Racist texts lead to suspension OU student disciplined following UPenn incident STAFF REPORTS

OU President David Boren has suspended an OU student for involvement in an incident at the University of Pennsylvania in which black students were added to a GroupMe rife with racial slurs and graphic images.

The University of Pennsylvania said the messages appear to have originated in Oklahoma. Boren said in a statement, however, that the messages do not seem to have not originated at OU. Read his full statement below: “The University of Oklahoma has made it clear that we will not tolerate racism or hate speech that constitutes a threat to our campus or others. We have a record of taking swift action once

all of the facts are known. I have ordered the appropriate officials at our university to open immediate inquiry to determine the extent of involvement by a University of Oklahoma student in this matter. The university has already determined in its preliminary inquiry that there’s a basis for a temporary suspension of the student under our student code while we continue to gather all of the facts.

That suspension is effective immediately. It would appear this matter did not originate at The University of Oklahoma, but started elsewhere. This matter originally surfaced from messages to students at the University of Pennsylvania. We are notifying the University of Pennsylvania of our finding.” The identity of the OU student who was suspended has not been released and is unknown.

According to The Daily Pennsylvanian, the University of Pennsylvania’s student newspaper, one member of a GroupMe titled “Mud Men” posted a picture of lynchings and then said “I love America.” The same user also posted an event titled “Daily lynching” into the GroupMe, the paper reported.

DEDE’S JOURNEY Senior wide receiver Dede Westbrook turns back to the field after running the ball in for a touchdown Oct. 15. Westbrook had 184 receiving yards in the game against Kansas State.

Westbrook fought through injury, adversity before starring at OU

I

t was a routine play. Dede Westbrook was lined up at the safety position, poised to move at the quarterback’s word. Down. Set. Hut! Westbrook flew down the field, neck and neck with the opposing team’s receiver. In his peripheral vision, he saw the ball coming toward him and figured he had a shot at it. He jumped and reached for the ball at the same time as the receiver, and the two collided. “I kind of landed on top of him and — me being draped over him — his knee went into my stomach and he ruptured my small intestine,” Westbrook recalled. He missed the rest of his senior high school season after playing in just seven games — but he avoided the original diagnosis: Westbrook might never play again. “The doctor told me there was a huge possibility I would never play football again,” Westbrook said. “But I overcame those odds, and here I am now.” Westbrook has come a long way since his high school days. From his high school injury to making it out of Cameron, Texas, and finally to Oklahoma, Westbrook continues prove doubters wrong. “I trained like crazy to pretty much prove everybody wrong,” he said. “And that’s what I did.” SURPRISING SUCCESS Westbrook is fresh off one of the most prolific calendar months in college football history. He finished October with 881 yards and

MADELINE ROBERTS • @MADROBS_ 11 touchdowns — both Oklahoma records — and has also taken over kick return duties. He’s started to pick up national prais e, even landing some Heisman consideration. Quarterback Baker Mayfield knows how important Westbrook’s emergence has been and has started deflecting Heisman talk toward his star receiver. In the first quarter of Oklahoma’s track meet against Texas Tech in mid-October, Westbrook made his presence known. On what looked like an overthrown pass, Westbrook scored from 49 yards out, chasing down a long, deep ball in the back of the end zone from Mayfield. “I thought I missed him, but you cannot overthrow No. 11,” Mayfield said after the game. That theory has proven true for Mayfield repeatedly this season. Westbrook got healthy over the Sooners’ bye week after playing injured through the first three games. He now has 1,100 receiving yards in seven Big 12 games and leads all power five receivers with 1,254 yards on the season. He’s also second among power five receivers with 14 touchdowns, just trailing behind Washington’s John Ross, who has 15. That’s a sharp uptick in production for Westbrook, who amassed 743 yards and four scores a season ago. According to him, that’s due to a role change. “Sterling was a workhorse. He was a guy that was pretty much

the go-to guy, and I was just sitting back waiting until my number was called,” Westbrook said. “I don’t really care about the numbers. It’s exciting, but at the end of the day I just want to play football.” But as valuable as Westbrook has been to the Sooners in 2016, he was even more necessary at Cameron Yoe High School. Westbrook’s near-career-end-

“Coming from a small town, it’s really not possible for any of us to make it out. The odds are very low for us. For me to beat the odds and come out and be good at the next level feels great.” DEDE WESTBROOK, WIDE RECIEVER

ing injury happened despite the use of special pads to protect his midsection. The injury happened when the receiver’s knee came in between the pads to rupture his intestine — but the fact he had pads in the first place meant he was a special player for the Yoemen. “They run about $75 a pair,” said Rick Rhoades, Westbrook’s high school coach. “We obviously could not afford to get every one of our players the EvoShields, so

we were pretty selective in who we gave them to.” Westbrook played multiple positions for Cameron Yoe. He primarily served as a receiver, but also as a running back and a safety; in the time he spent as a running back, he averaged 12.3 yards per carry. During his safety career, he had 72 solo tackles, three interceptions and three fumble recoveries before the accident that he calls a “freak injury.” Football wasn’t the only sport Westbrook participated in. During his junior year of high school, he came in third in the state in the men’s 200m for track and field with a 23.02, his personal best. In August of his senior year of high school, he ran a 4.57 40-yard dash. OU coach Bob Stoops said that Westbrook is the fastest Sooner receiver since Mark Clayton — high praise from a coach who has seen several impact receivers come through Norman. But success on the field was never the problem for Westbrook. SMALL TOWN, BIG DREAMS Despite his success on the football and track fields, Westbrook had hurdles to clear elsewhere in life. He didn’t receive any Division I offers out of high school because he struggled in the classroom. He attended Blinn College, a junior college in Brenham, Texas, for two years before coming to OU. “He didn’t qualify to go to a Division I school, and Blinn gave

him a chance to go and get his grades in order and get his associate degree and then move on to a Division I school or four-year school,” Rhoades said. Westbrook also dominated competition at Blinn College. In his final seven games, he compiled 1,439 yards and 12 touchdowns on 72 catches. It was enough to earn him a scholarship offer from Oklahoma, which was looking for support for then-seniors Sterling Shepard and Durron Neal. He also had some assistance in getting out of Cameron, Texas — a place few escape. “His mom was a very stable force in his life,” Rhoades said. “She was pretty strict on the kids. She would do things like, at nine o’clock, she would make them put their cell phones away and things like that.” He’s one of a handful of athletes Rhoades has seen come out of Cameron, which has a population of about 5,500. “As far as (Westbrook’s) ability to catch the ball and do things in open space, he’s got to be near the top,” Rhoades said. Westbrook has proven that time and time again in 2016. “Coming from a small town, it’s really not possible for any of us to make it out,” Westbrook said. “The odds are very low for us. For me to beat the odds and come out and be good at the next level feels great.” Madeline Roberts

As the clock struck 0:00 on Oklahoma’s 45-24 win over Baylor, the Sooners gained satisfaction in defeating the Bears and trimming the list of Big 12 contenders to three, but they also know their work is far from over. The Sooners (8-2, 7-0 Big 12) controlled most of the game versus the Bears (6-3, 3-3 Big 12) and never saw their lead fall below two scores after seizing a 14-0 advantage on a 29-yard Dede Westbrook touchdown with 5:17 left in the first quarter. Baylor trimmed the deficit to 11 late in the second quar ter, but it was Westbrook again to put the game away for the Sooners. The Cameron, Texas, native went vertical and beat man-to-man coverage to stretch the Sooners’ lead to 28-10. That’s as close as the Bears would get on Saturday. “His trust in me has been crazy,” Westbrook said of his connection with Baker Mayfield. “At the beginning of the season, he trusted me, but not as much as he does now. Of course, now that I’m healthy, and when he sees a one-onone matchup, he’s going to throw the ball.” Paced by another stout ga m e f ro m May f i e l d — 300 yards on 20-of-25 passing to go with two

Oklahoma has now won seven straight and will have a chance to clinch a share of the conference title next week. Mayfield says he’s happy with how the offense is playing headed into a pivotal matchup with the Mountaineers. Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine both topped 100 rushing yards on Saturday and combined

for three touchdowns. “When you’re able to run the ball in November, it makes it easier for the offense to have success,” Mayfield said. The Sooners will take their longest trip of the season next week to play No.

If Oklahoma manages a win over the Mountaineers, it will play for the Big 12 Championship against Oklahoma State on Dec. 3.

Teachers fight for hope Awarded educator addresses failure of State Question 779 EMMA KEITH @shakeitha_97

As Oklahoma continues to become a less hospitable environment for teachers, some educators are doubting their futures in the state. With the Nov. 8 failure of State Question 779, the penny sales tax proposal, Shawn Sheehan, the 2016 Oklahoma Teacher of the Year and an algebra teacher at Norman High School, said the future is uncertain for educators. “ It ’s a d m i t t e d l y k i n d of hard to find a hope right now,â€? Sheehan said. “Teachers are feeling pretty disenchanted. Seven s e ve nt y - n i n e wa s w hat was going to provide hope to us — it was an immediate hope ... in the form of a $5,000 salary increase.â€? Sheehan was one of the original petitioners for 779 and ran for the Oklahoma Senate this year to try to implement more local change for education. After losing the election for the senate seat and 779’s failure, Sheehan said he is not confident in Oklahoma’s ability to change. “As someone who has a 2-week-old baby girl, it’s frustrating that ‌ it feels like the message from the state is ‘Hey, we’re good with what we’ve got; we’re good with the status quo,’â€? Sheehan said. “It makes for a nice talking point, how we’re behind teachers 100 percent, but we’re unwilling to do the things that it’s going to take to properly fund education.â€? Now that there are no

Shawn Sheehan, 2016 Oklahoma Teacher of the Year and former Oklahoma Senate candidate, addresses the education issue of The Daily during the Daily Talks forum Nov. 3. Sheehan ran for a Oklahoma senate seat but did not win the election.

“I’m certain that we’ll see teachers finish the school year — my question is what is it going to look like come June? How many teachers will have put in for jobs in Texas and in Colorado?� SHAWN SHEEHAN, OKLAHOMA TEACHER OF THE YEAR

upcoming incentives for educators to stay in Oklahoma, Sheehan said he is interested to see what choices teachers will make come June. “I’m certain that we’ll see teachers finish the school year — my question is what is it going to look like come

June? How many teachers will have put in for jobs in Texas and in Colorado?� Sheehan asked. Despite his love of Norman and his job here, Sheehan said he cannot rule out the possibility of he and his family leaving Oklahoma next year.

“I think my wife and I will be considering all options. We really do want to stay — we’ve got family here. This is our home,� Sheehan said. “I’m really proud of this city, I’m proud of this community — you know, they really rallied around me. But we will be considering options, because the bottom line is it doesn’t matter what state we live in, we still have the same amount of student loan debt. “I’m 31 years old, and we’re still renting a house,� Sheehan said. “We really do want to be able to establish

roots, so I wouldn’t say that looking at other options out of state is out of the question. Our preference is that we really do want to stay here in Norman.� Until that choice comes, Sheehan said he will continue to advocate for his profession. Though many of his options have been struck down for now, Sheehan said he is still grateful to be able to do what he loves. “The good news is it’s an opportunity for me to have a concerted effort to pause, focus on my family, focus on what’s really important, and then you know, I’ll be back at it again,� Sheehan said. “I’m not going to fade into the background — people will still be hearing from Mr. Sheehan.� “ Th e k i d s at No r ma n High, they won’t be losing me, and I’m really excited — it wasn’t a loss for me,� Sheehan said. “It was gonna be a win-win — if I won my seat, I was going to get to advocate for education and all the other important issues as a legislator, and then if I didn’t, I’d still get to do the job that I love, that I’m really good at. I still get to teach math. That is totally fine for me.� Sheehan also encouraged his fellow educators and said they should keep in mind that the kids they teach are the most important part of their work. “I guess my message to educators is to not give up hope and keep fighting the good fight,� Sheehan said. “Like I was saying earlier, it’s back to the drawing board for us, so let’s see what else we can do.� Emma Keith

The parking lot remained open while police and medical personnel removed the body from the car, though an area of cars was blocked off with police tape. No OU Alert was sent about the incident. The Daily is working to learn more information about the incident, including the cause of the man’s death, and will post online as soon as that information becomes available.

A 51-year-old male from Lawton, Oklahoma, was found dead in a running vehicle in the Dale Hall parking lot on the morning of Nov. 11.

OU students plan to gather to write thank-you notes for area educators OU students will have the chance to write thank-you notes to teachers following the failure of State Question 779 at an event Thursday. International studies senior Lucy Mahaffey said the goal is to write at least 420 thank-you notes for Norman-area high school teachers, and if there are some left, they will be delivered to other schools. Mahaffey said she planned the event after speaking with a friend about the outcome of the state questions. “One of my friends and I were talking, and no matter what side of the political spectrum you’re on, this election has been trying for the whole country,â€? Mahaffey said. “My friend said, ‘Hey, what if we just write a few thank-you notes to our Norman North teachers?’ And we said, ‘Oh yeah, that’ll be super easy.’â€? Mahaffey went on to send emails and create a Facebook page for the event to encourage students to come by and write a thank-you card. Mahaffey said her grandma, a retired teacher, baked cookies for the event as well. “I think everybody has had that one teacher that impacted them, challenged them,â€? Mahaffey said. “So I think it takes ďŹ ve minutes. We’ll have my grandma’s cookies, and we’re providing the thank-you notes.â€? The event will be from 7 to 10 p.m. in the Freeland Food Court of the Oklahoma Memorial Union. Emma Keith contributed to this report. Kayla Branch, @kayla_branch

Sexually explicit sign hanging near campus alludes to Baylor’s scandal

A sexually explicit sign was seen hanging outside a house close to OU campus on Duffy Street near Jenkins Avenue. The sign reads “We run more trains than Baylor,� referencing Baylor’s long-standing sexual assault scandal in which its athletic department has failed to report allegations of sexual misconduct with the university.

Students to share bikes, save bucks SGA prepares to implement student transit program KAYLA BRANCH @kayla_branch

In coming months, OU will implement a bike share program with 75 bikes and 10 racks to be distributed across campus. The final contracts are in the works and the program will soon appear on campus as a joint effort from the Student Government Association and Parking S e r v i c e s, s a i d S t u d e n t Government Association President Daniel Pae. “We’re working right now on finalizing the contract with the company we’ve selected, and then we’ll move forward in contacting the company and having them come and install the bikes,� Pae said. “So hopefully by the end of this month (it will be finalized), and then we will proceed with getting them installed shortly after that.� The process was a long one, but the program will be an additional resource for those on campus, Pae said. “It’s taken a while to get it started because we needed to work with Parking Services to determine how it was going to be paid for, how many bikes there would be, whether the City of Norman would potentially be a partner in this,� Pae said. “We’re excited, and we think it will be a great investment on the campus and a great resource for students who are looking for alternative means of transportation on campus, and we are very excited to see how it will grow moving forward.� Kade Kordonowy, finance and economics sophomore and assistant director in the

PAXSON HAWS/THE DAILY

Students ride their bikes to and from classes in the bike lane on the South Oval Friday. OU will begin a bike share program which will allow students to use the bikes for free.

Department of Interior for SGA, said the locations for the racks are uncertain, but the tentative list includes “high-traffic� spots like the Oklahoma Memorial Union, the Duck Pond parking lot, the student dormitories and Sarkeys Energy Center. “The purpose of the program is so students don’t have to drive everywhere and kind of alleviate some of the parking problems we have on campus,� Kordonowy said. “We also have a big problem with bikes being left at the end of the semester because students just go buy a cheap bike they can ride to class, but they don’t want to deal with

taking it home. We can avoid a lot of those problems.� Kordonowy said the bike share will be free and user-friendly — simply requiring students to create an account and rent out a bike for an allotted period of time. “Students will have an account, and they’ll have a user code and a password,� Kordonowy said. “On the back of the bikes, there’s a little keypad, and you’ll enter your code and password, check out a bike and ride it wherever you want.� The program will be funded by the student activity fee reserve fund — the account for leftover student activity

fees — for the first two years, Kordonowy said. Pae said funding after the initial two years will be sourced through administration, and if the program is successful, the City of Norman staff has said it would consider implementing a similar program throughout the city. “I would say at the end of the two years, if it’s been robustly used by the student body, then I think that would be the time for the city to convene and decide whether to implement it or not,� Pae said. “So hypothetically, you could ride your bike from Traditions West to Main Street potentially in the future.�

Director of OU Parking and Transportation Doug Myers said Parking Services was happy to work with SGA and is looking forward to the bike share starting on campus. “We are excitedly waiting to implement the program as it will complement our parking and transportation efforts, including smarter parking through the OU Innovate app, campus parking initiatives and the CART system,� Myers said. Parking Services will oversee the program and continue to work with SGA, Myers said. Pae said this is one of many projects SGA has been

working on, and he hopes students will view SGA as a hub of positive change on campus. “It is certainly humbling to see how far we have progressed in this project, along with other projects — pre-finals week reform, the food pantry, student legal services program,� Pae said. “When people ask, ‘What does SGA do?’ I think of those things — that’s what SGA does. It can make meaningful, tangible changes happen with the right kind of leadership and attitude.� Kayla Branch

International scholar enrollment earns OU fourth annual Davis Cup

OU has been awarded the Davis Cup for the fourth consecutive year in recognition of a record-setting number of Davis United World College Scholars, according to a press release. The Davis UWC Scholars program was created in 2000 to promote international diversity and global engagement among students at U.S. colleges, according to the Davis UWC website. The program offers college scholarships to graduates of the 16 United World Colleges worldwide, which provide select high school students from around the world with a two-year international baccalaureate education focused on a holistic curriculum and diverse experiences, according to the website. Fifty-six freshmen scholars enrolled at OU this fall, contributing to an all-time high of 189 total Davis UWC Scholars currently at the university, according to the press release. “We are absolutely blown away by the University of Oklahoma’s outstanding results in recent years and send our congratulations to President David Boren and his team for their unrivaled performance in winning the Davis Cup for the fourth straight year,� said Shelby M.C.

President-elect Donald Trump has said he wants to overturn the Roe v. Wade court decision, but lawyers say this will be a hard task to accomplish. In the third presidential debate Oct. 19, Trump said the decision reversal would happen “automatically.� However, OU law professor Rick Tepker said U.S. presidents do not have the power to overturn the ruling on Roe v. Wade on their own. Tepker said Trump mu st ap p o i nt Su p re m e Court justices who will vote to overturn it. Tepker said in order to overturn the decision, four Supreme Court justices would have to vote to take

Wade would mean turning the issue of abortion back to state-level politics, allowing states to possibly take steps to abolish it, impose criminal sanctions and revoke doctors’ credentials. “Americans have grown accustomed to it ; they’ve relied upon it,� Tepker said. “The bigger question, the more influential question, is whether there will be a decision to override a case despite all that generational reliance on the choice.� Z o e L e v i n e , s t a f f a ttorney for the Center for Reproductive Rights, is part of the legal team representing Larry Burns, the medical director of Norman’s

Fraternity feeds kids in Malawi Mary’s Meals’ OU chapter inspires frat to fundraise MOLLY KRUSE @mollykruse98

Members of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity rec e n t l y s u r p r i s e d a l i ttle-known philanthropic organization on campus, Mary’s Meals, with a $1,600 donation. The donation will provide meals for 82 children for a year, which will give them an opportunity to go to school. Courtney Lawson, public relations senior and president of the OU chapter of Mary’s Meals, said Mary’s Meals is a global organization that strives to build school kitchens in developing nations, predominantly in Malawi, Africa. The addition of a kitchen gives children an incentive and the opportunity to get an education, said Lawson. “It allows (the children) to go to school because they (think), ‘I’m going to get one meal today,’ and this ultimately allows them to get an education so they can end the cycle of poverty,” Lawson said. OU is the first college in the U.S. to have a Mary’s Meals chapter, Laws on said. The OU chapter of the organization was started by students Olivia Gray and Maegan Escamilla in January 2013. Gray, who has since graduated and moved away, became involved with Mary’s Meals her s enior year of high school, she said.

The Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity poses with the OU chapter of Mary’s Meals after raising $1,608.03 to feed 82 children in Malawi, Africa Nov. 6. The global organization strives to build school kitchens in developing nations and gives children an incentive and the opportunity to get an education.

“ We f u n d ra i s e d f o r Mary’s Meals, and within a few months we had raised enough to build a kitchen on a school in Malawi,” Gray said. “Seeing how

and to bring to a whole new audience,” she said. OU’s chapter of Mary’s Meals is small, which makes fundraising a continual challenge. In the

“I called my dad, and I started crying. We’ve never raised this much money on our own in the four years that we’ve been on campus, so this is just an incredible thing that they’ve done.” COURTNEY LAWSON, COMMUNICATIONS SENIOR

much joy it brings to everyone involved in the process, I felt like it was something that I needed to continue

past, the organization has hosted a 5K and sold T-shir ts, both of which s aw m o d e rat e s u c c e s s.

The organization’s largest fundraiser is the Change Challenge, Lawson said. “The Change Challenge is where we just ask Greek organizations to donate spare pennies and dollars into a bucket over the span of a week,” Lawson said. At the end of the week, Mary’s Meals collects the money and brings donuts to the chapter that racked up the most change. Lawson didn’t expect a huge return. “Two years ago when we did it, we raised a little over $300,” she said. T h i s y e a r, S i g m a P h i Epsilon went above and beyond pocket change.

“I got a call from the Sig Ep president because I was supposed to go pick their bucket up after a week, and he was like, ‘I need a couple more days to raise funds,’” Lawson said. It turned out that the fraternity had done some fundraising of its own. “We walked around room to room and had guys donate,” said Stephen Wood, finance senior and Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter president. “We pledged to sponsor a kid for $20 (and) feed them for a year. And then we actually set the bucket out in front of our parents’ club table during the OU, K-State gameday. So we

had a lot of alumni come and give money as well towards that.” The fraternity raised exactly $1,608.03, which will feed 82 children for a year. In retrospect, Mary’s Meals works to feed 293 children each school day on behalf of OU. The cost to provide for the kitchen at the Tabwa Primary School in Malawi is $5,714 annually. Lawson was overwhelmed with the fraternity’s response, she said. “I called my dad, and I started crying. We’ve never raised this much money on our own in the four years that we’ve been on campus, so this is just an incredible thing that they’ve done,” Lawson said. Simultaneously providing meals and an incentive for kids to go to school is rewarding, Wood said. “ I t h i n k p e o p l e h av e m o re m o n e y t ha n t h e y think they actually do, perception-wise. You could feed a kid for a year for $20, when like we spend 10 or 15 bucks on a meal once a day,” Wood said. Sigma Phi Epsilon’s gesture was “completely unexpected” and provides a positive example of fraternity action, Lawson said. “I feel like a lot of times fraternities on campus, it’s all about they’re in trouble for drinking and they’re in trouble for whatever. In the greater picture, these boys have fed 82 kids for an entire year,” Lawson said. Molly Kruse
