Mount Pleasant receives grant to paint third intersection downtown

By Ashley Schafer Community Editor news@cm-life.com

Adding to the art and creativity in downtown Mount Pleasant, a third intersection will be painted in Summer 2019 after the city received a grant to do so.

“Paint the Intersection” is an ongoing project spearheaded by the Art Reach of Mid-Michigan where downtown intersections of road are painted as a public art installation.

“The goal is to beautify downtown and provide an opportunity for a public art installation that everyone is invited to help create,” said Amy Powell, executive director at Art Reach.

The City of Mount Pleasant was awarded a mini grant of $2,200 from the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs to add another intersection, Franklin and Broadway Streets, to the project.

Currently, the intersections of Broadway and University, and

Chelsea Grobelny | Photo Editor

Broadway and Main Streets, are each painted with a bright-colored, geometric design.

Powell said a design for the Franklin intersection will be approved by

the city manager in the spring.

“I fully expect that in 2019 all three intersections will have the same geometric design,” Powell said.

Larger geometric shapes are

easier for people of all ages and all skill sets to paint, she added.

In 2013, more than 400 people flocked to downtown to paint the first intersection on Main Street,

according to a Nov. 2 Mount Pleasant press release. The second intersection was painted this year with support from Max and Emily’s Bakery Cafe.

“We fully expect there to be at least 400 people again (next) year,” Powell said.

She said a lot of community members have come to look forward to the event where they spend a whole day downtown, eating locally and shopping.

“In addition to the feel good benefits of creating this cool art piece and having hundreds of people participate in the creation of it, it’s also having an economic impact on the downtown area,” Powell said.

In the past, the project has also contributed to the local economy by buying the durable, acrylic paint from Percha Paint and Wallpaper, located in Mount Pleasant, Powell said.

NEW BLAZE PIZZA CHAIN RESTAURANT OPENS TUESDAY ON MISSION STREET A new Blaze Pizza location in Mount Pleasant will soon be open to the public.

The current plan is for the new location to open on Nov. 13, according to Ryan Fauble, the director of Blaze Midwest Inc. The new location will be located in a shopping center between 1218 and 1222 S. Mission St. Fauble said Blaze Pizza is a fast, casual pizza chain. He said the quality of the service makes it stand out from other similar chains. Blaze Pizza offers pre-designed pizzas, or let’s you build your own.

He said this location is planning on working with third party delivery companies to offer

delivery to customers, although no deals are currently in place.

Fauble said the pizza chains are intended for the entire community, but said business does well with the universities and students.

“Blaze Pizza considers itself a millennial concept,” Fauble said.

A new service road was part of the development of the location. Fauble said it doesn’t have a name yet, but the priority of that project is putting the stripes down on it.

Holocaust survivor Lowenberg speaks about faith, peace, hate

By Bridget Bittmann Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Martin Lowenberg, a Holocaust survivor shared his personal experiences from World War II, and emphasized the importance of ridding the world of hate to bring peace on Wednesday in Plachta Auditorium.

“Why must we hate?

Why must we see other people as being different?”

Lowenberg said. “Are we so different? No, we are not.”

Lowenberg had experienced hate and torture first-hand during World War II. When Nazis took over his home, he was forced into a ghetto in Latvia for several years, before being transferred to multiple concentration camps.

11th Nazis madeAnnual him work long days and gave him

hardly any food. He was forced to participate in a “death march,” with no break for four days and nights straight.

“I know what torture is because I have been tortured, tortured as a young boy, tortured as a young fellow, tortured for four years in a concentration camp,” Lowenberg said.

However, for him, torture began long before the war.

In 1936, Lowenberg’s grade school teacher accused him of sticking out his tongue at Hitler’s picture. The teacher told all the boys in class to beat him up, and forced him to sit on a board covered in thumb tacks.

He said this happened because he was Jewish.

After that, Lowenberg said he was sent away to a boarding school where he saw his family once in two

nacht, on Nov. 8, 1938.

Lowenberg said he can still see the synagogues burning in his mind.

When the war hit, his family, which comprised of his mom, dad, two older sisters and younger twin brothers, was separated.

One of Lowenberg’s sisters immigrated to the U.S. with a family she was a nanny for.

LIFE IN BRIEF

He believes his parents would have died in the same village he was born in, if it had not been for the war. Instead, their ashes lay scattered throughout Auschwitz, along with his twin brothers.

Brighton sophomore Audrey Hiselman said hearing Lowenberg’s twin brothers had died at age six was hard.

“They didn’t live to grow up, have another birthday, have another photo taken…

To see your entire world just collapse before your eyes and have everything change so drastically, I can’t imagine it,” Hiselman said.

Today, Lowenburg and his two older sisters live in the U.S. After moving to America, he got married and had three daughters.

Today, he has eleven greatgrandchildren.

Throughout his life, and especially when he was stuck in concentration camps, Lowenburg’s faith in God remained strong.

He believes we all have the same God, and questions why people hate based on the premise of religion.

“Why? Why can’t we live in peace?” Lowenburg said. “Why can’t we live in harmony?”

Lowenberg said the number-one part of bringing peace to the world is having faith. Second, people must reach out to those in need, those who are sick, and those who are hurting. Then, one day they might find peace and eliminate hate.

Faculty member chosen to advise Michigan governor

By Rachael Yadlowsky Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Gov. Rick Snyder appointed a Central Michigan University environmental science professor to be one of nine members on the Environmental Science Advisory Board.

The advisory board, created by Michigan Act 269, is a new addition to state government. The act was approved by Snyder on June 28, 2018, and created within the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget.

Section 2609 of the act states, “the board shall advise the governor and any state office, agency, or department specified by the governor on issues affecting the protection of the environment or the management of natural resources of this state. The board’s duty to provide advice is limited to the specific advice requested from time to time by the governor.”

Lawrence Lemke, professor of hydrogeology, environmental modeling and geostatistics is one of the newest additions to the board.

Lemke has been studying and researching the presence and transportation of contaminants that are in the underground water, soil and air for 15 years. He has been the chair of the CMU Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences for three years.

Lemke said that he was nominated for a seat on the board and applied to the seat afterward.

“I was so excited when I first heard that I was appointed to the board,” Lemke said.

“It’s going to be good science leading to better environmental policies. This board allows good scientists, like myself, to contribute to sound environmental decision making.”

Lemke said although he hasn’t attended a meeting yet, the board usually meets between six to eight times per year, depending on when the governor calls a meeting. During the meeting, the only topic being discussed will be the one that the governor called the meeting for.

WRECK YOUR STRESS TO RAISE MONEY FOR LISTENING EAR IN MOUNT PLEASANT “Wreck Your Stress” will allow students to take out their mid-semester stress on smashable food items.

Participants can smash various items fron 6-8 p.m., Tuesday, Nov. 13 in Finch Fieldhouse to raise money for Listening Ear, a nonprofit organization based in Mount Pleasant.

According to its website, Listening Ear “offers hope and opportunity by listening to, supporting and advocating for people who need quality services and safe, affordable housing.”

Listening Ear serves more than 30,000 people annually, and provides 24-hour crisis services for 200 people across mid and northern Michigan.

Jenna Mcdonnell, the event’s organizer, said the charity was chosen because it helps people of all ages, and because it’s local.

“We liked all the services that Listening Ear provides and want to make students of Central aware of what this organization does,” she said. “The main goal of the event is to raise awareness and funds for the services that Listening Ear provides. Our second goal is to help students relieve stress in a healthy and fun way.”

The cost of the smashable items are: • $2 for an egg • $3 for a tomato • $5 for a pumpkin There will also be a bake sale at the event.

Prices range from $1 to $3.

The event is sponsored by the department of recreation, parks and leisure services administration.

have an expertise in one or more of the following studies: • Engineering • Environmental science • Economics • Chemistry • Geology • Physics • Biology • Human Medicine • Statistics • Risk assessment Lemke believes his past research and ongoing research of tracking contaminants in water, soil and air, and the effects it has on human health, could be a valuable asset to the board.

“I believe my research can help because I’ve spent so many years doing it,” Lemke said. “I’m able to identify what kind of contaminants are in underground aquifers, or if there are harmful metals in the soil that are getting into the crops.”

Along with Lemke’s research, he is an environmental modeler. This means that through research he is able to map out the distribution of contaminants, including metals in the soil and dust or pollution in the air. He is also able to create models of environmental

conditions that will affect other environments in the future.

Lemke said one issue that he would like to address is the presence of per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in more than 30 Michigan locations. A recent water quality report in August 2017 showed that Mount Pleasant was one of those locations.

According to a Central Michigan Life article about the local PFAS contamination, it’s a type of chemical in the PFAS family that has been used to make a variety of products including fire suppression systems and products by Teflon and Scotchgard.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports long-term exposure to PFAS can cause pregnancy complications, liver damage, thyroid disease and cancer.

According to the article, the contaminated site in Mount Pleasant is no longer in use, but many locations in Michigan might still be contaminated.

“I think worrying about our Great Lakes is important as well, but I feel that we need to get a handle on cleaning our water and focusing on water quality the most,” Lemke said.

Lemke and the rest of the board will advise the governor-elect Gretchen Whitmer.

Lemke’s term on the board will end in 2020.

A hateful message was written on a whiteboard hanging on a residence hall door in Sweeney on the evening of Nov. 7.

The message, which was shared on social media by three young, hurt students is unacceptable. To the three women involved who had to endure this senseless personal attack: Please know that we stand with you. We believe you. We support you.

We, the student body of Central Michigan University, condemn this behavior. We will all do everything we can to make sure you and all other students feel safe, included and accepted on campus.

In response to the hateful message, President Bob Davies sent a message to everyone on campus.

“Many leaders, offices and teams across campus are involved in investigating this, determining our next steps and supporting those affected and our entire university community,” Davies’ email read.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of cameras throughout residences halls, it will be difficult to find the perpetrator. We urge the person who wrote the comment to come forward, accept responsibility and learn from your mistake.

Simply not engaging in hateful and racist behavior is not enough.

Being a bystander and allowing people to treat others with hate is just as bad as doing it yourself.

If you know who wrote this comment, please contact the Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity at ocrie@cmich.edu or (989) 774-3253.

Unless we confront issues such as this, this behavior will continue.

We need to come together, as Chippewas, and fight against hatred and racism.

We already have the technology for 100 percent renewable energy — so why aren’t we using it efficiently?

If you were told there was a way to simultaneously save millions of lives, prevent the spending of trillions of dollars, create millions of new jobs, and stop global warming and air pollution, would you support it?

Well there is a way, and it’s through converting the world to clean, 100 percent renewable energy sources, which is possible to achieve within the next 20 to 40 years, according to Stanford News.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), set up by the United Nations (UN), recently released a report that explicitly concluded climate change is real and human activity is the main cause.

If we don’t initiate some real change soon, the world’s climate could look very different by as soon as 2030.

According to The Ocean Conservancy Inc., humans have caused approximately 1 degree celsius of global warming to date and any more than 1.5°C can have extreme resulting changes.

It will take a massive global effort, more aggressive than any current strategies, to combat warming any higher than 1.5°C, according to Vox. Perhaps the mere 100 companies that are actually contributing to the majority of climate change should be more strongly

regulated and required to implement changes to help save our future.

I’m sure I am not the only one who has heard the warnings to recycle, not to use straws, to take shorter showers, that every individual must make a change to help the environment. We can all make this effort but truth is, it’s the big, powerful corporations that are mostly at fault when it comes to our changing climate.

According to The Carbon Majors Report (PDF), just 100 companies are at fault for 71% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions since 1988 – the year the IPCC was established. This report also discovered that over half of these emissions can be linked to only 25 corporate and state-owned entities.

The highest emitting, investorowned companies among these being ExxonMobil, Shell, BP and Chevron.

If fossil fuels are emitted at the same rate they have been since 1988, global temperatures could rise up to 4°C. Re-

These companies are not only poisoning our atmosphere but are risking extremely large sums of money (more than $2.2 trillion) pursuing resources such as coal, oil and gas that may become worthless should international

action be taken to combat global warming, according to The Guardian.

And why should we continue killing time, money, and our precious planet when we already have the technology for 100 percent renewable energy? In fact, most of the world could switch to 100 percent renewable energy by 2050, according to The Conversation.

This would create millions of jobs, save lives that could be lost as a result of air pollution, and avoid 1.5°C of warming. The main issue is the political and societal will to implement these clean energy changes.

The scale of effort to achieve this change has been compared to that of the moon landings. But did we not achieve that phenomenon when the world still believed it to be a dream of science-fiction? It is possible to start saving our planet’s climate and it’s time we take action to make it happen.

Before too long, our world will face the disastrous consequences of the path we are currently on. Do you have the will to push society and politicians to work toward these changes or are you willing to sacrifice our beautiful planet to avoid a little activism?

Climate change is real and we have the power to stop it. Will you be a part of the solution?

The troubling way white Americans respond to racist claims A few weeks ago, Megyn Kelly was essentially fired for defending blackface.

She asked, “But what is racist (about blackface)?” and then said, “Back when I was a kid (blackface) was OK, as long as you were dressing up as, like, a character.” She then went on with her show accusing people of being overly sensitive.

My dad is 53 years old. I asked him if when he was younger if any kids ever went out on Halloween in blackface. He sounded taken back by the question, almost angry I would ask a stupid question like that. He said, “No. What the hell is wrong with you.

No one did. Who the hell do you know going out like that?”

Kelly is 47 years old. She should know better.

What was shocking is that I finally realized a disturbing way we, as white Americans, deal with discussions of race.

Most white Americans, when confronted with the reality that some-

Elio Stante Columnist

thing might be racist or intolerant, our first instinct is to push back. Like Kelly, one of our default defenses is “appealing to tradition”. The idea that because at one point something was allowable, it’s always been acceptable.

The problem here is that we no understanding of history. Through the faults of our education system or the community we grew up in we never learn the origins of these “traditions” or practices.

Take blackface as the example.

Blackface was used in minstrel shows. These shows portrayed African-Americans as lazy, stupid, jolly and subservient to white people.

They were used for entertaining white audiences by demeaning and creating

disgusting stereotypes of AfricanAmericans that served to reinforce the sub-human position African-Americans had in society at the time.

We get the name Jim Crow, not from the segregated society of Southern states, but from an 1828 minstrel show called “Jump Jim Crow.” The show was created and performed by Thomas Rice, a white man, in blackface.

These minstrel shows gave us the racist mammy, darky, dandy and mulatto caricatures of African Americans. These caricatures are not gone. They still exist in movies, TV shows and music.

This is where blackface in America started and where its legacy is now.

To millions of Americans, it’s a reminder of an overtly racist past that was openly hostile to them.

This is what white Americans, like myself, struggle with. We don’t know the history of many of the most racist and bigoted aspects of our society, leaving us unable to trace those overtly racist problems into the

present to confront them. Because we don’t understand the history, when we’re confronted, like Kelly was, about the racism of blackface, we step back and then push back. We might even argue that it’s just people being overly sensitive, like Kelly did.

We’ll blame political correctness or an overactive sensitivity. We don’t listen. We just try to come up with an excuse to shift the blame or absolve ourselves.

That’s the other problem. We’ll listen, but only until we are confronted, then we try to dismiss the issue and nothing is accomplished. We don’t try to learn why something is harmful, or bigoted.

What’s wrong with just shutting up and listening?

Are we, white Americans, really so sensitive to the truth of history that we won’t at least try?

We don’t always have to defend ourselves and get offended. We can try to understand another point of view.

“You’re too pretty.”

“Can you get me a coffee?”

“Will you take notes?”

“Are you sure?”

These are a few examples of what female members of Central Michigan University’s STEM faculty referred to as “micro-aggressive” comments. They talked about micro-aggressions and discrimination that women in science, technology, engineering and math experience during a panel discussion Nov. 8 in Anspach 162.

Professors used the term “micro-aggressive” to describe comments others say with a double-meaning, usually meant as stereotypes or put-downs.

The Society for Women in STEM hosted the panel, which featured six female STEM faculty members who spoke about their experiences and gave advice to those in attendance.

The difference in treatment of men and women can be small, but however

minute these differences are, they can speak volumes.

“My husband is also a professor here, and CMU sends us mail and addresses him as ‘Dr.’ and me as ‘Miss,’ despite me having a Ph.D.,” physics faculty member Veronica Barone said.

Despite having different experiences, all professors agreed that diversity and representation of not just different genders, but different races, ethnicities, religions and backgrounds is crucial in STEM. “These (diverse) groups tend to be more successful and reach a broader audience,” geography & environmental studies faculty member Stacey Kerr said.

The way Kerr sees it, an increase in diversity benefits everyone. “A rising tide lifts all boats,” she said.

The current underrepresentation of women in STEM isn’t due to a lack of interest amongst women.

“Retaining women in these fields isn’t the problem.

Keeping women in STEM is the issue,” chemistry and biochemistry faculty member Janice Tomasik said.

Redford senior Renee Renauer believes one of the reasons so many women pick up STEM degrees, but stop fully pursuing their careers is because of family. “(Women) feel the need of keeping the family together,” Renauer said.

Professors offered possible solutions and advice for those interested in pursuing careers in STEM. Kerr said one of the best things to do when going into STEM is to be informed.

“Know when you are jobsearching what are the wages of the company you’re going into,” Kerr said. She encourages women to not be afraid to counter first offers.

“Apply for promotions,” computer science faculty member Lisa Gandy said. Despite the times Gandy felt too inexperienced to apply for grants, she did it anyway and didn’t let her fears dissuade her.

“Don’t give up. Don’t forget your goals,” biology faculty member Michelle Steinhilb said. However, she understands that goals can sometimes change, and it’s important to go with your gut.

Duncan had just returned from eating dinner at Merrill Residential Restaurant; her roommate, Detroit senior Helen Egwu was at Sweeney Hall’s council meeting and her other roommate, Detroit sophomore Rebecca Rose, was attending the opening night of a theater production.

Duncan took a photo of the phrase on the whiteboard, erased it and sent the photo to her roommates and told them to come home immediately.

When Egwu, Sweeney Hall’s inclusion assistant, arrived, she suggested Sweeney Residence Hall Director Tim Popma get involved. He met the women at their room and asked if they wanted to contact the police.

Rose said she didn’t receive the photo from Duncan initially and returned home to see a police car outside Sweeney Hall.

“Immediately there was this feeling (when I walked into my room) like somebody had died,” Rose said.

By noon Nov. 8, Central Michigan University President Robert Davies, the Office of LGBTQ Services and the CMU chapter of the NAACP released statements on the incident.

“I assure you racism, misogyny, bigotry and hatred will not be tolerated on this campus,” Davies’ email read. “Many leaders, offices and teams across campus are involved in investigating this, determining our next steps and supporting those affected and our entire university community.”

Davies also met with the students to discuss what action should be taken in the coming days.

Duncan said CMU’s Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity has reached out to the women and will investigate the situation and that the CMU police department will, as well. Interviews will take place between those who live in the hall and CMUPD and camera footage of the residence hall entryways, exits and staircases will be reviewed.

Tony Voisin, associate vice president of Student Affairs, said cameras are not allowed in residence hall hallways due to privacy laws.

Duncan said the officer who responded to the complaint was helpful in explaining that the situation would best be investigated by CMU’s Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity, but didn’t help in trying to comfort the women.

Duncan said he didn’t want to leave until the women had said everything they wanted to say, so she told the officer she wasn’t surprised the incident happened, but she was surprised the incident happened where she lived. He responded by saying he understood what it’s like to have to develop thick skin, as he has received threats for being a police officer.

“Helen said ‘I’m sorry to interrupt you. I mean no offense, but I’m black. I cannot take that off,’” Duncan said. “’You can take your badge off every single day and nobody will know you’re a police officer.

But every day I walk around with my skin and that’s means for someone to do something demeaning to me.”

The officer apologized. CMU Chief of Police Bill Yeagley also apologized. Yeagley said the interaction could have gone differently, but that other than the comment that was made, he felt as though the situation was handled as well as possible.

“Is (the message) a crime?”

Yeagley said. “No.” He elaborated, saying the message doesn’t fit Michigan’s definition of a hate crime or ethnic intimidation.

“Just because it isn’t a crime

doesn’t mean it’s OK,” Yeagley said. “Somebody knows who did this and we need to hold (the perpetrator) accountable according to (CMU) policies.”

These guidelines, Voisin said, are outlined by OCRIE as the university’s nondiscrimination policy and equal opportunity and affirmative action protocol.

The breach of policy was felt heavily by the three women: the message on their whiteboard held a degree of racism they had never experienced.

“Initially I didn’t know what to feel,” Rose said. “I’ve experienced judgment before, not so much discrimination.

More people being hesitant of me because of my color, but I had never experienced blatant racism before.”

Duncan said Egwu had decided to spend time away from home for the day to process the situation.

“I think it hit Helen the hardest because she’s devoted her whole four years to living in Sweeney and she’s really heavily a part of the community, being an inclusion assistant all of her years here,” Rose said.

“It’s her last semester, and having that be the thing that (she) leaves with? I don’t want to speak her story, but that for me felt so much more hurtful than what I was going through.”

The CMU chapter of the NAACP tweeted that it will hold a press conference at 8 p.m. in Sweeney Hall Nov. 8 in response to the incident.

However, the sit-in was organized without the victims’ knowledge.

“People have been telling us there’s going to be a sit-in here and we didn’t even know. I’m a little upset,” Duncan said. “If someone is doing something about something that has happened to me and the people I care about, I’d like to know.”

Rose felt similar, adding that organizing an event in their hall without informing them felt like an ambush.

Despite their hesitation, both Duncan and Rose will attend the sit-in. Duncan

is planning to speak at the event, while Rose intends to attend for support.

Rose said students shouldn’t take a negative message away from the situation.

“Don’t use this as an opportunity to say ‘Central Michigan (University) isn’t for me.’ Use this as motivation to say, ‘This is where I belong. I shouldn’t have to, but I’m going to prove why I belong here,’” she said.

“There are so many more people here that want us to be here than those that don’t. They just need to know that this is here, this is happening.”

Davies said anyone with information should contact CMU’s Office of Civil Rights and Institutional Equity at ocrie@cmich.edu or (989) 774-3253.

COMBATING HATE, D NOV. 12, 2018 | CENTRAL MICHIGAN LIFE | CM-LIFE.COM

NAACP, others make four requests in response to racist whiteboard message

By Dylan Goetz and Teresa Homsi Sports Editor and Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

NAACP chapter President Australyah Coleman made four demands to Central Michigan University in response to the racist messages left on a whiteboard outside a dorm room in Sweeney Hall.

First, she requested each CMU student be required to take a cultural course pertaining to their major or minor. Next, Coleman urged that cameras be placed and used in hallways of residence halls. She later demanded that a certified third party host a race and ethnicity training that would be mandatory for all faculty, staff, students and police.

“We expect these plans to be met or initiated within the next month,” Coleman said. She received a swarm of cheers from the crowd of about 200 people.

Her last request was specific.

Coleman demanded a public apology from the officer that responded to the incident in Sweeney Hall on the night of Nov. 7 by the end of the week — giving the officer a three-day period to apologize for comparing the racist act witnessed to what officers experience every day.

“Of course, the officer we spoke to compared the hate of his badge to our blackness,” Coleman said. “We will not be silenced.”

This demand drew the largest cheer from the crowd.

The protest came after three CMU students found a racist message written on a whiteboard outside of her room Wednesday. Detroit sophomore Yasmeen Duncan took a photo of the message on the whiteboard and alerted her roommates. They alerted the residence hall director and the police about what had happened.

The message on the whiteboard read: “fuck u monkey black whores.”

“If the demands are not met by the time this was given, we will have more protests and rallies and will do whatever it takes to get our demands met,” Coleman said.

CMU President Robert Davies released a statement on the incident in Sweeney Hall at 11:45 a.m.

“I assure you racism, misogyny, bigotry and hatred will not be tolerated on this campus,” the statement said. Davies repeated this statement while speaking at the rally.

Davies also responded to the activist groups’ demands.

“The demands that I heard are reasonable, they’re actually ones that we’ve been working on,” Davies told Central Michigan Life. “It is important that we do have curricular components to all the majors that support diversity and inclusion.”

The Central Michigan University chapter of the NAACP, Black Student Union and CACU organized a protest in support of the individuals affected.

to come up with a solution,” NAACP Student Government Association Representative Patrick Riley said.

“Sadly, it had to come from this, but I think it’s important that moving forward we come together as a student body – not as white CMU, black CMU or multicultural CMU — we come together as a student body and we work toward making change.”

The rally opened with Black Student Union President Monet Robinson clarifying that the event was a peaceful protest.

“We need to be able to express ourselves and be heard in the correct way so that we can reach out further,” Robinson said.

Sterling Heights junior Alysha Lewis also said the demands were reasonable, should be met and can be met.

“Change needs to come to CMU’s campus,” she said.

“I hope that justice gets served for the women that this happened to.”

Students exchange views on tolerance during discussion Center for Inclusion and Diversity holds student discussion in response to the Nov. 7 Sweeney Hall incident

By Isaac Ritchey Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Small groups of Central Michigan University students, staff and faculty gathered on the lower floor of the University Center to discuss the racist, misogynistic comment found Nov. 7 in Sweeney Hall.

The Brown Bag and Discussion started just after 12 p.m. inside CMU’s Center for Inclusion and Diversity Nov. 9. The informal discussion was organized by National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at CMU (NCAAP) President Australyah Coleman, NAACP Vice President Grant Williams and Collective Action for Cultural Unity (CACU) President Areauna Rogers.

The discussion was in response to both the hateful words written on a whiteboard outside three women’s dorm room and the responding police officer’s later comments relating his badge to the students’ skin color, said Elayashia Kendall,

NAACP inclusion adviser.

Chicago senior Julio Velasco, a peer adviser for Multicultural Academic Student Services, said he was not surprised by the incident.

“I have been here for four years,” Velasco said. “Something like this occurs at least one time a year.”

Chief Diversity Officer A.T. Miller said, for many students, it brought very serious forms of racism often only seen “out in the world” to campus.

At the forum, Coleman and Rogers reiterated NAACP’s four demands to the university, which were introduced at a Nov. 8 rally.

The NAACP demands: • CMU require all students to take a cultural course pertaining to their major or minor.

• Cameras placed and used in hallways of residence halls.

• A certified third party host a race and ethnicity training mandatory for all faculty, staff, students and police.

• A formal, public apology from the police officer who responded Nov. 7.

Quinn Kirby | Features Editor People converse on Nov. 9 in the Center for Inclusion and Diversity before “Brown Bag and Discussion.”

Coleman said she would like to see the solutions to these demands in motion by the end of the month.

Miller said he has no problem with the NAACP’s demands, stating many students are already taking a cultural course pertaining to their major and that in the fall students will be required to take two University Program courses regarding ethnicity and culture. He also said race and ethnicity training could be made more effective.

Miller did however, have some concerns about NAACP demanding the officer to apologize publicly. He and others said giving the officer a deadline to apologize does not motivate the officer to respond sincerely.

Miller said Chief of Police Bill Yeagley did sit down with the

women to apologize on behalf of the police department.

Velasco said he believes the officer was trying to be genuine and considerate, but there is definitely a disconnect between CMU officers and students of color.

“At the end of the day, (police officers) can take off their badge, take off their guns. They can go somewhere where no one knows they are a police officer,” Velasco said. “If you’re a person of color, you can’t take off your skin.”

Rather than having the police officer publicly apologize, Miller suggested the NAACP moderate a conversational dialogue between the three women and police officer, informing him of what offended them and what he could do next time to avoid this.

“We did learn a lesson through this about trying to be empathetic,” Miller said. “It’s like, if someone says their mom died, you don’t say, ‘Oh, I remember when my mother died.’”

After small group discussions, each group was given a chance to share what they had discussed.

Many groups expressed the idea that students, especially students who do not identify directly with groups affected in any circumstance of bigotry, must be taught how to effectively stand in solidarity with the groups that do. “(CMU) needs to start telling (prejudiced students) that they may be welcome here, but their ideals violating this school’s rules against racist and sexist acts are not,” Beecher senior Kevin Wilson said.

Proposal for local police oversight to be received by city commission

By Ashley Schafer Community Editor news@cm-life.com

A group of concerned community members and students presented a proposal to implement citizen oversight of local police to the Mount Pleasant City Commission, who will formally receive it on Nov. 12.

A call to action was shared via Facebook post about 10 p.m. on Nov. 7 by Central Michigan University alumna Autumn Gairaud, ask-

ing people to attend the meeting.

“We need a large, positive showing of supporters at the city commission meeting,” her post stated.

According to Gairaud’s post, Community Action for Black Lives Matter of Mid-Michigan — a project of the Mount Pleasant Area Diversity Group — has been working toward getting a proposal in front of city commission.

A proposal was submitted to the commission on Nov. 6 by the the Mount Pleasant Area Diversity Group outlining details about the

proposal, which calls for the creation of a Citizens Advisory Board (CAB).

The CAB’s purpose would be to “improve communication between the police agencies and the community,” “create a process to provide transparency and accountability of police actions” and “to enhance police credibility with the public.”

“Across the country, we have seen too many cases of police misconduct with no accountability,” Gairaud’s post stated. “What can citizens do in our own communities to ensure that police agencies

are interrupting patterns of bias and responding effectively to citizen complaints?”

The functions of the board would include strengthening the relationship between police and the community by overseeing complaints made to city police agencies.

It would be composed of three members — one appointed by city commission, one appointed by the Student Government Association at CMU and the third appointed by the Mount Pleasant Area Diversity Group.

The Mount Pleasant Area Diver-

sity Group is a local group committed to “actively challenging the obstacles that inhibit the community’s ability to respect, value and be sensitive to diversity,” according to its website.

The group requests that the Mount Pleasant City Commission formally receives the proposal, then take the appropriate steps to consider, revise and act on the proposal.

The next commission meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 12 at City Hall, located at 320 W. Broadway St.

Davis earns 100th win in 101-60 victory in McGuirk

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

Central Michigan men’s basketball coach Keno Davis walked into the post game press conference with his shirt in a darker shade of blue than it was designed to be.

“I promise this isn’t sweat,” he said. “They gave me a shower in the locker room.”

In the Chippewas (2-0) 101-60 victory over Chicago State (0-3), Davis marked his 100th win as the head coach in his sixth season with the program.

“The game-winning shots like Marcus Keene against Western (Michigan) is what the fans remember,” Davis said. “I think about the times when I first got here when we were trying to do everything we could just to scrape away a win. It’s enjoyable to be able to be here each and every day with the high character we have.”

Davis has produced four consecutive seasons winning records. Overall, he has

a 100-97 record with the Chippewas.

The victory over the Cougars was the second consecutive victory for the Chippewas by 20 points or more this season.

HOW IT HAPPENED With the game tied at 5-5 to start things off, sophomore guard Matt Beachler had a steal and score plus a 3-pointer that sparked a 14-0 run and produced a 19-5 CMU advantage.

Transfer guard Dallas Morgan got a steal and flipped the ball off the glass to fellow transfer guard Larry Austin Jr. for an alley-oop. He was called for a technical foul, but CMU lead 29-11 with less than 10 minutes to play in the half.

Austin said the refs told him he slapped the glass after the dunk, which he denied doing.

After building a 61-32 halftime advantage, CMU picked up right where they left off in the second half.

Morgan and Austin both found buckets through traffic

to help force a CSU timeout and extend CMU’s lead to 7438 with 11 minutes remaining.

For the second straight game, CMU didn’t have to look back after leading to start the game.

The story of CMU’s offense was its bench which totaled 52 points for the game (51.4 percent of the teams scoring). Leading that group was Beachler who totaled a career-high 16 points. Morgan had 10 points and transfer guard Romelo Burrell added 11 points. Austin led the team with 17 tallies and just missed a double-double with nine assists.

“We have a lot of good guards this year and they all look up when they run the floor and find you in transition,” Beachler said.

CMU held CSU to 12.5 percent (2-of-16) from beyond the arc and forced 22 turnovers compared to just nine turnovers of their own.

The Chippewas will be back in action when they head to the Bimini, Bahamas at 6 p.m. on Nov. 15 against CSU Bakersfield.

Women’s basketball’s Bradford returns to Central Michigan

By Evan Petzold Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

When Crystal Bradford stepped on the court at McGuirk Arena a few hours prior to Central Michigan’s season-opener, the feeling of nostalgia kicked in.

She immediately thought of her game winning 3-pointer against Dayton as a junior.

Teammate Taylor Johnson tripped near half court with four seconds left and flung the ball as she was falling to Bradford, who launched the shot from the top of the key for a 94-91 victory.

“We were down nine points with 1:30 left in the game,” Bradford remembered. “We came back, and I had the gamewinner on Taylor’s trip.”

Bradford’s return came as a surprise to coach Sue Guevara. Assistant coach Heather Oesterle was the only one who knew of the homecoming. She successfully kept the secret.

Guevara was astonished, and quickly embraced Bradford.

Bradford is undoubtedly the best player to ever come from the CMU women’s basketball program.

The 6-foot guard was selected No. 7 overall in the 2015 WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks and is currently playing overseas in Israel for Bnot Hertzeliya.

“Overseas life is very tough,” Bradford explained.

“It’s tough, but it’s fun.

You’ll miss your family, but the most important thing is to stay mentally tough.

“I went through every emotion, but I’m enjoying the ride.”

While playing for the Chippewas from 2011-15, Bradford did more than succeed; she created a legacy for herself and helped put CMU women’s basketball on a nationwide map.

Bradford, 25, finished her CMU career as the all-time

leader in points with 2,006, rebounds with 1,140, field goals made with 805 and blocks with 177. She was the first player in program history to be selected in the WNBA. “It was a family,” Bradford said of her time at CMU. “We ate together at the same table. It’s humbling to be back where I put in work. I remember running up and down this court.”

The Inkster High School product led the Chippewas in scoring and rebounds with 14.2 and 8.4, respectively, as a freshman.

She averaged a career-high 20.3 points, 12.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game as a junior. She earned the 2014 MAC Player of the Year award and won a gold medal while representing Team USA at the 2013 World University Games in Kazan, Russia.

Led by Guevara, CMU taught Bradford consistency, discipline and work ethic. Guevara and Oesterle put in time at practice, in the film room and on recruiting trips, which motivated Bradford to do the same on the court.

Bradford’s hard work first paid off when her 2012-13 Chippewas won the Mid-American Conference tournament title, earning a bid to the NCAA Tournament.

The historic season was the first time since 1984 that CMU made the NCAA Tournament, and it set a precedent for future teams in Mount Pleasant – like CMU’s 2017-18 team that went 30-4 overall and appeared in the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16.

“It’s a win for me that Team 50 won a championship,” Bradford said of CMU’s 2013 postseason run. “It shows we helped set that up with the culture. The culture continually brings good players here. It doesn’t matter the size of our school.”

Of all the memories and moments as a Chippewa, Bradford’s favorite was

Ben Suddendorf | Staff Photographer Alumna Crystal Bradford and head coach Sue Guevara hug on the court after being reunited on Nov. 8 at McGuirk Arena.

when Guevara won the MAC Tournament championship and let out a joyful scream.

“She was finally yelling in excitement and not at me,” Bradford said with a laugh. “Seeing her cut down the net was my most memorable moment. It was a family.”

Unlike when she was in college, Bradford now takes the court to make money, and every game is a financial commodity.

“I miss them taking care of us in college,” Bradford said. “You have to capitalize to make money (in the pros). Even the girls that went to UConn that are in the WNBA, they don’t get the privileges like private jets and stuff.”

Central Michigan is now entering its fifth season without Bradford on the roster, and the former superstar guard hopes for someone to shatter her historic statistics in the near future.

“Now that I’m older, the goal is for someone to come in and crunch my records,” Bradford said with a smile.

CMU loses 10th game, worst season in program history

By Evan Petzold Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Bowling Green defensive end Karl Brooks poked the ball free from Central Michigan running back Romello Ross, and his teammate, Kyle Junior, picked it up for a oneyard scoop and score.

Junior’s defensive score put the nail in the coffin, handing the Chippewas (1-10, 0-7 MAC) their first 10 loss season in program history, which dates back to 1896.

Led by coach John Bonamego, CMU was unable to keep up with the Falcons (2-8, 1-5 MAC) in a 24-13 loss on Nov. 10 at Kelly/ Shorts Stadium.

"Obviously disappointed with the loss," Bonamego said. "I apologize to our seniors. Very, very, very disappointed."

The Chippewas have not won against a Division I Football Bowl Subdivision opponent in 351 days, while the Falcons snapped a 375-day FBS losing streak of their own with the 11-point victory on Saturday.

"My job is on the line every day, every week, every year," Bonamego said after the loss regarding his job status.

Early in the contest, CMU’s momentum stemmed from the successes of redshirt freshman quarterback Austin Hergott, who earned his first career start against the Falcons.

For his first career passing score, Hergott dropped back in the pocket, set his feet, threw the ball to the corner of the end zone and took a massive blow.

Rising up from the ground, Hergott tossed his arms up in celebration. The ball was hauled in by redshirt freshman receiver Julian Hicks for a 30-yard touchdown, giving Central Michigan a 13-0 lead just before halftime.

The Falcons quickly dissolved their deficit once the second half began.

Through 109 seconds of play near the start of the second half, Bowling Green surged for a 14-13 edge on a two-yard completion from quarterback Jarret Doege to tight end Dorian Hendrix. The touchdown was set up by a recovered pooch kick off the leg of kicker Nate Needham.

"After a very good first half, we let them off the hook," Bonamego said. "Then, we weren't able to get anything going offensively. Everyone deserves better."

Doege controlled his team’s

offense, completing 13-of-23 passes for 113 yards and one touchdown.

His top receiver, Scott Miller, did not score but produced 73 yards against CMU’s secondary with ease.

Bowling Green found the end zone on the drive prior thanks to a converted fake punt, which kept the series alive.

Facing a 4th-and-two from its own 47-yard line, Bowling Green tight end Dorian Hendrix took a direct snap and went 24 yards for a first down at the CMU 29. On the ensuing play, running back Andrew Clair broke loose for a 29-yard score, cutting the Falcons’ deficit to six points.

"Special teams were a big disappointment," CMU's fourthyear coach added. "The fake punt extended a drive and led to a score.

We missed a tackle on that play, and they executed."

Needham’s 20-yard field goal put the Falcons up by four points with 5:15 remaining in the third, and Junior’s scoop and score sealed the deal at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

Hergott finished 11-of-21 through the air for 94 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Bonamego

said throughout the week both Hergott and fellow quarterback Tony Poljan would play. Instead, it was all Hergott in the loss.

"Some good, some bad," Bonamego said of Hergott's performance. "We are just trying to compete and win a game. The experience that Austin is getting is very good. He's shown a lot of poise and made some good plays."

For the first time in the 2018 season, junior running back Jonathan Ward found the end zone for a 7-0 lead with 7:29 remaining in the first half. A year ago, he accumulated nearly 1,500 allpurpose yards and 13 touchdowns.

Following a 13-yard performance, Ward now has 76 carries for 212 yards and one touchdown this season.

Bowling Green’s only first half opportunity came on a 42-yard field goal try from Nate Needham, but his kick was blocked by Sean Bunting.

The Chippewas do not play next weekend due to a bye but return on Nov. 23 in a road matchup against Toledo for the final game of the season.

JUNIOR FORWARD OUT WITH ANKLE INJURY WILL LIKELY SIT IN NOV. 15 GAME Junior transfer forward Kevin Hamlet is not expected to play in the Central Michigan men’s basketball game against CSU Bakersfield on Nov. 15.

The 6-foot-7 forward was not dressed and did not play in the season opener against KEVIN HAMLET Concordia on Nov. 6 or on Nov. 9 against Chicago State. Coming into the season, head coach Keno Davis said he was expected to compete for minutes in a rotation with the other big men.

“I don’t believe he will be ready,” Davis said. “I haven’t got any official

words but I would say he is unlikely to play.”

Davis mentioned after the Chippewas 98-67 victory over Concordia that Hamlet had rolled his ankle in practice a few days before.

Hamlet averaged 8.3 points and 4.8 rebounds in 31 minutes per game last season with Mineral Area College. He did play in the 2018-19 Maroon and Gold game.

Davis gave no timetable for Hamlet’s return.

The Chippewas are off to a 2-0 start to the 2018 season without Hamlet. Their latest win over Chicago State earned Davis’ 100th win at CMU. -Andrew McDonald, Staff Reporter

CHIPPEWAS END VOLLEYBALL SEASON WITH LOSS AT WESTERN MICHIGAN

The Central Michigan women’s volleyball team closed out the 2018 season in a painfully familiar way — with another loss.

The Chippewas traveled to Kalamazoo hoping to salvage a victory over Western Michigan University but were defeated by their rival 3-1 Saturday night. CMU finished the season 7-21 overall and 4-12 in the MAC.

RECAP After falling behind 3-0 in the first set, CMU went on a six-point run. The set would go back and forth until the Broncos eventually prevailed 25-22. The second set would play out much like the first, with both teams trading points and WMU getting the win.

The Chippewa’s came to life with their season on the brink of concluding. Down 24-20 in the third set, CMU scored four straight points and held on to win the set 31-29. The Broncos never trailed in the

fourth set, winning soundly by a margin of 25-16.

STATS The most notable stat from the match can be credited to WMU senior Mary Murphy who tallied 50 assists. The Chippewa’s recorded 50 assists as a team.

Murphy ends her career as the Bronco’s all-time leader in assists with 4,500.

CMU’s Kalina Smith led all players with 17 kills. Savannah Thompson contributed with 13 kills of her own and 19 digs. The Chippewa’s hitting percentage was .193.

The Bronco’s offense was a balanced attack. Rachel Bontrager and Sammi LaBolle notched 14 kills while Janell Williams chipped in with 12. Bontrager showcased her versatility, also recording five blocks and 11 digs. LaBolle’s hitting percentage was an impressive .500.
