Still no completion date for University Place city editor @jbojesson

West Virginia University officials have said while construction is moving along smoothly, a movein date is yet to be set for the University Place apartment complex.

The University announced on July 14 that it would not be able to finalize the construction in time for fall semester.

“We don’t have a movein date, but as soon as we do, obviously, we’ll get the word out to them,” said Corey Farris, dean of students and director of housing. “The building construction is moving along nicely.”

Farris said the Univer-

sity will take its time to make sure the apartment complex is completely done and move-in ready before students move in.

Some units are close to completion, but everyone will have to wait until the entire complex is constructed.

“We want that move in to be the best experience possible when they come in, but in the meantime we’re still supporting the students 110 percent,” Farris said.

When the University announced the delay last month, students with leases were given three alternative housing locations and had the option to opt out of the lease.

Farris said students and parents have been under-

“For all the students that wanted alternate housing, we were able to offer it and we’ve worked with them to make special arrangements,” he said.

“Most people are excited and quite honestly, they’re appreciative that the University had their backs so to speak and found them a place to live. It was the right thing to do.”

Christy Ciociola signed a lease with University Place because it was one of few housing options that allowed her to move out after the fall semester.

Ciociola said she believes the University handled the situation poorly and gave too short of a

WELLWVU, health services move to new building By taylor mcsorley staff writer @dailyathenaeum

Student Health and WELLWVU: The Students’ Center of Health services are now all located in the new Health and Education Building on the Evansdale Campus adjacent to the Student Rec Center.

The services offered under the Carruth Center branch include psychiatric care, drug and alcohol abuse programs, the Student Assistance Program (SAP) and counseling. The other branch of WELLWVU, the Office of Wellness and Health Promotion is also now located in the new building.

Instead of students having to follow the yellow line through the hospital to get to Student Health, the office is now located on the ground floor of the new CPASS building. The Office of Wellness and Health Promotion is now

The new Health and Education Building is located on the Evansdale Campus near the Student Rec Center. located on the first floor, and the Carruth Center and the Student Assistance Program are on the second.

“I would really like to

stress not only the physical convenience, but also the fact that so many different services are now located all in the same building,” said Alfred Kasprowicz,

director of WVU’s Carruth Center for Psychological and Psychiatric Care. “The two WELLWVU branches will be under the same roof now making all the

offices easy to locate.”

With all the offices in the same location, it will also make it easy for a doctor to walk a student right down the hall to a psychiatrist or to a different WELLWVU department instead of having to send the student across town.

The new environment and convenience of the Health and Education building is a big improvement for WVU’s health services and students say they believes it will affect them positively.

“I’m really happy Student Health has been moved to the new building by the Rec Center, because now it will be so much easier to get there instead of having to go all the way to (the Health Sciences Campus)” said Jessica Lettini, a junior marketing student.

“I think the new location is much better for all the students.”

Along with all the new offices in the Health and Education building, there

will also be a pharmacy which will open later this fall.

“The environment of the new Health and Education Building is so much more student friendly and convenient, having all the necessary student health needs in the same place,” Kasprowicz said. “There is also a caf ecalled the Greenhouse Cafe located on the first floor. That really makes the environment much more relaxed and welcoming.”

There is also a parking garage at the Health and Education Building.

The Student Health Insurance office is another new resource students will be able to have access to. It is located in the WVU Division of Human Resources on the second floor of One Waterfront Place. Students can take the Mountain Line bus to One Waterfront Place or park in the garage. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu

Fair gives students a chance to get acquainted with WVU orgs by alexis randolph staff writer @dailyathenaeum

With the new school year in full-swing, students have the opportunity to become involved with different organizations at West Virginia University.

Throughout the first week of classes, students will be able to stop by the Welcome Week Information Fair in the Mountainlair. The fair will have representatives from various groups and departments to speak to students about how they can get involved.

Erica Bentley, a grants and development administrator for WVU Student Life, said her department is looking to gain more student members.

“We are trying to establish more student philanthropy. We will be doing focus groups this fall, and we are looking to get some students involved,” Bentley said. “We really want students to understand the importance of philanthropy here at WVU and in the community.”

WVU Student Llife is one of many departments seeking to gain student support. Bentley said there is no better time to get involved than now.

“We are in the midst of a capital campaign right now, so it is a great time to be involved,” she said. “We are working to show how private donors can really help out students. Now is the time to get involved.

This is a historic campaign and the biggest thing we have ever done.”

While she said she has not yet gained the support she is hoping for, Bentley said she looks forward to meeting more students in the week to come.

“We haven’t had a lot of students yet, but it is early. And we will be here all week,” Bentley said.

Rebecca Olsavsky, a marketing graduate assistant for WELLWVU: The Students’ Center of Health, said WELLWVU has had a presence at several events in the past weekend.

“Today we are here handing out our calendars for the school year.

Each month, we focus on one of our liveWELL campaigns,” she said. “We also have a few events coming up soon such as Wellness Wednesday on Aug. 27 outside the new Health and Education Building.”

Olsavsky said she has been able to get information to a lot of students.

“We have had a lot of students stopping by to grab information,” Olsavsky said. “A lot of people are coming in, a lot of freshman exploring the Mountainlair and we are just trying to get our name out there.”

Cara Jaskiewicz, a senior public relations student, said she found information she received useful.

“I have stopped by the WVUp All Night booth and WELLWVU,” she said. “I got a calendar, and everyone is really nice and really outgoing. You will really learn a lot, especially the freshman.”

With so much foot traffic, Jaskiewicz said she believes the Mountainlair is

the perfect place to get information out to students.

“This is the perfect location, it is just the main part of campus with students walking back and forth from classes, you’ll catch everyone,” Jaskie-

wicz said.

The fair will be stationed in the Mountainlair from 9 a.m to 5 p.m. for the remainder of the week. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu

College of Law professor publishes book about Jewish-Americans by alyssa lazar staff writer @dailyathenaeum

West Virginia University College of Law professor Michael Blumenthal has published a new book, entitled “The Greatest JewishAmerican Lover in Hungarian History.”

The book is a collection of short stories, in Hungary and other locations including France, Germany and California. The title story is about a man who, in his sexual fantasies, would like to be the greatest Jewish-

submitted

American lover in Hungarian history.

“The book is about the odd mysteries of sexual desire and frustration, the experience of being – and being among – foreigners, the

experience of living in other countries, the mysteries of confronting death, aging, and the (decrease in) sexual desire, the mysteries of marriage and so on,” Blumenthal said.

Blumenthal, who is a Jewish-American himself, said he wrote the book with no intended audience.

“I never, ever have an intended audience. I write for myself and other human beings,” Blumenthal said.

The audience could range from a college student to a teacher to an engineer, he said.

Writing short stories about a man trying to fulfill his sexual desires turned out to be very beneficial and proved to spice up the book itsel, he said.

“It made me laugh and smile sometimes when I was writing them, and I found out some things while writing that I didn’t know before I wrote them,” he said.

He said his inspiration for the book comes from an intricate curiosity for the world and human behavior.

“I was inspired by interests in the complexities of sex, in the complexity of for-

Due to a reporting error in the Aug. 15 edition of The Daily Athenaeum, an article on student health insurance provided incorrect information regarding co-payments with the University health insurance plan. The story should have read: The new plan will have co-pays for various levels of care. As the “designated provider,” the co-pays for WVU Healthcare services will be $10 for a physician’s office visit, $25 for urgent care and $250 for emergency department visits.

There is no deductible when using WVU Healthcare. For more information, and costs of other care plans, visit this page.

Blumenthal was previously the director of creative writing at Harvard University, with a Juris Doctor degree from Cornell University.

“They refunded me on everything, but it was a big deal because they only gave us three other alternatives for it and after the first hour all of them except one were filled,” she said. “I think they knew way before they told us that it wouldn’t be finished so they definitely should have told us sooner.”

University officials said they were monitoring the construction closely during the fall and waited to make a decision to delay the move until they were certain the building would not be complete.

they were making progress and when it became evident to us that they just weren’t going to make it we said, ‘Let’s put together Plan B’,” Farris said.

One way to make it up to the students is to organize the move-in for everyone, free of charge.

The delay will not cost the University any additional money and the only loss of revenue will be from the portion of students that pulled out of their leases.

“They’re paying their part to WVU and we are taking care of them,” Farris said. “The students are still paying rent so it’s not like they are getting a place to live for free. When they move into University Place one of the things we’ll do is help them move their things in for them.”

‘American Horror Story’ to return with freaky season

By Nicole Curtin A&E Writer @Dailyathenaeum

In October 2013, FX filled television sets with a creepy season of “American Horror Story: Coven.”

Each season, AHS presents a new theme and “Coven” followed the footsteps of the first two seasons with plenty of drama and just enough shocking scenes.

The story of “AHS: Coven” follows a group of Salem witches. With few witches left in the world, they want to recruit new girls into the coven before their kind become extinct.

Throughout the season, a group of young girls end up at a school for witches in New Orleans. There, they are supposed to learn how to control their powers.

As you might expect, much more than that happens.

The young witches learn about the powers they have and also about the traditions the Salem witches are trying to save.

The Supreme, Fiona Goode (Jessica Lange) is the most powerful witch

of all. She recognizes the opportunity and visits the school to try and gain control.

Goode sees there is another witch there who is supposed to take her place as Supreme and tries with all her might to keep that from happening.

At the end of the season, Cordelia Goode (Sarah Paulson), who happens to be Fiona’s daughter, becomes the Supreme. Fiona dies of cancer after losing her Supreme status, and two of the young girls become the new council for the Coven.

After the hugely popular “AHS: Coven,” many fans are anxiously waiting for the next season.

“AHS: Freak Show” is set to premiere Oct. 8 at 10 p.m.

The story brings the audience to Jupiter, Florida, in the 1950’s at one of the last freak shows left during the time.

Bearded ladies, Siamese twins, a “clown killer” and a German Lange, who runs the show, are all things to expect for this season.

So far, there are only minimal details from the show’s creators on what to expect.

All the familiar faces,

such as Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Frances Conroy and Sarah Paulson, will grace our screens again.

Viewers should also expect new faces like Jyoti Amge, the world’s smallest woman, Finn Wittrock and Michael Chiklis.

This will be Lange’s last season as part of the cast. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Lange said the six-month time commitment each year is cutting into time for herself. She also said four years has been long enough to stick with one project.

Not too much else has been released about this season, except that there are subplots, including a murder mystery and plots between characters who are having relationships.

Tim Minear revealed on Twitter there is a villain that will apparently “scare the (s---)” out of viewers.

New details will be released as the season draws closer.

“American Horror Story” recently added the world’s smallest woman, Jyoti Amge, to the cast.

Freshmen look forward to new Brian Williams takes on new competition opportunities, ready for change AP

westley thompson

NEW YORK (AP) — Wearing shades as he walked back to work following a pizza lunch recently, Brian Williams ducked into Rockefeller Center and passed a tour guide who noted the celebrity sighting to his group: “Ladies and gentlemen, there’s Tom Brokaw.”

The television business can be humbling, even nearly 10 years after Williams succeeded Brokaw as NBC “Nightly News” anchor. Williams, 55, faces new competition from both ABC and CBS as they look to end NBC’s 256-week streak as the most popular evening newscast.

David Muir takes over after Labor Day as anchor of the second-place “World News” at ABC. Steve Capus, former NBC news president and longtime Williams producer, is in charge behind the scenes as Scott Pelley’s executive producer at the “CBS Evening News.”

“When I started my competition was Dan (Rather) and Peter (Jennings),” Williams said. “That makes me feel old. That gets me on the treadmill every night after work. I am proud of what we’ve built here.”

So far this year, “Nightly News” has averaged 8.9 million viewers and widened its lead over ABC (8 million) and CBS (6.8 million). ABC has gained lately in the 25-to-54-yearold demographic, important to advertisers even as it is a minority of evening news viewers. ABC occasionally wins in that category and, in July, was up 5 percent over last year while NBC was down 4 percent, the Nielsen company said.

“Nightly” is the nodrama newscast at a network where “Today” seeks to regain its mojo against ABC’s ratings leader “Good Morning America” and David Gregory is being replaced by Chuck Todd as moderator of “Meet the Press,” as the venerable Sunday morning show has fallen from first to third place during Gregory’s tenure.

On a summer afternoon, “Nightly” executive producer Patrick Burkey and Williams presided over an afternoon news meeting to go over stories that might squeeze into that evening’s 22-minute news hole. Williams takes some ribbing from Todd over the anchor’s description of colleague Lester Holt “slappin’ the bass” while sitting in with the Roots on the “Tonight” show.

As if to prove a point, Williams repeats the reference on “Nightly.”

The biggest change in the job since Williams took

over has been the immediacy. Burkey said “Nightly” is much more likely than it once was to change its lineup to reflect late-breaking news and frequently updates the telecast for the West Coast. With social media, if Williams says something mildly controversial or a graphic is misspelled, people at “Nightly” hear about it instantly.

While he’s anchoring, TV monitors out of sight of the cameras keep Williams informed of what ABC and CBS are doing on their simultaneous newscasts. Despite this, Williams said it’s important to program his broadcast “with blinders on.

“We don’t know what the competition is going to do,” he said. “While it is true that I am sometimes surprised at the alternatives being offered, it will in no way affect the choices I’m going to make the next day or the day after that.”

That’s polite anchorspeak. Privately, some at NBC express incredulity over some news decisions made over at ABC - such as a recent day when NBC led its newscast with the shooting death of an American two-star general in Afghanistan while “World News” opened with a collision between double-decker buses in New York’s Times Square.

These decisions bear watching, though, since ABC overtook NBC in the morning partly because of a breezier approach that caught NBC flat-footed.

Andrew Tyndall, whose consulting company monitors the content of evening newscasts, said NBC lately seems to be following ABC’s lead by introducing more morning-style elements into the second half of “Nightly,” including social media pieces by Jenna Wolfe and entertainment coverage.

Williams’ spot atop the ratings appears secure, although the change of an anchor lends some mystery to an area of TV where audiences are very loyal.

As Williams finished a second slice of pizza at lunch, he was interrupted by a fellow diner who said she was a fan and thanked Williams for positively representing New Jersey, the state where he has one of his three homes.

“I like that person who just came by,” he said after she leaves the hole-in-thewall pizza joint Williams swears by. “That’s really meaningful to me.”

Health and ratings permitting, Williams doesn’t expect to move onto another job in television news.

Freshman year is an exciting time in life.

For many, it is the first time they are living away from home. For all, it represents an exciting new chapter in life, and acts as a rite of passage from childhood into adulthood.

To see what this year’s freshmen are most excited about, I went to the New Student Welcome event at the Coliseum. I asked the group of new Mountaineers “What are you most excited about?”

The responses ranged widely, and these varied expectations show how much variety Morgantown has to offer.

A lot of new students are looking forward to meeting new people, and they should

be.

In the beginning of freshman year, most people are eager and open to making new connections. Often, the friendships made early on in college can last a lifetime.

Brook Kminski said she was excited about “meeting new people.”

Others are looking forward to using their time between classes for self-improvement.

“I want to go to the Rec Center,” said Jake Martin. “I like lifting weights and am excited to play ball.”

And of course, many new students are excited for the college’s sporting events.

“I’m most excited for the football games,” said Jenna Boram. “I’m really looking forward to being in the student section.”

“Meeting new people and going to all the sporting events.” said Ryan Decker.

For some, a new envi-

ronment, and the independence that comes with it, is the most exciting prospect of freshman year. For upperclassmen, being independent may be taken for granted.

But as Courtney Pyatt said, it’s the little things that count.

“Being able to make my own decisions,” she said.

Events like FallFest are on some of the new students’ minds, especially Hollie Bragg who said it was what she was most excited about.

Students like Megan Abe are excited about being in the city of Morgantown.

“I’m looking forward to the Motown way of life,” she said.

One freshman, Megan Rath, said she is ready to become a presence on the WVU campus.

“I’m on the dance team, so I’m most excited about going to all of the games and being involved with the student

body,” she said.

No matter what the reason, every new student has a lot to be excited about. Some are undoubtedly more nervous than they’re letting on.

But West Virginia University has something to offer everyone, no matter what your hobby is.

Like riding horses? There is a club for it.

Dream of being on a Quidditch team?

There’s even a club for that.

Beyond the many opportunities, our beautiful campus has plenty of people always around who are looking for something to do.

Being a freshman here is certainly a ton of fun. From the looks of it, this incoming class is already very excited for what is to come. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Should lists matter to colleges?

The results are in, and West Virginia University has landed near the top of several lists from The Princeton Review.

Each year, The Princeton Review ranks colleges and universities for various items.

This year, WVU found itself as the No. 4 party school, was ranked for having the third best athletic facilities and the 11th best library.

WVU is ranked 12th for student turnout at athletic

events, sixth for students who study the least and even The Daily Athenaeum is ranked as the eighth best college newspaper.

But do these lists matter?

Sure, some rankings can tarnish the Mountaineer image and others might be something to brag about.

But when it comes down to it, they really don’t mean anything. We’re willing to bet most of the student body at WVU didn’t sit down and weigh their college deci-

Sure, you may have wanted to go to a party school, or always dreamed of sitting in a packed student section in the Coliseum.

Think back to your first

visit to campus. You saw the library first-hand, you may have seen the athletic facilities or maybe you even got to stay a weekend in town and experience Morgantown nightlife.

You didn’t need the

Princeton Review to tell you how great all of those things are, you saw it for yourself.

We all chose WVU for a reason. Do any of the recent rankings change the fact that you are proud to be a Mountaineer?

We aren’t going to lie, it was pretty exciting to be considered one of the top10 college newspapers in the country. But it doesn’t change anything. We still have a commitment to providing the WVU commu-

COMMENTARY

Safety on, off campus should be priority for students

FILE PHOTO

Blue emergency poles are located across campus. In an emergency situation, users simply push a button and are connected with University Police.

Carlee Lammers editor-in-chief @CarleeLammers

I come from a small town where not much happens.

So, four years ago when I moved to Morgantown, this country girl was in a little bit of shock.

Suddenly, things like staying safe on campus and blue emergency poles were things I had to make sure I knew about any time I left the comfort of my residence hall.

Don’t get me wrong, I think campus is safe and the University Police go to great lengths to ensure student safety.

But, in light of recent events, it’s important to be reminded that your safety on and off campus should not be taken lightly.

As someone who has faced some potentially terrible situations, I urge you to at least consider some tips.

I am not your mother, I can’t force you to do any of these, but maybe we should all think about our moms before we make a decision.

First, always, always, al-

ways plan a safe way to get home. We’re fortunate in Morgantown to have a variety of services. Some of them are even free for students, so be sure to utilize them any opportunity you get.

As University Police Chief Bob Roberts said, have a “designated walker.” This is someone sober who you trust to walk home with you. Never walk alone. If worst comes to worst, call University Police and have them take you home. Like I said, student safety is a top priority.

There’s even a free Cam-

pus PM Mountain Line bus route to get you home safely.

“But I drove my car downtown, so I have to drive home. I can’t get a parking ticket.” Wrong.

Call Morgantown’s designated driver service, DubV Safe Ride, and they’ll take it home for you. Call them at 304-777-9996.

There is zero excuse to drink and drive. Ever.

If you’re going to head downtown to a bar or house party, make sure you are with people you can trust.

College is a great time to meet people, and what better way to meet some-

one than at a club or house party?

The last thing you want is to be drunk and alone because the group of people you went with decided to go missing in action.

Always lock your doors and don’t leave any valuable in plain sight. Most breakins are ones where perpetrators see an opportunity, like an unlocked car.

The WVU Police Department’s phone number is conveniently located on the back of your student ID. WVU even has an app to help keep students safe and ensure safety while on cam-

pus. You can download the LiveSafe app from the App Store.

And if that isn’t enough, there are blue emergency poles all over campus where, at the push of a button, University Police are at your disposal.

When it comes down to it, all of this is common sense. Sometimes, though, it’s easy to lose sight of common sense. Don’t get me wrong, it’s OK to go out or walk home late from the library – you just have to be safe and smart about it. carlee.lammers@mail.wvu.edu

A guide to saving money on textbooks in 2014 Som Kandlur K-State Collegian

With the new semester starting, students at KState will face the all too familiar pain that comes with buying textbooks. In its guide to understanding college costs, The College Board, an organization that promotes higher education and administers the SAT, advised students to budget approximately $1,200 each year for textbooks and other course materials. With textbooks becoming such a financial burden, it’s no wonder students dread the process of buying them each semester.

The costs of textbooks are high, but they are a necessity. However, using these steps will help ensure that you buy textbooks in the most cost-

DA

effective and stress-free manner.

Shop online: Despite being the most convenient place to buy textbooks due to its location, the local book store is typically not the best place to buy them. Bookstores in college towns are notorious for being the least student friendly environments in which to buy and sell textbooks. The prices are often higher than online retailers and you only get a fraction of what you paid for when you sell the books back. The most costeffective way of purchasing textbooks is to buy them online. Online retailers such as Amazon, Chegg and Half.com are more competitive with their pricing when it comes to buying, renting and selling books. Price comparison tools such as booksprice. com allow you to compare multiple online offers for

the same book to find the best price.

Rent books: Renting textbooks is a great way to save money as opposed to buying them.

In a December 2010 post on Mint.com, a financial management program, titled “Is Renting Textbooks Really Cheaper Than Buying Them?” author Reyna Gobel argues that in multiple scenarios, renting textbooks at half or even 75 percent of the price of a new book is worth the expense. The prices of book rentals vary depending on the book and whether you rent a new or used copy, but rentals are almost always cheaper than buying a new book. Online book vendors rent books at competitive prices and often offer free return shipping.

Renting books is typically cheaper, but you also need to take extra care of rental books so that you

don’t lose any money when you return them. Another disadvantage with rental books is that resale is not an option. To save on costs while not having to deal with returning books, you could also try buying used books.

Used books: Used books can save you a fortune, and, if they’re in good condition, used books are usually worth the price. Buying used books either from friends or online vendors has become incredibly easy over the years. At K-State, you can find multiple Facebook groups, Criagslist posts and websites dedicated to facilitating book sales between students where prices are often lower than those at the campus bookstore. Online vendors also often include ratings, the condition of the book and special offers which may factor into

making a decision that is right for you.

Buy older versions: Buying an older version of a textbook is another good option, but it is also a bit tricky. In some cases, the change in content between an older and newer version of a textbook is minimal. When this is the case, it is easy to coordinate with the teacher and other students to bridge the gap between the two versions. In other cases, the newer version of a textbook can be vastly different from the older version and bridging the gap becomes a lot more difficult. The best way to determine if buying an older version is worth it is talking to your instructor before you buy it.

Considering when to buy new: While renting or buying used books can save you money, for some classes

buying a new book might be worth the cost. Textbooks for certain classes such as core classes in your major could be useful as reference materials beyond the duration of the semester or even your time in college. In these cases, textbooks should be treated as an investment in your future rather than a burden to be borne during the semester.

Ultimately, it all comes down to asking yourself whether the cost is worth the benefit. Buying a new textbook is incredibly convenient and the most effective way to stay up to date in class. However, it is also often extremely expensive. By spending a bit more time planning, researching and coordinating with other students and teachers, you can save a lot of money on a necessary expense while acquiring valuable information.

Students enjoy Magic!, Dierks Bentley, Kendrick Lamar despite rain Ashley Denardo Associate A&E Editor @AMDENARDO

Students crowded outside of the Mountainlair for this year’s FallFest concert, donning summer attire and sunny dispositions.

Bustling through the security and staff, they raced to get in line for the festivities.

Some students resorted to partying on the sidewalk outside of the fraternities. Some watched from residence hall windows.

“I like it because I get to see famous people,” said Allie Nwosu, a psychology student.

Everyone seemed to have a good time, singing along to MAGIC!’s hit “Rude,” swaying to the southern sounds of Dierks Bentley and bobbing along to Kendrick Lamar’s hip-hop beats.

The rain didn’t deter the Students enjoy a better view of Kendrick Lamar’s performance. crowd from the sights and sounds of FallFest.

Cheers echoed down North High Street getting louder as the night progressed.

“Dierks should have been last,” said Jesse Grossman, an electrical engineering student.

“Country music is much more appealing to this crowd than rap.”

No matter which act audience members preferred, they all agreed on one thing: FallFest is how you begin the new academic year in style.

It’s an event that most students believe everyone should attend at least once.

A civil Engineering student, Olivia Bodnar, said, “I love FallFest because it’s an undeniable atmosphere of good vibes, necessary to get into the right state of mind before kicking off classes.”

Nursing student Madison Wilcox said she loved FallFest and that is was simply perfect. ashley.denardo@mail.wvu.edu

WVU professor Amastutz presents piano recital by joan conte correspondent @dailyathenaeum

West Virginia University music professor, Peter Amstutz, presents his piano recital in the Bloch Learning and Performance Hall tonight at 7:30 p.m.

He began to play the piano at 5-years-old, and now Amstutz is critically acclaimed.

The New York Times said he has a “sweetly singing tone.”

Further, The Edinburgh, Evening News said he is

“Fresh and stylish…a fine performance.”

Amstutz will perform the program he played when touring Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia this summer for recitals and master classes.

The program includes a mix of songs, including “Hungarian Rhapsody No. 3” by Franz Liszt, “Sechs Bagatellen, Op. 126” by Ludwig van Beethoven, “Long Ago,” an improvisation by Amstutz, “Pavane and Galliard (Earle of Salisbury) by William Byrd and “The Serpent’s Kiss” by William Bolcom.

Tattuesday

The mixture includes classic songs from composers Liszt and Beethoven, as well as modern music by William Bolcom.

William Bolcom’s “The Serpent’s Kiss” comes from a book made of four ragtime pieces, each meant to turn the fall of man into a piano production.

This book was titled “The Garden of Eden” and was published in the early 20th Century.

When asked why he chose this program for the recital, Amstutz said it was the variety of styles within the songs.

scious decision to base the entire performance around this selection. He attributed this, not only to the genius of the composition, but something deeper.

“Beethoven found a window into a better world,” Amstutz said.

He said he wants to bring a part of it back to the audience in his performance.

Amstutz has studied in Austria and has also toured in Europe, the United States and Asia.

He also has served as a judge for the National Piano Festival in Malaysia and for

the William S. Boyd International Piano Competition, according to a release on WVU Today.

He is a prizewinner in the Maryland International Piano Competition and a medalist in the Casagrande International Piano Competition in Italy.

Amstutz’s performance will be the first this semester at the CAC and is an opening for all the events there this academic year.

Amstutz said he is hopeful that a lot of people will attend. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Camp Barefoot 8 brings independent musicians to W.Va. by jake jarvis

Veronica Klein, a history and German student, has an intricate tattoo spead across her shoulder in honor of her father. “When my father was diagnosed with cancer I got it to signify his love for the sea and boating,” Klein said.

The program of diverse sounds will lead up to the finale of Beethoven’s “Sonata No.32 in C Minor Op. 111. “ “Sonata No.32” was the final sonata Beethoven wrote and one of his last works for the piano.

The Sonata was written in the early 1800s when Beethoven was already completely deaf.

Amstutz said that Beethoven’s piece is the center of the recital because it is “an amazing and expressive piece with immense content emotionally.”

Amstutz made the con-

Just 10 years ago, 300 people gathered for a private party in a friend’s backyard. Ten years later, the Camp Barefoot 8 Music and Arts Festival has grown exponentially.

Camp Barefoot will entertain music lovers Thursday through Saturday in Bartow, W.Va. “We all come together to create a community that we would want to attend and pass along to those fans that love independent music and intimate settings,” said Scott McClain, Camp Barefoot founder and organizer.

McClain said the festival primarily focuses on showcasing new, independent music with select features of national acts in the

evening.

More than 1,000 bands reached out to be a part of the festival.

A panel of Camp Barefoot’s management assembles a list of acts they’d like to see perform. From there, McClain is the one who persuades acts to perform.

This year, 55 acts will perform, including Beats Antique, Papadosio, Lettuce and the Kyle Hollingsworth Band with the Motet Horns.

“We couldnt do this festival without our superfans, staff that volunteer and the community that has expanded over the years,” McClain said.

This year, Camp Barefoot will also offer yoga. McClain said many of the festival’s loyal fans have been requesting this addition for

years.

Aura Glow Yoga will offer a class from 10-11:30 a.m. each day of the festival.

“We’re super excited as this brings the audience closer to our community and hopefully gives them a relaxing experience as well,” McClain said.

Slackline will also be one of the featured activities at the venue.

A music festival wouldn’t be complete without camping under the stars. Camp Barefoot is no exception.

“People will love camping here in the beautiful mountains of Pocahontas County,” McClain said. “They will hopefully see unbelievable skies and stars for miles at night.”

“In the morning, the beautiful view of the fog rolling over the mountains into the valley while dew is

still settling is truly an experience to partake.”

For those who have never attended an event like this, McLain said he suggests festival-goers bring extra socks and warm clothing to combat the drop in temperature in the evening.

Festival-goers, having once entered the festival grounds Thursday, will not be permitted to leave until Saturday morning. After exiting festival grounds, there will be a $5 reentry fee.

According to the festival’s website, this rule was implemented for traffic safety.

Tickets for the festival are available for purchase at http://campbarefoot. org/CB8/tickets/. They are only available on a will call basis. jajarvis@mail.wvu.edu

CONNOR MURRAY SPORTS EDITOR @ConnorKMurray

WVU offense filled with young talent For the last year and a half, West Virginia has been trying to replace the trio of Geno Smith, Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey.

The task has been easier said than done, as many predicted it would be. After years of being an offensive juggernaut with that trio leading the way, West Virginia has struggled to keep up at times in the Big 12.

While the last two seasons have been an adventure for head coach Dana Holgorsen and the West Virginia offense, there appears to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Holgorsen and the rest of his coaching staff have put together consecutive impressive recruiting classes, while compiling some talent from transfers. They have set the West Virginia offense up for an explosion in the near future.

Freshman quarterback William Crest highlights the most recent class of recruits. With plenty of hype surrounding him before he has even seen any game action, Crest could contribute to West Virginia’s offense right away.

Although there is no question this is still Clint Trickett’s team, Crest brings next-level athleticism to the table and could be a major headache for Big 12 defenses, even before he has a deep understanding of West Virginia’s offense.

As Holgorsen has said, Crest’s head must be spinning at the moment. It will take time for him to become as well-versed on WVU’s playbook as veterans Trickett and Paul Millard, but once he puts in the time, the results could be eye-popping.

Quarterback isn’t the only position where the Mountaineers appear to be set up for the future. The Mountaineers have a quartet of freshman receivers in Shelton Gibson, Ricky Rogers, Lamar Parker and Jacky Marcellus, who will be able to sit back and learn from veterans like Kevin White and Mario Alford, early in their careers.

Marcellus will miss the season due to a knee injury that requires surgery, but the other three freshman receivers will be able to gain Big 12 experience and set themselves up to be major contributors in the near future.

The Mountaineers’ young receivers need to look no further than sophomore Daikiel Shorts for an example of what in-game experience can do for a player.

Shorts grabbed opportunity by the horns in 2013, hauling in 45 receptions for 495 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman.

Despite working with three different quarterbacks throughout the year, Shorts established himself as a reliable target and was a constant threat in the quick passing game.

A similar role could await for one - if not all - of West Virginia’s freshman receivers during the 2014 season.

While veterans occupy the top of West Virginia’s running back depth chart, freshman Dontae Thomas-Williams is waiting in the wings.

WVU’s coaching staff may even decide to redshirt Thomas-Williams this season, but more time in the team’s weight and film rooms are going to do nothing but help the four-star recruit from Durham, NC. Listed at 6-foot, 211 pounds, Thomas-Williams is a sight to behold as a true freshman. Just for context, Dreamius Smith - who has a reputation for lowering his shoulder and thumping opposing defenses – checks in at 215 pounds.

Give Thomas-Williams a full year to learn West Virginia’s offense and beef up even more under the guidance of strength and conditioning coach Mike Joseph and he could be a major threat in upcoming years. connor.murray@mail.wvu.edu

COMING UP ROSES

Defensive lineman Kyle Rose (No. 93) celebrates a victory over TCU with his teammates in 2013.

Junior Kyle Rose spearheads West Virginia run defense, pass rush on defensive line by dillon durst sports writer @dailyathaeum

Kyle Rose isn’t a hard guy to find.

Whether it’s on the field during a game or in the team room during player interview sessions, Rose has a presence that’s hard to ignore.

The 6-foot-4, 298 pound defensive lineman from Centerville, Ohio won’t be hard to find on Saturdays this season, as the rising junior switches from defensive end to nose tackle in an improved multischeme, three-man front defense.

From his spot at nose tackle, which is positioned head up on the center in the middle of the defensive line, Rose along with the two defensive ends will be charged mainly with stopping the opponents run game and getting a pass rush.

Defensive coordinator Tony Gibson said he doesn’t want teams to be able to run the ball against the defense this season.

Rose said it’ll make the linebackers and secondary’s jobs much easier defending the pass.

“This is a passing

league, but last year Baylor ran the ball on us (476 rushing yards),” Rose said.

“So if we stop the run, then that makes the offense have to try to pass the ball.

And by dropping eight we have an advantage. So, if we can stop the run with three, drop eight, we have an advantage against the pass.”

Of course this is much easier said than done, but Rose said he believes the defense will be improved from last year mainly because an emphasis is now being placed on every man doing his own job.

“I think guys got out of their assignment and tried to make the play themselves,” he said about last year’s defensive mishaps.

“You just got to do your own job. Don’t do somebody else’s job. Because, you know, if 10 guys are playing the right defense and one guy’s playing the wrong defense, then everybody’s playing the wrong defense.”

Over the winter, the defense went through a major overhaul as far as adjusting the scheme goes.

Tony Gibson was promoted to revamp a defense that was No. 101 in total defense last season,

Kyle Rose tries to work around a block against Texas in 2013. and head coach Dana Holgorsen also added formerPenn State assistant Tom Bradley and former WVU linebacker Damon Cogdell to the staff to coach the defensive line.

“Coach Gibby, (Gibson) he’s a fiery guy,” Rose said.

“I can speak for our room, having coach Cogdell and

coach Bradley, they both feed off of each other and kind of make each other better coaches which helps us because we get the best out of them.”

Changes could be in store for college soccer

BY Kevin Hooker Sports Writer @DailyAthenaeum

One of the more popular debates in men’s college soccer is making the sport span across the full academic year.

Under the current system, teams can play at least two preseason games and 24 games between the months of August and November.

But in the new proposed model, the same model used in the MLS and several other professional leagues, teams would open training camp at the end of August, training camp currently is late July to late August. They will play two exhibitions, followed by 13 matches from mid-September until the middle of November.

Winter break would occur from late November until late February and teams would be allowed to have up to eight hour-long training sessions. Spring training would commence toward the end of February and include an exhibition game.

The season would resume again in mid-March and include nine regular-season

matches, plus any conference or NCAA Tournament matches.

Several soccer proponents, including WVU Director of Athletics Oliver Luck, men’s soccer coach Marlon LeBlanc and junior midfielder Jamie Meriam, have all expressed support for this change.

“I think it would be huge because around the world, soccer is not crammed into the fall like the college game is right now,” Merriam said.

“You have three months to play 20 games, plus whatever playoffs. With the new schedule you have a lot more time, especially if you suffer an injury.”

With the gap in between games, players would have more time to recovery from injury or general fatigue.

“When kids get injured now they’re going to treatment three times a day because they want to be healthy in order to play on (game days),” Merriam said.

“With this, you have an opportunity to think about it. I could say that I’m going to miss five games this fall, but I have nine in the spring, so I’m going to take my time

Football

Special teams’ bond goes far beyond playing field

Redshirt sophomore kicker Josh Lambert attempts a field goal during a game in 2013.

By Anthony Pecoraro Associate Sports Editor @AnthonyPecoraro

During the 2013 West Virginia football season – when things weren’t going so well for the Mountaineers on the field during the dog days of October and November – one part of the team stood out from the rest.

WVU’s special teams stood out, and for the most part, it was for all the right reasons.

The group, which consists of junior punter Nick O’Toole, redshirt soph-

omore kicker Josh Lambert, junior long snapper John DePalma, redshirt senior kicker Michael Molinari and redshirt freshman kicker Mike Molina, have been able to bond during their first full year together, and said they will reach new heights this season.

O’Toole and Lambert formed an extremely strong bond with the whole special teams group a year ago.

Special teams and safeties coach Joe DeForest said developing chemistry is all part of the entire group jelling with each other. “(Just a year of being)

together as a unit and getting to know each other and their work habits and their work ethics – just sort of jelling as a group now,” DeForest said.

DeForest said what has developed with this group of guys is special, but it’s what is needed to succeed as a team when the personalities of each player vary so greatly.

“Just like any position group – the holder, the snapper, the kicker and the punter – have to do the same thing and know each other’s strengths and weaknesses and work off of them

and I think they’ve done a nice job of that. I’m very confident,” he said.

By understanding the expectations DeForest has of his special teams’ members, O’Toole said being on the same page as a unit is not difficult at all for them.

They all work together as one day in and day out.

“I just feel that all of our specialists – me, Josh (Lambert), Mike (Molinari) – all of us just bring enthusiasm and we work hard in the weight room,” he said.

“It’s just a good competition between all the kickers and punters. I just think we

bring out the best in each other.”

Seeing the close bond that has formed throughout the past year with these players, DeForest said chemistry like this is great, but it should come fairly easy if players love their teammates and trust in them at all times.

“I think anytime you trust your teammate and you love your teammate, that you’ll work harder to do the extra things in order to not let him down,” he said. “That’s the bond we’ve developed there and they’ve developed on their

own, obviously.

“But I think those are the types of things that will carry on to the field – not only with them, but with every positon group and the team as a whole.”

Another factor playing into the team’s chemistry is that many of the special teams players are roommates. O’Toole said it can get heated quickly in the apartment.

“When you get all four of us playing FIFA or something, the colors definitely are flying,” he said. anthony.pecoraro@mail.wvu.edu

Volleyball

Konstantinidou looks to bring past experience to WVU by nicole curtin sports writer @dailyathenaeum

West Virginia University volleyball’s Lamprini Konstantinidou is one of several players on this year’s squad to come to Morgantown from overseas.

Before coming to Morgantown, Konstantinidou played for the Greece Se-

nior National Team. She recorded 12 appearances with the team and had 50 appearances with the Greece Junior National team.

While playing for Senior National Team, she helped her team to a fifth place finish at the 2013 European championship in Montenegro. Konstantinidou was also on

the team when it placed fourth at the 2012 Balkan Championship.

Her journey to WVU began last year when she was playing for the Senior National Team and head coach Jill Kramer reached out to her.

“They gave me an envelope with phone numbers, emails – all that stuff. To be honest, I didn’t want to come here at first,” Konstantinidou said. “It’s so far from my home, but then I started talking with Jill (Kramer) and all the coaching staff.”

Kramer went to Greece and visited Konstantinidou before she came to visit WVU. “It was awesome,” Kramer said. “I got an opportunity to watch her play and meet her family.

I think that’s important, they have to know they are sending their child to a place where someone is going to take care of them and that was my goal.”

Konstantinidou said she was nervous at first coming so far from home for her visit and when practice would begin.

“When I came for the official visit, I didn’t understand like anything,” she said. “The first week here was hard, I mean I understand, but I don’t want to speak because I think I’m wrong. Every day is better for me, the girls help me a lot.”

This is not the first time an international student has joined the Mountaineer squad. Kramer said the language barrier has not been much of

an issue while coaching Konstantinidou.

“I’ve been pretty used to making sure that things are understood before I move quickly on to something else,” she said. “Part of it is her and Polly (Jeliazkova) both speak very, very good English so they’ve been great in the gym.”

After their first weekand a half of practice are over, Kramer said things are looking positive with Konstantinidou on the team.

“She’s acclimated really quickly, with respect to everyone that’s been here before. I’ve never had a player not from here acclimate so quickly,” she said.

“She pays really close attention and gets the feel of things really quickly and

can just go right to work.”

Konstantinidou will have her Mountaineer debut this weekend at the Blue and Gold Scrimmage Saturday, at 4 p.m. at the Coliseum. Along with getting out on the court there is another thing she can’t wait for.

“I’m waiting for my mom too, she’s going to be here for the first match on the 29th,” she said.

Konstantinidou is a general studies student.

She comes from a family of four in Thessaloniki, Greece, where she was also on the club volleyball team. Her mother, Liana, was a volleyball player, as well, which is why she said she started playing the sport. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Hendricks, Baez help Chicago beat New York 4-1

AP

Javier Baez follows through on a swing Monday.

NEW YORK (AP) — Kyle Hendricks and two relievers held New York to four or fewer hits for the fifth straight game, Anthony Rizzo and Javier Baez homered, and the Chicago Cubs rallied for a 4-1 victory over the Mets on Monday.

Hendricks (5-1) gave up just three hits in seven innings, allowing only Lucas Duda’s home run in the fourth. The rookie righthander won his fourth straight start – yielding four earned runs over 29 1-3 innings.

Neil Ramirez struck out two in a perfect eighth and Hector Rondon allowed a leadoff double but finished the four-hitter for his 18th save.

The Cubs came back once Carlos Torres, making a spot start for Bartolo

Colon, was done after five innings.

Luis Valbuena, who had three hits, had a tying single in the sixth. Rizzo connected off Buddy Carlyle (2-0) in the eighth for his 28th homer.

Baez then hit a two-run shot in the ninth off closer Jenrry Mejia into the second deck in left field for his fifth homer in his 60th career at-bat.

The Mets had only 16 hits but split the four-game series with the Cubs. The five-game run matches the club’s longest streak. They also went five games with no more than four hits in 2004 and 1963.

The only time since 1914 the Cubs gave up four or fewer hits in four straight games was in 1983.

The 41-year-old Colon

had to return to the Dominican Republic, where his mother was sick, forcing the durable Torres to make his first start since Sept. 27. He yielded three hits.

Torres became the first pitcher to start on no days’ rest since the Angels’ Billy Buckner did it June 25, 26 of last year. Torres threw nine pitches in facing two batters in the Mets’ 2-1 loss Sunday.

He struck out six – including the side in the first – and walked two on 84 pitches.

TRAINER’S ROOM Cubs: OF Chris Coghlan was out of the starting lineup. “We’ve been pushing him pretty hard,” manager Rick Renteria said.

Coghlan has been playing with a sore left big toe. As a

pinch hitter, he grounded out with the bases loaded in the seventh.

Mets: RHP Daisuke Matsuzaka could be activated from the DL to replace Colon. Matsuzaka (elbow inflammation) made a rehab start Saturday, allowing one run and three hits over six innings for Double-A Binghamton. He threw 69 pitches.

UP NEXT Cubs: LHP Tsuyoshi Wada (2-1) will make his seventh big league start when Cubs host the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. Wada had Tommy John surgery in May 2012.

Mets: RHP Dillon Gee (4-5) is set for his first start at the Oakland Coliseum.

He gave up four runs in four innings vs. the A’s at Citi Field on June 21, 2011. Javier Baez (left) and Starlin Castro (right) celebrate the Cubs win Monday.

Tricky 18th hole helps Villegas win Wyndham

Camilo Villegas eyes his shot at the Wyndham Classic GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) into trouble on the final — Camilo Villegas got hole.

“I thought somebody some help from an unlikely source on his way to was going to get a birdie his first victory in a while. on 18,” Villegas said.

The tricky 18th hole at Nobody who could catch Sedgefield Country Club him did.

That gave the Colomtripped up his top two challengers. bian $954,000 in prize Villegas won the Wyn- money and 500 FedEx Cup dham Championship by a points in the final regularstroke Sunday for his first season event. on the PGA Tour since Villegas had four birdies 2010 after Freddie Jacob- and an eagle on the front son and Nick Watney ran nine, added a birdie on the

par-5 15th and watched the rest of the tournament from the air-conditioned scorer’s tent with his caddie.

“I was hoping for a playoff,” Villegas said.

Turns out, he didn’t have to hit another shot, not after the rest of the field struggled late. Instead, he earned his fourth PGA Tour title and first since the 2010 Honda Classic.

He also became the sec-

ond first-round leader to win this tournament since its 2008 move back to Sedgefield and first since Arjun Atwal in 2010.

Bill Haas (64) and Jacobson (66) tied for second.

Jacobson needed a par on the final hole to force a playoff, but he rolled his 11-foot putt inches past the hole.

“It really sucks when you play solid all day and, you know, I really thought it

was my day coming in,” Jacobson said. “All I needed was a solid strike to get up there and good feed in and have a good chance of winning.”

Heath Slocum (67) was two strokes back. Brandt Snedeker (67), Webb Simpson (67) and thirdround leader Watney (70) were at 14 under.

Villegas had to wait about 40 minutes after his round ended before his

victory was secure.

He closed his round with three straight pars, tapping in from about 2 feet on 18 and hoping it was good enough.

It was – once the crowd thinned itself out.

“When the boys got closer to the last hole, you can get a little anxious,” Villegas said. “You don’t have a golf club in your hand. You can’t really control it.”
