THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Hello readers, If silence is golden, I’d probably win the bronze. If that. My past few months have been inundated with a lot of noise, most of it self-inflicted. During this time, I’ve pumped an excess of podcasts, YouTube videos and Spotify songs into my brain, and I think I’ve finally reached boiling point. Now, it’s time for a moment of silence. I’ve come to realize there’s a place for these things, but that place shouldn’t be in every waking and sleeping moment of our lives. I was listening to music while I got ready for the day, while I walked to class, while I did my homework and while I fell asleep. It was rare that I gave myself a moment to just enjoy the quiet, and I was losing out because of it. The very things I loved were turning out to be more of a chokehold than a warm embrace. I knew I was missing something by stealing that downtime from myself. Due to the nature of quiet time, it’s not always immediately obvious how critical it is. It’s a subtle gift in our lives, and being the plugged-in people who we are, we don’t always hear its inviting whisper. What are we more likely to listen to? The voice that tells us to chill out in a quiet space or the voice that tells us to turn our music up to 11? Silence is
one of those things we only appreciate once we’re experiencing it or after we notice its positive side-effects. When we listen to ourselves instead of the cacophony around us, we tend to discover something we would’ve normally missed. We can use quiet time for meditating, praying, brainstorming or working through the complex problems life throws at us. It’s a time for our brains to explode with creativity or to mend with rest. The white noise of the latest “Stuff You Should Know” episode doesn’t help with these things. At least, not when used to excess. We can fill our lives with plenty of great distractions that may serve as inspiration, but nothing should completely replace that sweet sound of silence. Thanks for reading, Alexa Horn Senior Opinion Editor

Senator Ben Sasse gives UNL student an Uber ride Jessica Larkins dn staff writer
It’s that awkward time of year again when warm afternoons are bookended by freezing mornings and evenings. So Adrian Silva, a sophomore architecture major at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, didn’t bring his coat to work last Saturday. Rather than battle the cold, Silva decided to take an Uber home. He requested a driver as usual, but this time his driver had a recognizable face. At first he didn’t believe it. But as the silver GMC Acadia pulled up, out stepped the person who would turn a six-minute car ride into 15 minutes of fame. On Nov. 12, Silva’s Uber driver was Ben Sasse, a Republican United States senator from Nebraska who is most known for his early denouncement of Donald Trump. Silva’s short ride has received a lot of attention after he tweeted about it. Everyone from CNN to Buzzfeed to KETV in Omaha has covered the story. “This is the weirdest thing,” Silva said. “I accidentally became famous.” Silva, who was a Hillary Clinton supporter, said he pays attention to politic. So when the Uber app showed his driver was arriving, he recognized Sasse’s face right away. He was skeptical at first because the app simply listed Benjamin as the driver’s name. “When I saw he had a five-star rating, I knew that it was real,” he said. Despite having different political views, Silva said Sasse was a “really cool guy.” Silva said most of their conversation was Sasse asking questions about Silva, such as where he is from and what he is doing in school. Sasse even got out of the car to greet him and shake his hand. Silva said that made an impression on him, especially in such a divisive political climate “Since it’s like the other side you don’t think of them as people,” Silva said. “You think of them as ‘Republican.’” There wasn’t a lot of time for Silva to get all of his questions answered, but he made sure to ask one thing. He wanted to know if Sasse’s views on Trump changed now that he is the presi-

Looking back now, Silva wishes he would have asked more personal questions while he had a U.S. Senator’s undivided attention. Silva said he wanted to
“When I saw he had a five-star rating, I knew that it was real.”
ask Sasse if he will run for president in 2020, but Silva doubts he would have been able to answer that question anyway. Moonlighting as an Uber driver seems like a risky job to Silva. He said because there are many people who don’t agree with Sasse’s position on Trump, he could see how something could go wrong on a ride. Sasse drives for Uber because he likes to “work alongside and for Nebraskans,” according to his Twitter account. In the same tweet, Sasse also pointed out that any money
he makes from Uber is for charity, since he isn’t allowed to make outside money. The senator also had some tips for anyone considering becoming an Uber driver. “Pro-Tip,” Sasse tweeted. “If you throw up in an Uber, the surcharge can be substantial. Upside: It’s a market incentive to get drivers to agree to Sat.pm work.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Beadle parking lot closes Elsie Stormberg DN STAFF WRITER
On Wednesday, Nov. 9, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln closed more than half of the Beadle Center’s parking lot, leaving only two rows of spaces dedicated to faculty and staff. The parking lot, located south of the Beadle Center, was used by students with Area C parking passes. Despite a notification sent out about the closing by Parking and Transit Services on Nov. 7, some students felt out of the loop. “It takes some students by surprise, even though when the building project went to the Board of Regents a year ago to be approved, that was the site that was selected,” said the director of Parking and Transit Services Dan Carpenter. “This is not new by all means.” Senior nutrition and dietetics major Hana Jaber said she was frustrated to learn the lot was closed. “As commuters we pay a lot,” she said. “We expect to have a lot of options. That’s why I specifically chose that [Area C parking pass], because I know I have a lot of options with that parking pass.” According to Christine Jackson, Vice Chancellor of Business and Finance, the lot closed to make room for the new student health center. “The decision was made that we would co-locate the new student health center and the college of nursing into a single building because there was an opportunity for some
synergies between the two programs,” Jackson said. “We have students who are moving through their nursing program who can help and assist, have some opportunities for oncall internships and things like that.” Jackson said there was a prolonged process of deciding a building site for this $24 million project, mainly looking at parking lots. “As you can imagine, given the growth of our campus, any place where there is a parking lot or vacant space of land are always eyed as a place to build a building,” Jackson said. With the Beadle Center’s location, there are many new possibilities for the health center. Not only will it be bigger, the health center will be more accessible for City Campus students, East Campus students and off-campus students, Jackson said. Construction project manager Joe Goodwater said construction should be completed within the next few years. “General construction should be complete in May or June of 2018. Commissioning, final completion and move in will be in the summer of 2018,” he said. In the end, the old student health center will be erased, Jackson said. “There are not currently any big plans, but it might end up just being a parking lot,” Jackson said. “At this point in time, it will be part of the Campus Master Plan to see what will go in there next.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Student runs in Lincoln marathon community staff
Sofia Ciotti, a sophomore advertising and public relations major, ran her first half-marathon during her senior year of high school. The Lincoln Marathon falls on the first Sunday of May, which happens to be near her birthday. So, she thought, why not run the halfmarathon option of the race to celebrate? Six thousand showed up for the Good Life Halfsy on Nov. 6 and about 13,000 came to the Lincoln Marathon last May including UNL students like Ciotti. Before running the half-marathon portion of the Lincoln Marathon, Ciotti said she heard you only have to run six miles and then adren-
aline takes you the rest of the way. To prepare for her first half-marathon she ran four miles a couple times a week and then a six mile run the week before the half-marathon. Mile 11 is when the pain kicked in. “The last two miles are the worst miles of your life,” Ciotii said. The closing miles of the race were on 10th street, which is a straight shot to the finish lane in Memorial Stadium. Ciotti recently ran the Good Life Halfsy. She said she was running at a good pace for the first nine miles, but when mile 11 came she hit her wall. While running, her dad was riding his bike alongside her, which helped her power through the last miles of the race.
Throughout the Lincoln Marathon people gathered on the sides cheering everyone the whole way. Ciotti said this helped her get through the last two grueling miles. At the Good Life Halfsy there were cheering stations sporadically placed along the 13.1 mile route. Ciotti said people consistently cheering helped keep her adrenaline up. Ciotti said she wants to run the 2017 Lincoln Half-Marathon in two hours or less. She said if she breaks two hours she will think about running the full marathon. In order to break two hours, Ciotti will start training in January. Ciotti said it will be hard to train in the winter because running long distances on the treadmill can be challenging.
When training for a long distance, Ciotti said to run a couple shorter runs during the week and a long run on the weekend. Ciotti actively works out at FLY. She participates in cycling classes and HIIT classes, which help her endurance. Going into races Ciotti has not thought much about her time, rather she focuses on finishing the whole race. “You think the half-marathon might be hard, but it is not that hard till you get to mile 10 or 11,” Ciotti said. “If you can run 11 miles, you can run 13 miles,” The sign up for the 2017 Lincoln Half-Marathon opens at 3 a.m. Jan. 7.

A Ferocious Jungle Cat values friendship, creativity Sam Crisler dn staff writer
Before anything else, the members of A Ferocious Jungle Cat are friends. The Lincoln band has existed in different forms for more than a half decade; always anchored by the consistent involvement of two brothers. Will and Cal Harman started playing house shows in 2011 with the first incarnations of AFJC. Since 2013, however, the lineup has solidified as a six-piece with the additions of Ian Fleming on trombone, Mike Masin on keys, Ariel Sinha on vocals and percussion and Myles Jasnowski on guitar. With this lineup, the band has created a chemistry that flows among the musicians and contributes heavily to the funk-driven dance music they play. AFJC has released an EP and LP, both of which were self-titled. On these records, the band showcases its diverse musical style. Through influences ranging from the modern funk of artists like Vulfpeck, the soulful vocals of Erykah Badu and the grooves of golden era hip-hop acts like A Tribe Called Quest, the band has crafted a sound that combines these influences to produce songs that are meant to be danced to. When they develop these songs, Will said the writing process usually starts with him, but the hierarchy of the band is anything but a monarchy. The size of the band allows for constructive feedback between members, which only strengthens the songs AFJC writes. “It’s not just working with one or two people,” Will said. “It’s nice to have a larger number of people who you can bounce ideas off of and who can say, ‘Honestly, that idea sucks.’” And while Will typically assembles the bones of songs, he said collaboration from all six members is necessary for the organic building of the songs. “We’re constantly sending messages back and forth like, ‘Hey, what if we did this here?’” Will said. “It’s definitely collaborative, and everybody has an influence.” AFJC often tests the strength of their new songs at their live shows, where they can

For the band, this is an important step in the songwriting process, but Cal said their main focus at live performances is to create an energetic atmosphere that audiences can enjoy. And he said the best way to do
“A lot of bands are bands on music terms, but we’re a band because we’re friends, and that’s important.”
that is by writing dance-oriented songs. But Will said AFJC has played for crowds that were reluctant to dance, which almost defeats the purpose of playing fun music. He said he prefers audiences who are ready to dance as soon as they walk in the venue door. “I’ve always felt like if we’re gonna put in the time and the effort to be up on stage and to play and have people appreciate it, I want them to feel the same way that I do,” Will said. “And that’s to want to dance.” Because of their diverse yet accessible musical style, AFJC gets included on bills tailored for hip-hop audiences, as well as bills
focusing more on indie and heavy rock. Just recently, AFJC brought their funk tunes to a predominantly hip-hop lineup at Vega. In their time performing frequently around Nebraska, AFJC has carved out its niche. At the release show for their self-titled LP in November of 2015, the band played to a Zoo Bar crowd that was packed wall-towall. For Will, the Zoo Bar show proved to him that AFJC is important. “That was a lot of fun because it felt like almost a validation of everything that we’ve

Allison Holt wrote screenplay for own short film
zach henke | dn Ellis Clopton dn staff writer
Some University of Nebraska-Lincoln students spend their downtime browsing Facebook, binging a Netflix series or taking a much-valued nap. Allison Holt had a different idea — instead she wrote the screenplay for a short film called “Up River.” What began as a rough draft written in the space of 20 minutes became something more, and after 12 more drafts the story became a finished script. Finally, after using her skills as a writer and 15 years of piano lessons, Holt had become the screenwriter, director and music composer for her own film. “Up River” is a six-minute short set in the northern region of the United States in the 1820s and stars Desiree Bartels, a senior theatre performance, production and management major, as Margaret, a girl struggling to survive in the harsh, beautiful frontier. Originally a fisheries and wildlife major
before switching to film production, the outdoorsy feel of the film felt right at home for Holt and allowed cinematographer Ben Hartzell to experiment with his own style. “Up River” was filmed entirely outside at a UNL-owned prairie just 35 minutes away from campus. Shooting took five days and two weekends of on-set filming, including one night of camping. Days began at 6:00 am and lasted approximately 8 to 10 hours. “We immersed ourselves in the set,” Holt said. “I wanted a good project and I hate driving, so I didn’t want to drive home.” According to Holt, excitement about the project kept the cast and crew enthusiastic and productive. Another reason for the group’s excitement is that the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film has never premiered a timepiece before “Up River.” Because of this, extensive research was put into the project, including the clothing worn and firearms used. Film producer Elijah Watson, a junior film
and new media major, said shooting exclusively outdoors had its fair share of challenges. Watson was in charge of the logistics of the set, including the transportation of equipment, outdoor housing for the cast and crew and the restroom situations. Watson also had to take into account how the equipment such as lights would be plugged in and how the position of the sun would affect a shot. “There is a lot of convenience to shooting indoors that you don’t really think about until you don’t have it,” Watson said in an email interview. “These are things that have to be worried about in order for us to have a successful shoot.”
Though the film school provided most of the equipment for shooting, Holt and the rest of her crew were in charge of coming up with funding for the project. Though some was paid out of pocket, a crowdfunding webpage was set up so that close friends and family members could support the production, but a single anonymous donor contributed $500. It turned out that the donor had been the victim of credit card fraud and so the money was refunded. “We thought that was kind of weird.” Holt said. According to Watson, the budget of the film was $2,000 but is expected to come in under budget. Desiree Bartels plays the lead role of the film. She auditioned for the role of Margaret and it is her first major acting role in a film project. Bartels only worked with a scene partner for two of the 12 scenes in “Up River” and spent the majority of the film acting by herself. Bartels said it allowed her to connect herself to the character and to focus on what she specifically wanted out of the character for a specific scene. “Allison, both as a writer and a director, in my personal opinion, was really great because she laid a really nice framework out,” Bartels said. “But she let me make the choices to fill in the skeleton.” This freedom to express the character allowed her to develop Margaret exactly the way she wanted to. For example, Bartels added a faith aspect to the character that was not originally written into the script. “We just had some props, there was a cross and a little travel bible,” Bartels said. Bartels decided that the name Margaret had an Irish-Catholic ring to it and incorporated it into her character. “She really let me run with it, which was really nice.” Bartels said. The film is set to finish post-production soon and will be submitted to several film festivals. The film will be screened at the Mary Riempa Ross Media Arts Center in the spring as part of an event sponsored by the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film, where student projects can be viewed by the public. “I’m proud of what we’ve done, I think it’s been worth it.” Holt said.
“We immersed ourselves in the set. I wanted a good project.”

been doing,” he said. “They actually like us, which is nice to see.” And while AFJC’s following has grown steadily, Will said the band wouldn’t be where it is right now without the help of some key people along the way, most notably Josh Hoyer. Will said Hoyer, the leader of prominent soul band Josh Hoyer & Soul Colossal, was instrumental when the band was first starting out by booking AFJC gigs for audiences who hadn’t yet heard of them. Hoyer said no matter what they play, AFJC brings joy to audiences. They don’t need to do much persuasion to draw in listeners. Their music sells itself. He said as a talent buyer for local events, most of the shows he books benefit from including an AFJC set. “They always bring the dance party,” Hoyer said in an email. “They have a great local following, they’re super chill to work with, and they play their hearts out.” Despite the band’s success to this point, Cal said still there is plenty of room for improvement. The additions of Ariel Sinha and Myles Jasnowski to the band within the last three years have pushed the band to grow as musicians. And the addition of Sinha, who also performs as a singer-songwriter act, has encouraged the rest of the band to sharpen their lyric-writing skills. “Her number one thing about music is that it has to have good lyrics for it to be good music,” Cal said. “And I think she has brought some her writing and helped us improve in that sense.” Cal said the addition of Jasnowski has

inspired the rest of AFJC to become better musicians, too. “He’s just so talented, and he makes everyone else want to be more talented,” Cal said. As AFJC works on their musicianship, its members have also begun planning for the band’s future. AFJC is currently working on a four-song EP, and Will said they’re hoping to record their second full-length for release in 2017. And, although it’s something its members have wanted to do for a while, because of jobs and obligations, AFJC has yet to go on its first tour. The band has played one-off shows in North Platte and Iowa City, but Will said it would be ideal to tour for at least a week. Touring would offer the band an opportunity to extend their reach, but Will said it would also give them a chance to just hang out and enjoy each other’s company. “We don’t get that much time to hang out because everybody’s so busy,” Will said. “But if we’re in a van driving for three or four hours, we actually get time to hang out and be friends.” The friendship throughout AFJC is pervasive. It’s a special camaraderie that translates to the stage. Whether they are performing at shows for 250 people or 15, they still cherish every chance they get to play music together. “A lot of bands are bands on music terms,” Cal said. “But we’re a band because we’re friends, and that’s important.” ARTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Dwell Dinners educate guests on food, culture
margaret davenport | dn Brooke Lehman, a junior advertising and public relations major at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, poses for a portrait in Lincoln on Nov. 11, 2016. Lehman is the creator of Dwell Dinners, a dinner club that brings strangers together once a month for a long-table meal. Margaret Davenport dn staff writer
Take one cup of being a part-time student, add two tablespoons of different parttime jobs, then finish with a dollop of event planning every month. This is the recipe that Brooke Lehman cooked for herself when she began Dwell Dinners. Dwell Dinners are long-table dinner gatherings that take place within a dwelling. The once-a-month dinner that takes place at Lehman’s home is a compilation of recipes, ideas, quotes, photos and other forms of inspiration Lehman has selected. It is a community event where people can share their passions with those they have never met. “When we surround ourselves with people that are different from ourselves, we learn so much more,” Lehman, a junior advertising and public relations major, said. “It brings people together and invites them to a place where absolutely everyone is welcome.” The Lincoln native said the inspiration for the Dwell Dinners stemmed from her travels. In coffee shops and stores in big cities, Lehman began reading minimalist publications such as Kinfolk Magazine and fell in love. She then made a point to get a different publication in every large city she visited.
“(The desire) caused family tension when we went to Paris after I graduated high school,” Lehman said. “I wanted to go to this little bookstore in the middle of nowhere (in order to get a publication) while they all wanted to go to the Louvre.” The idea of the dinner also stemmed from Lehman’s love of cooking. Some of the featured dinners have included vanilla bean ice cream, quinoa crust pizzas and chopped kale salads. “People always told me that they wanted to try my foods and cook with me, but then plans were never made,” Lehman said. “This dinner changed that, and now I get to cook unique gourmet healthy foods for my friends.” According to Lehman, she tries to keep the meals seasonal to the month that the dinner takes place in. The second Dwell Dinner, which took place at the end of October, featured a menu of baked sweet potatoes, local apple cider and a “harvest creation” made of autumn fruits and spices. She also tries to source many of the ingredients locally, which becomes difficult since Lehman pays for everything out of pocket. Lehman says that even though she loves treating her guests to the dinner, she may ask guests contribute money if they can. Dwell Dinners were also a way for Lehman
to create a space where friends from high school, college and work could all come together and get to know one another. “A lot of the time in college we get comfortable with our group of friends and we don’t branch out and meet new people,” Michaela Reddel, friend of Lehman and attendee of the first Dwell Dinner, said. “(Dwell Dinners) is such an inclusive and loving environment where I got to… commune with entirely new people and hear their stories.” Ten guests are allowed to every Dwell Dinner and can sign up on Lehman’s website. When guests sign up, they are asked to list their favorite foods, favorite music and whether they identify as a dreamer, doer or thinker. Lehman takes all the information entered by guests and creates the night based off the answers. She creates a playlist of the guests’ favorite music and makes sure the meal is wary of any diet restrictions. She also gives each guest a pale pink sticker with the word “Dwell Dinner” printed on it, a menu and a card with the topic/word of the evening on it. Every Dwell Dinner is paired with a particular topic/word as a conversation starter. The past words have been Gather and Make. This month’s word is “Pilgrim.” “While reading these publications, I noticed themes that were brought up for the dinners or gatherings,” Lehman said. “I don’t force people to talk about what the word means to the guests or anything. It’s just a way
margaret davenport | dn
to get people thinking.” Lehman said she would like to keep most of the Dwell Dinners at 10 guests. This way she can easily prepare enough food for everyone and they can talk comfortably with one another. But the dinners aren’t all fun and games. According to Lehman, they’re a lot more work than she anticipated. Lehman said she prepared everything for the last Dwell Dinner only two days before. Regardless, they have all turned out—in her and her guests’ words—magical. “We sat at a low table on the ground (outside) with blankets and pillows,” Reddel said. “(Brooke) had lights hanging above the table and the table was decorated with simple plants. I really think everyone needs to experience a Dwell Dinner.” Lehman said she hopes Dwell Dinners will become a way to meet more people from the community and connect people together. If the dinner idea grows, she hopes to help people host their own dinners. “I think we all see pictures on Tumblr or in magazines of these beautiful hangouts and we think to ourselves, ‘Oh that’s so cool, but I feel as though it’s too cool for me,’” Lehman said. “But this is for anyone—it’s a community.” ARTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

County-City gallery hosts mythologic exhibit
julian tirtadjaja | dn Jacob Elliott DN STAFF WRITER
For centuries, folklore has inspired the hearts of artists and scholars; now at the
County-City Gallery, the two have met. The “Funk & Wagnall’s Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology, & Legend” exhibit is currently well underway at the City of Lincoln & Lancaster County Building. The exhibit is scheduled to go on until Nov. 30, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The gallery features the art of Timm Hoff and Jean Welborn, a pair of Nebraska artists. The artists drew inspiration for the exhibit from the book. Both artists conveyed the different aspects of fairytales and folklore. Welborn’s art has a dreamlike quality with strange and exaggerated figures, while Hoff’s detail and sharpness were similar to the art style of “The Hobbit,” which is illustrated by Eric Fraser. Welborn focuses more on acrylic paintings of characters and has a style of elongated characters with large arms and legs. Many
of Welborn’s paintings involve bright colors; there is also a blue tone in a large number of her paintings. “I took a figure-drawing [class] back in college and I loved it,” Welborn said. ”But what I loved even more was the whimsical aspect of being able to take proportions that you know were true, and take them into graceful long line[s] of the neck or the ribcage protruding. “ Hoff went through a variety of mediums, including sculpture, linocuts and drawings. The small details enhanced the characters, allowing them to pop from the page. The sculptures made by Hoff look like the items an adventurer would find on their journey. An odd, misshapen mask, the burnt remains of a lyre - all of these items in their simplicity conveyed a storybook feeling to the exhibition. “It’s been an interesting journey for us, and though we have very distinct style[s], they really work together,” Hoff said.
There is a small, interactive nature to the exhibit as well. The name of each piece is a name and page number of an article within the “Funk & Wagnall’s Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology, & Legend.” One of Welborn’s graphic sketches is labeled “Pg. 271. Cyclops.” Guests are welcome to open the book and read up on the history and nature of the piece’s subject. Those with smartphones are encouraged to download the app Aurasma for a virtual reality digital tour of the exhibit. Using the smart phone’s camera, museum-goers were able to receive small letters which give a brief description of the painting’s inspiration or subject. ARTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

BALLER: Avoid political talk at Thanksgiving Brook Baller staff columnist
It. Please, don’t talk about it. Don’t talk about it sitting down. Don’t talk about it standing up. Just don’t do it. Promise? You may be very tempted to discuss the outcome of the election with your family if you haven’t done so already. However, I am here to be the voice of reason in order to steer you, as well as your closest friends and relatives, away from conversing about anything political this Turkey Day. It is quite apparent that many individuals are in uproar and are utterly disgusted with how the 2016 Presidential Election turned out. This should not come as a surprise to all of us, considering the fact that, no matter who won, somebody was going to be taken aback and upset about the result. But as President Obama stated in a recent press
conference in Athens, Greece, “We are going to have to guard against a rise in a crude sort of nationalism or ethnic identity or tribalism that is built around an us and a them.” Our country will always have issues and adversity that it must face. With that being said, we all still live in the United States of America. We as citizens, have the power to entertain our thoughts with happier things instead of the harsh negativity that political conversations often result in.
There are so many blessings to be counted, especially on a day centrally-focused on the idea of giving thanks. Here in Nebraska, we have been blessed with incredible weather this fall. Only in Nebraska could we sit through a Husker game in nearfreezing temperatures one day and comfortably stroll around campus in shorts while breaking a sweat just a few days later. It might not seem like much, but often, blessings can be seen in the simplest of things that we take for granted every day of our lives.
“We as citizens, have the power to entertain our thoughts with happier thoughts instead of the harsh negativity that political conversations often result in.”
There are plenty of things to talk about in this state, let alone this country and this world. You could talk about the Cubs winning the world series, why leaving your chewing gum on the sidewalk is actually terrible for the environment or even how school is going, no matter how many times you may be asked. It may seem difficult at times to stray away from discussing politics, but it is more than possible to avoid. On Thanksgiving, we are gathered together to celebrate and embrace the concepts of unity and understanding. We partake in the tradition of eating some delicious comfort food, probably taking a nice, satisfying nap after eating said food and maybe watching some quality football in the process. That is a beautiful thing. The tradition as a whole doesn’t really leave room or time to talk about

STRASSBURGER: It’s OK to move home after graduation Emily Strassburger staff columnist
There’s an expectation that once you leave for college you don’t go back home. It’s completely acceptable to move back over summer or live with your family over break. However, there’s this tendency to believe anyone who moves back home after college is a failure because they couldn’t make it on their own. But for the first time ever, 18 to 34- yearolds are living at home more than any other living arrangement. College graduates are getting married later in their lives and making less than their parents did when they graduated. It’s clear that these factors have an influence on people moving back home. The reality is, moving home after college isn’t necessarily bad or a result of poor judgement. Whether your only option is moving home or you’re choosing to spend your time that way, moving back can be extremely beneficial. For starters, moving home after college is obviously a financial perk. Average rent in the United States is nearly $1,000 a month. By living at home for a year,
you can save over $10,000 in rent alone. Even if you pay your parents rent, it would be cheaper than shelling out thousands to a random landlord. In addition, you can save on other utilities and expenses such as TV, internet, Netflix and the like. If you’ve lived away from home, you’ll also have a new appreciation for a real, home-cooked meal. Plus, you won’t ever need to worry about how you’re going to cook a meal under $4. Even if they don’t have to move back home, graduates can certainly use this situation to their advantage. If they get a job after they graduate and still live at home, they can save
up tons of money and get a head start on paying off student loans. The National Association of Colleges and Employers found that the projected 2016 starting salary for college graduates was slightly over $50,000. Most students during their collegiate years live off $10,000 a year or less in other expenses. If graduates continued that lifestyle and make the average starting salary, they could save $40,000 over the course of one year. As long as the graduates aren’t treating themselves too frequently, their living situation can have a significant financial impact on their future.
“You won’t ever need to worry about how you’re going to cook a meal under $4 again.”
In addition to the financial benefits, moving back home provides a support system. Instead of having mental breakdowns alone in your small apartment, as many of your friends will do, you can have mental breakdowns in the comfort of your own home. Unfortunately, there are several obvious setbacks to moving in with your parents after college. First, you’re going to be living with your parents. Yikes. You’re saying goodbye to all that freedom you enjoyed over the last four years. You’re going back to having your parents on your case 24/7, hovering over you and genuinely being the biggest annoyances ever. No more friends over at two a.m. just because you can or Friday night “study groups.” Chances are you’ll get a lot of opinions shoved down your throat, whether that be their concern over your sleep schedule, eating habits or why you haven’t done your laundry in three months. They’ll be on your case about everything you didn’t ever want to talk about. You’re going to be reminded of all the reasons

Senior Kevin Maurice leads NU’s defensive line mores, Mick Stoltenberg, tackle, and Freedom Akinmoladun, end, start alongside seniors Kevin Maurice and Ross Dzuris. Behind them is a group with very few snaps at the Big Ten level under its belt. There were games early in the season in which Maurice hardly, if at all, took snaps off. In mid-October prior to the Purdue game, defensive line coach John Parrella said, “Thank God,” Maurice had been able to shoulder a big load. He said that was vital in order to let guys like redshirt freshmen Carlos and Khalil Davis develop. Maurice has clearly had an impact in that development. “I’m just real comfortable with Carlos now, compared to spring and camp when, you know, he didn’t know anything,” Maurice said. “He’s come a very long way, and I’m going to continue to help him out and everything, but he’s grown tremendously, and whenever I need a blow or Mick needs a blow, I think we’re real comfortable being able to turn the keys to him.” Maurice jokingly went as far to say he is both Carlos and Khalil Davis’ father. Carlos recorded two tackles including one tackle for loss against Minnesota. Maurice leads the interior of the defensive line with 28 tackles on the season, including five tackles for loss. Banker said the defining moment for Maurice this season was the backto-back sacks he recorded at the end of the first half against Northwestern. Banker said Tuesday he believes Maurice is someone with NFL potential. Dzuris said interior linemen don’t typically blow you away on the stat sheet, but they don’t have to in order to make an impact. “Coach Parella will have a lot to draw on from a lot of film from Kevin,” Dzuris said. “Of constantly teaching guys how to do it the right way.”

The status of the Nebraska defensive line was a bit hazy after the Foster Farms Bowl win back in January. Maliek Collins and Vincent Valentine both left for careers in the NFL. Greg McMullen left the program, and Kevin Williams decided to play out his sixth year of eligibility at Michigan State. What was shaping up to be a group of veterans turned into a question mark head-
ing into fall camp after four early departures. Teams don’t get through ten games with only two losses without a solid defensive front. It has been a process, but the new Nebraska defensive line has stepped up in 2016. “Every sport, no matter what sport it is – baseball, basketball, obviously we’re talking about football – you have to be the strongest up the middle to begin with, and then you’ve got to get your playmakers on the edge,” defensive coordinator Mark Banker said after the Minnesota win. “We appeared to be pretty strong inside the tackles.” The second half against Minnesota was
perhaps this defense’s best half of football the entire season. It all started up front, shutting down the potent run game of the Golden Gophers. After giving up 67 yards on the ground in the first half, Nebraska held Minnesota to just 18 rushing yards in the second. The defense pitched a shutout in the second half, which was the first time Nebraska held an opponent scoreless in a half since Purdue three games prior. Nebraska held Minnesota 112 yards below its average on the ground. This hasn’t been the deepest position group on the Nebraska roster. Two sopho-

Maryland Terrapins to watch Saturday Zack Beyers dn staff writer
The No. 18 ranked Huskers host the Maryland Terrapins Saturday at Memorial Stadium for an 11 a.m. kickoff. Nebraska enters the game coming off a victory over Minnesota and tries to keep its Big Ten Championship hopes alive. Maryland tries to shake off a 62-3 blowout loss to Ohio State last weekend. Here are some key players to watch for.
Perry Hills, Quarterback The Terrapins 6-foot-2, 213-pound signalcaller has battled several injuries throughout his five-year career in College Park. He was poised to be the future of the program as a freshman in 2012, but only played seven games before tearing his ACL. During his sophomore season, he redshirted and returned to the field in 2014. Hills finally broke out as a star player for Maryland last year with 1,001 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns and 535 rushing yards. This season, Hills has been the center of an offense that churns out 393 yards per game while throwing for 1139 yards, 10 touchdowns and three interceptions.
Ty Johnson, Running back Normally, Johnson would be just one half of the usual running back duo the Terrapins use for their offense. Unfortunately, Maryland’s other prominent running back, Lorenzo Harrison, was suspended indefinitely for violating the team code of conduct before the Ohio State game last week. This means Johnson’s workload will be bigger than usual. The 5-foot-10, 210-pound sophomore has shown flashes of greatness this year, running for 656 yards and four scores on 77 attempts, including a 204-yard, two touchdown performance against Purdue.
Teldrick Morgan, Wide receiver The Nebraska secondary will have its hands full Saturday with the challenge of facing the talented Maryland receiving corps. Morgan, a 6-foot-1, 190-pound senior, has reeled in 38 receptions for 398 yards and three touchdowns this season. His production has dropped significantly since his sophomore year, where he had 75 catches for 903 yards and seven touchdowns.
D.J. Moore, Wide receiver Moore may not be the most targeted receiver for the Terrapins, but he is one of
courtesy photo the most skillful and explosive. Through 10 games, Moore has caught 31 passes for 469 yards and five touchdowns. He averages 15 yards per catch, and is a key contributor in Maryland’s passing game.

Nebraska rifle team uses doll as honorary mascot Becca Mann dn senior writer
james liu | dn
Nearly every sports team, at every level, in every league, has some sort of mascot. For the Philadelphia Phillies, it’s the Phanatic. For the Chicago Bulls it’s Benny the Bull. And at the University of Nebraska, it’s Herbie Husker and Lil’ Red. But that didn’t stop the women’s rifle team from electing a mascot of its own. Frankie, a black-and-white striped doll with bright orange hair, has become the team’s honorary mascot. The doll was a birthday gift to the team’s assistant coach, Rick Johnson, from his wife, Ann. “My wife gave him to me as kind of joke, and he’s become quite popular among the girls,” Johnson said with a laugh. “I joked with him at first because I used him as a correctional tool to get my point across, but now it’s all fun.” The doll is officially known as a “Dammit Doll,” but on the rifle team, he earned a name – and even a personality.
The Dammit Doll website features a variety of dolls and explains the reason for the name. “Whenever things don’t go so well, and you want to hit the wall and yell, here’s a little dammit doll that you can’t do without,” a description on the website says. “Just grasp it firmly by the legs and find a place to slam it. And as you whack the stuffing out yell, dammit! Dammit! Dammit!” That is written on the label sewn onto all Dammit Dolls. Senior Rachel Martin said although the doll seems a little unconventional as a team mascot, it helps lighten the mood. “Our coach uses him as a training tool and as a joke,” Martin said. “He has become our team mascot. We actually have an Instagram account that we just started for him. We take pictures and write him little stories.” The doll has been part of the team for about a month and can be found on Instagram by his username, frankmeister_the_boss. His

The position switch has been effective, as Cockerille has become a leader of a defense that allows only 228.7 yards per game. He is also one of the team’s leading tacklers with 87 total on the year, along with 42 solo tackles and a sack.

RIFLE: FROM PAGE 13 bio reads, “My name is Frankie and I’m the unofficial mascot of the Nebraska Rifle team. I like long walks on the beach, Christmas sweaters, and yes…I’m single.” Martin said Frankie provides a good laugh when tensions get high. The shooters stay focused on the target while on the line. But once in awhile, it’s good to relax, because staying calm helps shooters focus on the task at hand, Martin said. “When you’re on the line competing, sometimes, it is very serious, and sometimes, you just need to let go and relax,” Martin said. “When you see someone back there with Frankie, waving him around and doing something stupid, it helps lighten the mood.” Frankie often makes it into photo opportunities and has been to nearly every prac-
tice and meet. While the doll started as just a joke, he’s brought the team together and allowed the riflers to joke around. Early in Saturday’s match, UTEP shooter Mara Rouse had an equipment malfunction with her air rifle target. Rouse was given the chance to shoot later in the day at another target but was the only shooter on the line when the time came. S Frankie was volunteered to sit next to her on an open stand and keep her company. “Frankie, in a way, reminds us that we do this sport because it’s fun,” she said. “We do it because we used to shoot with our dad or our sisters. And it’s nice to remember why we started, so that it’s not just competing, so that it’s not just hard, but it’s actually fun.” SPORTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
political topics in the first place, and if you feel like stirring up an argument, you can eat some more food and nap longer instead. I can’t think of a better way to spend a nice break from classes and studying than with a face full of turkey and a nice, long snooze. Do you know what else doesn’t involve discussing politics during Thanksgiving? The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. If you are feeling depressed, there’s nothing like a lineup of giant, inflatable Peanuts characters to brighten your spirit. It would be so effortless to look at the characters in the parade and reminisce on what it was like to be a little kid wanting to be Snoopy more than anything in the world. If none of that seems to work or take hold, or you just simply don’t know why you should be happy in this day and age, try making a list of everything that you are thankful for. Start with the simplest, most elementary concepts. For instance, the fact that you are one of 7 billion people on this planet. There is absolutely, positively nobody exactly like you. The chances of you existing at all in this universe are slim to none but yet, here you are.
If nothing else, one of the most important aspects of Thanksgiving is being with family and friends. There should be tons of topics to talk about if you haven’t seen family members in ages. It means so much to the older generation that we as millennials can prove that we aren’t completely consumed by social media and emojis. Let them know that you care enough to at least listen to some crazy story they may have about their adolescence. Basically, what I am trying to say is even in the midst of a historic election, it is so easy to rant about the state of politics. It is much more meaningful to indulge in the art of conversation with loved ones about the weather, or sports or that rash that you can’t seem to get rid of--anything but politics. Believe me, you are much better off fighting over who gets the last spoonful of stuffing than who has the “right” political viewpoint and beliefs. BROOK BALLER IS A FRESHMAN PSYCHOLOGY MAJOR.

STRASSBURGER: FROM PAGE 11 why moving away was so dang appealing. You’re also returning to a place that really isn’t yours anymore. Your bedroom hasn’t been yours for several years, your space is now your parent’s space and most importantly, your home isn’t going to feel like your home. You’ll also feel awkward talking about your housing situation. Most people don’t like to brag that they moved back in with their parents, regardless of if it needed to
happen or if it was voluntary. However, nothing is permanent. Whether it’s your only option or not, living at home provides you a safety net while allowing yourself time to figure out the next steps. And no matter how annoying your parents may be, I think we can all agree we would put up with a lot for $40,000. EMILY STRASSBURGER IS A FRESHMAN MATH MAJOR.
