For LA Homebrew Manager Donovan McClelland, the brewing process begins in your head. After the brewer has an idea of taste and color in mind, the preparations work backward from there. The person brewing the beer breaks down the flavors based off of ingredients that will produce the desired characteristics and gathers them. “The best beer you can make is the one you think of,” McClelland said. Now, anyone can learn how to make beer from their homes with a class taught by LA Homebrew. McClelland will be leading the class this Saturday, which will teach attendees how to brew an American Pale Ale style beer by using a method of brewing that involves getting sugars from an extract. “It’s something that will be pleasing to just about everybody,” McClelland said. “The method

University to receive $10M from Athletic Department
STAFF REPORTS news@lsureveille.com LSU's Athletic Department will transfer $10 million to the University this year, the department announced in a news release Monday. “Our athletic department is sincerely committed to supporting the academic mission of the university, and we’re extremely proud to transfer over $10 million this year,” said Director of Athletics Joe Alleva in the release. “These funds provide vital resources for our students, faculty and staff, and they help to sustain LSU as one of the top research institutions in the country.” Since 2012, the Athletic Department has contributed $7.2 million per year to the University, a number set in the Athletics Fund Transfer Policy by the LSU Board of Supervisors. According to the policy, each year the department receives a surplus, a part of that surplus must be added to the annual $7.2 million, according to the release.

AgCenter part of initial bid to produce marijuana for medical purposes BY DAVID LAPLANTE dlaplante@lsureveille.com The LSU and Southern University Agricultural Centers are first in line to potentially research and grow marijuana plants for medical use in Louisiana according to Act 261, signed into law June 29. Gov. Bobby Jindal approved the designated schools with the first right to refusal to grow state-sanctioned marijuana. Recreational use of cannabis remains illegal in Louisiana, and if the schools accept the invitation to grow the plant they will likely be strictly regulated. The University did not active-
ly seek involvement in the bill, said LSU AgCenter Director of Communications and Public Relations Frankie Gould. “It was written into legislation the day we found out about it,” she said. The AgCenter cannot speculate about its potential involvement in the production of marijuana because it is waiting on state agencies to return regulations for the agreement. Because LSU and Southern are both listed in the bill, they could decide to work together or respond independently if they accept the regulations and direction of state agencies. If the Universities choose to refuse a
contract with the state, negotiations will open to private bidders. It is unclear whether the production could be used as a profit center for the Universities or if the finances would be statecontrolled. Potential production is still far in the future as state agencies research the implications and requirements of the project. Under the new law, the Board of Pharmacy will work with law enforcement and the Louisiana District Attorneys to define the reach and direction of the potential production. Gould said LSU will not be able to make any deci-

Rudd’s humor in ‘Ant-Man’ refreshing for Marvel TAYLOR MADE
B-16 Hodges Hall Louisiana State University Baton Rouge, La. 70803
Newsroom (225) 578-4810
TAYLOR WILEY Writer, Copy Editor The latest addition to the Marvel movie franchise, “AntMan,” meets anticipation and brings an interesting approach to the superhero. It tackles themes of family and revenge with solid action and continuous ties to its realm as the suit with shrinking capabilities and increased strength empowers a former criminal to save the world. The film begins with a flashback to 1989 when Dr. Hank Pym, played by Michael Douglas, resigns from S.H.I.E.L.D. after a heated argument with Howard Stark, played by John Slattery, and Mitchell Carson, played by Martin Donovan, over particles Dr. Pym created. The focus jumps to Scott Lang, (Paul Rudd) in the present day. Lang spends his last day in prison after being incarcerated for three years. Although former cellmate and new roommate Luis (Michael Peña), presents a perfect opportunity from the get-go, Lang tries to put his thieving ways behind him but fails to keep a with the suit. steady job.

THE QUIET LEADER
SEC athletes should be mindful of actions CAPTAIN MORGAN MORGAN PREWITT Writer
to play, never bothered him. “It wasn’t as frustrating as some people may think,” Beckwith said at SEC Media Days, “because I feel like it was all about timing. I feel like it was the right time for me to step in and play that role. I know it was the seventh game of the season. But I know, personally, I wasn’t as crisp as I should have been early on in the season.” The Clinton, Louisiana, native’s impact in that 30-27 road win against the Gators was the springboard for a defense that finished the season first in the SEC and top-10 nationally in total defense. But his biggest game came, possibly, in the defense’s best overall showing two weeks later.
Discipline is a word thrown around a lot in college football circles. From coaches commenting on the founding ideals of their programs to fans attempting to bring into question the integrity of an opponent’s best player, discipline is always deemed the key to success while the lack of it constitutes failure. For many, the Southeastern Conference is the most competitive conference in the game, holding seven-straight titles from 2006 to 2012 and having a representative in eight of the last nine national championship games. Off the field, the SEC is king in another category commissioner Greg Sankey is presumably not bragging about — arrests. Since 2011, SEC football players have accounted for a total of 210 arrests with 14 LSU players tallying 16 arrests during that span, according to arrestnation. com. Every summer, LSU fans wake up to the same recurring nightmare of a star player being

Linebacker Beckwith leads with ‘professional’ approach under new defensive coordinator Steele
BY JAMES BEWERS jbewers@lsureveille.com For LSU junior middle linebacker Kendell Beckwith, timing is everything. As a collegiate football player, the timing wasn’t right when he stepped foot in Baton Rouge. It wasn’t right when he played his first game in Tiger Stadium. It wasn’t right when he made his first tackle or first sack. It wasn’t right when he began his sophomore season. But by game seven of the 2014 season against Florida – his first career start – the time was finally right. For a team that plays a plethora of young players, the long wait to command the middle of LSU’s defense, a position he always wanted
Young golfers excite at the 2015 Open Championship INTO THE WOODS JACK WOODS Writer Zach Johnson fought off his competitors Marc Leishman and Louis Oosthuizen in a thrilling three-way playoff Monday afternoon to win the 2015 Open Championship at the Old Course at St. Andrews in Scotland. Although Johnson lifted the Claret Jug, the trophy awarded for winning the British Open, young players dominated the headlines for large portions of the week at one of the oldest courses in the world. Heading into the tournament, all eyes were on 21-yearold Jordan Spieth and his pur-
suit of the ever-elusive Grand Slam. People wondered if the pressure would get to him, or if he would be able to continue his miraculous march to become the only man to win all four majors in a calendar year in golf’s modern era. LSU fans had the chance to see Ben Taylor make his major championship debut Thursday morning. The 23-year-old struggled on the first day, posting a 10over 82. However, he rebounded during the second round, shooting a one-over 73 and showing plenty of promise to believe in for future tournaments. Heading into Monday’s final round, it was Irish amateur Paul Dunne in the spotlight. The 22-year-old shot a third-round six-under 66 for a share of the lead after 54 holes.
He had the honor of being in Monday’s final group, and he was going to be the final name legendary announcer Ivor Robson called out until Robson was forced out of retirement to announce the playoff. But Dunne couldn’t maintain the level of play he displayed in the third round, shooting a sixover 78 on Monday to take him out of contention. Spieth shot a three-under 69, but a costly bogey on the 17th hole left him with only one hold to make up a stroke to make the playoff. His birdie putt on the 18th didn’t find the mark, and the Grand Slam dream died. The leaderboard featured several young players who posted solid scores. Jordan Niebrugge, a 21-year-old

Caitlyn Jenner accepts the Arthur Ashe award for courage at the ESPY Awards at the Microsoft Theater on July 15.
Despite adversity, Caitlyn Jenner serves as a role model THREAUXDOWN ZOE GEAUTHREAUX Writer, Photographer Caitlyn Jenner continues to make headlines since she emerged as a transgender woman — this time as a recipient of the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the 2015 ESPY Awards last Wednesday. Arthur Ashe was an African-American tennis champion who found success in a predominately white sport. Although his namesake award is focused on sports, this honor is not limited to sports-related achievements. “The award is inspired by the life that Ashe lived, using his fame and stature to advocate for human rights, although, at the time, those positions may have been unpopular and were often controversial,” according to the ESPY’s website.

Rebecca Docter Editor in Chief Jennifer Vance Managing Editor
Jenner received the award, not only for her accomplishments as an Olympian, but for her public role in the transgender community. And with a stunning white gown to capture our eyes and moving words to capture our hearts, Jenner reminded us of why she was given an award honoring courage to begin with. “If you want to call me names, make jokes, doubt my intentions, go ahead, because the reality is, I can take it,” Jenner said to the audience and viewers. “But for the thousands of kids out there coming to terms with being true to who they are, they shouldn’t have to take it.” I felt my eyes begin to water and my throat choke up as I listened to the rest of her inspirational speech. Scrolling down my Facebook newsfeed rendered the same reaction, but not in a good way. Some people were angry because they felt army veteran Noah Galloway, an amputee athlete, deserved it more. Some used the award as a platform to proclaim their
homophobic opinions. But this isn’t what I found to be most disappointing. It was the belittling of her accomplishments in one snarky statement — “All she did was put on a dress.” The sad reality is transgender youth are reportedly harming themselves because they live in a society that does not accept them. Ash Haffner, 16, Mercedes Williamson, 17, and Sam Taub, 15, are among the transgender teens that have died or taken their own lives because they were not accepted. According to a study conducted by The Williams Institute, in collaboration with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, 46 percent of trans men reported that they had attempted suicide in their lifetime. Under this context, 42 percent of trans women and 44 percent of femaleassigned crossdressers reported the same thing. Critics of Jenner are the very force she is trying to combat. She is a transgender

woman who went through a struggle of accepting her own identity out of a real, legitimate fear of how the public would react. She didn’t do it for herself, she did it for the transgender community. “This transition has been harder on me than anything I could imagine. And that’s the case for so many others besides me,” Jenner said. “For that reason alone, trans people deserve something vital. They deserve your respect. And from that respect comes a more compassionate community, a more empathetic society and a better world for all of us.” Susan B. Anthony did not just collect petition signatures. Rosa Parks did not just sit in the front of a bus. Caitlyn Jenner did not just put on a dress. Caitlyn Jenner put on a dress in an ugly world that did not want to see her in a dress — and that’s pretty courageous. Zoe Geauthreaux is a 20-year-old mass communication junior from New Orleans.

WHAT YOU MISSED IN
NOWHERE TO HIDE BATON ROUGE Hacking of Ashley Madison servers reveals infidelity info
LEE JIN-MAN / The Associated Press
Ashley Madison’s Korean website is shown on a computer screen in Seoul, South Korea.
THE CERULEAN CONCILIATOR JUSTIN DICHARIA Writer There is no safe place for infidelity, nor should there be. Cheating on one’s significant other in an assumed monogamous relationship is immoral and offers the risk of that immorality’s exposure even under the proclaimed guise of protection made by the cheating website Ashley Madison. On Sunday, information hackers stole from Ashley Madison surfaced throughout the media, creating a comical and frantic social media response. The hackers have threatened Ashley Madison’s parent company, Avid Life Media, with the ultimatum that either the company shuts down Ashley Madison services or the hackers would post the stolen information online. Infidelity strikes at the very core of a man or woman’s personality. Cheating on a significant other not only tears open their heart, but it also poisons that person’s sense of trust, affecting them in all future relationships.
With trust acting as the base for all relationships to be built on, its degradation is costly for a person’s emotional stability. Whether the hackers are a horde of angry Christians or irate wives (or maybe even husbands), the action of blackmail to end immoral services like Ashley Madison is not the most efficient corrective outlet. The best way to teach the importance of loyalty in a relationship is through educating children on the facets of relationships, and not just romantic relationships but those of friendship as well. Stealing people’s private information is wrong, no matter the reason, even if it is to fight an immoral action. While I deplore infidelity for its back stabbing nature, I cannot condone the methodology of the hackers. I cannot force my beliefs upon others; however for those who believe humans were not meant to be monogamous, you had better be darn sure your partner feels the same way. Unspeakable acts of physical violence plague the world we live in, but it is betrayal that is the most violent attack on a human being’s spirit. As Shakespeare’s Caesar lay
bleeding upon the senate floor, he looked into the eyes of his most trusted friend and cried out with his last words “Et tu Brute?” Don’t break someone’s heart for the sake of a one night stand. Work out your problems and either end or mend the relationship, but don’t attack loyalty. Don’t destroy a person’s ability to trust, to love. With that said, it is important to iterate the old cliché that two wrongs do not make a right. The theft of private information for the sake of a perceived good cause is still wrong and takes the focus away from the immorality of infidelity and shines a light on the illegalities involved with hacking. The hackers should refrain from their threats and focus their efforts on more productive solutions to infidelity, solutions that focus on the core values of loyalty, respect, trust and love. Our society is in great need of a moral response to immorality’s attack on trust. Stealing is not the way to do it. Justin DiCharia is a 21-yearold mass communication senior from Slidell, Louisiana.

Tuesday, July 21, 2015 BECKWITH, from page 3 The SEC Defensive Player of the Week had a team-high 11 total tackles, which was the same amount he had his entire freshman season, in a 10-7 win against then-undefeated Ole Miss. He followed that performance with a crucial, fourthquarter fumble recovery in LSU’s 20-13 overtime loss to Alabama the next week. He then averaged seven tackles in his final three games with a total of 3 ½ tackles for losses. “If you watched his tackles the back half of that season,” said LSU coach Les Miles, “they were the tackles that were violent and drove the ball back the other way.” By the end of his second year with the Tigers, Beckwith finished second on the team in tackles with 77, including 7 ½ tackles for losses, and cemented himself as one of the key returning pieces to defensive coordinator John Chavis’ group. But Chavis, the man who recruited him to stay in state, had other plans.
ATHLETES, from page 3 arrested and the possibility of a successful season being over before it even starts. In 2011, it was starting quarterback Jordan Jefferson. Although backup quarterback Jarett Lee led the Tigers to an undefeated start (9-0), Jefferson took over the starting role for the last five games, including the 21-0 loss to Alabama in the 2012 BCS National Championship game, after serving a four-game suspension. Tyrann “Honey Badger” Mathieu’s dismissal from the team on August 10, 2012, for a violation of team rules dominated the preseason discussion. He never played another down for the Tigers after being arrested in October 2012 on drug-related charges just 10 months after finishing fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting. In 2013, running back Jeremy Hill spent the offseason in limbo after being caught in a cell phone video hitting a man from behind in Tigerland . Hill returned to the team in August and led the Tigers with 1,401 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in 2013 before being drafted in the second round by the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2014 NFL Draft. In 2014, defensive back Jalen Mills was arrested on battery charges after hitting a woman in the mouth, according to NOLA. com | The Times-Picayune. He rejoined the team in August 2014 and totaled 62 tackles in his junior season.

LSU junior middle linebacker, Kendell Beckwith (52), sits before the media during SEC Media Days on July 16 in Hoover, Ala. Chavis exited Baton Rouge for the same position with Texas A&M, leaving Beckwith in an awkward position. After all, he considered Chavis a “father figure,”, but new defensive coordinator Kevin Steele made the transition seamless.
Steele, who is also the linebackers coach, is especially tough on Beckwith, seeing his potential not only as an NFL-caliber player but also a leader on this team. Beckwith often hears his position coach preach to him about being a
take the heat for their players’ off the field issues with sportswriters, fans and broadcasters blaming the coach for not supervising and educating his players on the right way to act. It’s true a strong coach can limit the legal issues surrounding his players. For example: South Carolina. Since 2011, the Gamecocks have recorded only nine arrests, which sits second behind only Vanderbilt for the least arrests in the conference during that span. When a reporter asked about his success at limiting discipline issues at SEC Media Days last week, South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier replied with his usual candor. “I’ve always had a rule as a coach that, if you ever hit a girl, you’re finished,” Spurrier said. “We’ve lost two at South Carolina. Fortunately, they were not star players. If they were star players, it would have gone all
over the country. So we quietly got them to transfer or leave or what have you.” Spurrier was not the only coach focused on developing his players as men first and then as athletes. During his opening statement at Media Days, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze described his approach, “Chasing Greatness,” to teaching his players what it means to be men on and off the field this spring. “Our young men that we coach these days, they’re not sure what [greatness] means or what that looks like,” Freeze said. “What does it look like in how you treat a female and how you go about in a relationship and the things that we all can do better? What does it look like as a student? What does it look like as an athlete? What does it look like in society? “ Despite the impact of a strong leader, it’s time players take real responsibility for their own actions and learn to avoid places
page 7 “professional” on the field. “He coaches me hard,” Beckwith said. “He treats me like a professional. He tells me all the time to practice like a professional. Anytime I do a play and mess something up, he comes to me and says, ‘Look man, you need to be a professional.’ That’s real special.” But it’s not just Beckwith that Miles is impressed with. The 11th-year coach called the linebacker group “the biggest [and] fastest” that he’s ever had, which includes seniors and likely-starters Deion Jones and Lamar Louis. Beckwith, though, is the quiet leader, learning to speak his mind more when necessary. If he’s able to do that, Miles’ expectations couldn’t be any higher. “He has real leadership ability,” Miles said. “Our guys will enjoy playing with him in that huddle. I think that he fits right in with really the finest linebackers that we’ve had.”

amateur and soon-to-be Oklahoma State University senior finished with a four round score of 277, eleven-under par. Just behind Niebrugge was 22-year-old Ollie Schniederjans who finished nine-under, shooting 279 over the four rounds. Spieth might be the only household name in the group of young golfers at the moment. However, several other young stars left a mark at The Open. Some worried about what would happen to the sport when Tiger Woods was absent from tournaments. As it looks more and more likely Woods will never regain the dominant form he once displayed, people have begun to look for a new heir to become the face of golf. Spieth looks to be the most likely candidate to dominate the PGA Tour in years to come, but there are plenty of other top players still in their 20s to make things interesting. The parity ensures tournaments are unpredictable and fun to watch unfold. Johnson’s name will go down in history, but with a strong showing by the young crowd at the 144th Open Championship, the future of golf will be exciting.

MARIJUANA, from page 1 sions about the production until these state agencies report their positions, which can take up to six months after the signing of the legislation. At that time, the AgCenter will have to work with LSU President F. King Alexander and the LSU Board of Supervisors to consider their position on the production. The AgCenter hasn’t been able to access its capacity for the added research, and has limited land and resources. Regulations for cannabis production are expected to be stiff, and the legislation includes requirements for levels of active ingredients in the plants. Growers would have to produce plants with the lowest possible level of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the chemical that produces a euphoric effect sought by recreational users, but will extract oils that have been used to treat conditions like Glaucoma and side effects of cancer chemotherapy, according to the language of the law. Accessing the medication will require a prescription. There has never been a program like this in Louisiana, Gould said. In some states, schools including the University of Mississippi grow marijuana for research purposes but not consumption, and some states including Colorado have legalized the production of marijuana for recreational use.
BEER, from page 1 we are using is ideal for students or people that simply do not have a crawfish burner to brew in outside.” The kits that will be used in the class will be the same kits LA Homebrew sells to beginners in order to make the brewing process as simple as possible for amateurs. “The purpose of the class and using the kits is to make the process as easy as possible but also to teach people about beer itself,” McClelland said. “Beer brewing is an 8,000-year-old tradition, and brewing beer yourself can give you a connection to the people who were doing it all those years ago. The process has not changed so much, and even back then they were making pretty good beer so it is an easy process.” McClelland said the main reason people are deterred from trying to brew beer is the misconception that brewing at home is too expensive or too complex. He said the kit needed to start homebrewing is $60, and it will give you five gallons of beer. The actual ingredients vary in price depending on how much flavor or body wanted in the beer, but usually the entire process costs around $90 to $100. Five gallons of beer yields around 50 bottles of beer, so the process is more affordable than people think it is, McClelland said. Because the yeast added to the brew takes time to

convert the sugars into alcohol, the brew that takes place in the class will not be alcoholic until days after the brewing process, which means that those making beer in the class will be able to taste it as they make it. “There is an old saying, ‘Brewers make wort, yeast makes beer,’” McClelland said. “What we are doing in the class is getting all of the sugar from the grains into the water so we get this sweet and sugary liquid. Then we add the yeast to the mix to convert those sugars into alcohol. The process creates carbon dioxide which is why beer is carbonated.” Outside of the class, brewing beer comes down to four different ingredients that define the characteristics: barley or grains, hops, yeast and water. “The barley is usually what determines the color of the beer, as well as the sweetness and the roastiness of the flavor,” McClelland said. “The hops are added to the mixture to cut back on the sweetness of the beer. The hops are in charge of how bitter the mix is. Yeast is
an overlooked part of the beer. Yeast gives the bulk of the flavor of the beer.” Brewing is a hands-off process where the ingredients are going to be sitting for a certain amount of time with the brewer only needing to add or remove ingredients to progress the brew. “We say that brewing is half an hour of work in three hours, so there is plenty of downtime between the steps. Since there are gaps in the brew process, we wanted to teach people about the beer and the history of brewing at the class in the downtime between steps,” McClelland said. “We will also be talking about how the different ingredients affect the beer that people will brew after the class. There will also be open discussion at the end of the class for people with questions.” The class will be held at the Main Library, part of the East Baton Rouge Parish Library System, located on 7711 Goodwood Blvd., on Saturday. After the class there also will be a short look at wine, mead and cider making.
