GS opens up vaccination to all BY DJ CADDEN

Correspondent DJ.Cadden@thegeorgeanne.com

After Gov. Brian Kemp opened vaccinations to all citizens over the age of 16 last month, Georgia Southern has scheduled additional vaccine appointments exclusively for GS faculty, staff and students. GS is currently only administering the Moderna vaccine, which is only approved for people over the age of 18 years old.

Appointments are available through online-only reservations on a first-come, first-serve basis for April 2 at Paulson Stadium. To schedule an appointment, visit the MyGS portal and click on “COVID-19 Vaccine Scheduling Form” under the heading of “COVID-19 Information and Resources.” Additional distribution days are being scheduled for both the Statesboro and Armstrong campuses.

Why GS students are getting their vaccine BY EDEN HODGES

Correspondent Eden.Hodges@thegeorgeanne.com

Last week the George-Anne sent out a Google form to students asking them to send in pictures of themselves after being vaccinated and asked them why they decided to get their vaccine. These are their responses.

I chose to get vaccinated to keep the people I love safe and help move a tiny bit closer to herd immunity!”

Because my father is high risk and I want to keep him safe.” Jenny Heller GS Student

To avoid a deadly case of COVID with my asthma.” Joe Rocheleau GS Student

GS community walks a mile in high-heels to raise awareness on gender issues

BY DAVIS COBB

Correspondent Davis.Cobb@thegeorgeanne.com

The skill required to walk in a set of heels is one many women have had to learn for generations, with the shoes historically being a part of most ‘professional’ attire; Wednesday, members of the Georgia Southern community, regardless of gender, gathered at Sweetheart Circle to try themselves at this skill and bring attention to issues regarding gender violence and sex or gender biases. “The high heel certainly is representative of gender-based violence that typically, women wear high heels, and so that’s a way for men to experience what that’s like and to raise awareness about gender-based violence like sexual violence,” said Lauren Patterson, Chair of the Sexual Assault Reponse Team at GS. Organized by GS’ Sexual Assault Reponse Team since

2013, the event Walk a Mile in Her Shoes encourages men across the world to walk a mile in high-heeled shoes, raising awareness for issues related to gender discrimination. The event has been a yearly constant for the university since 2013, with the exception of last year’s event cancellation because of the pandemic. Patterson and the rest of her team were determined to continue the tradition this year, though adhering to social distancing guidelines would alter the process just a bit. “We love having students, faculty, staff and the community come out,” Patterson said. “That’s another thing about this program, is that we really do try to engage community members to participate as well.” The change in routine to make the event more COVID19-friendly saw little to no negative effect on turnout. Patterson reported seeing a steady pace of participants

throughout the evening’s 2½ hour march – among them several first time marchers. “It gives a different perspective, and it’s a really easy way to better show people that this is a problem that we all have to work against,” said Jack, a junior business administration major. “One person speaking up about the right thing isn’t going to change it; all of us need to do it together.” The event also saw the participation of former students or members of the community taking part in the march, something that Patterson hoped to encourage during the event. “[Gender violence] is a clouded subject, so I feel like a lot of people are sensitive the first time, so a lot of people aren’t willing to go out there and talk about it and say, ‘Hey, we’re here to support you, believe you, back you up.’” said Joe, a GS Armstrong campus graduate.

East Georgia follows GS in their plans for a normal fall semester 2021 BY CAITLIN-GRACE DANIELS

Correspondent Caitlin-Grace.Daniels@thegeorgeanne.com

East Georgia State College sets plans to follow in Georgia Southern’s footsteps in the fall and return back to traditional operations as COVID-19 numbers continue to decrease and vaccine availability rises. “At this time, the USG intends for its institutions to be back at full capacity in classrooms and residence halls, as well as a closer return to traditional student life,” said Jessica Williamson, Director of EGSC in Statesboro. “Vaccine availability and lessons learned during this past year will contribute to this plan.” As of the first week of March, GS students, faculty and staff were made aware of the “Return To Campus Plan” which came out highlighting the news that GS will be resuming normal operations in fall semester of 2021. Last week, EGSC announced they are doing the same due to the high volume

Page designed by Madison Terry

of students who take courses held on GS’ Statesboro campus. “For Fall 2021, it is anticipated that approximately half a dozen EGSC classes will be scheduled on GS’s campus”, said Williamson. “EGSC will continue to work with GS to ensure all guidelines set forth by the USG, EGSC and GS are followed regarding EGSC students on the GS campus.” The decision to resume full operations comes after the college temporarily suspended instruction in March of 2020 for two weeks and then continued the remainder of the semester in an online format because of COVID-19, Harley Strickland reported on ESG’s website. “Over the summer EGSC worked to come up with a safe plan as students returned for the fall semester.” “USG is convening a working group of USG Presidents to offer guidance to institutions,” said Williamson, “We will continue to be flexible in our planning.”

Combating senioritis BY OLIVIA CRAFT

Enterprise Managing Editor Olivia.Craft@thegeorgeanne.com

With the last month of classes among us, many students are beginning to feel the exhaustion and complacency set in. Those who are seniors are feeling especially burnt out due to 3-5 years of higher education. It is easy to slack and fall behind when feeling this type of way, therefore here are some tips to help you try to stay on track for the next few weeks. Yes, soak up the last of the undergraduate college experience, but do not forget

that there are responsibilities. One of the things that I have found the most helpful is compiling a master list of all of the assignments and their due dates for the rest of the semester. I like to keep this list handy so that I can easily see what is due and when. You may have a planner where you like to keep this information, but if you are a procrastinator like me then the masterlist will help with time management. I have learned throughout my three years in college that sometimes seeing everything spaced out on a planner

makes it easier to push it off because you can actually see that you have some time to complete it. It is also important to stick to a routine. Being that spring break has come and gone, there are not really any more holidays that could potentially throw off your daily college routine. If you stick with your routine, you can allot yourself the adequate time for work and play. A way to keep yourself motivated is by starting a “graduation countdown.” If you are not a senior, you could do a “summer

countdown.” This will give you a visual for your goal–to get through the semester. Another way to fight off the effects of senioritis is by surrounding yourself with other students and motivating one another to stick it out for the next month. Support from one another is key during these times. The last semester of college tends to be the most challenging simply because at this point, the majority of graduating students are over even the thought of college. These few easy tips will help you to thrive throughout the last semester.

FASFA and financial aid for dummies BY JENNA WILEY

Reflector Editor-in-Chief

For those of you entering the world of higher education, financing your future can seem like a daunting task. While some feel well-versed in the world of financial aid, others approach this topic with intimidation and unintentional ignorance. Do not fear! Take the time now to educate yourself, and find that the FAFSA is not as scary as it’s made out to be. What is FASFA? FAFSA stands for Free Application for Federal Student Aid. This application applies to current and incoming college students and determines one’s eligibility for financial aid. If you want to receive any form of aid from the federal

Page designed by Lauryn Terry

government, this is the form you will fill out. Am I eligible? Eligibility varies from person to person. Each college or university gives out different amounts of money to different candidates. It is recommended to apply for FAFSA even if you feel unsure if you qualify for financial aid. There are different layers to eligibility in terms of how much money one can receive. Therefore, there is no harm done in applying. Generally, eligibility is based on financial need, US citizenship or eligibility of a non-citizen, a valid social security number and proof of enrollment. How fast is the process? The FAFSA form is actually incredibly easy to complete. If you come

prepared with all of the necessary materials listed on the form, it should take anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes to complete. Beware, you cannot fill out this form without up-to-date and detailed information, so take time to prepare beforehand. What is an EFC? EFC stands for Expected Family Contribution. The information you include in your FAFSA such as family income and tax information determine your EFC. After determining your expected family contribution, the financial aid office at the school in question will subtract your EFC from the COA (cost of attendance) to determine how much financial aid you will receive. Again, the amount will vary for each school.

FASFA is not a “one time thing” Most first-time financial aid applicants ask themselves this question. The answer is no! In order to keep one’s eligibility, one must reapply for financial aid every term. Every October, the new FAFSA becomes available to students and to avoid deadlines, experts recommend filling it out as soon as possible. You won’t know how much money you are getting right away For those who are not experts in the world of financial aid, terms such as FAFSA, EFC and COA seem ambiguous. The FAFSA is the form you fill out for eligibility for financial aid. Solely filling out the form does not guarantee financial aid for the applicant.

Students show their vaccine card for free donuts BY FERNANDA CAMACHO HAUSER

Correspondent Fernanda.CamachoHauser@thegeorgeanne.com

Since mid-March the Krispy Kreme doughnut chain has had their COVID-19 vaccine offer where those vaccinated can show their vaccine card and receive a free glazed donut once a day for the rest of 2021 The George Anne reached out to Devin Stephens and Thomas Helmke, the Statesboro branch managers, to see how they’ve seen this promotion play out since it’s begun. Both Helmke and Stephens have noticed an increase in the number of people that this location sees on a regular basis with a mix of both Georgia Southern students

and community members who have been visiting the location to take advantage of the offer. Helmke estimates that 90% of those who stop by the location for the offer only leave with the free donut that their vaccination card allows them access to. And while those who visit are described as a good mixture of demographics a large portion of those taking advantage of the offer are students and older members of the community. Stephens mentioned that there are times where it isn’t just one person per car but multiple who have their vaccination card to prove their status as a recipient to get their free donut.

Campus thrift store ends after two-day run

Correspondent Davis.Cobb@thegeorgeanne.com

Donated clothing and accessories from students popped up for sale at the end of March in an all-new campus thriftstore hosted by the Office of Community Leadership and Engagement. “It’s a good way to combat fast fashion,” said volunteer Katherine Cappello, a freshman. “A lot of people who come here, they mention that it’s a lot cheaper than Goodwill down the street!” The thrift store was initially planned to be introduced during last year’s Southern

Sustainability Week, but due to the entire event being canceled because of the pandemic and the school’s shutdown, the store’s opening was postponed until it could be properly unveiled this year. “I think it’s a good activity to get people out and looking, and then give them some opportunity to learn about being sustainable and sustainable shopping,” said GS senior Rhiannon Patrick, another volunteer. “Everybody likes cheap clothes!” Students who donated items to the store were provided with store credit

based on what they donated, though credit could also be earned by donating various canned goods and hygiene products, which will go to the Eagle Essentials Food Pantry that provides supplies and necessities to students who need it. Though it was only open for two days–and only four total hours–the store seemed to have been received quite positively by the student body. “I love thrift stores; they’re like my favorite thing to do, so when I saw [the Campus Thrift Store], I was like, ‘I’m definitely going to check it out!’” said Rose, a junior, “It was pretty cool! I like that it’s all donation-based!” Jasmine Stovall, a freshman, said, “I’ve never heard of a campus having a thrift store before, so it’s definitely something new.” The campus thrift store will return next year as part of the next Southern Sustainability Week, so students that missed out will have another chance to check out the store in the future.

BY DJ CADDEN

Correspondent DJ.Cadden@thegeorgeanne.com

After a devastating loss to Clemson, Georgia Southern baseball was back in action this weekend as they hosted bitter rival Appalachian State. On Friday, the Eagle defense shined en route to a 3-1 victory. Tyler Owens pitched six innings and accumulated six strikeouts to push his record to 2-0. Jarrett Brown brought

in two of the Eagles’ three runs, while Matt Anderson brought in the third run. After an average performance on Friday night, the Eagle offense came to life on Saturday. GS walked away with a seriesclinching 10-2 victory. Noah Ledford accumulated three hits, including a home run, for a three-RBI performance. JP Tighe also logged three RBIs of his own in a dominant performance. The dominance came to a

screeching halt on Sunday, when the Mountaineers took down the Eagles, 3-1. Robbie Young brought in two RBIs for the Mountaineers, while Noah Hall extended his record to 4-0 on the mound. For the Eagles, Jason Swan and Steven Curry both recorded two hits. However, Austin Thomspon logged the sole RBI of the game for the Eagles. GS now sits at 12-10 (3-3 SBC) on the season.

While baseball and softball bask in the spotlight, the Eagles’ men’s and women’s golf and tennis teams have also been in action throughout the spring season. The men’s golf team began their season in fall, but have continued play throughout the spring months. The men’s golf team has impressed throughout the season and won the annual Bash in the Boro event. In addition, the Eagles have also accumulated five other top-10 finishes throughout the season. Ben Carr, Mason Williams, Brett Barron and Jake Maples are the only golfers to play in all eight events. Carr and Williams have shined this season and are the only golfers to maintain a stroke average below 72. The women’s golf team also began play in the fall, but have continued their season throughout the spring.

The Lady Eagles have yet to win an event this season, but have recorded six top-10 finishes. Abby Newton and Ella Ofstedahl are the only ladies to participate in every event; however, Alberte Thuesen has the lowest stroke average on the season, with an average of 74.33 strokes. The men’s tennis team began playing in January and has continued through the spring months. The men currently have a record of 10-7 on the season. Alexandros Roumpis and Pascal Wagemaker have impressed the most in individual play. Roumpis has accumulated a record of 19-9, while Wagemaker is currently 18-8. The women’s tennis team also began play in January before the bulk of the season in the spring months. The Lady Eagles are currently 12-8 on the season. Nadja Meier, Mila Hartig, and Paula Hijos have separated themselves as the leaders of the team throughout the season. Meier is currently 10-7 on the season, Hartig is 10-3, and Hijos is 9-5.

Despite dominant opener GS falls in Atlanta Struggles continue as Eagles hit the heart of the season

BY DJ CADDEN

Correspondent DJ.Cadden@thegeorgeanne.com

After claiming a series win over bitter rival Appalachian State, the Eagle baseball team looked to roll their momentum into a weekend series at Georgia State. On Thursday, the Eagles looked absolutely dominant. GS logged a whopping 24 hits en route to a 23-1 victory over the Panthers. 12 different Eagles logged at least one hit, including five players who recorded three or more hits. Tyler Owens struck out five batters in six innings on his way to a third win on the mound, which puts him at 3-0 on the season. This momentum would be short-lived as the Eagles fell to the Panthers in extra innings on Friday. Georgia State walked away with a 7-6 walk off victory.

GS left 10 runners on base, which has become a common theme for the Eagles this season. Ben Johnson took the loss for the Eagles, causing his record to fall to 1-3 in 2021. The Eagles’ rollercoaster weekend continued on Saturday when the Panthers clinched the series with a 3-2 victory. Jarrett Brown recorded three hits to lead the Eagles, while only three other Eagles logged at least one hit. Jordan Jackson struck out six batters, but watched his record fall to 1-4 on the season. After their miserable weekend, the Eagles are currently 13-13 (4-5 SBC) on the season. GS will be back in action on Tuesday night as they travel to Athens to take on the Georgia Bulldogs. The game will be televised on SEC Network+. PHOTO: @GSATHLETICS_BSB ON INSTAGRAM

Eagles fall in second midweek matchup against Cougars Offensive woes haunt GS Eagles BY DJ CADDEN

Correspondent DJ.Cadden@thegeorgeanne.com

After taking down bitter rival Appalachian State, Georgia Southern looked to keep their momentum rolling in Tuesday’s game against College of Charleston. Unfortunately, failures to convert on the offensive side once again came back to bite the Eagles as the Cougars escaped Statesboro with a 6-3 win. The Cougars jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the third, but the Eagles quickly tied it at one in the bottom half of the inning. Freshman Joseph Mershon accumulated two RBIs and scored on a wild pitch during COC’s threerun fifth inning. GS cut the Cougar lead to just one-run on a Christian Avant twoPHOTO: @GSATHLETICS_BSB ON INSTAGRAM

run home run. However, the Eagles would not score another run as the Cougars extended their lead to three runs before finishing off GS. Once again, runners left on base was the difference for the Eagles. In Tuesday’s performance, GS left a total of eight runners stranded. Jaylen Paden’s record fell to 1-2 on the mound, but the talented freshman struck out five batters in 4 innings. GS currently sits at 12-11 (3-3 SBC) on the 2021 season. The Eagles will have a quick turnaround as they travel to Atlanta on Thursday for a weekend series at Georgia State. The series is set to begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday. First pitch on Friday is set for 3 p.m. and the series finale is scheduled for 2 p.m. on Saturday. All three games will be televised on ESPN+.
