Vanessa Bush, editor-in-chief of Essence magazine, spoke Wednesday about the powerful impact of the magazine on its readers. Bush was one of the keynote speakers during the ACT 5 Con- ference sponsored by the uni- versity’s Magazine Innovation Center. Essence magazine was created in 1970 by four black men who saw there was no magazine that represented black women and believed the beauty and achieve- ments of these women should be showcased every day, Bush said. Today, the magazine is the number one lifestyle publication for black women. “Over the years, the look of the magazine has changed,” Bush said. “The desire to inspire black PHOTO BY: ALLISON SLUSHER women across the diaspora re- Vanessa Bush, editor-in-chief of Essence magazine poses with students from Rust College at the ACT 5 Conference Wednesday. mains unchanged.” Samir Husni, director of the use the terms support, strength, help readers in their everyday Magazine Innovation Center, smart, beauty and sense of be- lives.

Soccer is a sport where all the attention is put on the players who score goals and save goals. “Defenders The goal-scorers and goal-keep- ers grab all the headlines and are are creating responsible for either the wins or the losses. The scrutiny of a loss moments as well, and the praise of a win is put on the shoulders of these players. it’s just The leaders of any sports team is usually loud, vocal, energetic less obvious.” and the “get in your face” type of person. The leader who wants all the attention and pressure put on them. One of the leaders of the Ole Miss soccer team does not fit these qualifications. Junior defenseman Maddie Friedmann is quiet on the field, but her play is anything but that. Friedmann is the most aggres- sive player on the field for the Rebels as she tracks the ball from all angles and protects her side and manages the defense to make sure no mistakes are made. Her play is decisive, tenacious and something the rest of the team should follow. “I’m more of a composed lead- ership.
