T

he Yorktown Fire Department received a call at 10:30 p.m. about a motorcycle accident in January 2013. The cyclist was driving down a curvy road in Yorktown when he lost control and went into a stretch of trees. The roads were clear, but a layer of snow covered the ground.

Kurt Globerger had just arrived for one of his mandatory monthly overnight shifts, and he loaded into the fire truck with the senior firefighters to head to the scene.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” Globerger said. “It was the first automobile accident I had been on.”

Globerger had just finished his training to become a volunteer firefighter at the beginning of the year, and most of the calls he responded to were medical calls, which he could not assist in yet. This was the first call where he could put his training to the test.

The firefighters arrived on the scene first and located the biker 20 yards into the tress pinned beneath the bike. Following the senior firefighters’ lead, he assisted in freeing him from the bike, stabilizing and transporting him to the ambulance.

“The medical calls weren’t much of a rush and I was just carrying bags and holding open doors,” Globerger said. “That accident

was the first time I actually sat back and thought, ‘Wow, I feel like a fireman.’”

Globerger is just one of the handful of students who, on top of a full course load, volunteer at one of the nine local fire departments in Delaware County.

Globerger, a senior criminal justice major, is the only student volunteering at the Yorktown Fire Department, but at any given time there are one to three students volunteering at each of the departments in Muncie, training officer Chris Thorner said.

“There is always interest from students in volunteering at these departments,” Thorner said. “I’d say the ratio of student volunteers compared to those that just live in the community is about one in 10.”

Late game woes plague Ball State

Time expires with football on 2-yard line in loss to FCS school DAVID POLASKI CHIEF REPORTER | @DavidPolaski Through the first three games, Ball State football’s offense has gone silent when the fourth quarter starts.

During the fourth quarter, the Cardinals have been outscored 24-0, after outscoring opponents 63-30 in the first three quarters.

“I don’t think we’re out of shape, I think our summer conditioning program is excellent,” Ball State head coach Pete Lembo said. “The situations have been different every week.”

Two weeks ago against Colgate, Ball State spent most of the fourth quarter trying to run out the clock, not trying to score. Against Iowa last week, Ball State tried a similar strategy, which backfired as Iowa took the lead with a minute left in the game.

With the game on the line against Indiana State, Ball State came up two yards short, after quarterback Ozzie Mann was tackled on the two-yard line and the clock expired.

Decreasing state funding causes cuts, tuition rises Formula determines amount allotted per university in Indiana |

KARA BERG CHIEF REPORTER knberg2@bsu.edu

Indiana has steadily decreased the amount of funding for Ball State in the past five academic years.

In the 2010-2011 year, 40 percent of Ball State’s budget was funded by the state. This year, state funding is 36 percent.

However, the overall budget has grown 2.9 percent this year.

Michael Hicks, professor of economics and business research, said the amount of money that states give to universities is a legislative decision made by a formula maintained by the Indiana Commission of Higher Education. They look at how much money has been spent in past years, how much flexibility universities have in raising tuition and how much money the state has to give.

“If tax revenues are up, that usually means additional money for the state or universities.

If tax revenues are down, maybe not,” Hicks said. “It’s not the cost of education that’s going up, it’s that the state is bearing a lower share. So, public schools are going to be more like private universities in the sense that the majority of income is going to come from

UNIVERSITY PARKING AND ISSUED PERMITS In years past, Ball State has issued more parking permits than the number of dedicated spaces available. In 2013, the university issued 13,459 parking permits for the 9,920 spaces available. Only 9,451 permits have been sold this year at the time of printing.

students and research.”

As a result of the decreases, Ball State has had to make changes to where money comes from to keep tuition low for students. The university gets all of its money from state appropriations, students and tuition, and a small amount of other revenues, including contracts and grants.

Bernard Hannon, associate vice president of business affairs and assistant treasurer, said when many universities lose state funding, they push off those extra costs on the students and raise tuition.

“We’ve tried to be very judicious at Ball State to make sure we’re not replacing every dollar we lose from the state with student dollars,” Hannon said.

Tuition has gone up two percent in the past two years.

“We’ve tried to be very careful about pushing the cost off on students and families, we’re trying to have some fair sharing of the burden,” Hannon said.

But because of this, Hannon said there is less money for the university to do what it needs to do.

“We have less money for immersive learning, less money for faculty, less money for library materials and so on,” he said.

The university sets aside extra money for faculty, since it takes good faculty to teach good students and make their educational experience the best it can

BALL STATE BUDGET VS. STATE FUNDING

The university’s operating budget for the 2014–2015 year is $342,210,000. State funding makes up about $123,195,600 of the budget. Between this year and last year, state funding decreased by one percent. The graphic below represents Ball State’s operation budget for the past five years in comparison to state funding for the same amount of time.

be, Hannon said.

He said for each dime other universities pay their faculty, Ball State pays seven cents.

“So, as we compete for the best faculty members with all the other colleges around the Midwest and the country and the world, we have less money to pay them, so it makes our job much more difficult getting the people we’d like to have here,” Hannon said.

To save money, the university tries to spend less on some expenses, like utilities.

“We have to have light and heat and things, but we don’t want to spend more than we

have to,” Hannon said. “Because whether you have a dollar or 90 cents, you’re still lit, you still have heat. And so by trying to eliminate or reduce those administrative expenses, we’ve put money into the educational side of the university.”

well,” she said.

There are 184 spots at the L.A. Pittenger Student Center parking garage, 96 are available.

Jordan Thurman, a sophomore telecommunications and journalism major, said he usually doesn’t struggle to find parking.

“My schedule plays a role in it too. I have evening classes, so my day starts at one,” Thurman said. “If I need to stay on campus after that, my car is already here and I have a space. All the lots are usually open.”

It’s about convenience, living north of campus, he said.

“The parking lot by [the] arena is actually really big and there are always open spots. I don’t usually go to that side of campus [south], if I do I usually have a roommate drop me off,” he said.

Michael Burayidi, chairperson for the department of urban planning, said he could understand the university’s decision in the number of permits it issues in relation to the number

of spaces on campus.

“The rationale might be because not everyone is going to be here at the same time,” Burayidi said. “Say you have 100 spaces, you would then issue about 120 permits, with the hope that not all 120 [will] be here at the same time.”

He said a parking services office should aim to issue a number of permits that add up to no more than 120 percent of the available spaces. Also, if the university hasn’t conducted a study to see the peaks in fullness of the lots, they should.

Todd said they have taken this into account.

“It’s important to note that the university has maximized parking spaces within the limitations of the campus boundaries,” Todd said. “Part of this maximization is providing multiple levels of parking in garages, which allows more cars to park in the same area than if it were just surface parking.”

Hotel, residence hall PROJECT TIMELINE 23, 2012 still being designed, April The university gives a written offer to Chris planned since 2012 $400,000 Hiatt, owner of Hiatt Printing, for his business.

WEDDLE STAFF REPORTER | TAYLOR tcweddle@bsu.edu After demolishing the former Hiatt Printing building, Ball State has yet to begin construction on the McKinley Commons project.

Tony Proudfoot, associate vice president for marketing and communication, said designers are working on exact details for the project. After the designs are finalized, they will be sent out for bidding on construction.

The building will consist of a hotel, residence hall, restaurant, a sales area and classrooms designated for those particular studies.

Planning for the project began in 2012 but was halted when Chris Hiatt, owner of Hiatt Printing, declined Ball State’s $400,000 offer for the property.

After a dropped eminent domain case, Hiatt Printing closed this summer. The university bought the land for $450,000.

Deanna Pucciarelli, program director of the Family and Consumer Sciences department, said the hotel will be run by a collaboration between Ball State and a commercial company.

nity partners,” she said. “In this case, the community partner will be the hotel franchise.”

Students will be able to help lead sales and host events in the hotel, as well as work residence hall positions and help out in the restaurant and with catering.

The classrooms will be in the basement, and the hotel open to the public will be in a separate wing.

Pucciarelli said Ball State’s Family and Consumer Sciences program is the first in the U.S. to have incorporable elements in a living-learning community.

The project is set to be completed by April 2016.

Trailing Indiana State 27-20 on the Indiana State eight-yard line with 19 seconds left, Ball State had a chance to tie the game.

Quarterback Ozzie Mann scrambled to his right and took off running, tackled at the two-yard line. The final seconds ticked away, and the Cardinals came up just short of sending the game into overtime.

“Ozzie scrambled and should have tried to get out of bounds so we have time for at least two more plays,” Ball State head coach Pete Lembo said.

Coach adjusts team lineup in hopes of better consistency JAKE FOX ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR | @fakejox3 Team defense is one of the most complex aspects in sports, and the Ball State women’s volleyball team is learning this firsthand.

“We were basically like a roller coaster on defense,” head coach Steve Shondell said after his team finished 0-3 at the HotelRED Invitational. “We were very good at times and not so good at times. That was kind of the story of our weekend.”

The team began the weekend by facing off against Missouri State. While the Cardinals were in a position to open the tournament with a victory, they dropped a five-set loss to the Lady Bears.

Against Missouri State, Shondell tweaked the lineup, moving redshirt junior Alex Fuelling from her normal outside hitter position to libero. It was her first career start at the libero position, where she remained all weekend.

Fuelling responded well to the position change, keeping rallies alive all tournament and accumulating 59 digs.

Redshirt junior outside hitter Alex Fuelling celebrates after a play in the match against Western Illinois on Aug. 29 at Worthen Arena. Fuelling had 17 digs.

“I thought, overall, for [Fuelling’s] first weekend playing the libero position, for the first time in her life, she did a very incredible job,” Shondell said. “I know she would’ve liked to play a little better at times.”

Fuelling will remain at the libero position for the near future, as Ball State’s defense showed improvement with the change.

After finishing a late match

against Missouri State on Friday, the team returned to the court for an early 11 a.m. match against Miami (Fla.) on Saturday.

The Cardinals came out firing on all cylinders against the Hurricanes, jumping out to a 2-0 match lead, but were again unable to secure a win, dropping the final three sets.

Ball State held Miami (Fla.) to just a .109 attack percent-

age in the first two sets. In the final three sets, the Hurricanes were able to attack at a .441 percentage.

In the tournament’s final match, Ball State faced No. 4 Wisconsin, getting swept 3-0.

Junior setter Jenna Spadafora was the lone Cardinal named to the all-tournament team.

Spadafora registered 102 assists over the weekend, while also tallying 24 kills, with an attack percentage of .448. Against Missouri State, she finished just one kill shy of a triple double of kills, assists and digs.

Ball State plays at IPFW on Wednesday, and then travels to play in the VCU Invitational beginning Friday.

With conference play just around the corner, Shondell hope his team will begin to show more consistency.

“I just feel like, right now, we are still trying to find ourselves as a team,” Shondell said. “We are still trying to find the best combination, and sometimes it takes time to put a puzzle together.”

Ball State struggled to run the ball throughout the quarter; Mann missed receivers and was sacked twice.

With the game on the line against Indiana State, Ball State came up two yards short, after quarterback Ozzie Mann was tackled on the two-yard line and the clock expired. Ball State struggled to run the ball throughout the quarter; Mann missed receivers and was sacked twice.

“We’ve got to take a look at how balanced we’re staying and moving the chains in general,” Lembo said.

Ball State achieved five first downs in the fourth quarter, three of them coming during the final drive, when the Cardinals were already trailing. When the game was tied in the fourth quarter, Ball State committed a penalty, gave up two sacks, threw three incompletions, had three rushes of two yards or less and punted three times.

Running backs Jahwan Edwards and Horactio Banks were also shut down in the fourth, combining for just 11 yards on four carries.

“We were just in bad position, getting behind the chains and not completing passes on first down,” Edwards said. “We had to throw the ball again on second down.”

Edwards finished the game with 75 yards on 20 carries and a touchdown. He had just one carry in the fourth quarter, a run of five

“You’ve got two options there, you throw it in the dirt incomplete and it stops the clock, or you get out of bounds,” Lembo said. “But you can’t get tackled inbounds.”

Ball State had just one timeout heading into its final drive, using two on Indiana State’s previous drive to stop the clock.

Lembo said not having all the timeouts in his pocket played a factor, as Ball State could have stopped the clock after Mann’s run that ended the game.

Even then, Lembo wasn’t sure what the problem is regarding the lack of fourth quarter offense.

In the game’s final quarter, Mann went 8-of-15 for 59 yards. Banks had three rushes for six yards.

GLOBERGER: Yorktown volunteer firefighter follows in father’s, uncle’s footsteps | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Every year, new students apply to be volunteer firefighters. This year, four new students applied for the training at the Yorktown Fire Department.

The training starts with a 40- to 60-hour class in background of hazardous material. It is followed with a basic firefighter class where trainees learn how to use the ladder and hose, how to help out in car accidents and how to ride in the truck. The Indiana Department of Homeland security requires a total of 227 hours.

“All of these classes are free, and these volunteers are getting a great deal of skills that they can carry with them,” Thorner said. “They also are joining a community of people that make a difference in the community, and there are few things that beat that.”

Globerger started his training in October of 2012; that following January he was a certified firefighter.

The second semester of his sophomore year, Globerger was a full-time student, worked part-time at the Jo Ann Gora Student Recreation and Wellness Center, and started fulfilling his 24 hours a month of volunteer time at the Yorktown Fire Department. He has done the balancing act since.

When he is not in class or working on campus, Globerg-

« He’s really become part of our little family here. He’s dedicated and committed, and just an overall great guy. » DAVID BOONE, Yorktown fire chief er spends his time at the fire department tucked away off of Smith Road in Yorktown.

While there, he can keep up with homework or relax with coworkers, playing video games or watching TV in the living quarters.

“People wonder why I spend my time here so often instead of going out on weekends, and it’s simple; I made a commitment and this is what I love doing,” he said. “I don’t regret trading in a stereotypical college life for what I have now.

It’s something that I’ve been around my whole life.”

Globerger grew up in a family of firefighters.

Both his dad and his uncle were firefighters his entire life, and at an early age he wanted to do the same thing.

“Of course, his mind changed as he grew up,” his dad, Wayne Globerger, said.

“One day he wanted to be a firefighter, the next a professional baseball player and then an architect, but we’ve always supported him.”

Wayne is the Fire Chief in Glenview, Ill. He knows the dangers his son faces going into this line of work, but took a backseat and watched as

Kurt developed his skills and passion for the job on his own.

“He’s a really good kid, and looks at [the job] the right way,” his dad said. “I told him going into it [to] keep his mouth shut, don’t let them know his dad is a fire chief and do it his own way. He’s done that and I am very, very proud for how far he has come.”

Growing up, Kurt saw the trials and triumphs that his dad faced, and how important it was to have family support in a job like this. He would visit his dad at the station on holidays and grew close to the people that his dad worked with and their families. It is something he has done in the Yorktown Fire Department as well.

The fire department hosts get-togethers with the firefighters’ families, or goes out to football games together to keep everyone involved.

“In a dangerous job like this, you have to have support, otherwise your head isn’t in it and that’s dangerous not only for yourself but for the people that work around you,” Kurt said.

The Yorktown Fire Department responds to an average of one to three calls a day, or

a medium of 500 calls a year, most of which are medical calls where they assist EMS. Only about 20 percent of the calls they go on are fires.

Most of the fires Kurt has gone on can be extinguished through a tactic called “surround and drown,” where they surround the area the fire is in and hit it with hoses.

The number one concern of the department is safety, so the firefighters never enter a house that is already unstable to enter.

“When I am in a house that is on fire, I just focus on my breathing to remain calm,” Kurt said. “It can be loud when things collapse, so you think you’re right by it, but you know that you are in a safe spot.”

For Kurt, volunteering is just as much a career choice as it is a personal one. He continually attends any training he can to enhance his abilities, and spends as much time at the station as he can.

“He’s really become part of our little family here,” said David Boone, Yorktown fire chief. “He’s dedicated and PHOTO PROVIDED BY KURT GLOBERGER committed, and just an overall Kurt Globerger stands with his father Wayne Globerger. Kurt knew at an early age that he wanted to be a firefighter like his father. great guy.”
