Brownback will resign be Trump’s religious freedom ambassador CONRAD KABUS THE COLLEGIAN
Kansas Governor Sam Brownback resigned Wednesday after the U.S. Senate confirmed him as the presidential adminis-
tration’s ambassador-at-large for international religious freedom. In a letter to Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Brownback wrote that his resignation will be effective 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 31. “I have been privileged to
serve and represent my fellow citizens for most of my adult life,” Brownback said in the letter he posted on Twitter. “Kansas is a great place to raise a family, get a job, or start a business, and I will always be proud to call it my home.”

“momentous occasion” is a “true celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy.” Like his father, King said he believed in taking a moral high road to “prioritize kindness” when dealing with violent adversaries. “Human beings are capable of great kindness,” King said. “It’s an innate value that nearly all people have inside of them. Now tolerance, on the other hand, that’s a little more challenging. Tolerance can be a struggle for all of us.” One of the most prominent issues King discussed was voting reform to promote voter turnout. “I do believe that we have got to do more to encourage everyone to vote and to eliminate the barriers, both legal and illegal, that discourage and prevent citizens from exercising their right to vote,” King said.

Brownback has served as Kansas’s governor since 2011. The Senate split 49-49 down party lines on Brownback’s nomination for Brownback to serve in the Trump administration, with Vice President Mike Pence casting the tie-breaking vote. “I look forward to continuing in public service as the United States Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom,” Brownback wrote. “Wherever my new duties take me, my Kansas values and experience will always travel with me.” Kansas senator Pat Roberts supported the confirmation, saying that Brownback is ideally suited for the job. “Sam Brownback has always been called to fight for those of all faiths,” Roberts said. Many Democrats and LGBTQ rights advocates opposed the nomination of Brownback, who ended an-
ti-discrimination protections for gay state workers in 2015. Lambda Legal Group, known for litigating and advocating for LGBTQ individuals and groups, released a statement condemning Brownback’s nomination. “He has refused to condemn anti-LGBTQ laws, including those with death penalty sentences. ‘Concerning’ is an understatement,” the group said in a statement Wednesday. “With his confirmation as international ambassador, it is clear Donald Trump and Mike Pence are preparing to export their hateful agenda.” Brownback was nominated for the religious freedom ambassadorship last summer, and he began assigning governor duties to Lieutenant Governor Jeff Colyer, but months passed without a confirmation vote from the U.S. Senate. President Trump had to re-nominate Brownback earlier this month after the full Senate declined to vote last year. “Our state’s been in kind of
a leadership vacuum of chaos,” said Jim Ward, the Democratic leader in the Kansas House of Representatives. “It’s really slowed down and pretty much stopped all progress on any kind of policy because you’ve got two different guys acting like the governor.” Ward is running for governor this year. Brownback served in the U.S. Senate before becoming governor in January 2011. Brownback aggressively cut taxes throughout his tenure as governor, arguing that they would provide “a shot of adrenaline to the heart” of the state’s economy. The Republican governor has grown unpopular in the state of Kansas in recent years, with a 57 percent disapproval rating for his overall performance as governor, according to a 2017 report from Kansas Speaks. Colyer will become Kansas’s next governor following Brownback’s resignation.

Men's basketball to face off against Georgia AVERY OSEN
THE COLLEGIAN
The Kansas State men’s basketball team will look to ride the momentum of a three-game winning streak when they host the University of Georgia this Saturday inside Bramlage Coliseum. They are coming off a win at Baylor on Monday night in which junior guard Barry Brown and junior forMeg Shearer | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP
Junior guard Barry Brown celebrates during the game against the University of West Virginia on Jan. 1 in Bramlage Coliseum. The Wildcats lost by an eight-point margin.
ward Dean Wade had the majority of the points. Saturday could prove monumental in a future bid into the NCAA Tournament as both these teams are hovering around a buddle spot as the season inches closer to February. Of course, there is still a lot of time for either team to work their way into or out of the tournament in the next six weeks, but both teams will look for a non-conference win to bolster their resume. Brown and Wade have looked like two of the best players in the conference over the past two weeks and will need to continue that effort if K-State wants to make a run at a conference title. The Wildcats will host the University of Kansas on
Monday with a share of the lead in the Big 12 on the line, if K-State wins. These next three games will be tough though as K-State will take on Georgia, Kansas and then go to the University of West Virginia on Feb. 3. But first, K-State must stay focused on the Bulldogs, who come into this game with a record of 12-7 overall and struggled in conference play at 3-5. They come into this game losers of four of their last five games and are in need of a win with their lone win in that stretch coming against LSU 61-60. K-State hopes the script goes the same as two years ago when then-freshman Wade hit a two point shot in the corner in the closing
moments to take down the Bulldogs. An important matchup to watch on Saturday will be the big guys; Georgia’s leading scorer, Yante Maten, averages almost 20 points per game and will be guarded by K-State sophomore forward Makol Mawien. The Bulldogs don’t have anyone else who scored more than 10 points per game, so keeping Maten to a low point total could equal an easy win for the Wildcats inside the Octagon of Doom. Georgia has one win over a top-25 team this season; they beat Saint Mary’s in the early part of the season, but conference play has not been friendly to the Bulldogs. Tip off is set for 1 p.m. on Saturday, and the game can be seen on ESPNU.
K-State student, faculty members talk about the ‘F*** KU’ chant DEAUNDRA ALLEN NATHAN ENSERRO THE COLLEGIAN
As the Kansas State men’s basketball team’s romp through the Big 12 continues, the Wildcats’ next opponent looms large. In-state rival, Kansas. One of the the more polarizing aspects of this matchup is the infamous “F*** KU” chant. A chant once started by the student section uproared to songs like “Sandstorm,” but most recently, it has been chanted along with the Wabash Cannonball. It has dwindled down since mid-football season after band director Frank Tracz stopped a performance of the Wabash Cannonball. But, that doesn’t stop the administrators from thinking about what could happen on Monday. Athletics director Gene Taylor talked about how he feels about the chant and how it ultimately represents the university to the other team. “I certainly don’t like it,” Taylor said. “It doesn’t represent who K-State is, and to be honest
with you, I don’t think a majority of the students do either. It is embarrassing. It doesn’t motivate our own team, it motivates the other.” Taylor said he believes the chant both starts and ends with the students. “It starts with the students,” Taylor said. “If it starts to happen, I think the other students should be able to turn around and say, ‘Hey, that doesn’t represent K-State.’ I think that’s the biggest message. It can be seen in a national view of how classy and supportive the students are or students that are vulgar. We aren’t [vulgar], we’re a classy organization. We’ve always had a great fan base, and that’s the image that we want, but the chant doesn’t supplement that.” When it comes to conversation with others about the chant, it can get a little tense. “I’ll just get comments when it gets out,” Taylor said. “’Boy, you sure got a classy group over there.’ It is not a fun conversation to have.” University president Richard Myers also talked about the
chant and how it can further impact donations and the image of the university. “We have heard from many supporters and alumni about the chant,” Myers said. “Almost universally, they are disappointed with the unflattering image of our university the chant portrays. This hurts our ability to solicit donations and raise money for scholarships. It’s unproductive and can sully our reputation.” As far as overall students go, Myers talked about how far it can impact the image of the university. “The unfortunate actions of a few do not speak for the majority of K-State students, faculty, staff and alumni,” Myers said. “The K-State family is highly regarded for our traditions of positive encouragement and support. We need to keep these strong traditions.” Tracz also talked about the representation of the chant and how it affects more than just the students. “We represent all of us,” Tracz said. “So if somebody does something that’s in a negative
fashion, Kansas State takes a hit. Unfortunately, something like this is national and this is what people jump on. ... I’ve been here a long time, and it hurt me big time. “There’s something about this place that’s different than any other place,” Tracz continued. “The people are different, the students are different, the athletics and the band and the community and the administration — it’s different in a very positive way. Let’s keep it that way. Let’s not bring any of that nonsense back. We don’t need it. Let’s beat them fair and square and have one big party that night. Do it with class.” Tracz said the band has worked hard to gain back a great reputation for K-State. “A large group like the K-State band can do so much goodwill, and they have,” Tracz said. “You just don’t want bad things to come out of that and give us all a black eye because there’s so many people who worked so hard over many, many years to get that band to this level, or to get this university to this level. It’s unfair, it’s selfish, it’s self-centered, it’s immature,
it’s irresponsible. You might ask, ‘well did [you] screw around in college?’ I’ll tell you I did, but I respected my university more than to do something like that. I still do.” Tracz said that it comes down to respect for the university. “I think out of respect for athletes, respect for Coach Snyder, Coach Weber, respect for this university and respect for all of us, let’s just keep it clean,” Tracz said. “Let’s just be vocal, be aggressive, let’s be loud, let’s win the game and let’s go to Aggieville.” Student body president Jack Ayres talked about how SGA and K-State Athletics have strived to further improve sportsmanship. “We’ve been working with Athletics for the last ... couple of years to address that issue,” Ayres said. “The university’s efforts — good sportsmanship videos, which is intended tongue and cheek to say: ‘good sportsmanship is not chanting ‘F*** KU.’” “A big goal is encouraging good sportsmanship,” Ayres said. “We sent a letter to organization presidents and said ‘please share this with your organization ei-
ther by email or in person’ to encourage them and try to get a grassroots movement. ... I’m hoping that it helps, and I think that it’s pretty powerful when they stopped the Wabash. It was pretty sad. I do think that [the chant] makes us look really trashy.” Ayres also discussed what the chant can further do to the university’s image. “It’s disappointing because of that side of it, and the other side of it is that there are consequences as we’ve seen with alumni support and things like that,” Ayres said. “I really think that we’re better than this. We’re like the friendliest campus on the face of the planet, right? Let’s act like it.” Ayers even called back the tenure of former athletics director John Currie when pressed about the chant. “John Currie used to say, when he was here: ‘I don’t want to be known as the University of F*** KU...’” Ayres said. “I like the way he talks about that.” The Wildcats will tip off against the Jayhawks in Bramlage Coliseum on Monday at 8 p.m.
K-STATE Women’s basketball to face KU on Jayhawks’ home court Sunday BRETT ENGLE
THE COLLEGIAN
Coming off a loss to the No. 24 TCU Horned Frogs, the Kansas State women’s basketball team will look to rebound with a game against archrival Kansas on Sunday in Lawrence. The Jayhawks and Wildcats both have a record of 11-9 this season. The Wildcats started non-conference play strong, as the team finished with an 8-3 record. Two of the team’s three losses came against ranked opponents. Conference play hasn’t been kind to the Wildcats, as the team is off to a 3-6 mark halfway through the conference schedule, including losing three straight. Most recently, the Wildcats fell to TCU by a score of 68-
63. The game was tied to 34 at halftime, but TCU used a strong third quarter to pull away. Junior guard Kayla Goth did all she could, as she led the team in points with 17, rebounds with 7 and assists with 11. TCU head coach Raegen Pebley had high praise for the Wildcats after the game. “I was really worried about playing this team,” Pebley said to K-State Sports. “I had every right to be worried. They are just a tough matchup for a lot of teams in this conference. They might be one of the toughest teams to match up to. They execute really well and play their strengths really well. This was a hard-fought win for us. We had a lot of players step up in different moments and played some of their best basketball. That is what to took to beat K-State here tonight.”
Goth leads the team offensively with an average 16.7 points per game. She has also been dishing out the ball plenty; she leads the team with 6.7 assists per game. Sophomore forward Peyton Williams is the leader on the defensive side. She is just shy of leading the team in rebounding, averaging seven per game. Williams does lead the team in blocked shots per game, averaging 1.25. The Sunflower Showdown will tip off at 4 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse. That game will air on Fox Sports 1. After the Wildcats square off against the Jayhawks, the team will hit the road again for a game in Norman, Oklahoma, against the University of Oklahoma Sooners. The game is set to tip at 10:30 a.m.

The White House has released a list of parameters regarding immigration legislation. According to CBS News, the plan presented to Congress on Thursday includes a path to citizenship for 1.8 million undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children in exchange for $25 million to build a border wall, an end to the visa lottery system and increased restrictions on family-based immigration. During an impromptu press conference Wednesday evening, President Trump said the path to citizenship would be offered to undocumented immigrants under protection of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and take ten to 12 years to complete.
