I-79 exit project slated for summer 2014 by hilary kinney staff writer @dailyathenaum

PROJECT

transportation.wv.gov

A public meeting was held at the Coliseum Wednesday to discuss a major highway addition to I-79, which is predicted to begin in summer 2014. A new interchange will be constructed between the Westover and Star City exits. The project will connect two new roads: one is a relocated County Route 46/3 and the other is an extension of University Town Centre Drive.

SGA talks possible ‘good Samaritan’ policy by sam bosserman staff writer @dailyathenaeum

The West Virginia University Student Government Association’s role as student advocates took center stage at their regular Wednesday night meeting as they discussed several pressing issues relating to students. All those presenting at the meeting stressed the importance of students making their opinions known to school administrator. SGA officials said they would like to see strong student support for a push to adopt a “good Samaritan” policy. The policy would have school officials grant amnesty to students who call into 911 in cases in which they feel their friends’ lives are at risk. BOG member Evan McIntyre said the policy is squarely focused on ensuring student safety and making sure those in dire need of medical attention receive it. “The ‘good Samaritan’ policy is indicating to students that, while it’s not okay to drink (underage), if there is ever a time they are afraid for a friend’s life, they should call 911 and not be afraid of legal repercussions,” he said. According to McIntyre, students can sometimes be hesitant to call the authorities during questionable situations for fear of receiving a citation or other consequences of illegal activity. “A lot of time at WVU, not only does an ambulance show up, a police officer does, as well,” McIntyre said. “What SGA is perpetuating is that our No. 1 concern is student health and safety.” SGA members will vote on a resolution supporting the creation of a “good Samaritan” policy at WVU during next week’s regular SGA meeting. SGA officials said they also need students’ support to use the space in-

travel this section of I-79.” Dirar also said the length of the project will most likely last for approximately two years. Part of the new interchange will include a roundabout, a familiar traffic pattern to residents in Morgantown who frequent the intersection of Mileground Road and Route 705, which opened in 2013. “We’ve gotten really good feedback about the other roundabout in Morgantown,” said Greg

side E. Moore Hall for student recreational classes. BOG member Afsheen Misaghi said acquiring space inside the hall for classes which would benefit those who cannot get to the Student Recreation Center early in the morning. Misaghi said he was being stonewalled by administrators inside the College of Physical Activity and Sports Sciences, which controls the space. “The CPASS school is not budging on this. They want to keep tight control over the space because they’re making money on it,” he said. According to Misaghi, CPASS currently rents out the space to various organizations from 8 a.m. -8 p.m. Misaghi said he wants to utilize the space around 6 a.m.-7 a.m. Misaghi said he has been promised that classes found in the SRC will be held downtown if a space is acquired. “We’re not asking for anything extraordinary. W are asking for space at odd hours where students will be able to effectively utilize it,” Misaghi said. “We pay student fees … Why can’t we receive the services we are paying for?” He said WVU students who support having downtown morning recreational classes should email school administrators and sign a petition supporting the effort. SGA officials announced their success in setting up nutrition classes, which will be open to all WVU students. Meredith Chapman, SGA Director of Nutrition, said the classes are designed for students who are no longer on meal plan and are now cooking in their own kitchens. “The focus will be on (meals) that are cheap and efficient for those on a student’s budget ... All the meals are designed to be healthy,” Chapman

Dirar Ahmed, review section head of the engineering division of the West Virginia Division of Highways, said there are a few reasons behind the construction of the new interchange. “We already have congestion at those two interchanges (Star City and Westover). Then, going into Town Centre Drive, there is congestion over there, too,” Dirar said. “By putting an interchange that will serve in between them, it will relieve the pressure of the traffic. It will make it easier and safer for the public to

In December 2013, the West Virginia University Student Government Association selected three students to serve on the WVU presidential search committee. Each student has met with The Daily Athenaeum in order to share their stories, their role on the committee and give WVU students a better sense of who has been selected to be their voice in the preisdential search process. Throughout the remainder of the week, we will feature each of the students selected. It’s something about extension services, it’s something about land-grant institutions, and it’s something about Morgantown that have shaped Paul Garton into the person he is today. “4-H was actually my first introduction to WVU, through the WVU Extension Service,” the senior philosophy and international studies student said. “I grew up in Extension. And then I came to WVU freshman year, and I really fell in love with it here. WVU nurtured a love for the entire state and Appalachia for me.” Garton, who is from Jane Lew, W.Va., has been selected to serve on the WVU presidential search committee. He was also named as Mr. Mountaineer for the 2013-14 academic year. Throughout his entire life, Garton said he had a special appreciation for the WVU Extension Service and the concept of a land-grant institution. It’s something instilled in him through participating in 4-H and his mother’s former job as an Extension agent in Taylor County. The WVU Extension Service originated as an agricultural-based program, but has now extended to all 55 counties and offers programs including youth development, family and health information, and resources on nutrition and agriculture. After graduating from WVU, Garton said he hopes to earn a master’s degree at the University of Maryland and his doctorate at the University of Georgia – both land-grant institutions. Garton said land-grant institutions are something near and dear to him, and something he wants WVU’s next president to love and appreciate, as well. “I really think the land-grant mission is something worth pursuing, and I just want to do everything in my power to help WVU and land-grants all across the nation,” he said. “(Land-grants) opened up the doors for higher education for people like me who can’t afford it.” When looking for potential presidential candidates, Garton said he also wants a leader who can think beyond WVU and look at the broader perspective of the entire state. “I think it’s very important to consider the broader picture beyond just WVU,” he said. “Since WVU is such a large institution and so

WELLWVU works to improve student eating habits by isabella Gilbert correspondent @dailyathenaeum

Convenience is often the basis of college student eating habits. Think that granola bar makes a suitable breakfast? Think again. Shannon Foster, the student health education specialist at WELLWVU: The Students’ Center of Health, said granola bars will only make the consumer’s blood sugar rise, spike and eventually crash. The brain runs on glucose, which is needed to get through the day, according to Foster. “It’s all about sustained energy,” she said. “Keeping your body sustained with food stops people from being

starved and grabbing the first piece of food they see.” Foster said protein and slow digesting carbs are a good way to start the day and get metabolism going. “You eat what’s in front of you,” said Donnie Platt, a master’s student of athletic coaching and wellness coordinator for Arnold Hall. As someone hired through WVU Residential Education, Platt lives in the residence halls and works closely with WELLWVU to help students reach their health goals, and uses this opportunity to observe the kinds of food students consume daily. Platt said a lot of food in the dining halls should be eaten sparingly, such as the desserts made “plentiful” by the dining services. He also said food in

the dining halls is typically excessive in butter and fat. As a solution, Foster said students can get ideas from “Healthy U” and recommends around half of a student’s plate should be fruits and vegetables. “Very few adults eat the number of servings of fruits and vegetables that their bodies actually need,” Foster said. Only 5 percent of the WVU student body eat the 5-9 recommended servings of fruits and vegetables a day. To combat this issue, Foster and WELLWVU will celebrate eatWELL during January, with social marketing campaigns that will include the slogan “5 freg a day,” (5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day) to

‘Miracle on the Hudson’ survivors mark 5 years

In this Jan. 15, 2009 photo, passengers in an inflatable raft move away from US Airways Flight 1549 that went down in the Hudson River in New York. Capt. Chesley ‘Sully’ Sullenberger III, First Officer Jeff Skiles and some passengers who were on the plane Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2014 are expected to join some of the ferry crews who rescued them from the cold waters five years ago. NEW YORK (AP) — The pilots and some passengers on a plane that made an extraordinary landing on the Hudson River marked the fifth anniversary of that remarkable event on Wednesday, giving thanks to those who kept everyone on the flight alive. “I’m filled with joy and gratitude about what was able to be accomplished by so many five years ago today and the fact that all 155 passengers and crew are here today because

of it,” said Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger III, who gained instant fame for his calm handling of US Airways flight 1549. The flight had just taken off from LaGuardia Airport when a flock of geese disabled the engines. Sullenberger safely glided to a water landing and all 155 passengers and crew members were rescued in what became known as the “miracle on the Hudson.” Sullenberger and about a half-dozen passengers gathered at the NY Wa-

terway ferry terminal to thank the ferry boat company, whose boats quickly got to the downed plane and rescued people. They then boarded a boat and sailed out to the area of the landing, where they raised a toast. Five years later, “it feels like yesterday, every day,” said passenger Denise Lockie, of Charlotte, N.C. “It’s a miracle and I’m just glad I’m here.” Passenger Barry Leonard, of Charlotte, said those on the plane have

seen children and grandchildren born in the past five years. “It made me think about things in a different way, no doubt,” he said. The incident also led to changes in how the airline industry deals with bird strikes, said Michael Begier, national coordinator of the Airport Wildlife Hazards Program run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It brought the idea that bird strikes can be dan-

gerous to planes solidly into public consciousness, he said, leading to an increased willingness among airports and airlines to report bird strike incidents. By having more strike data, the government is better able to gauge how wildlife should be managed in the regions around airports, he said. For example, he noted that even though more strikes are being reported at airports, the number of strikes that have

caused damage is on the decline. But Begier said the number of damaging strikes in areas outside of airports, which planes cross through in ascents and descents, are not declining. The Department of Agriculture was also given a recommendation after the crash to look into other possible ways to deal with birds, like using the plane lighting systems already in place or looking into using bird-detecting radar.

eat

According to WELLWVU, the only way to lose weight and keep it off is to burn more calories than you eat, and burning calories is related to your age, gender and how much you exercise. Though Foster and WELLWVU cannot control the students’ food intake, they plan to at least make them aware of their eating habits. The more students see a campaign or advertisement about their health habits, the more likely they are to change them, and WELLWVU gives them the tools to do so.

Virginia and continue its rich cultural past. “I want them to see potential in West Virginia. I want them to see opportunities that WVU and WVU Extension can shoot at to try and develop in some of the less developed areas and further develop areas that are already developed,” he said. “But, apart from them looking at the potential West Virginia has, I also want them to be able to look back and see the rich history and culture that West Virginia has had and do their best to maintain that.” But working to improve WVU and the city of Morgantown are also important aspects for Garton, too.

As a member of “The Pride of West Virginia” The Mountaineer marching band, Garton became familiar with a variety of areas on campus, including the Creative Arts Center and WVU’s athletic department. Garton said he loves Morgantown because it offers a little bit of something for everyone. “It’s something about Morgantown. I can never put my finger on it. It’s a wonderful town. It’s sort of a cultural center for West Virginia,” he said. “I think WVU is sort of the epicenter, institutionally, for West Virginia. And I just think that’s so cool.”

like (it), we’ve tried to incorporate that here.” Bailey said the idea for the addition has been in the works for about a year. Various parties have been involved with the planning, with much of it including the Monongalia County Commission.

Morgantown residents and West Virginia University students can become involved in the project, as well. “We have our Department of Highways website, with links to public documents and anybody can go on there,” Bailey said.

“They (residents) can provide comments or anything they want electronically.” Comments and suggestions to the documents are kept on a record and will be referred to throughout the course of the project. “Their comments are just as valid as anyone who is here,” Bailey said. “We go through every one of them.” Although the interchange may not directly affect students on the Downtown Campus, the addition may facilitate more development in the overall area. The road will make travel much easier for local residents and tourists. To contribute to the project, read the documents and comment at http:// go.wv.gov/dotcomment.

Amelia’s Closet offers new trends, helps avoid consignment WELLWVU BY MARIA SOLANO A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

Want to get rid of your old clothes but don’t have time for consignment? Check out Amelia’s Closet, a new store located on Mall Road next to Gabriel Brothers. Amelia’s Closet primarily focuses on buying and selling gently used, namebrand new clothing but also offers some items with tags. Although not a consignment store, Amelia’s Closet works like one. They pay cash, on the spot, for your freshly laundered clothing, then proceed to sell the merchandise for up to 75 percent less than the retail price. They accept clothing from American Eagle, Hollister, Abercrombie &

Fitch, Under Armour, The North Face, Miss Me, PINK by Victoria’s Secret and many others. They will also buy accessories and shoes. Owner Eric Steward came up with this idea after visiting Plato’s Closet, a franchise company with a similar concept. “I realized in middle school that your clothing affects how people look at you and then reflects your status as a person,” Steward said. “The kids whose parents couldn’t afford the most current styles and ‘cool’ clothes were looked down upon as unpopular.” Steward began working on Amelia’s Closet, a store that would give those people the chance to acquire name-brand clothing for a lower price. “Amelia’s Closet gives

the people who can’t afford to pay $60 for a pair of jeans the opportunity to get that same pair for $20,” Steward said. “Hand-me-downs are nothing to be ashamed of to begin with, but even more so, our items are so gently used that they look like new.” The road to success, however, did not come easily to Steward. After being a victim of the housing market crash when he lived in Florida, he worked as much as he could and went to liquidation auctions that sold display and returned merchandise from major retailers. Then, Steward would sell the merchandise on eBay to save as much money as he could. “I have had plenty of challenges to overcome to get my dream of owning a

business off the ground,” Steward said. He did everything he could to get started, from attending yard sales in wealthy communities to putting ads on Craigslist to receive items for his business. “I had every closet in my house full of clothes ready to stock my racks as soon as I was able to find a location that would be affordable, yet profitable,” Steward said. He continues to face other challenges with his business, but his most persistent challenge is what items to buy. The store has to make sure the items they buy from people are not only in good condition but will also sell in the store. “Some days we spend more money than we are bringing in, and that is very

hard on us financially,” Steward said. Amelia’s Closet is just getting started, but Steward said he hopes to build up a successful business. His main goal goes back to how and why he got started. “No one should have to be looked down upon based on what they are wearing, and if I can help that, even just a little, by having a store where these things are more readily available for them, then I am satisfied with my decision to do this,” Steward said. Amelia’s Closet is open from 10:30 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday-Saturday and noon-6 p.m. Sunday, and they will only buy clothes until 4 p.m. each day. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineer Comedy Club to feature nationally known comedians BY WESTLEY THOMPSON A&E WRITER @Dailyathenaeum

Much like your favorite television show after a mid-season winter hiatus, Mountaineer Comedy Club will make a return tonight at Hatfield’s. The new semester will kick off with two wellknown comedians: Jacob Williams and Joe Zimmerman. Both comedians are fairly new, but on the rise due to their incredible talent. Jacob Williams has been launched to the national spotlight after being a semi-finalist on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.” His comedic style is best

described as hilariously awkward. Williams makes multiple jokes about not being an IT professional despite looking like one. He also questions social conventions, like why he can’t throw up in a baby’s mouth if mother birds throw up into baby birds’ mouths. Williams is definitely quirky and fun to watch. His website, http://jacobwilliamscomedy.com, showcases more of his work. A particularly funny bit about the detriments of eating out by yourself truly exemplifies Williams’s style of comedy. He’s awkward and self-deprecating but in a way that is light and easy to watch.

Although “America’s Got Talent” was this Chicago native’s first debut on network television, he has been in comedy for some time and has other experience, as well. Williams has been on Showtime comedy specials, the Bob & Tom Show, Sirius XM radio, Rolling Stone and ABC News. The second comedian, Zimmerman, exploded onto the comedy scene in 2013. He debuted on Comedy Central’s “John Oliver’s New York Stand-Up Show” and “The Late Show with Craig Ferguson” on CBS. Zimmerman has attended numerous comedy festivals throughout the country and garnered

praise and critical acclaim. Even the polarizing and controversial Ricky Gervais has taken a keen interest in Zimmerman. Zimmerman’s comedy style is smart, fresh and unique. Much of his material is drawn from history and science. He points out the absurdities found in life in these two subjects. In one hilarious bit on his website, http://zimmermancomedy.com, Williams laments the lack of an Andrew Jackson movie in Hollywood. He describes the insanity that was Jackson’s life and is quite persuasive in his argument for the film proposal. In another set, performed on John Oliver’s

show, Zimmerman argues the difference between types of pets, detailing his hatred of snakes. Zimmerman’s comedic power is not just derived from his subject matter but also his timing. His calm voice paired with his “every man” demeanor makes for an interesting combination. West Virginia University’s Mountaineer Comedy Club is hitting the ground running this semester and starting off strong. Both Williams and Zimmerman are a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for clever humor. The show starts tonight at 9 and as always, it’s free. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Morgantown Poets to present local, distinguished speaker at MAC BY MITCHELL GLAZIER A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

George Lies, an esteemed author and editor, will be a special guest at tonight’s Morgantown Poets meeting. Lies, who lives in Morgantown, has been active in West Virginia’s literary community since 1983. Several pieces Lies has written

have been featured in major anthologies, including the Hamilton Stone Review, and translated into other languages. Much of his work is inspired by Morgantown culture. Since achieving literary success, Lies has moderated several workshops in the Morgantown area for aspiring writers, including a workshop for the Morgantown Writers

Group. Lies’ other accolades include serving two terms as president of WV Writers, Inc. and as editorial director for several anthologies. Hehas also written for newspapers in Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C. “I’m excited to hear George Lies read,” said Sydney Wickson, a sophomore English student at WVU. “I always try to go the Mor-

gantown Poets meetings. They’re perfect for lit lovers.” Along with Lies’ feature, members of the Morgantown Poets will read recent work. For those interested in attending, parking is available at the parking garage located on the corner of Pleasant and Chestnut Streets. “Anyone interested in poetry or prose should get involved with Morgantown

Poets,” said Ro Brooks, the executive director of the Monongalia Arts Center. “Many of the members are successful poets who are willing to help budding writers, and really good speakers are featured.” This evening’s reading will be held at 7 at the Monongalia Arts Center on High Street. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Sophia Bush grows up with NBC’s ‘Chicago P.D.’, talks end of ‘One Tree Hill’ NEW YORK (AP) — Sophia Bush is happy to be hanging with the grown-ups. She spent nine years on the CW series “One Tree Hill,” which followed a group of young people from their teens into their twenties. Now the 31-year-old actress plays a cop closer to her own age on NBC’s “Chicago P.D.,” airing Wednesdays (10 p.m. EST). “Finally!” she exclaimed in a recent interview when asked about what it means to make the transition. “When you’re working on a show whose subject matter is deemed to be teen, even though it evolved out of that, there’s still an energy to it that can be very frustrating as an adult human being and it was really hard for a lot of us,” she said. “As the years went on we felt that we were growing and our characters were

growing but there was still this really terrible highschool bully energy.” She said it was especially difficult for the female members of the cast. “When (characters) Brooke and (Hilarie Burton’s) Peyton were pitted against each other ... the fans on Peyton’s side started hating me, not my character. And the fans that were on my side started hating Hilarie, not her character. For us as a group of friends it was really traumatic at times to see the way that people were talking about us and to not sort of be allowed to sort of get out from under that. ... We’re like, ‘Listen, we’re grown-ups who love each other! Can we please stop fighting?’” “Chicago P.D.” is a spinoff of the NBC series “Chicago Fire.” It focuses on the Intelligence Unit of the Chicago Police Department. The

show is produced by Dick Wolf, creator and executive producer of the “Law & Order” franchise. “We cross over constantly,” says Bush of the two shows. “(The characters) go to the same bar to have beers after work and we very often respond to the same calls. It’s really a lot of fun for us.” While Wolf’s shows usually fall in the procedural category, Bush says “it’s different than any cop show I’ve ever seen.” It’s “not black and white, hero and villain,” she said. “It’s muddy and it’s gray. ... None of our heroes are perfect.” Bush plays Detective Erin Lindsay. She says the character is the closest to her of any role she’s had. “Erin has a really strong moral compass and it’s something that I underSophia Bush packs heat on the set of ‘Chicago P.D.’ stand and I relate to.”

offering free cooking classes BY NICOLE CURTIN A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

WELLWVU: The Student’s Center of Health will offer a series of five free cooking classes instructed by professional chef Mark Warman for students of West Virginia University.WELLWVU presents these classes as part of the eatWELL program. Shannon Foster, health education specialist for WELLWVU, said students who attend will learn to cook dishes with the ever important fruits and vegetables. “The objective is to allow them to experience preparing and cooking a wide variety of freg (fruits and vegetables) foods,” Foster said. The classes also aim to make students think of other options outside of what they usually eat. “We also hope to help them think outside the box when preparing healthy meals,” Foster said. “So, we introduce them to foods like quinoa, in a freggie quinoa salad, because many students have not heard of this grain which is incredibly nutrient-dense.” Through the five classes, students will work through three different recipes. The first includes a spinach, pear and pomegranate salad, the second will feature a freggie quesadilla and the last will be the quinoa salad with baked sweet potatoes. Foster said students can gain a lot from attending the co oking classes offered by WELLWVU. “One of the reasons we ask Mike to instruct the classes is because he has a wonderful rapport with students,” Foster said. “Even though he is a professional chef by trade, he is a wealth of knowledge for practical tips and tricks students can use as novice cooks.” Along with teaching some valuable cooking skills, Foster hopes the classes will help students break out of their shells when it comes to buying produce at the store. “By helping them feel more comfortable working with, preparing and cutting different types of freggies, they may feel less intimidated to pick them up at the grocery store,” Foster said. After each class, the students will be able to sit down and eat their meals. Cooking classes will be held in the Agricultural Sciences Annex Test Kitchen on Evansdale Campus from 6-8 p.m. beginning Jan. 23. There are classes currently underway, but they are already full.

It’s not just about the water

A chemical spill in the Elk River in Charleston, above, affected about 100,000 water customers, or 300,000 people total. Residents of the nine affected counties were warned not to bathe, brush their teeth or wash their clothes.

Chemical leak forces residents to ask, ‘Why?’ BENJAMIN RUSSEL COLUMNIST

Growing up in beautiful Barboursville, W.Va., I lived just 45 minutes from Charleston. It was nothing less than frightening to hear about the chemical spill in the Kanawha River that contaminated the water supply of multiple counties surrounding and including my home county. The chemical leak creates many concerns and leaves me asking one simple question: Why? Many leading news teams and reporters covered this story as it quickly gained national coverage. While many were concerned about collecting the opinions of residents about a seemingly clear cut disaster, few were actually empathizing with the people affected. Instead of finding

ways to make this catastrophe more bearable for the hundreds of thousands affected, news teams and reporters were more concerned about being the first to publish. The government of West Virginia has been environmentally stagnant for many years. In 2013, the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (WVDEP) determined the current regulatory framework monitoring emissions from gas plants was a “basis for implementation of requirements,” and no changes were made to further protect air quality. This seems to be a reccurring problem. It cannot just be a basis for safety. That’s like having a metal safety bar on a looping roller coaster. The system needs to be nearly entirely fool-proofed before enacted to give the

families of West Virginia the safety they deserve when working and living near these plants. Accidents happen, but Freedom Industries had not even been inspected since 1991. That was before I was born. Because Freedom Industries is a private company that only stores the chemicals, West Virginia does not require state inspections at this site. Many are arguing the blame should not be placed on Freedom Industries, but on the West Virginia legislature to propose and enact a law that accommodates public and private industries to be regulated at some level. As you can imagine, more regulation does not exactly grab the attention of our highly conservative demographic. As a result, nothing is being done. The state of West Virginia is so poor that regula-

tion may be one of the last places they end up putting their money. The stagnancy of policy change in West Virginia is partially due to lack of funds. West Virginia has always thrived in the coal mining and natural gas industries, but it is still far below all other states financially. West Virginia has one of the higher poverty rates in the country. The problem is mostly in these facts, but more importantly is the fact they are a continuing trend. The vast number of uneducated constituents are being used as targets for incoming legislators at all levels of the state. By advertising sugarcoated, broad statements like “Change,” “Belief,” and “Trust,” uprising representatives are making their way into their respective offices. It is time to let go of the feeble, helpless ducks who

run the politics of this state, and grab on to the scary yet exciting ideas that will eventually have their way, regardless of whether we choose to acknowledge them now or not. The lack of jobs and the poverty in West Virginia have most (conservative and liberal) residents resenting the government and asking for a change. I encourage the people of West Virginia to consider the outcome of increased regulation within our state. To protect the “Wild and Wonderful,” environmental regulations need to be made. The state prides itself on its beautiful mountains and diverse landscape, yet takes little precautions when (literally) blowing the tops off these same mountains. It is time to evaluate what is more important to the people of West Virginia: Is it your political affiliation or the 300,000 affected by this

kind of disaster? The answer does not lie within voting in the ideal Democrat or Republican, but in the people that push for adequate regulation to keep this state afloat financially. The chemical leak affected nine counties in West Virginia is much more than just an accident. Many more factors come into play then those that meet the eye. A government policy makeover is needed to ensure the people of West Virginia have access to essentials such as water. A basis to control this problem is not needed. Instead, the state needs a proactive and responsible enactment that considers all facets of the issue environmentally, and that takes into consideration the safety of the people of West Virginia and the prevention of future crises. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Smart shopping can Reduction the latest economic help minimize start of omen for Mountain State semester costs EDITORIAL

wvgazette.com

Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin delivered the annual state of the state address in Charleston last Week. West Virginia University President Gordon Gee sent out an announcement Wednesday through MIX to inform students, faculty and staff of a $1.5 million mid-year reduction in state funding for the school. Gee said the state asked for the reduction due to its current revenue problems, but assured the WVU community the institution had planned for this contingency. He said the school would “not seek further reductions from departments and colleges” and would continue with its mission to complete the goals outlined in the 2020 Strategic Plan. “We must continue to improve academic quality, retain and recruit superb faculty and staff and provide the best academic environment for our students,” Gee said in the email. “These times require us to be innovative, creative and forward-thinking. I am

confident that together we will continue to strive for an even brighter future for West Virginia University.” Despite Gee’s optimistic tone, this is yet another in a recent string of bad news about the economic condition of the Mountain State. This announcement comes within less than a week of Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin’s state of the state address. Although the state is currently struggling under the weight of a $60 million budget deficit, is currently No. 48 in job creation and was one of only two states to experience a loss in population in 2013, Tomblin, too, seemed to prefer looking on the bright side. “We continue to experience positive change across the Mountain State and have set in motion many initiatives that will not fully bloom until long after my term has ended – but the hope of a fruitful harvest keeps us working hard each and every day,” he said during the address. Obviously this is not the case. At a time when funding for the state’s flagship institution is being cut rather than increased, things are not “blooming.” We’re already more than a week into the 2014 Regular Legislative Session, and it’s past time for both the governor and the legislature to act before the state’s economic situation worsens. While Gee may be correct and the effects of this reduction may go unnoticed, let’s just hope it’s not a sign of worse things to come. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Alyssa Pluchino GUEST COLUMNIST

The days of merely reading off the syllabus and reuniting with your friends have officially ended, and your courses are just starting to get serious. Aside from evaluating how difficult your professors will be and determining how much effort you will have to put into each class, procrastinating students are also purchasing the required materials needed for their classes. The first few weeks of the semester can present a variety of unexpected expenses, and now is the time students should seriously consider making better financial decisions. Thankfully, there are several simple tips and tricks to help ease every student’s finances when preparing for the semester. First, shop wisely for school supplies. For instance, when purchasing supplies for the average 15-credit (five courses) semester opt to buy one, Five Star 5-Subject Notebook ($6.74 at Walmart) instead of purchasing five individual Five Star Notebooks ($3.31 each at Walmart, $16.55 total). Students always end up with extra paper left over from their notes, and the Five Star 5-Subject Notebook has the perfect amount of paper needed for each class. It also includes folders for each subject, saving students money on the additional pur-

chase of five extra folders. Also buy a pack of pencils rather than pens. Losing either of these writing utensils is inevitable, and with a cheap pack of standard, non-mechanical pencils you can save yourself the repeated cost of buying a pricier set of pens. Remember pencils are also a better investment because pens cannot be used for standardized tests. Every student has heard it at one time or another, renting textbooks is cheaper. However, many fail to actually do so, and it is a big mistake. Some may consider selling back their books as a reward at the end of the semester, but the truth is you only receive a fraction of what you originally paid. Also consider splitting the cost with a friend enrolled in the same course and shopping online for used textbooks. Any of these tactics when purchasing your textbooks will result in big savings. Students can also save money by utilizing some studying apps. Chegg Flashcards is an innovative app that eliminates the need for flashcards while also decreasing the cost of printing. At no cost, the app allows users to create digital flashcards, access pre-made quizzes and view their test scores. Always be sure to buy store-brand rather than namebrand products, never underestimate the power of coupons and always remember any saving is better than no saving. Even if you only save a few cents at a time, it adds up quickly. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Shatner to take audience on journey BY LACEY PALMER A&E EDITOR @LAceyPalmer

William Shatner would like to take you through a tour of “Shatner’s World,” and tonight, he will do so in Morgantown. “Shatner’s World,” a 90-minute adventure, will feature comedy, storytelling, a few songs and much more in Shatner’s irreplaceable style. “William Shatner isn’t here just to be funny,” said David Ryan, public relations specialist for West Virginia University Arts & Entertainment. “He’s had a huge career and is known

all around the world. We’re going to be taking a journey with him through that life and experience ‘Shatner’s World.’” With a history in film, television, music and writing, it’s hard to deny Shatner’s talent to entertain. He can captivate an audience simply by being himself. “There are only a few people in Hollywood whose entire personality can be summarized in one name, and Shatner is one of them,” Ryan said. “He’s been a fixture on screens since his career began, and he’s grown to be one of the most enduring figures

of our culture. He’s had a rich, varied career, and we’re excited to see where he takes us on his journey.” Though most wellknown for his role of Captain James T. Kirk in the television series “Star Trek,” Shatner’s abilities do not stop there. He directed films, hosted his own television shows, written bestsellers, won Emmys and a Golden Globe, recently released his third studio album and breeds horses on the side. “He’s a powerhouse figure – one you’ve come to know over your life from a multitude of things,” Ryan said. “Whether you’ve seen

Dr. Martens dominate WVU

him on a Comedy Central roast or vintage ‘Star Trek’ episodes, his life (story) is bound to be an incredibly fun ride.” The show is set to begin tonight at 7:30 in the Lyell B. Clay Concert Theatre in the Creative Arts Center. Tickets range from $46$153, depending on seat location, and WVU students may purchase tickets for $33 with a valid ID. Tickets are available at the Mountainlair and Creative Arts Center box offices, online at http://ticketmaster.com or by calling 304-293-SHOW. lacey.palmer@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineer Fashion Mania

BY MITCHELL GLAZIER A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

The British footwear brand, Dr. Martens, also known as “Doc” Martens, have debuted in full force this winter at West Virginia University. From classic black leather to psychedelic ’70s floral prints, Dr. Martens offer myriad styles for nearly every fashion maven’s winter wardrobe. Klaus Maertens created the brand when he served in World War II. After sustaining a leg injury in the Alps, Martens found his standard-issue army boots did not provide much support. While recuperating, Martens designed a pair of boots with comfort in mind, without forsaking the classic design of war boots. With the mass looting of German cities, Martens decided to take leather from a cobbler’s shop to fashion the first pair of Dr. Martens. After collaborating with a fellow doctor on the design, Dr. Martens began fashioning thousands of boots for post-war German citizens. Many women found the soles of the shoes more comfortable than popular flats of the time, and women who were 40 years old and older contributed to 80 percent of sales in the first 10 years of the company. With the help of shoemaker Bill Gr iggs, Maertens opened the brand to the U.K. market, effectively increasing de-

shamelesslysassy.com

mand in the rest of Europe. Briggs slightly redesigned the shoe for a more snug fit and added the signature yellow stitching, which is a trademark of Dr. Martens shoes to this day. Through the 1960s, Dr. Martens became associated with both respected professions, such as mail carriers and police officers, and underground subcultures and New Wave musicians. Throughout the ’90s, the Dr. Martens Corporation remained popular, as the boots were promoted heavily in grunge fashion. After surviving a slight dip in sales in the early 2000s, the Dr. Martens Corporation became the eighth fastest-growing British company. Today, these boots are a staple in any wardrobe. For chic campus women, Dr. Martens can make a statement when paired with a circle skirt or

skinny jeans. For fashionforward men, Dr. Martens can provide a striking contrast with jogger pants or acid-washed Levi’s jeans. For an extra pop to your outfit, slip on a pair of statement socks. Pull the socks all the way up the leg, so they peek over the lip of your Dr. Martens. This mixing of warmth and fashion will make sense to most Morgantown fashion mavens. “To survive the winter Morgantown chill in warmth and style, boots are essential,” said Anthony Lopez, a junior fashion marketing student. “You’d roll from the top of frat row to Florida otherwise. Morgantown gets pretty icy.” Dr. Martens can be purchased at Journeys or online from retailers such as http://zappos.com. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

STILL LEARNING

Bright future ahead for WVU

CORY DOBSON/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

Guard Terry Henderson drives to the basket against Marshall Dec. 14.

Sophomore Henderson, young West Virginia team learning from recent struggles by doug walp sports writer @dougwalp

After a hot start to open Big 12 play, the West Virginia men’s basketball team has dropped two consecutive crucial home c o n f e re n c e c o nt e s t s, plummeting the Mountaineers to second worst in the entire league in collective winning percentage. The two-game skid matches WVU’s longest losing streak of the year and is the second time in six games the Mountaineers have dropped backto-back contests. It’s also only the second time West Virginia has dropped consecutive conference games at home since joining the Big 12, and with a full slate of formidable league opponents still on tap, the Mountaineers are indeed facing a

potentially dire situation. But even amid this tumultuous stretch, there have been some bright spots for West Virginia basketball, and one of them has been sophomore guard Terry Henderson. After leading WVU in 3-point efficiency as a true freshman in 2013, Henderson actually began this season in a very unfamiliar spot – on the bench. A shin injury – although not shin-splints, according to WVU head coach Bob Huggins – initially kept Henderson in street clothes during the Mountaineers’ season opener and then limited him noticeably during WVU’s next two appearances. However, following that modest start, Henderson has not only worked his way back into the starting lineup, he’s also resumed his roles as one of the

Mountaineers’ primary offensive options and one of the Big 12’s premier perimeter players. “Terry’s been getting better and better,” Huggins said. “He was hurt early, and he got kind of behind. And honestly, he still hasn’t shot the ball very well, but he really gets in there and works at it. “And he listens. He listens to try to do what you ask him to do. He’s a guy who’s always made shots, and he’s got good bounce. So he ought to be able to rebound it and block some shots, because he does have really good bounce.” Henderson has reached double-figures in nine of his last 10 games, including his last five times on the floor. His 16-point effort against Texas Monday marked his third consec-

utive game with 16 points or more, and Henderson is averaging 14.8 points and 4 rebounds per game since returning to the starting lineup eight games ago. Henderson also notched a season-high 21 points against No. 11 Oklahoma State Saturday to go along with six rebounds, four assists, two steals and a block. “From the jump I kind of took it personal,” Henderson said. “I knew that they (Oklahoma State) were a great team, and I knew we’d have a great supporting cast behind us with our fans. “I feel like we were ready to play. It was time to leave it all out on there on the court. You’ve got Marcus Smart, who’s probably going to be a top-5 draft pick. Why not go at him, you know? That’s just how I felt.”

But Henderson also said that for the Mountaineers to be successful the rest of this season he and his teammates need to focus on more than just their scoring and perimeter shooting. “We’ve got to do some soul-searching individually. Huggs has hold us that we need to come in here and work on our weaknesses, which are defense and rebounding,” Henderson said. “It really just comes down to a heart thing. There’s nothing you can really work on, just when it comes down to crunch time you’ve got to execute. “It’s just mental mistakes down the stretch. We’re still a young team and we need to go through some adversity to bounce back off that.” dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineers living and dying by 3-pointer by amit batra sports editor @batra01

The notion of West Virginia living and dying with the jump shot has never been more evident than after its 80-69 loss to the Texas Longhorns Monday night. On the evening, the Mountaineers were only able to convert 4 of 25 3-point attempts, good for 16 percent. WVU head coach Bob Huggins said he felt his team took good shots and were given good chances, but those attempts simply didn’t fall in that particular game against the

Longhorns. “Did you ever go 4-for25? It drains your energy,” Huggins said. “We didn’t make shots. If you make shots, you play harder, and if you don’t, you put your head down. We just didn’t make them.” Huggins said he didn’t question his team’s work ethic in the game, but his team’s inability to have a legitimate scoring weapon really made the team suffer as a whole. “We took makeable shots,” he said. “For some reason we have started pump-faking when we’re open and dribbling into people when we’re not. I don’t understand the

value in that.” Huggins said he was unsure if his team relies on the 3-point shot. It’s difficult to say if the Mountaineers can truly have an efficient offense without relying on averageto-good perimeter shooting, but in Monday’s affair, Huggins’ team needed buckets in the second half to cut into a double-digit Texas lead. “I don’t know if we do (rely on the 3-point shot),” Huggins said. “When you’re 4-for-25, obviously, I’m not sure if shooting inside the 3 would have made us any better. When it’s short any time, it’s going be short probably all

the time.” There was question on whether the Mountaineers’ shooting woes were due to the quick turnaround from the heartbreaking defeat to No. 11 Oklahoma State two days prior, but Huggins said there really wasn’t much of a disadvantage, because Texas also had a game Saturday night. “We were here yesterday,” Huggins said. “We watched a lot of film, we walked through some stuff, and we practiced a little. “They weren’t on their feet more than an hour. They were bouncy. I don’t think that they were tired. “What I get a kick out

of is that they all want to play in the NBA. As we know, they play 82 games in the NBA and maybe 100 if you’re in the playoffs. When our season is over they haven’t even reached the All-Star break. I know the game is longer and faster, too. So, if they can’t do this, they won’t be able to play in the NBA.” Whether it was just a matter of being tired of having an off shooting day, one thing to keep any eye on will be how the jump shot will affect results in the upcoming games for the Mountaineers. amit.batra@mail.wvu.edu

Expectations and collective aspirations alike were undoubtedly swelling in Morgantown on the heels of the WVU men’s basketball team’s 2-0 start in the Big 12 this season. But that communal hope has since been supplanted by a palpable cloud of despair, as the Mountaineers were unable to take advantage of a prime opportunity to grab sole possession of first place in the Big 12 during the weekend and Monday night. And now, as West Virginia fans slowly begin to realize without a lengthy league winning streak or a conference tournament crown – both seemingly far-fetched at this point – a second straight missed NCAA tournament is looking more and more inevitable. Frankly, it’s entirely possible WVU will miss postseason basketball altogether for a second consecutive season, as even NIT bids have become much more difficult to secure in this day and age. But fear not, West Virginia faithful, because it appears a series of very good basketball teams are literally just around the corner in Morgantown. Yes, this year’s team has displayed a noticeable amount of improvement compared to 2013’s squad from both a production and a team synergy perspective. However, if Monday’s game against Texas showed us anything, it’s the Mountaineers still lack all the necessary pieces to truly be considered a physically formidable team, and thus a complete college basketball team. There’s no question right now WVU’s strengths lie on the perimeter and within its backcourt. Juwan Staten, Eron Harris and Terry Henderson are three of the Big 12’s best guards, and all still have room to improve. Forwards Elijah Macon and Johnathan Holton represent the two critical pieces the Mountaineers are lacking this season: size and physicality in the front court. I believe once those two are finally able to shed the shackles of NCAA ineligibility next season, the Mountaineers can once again become a team with the potential to reach the Final Four. So, the next time the Mountaineers encounter a rough or frustrating stretch, just remember West Virginia basketball is not only fully on the upswing, it’s really only a year away from putting one of the best collective teams on the floor since Bob Huggins returned to his alma mater seven seasons ago.

We could have got back in the game if we could have made a shot. We took makeable shots. For some reason we have started pump faking when we’re open and dribbling into people when we’re not. I don’t understand the value in that.”

WVU defeats No. 13 Iowa State on road by jon fehrens sports writer @dailyathenaeum

A strong defensive performance from the West Virginia women’s basketball team aided the Mountaineers’ 73-59 upset victory win inside the Hilton Coliseum Wednesday night in Ames, Iowa, against No. 13 Iowa State. The Cyclones, a team built around shooting from behind the arc, were held to only two 3-pointers all night. The Mountaineers managed to hold ISU to shooting 10 percent from behind the arc. “This was a great win for us against a very good Iowa State basketball team,” said head coach Mike Carey. “We were in foul trouble

most of the game, but our girls came off the bench and did a great job. The first half I thought we did an excellent job defensively. Every time they cut it, we’d go back up nine or 10, so that was good to see.” WVU (15-2, 4-1) came out strong in the first half by knocking down seven 3-pointers in the first 20 minutes of play, while the Cyclones went 0-12 from long range. The Mountaineers opened up a 15-point lead against Iowa State, marking the largest deficit for ISU this season. By the time the first half buzzer sounded, WVU headed to the locker room with a 3623 lead. ISU (14-2, 3-2) continued to struggle in the second half, as West Vir-

ginia continued to build on its lead. Despite leading by 16 points at one time, Iowa State managed to pull within six multiple times. Every Mountaineer who entered in the game ended up scoring a point. Linda Stepney scored a career-high 16 points in the matchup, leading all WVU players. She also dished out six assists and grabbed seven boards. Sophomore guard Bria Holmes continued her stretch of stellar play by contributing 12 points. “I thought we took them off the spot on the 3s. We shot better from the perimeter than we have for the last three or four games. When (Asya) Bussie got the ball, they had two or three people on her, so it

was people really stepping into their shot and getting good looks,” Carey said. “I thought we had a good game plan coming in, and I thought our players followed it.” Iowa State’s Hallie Christofferson led all players with 21 points and five rebounds. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

West Virginia’s Asya Bussie tries to drive past a Texas defender in the Mountaineers’ overtime victory Sunday.

ISU DL coach dies at 43 AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State defensive line coach Curtis Bray died Wednesday, the team said. He was 43. “Curtis Bray was a dear friend to me and to all he ever came in contact with,” Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said. “He was a trusted and loyal assistant coach who always put the kids and the team in front of his work. He was as genuine in his approach to relationships, coaching and life as anyone I have ever been associated with. We will miss him dearly.” Bray grew up in Monroeville, Pa. and became the first defensive player to be honored as the Gatorade national player of the year for Gateway High in 1987. Bray graduated from Pitt in 1992 after a stellar career as a linebacker for the Panthers. He also coached at Duquesne, Western Kentucky and Villanova and later worked with Rhoads at Pittsburgh, where Bray spent seven seasons. Bray was the linebackers coach when Rhoads was Pitt’s defensive coordinator. Bray followed Rhoads to Ames when he was named Iowa State’s head coach in 2009 after working on the staff at Temple.
