on Waful was a prisoner of war during World War II for 28 months and 12 days.

During his time as a POW in Italy, he kept a notebook of his thoughts, ideas, dreams and fears from each day. Waful often wrote about little things that kept him going throughout his experience, like taking baths, shaving and occasionally getting hot meals.

But Waful always ended his entries thinking about one thing: Cassie.

Waful, who is a Class of 1939 Syracuse

University alumnus, met Olga Casciolini — “Cassie” for short — an army nurse for the Fifth General Hospital, in July 1941 when they were both stationed in Belfast, Ireland.

In those days that was a very dangerous thing to do because we hadn’t gone into any war yet, and maybe you don’t come back.

Don Waful su alumnus

Waful, who had enlisted in the Army, saw Cassie at a dance and instantly fell for her.

After three weeks and three more dates,

Waful proposed to Cassie.

“I was smitten,” Waful said. “And she was smitten with me.”

The couple announced their engagement on Christmas Eve 1941 and Cassie told Waful that she would wait for him until he got back from the war, no matter what happened.

“In those days that was a very dangerous thing to do because we hadn’t gone into any war yet, and maybe you don’t come back,” Waful said.

Neither of them expected Waful would become a POW. Waful said when you go into war, there are three things you mainly think about: making it through, getting wounded and getting killed. He said no one ever thinks about getting captured.

Mandala piece represents coping with anxiety

staff writer

Between her shoulder blades on the center of her back, freshman Analis Arocho has a large tattoo of a circular, flower inspired mandala.

She designed it herself as a symbol that represents the power she has to overcome anxiety.

Before beginning at Syracuse University, Arocho attended the Union County Magnet High School, a school in New Jersey that is focused around math and engineering and rejects about two thirds of all applicants.

The school was, Arocho said, incredibly competitive. In her grade of 73 students, everyone took only honors and AP classes, and even getting a B would put you at the bottom of the grading curve. She’d often be up until 3 a.m. doing homework, she said.

“Everyone was definitely trying to be better than everyone else, but not on the surface,” she said. “It was underneath.”

Her anxiety began to develop during her freshman year, Arocho said, and got worse as time went on.

By the time her junior and senior years came, her anxiety had reached

its peak. The pressure to perform well became overwhelming, and soon her anxiety began preventing her from doing the smallest of tasks. The climax, she said, was a three-day period when her anxiety was so terrible she couldn’t even make it into school.

In times like these, one of the very

few things that could calm her down was drawing mandalas.

The soothing process of sketching the design, which could take between 30 minutes and four hours, allowed Arocho to divert her attention away from what was bothering her and relax.

Six months ago, Arocho decided she wanted to get a mandala tattooed on her back as a meaningful way to combat her anxiety.

“Don’t think that things are the end of the world, because they’re definitely not,” Arocho said. emmichae@syr.edu

Students perform at Upstate Cancer Center

By Gulnaz Khan contributing writer

Students and faculty from Syracuse University’s Setnor School of Music are playing live performances in the Upstate Cancer Center atrium as part of a new partnership. Their first performance was last week.

This is not like a traditional

performance where people sit and watch. Musicians play on the ground floor and the sound travels up through levels of the center so patients and caregivers can listen to music as they’re waiting for or receiving treatment, said Martha Sutter, interim director of the Setnor School of Music.

The partnership provides a learning

opportunity for students, said Sutter.

“It benefits the students because it gives them another opportunity to perform live in a nice venue,” she said. “On the more humanitarian side, it gives them an opportunity to give back to the community.”

Students also have to learn which types of programming work within the space and for the audience, Sut-

ter said. They have to be cognizant of the mood and volume of the music and be sensitive to the healing environment, she said.

The partnership began as a collaboration with the Healing Harmonies group of Symphoria, a professional orchestra in Syracuse, said Joshua Dekaney, professor of applied music see cancer

Boeheim discusses investment in housing complex

By Brett Samuels managing editor

Jim Boeheim lived in Watson Hall for a year and Kimmel Hall for three years as an undergraduate at Syracuse University.

He didn’t mind dorm living, he said, but he said he thinks student apartments will be the housing of the future around college campuses.

As a result, Boeheim is an investor in

#BLVD404, a new student apartment complex being built at 404 University Ave. Boeheim said he met the creators of the luxury apartment project through a friend. All three project founders are SU alumni. Construction is expected to be completed this summer, and students can lease for the fall 2016 semester.

“I’m a small participant in this.

I’m a basketball coach,” Boeheim said. “I just think it’s a good idea. I think it’ll be good for the campus.”

Boeheim said the biggest difference in housing from when he was a student is that the Skytop Apartments didn’t exist when he was in school.

He lived in a dormitory for four years as an undergraduate and was a resident adviser as a graduate student, he said.

He said dorms are all right, but said they’re more a thing of the past, and student apartments are the thing of the future where students

have their own bedroom.

He said he doesn’t typically invest much in outside projects, adding that his investment in #BLVD404 isn’t a moneymaking project.

“I’m invested in Hoffman’s Hot Dogs because I want to keep Hoffman’s here,” Boeheim said. “I never really try to make money outside of coaching. I think it’s hard to do that. You should stick with what you know.” blsamuel@syr.edu

Fans romanticize Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani’s relationship

E

ven though we often don’t personally know celebrities, we imagine them like they are longtime friends. Most of the time this is fine, but it occasionally puts everyone involved in an awkward position.

For weeks, rumors have abounded about country singer Blake Shelton dating Gwen Stefani, No Doubt frontwoman and solo artist, and it has recently been confirmed they are in a relationship. Many fans have encouraged the two to pursue the relationship, ignoring anything to suggest the couple could be flawed.

In a vacuum, this couple seems like a match made in heaven. They are both fun-loving celebrities and they star together on “The Voice.” For the past couple of years, the public has gotten to know them as a pair and extending this from a professional coupling to a personal one seems to make sense.

But really, this is a perverse warping of celebrities’ lives so it will fit a happy narrative for the public. It gleefully ignores that this

MARK DIBONA

THE SOUND OF CULTURE GOING POP

new relationship comes out of the sudden dissolution of two marriages: Shelton’s to fellow country singer Miranda Lambert and Stefani’s to rock singer Gavin Rossdale, a marriage that had lasted 13 years.

As anyone who’s ever gone through one of their friends dating another one of their friend’s ex knows, this is a situation that creates much pain, chaos and side-choosing.

One would think a similar environment would happen with the public’s relationship to these celebrities.

However, those previous marriages never fit into the public’s views as well as the Shelton-Stefani pairing does. The only connection between Shelton and Lambert is that they’re two of the biggest country stars. Shelton only

recorded two original duets with Lambert, neither of which is as popular as his duet with country singer Ashley Monroe.

Stefani’s marriage to Rossdale was only known for its length and the fact that Rossdale is the frontman of Bush, one of the most hated bands of all time.

The majority of the public never felt like they “knew” those couples. Seeing Shelton and Stefani get together seems like seeing friends you always knew should get together finally begin a relationship. They even lip-sync dueted “Endless Love” on “The Tonight Show” and are planning on releasing their own original duet soon.

But the problem is Shelton and Stefani aren’t those friends of yours. From the distance of celebrity, it seems perfect, but within their actual lives, there are plenty of negatives.

Shelton’s marriage was allegedly riddled with affairs. Rossdale said he believes Stefani began seeing Shelton while they were still

together and is very clearly still in love with her. So while popular headlines may describe the couple as “sweet” or “cute,” this suspiciously ignores the pain and complexity of situations like this, which none of us are actually directly involved in.

This is just a strange symptom of the nature of celebrity. It is usually such a personal relationship between the public and famous people that we want to organize ourselves into teams and show our support for certain stars in cases like this.

But everyone has to realize that the only thing to see here is that which is presented.

Celebrities are real people with serious problems and to inject ourselves into it just because it fits a popular narrative we can enjoy is irresponsible and intrusive.

Significant reform necessary for Albany’s corrupt political culture

T

he cynical and secretive nature of New York state politics has risen to the level of folklore.

Government watchdogs have called the capital, Albany, “not unlike the Wild West,” and federal district attorney Preet Bharara has declared war on what he’s called “the show-me-the-money culture of Albany.”

The state legislature’s two most powerful members — former assembly speaker Sheldon Silver and former senate majority leader Dean Skelos — are on trial this month for corruption.

Federal prosecutors are using the trials to shine a harsh light on the exploitative tendencies of New York state politicians, a recurring problem in a state where more than two dozen members of the legislature have been indicted or resigned in disgrace over the past five years.

Such patterns indicate the institutional bedrock of civic society in Albany is rotten, needing fundamental reform to move government toward accountability. It would be fitting if motivation for crucial progress sprang from these scandals at the highest levels of state power.

Together with Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Silver and Skelos comprised the legendary “three

THE ONLY ONE LEFT

men in a room” who historically decide the allotment of the state’s massive budget. If Silver and Skelos are vindicated in court, it represents very little. They’ve both hired brilliant lawyers — and there’s a fine line between actual criminal acts and the ethically questionable ways that business is done in Albany.

There’s something inherently exploitative in the accounts of Silver arranging state grants under the table for a cancer doctor who referred profitable clients to Silver’s law firm, or funneling grants to a Manhattan real estate developer that later returned the favor, according to The New York Times. That also goes for the alleged bribes and services paid to Skelos by the same real estate developer, Glenwood Management.

The recent past has seen aborted attempts to address the problem. In 2013, Gov. Cuomo established the Moreland Commission, an investigative panel to fulfill his campaign pledge of curbing corruption.

However, as the commission began to crank out indictments, Cuomo shut it down. This led outraged watchdog groups to speculate that the panel’s digging had gotten too close to the activities of certain powerful people — leaving Cuomo with an uncomfortable lack of control over the juggernaut he’d set in motion.

If Albany is going to change, bodies like the Moreland Commission must be reinstated and fully sanctioned to go after corrupt politicians — as many of them as they need to, as high up as they need to.

Any investigative team will need federal oversight to prevent Cuomo from using the panel as a political tool. The cases against Mr. Silver and Sen. Skelos both developed from the findings of the Moreland Commission — if Cuomo hadn’t shut it down, more could’ve been uncovered.

Heightened scrutiny of state lawmakers isn’t the only way to clean up the system — in fact, too much scrutiny can paralyze the legislature.

This year’s session has been described as sparse and “anemic,” as Mr. Silver’s arrest in January worried many lawmakers that their activities may be construed as unethical.

That’s deeply revealing of Albany’s jaded sta-

tus quo, but also means balance is necessary to keep the wheels of government spinning amidst cleanup.

Finally, there must be an extensive re-examination and rewriting of New York’s campaign finance loopholes, such as one that allows individuals and corporations to donate freely through limited liability companies (LLCs). LLCs face much higher caps on contributions than regular corporations, and by creating huge webs of them, donors can funnel limitless cash to political campaigns.

Cuomo pledged to close this glaring loophole the last time he ran for office — but he’s one of the loophole’s biggest beneficiaries, according to ProPublica, and the legislation he proposed to end it has stalled in the state Congress.

In the pursuit of clean government, reformists will have to contend with this persistent hypocrisy. Meaningful progress will only come through continued pressure on state authorities.

letter to the editor

Alumnus responds to Nov. 5 Daily Orange Editorial Board on TGB One year ago, at the start of THE General Body’s sit-in, The Daily Orange Editorial Board wrote a statement titled “Unruly Behavior at DAT Rally Will Not Spur Change.” Last week, The Daily Orange Editorial Board asked THE General Body to thank the Syracuse University administration for all the change spurred by DAT rally and the sit-in.

While deeply ironic, I am not surprised.

Both editorials illustrate the inability to dig beneath the administration’s inclusion delusions and to understand the necessity of substantive action. We learned with the Advocacy Center that while we listen and dialogue,

they just cut.

I will detail the three major examples of change described by The DO: 1. In response to a major TGB demand, the university has hired an Americans with Disabilities Act coordinator. This is great news for the university, but the question should be why it took an 18-day sit-in to speed up an ADA search many years too late.

2. Divest SU wrote a letter to the editor titled “Divest SU Responds to University Limiting Fossil Fuels.” In it, we described how SU only made a formal policy out of their existing investments. SU did not actually move any money out of fossil fuels.

3. The editorial board mentions the Fast Forward Syracuse and the Academic Strategic Plan as “new lines of communication” opened since the sit-in. The editorial board has the timeline reversed on this point. Fast Forward was in process before the sit-in. The sit-in was a rejection of it.

The original Fast Forward working groups contained only six undergraduates out of 93 seats. The protest pushed and achieved the addition of more students. I was one of the graduate students added, but by the time I joined, plans were already set and my minor recommendations were dismissed. I talked to other students and found

that my experience was common. This is the official channel that “allows expression” (but not action) promoted by The DO Editorial Board.

While details of these issues are important, the major point the editorial board misses is that power doesn’t work out of good will.

Frederick Douglass wrote that “Power concedes nothing without a demand.”

And while the power at SU continues its path of slashing jobs and programs, and militarizing and corporatizing the university, power doesn’t deserve a thank you.

OPINION

editorial board

Options needed for assault reporting Sexual assault survivors should never be forced into a small range of options when it comes to reporting their incidences.

Under Title IX, survivors are able to choose whether to report sexual assault to their school, local law enforcement or both. But the Safe Campus Act would require survivors to report their attacks to law enforcement before disciplinary action can be taken by universities.

Although the specifics of the bill are up for debate, the proposed legislation’s narrow approach brings to light a larger concept in institutional approaches to combatting sexual assault: the more options, levels of privacy and channels in which survivors can report their experiences, the better.

Rather than pigeonhole students into direct courses of action, it must be understood that forcing survivors to resort to one method fails to acknowledge individual experiences.

Not everyone may feel comfortable with one manner of reporting.

Though introduced with the intention of leading to more prosecutions by having law enforcement secure evidence early in an investigation, the bill may prove counterproductive due to the fact that leaving students with the option of going to the police may deter survivors from reporting assaults at all.

If the proposal moves forward, it should integrate an additional step that would consist of more sensitive handling of the process. Reporting sexual assaults can be a very emotional process, and including alternative approaches for survivors will allow room for more possibilities that may best coincide with the different ways in which people cope with trauma.

Sexual assault groups have argued that requiring police intervention is an insensitive approach to the issue for the mental repercus-

scribble

sions it would have on sexual assault victims, which has been a major reason for backlash against the bill.

The Safe Campus Act has faced opposition from student governments and organizations that work with sexual assault survivors.

Moving forward, the Student Association at Syracuse University should look to explore whether or not it will form an opinion on the bill. Taking a stance on the Safe Campus Act would be an opportunity for SA to broaden its horizons on an issue that affects student life on a national scale, and potentially act as a contributing force in the push for options to remain available for sexual assault survivors.

As national initiatives continue in efforts to curb sexual assault on college campuses, it must be a goal for lawmakers and institutions alike to maintain a wide variety of options for survivors in reporting sexual assault.

Majority of population has herpes, not harmful despite stigma

ccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), you probably have herpes.

Results from a recent WHO study found that two-thirds of the global population under the age of 50 has oral herpes (HSV-1). That’s 3.7 billion people, excluding the additional 14 million ages 17 to 49 with genital herpes (HSV-2).

Medically, herpes is pretty insignificant. A lucky 90 percent of those

Socially, it might as well be a death sentence. The most devastating part of the diagnosis is not related to the infection itself, but to the internalization of social stigmas associated with having the virus.

For many, STIs are the modern-day scarlet letter and herpes is the lowest of the low. The virus is considered a permanent punishment for promiscuity and the carrier is seen as damaged goods. Post-diagnosis, confidence comes crashing down and perceived romantic stock value plummets.

lete who she says gave her chlamydia — an STI that can be cured with an antibiotic, just like strep throat.

Like herpes, chlamydia doesn’t really matter, but they didn’t cover that in health class. Instead, they teach an irrationality that makes honesty hard by isolating those infected and discouraging conversation.

The social stigma surrounding herpes is not rooted in medical reality. Besides abstinence, there is little to be done to protect against the virus. Many people contract HSV-1 during childhood. Herpes spreads through any skin-to-skin contact, including kissing, rubbing and sex — oral or otherwise — despite condoms.

Basically, outbreaks involve potentially painful and recurrent cold sores either above or below the belt.

Most people never experience an outbreak and some only have one. For the less-fortunate bunch with periodic symptoms, antivirals can help.

Yes, herpes is forever — just like chickenpox and mono. There are actually eight types of Human Herpesviruses, though the STIs get all the attention. Human Herpesvirus is a category of infections that lowkey remains in your cells and can resurface at any time. This is why some people unknowingly infect others since it can be contagious even

without showing symptoms. That’s all it means to have this type of virus.

The majority of the world lives in ignorant bliss about their herpes.

Carriers even celebrate clean STI test results since screenings do not look for the virus.

Education is the key to progress, but to teach we must talk. Colleges have long been vocal on topics that no one wants to talk about. In the past, they have facilitated discussions to encourage safe sex and empower victims of sexual assault.

Now, it’s time they lead a more realistic discussion about STIs. Fear tactics are not effective means of STI prevention and only serve to diminish discussion, understanding and sensitivity. Through a more authentic conversation, people would be more willing to get tested for STIs, those infected would feel less shameful and partners could be more upfront about sexual health.

Social stigmas make it hard to talk about STIs. But the truth is, most people already have herpes — and quite frankly, it’s just not that big of a deal.

Getting people to see the truth is an uphill battle. We need more than sex-ed. We need a full-blown attitude adjustment.

veterans about 10 other men and four tanks. Waful said the soldiers didn’t have all of the information about the mission and when they got there, they were smack dab in the middle of 14 German tanks.

It was a rainy day, Waful said, and the mud caused their tanks to get stuck. Waful and the other men bailed out of their tanks, but having very little weaponry on their person, were forced to hide in foxholes.

A German soldier found Waful in the foxhole, but decided not to shoot him because he did not have a pistol, Waful said. Instead, on that day — Dec. 10, 1942 — the Germans took Waful and seven other men as POWs. For three Christmases and three birthdays, Waful was a POW in Italy, Poland and Germany.

What he remembered most about being a POW, he said, was the loss of liberty. He said the POWs never knew if one day the Axis Powers would get tired of feeding them and just line them up and shoot them all.

“You live with that every day … ” Waful said.

“So you had all kinds of activities to get that out of your mind — letters to home and playing sports. Either that or you go nuts.”

Inside the POW camp — which Waful described as about 100 yards by about 50 yards with barbed wire fences surrounding the whole thing — there was a walkway that the soldiers had to stay on because if they took one

step off of it, they could get shot.

As a POW, Waful said he often had to share “lousy” food, including German bread that was “black, damp and heavy” and “20 percent saw dust.” But, Waful said, it was something in your stomach.

Once in a while, the Germans would give them soup with a little bit of meat in it, but usually from the parts of the cow that nobody wanted to eat, like the eyes, he said.

The only way the soldiers survived, Waful said, was through the weekly parcels sent by the American Red Cross. The parcels contained powdered milk, spam, tea, salt, sugar and crackers, among other things.

“If you were out busy playing music and playing sports, it was just to forget you were hungry.

You were always hungry,” said Waful, who lost 35 pounds during his time in the camp.

In January 1945, the Germans decided to move all of the POWs in Waful’s camp to a bigger camp about 20 miles away from Berlin.

About 1,500 officers from the camp walked or traveled tightly packed in boxcars for weeks until they reached the new camp, where about 35,000 POWs were being held.

One day, Waful and another officer planned their escape. They had heard about American vehicles on the edge of a village several miles away, so they decided to take their chances and run.

After they crawled under the barbed wire fence, the Russians, who had taken over the camp, saw them escaping and fired warning

shots to try to bluff them back into the camp.

But the two soldiers kept running and eventually made it to the village.

The American soldiers took them in and they were able to cross the Elb River to get back to the American side of Germany.

The date Waful finally gained his freedom back was May 7, 1945 — the first of two Victory in Europe days.

In one of his last entries written as a POW, Waful wrote: “Tomorrow is another anniversary for Cassie and I. I’m building my whole life around her — never knew I could ever love one girl so much — if only a letter from her would come.”

Waful started looking for Cassie as soon as he was liberated. He asked every soldier or nurse he encountered if they had heard of the Fifth General Hospital. Nobody had.

Finally at Camp Lucky Strike, a big collecting station for ex-POWs near Normandy, France, Waful was able to locate Cassie through the American Red Cross tent set up there. Waful said he found out she had been wounded in the Battle of the Bulge.

“She wouldn’t take the Purple Heart. She said that was for soldiers,” Waful said. “That made me cry, then and now. She was a solider.

She’d been there for three and a half years.”

Waful and Cassie were able to talk on the phone long enough to hear each other’s voices and know that they were both OK. After about three years of being apart, the first thing Cassie asked Waful is if he still wanted

to get married. Within 48 hours, on May 31, 1945, the couple was married in a ceremony put together by a few officers at the collecting station.

Waful returned to the U.S. shortly after their wedding, but Cassie’s service required her to stay in Europe for another 60 days.

After returning home, Waful got a job in the insurance industry from another SU alumnus who had formed the SU Alumni Glee Club before the war started. Waful managed a lot of the university’s insurance and said many of his customers were SU executives, such as former Chancellor William Tolley.

In 1998, after 53 years of marriage, Cassie died at the age of 80 from leukemia.

When asked to describe Cassie, Waful paused to look at a framed portrait in his living room from when she was 40 years old. On his right hand, he still wears her wedding ring on his pinky finger.

“Everybody loved Cassie Waful when they got her back here to the States,” Waful said.

Cassie knew how to run a house, Waful said, because she had run a ward. She also knew how to take care of their two sons, which he attributes to her army nurse history.

Now, Waful, who will celebrate his 100th birthday in April 2016, lives alone in Syracuse and often reflects on his time as a POW and the two loves of his life. He’s known as the mayor of his neighborhood and will still occasionally drive his car around the block.

attendees will go through “airport-like security” and should bring as few personal items as possible, according to the release. A bag and coat check will be available. Cameras are permitted, according to the release.

Biden, an alumnus of SU’s College of Law,

will be speaking at SU as a part of the “It’s On Us” campaign’s National Week of Action.

The vice president’s visit to SU is part of a four-stop college tour to promote the White House’s “It’s On Us” public awareness campaign, which is aimed at raising awareness about and

preventing sexual assault on college campuses.

Biden will be speaking about sexual assault prevention at three other college campuses next week, including the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.

ex-girlfriend, Martin created a new profile on dating website “Meet Me.” Martin told the ex-girlfriend that if she didn’t go to his house, he would send the video of her performing oral sex on Martin to her Facebook friends and post it on the Internet, the statement says.

The ex-girlfriend was not aware Martin had taken the video, according to the statement, and she blocked him on the site.

After the ex-girlfriend blocked Martin, he

texted her, telling her that she needed to come to his house or Martin would release the video, the statement says.

Some of the texts Martin sent his ex-girlfriend, according to the statement about the Oct. 19 incident: • “Want to see how famous you can get within one night” • “Ehh you f*cked me. I tried being nice .. even told you sh*t ain’t gonna go down how

you think it is …. You was even warned” “Why you push me this far is unfortunate .. Cause it don’t have to be like so … We could’ve keep having cool chill nights .. But you want to play this enemy role with me so .. Why don’t we ..

And see who wins” An email to Martin’s SU email address Sunday night went unreturned.

ation and best serve the patients, Dekaney said.

“I watched my father go through cancer treatment and it’s rough; there are really big struggles. I hope music can take their mind off where they are and hopefully offer them a little bit of peace and maybe bring up some happy memories. But hopefully the music is coming from a place of love,” Dekaney said.

The building was physically designed with music in mind, said Matthew Capogreco, program and events coordinator at Upstate Cancer Center.

“When we first built (the Upstate Cancer Center) we went to a lot of different centers of excellence around the country,” he said. “One of the first things we noticed was when you walk into all of those buildings they have music playing.”

The designers chose colors, furniture, patterns and artwork that reflect the theme of healing through nature, Capogreco said. True to this theme, the bright, open construction of the cancer center’s atrium makes it a good space for live music performances, he said.

The center hopes to host live performances at least once a week, but is still in the process of scheduling, Capogreco said. On Nov. 19, Setnor School professors will be playing at the Lung Cancer Vigil and Reception at 5 p.m. in the atrium.

“Our job is to treat the patient holistically, and one of those things sometimes is to distract them from some of the things that are going on around them and lose themselves in some music for a while.” Capogreco said.

ernment of the University at Albany notified SA that it wanted to sign on to the letter. Its members are currently making their own revisions, and the SA assembly will vote to approve sending the letter at a later meeting.

Seedat said her deadline for sending the letter is the end of the semester, since the state assembly will be convening for its next legislative session in January. That’s when it will consider bill A.6090, which would change state law to include ride-hailing services such

as Uber and Lyft in its insurance regulations.

Seedat will be attending an Uber press conference on Tuesday, when Uber plans to discuss its potential economic impact on Syracuse. Seedat will be speaking at the press conference.

Later during Monday’s meeting, Hong gave an update on SA’s bike-share program, which was supposed to launch last month. She said the program hasn’t launched yet because SA “hit a couple roadblocks.”

Primarily, Hong wants to ensure that if the

program is launched, it will become a permanent fixture on campus, rather than something the SA cabinet has to approve funding for on a semester-by-semester basis.

Hong also notified the assembly about heat lamps at the College Place bus stop. The lamps are currently being installed and Hong said they will be fully operational within the next week.

Installing heat lamps at bus stops was an initiative started last fall by SA’s Student Life Committee.

University professors discuss change to China’s one-child policy

By Satoshi Sugiyama staff writer

T

he Chinese government has announced that married couples are allowed to have up to two children, ending the country’s controversial one-child policy.

The National Health and Family Planning Commission said in a press release that halting the policy would “increase labor supply and ease pressures from an aging population,” according to a The New York Times report.

The Daily Orange spoke to Yingyi Ma, an associate professor of sociology, and Norman Kutcher, an associate professor of history, about China’s policy shift in family planning.

The Daily Orange: What was your reaction when you heard the announcement?

Yingyi Ma: I anticipated (the ending of the one-child policy) several years ago so it’s not a surprise at all. … I think China has followed a pattern of many other Western industrial societies with its aging population, but the difference is China has done it in such a contracted way, full speed, making the problem especially astute.

Norman Kutcher: I wasn’t particularly surprised because it has been talked about for a while.

The D.O.: Aging population, which could slow down economic grow in China, is a major factor leading the policy change. What do you make of this concern?

Y.M.: I guess the policies are really driven by the economic considerations because they want to enlarge the useful population to make the productive economy bigger. But the problem is ... from the individual family point of view, they may not really produce those kinds of population changes right away because of a concern of rising costs of raising kids.

N.K.: One thing is certain, economic growth plays a huge role. The economy has been slumping and the Chinese government has known for a long

time that their economy cannot forever be run by exports and they have to fuel domestic consumption. Consumption has been rising but they needed to accelerate even more. When you have more than one child, then you are going to have more people to buy things for.

The D.O.: Do you think the policy change would resolve the crisis?

Y.M.: I think it really takes at least a couple of years for us to see the data. ... It’s really a phase-in kind of policy because just two years ago, they started this nationwide relaxation of one-child policy because they allowed couples, either one of which coming from a one-child family, to have more than one child. So that really makes a lot of households to actually have two children. … But again, it’s not abandoning family planning altogether. It’s still limited to two children.

The D.O.: What kind of population growth do you expect as a result of the policy change?

Y.M.: We have to wait and see. But based on the past two years of policy impact … I think the government is anticipating a certain number of newborns, which they really don’t have. In other words, those people who are eligible to have more than one child actually choose not to. … If this kind of culture or tendency persists under this new policy, we would continually see this kind of low turnout of the newborns than what the government anticipated.

N.K.: I don’t expect there to be a dramatic change in population. … I predict in urban areas many people will not even like to have two children.

In rural areas, many people have two children anyway because the onechild policy is applied differently on the countrysides.

The D.O.: Do you think the policy change will have a cultural impact, especially in regards to sexually selective abortions, which are common in the country?

Y.M: Definitely. … If more families are allowed to have more than one child, of course, sexually selective abortions will decline. ssugiyam@syr.edu

TIM BARR (RIGHT) AND A TEACHING ASSISTANT pour beer into glasses for FST 422: “Wine and Beer Appreciation.” Barr teaches students about evaluating the taste, content and overall composition of different types of alcoholic beverages. emma wishnow staff photographer

Professor discusses wine and beer appreciation classes, retirement

By Danny Mantooth copy chief

A

student eating at Texas de Brazil restaurant near campus swirls her glass of wine, peering at it against the background of her white sleeve.

Tim Barr, sitting nearby in the same restaurant, knew this technique all too well. That’s because he teaches it.

“I was so thrilled,” he said. “This is something people really do use.”

Barr teaches FST 412: “Wine Appreciation” and FST 422: “Wine and Beer Appreciation” in the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics. It’s a popular choice among upperclassmen. Students can register for the class Nov. 12, but they won’t be able to take the class with Barr, who is retiring on Dec. 10.

Both classes are general tastings, Barr said. The purpose of these tastings is to build students’ confidence and knowledge of the alcohol’s components.

Students sample six beverages each class and evaluate them based on a host of qualities, including appearance, smell — called bouquet for wine and aroma for beer — and, of course, taste.

“Some students come in with the idea it’s just a drinking class,” Barr said. “And it is. I mean we drink, but you

have to know how it’s made and a little bit of the chemical composition of the beer and how we arrive at it.”

Both classes have grown since Barr began teaching them, and he now teaches seven sections. He said there were some semesters when all seven sections were full within 15-20 minutes of the start of registration.

At this point, Barr added, he doesn’t even drink the samples he teaches.

“Nobody could drink this much,” he said, laughing.

Barr has been at SU for 20 years and has taught the wine class for 19 of them. He thought up the idea for the combined wine and beer class and has been teaching it for 17 years.

And while the class is a student favorite, Barr said some students struggle because they don’t realize all the information they have to know about the various drinks.

“I do know a lot more about wine than when I began,” senior acting major Brady Richards said about the class. “I feel like it’s made me a lot more knowledgeable about something that is generally an impressive think to be knowledgeable about.”

And Barr echoed that point, calling wine and beer a “social product” that people consider an important piece of knowledge.

Morgan Cavalcanto, a senior public relations major,

BOTTOMS UP SU professor Tim Barr teaches FST 422: “Wine and Beer Appreciation.”

Here are his three favorite beers.

LAKE PLACID UBU

This English-style strong ale contains 7 percent ABV. 2

SARANAC PALE ALE

This English pale ale contains 5.5 percent ABV. 3

BUDWEISER LIME LIGHT

This lime flavored light lager contains 4.2 percent ABV.

Located at 124 Walton St., Bounce seemed to be the trendiest store I visited. Its appearance, from the logo on the outside of the store to the cool warehouse-like interior, drew me in, but the clothes made me stay. From cool leather jackets to suede dresses and glitzy rompers, this boutique had a chic, edgy vibe that I fell in love with.

On the downside, it was a bit too pricey. Carrying brands like Free People and other labels you’d typically see in a high-end department store, most items were priced between $70 and $170. If you have the money, this would definitely be a great place to spend it.

2. Frankie & Faye If you’re looking for a less expensive option, check out Frankie & Faye at 317 S. Franklin St. Everything in the store was under $49. The ambiance of this boutique was cozy and stylish but less high fashion than some of the others; it is perfect for the girlnext-door type of customer. The can’t-miss item at Frankie & Faye is the fleece-lined legging. These leggings are only $19, come in an array of dark colors and are incredibly warm and soft, making them potentially the best leggings on the market for freezing Syracuse temperatures.

3. Midnight Sun When you walk into this boutique, the smell of incense and sale of housewares like dreamcatchers and Tibetan Singing Bowls may throw you off, but

said the class is a good way for students to expose themselves to a variety of alcohol options in a relatively inexpensive way.

“It’s nice to experiment,” she said. “We had New York wines; I would’ve never tried a New York wine.”

Cavalcanto said students sample wines and beers based on region. Some weeks, they’ll try France, Germany, New Zealand, California or upstate New York.

Before coming to SU, Barr owned his own restaurant, The Glen Loch Mill, and before that, had worked for his family’s restaurant, The Brae Loch Inn in Cazenovia, New York as a dishwasher and a bar-back throughout his childhood.

“I have worked, and worked for my father,

style be sure to stay to check out their snuggly sweaters and jackets. The style of this store reminded me of Anthropologie, but the pricing was much more reasonable, typically ranging from $50-70.

If you have bohemian style, love the earth or just want some faux fur and fun fringe details in your wardrobe, stop by 406 S. Franklin St.

4. Jet Black This high-end boutique at 129 Walton St. was filled with designer labels like Rebecca Taylor, Vince, Theory and J Brand. As such, most items cost upward of $300, with some pieces, like coats and genuine leather products, hitting over $1,000. When I saw four-digit price

full-time since I was 8 years old,” Barr said.

He said one year, he made the high school football team, but his father said, “How are you going to do that?” in regards to balancing work and extracurricular activities.

Back then, he was a dishwasher while his high school classmates were going out to games and dances. As it turned out, he said half-jokingly, the same people who were playing as he worked, ended up working for him.

He opened his own restaurant in Jamesville in the ‘70s and recently sold The Glen Loch Mill about three or four years ago.

This December, he’ll be moving on from SU, too. His retirement comes so he can spend more time with his wife, who has rheumatoid arthritis. She can’t stand the winters anymore, he said, and he doesn’t want to go through another semester away from her after being separated

last winter while she lived in Florida.

But, he added, Falk College dean Diane Lyden Murphy has asked him to return next fall to teach the classes. He said he hasn’t made a decision on that yet.

In the meantime, both classes will continue.

Barr said he doesn’t know of anyone who has been chosen to teach the courses, though.

“I would think they’d be foolish not to (continue the class),” he said.

Barr added that not only do students learn the more elegant and refined nuances of beers and wines, but he tries to teach them responsibility as well.

“It’s better to drink quality rather than quantity,” Barr said. “And I know sometimes I’m talking to a wall, but I do think it really gets through to some of them.”

tags, I almost walked right out, but luckily, there’s are huge rolling sales racks filled with clothes and denim that were all 80 percent off the original price. Shoes were also an entire 80 percent off as well. I immediately whipped out my phone calculator and was glued to it the rest of the time in the store, incredibly impressed with the deals. The sales associate said that the 80 percent off sale would last a while, although she couldn’t specify its exact end date.

The standout items at this store are the JoJo Rings, handcrafted rings made from upcycled keys. The rings are $35.

5. Etcetera

Most students know about Armory Square, but most don’t go there as often as they should.

Before it gets too cold, grab your friends and take a trip to the Square. If you don’t have a car, it’s only a free Connective Corridor bus ride away.

From Walton St. to S. Franklin, I recommend checking out every single boutique. And if you still don’t find anything you like? There’s an Urban Outfitters around the corner.

Located at 191 Walton St., Etcetera is the go-to boutique for accessories. It had an eclectic mix of styles from preppy to edgy, so there is something for everyone. Most jewelry items were priced between $15 and $40, and bags were around $80.

&M is best known for basics and quick fashion.

But each year H&M brings it up a notch by collaborating with big-name designers to create special edition collections sold across the globe. It started in 2004 with a collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld and continued this year with one by iconic fashion house Balmain.

Designer Olivier Rousteing went all out for the collection with satin drop crotch trousers, sequined dresses and corded tops as well as some of Balmain’s signature pieces — leather biker jackets, pilot jackets and double-breasted blazers — at a fraction of the price for their typical line. Although a fraction is still a hefty price, items ranged from $649 for a

1. Get lots of leather

A classic black leather jacket is always a must, but go for a more dashing look with a jacket with bold embellishments, such as dramatic zippers and buttons or dozens of patches, or switch it up with leather pants or leggings.

dress to $199 for a suede belt. That’s far from cheap.

The collaboration received a lot of hype with promotions from the Kardashians and the release of campaign images with top-name models, such as Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner. The collection was so anticipated that it sold out within hours of going on sale this past Thursday, and H&M’s website crashed as a result. Now some of those that were able to score some of the pieces are selling them on Ebay for prices up to 10 times higher than retail tag.

So for those of you that want to the Balmain look, but can’t afford the outrageous prices or weren’t able to score an H&M piece, here are some tips to help you achieve the appearance and look Kardashian-worthy.

•

2. Go for embellishments

Whether it’s sequins, buttons, zippers, embroidery, fur or graphic prints, nothing is too daring. To keep it from looking too gaudy, stick with wearing one over-the-top piece and pair it with other more muted items (which, in Balmain’s case, means pairing it with lots of black).

3. Accessorize

Rousteing was not afraid to pump up his collection with some audacious accessories, and you shouldn’t be either.

Finish off your outfits with chunky gold jewelry, thick waist belts, beaded clutches, jeweled earrings, patterned booties and thigh-high suede boots.

Balmain’s collection is on the opposite end of the spectrum of Alexander Wang’s simple and understated collection from last year. If all else fails, just remember to go bold or go home. admcdone@syr.edu

3-pointers carries the pedigree of a sharpshooter and draws attention just by standing on the court.

Richardson, already looking like a precocious freshman, has stroked it from deep in Syracuse’s exhibition wins and has no problem creating his own space off the dribble.

Put the three together, and you get an intriguing blend of experience more than capable of leading an offense.

“He’s definitely getting opportunities based off of me and Trev, which is a good thing,” Gbinije said of Richardson. “He’s capitalizing on it as well, and I hope he continues to do that because it will open up things for me and Trev, as well.”

The Orange took 61 total 3s in its two exhibition games, which is just above the average of 25-to-30 that SU head coach Jim Boeheim said he wants to take per game. Gbinije shot 7-for15 from deep in the two contests, Richardson went 7-for-14 and Cooney finished the worst at 2-for-10. But with Cooney’s history as a reliable spot-up shooter, it’s clear that these are the best three shooters on a team that can feasibly roll out five perimeter threats in the same lineup.

Against Florida Southern, Cooney felt the effects of playing next to two other shooters.

As the Orange’s only legitimate threat from deep last season, Cooney faced unrelenting pressure and was met by helping defenders

whenever he came around screens. But when he came off a high ball screen against the Mocs, there were no defenders obstructing his path toward the rim.

Instead they opted to stay glued to Gbinije and Richardson on the perimeter.

Cooney collected nine of his 15 points by hitting two 2-pointers and shooting 5-for7 from the foul line.

“Definitely there’s a difference when you have those guys out there with me. And I think they could say the same with me, so that’s good,” Cooney said. “We just need to continue to play off each other and continue to get wide-open looks.”

While addressing the media after beating Florida Southern, Cooney said “wideopen” four times in two minutes. It’s a fitting phrase for an offense predicating itself on ball movement and outside shooting. And starting with Syracuse’s three versatile scorers, it seems like there will be enough good looks to go around.

“I think we’re all going to reap the benefits of all of us out on the floor being able to make shots and make plays. We saw today we were able to get wide-open looks,” Cooney said.

“Times we did get to the basket we were able to get right to the basket because you can’t come off of the shooters.

“And hopefully we just continue to play like that, and space the floor and make the right 3s.” jcdoug01@syr.edu | @dougherty_jesse

Syracuse seeks revenge vs. Clemson in ACC semifinals

By Jon Mettus asst. web editor

No. 15 Syracuse (12-5-2, 3-4-1 Atlantic Coast) will face No. 2 Clemson (15-1-2, 6-1-1) at 7 p.m. on Wednesday in South Carolina in the semifinal of the ACC tournament. The winner will play either Notre Dame or Wake Forest in the ACC championship game on Sunday.

Here are four things you need to know before the Orange takes on the Tigers.

Sweet Revenge

Clemson defeated Syracuse, 1-0, in the only meeting between the two teams this year on Oct. 17.

The Orange and Tigers were gridlocked in a scoreless game until SU midfielder Oyvind Alseth coughed up the ball near midfield with less than a minute remaining.

Alseth was the last man back because Syracuse was coming off a corner kick, so Clemson’s Kyle Murphy streaked down an open field to score in a one-on-one chance with SU goalie Hendrik Hilpert.

After the game, Alseth crouched down on the field, covering his head with his jersey and wiping his face.

“For the team and for myself personally the ending of that game was tough,” Alseth said. “I’ve been waiting for a moment to redeem myself ever since that game and now the chance is here. I just have to seize it.”

Syracuse succeeded in its first revenge game against North Carolina on Sunday. SU had blown a 1-0 lead in the final 17 minutes the first time it played the Tar Heels, but emerged victorious on Sunday after penalty kicks to advance in the ACC tournament.

One common goal

SU has only been shutout once this year, against the Tigers and goalkeeper Andrew Tarbell.

The junior tallied four saves — three in the second half — but the Orange didn’t present as many challenges between the posts as it could have with 11 corner kicks to Clemson’s three.

Dating back to the team’s last matchup three weeks ago, Tarbell’s allowed two goals combined in five games since.

“We have to test the goalkeeper much more than we did before,” SU forward Chris Nanco said. “See what he’s made out of.”

Ben Polk, Nanco’s counterpart on the Orange’s front line, fired off three shots on goal against Clemson, only to be turned away by the ACC’s leader in save percentage and shutouts.

Alseth was the only other SU player to record a shot between the posts.

His mom said Lydon would have transferred a year earlier had it been feasible. His Albany City Rocks coach, Jim Hart, said that

Even against an elite netminder, Nanco said familiarity will benefit Syracuse’s attack from better knowing how deep Tarbell prefers to stay in the net or when he chooses to come out.

It’s a matter of execution for a Syracuse team that’s averaged the fourth-most goals per game, still behind the second-place Tigers.

“If you give a team like Clemson time, it turns good players into great players,” Polk said. “ … We know (Tarbell’s) good.

“Still (have to) test him. Anything can happen.”

Saving grace

Syracuse head coach Ian McIntyre said along with Tarbell, Orange freshman goalkeeper Hendrik Hilpert is one of the top goalies in the conference.

Hilpert, who has started every game in net for Syracuse since coming back from a preseason injury on Oct. 2, holds a 1.05 goals-against average and a 66.7 save percentage.

He’s coming off a season-best four-save

his experience at New Hampton helped him mentally as much as it did physically.

“Tyler, you know, if you tell him this many and you’ll get here, he’ll go out and do twice as many and you almost have to stop him,” Hart said.

He wants to make his shot his “perfection.”

Every day before practice, he’ll be hoisting up shots in the Carmelo K. Anthony Basketball Center with assistant coach Adrian Autry.

He doesn’t know what the drills will be before his early arrival to practice. He just knows they’ll

performance in which he made multiple acrobatic stops.

While Hilpert has been between the posts, he and the SU defense have registered two shutouts and never allowed more than two goals in a game.

“There are two good goalkeepers,” Hilpert said.

“We will see who’s the better one in this game.”

In SU’s first matchup with Clemson, Hilpert made three desperation saves in the first half, including two that he punched just over the crossbar. He was perfect against Clemson’s then-top scoring offense until Alseth’s turnover left him out to dry in the final minute.

“Last time, it was tough for them to do something against us,” Hilpert said. “We had very good defense against them. It was difficult for them to shoot a goal.”

More than a hope

The biggest difference between Syracuse now and when the Orange lost to the Tigers in the

involve shooting. His ability to score from the outside changes the dimension of his game and how opponents defend a Syracuse team that has made a point of being more 3-point happy this season.

“He’s not a one-position-type kid,” Susan said. “I mean, if you worked with him a little bit more, he could probably be your point guard.”

Syracuse won’t ever need him to be that playmaker. They won’t need him to be anything he can’t. But for Lydon, the things he can’t do are few and far between.

first matchup is the confidence of the team, Hilpert said.

Before beating UNC on Sunday, Syracuse was winless in four matchups against ranked teams this season.

SU tied then-No. 23 Louisville on Sept. 11, lost 3-1 against then-No. 7 Wake Forest a week later and blew the lead against then-No. 2 North Carolina on Oct. 10.

When the Orange defeated UNC to advance to the semifinals against the Tigers, Hilpert said the team realized they could win against the top teams in the country instead of just playing close.

“We were coming from hoping to be a good a team. This was our goal at the beginning,” Hilpert said of the feeling prior to the first game against Clemson. “But now we know that we are a good team. Now we know that we can win against Clemson.

“I think Clemson will face a much better opponent on Wednesday. We’re ready for them.” jrmettus@syr.edu | @jmettus

Lydon said a personal goal would be to win ACC Rookie of the Year. There are 14 other players in the Class of 2015 in the conference that appeared higher than him on the ESPN recruiting rankings, including teammate Malachi Richardson. It’s a steep goal for a player that was hardly considered an elite prospect.

“I feel like a lot of other guys that are 6-9 aren’t able to do the things that I can do,” Lydon said. “That definitely gives me an advantage.” sblum@syr.edu | @SamBlum3

What to know ahead of SU’s matchup vs. Clemson

By Paul Schwedelson asst. copy editor

Syracuse (3-6, 1-4 Atlantic Coast) is coming off a 41-17 loss at Louisville on Saturday and is riding a six-game losing streak, its longest since 2005. The Orange has allowed more than 40 points in four of its last five games and will host No. 1 Clemson (9-0, 6-0) in the Carrier Dome on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in a game that will be broadcast on ABC or ESPN2.

Orange to play Kent State or UMass in NCAA tournament

By Sam Fortier asst. web editor

Syracuse (17-1, 6-1 Atlantic Coast) will be the No. 1 overall seed in the 2015 NCAA tournament, the NCAA said on its Selection Show Sunday evening.

We are going to celebrate the 22nd of November. You can be there if you want because that’s when we will be national champions.

Roos Weers su back

The Orange will play the winner of Kent State (11-8, 5-1 Mid-American) and Massachusetts (118, 5-3) on Saturday, Nov. 14, at 11:30 a.m. The games will be played at J.S. Coyne Stadium on SU’s South Campus, where the Orange has won 12 consecutive home games and is 72-4 since 2008.

Syracuse last played Kent State in 2014 in Kent, Ohio, when the Orange won 6-1. SU also beat UMass 4-0 at J.S. Coyne Stadium on Sept.

6. Since that game in early September, Syra-

cuse became the 10th team in school history — the first women’s squad — to finish a perfect regular season, going 16-0.

The other two teams coming to Syracuse to play in the first round will be Maryland and Princeton. Should Syracuse win its first round contest, it would play the winner of that game.

Syracuse last played Maryland in College Park, Maryland, in 2013 when the Terrapins were the No. 1 team in the nation. The Orange fell 2-1 in overtime in that game. SU has beaten Princeton in each of the last five seasons.

Connecticut, the team which beat Syracuse 1-0 in the 2014 national championship, was seeded fourth in the NCAA tournament. As the Huskies are on the same side of the bracket as Syracuse, the only possible meeting would be in the NCAA semifinals.

The Orange, seeded No. 1 in the ACC tournament, suffered its first loss of the season earlier in the day Sunday when it fell 2-1 in overtime to No. 3 North Carolina in the ACC title game, held in Charlottesville, Virginia.

It was in a darkened bus on the ride back to Syracuse when the team heard about its NCAA seeding, and a cheer went up.

North Carolina received the second-overall seed and Virginia, the third. Every team in the ACC made the NCAA tournament. sjfortie@syr.edu | @Sam4tr

Syracuse and N.C. State to play at 12:30 p.m. on Nov. 21

By Sam Blum sports editor

Syracuse will travel to North Carolina State on Sat., Nov 21. The game is scheduled for 12:30 p.m. and will be televised on the ACC Network.

The Orange is in the middle of a six-game losing streak and will play No. 1 Clemson on Saturday in the Carrier Dome. By the time the

Orange plays the Wolfpack, Syracuse could be all but eliminated from bowl contention.

When the two teams played last year, the Orange gave up a second-half lead and lost 24-17 in the Dome.

This will be the seventh game played at 12:30 p.m. or earlier for SU this season. It is also the fourth game scheduled for 12:30 p.m. sblum@syr.edu | @SamBlum3

0-9

Syracuse’s record against ranked teams in Scott Shafer’s tenure as head coach.

The Challenge ahead

Syracuse is 0-9 against ranked teams in Scott Shafer’s nearly three seasons as head coach. Clemson, meanwhile, is the nation’s top team and most recently defeated thenNo 16 Florida State 23-13, a team that beat the Orange the prior week 45-21. In two seasons in the ACC, SU has lost twice to the Tigers by a combined score of 65-20.

Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson

leads the conference in total offense with 2,322 yards. Running back Wayne Gallman is fifth in the ACC in all-purpose yards with 115.1 yards per game while wide receiver Artavis Scott is eighth with 102.9. The Tigers also have the fifth best defense in the country, allowing just 287.3 yards per game.

Standstill

Syracuse’s two-deep depth chart had no changes for the second consecutive week.

After being a starter for the first seven games of the season, senior cornerback Julian Whigham remains listed as a backup. He did not play against Louisville on Saturday and was not listed on the team’s injury report.

Injury report

Freshman quarterback Eric Dungey suffered a head injury with 4:21 left in the fourth quarter against Louisville and left the game. It’s unknown whether or not he’ll play against Clemson. “We’ll take it one day at a time,” Shafer said on Monday, in his weekly Cuse.com video.

Four players — cornerback Corey Winfield (lower body), linebacker Parris Bennett (upper body), defensive end Luke Arciniega (upper body) and wide receiver Sean Avant (lower body) — missed the Louisville game due to injury.

Their statuses going forward is unknown. pmschwed@syr.edu | @pschweds

Lydon’s shooting stroke provides versatility for SU

yler Lydon was always the brother that listened to his mother’s advice on proper shooting form. Whether it was making sure he was shooting from over his head, forcing his elbow between his eyes or practicing a follow through, Susan Lydon passed down what she knew.

I MEAN, IF YOU WORKED WITH HIM A LITTLE BIT MORE, HE COULD PROBABLY BE YOUR POINT GUARD. Susan Lydon tyler lydon’s mom

It’s a form that Lydon has carried with him from days of playing Around the World with his mother in their backyard to his role as a contributor for Syracuse. Susan — a former college basketball player — never knew how tall Tyler would be or how much he’d rely on his shooting ability, but his stroke dates back to her wisdom.

“I really think it did stem from what we would teach him at home,”

Susan said. “The high school coaches, I haven’t seen any of them teach any of my kids any kind of form. I guess I’m going to take the credit for it.”

Standing at 6 feet, 9 inches, Lydon’s shooting stroke is what helps define his versatility as he gets set to start his freshman season.

He can play small forward, stretch the floor at power forward and has

the size to contribute to a center position that lacks depth.

After transferring high schools to help boost his level of competition, Lydon got on college coaches’ maps. But he still hopes to exceed the expectations placed on him.

“He’s been a guy you can pickand-pop with, and a guy who can go to the corner and really space out and get driving lanes … teams

have to respect it,” senior guard Trevor Cooney said. “Defensively and offensively, he’s been really good for us and he’s definitely a lot more athletic than most people think he is.”

Defenses have to choose against 3 SU shooters

Floyd Little has publicly voiced his desire to bring No. 44 back on the field for Syracuse football. And while he admits the 2015 season has been “a struggle,” he still sees potential from an up-and-coming young running back to wear the historic No. 44.

“Jordan (Fredericks) is a good runner,” Little said of the freshman.

“I like his style. I like his vision. He’s a good player. I have talked to him and embraced him and encouraged him. But we haven’t talked about (wearing No. 44).”

Little said he likes how Fredericks creates yards even after taking the initial hit. The freshman has taken over the top spot on the depth chart and has run for 426 yards while scoring three touchdowns.

He also has caught a touchdown and has become the best option after starting the year behind juniors Devante McFarlane and George Morris.

Jordan (Fredericks) is a good runner. I like his style. I like his vision. He’s a good player. I have talked to him and embraced him and encouraged him. But we haven’t talked about (wearing No. 44).

By Jesse Dougherty web editor

It took two scrimmage wins, both over Division-II opponents, for Trevor Cooney to decide that Syracuse’s offense is going to make opposing defenses choose how to fail.

“They have to guard someone,” Cooney said after the Orange beat Florida Southern, 96-54, on Monday.

“They’re going to leave somebody open and we’ll make them pay.”

Cooney was referring to Michael Gbinije, Malachi Richardson and himself, which seems to be the three-

headed monster at the head of Syracuse’s perimeter-focused offense.

They are expected to start with Tyler Roberson and Dajuan Coleman when SU hosts Lehigh for its regular-season opener at 7 p.m. on Friday. That will be the first full look at what, by their estimation, is a trio of shooters

that will space the floor effectively and help each other drive.

Gbinije, a fifth-year senior, is the point guard but all three of them can push the ball in transition and get the Orange into its half-court sets. Cooney, also a fifth-year senior, see 3-pointers page 12

Little will be honored on Saturday with a statue to commemorate his time wearing the No. 44. Statues of Ernie Davis and Jim Brown will also be unveiled before Syracuse faces No. 1 Clemson. sblum@syr.edu | @SamBlum3
