UT student, alumnus propose self-sustaining orchard plan Started in January 2013, the Big Orange Orchard initiative has given way to other ideas, such as an expansion to Project V.E.G.G.I.E.’s current garden along and more accessible locations like Pedestrian Walkway. “We can do it so that all the products of the different trees and things are used in the dining halls,” Weller said. “It could be so that students could literally pick from them as they walk by. We played with the idea of maybe saying that every building had a few plants near it so that each building would have its own special area.” In contrast with Project V.E.G.G.I.E.’s current planting system, Brown and Weller hope to create a more self-sustainable garden.

Pentagon Memorial designer joins UT faculty Destinee Dowdy Staff Writer The attacks on 9/11 scarred the nation; Julie Beckman’s memorial helped it heal. Beckman, designer of the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial and the Space Shuttle Challenger Memorial, joined the UT family this month as director of student services for the College of Architecture and Design. Beckman’s architectural path began when she attended Bryn Mawr College, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in the growth and structure of cities. She then earned her master’s in architecture from Columbia University in New York. Beckman has harbored an interest in architecture since high school, but her career took off when she and her husband, Keith Kaseman, entered the 2002 design competition for the Pentagon Memorial. “We were living in New York at the time of 9/11, and so we entered the competition as a means to deal with our own grief and coming to terms with what happened,” Beckman said. “Given that we are designers by profession, we felt that the competition was an opportunity for us to contribute to a conversation about how to remember.” The Pentagon Memorial design competition in Washington, D.C., was open, international and anonymous. More than 1,200 submissions were deliberated by a jury of design professionals, family members of 9/11 victims and former defense secretaries. Six finalists were chosen to receive a stipend to further develop their design through models and drawings. In March 2003, after presenting the designs to the families of some of those killed in the attack, Beckman and Kaseman’s design was chosen. The memorial was dedicated in September 2008.

Students light a candle on Dec. 5, 2012 for the “Light a Candle for Peace” vigil in memory of lives lost in the ongoing war between Gaza and Israel. The Hillel Jewish student organization co-sponsored the event with the MESA’s Action group for Gaza. The Hillel Organization is also partnering with the Muslim Student Association to host an open forum on Tuesday at the Melrose Courtyard beginning at 8 p.m to discuss the topic.

“As it’s progressed, Project V.E.G.G.I.E.’s ideal system has played into it very heavily,” Brown said. “The difference between permaculture and what we do right now is that V.E.G.G.I.E. focuses on annual planting: things that die and have to be replanted. “Permaculture planting is focused more on perennial plants that grow for many, many years without dying.” To fund the Big Orange Orchard, Brown and Weller are applying for various grants including the Ford College Community Challenge and a spot at the Clinton Global Institute at Arizona State University. Additionally, Brown and Weller are seeking an allocation from the existing student

“green fee,” a component of university fees. Distributed on a semester-by-semester basis, this fee is intended to fund projects like the introduction of permaculture. Should the plan succeed at UT, Weller and Brown envision similar gardening throughout the community. “The original idea was to stretch this from downtown Knoxville and get the entire community involved so you could eventually have plots on campus and downtown and in Fort Sanders, so it would be like a giant fruit trifecta,” Weller said. “These three places are all within walking distance of each other, so it makes it kind of perfect.” Chad Hellwinkel, a research

assistant professor at the Agricultural Policy Analysis Center, studies permaculture and its implementation. “Permaculture has to do with total system design,” Hellwinkel said. “So, a complete ‘permaculture campus’ would involve components like building design, heating and cooling systems, water sources, waste water, food production, waste food, soil health. A true permaculture design would integrate the wastes of one component into the needs of another, so that there is zero pollution. No garbage, no waste water, etc.” However, Hellwinkel acknowledged the difficulties posed by such changes, despite enormous benefits. See PERMACULTURE on Page 2

Groups plan Israeli-Palestinian forum Emilee Lamb Assistant News Editor Israelis and Palestinians are living between blurred lines. Since the formal recognition of the Jewish state of Israel by the United Nations in 1948, the area has been embroiled in a conflict of shifting borders and ancestral claims on the “holy land” of three different religions. Hoping to bring the Israeli-Palestinian conflict into perspective for the campus population, UT’s Hillel/ Jewish Student Organization is partnering with the Muslim Student Association to host an open forum discussing the topic on Tuesday beginning at 8 p.m. “The idea for the event

really grew organically by the speakers in an attempt to share personal stories rather than political rhetoric,” said Deborah Oleshansky, director of Hillel. “They are all aware that most UTK students do not have a direct tie to the Middle East and they wanted to share information/experience and tolerance.” The forum, to be held in the Hodges Library Auditorium, will feature four speakers, sharing first-hand experiences. Arik Kershenbaum and Amiyaal Ilany will represent the Israeli perspective while Wala Habiby and Abdelrahman Murphy join the table as representatives of Palestinian sentiment. Oleshansky said she hopes the event facilitates the kind of discussion student groups feel

is needed on campus. “Students are optimistic that the program will be received in the spirit it is intended – open sharing of personal experience and feelings,” Oleshansky said. “The program is intended for personal reflection and sharing – not as a political debate. If anyone begins to turn the program, they will be asked to stop and be respectful.” Olivia Jones, a senior in middle eastern studies and acting president of Students for Justice in Palestine, spent two summers and the past academic year studying in the Middle East. During her time abroad, Jones traveled to Jordan where she worked in Palestinian refugee camps. See FORUM on Page 2

‘Sex with Feminists’ ‘Back on track’: Lady Vols kicks off Sex Week dominate Gators, 89-69 Jessica Karsten Contributor Pair the “sexual revolution” and a wave of feminism with the culture of the mid70s in Canada, and unconventional things are bound to occur. “Sex with Feminists” is a new comedic play written by award-winning Canadian playwright John Lazarus that takes the audience back to this historical overlap. UT students have been given the opportunity to witness this developing story with Lazarus visiting campus this week, leading up to a staged reading of the unproduced play this Saturday. Lazarus was born in Montreal and trained at the National Theatre School of Canada to be an actor, but later transitioned into play writing when he decided he could write a better play than the ones he had been acting in. He now teaches playwriting at Queen’s University in Ontario. “Though Canada has long traditions in most art forms, we did not have much of a

tradition in professional theater or playwriting until the 1970s,” Lazarus said. “I was part of a pioneer generation; I had no mentors, so I’m selftaught.” Lazarus’ plays have been produced across Canada and the United States, as well as in England, France, Germany, Italy, Israel and Japan. His best-known play is a comedy based on Jewish folklore called “Village of Idiots,” and his latest play, “The Grandkid,” is on the way to publication and will soon receive its second production. Now, he is ready to bring to life a play that he has been working on for five years with a staged reading performed by MFA acting students in the theatre department, who were selected for their program after more than a thousand auditions across the U.S. “It’s about a young couple who get involved with another woman who’s active in the feminist community,” Lazarus said. “‘Sex with Feminists’ has its serious side, but I hope there are a lot of laughs.” See LAZARUS on Page 5

An apple a day, freshly picked on the way to class from the Big Orange Orchard. This is the vision of Neil Brown, a senior in chemical engineering, and UT alumnus Chris Weller: a series of selfsustaining gardens across campus providing low-maintenance, edible additions to campus. Hoping to begin planting by next fall, Weller and Brown have been working to meet with landscape architecture professors, the Office of Sustainability and other authorities for feedback on current plans. Once finalized, the project must be approved by Facilities Services.

“We’ve been putting it together,” Weller said. “This week, we met with a couple landscape architectural professors on the Ag campus about getting some plans drawn up as far as actual designs go. Today, we met with the sustainability manager of the university as getting their office’s support in this for a grant writing aspect.” In addition to administrators, students, too, are invited to contribute to planning and implementation. “We’ve been trying to get a survey together for students,” Weller said. “We’ve gotten a lot of feedback from faculty and different offices, but we’ve only talked to our friends as students, and we’ve only got so many friends.”

Staff Writer Before every game this season, senior guard Meighan Simmons has stepped off the hardwood, embraced one of her favorite fans and then returned to the court for the opening tip. That special fan is UT head coach emeritus Pat Summitt. It was only fitting that the team’s lone senior led the way in the No. 11 Lady Vols’ 89-69 victory over the Florida Gators at Thompson-Boling Arena on Thursday’s “We Back Pat” night. With Summitt in mind, Simmons produced her second-straight 20-point game as she poured in a game-high 21 points and connected on five of Tennessee’s 10 made 3-point shots. “The game gave me some extra oomph today knowing that it was Pat’s day,” Simmons said. “I think that was the mentality for a lot of us and we just went out there and we played hard. We knew that if we were going to go out there and play we had to fight for her because it was her special day.” Sophomore forward Bashaara Graves also had a big night on the offensive end as well, scoring 17 points on 7-of-8 shooting from the field.

BECKMAN continued from Page 1 “The process involved a lot of thinking about how one would remember the 184 individuals that were lost,” Beckman said. “September 11 was such a unique event in the sense that over 3,000 people lost their lives, and these are people who were just going to work or going on the trip. “It was an array of all kinds of people, so we wanted to make sure the memorial would be timeless and the remembrance

If converted to an “edible

campus,” UT would be one of largest schools in the nation to hold this title. “I think it would be good for the university as well because this would be one of the first schools that would have done this ever,” Brown said. “For a school as big as UT, it would be even more amazing and astounding that we could pull it off.”

of those people would go on for generations to come, long after those who experienced 9/11 were gone.” Upon winning the memorial competition Beckman and Kaseman formed Kaseman Beckman Advanced Strategies, a small design practice operating out of Knoxville and New York City. KBAS was chosen as the design team for the Space Shuttle Challenger Memorial in Nacogdoches, Texas. However, the project was delayed when Hurricane Katrina hit the South. Often, Beckman’s design process begins with questions not only about the building’s future purpose, but its untapped potential and versatile uses. “We like to come up with these ‘hard to pinpoint the answer to’

questions that would get us thinking differently about how space could be used,” Beckman said. Beckman said she eagerly anticipates working with UT’s architecture program. “At UT I am looking for the opportunity for the students to get connected with outside industry professionals like local, regional, and national design firms,” Beckman said. “I’m looking for an opportunity to expand the travel abroad possibilities and for ways to recognize students’ outstanding and exemplary works through internal and external opportunities. “I’m really happy to be here and to help build this program. We have a relatively new dean, and so I am excited to be joining his forces to make the College or Architecture nationally known.”

FORUM

“On many campuses in the country there is discord between these groups, and here at UTK, Hillel, MSA and other Middle East Students groups have always been respectful and have partnered many times to bring positive, healing and progressive attention to the Middle East,” Oleshansky said. Jones echoed this sentiment, and said those affected by a conflict on distant shores are sitting in UT’s classrooms. “I hope that a forum discussing Israeli-Palestinian relations will be an impetus for people to question the current state of affairs in the region,” Jones said. “All people should have the right to live with peace of mind, the freedom of movement, and security – Israelis and Palestinians alike.”

continued from Page 1 “The people are suffering from lack of services and proper shelters,” Jones said. “The living conditions of the camps have political and social implications and inform of the Palestinian refugees lack of mobility both physically and socially. The right to return is now largely dismissed altogether, but hope and belief in returning to Palestine is very much alive in these camps.” Despite the politically charged environment surrounding discussion of Israeli-Palestinian relations, Oleshansky said she is confident UT’s students will represent approach the topic diplomatically.

ARTS & CULTURE Latin American artists paint with great purpose • Photo Courtesy of Orlando Roque

Hannah Moulton Contributor Six Latin American artists came together Thursday to discuss their soul-baring artwork. Artists Rafael Casco, Roman Murillo, Ivan Soto, Delia Flores, Sergio Martinez and Dennis Berrios are part of the “Latin American Art in a Global and Social Context” exhibit. “We want these artists to engage in cultural exchange and understand, get to know East Tennessee,” Angela Wiemken, from Dragonfly Art Dimensions said. “Wiemken was part of the team that arranged for the artists to come to Knoxville. “Part of our mission is to expose a different style of artwork that we are used to seeing here,” Weimken said, “and also show the diversity that comes from Latin America.” However, exposing the diverse artwork isn’t the only mission of the artists. In their country they are experiencing political conflict; it is this conflict that inspires them to use art to bring about social change and to express things that cannot be said with words. “It’s my way to have a proposal of change,” Casco said. The artists spoke of how they find inspiration in the children of Honduras. Berrios, specifically, spoke about how he paints to influence the children to stay off the streets and out of trouble. Berrios said he is learning during the process of teaching, which helps him better understand his society. Each artist pointed out that it is important for them to express the emotions from their specific heritages. Put simply, they try to paint what their country is feeling. Flores said the artists channel the negative emotions their

Although that entails going against their own government at times, Flores also said the group has embraced that they can bring about change through their art. “When the people who decide to be an artist,” Flores said, “they become an inspiration.” For the artists, understanding others’ emotions, as well as their own, is crucial for their artwork, Casco said. “This is our face, from our soul, to show you guys who we are as an artist, as a person, as people from other countries,” Casco added. The artists also said they use

their art as an escape, noting that with their art they can see things and experience things they would have never experienced without putting it on canvas. “This is something valuable, it’s also very important,” Murillo said. “You’re looking for a reason to see things and explore things that I didn’t really have.” However, the artists made it clear they are not painting for profit. For the five, they simply paint because they believe it’s their calling. “We need to find a way to represent our society,” Casco said, “and to show also that we can make a difference.”

British TV becomes new series fad Jordan Achs Copy Editor British shows bring what American shows lack. There has been quite the British invasion on American television this year: “Doctor Who” just celebrated its 50th anniversary with the unveiling of the new Doctor, the long anticipated third season premiere of “Sherlock” was Jan. 19, and the period-piece favorite “Downton Abbey” has had strong fourth season ratings this winter. “They’re different from what our TV is putting out,” said Ashton Hickey, a senior in psychology and minoring in Spanish and cinema studies. “We put out a lot of procedurals, a lot of predictable TV shows, a lot of sitcoms and all of the BBC shows are better written, have better cinematography, and better acting. ... At this point these shows are just a better quality than the American shows of today.” The critics agree, with the critic ratings on Rotten Tomatoes giving “Doctor Who” 90 percent for almost every season, “Sherlock” getting 100 percent on its first two seasons, and “Downton Abbey” with above 75 percent on all but its current season. Mark Harmon, a professor of journalism and electronic media, said he looks to the production of the show as the reason for its success. “These programs are successful because they value and do not underestimate the audience,” Harmon said. “Each program has high production values and intelligent scripts. One can tell that each episode is created with care.” The viewers definitely agree, with ratings numbers

to prove it. According to Hollywood Reporter, the season premiere of “Sherlock” had 4 million viewers – a 25 percent increase – despite the show’s two-year hiatus. “Doctor Who” has just began filming its new season, but the previous season’s finale – aired in the U.S. and U.K. simultaneously – drew 2.5 million viewers. Encores of that finale also brought in 3.6 million viewers, making it a record for BBC America. “Downton Abbey” also had a record breaking season premiere for PBS with 10.2 million viewers. Fans are a key component to the success and increased viewer numbers of these shows. “Fandoms,” or large groups of super fans, allow for the universes within the show to expand to new lengths. Many fans write fan fiction, go to places like Comic Con to do meet-ups, and share theories and developments about the show. This is crucial for shows like “Sherlock” which typically have very long hiatuses in between seasons.

“Websites, Twitter and related digital technology make it easy for fans to find each other – sharing ideas, reaction and enthusiasm,” Harmon said. “These fan groups may be influencing the culture by broadening our perspective to include more history, more international ideas and more whimsy.” Between the fandoms and the ratings, one has to wonder if the big wigs in Hollywood have taken notice. “I haven’t seen anything yet on (American) TV that has directly mimicked or drawn from these British TV shows,” Hickey said, “but they’re not going to be able to ignore the viewing numbers, especially after this year of TV with ‘Doctor Who,’ ‘Downton’ and ‘Sherlock.’” The impact of these shows on American culture would be gradual but is definitely something to watch out for as Hollywood continues to look for the next big thing. “Sherlock” airs on PBS on Sundays at 9:58 p.m. right after “Downton Abbey.” Both are part of PBS’ Masterpiece collection.

There’s more to MLK than what’s remembered Fifty Shades of Wade by

Wade Scofield On Monday, we received a day off from school for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which celebrates the birthday of American history’s most iconic civil rights leader. King’s message of racial equality and acceptance bears special meaning for me. I attended an elementary school in southeast Memphis filled evenly of black and white students. I remember taking a field trip to the National Civil Rights Museum every year at the Lorraine Motel, standing where King stood when he was assassinated on April 4, 1968. I saw where sanitation workers were striking, beckoning King to Memphis and advocating for equality. And because of King’s assassination, race relations in my home city have been beautifully out in the open. We can’t afford to cover it up, after all. It is undeniable that King represents a beacon of radical love, nonviolence, acceptance and social peace. Who could read his “Letter From a Birmingham Jail” or watch footage of the famous 1963 “I Have a Dream” speech (“… judged by the content of their character”) and not be moved by this promise of basic humanity? Yet, there is more to King’s legacy than a desire for society to judge people by their skin tones. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, King was not only attempting to publicize a doctrine of racial tolerance and acceptance but also one that was strongly anti-poverty and anti-war. It occurred to me on Monday that virtually every notion of these vital components of King’s message are commonly overlooked or rendered unimportant. When have you read King’s 1967 sermon on the Vietnam War? Shortly before his death, King, like many growing tired of the death and deceit of Vietnam, offered a willingness to move away from machines and toward people, to beat guns into plowshares, to not study war anymore. (Please, read this sermon if you haven’t. It’s heartbreaking.) When have you heard of a book King published that same year advocating for a guaranteed income? When have you this from a sermon in 1956: “God never intended for one group of people to live in superfluous inordinate wealth, while others live in abject deadening poverty.” Or from a speech in 1965: “Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children.” When did we talk about any of this in elementary school? The reason we neglect one of the core messages of perhaps America’s bravest and most celebrated historical icons is twofold. First, we want King’s image to be neat and packaged, stripping him of his humanity and – compare this to the image of Malcolm X – one where respect and love for fellow man won out. Because that part of his dream did win out. And we’re sure proud of ourselves that we think this way now. Second, we are ashamed to confront those aspects of King’s dream that didn’t win out: his hope in a better distribution of wealth for all of God’s children, for a right to sanitation and somewhere to live. And surely people don’t want to hear that King called America the “greatest purveyor of violence in the world.” We want to think of King only in immortalized photographs, places where we can contain his “controversial” stances because, simply, we don’t like them. We want to remember King as someone who helped us get where we are now, not someone who would criticize us for not getting to where we should be. Sometimes people remark that thanks to the work of King and others, we live in a post-racial society. But a post-racial approach to our current condition brushes aside history, how America reached such grave economic and structural inequality in the first place. What we should really be shooting for is a post-racist society, one where African-Americans, Hispanics, other minorities and even poor whites have a fighting chance of achieving equality with the white upper-middle class, don’t have exorbitant unemployment rates, aren’t racially profiled, and don’t compose basically the entire prison population. How far have we really come? I know what King would say about this. He’d say, “The rich nations must use their vast resources of wealth to develop the underdeveloped, school the unschooled, and feed the unfed.” But you probably didn’t hear anyone talking about that on Monday. Wade Scofield is a senior in religious studies and Latin. He can be reached at wade@utk.edu.

Updated views on race merit changes to ‘of color’ language Crossing Cues by

Marianela D’Aprile A few months ago, as I completed a survey for my workplace, I came across the question: “Do you consider yourself a person of color?” My gut reacted, surprisingly, with confusion. Literally, “of color” means “colored,” a term which the United States, undeniable champion of political correctness, shied away from using to describe African-Americans because it was offensive – it implied difference and inferiority. So, it chose instead to use a synonym. The phrase “of color” as we know it today was first used by Martin Luther King Jr. in his historic “I Have A Dream” speech – a fact which might seem to give the term a sort of iconic legitimacy. But let’s not forget that in 1963 arguments about race still very much centered on skin color and considered little else; terms like “ethnicity” and “heritage” were not part of the general discourse like they are today. The reasons for using the phrase “of color” are generally well-meaning and stem from political correctness, but if we are truly moving toward a country that embraces the many cultures of its citizenry, we need to call things by their true name.

Assembly passed a bill to remove the word “race” from the French penal code. So, let’s use words that help us understand the difference between people so that we may better embrace it. The phrase “of color” creates the illusion of a cohesive sameness in values and culture between all non-Caucasian populations which simply does not exist. If understanding and addressing the differences between African-Americans, AsianAmericans, Caucasians, Hispanics, Latinos, Middle Easterners, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, means using that many words, then let’s do it. Let’s pick the right, most accurate words, and quit relying on dated phrases because they were, 30 years ago, thought to be “politically correct.” Saying someone is “of color” is absolutely no different than saying they are “colored” or “non-white.” It just happens to sound nicer. Ultimately, the words we use to describe things end up shaping our view of them. If we keep expressing race, ethnicity and culture through the language of “whites-andeveryone-else,” we stifle our ability to understand and perceive nuances of difference (and of sameness) between ourselves and others around us.

Recovery, muscle cycling can maximize your gym experience Working Out Happiness by

Andrew Fleming Muscles do not grow during your actual workout period. You don’t get stronger while you lift a heavy thing over your head. The process of repetitively striking the ground with your feet does little to make your muscles more acclimated to repetitively striking the ground with your feet again. In fact, working out tears down your muscle – literally. Exercise causes what’s known as microtrauma in your muscles. This is what gives you the DOMS, or Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. The DOMS are what make it tough to drive after leg day, or bend over to pull your socks up after a day of shredding abs. The DOMS are your body’s way of letting you know that your muscles are all torn up. What makes you stronger is recovery. This is a lesson that every aspiring athlete should learn early on in the body-sculpting process. Working out without recovery not only hurts your gains, it hurts your body. Too little recovery can lead to stress-related injuries and all kinds of nasty muscle tears. Pain is not a bad thing. Pain is your body’s adaptation that lets you know there’s damage done.

So, seeing as your body’s sense of pain is the culmination of eons of Darwin-tested chemical signaling, it’s time you start listening to it. Many young fools venture into the gym in hopes of large arms. They spurn leg day like a text from their mother telling them their bank account is overdrawn. They do bicep curls until they can’t think straight and head home to call it a night. The next day, they are forlorn to find that alas, they can bicep-curl no more. What happened to all of the work they did the day before? They tore down the house, but didn’t rebuild it properly. They are forced to wait until their arms stop throbbing to once again pay homage to the dumbbells. A way to avoid these dead days is to practice what’s known as muscle cycling. Muscle cycling is essentially rotating through different muscle groups throughout the week. Depending on your diet, muscle rotations can happen differently. Let’s look at three common ones. Some gym-goers enjoy a ONE A DAY type muscle cycle. This usually goes something like Day 1 – Legs; Day 2 – Back; Day 3 – Chest; Day 4 – Shoulders; Day 5 – Biceps; Day 6 – Triceps; Day 7 – Rest. People cite schedules like these for shorter, daily workouts, as well as the ability to focus on one muscle group at a time. Other lifters tend toward a TWO A DAY AUXILIARY muscle cycle. This allows for extension days (push muscles), flexion days

(pull muscles) and the pairing of legs and shoulders, which many enjoy. A schedule of this sort could look like: Day 1 – Back and Biceps (pull muscles); Day 2 – Chest and Triceps (push muscles); Day 3 – Legs and Shoulders; Day 4 – Back and Biceps (pull muscles); Day 5 – Chest and Triceps (push muscles); Day 6 – Legs and Shoulders; Day 7 – Rest. This allows for the pairing of similarly used muscle groups, as well as more frequent workouts for each group. The third cycle I’ve encountered is a PUSH-PULL TWO A DAY muscle cycle. This pairs antagonistic muscle groups rather that complimentary, leading to a see-saw type workout. This could look like Day 1 – Chest and Back (Push and Pull); Day 2 – Triceps and Biceps (Push and Pull); Day 3 – Legs and Shoulders; Day 4 – Chest and Back (Push and Pull); Day 5 – Triceps and Biceps (Push and Pull); Day 6 – Legs and Shoulders; Day 7 – Rest. In the end, it’s all about what feels right. The important thing to remember is to fuel your recoveries properly with significant amounts of protein. Recovery is incredibly important to gaining strength, speed, tone or whatever else you’re looking for out of your workout, as well as preventing injury. Respect the DOMS to make gains.

EDITORIAL

Some insist that the phrase “of color” avoids the negative connotations of words like “minorities” and “non-white,” and while it is true that “of color” defines people by what they are rather than what they are not, it is also true that it lumps together disparate groups by one common factor: that they are not Caucasian. This kind of implication – that there are “whites” and then everyone else – points to a conception of race whose baseline is this socalled whiteness and whose sole determiner of race is skin color. “Of color” suggests that the standard, and therefore the quality we should all be striving for, is Caucasian in culture, heritage and, of course, skin color. Anything – and anyone – else is a deviation, an undesirable anomaly. There is no doubt that we need descriptors to better analyze and understand the society in which we live. America’s cultural diversity is one of its most distinguishing traits; after all, this is still a country borne of immigration that continues to open its doors to millions of people a year. As of 2011, more than 40 million people living in the United States were foreign-born. If we are to better understand them, their experience and their needs, we absolutely need words — the right words. We can’t pretend difference doesn’t exist, as French president François Hollande did when he claimed that “there is no room in the Republic for race” after France’s National

‘Snow Day’ fundraiser to feature bands, beards Jenna Butz Staff Writer CAC Beardsley Community Farm will present its sixth annual “Snow Day� fundraiser Friday at 7 p.m. at Barley’s with music, soup, silent auction and a beard contest. Started in January 2009, Ben Epperson, former farm manager, decided on the name “Snow Day� because of its connotation with staying warm and cozy and having a free, fun day. Since then, this fundraiser has come to raise approximately 15 percent of the farm’s annual operating budget, with more than 200 involved. “As a non-profit organization, it’s imperative to fundraise so that we can continue serving the community,� Khann Chov, the farm’s manager said. “Our vision was to bring the community together for a fun event during the winter months when we aren’t farming. Music and food were obvious choices.� In the search for music, coordinators try to create a diverse line-up of popular, local musicians with loyal followings. This year’s bands are Marina Orchestra, Hudson K, Jamie Cook and Blue South, Greg Horne, Sarah Morgan, Four Leaf

Peat and Jodie Manross. While not completely familiar with every band that will be playing, Justin Powers, guitarist and vocalist of Marina Orchestra, said he is excited for the different sounds that will be at the event. “Hudson K is a staple in Knoxville; Christina Horn constantly amazes me with her ‘outside-of-the-box’ approach to music,� Powers said. “Jamie Cook may be Knoxville’s greatest songwriter ever. I have a soft spot for traditional Irish tunes and Four Leaf Peat definitely delivers on that.� Marina Orchestra played the show last year despite inclement weather and is excited to play again, just hopefully in better conditions. “I remember it was the infamous night of freezing rain and everyone expected it to be cancelled,� Powers said. “It was quite stressful for the event coordinators I’m sure, but they ultimately decided to follow through and a good amount of people showed up. “Hopefully this year we’ve already had our share of brutality from the weather and everyone can make it out safely.� While held at Barley’s, other restaurants, chefs

LAZARUS continued from Page 1 Jed Diamond, head of acting in the theatre department, has been involved in a script workshop this week with Lazarus and numerous theatre students. “He has a style that combines great humor with depth of human stories in rich socio-political contexts,� Diamond said. “The play illuminates the interplay of our ideologies and our drives, our conscious ideas and

and caterers compete in the “Soup Offâ€? that feeds participants. This year’s competitors include Sunspot, Good Golly Tamale, Tupelo Honey CafĂŠ, Gourmet’s Market and The Bistro. “We got restaurants involved and thought that soup would be a great choice to keep people warm in January,â€? Chov said, “not to mention it could feed a lot of people.â€? Besides music and soup, there is also a silent auction with donations from nearly 100 local businesses and a Beard Pageant with two categories: homegrown and homemade. Compete in homegrown if you’re a man with a manly beard or homemade if you’re feeling crafty and make your own out of anything you have lying around. CAC Beardsley Community Farm has held “Snow Dayâ€? at Barley’s every year because of its central location, its massive square footage and their continued support, Chov said. “Barley’s embraced an event that supported the community in a big way,â€? Chov added. The goal of the farm is to provide access to fresh produce to those in need and use the revenue from this event to continue reaching

our unconscious actions, our wishes and our realties, and our vision and blindness. It does so in a way that is both very funny and moving.� Both Diamond and Lazarus see this opportunity as a perfect opening for the upcoming Sex Week on campus, and they urge students to attend. “It’s a great story, a fun time and something that will reflect upon their own lives in very thought provoking ways,� Diamond said. Lazarus said he believes students should attend to see the wonderful actors, and for the possibility of a fun date night due to its romantic come-

that goal. Through various outreach programs, Chov said the farm is a community opportunity to help each other by donating produce to food pantries, homeless and women’s shelters, and refugee families with the help of more than 1,000 volunteers a year. “CAC Beardsley Community Farm promotes food security and sustainable urban agriculture through practice, education and community outreach,� Chov said. “Our efforts include a large urban demonstration garden that generates produce donations for those in need, a community garden and education programs through workshops, field trips and classroom teaching in Knox County Schools.� After welcoming more than 800 patrons to last year’s event, Chov said the workers hope to meet last year’s total again. She was also quick to note one important element that keeps visitors coming back each year. “The event is successful because it is fun,� Chov said. “The soups are delicious, there are wonderful silent auction items and the Beard Pageant with a homemade and homegrown category is a hoot. The music is always great too.�

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Jones cashes in ‘amazing’ performance against Gators Peter Murray Contributor A pleasant surprise for Tennessee head coach Holly Warlick’s squad Thursday night at Thompson-Boling Arena against Florida was the impressive play of Jasmine Jones in the second half. As Florida trimmed the Lady Vol lead down to 10, Jones hit two clutch 3-pointers to swing the momentum back to Tennessee – eventually ending in an 89-69 Lady Vol win. Jones finished the night with 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting to go along with six rebounds and two assists. “Jasmine was amazing

today,” Bashaara Graves said. “We need that type of play from Jasmine. If she stays consistent for us she can do that every game. “We believe in her, and she is going to keep getting better.” Massengale Injured Starting point guard Ariel Massengale’s night came to an abrupt end near the closing of the first half. While competing for a loose ball, Massengale was inadvertently hit in the head and did not return to the game. “My first thought was it was a concussion,” head coach Holly Warlick said. “But at this point, I don’t think it is. We’re going to evaluate her. She got

hit in the head pretty hard.” With the injury, Massengale’s consecutive start streak could be at risk. The Bolingbrook, Ill., native has started 42 consecutive games for the Lady Vols and is averaging 31.5 minutes per contest this season. Gallant Guard Play In the absence of Massengale, backup guards Andraya Carter and Jordan Reynolds saw an increase in playing time. After the game, Warlick lauded her young players for their effort in a sub role. “Jordan and Andraya had to carry that load,” Warlick said. “I think we prepared them for it, and I think they did an

exceptional job.” Carter turned in a solid night, posting 14 points, two steals and a career-high eight assists in 30 minutes. Reynolds also chipped in with four points, two rebounds and three steals in 22 minutes. “With Ariel going out we knew we had to come closer as a team and have tight huddles and stay together,” Carter said. “That’s what we did, and it was really exciting getting such a big win on Pat’s big night.” UTDAILYBEACON.COM SPORTS: Read the full story online

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Vols aiming to go 4-0 versus Florida in Martin era The firing of Bruce Pearl is seen by many fans as the downfall of Tennessee basketball, but it’s just what the Vols needed to start dominating a key rival. Third-year head coach Cuonzo Martin is a perfect 3-0 all-time against Florida, all of which came against ranked Gators teams. Pearl went 0-3 against Billy Donovan in his last year alone and lost four of his last five in the series. Martin’s fourth win in as many games against the Gators may be his toughest yet, as the Vols travel to Gainesville, Fla., to face No. 6-ranked Florida for a 4 p.m. Saturday tipoff. Donovan’s crew is solely atop the SEC with a perfect 4-0 record, winning nine straight, including wins over Kansas and Memphis. If it weren’t for a buzzer beater from Connecticut on Dec. 2, the Gators would be riding a 14-game win streak into Saturday’s contest. Many Gator players are battling through injury problems. Leading scorer Casey Prather (knee) returned from a two-game absence to score 21 in Florida’s 68-61 win over Auburn, while starters Patric Young (knee) and Scottie Wilbekin

If • The Tennessee-Florida the Vols had simply held on against Texas matchup will air on ESPN. A&M, they could tie themselves atop the conference with a win over Florida.

GAME NOTES

Steven Cook Copy Editor

RECAP continued from Page 1 After appearing timid the past few games while dealing with calf and back injuries, the former SEC Freshman of the Year established her presence early on. With 14:23 left to play in the first half the Clarksville, Tenn., native battled through her defender and a foul to hit a driving layup off a pass from Cierra Burdick. “My teammates got me the ball and I got some easy points,” Graves said. “I have to keep being consistent and keep playing my game.” She then went on to convert the 3-point play opportunity, and along with redshirt freshman guard Andraya Carter, the two combined for 15 of their team’s first 18 points to lead by a dozen. “(Graves) played with a lot of confidence and that’s what we needed from her,” UT secondyear head coach Holly Warlick said. “She didn’t back down and she battled. That’s the Bashaara that played for us last year and it was good to see her back.” At all costs, the Lady Vols seemed determined to avoid a second half collapse like the one the squad suffered Monday night against No. 2 Notre Dame – a game they lost by 16, but led by

as many as 12 in the first half. The Gators (13-6, 3-3 SEC) showed a glimpse of making a comeback and cut the deficit to eight points after Antoinette Bannister’s layup capped a 14-3 run with 12:21 left to play. With the team’s third leading scorer out, sophomore forward Jasmine Jones stepped up and scored six straight points to give the Lady Vols a comfortable 67-53 lead with 7:53 left from claiming their fourth SEC win of the season. Jones scored 13 points to match her season-high. “They made that run and then Jasmine Jones hit some big shots for us,” Warlick said. “When they cut it we stepped up and made plays.” Simmons – one of five Lady Vols to score in double figures – hit her fifth 3-pointer and third of the second half with 7:48 left to play. She was then promptly pulled with five minutes left and her team up by 16. The next matchup for the Lady Vols will be this Sunday on the road against No. 17 Texas A&M, who is currently undefeated in conference play. “Any win for us right now is huge,” Warlick said. “It’s a team builder and it’s a confidence builder. “Tonight we got back on track.”
