Exchange student earns master’s at Rio
By Jessica Patterson
Special to OVP

RIO GRANDE — The University of Rio Grande and Rio
Grande Community College has
been continuing to expand its
global impact by strengthening its
partnerships with universities in
China. The partnership includes
student and faculty exchanges
between Rio and its Chinese partners.
Within the ﬁrst year of the partnership, the exchange has already
expanded to include graduate students seeking master’s degrees.
Li Xi, who goes by Olivia on campus, is a 2016 graduate of Baoji
University of Arts and Sciences in
Baoji, Shaanxi Province, China,
where she received her bachelor’s degree in Business English
and was awarded the honor of
Outstanding Graduate. She ﬁrst
came to Rio from her home town
of Shangluo, Shaanxi Province,
China, in the fall of 2017 to ﬁnish
her graduate studies through the
newly re-introduced Master of
Education (M.Ed.) in Integrated
Arts. Li said she has enjoyed her
time in the program.
“I learned about Rio’s integrated arts graduate program at Baoji,
where I worked in the International Ofﬁce. I thought it would
be a great opportunity for me to
learn more about education in the
United States as well as English,”
Li said. “I was a little nervous at
ﬁrst, but this was great chance for
me to study abroad and improve
my teaching skills. My professors
have all been very nice and helpful
helping me learn to adapt to the
class environment. Rio is a great
school for international students
because the teachers care about
their students. Every student is
important to them, and they will
do everything they can to help
you succeed.”
The integrated arts program
rationale states that students who
participate in the arts develop
conﬁdence, strengthen collaborative skills, and expand capacity for critical, interdisciplinary
thinking. After her May 2018
graduation, Li will be staying at
Rio through the summer to take
additional summer workshop
classes through her program. Li
said the program has introduced
her to new ways of teaching and
interacting with her future stu-

from the Master of Education in Integrated Arts degree program.

dents once she enters the teaching ﬁeld.
“Education is very different
between the US and China. In
China, students take notes from
the lecture and don’t usually ask
questions in class. Here, there is
more interaction between the students and professors. I’ve learned
to be more expressive and really
enjoyed getting to be creative
with PowerPoint to introduce
myself and my life in China to my
classmates last fall,” Li said. “My
experience with the integrated
arts program has helped me gain
more conﬁdence. I’ve learned
several new teaching and critical
thinking theories I hope to put
into practice when I begin teaching.”
While earning her degree this
year, Li has also interned with
the International Programs and
Services department at Rio. International Programs and Services
Director Dr. Eric Yang said Li
has been a great and resourceful
intern for IPS and is very focused
on her classwork.
“Olivia is a smart student and
a hard worker. She is diligent
with her schoolwork, and is very
kind, informative and friendly to
guests on our campus. She has
been a wonderful liaison to our
partner schools in China. Olivia
was already interning before I
came to Rio, so she has been a
big help to me this semester,”

Yang said. “I can see she’s totally
involved in her classes because
she knows they will prepare her
for her future. She is also a tutor
in our Student Success Center for
undergraduates and international
students. I’m very proud of her
and all she’s done here at Rio.”
Li is the ﬁrst student from the
Chinese exchange program to
earn a master’s degree at Rio. She
said she is still looking at options
for her future career, including the
possibility of teaching in Southeast Ohio.
“I’m so lucky to have had this
opportunity. When I ﬁrst came
here, I would get a lot of questions about if I was homesick,
but I never have been. Everyone
at Rio treats me like family. I’d
only been here a month, but
my classmates and the students
in my dorm surprised me with
a birthday party, and that was
really special to me. I’ve also
enjoyed helping Dr. Yang in the
IPS ofﬁce, and want to continue
introducing students at Baoji
to Rio,” Li said. “I would love
to be able to stay in this area to
teach. If I do get a job in China,
I will focus on teaching English
at either a high school or university level. I had the opportunity
to read with students from Rio
Grande Elementary, and it was
such a fun experience.”
Jessica Patterson is a communications
specialist with the University of Rio Grande.

THEIR VIEW

Juggling motherhood
and jury duty. Why
is this so hard?
The following editorial recently appeared in the
Chicago Tribune:
For as long as there have been portable breast
pumps, resourceful moms have employed them in
surprising places: under a desk, in a parked car, on
an airplane, in the principal’s ofﬁce …
Judith Miller drew the line at the men’s restroom at the Daley Center. Summoned for jury
duty last October, she consulted the Cook County
website to make sure she’d be able to express milk
for her 11-week-old son. Yes, it assured her, there
is a lactation room for jurors.
But that was news to the clerk in the jury assembly room. When Miller arrived, eager to serve, she
was told the only option with a locking door and a
working electrical outlet was the men’s room.
All together now: Ewwwwwwwwwwww.
Miller said no thanks and was dismissed. She
went home disappointed, and wrote an op-ed
for the Tribune, calling for legislation that would
require lactation rooms in county buildings
throughout Illinois. That bill, sponsored by Sen.
Elgie Sims, D-Chicago, passed the Senate unanimously in April and awaits action in the House.
Miller, an attorney and law professor, has also
ﬁled a discrimination complaint with the Illinois
Department of Human Rights.
It’s frustrating to think any of that is necessary
in 2018. Breast pumps are not a new thing. Nor is
the notion that nursing mothers should be encouraged and accommodated as they work, travel, go
to school or otherwise participate in public life.
Equally frustrating is the fact that Cook County’s considerable efforts at accommodation have
failed for lack of follow-through. All of the county’s
courthouses have a lactation room for jurors and
another for nursing mothers who have other business in the building. Who knew?
Not the clerk who offered Miller a spot in the
men’s john. And just when we were ready to chalk
that incident up to an isolated misunderstanding — because ewwww — we heard from another
juror who described a nearly identical experience
at the Daley Center ﬁve years earlier.
Kiana Keys reached out after reading Miller’s
op-ed in the Tribune. “I know exactly which bathroom they took her to,” Keys told us.
Keys reported for jury duty in July 2012 and
shared details with her online moms group
throughout the day. She was apprehensive at
ﬁrst, but settled in with a book after a clerk in the
assembly room assured her there was a place she
could pump. When the time came, though, she
was shown to the men’s room.
Taken aback, she locked herself in and gamely
began to sanitize and set up. But she quickly
became disgusted. She returned to the desk to
request another room and was told there wasn’t
one. Surely, Keys insisted, she couldn’t be the
ﬁrst to object to this arrangement. An argument
ensued, and the clerk ﬁnally handed Keys a check
for her service and told her she was dismissed.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois
has logged complaints from other nursing mothers
at other courthouses, too.
Keys didn’t know it, but she could have been
excused without showing up. Since 2006, state
law has allowed nursing moms to opt out of jury
duty. Cook County recently updated its website to
make that clear, along with posting detailed information about the availability of lactation rooms
in city and suburban courthouses. The County
Board recently pledged to survey and update its
buildings with an eye to accommodating nursing
mothers.
None of that will matter if public-facing employees don’t know where the rooms are and how to
access them. Which is why state lawmakers are
poised to pass a bill that would require all counties
to provide suitable lactation spaces in courthouses
— and to train their employees not to direct nursing moms to a men’s bathroom instead.
We shouldn’t need a law to force governments
to accommodate nursing mothers in public buildings. But apparently we do.

THEIR VIEW

‘There can’t be no nothing’
“There can’t be no
nothing.” That’s a
quote from my dad who
was nine years old in
response to his Sunday
School teacher’s explanation of where God came
from. She had said that
God came from before
time, when there was
nothing.
But what exactly is
nothing? We say, “nothing,” when someone asks
us what’s wrong and we’d
rather keep our thoughts
to ourselves. We look
through an immense
amount of what appears
to be “nothing” to see
the sky and the clouds
and the stars. We view
a surfer riding waves in
the distance, our eyesight is passing through
particles so small that we
fail to notice the air is
full of electrons and neutrons and dust.
Scientists can’t explain
everything about the
concept of nothing, but
at least they know something about nothing.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Tuesday, May
8, the 128th day of 2018.
There are 237 days left in
the year.
Today’s Highlight in History
On May 8, 1978, David
R. Berkowitz pleaded
guilty in a Brooklyn
courtroom to murder,
attempted murder and
assault in connection
with the “Son of Sam”
shootings that claimed
six lives and terriﬁed
New Yorkers. (Berkowitz
was sentenced to six
consecutive life prison
terms.)
On this date
In 1429, the Siege of
Orleans during the Hundred Years’ War ended as

had been the country’s
lawful king since the
execution of his father,
Charles I, in 1649.
In 1794, Antoine
Lavoisier (lah-vwahzYAY’), the father of

modern chemistry, was
executed on the guillotine during France’s
Reign of Terror.
In 1884, the 33rd
president of the United
States, Harry S. Truman,
was born in Lamar, Missouri.
In 1921, Sweden’s Parliament voted to abolish
the death penalty.
In 1945, President
Harry S. Truman
announced on radio that
Nazi Germany’s forces
had surrendered, and
that “the ﬂags of freedom
ﬂy all over Europe.”
In 1958, Vice President Richard Nixon was
shoved, stoned, booed
and spat upon by antiAmerican protesters in
Lima, Peru.
In 1962, the musical
comedy “A Funny Thing
Happened on the Way to
the Forum” opened on

In 1973, militant
American Indians who
had held the South
Dakota hamlet of
Wounded Knee for ten
weeks surrendered.
In 1984, the Soviet

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
“The biggest big business in America is not
steel, automobiles, or television. It is the
manufacture, refinement and distribution of
anxiety.”
— Eric Sevareid
American news commentator (1912-1992)

took another step from
apartheid to democracy
by adopting a constitution that guaranteed
equal rights for blacks
and whites.
Ten years ago: During the 2008 race for
the White House, Sen.
Barack Obama got a
front-runner’s welcome
back at the U.S. Capitol,
where he was surrounded on the House ﬂoor
by well-wishers calling
him “Mr. President” and
reaching out to pat him
on the back or shake his
hand. Silvio Berlusconi
was sworn in as Italy’s
premier. Country music
star Eddy Arnold died
in Nashville at age 89,
a week before his 90th
birthday.
Five years ago: A jury
in Phoenix convicted
Jodi Arias of ﬁrstdegree murder in the
2008 death of her onetime boyfriend, Travis
Alexander (Arias was

later sentenced to life
in prison). George Karl
was named the NBA’s
Coach of the Year for
leading the Denver Nuggets to a team-record
57-win regular season.
An apparent game-tying
homer by Oakland’s
Adam Rosales was ruled
a double by umpires in
the ninth inning, and
the Cleveland Indians
held on to beat the
Athletics 4-3. Jeanne
Cooper, the enduring
soap opera star who
had played grande dame
Katherine Chancellor
for nearly four decades
on “The Young and the
Restless,” died in Los
Angeles at age 84.
One year ago: A suspect was arrested in a
string of serial killings
that terriﬁed a Phoenix
neighborhood, a huge
break in a case that
involved nine deaths
and a dozen separate
shootings.

After a single to lead off the sixth, the Lady Mustangs scored the go-ahead run on a two-out base
hit.
Eastern had a pair of hits in the top of the seventh, but a double play and a ﬂyout gave Westfall

two, while allowing four runs, three earned, on
nine hits.

MIDDLETOWN, Ohio
— Top-seeded University of Rio Grande was
declared the champion
of the 2018 River States
Conference Softball
Tournament on Sunday
after the RedStorm won
the winner’s bracket
with a 3-0 record in the
tournament.
No. 3 seed Midway
(Ky.) University (2320) was deemed the
tournament runner-up
after coming through
the loser’s bracket and
being one of the ﬁnal
two teams remaining
along with Rio Grande
(35-11).
Rio Grande and Midway will be the RSC’s
two automatic qualiﬁers
to the NAIA Softball
National Championship
Opening Round.
The tournament,
which was being held
at Jackson Memorial
Park in Vienna, W.Va.,
was unable to be completed due to inclement
weather. The eight-team,
double-elimination tournament was scheduled
for Friday-Saturday,
but rain played a factor
throughout the weekend
by not allowing Friday’s
full schedule to take
place. The same scenario also took place on
Saturday.

Harvick takes checkered flag at Dover
DOVER, Del. (AP)
— Kevin Harvick was
ﬂanked by his StewartHaas Racing team on
the victory lane stage
when a photographer
yelled at the group,
“What are you holding
up?”
“Four!” they shouted
in unison.
Harvick, team owner
Tony Stewart and the
rest ﬂashed their ﬁngers Four Horsemenstyle and let out a
“Wooo!” before they
uncorked the champagne and sprayed anyone in their sights.
The checkered ﬂag
collection keeps growing at SHR, and Harvick is leading the way.
Harvick dominated
a race interrupted by
rain and drove to his
Cup Series-high fourth
victory of the season
Sunday at Dover International Speedway.
“I feel like we’re playoff-racing on a weekly
basis,” Harvick said.
He reeled off three
straight wins at
Atlanta, Las Vegas and
Phoenix earlier this
season and now has
the 60-pound Miles the
Monster trophy to add
to his collection.
His brought the trophy home following
his ﬁrst win at Dover
in October 2015, only
to have his young son
break the arm on the
ﬁberglass creature that
was never cleaned from
the victory celebration.
“I’m bringing it home
but do not break the
arm off of this one,”
Harvick said he told
his son. “It’s hard to
explain to people why
his playroom smells like
beer.”
Harvick swept the
ﬁrst two stages and eas-

ily chased down SHR
teammate Clint Bowyer
in the third for the lead
after a 41-minute delay.
Bowyer, who won this
season at Martinsville
to snap a 190-race losing streak dating to
2012, had asked for a
rain dance when the
race was stopped with
80 laps left.
Once it resumed, Harvick waltzed his way
into victory lane in the
No. 4 Ford. He led 201
of 400 laps and stormed
past Bowyer and took
the lead for good with
62 laps left.
“You knew he was
going to be the one that
you were going to have
to beat for the win,”
Bowyer said.
Harvick’s 41st career
Cup victory gives him a
stout nine top-10 ﬁnishes and eight top-ﬁves
in 11 starts this season.
He held four ﬁngers out
the window as he took
a victory lap on the
mile concrete track and
won at Dover for the
second time.
Bowyer was second.
Daniel Suarez, Martin
Truex Jr. and Kurt
Busch rounded out the
top ﬁve.
SHR had three cars
in the top ﬁve with
Harvick, Bowyer and
Busch.
“Three cars in the
top ﬁve says a lot about
where we are as a company,” Harvick said.
“It’s fun racing your
teammate.”
SHR has ﬁve wins
this season and has
never won more than
six in its 10-year history.
“It’s days like today
that builds momentum
for the organization,”
Stewart said. “It’s about
evolution.”

NASCAR waits
another week for its
own transformation to
happen.
The ballyhooed
youth movement that
was supposed to usher
in NASCAR’s rebirth
continues to ﬁzzle. The
Dover race program
had a photo of seven
drivers with one career
Cup win on the cover,
yet the 42-year-old Harvick continues to hold
off the so-called “young
guns.”
Harvick, Truex and
Bowyer — all winners
this year — are over 35.
One highlight,
Suarez, NASCAR’s ﬁrst
Mexican champion in
the Xﬁnity Series, did
match his career-best
ﬁnish while driving
with a broken left
thumb.
“I feel like I was putting a lot of pressure
on myself earlier in the
season, trying to put a
lot of pressure on the
team to get the results,”
he said.
Here’s what else happened at Dover:
Kyle Busch out
Kyle Busch failed to
ﬁnish a race for the
ﬁrst time this season
because of a broken
drive shaft on the No.
18 Toyota.
Busch, who had complained of a vibration
for most of the race,
was running third when
the part ﬁnally broke
and dumped oil across
the track.
Dover date
Dover had its earliest
Cup date since it started
in 1969.
“NASCAR and the
networks, they have a
pretty tough job of balancing everything out,”

track president Mike
Tatoian said. “If you look
at the overall NASCAR
schedule, it may be an
improvement. But that
means some tracks get
the short end of the
stick, some tracks get
the beneﬁt from it. From
our perspective, if we
had our choice, of course
we’d go later.”
Back it up
Pole sitter Kyle Larson
was sent to the back
of the ﬁeld because his
No. 42 Chevrolet failed
pre-race inspection three
times. Larson had won
his ﬁfth career pole and
was a heavy favorite
on the strength of two
runner-up ﬁnishes at the
track.
Alex Bowman and
Austin Dillon also were
sent to the rear because
of inspection issues with
their cars. Larson and
Bowman lost their car
chiefs, and both teams
were docked 30 minutes
of practice next week at
Kansas Speedway.
Baby on board
Larson said John
Hunter Nemechek is on
call for Kansas in case
the Larsons’ second baby
is born.
Buh-bye, Bayne
Trevor Bayne, the
2011 Daytona 500 champion, is set to yield the
No. 6 Ford next week to
the returning Matt Kenseth. Kenseth, a two-time
Daytona 500 winner and
former Cup champion,
was hired by Roush Fenway Racing to split races
with Bayne.
Up next
The series shifts to
Kansas Speedway, where
Truex is the defending
race winner.

Justify wins sloppy Kentucky Derby
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — If
you want to bust a racing curse,
call Bob Baffert.
The white-haired trainer
smashed a jinx that stood for
136 years when Justify splashed
through the slop to win the Kentucky Derby by 2½ lengths on
Saturday.
Not since Apollo in 1882 had
a colt won the roses without racing as a 2-year-old.
Now, Baffert is in position to
make another run at the Triple
Crown. Three years ago, he
trained American Pharoah to the
sport’s ﬁrst sweep of the Derby,
Preakness and Belmont in 37
years and just the 12th ever.
Records and streaks are made
to be a broken and Baffert is certainly on a tear.
The Derby record for most
wins by a trainer is within Baffert’s grasp, too. With his ﬁfth
victory, the 65-year-old snapped
a tie for second and trails only
Ben Jones with six.
Justify is just as impressive.
The imposing chestnut colt with
the blaze running from his eyes
to the tip of his nose improved
to 4-0 — winning his races by
a combined 21½ lengths. The
favorite won for the sixth year
in a row, the longest such run
since the 1970s.
Mike Smith earned his second
Derby victory, becoming at 52
the second-oldest winning jockey. Bill Shoemaker was 54 when
he won with Ferdinand in 1986.
Smith crossed the ﬁnish line
at Churchill Downs with only a
few specks of mud on his white
and green silks in the rainiest
Derby in the race’s 144-year history. Nearly 3 inches fell on the
crowd of 157,813 throughout
the day.
“Amazing horse,” Smith said.
“He’s got that ‘it’ factor. He is so
above average, he’s got unbelievable talent and he’s got a mind
to go with it. He was loving this
stuff.”
Smith’s silks were nearly spot-

less after he kept 5-2 favorite
Justify near the lead throughout
the race. He gunned Justify out
of the No. 7 spot in the starting
gate — something Baffert said
had to happen — and the colt’s
early speed helped hook leader
Promises Fulﬁlled from the
start.
“When he got away clean, then
I thought we had a chance,” Baffert said. “We had to get away.
Then Mike took his time.”
They set a blistering pace
through the muck, going a halfmile in 45.77 seconds.
“It was an unbelievable performance by the winner, on this
track, going that fast,” Derby
trainer Dale Romans said. “He
never stopped. He may be a
super horse.”
Entering the ﬁnal turn, Justify
took the lead and kept on going
to the ﬁnish under Smith’s lefthanded whip.
Justify ran 1¼ miles in
2:04.20. He paid $7.80, $6 and
$4.40.
“I was just in awe of the performance,” Baffert said. “He just
put himself up there with the
greats.”
Good Magic returned $9.20
and $6.60, while Audible was
another head back in third and
paid $5.80 to show. Audible was
the best of trainer Todd Pletcher’s four entries.
Good Magic — last year’s
2-year-old champion and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winner — was
the only horse to have a serious
shot at Justify turning for home.
Good Magic, under Jose Ortiz,
drifted out while Justify and
Smith kept a clear and straight
inside path.
“Justify looked like a big monster,” said Chad Brown, who
trains Good Magic. “We thought
he was the horse to beat and it
was true.”
Justify won his career debut
on Feb. 18 at Santa Anita under
23-year-old Drayden Van Dyke.
Baffert, sensing he had a special

horse, knew he needed a rider
who could handle the pressure
of the Triple Crown trail and
reached out to Smith.
They teamed to win Justify’s
second race on March 11 in the
mud, foretelling his ability to
handle what he would face at
Churchill Downs on the ﬁrst Saturday in May.
Justify announced his presence nationally last month in the
Santa Anita Derby, with a frontrunning, three-length victory
over Bolt d’Oro, who ended up
12th on Saturday.
“He’s the most beautiful
horse,” Baffert said. “He has
that presence about him. Every
day at Santa Anita everybody
says, ‘Who is that?’”
They’ll be talking about him
leading up to the Preakness in
Baltimore on May 19.
“The winner was brilliant,”
Derby trainer Steve Asmussen
said. “It’ll be exciting to see Justify go on.”
The victory was worth
$1,432,000 to owners WinStar
Farm, China Horse Club, Starlight Racing and Head of Plains
Partners. They bought Justify
for $500,000.
Instilled Regard, an 85-1
shot ridden by Van Dyke, was
fourth, followed by 6-1 second
choice My Boy Jack, Bravazo
and Hofburg. Lone Sailor was
eighth, then Vino Rosso, Bafferttrained Solomini, Firenze Fire,
Bolt d’Oro, Flameaway, Enticed,
Promises Fulﬁlled, Free Drop
Billy, Noble Indy, Combatant
and Magnum Moon.
Mendelssohn, trying to
become the ﬁrst Europe-based
horse to win the Derby, ﬁnished
last. The $3 million purchase
was beaten by 53¼ lengths for
Irish trainer Aidan O’Brien.
“He got beat up out of the
gate and proceeded to check on
the ﬁrst turn and was never in a
good place,” jockey Ryan Moore
said. “The race was over for him
then.”
