MOOCs, online courses to be expanded as part of enrollment push

University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s projected increase in online enrollment will target distance graduate students. At his State of the University address last week, Chancellor Harvey Perlman said online enrollment will be an integral part of reaching his goal of 30,000 students by 2017. The university will increase funding for

“I can’t think of any way that it’s going to have a negative impact.” The Affordable Care Act requires all Americans to be insured. Options are available through workplaces, the health care marketplace, parents’ coverage and the university. Dr. James Guest, director of the health center, isn’t sure how the Affordable Care Act will affect the university. The UHC will be monitoring its effects for at least the first six months. According to Guest, more than 90 percent of college students say they are covered by insurance. By federal law, young adults up to age 26 can be covered under their parents’ health insurance. “We don’t know if that’s going to change the number of insured,” Guest said. “Nebraska, comparatively, has a higher rate of insured young adults than the rest of the country.” There is some preventative cov-

erage that will be covered under the new law that haven’t been in the past, such as wellness exams, immunizations and birth control pills. All plans will be required to cover these measures, but many of them are already covered under the student health policy. Through the policy, a student can receive care at the health center at no additional cost. If a student goes elsewhere for service, he or she would pay 20 percent of the cost while the insurance would cover the remaining 80 percent. “If you need insurance coverage,

look at the student health policy. It’s a special type of individual policy,” Guest said. “We’re not on the exchange, so there’s no subsidy to it, but the coverage is much better than some of the lower, bronze policies.” Regular insurance providers may not adequately cover students who are studying abroad. Repatriation and medical evacuation, for example, may not be covered. The student health policy, however, will pay 100 percent of the cost to bring a student back to their home if he or she dies

online courses and experiment cautiously with expanding opportunities, which he said could include massive open online courses (MOOCs) or blended courses. MOOCs are online classes offered by universities such as Harvard and Yale and are designed to offer quality higher education for free. The Committee on Institutional Cooperation, the consortium of Big Ten schools, is also looking into a conference-wide collaboration for online courses, Perlman said. Marie Barber, executive director of Online and Distance Education, said the push for online enrollment will focus on graduate courses because grad students are more likely to take courses online. “At this time, UNL does not have many undergraduate (online) pro-

Spotty Internet frustrates students in residence halls Increasing number of Internet-capable devices puts strain on UNL-AIR Kelli Rollin DN A poor Internet connection can be a college student’s worst nightmare, especially if an online test was assigned. Since the beginning of school, 17 problem cases related to the wireless network have been reported, said Michael Ruhrdanz, director of infrastructure and operations for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Information Technology Services. Brie Camilleri and Jessi Sackett, both freshman mechanical engineering majors, are roommates and residents of the lower level in University Suites. Camilleri and Sackett said they experience connection problems with the wireless network often. They said their connection is bad more than it’s good. “We have to go to upper levels to get on the Internet,” Camilleri said. Sackett said one day she was in the middle of taking an exam on Blackboard and the connection cut out. She said the connection is better in the individual rooms than in the common area of the suite, which is odd because the access point is in the common area. Sackett and Camilleri said they don’t see a correlation with having their own access point in their room and good wireless connection. But Sackett said, “That might be because we’re in the basement.” Camilleri said she and her roommates haven’t contacted ResNet services because they assumed other people in the lower level are having the same problems. Ruhrdanz said a factor in slow connection is the number of devices each student has con-

cops briefs microscope, drills missiNG from east campus greenhouse

University of Nebraska-Lincoln police officers were sent to the Agronomy Greenhouse Complex on the university’s East Campus in response to a reported burglary Friday at 10:25 a.m. Items missing include an electronic microscope, two cordless drills, a corded drill, a reciprocating saw and a gas card issued for a university vehicle. The amount of the missing items is about $1,700, according to UNL Police. There was no detected forced entry into the complex, according to police. There are no suspects at this time, and police are still investigating.

skateboarders caught outside wick alumni center

Police responded to a report Friday evening about six juvenile boys who were skateboarding outside of the Wick Alumni Center. None of the boys were cited for trespassing, according to police, but were made aware of the no-skateboarding policy outside the center.

fraternity prank ends without charges

A prank between two UNL fraternities ended with police response Sunday at 1:30 a.m. Members of Beta Theta Pi reportedly stole items and trashed an area of the Theta Xi fraternity house. Police said a glass pane on a composite window was broken. Neither fraternity wanted to press charges or have the incident further investigated. Because of this, the case is not being classified as a criminal act. The names of the fraternity members who were involved are unknown.

non-students fight in stadium drive garage

A man who is a non-student reported being assaulted by another man who is a non-student at the Stadium Drive Parking Garage on Saturday evening. Police said the assault consisted of one of the men grabbing and pushing the other. Names and ages for both men have not been released and the case is still under investigation.

note taking tips The University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s academic success workshops continued Wednesday with “I can’t read my notes!,” led by Cheryl Pflueger, an academic success coach. Pflueger provided different ways to take notes and how to review them into long-term memory. She approached teaching with a hands-on technique, telling students to take notes on the session using Cornell-style notes — a method involving writing lecture notes in the right column of the page and going back over the notes by writing key words on the left column. Pflueger had the students test each other at the end of the session.

There are three simple steps to note taking. 1. Observe — Read the chapter before class. You won’t need to take as many notes and will be able to listen for clues given by the professor such as “first” or “then.” Repeating something is also a clue that the information will be on the test. 2. Record — Show up to class and write class notes. Cornell-style notes are an organized format for note taking. For more visual learners, there is the option of “mind mapping,” or spider webs. Draw a bubble in the middle of the paper about what the lecture point will be on that day. Then, make sub-bubbles off of that to write down information about the lecture point. Another important part to recording is to write down the date of the notes incase a professor assigns a test based on one date to another. 3. Review — Lock the notes into long-term memory. Re-read the notes the same night the class was held. Then quickly look over them right before the next class. Review at the end of the week and soon notes will be imbedded in long-term memory. Before a test, edit notes and quiz yourself on the material. If there are questions still unanswered, use the professor’s office hours and get them clarified. —Compiled by Nicole Rauner art by rebecca rickertsen news@dailynebraskan.com

ASUN creates committees, program reece ristau dn The Association of Students of the University of Nebraska met on Tuesday and passed two amendments to the ASUN Bylaws and Special Rules: a change to the Communications Committee and creation of the Environmental Leadership Program. An amendment to Bylaw C created committees to increase the visibility, communication and social interaction of ASUN with the student body. Subcommittees were formed, including Greek Outreach, Residence Hall Outreach and RSO (Recognized Student Organizations) Outreach. In addition, two new positions were created: a social media manager and a historian. Jeff Story, the external vice president of ASUN and a junior English and political science major, said the changes to the Communications Committee are about outreach.

“It’s making sure we have someone delegating different tasks to improve communications with students,” Story said. Eric Reznicek, the president of ASUN and a senior finance and marketing major, said he would entertain an amendment to the amendment after it was brought up by senators because of the new positions created, an off-campus representative was missing. That amendment passed unanimously, as did the bill. An amendment to Bylaw B created a program called the Environmental Leadership Program. The goal is to develop future environmental leaders on campus to make UNL more environmentally friendly. Participants will work on environmental projects and obtain knowledge on environmental issues. They will also focus on resource management and awareness of UNL’s impact on the environment. “It’s a collaboration we’ve been

plans compare well to the marketplace plans. “For college health and for students, it will be fairly positive,” Yankech said. “I think the student health insurance plan will remain affordable.” Guest agreed. “The student health insurance plan that we have meets ACA requirements, and we’re a Blue Cross Preferred Provider Organization,” he

The Environmental Leadership Program, abbreviated ELP, will consist of 20 freshmen and sophomores. The bill passed by a large margin.

Sen. Shannon Pestel, a sophomore turfgrass and landscape management major, and Sen. Tayler Hough, a junior communication studies, broadcasting and journalism major, were both nominated to head the committee. Voting on the nomination will take place at the ASUN senate meeting on Oct. 2. NEWS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

said. Though the health center’s insurance coordinator resigned during the privatization process, there are now two employees who work with insurance issues. According to Guest, young adults should see active recruiting by the government and insurance agencies. Insurance risk pools need premium dollars from people who won’t need to use it, he said. The ex-

changes are expectant of young people up to age 26 to be joining this. “Students should expect a lot of ads aimed at them, honestly.” Guest said. “My advice is to be wary, consumers. Look carefully at and compare the benefits as to what you might need, and remember that the subsidies are actually tax credits.” news@ dailynebraskan.com

career: from 1 of career success. He said UNL should focus on what exactly Career Services has to offer students and make these services more accessible to students. “Our activities here should become more visible and more systematic and ... we should embrace public scrutiny of our accomplishments.” Perlman said in his address. Watts will be collaborating with deans to deliver an academic audit of programs and services currently available. Additionally, each discipline should provide information as to how education in that particular discipline relates to career opportunities. The integration of individual colleges and Career Services will be vital in this process. Currently, the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, the College of Business Administration and the College of Engineering have embedded career service professionals. These colleges

have very high career placement rates, Perlman said. He suggested that graduates from successful colleges be more closely monitored. The outcomes could be published on a website. After collecting data and examining current resources, the university “might then design a menu of best practices for career assistance and suggest outcome measures against which each undergraduate major could evaluate its progress,” Perlman said in his address. Incentives are discouraged and competition between colleges shouldn’t be a focus, Perlman said in his address. Career Services offers a wide spectrum of career developmental services for freshmen who may have an undeclared major or for seniors and recent graduates. Services available include help from career counselors, determining interests with The

Strong Interests Assessment, providing information about job shadowing, volunteering and informational interviewing. Although there are no plans for additional services to be added, it could be a possibility in the future, Watts said. He said the first step is determining what services students are using. Senior geography major John Jackson said he used Career Services to build his resume.

“They’re really good,” he said. “Take advantage of it and ask lots of questions.” Along with providing information, Career Services also holds a Career Fair, which typically takes place in the fall and in the spring. The Fall Career Fair started Tuesday on East Campus and continues through Thursday on City Campus in the Nebraska Union’s Centennial Ballroom. news@ dailynebraskan.com

time and students should plan accordingly. Online classes differ in instructional practices, Doll said, but they “simply require that the instructor use the technology in the service of learning.” She said the key to online courses is for the professor to build a relationship with students so there is interaction in the course. Asking questions, exchanging ideas and working together on projects are examples of student interaction, Doll wrote. Nate Munier, a political science graduate student, is teaching comparative politics online with about 25 students. He said most of his students take a combination of online courses and traditional classes. And

he said it’s important to tell students to always ask questions about what they don’t understand. For Munier’s class, students have to watch a Power Point lecture ,read the assigned text and participate in the discussion board each week. Doll said that online classes aren’t necessarily easier or more convenient. “They will require as much time, effort and diligence as it requires for a classroom-based course,” Doll said. Performance in an online class really depends on the students and how much time they put into it, Munier said. “Time management is even more crucial,” Munier said nEWS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN,COM

online: from 1 grams,” Barber said. About 14 percent of graduate students take classes online. Last year, 2,192 students took online courses exclusively, while 7,904 students took a combination of online and traditional courses. Distance students “can’t come to campus for their classes or they are in other states, but they’re getting a UNL degree,” Barber said. “They can’t come to a traditional campus because of their situation.” Perlman said he doesn’t expect online enrollment to bridge the gap between current enrollment of about 25,000 and his enrollment goal, but he stressed the importance of adapting to the online education movement. Online education “can increase our teaching capacity without

adding buildings,” he said. Barber said the Office of Academic Affairs will determine whether to increase undergraduate online enrollment and the decision will vary program by program. She said she doesn’t know if there will be an increase in faculty at UNL because of online courses, but she knows that it will not decrease. “Faculty are key to successful online education,” Barber said. Currently, faculty receive a small portion of tuition paid for online courses. Perlman said administration is considering increasing that percentage as an incentive. Beth Doll, associate dean of the College of Education and Human Sciences, wrote in an email that taking online classes requires a lot of

The University of Nebraska’s Rural Futures Institute has hired an Oklahoma museum director with Nebraska roots as its founding executive director. Charles “Chuck” Schroeder will start Dec. 1. Schroeder has been president and executive director of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum since 2002. He’s also served as CEO of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, executive vice president and director of development at the University of Nebraska Foundation and director of the Nebraska Department of Agriculture, according to a university press release. And he worked with the Schroeder Cattle Co., his family company, for more than 30 years. Schroeder said he’s “enormously excited” to take on the position an work to revitalize rural life in Nebraska. “There have been many, many institutions and organizations dedicating resources toward the interests of rural people and places, but this is certainly the most comprehensive, aggressive effort to truly change the trajectory for rural people not only in Nebraska and the Great Plains but potentially around the world,” Schroeder said in the press release. Ronnie Green, University of Nebraska vice president for agriculture and natural resources, said Schroeder is “the perfect choice” for founding director. “His unique combination of leadership experiences, coupled with his deep roots in and passion for rural America, will allow him to instantly be a transformational leader for the Rural Futures Institute,” Green said in the release. “We are immensely pleased to have him coming back to his native Nebraska to lead the program in its critically important developmental phase and look forward to his enthusiastic engagement with all of the NU campuses in this effort.”

UNL should put online education move on hold The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is progressing with two of Chancellor Harvey Perlman’s initiatives announced at his State of the University address last week: improving the university’s career assistance resources and experimenting with online education as a method to increase enrollment. The former is a much-needed move to aid students after graduation; the latter could be a misappropriation of resources. The goal of improving career assistance resources and, hopefully, outcomes for graduates, is well-suited for the uncertain economic climate students currently live in, where a steady paycheck seems harder to come by every day and relatives with pessimistic opinions about our job prospects abound. As Perlman said in his address, focusing on career potential will “give a context to the pursuit of the degree and may lead to better retention and graduation” — and it could inspire some colleges that lag in career preparation efforts to step up. It’s comforting to know that our chancellor is thinking not just of our college careers but also our fates after graduation. And encouraging colleges that don’t already to do so to collect data on what its graduates do after commencement day is similarly comforting, because it will give undergraduates a better idea of what to expect after they walk across the stage and face adult life. The Daily Nebraskan editorial board doesn’t have quite the same level of praise for the online education boost. The idea isn’t bad — certainly, it’s following the general direction of American society toward all things Internet, it could help Perlman reach his enrollment goal of 30,000 and it represents an admirable effort to make education more readily – and perhaps cheaply – available to those who can’t make the trek to Lincoln or foot the bill of tuition for traditional courses. But as numbers remain gray regarding the price tag of the online boost, it’s unclear whether the move will be worth the cost and whether UNL should be taking the lead with online education. UNL is a good school and a Midwestern leader, but it’s not Harvard or Yale. Why not let the Ivy Leaguers test out the value of MOOCs (massive open online courses) and other strategies and save the exertion for meeting Perlman’s lofty enrollment and expansion goals? Perlman said he doesn’t expect the enrollment boost from online classes to bridge the gap between current enrollment of 25,000 and his 30,000 goal. So if the enrollment payoff won’t be significant, why bother now, when the university faces a tight budget and a low ranking among its Big Ten peers? The effort, the money and the innovation could be better utilized elsewhere. opinion@dailynebraskan.com

Find out if you live life to the fullest

F

ind out if you are living life to its fullest. I’m not getting any younger. I came to this realization last night as I was typing a research paper. Not only was I getting extremely tired, but I had the screen set to 200 percent enlargement. As I pondered the situation, I realized there are several things I just can’t do anymore. I can’t drink all night and not get a hangover. I can’t stay up for three days in a row. I can’t fit into those Speedos. Naturally, this has me concerned. It’s got me a-wondering. Have I really done everything I’ve wanted to do in life? Will I ever come to a point where I say, “Damn it, I should have peed off the balcony”? For Pete’s sake, there are already several things I won’t get to experience. Brett Butler playing in Dodger Stadium. Or hearing Stevie Ray Vaughn in person. Or touching my toes again. So, I’ve decided to devote my life (what’s left of it) to preventing others from suffering my fate. I’ve developed this short test for you to check and see if you’re living life to its fullest. Just read the following questions and add up your points. The Test Question No. 1: For every state you’ve visited, add 1 point. Lived in, add 2 points. Been arrested in, add 5 points. Question No. 2: For every sexual partner you’ve been with, add 1 point. Been with that were related to each other, add 3 points. Been with that were related to you, subtract 15 points.

Question No. 7: For every time you’ve gone bungee jumping, add 5 points. Gone skydiving, add 10 points. Gone Frisbee golfing, subtract 50 points. Question No. 8: If you read my column every week, add 3 points. Read Todd’s, add 5 points. Don’t read the opinion pages because you’re afraid of being offended, subtract … never mind. Question No. 9: If you first got drunk before the age of 18, add 5 points. Before 21, add 1 point. Before your little league games, add 10 points. Question No. 10: If you drink Mountain Dew, subtract 15 points. Jolt, add 5 points. Unleaded gasoline, add 50 points and stop smoking.

Personal kinky practices are nobody’s business

T

hose of you who got uncomfortable in sex ed class might as well move on to the sports section — this won’t be easy for you. This column is going to be discomforting and disquieting. You’ll probably wish you hadn’t read it, so I’m telling you not to read right now. This week, I’m going to talk about sexual deviancy. I can tell you’re squirming already. What brought this on, you ask? Two words: Marv Albert. In hearing about the case, I was surprised how many people were talking about the “other” behavior besides what they were prosecuting him for. Assault should have been the topic of discussion, not whether or not Albert dresses in women’s clothing. The things I’m about to address are all based on secondhand information, not personal experience. I have never done any of the following things, so don’t assume I have — I have enough trouble getting a date as it is. Let me just say it now — my opinion is that whatever you do in your bedroom, or on your living room floor, or wherever you want to do it as long as it’s in the privacy of your own home, is your business. Prudish Americans talk about doing it “the old-fashioned way,” but there never really has been an old-fashioned way, now, has there? Sure, people like to say

that there is a right and a wrong way to go about sex, but it’s really all personal preference. The word deviancy is actually a misnomer, because the only “traditional” norm occurs when two people (one man and one woman), with the intent of procreation, have sexual intercourse. But is procreation honestly the point of most sex these days? We’re all hedonists at heart, aren’t we? Satisfaction is our sole goal. The rest of the world exists as a sideline to occupy our minds when we aren’t enjoying ourselves in one way or the other. Trying to research how far the various forms of sexual “deviancy” date back is a hard thing to do, mainly because of the amount of controversy surrounding any research on the topic. No matter how you look at it, sexual concepts that don’t fit into the perceived “standard” have been around a very, very, very long time. Homosexuality can be traced back at least to Roman times, if not much earlier. Cross-dressing has been around a while, though I couldn’t put a date on it. Bondage goes back at least as far as the Marquis De Sadé, as does sadism/masochism. Dominance/submission has been around since we came down from the trees. Take a long, hard look at this next sentence: I think there is nothing wrong with any of this.

What it comes down to is that people have the right to do what they want to in their house with almost no exceptions. I will, however, say that pedophilia and necrophilia are illegal and deserve to be that way because the recipients are without choice. Children don’t know any better, and the dead can’t say anything. With everyone else, you choose the way you live. If pain’s your thing, as long as you don’t go overboard, that’s your business. I’m not going to hold anything against you. The same goes for submission, or crossdressing. After a great deal of negotiation, I convinced a submissive, who asked not to be identified, to be interviewed. He was one of the most polite people I’ve ever spoken with. We talked on the phone because he lives on the East Coast. He always referred to me as “sir” and he never spoke out of turn, always waiting for me to finish before he answered.

It took a while for me to understand why he does what he does. He lives a normal life most of the time, but in his recreational time, he serves a mistress, whom he never spoke about with anything other than respect. He was dedicated to keeping her happy, no matter how humiliating her request. “During the day, I’m a business executive and I give a lot of people orders. Sometimes you just have to relinquish control to someone,” he told me. “You can never be a good master until you have been a good servant. There are too many people giving orders in my world who have never taken them, sir.” I had trouble finding anyone who wanted to talk about their sado-masochistic tendencies, but after a great deal of searching, I convinced one person to talk to me. She also declined to be named and is also from out-of-state. She told me that she enjoys rough physical contact — the rougher the better. “I like feeling pain. It’s like pleasure, but not so calm. I’ve never gotten hurt and you know from the outset that you have to be careful. That’s part of why it’s so exciting — there’s always that possibility that you might get hurt,” she told me. I asked both the submissive and masochist if either of them had any home problems growing up and both of them assured me that they lived perfectly nor-

mal childhoods. The submissive was a divorcee (both of them had been unfaithful, he told me) and the masochist had been married to her husband for more than nine years. She told me he had no problem playing along with her desires. Despite repeated attempts to find a cross-dresser to interview, I found myself unable to get in touch with anyone. I got an e-mail saying “I don’t think any of us will want to talk to the press about it -there’s always that fear that you might use it as blackmail.” It was from an anonymous sender. See, the fear only goes to prove what I’m saying. The point really becomes, I suppose, that it’s nobody’s business but your own what you choose to do in your private life as long as no one gets seriously hurt. People’s private life is just that — private. It shouldn’t matter if you’re the world’s biggest star or the couple next door — I didn’t ask and I don’t care. I realize the people prosecuting Albert were nonconsenting adults, but the point is that this kind of thing has happened before and continues to happen every day. The media and the rest of the world need to mind their own business. It’s your thing — do what you wanna do. Cliff Hicks is a junior newseditorial and English major and a Daily Nebraskan columnist.

Heardit throughthe grapevine Dale Lilyhorn, the founder of Windcrest Winery, explains last Friday night the different varieties of grapes he grows. Lilyhorn first started planting grapes in 1998 and has expanded the vineyard to a total of five acres.

Lincoln’s Bluestream vineyard continues to create variety of wines

These rows of grapes at the Windcrest Winery wait for the PH levels to lower before they can be picked. These grapes will yield three to four tons of grapes per acre. This grape variety, know as St. Vincent grapes, wait to be picked at the Windcrest Winery.

ebraska’s harsh winters and intense summers may not seem optimal for something as delicate as vineyards. But with more than a dozen wineries and vineyards, many are still trying to make water into wine. Though many of these wineries reside in Western Nebraska, Lincoln has multiple vineyards in nearby cities, such as Bluestem Vineyard and Nursery, Windcrest Winery and James Arthur Vineyard. Bluestem, owned by a husband and wife, uses its land as a vineyard, tree nursery and rental space for weddings and other events. In August, the space was also used to host a country music festival titled “Frog Fest.” The owner of Bluestem, who wishes to be remained anonymous, said the idea to purchase the vineyard came from her husband who grew up in small-town Nebraska. “He was not a farmer but had that itch,” she said. “He’s always talked about wanting to grow grapes. It just started out wanted to grow grapes, not really making wine or anything for it. But then once we starting thinking about it, we thought it would be cool to have someone make wine out of the grapes. He’s more of a wine connoisseur than me.” Gene Ackland, one of Blue-

stem’s full-time employees, said the vineyard began as more of a hobby for its owners who are also employed full time as cardiologists. Though Bluestem hosts an impressive 48 acres in total, only a small amount of that land is used for the vineyard. “We just have about three acres of grapes,” Ackland said. “Then we grow the grapes and take them to another vineyard in Central City, and they process it and make it into wine,” Ackland said. “We also do some tastings throughout the summer. We changed it to about once a month instead of every weekend, and have bigger tasting parties.” Ackland said though he has a background in agriculture, working with the vineyard was a learning experience. He said once he began working as a landscaper for Bluestem, taking care of the grapes simply became part of the job. “I was involved in landscaping for 20 plus years, and I have a bachelor of science in agriculture, so I do have an (agricultural) background,” he said. “Once I became involved with the grapes, I just kind of learned by doing. I get a lot of help, though; there’s plenty of books and stuff to read on the internet and people around here.” Bluestem currently creates six different varieties of red, white and blush wine. Depending upon

Literary magazine strays from mainstream scene Madeline Christensen dn It’s open mic night down at Crescent Moon Coffee, and the usual Lincoln writers have gathered to read their work. This Monday they’ve come to laugh at their own poetry from angst-filled teenage diaries and early attempts at fiction writing dug up from their mothers’ basements. “It’s so bad,” said Amy Keller, who brought her own 13-year-old musings. “I was crying last night when I read through them.” The point is, they’ve all started somewhere, and the culture surrounding poetry doesn’t always have to be the avante garde standard that has taken over the publishing world today. That’s the driving force behind creators and editors Keller and husband Jeff Martinson’s local literary magazine, The Lincoln Underground. The idea for the publication came to them in 2012 at an open mic night at Indigo Bridge bookstore in the Haymarket. “There was a small group of people coming in, and we thought there was some really great stuff being read,” Martinson said. “We wanted to preserve it, and so we thought of starting a literary magazine.”

Martinson had previous experience after working on a Lincoln literary magazine in 1997 and at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s undergraduate publication, Laurus, for several years. “When we first started, the pieces came from mostly people we knew,” Keller said. “We got one or two submissions by email from people who responded to a flier. After that, people started finding us online. We have an editor who found us online who lives in Brooklyn who just said he liked the tone of our magazine and wanted to be a part of it.” Keller, Martinson and many contributors of the magazine still meet up at open mic nights and poetry readings like tonight’s every week. It’s that community that sets The Lincoln Underground apart from many other literary magazines, Keller said. “A lot of (literary magazines) can come across as a little bit academic and maybe snobby and unapproachable,” she said. “We’re about 95 percent local, and I think that’s why we’re a little bit different.” Martinson said that growing out of something so organic and away from the mainstream

This Tuesday, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln student body was called upon. We were asked to tweet about our day, to Instagram our lives and to Vine our dreams as part of UNL24. Very few did. Instead, many took the chance to goof around and have some fun with the trend. The arts staff read through hundreds of #UNL24 tweets to find the ones that had us laughing the hardest. Here are a few of our favorite tweets from #UNL24.

Dizzy Wright talks positive impact Business major Alex Lucke dn

impressed at Chemistry talk

IF YOU GO

Dizzy Wright isn’t in a hurry to rise to the top. He raps for his daughter, for the kids who have nobody to look up to. And he’s slowly learning how to make that impact last — good vibes, as he calls it. Signed to Hopsin’s independent hip hop label Funk Volume, Dizzy Wright will be at the Bourbon Theatre tonight as part of his Golden Age Tour with Scru Face Jean, Emilio Rojas, Futuristic and ShiShi Sakari. Dizzy Wright took the time to talk to the Daily Nebraskan over the phone about his influences and messages in his music. Daily Nebraskan: What music do you listen to during downtime on your tour? Dizzy Wright: I like to listen to Bob Marley. I like to listen to Bone Thugz. I like to listen to Naas and Damian Marley. I like to listen to Lauren Hill. I like listening to the Roots; the Roots have good music. DN: So would you say that Bob Marley is one of your biggest influences? DW: Yes, Bob Marley as a person. Of course, his music was a reflection of him but him as a person, you know? It wasn’t about money. He had that heart of trying to figure out and understand the world. He’s got that good energy you know? I mean that’s just what I’m about. DN: Is that what you’re all about? Just rapping to rap?

Scru Face Jean with Dizzy Wright, Emilio Rojas, Futuristic and ShiShi Sakari when: 8 p.m. where: The Bourbon Theater, 1415 O St how much: $15 in advance, $17 day of show DW: That’s what it is. DN: How are you able to send such a positive message with your music? DW: Because it wasn’t about rapping at first. It’s never about that. Like, I got to a point where I was like, if I’m gonna go to college, I want to go to college to do something that was in the direction of helping people like these young black kids in projects neighborhoods. I remember being that kid in my neighborhood, and some track record would come to the boys and girls club and talk to us about how guns are bad and just put good vibes into us. I mean, it helped for a moment. I realized that it helped a lot more than I thought it helped you know, because I’m telling you about it. Over 12 years ago, me talking to this dude still sticks with me. It affected me because it made me want to be that too. Then I

MILES ROTHLISBERGER

There was once a UNL student who, by an impulse of curiosity, decided to enter a chemistry-related seminar at Hamilton Hall. God only knows what he was expecting to learn; he was a business management major. No one hears about CEOs discovering cold fusion or molecularly deconstructing quarks in an atom or anything of that sort. But, regardless, he sat in the room. This was his intriguing yet ultimately silly adventure. In a cold, alien lecture room that he had never been in before and likely would never enter again, he found an empty seat. People who looked as if they belonged there surrounded him. His polo shirt and jean shorts clashed with the surrounding dress shirts and business suits. But, he figured, it’s nothing. He would be fine. That’s when he looked up at the projection screen, which read “Directed Assembly of Anisotropic Particles — Fundamentals and Energy Related Applications,” and realized whatever god or entity there was in the sky abandoned him here and was laughing at his ignorance. After three seconds of contemplation, the student rose up from his chair, hoping to somehow sneak out of the room like a Cold War spy sneaks out of enemy territory without appearing rude. That’s when the speaker, Ning Wu, started his lecture, caging the poor business major within a room of scientists. The time was 3:35 p.m. The student had been caged in by etiquette, and he figured he had nothing better to do. He sat back down. His confidence actually grew a fraction of a degree as he thought he might as well learn something. The lecture would not be too confusing. Between 3:35 and 3:39, he was barely able to follow along. In the train of chemical knowledge that Wu presented and spoke of, the student was just holding on with a pinky finger that was being hammered repeated by the train hobo of even more confusing chemical knowledge. The student learned — questionably — about the similarities in shape, size and organization

COURTESY PHOTO started rapping, I started writing my thoughts down and I just got good at putting them with beats … that’s how we got here. This rap shit is — all I wanted to do was help young [expletive] you know? But when I rap it made me think bigger than that, to be able to motivate everybody. Old, young, little, big, white, black, brown, pink, whatever. This is what I’m gonna do, I’m just gonna take care of my daughter and put some good vibes into the world. DN: Do you feel blessed to be a role model for your daughter? DW: I’m blessed that I have unconditional love in the world. I’m blessed that I can teach my daughter

how to be a young lady. And to be her dad. Hopefully the things that I do motivate her, but it’s about being her daddy, at all costs. DN: Did you ever think you’d be as big as you are today? DW: At one point, yeah. I said it was gonna take awhile. I’m doing it slow, but I’m not trying to jump the gun, you know? I’m taking my time with everything I’m doing, and I feel like I deserve this position. Because of that it makes me feel more comfortable with myself. Like I’m happy with myself and with my life. arts@ dailynebraskan.com

VINEYARD: from 5 the weather and harvest for each year and the type of wines the winemaker is going for, wine flavors may differ from yearly. “We have two reds. One is kind of a drier red and one is a sweeter red,” Ackland said. “We also have a blush, that’s kind of a spicy, sweet wine. Then we have three whites. One is sweet, another is semi-sweet and then there’s a dry one. That’s pretty basic but every year they’re a little bit different, you just don’t get the same kind.” Preparation for the growing of the grapes begins towards the end of winter to the beginning of spring depending on the weather. Once the harvest is complete, the vines are left until the next year when it is time to cut and prepare the grapes for the next fall. “From the end of February anywhere to the end of March will probably be when we take them clear back to a bud, basically we trim them down to almost nothing,” Ackland said. “And then, as they start growing, that’s when you spray them to protect against fungus and insects, and in the spring that’s usually every 10 to 14 days. You also kind of have to control how much they produce. So there’s a lot of trimming and managing them. Then, when the time and weather is just right, we have to net ‘em all, which is when we puts nets over them all, otherwise the birds get them real quick. It’s a lot of work.” Because of the variations in Nebraska’s weather, the times for harvest may differ each year

of colloids, or organic molecules such as enzymes or proteins. There was a mention of styrene in order to “polymerize” colloidal dimers. (He asked the man next to him to learn what polymerize meant; basically learning it meant “to create” in a fancy way.) From there, unfortunately, the student’s brain began to physically combust and decompose, causing the student to fall onto the ground with his head becoming larger and larger until … Nope. The student had only fallen asleep. The time was 4:01. The seminar was destroying him (just as a dinosaur can destroy an eyelash). But his eyes, bursting with a second wind of energy in order to finally comprehend what was being told, determinedly looked up at the board only to find an army of equations to slowly drop his IQ and self-worth by a couple notches. However, his brain was saved from complete annihilation. Once Wu began to refer to the organization of colloidal polymers in certain salt contents as specific “crystals,” the student spent ten minutes of recover by drawing tasteful crystals. Wu began talking about a term known as “self-diffusiophoresis,” which involved, well, the student never knew — he was too busy drawing damn crystals. It can be debated, at this point, how the student’s attention-span matched that of a puddle of mud, however, the student finally redeemed himself by intently listening to the conclusion. With the unique properties of anisotropic molecules and colloidal molecules, according to Wu, one can manipulate the colloidal dimers for energy-related applications, such as by using them as molecular “drones” for inter-biological studies as well as diagnostics and solving of problems at the molecular level. Even with a cranium that felt as if it had been in an oven for 12 minutes, hell for 13 years, and in the maw of an alligator for another 12, the student still felt proud of the work done by the bright minds of Wu and his assistants. With a pride swelling for the greatness of UNL’s inhabitants, the student walked out of the room with a positive attitude. Unfortunately, this only lasted for around fortysix seconds, for he realized that the NASDAQ stock went down by three points, and he had lost $500. Ah, the life of a business major. arts@ dailynebraskan.com

These grapes are sweeter than store-bought grapes, but contain a pit and tougher skin. as well. Typically harvest occurs toward the end of summer and beginning of fall as things begin to cool off but before a frost can occur. “We harvested, I think, five different times this year,” Ackland said. “That varies from year to year. We just did our last harvest on Monday. We probably did the first one at the end of August

or middle of August. Last year we had all the grapes out before the first football game. It just depends on the weather, it’s not exactly the same from year to year.” Because Bluestem’s vineyard is not as prominent as other parts of its business, they tend to sell their wine locally and straight from their vineyard rather than putting in stores for the general

public. Ackland said they will ship it sometimes, however, especially if someone requests it for an out-of-state wedding. Because of the owners’ occupations and love for the art of creating wine, Bluestem will likely remain a small and local business for years to come. “We probably will keep it more on the hobby level,” the owner said. “We probably won’t go into mass-marketing.” arts@ dailynebraskan.com

Oh Land’s new album ‘Don Jon’ barely scratches is forgetful, repetitive surface of gender message talent, the rest of the songs contribute nothing new to the genre. Her music can be simplified as electro-pop, while “Wishbone” has evolved it into a funkier and more beat-reliable style. The melodies are forgetful, and every somewhat catchy line is repeated more than needed. Until at the end of the album, the only songs that stand out are, in fact, the singles that kept me interested in the first place.

Zach Fulciniti DN

Danish singer Nana Oland Fabricius’ ‘The Boxer’ has few memorable, unique songs

OH LAND Wishbone thought out stories behind them, but they’re not hard songs to listen to. She plays with the idea of singing softly with a strong beat, but she doesn’t let it drive the whole album, and even though the track list doesn’t run together like “Wishbone,” it still carries an overall theme. Part of “Wishbone” sounds like it’s on the verge of something great, a new addition to the discussion of electro-pop. It could be a push in the right direction, but unfortunately, her fans will have to wait for the next album to tell if that’s true. arts@ dailynebraskan.com

Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut is regrettable. The writing is weak and superficial, the editing is epileptic, and the themes are thoroughly unexplored. Don Jon is the story of a man named Jon who sleeps with lots of women, but like “every guy,” he watches porn every day. He’s got life down to an exact science, until he realizes his sex life is dissatisfying. So he decides to pursue romance with Barbara Sugarman (Scarlett Johansson), because she’s the first woman who refuses to sleep with him on the night they meet. And also because she’s a “10.” Along the way, and with the help of an estranged woman named Esther (Julianne Moore), he realizes sex and relationships are a two-way street. The first act actually does a decent job of breaking down the reasons for porn addiction and unsatisfying sex. Porn can be whatever you want it to be, and the girls are willing to do anything. You can stare at breasts, butts or whatever other aspects of the female anatomy tickle your fancy. There’s no expectation of effort on your part. You just watch and wank. Sex will be unsatisfying if you expect it to be

like porn, though. It’s quite taxing, but you have to enjoy it for what it is. Jon learns that lesson the soft way. And by that I mean he’s forced to give up porn. So yes, these themes are presented skillfully, but then ignored. Jon learns nothing from Barbara except that women can be selfish, too. And while it’s true that selfishness is gender-blind, the lesson seems counter-productive in the context of a movie about a guy trying to learn how to enjoy women for what they are and to think of them as people. And while Barbara takes issue with his porn obsession and insults his manhood because he likes to clean his own apartment, she doesn’t care that on their first date he calls her the most beautiful “thing” he’s ever seen. She demands he hire a maid but doesn’t mind being an object to him. And no one ever calls Jon out on his use of the words “pussy” or “fag.” At the end, when Jon’s Catholic faith is briefly shaken, the moment is subsequently cast aside and never revisited. Gordon-Levitt highlights the problems with men like Jon, ham-fistedly resolves a couple of them and leaves the rest in the dust. Considering the movie’s 90-minute runtime, such blatant surface-scratching is a tad insulting.

Netflix pick of the week: ‘Memento’ Zach Fulciniti DN Most people by now are familiar with Christopher Nolan and his body of work. Whether it be through the “Dark Knight” trilogy, “Inception” or even “The Prestige,” Nolan has made himself into a household name over the course of the past decade. But prior to 2005’s “Batman Begins,” before he had ever made a blockbuster or had even seen box office success, Nolan was already responsible for one of the most inventive psychological thrillers ever. “Memento,” released in 2002, was Nolan’s second directorial effort. So much for the sophomore slump. “Memento” is the story of Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce), a man suffering from anterograde amnesia, the result of a home invasion that left his wife dead. The film chronicles his efforts to find his wife’s killer. Because his brain is unable to store new memories, Leonard leaves notes for himself, takes pictures with a Polaroid camera of important evidence and even acquires tattoos of the most important pieces of information he needs to remember in order to solve his wife’s mur-

der.

The truly inventive thing about “Memento,” however, is that the story is told in reverse chronological order. The first ten minutes of the film is the ten minutes that occurs last chronologically. The next sequence is the ten minutes that occurred before that, and so on and so on. This allowed Nolan to mimic the effects of Leonard’s amnesia, disorienting viewers and forcing them to piece together clues in much the same way Leonard has to. Evidence to him is simply evidence, he can’t grasp the circumstances because he can’t remember them and as soon as he does understand, his brain short circuits and he loses it. In the film, we think we understand, we think we have the proper context to piece together the clues, and then we glimpse ten minutes further into Leonard’s past, and every single sequence forces us to reassess what we think we know about the events that led to the demise of Leonard’s wife. Yes, the film is disorienting, confusing to an extent, but the story itself is compelling enough that we accept the challenge, and it is told with enough skill by Nolan and his players that our confusion is usurped by a sense of awe. arts@ dailynebraskan.com

publishing scene is what makes it work. “I can’t speak for everybody, but most literary magazines don’t go around to open mics looking for work,” he said. “They wait for the work to come to them, we try to go out and find it.” After publishing its first 40page edition in the winter of 2012 with 100 copies, the Lincoln Underground has since doubled in size. It now includes fiction, poetry, photography, art and even song lyrics. “We really provide a bridge to the larger publishing world for a lot of people,” Martinson said. “I think we’re a little more nice and nurturing compared to some other magazines. If we have to turn somebody down, we tell them why and our reasons.” Keller and Martinson’s attention to the writers came from Keller’s own experience in the publishing world. “I once wrote a novel — it was a cozy mystery novel — and I read the books on how to go about writing letters and sending your novel to publishers,” Keller said. She did, and sent out 10 query letters and got 10 rejection letters back. “All the rejections were like, ‘Sorry, we’re not interested in this at this time.’” she said. “They were almost carbon copies of each other. I learned since then that I’m a better poetry writer or non-fiction writer than fiction, but the problem was I wanted to know what I was doing wrong. Is it because I hadn’t been published before? Was it because they had too much of the genre? It doesn’t help anyone know how to become better.” The magazine also inspired Keller and Martinson to host monthly writing workshops for anyone interested in the community. “We want to help people find their voices,” Martinson said. “We want people to express themselves, and that’s what is most important to us. Everybody has something to say, and we want to help them say it.” Keller and Martinson also felt the need to rid magazine of any false pretenses that many literary magazines had already established. Naming their publication The Lincoln Underground was a move to make it clear that they were an alternative to the traditional. “A lot of times when you submit to literary magazines, they’ll look at where you’ve been published before,” Keller said. “They want you for the amount of respect you have, and we really don’t care about that. I mean, we publish things from professors, but we also turn down professors.”

Instead, The Lincoln Underground looks at the work and only the work. “What I find is that a lot of modern poetry comes across as vague and unrelatable,” Keller said. “There tends to be a lot of that published.” “We’re not avant-garde,” Martinson continued. “We look for things that have emotion. We don’t want to portray the ugly for the sake of portraying the ugly.” With this in mind, The Lincoln Underground has become an advocate for great writers, no matter the experience. They’ve published a 15-year-old poet in lieu of a professor with a Ph.D., simply because one had better emotion. “Some people we include in the magazine have been published a lot, but for others it’s their first time,” Keller said. “We have so many great stories about people’s experiences seeing their work published for the first time in our magazine.” One comes from Morgan Mathis, a contributor who sat among the group of open mic regulars at Crescent Moon. He’s told his story many times: “I had put off submitting for a long time until one night I read a poem about family and finding yourself at an open mic,” Mathis said. “Jeff asked me to submit it, and I was really flattered so I sent it in. They put it in the next edition. “My mother has been a writer forever, and I think she had only been published once. When the magazine came out, I of course bought enough copies for everyone. I sent one to my mom with a marker next to my story, but I didn’t tell her what it was. About a week later I called and asked if she had gotten the package, and she had. She said she opened up the package right out at her country mailbox, started reading, and just sat in the car and cried. She was so proud that I had gotten published.” Because he’s been writing since age 12, Mathis said finally having an outlet for his work is a great way to open up. “People don’t judge you here,” he said. Nineteen-year-old Nyakim Wal, a younger writer in the group, will also be published in the upcoming edition. “It’s my first time ever having anything of mine published,” Wal said. “It feels awesome. I’ve been writing for a while, but there’s just a great atmosphere for creativity here.” For Keller and Martinson, The Lincoln Underground is a passion project. They break even with publishing costs and profits every edition, and they

But they wouldn’t do it if it was about spinning a profit. “I think the idea is that we want to make the world a better place,” Martinson said. “That doesn’t mean all hearts and flowers and nice, but we want to make a difference, and the bottom line is that there is a lot of great writers out there, but I don’t know that there are many of the right venues for them. We want to be the opportunity.” You can purchase the next edition of The Lincoln Underground at A Novel Idea Bookstore, Bodhi Imports, Crescent Moon Coffee,

football practice notes INJURY UPDATE

For the second week in a row, senior quarterback Taylor Martinez was out of uniform Wednesday. The starting quarterback wore only shorts and a T-shirt during Nebraska’s practice. Martinez is recovering from a turf toe injury that kept him on the sidelines during the Huskers’ game against South Dakota State last weekend. The Corona, Calif., native wasn’t the only Husker starter out of pads Wednesday. Junior Kenny Bell was in his Husker practice jersey and shorts as well, sitting out after suffering an injury during the first half of last Saturday’s 59-20 win against the Jackrabbits. The wide receiver fell on his shoulder while attempting to catch a pass from Tommy Armstrong Jr. in the end zone. Bell said he feels OK and is using the time out to recover for next week. “It feels good. Trying to get 100 percent,” Bell said. “I’m fine.”

BYE-WEEK IMPROVEMENTS

After a couple of days of practice this week, Nebraska coach Bo Pelini said he has seen sparks of improvement from his team so far. “We’ve gotten some good work in,” he said. “Obviously still a work in progress, but I like the way these kids have worked these last couple of days.” With the team not playing until Oct. 5 against Illinois, Pelini said he knows there’s a lot this 3-1 Huskers squad can work on. “We can get a lot accomplished,” he said. “Every day we

What we’re struggling with mostly defensively is taking the things from our individual and group work and bringing it back to the team setting. “I saw a jump today but that needs to continue.” Defensive coordinator John Papuchis agreed and said he plans to take advantage of these two weeks off. “It’s going to allow us to take baby steps,” he said. “Allow us to get into the defenses we need to get in and be successful the next two weeks.”

ENUNWA PROVIDING SPARK

If there’s one player that’s caught the eye of wide receivers coach Rich Fisher, it’s No. 18 on offense.

When asked who’s been a constant for Nebraska offense so far this season, Fisher answered, “I think the emergence of a guy like Quincy (Enunwa). Just his playmaking ability on the perimeter. Making big plays, making tough catches.” Through the team’s first four games of the season, Enunwa leads all Husker wide receivers with 202 receiving yards and is averaging 11.9 yards per catch. The senior ’s five touchdowns have also nearly doubled his previous career total of three. The performances haven’t been a surprise to Fisher, who said he expects Enunwa only to progress as the season continues. “We’re putting him in position to succeed, and he’s taking advantage of the opportunity,” Fisher said. “I wouldn’t say I’m surprised at all. I’ve seen that play making ability out of him for a couple of years.”

Nebraska showed that on Sunday when it beat Denver to notch a victory against a ranked opponent for the first time since 2011. A home crowd of 636 – the Huskers’ largest since a 2011 game against third-ranked North Carolina – helped boost the team’s energy, Stevens said. “I guess if the fans are coming out because they see us doing well, then we’re going to feel the support from that,” she said. The Huskers play this weekend at Northwestern and Illinois – two opponents that stand directly in the way of Nebraska reaching the goal it reiterates every day after practice. “I think we are at the highest momentum we have had all season,” Johnson said. “We won our first game in the Big Ten. We beat No. 14-ranked Denver. We were 20th in the polls. We just have every reason in the world to just keep building and keep getting more momentum. Keep going and going to get our goal.” sports@ dailynebraskan.com

Volleyball: from 12 fifth set of the match and hindered the chances of the Huskers winning. On the year, the Huskers have totaled 35 aces and 71 service errors. The team is averaging 1.09 aces per set, which is ranked No. 239 in Division 1 volleyball, according to NCAA.com. According to Cook, these errors are coming from inexperience and they will improve. “We have a lot of freshman serving, and they are going to make errors,” Cook said. “We are trying to push the envelope to serve tough, so we’re living on the edge there.” The players and the coach have said it plenty of times this season: The serve can be a big momentum shift for the team. With the No. 1 recruiting class, some of the younger players have taken bigger roles when it comes to serving. Freshmen Alexa Ethridge and Brenna Lyles have stepped up in this role. Combined, the two have totaled 10 aces and nine service errors. “I come in there, and they say

I have a lot of energy,” Ethridge said. “Even if it’s just a couple points, hopefully I can get the momentum going and get a couple points.” Ethridge attributes the difficulties opposing teams have against her serve to the type of serve she has. “I have a different kind of serve that probably most people have never seen,” Ethridge said. “It’s called ‘Tempo 2’ serve. It’s a hard serve, but I think people just haven’t seen it, so it kind of takes them off guard a little bit.” Ethridge also said she learned the Tempo 2 serve when she arrived at Nebraska, and it was the

first thing the coaches had her working on. One of the captains brings another type of serve to the mix. Senior Kelsey Robinson, who leads the Huskers this season with nine aces and 20 errors, can deliver the jump serve, but she had not used it this year until the game at Texas. “We just wanted to pace her up until we got to conference,” Cook said. The senior showcased this ability in the spring season, earning 7 aces and 10 errors in the four game mini-season. sports@ dailynebraskan.com

enunwa: from 12 “No athlete works harder than me,” Mayweather once said. Mayweather, 45-0 as a professional boxer, stands a half-foot shorter than the Husker wide out at 5 feet 8 inches, and he is known for his confidence, which has been mirrored in Enunwa’s attitude closely this season. The time and work Enunwa put into the offseason didn’t go unnoticed either, as coach Bo Pelini named Enunwa as one of four season-long captains, along with four-year starting quarterback Taylor Martinez, defensive back Ciante Evans and offensive lineman Spencer Long. “It definitely helped me out this year, like I said, a confidence boost by becoming a captain; knowing that guys are looking up to me, guys know that I’ve been doing well,” Enunwa said. He, in turn, caught the eye of his teammates throughout fall camp, including Martinez. “I think a lot of people are really going to be shocked with how Quincy does this season,” Martinez said before the season. “He is going to be really good this season.”

Tom Blackwell is a three-time letter winner for Nebraska and an NCAA Team Champions competitor, and he was 16-14 playing No. 3,4,5 and 6 singles last season.

Two letter-winning seniors lead men’s tennis team Pair of seniors motivates team with experience and hard work on the court and in classroom Sydny Boyd DN This season, the Huskers men’s tennis team has 13 players – and only two of them are seniors. Tom Blackwell and Brandon Videtich have been productive members of the team since they were freshmen at Nebraska. “Both men have improved a ton while being in this program,” coach Kerry McDermott said. Last season, Blackwell recorded a 16-14 overall singles record at the No. 3, 4, 5 and 6 singles spots last season. And he works just as hard in the classroom as he does on the court. “He has lettered throughout the years because he has represented Nebraska with respect on and off the court with hard work and commitment,” McDermott said. He is a three-time letter winner and an NCAA Team Champions Competitor, and he earned recognition on the Nebraska ScholarAthlete Honor Roll and the Big 12 Commissioner’s Spring Honor Roll. “It took a lot of hard work and dedication to get there,” said Blackwell. “It’s important to work hard on the court, but in the classroom too.” Videtich said Blackwell is one of the hardest working players he has ever seen on the team. “Tom is a really good competitor, ever since he was a freshman, and he’s been one of the toughest guys out there,” Videtich said. McDermott has high expectations for his two seniors, “They need to be the mother goose leading the baby ducklings out into the world,” he said. “These guys must give good advice and use their experience to help their younger teammates learn what college tennis is all about and what it means to wear the ‘N’ on their uniforms.” Videtich has played on the team for six years because he was a redshirt freshman his first season and took a medical redshirt in 2011-12. During the 2012-13 season, Videtich earned a 13-18 doubles record and a 5-3 singles record. “Brandon has made a huge jump in his game, especially towards the end of last year,” McDermott said. “He realizes that his serve and volley game have a big effect on his opponents.” Videtich is optimistic for the team this season and knows he is thought of as a leader. “I’d love to see us win a round or two, maybe three rounds and get to the semi-finals for the Big Ten,” Videtich said. “I think it’s a realistic goal. We have a lot of talent and I know we can do it.”

Videtich is an Academic AllBig Ten, a four-time letter winner. He also earned recognition on the Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll, as well as the Big 12 Commissioner’s Honor Roll. “It means a lot to me as a coach that Brandon was an Academic AllBig Ten,” McDermott said. “Getting an education is the most important aspect of college tennis and if tennis can take a player to a higher level professionally, then that is a bonus. I’m proud of him.” Being team captain last season provided Videtich with responsibility and made him a role model for his teammates. He carries that with himself through this season. “I pride myself on my leader-

ship skills,” Videtich said. “I see myself as someone for the guys to look up to and count on and to keep practices going smoothly and get everyone pretty motivated.” McDermott agrees that both Blackwell and Videtich are leaders and great assets to the program this season. “My hopes for the season are, for both of these guys, to not get injured,” McDermott said. “Both continue to improve as they finish their careers here at Nebraska and they continue to be good examples.” sports@ dailynebraskan.com

Swimming team begins season with intrasquad

Senior wide receiver Quincy Enunwa has caught five touchdowns this season, nearly doubling his career total entering 2013. Enunwa was named a team captain before the season for a newfound work ethic comparable to that of boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Punch For Punch

Enunwa takes on mentality of boxer to work harder and achieve better results.

uincy Enunwa strolled into a weight room full of reporters, whistling lightly, Q holding a sense of calmness.

He had just grabbed a team-high six catches for 78 yards, helping Nebraska to a 59-20 win against South Dakota State and to a record-breaking performance by the Nebraska offense. The Blackshirts recorded 300 yards of passing and rushing each for the first time in program history. As Enunwa neared the lectern, bags of ice strapped firmly to the top of his shins and knees, He’s a the 6-foot-2-inch receiver full-grown joked about taking the interview while throwing punchman. He’s a good es on a boxing bag that hung in the back of the room. football player.” The Husker captain reached the microphone and fielded questions as he Bo Pelini rocked back and forth with football coach the lectern. One reporter asked what he attributes to giving him more success this year on the field. “I think I just kind of took this offseason and told myself that nobody is going to work harder than me,” Enunwa answered. That sounds dangerously familiar to a quote from one of the biggest boxing icons, Floyd Mayweather Jr.
