this moral dichotomywe have the ability
Lo waLch a person dle ln real ume, even
someone millions of people hate, forcing
us to evaluate both our personal feelings
concerning murder and generalized ideals
about guilt, crime, punishment and moral

now epitomized by the video footage of

The counterargument is that the
world we live in now should promote a
system of laws that ascribe to moral codes,
LhaL no mauer whaL a human belng does,
he or she should be subject to an ordered
Lrlal and subsequenL punlshmenL. 1haL

e Faculty-Student Association
(FSA) re-elected faculty member Barbara
Chernow for a third term as president of
the executive board on Friday, October 7.
e nal vote was six to ve, an unusually
close margin considering Chernows
opposing candidate was Stony Brook
senior Moiz Khan Malik.
FSA runs several programs and
services for Stony Brook including Campus
Dining facilities and meal plans, the
bookstore and student health insurance.
FSA programs employ over 500 students
around campus. For 2011, FSAs assets
totaled just over $47.5 million.
During Chernows last two terms
as president, several large projects have
taken place, the most costly being the
renovation Kelly Dining, projected to be
completed in 2013. e projected total
cost for the project is $23 million, which
will add approximately 11,000 sq. . to
Kelly Dining. e board also passed
the closing of Benedict Dining during
Chernows last term.
Chernow, currentlythevicepresident
of facilities and services, has been a part
of the faculty since 1998. e department
oversees services areas, such as public
safety, design and construction and
environmental stewardship.
Eleven people vote for positions on
theexecutiveboard: three faculty members
who are elected by the University Senate,
three undergraduate students and one
graduate student, elected through student
government and four administrators who
are appointed by President Samuel Stanley.
Khan Malik, a senior history major,
was the only other presidential candidate in
the FSA election. Before that, Malik served
as secretary for the board of executives.
Aer losing to Chernow for the presidential
election, Malik ran for vice president and
was elected.
Its not a position thats typically
fought over, Malik stated of the oce of
the vice president. He jokingly called it the
most useless position contrived to man, in
an attempt to quote John Adams. On a
positive note, Malik said that the position
is really what one makes of it.
e duties of the vice president
include lling in for the president in the
case of his or her absence and general
housekeeping matters, including posting
meeting minutes online. Its what others
want or let you do, Malik stated.
David Mazza, a senior computer
science major, was one of the voting
undergraduate students. Mazza said of the
outcome of the presidential election, I was
very disappointed obviously. I was happy
it was close. It almost made it harder to
swallow.
At the core of it, we just wanted
a more fair and transparent process,
Mazza said. He added that along with
the election of Moiz, he was hoping for
FSA to become more student-focused,
rather than administration-focused,
citing the closing of Benedict Dining as
an example. According to Mazza, the
administration side of FSA proposed
closing the dining hall as a way to save
money. However, the ramications for
students were not fully thought out, and
because the proposal was presented a week
before the nal meeting, there was not time
to come up with a counterproposal, he said.
Mazza stated that over the last
ten years FSA, an organization that
he believes should serve the students
primarily, has been controlled by the
administration. Malik also pointed to
this fact, citing the change in the amount
of voting power students have compared
to administrators; undergraduate
students used to be given four votes in the
election and graduate students two. Now
undergraduates are given three, and
graduate students are given one.
Chernow was not available for
comment before publication.

According to the USDA, Stony Brook
University is home to several thousand
of the 23 million Americans residing in
the food deserts identied by First Lady
Michelle Obamas Lets Move campaign.
e USDA denes a food desert
as a low-income census tract where a
substantial number or share of residents
has low access to a supermarket or large
grocery store
As seen on the Food Desert Locator
on the US Department of Agriculture
website, all of the Stony Brook University
campus is considered a food desert. By
contrast, only one other SUNY university
center, the University at Albany, has a
campus even partially designated a food
desert.
Stony Brook students do have some
access to local supermarkets through both
university and county buses, but food
desert status only takes into account how
close stores are, not whether its possible to
get to them.
Despite Stony Brooks unique food
desert status among SUNY university
centers, this is not an uncommon problem
nationwide, according to USDA economist
Shelly Ver Ploeg. e University of
Michigan and the University of Maryland
have also been listed as food deserts.
e situation on college campuses
is a little dierent, said Ver Ploeg, noting
that the guidelines meant for the general
population may not always be adaptable to
colleges.
For example, she said, the placement
of academic buildings, lawns, stadiums,
and other general features of college
campuses tends to inate the distances
used by the USDA to determine the
distance from residences to supermarkets
and large grocery stores.
University spokeswoman Lauren
Sheprow echoed these statements.
e methodology of USDA also does
not take into account the fact that most
students at a residential university, such
as Stony Brook, are on a meal plan and
that freshly prepared meals are available
seven days a week, 20 hours a day on the
Stony Brook campus, Sheprow stated in an
email.
Sheprow also noted that Campus
Dining encourages students to eat healthy
and provides free nutritional counseling
from a dietician.
However, Sheprow did not respond to
questions about Stony Brooks status as the
only SUNY university center for which the
entire campus is a food desert.
Requests for comment from Campus
Dining representatives were not returned.

T
he coaching that Joia Daniels
received on the court meant extra
academic attention for it. Daniels
was doing badly in chemistry. She walked
into Stony Brook Universitys Goldstein
Academic Center, sat down with her
counselor and worked out a plan. Together
they set her up with chemistry tutors
who came to the center twice a week and
a personal tutor who met with her once a
weekall free of charge.
Daniels passed the class and received a
degree in Health Science in 2010, but it was
her dribbling on the womens basketball
team that brought her this support
Stony Brook is a Division I athletics
university. During the season, which runs
for less than six months, the universitys
more than 400 athletes must commit to
about 20 hours per week of practice plus
weekends spent away at games. In return,
the school provides them with tutors and
counselors who are available nearly 24/7,
a large amount of money in scholarships,
as well as academic and athletic facilities
designated only for student athletes.
But all the extra support for
intercollegiate athletics doesnt come
cheaplast year the university allocated
about $18 million for it$3.5 million
more than for all of the schools libraries
combined.
Many wonder why this support is not
provided to students who arent in athletics.
Although many of them have majors
that require as much time outside of the
classroom, other departments leave them
to struggle through their hectic schedule
on their own. So while basketball players
receive free tutoring for any subject, art
majors are le either to hope that the
schools learning centers cover the class
subject, or must hire their own.
While Stony Brook is a prime example
of uneven attention and funding between
athletics and academics among state
universities, it is by no means alone.
Ohio State University, one of the
biggest spenders on athletics, calculated
its expenses at almost $105 million in the
2009-10 school year. And while its revenue
at the end of the year was higher than these
expenditures, nearly all of that money went
right back into its athletic department.
Courtney Sanfelippo, assistant athletic
director for Student-Athlete Development
at Stony Brook University, explained that
colleges spend so much time and money
on athletics because having a common
team promotes school pride and gives the
surrounding community a reason to visit
the campus.
We are a sports society, Sanfelippo
said. So in order to feed societys want for
these athletes, there has to be a place for
them to grow, as people and as athletes
and college is that setting.
But with plans for yet another tuition
raise, budget cuts in most departments
and even the closure of the Southampton
campus, some students wonder whether
the university should focus more on its
academics rather than its athletics.
Last year the athletic department
awarded $6.3 million in athletic
scholarships, $2.1 million more than the
scholarships given out by Stony Brooks
School of Medicine and Health Sciences
department.
In addition to the Goldstein Academic
Center, which has a study hall, library area,
private tutor room and state-of-the-art
computer lab, the university also provides
their athletes with a plethora of support
sta.
Sanfelippo said that she and the other
athletic advisers send out progress reports

to teachers about three times a semester.
ey also meet with freshmen, transfer
students and those deemed as needing
academic support at least four times a week.
We are asking a lot of them, said
omas Chen, Director of Athletic
Communications at Stony Brook University.
He explained that it can be very
challenging for student athletes to
balance both their academic and
athletic commitments. Plus, the athletic
department acts as the face of the school to
the surrounding area.
We are asking them to represent Stony
Brook University, so we want to make sure
that they are okay.
One of the ways they do this is by
making sure they dont fall behind when
they have away games. Sanfelippo gave the
example of a Friday during spring semester
of last year. e baseball team was away
at a game, which meant that four of them
missed their nal exam.
We talk to the teacher and get that
nal and then proctor it for them in the
hotel, she said.
A senior last year on Stony Brooks
volleyball team, who requested anonymity
for speaking about the athletics department,
said that when she was a sophomore in a
chemistry course she had to miss an exam
because of an away game.
She explained the situation to her
academic advisor and teacher. e advisor
came on the trip to the game and proctored
the test at a desk in her hotel room.
Its great that they let you take it on the
road, because normally they would make
make-up tests harder or wont let you even
do a make-up test, she said.
But some students wonder why this is
only given to athletes.
Sean ONeal, who graduated last year
from the University of Oregon as a music
major, calculated that on average he has
devoted at least 50 hours a week to violin
practice, rehearsals and performances.
During the spring of his Junior year, his
playing got him accepted to the prestigious
Round Top Festival Institute for the summer.
But it started so early that he would have
to miss the schools
nals week. He had to
contact each individual
teacher before the
semester began to try
to nd classes that
would let him do this.
I ended up having
to take specic classes
that would allow me
to do this, and took
one less class than I
would have liked, said
ONeal.
Sydney Gordon,
University of
Washington music
major, also struggles
to keep up with her academic classes and
music practices.
Last year, in addition to 16 credits of
classes she also had private lessons, wind
ensemble, orchestra, baroque ensemble,
woodwind quintet and required private
practice time. Taken all together, a typical
week meant at least 34 hours of music
commitments outside of class.
I tend to only practice three-hours a
day, even though my teacher wants me to
do six to eight, said Gordon.
Even though it is her academic major
that requires such a time commitment
outside of the classroom, not only did she
not receive any money in scholarship from
the school, but just as at Stony Brook, there
are no special resources to help to make
sure she keeps up with her schedule.
We dont get much help, the advisors
dont seek us, said Gordon. Were pretty
much on our own.
While Gordon is le to struggle on
her own, Kelsey Sullivan, a senior on
Stony Brooks volleyball team, said that
the athletic departments advisers basically
run our academic lives.
ere are people there to push you
and make sure you stay on track, said
Sullivan, who remembers that last year she
was required by the department to spend at
least 10 hours each week in the Goldstein
Academic Centers study hall.
If other departments wanted to
provide that stu, I dont see any reason
why they shouldnt, but thats up to them,
said Chen.
Samantha Tracy, an art major, has just
started her rst semester at Stony Brook and
is already worried about a hectic schedule
in the coming years.
Im nervous about the rest of my time
majoring in art because it is one of the most
demanding majors because of all the time it
requires, said Tracy.
is semester she is only in one art
class and is already expected to devote
about seven hours a week to outside class
projects. In the next three-and-a-half
years this commitment will only increase.
But because she uses paints instead
of basketballs, she will never have the
resources available to her that any Stony
Brook athlete has come to expect.
