Air Force ROTC leaders fly, fight, win Shelby Whitehead Contributor
Based on the core values of “integrity first, service before self and excellence in all we do,” the Air Force ROTC program at UT molds students into military leaders. “The core values are everything,” Evan Tuck, public liaison flight commander, said. “They are things to guide you through your personal life. The Air Force
Volume 132 Issue 44
believes those are things you should abide by all the time, and you use the core values as something to come back to and to help you make good decisions.” AFROTC is found at the intersection of military training, leadership focus and character development at the university level. “You’re held to a different moral standard, I think, by society when you become a military officer, and those core values help make sure you maintain that high standard for yourself,” Tuck said. AFROTC is a four-year program that
students may begin within their freshman or sophomore years. Many scholarships are available to students through the AFROTC program. There are three stages to AFROTC. The first is the general military course when cadets learn about the air force and military environment before making a commitment to service. This is a time of bonding among underclassmen cadets. The next step is field training. Field training is very similar to basic training, which means strict dietary standards and no contact with the outside world. Unlike
utdailybeacon.com @utkdailybeacon
basic training, though, field training is geared toward leading rather than following. “Basic training is to indoctrinate you into the military and teaches you to be a good follower,” Tuck said. “Field training is about throwing you into leadership situations where you’re under a lot of stress and seeing how you respond to that and evaluating you and helping you get better as a leader, instead of a follower.” See AFROTC on Page 3

Progressive activist Tom Hayden dies at 76
Airbnb offers stay in Dracula’s Castle
Former Knoxville church to be redeveloped
Tom Hayden, a radical activist and advocate for progressive causes, died Sunday, Oct. 23rd at the age of 76. Hayden had been an activist since the 1960’s, when he was a freedom rider during the civil rights movement, and an adamant anti-war activist. He was also member of the “Chicago Seven,” which were individuals prosecuted for allegedly inciting riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. An icon of the anti-establishment movement for years, he was later elected to the California State Legislature in 1976, where he served for 18 years.
With Halloween just around the corner, popular home sharing website Airbnb has offered a spooky contest. For between 50 to 500 words you can explain what you would say to the iconic Count Dracula of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” novel for a chance to win a one night stay in the castle that inspired the novel. Bran Castle in Romania was the home of Vlad the Impaler, the man whom inspired Stoker’s tale. The host for the evening will be Stoker’s great grandnephew, Dacre Stoker, who will take winners on a tour of the castle and have dinner with them before guests retire to two velvet lined coffins.
The former location of South Knoxville’s Sevier Heights Baptist Church has been chosen to be the site of the major redevelopment project titled “Baker Creek Bottoms.” Even though the project is still in its early stages of fruition, developers Thomas Krajewski and Tom Weiss hope to officially close the property by the end of the year and immediately begin redevelopment. Right now potential tenants of the space include a hotel, brewery, theater and restaurant.

Zaevion Dobson’s mother to speak at UT Law Isabella King
Contributor
On Dec. 17, 2015, Zaevion Dobson died protecting three women from gunfire as a spree of connected shootings spread through North Knoxville. And on Nov. 1, Zenobia Dobson, mother of Zaevion Dobson, will speak at UT on behalf of the Zaevion Dobson Memorial Foundation. “She’ll start to talk some about his early years,” Esther Roberts, chief executive officer with Global Intellectual Property and visiting administrator at UT’s Legal Clinic, said. “She’ll talk a little bit about Zaevion as a person and how his loss has affected her family. Then how this loss can become a call to arms basically to make sure that communities come together and create safe spaces for these young people so that there is a forward thinking vision and a mission to move forward.” Zaevion Dobson was a 15-year-old sophomore at Fulton High School when he was shot in a drive-by shooting while protecting two of his friends. He did not survive. In memory of Zaevion, Zenobia Dobson start-
ed the Zaevion Dobson Memorial Foundation. which works to create safe places, such as recreation centers or libraries, for young adults to gather. “Her vision is to have recreation centers that are safe places for these youth, these underserved communities, to have to go play, hang out, read, study, just a safe space,” Roberts said. “Because two generations ago, there were lots of places to go that were safe. And a generation ago, there were rec centers, but this modern generation doesn’t seem to have any place to go where they can feel really safe.” Zenobia will speak as part of the Charles H. Miller Lecture in Professional Responsibility series. Lisa Holden, coordinator at the legal clinic, explained that the Miller lecture is named after Charles H. Miller, who founded the UT Legal clinic in 1947. The Dobsons are connected to the UT Law Clinic because they used the trademark clinic to get everything associated with the non-profit trademarked there. The lecture series was established in 1977, and has had such speakers as Paul Butler, Georgetown law professor, and Johnathan Rapping, founder

UT Professor presents drug research to FTC Annie Tieu
Contributor The warning labels on prescription drugs can make people wonder why they are taking them in the first place –– if people even read them. University of Tennessee advertising professor Mariea Hoy has scientific evidence that people do not read warnings on their medicine. Hoy and Abbey Levenshus, former UT faculty and current assistant professor in strategic communication at Butler University, conducted an experiment to study if people notice or read risk information on branded drug websites. Their findings were recently published in the “Journal of Risk Research.” In September, Hoy presented her findings in Washington, D.C., at a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) workshop titled “Putting Disclosures to Test.” Researchers recruited 29 people in UT who were diagnosed by a doctor with seasonal allergies. They were told that the study was on how individuals seek out health information online and that they would be looking on a website for a new prescription allergy drug. The website included information about the benefits and risks of a fake allergy drug.
“
The risk section included four paragraphs, one of which had risks that were unique to the drug. This was designed so that even though participants might have already been familiar with the common risks of allergy drugs, they could not have known about these risks. While participants explored the website, the researchers used eye-tracking technology to find where people looked on the website and how long they looked at something. After participants finished looking at the website they completed a survey which included questions about how much of the risk information they had read and how much of it they recalled. Hoy conducted interviews with them after the survey where she and participants revisited the website, and participants walked her through what they were thinking as they explored it. Hoy and Levenshus concluded that although 80 percent of the study participants claimed to have read half of the information or more, they had done little reading and had limited recall of the listed risks. Familiarity with the type of drug created an optimism bias, or the tendency for people to believe that nothing bad will happen to them. “They thought they knew all about antihistamines, and so they literally said they weren’t concerned about looking for risk informa-
Their perceived familiarity led them to think this new fictitious allergy drug isn’t any riskier than anything else they’ve taken. This thinking resulted in them totally missing the novel risks for the drug.” Mariea Hoy, UT Advertising Professor

tion,” Hoy said. “Their perceived familiarity led them to think that this new fictitious allergy drug isn’t any riskier than anything else they’ve taken. This thinking resulted in them totally missing the novel risks for the drug.” To increase consumers’ attention to drug risks, the researchers recommended that drug companies present these risks in a different way. They also suggested that any new risks be emphasized through different borders or colors than typical risks and that risks be presented before benefits. Hoy also encouraged drug companies to conduct this kind of research. “Eye-tracking can help individual drug companies understand if consumers are looking for or reading the risks on their websites,” Hoy said. “Follow-up interviews can help companies understand why they may not be reading the risks and potentially address those reasons.” Nathaniel J. Evans, former graduate student of Hoy and assistant professor in advertising at the University of Georgia, also presented an article, co-authored by Hoy, at the FTC panel. “As communication or advertising researchers, it is important to understand the mechanisms of how individuals process important information and the implications of what happens if they do or if they do not,” Evans said. “The general idea is that we want people to notice, process and evaluate this information because it creates more informed and better educated consumers.”

AFROTC continued from Page 1 The final stage is the professional officer course during which time cadets transition into a contracted and upperclassman position. POCs, as they are titled, are responsible for running the AFROTC detachment. AFROTC is unique in that it is mostly student operated, further pushing cadets into the leadership positions as they command a detachment of underclassman. All events and activities are geared toward developing strong and committed leaders. Gracie Hall, public liaison flight deputy and member of a military family, believes AFROTC is adequate in breaking the stereotypes surrounding women in military service by combining men and women in the leadership setting. “Though a lot of stigma is there, (AFROTC) doesn’t perpetuate it. Like, it kind of laughs at it. Look at all these girls who did this,” Hall said. The AFROTC program is not limited to individuals interested in combat positions. The technical field is prominent within the branch, including options in engineering and computer science fields. Sometimes, but rarely, there are cadets interested in special forces, jobs involving drone piloting and intelligence officers. AFROTC views this as an advantageous time to join the air force due to the need of second lieutenants, the level that ROTC cadets graduate into. The Air Force’s mission is to fly, fight and win in airspace and cyberspace. AFROTC aims to take this to a different level by maintaining a leadership focus.

It’s time to put out the fire Jarrod Nelson Socialized
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” That’s some good stuff right there. Even people who hate the constitution tend to enjoy it; it’s the part that says it’s okay to hate the constitution; it’s the part that says it’s okay to love the constitution; it’s the part that let’s people like me get by in this country even though my ass is firmly in bed on Sunday morning, often writing a column. I’m even thinking of naming my wonderful mattress pad “civic duty.” This paper got into a bit of kerfuffle over the last week. Perhaps you heard about “They’re Not All Like That.” Perhaps you read it. Perhaps you saw its poorly sourced argument about how most Muslims and refugees are terrorists. Perhaps you, too, noticed that it was written in a style even Elmer Fudd would say had “readability problems.” Perhaps it filled you with great fire and furious retribution. Perhaps you saw the response, and perhaps you saw the printed justification on why this paper published it. Count yourselves lucky on that. Rarely do institutions feel the need to justify themselves. This paper said, in its response, that it is first and foremost a platform –– a stage –– for all the players to come and act upon. I get to act on it every week, and turn in a performance I would describe as frustratingly consistent. About the only people they probably would not let on the stage are the ones that plan on burning it down. Ashes and cinder don’t make for good currency. I think it’s safe to say that that letter started a fire, and that people have been treating the First Amendment like it is a bucket of water, trying to throw it over the decision to publish and put out the flames. Perhaps it is not, though. The first amendment isn’t like water. It does not give cover, and it does not put out the flames of controversy. The first amendment is like gasoline. Fumes permeate everything. It’s an accelerant that spreads through the air. It gives life to fires, makes them hungrier. Think about an argument on Facebook you’ve had, a place where speech is unlimited and you can’t be made to back down due to volume, exhaustion, or the fact that the person you’re arguing with has tear drop tattoos all the way down to the swastika tattoo on his neck. It’s laissez-faire speech. And it never ends. Our country is designed that way. It’s built on that kindling in the hope that the fire warms up people who need it instead of burns down

the houses of those already downtrodden. This makes sense. We use fire in our homes all the time. It cooks and heats us up. But there’s also a fire department. Perhaps I fundamentally disagree on the role of a newspaper. I’m not angry at this paper. After all, here I am on this stage. It clearly has value. If you’re reading this, it means that the ideology is at the very least consistent and sincerely held, whether you agree with it or not, and that is something to be commended. But I think papers and the media need to be more like fire departments. When something is clearly out of control, when something is clearly wrong, when something is burning just because someone likes to watch flames, I feel like it is the duty of those in a position of power to do something about it. Because if someone is allowed to just burn the stage down, soon enough no one is going to want to play. Jarrod Nelson is a senior in public relations and can be reached at jnelso47@vols.utk.edu

Indie band humbled by hometown roots, fanbase Mary Beth McCauley Staff Writer
When Hayden Bright and Tyler Thomas hear the word “mayfest,” it takes them back to their middle school days where their band’s roots began. When Bright, the lead vocalist of Mayfest, attended Cedar Bluff Middle School, he went to an event called May Fest — which celebrated the upcoming summer season. He and one of his friends used to take their acoustic guitars and play at the event, mostly to see who would stop and listen. One year Thomas came by and told Bright how excited he would be to play drums with them, and the rest was history. This local indie rock group has come a long way since its inception. Bright and Thomas originally played with other musicians in a very different group. Ryan Clure is Mayfest’s current bassist, though he was previously their guitarist. He also co-writes many of the group’s songs with Bright, Thomas and guitarist Michael Gastineau. Gastineau joined in January of 2016. “Ever since then, we’ve stuck together,” Clure said. “We practice every week and play shows as often as we can.” You can find Mayfest playing at the Open
Chord or at the Purple Polilla, a pop-up venue located off Broadway Street. Just this past weekend, Mayfest headlined a hometown show at the Open Chord featuring other local acts such as The Field Notes, The Sedonas and Robinson Park. Next week, they’ll be travelling to Louisville, Kentucky for their first out-of-state show. One thing that stands out about Mayfest is their fan base. As soon as the doors opened at the venue last Friday night, tie-dye shirts with the band’s name on them could be seen everywhere. Their merch table was lined with friends and fans before the show even began, and the band members spent the majority of their time shaking hands, hugging and having conversations with their supporters. This is Mayfest’s first year playing together as a band, and they have already seen significant hometown success. “Whenever four people are able to connect on a musical level that speaks to someone’s emotions, I think it draws more attention to us,” Clure said. Bright also attributes much of their success to the musician’s chemistry. “There’s so many bands, and there are a lot of good bands,” Bright said. “But when the weakest link in your band is the person who wants this more than anything, it really makes working together so much easier.” Mayfest’s one-year anniversary is coming up

Loreena McKennitt to bring world music roots to Knoxville Staff Report Very few musicians achieve worldwide reknown playing multiple instruments for large crowds. Fortunately for Loreena McKennitt, she’s one of those lucky few. McKennitt has been playing piano since she was five years old and later learned how to play the harp and the accordion by herself. “I don’t play (accordion) particularly well,” McKennitt said. “(But) I’ve learned enough to use it as color (in my music).” McKennitt specializes in composing and performing world music, which is comprised of music from various cultures and time periods from around the globe. McKennitt began to turn towards world music during the late ‘70s, when she was part of a folk music club. “There were members from Scotland, Ireland and England,” she said. “Each person would take turns
or (lead) with a tune, and sometimes people would play along with it.” That experience, along with her visit to Venice in 1991 and joining a Celtic music group, gave McKennitt a creative springboard that launched her into world music. Her current performance is a trio featuring McKennitt, Brian Hughes and Caroline Lavelle. Both Lavelle and Hughes have been long time collaborators with McKennitt. This is the second time that McKennitt will be performing without a larger ensemble and in a more intimate musical setting. “It’s a good change,” McKennitt said. “Typically, I can be with five to eight other musicians (on a tour).” The instrumentation ranges from fiddlers, hurdy gurdys, band instruments, varied percussion voices and middle eastern reed instruments. McKennitt’s composition style has definitely evolved over the years. As she traveled to various places, like Ireland or Morocco, she took some
inspiration from her destinations. “I was interested in responding creatively to music that was indigenous to these places,” McKennitt said. “I also took a trip to Rajastan, but I haven’t had a lot of time to work on that creatively. I’ve wanted to get on with that (project) in the next year or so.” In addition to her travelling endeavors, McKennitt also runs her own record label which she started back in 1989. In 1991 she signed an international license, so her recordings were distributed all over the world. “I’ve maintained my own label (and) I still have connections with different distributers,” McKennit said. “I consider myself one of the lucky few to perform and record.” McKennitt will be performing at the Tennessee Theatre on Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. You can buy tickets and find more information about McKennitt’s performance at the historic Tennessee Theatre at http://www.tennesseetheatre.com.

MEN’S TENNIS Mularkey insists Titans are better, need more consistency Valero, Schipanski make history Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Mike Mularkey insists his Tennessee Titans are a good team. Yet for every great offensive drive or defensive stand, they stumble through stretches of games. The Titans blew a 23-20 lead in the fourth quarter in losing 34-26 to Indianapolis, their 10th straight loss to their AFC South rival and worse considering the banged-up roster the Colts brought to Tennessee. The loss dropped Tennessee to 3-4 overall and just 1-3 at home. Now the Titans face a quick turnaround, hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-4) on Thursday night. Mularkey said Monday the key
to being better more consistently is keep working like they have. “We’ve played seven games, we’ve had chances to win in all of them,� Mularkey said. “And for some reason or not, we haven’t. And some reason or not, we have. What we’ve done good has helped us get over the top. These have all been close games, and we’ve just got to find a way.� Mularkey said all the Titans believed they would hold the Colts to a field goal at worst and win. Yet, Andrew Luck converted a third-and-13 with a 20-yard pass to set up the go-ahead TD before Marcus Mariota was sacked and stripped of the ball for a second Colts’ TD eight seconds later.

Jack Schipanski was all smiles. Not only did he and Luis Valero capture Tennessee’s fourth ITA Ohio Valley Regional Championship in program history after edging Kentucky’s Beck Pennington and Enzo Wallart 3-6, 6-4, 10-4 on Monday morning, but for the first time in his life, Schipanski is heading to New York. “It was a tough tournament, so to get through it is amazing,� Schipanski said. “(I’ve) never been to New York, so that was kind of on my mind.� With the comeback victory, the fifth-ranked duo in the country punched their ticket to the ITA National Indoors Championship. “We have worked for it,� Valero said. “Jack, he played unbelievable. He lifted me up. I started a bit nervous.� The beginning of the match left Tennessee in danger of missing out on one of tennis’ most exclusive tournaments. Kentucky managed to grab a 2-0 lead in the first set and never looked back, closing out the set 6-3. For Schipanski and Valero, the adjustments heading into the second set were minimal, but they made all the difference. “It wasn’t a whole lot (of adjustments),� Schipanski said. “First set was pretty close.

we kept putting them under a bit of pressure on their serve ‌ in the end, perseverance paid off.â€? After a first set of cautious shooting, Tennessee found its confidence in the second set, but the Wildcats still maintained the lead for the majority of the set. Both duos engaged in a back-andforth affair. Every time Kentucky scored a point, the Vols bounced right back to tie the set, only to surrender the lead once again. Tennessee finally grabbed control after a powerful strike from Schipanski ricocheted off of Pennington’s racket and sailed out of bounds, giving the Vols the 5-4 advantage. Tennessee made sure to close the deal on the next point and won the set 6-4. In the final set, Schipanski and Valero played their best tennis, establishing an early lead and closing the match with a dominant 10-4 performance. “The thing that pleases me the most is they found a way to get into the match,â€? associate head coach Chris Woodruff said. “They could’ve easily lost in straight sets, but they executed really well and by the end of the match, they were playing as well as they played in the whole match. That’s something as a coach you like to see.â€? Schipanski and Valero will receive much-needed rest before traveling to New York City in a couple of weeks. The ITA National Indoors Championship begins on Nov. 3 and concludes on Nov. 6.

Soccer Vols defeated on senior night by Gamecocks Damichael Cole Contributor
In their final home game of the season, the Vols ran into a juggernaut in South Carolina. The Vols (10-7-1) lost to the Gamecocks (16-0-1) 2-0 in a game that was neck-in-neck through the first half. South Carolina Dominance: Entering this game, South Carolina was already known as one of the most dominant teams in the nation. South Carolina entered the game with a (15-0-1) record and a 15-game winning streak. They only gave up seven goals the entire season, putting them eighth in the nation in goals against average. “They defend with ten behind the ball,” head coach Brian Pensky said after Tuesday’s loss. “They don’t give our wide backs a lot of time and space to get forward in the attack.” Seniors last home game: For the six seniors on the team, the game didn’t end the way they wanted, but the seniors still have a leadership role. They will always be helping the younger players, even when they’re gone. “I really hope that the rest of the team
remembers that this group of seniors loves and wants the best for them,” senior defender Emily Morrow said. “Even though we might not be on the field with them next year, we are going to be behind them and supporting them.” Of the six seniors, five played in the home finale. Here’s how they fared in the game: Kiah Allen: started as a midfielder and played six minutes. Hannah Wilkinson: started as a forward and had one shot on goal. Played 90 minutes or more for just the fourth time this season. Emily Morrow: started as a defender and played all 90 minutes. She was one of six starters to play the entire game. Cali Hutson: started as a midfielder and played six minutes. Anna McClung: started as a midfielder and played 19 minutes. She took two shots in the game, both on goal. Jamie Simmons: started at goalkeeper and played all 90 minutes. She had two saves in the game. SEC Tournament Seeding: The Vols and their seniors still have a lot to play for.

Injured Vols defense benefit from bye week Rob Harvey
Asst. Sports Editor A bye week couldn’t have come at a better time for the Vols. The Vols spent their week recovering and it seemed to prove helpful for some injured players. On Monday, head coach Butch Jones gave updates on the long list of injured players on the team, most notably Darrin Kirkland Jr. and Alvin Kamara. “I’m very encouraged that Darrin Kirkland is going to play in this game,” Jones said. “He has worked hard. He was questionable for the previous week but wasn’t just quite ready to go. I think with that week off and obviously the work week, we are anticipating him being ready to go.” In regards to Kamara, Butch said “he won’t be back this week but we do anticipate him to come back in a few weeks. As of right now he does not need surgery, and we anticipate him back in the next week or two.” Kirkland has missed the last five games due to an ankle injury suffered in the Virginia Tech game. He had 16 tackles in the two games he
Alvin Kamara, #6, avoids the Alabama defense on Oct. 15, 2016. Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon did play in. For junior linebacker Colton Jumper, who has been filling in for Kirkland, having him back on the field is vital. “It’s going to be great to have Darrin back this week,” Jumper said. “He’s a very athletic guy, very quick, and he has a lot of playmaking abilities. He really embodies what a linebacker
is.” On the other side of the ball, ,younger running backs will have to fill Kamara’s spot on the offense. “Carlin Fils-aime is going to have to play” Jones said. “We are going to need him. He’s working very hard on the consistency aspect of his game and also the intensity it takes to
perform at a very high level.” Fils-aime is just a freshman and has been very limited this season with just four carries for 19 yards on the season. Fils-aime will be behind junior Jalen Hurd and sophomore John Kelly in the lineup, but with Kelly being a younger player as well, Fils-aime will have to step up if necessary. As for the rest of the Vols injuries, Jones said that most of the injured players, including the whole offensive line, would be available to at least practice this week. “All of those individuals will be back at practice today,” Jones said. “Some will be in green jerseys (non-contact jerseys), but they have worked themselves back into practice. Offensive front wise, everyone should be back ready to go. We are going to gain a lot of these players back. “Malik Foreman will be back and practice today. We will see how much he can do. It’s a testament to them, their work ethic and their internal drive to get back on the field for us.” Jones said on Monday that the Vols have yet to play a complete game. If all these players return on Saturday, however, the Vols may be looking at their first complete game of the season.
