he Ball State defense needed a tornado siren to slow down the Toledo offense Saturday night and into Sunday morning in the 34-23 loss to the Rockets. Thirteen offensive plays in for the Rockets, and the Cardinals were trying to figure out how they had already given up two rushing touchdowns to quarterback Logan Woodside, who had never rushed for a touchdown in his collegiate career. The first came before a two hour and 42 minute weather delay. The second came less than three minutes after the game resumed. “The kids were really excited to play and to their credit they were very resilient during that time we were in the locker room,” Ball State head coach Pete Lembo said. “They would have played this game at three in the morning.”

Fair speaker teaches youth sustainability Keynote lecturer talks to 7,000 students prior to Living Lightly ALAN HOVORKA CHIEF REPORTER | afhovorka@bsu.edu
A past comedian brought his talents to Muncie Saturday to speak about a serious issue: sustainability. More than 100 people from Muncie and Ball State listened to Jim Poyser, the keynote speaker for the Living Lightly Fair. Poyser discussed the obstacles to awareness and education about sustainability. “That’s the hardest thing: how do you communicate the predicament, because then it becomes, ‘What do we do about India?’” he said. “Well, we can’t really worry about India. Let’s just do cool
stuff right here and teach kids the right skills and just let it go.” Laura Buckles, a 16-year-old junior from Muncie Central High School and a member of the recycling club, agreed. “He was really descriptive and liked to get the audience involved,” she said. “Usually, [speakers] just try to push it on kids. He actually showed examples. It was not another boring lecture.” Over the past two and a half weeks, Poyser has spoken to more than 7,000 students around Indiana. He spends most of his time as executive director of Earth Charter Indiana, going from school to school teaching students and educators ways to become more sustainable. Teaching students how to farm effectively on a local scale has the potential to create a better community, he said.

MUNCIE, INDIANA
ON THIS DAY IN 1862, PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN ISSUED THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION.
Ball State students and Muncie residents joined about 2,700 communities around the world in satellite rallies showing support for a climate march demanding change Sunday in New York City. “Of all the sustainability issues, I am convinced climate change is the most important of all,” said John Vann, director of the Ball State sustainability minor and one of the rally organizers. “It isn’t going to matter if we get things right in terms of recycling or toxins in our water, if we allow the climate to go off the rails.” The climate rally at the Riverside United Methodist Church on Wheeling Avenue was organized to show support for The People’s Climate March in New York City, which aimed to attract the attention of about 120 world leaders planning to attend a U.N. Climate Summit on Tuesday. Ten Ball State students attended CLIMATE MARCH the 400,000-person NUMBERS march on Sunday. • 10 Ball State students “I really think attended the event. civilization is at a • More than 400,000 critical juncture people marched. and if we don’t do • About 2,700 satellite something about rallies were hosted. it in a 100 years • 125 heads of state will discuss climate action there may not be a Tuesday. civilization,” Vann said. “There may be pockets of humanity here or there, but we are going to have a huge crash.” The Muncie rally attracted about 60 people, including Rep. Sue Errington and Ball State faculty. They held signs to cars passing by, which honked back in response. “Indiana is one of the polluters in the country [and] I think people are realizing climate change is happening now,” Errington said. “I think we are getting more in your face about it than we were.” Kiara Goodwine, 17-year-old senior at The Indiana Academy, held her sign at the rally because she said climate is the biggest threat to civilization. “I think it’s really important to speak out about it, especially our generation because we are the ones who are going to have to make a difference in this,” Goodwine said.

RAYMOND GARCIA STAFF REPORTER ragarcia@bsu.edu
Muncie Mayor Dennis Tyler gave the key to the city to President Paul Ferguson Thursday afternoon in the L.A. Pittenger Student Center. The exchange was a part of the Ball State Campus Community Coalition Door Hanger Project. “We thought it would be nice to let them know that [Muncie] is their home now,” Tyler said. “We want them to know it’s their home.” The mayor said it was not previously planned and he wanted to let Ferguson and his wife, Grace, know that they are welcome in the community. The president and the mayor participated in the Door Hanger Project, which is an initiative to provide useful information for off-campus students and local residents. “Being responsible citizens around the community and the university is essential for us to be recognized as a student-centered and community-engaged university,” Ferguson said. He said it is important to support each other and live well together.
Dozens of students participated in the event where they went door to door talking to different residents and handing out information. Associate Vice President of Student Affairs and a leader of the coalition Thomas Gibson said information on the Indiana Lifeline Law, Social Host Law, emergency contacts and a schedule of campus events were handed out. The Lifeline Law protects underage people who have been drinking and call 911 for a medical emergency, according to indianalifeline.org. “Part of our interaction is to try to connect off-campus students to the life of the university,” Gibson said. He hopes the interaction will help offcampus students and permanent residents get to know each other. Rachel Johnson, a junior social work major, lives off campus and said it is important for her to know her neighbors. “Ball State can offer a lot of resources to residents and they can offer resources too,” Johnson said. Tyler credited former Ball State President Jo Ann Gora for establishing a great

« Being responsible citizens around the community and the university is essential for us to be recognized as a student-centered and community-engaged university. » PAUL FERGUSON, president relationship between the university and the community. “I am going to continue to lean on Ball State and its students for immersive learning projects and programs on how we can better our community and work together,” Tyler said. Gibson said there have not been many pressing issues between students and local residents. “We happen to enjoy a good relationship and this effort is to increase the good will and to ensure that good collaborative relationship continues,” he said.
“If every student in Indiana learned how to grow food, if every school would be a farm, this would be awesome,” he said. “It would evoke the great heritage of Indiana and agriculture. It would bring people together who would otherwise be arguing, and kids would be eating good, locally produced foods and be happier.” Despite the different schools that he has visited, he has not stopped at Muncie until the fair. “I have not been in a Muncie school yet,” Poyser said. “There were some kids from Muncie Central coming up and thanking me. I hope to be invited to speak, though.”
For Poyser, he can’t just ask to come speak at a school, he has to be invited. “If you just send an email to a teacher or a principal, they won’t know who you are. You’ll just end up in their spam folder,” he said. “You need someone to make contact for you on your behalf to give you that foot in the door.” Poyser also discussed climate change and the importance of not giving it an alarmist tone when teaching younger generations about the issue. “We have to be happy in the face of horror,” Poyser said. “We have to alter our brain chemistry to approach this in a happier and different way, at least for children.”

DN GRAPHIC ELIZABETH PECK
Trailing 13-3, Ball State had a chance to stop Toledo and get the ball back, possibly swinging momentum. Facing third and 12, Toledo quarterback Logan Woodside took the snap and ran a draw up the middle, gaining 14 yards and picking up a first down. The Rockets went on to score a touchdown, putting the Cardinals in a deep hole. “I thought he made a really good play with the quarterback draw,” Ball State head coach Pete Lembo said. “We had a blitz and thought it was the perfect call but we didn’t make the play.”
1 2 3
There’s 2:20 left in the first quarter, and Toledo has the ball on the right hash of the Ball State 45-yard line. Woodside is in the shotgun, his running back to his right. Three wide receivers line up on the left side, while one is on the right. Expecting a pass and wanting to provide adequate coverage, Ball State has just three defensive linemen. This proves key, because even with a blitz called, Ball State has too few players on the line of scrimmage, allowing Woodside to break through.
At the snap, linebackers Avery Bailey and Ben Ingle rush the quarterback from the left side. Bailey tries to curl around the outside and Ingle goes up the middle, but both are stuffed by Toledo linemen. Woodside quickly slides to his left and sees open running room in front of him, as his linemen have separated all the Ball State defenders to the sides.

Woodside takes off. Martez Hester has one of the best shots to take down Woodside before he can reach the first down, but is stopped by a block and Woodside runs past him.

Sprinting past the first down line, Woodside recognizes that he’s accomplished all that he needs to. He quickly falls to the ground and absorbs a hit from safety Gilbert St. Louis as the play comes to an end.
Cardinals finding identity FOOTBALL: Defense allows season-high yards in opening conference game
Personnel changes, consistency lead squad into MAC play

JAKE FOX ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR @fakejox3
After losing a talented senior class, the women’s volleyball team’s identity remained to be seen entering the season. Sitting at 6-7, Ball State has now completed the first half of its road-heavy tournament schedule. The Cardinals have won three of four, and are coming off a midweek win against instate rival IPFW, before going 2-1 at the VCU Invitational. The only loss over the weekend came against a surging VCU squad that ultimately won the tournament title. Head coach Steve Shondell said the win against IPFW was the best he’s seen his team perform this season. In recent weeks, Shondell has been moving personnel around the court, looking for the best combination. One of the biggest changes has been Alex Fuelling moving from outside hitter to libero.
DN FILE PHOTO BREANNA DAUGHERTY
Redshirt freshman outside hitter Sabrina Mangapora celebrates after a play in the match against Western Illinois on Aug. 29 at Worthen Arena. Mangapora has had 96 kills so far this season.
Shondell has been pleased with Fuelling’s play at libero, as the redshirt junior has given the Cardinals energy when needed most. “In the final three games, Alex Fuelling has played extremely well in the second half of the match,” Shondell said. The change in lineup has forced redshirt sophomore Mackenzie Kitchel and redshirt freshman Sabrina Mangapora to play a larger role on the offensive side. One of the two players led the team in kills in all four matches this week. Mangapora is enjoying contrib-
uting to her team’s success, and said it is nice to see the team’s hard work starting to pay off. The Cardinals are using a combination of youth and experience to make a formidable rotation of players. Redshirt juniors Hayley Benson and Kelly Hopkins, junior Jenna Spadafora, and sophomore Nikki Box all made significant contributions at the VCU Invitational. Ball State will begin its conference schedule on Friday, when the Cardinals travel to Kalamazoo, Mich., to take on Western Michigan. The match is scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
After nine more Toledo plays and another touchdown, trying to stop the bleeding was the main prerogative for Ball State. Especially considering Rocket running back Kareem Hunt had hit an artery and sparked a Toledo offense that produced 318 yards on the ground. On the first play of the game, Hunt carried the ball for 34 yards down the sideline, breaking tackles from safeties Martez Hester and Brian Jones, setting the tone for what would be a poor day of run defense for Ball State. Both Hester and Jones left the game with injuries. After Toledo’s second touchdown, Scott Secor responded with field goals from 49, 45 and 22 yards, but Ball State’s red zone struggles continued. Freshman Dedrick Cromartie picked off Woodside and gave the Cardinals possession in the red zone, but the offense fell flat after moving down to the Toledo eight. Toledo tacked on another touchdown before the first quarter ended, bouncing a run to the outside as Ball State’s
defenders continued to lose, contain and let Hunt slip away. With the clock winding down, Hunt slid through the middle of the Ball State defense once again, this time for 43 yards. Hunt finished the game with 142 yards on just 12 carries and a touchdown. He left the game in the third quarter and moved around the sideline on crutches. “I don’t think we fit some things right, I think we missed a lot of tackles,” Lembo said. “But being ready to play, I don’t think that was an issue.” With the teams trading punts after halftime, Woodside made sure the bleeding continued for the Ball State defense, hitting receiver Alonzo Russell deep in the end zone to extend the lead to 27-9. Ball State bounced back as quarterback Ozzie Mann found KeVonn Mabon deep for a 43yard touchdown, giving Ball State life it desperately needed. Mabon had a team-high 78 yards, aided by the Toledo defense shifting help to Jordan Williams. Williams has played sparingly this season after suffering an ankle injury in the team’s opening game
against Colgate. “There were some times we executed a little bit better and certainly having Jordan [Williams] helps,” Lembo said. “He’s one of our playmakers and we’re a better team with him in the lineup.” With Ball State threatening to close the gap, Toledo continued to pound the ball into the heart of the Ball State defense, a common theme throughout the night. It was punctuated by a Damion Jones-Moore sevenyard touchdown run up the middle, in which Jones-Moore danced his way through defenders’ arms on his way to the end zone. Ball State allowed 470 yards total, but most of them coming through the teeth of the defense. The defensive line was consistently sealed away, allowing running backs to roam free. The Cardinals added a late touchdown when Mann hit Williams to cut the lead to 3423, but Toledo would go on to run out the clock. Ball State falls to 1-3 on the season and 0-1 in the MidAmerican Conference.

CLIMATE: Activism changes due to social media, more press attention on rallies | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 With factors such as media coverage, multi-generational participation and the differences between Millennials and the Baby Boomers, the answer is multi-faceted. The Millennials are the 77 million people born between about 1981 and 1996 between the ages of 18 and 30 and the Baby Boomers consist of the 76 million born between 1946 and 1964. Michael Doyle, director of the Ball State public history program and a Baby Boomer who participated in the 1960s counter-culture, said he doesn’t think activism has significantly grown in the past 10 years. “I think the activism we are seeing right now has been going on for a long time, but it hasn’t actually been singled out by the news media for comment,” Doyle said. He said there was evidence of this after the attacks on Sept. 11, which led to the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. “Both of those were met with mass protests in this country, and yet who remembers that there were mass protests around those?” he said. “You did not find anti-war groups springing up on campuses throughout the country.” There was action in the Muncie area against the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, which coincided with protests across the nation, according to reports from The Daily News. In recent memory, Muncie residents and Ball State students have been voicing their opinions on national issues at least once a semester, ranging
« Apeople ny society that has young that they don’t look to as a
generational, from teaching courses to Millennials, he said he recognizes something he himself and others in his generation had: idealism. “This idealism is going to be the salvation of our nation because young people are an exhaustible resource and we
are blessed to have so many of them,” he said. “For them, against all odds, to look at the world, as broken as it is right now, and to see their way through it to a world that is better than that and to see they have a role in bringing that about, that’s inspired.” According to a Pew Research Center series of reports on Millennials in 2010, they are more positive than adults about America’s future, with 49 percent saying the country’s best years are ahead, and Generation X, Boomers and the Silent Generation falling in at 42, 44 and 39 percent. When the Boomers were the age of the Millennials, half of them under the age of 30 said they had “quite a lot” of confidence in America’s future, according to the reports. Doyle works with Pakistan scholars on ways to improve their higher education system. When comparing their generation of youth to American Millennials, they aren’t the same, he said. “I’m not detecting in the young people — that I have had the opportunity to come into contact with — a sense of hope and idealism generalized through the younger population in Pakistan the way I find it generalized and acted upon in this country,” he said. Young people are resources, one that should be treasured, he said. “Any society that has young people that they don’t look to as a resource with great potential and in which they foster a sense of idealism that motivates action to improve the world is doomed,” Doyle said. “So that gives me hope.”

MICHAEL DOYLE, director of the Ball State public history program and a Baby Boomer from sexual assault, Guantanamo Bay, Occupy Wall Street and Ferguson, Mo. One stark difference between the protests today and the ‘60s era is social media, he said. “So much of time people spent creating a community came from attending meetings and interacting face-toface with people for hours and arriving at consensus of what was going to happen,” Doyle said. He added the interaction people had 50 years ago has migrated to the web, but possibly at a cost because faceto-face communication and its benefits are lost at the expense of interacting with people anywhere in the world. “Is there any documented evidence that any law maker has actually changed his or her position because of a Facebook petition?” he said. “If you could point to multiple examples where that happened, that would be fantastic.” Signing online petitions, sharing or liking something is referred to slacktivism. It typically has little to no effect on social change because of its small, personal scale. However, Doyle cited an instance in 2012 where Star-
bucks abandoned a red dye for a strawberry drink due to consumer activism on the internet. Ariana Brown, alumna and former president of Students for Creative Social Activism, said social media has benefited activism. “With the growth of social media it’s easier to communicate what’s going on,” said Brown, who spent yesterday at a satellite event for the People’s Climate March in Austin, Texas. “You can hop on Facebook and see what’s happening in Quebec, Palestine. It’s just easier to get the information out there.” It’s not all youth voicing their opinions online or in the streets, Doyle said. “To say the Baby Boomers and the Millennials are related is trite because it’s the Baby Boomers’ children who occupy this category, and in some cases grandchildren,” he said. “So there is some direct continuity in the passage of values from one generation to the next.” Erica Walsh, a senior economic major and president of the College Democrats of Indiana, said she is often the youngest person when she attends political- or issue-
