STUDENT GOVERNMENT

First joint spending report released

BY BETH CARTER @bethie_carter Last fall, Student Government spent more than $120,000 on student organizations and programs, according to its inaugural fall 2015 joint spending report, released Feb. 17, which outlines spending from both the executive and legislative branches.

The report details every program and campus organization SG funded for the semester. Furthermore, it breaks down spending details from both the executive branch and the Senate.

This is the first extensive report published by SG outlining spending from both branches.

Since its funding comes from student fees, SG director of finance Wesley Davis said SG tries to reach out to a variety of organizations and programs to offer funding support.

Davis said the report serves as an easy outlet for students to see how SG uses their fees.

“As far as I am aware, this report is the first of its kind,” Davis said. “For convenience and transparency, I decided to compile all this information in order for the student body.”

‘Black Cemetery’ commemorates lost lives, condemns police brutality

BY TRENT PARKER @TrentParker_TDR Small black flags dotted the lawn of the LSU Parade Ground on Monday — each representing an African-American life lost since the beginning of 2016 to law enforcement.

“That’s 117 people. Not in a decade, not in a year — in two months,” said LSU Justice Together president Brittany Clark. “That is completely and utterly ridiculous.”

Justice Together and the LSU NAACP

placed the flags for the “Black Cemetery,” an event created by LSU NAACP vice president Erica Peterson to commemorate lost black lives and protest police brutality nationwide.

LSU NAACP president Monturios Howard said police brutality is a real issue and occurs on a daily basis in the United States.

“I believe that, until the majority speaks up and says something, it’ll just keep

Nicholson Drive Kolache Kitchen extends hours, adds lunch

BY MEG RYAN @The_MegRyan The Nicholson Drive Kolache Kitchen is kicking off its new extended hours and lunch menu with a week-long raffle, starting March 1.

The eatery, which will now be open until 4 p.m. daily, is adding a lunch menu including seven sandwiches and three tacos. Kolache Kitchen will continue to serve its breakfast favorites through the afternoon but, starting at 10:30 a.m., will offer its lunch menu to hungry customers.

Owner Will Edwards said the business started testing out the lunch menu at its Jefferson Highway location 10 months ago. He said he wanted to try out the new menu at the newer location in a retail area before bringing it to the flagship location and its University student clientele.

“We wanted to start out there and kind of test it out and see how it would do, and it’s done well for us,” Edwards said.

The sandwiches, which range from a Cuban to a club to a brisket sandwich, vary in price from $4.25 to $8.79.

Edwards said the three taco choices will be chicken, steak and pork. The owner said Kolache Kitchen smokes all its pork and brisket in-house.

Edwards said he’s wanted to offer lunch options for some time. He said, to survive business-wise, he knew offering more than breakfast would give him a leg up in the competitive Baton Rouge food market.

With the extended hours, Kolache Kitchen hopes to draw in more customers than

The topic held personal significance for guest speaker Victor White II. White said his son, Victor White III, was killed by the Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Department on March 3, 2014.

White’s son sustained a fatal gunshot wound to the chest while cuffed in the backseat of a police car. The death was ruled a suicide by the coroner, White said. He is now calling for further investigation into the incident.

“The officers have a get-outof-jail-free card,” White said.

“All the officers have to do is say, ‘I feared for my life,’ and that’s

it … you shouldn’t be able to investigate yourself.”

Body cameras, independent police investigations, less lenient sentencing for officers convicted of brutality and changes to the jury system were among the reforms brought up by attendees as ways of reducing the number of lives lost. However, cameras are ineffective if the officers are able to turn them off without being held accountable, White said.

Police cameras during his son’s death were reportedly malfunctioning.

“Dr. [Martin Luther] King [Jr.] once said that ‘Our lives begin to end the day that we become silent about what matters,’” Clark said. “We matter.

Black lives matter. And we will not be wiped out.”

previously. College students sometimes don’t roll out of bed until early to mid-afternoon, and he said the later hours plus more options will give busy college students a new option for afternoon meals.

“We feel like we might have been missing a lot of business with closing too early,” Edwards said.

With the unveiling of the

new menu and hours, Kolache Kitchen will be hosting a week-long raffle.

Nicholson and Jefferson location manager Heidi Dunne said as customers purchase new menu items all week, they will be entered into a raffle for gift cards, t-shirts, coupons and more. Dunne said the business will be picking around 15-20 customers as raffle winners.

Winners will be notified either March 4 or 5.

from finance bills, which senators propose throughout the semester. After the bills pass through the Budgets and Appropriations Committee, they are brought to the Senate for a vote.

Last semester, the Senate spent more than $13,000 on finance bills. Initiatives included funding for student organizations not covered by the Organization Relief Fund or the Programming, Support and Initiatives Fund, $6,000 for providing free Scantrons, $500 for providing cell phone chargers in the Student Union and $3,000 for purchasing satsuma trees to plant around campus.

parts: executive initiatives, the PSIF committee and the ORF committee. PSIF and ORF orchestrated almost 75 percent of SG’s total spending, allocating approximately $85,000 to student organizations last semester.

PSIF funds events on or near campus for registered student organizations, and ORF provides transportation funding for student organizations.

To qualify for either, an organization must fill out an application and request funding.

Silver Wings, a campus cadet organization with the ROTC, has received both PSIF and ORF funding in the past.

Mass communication senior Lindsey Miller, who helped found the organization, said SG was a useful resource for the new organization.

“We requested funding from PSIF in order to host a mixer on the USS Kidd,” Miller said. “We were very excited to receive this funding, as a mixer of this type had not existed in our area in recent history.”

Tigers for Autism Awareness also received funding from SG last semester. President Estelle Sklar said SG funding helps organizations find money when donations from outside resources do not cover the costs of events.

“All of the previous presidents, myself included, love that the Student Government gives on-campus organizations the option to reach out to them for funding for an event,” Sklar said.

Although this document is the first of its kind, Davis said it will hopefully become an annual report. He hopes the report helps maintain a positive relationship between SG and the rest of the University.

“I felt the report is something that will greatly increase transparency between Student Government and the student body,” Davis said.

Tigers host Missouri on Senior Night

BY MORGAN PREWITT @kmprewitt_TDR

LSU softball players wear rally hats during the Tigers’ 5-3 victory against Texas Tech on Sunday at Tiger Park.

‘CAN’T BEAT CRAZY’ Tigers find extra push in rally hats and other accessories

BY JOSHUA THORNTON @JoshT_TDR In the sport of softball, there are a few major keys that can lead to victory.

A combination of solid pitching, offense and defense can all go a long way toward a win, but sometimes teams may need an extra push.

“Can’t beat crazy” is a motto the No. 5 LSU softball team uses to propel them to victory.

“Our motto is ‘can’t beat crazy,’” said senior shortstop Bianka Bell. “We want to be as loud and obnoxious and crazy as we can just to distract the other team.”

Avid Tiger fans may notice the team wearing Dr. Seuss hats, Mardi Gras beads and even superhero masks.

The average fan might think the players are just goofing around, but it’s actually a part of the softball culture.

“Softball is a game,” said sophomore outfielder Emily Griggs. “It’s supposed

to be fun. When it’s a big series or a really close game, and we’re in the dugout having fun, I think the other team just looks at us like, ‘Wow, they’re having fun. Pressure is on us.’”

While most of the players don’t know how this tradition started, it’s something they have all embraced. Freshman outfielder Amber Serrett picked up a straw hat and a few other items in the summer, which the Tiger faithful will see later this year.

Junior second baseman Constance Quinn often participates in the dugout shenanigans with her teammates and even has her own favorite rally headgear, but she doesn’t plan on bringing it out just yet.

“I’m kind of saving it for a big game,” Quinn said. “It’s my Batman mask. I’m kind of waiting for that one to come out.”

While LSU coach Beth Torina doesn’t participate in the dugout, she still buys items for the team, most recent of which is a fly swatter.

The most valuable rally item for the Tigers isn’t a mask or a hat but

rather a fish.

Juanita, a small goldfish that Bell and sophomore pitcher Allie Walljasper bought at a Walmart during last year’s trip to the Women’s College World Series, is a team favorite and good luck charm.

The small fish became a part of the LSU family after spending time in the dugout whenever the Tigers needed late-inning magic last season.

Upon returning from Oklahoma City, Juanita, who almost didn’t survive her plane ride back to Baton Rouge, has now transitioned from the dugout to the clubhouse, watching the Tigers’ games from afar until she’s needed for a big matchup.

“Juanita probably won’t be here until postseason,” Bell said. “She’s still chilling. We have to wait until postseason to bring her out. That’s our good luck charm. We don’t want to overuse her.”

Though Juanita has not yet seen action for the Tigers this season, the rally hats have been broken out a few times

see HATS, page 7

Heading into this season, no one questioned the talent on LSU’s roster.

For LSU fans and the media alike, the Tigers were a lock for the NCAA Tournament with Southeastern Conference Preseason Player of the Year freshman forward Ben Simmons, power in the paint with sophomore forward Craig Victor II and pinpoint perimeter shooters in senior guard Keith Hornsby and freshman guard Antonio Blakeney.

But talent on paper doesn’t always translate into success on the hardwood, just ask LSU coach Johnny Jones and company as they enter the season’s last week clawing for an at-large bid.

As speculation surrounding its tournament destiny continues, LSU rolls into its regular-season home finale against Missouri at 8 p.m. tonight in the PMAC. At this point in the season, the goal is simple: just win.

“We really are just focusing on winning one game at a time,” Hornsby said. “For the Florida game, we knew [what kind of] team they were and the challenge possessed when they came in here. We took care of business that night although the ending wasn’t very pretty.”

LSU’s 96-91 win against Florida on Saturday featured a dynamic, balanced offense with all five starters scoring in double figures, including 54 points combined from Simmons and Blakeney.

Looking forward against Missouri (10-19, 3-13 SEC) and Kentucky on Saturday , the pressure rests on Blakeney’s shoulders to continue his development as

Dominant pitching staff ’s consistency key to Tigers’ success

BY MARC STEVENS @Marc_TDR The No. 5 LSU softball team’s bats has been on fire this season.

Seven of their 13 wins have come off the mercy rule, averaging nearly 11 runs per game in those matchups.

But the Tigers’ (13-2) offense has overshadowed a commanding pitching staff.

Sophomore pitcher Carley Hoover has taken the role of ace for the Tigers. Fellow pitchers, sophomore Allie Walljasper, junior Baylee Corbello and fresh-

man Sydney Smith, add muchneeded depth to the rotation.

No matter who coach Beth Torina gives the ball to in the circle, the pitcher of the day performs well.

“This is what we expect from them,” Torina said. “They are that talented where they can have [dominant] performances, and it’s nice being able to utilize all of them. Getting them all some work, so as we get deeper into the season, they are all prepared.”

All four LSU pitchers have an earned run average below 2.00

and the group has a collective ERA of just 1.15. Walljasper’s 0.42 ERA leads the squad, but she is the only hurler with a loss, which is, in part, due to the ongoing defensive fielding issues for the team.

LSU’s opposition has crossed the plate eight times while Walljasper is in the circle, but just two of those runs have been earned.

In her two losses, she has allowed only one earned run. Both runs scored in her 2-1 loss to Pacific on Feb. 13 were unearned.

The explosive Tiger offense has been relatively quiet in

games Walljapser starts, averaging 2.25 runs per contest. In contrast, the Tigers average 9.27 runs in games she doesn’t.

“We’ve been having trouble, for whatever reason, getting her some runs,” said junior outfielder Bailey Landry. “We need to start giving her some support, because she’s been pitching her butt off.”

Hoover has arguably been the most outstanding performer for the Tigers, leading the team in wins with five and strikeouts

Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots ‘Starlight Racing’ offers fun night out

BY LAUREN HEFFKER @laurheffker

Horses compete in one of the nine nighttime races Feb. 26 at Starlight Racing at the Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots in New Orleans.

The New Orleans Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots, Home of the Louisiana Derby, offers something old and new for attendees with its Starlight Racing series.

Starlight Racing began roughly eight years ago as a biweekly event. Now, it has evolved to one Friday night a month. Starlight Racing differs from the Fair Grounds’ regular thoroughbred racing season, offering racegoers a different night out.

Group sales manager Mary Cay Kern said the Fair Grounds created Starlight Racing to increase repeat business and attract the interest of other market demographics — young upcoming professionals, in particular.

“The goal with it is to have the groups of the people that come, return,” she said.

The Fair Grounds offers entertainment to accompany the races, including a fourth floor Clubhouse and trackside Miller Time Beer Garden tent. The Clubhouse hosts a different live band each month, while the Miller tent houses a disk jockey, a fluorescent light show and go-go dancers.

The Clubhouse includes a dining room, and the trackside tent is accompanied by several food trucks. Those over 21 can try their luck at one of the Fair Grounds’ 600 slot machines, or bet on the races.

Kern said Starlight Racing has been a success since its debut. The lively atmosphere and

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT

DJ Rae talks rising career, musical influences and future goals

BY DILLON LOWE d_lowe96 Producer, promoter and philosophy sophomore Kaylee Dinot, better known as DJ Rae, is putting her own spin on the traditional Southern disc jockey format.

Dinot’s career began her freshman year at the University, when she was noticed by DJ Ya Boy Earl, a prominent Baton Rouge producer, while performing at her birthday party.

DJ Ya Boy Earl, who used to manage and DJ for Kevin Gates, was instrumental in getting Dinot started in the competitive Baton Rouge DJ scene. He showed her the importance of promotion

and marketing in launching a career as a performer.

“The hardest part is getting the gigs and making a name for yourself,” Dinot said. “It really just depends on how passionate you are.”

She started by performing with DJ Ya Boy Earl across Louisiana and Mississippi, but before long she was getting booked at clubs in Tigerland and downtown Baton Rouge.

Dinot is currently a resident DJ at Vibes every Friday night.

Now that she’s able to find work all around the city, she’s focusing her energy on helping other Baton Rouge artists promote themselves and find gigs.

On March 5, she’ll be

performing at a local artist showcase at The Spanish Moon with fellow Baton Rouge performers Shaunzy, Nice Dog and The Chambers. Dinot works as a promoter for Shaunzy, an LSU student and hip hop artist, and Nice Dog, an indie alternative band.

Dinot says she’s able to differentiate herself from other Baton Rouge DJs by incorporating elements of indie and alternative rap into a club scene that’s long been dominated by bounce and trap music.

“I try to set myself apart from other DJs by hosting cheap showcases for local artists that anybody can afford,” she said.

things are a little simpler because the race is between two contenders.

Former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton underperformed with white people in both Iowa and New Hampshire, but minorities in Nevada and South Carolina brought her two much-needed victories against Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Ver. Like Cruz and Kasich, Sanders performed exceptionally well in Iowa and New Hampshire due to white voters in both areas embracing his radical “revolution.”

I keep emphasizing white because South Carolina’s crippling defeat reveals just how little his message resonates with minorities.

Super Tuesday’s white voters bring another problem for Sanders as well. Unlike the white voters who came before, Democrats voting today — particularly in the south — tend to be more conservative.

Clinton will likely lead in most of the states, giving herself a comfortable delegate count.

Sanders will have to overperform in almost every state to offset Clinton’s lead in superdelegates. She is currently slaughtering Sanders with more than 450 superdelegates committed to vote for her at the national convention.

Superdelegates do tilt the odds in Clinton’s favor, but Sanders knew what he was signing up for. If Sanders didn’t want to deal with superdelegates, he should’ve just run as an independent.

Superdelegates keep primary results in check. If an insurgent candidate like Trump was to do well in the primaries, superdelegates could make it difficult for the candidate to secure the nomination at the convention.

The Republican Party did away with superdelegates this year, and, given Trump’s lead, I predict this will be the last election for them without superdelegates.

PITCHING, from page 3 with 48. In her most recent performance, the Clemson, South Carolina native tallied 15 strikeouts in a 5-3 win against Texas Tech Sunday.

The sophomore pitcher downplayed the outing and said she was not aware of the strikeout total.

“I’m not really worried about my numbers,” Hoover said.

“We’re getting better every time we take the field, and that’s all that matters.”

Hoover and Walljasper have started the bulk of games in the circle, but Smith and Corbello’s

HATS, from page 3 this year — most recently in Saturday’s win against Texas Tech.

Facing a 2-0 deficit in the bottom of the seventh and down to their last out, the Tigers pulled out all of their rally hats and masks in hopes for a comeback victory.

With a crowd of more than

“She controls the mood and atmosphere of the party whenever she performs,” Shaunzy said.

“She’s not afraid to grab the mic and get the crowd into it.”

Dinot occasionally gets nervous before performing since she’s still relatively new to the scene, but she said she’s eager to keep improving.

“I want to release a mixtape of my own eventually,” Dinot said.

“Working in the studio is just as much fun as doing shows and it’s a lot less pressure. You’re able to be yourself, relax and practice as much as you want.”

talent give the coaching staff the ability to rest them for a game or two.

Corbello is the most tenured Tiger pitcher with three years under her belt, and it shows in her play.

Statistically, the junior has been the most difficult matchup for opposing hitters, holding them to a .214 batting average.

She also has won and completed each of the three games started for LSU. Smith is off to a solid start in her rookie campaign winning two of her three starts with the third yielding no decision. Her ERA is second on the team with

a 0.50 and has allowed just one earned run.

LSU’s pitching will be key to a return trip to the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City. If the staff maintains the high level of play into Southeastern Conference matchups, the Tigers could be in for a special season, Torina said.

“I still feel we have a long way to go,” Torina said. “We have some moments of greatness and we have some moments that need serious improvement and need to be better. ... Hopefully we can continue to get better and play our best softball nearer to the end of the season.”

1,500 in attendance, and her teammates cheering her on with Iron Man masks and Captain America helmets, junior third baseman Sahvanna Jaquish stepped up to the plate and became the hero the Tigers needed.

Jaquish belted a two-run home run over left-center field wall to tie the game against the Red Raiders. An unlikely hero capped

off the rally for the Tigers.

Junior Bailey Landry, not known as a power hitter, blasted her first home run of the season to win the contest for Tigers.

“When we put the rally mask on or the rally hat, whatever it might be, we get in the opponent’s head,” Quinn said. “We’re all pumped up and crazy, and I see that helps out a lot.”

hype surrounding Starlight Racing bring in first-time racegoers and seasoned returners, and the event is convenient, inexpensive and enjoyable for college students, Kern said.

Although the tradition and prestige of the horse races have evolved throughout history, it is still very much a social event and remains a place to see and be seen.

“Horse racing is a dying occupation,” Kern said. “[Starlight Racing is] getting people back

As the third-oldest operating horse track in the country, New Orleans tradition was for people to attend the races with their parents and grandparents.

Since its formation in 1852, the Fair Grounds have evolved from a target demographic of older, wealthy men to a diverse crowd of spectators.

“We want to keep that tradition alive and also go to all demographics,” she said. “Everybody can be there.”

The Fair Grounds cater to large groups and parties and have ties to the University. LSU’s Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity holds its annual “Day at the Races” event at the Fair Grounds, and the race track also hosts its yearly College Night.

General admission for Starlight Racing is $5 and admission to the Clubhouse or Miller Time Beer Garden is an additional $5. The Fair Grounds has free parking for all events.

The next Starlight Racing event of the 2015-2016 season is March 11.

Besides the matchup’s potential effects on LSU’s postseason hopes, tonight marks the last regular season game Gray and Hornsby will play in the PMAC. The senior duo took a quick break from tournament talk to reminisce on what they have learned through their experiences at LSU. Hornsby reflected on how his time at LSU has changed his perspective.

“There’s been good [memories],” he said. “There’s been bad. I actually appreciate the bad ones. They help shape you. I feel like without those I wouldn’t be as far along as a human being.”

Looking back on his two seasons at LSU, Gray summed it up — he grew up.

Although Gray will take the court tonight for possibly the final time at the PMAC, Hornsby has accepted his role as the team’s motivator on the bench.

“That’s a hard pill to swallow right there,” Hornsby said.

“I would never have imagined it to happen, but there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s senior night.

I’ll still be in the building and hopefully, witness a win.”

LSU’s premier perimeter shooter while Hornsby is sidelined indefinitely with a groin tear.

Since Hornsby went down against Tennessee on Feb. 20, Blakeney averages 24.7 points per game while shooting 51.1 percent from the field, including an 8-for-16 clip from three-point territory.

“Everybody stepped up [against Florida],” Blakeney said.

“We had five or six guys in double figures, which is good. When we have some balance scoring like that, we will be hard to beat.”

LSU (17-12, 10-6 SEC) has the opportunity to showcase its conference-leading offense against the Missouri’s 10th-ranked scoring defense, which allows 72.4 points per game. When the squad reaches or surpasses its season average of 80.1 points, LSU holds a 11-3 record.

Despite most writing it off as a National Invitation Tournament-bound team, LSU isn’t convinced of this fate as they remain confident in their talent on both ends of the floor heading into a bout with the Tigers from Columbia.

“I think we have the players and the coaching staff,” said senior guard Josh Gray. “We are
