A search committee for the next dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs held seven meetings to gather input from stakeholders about how the next dean should lead the school.
Maxwell dean search committee seeks input
By Alexa Torrensnews editor
The Maxwell community has a few ideas about what a new dean should bring to the table — among
them are diversity, communication, transparency and the cultivation of a stronger culture within the school.
From faculty requests to increased financial transparency within the Max-
well School of Citizenship and Public Affairs to student requests to diversify Maxwell’s “monochromatic” faculty and staff to better reflect its student body, Maxwell stakeholders were vocal about what they want during at least five of the seven town hall meetings held by a search committee for a new dean.
The search committee, led by David Van Slyke, associate dean and chair of Syr-acuse University’s Department of Public
Administration and International Affairs, held the meetings — two for Maxwell graduate and undergraduate students, two for Maxwell faculty, two for Maxwell staff and one for the SU community as a whole — on Thursday and Friday.
Following the conclusion of the town hall meetings on Friday, Van Slyke said the search committee met to discuss the feedback from those who attended. He

ON THE COMMITTEE
WHO IS JAMES STEINBERG? REACHING OUT
David Van Slyke, associate dean and chair of the Department of Public Administration and Interna-tional Affairs at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, is the leader of the Maxwell School dean search committee.
The search committee for the next dean conducted the seven town hall meetings in Eggers Hall. The committee has 15 members, including its chairman, David Van Slyke.
Since James Steinberg left the state department to become the dean of the Maxwell School in 2011, the school — one of the universitys most prestigious — has raised about $27 million and has added a new major, among other highlights.
James Steinberg is the dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. Previous to his dean-ship at the Maxwell School, Steinberg was the deputy secretary of state, serving as the principal deputy to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Members of the Maxwell and SU community who were not able to attend town hall meetings can participate in the search for a new dean by taking a survey on the Maxwell School website or by emailing [email protected].

The co-creator of the Twitter hashtag and social movement Black Lives Matter will speak in Hen-dricks Chapel next month, Syra-cuse University has announced.
Alicia Garza will be the com-memorative speaker for the Office of Multicultural Affairs’ month-long event series in honor of Black
History Month, according to an SU News release. Garza will speak on Feb. 23 at 7 p.m., according to the release.
Garza took to Facebook in 2013 after George Zimmerman, a Florida neighborhood watch volunteer, was acquitted that same year of murder in the shoot-ing death of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, in 2012. Garza’s post that day included
a message to black people “that black lives matter,” according to USA TODAY.
Then, Garza’s friend and anoth-er co-creator, Patrisse Cullors, turned it into a hashtag — #Black-LivesMatter — igniting an activist movement that continues today. The movement is “a call to action and a response to the virulent anti-Black racism that permeates our society,” according to the Black
Lives Matter website. In addition to leading the Black
Lives Matter movement, Garza is also currently the special projects director for the National Domes-
tic Workers Alliance, which fights for labor protections for domestic workers such as nannies, house-keepers and caregivers, according to its website.
Garza also formerly served as the executive director of People Organized to Win Employment Rights (POWER), according to the SU News release. That orga-nization fights for the rights

When the NCAA sanctions came down against Syracuse Universi-ty’s men’s basketball team, Kenny Lacy decided there was no better time to show his loyalty — so he decided to get a tattoo.
While he had originally hoped to get the tattoo when SU won a national championship, he went for it earlier than anticipated and had the Syracuse logo tattooed on his right shoulder over Spring Break 2015.
The tattoo was done at local Utica tattoo shop, Eternal Images, and depicts the classic Syracuse “S.” It’s just like the one printed on the middle of the court in the Carrier Dome or found on a t-shirt at the SU bookstore.
The bright orange “S” is out-lined in a bold navy blue and it stands out, taking up most of Lacy’s shoulder. Written above the “S” in a smaller font and curved fashion is the word “Syracuse.”
Lacy’s love of SU basketball didn’t just start when he arrived at the uni-versity. Growing up only an hour
away from SU in Utica, New York, Lacy, the junior African American studies major said that his family has always supported SU.
“My first memory of the team was sneaking to stay up late to watch the team win the national championship when I was in sec-ond grade,” Lacy said. “Ever since, I’ve just always been in love with the team.”
Lacy hasn’t missed watching a Syracuse University men’s basket-ball game — whether in person or on TV for games that were too far away — since 2008, he said. Now that he’s at SU, he’s attended every single home game in person.
Lacy said that if Syracuse ever won a national championship, he would add a tattoo of the year that the team won the title, reflecting the inspiration for his original tattoo. While that dream may not happen-this year, Lacy is still happy to see Jim Boeheim returning to the court as head coach.
Said Lacy: “I have faith that the team will make the NCAA Tourna-ment and get to at least the Round of 32.”

Sportswriter Bob Ryan has two keys to success, he told Syracuse University students Monday: fair-ness and sports expertise.
Ryan, who retired from The Boston Globe in 2012 after 44 years as a sportswriter, shared his illustrious career on Monday with the audience at the I-3 Center inside the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. Ryan also described his unusually straightforward path to sports journalism fame.
“Do your homework,” he said about becoming thorough with sports history. “Treat it like an academic discipline.”
Ryan knew when it was time to retire from his job at The Boston Globe. He said he was glad he was able to keep his relationship with local television and ESPN.
Ryan continues to write a few times per month for The Boston Globe in his retirement. He often plays a role on ESPN’s “Around the Horn,” serves as a regular guest on “The Sports Reporters”
and sometimes guest hosts “Par-don the Interruption” with Tony Kornheiser or Michael Wilbon.
The National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association selected Ryan into the Sports-writer Hall of Fame in 2011. He acknowledged the organization
for bringing him together with great names within the industry.
Forging a path toward the lime-light from a young age, Ryan said he would regularly attend Fri-day night high school basketball games and would read the morn-ing newspaper the following day.
“Most 7-year-olds aren’t like this,” he said, admitting he was “programmed” to find a place for himself in the profession.
After dabbling in both writing and broadcasting, he found his forte. He worked stints on televi-sion, but he said he enjoyed the independent nature of the news-paper industry, where he could cover a game and write the story in the comfort of his home.
“But I am a writer, and that is what I want to be known as,” read one of his well-known quotes featured on posters advertising the event.
“Bob Ryan is the best basket-
ball writer of all time,” said Drew Carter, a freshman broadcast and digital journalism student who is also a contributing writer for The Daily Orange.
Growing up within a gen-eration that rarely reads game recaps, Carter said he recognized there is something different about Ryan’s writing ability that catches his attention.
“I got to meet one of my writ-ing heroes, and I learned a ton about the industry,” said Carter, who was “so happy” he decided to attend.
Growing up in the Boston area, Ryan attended Boston College after being rejected from Yale University and Williams College, he said. At Boston College, he assisted in the Sports Informa-tion Department by writing player profiles for the basketball team.

Cuomo sets protections for transgender people
Sportswriter reflects on career experience
By Sara Swannasst. news editor
New York state Gov. Andrew Cuomo has announced new regulations that ban employers — including Syracuse University — from discriminating and harass-ing transgender people.
Cuomo became the first execu-tive in the United States to issue statewide regulations prohibiting
harassment and discrimination on the basis of gender identity, transgender status or gender dys-phoria, according to a release from Cuomo’s office.
The governor’s most recent announcement — made on Jan. 20 — upholds that transgender individuals are protected under New York state’s Human Rights Law, according to the release.
All public and private employ-
ers, housing providers, business-es, creditors and others should know that discrimination against
transgender people is “unlawful and will not be tolerated any-where in the state of New York,” according to the release.
“Today we are sending the message loud and clear that New York will not stand for discrimination against transgender people,” Cuomo said in the release. “It is intolerable to allow harassment or discrimination against anyone,

A Syracuse University student was the victim of an armed robbery on Monday around 5:40 p.m. in the 100 block of Remington Avenue, police said.
The student was approached by four preteen or teenage males and was tackled to the ground, accord-ing to an email sent by the Depart-ment of Public Safety on Monday night. The suspects then stole $23 from the student’s pockets and fled on foot in a northwest direction on Remington Avenue, away from the SU campus, according to the email.
The student received minor cuts to his elbow and forehead, according to the email. One of the male suspects had been holding what appeared to be a black handgun, according to the email. The gun was pointed down toward the ground during the rob-bery, according to the email.
The four male suspects wore dark clothing, according to the email. No further description was provided.

Cuomo’s prison reform proposal reflects Republican values
Surprisingly, Gov. Andrew Cuomo is leading New York state down the right path when it comes to prison
reform and education, but Democrats shouldn’t get all the credit. Earlier this month Cuomo pledged an initiative to close down more state prisons and improve the education system for inmates. As institutions, United States prisons are in desperate need of help, and while politicians on both sides of the aisle feel similarly when it comes to America’s mass incarceration rates, it is important to acknowledge that strong Republicans have blazed the trail. Prominent figures including Newt Gin-grich, Rick Perry, and presidential hopeful Jeb Bush have supported the Right on Crime cam-paign against out-of-control incarceration. The Right on Crime campaign is similar to Cuomo’s initiative, just a little more in-depth when it comes areas including overcriminal-ization, juvenile justice and substance abuse. The Vera Institute of Justice reported in 2012 that the U.S. spent a massive $39 bil-lion in taxpayer money on prisons. In New York state alone, the average cost per inmate paid by taxpayers was more than $60,000, according to fiscal year 2010 data collected by the Vera Institute. But U.S. citizens don’t just pay to keep dangerous criminals off the street, they pay for every type of felon — an important fact Cuomo has acknowledged. Cuomo is working to pardon 10,000 people who were nonviolent offenders in their youth if they maintained a clean record for 10 years, which is the perfect first
step toward relieving taxpayers and should pose as an example for a country that needs to function more efficiently. In this way New York should exemplify that a state can still be secure without hemorrhaging money that would be spent better in other areas. It’s important to note that there is nothing conservative about heavy taxation. While some imperative government ser-vices are funded through taxpayer dollars, the prison system is a black hole that sucks in a disproportionate amount due to mass incarceration tactics. Texas attorney, conservative and Right on Crime co-founder and policy director, Marc Levin, is touted as one of the first public figures to have acknowledged this problem and spearheaded a movement against wrong-ful incarceration and overfunded prisons. Levin realized that it didn’t make sense as conservatives to support an outdated system that was ravaging taxpayers’ pockets. Levin’s own state of Texas was about to spend $2 billion in 2007 on more prison beds before he intervened and proposed a much cheaper plan that created drug and mental health rehabilitation programs. According to Mother Jones, “Texas’ incar-ceration rate has fallen nearly 20 percent.” That was a turnaround much greater than the country average of 5 percent. While prison must still be an extremely
unpleasant place to be, inmates should be given access to educational resources. Many studies including the RAND Corporation report have shown that providing inmates with education opportunities betters their life prospects after prison in terms of employment and lowering the chances of getting locked up again. Shana Gadarian, an assistant political science professor in the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University, said, “Taxpayers pay when we have high recidivism rates.” As acknowledged by Gadarian, a criminal record makes it incredibly hard to get most jobs. However, moving to concentrate resourc-es on aiding nonviolent offenders to get back on their feet so that they can contribute to the economy rather than spend unproductive time in a cell will assist in closing this gap. The implementation of these programs under Cuomo goes further when it comes to strengthening the economy in a conserva-tive fashion: protecting the taxpayer with private funding. According to The New York Times, $7.5 million in funding for Cuomo’s new inmate
college program has come from Manhattan district attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. as well as other private investors, a move secured by working with Republicans. In this way, Cuomo’s move is impressive because it shows that he is willing to give the taxpayer a break. With the new plan, he is wisely looking to Wall Street instead of the people who are struggling to pay for their own bills and higher education costs, something he, unsuccessfully, tried out not long ago. The state of New York has finally come to its senses regarding prison reform. Now the United States needs to embrace the conserva-tive ideals that will aid inmates and ease taxpayer pain — a hopeful future, considering this issue has become increasingly bipartisan. But conservatives have a key role to play in forging ahead to uphold this progress and retain these values moving forward. They have set a standard for liberal politicians such as Cuomo, something that deserves more credit in Washington.

The ongoing search for a new dean for the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs should serve as a model for the rest of Syracuse University as several institutions on campus, including the College of Visual and Performing Arts and Hen-dricks Chapel, move to secure their future leadership. Over the course of the past week, the Maxwell dean search committee hosted a series of seven town hall meetings, each specifically geared toward concentrating on the opinions of different factions within the Maxwell School, including Max-well graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, staff and the greater SU community. The search is a result of Maxwell Dean James Steinberg’s Sept. 1 announcement that he will be stepping down at the end of this academic year to become a University Professor at Maxwell. Prior to his position at Maxwell, Steinberg served as deputy secre-tary of state to former Secretary of State and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton from 2009 until his resignation in 2011. The search committee’s emphasis on balance, open dialogue and its willingness to identify and provide a construc-tive outlet for the primary stake-holders in the ultimate decision should be reciprocated by other university bodies on campus. Creating these opportunities for students, staff and faculty upholds strong communication among the community and helps contribute relevant viewpoints in the pursuit of a candidate that is best suited for the school in question. These forums found that while Maxwell students appear to be more concerned about the rising dean being able to cultivate
a stronger culture within the school, faculty and staff placed more emphasis on the lack of financial transparency within Maxwell and a desire to have the new dean come from a background that is not based in politics or law. Like other university-hosted dialogue spaces on campus, these sessions provide the infra-structure needed to generate a rounded perspective from those who engage most with the school on a day-to-day basis. Reaching out to members of the specific school’s community, making these options available to its members and maintaining this democratic form of discussion is an important value for any aspect of campus working to solidify new leadership. During the different town halls, various community mem-bers expressed concern with Steinberg’s tenure as dean and brought up traits they wish to see in a new dean. While these senti-ments should be taken with a grain of salt, considering Steinberg has upheld the school’s prestige, raised nearly $27 million in donations for the school and established the Center for Qualitative and Multi-Method Inquiry and the Aging Studies Institute, these details cited by the community should contribute to a more pointed search for a new dean. Each factor should be taken into consideration as the uni-versity approaches selecting and hiring a candidate. But as a univer-sity-wide goal of actively seeking out the community’s thoughts, concerns and suggestions, the Maxwell search committee has set a standard at a time when influen-tial leadership decisions are being made that will guide the future of SU and its respective institutions for years to come.

NY boldly takes on faulty food labels
In an age where locavores run rampant, juice cleanses are trendy and Whole Foods
seems to be the bourgeois super-market of choice, “all natural,” “pesticide-free” and “hormone-free” labels are more prevalent in pantries than ever before. But what you see is not what you get. The term “all natural” has no legal definition. That’s right — the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, a federal agency with immense authority over food label regulation, has nothing more than a vague guideline for what constitutes a natural product: one in which noth-ing has been included in, or added to, “a food that would not normally be expected to be in that food,” as defined by the FDA website. New York state Gov. Andrew Cuomo, however, brought this little known issue to the forefront in his State of the State address earlier this month when he proposed new goals to define and regulate terms like “natural” and “pesticide-free” on food labels. It will be voluntary — at least at first — and farmers who participate will be given a “New York Certified High Quality” seal of approval. This push for transparency by New York state should set a prec-edent for every state government. The people deserve to know what’s going into their bodies, a right that is long overdue in the face of a generation with a growing concern for healthy living. One in four millennials are already parents, and according to a study by research group Produce for Better Health, are likely to place local produce at the center of their kids’ diet. Cuomo is tapping into a value that millennials hold to ensure a clarity and culture for ourselves and future generations of healthy eaters. But, in recent years, the FDA has been reluctant to address the
controversy regarding the word “natural” on labels. In a 2014 let-ter, the agency explicitly explained that they chose not to define the buzzword because they have not been able to prioritize the issue.
The FDA’s lack of involve-ment has led to approximately 50 private lawsuits filed against companies for their misleading labels between 2004 and 2014, as estimated by Stephen Gardner of the Center for Science in the Public Interest. When Cuomo decides to define the term “natural,” however, he will be having the final say on a philosophical discussion. Essen-tially, all food we eat is not in its innate form, so who’s to say when the modification becomes too much to deem it natural? It might be in the best interest of consum-ers to do away with such a term, and stick with more specific ones: “GMO-free,” “pesticide-free,” “hormone-free.” The U.S. expects its citizens to make the best choices for them-selves. But if a citizen’s literacy of food labels is their way of making the best choice for him or herself, and they can’t trust what’s put before them, then they are lost, with nowhere to turn. For Cuomo’s initiative to gain
traction, it needs the participa-tion of farmers and New York food producers. The proposal requests a budget of $2 million to be approved by the legislature, which has yet to be drafted, according to the governor’s spokesman. By making New York a leader in this fight for transpar-ency, the governor will be setting the standard for other states and the nation as a whole. With that, he needs to tread carefully. The mainstay of opposition stems from the opinion that gov-ernment should not interfere with business. Yet keeping citizens safe requires particularly stringent and standardized regulation, so the government should not shy away from guiding people through the rubble of misleading claims. The insufficient and long overdue attention that this murky problem warrants has long passed the threshold for businesses to handle on their own. When it comes to health, safety and belief, it is the job of the government to protect its citizens in a way that businesses cannot. In the meantime, businesses can take responsibility and assess their ethics when it comes to marketing “natural” products. The power struggle between the U.S. Congress and the FDA to act on this issue has created stag-nancy, as any legislation passed in Congress may undermine the actions of the FDA when they choose to define the term. Thus, state leaders are forced to take the matter into their own hands. Very few have, but Cuomo is making an effort that will mark New York state as a pioneer in this new realm of regulation.

New York state launches student clean air competition
added that the feedback is the “kind of stuff that really helps the committee in terms of understanding the student, fac-ulty and staff’s preferences for the next dean candidate.”
The search is a result of Maxwell Dean James Steinberg’s Sept. 1 announcement that he will be stepping down at the end of the 2015-16 academic year to become a university professor at Maxwell.
Two consultants from Spencer Stuart, the Chicago-based executive search and leadership consulting firm that is assisting the university in the search for a new dean, led the town hall meetings.
Chuck Jordan and Michele Haertel of Spencer Stuart asked direct questions to the audiences of Maxwell stakeholders.
While Maxwell students tended to be more concerned about the new dean being able to cultivate a stronger culture within the school, faculty and staff were more vocal about a lack of financial transpar-ency within Maxwell and a desire to have the new dean come from a background that is not based in politics or law.
Prior to his position as Maxwell dean, Steinberg — a Class of 1978 alumnus of Yale Law School — served as deputy secre-tary of state to former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton from 2009 until his resignation in 2011.
Steinberg left that position to take the position of dean at Maxwell.
One staff member at Friday’s 9 a.m. staff town hall meeting suggested finding “some-one who is an actual academic and has taught, but has also had administrative experience.”
“Preferably not a lawyer,” the staff member added, getting laughs from other members of the Maxwell community.
While many faculty members stressed the importance of a dean who has a strong academic background, one staff member at the 9 a.m. meeting said the staff wants a dean who can manage and lead — someone who is not a “straight-up academic.”
In regard to financial transparency, faculty members at the 10:30 a.m. Friday meeting lamented Maxwell putting money into institutions in Washington, D.C.
Another faculty member at the meeting said the dean’s office has not demonstrated adequate management practice or expertise to “understand the machine.”
The faculty member said Maxwell has suffered over the last 10 years in this eco-nomic perspective.
But both the students and the faculty and staff in Maxwell expressed concerns
about the new dean’s ability to communi-cate effectively from the top down.
“I’ve gotten 100 percent more emails from (Chancellor Kent Syverud) than I have from (Steinberg),” said one staff member.
Students also asked for an “accessible, interactive administration” to come along with the new deanship.
When asked what students would like to see different in the Maxwell School at the end of the dean’s first five-year term, one student said they would like more access to the dean — to “see his or her face in the hall, have a relationship with him or her.”
Maxwell students also had other ideas about what the new dean should bring to the table, including the prioritization of fun-draising, the retention of “attractive” fac-ulty members, further integration between Maxwell and the Syracuse community and a more affordable education at the school.
When a new dean will be appointed is not yet known. Van Slyke said the “most
pressing challenge” for the search com-mittee is the timeline of the search, since Steinberg is stepping down at the end of the academic year.
Van Slyke said the committee’s goal is to have off-campus “airport interviews” at the end of the first week in April, and to bring three to four finalists to the SU campus at the end of April or the beginning of May.
If the next dean is not appointed in time for the next academic year, Van Slyke said there is a possibility that there will be an interim dean, but added that the decision is ultimately that of Syverud and the to-be-determined vice chancellor and provost.
The new provost will be heavily involved in the decision-making process for a new dean, Van Slyke said, adding that Syverud will have the provost be inte-grated into meeting with the finalists for the dean position.
There’s so many challenges in higher education right now. Having someone who understands those challenges and the public policy side of things, and not just one or the other, will probably be useful in the longterm.maxwell staff member

A competition launched by New York state Gov. Andrew Cuomo allowing student groups from colleges and universities in the state to construct plans for clean energy programs has begun accepting applications.
The “Energy to Lead Competition,” launched last week by Cuomo, is part of the governor’s “Reforming the Energy Vision,” a plan that seeks to build “a clean, resilient and affordable energy system for all New Yorkers,” according to a release from Cuomo’s office.
The plan aims to engage “energy leaders of the future” in order for New York state to achieve the goal it has set to decrease green-house gas emissions by 40 percent, generat-
ing 50 percent of electricity from renewable energy resources and reducing the energy consumption of buildings by 23 percent by 2030, according to the release.
The competition is accepting project proposals from “student-led coalitions” that describe how the project would reduce greenhouse gas emissions on campus and in local communities, according to the release.
“This competition will engage our future leaders today in this fight against climate change,” Cuomo said in the release.
The winning group will receive $1 million to go toward the project, according to the release, and proposals must include how that award would be used to advance the project.
The proposals must also “demonstrate innovation” in project design, business model, partnerships and/or curriculum integration, according to the release.
The competition is being administered by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and is open to students from both two- and four-year colleges or universities in the state, according to the release.
Proposals must feature at least one
undergraduate or graduate student but can also include other community members.
Proposals must be submitted by a faculty or staff member from the student’s institu-tion, according to the release.
Applications, which can be found on NYSERDA’s website, are due on April 4 at 5 p.m., according to the release.
The competition is related to Cuomo’s Thursday announcement that the New York State Public Service Commission approved a 10-year, $5 billion Clean Energy Fund to — starting this year — promote the growth of the clean energy economy in New York state, address climate change, improve resiliency during extreme weather and decrease ener-gy bills for New Yorkers.

While at POWER, based in San Francis-co, Garza organized a response to constant police violence in black neighborhoods, according to the SU News release.
Garza’s visit won’t be the first time the movement has been felt on SU’s campus.
In October of last year, Sybrina Fulton and Lesley McSpadden, the mothers of Tray-von Martin and Michael Brown, respective-ly, were among panelists at the (In)Justice For All event — where the Black Lives Matter movement was discussed at length — in SU’s Goldstein Auditorium.
In November of last year, during Vice
President Joe Biden’s speech regarding sexual assault on college campuses, about 100 SU community members rallied to show solidarity with racial justice protesters at the University of Missouri.
Before that, in April, community members rallied to show solidarity with Baltimore pro-testers in response to the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who suffered fatal injuries while in police custody that month.
In December 2014, about 120 members of the community marched around the SU campus in solidarity with the city of Fer-guson, Missouri, and in honor of Brown, an unarmed black teenager who was shot and killed in August 2014 by Darren Wilson, a white police officer.
When Garza visits, her speech will be free and open to the public, according to the SU News release.

Somethingin the waterBy Caroline Bartholomewstaff writer
The people of Flint, Michigan, have been experiencing contamination problems with their water supply
for almost a year after the supply line was switched from Lake Huron to the Flint River as a cost-saving measure, according to an article by CNN.
The city switched back to the Lake Huron water supply in October 2015, according to CNN, but the damage had already been done to the lead pipes.
Protesters in Flint were upset their com-plaints weren’t being heard or taken seriously by the state government after the contami-nated water severely affected the health of residents in the area, according to CNN.
The Daily Orange interviewed Sharon Moran, associate professor of environmen-tal studies at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry; Sarah Pralle, associate professor of political science at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University and senior research assistant at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute; and Henry Lambright, professor of public administration, international affairs and political science at the Maxwell School.The Daily Orange: How do you think the situation has been handled? Sharon Moran: There are lots of places in
the system where the people in charge could’ve and should’ve acted differently because of their responsibilities as civil ser-vants and scientists. Sarah Pralle: I think up to this point it’s been handled poorly, and the reason it’s being handled at all is because of the national media attention … From what I’ve read, local and state officials who had receiv-ership over Flint did a very poor job of trying to handle the complaints of local residents and didn’t take them seriously and could have intervened sooner, but by delaying, they have compounded the problem and the economic cost too. Henry Lambright: Somewhere between a mess and a disgrace … the disgrace lies in the failure of the government doing what they’re supposed to do, which is to take care of the people. The D.O.: Do you think Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder should resign?S.P.: I do think it’s important to hold offi-cials accountable because perhaps it would deter this kind of inaction or neglect in the future, so I’m not opposed to it. It would be sending a strong signal to other officials that we have to maintain infrastructure in order to provide citizens with basic goods and services, and clean water is certainly at the top of that list. H.L.: Gaining back the trust of the people will be almost impossible until all of the key players are gone, especially the
governor. The trust is broken, so you have to get entirely new players in the system who are not tied to the decisions from previous officials. The D.O.: How does something like this happen when there are systems in place?S.M.: There’s more than enough blame to go around. If the system was working the way it should, this wouldn’t have happened … it’s maddening and disappointing. It’s coming out that several professionals intentionally misled people. They minimized dangers — when their job was actually to communicate them, rationally and objectively. Running a city’s water system is complex and a huge responsibility, and many of us don’t even think about what goes into get-ting our clean water. But the reality is that infrastructure is important, even if it’s not super exciting. Politicians are always involved in the opening of things, but keep-ing old and complicated things working is a thankless job.The D.O.: What steps can be taken to try to mend the situation?S.M.: From what I’ve read, there’s already minimal trust in local government in Flint, and maybe they can make changes to restore that — new elected officials, new positions, citizen review boards. People will need to be involved, to help ensure it’s done effectively. The future requires apol-ogy, explanation and remediation. People need to have transparency and immediate action. Good policies are essential. So is good implementation. People have to be able to see that both of those things are in place, and working correctly.H.L.: I think there’s a larger question that needs to be addressed wholly aside from Flint, because the real question is: how many Flints are there? I think there’s the immediate Flint situation, and then there’s
the larger problem of what Flint represents. Flint is a symptom of a national problem that needs a national solution. The federal government needs to work on these prob-lems of infrastructure, even after the media and politicians move on. The D.O.: What environmental effects will this have on Flint?S.M.: The future will demand lots of moni-toring to make sure the bad things we know about aren’t happening. And to check and make sure that new-and-different bad things aren’t developing. There could be weird sec-ondary effects within the system too — like in D.C. some years ago, even after lead pipe removal, they noticed levels hadn’t dropped and discovered that other household pipes (made of galvanized steel) can take up lead from the water. The consequences of short-sighted and deceitful actions will be felt by many people for a long time.The D.O.: Hillary Clinton brought up the fact that this might’ve been handled differently, had the city been of different demographics. What is your opinion on this thought?S.P.: That’s a fair critique. Clearly if this had taken place in a white and more affluent neighborhood, then complaints would’ve been heard a lot sooner and actions would’ve been taken. We tend to neglect the most vulnerable populations because of their lack of political power.H.L.: I think that’s definitely true. You had a city that no one was paying attention to, a Democrat city in a state with a Republican government. It was also black and poor and it was not part of their constituency, so you had a gap between the city and the state government. Had the complaints come from a mostly white city, I think it may have been handled a lot better and sooner.

BIRD information office at Boston College, Ryan secured an internship with The Boston Globe. He then went on active duty in the military, he said, but received a verbal promise from The Boston Globe for the next job opening.
When he returned from serving overseas and started working at The Boston Globe, he said he missed his first writing deadline because he was overconfident. He warned students in attendance to concentrate on their goals.
Ryan boasted great pride working for a single company for 44 years. He said no other writer has accomplished that feat.
When asked about a declining industry, Ryan said journalism is “still a very, very fun way to make a living.”
Ryan credited reading as a main propo-nent of his endeavors, saying if you don’t love reading as a journalist, then you’re in the wrong business.
Before his retirement, Ryan had the oppor-tunity to cover championships in all four pri-mary professional sports — football, basketball, hockey and baseball — according to his farewell article in The Boston Globe on Aug. 12, 2012.
The crux of Ryan’s hall of fame career included the coverage of 29 NCAA Final Fours and 11 Olympic Games.
“I cannot tell you how to get a job,” Ryan said, but “be ready when the oppor-tunity comes.”

cuomoand the transgender community has been subjected to a second-class status for far too long. This is an issue of basic justice and I am proud that New York is continuing to lead the way forward.”
New York state was the first in the U.S. to enact an anti-discrimination Human Rights Law, according to the release. The law, which was enacted in 1945, affords every citizen “an equal opportunity to enjoy a full and produc-tive life,” according to the release.
People who feel they have been harassed or discriminated against can file complaints in state court or with the New York State Division of Human Rights without charge, according to the release. Those complaints are then investigated at regional offices throughout the state.
Under New York state law, the Division of Human Rights has the authority to spread regulations interpreting the Human Rights Law, according to the release.
These regulations confirm that the Divi-sion of Human Rights will accept and pro-cess Human Rights Law complaints alleging discrimination because of gender identity — on the basis of the protected categories of both sex and disability — and provide impor-tant information to all New Yorkers regard-ing unlawful discrimination against trans-gender people, according to the release.
If the Division of Human Rights deter-mines probable cause for harassment or dis-crimination, the Commissioner of Human Rights will decide the case after a public hearing and may award employment, hous-ing or other benefits; back and front pay; compensatory damages for mental anguish; and civil fines and penalties, according to the release. The commissioner may also require policy changes and training as appropriate.
Civil fines and penalties can be up to $50,000 or up to $100,000 if the discrimi-nation is found to be “willful, wanton or malicious,” according to the release. Unlike under federal law, compensatory damages to individuals are not capped.

Group elects officials, gives updates on projectsBy Nina Leedsstaff writer
At the first Syracuse University Student Association meeting of the semester, SA President Aysha Seedat said she received official support from the State University of New York Student Assembly (SUNY SA), the official student government of the entire SUNY system, to bring Uber to upstate New York.
Seedat said she has also been in con-tact with Uber and she is planning to go to Albany to lobby on behalf of the ride-sharing service in the upcoming months.
SA also has many initiatives planned for the upcoming semester, including the second annual Cuse Conference, which will bring together student groups and administrators to address a variety of problems on campus.
Seedat said SA is also planning a Mental Health Awareness Campaign and Impact Week and is assisting in continuing a conversation with the Chancellor’s Work-group on Diversity and Inclusion.
SA members said they plan to allocate nearly $70,000 for special programs this year.
SA members also gave updates about the heat lamps the organization helped to imple-ment on campus bus stops. The bus lamps were approved last year to help students who rely on campus buses stay warmer as they wait for their buses. The bus lamps are up and
running, and SA reported that it has received a lot of positive feedback so far and is still looking for more feedback to see if there are any ways to improve the heat lamp program.
SA is also initiating Orange SUccess. The program plans to improve advising and stu-dent success on campus through a program that better connects students with their advisers and professors. Orange SUccess will be piloting this semester in the Martin J. Whitman School of Management, the College of Arts and Sciences and University College.
Seedat said over Winter Break there was more work done on choosing a vice chancellor and provost for the university. Seedat, who is on the search committee for the provost, said the new provost will be announced in February.
SA members also discussed the exten-sion of operation hours for the Student Life Slocum Café, which will now be open until 5:30 p.m. on Fridays, and the promotion of Chat and Dine, a program that allows stu-dents to have lunch with any faculty and staff member. The program is designed to increase networking and learning outside the classroom.
Additionally, SA elected Domenica Vera as the speaker of the assembly, Mat-thew VanDemark as parliamentarian and Nicole Sherwood as external public rela-tions chair for the spring 2016 semester.

Ron Giegerich walked in his backyard toward his man-made pond to check on some de-fleshed bones. As they passed by a graveyard
with six little marked stones, Giegerich mentally hon-ored his beloved dogs, but continued onward.
Out near the pond, Giegerich looked at the speci-mens. These were not past pets, but marine mammals’ skeletons being cleaned in the pond. Other specimens’ bones were taken care of by carrion beetles and blow fly larvae. After about six to seven weeks of natural cleaning, these nine marine mammals were ready to come back to the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry.
As the collections manager for the Roosevelt Wild Life Collections at SUNY-ESF, it’s Giegerich’s job to prepare specimens for display as well as teaching a course in vertebrate museum techniques every spring semester. He curates and manages vertebrates in addition to the specimen preparation. In simpler terms, he prepares, manages and handles taxidermy.
He learned taxidermy in high school and continued crafting his practice in college. From there, he worked for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the Division of Mammals at the Smithsonian Institution from 1976 to 1977. Ron has since been dedicated to working at SUNY-ESF, where he said he truly enjoys working with students and preparing specimens.

If you’ve opened an issue of Vogue Magazine in the past 28 years, you have observed the talent of Grace Cod-
dington, Vogue’s creative director and the woman behind the captivating editorials that make up the magazine. Now, at age 74, Coddington is stepping down from her esteemed position.
Since her start as fashion director in 1988, Coddington has become known for her romantic, dreamy fashion spreads that ref-erence art and culture. Her whimsical style gave the magazine the aspirational image it has today. As Editor-In-Chief Anna Win-tour’s go-to, Coddington is well respected within Vogue and the rest of the industry, which might be why the fashion world went into a frenzy when she decided to scale back her position at Vogue last Wednesday.
Although her age might beg you to think otherwise, Coddington is not going into retirement just yet. She is keeping ties with Vogue as creative director-at-large, which is a way to scale back her work with the maga-
zine while still keeping a role there. And just because she is working less at Vogue doesn’t mean she is working less overall. She is beginning several new projects, including a perfume and potentially an animated film, and she is now being represented by creative agency Great Bowery.
While Coddington’s exit from her posi-tion will be a big change at Vogue, it is reflec-tive of other shuffling that has been occur-ring within the fashion industry recently. Within the past few months, there have been several fashion labels that switched up their own creative directors. The former creative director of Dior, Raf Simons, left the label in October and has yet to be replaced. In the same week, Alber Elbaz was removed from his position of creative director of Lanvin. With so much shifting
occurring within prominent fashion labels, it might be time for the ultimate fashion bible to do some changing of its own.
There is no question as to whether Cod-dington’s work at Vogue will be missed. She is considered an icon for all she has accomplished for the magazine. However, there may be some good to come from her departure. The fashion industry thrives on newness, but relies on the tendency to make something old seem new. With one person in the same position for so long, it can be hard to incorporate new perspec-tives into the product.
While it is unclear whether Vogue will hire someone new as a creative direc-tor now, Coddington’s exit opens up the potential for some reevaluation and new directions. Although someone with ample experience will likely fill the role, everyone can move upward to leave new spaces in the lower positions. It is important to have people of all generations on staff; otherwise, the top editors will trickle out with no one
with enough experience to pick up where they left off.
That in itself is another question that Coddington leaves: without her full-time expertise, will the magazine pick up where it left off with her, or will it pursue a new vision? A creative director has an incredible amount of influence; the look of the magazine and all its pages dictates its audience, quality and sales. Coddington had a particular style, which became Vogue’s style after her decades of leading it. If the magazine wants to keep up the image it has now, it will need to find some-one who is able to emulate the grace and whim that Coddington spread throughout the pages.
Vogue is a critical part of the fashion industry, and Coddington is a critical part of Vogue’s history. Now, it is up to the staff and the future staff to take what she has done and make it new again.
Jackie Homan is a sophomore magazine journalism major. You can email her at
[email protected] or follow her @jackie_homan on Twitter.
Elyse Iemola, a senior wildlife science major, took his class last year and said she highly recommends that students take it.
“ESF is really cool in that it has a lot of people that are very good at one thing,” Iemo-la said. “But Ron is really good at everything.”
He’s been busy this past year, cleaning and preparing a total of 15 marine mam-mals for the collection. He’s never prepared marine mammals before this, but with 39 years of taxidermy work under his belt at SUNY-ESF, Giegerich was ready to take on the challenge.
He cleaned the first five specimens in the preparation room in SUNY-ESF’s Illick Hall until it started to smell, and then decided to use his land back home to finish the job.
Scott Turner, a biology professor and Giegerich’s next-door office neighbor, said Giegerich’s collection is especially impor-tant as specimens are often used in other professors’ demonstrations.
“It hasn’t always been supported to the extent that it should be,” Turner said. “He’s always been totally dedicated to this, no mat-ter what the level of financial support is.”
On a day-to-day basis, between specimen identification and preparation, Giegerich is like a normal higher education employee, checking emails and meeting with students, except students will often knock on his door holding a carcass.
With the number of specimens growing each year, the collections room in 215 Illick Hall proves to feel claustrophobic. The Roosevelt Wild Life Collections currently contains over 10,000 specimens of birds, mammals, freshwater and marine fishes, reptiles and amphibians.
What helps to keep the collection going is its large number of dead birds — many of
which come from flying into power lines or windows. If a specimen cannot be hunted under the protection of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, finding one dead can often add variety to the collection.
Drawers upon drawers slide open to reveal several different breeds of birds, with an entire drawer — or three — dedi-cated to just one species. Cabinets keep jarred oddities and smaller reptiles safe and stored away, while mounted birds stack on each other on the f loor of a hall in between more cabinets.
Giegerich hopes to have new museum space in the basement of the Gateway Center for everyone to access by 2017, despite the challenge of moving the entire collection to
a new space.Back home, Giegerich raises pheasants,
just as he used to as a child with his father. Joe Folta, a visiting instructor at SUNY-ESF, said Giegerich raises “all kinds of neat look-ing birds.” Folta was a student of Giegerich’s about 20 years ago, when Folta obtained his waterfowl identification certificate.
“It’s really helpful that when we come across something that we’re not exactly sure what species or subspecies — he’s the first to contact,” he said.
Iemola, the senior wildlife science major, said when she first met Giegerich, she franti-cally walked into his office so he could accept her into his class. Instead of asking her to
compose herself or to get out, Giegerich calmly asked her what her name was, and they quickly formed a bond.
In her time knowing Giegerich, Iemola said she never felt he was intimidating or arrogant.
“He knows he’s intelligent, but that abil-ity to shove it on you is just not there for him,” Iemola said.
His home life and work life often seam together in one flow, but perhaps with Gieg-erich’s up-bringing, it was always meant to be. As a child, he collected the occasional skull, feather, vertebrate and specimen odd-ity, but didn’t expect it to one day turn into museum work.
“What started as a hobby became a voca-tion,” he said.
But even the dirty work doesn’t bother him, because by the end of the day, his work is recorded in the SUNY-ESF Roosevelt Wild Life Collections for years to come.
“It leaves a legacy behind,” Giegerich said. “There’s a good chance that the specimens I prepared for the university will be around for 100 years, maybe even longer.”

Kendall, Karlie and Gigi, oh my! Looking to supermodels who strut the run-ways is an easy way to stay on top of fashion trends, even when it’s cold and snowy outside. Here are some simple pieces to channel some of fash-ion’s most trendsetting supermodel icons in the winter weather:
FROSTY FASHION
teddy bear fur and turtlenecksKendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid were recently spotted donning this cozy, harm-free fuzz. Trade in your favorite down or wool coat for this fashionable and surprisingly warm layer. Turtle-necks, whether attached to your favorite top or bodysuit might once have been considered a fashion faux pas reserved for cat ladies and bor-ing business-savvies. But now, this staple’s been spotted on everyone from my current favorite Karlie Kloss to fashion legend Kate Moss. Throw on your teddy coat with a matching turtleneck top or sweater, pants, shoes and accessories to channel the supermodel-chic cozy trend.
Coat: TopshopTop: Charlotte Russe
bomber jacket and aviatorsPretend to be hiding from paparazzi with a fashion-forward pair of regular or oversized aviators. As a college student, you might not be able to buy expensive pair of Tom Ford, Dior or Ray-Ban sunglasses, but luckily, many cheaper stores and brands are replicating the style. Another outerwear must-have for this season is a bomber jacket, recently spotted on Hailey Baldwin and the Hadid sisters. In order to brave Syracuse winters while still rocking this supermodel staple, a longline or coat-style bomber is your best bet. For some added comfort and warmth, throw on a pair of joggers and a thermal long-sleeved tee underneath.
Jacket: Forever 21Sunglasses: Nordstrom
thigh-high bootsThigh-high boots are the new shoe
of choice. Plenty of students on campus have already begun to take
part in this model off-duty trend. Thigh-highs are a great excuse to
break out your favorite leg-bearing skirt or dress, as they cover your
calves and add an extra layer over often unbearably chilly tights or
thigh-high socks. I recommend a neutral color like grey, black or dark
olive so that spending money on a pair is worth every penny — and
every outfit.
Boots: Steve Madden
Supermodel staples to warm up any outfit
sleek sneaks and leggings
Athleisure is one of the biggest trends right now, probably for its
practicality, comfort and conve-nience. It may be hard to get
your hands on a pair of Lulus, Adidas Superstars or Season
1 Yeezys, but it’s possible for anyone to channel this
supermodel-favorite look with items you probably already have in
your closet. Pair your favorite black leggings with some black, nude or white sneakers. Throw on a comfy tee, some mirrored sunnies and a
pompom-adorned tote to turn this casual look from gym-worthy to
street-chic.

centersdays after being blown out by 28 points against the Fighting Irish. Syracuse was stung by poor play from its centers, who totaled only two defensive rebounds and struggled to box out a bulky Louisville team under the basket.
Briana Day, SU’s leading rebounder, has secured only 12 rebounds in the Orange’s last three games after corralling 10 boards against Pittsburgh on Jan. 14.
“I don’t know what it is,” Day said, “I’m not rebounding.”
“… I don’t understand what’s going on.” Hillsman leaned on a rotation of both
Day sisters and Julia Chandler at center to solve his team’s scoring and defensive woes. Upon entering the game with 1:49 remaining in the first quarter, Chandler was promptly rung up for a three-second violation as she dished the ball outside the arc to an open Brittney Sykes.
The Orange’s centers were a revolving door of missteps early on, and Cardinals guard Myisha Hines-Allen — who led the game with 27 points — consistently made it tough down low for SU’s bigs.
Hines-Allen bodied her way past Chan-dler under the basket for a layup on the first possession of the second quarter, con-tinuing to balloon Louisville’s eventual 34 total points scored in the paint.
“I think our transition defense really broke us down,” Fondren said. “… We should’ve just kept on competing.”
SU countered with only 18 points in the paint, and was consistently met with pres-sure down low from the Cardinals center-less starting lineup.
Briana Day corralled a pair of offensive rebounds in a stretch of seconds midway through the second quarter, but failed to capitalize on the opportunity as she
heaved a layup over the basket entirely and into the hands of the Cardinals’ defense.
Syracuse eventually evened out on the offensive end and clawed back to an 11-point deficit, but was met with familiar problems in the paramount minutes of the fourth quarter.
On one of the Orange’s final fast break attempts with the game within reach, Sykes looked down the court to a streaking Bria Day. She lobbed a long pass forward that just deflected off Bria Day’s out-stretched hand, dinging the Orange for another one of its 19 turnovers.
The play provided a sense of finality to the game, one that was always out of reach.
Said Hillsman: “I don’t think we were ready to play. We came out flat.”
freshman has played 23, 18 and 32 min-utes, respectively, in the past three games. Before that stretch, he had only played more than 10 minutes once. He’s racked up three steals and is averaging 6.7 points in those games.
Brey said Pflueger has always played well defensively, but now is more danger-ous being that his offensive game is com-ing around. After Jackson left on Saturday against Boston College, Pflueger continued finding his role in UND’s offense with the increased minutes.
“We take such pride in taking care of the ball and our assist-to-turnover ratio,
and that was new territory for him this preseason. He has come a long way there, and his shot selection,” Brey said. “… I thought it was a big day for another step of development, but he is really a key for us, and he’s really a key with Jackson out.”
On Gbinije Brey said he likes to recognize when trans-fers play well since he was a transfer him-self, moving from Northwestern State to George Washington. The combination of Gbinije’s ability to hit the 3 and drive to the basket is what makes him dangerous, Brey pointed out.
Gbinije is averaging 37.8 minutes per game, but Brey said as an experienced fifth-year player, he’s more than capable of handling it. His 17.4 points per game is third in the ACC.
The biggest concern the Fighting Irish faces in defending Gbinije, Brey said, is when he breaks down defenses off the drib-ble and uses ball screens to get into the lane.
“He’s big, he draws fouls, and he has an ability to get rolling from the 3-point line,” Brey said. “But he’s a man, you’re talking about an old guard who’s seen it all. It’s a great challenge for us Thursday with the way he’s playing.”

men’s basketball
Beat writers answer 3 questions on Syracuse basketball1. At what point does the assessment of Dajuan Coleman’s play shift from, ‘he’s still knocking off rust’ to ‘this just is what he is’? Sam Blum: Dajuan Coleman hasn’t been a total bust this season by any means. He struggles as an offensive player. He’s not an A-plus rebounder, and he can’t stay on the court for a long period of time without get-ting in foul trouble. That’s all true. But he provides a big defensive presence that Syra-cuse doesn’t have anywhere else. When he’s in the game, Tyler Lydon can go out to the wing and his shooting can space the floor too. He might never be the five-star recruit that he was projected to be, but give the guy credit. He’s coming back from two years of not playing this game at full speed and is doing a half-decent job at it. Jesse Dougherty: This may seem like a way of sidestepping an answer, but Coleman is likely always going to be a player “knock-ing off the rust.” It’s near impossible to endure two major knee surgeries and miss 22 months in the middle of your college basketball career, and then come back as your “normal” self. From now on, it seems that Coleman’s normal self is a center with limited athleticism and only truly effective in the right matchup. All Syracuse can do is recognize those matchups and squeeze out all of Coleman’s slashed potential which, at this point, is solid defensive minutes and a handful of defensive rebounds. Anything after that can only be expected on a game-by-game basis, not as consistent production. Matt Schneidman: I think we’ve reached the end of thinking that Coleman can be something more. He’s never going to score or rebound in double digits and that’s not because of talent. His body simply can’t play the minutes needed to assert himself in a frontcourt shared by players who can rebound better and score more effectively. It’s a shame, really, since his downfall came after two knee injuries. But such is the real-ity of where Coleman is, whether Syracuse fans and others around the program choose to accept it or not.
2. How significant is it that Syracuse hasn’t allowed any fast-break points in the past four games? S.B.: Let me first just say that this is a ridiculous statistic. But it is also a very good indicator of the way Syracuse has con-trolled the tempo and protected the basket-ball the past four games. In SU’s three wins, Jim Boeheim said each time that it was the best defensive performance of the season, and each time he was right. When you look at the Miami and Pittsburgh losses, sloppy turnovers led to run-out points late in games. When SU started winning, that completely stopped happening. J.D.: There are two sides to what this means. The first is offensive, that the Orange is shooting well from 3 (no long rebounds turning into easy transition buckets) and evidently taking care of the ball well enough. The other is that SU, by limiting transition and not allowing teams to score on the break, is making teams work for every single bucket. This is very signifi-cant because teams, for the most part, get lower-percentage shots in their half-court offenses and will also be a little more tired on defense if they have to grind for 20 sec-onds to get a good look against the zone. There is a slim margin for error in every Atlantic Coast Conference game, but limit-ing an opponent’s transition opportunities can only make it a little wider.
M.S.: This stat is a testament to Syracuse’s ability to take care of the ball in the back-court. That’s what will happen when two fifth-year seniors are your primary ball-handlers and that’s never a bad thing. I don’t think it’s as significant as what meets the eye just because it’s negated when teams like Duke and Virginia are scoring in their half-court offenses against Syracuse. The benefits of not allowing points in tran-sition for an already thin SU team is that the game is slowed down and it conserves the few Syracuse players that see big min-utes. Still, there are many other ways to beat the Orange than in transition.
3. What must Syracuse do, either in terms of wins and losses or quality of play, to make these next four games (all at home against Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Vir-ginia Tech and Florida State) a success? S.B.: Pretty simple answer is to win. When you start out 0-4 in conference, your margin of error against teams you can
beat becomes almost zilch. Syracuse has a chance now to completely right the wrongs of the start of its conference season. And the good news is that the Orange is play-ing the type of games it needs to to make that happen. Michael Gbinije has found his stroke. Malachi Richardson has looked like the superstar we all knew he could be this conference season. Syracuse has what it takes to make the NCAA Tournament and the next four games provide it the chance to get in that conversation. J.D.: The only one of these games SU can afford to lose, considering the bigger picture and its developing tournament resume, is Notre Dame on Thursday. After that, the other three games would be less-than-impressive home wins but extremely questionable home losses. From a basketball standpoint, the Orange has to keep making strides defending the paint and figure out how to balance touches on the other end. Gbinije continues to be the quarterback of the offense, but he’s also
regaining his shooting touch to the point that Syracuse should consider getting him off the ball when it can. Nailing down an offensive identity, aside from the high pick-and-roll that helped SU edge Duke, could go a long way in maximizing all of the Orange’s perimeter talent. M.S.: At this point in the season, every loss — no matter how well the Orange plays — pushes it further off the bubble it’s already on the outside of, in my opin-ion. Three of the next four games are against teams outside the top seven in the ACC. Those are all MUST-win games for Syracuse. A win against the Fighting Irish would certainly put a check mark on the resume come March while the other three would simply keep SU af loat. Anything other than a 4-0 stretch isn’t a success, since this stage in the season calls for more than just succeeding.

Syracuse freshman Malachi Richardson has been named the Atlantic Coast Con-ference Rookie of the Week, the league announced Monday afternoon in an email release
Richardson scored 37 points in two games this past week, posting 14 in a 64-62 win against then-No. 20 Duke and a career-high 23 in a loss to then-No.13 Virginia. He hit 6-of-10 shots from behind the arc against the Cavaliers and went 8-of-15 over-all from the field. Richardson also grabbed eight rebounds in the two-game stretch and played an average of 38.5 minutes per game as the Orange won one and lost one..
Sunday night’s game against UVA was the first time all season Richardson played a full game. He also had his highest single-game field-goal percentage (53.3 percent)
when taking more than seven shots. in Syracuse’s 73-65 loss.
Richardson is now averaging 13.4 points per game, which ranks 24th in the ACC. His 47 made 3-pointers put him fifth in the conference in that category.

Class of 2016 defensive end Joshua Black has verbally committed to Syracuse, he announced in a tweet Monday morn-ing. The former Illinois commit is the fourth defensive end in the Orange’s 2016 recruiting class.
With nine days until National Signing Day, SU’s 2016 class is up to 22 pledges. Black’s commitment comes after seven players ver-balled to Syracuse over the weekend.
The 6-foot-3, 251-pound Black is ranked with three stars and as the 71st best strong-side defensive end in the Class of 2016, according to 247Sports.com’s composite rankings.
After decommitting from Illinois one week ago, Black took an official visit to Syracuse this past weekend. He enjoyed the visit, according to his Twitter, and
announced his commitment on Monday. The Harlem (Illinois) High School defen-sive end is now the second Orange com-mit from the Prairie State. He also had offers from Bowling Green, Toledo and Ball State, per 247Sports.
Black joins defensive ends Jamal Hol-loway, Kendall Coleman and Jaquwan Nel-son in the 2016 class.
It’s a position group that lacks depth as Ron Thompson (declared for NFL Draft) and Luke Arciniega (won’t use final year of eligibility) won’t return next season while Amir Ealey and Qaadir Sheppard may not be available for Week 1 (indefinite sus-pension). Class of 2016 defensive end Bran-don Ginnetti decommitted due to the new coaching staff.
Redshirt freshmen Kenny Carter and Jake Pickard are the only other returning defensive ends on the roster.

recruiting
3-star Illinois DE Josh Black verbally commits to Orange
hands together after several of her 11 missed shots. Syracuse struggled and Louisville surged to a 29-point lead with 2:42 left in the second quarter.
“I definitely did not expect that,” Cardi-nals head coach Jeff Walz said of the huge
lead. “… We started to try to go for the knock-out punch.”
Louisville’s knockout attempt failed due to missed 3-pointers and allowed Syracuse to claw back to within 19 to end the half, despite SU shooting just 18.2 percent from the field.
Though the Orange fought back to within 11 with 15 seconds left in the third quarter,
the once 29-point deficit was too heavy a burden to overcome. Peterson, who scored all 13 of her points in the second half, was the only SU player in double figures.
The Orange has dropped two games in a row to ranked opponents with both losses being by double-digits. Syracuse hasn’t led once in its last 80 minutes of play.
“I’m never going to be the victim. Never,”
Hillsman said. “We’re wounded. If you find a lion and a lion’s wounded, what are you thinking? ‘It’s not going to be OK to stick my neck out there.’
“I’m good and (the players are) going to be good. We’re never going to be the victim. We ain’t feeling sorry for ourselves and nobody should. It’s our responsibility to get better.”

GET RICH QUICK
By Jon Mettus digital editor
Associate head coach Vonn Read tugged Quentin Hillsman’s left arm back
toward the Syracuse bench, but the head coach shrugged him off and remained screaming on the court.
“Come on,” he yelled. “That didn’t look right.”
Brianna Butler had just taken a step-back jumper from the left corner, but the Louisville defend-er in front of her crashed to the floor and Butler was called for an offensive foul.
Hillsman berated the offi-cials until he was called for a technical foul.
His frustrations were boiling over. Hillsman’s team had scored just four points in the opening nine minutes of the game and ultimate-ly finished the first frame with just six points, its lowest scoring quarter of the season. Louisville got out to a dominating 37-8 lead to start the game that proved too much for the Orange to overcome. Syracuse (14-6, 4-3 Atlantic Coast) was forced to fight from behind the entire game and fell to the No. 14 Cardinals (15-5, 7-0), 71-53, at the Carrier Dome on Monday.
“We didn’t play well at all tonight,” Hillsman said. “… We can’t go into these games and not compete and tonight I don’t think we competed.”
A 3-pointer, a layup and a jumper in the lane put the Cardi-nals ahead 7-0 through the first
three and a half minutes of the game. Syracuse didn’t make its first shot until just under four minutes in and only made two more the entire first period — shooting just over 21 percent.
With two minutes left in the first quarter, two Cardinals defenders swarmed SU guard Alexis Peter-son, forcing her to call a timeout. Peterson shrugged her shoulders and shook her head as she walked toward the Orange bench.
Whether Syracuse was trying to drive to the basket, throw a pass into the paint or launch a
shot from outside, Louisville was stifling the SU offense.
The Orange finished the open-ing quarter with more turnovers (seven) and more fouls (nine) than points (six).
“When a team is making shots
and you’re not it’s kind of hard,” Peterson said.
Hillsman repeatedly threw his papers onto the scorer’s table in frustration after one of Syracuse’s 19 turnovers. Butler smacked her

UND coach discusses SyracuseMike Brey breaks down the Orange on the ACC teleconference
By Connor Grossman asst. web editor
On the heels of a loss to Notre Dame in which Syracuse never led, head coach Quentin Hillsman squatted and averted his sight-line away from the scoreboard as he watched his team struggle to make its first basket of the game.
Briana Day tried to weave
her way through two Louisville defenders with the Orange having been shutout for the opening two and a half minutes. The ball flew out of her hands as the Cardinals defense closed in.
On SU’s ensuing possession she clanked a layup off the back of the rim, and the tumultuous start to the game for the Orange’s junior center was punctuated by
two missed free throws. “It was just sloppy,” Day said. “I
wasn’t playing hard, really.” “… That’s not how you want to
start off the game.” Syracuse finally scored on a
Cornelia Fondren jumper after nearly four minutes of being shut out, and Briana Day was lifted for her sister Bria two minutes later. Briana Day high-fived her
teammates with her head down and waved off the team manager offering her a water bottle as she tried to piece together another lackluster start for SU.

Syracuse (13-8, 3-5 Atlantic Coast) hosts Notre Dame (14-5, 5-2) on Thursday night in the Car-rier Dome. The Orange is coming off an eight-point loss to No. 13 Virginia on Sunday after winning three straight.
Fighting Irish head coach Mike Brey discussed the upcom-ing matchup with SU on the ACC coaches teleconference on Mon-day. He spoke about the status of UND guard Demetrius Jackson, his potential replacement Rex Pflueger and Syracuse’s Michael Gbinije.
On Jackson’s hamstring injury Notre Dame is preparing as if Jackson won’t play due to a pulled hamstring injury he suffered on Saturday, Brey said. The junior point guard is second in the ACC with five assists per game while also averaging 16.6 points. He was selected to the preseason All-ACC first team before the season started.
Brey said Jackson will be undergoing an MRI Monday afternoon to confirm the injury is not more serious than the initial diagnosis. It’s a 3-4 day recovery, Brey said, but he wants to be cau-tious Jackson doesn’t come back too soon.
“I don’t want to bring him back too quick. I know how guys are, ‘I’m ready, I’m ready,’” Brey said. “I think we have to be really careful with this because you want to get it healed.”
On Rex Pflueger’s recent play Pflueger’s recent play makes the potential loss of Jackson more manageable for Notre Dame. The
