Omega Psi Phi dubbed ‘Best of the West’ at the 11th annual Step Show competition By Lara von Linsowe-Wilson The Daily Barometer

Because OSU has a limited number of D9 Greeks, many of the performers come from greater Oregon areas, Washington and California to compete in the Step Show. “My favorite part of the show is being able to watch the different organizations show their pride and affiliation,” Bates said. “It is always great to be around other Greeks, some of which you know, but the vast majority you do not.” In addition to D9 sorority and fraternity participants, D9 alumni, members

Old school met new school on Saturday as the Oregon State University Divine 9 sororities and fraternities concluded Greek Week with their annual Step Show. After a long night of celebrating traditions and cultures, the brothers of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity were crowned “Best of the West” in stepping, among other local and non-local members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council. In addition to the step team competition, the audience was entertained by performances ranging in genre from rap artists to comedians. Each performance was based on themes from “School Daze,” a hit 1988 musical-drama film by Spike Lee. Setting aside the more competitive aspect of the Step Show, the evening’s events were held with the goal of providing awareness for the black Greek system. “The purpose for the Divine 9 Step Show is to create a space for historically black Greek organizations to showcase their stepping and strolling,” said Meleani Bates, president for the Black Student Union. “The Step Show is a place jackie seus | THE DAILY BAROMETER where black Greeks are able to congreMalcolm Lewis performs a saxophone gate together in solidarity, brotherhood and sisterhood.” solo as judges tally Step Show results.

from other multicultural sororities and some of the Pan-Hellenic Greeks came out to show their support. OSU graduate student LaTreese Denson has been a member of the Portland alumni chapter of Delta Sigma Theta for the past three years. Although her D9 roots began during her years at North Carolina State University, she still tries to help bring parts of her culture to Oregon in any way she can. “Each year we’re working to gain awareness for the Divine 9 by letting people know we’re here on campus, and that we’ve been here for a while,” Denson said. “It’s great to see everybody here for one thing at one time enjoying the same thing — Greek life. It’s great to have unity.” The Step Show featured performers from all age ranges, but there was something to gain for everyone regardless of skill level. “It’s a life-changing thing knowing that no matter where you go, no matter what you do, you’re going to have brothers there to support you and to elevate you to a higher standard,” said OSU Alpha Phi Alpha member Anderson DuBoise III, who has been a performing member with the group since February. “It’s not something you have out there a lot for African American males, and this is something that fills in that gap.” Lara von Linsowe-Wilson, news reporter news@dailybarometer.com

No rigid rules, just going with the flow Flow Club at OSU builds bonded community, perfects individual style By Ryan Dawes

The Daily Barometer

A whir of well-practiced motion blurs out from the members of the Flow Club at Oregon State University as they warm up for another day of practice. The Flow Club strives to provide a friendly environment in which members of both OSU and the Corvallis community can practice the art of prop manipulation, where the performer physically interacts with objects such as staffs, spinning poi, nun chucks, flags, hula hoops and umbrellas. Acrobatics also are a part of it, as the artists can employ trapezes and other circus-related equipment. “There are no defining rules in Flow Club regarding your perfor-

Tuition hikes nearing approval by State Board n

OSU expects 5.9 percent increase in tuition next year By Don Iler

The Daily Barometer

Students at Oregon State University will see a 5.9 percent increase in their tuition bills next year if the State Board of Higher Education approves the recommendations from its Finance and Administration Committee. The committee, which forwarded its recommendations to the Board of Higher Education on Friday, made recommendations for the seven public universities in Oregon that are governed by the board. Tuition would increase by 4.5 percent on average across the seven universities, with the Oregon Institute of Technology seeing the largest increase at 6 percent and University of Oregon and Portland State University with the lowest at 4.5 percent. Since the fees approved by student government this year are lower than last year, the percent increase from last year when combining tuition and fees together is 4.5 percent at OSU. The tuition increase will also include a gradual phase-out of the tuition plateau, which allows students taking between 13-16 credit hours to pay at a cheaper rate per hour. Steve Clark, vice president of university marketing and relations, said that while the 5.9 percent increase may not be something that everyone agrees with, the university recognizes the impact it has on students and families and has tried to moderate that. “We are still increasing the amount of scholarships, financial aid and tuition See TUITION | page 2

into the club is one of my more favorite parts of the club,” said Story Edison, OSU freshman in anthropology and psychology, and president of the Flow Club. The club performs at a handful of events, including the Dance Against Hunger and the Oregon Country Fair. Performances can either be choreographed or improvised, depending on the show. Several different styles within these types of performances also exist. Performers employ martial arts, isolation (which focuses on the object being manipulated more than the performer’s actual self dancing), and dancing. Additionally, performances can be done in the dark, where glowing or lit props are used. “Nothing is like cracking open a new pair of glow sticks to use in a performance,” said Kevin Feyder, OSU freshman in computer science. The club was founded in 2010, and officially became an OSU student organization this past winter term. “I enjoy being able to do what I love to do, and to be able to inspire others to do it as well,” Seward said. “It’s been great to see how others have really made their styles their own, and I’m excited to see how the club will evolve in the future.”

waivers to assist students attending Oregon State,” Clark said. Clark said diminished funding from the state, combined with increased costs from the Public Employees Retirement System and health care, as well as increased enrollment, have made tuition increases necessary. He also said that compared with peer institutions, OSU has done more than others to keep tuition low. Student leaders at OSU have been campaigning and lobbying for a tuition freeze, asking officials not to raise tuition. These efforts have been varied, from testifying at the state house, to launching the “Wear the Square” campaign. “We’ve been lobbying university officials all year for no tuition increases,” said Dan Cushing, vice president of the Associated Students of Oregon State University. “We believe our efforts got them to decrease the increase from the 6.9 percent it was originally to the 5.9 percent they ultimately asked for.” However, student leaders believe the increase is still too much. “Students have endured constant and exorbitant tuition increases in the past four years, and next year’s tuition proposal is just too much,” said Amelia Harris, ASOSU president. “Students are already being forced to make critical decisions with cur-

rent tuition levels, determining whether we pay for food and housing or we pay for textbooks and tuition, and the proposed tuition increases will only force students to bear the burden more.” Incoming ASOSU president Brett Deedon said his administration would continue to focus on fighting tuition increases. “Education has become more of a business than a right,” Deedon said. “It’s a shame to continue to raise tuition when students see no benefit.” Tuition and fees at OSU have increased by 112 percent since the 2002-2003 school year. During the same time, state contributions to higher education have decreased while enrollment has soared at many of the state’s universities. The Board of Higher Education will meet on June 21 to approve the proposed increases.

Nay to tuition hikes T

uition is going up again — which really shouldn’t be a surprise. Tuition has been steadily increasing for years. From 2011-12, tuition costs for a resident undergraduate 15-credit student at Oregon State University increased by 6.9 percent, according to a graphic published by the Oregon University System in June 2012. In addition to that increase, OSU tuition is yet again set to experience an increase of 5.9 percent. It’s unfortunate tuition is rising — again — but we didn’t expect anything less. Just because we saw it coming doesn’t mean this large of an increase makes a whole lot of sense. Yes, federal funding is down and continues to decrease. Yes, our economy is still struggling. But does it make sense to hike up the cost for education? We know $400 might not seem like that much money. But that’s a month’s rent. That’s one paycheck, a month’s worth of food money, and the gas or electric bill. Four hundred dollars is not much on the large scale of tuition we have to pay or the debt we will accumulate. But on the small-scale budget most college students live on, $400 is a lot of money. The hikes are linked to increased retirement and health care costs, said Jan Lewis — the Oregon University System’s assistant vice chancellor for budget operations — to KATU. Between 2007 and 2012, health care costs in America have increased by nearly 50 percent, according to the Society for Human Resource Management. Still, college students don’t have high-paying jobs, which is why nearly 60 percent of college students borrow money annually, according to the nonprofit organization, American Student Association. High tuition costs are not the only things we have to pay for. Due to our changing world, 75 percent of college students are nontraditional students. This means a healthy portion of us commute to school, juggle families or have jobs on top of attending school, according to a Complete College America report. It’s also taking us longer to complete our degrees. Whether we’re full-time or part-time students, a four-year degree is taking us five or six years — sometimes longer — to complete, which means we’re paying these tuition increases for more than the “typical” four years. Despite this disappointing news, we shouldn’t stop halfway. If anything, these hikes are motivation to earn a degree quicker. In the job market, those with a fouryear degree “significantly outpaced” the wages of those without a degree, according to a research economist from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. Those with degrees have overall lower unemployment, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The unemployment rate in April for those with only some amount of college is 6.4 percent. Compared to a 3.9 percent unemployment rate for those with a bachelor’s degree and higher, finishing college definitely seems like the logical route. We just wish it were more feasible. We’re paying more over a longer period of time hoping our futures don’t fall into that 3.9 percent unemployment rate. Even if we do find a job, paying off our debt in a “reasonable” amount of time now means in 10 years. The tuition increase, the debt, the unemployment possibility are all discouraging.

Who cares about the Oxford comma? Me T The Daily Barometer

his is a classic story about a girl and her comma. But not just any comma could have captured my heart in the way that this piece of punctuation did: I’ve fallen in love with the Oxford comma. For those unacquainted with the Oxford comma, let’s just say it’s a paragon of clarity, making sense of sentences that would otherwise be menaced by unspecific lists. For example, an Internet-derived scenario in favor of the Oxford comma presents the difference between inviting the strippers, JFK, and Stalin — or inviting the strippers, JFK and Stalin, to dance for your entertainment. Unless you’re turned on by naked political figures, (in which case, there’s no hope arguing with you anyway because there are some serious fetishes you need to sort out) the Oxford comma is your friend. Another example is a dedication gone wrong: “This book is dedicated to my parents, Ayn Rand and God” featured in the Economist article, “Oxford comma, still with us.” As with the first example, I take no credit for this ingenious creation. As the sentence reads now, the author’s parents are Ayn Rand and God — wouldn’t be able to get away with much in that household. Add the Oxford comma, the clouds part, and the sun shines through on the probable true meaning of the writer. His parents aren’t God and Ayn Rand. He’s thanking them along with his parents, who are probably less omnipotent and won’t

Dress like you care

n class at Oregon State University, it is rare to see any person wearing pants that button. Most of the time, young men come in dressed in their “best sweatpants” and young women dress in their “clean yoga pants.” Professors teach to an auditorium of students who sit dazed at their computers, slumped over their iPhones and chatting with their peers. As the term continues and attendance dwindles, students show up intoxicated to lecture halls and stop doing their readings. When students on this campus apply for jobs, more often than not they don’t show up with their resume. They don’t come in nice clothing. They don’t come prepared. They don’t present themselves well. Their personal image doesn’t reflect someone who works hard, or someone who will bring something valuable to the place of employment. It says, “I’m too lazy to buy pants that have a zipper,” or “Buttoning that shirt would take too much work.” The reality is, every interaction you have with another person leaves them with an opinion. I have 871 friends on Facebook. I don’t talk to that many people. I don’t care about that many people. But, through The best Facebook I have plan is given 871 people the ability to to come pass judgment dressed like on my life in regards to what you want I post. What they a job. see in photos, my web interactions and my lack of participation becomes my personal image. You may not care what a professor thinks of you on Tuesday, but you’re going to care when you need letters of recommendation for graduate school. The best plan is to come dressed like you want a job, not dressed like you are already doing the job. If you are applying for a barista position and wearing jeans is the normal uniform, look forward to wearing denim. But set yourself apart and wear nice pants. Dress like the job should want you. For many of us, college is coming to a close, and many of us have no idea how to go about entering the real world. Unfortunately, having great beer pong skills doesn’t get you hired. Here is what does: A fantastic personal image. What you say, how you put yourself together, your posture, what you post online, how you shake hands, how you do your hair and interact with one another dictates whether or not you get your dream job. Sure, someone else might not be as smart as you or as good at the job that you’re doing, but that won’t matter. What matters is that they were smart enough to use their personal image to sell themselves.

The man behind the catcher’s mask n

Junior catcher Jake Rodriguez has provided the Beavers with more than just offense, defense this season By Andrew Kilstrom The Daily Barometer

kevin ragsdale

| THE DAILY BAROMETER

Junior catcher Jake Rodriguez talks with senior Matt Boyd on the mound. Rodriguez has provided leadership for the Beavers behind the plate this season.

The majority of Oregon State’s success this season has been attributed to its pitching staff and their second-best earned run average in the nation. The No. 3 Beavers’ starting rotation has justifiably received praise all year for their play. But what is oftentimes overlooked is the man on the other end of the Matt Boyd fastball, the Andrew Moore sinker or the Ben Wetzler slider — the same person responsible for calming everyone down when emotions run high and creating energy when things aren’t going as planned. While Jake Rodriguez goes unnoticed, hidden behind his mask and chest protector, he’s been just as big a reason for OSU’s Pac-12 Championship as anyone. In his first season as OSU’s full-time catcher — Rodriguez played second base his freshman season and split time behind the plate and in the infield last season — the junior has been consistently productive. He’s amassed a .272 batting average, 32 runs batted in and a .383 on-base percentage in 158 at-bats. Defensively, Rodriguez has thrown out 15 base runners attempting to steal during conference play, which puts him third in the Pac-12. On the flipside, Pac-12 base runners have successfully stolen only 16 bases against him, tied for best in the conference for starting catchers. Arizona State’s Max Rossiter has seen 67 base runners successfully steal against him. “The throwing part has always kind of been his calling card,” said pitching coach Nate Yeskie. “When the competition gets better, he’s one of those rare types where he does too.” Rodriguez’s ability to keep runners out of the base paths and create outs with his arm is just one reason why the pitching staff has enjoyed his constant presence behind the plate this season. “He’s amazing,” Wetzler said. “He throws everybody out. You know he’s going to get you outs and steal you outs where he can.” But the position is more than throwing out base runners and preventing passed balls. Rodriguez’s interaction with and handling of the pitching staff has been even more beneficial than getting extra outs in games. “People think it’s as simple as putting down [signs], blocking and throwing guys out, which he’s really good at,” Yeskie said. “But the real measure to me is how well you can make a guy respond on the mound when adversity kicks in.”

“Some guys need their tails chewed, and some guys you have to offer comfort. But how you do that, what words you choose and how you choose to say them — there are a lot of variables that he’s grasped.” The OSU catcher has served as the general of the entire defense this season. Through constant leadership, Rodriguez has been one of OSU’s most unheralded stars. “He’s a leader out there,” said senior left-hander Boyd. “He’s the quarterback of the field out there, and he really controls the staff.” “He’s a great leader behind the plate that gets everybody going,” added junior left-hander Wetzler.” Some people are natural leaders, but some learn through experience. The pitching staff’s meteoric rise to one of the top staffs in the nation and Rodriguez’s maturation between the plate are no coincidence. The junior from Elk Grove, Calif., has built relationships with the pitching staff that have allowed him to better manage game situations. When someone is struggling on the mound, Rodriguez knows just what to say to get everyone back in rhythm. “It takes time to learn how a guy’s going to react to you going out to the mound,” Rodriguez said. “Some guys you have to go out there and be calm with them, and some guys you have to go out there and get into them a little bit.” When OSU last won the College World Series in 2007, catcher Mitch Canham served as one of the team’s main leaders. Last year, Ryan Gorton, who split time behind the plate with Rodriguez, provided a lot of that same leadership. The maturation and development of OSU’s current catcher is a major reason the Beavers have hopes of returning to the College World Series in Omaha, Neb., for a chance at another national title. “He’s taken leaps and bounds in the last year,” Boyd said. “He’s really matured behind the plate and as a player. He’s not playing with emotions anymore, [he’s] playing smart. You can see the differences.” As the No. 3 national seed and having the advantage of hosting regionals and Super Regionals, OSU has its best chance at winning the College World Series since their last title in 2007. Rodriguez might not be OSU’s best or flashiest player, but he will be just as big a reason as any if the Beavers are to achieve their ultimate goal. “He’s had a pretty profound impact,” Yeskie said. “He’s a great balance for everyone.” Andrew Kilstrom, sports editor On Twitter @AndrewKilstrom sports@dailybarometer.com

Beavers receive No. 3 national seed, set to begin Corvallis Regional n

OSU baseball ends regular season with comeback win, hosts Texas A&M, UCSB, UTSA in regional this weekend By Warner Strausbaugh The Daily Barometer

The only other time the Oregon State baseball team received a national topeight seed for the NCAA Tournament was in 2005 when the Beavers were No. 8. On Monday, the 2013 squad found out they would receive the program’s second national seed — this time as No. 3. The national seed represents a major advantage, as the Beavers (45-10, 24-6 Pac-12) will host this weekend’s NCAA Regional, and if they get through the four-team field, Goss Stadium will also be the site for the Super Regional. “I liked the draw we got,” said junior pitcher Ben Wetzler. “Being a national seed is huge. We get to play at home in front of our fans so that’s a very nice plus.” The four teams in the Corvallis Regional — seeded within the regional — are No. 1 OSU, No. 2 Texas A&M, No. 3 UC Santa Barbara and No. 4 UT San Antonio. “We’ve got three good teams coming here,” said junior catcher Jake Rodriguez. “It’s the postseason. All the games are going to be intense.” Wetzler said the coaches are still gath-

ering the scouting reports on the three teams, and they will be looking at them on Wednesday and Thursday. The Beavers watched the tournament selection show Monday morning to see which teams would be heading to Corvallis. Wetzler and other teammates were eying one team they wanted to see come to the Corvallis Regional. “It was all exciting,” Wetzler said of the selection show. “We weren’t really sure who [would be in the Corvallis Regional]. I think some of us were hoping Oklahoma State would be in there.” Marty Lees — who was an associate head coach for the Beavers from 20022012 and recruited 10 top-25 recruiting classes in his 11 years with OSU — left last June to become the recruiting coordinator for Oklahoma State. The Cowboys, ranked 20th in the nation, ended up with a No. 3-seed in the Louisville Regional. While the Beavers won’t get to see their former coach, they’re still eager to face the competition coming to town. OSU’s first game will be against UTSA (35-23, 15-11 Western Athletic Conference) at 5 p.m. on Friday. OSU entered last weekend’s final series needing only one win or a loss from Oregon and UCLA to be crowned Pac-12 champions. After a bullpen collapse in the final two innings on Friday night, which led to a 10-9 Washington State win in 11

Ryan Barnes hit a walk-off single to give the Beavers the series win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was huge,â&#x20AC;? said Wetzler, Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting pitcher. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we found out Oregon lost and we had it all wrapped up â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to lose and just be handed the title, you want to go out and win it. Winning the way we did was just more fun than anything. That was a huge confidence boost.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;And you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to end the year on a loss; you want to go out on top,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We definitely made it interesting, but it was a fun way to go out.â&#x20AC;? OSU won nine of its 10 Pac-12 series this season, and taking the series in comeback fashion over WSU surely helped the Beavers land the No. 3 national seed. This team had high expectations to begin the year and may have exceeded them after the 55-game regular season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve worked all year to be able to host a regional, and now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finally here,â&#x20AC;? Rodriguez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great feeling.â&#x20AC;? If the Beavers defeat UTSA on Friday, they will play the winner of Texas A&M (32-27, 13-16 SEC) versus UCSB (34-23, 17-10 Big West) at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Lose, and they play the loser of that game at noon on Saturday. Rodriguez said head coach Pat Casey had set the team goal of hosting an NCAA Regional and Super Regional since last September, as soon as the team started practicing. Beyond those, an even bigger goal is nearing: the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. It will take at least five wins to get there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing to get to Omaha now,â&#x20AC;? Rodriguez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to throw everything youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got at the other team.â&#x20AC;?
