Finding unique and magnificent food is a hard task but The School of Hospitality and Tourism Management knows how to prepare their students to accept the challenge and make dishes that people will never forget. The School held the first event of the “Distinguished Chef Series Scholarship” on September 22nd and 23rd.

Q&A: Rodney Ashaba Carter White Staff Reporter
A photography trip lead Rodney Ashaba, a pre-med biology freshman, to bagels and ASAP Rocky. 1. What made you get into photography? Since I was a child, I would see my mother collect pictures from the picture book when we would go on vacation, and I always thought it was pretty interesting. As time went on, she decided to introduce me to cameras, which I didn’t pay attention to because I was interested in other things at the time. But later on, I met people really good at photography, and they explained how it was a way to express yourself and others through pictures. It was sort of a change of heart for me, and I revered it a lot more than I did in childhood. 2. Have you taken photos of anyone famous? About two years ago, I was in Dallas for a music festival, and down the street from where my friends and I were getting bagels, we ran into ASAP Rocky. We actually were going to see him in concert, and we got a chance to sit down and talk to him a bit. I got some pictures with him, and some just of him with my film camera. 3. What does the future of your photography look like? As of right now, I’m more focused on the modeling aspect of it, especially being a model myself. Photography has been a way to get comfortable with the camera beyond in front of it. I’ve started to take my pictures more seriously as people have noticed my talent behind the camera. The future holds many surprises because I plan on travelling a lot, and I want to see cool things and people and take pictures of them, trying to remember as much of my life as I can. news.ed@ocolly.com

Trojan Horse Abby Cage
What Baylor had to say after losing to OSU Davis Cordova Staff Reporter The Baylor Bears are now 2-10 inside Boone Pickens Stadium since 2000 with the 24-14 loss to Oklahoma State on Saturday. In the post-game press conference, here is what Baylor coaches and players had to say on the game. Baylor Head Coach Dave Aranda on the play of QB Gerry Bohanon: “I thought he competed. I thought there was times where it was difficult to hear, and I think there was times where we were changing up our signals because we don’t want anyone
to get them. So, there were things going on outside of the thing he was in and I thought he handled that pretty good. I thought defensively when we needed stops, he was in the huddle, motivating guys. I love Gerry man; I think he gave everything he had and it’s a big growing moment for him.” Abram Smith on not capitalizing on Baylor’s three interceptions: “It’s very frustrating, you know. As good as an offense as we can be, it’s very frustrating that we just can’t put it together sometimes. But you live, you learn. It’s a lot of things we can go and fix.” On each drive after the Baylor defensive turnovers, the Cowboy defense forced a 3-and-out and Baylor was forced to punt. Coach Aranda on going for a fourth-down conversion: “If you look at the analytics, I think it gave us the go-ahead. Just the opportunity to take advantage of the
OUR FINEST HOUR! In the beginning days of the 2nd World War, England was in terrible straits. Nazi Germany had conquered all of western Europe. Only the English channel separated England from the German army. They were being bombed relentlessly. It seemed hopeless. Prime Minister Winston Churchill challenged the people not to give up. He said, “If the British empire lasts a thousand years, may it be said; this was their finest hour.” He said, “We will fight them in the streets. We will fight them in the fields. We will fight them in the hills. We will never give up!” The British won in the end. It was their finest hour! It is easy to think one’s finest hour is when everything seems to be going well and there is great success, however the depth of a person’s commitment and heart most likely is found during the hard times. Jesus’ eternal exaltation came not from some successful outward exploit, but “but being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death--even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name...every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.” (Phil.2:8-11) The cross was his finest hour!
The apostle tells us that everything works together for good in the Christian’s life to make us more like Jesus. (Ro.8:28-29) When we have the opportunities to serve in difficult situations; when we face hard decisions and challenges and walk on with God, we are on our way to being conformed to the image of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is time to trust God’s love and faithfulness and walk with him. This hardship may be our finest hour!
momentum, we thought we were in a good rhythm throwing the ball and in a good rhythm protecting. It’s one of those things to where if we want to be aggressive and we want to be that team, then it’s hard to stop. Fourth downs are great when they work but when they don’t, it always gives you second thoughts. But I think it’s important to be aggressive” With 8:06 left in the game and the score favoring Oklahoma State 17-14, Baylor decided to try and convert on 4th and 4 at the Cowboys’ 36 yard-line. The Bears offense was stopped short and this play ultimately flipped the momentum for the rest of the game. Linebacker Dillon Doyle on the play of OSU RB Jaylen Warren: “I was impressed with him. We knew what he was coming into the game. He’s a one cut guy, he gets up field fast. If you’re displaced, he’ll punish you for it. We just didn’t do
enough things today to be successful and we talk about the run fits and having a guy in every gap, we didn’t do that every time.” Although Warren was held to 3.5 yards per rush, he is nothing but a workhorse that’s hard to stop. Warren ran for 125 yards on 36 carries and two touchdowns. Doyle on playing in Boone Pickens Stadium: “We try not to let the outside effect the inside very much. We came in here and we have the same goals as any other game. We have the seven commandments, and we try and follow those. And we didn’t follow those today. I don’t think it was necessarily the atmosphere. I mean there were a couple of false start penalties, but I think that probably comes with any away game.” sports.ed@ocolly.com

average of 18.6 points per game. Now the bye week begins, giving OSU fans and players alike time to de-stress. It will also give the Pokes a chance to get healthy again, with several players banged up including running backs Dezmon Jackson, L.D. Brown and defensive end Brock Martin. The Cowboys will travel to Austin, Texas, to face the No. 21 Texas Longhorns in two weeks. The Longhorns are undefeated in conference play
but lost Arkansas last month. For as de-stressed as the Cowboys might be for the matchup in Austin, the opposite is true for Texas. The Longhorns will be coming off facing Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry. The stars could align for a spectacular start to the season for the Cowboys. But for now, they are focused on just one thing. Breathing. sports.ed@ocolly.com

Chef... Continued from 1 specifically paired with a glass of great wine. The hospitality and tourism management students work hard to make this event happen. They put their heart and souls into this formal event that will only build them as better professionals and give them real-life experience The goal of the event is not only
O’Colly
Lifestyle to raise money that goes into scholarships for the students but also to let students gain values as important as leadership and group work. This time around they hosted Chef Olivier Gaupin, a director of culinary operations for BENCHMARK, a gloab hospitality company. Pierce Jones, a senior at OSU, works as the back of house culinary at Taylor’s, a student- run restaurant at Nancy Radolph, shared with the O’colly how important for the students it is to have someone with experience teach and guide them. “Chef Olivier taught us so much
while he was here.” Jones said. “He has cooked all over the world, so being able to learn from him is a privilege. Olivier shared with the students that he doesn’t get to be in the kitchen much now and coming here was an opportunity to teach you guys and be in the kitchen again.” This was the first chef event after two years, because of covid the event did not happen last year. There was a lot of pressure on students to make the event as perfect as it could be. Some of the students have never worked at chef events so preparing them for this big of event was one of
the priorities. “ We had a lot of pressure, but the event went so well that we were all proud and relieved when it was over.” Jones concluded. Even with all the pressure, there is also the rewarding part. “Chef event is a great learning opportunity for all of us but we are all relieved and proud when it ends.We get to have real-life experience and it allows us to know what we want to do even before we graduate”
