In light of recent media coverage, the University-Wide Committee on Sexual Misconduct will host an internal town hall meeting, tentatively set for this afternoon to discuss its policies and address potential concerns, according to an email obtained by the News.

Over the past two weeks, the University’s handling of sexual misconduct has received significant media attention. On Nov. 1, The New York Times exposed a case of sexual harassment at the School of Medicine, and last Friday, the News disclosed the details of another case of alleged sexual misconduct between two Yale College students.

Last Thursday, UWC Chair David Post sent an email to committee members proposing a meeting that will allow them to voice any concerns or questions they might have about UWC procedures.

“At this time, the UWC and our procedures are receiving considerable attention and scrutiny,” Post wrote. “I know many of you may have questions or concerns about the issues raised by the press coverage and resulting conversations across the Yale community.”

Yale to host Yale-NUS exchange students

In their tightest win of the season, the Bulldogs turned to running back Tyler Varga ’15 to topple Brown 45–42, giving the Bulldogs a 7–1 record this season. SEE PAGE 8

Next semester, four YaleNUS sophomores will arrive on Yale College’s campus to debut the new exchange program between the two institutions.

Planning for the semesterlong exchange program has been in the works since early 2013, months before Yale-NUS opened its doors in August of last year. Though Yale College is hosting Yale-NUS students this spring, Yale-NUS will not be hosting Yale College students until the opening of its new campus in 2015. While YaleNUS President Pericles Lewis did not provide details about the program’s future, he said there will be further collaboration between Yale College and YaleNUS to accommodate Yale College students who may want to study abroad at Yale-NUS. “Launching this program

speaks to the importance of the ties between our two institutions. In addition to the great collaborations already in place between our faculty and staff, student exchanges are one of the best ways for our two institutions to better understand each other and build lasting ties,” said Yale-NUS Dean of International and Professional Experience Anastasia Vrachnos.

Adrian Stymne NUS ’17, who will be coming to Yale College in January as an exchange student, said he was attracted to the exchange program because he wanted to explore a broad range of courses before he declared his major and gain exposure to Yale College’s extracurriculars.

Though Stymne said he is more excited than worried about his upcoming semester in New Haven, he said he is nervous about making the transition SEE YALE-NUS PAGE4

OPINION

.COMMENT “To an outsider, this almost feels as though Yale is becoming Harvard's yaledailynews.com/opinion

New Haven branch.”

Selling your soul: part II T

his is the second part of a two-part column on finance and management consulting.

My plea is this: Don’t go work on Wall Street.

First of all, the job sucks. If you take it thinking you’re going to learn valuable skills and do important work, you’re wrong — and Wall Street firms hire the most expensive public relations firms to make you believe this lie. The most important skill for any young banker is proficiency in Microsoft Excel. As Kevin Roose chronicled recently in his excellent book, “Young Money,” first and second-year employees are treated like garbage — constantly hazed, humiliated and forced to do pointless, demeaning grunt work. Their relationships are ruined and they hardly sleep. Even worse is the cutthroat competitiveness.

And even worse are the consequences of the work itself.

Often, when someone critiques Wall Street, its supporters respond by defending capitalism itself — not Wall Street in its present form. But such an argument is hard to make in the post2008 world, after Wall Street firms intentionally “deceived its clients and deceived the public” by creating “high risk, complex financial products,” engaging in dicey mortgage lending and profiting from wild speculation, according to a 2011 Senate study.

This behavior continues.

As journalist Adam Davidson wrote, a number of leading economists, including several at New York University, have noted that “a significant part of Wall Street’s business has shifted from serving the financial needs of the nation to profiting from ‘regulatory arbitrage’ — making money by playing with the rules of the game.” Wall Street firms have increasingly stopped advising companies or helping them raise money — instead, they make money only for themselves. Goldman Sachs derived 46 percent of its revenue from trading, while only 22 percent came from investment banking, according to the 2013 earnings report. And Goldman is no outlier. Besides, this emphasis on regulatory arbitrage can make markets dangerously volatile.

And this behavior is not merely the consequence of shady actions. In their relentless pursuit of profits, Wall Street firms casually and consistently commit crimes. In the midst of the financial crisis, for instance, several big banks made a pattern of foreclosing on the homes of active service members, which is illegal as well as immoral. In recent years, many banks, including Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Citigroup, admitted to illegally laundering billions for narco-terrorists. HSBC, in addition to laundering money for drug cartels, helped move money to finance Hezbollah — and it continued to do so even after one of its own

e m p l oye e s lodged complaints with both the government and HSBC itself.

But this column is not an argument SCOTT against Wall STERN Street itself.

It is specifiA Stern cally an arguPerspective ment against Yale kids going off to work there — even if they work there for only two years, as so many of them do.

Some may claim that these high-paying jobs are a way for the underprivileged to pay off their loans or help out back home. That’s a nice fantasy, and, occasionally, it’s true. But Wall Streeters frequently come from high tax brackets, largely because the firms recruit so heavily at places like Yale (a school dominated by rich people). And I don’t even think the money is the main motivation. I fear people go work on Wall Street because they are ignorant about many of its problems, and because it’s the easy thing to do — the well-defined, well-paying route. It’s laziness.

It’s a lack of creativity.

One of the many results of going to Yale is that society treats you as if you are better than everyone else. Of course, this is a misguided, terribly unfair situation, but it is reality: Yalies get the best jobs, get all the advantages. Surely with such great, unwarranted advantages comes some degree of responsibility.

Surely there are better things Wall Streeters could be doing with their time.

We live in a country still rife with prejudice — not to mention income inequality — and in a world that's facing war and strife and an impending environmental Armageddon. Is taking a job on Wall Street — a job you will probably hate — really the greatest amount of good you can reasonably be doing? Can we really afford to keep sending kids to bask in opulent social uselessness? Surely your economics textbooks told you about opportunity costs. Furthermore, by taking a job on Wall Street, you are cementing your place among a soft, privileged elite. You are helping only rich people get richer. Even if for just two years, you are a cog in a machine that is both hopelessly broken and ruthlessly efficient.

If you go work on Wall Street, or, for that matter, in management consulting, you are not a progressive. If you go work in these industries, you have forfeited the right to be proud of what you do. If you go into finance or consulting, you are doing harm.

VIEW NOTES FOR THE DEAN

Before colleges, show us the numbers

I

n a 2008 statement backing the creation of two new residential colleges, then-University President Richard Levin argued that “it is time to use our augmented resources to prepare a larger number of the most talented and promising students of all backgrounds for leadership and service.”

This is a laudable goal. More important, though, is ensuring that the students who do come here receive the education Yale College promises, one marked by intimacy and accessibility.

A Yale education should challenge us, but it shouldn’t be challenging to get into classes or win the attention of professors.

Indeed, Yale touts its commitment to undergraduate education as an attribute that sets us apart from peer institutions.

The hard truth is that the College’s existing academic resources cannot accommodate 800 additional students.

Unfortunately, the University views the matter differently.

When asked about the size of the faculty in light of the new colleges, Yale College Dean Jonathan Holloway was unambiguous.

“The [tenured] faculty is not going to grow,” Holloway said. “It has already grown in anticipation of the new colleges, because they

were supposed to be open already.

The faculty is larger than it's ever been.”

This doesn’t square with what we see on the ground, which is ferocious competition for seminar seats, overworked professors and a troubling reliance on nonladder faculty. And yet we have no choice but to take administrators at their word — they have not provided the numbers that make them so certain they don’t need to hire more professors.

The dearth of information is not our concern alone. English professor Jill Campbell told the News this spring that she was denied access to data on specific areas of faculty growth over the past 10 years. She was told this information was "confidential," she said.

It's one thing for the University to centralize decision-making.

It's a whole other matter to keep the facts so close to the vest that faculty and students cannot even debate or question the decisions being made.

We're left guessing about the effects of outreach and expansion, which the University glady advertises. As Yale seeks to recruit more students engaged in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, we are seeing these

majors face considerable strain.

The computer science department is a case in point. Professor Bryan Ford told the News on Oct. 21: “The degree to which we are understaffed has all sorts of confounding problems.” Other professors and undergraduates have voiced concern that Yale’s small faculty and graduate program in computer science harms the classroom experience.

The problem is not limited to STEM. Some of Yale’s most popular classes are over-subscribed, including sought-after seminars considered capstones of certain majors.

Far too many lectures at Yale are supported by teaching assistants whose area of focus does not correspond to the curriculum. It’s understandable that a specialist in Canadian history might teach a section on U.S. history. But it’s unacceptable for students in history or English classes to be taught by graduate students in the sciences, as is happening this semester.

The new colleges will compound this problem. While enrollment in introductory lectures will rise, there won’t be any proportional increase in the graduate student population.

In a report published by an

ad-hoc committee on the new residential colleges, the committee — which was headed by Provost Ben Polak and Holloway’s predecessor, Dean Mary Miller — advised Yale to develop and institutionalize “non-traditional approaches to section instruction.” These approaches include undergraduates serving as TAs, employing more freshly minted PhDs, making more sections optional and increasing section sizes.

While these proposals might seem appealing from an accounting perspective, we urge Holloway to oppose them. More structural adjustments are required.

We are not asking for a massive increase in the faculty. We are not asking for the duplication of popular seminars. We are not asking for a better allocation of TAs. We cannot make any of these requests because we do not have the information necessary to do so.

These aren’t complicated numbers: seats in a classroom, the size of departments, hiring trends. But taken together, this information bears crucially on the teaching mission of the College.

We call for the release of these numbers before ground is broken on the new colleges in February 2015.

wo Fridays ago, a couple of friends and I went “Trickor-Eating” on Halloween with the Yale Hunger and Homeless Action Project. The event had volunteers trick-or-treating at East Rock, but instead of going door to door asking for candy, we collected canned goods to donate to the Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen. YHHAP had distributed flyers to all the homes in the neighborhood that week explaining what we would be doing and raising awareness for the cause.

All the residents we encountered — from graduate students to grandparents to young families — were extremely receptive to the event, insisting on filling our hands with candy as they rummaged through their pantries for non-perishables. Numerous homes even left full boxes of canned goods on their porches for us to collect. After just one block, our arms were full of boxes and bags of donated food. We were so pleasantly surprised by the kind spirit of the neighborhood; it was refreshing to encounter so many people who were eager to help. It is incredible how generous people will be if you just make it easy for them to give.

In contrast to the residents who donated so much food,

only about 15 volunteers showed up to trick-or-eat, a fraction of the people who were encouraged to help out with the ALLY event. Initially DANIELS I was frustrated by this Taking the lack of effort, chalking it up Back Ally to an overall deficiency in community dedication. But after experiencing the generosity of the residents of East Rock, I realized that often community service is less about whether or not a person wants to help and more about how convenient it is for them to do so.

This reminded me about optimal defaults, a concept that is often discussed in psychology classes. The idea is that rather than having to opt into doing something, people will be more likely to do it if doing that thing is the default, and in order to not do it they have to opt out. This idea operates, at least partially, on the assumption that people are inherently lazy. According to the theory, people will not want

to make the effort to either opt in or out of a certain situation, so instead we should optimize their defaults so that their inaction results in positive behavior.

A prominent example of this is organ donation. While there is a growing shortage of organ donors in the United States, many other countries have combatted this issue by implementing a presumed consent policy. In the U.S., people must volunteer consent to donate their organs while in many other countries, such as Spain, Belgium and Austria, people have to list their objection to donation on a national registry. If they do nothing, they are assumed to be willing donors. The organ donation rates in these countries all increased after implementing presumed consent, suggesting that just by changing the default to being an organ donor, more people will donate their organs than they would have if they need to opt into it.

One study by Felix Warneken and Michael Tomasello probed the nature of infants. In the study, the infants would help adults attain their goals, assisting them with tasks such as fetching outof-reach objects irrespective of whether they would receive any reward or reciprocal favors. This

finding suggests that humans are inherently altruistic. In my opinion, it is not a question of whether or not people want to help feed the hungry or donate needed organs to a transplant patient.

But for the masses to help and for aid to be collected on a largescale volume, it’s necessary that we make it as easy as possible for people to help.

So many of our peers at this institution are passionate about so many different causes. We’re so driven to make a change in this particular field that we forget other students may not share our energy for this particular project. Inertia is powerful and it’s easy for people to be lazy when the cause at hand isn’t their personal pet project. Rather than criticize that tendency, we must work around it, making it as easy as possible for people to help others. The next time, you’re organizing for whatever cause you care about, think outside the box and consider optimizing defaults.

It may seem a pessimistic outlook, but someone needs to carry the cans.

BY RACHEL SIEGEL STAFF REPORTER From Nina Glickson’s ’73 days as a student in Yale’s first four-year cohort of women to her years advising University Presidents Richard Levin and Peter Salovey on student affairs, those who have come to know Glickson strain to imagine campus without her.

For 19 years Glickson worked as assistant to the president, and was made director of correspondence and archives and advisor on student Affairs in July 2013.

While working in Woodbridge Hall, Glickson said she frequently met with students to assess undergraduate life on campus and eventually took over Levin’s correspondence.

Despite having retired on Friday, Glickson said she is not looking to stop working entirely. She said she hopes to continue interacting in some capacity with young people, perhaps high school students, continuing her decades of close interaction with young adults.

“I’m not looking to sever my ties [with Yale],” Glickson said.

“But I thought it was time to really step back and take some stock of what I was doing.”

Before joining the Office of the President in August 1994, Glickson worked in the 1980s in multiple capacities at Undergraduate Admissions and the Association of Yale Alumni, in addition to five

years living in Branford College as what would eventually be named associate master.

For Levin, who worked with Glickson for 19 of his 20 years as President, Glickson’s way of tightening his prose, “always getting the tone pitch perfect” and refusing to let him use any contractions in his letters or speeches were the markings of a great editor.

Sa l ovey sa i d G l i c kson’s knowledge of Yale is unequaled, adding that he was lucky to have her in his office during his transition into office.

Vice President for Global and Strategic Initiatives Linda Lorimer said Glickson’s enthusiasm developing the Woodbridge Fellowship — which brings recent Yale College graduates to work in offices reporting to a university vice president — was an example of her deep connection with undergraduates.

“When Nina came to the President’s Office 20 years ago, she brought her love of Yale College students to the daily work in Woodbridge Hall,” Lorimer said. “There has always been a parade of students into her office in Woodbridge Hall, and I bet she has mentored as many students and young alumni as any faculty member.”

Andrew Klaber ’04, who said he got to know Glickson during his time serving as Yale College Council treasurer, said she was an invaluable resource

whenever YCC needed help gaging the University’s perspective on a student issue.

Klaber said that his bond with Glickson has grown stronger since his graduation and that she has been just as strong a professional mentor as a personal friend.

It was both exciting and trying … I was occasionally the only woman in the class.

NINA GLICKSON ’73 Advisor on Student Affairs Klaber said he was reminded of Glickson’s fortitude one day last year when he was running up Prospect Street on a harsh winter day.

“All the snow was coming down, and no one was around, there were no cars on the street, and who did I see in this black jacket crushing it up Prospect Street?” Klaber said.

“I had no idea who this person was, I look back, and it was Nina Glickson. That’s who she is — nothing can stop her.”

Andrew Cedar ’06 GRD ’07, a former YCC president, said Glickson had been a powerful force in Woodbridge Hall. But, he said, he was never entirely sure what her specific job was.

Cedar said her interest in student life was evident whenever

she cheered from the stands at sporting events or appeared at student performances.

Cedar added he had become so close with Glickson by the end of his senior year that she was the first person his parents wanted to meet when they came to town for his graduation.

Glickson said when she entered Yale as part of the first four-year class to have female students, she was struck by how difficult it was to fully adjust.

“It was both exciting and trying,” Glickson said. “There were classes where I was occasionally the only woman in the class. I wanted to be at a school that had both men and women, but in fact there were people who absolutely were opposed to the admission of women, and some of them were students.”

During her time working for the AYA, Glickson said she was mainly in charge of major domestic Yale clubs, as well as those around the world. Glickson said she took part in alumni trips to East Africa, Hungary, Budapest, Prague, the Galapagos Islands and Vietnam, as well as hikes through the Canadian Rockies and a brief stay in East Berlin.

In addition to her runs up snowy hills, Glickson is a regular competitor in the New Haven Road Race.

Early voting amendment fails

BY NOAH DAPONTE-SMITH CONTRIBUTING REPORTER Connecticut elected a Democratic governor this year, but Tuesday was a bittersweet night for many state Democrats as Question 1, also known as the Early Voting Amendment, failed at the polls.

The amendment, which garnered only 47.5 percent of the vote, would have allowed the General Assembly to expand access to absentee ballots and eliminate most restrictions on early voting in the state. Connecticut is currently one of only 13 states not to allow any form of early voting, whether by mail or in person.

Throughout the country, early voting has often proved a parti-

san issue. Democrats tend to gain from early voting, as demographics more likely to lean Democratic are typically the beneficiaries of early voting.

The amendment’s failure in the Nutmeg State did not come as a complete shock to many Connecticut residents and Yale students. Mila Rostain ’17, a member of the Yale College Democrats who had been involved with the push for the amendment, said she was not surprised by its defeat.

“The people whom it helps are exactly the people who don’t come out in the midterm elections,” Mila said.

The amendment would largely aid ethnic minorities and those with low incomes, for whom voting is typically more difficult, she said, but those groups tend not to

vote en masse in midterm elections.

Jacob Wasserman ’16, the Dems’ Legislative Coordinator, concurred. He said the amendment will likely do better in a presidential election year, when turnout for Democrats is typically higher than in midterm years. He added that he expects to see the amendment on the ballot again.

Not all agreed with that reasoning. The reasons for the amendment’s defeat were twofold, according to Gary Rose, chairman of the Department of Government and Politics at Sacred Heart University.

He identified the unclear language of the amendment as one of the main factors in its defeat.

“The ambiguity of the amend-

ment lends itself to some people pulling back because they didn’t know what it meant,” he said.

Vincent Mauro, the New Haven town chair of the Democratic Party, echoed that sentiment. He said that the amendment’s ambiguity confused many voters — a phenomenon that Rose, Wasserman and Rostain also noted.

Mauro and Rose added that the amendment’s placement at the end of the ballot could have also contributed to its defeat. Fewer people ultimately voted on the amendment than voted for the two gubernatorial candidates.

Rose added that Connecticut already has online voter registration and same-day registration, and some Connecticut residents saw the amendment as going too

far.

Despite these concerns, Mauro said that the amendment is critical to ensure that all people had an opportunity to cast their votes, dismissing claims that the Democrats intended to increase their electoral chances.

“I don’t know if it’s great for the Democrats per se,” Mauro said. “But giving people the opportunity to cast their vote is probably the most important thing we can do.”

He said that the amendment’s failure was overall “extremely disappointing,” underscoring the length of its journey to the ballot.

Two different iterations of the General Assembly were needed to approve the amendment’s appearance on the ballot.

Wasserman remained opti-

mistic about the future of electoral reform in Connecticut. He added that early voting is not the only way to improve the voting process in Connecticut — fixing the problems with same-day registration would also help. Moreover, he said that the re-election of Malloy bodes well for the future.

“Gov. Malloy pushed for Question 1,” he said, “and Gov. Malloy will continue to push to reverse the nationwide trend of restricting voting rights. It will happen eventually.”

In the 2008 presidential election, early voting accounted for 30.6 percent of all votes.

J. Press to rebuild at 262 York

BY CAROLINE HART STAFF REPORTER After initiating the project over a year ago, men’s clothing store J. Press is set to demolish its 262 York St. building and reconstruct a replacement.

Located between Davenport College and Gant, the threefloor building housed J. Press from 1902 until last November, when the company moved to College Street to renovate the 19th century building. After a large snowstorm caused structural damage to the building in early 2013, the city declared it unsafe and J. Press announced its plans to demolish it in January. The project was delayed multiple times, but the building is scheduled to come down

by February and, according to J. Press manager James Fitzgerald, will be replaced by a new J. Press at the same address.

Although Fitzgerald confirmed to the News that the clothing store plans to reconstruct a new J. Press at 262 York, others involved in the project were not aware of this development.

“We have been working with J. Press during their demolition planning to minimize disruption in the area and to our adjacent properties,” Director of University Properties Lauren Zucker said in an email. “We do not know what their future plans for the site will be.”

University Properties owns

268 York, which houses Gant right next door to J. Press.

According to Dan Tomai, CEO and president of Signature Construction — the Brooklyn-based construction company leading the project — the building will be immediately replaced by a steel frame to support the neighboring building with which 262 York shares a wall. The project has been delayed since last November, after J. Press deemed their previous construction contractor unfit for working on a college campus, Tomai said. He added that he was not aware of the future plans for the site.

The announcement about the upcoming demolition comes after the New Haven Preservation Trust has fought for the building’s renovation, rather than demolition.

According to New Haven Preservation Services officer John Herzan, the building is a “rare 19th century second-empire style building” that is registered under the New Haven Historic Resources Inventory.

“All we wanted to do, is have an explanation of why the building could not be renovated,” Herzan said. “The New Haven Preservation Trust regarded the building as a very significant historic resource and was very hopeful that the outcome could have been a different one.”

Herzan said that his board had been monitoring the development of the project for

the past year and had tried to contact J. Press, to no avail. He said the New Haven Preservation Trust was not aware of the plan to build a new J. Press and that the company did not provide an explanation of why the building had to be demolished.

Fitzgerald said that because of severe structural damage, the building was condemned.

Following snowstorm Nemo in February 2013, the building suffered structural deterioration, as determined by city inspectors. After an inspection by city officials, the building was deemed unsafe and qualified for an expedited demolition. J. Press then relocated to 260 College St., with the aid of University Properties.

Fitzgerald added that the building had “not been registered as a historical building,” and that if the deconstruction of the building was a large issue to New Haven residents, there would have been protests.

Gant manager Patrick Harris said that although the beginning stages of construction have not yet affected his business, the project will eventually close the sidewalk, which may affect the store.

“Luckily, we have two side doors,” Harris said.

In addition to New Haven, J. Press has locations in Washington D.C., Boston and New York City.

Four Yale-NUS students to study at Yale

ECOPOND FROM YALE-NUS

While four Yale-NUS students will make their ways to New Haven this spring, Yale-NUS will not host Yale students until its new campus is completed in 2015.

YALE-NUS FROM PAGE 1 from Yale-NUS’s small college setting to a large research university setting like Yale College’s.

“Here at Yale-NUS we’re a small enough community that people have clear roles, people notice when you’re missing and everyone knows everyone. I can imagine myself getting lost at such a large institution [like Yale College],” Stymne said.

Stymne said he hopes to avoid

total anonymity at Yale by making friends with current Yale College students in the dining halls and getting to know other exchange students.

The exchange program is an extension of Yale’s Visiting International Students Program, which has been in existence for four years, Yale College Director of Study Abroad Tina Kirk said.

Vrachnos said for Yale-NUS students, a big draw to the program has been the opportunity

it offers to engage in Yale’s academic and extracurricular activities.

But Kirk noted that it may be difficult for students to begin engaging in extracurriculars halfway through the school year, despite efforts on the part of Yale’s administration to orient the new exchange students.

Joe English ’17 also said it might be difficult for new students to adjust to the extracurricular culture, because of the time-

line of these activities.

“So much for extracurriculars happens during fall semester. It might be difficult for [the exchange students] to integrate into clubs and activities and sports if they want to do those,” English said. “[Extracurriculars are] a huge part of Yale life, so it’s a shame that they’ll miss out on that.”

Kirk said there will be an orientation program for the exchange students to help them get accli-

mated to the Yale College environment. During orientation, the Yale-NUS students will be introduced to the full-year international students, along with faculty members and administrators.

Christopher Tee NUS ’17, who is considering applying to a study abroad program this spring in London, said he has had difficulty choosing between the study abroad experience and staying in Singapore to continue his education at Yale-NUS.

“There’s also a part of me that wants to stay and build the new and small community that is Yale-NUS. Building a school community is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I feel very attached to my new family,” Tee wrote in an email.

There are 320 students currently enrolled at Yale-NUS. Contact PHOEBE KIMMELMAN at phoebe.kimmelman@yale.edu .

Brenzel to leave TD, position on faculty uncertain BRENZEL FROM PAGE 1 to an email sent by Dean of Yale College Jonathan Holloway to the faculty Friday morning.

In his email, Brenzel did not specify whether he plans to remain at Yale after this year. Bob Kennedy ’75, TD’s operations manager, said Brenzel is considering several options and aims to make a decision about his future plans by January.

While Brenzel will definitely step away from his administrative duties, Kennedy said he thinks Brenzel would prefer to remain affiliated with Yale in some capacity.

“It would have to be a pretty good offer to pull him away 100 percent from New Haven and from Yale,” Kennedy said.

Many of Brenzel’s colleagues in the Admissions Office and the on the Council of Masters lauded the work he has done as an administrator.

“I have the utmost regard for Master Brenzel,” Pierson College Master Stephen Davis wrote in email. “His wisdom and leadership have had a tremendously positive impact in the Council of Masters, and I personally have learned so much from the peaceable, profoundly just and heartfelt way he inhabits his role.”

Five TD students interviewed expressed sadness at his decision to step down, as Brenzel had successfully fostered strong bonds within the college during his term. “[Brenzel] creates such a community,” said Amelia Nierenberg ’18.

“He’s my college dad.”

Vanessa Ague ’17 said she will miss Brenzel’s tireless efforts to create a community within TD, citing examples like music nights and his work to fix the buttery.

Abdul-Razak Zachariah ’17, a TD Master’s Aide, said that while he understands Brenzel’s decision, he is disappointed that he will not experience consistent leadership in TD during his four years there.

Another Master’s Aide, Audrey DeVaughn ’17, said Brenzel did whatever it took to win the Tyng Cup for TD. She added that she will miss such a great master.

In addition to his role as TD master, Brenzel teaches philosophy in the Directed Studies Program and a lecture class called “Catholic Intellectual Tradition.”

Carolyn Hansen ’16, who is enrolled in Brenzel’s class, said she

has enjoyed learning from him.

“He’s incredibly well-read and a caring man,” Hansen said. “He recently stayed after section for an hour to talk. He loves history and he loves teaching.”

According to James Woodall ’16, who took “Catholic Intellectual Tradition” last fall, Brenzel led sections in his own home and often invited students to have lunch with him when class had finished. He added that Brenzel was personal, engaging with the students in a way Woodall said he has rarely experienced with other professors.

Ayaska Fernando ’08, an associate director of undergraduate admissions who has known Brenzel since 2008, said that Brenzel was an incredibly approachable boss at the Admissions Office. In particular, he recalled one late evening of work when Brenzel unexpectedly invited him to a hockey game, and said he began calling Brenzel by his first name after working with him for just one year.

Associate Director of Undergraduate Admissions Debra Johns said she greatly enjoyed working with Brenzel, who she described as thoughtful, patient, deliberate, thorough and caring. She added that she used to love to watch Brenzel interact with students’ families.

Davenport College Master Richard Schottenfeld ’71 said that increasing diversity among Yale College students was one of Brenzel’s most outstanding achievements, noting that his efforts towards this goal started during his tenure as dean of undergraduate admissions and continued during his time as TD master. Schottenfeld added that while he will miss Brenzel’s voice in discussions among the masters, he is also excited to get to know and work with whoever is selected to be the next TD master.

“Master Brenzel is one of the most remarkable people I have ever known,” Jonathan Edwards College Master and special assistant to the president Penelope Laurans wrote in an email. “He cares about people — not just people in general, but people in specific. He deeply engages with them.”

STAY/AYA host leadership forum Ground, an international nonprofit that provides children who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS with academic scholarships, basic health care and nutrition in South Africa and Uganda.

The forum’s speakers candidly discussed personal insecurities and failures — innumerable rejections, multi-million dollar loses and close shaves with bankruptcy — as they sought to distill lessons for successful leadership.

Participants interviewed said they were impressed by the quality of the speakers and enjoyed the opportunity to explore the challenges of leadership with a diverse range of Yalies.

BY LIONEL JIN CHENTIAN CONTRIBUTING REPORTER Brought together by a shared hunger to grow as leaders, 70 members of the Yale community convened this weekend to study the essence of leadership.

Held at The Graduate Club, the eighth STAY/AYA Leadership Forum included notable alumni speakers — including a retired Army General and a Business Times “40 under 40” award winner — who shared their personal leadership lessons with the participants.

Over the weekend, the forum’s participants worked in small groups to discuss leadership challenges they faced in their organizations, received advice on potential solutions and formulated strategies to implement these ideas.

“We are tapping into a really deep vein of hunger for leadership training on campus,” said Stephen Blum, senior director at AYA and the forum’s facilitator.

Students recognize these opportunities were challenging to come by outside of Yale, and the forum was founded in 2012 to meet this need, he added.

Unlike other leadership forums, the conference brought together undergraduates, graduates and alumni. Promoting interaction between the three groups brought increased breadth and depth of experience to the table, said Yonghyun Kwon ’17, projects director at STAY and forum chairman. Younger participants could gain insight from those with more experience while older participants benefit from the fresh perspective their younger counterparts offer, Kwon explained.

The team also has worked hard to bring in dynamic speakers from diverse backgrounds, including School of Management professor Thomas Kolditz and Andrew Klaber ’04, who founded Even

Orlando Yarborough SOM ’10 said there is such a rich knowledge and source of leadership at Yale. This conference, he said, brings participants with diverse leadership experiences together.

Over the course of the twoday forum, there were many discussions about what leadership styles are best for different contexts, how leaders differ from managers and why motivations closely influence effective leadership.

The Leadership Forum seeks to ensure the continued leadership development of participants beyond the two days, Blum said.

Organizers said they are planning to hold follow-up forums for participants to continue the conversation, said Stephanie Siow ’17, director of public events at the Leadership Institute, which co-sponsored the forum.

Blum added that the Leadership Forum has yielded a “gold mine” of information – in their applications. The organizers have received over 1,000 responses cumulatively for the eight forums. In the applications, students and alumni described leadership challenges that they have faced and discussed why they care about leadership.

The organizers added that they hope to produce a report on the state of leadership at Yale. Blum said he believes that the amount of data organizers have gathered may even provide insights on leadership trends across years or within particular groups.

The STAY/AYA leadership forum takes place biannually and will next be held in Spring 2015.

YLS conference talks health law

BY NOAH KIM CONTRIBUTING REPORTER Fifty years after the passage of Medicare and Medicaid, and four years after the passage of the landmark Affordable Care Act, the Yale Law School hosted a conference to examine the current state of health law in the United States.

The event consisted of a series of presentations by leading experts in the field of health law, some of whom played crucial roles in designing and implementing the various statutes under discussion. Professor Abbe Gluck said that despite the event’s affiliation with the Law School, she aimed to make it interdisciplinary, and made sure that public health experts, economics professors and history professors were featured as speakers. With the 2010 passage of the Affordable Care Act and continued discussion bringing the subject of health policy to the forefront of national debate, Gluck said she wanted to host an event that analyzed the role that the interaction between Congress, the executive branch and its agencies and state governments played in the evolution of all three health care statutes.

“My intellectual goals were to bring the legal side into this year of 50th anniversary celebrations, to illustrate how rich the conversation can be when we bring multiple disciplines together, and to facilitate more connections across the University on matters relating to health,” Gluck said.

She added that she wanted to analyze the legal aspects of all three laws, which she feels are almost always discussed from a political rather than legal standpoint.

The event itself consisted of five panels and two keynote speeches, which were delivered

by Jonathan Cohn, senior editor at The New Republic, and Ezekiel J. Emanuel, vice provost for global initiatives and chair of medical ethics and health policy at the University of Pennsylvania. Gluck said she chose Cohn and Emanuel as speakers because she wanted to feature non-lawyers from outside of Yale, whose work bridges multiple disciplines.

Alix Rogers LAW ’15 and Claudia Kraft LAW ’15, co-executive editors of the Yale Journal of Health Policy, Law and Ethics, are publishing a symposium issue in conjunction with the conference. The issue will include papers written by 17 of the featured speakers.

“Professor Gluck has really energized the health law program here at Yale, and she’s been very enthusiastic and inclusive of the students,” Rogers said.

“We really had the who’s who of health law here today, and to bring them together in one place so we could interact with them both academically and professionally was really special.”

Gluck invited each of the event’s 30 speakers personally, most of whom she knew as friends and colleagues.

Director for the Yale Health Law and Policy Society Christine Monahan LAW ’16 said she felt that the event was an important landmark for the health law program at Yale.

“It’s not every day that you get to have all of these distinguished people together in one place,” she said.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which include both programs, as well as the ACA health exchanges and the Children’s Health Insurance Program covers more than 100 million Americans.

Elm City Music Fest kicks off

JED FINLEY/CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

The first annual Elm City Music Fest took place this weekend in Hamden, Connecticut, featuring performances, workshops and panels.

BY JED FINLEY CONTRIBUTING REPORTER This weekend marked the first annual Elm City Music Fest, a three-day long concert held in nearby Hamden, Connecticut.

While the organizers of the festival hoped that the event would provide entertainment for concert-goers, the weekend was also an opportunity for artists and the broader public to learn about the business-side of the music industry through afternoon workshops and panels that preceded evening performances. Vic Steffens, owner of Horizon Music Group and one of the organizers of the event, said the weekend was inspired by similar events such as the Liberty Fest in Philadelphia, Penn., and the

Dewey Beach Music Conference in Dewey Beach, Del. He added that the event — which was jointly sponsored by the Philadelphiabased booking and touring company DVT Events — was an opportunity for representatives from the music industry to scout for rising talent.

A 45-year veteran of the industry, Steffens said events such as the Elm City Music Festival can help create a mutually beneficial relationship between artists and record label executives. He added that this was especially important given the rapidly changing landscape of the industry and how the Internet has devalued an artist’s music and made it easy for fans not to have to pay for music.

Over a three-day period, the

festival hosted eight panels and workshops on topics ranging from the relationship between producers and engineers to the logistics behind planning a music tour.

According to the Elm City Music Festival’s website, the panels were not only an educational opportunity for artists but also a chance for them to network among one another and with industry representatives.

Jeanine Moss, lead singer from the Brooklyn-based group J and the 9s and a performer at the festival, said the panels offered an opportunity for artists to learn about one another and might lead to either future collaboration or joint tours.

“A lot of performers are so focused on their art that they

miss the business side of things.

That’s the bottom line behind these shows, the networking,” said Vince Volz, the owner of DVT Events.

He added that music is a competitive business just like any other industry, and too many artists neglect this aspect of their careers.

The festival’s panels boasted some leading figures in the field such as Senior Vice President of RCA Records Bob Anderson, former head of Warner/Chappell Music Alan Tepper and former editor of Billboard Magazine Paul Sacksman.

Volz said such panel guests are influential figures who could directly and powerfully impact a rising artist’s career.

Still, despite these opportunities, artists said they were disappointed with the small audience present at the concert. Nico Rivers, a Boston-based singer-songwriter, said he wished the organizers had promoted the event more aggressively and reached out to local college students. But Moss said she saw the event as more of a networking opportunity with other artists and executives rather than as a performance.

Steffens admitted that he and the fellow organizers could have done a better job promoting the event. He also added that they had not begun planning for the festival until September and will start doing so earlier next year.

Louis deLise, president and chief creative officer of deLise

Studios based out of Philadelphia, said the festival was terrific and that it offered “probably the best music conference panels” compared to similarly sized events in the region.

Most of the artists at the festival were based in the Northeast, but there were also a few bands from California and Tennessee.

Olivia Flocco, lead vocalist in the Philadelphia band The Strange Heat, said the Festival offered the band its first opportunity to travel to Connecticut and meet with record label executives from across the East Coast.

Tickets for one day cost $12 while a three-day pass cost $30.

FROM THE FRONT

“You want to be in a group. You want to be around people, you want to be with people.” THEO ROSSI ACTOR

UWC member: “There are some cracks in the foundation” UWC FROM PAGE 1 media attention.

The member added that while it is not clear exactly how any potential procedural change would be implemented — it could come from within the committee or from the administration — the UWC is a relatively new body that has continued to adapt since its creation.

“I think the general feeling among many members of the committee is that there are some cracks in the foundation,” the member said. “We all find the work we do very valuable, very necessary, but if the way we’re doing it isn’t working or isn’t producing just outcomes, then we need to revisit how we go about things.”

The UWC member said the recent media coverage has done its best to be fair with the material it has been given, but ultimately no one but the people in the room during a UWC hearing can truly understand how any panel reaches a decision.

In an open letter to University President Peter Salovey and the Yale Corporation, which was also printed as a letter in the News on Nov. 6, professor of therapeutic radiology and history of medicine and science William Summers suggested that the UWC implement a second-level appeal committee to review UWC recommendations.

Summers is a former chair of the Executive Committee, which employs a similar process.

University Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Provost Stephanie Spangler could not be reached for comment early Sunday afternoon. Eleven other UWC members also could not be reached for comment.

While some School of Medicine faculty have expressed concerns about the UWC process following the sexual harassment allegations against former cardiology chief Michael Simons, other faculty members interviewed were more optimistic.

“I think that the University-Wide Committee on Sexual Misconduct is a very good thing, and I am glad that Yale has it,” American Studies professor Laura Wexler wrote in an email. “That said, it seems apparent that ideas for improvement might be helpful, and I am pleased and impressed that the

Committee will hold this town hall.”

Of 11 professors contacted, seven declined to comment. Four of those seven said that they were aware of the recent media coverage but did not know enough about UWC procedures to comment.

Sociology professor Jeffrey Alexander acknowledged the difficulties in designing sexual misconduct policies, especially as national conversation about the topic has not yet arrived at any clear consensus.

“This is an extraordinarily complicated issue, not only for this university and others but for the entire nation,” he wrote in an email. “Because cultural expectations about sexuality are changing with such incredible velocity, there is much ambiguity inside of what seems an emerging consensus. It will probably be some time before cultural expectations become transparent and norms become consensual, no matter what policies and laws decree.”

He added that the problems faced by the University in sexual misconduct cases are not specific to Yale’s policymakers or attributable to any malicious intent on their part.

“My sense is that the problems Yale is experiencing are not caused by evildoers,” he said. “Authorities are trying hard to get it right even when they get it wrong.”

Women’s, gender and sexuality studies professor Margaret Homans said she has been following the coverage closely and would be interested in attending a meeting about UWC procedures. She did not comment further, except to “join [her] voice to the general chorus of dismay.”

Overall, the anonymous UWC member said, the town hall will be a valuable opportunity for committee members’ voices to be heard. The member added that it would hopefully help spread the information to the larger campus community.

“It’s important to me that if the committee is visiting its procedures, regardless of what those changes are, I think the student body should be informed,” the member said.

The UWC is composed of 42 students, faculty and staff.

Panhellenic Council looks to add fourth sorority SORORITY FROM PAGE 1 problem at Yale.

“Up until last year, only one or two girls did not receive an invitation to join a sorority,” Leao said. “Whereas the most recent recruitment process turned away 30 girls — enough to fill a pledge class in another sorority.”

The number vying for a place in a sorority has been growing, according to Leao. In 2012– 13, 199 girls signed up for the recruitment process, compared

to 239 in 2013–14. Yen Truong ’15, vice president of recruitment for Yale’s Panhellenic Council, said she feels strongly that anyone who wants to join a sorority should be given the opportunity.

The addition of a fourth sorority would prevent a repeat of last year, she said.

Under this timeline, the new sorority would be in place for the opening of the new residential colleges. Truong said that the influx of female students from the new residential colleges will

further strain the recruitment process.

Sarah Armstrong ’18 said the fourth sorority would provide more options for students during the recruitment process. As someone interested in pursuing a sorority membership, she said her current worry is there is not enough space for everyone.

Leao said the general consensus within the Greek community was that a fourth sorority would be a beneficial addition.

“As a sorority grows, there is

less attention to individuals,” she said. “A fourth sorority would add another good community to campus, and generate more panhellenic spirit.”

However, other students interviewed said there is no need for another sorority like the existing three already on campus.

Kaylan Burchfield ’18 said she is not planning to join a sorority at Yale because the Divine Nine is not represented at Yale. The Divine Nine, according to Burchfield, is the name given to a col-

lection of sororities and fraternities rooted in black heritage.

“Because I am an African American female, I do not believe that I can have the sisterhood that I am looking for or am familiar with seeing because my Greek ethnic group doesn’t exist here,” she said.

Samantha Angle ’18 said the residential college system means she also feels no inclination to rush a sorority. While not entirely opposed to the concept of Greek life, she said she has

been able to find a strong social group without it.

Laurel Lehman ’17 agreed, saying that she had found a strong community of women in her all-female a cappella group, Proof of the Pudding.

“There’s plenty of overlap between Greek life and a cappella, to be sure — but for me, I found that Proof, in combination with some other groups on campus, more than provided the extent of a community I was looking for,” Lehman said.

Armstrong, who participates in a lot of freshman-oriented activities, said she hopes to find the same kind of community in a sorority.

“Most of my extracurriculars are freshmen specific — Freshman Class Council, Freshmen in Service — so the idea of having a group that I would get to be apart of for my entire time here is definitely appealing,” she said.

Samantha Berenblum ’17, a sorority member, agreed with Armstrong, adding that her sorority has allowed her to contribute to various philanthropic activities and sisterhood events.

Berenblum said the success of these events, in addition to a growing fraternity presence, has drawn more attention to Greek life at Yale.

If the Yale Panhellenic Council approves the movement, Leao said there could be a fourth sorority involved in next year’s official recruitment process, which will occur in the spring semester of the 2015–16 academic year.

“For now, we’ll be voting on whether to extend to a fourth chapter or not this semester, and from there we’ll open Yale’s campus to proposals that will come from nationals,” Leao said. “Over the course of the next calendar year of 2015, we would be bringing a fourth sorority to campus and going through informal recruitment to gather the first class of new members.”

Founded in 1985, Kappa Alpha Theta was the first sorority to arrive at Yale.

Yale expands United Way

BY LILLIAN CHILDRESS STAFF REPORTER This month marks the start of the United Way and Yale partnership campaign, an annual fundraiser where Yale employees give part of their paycheck to serve New Haven.

In past years, donations have been made to United Way by faculty and staff via an optional deduction in their paychecks, but this year, students were also encouraged to donate in an email sent out by University President Peter Salovey, the honorary chair of this year’s campaign. In addition, for the first time in at least two years, the University will match faculty and staff donations up to $100,000, according to Joshua Mamis, vice president of community engagement for United Way of Greater New Haven — the local chapter of a national organization that works with New Haven nonprofits.

“We have a very ambitious definition of what we would refer to as a strategy for change,” Mamis said. “We don’t just raise money to give money away — we have specific areas of energy in which we invest money with strategic purpose.”

According to Jim Travers, vice president of development for United Way of Greater New Haven, the group has documentation of a partnership with Yale dating from the early 1990s, but he suspects the partnership began even before then. Travers said that he thinks Yale chose United Way as the main local nonprofit to donate to because United Way focuses on larger issues that plague the whole community and works with partner organizations that help execute United Way’s vision.

Mamis said he believes the relationship between Yale and United Way has been so long-standing because Yale recognizes and

appreciates United Way’s focus on strategic change within the community, and not just charity.

“There is more energy this year, probably on both sides,” said Mamis.

United Way of Greater New Haven focuses on three main areas of support for the community — education, income support and health services. In addition to the yearly donation drive, United Way also partners with certain Yale undergraduate service groups.

For instance, United Way partnered with the Yale Hunger and Homelessness Action Project last year during United Way’s “100 Days to End Homelessness” initiative. In addition to sending volunteers to conduct research on the condition of those who are chronically homeless in New Haven, YHHAP also donated $5,000 to the campaign.

Shea Jennings ’16, current president of YHHAP, said she thinks that United Way’s partnership with Yale has been fruitful because of the diversity of organizations and services that United Way is involved with, as well as the ease with which faculty and staff can donate — taking money directly out of a paycheck is an easy way to harness the willingness to give, said Jennings.

“In partnership with Yale, United Way is making a big difference in the greater New Haven area because of its capacity to bring people and initiatives to bear on some really important local challenges,” said Julie Adams, Master of Calhoun College who donated part of her paycheck to United Way last year.

United Way of Greater New Haven serves a radius of 12 Connecticut towns.

Five performing groups joined together Saturday night in Battell Chapel for a benefit concert meant to increase campus awareness of Ebola and fundraise for disease relief.

Held by the School of Music, the concert featured the Yale Symphony Orchestra, the Yale Concert Band, the Yale Alley Cats, Asempa (!) and Shades of Yale in a night of music and solidarity for the three West African nations affected by the epidemic.

The concert was organized by the Yale Ebola Task Force, a recently formed organization on campus that seeks to engage the Yale community in the current health crisis. In addition to raising financial resources to support Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, the event was also a chance to show students and faculty ways in which they help in the fight against Ebola.

“I believe music brings people together,” said Winnie Wang ’15, a member of both the YSO and the Yale Ebola Task Force.

Wang suggested during the task force’s first meeting that a benefit concert would be a good way to bring together different spheres of the Yale community to tackle Ebola. Along with other students on the task force, she engaged social media and networks in order to get the word out about the concert, and then began to contact groups that she believed might potentially be interested in performing.

According to Branford College Master and Director of the Yale Global Health Initiative Elizabeth Bradley, who also leads the Ebola Task Force, it was easy to find groups willing to take part in the concert, as people want to do all they can to help the cause.

The cost of attendance was $5 for all. Bradley said that the money raised would be donated to major NGOs — including Doctors Without Borders, Partners in Health and Americares — that are working on the ground in West Africa to contain the outbreak.

Especially with ... Ebola ... it is crucial for everyone who wants to help to show solidarity on all fronts.

PATRICK NG ’16 Yale Public Health Coalition Co-President Other sponsors of the event included the Yale Global Health Leadership Institute, the Yale African Students Association and the Yale Public Health Coalition.

“Especially with the Ebola crisis, it is crucial for everyone who wants to help to show solidarity on all fronts,” said Patrick Ng ’16, co-president of the Yale Public Health Coalition. “PHC believes that it is time to take action, and we believe the Ebola Task Force is taking the right

steps in addressing the Ebola crisis.”

PHC, along with other sponsors, helped with publicity, rallied students and spread the word about the event around campus. Ng added that the concert served as a powerful demonstration of nascent campuswide efforts to address the Ebola crisis.

Those in attendance interviewed expressed significant interest in helping stifle the health crisis.

“Ebola is a very important health crisis, and we’ve been focusing on actions in the U.S. when really we need to do more in Africa itself,” health care worker Elizabeth Levy ’06 said.

A resident of New York City, Levy and her husband came to New Haven in order to support the concert’s cause.

The concert, however, is only the first of many events planned by the Ebola Task Force. In the coming weeks, there will be a number of campus events focused on educating, spreading awareness and fundraising for Ebola, Ng said.

“I hope we can sustain this enthusiasm to tackle the tough economic, political and social issues that underlie this and other diseases born of poverty and instability,” Bradley said.

The Yale Ebola Task Force has previously hosted one panel and another talk to increase Ebola awareness on campus.

YHHAP event offers new services

VICTOR KANG/CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

The fourth annual Project Homeless Connect offered services to the homeless in New Haven that they may not always have immediate access to, including dental checkups and legal aid.

BY LILLIAN CHILDRESS STAFF REPORTER Over a hundred members of New Haven’s homeless population gathered in St. Paul’s Church at 57 Olive St. Friday morning, receiving dental checkups, legal aid and other social services.

Sponsored by the Yale Hunger and Homelessness Action Project, the fourth annual Project Homeless Connect offered services that the homeless may not always have immediate access to. Service providers who volunteered included dental hygienists who performed on-the-spot checkups, the New Haven legal aid, representatives from the department of Veterans Affairs, local nonprofit Liberty Community Services and a group

of clinicians who administered blood pressure checks. Also present were representatives from the Yale School of Medicine and hairstylists offering their services free of charge.

“It’s a lot to plan, but it’s really great to see people come and engage with students, as well as see people get these services,” said Jerelyn Luther ’16, one of the event’s co-organizers. She added that this year was the first time that legal aid and veteran services representatives were present.

Another new feature of the event was the free clothing closet — this year supplied by an unlikely sponsor: Yale’s laundry rooms.

According to YHHAP President Julia Calagiovanni ’15, the Yale Sustainability Service Corps has

recently launched a new initiative to remove left-behind clothes in Yale’s laundry rooms and donate them to YHHAP.

It’s really great to see people come and engage with students.

JERELYN LUTHER ’16 According to Jenny Friedland ’17, another co-organizer of the event, one of the biggest challenges leading up to the day of the event was getting the word out to the homeless population — which, according to the 2013

Point in Time Count, is 767 people in the Elm City. Friedland said that the organization advertised the event by putting up posters around New Haven in places such as New Haven Green, and reaching out to partner organizations within New Haven who could inform potential attendees.

Still, organizers say that the event could draw more participants.

“We definitely have the capacity to serve more people,” Friedland said.

Calagiovanni said that turnout at the event can vary significantly from year to year and can be influenced by factors as small as the weather on that day or how well the details of the event traveled by word of mouth.

In order to draw as many par-

ticipants as possible, the event was scheduled from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. Most homeless shelters in New Haven force those staying in the shelter to leave for the day at 7:00 a.m., Luther said.

Friedland estimated that over 75 student volunteers came to the event to offer support, particularly in the form of guiding participants between stations.

Other stations at the event included one with Yale Divinity School students, whom participants could talk to for emotional support, as well as coffee donated by Blue State Coffee and free breakfast. In addition, the morning featured a table of free books and a performance by the Yale Glee Club.

Calagiovanni said that the

necessity of some services provided, such as dental checkups, was not immediately apparent.

“Dental services are never something that anyone thinks is an emergency until you have a big problem, but proper dental care has a big impact on people’s life,” Calagiovanni said.

She added that she thought that the haircut station was one of the most important services offered because a haircut can have a big impact on a person’s selfimage.

According to the Connecticut 2013 Point in Time Count, 7 percent of New Haven’s homeless population are veterans.

SPORTS

“I’ve always seemed to have my best performances when I’m under the most pressure.” AARON RODGERS GREEN BAY PACKERS QUARTERBACK

Varga ’15 overpowers Bears in win

BY GREG CAMERON STAFF REPORTER Thanks once again to the unstoppable legs of running back Tyler Varga ’15, the Yale football team kept its hope for an Ivy title alive with a 45–42 win at Brown on Saturday.

FOOTBALL Varga rushed for a season-best 204 yards on 35 carries, scoring two touchdowns while also setting up a pair of touchdown passes by quarterback Morgan Roberts ’16. In total, Varga was nine-fornine on third and fourth downs for Yale (7–1, 4–1 Ivy).

Unlike in recent weeks, Yale faced adversity early on, as a pair of turnovers initially gave Brown (4–4, 2–3 Ivy) a 20–7 lead — the largest deficit the Elis have seen since their win over Army on Sept.

27. But Yale rallied back midway through the contest by forcing turnovers of its own and resparking its hurry-up spread offense behind Varga.

“It was one heck of a football game,” head coach Tony Reno said. “Everyone who paid to come watch the game today really got their money’s worth … A win here means a lot to us.”

The 45–42 score was the closest game that Yale has played in this season. But the final did not entirely reflect the story of the fast-paced, high-scoring contest, as the Elis traded scores with the Bears for the majority of the second half and almost extended their lead again when they decided to instead run out the clock.

Varga got the ball on every single play of that final drive that was not a quarterback kneel, including a key third-down conversion to give the Bulldogs their final first down.

Of Varga’s 35 attempts, only three of them did not gain yards for the Yale offense, even in shortyardage situations when the entire defense knew the ball was going to him.

“The most incredible thing about Tyler … is not only his keeping his feet moving and punishing defenders, but his balance,” Roberts said. “He’s an unbelievable athlete.”

Brown head coach Phil Estes added that Varga was the decisive factor in the tight game, and that his league-leading statistics are an accurate representation of his dominance.

Varga, meanwhile, humbly credited the offensive line for his success and noted that the sentimentality of his senior year has motivated him in each game.

“I just keep trying to grind out there and run as hard as I can

GREG CAMERON/CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

Running back Tyler Varga ’15 ran for a season-high 204 yards on 35 carries against the Bears. every single carry like it could be my last, because things are winding down here,” Varga said.

“Those guys up front … they never get enough credit. That’s definitely the best offensive line that I’ve ever played for. They’ve got so much heart.”

The Elis netted 520 offensive yards, and their 45 points were by far the most that the Bears have allowed all season. Brown’s 42 points were also significant, however, as the total more than doubled the Bears’ previous average of 20.4 points per game. With 526 offensive yards, Brown was the first team to outgain the Elis in yards this season.

In addition to two consecu-

tive Yale turnovers in the second quarter, the driving force behind Brown’s scoring was the combination of its top two quarterbacks, Marcus Fuller and Seth Rosenbauer.

Rosenbauer started this season as the backup for Fuller, who piled up 393 passing yards against the Bulldogs. But as this season has progressed, Rosenbauer has become a threat as a running back, receiver and wildcat quarterback.

“Brown has the ability to have a balanced attack and do different things in the wildcat scheme,” Reno said. “We had our hands full today, and we were very fortunate that we were able to throw the final punch.”

The pair made Yale’s defense look weak with big gains throughout the game, as Fuller tossed two touchdown passes of more than 25 yards, and another two completions for more than 50.

The Bears also benefited from an early 77-yard touchdown run by Andrew Coke and a muffed handoff between Roberts and running back Candler Rich ’17 that resulted in a 53-yard fumble return and score for Brown.

The Bulldogs also had their fair share of big plays that shifted the momentum in the middle of the game. Rich lessened Brown’s early lead with a 33-yard touchdown scamper in the second quarter, and an extremely unusual touch-

down in the third quarter was the one that put Yale up by two scores for the first time.

After the first of Varga’s touchdowns gave the Elis a 24–20 lead, the Bears tried to run a flea flicker play early on in the ensuing drive.

Linebacker Darius Manora ’17 was blitzing on the play and jumped right in front of the pitch back to Fuller, stealing it in stride and returning the fumble 34 yards to the end zone.

Wide receivers Grant Wallace ’15 and Deon Randall ’15, Roberts’s top two targets, scored the other two touchdowns through the air.

Wallace finished with eight receptions for 123 yards, his sixth game with triple-digit yardage this sea-

son.

Kicker Kyle Cazzetta ’15 nailed a field goal at the end of the first half that wound up being the difference in the Yale victory.

Yale next looks to a home game against Princeton to continue its quest for an Ivy League title.

With Harvard still undefeated and facing a weak Penn squad next week, it is likely that the Crimson will clinch at least a share of the championship in Philadelphia.

But Yale can also secure a share by winning its final two games.

Kickoff against the Tigers is at 12:30 p.m. at the Yale Bowl.

Yale struggles in ECAC openers

BY ALEX WALKER CONTRIBUTING REPORTER The Yale men’s ice hockey team managed to come away with just a single point this weekend after a tie against Clarkson and a 4–0 drubbing at the hands of St. Lawrence.

MEN’S HOCKEY The games marked Yale’s first two conference contests, as well as the first time that the Bulldogs failed to get a win in their opening conference weekend since the 2009–10 season.

On Friday, the Elis faced off

against Clarkson (3–4–3, 1–0–1 ECAC) in a hard-fought game that began with a goal early on in the first period by blueliner Matt Killian ’15. After two goals by the Golden Knights in a 1:29 span in the second period, forward Anthony Day ’15 tied the game up with a quick wrist shot

in the third.

In the tense overtime that ensued, Clarkson largely maintained possession of the puck in the Yale defensive zone, but neither team was able to put the puck in the net and the game ended in a 2–2 tie.

The Bulldogs (1–1–2, 0–1–1)

KEN YANAGISAWA/PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR

The Bulldogs took 43 of 112 total face-offs against Clarkson and St. Lawrence over the weekend.

put 32 shots on goal, compared to just 19 for the Knights. The Elis won the majority of face-offs on the night as well, with 35 to Clarkson’s 27. Goalie Alex Lyon ’17 helped keep the Bulldogs in contention throughout the match, with a few crucial stops in overtime and 17 saves overall.

Defenseman Rob O’Gara ’16, who had four blocks on Friday night, noted that the Bulldogs worked to push the pace against Clarkson.

“I think Friday we competed hard as a team. Our forecheck was very good, and as a result they had limited options in leaving their zone and that led to us having a majority of the possession time,” O’Gara said. “Our competitiveness and willingness to pay the price led to a good comeback tie.”

The result on Saturday night against St. Lawrence (6–3–1, 2–0–0) was decidedly less positive, as Yale failed to put a single shot past Saints’ netminder Kyle Hayton in a 4–0 loss. An early power-play goal from St. Lawrence just 1:51 into the game, along with two successive equalstrength goals in the first period, put the Bulldogs in a hole from the game’s outset.

After Lyon allowed those three goals and registered just five saves on eight total shots in the frame, head coach Keith Allain ’80 pulled the struggling netminder and replaced him with fellow sophomore Patrick Spano ’17.

But still, the Saints put the nail in the coffin with a goal mid-

way through the third period.

Despite out-shooting St. Lawrence with 13 more shots on goal and winning more than double the number of faceoffs, the Bulldogs struggled to produce on offense against the Saints. At the other end of the rink, Spano and Lyon combined for a total of 15 saves on the night.

Forward John Baiocco ’18 said that even though the team was disappointed with the loss, the Bulldogs plan to remain true to the game plan instituted at the beginning of the season by Allain.

“I think we’re pretty confident with the game plan we have,” Baiocco said. “We’re just going to work harder to execute what we already have in place.”

As one of the strongest conferences in collegiate men’s ice hockey, the ECAC is home to the two previous national champions, Yale and Union. Additionally, the ECAC boasts two of the nation’s top eight teams and eight of the top 34, according to the most recent USCHO. com poll. As both players and coaches have noted, the competition will certainly be fierce in Yale’s quest to bring the national title home once again.

The Bulldogs have a pair of conference opponents this weekend, playing at Dartmouth on Friday and at Harvard on Saturday.

Yale strives for Ivy title

Lone senior leads fourth-ranked Elis

BY DANIELA BRIGHENTI CONTRIBUTING REPORTER Returning from a fourth-place finish in a much disputed Ivy League in 2014, Yale’s women’s basketball team members and coaches are optimistic about this year’s team chemistry and their season outlook.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL In the preceding season, the Bulldogs finished fourth in the Ancient Eight, keeping up with their five-year streak of finishing within the top four teams. With an equal number of wins and losses, 7–7, the Elis showed their skill but lacked the consistency to reap better results in conference play.

The Bulldogs were led by Janna Graf ’14, whose presence will be sorely missed on the team. Graf was a key player for high point production: With an average of 9.6 points per game, Graf only

finished behind teammate Sarah Haleijan ’15.

Haleijan will be a significant asset to the Elis this year. With an impressive average of 15.5 points per game, Haleijan started in every game last season and was chosen by fellow Bulldogs as the captain for the 2014–15 season. In addition, Haleijan was selected for the All-Ivy League First Team in both the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons. She was also named Ivy League Rookie of the Year for the 2011–12 season, her first as a Yalie.

Nine other veterans will be alongside Haleijan this season, including two starters from last season — Meredith Boardman ’16 and Lena Munzer ’17. The team captain, however, is the only senior on the team this year — but this does not discourage head coach Christianne Gobrecht.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

BY ASHLEY WU STAFF REPORTER One of the most promising seasons in recent history will begin for the Yale men’s basketball team on Nov. 14, with hopes for a second consecutive postseason berth on the line — as well as a potential Ivy League championship.

The Bulldogs have high expectations to live up to following a successful season in which the Elis finished with an overall record of 19–14 and a 9–5 mark during conference play. Yale finished second among the Ancient Eight and made an emphatic statement with a 74–67 win at Harvard on Feb. 8, the lone conference loss for the Cantabs. The Elis also made a deep postseason run into April, competing in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament. During the tournament, the Bulldogs knocked off four 20-win teams — Quinnipiac, Holy Cross, Columbia and VMI — before falling in the championship game to Murray State.

“Going to the CIT and having a healthy team was a tremendous experience,” head coach James Jones said. “That makes a huge difference for us going forward. They not only think they can, but they know they can win close games … I think the

The Bulldogs finished last season with an impressive postseason run at the CollegeInsider.com Tournament that saw the team play into April, culminating with a narrow loss in the championship game without All-Ivy forward Justin Sears ’16. Yale posted a 19–14 overall record and a 9–5 mark during Ivy League competition. Four of the five losses came in the second half of conference play with point guard Javier Duren ’15 hobbled with a high ankle sprain and missing some action. The team, predicted to finish second in the Ivy League preseason media poll, returns nearly all of its significant players from last season, losing only forward Brandon Sherrod ’16 to the Whiffenpoofs. The Bulldogs may be the only legitimate challenge to Harvard this upcoming season, with losses to injury and graduation deeply hurting other teams. But Yale will need Sears to have another big year and Duren to run the floor well in order to claim its first NCAA tournament postseason berth since 1962.

Brown figures to improve this season following a winning record during last year’s campaign, finishing 15–14 overall and appearing in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament. Brown may have one of the league’s top frontcourts this season, as the positional group features depth with three solid forwards in Cedric Kuakumensah, Rafael Maia and Leland King. The Bears lost only one member of its starting five to graduation, guard Sean McGoangill, but will have a difficult time replacing his 17.4 points per game of production in 37.4 minutes per game. No other player on the team averaged double figures in points per game and only one other player played more than 30 minutes a game. Brown will look for King and guards Steven Spieth and Tavon Blackmon to build on their solid freshman campaigns.

After four consecutive Ivy League championships, the Harvard Crimson is the undisputed favorite in the Ivy League.

But the Yale men's basketball team could very well upset Harvard with strong play from All-Ivy forward Justin Sears ’16 and floor general Javier Duren ’15. Beyond the Elis and Cantabs, however, teams like Princeton and Columbia lurk just outside the spotlight, hoping to play the role of spoiler and sneak into the NCAA tournament on their own.

Dartmouth, pegged for sixth in the Ivy League preseason media poll, finished last year with its best overall record in 15 years: a 12–16 record overall and a 5–9 mark against conference competition. The Big Green returns all but one of its main contributors from last season, losing guard Tyler Melville and his 8.5 points per game to graduation. Last season, Dartmouth was also forced to play all but one game of its Ivy League schedule without forward/center Gabas Maldunas, who was sidelined with a torn ACL. At the time of his injury, he led the conference with 8.5 rebounds per game and the team in scoring at 11.2 points per game. Guard Alex Mitola picked up much of the slack last season, scoring at a clip of 12.8 points per game during the conference season following the loss of Maldunas. Dartmouth will hope that he can again carry the team prior to Maldunas’s return.

PENN

21-9 3 RD [11-3]

Princeton is another dangerous Ivy League team after its 21–9 overall finish and 8–6 record during conference play. Predicted to finish fourth by the Ivy League preseason media poll, the Tigers relied heavily on the three-point shot last year, launching 774 shots from long range. It remains to be seen if the offense can rely on shots from behind the arc given the losses of guard T. J. Bray, the Ivy League’s top scorer at 18 points per game, and forward Will Barrett to graduation. Princeton will also miss forward Denton Koon for part of the season as a result of a recent knee injury. The Tigers will turn to last season’s Ivy League Rookie of the Year, forward Spencer Weisz, to step up. The team also brought in heralded guard Amir Bell, a freshman who is a candidate for newcomer of the year.

PAUL CORMIER

14-14 5th [6-8]

Cornell posted a dismal 2–26 record overall and a 1–13 mark in conference play, with its only Ivy win coming against Dartmouth. The Big Red lost two of its starters, forward Dwight Tarwater to graduation and All-Ivy guard Nolan Cressler to Vanderbilt as a transfer. Cressler was the team’s top performer last year, averaging 16.8 points per game and 32.6 minutes per game. Two of the three remaining starters, however, were freshmen last season who will look to build off a strong first collegiate season. Guard Devin Cherry returns for his senior season after averaging 32.4 minutes per game and 12.3 points per game last year. More importantly, Cornell returns forward Shonn Miller, a first team All-Ivy player his sophomore season and Rookie of the Year as a freshman, who missed all of last season with a shoulder injury. Guard Galal Cancer also comes back for his senior season after taking last year off, which will help replace some of Cressler’s lost minutes.

DARTMOUTH

Harvard has garnered national attention early this season following its No. 25 ranking in the Associated Press preseason top 25, the first time an Ivy League school has appeared in the preseason poll since the 1974–75 season. For the second straight year, the Crimson is the unanimous favorite to win the Ivy League after posting an overall record of 27–5 and 13–1 against conference opponents last season, when its only loss came at home to Yale. Harvard also made an impressive run to the Round of 32 during last year’s NCAA tournament as a No. 12 seed, knocking off the favored Cincinnati Bearcats in the Round of 64. This season features the return of swingman Wesley Saunders, the reigning Ivy League Player of the Year, and guard Siyani Chambers, a preseason all-Ivy selection. But the Crimson will also have to fill the shoes of departed seniors Laurent Rivard and Brandyn Curry, both of whom occupied spots in the starting lineup last year.

Penn, picked second in the Ivy League preseason media poll just a year ago, dropped to seventh this year following a rough season where the Quakers finished 8–20 overall and 5–9 during conference play. The team has a difficult season ahead of it, returning only two players that averaged more than 20 minutes in a game — guard Tony Hicks and center Darien Nelson-Henry. Outside of Penn’s top four players last year, two of whom have graduated, no one managed to score more than 5.1 points per game, pointing to a weak bench and limited rotation. The Quakers will have to hope that one of their six freshmen can rise to the occasion and replace some of the lost production. Otherwise, Penn can look forward to a third consecutive losing season only years after it finished second in the Ivy League with an 11–3 conference record in 2011–12.

Columbia finished last season with an impressive 21–13 overall record while posting an 8–6 record in the Ivy League. This was the team’s first 20-win season since the 1969–70 campaign, and the Lions made it to the CollegeInsider.com Tournament quarterfinals, where they fell to Yale. Columbia was slated to finish third in the Ivy League preseason media poll, but with the injury-related departure of forward Alex Rosenberg, a preseason all-Ivy selection, it is unclear where the team now stands. The Lion’s lineup still features guard Maodo Lo, another member of the preseason all-Ivy team, who led the team with 32.2 minutes per game last year and was second in scoring at 14.7 points per game. The Lions also lost guard Meiko Lyles from last season’s year-end starting five. Meiko has decided to withdraw from the program, and Columbia will look to replace his minutes with the team’s guard depth.

“If you meet the Buddha in the lane, feed him the ball.” PHIL JACKSON 13-TIME NBA CHAMPION

Sears aims to soar in 2014–15 SEARS FROM PAGE B4 a freshman.”

Last season, Sears made the jump from one of the best rookies in the Ivy League to one of the best players in the conference.

His stats jumped dramatically across the board, highlighted by finishing in the top five in the league in scoring and rebounding.

Perhaps as impressive was how Sears managed to ramp up his production during conference play. Over the course of the 14-game gauntlet that decides the Ivy League champion and recipient of an NCAA tournament berth, Sears tied for the league lead in points per game at 19.5, led the Ancient Eight in rebounds per game and also averaged two blocks per game, second among all Ivy players.

For me to get more recognition, it comes down to team success … [which] means beating Harvard.

JUSTIN SEARS ’16 Forward Armani Cotton ’15 has spent the past two summers playing alongside Sears, in addition to their time together at the John J. Lee Amphitheater, and he spoke of Sears’s work ethic and ability to lead the Bulldogs.

“Knowing how hard he’s worked and the talent that he has, I’m ready to go to battle with him over anybody else any day,” Cotton said.

Though Sears did earn a muchdeserved spot on the All-Ivy first team, the fact that his selection was not unanimous — the AllIvy teams are voted upon by the head coaches of the Ivy League — made many of his teammates unhappy.

Unsurprisingly, the preseason

media opinions are relatively split as to who will claim Player of the Year this season, but multiple media outlets, including NBCSPORTS.com, have designated Sears as the favorite.

“Well, the man tied for the league in scoring, led the league in rebounding and was second in blocked shots,” Jones said. “In my mind, it’s hard to make an argument that he isn’t the best player in the league.”

With just days remaining before the beginning of the 2014– 15 campaign, Sears found himself snubbed yet again by the media.

Beginning on Oct. 29, ESPN began revealing the top 100 players in college basketball. Two players were recognized from the Ivy League — the aforementioned Saunders at No. 46 and a fellow Crimson playmaker, guard Siyani Chambers, at No. 34.

But Sears’s name was noticeably absent from the list.

“I try not to put too much weight on what the media says, but it’s definitely bulletin board material,” Sears said. “As much as I did last year, I’m still not getting any recognition. But for me to get more recognition, it comes down to team success, and team success means beating Harvard because Harvard’s always in the papers.”

What gets lost amid Sears’s flashy numbers and his highlight reel — Sears’s monster dunk over Harvard on March 7 was featured on ESPN SportsCenter’s top-10 plays of the day — are his contributions on the defensive side of the ball.

Although his game is most easily recognized by his efficient offensive play around the paint, Sears’s athletic ability and length makes him a nightmare for opposing offenses. His versatility as a defender allows Sears to match up with just about anyone on the floor, from point guards to centers.

“My defense is overlooked tremendously … Maybe even Defensive Player of the Year would be a

nice award, to receive some more appreciation on that side of the floor,” Sears said.

Preseason honors have continued to accumulate for Sears despite a partially torn ligament in his right wrist slowing down his off-season plan to improve his outside shot. The injury was suffered on a fall during one of Sears’s characteristic high-flying moves to the hoop during last season’s Collegeinsider.com Tournament semifinal.

With Sears unable to suit up for the championship game, the

Bulldogs were unable to muster enough offensive production to overcome Murray State, losing 65–57.

But a play from earlier in that tournament may speak to what could potentially separate Sears from his peers, more so than quick post moves from the short corner off the block — his favorite spot on the court — or countless swatted shots at the rim.

Trailing by two points and with 7.2 seconds remaining in the opening round against crosstown rival Quinnipiac, Sears faced up

his defender, created some separation and banked home a threepointer to advance the Bulldogs while sending the Bobcats packing.

The three-pointer was only the fourth of Sears’s career.

Asked how he would handle a similar hypothetical situation against Harvard this year, Sears’s response left no doubt as to whether he has the confidence in himself to lead Yale to its first NCAA Tournament since the 1961–62 season.

“Take the three to go for the

win or drive the ball and kick to one of my teammates — I know for sure I’ll definitely have the ball in my hands and will try to make the right play,” Sears said.

Sears only has to wait a few more days to put his skills back on display, and his first opportunity will come against a familiar foe.

Yale opens its season on Nov. 14 at Quinnipiac as part of the sixth annual Connecticut 6 Classic.

Justin Sears ’16 shot 69.7 percent from the free-throw line last year, draining the most free-throws per game on average at 5.3.

Halejian leads on the court HALEJIAN FROM PAGE B4 have fit right in with the team and played well from the very beginning.

When asked about her growth as a team member in the past three years, Halejian noted her relationship with Gobrecht as the most transformative.

“In my freshman year, I was super quiet and it was hard for her to know what I was thinking,” Halejian said. “Now we have a completely open line of communication, which is really impor-

tant for me as a captain.”

As for many other student athletes, adjusting to Yale freshman year proved difficult for Halejian.

Now, Halejian believes that she has found the balance between a rigorous academic schedule and a hectic athletic regimen.

Halejian’s soft-spoken nature and ability to adjust to the rigors of Yale help her lead the Bulldogs.

“I would say she leads by example,” guard Nyasha Sarju ’16 said. “She can be soft-spoken but she puts the team first, and she sacrifices a lot in terms of

her own personal gain just to get everybody involved. She brings so much [to the table].”

For instance, Halejian focuses on resting more during the week in anticipation for competition on the weekends.

Halejian attributes her competitive nature in basketball to playing with her siblings at a young age. Growing up with an older brother and an older sister, Halejian remembers consistently losing to her siblings while playing basketball on the driveway.

In retrospect, those losses have

molded her into the competitive player she is now.

“I owe a lot of my career to [my siblings],” Halejian said.

The Wyckoff, New Jersey native said that studying at Yale has broadened her horizons.

Having grown up in a suburb that was not very diverse, Halejian said that she loves interacting with Yalies of all interests and backgrounds on a daily basis.

“We all [came to Yale] driven and motivated … but [Yale] has helped me become even more so,” said Halejian.

Looking ahead, Halejian hopes to go overseas for a year or so after Yale, but due to eligibility reasons she cannot begin the application process until after season.

Ultimately, she aspires to find an agency and play professional basketball for a team. If Halejian is unable to play in the professional ranks, she said she still hopes to land a job in sports and work in a field that makes her happy.

When asked about her thoughts on the basketball team after she graduates, Halejian said that the team is definitely set up

to be successful in the coming years. She especially accredits the coaches for their stacked recruiting year after year.

“I just think that our coaches know exactly how to recruit and who to recruit,” Halejian said.

“I am impressed how well the coaches recruit and how well they sell Yale [to them].”

The women’s basketball team will play its first game against St. John’s on Nov. 15 at Yale.

“You can’t be afraid to fail. It’s the only way you succeed – you’re not gonna succeed all the time, and I know that.” LEBRON JAMES PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYER

Bulldogs aim to improve season outlook WOMEN’S BBALL FROM PAGE B1 said. She also expressed her full confidence in the younger team members.

Haleijan is of a similar opinion, adding that there are solid upperclassmen in the junior class who are able to help her lead the team effectively.

Boardman, for instance, appeared in all 28 games of the season and started in 21 of them.

She ranked 12th in the Ivy League with 5.5 rebounds per game, an all-team high.

Joining veteran Bulldogs this year are four freshmen from around the country — guards Clara Mokri ’18, Mary Ann Santucci ’18 and Tamara Simpson ’18, as well as forward Jen Berkowitz ’18.

Gobrecht expressed her confidence that this year’s freshman batch was a talented one, and that the team’s chemistry was strong from the get-go.

“I have never been a part of a team that I have enjoyed more than this one so far,” Santucci added. “Everybody really puts the team before themselves and genuinely cares about how other people on the team are doing.”

The freshman explained how all the team members were very welcoming to the incoming freshmen, both on and off the court, which helped foster a strong team community from the start of pre-season.

Throughout the pre-season, coaches had the Bulldogs focusing on getting in great shape.

Gobrecht said that her intent was to lay down the defensive and offensive foundations that would be built on throughout the season, as well as develop the players both physically and mentally for the season’s start.

She has been developing training plans alongside new additions to this year’s coaching staff. Assistant coach Clare Fitzpatrick was joined by both Stacy McIntyre and Brandon Gade as part of the team’s staff. McIntyre has previously coached Division I women’s basketball for 10 years, seven of which were under Gobrecht at the University of South Carolina. Gade also has significant previous experience with women’s collegiate basketball. His last post was as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Albertus Magnus, a Division III school.

The women’s basketball team racked up 1836 total points across 28 total games last season. hearing from the players, they are very happy with our coaching staff this year,” Gobrecht said.

“We have a great mix of enthusiasm with experience, and every coach on this staff is absolutely dedicated to the players on this team.”

The head coach is convinced that the team this year is “just better” than last season’s, and that her greatest challenge will simply be to figure out how to

use the various strengths of different players this year — effectively meshing those strengths into a consistent game plan.

The competition, however, will be tough. Last year’s top contenders Princeton and Penn were once again placed at the top two spots in the pre-season’s coaches’ poll. Harvard ranked third — just one spot above Yale.

Both Harvard and Penn show significant changes in their

teams from last year, but Princeton’s team brings an impressive 13 returners, including four starters from last season.

Captain Haleijan is very aware of the fact that all the usual teams in the Ivy League should be back in full force again, but is confident that even though Yale was predicted to finish fourth in the league, that the team is competitive with Harvard, Princeton and Penn.

“We have all the pieces we need to have an extremely successful year,” Haleijan said.

Haleijan has extra motivation this year. As a senior, it’s her last chance to win an Ivy League championship, a personal goal of hers.

This might just be the year for Haleijan. Yale’s strong set of returning players and good number of talented new faces has proved to be a powerful mix.

“Rome and Ivy Champions aren’t built in a day; this team has the ingredients for developing the championship mind set necessary to ever be champions,” Gobrecht said. “That’s what we’re after.”

The first game of the season for the Bulldogs will be on Nov. 15 at home against St. John’s.

Elis hope to build off 2013–14 MEN’S BBALL FROM PAGE B1

Guard Armani Cotton ’15 averaged 5.4 rebounds per game last season, second-most on the team.

guys have a lot of confidence and hopefully it’ll carry over to the start of this year.”

Point guard Javier Duren ’15 agreed, saying that the team beat Harvard last year because it believed it could win. He added that confidence, coupled with the Elis’ experience, will make them a hard team to beat.

Yale, predicted to finish second in the Ivy League preseason media poll, returns nearly all of its significant players from last season. An experienced group of upperclassmen will lead the Elis this year, as all players who averaged more than 20 minutes other than forward Brandon Sherrod ’16 return as juniors and seniors.

This experience will be key for the team in its quest for the conference title and to topple Harvard, the No. 25 team in the nation.

“We have a really great opportunity this year because we have everyone returning from our starting five,” guard Armani Cotton ’15 said. “Guys know the playbook a little bit better, and it helps the new guys get quickly integrated into what we are doing because we have more than one leader on the floor at a time. Repetition is key for doing anything at a high level.”

The Bulldogs have a trio of seniors from last year’s starting lineup in Duren, Cotton and forward Matt Townsend ’15, all of whom figure to play major roles this season. Duren, the only player on the team other than Sears to see more than 30 minutes per game last season and to score in double figures with 13.6 points per game, was an honorable mention All-Ivy selection and will be a key piece for the Elis. The floor general averaged

3.1 assists per game to go along with his prolific scoring, and he will look to take another step forward this season.

Leading the charge along with the senior trio is forward Justin Sears ’16, a first team All-Ivy selection last season and a player of the year candidate for this season. Sears looks to build upon an impressive sophomore campaign in the frontcourt where he led the team with 16.9 points per game while averaging 30.6 minutes.

Not only a force on offense, Sears led the team with 1.9 blocks per game on the defensive end and 6.9 rebounds per contest. Fellow classmate Nick Victor ’16 also returns to the backcourt to round out the starting five.

“If we’re going to get to where we want to get to, it’s going to take a team effort,” Duren said.

“I think we’re starting to realize that, and based on our success from last season teams are starting to key in on [Sears]. It’s up to the other guys to step up and fill their roles.”

Many returning players spent hours in the gym over the summer and have improved, according to Jones. Guard Jack Montague ’16 and forward Sam Downey ’17 were singled out by the coach as two who have impressed him in the Elis’ short preseason.

In addition to a strong core of returning players, the Elis will add a quartet of freshmen: guards Makai Mason ’18 and Landon Russell ’18, swingman Eric Anderson ’18 and forward Sem Kroon ’18. Though few freshmen have played large roles for the Bulldogs during Jones’s tenure, Jones insists that that all will have a chance to see action on the court.

“They all have an opportunity,

and we’ll see where our needs are,” Jones said. “We have 15 guys on the team, and I suspect that most every guy is going to have a chance to prove themselves.”

One point of emphasis, according to Jones, is the team’s assist-to-turnover ratio. There was only one team in the entire country that won a conference championship with a negative ratio, and so the team will look to its primary ball handlers — Duren, Victor and Montague — to improve in taking care of the ball.

During the offseason, the Bulldogs also added Anthony Goins to the coaching staff as an assistant coach. He spent last season in Hanover as an assistant coach for Dartmouth, his first collegiate coaching experience. Prior to aiding the Big Green to their best finish in 15 years, Goins saw success as an assistant coach for Salisbury Prep School.

“It’s nice to have a fresh voice in the locker room,” Jones said.

“He brings a lot of energy and experience along with a desire to win.”

Together, the team will face a challenging nonconference schedule as it prepares for competition against a deep Ivy League. Less than a month into the season, the Bulldogs will face the defending national champions and preseason No. 17 team Connecticut. The Elis will then travel to face Florida, the seventh ranked team in the nation and consistent Southeastern Conference power, just three days later. Yale rounds out its nonconference schedule with another game against an SEC opponent Vanderbilt and numerous other teams in the northeast region.

The Ivy League schedule will also be difficult, as it ends with a treacherous road trip to Harvard

and Dartmouth to close out the regular season.

“I do know that for 14 straight years, we’ve been in the top half of the league, and I think that a lot of that is due to our nonconference schedule exposing us to things that we need to make sure that we work on,” Jones said. “I think that playing really good teams helps you prepare for our league. We have another very good conference this year, and we’ll have to play well to be successful.”

Duren agreed, saying that the team’s slate of games before Ivy League play serves as a measuring stick for where the team stands.

He added that Ivy League play is especially important because the lack of a conference tournament means that each game directly determines which team goes to the NCAA tournament as the Ivy League’s automatic representative.

Though there are plenty of obstacles this season that the team will have to hurdle, it could be a magical season for the Bulldogs as they seek their first NCAA tournament appearance since 1961–62 and share of the Ivy League crown since 2001–02.

“This could be our best opportunity,” Sears said. “We know if we’re going to win, now is the time to do it … We know we belong this year, and if we put it all together, I think it puts us over Harvard.”

Yale opens its schedule against familiar foe Quinnipiac, whom the Elis defeated 69–68 in the first round of the CollegeInsider. com Postseason Tournament last year, on Nov. 14 in the Connecticut 6 Classic.

“When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.” MAGIC JOHNSON FIVE-TIME NBA CHAMPION

All-Ivy forward leads Bulldogs

BY JAMES BADAS STAFF REPORTER Yale men’s basketball All-Ivy forward Justin Sears ’16 very well could have been known as a forward from Vermont or Boston University or Stanford.

MEN’S BASKETBALL Sears received nearly 30 scholarship offers from more traditionally sports-focused universities spanning the nation, who each hoped that a free education would tempt the 6-foot-8 Plainfield, New Jersey native into signing with their respective programs.

Ultimately, a bevy of factors including “the weight of a Yale degree” and “seeing such an impressive class of play-

ers above me” enticed Sears — who received the nickname “Too Tall” from his high school history teacher after hitting his head on a locker as a freshman — to take his talents to the Ivy League as a Yale Bulldog.

For a star that did not start playing basketball until the eighth grade, it’s only fitting that he describes his style as “unorthodox.” But Sears’s unorthodox game has been a perfect match with Yale ever since his arrival to the Elm City.

Although freshmen have been known to take a back seat during coach James Jones’s tenure, Sears made an immediate impact for the Bulldogs. During his freshman campaign, he ranked second on the team in points per game at 9.5, while also leading the way in rebounding with 4.3 per game.

To put those numbers into perspective, no freshman has matched Sears’s rebounding average over Jones’s 15 years at the helm of the Bulldogs. Additionally, one would have to trace back to the 2001–02 season to find a freshman who tallied more points in his initial campaign with Yale, when guards Edwin Draughan ’05 and Alex Gamboa ’05 each averaged double digits for the Elis.

“You don’t normally expect anybody as a freshman or sophomore to lead your team,” Jones said. “In terms of a leader as one of our better offensive players, one of our better defensive players and one of our best shotblockers, I certainly felt that he could contribute to being that as YALE DAILY NEWS

Captain Sarah Halejian ’15, the lone senior, led the Elis in points per game last season with a 15.5 ppg average.

Entering this season with 1,047 career points — an average of 12.5 points per game — Halejian now stands 16th on the career scoring chart in program history. In her past three seasons at Yale, Halejian played in 84 games with 78 starts and is currently on a streak at 73 consecutive starts.

“We may only have one senior,

but she’s a good one,” head coach Chris Gobrecht said.

Although Halejian said she usually does not set goals for herself to avoid unneeded pressure, she hopes to win the Ivy League Championship in her last season at Yale. The team has not won the championship once in the last three years Halejian has been with the Bulldogs.

An added pressure this year: The team expects Halejian to fulfill her role as a leader.

“With [being] captain comes a lot of responsibilities that I never had in the past,” Halejian said.

Among other things, Halejian realizes that she needs to be a leader both on and off the court.

However, she mentions that the close-knit nature of the team will not make this a burden, adding that the freshmen this year SEE HALEJIAN PAGE B2

DARTMOUTH The Ivy League is going through changes. With several coaches in their first several years at the helm, any Ivy team could rise or fall. This variance is an inevitable factor in the 2014-15 season. The pre-season media poll placed Penn and Princeton at the top of the heap. But leadership from captain and lone senior Sarah Halejian ’15 gives the Bulldogs a powerful weapon that helped gain the Bulldogs a fourth place preseason ranking.
