DIT plans new data safeguards Officials to roll out scanning software, new login steps

Student-athletes get a hands-on healthy cooking lesson at 251 North

By Joe Zimmermann @JoeMacZim Senior staff writer The Division of Information Technology will install software that scans for sensitive data on all university computers and will implement more login steps for systems such as ELMS, officials said. This two-part plan, announced today, will better protect information such as Social Security numbers and credit card information as part of an effort to increase cybersecurity, said Eric Denna, DIT chief information officer. After last February’s security breach that resulted in the leak of 287,580 records of personal student, faculty and staff information, DIT recently found a “surprising” number of university computers still contain sensitive information, and the department needs to do more work to protect it, Denna said.

3 women share success stories at Her Story event

RHA-assisted cleanup kicks off Campus Creek restoration $2 million efforts will take 1.5 to 2 years By Jack Paciotti @thedbk For The Diamondback

Panelists include CIA, Fila employees By Jessica Campisi @jessiecampisi Staff writer From an early age, Stephanie Altamirano La Rue knew she wanted to pursue the field of law. But her road to success wasn’t easy. The 2007 alumna from this university said she “bombed” the Law School Admission Test the first time she took it. She also failed a course in property law while attending the University of Maryland School of Law in Baltimore and was rejected after applying for a job at the Office of the General Counsel. Now a Central Intelligence Agency employee and mother of two sons, La Rue was one of three female panelists who shared her academic and career experiences at the second annual luncheon for Her Story: TerpWomen of Influence in Stamp Student Union on Friday.

Ca mpus Creek restoration efforts kicked off Sunday near Xfinity Center with an RHA-assisted cleanup. The activity was part of the Residence Hall Association’s third annual Beautification Day, during which students work on campus improvement projects. “Usually it’s been we clean up the residence halls because we are the Residence Hall Association,” said Alexis Leary, a junior government and politics major. “But this year, we kind of wanted to switch things up, so we decided to work on this project with them.” The $2 million creek restoration project is part of a larger initiative by the state Department of Natural Resources to restore the Chesapeake Bay. The DNR had identified Campus Creek as a prime candidate for restoration because it is a source of sediment and garbage that flow into the bay.

The DNR awarded this university a $1.5 million grant under the condition that this university raise $500,000 for a project consultant to oversee the restoration efforts. A $50,000 grant from the University Sustainability Fund helped meet that goal after university environmental planner Stephen Reid presented the project to multiple student and faculty organizations to raise enough funds. Carin Celebuski, the university’s coordinator of arboretum volunteers, said the DNR aims to replicate previous successful projects at nearby Paint Branch Creek. “The Army Corps of Engineers just restored — maybe three years ago — Paint Branch Creek, and it’s doing really well,” Celebuski said. “There’s fish in it again. I mean, it’s amazing.” Celebuski, one of the leaders of the creek cleanup Sunday, said the crew had three main goals for the day: awareness, trash pickup and removal of invasive species. “Probably No. 1 is just making people aware of Campus Creek,” Celebuski said. “That it’s our campus watershed; that it’s in pretty bad shape. It hasn’t been maintained for a long time.” See Creek, Page 2

I don’t take ‘No.’ You don’t take ‘No.’ You don’t take ‘No’ for an answer.” After experiencing a similarly male-dominated workforce, La Rue said she decided to turn her focus from Latino issues to women’s issues. La Rue was involved with Latino student groups at this university because they were in her comfort zone, but she branched out as she grew up and found other interests. “As I entered the workforce and as I became a mother, my life shifted,” La Rue said. “I started focusing less on the Latino issues and more on the issues that were affecting women. Because I was living them.” The concepts of mentorship and nurturing a community of women are two important parts of Adele’s Circle of

to cook four full meals that are easy but healthy.” Colleen Davis, the university’s sports nutrition director, approached Gray in 2013 about the cooking class. The class has been operating for two years since then. “I like to do things that are fun and interesting,” Davis said. “I’m teaching the right things to help the athletes perform, and I help them be the athletes they need to be by fueling them to be able to grocery shop and do their own cooking.” The cooking classes, held twice a semester, are open to all student-athletes. Two football players, two women’s soccer players and four track and field athletes participated in yesterday’s class. Each class has a maximum of ten participants who are split into two groups — one led by Gray, the other by Fahey — to cook two different meals at the 251 North buffet stations. Gray’s group prepared a chicken fajita with barbecue red beans, roasted vegetable Spanish rice and spaghetti with sausage, beef, white beans and spinach. Fahey’s group put together a chicken dijon with egg noodles, sundried tomato cheddar tilapia and Cajun roasted potatoes. “The students that come in are very excited,” Gray said. “It’s basically free food, and they get to go back behind the

It just shows how simple it is to do and that they can do it at home.” Gray and Fahey also taught the students about cooking techniques and food safety in the kitchen. Gray said he gives the students lessons, such as knife skills, but the students do most of the work. “It gives you a very different perspective,” said junior communication major and Terrapins football linebacker Abner Logan. “You’re actually back here cooking the food.” Most meals include a lean protein, a carbohydrate and a fruit or vegetable. The original Chef’s Feature dish is sometimes slightly modified to fit these healthy guidelines or make it easier for students to prepare, Davis said. “The recipes are relatively simple, and the instructions are pretty basic,” Davis said. “And it shows that you can make healthy food taste good. Students can come in and say,

‘I eat a lot of chicken and I’m bored of chicken,’ but there are different ways to prepare it to make it less boring.” After each group prepared its food, the final product was put on the buffet lines for everyone to taste. The students then explained what they had made before eating and critiquing the dishes. L oga n sa id he pla ns on trying out some of the recipes he learned in class at his apartment in The Varsity. “T he food’s very good, very fresh, and it’s not very complicated,” Logan said. “I don’t want to have the reliance of buying my food all of the time.” Gray enjoyed the experience of working with the students in the kitchen and providing students with some of the university’s recipes. “That’s the fun part of being here on campus — showing students how to cook and showing them what we’re cooking and what we serve,” he said. jcampisidbk@gmail.com

Student business plans care packages for wounded vets Comfort Crates organization seeks to provide non-medical items for recovery By Naema Ahmed @thedbk For The Diamondback While going to school and working this year, sophomore Will Comfort decided to start his own nonprofit organization: Comfort Crates. T hrough the group, the biology major aims to deliver customized care packages to hospitalized veterans. “ T here’s a lot of g re at p ro g ra m s l i k e Wo u n d e d Warrior Project and charities that do stuff after people are recovered, but there’s nothing that really tries to make their stay more comfortable or make recovery easier,” Com for t sa id. “I want to fill that void.” The packages will provide items to aid wounded vetera ns’ recover y beyond m e d i c a l c a re , i n c l u d i n g pillows, books, movies and other items at the request of the recipients. “It’s been an idea that’s been sitting in my head for a while, and I finally decided it’s a great time to start — so why not now?” Comfort said. Comfort, a member of the College Park Scholars Global P u b l i c H e a l t h p ro g ra m , decided to create the organization as part of his scholars practicum course. “I’m from a big military family, so I knew that was the direction I needed to go,” he said. About two months ago, s o p h o m o r e b i o c h e m i st r y m ajor Joh n L ev i n son joined the Comfort Crates team after meeting Comfort

through their pledge class of this university’s Chi Phi fraternity chapter. Comfort and Levinson are working on raising money to make the crates and looking for their first care-package recipient. The organization received its first $200 through the business and public policy s c h o ol s’ D o G o o d C h a llenge. T he members have a l so ra i se d f u nd s on l i ne through GoFundMe and by selling grilled cheese sandwiches on the campus. “T h rou g h b ei n g i n t he s a m e f rate r n it y a n d b ecoming close friends with Will over the last two years, I’ve been a witness from the sidelines of each subsequent step Will has taken in starting his nonprofit as part of the Do G ood Cha l lenge,” senior anthropology major Drew Doher ty sa id. “It’s been very impressive to see what Will has built from the ground up.” Doherty said he sees potential in the uniqueness of the organization’s mission. “For anyone who has persona lly been or has had a loved one in the hospital for an extended medical issue or rehabilitation, it is amazing how a specifically tailored and unique act of kindness can improve the situation for all involved,” Doherty said. Fi nd i ng a recipient for the first care package has become a bit of a roadblock for Comfort Crates. Comfort and Levinson have been visiting hospitals, passing out fliers and posting on online

“THERE’S A LOT OF GREAT PROGRAMS... THAT DO STUFF AFTER PEOPLE HAVE RECOVERED, BUT THERE’S NOTHING THAT REALLY TRIES TO MAKE THEIR STAY MORE COMFORTABLE OR MAKE RECOVERY EASIER. I WANTED TO FILL THAT VOID.” WILL COMFORT

Sophomore biology major forums in search of a hospitalized veteran to whom they can deliver a crate. “ T h a t ’s p r o b a b l y t h e ha rdest pa r t because the military is big on privacy on who is in the hospitals, so right now we’re trying to find a family just to get sta r ted, a nd once we get t h at, I t h i n k t h i n g s w i l l really start rolling,” Levinson said. After the first crate is delivered, the team will work on expanding and getting out more crates. Comfort said he’ll be working on getting nonprofit ta x status, a nd he would like to create paid positions. Once the project gets off the ground, he aims to make Comfort Crates a nationwide organization. “I feel like this is something that could eventually go forward and reach multiple hospitals,” Levinson sa id. “Bei ng a wou nded veteran is a very depressing type of thing. It could help a lot of people and make them feel better.” newsumdbk@gmail.com

The senior attacker then weaved through the Wolverines’ zone and pulled back her stick. Right before she released the shot, a Wolverines defender smashed her to the ground. But the attempt still found the back of the net and stretched the Terps’ lead to three with 15:08 remaining in the opening half. Lamon’s finish highlighted a Senior Day contest in which the Terps’ veterans played a pivotal role in the team’s 14-9 victory at the Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex. “The idea [was] that today was really just the opportunity to celebrate these 11 awesome [seniors] that we have as a part of our program,” coach Cathy Reese said. “One of the best ways to do that is to leave it on the field.” While Reese has employed several underclassmen in the starting lineup this season, the coach turned to 10 seniors along with junior midfielder Taylor Cummings to kick off Saturday’s game. Attacker Brooke Griffin led her class with two goals, while five other Terps seniors tallied at least one goal or assist on the day. The seniors made contributions from the beginning of the contest. First, midfielder Kelly McPartland assisted Cummings on a goal 42 seconds into the contest. Less than a minute later, Cummings set up Griffin for a goal.

The senior had a goal and an assist. christian jenkins/the diamondback Attacker Taylor Salandra, who made her first start of the season, scored with 26:06 left in the half. “[Salandra] did an excellent job of getting herself open on the offensive end,” Reese said. “She did a really nice job reading their defense and putting herself in a position to be a threat.” Midfielder Mattie Meredith also made her first start of the year. She assisted on Erin Collins’ first-period goal and found the back of the net herself with 17:40 left in the opening half to extend the Terps’ lead to 5-2. Meredith also fielded two ground balls, caused one turnover and secured three draws on a day during which Reese said the seniors showed “great energy.” “The one thing you know for them is you’re going to get 100 percent effort any time they’re in,” Reese said. “Mattie was great on loose balls all over the field, especially between the 30s.” But after the Terps’ pro-

ductive first half, the offense fell silent to open the second. Neither team converted until 17:42 remained in the contest, when Salandra fed a pass to midfielder Lindsay Biondi. “We just need to work on — even when we’re up — staying composed and working on placing our shots and taking the space they give us,” midfielder Zoe Stukenberg said. Salandra’s assist capped the Terps seniors’ production for the day, as Reese turned to many of her underclassmen down the stretch. But as time expired, the Terps’ sideline celebrated the team’s 16th straight victory this season and cheered for a senior class that shone on its day in the spotlight. “ E a c h yea r yo u wa tc h every grade go through it, and then you look back and you look at your four years and your journey, and then it’s your turn,” Salandra said. “Overall, it’s just a really awesome experience.” ccaplandbk@gmail.com

create their own fitness regimens. In a town hall several university departments held Thursday, health center Director David McBride said he had talked with public health school officials about introducing one-credit nutrition classes. This editorial board urges the public health school and the rest of the university to pursue this idea or something similar to help students learn to care for themselves better. OUR VIEW

Although this university offers a variety of courses to choose from, it should also teach students how to manage their health. Each area of health on the campus could benefit from the addition of accessible, low-pressure primer courses. Currently, students often don’t know about available services or don’t want to go out of their way for them. For example, the university’s farmers market offers cooking demonstrations, but they’re at noon on Wednesdays, when many students are in class. With regard to mental health, the Counseling Center has been chronically understaffed, and many depressed students aren’t seeking help in the first place, whether it’s because they don’t think they need it or because they don’t believe it will really help them. Even sexual health could use some

more publicity, though the recent Sex Week events provided plenty of opportunities for students to learn about a more private side of well-being. Many incoming freshmen get to listen to a lecture from “sex professor” Robin Sawyer during their first days at this university, but during the academic year, a formal sexual education is much harder to obtain — Sawyer’s three-credit HLTH377: Human Sexuality class is already full for fall 2015, with an 80-person waitlist. Imagine, then, a one-credit, oncea-week class on physical, mental and sexual well-being, like a healthfocused UNIV100: The Student in the University. It wouldn’t — and probably shouldn’t — need to assign any homework. Each week, students could hear from health experts on the campus — counselors, health center staff, athletic officials or even student-athletes — and learn how to buy groceries on a budget, prepare nutritious meals, keep an exercise routine or talk about safe, consensual sex. For students suffering from depression or in need of sexual advice, the class would help them find more intensive support or at least become more comfortable discussing their needs, serving as an accessible gateway to other services and programs. University officials should work on making such a class a reality as soon as possible, and students and campus organizations should support it as a populist approach to better living.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Rape culture is undeniable

G

SAURADEEP SINHA Opinion Editor

GUEST COLUMN

Educating your lifestyle

onzalo Molinolo’s Thursday column “Social-justice lynch mob” criticizes the retracted Rolling Stone article and perpetuates some harmful values. The piece discusses “rape hysteria” and Molinolo asserts that faulty reporting harms those who might be falsely accused more than those who come forth as victims and survivors. Between the poor use of vernacular and the passiveaggressive insults aimed at those who supported Jackie, Molinolo writes that if we all simply relied on the criminal justice system, things would be dandy. This is tough to digest, but let’s start with Molinolo’s disbelief in rape culture. The irony is not lost on me that Molinolo’s column was published on the same day that the Clothesline Project — a project meant to amplify the voices of survivors who have been systematically silenced by the reality that is rape culture — took place. T-shirts were littered across Hornbake Plaza, telling painful stories of those who aren’t believed. Perhaps Jackie’s story circulated so quickly not because it was shocking, but because it was familiar. Although we may never know what exactly happened on the night chronicled in Rolling Stone, there seemed to be a subconscious knowledge that Jackie’s story was not an isolated incident. It was not an introduction into the world of rape culture — it was the final straw. Although I agree that the Rolling Stone article was a horrible instance of poor journalism, using Jackie’s story to

There are just 18 more days of classes at this university before final exams and, for seniors, a month before commencement. Of course, there’s still a lot this university’s students have to do before leaving College Park for vacation, internships or jobs. For most graduating students, the top priority will be academics — pulling together a group project, getting through the last wave of midterms, passing that exam. It’s a stressful time of year and a time when students can’t spend as much time maintaining their mental and physical health. For those weighed down by homework or depression, it can be difficult to commit to regular counseling sessions or exercise routines. This, however, is not to say that students aren’t ultimately responsible for their own well-being or that this university’s staff and students don’t work hard to help others stay healthy. But there seems to be a disconnect between students’ needs and their actions. With respect to mental health, for example, University Health Center care manager Nicole Silverberg told The Diamondback in October that nearly 80 percent of 9,731 of this university’s students who experienced depression in 2013 did not obtain minimally adequate care for depression. Low-commitment programs or courses could help students mind their mental and physical health by exposing them to more involved services and encouraging them to

lead into an argument for “rape hysteria” is irresponsible. If Molinolo wants the criminal justice system to run its course, he should take his own advice. Although the University of Virginia case has been suspended, it is not closed. While Molinolo is pointing the finger at others for jumping to conclusions, his entire argument is based on assumption. The police chief involved in Jackie’s case explicitly stated that he “can’t prove that something didn’t happen.” Furthermore, Jackie’s friends described her as “depressed,” and it’s been stated that she was diagnosed with PTSD. To expect perfect recollection from someone whose memory medically cannot be expected to be accurate is nonsensical and another example of rape culture. If we’re going to address mob mentality, why are we not talking about the group of trolls who tried to dox Jackie before the investigation began? Why was there no “whining” when a conservative blogger circulated the information of a girl he was certain was Jackie only to find out that he had damaged the image of the wrong person? If you care about letting the criminal justice system do its business without interference, where is the outcry? Is there none because this too is an example of rape culture? And while all of this is happening, and while survivors are being reminded it can happen to them too if they choose to go public, the fraternity brothers at Virginia remain anonymous, and they’ll probably make a

fortune from charges they pressed. The criminal justice system Molinolo wants us to rely on is not built to help rape victims. It has been historically problematic, and changes still need to be made. Instances of reporting are too low, and we need to ask ourselves why that is. All too often, survivors of sexual violence are questioned about what they were wearing, how much they drank, how hard they fought off the perpetrator — the list goes on. The responsibility for the crime someone else chose to commit is placed on the person who is, most likely, traumatized. This happens to survivors every day and is, once again, rape culture. As I finish writing this, my roommates are asking me why I am wasting my time. We know that this won’t change Molinolo’s perception of rape culture, but that is not my intention. My goal is for survivors to know that opinions like his will not go unchallenged. There’s a number of great officials and volunteers on the campus who will believe survivors and who will support them. Many people are working to end rape culture, but while Molinolo gets to write something denying it and go about his day, men, women, and folks of all genders still suffer because of it, and there’s absolutely no justice in that.

t’s that time of year again: SGA election season. Student government candidates will be swarming McKeldin Mall trying to convince students that their political party is superior and persuade them to vote for its slate. You might be overwhelmed with campaign information, be dazed and confused by what all this means and maybe just want to be left alone. I’m currently serving as your student body president and am running for re-election with the Next Party. Before you vote, I want to let you know why Student Government Association elections are so important for you as a student at this university, what the Next Party has achieved and what some highlights of our platform are to let you know what I strive for next year, if elected. Apathy is our enemy, and who sits in the electoral positions within the SGA matters. It is true that the SGA does not have the power to reduce tuition, erase DOTS parking tickets, ensure everyone earns a 4.0 GPA or make the dining halls a Michelinstar experience. Nevertheless, we have the ability to use our collective voices on the campus and at local and state levels to urge those in power to mitigate tuition hikes, ensure student resources such as mental health are adequately funded and guarantee that professors care about our education. This year, we have had huge successes in our efforts to improve this campus. Next Party members and supporters got the University Athletic Council to approve beer and wine sales at university athletic events; we successfully fought to

pass a state bill that protects interns from sexual harassment and discrimination; and we helped protect student groups in advance of the Cole Field House renovation. These are just a few of our achievements. It is important to recognize that we cannot simply bask in our past successes; these wins are just the beginning. Regrettably, one year is not enough time to enact all the changes needed on this campus, especially when you are dealing with administrators who are here for 40 years. If I am re-elected, I promise you we will fight for a comprehensive student bereavement policy. I promise we will battle to ensure that, at the very least, students in South Campus Commons will be able to park their cars on the campus to go grocery shopping and participate in internships. I promise we’ll expand on-campus tailgating to more student groups to make game days safer, more organized and more enjoyable. I promise we’ll work as hard as we can to make sure every student is given in-person peer sexual assault training so we can help combat rape culture on the campus. If you would like to learn more about what members of the Next Party have done this past year, you may read our 18-page plan to see what exactly we will do to help all students on this campus, go to www.nextpartyumd.com and check us out on Facebook.com/nextpartyumd or on Twitter at @nextpartyumd. No matter what you decide, I hope you vote in SGA elections next week so you can make sure the best students are in place to make your time at this university better.

weeks, I’ve traveled into Washington four times, all for different, amazing experiences. I went to free concerts, enjoyed the cherry blossoms, visited museums and, like the Olsen twins in The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley, was able to make it back to the campus in time for dinner. Washington is incredibly accessible and incredibly underutilized. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why any student would pass up the chance to attend events, work in the nation’s capital, or browse the Library of Congress — although I’ll attribute that last one to my own love of books and gorgeous historical libraries. When applicants visit this university, presenters rave about the endless opportunities in attending school close to Washington. What happens between visiting this university and enrolling that makes us forget all of that exists? We have a great balance here in College Park, so take advantage of it. Whether you decide to peoplewatch on the Metro or apply to intern for The Washington Post, remember that you have opportunities here that are too unique to pass up.

h e n I s ta r te d l o o k i n g at colleges, I was sure I wanted to go to a city school. These schools seemed to have it all: tall buildings, nightlife and always something to do. Plus, my internship opportunities as a prospective journalism major seemed to stretch for miles. I couldn’t see myself anywhere else. Then I visited them. It turns out that getting a feel for a school through your computer screen is virtually impossible. As I walked around the city schools that topped my list, I wasn’t disappointed. Everything I thought I would see, I did. But then I visited this university, and it had something that the city schools didn’t: a real campus. I’ll admit, the brick can be ove r wh e l m i n g a t f i rs t , b u t I’ve come to call this university my home. I wouldn’t trade my days sitting on McKeldin Mall for dingy sidewalks and endless traffic. This university also had something that other state schools Samantha Reilly is a freshman jourdidn’t: everything I loved about nalism major. She can be reached at the city.

orn today, you are destined to last. This means, of course, that you are sure to be remembered even long after you have shuffled off this mortal coil. What may be surprising, however, is that you are not necessarily to be remembered for how you spend the most time and energy in life. In other words, though you may work hard in your career and achieve a certain level of success and fame, you may well achieve a kind of immortality in doing something that is entirely different from your routine or habitual activities. Indeed, the thing that brings you lasting fame could be something you do only once, and almost by accident! You must guard against trying too hard; some things, after all, just happen. You have a great deal of creative energy and talent, but there are times when your nature may conspire against you. When it comes to difficulty or “hard knocks,” you may react by withdrawing or lashing out, and either of these responses can be detrimental or even disastrous. Also born on this date are: Shemar Moore, actor; George Takei, actor; Luther Vandross, singer; Jessica Lange, actress; Crispin Glover, actor; Clint Howard, actor; Don Mattingly, baseball player; Harold Lloyd, silent film star; Joan Miro, artist; Joey Lawrence, actor; Nina Foch, actress; Ryan O’Neal, actor. To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide.

TUESDAY, APRIL 21 TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may need more than a map to get around; perhaps you can engage the services of someone who has been there before. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Be sure you know what you really want, because once you’ve asked for and received it, there’s no going back. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A change in your living situation may be in your future. You will want to take stock of things in a way you haven’t before. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You’re seeking a way out of a tight spot. A friend or partner is able to lead you only so far, so be ready to go it alone. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may realize that things are not the way they were before, but surely this can work to your advantage. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -Your ability to keep all manner of facts and figures straight will serve you well throughout the day, and perhaps increase profits.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You must be willing to take responsibility for those things that do not go according to plan. In this way, progress is made. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You may be trying to argue both sides of an issue, but this isn’t exactly fair, is it? It’s time to make a decision, one way or the other. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You’re able to see things the way they are, with no ornament or embellishment, which can be rather surprising at times. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -You know what’s really happening, even if others don’t. This gives you an advantage, but also burdens you with a greater duty. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Though you must schedule your day with great care, you must also prepare yourself for certain unforeseeable variables and obstacles. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’ll be able to prove to others that you are very much in the thick of things. Your competitive nature is on display. COPYRIGHT 2015 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

ESSAY | BALTIMORE ROOM PIANO

tickle the ivories The mystery of the piano in Stamp Student Union’s Baltimore Room

the piano in the corner of Stamp Student Union’s Baltimore Room is a spot for students to practice and perform. It’s a tan upright that is a lunch companion for many students, a practice spot for some and a testing ground for others. enoch hsiao/the diamondback By Maeve Dunigan @maevedunigan Staff writer Perched in the back right corner of Stamp Student Union’s Baltimore Room, a tan upright piano peers over students as they congregate and eat. It’s not a fancy instrument. Its once-pristine wood paneling sports a myriad of scratches and other blemishes. Its bench is a humble four-legged piece of furniture. Its keys sound as though they might be the slightest bit out of tune. Its only companion is a rather large fake potted fern that sits beside it, collecting dust. Admit it. You know the Baltimore

Room piano all too well. You know it because the soundtrack to your lunch has at one point been a mistake-riddled rendition of “Heart and Soul” played by two bored freshmen. You know it because of the time you had to make a phone call and you moved to the piano’s bench, seeking a quieter place. You know it because once you’ve tapped a few of its keys, just to see if you still remembered how to play “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” The Baltimore Room piano seems almost like an odd social experiment, as though someone left the large instrument in a sea of students just to see what would happen. On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, sophomore computer science major

Joel Pool occupied the piano’s bench, playing tunes patched together by his own imagination. “Is it too loud?” he asked as he saw me approaching. I assured him that, no, I hadn’t come over to chastise him for disturbing the quiet of the eating space; I just wanted to know what compelled him to spend his lunch playing in front of the largely apathetic crowd. “I felt like writing a song,” he said. “I came up here and was thinking about what I could do the song about, and then I started playing the piano just for fun.” There’s something remarkable about an instrument that seems to exist for the sole purpose of being played on a

whim. Sometimes you’re in Stamp and you have the urge to buy a sandwich; sometimes you run into friends and decide to hang out; and sometimes you feel like hopping on a piano bench and playing Beethoven’s “Für Elise” until everyone in the room hates you. If there can be a piano in the Baltimore Room, why not put instruments in other unsuspecting locations? Let’s put a harp in the middle of Hornbake Plaza, a lone tuba near the stir-fry line in South Campus Dining Hall, a full organ in the designated smoking area next to the corner of McKeldin Library. Why not? Who cares about being the state’s flagship institution and having the largest academic mall? Let’s make impulsively playing lone instru-

ments in populated areas our thing. I like to imagine the Baltimore Room’s piano was brought in one day long ago for a small concert happening in the space, and when the event was over, the person in charge of moving it decided he or she was tired of carting around instruments and just left it behind. If that’s the case (which it almost definitely isn’t), I would like to extend my thanks to the person who left the piano. Your laziness and refusal to move an instrument have given the Baltimore Room an amazing gift. It’s the gift of music — both good and bad, and whether we like it or not. mdunigandbk@gmail.com

ESSAY | APPLE WATCH

APPLE WATCH: JUICY OR ROTTEN? The Apple Watch, which comes out this Friday, seems derivative but could run a path to success By Hannah Lang @DBKDiversions For The Diamondback The jokes were funny when the iPad was first released in 2010: Is it a giant cellphone without the phone part? Who was the genius that decided to name this thing the iPad? But the teasing started to fade after

1 million iPads were sold after just 28 days on sale. Five years later, it’s considered a revolutionary product that has spawned hundreds of advances in the tablet market. Is the Apple Watch destined for the same fate? It’s set for release April 24, but some experts estimate Apple has already fulfilled between 1 million

and 2 million preorders. There are three versions of the Apple Watch: the regular Apple Watch, the Apple Watch Sport and the Apple Watch Edition line (if you have more than $10,000 lying around). Although Apple is strategically releasing its newest product and doesn’t seem to have the world “failure” in its vocabulary, I don’t think the Apple

Watch will see much success. The biggest reason: To have a functioning Apple Watch, consumers also need to have an iPhone. While the watch is essentially a mini-iPhone you can strap on your wrist, you need an iPhone for the watch to work. The iPhone is the most popular smartphone in the U.S. — more than

BUCKEYES From PAGE 8 undefeated [in conference play], is really important for us,” coach John Tillman said. “They handled us for most of the game. Give credit where credit is due. For 56 minutes, they were in charge.” The No. 3 Terps (12-1, 4-0 Big Ten) have won three contests in a row by one goal after a string of blowouts during the early stages of their 11-game winning streak. The team can clinch sole possession of the Big Ten regular-season title with a win over rival John Hopkins on Saturday. But with less than five minutes remaining in regulation, it seemed the Buckeyes (10-4, 3-1) were on the verge of capturing part of the conference crown. Tillman’s squad trailed by four and was in danger of dropping its first bout since the second game of the season. That’s when the rally started. First, attackman Matt Rambo scored from the left wing with 4:22 left. Midfielder Henry West added another goal about a minute later. After an Ohio State player threw the ball away on a stalling violation, LoCascio capitalized on the Terps’ man-up advantage to cut the deficit to one.

“THEY HANDLED US FOR MOST OF THE GAME. GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. FOR 56 MINUTES, THEY WERE IN CHARGE.” JOHN TILLMAN

Terrapins men’s lacrosse coach Midfielder Andrew Walsh won the ensuing faceoff cleanly, and the Terps took a timeout. West found Colin Heacock along the left alley, and the attackman slipped a low-to-high shot into goal to force overtime. “The comeback was just unbelievable,” said goalkeeper Kyle Bernlohr, who made eight saves in front of friends and family in his home state. The Buckeyes won the first faceoff of overtime, but Terps defensive midfielder Isaiah Davis-Allen stripped midfielder David Planning in front of the net, setting the stage for Carlson’s heroics on the next possession. The Terps resembled a different team through the first three–and-a-half quarters, though. After allowing the game’s first four goals in the first period, the Terps’ topranked defense had little room for error. They tried man-toman coverage and a zone, but neither scheme worked.

“They shot fast; they shot accurate,” Bernlohr said. “It was definitely a wake-up call. We were able to slow it down after that.” The unit had no answer for star midfielder Jesse King, who scored four goals to push his season total to 34, which ranks second in the Big Ten. King scored his final goal with 10:16 left, pushing the Buckeyes’ lead to 9-5. They didn’t beat Bernlohr again. Ohio State held the ball for long stretches at the end of the game, which resulted in three 30-second clock warnings and a delay-of-game penalty. The Terps, meanwhile, aggressively attacked the net to mount the turnaround. Before Carlson’s game-winner, he tried dodging toward the cage, but midfielder Kacy Kapinos pushed him away. So Carlson wheeled around the other side and pulled his stick behind his head. Kapinos lost his footing and tumbled to the turf as Carlson’s shot whizzed into the net. One Ohio State defender crouched down; another put his hands over his head. And a few feet away, the Terps charged Carlson and celebrated the comeback win. “The guys really wanted this game,” Carlson said. jneedelmandbk@gmail.com

titans From PAGE 8 9-5 victory. He limited the Titans to one run on six hits through six innings. “It was big for him to step up right there,” catcher Kevin Martir said Saturday. “He was pitching out there for Tayler. He was like, ‘I’m doing this for him. I’m just going to step up and do what I have to do.’” On Sunday, left-hander Jake Drossner, who entered the game 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA, started his fifth game this season for coach John Szefc’s squad. He tossed eight scoreless innings and allowed three hits. But the Terps offense couldn’t solve the Titans pitchers Sunday, and Cal S ta te Fu l l e r to n s e c o n d baseman Taylor Bryant hit a home run off left-hander Alex Robinson in the 10th inning to take the Titans to a 1-0 victory. “That was probably the first time I went out there and threw eight strong since probably high school,” Drossner said. Shawaryn’s win Friday marked his 20th career victory, tying the program record held by John Rayne, who played from 1989 to 1992. The Terps ace went eight

While the Titans limited Szefc’s squad to two combined runs Friday and Sunday, the Terps’ pitchers put the offense in a position to win. The Terps scored both their runs in the second inning Friday, and with Shawaryn shutting down the T itans, the two runs on four hits were enough to seal the victory. The offense exploded for nine runs Saturday but again struggled in the final game of the series. The Terps failed to drive in any of their eight base runners Sunday. Still, Drossner’s outing

allowed the Terps to compete into extra innings. “It was definitely a relief to u s,” s h o r ts to p Kev i n Smith said. “But at the same time, we have to put up some runs for him. If we won the game, he would have gotten a lot of credit.” A n d eve n t h o u g h t h e offense couldn’t provide the necessary run support for the sweep, Drossner’s start capped an impressive weekend on the mound. “There really wasn’t a formula,” Drossner said. “Mike did the same thing, and Galligan did it on Saturday. Just compete and get right after them.” kmelnickdbk@gmail.com

Carlson’s OT score caps rally Terps end contest on five-goal run to stun OSU in 10-9 victory By Joshua Needelman @JoshNeedelman Senior staff writer With less than two minutes remaining in overtime of the Terrapins men’s lacrosse team’s game at Ohio State on Saturday, Jay Carlson blew an opportunity to help the Terps cap a massive comeback. After midfielder Joe LoCascio fired a wild shot, Carlson snatched the ball out of midair and tried scoring with a behind-the-back effort. Instead of taking his time and finding a clean look, the attackman made an attempt that merely trickled to the sideline. “I was like, ‘Run it out, run it out,’” Carlson said. “Or else I might’ve gotten some s--- after the game.” Less than a minute later, though, Carlson was buried under a dogpile of black jerseys as the hero who ensured the Terps a share of the Big Ten regularseason title. With 49 seconds remaining in overtime, Carlson wrapped around the cage and whipped a right-handed shot into the top-right corner of the goal, capping the team’s five-goal run in a 10-9 comeback win before an announced 21,064 at Ohio Stadium. “Knowing that we could go in here and get a win against a really good team, but also a team that was See buckeyes, Page 7

Titans overthrown Strong pitching leads to series victory over Cal State Fullerton

By Kyle Melnick @kyle_melnick Staff writer Cal State Fullerton’s Scott Hurst stood on third base with one out in the fifth inning of the Terrapin baseball team’s game Friday in a strong position to score the Titans’ first run. But with the Terps leading by two runs, righthander Mike Shawaryn struck out the next two batters to escape the inning. Shawaryn faced the same situation the next

inning with Titans third baseman Dustin Vaught 90 feet from home with one out. Displaying the composure he showed in the fifth, Shawaryn responded with two straight strikeouts in an eventual 2-1 win. The sophomore’s dominat start set the stage for a string of strong pitching performances over the weekend, which helped the No. 24 Terps take two out of three from Cal State Fullerton at Bob “Turtle” Smith Stadium. “I slowed the game down out there,” Shawaryn said Friday. “Sometimes it can speed up with you. A man on third with one out, you can kind

of get deer-in-headlights. I took a couple deep breaths and executed my pitches.” After the second pitch of the game Saturday, starter Tayler Stiles was carted off the field when Vaught lined the ball back at the left-hander’s face. The Terps’ pitching didn’t falter after the emotional scene, though. Left-hander Robert Galligan, who entered Saturday’s game with a 1.21 ERA in 22.1 innings, earned his first win of the season in the Terps’ See titans, Page 7
