As the Ebola crisis continues to rage in Western Africa, Cornell has a multi-faceted role in addressing Ebola, both locally and abroad, according to President David Skorton.

Skorton said in an interview with The Sun Wednesday that the whole University — not just the Ithaca campus — has an obligation to address the threat of the Ebola. One of those roles, he said, is to properly prepare employees at the New York-Presbyterian Hospital, which is affiliated with Weill Cornell Medical College and one of eight hospitals in New York State designated to treat the deadly disease.

“One role we have is to make sure that our employees, including but not limited to physicians, our students and our postgraduate trainees who are employees at the hospital … are cognizant of Ebola, how to discover it, how to diagnose it, how to support the patient and treat it … and how

Univ.Continues Solar Energy Push Through Proposed Project

By ANNIE BUI Sun News Editor

Further demonstrating its commitment to a sustainable future, Cornell announced a proposal to build a 10acre solar farm on University-owned property in Seneca, New York, Thursday.

The announcement comes on the heels of the completion of Cornell’s first large-scale solar energy project — Snyder Road Solar Farm — which went live in September.

The proposed two-megawatt solar farm, which is still pending approval from the town of Seneca, will offset “nearly 40 percent” of the annual demand generated by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, according to a University press release.

The solar photovoltaic panel array will use the New

York State Electric and Gas’ remote net metering program, which will allow the University to “receive credit for the electricity the project adds to the grid,” according to the release. This will then allow Cornell to offset consumption at its other locations.

Farm, which is located near the Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport.

Burr went on to explain the impact that the University’s second large-scale solar project will have on the Geneva campus.

Shared Governance Important During Transitions,Skorton Says

By CHRISTOPHER BYRNS Sun Staff Writer

President David Skorton spoke before the Student Assembly Thursday about his desire to work with the assembly and other shared governance groups on campus to form a list of priorities to work toward before the end of his term.

Skorton, who will leave at the end of June to helm the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., emphasized the important role that shared governance groups play at the University, “especially during transitions,” referring to the number of administrators who will leave before the start of the next academic year.

“In general the continuity of the University is out there in the student body [and] in the employee ranks, and so I’ve already shared with President-Elect Garrett — who I think is really going to be terrific — the importance of shared governance in our culture,” Skorton said.

At least four administrators will step down from their current positions by next fall: Skorton; Susan Murphy ’73 Ph.D. ’94, vice president for student and academic services; Provost Kent Fuchs; and Harry Katz, dean of the School of Industrial and Labor Relations — who will become interim provost this month as Fuchs prepares to step See SKORTON page 4

IFC Takes Steps To Combat Sexual Violence at C.U.

Shooting under fire

By OLIVIA LUTWAK Sun Staff Writer

Over the past week, the Interfraternity Council has taken steps toward targeting and starting the conversation about salient issues on campus — particularly those surrounding sexual violence.

According to IFC President Cameron Pritchett ’15, the IFC unanimously passed a resolution Oct. 29 that requires all chapters to host in-house trainings on topics of alcohol and consent education and bystander intervention.

The resolution states that all fraternities that wish to be eligible to host social events must have at least 75 percent house attendance at an in-house or in-person training, according to a document provided by the IFC. The trainings will be carried out by campus organizations such as Cayuga’s Watchers, ConsentEd, Wingman 101 and the Women’s Resource Center.

Garrison Lovely ’16, president of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, said he believes that training for all fraternity members will aid in recognizing potentially critical situations and will empower members to “intervene when necessary.”

“I don’t believe my brothers contribute to a culture of sexual violence, but passivity can allow terrible things to happen,” Lovely said.

Members of the IFC also took to social media to voice their stance against sexual assault on campus this week, uploading a video to YouTube that featured fraternity members stating why they are choosing to stand against it.

According to Pritchett, the idea for the video came about when members of the council decided that it was time for “voices of chapter leaders to be heard” on the topic of sexual assault.

“In the past, silence has been deafening,” Pritchett said.

“For me, this is a matter of safety. No person should fear

being sexual[ly] assaulted in any environment — let alone on a campus intended to educate the world’s brightest minds.”

The video — which was uploaded Tuesday — borrows statistics from the United States Department of Justice, stating that fewer than five percent of completed and attempted rapes of college women are reported to law enforcement.

Lovely said he joined the movement in order to dispel the myth that “fraternities foster a culture of sexual violence against women.”

“I believe that Greek men need to publicly recognize this criticism and dispel it through active steps to prevent sexual assault and eliminate the culture that fosters it,” he said.

According to a Justice Department statistic shown in the video, 19 percent of undergraduate women reported experiencing attempted or completed sexual assault since entering college.

Spencer Nord ’16, IFC vice president of University and community relations, said he believes these statistics are “frightening” not only from a personal view, but also from the perspective of the IFC in general.

“The IFC decided to make a video standing against sexual assault because we see ourselves as leaders who have the ability to impact changes here at Cornell and beyond,” Nord said. “The video is a great way to show members of the Cornell community — inside and outside of Greek life — that sexual assault will not be tolerated.”

The IFC also takes part in the “No More” campaign — a national campaign in which celebrities, athletes and other recognizable figures explain the need for an end to sexual violence, according to Pritchett. The campaign was replicated on campus last semester, featuring members of the Greek community holding signs describing why the individuals say “no more” to sexual violence.

New Kroch Library Exhibition Documents Cornell History

By SAMANTHA ACRICHE Sun Staff Writer

In celebration of Cornell’s sesquicentennial, the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections is presenting an exhibition entitled “150 Ways to Say Cornell” — which includes items such as original University documents, newspaper articles, photographs and Cornell “essentials.”

The exhibit — which began last month — is being showcased in Carl A. Kroch Library through next September, according to University Archivist Elaine Engst.

Engst said that pieces in the exhibition were organized by themes — among them athletics, women, coeducation, publications, international programs and Cornell keepsakes.

She added that one of the more “significant” pieces being showcased is the original charter of the University. Because it is fragile, Engst said, it cannot be on display all the time.

“We had it in for TrusteeALEJANDRO HERNANDEZ / SUN STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

Happy birthday | Select items on display as part of the “150 Ways to Say Cornell” exhibit in Kroch Library are pictured in the above vignettes.

Council Weekend, and we will have it at [special] events over the course of the year,” she said.

Engst also said that most of the items presented are originals, which were obtained from existing collections at the library.

The contents of the sesquicentennial exhibit will evolve during the time it is displayed, explaining that different items will be showcased at different events, according to Engst.

“The exhibit is actually going to change over time,” she said. “At the end of January, we are also commemorating the big thing[s] that happened in 1865 along with Cornell’s charter being signed in Albany … the signing of the 13th Amendment, the end of the Civil War and the assassination of Lincoln.”

With regards to planning the exhibition, Engst said she began to think of ways to honor Cornell’s 150-year anniversary around five years ago.

“We talked about the possibility of a library exhibit, which would commemorate the event,” Engst said. “It just seemed like a really good time to reflect on the history of the University.”

According to Engst, work on the project began three years ago

when the Library Sesquicentennial Committee and the Rare and Manuscript Collections Committee began meeting regularly.

However, she said the most “intensive work” took place during the past four months.

“We met every week to discuss and brainstorm,” said Eileen Keating, university records manager.

During this time, Engst said curators carefully picked out the items that would be showcased.

“Curators came up with suggestions, discussed with[in] groups, added, subtracted [and] changed [the collection],” she said.

Engst said she believed that picking the items to showcase in the exhibit was the most difficult part of the process.

“The hardest thing is choosing material that is visually interesting, that says what you want to say and that look well together,” Engst said.

Evan Earle ’02, an employee at the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collection, said he enjoyed the process of selecting certain objects to display in the exhibition.

“My favorite part was getting objects that [would] otherwise

[be] in vaults by themselves, and putting them out on display for people and sharing it with [them],” Earle said.

Earle added that the exhibit is “getting more exposure” because anyone can now view the materials online.

O v e r a l l , Keating and Earle said they are “excited” for others to see the exhibition and to “connect” with the university.

“I’d like to think that the

Evan Earle ’02 [viewers will] get a great appreciation for how unique the University is,” Earle said. “It really is a special place with amazing and fascinating history.”

Skorton Discusses Sexual Violence,TCAT at S.A.Meeting SKORTON

Continued from page 1

down.

Before then, Skorton expressed his hope that these shared governance groups could develop lists of priorities and goals to work towards before the end of his term in particular.

“I am hoping that we can develop together over the course of the next few weeks of this semester a collectively agreed upon set of things that we should really try to push through to finality right now, before my term is over,” Skorton said.

Among the issues currently on the minds of students, according to Skorton, include finalizing a binding memorandum of understanding with Tompkins Consolidated Area Transportation, addressing sexual violence at Cornell

and having shared governance leaders to become familiar with incoming president Garrett.

“I’ve already shared with PresidentElect Garrett ... the importance of shared governance in our culture.”

President David Skorton Addressing TCAT’s deficit, Cornell pledged last month to increase its payments to the bus service by $1.125 million by 2018, with future payments being dictated by a memo-

randum of understanding. Skorton said he hopes TCAT and the University are able to reach an agreement regarding the MOU in the near future.

“There should be, from my perspective, no reason why we can’t get that done considerably sooner before my term is over,” Skorton said.

Regarding sexual violence, Skorton said that while he did not expect a finality on the issue, the University must continue to work very hard on “prevention and response.”

“I do not believe we are going to come to closure on this before the end of my term, but I believe we need together to make substantial progress on this,” Skorton said.

Officials Say Ebola Risk to Cornell Community Is‘Low’ EBOLA

to prevent it,” he said.

In addition to dealing with the “immediate situation of preventing, diagnosing, treating and

preventing the spread of Ebola, Skorton said Cornell is also working to help contribute to the understanding of the Ebola virus, for which there is no known cure.

“There’s what we actually do

for a living, which is educate and do research, and in that regard, we have a responsibility broadly to think about the public health ramifications of epidemics and things that could become epidemics,” Skorton said.

He added that he thinks the recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa is an example of a university’s “broader responsibility … to contribute to the understanding and societal dissemination of information.”

Last month, the University placed restrictions for students, faculty and staff traveling to Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia — countries under the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention travel warnings — for official University business. In an email to Cornellians, the University outlined its new restrictions, adding that Cornellians could appeal the restrictions.

“Cornell students, faculty and staff may not travel for study abroad, research, internships, service, conferences, presentations, teaching, performances, recruiting or athletic competitions in the West African nations under CDC travel warnings,” stated the email, which was signed by Fredrik Logevall, vice provost for international affairs; Dr. Janet Corson-Rikert, associate vice president for campus health and executive director of Gannett Health Services; and Craig McAllister, director of risk management and insurance.

Skorton said one challenge the University faces is balancing the rights of Cornellians, while also protecting and informing the community.

“A big part of fighting our way through this puzzle in the optimal way will be to find some balance that respects people’s family ties and personal reasons for wanting to travel literally anywhere in the world,” he said.

The University has worked with local health providers since the summer to ensure that the community is informed about the Ebola outbreak. CorsonRikert said at a discussion on campus last month that an additional challenge Cornell faces is to manage misconceptions about the risk of the Ebola virus.

“To be clear, the risk to Cornell community members continues to be very low,” she said at the Oct. 23 discussion.

Still, Skorton lauded the work of Gannett in addressing the possible Ebola threat to the local community.

“You can never be 100 percent comfortable at a time like this when we have so much interaction with the whole world here because of the nature of our campus,” Skorton said, “but I am reassured and heartened ... with the leadership of Gannett and the leadership of the medical college.”

NEWS BRIEFS

Federal Government Announces First Bitcoin Securities Fraud Case

NEW YORK (AP) — The federal government on Thursday announced its first bitcoin securities fraud case, accusing a Texas man of engineering a Ponzi scheme by getting people to turn over their bitcoins in return for promises of high interest rates and the ability to recoup their investment at any time.

Trendon Shavers, of McKinney, appeared in federal court in Texas on securities fraud and wire fraud charges that were outlined in a criminal complaint unsealed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.

“This case, the first of its kind, should serve as a warning to those looking to make a quick buck with unsecured currency,” U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said in a news release.

Bharara said the 32-year-old Shavers combined financial fraud and cyberfraud into a bitcoin Ponzi scheme offering “absurdly high interest payments, and ulti-

mately cheated his investors out of their bitcoin investments.”

At the peak of the scheme, Shavers possessed about 7 percent of all bitcoin in public circulation, prosecutors said.

George Venizelos, head of the FBI’s New York office, said Shavers “used a new currency, but the same old reprehensible tricks.”

“He claimed to offer a bitcoin market-arbitrage strategy. In reality, it was nothing more than an insidious scheme motivated by greed. Today, Shavers’ jig is up,” Venizelos said.

Bharara said Shavers caused about half of 100 investors to lose all or part of their bitcoin investment from at least September 2011 through September 2012 as he promised them up to 7 percent weekly interest and assured them they could withdraw their investment at any time if they turned over bitcoins.

Tennessee Lawmakers Prepare New Restrictions on Abortion NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — While the rest of the South slowly whittled away at abortion access, Tennessee’s clinics operated under less stringent restrictions.

That is about to change.

Voters on Tuesday approved altering the state constitution to make clear that it does not protect the right to an abortion — despite the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling establishing a nationwide right to abortion — and legislators are already talking about mandatory counselling and waiting periods to bring Tennessee in line with the eight surrounding states. The legislature meets again in January.

The amendment, approved by 53 percent of voters, was a slow motion response to a Tennessee Supreme Court ruling in 2000 that said abortion was protected by the state constitution. The amendment was brought before the legislature four months after that decision, but it took nearly 14 years to become law because of political opposition and the state’s lengthy referendum process.

“Clearly, I think the legislature wants to put commonsense legis-

lation in place to make sure that abortion is a safe procedure in Tennessee and to restore the state to being in-line with the states around us,” said House Speaker Beth Harwell, a Nashville Republican.

Abortion rights supporters are worried that lawmakers will go too far. After the amendment passed, American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee Executive Director Hedy Weinberg issued a statement warning politicians that “extreme, medically-irrelevant laws will be strongly opposed by voters.”

The hard-fought campaign over Amendment one brought in more than $5.5 million, much of that raised by abortion rights advocates from Planned Parenthood affiliates across the country who fought it. The two sides spent nearly $4.5 million in October alone, much of that going toward television advertisements.

Opponents portrayed Tennessee as an “abortion destination,” playing up that almost 23 percent of the women getting abortions in Tennessee are from out of state, according to the Tennessee Department of Health.

Despite Space-Related Accidents, NASA Test Flight Remains on Track for Next Month CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA’s biggest test flight in years remains on track for next month, despite last week's space-related accidents.

Officials said Thursday everything looks good for the Dec. 4 launch of NASA’s new Orion capsule. This one will not carry a crew.

Future Orions are meant to carry astronauts on missions of deep-space exploration, including, one day, trips to Mars.

The spacecraft will blast off atop a Delta IV rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The fourhour flight will send it on two laps around Earth — and as far as 3,600 miles into space — before parachuting into the Pacific, Apollo style.

William Hill, who helps run exploration systems development for NASA, said the test flight systems have nothing in common with either the Orbital Sciences rocket that blew up at liftoff on Oct. 28 or the Virgin Galactic SpaceShip Two destroyed in flight last Friday. So no reviews were needed, and no plans have been changed.

“Space operations is hard, and they proved that last week,” Hill told reporters. “It was a tough week. It’s a tough business we’re in.”

Mark Geyer, Orion's program manager for NASA, said even before the back-to-back accidents, everyone involved with the upcoming test flight recognized just how difficult it is to send up spacecraft, especially those designed for humans. The two events serve as an important reminder more than anything, he said.

The whole idea of the test flight, Geyer said, is “to learn about where the challenges are so we can minimize the risk when we actually put people on board.” The capsule will be equipped with 1,200 sensors to measure vibration, heat and noise, among other things.

The flight test readiness review a couple weeks ago already was “very thorough,” Geyer noted, and the NASA-Lockheed Martin Corp. team is going into it with “our eyes wide open and making sure that we all understand the risks.”

Toddler Aboard JetBlue Flight Rushed to Hospital After Plane Lands BOSTON (AP) — Authorities say a toddler aboard a JetBlue flight that landed at Boston’s Logan International Airport has been rushed to a hospital for medical attention.

Airport spokesman Matthew Brelis says the 18-month-old was aboard Flight 1786 from Pittsburgh to Boston, which arrived Thursday night. The airline’s website showed the flight

left Pittsburgh at 4:19 p.m. and landed at 5:37 p.m.

Massachusetts State Police say troopers escorted an ambulance and family members to Massachusetts General Hospital.

A spokeswoman for New York-based JetBlue Airways Corp. says she didn’t immediately have further details.

Inventor of CorningWare, Stanley Donald Stookey, Dies at 99 DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — S. Donald Stookey is no household name, but his bestknown invention truly is: CorningWare, the durable, heat-resistant ceramic glass used since the 1950s to make millions upon millions of baked lasagnas, tuna casseroles and other potluck-dinner dishes.

The scientist, who died Tuesday at 99, created a type of glass so strong that the military used it in guided missile nose cones. His space-age material found a home in most American kitchens in the form of white dishes decorated with small blue flowers.

Stanley Donald Stookey died at an assisted-living center in Rochester, New York, said his son Donald Stookey. He said his father broke a hip in a fall a few months ago and underwent surgery, but his health deteriorated.

“He was one of the great glass scientists in the history of the world,” said Steve Feller, a physics professor at Coe College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where Stookey earned an undergraduate degree in chemistry and mathematics and remained active

in alumni activities. “Virtually everyone has had CorningWare at some point in time, and there were all sorts of spinoff applications from his fantastic work.”

CorningWare was celebrated for its versatility. It was strong enough to withstand minor kitchen mishaps, and it gave home cooks the ability to bake and serve food in the same dish.

The dishes could go straight from the oven to the dinner table and then into the refrigerator or freezer.

You could also put them in a microwave, and some types could be heated atop a stove. They were a common sight at family gatherings, potlucks and holiday celebrations across the county.

Stookey joined Corning Glass Works in New York in 1940, the same year he graduated with a doctorate in physical chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He immersed himself in research, studying the complex chemistry of oxidation and its effects on glass, according to a company biography.

zra’s Oracle welcomes inquiries from all members of the Cornell community about anything and everything related to the University. We seek out answers to campus mysteries, research rumors and investigate issues of relevance to Cornellians.

Questions can be submitted via email to ezrasoracle@cornellsun.com. Or whisper them in the ear of the Ezra Cornell statue on the Arts Quad.

Q: Why do we call exams “prelims” here? Is that just a Cornell thing?

— Libe Slope Linguist ’15 A: “Prelim” is one of the many pieces of Cornell vocabulary that often confuses our peers at other institutions. While students at other schools study for midterms, tests and exams, Cornellians are in the library preparing for prelims. Even Wikipedia and Urban Dictionary refer to Cornell as an abnormality in its use of the term. At many institutions, “prelim” is used to refer to the graduate school exams that admit a student to a Ph.D. program.

The term “prelim” is short for “preliminary examination,” and the abbreviated form was in use in the early years of Cornell. It shows up in only the 24th issue of The Cornell Daily Sun in October 1880. An even earlier reference appears in The Sun’s predecessor, The Cornell Era, on February 20, 1880 with the note: “Prof. Prentiss aroused the somnolent by a prelim., last Wednesday.” How and why the term caught on at Cornell is a mystery, but it seems likely to remain.

Clarifying Cornell Heights Zoning Code AFTER CORNELLIANS AND ITHACANS PROTESTED the development of a new housing complex last spring, the City of Ithaca is planning to revise its zoning regulations for Cornell Heights Historical District, a historic district located west of Cornell’s North Campus. The proposal for these revisions will most likely be drafted by January and will include plans to protect the character of the historic neighborhood, as well as regulations that would increase the lot sizes for Greek life-related housing, lower building heights and lower lot coverage maximums. We at The Sun believe that this a positive step because it will help lay down clearer guidelines for development of the area in accordance to the demands of the residents.

The issue of preserving the neighborhood arose last spring when CA Student Living — a subsidiary of Chicago real estate investment and development company CA Ventures — proposed a modern-style housing complex in the neighborhood. Locals protested against the proposal at an Ithaca Planning and Development Board meeting in March, emphasizing the lack of finalized plans, concerns for increased traffic and the lack of preservation of the historic neighborhood. In addition, a petition was circulated and signed by more than 900 locals.

Due to this local backlash, the construction proposal was withdrawn in August.

Aside from local residents, many chapters of the Cornell Greek system signed this petition, with 20 of the 46 fraternities on campus located in Cornell Heights.

Of the 900 signatures, over a third were connected to Cornell fraternity and sororities. We applaud them for taking a stand on an issue that concerns their community and their neighborhood.

We at The Sun believe that even though the construction proposal by CA Student Living was rejected, it would be beneficial to the neighborhood of Cornell Heights to rewrite the zoning code. This will not only help in defining clear guidelines that regulate all future development, but also encourages historic preservation in Ithaca neighborhoods.

Q: What’s a provost anyway? Is that a Cornell thing too?

— Concerned with Org Charts ’17 A: With Provost Kent Fuchs appointed president of the University of Florida and ILR Dean Harry Katz appointed interim provost, the term has been in the news a lot lately. The position is relatively common in American higher education. In fact, our new Cornell president-elect, Elizabeth Garrett, is the current provost at the University of Southern California. Although the job descriptions vary across institutions, provosts generally serve as chief academic officers. The provost oversees the deans of the colleges at Cornell, as well as an array of vice provosts, and acts as the president’s first deputy officer. Like Fuchs, many of Cornell’s provosts have moved on to other institutions as president.

Cornell appointed its first provost in 1931, former dean of the College of Agriculture, Albert R. Mann (of Mann Library fame). Historian Morris Bishop described the appointment by saying there was a need for “an executive officer with power to decide matters on secondary importance, but above the competence of a secretary.” Needless to say, the scope of the role has expanded significantly, although some of the vagueness has been preserved. When the Board of Trustees considered renaming the position to “vice president” in 1943, “it was held that one of the great virtues of the title of provost is its ambiguity,” according to the board minutes. “It is not a second-rate title; it is coordinate with that of the President and this position needs a title that will cover that conception of its status.”

Q: With Gannett Health Services planning to open a significantly expanded facility in 2017, what’s the history of health services at Cornell?

— Not Pregnant ’16 A: Since Gannett opened in 1956, the student population and number of visits to Gannett have both more than doubled. The range of services provided has substantially expanded over the last half century, and the number of visits to Counseling and Psychological Services alone has almost tripled in just the last two decades. With around 90,000 visits to Gannett per year, the need for expanded facilities is clear.

But Cornell’s health services pre-date the Gannett building by many years. After an alarmingly high student mortality rate in the 1870s, an assistant professor of mathematics was appointed medical examiner in 1877. Shortly after the old Ithaca City Hospital opened in 1890, students raised funds to create a “Cornell Ward” to provide a hospital bed there for ill students. In 1898, the home of trustee Henry Sage on Seneca Street was converted to be the University infirmary (today the home of Cornell University Press). After a disastrous typhoid epidemic in 1903, the infirmary eventually expanded to the Schuyler House next door, and an addition was built to connect the structures. A University health officer was appointed in 1920, and a medical report in 1926 stated that 5.5 percent of freshmen and 16.9 percent of seniors had insufficient sleep — a statistic that probably seems incredibly low to students today.

However, it wasn’t until the mid-20th century that the University began to assume substantial responsibility for student health and provide adequate clinical facilities.

The construction of Gannett finally brought quality health services to central campus, and the last expansion was in 1982.

The Personal Scientific Method

Y

ou’re sitting in a class or meeting, quietly listening to a speaker in a room full of people, when you realize, too late, that you may have found a squeaky chair. You shift a bit to the left and, to your horror, brrrrp — to the whole room, it sounds like you lack self-control.

It was definitely the chair! Although you are a little gassy. Fortunately, you’re an intelligent person, and you can figure this mystery out. First, you simply wait, sitting still. No follow-up sound. Shift back to your left: brrrrp.

Whether it was the chair or your gut, it happened again. This is a replicable phenomenon. Now shift to your right: brrrrrrp again.

One final test: Use some of that gas to your advantage and compare the chair sound to the intentional real deal. BRRP! By now everyone is looking at you — noses pinched — but you’re satisfied that the chair sounds nothing like the real thing. It was totally the chair, the first time.

Congratulations, you’re a scientist.

What made your investigation scientific? You had a hypothesis: This chair, and not you, is making this uncomfortable sound when you move in it. You had a negative control: When you didn’t move, no sound came out, so you can reasonably guess that any sound produced would in fact be attributable to your movement. You could replicate your results: When you shifted to the left again, the same phenomenon happened. You had a positive control: You tested what the real thing sounded like, so that you would know how it compared to the chair sound. And you even were able to use your hypothesis to make a testable prediction: If shifting to your left made this noise, then shifting to your right should probably make the same noise, and it did.

We don’t usually associate the scientific method with the mysteries we encounter in our everyday lives. Most of our day is simple enough that we can get through on our intuition. In the above situation, most people would probably make a guess and move on, content with not really knowing. That is usually okay, but it is also important to remember that there are better ways of knowing things.

For most of us, the scientific method is an abstract concept, a half-remembered list of ideals that someone else’s profession abides by. The reality is actually much simpler: The scientific method is what we as a global community have decided is the best way of finding out about our world.

Although associated with science, this way of thinking didn’t begin with science and isn’t restricted to it; any of us could agree, for example, that just because you sneezed right before a traffic light turned green twice in a row doesn’t mean your sneezes have power over the traffic lights. You could show that by, for example, holding in your sneeze at the next light until it turned green — a negative control, even if we’re not used to thinking of it that way.

The nice thing is we can get used to thinking of things this way, and learn more about reality than we could otherwise. Someone who experiments with adding or removing one ingredient at a time from a recipe is going to end up knowing more about their dish than someone who changes it haphazardly, and the rigorous chef will reap the tasty benefits.

You can also steer clear of false claims more easily. Horoscope.com tells me that, as an Aquarius, I’m either shy and quiet or boisterous and energetic. As an experienced squeaky-chair-scientist you probably immediately realize that this is not a falsifiable hypothesis; it’s not testable, because it can’t be wrong if it makes vague predictions, or if it couches every prediction in “may” or “could.” Claims that don’t make testable predictions don’t provide any useful information.

While it’s nice to have a grip on the key tools for knowing things, the reality is most of the time this expertise doesn’t show us how much we know, it shows us how much we don’t or can’t know, which is just as important. No matter who or where we are, we’re constantly surrounded by ideas that can’t be held up to a scientific standard of accuracy. “This unique event never would have happened if my political party were in charge!” “That guy who cut me off definitely did it because he’s an a-hole!” “Modern art is dumb and isn’t really art. Just look at those monochromatic lines!”

We can’t know these things because none of them make testable predictions, but that doesn’t stop people from saying them and believing them anyway, treating guesses as fact. Even when we do make claims that are testable, we often forget that they’re just hypotheses that need experimental confirmation; our biases prevent us from questioning our biases. Cornell professor David Dunning of the famous Dunning-Kruger effect wrote an excellent article on just this topic that you should definitely check out.

So how do we deal with all of this uncertainty? You can see for yourself if you read any scientific paper — acknowledge the fact that you may be wrong, and that you can’t really know until you rigorously test your assumptions. We can learn one thing from horoscopes: If you don’t actually know something, remember to throw in those “mays” and “coulds,” if you have to make a claim at all. In short, the most important part of the scientific method is learning to be humble and accept your own ignorance.

It seems like honesty is something we all value and expect from each other, and ourselves, with the unspoken caveat that it’s okay to say something untruthful if you had no way of knowing any better. What we often forget is that we do have a way of knowing things better, a system specifically designed for that purpose. We may call it the scientific method, but it works just as well for anybody, white coat or not. Why not use it?

What this really all boils down to is that the Internet has made it even more im portant for veterinarians to be effective communicators and really learn how to form solid professional relationships with their clients. This way, when it’s the veterinarian’s word against Dr. Google’s, the client will listen to the veterinarian because they trust her.

Then instead of dreading Dr. Google and all the trouble he causes, we can use him as a tool to help us — telling clients to “Google responsibly” allows them to both satisfy their curiosity and reinforces that the veterinarian should be the ultimate resource for advice.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT ‘The Best Action Movie of the Year’

BY ZACHARY ZAHOS Sun Senior Writer

John Wick is the best action movie of the year and living, throbbing proof that great directing can enrich just about anything. The auteurs responsible are Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, two veteran stunt actors whose talents perfectly suit Derek Kolstad’s terse screenplay and testify to the artistic imperative of getting more men and women of their training behind the camera. They do not just choreograph and shoot action scenes with preternatural intelligence and grace — really, only Snowpiercer from this year comes close, and forget anything from Marvel — but they also toe the line in depicting violence as both a beautifully intricate and deeply inhuman act.

Keanu Reeves stars as the man with the flammable name, and sure enough it doesn’t take long for him to go off. In the opening minutes, his wife dies from cancer, and the only respite from his grief arrives in a pet carrier — an adorable beagle and special note wait inside. Just as normalcy creeps back into John’s life, a trio of Russian thugs, led by Iosef (Alfie Allen), break into his house to beat him up, steal his ’69 Mustang and, you guessed it, kill that poor puppy. That is more than enough to let him loose, for John turns out to be equipped with a particular set of skills, skills that make him a nightmare for people like Iosef and the New York-based crime syndicate run by his father, Viggo (Michael Nyqvist, fantastic). One of the film’s biggest laughs, among many, comes at the precise moment, via a reaction shot, when Viggo realizes who his son has messed with.

Unlike sadist pulp like Game of Thrones — whose Theon Greyjoy plays Iosef — John Wick does not linger on the dog slaying or any of the ensuing deaths after: I was surprised how quick they passed, how Stahelski and Leitch knew they would land an R-rating and yet still showed restraint. While the carnage can rightfully be described, and praised, as insane, the style that frames it is, by today’s standards, anything but. Good luck trying to spot any discernible CGI, which likely was used to add bullet holes and entry wounds but not to, say, topple buildings or disfigure characters beyond belief, à la Only God Forgives. With their focus on blocking, lighting and capturing gunplay for maximum coherence, Stahelski and Leitch emerge

with entertainment that doubles as art, by sheer virtue of its formal excellence.

This excellence carries over to scenes of dialogue, which the directors fill with as much dynamic and telling character business as possible.

When Viggo meets Iosef for the first time since learning of his attack on John, the stern father walks toward his son with a tumbler of brandy in his hand. Instead of just handing it to him, Viggo walks deliberately into his son’s space so he must amble backwards, cowed by his father’s gestures but, at that point, oblivious as to why. Then he delivers a punch straight to the gut. This is not a dumb movie: The psychology of these characters is there, just left unspoken and embedded in the John Wick way they move.

A Sinfully Heavy-Handed Rant on Religion

BY EMILY KLING Sun Staff Writer

Filled with redundant religious symbols, predictable twists and continuous confessions, Alexandre Aja’s new fantasy thriller, Horns, may just be the eighth deadly sin.

That is actually a huge overstatement, but I’ve been wanting to make the joke ever since I left the theatre.

The film, based on the novel by Joe Hill, follows Ig Perish (Daniel Radcliffe), the primary suspect after the murder of his girlfriend Merrin Williams (Juno Temple).

He wakes up severely hungover from a night of hard drinking and finds a set of horns growing from the top of

his head. But with Ig’s horns comes a power: The people around him confess their sinful thoughts and actions and give in to their immoral impulses. And while he initially finds the power to be a curse, it turns out to be his opportunity to discover Merrin’s true murderer.

While the film’s mystery is fairly obvious and easy to solve, the story holds up through its use of flashbacks and Ig’s voiceover. The flashbacks make the film more interesting and give the characters more depth. But in a lot of ways that is the only thing that keeps this film going for the full two hours.

COURTESY OF DIMENSION FILMS

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

Horns Directed by Alexandre Aja Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Max Minghella, Juno Temple

What is interesting is in the beginning, with the reveal of various characters’ deadly sins — and all seven are there — gluttony, greed, wrath, sloth, pride, lust and envy. So now, let’s talk about Horns violates some of these sins.

First, it was sloth. … It repeated its best and most interesting elements again and again and again. These deadly sins reveals have their moments, but at a certain point it is beating a dead

horse. Another sin, gluttony, is its overuse of half-baked religious symbolism. Obviously a major part of the film is the devil, and they repeat the line “the Devil himself was a fallen angel” many a time. But they overdo it.

Crosses are everywhere, people are sinful, snakes symbolism abound, even the diner is “Eve’s Diner,” etc. The truth is, I wouldn’t have as much of a problem with this if they actually made an interesting point about religion and the sins that each and every one of us embody. But they didn’t. The closest the film gets to making a commentary is when Ig yells out about the unfairness of Merrin’s death, yelling that she “went to church every Sunday, she wore a cross around her neck. And did it make any difference? No!” Apart from this, the film on the whole glosses over any chance to make an interesting commentary on religion, fairness or morality.

Additionally, the film is visually uninteresting. The editing was not very good and it was clear when different parts of scenes jumped from shot to shot. Also, if you are going to make a film about religion and use locations such as forests, rivers and run-down parts of town (like this film does), then I expect it to be visually interesting, even if not appealing, and it was neither.

Radcliffe embodied Ig well, giving off a sense of frustration, upset and humiliation, but the character himself wasn’t particularly deep and so there wasn’t much more to it than that. The other actors similarly embody their two-dimensional characters well, but that is all the characters are; two dimensional. There was one moment that made me laugh out loud: After numerous attempts to kill Ig, he finally says, “The one thing I'll say in my favor...

I'm fucking hard to kill.” I just wish this light-hearted moment hadn’t been a break from the monotony of the rest of the movie.

Playing Pardus, Playing Nice Online I

n my spare time I play Pardus, an online multiplayer browser game (pardus.at for those interested!) where I fly a spaceship, shoot space creatures and engage in a drawn-out battle with my sworn enemy, Empaya.

If this sounds like a super nerdy endeavor, well, sure — many of my friends are prototypical computer gamers, moonlighting from their jobs as database managers or computer science students. But such broad stereotyping completely fails to capture the essence of what makes Pardus a superior example of not just a game, but social media. Instead, Pardus’ strengths lie in a community which is predominantly welcoming and engaging. This is in stark contrast to the “communities” formed in many other social medias, such as certain message boards, online comment sections and even large Facebook groups, where the cover of true anonymity allows for the worst of human behavior to propagate.

And it is in such bigoted, self-centered virtual hangouts where I recognize the failure of the promise of the Internet to remove the walls of geography, race and class.

Pardus is a nuanced, sandbox styled game. You fly a ship, skill, rank and trade but have limited “action points” every day, encouraging you to not only aim for efficiency in your daily movements, but cooperate with others for mutual benefit. This forces players to interact and work with one another, building relationships good and bad and joining clans (“alliances”).

While this aspect of Pardus is supposed to

be “role played,” the distinction between role playing and the player behind the character is grey, at best. More generally, players that begin to work together in game rapidly become friends in a very outof-game fashion. Even in game supported “alliance chat,” real life is more frequently discussed than in-game occurrences. The forums, another fun side part of the game, are well known for having a lively “OffTopic” forum, where political, cultural and social events of note are discussed at

players have played for years (I have played for five), many players are well-known and immediately recognizable. This makes interactions in Pardus distinct from most virtual meeting places in that a screen name does not provide for anonymity, but instead allows for recognition. The behavior and rhetoric of a long-standing character can have important ramifications on how they are viewed in and, to some extent, out of game. Compared to the rapidly thrown away accounts of many forums or the anonymous nature of message boards, Pardus is an anomaly.

When the “Fappening” occurred, I was disgusted.

Not only had a group of people hacked into the private information of various people, but it was followed by large groups of users openly sharing, jeering and celebrating the photo’s release. On popular forums like Reddit, it was largely a misogynistic mob. And this was not the first incidence of such gross public indifference — it was just 18 months ago that Reddit, with an assist from Twitter, was primarily responsible for misidentifying the perpetrator of the Boston Marathon Bombings, creating a hellacious atmosphere for the man’s family until he was found dead. Then there are online political discussions, in which blatant misinformation and poorly veiled racism or class hatred is perpetrated by all sides of the political spectrum. The

Calvin Patten Patten Pending length. Making the Off-Topic especially fun is the wide variety of people participating — I can count multiple people from six continents with a wide variety of life experiences participating. It is truly a global mixing pot.

The latter attributes do not necessarily separate Pardus from any other game, forum or chat. But Pardus is unique in the value of the identity of those with whom you are working. Pardus was started in 2004 and has a notably small player base, with the combined “online” number across all three universes generally staying below 400. Coupled with the fact that many

midterm elections only magnified this selfaffirming action, as online commenters drew lines in the sand and waddled around in their collective disillusionment.

Maybe the real fault here is mine — who am I to expect any kind of decency from people (or even make judgments on what is decent), especially in the opaque wilderness of the Internet? And you could argue that, in this unchecked anarchy, free speech can finally be realized. But I do not think I am being absurd in urging people to engage in communities that challenge them, while being mindful of differing opinions. Joining a virtual conversation does not mean shouting as loud as you can, but participating in a respectable manner.

That the screen name you utilize does not create ramifications for you in “real life” does not invalidate the social contract that we enjoy daily.

Ultimately, Pardus has helped reshape the way I look at the world. It makes it feel both small and incredibly large in a way that only the Internet can allow. I challenge people to seek out similar virtual outlets — find positive, entertaining ways to engage with others. Maybe this is a game, maybe it is a forum. But when doing so, respect others — hatred and arrogance defeats the purpose of a platform that can allow us to pass boundaries and interact with each other globally.

defensemen and over the past two years has been on the ice for 55 percent of the Red’s goals.

“It’s tough; he’s our leader back there. All it means is that everyone on the team, all the [defenseman], have to step up and take a little extra minutes under the belt and contribute any way they can,” said sophomore defenseman Patrick McCarron. “Not just one guy is going to step up and take over for Joakim Ryan, it’s just not going to happen, so as a group collectively we all just have to step up and play better and play more minutes.”

Although he said Ryan’s absence is a blow to the team, Bardraeu was quick to point out the RYAN ’15 strength of the rest of the defensive corps.

“That’s a huge loss for us, obviously,” Bardreau said. “His presence is going to be missed a lot, but at the same time we’ve got a lot of guys that can step up that I think are going to do a great job, like Jake MacDonald stepping in there, Patty McCarron stepping in there. I think they’re going to do an excellent job, and obviously it hurts us, but there are guys there that are more than capable of doing a great job.”

Do College Athletes Deserve to Be Paid?

were being sold to football games in his three years on campus. Lattimore “profited” from this in the form of a three-year scholarship, a serious knee injury and consequently a botched NFL career that could have supported him for the rest of his life. “That’s what college football’s exploitation looks like on a human scale,” Baumann writes.

While Baumann makes a compelling case, deep in my heart I still don’t believe college athletes should be paid. What has happened to Lattimore is tragic. It does not excuse the NCAA for the crimes it is certainly committing, whether they are academic or monetary. But paying college athletes — the large majority of whom will graduate from college without making it to the pros — could lead to the same problems Moffitt faced; a boatload of money, a lot more free time than ever before and the natural temptations of everyday life outside the claustrophobic sports world.

I really and truly feel for

Lattimore, in the same way I felt for my dad when he retired, even though he swore he would have no trouble entertaining himself. It’s never easy to break away from a rigid routine and find equally productive things to do that can stimulate both the body and the mind. My dad was

While Baumann makes a compelling case, deep in my heart I still don’t believe college athletes should be paid. lucky enough to find a new routine that satisfied him (although it drives my mom nuts). Moffitt was fortunate enough to be able to turn his life around after making some crucial mistakes.

Hopefully Lattimore can learn from someone like Moffitt and prove that he is more than just another sad story of an NFL career cut short much too soon.

The Lattimore Project W

hen Derek Jeter announced his retirement last year, I wrote a column both about him and about my own father, who had decided to retire from teaching around the same time. The year-long Jeter retirement party seems to have finally subsided, and my old man is into his third month away from work and absolutely loving life, as he told me on the phone yesterday in between his journey over the Brooklyn Bridge and visit to the Met. But news in the sports world in the past few days has gotten me thinking once again about retirement (maybe it’s partially because in about a month I’ll be “retired” from this post at the Sun, or because I’m having anxiety about thinking of getting a real job in another five or six months), and how it isn’t always a walk in Brooklyn Bridge Park — shoutout to my dad, again — for professional athletes.

23-year-old Marcus Lattimore, a running back for the San Francisco 49ers and standout at South Carolina, announced his retirement on Wednesday due to a previous knee injury from which he could never fully recover. Every major sports outlet covered the story, but the New York Times sports section chose to write a story today about a little known Denver Broncos offensive lineman named John Moffitt instead.

Scott Chiusano Who’s on First Like Lattimore, Moffitt chose to retire from the Broncos at age 27, turning his back on a lucrative contract and career, but also walking away from a sport that can take a critical physical toll on the body. Moffitt was largely respected for his decision, as Lattimore has been this week, but the Times article in large part discussed Moffitt’s post-retirement fall. Though Moffitt worked to continue supporting himself after the NFL, he also turned to drugs and alcohol and a few months after his retirement was found with a gram of cocaine, 10 grams of marijuana and four ecstasy pills, according to the Times.

When the brutally strict regiment of the NFL is no longer present in a player’s life, how easy is it to become victim to this kind of lifestyle of excess? Moffitt has since put his life back together, and looks to be on the right path, but the question still remains for young players like Lattimore. Making the choice to walk away from the NFL takes guts and courage, and I personally respect the hell out of him for it. But at the same time, it’s a troublesome road when something that has consumed your entire life suddenly drops into the abyss.

Lattimore has said he is going back to South Carolina to finish his degree, which, if he follows through on it, is certainly a good first step towards making him employable outside of the professional sports world. An article by Michael Baumann in Grantland titled “The Martyrdom of Marcus Lattimore,” argued, though, that it is the corruption of schools like South Carolina and of the NCAA in general that have put Lattimore in this position in the first place.

Baumann reports that in the NFL Lattimore earned about 2 million dollars from his signing bonus and insurance policy, which is obviously nothing compared to what he could have made over a sustained career. He also writes that while Lattimore was at South Carolina, jerseys with his number on them were being sold for 60 dollars apiece, and something like 1.7 million tickets See CHIUSANO page 11

A different beast | The Red takes on Princeton in its first ECAC match this weekend, a young team with a host of freshmen headlining the roster.

MEN’S HOCKEY

Icers Kick Off ECAC Play on Road

By EMILY BERMAN Sun Assistant Sports Editor

With its fall semester schedule dominated by home games, the men’s ice hockey team takes a rare trip away from Lynah this weekend to start ECAC play in hostile territory. The Red will swing by Princeton on Friday for its Ivy League opener, then travel to take on Quinnipiac the following day.

The Red (0-1-1) played these same two teams at Lynah to open ECAC play last season, splitting the weekend with a 4-2 win against Princeton in front of a sold-out crowd but dropping the next night to Quinnipiac, 3-0.

The Red later had away matches against them in February, taking a 4-1 win against Princeton and eking out a 2-1 win over Quinnipiac.

Like the Red, which posted a sloppy 1-1 tie to Omaha in its season opener last Friday and a somewhat better 21 loss to the Mavericks in the follow-up Saturday, the Tigers (0-1-1) are also on the hunt for their first win. At the Liberty Invitational last weekend, the Tigers posted a 2-2 tie to Ivy rival Yale but suffered a stinging 6-1 loss to Merrimack.

Although the Red took both games against Princeton last year, this year’s Tiger squad is a different beast.

Princeton is under the helm of a new coach, all three of its goals have been scored by freshmen and the Red has not faced either goalies before.

“It’s not about them, the preparation is about us,” said head coach Mike Schafer ’86 about readying his squad for

the unknown Princeton team. “We will have an idea a little bit of their tendencies, but we are so worried and focused about ourselves, about the decisions we’re making both with and without the puck, that all year long that’s really all we will focus on.”

The Red will follow up its game against the Tigers by travelling to Connecticut to face the Bobcats. Quinnipiac holds a 3-2-1 record, recently sweeping Northeastern in a home set, and has been outshooting opponents by an average of 11 shots more per game. The Bobcats will host Colgate to kick off their own ECAC season the night before welcoming the Red. Despite Quinnipiac’s larger amount of game experience as compared to Cornell and Princeton’s two games apiece, assistant captain Cole Bardreau said the team isn’t treating the Bobcats as a tougher opponent.

“Everyone in our league gives us a fight every game, so I don’t think you can say just because Quinnipiac’s had more games that they’re going to give us a better game,” he said. “We’re really just trying to take one game at a time and prepare the same way and give both teams the same effort.”

The Red is still hampered by injuries, the most serious of which comes to assistant captain and offensivelyinclined defenseman Joakim Ryan. According to Schafer, Ryan will be out anywhere from three weeks to two months with an undisclosed injury. Last season, Ryan ranked No. 11 in the nation in points per game for See M. HOCKEY page 11
