Jane Goodall to speak on campus in March Speaker to be paid more than $60,000

By Emily Pfund Staff Reporter

World-renowned primatologist, anthropologist and conservationist Jane Goodall

will speak at Central Michigan University in March for more than $60,000.

Goodall, 77, is best known for her work studying the chimpanzees of Gombe National Park in Tanzania. She will deliver a speech, “Reasons for Hope: The Way Ahead,” on March 28, 2012 in the Events Center.

Liz Morris, secretary of

the speaker series committee, said funding for Goodall’s visit came from a $60,000, onetime gift from the college Jane Goodall deans and the provost, along with smaller contributions from other de-

partments on campus.

“She’s one of the top researchers or scientists in the world,” said Eric Buschlen, assistant professor of recreation, parks and leisure services, who is on the Academic Senate’s speaker series committee.

The speech will focus on changes in the world Goodall has witnessed personally and

professionally over that last 50 years, how those changes affect humans, animals and the environment, and how humans should proceed over the next 50 years.

The committee contacted Goodall this summer and invited her to CMU. “We knew we had received A goodall | 2a

Off-campus spring enrollment nearly 10 percent higher

Panel to address sexuality issues Tuesday

Central Michigan University’s off-campus enrollment is on the rise for the third consecutive year, according to the Office of the Registrar.

From 2009 to 2010, offcampus spring enrollment has increased by more than 9.5 percent, from 7,445 to 8,312 students.

Online Programs Manager Marnie Roestel said the main reason for the spike is because many adults are going back to school for a college degree to increase skills, marketability and secure jobs.

Besides online, CMU has more than 60 other off-campus locations around the nation.

CMU is a convenient option for many working students, Roestel said.

“New program offerings added to our menu in the past three years have increased interest in taking programs online and therefore enrollments,” Roestel said.

Spring registration begins Monday. ProfEd, externally known as CMU Off-Campus and Online Programs, expects a continued increase for the upcoming semester.

“The steady increase in enrollments has resulted in further action by ProfEd to ensure student success and learning along with the support of highly-qualified faculty,” Roestel said.

The off-campus student is typically a working adult with family responsibilities, and tend to range in age from 25 to 55 with an average age of 38, she said.

“We are seeing a noted increase in younger students as online grows,” Roestel said.

Milford junior Lauren Schneider took JRN 350: Public Relations Principles and Practices as a prerequisite for her major. She said the course was easy, but frustrating.

By Mike Nichols | Senior Reporter

A cardboard sign held by unemployed Dearborn resident Joe Michnuk summarized the message of Occupy Detroit: “It’s not one thing — it’s everything.”

Around these words, Michnuk’s daughter Jacque had written the major issues that sparked the protests in Grand Circus Park in downtown Detroit last weekend.

The words “unemployment,” “corporations,” “banks,” “war,” “corruption,” “health care,” “lobbyists” and more were written in orange marker, highlighting the many different reasons why they had come.

The wave of recent national protests started with Occupy Wall Street on Sept. 17. The New York event consisted of protests and marches against the financial system and corporate influence, with the event centered in Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park.

Students looking for an interactive and open environment to discuss current issues about sexual orientation and gender identity will find one Tuesday.

Speak Up, Speak Out will run from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Bovee University Center Auditorium. The forum will ask a variety of questions dealing with the way the Central Michigan University LGBTQ community treats members.

“We always get requests for dealing with sexism and homophobia,” said Merlyn Mowrey, associate professor of philosophy and religion and forum facilitator. “The question is whether we have a hostile or welcoming climate.”

The forum will begin with a brief presentation of new research by professor Mary Senter, director of the Center for Applied Research and Rural studies. Mowrey said the presentations are a maximum of 30 minutes, and the goal is to have the audience talking within an hour of the start time.

“We aren’t there to present, but we want to have some body of information that everyone knows and can draw from,” Mowrey said. “We want to get the audience focused on current events, model critical thinking skills and to show civility in disagreement.”

Mowrey said the forum will consist of five panelists and the average attendance is about 150.

“It’s higher on presidential campaign years. This is our 12th year running these forums, and they’ve been surprisingly successful,” Mowrey said. “The goal is to have something of an old-fashioned town hall meeting. Not the angry ones you’ve been seeing on the news these past years, but the ones where the leaders talk and listen to the community.”

Some alumni enjoy quieter tailgate this year

By David Oltean Senior Reporter and Octavia Carson Staff Reporter

Tailgaters enjoyed beverages and the company of friends Saturday afternoon in Parking Lot 63 and other parking lots surrounding Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

Attendance was high for tailgate over the weekend as a large showing of former Chippewas helped to fill the lot space before the Homecoming game against Eastern Michigan University.

Though the Chippewas may not have fared well against Eastern,

the lot showed signs of hope instead of the usual sparse numbers of tailgaters.

Rochester Hills senior Danny Featherstone spent the Homecoming tailgate in the alumni lot near Rose Pond with his fraternity, Beta Theta Pi. Featherstone said the fraternity tried holding a tailgate in the student lot for the first home game of the year, but it resulted in disappointment.

“I understand restrictions need to be made to keep everyone safe, but they’ve taken it too far for students,” Featherstone said. “We’ve had a lot more fun in the alumni lot than in the stu-

Sturgis resident and Central Michigan University alumnus Adam Simonson said he enjoyed bringing his children to a less rowdy tailgate.

“It’s really great to come back and watch our kids play with each other,” Simonson said. “It’s more responsible.”

Adam’s wife, Emerlyn, said Adam and several of his friends who he played football with at CMU come back every year to tailgate. She said they had all noticed a difference in the atmosphere at this year’s pregame gathering.

“It was easy only because I didn’t have to make time to go to class and assignments were basically due once a week,” Schneider said. “The lack of face-to-face communication made group projects difficult, and I think my grade and overall understanding of the subject matter suffered.”

Schneider and Highland senior Jamie Blake agreed they do not wish to register for more online classes.

“I feel like I didn’t learn anything from the online class,” Blake said.

According to the U.S. Department of Education, CMU is ranked tenth in the nation for granting masters degrees to minority students because of CMU’s Off-Campus and Online Programs.

The new Psychology and Integrated Leadership Studies bachelor programs which were opened off-campus in the fall of 2011 have been well-received and are showing strong growth as well, Roestel said.

According to ProfEd, the current off-campus standard undergraduate tuition is $355 per credit hour, while the main campus rate is $346 per credit hour. The off-campus standard graduate tuition rate is $468 per credit hour, while the main campus rate is $467 per credit hour.

“We are thrilled our students and faculty are leveraging all of CMU’s resources for teaching and learning,” Roestel said, “be it on the Mount Pleasant campus, at our remote campus locations (or) online.”

According to The Guardian, the protests have since spread nationally and internationally to more than 70 major cities and 600 communities, including Lansing, Chicago, Denver, London and Rome.

An Occupy Mount Pleasant event is already being planned on Facebook. Its next meeting to set up a General Assembly is at 7 p.m. Thursday by the pond next to the Charles V. Park Library.

“We’re talking about doing it in two weeks,” said Shepherd resident Lori Cassell. “I think it’s important to show the community we’re coming together.”

Michnuk said everyone at Occupy Detroit came not for one issue, but for many, and said protestors are unified as a voice of discontent.

“I feel the sign means we’re all in this together,” Michnuk said. “Everybody’s got a dog in this fight.”

More than 1,000 began their protests at 4 p.m.

“Central’s tailgating is more family-friendly now and a little more low key,” Emerlyn Simonson said.

Troy sophomore Kaitryn McGaffey said the lot looked more crowded than usual, because of the large alumni showing. McGaffey said she rarely attends the tailgate in Lot 63 and usually spends the time before the game at Main Street, a tradition started by many students after the tailgating policy change in 2009.

“The Homecoming tailgate was really fun this year,” McGaffey said. “I’ve only been to two other tailgates at the lot and it was definitely more crowded than it was last year.”

Featherstone said because of the fence and police presence, many students, especially those under 21, feel intimidated to attend the Lot 63 tailgate. “(The rules) scared everyone away that isn’t 21 because they assume that the cops are going to watch them like a hawk,” Featherstone said. “When there’s only a couple hundred people at the lot, (the police) can tell pretty easily who is 21 and who isn’t.”

But for some students, attending tailgate still isn’t worth their time, even on Homecoming Weekend.

Morris said the committee plans to work with groups like Program Board to show documentaries on campus about Goodall’s work and life in the weeks leading up to her speech.

“It’s so people can get some information about her before

she arrives,” Morris said.

The committee also plans to reach out to area K-12 schools, public libraries and other colleges and universities in Michigan about the event.

“We’re really excited for the opportunity to bring a lot of people to campus and get the name of CMU out there,” Morris said.

Shawn McKeever, a panelist, Mid Michigan Community College student and founder of Transcend, a transgender organization for support and advocacy of gender issues, said anyone who is willing to learn should come to the forum.

“The panelists guide the discussion and (provide) information,” McKeever said.

“People can ask us questions, but we’ll be there to guide the discussion and the audience will be the ones with the most participation. I think it will be a really great experience and really educational for everybody that comes.”

Panelist Heather Kozar, a Caro senior, worked on Senter’s study, which will be presented at the forum.

“There was a survey done last year regarding gender and sexuality issues on campus that surveyed 400 students,” Kozar said. “Come and bring great questions and an open mind.

Try to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. It’s important to think outside the box and try to consider how other people feel, and that’s pivotal to the success of the forum.” university@cm-life.com

Circus where protesters set up the occupation.

For the first hours the crowd chanted, “We are the 99 percent.”

David Edgar, president of United Auto Workers Local 869 in Warren, stood at the statue of the Russell Alger Memorial Fountain and offered individuals a megaphone to speak about the issue they were protesting.

Dearborn resident Mohomed Hourani told the crowd he was there to protest the war in Iraq.

“The stability of our own country isn’t right,” Hourani said. “We’re fighting a war overseas to help support the Middle East, yet we here in America shouldn’t have to be fighting our own politicians.”

Edgar held a sign made by a Detroit woman who asked to be called Barbara. It listed the multiple demands of their protest.

“We don’t appear to have some clear-cut goals,” Barbara said.

“These are the major issues.”

The goals on her sign read: Audit the federal reserve, ban lobbying, slash military spending, repeal the Patriot Act, reinstate Glass-Steagall, convict bankster fraud and ban outsourcing of U.S. jobs. students in attendance make it hard for students to enjoy themselves in the parking lot.

St. Claire Shores resident Justin Bole works on weekends, but said he will return to Occupy at the park Monday through Friday.

“I don’t plan to leave until things change,” Bole said. “What else do I have to do but be here for something that makes sense?”

At 7 p.m., the facilitators of the event held a general assembly. Sarah Coffey, a Detroit resident and facilitator of Occupy Detroit, addressed the dwindling crowd.

After general assembly, the protesters broke up into groups to stabilize the occupation. They made up a media staff, an education team, a medical team, a logistics team, a receiving station and a food and comfort tent.

PET BOARDING & DAY CARE

As night and rain fell, camping gear was pulled out. About 50 tents and makeshift shelters filled with donated supplies began popping up as protesters spent their first night in the park.

No one is sure exactly how long they will be there, not even the participants.

Some will take shifts to go to their jobs or be with their families, said facilitator Jessica Dawl of Hamtramck. She said the cold might keep some from staying there too long, but that she plans to stay indefinitely.

“A lot of us are committed to staying through the winter,” Dawl said. “I’ll be here as long as I have to be.” metro@cm-life.com

Ambassadors relish complementary role as community members

Jones and Clark were linked by a mutual friend but had never really interacted. They clicked right away, however, and spent the rest of the week hanging out. The two agreed they were thrilled to share the experience with each other.

“We have this connection and we really think we’ll stay friends,” Jones said. “I don’t know how to explain it, but we just understand each other. We’re like a Twizzler.”

easier and more enjoyable. He said the pair has a way of completing each other’s answers and finding a balance.

Clark, a Clarkson native, was

nominated by First Book, a national nonprofit organization she started at CMU. The organization promotes literacy for underprivileged children by giving them their first books.

First Book fundraises throughout the semester to provide books for two schools. She described the end result as a Christmas-morning feeling.

Clark has also been involved with Orchesis Dance Theatre since her sophomore year. She said she has been dancing since

the age of 3 and finds a passion in every dance from ballet to hiphop.

“I’ve had an overall positive experience here at CMU,” Clark said. “I came here as a Leadership Advancement Scholar and it has really been instrumental in my success as a student leader at CMU.” Clark is also a lunch buddies mentor, Leadership Safari guide and is involved in the Alternative Breaks Program.

Poet shows LGBTQinspired works

By Melissa Beauchamp Staff Repor ter

By Hailee Sattavara Staff Reporter

A former well-known, fine-dining restaurant will bring a taste of history to Kelly/Shorts Stadium during home football games.

Clarence Tuma opened The Embers more than 50 years ago, before closing its doors on June 30, 2007. Jeff Tuma, Clarence’s son, took over the business after 30 years of success.

Now the restaurant will be rejuvenated in the form of a concession stand at home football games. Jeff said Dave Heeke, athletics director, came to him with the idea of starting the concession stand.

“Heeke wanted to create some nostalgia from years past that people would remember,” Jeff said.

Clarence said he had a successful business while it lasted, mostly because of the restaurant’s location on the corner of Mission and Preston streets.

The state of the economy was a major factor in the business closing, he said.

“We knew things in the country were going to get worse and more expensive,” he said.

Offering a pulled-pork sandwich based on their famous pork chop and their original peanut and pea salad at the stadium is a way for Embers to show its support and appreciation for a community and university that contributed to the success of the business, he said.

A vital portion of the business came from CMU directly, Clarence said, and the majority of the employees were also from CMU. He said he sees this as an opportunity to give back to a community that made The Embers thrive.

“It was one hand helping the other hand,” he said.

Tuma said he and his son are not receiving any of the profits. CMU is just using the name and famous recipes, he said.

“It’s an honor CMU wants to recognize The Embers, but we also feel very pleased they are willing to do that,” he said.

Dewitt sophomore Rob Hollebrands served food

Coming Out Week concluded with a workshop featuring world-class, spoken-word poet Andrea Gibson Saturday.

More than 40 gathered at the poetry workshop with Gibson at 11 a.m. in the Bovee University Center.

The event was held in the Office for Institutional Diversity’s conference room in the newly-renovated UC office.

Gibson was the winner of the 2008 Women’s World Poetry Slam and has placed third in two international poetry slam competitions.

She has appeared on Free Speech TV, BBC, Air America, C-SPAN, NPR and was featured in the documentary “Slam Planet.”

She shared work of fellow LGBTQ poets and encouraged those in attendance to write in response after each reading.

Shannon Jolliff, director of LGBTQ services, worked to make Gibson’s presence at Central Michigan University possible.

Jolliff came across Gibson through a Google search and said she was intrigued by her work. She later showed videos to students and received positive reactions.

Some of Gibson’s clips can also be found on the Office of LGBTQ Services’ Facebook page.

“We use a clip of (Gibson’s) ‘Swing Set’ in gender norm conversations,” Jolliff said.

Joliff said Gibson received a standing ovation after her slam poetry reading Friday night, with 221 in attendance.

“Her work is not only social-justice-minded, but it hits home,” Joliff said. “People were brought to tears and had the opportunity to see her.”

Owosso senior Sarah Winchester said Gibson’s work was inspirational.

Winchester’s favorite poem of Gibson’s is “Blue Blanket.”

“I’ve never had anyone give me that feeling before,” Winchester said. “She really touched me.”

Martha Lundin, a 20-yearold from Marquette, traveled to see Gibson and said

Allen Park sophomore Kevin Harwood is an avid cereal eater. He usually eats 10 to 15 bowls of cereal each day. “I love cereal,” Harwood said. “I don’t know if I consume it or it consumes me.”

dinner of

champions Student eats more than seven bowls of cereal daily, spends about $20 a week

By Jessica Fecteau | Senior Reporter

A hearty meal for sophomore Kevin Harwood consists of vitamin D milk and sugar.

The Allen Park native said he eats an average of one pound of cereal a day, supplying him with breakfast, lunch and dinner.

“It’s quick, cheap, delicious and allaround amazing,” he said. “I think it’s a healthy addiction though, because I don’t drink.”

The seven to 12 “big” bowls of cereal and quarter gallon of milk he consumes each day sets him back about $20 a week, Harwood said.

“I eat different flavors and types all day, but the same kind each sitting,” he said. “I eat cereal so much that I know what offbrands taste better than real brands.”

Harwood said his mom would allow him to eat cereal anytime to get him to drink more milk when he was a kid.

His mother, Jennifer Harwood, said she used to go through four gallons of milk a week.

“He could polish off a box of cereal in two days, if not a day,” she said. “You name it, I bought it.”

Trent Wolf, Harwood’s roommate, said he sees Harwood eat nothing but cereal every day.

“I see Kevin eat probably about five bowls a day, and that’s just when I am walking around at home,” the Allen Park sophomore said. “I think it’s unhealthy, but I guess he has to do what he has to do to get food.”

Nutrition and Foods Professor Najat Yahia agreed with Wolf that Harwood should branch out to other food groups.

“Eating one type of food will lead to nutrient deficiency

since no single food can provide all the essential nutrients that the body needs,” she said.

“Although cereal is a good source of carbohydrates, it can also contain fair amounts of added sugar, salt and fat.”

She suggested Harwood consume cereal that will provide more nutrients.

“It is important to choose whole-grain cereals or oat bran cereal products,” she said. “Choose whole-grain cereals with lower amounts of added sugar, salt, fat and calories.”

Harwood said his favorite cereal is Trix.

“I never eat it because it is expensive,” he said. “So that’s only for special occasions like an exam day.”

He said he spends more money on cereal than anything else.

“Cows eat grass all day and never get tired of it,” he said.

“Me — my grass is cereal.” studentlife@cm-life.com

Chris Tucker wraps up Homecoming events with stand-up show

By Odille Parker Staff Repor ter

Chris Tucker and two opening acts concluded Homecoming Week with jokes and dance moves Saturday night.

About 1,200 people gathered in Warriner Hall’s Plachta Auditorium to watch Tucker’s stand-up show.

Tucker danced onto the stage, accompanied by fog and flashing lights. He was applauded as he flaunted his Central Michigan University sweatshirt.

“I am in the middle of nowhere-land here (in Mount Pleasant),” Tucker said. “I was like, ‘Where

the hell am I?’ I thought I was going to prison.”

The audience laughed at Tucker’s mocking description of Mount Pleasant. He also cracked jokes about CMU’s football loss against Eastern Michigan University, targeting the football players among the crowd.

Farmington Hills freshman Shafer Johnson said the show was everything he expected it to be. “( The show) was really funny, especially when he started mocking (people) in the audience,” Johnson said. “London Brown was also really funny.”

Brown was the second opening act to Tucker’s

show. He was discovered

by Tucker and has been on tour with him since May. Brown’s show involved dramatic body movement and he used the microphone in his jokes and dance moves. The audience laughed at his ballet-type performance as he described an airplane flight.

Comedian Terry Hodges was the other opening act.

He emphasized the need for people to enjoy life.

“You just have to have some fun,” Hodges said.

“But stay away from drugs and alcohol.”

Tucker joked about his recent troubles with the IRS and encouraged audience members to save their

money. He also mentioned his recent speeding ticket and called police childish for waiting around for speeding cars.

As part of his ending act, Tucker did an impression of Michael Jackson, complete with singing a portion of Jackson’s “Why.” Paul Barlow said he enjoyed hearing Tucker talk about Michael Jackson.

The Mount Pleasant senior said he found it to be a well-rounded show.

“It’s more than just a show,” Barlow said. “Chris always has some advice within his shows. It’s always good to hear him.” stud entl i fe@c m-l i fe.com

Uganda isn’t Vietnam President Barack Obama announced Friday he is sending roughly 100 American troops into East Africa to assist in the apprehension of Joseph Kony, the commander of the Lord’s Resistance Army.

Many people are criticizing Obama because they believe he is entering the U.S. into another war.

I am proud to call myself one of the many Americans who encouraged Obama to take this action.

I have been working with the nonprofit organization Invisible Children for the past five years. We have been working to end the 25-year-long war in Central East Africa, where the LRA has been abducting children, forcing them to kill their parents and become child soldiers and sex slaves.

We believe this atrocity is a crime against humanity and we have been called to end it. Some of my best friends have been affected by the war, so I am dedicating my life to end it.

While many Americans see Obama’s action as the beginning to a new war for America, the troops are only being sent into Uganda to be military advisers.

According to Jedidiah Jenkins, spokesman for Invisible Children, the troops “will not be involved in any offensive action. So any reference to an invasion or new war by the U.S. is absolutely ridiculous.”

While the “military advisors” are being compared to President Kennedy’s initial action in Vietnam, I do not believe the situations have enough similarities to merit the comparison.

The war in Vietnam was political. The war against the LRA, on the other hand, is taking place for one reason: stopping the terror and human rights abuses caused by Kony and his troops throughout Africa.

Yes, it originally started as a civil war against Uganda’s president, Yoweri Museveni. However, the LRA has moved out of Uganda and is now wreaking havoc in South Sudan, Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, three countries without ties to Museveni or his presidency.

They are killing, abducting and injuring civilians to loot villages for food and ammunition so they can continue to survive in the bush.

Many American citizens did not support the Vietnam War. The war against Kony, however, has been demanding the attention of hundreds of thousands of youth in America for the last eight years.

A bill requiring Obama to take action against the LRA was “the most widely supported African issue legislation in modern American history,” Invisible Children said in a press release. It had bipartisan support in both houses of Congress and was signed into law by Obama in May of 2010.

Jenkins said this isn’t another Vietnam, Afghanistan or Iraq.

“It isn’t a political issue. It is a human issue,” said Invisible Children Founder Jason Russell.

The bottom line is this is not a war for American gain. This is an action being taken to save thousands of lives in Central East Africa, and to prevent children from being abducted and forced to fight in a war older than they are.

EDITORIAL | Occupy Wall Street movement raises student concerns

Understandably outraged

T

he Occupy Wall Street protests that began in Manhattan and have since spread throughout the U.S. can be rightly criticized for lacking a single message.

However, the lack of uniformity in their complaints does not mean the protests are illegitimate or the issues raised are unimportant.

Though healthcare reform, environmental protection and reducing the influence of corporate lobbyists are all worthwhile and important goals, for students graduating into this recessed, perhaps depressed, economy, few things are more important than job creation and student loan reform.

The New York Times reported that of members of the class of 2010, only 56 percent had found a job by the time the survey was conducted last spring, whereas 90 percent of grads from 2006 and 2007 have found jobs.

The students who are able to find work after graduation are saddled with crippling student loan debt, some reaching six figures with double digit interest rates.

According to The Wall Street

Journal, the debt for recent college graduates is higher than it has ever been, averaging $22,900.

The New York Times reported the median starting salary for graduates of four-year universities who do find work was down 10 percent from the 2006 to 2008 figures, without accounting for inflation, diminishing the ability for graduates to pay back their loans.

If education is indeed the road out of our current economic slump, then allowing potentially predatory lending guaranteed by the government seems like a cruel trick to play on ambitious students. The cost of a college education continues to increase at a rate far outstripping inflation, and students are saddling themselves with debt made incredibly difficult to pay off in this job market.

The general sentiment among students and recent graduates can be seen in the movement’s growth from a local protest in

New York’s financial district to an international protest against current economic conditions.

The protests suggest the amount and level of discontent with the status quo, and the spreading of the demonstrations abroad, to places like Rome, London and Denmark, suggest the participants are not just the vocal minority.

With organizers now attempting to establish protests in Mount Pleasant, there is potential to make serious changes in the community and university.

Staying true to a message is pivotal to the success of the movement. If the movement is to gain momentum in Mount Pleasant or anywhere else, it needs to be organized and have an obtainable goal.

This is a challenge to organizers and participants. While going through the proper bureaucratic channels often accomplishes nothing, a protest of considerable size can find alternate ways to get noticed and demand reform.

These protests have the ability to have a profound impact on the financial and political gridlock we are experiencing, or dissolve into meaninglessness.

[your voice] Comments on “Bank of America to start charging a $5 debit card fee”: Ebar78 — Saturday BOA took the bail out money to help people save their homes and to give more loans to consumers and small business to help everyone survive during the tough times, but did neither! Instead, they increased the requirements that were necessary for people to keep their homes, made it harder to get a personal loan, and bought out several smaller banks! Now they want to charge me to use by debit card! I will be leaving them when they implement this change because they are just greedy and want to gain revenue! Instead of helping people they are continously finding new ways to get money out of everyday consumers!

I’ve been a customer with them since 01’ and had five accounts with them until I got laid off! Slowly, but surely the money gradually disappeared from those accounts while I was trying to stay afloat with my everyday bills and mortgage. Once those accounts dropped below their minimum monthly balances they began charging me monthly fees, even on my kids custodial accounts, until they finally started going negative. Now I have one account and they want me to charge me for using my debit card! I am at a point where I am not willing to deal with them anymore, so this will be the end of my business with them!

Comments on “COLUMN: Christopher Columbus was no man worthy of a holiday”: Sjhsredwings — Thursday It was estimated there was 8 million people living in the West Indies before Columbus...after Columbes there was only 100,000 surviving.

Also, if Columbus was such a great navigator, why did he think he discovered India? He might have discovered “America,” but only by accident.

Hmm, the Europeans would also burn these “savages” alive or throw them to the dogs. anon — Thursday While he was a great person, you have to understand that he did made some bad choices. Many famous people made bad choices.

Even unions in cities like Boston, New York, Chicago take the day off and celebrate his great accomplishment.

Only recently did multiculturalists start defaming Columbus.

CMU should celebrate Columbus. They don’t because the university is too PC. Columbus founded America in 1492 and is a good man.

Funny, how the unions celebrate his day with a day off!!!

Ban smoking outright

The smoking ban has cleaned the air in restaurants and bars and shown that cigarettes are becoming a thing of the past.

Concentrated efforts of people too cool to smoke started paying off long ago. Now if a woman wants to have a cigarette with her coffee, she’ll have to smoke it out in the cold, as she should.

It’s not healthy, but smokers don’t care about their health anyway. They’re hedonistic monsters.

But the fight is far from over. A man who wants to take his young son to a nice dinner in a smoke-free bar at midnight may be in luck now, but he’s still susceptible to having to walk through a cloud of smoke on the way out once they get 25 feet away from the building.

A man who wants to have a cigarette with his dinner will have to eat on the street. It’s not fair to other patrons who sit in the non-smoking section to have to glance over and see the fetid air being devoured by the overhead fan.

Watch that while eating your eggs and hash browns. Not good.

It’s not fair to the proprietor of the bar or restaurant to have the droves of rabid smokers puffing on their cancer sticks in the middle of his establishment. He wants to kick them out, but he’s too afraid. So now the law has done it for him.

For all the success, we need a new crusade. The loud must be louder. We need to abandon all other causes and assume a new fervor.

Vote for politicians in favor of banning smoking. Protest in front of smoke shops. Show the world how you feel about cigarettes.

I know, we all know, in fact, that if everyone stopped smoking, we would all live a thousand years.

The only way to make it happen is to outlaw cigarettes, cigars and pipes. Pull the product out of the stores overnight. To possess: Prison.

To sell: Death by firing squad. We need to show addicts that dissent will not be tolerated.

It’s a public health risk. So then when the cigarette battle has been fought and won, we can tackle other risks to community health, like the sun. It’s been giving good, honorable, misguided people melanoma for millennia.

Of course, we don’t have the technology to obliterate the sun, nor to survive without it, but we can pass laws and up our enforcement. It’s what the government is good for.

When the first gusts of summertime wind creep in, the enforcers can creep out. They’d waltz through the street corners, issuing court citations for FTWS (Failure to Wear Sunblock).

We all know the police are good at issuing citations. That will teach people to wear sunblock. It’s a deterrent.

Then the revenue from the sunblock tickets would make up for the revenue lost in the tobacco taxes, and the budget would be balanced, the recession would be over, and the world would be saved.

All thanks to the smoking ban.

“It’s cool to see an old business come back and be able to show the community what it has to offer,” he said.

He said the restaurant always had a reputation in the community for delicious food.

“It’s a nice way for The Embers to be remembered and keep the association with CMU still alive,” Jeff said. met ro@c m-l i fe.com

He said he was not sure how to display his emotions while on his float.

“I was more trying to decide the best way — do I jump out and go run and hug people? I didn’t know, so I just kind of screamed at people,” McNeal said. “They probably thought I was a little weird.”

“Alan doesn’t think individually, but thinks about the student body as a whole,” Ketchum said. “Alan is the person out of our whole group of friends that we look (at) to get better. He is dedicated to everything he does.”

Jones and Clark both see being Golden Ambassadors as something that never stops giving.

“You are always Gold Ambas-

The two agreed being a Golden Ambassador has been the most memorable part of college so far.

The two agreed it is exciting to see people who make a difference on campus this year, and know those people could be ambassadors next year.

Creator of the Gus Macker basketball tournaments, Scott McNeal said being Grand Marshal was an honor he never dreamed was possible.

McNeal, a 1979 Central Michigan University alumnus, participated in Homecoming events and was part of the 2011 Homecoming Parade.

With his deceased father in mind, he said he felt grateful to receive the honor.

“Oh, it’s incredible — it is.

I would have never dreamed this,” McNeal said. “My father passed away a few years ago and graduated from here in ’59. He’s looking down on me and going, ‘Oh my gosh, that crazy guy is actually a Grand Marshal.’”

The Gus Macker 3-on-3 basketball tournament was started in 1974 by McNeal and 18 of his friends in Lowell. It has expanded to 75 cities, including annual tournaments on CMU’s campus, with more

than 200,000 players and 1.7 million spectators.

Stan Shingles, assistant vice president for University Recreation, said he enjoyed seeing McNeal as the Grand Marshal. Shingles, who met McNeal when Gus Macker tournaments were first getting started, said he believes McNeal was a great choice to represent the school.

“I think Scott embodies everything you want in a Grand Marshal,” Shingles said. “His enthusiasm and his love for CMU is what you want to see in every Homecoming Grand Marshal.”

McNeal said he did not know what to expect from the crowd at the Homecoming Parade.

“I was hoping that maybe

Jones was nominated by his fraternity Kappa Alpha Psi. The Detroit native said his fraternity has been the outlet to many of his other involvements at CMU. Keeping involved has been a key part of his experience. Jones is a leading member of Sexual Aggression Peer Advocates, a resident assistant in Herrig Hall, a participant of Leadership Camp and a member of Word Hammer.

Through his fraternity, he also became part of the National Pan-Hellenic Council and is now the president.

“The people here at Central have been great, and it’s a good feeling to be able to represent everyone who has supported us every day,” Jones said. “It’s as if we are the face for all those who don’t get recognition.”

In his limited spare time, Jones enjoys Netflix movies and participating in intramural sports. He also enjoys adding to his collection of bow ties and bouncy balls.

key players. Mike Petrucci, Leterrius Walton and John Williams were out with injuries and Armond Staten wasn’t at the game for unknown reasons.

“I don’t have a comment on Armond Staten,” Enos said. “Just talking about the guys there today. We have a lot of guys out. We have what we have and they’re young.”

Enos didn’t blame it all on youth.

Some of the long runs came breaking through defensive miss alignments.

“We had some miss alignments and some of the guys were older guys,” Enos said. “The defensive ends in particular lost contain at times.”

The 350 yards on the ground are the most rushing yards CMU has allowed since last year against Navy.

Saturday, the Chippewas face a less run-oriented Ball State team.

The Cardinals average 141 rushing yards per game and their quarterback isn’t a dual threat like Gillett.

As far as last Saturday though, the Eagles had their way.

“We got handled pretty good,” Enos said.

he statistic that stood out the most following Saturday’s Homecoming game was the 350 rushing yards Central Michigan gave up to Eastern Michigan.

It’s not like the team was playing against an Adrian Peterson who went off for record numbers.

The 350 yards were divided up between three guys, who all recorded more than 90 rushing yards on double-digit carries.

Dominique White picked up 161 yards, leading the rushing effort, followed up by 104 yards from Javonti Greene and 93 by quarterback Alex Gillett.

When one player has a career day, it’s an impressive offensive outing.

When it’s three guys who each have almost more yards rushing than the entire opposing team, the fingers are pointed at the defense.

CMU’s defense is twelfth out of 13 teams in the Mid-American Conference. It has allowed 41 scores, including 28 touchdowns and 13 field goals, which account for a MAC-worst 236 points.

Quarterback Ryan Radcliff has taken the blame for a number of games this season, turning the ball over in key situations, but that wasn’t the case against EMU. Down two scores, Radcliff led the team 72 yards down the field, capping off the three-and-a-half minute drive with a touchdown pass to receiver Titus Davis.

The CMU defense forced a three and out, shutting down the brutal Eagles running game.

With momentum on his side, Radcliff led a 64-yard drive in just over a minute, ending when he found receiver Jerry Harris for a touchdown.

Radcliff even threaded the ball through two defenders into the arms of Davis for the two-point conversion. Everything was working for the offense.

But similar to last year’s Homecoming game, the defense was unable to make a stop.

Gillett threw a 14-yard pass, got to midfield, and then scrambled on the next play for 20 yards. On first down, the quarterback took the ball up the middle 30 yards untouched and into the end zone with 37 seconds remaining in the game.

Radcliff couldn’t be blamed for the loss, throwing for 351 yards and three touchdowns on 33 completed passes.

He made the occasional mistake, failing to look off a receiver here and there, but the junior had a strong performance overall.

Defensively, the team failed when called on in the final minute of play.

EMU’s winning drive lasted three plays and 32 seconds, in which the defense recorded one tackle.

EMU proved it could run the ball, yet CMU’s defense continued to be embarrassed on the ground.

While the defense is banged up without its upperclassman leadership, the young guys have to realize the team needs them to step up.

Tackling is the most basic part of football, yet the team continues to miss them week in and week out.

The fans want to criticize Radcliff because turnovers come back on the signal caller, but his strong games are masked by the team’s inability to stop its opponents.

If it’s not Radcliff, it’s the defense.

If it’s not the defense, it’s Radcliff.

The Chippewas will not start winning until they can put together a complete effort on both sides of the ball, and they are running out of time.

By John Manzo Sports Editor

Eastern Michigan put the saying “if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it” to use on Saturday.

EMU head coach Ron English planned to run the ball, and it worked.

It worked well enough for quarterback Alex Gillett to trust his own feet with 1:09 remaining. His instincts paid off as he sprinted into the end zone for the winning touchdown in a 35-28 victory over Central Michigan on Saturday at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

“We wanted to get back on the field and stop them (and) give our team another opportunity to go into overtime,” said safety Jahleel Addae. “We felt that if we went into overtime, we had a good chance of winning the game. Obviously that didn’t happen.”

After completing a pass to wide receiver Trey Hunter, Gillett rushed to the right for 20 yards and capped off the drive with a 30-yard run.

He rushed for 99 yards on the day.

Quarterback Ryan Radcliff needed one more touchdown to tie, but CMU’s effort fell short. Radcliff was intercepted by defensive back Marcell Rose on the last play of the game on a desperation throw from the EMU 28 yard line.

“We were like, ‘alright, over-

time, let’s go,’” Radcliff said. “We just couldn’t get the job done in the end.”

Gillett and running back Dominique White combined for 261 yards and two rushing touchdowns, but the Mid-American Conference’s thirdbest rushing attack had more.

Running back Javonti Greene rushed for 92 yards and three secondhalf touchdowns.

Soccer rebounds from WMU loss with 1-0 victory over NIU

By Ryan Zuke Staff Reporter

Head coach Neil Stafford said a sign of a good team is its ability to bounce back after a loss.

The Central Michigan women’s soccer team responded with a 1-0 victory over Northern Illinois on Sunday after losing to Western Michigan 1-0 on Friday.

“I think any time you respond with a win after a loss, it’s a good thing,” Stafford said. “But I thought it was kind of a weird weekend. I thought we played really well on Friday and lost, but played just okay today and won.”

On Friday, WMU avenged its MAC Tournament loss to the Chippewas last season.

Despite carrying the play for most of the game, CMU could not find the back of the net.

Sophomore Estee Outcalt scored her third goal of the season in the 56th minute of

35

the NIU game when she received a throw in from Bailey Brandon and took a sliding shot past the NIU goalkeeper.

“She came in and played well,” Stafford said. “It was good to see her have such a presence in the game.”

That was all the offense the Chippewas needed as goalkeeper Grace Labrecque earned her third shutout of the season.

“Grace was magnificent,” Stafford said. “She is the reason we ended up with three points today.”

CMU outshot NIU 18-7 and had three corner kicks in comparison to the Huskies’ four.

“There were definitely areas for us to improve on, but overall, we got the job done and I thought we did well in certain areas,” Outcalt said. sports@cm-life.com

and two-yard and five-yard runs, respectively, in the fourth.

The Eagles (4-3, 2-1 MAC) rushed for 350 yards compared to the Chippewas 98.

“You have to give them credit, Eastern Michigan, they ran the ball very, very well,” said CMU head coach Dan Enos. “Their backs were very determined, ran hard and they handled us up front. Basically, that’s the difference

in the football game.”

Greene’s five-yard touchdown run in the fourth put EMU up by double digits for the first time, but the lead was not large enough.

CMU’s offense put two scoring drives together with less than six minutes remaining, tying the game at 28 after receiver Titus Davis caught a two-point conversion on a pass from quarterback Radcliff with 1:09 remaining.

Radcliff went 33-for-50 with 351 passing yards and three touchdowns in windy conditions.

Receiver Cody Wilson led CMU with nine receptions and 103 yards receiving. Tight end David Blackburn, receiver Jerry Harris and Davis all had touchdown receptions for the Chippewas.

Attendance for homecoming was 17,158. It was 26,730 in 2009 and 24,761 last season. sports@cm-life.com

Chippewas struggle to stop Eagles power running game

By Matt Thompson Assistant Sports Editor

Central Michigan head coach Dan Enos told his team on Friday that whichever team rushed for more yards would win the game this weekend.

He was right.

The Eagles gashed the CMU defense, totaling 350 yards to only 98 by the Chippewas.

“They had a mindset to run the ball and they did it,” said CMU safety Jahleel Addae. “We didn’t stop the run today and that was the biggest factor.

We need to learn from this and correct our mistakes.”

EMU barely showed the threat to pass, only attempting eight passes.

“You have to give Eastern Michigan credit. They ran the ball very well,” Enos said.

EMU had two running backs over 100 yards on the day (Dominic White had 160), and Eagles quarterback Alex Gillett added 93 yards on the ground, including the winning touchdown on a 30-yard run with 37 seconds left.

“We were devastated,” Enos said of the touchdown. “We felt pretty dejected. I though we had the momentum.”

CMU’s defense was without four

Field Hockey wins final home games of season

By Jeff LaHaye Staff Reporter

Scoreboard

The seniors on the Central Michigan field hockey team left the field holding their heads high after a 2-1 win on senior day against Ball State on Sunday.

The Chippewas wasted little time, scoring their first goal 2:24 into the first half of the game, held at the Field Hockey Complex.

Senior Captain Paulina Lee passed the ball into the circle where midfielder Erin Dye shot the ball past the goalkeeper.

“Before the game started, we talked about gaining intensity earlier into games,” said head coach Cristy Freese. “We knew this game was going to be a tough challange and the team wanted to play strong for the seniors.”

Ball State answered when senior forward Devanny Kuhn dribbled the ball past the CMU defense, into the circle and scored unassisted, tying the game at one.

Freshman Cayleigh Immelman flicked the ball over a defenders stick and a diving Lee knocked the ball left of the goalkeepers foot for the winning goal five minutes after the BSU goal.

the start Freese imagined.

“In the first half, Miami was being more aggressive than us,” Freese said. “They were mentally being pushed off the ball and had to make some changes to give us a shot to win.”

Despite the two-goal deficit CMU faced, there are two halves and it capitalized in the second, winning 3-2 against the RedHawks on Saturday at the CMU Field Hockey Complex.

Lee carried the ball up the sideline into the corner, passed a defender and crossed the ball from the baseline into the circle where Immelman deflected the ball past the goalkeeper for her ninth goal of the season.

Immelman took the penalty stroke and lifted the ball above the goalkeeper’s outstretched glove and into the net, giving

the freshman her second goal of the game.

“During penalty strokes I pretend I’m in practice and forget all about the pressure,” Immelman said. “I focus where I want to put the ball and I hope it hits the back of the net — it usually works.”

The two wins put CMU second in the Mid-American Conference standings.

“The sweep this weekend was really important for us,” Freese said. “We got good players and it’s a good feeling to see our hard work pay off this weekend.”

The wins were important to seniors, Lee and Brooke Sihota.

“This win was big because of its conference implications and also because I wanted my

All are Welcome last game in Mount Pleasant to be a victory,” Lee said. “Leaving from CMU, I want to be remembered as a good person, a good teammate and a difference-maker on the field.”

The Chippewas finish the regular season with four road games before the MAC Tournament.

Next weekend CMU will travel to Durham North Carolina to play Appalachian State at 11 a.m. on Saturday and Duke at 1 p.m. on Sunday.

“Overall, this weekend was not one of our best,” Lee said.

“But this is why I love this team.

We are always willing to improve and we need to improve on finishing in the circle.”

Confidence is at an all-time high for the Central Michigan volleyball team as it comes back home for the next two weeks.

On Saturday CMU beat Miami of Ohio in four matches.

“We were really playing well in this match,” said head coach Erik Olson. “In the first and fourth set, we were quite good.”

The Chippewas set the tone for the match in game one, dominating with a 13-point lead, ultimately winning 2513.

After a few close games, CMU came out in game four, easily handling the RedHawks 25-12 to finish the match.

“I don’t think this team ever thought game five was an opFriday tion,” Olson said. “ W h e n we were focused, we were good.”

“It feels great to be on the court again,” VerVelde said.

“I’ve missed it a lot and it felt really nice to be able to play today.”

They weren’t the only ones making an impact on the match. Sophomore setter Kelly Maxwell ran the offense with 54 assists (13.5/game) while sophomore Jenna Coates led the defense with 24 digs.

“We passed great and put together a good effort,” VerVelde said. “Once we got into the swing of things, we put together a good night of volleyball.”

“We were happy to get the win,” Olson said. “We felt that Bowling Green was out for blood tonight, and that gives credit to our team’s composure.”

The match was the fifth this season to go five games.

CMU is 3-2 in those matches this season after going 1-6 last season.

“We finally learned how to finish,” Schultz said. “Apparently, we like playing that way, because last year we struggled with that.”

Olson said he remains calm in the final game of a match.

“If you ask my wife, she’d say she can’t even watch those games,” Olson said.

“I don’t think my pulse goes over 70 in any of the matches. You get used to it.”
