It might be dead week at Oklahoma State, but at Tumbleweed Dancehall & Concert Venue, it’s livelier than ever. Thursday was the first of three nights for the annual Tumbleweed Calf Fry Festival. In its 25th year, the venue welcomed people from all around Oklahoma to enjoy food, games and red dirt music. Josiah Rossdeutscher, an entrepreneur management senior, said he liked the atmosphere. “It’s just a really great opportunity to reconnect and have a good time and dance and let off some steam going into finals week,” Rossdeutscher said. Venue-goers could enjoy traditional calf fry, grab a drink and ride a mechanical bull while their favorite artists played on the stage. The night started with a performance from Sam Riggs, and Corey Smith and Aaron Smith followed. Drew Harakal played his second Calf Fry on the keyboards for the Sam Riggs Band. “The crowd here is great,” Harakal said. A stage filled with smoke and bright lights welcomed the Josh Abbott Band as the final performer of the night.

The performers used as much audience participation as they could, encouraging them to sing along and be a part of their performance. “Everyone at Calf Fry is so nice, and you can dance with anyone and have a good time listening to some good country music,” Rossdeutscher said. Olivia Robinson, a Wellston resident, said her favorite part of Calf Fry is the live entertainment. Joshua Hurt, a business management senior, said it was his first time to attend Calf Fry. After five minutes at the festival, he said he met some new people. “I’ve always heard of Calf Fry and wondered about this event,” Hurt said. “It’s very well known around the state for people to come into Stillwater to get together and enjoy some good wholesome country music. It’s a great way to interact and enjoy people’s company that you wouldn’t necessarily know was here in Stillwater.” Molly Pattison, a Norman resident, said it’s a big social event in which you can talk to anyone. “Be ready for a party,” Hurt said.

Eli Young Band will bring unreleased music to Calf Fry

C at h e r i n e Appling Staf f Rep orter

Calf Fry is guaranteed fun not only for the audience but also for the Eli Young Band. The Eli Young Band, originally from Texas, will perform Friday at Calf Fry Music Festival. “Calf Fry definitely brings a festival audience,” drummer Chris Thompson said in a phone interview. “They want to be entertained and have a different kind of energy.” The Eli Young Band is most recognized for its hit, “Crazy Girl,” which received an Academy of Country Music Award for Song of the Year. “Crazy Girl” also became a double-platinum single and the No. 1 most

played country song of the year on Billboard’s 2011 year-end chart. Eli Young Band has had three No. 1 hits as well as a Grammy nomination. All four members of the band have been together since the band’s start in 2000, when they began performing while attending the University of North Texas. “The downside is being away from family, but with how long we’ve known each other, the band is family,” Thompson said. Thompson said the band members are quirky, saying they aren’t the “coolest guys around” with their goofy and bad jokes. The band’s latest album, “10,000 Towns,” was released in 2014 and was based on the group’s tour experience. The album includes upbeat, positive songs that were different than Eli Young Band’s previous work. The band will release a new single in the next two to three weeks with a new

ent things on its records to produce a different sound. It never does the same record twice, Thompson said. The Eli Young Band has played in Stillwater for the past 10 years. It made its start in Oklahoma on The Strip in Stillwater. “Stillwater knows us and our show, so we try to up the ante for them,” Thompson said. Beacuse Stillwater knows the Eli Young Band so well, it will perform new, unreleased music at Calf Fry to see the audience’s reaction. “Stillwater definitely reacts,” Thompson said. “You know if they like a song or not.” AFFORDABLE The band members’ goal is to engage AMAZING the audience during theirTOWNHOUSE performance. “We try to take the audience different bath 2 through bedroom/1.5 moods, but nothing too 895 sq. ft. heavy,” Thompson said. “It’s water and sewer still a fun concert.”

Shane Smith & The Saints to perform second time at Calf Fry

C at h e r i n e Appling Staf f Rep orter

Road tours can be tough on any musician. Shane Smith, lead vocalist for Shane Smith & The Saints knows that well. “We are still at that grinding period of our career,” Smith said. “It’s not like we have a tour bus. We take turns for driving, and sometimes that can be a 14-hour

drive, but if we have time, we’ll definitely stop by (Eskimo) Joe’s.” Smith & The Saints, a country, folk and rock band, first got its start in Oklahoma when it toured with Turnpike Troubadours. Tim Schoelen, of OKC Mustang Brewing Company, helped get Smith & The Saints “rolling” in the Oklahoma music scene, booking it for company events and calling other companies, Smith said. The band will play at Calf Fry on Saturday night, which Smith said is the way music festivals should be. “You get to see bands and hang out with friends,” Smith said. “It’s relaxed and laidback. Lots of festivals are uptight and are almost a drag to go to, but Calf Fry is a great festival, and we’re glad to be

a part of it.” The band’s first invitation to play the festival came last year. Scott Marsh, Coordinator of Operations at Levelland Productions, is a friend of the band and offered it a spot on stage for the first night of Calf Fry last year. The band is excited to showcase its sound of four-part harmonies and the energy it brings to its shows. The band has high-energy sound that makes for a sweaty, loud show, Smith said. “We want everyone walking away having had some fun,” Smith said. This fall, band members will cross the pond to perform at the Red Dirt Pub Crawl in Dublin, Ireland. They also will release their next album, “Geronimo,” in the

OSU provides unique summer opportunities for K-12 NIXON GIVES COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS President Richard Nixon became the first by KATIE ROSEBROOK

Numerous academic and athletic summer camps on the Stillwater campus give students the chance to learn directly from college professors and coaches. Students have the opportunity to not only learn more about topics that interest them, but also see what Oklahoma State has to offer. Some former camp participants are now OSU undergraduates and credit their college choice to their experience. Andrew Bay, a senior sports media major from Wichita, was unsure of his college plans going into his junior year of high school. His sister was a student at OSU, and he received a flier for Sports Media Camp, hosted by the School of Media & Strategic Communications. “I guess they knew I was interested in sports media, and it just happened to work well into my summer schedule,” said Bay in reference to his decision to attend the camp. Although he already knew about OSU because of his sister, Bay said attending Sports Media Camp had a massive impact on FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 2016

his college decision. “I ended up touring five different schools, and every time I went through their broadcast departments I was comparing it to my experience during Sports Media camp,” Bay said. Bay encourages students to sign up for these camps because of his experience with the curriculum and professors. “The investment that all of these professors and professionals are putting into you is invaluable,” Bay said. “Just a weekend of work with them will make you more talented in whatever you do, and maybe you’ll get to see how amazing OSU is as well.” Sports Media camp is in its tenth year, but other camps, such as Teen Writers’ Camp, are just beginning. Teen Writer’s Camp, which is hosted by the OSU Writing Project, was created to provide outreach and opportunities for area students. Participants will learn to write creatively to and about music, compose song lyrics and perform their music or have it performed for them. “Students will gain opportunities to work

with published authors and recording artists who are eager to work with area students,” said Shelbie Witte, director of the OSU Writing Project. “Tips on how to publish writing as well as how to continue writing songs will be included.” For a full camp listing, visit academicaffairs. okstate.edu/content/summer-camps.

OSU storm refuges don’t meet FEMA criteria to be community shelters

Daniel Norman Sta ff Re porte r

The Oklahoma State storm refuges don’t meet the Federal Emergency Management Agency requirements to be considered shelters. Before severe storms moved into Stillwater on Tuesday, OSU Campus Safety put out

several posts on its Facebook page regarding severe weather safety, one of which said OSU’s facilities were not public shelters. “OSU’s buildings are not FEMA certified public storm shelters for the city of Stillwater,” according to the campus safety Facebook post. “For individuals not on campus, it is recommended to shelter in place or seek an alternative refuge.” The OSU Campus Safety office then put out another Facebook post Thursday to clarify the school’s buildings were open to students, faculty and guests. Campus safety also included tips for severe weather and a

map of storm refuge locations with these Facebook posts. Carrie Hulsey-Greene, associate director of communications, said the refuges are not open to the general public not only because they are not designated as FEMA public storm shelters, but also because the university would lack the capacity for the influx from the city. “Those are two major safety issues,” Hulsey-Greene said. Hulsey-Greene said because the facilities are not “public shelters,” not all of them would be open all of the time. Ronald Hill, the manager of emergency operations, said OSU does not use the term “shelter” to avoid confusion

because the facilities do not meet the FEMA guidelines for shelters, but it doesn’t mean the facilities on campus are not safe. “That doesn’t mean a basement is not a protected facility; it just doesn’t meet the FEMA criteria to be called a community shelter,” Hill said. “It’s underground. That’s some of the best protection you can get. We’re just reluctant to call it a ‘shelter.’” Hill said to bring even a few of the facilities on campus up to the FEMA codes would be costly. “We looked at trying to potentially put in a facility that met that criteria for the new Commons facility,” Hill said. “(It was) $4.5 million just for the commons alone, just to meet the FEMA criteria of a community shelter, and that would only be for those buildings and nobody else.” OSU has storm refuges in 27

Oklahoma appeals court rules oral sex with unconscious person is not rape

Christie Ta p p s taf f rep orter

The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals ruled oral

sex with an unconsciously inebriated individual does not constitute rape. The unanimous ruling came from a case where a boy, 17, was accused of assaulting a girl, 16, who had been drinking and passed out while the boy was driving the FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 2016

girl to her grandma’s house, where the alleged assault took place. The girl was later taken to the hospital where she was given a sexual assault examination and found DNA evidence of the boy’s sperm around her mouth, according to reports. The boy told investigators that the girl consented to oral sex, but the girl claimed she had no memory of the event. Tulsa prosecutors charged the boy with first-degree rape and oral sodomy as a youthful offender in April 2015. The trial judge dismissed the case on July 1. The state appealed the trial court’s decision to the Okla-

The court reasoning stemmed from an Oklahoma criminal statute lacking wording to allow intoxicated victims of sexual violence to bring a successful claim.” homa appeals court but was denied. The court reasoning stemmed from an Oklahoma criminal statute lacking wording to allow intoxicated victims of sexual violence to bring a successful claim. The statement read, “Forcible Sodomy cannot occur where a victim is so intoxicated as OCOLLY.COM

to be completely unconscious at the time of the sexual act of oral copulation.” Because oral forcible sodomy is not within the statues, the judge ruled to dismiss the case. According to the 21 Okl. St. Ann.§ 1111, “rape is an act of sexual intercourse involving vaginal or anal

penetration accomplished with a male or female who is not the spouse of the perpetrator and who may be of the same or the opposite sex as a perpetrator.” The Oklahoma Criminal Court of Appeals decision has reverberated into mainstream news, leaving the question open to the Oklahoma State Legislature whether to amend the forced sodomy law to include inebriated victims of oral sexual violence. The legislature has a mandate to amend the criminal statute to include oral sexual violence. f o l l o w o c o l ly : @ o c o l ly PAGE 8

One small, purposeless wrist bone cost two Oklahoma State baseball players a month of their season. Conor Costello and Colin Simpson missed 19 games each with broken hamate hooks. Costello, who plays outfield and pitches, broke his left hamate and went more than a month without an at-bat. Simpson, a catcher who bats left-handed, missed all of March with a broken right hamate. When a hamate hook breaks, surgeons remove it, but the pain of the break costs the person his or her grip strength while causing sharp pain from the affected wrist to the fingertips. The injury is common FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 2016

DEVIN WILBER/O’COLLY Colin Simpson missed March after an injury. He broke his hamate, an injury resulting from repeated swings.

among baseball players. With each swing the player takes, the knob of the bat potentially digs into the wrist of his lower hand. Over time, the bone wears down and breaks. The standard recovery time is four weeks. A player’s grip has a huge impact on the possibility of the injury, OSU coach Josh Holliday said. Players who grip the bat higher are less susceptible to the injury, but it’s no guarantee the hamate won’t break. “If you’re a guy that grips down at the very bottom of the bat, that bone might take on great amount of force when you swing,” Holliday said. “If you grip up higher, you might not quite put that strain on that part of your wrist. Your grip on the bat is a little bit of an instinctual thing. I don’t

think it’s safe to say that if you choke up, you’re guaranteed to not hurt your wrist, or if you’re at the bottom, you’re going to hurt your wrist.” Simpson grips the bat closer to the bottom, but Costello tends to choke up. Shortstop Donnie Walton broke his right hamate in the Cowboys’ season opener at Arizona State a year ago. Walton, a switch-hitter, first felt pain in his right hand during an intrasquad game earlier that spring. In the weeks leading up to the season, he batted left-handed only twice, he said. Walton grips the bat higher right-handed than left-handed. In the game against the Sun Devils, Walton said, he felt the pain during his fourth plate appearance, STORY CONTINUES ON PAGE 11

his second batting lefthanded, dropping his bat. Walton finished the at-bat but struggled to pick up a ball when he returned to the dugout. He had to be replaced in the field. “It was just the worst, just sharp pain just going through my fingertips,” Walton said. “I knew something was wrong.” Walton also missed 19 games before making his return in OSU’s Big 12 opener against TCU. He was named to the AllBig 12 First Team. As the Cowboys head to Austin, Texas, for a

c owb oy bas eball three-game series with the Longhorns, the hamates of the three players are gone. Their talent is not. Walton leads OSU with a .365 average. Since returning, Costello is 4-for-9 with a threerun home run. Simpson came back with seven hitless at-bats but has two home runs since. “Two weeks before it broke, I just thought it was a bruise,” Simpson said. “I just left it alone. Didn’t think anything of it. We were playing in North Carolina, and I took a swing in the middle of my at-bat, and I just felt a pop.

“That week, I had surgery.” Some Cowboys, including Walton, use a special protective pad to protect their wrists. Walton also uses a bat with a bigger knob to prevent his hand from resting on it in hopes of avoiding breaking his left hamate.
