Easterner Asks: How do you feel about EWU’s decision to not become a sanctuary campus?

Noah Bailey freshman “It’s kind of a big legal risk to be [labeled sanctuary] with Donald Trump being elected ... I don’t necessarily think it defines the Eastern political climate or their views ... they’re just playing it on the safe side.”

Maria Sanchez sophomore “It’s kind of sad, but you can’t really do anything about it. That doesn’t make me not like Eastern any more or any less. It’s just a sad thing that’s going on in our nation now.”

James Tilbury sophomore “I trust Eastern’s directors and the bigwigs. I don’t know, we’re just in a weird time right now. I don’t know what to think to be honest.”

Eveth Padilla senior “It is kind of like you are betraying your immigrant students. So you only care about their money? I feel like what makes Eastern is multiculturalism.

That’s why a lot of people come here, because they feel safe.”

Tabitha Black senior “I do think that people should not be sanctioned on this. Unfortunately though, because a lot of [university funds] come out of our tax dollars, I believe that it is the government’s right to know.”

Brandon Velazquez senior “I’d honestly have to think about that. I wouldn’t feel comfortable.

It wouldn’t feel right. It wouldn’t feel right to me.

It’s something personal.”

EWU students and faculty came together for the pro-immigration rally on Tuesday | Brad Brown for The Easterner

EWU Community Came Together to Show Support of Immigration Logan Stanley Staff Reporter A student-organized rally was held in the campus mall Tuesday at noon in response to President

Trump’s recent executive order regarding immigration.

The order -- which indefinitely bars Syrian refugees from entering the U.S., suspends all refugee requests for 120 days and denies

citizens from seven predominantly Muslim countries (Iran, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Libya and Yemen) entry into the U.S. -- has drawn a slew of bipartisan outcry and has spurred protests across the nation.

EWU President Mary Cullinan, Ph.D., issued a statement during the rally where she attempted to assure protection for students.

“Moreover, our university will continue to welcome and support

students, regardless of immigration status,” said Cullinan. “And the university is committed to the privacy of student records, for all students.”

The subject of debate is whether or not EWU should become a sanctuary campus, which are institutions that implement policies to protect undocumented immigrants.

Declaring sanctuary campus status could jeopardize EWU’s potential to receive federal funds as President Trump has issued an executive order that cuts off federal funding to sanctuary cities and possibly to public universities who do not comply.

Currently, EWU has not claimed sanctuary campus status after denying a petition that was submitted to the Board of Trustees in 2016.

Logan Camporeale, EWU graduate student and rally organizer, said he felt compelled to set up the event after feeling what he called frustration when he first heard of the executive order.

“It seemed like an easy way we could all come out and show our support,” said Camporeale. “There’s not a particular organization I’m affiliated with, just a group of

concerned students that decided ‘hey, let’s see if we can make this happen and show those populations that are vulnerable that we support them here.’”

The rally featured several speakers who all spoke out against the executive order.

One speaker, Majid Sharifi, Ph.D., EWU associate professor of political science, told his story of immigrating from Iran to the United States back in the early 1970s. Sharifi used the story as an illustration comparing how it was then and how it is now.

Sharifi cautioned that while people may think that the situation (U.S. foreign policy) was “bad” in the past, the situation is far worse right now than it has ever been.

“At the time, I thought things were so bad,” said Sharifi. “So bad. Because of course Iran was messed up, in a sense politically, partly because of U.S. foreign policy … Now, so many years have gone, I’m well-off, I’m a citizen of this country, I’ve been here so long, I feel apart of the country.

But, things are worse. I’m sorry to say that, things are worse than ever before.”

Students listen in to speakers at the Campus Mall for a rally to support immigrants | Brad Brown for The Easterner Following Sharifi’s speech was the President’s Committee on Diversity (PCOD), which is comprised of various EWU faculty.

PCOD sets up programs, events and initiatives in the name of promoting diversity. One of these committee members, Sarah Dalrymple of the English Language Institute, spoke prior to the rally on her thoughts about the recent executive order issued by President Trump.

“I think [the executive order is] really harmful to our students,” said Dalrymple. “I think it’s discriminatory. I think it’s heartless.

Our students are scared, confused as how to find help. They’re separated from their families; their families can’t come here, they can’t go back unless they give up their studies.”

Through EWU Global, which oversees the international student services, the university currently has students from four of the seven countries that are currently barred entry into the U.S. (Iran, Sudan, Syria and Yemen). Under current federal rules, if any students from those countries were to leave the U.S., they would be denied re-entry, even if they are on a student visa. .•

President Cullinan Karissa Berg for The Easterner

Emily Guidnger Hunt for The Easterner EWU’s Presidential Dialogues on Diversity, hosted Jan. 30

by President Mary Cullinan, illuminated the importance of building rapport between members of the campus community and local law enforcement.

The open invitation letter sent

by Cullinan to the community posed the questions of ”how do we work together to ensure that we have safe campus environments where the rights of all are respected” and “how do we build and enhance respectful relationships between law enforcement officers and our campus constituencies?”

These topics were addressed in the first of a two-part series in which community members, students, faculty and staff engaged in conversation with representatives from the university and the community relating to important issues concerning diversity on campus.

EWU Chief of Police Tim Walters and Sgt. Jay Day were joined on the panel by Lt. Tracie Meidl of the Spokane Police Department, Bishop Shon L. Davis of the Kingdom Fellowship Church Alliance and Christina Seldon, president of the EWU Black Student Union.

Walters said that a priority for the EWU Police is to “integrate into the fabric of the community” by emphasizing the evolution of a culture that embraces law enforcement as the “guardians of our safety and well-being.”

Cullinan encouraged participants to seek a balance of diversity on campus by engaging in authentic interaction with each other and by practicing the art of listening.

“We have to stay focused as a campus,” said Cullinan. “We have to stay one as an institution.”

EWU senior, Elizabeth Shaw, expressed her views during the round

table conversation segment.

“Every community is different,” said Shaw. “It is hard for us here to fully understand Ferguson; to understand Baltimore, because our experiences are so different.

We are such an overwhelmingly white population.”

When asked about the stance EWU Police is taking to make all students feel safe on campus, Shaw said she is cautiously optimistic about it and hopeful. She said she hopes campus police follow through on what they said today and she hopes that because of events like this, campus police officers will be held accountable.

In the second installment of EWU Presidential Dialogues on Diversity, Cullinan’s objective is to tackle the question of “how do we foster understanding to help ensure that our campuses are safe learning environments for all people, regardless of culture or religion?”

The segment, titled “Islamophobia,” will occur Mar. 6, 2017, in the Hargreaves Reading Room and is open to all members of EWU and the surrounding community as well as online via live stream through the EWU Office of the President webpage. .•

Decades of Fun

LLCs come together for one night during the Library Lights Out event Abbi Vance Art Director Although there is not a gold plaque that brings statues and structures to life at a certain time of night, and Ben Stiller is not a security guard for the J.F.K. Library, Library Lights Out started out as a Night at the Museum inspired thought.

When the community adviser for the social science Living Learning Community (LLC), now Explore, brought the idea of staying the night in the library to Jeff Stafford, communication studies professor and adviser, eight years ago, nothing like it had been done on campus before.

Together, they formed a proposal and took the idea to the library who asked Justin Otto, associate professor of libraries, to be the head librarian on the project.

“It was supposed to be a special program for LLCs,” said Deb Stafford, LLC coordinator. “Originally sponsored by the social science and behavioral LLCs, we consider this a showcase event for living learning community students.”

The annual event is exclusive to only LLC members which allows for different small

8 | February 2, 2017 The Easterner

groups of students to mingle in one place without the chaos of thousands, and gives those in the LLCs something specific to look forward to every year solely for them.

When the event first started, the four existing LLCs were only located in Morrison Hall. Now, eight LLCs are located in five of the eight resident halls around campus.

“The first year after we split LLCs into different buildings, we wanted students to meet other students and that was the first year we had a theme,” said Deb Stafford.

“We felt we needed something to tie these strangers in with each other.”

Themes for the event have ranged in the past from Survivor to Harry Potter. This year’s theme was Decades.

The library had minimal decoration, but students came dressed to impress in their decade attire.

When entering the library, students were asked to check in where they received a lanyard with a colorful piece of paper attached to the end.

The paper, which would later signify their team, ranged from the 1920s, marked by a picture of a fedora, all the way to the 90s/2000s, which was marked by a picture of Justin Timberlake.

“I love coming and meeting new people based on the random selection of a headband or lanyard,” sophomore Mattie Bialozor, computer science LLC member, said. “It forces you to meet new people not in your LLC and it makes it feel more like a community.”

When the event first took place, there were only about 35 students from Morrison Hall’s LLCs that attended. Out of those, a majority stayed the night. The events numbers now range from 90-100 students every year, with about half staying the night, Deb Stafford said.

“I think I like it being specific to LLCs because then there isn’t a thousand kids here, there’s only a few,” freshman Micaella Rickard, H2O LLC member, said.

After the students ate, they were split into their groups for team building activities. Activities included over-under ball pass competition, a pool noodle name game and four category corners to get the students out of their shells and bond with others. One activity during the night specifically targets the academic learning component of the event; the library scavenger hunt.

“We hope that people have a better understanding about the library and make it seem like not such an intimidating place,” Otto said.

When team builders were done, students were free to partake in activities of their choosing. The main level held activities such as Mario: Super Smash Bros, Mahjong tutorials and a tournament and coloring, crafting and dry erase games in the PLUS and Multi Media Center. The upper level contained laser tag while the lower level would be used later in the night for a movie.

“I like that there are different stations and different activities, but I’m also glad for the structure and consistency for moving activities along,” Balozor said.

Snacks were provided during the night and for those who chose to stay the night, there was pizza. In the morning, students were provided breakfast and helped clean-up the library to restore it to its original state.

“I want students to see the possibility of how we’re all here tonight because one person had an idea and they pursued it.” Jeff Stafford said. •

The Cast of Avenue Q

Avenue Q cast members and puppeteers speak on what it is like being in the show Erin Rebar A&E and Features Editor “Avenue Q” is more than just a puppet show. Billed as an adult version of Sesame Street, it is full of humor and lightheartedness but also tackles a multitude of more adult themes.

“I love the tagline for the show, ‘It’s like your life, only funnier,’” said Scott Worley, an EWU junior who plays Princeton in the show. “People say it’s like Sesame Street for adults and it is, but it’s like puppets and stuff dealing with real life issues like paying your bills and the economy, which you wouldn’t think would be in a musical.”

Though they admit working with puppets can be challenging, the actors and actresses

12 | February 2, 2017 The Easterner

of Avenue Q are excited to bring it to the EWU main stage later this quarter.

“I love this show! It doesn’t matter where you’re at in your life,” said Hannah McLaughlin, an EWU sophomore who plays Kate Monster. “There’s a character for everyone.”

McLaughlin is currently studying both theater and english and, like her character, hopes to one day become a teacher.

“I’m a lot like Kate,” said McLaughlin.

“Or at least I like to think that I am. She’s a kindergarten teaching assistant. She has big plans to make her own school, basically. And she’s kind of stuck as a kindergarten teaching assistant, which isn’t a very glorious job.

Which, if you’ve ever been a kindergarten

teaching assistant, you’d know. She’s very kind and very sweet and very strong. A lot of times with this character she can be played off as very weak and willy-nilly, but she isn’t.”

McLaughlin said they have been playing with the puppets since the very start of rehearsals. Her puppet, Kate, has two rods that connect to either hand for use in directing Kate’s gestures. This, McLaughlin said, is challenging because using the rods feels almost like a backwards pair of chopsticks.

They’ve tried other methods, including velcro, to make puppet manipulation easier.

It is also extremely important for the student puppeteers to focus on their own facial expressions and movements.

This is because both a slack face and an

over-exaggerated one can be distracting for the audience.

“It’s easier for the audience if you are a good reflection of your puppet, like a mirror,” McLaughlin said.

Though McLaughlin and some of her cast mates cite puppeteering as being among the most challenging aspects of the show, Worley said he enjoys the challenge and appreciates how rewarding the process can be.

“The puppets are so much fun,” said Worley. “They’re temperamental. They have a mind of their own. We watched a video that was like a backstage Avenue Q broadway thing, and they said in their puppet bootcamp people cried. We were all like oh, whatever, but then when we started working with them. I

Mallory Ware practices a slap during rehearsal | Erin Rebar for The Easterner remember leaving rehearsal so stressed out because you have to think about so much.

You’re talking and you have to match the words to the mouth and you have to match the eye direction. It’s a lot more challenging than I thought it was going to be.”

Like Sesame Street, Avenue Q is a mixture of puppet and human actors.

Mallory Ware, an EWU alumna who plays the character Christmas Eve, does not play a puppet in the show, but she still finds working with them to be challenging.

“You have to be able to look the puppet in the eye,” said Ware. “And Kate Monster right now, the practice puppet, her eyes are off set a little. It’s a little jarring because you try to find the eye to look at.”

Though not currently employed in the theater world, Ware has acted and directed in numerous plays. Acting gives her a creative break from real life, Ware said.

“You don’t get recess anymore as an adult,” said Ware. “This is like having recess at the end of the day.”

Worley echoed this sentiment, but Denny Pham, a newly graduated EWU

alumus who plays Avenue Q’s iconic role of Trekkie, had a different reason for being a part of the theater world.

“Sometimes, I kind of like being someone else on stage rather than being myself,” Pham said.

He also went on to say that being in theater — whether backstage, in the audience, or in the cast — is a moment of connection. Everyone who is part of theater experiences moments when they are all connected and experiencing the same moment, together, Pham said.

“Everyone who’s there is forgetting their problems or whatever is going on in their life, and we are all here together,” Pham said.

The cast said they are hopeful that EWU students will come out and see the show when it opens in March.

“There’s nothing better than coming with a group of friends and seeing a show,” said Ware. “I think that’s a great night out.

Or Netflix. That too.” •

OPINION Gerald Maid for The Easterner

EDITORIAL

Denying Sanctuary Campus Status is Not Just Black and White

Letters to the Editor

Despite the bitter cold and sounds of heavy metal machinery in the background, students, faculty and community members alike gathered on the campus mall in support of immigrant students.

The idea was to foster support for the petition for EWU to become a sanctuary campus, but what does that mean?

Let’s break it down first. By labeling EWU as a sanctuary campus, the administration would agree to protect the immigration status of students. They’d actively refuse to comply with immigration authorities, including denying the ability to perform raids and refusing to voluntarily provide any information to the fullest extent of the law. Finally, they would ensure all members of the campus community feel safe.

Keep in mind this is an extremely simplified explanation.

In November 2016, the Board of Trustees (BOT) denied the petition on the grounds that

“EWU is much more than a safe harbor. While we continue efforts to ensure the safety of our students, faculty and staff, we also continue our profound commitment to launch an educated workforce for the region and state. Student success is the heart of our mission.”

The official statement goes on to say they will protect students privacy in compliance with the law and the government has the right to enforce immigration law. They aren’t technically wrong, student information and privacy is protected under Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and doesn’t have to be presented without a warrant. For many students, this feels like a cop-out and that the university will put its own interests above their students when push comes to shove.

The government’s already pushing back against those cities that have declared themselves to be sanctuary cities. President Trump vowed to defund any city that labeled itself as a sanctuary

city on the basis that they were harboring illegal immigrants. This has resulted in an enormous backlash from these cities not only against President Trump, but also within and between the states themselves.

You can almost see each fissure and crack spreading from city to city as the people rally either in protest or support of this decision. It seems like America is going to rip itself apart before this is over.

“This reminds me of the phrase, Charles Tilly, a great sociologist, made ‘War makes the state, fear mongering, war, makes the state.’

But now we have to say, states makes refugees,” EWU Professor Majid Sharifi said at the rally in response to the current fear based atmosphere around the country.

Students in favor of becoming a sanctuary campus support their argument on the basis that the university needs to provide a substantial, binding agreement to their students that they will do everything they can to protect them. As it stands now, students are faced with the fear that the moment things get too difficult for the university, they will step out of the way and let the authorities drag immigrant students away.

Jaclyn Archer, community relations officer for BSU and county vice chair for the Spokane County Democrats said in her speech “Some of us are more privileged than others. I am one of those some of us who live here, my citizenship is assured. I was born in the United States and that means that I have a voice with which I can speak up for those in more vulnerable positions.”

However, those who reject the idea of becoming a sanctuary campus use the argument that a sanctuary campus is a blanket policy. Sure it feels nice and warm and cozy, but when the hammer comes down it does absolutely nothing to truly protect you.

There are already laws in place that protect student records, and, in response to the clause in the petition that the university should “refuse all voluntary information sharing with ICE (U.S. Department of Homeland Security Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and CBP (U.S. Customs and Border Protection) across all aspects of the University to the fullest extent possible under the law,” as it stands now no citizen has to give any information to the authorities without a warrant.

Therefore, the university doesn’t have to give the authorities any information without a warrant, making that point a little moot.

The university is sticking to the stance that “EWU campus police do not partner with federal, state, or other local law enforcement agencies to enforce federal immigration law. The university is committed to the privacy of student records for all students, consistent with state and federal laws,” as stated in a campus-wide email.

The problem with this issue is that it is easy to empathize with both sides of the argument.

While it is fundamentally wrong to discriminate against anyone based on their nation of origin or the color of their skin, does the university really have a responsibility to put themselves on the line for their students? Should they stand tall against the government and say no, no you cannot, will not take these students.

What happens when the president loses his marbles and starts taking funding away from any school that defines itself as a sanctuary? He has already decided the stance of a city board is justification enough to punish the entire city.

What happens when he decides the stance of a university is justification enough to punish the students who attend that school?

Is it worth it then?

But then, tell us, what happens when people become so terrified of repercussions they revert to the old ways of hiding themselves away. When the fear is so palpable, so tangible that it chokes the will out of every citizen? Do we really want to live in a society that persecutes people based on where they’re from or what they look like?

History has seen time and time again what happens when people decide one type of people is better or deserves more than another. Think of the Holocaust. If that’s too extreme, think of the war over slavery, when people were so terrified of being hunted down they hid underground and had to rely on the kindness and strength of others to survive. History proves persecution will not stand.

Honestly, the concept of a sanctuary campus seems to live in that fuzzy gray area between right and wrong. Here’s hoping that the world has seen enough carnage and hatred to understand that kindness and acceptance should be the goal of the day.

We can’t tell you what to think or where to stand on this issue, but what we can do is make sure we help those who need us.

As Archer said, the best thing you can do is walk up and say “I’m willing, I’m here and how can I help?” •

Style Nest Build a better spring wardrobe with these six essential pieces

Colette-Janae Buck Copy Editor So many funky trends and styles showed up on the runways of New York’s Men’s fashion week this past January. However, instead of reviewing trends that aren’t real life appropriate, I wanted to bring men’s fashion a little closer to home by offering advice to the guys of EWU as we all transition from our winter wearings to our spring ones.

Dressing yourself in the morning shouldn’t be hard, nor should it really be alarmingly simple either. If you find yourself staring at a closet of clothing without a clue as to what to wear besides what you did the day before, listen up. You’ve got a wardrobe that needs a little help in the essentials department.

Essentials, or basic items of clothing that an individual should have in their wardrobe at all times, are versatile pieces that allow you to mix and match the more bizarre or particular pieces of clothing you have in your greater wardrobe. They’re simple, inexpensive and can often become the center pieces of your outfits if you favor a more casual look.

When starting to shop for your essential items to reorganize and rebuild his wardrobe, one of the very first purchases that should be made, is a well-fitted, collared shirt.

It’s the most basic and versatile item you could own.

The brand doesn’t have to be anything fancy, in fact, a well fitted $10 collared shirt from H&M would look just as good as an expensive one from Macy’s. It is literally all about the fit of the shirt and how it looks on your body.

Four key areas to focus on when deciding if a collared shirt is the right fit for you are the neck, the shoulders, the chest and the torso. Make sure the shirt’s collar does not fit too snugly around your neck. You should be able to fit two fingers between the top of the shirt and your neck when the collar is buttoned to the top.

Watch the distance between the collar and where the sleeves are attached to the shirt.

The sleeve seams of a properly fitted collared shirt should sit right at the very base of the shoulder where it joins your arm. Your chest should also be able to fill out a properly collared shirt without making the contours of your body visible. Lastly, make sure the cut of the shirt follows the contours of your torso closely and creates a clean line without hugging your sides too tightly. It should also not leave too much leftover fabric when tucked into pants.

For spring, sweaters are an absolute must if you’re looking to streamline your wardrobe while still maintaining a sense of style and ease. Monochromatic, soft fabric options like cotton and cashmere are great for when you’re layering and do not want to bulk up your look. Thicker knits are usually better for when you want the layers for warmth, or for when you aren’t feeling layering at all. You can also combine both your collared shirt and your sweater together to create a well-kempt and easy look that can be dressed up or down.

Coats can a tricky thing to master when building a wardrobe, especially a spring wardrobe.

You want a coat thick enough to make sure you’re warm during the morning and night but thin and stylish enough to be used as an accessory layer during the day.

Straight cut or structured coats with hoods in neutral colors such black or grey are great. Try out different materials, such as leather

or thicker cotton, to help keep you warm and your outfit put together.

A simple printed or graphic tee is another piece that can be a casual wardrobe statement, which you can dress up or dress down for an everyday school look. Like the rules for the collared shirt, make sure your printed or graphic tee shirt fits you correctly. A nicely tapered cotton shirt that again fits your chest and shoulders can offer a more laid back vibe.

A nice, cheap pair of dark wash, slim fit jeans are perhaps one of the most important essentials a guy could have in his wardrobe.

Like everything else on this list, they can be worn either casually with a flannel and your graphic tee, or dressed up with your nice collared shirt and jacket for an evening or more formal occasion.

When looking for a good pair of jeans, use your instincts. Try on a couple different fits to find one that you could see yourself slipping into every day. Make sure they’re flexible and fit nicely around your thighs and butt while still offering room. The leg should taper nicely to your shoes without too much extra fabric around the ankle.

Shoes are the final piece of the wardrobe puzzle. A classic shoe such as a pair of converse or a nice neutral-toned sneaker are both great options for those guys who tend to take their casual dress seriously. For those who prefer to dress up a little more often, try keeping a suede or dark leather boot in the back of your closet. Chelsea boots and chukka boots are two great options for that classic, dark or neutral suede boot.

Deciding what to wear in the morning doesn’t have to be hard if you have some essential pieces to mix and match from, no matter the occasion. Just remember that these pieces are merely suggestions to help you start to build a wardrobe that is easy and that you’re proud to wear. •

MOVIE

Silence “Silence” is a historical drama released in theaters Dec. 23, 2016.

The movie takes place in the Edo period of Japanese history when the government decreed a complete ban of Christianity.

Two missionaries are sent on a Courtesy of Paramount Pictures journey to find their mentor who has gone missing. As they travel through the countryside they must remain hidden, fearing the terrors they may face if they are ever to be discovered. The film immerses you in their world as you watch the trials and tribulations these missionaries have to struggle through in order to not only survive, but stay true to their beliefs. If you want a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat, this is it. (Ian Bouchard)

CLASS

PHED 125 SCUBA Diving.

Since attending EWU, I have had few activities that I can have a good time in, scuba diving being one of them. As well as having a good time, scuba diving allows you to join a strong, responsible Courtesy of EWU Scuba community that teaches you how to explore and respect a whole new world under the waves.

VIDEO GAME

The Lord of the Rings Online I’ll be honest, I’m not big into video games of any type. Despite that, Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) is a gem. A large part of this could be because I am so in love with the books and this game really does it justice.

Courtesy of Turbine LOTRO is an online role playing game that allows you to create a character based off of several of Tolkien’s races and free roam his entire universe while playing with other players from around the world. The gamers out there will appreciate this game for its engaging combat and storyline. The Lord of the Rings fans, like me, will relish the ability to explore often dreamt of lands like Rivendell, the Shire and Gondor. (Erin Rebar)

After moving state to state, high school to high school and college to college, senior Jake Wiley is reaping the rewards he has sown at EWU Courtesy of GoEags.com

It’s Been a Long and Winding Road Jake Wiley’s path to EWU has been one filled with hardships Riley Baker

Staff Reporter Nearly one year ago, EWU basketball celebrated senior day as the team played their final game of the 2015-16 regular season against Weber State.

While the team that included former seniors Venky Jois and Austin McBroom fought the firstplace Wildcats, the fans at Reese Court looked on. One young man in attendance that afternoon was a 6-foot-7-inch junior forward from the Lewis-Clark State College men’s basketball team who was dominating the NAIA. His name? Jake Wiley.

“I was looking at Weber State, and I said to my fiancée, ‘I don’t know if I’m

16 | February 2, 2017 The Easterner

good enough to play at this level ... Maybe I should stay at L-C,’” Wiley said.

His fiancé, Brittany Hopkins, reassured him that he was good enough to play at the NCAA level, and it was that day Wiley said he made the decision to go for it.

A year later, Wiley is leading the 2016-17 Eagles on the court, averaging 17.5 points per game in his senior year.

He also leads the team and ranks 11th in NCAA Division I with a field goal percentage of 62.9.

But his story is not as simple as a promising basketball prospect transferring from a successful NAIA school to a successful NCAA Division I school. Wiley’s story begins much earlier.

When Wiley was 13 years old, he was a freshman at Lakewood High School in Long Beach, California. That year, he struggled academically, passing only one class while finishing with a 1.6 GPA. “I lived in kind of a rough neighborhood, and I was younger than most of my peers and everyone who lived around me,” said Wiley. “I was 13 when I started high school, and I was hanging out with people who were 17 and 18 years old and doing what they were doing.”

Growing up among an older group of kids got him into a lot of trouble, Wiley said. In order to get a fresh start, he and his father moved up to the Pacific Northwest to live with his grandparents, where he attended Newport High School near Spokane.

It was there that he saw his GPA jump from 1.6 to a 3.1. While the move helped him turn his academics around, it did not keep him from facing any further hardships.

During his junior year of high school in December 2010, his grandmother passed away. Two months later, so did his father.

The morning after having a big game to lift Newport to a district win over Freeman, Wiley went to show his dad the story in the newspaper. Instead, he found his father had died in his sleep on the couch.

Wiley said he almost went back to California after that but decided to stay in the Northwest with his grandfather before he too passed away last year.

“We were just there for each other,” said Wiley. “I had a great support system around me with my fiancée, and her parents took me in, along with my grandpa. They made sure I was taken care of, had food to eat and had rides to school.”

Wiley’s mother and sister still live in California and he keeps in close contact with them. Hopkins’ parents still live in Spokane, and they come to every EWU game to cheer him on.

Once he entered his senior year of high school, Wiley said he was unsure of his future in basketball. Although he was confident in his ability, he had doubts about whether or not he would get noticed. Then the University of Montana gave him a shot.

“I played A AU one summer for a local Spokane team,” said Wiley. “We did a couple tournaments. That’s how Montana saw me, and I signed there out of high school.”

Eventually the transition from a small high school team to a major college basketball program got to him. Montana went to the NCAA tournament in Wiley’s freshman year, and he found it so overwhelming that he quit the team on the first day of practice his sophomore year.

“Like the flip of a switch I was just done with it. I was burned out,” said Wiley. “I put a lot of pressure on myself ... and I just felt like a failure based on my

own expectations that I set way too high for myself.”

He did not touch a basketball for six months after that, and instead ran track and even practiced with the football team while trying to find himself. But once the NCAA tournament rolled back around in March, Wiley said he realized he could not give up the game he loved.

“I was watching [the NCAA tournament] and I had to start playing basketball again,” said Wiley. “I missed it.”

He started looking for schools and even considered EWU at one point, but decided against it because he would have lost a year of eligibility because of the NCAA transfer rules. So instead, he decided to go through the NAIA, where he transferred to L-C State along with two other Montana teammates.

“We had a great time,” said Wiley. “We won two championships there, went to the NAIA tournament twice and won a lot of games. It was a blast.”

As Wiley completed his senior year, he knew he had to move on. L-C State did not offer any graduate programs. So instead of playing one more year there, which would delay him from earning his degree, he took advantage of the senior graduate transfer rule and transferred to EWU. “It was a tough thing to leave [LCSC] because I love the coaches and my teammates, but they knew and I knew that I needed to grow,” Wiley said.

He now lives in Cheney with Brittany and their 1-year-old daughter, Aliya, while he works toward a master’s degree in communication studies. Wiley said he has thought about going into coaching with that degree, but first, he has his eyes set on playing professional basketball in Europe.

As for now, though, he is taking advantage of the opportunities on the court with EWU and he is only getting better.

“Like the flip of a switch I was just

done with it. I was

“It’s about big opportunity,” head coach Jim Hayford said. “Jake’s Division I dream was postponed and now here he is ... He’s maximizing his opportunity and he’s clearly, to me, the top post player in the Big Sky Conference. And no one deserves it more because he’s as hard a worker as I’ve ever coached ... and I just wish I had had him for more than one year.”

Even through the trials and tribulations Wiley has faced in his life, all of his hard work is paying off. He was named Big Sky Player of the Week for the second week in a row on Jan. 23 and he looks to finish his senior year with his Eagles perched atop the conference come March. •

Cooper Kupp Razzles and Dazzles at Senior Bowl Logan Stanley Staff Reporter Cooper Kupp. For residents of Eastern Washington and fans of EWU football, the name carries a legendary significance -- 73 TDs (NCAA FCS record); 6,464 yards (NCAA record); 428 receptions (NCAA FCS record). Soon, millions of households across America could become well accustomed to his name.

Over the past week, Kupp had the chance to showcase his talents to NFL personnel at the Reese’s Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. Practices each day were broadcasted across television networks.

These practices were where Kupp began making name for himself amongst NFL circles. Kupp was the talk of the Senior Bowl, with scouts, draft analysts and reporters raving about the former EWU wide receiver.

The excitement for Kupp started right off the bat at the Senior Bowl on day one of practice, with

Bleacher Report NFL Draft analyst Matt Miller declaring “The Cooper Kupp love is real” via Twitter. The hype really began to steamroll when Kupp made a spectacular play on one of the top cornerback prospects, Iowa DB Desmond King and the play was tweeted out by Rob Lowder of The Niners Wire (USA Today Sports).

The tweet garnered a bevy of engagement -- 543 retweets and 1,413 likes. From there, things only went up for Kupp. Day after day, practice after practice, Kupp continued to amaze. Soon, the Senior Bowl was being declared Cooper Kupp’s. Mike Garafolo, national reporter for the NFL Network, was one of those people heaping praise onto Kupp, calling his route running ‘dazzling.’

Kupp is no longer a novelty of Washington state. He is now projected to be drafted higher than initially thought, with multiple analysts having moved Kupp’s ranking up because of his Senior Bowl performance.

Prior to the Senior Bowl, Kupp was thought of by analysts as a third or fourth-rounder. Scouts were unsure of Kupp’s potential as most scouts are with FCS players.

That has changed dramatically now that scouts and analysts have received a more extensive look of Kupp. Miller from Bleacher Report currently has Kupp ranked 42nd overall (No. 4 WR) in his top 300 draft rankings and says Kupp has chance to leapfrog Washington WR John Ross in the rankings -- who is currently ranked as the No. 3 WR. Gil Brandt, the former vice president of player personnel for the Dallas Cowboys from 19601989 (2 Super Bowls; 5 NFC Championships), said that if Kupp runs well at the combine, it is possible that he could sneak into the draft’s first round.

Besides the honor of being selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, this carries a historical and financial significance.

First, EWU has never had a firstround draft pick in its history; OL Michael Roos was a second round pick in 2005. It is only fitting that Kupp would be the first EWU player to be selected in the first round.

Secondly, one’s first NFL contract is dictated entirely on the position they are selected at. A firstround contract is worth far more than a second-round contract, thirdround contract, etc.

If, hypothetically, Cooper Kupp gets drafted at No. 14 to Philadelphia Eagles (which has been speculated) -- last year’s No. 14 pick signed a four year, $11,884,317 million deal. If Kupp were to fall to the second, third or even fourth-round, that contract would be significantly less -- second-round contracts average around $4.8 million, third-round contracts average around $3.1 million and fourthround contracts average around $1.2 million. So, we are talking at least a $5 million difference.

Looking ahead, Kupp will have two more potential opportunities show teams and scouts his ability.

First, Kupp will be participating in the NFL Combine from February 28 - March 6 at Lucas Oilfield Stadium in Indianapolis. This is the main stage where all of the best collegiate talent come together to workout in front of NFL teams; it is essentially the “main interview” for aspiring NFL players.

Second, usually colleges hold “pro days” -- their mini version of the NFL Combine. EWU’s pro day has yet to be announced, but according to Dave Cook, EWU sports information director, the pro day will likely occur in early April. •

2015 NFL Draft Contract Values $30.0 $27.5 $25.0 $22.5 $20.0 $17.5 $15.0 $12.5 $10.0 $7.5 $5.0 $2.5 $0.0

Freshman forward Mason Peatling beating a defender for a layup Whitney Bolar for The Easterner

Riley Baker Staff Reporter EWU men’s basketball gave up both its season high and low in points allowed to Big Sky Conference opponents this past weekend.

The Eagle defense gave up only 60 points in the team’s win over Montana, their second fewest of the season behind the 47 points allowed to Linfield in November. EWU then allowed 91 in their loss to Montana State, despite scoring 90 themselves.

The glaring stat was the turnovers.

While EWU outscored UM 15-6 in points off of turnovers, they were outscored by MSU 16-2.

“We turned the ball over a little too much,” said head coach Jim Hayford

of their loss. “Some of those turnovers turned into easy points going the other way, and that’s why we didn’t have a lead going down the stretch.”

The team’s defense has been outstanding all season. The 91 points allowed was the most all season and the second time they allowed more than 70 in BSC play.

Despite the defense faltering on Saturday, the offense kept churning like usual.

Bogdan Bliznyuk had a doubledouble on Thursday night with 28 points and 10 rebounds, and then Jake Wiley scored 34 points on Saturday.

“Bogdan was playing at a really high level,” said Hayford of Thursday night’s win. “Bogdan took care of it down the stretch and made sure

90

nothing crazy was going to happen.

That’s how you leave Missoula with a 12-point win.”

EWU’s offense has played well all year as they typically do. This year, the defense has found consistency on the court as well. Although it did not all come together on Saturday night, the team has a good thing going with only nine games remaining before the BSC tournament in Reno in March.

“We’re really buying into that identity and I’m really proud of our guys,” Hayford said.

EWU next plays Sacramento State at Reese Court today at 6:05 p.m. and can be heard live on 700-AM ESPN. •
