Minute in My Shoes: A ski trip gone wrong changed this student’s spring semester plans by Sydney Hookstra It’s not every day that a Kansas State University student has to be ferried down a mountain in an emergency ski toboggan, but for Myka Dalton, sophomore in nutrition and health, that was the beginning of her road to recovery. Dalton tore her ACL and medial meniscus in her right leg on a ski trip to Breckenridge, Colorado, with a group of friends over winter break. Dalton said she and her friend Taylor Wells, sophomore in marketing and sales, were skiing down the mountain when they had to dodge a group of snowboarders. Wells’ pole clipped Dalton’s ski, resulting in her fall and injury. “I thought it was just a fall, but I turned around and when [Dalton] got up, we heard a loud pop,” Wells said. “So I called 911 and ski patrol came and wrapped her up like a burrito.” Dalton said it was hard for her to grasp the idea that she could actually be seriously hurt. “I’ve never been hurt before, never been injured,” Dalton said. “So I thought, ‘There is no way I did anything.’” As winter break came to an end and the spring semester started, Dalton had an MRI in Wichita that confirmed she had torn her ACL and medial meniscus. Dalton’s surgery was planned to take place over spring break, but before that could occur, she had to go to physical therapy at the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center in Manhattan for four weeks in order to get her full range of motion back.

The moms behind K-State men’s basketball

MOLLY HACKETT THE COLLEGIAN

For many mothers, watching their children play sports as they grow up is something that stops after high school graduation. But for these moms, it is something that has continued far past that as they watched their sons play basketball at Kansas State University. Four of K-State’s star players had their moms travel to San Jose, California, to watch them play in the NCAA Tournament. Senior forward Dean Wade was fortunate enough to play in his home state, allowing his parents to see almost all of his games. Dean’s mom, Trish Wade, said she has been especially thankful for this. “Well, that was his dream, and of course we’ve always been K-State [fans] ... and especially when he decided to make that journey, we were very excited,” Trish said. “To have him play in your own home state, that’s just something very special, and people get to share that love of a Kansas boy, which is really awesome. I’m very, very thankful and feel blessed that he had that opportunity.” For other moms, it has been more of a sacrifice. Erica Sneed, junior forward Xavier Sneed’s mom, said she has given up a lot to support her son. “I suffer from chronic migraines, but I go to every game,” Erica said. “I go to everything because even when he was younger, I would take him to every practice, every game,

People would ask, ‘How are you sitting here with a migraine with all of this noise?’ I’m like, ‘As a mom, there are just some things you have to do.’” Erica also added that she gives freely and willingly of herself because she wants Xavier to have more opportunities than she did at his age, and she said she is willing to do whatever it takes to support him. That support has not been achieved alone; it has taken all of these moms together to help support

not only their sons, but each other as well. LaTanya Stokes, senior guard Kamau Stokes’ mom, said Trish has been a huge factor in developing their little support group. “She is always texting us [and] keeping us motivated when we are not here,” LaTanya said. “She embraces our children as mothers would do, so we appreciate her for that.” LaTanya said being from Maryland makes it really hard for her to get to all of the games, but Kamau is

still very appreciative of her support. “Ah man, my family has been a big part of my success,” Kamau said. “Even getting me to college, they have been a big part of my success. Being able to fly out to games and seeing them in the stands means a lot to me.” While playing as a Wildcat is over for most of these guys, Tracia Richmond, senior guard Barry Brown’s mom, said the players “have built a special bond” and that the best part of the season has been “watching them grow.”

LETTER: A response to the left, in light of Christchurch attacks This letter to the editor was written by Benjamin Ristow, senior in history and vice president of the College Republicans at Kansas State University. If you would like to write a letter to the Collegian, send us an email at letters@kstatecollegian.com or visit kstatecollegian.com/ contact. On March 15, a white supremacist murdered 50 men, women and children at Muslim mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. In addition to other weapons, the terrorist used semi-automatic rifles. Within days of the attack, government officials in New Zealand had already begun the process of banning semi-automatic guns in their country. At the same time, left-wing politicians and pundits in America began calling for similar gun control measures here. It seemed obvious to them that the proper response to mass shootings is more gun control, and many felt that America should take a lesson from New Zealand. I beg to differ. It isn’t obvious that the proper response to mass shootings is more gun control. I’ve written before about common gun control myths. One of the biggest myths is that gun control is needed to stop large scale attacks, but this is simply false. In France, where gun ownership is prohibited without a hunting or shooting sport license, attackers simply ignore the law or find ways around it. In November 2015, terrorists in Paris, France, used illegal guns and explosives to carry out attacks, killing 130 people. In July 2016, a man in Nice, France, simply drove a truck into a crowd, killing 86. Each of these attacks killed more people than any singular U.S. mass shooting in history since record-keeping began in 1949. In America, where there are supposedly as many guns as there are people, the two deadliest large-scale terrorist attacks we’ve experienced, the 9/11 attacks and the Oklahoma City

bombing, involved the use of vehicles and explosives, not guns of any kind. Our deadliest school attack, the Bath School massacre in 1927, took the lives of 44 victims using explosives. Even our deadliest school shooting, the Virginia Tech shooting, involved the use of two semi-automatic handguns, not “assault weapons” or any kind of semi-automatic rifle. It seems obvious to me that banning certain kinds of guns, or even all guns, won’t stop massive terrorist attacks. Evil people who want to hurt the innocent will find other ways. Conversely, the innocents will be left defenseless. It is no coincidence that the vast majority of mass shootings take place in gun-free zones. Disarmed people make easy targets. Banning guns wouldn’t have even stopped the most recent terror attack in New Zealand. The terrorist specifically stated that he didn’t have to use firearms. In his manifesto, he wrote, “I could have chosen any weapons or means. A TATP-filled rental van. Household flour, a method of dispersion and an ignition source. A ballpeen hammer and a wooden shield. Gas, fire, vehicular attacks, plane attacks, any means were available. I had the will and I had the resources.” He chose firearms for a reason, which I will get to later, but for now, suffice it to say that banning guns won’t protect New Zealand or anywhere else from terrorist attacks. Another common myth is that more gun control is needed to reduce violent crime. This isn’t the case in America or the world at large. Just look at places like Chicago, which has a high gun violence rate despite the state of Illinois requiring a license or permit to buy any firearm. In London, where only rifles and shotguns are legal with a license, the current murder rate is higher than in New York City. The United Kingdom has even

placed a ban on certain kinds of knives in a futile attempt to curb violent crime without realizing that criminals don’t care about the law. How much further will they have to go before they realize that their efforts are in vain? While the UK has one of the lowest rates of gun homicide in the world, in an ironic twist of fate, they have rid their population of an effective means of self-defense by banning guns. In the United States, the vast majority of burglaries occur when no one is at home. Thieves generally aren’t keen to face armed resistance. However, in the UK, the majority of burglaries occur when the property is occupied. When the people have been disarmed, there isn’t much for the thieves to worry about. It also isn’t the case that New Zealand needs more gun control. New Zealand has around 5 million people, around 250,000 licensed gun owners and between 1.2 million and 1.5 million guns. There are generally less than 60 gun deaths per year, and less than 10 gun homicides per year. New Zealand doesn’t need more gun control to stop violent crime. Despite all their guns, they didn’t have much of a violent crime problem to begin with. So, if gun control fails to stop mass attacks, doesn’t reduce violent crime rates and leaves innocent people defenseless, why does the left keep pushing for it? I have my own theory. The “alt-right” gets a lot of media attention. Their racist and sometimes violent ideology is worth calling out (although we should perhaps be thoughtful about who we label “alt-right”). Despite the media’s fascination with the “alt-right,” they often overlook a much larger force in the toxic game of politics: the “control-left.”

April will be warmer with possible tornadoes, climatologist says NATALIE LEONARD THE COLLEGIAN

Archive Photo by George Walker | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Cars line up to enter the Kansas State Parking Garage as severe weather approaches Manhattan on April 24, 2016. Inclement weather is unfortunately as much a part of springtime as warmer temperatures are.

Not many students know about her, but there’s a woman on campus who can tell the future — the future of the weather, that is. Mary Knapp is the assistant state climatologist for Kansas and an associate agronomist at Kansas State University. Knapp has been a climatologist for the last thirty years, and she said she has some weather predictions for the spring. After the long winter, Knapp said Manhattan is ready for the heat. Based on the three-month outlook from the climate prediction center, Knapp said temperatures this March have been cooler than normal, but they are expected to be slightly warmer than average this April. March, April and May aren’t just home to warm weather, however. These months are also the prime time for tornados — some of the most severe weather in our region. Knapp’s advice to help the Manhattan community stay safe is to sign up for an alert system through their phones or email. With K-State Alerts, students and faculty can get warnings about various dangers, including severe weather.

Knapp also recommended reviewing a severe weather safety plan. Mohammad Almuslem, senior in electrical engineering, said when he first came to Kansas from Saudi Arabia, he didn’t know what a tornado was, let alone where to go when the sirens began wailing one day. “The first time I heard the siren, I didn’t know what it was,” Almuslem said. “I wasn’t sure where to go. I didn’t know where to take shelter.” Knapp advised that community members should know how to access the safest place in their residence to go during storms. This is typically the lowest level of the building and away from glass. “One of the biggest problems is people want to go out and visually confirm that there is a tornado,” Knapp said. “You don’t want to do that.” Knapp said Kansas is likely to have a higher chance of tornados this spring than last year due to an increase in moisture. There are also two other potentially deadly forms of severe weather on the radar for this spring: lightning and flash flooding. Knapp said to always remember to find shelter if thunder is in the area and to not drive through flooded roadways.

Dalton had surgery on March 7 in Wichita. “I was out for the count, and when I woke up, there was a drainage bag next to me and I was very foggy,” Dalton said. In the first week after surgery, Dalton was walking heel-to-toe with crutches. Dalton said she was very worried about coming back to K-State and trying to get around campus. Abby Eskina, sophomore in life sciences, has helped drive Dalton to and from classes. “On Mondays and Wednesdays, we have microbiology lecture,” Eskina said. “Class starts at 10:30 a.m. and we leave at 10:10 or 10:15 a.m. [Dalton] gives me her keys, and she has a handicap sign so we can park on campus.”

Eskina also has a microbiology lab with Dalton on Tuesday and Thursday. She said they are allowed to miss three labs this semester without penalty, but it is very crucial to be there. “For lecture, it doesn’t really matter all that much because we get the PowerPoint slides that we go over in class, but for lab you have to do the lab test and read the results,” Eskina said. “That may have been difficult to miss and catch up on.” Fortunately for Dalton, Eskina said there are two other students in their lab group who can all help catch Dalton up. Dalton reached out to the Office of Student Life to work with her on missing classes. Student life also contacted the Student Access Center to help her maneuver around campus. “You just call and give them your Wildcat ID and your name and they can pull

you up and see your classes, and then tell you the spots they will pick you up in,” Dalton said. Dalton said she has missed around three class periods in her philosophy class and one lab for microbiology. She said she was able to talk to her professors, and they have been very understanding about letting her make up old work. K-State has worked with Dalton, but she said it is easier to ask friends or classmates for rides to and from class. “Being in a sorority, I feel like there are people able to come and get me so I don’t have to solely rely on K-State,” Dalton said. Dalton said she has continued her physical therapy in Manhattan post-surgery, attending three times a week, and her physical therapist said she will be able to drive as soon as she is comfortable to do so.

Women’s History Month gallery Searching for hands-on media experience? on display in Union this week EMMA SNYDER

THE COLLEGIAN

The Union Program Council is hosting a pop-up gallery in the Student Union in celebration of Women’s History Month, a month dedicated to commemorating and empowering women and their contributions to American history. The pop-up gallery, planned

and designed by UPC’s multicultural committee, features photos and biographies of famous women from both America’s past and present, along with details of their lives and success. Some of the women featured in the gallery include former first lady Michelle Obama, talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and activist Tarana Burke, founder of the #MeToo movement. Women from Kansas State

University and the Manhattan community were also encouraged to submit their own short personal story and photograph to be on display in the gallery. Since 1988, Women’s History Month has been observed in the United States each year in March. The pop-up gallery is on display through Friday, March 29 in the Union from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Rolling on the river: A crash course guide to understanding rowing GABRIELLE ALBERTSON THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State rowing team is one of many teams under the banner of K-State Athletics, but not many sports fans know the ins and outs of the aquatic sport. For those who want to know more about rowing, here is a crash course. Rowers use long, often multi-person boats to compete

in river races called regattas. Boats typically carry either four or eight people, with eight-person boats captained by a leader called the coxswain. Rowers travel across the water using specialized oars called blades. To be successful at rowing, rowers need to be committed. It’s not just a sport for working your arms; it requires full body strength and lots of

hard work. “If you commit to this sport and are all in, it will be the hardest, but probably most rewarding thing you will ever do,” senior rower Abigail Dressler said. “If you decide to coast through, you will not make it. You have to be all in.”

OPINION: How to cook in college without embarrassing yourself KYLE HAMPEL

THE COLLEGIAN

One unfortunate realization you can have in college is knowing that, at some point, no matter how much you try to run from it, you will eventually have to cook a meal. It's not fair, but that's just the way it works. Your parents aren't around and you (probably) don't have the cash to buy every meal. What's a fella to do? I used to be in this exact situation as someone who thought he hated cooking, and I'm happy to say it's not as bad as it might seem. While everyone has different preferences and dietary needs, here are some basic guidelines to start cooking in college without embarrassing yourself.

1. BUY GENERIC BRANDS

The first step of cooking is buying ingredients, and don't let the advertising firms of the world cloud your judgment. Tons of studies from places like Tilburg University and the University of Chicago have shown that informed consumers, like restaurant owners and food manufacturers, buy generic brand ingredients. I say, if it's good enough for them, why not you? I'll concede that off-

brand Doritos never taste quite right, but that's snack food. When you're trying to make a decent meal for yourself and/or others, brands don't matter when you're combining ingredients. You might think there's a big difference between $5 chicken and $10 Premium Chicken™ in terms of quality, but they both come from the same bird, don't they? It's the same for other kinds of food, too. Delicious, nutritious foods are available for fair prices in every grocery store, no matter what the name on the box says.

2. FROZEN FOODS ARE FINE

I'm sure there are angry British chefs who would disagree with me on this, but for home cooking, frozen food is perfectly acceptable — and delicious! The argument against frozen food is that any ice crystals forming inside food will break up the internal structure, giving it a dryer flavor and texture when unfrozen. That's certainly a true fact of food, but here's the deal. The difference that freezing makes in food quality is hardly noticeable, especially to an untrained palette. Starting your culinary journey is as easy as buying a frozen entree and a side dish before following the

4. GET CREATIVE WITH A MICROWAVE

Alex Masson | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Backyard barbecues are an American staple, and impressing your friends with dazzling displays of food is easier than you’d think. instructions on the packaging. If you're just trying to make hamburgers for your friends on game day, frozen beef will do the job.

3. STICK WITH THE BASICS

Back when I was a silly freshman and I thought I hated cooking, my main argument against it was that cooking was too complicated — especially if you have to follow a recipe that includes a ton of ingredients, some of which you don't even like. Here's the secret, though: you don't have to follow an exact recipe. Imagine that! this is an image While American restaurants might insist a basic sandwich includes four

different kinds of vegetables piled on top of the meat, don't let that mess with your expectations. The more raw ingredients you try to include in a single dish, the more things you have to buy and keep fresh, which can be hell when you're dealing with vegetables that want to rot in your fridge if you don't find a way to use them in three days. Sticking to basic ingredients is not only good for your wallet, it also gives an amateur chef like yourself less to worry about so you can focus on perfectly cooking the ingredients you do have. If you're like me, you might even prefer the taste and texture of a simple dish, so it's a win-win.

REVIEW: ‘Us’ is a must-watch horror movie ABIGAIL COMPTON THE COLLEGIAN

Abigail Compton is a sophomore in fine arts. When going into “Us,” the latest horror film from "Get Out" director Jordan Peele, I had some skepticism. The horror genre has had many ups and downs through its history, but “Us” felt different.

“Us” gave me more than most horror movies I have seen. “Us” follows the four members of the Wilson family as they go on a family vacation. Adelaide Wilson, the mother, finds tension in the vacation area from her past, and tells her husband that she feels uneasy about the place. Adelaide’s suspicions come true, and the family must defend themselves against their worst fears.

The acting must be strong for a movie to feel authentic, and the acting very much followed through in "Us." Lupita Nyong'o’s performance as Adelaide Wilson was astounding to watch. Nyong'o shows an intense range of emotions through the movie, and I got lost in the story — in a good way. Nyong'o gave me the chills and made the entire immersive experience so much stronger.

Her acting was not the only strong performance in the movie, though; all the leading actors and actresses created the entire experience that “Us” gives you. The plot was another shining point in the movie, and it didn’t feel like any other horror movie I have seen before. I was excited and scared at each stage of the movie, and the pacing felt just right to keep me at the edge of my seat.

Microwaves are good for more than just warming up pizza rolls at 2 a.m. I often like to call microwaves a perfect side dish machine — microwaveable veggie bags and mashed potato cups are just two fantastic examples. Why spend an hour mashing your own potatoes when you can microwave a few cups, pour them into a bowl and make your guests just as happy? Microwaves are also good for certain entrees, too. Personal pizzas are something I will never get tired of, and all the breaded goodies you can imagine are just fine in a microwave, even if there's something special about putting them in the oven: chicken nuggets, barbecue wings, mozzarella sticks and so on. If your dish on the stove needs a little extra pizzazz, don't forget about your microwave. You can even use it at the same time as your stove for maximum efficiency.

5. SEASONING!

I don't have anything too creative to say here. Just add tons of seasoning to anything you make. Remember, it's much easier to have too little seasoning than it is to have too much. Pour it on and take a ride to Flavor Town. This movie was scary, and in large part I believe that the sound design had to do with that. After leaving the theater, my ears where still ringing with the sounds of the movie. All the sounds worked together to keep the suspense going the entire movie. It got very quiet at the times that felt right, and the music occasionally worked as a comedy tool or a release from all the tension. Overall, the sounds of “Us” will keep you feeling scared for days. Additionally, “Us” was full of visual metaphors. As an artist

6. DON'T SPREAD YOURSELF TOO THIN

To start, here's a quote from legendary martial artist Bruce Lee: "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times." I'm not advising you to go kick a hamburger or something, although that would be amazing. Rather, this is a metaphor for some sage advice: get good at cooking a few meals instead of floundering through 20 meals you don't understand. My friends and family love my barbecue cooking — not because I'm a prodigy, but because I've had tons of practice. I know exactly when to take the meat off the burner, I know what seasoning tastes best and I know what side dishes to use. Practice makes perfect, so if you keep at it on your favorite kinds of food, your meals will start to improve more than you ever thought possible.

and a big movie enthusiast, I felt like this movie had a lot to offer me. The color, the placement of objects and the objects themselves all felt significant in the movie. I wanted to learn more when I left the theater and turned to Google to find more information about what I had just seen. It was exciting to watch a horror movie and be thinking about it days after I watched it.

The number of strokes a rowing team is making in a given moment of the race, known as the stroke rate, is a crucial part of winning a regatta. The stroke rate should be at a high number when starting, but further along, it can decrease a little. There are four parts to a stroke: catch, drive, finish and recovery. The catch starts the stroke when the blade enters the water, the drive follows through

K-State Farmers Market to be held today from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. EMMA WITTER

THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State Farmers Market will be held this Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Bosco Plaza in front of the K-State Student Union. The K-State Farmers Market began in 2016 and has since been held several times a year on the last Wednesday of March, April, September and October. This Wednesday, the market will feature 20 K-State student

and faculty vendors selling handmade and homegrown goods. Jayna Ukrazhenko, fitness and wellness associate for recreational services, said there will be a lot of goods to be checked out and fun to be had at the farmers market. From organic eggs and baked goods to crocheted bracelets, Ukrazhenko said “you name it, and it’ll be there.” Wednesday’s forecast predicts temperatures in the 70s, and Ukrazhenko said the farmers market is a great time to “get outside and enjoy the

talents and creations of others.” The K-State Farmers Market is open to the Manhattan community and free to attend. In the event of rain, the market will be moved inside to the Union Courtyard. Archive Photo by Alex Shaw COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Students and faculty present plenty of fresh foods and hand-made goods at the K-State Farmers Market. The event is typically held in Bosco Plaza.
