After Pitt student Alina Sheykhet was found dead in her apartment last October, investigators found their biggest lead in private surveillance footage from a local pizza shop — and in the 10 months since, the Allegheny County District Attorney’s office, in partnership with Pitt and UPMC, has installed 60 surveillance cameras throughout Central Oakland. In a public press conference Tuesday to announce the project, Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala revealed 16 live feeds from several of the cameras, which displayed footage from residential areas in Central Oakland as well as UPMC Presbyterian Hospital and other frequently traveled areas. “I want this to be a deterrent to someone getting hurt,” Zappala said. “This is part of what’s going on countywide. This camera system can be reactive and proactive.” The first cameras were installed shortly after Sheykhet’s death. Surveillance footage from Central Oakland showed Matthew Darby, who currently stands trial for first degree murder, hiding weapons allegedly used See Pitt Security on page 2

Kennedy said the board selects candidates via application — as opposed to voting — because of first-year students’ relative inexperience with Pitt. “As a first-year student, you’re just getting accustomed to campus,” Kennedy said. “An election could be a popularity contest.” In addition to a good resumé, Fall said she prioritizes diversity and enthusiasm for First Year Council applicants. She’s looking for prior leadership experience, an interest in getting involved at Pitt and membership in different clubs and social groups on campus in prospective candidates. “We work very effectively because we have people from different backgrounds,” Fall said. But she acknowledged that tensions can flare in rooms full of people with different ideas and backgrounds. “I don’t want political views to prevent someone from applying,” Fall said. “Pressure builds diamonds.” There are five application-only positions available on three other SGB committees for the coming year, including an open first-year position on the Allocations Committee, three spots for students of any age on the Elections Committee and one first-year spot on the Diversity and Inclusion Committee. All committee applications are due Friday, Sept. 7, with the exception of the Diversity and Inclusion application, which is due Friday, Aug. 31. Application materials can be found in the “Join SGB” section of SGB’s website. In addition to application-only committee positions, there are four committees that anyone can join — Academic Affairs, Facilities, Technology and Transportation, Community and Government Relations, and Wellness. Kennedy got her start in SGB in the Wellness Committee her sophomore year. “I was an RA in Tower A, and a friend told me I should work on the Wellness Committee,” Kennedy said. “I started showing up to meetings, was elected chair that spring and ran [for president] the next year.” And Kennedy has big plans for her year as SGB president. SGB will host Civic Engagement Week Sept. 10-14, during which SGB will inform students of their rights and help them register to vote in the upcoming midterms. “SBG is a non-partisan organization,” Ken-

SGB Vice President Jahari Mercer answers a student’s question at Tuesday night’s SGB Open House. Thomas Yang | assistant visual editor nedy said, “but it’s really important to get people out to vote.” There’s also a Fall Safety Fair planned for the weekend of Sept. 18. SGB’s Community and Government Relations Committee and Facilities, Technology and Transportation Committee planned the event in conjunction with the Pitt police, the Wellness Center and Pitt’s Title IX office. SGB is also preparing for October Mental Health Awareness Month, during which it will host speakers, workshops and a Self-Care Fair on a weekend yet to be determined. Kennedy is also pushing an initiative to foster more discussion about mental health on campus. “Every Tuesday of October, RAs will be wearing green mental health awareness T-shirts. People can approach them to talk about mental health on campus,” Kennedy said. Kennedy also moved the Panther Women’s Leadership Weekend, in which female-identifying students go on a retreat with female-identifying staff and administrators, from March to Nov. 1618, to give those students more time to develop relationships with mentors throughout the year. “People told us [The Women’s Leadership Weekend] was so great, but then we just left at the end of the year,” Kennedy said. “We want to give students more time to develop those relationships.” Hannah Srock, a first-year engineering major from Butler, participated in student government at her high school and wants to get involved at Pitt. “Stuff like this makes a bigger school feels small. It makes me feel like I can do something that makes a change,” Srock said.

Pitt Security, pg. 1 in the killing. “That’s happenstance,” Zappala said. “This is a much more comprehensive effort, and Alina’s death had a lot to do with it.” The project to install all 60 cameras cost $95,000 — UPMC contributed $65,000, and Pitt and the DA’s office each contributed $15,000. “It’s a minimal investment when you’re talking about protecting our kids,” Zappala said. With the addition of these 60 cameras, there are now 450 cameras in Allegheny County. Six of the cameras installed in Oakland have license plate recognition, bringing the total number of cameras in Allegheny County with this feature to 60. Zappala emphasized the importance of making sure the students in Oakland

are comfortable with the new cameras while keeping them safe. “I think we have to engage the kids a little bit better too,” he said. “What do the kids want in terms of a safe environment? What are they willing to give up in terms of privacy?” Pitt released a statement via email saying that their support of the new cameras was for the safety of students. “The University welcomes any measure to ensure the safety of our students, staff, faculty, visitors, and residents of Oakland,” the statement said. “Pitt joined in this partnership with the District Attorney and UPMC to enhance safety and security in our campus community and neighborhood. These cameras are a great tool for law enforcement and will supplement the cameras already in use.”

PHILIPPINE NATIONALI T Y Eliminating superdelegates is best for Democrats ROOM HIGHLIGHTS NEED FOR DIVERSITY from the editorial board
The Democratic party became slightly more democratic this weekend. Through a package pushed by Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez and allies of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the party voted to significantly reduce the power of superdelegates — party officials who have 4,000 times more voting power in primaries than the average registered Democrat. The move — a response to the populist insurgency in the Democrat and Republican parties — is one that will certainly unite left-of-center voters at a time when the country’s political system is more polarized than ever. According to Joshua Putnam, a political science professor at the University of Georgia, Democrat party leaders instituted superdelegates in 1982 to ensure that far-left-wing candidates didn’t make it to the general election. This came after Jimmy Carter, a staunch liberal, lost to Reagan in a landslide in 1980. “The system, as it was constructed at the time — with no superdelegates — allowed for insurgent candidates to gather momentum early and win the nomination,” Putnam told The New York Times. “But those insurgent types of candidates were not necessarily well suited for the general election.” But since superdelegates have never voted against the decisions of primary voters, granting special voting rights to party officials — including elected Democrats — never had any real influence on the election. And if Washington elites did have the audacity to vote against their base, they could throw the Democratic party
pittnews.com
into a hugely divisive state. Superdelegates never helped Democrats elect a superior candidate — instead they’ve just undermined Democratic voters’ trust in their own party. This is exactly the sentiment Bernie Sanders voters — the populist contingent of the party — expressed in response to Hillary Clinton’s nomination in 2016. “The superdelegate system is rigged to protect establishment politicians and shut down populism,” Spencer Thayer, a fervent Sanders supporter, said during primary season in 2016. Even though Clinton would have won the Democratic primary without the help of superdelegates, their staunch commitment to voting for her appeared to doom any challenger from the beginning. And while it is true that moderate candidates typically have a better chance of winning the presidency — they can draw votes from both sides of the aisle — Bernie Sanders was an exception to that rule in 2016. During the primary, he polled better than Clinton against all leading Republican candidates — including Donald Trump — yet over 90 percent of the DNC’s superdelegates voted for Clinton. Donald Trump — a populist Republican candidate — proved that voters are shying away from traditional establishment-style politics. So in order to have success in future presidential elections, Democrats need to remove establishment figures from power — and eliminating superdelegates is the most logical first step.
Grace McGinnes For The Pitt News
Work on the Philippine Nationality Room began last May and is expected to wrap up by November 2019, meaning construction on the room will take a far shorter time than its fundraising did. The Philippine Nationality Room Task Force spent 16 years campaigning for the creation of this room, which will officially become Pitt’s 31st Nationality Room and the fourth room representing East Asian heritage upon completion. This is an important step in diversifying the Nationality Rooms, 20 of which represent white European countries. Those rooms more adequately represented Pittsburgh’s demographics when the first few Nationality Rooms were dedicated in the 1930s, at a time when the City’s European immigrant community was thriving. But Pittsburgh has become more of a melting pot in recent years — the Latino community in particular is rapidly growing. The University needs to reflect such changes by expanding the available space for rooms and assisting in funding their construction — and the Year of Pitt Global, this academic year’s theme, could serve as a way to jump-start this movement. According to Michael Stefanick, a member of the Filipino Students Association — the organization responsible for making the Philippine Room a reality — Nationality Rooms mean a lot to the communities they represent. “It means greater representation for
August 29, 2018
not only the Philippine community here on campus but in the greater Pittsburgh area,” Stefanick told The Pitt News. Students with backgrounds from continents other than Europe deserve to see themselves represented with respectful portrayals of the specific cultures they are familiar with. The African Heritage Room, built in 1989, has provided students of African backgrounds with a semblance of this — but it rolls up the entire continent of Africa into one space. With 24 percent of Pittsburgh’s population listed as African-American, individual African countries deserve their own rooms. But if Africa’s representation is inadequate, Latin America’s is even worse. There isn’t a single room dedicated to countries in South America, the Caribbean or Central America. While the Latin community only hovers around 2 percent of Pittsburgh’s population, it’s steadily grown over the past decade. Unfortunately, it can take a lot of time and effort for communities — especially growing ones — to raise funds to pay for a Nationality Room — each room costs over half a million, on average. The Philippine Room took 16 years of campaigning to reach approval, and the final estimated cost was around $525,000. Nationality Rooms are not only expensive — the approval process has become a competitive endeavor. “The Cathedral is running out of space, which makes Nationality Rooms a See McGinnes on page 4

McGinnes, pg. 3 very sought-after commodity for cultural groups around Pittsburgh,” Stefanick said. The Cathedral only designated space for 35 rooms — after the Philippine Room, only four will be left. And since two of those are slated to become Finnish and Iranian, the battle for space will only become more cutthroat in future years. To combat this problem, Pitt should continue the Nationality Rooms on the Cathedral’s second floor — they’re now solely on the first and third floor. Many classes meet on the second floor, so students from all backgrounds can see themselves represented in their very own classrooms — certainly a valuable cultural experience for all students. And in the Year of Pitt Global, Pitt has the chance to take a big step. By opening the second floor to Nationality Rooms, Pitt would make dozens of rooms available. This year is the perfect opportunity for Pitt to begin expanding the amount of space we allocate to building Nationality Rooms.

“Nationality Rooms are an attraction for tourist groups,” Stefanick said. “Representation among other nations there shows the Philippines is just as important as any other established room in the Cathedral of Learning,” Stefanick said. The University can also help some of Pittsburgh’s growing, underrepresented international groups launch campaigns to create rooms. Pitt can do so by working with a community to host fundraising events, make connections and raise general awareness for the group’s campaign. Ultimately, Pitt must first expand access to the Cathedral and open more space for Nationality Rooms, and communities that want representation will surely continue to campaign. Only 400 Filipinos reside in Pittsburgh — which just shows there’s no community too small to be appreciated here at Pitt. The makeup of the community at Pitt and the city surrounding it has changed dramatically since the first few Nationality Rooms were completed. The University’s most renowned landmark must prepare to change with it.

ACC FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS: CLEMSON DOMINANT ONCE AGAIN, WHILE PANTHERS CAN CONTEND IN COASTAL
Cale Berger Staff Writer
Atlantic Division Clemson — Projected record: 11-1 overall (7-1 ACC) Clemson will reign as conference champions for the fourth consecutive year in 2018, and it’s not even close. The Tigers boast four future pros on their starting defensive line and will aim to be the best defense in the conference once again — the only unknown is how well their offense will perform. Quarterback Kelly Bryant showed inconsistency at times in his first year as the starter, and he lost two of his top three targets from last season to the NFL. Still, with a fresh class of five-star recruits ready to make their mark in Death Valley, the Tigers
dre Francois and new head coach Willie Taggart. Francois was a popular Heisman pick last season before a season-ending injury against Alabama in the first game of 2017. He retains a strong supporting cast around him as the Seminoles return eight starters on the offensive side, including leading receiver Nyqwan Murray and leading rusher Cam Akers. The Seminoles should return to form in 2018. NC State — Projected record: 9-3 overall Clemson quarterback Kelly Bryant (2) sets up to pass against Miami Hurricanes in the ACC Championship Game at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina, on (6-2 ACC) December 2, 2017.

PANTHER SPOTLIGHT: KAYLA LUND, EDWARD KIZZA, ANNA RICO
Trent Leonard Sports Editor
Although the fall sports season is barely a week old, several Panthers have already begun to establish themselves as playmakers on their respective teams. The women’s soccer and volleyball teams emerged from the first weekend undefeated and unscathed, while the men’s soccer team faltered in its season opener but earned a win in game two. From hat tricks to all-conference performances, here are the athletes who made a splash in the opening week of Pitt sports. Kayla Lund, Volleyball After an impressive first-year season in which she earned ACC All-Freshman honors, sophomore Kayla Lund came into this year with big expectations — especially with Pitt volleyball ranked No. 1 in the ACC preseason rankings. Lund more than lived up to the hype during the team’s opening three-game tournament —
pittnews.com
versus Butler, notching double digits with 10 kills and 11 digs. She would go on to record another double-double on Saturday against Pepperdine with 12 kills and 12 digs. Her efforts led the way to a 3-0 sweep in both contests. But the highlight of Lund’s weekend came versus No. 24 Cal Poly on Friday night, when she amassed a career-high 20 kills. The dominant performance propelled the Panthers to a 3-1 Sophomore Kayla Lund’s (23) win — their first victory over a ranked team since performance during this weekend’s three- 2016. game opening tournament earned her the Lund’s career weekend earned her several ACC Player of the Week. honors including Panther Challenge MVP, PittsKaycee Orwig | staff photographer burgh Student-Athlete of the Week and ACC dubbed the Panther Challenge — which took Player of the Week.

head to New Jersey to face Oklahoma in game one of the Seton Hall Classic. Edward Kizza, Men’s soccer Sophomore Edward Kizza, along with the rest of the men’s soccer team, started the season on an unfortunate note with a 1-0 loss to No. 25 Colgate in the season opener. Despite leading the Panthers with five shots and four shots on goal, none of Kizza’s shots found the back of the net. Opportunity breeds success, however, and Kizza continued to pepper the net with shot attempts Monday night in the team’s next game at Delaware. This time, the ball found the target on all three of Kizza’s shots, giving the forward his first career hat trick — and nearly matching his previous season total of four goals. Like Lund, the University named Kizza as its other Student-Athlete of the Week. See Spotlight on page 7

ACC, pg. 6 Finley goes, as they only return nine starters on both sides of the ball — less than every other team in the conference. NC State will not be able to knock off the traditional powers in the ACC, but it will take care of business against its lesser conference foes. Syracuse — Projected record: 6-6 overall (3-5 ACC): Syracuse will likely boast one of the most explosive offenses in the conference after averaging the third-most yards per game in the ACC last year behind Louisville and Wake Forest. Senior quarterback Eric Dungey performs well on the field for the Orange, but availability has not been his strong suit. Despite missing three games, he threw for the second-most yards per game in the conference last season. Syracuse will need the offense to be productive to support a defense that finished last in the ACC in interceptions and sacks last season. Wake Forest — Projected record: 5-7 overall (2-6 ACC): The Demon Deacons’ season could go one of two ways — they could be a surprise team in the ACC, or they could be bottom-dwellers. Wake Forest is breaking in a new quarterback in first-year Sam Hartman but will have an above-average receiving core highlighted by senior Scotty Washington and former North Carolina High School Player of the Year Sage
Spotlight, pg. 6 Kizza’s three-goal performance made him the 20th Panther in program history to accomplish that feat, but he didn’t need all three goals to set a Pitt record — his finish off a cross from sophomore teammate Alexander Dexter just 1:40 into the match was the quickest goal scored in team history. The Panthers will need another high-caliber performance from Kizza if they want to pull off an upset in their next match against No. 6 Akron this Saturday at 7 p.m. Anna Rico, Women’s soccer The women’s soccer team won just three games last year — but in its first four games this season, the team has already matched that. The Panthers stayed undefeated Sunday afternoon with a win over Jacksonville to improve to 3-0-1. One of the biggest reasons for the dramatic one-year turnaround has been first-year forward Anna Rico, who paces the team by large margins with three goals, 20 shots and 11 shots on goal. For comparison, the next closest Panther in each category has one goal,

Surratt. Wake Forest played close games with Clemson, Florida State and Notre Dame last year. There’s a chance that they can finally pull off some of those upsets in 2018. Boston College — Projected record: 5-7 overall (2-6 ACC): The Eagles are a team best described as a one-man show. Their star is sophomore running back AJ Dillon, last year’s ACC Rookie of the Year. Dillon ran for 1,589 yards in 2017 with 14 touchdowns, but didn’t peak until the second half of last season, when he ran for more than 1,200 yards during the final six games. Dillon will be a force once again, and a potential Heisman candidate if he can put together a full season of production. Louisville — Projected record: 4-8 overall (2-6 ACC): Over the last three seasons, two words could easily define the Louisville Cardinals’ football program — Lamar Jackson. Jackson accounted for 119 touchdowns at Louisville, earning the 2016 Heisman Trophy in the process. Not only was he an electrifying player, but he also masked many of the Cardinals’ weaknesses. When the offense stalled, he could blow the game open. If the defense couldn’t stop the opponent, Jackson scored the points needed to win in a shoot-out. Now he is gone, and the cracks will show this season for the Cardinals.

11 shots and four shots on goal. Rico made her presence known in the Panthers’ season opener, a 2-1 victory over Ohio, when she scored the team’s first goal of the season. She showed discipline through all 120 minutes of the team’s second game against Morehead State, scoring the winning goal to break a 0-0 tie in the 103rd minute. Rico then kept the scoring streak alive in Pitt’s third game when she netted the team’s lone goal in a 1-1 draw versus Kent State. In an effort to distribute the scoring, head coach Randy Waldrum moved sophomore defender Aideen O’Donoghue up to the offensive front for the team’s next game against Jacksonville. O’Donoghue and sophomore midfielder, Dixon Veltri, scored their first career goals to earn the 2-1 win, but Rico still led the team with three shots and received praise from Waldrum after the game. “We were just trying to find somebody else that has some hunger to score other than Anna [Rico],” Waldrum said. Rico will look to continue her scorching start — and keep the Panthers undefeated — in the team’s next game at TCU Thursday at 8 p.m.
