Student film taps into storytelling Madeline Gavatorta Staff Writer

When 47-year-old Jason Swauger suffered a partial tear of his hamstring from a split gone wrong during the filming of “A Tap Dancer Murders Her Father,” student director Caleb Porto didn’t want to continue.

“Even though he was fine, I was so done with the film. I didn’t want [another injury] to happen,” Porto said.

Swauger — who plays William, the father in the film — said he felt the pain for months after the final shoots in June. teaser Swauger thought he had broken his whole egrduhwgcugreuivleg, but he persevered nonetheless, insistgeugvuiegvueviue ing to senior mechanical engineering major Porto that the crew go through two more Pittsburgh Center for the Arts Artist of the Year Jo-Anne Bates discusses her artwork Thursday night. shots.

ICE OFFICIALS MAKE ARREST IN OAKLAND

News ICE, pg. 1

Some Craig Street restaurant employees said ICE targeted a second restaurant, and a Facebook post from Liana Maneese alleged ICE picked up three people, but officials only reported one arrest.

Social media users began posting about the raid early Thursday afternoon.

Some users expressed concern, warning community members and encouraging locals to notify their neighbors.

In response to inquiries from Twitter users about the searches, Mayor Bill Peduto tweeted that the City’s law enforcement did not receive any notifications from ICE and that he had limited information regarding the arrests made by a federal agency.

Several employees of other Craig Street businesses were aware of the arrests. An employee at Yuva India, who didn’t give a name for privacy reasons, said they saw several black Suburbans with government plates that the employee concluded belonged to ICE. Under President Donald Trump, ICE arrests have increased. Arrests increased 30 percent during the 2017 fiscal year compared to 2016. Yesterday, ICE conducted a nationwide sweep of 7-Eleven stores, making 21 arrests.

Some Tweets and Facebook posts referenced the recent raids of 7-Eleven stores, warning undocumented immigrants about the presence of ICE in Oakland.

Caleb Porto’s short film “A Tap Dancer Murders Her Father” premiered at the Frick Fine Arts Building Thursday night.

Christian Snyder ONLINE VISUAL EDITOR

Tap, pg. 1 of the 20th century and is mostly filmed in the father’s bedroom.

The first scene introduces Lauren, frustrated with her father’s disapproval of her lover, Henry, as clarinets play in the background. Bailey said this scene shows how her character, Lauren, feels — that her father is purposely making her miserable by keeping her from what gives her joy in life.

“She feels that he doesn’t acknowledge her presence. They don’t connect on any purpose … she doesn’t see any other way out than to actually kill him,” Bailey said.

After writing a letter to Henry, Lauren

walks to her father’s room to murder him.

However, her plan is foiled when the vibrations made by her tap shoes cause a glass of water on her father’s nightstand to fall and abruptly wake him up. Junior mechanical engineering major Eli Kauffman said this is his favorite part.

“I think the scene where she comes in and puts that one foot on the floor and it’s a tap shoe, I think that part is hysterical, it cracks me up every time,” Kauffman said.

Although not a parent himself, Swauger said he can still make connections between the relationship William and Lauren have to the relationship he has with his own mother, who is also a tap dancer.

“She tap danced her whole life, and then we finally got to tap dance together when she choreographed one of my shows, so it was almost exactly the same as the film,” Swauger said. “It was the coolest thing, and it was very much like the father-daughter relationship.”

The film continues with the father explaining to Lauren, who hid her murder weapon behind her back when he woke, that he was a tap dancer as well but stopped because of his wife — Lauren’s mother — who is implied to have died. The film ends as the dance does — with the father dying from a weak and exhausted heart.

Porto said he submitted the film to five or six different film festivals, such as Ann Arbor and Flagler, the latter of which nominated the film in three different categories — best director in Anything Goes Dark, Indie Auteur and Most Creative.

Porto said he got the idea after noticing

January 12, 2018

the lack of — and usual insignificance of — tap dancers in most films. He met Kauffman in a mechanical engineering class and pitched the idea to him there.

“One of the first things we talked about when we first met each other was this film, this idea for this film and so it’s been something that like is amazing to had happened,” Kauffman said. “There was absolutely no hesitation in doing this project.”

Porto later asked junior film and communications major Sam McCoy, whom he knew from a dance film of hers he helped her make last spring, if she would choreograph the film. McCoy agreed to being a part of Porto’s film because of how interesting and creative the script was.

UPTV station manager Cassidy Fischer, a senior film studies and communications major, came out to see the film produced by her longtime friends — McCoy, Porto and Kauffman. She said it was great to see them coming together on a film.

“I know all of their talents individually, so being able to see them together was wonderful,” Fischer said.

McCoy said the stress surrounding the crew and actors — who filmed the entire movie in three days — was immense, but to her that indicated the film would be successful.

“The stress is bad — it’s toxic, of course — but if you’re stressed out about something it means that you love something and you’re passionate about it,” McCoy said. “If it doesn’t make your heart beat faster, even if it’s in a stressful way, it’s not worth doing.”

Even at universities like Pitt, where Greek life isn’t a huge part of student life — 69 percent of students interviewed at Niche.com say that Greek life at Pitt is just “average” — it can still be a defining part of the college social scene. And although few in numbers, fraternities have still had their share of problems here.

ordinary content for a magazine at the dentist office.

I am not attempting to ease blame off of fraternity members who commit heinous acts against women, but a real solution to sexual assault would need to come from the top.

Despite their less-than-savory past, universities could actually use fraternities as a starting point to change the culture on college campuses.

A sustainable and continuing education program on sexual assault and the dangers of toxic masculinity among members needs to be implemented, like the one that began at Michigan State University this past December.

Also, fraternities could focus on recruiting men based on their character rather than their desire for endless alcohol and ragers. Recruiting men that are easily pressured into accepting the ideals of a fraternity whose overarching mindset involves that of toxic masculinity can be dangerous.

For formal recruitment under the National Panhellenic Conference, sororities can actually be fined if they are discovered to have talked about alcohol and drugs to potential members.

For some reason, sorority recruitment follows much stricter rules than fraternity recruitment.

I cannot guarantee encouraging values-based recruitment among all fraternities would ensure a brotherhood based on actual friendship instead of alcohol and sexual conquests, but it definitely wouldn’t hurt to try.

A serious, sustainable conversation among all Greek organizations needs to begin. And it can’t just be from student representatives droning on a platform while members roll their eyes and fantasize about the beer cans they’re going to shotgun after the presentation is over. Members need to actively be involved — and maybe one day fraternity members will be known less for committing sexual assaults and more for being the ones to stop them.

Sports LUTHER RULED OUT FOR THE SEASON Grant Burgman Sports Editor

The Pitt men’s basketball team has played its last seven games without its only senior — forward Ryan Luther — and on Thursday Pitt announced that Luther won’t play another game this season.

Luther went down during Pitt’s Dec. 9 game against West Virginia with a stress reaction in his right foot. Pitt head coach Kevin Stallings revealed Thursday that Luther’s injury wasn’t healing as expected.

“Ryan’s injury has not responded as well as we had hoped, and our medical team has recommended shutting him down for the remainder of the season,” Stallings said. “Everyone involved agrees that it is in his best interest to rest the foot and allow it adequate time to make a complete recovery.”

Despite being in his last year of eligibility, Luther may still be able to play for the Panthers next year. He plans to apply for a medical hardship, a waiver that allows college athletes to gain an extra year of eligibility if they play less than 30 percent of the team’s games in a season.

At the time of the injury, Luther was the Panthers’ second leading scorer and leading rebounder, averaging 12.7 points per game and 10.1 rebounds per game.

Luther missed 12 games last year with an injury in the same foot.

Steelers seek redemption on Sunday Dominic Campbell Staff Writer

With a forecasted low of 2 degrees in Pittsburgh Sunday, the Jacksonville Jaguars won’t have the luxury of playing in the warm Florida sun when they play the Steelers at Heinz Field in the AFC divisional playoffs.

The Steelers finished the regular season with a 13-3 record, which gave them the AFC North division title and tied them with the New England Patriots for the best record in the conference.

The Jaguars come into the game as the AFC South champions at 10-6 and are the No. 4 seed in the conference. They won their playoff game last weekend at home against the Buffalo Bills, 10-3, which was their first playoff win since their last postseason appearance in 2007.

The last time the Jaguars made the playoffs, they beat the Steelers at Heinz Field, 31-29.

They also became the first and only team to beat the Steelers twice at home in one season, as they beat the Steelers in the 2007 regular season as well.

Jacksonville will be looking to accomplish that same feat Sunday afternoon, since they already beat Pittsburgh at Heinz Field, 30-9, back in week five. In that game, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had one of the worst games of his career, throwing five interceptions, including two that the Jaguars returned for touchdowns.

Pittsburgh will be gearing up to get revenge with the recent memory of that embarrassing regular season loss. Roethlisberger especially will be looking to make up for his performance in the week five debacle.

“Obviously, any game that we’re going to play since it’s the postseason is going to be a difficult opponent,” Roethlisberger said on 93.7 The Fan. “But I think just for me personally, I’d love to just prove that five interceptions wasn’t me in that game.”

Roethlisberger has turned it around since then, helping lead the Steelers to a 10-1 record the rest of the regular season. He has thrown 22 touchdowns to seven interceptions since

Although Roethlisberger has played better, he should still be wary of a dominant Jacksonville defense. Jacksonville ranks second in total defense and sacks, allowing only 286.1 yards per game and racking up 55 sacks on the season.

The Jaguars also boast the best passing defense in the NFL, holding opponents to 169.9 yards per game and leading the NFL with 21 interceptions.

Cornerback Jalen Ramsey and defensive lineman Calais Campbell have been the main factors on Jacksonville’s terrorizing defense this season.

Ramsey ranked 10th in the NFL, with 17 passes defended and tied for 12th in the league with four interceptions this season. Campbell had the most sacks in the AFC this season with 14.5 sacks — a Jaguar record. Their performances this year led them both to make their first All-Pro team, with Ramsey making it in just his second season in the NFL.

January 12, 2018

Against the Steelers in week five, Ramsey played a huge role, intercepting Roethlisberger once and getting seven tackles, while Campbell had four tackles and four quarterback hits.

To combat the fearsome Jacksonville pass defense, the Steelers will need to lean on first team All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell.

In the regular season game with Jacksonville, Bell was only able to gain 47 yards rushing, while all-pro receiver Antonio Brown had a big game, making 10 catches for 157 yards. Sunday will be Brown’s first game back since suffering a leg injury in week 15 against the Patriots.

With Brown likely limited by his injury, establishing the run will be key for the Steelers Sunday. If Pittsburgh can get Bell going, the passing game will open up for Roethlisberger to carry the momentum he has gained over the last two months into the playoffs.

The biggest weak point of either team is Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles. Although Bortles had the best regular season in his career, in which he threw only 13 interceptions and completed 60 percent of his passes, he has played badly in his last two games of the season.

Against San Francisco and Tennessee, Bortles threw a combined two touchdowns and five interceptions. Jacksonville lost both games.

Bortles comes into this game after another mediocre performance against Buffalo, in which he ran for 88 yards and only passed for 87. Even the last time out against the Steelers, Bortles only had 95 yards passing, nine yards rushing and threw an interception.

If the Steelers’ defense can pressure him, Bortles will continue to struggle and it will likely cost his team the game. Bortles’ ineffectiveness these past few games will likely continue Sunday, especially with the frigid conditions.

As long as the Steelers can establish the run and put up some touchdowns on offense, they should be able to come away with the win and advance to the AFC Championship.

Prediction: Steelers 27, Jaguars 10

Competition. Now in its 10th year, the Big Idea competition is also open to all students (from undergrad to postdoctoral fellows) who have an idea that might make the basis for a startup or a new social enterprise. Sponsored through the generosity of Pitt trustee Bob Randall and his family, many past participants have gone on to launch their ideas as startups.

John Frazier and Nicole Xu, who earned degrees from the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs in 2016, first floated

their idea for a language translation platform at a Startup Blitz event, where they and fellow classmate Lujing Gao won the $1,500 top prize for their pitch.

They went on to compete in the Randall Family Big Idea Competition and launched their business, uTranslated, after completing the Pitt Blast Furnace student idea accelerator.

“We never intended to be entrepreneurs.

It just sort of worked out that we came up with this idea and we won the Startup Blitz
