They walk without seeing, without caring, without a second glance, without acknowledgment of others. Some sit in the same lecture halls. Meet 'with the same clubs. Sit at the same study table in the library every Thursday afternoon. Sometimes, a person reaches out, and then there's a major to go with the face, a hobby or a hometown. But a person is more than a major, more than a hobby. When identity is limited to class attendance or a room munber in the dorm or participation in a club, that person is denied crucial aspects of who they are. n It's not just that the thousands don't look for the real person, sometimes, the real person is hidden. Camouflaged. Concealed. Does the Inline Hockey Club need to know you listen to classical music to fall asleep? ' Does the Economics 110 professor need to know you're a lesbian? Does the rest of the intramural softball team need to know your father is an alcoholic and your brother has Down syndrome? Drop the masks and just be. Let go of secrets. Abandon the facades.

We were just there to cheer and support the band, but then Dr. lFrankl Tracz, the band director, thought we should do lt. So we stepped up to support the band. Chelsy Lueth i l 'N .sf GJ At 11 a.m., a pile of 1,160 buffalo wings donated by Pat's Blue Rib'n Barbeque sat waiting to be devoured. At 11:04, hundreds of .rings had disappeared into the mouths f team members raising money for new and uniforms. When the Student Government .ssociation announced in fall 2008 that .inding for the marching band would e reduced, the community rallied to elp the marching band meet its need to -eplace the uniforms they had worn for lore than 20 years. 'fThe response from the community as been simply overwhelming, Frank racz, director of bands and music frofessor, said. The employees of KSDB-FM 91.9 aund a way to help. We wanted to have a fundraiser for he K-State Marching Band when we .eard of the trouble they were having, said Kristin Russell, program director and graduate student in journalism and mass communication. We also had the idea of a wing-eating contest, so we paired the two together. Tracz said this was a different idea than anything he had been approached with but was happy to accept. Their fundraiser, Feed the Pride, raised 3696. Aggieville businesses sponsored teams for S100 and student teams of four contestants paid S20 to participate. The wing-eating contest was April 18 during the All-University Open House in the quad. Teams chowed down for four minutes - each member of the team had one minute to devour as many wings as possible. The Poultry Pulverizersu won the contest. The marching band attended to support the teams. We played the fight song, played a couple cheers and really just cheered on all the people who were there to help H -in :by Stephanzfeflflikuls us and support us by eating the wings, Hannah Nunnenkamp, junior in music education, said. Band members participated in different uniform fundraisers throughout the year. 1 did almost every pep band Ceventj that we organized, Robby Avila, sophomore in music education, said. Every time Dr. Tracz did something crazy like bartend or work at a coffee shop, 1 was there. Overall, the band surpassed their original goal of S200,000 by 350,000 The interesting thing is, we don't have - for lack of a better word - a big sugar daddy, Tracz said. lt's just a lot of great, solid K-state people who just donated 5 bucks here, 20 bucks here, 100 bucks, 1,000 bucks saying that they wanted to support the band because this is needed. And it really was. This is the way to do it, because the folks who are K-staters own this band. And that's the way it should be. For a buffalo wing to count towards a teams total, the competitors had to really clean their wings. l-leinz said only about 10 wings were counted toward the Classy Cats' total because they did not get all the meat off. We just didn't eat fast enough, Fry said.

The competition was held Sept. 18, and was the closing event to the Union Program Council Awareness week, co-sponsored by UPC and Afterhours. Bands competed for a grand prize and for the first time the competition was in Memorial Stadium. This was actually the 23rd annual competition, said Amanda Hogue, music committee co-chair and junior in hotel and restaurant management. We usually have it in Bosco Plaza, but I think it was a good change to have it in a more open space. The stage was set up on the south end of Memorial Stadium, the crowd gathered on the field and other attractions were set up to the left of the crowd. In addition to the obstacle course, free T-Shirts and free snacks like mini-corndogs were available. Karem Roman, freshman in kinesiology, said he came when he heard about the inflatable game but stayed when he heard the music. This band, CKiss and Tellj, is really good, he said. We stopped to check out how good they are, and they're actually really good. Despite being scheduled the same weekend as Aggiefest, an Aggieville music event, OPU S had more bands than past years. I think overall it was a pretty big success, Hogue said. We usually only have about six or seven bands, so more bands with less playing time kept the crowd more interested. The 10 bands were evaluated by three judges on qualities including crowd participation, originality, creativity and sound. Thomas Bell, assistant professor at Hale Library, Ben Hopper, instructor in the school of leadership studies, and Samantha Clemons, 2009 winner of K-State Idol and former student, were the judges. The S400 grand prize was awarded to Eventide, an instrumental group. Whatever their reason for attending, whether as band members, judges or spectators, the music was what tied the participants together. I like the different taste in music, especially the Indie and alternative. I think it's great that different bands come out here and compete, Derek Hoetmer, sophomore in landscape architecture, said. 'Tm just impressed with all the talent and that people can balance a band and a student life. I really wanted to see what my generation is able to do. I feel like it's a new generation of music.

The other three sides had the same message, one written in English, one in Japanese and one in Dzongkha, the language of Bhutan. Each language was chosen carefully and represents something different, Allen said. CWej picked English so people would be able to read it, Allen said, Potawatomi because it's a local American Indian tribal language, Japanese because the peace pole project was started in Japan, and Bhutan - a Buddhist country that measures national progress in terms of gross national happiness? The Campaign for Nonviolence brought the peace pole to campus and dedicated it to the community on the UFM lawn Sept. 21 -the United Nation's International Day of Peace. Pat Embers, member of the Native American Student Association and Manhattan resident, performed a smudging ceremony, which involved fanning cindering sage with a turkey feather while surrounded by silence. I really enjoyed the ceremony - I thought it was beautiful, said Cammie Lehman, Allen's main student assistant and junior in Women's studies. It was perfect and exactly what I hoped for. The smudging is usually done in private, so I thought it was really special that the people who attended were able to experience that moment. It was really peaceful, and it turned out really well. The Peace Pole Project was started by Masahisa Goi in Japan in 1955. Goi dedicated his life to spread the message of peace across the World. We are facing an age where the politics of the world must be carried out by each individual who repeats the Words, tMay peace prevail on earth,' thus becoming a great force for realizing peace in the world, Goi said, according to the project's Web site. The peace pole was a spot where people could reflect on peace and see up-close a movement that was happening around the world. It symbolizes peace - not that we ever forget, Divya Neela, graduate student in electrical engineering, said. It was a great experience for me. I'd never seen a peace pole in person, I'd only heard about them. The peace pole was meant to symbolize nonviolence and be a tangible symbol of peace, Lehman said. I hope everyone gets a chance to look at the peace pole and reflect on how we can all act nonviolently in our everyday lives, Lehman said. Focus on being kind to each other in our relationships. I want it to be a reminder to people to do the best they can to act nonviolently in their everyday lives. r v-151 Y I I F 1. , .. 'f J ' O .

Other entertainment included Wayne Goins, professor of music, and The Latin Jazz Band, both brought in by Union Program Council.

' Che-lsy Luezh fre 5 h On one of the first brisk, autumn days of the year, Greek houses gathered at Bosco Student Plaza for the Greek Chi1dren's Carnival during Family Day Sept. 26. By 9 a.m., families Were swarming the area, playing games and listening to music. The greek community sponsored a bounce house, and each set of homecoming partners organized a game. t'We asked each greek house to think of a game with their homecoming partner and to keep it simple and keep it fun, said Lee Van Loenen, director of community and internal relations of the Interfraternity Council and senior in accounting. Among the many other activities, the bounce house was a new feature added to the carnival. CThe carnivalj is something for younger siblings to get excited about at Family Day, said McKayla Moore, director of community and internal relations of the Panhellenic council and senior in marketing. It's something for them to do with their rs X. XM older siblings and parents at the college their older siblings attend. lt's something more fun for them to do than walk around campus. Dave the horn guy, part of the entertainment brought in by the Union Program Council, featured Dave Enns, a Billboard-recognized songwriter, was decked out in a bright orange jumpsuit, and played songs on the 25 horns connected to it. Entertainment committee co-chairs Amanda Shankle, senior in marketing, and Chris Wallace, jimior in psychology, were responsible for his presence at the carnival. We had other members of the UPC who had seen him in other shows and recommended him,'l Wallace said. 'KWe looked him up online, and we thought he'd be the perfect guy for the kids carnival. Regardless of the variety of attractions, like Plinko, a ring toss and face painting, Moore said the turnout was less than in past years. The event wound down by 11:30 am., as participants headed to Bill Snyder Family Stadium to Watch the Wildcats take on the Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles. greek childrens carnival ll 17 W, W of Q I ' V www ' 'fwlun 'Wm I I , Vpyvfi, gy.

First, the attendees waited patiently while Jukebox the Ghost opened. The Philadelphia natives played a set of seven songs for their last show with the tour. Next, the Washington University in St. Louis a cappella group, The Mosaic Whispers, performed three songs, 'tStill Fighting It, by Ben Folds, Hide and Seek, by Imogen Heap and 'iWho Knew, by Plnk. When The Mosaic Whispers left the stage, the crowd ignited. After an hour and a half of openers, Ben Folds, singer-songwriter, finally took the stage. Months of work by the Union Program Council and its music co-chairs, Erica Boatman, senior in apparel and textiles, and Courtney Hauser, senior in psychology, preceded the high-profile concert. We started Cgetting readyj in October C2008j, Boatman said. It takes a long time to get approval for a big name like that. Starting in the beginning, my co-chair and I started polling to see how much people would pay to see Ben Folds. After that, we created a proposal and sent it to his manager about how much we'd be able to pay and information about the venue. From there, negotiations took place between his manager and the K-State Student Union. After the contract was signed, we started promoting, like chalking, making posters and getting radio promotion. Folds was frequently requested on VPC' surveys. Hauser said Folds was on tour A by Lauren Gocken promoting his new album, so things fell together for him to come. Tickets for the show went on sale at I0 a.m. March 26, and the front row seats were sold- out within minutes, and gold ring seats W the seals directly in front ofthe stage - sold out shortly after that, Boat man said. One fan, Nikki Marcotte, senior in philosophy, was shocked when she found out Folds was coming to the university. MI freaked, because that's not something that happens every day, especially here, Marcotte said. tMy friend and IJ had it planned: I had class when Cticketsj went on sale, so I prepaid my friend and at IO ta.m.j they got online and got tickets, and we got front row seats. Marcotte said she had been an avid fan since her freshman year of high school. She had seen him in concert once before seeing him at the university but had not had the same front row experience, which allowed her to talk to Folds while he was on stage. t'I'm pretty sure I was that obnoxious fan that sat in the front row, but I didn't care, Marcotte said. 'tAt one point, as any avid fan would, I screamed, LI love youl' But the part I remember specifically was when he said, 'I don't know what the fuck I'm going to play next,' and I screamed, 'Philosophyl' because thatfs one of my favorite songs. And he said, 'Yeah, really'?' and I said, 'Yeah, reallyl' and he said, tThis one is going out the girl in the front row' That was probably the most awesome part of the concert. ben folds ill 19 senior 1n nutritional sclence llometown: Overland Park, Kan. Favorite Color: Blue In three words: Genuine. Joyful. Leader. llobbies: Running, reading, playing the cello Snperpowers: I've always wanted to fly. I feel like you'd get a whole different perspective on life. Favorite thing to do in Manhattan: Anything outside - hanging out at Memorial Stadium or the Konza Prairie, walking on campus. Favorite Call llall ice cream: Purple Pride Favorite K-State memory: In January of my freshman year, we waited outside from sunrise to sunset in line for the KU game. We ended up getting eighth row seats to watch the most exciting game of basketball I've ever seen. After we won, we rushed the court. It was the coolest feeling to be down on the court in a sea of other K-Statersi' Meaning of being a K-Stater: It's cliche, but so much of K-State revolves around the atmosphere here and the human connection. K-Staters genuinely care about one another and work to make someone else's K-State experience just as special as their own. Meaning of Queen: What an honor to be recognized as someone who represents K-State and embodies those things that the student body holds as important. When Stripped: 'fl feel like 'what you see is what you get' with me. I'm very genuine on a daily basis, so the 'stripped' me is what you see when you meet me for the first time. I love the simple things in life: Sonic happy hour, a cozy, rainy day, running around the track at Memorial Stadium. 20 Ill student life Darren Al O sophomore in secondary education Hometown: Lyons, Kan. Favorite Color: Royal purple In three words: Passionate. Involved. Outgoing. Hobbies: The thing I enjoy most is going to whatever K-State athletics event is happening at the time. There is no better feeling then yelling your head off and Wabashing with a few thousand of your closest friends. When I am not working on school or anything else K-State, related I enjoy going on long runs. Superpowers: If I had super powers, I would probably ask for Batman-like abilities. Favorite thing to do in Manhattan: As long as I am either in Bill Snyder Family Stadium or Bramlage Coliseum, I am the happiest man in the world. Favorite Call llall ice cream: When it comes to Call Hall ice cream you can't really go wrong. Favorite K-State memory: When I first came to K-State as a high school senior, I was on my first tour of campus. Upon the conclusion of the tour, I asked my tour guide if he liked K-State. I was really surprised that when he began to answer the question he started crying. As a high school senior, I thought he was just crazy, but now that I have experienced K-State, I can truly see why he would have such a passion for the university. Meaning of being a K-Stater: Being a K-Stater means being a part of the best college family in the nation. I truly believe you aren't only a K-Stater for your four or five-plus years of college, but you are a K-Stater for life. When Stripped: I am a really caring person who is very passionate about everything he does. I am also a very carefree, fun person. king and queen Ill 21 onthe :murder for dinner Guests entered and sat at tables surrounding a raised platform. At 6:30 p.m. two characters, Nessa Kinsington, played by Dianne Paukstelis, and Austie Trousers, played by T-Shane Roberts, entered the room. Paukstelis, clad in a form-fitting, strapless silver dress and her counterpart, in an Austin Powers-style get-up, began Murder is My Middle Name, a Union Program Council and WHODUNIT Caper's dinner theater presentation Sept. 25. I think it was pretty successful, we had 250 people buy tickets, which is the most we've ever sold for a dinner theater, Ashley Moore, co-chair of the arts council and junior in biology, said. We really enjoyed working with the WHODUNIT Capers troupe, they are very easy to work with and put on a good performance. The cast of seven put on a show about secret agents, one of whom, Dr. Yes, played by Luke Stramel, was murdered. The rest of the performance was dedicated to finding his murderer. QWe do thisj wherever people need a dinner that's not boring, Stramel said. As the show progressed, so did the meal. The actors stopped the show to allow the audience a chance to eat their meal and once again near the end of the show for apple pie. However, the cast never stopped performing. The actors traveled to all the tables and, without breaking character, chatted with the audience and 22 M student life by Anna Kearns delivered clues pertaining to the murder. Paukstelis said about 20 minutes of the show was scripted, but the improvised part was performed while the audience ate. 'Every audience is different, Paukstelis said. Part of the whole interactive aspect of this kind of theater is that you have to respond to your audience. So it all plays differently every night. In addition to receiving clues, the audience participated in the show. Two audience members were asked to hold the super secret identity machine, a curtain behind which cast members put on disguises. Later, two more audience members, an older man and a young boy, donned blonde wigs and bright pink, shiny bras to act as distractions during a key moment. We don't always pick the people who raise their hand, Stramel said, Uwe pick the people who would make the most embarrassing situation fun. The rest of the audience got to participate when it was time to name the killer. Each table was asked to Vote on who they thought the killer was. The Manhattan company did a variety of shows, including a soap opera version and a beauty pageant version. Many of their shows were performed at colleges and other schools, but they also did corporate events. uThis type of theater is the fastest growing kind of theater in the United States today, Paukstelis said. People really like this interactive kind of theater, and it's relatively inexpensive to produce.

Their leaps into the lake raised approximately 315,500 for the Kansas Special Olympics Feb. 27. We decided to get a team going, raise as much money as We could, and now We are not warm, Brianna Schulte, senior in mass communications, said. I've had Warmer days, but I'm feeling pretty good. It was for a good cause. Polar Plunge had been held in Kansas for more than 12 years and was sponsored by the Law Enforcement Torch Run. Approximately 20-30 teams and individuals raised money and took the plunge in return. We didn't think We were going to l do it, but in the last Week and a half We finally said, 'OK, let's do this, ' said James Rico, historian of Phi Beta Sigma and senior in psychology. We raised S200 in one Week. We jumped on it as fast as We couldf' In addition to the plunge, the event had a light atmosphere because participants dressed up for a costume contest. Some teams were dressed as Smurfs and penguins, While others Wore hula skirts, Speedos and tutus. uit kind of just creates some fun, and Fl? Y' 1 Phi Beta Sigma fraternity runs out of chilly Tuttle Creek in order to raise money for the Special Olympics. Although it vyas cold outside l really enjoyed the whole thing because I knew we were raising money for really great cause, Wilson Meeks Ill, senior in architecture, said. Dan lylinihan, puts a plunger on his head with his fathers help. Plungers were placed on the participants heads before they entered the vvater. Members ot Phi Beta Sigma fraternity also traveled to Fort Hays State University to help raise money for the Special Olympics. Chelsy Lueth lot of teams really get into it and have me creativity said Jana Fornelli, state irector of the Special Olympics Kansas olar Plunge My favorite were the enguins they were really cute. Participants said freezing was worth eir efforts to fundraise for a good cause. Its just good to realize how you can ork toward something good, Schulte aid I know it doesnt really seem like it y freezing but we ve raised money, and re can put it toward an effort that will iatter to a lot of people. A minimum of six months went tto making the plunge possible at 10 Jcations statewide Prior to the event, I 8 l I 'N medical specifics, logisitics, prizes and public relations personnel coordinated to make the event safe. uEverybody does have to sign a waiver, Fornelli said. MWe encourage shoes to wear into the water, and we don't let people stay in the water very long. Those Wanting to participate without getting cold and wet could donate for others to plunge. Different teams and individuals took varying approaches in raising money for the event. Some groups, such as greek houses, set up tables in the K-State Student Union. ttWe're giving up something for a bigger cause, so that's the reason people donate, Rico said. Because they want to get involved but don't want to jump, we do it for them. An afterparty at R.C. McGraws allowed participants to mingle. Prizes went to the individual or team that raised the most money and those who won the costume contest. R.C. McGraws raised the most money for the plunge - 34,086 I know it's hard for people to want to jump into the cold water, but it shows Special Olympics athletes that you can do it for them, Fornelli said. I think it's something unique - it's an opportunity to support Special Olympics and just give back to people. polar plunge ll 25 Z6 t t student life by iWf'f1'.S.SKl M. T aylor Among the board university, he said. I consider myself meetings, speaking engagements and incessant travel, Kirk Schulz, 13th university president, maintained the balance between the presidency and his personal life. He enjoyed reading science fiction by Isaac Asimov with the family cat, Amber, curled up by his side. He liked a bowl of Purple Pride Call Hall ice cream and listened to ABBA on his iPod.

Matt Castro the same guy I was 220 years ago, and it's surprising how people make a big deal about meeting the president. I just don't consider myself anyone special. Schulz fulfilled his career dream February 2009 when the university officially announced him as the next president. Some of his primary objectives for the first few months, besides familiarizing himself with campus and the community, were to get more purple in his wardrobe and to make himself available for comments and suggestions about the university. He Wrote monthly Letters to Campus, blogged, hosted radio chats and maintained a Facebook profile to stay in touch with the university's community. 'LI need to learn as mitch as possible about Kansas State, he said in his first Letters to Campus. I want to use these opportunities on campus to visit with faculty, staff and students and to get a feeling forthe 'pulse' of K-State. He took office two weeks earlier than expected in June and jumped into the yearly audit, trudging through budget investigations for three months straight. Outside the office, Schulz continued to spend time on campus, familiarized himself with the people of the university and said he enjoyed dining locally at places like della Voce and So Long Saloon. The day before Schulzls inauguration, Sept. 23, the Schulz family hosted a university-wide ice cream social, serxdng 3,000 containers of Call Hall ice cream to connect with students in an informal setting and involve them more in the inauguration process.

It was a lot of fun, a busy day and the kind of thing I will certainly look back upon as one of the highlights of my career.

'tAr't is both expression and communication, Schuler said. On one hand, artists express who they are, sometimes in a profoundly deep way. But art also communicates a worldview. Just under the surface of any painting or song or poem is a perception of reality. With Print:Relief, we not only trained our employees artistically, but also holistically. We wanted them to understand that they can dream in loud voices, and that worldview deeply shapes the direction of life. The writers at They Only Come Out at Night and our employees in Africa are actually quite similar. lt doesn't matter what your soci: status is or where you live.

Verreos stressed how difficult it was to break into the fashion industry, and encouraged new designers to always say Ayes to anything they were asked to do - it may seem like busy work, but in the end it was what would help them rise to the top.

' k-state project runw ay ll 37 by Lauren Goclcen come clo BI' If you're fully open to secrets, at the core, theres a kernel of vvnsdorn that you can really grow from. Each afternoon when Frank Warren opened his mailbox, secrets were revealed to him in different ways, some artistic, some strange - on a postcard with wedding bands taped to it, on a fast food bag, on death certificates, even on a one-pound bag of coffee. Warren, who deemed himself the most trusted stranger in America, had collected secrets on postcards since Jan. 1, 2005. Warren toured the country to talk about PostSecret, and the Union Program Council sponsored his visit to campus Oct. 26. Over the course of the program, he talked about why he started the project, showed some secrets banned from his books, shared some of his personal thoughts on secrets and led an informal secret- sharing session where students could stand up to a microphone, in front of hundreds of their peers and reveal their secrets. Frank was not only hilarious, but he inspired you to think beyond your problems and consider those of others, Ashley A. Heptig, sophomore in life sciences, said. I felt like I was in on something greater than me and being there was The rules to mailing in a secret were SIIIIFIBZ the secret had to be comp etely true, never shared with anyone else and contain no copyri hted material. Secrets coul be mailed to Warren's address: 38m student life very humbling. Warren said that in Hebrew, secret meant come closer, then he invited people up to share their secrets. Once invited to share their secrets, people slowly wandered up to the two microphones in the middle of the room. One person told off an ex-boyfriend. One shared a painful story about getting deployed. One talked about how she appreciated her mother so much more after she became a mother herself. The amount of courage it must have taken for those students to get up in front of such a large crowd was amazing, Bridget Kennedy, sophomore in kinesiology, said. I wish I had that same courage. Now I can't wait to send in my secret. The PostSecret project started by handing random people blank postcards to filled out and returned with a secret written on it. After the original set of cards were returned, Warren continued receiving secrets, from around the world ul tapped into something that had been there the whole time, Warren said.

She saw that they were hiring so she told e about it because I have a lot of history with outing, Attwater said. I've worked at a summer amp for six summers now, and I've always done ipes courses and stuff through Boy Scouts. I ewed it as being a counselor, at the time, for a apes course, and I thought, 'Yeah, that'd be so tuch fun. ' Attwater had only been in school for two weeks hen he began working as a facilitator for the tallenge course. He completed training over Labor ay weekend in fall 2007, becoming part of the econd group to lead the ropes course. The challenge nurse employed eight to 10 students at a time. As a facilitator, we are responsible for the safety ?the group, Attwater said. We basically run the Jurse. We set up the different elements and guide re people through them. After they do the element id finish the challenge, we lead a group discussion hich we call a debrief, and we just kind of go over hat they learned from that challenge and what Qey took away from it. l The purpose of the course was to allow groups to participate in team-building activities. Participants worked in small groups to form solutions and overcome challenges to each individual element, or station. The course was designed to teach trust, communication, planning and problem solving. Dtuing the previous three years, Attwater had facilitated many groups and observed different reactions. 'Tve learned a lot about different roles that people can take, because doing it, you see different people stepping up to take leadership at different times, he said. uAt the same time, you see them show their true colors - their strengths and weaknesses - and you really get a feel for how a group dynamic works. I've been able to observe a lot of different groups. Some of them have crashed while others have succeeded really well. It's really interesting to see how well groups do. While some groups signed up enthusiastically, others were required to be there because they were by Stephanie Mikugs part of a larger organization. Regardless of the participants' attitudes, Attwater said as facilitator of the group, he always tried to make the experience positive and fun. I don't think I've ever had a group come away with a negative attitude, he said. There have probably been some instances where they didn't have as much fun on one part of it as the other, but I've never really seen a group not be pleased. i e were taking the baseball team to one event called 'team trail.' lt consists of walking across lvvire, then walking across a longer vvire and then walking over a swinging log and then a swing nd then another element and its all connected. You have to hold on to your teammates the ntire .time and you can't let go of each other. They were having a lot ot trouble on the part of it yith the longer vvire. Their solution vvas to take their shirts oft and use their shirts to extend their Bach. So vve had all these half-naked baseball players crossing this vvire and vve're just like - fell it it works for you. Because that's one of the cool things about it, is that it really gives people chance to expand their creativity. Like vve didn't say you couldn't use your shirts, so they did. bk Attwaterg junior in English nick attwater II43 W ,I .99 1 N 1' Q K 9 nk ew 1 ' . Q 1 A , , ,, I 'tie xi G ' 'x 1 1,95 A--M . ...

' ,J ,,,,,1M, ' fb Jn ,Jr W' NW, M it by Tamara Salisbury Tuesday night at 1709 Vaughn Dr. meant one thing: Bike Night. The weekly ritual started as a way to share faith and build a community around David Adkins' and his roommates' passion for bikes. When Adkins, junior in kinesiology, and his roommates moved into the house on Vaughn Drive in May, they built a bike shop in the garage and started inviting people over on Tuesday nights for dinner. ln college, people are looking for commtmity, looking for other people with common interests, looking for transportation or something exciting to do in their free time, Adkins said. This is something that can meet multiple needs Within one setting. Adkins said one goal of Bike Night was to share Christ's love by example. We believe that through this, people will see what Christ has done in us, Adkins said. We aren't naturally people who Want to give our time and the things We have, our food and our money. lt's been a change that happened because of the gratefulness We have for the fact that Christ died for us, that we realized apart from him We are lost. Bike Night allowed people to come, eat and receive help in fixing or building a bike for free. The group also fixed donated bikes and sold them for a low price. Cody Hill, Manhattan resident, said people were often surprised at the generosity shown by the group. We're Working on bikes for free, offering people a free meal, Hill said. uPeople don't understand Why We do that. We tell them again and again, it's not our stuff, We care about others and We Want to provide for others. People are baffied by the fact that a bunch of college students Want to get together once a Week and Work on bikes for free and offer up a pretty good meal. Christie Coffman, senior in fine arts, said she thought the group was popular With college students because bikes are an active exercise that was fun and not as tedious as other bike nights l 45 I Tnat's been sonwetbing tbat's been really neat to see, tne relationsnips tbat nave been built beyond our college-age friends.

David Adkins, junior in kinesiology 46lH st udeut lill- A big thing I've had to learn in trying to workouts. She also said she saw the group as a way to share her passion for her faith. MI think it's a really cool way to minister to the community, like to the kids out in the garage, and get to know i'Taking on the dynamic of the leadership role has been something that's been really challenging, Adkins said. I tend to not like speaking in front of people or being direct with people at certain times. people in the neighborhood, 6 6 and from different groups l,Ve Seen on campus, Coffman said. I think it's a great way to more OT connect with a bunch of 'FOCUS Om Ilvmg different people. COVTIYTIUIWEIIIV, Both Adkins and Hill said and focusing they could see a change in the mOfe QD people who came, including a Other people few friends who had professed throughout the a newfound faith in Christ. Week not just Coffman also said she saw a ' change in herself. on Tuesday uI've seen more of a focus mghts- on living comrnunally, and C137-jggjjg Cgffmany focusing more on other people ggnigr jnflng ang throughout the week, not just fulfill our obligation in sharing Christ's heart to the people around us, l've had to learn to take on responsibility for myself and my own actions. For Adkins, one place he looked to learn about leadership was the 17th book of the New Testament in the Bible, Titus. 'tWe've been reading through chapters in Titus, where it talks about the roles of leaders and taking those very seriously, Adkins said. t'According to what God has said, we don't have the right to speak the truth if we on Tuesday nights, she said. Some of my closest friends now are people I didn't even know last year. Hill said the tight-knit community also helped him through some personal crises, one of which was the death of his best friend. The biggest thing was these guys here kept saying first and foremost you need to pray, you need to read your Bible, that's the only thing that will keep your head on your shoulders, he said. Then they said start working on bikes, take some time for yourself and go on bike rides. That was huge. I began to realize that if I don't read my Bible and if I'm not doing that stuff my whole day's out of whack. Hill added that he saw a new L'boldness in himself and his willingness to talk about his faith after the conversations with the people at Bike Night. Adkins said he also saw a personal growth when it came to his leadership skills. dont live that truth, if we're not disciplined ourselves. He sets it up very clearly: we're not supposed to be hypocritical in our speech or in otu' actions. We can't claim to be speaking truth about Christ Lmless we're living that truth. Since the beginning of Bike Night in the summer, Adkins said he had seen a growth in attendance, attitudes and a need for expansion. However, once they focused on what mattered - the community atmosphere - the night became more relaxed and more of what it needed to be. The first few weeks I remember just being really chaotic, Adkins said. We were trying to get dinner ready. We had never really done the bike shop thing before - we didn't have adequate tools or work space. And then we began to realize this is about community, this is about relationships, not about pumping out as many bikes as we can or giving away a bunch of stuff. bike nights M47 GS UCB En the A Ti' H 0' by Anna Kearns I, Q... . ..

She talked about school rivalry, politics and Facebook. by Colleen Quinn. Outside the K-State Student Union on a cold Monday night in February, the entrance by the parking garage was deserted. Inside Forum Hall, however, jokes and laughter filled the room. The opening act, Mary Rene, joked about being friends with people on Facebook just to make fun of them. Following her was the main act for the night, comedian Loni Love. Union Program Council sponsored the comedy acts Feb. l. t'My boyfriend invited me, Karen Liebentritt, sophomore in apparel and textiles, said. I wanted a break from homework, and l've been to see a few other comedians here and to the movies a few times. It's free. Once Love took the stage, she began with a simple but effective, ttFuck KU! The crowd roared with laughter and applauded her. She then called out each individual class and poke fun at them once they cheered for their respective year. There was a group of four of us that attended a conference in Texas, and we saw Loni perform and knew she would be a great fit for K-State, Chris J. Wallace, entertainment conunittee member and senior in psychology, said. ul met with our co-chair, and we decided to book her. The crowd laughed at almost every joke or insinuation Love made. Just minutes into her act, she was in control of the crowd. I wanted to have a good laugh, Alan Chinery, sophomore in park management and conservation, said. 'tl wanted to spend time with my girlfriend, that's her Valentineis Day present. Love discussed everything from politics to body issues women dealt with. She said her manager put her on the Slim Fast diet, and those shakes go great with hamburgers and beer. Her full figure was the butt of many of her jokes. While she was on a roll, she joked the only advice she could give a college student was It's better to cheat than to repeat. She then reinforced the fact that it was ajoke, and it was important to get an education. Love wrapped up her act by inviting men and women from the audience up to the stage. The men had to use pickup lines on the women and vice versa, and at the end there was an American Idol spoof. We thought the crowd was wonderful, Wallace said. We thought the performance was wonderful, and everyone seemed to enjoy it. loni lox e ll 51 ' I like the big, huge stuff. u The makeup and hair artists.

Mat Blake, owner ot Jack Knife Studios and F sophomore in mass communications 52 ll student life portrait by Lisle Ald grandfather inspires studio's name Mat Blake's grandfather, Jack, Was an important part of the studio's history. When I was little, he would always tell us a story about how his mother would give him a brand new pocketknife when he was little, he said. And he would always go to his grandfather and he'd trade it for one of his grandfathens older pocketknives, because he Wanted a pocketknife that was his grandfathefs. He didn't necessarily want the new shiny one, he Wanted one that actually meant something. Blake said he learned how to do business from his grandfathefs knife-trading story. As long as both sides of the deal are happy it's a good business deal, he said. pazsszonw . Qnda profession It started as a hobby, turned into a passion and became a business. Mat Blake, owner of Jack Knife Studios and sophomore in mass communications, balanced his life, his business and his love of photography all while attending school. Blake attended Glendale Community College in Arizona, where he earned his digital media technology degree and did photography as a hobby, though it soon developed into Jack Knife Studios. Blake started his studio in Phoenix, Ariz., in January 2005, then he reclocated and opened its doors in Manhattan Oct. 1. Although he said he enjoyed what he did, Blake admitted going to school and running his own studio was demanding. It's pretty much wake up, K-State, lunch, studio and then go to sleep, Blake said. It's very time- consuming to do both at the same time. I do a lot of homework in fthe studioj in between photo shoots, I study for tests a lot in here. It hasn't been too difficult yet, but it's just a lot of time. Jack Knife Studios, the most affordable portrait studio in the area, according to the studio's advertising, was geared toward senior and family portraits. We do anything that has to do with people, he said. 'LWe also do corporate photography, marketing material and product photography, stuff like that. But the majority of what we do is people photography. Blake also used his space as a design studio. Designing allowed Jack Knife Studios to keep prices down. Our design clients are throughout the United States, so that really helps us keep our photography prices incredibly low, he said. All of our marketing material we do ourselves, and then we've done some logos for some companies. Anything that you can see, on a screen or on paper, we can design. Blake hired his brother, Zach Droge, junior in fine arts, to help with the workload. They would both create a design and then chose the design they preferred to show the client. His plans for expansion were extensive, including aspirations for more large-scale projects and growth in Manhattan. I would like to have a huge photography studio, where I could do not only national design work, but national photography work, he said. I would like to bring what I learned in California and what I learned in New York, I want to bring that here. Years, years, years down the road, I'd like to make Manhattan the fashion photography capital of the Midwest. I want people to want to come here. Blake also said he felt he was lucky to have his own studio. Some days I wish that I wasn't doing both at the same time, and then other days I'm really glad that I can do it, he said. First of all, not a lot of people my age have a studio, as much as they'd like one. Yeah, I'm taking a huge risk with my future for the next 10 years. But it's what I wanted to dof, For Blake, photography was more than a picture - it was a special opportunity. The thing I like most about photography is that it is really the only chance you'll ever get to see what l'm seeing at a particular moment in timef' he said. There are pictures, and then there's art - there's a difference. I love photography, whether it's my photography or someone else's, because you're getting to see what someone else sees exactly the way they wanted to see it, at that exact time. And you can't really do that anywhere else. Paintings are great, illustrations are great, but they're not real. Photography for the most part is real, and it was a real moment in time. mat blake ll 53 category: potluck anything goes on tri za nl ht by Tamara Salisbury g It was about 7 p.1n. on a Wednesday, and a couple of students arrived at Auntie Mae's Parlor in Aggieville. Already, the good tables by the TV and emcee's microphone were taken, so the students settled in at the next-best table and waited. Soon, a whiteboard was brought to the table. Bryce Williams, senior in engineering, Matt McR0berts, sophomore in biologyg Josh Yewell, junior in athletic training, Ginny Vogels, junior in secondary education, Andrew Shain, junior in history, and Brandon Vaille, junior in kinesiology, all paid the S5 entry fee. Vogels wrote In Ur Wife at the top, instead of In Ur Mom, which had been the team name nearly every Wednesday before. The team was ready. It was Trivia Night at Auntie Mae's, a tradition that was nearing its sixth-year anniversary. Jeff Denney, owner, said the event had been popular since the beginning, though he was uncertain why that was. It has remained steady no matter what was going on, he said. We always have a steady crowd of people. I'm not sure if it's just a break from school or what. It's almost like a board game kind of night, a get together with your friends and have a few drinks. Though people started arriving around 7 p.m., the trivia game did not start until 8, and questions did not begin until 8:30. Once it was game on, a different atmosphere overtook the previously chatty bar. Heads turned toward Jeff Kreuser, Manhattan resident, as he took the emcee's mic and began the game. 54 ll student life www, J mm ,Q U vw W' vw 1 Q Q -2: : 1, fy iff' wh, if 7 zfwgn ' Q wwf' 'X 5 his M 4 U Q .

Each team got a turn answering a question from the category of their choosing. lf they answered correctly, the team got 100 points. If they answered incorrectly, the other teams got a chance to earn 50 points by writing the correct answer on their whiteboard. However, once each round, the original team could choose to smack another team, forcing the other team to answer. If the smacked team members answered correctly, they won 200 points. If they answered incorrectly, the original team was awarded the 200 points. People are pretty hesitant to smack us, Yewell said. We have seven people and all that combined knowledge, plus, we look like a pretty smart team. In Ur Wife started well, only trailing TV Roles and Dogs in Film, dealt with pop culture, and the group fared well with most of these categories. When the question was, 'tWhat are the nicknames of all five Spice Girls? Shain perked up. 'LI got this, guys, he said. 'LFirst concert I ever went to. Though the trivia game taught the group random facts, they were not sure how much it helped their college careers. In fact, a few of the group members said they downloaded random trivia applications to their iTouches or iPhones and used that to distract themselves from boring, lectures. They saw Trivia Night as a break from studying. 'Andrew has an oral exam at 8:30 tomorrow morning, Vogels said, laughing. It's French. I don't know French. Je m'appelle... Shain answered. by a few points behind Detachable Penis Je nfappelle drunkass, that's what it at the end of the first round. Categories included general knowledge, pop culture, and one category called Potluck was completely random. Categories like Gwyneth Paltrow, The year is 2002!, 56 m student life should be, Yewell countered. As the evening progressed, and full pitchers left the table empty, the team became bolder and louder, and the questions got harder. MWe need to wait to get drunk until the second round, guys, Vogels had warned an hour earlier. The group laughed and ignored her, however, ordering more drinks and pitchers, but through the second round, the team struggled. By the final trivia question, they were paying for that decision. The team was down 750 points to Sniffin' Dicks. They decided it was all or nothing, wagering all 1900 of their points on the final question in the MNetwork TV category. 'tThis is sloppy, guys, Vogels said. Vi need to pull it together. When Kreuser went up to the whiteboard to write the final question, a hush fell over the bar. Though it had been eerily quiet several times previously, this five-minute period was the most intense. The groups were searching for the answer to the final question: Since fthe network'sj first airing in 1986, name three of the five primetime TV shows that have run the most seasons on FOX. Usually it all comes down to the finz questionf' Denney said.

The ushering in of 2010 would probably not be remembered for the large Iireworks show, two live bands or the blue moon, but for the unusually low temperatures. With a low of 5 degrees, most of the crowd stayed in the bars or in their homes until 11:30 p.m. Several people braved the cold for hours before midnight to help local police officers with security on Moro Street. Starting at 6 p.m., they set up barricades and gates to control the crowds, historically in excess of 10,000, while helping keep open containers off the street. Logan Peelen, junior in family studies and human services, gave up parties to work. It is my first time working security in Aggievillef' Peelen said. alt pays well, and lots of my friends work heref' After setting up the barricades, the security staff traded between keeping patrons off the barricades in the freezing temperatures and warming up inside Varney's Bookstore, the home base for the staff. As the clock ticked closer to midnight, and the streets became more crowded, the entire staff went outside to maintain security checkpoints. Amanda Elrod, senior in mass communications, watched the ball drop from the west end of Moro Street. There are always drunks stumbling around, but if something broke out there were guards on every buildings corner, and they could respond quickly, she said. Everyone was drinking and in a good mood. Although the crowds were smaller than in previous years, activity still kept the staff busy. While scanning the crowd, Peelen said he hoped there would be enough activity to keep warm, but nothing too serious. t'No bombs or anything, I just hope to keep it exciting, he said. Only minor events were reported, and event organizers said the turnout was larger than expected, especially considering the sub-freezing temperatures. After the ball dropped and fireworks lit up the sky, resolutions were made and kisses were given, the crowds returned to the warmth of the bars or home to continue the celebration. 'Tm not 21 yet, so I only came for the ball drop, Lauren Beeman, junior in marketing, said. It was pretty cold, but my friends and I bundled up before we came.

Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night, weather permitting, when the clock struck ll p.m., one pizza stand went up outside the bar to serve the crowds in Aggieville. For 51.25, any passerby could pick up a slice. t'At one point fthere was an ordinance thatl you had to have a certain percentage of your total gross receipt in food sales, Jesse Clingan, manager, said. If you had a bar in Aggieville or anywhere in Manhattan, you had to have some sort of food source. We started doing pizza, and ever since that rule was amended, we've just been doing it out of tradition because it goes over pretty well. O'Malley's pizza slinging started out as a way to comply with the city ordinance but continued long after the law was dropped. Clingan said the tradition continued because people were used to it and because curbside pizza became part of the bar's weekend atmosphere. Waitress Jessica Schwalm, sophomore in agricultural economics, said the convenience and location was what kept the tradition going. Schwalm said being in the center of Aggieville helped the business and its customers. lt helps them sober up a little bit and helps them get home safer, Schwalm said. Alot of times if they are in groups, if there is one person who is drunker than another, their friends will buy them pizza. Schwalm had waitressed at the bar for more than a year and said her pizza nights always had interesting events, like seeing a man tasered and arrested or seeing people wearing clothing not suited for the weather. You are always going to have people who aren't going to like Cpizza salesj, but for the most part everyone thinks it's convenient, she said. They like it, enjoy it and I can recognize people who come back. Regardless ofthe toppings - pepperoni, hamburger or sausage - Schwalm said Aggieville patrons needing food to counterbalance alcohol consumption orjust food for a late night snack took advantage of the low prices and convenience. Whether they were college students, Manhattan residents, Fort. Riley soldiers or out-of-towners, she said the pizza was worth the cost. 'This pizza fucking rocks, Eric Vance, Fort Riley soldier, said. It's great drunk pizza. Itfs easy, fast, convenient and it's cheap. pizza stand li 61 62 Ill student life by Tamara Salisbury LK Ob ervanee Week Continuing a tradition from the '80s, Alpha Phi Alpha sponsored a walk, candlelight vigil and speaker in memory of Martin Luther King Jr. Jan. 19. A hot chocolate reception followed, sponsored by the School of Leadership Studies. fThe walkj is a reminder of how we can peacefully march today without worry or fear, said Brandon I.. Clark, Alpha Phi Alpha district director and non-degree graduate student. It recreates walking during the civil rights movement in peaceful protest. Itis something the entire community can enjoy and spend two hours thinking and reflecting on the life of Dr. King. Toni 0wens, Alpha Kappa Alpha membership chair and senior in social sciences, said the night was more than reflection on the past, i1 also took action on the future. Every year at the candlelight vigil they ask to donate to the memorial Cbeing built in honor of King in Washington, D.C.j, but this year they asked everyone to give what they were going to give to Haiti, she said. Alpha Phi Alpha is going to match the donations ' and send it all to the Cearthquakej victims in Haiti. mg, ww s rf an . Y . ' f T .

It was really amazing to be noticed and to be able to put out how we feel and express everything that D11 King has done for us and black history and the progress we have made because of him, said Jeremy James, president of Alpha Phi Alpha and junior in social sciences. Actually he is a member of our fraternity and so of course that speaks to me more. Pm really excited and really glad to even share that much with him. Men of Alpha Phi Alpha light candles at the candle lighting ceremony.

Erin Poppe MLK week W 63 At the showing of The Witness: From the Balcony of Room 306, Damien Thompson, sophomore in life sciences, watches as the last hours of Martin Luther King Jr. are retold. Since it was about Martin Luther King, I knew it was going to be powerful, he said. I like that it showed the life of Martin Luther King as a preacher rather than an activist for civil rights. It gave more insight into the murder and what the media didn't tell us. Chelsy Lueth rediscovered bond 0 disclosed at matmee The eyes of nearly 200 viewers gazed up at two projection screens in the Alumni Center displaying the Lorraine Motel. The Witness: From the Balcony of Room 306 retold Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination through the testimonies of those with him that day. Amidst audio clips of King, the Rev. Samuel Billy Kyles detailed the weeks leading up to the shooting. As he stood on the balcony at the motel room and relived the historic shot, the silence of the audience iilled the room. Afterward, the emcee asked the audience to take a deep breath with him as the intensity of the end of the iihn, fueled by Kyles' words The dream is still alive, subsided. Attendees took something away from the film Jan. 21. The thing that stood out to me most was that Dr. King had a lot of strong personality traits and attributes, such as his speaking 64 lll student life skills, his Ph.D. at 28 fyears oldj, the Nobel Peace Prize at a young age also - the youngest to get it at that time, said Jeremy James, Alpha Phi Alpha president and junior in social sciences. He could have done a lot of things, but he was working for the people, and not just any people - he put his life on the line for trash workers. I could be doing everything for myself, but Dr. King did something for a small group of h workers, for a trash company, and that really speaks to me, that he was working so hard for the people. At the close of the matinee showing of The Witness: From the Balcony of Room 306, Myra Gordon, associate provost for diversity and dual career development, spoke about the surprise she had about Martin Luther King Jn and the university Gordon said an alumnus had contacted her about a document he had spotted in the Atlanta Journal- Constitution as part of a collection .V . ,ml au'- A 3 g s m. .WMU owned by llarry Belafonte, singel and a friend of King. In the collectio which was being auctioned through Sotheby's, was a document relating directly to the university. One of the papers came from King's coat pocke1 the day he died, and on it, King had written the names of four men who were tied to the speech he had given at the university four months before - the last university he spoke at before his death. Among the names the alumnus had recognized was then-President James McCain. This one piece of paper, with handwritten notes, was in his coat pocket, at the second of his passing, she said. This piece of paper in the coat pocket of Dr. King with the names of all these K-State people in it means that we were on the balcon of room 306. K-State was there. Toni 0wen.s,A Alpha Kappa Alpha membership chair and senior in sociaQ sciences, said she felt the connection between the university and King even trough the dijference of more than 9 years. It's hard to put into words Chow feeD, she said. It makes it more pecial - I don't even know if that's me right word -just knowing nat K-State was in the mind of Dr. lartin Luther King when he passed way It really opened my eyes to taking his dream continue on after e passed away To close, Gordon left the audience ith one final thought. v It is the most amazing thing tat our alumnus would have seen , would have been old enough to ecognize these names, she said. I-Iow many people in Atlanta, on ny given day, read the Journal- onstitution? Millions. But they on't know these names.

I really have focused on embodying that and directed myself toward being a contemporary woman that people can look up to. 'l - Becki Ronen, Miss Kansas 2009 and senior in applied music, in an interview on TLC Standing on stage, dressed in her evening gown and surrounded by the other contestants, Becki Ronen anxiously waited to hear the results of the Miss Kansas 2009 Pageant. ul was standing there, and they announced I won after the top ten, and I was thinking I didn't win, but I represented myself and my community, said Ronen, Miss Kansas 2009 and senior in applied music. I was in total shock. Right after they called my name, I looked out off the runway, and it was an emotional moment. After she won, she did not have much time to take it all in. She gave her family and friends a quick hug and headed to a cocktail party. She said it finally sank in when she had a moment to slow down. I was washing my face and looked in the mirror, and I was wearing my crown, I couldn't take it off, she said. uIt's exciting because you work so hard to get to that position. Ronen began competing in pageants when she was 19. In the Miss Kansas 2008 Pageant she received third runner up. While she had not grown up competing, she said she got to know many of the previous Miss Kansas because her mother was the producer for the Miss Kansas organization. As a young girl, Ronen said she was quite shy, but playing trumpet - her talent in the pageant - helped her become more confident. When I was little, I was shy and wouldn't talk unless you talked to me first, she said. I looked at my shoes when walking down the hall. That progressed until sixth grade when I picked up the trumpet. It boosted my confidence and helped me feel like I fit in. Now I'm majoring in trumpet performance, and I'm very confident and sure of myself. I credit all of it to being in the arts. To help her prepare for the competition, she practiced interviewing skills by talking to people about hot topics at roundtables, and she worked out with a trainer for the swimsuit and dress portions of the pageant. Ronen said the competition was not just about the glitz and glamour. Miss America is focused on intelligent women, she said. Forty-five million dollars is given to passionate, well-rounded women who have the desire to give back to their community. It's an awareness issue, people don't know how much money is given for any college you Want to go to. It's a great way to prepare women for life. It helped me be a better interviewer and has given me money so I can continue school. After winning Miss Kansas, she became the billboard for the organization. She spoke at schools to motivate children, helped with fundraising and recruitment and did magazine shoots. She then participated in the Miss America Pageant Jan. 30. There are 52 other candidates, and when you get that far everyone is exceptional, Ronen said. 'Tm focused on being the best Becki I can be. I'm going to let the chips fall the way they are going to fall. miss kansas 2009 H71 72 Il student life CHANCE T0 During the Islamic month of Ramadan, Muslims around the world fasted during daylight hours to bring themselves closer to Allah and to purify and strengthen their souls. 'This month teaches us patience, Fida Ullah, student in the American Culture Studies Program, said. You see the food in front of you, yet you know not to eat it. It makes us stronger mentally. It makes us more pure, and it brings us closer to Allah. Ramadan began Aug. 21 in accordance with the first crescent moon sighting after the eighth month on the Islamic calendar and ended when the next crescent moon was spotted. Muslims across campus gathered food in the dining halls during dinnertime and patiently waited for the sun to set so they could begin to eat. t'We come, we get our food and then once the sun goes down we pray, and then we begin to eat. Ullah said. It becomes pretty difficult not to eat sometimes, but we know it makes us better. It gives us a chance to reevaluate our lives and develop more of an appreciation for our god. I am 22 years old, and I understand I won't live forever, all I have is Allah. Muslims viewed Ramadan as an opportunity to prosper as human beings. The purpose of this tradition was not to separate or isolate but to bring all together, Muddasir Ali, student in the American Culture Studies Program, said. This is a time of great celebration for us, Ali said. It allows us to understand and appreciate life and also other people. It can allow us all to come together and recognize how much we have to struggle sometimes to get to where we want. Ramadan officially ended Sept. 19 in the U.S. It allowed students of all backgrounds to observe the practices of different cultures. Something could be taken from the month even for those who are non-Muslims, as Christopher Rangoolam, freshman in food science and industry, found. HI hadn't ever really noticed anyone celebrating Ramadan until I got to the university, Rangoolam said. 'AI thought that it was really interesting to be able to observe some of the rituals of people from other faiths. vu F Dried mms, such as figs, apricots and prunes are the sweets often mcluded IU might me-aNs during the Ramadam. No food was consumed durmg the day. Courresy of Meshaff Afrvaharf W Tamara Salisbury Episodes of American Idol were often filled with tearful contestants struggling with crushed dreams, it was difficult to imagine going through such pressure for a dream fulfilled for only a small number of contestants. Howeven Jessica Furney, freshman in music, went through it twice. I believe in persistency in pursuing what you want to do, she said. You're never going to get where you want, and your dream's not going to just fall -Plgffh in your lap. You have to go fight for it. After graduating from Wamego High School in 2007, Fm'ney went backpacking in Europe, postponed college to sing and live in Ireland for a yean When she retm'ned, she began caring for her 95-year-old grandmother and auditioned for Idol the first time. She made it through the first round of Hollywood week but went home with the advice to sing something people would recognize next time. It was a lot more difiicult finding songs that I enjoyed that had come out in the past year or two that I could sing that wouldn't be a complen contradiction of who I am, she said. I mean, Miley Cyrus is great, but I don't think that's an avenue I would want to go down. I'm not a bubblegmr pop princess. She auditioned for Idol in June in Denver, singing Footprints in the Sand, co-written by judge Simon Cowell. She was one of nearly 150 who went to Hollywood and one of 71 in the last round of Hollywood Week. It's really surreal when you get When swipped, 19111 just fi di'0'Cl??2lflt' struggling in a world ql'rec1.lities. 0 Y., I f A 9 .r E' ' -r V I .

I couldn't tell you how I did Ter I got done singing. You just stand mere, and you smile, and you hearg es,' and you're like, '0K, I'm good, aah? OK, I'll go novm ' Furney said she was then flown to :rs Angeles to film what she thought as the hardest part of the audition rocess. She said the experience was s eye opening as it was challenging. They make it as tense and stressful fr you as possible, just to see if you can stand the tension, she said. And you're not just in a small town with cameras, you're on a huge stage in the Kodak Theatre, and you're just a little, itty-bitty person, trying to do something for yourself in the eight seconds you have to sing. You see people crying because we get two hours of sleep at night, and we're working all the time, and under that kind of pressure, you just break over anything. And tempers fly because you're with these people all day long, every day They completely control the situation so they can get what they want for the TV show. Though Furney said her experience was frustrating but positive, she said she did not plan on auditioning again. After auditioning this year and getting so much farther and seeing so much more - be that good or bad - it would be really hard for me to go back, she said. To put myself through that again would not be my first choice of pursuing this dream. You never know, I didn't think I'd audition again after last year. portrait by Lisle Alderton Americaen Idol, Sensor: 9, Episode 10 The 36 remaining contestants - including Jessica Furney, freshman in music - went tothe KodakTheatre, where judges revealed final cuts before the live shows began. In the last five minutes of the episode, Fumey faced the judges. Her perfonnances had impressed the paneI, host Ryan Seacrest said, but her defining moment came group night as the 'Parkettes' butchered 'Sweet Escape' Iby Gwen Stefanilf' A clip showed Fumey asking the judges to let her sing her part, since they cut her group off early. She nailed it.Then Judge Randy Jackson delivered the news: she did not make the cut. Fumey, however, did not go without a fight. PIease, she said, I know I can do better.You guys have no idea. It sounds pathetic to beg up here, but you guys, seriously, I have this in me.You guys have no idea what I can do.The passion in me, and the drive - it is unbelievable, just please see that. I can do this. Do not send me home. I have it. When she asked what she did wrong, Cowell was blunt. You didn't sing as well as the others, he said. Even that was not enough for Fumey. She had lost her voice: she had worked with a group that could not Ieam the words. This is not the end of the road for your career, judge Ellen DeGeneres said. How do you know that? You don't know that, Fumey said, near tears. The judges reassured her at once. Show me that you believe in yourself and say, 'Nothing can stop me, I'm going to get mine one way or anothen ' Jackson said. At that point, Cowell cut them off and sent Fumey offstage and back home. american idol m 75 X i ,:M'rf M'WMl. fl WW l W ., ,N W l m,,,,,,,,,,,.W'l ywwvizrglm 'MW 1' , wt ,WWW -' 'Z J i' AZ? x W ' ,.,,,, , iT 'J' 'l ll l jf ,Wt 'ff W, yu W Q., J W ,l W ,, I V, g I I I. by Colleen Quum W M ij, if Eigwvmmmq N Q wW1mf,,,j,i W W Wm., lf V ' v M' ,' , r 1 r 'rr V ,K I v y W ,O ,jf i ,A LM wW,,,,, , ,V 1 , Wmmwll ffff imtiifwl Wlmzwlftm Um' 5 f f ' 7 6m student life li li 1 Another week of school passed- friends paranoid about contracting swine flu were forgotten and the possibility of Winning 350,000 Was just over the horizon.

Mahan and Rogers said finding a location was difficult. They decided they Wanted to have it in Lawrence so both University of Kansas and K-State students could participate. The month leading up to the event, we were constantly in Lawrence in between our classes, Mahan said. We were handing out flyers and just getting the word out. Finally, after a year of planning, 24 teams showed up for a chance to head to Vegas and hit it big. Each team was guaranteed three games during the preliminary round, and after the prelims, .

Siffiififlatibh Several lay wounded. Some scrambled to get out with their lives. Others stood in awe trying to record the events of the recent devastation. A disaster simulation was held twice a year to test the Fort Riley troops' ability to react properly in an emergency situation. For the simulation on Sept. 24, eight Mass Communications students participated. The Digital News class played victims in the tragedy while the advanced Digital News class reported on the events that took place. They got an idea of how disasters can happen, said Ginger Loggins, instructor of the digital news and advanced digital news courses. They could see how the media handled the situation. Volunteers helped with the simulation, including soldiers and some civilians. Elizabeth Fanning, senior in social sciences, played a victim in the simulation as a part of Digital News. The victims got prepared for their roles in advance by receiving a card telling them of their condition and how they were to play out their roles. They arrived a few hours early to have fake blood and, in some cases, glass put on them for their wounds. Though Fanning's character had a piece of glass stuck in her arm, she was stable. Her card told her to run around complaining of pains in her arm. The victims were rushed to Irwin Army Community Hospital on the base, and their wounds were cared for by nurses and doctors. 'Ll was really excited when l realized that we were actually going to get wounds and everything, Fanning said. 'tAnd then I was also really excited at the fact that they even took us to the hospital. In addition to victims, there were students who played other roles like reporters. For videographer Bryan Dannar, senior in mass communications, equipment included a small, digital video camera and a microphone as he walked around with the film anchor interviewing people trying to get the inside scoop on the disaster. For the most part, they did not have to do much preparation for their role because they did not know what to expect. ln a situation like that you don't have time to prepare, Dannar said. You just go out there and start working, see what happens. Students interviewed paramedics, military doctors and students playing the victims. lt proved to be a bit of a challenge for Dannar and the crew to get the information they needed. AA lot Cof the intervieweesj didn't really Want to talk to us, or a lot of them were too busy to talk to us, too, Dannar said. Although the atmosphere was frantic, Dannar said the experience was realistic. Everyone is trying to work and we're kind of there to get in the way and shove a camera in their face to see what's going on, Dannar said. 'Ll think it just kind of helped because it wasn't a set-up interview. We're just going and getting people in the moment. The ones who did talk to us gave good answers just because they don't have time to think of what they are going to say. They just throw it out there and it's usually pretty good stuff. Dannar said he walked away from the event with a new outlook on reporting and what it would take to report in a real disaster of that sort. tilt really is an eye-opener as to how chaotic it is even when it was fake, he said. I just kind of get a new respect for the people who have to go out there to these unplanned events and try to make sense of it all with little to work with. They don't tell you much and you've got to put it in to something to air on TV. disaster simulation In 89 .v.z I, , ooo .. I 'K R ll-around effort . ays off in nation l mp etition T .

We wanted something that primarily exemplified community living. On the site would be a diverse mix of activities, uses, ages and races. The development would provide most of the basic necessities that people would need, including transportation, employment opportunities, homes, recreation, entertainment, schools and other goods and services. The site forms a nexus, drawing from surrounding art, education and research communities. Bryan Zundel, graduate student in landscape architecture They only had 15 days to develop rough outlines of designs, make it through the first judging round of a national competition and put the university's five-year masters program on the map. Long days and sleepless nights became the team's routine, but it paid off, in more ways than one. John Perry, graduate student in landscape architecture, turned his master's project and report for his department into a point of national recognition for the university. His team took second place out of 90 teams in the 90 ll academics Urban Land Institutes Gerald D. Hines Student Urban Design Competition, earning a 810,000 cash prize. 'After selection as one of the four finalist teams, we were given an additional month to expand and refine our original design, Perry said. The most difficult part was developing a scheme that responded to the complexity of the site in a relevant and meaningful way within such a short time frame. Perry and his team of Bryan Zundel, graduate student in regional and community planning, Anthony Fox, senior in landscape architecture, Chris Morton, senior in landscape N S .J i , architecture, and Junbin Feng, graduat student in business administration, worked together to design a project that focused on redeveloping 75-acres south of downtown Denver from a suburban retail center into a vibrant, high-density, mixed-use urban development. Each stage required an unbelievable amount of work, Zundel said. We pretty much lived and breathed this project. The days were long.

To Perry, the dedication and M6 brought recognition to the university in a whole new way. Our landscape architecture students and faculty have been nationally recognized for several decades, however, recognition by the ULI establishes our university and department in a new arena, said Stephanie A. Rolley, team co-adviser and professor of landscape architecturefregional and community planning. I think the team's accomplishment reflects the new possibilities presented with our persistence that Went into developing his master's project spoke volumes to the education available at the university. Being in the finalist group meant that the education received here at Kansas State has equipped us to deal with the complex challenges associated with real world design projects, Perry said. It also reinforced the belief that we hold here, that the work we do stands up against the best students from the top schools across the nation, and that Kansas State belongs in that group. architecture awards ll 91 Michael global inSDifQ1.i,a.!a .wk Walking into Michael Wesch's Introduction to Cultural Anthropology class in Umberger Hall 105, nothing appeared to be out of the ordinary. Students started filing in 15 minutes before class, and by the time class started, the lecture hall was nearly full, with only a few open chairs left. This would be normal except for one small detail - the class started at 8:30 in the morning. Wesch, assistant professor of sociology, anthropology and social work, used different tools to connect his lecture with real life, like YouTube 92 ll academics videos, world music and songs and stories from his experiences in Papua New Guinea. What we need to do, we need to inspire students, to help them, Wesch said. We need to make students who know how to make connections. It's no longer about making students just know about a bunch of stuff. Students need to see A, B and C and see how they're connected. They need to be able to bring them together in interesting ways and know how to make interesting content with it. Wesch showed YouTube videos often in class, and in part, YouTube was the catalyst for Weschls bit of fame in the educational and global community. ln the past two years, Wesch posted three videos, one with the help of 200 students, and all reached more than one million views as of October, with Web 2.0 reaching more than 10 million Views.

Tonatiuh Melgarejo, associate professor of human nutrition, and his partner, Annika Linde, research associate in human nutrition, were working when Linde turned around and paused. She was staring face-to-face with a 6-month-old white lion. Suddenly, the animal, a little larger than a Rottweiler, jumped towards her, grabbed her around the waist and bit her abdomen. The lion cub just Wanted to play, but he could have really hurt her, Melgarejo said. Now, she likes the scar because she says, 'How many people can say they were attacked by a white lion?

So we can 96 lll academics His scientific Curiosities led him to research what they ate, where they lived and what was around them. Beginning in 2003, he and a seven-member research team took seven trips to Africa to research hyenas in their natural habitat. Due to cost and the exhaustion of travel, the team decided to bring two hyena cubs back to Manhattan to study in captivity. After overcoming legal battles, two 8-week-old Spotted Hyenas, Smilla and Charlie, arrived in Kansas Jan. 27, 2009, at 2 a.m. For eight months, the researchers socialized with the hyenas, so they could enter the habitat safely an interact with the animals on a daily basi Now their behavior suggests they miss us when we are gone, Melgarejo said. We were out of town for a week, and the zoo told us they didn't sleep wel and they didn't eat very much. They alsc get excited to see us. But they are not pets, they are wild animals, so sometime While taking a break from her work day, Linde plays with several leopard cubs.

I was Jking at a lioness and her cub that are near us. When I sat there I realized vw beautiful and magnificent nature is. e couldn't make a noise or we would scare the animals, so we just sat there. I started getting this embracing feeling of nature as I was looking at the lions and the beautiful scene and the wildebeests, and I just started crying, and I didn't know why. What I realized was, this kind of land, it's ahnost like it talks to you. You just need to make some time and relax. I realized there was another kind of language and dimension, because if you sit in such a beautiful place, it was just full of harmony. Being alone with nature was one of the most powerful experiences I have had.

There's a scientist from Denmark, two Ph.D. students, a master's student, and two undergraduates. Courtesy of Melgarsio taught him about himself and about life, Melgarejo said. He plarmed to return to Africa in February to do more research and looked forward to talking with the people and being arotmd the animals. We can spend hours around animals, he said. When we are in Africa, we forget about absolutely everythingg we spend hours and hours with the animals. They have a white lion colony there.

The show iluded Smiley, the saber-tooth tiger, d Tony, the giant ll-foot tall T-Rex. iginning with the Devonian time riod C417 to 354 million years agoj, 3 production showed animals and iosaurs throughout history. Second-grader Garrison Funk, inhattan resident, said he had fun foughout the program. I learned that not all dinosaurs came im the same period, Funk said. His cousin, Katie Driscil, Manhattan Lident, brought him to the show. tHe really likes dinosaurs, so I thought this would be good for him, Driscil said. The show was not only for entertainment, it was an educational opportunity for McCain. The Mammoth Follies had curriculum connections to science, natural history and the arts, Todd Holmberg, executive director of McCain, said. Teachers were able to talk about those issues and study them in class, and it culminated with wa final performance. It enhanced the education of those children in those fields. Teachers from around the area found the production to be helpful for their students. LuAnn Lund, first-grade teacher at Olsburg Elementary School in Olsburg, Kan., said the school brought students to the show as a reward for doing well on state assessments, and she said they benefited from the experience. I think it gave them a better idea on what the dinosaurs were like and the size of fthe dinosaursjf' Lund said. This was not the first time McCain had sponsored shows like Mammoth Follies. Presentations in the past included Butterfly: Story of a Life Cycle, with the goal always being a better understanding of the subjects. We try to do one of those a year. The same company, Hudson Vagabond Puppets, last season, put on a show about the life cycle of the butterfly, Holmberg said. We bussed kids in from the Flint Hills region, and it was the same concept. Teachers received study guides before and talked about insects to their classes, then we brought it together with a show. Holmberg said it was a part of his job to offer educational programs to the surrounding schools. Part of the mission of whoever serves K-State is to engage the university community and to engage the community at large, Holmberg said. We're engaging people to advance knowledge. Students and teachers from local elementary schools watch puppets like Willie Mammoth and Terry the Pterodactyl, from Mammoth Follies, as they teach lessons about dinosaurs and other animals from history. More than 1,000 students attended the production, which explored historical and scientific facts and debunked several myths about dinosaurs.

His eant started to become reality when found out about a program called the mboseh Elephant Research Project, 1 independent research project in mboseli National Park in Africa. The Sowers knew learning Swahili would be important to accomplishing his dream. nGetting this experience with the language is an important step in me being able to feel comfortable among the Kenyan people and build relationships with them, he said. MOverall, it really has been a stepping stone to helping me with my childhood dream. The Swahili II course was small in the roject, founded in 1972, studied African fall semester, but the class size worked to ephants including their health, eating the students' advantages. abits and social habits. The class is small so we can work slowly or at our own pace, Sowers said. If we don't understand something, the professor goes over it more. We also feel more comfortable to speak up because the class is so small, you don't feel bad about slowing down other people. Sowers said he thought learning Swahili was worth the time and effort. It is difficult to master with such a different structure and character from English, he said.

I chose this costume to show myself to the university, he said. I liked having the students write on my 'wall' and 'view my profile pictures. ' The results of the costume contest were decided by a group ofjudges. Shaley Van Loenen, sophomore in business administration, dressed as University of Kansas football coach Mark Mangino took first place. Smethers said the Halloween party was a way to interact with the students ln a class like that, you have to mak it entertaining, he said. tilt keeps thing: light-hearted and helps the students relate to each other. Another method of communication Smethers employed was social networking.

'Will seeing my life, family, friends and photos make him think of me in a different way?' 'What will he think of me'?' But it wasn't like that at all.

That's pretty important. The focus was partially on the changes made on campus to keep the university on the leading edge of sustainability. Friday started with a keynote speaker, followed by a tour of the leadership building, which was applying for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification. The conference in the K-State Student Union attracted nearly 300 students and Kansans who were interested in learning more about sustainable practices. l've learned new things and broadened my understanding of sustainability, Les Kinsler, professor of engineering technology, said. I've always been a recycler, but sustainability is so much more than that. While education was an important aspect of the conference, Champion said it was important attendees left the conference with a plan of action. On Friday they formed working support groups 104 ll ac ademics by Caitlin M Burns so the effects of the conference extended past the weekend. Students were an important part of the weekend as well. We have a platform to educate the future leaders of the nation, Champion said. You will have to make changes. It's very important to help fthe studentsj. Schools and universities are the perfect place. The conference had several panel discussions so people could ask questions and learn more about other people's efforts. Between sessions, attendees could browse posters in the main concourse, Each poster had additional information about ways to get involved. 'tl think this kind of conference can give you more than you'll get in your classes, Champion said. t'Students are always the energy of higher education. When students are around, it changes the nature of the conversation. Without students it's more technical. Students are vital to every aspect of change. While it was important to have students participate in the conference, the benefits reached beyond the convention. The benefits we see are students will be more educated to help the community, Anil Pahwa, professor of electrical and computer engineering, said.

The UAV program became so prevalent that a club of nearly 20 students formed with competition goals in mind. 'Trying to keep K-State at Salina on the cutting edge of everything, thatls why we started the club, Sheehy said. It's really kind of to get the students a hands-on experience of what aviation is moving towards. What we're doing right now is building a factory, off the shelf, radio-controlled helicopter that's actually designed for acrobatic use. We're taking this RC helicopter and we're adding an autopilot, and we're adding a payload, which will be a camera in our case, and we're getting this RC helicopter up to speed where it can take off, ily an entire mission, look at stuff, come back and land all on it's own, completely autonomous. The club intended the helicopter to compete in an intercollegiate competition in June or July 2010. Sheehy said students with all interests were welcome in the club and were needed in the UAV field. We need all spectrums of the majors, especially here on the Salina campus, he said. We use every major to help build and fly these UAVS, so d0n't be surprised to find a lot more of these things flying around. unmanned aircraft vehicles Ill 107 1'-W , - W it wa 'W' H M W ,U a, lesson in class dining etiquette workshop provides hands-on Instructions Sharply dressed students began milling around the lobby of the Derby Dining Center at 5 p.m., Nov. 5, waiting for their first etiquette tip of the night. The first instructions came as they donned nametags Con their right sides, above the hands they shake withj, and more instructions were given for the proper way to enter the banquet hall for the evenings meal. For nearly 20 years, Pat Pesci, director of the hotel and restaurant management program, led an etiquette dinner to teach attendees about proper manners in a professional environment. The event began in the late A805 when football coach Bill Snyder approached Pesci to help his players, and since that time, he had done workshops with students in the College of Agriculture, fraternities and sororities and Career and Employment Services. This whole experience is to give you more experience in interviewing, Pesci said. I Want to give you the skills to navigate an interview. Partway through the salad course, Pesci stopped everyone for an important clarification. UPut your utensils down. Stop dining. Everybody put your utensils down, he said. We go to McDonald's, Sonic and Burger King to eat. We go to a restaurant to dine. Those are two different animals. Throughout the meal, Pesci gave tips on everything from placement of the napkin when leaving the table Cto the left of the plate, though the back or seat of the chair was also acceptablej to what to do if a piece of gristle is stuck between teeth Ceither discreetly use an utensil or leave by Tamara Salisbury the tablej. He also took questions from students throughout the meal. Many students, like Leslie Campbell, junior in apparel and textiles, came to the workshop because of a class requirement, though she also thought it would be a worthwhile experience. CI thought it was goodj just because I had never done anything like that before, she said. I thought I might learn something useful, like leaving your tomato on the ground tif it fallsjf' Other students, like Nick Wilson, junior in political science, said he knew proper business etiquette would help him in future job interviews in the field of law. Dining etiquette is crucial if you Want to go into most professional careers, he said. Law firms are going to take me out. If you're going to win a business deal, it's going to happen at dinner or on the golf course. Pesci said he thought students bought into the dinners more than they did for the first dinners because they were aware they did not have the skills and knew how important they were. When we started this, we had two tables, he said. Now it's a campus event. Pesci said the event changed as society changed. For instance, he was asked more often about cell phone usage and international etiquette. I learn something new every time, he said. Tonight was the first time we've had someone get sick. It was a good experience, the students at that table handled it very nicely. dining etiquette Il109 I R W w'Km4 ,. . 15,5 2 ' ' ,'ff x fQ M W,Mm N 5 ,wumwj 52?

Leadership studies had been housed in two rental homes on Manhattan Avenue and a suite of offices in the Foundation Building on Anderson Avenue. Even after the new building was completed, Kansas Campus Compact and the Volunteer Center, entities of leadership studies, remained in the Foundation Building to ensure community access. One of the benefits of the new building was the increased connection between faculty because of proximity. Truly, we have the opportunity now for the collaboration we've always had the inclination for, Tolar said. We've worked really hard to collaborate with one another, but it's a lot easier now. It doesn't take near the effort. Tolar said there was also increased connection for the students in terms of meeting with faculty and staff and more opportunities to meet and work in small groups.

Jessica Jones, senior in graphic design buildings on campus ll 119 llEUllllStlllllHIiiiH iiissiiiiiiitiiiiitiitiiiiii by Tamara Salisbury tlllilllllli iiiiiiiiiiiiiii As third-year veterinary medicine students gathered along what was known as 'LI-70 in Mosier Hall, Beth G. Davis, associate professor of clinical sciences, distributed outlines of the day's activities for Laboratory Two: Advanced Equine Techniques. Included on the schedule were a discussion about sedatives, student application of intravenous catheters in horses, a nasogastric intubation demonstration and student application of a lower limb bandage. Davis said students took Clinical Skills, the year before they started their clinicals - individual rotations within the teaching hospital. The fall 120ll academics semester was devoted to small animals, and the spring semester focused on equine and feed animal skills, and it prepared students with the basic animal handling skills they would need as a veterinarian. In the class, students practiced clinical skills on horses maintained for teaching purposes by the college. Davis said the horses were chosen often for their temperantents, so students who had minimal experience with horses would have a positive first time. Sara Craven, third-year veterinary medicine student and president of the class of 2011, said she enjoyed the opportunity for hands-on learning. 'tWe learn about things in class all l With her clean i hand, Baird removes the pipette from the catheter with her dirty hand in Clinical Skills Feb. li. One important tip Davis gave students vvas using the same hand as a clean hand to avoid infection. For those of us vvho have never touched a horse or cow or sheep before, it is nice to have some instruction on howto do a physical exam, howto draw blood, howto stav sate and even just hovv to handle the animals in general, she said. lVlattBintei the time, and even though I have a very strong interest in equine, when you go and shadow a veterinarian, very likely they're not going to let you put in an IV catheter even if you're a third-year vet student, she said. So it's just a nice, quiet setting where you have people there to help you and teach you. There's no stress, there are no clients involved. Following a brief discussion of sedation, students split into groups of four or tive to practice putting an IV catheter in the horses. The horse that John Ayers, third-year veterinary medicine student, practiced on was named Rosie. He said though he was a little nervous, the hardest part was doing the hand-ties on the sutures to keep the catheter in place. It's really nice that we get a chance tc practice, he said. For next year, you're expected to do a lot of this stuff on your own, and for people like me who don't really have a large animal background and who aren't really planning on doing large animal, it's helpful. When each group finished with the catheters, they moved back to their semi-circle to watch Davis perform a nasogastric intubation on Rosie. As she put the tube through Rosie's nose and into her esophagus and then her stomach, Davis asked questions and ve tips, and she opened the iioor for estions at the end. Students were pecially curious if she had ever had any strointestinal juices come back up the be while she was blowing on it Ca tactic iich aided in the insertion of the tubej. ie answer: it had happened. Students ighed, but Davis said sometimes these ings just happen, and it was best not to fallow anything. Davis said the class was organized as a iall group setting with open discussion, d Craig Pauly, third-year veterinary edicine student, said he liked being le to ask the professors questions. The professors who teach here are experts in their fields, so they do a great job communicating proper techniques and up-to-date medicines, he said. L'They know all the ins and outsg they know what to tell us so that we don't get hurt and so that we're successful. One of the best things is just picking these guys for knowledge. As the class split again to their horses Qexcept one horse, Charlie Brown, which had been taken away to have his leg worked onj, Davis joked with her students about the importance in practicing basics like applying a lower limb bandage. All your credibility just went out the window if you can't wrap a lower limb bandage, she said. The atmosphere of the class remained open to the end, when many students stayed around to discuss the day's activities and ask Davis further questions even after they were dismissed. I really like coming in here and trying new things that I haven't ever gotten to try before, Craven said. 'tlt's just one step closer to actually getting to clinics. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel once you get to these classes. clinical skills Il 121 the teacher said Lets get our sex on'. by Anna Kearns The notes included a sketch of a penis. And for the women, the homework was to do 500 Kegel's exercises a day. In Justin Hall 109, Human Sexuality class offered a different learning environment from many other related courses. In our society, students have been having sex probably since they were 16 or younger, and while we have a very sexually active student population, it doesn't necessarily mean that they're practicing their sexuality safely or in healthy ways, said Kelly Welch, assistant professor of family studies and human services. So I envision the purpose of this class is to teach students about not just sex, but about sexuality - and those are two different things. Welch explained sex as the act or acts themselves, but sexuality as an experience based on a variety of aspects: biological, cultural and the subjective experiences of those elements. Though Welch planned a topic for each time the course met, she said the topic often either took longer than expected or changed entirely based on concerns and questions. The class usually ends up turning into an sex open forum, Kelsie Dawson, senior in mass communications, said, which is good because our generation knows so little. It's like all these people are out there having sex, but they don't really understand it. And in this class, people get the chance to get answers to the questions they really want to know. Welch said while the questions varied from very serious to hysterically funny, she tried to find time for as many as possible. I think there are a lot of misunderstandings about Csex and sexualityjf' she said. There are a lot of misunderstandings about how the male body 122 llacademics works, like does penis size matter? And the simple truth is no it doesn't, because the female body can accommodate whatever is placed in it, if you're talking about heterosexual sex. But I think there are a lot of myths: a lot of sexual myths, a lot of relationships myths, about both sexes. If we could have three hours twice a week, believe me, we would fill that time with questions from students. One thing the course offered students was a way to learn to communicate about sex and sexuality, David E. Thompson, assistant professor of family studies and human services, said. The purpose is to help students to be informed so they can make healthy and wise life decisions, Thompson said. The purpose is also to provide education so that when people are confronted with relationship issues or physical conditions, they've got a little more awareness of what's going on. Two of the biggest causes of relationships not making it, especially marriages, are sex and money. I've not seen any literature that says there's such a thing as sexual incompatibility. There may be differences in desire and sexual drive, but Cit's easierj if you can talk about it - and we spend two Weeks talking about communication and conflict resolution - and you're aware of what may be causing some of these things. Through the concerns and varying topics, Ashley Hinnergardt, junior in open option, said she felt they were important issues to discuss. CThis information isj important because they don't teach you this in eighth grade sex ed, she said. I've learned something new every day - learning about pregnancy, for example. I don't have the slightest idea about kids, so learning about your body and Why it does what it does Cis importantjf' During a lesson on l howto make an oral contraceptive called a dental dam, Erin Schneweis, junior in communication sciences and disorders, blows into an elastic glove.

Working at the herbarium gives me experience looking at different plants and learning their names, Kristen Row, senior in biology, said. It's interesting to look at our history through plants. The herbarium represented the Work of researchers around the Konza Prairie and researchers from around the world. Many species of plants were passed around the World for continuous studies and different opinions.

Whether their task was sketches, ceramics or watercolor, the majority of them had one thing in common - studio hours. Brianna Kerwood, junior in fine arts, aspired to become a college professor. UI really want to get my master's Cdegreej in drawing, she said. With drawing, you could take that into other directions too, so I could be a painting instructor too. Drawing is fundamental for painting. Kerwood said she put in long hours inside and outside the classroom, but never strayed from her main goal. I spend 12 to 13 hours a week in my classroom studio and then double that for out-of-class work in studio, she said. t'It,s mostly for projects. Right now I'm on my own, so we don't have assignments anymore. We use class time and studio time to better ourselves and figure out what we want to say with art. It's experimenting and figuring out what we like and what is important to us as artists. Regardless of the long hours, Kerwood said she did not deprive herself of sleep like most art students. uSometimes I'm up pretty late doing drawings, but I try to get six hours of sleep a night, Kerwood said. I get ideas going through my head sometimes when I'm trying to go to sleep. In between studio and catching up on sleep, Kerwood made room for planning a June 2010 wedding and more than one job. She said she had to learn to prioritize and juggle everything at once, I have several jobs on top of my art, she said. HI work as a deejay on the weekends, work in Seaton CHallj as a secretary and I do drawings for the Collegian once a week. I make sure Ijust take time out of my day to work on stuff because sometimes it can be put on the back burner. You have to 'figure out where your priorities are for the year and what's important. As she wrapped up her junior year, Kerwood said she was happy with the thought that she only had three semesters left. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but you have to make a name for yourself before you can even think about making money in art, she said. f'To see my professors teach and that they have time for their own art and send it to places all over the world like China, is my motivation. I think I would like teaching, and I would be good at it, but really, I just want to be able to do my own art. art student Il 127 ZA Communication with the past provides funds for the futur ly Anna Kearns On the third floor of the KSU Foundation Center, trays of leftover lasagna came to room temperature outside a room Where 80 students chatted with alumni over the phone. The smell of day-old coffee drifted from the office area to where students and Telefund team members Worked to reach the annual goal of approximately 351.5 million in scholarship funds. Though the financial goal was an estimate, Jeff Pfannenstiel, associate director of annual giving and student programs, said Telefund had bigger goals. A million-and-a-half dollars is What it ends up being, Pfannenstiel said. It's been like that for the last few years. We have intentions of increasing that, but We're limited right now in that We're in max capacity of our calling center. But beyond the financial goal, I think the real goal is just to make as many connections as possible with our alums from each college with our student caller. I think that's just as important as the gift itself. The calling capacity increased from 86 to 100 to as one Way to increase revenue. Other changes occurred during Pfannenstiel's three years working With Telefund, many of which came from surveys sent to past callers and current students. They asked for a meal, comfortable chairs, appealing prizes and a change in the grand prize. We Wanted to know the kinds of things students would like to be done differently and what would make it a better experience for them, Pfannenstiel said. We heard things like, tlf you're going to give us prizes, make them something vve're really interested in - gift cards,' and, 'Boy, a car is great, but one person gets a car, and l'd really like the chance to get a scholarship,' so we divided it up and gave more than one person a chance to win a grand prize. Historically, the grand prize was a car donated by the Wichita Area Big Wheels - a group of 50-60 alumni - but after a period of negotiation, the group agreed to develop and donate to the Wichita Area CK-State Telefund Scholarshipj instead. The scholarship provided a 551,000 scholarship to one student volunteer from each of the university's nine colleges. Despite the changes, Telefund continued to offer students a Way to connect with alumni. 'Alt helps build connections with our generation, who are so technologically savvy - we text and 'lyvitter and Facebook, but We're communicating with people Who graduated in '49, and We're communicating our need to them, Annarose Hart, Telefund coach and sophomore in agricultural education, said. We're relating to other generatior Though volunteers could expect the same schedule every night - dinner, getting acquainted, 45 minutes of training and three hours of calling interspersed with smaller prizes and a closing period including prize distribution - unexpected events did occur. On her first night of calling, Karem Roman, freshman in kinesiolo, received a 557,000 donation. lt felt so good because it was my second call, Roman said. It was just a normal call, and fthe cardj said to ask 1 a S500 donation, and he's all Tm going give 87,000 this year, I hope that makes your night' I told him it did. ln addition to connecting with alumi Telefund offered students a Way to represent the university. I think it gives Cstudentsj an opportunity, maybe if they're not involved in an organization, it gives the an opportunity to be an ambassador for K-State, Pfannenstiel said. Think about it, for three hours a night, you're the voice of K-State. On the other end c the phone, your voice is what they thin of fin regards to K-Statej. You're what i K-State to them. 66 lOrre reason to participate! is the incentives. Who doesn 't love a free meal? Plus, youre doin it with the people in your major and thats a fun time.

Fortunately, through math, cutting calories and a small amount of exercise each day, an easier way was established. Todd Easton, associate professor of engineering, created a diet and eventually wrote a book called 4'The When Diet: Mathematically Optimizing Eating and Exercise for Weight Loss. Basically the strategy is to not eat after dinner and get some sort of exercise after dinner, Easton said. The goal is to make the minimum number of changes to your life - that's what the math showed. Through his own willpower, Easton knew that he could lose weight and keep it off. By inventing this diet plan and sticking to it, he was confident in his research and lost 30 pounds to prove it. I wanted to lose weight and decided to optimize my own problem, he said. I started back in 2004 and lost 30 pounds. I decided to write a book once I got all my mathematical formulas correct. Beginning with basic reasoning and knowledge that was already well-known, Easton went a step further. I figured that what you eat today is independent from your hunger tomorrow, he said. What I eat today has no impact on how hungry I am tomorrow. Your hunger restarts each morning you wake up. Easton realized that by working out you only make yourself hungrier, and when you're strictly trying to lose weight, cutting calories and a small workout is all you really needed. He did not spend hours each night trying to burn calories. If you exercise, you burn calories and get hungry, Easton said. One of the dangers in exercising is when you eat everything you just burned off. I do one set of push-ups and sit-ups a night. Just the bare minimums. Easton stressed that his book was not by any means a healthy lifestyle book. The book did not teach you what to eat or how much to eat. Rather, he cut out the last 500 calories he would have eaten every day without worrying about the rest of the day. Eating limited calories and working out five days a week is the healthy way, he said. fThis book doesn'tJ focus on health. There's no way in the world I'm qualiiied to write a health book. portrait by Chelsy Lueth engineering professor ll 131 132 Il academics Qy Tlfang Mlson Insects overtook the Beach Museum of Art when the museum hosted an event honoring artist Robert J. Lang's origami Nov. 19 in partnership with the K-State Insect Zoo. Lang's origami was intricate and real, the insects ranged from cicadas and butterflies to grasshoppers and more. With more than 500 designs, Lang was recognized as one of the world's leading masters of the art. Every semester the museum had an event that incorporated an art activity into one of the exhibits. The fall semesters art activity was a Ladies' Night with holiday origami. The schedule for the event was informal and was mostly constructed so ladies enjoyed themselves. The night incorporated with a quick explanation of Robert Lang's art, then a tour at the Vanier Gallery where the art was being displayed. We have 35 people signed up and maxed out with a waiting list. I will start groups with easy patterns and go from table to table to help them with more difficult patterns, Kathrine Schlageck, senior educator at the Beach Museum, said. Following the tour, women began their crafts. Schlageck said the schedule was relaxed, but the origami was challenging. I had to learn how to make all the different pieces, Schlageck said. It's really hard to follow the visual instructions. Sometimes I would go on the Internet to watch someone folding when I got stuck. The women at the event varied in age, but all were interested in making crafts and learning something new. Most were thinking about giving their crafts away as Christmas gifts. I am interested in origami and other crafts, and I also make cards, Sharon Morrow, Manhattan resident, said. 'Tm interested in it mostly for Christmas presents. The museum's art classes for children inspired many of the adult events at the museum. We often hear from the adults that they would like to do the activities we do with the kids, Schlageck said. The origami was done at a lower level for children, though still mostly insect-inspired. Docents taught them how to fold cicadas and gave a special presentation in the exhibit about cicadas. I am a docent of this exhibit for first and second graders, Betsy Riblett, volunteer docent, said. HI teach cicadas, however, it still took me a really long time how to figure it out. Overall, Schlageck said she thought the event was successful. I think the women who come have a great time, she said. No prior art experience is necessary and it's really just a chance to play. Everyone goes home in a great mood. People sometimes make new friends, too. ' f insect H Iloween I zz Jan We love playing in front of the K-State students and people from the Manhattan area.

It provided a very chill of different things music-wisej' said Wayne Goins, professor of music and director of the Halloween Jazz Jam. We understand that not every listener is the same, so we try to play things that they can all appreciate.

It gave me a break from the through the air, heads started to uptight studying attitude that a lot of students get caught up in. 134W academics bobbed and toes tapped.

Goins expressed the closeness of the group members and also how much wol went into putting the show together. He also explained how the shows are done to allow the musicians to play in front o a live audience. We're like a big family - we all work hard for each other, he said.

We need to repeat this win again in February at our spring meet for the USTTA Kansas Division in Lincoln, Neb., if we do, Weill be going to nationals in Wisconsin. The group played in tournaments in cities Hutchinson, Kan., Wichita, St. Louis and Oklahoma City. Attending meets gave the group more than just the opportunity to play table tennis, but also a chance to make memories. Apparently in our hotel room at the national tournament around 4 a.m., I began talking in my sleep to my roommate Xinwei Shen Cgraduate student in industrial engineeringj, ,15 saying, 'Get up, we have to go play now, ' Moore said. Any time he lost a match the next day, he would point his linger at me and say he didn't get enough sleep. Meets and practices were also learning experiences beyond simply learning about how to play. Ruben Miiller, senior in psychology, said he learned that the sport was more prominent in other countries. He said he had the opportunity to learn about those other cultures because the group was predominately made up of international students. They were encouraged to challenge themselves to improve, and some, including Moore, gained appreciation for leadership. Most of all they learned about friendship and supporting each other. 'fBeing able to travel, hang out with great friends, meet amazing people and play table tennis - you just can't ask for more, Hales said. While playing table tennis, Dongchen Hao, senior in milling science and management, returns a serve. The club was a great vvay to meet people.

For more than 50 years, the team had a tradition of leadership and experience for the students involved. The students leam how to make quick decisions, coach Michel Ransom, professor of agronomy, said. It teaches them to work as a group. The team practiced once a week for three hours, traveling to different open areas around Manhattan to critique the soil. Practicing not only helped prepare them for their contests, but it helped build communication and experience within the team. During contests, which were anywhere from Rhode Island to Utah, they had a hole to critique together in ten minutes, thinking quickly and making decisions as a team. They also had a hole to apply their own thoughts and work on alone. Essentially, the people putting it on judge and classify the soil, Angela Tran, senior in agronomy, said.

They were also able to get a feel for what it was like to be in a professional environment. Winning and losing was a big part of the competition, however, it was hard to predict what place the team would come in. t'The last competition we went to we didn't think we were going to win, but we did, Tran said. t'We thought we were going to get fourth place, and when they announced fourth place and didn't say our name, I personally ruled us out. Despite the result of the competitions they gained an appreciation for not being stuck learning in a classroom all day, and the development of teamwork and leadership skills that would benefit them when they graduate. I hadn't seen a team work like this since I'd been to collegef Kelsey McGie, senior in milling science, said. Teamwork is big when judging. Even though most sports required constant teamwork and leadership, the soil judging team allowed an academic team to step outside of the classroom and let its knowledge in the classroom shine in authentic scenarios. 1' '05, is ., I MZ' ,H J Q7 A f P :JW .

Volunteers from the Student Farm Club walked, buckets in hand, amid rows of tomatoes, okra and other vegetables in front of a backdrop of dark rain clouds on a mild fall evening. Farm Club, also known as Willow Lake Student Farm students, also known within the group as Harvesters Of Environmental Sustainability or HOES, had many names, but members did not focus on how they were recognized. They focused on educating others about good agricultural practices. The idea of Farm Club is that they supplement the farm with volunteer labor, and in turn, the farm is supposed to serve as a teaching experience to them, said Brandon Gonzalez, farm co-manager, public relations chair and senior in horticulture. Most people are ignorant of the food system, but everybody eats. We have had a lot of people come out and learn, at one time we had 120 elementary school kids out here. Jacob Chapman, president and freshman in agronomy, wasted no educational time during volunteer work picking vegetables Sept. 24. When a student volunteer asked where the bathroom was, he pointed to a row of trees. Everyone laughed, but Chapman pressed on, asking the volunteer to decide between wasting water and being comfortable. 'tWell, what do you want to do? he asked. Do you want to be sustainable or do you want to use 1.6 of our gallons? While members joked about sustainable practice, the farm used many sustainable practices, such as composting some of their own fertilizer. On this night, students from Farm Club also canned tomatoes. Megan Burke, junior in secondary education, was not a member of Farm Club but was friends with some members and often attended some of their educational events. I thought I'd see the canning process. I thought that might be interesting, she said. MI go to a bunch of the guest speakers they have here. Gonzalez not only implemented the knowledge gained from speakers in his management of the farm, but also used it to transform his own life. Being on the farm taught me a lot about nutrition, taught me alot about labor, taught me a lot about a lot of things, but I'm 40 pounds lighter than I used to be, he said. That comes from hard Work and eating iight - a change in lifestyle. Sustainable practice was not just an educational topic for the members of Farm Club. They saw themselves as the start of something bigger for agriculture and horticulture. We're bringing local food to local people, Chapman said. When fossil fuels and petroleum are gone, that's the way it's going to have to be, so we're just starting the transition. student farm club ll 147 whf' qu ,ai :'mJI W-4' ' W 'W' R.-.--1 a, ', f ,f x, ,WH V .

Lisle Aldertori One by one, members of the Dodgeball Club gathered, anxious to divide and conquer during the regular Tuesday practice Sept. 29. Besides the competitive activity, embers used the time to chat. I meet friends here, and it's fun to see ople week after week, David Korth, eshman in business administration, said. Sounds of bouncing balls and yelling led Ahearn Gymnasium. They lowered e dividers to keep the flying missiles intained. Each team lined up on the arting line, while ammunition was set at center court. Lurching toward center, members locked their eyes on the balls. Ready, set, dodgeball! The students sprinted towards the balls, grabbed them and then backed away, launching their weapons at one another with full force. It's mass hysteria and total mayhem all night, said Zachary Polson, president and junior in park management and conservation. The eliminated victims formed a line along the wall, and they cheered and cautioned their teammates who survived. It's the Herbal Essences - as in, it's invigorating- of sports clubs, Wesley New, treasurer and junior in mechanical engineering, said. You're always darting back and forth, looking for someone who makes the wrong move and then just going for them. Besides the physical advantages of playing dodgeball, members also worked to improve their mental health. CDodgeball isj fantastic, Kacie Davis, sophomore in fine arts, said. It's a great excuse to take out anger on people you don't even know. It's also a good way to exercise for those who don't want to, and it's a good way to end a day full of classes. dodgeball club ll 149 E il A fast-paced salsa song calls for complicated moves from two experienced dancers, Jeremy Kemherling, fonner student, and Tiffany Muck, president and senior in speech.

Dancing is one of those things you can't learn at school unless you seek it out, and it's something that would be useful later on. It's also a great place to unwind. I bombed a finance test last week, and now Pm here. Throughout the dance, officers dashed into the sound booth to check on the lineup and honor song requests. Exiting the sound booth, Lindsay Ratliff, vice-president and alumna, was called by an onlooker. Adjusting her tornado costume, she avoided the distraction. After this one. OK? she said.

We really try to show that you can have fun, you can dance, you can Ieam a skill and you can meet a lot of people in a safe environment.

What doesn't CSwing 8x Salsaj have to offer its members? Ratliff said. One of the things I think members don't expect to get is a group of friends. I know a lot of people who I've only known through Swing 8: Salsa, and I know people who have started forming groups of friends just from dancing with each other. So it's a really easy and fast way to meet people. Around 9 p.m., Michael Jackson's Thriller was the cue for two lines to form down the dance floor. The officers were called to the Vi M 13 W 'mmm ml' sound booth, and their faces were lit only by . laptop as they judged the dancers' costumes, who paraded two-by-two between the lines.

What would it look like to Work 1rd to develop as that kind of leader while I'm in college so I can have a really strong foundation for the future? ' There were ll people on the StuMo staff, and a larger student leadership team made up of students who decided to let God use them to influence others, Jessica Adams, senior in mass communications, said. Adams became involved with StuMo as a sophomore and joined the student leadership team. As part of the team she helped create live and recorded skits to perform at the large group meetings. I think one thing that I've just really been privileged to, or blessed maybe, to get to have through StuMo is people in my life who are really leading me and helping me to grow and develop in my relationship with Christ, Adams said. I've just seen that college is a time where you lay the foundation for your life. lt's where you make all your big choices and big decisions. It's really kind of the first time that you're on your own and really seeing what you want your life to be about and what you want your purpose in life to be. People in StuMo, they've really helped me to learn what it looks like to follow Christ with my life and help me see what it meant to live out my faith everyday. Small group Bible discussions were offered each week and other events, like the StuM0 conference, took place throughout the year. 'lfyler Geisler, senior in construction science and management, became involved with StuMo second semester of his freshman year. He, like Adams, helped lead a skit team and also led Bible studies across campus. 'Alt was really just the genuiness of the guys who were teaching from the Bible, Geisler said. 'tl really saw that they had a heart that changed because their life was changed. They got to see the power of God act in their life, and they wanted to see that happen in someone elses. 66 lStulVlol does a lot for rne. l have a lot of great friends from lt, and it gives me encouragement.

The group planned to attend the anime convention in Kansas City, Mo., on Feb. 19 for the second time. Bandel said the convention provided another outlet for members to get involved in anime. The convention included guest speakers, panels that conducted trivia games where contestants won prizes, games rooms and cosplay, where attendees dressed in their best anime costumes and were judged on whose costume was best. t'They have a deal room, Bandel said. 'tIt's where people can bring their Canime and mangaj art and sell it. They also have figurines that you can't find il a lot of places. And there are calendars mugs, bags and even Japanese candies and snacks. The club also held a Halloween party that allowed members to dress up in their cosplay.

The Bakery Science Club began baking nine days in advance. Total in sales, we had about 1,000 preorders this year, so that's really good, Amber Dryden, president and senior in bakery science and management, said. With our advertising and the efforts of our officers trying to get the word out, it's definitely helped this year. We've not done that in the past, and it's kind of hurt our sales, but we're trying to do anything that makes the club better. The sale got off to an uncertain start when the first big snow of the season hit the university the day before they were scheduled to have the sale. We were kind of iffy Cabout prospective salesjf' Ashlin Cox, sales manager and junior in secondary education, said. Our sale was postponed because of snow, but it turned out better than last year, so we can't complain. The amount of products for a normal bake sale was two types of cookies and two or three different types of bread, but for the Christmas bake sale, the amount of goods more than doubled. This time we're doing six or seven types of cookies, Dryden said, along with French and Vienna bread, banana bread, brownies, graham crackers, and then our big specialty item is a holiday item called a Kringlef' The Kringle was a specialty bread, consisting of an oval-shaped pastry filled with a fruit filling and topped with icing. Customers could either buy the Kringles baked or frozen to make fresh at home. The ingredients used for baking were all donated, so the profits of the sales throughout the year went straight to the club's trips to food conferences like the American Society of Bakers Conference that was held in Chicago. Many donations were made by contacts made at the conferences or bake science alumni who worked in the industry. 'KA lot of past graduates now work for the big companies, so they know how it was trying to get donations when they were in college, so they try to help us out, Dryden said. We go to a conference every year in Chicago that we get a lot of good contacts through. In addition to being useful for networking, the conferences also provided an opportunity to learn new things that would help the club, like different ways to handle and sell products, Megan Thyfault, secretary and junior in bakery science and management, said.

Sean Stenseng, president and sophomore in life sciences, asked each person to explain how they felt about censorship in the media. Of the 22 people in attendance there were 22 completely different answers. Every Wednesday at 8 p.m. the group met in the K-State Student Union to discuss controversial subjects affecting the world. Topics of conversation included the legitimacy of Christianity, atheists' place in society, global warming and the existence of extra- terrestrial life. uWe get a wide variety of people with a lot of different beliefs who come to our meetings, Stenseng, said. We don't discriminate against anybody. This group is all about being able to support your beliefs with logic, but we don't persecute people if they disagree with the majority. At each meeting Stenseng introduced the topic of the night and then the Block 81 Bridle group arranged their chairs in a large circle to openly talk about the subject matter. Stenseng said discussions were often adversary in nature due to conflicting opinions, but cooler heads always prevailed, and the meetings remained civil. Our group could be described as argumentative, he said. 'This club is really for people who like to debate. Although the majority of the group's members were atheist or agnostic, the club was open to people of different backgrounds. Most of the time faith was not a main determinant of people's opinions in the group because many of the things talked about were not about religion, Stengseng said. Atheists, Jews, Christians, Muslims, pagans, liberals and conservatives often shared common ground with one another while still maintaining different sets of values. Some topics do dabble in religion, but we really don't have too many conversations about religious topics, Ryan Allen, vice president and senior in biochemistry, said. We aren't i f w ai 3 trying to promote any religion or non- religion, instead, we want to gain an understanding of all faiths and beliefs. Meetings generally lasted for about an hour, but pockets of conversation sprouted after the club officially dispersed. Allen said every person in attendance wanted to have the last word in the discussions. He also said people lingered because the club provided a place for people who had sometimes unpopular views to safely Blue Key Front Row: Ashley Quakenbush, Katie llaukos, KaCee Carson, Fl'0l1t ROW!

Meanwhile, a man covered in plastic sacks meandered down the narrow aisle full of aimless Wanderers holding a sign that said, What's the coolest group on campus? Students for Environmental Action. Occasionally, one of the Wanderers crept between tables to peer over the K-State Student Union first floor balcony down to the courtyard below, eyes grew bigger as they saw an ice skating rink put together like puzzle pieces. The spring Activities Carnival was jointly organized by the Office of Student Activities and Services, Healthy Decisions and the Union Program Council Jan. 21. Karina Garcia, UPC community co-chair and junior in communication sciences and disorders, said they focused the entertainment - such as a balloon artist, a make-your-own-chapstick stand, hot cocoa and an ice skating rink - around a Blizzard Beach theme. We brought in extra stuff for our events, but we've never brought in an ice skating rink before, so we thought we'd try something different, she said. We thought it'd look really cool and be a lot of funf, For Amy A. Davidson, junior in life sciences, the extras drew her to attend the event. QI came becausej I heard there were balloon animals, she said, smiling. The ice skating is really impressive. Even though it's not real ice, it's still really cool, and there's free stuff of course. Healthy Decisions, on the other hand, participated mostly in organizing several student- service organizations to attend. Jamie Weiser, chairperson for HD and sophomore in life sciences, said she thought it was important to show students everything available to help them. 168 Il organizations 'fWe organized fthe first floorj to give students a chance to find the resources they have on campus, she said. We give out lots of free goodies to help promote the resources. Bill Harlan, assistant coordinator for OSAS, said the spring carnival began as a simple activities carnival that was a spin off, of the fall carnival. We started with just the activities carnival part of it, saying here's your chance to get involved and find out what is going on, and that grew into a bigger event as UPC got involved, and now Healthy Decisions got involved by inviting student services, he said. What we found out is the first week of school, freshmen just don't know what they need yet and don't know how much time they have to get involved, so the spring Ccarnivalj is the answer to that. So, now they know what their interests might be, and what they want to get involved in and how much time they have, so here's their chance to find something that fits that. Because the university boasts nearly 500 student organizations, Harlan said the carnival gave students a chance to see several groups in the same place. One thing that's always interesting is that last year we had 480 organizations, and students are always shocked to find that out, Harlan said. We have the information on our Web site. We have the information on handouts. But nothing is as impressive as coming and seeing hundreds upon hundreds of people who are involved and want you to be involved with them. Harlan said one of the differences between the fall and spring Carnivals is the spring carnival's emphasis on giving students a fresh start to the new year. 'There are some workshops about time management and finance management, the student services are here for academic help, and there are ways to get involved with student organizations, he said. Its important to get involved, but its also important to get help, and it's also important to meet new friends and have fun. lt's a holistic approach. At the spring Activities Carnival, themed Blizzard Beach, Elizabeth Trevino, senior in life sciences, laughs as a balloon is made for her by Mike Mauthe, Mike Da Roving Guy balloon artist, Trevino's balloon ended up as a purple monkey.

There were some people who really didnt know much about what was going on over there, Dennis Foye Jr., non-degree Lurdergraduate student, said.

Fair Trade Advocates sponsored Fair Trade Week as a way to promote fair trade's mission: to ensure producers in foreign countries received adequate wages to make a living off their products. I think it's a really easy way to make a difference in the lives of other people, said Stephanie Alderman-Oler, president of the Fair Trade Advocates and senior in secondary education. You don't really have to do anything outside your day-to-day routine to support fair trade and fair wages. Fair Trade Week featured a fashion show Nov.l7, a marketplace with only fair trade- approved goods and a hunger banquet Nov. 22, which was a dinner used to show class divisions around the world. The purpose of the hunger banquet was to raise awareness of the world hunger issue, Alderman-Oler said. The dinner was served in proportion to world classes. Ten percent got an upper-class meal - full dinner with salad. Middle class, which is 35 percent of the population, got rice and beans. The lower class, the bottom 55 178 W organizations percent, only got rice, and that was it. It was a way to represent how the classes are separated through the world. The hunger banquet was the final event in the week. The week started with a fashion show to display the goods sold at the marketplace located in the K-State Student Union courtyard featured items from several local stores, including T-La-Re and On the Wildside, The market was really interesting, Samantha M. Williams, junior in agricultural education, said. lt was a nice break to stop by and see the different things the club could offer. I hadn't really heard about fair trade before, but this was interesting. l liked all the different jewelry available. The Fair Trade Advocates began planning the week during the summer, Sara Lynde, senior in family studies and human services, said. The week brought attention to the Fair Trade Advocates and showed people it was easy to make a difference. I think people came away a little bit more aware of the global aspects of economy and where they sit through the hunger banquet, Lynde said. They probably realized they are in the top 10 percent, and it's easier to help out with big issues than they think. People are intimidated by global poverty and hunger. We try to point out small ways people can help it. n W ,M 'V ,WM hw ,M W, , Wm 'wwahwwwm: M51 ,.q, 'f I 4 JMWWU' 'wfwfi 2 -1, 1 f' ' W4 r ' ' , fp, x .v 1' ' 'Z 0 'E- X Q - f ,fb ' ' L' 'YT'- I 4 www mf., aw H.

Fair Trade Certification empowered workers to lift themselves out of poverty by investing in their farms and communities, protecting the environment and developing necessary skills to compete in a global marketplace. fair trade principles include: Fair price: Democratically organized farmer groups receive a guaranteed minimum floor price and an additional premium for certified organic products. Farmer organizations are also eligible for pre-harvest credit. Fair labor conditions: Workers on fair trade farms enjoy freedom of association, safe working conditions and living wages. Forced child labor is strictly prohibited. Direct trade: Importers purchase from fair trade producer groups as directly as possible, eliminating unnecessary middlemen and empowering farmers to develop the business capacity necessary to compete in the global marketplace. Democratic and transparent organizations: Fair trade farmers decide democratically how to invest revenues. Community development: Fair trade farmers and farm workers invest fair trade premiums in social and business development projects like scholarship programs, quality improvement trainings, and organic certification. Environmental sustainability: Harmful agrochemicals and genetically modified organisms are strictly prohibited in favor of sustainable farming methods that protect farmers' health and preserve valuable ecosystems for future generations. hflpffufww.

At 6 p.m., the magic started. The club practiced with regular attendees as well as people who just wanted to learn and those who wanted to perform. One of my favorites was a performance we did for about 200 Fort Riley folks, Ryan Bradburn, former president and alumnus, said. They were having an office Christmas party and asked us to come out as entertainment. It was great because we were able to get several members of the Juggling Club to participate and experience what it's like to be on stage in front of a large crowd. The crowd was really fun too and seemed to really enjoy our 45 minutes Worth of antics. Other than holiday parties, Jason Kennedy, president and senior in computer science, said they organized the Little Apple Juggling Festival, which took place during each spring semester. The juggling festival was a time for jugglers in the Midwest to get together to do something they all enjoyed. The KSU Juggling Club is pretty much one big fun, funny, exciting experience, Bradburn said. Each week's meeting was a blast, but the festival Outside of Salsaritas in the K-State Student Union, Katie Brewer, treasurer and senior in chemistry, and Lance Williams, senior in management practice their juggling skills with clubs.

Jugglers from all over the Midwest descend on K-State and have a rollicking good time. Those who participated in the festival spent most of their time juggling. By the end of the festival, everyone was tired, which helped them let loose and J brought out their creative side. We invented Fancy Pants Day for the last day of each festival, which brings out the bizarre leggingsf' Bradburn said. There's always some odd sort of game that arises, from straw bouncing and coffee creamer pop-up games to races to see who can bounce a club across the gym in the shortest time. However, because the group was informal, K participation in performances was not required. Members participated in as many events as fit their personalities. I am more of a recreational juggler, Katie Brewer, senior in chemistry, said. The performances I have done are informal, walk-around juggling. Those are pretty fun. You just juggle and ' teach others how to juggle. V No matter how they practiced or where they M performed, the important thing was they had fun. , The best thing about our gatherings was certainly just getting together with friends and sharing our common interests and enjoying each others company, Bradburn said. am.

What they found yvas like nothing they had seen: children yyere being kidnapped and forced to serve rebel leader Joseph Kony in the the Lourdes Resistance Army. From this journey, a nationwide cause and non-profit organization knoyyn as the lnyisible Children emerged. lt worked directly vyith the children in Uganda as yyell as educated the yvorld about the long and arduous yvar, the longest- lasting yyar in Africa. Through the media, they planned to restore Uganda to what it was before Kony took control. invisible childr 186ll organizations ' ice for ' the o People fled to a specific city, abducted themselves and would not leave until a political figure rescued them. The event, which happened at different sites around the world, signified the abduction of children in Uganda and worked to raise awareness. Two students, Erin K. White, freshman in family studies and human services, and Newell Bowman, freshman in women's studies, shared a common concern for the children and decided to get involved with the Invisible Children organization. It wasn't a protest, it wasn't a rally, but standing together to raise awareness for these kids, White said. We didn't leave until we were rescued by a political figure, somebody that said, 'I understand what's going on in Uganda, and I'm pledging my support' It was a stance of solidarity. The women gathered as many people as they could from the university and traveled to Kansas City, Mo., to help with the cause. The day of 'The Rescue' was so surreal, Bowman said. The whole idea was we would be 'abducted' from one site and march to the 'Lourdes Resistance Army' camp as the children do who are kidnapped. A group of about 800 people walked about 45 minutes from the J .C. Nichols fountain to the Liberty Memorial in Kansas City, April 25. With straight faces and complete silence, the group held signs that read Invisible Children to represent the organization they stood for. We encouraged people to be silent and think eles about the kids and what was going on, White said If you think about it, a continuous Iiow of 800 people marching down Kansas City with straight faces not saying anything sends a message and enthusiasm for what they believed in. They were families that risked being outside during a tornado siren, and juniors and seniors in high school who missed their prom to come out for this cause lt was really moving to see how many people and different types of people were there, Kyle Black, freshman in biology, said. People ignored the differences between one another and focused on this cause. As the night went on, people danced, sang and read poetry together. By midnight, the band Switchfoot showed up at the site and was officially the political figure that rescued the abducted Switchfoot came, and it was really powerful Bowman said. They came down to meet everybody Everybody there shared the same concern, passion and just talk. They weren't celebrities that night We were all coming together and taking a stand. After the rescue some people went home, some people stayed the rest of the night, and some went to Chicago to wait with the last city that had not been rescued yet and received recognition on Oprah Winfrey's talk show. With this issue, once you hear about it, you can't not care, White said. It's just an issue of not knowing. Once people know they are moved to act. That was a basis of what the night was about. 66 When people are brought together for a common purpose, and when they are united doing something for other people, I don't think there is any greater bond than that.

After orief conversation, they continued, rting across Fort Riley Boulevard, rrowly missing oncoming traffic. This is real geocaching, said avid Vavra, president and special idergraduate in computer science. The students were not carrying their cell lones, but Garmin GPS devices - except lristine Ebert, junior in kinesiology, no used her phone for its GPS. Geocaching is like a high-tech easure hunt, Vavra said. You have nur GPS, and you put the coordinates r the geocaches in it, which you found iline. There are lots of geocaches ound the world. Just here in anhattan, there are like 50 of them.

They had just crossed Fort Riley Boulevard on their way to their second geocache when they had to stop. The GPS said the geocache was only .16 miles away, but they had to cross Wildcat Creek to get to Linear Trail. To do that, they either had to go through a backyard or walk down a block and around. They will shoot him, I think, Vavra said, laughing. Let's go around there. Ebert joined the club after meeting Vavra, a Czech Republic native. Because of language difficulties, he convinced her she needed to try it for herself. I thought it was the world's best-kept secret, Ebert said. Unless you're looking for them, you have no idea they're there. The group had been looking for the geocache for about 20 minutes when they made it to the ending location, only to have to search the area for the box holding the logbook. Ebert said both the toughest part and the most rewarding part of geocaching was finding the geocache. The GPS only gets you Cclosej, but it's going to lead you to the vicinity, she said. And then you're going to have to find it. And oftentimes they're hidden in knots in trees and things like that. Or underneath bushes, and CVavraj tells me stories that sometimes they're under water or you have to climb a tree. Xi Chen, graduate student in civil engineering, finally found the geocache behind a tree root after a minute of contemplating going down the steep embankment to the creek. The group members all signed the log, and they began the long walk back to City Park and their parked cars and bikes. I enjoy the weather and being outside, Chen said. Sometimes I don't know where I'm going though. But it's interesting, casual, and a way to hang out with friends. Vavra said he started the club because he wanted to share his hobby with others who hadn't heard of it. It's my number one hobby and I couldn't be Without it, he said. In Czech, not everyone does it, but they at least know what you are talking about. Here, almost nobody knows. So I said, 'I will start a club.' It's more ftm with a group of people.

Throughout the night, the music ranged t'ro1n country to rap and from original compositions to songs on the radio. John Deterding, junior in engineering, made a statement early in the show with his original rap A Single Spark when he announced all proceeds from the purchase of his song would go directly to Haiti relief organizations. As the beat grew stronger, Deterding explained his philosophy. This song is based on the concept o a tire, he said. You start with a single spark. With a single spark you can change everything. It's not enough to stand around and wish, Deterding had audience members on their feet, swaying and clapping.

A bewildered hush fell as the audience realized that lVIcGinn's looping pedal was now playing the guitar line. lVIcGinn switched the looping pedal so it played the bass line, calling it their invisible bass player. Intermission featured Jessica Furney, judge, two-time American Idol contestant and freshman in music, singing her 2010 American Idol audition song, i'Footprints in the Sand. Many of the contestants were complimented by the judges for having heart and spirit. However, a trio of three women not only received praises from the judges, they got a standing ovation from much of the audience. Jasmine Hammond, junior in mass communication, Deborah Muhwezi, senior in mass commtmication, and Angela Muhwezi, sophomore in biologf belted a version of uAmazing Grace by John Newton. Though many other contestants received the suggestion to make a popular song more original, these three women did not hear that comment. It was so fun to listen to a song we knew but to not know where it was going, Smith said. After one introductory song, one intermission song, 16 performances and one or two technical glitches, the judges settled down to deciding who would take home the cash. Deterding won third place and 95100. Dani Lucas, sophomore in communication sciences and disorders, won second place and 39200 for her original song Black Car, with which she played the piano. An oversized S300 check awaited the first place winner. As the emcee said the first name of the trio of women, the audience erupted into a wave of noise. It's exciting for me and Deborah because we've competed for the last two years, so it's refreshing to know that we're ending with a win. I don't know how to explain, but we were nervous, Hammond said. i'There's so much great competition this year, so to be considered the best is unexplainably amazing.

Adriann Sullivan k-state idol IH 191 jus 13 by Tam Cowley With no evident signs, Diana Hylton's battle with an eating disorder began around sixth grade, but it was not until later her family realized the problem. I went to a private school, and in our all-girls school, we all had the drive to be the best and look the best, Hylton, senior in microbiology, said. I didn't think about what I was doing at first. It was addicting at a young age. Hylton's involvement in Sensible Nutrition Body Image Choices and Eating Disorders Awareness Week hit close to home because of her history with anorexia. The week featured a documentary showing, a yoga class and a speaker. HI liked how SNAC was getting the message out on campus about not only eating disorders but also about health in general, Hylton said. MI saw SNAC as a Way to help other people with problems like mine. Hylton said the mind does not function normally when suffering from an eating disorder. She said people saw things the Way they Wanted, usually resulting in seeing themselves larger than in reality. During my freshman year of high school, I had to leave school for six months because of my condition, Hylton said. My mom homeschooled me for the rest of the year, and if it weren't for my mom holding my hand and helping me through it, I wouldn't have woken up so fast. Hylton's heart grew weaker, and she weighed around 70 pounds, and though spontaneous visits to the outpatient care were required, her parents did not think it was necessary to put her in the hospital, thinking she was strong enough to pull through on her own. L'My parents knew me. They trusted me, Hylton said. It was weird knowing something was wrong with me, but not knowing how to change it. Throughout high school, Hylton number sought help from counselors and suppc from friends and parents, and she bega to see a change. Even with the transitic into college, Hylton's freshman year went well, she ate regularly and becam involved in SNAC. As Hylton's sophomore year started, she got busy with a job and school, anc she nearly relapsed. She said she founc support within her friends and SNAC, and she knew she needed to trust them Having a support system is instrumental, she said. I had to trust that they were right and I was wrong. Hylton said she believed her struggle made her stronger and helped her have more confident voice about issues sucl as eating disorders. Alf a girl is too scared to share her problem about an eating disorder, I would tell her that there is hope, alway Hylton said. I would tell her she's beautiful, she's brilliant, she's worth it.

Rovelto trained athletes in track and field at the university who hoped to make it to the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. For someone, regardless of how much physical ability they have, you're talking about an 8-10 year process to get to that point in the sport of track and Held, Rovelto said. It's a long process, and it takes many repetitions, a lot of time in the weight room and a lot of miles to get to the point where you can compete at that level. Our country, without question, is the most difficult Olympic team to make in the world. Keeping this in mind, post-collegiate track and field athletes stuck to a strict training schedule. A typical day consisted of strength training early in the morning for an hour and then practice in the afternoon that lasted anywhere from one and a half to three hours. Staying healthy is number one, Scott Sellers, high jumper and university alumnus, said. We're in such a talented country -- there's always a lot of really good athletes you're competing against. If you don't have your body, you don't have anything. l96Ill sports Early on the athletes understood the dedication it would take to get to the Olympic - games. They chose not to be a part of the stereotypical college party scene. They would call it an early night when everybody else was ready to go out for more fun, Sellers said. You really can't lead a normal life, he said. You have to really dedicate yourself to training. A lot of college students think of college as party time I guess. You don't really get a lot of that because we practice two times a day, seven days a week. We sacrifice some, but we also get another social aspect by being a part of the team and having a lot of close friends. Coming from Michigan State University to train with Rovelto, Bettie Wade, heptathlon runner, knew since she was a child that she wanted to be a runner. Wade and her father had races outside their home when she was younger, and it got to the point where she would beat him, she said. Pm pretty spiritual, so I give God all the glory for blessing me with all the talents, she said. In addition to the blessings I've received, I'm a hard worker, so I think with the combination of these two things, it has allowed me to be successful. With talent came a desire to see results quickly, Rovelto said. A if f xk QQ W if IN! 1' 1 I 4 .J llffv wi, ff ,4 u...i 1 ....z.Tf'f--3-- . n--- 3 ki n.,.

By nature, great athletes tend to be 1patient, he said. They want to be good, ld they want to be good now, that's part of hat drives them. One of the things they have l learn to do is be patient. That's probably le of the more difficult things for the :hletes and their coaches. Not only did the training require long murs, but it required the athletes to be in rape, both mentally and physically. With the amount of hours we have to put 1 a day, you have to be mentally strong, mm Diana Pickler, heptathlon runner and 'ashington State University alumna. It's retty intense on the body, but Coach Rovelto amazing at giving us workouts that we can 9 day after day. With the understanding that each day ould not be handed to him, Sellers said he knew making it to the Olympics would require more than talent. He said he knew at times obstacles would get in the way, but he had to deal with it. It takes a lot of dedication and the mind set of understanding there will be setbacks, but Cyou've gotj to see past them, he said. You're never going to have a perfect week of training or a perfect day of training. If you get discouraged by the little things, then it's going to affect your attitude, and your attitude will affect your training, and your training will affect the way you compete. Because they were motivated and determined, the athletes agreed they did not make many sacrifices since this was the life they chose for themselves. It's the highest honor in athletics to make an Olympic team, Sellers said. Not a whole lot of people can do it, so if you think you can do it that's a pretty big motivation. With her shot put and javelin in hand, Diana Pickler, heptathlon runner, meditates on her journey to make it to the 2012 summer Olympics. It's an evolution thing, Pickler said. Every step l've seen farther and farther.

Four freshmen ed the gap, which meant half the team s inexperienced in dealing with the assures of collegiate golf. It was good to have new blood on the m, head coach Kristi Knight said. verall, we did not have a good year. It s a building year, a disappointing year. the season went along, the girls never 76 up. They kept battling. Although the fall season got off a rough start, many golfers placed lividually and accomplished personal tories throughout the season. Junior Abbi Sunner played in all tournaments, shooting her personal st and a tournament best at the l 1 I Mountain View Collegiate with a score of 67. L'Things were working that day, Sunner said. I was hitting it close, and I was making putts that on a normal day I might not make. I just took advantage of every opportunity I had and didn't have anything go awry that day. At the Dr. Donnis Thompson Invitational in Hawaii, freshman Paige Osterloo shot a 69. uFor a freshman to come in and shoot a score like that early in her career was great, Knight said. Although the individual golfers did well, the team struggled. However, the season ended in remarkable fashion at the Big 12 Championship tournament. We went into it being underdogs, and we hadn't performed Cwellj all year, junior Morgan Moon said. We were picked close to last, but We ended up shooting one under par the first day. We were put into the top three on the second day. It just brought into perspective what we could do. The golfers performed better than they had all year and had their highest finish all season. Moon and junior Elise Houtz led the team, tying for 15th place. The Wildcats placed fourth at the Big 12 Championship, which was the best finish in university history for post-season play. All season we got better, but we never got to the point that We wanted to be until the last tournament at the Big 12, Houtz said. We really finished strong. I think we kind of surprised some people at the tournament and tumed some heads. They started seeing K-State as a young team to watch for next year. Immediately after putting, lvloon vvatches her ball and hoping it makes it into the hole. lVloon vvas one of the more expirienced golfers on the team, as well as one ot two captains. I knovv I have to step up my game, she said. lt's exciting to lcnovv I'm playing forthe Big I2 championship. I get psyched up and get ready to go, and I just play better. Lisle Alderton 66 It's exciting to knovv im playing tor the Big 12 Championship. l get psyched up and I just play better. We had Worked hard all season and vve had never gotten the results vve vvanted. It telt good to have such a good finish after struggling all season. Elise Houtz, sophomore women's golf Il 203 dr: ve .. Having arguably one of the best seasons in men's golf history, every player was an important asset to the team. Records were set and golfers were constantly recognized for their accomplishments on the course. Everybody has one or two players who can play anywhere, head coach Tim Norris said. We had a good third and fourth scorer as well. The team won four tournament titles, a feat only one other team in university history had accomplished in one season. Along with first- place titles came a fourth-place finish at the Big 12 Championship. There was a lot of state pride involved since we were in Hutchinson, Kan., and tied with the University of Kansas on the last day, Norris said. It was a great team effort, and we ended up beating KU by 21 shots. Besides team accomplishments, individuals flourished, and the team's lone senior, Robert Strebb, was named an All-American. Strebb finished his final match with the Wildcats by placing fO titles third in the Big 12 Championship, the best any Cat has done at the event. I started the last day in third place and was trying to beat the leader, but it didn't matter, Strebb said. 'LI was pleased with third. Trailing close behind Strebb was junior Mitchell Gregson, who was the first Cat to win two titles in the same season since PGA Tour pro Aaron Watkins in 2002. It's pretty cool to be compared to him, Gregson said. Maybe I could follow in his footsteps one day. Winning first place twice was not enough for Gregson, and he didn't stop there. Gregson went on to shoot the lowest final round in university history at the Big 12 Championship. I was shocked, Gregson said. lt is neat to be able to have that accomplishment. Coach Norris said he could not have had more faith in his team. When the players feel and believe it, it's better than when a coach feels it, he said. I'll never be able to outsmart them. Belief from the team about the team helps. ,qw mm X W m xi - .5-X a .- 7- Al' -ff ai. zz- L i ,. i,i- l N J ui X X l F f -' . . f i l i' 14 Y 1' H ' ' , ' QQN-'4':'j . I LJ, - , - ' . i 3 .

During the season, both Ramos and Sachse were named to the Academic All Big 12 Cross Country Teams. To qualify for this honor, athletes must maintain a 3.0 grade point average or higher and compete in at least 60 percent of their team's competitions for that season. Of the 134 student-athletes awarded, Sachse and junior Alyssa Bellinder represented the Cats as two of seven to earn a perfect 4.0 GPA. Other accolades the team racked up included both a men's and women's first place finish in the Missouri State Classic Sept. 19.

Doing so allowed the runners to better understand what kind of speed they should keep vyhrle running. Some people just naturally like to vvork harder than others, senior Beverly Ramos said. I came in vyith a plan to get a little better each year, it feels good to be able to say that I have done that. Cnelsy Lueth captured an individual title in the vvomen's 5-kilometer race, where she finished 10 seconds ahead of the next competitor. She also snagged another first place finish in the 5K race at the South Dakota State Invitational Oct. 3. Although Smith didn't directly credit mental toughness to the team's success, he said it was an essential thing for any runner. If you're not mentally tough, then this just isn't the sport for you, Smith said. Talent goes a long Way, but you have to be strong in both body and mind to achieve what you want in cross country. cross country ll207 1365 Qzggimealngrgnbigzt ivlzllglfeag U C C E S S Just a horse, a rider and the judges. Even though equestrian was a team sport, riders competed alone in the ring. Those individual scores Were compiled for a team score, and during the fall season the equestrian team received scattered success. Though riders did Well individually, they did not score Wins on the same days during the fall season, head coach Casie Lisabeth said, so Wins were hard to come by. 'tlt was challenging to see them not doing Well at the same time -that was a frustration - and I think what vve've learned is since our girls were really seasoned, We have a sense of expectation of how things should go, so they were their own Worst enemies. This struggle prompted coaches to bring in a sports psychologist to work with the teams. They received Whole team, Western, hunter seat and individual assistance. uWe saw dramatic improvement, Lisabeth said, Hand We saw all the girls peaking at the right time, and they just really built up in their performances as we went to Big 12 championships and on to nationals. Though riders competed in the ring alone, team unity was a topic that received a lot of attention. We talked about how each player i needs to be a more compassionate and aware player of all the other players on the squad, Alyssa Freeman, Western: rider and senior, said. 'tWe talked about how one team member can be the sparl that just really inspires the team, but th it can work the other Way too. The Western squad Worked with the sports psychologist on issues that coul4 separate student athletes from success, 'tOne of the biggest Cthings we talked aboutj was learning to be in thei moment, Freeman said. t'Sometimes i 1 i -1 208m sports 4 -dent athletes, with weights and sses and all the things we have to do eryday, forget to be in the moment. So taught us that when you're in class Je the best you can be right there in ss. When you're at practice, leave all t other baggage at the door and be isciously aware of the effort you're .ting forth right there in that moment. Despite struggling throughout the As a hunter seat team, the riders rned about control and letting go. 'In our sport, you don't know your Tse usually, so there are a lot of tors you cannot control, Kendall trvin, hunter seat team captain and senior, said. So We focused a lot on controlling the things you can control and letting go of the rest. So letting go of what other people may or may not be saying, letting go of, to an extent, the judges opinion, because it is ajudged sport. Letting go of all of that stuff and just focusing on your ride. fall semester, focusing on the mental side of riding and practicing team communication helped them work together and aim high at nationals, Freeman said. High end-of-season goals worked in favor of the team. The Western team tied the No. l ranked team in the nation, Texas Agzlxl, at the Big 12 Championships and finished fifth at nationals. Freeman qualified for nationals in horsemanship the first individual rider ever from the university. Nationals was an amazing experience, Marvin said. We really came together as a team. lf I had to pinpoint. one thing that was my favorite thing about last year it was competing at nationals. I just can't describe the feeling of the girls there, the atmosphere was great, the attitude was great, the riding was great. individual rider uallfles for nationals equestriantlI209 rlbln Ta ra The smell of food, new rubber and an assortment of perfumes filled the air of the new Salina Recreational Center at the ribbon cutting ceremony on Nov. 5. A crowd of people was there to watch as university officials and philanthropists cut a long purple ribbon to signify the opening of the new Rec Center. After they cut the ribbon, and speeches were given, Dean Dennis Kuhlman and President Kirk Schulz had the privilege of shooting the first basketball. President Schulz took his shots and a ball finally went through the hoop. The new Rec Center had been a vision for awhile, to have a place for the students to go and hang out, Brian Koester, student body president and senior in technology management, said. lt didn't just replace our old Rec Center, but also our student center. The new Rec added basketball hoops, electronic touch screen equipment, a running track, racquetball court and a lounge with ping-pong and pool tables. The basketball court Was clear in the back before Cin the old RecJ Natalie Pankratz, worker at the Rec Center and 2l0llsports junior in management, said. We actually have basketball hoops that retract nowf' In the old Rec Center, one person worked at a time but since the new Rec Center was bigger, more people could work at a time and communicate with each other. The old Rec Center was kind of creepy, Pankratz said. 'ANOW I can see everyone in the weight room and other people using some of the other equipment. Convenience was a benefit to having the new Rec Center. The old Rec was a couple miles off of campus, but the new one was on campus and within Walking distance for many students. lt is a lot easier to get to, Jake Linder, freshman in computer systems and technology, said. You don't have to walk as far, and it is closer to the dorms' With new facilities added in the new Rec Center, other colleges, such as, Brown Mackie College and Kansas Wesleyan started using it on occasion. Along with the surrounding colleges, more alumni started to use it as well. Overall, the new Rec Center was an improvement to the Salina campus, and not only did the students benefit from it, but also the community, alumni and surrounding colleges. -unsun- in Y I ll P' I Q at Enioying the food, and checking out the new workout eduiprnent in the new Rec Center on the Salina campus, people ot the Salina community, K-State otticials and students from both carnpuses showed up tor the ribbon cuttlng ceremony.

As for the future, I don't vvant to do personal training as a career, but like as a side lop, it'd be great forthatf' lyletzgarsaid. lvletzgar had i2 clients, six of whom she met vyith regularly. Lisle Alderron While on an elliptical machine, Amanda McGarry, third-year veterinary medicine student, is coached by Catherine Metzgar, Wildcat Personal Trainer and senior in nutrition and exercise science lvletzgar started working at Peters Recreation Complex as a freshman in January 2006, Lisle Aiderroiw 212 'iisports For Catherine Metzgar, senior in nutrition and exercise science, working out was her job. She worked as a Wildcat Personal Trainer at Peters Recreation Complex, a job she first thought she would never consider. When I was a freshman, I saw an advertisement for a class on how to learn to be a personal trainer, Metzgar said. 'Td been kind of interested in that, and so I thought I'd give it a shot. Even though Metzgar had her doubts about going through the class, since it was mostly upperclassmen, it proved to be worth it, MAt one point I was like 'I don't even know ifI want to do this, ' Metzgar said, but I ended up going through the class and then getting hired as a trainer. Although the class was a start, job satisfaction drew her attention to personal training. When people reach their goals, it's really an amazing feeling, she said. uThey try to give you, as the trainer, the credit, but really it's them. You were there and you helped them, but they're the ones who produced the goal. It's just really exciting to see that. Metzgar not only helped her clients reach their goals, but her philosophy on fitness showed them fitness was an on-going experience they could continue throughout their life. I think a lot of people have the mindset that if you fail, then you're done, she said. My favorite quote is 'Fitness is ajourney, not a destinationf by Amanda Lunn If you get off the road, then just get back on. It's not like you get to a stopping point. Even if you exercise forever and you reach your goal, you're still not done. It's always continuing. The Hexibility of the job was a bonus for Metzgar. Being able to work around her schedule had its advantages, but clients sometimes took advantage of that luxury. 'AI really like the flexibility of the job because it's kind of whatever fits your schedule and then you meet with your client, she said. But at the same time, it's also not so great because if they want to meet at 6 a.m., you can meet them if you're free, but sometimes it will be last minute. It's always work, and you never have free time to yourself. Being a personal trainer changed her outlook on fitness and her career path. She added dietetics as a second major, against her original thoughts on the career. Metzgar said she originally believed dietetics was a major filled with skinny girls who were not going to be personable to their clients. These people are coming to you for help, and they can't relate to you, Metzgar said. HI think as a trainer, it's important that you relate to your clients. Let them know 'Well, I didn't have time to work out today either. I was really busyf Letting them know that you don't always work out or sometimes you don't reach your goal really opened my eyes that you don't have to be perfect. You just need to be able to relate to your clients and show them you're a real person as well. personal trainers ll 213 ln practice, Will McDonnell, forward and freshman in arf, focuses on handling the puck and maneuvering around his teammate Joel Carroll, defenseman and junior in electrical engineering.

The team did valet parking at the museum for several years to help ftmd participation on the team. Inline hockey is a very expensive sport, head coach Jerry Remsbecker said. NA goalie's gear is about fBl,500, and other players, gear might cost 3500-36600, which is considered cheap. Valet parking was not the only fundraising event they participated in. Mostly we valet park for the Beach Museum and Meadowlark Hills Cretirement communityj, but we also sell T-shirts, do car washes and request donations from the alumni, Remsbecker said. This year, thanks to the alumni, we were able to buy the parking shuttle bus at an auction, which we are really excited about. The club was open to everyone and met every Tuesday and Wednesday night for an hour to an hour and a half, Remsbecker said. The difference between club and the competitive group is mostly the amount of time we spend practicing and on our own weight lifting, Coleman Younger, president and junior in political science, said. The competitive team consisted of the top 13 players and competed in tournaments in St. Louis, Denver and Dallas. Currently, the team does not have their own rink, Remsbecker said. However, it is in the near future with the add-on to the Peters Recreation Complex. Once that is built, we will have fewer away games and hold tournaments in our own rink. Eleven years earlier, Remsbecker found the club practicing in the tennis coLu'ts by Goodnow Hall. He became their coach, and developed a love for the game because of the lessons it taught the participants. Everything you can learn in life, you can learn in a hockey rink, Remsbecker said, such as adversity, working with people, leadership and organization, which are the basic skills for lifefl Throughout the year, the club strived for more participants, emphasizing teamwork. I work hard mostly for the love of the game and for my teammates, Younger said. I would never want to see Chris Calvin Qteammate and senior in accountingj walking around and think to myself that I let him down. inline hockey club ll 215 talentisrisiiliiri by Tamara Salisbury In athletics, talent could be a major factor, but it was not the only thing that spelled success. I obviously have some talent, but, definitely, it's not all, Moritz Cleve, sophomore in combined events, f said. Talent brings you to a certain point but wherever that brings you, from that point on you have to work really, really hard to improve. Then, if you do, success is almost guaranteed. On the women's side, success was hard to come by, as the season was riddled with injuries and the team was young. We were very, very young, head coach Cliff' Rovelto said. Placings were not up to standards that we're used to here, but it wasn't a reflection of those athletes, it was a reflection of our decisions Cabout who could competej that made it harder to place. The kids who were out there did a good job, we just didn't have enough of them. Though Loren Groves, senior thrower and Division I honoree for the 2009 all-sport NCAA Woman of the Year, had what she called a dream season the previous season, a shoulder injury in February 2008 limited how well she said she could perform. That kind of put a damper on what I was able to do. I was really bummed out and upset because I Wasn't performing the way I had wished with my goals that I had set prior to the season, she said. But then towards outdoor, I was told I was needing surgery, so I finally sucked it up and realized that I need to be thankful I am even able to finish this season. She did finish strong, placing first at the Big 12 Indoor Championship, 13th at the NCAA Indoor Championships, second at the Big 12 Outdoor Championship and seventh at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. The men's team fared better, though judging by the team scores for the outdoor Big 12 Championship meet it would have been hard to tell. f At the conference level, we maxed out, Rovelto said. There wasn't much more we could have done. For this team, which later placed 13th at nationals, to place sixth in the conference is reflective of the strength of this conference. 2l6llsports 4 W-4 1 iuvw- M 9 'W ' Lk, fx..

I was proud of our football team for putting themselves in the position they were in this evening, Snyder said. I wanted our seniors to understand that they will always be a part of the foundation. I told the underczlassmen that we need some leaders to step up and that we needed to begin to go through the proeess for the future, and hopefully this, among so Illillly other opportunities that We've learned life lessons, applied directly to us on the football field. 9'i6lllsports ff K 7? iff- ,ifiq f i, V zz Q 'fl ii, will ' ' jf if Y, .

Although at first he had no idea where the journey would end, he found football to be the map that guided him to where he needed to be. Shortly after his arrival in Seattle with his mother and sister, Snipes' mother became ill with diabetes and was not able to work any longer. Due to his mother's health, he was forced to make a decision that placed his own future in jeopardy. After my mother got sick, I had a choice to take care of her or go to school, Snipes said. I chose to take care of her, so I sat out my freshman year of high school. Basically, the decision was school or family. Though that year Snipes chose family, he was able to return to school, and his sophomore year of high school, began to play organized football for the first time, excelling despite his amateur status. Everything seemed stable until his mother and sister moved back to California, and once again, Snipes came to a crossroads. He could either move back to California with his family or stay in Seattle by himself and pursue his dreams of going to college and playing football. He chose the latter. My coaches in high school kept telling me I had the chance to go to any school in the nation, he said. It was hard Cdealing with all of those thingsj. I kept it to myself, so I was embarrassed to talk about what was going on. It was hard not being able to turn to somebody for help, and I felt like it was my fault. The hardest thing was trying to get through this with my mom. 238W sports While on his own, Snipes lived on the street, bouncing from shelter to shelter, doing what he could to get by. His senior year, Snipes received offers to play at universities around the nation, but he was not permitted to participate in Division 1 athletics due to NCAA Clearing House qualification rules, which state academic requirements for eligibility to receive an athletic scholarship. He attended Bakersfield College in Bakersield, Calif., instead. Although the hardships Snipes dealt with in high school helped prepare him for situations off the field, he credited junior college football for preparing him for things on the gridiron. CHigh schoolj prepared me more for life than college, he said. Going through all that showed me what it's like to be without anything. The junior college level really prepared me for the Dl level, so Fm glad I went that route. In 2008, Snipes came to the university and brought with him an understanding of the world as Well as the ability to give a helping hand. I see people on the team that go through stuff, and I feel like I can help them out, Snipes said. 'Tm someone they can turn to and talk to. Through his senior year, Snipes continued to use football as his map, and with the support of his coaches, family and team, he gained the confidence to pursue a career in professional football and stay optimistic about the rest of his life. Coach is telling me I have a chance and a shot at the next level, he said, 'ibut if it doesn't Work out, I actually have a son back home, and I'm going to go back home and get acquainted with my family once again. 66 Off the field l felt like l didh't have a family, but OH the field everybody helped me with open arms and they treated me like a family - somebody else l could tum to.

Matz Binter After being eliminated from the NCAA tournament in 2008, the Wildcat volleyball team started the season at the Runza!AVCA Showcase ranked No. 22 in the nation with intentions of topping its achievements from the year before. Doing this proved to be difficult for the Cats, when five players graduated, four of whom were starters. Also, in the Showcase they were set to play the University of Minnesota Gophers and the University of Michigan Wolverines, both top 20-ranked teams. t'We were in a position where We needed to grow up as fast in the preseason as possible so that we would be ready to compete once conference games started, head coach Suzie Fritz said. MI thought playing two teams of that caliber would allow us to find out a lot about where we were as a team at that point. In their first match against the No. 11 Gophers, the Cats forced a fifth set after coming back from a two-set deficit. Junior outside hitter JuliAnne Chisholm recorded a career-high 19 kills in the match. Redshirt freshman outside hitter Kathleen Ludwig added another 18 kills in her debut as a Wildcat Unfortunately, the Cats were unable to capitalize on their comeback, and they ended up losing the match 3-2. The Cats' match against the No. 18 Wolverines was also one that pushed both teams to their limits. Although the Cats lost 1-3, they almost rallied back from being two sets down before the Wolverines ended the match by winning in extra points Z4-26. t'We had two really good matches, even though we lost both of them, Fritz said. MPlaying those teams showed us that We could compete with teams who were amongst the top in the nation. After dropping their two opening matches, the Cats turned things around at the BYU Nike Classic by defeating all three of their opponents and taking volleyball ll 241 home the tournament championship. ln their first match, they swept the Weber State Vniversity Wildcats 3-0. The second match was closer, but the Cats defeated the California Polytechnic University Mustangs 23-1. The Cats closed out the Classic in perfect fashion by beating the Brigham Young University Cougars Z3-2. Three Wildcats were named to the BYU Nike Classic All-Tournament Team: senior middle blocker Kelsey Chipman, senior setter Soriana Pacheco and Chisholm. Chipman also earned the title of Tournament Most Valuable Player. lt was a really special weekend for the team, Chipman said.

Chipman, who recorded l0 blocks in the match, reflected on what it meant to be able to win one of the last Over the next five weeks the Cats won matches of her college career. i'There was a lot of emotion amongst all of the girls in that game, she said. All of the underclassmen knew what the game meant to the seniors, and they all did their best so that the moment was a good one. The Cats were also able to pull out a win in their final match against the Texas Tech University Red Raiders Nov. 28 in Lubbock, Texas, gixing them a l2-l8 overall record. Pacheco reached 2,214 career assists, the eighth-most in school history. More impressively, Pacheco did this in only two seasons. The Wildcats may have fallen far short of topping their achievements from 2008, but Fritz said they continued to work hard from their first match against the Gophers all the way until their final match against the Red Raiders, especially for such a young team. It was an interesting season all the way around, Fritz said. We had some great moments, but we just weren't able to string those great moments together in order to maintain the same level of success that we are accustomed to. volleyball ill 243 VV Q -..,,,, I-.f s . . 'wif 5 as F t X. if . S ,,.,.s,:w 2 ' z Qy Eric Brown A person could have easily assumed that 6-foot-7-inch Rhett Clark belonged on the basketball court. Instead, he took to the sidelines as the co-head manager for the men's basketball team. MI always liked basketball, but I never played it in high school, Clark, senior in political science, said. I stayed involved with the game by managing our team and since I liked doing that I applied to be a K-State basketball manager. He remembered originally being a bit timid while working, in the competitive atmosphere of Division l sports. I still did everything I was required to do, but I definitely stayed in the shadows sometimes, he said. I eventually overcame my shyness and became more outgoing around the people involved with the basketball program. Over the next couple of years, Clark continued to work hard and eventually moved up the managerial ladder. He started in the program as a volunteer, then earned a partial scholarship, then earned a books-and-tuition scholarship, and finally was promoted to the position of co-head manager. Rhett is a really strong leader, Jacob Havercamp, volunteer manager and freshman in agribusiness, said. This job requires a big time commitment, and he has totally embraced that. Clark's schedule was demanding. He said when he was not in class or studying he was doing something for the basketball program. Because of the enorrnity of college basketball, he said each program depended on everyone, from the star player to the water boy, to be successful. Clark said many times the responsibility of keeping a team on its feet fell on the managers - if the basketball program were a finely oiled machine then the managers would have been considered the lubricant. Alf you're not dedicated then this just isn't the job for you. We do the odd-end things that keep stuff running, Clark said. t'Managers don't have a detailed job description we just do what We are told. All the jobs that we do are important in some way, and we know that if we do them well then we are directly contributing to the bettering of the team. Some of the jobs the managers were expected to do included: ensuring players were punctual, doing the team's laundry and sometimes putting the players through drills. By being involved in these things, managers gained a better understanding of the game. Clark said after graduation he wanted to begin coaching high school basketball, and this experience would help him make the transition. uWe learn a lot about the sport from being around it as much as we are, he said. 'Alf one day I do get into coaching I will take the things that I learned from being a manager, and use them while teaching the game. Fellow manager Brian Krueger, junior in industrial engineering, said he could see Clark doing a number of things because he liked to work hard and was always the first to show up and the last one to leave. He always goes out of his way to do things right, and there is something to be said for people who do that, Krueger said. 'LHe's a very intelligent person. He's kind of our go-to guy. Clark was an important part of the team, especially to the players. We've been having a good year and most of that comes from us staying cohesive, junior guard Jacob Pullen said. Clark does a good job of knowing what his role is and also a good job at helping out the team however he can. I'll always cherish this great opportunity I've been given.

HWe stunk - no disrespect to Loyola because their kids played their hearts out, Martin said. MWe were the worst team in the country yesterday in practice, and We deserved to play as bad as We did. I hope We got embarrassed by it. It was the worst practice I have been associated with since I have been coaching basketball.

After the game, head coach Deb Patterson said the Red Wolves controlled the majority of the game and also thanked the fans for their support during the game. Statistically, they owned just about every phase of the game, so I give them credit for coming in here and getting a road win, she said. I appreciate our fans being here, and I thought they did their very best to try and provide us with energy and give us the emotion to get over the top. After their overtime loss, the Cats went on the road for three games, two of which they lost, before coming back home for the Commerce Bank Wildcat Classic.

Afterward, the Cats maintained a concentrated attitude about their performance and looked forward to their upcoming games.

In doing so, she also found a job that allowed her to connect with all the women of her hall. She was one of two RAS on the first floor of Ford Hall in her iirst year of the job. Swnatmmemnpnofmmgam? Q A: I really like that I am able to connect with all of the girls. It makes it easier to identify with them since Ford is an all-girls hall, because we don't have to be self-conscious about impressing boys. We can just be ourselves. Q: What is the biggest perk of being an RA? A: Pm not going to lie, the best part is definitely the free room and board. My family and I were looking for ways to take care of all of the financial aspects of my college life, and this provided a great opportunity. Q: Is it hard to be an enforeer? A: to deal with conflict well. I am a direct person, No, not really, because I feel like I am able so I handle things in a direct manner and that really cuts down on the amount of problems that I have. Q3 Was there any training that yon had to go through in order to be able to have this job? A: We go through a ton of training for the job. We are required to go to inservices while we are working, and in our first semester on the job we are required to take a class to help prepare us for the job. We learn about how to deal with everything from planning a party to suicide threats. Qs Has there been anything happen this year that is memorable for yon? A: We did mud runs this year. Every time it rained we would all go outside, run around and get super muddy. Afterwards, a couple of others and me would wash everybody's clothes, and then we all would go hang out for a couple of hours. It was a blast. Q: Have there been any practical Kes that you were played this year? O a Chucky doll in random places throughout the building. It got to be a little creepy after Earlier this year somebody kept setting a while, especially when it eventually made its way in front of 'my door. It's pretty funny looking back on the whole thing.

With a bowl of virgin sangria Ccranberry juice, orange juice and lemon-lime sodaj in the middle of the table and a smaller bowl of dark green, lumpy paste at the end of the table, the henna party, organized by the fifth floor resident assistants, was ready to begin. This is our second year doing the henna party, said Diana Reichuber, resident assistant and senior in family studies and human serwices. I originally got the idea from a friend of mine that was an RA in Ford Hall. The activities of the night started with mingling while drinking punch and making the henna. The henna powder was mixed with water in a small bowl, then put into a plastic bag to be squeezed out and iuade into designs on the skin. The paste stan out as a deep green, but as it dried on the skin, it turned brown. Lauren F. Elder, sophomore in chemical engineering, said she had never gotten a henna tattoo before but was excited to. She also said it made her think she might get a real henna tattoo. Whoever was next to get their tattoo would eitl pick a tattoo that others had looked up online or let the person doing the design choose. Most of th designs included flowing lines and flowersg they were often located on either the wrist or hand. HI thought the idea of a henna party was really unique and interesting, Hannah Ozier, sophomc in communication sciences and disorders, said.

Living in a coed environment, you get to meet ne guys, and while all-girls is OK, it's good to Je a mixture of different genders so you can have igger group of friends. The hall went coed for the first time, and while N residents knew no different, but not all former :idents were content with the new arrangement. MThe atmosphere before the transition was very axed and fraternal, Patrick Short, former ssident and senior in architectural engineering, d. lt was easy to make friends, and there was pressure to act a certain way because girls were t around. Short, who lived in Marlatt until last year, 'ed the camaraderie, and he said he wished the :idents would have had more influence on the Zision. He chose to live off-campus his senior ir, though he said his decision was not solely Fi! dependent on Marlatt's transition. Representatives from Housing and Dining said they made the change to meet demands. Nick Lander, assistant director of Housing and Dining, said less than tive percent of incoming men requested all-male living arrangements. Lander also said the department was working with the Honors Program to create an Honors Cluster community and needed an environment where men and women could live together in both standard and suite-style rooms. While some former residents did not return due to the changes, Lander said overall the Marlatt population saw the change as a good thing. 'AI know there were a few students who were upset about the change, mostly students who had lived in Marlatt for many years, he said. 'kHowever, some still decided to live there again this year. In fact, some students even asked me, 'What took so long?' I think change is good when we can better serve our students with their success at K-State, so as long as changes are made with that in mind.

The Clovers spent the night finalizing little details and decorating the room as well as a set of plates and glasses. We had to BeDazzle a set of plate Ware With pink, black and White champagne flutes to go along with it, Riley said. L'She'll get to keep those. Those dishes were for Lindsey Morrical, senior in family studies and human services. CI lovedl all the pink and sparkles and being with my friends and sisters, Morrical said. :Tm the Clovia diva. While the seniors were eating, the pledges also had to entertain them. The seniors had the opportunity to call out skits they wanted to see. For one of the skits We had to be men, Riley said. She was imitating one of the Kappa Sigma guys from our homecoming skit. The skit required the used of plastic Wrap to make it more realistic. Other skits they had to perform included the house flooding from a few years earlier, the ltsy Bitsy Spider and the Wes Dance. In the end, with the exception of the one broken glass, the day was a success. At the beginning I Was dreading this, Knickerbocker said. At the end it wasn't so bad. They're wearing the crowns.

Incoming freshman could receive the one-time award, which was not membership dependant. The scholarship went out to students who had the qualities of leadership, scholarship and service. Linn said he considered the scholarship applicants good potential members for Acacia because they were the cream of the crop of the incoming freshman, Linn said. A selection committee reviewed th scholarship applications and invited the finalists to the house to interview. Linn said Acacia provided him with good networking contacts, including a source that helped him receive an internship with Conoco-Phillips, but the most important thing about being in Aca was the brotherhood.

' The concert was closed to the public, so the only ones in attendance were ADPi's. This led to personal and relaxed environment for the Women, Luthi said. The event was set up in the living room, in our own house, so no one was afraid to make a fool of themselves, she said. Entertainers usually have the attitude of being casual and fun, and he got everyone involved. I think it was a huge success. Overall, the ADPis Who attended said it Went Well and they enjoyed the Sisterhood, Wilson said. A bunch of girls said they'd come by and stay for 10 minutes then leave, Wilson said, but nobody ended up leaving. It was by far the best sisterhood event We've ever had at our sorority.

CThe endowment fundj has worked out rather ely, he said. Hlt has just grown and grown and -wn. It helps people get through school, and anymore these days, that's not an easy task. The endowment fund had grown so much that a board of directors distributed 35222780 through 55 different scholarships and grants. Current students did not contribute to the fund, but benefited from it, which began a cycle of generosity that Muir said funded the scholarships nearly completely.

Some of them, without it, wouldnt have made it through school. A year doesn't go by that somebody doesn't call me up and say, 'I want to establish a scholarship' We're starting to run out of reasons to do that, but we keep thinking about different ways. For Jared Schnefke, president and senior in accounting, the endowment fund showed the importance of the involvement in the fraternity. As president, he received a scholarship that paid for his house bill. He said this funding kept him from needing a job, which allowed him to keep his grades up, better serve the chapter and get more involved on campus. I think it's unique in that there's really no other organization locally, or l'd be surprised to find one nationally, that's so focused on giving back to its members, he said. Alt really emphasizes the significance and the importance of the organization we're a part of to have financial backing for that. lf you do well in school, then you're rewarded for that., if you serve the chapter, you're rewarded for it. The endowment fund is an outlet to financially reward, or award, our members for giving back to the fraternity. In addition to several scholarships and grants for ATOS, seven scholarships Csome with more than one A dispiav case recognizes donations of both Bill Muir, president of the Alpha Tau Omega endowment fund and university assistant vice president, and ATO, represented bv Jared Schnefke, president and senior in accounting. lStudentsi don't do nduch novv for raising those funds, but it fosters an appreciation from us, so vvhen vve do have the opportunity to give back, it's one of the first places vve go tof' Schnefke said, Lists Afcerrorv 290llIpeople recipienti went to students not in the fraternity for reasons like excelling in the College of Architecture, Planning and Design and holding positions of leadership in the K-State Student Union. MThe thing that's really neat to me is we're extending it outside our chapter, Schnefke said. We're trying to recognize those on campus who are deserving of an award. Peter Boos, fonner president and graduate student in architectural engineering, received several ATO scholarships, including the Bensman Presidents Award, the llolstrom Memorial Outstanding Senior Award and the Trustees' Brotherhood Award, in addition to the Winter scholarship awarded for leadership and service to the Union. ul am paying for my own school, so the scholarships were beneficial for me and helped pay for my schooling and get me through some tough financial times through the five years l've been here, he said. Ml have full intention of being able to support. ATO and K-State in my future endeavors. Hopefully, l will be in a financial capacity to do so. l look forward to being able to 'repay my debt' to the fraternity and the community of K-State through donations and see it as a privilege to be able to do so. azyfm V, l ' Dame Domfzfzll Ryan Ellavl -inane Elseulwrvr Slnayxnefr Karl Buslvwcmsfa Aurvvlmslrailom ' all Ovzzvlamd Pam, Karl Bal- new Aflvwwszratlovv U SO l:la, Ka'- Bt 9 ww: all--' sfat 0 ' SO ,ste Eacnqrf.. l-mtg' 'wsop 4a' CQ v f'Xul'nee'lagg ' .L Paul Fangman ...... ..,,.... ....

The girls were saying that the turnout was really good all night, she said. They said it was actually better than last year. There was a consistent crowd throughout the night for sure. Fiesta Feed, held at other Alpha Xi chapters across the country, gave the university's chapter something in common with other chapters, but Alpha Xis kept having the philanthropy event because it fit their house so Well. Fd say it is good for our chapter in particular because we are - compared to other sororities - a more relaxed, chill, laid-back house, Jessica Schult president and senior in political sciencl said. This is an event that would be something that our girls would like to participate in if it was put on by anothe sorority or fraternity. lt's something oui girls enjoy doing because it matches so well with their personalities. It's really something that reflects the style of our house and how We are naturally. Hannah Hoisington, public relation W 'Ki' fm V H' ww, Mo M' A Q .ff . ,M , , ff' vw , my L :W . :fy ,?g5E!V!

I like having people that have never been in a greek house get to come and see it's not an exclusive thing, she said. A lot of people are kind of intimidated by sororities, and we like to have fun and just have people come and hang out. We have a lot of friends that are not in the greek system, and I don't feel like it should be an exclusive thing, so my favorite thing is just seeing those people come and hang out and meet all these people that I love. Adding raffle tickets gave this year's event a twist, but the biggest change was the recipient of the money. Alpha Xi's national headquarters changed the house's philanthropy from Choose Children - various childrens philanthropies - to Autism Speaks -- an organization that works for autism awareness and donates to autism research and support groups for families of children with autism, Schultz said. Katie E. Murphy, assistant philanthropy chair and sophomore in history, said she thought Fiesta Feed would continue to grow. 'll think this year was, and in the following years is going to be, a lot bettr because we did change our philanthrop to Autism Speaks, she said. Alt relates more to people. The following day, Alpha Xis continued the cause by attending the j Walk Now for Autism in Kansas City, A For S4 A or 51515 including a'l?shirt- people come into the Alpha Xi Delta house for the annual Fiesta Feed Oct. 9. One of the vvavs Alpha Xis volunteered was by serving food.

Many Changes took place since Conrad and Piper lived at Beta. Cooper Mach, alumni chair and lunior in mass communications, said there were several changes to the house itself, such as the pit, the previous living room, vvhich had since been converted into a laundry room, The most obvious thing that has changed has been the removal ot hazing, Mach said. Alums were not shy about sharing their stories ot hazing, and it sounded pretty brutal. Lisiefiliderton share memories and create new ones. 'We said a few words about Beta 1 then handed out the prizes from golf tournament, Cooper Mach, mni chairman and junior in mass nmunications, said. We are known as I singing fraternity, so we had a special et of Robert Hamilton Cfreshman in ,sic educationl and his father sing a iple of Beta songs and then lead the ,ole room in a few more songs. The banquet gave the men the ortunity to mingle with their thers and hear stories about Beta im alumni.

'tHe graduated in 1958 and it was amazing the stories that he told that demonstrated the changes in society in the past 50-plus years. Some of his stories also sounded eerily similar to stories that run around the house today. With 85 registered alumni in town to spend time the men spent together, there was never a dull moment. It was also an opportunity for current Betas to learn about what it meant to be a Beta. I think that seeing 12 men from the pledge class of 1971 talking and laughing and telling stories really helped show our members that our mission for lifelong fraternal brotherhood exists and isn't just some empty claim, Mach said.

It wasn't the praise that makes it my best memory, it was the fact that they appreciated the opportunity to reunite with their brothers and share memories with each other along the lines of a shared bond. It really reminded me of the camaraderie that fraternities promote. 66 I think that seeing 12 men from the pledge class of 1971 talking and aughing and telling stories really helped shovv our members that our mission for lifelong fraternal brotherhood exists and isn't just some empty claim.

Before being named ambassador, Larson had to go through three rounds of interviews, including a final presentation to a faculty and alumni panel about the homecoming theme, Wildcat Frontier. Larson said the most stressful part of this process was waiting for the invitation to participate in the next round after each interview. Though she was named ambassador in October, her stint began in January and lasted for one calendar year. Larson said the biggest part of her job, which she shared with Ryan Wilkerson, male ambassador and senior in finance, was to visit with alumni and prospective students. llll llll lifted towarc sunuurt system drives alngasad Kar' - FR Kan Kan . :R l Kan W 'JU Kan Jessrca Boesche Olathe, Kan l Journallsrn and Mass Connrnunlcanons 0 FR l Barley Borck .

It helped that the Gamma Phis who lived in-house informed the freshmen Gamma Phi Betas gather around a table of treats atmenHmbwemuwny KaHeLucasiumorm marketing, said the party vvas different from other sisterhood events Gamma Phi hosted, This vvas the first time we did an event around a hoHdayf Lucas smd. For sisterhood events, we usually goto differ- entpmces.FornNsone though, it vvas different because we decorated the houseforeveryone to come over and we had fun. Matt Castro illllllll I l lllll who were new to the sorority. Sisterhood means with the bond you have between the new girls, you will always have somebody to call or talk to, Cheryl Yacenda, freshman in business, said. After the festivities took place, some of the girls took off their costumes and did homework, some went out for the night and others settled in to watch what some would call a classic Halloween movie, Hocus Pocusf' 66 Usually dressing up is a big deal. We have a closet called the 'crescent cutie closet,' that vve keep our costumes in. We like to dress up and be goofy.

Sisterhood actixdties occurred four times in each semester and brought the sisters of the house closer each time. We do a variety of activities, said Torie Reilly, vice president. of development and senior in agricultural education. We've played Bingo before, and in the past they've decorated cookies. Last month, we decorated cups. Going green, everyone got their own cup and decorated it, and they used that instead of using plastic cups. Sisterhood activities were not mandatory, but they were offered to all the women in the house. With l40 members, the Thetas did not always know or have time to get to know each other, which Reilly said was the purpose of the activities.

Agricultural Ed ti ' SR HA lot of times we get caught up in our own lives, and we don't take time to stop and see what all of our sisters are doing. said Shawna Cikanek, intramural chairperson and sophomore in pre-veterinary medicine. 'The Csisterhood activitiesl I've gone to, I've taken things away from it and gotten to know my sisters better. They're definitely worth the time, Erica Volker, senior in geography, said when she was a freshman living in the dorms, she found it difficult to connect with the girls in the house, so as a senior she participated in the sisterhood activities to meet more of her sisters. When you get the freshmen involved, they feel 3 Q . P. . T ' Q p , Q.. rg like they're part of the house more and they feel more included, and that helps everyone out, Volkl said. Alt gives the upperclassmen a chance to talk to the younger girls, see what they would like to happen with the house, get to know them better ai make more friends, which is always fun. Not only did the activities benefit the Thetas an their relationships with their sisters, they helped t. sorority as a whole. The closer you are to the sisters in the house, the better the chapters going to be, Cikanek said. The more involved the whole chapters going to b and the more pride you're going to have. How muc pride a house has is going to show on campus. 66 Tney're just a great vyay to meet upperclassmen and get to know tnem better, because as a tresnman I dioln't knovv very many people. lt just brings together people and I love tnat and usually tney're pretty fun. Erica lblker senior in geography To decorate the stairs of Theta, Allison Pfeifer, junior in management, vvraps the banister with tlnsel. We have M10 glrls inthe house, and not everyone lqnovvs each other or has had the opportunity to get to knovv each other, Flellly said. Sisterhood activity really allovvs tlme tor all of us to get to knovv each other. lt's not mandatory, you don't have to be here. lt's just for fun. Chelsy Luerh 'va Megan Glynn .. ,, .. ....,..

The Kappa Kappa Gammas' liday party welcomed current ppas, alumnae and their children had Christmas dinner and made to start off the night, Jessica Everhart, junior in accounting, said. L'Later, We split into groups and adopted families for the holiday. Kappas formed small groups and chose a family to buy Christmas dinner and gifts forthe adopt-a-family activity. The Women chose to adopt a family rather than participate in the typical White elephant gift exchange. 'flt should be a fun experience to go shopping for little kids, Sadie Roesner, freshman in open option, said. CIO makes you feel special that you are helping people. The Kappas said they enjoyed adopting families together because it also brought them together. I feel like I can be friends with every girl in the house, Sarah Anderson, sophomore in animal sciences and industry, said. With children ol' all ages running around the house, laughing among friends and the quiet crackling of the fireplace program on the projector, the Kappa holiday party came to an end.

The ll members of the pledge class cleaned up after football and basketball games and helped alumni with tasks like chopping wood and hauling leaves to raise money for the January date party. Mllraditionally, it's a two-part deal, J .P. Holley, recruitment chair and freshman in business administration, said. 'tln the morning the house goes out to a bar for breakfast. For instance this year we're going to the Purple Pig. And ition then, after that, they normally go out tr a barn and have a party, have a deejay come out. That's the main event. The pledge class served breakfast to the active members on the morning of the partg Bringing the date party back gave ml purpose to his place in the house, Derei Miller, pledge educator and sophomor in business administration, said.

Candidates Andrew Huschka, senior in industrial engineering, and Laura R.

The competition was more involved and knew the process. We d our own thing that was new and had never been done. There was a ton of politics, and it was cutthroatf' Huschka knew they would have to try something new and exciting to stand out. A lot of the things we did got people involved, he said. We tried to reach out to other groups not involved. We hel rallies at bars, and they were so packed we didn't have any more room. So many students were behind us and donated time and money. Huschka and White made it past the preliminaries but lo by 400 votes in the final voting.

Rezner said he was planning on going into a program called High School to Flight School instead of college, but in January 2008 he learned he was not accepted into the program. The news had Rezner looking at colleges. He heard about a Web site MI had never thought of moving to Kansas, but I saw K-State had a good ROTC program, Rezner said. My first trip to K-State was April I8, 2008 Ile had been talking to Phi Delt and While on his visit to Kansas, Brad Richardson, former president and senior in mechanical engineering, let him stay in the Phi Delt. house for three days. Rezner started attending that year, then joined Phi Delt, and the next year became president. 'LI first thought of running for president because I had really been taking an active role in the house, he said. I felt We Rezner's plans for the fraternity includ' helping the community, counteracting negative publicity and making people mo excited about Phi Delt. t'IfI hadn'tjoined Phi Delt, I would have met my girlfriend, and I feel it hz made me more responsible, Rezner said. Phi Delt has really accelerated my development. Though before coming to the universit his focus was only on flying and ROTC, Rezner said he felt everything happened lm the best.

Vehicles a safe distance away? Check. In 2006, Aaron Hickey, Phi Gamma Delta and senior in sociology, started a project that would last throughout his college career: painting the Fiji letters. The Fiji letters are basically like the Google sign, Hickey said. T hey change, they appeal to the public. I know it catches everyones eye because it's right the road. People always ask me, there on 'When are you going to change the letters?' and 'When are we going to see something new'?' It's not just students, it's older people and locals, and they all think it's something fascinating to drive by.

They began with simple seasonal designs. Celebrating Christmas, I'd paint the J like a candy cane or something, just to try to be creative, Hickey said. October we'd do orange and black, and we tried doing a jack-ol-lantern face. Not every time they'd turn out right. We started otf simple, with plain colors, and then as I got into it I got more confident in doing more daring things, like taping off things and new patterns, and now in between seasons I'm doing unique designs. Hickey's favorite design was when he painted the letters each a neon color, taped over that in diagonal patterns and then covered that with black. When the tape was removed, the diagonal neon pattern showed through. He made it a point to take a photo of each design to prevent repeats. The process took two hours, drying included. Once, Hickey had to repeat the process multiple times in a week. It was tampered with four times in one week, he said, 'iso I repainted it four times in one week, and then I gave up for while because I got tired of it. I just knew someone would paint over it. Tampering was a common issue. Sometimes sororities will pour sprinkles on them or paint them red. Ilickey said. But sometimes people will just pour black paint on them, just to ruin them. tif it's greek rivalryj I kind of look 0 it like they want me to change it, like they want to see something else. Tampering aside, Hickey said painting the letters had become important to him. 'tIt's kind of fun to be creative like that, to be appreciated, he said.

Phi Kapp led the campus Movember movement, the the month as a way to recognize the efforts of all the participants. Half of all donations went to the Movember Foundation for research, and the other half went to Lance Armstrongs LIVESTRONG Foundation. However, the Phi Kapps did not raise any money because their efforts were not focused fundraising effort that began in Australia on fundraising, Hartsig said. Instead, they as a way to bring the mustache - 'mo' in Australia - back into fashion. Phi Kapps first heard about the fundraiser at their national convention. It's pretty much No-Shave November except just a mustache, Ian Hartsig, president and senior in architectural engineering, said. What they have been trying to do... is make the mustache for men's health what the pink ribbon is for womens health, really make it a symbol where if you see a guy that's growing his mustache out in November, it's not just a weird thing to do - it's a statement.

MPeople get really excited about this, and it doesn't involve much, Evgeniy Shishkin, junior in chemical engineering, said. t'Basically, you just have to grow out your mustache. The hardest part would be getting people to be involved in talking about the purpose behind this. Though the month-long event was focused on participation, Eric Fiedler, philanthropy chair and junior in architectural engineering, said he hoped for even more people. Since it is the first year, we didn't get as many people as we would have liked to, but a couple fraternities e-mailed me back and said they were participating, : I thought that was cool, he said. I thir we mainly just wanted to get it out ther The Hrst year it's just a test run. Hartsig said the Phi Kapps participat because of the good cause. t'Growing out a mustache doesnit exactly help the frat boy image, Hartsi said, but it's actually a really legit caus and it's something they're trying to get going to provide some help behind the men's health movement and raise awareness for things that people are ve reluctant to talk about. I mean, prostate and testicular cancer are things people don't really like to hear about, but they' also things that one out of every six guj will experience, so it is a big deal. For Shishkin, the biggest concern was getting men to pay attention to their health. There are foundations such as the breast cancer foundations Cfor womenj, but the men don't really have anything I concerning mens health, Shishkin said. is a high possibility for men to have cancer or testicular Cancer, and st of the time men just don't really care, 't find the time to see a doctor or care their involvement increased their own awareness and knowledge of n1en's health issues. The presentations and getting on the their health enough.

They have taught me that they will each contribute to society in their own way. Clarissa Howley, transition officer and senior in English A lot of times in greek chapters, seniors are so focused on their future careers, Niederee said. uThey move out of the house, and they can get disconnected because a lot of things that are happening in greek houses don't seem relevant to them. lt's great to get to see each other again, and it's a time for us to hang out, which We don't get to do as much as when we used to live together. Pi Phi recognized that seniors' priorities did not always match up with the rest of the house, and it was one of the only sororities to establish a position to act as a liaison between seniors and the house. Clarissa Howley, transition officer and senior in English, said acting as the link for seniors to house activities was important because it kept seniors involved. Howley coordinated events like Christmas decorating, informative financial advice meetings and wine tasting parties to allow seniors to gain information they needed for life after graduation while still obtaining information about current house events. 'Seniors have other interests and have been around the block, Howley said. We know how the house works and what works best. These events help us know what everyone is excited about, and it's great to see the girls together again and again. They continued decorating, gently placing ornaments on the tree and laughing over the experiences the house had afforded them. Seniors stay connected because even though we don't live-in, it's still our house, and we miss it,'l Laura Taylor, senior in communication sciences and disorders, said. i'The second you come back over here it feels like you never left. This house has done so much for us, given us so many opportunities. This is how we met, and even as alumni we will come back and take pride in the house. Lindsey Markle .......

Alt was literally just a flood of calls after that. It was finally for sure at about 10:45 a.m. That's when I talked to a police officer who said, fWe haven't released that information yet, but yeah, it was him. ' Garlow hadjust finished taking a few friends home and was tired, so he pulled over and fell asleep in a parking lot. The ear overheated and caught fire, and the fumes killed him before the flames, Bastin said. After the accident, the men found what Garlow's parents called uThe Axioms of Life in his room. He wrote about life lessons he had learned, the things he cherished the most and the type of person he wanted to be. Pike framed them and gave them to his parents.

MWith the concert, we had a big-name band where MTV came out, and did a special on the band. His family came out and we all danced like crazy, did a little bump and grind. It Wasjust great. It was something that was very special to remember him and honor his memory really well. The Pikes also Wanted to do somethin that would allow the fraternity to and remember him more oft en. So, they dedicated an oak tree in his honor Sept. l A couple weeks before the accident, a big storm came through and knocked down the oak tree in our front yard, and the chapter felt and agreed that it would be really special to dedicate an oak tree in memory of him, Bastin said.

Sigma Nu changed that for six orities by sponsoring a competition ong them to see who would take home first Pumpkin Trophy. 'It's for the Flint Hills Breadbasket of sas, Ben Post, philanthropy chair sophomore in economics, said. It's rority competition, and there are five al events, three going simultaneously. Sigma Nu started Halloween Harvest as ew philanthropy involving sororities. t said they knew they wanted to put on event during the Halloween season, but ning the activities took time. lt was mostly sitting down figuring what we wanted to do, a lot of Michael Sullivan, freshman in hotel and restaurant management, said. Getting the materials and stuff, it wasn't hard. Just pumpkins and little things that we needed to get set up. Sigma Nus coached Pi Beta Phi, Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Delta and Alpha Xi Delta in Halloween Harvest. Winning the Pumpkin Trophy, was not the only incentive to become involved in the event. The sorority that donated the most canned goods, bought the most T-shirts, had the loudest cheering and had the best turnout the activities won the Spirit Award. The events, which ranged from pumpkin carving to bobbing for apples, created friendly competition among the sororities. For some, the drive to win came from a previous event. Theres alot of rivalry going on, Madison Barnes, Kappa Delta and sophomore in life sciences, said. We lost Watermelon Bust, so we decided to come out here and try to win this. Corn on the Bob, which included tossing candy corn into a teammates mouth and another teammate bobbing for apples then proceeding to throw a pie in their coach's faces, caught a lot of attention from spectators. William Godsey, freshman in secondary education, was the coach for the Alpha Xi Delta team. Godsey said he was happy with his team's performance. We did pretty Well, Godsey said. 'Tm very pleased with the pie smashing in the face that was a good time. They did all the other events and they did really well in those too.

Seventy of us boarded a coach bus for the two- hour trek to Kauffman Stadium with our wonderful driver Milton who had only two rules: no kegs and no glass. When we arrived we were very well hydrated, all but two people made it into the game. A strange sequence of events led to Logan Cfhome, sophomore in open optionj locking himself in the bus bathroom and being unable to release the locking mechanism. Milton later told us he thought he was going to break the door as Logan tried to iind another way of getting out of the tiny bathroom, as he had been stuck in the bathroom for well over 30 minutes. Meanwhile, the rest of us were in the game cheering quite loudly when an anonymous brother then fell down several rows of seats. Security attempted to apprehend this member, but his brothers escorted him to a safer area. This safer area was found after several sleek maneuvers and ended with being escorted out of George Brett's exclusive bar after George himself decided to be a tattletale even though the brothers were on their best behavior. Needless to say Milton got a pretty large tip.

He was the bouncer at The Salty Rim in Aggieville. Keegan Wiens, Theta Xi social chair and senior in accounting, sta11ed his job in lVIay and worked a couple nights a week. Some days, like the day of the football game against the University of Kansas, were busier than others. But since he worked with people, he still had the opportunity to see his friends and fellow Theta Xis. Most of the time tmy friendsj come in early, like from 9 to ll p.m. it's slower, and I can kind of hang out with them and do my job at the same time, Wiens said. It does suck because I work a lot of weekends, which is when I would like to go out. Allowing his friends to come socialize added some excitement to the evenings, but he still had to enforce the rules about not letting in his underage friends. He said he had seen many interesting fake IDs in his first eight months working there. 'Once or twice a night I'll either have someone who has an ID and it's real they're,just underage, or I'll have an ID that isn't their face, he said.

But then it was fun because you got to see the kids' reactions when it was finished. And it started to warm up throughout the day, so it was easier to chisel.

QResidentsj are always happy to see her. I understand what they go through with families and school. I've taken her with me to hand out journals, and we ended up setting play-dates. You go from your job to bonding with their family. Most residents will ask me about Maggie before asking about me. The feeling of community was important to residents, whether they met because of classes, for a playfdate orjust passing on the street. Once you meet all the different people, they will always say hi, said Andrew P. Werner, assistant coordinator for community development and graduate student in camaraderie. It's unlike anything else on a college campus because you have grad students, international students, families and kids. Here you can meet a doctorate student and a 5-year-old. The complex always provided the comfort of knowing people were there to help While still having the feel of what it was like to live in an apartment, Werner said. Jardine had three neighborhoods: Denison, West End and Plaza. Each neighborhood had monthly programs. The goal was to get to know people who also lived in the neighborhood through activities like barbeques, bowling, movie nights, pumpkin carving, ice cream socials and late-night breakfasts. 'iWe try to do complex-wide rivalry, like the opening Olympics, said Nick Lang, assistant coordinator for apartment living and graduate student in counseling and student development We try to get people together.

Halloween marked the eighth annual gathering for their philanthropy Trick-or- Treat So Others Can Eat. They went door-to-door throughout the community to collect canned goods for the Salina Rescue Mission. To cover more ground, the Phi Delts teamed up with Alpha Delta Zeta and Alpha Theta Chi, sororities from Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kan., to make the rounds. 'tl enjoyed building inter-campus relationships with Bethany College, Scott M. Summers, president and junior in engineering technology, said. It was nice to pair up with another college and invite them to do something with us, so they can in turn invite us to do things. ln a Salina, Kan., neighborhood, Antonio Heam, senior in computer systems engineering, Rachel Bouza, Bethany College student, Emily Zimmerman, Bethany College student, and Keyvn Alquist, junior in technology, wait for a resident to read a card that explains their trick- orftreating objective.

Some were expecting us and had bags ready to go for us, Justin Schnieder, junior in professional pilot, said. We carri them in trash bags, and when they got full or too heavy we dropped them off at the car. Then we went back and got more. The students went to all the houses in half a square mile, collecting 920 pounds of food. t'Wc enjoy doing this each year, and the rescue mission really appreciates it because we donate such a large chunk o food, Summers said.

Outside, headlights from cars on Stmset Avenue occasionally broke the darkness. Inside, soft light illuminated the faces of about 30 students gathered for 'lhesday night worship at the K-State Wesley Center. On Nov. 17, the night after the first snow, a fire glowed in the limestone fireplace. Following opening announcements, attendees greeted one another, and then the voices of McKenna Hall, Worship leader and junior in English, and Sarah Hodges, senior in communication sciences and disorders, blended with the keyboard and drums in the opening song, 'Prepare the Way.

It's kind of be the same way with our group. We grow together in God and with each other, in. our own place near campus.

It's always really exciting when we start a new organization or even when we bring back an old one because it is a completely fresh start, Michael Slaughter, Delta Tau Delta nationals consultant, said. Its all brand-new guys, and they have the full backing of a national organization and all the resources. In order to receive chapter status, a colony had to meet the university's all-fraternity recruitment statistic - an average of 55 members. Although re-colonizing was a difficult process, the 29 founding fathers were up to the challenge.

Guys who were willing to understand that this was a unique experience and that colonizing isn't something easy. lt's not just going into a house that's already built and saying 'I Want to be a member' and just getting a room. That's something that these gentlemen understood and they're willing to take that responsibility. Chris A. Jordan, recruitment chair and sophomore in economics, said he believed that recruiting men was crucial at this stage in the colonization. Many of the men recruited by Delt had not had previous interest in the greek system until they received this opportunity. The vision is to break down the traditional greek stereotype, Jordan said. You see fraternities as places where you can go and party. We understand the social aspect, but we want it to be more than that. We want i to be most of all a brotherhood. The Delts faced many challenges, which included the difficulty of communication without living together However, the colony had plans for futu communal living. 'iWe're going to look for an apartmer complex, possibly one that will hold maybe 40 members with hallways with the doors that go to the hallways there, Sardina said. It will be just like a fraternity house, and I think it'll be very helpful to the organization as far a communication goes. I l alternative frateirnit A man in a toga with a yellow rose led two students to scavenger hunt checkpoints Dec. 6. At the end, Ben Deghand, eshman in applied music, and Charles nhnston graduate student in theatre, scovered the site for their initiation into elta Lambda Phi. Ten members made DLP one of the aallest fraternities on campus, but they ed events and alumni participation make their name and mission as a ogressive fraternity known. Obviously we're not going to be the ggest fraternity on campus, so support om our alumni is what really helps make things happen, Zach Ozbun, nior in microbiology, said, Mand I think s come to a point where people are specting us This is the Kappa class, and ith this class we're here to stay. Ozbun said their progressive label meant more than might be expected. 'tCIt'sj not just what people call fthe gay fraternity, ' he said. 'tThat's not all it is. Most students don't see it like that, but 'progressive' means it's open to heterosexual men, bisexual, gay, all those things. Deghand said even though his decision to pledge was rushed, he was happy with his decision. It was definitely one of those things where l've never felt so accepted, he said. I feel this is my family. I am one of those men who doesn't have my family behind me 100 percent. So this year I haven't had my holidays with my family, I had my holidays with Delta Lambda Phi, and I wasn't depressed or anything. I was at home with them. Johnston compared the progressive community to other universities. Delta Lambda Phi is the powerhouse behind the gay community in Manhattan, grows Hainliiii-Piilei ln the K-State Student Union, Delta Lambda Phi pledges Ben Deghand, freshman in applied music, and Charles Johnston, graduate student in theater, inspect the next clue in their scavenger hunt. Delta Lambda Phi should not be looked at as a weak traternity because ot membersj' Johnston said. From my past experience with ditferent schools, its probably one ofthe more povveriul fraternities l've run into in terms of influence on campus and community. Deghand discovered DLP at the tall Activities Carnival and Johnston learned about it at a drag show presented by DLP and Gamma Flho Lambda. Chelsy Lueth ion he said. uBeing a master's student, I have a little bit different perspective than most of the brothers do, because at the school I went to there wasn't a hint of a progressive movement. It just didn't exist. And if you ask the older, gay community in Manhattan, they know Delta Lambda Phi because of some of the outreach events we do. In addition to building a stronger chapter, the men said it was important for them to develop strong ties in the gay and straight communities through outreach events such as the pledge class' celebration of World AIDS Day in Aggieville. HI think it's important to know that as a whole, Delta Lambda Phi is a friend to all, Ozbun said. Thats what we strive for and what we continue to do. In bringing in new men and new members, continuing to do outreach on campus and in the community, it's what we do. It's second nature now. independent living H 405 Hulnn eelllliltux by Stephanie Mikuls Much like colleges all over the country, the university was home to a thriving greek community. With the chartering of Gamma Rho Lambda in November, the university became the iirst college in the nation to have both a progressive women's sorority and a progressive men's fraternity, Delta Lambda Phi. It's something we're really proud of, Maria Snyder, sophomore in anthropology, said. To be in the middle of conservative Kansas, and somehow we made a welcome home for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered and progressive students. It gives us a place where we can support each other. GRL was a sorority for LGBT women, but they welcomed all women who were interested in joining. As a nontraditional student, I didn't think there would be a home for me in greek life, Snyder said. ul saw the sidewalk chalking for GRL, specifically for LGBT and progressive students, and I attended an interest group meeting and L Il O B v , Kan P v h I gy - SO M g I H G d C v, Kan B Ad H FR Z h y H Nl hattan B Ad I ' GR H It R U Pl ll ,Kan A tt p I gy' SO GI R d ........,........

The chapter colonized after the women showed they could maintain sustainability and completed the paperwork, Chelsey Fritch, conference chair and senior in humanities, said. It shows we are making an attempt to be progressive, we offer a variety of minorities and different qualities on campus, Fritch said. I think it's phenomenal especially being on such a conservative campus, it's amazing that it's in the Midwest, that our school can offer thatf, GRL helped bring the Out and Greek conference to the university Nov. 19-22. Fritch and Snyder went to the Out and Greek Conference in Chicago last year and lobbied to bring it to the university, Snyder said. We applied for fthe conferencej and competed with three different schools to get it here, Fritch said. We got it because we were the most organized and had the largest amount of budget cuts for the conference - we saved the conference and our school a lot of money. Students from California, Arizona, Oregon, Florida and Texas attended the conference. The conference educated students about how to create a more tolerant and conducive environment fo LGBT students in the greek system. Thi conference brought several prominent figureheads from the LBGT community including Shane Windmeyer, cofounder and executive director of Campus Pride, an organization that works with students to make college a Campus Pride Shane m speaks to Will Frankenberger of lVliIlen University, and Jefferson Em, Delta Lambda Phi.

The dance form is a beautiful blend of expressions, music and rhythm, Iyer said. l learned Bharatanatyam during my high school days and always wanted to perform and enioy this dance form in front of an audience. SABHA gave me that opportunity, and so after a break of almost 13 years, I revisited this dance form. I thoroughly enioyed it. I owe SABHA for making this wish of mine come true.
