D uring the fall of 2012, Kelly Beni-ni left for Los Angeles to intern with Goldenvoice, the agency

behind behemoth West Coast music fes-tival Coachella. Though Benini, Univer-sity Union’s concert director, didn’t get the chance to make the trek to Indio, Calif., she still felt inspired.

“I thought it was cool to see what they were doing,” she said. “I was inspired to create something.”

That something — hosting the first-

ever student-run music festival on Syra-cuse University soil — has been in the works for more than half a year, said UU President Billy Ceskavich. Once UU crunched the numbers, he said the organization was confident the show would do well.

The idea of expanding Juice Jam from a single-stage show to a daylong festival format was broached at UU’s weekly board meeting, hot on the heels of last year’s sold-out Juice Jam con-cert featuring rapper Childish Gam-bino and electronic dance music DJ

Calvin Harris.Though the idea finally came to frui-

tion in a matter of months, last year’s UU President Lindsey Colegrove said the concept of a multi-stage festival was years in the making.

“I got the chance to budget for the event,” she said. “But I’m extreme-ly excited to see the current board exceeding expectations with Juice Jam this year.”

Ceskavich said that UU weighed price options with the logistics of a second stage. The goal was to make 2013’s itera-

tion of Juice Jam a combination of a bigger festival, a la Coachella, without straying too far from the concert’s roots. As student interest in concert program-ming changed, Ceskavich said, so did Juice Jam.

“With any event, we have a reason-able responsibility to do it right,” Ces-kavich said.

The logistics of having a second stage on Skytop Field wasn’t alto-gether impossible, but Benini said, getting all of the acts confirmed was

When people met Emma Wozny, they found her kind spirit infectious.

“She always wanted people to be happy,” said Wozny’s friend Sarah Rich-heimer, “She always tried to cheer people up with her spontaneous personality.”

Wozny, a junior psychology and neu-

roscience major, died Monday at her fam-ily’s home in Verona, N.J. She was a staff writer at The Daily Orange and spent a semester abroad in Spain with the SU Madrid program in fall 2012. Those who knew Wozny said they will remember her for her passion for traveling and her outgoing personality.

After coming back from Spain, Wozny

was brimming with stories about her time abroad, said Richheimer, who is also a contributing writer for The Daily Orange. Wozny’s passion for experienc-ing different cultures seemed to under-line her excitement, Richheimer said.

“We heard all of her stories from when she was abroad and daily she had story after story,” said Richheimer,

DJ’s On The Hill will add another 18 and older night with its monthly “House on the Hill” event. The event will be separate from the bar’s week-ly 18 and older night on Tuesday.

It will be held on the third Satur-day of every month and will feature house, techno and electronic music played by several disc jockeys, said Mike Cauchon, DJ’s bar manager.

“We created these 18 and over nights just to give kids a better club experience because the majority of kids aren’t 21,” Cauchon said. “We wanted to give kids that aren’t 21 a chance to have a night life, too.”

The idea for “House on the Hill” was created during the summer when a student disc jockey approached Cau-chon and explained that house was quickly becoming a popular genre among college students, and that the bar could specifically benefit from having an 18 and older night. Cau-chon said the “house experience” of a complex lighting and sound system also drew him in.

The bar hired additional guards with Buffalo Security Co. to pre-vent underage drinking and check IDs, while a team of four DJ’s employees covers the main floor of the bar, he said.

The four employees on the main floor will prevent underage custom-ers from getting drinks from legal friends they may have arrived with, Cauchon said. The wristband sys-tem will also help prevent this, he said, adding that underage patrons will be stamped upon entrance while those 21 and older will be given a wristband indicating they’re of drinking age. Any underage cus-tomers found with a drink in their hand will be “kicked out” of the bar, he said.

So far, Cauchon said the bar has experienced few problems during its 18 and older nights on Tuesdays, which started in January.

“As long as everyone under me and my staff is doing their job, we won’t run into any serious issues,” Cauchon said.

DJ’s wants to provide an experi-ence that is both safe and entertain-ing, he added.

Said Cauchon: “We heard from kids that they really wanted a place that they could go and have a club-like experience. I think these kids just want to go out and dance, and that’s what I’m trying to give them.”

The Department of Public Safety is providing an opportunity for bicycle tuneups Saturday and tips as part of its effort to increase cyclist safety and responsibility.

DPS Detective Cleveland McCurty is overseeing the event, which goes from 2-6 p.m. on the Huntington Beard Crouse Hall patio. The goal of the event is to better inform students about the cycling etiquette on campus and how to avoid bike theft.

McCurty said cyclists have a large presence on campus, but not all stu-dents follow traffic laws, which can lead to dangerous situations. DPS also wants to promote awareness of more efficient bike locks.

“A lot of people ride bikes, and a lot of them don’t realize that when you ride a bike in the street you’re responsible for obeying traffic sig-nals,” McCurty said. “Ultimately one of our missions is to keep staff, faculty and students safe in a campus environ-

Although the Huffington Post reported Syracuse University students ordered more late-night food from GrubHub than any other campus in the country, the go-to food site might now be facing new competition.

The newly-launched website HungryCuse.com was created by Bob Sheehan, along with his son

Devin and his daughter Siera. The family owns the company, Hungry College Menus.

The Sheehan’s have created similar websites for other cam-puses, such as HungryRhody.com for University of Rhode Island and HungryHuskies.com for Universi-ty of Connecticut. The family’s goal for HungryCuse.com is to create a food ordering site that better caters to the local market.

“I think those sites do a great job of when you bounce from place to place, but I don’t think they do the best job in their own particular local markets,” said Devin Shee-han. “There is no focus there. So really, it comes from trying to do a better job, a better branding in each specific market we come in contact with.”

A cyclist crashed into a Honda Civic on Wednesday evening, damaging the windshield and ripping off the car’s right sideview mirror.

The accident happened on the 800 block of Euclid Avenue. The cyclist was taken to Upstate Uni-versity Hospital.

Kumar Ashutosh, the driver of the Honda Civic, said he was driving down Euclid Avenue when the cyclist, who was in a bike lane on the right side of the road, suddenly made a left turn into his car.

The cyclist rode into the car’s right door, knocking off the rearview mir-ror and smashing his elbow into the windshield. The impact left a large dent in the windshield.

Ashutosh, a pulmonary doctor at University Hospital, said he talked with the cyclist before EMS respond-ers took him to the hospital. Ashutosh said the cyclist claimed he signaled

A small loft turned office space above Faegan’s Café and Pub adorns a compi-lation of polychrome papers reading the

letters N-Y-P-I-R-G. Anti-fracking signs hang next to the Mar-

shall Street-facing window; bumper stickers boasting eco-friendly slogans are displayed; construction paper signs and old campaign t-shirts allow the word “empowerment” to echo throughout the room.

These embellishments, plus the various chalk and bulletin boards, proves this space does indeed belong to one of the most effective grassroots organizations students at Syracuse University can access.

Within these walls, student-supported efforts that affect the entire state of New York come to fruition. It is within these walls that NYPIRG Project Coordinator Nicole St. James works year-round to ensure students have a platform to voice their concerns.

St. James describes the non-partisan New York Public Interest Research Group as a student empowerment organization set on being a voice for student rights and the campaigns students support. She said she acts as a liaison between the students at SU and the State Uni-versity of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry and NYPIRG’s main office in New York City.

The organization is currently heading two campaigns that should matter to the entirety of both SU and SUNY ESF’s student popula-tions: Higher Education Affordability and Voter Registration.

There has not been a major movement of student activism in the United States in decades, St. James argues. She rightfully believes the ris-ing cost of college tuition should be the cause for students to begin taking more political action.

Though NYPIRG has lobbyists in Wash-ington to speak on behalf of this issue, student representatives here in Syracuse work through-out the year to keep local politicians aware of growing concerns and to prepare for the annual Higher Education Action Day each spring. At this event, students from the local chapter nobly lobby for higher education issues in Albany and show support for affordability legislation.

The rising cost of education combined with the declining funding provided through programs like the Tuition Assistance Program affects almost every student in the Syracuse area to some extent. St. James said she is always looking for students to represent this voice, an opportunity those compelled to change this rising-cost trend should seize.

As higher education becomes a greater necessity for entering the global and American workforce, the time could not be more prime to also get involved with the organization’s push for the passage of the New York Dream Act. If passed, this legislation would give undocumented students the access to TAP they need to gain an education and therefore aid this country’s progression.

Making changes democratically often involves casting a ballot, which is why it is imperative to ensure individuals from our age bracket are registered voters. Voter registra-tion and mobilization are NYPIRG campaigns that are also of current high importance, as the registration deadline is just more than a month away.

The organization has a goal of registering 1,200 students by Oct. 11. Since the start of the semester, several hundred students have already been registered, St. James said. Though NYPIRG is a designated lead organization for the approaching Voter Registration Day on Sept. 24, encouraging peer registration should be a push of all students whether representing the organization or not.

Becoming involved politically is often an intimidating concept, but NYPIRG is an organi-zation that makes it easy.

By giving students the skills and outreach methods to make small grassroots efforts like tabling and clip boarding, or larger exertions like lobbying and event planning, true activism becomes a possibility worth reaching – and climbing to the loft above Faegan’s – for.

Like many Syracuse University students, this past weekend I became aware of the deaths of two attendees at the multi-day Electric Zoo music festival in New York City. This tragedy has hit close to home for many at Syracuse, as one of the victims, Jeffrey Russ, was a recent graduate of SU and a friend to many on campus.

To pass away so suddenly and at such a young age is always a shocking tragedy. I send my condolences to Jeffrey’s friends and family as they work to grapple with his passing.

This tragedy vividly highlights the risks present at many large-scale events. In light of recent events and on behalf of University Union, I would like to emphasize the impor-

tance of personal safety leading up to Juice Jam 2013.

Each year, we work diligently to ensure the safety of all Juice Jam attendees. As we have worked to increase this year’s venue capacity, we have worked hard to ensure personnel are ready to address safety concerns at all times. School officials, event staffers, and medical professionals are all on-hand to make sure students stay safe throughout Juice Jam 2013.

In addition, we ask that all attendees at Juice Jam take a moment to consider the

importance of personal safety. Make a consci-entious effort to stay hydrated throughout the day. Always consider the risks involved with any controlled substance. And, never hesitate to help someone in need.

Juice Jam is a time for the Syracuse student body to come together and enjoy the beginning of a fresh school year. We are thrilled to host what should be the most excit-ing Juice Jam in history. But we should also make an effort to stay safe throughout the day.

Together, we can make Juice Jam an excit-ing and responsible success.

An interesting thing about cyber warfare is that it can make a war thou-

sands of miles away feel a lot closer to home.

Aside from the shocking news of chemical warfare in Syria, U.S. citizens have been expe-riencing a high level of cyber warfare from the Syrian Electronic Army. This group of politically motivated hackers has been flexing their muscles all month with their computing capabilities.

Media companies have reported the SEA as a group of anonymous computer hackers who support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Although a direct connection has not been officially linked between Assad and SEA, it is highly suggested. According to Infosecurity magazine, SEA’s official website is registered by the Syrian Computer Society, which is a state-affiliated organization that was headed by Assad in the 1990s.

Most people have never experi-enced the violence and bloodshed of war firsthand. But due to our increasing dependence on social media and online news reporting, we have experienced the barrage of cyber attacks the SEA has committed in the past month.

The cyber attacks committed by the SEA have been frequent and numerous. NPR, The Huffington Post, Al Jazeera, Human Rights Watch and BBC Weather were the first victims.

Then about a week ago, when Obama’s course of action in Syria was still undetermined, the SEA attacked The New York Times’ website and Twitter domains, making it difficult for people to access these sites.

Most recently, on Sept. 2, the SEA hacked the U.S. Marine Corps recruit-ing site. The group posted a message directly from the Syrian army calling President Obama a traitor.

To gain access to most of these websites, the SEA used a phishing email technique targeted at the reg-istrar Melbourne IT, an Australian company that sells website addresses such as NYTimes.com.

A phishing email is an email solic-iting useful information. The only catch is that it appears to be from a trusted source. As a result, the victim will usually give the information willingly. The technique operates similarly to a double agent.

Information technology special-ists have touted the cyber attacks as fairly basic. However, it is hard to take much comfort from these statements seeing as they have continued all month. The only relief is that the attacks on these media sites have been harmless, some even quite humorous.

For instance, when SEA hacked the BBC’s Twitter account, it declared, “Forecast for Tel Aviv on Saturday – 5000 degrees Kelvin with northern fog and eastern high pres-sure front.”

But attacks like these are meant to create chaos. While the attacks have done little damage in the United States, in Syria, the SEA and other hacking groups have used compa-rable methods to create propaganda and track down anti-regime rebels.

Cyber warfare will continue to grow exponentially with our online use. As a result, Americans will be closer to war as they witness many of these cyber attacks at the same time as the government.

Ultimately, Americans will need to be more careful online. Fact checking and email assurance are now more fundamental than ever before. After all, as the Syrian cyber attacks have demonstrated, the National Security Agency is no longer the only group attempting to access our information.

After Syrian cyber warfare, citizens must use caution

The Student Association should continue to prove it is proactive with tangible on-campus initia-tives, before looking to tackle national student issues.

At the second SA meeting of the semester, President Allie Curtis discussed her experience at the ACC Presidents Conference in an address to the assembly. The con-ference focused on other universi-ties’ efforts to emphasize national student issues and gain student support to lobby local politicians. She said this is a concept that would make SA better “defenders of the students.”

It is encouraging that Curtis is looking beyond Syracuse Univer-sity and considering larger issues that confront students. Still, it is

crucial that SA puts the university first and maintains focus on the day-to-day issues yet to be solved.

SA should also make sure not to take on too many projects.

Large-scale, tangible improve-ments have yet to be seen on campus. Therefore, SA should con-tinue to undertake smaller-scale projects before broadening its scope to include national issues.

After a tumultuous spring semester with the departures of most of the organization’s cabinet members, an experienced cabinet is necessary to lead and rally students around a regional or

national issue. For now, the cabinet is getting

back on track. Assembly mem-bers voted on a new bill during

Tuesday’s meeting that provides startup money for new student organizations. This suggests a step in the proper direction and that more progress is ahead for the student group.

Continuing to cross off on-campus goals from SA’s agenda will help build its reputation among students. From there, they will be able to better hone student support for the national student issues Curtis has suggested that the organization target.

For now, SA should make sure it doesn’t bite off more than it can chew.

started, Richheimer said, she and Wozny went to the Great New York State Fair, where Wozny rode an electric bull. Richheimer said she took funny pictures and video footage of Wozny rid-ing the bull, but because she loved to make people smile, “she wasn’t even angry” about the embarrassing recordings.

When Richheimer heard the news about Wozny’s death, she said she felt utter shock and disbelief, thinking back to when she first met Wozny during their freshman year, when they lived on the fourth floor of Day Hall.

Liza Posner also met Wozny during their freshman year; the two girls were roommates. Posner, a junior advertising major, said Wozny

was quiet at first, but the two bonded over their

quirky, fun personalities. Posner said her fondest memory of Wozny

was when they would make fun of a stuffed animal, called “Sharky,” that Wozny kept on her

bed. She said Wozny would give Sharky human qualities, writing Post-it notes around the room illustrating what its interests were.

“I don’t think it’s really fully hit me yet that she’s gone,” Posner said.

Daniel McDowell had a similar reaction when he heard the news that the bright student he had just met had died. He met Wozny last week when she attended her first international relations class taught by McDowell.

“It’s just a tragedy. There’s no words to express how you feel,” said McDowell, an assistant pro-fessor of political science. “Anytime someone young and bright passes away, it’s a tragedy.”

Though Wozny only attended one class, McDowell said she had already made a lasting impression.

As a part of the course, it was suggested that students make a Twitter account, McDowell

said. Wozny was one of the first students to make a Twitter, registering her Twitter handle as @yay_psc_124, named after the class, he said.

“I thought it was so cool that she had signed up for Twitter specifically for the class and had a sense of humor about it,” McDowell said. “In class, I brought up that Emma had joined and I saw that she instantly had a smile on her face.”

The day after learning of her death, McDow-ell said he shared Wozny’s obituary in class and had a moment of silence in her honor. He said he chose to dismiss class early because he didn’t feel it was right to discuss such difficult news and then continue on as if it was a normal day.

“Unfortunately, I won’t have the chance to get to know her now,” McDowell said. “But from the brief period that she was in my class, I knew she was a special person.”

Social drinking network

By Lillian Kim Contributing Writer

T hree universities in Texas are helping the Texas Department of Transporta-tion pilot a new Facebook-integrated app

used to appoint designated drivers for events before social outings.

Of the 7,096 motor vehicles accidents in Texas involving people 18-24 under the influ-ence of alcohol, there were 2,181 serious inju-ries and 231 deaths, according to an Aug. 22 TxDOT news release.

The app is called Person Appointed to Stay Sober. Users log into the app, create an event and invite their friends, one of whom can offer to be the driver of the night by RSVPing “yes” to the event, according to the app’s website.

If no one offers to be the P.A.S.S. for the occasion, the app sends an email to the user 15 minutes before the event begins. The app lets passengers pay drivers for gas money. Poten-tial P.A.S.S. drivers submit their recommended donation amount and car occupancy.

“It is well known that college life often includes some events that involve drinking,” said Phil Wilson, TxDOT executive director, in the release. “In those situations, we hope this app will encourage college students to leave the driving to someone who has not been drinking. Crashes related to alcohol are entirely prevent-able and we feel this new technology offers yet another option to curb drunk driving.”

The app will be a one-year test run to search for adjustments that can be made to improve the program and make it more user-friendly, said Becky Ozuna, a TxDOT spokes-woman. TxDOT is currently in the process of developing versions available through Apple’s App Store and Google Play. For now, the mobile-friendly app Web page can be found at www.thepassapp.com.

The University of North Texas, the Univer-sity of Texas at Brownsville and Midwestern State University were selected to test the app.

“We chose three different schools that were geographically spread out and different in size to see how this app could work among various populations,” Ozuna said. “At the end of the school year, TxDOT is planning on adminis-tering surveys to students at each school to measure the effectiveness of the app. Depending on the results, TxDOT will then decide whether or not to expand the program.”

The University of Texas at Brownsville has trained students to talk about the P.A.S.S. app and passed out key chains and door hangers during Welcome Week to pro-mote the event, said Doug Stoves, assistant dean of residential life and auxiliary ser-vices at the school.

He added that the university’s Greek Coun-cil, as well as ROTC took the lead in this proj-ect to spread awareness among the student community.

“We plan on a continuous presence on cam-

pus throughout the school year to see how well the P.A.S.S. app can be integrated into the student culture,” he said.

Stoves and Ozuna both said they acknowl-edge that drunk driving is not exclusively a college-age problem, and expressed their hopes that the general population will use the P.A.S.S. app.

While the TxDOT is only partnering with three universities, anyone who has a Facebook account can use the P.A.S.S. app.

ment, so the traffic aspect is very important.”A large number of students use bikes for

transportation, McCurty said, and a surpris-ing amount of students continue riding bikes through the winter.

With so many bikes being used around cam-pus, DPS works to prevent bike theft.

Forty-six bikes were stolen in 2012, McCurty said. All the bikes reported as stolen had cable locks that were cut, except for two which were left unsecured, he added.

In order to limit future thefts, McCurty said the emphasis of Saturday’s event will be on theft prevention.

McCurty recommended using a U-bolt bike

lock, which he said are more effective than chain and cable locks. He said DPS will raffle off a U-bolt lock on Saturday.

The event will also offer cyclists a chance to register their bikes with DPS.

McCurty said it’s often difficult to recover stolen bikes because they’re taken out of town, or are altered so they can’t be identified.

If a bike is registered, DPS and the Syracuse Police Department will have a record of a stu-dent’s bike, which they can use to identify stolen bikes that are recovered, he said.

Steve Morris, an owner at Mello Velo Bicy-cle Shop on Westcott Street, said the major-ity of its customers are Syracuse University students, and he also recommends students register their bike.

“I’ve talked to police who say they’ve found bikes, but don’t know who they belong to, so reg-

istering it is a way they can return the bikes,”

Morris said.Mello Velo will have a mechanic at the event

to talk to students about proper bike mainte-

nance, McCauley said. Morris said in addition to using a U-bolt

lock, riders should avoid leaving their bikes outside or in an unlocked garage overnight.

Sean McCauley, who is a senior bioengi-neering major and co-captain of the Syra-cuse University Cycling Club, agreed that the best way to prevent bike theft is to keep it indoors when possible, and lock it using a U-bolt lock.

McCauley added while registering a bike is useful, it’s more important to take steps to prevent bike theft from happening at all. He said registration is only effective once a bike is stolen.

Said McCauley: “The best way to prevent bike theft is to just avoid situations where theft would be a possible outcome.”

SU graduates develop location-sharing social media appBy Shannon Hazlitt

staff Writer

Three SU graduates have helped to create an app they hope can allow people to tour the world and know about exactly where they are with the push of a button.

The free app, called CO Everywhere, launched Aug. 27. The app pulls up content from all over the world, displaying a vari-ety of information including photos, tweets, events, reviews and local deals for any area the user chooses. A team of seven, including three SU graduates, created CO Everywhere.

Unlike some earlier apps that use location specific interactive media, CO Everywhere allows users to draw their own unique area of interest with their finger on a virtual map, said Tony Longo, CEO and co-founder.

CO Everywhere then pulls up information for that area, said Longo, who graduated

from the School of Information Studies in 2001.

“The app is built on top of the world’s social content,” he said. “We only do one thing, but we do it really well— we help you define the geography.”

Within the first four days of the app’s release, CO Everywhere was downloaded thousands of times across 62 countries, Longo said.

The app pulls content from more than 1,400 sites every day, he said. Many of the sites are specific to certain areas of the globe and unfamiliar to Americans, he added.

Users can organize their content in four different ways: by events, deals from local businesses, social media interactions or all three combined and posted in reverse chronological order.

The app can also help students studying

abroad familiarize themselves with loca-tions in the country they’re studying in, Janelle Bridson, who works on CO Every-where’s community team, said in an email.

The app is similar to Banjo, an application that allows users to view social media posts based on a defined location, said Carlos Caicedo Bastidas, an iSchool professor.

CO Everywhere takes it a step further by allowing users to specify a specific area to follow, said Caicedo, who teaches a class on mobile app design and development.

“That’s very innovative from my perspec-tive,” he said.

Banjo is compatible with both Android and Apple devices, while CO Everywhere isn’t out for the Android yet. This significantly limits the number of users who can experience the benefits of this app, Caicedo said.

Longo, one of the app’s co-founders and

CEO, said creating an Android version of the app is high on the CO Everywhere team’s priority list and should be released some time this fall.

In the meantime, he hopes the app can also connect people in real life as well. Dan Adams, a CO Everywhere co-founder and CTO, once told him how he’d always wanted to learn how to pickle different types of food. Through CO Everywhere, Adams noticed a post about making pickles by a neighbor he’d never met. Because of that post, Adams gained a cooking skill and a friend.

“I got the chills when he told me that,” Longo said. “That thousands of times over for all of the people around the world who are using this app; that’s incredibly powerful.”

the toughest part of booking this year’s Juice Jam festival. All of the artists on the Juice Jam lineup had to approve all of the other acts on the bill, she said.

Benini said during the booking process, members of the UU concert board would “blow up her phone” with email chains ballooning to more than 100 messages. When looking at artist availability, Benini wanted to book artists that met a constant demand for different genres in UU programming.

This year’s acts came from both the sur-vey issued through the Office of Institu-tional Research and Assessment and from suggestions on UU’s social media outlets, Benini said.

“We had a lot of pressure to pick acts that weren’t too small, but still fit what we wanted to accomplish,” she said. “A lot of time and plan-ning went into it.”

From the early stages of selecting per-formers, Benini knew she wanted to accen-tuate a few different genres on the festival bill. One of the most common concert pro-gramming headaches — artist availability — played a pivotal role in the artists UU could bring to campus.

“We looked into some major bands, but availability didn’t work out,” Benini said. “But the responses to The Neighbourhood coming for Juice Jam on social media have been great.”

Most of the artists’ booking agents were on board with the student-run festival con-cept early on, and several were agents UU has worked with previously.

Kendrick Lamar, the Compton, Calif., rapper who netted the second most requested spot on UU’s annual Juice Jam survey, shares a book-ing agent with Earl Sweatshirt, the Odd Future rapper who headlined MayFest 2013. The same agent UU went through to book DJ Pauly D for Winter Carnival also works with DJ Robert DeLong. Pop starlet Ke$ha shares a booking agency with Juice Jam’s indie stage hip-hop artist Ab-Soul.

“It’s really a testament to building relation-ships. It’s Networking 101,” Benini said. “The agents we’ve worked with before know that we won’t just throw the artists to the wolves.”

Juice Jam is the second UU concert to get a dual-stage makeover — last year’s MayFest concert in Walnut Park was the first to get an overhaul, with both the Red Bull stage and a main stage, she said.

Ceskavich said that UU decided Juice Jam was the best option to revamp next because of its location and size. He also said that while UU works to keep programming fresh, he’s not sure the festival format would be conducive to a concert like Block Party.

“Juice Jam was the most feasible because of the openness of the venue,” he said.

The shift to a higher capacity made this year’s Juice Jam the highest selling one in its history, shattering last year’s record by a 1,000-ticket margin. The festival sold out its 9,500 tickets last Thursday.

UU bolstered precautionary measures with the added capacity, and Ceskavich said concert security is always a priority for the organization.

Ceskavich also said the fact that Juice Jam sold out and sold out quickly reaffirmed UU’s confidence in the new format. The goal of the two-stage setup is to have constant music throughout the day without overlap-ping set times.

“It’s just a really fantastic feeling,” he said.Ken Consor, a former UU concert direc-

tor, acknowledged that the concert format is something UU talked about during his tenure as concert director, but was never really put into action. He also said the festival format adds to a recent history of campus concerts setting trends.

“Syracuse concerts have been really pro-gressive compared to most colleges,” said Consor, a 2013 alumnus in the Bandier Pro-gram for Music and the Entertainment Indus-tries. “It’s a great idea; it always had the vibes of a festival. And you can definitely make a case that this is the best Juice Jam lineup since it started.”

Also progressive, Consor noted, is a con-spicuous lack of criticism in the complaints department.

“Every show we did when I was here, people complained,” he said. “I haven’t seen any com-plaints at all for this show.”

Though this year’s Juice Jam isn’t jumping head first into the music festival pool, Benini said she thinks it is a critical first step for UU toward making the Juice Jam Music Festival bigger in the future.

“We’re taking baby steps to starting a festi-val on campus,” she said.

The Juice Jam Music Festival will take place on Sunday at Skytop Field on South Campus. Entrance to the festival will open at noon, and music is slated to start at 12:30 p.m.

promoted the website with “Eat Cheap Week,” where they collaborated with restaurants to give special discounts for people who use HungryCuse.com.

Restaurants listed on their website include Cal-Zonies, Acropolis and Alto Cinco.

“The advantage is it promotes the site and the restaurants on the site,” Devin Sheehan said.

Bob Sheehan said his family has always wanted to start a website specifically for SU. The family lived in Binghamton, a city about an hour south of Syracuse, for 27 years before moving to Rhode Island.

“We did live in Binghamton for the longest time,” he said. “The kids grew up in Bingham-ton. We’re big Syracuse fans.”

The Sheehan family also stressed that interactions with students and local business-es are important, especially on social media platforms. Their main social media platform is Twitter, because it’s easier to find students constantly that way, said Siera Sheehan, Hun-gryCuse.com’s social media marketer.

For instance, a female SU student retweet-ed HungryCuse.com, which resulted in a free pizza brought to her residence hall, Siera Sheehan said.

She said that the website would continue deals like this in the future.

Because the website was launched recently, Siera Sheehan said they have not received as much attention as they would like. As of Tues-

day night, HungryCuse.com has 353 followers on Twitter and 77 likes on Facebook.

“I feel like I’ve heard of it, but I wouldn’t be able to tell you more about it,” said Alejandra Charrabe, a sophomore architecture major.

Charrabe said that, last year she and her floormates would use GrubHub about seven times a week. But if HungryCuse.com had cou-

pons and was faster, Charrabe said, she would use the website instead of GrubHub.

Drew Perdue, an undecided freshman on the pre-law track in the College of Arts and Sciences, used HungryCuse.com to order food when the dining hall was closed, after his roommate told him about the website.

“It was really convenient,” he said. “I ordered from there the other night, so I just go on and they have my order saved and all that, so I just kind of plug in what I want, and it just comes to the dorm.”

S ome meticulously plan their outfits every evening before bed, while others fly by the

seat of their pants and pick their daily duds moments before dashing out the door. I respect both methods of outfit selection; however, there are some occasions that require even the most spontaneous of us to do a little preliminary planning.

One such occasion is a concert. Getting dressed for one is akin to solving a math problem. Admittedly, math is not my forte, but I feel that I can solve this particular equation and help you look and feel spectacular at this year’s Juice Jam Music Festival.

The first step in solving this fashion problem is following a simple acronym that you may have already learned: PEMDAS. I have reformu-lated this mathematical acronym to fit our fashion purposes, and below, I explain the new, appropriate “opera-tions” that should be performed.

“P” stands for “prioritize.” When picking out a concert outfit, it is imperative that you prioritize wheth-er you want to look insanely stylish or would rather aim for functionality.

For example, you may want to wear a pair of pants or leggings that don’t have pockets. While these pants may look awesome, they are not going to afford you any storage space. You will either have to hold your belongings for the duration of the concert or bring a bag or purse, which will probably be searched before you enter the venue. This delay means more time in line and less time where

you want to be. Ergo, pockets are a must.

Footwear is an aspect of your outfit that requires you to prioritize whether you want to be stylish or comfortable. I find that the best

concert shoe for both men and women is a sneaker. Yes, flip-flops are easy to throw on, and heels and boots dress up an outfit, but these choices can lead to smashed toes or blisters. The safest choice is to slip into your best

pair of sneakers, be they old school Chucks or a new pair of Supergas.

Also, I recommend bringing a hoodie or a jean jacket that you can easily tie around your waist, given that Syracuse weather is fickle, and

odds are it will either get cold or rainy at some point.

“E” stands for “equip.” It is important to equip yourself with the essentials (i.e., your cell phone,

Foul-tasting, high-ABV beer too strong to handle, undrinkable

B E E R B I T E SBy Avery HartmansSTAFF WRITER

Nothing says “welcome back” like the massive alcohol consumption during syllabus week. This year, I decided to honor my last first week of school the right way: drinking the most alco-holic beer I could find.

Typical beers have an alcohol by volume of anywhere from 4 percent to 6 percent. I decided to double it. Enter: Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron at 12 percent ABV.

When I asked the gentlemen employees in the beer aisle if I could find anything with a higher ABV than that, they looked at me with genuine concern. But I shamelessly purchased the beer, disappointed that it only came in a 4-pack.

How innocent I was back then.When I finally worked up the courage to

crack open a bottle a few hours later, I cautiously sniffed it and was pleasantly surprised. The Palo Santo Marron, a brown ale, is brewed in handmade Paraguayan Palo Santo wooden ves-sels. Combine that with an infusion of caramel and vanilla, and it seems flavorful and delec-table — until you drink it, that is. I’m pretty sure I can still taste my first sip, despite numer-ous tooth-brushings and a trip to Faegan’s to assuage my violated palate.

The Palo Santo immediately tasted like alcohol. I should have guessed that, but it was a surprise in the worst kind of way, like when one of your roommates fills up a water bottle with vodka, puts it in the fridge, then forgets to tell you it’s not water.

But after continuing to drink it

— moving past the fact that I basically just took a shot — it got even worse. Gone were any hints of delicious caramel or the full-bodied, oaky aftertaste I was expecting. Instead, I felt like I was consuming something that was genuinely bad for me, like it was probably chewing through the lining of my stomach before biting massive chunks out of my liver.

I soldiered on. I kept thinking, “Hey, maybe it’s not as bad as I remember.” But somehow it got increasingly more disgust-ing and only succeeded in getting me a little buzzed after a third of a beer.

And here’s why: Despite the package assuring me the beer should age “with the best of them,” Dogfish Head beers are best fresh. My pack was bottled on April 10, so by now, it had lost almost all hops flavor.

I gave this beer one last chance: I offered it to two boys. In my mind, boys will drink just about anything with alcohol in it, so if a guy couldn’t handle it, this brew was truly undrinkable.

When they each took one sip and looked at me in horror, I knew it wasn’t just my underde-veloped palate that was the problem. I poured the remainder of the open beers down the drain — they were the general color and consistency of sludge, by the way — then exiled the remaining two Palo Santos to the back of the fridge.

If anyone is desperate enough, they’re all yours.

Students gear up for Juice Jam music festival

By Lauren PorterCONTRIBUTING WRITER

In mid-August, a simple 140-character state-ment from University Union got students excited. The tweet contained news about the Juice Jam lineup and did not disappoint.

“I’m ready for this year’s Juice Jam,” said Erin Bridges, a junior social work major. “It should be fun and entertaining. This is like the first big school event and you get to hang out and hear some great music.”

UU announced six acts and a two-stage festival style concert. It triggered a positive response from students and resulted in 9,500 tickets being sold, making it the highest-selling Juice Jam to date.

Bridges, who is most looking forward to seeing The Neighbourhood and Kendrick Lamar, said UU made a smart decision add-ing a second stage to the event.

“It’s a good way to make people happy and

bring a wide range of music to the school,” she said. “There is something for everyone to listen to, so I think that’s a good thing.”

The festival is taking place at Skytop Field on South Campus, per usual, but to make room for the second stage, UU is disposing of the stu-dent activities fair. This didn’t seem to bother Luke Mazur, a sophomore economics major, who said he is attending the concert merely for the carefree, outdoor environment.

“I’m really going to just hang out with my friends,” he said. “It’s still early in the semester before you really do a lot of work, so it is good to just go and have a good time. I went last year so I’m going looking forward to this year, too.”

Even though the festival hasn’t happened yet, Mazur had a suggestion to improve next year’s Juice Jam. He proposed that there should be two separate headliners who perform at different times — possibly even on different stages.

Similar to Mazur, Rachael D’Addezio, a junior graphic design major, is going for the camaraderie and also to see friends she hasn’t seen yet this semester.

“You get to just see everyone who you missed over the summer,” she said. “The fun atmo-sphere is really why I’m going; I’m not really interested in the artists that are coming.”

Others are going to see specific artists. Performing on the main stage are Kendrick Lamar, Nicky Romero and The Neighbour-hood. Artists on the indie stage are Robert DeLong, Ab-Soul and Smallpools.

Billy Ceskavich, the president of UU and senior information management & technol-ogy and political science double major, said in an email that planning and coordinating the multiple acts — and the two stages — was something his team had to start early. But they ran with the idea as soon as it seemed possible.

“We’ve worked hard throughout the past few months to coordinate the logistics for multiple stages with various SU staff. It was worth the extra work,” Ceskavich said. “We first devel-oped the idea through a brainstorming session and quickly found it both feasible and in line with growing student interest.”

Like any concert, there are some students who aren’t going to go. Some students weren’t impressed by the lineup, while others have already seen some of the performers. But the event still managed to sell out.

“I’ve never been to Juice Jam, but I’ll go next year, my senior year,” said Danielle Jimenez, a junior communications and rhe-torical studies major. “And hopefully [UU] will bring someone good, someone I want to see. All the good artists performed before I came to SU.”

Then, of course, there are the diehards who will attend the outdoor concert rain or shine. As of Wednesday night, there was a chance for rain during the day on Sunday.

Said Anibal Oller, junior information management & technology major: “I don’t care if it rains. If Kendrick Lamar will be there, I’ll be there.”

Campus parties provide memorable nights, regardless of national 5th-place rankingC H R I S T I A N U N K E N H O L Z

that guy

I know my picture clearly suggests a man who is the essence of partying.

Just last night I ate a block of cheese in slippers while getting more and more infuriat-ed at my crossword puzzle. The cheese was also “extra sharp.” So yeah, I’m a pretty wild guy.

I’m sure everyone knows this by now, but Syracuse University is now officially the No. 5 party school in the nation, with the No. 1 school being the University of Iowa, according to the Princeton Review.

And fifth is fine. Most of my pee-wee soccer trophies are just that. The more I think about it, those trophies seem a little mean-spirited.

But how did we lose to Iowa? It’s like los-ing to Corey Thompson.

Who’s Corey Thompson? Exactly.It’s not that I have anything against Iowans.

From everything I’ve heard, they are probably some of the nicest people in America and also very easy to be taken advantage of by any ole con man selling musical instruments.

I thought of my extensive cheese nights and started to wonder if I was the one contributing to the “not tubular” party reputation of Syracuse

University. Do the kids still say tubular?The more I reflected, the more I realized

that my lifestyle is essentially that of a Latina grandmother.

A good chunk of my day involves Spanish soap operas. No, really. My favorite is “El Talismán,” which is like “Lost” but even more confusing.

I began to think it was time for a change. So last weekend I decided that this Latina grand-mother was going to paint the town red, which sounds like the plot of a phenomenal blockbuster.

First on the docket was figuring out what I was going to wear. There’s a lot of pageantry to

the art of “going out.” From my experiences, a lot of the outfits people wear to go to parties would make you look like an absolute crazy person in the light of day.

I settled on a shirt with a very clear Taco Bell stain on it. In my mind it added an ele-ment of mystique to me. “What could have caused that stain?” they would wonder. “Is it blood? Is it a loaded Griller?” It was honestly a little bit of both.

Because I’m not associated with any frat, I mainly end up in only the dankest of basements, which isn’t a problem necessarily. After a while, those sweaty basements feel like home. Though if any fraternity wants to adopt me a la “Harry and The Hendersons,” I wouldn’t be opposed to it.

Getting to a dank basement is a journey full of aggressive yelling and strange misunderstand-ings. At one frat, a brother ran up and yelled, “This is not the house you’re looking for!” I questioned whether that was a “Star Wars” reference, thinking I found a fellow admirer of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Needless to say, I wasn’t let into that party.Now, I wouldn’t say I’m a good dancer. I’d say

that I’m the greatest dancer that’s ever existed.My dancing somehow combines all of the best

dance styles into one. The monkey? Check. Your drunk uncle at a wedding? Check. Intoxicated ostrich? Double-check. But as I looked up from the shenanigans occurring around me, I noticed the inherent good vibrations. Everyone, even the creepy guys prowling the perimeters, seemed to be having a good time.

These were not the feelings of people who received a fifth place trophy. And trust me, I know those feelings quite well. This was truly living in the moment. Not caring that most of the sweat you’re covered in was not produced by you. Or that there is a mysterious bucket of urine in your line of sight.

Because, really, who cares if we’re one or five, or in a dank basement or a mansion? Simply not caring is what brings about the best times.

So, stick that in your cornhole, Iowa.Christian Unkenholz is a sophomore public

relations and political science major. He can be found at Kimmel Dining Hall most nights. His column appears every Thursday in Pulp.

concert ticket, keys, cash for the day and other must-have items). In ordeto hold all of these items, your pockets cannot be shallow.

“M” stands for “map.” It is a good idea to map out your plan for the day of the concert. Are you just going to the concert, or are you going out afterward and perhaps not return-ing home until the wee hours of the morn-

ing? If you plan on doing something later on, bring a nice cardigan or jacket to dress up your concert outfit and to effortlessly complete your evening look.

“D” stands for “diversity.” It is important to keep practicality and pocket size in mind, but it is also fun to mark the occasion of your concert attendance by wearing some-thing you don’t wear every day. You could dig an old concert T-shirt from the back of your closet, or even customize a plain shirt that you don’t wear often by writing a favor-

ite band’s lyrics on it.“A” stands for “accessorize.” By all

means, wear some funky chains or load up on bangles, but whatever baubles you don, make sure that you will not be heartbroken if you lose them. Jewelry has an uncanny habit of going missing at concerts, so bear that in mind. Also, a favorite cap or beanie and some shades can top off your concert look nicely.

Lastly, “S” stands for “streamline.” While it is tempting to go all-out for concerts and

slap on some leather hot pants and a feather boa, it is good to remember that comfort is key.

So remember, follow PEMDAS and know that sneakers, pants with deep pockets, a shirt you can move in that has a dash of piz-zazz, a jacket and some light jewelry are all you need to have a sweet time at this year’s Juice Jam.

S yracuse got a taste of fall weather this week, but students who really want to cel-ebrate the season’s arrival should check

out the third annual Apple Festival on the Quad between 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. on Friday.

The Department of Recreation Services, in partnership with Syracuse University Food Services, will host the festival. It will feature games, food, a farmer’s market, products from local vendors, booths for SU programs and a 2-mile walk/run “fun race.”

Joseph Lore, director of Recreation Ser-vices, said he considers the Apple Festival one of his department’s great successes. The event brings the Syracuse community to the univer-sity’s campus and exposes students to parts of the city they may not be aware of otherwise.

“It allows the university community to experience the diversity and richness of Central New York’s products and services,” Lore said.

Local apple orchard Beak & Skiff, located in LaFayette, will provide freshly picked apples for the festival. The orchard is also open in the fall months for apple picking.

Some other companies that will be rep-resented are Gannon’s Isle Ice Cream, Spa-Zend, Gramma and Grandpa’s Kettlecorn, Joy Khan Jewelry and Karen’s Crafts. Stu-dents will be able to shop from these vendors in a “buy local” market environment.

But the Apple Festival isn’t just about buying cool stuff and supporting the local economy. One of its main purposes is to encourage a healthy lifestyle, which is evi-

dent by the 2-mile walk/run. Lore said the Department of Recreation Services strives to provide students with activities to improve both physical and emotional well-being.

“Our department offers members of the university community the opportunity to experience a variety of health and wellness opportunities through the execution of qual-ity programs,” Lore said.

The walk/run will begin at 12:15 p.m., and although participants were encouraged to register in advance, don’t worry if you missed the Sept. 3 deadline. Participants are welcome to register the day of the event.

But if physical activity or shopping isn’t really your thing, try out other aspects of the Apple Festival. For instance, everyone has to eat. Why not eat locally grown produce and other delicious food from the farmer’s market?

Although there is a farmer’s market every Tuesday in Clinton Square, some students may not have the means to go downtown to buy the reasonably priced, fresh food. The Apple Festival is a unique opportunity for people in the SU community to cater to students.

So get out of your dorm or apartment this weekend and celebrate the fall weather before the winter months set it. No matter what your interests are — whether you want to do a bit of shopping, run off the stress week two of classes laid on you or eat a healthy, locally grown meal — the Apple Festival has something to offer everyone.

Northwestern 20, Syracuse 13Missing the Mark: Pat Fitzgerald expects Kain Colter to play, Ven-ric Mark will likely be used in some capacity and Syracuse’s offense can’t score enough against Collin Ellis and North-western.

Ellis returned two interceptions for touchdowns in the first week of the season to claim national defensive player of the week honors. The linebacker, who’s been red hot in cover-age, is primarily responsible for covering opposing tight ends. In this case that’s Wales.

COLLIN ELLISSLB

If Mark plays, it seems he will be limited to offense. That’s good for Syracuse — he’s most valuable as a return man. He’s still listed atop the depth chart at running back. The front seven will be in for a chore against Mark whenever he’s on the field.

IBRAHEIM CAMPBELL

DREW ALLENQB

If Colter plays, then Syracuse will need to find a way to limit the damage he can deal with his legs. One solution could be to use Spruill to spy on the quarterback. The senior can cause problems with his arms, too, but that will be a joint effort in the secondary.

Allen was up and down in his first collegiate start and Camp-bell will provide a tough test in the secondary. With cornerback Daniel Jones out for the season and true freshman Dwight White replacing him, Campbell could take on an even greater respon-sibility in providing safety help.

Drew Allen and Greg Paulus are similar, but different. Both were first-year starting quar-terbacks for first-year Syracuse head coaches. Both transfers.Though by appearance they are quite different — one a 6-foot-5 Texan, the other a 6-foot-1 former all-conference point guard — Syracuse head coach Scott Shafer said he views them in similar lights.

“You kind of look at it as he’s an older freshman in your system,” Shafer said on the Atlantic Coast Conference coaches teleconference Wednesday.

Shafer’s comparison served as an asterisk for his assessment of Allen. He said that coming into training camp, he had to look at Allen not as a senior, but as someone almost entirely new to the playbook.

Even Allen’s 16-for-37, 189-yard, two-intercep-tion stat line in the Orange’s 23-17 loss to Penn State on Saturday had to be absorbed with the understanding that it was his first start in five years, Shafer said.

“The thing I was most pleased with was that he never really was flustered on the sideline,” Shafer said. “I thought he had good control and command. He kept working toward making the next play go. We had a few dropped balls, a couple missed routes from the supporting cast, but liked the way he worked positively through those situations.”

It wasn’t quite as sharp as Paulus’ SU debut in which he went 19-for-31 for 167 yards, throw-ing one touchdown and one interception in an overtime loss to Minnesota, but Paulus finished his 2009 gridiron experiment with more inter-ceptions (14) than touchdowns (13) in his first year playing football since high school.

Allen was good enough to earn a scholarship from Oklahoma, where he backed up two of the best college quarterbacks in recent memory in Landry Jones and Sam Bradford.

Now he has a chance to redeem himself after a shaky debut with a road game against No. 19 Northwestern in Evanston, Ill., on Saturday.

“I’m looking forward to seeing him get his second start this week,” Shafer said.

H-backs roles to expand against NorthwesternAshton Broyld and Brisly Estime are X-factors for the Orange. They play an undefined position that lines up all over the offensive side of the ball designed to provide equal parts versatility and unpredictability.

But Saturday against Penn State, Broyld, a sophomore, lined up exclusively in the slot. Only once did he run anywhere but forward — taking a pitch from Allen for a 3-yard gain on SU’s first drive.

Estime, a freshman, only saw the field for one play. He dropped a swing pass coming out of the backfield.

“(Estime) kind of wanted to take Football 101, pass it, get an ‘A’ in the class and move forward to Football 201,” Shafer said. “And that’s kind of where I see Ashton.”

Shafer said both of their roles will expand gradually this season. Broyld, who played in the backfield for the Orange regularly last year, said Tuesday he misses playing running back.

Both Shafer and Broyld did agree that the consistent reps he’s getting in the slot have been beneficial. While Shafer said on Saturday that Broyld did misread some routes, he was Allen’s most targeted receiver and finished with a team-high four catches for 46 yards.

Regarding Estime, Shafer said he’ll slowly be integrated into the offense.

“Gradual process means a little bit more and I think he’s ready for that,” Shafer said.

Tough Big Ten start provides pros, consMost Division-I teams open each season with cupcakes in the early weeks. Syracuse, howev-er, chose tougher slate starters in two favored Big Ten teams: Penn State and Northwestern.

“A lot of teams in the country will start off with some warm-up games and there’s benefits to that,” Shafer said, “but on the flip side a lot of us are starting off against foes that are pretty dog-gone good. And that’s what our schedule says.”

So far, it hasn’t worked well for SU. The Nit-tany Lions beat the Orange on Saturday and the Wildcats looked impressive in a 44-30 victory against California.

Said Shafer: “You can’t really have 20-20 hind-sight when you’re doing all the scheduling.”

program record-setting season.“Last year in the Big East, we proved our-

selves,” defender Tyler Hilliard said. “The ACC is obviously the next step up. As Mac likes to say, we’re playing with the big boys now.”

For Hilliard, an Atlanta native, and Nick Perea, a Florida product, SU’s conference realignment is something of a “homecoming,” Hilliard said. Syracuse’s new in-conference schedule includes road games to the Southern states, giving Hilliard and Perea’s families the opportunity to watch them play.

It also allows for Hilliard and Perea to com-pete against friends who play for other ACC teams, such as Clemson, North Carolina and North Carolina State.

The Big East, McIntyre said, was what attract-

ed him to SU and it was a “fantastic soccer confer-ence” for the Orange. Each Big East team played differently from the next and presented SU the challenge of a variety in styles of play. McIntyre expects the diversity to be no different in the ACC.

But there is much that sets the ACC apart from the Big East. McIntyre listed the quality of the facilities, support systems and recruiting abilities as some factors that make the ACC a stronger league than the Big East.

And then there’s the on-field success.“If you go through the number of national

championships, the number of players of the year, number of players going to the pro ranks, the coaches of the year in the ACC, it’s just amazing,” McIntyre said. “I think players and student-ath-letes want to play with and play against the best.

“The ACC is a wonderful opportunity for us to really test ourselves and that starts Friday.”

touchdowns, but fumbled early in the second quarter. Gulley only rushed for 24 yards in his first action since he torched West Virginia for 213 yards and two rushing touchdowns in the Pinstripe Bowl.

Running backs coach DeAndre Smith said Gulley’s footwork was lacking, and much of the technique they practiced during the sum-mer and training camp went out the window.

“He didn’t make plays,” Smith said.If Syracuse is able to move forward and

outduel Northwestern, it will likely be because of its running game. DeAndre Smith described Jerome Smith as powerful and Gulley as an all-around guy, and said that his task is to make sure both running backs score touch-downs and minimize their mistakes.

Against the Wildcats, DeAndre Smith said that one-cut-and-go back George Morris II and elusive runner Devante McFarlane will be used more frequently. Morris and McFarlane each ran the ball just once against Penn State.

Syracuse has the weapons. It’s just a matter of how to unleash them.

“They all present certain challenges for defenses,” DeAndre Smith said, “and my challenge is to make sure when we have a play they’re all doing things they’re capable of doing.”

When Smith spoke with his players fol-lowing the Penn State loss, he told them the unit had a lot of work to do, but that one game doesn’t make a season. Zoning in on North-western now and figuring out how to generate offense is the team’s only priority.

If the Orange’s run game improves in week two, one main reason why will be the play of the offensive line. Syracuse center

Macky MacPherson said the unit made bla-tant mistakes and was outplayed by a strong PSU front seven.

“It was kind of a knock-down, drag-out fight,” MacPherson said, “and they basically got the better of us that day.”

MacPherson said four people doing their job and one messing up was the theme of the day. Glaring mistakes stuck out when the team watched film Monday and Tuesday.

But MacPherson is confident the inevitable bumps and bruises will slowly disappear.

“This week hopefully we’ll get the running game better,” MacPherson said.

Syracuse will need to have a more complete running attack against the Northwestern defense, a unit that McDonald described as pas-sionate and skilled at stripping the ball away.

Despite the daunting task ahead, McDon-ald isn’t placing too much stock on the Penn State loss.

“The people outside of our building want to press the panic button,” McDonald said, straight-faced. “It’s a 12-game season last time I checked, and we only played one game.”

Syracuse travels to Evanston, Ill., to face No. 19 Northwestern on Saturday — its second against a Big Ten team in as many weeks. The Daily Orange spoke with Rohan Nadkarni, a beat writer for The Daily Northwestern, about the Wildcats’ (1-0) injury situation and how they match up with the Orange (0-1).

The Daily Orange: Quarterback Kain Colter and running back Venric Mark’s statuses are both in question for Saturday. What’s the latest on their injuries?Rohan Nadkarni: Kain Colter participated (Wednesday). Pat Fitzgerald was acting a little coy about it after practice, but it appears that he participated in contact drills and it looks like Kain is certainly going to factor in the game plan somehow on Saturday. How much he’s going to play, I’m not sure.

Kain is coming along pretty well. Venric, on the other hand, appears to be coming on a little slower than Kain Colter. It’s not clear how much Venric Mark is going to play.

The D.O.: If Mark plays, how much a factor will he be in the return game?R.N.: If anything, they’re going to use Venric in the backfield where they feel like he’s protected a little bit more and he can impact the game a little bit more.

Returns with Venric is sort of a double-edged sword. Not only is there the potential for him to get hurt, but how much are teams actually going to kick to him? I think they’re pretty comfort-able with having Sonny Jones or someone else return punts and kicks.

The D.O.: Collin Ellis returned two intercep-

tions for touchdowns in Week 1. What sort of linebacker is he typically?R.N.: It seems that he’s part of a linebacking group that, for some reason, is in the right place at the right time.

Last year they showed the ability to create turnovers. I think Ellis is going to be a player that has an impact. Obviously, not two intercep-tions every week or anything like that, but he’s definitely just one of those players that Northwestern has done a good job of developing linebackers in recent years and having that group be a group that creates turnovers.

The D.O.: With Daniel Jones out for the year, Dwight White steps in as a starting cornerback. He played against California, but what can be expected of him in his first collegiate start?R.N.: He kind of got picked on the very first play he went into the game, but then he came back and had a solid game. I think if you’re choosing between Nick VanHoose and Dwight White, Syracuse is going to choose Dwight White. White may be in a little bit of an easier position on Saturday considering he knows he’s going in, starting and he’ll just have a better grasp of his role.

The D.O.: Penn State did a good job to slow Syra-cuse’s running backs. How does Northwestern match up with a run-heavy team?R.N.: They’re very lean up front. Coach Fitz used to say he recruits linebackers to play D-line and he recruits safeties to play line-backer. I don’t know if they’re a team that is going to hold up 30 times against a big, bruising back, but they’re going to play that bend-and-don’t-break style.

S yracuse’s first three hand-offs set the tone for the rest of the day.

Jerome Smith rushed for 1 yard. Prince-Tyson Gulley rushed for one, too. Then Gulley ran for a loss of one on the next play and SU was forced to punt.

There was no space to oper-ate. There were no holes to dance

through. And there were certainly no game-changing runs. The ele-ment of Syracuse’s offense that was expected to be its strongest suit was stagnant against Penn State, result-ing in a 23-17 SU loss on Saturday.

Syracuse’s run game will look to bounce back when the Orange (0-1) faces No. 19 Northwestern (1-0) in Evanston, Ill., at 6 p.m. on Sat-urday. With many other questions swirling, the Orange will need its

running game to emerge as a domi-nant unit when it faces the ultra-talented Wildcats.

“I think the biggest thing we want to do is look at the tape like we did yesterday and today,” SU offensive coordinator George McDonald said, “go back and fix our mistakes and move onto Northwestern.”

The run game was supposed to be Syracuse’s bread and butter. With an inexperienced rocket launcher in

Drew Allen, Smith and Gulley were supposed to be steady motors in the backfield. But against Penn State, the running backs were anything but steady. Holes up the middle were nonexistent and runs to the outside were squelched.

Syracuse only averaged 1.9 yards per carry. Less than 72 inches. Close to seven footballs.

SU ushers in ACC era at Virginia Tech

By Phil D’AbbraccioASST. COPY EDITOR

Two years ago, Ian McIntyre received a call from Daryl Gross.

Syracuse’s director of athletics informed the head coach – who was in Akron, Ohio, for the University

of Akron T o u r n a -ment – that SU was leaving the Big East for

the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2013.Now, the Big East posters through-

out SU Soccer Stadium have been replaced with ACC banners. The transition into the new league has begun, but the new phase officially kicks off Friday.

“It’s different, for sure,” said goalkeeper Alex Bono. “It’s exciting, nerve-wracking, all at the same time.”

The No. 17 Orange (2-0) embarks into a new era when it travels to Blacksburg, Va., to face Virginia Tech (1-1) at 7:30 p.m. Friday in SU’s first-ever ACC matchup. SU formally joined the new league July 1.

“It’s a new chapter in SU Athletics,” McIntyre said. “It’s a new chapter in the history of our program. Come Friday night, I’m sure we’ll fully understand and appreciate the gravity of the game.”

In moving to the ACC, Syracuse becomes part of what many consider the strongest men’s soccer confer-ence in the country. The ACC has won five of the last eight men’s soc-cer national championships.

The SU fan base, McIntyre said, is especially excited to watch the Orange host new opponents such as Maryland, North Carolina State and Clemson.

“How you become better is play-ing against the best opposition you can,” McIntyre said. “To have these caliber teams coming to town is a real exciting opportunity to watch some high-level soccer.”

By switching into the ACC, the Orange believes the more demanding competition will help the program make its next step.

After finishing 3-12-1 in 2011, SU bounced back last year with a 14-6-1,
