Campus elections see uptick in voter turnout
ANTONIO LEWIS
Staff Writer
This semester, the mid-year campus-wide election ballot for the Student Government Association, Honor Council and Student Conduct Review Board received 314 responses. This marks a 54% increase from the 2022 fall semester elections, where 204 students participated in voting.
“To see what we have now, nearly all of the ~103 elected student leadership positions filled compared to 2021 where some of the organizations were not even active, is truly something to be proud of as a student body,” said Universal Elections Committee Chair Shadwick Yoder, a senior political science and environmental sustainability double major.

Despite the increase in voter turnout, Yoder said the Committee is upping efforts to engage students in campus elections.
“While participation has many improvements to be made, many that the UEC is actively working on to increase voter turnout, the student body has made leaps in progress from just a short four years ago, and it will only continue to grow,” he said.
Election advertising and UEC outreach have recently extended to various campus constituencies that may have previously been underrepresented. Junior psychology major Stella Wallin transferred to UMW this semester and said that election opportunities were highlighted at the transfer orientation.
“At the transfer orientation, at least, they definitely pushed involvement,” Wallin said. ”The president of the Honor Council definitely pushed involvement in the Honor Council because they have open seats that need to be filled.”
“I heard about Honor Council first during honor convocation, then I saw them tabling at Club Carnival my freshman year,” she said.
Some student officials, like Powers, still believe there is more to be done with regard to student engagement.
“I do not think campus-wide elections are advertised enough, both for running in them and voting in them,” she said. “I would like it if we could get more buzz on campus about elections for all student elections.”
While the mid-year elections typically receive the lowest participation rates and the end-of-year elections receive the highest, voter turnout has never reached 1,000, according to Yoder.
“Engagement in the campus-wide elections varies greatly and depends on which election is occurring,” Yoder said. “The spring election at the end of March/early April garners the most participation from the students running for candidacies as well as the number of students who vote in these elections. That is because these races are where all the current students run for next year’s leadership.”
Participation in campus elections fell during the COVID-19 pandemic and has been steadily rising since students returned to in-person learning.
We recovered and although it took us a few years, we bounced back, expanding seats in many organizations to welcome new students into the room,” Yoder said. “The students have not disappointed either, with SGA going from 16 Senate seats to 24 Senate seats, new students quickly saw the opportunity and joined, leading to us now having 20 Senators to help serve the student body.”

Similar to other clubs on campus, these organizations with elected positions participate in Club Carnival and host interest meetings. Sophomore biomedical sciences major and Honor Council Member Abby Powers got involved after seeing Honor Council advertising at campus events.
He continued, “Across the board, each organization has seen this increase in engagement, from student circles that previously did not engage often in leadership now being top of organizations, to collaborations with each other that simply weren’t possible when these organizations had little or no members.”

Millionaires call on the working class to join them in donating at the 2025 Grammy Awards
Staff Writer
Beyond the sea of musicians in glamorous dresses coveting equally glamorous awards, the 2025 Grammys, hosted on Feb. 2, also called for aid from members of the Los Angeles community in the midst of devastating fires. In between performances and awards, host Trevor Noah addressed audiences in the room and at home directly, asking for donations for small businesses and individuals who lost their homes in the tragedy of the January wildfires.
The Grammys website referred to the event as “A Telecast With a Cause.” While some criticized the Grammys for becoming a telethon, its effectiveness is undeniable. Using awards shows as a platform to pressure wealthy celebrities into donating and showing their support for a climate issue with global implications could raise awareness for other issues and may influence those in power who have the ability to make a long lasting change to contribute, as well.
“Completely
discarding the telethon method is not the answer, however. Rather the focus of requests for donations should be shifted onto the celebrities.”
- Meaghan Van Dyke
Among the organizations that the 2025 Grammys promoted is the MusiCares Foundation for wildfire relief. Celebrities and corporations were given the chance to donate to provide aid to the millions displaced by the wildfires. QR codes were displayed on television screens that brought viewers at home to resources to donate themselves throughout the show. According to the LA Times, damages from the wildfire are expected to exceed $250 billion. In a single night, the Grammy’s reportedly raised $7 million dollars towards wildfire relief.
In a room full of celebrities with individual net worths exceeding millions of dollars each, many people have crit-
icized the Grammys for focusing their donation requests primarily to viewers at home. With 13.5% of the country struggling with food insecurity and over 10,000 homes lost in the fires, a host whose net-worth is approximately $100 million asking for donations in a room full of millionaires felt almost dystopian.
“[A] host whose net-worth is approximately $100 million asking for donations in a room full of millionaires felt almost dystopian.”
- Meaghan Van Dyke
Completely discarding the telethon method is not the answer, however. Rather the focus of requests for donations should be shifted onto the celebrities.
This year’s Grammys is not the first time an awards show was used as a platform for social or political change. In 2024, celebrities such as Billie Eilish and Ramy Youssef wore red pins on the Oscars red carpet in support of the Artists4Ceasefire organization, which calls on world leaders for an immediate ceasefire in Palestine. In 1973, after winning an Oscar for his role in The Godfather, Marlon Brando sent President of the National Native American Affirmative Image Committee Sacheen Littlefeather to refuse the Oscar in his place to bring awareness to protests at Wounded Knee and the mistreatment of Native Americans in the entertainment industry.
These moments, though seemingly only small acts littered throughout the history of major awards shows, became prominent topics of conversation and debate in the following days due to their occurrences at events as widely broadcasted and viewed as awards shows. Celebrities’ reactions are noted. In the 90 minute Grammys timeslot, a unique opportunity is presented to make artists with the power to help aid in floundering causes they may otherwise not garner as much attention without the mainstream device of the Grammys.
As Noah continued to ask the audience for contributions to MusiCares, he did something particularly in-
teresting. He read off the list of each individual donor’s name as they donated. This meant that celebrities were held publicly accountable for their contributions or lack thereof.
Music is not the only thing artists owe people. Their art, of course, can be transformative in shaping culture. Movements have been created and reputations have been ruined. One of the most popular signs at concerts read something along the lines of “your music saved my life.” This contribution cannot be understated. Giving artists such an influential role in shaping society allows more people to feel understood. In our current society, however, the ability for musicians to make a difference does not have to end there. In fact, with how massively iconic celebrities have become in our culture, celebrity influence is nearly limitless, if not entirely. That influence should be used to enact actual long-lasting change in our society.
Using award shows as an opportunity to bring causes, local and international, to light while focusing more of the requests for donations onto the celebrities themselves could put a healthy amount of pressure on celebrities to use their platform for good.
Many Mary Washington students shared the same discomfort around the “telethon” structure of the Grammys.
“I think that it’s a good idea,” sophomore English and creative writing major Hannah Holstrom said. “But targeting the people that were there would be better instead of the viewers because the celebrities have more money, especially with the companies.”
Sophomore history major Caty Taylor echoed Holstrom’s sentiments around the strangeness of the situation.
“It doesn’t necessarily negate my contribution to the cause, but it just made me feel weird,” she said in regards to requests for viewers at home to contribute.
While the contribution of viewers should not be ignored or negated because of a donation from a celebrity, the use of telethons to pressure companies and celebrities in the room is a more effective way to aid in crises and other causes.
The 2025 Grammys, for better or worse, was an unforgettable one. In the wake of devastating circumstances in the Los Angeles area, the contributions from celebrities were life-changing, and achieved in a single night. If this method is kept up for all future award shows, innumerable lives could be changed forever.

Mary Washington Eagles find love on campus
There is a common misconception that Valentine’s Day is only for couples, and for a while that was the sole meaning of the holiday. This idea is backed by corporations flooding our minds and inundating our social media feeds with gifts, flowers and cards that we need to buy for our spouse or lover.
However, love isn’t reserved for romantic relationships, love has always been open for interpretation. It’s a feeling, an emotion, it isn’t locked for anyone.
For many UMW students, it isn’t all about romance. For sophomore political science major Vivian Wilkins, her love extends to her best friend who she met during their freshman seminar.
“Love is an emotion that makes us more empathetic and humble towards another person and allows us to show appreciation and affection.”
- Vivian Wilkins
“Love is an emotion that makes us more empathetic and humble towards another person and allows us to show appreciation and affection,” she said.
One thing UMW does especially well is pushing students to meet and connect with one another. Even someone who hasn’t been on campus for long can meet someone they love in the first semester of being at Mary Washington.
“Love means deep care and compassion. It means the willingness to persist despite struggles.”
- Emma Barnett
“UMW is how I found all of my closest friends,” said Caz Hatton, a junior sociology major. “I am a transfer and most of my friends are as well. We all connected during orientation. I have also met people through the many clubs at Mary Washington, as well as classes.”
“Love means to be emphatic and kind to others around you, and to show compassion and care to strangers as well. The way I show love is to remind myself to be kind to everyone and help others as much as I can. ”
- Enya Cea-Lavin
UMW’s study abroad program allowed senior philosophy major Emma Barnett to fall in love with different cities as well as the people she met on her journey. Barnett said she found her closests friends at UMW and that she foresees those relationships to last for years to come.
“Love means deep care and compassion. It means the willingness to persist despite struggles,” she said.
For many UMW students, love—whether romantic or platonic—is crucial to their college experience.
“Love means to be emphatic and kind to others around you, and to show compassion and care to strangers as well,” said junior English major Enya Cea-Lavin. “The way I show love is to remind myself to be kind to everyone and help others as much as I can.”
“With my friends, love is felt in how happy and light I feel in their presence, and how excited I feel if we have plans coming up and how warm and content I feel inside after spending time with them.”
- Caz Hatton
The love students feel on campus helps to ease the everyday stress of school and make life better.
“With my friends, love is felt in how happy and light I feel in their presence, and how excited I feel if we have plans coming up and how warm and content I feel inside after spending time with them,” said Hatton.
Whether you are a freshman, transfer or even an Eagle who has been here for a while, never feel like you can’t reach out and meet new students that have similar pastimes as yourself.
“Love can take different forms. I have love for people in the world that I’ve never met but that I feel very connected to or empathize with deeply.”
- Caz Hatton
“Love can take different forms,” said Hatton. “I have love for people in the world that I’ve never met but that I feel very connected to or empathize with deeply.”
Love is everywhere, even if you don’t feel or see it. Get out there and try to connect with people. Everyone here at UMW is here for the same goal, to prosper and succeed. Get connected, get involved.
Whether you are celebrating alone or with the ones you love, we love you here at The Weekly Ringer and we hope you all have a beautiful Valentines Day, stay safe and watch out for cupid, I hear he doesn’t miss these days.

UMW Theatre presents “John Proctor is the Villian”
“John Proctor is the Villain” explores themes of friendship, power dynamics and patriarchy through a contemporary feminist lens.
I thought that the set design perfectly captured the essence of a small high school classroom, complete with tiny desks, uncomfortable chairs and walls lined with posters featuring cringe-worthy phrases.
The combination of set design and dialogue transported the audience straight back to 2018. Even the costumes added to the experience, which were designed by Class of 2016 alumna Alicia Austin, who has worked on numerous professional projects, including Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building.”
“The cast was phenomenal at transporting the audience right into the show and I felt like I was right there with all of them,” said Allie Schwartz, a sophomore political science and English double major. “I definitely wasn’t expecting to be as touched by this show as I was.”
For me, a big standout of the night were the performances by Emma Magner, a senior theatre major, as Raelynn Nix, and Rob Willcox, a junior anthropology and theatre double major, as Shelby Holcomb. They flawlessly encapsulate female friendships and the beauty of girlhood. Especially in the final scene of the play, where Raelynn and Shelby do an interpretive dance to Lorde’s “Green Light” for their class project, creating a memorable and heartfelt conclusion to the play.
The University of Mary Washington Theatre Department’s rendition of Kimberly Belflower’s “John Proctor is the Villain” offered a provocative and timely exploration of gender, history and truth, sparking conversations and challenging the narrative. I went to see the production on Feb. 8, and it might be one of my favorite plays from the theatre department so far.
Set in 2018 in rural Georgia, “John Proctor is the Villain” explores the experiences of a group of high school students studying Arthur Miller’s play, “The Crucible.” As scandal erupts in their town, the students begin to draw parallels between their lives and the plot of “The Crucible,” questioning if John Proctor is the hero he is made out to be.
“I really loved how it tackled serious issues in such a realistic way,” said sophomore political science and women and gender studies double major Sarah Tyree-Herrman. “The play showed how teenagers reacted to these serious issues and topics, especially in a time when the #MeToo movement was very prominent.”
“The show surprised me with its impressive use of song and symbolism,” said Tanner Murphy, an English and political science double major. “How emotions were portrayed in the last scene through Green Light by Lorde was something beautiful I didn’t expect.”
“John Proctor is the Villain” is directed by Gregg Stull, professor of theatre and chair of the department. Scenic design is by Associate Professor of Theatre Michael Benson and sound design by the Director of Marketing and Audience Services, Jon Reynolds. Lighting design and costume design are by guest designers Max Doolittle and Austin, respectively.
So, Eagles, don’t miss your chance to experience “John Proctor is the Villain” at UMW. The final performance is this weekend on Feb. 16 at 2:00 p.m. in Klein Theatre.

Campus Rec fitness classes see increased participation
ADAM BRITTON Staff Writer
UMW’s student fitness instructors have seen a recent surge in class participation.
“We definitely saw an influx of people at the beginning of the spring semester as a result of New Year’s Resolutions,” said Payton Jones, a junior psychology major and fitness instructor.
The University of Mary Washington Department of Campus Recreation hosts fitness classes throughout the week, including yoga, cycling, barre and power circuit, which Jones teaches. She says that attendance is difficult to predict because of students’ varying schedules, but that she has between five and 10 regulars.
“Many people don’t exercise as a result of the intimidation of going into a gym and having to program their own knowledge,” Jones said. “Group fitness classes take that stress away and open the opportunity for people to exercise in a community-fashioned way that helps you meet new people and stay accountable.”
According to Director of Campus Recreation Michael Middleton, participation rates have been steadily rising following a drastic dip during the COVID-19 pandemic that halted many on-campus activities.
“We have seen an increase in engagement since 2020 when we had the big sort of drop-off due to the limitations and restrictions centered around the coronavirus,” he said.
To further encourage participation, fitness classes during the first week of each semester are free. After the first week, students can purchase a single semester pass for $15 that provides full access to the range of classes offered, or a year-long pass for $25 that covers the entire academic year.
“We are engaging students consistently, and there is very rarely a time in which we currently have nobody showing up for a class,” Middleton said.
Middleton says that his department’s goal is to cater to different preferences and encourage more students to get involved in physical activities. With at least two classes available each day, Campus Recreation aims to provide opportunities for students to find a class that fits their schedule and interests.
“We try to provide a wide variety of opportunities for students to get engaged with,” said Middleton.
Hannah Holstrom, a sophomore English major, has participated in several of the fitness class options offered, and keeps going back because she has found her favorite classes and instructors.
“Maya that teaches the stretch and flow is super nice, and I really like the music she plays during class,” Holstrom said. “She has a set routine that she does during class that’s very good.”
Holstrom said the instructors and fellow attendees created a positive atmosphere that made even beginners feel comfortable.
“I liked how a lot of people were going and talking to each other and everyone was super nice there,” she said.
Classes are available for both students and UMW staff and Campus Recreation encourages all skill levels to participate.
“There truly is a class for everyone and all people are welcome,” said Jones.
To further boost engagement, the Campus Recreation organizes special events throughout the semester. One such event is the “Love Yourself First” group fitness sampler, scheduled for Feb. 13, right before Valentine’s Day.
“It will be completely free, and students can come through and attend different group fitness classes with us,” Middleton explained.
The event features 20-minute classes from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the fitness center, providing a taste of the various fitness offerings.
These events are designed to attract new participants who may not have engaged with the fitness programs before.
“Many
people don’t exercise as a result of the intimidation of going into a gym and having to program their own knowledge. Group fitness classes take that stress away and open the opportunity for people to exercise in a community-fashioned way that helps you meet new people and stay accountable.”
- Payton Jones
“Students who may not have engaged before might come to that event, take one of the classes offered in the sampler, and then decide that they want to continue taking the regular schedule class for the rest of the semester,” Middleton said.

New starter on the UMW esports team: John
Mabry’s competitiveness drives him to win
SIENNA SABIA Staff Writer
The University of Mary Washington’s esports program has a new member of the Call of Duty team this season. John Mabry, a senior studio art major, is participating in his first full season and has immediately found his place on the team.
For Mabry, gaming has always been part of his life, starting from his childhood.
“I was the youngest of four, and my dad played games with us,” he said.
Being the youngest meant a lot of losing when it came to video games, but those losses became something that would help him later in his esports career.
“They would always beat me, and it would always make me extremely mad, and I would always internalize it,” he said.
Instead of giving up, he used it as motivation, spending hours practicing on his own to finally start winning. That determination carried over into his esports journey. His shift from casual gaming to competitive play happened during the pandemic during which Mabry was inspired by friends to take his hobby to the next level.
“When COVID hit, I was just like, ‘well, there’s nothing else to do,’” he said.
Encouraged by friends who saw his talent, he decided to take things more seriously. Before long, he was making a name for himself in online competitions.
His journey with UMW’s esports team began when he took a summer course with esports personnel Drew Begley, a senior leadership and management major, who spotted his potential.
“He made me show him what I could do, and then I sent him some clips,” he said. Impressed, Begley introduced him to Director of esports Mark Link, who offered him a spot on the team.
Joining an established team can be nerve-wracking, but Mabry was not worried about his skills.
“I knew what I could do,” he said. “I just didn’t know if I would mesh well with the other guys.”
Mabry focused on blending in and bringing fresh energy to the team, taking it step-by-step.
Call of Duty, which is Mabry’s main focus, requires both quick reflexes, sharp strategy and clear communication with teammates, so team chemistry is essential.
“Your communication has to be perfect,” he said. “If not, your game plan falls apart, and suddenly, the other team has the upper hand.”
Senior business administration major, and Captain of the Call of Duty team, Jakob Schroeder agrees that communication is key and gives a leg up on the competition.
“Communication is a massive factor during game day and practice,” he said. “While other teams have said we are the loudest on our game days, it’s necessary for both the energy of the team, and giving clear comms.”
To prepare, Mabry follows a routine of warm-ups, strategy talks and listening to music to get in the right mindset before a match.
Managing both esports and academics can be tough, but Mabry has found a way to be both a focused student and a strong player on the team.
“Since we’re student-athletes, student comes first,” he said.
Even while growing up, his parents always made sure that school came before video games.
“My parents told me, ‘Get your homework done first, then you can play games or go outside,’” he said.
That lesson has stuck with him, helping him manage school while still being fully committed to his team.
Last season, the team had a strong start, winning five games in a row before hitting a rough patch. They ended up placing fourth in their bracket but fell short of the championship. This year, Mabry believes they can go further.
“We had a good shot last season, and I think we have another good chance this time,” he said.
Mabry’s impact on the team has not gone unnoticed by his teammates. Schroeder sees his talent and good performance even as a rookie.
“As one of the rookies on the team, he’s a solid player when it comes to game day and performs well,” Schroeder said.
Even as a rookie, Mabry is already someone that his underclassmen teammates can look up to, says junior biomedical sciences major Max Lawton.
“He is awesome,” Lawton said. “Super encouraging, and a very helpful teammate. He shows up early and is ready, which I can aspire to be.”
One of the toughest aspects of competitive esports to Mabry is staying mentally prepared and taking the good days with the bad.
“It’s kind of like a regular football or basketball game—you have good days and bad days,” he said. “You can come in feeling great, but if things don’t go your way, you have to stay locked in and push through.”
Through the good and the bad days, Lawton says that Mabry’s focus on communication with clear and decisive shot calling keeps the team going.
“Every game and every decision comes down to communication and working together,” he said. “Johnny has great communication that is always very clear and decisive. He makes sure everyone keeps up communication as well.”
For Mabry, building mental strength is just as important as actual skill.
“Staying prepared mentally is probably one of the toughest challenges,” he said.
Esports is a fast growing program at UMW, and Mabry sees a bright future for the entire organization.
“Esports brings a lot of competition and energy,” he said. “Not everyone can play traditional sports, but gaming gives them a chance to compete at a high level.”
Mabry hopes more Mary Washington students take advantage of what UMW Esports has to offer.
“I think it’s going to grow a lot in the next few years,” he said. “I’m even trying to bring some of my friends here so they can keep the legacy going after we graduate.”
He always knew he wanted to compete but wasn’t sure how to get started. Now that he’s in the scene, he enjoys every moment, but especially winning.
“I love being part of a team and competing,” Mabry said. “Winning is what drives me. A lot of people don’t know this about me, but I hate losing. I don’t always show it, but at home, I’m constantly thinking about what I could have done better.”
With the season underway, Mabry is more focused on the overall team success, than his individual standings.
“I just hope the program keeps growing and puts us on the map,” he said.
