Former Vice President Richard “Dick” Cheney spoke on campus last Tuesday, sparking protests from students and faculty against the choice to invite him. Both De Brabanter and Johns agreed on the right of individuals to protest.

The Cornell Democrats faced criticism for not protesting Cheney as an organization, The Sun previously reported.

According to De Brabanter, she believes it is not their job to protest as an organization and the decision to protest should be an individual one.

“In my personal opinion, I believe … that each individual member should have the ability and choice to protest something that they decide to be active against,” she told The Sun. “The role of the organization is to be a vehicle of support rather than an

Chemist Enters National Academy of Sciences, Thanks Graduate Students

By ALEXIS OH Sun Staff Writer

Prof. Héctor D. Abruña, chemistry and chemical biology, was elected to the National Academy of Sciences last Tuesday and shared his enthusiasm for teaching and research in an interview with The Sun. “It was one of these things that you think about once in a while,” Abruña said about his election, “but you never figure it’s going to happen to you, so when it does, it really catches you by surprise.”

Abruña was born and raised in Puerto Rico, but he earned his bachelor and master’s degrees from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and his postdoctorate from the University of Texas, Austin. He returned to Puerto Rico to begin his academic career in 1982.

Unfortunately, Abruña said that “things did not work as well as I had planned” in Puerto Rico.

“And so after one semester at the University of Puerto Rico, I started looking for another job and I was more than fortunate to get a job here,” he said. “So I started here in ’83 and I have been here ever since. It will be 35 years this summer that I have been at Cornell.”

Abruña calls the 54 Ph.D. students he has guided over the course of his career the “best thing [he has] ever done.”

“I tell my students that on average, they’re a lot smarter than me,” he said. “And I sincerely believe that.”

“But I have a lot of experience and that counts too,” he

added. “We have a tremendously talented pool of students here. They might be inexperienced, but then my job is to provide some experience and some guidance and just let them loose.”

He said “the real credit” goes to his students and postdocs since “they did all the work.”

Abruña, who describes himself as an electrochemist by training, currently teaches CHEM 2090: Engineering General Chemistry and CHEM 6290: Electrochemistry.

Although Abruña said that “the vast majority” of the students in CHEM 2090 will not be chemistry majors, he

“We have a tremendously talented pool of students here ... My job is to provide some experience and some guidance.”

Prof. Héctor D. Abruña would still like them “to have an appreciation for chemistry at large.”

“You want the students to have an appreciation for what chemistry does, the fact that chemistry is really involved in your everyday life,” he said. “If they can get that out of the course with some basic concepts of understanding, I think that’s more than enough.”

Abruña describes his lecturing style for CHEM 2090 as

“part teaching, part performance.”

Addressing the “fear” that many students have about chemistry’s “impossible” reputation, Abruña said that this perception is simply “nonsense.”

“The basic thing is not to fall behind because the course builds on material as it goes on, and if you fall behind early on then you’re going to be playing catch up the entire semester, and that’s really no fun,” Abruña said. “So keeping up with the material is absolutely critical.”

In addition to teaching, Abruña conducts research with students in his lab group. He described the focus of this research as “materials development to enhance the performance of fuel cells, particularly the so-called oxygen reduction reaction, and materials for battery applications.”

Abruña said a fuel cell is a device that turns chemical energy into electricity.

“The advantage of a fuel cell is that it can convert energy into work with very high efficiency,” he said.

The enhancement of the performance of fuel cells would result in “more efficient fuel cells, lower cost fuel cells and longer lifetime fuel cells.”

“We have developed some catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction that look very good,” he said. “In fact, we’re collaborating with GM and there’s a good chance that when they put a fuel cell-powered car on the market, this catalyst will be part of that.”

Alumna to Compete in Jeopardy!

Teachers Tournament This Week

Down to business | Faculty and staff from the business college and the City of Ithaca participate in the final session of the LEADBold series, a public engagement initiative.

Program Teaches Ithacans Business Skills

By STACEY BLANSKY Sun Staff Writer

Since September 2017, the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business has actively collaborated with the City of Ithaca to hold a professional program, titled LEADBold, which the University is hoping will enhance the region’s public engagement initiative by sharing the resources of Cornell professors with the greater community.

Held at the Tompkins County Public Library, LEADBold, which stands for “learning, engaging, anticipating, demonstrating boldly,” is a pro-bono professional development program for individuals employed within the Ithaca and Tompkins

County area to enhance their learning and knowledge.

According to Candace Maxian, assistant director of external relations for Cornell SC Johnson College of Business, the main goal of LEADBold is to apply the knowledge and skills taught at Cornell to residents of Tompkins County in order to create a community-level learning experience.

“This whole program exemplifies Cornell SC Johnson College’s public engagement effort,” Maxian said. “Public engagement is something that our college feels very strongly about, and this is an opportunity to put that idea into action.”

The program consists of workshops, including a faculty-

led presentation followed by Q&A, that have ranged in topics from “Effective Management Communication” to “I am too Young, Why Should I Think About Retirement.”

According to Maxian, feedback from program participants has been extremely positive.

“People are enjoying the seminars and learning something new and interesting,” Maxian said. “It is a mutually beneficial and collaborative situation.”

Rohit Verma, dean of external relations of the business college, mentioned that the creation of LEADBold had its challenges and took a lot of effort from both sides for the program to start running.

Answer: Who is Erika Eason ’95?

Eason, who was a Spanish major in the College of Arts and Sciences, was selected as one of 15 teachers to compete in this year’s Jeopardy! Teachers Tournament and said her education at Cornell — which included significant “breadth and depth [of ] requirements” — prepared her for the competition.

“Having that foundation of a liberal arts education sets you up really well for a trivia competition,” Eason said. “Being a Cornellian … really encouraged what was already in me, which was a general curiosity of the world.”

The Teachers Tournament is an annual special edition of the famous trivia show that requires all contestants to first

take an online test, which determines whether they will be selected to participate the next round — a regional in-person audition.

“Based on how you do on the inperson rounds, your name gets thrown into a contestant pool for 18 months — and anytime during those 18 months you might get the call,” Eason explained.

Eason first tried out for Jeopardy! five years ago but had never gone beyond the regional audi-

tion.

“I took the online test three times, but I only made it through to the inperson rounds twice,” Eason told The Sun. This time, however, she was invited to be on the show.

Quarter-final matches began airing on Monday and will run until May 18.

A K-12 technology teacher for the Maret School in Washington, D.C., Eason said her time at Cornell enabled See JEOPARDY! page 5

Incoming Republican and Dem. Presidents Plan to Collaborate LEADERS

Continued from page 1

organizational protest group.”

While Johns recognized the First Amendment right of people to protest, he disagreed with people taking away other people’s rights to engage with the speakers. According to Johns, that type of protesting is an example of hostility to both the Cornell Republicans and the mission of the University.

“I really have no objection to anybody protesting any Republican event as long as the right of the speaker to be heard and the right of the audience to listen is being respected as well,” he told The Sun. De Brabanter noted she would not want to bring speakers that are very controversial because it could potentially threaten the comfort and safety of students. She referred to bringing speakers like Rick Santorum, who the Republicans brought to Cornell in 2016, as something she would refrain from in her presidency.

“To be quite honest, speakers on the Democratic side would probably not bring as much controversy as the speakers that the Republicans have chosen in the past,” she said.

“We have seen Rick Santorum, a speaker that marginalizes the LGBTQ community. We would never bring a speaker as controversial as that who would threaten the safety or comfortability of our members.”

Johns, on the other hand, views bringing speakers as an opportunity to engage with different viewpoints, regardless of whether someone is liberal or conservative. Bringing Cheney was important because he was a “really important figure in the conservative movement,” Johns said.

“I think that that experience, encountering different views, and thinking for yourself about how you feel about them is an inherently good experience,” Johns said.

“In the future I want the Cornell Republicans to bring speakers who represent conservative ideas across the spectrum and who give the campus more opportunities to engage with ideas and political positions that they normally wouldn’t in their classes,” he added.

National and Local Initiatives

Although supporting opposite sides, both presidents

have similar intentions to influence voter turnout in upcoming elections.

De Brabanter said she plans to rally support within Ithaca and increase voter registration. One goal she outlined is to get Democrats elected during the midterm elections. “[We will be] holding voter registration tables [and] doing this massive effort to get people in the Ithaca community registered,” she said. “[There] are thousands of voters that might not have necessarily voted in the past. If we inspire them to voice their opinions, it really has the potential to change the outcome [of the] midterm elections.”

Conversely, Johns hopes to continue to help elect Republicans and do work for the local, state and national Republican parties.

“I take our job as college Republicans very seriously in terms of what we can do to serve the local, state and national parties,” he said. “Going into the election cycle, we have begun efforts with the Ithaca Republicans, the Tompkins County Republicans, as well as the RNC, and everyone in between to represent our candidates and especially support Tom Reed going into the 2018 election.”

Collaboration Efforts

Both leaders also expressed their commitment to fostering discussion and open debate within political organizations on campus.

“I am looking forward to next year and I am hoping the Democrats and Republicans can come together to better the Cornell political campus climate and the political community,” De Brabanter said.

“I think there has been a lot of vitriol and angst in regards to that,” she said. “I have worked with Republicans in the past and that is something I can appreciate is that we can sit down and discuss things instead of being emotional.”

She also acknowledged the unique role that conservatives play on campus, stating that it isn’t easy to be conservative.

“Campus conservatives don’t have an easy job,” she said.

“They are the mouthpieces for the conservative thought.

And for them I completely understand how difficult it is to be the minority. To be attacked, it’s not easy.”

Johns also mentioned wanting to continue the collaboration the organizations have had in the past, especially in terms of holding debates.

“We have worked very well with the Cornell Democrats in the past,” Johns said. “I personally am looking forward to another year of holding debates with them, public debates for the University to consider throughout the semester.”

Engagement and Campus Political Climate

The two future leaders discussed student political engagement and how that has affected the Cornell political climate.

Johns referred to how political hostility tends to be concentrated within a small minority of people. He joined the organization due to his belief that there was a lack of conservatism on campus.

Furthermore, he said defending First Amendment rights and continuing open discussion are some of the central ideas of the Cornell Republicans.

According to Johns, he has received messages from incoming students and community members who are concerned about expressing their conservative views on campus.

“It was my view pretty soon after coming to campus that there was a serious problem with Cornell about open discussion, open debate and especially accessibility of conservative ideas,” he said. “My goal moving forward is to continue making the Cornell Republicans an honest intellectual space for conservative ideas where we defend our views on a campus where not many people understand them.”

De Brabanter wants to get more students thinking about how policies and laws of the President Donald J. Trump’s administration affect them, even if they do not agree with his presidency.

“If you are a liberal person and you see Trump as your president it’s very hard to be engaged,” she said. “In the same vein, if Trump is your president and he is making all these decisions, not even on the national level but on the local level, you should be pretty pissed that these laws are going against your values.”

“In terms of engagement, it’s hard because you can’t force people to care about something but these are real things that are affecting us that people should care about,” she said. “It should be a top priority to work to change them.”

Student-Made Website Aims to Help Cornellians Find Courses

By ALEXIA GE Sun Staff Writer

In order to help students better select their courses, a team of Cornell students launched a new website, CU Reviews, that pro-

vides comprehensive information about classes that goes beyond basic information about the professors who teach them.

Currently, many students turn to Rate My Professors to find reviews of classes “because of the

lack of options,” said Divyansha Sehgal ’18, product manager of the website and a former science editor for The Sun. Sehgal, along with lead developer Vinisha Mittal ’18 and product manager Brooke

Docherty ’19, criticized Rate My Professors for being “cringey” with scales such as “hotness” in place.

“It does not help either the professors or the students who are trying to take the class,”

Sehgal added.

In comparison with Rate My Professors’ emphasis on the instructors who teach the class, CU Reviews focuses on more comprehensive reviews of classes.

“Classes are a lot more than the person teaching them,” Docherty said.

“Even though the professors influence the classes a lot, the structure of the class is also important. This is something we found that other competitors don’t get at all,” Sehgal added.

Sehgal said that in order to address the proliferation of inappropriate personal comments about professors on Rate My Professors, the project team decided that uploaded comments have to be reviewed, which should eliminate spam comments and keep the website at the “highest level of accuracy.”

“The code of conduct on our website should be what you would be able to say to people themselves,” Sehgal said.

The engineering project team responsible for conducting this product, Cornell Design and Tech Initiative, spent almost one and a half years developing the website, including a whole semester researching and surveying the needs of the Cornell community.

About 200 respondents of a survey favored the idea of a platform that helps them choose courses.

College of Business Engages With Local Community in Series of Workshops BUSINESS

Continued from page 3

For example, Verma stated that one of the main challenges of the program was encouraging professors on campus to perform the workshops for the Ithaca community pro-bono.

“One of the biggest challenges when you start something new is to create the program without knowing how it will get supported,” Verma said. “In the long run, we would like to identify and develop resources that can support something like this on a much bigger scale.”

Verma explained that the main goal of the College of Business is to teach, which means that the faculty must bring real world problems and issues into the classroom.

The engagement with the community allows Cornell to connect with and learn from the surrounding community, leveraging real-world issues and using them to enhance what is taught to students.

“This program is part of our larger effort to make public engagement an integral part of our work at the

Cornell SC Johnson College of Business,” Verma said. “It will help our students, so they can apply their knowledge for real problems and make a positive impact to the society.”

Joseph Thomas, interim dean of the business college, said that he is pleased the college has the ability to provide employees within the City of Ithaca and Tompkins County the opportunity to engage with the Cornell campus.

“I am also very thankful to the City of Ithaca for providing valuable information and data for an MBA immersion project this semester as part of this collaboration,” Thomas said. “Such support allows us to bring ‘real-world’ context within our educational programs to enhance student learning and significantly add to their Cornell experience.”

Verma said that once more faculty begin to focus their energy at looking at their issues locally, Cornell’s research program will become relevant and applicable on a wider scale.

“Cornell is a major research university because we seek

out and develop new knowledge,” Verma said. “New knowledge, especially related to business and social sciences, cannot always be created in the lab. We have to go out in the community, to identify and explore complex problems and attempt to solve them.”

Verma explained that the ability and willingness of the campus to help residents of Tompkins County and vice versa will extend the benefits of public engagement to the entire community.

“We would like to see our college as a much more integrated part of the Ithaca community,” Verma said. “If we can find a way to engage faculty and students with the community, then together we can make the area which hosts our university and college much better off.”

Mayor of Ithaca Svante Myrick ’09 expressed appreciation for the program.

“We're grateful for LEADBold — it has provided City employees with valuable information and education that has enabled us to better serve the public,” Myrick said.

al student representative, sponsored the resolution.

The University currently subsidizes temporary parking for faculty and staff yet excludes students from benefiting from free, temporary parking, Battaglia said.

“We find this concerning because this creates a socioeconomic barrier,” Battaglia said, adding that “if you have a lot of money, you are able to do [park on campus], and if not, you aren’t.”

Battaglia said that parking permits are expensive because the University wants to discourage students from parking on campus.

“That being said, if you aren’t able to walk because you are temporarily disabled, that’s a different rationale for why you want to park on campus versus a student who just wants to park their car on campus,” he said.

Though there are services in place to assist temporary disabled persons — including CU Lift, bus

c

passes and other accommodations — the bureaucratic delay from paperwork is problematic for students who need to attend class, according to Battaglia.

The resolution also addressed the fact that women who are in their third trimester of pregnancy are subject to pay for temporary disability. By law, a pregnant women cannot be treated differently than a temporarily disabled person, Battaglia said.

“The fact that Cornell is charging pregnant women for the temporary disability permit is concerning,” he said.

For those who are temporarily disabled for two to three weeks, paying for parking is cheaper than buying a parking permit.

However, students who are economically disadvantaged should not have to pay for disability parking, Battaglia said.

“We want students that are injured to be able to go to class as best as possible,” Battaglia said.

The University Assembly also passed revised language in how the

Judicial Administrator is appointed. Changes include an indefinite term for the J.A., presidential discretion to ask for more candidates when choosing a new J.A., giving the U.A. the authority to remove the J.A. with presidential approval and final approval from the Board of Trustees if the president dissents, and giving the president the authority to initiate the removal of the J.A. Prof. Richard Bensel, government, faculty representative, noted this was a “delicate” topic that will lead to “... improving the quality of J.A.s.”

Bensel additionally noted that the University Assembly and administration took into account “interests collectively.”

“This is an excellent example of how when the assemblies and the administration want to work together, we do so quite well; this was done in about a month,” Battaglia said.

From the Editor

Back After This TODAY, THE CORNELL DAILY SUN puts its regular print copy to rest until the start of fall semester. It has been a busy few months for us at 139 W. State Street, and I am immensely proud of the hard work that the 136th Editorial Board has put into providing our community with valuable journalism on the issues that matter most. Whether it was the tumult of Student Assembly elections, the John Greenwood saga, the protracted demise of Brian Wansink or a banner year for Cornell sports (LGR!), The Sun has been the place for coverage and commentary.

As we close out almost a century and a half of publication, we continue to look for innovative ways to reach new audiences and cover new issues. This summer, The Sun will once again expand our digital presence with a student-developed iOS application. With more and more of our readership migrating to mobile devices, our app will allow us to bring the news to you more efficiently than ever before.

From now till class resumes in August, Sun coverage will be online only, at cornellsun.com —- so if you don’t already follow us on Facebook (facebook.com/cornellsun), Twitter (@cornellsun) and Instagram (@cornellsun), you’ll want to do that now.

I encourage you to remain engaged and involved with The Sun, and please know that I am always reachable personally at editor-inchief@cornellsun.com.

But for now, take a moment to relax and enjoy Galantis on Slope Day. We’ll be right back after this.

—J.S.K.R.

A Sun Slope Day Poem This poem is adapted from Haley Conover’s original, which ran in the May 3, 2013 issue of The Sun.

’Twas the night before Slope Day, when all through the frats All the bros were a-stirring in their letter clad hats.

The Keystones were set by the bedside with care, In hopes that sweet Slope Day soon would be there.

The freshman were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of Galantis danced in their heads.

And I in my Co-op and with a little night-cap, Had just settled down for a pre-Slope Day nap.

When out on the street there arose such a clatter, I stumbled from bed to see what was the matter.

Down to the porch I flew like a flash, To find that Slope Day had come at long last.

While some professors held class just for show All across campus students were dropping it low.

When what to my wondering eyes should appear, But an ambiguous shot, and some really crap beer!

But oh Captain and Crown with Bud and Grey Goose!

The mixers and and mix-ups and bad jungle juice!

To the brim of the cup, fill it up tall!

Now drink it down! Keep it down! Drink it down all!

As birds must travel at the weather’s strict will, So too were we drawn to that slope of a hill.

Some did not make it, they were down for the count, But this did not stop us from climbing the mount.

And then with some static, I heard from the stage The counting and huffing of a sound check engaged!

As I drew up my head, and was turning around, On the stage came Galantis, with great musical bound!

They were dressed all in swagger, from their heads to their glasses, And they danced with fine ladies, shaking their asses.

A torrent of lyrics were flung from their throats, And the mosh thronged drunkenly, a stage-guarding moat.

But finally they finished, and some were near sober, While the hot mid-day sun had caused burning all over.

So slowly and stumbly the students they rose, And went to their houses for an afternoon doze.

But fear not dear students, it will come once more!

When no one cares that you’ve puked on the floor.

May you all enjoy your drunken delight, Happy Slope Day to all! And to all a good night!

OPINION

Unlearning Machine Bias

I

t’s July 17, 2014, and as Eric Garner is killed by the police, his final words are, “I can’t breathe.”

It’s April 12, 2018, and a barista calls the cops on two black men waiting patiently for a friend in a Starbucks.

It’s August 4, 2025, and the Chicago Police Department, now relying heavily on facial recognition artificial intelligence software, wrongly identifies and arrests Barack Obama.

While that last example may be a hypothetical, we’ve already seen the damaging ramifications of biased A.I. technology. Courts in Broward County, Florida, currently use risk assessment A.I. to predict whether the defendant of a petty crime is likely to commit more serious crimes in the future. This software wrongly labels black defendants almost twice as often as it does white defendants. From facial recognition to algorithms that map out which neighborhoods are likely to be the “dangerous,” bias in A.I. is overwhelming and under-regulated.

Just ask Joy Buolamwini, a graduate student at the MIT Media Lab who studies bias in facial recognition software. Her work quantifies the rate at

which these programs fail in identifying gender. And it looks like these programs are most accurate for one particular group: white males, with a 99 percent success rate. Lighter-skinned women, however, are misidentified up to 7 percent of the time. Darker-skinned men are incorrectly identified up to 12 percent of the time, while darker-skinned women experience up to 35 percent error in facial recognition.

Can’t we just reprogram the code? It’s not as easy as it sounds. A.I. is trained with large sets of input data. If the data that goes in is already biased, no matter how subtle, the A.I. will learn that bias.

But why are these data sets biased?

Blame us, the humans. Whether we’re aware of it or not, prejudices and biases affect our society. Our views of the world are shaped by the people around us and what we see in the media. When a predominantly white male workforce trains facial recognition algorithms, they naturally will use the images they know, and unintentionally forget the images they don’t. Our biases never escape us.

We could rely on the large tech corporations to fix these issues. And

indeed, Facebook, Google and Microsoft have all made public statements...when their software failed.

These companies are under-regulated and have a strong desire to keep their algorithms a secret, preventing meaningful dialogue. Treating A.I. as a black box and hoping for the best has already been shown to be naive at best and grossly negligent at worst.

problem from various points of view.

We call on faculty members and students alike to make this issue a priority.

Put in the work now to avoid life-altering consequences later: in any course, seminar or workshop that remotely touches on the development of A.I. technology, consider the biases it may have, and what the impacts might be.

It’s May 9, 2018, and it’s time to

In any course, seminar or workshop that remotely touches on the development of A.I. technology, consider the biases it may have, and what the impacts might be.

So, let’s get ahead of the problem.

Let’s bolster educational efforts right here at Cornell. Let’s expand the recent initiative, A.I. Policy and Practice, with workshops, conferences and even course requirements. Let’s partner faculty in an array of fields — from sociology to computer engineering, from business to law — to understand this complex

build a better generation of coders, a generation that values diversity. The future is now; let’s make sure the present is ready.

Continue to Challenge Close-Mindedness at Cornell

n May 1, the Cornell University College Republicans hosted former Vice President Dick Cheney on campus for a lecture and questionand-answer session that was co-sponsored by Young America’s Foundation, a national conservative youth organization.

Despite repeated attempts by a group of students and faculty members to prevent the event from occurring as planned, the College Republicans successfully organized a once-in-a-lifetime

Cheney, “Thank you for your service!”

Yet, the College Republicans achieved this success despite the close-minded opposition they faced from some students and faculty and the apparent disinterest displayed by senior university leadership. The specifics are too numerous to discuss in entirety here, so let us review just a few.

– Marco Antonio Peralta-Ochoa ’21, a member of the Student Assembly, which is purportedly the organization

When students and even faculty members ... respond to your efforts with childish and ad hominem attacks, you can be assured that you are doing meaningful work. opportunity for nearly 550 interested students and community members to hear from one of the most consequential conservative leaders in recent history.

Vice President Cheney delivered wide-ranging remarks, addressing topics such as his justification for the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the U.S. enhanced interrogation program and the Iran nuclear deal, among others. These were all topics that were at the top of mind for those attending the event, as the questions were submitted directly by the public and posed to Cheney verbatim.

The majority of audience members were respectful and clearly interested in hearing Cheney’s point of view. They delivered rounds of applause, and in response to one of multiple attempts by disruptors to silence Cheney from speaking, an audience member yelled out to

tasked with “making sure that student issues are heard and addressed,” openly admitted to hoarding 88 tickets to the event to limit the number of students who could hear from Cheney.

– Prof. Matthew Evangelista, the President White Professor of History and Political Science, lamented the College Republicans’ selection of Vice President Cheney as their speaker, stating, “The Cornell Republicans could have chosen any number of Republican political figures to honor with an invitation to our campus.”

Prof. Evangelista should note for future reference that it is not the responsibility of the College Republicans to host speakers who satisfy his ideological test. The College Republicans are providing a valuable service by hosting conservative speak-

ers — of their choice — on a campus where over 90 percent of faculty members’ donations to candidates for public office went to Democrats.

– Prof. Russell Rickford, history, led protesters, arguing that by inviting Vice President Cheney to Cornell, the College Republicans demonstrated their “contempt for humanity.”

According to a transcript of the speech that he prepared for the protest, Rickford asked the protesters to “confront the petty bureaucrats and the guardians of the status quo.” The status quo at Cornell is liberal orthodoxy, and the College Republicans were, indeed, challenging this exact state of affairs by hosting Cheney on campus.

– Prof. Rachel Weil, history, unfavorably compared Vice President Cheney to a slime mold, stating, “But you don’t invite slime molds or mass killers to speak at your university… because this gives them legitimacy and authority that slime molds don’t have.” Not quite satisfied with her comparison, she commented, “In hindsight what I said was unfair to slime molds. Please give them my apologies.”

– Setting aside this faculty hostility, it is important to note that not a single senior university administrator welcomed Vice President Cheney to Cornell prior to his remarks.

All of this stands in stark contrast to the fawning treatment former Vice President Joe Biden received when he visited Cornell in 2017 to deliver the commencement address. This is the same man who voted for the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 and who played a key role in America’s drone war during the Obama administration, which included

“kill lists” that resulted in the killing of civilians and U.S. citizens.

Despite this, Cornell president Martha Pollack introduced Biden in glowing terms in front of thousands of Cornellians and their families, praising him for his “active role in foreign policy” and his skills that allowed him to “effectively manage the United States’ relations in challenging areas.” She added that it was her “great honor” to welcome Biden.

Senior university leaders sat on stage and in the audience and clapped approvingly.

Mr. Biden was not only welcomed with open arms, but he was also honored

by Cornell Dairy with an ice cream flavor named after him — “Red, White, and Biden.” He strutted on stage after his remarks, eating ice cream and enjoying the flattering experience.

The College Republicans should know this: when students and even faculty members — those whose obligation is to educate you and your peers — respond to your efforts with childish and ad hominem attacks, you can be assured that you are doing meaningful work. It irks them that you are reaching hundreds of your peers with ideas wholly different from theirs.

Keep up the fight.

Editor’s Note: Peralta-Ochoa — who, in a Facebook post, claimed to have collected 103 tickets — offered “free tickets” at the door of the event. On them, he had written “500,000 killed” and “1.7 million displaced.” The tickets were accepted for entry.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Top Albums by Gov Ball 2018 Artists This year, I am proud to say that The Sun will be covering Gov Ball 2018. Check out our list of favorite albums by this year’s performers.

— Pete Buonanno

2

1

American Teen, Khalid Khalid’s debut album American Teen is vibrant and portrays the beauty of youth and hope. On the album, Khalid speaks from the heart about his life.

He discusses love and relationships, experimenting with drugs, parents, parties and establishing himself in an uncertain society (all common daily thoughts and experiences of the American teen). Khalid impresses with his vocals and the production shines above that of similar albums.

3

Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight Travis Scott

Okay, maybe I’m a little biased. Travis Scott is one of my favorite performers of all time, as only a select few artists bring/brought the same amount of energy to each one of their live performances, and I still listen to Birds and Rodeo at least once a week — but hey, The Sun staff agrees with me on this one. Birds is the perfect soundtrack for any setting; whether you are throwing that final end of year party, or just sitting around drinking André and talking about your feelings, Birds has the vibe for you. Expect Travis to tear the stage down at Gov Ball this year.

4

Beerbongs and Bentleys Post Malone

Although relatively new to shelves and streaming platforms, every single song on Beerbongs and Bentleys is a certified banger. The album was streamed over 431 million times in its first week of availability. While no one can deny the brain invasive effects of tracks like “Candy Paint,” “Psycho” and “Rockstar,” for us, the London on da Track produced “92 Explorer” stands out as the clear highlight.

7

Stoney Post Malone

Let’s put it like this: Stoney is underappreciated. It took almost a full year before any other song off of Stoney other than “Congratulations,” the omnipresent track featuring Quavo, became popular. And that was after a short video of Post singing “I Fall Apart” live went viral. The album demonstrates sonic and song-writing maturity on the part of Post, and his musicianship is undeniable. Watch for songs you don’t recognize but love at Post’s Gov Ball set this year; you can probably find them on Stoney.

There isn’t much new to say about this album. For so many of us, it holds a special place in our hearts. For me, it was the first album I ever bought. I remember it vividly. I was 11 years old when it came out, and I had seen the ads for it on TV. I convinced my mom to take me to Target, where I refused to leave unless she allowed me to use my birthday money to get the album. Recovery, in my opinion, is one of the greatest albums of all time and is the perfect representation of an artist that is the voice of a generation. Powerful tracks such as “You’re Never Over” and “No Love” dominate the album. Plus, who could forget the original sad boy songs; yes, this was before the time of Drake’s Take Care, “25 to Life” and “Space Bound.” I don’t need to tell you not to miss Eminem, because if you did have tickets to Gov Ball and chose to skip his performance, I would be worried about you.

Recovery Eminem

Rodeo Travis Scott

Luv Is Rage II Lil Uzi Vert

Wow, what a day. I never thought I’d see the day when I would get to rave about Travis Scott twice in one day. Rodeo is a formal introduction of Travis Scott to the world that Owl Pharaoh glimpsed. The album consists primarily of dark, house party vibes, and it stands out clearly as one of the best debut albums in hip-hop history. With songs like “Antidote” and “90210,” there is no denying its merit.

Luv Is Rage II is more or less a jumbled collection of stadium anthems and bangers, but Uzi sneaks a few sensitive moments in as well — including the smash hit “The Way Life Goes.”

Other standouts include “Sauce It Up” and “Unfazed.” But who could forget “XO Tour Life?” This song is one of those that everyone who listened to music during 2017 knew or at least had heard in some capacity. Uzi’s second installment of the Luv Is Rage series shines.

8

The Eminem Show Eminem

If any album stood for who Eminem was more so than Recovery, this was it. First of all, you know it’s going to be a good album when an entire song had to be removed from many of the censored versions of the album — track #9 “Drips.” However, while this album at times goes on a spree of profane hype music that is NSFW, several tracks convey very potent messages that are never to be forgotten in the music world. “Hailie’s song” and “Without Me” are perfect examples of this.

Saturation II Brockhampton

It would’t be a Sun music list be without Brockhampton. The self-proclaimed “best boy band since One Direction” made what could be argued as the best album of 2017 in Saturation II, the only difference is they hadn’t yet gotten the recognition. Songs like “Gummy” and “Queer” are great for jumping around without a shirt on to, and songs like “Summer” puts you so deep into your feels that you may cry. Get ready to laugh, jump and shed a tear with Brockhampton this summer at Gov Ball.

Relapse/Refill Eminem

This was actually the second album I ever bought. I snuck it in the shopping cart at WalMart when I was a little kid. This album is about the last thing you want your fifth grade child listening to, but I turned out okay. It is filled with profanity and grotesque imagery but powerfully conveys a message on mental health and drug addiction in America. Eminem is truly one of the greatest artists to ever live, and the creativity and life experience conveyed on Relapse/Refill is truly incredible.

TOP SENIOR MALE ATHLETE

Swimmer Alex Evdokimov

By RAPHY GENDLER Sun Assistant Sports Editor

For senior Alex Evdokimov, reaching NCAA nationals was the ultimate goal from the beginning of his Cornell swimming career. It was a goal he quickly achieved — three times.

In March, Evdokimov capped off an impressive collegiate career, earning firstteam All-America honors in two events at the NCAA swimming and diving national championships in Minneapolis.

Evdokimov was one of just four swimmers to earn All-America honors in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke, earning fourth place in the 100 and fifth in the 200.

In the 200 at this year’s NCAAs, Evdokimov swam a 1:52.36 to get into the top five, less than a tenth of a second slower than his previous best time. In the 100, he swam a 51.32, breaking his previous Ivy League record — Evdokimov holds the best and second-best times in Ivy League championship history in the 200.

Evdokimov made an immediate splash in his freshman season, only to miss the cutoff for nationals by a slim margin.

“I’ve wanted to go there ever since my freshman year when I barely missed the cutoff,” Evdokimov said. “Since then I’ve been able to go, and I’ve been trying to improve and have a good meet there, which only happened this year which I was very happy about.”

The four-time Ivy champion holds the Cornell program record in the 100 by more than two and a half seconds.

Evdokimov was the first Cornellian to become a national finalist since Randy Sprout ’86 did it in the 50 free in 1986.

At home against Brown in January, the 200 medley relay team of sophomore Dylan Curtis, sophomore Jacob Mullin , freshman Jack Mahoney and Evdokimov posted a pool record 1:28.98. In the 2018 Ivy Championships, Evdokimov took first in the 200 breast, beating out the secondplace finisher by more than three seconds.

While his senior season was a culmination of an impressive career, Evdokimov got off to a hot start right when he arrived

at Cornell from his hometown of Coral Springs, Florida. He won the 100 and 200 breaststroke events at the Ivy League championships his freshman year before earning honorable mention All-American accolades in the 200 in his sophomore season and both the 100 and 200 as a junior.

While his national achievements define his swimming career, Evdokimov said his experiences at Ivy tournaments were some of his favorites.

“I’ve loved going to Ivies every single year because a lot of the team gets to go, so it’s a real team atmosphere,” he said.

“Even though it’s such a demanding meet … everyone still gets to be there as a team.”

Last November, Evdokimov was honored with the 2017 Richie Moran Award, Cornell Athletics’ award for performance in and out of the sphere of sports.

“Although there have been a lot of separate achievements and awards, [this award] encompasses everything together,” Evdokimov told The Sun in November.

“It’s not very typical to be honored across … different sports.”

After four years as a top performer for the Red, Evdokimov said he’ll miss the team environment most. “[I’ll miss] how close everyone was to each other and the atmosphere — the training environment and hanging out with the same people that you see 20 hours a week on top of that,” he said.

As for what lies ahead for the standout swimmer, Evdokimov said he plans to train for the upcoming Olympic trials.

“We’ll see what happens,” he said of the goal of reaching the Olympics.

Fresh off one of the most impressive swimming seasons in Cornell history, it’s a bit early for Evdokimov to look back at his legacy — but he knows it’s one that promises to be long-lasting.

“I was extremely happy with the season and just how my Cornell career turned out, and I’m hoping my name stays on the wall for a couple years,” Evdokimov said.

TOP SENIOR FEMALE ATHLETE

Bouncing back | Ida Farinholt went from tearing her ACL in back-to-back seasons to becoming The Sun’s 2018 female senior athlete of the year.

From tearing her ACL to tearing up the field, senior captain and midfielder Ida Farinholt has left a legacy on Cornell women’s lacrosse that transcends far beyond the realm of lacrosse.

The Richmond, Virginia native got her start in lacrosse at a young age, inspired by her two older brothers, but didn’t make the fortuitous decision to play for the Red until relatively late in the game.

“Junior year [of high school] I wasn’t even looking at Cornell,” Farinholt said.

“But I went to a tournament in Florida and [head coach Jenny Graap ’86] contacted me, and I thought ‘why not try?’

Meeting the team made me decide to come, and the offer was hard to decline with the academics.”

Though she was able to make an immediate impact with her athleticism as a freshman, averaging over a point per game, Farinholt’s rare misfortune of tearing the same ACL in back-to-back seasons cut both her freshman and sophomore seasons short.

Undeterred, Farinholt put her nose to the grindstone to become an integral part of the 2017 team that won the Ivy League title, advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament and finished the season ranked No. 11 nationally.

Her hard work paid off as she was the team’s top athlete in the weight room this season, earning herself a spot on the coveted Wall of Honor.

“Having to sit out of two seasons was tough,” Farinholt said. “But it taught me a lot of lessons about resilience and being a team leader in a different way — not on the field, but on the sideline, and in the locker room and weight room. I learned to be patient and wait for my time to work hard and get back on the field.”

Farinholt’s hard work on her strength and power translated to the field as she rounded out her senior season ranked third on the team in both points (30) and goals (25), and first for all midfielders in

both categories.

Displaying immense composure under pressure, Farinholt was also instrumental in the team’s two overtime wins this season — tying up the game against Colgate and scoring the game winner in double overtime against UMass.

As impressive as Farinholt is on paper, it is the qualities that are harder to quantify that truly elevate her into a league of her own.

As if the resilience and mental fortitude required to come back from consecutive season-ending injuries weren’t enough of a testament to the strength of her character, Farinholt also won the BRICK award in 2017 — a distinction regarded by Graap as “the highest honor a player in our program can achieve.”

For all her success, Farinholt remains modest — shifting the praise away from herself and onto her teammates.

“My class is very special in the fact that we started and ended with seven people,” she said. “We all stuck through injuries and other obstacles that everyone faces playing a Division I sport.

Hopefully, our class became role models of how people can work hard and stick with the program.”

Whether it’s continually setting the bar higher in workouts or comforting a teammate after a tough loss, Farinholt and her determination, perseverance and humility make anyone who knows her want to be better — not just as an athlete, but as a person.

“Ida is a genuinely caring individual, and her teammates know that she will be there always,” Graap said. “She sets a strong example with her generosity of spirit and selfless attitude.”

Though Farinholt will be donning the white and Carolina blue of the Tar Heels next year as she finishes out her remaining eligibility at the University of North Carolina, the impact — both tangible and intangible — that she has left on the Red will remain indelible.
