A memorial service was held Thursday at Paris-Yates Chapel on the University of Mississip-pi’s campus to honor students, staff and faculty who have died this past academic year.

The names of the deceased were read aloud and the bells at Paris Yates Chapel were rung

23 times to honor each individ-ual. Afterwards, the University String Quartet played the Ole Miss Alma Mater.

“When we lose a member of the Ole Miss family, we are touched individually and col-lectively in different ways,” Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Brandi Hephner LaBanc said.

Former Daily Mississippian Editor-in-Chief Logan Kirkland read his piece, “Mourning the

loss of a friend I never knew.”“We are all a part of the Ole

Miss family and when one of us dies, we all feel the repercus-sions of the loss,” Kirkland said. “My words here will never artic-ulate the beauty of the lives we have lost, but I hope they make you understand that you do not mourn alone because losing a friend that you never had can and will change your life.”

A list of those who were being

honored was read by University Staff Council President Sovent Taylor, Faculty Senate Chair Mi-chael A. Barnett and Associated Student Body President Austin Powell. Gardenia flowers per-fumed the air as visiting fami-ly members and friends placed them in remembrance.

Ole Miss staff members re-membered included Robert S. Forster, Donald H. O’Dell and Ronny J. Tackett, Robert B.

Albritton, Ward Charles Barnes, James Ronald Bartlett, Goberd-ham Bhagat, James P. Cham-bers, James Jerome Cooke, Thomas Ashley Crowe, Colum-bus Burwell Hopper, Robert Lawrence Jordan, Frances B. Maxey, John Willis McCauley, Henry Pace, James E. Shollen-berger and Kenneth A. Stead, Jr. were the faculty commemorated

Their presence ‘blessed our lives’

PHOTOS BY: ARIEL COBBERT

Graduation can signify the beginning of a new job, intern-ship or uncertainty for stu-dents. For a select few, how-ever, it means taking the next step toward serving their coun-try.

More than 20 University of Mississippi ROTC cadets will receive their degree, commis-sion and promotion to second lieutenant at 5 p.m. next Satur-day at Fulton Chapel on cam-pus.

Typically, newly commis-sioned second officers have to wait a few months before leaving again for training ex-perience in the branch they will serve. Graduates will enter a branch-specific leadership course which will determine whether they become infantry-men, cavalry, aviation or an-other type of officer.

“Commissioning marks both the end of an incredibly chal-lenging and eye-opening col-lege experience and the begin-ning of a chapter that will allow us to take the lessons we’ve learned and use them in active-

ly changing lives and leading our soldiers in combat,” Cadet Harry Phillips said.

Phillips, a Chattanooga na-tive, will graduate with an En-glish degree this Saturday. Af-terwards, he will serve as an infantry officer in the National Guard while educating chil-dren through Teach for Amer-ica after graduation.

Once graduates assemble, they will take the oath of com-mission and swear to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domes-tic.” It is a significant moment

in their military careers and education, one that Phillips said civilian students may not grasp.

“One thing many people do not understand is that the com-missioners are not just joining the military but are being ap-pointed as Army officers by the (President of the United States) due to his “special trust and confidence in the patriotism, valor, fidelity and abilities” of the new second lieutenants,” Cadet Buckley Dowdle said.

An Olive Branch native, Dowdle will serve as an ord-nance officer in the logistics

branch with the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He will graduate with a degree in Accounting.

“Many will be commission-ing into the Mississippi Army National Guard, enduring the rigors of serving both their na-tion and their state while also excelling in civilian careers,” Dowdle said. “Others will serve in the active duty component of the Army, serving and deploy-ing as full time soldiers.”

Dowdle said lieutenants will serve as platoon leaders lead-ing between 30 and 50 soldiers within a year of graduation.

ADVERTISING STAFF:

MORGAN WALKERassistant news editor

Over the past semester, I’ve had the joy of working as the opinion editor here at The Dai-ly Mississippian. It has been a wonderful experience and I have been privileged to provide a plat-form for students’ opinions.

My only issue has been the series of complaints I have re-ceived from various students

which say the opinion section is too liberal.

I agree. It currently does not reflect the breadth of opinions on our campus. It leans heavily to the left, but that’s not my fault.

Instead of complaining about the opinion section, I need you to submit conservative opinions. I published almost every for-mally written opinion column I received this semester. The very few conservative columns I received reflect the reality that people with conservative politi-cal and social beliefs don’t take an hour to write a column.

I’ve been told that I promote propaganda and the opinion section is biased. Every single column is, in fact, biased. It’s the opinion section. Writers of the opinion section don’t report the news, we report how we feel about the news. At this point, I’m practically begging for a pro-

Trump supporter to send me an column praising the Donald. I can’t stand the man, but I want to share why you like him.

Unfortunately, instead of com-posing publishable columns, I get emails calling me a “libtard” and saying that I am destroying the campus. I’m not remotely insulted by these comments. Liberal isn’t an insult to me, no more than “woman” or “South-ern.” It’s just part of who I am.

To be a cliché, Kumbaya, lib-eral hippie nightmare, I’m going to quote Gandhi: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” Instead of sending emails and complaining on Yik Yak, perhaps it’s time to actually contribute to the newspaper.

The opinion section has been a wonderful platform for me. I have won awards based on my writings and it has truly been an honor to work for The Daily Mis-

sissippian. If people choose to complain rather than contribute, that’s ultimately on them. How-ever, the opinion section can be a platform to share your opin-ions on many, many subjects. As election season approaches, I hope someone steps up to sup-port Trump and bash the Dem-ocratic nominee. I don’t doubt that liberal writers will step up to do the opposite.

I don’t know why liberals and progressives write for The Daily Mississippian more than conser-vatives, but as my final goodbye to Ole Miss and the paper: please write columns instead of angry emails. Of the two, one gets de-leted and one gets published.

We need your opinions, too.

at the event.The students honored were

Bryce Berry, Andrew Fox, Anas-tasia Hirsch, Taina Laporte, Carli Sears and Alison Tuberville.

“The Ole Miss family extends beyond those we are here but to their families as well,” Hephner LaBanc said. “We want to give [the families] the opportunity to [come] back and remind them we are remembering their loved ones.”

Ty Alluschuski, assistant to the vice chancellor, was in charge of planning the ceremony.

“The memorial ceremony is a great tradition on our campus, and certainly something that means a lot too many different people,” Alluschuski said.

The University has held the me-morial service on campus on the last Thursday of classes during the spring semester since 2008. The event was open to the cam-pus community, family members and the general public.

“We find, however, that the grief and sadness that accompa-nies our losses one day will give way to remembrance and ap-preciation of the life of that per-son whose presence blessed our lives,” Hephner LaBanc said.

OPEN HAPPINESS… AND A JAIL SENTENCEOur very own Oxford Police Department caught Jimmy Ev-

ans stealing from vending machines, and we aren’t talking a few dollars here and there. Evans allegedly stole around $20,000 in hard cash from vending machines around Oxford in a series of crimes dating back to September 2015. According to the Daily Journal, Evans is a retired Coca-Cola employee who kept his employee key for the machines and used it to his advantage. Evans was unlocking vending machines and taking cash out for himself. He turned himself in to OPD on Wednes-day.

WELCOME TO HATTIESBURG, HOME OF THE HATTIESBURGER

Can I take your order? Rick Taylor, head of tourism efforts in Hattiesburg, announced that city residents will now be re-ferred to as “Hattiesburgers.” The title was part of a contest sponsored by Visit Hattiesburg. Hattiesburger beat out 31 oth-er possible names including Hub Citian. According to the Hat-tiesburg American, historical society members in Hattiesburg have issues with the new title. Historically, residents of the city have been called Hattiesburgans for over a hundred years, but Taylor is standing his ground for the new title. Can he get fries with that?

YOU JUST GOT ZIDANEDAccording to the Clarion Ledger, 22-year-old David An-

thony Scott was charged with simple assault of a law en-forcement officer this week. The unusual part? In true Eu-ropean football player Zinedine Zidane fashion (minus the soccer field), Scott head-butted an officer straight in the face. Scott faced other charges along with his violent outbreak - disturbing the peace and possession of narcotics are also at-tached to his name.

Taurus, the Bull: April 20- May 20

Gemini, the Twins: May 21- June 20

May is going to be good to you, Taurus. You’ve just spent a lot of time focused out of your mind on getting task after task done, and now you can finally sit back and let your creative juices flow. If you’ve made any big decisions lately, the stars indicate you should also take a breather on making any more, at least for a week or two. The stars also indicate that you will probably be kidnapped by pirates around the 18th, so remember to stay hy-drated out there on the high seas. Your ticket home will be a monkey that goes by the name of Captain Tootsie and his son, Jamal. When you meet them, make sure you tell them a good recipe for kababs as payment for safe passage to your homeland.

Oranges are a major key for you this month, Gem. Eat them. Drink them. Smell them. Hear them. Gain their strength and absorb their vitality and vitamin C. You’re going to be in a big rush this month as you try and tie up some loose ends before the summer starts, and it’s important to take some time to stop and breathe in the midst of all the chaos. And when you take these breaks, make sure you eat an orange. Mars will also be moving in on you this month, so you might find yourself suddenly thrust into battles and challenges at work, at home, or defending mankind from invading extraterrestrials. You’ll need your strength. And how will you get this strength? Through the awesome and mighty power of or-

Cancer, the Crab: June 21- July 22

Been a bit down in the dumps lately? Chin up, Cancer, things are about to turn around. The stars have foretold a month full of mu-sic and dancing this month, with fulfilling relationships and lots of opportunities for making lasting memories. This will be a great month for you to make lasting connections that can span long distances and even longer stretch-es of time. After all, love is eter-nal. This is also a great month for you to pick up the electric guitar or tambourine. This will also be a time of adjustment for you - you might need to get used to some new digs, change the temperature on your A/C or finally accept that you are a wizard. The key is to em-brace change, literally. Go around your entire house or apartment

Horoscopes

MCKENNA [email protected]

Leo, the Lion: July 23- August 22

There’s treachery afoot, Leo, and you need to be on your guard. A new environment in your future is full of unfamiliar faces, and not all of them should be trusted. It won’t be easy, what with your kind and friendly na-ture, but just be careful. Luckily this month, due to the position of Venus, the sensual planet, you will be able to smell other peo-ple’s personalities. This should ease the transition ahead, and make you more comfortable as you settle down. Your sense of smell will also make you very popular at wine tastings, cock-tail parties and search parties. If you are not a true Leo, you will not develop this ability. Howev-er, if you are not a true Leo, your outfit will be on point every day this month so you really don’t need to worry about anything.

Virgo, the Virgin: August 23- September 22

You’ve been patient a long time now, Virgo, and the time has finally come for you to shine again. You’re incredibly attractive, smart, funny and just downright charming, and now everyone is going to know. You’ll shine this month, Virgo, as you enter into a new season of the year and of your life where you will truly be able to discover who you are. You’ll also find yourself recon-necting with someone over an old bond or relationship around the 29th that could last for the next couple months. Best of all, due to the moon’s gravitational influence on you from the 12th to the 17th, this month you’re going to be bet-ter than average at swimming and golf, and you’ll wash and fold your clothes in one sitting at least twice.

Scorpio, the Scorpion: October 23- November 21

Sagittarius, the Archer: November 22- December 21

Lucky you, Scorpio. This month the cosmos tell me you are in for some very good luck. Your confi-dence should be through the roof, because you are going to have the best streak of good fortune you’ve had all year. Other people might be temporarily irked with you for happening upon such wondrous prosperity, but you’ve just got to boogie that hate away. In fact, Ju-piter is looking fondly on you, and as the king of the planets, has des-tined you to rise to disco royalty this month. So get out your most funk-a-licious shoes, grab some-one sweet and do whatever disco dance moves over to the nearest club to rise as the official Disco Champion of the Entire Universe.

This is a good month for you to take on a new goal, Sagittarius, and I have it on excellent cosmic authority you will be successful and fortunate in your endeavors. Seek and you shall find. Some-thing very great and mysterious awaits you out there in the great big world, and Pluto, planet (yes, planet) of mystery, wants you to find it. You might discover a new hobby, career path or sea ani-mal. You’re normally pretty level headed and like to think before you act, but around the 16th your energy will temporarily shift, lib-erating you just enough to walk a little on the wilder side of your personality, step out of your comfort zone and go exploring. Be careful when flying over the Adriatic Sea on the 20th and the 28th. Also you will be chased by clowns in all your dreams.

Libra, the Scale: September 23- October 22

Careful, Libra, your temper is showing! You’ve been locked in a battle of common sense with near-ly everyone it seems, and you have (understandably) had enough. It’s time to go off-grid and relax. Take some deep breaths. Go some-

anges. You will also make friends with a lovely dog this month. Good for you!

where and reconnect with nature. Mother moon has been missing you dearly, so she’s been calling you to come as close to her as you can possibly get. Follow your in-stincts and get up high. Maybe take a hike up a mountain. The stars have told me there is a great wis-dom that awaits you somewhere up very high, higher than the tallest tree you are currently in sight of. I can’t reveal much, but I can tell you that wisdom will more than likely take the form of a singing duck.

and collect all the loose change. Put it in a jar. Give that jar a hug. It will bring you good fortune.

Aries, the Ram: March 21- April 19

It seems like things are finally starting to wind down around you, but you just can’t seem to level out, Aries. All the deep breaths in the world aren’t enough to ground you. For everyone else, May is feeling like month one of a great vacation, but for you it’s month one of running a three-month show. People will turn to you for guidance and wisdom this month, so make sure you are engaging in activities that actually matter to you. Don’t force yourself into any-thing, take your time and remem-ber who’s in charge here (you). Luckily all your influence com-bined with Saturn’s rotation this month will you give the ability of mind-control between the hours of 4:30 and 9 p.m. Just note that when I say “mind control” I mean you’ll have total control over your own mind, not other people’s. But that sort of mental focus can be more powerful than you think!

Pisces, the Fish: February 19- March 20

Your nerves are in bunches, aren’t they Pisces? For the first time in a long time you’ve been feeling like a goldfish in a box of Animal Crackers - an odd fish out. But never forget, you are a one-of-a-kind rainbow fish, not just any old trout. Now is the time for you to reinvent yourself. As you enter into the season of long, hot days and tons of sunshine, take a sec-ond to lounge by the pool and really decide who you want to be. Mercury’s rotation will in-spire you with the wisdom for any upcoming decisions. You’ll be bursting with energy! You’ll also be bursting with the cha-risma and spunk needed to be-come the perfect Roller Derby participant, and on the 21st, I foresee a great victory for you, but you’re your own boss, so do whatever you want.

Aquarius, the Water bearer:

January 20- February 18

Capricorn, the Goat: December 22- January 19

The Universe has been giving you a lot of mixed signals late-ly, and you could use some help sorting everything out. You’re not one to feel unsteady, so all the confusing signs pointed you this way in that in love, career and academic respects has left your head spinning. Fear not, for the planet of the confused and astounded, Uranus, has come to your rescue. Expect to see vi-olently obvious universal signs guiding you in uncertain times this month. Can’t decide where to eat tonight? Let a majestic beam of neon-blue light guide you there. Can’t pick out a mov-ie to watch on date night? Listen for the booming voice of the cos-mos to scream it into your ear. Honestly, the signs of heavenly guidance this month will be so blatantly obvious you could see them with your eyes closed.

Something doesn’t feel right, Aquar-ius, and once again your psychic abil-ities have not failed you. There is evil approaching, as this month you will be faced with your greatest enemy of all time, Aquarius. For centuries it has been foretold only amongst the most secret of cosmic societies that in this month, during 2016, you shall come face to face with this fearsome beast, you must be strong. Do not let it see your fear, and never let it believe you are weak. This will be the ultimate test of your strength, but if you remain fo-cused and believe in yourself, you can prevail. The only way to defeat this un-speakable evil will be to lure it using your charm, good looks and wit, to a volcano and then drop it in. The victo-ry will give you good luck for the rest of the summer, and you will also enjoy a scrumptious BBQ this month.

Nationally-recognized folk and blues artist Lucinda Wil-liams will perform tonight at The Lyric. The singer-songwriter has been putting out full-length projects since 1980, and now she will bring her legendary work to Ox-ford as a promo for her most recent album, “The Ghosts of Highway 20.”

Although folk and blues may be what Williams is best known for, her work often branches outside of these genres. Commonly catego-rized as either rock, country or soul, her catalog is nothing short of diverse.

“The Ghosts of Highway

20” continues to play off all these influences as Williams demonstrates an artistic prowess that’s been brewing for decades.

Over the many years that Williams has made music, she has been nominated for more than 15 GRAMMY awards, three of which she won in the categories of Best Coun-try Song, Best Contemporary Folk Album and Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. These awards are merely an addition to being named America’s Best Songwriter by Time Magazine in 2002.

Williams will take her talent to Oxford at 8 p.m. tomorrow. Ticket prices range from $40 to $75.

Elisha Jahnke allowed just five baserunners all game and Ash-ton Lampton came through with timely hitting to lead the Ole Miss softball team to a 3-1 win over Louisiana Tech Wednesday at the Lady Techsters Softball Complex.

Jahnke was nearly dominant all game long, giving up just two hits, one of which was a solo home run in the second. She is the sec-ond Ole Miss pitcher to reach 10 wins this season after improving to 10-6 in the circle. The Grand Junction, Colorado native struck out four Lady Techsters, walked two and at one point retired nine in a row midway through the con-test.

Lampton chipped in with two of the Rebels’ (37-17) seven hits, including all three RBI off a dou-ble and a triple. Elantra Cox went 2-for-3 from the leadoff spot with a double and run scored, while Hailey Lunderman, Miranda Strother and Sarah Van Schaik all added one hit each in the victory.

Ole Miss wasted no time get-ting on the board with a 2-run first inning, the 17th time this season plating runs in the open-ing frame. Cox got the offense go-ing with an infield leadoff single and Lunderman followed with her only hit of the game on a sin-gle through the left side. Lamp-ton then launched a high shot to left that bounced off the wall and scored both Cox and Lunderman, which put the Rebels up 2-0.

Louisiana Tech (27-18) re-sponded in its next half at the plate with a solo home run cut-ting the deficit to 2-1, but Ole Miss again had an answer in the third. Strother punched a 1-out single to right, before Lampton dropped a blooper just inside the right field line for the first triple of her career.

From there Jahnke used the early lead to her advantage, not allowing a hit from the home run in the second inning all the way until the leadoff batter in the sixth.

Louisiana Tech starter Bailey Allen was tagged with the loss after giving up three runs in her four frames in the circle.

On DeckOle Miss will host No. 9 Ten-

nessee for the regular season finale this weekend at the Ole Miss Softball Complex. The series opens at 6 p.m. Friday night and Saturday’s game is slated for a noon first pitch on SEC Network. The Rebels will honor their six se-niors Sunday in the final game at 1 p.m.

Bianco will be looking for a more extended outing from him this weekend. The rotation has been a question mark for Ole Miss at times this year, but Parkinson has filled the Saturday role nicely, and McArthur has the potential to be a difference maker for this team if he can be effective on Sundays.

Georgia has not yet announced who will pitch in game three.

At the plateBoth of these teams have had

their fair share of struggles at the plate this year. Georgia ranks in the bottom three in the SEC in total batting, whereas Ole Miss is ninth. Georgia is hitting just .250 as a team, which is second-to-last in the conference, only in front of Alabama. The Bulldogs have struggled to score runs this year, and it has cost them games.

Skyler Weber leads the Bulldogs in hits (62), and is second in team RBIs (24), and also leads the club with 78 total bases. Daniel Nich-

ols and L.J. Talley have five and six home runs, respectively, to lead Georgia in that department.

The Rebels have hit better as of late and now have five guys bat-ting .300 in the SEC. Henri Lar-tigue has carried a heavy load, and J.B. Woodman’s three-homerun explosion last weekend has also provided a spark to a lineup that struggled to start SEC play. Those two, along with Colby Bortles, can make the middle of the Ole Miss lineup tough to get through when they are hitting well.

AnalysisGeorgia, despite its struggles,

still has an RPI of 29, meaning that this can be another feather in Ole Miss’ NCAA tournament cap if it can add a couple more RPI top-30 wins. This is also a week-end that Ole Miss’ hosting chances could be hurt. Georgia is a tough team when they want to be, and a series loss would put the Rebels on less stable ground in that regard. Robert Tyler will be tough to solve on Friday, but I think Ole Miss takes two on the back end of the weekend.

With just three weeks remain-ing in the SEC regular season, Ole Miss travels to Athens this week-end for a three-game series with the Georgia Bulldogs. The Rebels are coming off their biggest SEC series win so far this year after tak-ing two of three from No. 9 LSU. It was a weekend in which Ole Miss answered a lot of criticism.

Ole Miss put itself in firm po-sition to host a regional with its win over the weekend, but will need a serviceable finish down the stretch to remain in that position. It will face a different challenge this week in Georgia, a team from which you really never know what you’re going to get. Georgia has a series win over No. 7 South Caro-lina, and took the opening game at Florida before dropping the final. The team was also swept by Texas A&M and Vanderbilt last week-end.

“We’ve gotta play well,” Bian-co said. “That’s what the game of baseball is all about, and why it’s so difficult. It’s not easy to play well every day and on the road against a very good team, a team that beat South Carolina just a few weeks ago at home. It’ll be a big challenge for us.”

Georgia has not found much consistency this year, but it does have one of the best Friday night starters in the SEC in Robert Ty-ler.

On the moundIt will be Tyler against Brady

Bramlett on Friday. Tyler was a freshman All-American in 2014, and after an injury-riddled 2015 season he has anchored the Bull-dog rotation.

“Tyler is terrific. He struggled a little bit at the beginning of the year, but seems to have gotten it going again,” Bianco said. “He’s a guy that’s going to throw the ball mid to upper 90s and yeah, you don’t see that every day.”

Tyler had a slow start to this year, and it shows in his 3-4 re-cord and 3.34 ERA, but is domi-nant when his command is there to compliment his upper 90s ve-locity.

Bramlett didn’t have his best outing last weekend against LSU, and did not factor in the decision in a 7-6 Ole Miss win. Aside from that and a start against South Car-olina, Bramlett has been effective at the top of the Rebels’ rotation, and is 6-2 this year and with an ERA of 2.61.

Sophomore left-hander David Parkinson might still be getting used to pitching in the SEC after

being moved into a starting role a month ago, but he has adapt-ed quickly. He earned a win in his first start against Arkansas, and allowed just one run in sev-en innings against Alabama the next week. Parkinson was on the wrong side of a complete game from LSU’s Alex Lange and suf-fered a loss last weekend.

Georgia will also send out a left-

hander on Saturday in Connor Jones. Jones is 5-4 in 10 starts this year for the Bulldogs with an ERA of 5.02.

Freshman James McArthur will get the ball on Sunday for Ole Miss. McArthur had a slow start to the year and was held back a bit by a foot injury to begin the year. But the freshman right-hander has been a difference maker for Ole

Miss in the last six weeks. He’s 5-0 in midweek games this year, and has allowed just one earned run in his last 26.1 innings pitched. This stretch resulted in an opportunity on the weekend for McArthur and he made his first SEC start last weekend against LSU. McArthur pitched 3.1 scoreless innings, and
