UPD begins search for indecent exposure suspect

The University Police Depart-ment is searching for a man who exposed himself two different times on campus Thursday. The inci-dents occurred within five minutes of each other Thursday around 8:30 a.m.

UPD Chief Calvin Sellers urged members of the community to be on the lookout for any suspicious activity.

“I would just tell everyone to call us if they see anything strange go-ing on,” Sellers said. “Be aware of your surroundings and try not to be alone, especially at night.”

The suspect is described as a black male in his early 20s, between 5-feet-6-inches and 5-feet-8-inches tall and approximately 250 pounds, according to a UPD release that was emailed to all students, faculty and staff members at Ole Miss. He was wearing a gray beanie Thurs-day, has shoulder-length hair and was driving a blue or black older model Cadillac De’Ville, Buick or Oldsmobile.

In August 2011, a white male was arrested for similar crimes on campus. He exposed himself on campus three times over two days and was arrested shortly after. Sell-ers said that these two incidents are not related in any way, and there is no regular pattern of similar inci-dents on campus.

According to the 2013 Missis-sippi Code, “a person who willfully and lewdly exposes his person, or private parts thereof, in any public place, or in any place where others are present, or procures another to so expose himself, is guilty of a mis-demeanor and, on conviction for a first offense, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $500 or be im-prisoned not exceeding six months, or both.”

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Wash-ington, D.C. nominated two University of Mississippi musical theater students for outstanding performance awards for their performances in “The Laramie Project.”

Junior BFA student Nathan Burke of Keller, Texas, and sophomore BFA student Rachel Staton from Atlanta were nomi-nated based on their individual ensemble as actor and actress in the play, originally performed last fall on campus.

The play is about an openly gay

male who was murdered in Lara-mie County, Wyo.

The awards are part of the 46th annual Kennedy Center Ameri-can College Theater Festival, which was developed by Roger L. Stevens in 1969 to encourage and celebrate theatrical productions nationwide.

Burke and Staton will receive the awards next month at the closing ceremony of the festival April 19 in D.C.

“This is very exciting,” said Rene Pulliam, interim chair and associate theater professor. “Think of it as The Tony Awards for college theater.”

Burke and Staton recently trav-eled to Roanoke, Va., with the

production of “The Laramie Project” and the Kennedy Cen-ter American College Theater to perform the play for evaluation in the festival. It is rare for two students from the same school to be chosen for the same award, ac-cording to Pulliam.

Burke said he grew up loving movies and performing and loved to act out his favorite scenes from the movie “Dumb and Dumber.” During his time at Ole Miss, Burke has been cast in nine shows, including both main stage shows for the university and Ghostlight Repertory Theatre shows.

“He is a gifted performer who brings something special to all he does,” Pulliam said.

Staton grew up acting in school plays and participated in theater throughout high school. Staton was cast in the play “Urinetown” her first year as an understudy, but she did not land her first big role until “The Laramie Project.”

“She excels in comic timing and character work,” Pulliam said.

Both students said they were honored to receive the nomina-tions for the awards.

“Of course I was ecstatic, flat-tered and completely floored be-cause I did not expect it a single bit,” Burke said.

Staton was similarly surprised.“I still cannot believe this hap-

pened to us,” Staton said. “Na-

ADVERTISING STAFF: While Ole Miss continues to struggle with the racial en-vironment on campus (and, no, spring break was not long enough for anyone to forget about February’s hate crime), another social issue poisons campus, and, if you can be-lieve it, is even less subtle: xe-nophobia.

Xenophobic attitudes pre-vail inside classrooms and materialize as harsh criticism of foreign professors. Some professors born outside of the United States are consistently harassed and mocked by stu-dents, who, having been born in a cardboard box, suffer the grand injustice that is their professor having a strong ac-cent and who may struggle with expressing themselves

well in English.Saying that your profes-

sor’s accent is the reason your grade is low is a pretty ter-rible excuse. I don’t know any professor who doesn’t utilize his or her office hours or who wouldn’t take the time to re-peat instructions if you asked him or her to do so.

Further, nothing taught to you in a textbook is the exclu-sive knowledge of a singular professor — there are tons of resources, from tutoring to the Internet, available to carry you on the blessed, refreshing breeze to the mountaintop of academic success. Resting in mediocrity and folding your-self into closed-mindedness like a little bigoted paper swan just won’t get you anywhere.

The purpose of attend-ing a university, as my friend Charles aptly put it, is to ex-perience things that broaden

your perspectives and make you smarter. This is an institu-tion of higher learning, after all, and one that, despite some students’ never-ending efforts to ruin this perception, does hold intelligence in high re-gard, whether or not that gift is better wrapped in another language besides English.

More likely than not, your foreign professor brought a Ph.D. to this university. All you have is an ACT score and a high school résumé. Have a seat. Listen to people. Know that people who don’t look and sound like you can teach you something valuable.

It’s heartbreaking to me to know that these talented, well-traveled, extremely dili-gent academics have to suf-fer patronizing attitudes from young people who needed only a pulse to be accepted into this school in the first

place. It is not the raggedy, adolescent, entitled hoi pol-loi idling through college who make The University of Mis-sissippi the esteemed educa-tional institution it is. It is not Greek life, Oxford nightlife or even our athletics programs.

Some of the faculty and staff who teach and research here are world-renowned au-thors, scientists, philanthro-pists and thinkers. Some of them are not fluent in Eng-lish. And those who work for the university whose posi-tions here aren’t necessarily academic, such as secretaries, custodians and food workers, deserve to be treated with dig-nity as well.

All of them deserve your re-spect.

than is a truly gifted actor, and I am honored to be recognized on the same level as him,” Staton said.

“The Laramie Project” cast worked extensively with their di-rector Rory Ledbetter on the play, in which Burke and Staton played multiple roles.

Last fall, the theater depart-ment’s production of “The Lara-mie Project” made national news headlines when members of the audience, including an estimat-ed 20 Ole Miss football players, openly disrespected and disrupted the production by shouting de-rogatory slurs and heckling the cast members on stage. The inci-dent was followed by a series of

talks and seminars as Ole Miss ad-dressed the issues of diversity and acceptance of others.

Burke said he found the contro-versy of the incident fascinating in many ways.

“I really believe it happened so that we could learn that we do have a place here at the university, and we do have the backing of not only the Oxford community but the community of theater artists throughout the country and the world,” Burke said.

Both students said they were overwhelmed and appreciative of the amount of support shown across the country after the inci-dent, something that they both agreed has made them more se-cure as actors.

“The ‘scandal’ simply proved to me why I do what I do,” Staton said.

Associated Student Body of-ficers will travel to D.C. to meet with state representatives and sen-ators as part of the SEC in D.C program.

SEC in D.C. is a week for which leaders from student governments in the Southeastern Conference travel to Washington, D.C. While there, they meet with their respec-tive senators and representatives. The purpose of the week is to give students the opportunity to talk about their universities and lobby for whatever needs their universi-ties might have.

ASB President Gregory Alston and Vice President Morgan Gregory, as well as president-elect Davis Rogers and vice president-elect Emerson George, will travel to D.C. on the university’s behalf.

Alston said he is looking forward to speaking with the congressmen and their roles in improving high-er learning institutions.

“I am excited that we have the opportunity to meet with our elected officials about the im-portance of higher education,” Alston said. “I think this is a great opportunity for the students at each SEC school.”

Alston said the Ole Miss ASB officers will be working with the student government leaders from Mississippi State University as they meet with congressmen from Mississippi.

“Throughout the week, we, along with the group from Mis-sissippi State University, will be meeting with Senator Roger Wicker, Senator Thad Cochran, Congressman Gregg Harper, Congressman Alan Nunnelee, Congressman Steven Palazzo and also Senator Trent Lott,” Alston

said.Gregory said she is glad the

SEC student governments have the opportunity to work together and learn from one another.

“The SEC student govern-ments have a great network to-gether,” Gregory said. “We face many of the same issues and op-portunities, so it’s always nice to get together and talk about ini-tiatives we’ve been working on and setbacks we’ve been working through. We learn a lot from each other.”

dia Thursday, Sellers stressed the importance of trying to keep the public informed during incidents

like this. “We have an obligation to alert

the community of potential dan-ger,” he said. “The crime alerts we send out are meant to keep people aware of what is going on in order to keep them safe.”

“I can do it, if I try,” Holli Ru-bin said, when asked what her favorite line in the “Three Billy Goats Gruff ” musical is.

Rubin is an expert on the subject, as an actress with and co-founder of Bits ‘N Pieces GIANT Puppet Theatre. “The Three Billy Goats Gruff ” is one of its productions and will be held at 3 p.m. Saturday at the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts. When a mu-sical is performed with larger-than-life puppets, the energy must be absolutely animating.

“That’s the theme, that’s the whole idea,” Rubin said. “People can watch this musical and know that they can make the best of their situation and make a dif-ference. There’s just a lot of en-ergy.”

The story revolves around the age-old tale of three goats trying to cross a bridge, beneath which a troll lurks. Bluff Gruff, Fluff Gruff and Big Tuff Gruff must work together to best their obsta-

cle: troublesome but silly, bridge-dwelling Upchuck the Troll.

“Anyone who loves the arts, puppetry, music and costumes will enjoy themselves,” Rubin promised.

Ford Center marketing direc-tor Kate Meacham is confident that the troupe will put on a great show.

“We choose shows based on whether we think they will ap-peal to local audiences as well as whether they will contribute to the mission of the Ford Center to ‘enrich the intellectual and cul-tural environment’ of the univer-sity and the region,” Meacham said. “Bits ‘N Pieces Puppet The-atre has performed here several times before, and we know that it will be a great performance.”

The show employs giant pup-pets, shadow puppets, rod pup-pets and actors in costume.

“Every seat in the theater is the best seat in the house when you have 9-foot-tall puppets,” Rubin joked.

Rubin plays the part of Fluff Gruff and made the puppets for the show.

The Bits ‘N Pieces Puppet Theatre has dedicated every-thing to bringing its love of puppets to children all over the world. This is its 40th season, and it has traveled all over the world to share its masterful tale. Countries such as Japan, Tai-wan, the Czech Republic, Ger-many, Trinidad, Guatemala and

Kazakhstan have all been host to the “Three Billy Goats Gruff ” production.

“It is a traditional fairy tale, but it still thrills the modern au-dience,” Rubin said. “We want to inspire. We want kids to rush home to build their own pup-pets.”

This musical of puppets is true

theater art, and Bits N’ Pieces is very excited to come and per-form here.

Rubin stressed the positive energy and arresting artistry of “Three Billy Goats Gruff.”

“It’s a delight to the eyes,” Ru-bin said. “From the very begin-ning, right away, you enter the world of giants.”

Giant Puppet Theatre to visit Ford CenterBY AUDREY HALL

Music in the Hall hosts new talent

It’s a Wednesday night in Ox-ford, and the venue sign reads “private party, invited guest only.” What could it possibly be? Is it an office party? Not quite. Daniel Morrow, has transformed one of the Square’s oldest buildings into a private concert venue appropri-ately named Music in the Hall.

Since Nov. 6, 2008 Music in the Hall has been hosting hip new mu-sic acts from around the states and last Wednesday night, the three

performing acts did not disappoint. Brett Harris of North Carolina brought the sultry pop, Talbot Ad-ams of Oxford came in with a little punk rock, and the Bella Machine Band also of Oxford finished Mu-sic in the Hall with an Americana alternative sound.

The most perfect description of Music in the Hall comes from the creator himself, Daniel Morrow.

“What we aspire to be is some mix of Austin City Limits meets Tiny Desk Concerts meets Day-trotter meets La Blogotheque meets Thacker Mountain Radio,”

Morrow said.Music in the Hall is an intimate

party of about 40 music lovers of all ages united for the same cause — to enjoy great live talent.

Morrow, a computer program-mer turned self-proclaimed “Ox-ford Music Snob” started off work-ing in the building’s office space and decided to turn his job into a concert venue. Now, Morrow lives in Chicago and visits Oxford about every six weeks to put on the best private concert for some lucky Ox-ford music lovers. Morrow said the idea for the venue of Music in the Hall came simply because “the acoustics in this room are so great; this is my favorite place to listen.”

Chico Harris, a friend of Mor-row and a supporter of Music in the Hall, said the purpose of the concerts is “to hear the people that you don’t normally get to hear.”

Harris plans to continue support-ing Music in the Hall in any way he can.

“I don’t mind setting up the chairs or making three beer runs in one night,” Harris said. “Music in the Hall is tremendous, it’s not just about the music but the people that are there to hear it.”

When asked “Why Oxford?” Morrow responded, “There are so many talented musicians, there is always great local music. There is always an audience that appre-

ciates it and wants to go sit down for an hour or two and listen to the music.”

Morrow’s selection process for his performances is based on his personal music taste as well as what will produce a good live show.

Brett Harris, the opening per-formance of Wednesday’s show, introduced the audience to an in-credibly crisp live voice. A first-time visitor to Oxford, Harris hit up Snackbar Restaurant right after Music in the Hall and made it clear that he will be “coming back if you’ll have me.”

Harris’s new album “Up in the Air” will be coming out this year and all music lovers should check out brettharrismusic.com for up-coming performances and maybe another visit to Oxford in the near future.

Music in the Hall’s performanc-es by Talbot Adams and band Bel-la Machine offered the audience a local taste of Oxford’s musical flavor.

For those who missed it, Talbot Adams is a fun must-see who will keep your head bopping all night long. Adams’ next Oxford show will be an album release party April 25 at Ajax.

Drawing in the biggest crowd of local fans, Bella Machine, a four member band of Oxonians ended the show with a bang. Tim Burk-head, Ethan Frink, Kell Kellum and Daniel Russell filled the room with waves of alternative rock/pop sounds. Kellum, a crowd favorite, actually attended the very first Mu-sic in the Hall in 2008.See HALL, PAGE 5

“I’ve been watching the show, and I’ve always been thinking about how much I wanted to play on it,” Kellum said.

Be sure to check out Bella Ma-chine’s next performance in Oxford March 28 at Proud Larry’s.

Other than enjoying the music, Morrow’s mission with Music in the Hall is to “help artists get good high quality video produced at no cost.”

Music in the Hall is a great Ox-ford secret — now uncovered. With future plans of expansion in Chi-cago and throughout the Southeast, Music in the Hall is a promising heaven for lovers of good music.

The Rebel Netters will play host to Southeastern Confer-ence foes Arkansas and LSU this weekend. Ole Miss (4-8, 2-4 SEC) will look to bounce back from the loss against No. 4 Southern Cal Wednesday when it suits up against Arkan-sas today and LSU Sunday.

The Rebels lost to USC 5-2. Junior Nik Scholtz and senior Johan Backstrom delivered the two wins.

Scholtz picked up his sec-ond win of the week against a ranked opponent in singles by defeating No. 11 ranked Yan-nick Hanfmann 7-5, 7-6 (5).

Backstrom fought back after dropping the first set to win 3-6, 6-3, 10-5.

Arkansas (11-10, 1-4 SEC) has played tough competition this season including non-conference opponents Texas, Minnesota, Purdue and Okla-homa State, all losses for the Razorbacks. Their one win in conference play came against Alabama.

LSU (9-8, 0-5 SEC) will

travel to Mississippi State Fri-day before coming to Oxford on Sunday. Despite its poor conference record, LSU has dominated its nonconference opponents. The Tigers will travel to Oxford with a chip on their shoulders as they look to get into the win column in SEC play.

Scholtz looks to continue his winning trend as he seeks to expand his impressive singles record. The Rebels need the

players on courts four, five and six to emerge victorious in or-der for the Rebels to be suc-cessful this weekend.

The Rebel Netters will look to take this weekend’s opportu-nity to bolster their standings in the SEC. The competition with USC puts Ole Miss in a posi-tion for success this weekend.

The match with Arkansas will begin at 2 p.m. today, and the LSU match will begin at 1 p.m. Saturday.

The Ole Miss softball team will host Southeastern Con-ference opponent Arkansas in a three game series this weekend.

The Rebels (17-13, 1-5 SEC) are coming off a win against Louisiana Tech and the sixth no-hitter in program history Wednesday, while the Razorbacks (21-8, 1-2 SEC) enter the game after defeat-ing Memphis 4-0 in Memphis on Wednesday.

Senior Carly Hummel, se-nior Shelby Jo Fenter and sophomore Madi Osias com-bined to throw the first com-bined no-hitter in program history Wednesday. Hummel started things off by pitch-ing the first four innings. She struck out five batters while giving up no walks. Shelby Jo Fenter took over in the fifth and sixth. She struck out one and relinquished no walks be-fore Osias closed things out and picked up the save in the seventh.

Hummel leads the much

improved pitching staff from last season. Through 73.2 in-nings pitched this season she has posted a 7-5 record and a 2.47 ERA. She leads the team in strikeouts with 77.

The Razorbacks are led by freshman pitcher Grace Moll. She has an ERA of 3.16 through 67.0 innings of work and has struck out 50.

At the plate, senior RT Cantillo leads the Rebels in batting average by hitting at a .500 clip. Fellow senior Londen Ladner leads the team in RBI with 20, and she has also blasted four home runs. Junior Allison Brown has a team-high 18 runs scored.

Ole Miss will have to keep an eye on senior Clarisa Na-varro at the plate for Arkan-sas. She leads the team in batting average at .408 and doubles with eight. Devon Wallace will help boost the Razorback offense, as she has belted seven home runs

First pitch between Ole Miss and Arkansas is set for 6 p.m. Friday.

The No. 14 Ole Miss base-ball team will host its first Southeastern Conference se-ries of the season this week-end when the Missouri Tigers come to town.

The Rebels (18-4, 1-2 SEC) are coming off a 4-3 win over Arkansas State on Wednes-day, while the Tigers (11-9, 1-2 SEC) enter the series on a two-game win streak after top-ping Milwaukee in a two-game midweek matchup.

Junior right-hander Chris Ellis will get things started on the mound for Ole Miss to-night. Ellis has gotten off to a hot start this season, compil-ing a 3-0 record in five starts with just a 0.82 ERA. Oppos-ing teams have only scored five runs on Ellis through 33 innings of work.

Missouri will send junior right-hander Brett Graves to the mound to try to counter. Graves is 3-1 in five starts and holds a 1.30 ERA. In 34.2 in-nings of work, he has given up just six runs and struck out 27.

Redshirt sophomore lefty Christian Trent will take the hill Saturday for the Rebels. Trent is 2-0 in his first five starts this season and holds a 3.48 ERA. In 31 innings pitched, he has a team-high 30 strikeouts.

Junior right-hander John Miles will get the Saturday

start for the Tigers. Miles has posted a 2-1 record this season with a 5.76 ERA. Through 25.0 innings pitched, his op-ponents are hitting at a .314 clip against him.

Ole Miss will send junior right-hander Sam Smith to the mound to close things out on Sunday. Smith is 3-1 this season in five starts with a 1.84 ERA.

Senior right-hander Eric Anderson will take the bump for Mizzou on Sunday. Ander-son will look to earn his first win of the season, as he cur-rently has a 0-2 record. He has recorded 13 strikeouts in 13.0 innings of work.

At the plate for Ole Miss, junior Auston Bousfield con-tinues to stay hot. He is hitting .387 and leads the team with

36 hits, two triples and he is tied for the team lead in home runs with three. Bousfield has also knocked in 17 runs, which ranks him second on the team.

Senior Will Allen is another Rebel on a roll. He currently holds a .360 average and leads the team with 10 doubles and 27 RBIs. He is tied with Bous-field with three home runs.

For the Tigers, senior Ken-dall Keeton will pace the of-fense. He leads Missouri with a .351 average, 27 hits and 29 total bases. Another bat the Rebels will have to keep an eye on is freshman Ryan Howard.

Howard is hitting .291, but he leads the Tigers with 12 RBIs and has also hit one home run.

First pitch between the Reb-els and Tigers is set for 6:30 p.m tonight.
