Hundreds ‘Stand Together’Against Anti-Semitism Gathering follows statement signed by over 70 student organizations condemning anti-Semitic flyers

By BREANNE FLEERS Sun Staff Writer

Hundreds of students rallied on Ho Plaza on Wednesday afternoon and condemned the anti-Semitic and white supremacist messages found on buildings across campus Monday morning.

“No hate, no fear, everyone is welcome here,” students chanted.

The stand-in came in response to the posters, which contained the messages, “Just say no to Jewish lies” and “Join the white gang.”

“No Cornell student should feel unsafe on campus because of their religion, culture, gender, sexual orientation, ability status, race, socioeconomic status or ethnicity, again, only to name some,” said Danielle Eiger ’18, an event organizer.

Since then, over 70 student organizations have signed a statement condemning these acts and other recent incidents “targeting the Latinx, Black and Muslim communities, as well as other marginalized people on campus.”

“Given the atrocious nature of the flyers

found Monday morning, we cannot emphasize enough how much the Jewish community’s hearts are filled by the support of over 70 organizations and countless friends who have joined us in expressly denouncing anti-Semitism on our campus,” said Brandon Cohen ’18, event organizer and president of Cornell Hillel.

During the event, speakers shared their personal stories about experiences with antiSemitism, read poems and described how their families were impacted by the Holocaust.

Drawing on his visit to a large Polish city where residents lived directly across from a Holocaust-era concentration camp, Cohen urged members of the crowd not to be bystanders to hate.

“Just because it’s not impacting you does not mean it isn’t impacting your friend. It does not mean that you are not playing a role in perpetuating hatred,” he said.

Forbes Addresses Cornellians Klarman ’79 Rejects Calls

By EMMA NEWBURGER Sun Assistant News Editor

The real source of wealth in society derives not from physical things, Forbes said, but from the human mind, as the modern economy cannot prosper without “human ingenuity.”

Free markets will always turn scarcity into abundance, he said, using automobile innovation as an example.

“One hundred twenty years ago, a car costed over 110,000 dollars,” he said. “It was a toy for the rich. But Henry Ford came along with the moving assembly line and turned this toy for the rich into something every working person can afford.”

Former Cornell Law Prof, Economist Dies at 68

McChesney pioneered public choice economics, exposed subversive political behavior in Congress

By STACEY BLANSKY Sun Staff Writer

Fred S. McChesney, a former law professor who taught at Cornell from 1997 to 1999, died on Oct. 12 at age 68 after battling an extended illness.

McChesney was best known for applying economics to the study of law through a field called public choice economics, which is based on the use of economic theories to understand political behavior and decisions.

In his critically-acclaimed book Money for Nothing: Politicians, Rent Extraction, and Political Extortion, published in 1997, McChesney argued that members of Congress have often made legislative proposals they do not support, then dropped them for a price — completely legally.

“This is basically extortion by politicians, in that they are paid not to legislate — they get money for nothing,” he said in a 1998 interview with the Cornell Chronicle.

As a professor, his primary educational interests were in the fields of antitrust, corporations, law and economics. He wrote over 100 books, articles and scholarly works that were published by leading academic journals and presses.

McChesney earned his law degree from the University of Miami in 1978 and a doctorate in economics from the University of Virginia in 1982.

He also served as associate director for policy and evaluation at the Federal Trade Commission during the Reagan administration.

In addition to teaching law at Cornell, McChesney taught at Northwestern, Emory and UM. His career

spanned 35 years.

At UM, McChesney became the first holder of the de la CruzMentschikoff Endowed Chair in Law and Economics at UM, a position that honors the intersection of law and economics in academia.

“Fred is a world-class scholar,” said Timothy J. Muris, former PROF. McCHESNEY chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, at McChesney’s investiture. “He is also a world-class individual.”

After ‘Free Palestine’ Chant, Classics Historian Prof Urges Listening to Both Sides Gleans Wisdom From Greco-Roman Politics

By LUCY XU

Sun Contributor

After the appearance of anti-Semitic posters last week at various locations across campus, students gathered on Wednesday to discuss antiSemitism and anti-Zionism on college campuses.

The controversial chant to “Free Palestine” at the faculty-led knee-in on the Arts Quad last month was also an important topic for many attendees.

Prof. Miriam Elman, political science, Syracuse University, led the discussion and said that there was a growing trend of anti-Semitism and argued that the anger toward white supremacy and the President Donald Trump’s administration has been “wrongly directed” at the IsraelPalestine issue and has fueled anti-Semitism.

“In the current climate, everyone is focusing on Trump, immigration and white supremacy and it is easy for them to piggyback off of the resistance that already exists against these topics,” Elman said.

She added that people are often misled into associating various topics with the wrong groups of people. She said that certain groups have been painted in a bad light, misdirecting anger and creating unnecessary tension among groups.

Elman cited last month’s chant led by Prof.

Russell Rickford, history, who was criticized by students and faculty after the knee-in.

Rickford has argued that the chant was an invocation of the violent occupation by Israeli forces of Palestinians in sections of the West Bank and the Gaza strip consistent with the protesters’ aim to resist white supremacy.

Rickford also said that his chant was neither anti-Semitic nor anti-Israel.

Elman said in response to the chant that Israel

has always fought to advance the cause of civil rights.

“The linking of Zionism to racist white supremacy is deeply offensive because Zionism has always been at the forefront of driving civil rights,” she said.

Bringing up the topic of pro-Palestinian groups, Elman highlighted how several of these organizations “deceptively claim support for peace” but do not back up those claims by action.

One of the organizations Elman mentioned was Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, a political group that is pressuring Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian land. The group receives support from Black Lives Matter, Jewish Voice for Peace and the American Studies Association, she said.

Elman offered possible solutions to alleviate misunderstanding and bias within schools.

She insisted that students demand faculty to present both sides of the arguments surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as opposed to simply pushing their own views onto their students.

“There is more than just one truth and, also, if they are going to convince you of their views, they must also present their critics as well,” Elman said. “You pay good money to come here so you have to take agency in what you are being taught.”

Ellman encouraged students to find allies in other groups of people who sympathize with their cause and urged students to continue standing up against bigotry.

“You have the rights to exercise your own free speech. You can call it out. You need to stand up and use your own free speech to counter their ugly with your better speech.”

Athens and the Roman Republic may have crumbled thousands of years before today’s ascension of elites, but Prof. Barry Strauss ’74, history, argues those ancient civilizations reveal that “building bridges is better than building walls.”

Strauss, an author of eight books and a historian of war, leadership and democracy, detailed the historical roots of populism dating back to ancient Athens and the Roman Republic at a lecture on Wednesday.

Dismantling the two most revered models for government — ancient Athens and ancient Rome — Strauss claimed both were models of “failure” in the ways that the elites balanced populist sentiments.

In this way, “the problem of populism is the problem of elitism,” Strauss said.

The failures illustrated in these classical settings, he said, can advise people today, especially in these polarizing times.

“My advice is that we seek a middle ground,” Strauss said.

“Bipartisanship certainly but also compromise. A recognition of both the grievances of “fly over” country and the two coasts. … That building bridges is better than building walls. And finally, a rededication to the ideals of citizenship and selfgovernment.”

The model of ancient Athens was “a story of failure,” he said, because of an “elite that tried to manipulate the people and pander to the people’s worst instincts.”

Ancient Rome too was a story of failure, he said, but for a different reason. He said Rome was run by an “elite that wouldn’t listen to the people and wouldn’t take account of their just grievances.”

From these classical models, Strass argued, the imbalance of the will of ordinary people and the elites can lead to disaster.

Skipping ahead a couple thousand years, Strauss noted similar imbalances in our society as well.

Many people feel “they have been left out of the boom while others have advanced,” he said,

noting a “general distrust of the elites and a doubt of their commitment to the common good.”

And from these grievances, populist movements have gotten stronger, he said, increasing the tension between the common people and the governing elites.

However, Strauss said there may be hope yet when he said that “wise elites will take populist movements as a wakeup call.”

“Instead of merely denouncing populism as false consciousness, or instead of adopting a ‘problem, what problem?’ attitude when faced with protests, they will inquire as to whether genuine grievances might underlie populism’s appeal,” Strauss said.

Strauss advocated for a greater connection between elites and the common people. With enhanced attention to the problems of the common people, the government can become more responsive to their needs and keep from devolving into a monarchical state as Rome did, for instance, he said.

Looking back to the classics, Strauss said that the ancient’s view of the necessity of leadership was coupled with nuances of balancing power and recognizing the consequences of one’s actions as a leader.

“Ancient democracy considered leadership by elites to be necessary to the proper functioning of a political system. It insisted on a constant give and take between the people and their leaders. In a word: it recognized balance,” Strauss said.

“Those who benefit from an elite education have a responsibility not just to make society richer, but to make it nobler,” he said.

With this recognition, elites can work to address the people’s grievances in a manner that aids the common good.

“The more just and astute the elite, the less angry the people,” Strauss said. “The more the elite treats politics like a big tent in which no one should be left out, the less likely they are to face populist challenges.”

Lilah Rosenfield ’20 expressed similar sentiments, emphasizing the need to listen to members of marginalized groups.

“That means listening to Jewish people about what our experience and what our understanding of anti-Semitism is,” she told The Sun. “That also means listening to the black members of our community, listening to the low-income folks in our community and really … hearing what our lived experiences have been.”

Rafael Jacobovitz ’20 urged students to continue to attend rallies and show their support for their peers.

Cancelling Puerto Rican Debt May Hurt Island, Says Johnson Prof KLARMAN

Continued from page 1

structural budget problems.”

The island has also been in a painful recession since 2006, which worsened as past governments have brought it deeper into debt by borrowing to pay for its operating expenses.

As a U.S. territory, Puerto Rico’s political status has precluded it from filing for bankruptcy, until Congress enacted an unprecedented law in 2016 that allowed bankruptcy-like proceedings, which faced backlash by some creditors, The New York Times reported in May. While it is widely accepted that Puerto Rico cannot sustain its existing levels of debt, some disagree on whether a reduction in its current obligations would affect its ability to borrow again and finance new projects, and Klarman and Karolyi’s comments reflect a tension in beliefs about Puerto Rico’s long-term restructuring strategy.

Namely, those who demand that Klarman’s hedge fund forgive its debt holdings have challenged the assumptions that underlie the financial perspective.

Chris Arcé ’19, co-president of the Puerto Rican Student Association, said that the idea that creditors would not invest in Puerto Rico if it cancelled its debts assumes Puerto Rico can pay back its debts now.

“It’s clear Puerto Rico can’t pay its debts back. There’s no reason for people to think the economy is going to get better with the current situation and policies,” he said.

Puerto Rico — with approximately $123 billion in debt and pension obligations — declared a form of bankruptcy in 2017, according to The New York Times report.

As fiscal and humanitarian problems escalate following the hurricane, reports of the Baupost Group’s bond holdings in Puerto Rico were followed by Cornell students’ calls to boycott or modify Klarman Hall, named after the billionaire, to physically acknowledge Puerto Rico’s connection to the building, The Sun previously reported.

As much of the island still has no electricity or running water, demands to forgive Puerto Rico’s outstanding obligations have

continued to mount in recent weeks. Around 50 Boston residents gathered on Saturday outside the office of the Baupost Group which holds nearly $1 billion of Puerto Rican debt, Boston University’s student-led Daily Free Press reported.

Protesters chanted, “Money for recovery, not Seth’s salary,” “Cancel the debt, Puerto Rico must be free,” and “Hey Seth, cancel the debt, don’t you have enough money yet?” according to The Free Press.

While the debate on whether

the Baupost Group should forgive Puerto Rican debt continues to be important for Arcé, he said that public awareness should be expanded to consider the broader humanitarian difficulties facing Puerto Ricans, including the constraints of its “colonial” status.

“Once Puerto Rico is treated equally under law, we’ll have a stronger economy when trying to manage the debt crisis,” he said, adding that restructuring efforts should focus on implementing better policies to

improve its business environment, public schools and hospitals needed for a stronger economy that is equitable for the impoverished.

Meanwhile, it appears unlikely that Klarman will forgive its debt holdings; Klarman has largely avoided controversy over his career and is known among investing circles for his discipline and substantial returns, CNBC reported John Yoon can be reached at jyoon@cornellsun.com.

hey tell you some of the first signs of drug abuse are social; a person changes their look, their friends, their personality. Maybe they become more irritable, or their whereabouts more mysterious. Addiction is a catalyst for subtle transformations, and often it’s the amalgamation of these little changes — not glaring red flags — that tip loved ones off.

In the past, I’ve seen shifts in my own friends from home, sometimes finding them more absent-minded, with new mannerisms and conversational reservations. It doesn’t even take a full-on tumble into hard drug abuse for one to seem a bit “off.”

When a habit overtakes your life, the people familiar with your life notice, regardless of whether the habit causes long-term physiological damage.

Today, I took a scroll through WebMD’s signs of drug addiction. One early sign is “You spend a lot of your time thinking about the drug.” Check.

Another: “You've lost interest in things you once liked to do.” Check.

“You look different.” A nice haircut and a fancy looking suit? Check.

“You have a new set of friends with whom you do drugs and go to different places to use the drugs.” Does the term preprofessional fraternity mean anything to you? Check.

There’s no question about it: the addiction is real. And we can’t just excuse it like my dear aunt Sally. The changes are visible and intrusive and they’re here to stay.

This pursuit didn’t engulf us overnight.

Letter to the Editor

Regarding New York State constitutional convention To the Editor: This Election Day, Nov. 7, 2017, there is a ballot question in New York State asking whether we should hold a convention to amend the State Constitution. I believe we should and thus advocate a ‘Yes’ vote, but I’m not going to expound upon why I think a convention would be a good idea. Instead, I’m going to ask you, the staff of your student paper, if you even knew about this possibility. For all the talk of Resistance, Make America Great Again, Hope and Change, Drain the Swamp, Black Lives Matter and Our RƎVO˩UTION, this Constitutional Convention provides an opportunity like no other to implement policies that could bring about reforms that we all know are needed, yet it does not seem like our state’s younger population has any knowledge of this event. Upon ratification of the U.S. Constitution in 1789, Benjamin Franklin was asked about the new government that was about to take power, and he stated that we had “A republic, if you can keep it.” Well, in order to keep our republic from continuing its devolution into an authoritarian oligarchy, we need an educated populace who are aware, engaged, and willing to express and debate their political beliefs. So do some research on both sides of the issue and decide for yourself whether you think a New York State Constitutional Convention is worthwhile, but at least try to get the discussion going amongst the student body of your institution so our generation can have a say in the future we’re inheriting.

Drug addiction can sometimes be a collective experience too. It’s always interesting to hear about drug hotspots in America — the rural counties out west where overdoses abound and politicians rack their brains to think up new drug policy ideas. Ithaca has at times been mentioned in conversations about these areas, as the burgeoning heroin epidemic seeps into the land above Cayuga’s waters.

The student body, however, is somehow removed, or at least thought to be removed, from this epidemic. Back home, most of us were the kids who either avoided drugs or didn’t let them affect too much of our lives.

Cocaine and MDMA and Xanax are more than easy to find on campus, but it seems that the drugs with the strongest grip on Cornell’s undergraduate community are the ones that supplement our greater addiction: the self-involved satisfaction of feeling that we’re making a future for ourselves.

For those who use them, Adderall just makes the intake easier and marijuana takes the edge off.

To call pre-professionalism a drug is certainly a stretch, but it’s a stretch I’m willing to make for the sake of an edgy column.

Merriam-Webster’s definition of a drug is a “substance that causes addiction, habituation, or a marked change in consciousness,” and if we’re liberal in our definition of “substance,” you’ve got pre-professionalism, case in point.

We need to be working toward a good career, and if that uneasy feeling you get when you see people in suits on their way to a networking event you aren’t attending is any indication, this pursuit is the stuff of a bona fide dependency.

drug in high school. You had good grades and leadership positions and people in your life who told you you’d make it big someday. You’ve been spoon-fed this narrative that you’re bound to succeed. Told, likely in more opaque terms, that you’ll get a good job one day and probably make good money.

Now you want to prove them right, but if this were just a casual desire, you’d be comforted by all the stories of successful adults who didn’t start their careers at Fortune 500 companies. Instead, you probably disregard those stories like I do, because you don’t just want a good job one day; you’re addicted to this search for one.

You obviously don’t really need an impressive junior year internship, but addicts don’t think rationally about what they really need. Addiction, or at least the psychological aspect of it anyway, is fundamentally a disregard for rationality.

But despite all the stress and mental anguish we’ve been subjected to as we chase the next high, we don’t care that we’re addicted. It’s one of the few things that bring us together around here.

Other schools have sports or four-year housing or regional affinity. We have our obsessions with pre-professionalism and the junkie network that forms around this obsession.

And I’m OK with that — as long as it comes with a cushy job in the end.

OPINION

Sarah Lieberman | Blueberries for Sal

It’s Not Okay, But I Forgive You

F

orgiveness is taught to us from a young age as a virtue. Just as we are instructed to say, “I’m sorry,” we learn to follow with, “It’s okay.” It’s an instinct.

Forgive and forget — not just for politeness but for selfcare too. I so much want to forget the things in my life that have made me feel the worst, but not all of them

won’t be complete without it. Firstly, Michelle Jones is a woman of color. It’s necessary to include this detail because we don’t live in a color-blind society, so this fact inevitably contributed to the politicization of her career and her education. Secondly, Jones suffered severe childhood abuse, and her son was the product of being raped a teenager.

It’s not as simple as we might want to make it.

It’s not always about good guys and bad guys.

And even if it were, we’d probably instantly throw someone who murdered her own child into the category of “irreconcilably bad.”

But, don’t we as a society believe in forgiveness? So where do we draw the line between the blessed and the unforgivable? Harvard University drew it right across Jones’s graduate school application.

After being accepted into Harvard’s elite history program, Jones’s acceptance was rescinded by some higherups with serious concerns. Among them was, inexplicably, “What will Fox News think?” I have to say, when it comes to the complexities of Jones’s eligibility, I don’t understand how Fox News could be a legitimate factor.

Regardless, Jones was turned away from the Ivy League.

Given her circumstances, it’s no surprise that she didn’t let this stop her and is now studying at NYU. So, the question becomes, are people forgiven because they have repented, served their time and proven themselves forgivable? Or are people forgiven because their offenses are small enough to be overlooked? In practice, I think it’s a combination of the two, but I believe that ideologically, we should base our forgiveness on reformation of character, following

So, the question becomes, are people forgiven because they have repented, served their time and proven themselves forgivable? Or are people forgiven because their offenses are small enough to be overlooked? appear worthy of forgiveness. In a way, it feels as if “moving on” would require invalidating my feelings, knowing that some sort of sadness or betrayal occurred and letting it be anyhow. I believed forgiveness was good on a fundamental level, but I felt more fickle about it when it came to my everyday life. Michelle Jones challenged everything I thought about forgiveness.

A PhD candidate at New York University, Jones was recently released from prison for the murder of her fouryear-old son. When Jones was given a second chance, she built a second world — a world in which she was an accomplished academic, a playwright and a success story. She had been successfully rehabilitated while processed through the prison system. This is what we all want, right? Not mere punishment but some important personal change, too. But the reality of justice in America is illuminated in Jones’ story; her sentence has not ended just because she is not behind bars.

There are a few things I have to say because her story

action and objectivity.

In any situation, given that forgiveness is being asked for, it can be assumed that something “bad” was done.

Instead of getting caught up in the subjectivity of relative badnesses, we can focus on what happened after the bad act, what the person did to reform their behavior or, if possible, repair the consequences of their actions.

I think that we are all able to forgive Michelle Jones.

I think we are all wise and empathetic and morally/psychologically complicated enough to do this. When we tell ourselves otherwise, we are not just short-changing ourselves — restricting the absolute breadth of the human ability to forgive — but in this specific case, we are also holding back the knowledge available in the world, making it straight and narrow minded by neglecting perspectives and experience that we will never be able to personally understand. We can forgive without being able to say, “it’s okay” — without it ever being okay. Humans can grow, and move on, and learn and change, and they can do this without everything in their past being “okay.”

One last disclaimer: what Jones did was horrific and unimaginable. But so was her life before the incident.

Show me a Harvard administrator who suffered the misery that Jones experienced in her pregnancy, and I will deem them as amply appropriate to judge her. Just like everyone else that we have ever met, we will never understand what she has gone through, so we rightfully will never be able to understand what she did. We have no right to say her life is unredeemable.

Jones did something that almost any of us would immediately deem unforgivable, but she spent 20 long years proving that she is worthy of the life she has nobly built out of terror and tragedy. She is not a saint, but I don’t believe sainthood should be required for admittance into higher education. I believe the doors should be open to those who have seen the worst and felt the worst but pressed on to pursue education anyhow.

Gaby Leung | Serendipitous Musings

I

Two Roads Diverged, and I Panicked

consider myself a highly emotional person — when taking Enneagram or Myer Briggs Personality Types tests, I choose the most extreme answer when it comes to talking about my emotions.

Would I consider myself highly stable? No. Do I mainly react to situations based on my emotions? That’s a given.

It’s coming to a point in my life when I’ve seen, or felt, people’s emotions running equally as high as mine. Aside from finding satisfaction in the sudden stimulation of other’s feelings, it’s comforting to know that I’m not alone in feeling this odd mixture of nervousness, excitement, despair and existentialism.

As I’ve entered my first semester of junior year as a 20-year-old, I’ve found myself having a similar conversation with others over and over again. It’s about knowing that we’re no longer teenagers who can find excuses for almost anything, but that we also don’t have enough knowledge — or experience with the world — to be considered a real adult. We’re applying for jobs and going to interviews, but also dealing with friend drama, jealous exes, and the “this feels like a misfire” comment written on top of your paper by the professor.

It’s interesting the way time changes depending on how old you are. When I was younger, 16 seemed like the golden age. It was the age when you could have your sweet 16 and take your driver’s test; an age of sweet high school nostalgia, complete with football games, slamming lockers and hidden crushes. And then 18 seemed like the age to strive for: as a real adult, the freedoms seemed endless. I could get a tattoo or piercing without parental consent and

finally vote in the election (even though the results of this newfound freedom were absolutely terrifying). And then 21 seemed like the golden age — for the most obvious reasons.

Up until this point, we’ve had distinct events in our lives that signal a significant age has passed. We’ve had SATs and proms, college applications and college decisions. But now we’re closer to seeing the inevitable void of time stretched out in front of us.

Sure, there are jobs and internships to apply to, and we have some kind of understanding of what we think (or want) to happen.

But soon, there won’t be a distinct plan for us to follow. Not that there was always a plan laid out for us, but there was a general direction we headed in to get where we are now. Some of my friends shared similar sentiments.

“I just turned 20 and its felt different than any other age. When I was 19, I was still youthful. Now I’m just one of the 20year-olds that exist.”

“When I was younger, I thought that when you were in your 20s, you’d have most things planned out. I’m 20, and I have nothing planned out.”

“At 15, I had ideals of what it would be like to have things in your 20s or so. You know, have a girlfriend and a ton of friends.

Go to parties. But like also, have a good job or something. I have a lot of those now and it’s not what I thought it would be...they all

just seemed like ideals to me.”

“I feel like I’m ready to be an adult, but no one is treating me like one. Like, I’m definitely past that teenager stage, and I’m ready to go into the ‘real world,’ but I’m stuck.”

“Being 20 sucks.”

“I can feel the passing of time now. I

imagine what it’ll be like to have my actions and words become detached and distanced from the events that are occurring.

All I can do while I navigate these feelings is build relationships with people I care for, and even those I was hesitant to deal with before. Relationships ground me;

Up until this point, we’ve had distinct events in our lives that signal a significant age has passed. We’ve had SATs and proms, college applications and college decisions. look back on high school more like a distant memory. Even my freshman year self seems like a nostalgic past being. I’m starting to feel all the responsibilities of what it’s like to exist outside of this bubble we’ve created for ourselves and it’s scary.”

Halfway through college, and I’ve had more and more conversations about what the hell we’re doing now. It scares me to think that because I’m studying abroad next semester, I’ll have one semester left on this campus before coming back for the final two. With so much happening recently, it’s hard for me to think about leaving.

Important issues are being raised (as painful and hurtful as some are) and I can’t

I go back to them when time seems daunting and endless. I can throw myself more into classes, knowing that after I leave, I’ll never be forced to read Debord’s Society of the Spectacle, and realize that I do, in fact, believe that the living have become increasingly replaced by representations. I can feel more at ease trying to take advantage of every night and day here, knowing that the fear I have about lost time and the unknown future is just part of being 20.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT When I Worked for the Greatest Website in the World

T

he fact that, back in high school, I was very, very smart and knew many more things than a lot of other people is indisputable. While I certainly read more books, watched more movies and generally thought about more interesting things than pretty much all of my classmates, what I was most proud of was my music taste, which was impeccable, unsurpassable and precisely cultivated. To put it bluntly, I was much better listened than you or anybody else.

Anybody else, that is, except for one man: the prolific music critic, even more prolific blogger, part-time poet, full-time hiker, politically enigmatic historian, dubious scientist, insatiable and indiscriminate (and, in all likelihood, prevaricative) consumer of media, insidious/inescapable online meme and — most importantly — my one-time employer, Piero Scaruffi.

Known on the internet over for his, um, uncommon takes on the history of rock and popular music, Piero first wandered into my life while I was doing research for my final project in a "History of Rock" class. For this project, each student had to adorn one section of the Music Room's wall with an edificatory mural on some rock-related topic of their choosing.

While my lowly classmates picked such artists as Queen, Rush, Britney Spears or the Rolling Stones, my undying precocity and pedantry led me to immortalize on my scant, sheer white facade an album which, as I would soon discover, had already been immortalized (for reasons that now, shockingly, seem even more pedantic than my own) on the hallowed, mustard-and-wallpaper-colored webpages of Piero's own website, as the most Scarufficore album of all time: Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band's Trout Mask Replica.

At the time that I picked my poison, what

I already knew is that Trout Mask is a hideous, fascinating hour and a half of avant-rock/outsider music from old Frank Zappaclassmate/affiliate Don van Vliet. It had snuck its way onto my radar somewhere between the ages of 12 and 13, when the complete unlikelihood of its abject cover art immediately caught my edgy eye during a scroll through Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time," where it rests (inexplicably) at number 60, between a CCR compilation CD and Sly Stone's Greatest Hits.

But Piero, as I was soon to learn, values Beefheart and the Band's opus quite a bit more than the Rolling Stone Magazine. In

Troy Sherman Troy to the World fact, he thinks that it is, unequivocally, the greatest rock music album of all time, only one of three to be worthy of a score of 9.5 out of 10 on his website, resting at the coveted peak of his "Best Rock Albums of All Times" list.

I loved it.

But that was only just the beginning.

On top of the bottomless piles of thoughtephemera and the endless ranked lists of books, poems, movies and paintings that can be found at any one of www.scaruffi.com's more than 10,000 pages, Piero has ranked tens of thousands of popular music albums, from those of Kemialliset Ystavat to Kanye West, Brothers of the Occult Sisterhood to (famously) the Beatles. 15 year-old Troy — with what felt like a string coming down from the sky mechanically pulling his nose upwards at all things popular, famous, obvious or liked —

was more than just interested; he was enthralled.

I spent hours wading through Piero's opinions, sitting, at his website's behest, through insufferable experiment after unlistenable attempt, all of which the internet's original Edgelord peddled as the truest art which rock's put forth since Elvis swung his hips (or not, if we take Scaruffi's revisionist word for it). A lot of it was awful, a good deal unlistenable and damn near inaccessible, but I internalized it in the name of transcending those silly folks I walked by in the halls, or on the street who hadn't ever heard of Vampire Rodents, Half-Machine Lip Moves, Holger Czukay or Cyclops Nuclear Submarine Captain.

It soon became clear that the utter transcendence from normie culture, which I craved, wasn't to be attained simply by listening to an experimental album or two (or 300).

I soon realized I had to go straight to the source.

That is, after a year of dedicated, unwavering Scaruffi-ing, I decided it was time to send the man an email. Mustering up my courage and compiling a mental list of facts with which I could impress him, I sent a note to the address which he provided on the “New Media Internships” section of his website, proclaiming myself a “disciple” and asking how I could get involved in his site. Less than a day later, something curious popped up in my inbox: an unread email from one “piero .·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·..·´¯`·. scaruffi.” In the blink of an eye, I had gone from being some nobody high school junior to an intern at “The Greatest Website of All Time.”

Translating the more crucial sections of Piero's site from Italian into English, I was hindered only by the fact that I didn't know a lick of Italian, but was able to rectify this through (in Mr. Scaruffi's own words from the three-sentence letter of recommendation he

wrote for my Common App) "using high technology, knowledge of Latin languages, access to Italian speakers and common sense."

In other words, I put his articles through Google Translated and then heavily edited them. Sometimes I asked my Italian friend Bianca for help.

The whole goofy schtick lasted for about a year and half, maybe less. And while I could draw some conclusions and make some claims, I don't know if this is the place to do that. Off the top of my head, the fact that, oh, his top 100 rock albums contain (by my count) fewer than 20 women and absolutely no people of color, or that his Lemonade review complains of Beyoncé’s status as "an industry artifact with no personality," should be proof enough that Scaruffi is fruit hanging low enough that it might as well be buried underground. The degree to which his hot takes are out of touch with the role and vitality of pop(ular) music in 2017 is honestly mindboggling, which is what makes his work — which more often than not seems like it was written by a hermit who has albums shipped to his cave rather than a well-travelled Stanford affiliate with Silicon Valley interests and an enormous online following — so deliciously meme-able. It may be true — but it must be too obvious — that his writing amounts to everything that's wrong with music criticism taken to its most absurd and regrettable apotheosis. Who knows.

What I do know — and know for sure — is this: the fact that so many books still name Piero Scaruffi as “the greatest,” or “most significant,” or “most influential” music critic ever only tells you how far music criticism is from becoming a serious art.

Chris Savino, Cartoon Brew, and How NOT to Respond to Sexual Violence

BY DAVID GOULDTHORPE Sun Staff Writer

If you read the news, you’ve heard of the unfolding scandal with Harvey Weinstein. It’s put a spotlight on show business, demonstrating the rampant sexual harassment that occurs throughout the industry. More producers are now facing allegations, and, sadly, the animation industry that I love is not immune to sexual harassment. Chris Savino, the creator of Nickelodeon’s hit show The Loud House, was suspended from the show last week over allegations of sexual harassment. Twelve women came forward and recounted instances, stretching over the past decade, of Savino making unwanted advances and threatening to blacklist them if they spoke out. He has since apologized, but has been terminated from the company. The show will continue production without him.

That’s not what I want to focus on, though.

Instead, I want to focus on a website called Cartoon Brew, and how it has handled the whole situation. For those not familiar with the industry, Cartoon Brew is considered the top source of animation news. It is also rather unpopular with many animators for the belligerent tone that it often takes. Run by Amid Amidi, Cartoon Brew does deserve credit for breaking the Chris Savino story. Controversy

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

erupted, however, in a Facebook comment where the site’s official page stated that anyone still working on The Loud House was helping to perpetuate the brainchild of a sexual predator, and called it “an untenable situation.”

The backlash has been fierce. Dana Terrace, an influential animator who works on the new DuckTales, replied, “how about don't blame the employees for doing their jobs, @cartoonbrew?” Others replied affirmatively, pointing out that a show is made by a whole group of people and not just the showrunner. It was also noted that taking that action would punish the very people that Savino harmed, and they shouldn’t have to shoulder the responsibility for his bad behavior. The majority agree that it’s “wrongheaded and unproductive.”

Samantha King also called it a “bad take” on Cartoon Brew’s part. King’s comment carries extra weight because of her work on Clarence, a Cartoon Network show, the creator of which (Skyler Page) was also terminated after allegations of sexual assault. Clarence still proceeded with production, and went on to two more seasons after Page’s termination.

What’s going on here? Well, to give Cartoon Brew the benefit of the doubt, I’d say that they do indeed want justice. However, their definition of “justice” involves the complete erasure of Savino’s work. It’s a goal that I can sympathize with, but cannot agree with.

To pull the plug on the show, especially so

abruptly and with nothing else to replace it, is to put many people out of work — including those that Savino sexually assaulted. Cartoon Brew implies that work can be easily found elsewhere in the industry. Anyone who knows even the slightest bit about show business can tell you that that assumption is horrendously wrong. Cancelling The Loud House would only pile further pain and stress on those already affected by Savino’s actions.

I did mention that this is a “benefit of the doubt” scenario, though. If Cartoon Brew were simply on a noble, but misguided search for justice then I could forgive them. But, on their Facebook page, they’ve been actively deleting comments made by the crew of the show. They want to discuss what to do in the wake of sexual assault without actually talking to anyone who was or would be affected.

Other animators label him “a bully who masquerades as an authority.” The Rise and Fall of Nickelodeon, a page also dedicated to animation news, sums it up best: “as someone who has talked to plenty of staff on that show, all women by the way who are super proud of the job they've done, it sickens me.”

So, I counter Cartoon Brew’s idea of “justice” with my own concept. Instead of the destruction of anything related to the perpetrator, we should instead work on healing those affected. One man does not define an entire show: teams of dozens, hundreds of

people who put everything they have into making The Loud House come to life, and they want to keep going to redefine the show without Savino’s presence. To demand they quit their jobs is to say, “YOU have to deal with what someone else did to you, and make YOUR lives even harder, and if you don’t then you’re a bad person.” Even if they didn’t work in an industry as competitive as entertainment, to say that to people who already suffered a crime is immoral and shameful.

The lessons here go beyond animation, beyond show business. If you are a third party in a sexual assault case, if you are a manager or coworker who is approached in confidence, do not make life harder for those affected by sexual violence. The attitude around reporting is turbulent and changing; we need people who will take steps forward, and not take steps backward. Sadly, it appears that Amid Amidi and the rest of the Cartoon Brew crew are determined to take steps backward. Don’t do that.

Listen to people who come to you for help.

Figure out what they want and need. Don’t shame them or pressure them into ruining their lives. It’s all part of being a decent person, which seems so rare these days.

Red Hosts Chargers to Open 2017-18 Season In first matchup since 2010, Schafer ’86 and his team seek first two wins against Alabama-Huntsville MEN’S HOCKEY

continued from page 20

“It’s my fourth time starting the season here, and I know the importance of getting off on the right foot and how you’ve got to be prepared for that no matter what team’s coming in,” he said.

Though not a big-name opponent, AlabamaHuntsville is a team Schafer knows has strong abilities and is looking to continue to prove itself on the national stage.

“They compete really, really hard, they’re wellcoached, they’ve gone on the road into three tough places to play already this year, so this will be a big challenge for us,” Schafer said. “We need to be ready for them, ready for the physicality [and] ready to make plays quickly.”

Forwards Josh Kestner and Tyler Poulsen have paced the Chargers’ offensive attack, each with three goals so

far this season.

Through four games, the team from the South has amassed 17 power play opportunities and netted five goals with the man advantage. The Chargers also, however, have been penalized 26 times through four games.

“We need to be ready for them, ready for the physicality [and] ready to make plays quickly.”

Head Coach Mike Schafer ’86 “[We’re preparing] for a team that on special teams will have a little bit more savvy than we do,” Schafer said.

Though an unusual opponent, the Red has taken on the Chargers four times at Lynah before, posting a 3-01 record, with the last matchup coming in 2010.

This time around, Cornell will need “back-to-back efforts on both nights,” according to Schafer, to pick up wins this weekend.

“If we play well on Friday, we leave it. If we play poorly on Friday, we leave it, and we get ready to go back the next day and play extremely hard and for 120 minutes all weekend,” Schafer said.

Preparing for his final season opener, Fiegl will still be amazed by “how loud it is, the energy, especially when you start to get momentum going, you hear the fans behind you. Four years down the road that’s still something special.”

the same motivational level, but the root cause is different.”

But this year, deep in a campaign the team has labeled “The Revenge Tour” — trying to flip tough losses from last year into wins — Cornell has already avenged one of the Brown-Princeton losses, blowing out the Bears this past weekend on Homecoming With the heartache of last year’s crushing loss to the Tigers still fresh in mind, the Red will look to add another victim to its revenge tour Saturday night on national television at Princeton against the Ivy League’s most potent offense.

Fueling the Red leading into the weekend bout is a renewed confidence that comes with the first 2-1 league start since 2000, making it the first time the clash against Princeton has had a real bearing on Ivy League standings since before Archer came to Cornell as a student.

To become 3-1, Cornell will have to

“We’ve just totally stunned the run unlike the past and we just have to keep that going.”

Sophomore Jordan Landsman cool off the most threatening team in the Ancient Eight. Owners of the top scoring offense in the league with 40.7 points per game, the Tigers have notched at least 50 points in their last three games, including a 52-7 shellacking of Harvard last Friday in a battle of preseason No. 1 teams. Princeton has scored at least 24 points in every game this season, while Cornell has done so just twice.

“I don’t think we played well enough against Brown to beat Princeton,“ Seggebruch said. “[Saturday’s] going to be a big bar for our defense to see where we are at.”

Cornell, on the other hand, owns the top total defense in the league, giving up 308.7 yards per game, including just 161 to Brown on Saturday.

“We’ve just totally stunned the run unlike the past and we just have to keep

that going and get pressure on the quarterback,” said sophomore defensive lineman Jordan Landsman.

Landsman and the defensive line will go up against a Princeton starting five that has given up just six sacks on the year, second lowest in the league.

Princeton’s defense is no joke, either.

The Tigers are tied with Yale for the top scoring defense in the league, both allowing just 18.2 points per game.

Princeton also boasts the top rush defense in the league, giving up only 71.5 yards per game on the ground — third in the FCS. But the Tigers severely lack at pass defense, sitting last in the category with 280.5 yards against per game in the air. The Tigers may be without reigning Bushnell Cup finalist, allAmerican and first-team All-Ivy defensive lineman Kurt Holuba, which would allow Cornell junior quarterback Dalton Banks to let plays develop more.

The offensive line, the position on the team with the least starting experience, has begun to put the pieces together on run blocking. Asked if the same can be done for pass blocking against Princeton, junior center J. Edward Keating bluntly said, “Of course, yes. Simple answer.”

“With good leadership and playing a lot of games together it has brought us together as a unit,” Keating added.

“Instead of worrying about what plays to call, everyone now knows what to do. We get to hammer down and hit people which creates holes pretty easily.”

As a team, Cornell will face its biggest test at the most pivotal point in the season with the NBC cameras rolling and the Princeton floodlights shining.

Regardless, the extra novelty of this game is “going to bring extra juice to the team,” Landsman said. “It doesn’t really get better than that for us. We really love it.”

Kickoff is at 7 p.m. from Princeton’s raucous Powers Field, streaming on NBC Sports.

road environments already under their belt, Alabama-Huntsville will not be bothered by the hostile Lynah Rink crowd. Having led for parts of the Notre Dame series and won at Michigan Tech, this team will battle the Red. Cornell will be playing their first official game of the season after the Red/White scrimmage and two exhibition clashes, so the Red will be rusty while the Chargers already have competitive experience against some of the best teams in the country. Cornell should be wary of Huntsville being in better game shape and coming out strong.

Also, there is uncertainty to Cornell’s lineup. Forward Anthony Angello and defenseman Cody Haiskanen saw ice time in the Red/White scrimmage after both sat out last weekend’s exhibitions. With Angello back, Cornell could play a top line of Angello, Mitch Vanderlaan and Trevor Yates. Brendan Smith, Ryan Bliss and Dwyer Tschantz are the only

Cornell players who have not skated in either weekend’s games and thus look unlikely to begin the year in the lineup.

Many of the freshmen forwards had strong starts to the exhibition season, and Cam Donaldson, Morgan Barron and Tristan Mullin represent strong candidates to dress for their first game at Lynah Rink. On defense, Matt Cairns and Alex Green seem certain to be included in the lineup as well.

Senior Hayden Stewart should get the start in net.

Cornell will take on AlabamaHuntsville this weekend, trying to kick off the season with two wins. The Red is a deeper and more talented team than Alabama-Huntsville, and Cornell’s improved team speed this year will allow the home squad to attack the Chargers in transition. The visitors have game experience on their side and may open the scoring on Friday night, but expect Cornell to emerge victorious at the end of both games this weekend.

What Makes Cornell “Tower Above the Rest”?

By AIDEN KOLODZIEJ Sun Contributor

Y

ou’re just over halfway through the semester and let’s face it: that RPCC beef lo mein with sweet honey soy sauce and those copious amounts of Cornell ice cream, aka flavored butter, are starting to catch up to you. Despite what you may think, it’s not too late to get back on the right track, and that’s just what Risley Dining is all about.

Risley Dining, tucked away in the castle-like Risley Residential College, serves up the finest, freshest food on campus. From its daily offerings of huevos rancheros and nachos to its stir-fry and poke bowl station, Risley Dining provides students a wide range of tasty and healthy options. At the same time, Risley caters to those with serious food allergies, offering food that is 100 percent peanut-free, treenutfree and gluten-free. Risley’s ability to make great-tasting, allergen-free food has created a lot of buzz around campus and has left many wondering: How do they do it?

In an interview with Kevin Grant, the manager of Risley Dining, he explained that cooking gluten-free is actually “really easy.”

It’s all about “clean eating and raw ingredients.”

Indeed, the fact that Risley is gluten-free may be the very reason why it offers such high-quality food: “We use a lot less prefabbed food because we have to and that adds to our quality” said Grant.

While cooking gluten-free is easy, it’s finding the right ingredients that poses a challenge.

Sourcing the ingredients, according to Grant, is “easily the hardest part.”

When Risley became glutenfree, the dining hall had to switch many of its suppliers because they produced ingredients in facilities that contained major allergens.

Those with gluten allergies will be relieved to know that Risley tests all its ingredients down to 5 ppm (parts-per-million). This ensures that the concentration of gluten in a product is low enough not to cause any allergic reactions.

However, some people, after

RESTAURANT

HOME OF THE

SUN FILE PHOTO

eating one of Risley’s delicious and artfully crafted cupcakes, may still have their doubts about Risley being truly gluten-free.

How can Risley’s moist, voluptuous cupcakes possibly not contain an ounce of gluten? But rest assured, these cupcakes are safe for celiacs.

The secret? Fresh fruit.

As Grant explained, “A lot of the desserts are fruit-based, which keeps the moisture in the desserts.”

The quality of food at Risley is a testament to the high quality of living Cornell provides its students. Kevin’s crew consists of “former head chefs of catering companies, former head chefs of restaurants, etcetera who love good quality food.” It’s no surprise then that Risley consistently serves up creative, great-tasting dishes, from roasted turkey topped with mole sauce to spinach frittatas.

Equally creative are the themed dinners Risley hosts, which further spice up the dining experience.

Those who eat at Risley can look forward to a “Game of Thrones” themed dinner coming up on November 16th. According to Grant, the dinner will feature a giant red wedding cake and live performances by the fight scene reenactment club “Ring of Steel.”

Overall, Grant works to make Risley more than just a place to

quickly refuel: “We get to know the students here personally, we enjoy being a part of the experience here at Cornell.”

At the end of the day, Grant is happy to know that “people who have a tough time finding food

that’s safe for them can come to Risley, and all worry goes out the window.”

of 4-2. UAH has a 1-3 record on the season, dropping a two-game set at Notre Dame and the other game against Michigan Tech last weekend. They are in the midst of playing their first eight games of the season all away from home. Still, winning one of those four tough road games represents a decent start from what is typically a struggling Charger squad.

Cornell will be favored to sweep UAH, and they will need to do so in order to maintain national respect. Cornell has a very weak non-conference schedule this year; in seven non-conference games, four are against traditionally poor teams. These include the two games against UAH and one each against Niagara and Canisius.

Cornell also plays two games against Miami (Ohio), which the Red should handle but could prove tricky. Only the Boston University clash at Madison Square Garden represents a non-conference game where Cornell is a clear underdog. Thus, there is little opportunity to impress pollsters with a big win this season, only chances to disappoint with a shocking loss.

A major factor this weekend will be game experience. With four games in tough See LINSEY page 18

Red to Square off Against Princeton on National TV

Plastered on the walls of the Cornell football locker room are the numbers “56-7,” a reminder of the shortcomings in last year’s 49-point demolishing at the hands of Princeton that has since been seared into the minds of each player.

“I don’t think we played well enough against Brown to beat Princeton.”

Junior Reis Seggebruch “That’s definitely the most embarrassing thing I’ve been a part of at this university,” said junior linebacker Reis Seggebruch, who led the team

with 12 tackles in last year’s game against Princeton. “We want to get revenge for that obviously and to do that on their field will be nice to get back at them there.”

This time last year, Cornell was in the midst of some of its most mentally strenuous play in recent history. The team followed a heartbreaking double overtime loss to Brown with the loss at home to Princeton — two very different games which brought very different, but equally disappointing sentiments into the heart of the team.

“While the one was heartbreaking, the other was demoralizing,” said head coach David Archer ’05. “Both of them get their own flavor of a revenge that’s wanted. They end up with See FOOTBALL page 18
