Campus NewsEntertainment/music industry leader, Ernest Walker becomes new GM at KTSU-FM radio

A graduate of nearby Jack Yates High School School of Communications, an alumnus of the School of Music in Washington DC, and President of Walker Entertainment Group Inc., Ernest Walker has joined Texas Southern Uni-versity as the new general manager of its radio station at KTSU-FM (90.9). Walker brings more than 20 years of experience in business, production, entertainment, fundraising and professionalism to the Texas Southern Univer-sity radio station.

Walker has served as a producer and music director in all aspects of the entertainment industry, including new mediums, for many years. He has been the producer and director for national and international recording artists Chante Moore, Kirk Whalum, Al Jarreau, Re-gina Belle, the late Natalie Cole, Quincy Jones and countless other artists.

Walker has collaborated on major proj-ects with Radio One, Clear Channel Radio, KHOU-TV, ABC, TV-One, The Kennedy Cen-ter and produced shows and handled technical production, schedules, marketing, sponsor-ships and sales for various national conven-tions, concerts and festivals. He often selects TSU students to serve as musicians and/or interns.

Walker manages a staff of employees for the Abundant Life Cathedral, the Mayor’s Holiday Tree-Lighting Celebration and other major city events. He has musically produced the inaugu-rations of the Mayors of Houston for the past 10 years, and the City’s Freedom Over Texas 4th of July Celebration for the past six years.

To his credit is the fact that Walker has pro-duced, “Evolution of Gospel,” at The John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., for the

past six years, and pro-vided the entertainment for the NAACP National Convention for the past three years, traveling to various cities.

He is the vice chairman of the Gospel Music Heri-tage Month Foundation Board and has the follow-ing experience: President/CEO, Walker Entertain-ment Group since 1991; Chief Operating Officer, Marketing Houston; Busi-ness Manager, Abundant Life Cathedral; General Manager, Ablife Records, where he spent a great deal of time handling radio functions from sales to promotions, managing talent and operations.

Walker is also President of Keeping the Music Alive Organization, a company based in Houston and

designed to keep “real music” in a safe place and archived.

Over the coming weeks, Walker will assess the needs of the station and its resources and align his goals and plans with successful outcome strategies.

“To state that we’re excited about Mr. Walker joining the station, is putting it mildly,” stated Eva Pickens, University Spokesperson, Ad-vancement VP and Chair of the Search Com-mittee.

“We certainly did see some outstanding talent in the applicant pool. However, the majority of committee members feel that Mr. Walker’s energy, creativity, innovative style and knowl-edge, and perspective is what the station needs right now. The majority of the committee is familiar with Mr. Walker’s experience in the field, his work ethic, dedication to students and resources will play a vital role in taking the station to the next level. We are happy for our students in that regard as it will be critical that they receive the proper training to launch their careers before or soon after graduation day,” Pickens added.

Walker chimes, “I am anxious to get started. I have so many plans to connect KTSU with the community and beyond. For the students, I want nothing more than to see them properly trained, interning in real world experiences and succeeding beyond measure.”

Continuing Walker adds, “It really is an honor to lead this entity as we look forward to chart-ing a path to keep KTSU vital and vibrant. We will work hard to build a stronger station for our community of listeners and members. Please stay tuned.”

A Tiger Lives On: TSU Mourns the Loss of Tray Walker

Texas Southern University graduate and Bal-timore Ravens cornerback, Tray Walker died Friday, after being critically injured in a dirt bike accident Thursday night. He was 23.

According to sources, Walker was heading west on Northwest 75th Street on a Honda dirt bike when he collided with a Ford Escape driven by a 62-year-old woman. He was hospitalized in critical condi-tion at Ryder Trauma Center in Miami’s Jackson Memorial Hospital, and died Friday after fighting for his life.

The investigation into the acci-dent is ongoing and no charges have been filed, according to Miami-Dade Police.

“It just saddens me that some-one with so much potential died at a very young age. I remember meeting him at TSU and just loved being able to enjoy his spirit and see him play ball,” TSU alumna, Reba Brown said.

Many students, athletes and friends took to social media to express their condolences and memories of encounters with Walker. Teddy Bridgewater, former high school friend of Walker and Minnesota Vikings quarterback, shared his senti-ments on Instagram.

“You proved that something positive can come out of Miami Northwestern and off 71st Street… you were loved by many in the com-munity and looked upon as a role model,” Bridgewater said, according to ABC 10 News.

Walker played football and graduated from Texas Southern University and was drafted by the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round of the 2015 draft.

Although Walker played on a professional level for a short time, he and his gifts are sure to be remembered.

“You never know when your name will be called, ‘cause we all gotta go; be mindful of

your soul and where it has to go after this temporary life. Live your life with holiness and love the best you can,” Joe Anderson of the New York Jets and TSU alumnus shared on Instagram.

According to the team’s website, a viewing will be held this Friday at Friendship Baptist Church followed by the funeral on Saturday at 93rd Street Baptist Church in Miami.

“This situation is very sad and unfortunate but all I can think of is the great times I had with being a teammate of Tray. He was my team-mate for 3 years and I can say the best times

was off the field joking around sitting up in the dorms. Before and after getting drafted he was

a cool passionate guy and I will never forget the fun times. Rest easy, Tray.”

-Texas Southern Wide Receiver, Latrell Pryor

“Tray was a young man with a good and kind heart. He was humble and loved everything

about being part of the Ravens’ team. He loved his teammates, the practice and the prepa-ration, and that showed every day. He was

coachable, did his most to improve and worked to become the best. I’ll never forget that smile.”

-Ravens Coach, John Harbaugh

“Times like this make you hug your kids tight-er. A mother lost her son today, and a family lost their brother, including us, his extended

family. Tray had a bright future ahead of him outside of football and was a guy who lit up

the room with his personality. I will miss seeing him every day and seeing that bright smile he always wore. I pray that his family can find

peace. Rest well, Tray.”-Ravens Receiver, Steve Smith, Sr.

“The Texas Southern University community - its students, alumni, employees, administrators

and friends, are saddened to learn about the passing of Tray Walker. Our deepest sympathy

is extended to his family and friends during this difficult time.”

-TSU President, Dr. John Rudley

“We are deeply saddened to learn about the passing of former TSU student-athlete Tray

Walker. Tray was an outstanding student-ath-lete and an equally impressive young man off the field during his time here at Texas South-ern. Our thoughts and prayers are with his

family and friends as they endure this trying time.”

TSU VP of Athletics, Dr. Charles McClelland

SportsSports Rundown

MBB: Texas Southern Ends Postseason with Back-to-Back Losses

With the final seconds counting down, the Tigers would soon come to reality with their unprecedented fate of not repeating as South-western Athletic Conference champions for a third straight year.

Texas Southern was eliminated from the SWAC Tournament in the semi-finals after losing to the Southern Jaguars, 81-73. A slow start by the Tigers in the first eight minutes of the contest had them down by 21 points, 25-4, at the 12-minute mark of the game.

No that is not a typo, only four points scored were registered throughout the first eight min-utes of the contest.

The Tigers opened the game shooting 20% from the field (2-for-10), and committed eight turnovers. All the while shooting zero percent in four attempts from the three point arc, frus-trations boiled over and 2016 SWAC Player of the Year, Derrick Griffin, picked up a technical with 14:17 left in the first half.

As Southern would eventually go on to win the SWAC Championship and punch their ticket to the big dance of the NCAA Tournament, Texas Southern would have to settle for a consolation prize, which is participating in the Men’s National Invitation Tournament with an opportunity to win the NIT Championship.

Enter the Crusaders of Valparaiso University.

The Tigers would be plagued by a similar scenario, parallel to the one against Southern in the SWAC Tournament. Texas Southern opened the tip-off with yet another slow start and allowed Valpo to open the game on a 12-2 scoring run. The Tigers could hopelessly sit back and ponder on how they managed to start the game shooting one-for-eight from the field.

Senior guard, Chris Thomas, took matters into his own hands after the dry spell by his Tigers, and he would single-handedly do all he can to

bring the team back within striking distance. Knowing that this is his final collegiate basket-ball game, Thomas was on a tear offensively as he left it all on the floor, torching Valparaiso for his game-high 27 points. He also dished out seven assists and pulled down eight rebounds.With the season drawn to a close, although the Tigers did not fulfill their immediate goal of winning the SWAC title, nor making it out the first round of the NCAA Tournament, Texas Southern still has a lot to boast about in terms of showcasing what it means to be excellent.

Next season embarks a new journey for coach Mike Davis and the Tigers and many ques-tions for the Tigers arise, as we now move into offseason.

Who will return, and who will transfer? What positions will need to be filled as seniors graduate and move on? Will the redshirts from this previous season be ready to blossom?

The Tigers will go incognito again until Octo-ber-November, and then they get to do it all over again with new ambitions, new additions, but the same Texas Southern maroon and grey swagger.WBB: Lady Tigers Fall Short in the Semifinals of the SWAC Tournament

The Lady Tigers would see their season come to its final chapter after their loss to the South-ern Lady Jaguars, 62-54, in the semifinals of the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Tournament.

Despite a neck-and-neck battle between the two SWAC powerhouses, the Lady Tigers could not outlast the fourth quarter attack of the Lady Jaguars as they were outscored, 18-11, in the final 10 minutes of the decisive semi-finals. The Lady Tigers were led by their big three of seniors: Toni Cheadle, Keiana Vines, and Brianna Sidney, as they combined for 36 of 54 points scored by the Maroon and Grey.

Sidney included four shots from beyond the three-point arc. From there she shot 66.7 per-cent she led the way altogether with 14 points. Vines, 2016 SWAC Defensive Player of the

Year, had four blocks and two steals. She was just short of a double-double as she tallied 10 points and nine rebounds to compliment her defensive presence.

The Lady Tigers didn’t have much help off of the bench with the exception of the sixth man, freshman, Breasia McElrath. McElrath scored all seven of the bench points for Texas South-ern, in just 11 minutes of play. Four of the five starters for the Lady Tigers played 37 minutes or more. The Lady Tigers really struggled in the fourth quarter shooting 20 percent on 5-for-20 shooting from the field.

The Lady Jaguars were paced throughout the game behind the play of Briana Green who scored 19 points. She scored 10 of her 19 points in the fourth quarter. The Lady Tigers as a team only scored 11 fourth quarter points.

For seniors; Cheadle, Vines, Sidney, Parker (who hasn’t played since Jan. 9 due to a season-ending injury), and Forte, this game marked the final game that they get to compete in a Texas Southern maroon and grey uniform and the program is thankful for the years of contri-bution and hard work to continue to build the program and establish a winning culture.

As for the rest of the Lady Tigers, they move into the offseason. They get to look forward to a new recruit class coming in next year, defending their share of the SWAC regular season title, and the return of point guard Diamonisha Sophus, who was placed injury re-served after suffering a torn ACL and meniscus in the first game of the season against Kansas.

Track and Field: Tigers Bring Home the Gold in the 65th Annual TSU Relays, Despite Plac-ing Third as a Team

As a team, the Tigers place third in the overall scoring of the 65th Annual Texas Southern University Track and Field Relays.

Many Tigers were still able to bring home gold medals in their respective events.

Sports

Melissa Peña vaulted her way into first place in the Pole Vault event in the women’s divi-sion, winning with a height of 2.90m (nine feet and five inches). For the men, D’Andre Lewis blew past the competition in the 800 Meter run, running his way to first place with a one minute and 52 second two-lap sprint around the track.

Mykele Young-Sanders would leap past those in others lanes and make it to the finish line first as he won the 400 Meter Hurdles competi-tion. Young-Sanders finished the lap in 52.58 seconds in the finals.

Ultimately, Jawalyn Brooks won the Pole Vault competition to bring back the gold medal. He out vaulted teammate Cassius King, with a vault of 4.40m (14 feet and four inches). King’s vault was 12 feet and four inches (3.80m).

Softball: Lady Tigers Respond With Sweep at Jackson State

After losing to Stephen F. Austin, 13-2, at home, the Texas Southern Lady Tigers went on the road to face last season’s regular season champion, the Lady Tigers of Jackson State, and would respond with a sweep of the dou-ble-header to win the series.

After the first game, Texas Southern saw themselves winning 14-6 in the first game, they knew the second would be a back and forth battle between the two top forces in the SWAC.

In the second game, Texas Southern would show why they are the defending SWAC Tournament champion as they would go on to prevail 14-11 behind a solid sixth inning that featured a two-run hit by Brianna Simpson and a three-run home run by Tiffany Marshall.

Sports Rundown(continued)

Tyra Williams struck out five players and al-lowed five runs (four earned) on just six hits. Williams pitched five in-nings. Jasmine Fulmore was able to secure a win for the Lady Tigers in her four innings by striking out four, walking five, and allow-ing six runs on four hits.

The Lady Tigers will be in action again on March 24th and 25th when they take on the Mis-sissippi Valley State Devilettes in Itta Bena, Mississippi.

Life & Style

Now that spring break is over, graduates it is time to get down to business. Graduation is officially two months away and it will be here before you know. You don’t want to be pro-crastinating in the ninth hour trying to finish things that should’ve been done now. Here is a list of things that should get done before May 14 gets here!

Check in with your professorsMidterm grades are posted! Whether you have a little or a lot of improvements to make before finals approach, you still have time. Check BlackBoard to see what assignments you are missing and talk to your professors to see if you can make it up before it’s too late. The worse thing that you can do is wait a week before final exams and then want to make up things that you can do now.

Check all of your school accountsTake a visit to the Bell Building and talking with financial aid to make sure that your ac-count is clear. Make sure that you don’t have a balance on your account that can potentially prevent you from receiving your diploma upon graduation. Go to the registrar’s office

to make sure that there aren’t any holds on your account as well. The worse thing that can happen is that you receive a bill or a hold is on your account without your knowledge.

Study, Study, Study!If you are having a hard time in a particular class, there are several on-campus resources available to make sure that you are eligible for graduation in May. Go over to the Fairchild Building and talk with an advisor to receive one-on-one tutoring. Don’t be afraid to ask for help! There are several computer labs there that are accessible 24 hours so that you can be successful. There’s no excuse!

Purchase Cap & GownTime is winding down! It is finally time to purchase your cap and gowns. Herff Jones will be on campus March 28-29 from 11am to 3pm taking orders for cap and gowns. Don’t miss it! They are roughly $50 for the cap and gowns. Once you get the cap and gown, there’s only one thing to do…

Grad Pictures!!!Now that you have your cap and gown, you

Graduates…Graduation is 2 Months AwayBY WILLIE WILLIAMSStaff Writer

can finally start taking pictures! These pictures can be included in your invitations or used a personal memorabilia to remember the mo-ment.

Apply for jobsOne of graduate’s biggest fears is not obtain-ing a job post-graduation. The best thing to do is apply now! Companies will consider your application because you are about to graduate. Don’t be afraid to send your resume over to employers. Give them a follow up call or email to let them know that you are interested.

Relax and Enjoy the momentEven though it may seem that there’s a lot to do within a matter of two months, don’t get too caught up that you forget to enjoy the mo-ment. Graduation is all about remembering the moment of your last semester before you enter into the ‘real world’.

Make sure that you have all these things checked over your to-do list before graduation approaches.

The rumored 4-inch iPhone “SE” could be a good deal if pricing expectations hold up.

Expected to be announced at an Apple AAPL -0.01% event on March 21, the new iPhone will be — if reports at 9to5Mac are accurate — an iPhone 5s-like design with newer internals. The 5s, introduced back in 2013, retails at a starting price of $450, inexpensive by Apple standards. So, any SE priced in that ballpark (let’s say, between $450 and $550 UPDATE: it starts at $399 for 16GB verion) should be a good deal. Here’s why.

iPhone 6/6s Internals: the SE is pretty close to the 4.7-inch 6s, as spec’d out by 9to5Mac, citing “additional sources” in a post this week that followed its original report in January. Those internal specs include a much-improved 12MP camera, a faster A9 processor compared to the aging A7 chip in the 5s, and NFC for

Apple Pay. Pretty serious specs for a phone likely priced well below the 6s, which retails for about $650 for the 16GB version and $750 for 64GB in the U.S.

Emerging markets: As consumers flock to large phones like the 5.5-inch iPhone 6s Plus and Galaxy S7 Edge, Apple appears to be making a play for price-sensitive consumers who aren’t focused on screen size. Those consumers are found in larger numbers in emerging econo-mies, as pointed out by Japan’s Nikkei, which added that the “cheap new iPhone” will not be a boon for Japanese parts suppliers and be “tough” on earnings.

Morgan Stanley MS -1.29% chimed in this past week too, predicting a new 5s-like phone. “A new 4 [inch] iPhone could provide an addi-tional boost” to Apple, Morgan Stanley’s Katy Huberty said this week in a research note.

“They will likely announce a refresh to the current 4 [inch] iPhone (5s), which has been in the market since September 2013,” Huberty wrote in her note. An analysis from AppleIn-sider spells out in more detail why Apple is announcing a new 4-inch ‘iPhone SE’. AI adds that the “stigma of buying ‘last year’s phone’ is very real with consumers…But a brand new handset at a [low] price point might be more appealing.”

The new phone would also help Apple to fill a product gap between the 6s introduced last September and the next-gen phone due this fall. Whether Apple would, at some point, take this a step further and offer a more contem-poraneous physical design is less certain. But whatever happens, Apple appears ready to offer a lower-end phone with high-end internals. That should make a lot of consumers happy.

Obama arrives in Cuba for what he calls a “historic visit”Courtesy of the Associated Press

Stepping into history, President Barack Obama opened an extraordinary visit to Cuba on Sun-day, eager to push decades of acrimony deeper into the past and forge irreversible ties with America’s former adversary.

“This is a historic visit and a historic opportu-nity,” Obama said as he greeted staff of the new U.S. Embassy in Havana.

Air Force One touched down on a rainy, overcast day in the Cuban capital. The presi-dent was joined by wife Michelle Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha in the first visit by a sitting president to the island nation in 88 years.

Obama was greeted by top Cuban officials — but not President Raul Castro. The Cuban leader frequently greets major world figures upon their arrival at Jose Marti International Airport, but was absent on the tarmac. Instead, he planned to greet Obama on Monday at the Palace of the Revolution. Obama’s whirlwind trip is a crowning moment in his and Castro’s ambitious effort to restore normal relations be-tween their countries. While deep differences persist, the economic and political relationship has changed rapidly in the 15 months since the leaders vowed a new beginning.

After greeting embassy staff, Obama and his family toured Old Havana by foot, despite a heavy downpour. They walked gingerly on the slippery wet stones in the square in front of the Havana Cathedral. A few hundred people gathered in the square erupted in applause and shouted Obama’s name as the first family stepped forward.

The Obamas then dined at a privately-owned restaurant in a bustling, working class neighborhood. Jubilant crowds surged toward the president’s heavily fortified motorcade as it inched through the San Cristobal restau-rant.

For more than 50 years, Cuba was an unimagi-nable destination for a U.S. president, as well as most American citizens. The U.S. severed diplomatic relations with Cuba in 1961 after Fidel Castro’s revolution sparked fears of com-munism spreading to the Western Hemisphere. Domestic politics in both countries contrib-uted to the continued estrangement well after the Cold War ended.

“He wanted to come to Cuba with all his heart,” 79-year-old Odilia Collazo said in Span-ish as she watched Obama’s arrival live on state television. “Let God will that this is good for all Cubans. It seems to me that Obama wants to do something good before he leaves.”

Ahead of Obama’s arrival, counter-protesters and police broke up an anti-government demonstration by the Ladies in White group, whose members were taken into custody by fe-male police officers in a scene that plays out in Havana each Sunday. They’re typically detained briefly and then released.

Obama’s visit was highly anticipated in Cuba, where workers furiously cleaned up the streets in Old Havana and gave buildings a fresh coat of paint ahead of his arrival. American flags were raised alongside the Cuban colors in parts of the capital, an improbable image for those who have lived through a half-century of bit-terness between the two countries.

Many Cubans stayed home in order to avoid extensive closures of main boulevards. The city’s seaside Malecon promenade was largely deserted Sunday morning except for a few cars, joggers, fishermen and pelicans.

The president’s schedule in Cuba is jam-packed, including an event with U.S. and Cuban entrepreneurs. But much of Obama’s visit was about appealing directly to the Cu-ban people and celebrating the island’s vibrant culture.“I don’t think that the Cuban people are going to be bewitched by North American culture,” Gustavo Machin, Cuba’s deputy director of U.S. affairs, told The Associated Press. “We don’t fear ties with the United States.”

A highlight of Obama’s visit comes Tuesday when he joins Castro and a crowd of baseball-crazed Cubans for a game between the beloved national team and Major League Baseball’s Tampa Bay Rays. The president also planned a speech at the Grand Theater of Havana laying out his vision for greater freedoms and more economic opportunity in Cuba.

Two years after taking power in 2008, Castro launched economic and social reforms that appear slow-moving to many Cubans and for-eigners, but are lasting and widespread within Cuban society. The changes have allowed hundreds of thousands of people to work in the private sector and have relaxed limits on cellphones, Internet and Cubans’ comfort with discussing their country’s problems in public, for example.

The Cuban government has been unyielding, however, on making changes to its single-party political system and to the strict limits on me-dia, public speech, assembly and dissent.

Obama will spend some time talking with Cuban dissidents. The White House said such a meeting was a prerequisite for the visit. But there were no expectations that he would leave Cuba with significant pledges from the govern-ment to address Washington’s human rights concerns.

A major focus for Obama was pushing his Cuba policy to the point it will be all but impossible for the next president to reverse it. That includes highlighting new business deals by American companies, including hotel chains Starwood and Marriott and online lodg-ing service Airbnb.
