New mouthguard can possibly detect concussions A company called Biometrics has developed a mouthguard for athletes that is intended to sense when a player gets a concussion. It can detect where the player was hit and how hard they were hit, and then it sends the information instantly to a computer to record and possibly to alert if the damage is critical. It’s primary users will be football players, and the University of Washington, along with 60 other schools, have already distributed them to players in different positions to see the results. They hope the experiment will result in a positive change in the health of athletes.

Record breaking Emmy night for Game of Thrones The television series, “Game of Thrones,” won big during the Emmy Awards on Sunday, Sept. 18. They took home the award for Best Drama series, along with awards for Outstanding Writing for the episode “Battle of the Bastards” and Outstanding Directing for the same episode. With these three awards, the show has outstripped the record number of Emmy’s held by the show “Frasier.” They now have a total of 38 Emmy’s, compared to the 37 won by “Fraiser.” Other notable wins from the night include Lead Actress in a drama series, Tatiana Maslany, and Lead Actor in a drama series, Rami Malek.

First female Librarian of Congress sworn in Carla Hayden was sworn in earlier this week as the next United States Librarian of Congress. She will be the first female and the first AfricanAmerican to be instated to this position. In addition, she will also be the first term-limited Librarian; she will serve a 10 year term. This action was decided by a bill which became law on Nov. 5 of last year. The new law removed the lifetime tenure of the position, which had been in practice since 1802. Rapid changes in modern-day technology were cited as the main reason for the decision to create a term limit for this federal position.

New student organization unites science and politics Shelby Whitehead Contributor

The Forum on Science, Ethics and Policy recently established its place on campus. The main focus of FOSEP is to encourage a conversation about science and how it effects and is affected by politics. FOSEP came to UT in September of 2015. It is based on similar programs at universities in Boulder, Colorado and Seattle, Washington. “Science and technology are playing an increasingly important role in society, and with that has come a lot of challenges at the intersection of science and policy,” Marie Kirkegaard, FOSEP’S vice president, said. The program tries to bridge the communication gap between policy and science by holding events, which are generally held once a month and bring in speakers from professional fields. FOSEP recently hosted former state representative Gloria Johnson to speak on how policy works in the state. A possible upcoming event is a debate about policy between two opposing ethical sides. Ethics play a vital role in the creation and support of scientific experiments and the policies associated with it. The group establishes science as the

foundation of all conversation. They aim to have a bipartisan and factual discussion about issues in the scientific community and how these issues relate to society as a whole. Conversations range from topics on genetically engineered foods to climate change. While FOSEP is still in the early stages, members are searching for a main focal point and identity. “We’re working on what we want to focus on, what our identity is compared to the other programs around the country,” FOSEP president Victoria DiStefano said. As a new club, the main goal of FOSEP is recruitment of new members. Membership is currently mostly graduate students, but FOSEP hopes to gain undergraduate members to increase the sustainability of the club. “We’ve intended FOSEP to be a forum both for scientists but also for nonscientists,” Kirkegaard said. The program also seeks more diverse membership to provide opposing opinions throughout the group and to create a more effective conversation. The club is operating on campus and various local platforms now but wants to expand to the national level. “Being able to communicate to the people who actually make the policies is very important” DiStefano said. “I think nationally, it’s become recognized as a very important issue. How do we

• Courtesy of FOSEP at UT communicate our science to lawmakers? How do we interact with them to say what’s important?” Another function of FOSEP is to integrate nontraditional career paths. FOSEP is looking to send individuals from the science field into political careers in Washington, D.C. where they will learn how to develop legislation that involves scientific principles. Will Hartwig, founder and postdoctoral advisor of FOSEP at UT, suggests the club’s strong leadership will play a vital role in FOSEP and how engaged officers will contribute to success in the future. “Scientists just can’t remain on the sidelines,” Hartwig said.

Conference brings environmental dialogue Elizabeth Wood Contributor

The Appalachian Public Interest Environmental Law Conference will be returning on Oct. 21-23 for its seventh year as the University of Tennessee’s largest student organized academic conference. The conference will feature panelists speaking about environmental advocacy, environmental racism, climate change, pollution, recycling, waste reduction, nuclear energy and national forest protection from institutions like the Energy Justice Network, the Sierra Club, Appalachian Citizens’ Law and Vanderbilt Law. APIEL Conference Coordinator and UT College of Law student Kevin Morris aim to draw 300-500 participants to learn about and discuss problems facing the region and its inhabitants. “Appalachia is disproportionately affected, because there are a lot of poor people here and a lot of natural resources like natural gas and coal that get harvested,” Morris said. “So, you have a poor population who can’t necessarily stand up for themselves against corporations that have a lot of money. These corporations are here because there’s a lot of these natural resources, so together we need this kind of conference to help people stand up for themselves.” Morris said the conference will address environmental issues endemic to Appalachia and will include content that could empower the average person wanting to make legal change. “Here’s this law that you can use to go and sue someone down the street to prevent them from dumping into your stream. It can be as simple as the auto-mechanic down the street. It doesn’t have to be a giant corporation,” Morris said. Though unique in its Appalachian focus, APIEL is not the first of its kind. The conference began as a replication of the Public Interest Environmental Law Conference in Oregon, which is now in its

33rd year. After attending PIELC, a group of law students under the tutelage of UT College of Law Professor Dean Rivkin brought the idea back to UT. Former UT Law Professor Zygmunt Plater recalled Rivkin’s students returning from Oregon. “Half the people there weren’t lawyers. They were scientists, they were Indians, (and) they were archeologists. The people were involved in these cases from all over the world,” Plater said. “It was really kind of amazing. Under Dean Rivkin some of the students from UT went out there and came back and said there should be something like that for Appalachia. And that’s how it all got started. It’s cloned from PIELC.” Six conferences later, Rivkin said participants can expect a diverse array of panelists in discussions on topics such as how to collect air samples and test air quality as well as workshops. Chanse Hayes, a student at UT College of Law and Vice President of the Environmental Law Organization, emphasized the importance of the discussion that APIEL spurs. “When you get a lot of like-minded people together, there’s a lot of talking,” Haynes said. “We’re going to have a lot of other events like social events so we can just get everybody together, be friendly, talk about these issues and see if there’s any way to move forward in the future together.” Morris is most excited for the communication and collaboration that could be facilitated by the conference. “What I’m looking forward to most is bringing people together that want to get done with the topic, just listening or actually going up to the person and saying ‘How can I get involved in your project, what you’re doing is really cool, or how can I bring it back to my area?’” APIEL will be held at UT College of Law, Oct. 22-24. The conference is free to UT students and is $60 for the weekend, $35 daily for the general public.

The Daily Beacon • Tuesday, September 20, 2016

The first rule of paper club: a criticism of big education “We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires and movie gods, and rock stars, but we won’t. We’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off.” When I first saw Brad Pitt’s Fight Club as a college freshman, I did an odd thing: I immediately re-watched it. Beneath the violence, comedy and innuendo, the cult classic contains a powerful message. We, the millennials, are the first generation of Americans to be left a society worse than the one our parents inherited. I am Jack’s glistening tear ducts. In 2007, the housing market crashed, and with it the American economy as a whole. This happened, in layman’s terms, due to a corrupt partnership between the government, the banks, and greedy every day Americans. Somewhere along the way, someone in our government (shout out Bill Clinton) decided home ownership is a basic right. I guess James Madison just forgot to write that one down. Enter Fannie May and Freddie Mac. The government pushed banks to make home loans to anyone and everyone who wanted them. The banks jumped on the opportunity, and began writing horrible loans, bundling them together, and selling them to the highest bidder. Americans took the bait hook line and sinker, buying homes way beyond their price ranges, and everything was good, for awhile. Then the foreclosures began. Eventually, no matter how debtor friendly your loan is, the bank is going to ask for their money back. Seemingly out of nowhere, the market crashed. All of those people lost the homes they couldn’t afford, and most of the big banks went belly up. Luckily, wall street funds most of our politicians, and

Uncle Sam was there to pick up the slack. The government bailed out all the banks, to the sum of some 10 trillion dollars. There’s just one problem; governments don’t have any money. Taxpayers have money. The taxpayers of our generation will be paying this debt off for the rest of our, and our unborn children’s lives. I am Jack’s clinching fist. Surely, after that debacle, the banks, the government, and human kind learned their lesson, right? Wrong. Now we have something called government backed student loans. Somewhere along the way, someone in our government (shout out Barack Obama) decided higher education is an basic right. So BHO got with the boys on Wall Street, and started insuring all loans they made to students for college education. Yet again, the banks started writing $100,000 loans to fine arts majors who won’t earn $100,000 in four years of work. And why not? If they can’t pay, Uncle Sam will foot the bill again. I am jacks furrowed brow. However, this created a deeper problem than simply adding to the national debt. It created an oligopoly in the university system. See, people who run colleges are usually pretty smart. Smart enough that they figured out that they can keep jacking up the price of education, and the government will keep lending students the money to pay for it. In a free market, prices rise to meet demand. Now there is limitless demand, because there’s no price the government won’t pay. Because everyone can go to college now, everyone has to go to college now. The average student who could have gone into sales or blue collar labor, and done fine before, now can’t even get consideration for many of those jobs without a

OPINIONS

diploma. Without membership to the “Paper Club.” The Universities have a blank check with Uncle Sam’s, and your, signatures on them. I am Jack’s uneasy stomach. With an unlimited amount of applicants, and the ability to block accreditation of cheaper online schools, the big universities have no reason to worry about the quality of the service they’re charging you a fortune for. UT sold 3 parking passes for every parking space? What are you gonna do about it, go to ITT Tech? The greedy universities are forcing business students to pay for years of biology and geometry they will never use, in the name of becoming “well rounded individuals.” I think I can find a much cheaper way to become well rounded. In no other industry does one pay someone to condescend to him, to be given an advisor who doesn’t fluently speak his language, to be told he can’t take a class he needs to graduate on time this semester. The service has been removed from this service industry, and it is time for a change. I am Jack’s sweaty palms. So, what can we do? How do we beat a monopoly? We must elect candidates to our government who have real, radical ideas for education reform. Marco Rubio’s plan to help accredit small and online schools for much cheaper is the best plan I’ve heard. We must get the governments hand out of this section of the economy, after they bust the education trust. The clock is ticking. Soon this industry will face an economic crisis as well. It is time for millennials to take interest in politics, and stand together for our future. I am Jack’s waxing sense of optimism. Andrew Davis is a senior in Public Relations.

Aliens, ghosts and smokey gray uniforms

Jarrod Nelson Socialized

In my less developed private school years, I got extremely far down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories one year. I went all in. I dived headfirst into an Olympic sized pool and drowned. But I was happy about it -- in the metaphor. Let’s move on. Aliens and ghosts were my favorites. Maybe those are more superstitions than conspiracy theories but the fact that there is debate about the term tells you something about what we’re talking about, doesn’t it? I liked aliens because of the idea that there might be some type of technology or knowledge out there that we have not discovered yet. I liked ghosts because I have a crippling fear of death that lurks within us all and only rears its crippling head when you’re stuck in traffic on the way back from work, or when you’re about to fall asleep. As you drift off, you don’t want to think about the four hours of Kitchen Nightmares you just watched without a hint of irony. Ghosts let me escape that when I was a youth. They were less scary than Gordon Ramsey. I am still what many would call a youth, or maybe a hooligan, and while I’ve left those superstitions behind I’ve assumed the ones that campus and southern culture provides. For example, let’s take the Florida game. It is the perfect illustration of clinging to irrational beliefs when there is really no evidence that things will turn out

differently than trend lines suggest. Two of those beliefs really stand out. Number one, College Gameday is headed to UT again. The last time they were in Knoxville was when we had a coach whose best quality was the color of his pants. People thought we were back that year and then we lost to Florida. Once Corso picked us, we really never had a chance. Number two: we’re checkerboarding Neyland Stadium again. The last time we did that, we lost, and I feel like we’ve lost every single time we’ve done it. Why we don’t just do it for homecoming and establish a winning tradition with it I have no freaking idea, but here we are with a dress code, and a losing one at that. When I heard about checkerboarding, I freaked out. When I heard about Gameday, I was positively despondent. When thinking about the Florida game, I wasn’t thinking about the fact that App State took us to overtime, or that we barely managed to beat one of the 400 teams in the country that are called the “bobcats.” I was just thinking about the superstitions. The things that didn’t have an ounce of causality contained between the two of them. We have a tendency to do this, because it gives us “control” over a situation that, in the end, is completely

out of our hands. Lee Corso’s presence in Knoxville isn’t going to change how the Vols play. The checkerboard doesn’t do anything except look pretty. One of the great myths of humanity, and especially American culture, is that everything in your life is entirely in your hands. That success is dependent only on you. Some of it is. Your choices do matter and they can help or hurt you. I would never tell anyone not to try, because in the end I am an existentialist and not a nihilist. But with many things, it’s out of your hands. In college that can be hard to understand, because you are graded on everything you do. If you think about it though, it makes sense. Just take Occam’s Razor to it like Sweeney Todd on a “client.” There are seven billion people on this planet. That number is unfathomable when you consider that everyone else is leading a life as complicated as yours. There’s going to be some overlapping blame. It’s easy to get stressed. College is a hydraulic press of personal responsibility. Now, imagine if everyone breathed. Jarrod Nelson is a senior in public relations and can be reached at jnelso47@vols.utk.edu.

Orchestra’s celebration of Russian composers proves magical Anu Kumar

Staff Writer

What do Shostakovich, Borodin and Tchaikovsky have in common? They all had their works played by the University of Tennessee Symphony Orchestra Sunday night, Sept. 18. The concert featured UT’s 70 orchestra members playing “Festive Overture,” “Nocturne” and the “Swan Lake Suite.” The Orchestra was conducted by the Associate Professor of Conducting and the Director of Orchestras James Fellenbaum and was held in James R. Cox auditorium. While the auditorium wasn’t a full house, there were plenty of spectators to view the magic on stage as the ensemble prepared to perform. “Festive Overture” was a feisty and brilliant piece that showcased unyielding energy. After Joseph Stalin’s rule, “Festive Overture” celebrated the anniversary of the October Revolution (also referred to as the Russian Revolution). Shostakovich’s music, written during Stalin’s rule, was noticeably dark, possibly influenced by the time period. However, post-Stalin Shostakovich’s works became brighter and full of life. “Festive Overture” was one of the few compositions that

The University of Tennessee Symphony Orchestra performs in the Cox Auditorium on Sunday, Sept. 18, 2016. Anu Kumar • The Daily Beacon Shostakovich conducted. If anyone was drowsy at the beginning of the concert, I can’t imagine them being the same once the downbeat hit. “Nocturne” was the “ballad” of the concert. Borodin was a physician and chemist and composed music on the side. This is the third movement in his String Quartet No. 2, and was also arranged by Malcolm Sargent, who included the string bass parts. Musical lines from “Nocturne” can be found in popular music, such as the musical “Kismet” by

Wright and Forrest. The piece was full of long, melodious passages and featured a call-and-answer section between the violin and cello voices. The final piece, “Swan Lake Suite,” was the longest but also the most entertaining. This was the piece that all of the performers were physically getting into — bobbing and swaying to the music. My eyes were glued to the stage as much as my ears were. Tchaikovsky originally started composing to keep his nieces and nephews preoc-

cupied and entertained, not realizing that his work would influence classical ballet in a monumental fashion. The suite has eight movements, all with their own unique style, but the general cohesive nature of the composition was preserved throughout the entire performance. I thoroughly enjoyed this performance, especially since it was my first time hearing the Symphony Orchestra play. I know I’ll definitely be coming back to listen to them more often.

“Bridget Jones’ Baby” for spinsters, singletons and hustlers Rebecca Randolph Copy Editor

I saw “Bridget Jones’ Baby” as Bridget, herself, would: alone and with chocolate. The popular series, an adaption of the 1996 series of novels by Helen Fielding, has captivated audiences since the release of “Bridget Jones’ Diary” in 2001. The feature films include an all-star cast of Renee Zellweger as Bridget Jones for three movies, then Colin Firth, Hugh Grant and now Patrick Dempsey as her suitors vying for her attention. “Bridget Jones’ Baby,” the newest installation, comes ten years after the release of the second movie in the series and is lacking one of Bridget’s main male leads. They did an incredible job of writing away Hugh Grant’s character and completely sold the idea of Patrick Dempsey, playing Jack Qwant, swooping in to steal Bridget’s heart. The movie focuses on what happens when Bridget discovers she is pregnant after two one-night stands, one with Mark Darcy (Colin Firth), her on-again, off-again love

interest, and then one with Jack, a random American she meets at a music festival. Without knowing the baby’s father, she is thrust into the oddest and most hysterical polyamorous relationship. Firth is the wonderfully uptight British stereotype in his role as Mark, which leads to just as many laughs as Dempsey’s Jack is a slick American attempting to win Bridget’s love over Mark. I was the youngest person in the theatre by at least 30 years, but the movie was still relatable. There was no age gap between me, a 20-year-old college student, connecting with Zellweger’s Bridget, who is a 43-year-old British woman. I may not be hitting stride in a job, pregnant or have men falling over themselves to spend the night with me, but Bridget Jones was relatable to a woman finding out she had to adjust to the many changes life has thrown at her. It helped that Zellweger is a queen of physical comedy. There were so many moments I openly laughed aloud in the theatre, including the popular moment in the trailer where Bridget falls into a pit of mud at the very same music festival she meets Jack. Each line is delivered with a snap and the timing

is perfect, especially in conversations between Mark and Jack. Firth and Dempsey do not disappoint in their chemistry on screen, and it’s arguably better than Firth and Grant’s in the previous films. From guest appearances in the film by Ed Sheeran to, quite frankly, some of the best sex scenes I’ve seen in a movie recently, “Bridget Jones’ Baby” ultimately brings laughs over tears. Many times romantic comedies will often have too many poignant or sweet moments that are meant to bring their primarily female audience to tears, but this was almost entirely comedy with some baby-daddy drama for extra ridiculousness. “Bridget Jones’ Baby” is for all the singletons, spinsters, cat ladies and hustlers; because at the end of the day it was about finding yourself and being happy with that person, with or without a relationship. It was an incredible film and one I will definitely be watching again: alone and with chocolate.

Baseball Vols bring in newcomers, release fall schedule Rob Harvey

Asst. Sports Editor New faces will be on the baseball diamond this upcoming spring as 17 newcomers will be on the team. Coach Dave Serrano met with the media on Monday telling them it took the Vols coaching staff a couple of days to get to know all the new names. “It presents a great opportunity for us,� Serrano said. “Many challenges ahead of us, lot of growing pains we’ll go through, but a lot of opportunity for us to build this program.� Freshman Zach Linginfelter is the most notable newcomer for the Vols. Linginfelter, a Sevierville native, was the number one pitcher

and number two player to come out of the state of Tennessee for the 2016 class. Linginfelter was drafted in the 16th round of the MLB by the New York Yankees but opted to come to UT instead. Another notable newcomer for the Vols is redshirt senior Reggie Southhall. Southhall, a graduate transfer from Southern California, started 31 of 42 games last season for the Trojans and will challenge returning shortstop Max Bartlett for the starting role. “Reggie is a transfer,� Serrano said. “We return Max Bartlett in the middle at shortstop also, and I think we’re going to have a great battle at shortstop with those two. I really like what I’ve seen and I know my coaches’ half of the battle they’re going to have. Whoever wins

Coach Dave Serrano discusses the Vols upcoming fall practices. Rob Harvey • The Daily Beacon that job at shortstop is going to be a pretty good player because they battled for it.â€? The Vols return a handful of starters from last season, most notably Jordan Rodgers. Rodgers, a senior from Bartlett, Tennessee, had a breakout season last year where he hit .286 with 51 RBI. Junior centerfielder Brodie Leftridge will also be returning to the Vols and is considered by Serrano as “one of the best centerfielders in the country.â€? While these players will need to step up and be leaders for the Vols for them to be successful, Serrano said the young guys will also need to be leaders. “We don’t expect or want just our older guys to be leaders,â€? Serrano said. “I think we have

The Vols will host many events during the fall including the Dave Serrano Golf Classic on Oct. 14, a scout day where Vol players will workout for Major League Baseball teams and a scrimmage against Belmont on the same day. The fall will conclude in the Vol’s annual Orange and White World Series where they will face off in an intrasquad five game series. That will be held on Oct. 25 - 29.

Vols receive injury news from Sutton, Reeves-Maybin Rob Harvey

Asst. Sports Editor Injuries plagued the Vols on Saturday when two defensive captains, Jalen Reeves-Maybin and Cam Sutton, both went down with injuries. On Monday, head coach Butch Jones gave an update on the two players. “Jalen Reeves-Maybin will be at practice,” Jones said. “We anticipate him being ready to go (for Florida). “Cam Sutton has a fractured ankle. He’ll be out an extended period of time. There’s been no time frame in which he’ll return.” Sutton, a senior defensive back and captain on the team, has started all 41 games in which he has played in his Tennessee career. Sutton went down early in the first quarter on Saturday against Ohio and tried to return but was shut down by the trainers. Reeves-Maybin strained his shoulder on Saturday in the first half and sat out the rest of the game. Redshirt freshman linebacker Quart’e Sapp also went down on Saturday in the second

quarter on a kickoff. Coach Jones said on Monday that Sapp suffered an ACL injury and will be done for the season. As for injuries that occurred before this Saturday there is some good news for the Vols. Sophomore offensive lineman Chance Hall, who has been out the first three games of the season due to arthroscopic knee surgery, is expected to practice this week and should be available to play this weekend. “Chance Hall will be at practice today so we fully anticipate him to be ready to go (for Florida),” Jones said. Josh Smith and Justin Martin were both sidelined on Saturday due to ankle injuries, but Jones said that both will be available for Florida and both will start. Martin will be a huge return for the Vols as he will try and fill Sutton’s spot. For the healthy players, all the injuries surrounding the team and the risk of getting injured on every play doesn’t seem to affect their play. “I just pray to God and just have faith that my training and the time I put in the weight room and the training room that that won’t happen,” senior defensive end Corey Vereen

Injuries have plagued the Vols this season, but the players continue to not hold back. Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon said. “If it happens, it is what it is. God’s plan is different for everyone else so I’m just following the path.” Sophomore safety Micah Abernathy added that he won’t change the way he plays to “try

and not get injured.” As the Vols start this brutal four-game SEC stretch of Florida, at Georgia, at Texas A&M and Alabama, injuries will need to be limited for the Vols if they want to compete in the SEC East title race.
