Officers with the Central Michigan University Police Department are using audiovisual simulations to train their skills.

In January, CMUPD installed the MILO Range 180 Theater System, which uses interactive videos to train officers in “lifelike” situations, said Lt. Cameron Wassman.

The simulator cost $90,000 and comes with hundreds of pre-loaded scenarios, Wassman said. Simulations range from target practice and traffic stops to active shooter scenarios.

CMUPD can also record simulations for future use.

“This system helps officers make good decisions — which is one of the biggest parts of our job,” Wassman said. “We can have our officers watch training videos or send them to classrooms but it’s very rare that officers have the ability to have something that’s (similar to) real life.”

Some of the scenarios will change depending on an officer’s decisions.

In a demonstration on April 10, Wassman showed some of the possible outcomes of dealing with a suspect wielding a knife. In another exercise, he navigated a dark house with a simulated flashlight.

“We never know what we’re going to be encountering,” Sgt. Trent Case said. “The tools that I have on me and the tools I use verbally can de-escalate situations and solve problems.”

Case added that the system “brings realistic feelings” to training.

“Even though it’s video-based and prerecorded — what I do will have an effect on the outcome,” he said.

Wassman said the situations feel real and so does the equipment. Officers use modified firearms equipped with infrared lasers and compressed gas canisters to mimic the recoil of a real handgun.

CMUPD is also working to collaborate with area law enforcement to utilize the training, Wassman said. While the training simulator deals with serious situations, Wassman added that it’s also enjoyable.

“It’s fun,” he said. “The realism is not only practical, it’s fun too.”

Program Board to bring Joe Jonas, big names to campus

By Kara Dobulis Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

When Alee’a Ulsh-Cherry realized she wanted to make an impact at Central Michigan University, she went to Program Board.

Last year, the Canton senior joined the student-run organization that facilitates on-campus concerts and events. As director of public relations, Ulsh-Cherry has a big role in deciding which acts to book for performances.

For the past year, Program Board members have been dedicated to planning the April 21 DNCE concert.

Since its creation, Program Board has brought several well-known artists to CMU’s campus.

Ranging from the upcoming DNCE concert to Ozzy Osbourne in 1983 to Ke$ha in 2011, Program Board works to host various low-cost events.

“It’s a great feeling to see us accomplish things week after week due to our dedication behind the scenes,” Ulsh-Cherry said.

Ulsh-Cherry helped promote the Back to School Comedy Jam in September. Former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Jay Pharoah, Michael Blackson and D.C. Young Fly, both of “Nick Cannon Presents: Wild ‘n Out,” performed at the event.

She said seeing hundreds of students packed inside the McGuirk Arena was an “adrenaline rush.”

“It’s honestly an indescribable feeling when you see an event turn out to be successful,” she said. “When events that we don’t expect to see high numbers end up having great attendance, it makes the feeling 10 times better.

“It’s nice to see a diverse set of students take time out of their day to come out and enjoy entertainment we booked.”

The Back to School Comedy Jam was free for students, and cost the organization 20 percent of their annual budget.

Program Board usually receives $295,000 per year but was allocated an additional $30,000 from the Campus Program Fund this year, said Damon Brown, the director of Program Board.

He said the additional funds allowed them to host CMU’s “the biggest comedy show” in the past decade.

“That (additional) money was used for the fall comedy show, which made it a free show for students,” Brown said. “We turned that money around and gave it right back to the students in terms of a free show.”

The majority of the board’s budget goes toward inviting speakers, musicians and comedians to campus. Program Board also organizes smaller events such as Pinterest parties and movie showings.

PROGRAM BOARD’S CLAIM TO FAME This year, Program Board is bringing DNCE to campus.

Formed by Joe Jonas, the dance-pop band’s debut single “Cake By the Ocean” reached No. 9 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” and No. 1 on Billboard’s “Adult Top 40.”

Concert tickets cost $16 for upper bowl, $22 for lower bowl and $27 for floor seats.

Brown said Program Board is allocating a large portion of their budget toward the show but is hoping the remaining part will be covered by ticket sales.

The group is hoping to pre-sell out the show, which has only happened “once or twice” in the past, said Program Board’s Executive Director Angie Distelrath. Since announcing the spring concert, the group has held two ticket blitz sales for students to have the chance to buy tickets at a reduced prices.

“I think we were able to get a good head start getting the word out with our marketing,” Distelrath said. “With the reaction to the announcement that DNCE would be performing, we think we are going to have a good number in sales.”

DNCE will perform in McGuirk Arena on April 21. Depending on availability, tickets will be sold at the door.

After months of surveying students, the Program Board brings one to two big-name artists to perform each year.

Program Board begins planning their line-up a semester ahead of time. The group focuses on bringing entertainment to students that fit the interests of the entire student body.

The organization brought a literal circus to campus in April 1974 when Program Board sponsored two performances by the Royal Hanneford Circus. According to the Central Michigan Life event coverage, the elephants had entered the Rose Center on their knees as they were too large to fit through the doors.

Other events didn’t feature high ropes, but instead high hope — several speakers were brought to campus including a woman using interactive games to promote body acceptance and a soldier sharing his story of recovering from PTSD. “A lot of times when we’re looking at what defines a success or a successful event is one of those times where the people who are there and the students who are attending the event got something out of it,” said Adam Isley, the adviser of Program Board. “There’s speakers who bring a powerful message. It’s not always about numbers. It’s about providing a good experience for the students who are there. It’s great to be part of that.”

Isley’s main role is providing support and guiding the organization, so he said watching

members’ faces light up as they look at the events and see the good job they did is the best part.

Those people in the audience are appreciative of the performance, but unaware of the hard work Program Board members dedicated to it.

It’s thankless work, he said, but worth it when he sees the difference it’s making to both the audience and the members.

MEMBERSHIP To Brown, Program Board is a way to feed student’s college experience. Looking at the “total college experience,” it’s not just comprised of what happens inside the classroom, but outside of it, he said.

“With 20,000 students on campus, it’s hard to have something for everybody, but we’ve done a great job providing diverse entertainment to students each year,” Brown said. “Hopefully every student finds something on the Program Board calendar that they want to come out and participate in because it is their dollars.”

Program Board is composed of general members and an executive board. The executive board

is made up of special event co-chairs, a comedy director, a concert director and a lecture director. There is also a public relations team and an executive director who oversees the board. “(Members) must be engaged, want to participate and want to be the voice for all of the students on campus,” Distelrath said. “It is really just that drive we are looking for in members — to really be buying into the experience and wanting to be a part of it.”

There is no fee to become a member of Program Board. The group meets at 8 p.m. every Wednesday in the University Center Mackinaw Room.

General meetings begin with announcements about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities, followed by a review of past events. The executive board also provided their members with different professional development opportunities that will allow them to excel in their chosen field.

“You don’t have to be majoring in special events or public relations to be a part of Program Board,” Distelrath said. “I think that’s cool because it gives us the dynamics to have different perspectives in different areas that are reached on campus.”

Students find opportunities to perform comedy on campus

By Evan Sasiela News Editor news@cm-life.com

With larger cities at least an hour away by car, there aren’t many opportunities for Central Michigan University students to perform or experience comedy. Now, a group of witty students are trying to change that.

Trap Door Improv, After Hours Improv and Rubble’s Bar Open Mic Night are providing platforms for CMU students to tickle funny bones. Whether it be improvisational or stand-up routines, these groups and events are creating a comedy community on campus that serves as an outlet for performers.

TRAP DOOR IMPROV Trap Door Improv is sponsored by the University Theatre. Pinnebog senior Will Johnson said the group comprises 13 members who passed an audition process and practice twoto-three nights a week while performing shows regularly.

Despite being sponsored by the university, the group is student-run, Johnson said. The goal of the group is to do improv comedy for people who enjoy it.

LIFE IN BRIEF

“When you have the audience and their combined excitement and their energy, it propels us through no matter how many shows,” Johnson said.

The troupe recently performed two shows on April 12 in Moore Hall Room 102, otherwise known as “The Platform.”

During practice, the comedians start with warmups. On show weeks, they run through an entire setlist and teach games to new members on non-show weeks. Trap Door Improv has about 30 short-form games they can play, Johnson said. The troupe will write them down on the board and select eight to 10 depending on audience participation and group preference.

When the members are not performing, they attend workshops. Trap Door Improv traveled to Ball State University on April 8 to attend the third annual Midwest Improv Festival, which included professional and collegiate troupes.

Johnson described the festival as an “improv boot camp.” At the end of the day, different schools go out together on “the front line” of the festival ending with a show.

“It’s really scary but really fascinating and an exciting way to get to know other people through improv,” Johnson said.

The best part about Trap Door Im-

prov for Johnson is forgetting about his problems for a couple hours with each practice or performance.

“At the end of the day, you’re just laughing and making jokes in front of your great group of friends,” he said. “I think that’s more rewarding than a 200seat theatre filled with people.”

AFTER HOURS IMPROV While Trap Door Improv requires auditions, After Hours Improv is open to anybody.

“After Hours is an open group that specializes in workshops and teaching anyone about the basics of improv if they want to learn,” said Mount Pleasant junior Walter Mueller, president of After Hours. “We’re open to any college student who wants to learn about improv.”

The group has ballooned to 18 members, doubling its membership from the start of the year, Mueller said.

After Hours meets from 7-9 p.m. on Tuesdays in Pearce Hall Room 203 and on Wednesdays in Pearce Hall Room 127.

Mueller said After Hours teaches long-form techniques but applies them to short-form games. They teach The Second City and Upright Citizens Brigade techniques to make short scenes entertaining and as powerful as possible.

Ash Seymour | Freelance Photographer Members of Trap Door Improv perform on April 12 at The Platform in Moore Hall.

With a crop of freshmen, Mueller said it is exciting to have new faces interested in learning improv.

“The atmosphere is really fun because we have people who are just really hungry and here to learn all this new stuff we’re teaching them,” he said. “It’s really fun to have this energy up.”

After Hours Improv will host a show at 6 p.m. Friday, April 21 in Pearce Hall Room 128.

RUBBLE’S OPEN MIC NIGHT Rubble’s Bar, 112 W. Michigan St., hosts a biweekly Wednesday open mic night from 8-11 p.m. The show wel-

comes musicians, poets and comedians.

The show featured a handful of comedians who each performed 10-minute sets at its April 12 show.

Fremont junior Bennett Featherstone performed during that show. He has performed stand-up for more than a year-and-a-half and is a Rubble’s regular.

Featherstone advises everyone to check out the show, although some of the material might not be clean.

“Rubble’s is great,” Featherstone said.

“I like it there and if it wasn’t there we wouldn’t have anything.”

The Rubble’s Open Mic is a show up, go up format. Anyone is invited to perform.

PBS TO VISIT CAMPUS TO SHOOT DOCUMENTARY PBS will visit Central Michigan University on April 19 to film for their new documentary, “Enlisted.”

The documentary is being directed and produced by Keith Famie and Visionalist Entertainment Productions.

The film is produced in association with Urban Communications Group.

The overall goal of the documentary is to answer questions regarding the lives of military members. Three of these questions are: Does a young adult fully understand the consequences of enlisting?

What makes military camaraderie unlike anything

else?

Does the government and society fall short in helping or understanding those who are injured in the military?

The documentary will also show the lives of current active duty military personnel and veterans from World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Maj. Jake Cornett, assistant professor of Military Science, said four cadets and two Cadre members from CMU have already been interviewed. Follow up interviews will take place April 19.

John Kulhavi is also being interviewed for the film and

is an executive producer, Cornett said. As a CMU alumnus and brigadier general in the U.S. Army Reserves, Kulhavi remains involved in CMU’s Army ROTC program.

“Enlisted” will become a two-hour PBS broadcast special. The documentary will include a 90-minute theatrical version for festival submissions and distribution.

The film is scheduled to screen in Detroit and in Florida. Both premieres will benefit local veteran organizations.

BENEFIT not a BURDEN New UP requirement fits CMU’s core values, will not make it longer for students to graduate

A

t its April 4 meeting, the Academic Senate voted to add a new University Program category requiring students to take a course in non-race based discrimination.

This course requirement will benefit students and the entire Central Michigan University community by creating a more inclusive campus — one of the university’s core values.

The new category, subgroup IV-D, will require students starting in 2019 to take a class focused on discrimination issues regarding gender, sex, identity, sexuality, sexual orientation, religion or disability.

This change will not extend the time

EDITORIAL

it takes students to graduate — a major concern for many senators who earlier opposed the proposal.

It does not add additional general education credits to the curriculum. Instead, classes from the IV-D category will replace the UP-elective category.

Furthermore, if departments or colleges with high-credit bearing majors, like

College of Business Administration and School of Engineering and Technology, believe these classes will prolong their students’ time to graduate, that department or college can apply for an exemption from the General Education Committee.

However, we think departments and colleges that apply for an exemption would be putting students at a disadvantage and not providing them all of the skills need to succeed.

We commend the Academic Senate for passing this proposal.

It shows A-Senate is committed to improving the CMU experience for all students who come to this campus. It’s a

show of support for marginalized groups.

It shows their struggles are valid and the CMU community is committed to teaching about those struggles and how to solve them.

While adding this new requirement won’t end discrimination, we think it is a step in the right direction on our campus.

As an institution of higher education, it’s vital CMU prioritizes offering courses that will better equip students with understanding issues our society faces.

Students will learn about the social struggles people face that aren’t as often discussed as racial discrimination is — this could include discrimination against their

mothers and sisters, their disabled family members, their gay or transgender classmates, their Muslim or Hindu neighbors.

Whether you’re a science major or a philosophy major, these classes will help you excel in your field and in life. In an increasingly globalized world, being able to understand and communicate with a diverse range of people is a critical skill needed to succeed in any career field.

If you don’t see how important these courses are, you are probably someone who needs to take one.

It will benefit us all.

We could all use a little more understanding.

Student’s story inspired me to join Be The Match registry After reading about the story of Central Michigan University senior Kyle Tanner, I was overwhelmed with emotion.

The disease he has, Fanconi anemia, is horrible. Being the same age as him, I can’t imagine dealing with what he’s gone through.

Since Tanner was first diagnosed with the life-threatening disease at age 16, he has lived every day knowing someday he would need a potentially life-saving bone marrow transplant.

The thought made me feel helpless.

I felt so much for him and people in similar situations. But what could I do for him or someone like him?

Ashley Simigian Design Editor

After a little research, I found that Be The Match is an easy and quick way to sign up to become a bone marrow donor or to simply donate money.

Immediately, I was compelled to do both. I think college students should seriously consider being a blood, bone marrow, stem cell, plasma, organ or other kind of donor. It’s an easy way to make an

impact — even save a life.

After telling people I was going to register to become a marrow donor, I kept getting the same response: “Don’t you know how painful it is to donate bone marrow?”

I couldn’t understand where these people were coming from. Maybe I’ll be in pain for a couple days from the procedure, sure. But the short-term soreness will be worth it if it means someone else may have a new chance at life.

How could one day of pain compare to a life lost?

I thought about if the situation was switched. What if I, or someone I know,

had a disease where they needed a marrow donor, but had to wait years to find a match?

It would be awful.

I would be eternally grateful if a stranger cared enough to give a donation that will save the life of someone they may never meet.

For Tanner, a 20-year-old from Germany is the person who made the decision to help a stranger. It saved Tanner’s life.

If donating a part of your body doesn’t sit well with you, you can still donate money. I understand some people may not be in the right financial spot to

donate, but you have to think beyond the meaning of money.

I’m a college student. I have bills to pay and work a part-time minimum wage job. But I can still find a way to give. I can sacrifice going to Panera Bread every week or going on my next “treat yourself ” shopping trip.

Saving a life is worth it.

People can register to donate at Bethematch.org. Be The Match at CMU is hosting a drive on campus from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Friday, April 21 in the Park Library and Health Professions Building.

Letter to the

EDITOR

We’ve waited long enough for a Gender & Sexuality Center TO THE EDITOR: In a recent letter to the editor to Central Michigan Life, a Central Michigan University student argued that now is not the right time for CMU to create a Gender and Sexuality Center.

The student said budget cuts and existing resources were reasons for delaying the center. However, creating the GSC is a necessity. It will provide resources that do not currently exist and the demand for it has been around for decades.

In the letter, the student points to the Office of LGBTQ Services as an existing resource for marginalized students. To clarify, the proposed GSC will absorb LGBTQ Services. It would continue to provide resources for LGBTQ students, but also provide resources for women.

Women particularly face challenges in college, including sexual assault, sexual harassment, imposter syndrome, stereotype threat, microaggressions and many other issues.

A GSC, unlike LGBTQ Services, would provide resources to help women overcome these issues.

Sexual Aggression Peer Advocates and the Counseling Center are for short-term, crisis situations. Spectrum and Transcend are student-run groups, lacking adequate resources. On-campus awareness events are excellent, but do not provide long-term support for marginalized students. Students need a permanent place to get advice on reporting incidents to Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity, support if they choose not to

report, and a place to be around other survivors.

Most importantly, it would show that CMU is committed to helping all students succeed — including women — by providing tangible resources to overcome institutional sexism. Yes, there are excellent programs that exist on campus, but they exist because of the work of faculty and students who receive no institutional support.

CMU is out of step with peer institutions in this area. The first women’s centers began appearing in 1960. Today, CMU is one of few publicly funded universities without such resources. To remain competitive in the eyes of prospective students, we need to follow best practices among our peer institutions. For example, the University of Michigan’s Center for

the Education of Women celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2014. A GSC will make us more appealing to prospective students, thus helping to ameliorate the deficit.

Furthermore, once the center has been established, there are many sources of funding that CMU can apply for to sustain and grow it. We understand the university is grappling with a $20 million budget deficit.

However, CMU had many years to develop a financial plan to create the center — but they haven’t.

People often try to guilt us into silence, saying creating a GSC would cause more layoffs. But that money could come from things like the Residence Life Carnival or Up All Night. It could have come from what was spent on new signs around campus. Ulti-

mately, the university is showing that signs, parties and carnivals are more important than creating a resource to help marginalized students.

It’s unacceptable.

The budget needs to be allocated according to the university’s top priorities. Faculty, staff, and resources that aid student education (like the GSC) should be top priorities.

This center needs to be a priority.

The “right time” for it to be created was 50 years ago. So no, the Gender and Sexuality Center should not be “put in the to be continued folder.”

Nearly 100 students gathered to celebrate Asian and Asian-American cultures at the annual Celebrasia event on April 13 in Pearce Hall Room 127.

The grand finale of Central Michigan University’s Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, Celebrasia, was hosted by the Asian Cultural Organization. The event showcased different cultures and talents of students with Asian heritage through song, dance, choreographed fights, fashion and more. “(Celebrasia is) nice because it’s all of us coming together and enjoying our rich history and culture,” said Wyandotte sophomore Tiffany Nguyen, head of the planning committee. “(We’re) showcasing (diversity) and being appreciative that we are still able to touch on that.”

The celebration was split into two parts, with a 10-minute intermission in between. Both acts featured various solo, duet and group song and dance performances. Singers performed in either English or their native language.

Hawaii freshman Lorenzo Aleman recited slam

poetry in three different sets during Celebrasia.

There was also a fashion show at the event, showcasing attire from China, Vietnam, Korea and the Philippines.

One performance featured a performance by Vietnam junior Nam Le, and his girlfriend Wyandotte freshman Thao Nguyen. Le sang “City of Stars” while Thao Nguyen accompanied him on the ukulele.

“I performed because it was an occasion to showcase my talent,” Le said. “By showcasing our culture, we are helping to advocate for diversity on campus”.

Vietnam sophomore Hung Chan Tran participated in two performances. In the first act he sang “It’s Only My World” by YB, and demonstrated a freestyle dance in the second.

Tran said enjoys performing because he wants to share his passion for dance with everyone.

Students demonstrated a choreographed fight called “Black Rose,” where two performers fought to intense music, acting as characters in a story being shown to the crowd on a screen behind them.

During a taekwondo exhibition, three students demonstrated exercises and broke wooden boards and concrete slabs. The audience audibly responded in awe.

This was the first time sophomore Gabrielle Espinoza attended Celebrasia. He said it was an engaging way to expose students to new and different cultures.

LIFE IN BRIEF

Events like this are important for diversity,» Espinoza said. “It allows people be more cultured and see all the cultures that are here.”

Pride of the Prize: Alumni receive Pulitzer Prize wins, nods

By Evan Sasiela News Editor news@cm-life.com

E. Jason Wambsgans was editing photos and video Monday at the Chicago Tribune when a coworker told him he won.

“Won what?” Wambsgans responded.

The coworker then informed Wambsgans that he received the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography.

Wambsgans’ work was submitted by the Tribune for the Prize five-to-six times before. When Pulitzer winners were announced, the Central Michigan University alumnus had forgotten his work was entered. Monday’s win was a blunt moment of shock for Wambsgans.

“I didn’t believe it for a minute or two,” Wambsgans said. “Then it was just a crazy swirl of emotions — terror, shock, elation — everything at once. I came out and the entire newsroom was cheering. It was definitely overwhelming.”

Wambsgans is one of four Central Michigan Life alumni nominated for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize awards. He won in the Feature Photograph category. Wambsgans won for his photos of Tavon Tanner, 11, after he survived a shooting in Chicago last August. His photos capture the relationship between Tavon and his mother, Mellanie Washington.

Karen Johnson, a Central Michigan Life editorin-chief from 1993-94, contributed to a victory in the Explanatory Reporting category as a member of McClatchey Washington Bureau.

Jake May, a former Central Michigan Life editorin-chief, was a finalist in the Feature Photography category for his photos depicting the Flint water crisis for the Flint Journal.

Dave Harris, another former Central Michigan Life editor-in-chief, and the staff of the Orlando Sentinel were finalists for the Breaking News Reporting category for their coverage of the Pulse Nightclub shooting last June.

For the past four years, Wambsgans has been documenting violence in Chicago. Last spring, he covered children suffering, after 24 children ages 12 and younger were shot in the Windy City.

Wambsgans found Tavon, whom he described as shy but “strikingly beautiful” and “incredibly expressive.”

Wambgans, a Detroit-area native, has worked at the Tribune since 2002. He worked as a Central Michigan Life photographer in the mid-1990s, with Johnson as his former editor-in-chief at the time. He remembers Johnson as being a “real journalist” and he was far from it. “(Johnson) would try and encourage me,” he said. “I distinctly remember her asking me, ‘Are you going work for a newspaper?’ I remember

saying, ‘I will never work for a newspaper.’

“That’s amazing (that she won a Pulitzer as well). I had no idea she won. That’s really funny.”

Johnson was part of the McClatchey and Miami Herald International Consortium of Investigative Journalists team that won the Explanatory Reporting category for the Panama Papers.

There were 300 reporters on six continents that sought to “expose the hidden infrastructure and global scale of offshore tax havens,” the Pulitzer Prize website states. Johnson now works as a writer at the University of Maryland’s Smith School of Business.

Johnson was a news editor at McClatchey during the Panama Papers data leak and edited the final stories. She said the pursuit of truth and craft of journalism is more important today than ever, and applauds her colleagues at McClatchey that uncovered the truth.

“There was a ton of camaraderie and excitement,” Johnson said. “It would have been a let down if we hadn’t gotten it, but at the same time I think this group was committed to celebrating that they did some meaningful journalism together, and they continue to as well. It’s fun to be part of that enthusiasm.”

Jake May, chief photojournalist at the Flint Journal and MLive, was named a finalist for his photos chronicling the Flint water crisis.

The Flint water crisis began in 2014 when Flint switched its water source from treated Detroit water to the Flint River. Many residents suffered lead poisoning after it leached lead from pipes into the drinking water.

May said while he is humbled to be a finalist for a Pulitzer, it is about the people of Flint who are still living through the crisis. He praised his colleagues at the Flint Journal for telling these stories from all angles. May said he is happy to be a neighbor and member of the community.

May said CMU has one of the best photojournalism departments in the nation. He said is not surprised that CMU’s journalism department produced four Pulitzer honorees this year.

“In an era where some people call fake news, all four of these are what hard work, dedication and true heart in your community can portray,” May said. “I know each and every person that comes through the program can do just that. You just have to step up to the plate, do the work, boots on the ground and never stop.”

Harris preceded May as editor-in-chief at Central Michigan Life and the two worked together at the Flint Journal before Harris moved to Orlando.

He said the Pulitzer helps put the ongoing crisis in Flint back in the limelight and is a reminder of the terrorist attack at Pulse last June.

“If you would have told me that when I

started at CMU in the fall of 2003 that I’d be on a staff that would be a finalist for a Pulitzer, I would have laughed,” Harris said. “To be able

to share it with my colleagues and friends at the Sentinel and to be in the same year as Jake and the other CMU people makes it even better.”

Threads Fashion Show, second largest event on campus showcases young design talent

By Samantha Shriber Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Clothing collections designed by students will come to life on the runway during the 19th annual Threads Fashion Show.

The student-run show is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. on April 22 in Finch Fieldhouse. Audience members will be able to view art pieces in the Mounted Expedition before models strut the runway. A moderated Q&A session with “Project Runway” co-host Tim Gunn will follow the show.

The event will showcase Central Michigan University’s Fashion Merchandising and Design program’s “ingenuity, skill and high esteem,” said Carly Coleman, director of the show’s logistics.

“This is a big event we put on to push how talented our program is, how hard our students work and how innovative a lot of their work is,” said Coleman, an Ithaca senior.

General admission tickets cost $10 and VIP access tickets are $50. Tickets can be purchased through Ticket Central or directly from a member of the Threads production class, FMD 357A. The VIP access package offers priority seating in the first three rows and admittance to a VIP reception in the Powers Ballroom.

Threads Fashion Show is the second largest event on campus, said Threads’ faculty adviser Ian Mull.

The cost of the show has also increased.

Threads cost $16,000 in 2016. This year’s production nearly doubled, costing $30,000.

Mull said he saw up to 80 percent increases on labor costs alone.

“I find it ironic that our students are paying tuition for this class, they are raising the funds

for this show and (are) being charged the same as a group coming from outside of campus,” Mull said.

University Events provides the production with technical equipment to put on the show in Finch Fieldhouse, but the class is responsible for labor fees.

The cost for student tech workers also went up from $14 to $17 an hour per employee.

“This has been a really big struggle in Threads given that we didn’t anticipate this,” Mull said, “The show may be cost prohibitive next year.”

The College of Human Environmental Studies gives the production class a budget of $2,500. The budget is then brought up by ticket sales from previous shows, fundraising and the show’s sponsors.

Threads’ biggest sponsors are the Foster Swift Collins and Smith law firm and CMU Alumni Association.

Despite financial obstacles, students have continued to work vigorously since last May to put on the show. Student designers, models and event planners have combined strengths to present a fashion show of high acclaim.

DESIGNERS PREPARE TO SEE THEIR IDEAS COME TO LIFE One of Thread’s biggest goals is to provide an experience similar to a professional fashion show.

The production requires 500 hours of event service and will exhibit the craftsmanship of one of the country’s twenty-five best fashion programs, Mull said.

“We try with this show to replicate it to be as similar to the industry (as possible),” he said.

Out of the 35 Fashion Merchandising and Design students who submitted apparel collections, 26 designers are featured in this year’s show.

The elimination process took place on judging day, where designers were given 10 minute time slots to present their garments to five anonymous judges. Only models were allowed to be in the same room as the judges.

Designs that scored well during judging day will be recognized during the show. The top collections will earn cash prizes with money from the College of Education and Human Services.

Early submissions for the show were due February 24 and late submissions were due April 7. Designers needed to provide mood boards, sketches, a design statement and hair

and makeup preferences for their collection.

This is the first year that all judging was anonymous. Judges rated designs off a point system based on construction, creativity and aesthetic appeal.

“Designers are not going to know who is judging them and the judges won’t know whose work they are looking at,” said Alyssa Kohler, the director of submissions and hospitality for Threads.

in hard work for Threads. Planning of the event’s theme has been ongoing since a month after last year’s show concluded.

Planning began in May 2016, after producers were selected by Mull earlier that month.

Mull looks for producers who are “multifaceted.” Ideal candidates are “hardworking, talented and (equipped with) creativity and leadership skills,” he said.

For him, co-producers Julia Allen and Lauren Agnew are a complementary pair who give the show “the best overall package” for this year.

By August, student producers were prepared to move forward with the show’s themes, turning their ideas into reality, Mull added.

The show’s theme this year is “Fashion Expedition.” It combines elements drawn from travel and “exploring new places, new ideas and yourself,” Allen said.

Allen came up with the idea during her internship with the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. The Macomb junior remembers staring out her dorm room window when she started getting inspired.

“Being in New York made me think about diversity and culture,” Allen said. “It was something that everyone (there related to and

was connected by) because it was a city of so many different (personalities and) cultures.”

The theme will focus on elements of selfdiscovery and adventure, the producers said.

“It is really focused on pushing yourself out into the world to take adventures, explore creativity and go places you have never been before,” Mull said.

SETTING UP THE SHOW’S AESTHETIC Planners used the idea of travel to convey the show’s theme. For example, the tickets are designed to resemble airplane boarding passes.

The stage will also include lighting using special runway fixtures to mimic an airport setting. Illinois sophomore Krista Franzese hopes this will remind audiences of the producers’ concepts. “(We aim) to show the path to finding your inner self,” said Franzese, who is responsible for lighting, music, model choreography and designing the runway.

Franzese is one of six committee directors.

co-host for Lifetime reality television series “Project Runway” and “Project Runway Junior.”

Gunn and his co-host Heidi Klum won a 2013 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to watch ‘Project Runway’ the same after this experience,” Agnew said. “I won’t even believe I am meeting him until I’m sitting next to him in front of (everybody).”

This year’s Threads’ designers will also have a private meet and greet with Gunn. The fashion icon is expected to view their garments and take a photograph with designers on the day of the show.

“I can’t even describe it,” said Commerce Township sophomore Tiffany Griffiths. “Being able to meet a top fashion icon is super incredible and I can’t even believe we were able to get (Tim Gunn) here.”

After negotiations with Threads, Program Board, University Events and his agent, Gunn agreed to do the segment under moderation by Mull and Threads’ student producers. Although he committed to doing the Q&A segment, Gunn will not be present for the actual show.

Gunn was first contacted by Program Board to be included in the 2017 Central Michigan University Speaker Series that runs from April 24-25 in Finch Fieldhouse.

“Program Board (is) really responsible for bringing him in,” Mull said. “They realized that Threads and Tim Gunn were a really good (match).”

Gunn will not be the only Lifetime guest star making an appearance. Fourth place winner from the second season of “Project Runway Ju-

nior,” Isabella Kostrezwa, will also be at Threads.

Kostrezwa’s stage name is Izzy and she is a junior at the Sacred Heart Academy in Mount Pleasant. She will have her own station at the venue that will be presenting three of her garments displayed on live models. Each of these outfits was created and shown on the show that premiered Dec. 22, 2016.

WALKING THE RUNWAY Leah Robinson joined Threads’ model calls last year and is now a student director for models.

The Farmington Hills sophomore is responsible for coordinating more than 100 student models for this year’s show.

Designers choose their own models. Many of them had a good idea of who their models would be prior to the open casting calls held earlier this semester, Robinson said.

Robinson’s committee focused on teaching student models how to walk properly and improve their stature on the runway.

“The most important thing for a model is to keep in mind that it is not about them, it is about the designer and the garment,” Robinson said. “Models are basically a live mannequin.

They need to make sure to show off the garment to the best of their ability.

“Our designers spend so much time making these outfits that it needs to be seen by everyone who attends.”

For Robinson, using CMU students as models makes the show more personal.

“It’s our own students and we are targeting our own student body,” she said. “Having your friends and family up on stage makes (the show) just that much more exciting.”

Student creates fashion line ‘good vibes’

By Kara Dobulis Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Peter Januzelli and Dean Myrto found a common passion for fashion after living next door to each other during their freshman year.

Now, the two juniors are collaborating and have created a clothing line to showcase in the Threads Fashion Show. For the past four months, Januzelli and Myrto have shared ideas, sketched, measured, designed and created.

“Our goal was to use lots of bright colors to spread positive vibes,” Myrto said. “We want it so people wear our clothes just feel really good about themselves. We decided to use a lot of yellows, oranges and reds — really happy, cheerful colors.”

Januzelli and Myrto incorporated their own style in the collection. They wanted their designs to have a comfortable streetwear aesthetic, but also a high-fashion look to it. Their collection will consist of five different “looks,” including pieces such as bomber jackets and sweatpants.

They chose models whose personal styles matched their designs, Januzelli said.

“We want people to be excited about the clothes,” Januzelli said. “(Our clothes) aren’t just something to put on and walk down the runway in. We really want people to feel a certain energy and feel really good about what they are wearing.”

This will be Januzelli’s second year submitting a collection to Threads. Originally from Greenville, Januzelli said he came to Central Michigan University for its Entrepreneurship program. After deciding he needed to focus on a specific area, he became interested in the Fashion Merchandising and Design program and signed his minor in fashion last spring. This led to his decision to submit a collection to the show, despite not having any prior sewing or design courses.

It was CMU alumnus Zach Stoner who taught Januzelli to sew. Stoner, a Fashion Merchandising and Design student at the time, met Januzelli at a model workshop and agreed to mentor him.

“When we first started talking, Peter seemed genuinely interested in sewing and the design process,” Stoner said. “He didn’t have any sewing experience at the time but wanted some before he even took the classes. I thought that was really cool — his interest really intrigued me, along with his drive.”

Since then, Januzelli has been networking to try to get his name out in the fashion industry. He spent the past summer in Chicago working at Louis Vuitton and plans to return there this summer.

Januzelli said the fashion community is “very tightly knit,” and he is trying to become a part of it.

Binge Yan | Staff Photographer Greenville senior Peter Januzelli sews fabric on March 26 in Wightman Hall.

“My goal is to have my own (clothing) line one day,” Januzelli said. “I’m excited to show off my work. Around 2,000 people will see it — that’s way more (people) than posting on social media or just handing it to someone. This is a show (where) all the attention is on the runway and the work.”

This will be Myrto’s first time submitting a collection to Threads. Like Januzelli, Myrto hadn’t considered pursuing a career in fashion.

The West Bloomfield native originally came to CMU as an engineering major, but quickly realized it wasn’t a pathway he was interested in.

Myrto switched his major to entrepreneurship halfway through his sophomore year and chose to pursue a minor in FMD. He said watching his grandmother sew and make clothes while growing up developed his love for fashion.

“I wanted to make sure I was doing something I actually enjoy,” Myrto said. “Because if I don’t enjoy something, I’m not going to put 100 percent effort into it. Now that I am doing fashion, I really enjoy it. It allows me to be creative and I’ve always loved that.”

He said that he became interested in Threads because he loves designing clothes, and showcasing his work to a large number of people is a motivator to create high-end clothes.

“I’m looking forward to presenting the clothes and seeing people’s reactions to our work,” Myrto said. “(Threads) is a really great opportunity to show everyone what we are capable of.”

Feminist organization increases membership to 80 in one year

In the past 17 years, the Organization of Women Leaders (OWLs) has evolved from a registered student organization providing training and community support for female students, to a group that fights for social justice and gender equality issues on campus.

When OWLs was established at Central Michigan University’s campus in 2000, Erin SmithGaken, OWLs adviser, said there were between 30 and 40 members. Last year, membership hit an all-time low with eight women involved.

However, the organization persevered and this year participation has peaked to 80 members.

“It has been interesting to watch the progression and changes the group has made,” she said.

Smith-Gaken said the ultimate goals of the organization are always student driven. The OWLs executive board decides what issues the group will dedicate its energy toward.

Membership dropped drastically the 201516 academic year in part because the executive board’s structure was disorganized, said OWLs President Madison Rodriguez-Eberth. Many women left the organization because its inefficient communication was too stressful.

Others left because a transgender member wasn’t getting the respect they deserved due to the group lacking a «proper pronoun education,” said the Allen Park senior.

The drop in membership sparked rumors of “exclusivity” in the organization, RodriguezEberth added. Though she inherited a lot of problems coming into her presidency, Rodriguez-Eberth has been able to “work with it, work against it, prove people wrong and bring a better image to OWLs.” “This year we’ve made it very clear (that OWLs is a feminist group),” she said.

Creating a better image involved re-constructing the organization’s constitution.

Article II of the constitution, for example, was revised to reflect the president’s desire to promote inclusivity. It now states: “Membership in the Organization of Women Leaders shall not be denied based on age, biological sex, disability, familial status, marital status, national origin, political persuasion, race, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status.”

Rodiguez-Eberth said she is still concerned that the language in the organization’s title

excludes men and gender non-conforming individuals, potentially barring them from joining.

“We just need to shift the dialogue,” she said. “We’ll be working on that next year, emphasizing that we’re open to everybody.”

In the fall, Rodriguez-Eberth will step down from her position. President-elect, Ashleigh Laho will take over.

Laho hopes to continue to build upon the activism that Rodriguez-Eberth brought into OWLs this year. The Wyandotte sophomore plans to create a monthly “open meeting” where prospective members of any gender identity can learn about OWLs. “It isn’t just for women, it’s for everyone,” Laho said.

Most OWLs meetings are only open to members. Having monthly open meetings can help encourage more students to get involved in the group’s advocacy.

In the first week of each semester, the organization hosts an open house where anyone is welcome to attend and learn about OWLs mission. During that week, students can apply for membership.

On the application, students are asked to describe themselves, what feminism means to them and the social issues they are passionate about.

Applications are then reviewed by the OWLs executive board, which selects and approves new members into the organization.

OWLs still needs to work on membership bonding. As enrollment grows, new participants are feeling isolated by the returning members, said Chesterfield sophomore Brittany Ouelette.

Ouelette proposed a mentor program to resolve these issues, where returning members could be paired with a newer member to make them more comfortable in speaking up and reaching out.

Laho echoed Ouelette’s sentiment. While the mentorship program idea is not “set in stone,” Laho thinks reaching out within the organization is just as important as reaching to the CMU community for support.

To encourage OWL members to share their voices, Laho said she wants to begin every meeting with an “issue-education session” where students can openly discuss issues they are passionate about.

“Feeling like you’re part of a movement is key,” she said. “I want people to bring their passions, and that comes with intersectionality.”

Grafton golfer strives to return to short game success

By Mitchell Vosburg Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Grafton freshman Danielle Sawyer isn’t known as a big hitter, but she has a great short game.

Growing up as a multi-sport athlete, Sawyer brings something valuable to the Central Michigan golf program — a strong work ethic.

She played golf, soccer, and hockey at St. Mary Catholic in Grafton, Ontario.

Sawyer led the nation in fewest putts per round in the Fall 2016 season, averaging 28.89 a round in 18 holes. She shot a school record even par 72 during the second day of the Rocket Classic last fall and set the program record for a two-day score with a 150 and finished tied for 11 — the highest finish for any golfer last fall.

Her performance in the spring season has not been to the same level as the fall. Sawyer currently averages 82.54 for 18 holes, with her lowest round coming in at 81 on the first day of the Grand Canyon Women’s Spring Invitational in March.

Sawyer understands golf is a game of give and take.

“I’ve been struggling a little bit,” she said about

her spring performance so far. “Some days it’s up, some days it’s down. I’m just trying to get it back to where it was at in the fall.”

PUTTS OVER SLAP SHOTS Head coach Cheryl Stacy met Sawyer in the summer of 2015 at an American Junior Golf Association event in Boyne.

“She hadn’t commit(ed) anywhere,” Stacy said.

“Her scores were a bit up and down.”

After Sawyer put her clubs away for the season, she laced up her skates and hit the ice. She played hockey all four years of high school as a center with good hands and a presence on defense.

“I was a grinder,” Sawyer said. “I was a rough player, I drew a lot of penalties. I was in a lot of plays and with my size (standing at 5’3”) I would fall over a lot because someone caused it.”

Sawyer decided to continue her golf career after high school because she appreciated the challenge.

“I really loved hockey,” she said. “Golf was always a tricky challenge because you’re only playing yourself. (In hockey) referees could dictate the game, (and) you (could) blame your teammates. In golf, you can only blame yourself.”

Sawyer came to CMU because of the way Stacy

ran a rebuilding golf program.

“I liked the culture and values (Stacy was) preaching,” Sawyer said. “I loved the atmosphere at Central.

I wanted to be part of a developing team.”

Stacy highlighted Sawyer’s maturity and dedication to golf and academics.

“She is probably one of our hardest workers,” Stacy said. “She’s a great student (currently carrying a 4.0 GPA), very responsible, very mature for a freshman. She wants what’s best for the team. We were fortunate to get her, I think she can have a great career here.”

Sawyer’s work ethic is influenced by her favorite hockey player — Max Pacioretty of the Montreal Canadiens.

“He seemed liked he always put his head down and worked hard,” Sawyer said. “He had a really bad neck injury 6 or 7 years ago. He came back from that and I always wanted to be like that.”

When it comes to big moments on the course, Sawyer’s ability to stay calm and think through situations helps her stay composed.

“When I’m on the course I try to think through situations, try to make the most logical decision,” Sawyer said. “It doesn’t always go as a I plan, but I try to see the bigger picture of things.”

Lacrosse snaps four-game losing streak in sudden death overtime

Highlight of the Week

sports@cm-life.com

Freshman attacker Natalie Karlen scored the game-winning goal on a pass from Jocelyne Lemay to give the Central Michigan lacrosse team a victory in sudden death overtime Thursday night at the Lacrosse/Soccer Complex.

The Chippewas snapped a four-game losing streak and defeated Old Dominion, the defending Atlantic Sun Conference champions, 11-10 .

“My heart was racing a little bit,” Karlen said.

“We’ve been practicing that all week and I knew Jocelyne would pass it to me so I was ready.”

Neither team could find the net before Karlen scored with 17:36 left in the half to give CMU a lead.

The Chippewas scored three more goals before the Monarchs cut CMU’s lead to 4-1 going into the break.

In addition to Karlen, Tyra Prince, Emma Hamilton and Lemay each scored in the first half for the Chippewas.

The second half was a back-and-forth contest, with the Chippewas clinging to a lead most of the way before Old Dominion’s Lauren Irvine tied the game at 10 with less than five minutes remaining.

The Monarchs controlled play for much of the final minutes, but freshman goalkeeper Hope Murray made several key saves.

“Hope Murray was lights out tonight,” said Head Coach Sara Tisdale. “For her to come back this week and make adjustments was great.”

Central Michigan will face Delaware State and Howard before returning home to wrap up the regular season against in-state rival Detroit Mercy on May 29.

Lorimer’s journey to becoming a leader goes beyond softball

By Andrew McDonald Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

For Central Michigan softball’s redshirt senior Evelyn Lorimer, getting one year of eligibility back wasn’t enough to give her a full four years on the field.

Between a torn ACL, a broken arm and a dislocated elbow, the Spring Lake native has had four surgeries in two years. Though she is back for the season, the process to her recovery wasn’t short.

“It’s been a tough last two years to say the least,” she said. “I’m glad to be back and healthy for my senior year.”

It was an adjustment to sit seasons out for a player who started 13 games as a freshman at CMU. She appeared in 27 games in the 2013 season.

Lorimer rehabbed for nearly two years and didn’t start hitting again until January to prepare for this season. She said the rehabilitation process was “more than enough.”

“It took a long time to get through it, and at some points it wasn’t all that easy too keep moving forward, but that’s where my teammates kept me positive,” Lorimer said. “I didn’t play in practice at all last year and obviously had no game action until this year, so I’m still trying to get back into it. I have a couple of months left and I am excited.”

As a sophomore, Lorimer started on the field nearly every game. She led the team with 18 stolen bases.

Currently a senior, Lorimer has started x of the x games she has played in. The senior is hitting at a x batting average, has scored x runs and tallied x RBIs. Lorimer said she needed more than just her own thoughts to get back on the field this season.

“I don’t think my coaches and my teammates were going to let me give up on myself,” Lorimer said. “They were always encouraging and push-

ing me to get better and stronger. Now we have some injured girls on our team and it’s nice to be able to help them through it.”

Freshman shortstop Morgan Gardner, who said earlier this season that Lorimer is someone she “looked up to,” said she brings multiple attributes to helping this team.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen her on a down day,” Gardner said. “I’ll miss her energy and happiness around this team when she is gone because she’s helped me with anything since I’ve been here.”

Senior pitcher Rachael Knapp, who has been teammates with Lorimer since she was a freshman, said Lorimer does a lot more than just perform on the field. “(Lorimer) is such a positive person, I think she brings so much energy and experience to our team,” Lorimer said. “She is such a supportive person, especially behind the scenes where other people can’t see it, she does a lot for all of us.”

GETTING TO THE TOP The Chippewas are currently in x place in the

Mid-American Conference West Division, chasing x for first place in the division as they look for a MAC regular season title.

It has been four years since CMU has won the MAC Tournament. The Chippewas also hold the record for the most MAC regular season titles (nine), but they haven’t been crowned the MAC regular season champions since 2004.

Lorimer believes her team could do more than just win a MAC title with their group this season.

“My freshman year was the last time that we won the MAC Tournament, so I think we are really aiming one step at a time to get to the MAC Tournament and win it, then head to regionals,” Lorimer said. “I totally think this team has the capability, we have a bond like any other team I’ve ever been on.

“It reminds me a lot of that team from my freshman year with the encouragement we all give each other.”

The 5-foot-9 right fielder said as far as the season goes, what she wants to accomplish has to do with the team rather than just herself.

“All I want is to help this team get back their because they deserve it, we all do,” Lorimer said. “I want everyone to play our hardest and do everything we can to get back (to the MAC Tournament), and honestly a regular season championship would be great too.”

Head coach Margo Jonker said Lorimer is the type of player who would give anything to help the team get what it needs.

“Evie is the kind of player that will do whatever it takes to get back to that championship, and she’s been a good leader with her actions on and off the field,” Jonker said. “The injuries she has had to deal with have been tough on her, but she found a way to lead through it all and is a key piece of making this team win games.”

Looking back, Lorimer said Jonker made a w SOFTBALL | 20

huge impact on her decision to come to CMU. “Way back in 2012, she challenged me and said, ‘You know what? I think you’re good, but I think you could be better,’ and I really liked that because I always wanted push myself and I always wanted to be better, so she challenged me to do more and I really liked that.”

The Chippewas still have 11 games remaining before they will head to the MAC Tournament which starts May 10 in Akron, Ohio.

LIFE AFTER SOFTBALL When it comes to life for Lorimer outside of the foul lines, Lorimer has a hobby that she truly enjoys — painting “I really enjoy being able to just get away from everything and paint things, it’s probably something people wouldn’t know about me,” Lorimer said.

After she graduates from CMU, Lorimer is getting married in September. It will be a big milestone in her life after getting her degree, she said.

Jonker said that Lorimer, who only has limited

time left in her college softball career, will be remembered around here in a couple of ways.

“It has been a challenging path for (Lorimer) with the surgeries she has had, and for her to work hard enough to come back says a lot about who she is,” Jonker said. “She has a true love for the game and a even bigger love for CMU softball. So that is impressive to me, she may not have the same skill set she did before the injury, but she will be remembered for the hard work she put in to get back on this team, and for the person she is outside the game.”

Lorimer herself said that she isn’t looking to be remembered “by the status quo”, but more for other reasons instead.

“I’m not one of those players that will go down in the record books or anything, but I would just like to be remembered for encouraging and being there for my teammates on and off the field,” Lorimer said. “That’s what it is all about and that, and that’s what coach Jonker has really encouraged on this team, and that is why we are so successful.”

After fighting through four different surgeries and getting back on the field for her senior year, Lorimer has one last chance to get that “successful” finish and goal of a MAC title she has pushed to get back on the field for.
