Other medical colleges not provoking protests By Annie Harrison Senior Reporter

Unlike Central Michigan University, faculty at Western Michigan University and Oakland University have not publicly opposed their new medical schools. According to public relations departments at both universities, faculty have not voiced opposition because

the medical schools are not being financed by funds from existing academic programs. CMU Director of Public Relations Steve Smith said no funds from existing programs are being used for the CMU College of Medicine either. Bob Miller, associate vice president for community outreach at WMU, said there has been no official opposi-

tion to their school of medicine by university faculty and staff. He said the response has been positive because people believe the school of medicine will enhance university prestige and the quality of student education. “The vast majority of people have been very supportive,” he said. As Central Michigan Life reported Wednesday, it is still

undecided if CMED faculty will be included in the Faculty Association. The department of journalism, as reported Oct. 28, voted unanimously to oppose CMED if revenue from existing academic programs is being used to finance it. On Tuesday the Academic Senate took a vote to halt further action to CMED. Miller said the faculty has

not been opposed to WMU’s school of medicine because it will be a private school affiliated with the public university. He said it will be funded privately, so it will not take funding and resources away from the public university. Miller said their school of medicine has “applicant school” status at stage one with Liason Committee on

Medical Education and has not had its site visit yet. WMU will have the formal application submitted by April 2012 and he anticipates a LCME visit after that. He said WMU hopes to receive preliminary accreditation in 2012 so they can have student recruitment in 2013 and begin classes in 2014.

Central Michigan University and the Faculty Association will begin bargaining today, less than a week after a fact-finding report was released detailing each issue between the groups. It is the first time the two sides will meet since Sept. 30. Fact-finder Barry Goldman’s non-binding set of findings came Tuesday in an attempt to break an impasse in the four-month-old contract talks, in which mediation has already failed. FA President Laura Frey declined comment on the findings. Goldman sided with the university’s proposals on economic issues such as salary and benefits, and with the FA on retirement and promotion increases. The university proposed a pay freeze for this year with small increases for the next two years. Goldman dismissed the

cer Start Smart program, but basketball is his favorite sport, she said. When he grows up, Caleb said he wants to be a basketball player. “I really like dribbling,” he said. metro@cm-life.com

Writer’s reading packs Baber Room By Ben Harris Senior Reporter

Visiting fiction writer Kelcey Parker insisted although her work may be poetic, she does not write poetry. About 80 people attended Parker’s reading from 8 to 9 p.m. Thursday in the Charles V. Park Library’s Baber Room. Parker read “What my Lips have Kissed and Where, and Why” and “Mermaids” from her new collection of stories “For Sale By Owner,” winner of the 2011 Next Generation Indie Award in Short Fiction. Parker will release a novella

in 2013. After the reading, Parker took questions from the audience. “I was so excited. I bought her book and loaned a friend money to buy a book,” said Mount Pleasant senior Lee Szelag. “It was a wonderfully poetic form of fiction.” Parker is the director of the creative writing program at Indiana University South Bend. She said it was nice to hear from students other than her own and it was good for students to get a fresh perspective. “My students don’t ask me questions about things like

how I became a writer, and so I sometimes forget that students have those questions,” Parker said. “I enjoy talking about those kinds of things with students.” Darrin Doyle, associate professor of English language and literature, orchestrated the event and said he was happy with the turnout. “I was happy with it. You never know for sure how many people will come, but this was a success,” Doyle said. “I look for someone with a unique voice and style and she has it.” A WRITER | 2

CMU, FA go back to bargaining today

Children play, learn basics of basketball

The Start Smart basketball program aims to teach kids more than just how to dribble a ball. “They’re still working on their coordination at this age, but it’s all about them having fun,” said Ashlii Barlow, coach of Start Smart basketball. “That’s our main thing.” Barlow began working with the program last summer, but it has been going on for at least four or five years, she said. The program will be held from 6 to 6:50 p.m. and again from 7 to 7:50 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays for the next six weeks at Fancher Elementary, 801 S. Kinney Ave. The program familiarizes children ages 3 to 5 with the fundamental skills needed to be successful in the sport. Other Start Smart programs offered throughout the year include soccer, flag football, tennis and golf.

effective in January 2012 and he will receive an annual salary of $200,000. “It is my privilege to be able to return to CMU and have the opportunity to work with members of the university community in achieving strategic enrollment goals while enhancing the student experience,” Johnson said in a press release. “As the societal landscape changes, it is critical for colleges and universities to have a strategy to guide their efforts.” Johnson was hired after a national search began last spring. He was one of two finalists who toured this semester, the other being Cherise Peters, former associate vice president for enrollment services and registrar at Georgia State University. The hiring decision was made by Ross.

FA’s contention that CMU had $228 million in unrestricted funds at the time that could be used to fund more generous raises. “With the recommendations of the independent, third-party fact-finder now in hand, we look forward to moving quickly toward reaching an agreement,” Director of Public Relations Steve Smith said Tuesday. Chris Benison, president of the Students for Faculty registered student organization, said he believes Goldman gave his best advice to both parties involved in the contract negotiation. “My general impression is that Mr. Goldman did make an attempt to be as fair and impartial as possible given the circumstances,” the Mount Pleasant senior said Tuesday.

CHSBS has highest number of programs ranked in report By Hailee Sattavara Staff Reporter

Editors Note: This is the third story in a series about Academic Prioritization. The College of Humanities and Social and Behavioral Science will see some changes to its programs in the future because of the preliminary Academic Prioritization released last week. CHSBS had a total of 97 programs ranked in the report — the most of any college.

Out of these, six programs were placed in Category 1, mainly in the psychology and political science departments. The categories went from 1 to 5, with 1 meriting extra support and 5 meriting potential cuts of deletion. Those at the top have been working hard and deserve it, said Professor of History Eric Johnson, who helped complete the ranking form. While English language and literature was ranked in Category 2, the three concentrations, children’s literature,

creative writing and world literature were ranked Category 5. CHSBS Dean Pamela Gates said the undergraduate English concentrations will be reassigned as certificates. “The main reason behind that is related to the fact that concentrations are not reflected on a student’s transcript, whereas a certificate in creative writing will appear on the transcript,” Gates said in an email. Jeffrey Bean, professor of English language and litera-

ture, said the creative writing concentration is being eliminated, but the gears were already in motion to reconstruct the English major. Instead of concentrations there will be tracks. “I think the prioritization results could be misleading, as they make it appear that creative writing is being ‘phased out,’” Bean said in an email. Caitlin Hall, a Mount Pleasant senior majoring in English language and literature, said she thinks the ranking will upset people who wanted to con-

centrate in a certain subject. Elk Rapids senior John Priest said since he became a creative writing major, more students have joined every year. “If it’s growing so much, then why would they de-prioritize the program?” Priest said. Priest said he enjoys having creative writing workshops mixed in with his literature classes, but eventually there are no more workshop classes to take. “I’m not taking a workshop class next semester because they filled up so quickly,” Priest

said. However, Bean said the move could strengthen the expanding creative writing community at Central Michigan University, and may allow English majors to have more flexibility for taking workshops. “Rest assured that all of the current creative writing classes will still be offered for years to come and, in fact, we expect enrollment and interest in our courses to continue to grow,” Bean said.

Investigative reporter Ralph Frammolino points at a slide picturing notes from Italian antique looters used during his investigation of the origin of the Aphrodite statue, Thursday evening in the Bovee University Center Auditorium. More than 120 people attended the presentation to hear Frammolino speak on the ethics of antiquities and ownership rights.

missing masterpieces Pulitzer Prize finalist discusses stolen artwork, antiquities By Jamie Favazza | Staff Reporter

A scandal of epic proportions compared to steroids in baseball was recounted Thursday night. Ralph Frammolino, a former investigative reporter for the Los Angeles Times, 2006 Pulitzer Prize finalist and current media consultant, spoke to an audience of more than 120 at the Bovee University Center Auditorium about several infamous art thefts. The national attention he received in 2006 came from a series of reports on the J. Paul Getty Museum he and co-writer Jason Felch wrote about. Frammolino said J. Paul Getty was a collector of world art. When he died, Getty gave more than $700 million to the museum. “Overnight, it became the world’s richest art institution,” he said. The Getty became known for the at least 47 looted objects, including an Italian sculpture of Aphrodite. Frammolino said the attention the Getty received for its looted art was sparked by his coverage in the L.A. Times. Frammolinos’ book “Chas-

ing Aphrodite: The Hunt for Looted Antiquities at the World’s Richest Museum,” is about looted antiquities displayed in museums. Frammolino said it’s estimated that more than $1 billion of returns have been A BOOK | 8

Eight acres of the Mount Pleasant Center property have been sold to the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. The land was purchased for $1 from the city, said Saginaw Chippewa Tribal council member Charmaine Benz. The Mount Pleasant Center closed in 2009 and the property formerly held the Mount Pleasant Indian Industrial Boarding School, which operated from 1893 to 1934. The tribal council officially sanctioned the area on Wednesday. Benz said basic human rights were denied during the time of boarding schools. According to school records, five children died during its operation, said Ziibiwing Center Director Shannon Martin.

“The book is a really good read. It’s quite engaging and the re-patronization of cultural objects is very important.” Anne Gochenour, University Art Gallery director

FUTURE PLANS “(The tribe) wants to list the property on the National Register of Historic Places,” said Sarah Surface-Evans, a sociology, anthropology and social work adjunct at Central Michigan University. “By becoming a part of that, it protects the property from development.” Surface-Evans is a postdoctoral fellow of archaeology brought on to teach a special topics course and she was contacted by the tribe two years ago about the project.

Tatanka Means to speak on campus Tuesday By David Oltean Senior Reporter

Investigative reporter Ralph Frammolino signs a book after speaking Thursday evening at the Bovee University Center auditorium. Frammolino co-wrote the book “Chasing Aphrodite: The Hunt for Looted Antiquities at the World’s Richest Museum”. The book highlights Frammolino’s investigation of the scandal behind the Aphrodite statue.

However, various cross references revealed this number was incorrect; more than 160 deaths have been estimated by way of death certificates, historical records, obituaries and newspaper articles, Martin said. “We lost a lot and we’re trying to gain it back so we can heal and recover,” Benz said. The purchase was to ensure the graves on the property would not be disturbed.

Tatanka Means will add Native American Heritage Month keynote speaker to a resume that already includes acting, comedy, speaking and boxing. Means will speak at 7 p.m. Tuesday in Warriner Hall’s Plachta Auditorium for a free event sponsored by Central Michigan University and the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. Means is an actor, comedian, motivational speaker and activist from Arizona, and represents the Oglala Lakota, Omaha and Navajo nations. Means is also a former boxer and holds six championship titles. He has acting roles in multiple TV series including “In Plain Sight,” “Freedom Riders” and “Scoundrels.” Many of his roles are American Indian characters such as the Ogala Lakota Chief Crazy Horse in TNT’s TV series “Into the West.”

Colleen Green, director of Native American programs at CMU, said she is excited to bring in a young speaker who could identify with a student audience. “We wanted to bring Tatanka Means in because he is a young actor and a lot of our college community is younger students,” Green said. “We thought that he would be able to interact with them moreso than an older speaker talking about the same issues.” Green said she expects Means will speak about his multiple careers as well as his American Indian heritage, incorporating his comedic experience throughout. “We’ve asked to have him speak about his history, his culture and the comedy of being Native American as well,” Green said.

New type of MRI more comfortable for patients with claustrophobia Company offers open-feeling machine By Kirsten Kearse Staff Reporter

A new type of MRI is now available in Mount Pleasant meant to reduce stress in patients by offering a more comfortable setting. Open MRI Mount Pleasant, 211 S. Crapo St., has a new high-definition, open MRI that was unveiled Tuesday. The MRI is more comfortable, convenient, and less costly, said Pam Nordbeck,

lead MRI technician. “It will better serve the community and for people who are claustrophobic,” Nordbeck said. The MRI has four feet of open space around all sides, so it is less claustrophobic. It is also filled with liquid helium so the charge never goes away when it’s put in the machine, said Dr. Jon Buiteweg, who works at Open MRI. “A certain percentage of the population is claustrophobic, so when you put them in that tube, they get really upset and nervous.” This type of MRI is better at reducing stress compared to the tubular MRI, Nordbeck said.

The MRI is in an outpatient setting, so they do not have the feeling of being in a hospital, she said. There is an open MRI in Midland, however, the next closest is in Traverse City, Buiteweg said. “We had planned on putting an MRI here and talked about it for several years,” he said. Buiteweg attended a conference in January, where images from a 1.2 tesla open MRI were shown. The open MRI started construction in June and finished about two weeks ago. Before the open MRI, image quality was not very good because they did not have a

high enough magnetic field strength, Buiteweg said. He said the new MRI greatly improves its quality. To get the machine, there is a lot of work involved, he said. Open MRI partnered with MidMichigan Health so permission could be given for an open MRI in Mount Pleasant, he said. A certificate of need was also obtained. Buiteweg said they needed to prove that the machine was warranted by submitting numbers of studies and surveys to the government. “It’s pretty tightly controlled,” he said. metro@cm-life.com

Importance of mission statements Tuesday, I went to the Academic Senate meeting — not on assignment, for fun. Sue me, I can be a nerd. I was promised that Tuesday’s meeting offered big things to see, but when the first half of the meeting was spent with senior officers describing a new vision statement, I was fully prepared to walk out. See, the one thing that was not mentioned during their little presentation, bless their hearts, despite all those buzzwords, was that we already have a mission statement, one that was designed by the same high-paid people, some of whom earn well over $50 an hour, less than a year ago. In fact, at the December 2010 board of trustees meeting, much praise was given to University President George Ross for developing a new mission statement. The University’s mission statement: “At Central Michigan University, we are a community committed to the pursuit of knowledge, wisdom, discovery and creativity. We provide student-centered education and foster personal and intellectual growth to prepare students for productive careers, meaningful lives and responsible citizenship in a global society.” How does this help my education? What do mission statements or equally ridiculous vision statements enable these people to do? I sincerely doubt they’ve ever thought of an initiative or a plan and then reconsidered, saying, “Oh, well, this runs counter to our mission statement.” It’s a silly waste of time, developing these things that are certainly not deserving of any pride. Hell, we already have a vision statement as well. This one was approved in 2005. The CMU vision statement: “CMU will be a nationally prominent university known for integrity, academic excellence, research and creative activity and public service.” Have you ever heard of either the mission statement or the vision statement? Do either of them have an impact on your campus life? They certainly haven’t had an impact on mine, and these statements are arguably something the university regularly ignores. What is the purpose of these things? Now do they have expiration dates? Are they dairy products? Why do we need to develop a new one every six years? It’s well above my pay grade to say, but I sincerely think developing and redeveloping these is absolutely ridiculous. It’s a waste of time, not to mention money.

EDITORIAL | Sparing over control reveals true divide

Ideological Conflict

entral Michigan University and the Faculty Association are not fighting about money anymore; they are fighting for the ideological future of the institution.

While arguments between the two sides have mostly focused on contract negotiations the story took another turn during Tuesday’s Academic Senate meeting where A-Senate members, many of them faculty members, took a vote halting further action on the College of Medicine. The decision came nearly four hours after media received copies of the fact-finding report which detailed the decision favoring CMU on salaries and benefits, but favoring the FA on retirement and promotion increments. These moves were not incidental, but do show a change in how the FA is looking at the current bargaining push. It’s clear CMU wants CMED to be just the forefront of a new campus, where the FA wants that money to go to support, strengthen and add faculty to existing programs. While two months ago the two sides were arguing about who was or was not coming to the bargaining table, Tuesday they argued about the viability of CMED because, among other reasons, the A-Senate claims CMU is using

funding from the general budget to create the college. Reading through Barry Goldman’s fact-finding report makes it obvious that the particular amounts of money being fought over were not as important as the fight itself to the two parties. Part of the health benefits the parties could not come to an agreement over was the university’s monthly contribution to employees’ dental plans. The difference between the FA and university proposals for monthly contributions range from $2.36 to $15, never more. Either the argument has transcended beyond money, or these are the two pettiest groups of people ever. For the most part, Goldman’s recommendations are fairly equitable to both parties. The only two sections that could be called into question — and certainly will be by the FA — are the recommendations on salaries and benefits. In his recommendation on the salary issue, Goldman said CMU should not “eat its seed corn” by digging into the university’s reported $228 million in unrestricted

net assets to pay for salary raises, suggesting the university is saving this money to compensate for the worsening Michigan economy. They are using this money less like a stockpile of seed corn and more like tonight’s filet mignon dinner, however, for building and expansion. Second, he called the university’s health benefit plan “eminently fair” because it was the same plan agreed upon by the other bargaining units on campus. This assumes that the other bargaining units — none of which have the bargaining sway of the FA — wanted this benefit package or thought it was a good deal, rather than taking it as part of a compromise for other concessions in their contracts. This non-binding report is by no means a conclusion to the contract battle between the university and the FA, which is likely to only be fueled further by this report. The FA will continue to argue for better salary and benefit packages, and they should. This editorial board is not saying at this time the packages offered by the university and recommended by Goldman are not fair, only that the reasons offered by Goldman lacked sufficient logic and compelling reasoning for the FA to settle.

Staying informed during trying times

Andrew Dooley Student Life Editor Good afternoon. I have taken a break from sobbing into my DASH silk robe to update you on the world at large. These are “important” stories that have taken place since the international tragedy that was the announcement of Kim Kardashian’s and Kris Humphries divorce on Monday.

Forever divided I came here for a reason. In no way was I attracted to the desolate town of Mount Pleasant, dense campus or mediocre athletics. Despite its golden reputation of activities that take place Thursday through Saturday, I knew this was the place for me. Central Michigan University was united, and not just to students that ran back and forth on a field. Freshman year brought Leadership Safari, where I personally witnessed how close of a relationship students had with not only each other, but also faculty. At that point in time I didn’t even know there was a separation of faculty and administration. I was an innocent, simple boy looking for change. A semester load of “weeding out” classes meant long hours and a firstname basis with each of my professors. They all made it clear they were there for me, to help guide, shape and instill pride. I bought it. Two years later, the terms “faculty” and “administration” are quite obviously separate. Within these titles are teachers, assistants and a president that I once knew to be together. Within days, CMU instantly became nationally known for its inabilities. The school I had once chosen for its unity had valiantly ripped itself apart once, showing that personal gain will always crush all else. It’s hard to imagine that people could want more in this time of economic turmoil. I grew up believing I could do what I wanted no matter the pay. I grew up believing the little guy meant more because they were in it for the right reasons. Money only ruined things, most commonly people. To me, CMU was the little guy. But even the little guy can grow. The same professors that put their hearts into helping me were now the same ones picketing across campus on my first day of class. The same president that ensured university integrity now sees me as something lower than an adult. Business is business and I understand that, but that’s the very issue here. Is there really a dollar sign attached to wanting to teach? Is there really a price cap on supporting worthy professors? Looking back on an institute of learning, I can’t help but recognize the one lesson I have learned: Respect is dangerous because respect will force you to pick sides. There are many feasible explanations for this university’s current position, but I would like to bring it back to square one. We’re all here for a reason and I damn well hope it’s not for money. This is my first and last column. I’m no writer, but I do have an opinion. What I am is a man who once was a boy in this very same place. As I depart, prematurely, from this establishment all that is left is my opinion and a bad taste for the little guy turned big. Divided we are and together we are lost.

Soccer team faces WMU in MAC Tournament semifinals Ryan Zuke Staff Reporter

The Central Michigan women’s soccer team’s quest for a third consecutive Mid-American Conference Tournament title requires a win against Western Michigan. The two teams will square off at

2:05 p.m. today in Toledo, Ohio with the winner advancing to the MAC championship game. CMU’s only conference loss came against the Broncos on Oct. 14, despite controlling much of the play. “I thought we exploited them several ways in the first encounter,” said head coach Neil Stafford. The team was able to create numerous opportunities to score, including two one-on-ones with the goalkeeper, but could not find the back of the net.

The Chippewas look to crack WMU goalkeeper Michelle Watson after she shut them out in the first meeting. “It really comes down to us finishing our chances and executing as much as we can,” Stafford said. Junior Brittney Pavlica scored 32:33 into the game as the Broncos held on to win 1-0. WMU comes off of a 1-0 victory over Ball State in the MAC Tournament quarterfinals. Senior Stephanie Skowneski and

junior Anina Cicerone lead the Broncos offense. Both have caused havoc on opposing defenses this season. Skowneski is a candidate for the MAC Offensive Player of the Year and is WMU’s all-time leading goal scorer with 24. “I think we have defenders that can cope with quality players, which those two are,” Stafford said. “I am looking forward to seeing those battles all over the field because that is

Golden Goalies Turner, Labrecque solidify soccer team’s netminders By Brandon Champion | Staff Reporter

he Central Michigan women’s soccer team is in the middle of the biggest game of its season thus far against Toledo. Both teams have had opportunities to score, but remain scoreless. Then, in the 76th minute, the Chippewas score the first goal. With just minutes remaining, the Rockets push their entire team forward, desperately trying to tie.

Now, with a minute remaining, a Toledo forward fires a shot on net, but junior goalkeeper Stefanie Turner dives to her right to make the save, preserving the win for CMU 1-0 on Oct. 21. The shutout is Turner’s third of the season. “Stefanie does a great job organizing,” said head coach Neil Stafford. “She’s rock solid back there, full credit to her and the way she has trained.” On Oct. 23, the Chippewas were locked in another big game against Ball State, a must-win to keep their hopes for a third-straight Mid-American Conference title alive. Just minutes in, a Cardinal midfielder took the ball behind the CMU defense, but redshirt freshman goalkeeper Grace Labrecque charged out of the net and made a save, denying Ball State of a goal. Later, in the 74th minute, CMU scored, eventually winning 1-0. It was her fourth shutout of the year. Regardless of who is in the net, games like these have become normal for the soccer team as Turner and Labrecque have combined to hold teams scoreless 11 times this season. “We just flip coins when we try and decide who to start,” Stafford jokingly said at practice last week. “But at the end of the day, we are very confident in both of our goalkeepers. Sometimes it’s just Grace’s turn to start.” Turner has started 16 games this season and played the majority of the minutes, 1226:52 to be exact. Labrecque has started five games and played in 11, totaling 646:26 minutes. Turner and Labrecque both said it takes a

Chippewas aim for first win streak of season against Kent State tonight

BASKETBALL

The Central Michigan men’s basketball team took care of business in its first exhibition game with a 93-36 win against Marygrove College at Mcguirk Arena. Junior college transfer Olivier Mbaigoto made Ernie Zeigler his debut in front of 1,212 fans on Wednesday, scoring 14 points and hauling down three rebounds. Mbaigoto knocked down a jumper on the first possession and the Chippewas didn’t look back. They raced out to a 22-2 lead and the game wasn’t any closer throughout. “We were really locked in, particularly the first ten guys that played,” said head coach Ernie Zeigler said. “They were locked in defensively. It got us out in transition; It got us dialed in.” CMU outscored Marygrove 20-0 on fast break points.

certain type of person to do it. “Goalies are weird,” Turner said. “You purposely throw yourself at the ground repeatedly and get in front of balls. You have to have that fearless mentality.” Growing up in Livonia, Turner played for Livonia United, a club team since she was six years old. She became a first-team all-state her senior year at Livonia Churchill High School. She then split time with CMU’s all-time wins leader Shay Mannino last season. “What I picked up from Shay was her consistency,” Turner said. “ She’s always so focused on the task at hand and always on top of everything by taking it one play at a time. That’s something I have tried to replicate and pass on to Grace.” Labrecque, since the age of 10, played for TKO, a club team out of Kalamazoo. She then went on to earn all-state honors three times before graduating from Lakeview High School. She suffered an injury and was redshirted last season, something that has helped her in the long run. “Obviously playing in games is a lot better, but it was good because I got to play in practice to get a feel for it, “she said. “ I also focused a lot on

A Central Michigan victory against Kent State today would mark the first win streak of the season for the 3-6 football team. The Chippewas followed their first two victories of the season with two three-loss streaks, setting up an ugly pattern coming off a win over Akron with three games remaining on schedule. The Chippewas look to make it three-straight wins against the Golden Flashes Friday at 8 p.m. in Kent, Ohio. “Our goal is to win the last three of these games, but we can’t do that until we go out and get a win this Friday,” said quarterback Ryan Radcliff. “It would be nice to finish off this road trip with a ‘W’.” In the junior’s last three starts, he has completed 64 percent of his passes for 978 yards. He’s found the end zone seven times in those games and his two interceptions came in last-ditch throws as time expired. “(Radcliff) didn’t play very well at Michigan State and he didn’t play well in the second half against North Carolina State,” said head coach Dan Enos. “Other than that, we think he’s played very solid. The big thing is if Ryan can play solid and not turn the ball over, we’ll have a chance to win.” Enos said the offensive line has given Radcliff more time in the pocket in recent

Senior Rocky Weaver will be out for the remainder of the season with a shoulder injury and Jake Olson will be sidelined this week with an upper body injury. “It’s extremely important (to protect Radcliff) and we take it personally,” said left guard Mike Repovz. “We don’t want him to get hit and we know he’ll be very good if he’s got time.” CMU’s run game will be as unpredictable as it has been all season, with five backs on the depth chart with the

ability to produce a big game. Senior Paris Cotton’s status is questionable after suffering a foot injury against Eastern Michigan that hobbled him against Ball State and held him out against the Zips. “Paris has improved and he’ll probably play,” Enos said. “Kent State may be the best defense in our league that I’ve seen thus far on film and it’s going to be a challenge for our offensive guys. Freshman Anthony Garland is coming off a 141-yard effort last weekend and sophomore Zurlon Tipton added 52 yards. Four different backs have recorded team-best stats on the ground this season, backing Enos’ statement that he plans to give the ball to the “hot hand” each week. Defensively, the Chippewas need to shut down a Golden Flashes offense ranked last in total offense and pass efficiency and 12th in both pass and rush offense in the MAC. Enos said senior Armond Staten has really stepped up in his return to the team and will likely earn his spot as a starting linebacker Friday. “Armond’s showing maturity, he’s shown maturity, shown leadership and he’s worked hard,” Enos said. “He’s the Armond we all know and he’s been a real positive the past few weeks.” Senior Mike Petrucci is still listed as questionable for Friday’s game, though Enos said he will be back on the field next week if he can’t Saturday. Still without Petrucci, the front seven will have their work cut out for them against a KSU offensive line and run game that impressed Enos. “They have big backs on offense and we really like their offensive line — big and physical,” he said. “They’re playing very well right now and our defense is going to have to play very well.” sports@cm-life.com

Newcomers make impact in men’s basketball exhibition By John Manzo Sports Editor

The Central Michigan men’s basketball team went 10-21 last season. It wasn’t the most successful season in program history, but that’s the past. Four newcomers bring a whole new aspect to the program. Freshmen Austin Keel, Austin McBroom and Jorddan Myrick and junior college transfer Olivier Mbaigoto made an impact in Wednesday’s 93-36 exhibition win against Marygrove at McGuirk Arena. “Olivier is very versatile,” said head coach Ernie Zei-

gler. “He can score inside and out. He can score along that baseline. He’s going to give us that possibility for another double-digit scorer without question.” Keel scored a game-high 16 points, and Mbaigoto did exactly what Zeigler said. He scored his first career Division I basket 17 seconds into the game on a jumper from the baseline. He followed that with a layup and another jumper that extended the Chippewas lead to 10-2. He finished with 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting. Mbaigoto started the game along with Derek Jackson, Trey Zeigler, Andre Coimbra and McBroom.

Freshman guard Austin McBroom battles against Marygrove’s Shaun Covington during Wednesday’s exhibition game against the Mustangs at McGuirk Arena. McBroom went 3-3 for 3 point shots and tallied 10 total points in his first game as a Chippewa.

Two newcomers were already inserted into the starting lineup. McBroom, a point guard, is in the midst of what might be the most intense position battle on the team. He competes with John Morris, who started six games at point guard last season, and Myrick for the starting job. “I think all three had their moments,” Ernie said. “It’s a great problem to have. Last

year, we didn’t have one.” McBroom went 3-for-3 from the field, all from 3-point range, scoring 10 points. Morris relieved him and Myrick subbed in for Morris. “McBroom is an excellent shooter and has the ability to make plays as well,” Ernie said. “He didn’t probably show that as much tonight as he will have the opportunities to do so.” Myrick scored two points, both on free throws. He turned

the ball over four times, but it doesn’t mean he is out of the running for the team’s starting point guard. Ernie has yet to decide and believes Myrick is a jet-quick, tough point guard. Keel aims to provide depth at the shooting guard position. He proved he can shoot and isn’t afraid to do so. He took a game-high 14 shots, making six. “It was nice to get out there and play against somebody else tonight. It’s pretty much

the same thing, but everyone is bigger, faster and stronger,” Keel said comparing the differences between high school and college basketball. “I’m just looking forward to the next game to strive toward success.” All four will have another chance along with the rest of the Chippewas at 7 p.m. Saturday against Northern Michigan at McGuirk Arena in their final exhibition of the season.

Football offensive lineman Rockey Weaver out for season By Justin Hicks Senior Reporter

The longest active starting streak has come to an end for the Central Michigan football team. Offensive lineman Rocky Weaver injured his shoulder in his 35th consecutive start and will be out for the rest of his senior season. “Rocky is going to need surgery and will be out for the season,” said head coach

Dan Enos. “It’s devastating for Rocky. He’s given so much to this football program and we appreciate all that he’s done.” The Battle Creek native joined the program as a tight end, catching eight passes for 65 yards and a touchdown in his freshman season before making the jump to right tackle. This season, Weaver started at right guard for seven games before sliding over to right tackle to fill in for the injured

Freshman point guard Austin McBroom started the game, going 3-for-3 from three-point range, scoring 10 points and swiping two steals. McBroom and Mbaigoto were among five Chippewas who scored in double figures. Freshman Austin Keel scored a game-high 16 points. Sophomore Trey Zeigler, who led the team in scoring last year, dished out seven assists. “Our chemistry is so good right now,” Trey said. “We just share the ball, me personally I’m not afraid to give the ball to anyone on my team. I trust everybody when we’re open and that led to a lot of easy buckets for us.” CMU had 22 total assists. Last season the Chippewas only averaged 8.7 assists a game. “It’s contagious,” Ernie said on passing. “I thought we passed up a couple shots. Overall these guys like each other. Our chemistry is so much better than last year’s, it’s been scary.” Defensively, CMU held Marygrove to 25-percent shooting from the field, switching between a zone and man-to-man defensive schemes. The Chippewas won 77-38 last year against Marygrove. CMU finished that season 10-21.

school. If I couldn’t perform on the field, I needed to perform in the classroom.” Labrecque has been able to showcase herself on the field this season and her performance has given the Chippewas what might be one of the best goaltending duos in the country. Turner is 11-2-2 on the season and ranks 11th in the country in goals against average. She is second in the MAC in the same category, only behind Labrecque, who has allowed just one goal all season. Labrecque has a 4-0-1 record this season. Turner and Labrecque

junior Jake Olson. “Rocky is a senior, so you know he’s bringing that wisdom and leadership that you can only get from the guys who have been around and in the system for a while,” said quarterback Ryan Radcliff. “He’s still out there helping the young guys and keeping the morale up.” Weaver’s leadership has impacted redshirt freshmen Andy Phillips and Kevin Henry, who have stepped up to fill

the hole left by him and Olson, as well as the rest of the offensive line. “He’s still on the sidelines and at practice coaching us up after our reps and telling us what we need to work on,” said left guard Mike Repovz. “Rocky was one of our best offensive linemen and we all wish he was out there with us.” Olson will be sidelined for the third consecutive game Friday after suffering an upper body injury against East-

ern Michigan. Phillips jumped into the starting lineup against Ball State and Akron and Henry took over at right guard for the injured Weaver last week. “Those guys work hard and they continue to get better,” Enos said. “They have great attitudes and the older guys — Darren Keyton, Eric Fisher, Mike Repovz — are really helping them.” As an offense, CMU will be challenged tonight going up against a Kent State defense

are also both in the top three in the MAC in save percentage. The duo has allowed just seven goals all season, while anchoring the backline of a 15-2-3 team. Despite the success, both know that there is still a lot of work to be done and that statistics don’t mean much without a thirdstraight MAC title and a trip to the NCAA Tournament. “We both bring our ‘A games’ all the time because we have to be sharp as often as we can,” Turner said. “We talk things through when mistakes happen and figure out a solution. It’s important that we help each other day-in and dayout and hold each other accountable.” This weekend the Chippewas face rival Western

Michigan in the MAC Tournament semifinals in Toledo, Ohio. The Broncos handed CMU its only loss in the MAC regular season on Oct. 14. Stafford has yet to inform the team who will start in goal, but according to Turner and Labrecque, that doesn’t really matter.

“We have been making sure our bodies are OK,” Labrecque said. “Regardless of who is starting, we both need to be ready both mentally and physically because we don’t know when we will be needed.” The Chippewas have spent all week preparing for their rivals from Kalamazoo.

They have had extra film study and have been focusing on mistakes they made in the first meeting. “We have gone over our mistakes,” Turner said. “As well as Western’s tendencies and the things we need to do to control the game.”

“The book is a really good read,” Gochenour said. “It’s quite engaging and the re-patronization of cultural objects is very important.” Mary Redford, a Grand Rapids junior, said she had not heard of Frammolino before the event but attended because she has an interest in art history. “I’m an art history minor,” Redford said. “Seeing something that old ... it’s unreal.” studentlife@cm-life.com
