Mini Marathon raises $6,721 Event focuses on getting high school students involved By Cameron Teague Robinson Editor-in-Chief
Ziggython may still be a few weeks away, but Sunday afternoon the Dance Marathon atmosphere was alive in the Union. Mini Marathon started at 11 a.m. and at noon the event was going full force. The music was f lowing throughout the second floor of the Union, kids were running up and down the inf latables, people were playing video games and even more people were dancing. The only break from the games came when the miracle families came up to the podium and told their stories. For Erin Cassin, who is the co-high school engagement chair, hearing those stories is what makes it all seem real. “If we didn’t have that it would be hard to wrap your mind around why you are there,” she said. “It would almost be ‘Why am I getting involved?’ Then when you hear what they have to say it just really puts things into perspective.” Renee Erskine, spoke on her daughter who was standing right next to her. Her daughter, Regan, is diagnosed with Carnitine deficiency, autoimmune deficiency and ulcerative colitis. All three have
Years College of Musical Arts celebrates centennial anniversary Saturday afternoon By William Channell Managing Editor
Walking through the halls of the College of Musical Arts Saturday afternoon, it was obvious something was being celebrated. The building was filled with music as it usually is, but this was different. A building of musical improvement and study was, for one afternoon, turned into a space of musical celebration as the CMA marked its centennial anniversary. A common thread throughout the events was the importance of the faculty to the longevity of the college. “The faculty, in turn, attract good students,” said Robert Thayer, who was dean of the college from 1983 to 1993. “The role of a good student is to challenge the faculty, so that the dynamic of the quality faculty and the talented and ambitious students is what makes for a good institution.” This ability for professors and instructors at the college to mold potential students is why men’s chorus member Dean Moore believes the CMA is still here. “Honestly, singing now and singing back when I was a freshman in college, it’s night and day,” Moore said. “That’s what each of the faculty members does for each of their students; they make you go that extra mile to be better.” Celebration throughout the day was laid back and easy. The doors to Bryan Recital Hall were open, the sound of a student and faculty jazz combo inviting people to come in and listen for a bit. In one area on the second floor, iPads were displayed where those passing by could make their own music. Videos of the Falcon Marching Band throughout its history were being shown in Kelly Hall. These events revealed a contrast between traditional and contemporary musical ideas. While within the past few decades, the college has become known as a hotspot for contemporary innovation, Moss said there’s a balance. “New music is a very important facet of what the college does and I think does very well,” he said. “There’s many prongs to all of this, and we also are very active and have a wonderful theory … history and composition programs.” The college’s origins go back to the establishment of the Department of Music in 1914. Ernest Hesser served as the department chair and the

GRIT sponsored by the Counseling Center helps prevent overwhelmed students By Natasha Ivery Reporter

A new program called GRIT sponsored by the Counseling Center can help prevent students from being overwhelmed with the amount of work they have. GRIT is defined as “persevering in face of adversity/struggle and being resilient,” said Anthony Rivera, clinical director and psychologist at the Counseling Center. The GRIT program is fairly new, with the very first GRIT week held last semester. Each GRIT week has a different theme and lasts for one week. “This semester our theme is the acronym GRIT,” said Rivera. “Monday was get roaring in ten, Tuesday was get real in ten, Wednesday was get resilient in ten, Thursday was get recharged in ten and Friday was get rolling in ten.” Each day of GRIT week had a different activity to target different areas of how “gritty” students are. “There was a new concept each day.” said Patricia Helyer, student assistant and advocacy specialist at

the Counseling Center. “We think it’s important for students to tap into their strength and perseverance but relaying that outside of athletics and more into literal strength.” GRIT week was designed after the Counseling Center staff found new research that said peoples’ knowledge level is irrelevant to success. “We read about a college in Michigan that is changing their admissions requirements about SAT’s and GPA because that doesn’t determine how smart a student is,” Helyer said. “After that, we found more research that said your level of knowledge doesn’t lead to success; it’s about how hard you work. You can achieve success through hard work and determination.” Monday’s GRIT week activity began with roaring, which had students write down a negative thought, shred it and replace it with a positive one. Tuesday was real, with students taking a survey about taking off the ‘masks’ they show to the world daily and being chal-

The College of Business hosted its annual Women In Leadership Conference on Friday in the Bowen-Thompson Student Union. This is the third year the University has held this conference. The theme for the all-day conference was, “Designing Your Career,” focusing on the idea of empowerment and knowing financial value/worth as a working woman. Pamela K. M. Beall [1984 University graduate], Director and President of MPLX, Senior Vice President, Corporate Planning, Government and Public Affairs of Marathon Petroleum Corporation; Maribeth S. Rahe [1970 University graduate], President and CEO of Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc.; and Jane Heppe [1974 University graduate], President of the Americas Burberry were speakers that gave addresses and breakout sessions to all students in attendance. Presenting the keynote speaker was the University’s Women in Business Leadership president Marlee Alt, who said the organization was founded off the Women in Leadership conference. Following Alt, Kirk Kern, a professor and director of the Dallas-Hamilton Center in the College of Business, spoke about the College of Business and the projects that the college puts on, most specifically The Hatch project. Following Kern, Sharon Speyer, regional President of Huntington National Bank, segued into the keynote speaker by talking to the
sole professor at the time. The college has come a long was since then, with 56 full-time faculty and 360 undergraduate students currently. “It’s been a great experience,” Thayer said. “It was a very good decision to have come here.” On one of a series of plaques on the wall detailing the history of the College of Musical Arts, the school is described as an “oasis” that “encompasses all traditional as well as contemporary studies in music education.” Moss said while at the local level the term “oasis” is accurate, the college has long been known nationally. “Since before I came 21 years ago, this musical college was already very established,” Moss said. “In the community, I can

Women in Leadership conference features alumna, ESPN editor women in the room directly. Speyer expressed her happiness with a university who has a female president. “This makes this conference worth it, to know that you have a woman in high leadership,” she said. Speyer then spoke to how impressed she was with the turnout of the conference. “I know it’s hard to take time away from your friends, family or studies,” she said. “But you’re investing in yourselves.” The keynote presenter for the conference was Amy DuBois Barnett, Executive Editor for ESPN. Barnett was the former editor-inchief one of the “oldest African American magazines and most successful,” according to Ebony.com. Her address was titled, “You Can Have the Career You’ve Always Dreamed Of,” in which she spoke to young women directly about having complete control over your own destiny. “I love the topic of women in leadership, about goals,” Barnett said. Barnett explained how she dedicated her life to empowering women and to follow the seven steps that helped her succeed: Embrace fear as growth, be true to yourself, realize your value and demand the best, put into the universe what you want back, have integrity, stay independent and to do something meaningful everyday. “I learned very early in life [to be determined] because it’s a mindset,” she said. “As women we are waiting for someone to save us, let us save ourselves.”
see how you might use that word.” The afternoon culminated in a performance showcasing several different ensembles the college has to offer, but a few hours before a chord was struck among members of the men’s chorus. The chorus had its “circle-up,” a meeting which happens before every performance and acts as a way to align “spirits and minds” among members of the ensemble. Individuals are allowed to say whatever might be on their minds leading up to a performance. Moore recounted coming to Music Discovery Day three years ago and falling in love with the college, and reflected the sentiment of many other who attended the celebration. “I came here looking for some kind of clarity,” he said. “Coming here, hearing the voices, listening to the faculty … it just seemed like a great place.”

GRIT From Page 1 lenged to be authentic. Wednesday was resilient, with a maze based on memory set up for students to complete and if they messed up, they had added difficulty with SWC pipes and weights to show their grit and ability to persevere. Thursday was recharge, having students spin a wheel and practice stress coping skills like yoga, deep breathing and meditation. Friday was rolling in honor of Falcon Fridays that had students write down how they would achieve personal goals. The ten in this semester’s GRIT week represents how long the students had to do the activity. “Most students don’t have an hour to exercise or deep breathe, so we designed activities that are quick, simple and effective for them to do,” Rivera said. While GRIT Week is sponsored by the Counseling Center, they purposely left the Counseling Center’s name/ logo off of their t-shirts and out of most promotion. “We did that because we wanted students to participate in Grit Week without being scared off by the Counseling Center,” Rivera said. “Students equate counseling with mental illness, which is partly what we specialize in but it’s the stigma, so we wanted to eliminate that.” GRIT Week has been well received by
students so far. “Students have been really open and receptive to doing the activities and having fun in the process,” Helyer said. “We ask them for permission to post their picture on Facebook and in return they can get a tshirt, popcorn and other prizes.” Although GRIT Week features simple activities designed to test grit and strength, if a students is struggling with mental illness or other obstacles, the Counseling Center is here to help. “We’ve had students do the activities and then privately tell us they need help, which is fine,” Rivera said. “We want to help erase stigma, and the [CC] deals with more than mental illness. We have a counselor interested in drug and alcohol addiction, one in social justice issues, one for LGBTQ+ and so on. We have people that can help with anxiety or feeling overwhelmed, everything.” Junior Rayia Gaddy said GRIT Week helped her with strength to face the rest of the semester. “The activities were fun and simple but they carried a deeper message and relieved some stress for me,” Gaddy said. “I enjoyed it.” The Counseling Center sees success and new GRIT Weeks in the semesters to come. “We got a lot of good feedback from the students, so this summer at our counselors’ retreat we’ll analyze it and re-tool anything if needed,” Helyer said. “It’s all about the students.”

VERITAS HOLDS the Soles 4 Souls 5k with over 200 runners from all over Bowling Green.
215 people participate in Soles 4 Soles inaugural 5k By Kelly Savela Reporter
This past Saturday the University hosted the inaugural Soles 4 Souls 5K at the Perry Field House. Soles 4 Souls is a non-profit organization that collects shoes for 49 states and 127 countries and provides them to those who need them. They also set up shoe stores in different locations to provide jobs for people as well. These shoes stores have relationships with retailers across the country that donate the shoes that their store doesn’t sell. This 5K was pieced together by Veritas, a Catholic Christian Life Group at BGSU. Over 215 participants came to Perry Field House on Saturday to donate gently used shoes and participate in the race. “I would like to see it here again, I think it’s a great organization and it brought in a lot of money and a lot of shoes,” said Veritas President Ashley Langhals. Aside from the 5K, participants also had the option to sign-up for the Barefoot Mile. This was separate from the 5K and participants walked an entire mile completely barefoot. The concept behind this mile is to stand in solitary with those who don’t have shoes and get a small taste of what it might be like on a daily basis for them.
“We’re just giving people an ideas of what it might be like to not have shoes,” said Race Director Jordan Giovannucci. With this being the first Soles 4 Souls 5K, a lot of planning had to occur to ensure that this event was a success. A large portion of the items at the event were donated by places such as The Cookie Jar and Dave’s Running, with other sponsors donating the majority of the prizes. “It was super organized and I really liked that there was an option to donate shoes because it was really great to give back,” said race participant Alissa Barwinski. The success of this event didn’t occur without a lot of planning. Two days before the race, the original route ended up having construction in the course and Veritas had to reroute the entire race. They also spent a large amount of time marketing the event to ensure that there would be a good turnout to participate. Each year a Soles 4 Soul 5K is hosted in Defiance, Ohio. This was the first time this event occurred at BGSU, but there are hopes for its continuation in years to come. “I would love to see many more people — I would love to see everything a little bit bigger and a little more organized,” Giovannucci said.

Despite not serving in USG this year, the two did show a good understanding of the structure of the organization. Their vision for a student government that truly reflects and represents the student body is admirable, and with a year of experience in USG, we believe they could have been strong contenders. Candidates Victor Senn and Danielle Parker demonstrated the strengths of a long history with USG and a complete understanding of its inner workings, especially Parker, who has served in USG since her freshman year. She is also currently chief of staff for USG President Brian Kocheiser. The many leadership positions the two have held on campus have given them established connections with faculty and administrators, which would aid in
immediate responses from the University. We believe Senn and Parker would have no trouble leading USG into action; however, our concern was that their connection to USG’s current leadership may prevent them from seeking to make any significant changes in the organization’s structure. Trenten Grohe and Kaylee Meade presented a strong plan of action, outlining ways to combat issues with a lack of student involvement in USG and a need to steer the organization on a more proactive path. They were adamant that they would get senators more connected to their constituents. Their course of action was detailed and sincerely sought input from the University’s many student organizations. However in
our opinion, the two do not have as well-established a relationship with the administration as Senn and Parker, and their plans to connect with student organizations were ambitious enough that they may be overextending themselves. Consider ing t hese strengths and weaknesses, it is the opinion of the editorial board that we could not endorse one ticket over the other in regards to Senn/Parker and Grohe/ Meade. Both had similar views on many of the issues facing students, and the only differences were in the strength of connections, clear strategy for increasing student involvement and in opinion of the productiveness of USG. We believe a win by either ticket will place USG in competent, capable hands.
Practice healthy habits, routines that help you be your best This past week, I had my first experience with anxiety. Or, more accurately, it was the first time that I recognized it for what it was. I have been in college for five years [yikes] and this year, with its focus on teacher licensure tests as part of the prerequisite for methods and student teaching, has been the hardest. Both semesters have proved a challenge and while I like to keep in mind that maybe it’s designed this way in order to weed out the ones who do not really, truly have the passion and drive necessary to become teachers, this week I began to wonder if it was my motivation that

was being tested and not my mental and emotional fitness. I will explain: I have one class in particular that frustrates me and pushes me like no other. Lately, it has gotten to the point that whenever I sit down to do work for it [or even think about it for very long], I get this weird feeling, a mixture of nervousness and worry that makes me feel physically sick. I
feel short of breath and my heart starts beating faster. What on earth is up with that? Very confused, I talked to a friend, who told me a touch sardonically, “That’s what we call anxiety.” Oh. Wow, thank goodness I only experience this with the one class. Now that I put a name to it, it was time to find a way to vanquish it. I like to rely on the popular slogan, “Too blessed to be stressed.” It is cliché, but it makes sense. After all, here I am at college [yes, still] learning how to best do the job I am more sure every day that I am meant to do. I have found a church that is a splendid fit for me and I
have many friends for whom I am extremely grateful. This is the time of my life — and very fleeting — because while it seems that I will never graduate, I know that my days here are numbered. So what good will it do to waste a minute of this time on bad feelings? None, but that does not mean I’m immune. It’s great to have an ideal to live by, but you’d better have practical ways to carry it out. And to that end, I have compiled a list of things to do to beat anxiety that work for me and might for you, as well. Take deep breaths. Get

After meeting with the presidential candidates for Undergraduate Student Government, The BG News editorial board has decided not to endorse any candidate, as a unanimous consensus could not be reached between the Grohe/Meade ticket and the Senn/Parker ticket. Though the editorial board felt that Nadia Alzamami and Ashley Robinson had plans that would take USG in a more inclusive direction, we agreed that they lacked the experience with the organization and University administration to be able to put these plans into effect. Their plans to build relationships with the Bowling Green city community, organizations on campus and capital planning would simply stretch USG in too many directions.

Bowling Green softball team wins two games, sweeps rival Toledo in home opener By Aaron Parker Assistant Sports Editor
The Bowling Green softball team showed an improved offense on Sunday, sweeping conference rival Toledo in a double header. The Falcons continued with their trend of getting off to a quick start in the first game, scoring two runs in the first inning. Sophomore Aspen Searle singled to left field on her first at bat followed by a Marina Cobbs triple. With Haley Schrock at bat and Searle and Cobbs on first and second, the Falcons scored their two first inning runs off of an error. They then kept Toledo scoreless before the second inning. Keeping the trend going, the Falcons ran the score up with three runs in the second inning. After Kayla Koch and Emily McClelland hit their way to second and third, Searle added three RBIs with a three-run homerun over the left field fence to increase the Falcons’ score to five. The team put up another two runs before the Rockets showed any scoring offense. Three runs came into seventh inning for the Rockets, the first off of a solo home run by Chandler Rice. Samantha Showalter then got herself on base after a passed ball. Kaitlyn Bergman added two RBIs to her

Falcons drop two of three in conference series
Zac Carey pitches gem in final game of series, gets win By Brandon Shrider Sports Editor
NICK GLANZMAN strides forward as he watches the incoming pitch in a home game at Steller Field earlier this season.
ERIC BURGASSER | THE BG NEWS
Zac Carey salvages another poor Mid-American Conference series for the Bowling Green baseball team. The true freshman threw his best game thus far, giving the Falcons 7.1 innings of one-run ball and notching his first collegiate victory, 8-2. Carey was able to keep the Northern Illinois hitters off balance all day, getting 11 to flyout while inducing another eight groundouts. He walked just one batter. “We obviously needed somebody to step up for us and Zac Carey gave us a great performance on the mound today,” head coach Danny Schmitz said. Carey got plenty of run support as well. BG had struggled to score over its last seven games — all losses. Trey Keegan helped lead the way, going 3-4 with a solo-homerun,
including an RBI single in the first to get the Falcons on the board. Keegan had help at the plate, too. Kory Brown and Derek Drewes each had mutli-hit days as well, combining for 5 RBIs and two runs. Drewes smacked the biggest hit of the day for BG. In the top of the fifth inning, Drewes collected his first career hit — a two-out, go-ahead RBI single — bringing Brown around to score, breaking the 1-1 tie. “We’ve struggled lately offensively, so it was nice to see the guys swing the bats well and get some big hits,” Schmitz said. “Derek Drewes’ first career hit was a big go-ahead RBI for us and really sparked us.” This sparked a five-run sixth inning for the Falcons led by Brown and Drewes, each collecting a twoRBI single. This put the Huskies away as BG

Hilary Clinton, not a true champion of women’s rights “My name is Hilary Clinton and I speak for women.” It’s not a secret that Clinton is looking to win a race based on a growing platform that she is the champion of feminism; a real stick-it-to-em kind of gal. Yawn … next please! I’m not saying that a woman should forgo a bid in a presidential party, because she would break the walls only held by hinges after a black president won the election two times in a row, but I would like to put my money on a candidate who isn’t quite so hypocritical. I don’t think Hilary Clinton is a feminist, because feminism is not a swaying opinion based on what is presented to the table. To prove my point, let’s go back to the humble Clinton beginnings, shall we? In the 1990s, many women came forward to

accuse the Clinton family of sexually assaulting/harassing them in some way. State trooper Paula Jones accused then-governor Bill Clinton of asking her for sexual favors. Juanita Broaddrick accused Bill of raping her and then, after some Hilary-bullying, took it back. Gennifer Flowers was publicly accused of being a slut by Hilary after standing up for the women who came forward to speak against Bill. Kathleen Willey came forward and said Bill raped her during their days at Columbia, then after a lot of Hilary-bullying, took it back. And let’s not forget Monica Lewinsky, who was

particular skill that leads to a particular job. Common sense holds that liberal arts waste students’ time and tuition dollars. But in January 2014, the National Center for Higher Education Management Systems and the Association of American Colleges and Universities released a study that shows that in their peak earning years [age 56-60], people who had undergraduate majors in the humanities and social sciences earn an average of about $2000 more per year than people with undergraduate majors in professional or pre-professional fields. Why is this so? The liberal

accused of being a “stalker” and “obsessed” by Hilary after her alleged affair with Bill. The common theme lies in the standard patriarchal set up. We saw it with the Ray Rice case, we see it with women who are defending their pimps due to emotional brainwashing: men simply cannot control their urges. I will stand by my “man” because he is simply that, a man. In almost every instance, Hilary was right there supporting her man, who happened to be the president of the free world, twisting each woman’s story and making them out to be sexcrazed maniacs. Clinton now has articles running with the titles, “Hilary is talking about women. Learn why this is important.” She has exhibited quite a lot of slut-shaming and victim-blaming during her time leading up to being
first lady. My question is: Can we have a Clinton in office who is able to give excuses for this behavior and remain the pioneer on a frontier for women’s rights? I’m not too sure. It seems that the media is being extremely forgiving of Clinton when it comes to women’s rights, while getting their panties in a bunch over the private email fiasco. Well played, media. Despite all the incorrect media attention Clinton is getting, I’m [sort of] excited for Clinton to look for a Democratic bid. It will be interesting to see another Clinton-Bush power struggle. However, I have my own understanding of Clinton’s changing agenda for women and, as a liberal and a feminist, I’m not going to be there for it.
arts train us to find and evaluate information, to communicate in spoken and written words and to think: broadly applicable skills. Liberal arts educate the imagination. Common sense is poor in imagination. It states how things are and how they ought to be. But imagination explores how things could be. Imagination requires hypothesizing, empirical study and more hypothesizing. It requires time and patience and tolerance of ambiguity [the topic of my column of 03/02/2015]. “Common sense” has its own agenda: it tries to convince us that there is one true, disinterested way of looking at things. To get back to German
literature and the limits of common sense: in Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis,” Gregor Samsa, a man with a good job, wakes up to find he’s been changed into some kind of insect. In “The Trial” [also written by Kafka], Joseph K. is arrested one morning, but he does not know why. Gregor and K. are amazed that the world turns out to be so strange, so nonsensical. They know how things ought to be and so they try to fight their predicaments with common sense. Where does it get them? Spoiler alert: nowhere or worse.

Outdoor team secures 10 different top 10 finishes
Falcons perform well, multiple personal records set By Aaron Parker Assistant Sports Editor

Bowling Green tennis team loses third MAC game Falcons drop match 6-1 to Akron, Megan Miller records lone point with second MAC win By Kaleb Page Reporter
The Akron Zips hosted the Bowling Green women’s tennis team on Friday night and handed the Falcons their third Mid-American Conference loss, 6-1. Megan Miller recorded the lone point on the night in her top flight singles matchup with Akron’s Martina Zerbola. Miller’s victory gives her a 2-1 MAC singles play record and increases her lead in both singles wins [eight] and overall victories [15], all of this coming in her first season as a Falcon. Miller and Zerbola split two sets with each player getting a 6-3 score. In the tiebreaking set Miller came out with the close 11-9 win. For the rest of the team the effort was there but the end result turned the way
of the Zips. “The girls played great today,” said head coach Olga Elkin. “That was some of the best tennis I have seen some of them play. Attitude and effort was great right from the start.” The Zips took the doubles point as doubles matches began the day. The first flight doubles match between the Falcon duo of Harley Hutchinson and Miller and Akron’s duo of Zerbola and Sophia Geier ended 6-4 in favor of Akron. The second flight match involving the duo of Brittany Plaszewski and Emily Witt, and Akron duo of Madison Cohen and Karolina Maksimova was halted at 4-4 after the Zips clinched the doubles point in the third flight doubles match. The third flight ended before the second
flight as the Akron duo of Ariadna Blinova and Olga Shkundina took down the Falcon duo of Antonina Farrar and Sydney Seeley, 6-0. Singles matches, aside from Miller’s, went the way of the Zips. Shkundina defeated Hutchinson 6-4, 6-4, Blinova defeated Witt 6-2, 6-2, Geier defeated Plaszewski 7-5, 6-3, Shannon Newnes defeated Farrar 6-1, 6-0, and Cohen defeated Seeley 6-0, 6-0. It was a quick turnaround as the team’s next opponent was the University of Buffalo on Sunday. The Bulls took the event with the final score line of 7-0. In doubles action the Bulls took the point to start the event with the duo of Tanja Stojanovska and Christine Haraldson taking down Farrar and

stretched its lead to 7-1. The win snapped a 10-game losing streak for the Falcons. BG still lost the MAC series, losing the first two games of the series to NIU. On Friday, the Huskies picked on Andrew Lacinak early and jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning after the — what should have been an inning-ending groundout — was not converted. BG answered in the fourth with two runs of its own, but NIU answered right back with nine runs in the bottom of the inning off of Lacinak and Devin Daugherty en route to a 12-3 win over the Falcons. The Falcons scored another run late, but two errors and and just four players collecting a hit, did them in. The second game of the series, the first of the Saturday doubleheader featured a near-similar result with Jason Link on the mound. BG managed to score first with two runs in the third on a two-RBI double from Brandon Howard. But, the Falcons were held scoreless over the final six frames. From inning four to seven, the Huskies scored all 11 of their runs, including five in the fifth and four in the sixth, to put the Falcons away again. BG is now 6-16 overall, 1-5 in the MAC after losing the series dropping two of three to NIU.
stat sheet after she sent a homer into right field and scored two more for the Rockets. That would be the last run scored in the game for Toledo, leading to a 7-3 win for the Falcons. Senior Jamie Kertes struck out a seasonhigh seven batters in the game. Sophomore Briana Combs closed out the
rest of the game, striking out five. The next game was a shutout for the Falcons, scoring another four runs en route to a 4-0 win. Three Falcons got an RBI in the game, Chloe Giordano and Molly Holliday each with one and Trista Mokienko with two. The team added another consecutive game with runs scored in the first inning, with two. The first came off of
Seeley 6-1, and the duo of Laura Holterbosch and Doris Aleksovska downing the Falcon duo of Witt and Plaszewski 7-5. In singles action Miller could not find a way to finish off Stojanovska as the flight went to Buffalo 7-5, 6-2. That flight was followed by the singles match between Hutchinson and Margarita Kotok also ending with a Buffalo victory 6-2, 6-0. Similar stories came for the rest of the Falcons in singles action as Witt was downed 6-2, 6-4 by Dayana Agasieva, Plaszewski by Holterbosch 6-4, 6-1, Farrar by Haraldson 6-0, 6-0, and Seeley by Aleksovska 6-1, 6-0. The Falcons will have home action next weekend taking on MAC rival Toledo at Keefe Courts with start time set for 1 p.m.
a Holliday RBI sending Searle across home plate. The second was off of a Giordano double to left field, knocking in Holliday. The only other runs came in the fourth inning. With Cobbs and Holliday on first and second, Mokienko doubled to left field and sent both base runners to home plate to end the game. The Falcons will be in action again at Detroit on Tuesday.
The Bowling Green track and field team had a strong showing in the opening of their outdoor season, ending their meet with 10 top 10 finishes in one of the nation’s largest meets. On the first day, distance runners Becca Rae and Mackenzie McMillin both set personal records in their respective events. In the 5,000, Rae improved her time by more than 36 seconds by running the event in 17 minutes 7.60 seconds. She missed the Mid-American Conference automatic qualifying mark by just 0.21 seconds. Rae is now one of only eight people in the programs history to hit that time and is the 10th fastest in BGSU history. McMillin set her personal best in the 10,000, running a time of 36 minutes 14.29 seconds. Her last fastest time was at last year’s MAC championships, which was more than 100 seconds slower than at this meet. In first day sprints, senior Brittany Sinclair finished ninth in the 400 with a time of 56.21 seconds. That time was less than half a second away from the MAC automatic qualifying mark. Alicia Arnold finished seventh in the 100 with a time of 12.24 seconds. In the shot put, former NCAA regional qualifier Makenzie Wheat finished second with a throw of 46
feet 11.75 inches. Redshirt sophomore Kori Reiser also had a big performance in the throws section, competing in the discus. She finished seventh in the invitational portion with a throw of 147 feet 1 inch. The team continued to be successful on the second day of the meet, adding four more top 10 finishes. Sinclair competed in the 400 hurdles in a field of 60 competitors. Running a new personal best, Sinclair finished with a time of 61.13 seconds. That time finished her at second place overall and first among the MAC runners. The time gave Sinclair a MAC automatic qualifying mark and made her the 10th fastest in BGSU history. The Falcon 800 relay team posted a time of 1 minute 41.15 seconds to place fourth overall in the meet. In the hammer throw, redshirt sophomore Kayla Velasquez threw a distance of 162 feet 6 inches to finish eighth in her event. “We had good things happen across all of our event groups this weekend,” head coach Lou Snelling said. “Conditions were challenging at points, but that can be a big part of outdoors so it was a good experience to have early in the season.” The team will be back in action in a dual meet against conference rival Toledo on Friday.

As the Union Ballroom filled with college volunteers, and miracle children, Mini Marathon was a focus on the high school students. This year Norwalk High School hosted their own Mini Marathon and Lima Senior High School will host one later this year.

That is where the future of Dance Marathon’s Mini Marathon looks to be going also, as chair Sarah Sanchez announced that this could potentially be the University’s last time hosting Mini Marathon. Mini Marathon’s unoffical total amount raised was $6,721.02. That amount does not include how much was raised at Norwalk or what will be raised at Lima Senior. While the amount of money raised is important, it wasn’t a focus for the group this year. “We were deadset on ‘let’s make the total bigger and better than last year, but then we got passed that,” Cassin said. “We realized that money is now what is importance. It’s why we are raising it that is important.”

hirley Chisholm began her professional career as a teacher. She served as director of the Hamilton-Madison Child Care Center until the late 1950s, then as an educational consultant for New York City’s Bureau of Child Welfare. In 1968, Chisolm became the first African-American to earn election to Congress, where she worked on the Education and Labor Committee and helped form the Black Caucus. After initially being assigned to the House Forestry Committee, she shocked many by demanding “At present, our reassignment. In 1972, she made history again by becoming the first black woman of a major party to run for a presidential nomination. After serving seven terms in the House, Chisholm retired from office to become a teacher and public speaker.
A champion of minority education and employment opportunities throughout her tenure in Congress, Chisholm was also a vocal opponent of the draft. After leaving Congress in 1983, she taught at Mount Holyoke College and was popular on the lecture circuit. She is the author of two books, Unbought and Unbossed (1970) and The Good Fight (1973).
