Knoshville brings New York to Knoxville Mary Beth Mccauley Contributor
This Sunday, citizens can try old-fashioned “overstuffed” deli sandwiches of New York fame. The Knoxville Jewish Alliance will be hosting their very first kosher deli event, “Deli on the Roof,” which will provide kosher corned beef, pastrami, roasted turkey and salami straight from New York City. “Authentic, kosher deli is an icon in larger metros, but can be hard to find in smaller cities,” Judith Rosenberg, the vice president of public relations for the Knoxville Jewish Alliance, said. “Thanks to our partnership with Chabad of Knoxville, we can bring it here for one day.” To go along with the huge selection of deli meats, there will also be kosher pickles, cole slaw, sides and beverages. Even though this is specifically a deli event, there are still plenty of options for those who do not eat meat. Vegetarians can enjoy Marilyn Burnett’s delicious vegetarian “chopped liver.”
Deli on the Roof is a continuation of Knoshville, a food event featured within the East Tennessee Jewish Food Festival that took place last May. All the Jewish communities and organizations in Knoxville participated, making the festival a huge hit. The first Knoshville event focused solely on dairy products and vegetarian options: Israeli salads, parve matzo ball soup, knishes, latkes and challah were among the dishes provided. Even though the first event was successful, it left many attendees asking, “Where’s the meat?” “In Jewish dietary law, you don’t generally mix milk products with meat products, so the first event we did back in the Spring was all dairy and vegetarian,” said Deborah Oleshansky, the executive director of the Knoxville Jewish Alliance. “This is the meat event that balances out the dairy event. All meat, all the time.” Due to the festival’s huge success the first time around, Knoshville is “back by popular demand.” Coincidentally, Knoxville Jewish Alliance chose a great weekend to hold Deli on the Roof. “We are having a Jewish family dinner Friday
night on campus for UT’s Fall Family Weekend, so we hope that those families are planning to stay through the weekend and attend the event here on Sunday. Hopefully we will have a great turnout of UT students,” Oleshansky said. In addition to all the delicious, kosher food provided, Deli on the Roof will also feature an Arts and Crafts Fair hosted by the Heska Amuna Sisterhood women’s group. The fair will include 20+ vendors and will take place upstairs at the Arnstein Jewish Community Center. Thanks to Chabad of Knoxville and the Knoxville Jewish Alliance, Knoshville is back in action and ready to provide the community with kosher foods. The chance to have real kosher deli meat straight from New York City, plus an array of scrumptious side items, is a chance most won’t want to pass up. Deli on the Roof will take place this Sunday, Sept. 18 from 12-3 p.m. at the Arnstein Jewish Community Center, which is located at 6800 Deane Hill Drive. The price range is $10-$20. For more information, you can visit www.jewishknoxville.org.
Orchestra celebrates the past, the new of classical music Anu Kumar
Staff Writer In its 72nd season, the Oak Ridge Symphony Orchestra (ORSO) prides itself in playing a variety of classical music that anyone can enjoy. They also feature pieces from native Tennessee composers. The ORSO will be giving a performance on Sept. 24 at the Oak Ridge High School Auditorium, conducted and directed by Maestro Dan Allcott, who is starting his seventh season with this opening concert. The theme of the upcoming concert is called “Pride of Place,” which will feature a world premier piece of “∏ to the Sky: Tribute to Discovery” written by Knoxville composer Mark Harrell, “Ellis Island: The Dream of America,” a narrative piece written by Peter Boyer and “Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage,” written by Felix Mendelssohn. Harrell is a Knoxville composer and this is a world premier for him. The work was written specifically for the Oak Ridge Symphony and commissioned by the JAZ fund for community programs. The piece is a celebration of the postWorld War II Oak Ridge scientists and their numerous accomplishments. Boyer’s narrative piece describes the stories of six Ellis Island immigrants. Ellis Island, a national monument run by the United States Parks Service, celebrates its 100th anniversary this year. Representatives from the Parks Service will be at the concert and information
Dan Alcott conducts the Oak Ridge Symphony Orchestra. • Courtesy of the Oak Ridge Symphony Orchestra about the USPS anniversary and parks will be on display in the audience — as well as personal displays about people’s immigrant family stories. Each piece conveys a certain set of emotions for when individuals would set foot (symbolically or literally) in these places. “We try and do it all,” Conductor Dan Allcott said. “We play classical music from all eras. We feel like we’re responsible to play it all.” The group itself is a fair size — with approximately 65 members this season. There is typically a core group of players that come and stay for a little while and then there are the rotating members that can appear for a few performances in a season.
ORSO prides itself on incorporating pieces from current, living composers as well as historical ones. “Our art is not a museum of pieces from a long time ago,” Allcott said. Even though the Orchestra relies heavily on the performers, they still collaborate with other groups and singers. “We’re very community oriented,” Allcott said, “but we play on a professional level.” The “Pride of Place” concert is set to be held on Sept. 24 at 7:30 p.m., at the Oak Ridge High School Performing Arts Center. The Oak Ridge High School String quartet will perform before the ORSO concert and attendees are welcome to come and meet the performers.

Week brings together local entrepreneurs, students Priya Narapareddy Contributor
Knoxville’s fourth annual Startup Day will be expanding into a week of innovation for local entrepreneurs, including UT students, this month during Innov865 Week. Innov865 Week events will be held in the area from Sept. 19 through Sept. 23. Specifically, the Startup Day event will be held on Sept. 22 at The Bijou Theatre in downtown Knoxville. It will feature a pitch competition with six Knoxvillearea startups for a $5,000 cash prize. The Traction Award will also be presented to the former Startup Day competitor who has made the most progress. Startup Day is free and open to the public. Innov865 Week begins with the Kauffman Foundation Mayor’s Summit on Entrepreneurship. Events throughout the week include educational sessions such as “Electronic Solutions for Governing the Future” and “Office Hours with Paul Singh.” Singh, a nationally recognized entrepreneur and investor, will have sessions throughout the week.
Lynn Youngs is the executive director of UT’s Anderson Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Youngs said the Anderson Center is a founding partner in the Innov865 Alliance, along with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Pershing Yoakley & Associates, Launch Tennessee, the Knoxville Entrepreneur Center and the University of Tennessee Research Foundation. Youngs said the pitch competition is exciting and has given students the opportunity to practice pitching their ideas to investors. He described the competition as “high pressure, high energy and high reward.” The atmosphere for competing teams can be described as “high pressure” because competitors are given only a few minutes to present their pitches to the judges, who are investors. “(The investors) have the capability to write the check themselves,” Youngs said. Last November, UT MBA student Bryan Crosby and his team won first place in the pitch competition. Crosby, who graduated in December 2015, received a $5,000 cash prize to benefit

his startup. Crosby said his business, FunLPro, was founded in March of 2013. His exposure to Innov865 through UT’s MBA program has provided him and his two partners with plenty of resources. “It gave us great confidence that we are doing the right thing,” Crosby said. Crosby has also been nominated for the 2016 Traction Award, which will be
given to the pitch competition alumni who has made the most progress. Crosby is looking forward to seeing the new companies this year at Innov865 Week and the opportunities they will have. Eva Mutunga will be participating in this year’s startup competition. Mutunga is a doctoral student at the Bredesen Center for Interdisciplinary Research and Graduate Education and will be representing Tech Smarrt. Akinolz Oyedele, a doctoral student, Dr. David Keffer and Dr. Orlando Rios are also on Muntunga’s team. Tech Smarrt features software for visualizing complex materials in science engineering and can show atomic structures. The software has worked previously to show the structure of lignin, a plant-based product that is used to produce biofuel. Mutunga said she looks forward to connecting with investors and mentors through Innov865 as well as representing Tech Smarrt. “We hope to open people up to the potential in materials science,” she said. Participants looking to be involved in Innov865 week must register online at Innov865.com

‘Buttchugging’ fraternity returns to UT Isabella King
Contributor Pi Kappa Alpha, or Pike, is returning to the University of Tennessee, leaving wine enemas behind for a clean slate. It will return to UT next semester after four years. The organization closed on Sept. 12, 2012, after members used wine enemas during a party and Alexander Price Broughton was hospitalized with a blood alcohol level of .45. Levels between .35 and .40 are considered deadly. To close a student organization, the Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards must first issue a violation. “Then the appropriate sanction is provided based on the violation,” Associate Vice Chancellor and Dean of Students Melissa Shivers said. “The national organization can play a really big part … They can then make a decision to close the chapter over a certain period of time, in conjunction or in collaboration with the university.” After the incident, UT formed a Greek Life Task Force to address problems in Greek life. Their final report in 2013 concluded that there was a need for clear expectations concerning alcohol use and hazing in Greek organizations and recommended they employ live-in, adult house directors. “The presence of Pike on campus again is shocking,” Christian Cohen, a member of Beta Theta Pi, said. “I personally don’t think

After being kicked off campus, Pike lost their house to BYX but will be able to take it back next fall. Laura Altawil • The Daily Beacon they should’ve come back … Yes, people make mistakes, but in an instance where people’s lives are in danger, a lot of people would prefer not to do that (engage in Greek life or pledge Pi Kappa Alpha).” Pi Kappa Alpha, after closing their chapter, must actively seek membership at UT again. “The invitation to come to a university is somewhat collaborative,” Kelly Phillips, interim director of Sorority and Fraternity Life at UT, said. “Collaborative with the university, collaborative with the national organization and the individual council that that particular organization is a part of, and that happens on a national level as well as a local level.” The first step in reorganizing a chapter is to submit a letter from the Inter/National President or Executive Director of the organization that describes how the UT chapter will operate, who will staff it, commitments of support, lists of existing chapters at other colleges or universities and a description of the state of the last five chapters established. Then the organization must submit a mission statement, regarding how their mission, values, programming, contribution to the university and community, etc. will assist the University of Tennessee on its journey to the Top 25. The organization must then submit a signed policy congruence form as well as the contact information of the advisor, and the colonization coordinator. They must also provide information about the advisory board and its
structure and function, a timeline for chartering, copies of their policies and their interest group roster and, if they previously occupied a house, a proposed timeline for when they will be back into their prior residence. “We do believe that once organizations have served the particular violation, and then they have also found a way to meet the expectations of the university, when they are ready to come back, and we as the university certainly believe they are still certainly an important function and aspect of our community; we work hard to make sure that those chapters feel like this is a good place for them,” Shivers said. Pi Kappa Alpha has met all these criteria, and is now in the process of planning their return to campus. “They are here on campus for the next couple of months, recruiting new members,” Shivers said. “The hope is to have a functioning chapter in the spring, but they will not move into the fraternity house (until) the following academic year.” a Pike’s fraternity house, located on 1820 Fraternity Park Drive, is occupied by Beta Upsilon Chi, a Christian fraternity. They have been renting out the Pike house since it was established. “One of the things that has impressed me about this return is just the very well thought out process of not getting ahead of themselves, and making sure that the men that are a part of this chapter understand what it means for all of these ideals of their fraternity,” Phillips said.

Current UT swimmer competes in Rio Olympics Taylor Crombie Columnist
Before the 2012 London Olympics, Kira Toussaint, Tennessee swimmer and senior in kinesiology, asked her mother to make a deal. It is common now for Olympians to get the Olympic rings tattooed after they compete in the games. If Toussaint made the 2016 Olympic Swim Team, she wanted her mother, Dutch gold medalist Jolanda de Rover, to get the tattoo with her. Toussaint qualified for the Netherlands’ team at the Eindhoven Swim Cup on April 9. After returning home from Rio, she and her mother got their tattoos. “I was really surprised,” Toussaint said, admitting she did not think her mother would go through with it. “But I thought it was really cool that she did it.” Toussaint competed in the women’s 100meter backstroke, the same event that her mother won a bronze medal in at the 1984
Los Angeles Olympics. She finished 18th in the first round with a time of 1:07.17. She failed to qualify for the semifinals, but beat her mother’s bronze medal-winning time of 1:02.91 by over two seconds. She said having an Olympian for a mother did not add pressure, but it was a cool shared experience for the two of them. It was also helpful for Toussaint to have someone who had been to the games before to guide her through it. “The Olympics are such a huge event that you can really get lost in all the things that are going on,” Toussaint said. “Her advice was to take it all in … and then focus.” Toussaint made UT history by becoming the first female swimmer to compete while still a student and active member of the team. While she did not bring a medal home from Rio, Toussaint said she learned some valuable lessons at the games that she plans on applying to the coming season. “In Rio, I was a little too nervous for my race, and what I took away most is if I stay relaxed and enjoy everything that’s going on I swim the

fastest,” she said. She transferred to Tennessee from Florida Gulf Coast University in 2015 and was a huge part of the Vols’ success at the SEC meet earlier this year. She helped the Vols take home three gold medals in that meet. “She was very open-minded and embraced a lot of new things that were thrown at her,” head coach Matt Kredich said of her adjustment to the program. “She’s a very hard worker, she’s humble and very giving to her teammates, and she’s technically very astute and proficient. Because she’s one of our fastest swimmers and models those behaviors, she has the ability to inspire people.” In the short amount of time she has been a part of the program, she has become a leader on the team and is well respected by her teammates. Kredich considers finding out that Toussaint qualified for the Olympics one of the biggest highlights of last year for the team. “They would not have felt that way if they were not connected to her as a teammate,” Kredich said.

Vols looking for first big win, Missouri game provides oppourtunity Norris Eppes
Contributor A third of the way through the season and Tennessee soccer has lost all games played on Thursdays or Fridays. Strangely enough, the Vols have won every single game played on a Sunday. For a team that has both suffered difficult losses and also won confidently at points this season, the Vols are hungry for a big win. They have the chance in tomorrow’s game against SEC opponents Missouri. Tennessee’s 4-4-0 record does not paint an accurate portrait of this Vols team that has recently looked dangerous on attack and has been capable of controlling games — when they take control early. “We’ve had some tough losses, some good wins,” head coach Brian Pensky said. “But also some losses where we’ve played much better than the score and the results show. Our team needs a good win. Sometimes you need a big win to get true belief. That’s what I’m looking for right now.” In each game that Tennessee has lost, they’ve been the team to concede the first goal. Conversely, each time the Vols have won, it’s been when they’ve been the first team to find the back of the net.
“We’ve got to come out and be the aggressor,” Pensky said. “Some of that is a tactical thing; but some of that is also a belief. It’s a mentality.” For midfielder Riley O’Keefe, the trick to finding that mentality is in learning “just how to bounce back from those tough games, (how to) keep our heads up, and get that momentum back.” Thursday night’s game against Missouri will be televised on the SEC Network. For the Vols, it is the first in a string of four games against conference opponents. Missouri, who are 5-2-0 on the season, visit Knoxville having just thrashed Ole Miss 5-0. This Missouri team is one that likes to get the ball forward and like to get it forward quickly. A team with a number of talented forwards and wingers, Coach Pensky believes that the Vols need to be dominant in their high pressing in order to deny Missouri the opportunity to play long balls forward. “Missouri is a really good team,” O’Keefe said. “They’re really strong, really physical. We’re just looking to do what we do best and keep the ball in possession, our possession — and score some goals.” Pensky mentioned last year’s match against Missouri, when the Vols gave up a goal in the sixth minute, then struggled to see themselves back into the game. “If we can come out, not be passive, and have the confidence and courage that we can go at
