TAMU administration, students respond to ‘Sharps Army’
Pugh, Sharp comment on sexual messages about family of SBP By Brad Canon @bradcanon1 The comments allegedly made by some past and former students of Texas A&M’s student senate in a GroupMe message board, from which screenshots surfaced last week, received a response from administrators, student leaders and hundreds of past and current students via social media. Vice President of Student Affairs Daniel Pugh said his office is standing behind Wimberly and her family. He said he is personally up-

more beyond that because we will take a look at that from a conduct standpoint.” Despite allegations which have been made, A&M System Chancellor John Sharp said he was unaware of this alleged group of student senators naming the GroupMe after him — named “Sharps Army” — and that he is not associated with the group at all, according to Laylan Copelin, vice chancellor of marketing and communications. “Chancellor John Sharp was unaware of ‘Sharps Army’ and has no connection to it,” Copelin said. Amy Smith, senior vice president and chief marketing and communications officer said the disciplinary process for the two senators will
consist of an investigation conducted by the Student Government Association that administration will not be involved with. The university will conduct its own investigation under Title IX jurisdiction to decide what, if any action will be taken against the student senators. “Investigation into action is taken in two areas, one is through the SGA code of conduct and regulations and will proceed through SGA,” Smith said. “Additionally, the university will review this situation under our code of conduct rules which include Title IX legislation.” The investigation into whether or not disciplinary action from the university will be conducted by the SENATE ON PG. 2

Cain Garage opens Monday and will be able to house 1,400 vehicles.
By Brooklyn Figueiredo @brooklyn_fig With more than 1,400 parking spaces and five levels, Cain Garage opens Monday. Cain Garage, which was built on the lot where Cain Hall once stood, will offer new navigational technology, which intends to allow for easier and more efficient parking. Cain Garage is accessible for all students and visitors and hopes to help ease campus congestion on game days and other high-profile campus events. Peter Lange, associate vice president for Transportation Services said the new garage is different than the other existing garages on campus both inside and out, and serves as a new model for future buildings and garages to come. “The exterior of the facility is designed to complement the surrounding campus infrastructure, including the picturesque Memorial Student Center,” Lange said. “A CAIN GARAGE ON PG. 2
Defensive end Myles Garret sacks Tennessee quarterback Josh Dobbs and forces one of the Volunteers’ seven turnovers. Lawrence Smelser — THE BATTALION

ith the national spotlight focused on College Station, Kyle Field was host to two teams ranked within the top 10 teams in the country. Both the Aggies and the Tennessee Volunteers met on the gridiron to decide who would face Alabama with one loss on their record. Tennessee marched into Aggieland with several comeback victories under its belt. Saturday’s game almost had the same ending,
but the A&M defense had the last say. After senior quarterback Trevor Knight ran for a touchdown to give the Aggies a 45-38 lead, it was up to the defense to stop the magic that seems to follow the Volunteers, seen most clearly in their Hail Mary victory over Georgia the week before heading to Aggieland. On the first play following the Knight touchdown, senior quarterback Josh Dobbs looked to once again lead the Vols to another comeback victory. But as Dobbs went through his progressions and looked for an open receiver, junior Armani Watts was
steadily watching and anticipating his throw, which he would go on to intercept, effectively end the game and give the Vols heir first loss of the season. “We had seen that play earlier in the game,” Watts said. “[The receiver] was wide open but he dropped the ball. So they came back to it thinking it was open again; I had a great play and executed.” Although Watts’ play was one of the most important plays of the game, there were several defensive stops that contributed to A&M being able to walk out of Week 6 undefeated. The Aggies caused a
total of seven turnovers, including five fumble recoveries and two interceptions. Last week, the Aggie defense was without its star, junior defensive end Myles Garrett, because of an injury he suffered in Arlington when the Aggies faced the Arkansas Razorbacks. Garrett said no matter how physically hurt he was, there was no doubt he would sit out this game and in his eyes let his teammates go to battle without him. “Those are my brothers,” Garrett said. “I’m going to give it all I got till I can no longer go.” Texas A&M head coach Kevin FOOTBALL ON PG. 5
Number of women in STEM increases A&M ranked first in Texas for women in STEM fields By Sanna Bhai @bhaisanna
Alexis Will — THE BATTALION
Although A&M is ranked first in Texas and 12th nationally for women in STEM, STEM program administrators say there is still progress to be made.
Since 1980, the percentage of women in the engineering field has increased by 8.2 percent, according to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, resulting in an increase of female students enrolling in A&M’s STEM program. Texas A&M University ranked first in the state of Texas and 12th nationally for women in STEM — science, technology, engineering and mathematics. A&M’s STEM program is a collaboration between
the College of Human Development and the Dwight Look College of Engineering. It provides research-based education in hopes of preparing students for future professional careers. Katherine Banks, vice chancellor of engineering and dean at the A&M College of Engineering, said she’s pleased with the ranking and the outlook for the future of women in this field. “I am extremely proud to be a part of it,” Banks said. “I believe that this institution — in terms of my experience — is an unbelievably welcome, open, inviting and supportive environment for women in STEM. Hopefully we will continue to increase our numbers
of women in science and technology.” Adele Mouna, engineering freshman, conveyed her gratitude toward the school for giving her an equal opportunity and supporting her dreams. “Knowing that I attend a universally known university which makes it their mission to recruit young women and give them an equal opportunity within a male-driven industry gives me a beneficial motivational factor to pursue my career goals, as I know that TAMU acts as my support system,” Mouna said. Daniel Collins, chemistry professor, said although this is a good STEM ON PG. 4

The surfacing of derogatory comments in a GroupMe by current and former student senators prompted hundreds of responses on social media.
SENATE CONTINUED Dean of Student Life office will be no different than how campus issues regarding Title IX are typically handled, Pugh said. “We will continue to deal with [Title IX] and that is part of our job as educators here,” Pugh said. “Again it doesn’t
surprise me there is always a bit of a gut punch to it and then maybe a little bit of surprise, but then the reality sets in that it’s indicative of a larger issue that we still face inside of our society, and that’s why Title IX exists.” Pugh said he personally supported Wimberly’s remarks. “I am really proud of how Hannah handled herself [Wednesday] night and
having to deal with something, where she really did manage herself well,” Pugh said. The remarks made by student senators on the GroupMe received hundreds of responses on Facebook, overwhelmingly supportive of Wimberly and her family and several calling for the impeachment of the senators involved.

visitors to swipe a credit card to enter and again at exit to make payment. This saves printing and keeping up with a ticket,” Lange said. “Traditional payment options such as pay stations and cashiers are still available.” The construction of Cain Garage aims to alleviate some of the overflow from other garages like West Campus, and also help offset the growing demand for parking due to over enrollment and student population, Lange said. “[A permit costs] $471 per year, which is prorated weekly,” Lange said. “The prorated price when it opens next week will be $423.” Brianna Benton, political science
freshman, said having a new parking garage will hopefully help out with the current difficulty of parking on campus. “I live on campus so I’m hoping that having a new garage will alleviate some of the parking pressure of West Campus garage where I park,” Benton said. Olivia Wilkerson, political science sophomore who currently parks in Lot 100, said the opening of the new garage and the convenience it will bring will be the reason she parks there instead next year. “I live off campus, but I’m always at the MSC studying, now Cain is going to make it super convenient for me to park so close,” Wilkerson said.

The Art After School program aims to promote creative expression among elementary school students in Bryan-College Station.
Art After School program offers creative outlet for elementary school students By Ana Sevilla @AnaVSevilla

lue, black and white cover the pages of seven different paintings, all creating variations of a starry night. And while the paintings may not go down in history like those of Picasso or Monet, the local elementary-aged students enrolled in the Art After School program are given a creative outlet to explore different art styles and mediums. Art After School, which is hosted Mondays and Wednesdays by the Arts Council of Brazos Valley (ACBV) at the Studio of the Arts Center, is a 12-week program focusing on art for children ages 6 to 11 with a syllabus customized by Eric Theodore, former Navasota artist in residence. “A lot of the activities that we’re doing in-
volve some different types of painting, and we cover a lot of different styles as well, like from just doing abstracts to sort of Zentangle stuff with water colors,” Theodore said. “So there’s a lot of skills that are taught, but a lot of it is just them having the freedom to decide and be creative on their own.” According to ACBV program director Amy Salvaggio, Theodore works not only with Art After School, but also works with KOR Education School’s Fine Arts Fridays, a program that educates children about other fine arts like theatre and music, and with Reflections, a program that works to promote artistic expression among special needs students. Salvaggio said Art After School offers students a way to explore their creative interests before they have to choose extracurriculars in middle school. “We’re trying to target those kids when
Madeline Sambrano — THE BATTALION
they’re first getting to explore that,” Salvaggio said. “So getting those kids when they’re still in elementary school and getting them to explore more creatively what type of art they like and what they might be interested in pursuing.” Salvaggio said while a large focus is placed on STEM education in schools, art is important in teaching children to think more creatively. “Americans for the Arts have done multiple studies, and you can go and look and see all the different ways that art benefits your life,” Salvaggio said. “It makes people more creative thinkers, more abstract and theoretical thinkers. It allows kids to express themselves in ways they haven’t thought of before which opens them up creatively.” Nine-year-old Tatum Hapes said painting is her favorite part about Art After School.
“My favorite part about painting is probably messing with gooey stuff, you know, the way that it looks and the way that it feels when I’m doing this — it feels like I could go on forever and never get tired,” Hapes said. Theodore said the arts can be beneficial for all students because the skills they gather can translate into other areas of interest. “[Students are] just not contained to this little box that ‘They can only think this way during art time.’ It’s like that whole mindset carries over to those other areas. Like in STEM, which is great for innovation and creativity and being able to invent in whatever medium, they can carry that across different subjects,” Theodore said.

chemistry professor, said although the ranking is a good improvement, there is much more to accomplish. “It is improvement, but you can always go further,” Collins said. “It is one of those things that being here at Texas A&M and especially when you look at the sciences and how women’s roles have gotten steam over the last five years, I look at it going, where has it been for the last 25 years.” As a member of the engineering faculty, Collins said he focuses on the elimination of gender roles in earlier ages, because he believes it is essential to the growth of women in male dominant fields. “As a faculty member, all we want are the best students — male or female — but for the longest time those were the male dominated classes,” Collins said. “Now let’s get everybody that wants to learn and let’s go from there. It really starts at the junior high level. It is about getting rid of those gender
roles early.” Although there has been an increase in women in engineering, the United States is still behind the global movement by about 20 percent. Banks said the increasing number of women in engineering at A&M is having a worldwide impact. “In some ways, other countries don’t have the same challenge,” Banks said. “In the world there are countries that have about 40 percent of women in engineering. This is a cultural challenge in the United States and a few other countries, not necessarily worldwide. So for us to have more women in STEM means we are changing the culture; we are supportive of women in non-traditional fields.” Armeen Pirali, biomedical sciences freshman, said she was surprised by the ranking. “It feels really good to be a part of such a prestigious school and program,” Pirali said. “This is also shocking to me because this school was once an all-male college and now it has reached such great heights for women.”

5 takeaways from Saturday’s victory over Tennessee
1
Armani Watts is one of the best safeties in the country The junior safety sealed the Aggies’ victory with a diving interception in the second overtime, and he made several other big plays that helped A&M remain unblemished. One of those came in the first half, when he forced a fumble from Tennessee running back Alvin Kamara near the goal line and then recovered the loose ball. It was an eerily similar play to one Watts made in the Arkansas game and he continues to impact the game in a variety of ways. He is the only player in the SEC with a sack, interception, forced fumble, recovered fumble, pass breakup, tackle for loss
and quarterback hurry. “He proved that despite his size and what people say about him, he’s a playmaker through and through,” said A&M defensive end Myles Garrett. “He can do it in all facets of the game. He can come up and make a play, make a tackle, he can cover, he can bat balls away. He does everything and he does it well. I’m glad to have him.” LSU’s Jamal Adams and Washington’s Budda Bakers are both fantastic and highly regarded, but Watts has made a strong case this season to be in the conversation of best safety.
2
Trayveon Williams continues to impress
3
Myles Garrett is a monster
Williams is only a freshman, but that hasn’t stopped him from immediately making an impact on an Aggie squad that leads the SEC in rushing. The 5-9, 200-pound back leads the SEC in rushing yards and leads the nation in yards per carry among players with at least 60 carries. His explosiveness and shiftiness were on full display against the Volunteers Saturday as he ran for a career-high 217 yards. It was the most rush yards for a true freshman in A&M history, and he became the first Aggie to surpass the 200-yard mark
since Johnny Manziel’s performance in the 2013 Cotton Bowl. Williams’ success on the ground has been critical to the Aggies offensive production in 2016. Not only does he pose a threat to break off a big run at any time, but he also forces opposing defenses to focus in on him, creating room for quarterback Trevor Knight to thrive in the running game. Both Williams and Knight each rushed for more than 100 yards against Tennessee, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the backfield duo accomplishes that feat again before season’s end.
Garrett’s success and ability have been well-document. He is among the best players in all of college football and he has a legitimate chance to be picked No. 1 overall in next year’s NFL Draft. But even in a game against the Volunteers in which he didn’t overload the stat sheet, he still found a way to make an impact. He did not play last week against South Carolina and he said he was operating at about 65-70 percent on Saturday, but he still refused to come out of the game — especially in the fourth quarter and overtime — and continued to battle even though his ankle was in pain.
Some players of Garrett’s caliber and stature would not want to risk their NFL future on the outcome of a college game, but that’s not how Garrett is wired. “He was just going to play on third downs tonight, but if you looked up in overtime, I don’t think he came off. I said, ‘Are you alright?’ And he said, ‘Coach I’m playing.’ I think he played the whole overtime, first and second periods,” A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin said. “Here’s a guy with a bright future and with a lot at stake. That tells you where he is as a person. Not just a great football player, but a great person.”

The Aggies’ tight-knit culture paying dividends
5
Bring on ‘Bama
This version of Texas A&M football is different than in year’s past, most notably in its ability to win close games. In tight situations where the Aggies used to fold under the pressure and acquiesce to adversity, this year’s team finds a way to get the job done. Some of that has undoubtedly been from the addition of a veteran quarterback like Knight, but it is also a product of an
Next up for 6-0 A&M is No. 1 Alabama, which is also currently undefeated. The nice thing about the matchup for the Aggies is that they have a bye week coming up to better prepare themselves for the Crimson Tide. So while Nick Saban’s team is dealing with Tennessee’s opportunistic style of play, the Aggies will be studying film and letting their bodies recover from what
increased emphasis on the Aggies’ brotherhood-style culture. “I just believe in this team,” said Knight, who rushed for three touchdowns against Tennessee. “I believe in our guys and I know that internally we believe in each other so when our backs are against the wall and we’re forced to make plays, we believe in the guy next to us and it just happens.”
has been a tough stretch of games. If the Tide can beat the Vols it would set the Aggies up to play in another top-10 game with huge SEC implications. The game is in Tuscaloosa so it will be a tough atmosphere for A&M, but Sumlin’s squad should be well-rested and ready to play.
By Heath Clary @Heath_Clary
Lawrence Smelser — THE BATTALION
Quarterback Trevor Knight totaled five touchdowns against Tennessee.
FOOTBALL CONTINUED Sumlin said Garrett’s performance even without being at 100 percent is a testament to the player and teammate he is. “I looked at the line up and it started off with Myles playing just on third down,” Sumlin said. “If you paid attention in the overtime, I don’t think he came out. I said ‘Are you alright?’ he just went out there and was like ‘Coach I’m playing.’ That tells you a lot about him. Here’s a guy that has a bright future and a lot at stake, but is a great teammate and is a great example of what this team is about.” By the end of the game Tennessee had 684 total yards. Although statistically speaking this wasn’t the Aggies’ best game, they were still able to come out with a victory and head into the bye week with a perfect record. Sumlin said he was happy with the way the team performed. and the team will now look to take care of their bodies as they rest up and heal for their week 8 matchup with No. 1 Alabama on the road. “The big takeaway from this is that we were able withstand somethings,” Sumlin said. “Not play great, but make enough plays to win the game without some of our better players not being 100 percent. Quite frankly, the bye week comes at a great time.”
