Waiting On Mail Carrier Some Students Depend On Financial Aid Refund Checks By Kristin Webb Managing Editor • Kwebb4@nwacc.edu

Although the Àrst day of class was Jan. 14, students at NorthWest Arkansas Community College began receiving their Ànancial aid refund checks around the Àrst week of February. Some students did not receive their checks until the second week. Waiting for funds to arrive can be taxing for some students. Reagan Burns, a journalism major at NWACC, said she became very frustrated with the refund process this semester. Burns said she had a Àne and her account was on hold. She was dropped from class without notice on the same day she paid the Àne because her funds were waiting for her to “accept” them. “I signed up for classes and waited on Ànancial aid to go through,” she said. “I didn’t realize I had a hold on my account but when I did Ànd out and paid the Àne, that same day I was dropped from all my classes for failure to pay even though the money was pending. I assumed I would have more time when I got the hold released and the money was pending and they didn’t notify me that it was going to be an issue. I actually found out I had been dropped from my teachers.”

She said she was forced to get an override and re-enroll in her classes, but had to spend several days going from ofÀce to ofÀce to get this straightened out. She said she wasn’t able to get her books until after the refund check arrived, noting it was very difÀcult to deal with her teachers who expected her to have her textbooks. She also had to accept assistance from her family members to help her cover her expenses relating to attendance. Nicholas Hall, a freshman music major, said the delay in receiving refund checks put a strain on his budget. Hall noted that when he accepted his aid, he understood it would be to pay for his tuition and books with the remainder helping to cover other

expenses including food, gas and other personal items relating to attending college. “I am a new student here and had to borrow money for books and supplies,” he said. “I’ve been fortunate to have family to help me cover my transportation and food costs as well as other expenses in attending NWACC. It was literally a matter of waiting every single day for the mail to run and crossing my Àngers that my check would be in the mailbox that morning but being disappointed day after day while I waited on it to arrive. My Àancé (who also attends NWACC) and I got a little sick of eating Ramen noodles and we literally cut out See CHECKS on page 12

Students Participate In Movement By Cyndi Beltran Staff Writer • cbeltran1@nwacc.edu

The DREAM is close. After a decisive election for many demographic groups in the United States, the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act, Àrst introduced to the Senate in 2001, is closer than ever. The movement is not unknown within NWACC walls, where students have formed organizations to Àght for immigrants’ rights. The need for

a national and a state dream act are undeniable, but what exactly would a state DREAM Act do? Currently, undocumented students in Arkansas who have lived almost their entire lives in the United States and grew up seeing this state as their home are paying more than double for a college education. Although they are residing in the state of Arkansas and have graduated from Arkansas high See ACT on page 4

Can’t Remain Silent

’ve seen enough domestic violence in the media lately, where I’m at the point in which I cannot remain silent on the topic. My tipping point was when news broke Feb. 14 that Oscar Pistorius, the double amputee Olympic sprinter from South Africa, was arrested and charged with premeditated murder of his girlfriend, South African model Reeva Steenkamp. In the judicial system, a suspect is innocent until proven guilty, but it will take a lot for me to believe Pistorius’s defense that he jumped out of bed onto his stumps with his 9mm, and mistook his girlfriend for a robber, and Àred off shots into a closed bathroom door. I didn’t know robbers locked themselves in bathrooms to steal soap and shampoo. The sad thing about this story is that Steenkamp was active in campaigning against

domestic violence. The day that she died, she was to give a speech at a high school about domestic abuse. The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence states that one in every four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime, and that 85 percent of domestic violence victims are women. According to the Arkansas Crime Information Center, there were 106 rape cases and 454 aggravated assault cases reported in Benton County in 2011. Washington County reported 84 rape cases and 459 aggravated assault cases during the same year. Those numbers are scary and, quite frankly, embarrassing. Real men do not put their hands on women to harm them. Period. Our hands are meant to demonstrate the love and affection towards our helpmates female counterparts. Women are the ones who give

life and nurture our world. Why would someone want to bring violence toward them? If you are a woman (or a man… yes, domestic violence isn’t always against women) in an abusive relationship, I strongly urge you to seek help. No matter how bad things might be for you, there is always help. No one should have to experience abuse, whether physical or verbal, and no one should feel like they are at fault for being physically abused. With the Violence Against Women Act awaiting President Barack Obama’s signature, we are taking a step in the right direction to Àght this important issue. • Northwest Arkansas Women’s Shelter 479-246-9999 • 24 Hour Crisis Line 1-800-775-9011 • The National Domestic Violence Hotline 1-800-799-7233

Guns Not The Problem G

uns are not the problem, it’s people. The Sandy Hook tragedy has forced Americans to examine the Second Amendment, the right to bear arms. Our government has made some strides to make changes to keep us safe, but the question lingering in my mind is, “What is the problem? Guns or people?” Anything in moderation can be used as a weapon – a gun, a knife, a pencil, a fork, or something you would never think of, like an electric guitar. It’s true. Danny Kirk, Jr., a pastor in north Texas, was beaten to death when an individual rammed his car into the church, and chased him down with an electric guitar and beat him to death. So what is the government going to do to prevent something like that from happening? Stop selling guitars? Someone somewhere will think of something else

to use as a weapon. So, what can we do? Paying better attention to one’s children may be a good place to start. Take the two suspects in the Columbine Massacre, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. For days leading up to the shooting, the two kept a journal detailing not only how they were going to carry out the attack, but they also wrote how they were feeling up to that point. They were both fed up with the world and appeared to be suffering from depression, as well as other mental issues. Their parents were aware of the two getting into trouble with authorities, but they were unaware of what was really going on inside their minds. Had they have known, one can only wonder how different the result could have been. — Josh Farmer, Staff Writer jfarmer4@nwacc.edu

schools, a broken system requires them to pay out of state charges with no exceptions. The Postsecondary Education and Economic Development Act of 2013, or state DREAM Act, to be introduced by Democratic senator Joyce Elliot in the Arkansas legislature would allow these students to pay tuition according to their place of residence. The Àght has caused a whole youth movement to awaken, and NWACC student Erick Sanchez is also taking part in it. Sanchez traveled to Washington D.C. in early February to attend immigration forums, hear the plans of the “gang of eight” and communicate with legislators about the need for a DREAM Act to Ànally put an end to the nightmare of living in the shadows as an undocumented child and college student. Many DREAMers from all cross the United States attended the events sponsored by United We Dream, one of the national groups behind DREAM Act support and leadership. “The experience was very intense, but also very rewarding,” Sanchez recalls. “I learned so much that will help me focus on the DREAMers of NWACC.” For a couple of days, Sanchez had a very busy agenda. “We would wake up at 7 a.m. to get ready, and the training sessions started at 8:45 a.m. and went on until noon for lunch,” he said. “We came back at 1:30 p.m. for more training until 6 p.m., and then we had dinner. Training lasted until 8 p.m., or sometimes 9 p.m.” The DREAMers also had a day to speak with representatives about their needs, their dreams and their hopes for this immigration momentum. “The DREAM Act means to me an opportunity to make a difference in this world, as well as achieve my full potential and

goals that I have in the future,” said Sanchez about the meaning of the DREAM Act in his own life. The Àght for a DREAM Act is not exclusive to DREAMers, but to everyone around them who has noticed the need for an opportunity for these young leaders and future professionals. NWACC has formed a group called “DREAMers of NWACC,” or “DREAM Club,” in which students meet to speak about the progress of the DREAM Act, the prospects for the future and to volunteer in the community. The group is sponsored by Outreach Coordinator Codie Ryan, and meets every other Tuesday at 3 p.m. In our area, two major groups work to make the DREAM Act a reality in Arkansas. Arkansas United Coalition for the DREAM (AC4D) takes part in activism and brings light to the need for action in the state. Irvin Camacho is heavily involved in the Àght for the DREAM Act. Although the legislation would not beneÀt him

directly, Camacho feels the need to solve the problems of a broken immigration system. “I Àght for immigration reform because I’ve personally seen the struggle,” he said. “My best friends struggle with things like not being able to Ànd a good job or have in-state tuition because they are undocumented. I Àght because it’s the right thing to do.” Camacho’s Àght has not just recently started; it has been going on for years. He used to be a part of the “Natural Dreamers,” which was the Àrst Dream Act group in Arkansas. Camacho, Juan Mendez and Fernando Garcia, went to DeQueen, Ark., and met up with Rosa Velasquez and Anahi Esteban there. “They knew about the movement and we explained what we were doing over here and they were interested. Rosa created the group AC4D in DeQueen, and we in northwest Arkansas started an AC4D chapter, and we made the name known throughout the state.” Just recently, community leader Mireya Reith from Arkansas United Community Coalition

created the iDREAM campaign, and named Irvin Camacho the chairman. The group seeks to make the stories of Arkansas DREAMers known, to end ignorance and prejudice against the immigrant population and to bring a solution to a broken system that has separated families and brought struggles to the undocumented children growing up in our state. iDREAM hopes to set the mood for a positive outcome of the state DREAM Act that will be introduced in the senate by the end of February. “Mireya Reith has such a brilliant mind for politics. And this is a plan of reaching out to representatives and spamming the media with undeniable stories will take us to the Ànish line,” said Camacho. Camacho is also developing a documentary called “iDREAM” about undocumented students who struggle to get an education, and are not able to explain their shortcomings to those around them. A sneak peek has already been released and can be found on their Facebook pages.

The Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation published an in-depth analysis of the immigrant population in Arkansas. An interesting Ànding is that immigrants generated $7 in business revenue and tax contributions for every $1 the state spent on services to immigrant households, which went directly to their children. Immigrants in Arkansas contribute much more to the state’s economy than they take in. Arkansas ranks fourth in national immigrant population growth. The three volume report can be found in the foundation’s website: wrfoundation.org. What these groups want the population to keep from their efforts is to recognize that a state DREAM Act would beneÀt all of Arkansas’ population. For many, it is simply “the right thing to do.” State legislators can be contacted to express support for the state DREAM Act in these moments in which it is needed. Among all the efforts and the national attention, the DREAM seems closer than ever before.

Library Has New St. Patrick’s Research Database Day Events Set By Jamie Israel

By Justin Shreve Staff Writer • jshreve@nwacc.edu

The NWACC library has developed a new research database, exclusive to students and staff, that was released early 2013. The databases and research materials are found within the website which is now “[...] more conveniently laid out for students and faculty,” says Joel Tonyan, Emerging Technologies Librarian in the NWACC Library. As the library holds thousands of books, newspapers and multi-media, it is limited due to space. Therefore, the addition to easily accessible and vast research material is a must. Now the database can be accessed through the library’s website by clicking Current Students from the home page,

for The Women in the Student Center at NWACC in room 108B, Friday, April 5th, from 7 to 9pm and Saturday, April 6th, from 12 to 2pm Written by Clare Boothe Luce and Directed by Kathy Forbes There are over 40 female characters in this play. Each of the 15 person all female cast will have the opportunity to play multiple roles that range from 8 to 80 years of age in a modiﬁed scripted reading format. The original Broadway production, directed by Robert B. Sinclair, opened on December 26, 1936 at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, where it ran for over 600 performances with an all-female cast that included Arlene Francis, Ilka Chase, and Marjorie Main. A ﬁlm followed in 1939 starring Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, Norma Shearer, Joan Fontaine and other notable actresses of the time. The play is a hilarious yet sometimes touching commentary on the pampered lives and power struggles of various wealthy socialites and social climbers and the gossip that propels and damages their relationships. Though men are frequently the subject of their lively discussions and play an important role in the action on-stage, they are strictly characters mentioned but never seen.

The Honors Corner Honors societies, honors clubs, honors programsâ&#x20AC;Śit can all be a little confusing. NWACC offers several different honors societies and clubs that students can join including, the NSLS, SKD, GBP, PTK, and others. They all have their perks and emphases. While it comes with its own perks, too, the Honors Program is different. The NWACC Honors Program is an academic program that offers classes. There are no dues or membership fees to join; you just need to meet GPA requirements, which is a requirement for most of the other honors societies as well. While you have to pay tuition to take an honors class, you do not have to pay extra. All classes offered in honors, except for the Honors Seminar, are transferable just like their regular class equivalents. Anyone who excels in a particular area may sign up for an honors course in that subject. While the classes are open to anyone, being a program

member has its beneĂ&#x20AC;ts. In the last issue of the Honors Corner, we identiĂ&#x20AC;ed some of those: a study lounge, scholarships and travel opportunities. The Honors Program is also different from societies in that it offers events for the community and the entire NWACC campus. In conjunction with the program-sponsored themed semester on the Marshall Islands, events such as the Bikini Atoll Commemoration Day, which was held Feb.28, brought in members of the Marshallese community to remember the victims of nuclear testing on their home islands or atolls. Events like these are learning opportunities for everyone to understand and foster appreciation of cultural differences. Northwest Arkansas is a diverse region and NWACC is a diverse campus. The Honors Program requires that students take six hours of Core Courses that focus on global themes, like World Civilization, World Religions, World Literature, and Philosophy.

College Hosts Remembrance Day By Keith Kiger Staff Writer@dkiger@nwacc.edu

Victims of the U.S. atomic bomb tests in the Marshall Islands were remembered and their surviving families were honored at NorthWest Arkansas Community College Feb. 28. The afternoon event featured presentations by Jessica Schwartz, Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow at Columbia University, and by Carmen ChongGum, consul general of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, as well as songs, food, and a candlelight observance. April Brown, director of the honors program at NWACC, introduced the program: “If we gloss over events which we deem too unpleasant or too complicated to dissect, we do ourselves a disservice.” The Marshall Islands are located in the Pacific Ocean about halfway between Hawaii and Australia and include 29 coral atolls, thousands of tiny islets and hundreds of small, low-lying islands, according to worldatlas. com. From 1946 to 1958, the U.S. conducted 68 nuclear tests on them, which directly affected Enewetak and Bikini Atolls, and rained radioactive fallout on the Ronglap and Utrik Atolls and other atolls and islands. The February event at NWACC specifically commemorated the Castle Bravo test conducted on March 1, 1954 and the victims of that test. The Castle Bravo bomb remains the largest-yield bomb the U.S. has ever detonated. The 15 megaton-yield bomb vaporized three islands and scattered fallout over nearly half of the Marshall Islands. The children played in the radioactive fallout thinking it was snow. Women rubbed the radioactive material in their hair. Ninety percent of the children who were age 12 and under at the

time of the test developed thyroid cancer later in life. ChongGum read a message from Christopher Jorebon Loeak, president of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Loeak said March 1 is a Marshall Islands’ holiday to commemorate the victims of the atomic bomb blast. Loeak urged for the Marshallese people to call on the United States government to “correct the past mistakes brought upon them and their lands from the testing programs.” Loeak also called on the United States to release classified documents that pertain to the testing so that Marshallese can move past the tests. Schwartz presented a talk entitled “That Is the Reason I Wrote This Song.” She chronicled how Marshallese people have commemorated and spoken of the nuclear testing through their music. Schwartz also talked about the three silences related to these nuclear tests: metaphorical, regulatory, and actual. Metaphorical silence refers to the symbolic loss of speech suffered by closed mouths. Regulatory silence refers to the censorship of speech brought on in the era of these atomic tests. Actual silence refers to the loss of voice suffered by many victims due to thyroid cancer. Schwartz said, “When one voice is muted or silenced, destabilized, we all become deaf.” Schwartz spoke of the throat as the seat of emotions in Marshallese culture. She said that the loss of singing voices of many of the women was equal to a loss of freedom for them. Schwartz fielded questions following her presentation. Mike French, an attendee from the community, challenged Schwartz’s interpretation of the time period. French said it almost sounded like Schwartz was denigrating the work done then to keep

people in the U.S. safe. He said, “We were scared to death.” French recalled hearing an ambulance siren get stuck when he was a child. French said that everyone panicked when it happened thinking they were under attack. He said he thought her “attitude on that was ignorant.” Schwartz countered by saying she respects all that was done then. She said she is aware of the problems experienced by Americans during this time period as well. Schwartz said she used the examples to show the context of the nuclear culture at the time. Community member Roiselle Grim lived in the Marshall Islands for a combined five years in the 1960s when her husband was working as an engineer there. Grim said during that time, long-term illnesses caused by radiation poisoning began to appear. ChongGum said there are around 400 Marshallese people living in northwest Arkansas who have been directly affected by the nuclear tests. Marshallese

people were relocated to several mainland locations, and Springdale, Ark., is one. She said it is likely the radioactive fallout contaminated 10 islands in the Marshall Islands. She pointed to the Changed Circumstances Petition before the U.S. Congress as a way for the voter to get involved in changing policy toward the Marshall Islands. ChongGum pointed to the younger generation of Marshallese as key to the future: “Our elders are dying.

It will really be up to them to explore possibilities for growth and giving back [to the Marshall Islands].” NWACC student and Pacific Islanders Club member Leslie Adair did a service-learning project on the Marshallese and learned the really young Marshallese do not know the effects of the atomic testing. Adair said she thinks a commemoration like this helps educate the younger generation.

Interns Needed For Film “Greater” By Syndi J. Yeakley Staff Writer @ syeakley@nwacc.edu

Burlsworth

An independent feature Screen Actors Guild Àlm, “’Greater,” about the life of Brandon Burlsworth is seeking NWACC students for pre-production and production interns. Razorback fans remember the story of Burlsworth, a driven young man and obsessively dedicated athlete who made a name for himself both on and off the football Àeld. He was just 23 when his life was cut short in a car accident

near his hometown of Harrison, just 11 days after being drafted by the Indianapolis Colts. Film writer and Producer Brian Reindl said the idea to do the Àlm about Burlsworth “was right after he (Burlsworth) died, it just hit me. Someone needs to make this movie.” This Àlm is being shot in Arkansas during April, May and June. It is requested that internship candidates be committed, organized, and self-motivated individuals that are eager to learn more about the art of Àlm.

On Feb. 15, NWACC internship hopefuls were introduced to Reindl, Director David Hunt, and Internship Coordinator Jason Suel. NWACC student and theater major, Jocelyn Wolf, when asked what she would look forward to getting out of this internship said, “Knowledge and experience to help expand on my acting career.” While another student, Christopher Marrin, expressed his excitement, “to work on any Àlm-related project,” he said he does his own Àlm directing and

has experience with most aspects of Àlm making and he would, “like to be a part of history.” Reindl expressed that he is thankful for those students who made it to the meeting, but indicated he would like to have even more student involvement. When asked what other NWACC students could do to help, Reindl replied, “Get involved.” Students who have questions, or are wishing to get involved with this opportunity should contact Jason Suel at jasonsuel@ gmail.com for more information.

Next Jam Night Set For April 5, Need More Student Participants By Syndi J. Yeakley Staff Writer @ syeakley@nwacc.edu

It was a chilly night standing in front of Gusano’s Pizzeria on Feb 15 and approaching the door patrons were enveloped by the smell of warm food — the kind of smell that makes you hungry even if you weren’t. As you opened the door the hum of a multitude of voices and a smiling young staffer happily greeted you. The host informed you of the waiting time, but you were here to enjoy the entertainment so the time is not a bother. Besides you could stand and still get some of that delicious food or a cold beer if you liked. It was about then that you heard it, the thump of a drum, and it was joined quickly by the bass, guitar, and vocals. This was as welcome to you as the smell of food when you Àrst arrived. The sound drew you to the back room where you found its source. You knew the song and found your heart picked up, a smile stretched across your lips,

“The music is fabulous. It should be a monthly or even a weekly event.” — Sarah Elsner, student and perhaps you even sang along too. This was the NWACC Jam Night. On stage, the NWACC house band rocked out some familiar tunes. On the bass was Marc Turner the lead NWACC instructor organizing the event. On guitar was fellow instructor Ben Harris, Richard Goodrum worked the drums, and Ocie Fisher laid on the vocals. Around the room you saw people at every table joining in singing, dancing, or smiling. The mood was contagious and the feeling was so nice you didn’t mind if you sang off key or couldn’t really dance because the whole place is having such a good time. Also taking to the stage was NWACC instructor Allyssa Riley, Instructor Eric Vest sat in

on drums for two songs, a local group called L Street Band rocked the crowd, and 17 year old Emily Seaman did an amazing acoustic set too. Seaman says she plans on going to NWACC after she graduates high school and she wants to keep doing the Jam Night. “What’s important is that we get some student interest,” Turner said. “Although it’s open to everybody, the more student interest there is the more credibility is going to be given to it as a function of NWACC.” Turner also spoke about the opportunity events like this provide to musicians, both students and non-students, to network which could lead to future performances. “The music is fabulous,” student Sarah Elsner said. “It should be a monthly or even a weekly

event.” When asked if she would ever like to go up to sing she smiled widely and indicated she would not like performing. Student Magdalena Null noted, “I would come to another one. I prefer this style [of music].” Turner said if you did not make it to this Jam Night you will have another opportunity at 6 p.m. on Friday, April 5, at Gusano’s in

Bentonville. Again Turner and the house band want to remind everyone that they will play back up if you want to sing, you can use their equipment if needed, or bring your band to the stage. NWACC students are encouraged to perform and to attend. Contact Marc Turner at mturner1@nwacc.edu to be a part of the next Jam Night.

According to Dr. Meredith Brunen, executive director of the foundation, Thrasher is “a true servant leader.” He has been an active member of the NWACC Foundation Board of Director and served as Board Chair for eight years. Under his leadership, Brunen noted the Foundation successfully completed a $16 million capital campaign, as well as provided innovating funding solutions for other college projects that have received national recognition. Thrasher and his wife, Linda, are founding members of the newly formed Post Oak Society which recognizes those who have left a legacy gift to beneÀt future generations of NWACC students. He has also been involved in numerous community events and causes.

Paneitz has established four learning centers in the college’s service area to address the needs of the communities served by the college. She was instrumental in developing the college’s Àve-year strategic plan in 2004, having become the second president of the college in August 2003. She is also being honored for her contribution to the arts and the college at 2 p.m. on March 11 in the Shewmaker Center for Workforce Technologies, Walmart Auditorium on the main NWACC campus.

Volleyball Player Hopes To Join Micronesian Olympic Team By Keith Kiger Staff Writer@dkiger@nwacc.edu

NorthWest Arkansas Community College club volleyball may have a player connection to the Micronesian Olympic team soon. Jeffrey Laupepa hopes to make that a reality. Laupepa was a student at NWACC until Ànancial troubles caused him to drop out. Laupepa is trying to save money so he can return to school. Laupepa said he has loved volleyball as long as he can remember. In his native Marshall Islands, volleyball is a popular sport. “I remember always watching my sisters and other fellow family members playing

“He is the captain of the team. His skills as a volleyball player and his enthusiasm ignite the whole team.” in the tournaments and leagues that were held in the Marshall Islands,” he said. Laupepa played volleyball for the fun of it until his friend and then-fellow NWACC student Kevin Harkey encouraged him to try out for the NWACC volleyball team. Laupepa then contacted coach Hal Roberts to join the team. Laupepa said playing for the

NWACC team has been beneÀcial. He added Roberts “honestly focuses carefully and deeply on the improvement of his players skills.” The competition has also helped Laupepa. “We play against a variety of different teams that also carry plenty of very talented players, which also helps me to push myself to improve on my skills.” According to Roberts,

Laupepa plays an important leadership role for the volleyball team. “He is the captain of the team,” Roberts noted. “His skills as a volleyball player and his enthusiasm ignite the whole team.” Laupepa said competing at NWACC helps him in the process of trying out for the Micronesian teams. The process to try out for a Micronesian Olympic team begins with submitting a video of the athlete playing. He said he plans to submit his video to the athletics board in Guam, Palua, Pohnpei and Chuuk to get an opportunity to play for one of them. If they are interested, they will then contact him to set up the rest of the process.

their website. In January, monies were actually posted to student accounts on Jan. 10 and checks were mailed within three business days. Classes began on Jan. 14. Cordell said there are several reasons behind the delay in issuing refund checks. “When a school disburses money before classes, they’re using their own funds,” she said. “NWACC isn’t in the position to do this – we just don’t have $15 million worth of extra funds.” In addition, Cordell said there is a big risk to the college to pay this money out in advance of the drop date. If the money is paid out prior to this deadline, a student can get their funds and then drop their classes. The college is then left responsible for those funds and must attempt to collect the money from the student, a task that she said can be extremely difÀcult. “When the drop date is over [Jan. 29, 2013], we see who is enrolled and who added classes or withdrew from their classes,” she said. “At this point, money

paid out to students who drop after this deadline is owed back to the Department of Education instead of NWACC.” Cordell said that many years ago, the college did try to pay students earlier but the default rate was a major issue. “The default rate for NWACC is over 20 percent,” she said. “Many other two and four year colleges and universities have admission requirements but NWACC is an open campus. Our students are Áuid and they come and go. Students who attend larger schools such as the University of Arkansas have more access to scholarships and grants while we’re quite a bit more limited on NWACC awards.” This past fall, Cordell said the college created a default management team and is working on a plan to try to look into ways to manage and improve student defaults. Furthermore, Cordell said freshmen students can expect a 30-day delay in receiving their Àrst refund check. She said this is

because studies show that when students drop out, they tend to do so in the Àrst 30 days of class. A part of the delay in issuing the funds is every single refund is manually processed by the Cashier’s OfÀce, Cordell said. “We don’t do this via software, so a human literally sits down and goes over each account individually,” Cordell noted. “Yes, the technology is out there for us to be able to do this automatically but it’s still being done by hand at NWACC.” She said there was discussion at some point in regard to potentially using direct deposit as a method for speeding up refunds and cutting postage expenses but she wasn’t sure where the campus is on that at this time. Faculty is paid via direct deposit but student checks are mailed to their address on Àle. Cordell also said a delay occurred this semester because the campus bookstore Barnes & Noble did not get the charge records in when they were supposed to. She said when she

— Hal Roberts, coach

Roberts said that Laupepa “is and will be one of the most exceptional young men I have coached in 20 years of coaching.” Roberts said he looks forward to watching Laupepa represent his native land and NWACC at the Olympics. The NWACC volleyball team practices Tuesdays and Fridays from 4 to 7 p.m. at the All Star Sports Arena in Springdale. The team plays on Thursdays beginning at 6:30 p.m. Games are also at the All Star Sports Arena and spectators are welcome.

contacted the manager at the campus store, the manager then contacted corporate to get this expedited. Students have a choice at the beginning of the year to charge their books and supplies to their account. A limit is set each semester for students and this money is set aside for this purpose. When the deadline for using this money on campus is passed, the bookstore relays the actual charges back to the cashier’s ofÀce so that the appropriate amount can be charged and any unused portion of the funds is then credited to the student’s account. Students who do not use this method can also choose to write a post-dated check to one of the used bookstores and those checks are run through the student’s bank once funds are posted. Melissa Cuquet, Director of Accounting Services at NWACC, refused comment citing she needed to go through the public relations department but clearance wasn’t received prior to news deadline.

all extras in our budget just to survive until the check came. When it did arrive, it was a very good day for us!” According to Michelle Cordell, Director of Financial Aid, the Ànancial aid ofÀce sent the funds to the cashier’s ofÀce at the earliest date allowed, but because the college still manually processes all Ànancial aid refunds and requires student refunds to be sent via mail, the payments are delayed up to 10 business days before students can receive their money. For some students, this delay can be very stressful and for some, the difference between attending school or having to drop because of not being able to meet the payment plan deadline. Other colleges and universities typically release Ànancial aid refunds to students prior to the Àrst day of class. The University of Arkansas at Fayetteville typically releases aid to students before the Àrst day of class, according to

Oscar Likes War-Themed Movies Gems

Gerry’s

Firstly I would call your attention to the picture to the right. This is my “gem,” Elisha, my granddaughter. She is much easier on the eye than my old face! Keeping in the Oscars theme, I thought I recount a few past winners of Best Picture for your consideration. Oddly, by accident, all of the movies picked are set in wars. Each of these great Àlms explores human nature and how our psyches deal with the stresses from such terrible circumstances. They show how we can rise above the turmoil or become irrevocably lost in our minds. The Best Picture of 1962 was “Lawrence of Arabia,” directed by David Lean from Columbia Pictures. This epic Àlm stars Peter O’Toole, Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn and Omar Sharif

Gerry Weatherford gweather@nwacc.edu

and is based on the life of T.E. Lawrence during the First World War in Arabia. Made before the art of CGI, this Àlm is magniÀcent for its cinematography and its stirring story. This movie also shares the recognition of one of the all-time best Àlms, ranking in the top ten. The 51st Academy Awards chose “The Deer Hunter,” directed by Michael Cimino, from Universal Pictures. This

gripping drama stars Robert DeNiro, Christopher Walken, John Savage and Meryl Streep. It tells the story of a group of working class blue collar

Russian-American steel workers from Pennsylvania who enlist in the Army during the Vietnam war. Both critics, Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert, have this Àlm at number three on their top ten list, and describe it as “one of the most emotionally shattering Àlms ever made” and “a big Àlm, dealing with big issues” respectively. In 1993 the winner of Best Picture went to “Schindler’s List,” directed by Steven Spielberg, from Universal Pictures and starring Liam Neeson. This Àlm tells the story of how Schindler, a German businessman, saved over one thousand mostly PolishJewish refugees from the horrors of the Holocaust. Shot in black and white it is a powerful and emotionally moving Àlm. It is regarded as one of the best Àlms ever made, period.

It is being re-released for its twentieth anniversary. “The English Patient” from Miramax Films won the Oscar in 1996. This romantic drama directed by Anthony Minghella stars Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe and Kristin Scott Thomas. Set before and during WWII, the plot unfolds in a series of Áashbacks. The Àlm begins with the badly burned patient being treated in a remote hospital. We slowly learn his mysterious history and how he came to be here. This Àlm also won Oscars for Actress in a Supporting Role, Cinematography, Director, Editing, Sound, Costume Design, and for Original Score. It is truly a cinematic masterpiece and very enjoyable movie.

Musicians Find Exposure Via Website Blog By Shawna Rohr Special to the Eagle View

Hip-hop music has given its fans words to relate to, a beat to move to, and the spirit to speak out for change. Many would argue that hip-hop is nothing but sex, violence, and vulgarity, but if they took the time to look past the “Baby Got Back’s” they may Ànd the opportunity to enjoy a powerful message backed up by a sick beat. In March 2011, then 16-yearold Nora Hassan founded College-of-Music.com, a blog dedicated to promoting up-andcoming hip-hop artists. COM showcased new releases of singles, music videos, and really anything else that related to the underground hip-hop world, with its mission statement being “No Artist Left Behind.” Then in August of that year

the girlfriend of Ben Haggerty (a.k.a. Macklemore) reached out to Nora about his music. Nora had been following Macklemore since 2008, so she was more than happy to help promote this underground artist. Recently though, the duo of Macklemore and producer Ryan Lewis are anything but underground. As their single “Thrift Shop” sweeps the nation, Macklemore and Lewis have been thrust into the spotlight. Goodwill thrift shops has been left with little to no inventory and fans have been yearning for more. As those fans go on their search for more Macklemore, they Ànd a plethora of hip-hop music with a deeper message on their newly released album The Heist. This includes the song “Same Love,” which tackles the controversial topic of gay marriage and in

which Macklemore voices his full support of, stating, “I might not be the same, but that’s not important. No freedom till we’re equal; damn right I support it.” On the song “Starting Over” he confesses to his relapse while trying to overcome his addictions. Nora said this one is a personal favorite because of her ability to relate to it, or as she put it, “Seeing how I’m sober and Ben’s music has helped me as a person and human being, it meant a lot to me. He’s just a class act for telling his fans the truth about the relapse.” Even the chart-topping “Thrift Shop,” which most see as a funny song that’s full of nothing more than catchy lyrics and a good dance beat, addresses the materialistic world that we now to live in. Aside from the moving lyrics though, The Heist also offers its listeners an outstanding amount

of substance in the musical content, thanks to producer Ryan Lewis. Where most rappers are only looking for a bass line that rattles the windows, The Heist features a beautiful accompaniment of instruments like the piano and trumpet, as well as singers like Ray Dalton and Mary Lambert, which add a unique Áare and give the songs on this album that special touch that so much hip-hop music is missing today. Even if you think this isn’t your thing, artists like Macklemore and Ryan Lewis give hope to changing the polarization of hip-hop music from other, more “respectable,” genres and bridging the gap between them. When Nora was asked what her overall impression of The Heist was, she simply said, “Best album of 2012. Ryan and Ben changed the independent game for forever.”

The Heist is a must buy for any lover of music that is looking for an album they can get lost in, Ànd inspiration in, and have fun with. For those that already have The Heist, I encourage you to visit Nora’s blog where you have the unique opportunity to watch and listen to new rising stars who are trying to make it independently, just like this amazing pair.
