy to defraud the American people, failing to govern (come on guys, this part’s even in your name) and general negligence. Bailiff, please bring the Speaker of the House to the stand for judgment. Boehner, take the cigarette out of your mouth; you can’t smoke inside federal buildings. Don’t you respect federal property? Actually don’t answer that. For failing to cooperate with House Democrats, I sentence you to repeat kindergarten for a better grasp of group dynamics (and no, if you’re “it” at recess you can’t just say the game is over until you’re not “it”). I’m also revoking your membership at Planet Tan; you’re a congressman not a carrot. Dismissed. Bailiff, bring me Senator Ted Cruz, and make sure he doesn’t carry any Dr. Seuss books to the stand. Senator Cruz, for egging on the House with continued resolutions to block Obamacare, I sentence you to a lifetime of eating green eggs and ham for every meal. For fraternizing with Tea Party radicals and pushing more than 800,000 federal employees out of work for 16 days, I revoke your right to sweetened tea, and you will forfeit 50% percent of

your annual income to social security (what you might know as the Communist billfold). Try to get by as a congressman in Texas without sugar in your tea, that’s nearly punishment enough. Dismissed. Yes, I’m cruel, but I’m also fair. Bailiff, fetch me the Democrats. If you can’t find them, check the local golf course. President Obama, I sentence you to a month in solitary confinement in Gitmo where your only source of entertainment will be your own speeches. After that period of time, I hope you’ll come to realize that sometimes actions trump words. Dismissed. Congressman Harry Reid, for playing a part in the loss of billions of dollars during the shutdown, I sentence you to a life of dealing with Nancy Pelosi (too cruel?). The trial is now adjourned. There won’t be a recess, because in my eyes, the government has had enough play time. There won’t be a jury either. The last time you left decision making up to a room full of angry men, our Federal Government stopped working for over two weeks. In Egypt protests actually lead to change. The process can get bloody, but when Middle Eastern leaders aren’t up to snuff, they live in fear of getting snuffed. I’m not proposing anything that violent, like say a public lashing of every congressman. I’m suggesting widespread public humiliation. I’m suggesting we critique our government with both our words and our actions to show them that holding the government hostage days away from a debt ceiling deadline is unacceptable. I’m not the only one who dislikes the government at this point. Let’s face it, the government dislikes government so much it decided to stop operating rather than continue to humiliate itself with public displays of ineptitude. While I do agree with the government that there shouldn’t be a government, shutting down outright is not the way to go. As for a punishment to fit the bill, you can’t negotiate with terrorists (and holding federal jobs at political gunpoint is terrorism). To really get the message across, let’s refuse to reelect those who failed to serve rather than watch our representatives collapse in on themselves. Congress, read my lips; no second chances. Haidar is a junior majoring in journalism.

Beer in Ford Stadium not a home field advantage david blewett SMU Alumnus One of the things that I have learned with certainty is that change happens. For example, despite my hard fought denials, this year’s SMU Homecoming will represent the 25th anniversary of my 1988 graduating class and the fact that many of us now have our own college aged children. We have all changed. When I think back to the mid1980s and my time as an SMU football player and then survey the campus today, it is impossible not to recognize just how much SMU and our football program have changed too. We wore blue jerseys, played our historical rivals in one of the strongest conferences in the country (The Southwest Conference), and played home games at Irving’s Texas Stadium in front of 60 thousand fans. Today we wear red jerseys, rarely play our historical rivals, have wandered through two lesser conferences before landing in the newly created American Athletic Conference, and play home games on campus at 32 thousand capacity Ford Stadium. Not everything has changed though. One of the things that has been a constant over the years is the controversy surrounding beer sales at home games and whether or not it affects our attendance. Back in the ‘80s “beer buses”

transported students from campus to Irving in a sort of rolling tailgate party. Once inside the “dry” stadium, no alcohol was sold and the party toned down a bit. Fans could not leave the stadium to go back and forth to the buses and their beer. So, for the most part the party inside the stadium was centered on the action on the field. We did our best to deliver, but I remember many times looking up at the student section and noting how they were more busy socializing than cheering for us. This didn’t bother anybody. Bottom line they were having fun, they were there and we appreciated it. I don’t think the lack of alcohol in the stadium affected our high attendance numbers. Of course the buses weren’t leaving until the game was over, so we had a kind of captive audience. In recent years our old rolling

tailgates have been replaced with on campus “Boulevarding” and it seems to me that the food, beverages, bathroom facilities and environment are all much improved. At game time fans are supposed to walk the short distance from Bishop Boulevard to Ford Stadium, but I confess sometimes it is difficult to break off from the socializing and the fun to catch the opening kickoff. When I look around, I see thousands of fellow Mustang fans still on the Boulevard with the same problem. The Boulevard has developed a kind of captive audience of its own. To encourage fans to leave the Boulevard, some have pushed the need to sell beer inside Ford Stadium. Most likely beer sales would be attractive to some fans, but it is just as likely it would drive other fans away. The strategy we choose to draw our fans into Ford should focus

on things we all agree on and not on things that will divide us. We need to make sure we continue to improve our play and put an entertaining and winning product on the field. We need to create a better team relationship between the coaches and players, and us fans. And we also need to continue to improve the fan experience inside the stadium. These objectives can be met and offer a higher probability of success than the hope that beer sales will fill up our stadium. Things do change, and maybe someday we should sell beer in Ford Stadium. But I would much prefer we do it because we want to and not because we think we need to. David Blewett is a former SMU football player and author of “The Pony Trap: Escaping the 1987 Death Penalty.”

social media

Student admits to obsessing over Facebook persona brandon bub Contributing Writer bbub@smu.edu I am a Facebook narcissist. My account is set up to never log me out, so I can begin every morning by hopping out of bed and checking if I have any new notifications. I agonize over my Facebook statuses; anything that does not get at least 10 “likes” from my friends might as well be considered a failure of an update. If I ever have a free moment in public and have no one to talk to, my instinct is to pull out my phone and boot up the Facebook app. Like the Greek mythological character for whom narcissism is named, I might check Facebook again as soon as 30 seconds after I’ve locked my phone, as if I’d forgotten what my newsfeed looks like.

I could be worse. I only post things I believe people will find funny or interesting. I avoid posting selfies, complaints about my day, pictures of what I had for dinner or bland Bible verses. I similarly do not use Twitter or Snapchat. However, I am clearly a whore for Facebook “likes.” For digital natives like me, social media accounts do not so much reflect our identities as they do help construct them. In one sense, the persona we broadcast from our Facebook accounts can hardly be considered “real.” We get to pick the most flattering profile picture we want, and if someone tags us in an image where we look particularly ugly, we can simply remove it. We can present ourselves to the world in the most sanitized way possible. A couple might post a series of photos of themselves looking happier than ever, but they could

break up the next day without ever making the world aware of the problems they were dealing with. And yet, in another sense, we’re allowed an authenticity we could only dream of in faceto-face interaction. Some of the most profound conversations I’ve ever had with my friends happened over Facebook messenger. There is always time to find the right word for the right situation when you have unlimited time to respond. One day, historians will likely glean the Facebook Chat histories of public figures in the same way they study handwritten letters and printed documents today. It’s striking just how much of ourselves we’ll make visible to the world. I find it hard to make a value judgment about this phenomenon. People score all sorts of conversational points talking about how Facebook is ruining our ability to truly connect with those

around us, but newsmagazines have been decrying the “pace of modern life” since the Gilded Age. I know I spend far too much time on Facebook and my life ought to amount to more than winning “likes” from people I barely know, but I consider my account a necessary evil. What interests me more is what will eventually come to replace it: one day receiving a Facebook message from a friend will seem as quaint as getting a calligraphic letter. By that point I’m sure we’ll have figured out how to upload our personalities onto computer drives and will have formed a unified digital consciousness, with Ray Kurzweil worshiped as the one true God. If nothing else, we might at least obviate the need for selfies. Bub is a senior majoring in history, English and political science.

Frazier a Mustang Mauled by Memphis for the right reasons Caty Welch Contributing Writer cwelch@smu.edu

Addison Bolin Contributing Writer abolin@smu.edu SMU basketball fans have more than their big-name coach to thank for landing first-year Keith Frazier last spring. The 6-foot-5-inch shooting guard chose SMU over other top offers not only for their firstclass coaching staff, but more importantly, his son – who helped the Mustangs seal the deal on their top recruit. “I have a son,” Frazier said. “I have family here and I wanted to stay close to family.” Frazier’s 1-year-old son KJ, short for Keith Junior, was one of the most influential factors in his decision. With close proximity to family as a top priority, it’s no surprise that SMU was at the top of the Dallas native’s list. “For him to make a commitment to come here is remarkable with the options he had,” Head Coach Larry Brown told the Dallas Morning News. Frazier received offers from Texas A&M University and Texas Tech University before committing to SMU. Although he put family first, Frazier didn’t ignore the fact that Brown was a significant game changer. “With Larry Brown being a Hall of Fame coach and him being right in my backyard, I felt like it would be a good spot for me,” Frazier said. When the Hall of Fame legend joined the Mustang community last year, he brought with him high expectations for the future of SMU basketball. Visions of winning seasons were in the air and for good reason considering Brown’s track record. No stranger to success, Brown is the only coach in history to win national championships in both the NCAA (University of Kansas, 1988) and the NBA (Detroit Pistons, 2004). With that kind of record, SMU fans were in high spirits at the start of 2012 season. Contrary to hopeful predictions, the Mustangs ended the ‘12- ‘13 season 15-17. With Brown’s success behind him, he made the move to SMU last fall, knowing full well that it was (and still is) a program that has only had one winning season since 2003 and hasn’t made the NCAA tournament since 1993.

Larry Brown began his time coaching for the SMU Mustangs in 2012.

He jumped in confidently, knowing it was going to take more than a year to turn the team around. With last year’s recruiting class already set prior to Brown’s arrival, he was left with little time to recruit players of his own. As it turned out, he didn’t have much to worry about. The high-profile coach coming back to the college coaching scene for the first time in 24 years was enough to spark player interest. For some, it was enough to prompt a transfer to SMU that summer, in time for the 2012 season. Ranked by Rivals.com as the fourth-best shooting guard, Frazier is definitely someone to keep an eye on this season, especially if his high school career is any indication of what he’s capable of. The Kimball High School standout averaged 23.2 points per game and shot 42 percent from the arc last year. High school statistics are one thing, but what can SMU fans realistically expect to see from Frazier this season? “I hope to see [Frazier] live up to the hype that is surrounding him and become an elite player on both sides of the ball. The team will most likely need him to play a position on the wing where he can have opportunities to score the ball off the dribble and with his perimeter shooting,” said SMU men’s basketball Senior Team Manager, Evan Kavanagh. A question often asked of high-caliber players like Frazier is if or when they plan on entering the NBA. “Like everyone else who plays Division I college basketball, he wants to play in the NBA. Whether that can

happen after his [first-year] season or ever is really up to him and his performance on and off the floor,” Kavanagh said. The addition of Brown’s new recruits increasing the team’s scoring capability isn’t the only change fans will see from last year. “Last season the starting five averaged 32 minutes a game,” Kavanagh said. “Which is extremely high.” According to KenPom.com, the SMU starters played a higher percentage of minutes than any team in the country last year. The Mustangs will have more substitution power with their 15man roster of 2012-13. Although they’re not quite there yet, with the help of Frazier, the rest of the Mustang roster and prospective recruits, Kavanagh believes the future of SMU basketball looks bright. “With Emmanuel Mudiay, the number five prospect for the Class of 2014, verbally committed and hopefully more big names to come, SMU will look to improve with new young talent every year from here on out.”

The SMU men’s soccer team lost 3-2 to the University of Memphis Tigers in an away game Wednesday night. The loss follows last Saturday’s 0-0 tie with American Athletic Conference opponent University of Central Florida in double overtime. Wednesday’s loss at Mike Rose Field caused the Mustangs’ league record to fall to 2-2-2 for the season. The Tigers (9-6-1) improved to 3-4 in AAC play. The Mustangs now have a 3-9-2 overall record with the season winding down. SMU junior Andrew Morales scored the first goal of the game Wednesday night in the 16th minute with a shot inside the sixyard box. Assists were credited to sophomores Eddie Puskarich and Will Smith, putting the Mustangs in the lead for much of the first half. It was not until the 38th minute that senior forward Mark Sherrod scored the first goal for the Tigers. In just over a minute Sherrod scored a second time.

The second Tigers’ goal off a header and penalty kick put Memphis in the lead 2-1 at the half. SMU senior goalkeeper Jaime Ibarra had three saves in the first half. In the second half, Memphis had a foul inside the 18-yard box giving the Mustangs a chance to even the score. SMU sophomore forward Alfred Koroma scored a goal off of a penalty kick in the 51st minute of the match marking his fourth goal of the season. The Tigers gained the lead again in the 59th minute when first-year forward Jordan Klipsch scored on a loose ball with assists from midfielder Liam Collins and defender JJ Greer. The Tigers held onto the lead for the remainder of the game. SMU outshot Memphis in the match, 14-10; however, Memphis led 6-5 with shots on goal. Memphis also finished with a 6-5 lead in corners. At the end of the game the Mustangs had 11 fouls while the Tigers finished with 15. Sophomore Koroma had a pair of shots on frame. Morales, Nembhard and Damian Rosales

crews competing in six races, including a first-year 8+ group looking for its second win of the year. After a successful start in the Head of the Oklahoma Regatta earlier this month, the races in Austin should be a great gauge for the rest of SMU’s season.
