Black Swamp artists reflect on festival’s significance By Kyrstin James Reporter Food, art and people filled downtown Bowling Green this weekend at the Black Swamp Arts Festival. Art plastered every booth, store front and street corner of Main Street as artists displayed their work to festival attendees. For local artists like Tobe Drew, manager of Ink Mafia, the festival was an opportunity to learn, inspire and create.

“(The festival) allows us to take a look at outer-artist culture and learn from them. It’s a great way to connect with artists from across the world, forming lifetime bonds,” said Drew. “Art has afforded me an amazing life and Bowling Green is my canvas,” said Drew. The festival was also an opportunity to see a variety of different kinds of art. Artist Jan Byron of Dallas, Texas, had a booth lined with little dolls wrapped in colorful crochet.

Vendors and artists come from all over the country to attend BSAF. George Bragg of Panama City, Florida, along with his fiancé and dog, lives in a camper and travels the country making art and attending art shows. Referring to BSAF, Bragg said, “This is
just an art mecca. I do shows all over the country, but this is always a great show for me. It’s very supported by the community.” His pieces combine “found art” and metal work to create wall décor. The intricate copper and brass sheets, hammered and pieced together with little elements of stone and wood, each held a story all their own. Bragg went around his tent pointing out his found art and recalling how he had

Merit based humanities has obstables This is a response to Bryan Eberly’s Sept. 10 column: Bryan, I think I understand your concern, and I’m pretty sure I empathize with it, but there are a few things you say that I’m unsure about; chiefly, when you say that writing cannot be judged by who is writing it, but rather it must always be judged by its content. There’s a never-ending conversation in the humanities world about separating the author from what they write. You’re saying it’s very possible to do so and that it should be done at all possible opportunities. Others say that separating the writer from their writing takes an imperative part out of the writing. I’m not sure what’s right in this situation, but I know that I tend to mix both approaches. Some academics separate Martin Heidegger from his Nazi affiliations because what he writes deserves serious consideration, but if the same was done

Michael Milhim Guest Columnist to some of the early Greek philosophers they would be discounted because of their treatment of women, animals and those of different cultural backgrounds than them in their writing. These decisions are difficult to make, and anyone should feel free to criticize them. While I do agree that it’s problematic to use an author’s name as a first-level publication filter, there is good intention in this practice. Groups of people have been underrepresented or excluded in the writing world and other communication mediums – you acknowledge that the world favors white males. I struggle with what “underrepresented” means, and with how I should treat my white maleness in respect to

individuals and groups different than me. If it was up to me to make these kind of decisions in publication or elsewhere the world would be stuck in the pass because I’d be too afraid to make a choice. That’s why I think things such as the challenge you mention at the beginning of your column are good. Instead of trying to exclude a group, they look at what group has the loudest voice and challenge people to mute that voice for a while and listen to ones that have been a bit quieter. After that bit of time we can un-mute that loudest voice and see if we can hear those quieter voices a little better. I’m afraid if we do as you suggest and blind ourselves to the source of a piece of writing that problems of underrepresentation or outright exclusion could persist indefinitely, because it refuses to acknowledge historical prejudice in publication and popularity.

Wariness in discerning friend from foe, trust issues ensue
Trust. What are friends without it? What are family with it? What are intimate relationships without it? No matter what you do, trust revolves around our lives left and right. I f t here’s no t r u st , t hen t here’s not h i ng else. Have you ever had someone that you thought you could trust? I did. I’ve come in contact with plenty of these “people” who I claimed to be legitimate. But later on I realized that they were big bald face liars. When I said liars, they were LYING. People will do that to you. People will lie and tell you anything just to get by. They’ll tell you that they think you’re a cool person, they might even tell you that they love you if they’re a significant other. Your own friends could tell you that they like you but may begin talking about you behind your back. There’s just so many things that could make you question a person’s trust and credibility. I’ve realized I’ve been too naïve in my life and that eventually, you just got to wake up and smell the coffee brewing. People in life are so fake, its unreal. You can’t trust anyone. If you’re reading
Torrance Vaughn Guest Columnist this, my advice for you is to watch who your real friends are. If you don’t talk to them on at least a weekly basis whether it’s calling or just texting, then they’re not your friends. They’re your associates. It’s very important to establish the difference between the two. If you assume everyone is your friend, you could end up being really disappointed because one of your “friends” didn’t keep it real with you. Not everyone’s your friend, and not everyone’s truthful, and I understand that now. There’s untruthful people everywhere, even here at Bowling Green. I would rather someone just be up front and honest about how they feel about me as a person instead of lying straight to my face. It’s quite sad and unfair. I’ve had a huge revelation on people. People are only out for themselves and only themselves and they don’t care who they may lie to in the process. Just remem-
ber to keep your distance from the people who lie to you. You’re much better off. You can’t be nice to everyone and I now know that. Being too nice to too many people is what causes you to have trust issues with friends and associates. Real friends attempt to hang out with you, real friends invite you to functions, and real friends don’t lie. People that actually like you don’t lie to you when they say they like you. They show it to you. People show you that they like you as opposed to just saying it. No matter if they’re a friend, Greek brother or sister, or even family. It’s very crucial that you look for these signs with people. If you do this, then you shouldn’t have a problem making the perfect social circle in your life. I have a question for all you readers. How do you think people should show their friendship towards you? Should you just see them every now and then and they just tell you “You’re a cool person” or would you want them to actually show them that you two are friends?

For every fashion, there is a season Fall is just around the corner and I am so ready. I can’t figure out why, but I cannot dress for summer. Its almost like it is too simple for me. In the fall, you can wear more, yet not quite as much as you would wear in winter when you are bundled up to your ears. Tights, scarves, the best hats - I really pull all the stops in fall. I went out on Friday, one of first chilly nights on the town so far, in a grey, calflength jersey pencil skirt with a beaded pink top and a denim jacket. On my feet were white retro strap back three inch pumps. A giant tear-drop opal necklace tied everything together. It was one of those nights that I truly felt like my

essential self. Don’t get me wrong, I love (and try to dress cute for) summer. I have now three killer rompers and a zillion pairs of shorts. But I lack sundresses and appropriate tops. Something in me just ultimately feels inept at summer style, or at least just a little short of my personal fashion standards. My boyfriend is a natural fall dresser, as well. I toy with the idea that its one
of those little things that brought us together in the cosmos (although we met in summer). I had a roommate once that lived for winter. She had four full-blown winter coats. I loved the one that was (faux) fur f loor length. She had inherited it from her aunt. I do believe it is very natural to have a time of year that one feels at their most authentic self - fashion is merely one aspect of expressing this. If this sounds a little like horoscope silliness, maybe it is, but I will stand by myself when I say I love it. Respond to Tabitha at thenews@bgnews.com
Continued from Page 3 did experience a form of prejudice, but maybe the publishing house was just cha llenging themselves to listen for those quieter voices. You seem to largely ignore this concept of listening to quieter voices, save for the third paragraph, and even then you express it in terms of the loudest voice and leave it at that. This concept is a very pertinent factor in Mr. Hudson’s situation, but you did not even seem to consider it as part of the situation – you left it as a saveit-for-later. Did Mr. Hudson himself ever express that he felt discriminated against? Let’s not completely separate the author from their writing, but let’s also consider the text by itself. Considering the author over the text makes writing and publication a question of demographics and justice, which depreciates the craft of writing to a significant degree. Considering the text over the over the author turns a blind eye to the historical white straight male preference in writing and publication and supports the problematically indifferent attitude toward looking for and seriously considering alternative voices. Considering both the text and the author at least gives us a fighting chance to find a just balance between all voices. Respond to Michael at thenews@bgnews.com

By Aaron Parker Sports Editor The Bowling Green football team handed the Maryland Terrapins one of its worst losses in years on Saturday, defeating the Terps 48-27 on Maryland’s home field. The win came behind another career night from quarterback Matt Johnson, who threw six touchdowns and 491 passing yards. “If we think we can attack a team a certain way, that’s the way we’re going to go about it,” Johnson said. “In the first half you have to tip your hat to them, they were able to make stops. But in the second half we made our adjustments and we were able to execute them.” The Falcons scored just six points in the first half and went into halftime on a 13-6 deficit, despite having the advantage in yardage. Following a 55 minute rain delay to start the second half, it was the Bowling Green defense that put the team into position to rack up possessions. The defense that gave up 59 points just a week
ago, held Maryland to 14 points in the second half and forced four turnovers. “When you give us turnovers, you’re playing with dynamite,” head coach Dino Babers said. The Falcon defense allowed coach Babers’ high-tempo offense to fit in 105 plays to Maryland’s 59. The Falcons also gained 692 total yards, which is the most under Babers and just 14 yards shy of a school record, to the Terrapin’s 341. Sophomore receiver Roger Lewis was the target of two touchdown passes and recorded a career high 200 receiving yards from Johnson. “I haven’t had a game like this since high school,” Lewis said. “Matt Johnson was able
to spread the love around.” In addition to Lewis, Johnson also connected on touchdown passes with Robbie Rhodes, Ryan Burbrink, Derek Lee and Gehrig Dieter. Four of those touchdowns came in the fourth quarter. The other offensive highlight was the ground game for the Falcons, with Fred Coppet rushing for 109 yards on 15 carries. Redshirt senior Travis Greene, who is one of the best running backs to ever put on the Falcon uniform, gained just 65 yards on 18 carries. While the yardage (which was an average 3.6 yards per carry) was less than what Greene is used to, he still managed to add a touchdown to the board on a three yard run. The win is the second straight year that Bowling Green has defeated a team in the Big Ten Conference. It was also the first road win against a Power Five Conference team since 2008. “I was happy for the defensive kids, I was happy for the defensive coaches,” Babers said. “I was happy for our football team.”

Falcons tie against Valparaiso By Evan Hayes Sports Reporter The Bowling Green Women’s soccer team was in action on the road this weekend, tying Valparaiso 1-1 on Sunday. Their record is now 4-2-1 on the season, their best since 1999. “I think we did well to get out with a tie,” head coach Lindsay Basalyga said. “We are still learning so much about what it takes to compete at this level day in and day out and it’s nice to do that on the heels of a road result.” The Falcons started off strong, with Morgan Abbitt and Madison Schupbach taking shots on goal at the 3rd and 4th minute respectively. Team co-captain Hayley Parkinson’s shot was saved at the 12th minute, then Erica Hubert’s header sailed high at the 13th minute and Shupbach’s attempt was blocked at the 20th minute. Skylar Fleake finally found the back of the net after receiving a lead pass from Mikaela Couch in the box, putting a shot past Valparaiso’s goalie from twelve yards out. It was Fleake’s second straight game with one goal and Couch’s third assist of the season, which leads the team. The Falcons went the rest of the period without a shot attempt, but were able to stave off an attack by Valparaiso on the strength of goalie and co-captain Lauren Cadel’s six first
half saves. Cadel recorded 19 saves for the game, breaking the previous team record of 17. “Lauren played really well and definitely made a few huge saves to keep us in the hunt,” Basalyga said. The Crusaders evened the game in the second half, as April Cronin put a shot past Cadel off a rebounded shot that hit off the crossbar. But BG held the Crusaders scoreless the rest of the half, sending the game to overtime despite being outshot 14-2. The match then went into overtime, looking for the golden goal to win the game. Couch had a chance with a shot from outside the box during the 93rd minute, but her attempt was saved by Crusader’s goalie Sydney Galvez-Daley. Fleake then had two chances to win the game for BG in the second overtime, but her first attempt sailed high by only a few inches. Galvez-Daley saved her second after Fleake broke free one-on-one off a failed clearance by the Crusaders. Despite not scoring in overtime, Basalyga was proud of her team’s extra energy. “I liked our mentality in overtime,” Basalyga said. “There was definitely a sense that we were going to score and I think if we had a few more minutes in the game we could have found a win.

USG looks into tobacco ban, University officials discuss marijuana legalization
By Courtney Brown Reporter Though smoke-free regulations are already in place, Undergraduate Student Government is considering taking steps to make the University a tobacco-free campus. USG President Victor Senn said it was “proactive of (the University)” to become a clean-air campus three years ago, and becoming a tobacco-free campus is a possibility the students should be aware of. Senn also said “a lot of schools have become tobacco-free” and this was part of the reason the University started to take notice of the policy. Being a tobacco-free campus goes beyond the clean-air policy currently in affect on campus. Smoke-free regulations are meant to protect non-smokers from second-hand smoke, but may still
allow smoking in designated areas. However, tobacco-free campuses would prohibit students from having any tobacco products on campus whatsoever, including tobacco products that don’t cause second-hand smoke such as chewing tobacco. Senn wanted to let the student body know that so far USG is not sure about the University becoming a tobacco-free campus, and it’s “not something that’s happening right now.” The student government wants to be more informed about what the student body would like to do about this before they take any action, whether it be moving forward with the idea or striking it down. Another smoking issue that is going to be decided in Ohio this November is the legalization of marijuana. The possible legalization raises many questions about how it could affect Ohio campuses and schools.

Faith Yingling, director of Wellness Connection, said she didn’t want to speak for the University, but she’s been involved in enough to have an idea of the campus’s plan if marijuana is legalized. Yingling said, “If it were legalized, it’s still considered an illegal drug (by) the federal government, and we receive federal funding.” Therefore, the drug would still not be allowed on campus. There is also the matter of what will happen to students if they are caught with marijuana on campus. In an email, Assistant Dean of Students Jeremy Zilmer stated, “At this point in time, we are still in the process of determining what the exact impact would be on campus, including any University policies, if the law does go into effect.” As such, students will not be made aware of any policy changes or consequences until and if the law goes into effect.

NEWS New brewery turns dream into reality By Cherise Thomas Reporter Justin Marx has dreamt of having his own brewery since he was 21 years old; now he owns and operates the recently-opened Bowling Green Beer Works brewery. “I wanted to start a neighborhood brewery,” said Marx. He described his business as a nano-brewery, meaning he brews less than three barrels of beer at a time. Marx, an Oregon native, said his inspiration came from the Pacific Northwest where many nano-breweries are located. Bowling Green Beer Works opened Sept. 11 on North Grove Street. Bowling Green Beer Works has six styles of beer: Apple Graff, Blonde, Seasonal, IPA, Pale Ale and Stout, which is Marx’s favorite to make. The process of brewing, Marx said, begins with grain and adjuncts. He doesn’t use

adjuncts like rice or corn; he only uses barley. “A lot of cheap commercial beer uses rice and corn. That’s one of the primary separators between craft beer and commercial industrial, every day beer,” he said. Marx says that brewing is a process that takes a lot of work. “It’s basically like making a tea with the grains,” he explained. This then becomes the beer wort, Marx said. The wort is boiled and flavored with different hops. The process takes Marx six hours. Cooling and fermenting the beer takes “two to three weeks.” “It’s kind of magical,” he said. “There’s a lot of craft and science behind it.” Students living in Bowling Green are open to the idea of new venues that serve beer. “I’m always open to the idea of a new pub,” University student Ian Robinson said. “Because that means a new pub is potentially better than my favorite old pub.”

Continued from Page 2 come across it. Glass artist Karen Breitwieser of Sylvania, Ohio, had a booth where wind chimes chimed in the wind and glass pieces sparkled in the sunshine. This year’s BSAF was successful for her in sales. “I have had a lot of sales today, so I am a very happy camper. I have had shows where I didn’t sell anything. When you hit a show like this, it really lifts you up and pushes you to the next one,” Breitwieser said. She said she found her passion for glass through a class at an art museum. “I took a class at the art museum and I had my choice between glass blowing and warm glass. The glass blowing class was full, so I took warm glass and the rest is history,” said Breitwieser. Some attendees of BSAF, like Mark Mohrenweiser of Ann Arbor, Michigan, find the festival to be inviting and engaging. “The past couple of years (BSAF) has been good,” Mohrenweiser said. “The people are nice and supportive. People are willing to talk. There are some shows where they do more walking than stopping and interacting.” Drew agreed that community is what brings the festival to life. “This is the most amazing art community I have ever been a part of,” Drew said. “It is a cornucopia of amazingness.”
