A handcuffed black male student who escaped a University of Mississippi Police Department officer was last seen running through the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house Thursday.

UPD Chief of Investigations Bobby Black said Lt. Mike Collins was on the third-shift foot patrol. Collins was arresting the student for disorderly conduct and disturbance of the peace.

He reportedly hit his girlfriend during a dispute at The Village apartments between 1:26 a.m. and 1:30 a.m.

The male student wore black polyester pants and an orange shirt and was last seen running around Fraternity Row.

He was first seen near the Pi Kappa Alpha house, Pike President Brad Hise said.

"He was hiding in our front bushes," Hise said.

A call-in hotline can be a place for anyone to turn to when in a crisis and needing comfort. But when a student wakes up, sweating and running a fever from a dream, calling a crisis hotline may be too drastic. Instead, he or she can call the School of Metaphysics.

The School of Metaphysics in Oklahoma City will be interpreting dreams from 6 p.m. Friday to midnight Sunday free of charge on its hotline, said Damian Nordmann, teacher at the school.

Nordmann said dreams will be interpreted through a 54-hour local hotline. This is the 15th year the School of Metaphysics, a nonprofit school, has offered this hotline.

"We interpret dreams based on over 30 years of research," Nordmann said.

A University of Hawaii professor found that girls who consumed more calcium weighed less and had lower body fat. The study, which was presented in a biology meeting, is the first large study to look at total calcium in adolescents.

Dr. Rachael Novotny, chair of the Department of Human Nutrition, Food and Animal Sciences of the UH Manoa College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources, and colleagues, and the Kaiser Permanente Clinical Research Center studied 321 white, Asian and mixed ethnicity girls ages nine to 14 years (average age 11.5 years).

The findings were given at an Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego, as part of the American Society for Nutritional Sciences program.
