Confucius Institute celebrates Chinese New Year with annual fair RACHEL HOGAN THE COLLEGIAN

Vibrant costumes lined the walls and hundreds of voices echoed in the high ceilings of the Fiedler-Rathbone Atrium in the Kansas State Engineering Complex as Manhattan residents welcomed the beginning of the Chinese New Year.

The Confucius Institute at K-State hosted the third annual Chinese Culture Fair in the Engineering Complex on Sunday afternoon to welcome the Year of the Dog and educate the public on Chinese culture. ”A lot of students and community members here in Manhattan don’t really understand the Chinese population that inhabits the same area as they do,” said Zach Bomberger, Confucius Institute volunteer and 2016 K-State alumnus. “This is a perfect opportunity

for them to come participate in games while also teaching them about Chinese people, Chinese culture, language, etc.”

Xiaolei Qin, teacher in international programs, said it creates a people-to-people exchange.

The event drew hundreds of students and community members alike to craft bookmarks, paint masks inspired

by Chinese opera, roll fake dumplings from Play-Doh and sample Chinese cuisine.

This year’s fair celebrated the start of the Year of the Dog, the eleventh animal on the Chinese zodiac calendar. The Chinese zodiac repeats on a 12-year cycle, and those born during a Year of the Dog (1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, etc.) are uniquely marked by sincerity and loyalty, Qin said.

The Chinese Culture Fair followed the Chinese Spring Festival Gala, which celebrated the dawn of the Year

of the Dog on Friday. The Confucius Institute helped sponsor, support and coordinate both events.

The Confucius Institute is an exchange and partnership with Jilin University in northeast China that helps fund cultural activities on the K-State campus and in the Manhattan area, and it provides non-credit Chinese language classes, said Max Lu, director of the Confucius Institute and professor of geography.

Lu said the institute helped, in part, to establish Chinese students as the majority of all international students. According to the Office of International Programs, there are almost 800 Chinese students attending K-State.

“They have a presence at K-State, particularly in the schools of business and engineering — hundreds, literally,” Lu said. “It’s great to see so many Chinese students around and all the interaction with American students.”

huge efforts.”

Kaylie McLaughlin, assistant news editor: “Have you noticed this academic year to be different from others in the time that you’ve worked here, and if yes, how so?”

McLaughlin: “What actions has the university taken to counteract the drop in enrollment aside from hiring the consultant?”

Mason: “We’ve committed some additional resources to scholarships, both need-based and merit-based. We have committed some new positions to out-of-state recruitment efforts.

We’ve also committed some additional funds, and this was a few years ago, to international student recruitment. We are having to look at that pretty carefully because it may not be our recruitment efforts; it may be the inability of many international students to get visas, and things like that we can’t effect a change in.”

April Mason, university provost and senior vice president: “A little bit, but it’s because it’s my last academic year here.

At the new student convocation I got all ... choked up, and then again at commencement, I got a little choked up in December. I think it was because I was thinking, ‘Well, this is the last new student convocation I’ll do, this is the last December commencement I’ll do.’ So, that’s a little different.

“The pace has not slowed a bit. We’ve got the strategic enrollment management effort going on. We’ve done a lot with diversity and inclusion ... and we are doing a budget modernization process, looking at the way Kansas State University traditionally has budgeted and seeing what we might do to change that. Those are three

McLaughlin: “How do you think the racially charged events from last semester have affected the overall feeling of community on campus?”

Mason: “I’ve been so close to the search for our associate vice president of student life for multicultural student affairs,

Adrian Rodriguez. I co-chaired the search for our Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer. I worked with a group of many, many people, including student government, to put on the KSUnite event. I hope we are in a better position.

“I know it’s a tenuous situation, and the fact that any student may not feel safe and welcomed on this campus is a problem for me. I feel very badly about that and want to address that. And that’s any student: international student, different race or ethnicity students, someone with a different sexual orientation or religion.

“I think we have to be, as a

university, very open, accepting and respectful of differences, whatever those differences might be. We’ve done quite a bit at the central administrative level related to intercultural learning ... whether that be language or many other things, so that people can meet others and be careful of the language that they use to not do anything that might be offensive.

“I hope we are in a better place, but I almost turn that around and ask you: Help me, are we in a better place? What do you think we need yet to do?”

McLaughlin: “I don’t know. It feels like right now

we are in a better place, but it almost feels like we are just waiting for something else to happen. Personally for me, I can’t speak to racial tension on campus because all I do is cover it — I don’t experience it, and I don’t live it myself. Right

now, we seem like we are in a better place, so I guess that’s really all you can ask for.”

Men’s team slams Iowa State at home, 78-66 DEAUNDRA ALLEN THE COLLEGIAN

High octane, neck-to-neck, nail biting. That’s only three of the ways you can explain Saturday’s game in Bramlage Coliseum.

The Kansas State men’s basketball team hosted the Iowa State Cyclones for their second matchup of the season. The last time they met was back in December at Hilton Coliseum, where the Wildcats won 91-75.

Coming into the game, Iowa State was 4-9 in the Big 12 and coming off of a loss against the KU Jayhawks at home. The Cyclones struggled both offensively and defensively, which ultimately let the Jayhawks scoot away, 8377.

That held true for their game against the Wildcats.

Within the first 10 minutes of the game, Iowa State’s defense slipped multiple times.

In the first half, K-State was 14-31 from the field and 5-14 from the 3-point line. Iowa State was 12-27 from the field and 4-9 from the 3-point line.

Junior forward Dean Wade came into the game on fire from

the start. He ended the first half with 13 points and began to achieve his career high assists early in the game.

Even though junior guard Cartier Diarra got elbowed in the mouth and got a foul called on him for it, he was able to finish the game with eight points and help lead the Wildcats to victory.

With the game tied at 33-33 when halftime arrived, many fans became skeptical of what would happen in the second half. Iowa State was 0-7 on the road before Tuesday’s matchup.

From the start of the second half, the Wildcats put their best foot forward and came out of the gate on fire offensively. Iowa State’s defense could not contain Wade, junior forward Xavier Sneed or junior guard Barry Brown to save their lives.

When Iowa State began to catch up, K-State was able to hold its ground and jump ahead.

The Wildcats were not going down easy, and were able to keep the Cyclones at arm's length the entire second half.

Between dunking and shooting triples, the Wildcats could not be stopped. K-State was in complete control from the moment the ball was tossed inbounds.

As the last six minutes of the clock drained, K-State began shooting triples and dunking like it was a natural thing. The Wildcats were rolling with the thunder the entire game.

K-State ended the game shooting 51.7 percent (31-60) from the field and 40 percent (1025) from the 3-point line. Iowa State shot 44.6 percent (25-56) from the field and 36.8 percent (7-19) from the 3-point line.

While the score was tied three times during the game, the lead never changed.

For the first time since Jan. 13, K-State finally out-rebounded an opponent. Iowa State finished the game with 28 rebounds, while K-State finished with 35 rebounds. They had finally broken the nine-game streak.

“Boxing out and being on the right position on defense,” Wade said regarding the rebounds. “Just having a desire to go get them. We had a lot of balance today.”

Wade ended the game with 22 points and eight rebounds. He also ended the game with nine assists, achieving a new career high.

Iowa State head coach Steve Prohm praised Wade for his ef-

forts and stifling offense.

“He’s a good player,” Prohm said. “He’s really improved, he’s gotten to be a tremendous player.

He was very effective today.”

Prohm didn’t have a lot to say about Iowa State’s playing, especially since they are now 0-8 on the road.

“It’s just been inconsistent, that’s the number one word for this season,” Prohm said.

At the end of this game, Prohm was asked if he thinks K-State is an NCAA Tournament-ready team.

“Yeah, no question,” Prohm said.

K-State head coach Bruce Weber was very happy with how the team played, especially since they found their balance.

“I think that we play good when we have balance, that’s our strength,” Weber said. “We’re a good team. There’s no doubt about it.”

The Wildcats now look forward to take on the University of Texas Longhorns, who are 16-11 and just beat the No. 23 University of Oklahoma, 77-66.

The game will tip off at 8 p.m. in Bramlage Coliseum on Wednesday and can be viewed on ESPNU.

Logan Wassall | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Junior guard Kayla Goth scans the court for an open teammate against Texas Tech in Bramlage Coliseum on Feb. 7, 2018. The Wildcats defeated the Red Raiders with a final score of 83-69.

After a middling first half, the Kansas State women’s basketball team lost 87-70 to TCU in Fort Worth, Texas, on Saturday.

In the last meeting between these two teams in January, TCU won 6863. After this loss, K-State is now 13-13 overall and 5-10 in the Big 12.

The Wildcats went into the locker room at halftime down by 17 points, 4730.

Junior guard Kayla Goth and sophomore forward Peyton Williams combined for 20 of the team’s 30 points at halftime. Only three of nine attempted shots from beyond the arc fell for K-State. The Wildcats shot only 35 percent from the field at the half.

One bright spot for the K-State of-

fense came from consistency at the foul line where they made all nine of their free throws.

On the defensive end, the Horned Frogs came crashing down on the boards with 14 rebounds to K-State’s 10 at the half. TCU forced eight Wildcat turnovers and had five steals.

K-State could not find a way to win in the second half. The Horned Frogs shot 54 percent from the field while holding the Wildcats to 43 percent on 53 attempted shots.

K-State continued to turn the ball over and give possession right back to the Horned Frogs. TCU ended up forcing 12 turnovers total, but gave up 14 themselves.

K-State was hurt on the boards as they were out-rebounded 35-25 in this matchup.

If there’s a silver lining in this loss by the K-State women’s team, it’s their

free throws. The Wildcats were nearly perfect from the free throw line this game, making 18 out of 19 shots from the foul line.

The Wildcats also forced the Horned Frogs to turn the ball over in the second half more than double the number of times they did in the first half.

Goth ended the night with 23 points and seven assists. Williams had 21 points and nine rebounds.

Amy Okonkwo led TCU with 22 points and 10 rebounds, and was perfect from the line making six free throws.

Jordan Moore shot 70 percent from the field for TCU. K-State will return home for its next game against West Virginia University on Tuesday night. This game is scheduled for a 7 p.m. tip-off inside Bramlage Coliseum. Fans who are not able to attend this game can watch for free on ESPN3.

A Place to Call Home MASON continued from page

Rafael Garcia, editor-in-chief: “I think I kind of wonder, in terms of the K-State community ... what role should the student body, faculty, university and administration take in promoting the community? How do you think that responsibility should be divided up to build the K-State family or community?”

Mason: “Well, I start by saying I was very involved in the hiring of the two positions, but boy, it is not the responsibility of two individuals to make this happen. It is everybody. It is the individual that’s working in food service, it’s the faculty member, it’s the staff member that may greet a student coming into a departmental office, it’s you, it’s me and it needs to be that way.

“Some of us may have a lot of tools to utilize because we’ve gone through some sensitization. We’ve done some training, but we need to make that more globally available to people so that there is an expectation. I mean, we talk about the Principles of Community, but a recent faculty member contacted me and said she actually tried to

use the Principles of Community in her class and people had no idea what she was talking about. ... What can we do to just raise the awareness of being respectful to people, to valuing difference and seeing how we can learn from people and their differences?”

McLaughlin: “What do you think is the biggest problem facing students in 2018?”

Mason: “I’m very keenly aware that finances are issues for our student population, undergraduate or graduate. I think [the problem is] finding that balance of being able to attend school, not racking up a huge amount of debt that you are then going to have to pay off later and thinking very seriously about the education you are getting.”

McLaughlin: “I have a little bit of a follow-up question, but when you were in college, did you ever imagine that you’d be where you are today?”

Mason: “I imagined that I’d be on a university campus because I was pretty sure that I wanted to be a university professor. Did I imagine that I’d be a provost? No, because I had no idea what a provost was, and a lot of people don’t know what a provost is: the chief academic

officer of the university, the number two position under the president.

“I coordinate everything from budget prep to the libraries to presentations at the Board of Regents. It’s a very, very diverse position, and because it’s such a diverse position, it’s a little hard to categorize what it is.”

McLaughlin: “You’ve been a big driver of the K-State 2025 initiative, so can you explain a little bit of the progress and the end goal of where you want that to go?”

Mason: “Our former president and I were really two of the many people that pushed hard on K-State 2025, and the overall goal was to be a top 50 public research university by 2025. We started this effort in 2010, and here it is, 2018. ... We knew it was a big goal, a stretch goal, and if in 2025, when I am long retired, we look back and say, ‘Hey, are we a top 50 public research university now?’ we will be darn close, or certainly closer than we were in 2011, and I think that’s the whole thing of what K-State 2025 was about.”

A helping paw: Support animals help disabled students through college

Sabrina Cline | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Alyssa Arnsperger, sophomore in animal sciences and industry, snuggles with her dog Milo to destress after a long day.

KAITLYN VICKER THE COLLEGIAN

Many animals are trained to help their owners live with physical, mental and emotional disabilities, and Kansas State is committed to allowing students with disabilities to use support animals on campus, whether they're service dogs, emotional support cats or something in

between.

Unlike normal, everyday pets, K-State allows support animals to stay in university housing with their owners.

Mikaila Woods, resident assistant in Moore Hall and junior in microbiology, has an emotional support cat named Simba to help with her anxiety.

Woods said she was very transparent with her residents letting them know her cat is an emo-

tional support animal.

Emotional support animals, also called therapy animals, can be any sort of animal a person finds an emotional attachment to that helps them with their mental health, while a service animal can only be a dog or horse that is trained to do a specific task.

“I had Simba before becoming an RA and coming to college,” Woods said. “It got to

the point where I was struggling because he wasn’t here with me, and if I was having problems, I would go home and he would fix them. It’s like having another person with you, and while yes, they can’t talk or do anything for you, they can cuddle with you or be someone to talk to.”

Woods said Simba has helped her in many ways this past semester — ways that she didn’t even know were possible.

“I had the hardest semester of my entire life, and I don’t know if I could have made it without him,” Woods said. “I wish that more people had the ability to jump through all the hoops to get an emotional support animal. There would be a lot more emotional support animals at K-State if it was an easier process."

Karis Pitts, senior in musical theatre, previously lived in the dorms with an emotional support cat named Joanna. She is now living off-campus. Her cat helps with chronic anxiety as well as a panic disorder.

Pitts said living in a dorm with an animal became difficult as time went on. Her cat was happy to explore, but once the cat knew something was outside of Pitts' dorm room, she wanted out.

“Moving off-campus made things easier and harder in different ways,” Pitts said. “I had to get her licensed through a service animal company if I didn’t want to be charged pet

fees in my apartment. However, she is able to roam, look out of windows and the room doesn’t smell like a litter box.”

Kelsey Drewelow, RA in West Hall and junior in human development, has an emotional support dog named Edmond that is a pit bull mix.

Drewelow said the interactions Edmond has with other people help both herself and others. She said she often walks her dog around on campus and people often say say, "He just made my day."

“Having Edmond also makes me more approachable, which I like, especially being an RA,” Drewelow said. “I want to talk to people and make those connections with them.”

Drewelow said family is an important thing for her. She grew up in a military family that moved frequently, and while everything around her changed, her family was always there.

“When I started college and they moved away because of the military, that was really tough for me," Drewelow said.

"Having Edmond present is something I take comfort in, being able to touch him and to know that he’s living and breathing."

Drewelow said she has been diagnosed with anxiety, major depression and a panic disorder, and her emotional support dog gives her a sense of control.

“Since getting Edmond, I haven’t really had any panic

attacks, my depression has lessened and he comforts me when I’m anxious," Drewelow said.

"Whether that’s with me touching him, being there for him or taking care of him, I feel like I’m needed and wanted.”

Registering an emotional support animal requires a doctor’s diagnosis of a disability.

Once K-State is made aware of the situation, the student will have to fill out paperwork and attend meetings through the Student Access Center.

Both Woods and Drewelow said students should not expect to get an animal by filling out a piece of paper. A student will have to prove their need for an animal, and the student needs to be intentional about the process.

Woods said her disability might not require a wheelchair, but it is something she deals with that affects her daily life.

“Lots of people come to college and experience a ton of anxiety,” Pitts said. “A large number of college students came from homes with animals in which they received emotional support, whether they knew it or not. That's how I found out I needed an emotional support animal. I came from a home with snuggly cats. I left home, and my anxiety was unbearable.”

For more information on the steps to getting an emotional support animal, please visit the Student Access Center located in Holton Hall.

Q&A: Student body president Jack Ayres discusses student issues Compiled by Kaylie Mclaughlin Kaylie McLaughlin, assistant news editor: “Can you clarify some of the key aspects of the new Independent Student Organization and Dependent Student Organization policy and explain a little bit about why was this implemented?”

Jack Ayres, student body president and senior in chemical engineering: “The new policy was im-

plemented over the summer mainly to clarify the relationship that exists between the university and the organizations. While all organizations were previously on the same playing field in terms of the way we registered them and how they were seen in the eyes of the Office of Student Activities and Services, which used to exist, organizations are dramatically different from each other.

"Like a knitting club, that would be something that exists independent of university support and

independent of any department.

Engineering ambassadors, they’re with the College of Engineering with paid staff members to help advise the organization. ... What it comes down to is realizing that if an organization is not department-sponsored, it’s an independent student organization.”

McLaughlin: “Have there been any major issues in the implementation of the new student organization policy,

and have these issues been cleared up?”

Ayres: “I think the number one challenge has been the communication of it. There have been a lot of student organizations that are unsure about what the policy is, and I think that’s getting a lot better.

"Honestly, that was the challenge. Everybody got back in August, and they were like, ‘What’s the policy? Am I going to be a DSO or an ISO? As an ISO can I do this, and as a DSO can I do that?’ It was

all over the map. ... Students need to know what services are available at the center for student involvement for student organizations.”

McLaughlin: “How has the Student Governing Association promoted cultural competency on the Kansas State campus in this academic year?”

K-State baseball team loses to Chanticleers in tenth inning Sunday NATHAN ENSERRO THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State baseball team came up short in the tenth inning against the Coastal Car-

olina Chanticleers, losing 4-3 in Conway, South Carolina on Sunday.

The Chanticleers got out to a quick start, an RBI single to left field from senior first baseman Kevin Woodall Jr. scored

senior third baseman Seth Lancaster with two outs in the first inning.

After a 1-2-3 top of the second inning from the Wildcats, Coastal found two more runs.

With the bases loaded and

no one out, sophomore right fielder Cameron Pearcey singled into right field scoring junior left fielder Kieton Rivers. Second baseman sophomore Cory Wood grounded into a 6-4-3 double play but scored sopho-

more catcher Kyle Skeels.

K-State’s starting pitcher, senior Justin Heskett, induced a ground out to the shortstop to end the Chanticleers’ threat.

Heskett pitched six innings, giving up three runs on eight

hits. He recorded three strikeouts.
