BRIEF
ODOT finalizes plans for bridge reconstruction In the coming years, Waterville, Ohio will see the rebuilding of its bridge crossing the Maumee River. The reconstruction is being done by the Ohio Department of Transportation and is currently working on finalizing design plans, Theresa Polloick, public information officer for ODOT, said. The bridge was originally built in 1904, and is in need of repairs, Wood County Engineer Raymond Huber said. “[It’s] old, tired and in poor condition,” he said. Reconstruction of the bridge is “awhile away” and should be ready by 2017, and will take 30 to 45 days to complete, Polloick said.
Garage sale benefits Humane Society Sale helps to raise money for the organization

Residents and visitors of the community and surrounding areas alike can now visit Snook’s Dream Cars Automobile Museum to view older-styled cars. At Snook’s, visitors have the opportunity to walk around and see over 30 different old-fashioned cars from 1920 Ford Model-Ts to old time Ford Mustangs. In addition, the entire museum is decorated with displays of multiple 1940s items such as old slot machines, arcade games and Texaco memorabilia. Jeff Snook, owner of the museum, said he has been collecting lots of old car parts with his father for many years, hence one of the reasons for deciding to open up the business.
The Wood County Humane Society held its 22nd annual garage sale this past weekend, an event that allows bargain shoppers and around 60 volunteers to help hundreds of homeless and abused animals. The sale was held under the grandstands of the Wood County Fairgrounds, starting at 9 a.m. Thursday and ending at 12 p.m. Saturday. Shoppers gathered from all over the area to sort through hundreds of knickknacks, house-hold items, clothing, furniture and even kittens. Because of the vast number of donations, Wood Country residents and co-coordinators of the event, Joe Schroeder and Stephanie Ringler, said there is a lot of work and sleepless nights that go into putting on the sale, something they have been doing for the past eight years. “We put in about 130 hours apiece,” Schroeder said. “By the time you add in all the volunteers, there’s got to be at least 5,000 hours of volunteer labor that goes into this.” Ringler agreed, saying, “The last two years we just camped out here. We stop our whole

Church attendance dwindles, keeps going through summer
AND THEY’RE OFF
Services continue even money for the organization By Seth Weber Web Editor
While religious organizations such as H2O and CRU serve many students during the school year, their congregation dwindles during the summer months. Because of this, both the location and atmosphere of services change during the summer. While H2O’s services stay the same, they host less people than during the school year, Bryan Wiles, a pastor at H2O, said.
“For us, it doesn’t change what we do, but it does slow things dow n,” he said. With this shortage of students, Wiles said the congregation draws from more than just the University. People in the community come to the church, such as young families who attended the University. “Pre-students” come during their orientation at the University as well, Wiles said. The congregation often consists of

Students use preparation strategies to seek and gain employment By Brittany Bauer Reporter
Many new opportunities lie ahead for both recent graduates of the University who are now striving to pursue the career of their dreams and for returning students who will be staying in Bowling Green over the summer. Over 2,200 students g raduated ea rl ier this month, according to Career Center A ssista nt Director Keisha Taylor. Ma ny g raduates gained job-seek ing ex per ienc e f rom events such as the teacher job fair held at Perry Field House in April. Over 104 school districts from states such as Alaska, Florida, Arizona and Texas were present
at the fair. However, most of the employers were still from districts in Ohio. The fair generated over 1,700 interviews according to Taylor. Even though it has been perceived by many that college graduates tend to be target victims of unemploy ment and u nderemploy ment, Taylor also said that students can follow severa l i mpor ta nt guidelines to stand out to employers and not fall into this possible trap. “They have done their homework on employers,” Taylor said. “They’re polished on their oneminute commercial.” Taylor sa id coops and internships help students gain more experience and
become more marketable when its time to get a job. On the other end of the spectrum, many returning students are seeking summer jobs. Over 350 students attended the summer job fair in March. Accord i ng to Student Employment D i r e c t or Daw n Chong, there was a decrease in attendance at the summer job fair this year, but there were still positive results. “The students that came this year were more prepa re d,” Chong said. In order to make students even more prepared and likely to attend the summer job fair, it will take place next year after spring break on
March 26 instead of being right before spring break, as in previous years. Chong sa id students tend to be more focused on spring break instead of the fair when it is right before spring break. Some notewort hy employers at the fair included Fedex, Putin-Bay, Girl Scouts a nd ma ny dif ferent camps, some of which are located in New York and Massachusetts. W hether students are graduating or returning to f inish the remainder of classes for their degree, experience and effort to show that experience will impress employers and make them more likely to hire prospective workers.

Cheap way to travel nationwide Game offers a good way explore the country
By Amanda Matthews Pulse Editor
the highest point destination tickets, seeking to have the longest continuous line of trains, since extra points are awarded to this player. Another highlight of this game is that it’s designed to be played with two to five players. Some of the tracks have double routes. The number of people playing the game decides whether or not you may use the double paths. I feel that the game is just as fun with two players as it is with four or five. This adds flexibility to make it never feel off-balance when playing with more or less individuals. The game also has spinoff boards featuring Europe, Märklin or Nordic countries, if you ever get tired of traveling around the U.S. Additionally, expansion packs can be purchased including special cards and new components such as dice. A Halloween theme set is also available. My personal favorites are Alvin the alien and Dexter the dinosaur, who put a really unique spin on the game. I’ve enjoyed playing board games since I was very young and I am always looking for new and unique games. This one really stands out among the current games available, and I would highly recommend it to any game fanatic to add to their collection. I know I’m not alone in feeling this way, as my friends are also hooked on this game. Plus, if you want to bring the fun anywhere you go, an iPad, iPhone, iPod and Android app are all now available, as well as a computer edition of the game. You are able to challenge your friends or get randomly matched with people from around the world. Think how fun it will be to tell everyone you were able to travel across the U.S. in less than one day. So jump onboard—your ticket awaits.
Want to take a trip cross-country, but don’t have the money? The board game “Ticket To Ride” allows you to travel the world in the comfort of your own home. In this game, each player is given 45 trains to start off with and everyone draws three destination tickets. Each player must keep at least two of these cards. The game’s board looks like a big map of the U.S. with big cities being listed. For example, Seattle to New York or Kansas City to Houston are just some of the map routes that you could draw with your destination tickets. Each ticket is given a different point value depending on how far away the two cities are from one another. The important thing is to keep your destination tickets a secret from your opponents. Multiple tracks cover the board and you have to use your trains to secure your routes. Colored train cards are collected throughout the game and this is how you capture the tracks across the board. The game box brags that the game “takes less than one minute to learn but a lifetime to master.” The game is really easy to set up and is fairly quick to teach. I’ve taught several different people to play; they pick up the concept of the game pretty quickly and, after playing a whole game through, they are anxious to play a second round. The game has a good balance between luck and strategy — that is the part of the game that I really find to be interesting. It can be compared to a chess game: you have to try and predict your opponents’ next move and be thinking two steps ahead of them. Many people like to block their competitors’ routes, while other players like to get
Bowling Green Hotspots Series By Blake Howell Reporter It hasn’t even been a year since Blo made its debut in Bowling Green, but in that time, there have been few other businesses in the area that can help someone relax as well as Blo does. Located at 300 E. Wooster, Blo is a new hookah bar that offers great food, great hookah and great drink specials. Admittedly, I have been to Blo only a handful of times. That said, every time I have had the pleasure of stepping through the doors, I have thoroughly enjoyed myself. When one walks in, they
BG FACTS Blo are promptly greeted and seated by a server. Believe me when I say that a bad seat does not exist inside of Blo. The building is packed tight with comfy couches and lounging chairs, making ample room for people to enjoy the company of their closest friends, as well as other great people just trying to relax. Flat screens cover both sides of the walls and each TV has its own remote which allows for each group to make their experience as personal to their own needs as possible. The bar also serves several craft beers, numerous liquors and even food. However, aside from the
great drinks, food and the top-notch hookah, the atmosphere of Blo is simply to die for. As I sat in the bar with my head tilted back and swaying to the greatest sounds of the ‘90s, I peered through the endless haze and blue overhead lighting to see the tranquil smiles and laughter of my fellow peers. Whether during the summer when there’s nothing to do, or when classes are in session and I just need to relax, Blo is the only place to go where people can simultaneously expel ice-cold smoke and all their problems, becoming weightless in a venue of smoky stillness.

Social networkings cross the line of privacy TAYLOR FREYER FORUM EDITOR
While it’s already hard enough to dodge the uncomfortable question about why you’re still single, apparently Facebook wants to make it much harder to avoid the dreading question. Facebook has reached a whole new level of pr ying into people’s personal lives following its new feature of the “ask” button, which allows users, with one click, to question someone’s relationship status.
“An estimated 13 million U.S. Facebook users are oversharing personal information with other users, according to a 2012 Consumer Report.” The “ask” button also allows users to ask other users questions that range from your favorite television shows to the location of your hometown.
Users who decided to not include their relationship status in their profile will be presented with the “ask” button, giving friends an opportunity to send a message. Sure, let’s remind those who are single that yes, you are still single. Although it’s still your choice whether you decide to actually share whether you’re single or in a relationship to meddling users, this new feature reinforces the idea that social networking sites ask for too much information. Of course, I agree that social networking sites are great for staying connected with others,
Déjà vu all over again PHIL SCHURRER FACULTY COLUMNIST
Lately, certain colleges and universities, succumbing under pressure from student and faculty activists, have rescinded invitations to commencement speakers deemed too controversial. Even some liberals are beginning to recognize and lament the intolerant, arrogant mentality that pervades some “elite” institutions of higher learning. But it’s no surprise: we’ve been headed in this direction for decades. Quite simply, this is a dumbed-down version of McCarthyism, turned on its head. The labels have changed; “racist,” “bigot” or “sexist” has supplanted “communist” as the besmirching label of choice, but the intolerance lives on. Si x t y yea rs ago, there was suspicion in some quarters that Communism was overta k i ng t he nat ion through infiltration of the media, the churches and other aspects of American life.
“Sixty years ago, there was suspicion in some quarters that Communism was overtaking the nation through infiltration of the media, the churches and other aspects of American life.” This led to baseless accusations without corroborating ev idence, resulting in the stifling of debate and criticism. Today, with the hyperdeveloped sensitivity in some quarters and the growth of the victim industry, we seem to be travelling down the same road. However, this is being led by the left, rather than the right. The survival of the nation is not at stake as much as the preservation of the status of some protected groups and their immunity from scrutiny.
Why do the American people, usually endowed with a great deal of common sense and perception, allow this to happen? For one thing, it’s considered bad form to criticize certain groups. But, for our democracy to f lourish, a robust sense of debate must also f lourish. We need to remember that ideas are fair game for analysis, criticism and even satire. People, however, should be treated with respect and dignity, regardless of their beliefs and values. College students should also remember that, although cosseted in a warm, friendly academic bubble for a few years, they will eventually exit the academic dome and find themselves in what’s known as “The Real World.” In the “real world,” they will find that not everyone thinks as they do, nor values much of what they may hold dear. This comes with living in a democracy. It can be chaotic and offensive as well as stimulating.

Now, let’s make it clear: I do not have a personal vendetta with Facebook or any social networking sites for that matter, but I do believe it’s time they stop urging users to freely give up personal information. Privacy is important; it allows you to restrict others from accessing your most personal information.
Ultimately, it should be your decision of what parts of yourself you would like to share with others. It’s important to stop and think who will be seeing what you are sharing. You should not be encouraged or questioned on what you choose to keep private or make public. If I choose not to provide where I’m living, who I’m dating, where I’m going to school, etc., I shouldn’t be nagged by nosy users through the “ask” button.

Apartment living slaughters competition HANNAH BENSON REPORTER
Weird, surreal, freeing, challenging, totally awesome and scary — finding the words to describe moving into my first apartment is proving to be quite difficult. It’s so hard to describe because I’ve already lived away from my parents for two years in the dorms. But, something about “apartment life” lends itself to the falsity that I am now an adult. While it seems on the outside that I have an average young adult life, I still feel like a child who is not prepared for the “real world,” if there is such a thing. Apa r t ment liv ing requires a new level of independence than living in the dorms. For example, now I must plan my meals, instead of only having to think about them the class period before I eat them. To any other young adult, especially one who is used to adapting to a college schedule,
this would seem like no big deal. Planning is easy right? Nope. Not for me. This task is near impossible for someone who has spent the last two years of her life proving the theory of “bencial procrastination.” So, things like buying groceries for the week or figuring out how to hang a frame on the wall or how to get cable are all added to the list of tasks I now have to do, even though I am totally clueless on how. I’ve also been learning how to adapt to my surroundings. A new room comes with a new window, which in turn comes with new noises… and smells. Let me explain. Before moving into my apartment, I lived in Founders Hall, which is very close to the railroad track. I thought there was nothing more annoying than the sound of the train at 11 at night. I was wrong. My new window overlooks the apartment complex’s volleyball court, which I will one day use to fulfill the
hole in my heart left from being cut from my seventh grade volleyball team. Anyway, I can very easily hear people enjoying themselves when I am innocently trying to avoid productivity while napping. While I will admit this can be overlooked, it is what’s just beyond the volleyball court that disturbs me most: the pigs. Yes, my room overlooks the slaughterhouse. On a beautiful summer day, I can open my window to enjoy the smell and sound of pigs being slaughtered. It really is just splendid. All kidding aside, (even though I am totally not kidding about any of that) this experience is already so rewarding and it has only been a little over a week. Looking past a couple pig squeals, I have an entire summer to further explore my independence with my best friends in a town I love and I am looking forward to every second of it.

Off to a running start
Athletes compete during summer season
By Aaron Parker Sports Editor
It is now summertime, which means most students will be getting a much-needed rest over the next few months. The same applies to the most of the athletes of the University’s sports teams, but there is still much to reflect on from the end of the last term as well as athletes to continue to support this summer. The Bowling Green softball and baseball team both played long seasons, with both teams garnering individual player awards. The softball team just barely missed the summer post-season with a record of 23-28-1. Senior Captain Katie
Yoho finished her last season with the orange and brown with All-MAC first team honors for the first time in her career. Yoho placed top ten in seven different offensive categories this past season and finished second all-time in home runs for Bowling Green with 32 career runs. There were also a pair of newcomers to earn honors on the year with Chelsea Raker being named to AllMAC second team and All-MAC freshman team and Aspen Searle being named an All-MAC freshman. The baseball team finished the season with a 25-27 record, earned player awards, and was able to make it into the post-
season this summer. Catcher T.J. Losby and short stop Brian Bien were both named to the All-MAC first team. Losby was also named the Defensive Player of the Year, throwing out 11 out of 24 attempted base stealers along with a team high 312 putouts and just four errors on the season. He also had a .988 fielding percentage and leads in career putouts with 1,068. Both players helped the team to the post season, where they played two games last week. The first was a loss to Kent State University 2-6. The loss put the Falcons in the consolation bracket where they dropped a hard fought game to Western
Michigan University 4-7, putting their productive season to an end. The BG women’s Track and Field team will be the most active this summer with five athletes qualifying for the regional preliminary round. The qualifiers are Brooke Pleger, Tina Perrine, Kori Reiser, Jeanette Pettigrew and Makenzie Wheat. Bowling Green will be one of only two teams to have more than three athletes represented at the meet and Pleger is a heavy favorite to move on to the national meet. This regional round invites the top 48 competitors in each event to compete, a nd the top 12 in those
events go on to the NCA A National Championship meet to compete in a field of 24 athletes for the status of All-American and possibly the national champion. The round begins Thursday, May 29 and will go through Saturday, May 31 in Jacksonville, Fla., and the championship meet will be held June 11-14 in Eugene, Ore. After the national track meets, the summer sports for the
University will end with a series of soccer scrimmages in August. The women will play two against the University of Illinois at Chicago and Wright State, while the men’s team will play one against the Dixie Soccer Club. All three games will be played in Bowling Green. The time of all three scrimmages is to be announced.
Basketball season still offers excitement San Antonio drops game 3 to Oklahoma City
By Angela Hill Reporter
VS
Most sports fans have moved on to baseball season, since the basketball season usually ends by March with March Madness and everyone’s bracket was at some point broken. But basketball is still happening, and it will continue until the middle of next month. For those that have been following the San Antonio Spurs, the fans definitely got a show and a game to talk about. Game three of the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder was a close 97-106 loss this past Sunday. The Spurs are currently leading the Thunder in the series 2-1. The biggest highlight for the Thunder team was the return of their star player Serge Ibaka. Ibaka was rumored to be out of the playoffs for its’ entirety due to his recurring calf strain injury that he suffered during the last series against the Clippers. He surprised a lot of fans when he came back and played minutes in all four quarters of play. The Thunder benefited greatly from the return of Ibaka in the game, adding solid defense inside as well as a finishing option for the pick and roll. Coach Scott Brooks took him out in the fourth with about three minutes left in the game, finishing with 15 points, seven rebounds, and four blocks. The turning point for the Thunder was the fourth quarter. The Thunder went on a 12-

CHURCHES From Page 1 older students during the summer as well, Wiles said. Freshmen and sophomores usually don’t stay around during the summer, he said, so much of the summer congregation is made up of juniors and seniors. Senior Dani Smith likes the fact that there are less people because it allows her to get closer to people at church. “There’s less people, obviously, but you’re more closely connected to people,” she said. While many students leave during the summer, Wiles said the staff at H2O serves throughout the year. “Thankfully for us, we have staff that are here year round,” he said. During the summer, H2O is not able to use the Union ballroom for its services, so it must look to places off campus. This year, it’s using LifePoint Communit y Church. Wiles said it’s a small-
er, but more intimate space than the ballroom. He also likes the permanence of the church. W hen H2O does services in the ballroom, they have to put up and tear dow n the things they use. Wiles said they don’t have to worr y about that with the church at LifePoint. Smith said she thinks the church is better for the summer because the ballroom would be too big for the amount of people who attend in the summer. H2O intern Julia Manolukas said H2O has contributed to the church by making it a backdrop for the stage. Manolukas said she likes the church as well. “I really like it. It’s fun to go from the ballroom to the church,” she said. “[The church] blessed us by letting us use it.” While H2O staff member Shawn Salada likes the church, he thinks the Union is the best place for H2O. “Just as a church we’ll always prefer the Union because we exist to serve students,” he said.

lives and devote them to this.” Stress and a multitude of man-hours are expected for such a large-scale event, an event that saw 236 people waiting at its doors Friday morning alone, Ringler said. But, after 22 years of annual events and a profit of over $185,000, both Ringler and Schroeder said what they really love is the camaraderie between them and the other devoted volunteers. “We have the same volunteers that come in year after year, and then we get a couple new ones each year,” Schroeder said. “It’s like a big family; everyone sees each other for the first time again and there’s hugs, kisses, and it’s just really great.”
Although the event has been going on since 1992, Schroeder and Ringler said it gains popularity every year and is now a staple for the community. Wood County resident Julie Amos heard about the sale in the local paper and was impressed in her first experience at the event. “I wish I would’ve come sooner,” she said. John Good, a resident from Fremont, Ohio, had similar thoughts about the event and said it was nice to see so many people donating to the cause. One hundred percent of the sale’s earnings go to shelter operations and general care for the animals, which includes around 75 to 100 cats and dogs. The shelter, established in 1904, “is a private, nonprofit, no-kill 501 (c)(3) organization that is home to numerous, domesticated animals resulting from owner surrenders, strays and cruelty cases”, according to the shelter’s website. Because there is only around $800 in costs to put on the event, Schroeder said the garage sale is the humane society’s second largest fundraising event.

CARS From Page 1 “We had to have a place to put all this cool stuff,” Snook said. People from all 50 states and several different countries such as Germany and Israel have come to visit the museum ever since it opened in 2002 from the efforts of a senior project through University Design Department. Snook said that the museum receives a couple hundred visitors each year. Snook has multiple ways of telling the public about his business. For example, he has mentioned Snook’s in the catalog, “Along I-75,” for people such as seniors to look at on their way down to Florida or other southern places for the winter. Snook has also promoted the business through television spots, radio, newspapers and magazines, but has
been using the Wood County Guide more recently to do so. The museum also offers more than just vintage car displays. Snook and other museum employees also specialize in consignment selling, fixing cars, and holding corporate events for companies and firms such as June Eastman and Smith. “I specialize in emptying your garage and filling your checkbook,” Snook said. One example of this occurred when a woman’s husband passed away and his car took up room in the garage, so she took the car to Snook’s and had them sell it for her. Snook’s is open to the public and is one of the only businesses of it’s kind in Northwest Ohio. General admission price is $6 all year long, while kids and tour groups are charged $4 and seniors are charged $5. Snook’s is located on County Home Road off of Route 6 in southern Bowling Green.
