THE DAILY NEBRASKAN

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Former Daily Nebraskan employee fabricated quotes Dear readers, As journalists, our primary objective is to seek and report the truth. The Daily Nebraskan regrets to report that this week, we discovered one of our reporters had failed in that pursuit. On Wednesday, Oct. 12, 2016, it came to our attention a reporter fabricated quotes in a recently published article under the headline “UNL’s Johnny Carson School performs comedy ‘Fuddy Meers.’” The Daily Nebraskan has since retracted the inaccurate information included in the article in question, written by Mary Hope Mulcahy. We have also removed the reporter from The Daily Nebraskan staff. Mulcahy cited two sources: Emily Callahan and Adam Turner, both University of Nebraska-Lincoln students who were indicated in the story to have been involved in the production of “Fuddy Meers.” We have spoken to Callahan and Turner, both of whom have denied participating in an interview with a Daily Nebraskan reporter in reference to this story. The information attributed to these sourc-

es has proven to be false, and Mulcahy has admitted to fabricating quotes attributed to the two students. While Mulcahy has expressed regret for her actions, it has become clear that this is not the only article in which she included fabricated quotes. The Daily Nebraskan is working to verify the authenticity of the facts and sources included in the remainder of this reporter’s stories and will correct each of these stories as we are able. We were disappointed to find the reporter included false information in her work, but we also regret our own failure to recognize these errors in the editing process. We have reviewed our fact-checking processes and will continue to discuss how we can ensure errors of this nature are avoided in the future. We sincerely apologize to those affected by the errors – namely those who have been misrepresented as a result of Mulcahy’s fictitious reporting – but we also apologize to our readers, with whose trust we understand has been compromised. We are taking steps to rebuild this trust: Starting immediately, we are requiring report-

ers of all experience levels to submit source verification forms for each story, listing the name, title and contact information of each source cited. Regardless of our status as a student newspaper, we strive for professionalism in all of our endeavors. Readers, rest assured we will continue to work diligently to serve the University of Nebraska-Lincoln community in seeking and reporting what you deserve: the truth.

Sincerely, Lani Hanson, Editor-in-Chief and the remainder of The Daily NebrasLani Hanson kan staff editor-in-chief

Students can dine out, donate simultaneously staff

For some college students, there are many reasons not to eat out: time, money and more. But GroupRaise wants to change that. The social impact organization aims to give students an incentive to dine out and donate to a great cause at the same time. GroupRaise connects organizations and nonprofits with restaurants to raise money for a specific cause. Sean Park, co-founder and head of marketing at GroupRaise, said he and the other founders saw a boring trend in fundraising or donating — sitting in front of a computer and inputting credit card information. They wanted to change the process and make it more engaging and meaningful. “We saw that having a meal together is a great way to get together and share the things you care about, and at the same time raise money for things you care about,” Park said. “We kind of wanted to change the way people raise money by adding more social structure to it.” The company was founded in 2011 and while it started off slow, the company has grown in the last two months. Park said about 2,000 restaurants were added recently, totaling 3,800 restaurants in all 50 states. He said the organization also works with about 300 college campuses across the nation. There are four restaurants in Lincoln including Boss’ Pizza and Chicken, Pickleman’s Gourmet Cafe, Slice Pizzeria and the D’Leons Taco Rico on South Street. Park said GroupRaise works with many different groups, including college organizations, K-12 schools and local and national charities. He said people love how easy it is to create events. Partnering with GroupRaise is simple, he said. Organizations can go to their web-

julian tirtadjaja | dn site and select a participating restaurant in their city, then select a date and complete the request. From there, the participating restaurant will receive the request and all its information via email and decide whether to accept it or not. Park said once the restaurant makes the decision, the organization receives an RSVP page and is given the tools needed to promote the event online. People then can eat at the restaurant the day of the event, with a percentage of all sales going toward the organization. Park said jokingly that one of the reasons GroupRaise is so successful is because of the way millennials generally approach social situations. He noted that instead of talking to people, millennials do things online or via text.

“We saw that and basically replaced the process of calling the restaurant and negotiating by making the booking system online,” Park said. “That’s why a lot of college students and a lot of millennials just love how it’s so easy now.” Park said GroupRaise was built with everyday people in mind — people who may not know how to fundraise or promote events but need money for their organizations. One of the main impacts of the company is centered around fundraising, but it also focuses on getting people together to raise awareness. He said to raise awareness, it is important to get people together in person. “Just going out to eat, which is a very social activity, you’re literally engaging people in a way that you like,” Park said. “It’s

not necessarily asking people for money, but at the same time they can talk about things they care about and raise money at the same time.”

Student raises awareness, funds for suicide prevention Jessica Larkins dn staff writer

As University of Nebraska-Lincoln junior Alison Walla reaches for the barbell, she can feel her stress begin to melt away. Every lift, every push-up, every squat shoves her anxiety further into the depths of her mind. When she’s running, she isn’t thinking about her upcoming exams. When she’s lifting weights, she isn’t worried about graduating. For the nutrition exercise health science and pre-sports psychology major, fitness is more than just a way to stay in shape; it’s her outlet for raising awareness about mental health issues. At UNL, Walla lifts five to six times a week, sometimes adding cardio routines on top of that. Her dedication to being physically active is nothing new. At high school in Milford, she participated in several sports. But she traces the roots of her fitness to the mornings she and her dad would arrive at the gym at 5 a.m. so they could work out and lift weights together. Those memories are partly why his suicide came as such a shock this spring. According to Walla, he never showed any signs of depression. “He never ate very sugary sweets or anything like that,” she said. “If he worked out all the time and he ate healthy, how come this would happen to him?” After her dad’s death, Walla decided she had to do something to help others battling depression, anxiety and other mental illnesses. She added pre-sports psychology as a major this year with the ultimate goal of creating a gym to help people with different mental disorders. At her gym, people could have problems ranging from depression because he or she can’t lose weight, to anxiety and everything in between. She labeled her dream job as being a “therapist for athletes.” “Instead of giving them pills, I would be incorporating exercise and healthy diets into their lives,” she said. “Pills help me out a lot, but sometimes it’s not enough. The exercise part of it really helps me out. Going and just working out when I have anxiety helps me feel better about myself.” While she said her vision of a gym will have to wait until after she gets a masters in sports psychology, she still wanted to make a difference while at UNL. So she came up with the idea of selling t-shirts in order to raise money and awareness about mental health issues, specifically suicide prevention. The statistics on this issue drive her. According the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide was the 10th leading

cause of death in the United States in 2014 and the second leading cause of death for people aged 15 to 24 . Since college can be an especially stressful period in someone’s life, she wants more students and professors to be aware of this statistic, she said. She hopes professors could reach out to students who they see struggling in order to prevent further tragedy. For each one of her shirts sold, a dollar will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. T-shirt orders are currently not being processed at this time, but will be available to purchase again in the spring. As a member of the Kappa Delta sorority at UNL, the Greek community was important to her project. The shirts, which say “Greek Fit,” are aimed to start a conversation about

why exercise is a good way to improve both physical and mental health. Every girl in her sorority has been there for her during this difficult time in her life, Walla said. Some girls simply leave her notes in the morning just to say good luck on a test – small, kind gestures which have made a huge difference as she begins to heal from her loss. McKenzie Kuska, a junior nutrition and health sciences major and member of Kappa Delta, said the women in their house sometimes struggled with what they could say or do to help. But no matter what, they always made sure Walla knew they cared. “It’s kind of given her another family,” Kuska said. “She’s definitely the strongest person I’ve ever met, both emotionally and physically. She doesn’t quit.”

There’s more to fitness than becoming the biggest, fastest or strongest. For Walla, it’s about the joy it brings her and the connection it provides her to the memories of working out with her father. She hopes her situation will inspire others to never let a terrible event dictate the rest of their life, she said. “One of my big mottos is to take a stand against mental illness,” Walla said. “I think the impact I want out of these t-shirts is honestly to change what happened to me and turn it into a positive influence to help others.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Volunteers collect change for domestic violence victims Amzie Dunekacke dn staff writer

When she told him where and who she’d be working with, Kris Baack’s father couldn’t believe her. He didn’t think here, of all places, there’d be a need for a local shelter for victims of domestic violence and their children. “He looked at me and said, ‘We don’t have that problem in Lincoln.’” she said. But Baack knows better. After volunteering with the Friendship Home for more than 30 years, statistics like the fact that one in four women will experience domestic violence during their life linger in the back of Baack’s mind. As the director of leadership development within the UNL Center for Civic Engagement, Baack has brought this message to her Chancel-

lor’s Leadership Class by having students participate in the annual Safe Quarters coin collection. Safe Quarters is the Friendship Home’s largest fundraiser. It started 14 years ago with about 500 to 800 volunteers. This year, the event sent out 125 teams of volunteers — around 1,700 individuals — to go door to door, asking for donations and spreading awareness about domestic violence. Casey LaFramboise, a freshman civil engi-

neering major and a student in CLC, said this experience fits well into the group’s mission statement. LaFramboise said this last Sunday’s day of service brought home a lot of class topics such as how to be a leader and communicate with others. LaFramboise was particularly impressed when she and her team of volunteers knocked on one door and the man who answered said he didn’t have any money on him. “He just came back with an entire piggy

“... the few hours of work that we did on Sunday is actually going to have a lasting effect on the community.”

bank and gave us everything in it,” LaFramboise said. The CLC team of students raised a total of $1,034.63 during their day of coin collecting, according to Anna Arndt, the teaching assistant for the CLC. Arndt organized the class’ 35 students into teams and coordinated efforts on the big day. “To know that the few hours of work that we did on Sunday is actually going to have a lasting effect on the community is something that has impacted myself and the class,” Arndt said. Of course, the CLC team was not the only UNL team to participate in the fundraiser. According to Lauren Peterson, the development coordinator at the Friendship Home, there were 32 teams from UNL alone. Safe Quarters hoped to raise $100,000 this year. During just one day of receiving amounts ranging from a few cents to heftier sums, the service teams were able to collect a total of $101,965 . This money will go towards providing shelter, needed amenities and other services for victims of domestic violence in Lincoln. Baack believes that volunteering with Safe Quarters to help provide support for these victims — who often flee their homes with nothing but the clothes on their backs — reminds students that domestic violence is a problem everywhere. “We are living in our own little cocoons,” Baack said. “Domestic violence is one of those things that is like a disease that does not discriminate. It doesn’t matter what color you are, how much education you have or where you come from — it affects everyone.” The service project also forces students to think about how important it is to volunteer for the community. “I think all of us struggle with understanding our privilege. We all have privilege,” Baack said. “As students and leaders and people who have the privilege of getting an education, we have a responsibility to make the world a better place.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

TBT: UNL Rodeo Association’s debut in 1950 Elsie Stormberg dn staff writer

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln Rodeo Association was created on Oct. 11, 1950 by student rodeo fans in the “Ag Union” with the hope of creating a structure based off of fellow college rodeo associations. The association is still active today, albeit with different goals. Rox Coffman, president; Jack Manning, vice-president; Gayle Gutherless, secretary and Virginia Baskin, treasurer were elected as the leaders of UNRA in 1950. Also included were members Keith Young, Don Bever and Gene Gerdes. On Oct. 13, 1950, The Daily Nebraskan reported that the motivation for this new organization was to help prepare for the Ag college Rodeo [sic]. Necessary supplies for the event included animals, judges and various other equipment.

The Ag college Rodeo would be held in the spring along with the Farmer’s Fair and College Days. Prior to the events, the club hoped to host a few practice sessions for competitors. The next meeting was planned for Oct. 25 to understand the ideas and makeup of other college rodeo associations. Presently, UNRA is presided over by Dan Kent, a senior mechanized system management major, and Vice President Travis Kester, senior agriculture economics major, with guidance from advisor Jamie Bauman and the rodeo competition team coach Bump Kraeger. The team is ranked third in the region and 16th in the nation. Kent, a New Jersey native, joined the club as a freshman and has been an active participant since. Although he does not partake in the competition rodeo team, he assists by fulfilling managerial tasks such as planning events and leading meetings.

As a student in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, Kraeger competed in the UNRA. However, competition is only just a subset of the club, Kraeger said. “The original constitution is still in play with very minor revisions, and so it’s about supporting rodeo, educating rodeo and encouraging high scholastics for those involved in rodeo,” Kraeger said. “In recent years, it’s involved explaining and expressing rodeo’s connection with agriculture.” This year, the competing team has about 18 members and is growing. To be considered a team member, though, you must first obtain a competition card from the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association. The women’s team undergoes events such as barrel racing, goat tying and breakaway roping, whereas the men’s team has the roughstock events. “For the guys, the roughstock events are bareback riding, saddle broncs and bulls,”

Kraeger said. “The timed events are calf roping, steer wrestling and team roping.” Team roping is a dual-gender event. Kester did not start UNRA until junior year but is currently ranked 25th in the nation for steer wrestling. As vice president, Kester does quite a bit for the organization, both in and outside the arena. “When our rodeo is in town, we have a kids’ day and help spread the good word,” Kester said. “We teach kids about agriculture.” To Kester, rodeo is about much more than just wrestling steers. It’s about camaraderie and the act of competing. “You meet a lot of people throughout the state with similar interests,” Kester said. “It’s fun to work towards something, have goals and be apart of a team.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

CLOPTON: “Shin Godzilla” is snooze-worthy Ellis Clopton dn staff writer

When looking at it in a broad sense, Ishirō Honda’s 1954 kaiju-kickstarter motion picture “Goijira” had no right to be as successful as it was. In an age of ludicrously bad science fiction films, “Goijira” set the bar of insanity even higher with its depiction of a dragonlizard-shaped rubber suit lumbering out of the depths of the Pacific Ocean to tear Tokyo to shreds and destroy any that would oppose him. The dialogue was cheesy and the Americanized re-edit “Godzilla: King of Monsters” made it even worse with a particularly cringe-worthy performance by Raymond Burr. And let’s not forget that “Goijira” cost roughly $175,000 dollars to produce, meaning that it cost a little over $1 million to make, which is pretty cheap by most movie studio standards. Also, just to put the icing on the cake, the Japanese critics hated it and labeled it as offensive garbage that exploited the tragic imagery of post-atom bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But it didn’t fail, not by any stretch of the meaning. Godzilla would go on to become one of the most profitable franchises in the history of cinema, spawning 28 films, an entire genre of films, numerous toys, comic books, video games and a short-lived Hanna-Barbera Saturday morning cartoon. Why did it succeed where it clearly shouldn’t have? The answer is strange when one considers we’re talking about about a giant atomic fire-breathing lizard: straightforward artistic commentary on issues facing the film’s target audience. “Goijira” in a way helped the recuperating Japanese people come to understand exactly how destructive and powerful nuclear weapons have on the world. Instead of a bomb, we have a colossal invincible freak of nature capable of destroying the world should it choose to. It allowed the world to confront the potential for mass destruction the world had in store if humanity ever used nuclear weapons against each other again. Flash forward to 2016 and Toho (the production company behind every Japanese Godzilla movie) has produced “Shin Godzilla,” directed by “Evangelion” animator Hideaki Anno and “Attack on Titan” artist Shinji Higuchi. The film boasts the most terrifying and destructive depiction of the King of Kaijus himself and how the modern Japanese government would respond to such a catastrophic event. The setup is perfect and the Godzilla presented almost gives of a grotesque hellish vibe. The problem? It’s quite possibly one of the dullest monster movies ever and the political satire of Japan’s modern democracy doesn’t salvage anything.

The story is told from the perspective of several emergency response committees scrambling to do their jobs during Godzilla’s landfall in Tokyo. Several static characters are introduced all at once with incredibly wooden acting and the writing makes no attempt to make the viewer feel compelled to care about them at all, which is a major flaw when most of the movie features this gang of aspiring politicians and whackjob scientists. Throughout the course of the film, Anno consistently attempts to show how the bu-

while Godzilla just trudges around Tokyo aimlessly running into buildings. This sounds like an interesting idea until it turns out that a majority of the movie is spent listening to these one-dimensional characters argue and talk about nothing pertaining to the plot at all. Basically the conflict in “Shin Godzilla” is that Godzilla isn’t the enemy, it’s big government. It’s not an inherently bad idea, but it’s so completely forthright about out that the whole “kaiju monster destroying the city” takes a backseat for about an hour and fifteen

the characters can talk about how their constitution makes it easier for outside nations to pressure them into making irrational decisions. Speaking of falling asleep, right about the time two characters are sitting on a plane discussing a trade deal with France I yawned and looked around the packed movie theater I was sitting in. It was the film’s opening night for its limited theatrical release in the United States and at least one-third of the moviegoers were either already unconscious or nodding off. Another glaring fault is the film’s special effects and sound production. In the beginning, Godzilla is depicted as an originally aquatic creature that quickly evolves into a land-roaming one. While admittedly cool to see the different stages of development, the CGI is inexcusably horrendous for a studio of that caliber. The very first time Godzilla appeared on screen, the audience around me burst out laughing while I could barely keep myself from shaking my head at this literally googley-eyed digital abomination. Once he reaches his final form, the studio switches back and forth between a puppet Godzilla and a CGI one, which both look equally terrible since the difference is painfully apparent. The soundtrack composed by Shiroō Sagisu has taken obvious inspiration from the orchestral themes rubber suit days, the sound quality is atrocious and the same goes for the special effects. Each explosion sounds like it was recorded from a cell phone inside of a tin can and the famous Godzilla roar sounds like it was cut directly from the 1950s movies and pasted into this one. It’s incredibly jarring and grinds at your ears. “Shin Godzilla” isn’t the only modern monster movie that attempts to take the genre in a different, more intelligent direction, but unfortunately these “intellectual” monster movies tend to sacrifice that quality entertainment the genre is known for for superficial depth in themes. The movie was boring, preachy and forgot the very identity the series’ legacy is based upon. If this is the new direction monster/kaiju movies are going, then fans looking for a fun romp should look elsewhere for the time being. “Shin Godzilla” is currently showing at Marcus Theater in downtown Lincoln.

DICKINSON: “Deepwater Horizon” is captivating Kendall Dickinson dn staff writer

Released Sept. 30, “Deepwater Horizon” is an explosively suspenseful film that tells the story of the tragic, heroic and overlooked events that happened prior to the BP oil spill. As the story beings, we take a look into the life of Mike Williams (Mark Wahlberg), an on-board electrical engineer. We see him at home with his young daughter and wife Felicia, who is played by Kate Hudson. Although only briefly onscreen, she and Wahlberg created a natural and believable relationship that we see throughout the film via Skype. As Mike says goodbye, it seems to be just another day on the job, not the beginning of a potential end. An offshore oil rig employee works a 14/21 day rotation, meaning they have 14 days on board and 21 days off. We board the Deepwater Horizon and are immediately immersed into the life of an oilrig worker. Mark Wahlberg’s character shows us

around the rig, which we learn the basic structure and layout of, along with technical terms. And I have to give a hand to the writers, because it is impressively detailed information, yet surprisingly obtainable throughout the film. We are then reintroduced to a few of the other important workers (played wonderfully by Gina Rodriguez and Kurt Russell) who demonstrate the ropes of their jobs, voicing their concerns of the rig’s stability, but are unaware of the tragedy that has already begun. The villains of the film are a few BP executives who happen to be on-board that particular day, the wickedest of which is Vidrine, played by John Malkovich. With the ability to hide his fear under visible greed and an insane Cajun accent. He is frightening, really. It’s apparent he’s the most corrupt of the executives, as he has no concern for the experienced workers, or their professional opinion, turning them down as he declares he’s never wrong, and doing so with a nightmarish grin. Kurt Russell plays a Transocean manager, Jimmy Harrell, whom many call Mister Jimmy.

pha nguyen | dn

Jimmy is an experienced worker, and is as tough as they come (to add a little more insight, he’s one of the few who continues to work in this profession today). Right off the bat, he butts heads with Vidrine, because he doesn’t like what he sees from the BP executives. Russell is outstanding, as he portrays a man who runs a very organized, repetitively safe ship. On the day of the explosion, Jimmy accepts his seventh consecutive award for being the best guy at safety. That’s true, that actually happened - depressingly ironic, isn’t it? The anticipation rockets as Vidrine goes against Jimmy’s requests and continues to run negative-pressure tests on a pipe that’s ready to blow. And then a jarring montage of scenes erupt on screen as the explosion begins - and there’s no stopping it. Here, we take a deeper look at Andrea Fleytas, played stunningly well by Gina Rodriguez. Andrea, who instinctively calls in “Mayday!” is an improperly-trained monitor for the safety systems at the time of the explosion. Through this character, Rodri-

guez brings innocence and honest work to the oil-rig, leaving a memorable mark on “Deepwater Horizon.” The film only continues to escalate as panic on board rises. The workers we are familiar with keep composure, as they are determined to keep the damage to a minimum, attempting to close the oil-well before it spills. Paralyzing fear doesn’t quite justify the true horror I felt watching the disastrous story of the Deepwater Horizon. Director Peter Berg does a tremendous job of putting viewers into the fiery action and frightful emotions felt by the workers. Berg put together a deeply moving film that ends with a gratifying tribute to the lives lost on the Deepwater Horizon. “Deepwater Horizon” is a horrifying thriller that doesn’t forget about the core of its story: worker’s heroism. After seeing this film I can without a doubt say that offshore oil-rig work the last job I will ever choose. “Deepwater Horizon” is currently playing at Marcus Theater. ARTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

CHOW: TwitchCon 2016 offered unique experience

Leland Chow dn staff columnist

It was the first convention I’ve ever attended, and I didn’t know what to expect. The whole place was covered in purple. Everyone was wearing badges, ranging from normal, day-to-day badges to the blue partnered

streamer badges. I immediately felt like I was home, although I was many miles away from my physical home in Malaysia. TwitchCon took place Sept. 30-Oct. 2 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego. According to the TwitchCon website, it’s a celebration of all things Twitch. If you haven’t heard of Twitch yet, it’s a live streaming platform mainly for games, but it also has music and creative sections, which I’ve written about. As I have no classes on Thursdays and Fridays this semester, I took a long weekend and went to San Diego for a vacation. I wanted to go to TwitchCon not because of the games, but because of the people. As mentioned in my column, I’m not an avid gamer; I’m more fascinated by the music and creative sides of Twitch. Hence, it was much more important for me to meet the streamers and also some viewers I’ve chatted with

online. Not only did I manage to meet up with viewers and my favorite streamers, I also hung out with them, attending panels and eating dinner with them. More importantly, I was even a part of their streams. In CharlieStMonica’s stream, I was one of the only viewers eating dinner with other streamers. Yes, social eating is a thing in Twitch. In a trio stream with ChaseSings, Richiix27 and LtChicken, I was a part of a live audience, in which I got to see them perform music for a stream in front of my eyes. These experiences were definitely one-of-a-kind, and I would not have experienced them if I hadn’t attended TwitchCon. TwitchCon also offered quite a few panels. Although most of them were for gamers, there were a few panels that involved the creative sections. One was a panel titled “The Creation of Twitch Creative,” in which staff in the creative section talked about the history

and future of Twitch Creative. It was interesting to see how the creative section grew with new categories. Another panel I attended was “The Future of Live Music,” hosted by A Couple Streams. I was intrigued by the various stories of how each panelist started playing music on Twitch. Yet another panel I attended was “Setting Up a Professional Multi-Cam Live Music or Creative Broadcast on a Budget”, hosted by SceneofActionMusic, or Monty. As Monty uses a multi-cam (as many as eight cameras) setup to stream when he plays music, his setup included many foot pedals to control the cameras. Surprisingly, I learned many things from these panels, although I don’t stream at all. Like most game or comic conventions, TwitchCon also offered an expo floor that had a number of games, including Rainbow Six

KYLE: Social media is more helpful than harmful

Kayla Kyle dn staff columnist

If I have to read one more piece about how social media is ruining the world, I’m going to lose it. There are some points I agree with when it comes to the dangers of social media. For instance, it is easily manipulated by dishonest people, whether it’s through advertisements or the opinions of others. Social media makes it easier than ever for someone to express an opinion, even if that opinion is hateful. Social media has done harm in the past and will continue to do harm in the future because anyone

can access it. The simple fact of human nature is sometimes people are cruel. If not moderated, it can be very easy to slip into a social media black hole where nothing exists but you and your Facebook account. It can sap the productivity from your life and become a huge distraction. All of that said, there is nothing inherently evil about social media. At its core, social media is simply a tool for people to share ideas and thoughts with the world. It wasn’t intended to be a platform where bigoted individuals go to spew hate. In addition, it’s not meant to be a place to escape all your responsibilities. Those examples come from the misuse of the tool, not the nature of the tool itself. Ignoring all of these benefits and constantly complaining about its negative aspects portrays it as an evil entity. This is an inaccurate and one-sided way of thinking. Social media is a fascinating concept that can benefit people in many different ways. It connects you with people, gives you unlimited access to digital media and provides access to ideas of all shapes and sizes. Much of my personality has been cultivat-

ed through the use of technology and social media. I would not be the person I am today had I not spent hours reading articles on Rookie, an online magazine, or had access to hundreds of TED Talks through YouTube as an adolescent. They challenged my viewpoints, taught me life lessons and helped me understand myself and my surroundings as much as anything the outside world provided me with. For teenagers, it isn’t realistic to have access to the newspaper every day. As such, I found myself falling behind on news. A few months ago, I made the decision to follow The New York Times on Twitter and have since found myself constantly caught up on current events. Making an active effort to follow these news outlets through their social media and websites made global news more accessible than ever. The ability to catch up on anything going on in the world is a blessing. It’s not a privilege everyone has, and to dismiss this is incredibly ignorant. Has Twitter kept me away from doing assignments in the past? Yes. But has it also provided me with several different viewpoints and changed how I think about certain top-

ics? Definitely. Social media doesn’t have to be something that distracts people from the events happening in the world. It can be used to bring awareness to these events, along with giving multiple perspectives. When Walter Scott was shot by a police officer in April 2015, it was social media that allowed the public to uncover the truth of his death. The video of the shooting was uploaded to YouTube after the shooter attempted to cover it up by saying it was an act of selfdefense. The video, spread by social media, clearly showed Scott being shot in the back eight times as he ran away. This is not the only time video footage has exposed police officers for their brutality against black people. Had there not been a platform to spread this video, who knows if these things would have ever come to light. Social media can be incredibly powerful and crucial to tragedies like this. There is nothing more powerful to me than seeing people come together from all around the world to create things and connect with each other. Websites like HitRecord,

Judd finds inspiration through writing songs David Stover

assistant sports editor

In 2007, Apple released an animated advertisement depicting a silhouette of rapper Eminem confidently strutting to the bass of “Lose Yourself.” Nebraska golfer Audrey Judd was 13 when she and her friend Nina Park saw the advertisement, and Judd was immediately intrigued. Judd said she viewed Eminem as a motivational figure, and even to this day, hears his song reverberating through her head in highpressure moments on the course. When she was a senior in high school, she

had an opportunity to become the first golfer to win back-to-back Kansas state golf titles. Before she began the round, she heard Eminem’s lyrics pulsating through her head. “You only got one shot, do not miss your chance to blow. This opportunity comes once in a lifetime,” incessantly played through her head. She did it, becoming the first golfer to win consecutive state titles. Her parents Chad and Betsy did not originally let her listen to rap because of their family’s devout Christian faith, but she did not let it stop her from learning more about the genre.

Besides golf, music has always been central to Judd’s identity, beginning at the age seven when she began playing the piano, which was later accompanied by originally written lyrics. When she was 13, her Aunt Sheri bought her a black and white electric guitar. She took guitar lessons for a year, and later received a drum set from her parents for Christmas. Judd, Park and her friends Rachel and Mitchell Meyett formed a band that featured Judd on lead vocals, lead guitar and lead drums. The band had no name, but was a creative outlet for Judd to express herself around her friends.

When Judd thought about seeking out produces to receive a record deal, her father, Chad Judd was blunt about her pursuing a musical career. “My dad said, ‘you’re good a lot of things, the singing isn’t one of them,’” Judd said. When Judd heard that, she didn’t get demoralized, she saw it as an opportunity. Judd always had a knack for writing, she attended writing conventions and won numerous awards, but it wasn’t until eighth grade that her writing truly blossomed. She took a poetry class that stressed similar characteristics to rap music; diction, iambic pentameter, pacing, simile, metaphor, alliteration, illusion, paradox, enunciation, the list goes on. These literary devices made sense to Judd, and it was a way of demonstrating her aptitude for words and language. Judd became a curator of the human experience, writing about personal experiences, family, peers, love, humor and golf. “I probably have written 100 songs,” Judd said. On team flights, she types notes on her cell phone, and sometimes shares her raps with her teammates. She once wrote a song about the golf team having a delayed flight, and being stuck in an airport. “It’s something that helps me digest my thoughts,” she said. While golf is something she plays for others- her father, grandfather and uncle- she writes her raps for herself. Judd has never lacked confidence, as one of the golf posts on her Instagram reads, “They tell me be humble, man I’m cocky as hell.” Her grandfather knew that she was special after seeing her tee up her own golf ball at age 6, and hitting the ball far down the center of the fairway. Judd has never been afraid to be herself, and relish new opportunities. She’s a goal setter, and a goal achiever. She may have not received a record deal, but through her process of intertwining rapping with golf, she has not lost her self. She has found herself. SPORTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Indiana Players to watch Saturday

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2016 • 13

Nebraska to play Illinois, Northwestern

Zack Beyers

Trev McDiffet

dn staff writer

dn staff writer

The Huskers travel to Bloomington, Indiana Saturday to take on the Hoosiers after coming off a much needed bye week. Indiana is led by sixth-year head coach Kevin Wilson, who looks to bring the Hoosiers to their first above .500 record since 2007. If IU wants to upset Nebraska Saturday, these are the players who need to perform well.

After dropping a match 3-0 to Minnesota, Nebraska attempts to move its conference record above .500. On Thursday, Nebraska hosts Illinois followed by another home match against Northwestern. Last time on the pitch, the Huskers were outshot by the Gophers 14-8. Six of Nebraska’s eight shots came in the second half. However, Nebraska plays against one of the Big Ten’s lowest scoring offenses on Thursday against Illinois. Nebraska sits 8th in the Big Ten conference standings, with a 3-3-1 conference record and 9-5-1 overall. Through 15 games this season, the Illini are ranked 12th in the Big Ten in goals per game (0.93) and in points (2.67). Conversely, Illinois has been on the winning side of back-to-back three goal games, including a 3-0 win against then, No. 19 Michigan. In the Illini’s last 3-1 win against Michigan State, sophomore forward Patricia George came off the bench and scored two goals in the win. Joining George on the offensive side are senior midfielders Allison Stucky and Reagan Robishaw. Both have two goals on the season, and are tied for second on the team in goals scored. Last time Nebraska faced Illinois, NU suffered a 3-1 loss. The game was tied 0-0 at the half, until Illini forward Kara Marbury netted goals in the 52nd and 57th minutes. Marbury has two goals this season. Following the Huskers matchup with the Illini, the No. 22 Northwestern Wildcats come to Lincoln. The Wildcats share a second place tie in the Big Ten standings with Minnesota.

QB Richard Lagow Lagow arrived in Bloomington this spring after transferring from Cisco Community College in Texas. As the starting quarterback for Cisco in 2015, Lagow threw 2,285 yards with 21 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. ESPN rated him as the topranked pocket-passing junior college quarterback in the country. In his first five games as a Hoosier, Lagow has thrown for 1,460 yards with 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions. His best performance so far came against Michigan State in week 5, where he threw for 276 yards and two touchdowns in the Hoosiers 24-21 overtime victory.

RB Devine Redding Last year, the junior from Youngstown, Ohio ran for 1,012 yards and nine touchdowns. With star running back Jordan Howard now gone to the NFL, Redding was projected as one of the top 5 running backs in the Big Ten going into 2016. Through the first five games of the year, Redding has run for 491 yards with no touchdowns. In Nebraska, Redding faces a defense that allows 151.8 rush yards per game.

WR Nick Westbrook With his impressive size (6-3, 215 lbs.) and athleticism, Westbrook has the abilities to be one of the Hoosiers most dangerous offensive weapons. Last year, the sophomore from Lake Mary, Florida had only six catches and a touchdown. In 2016, however, Westbrook has demonstrated to opponents why he is one of the top receivers for Indiana. Through five games, Westbrook has caught 20 passes for 437 yards and four touchdowns. His best game this season came in a loss to Wake Forest in week 4, where he caught six passes for 129 yards and two scores.

tyler schank | dn WR Mitchell Paige Another one of Indiana’s skilled offensive players, Paige has been an important player for the Hoosiers each time he steps on the field. Last year, Paige had 57 receptions for 684 yards and six touchdowns. He is also dangerous on special teams, returning 18 punts for 199 yards and two touchdowns last year. Paige was named as an honorable mention All-Big Ten as a return specialist last year, and has continued to be successful in 2016. Through the Hoosiers first five games, he has caught 22 passes for 261 yards and two touchdowns. He’s returned three punts for 45 yards, with a long 31 yard return against Michigan State in week 5.

LB Tegray Scales A leader on the defensive side of the ball, Scales is one of the most productive players on the team. Last season, Scales recorded 64 tackles, 40 solo, three sacks, two interceptions and four pass breakups. Scales has established himself as a disruptive threat both in the backfield and in the passing game. This season, he has recorded 45 tackles, 32 solo, two sacks, and an interception. The sophomore out of Cincinnati looks to outperform his numbers from last year, and continues to be a bright spot for the IU defense.

DB Marcelino Ball As the only freshman starter on Indiana’s defense, Ball has definitely earned his keep this season through the Hoosiers first five games. Ball has recorded 36 tackles, 26 solo, and an interception. Ball has proven himself against Big Ten powers Ohio State and Michigan State, and will be one of several athletic playmakers on the Hoosier defensive this season. SPORTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

COLLEGE SKI & BOARD WEEK

karissa schmidt | dn Northwestern has posted on the conference’s best defenses. Junior goalkeeper Lauren Clem currently leads the Big Ten in shutouts (10) and has the highest save percentage in the conference (0.71). Clem has also allowed the least amount of goals in the Big Ten this season, giving up only five. The Wildcats are winners of back-toback games, defeating Michigan State and Michigan last week. Prior to Sunday’s matchup against Nebraska, Northwestern travels through Iowa City for a match up against Iowa. Northwestern has lost one game this season, coming back in September against Rutgers (0-2). The Wildcats had three shots in the game. Nebraska hosts Thursday night’s game at 7 p.m. and Sunday’s match up against the Wildcats at 1 p.m. sports @ dailynebraskan . com

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN

CHOW FROM PAGE 11 Siege, H1Z1 and Battlefield 1. But I was definitely more interested in the Creative Corner, which featured some of the most fantastic artwork by various creative streamers. Some creative streamers even set up their own booths, where they could sell their art to convention attendees. When I first told my friends I was going to San Diego for a convention, most of them immediately said: “You’re going to ComicCon, right?” Of course, TwitchCon was not as big as Comic-Con, as this was only its second year. The most recent Comic-Con had more than 130,000 visitors, and TwitchCon only had 10,000 attendees. This didn’t mean it was less enjoyable. On the contrary, it was probably because of the smaller attendance that I enjoyed the convention more. The lines to get into the convention were not ridiculously long, and the wait was equally bearable. If anyone is interested in going to a convention, I would definitely encourage them to do it. I planned everything in advance so I could finish all college obligations and still attend TwitchCon. In fact, if you can’t make it to the first day of the convention, don’t fret.

Most conventions, including Comic-Con, PAX and Anime Nebraskon, run through the weekends. So, if you still really want to go to a convention, go during the weekends. I would also highly recommend people stay healthy before, during and after the convention. This might seem like a ridiculous idea, but yes, convention flu (or con flu) is real. Although TwitchCon was not as packed as I feared, I felt sick the day I left San Diego for Lincoln. I had runny nose and lost my voice. Luckily, with some adequate sleep and by drinking lots of fluids, I recovered quickly and felt better in the next few days. All in all, TwitchCon 2016 was probably one of the best events I’ve attended this year. I felt like I was a part of a community that was very welcoming and kind. As a first-timer convention attendee, I felt Twitch did a great job organizing a large-scale event for its community. I’m excited and can’t wait to see what’s in store for TwitchCon 2017.

KYLE: FROM PAGE 11 YouTube and Vimeo have brought people together under the common purpose of creating something meaningful. Even Facebook, a website used mostly for trivial encounters, made a significant impact in people’s lives. For example, the Facebook Safety Check-In enables people to check in during natural disasters and lets their loved ones know they’re safe. With the current situation of Hurricane Matthew, the role of social media becomes even more necessary. Of course the internet isn’t always this happy, jolly place full of butterflies and rainbows. It has hurt people and enabled cyberbullying. It can be addicting to the point where people ignore their outside responsibilities. It would be unfair to not mention these things when

discussing this topic. However, deeming social media as an evil thing that brings everyone down and harms our generation is completely ignoring all the good it does. There are so many benefits to being involved in the online world. I have never looked at my (sometimes excessive) internet usage as a bad thing because I’ve taken away so much from it. Like everything in life, social media is a balancing act and has good and bad parts. In the case of social media, the positives outweigh the negatives. KAYLA KYLE IS A FRESHMAN JOURNALISM MAJOR.
