Campus security report released
2016 numbers show drops in alcohol arrests, referrals Casey Smith News Editor
Drops in arrests and disciplinary referrals for alcohol were listed in the annual campus security report, which the Clery Act for campus security disclosure mandates be released each year. According to the 2016 campus security report released Friday, 681 alcohol arrests or referrals (which do not imply arrest) in 2014 dropped more than 33 percent to 458 in 2015, The majority of the reports from the University Police Department, however, were disciplinary referrals occurring on campus without arrest. Of the 458 alcohol-related incidents, 432 happened on campus, and only 20 of the on-campus reports resulted in arrest. Increases in drug abuse violation referrals were also listed in the yearly report. In 2015, 93 drug-related arrests or referrals were reported — a jump of just two incidents from 2014. The report shows 88 cases occurred in campus housing, with only 10 incidents ending in arrest — a drop from 27 on-campus drug arrests made in 2013. But referrals for drug-related incidents by UPD on campus rose to 78 in 2015 from the 54 issued in 2014. Additionally, the number of sex offenses reported rose, going from 19 total incidents in 2014 to 32 in 2015. According to the campus report, 18 incidents of rape were reported on campus and another eight were reported off campus. Stalking, which is reported as a Violence Against Women Act crime, also increased from 10 reports in 2014 to 12 reports in 2015. Other increases in crime last year included one case of arson, one case of vehicle theft and two cases of robbery. Aside from the increases, the university noted reductions in burglary offenses, and no aggravated assaults were noted in the 2015 report. Ball State did not list any hate crimes for the 2015 calendar year, and no incidents of crime were reported at the university's Indianapolis Center location, as well.

own two sets to none and trailing 20-15 in the third set to Youngstown State on Aug. 26, junior outside hitter Sabrina Mangapora stepped on the court for her first regular season match in nearly two years. She contributed a kill and back-to-back service aces to help bring Ball State back within two in a crucial third set. The Cardinals would go on to lose the match, but it was obvious that Ball State had regained a key member of their team. “I was so happy to be back,” Mangapora said. “To just be able to get back into rhythm and show them what I’ve got after waiting so long.” Those first two sets are also the only two she’s missed all season.

Appeals court upholds order against Pence on Syrian refugees The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A federal appeals court on Monday dismissed as “nightmare speculation” Indiana Gov. Mike Pence’s fears that Syrian refugees could commit acts of terror, siding with a judge who blocked Pence’s order seeking to prevent agencies from helping resettle the immigrants in the state. The ruling by a three-judge panel for the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago affirmed a preliminary injunction that a federal judge in Indianapolis issued in February. That judge found last year’s order by the Republican governor, now Donald Trump’s running mate, “clearly discriminates” against refugees from the war-torn nation. Pence was among dozens of gov-

ernors from mostly GOP states who attempted to block Syrian refugees following the terror attacks last November in Paris, saying there were questions about the federal government’s refugee screening process. Pence’s order sought to bar state agencies from providing federal funds for groups, including Indianapolis-based Exodus Refugee Immigration, that help Syrian refugees with housing, medical and social services and job training. But the appeals court, which subjected Indiana’s solicitor general to unusually fierce questioning during arguments before the panel in September, said in Monday’s ruling that federal law does not allow a governor “to deport to other states immigrants he deems dangerous.”

University energy efficiency project near completion State, Department of Energy fund 'green' campus initative Ben Barry Daily News Reporter Ball State did a lot of work on campus this summer to improve its energy efficiency, and the university's work on its current project is nearing completion. Jim Lowe, associate vice president for Facilities Planning and Management, said most of the work completed over the summer included installing distribution piping, which distributes hot water and chilled water to buildings on campus — work that will soon bring benefits to the university's sustainability. “We had two major focuses this summer. One was on University Avenue right across from Burris [Laboratory School] and Lucina [Hall]. The other focus was over by the east side of DeHority [Complex],” Lowe said. “It allows us to now connect buildings as we move into the winter, to the hot water side, and benefit yet more from the geothermal systems.” Lowe said Ball State acquired $82.9 million to cover the cost of the project, which is worth the reductions in cost to come in the future. The funding was provided by both the state of Indiana and the U.S. Department of Energy, “[This project] is reducing our carbon footprint by nearly 50 percent … [as well as] a 40 percent reduction in our energy use,” Lowe said. "We’ve estimated that this is a 50-year infrastructure project. We’ll just continue to repair it and upgrade it as needed — this system will serve the campus for decades to come." The project, Lowe said, is also estimated to reduce steam production, which will save about 45 million gallons of water every year. The changes have proven impressive, and Ball State’s reputation as a “green” university has also gone up as a result of the project, Lowe said. Representatives from 33 different colleges and universities across the nation have visited Ball State to learn about the sustainability system in order to adapt it to their own campuses. Engineering firms from Germany, Japan and Korea have also visited the university to view the system and learn about its benefits. Ball State is also one of 21 colleges across the country this year to make

the Princeton Review’s 2017 Green Honor Roll. Colleges achieve this by receiving a score of 99 (the highest possible score) in the Green Rating tallies, according to the Princeton Review's guidelines. “It’s drawn a lot of attention for the university. It’s given us a lot of visibility in terms of our green visibility," Lowe said. "People realized just how well we’re doing with
sustainability, and it’s not just this project … It’s the fact that we’ve had, for a number of years, a team of people who have been involved in sustainability on campus.” As for the duration of the project as a whole, Lowe said the construction is now within 10 months of completion.

University relies on lobbying to function Lobbyists advocate for state funding for universities Patrick Calvert Political Reporter Lobbying as a whole is generally looked at in a negative way. The reality is that lobbying is crucial for Ball State and similar universities across the country to function. “The vast majority of lobbyists are hardworking, honest people, who are great communicators and have wealth of knowledge in their particular area,” said Chad Kinsella, an assistant professor in the department of political science. Only 6 percent of Americans think lobbyists have a high standard of honesty and ethics according to a Gallup poll released in December 2013. Universities in a post-recession America rely on public funding to operate, and one way to obtain these funds is through lobbying the government. Kinsella said that lobbying is more important for universities nowadays because state funds are tight due to the great recession. “Funding cuts have hit and continue to hit higher education, which not only hurts state institutions but [also hurts] the communities where they exist and [the] students,” he said.
Not all lobbyists work for companies with massive amounts of wealth. There are lobbyists that represent municipalities, professions and causes. Universities compete with hundreds of other entities for funds, and the Indiana General Assembly determines how much a school receives in their two-year state budget. The state’s budget for the 2017 fiscal year allocates 35 percent of total funds to education. Ball State received around $140 million for the 2015-16 fiscal year and around $149 million for the 2016-17 fiscal year. Julie Halbig, the vice president of government relations and community engagement, is a lobbyist for Ball State who has worked as a government employee for the House Republican Caucus for about 12 years. Through her experience as a government employee, Halbig learned how to advocate on behalf of clients from the private, municipal and nonprofit sectors. “I have a solid understanding of the questions that legislators need answered in order to support an issue and how it fits into the overall picture for the state,” Halbig said. The Indiana state government looks to see if the university is meeting goals that are set by the state. These include degree

completion, on-time degree completion, high impact degrees and making sure atrisk students complete their degrees. The state government also wants to know how Ball State is serving Hoosiers and the state as a whole. “Close to 73 percent of our graduates remain in the state to live, work and play. Therefore, Ball State graduates are major contributors to a healthy Indiana economy,” Halbig said. “I think this message resonates with our elected leaders and gives Ball State influence within state government.”
Nothing is really free in life — including graduation. In order to walk across the stage and officially graduate, students are required to apply and pay a $25 fee. Applications open the semester before a student plans to graduate, and the applications for Spring 2017 graduates opened Sept. 1. Some students, however, said they feel uneasy about the fee, and even said it seems “unfair.” “We pay all of this money to go here and pay tuition and all of these other little fees everywhere all the time,” said senior biology major Sam Wright. “Why do we have to jump through another hoop and pay for this, too?” The fee is assessed for each degree a student is expected to receive. For students who majored in two areas, this means they’ll be charged for both degrees. According to Ball State’s website, the charge is used to defray the cost of reviewing the candidate’s academic record and diploma production. Nancy Cronk, who works in the office of the registrar, said the fee also helps pay for the graduation ceremony. Senior education major Mitch Baylor said he doesn’t think students who qualify to graduate should have to pay for their accomplishments, but for such a small amount, he likely won’t make much of a fuss. “It’s not a huge deal to me, but at the same time, it’s like, I got all the way to this point and the university kind of gets that last little bit of money out of us,” Baylor said. “I mean, it is only $25, so if we’re going to make a big deal about that, then there are a lot of things we could be getting upset about. But it’s not worth it — it’s just part of the process, I guess.” The deadline for applying to graduate online is the second course withdrawal period, according to bsu.edu. If students don’t submit the application prior to the beginning of their last term, it could mean that it will not be reviewed in time for them to be notified of any problems prior to the beginning of their last term.

MANGAPORA Continued from page 1
THE PROCESS
After being named to the Mid-American Conference All-Freshman Team in 2014, Mangapora began to feel some pain in her shoulder in April 2015. “I tried to do physical therapy for a month with the mindset that maybe I could strengthen everything around it,” Mangapora said. “I thought the pain would lessen enough where I could just make it through the season and get surgery afterwards, but that’s not how it turned out.” Physical therapy was unable to alleviate the pain, which led Mangapora to get surgery in July 2015. She would miss her entire sophomore season. “I knew I was going to be in for the long haul, and it kind of takes a toll on you when you get that news,” Mangapora said. “You kind of have to start back over getting in shape, and I had to basically reconstruct my arm swing with my new shoulder.” For someone who had as strong of a freshman year as Mangapora did, it was tough to have to watch from the sidelines. “I just felt like I had crawled my way in there and earned a starting spot and made a name for myself,” Mangapora said. “The whole time you just really want to be in on the action so badly.” Mangapora credits a lot of people for helping her through her rehabilitation process, but one person who went above and beyond was her teammate and roommate junior opposite Jessica Lindsey. Lindsey said her goal was to help make sure Mangapora still felt like she was a member of the team. “It makes you have that greater feeling of being a part of the team even though you can’t participate in anything, and that was my main goal to give to her,” Lindsey said. “She came out with a really big presence and then not being able to have her for my sophomore season was a huge change.”
THE RETURN
Prior to this season, Mangapora had career highs of 18 kills and eight digs. She’s already passed her career-high in kills four times (new career high of 22) and her career high in digs twice (new career high of 11). “I proved to myself early this season that my old career high is of the past,” Mangapora said. “This is a new year and a new me.” While it may be easy to try and compare Mangapora’s post-injury success to her pre-injury success, she said she tries not to think of it that way. “The fact that I am fresh off of an injury, I’ve never really used that to compare my success,” Mangapora said. “I’m not like ‘Oh I’m doing so great after coming off an injury.’ I’ve just looked at it as a new standard that I’m setting for myself.” Head coach Kelli Miller said Mangapora has embraced her role as one of the leaders of a young Ball State team this season — only one senior and four juniors are listed on the 18-player roster. “She’s always somebody that’s downto-earth, and she always understands what’s needed in the moment,” Miller said. “She has a really good feel of what the team needs and she’s able to control the whole team dynamic and that can be difficult but it’s something people really count on her for.” For a team that has three freshman players contribute heavily on a nightly basis, Miller said it’s important for them to look up to a player such as Mangapora. “I think she is somebody that leads by example, so you never doubt that she’s going to give her full effort every single day in practice,” Miller said. “She’s really directed traffic for us night in and night out, and I think that’s something the underclassmen see.”
THE FUTURE
With MAC play well underway, the Cardinals are tied for third in the MAC West with a 3-1 conference record (7-11 overall) after an 0-9 start to the season. “It was so frustrating because you could see how close we were,” Mangapora said. “Ever since then, I think we’ve stepped up, and we’ve discovered what it took [to win] and we’re ready to do it every single time.” Mangapora said she would really like to be a member of the All-MAC team, but she’ll need some help from her teammates for her biggest goal of all. “As a team, we need to win the MAC Championship, and I think we can do it this year,” Mangapora said. “I’d also like to win the regular season championship, too, because then next year we’d host the MAC Championship.” It might seem like a lofty goal, but she had an entire season of recovery to think about it. “Just win it all while we’re at it,” Mangapora said. “That would be awesome.”

The Ball State soccer team will play Western Michigan Thursday at 5 p.m. at the Briner Sports Complex. Last season, the Cardinals were the MAC regular season champion and Western Michigan was the MAC tournament champion.
Cardinals to face best in MAC Ball State set to play Western Michigan, Northern Illinois Jacob Lee Soccer Reporter Defending conference champions. Ball State soccer is off to a 3-0-1 MidAmerican Conference record (8-2-2 overall) start in its defense of its MAC regular season title, but on Thursday they’ll play Western Michigan, a team that takes exception to Ball State’s title claim. After all, the Broncos are the defending MAC Tournament champions. “Western Michigan are going to be a well experienced and seasoned program with a strong tradition of high level performances,” head coach Craig Roberts said. “I think they are going to bring a strong squad, again, to Muncie.” Western Michigan started the season 6-2 in non-conference play, including a victory against Indiana University. The Broncos are 2-2 in the MAC and will be missing redshirt junior goalkeeper Stephanie Heber, who won’t play after getting a red card 15 minutes into their
5-1 loss against Kent State Sunday. “[Playing without Heber] will obviously make things a little more interesting defensively for them,” Roberts said. “They’re a very technical team — we have all the respect for technical ability and their style of play. But we feel that we are definitely up for the competitiveness needed to compete with what they bring to the table.” After the 5 p.m. game against Western Michigan, Ball State will travel to DeKalb, Illinois, to play Northern Illinois Sunday. Last year, Northern Illinois had an underwhelming 1-4-2 record in nonconference play but are now second in the MAC West — one spot behind Ball State — with a 3-1 conference record that includes a 4-0 shutout against Central Michigan, which is the Chippewas’ only loss of the season. “NIU is a bit of a different team [than Western Michigan],” Roberts said “They’re usually a very strong team, a very physical team with a lot of focus on set pieces. We will have to make sure we are matching up effectively on the set
MAC WEST DIVISION STANDINGS • Ball State (3-0-1) • Northern Illinois (3-1) • Central Michigan (2-1-1) • Western Michigan (2-2) • Toledo (1-2-1) • Eastern Michigan (0-4)
pieces that they do.” NIU has only scored 10 goals in 11 games, but since starting MAC play the Huskies have scored two goals per game. Roberts said set pieces have bolstered NIU’s attack, but feels the Cardinals can adjust to those situations. “Sometimes what it comes down to is the ability to adapt and elevate your strengths against other teams’ weaknesses,” Roberts said. “I think that’s something we bring to the table. We’re a disciplined team, we’re deep, we’re fit and we’re focused on the game plan.” Sunday's game is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Contact Jacob Lee with any questions or concerns at @JPLeeBSU.

Located in Anderson, Stillwell Manor is a 22,000-square foot indoor haunted house filled with mazes, twisting halls and pitch-dark areas teeming with eerie spirits. This year, Stillwell Manor has included an all new “big top” area, where visitors can meet with fortuneteller Isabell, as well as a collection of freaky circus creatures. If you are not a huge thrill seeker but still want to visit Stillwell Manor, there are also special afternoons for the lessthan-brave, where visitors can enter the haunted house for a “lights on” session.

3. PINEY ACRE FARMS
When fall comes around, Piney Acre Farms, located in the heart of Hancock County, offers an assortment of fun-
3 filled activities. From pumpkin picking to hayrides and even an assortment of friendly barnyard animals, families can spend hours making memories at the 73-acre farm. But one of the most popular autumn attractions of Piney Acre Farms is their Haunted Farm. In 1692, Dr. E. Rex moved to Hancock County. In the following years, people and animals in the area slowly started to disappear. One night, the enraged townspeople confronted Rex, who then admitted he was responsible for all of the disappearances. Although the doctor was murdered, the location of his secret laboratory was never found — until now. Rumor has it that the doctor’s laboratory is actually located in a loft at the Haunted Farm. Visitors can come to the Haunted Farm and see exactly what happened to the doctor’s victims, as well as possibly see the ghost of Rex himself. For $32, or $30 if purchased online before your visit, guests can experience the three different attractions Piney Acre Farms offers: the haunted loft, the haunted corn maze and a haunted hayride. The Haunted Farm is open every Friday and Saturday night from now until Halloween weekend, from 7 to 10 p.m.

'When the Moon was Ours' blends cultures, magic BAILEY SHREWSBURY is a sophomore journalism major and writes “Taming of the Shrew” for the Daily News. Her views do not necessarily agree with those of the newspaper. Write to Bailey at bbshrewsbury@bsu.edu.
"When the Moon was Ours" by Anna-Marie McLemore is a story about a girl who came from a water tower and a boy struggling to be who he is. This story is set in a world of magical realism, where roses grow out of Miel’s wrist and the Bonner girls can make any boy fall in love with them. The story follows Miel and Sam closely — their struggles with finding themselves, finding each other and forgiving their past. There’s small, intimate details that make this story even more magical than it was to begin with.

Continued from page 1 Alexa Louden, a senior hospitality and food management major, was a kitchen manager during the restaurant’s test-run night. “It was fun to be able to create the menu and then see it followed through and see people enjoying it. There’s instant gratification,” she said. Students are mentored by Chef Clemens Averbeck, the course’s instructor. Originally from Germany, Averbeck has years of experience working in fine restaurants internationally — he owned his own prestigious German restaurant at 24 —

After Miel came out of the water tower, the hem of her dress or skirt is always wet. Each rose that grows from her wrist is a different color and size, depending on her mood and who caused it to grow. The rich cultures brought into this book are such a treat. Samir is from Pakistan and Miel, along with most of the town, is Mexican. The cultures are woven seamlessly into the plot and bring even more magic to this unforgettable tale. It took a while to grasp what exactly was going on in this story, but when I did, I couldn’t put it down.
and teaching other chefs how to improve their craft. He found this course interesting because of its unique goal. “This course is designed not to introduce students into the culinary arts, but into managerial skills — planning, organization, restaurant management. That is what this whole thing is about,” he said. Instead of focusing purely on the menu, the course emphasizes the ability of the students to complete the tasks at hand. The idea is that if the restaurant is managed well, everything else will fall into place. Though this can be difficult, the hands-on experience is invaluable. “You look to chef for direction, and he kind of just looks at you and says, ‘You’re the manager, it’s your call,’ and then you realize you need to give people direction, because unless you assign them to a task, they don’t know to accomplish it,” Louden said. “It shows me how to be a good manager,
This is a very diverse story, including LGBT themes, a transgender boy and rich, diverse cultures. This doesn’t seem like a story where the author is throwing in diversity to call their book a diverse book. It is part of the story and it truly wouldn’t be as magical without it. This book isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, however. It’s an acquired taste, with rich descriptions and plenty of magic. In magic realism, magic is all around and it belongs. It can be jarring to read something set in a world identical to ours, where
whether that be for a kitchen or not.” While students gain experience, patrons are able to enjoy fine dining right in the middle of campus. “I thought the food was exceptional for a student-[run] dining experience,” said Michael Lorenzano, a senior family and consumer science major. “My favorite part was definitely getting the opportunity to see classmates and friends engaged in a formal dining experience that they put together.” Allégre also builds bonds between the students. Louden said because the hospitality and dietetics majors are a relatively small group and have overlapping classes, many of the students know each other well before working at Allégre together. This has led to a comfort among the staff, and every night after the meal is over, the staff sits down together to eat and de-stress. Allégre is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. It is serving meals this week with the themes of Between the
people don’t blink an eye at magic. It’s easy to read fantasy or high fantasy, where the worlds have only a nod of our world mixed in. McLemore is known for her breathtaking debut, "The Weight of Feathers." Her books have a strong sense of magic and culture, aided by her Mexican-American heritage. She brings a perspective to these stories only someone who lived in these diverse cultures could truly give.

Sidney Barkdull Daily News Reporter Cardinal Kitchen, opened for the year in midSeptember, and is open every Tuesday from 5 to 8 p.m. Located in the Multicultural Center, Cardinal Kitchen aims to provide necessary items, such as food and toiletries, to students who don’t have the means to get them. “The mission of the Cardinal Kitchen is to ensure that no Ball State student goes hungry on our campus,” said Jes Wade, Cardinal Kitchen’s unit director and a graduate student. Madison Lyon, a junior English and Spanish major, is Cardinal Kitchen’s executive director. Lyon said the kitchen will provide 12 non-perishable items per student, but will also have a number of perishables and toiletries available. The pantry receives funding through the Student Government Association and partners with the Second Harvest Food Bank of East Central Indiana. They also receive donations from various oncampus organizations. “It’s very exciting to see people within the Ball State community getting involved with the Ball State community,” Lyon said. The relationships built between those involved have made an impact on volunteers. “I have gotten to build relationships with a lot of different people because of the Cardinal Kitchen. The clients, volunteers and donors have impacted my life for the better,” Wade said. Students who come to the Cardinal Kitchen will be given intake forms to fill out and an inventory sheet on which they will mark the 12 items they want. A volunteer goes upstairs and boxes up the items. All students are welcome to utilize Cardinal Kitchen’s services.
