The inside scoop: Crafting ice cream at Call Hall ALEC MADRIGAL

THE COLLEGIAN
Since 1963, Call Hall has been producing dairy products from the fresh milk and cream taken from Kansas State’s own dairy cows, a herd that holds more than 200 Holstein cows today. Jared Parsons, dairy plant manager, said about 20 percent of the milk produced from these black-and-white cows stays on campus while the remainder is sold off to Dairy Farmers of America. Call Hall is part of the animal science department on campus and serves as both a fully functioning dairy production facility and a classroom for first-hand experience. The hall produces more than 45 different flavors of ice cream, but how does that sweet treat get from cow to creamy goodness? Parsons said the first step in making ice cream is with the whole milk brought in by trucks from the dairy farm, which is then pumped through the pasteurization machine at the plant. “This is what makes it safe, and then it is pumped into the holding tank,” Parsons said. From there, the cream gets separated. “We get 10 gallons of cream for every 100 gallons of whole milk that are ran through it," Parsons said. "So we end up with 90 gallons of skim and 10 gallons of cream." From the cream, two different types of mixes are produced: a white and a chocolate mix. “From those two mixes we can derive the 46 flavors on the book,” Parsons said. The mixes contain milk, cream, dry milk powder and two types of sugar and

From there, the mix is rapidly cooled to 50 degrees Fahrenheit and placed into 220-gallon storage tanks for a day. From there, the mixes are placed in individual 55-gallon tanks specific to their flavors in preparation for freezing. In the flavor tank, the necessary dyes and flavorings will be added. The mixes are frozen in a 1961 Cherry Burrell continuous ice cream freezer capable of pumping out 80 gallons of frozen ice cream per

hour. “It is original to the plant and has made every drop of Call Hall ice cream ever sold,” Parsons said. Soft serve ice cream comes from the machine, but in order to become the Call Hall ice cream on the shelves, it has to go through one last process: hardening. The ice cream comes out of the machine at 15 degrees Fahrenheit, but needs to be taken down to -20 degrees or -25 degrees, Parsons said. “Without the step of getting it down

to -20, it would become gritty very fast like your mom or your grandma’s homemade ice cream,” Parsons said. Call Hall contains a blast freezer which is maintained at -28 degrees Fahrenheit for the hardening of the ice cream. Jake Eckert, K-State alumnus and employee at Call Hall, said it takes about two days to complete the whole process of making the ice cream. Once hardened, the ice cream is ready to be sold to the dairy plant’s customers.

Fees committee mulls influence on college committees RACHEL HOGAN THE COLLEGIAN
The Student Governing Association’s Tuition Fees and Strategies Committee looked to the future during Tuesday’s meeting with an open discussion on the committee’s struggles over the past year and potential solutions for the next year. The committee focused primarily on its relationship with College Tuition Committees and how it can better voice its opinions on the merits of fees brought before them, as the members can only validate a CTC’s vote on the basis of adherence to processes. Ryan Kelly, speaker of the senate, future co-chair of TFSC
and junior in civil engineering, said he was hesitant to allow TFSC to interact too closely with CTCs, lest members take control of the conversation with the deans bringing forward fee proposals. “While the deans provide their sides, they’re the students that were selected to make that decision on behalf of other students,” Kelly said. “Who are we? Just another body of students that are more qualified than them?” However, other committee members said having TFSC be part of the conversation with deans and CTCs could initiate conversations and explore avenues of concerns that the CTC otherwise would not have considered.
“I feel like the only real way to expose the students of the college tuition committees to the concerns that TFSC has, and like the ‘other side’ as how we’re kind of framing this, is to have them present in this room when we’re discussing those things,” Miranda Moore, former academic affairs director and junior in communications studies, said. Stephen Kucera, student support director and graduate student in accounting, proposed a compromise: separate votes with joint conversation. This would allow CTCs to independently make decisions on fee proposals, while TFSC would have room to make their concerns known without being bound to their narrow role of determining whether the fee

proposal process was followed properly. Members of TFSC agreed that this would encourage critical thinking on the part of CTCs and prevent “groupthink,” which some saw in recent CTCs like that of the recently passed personal financial planning fee. “PFP is one of those programs that’s super small, it’s really close knit,” said Trent Kennedy, former federal relations director for SGA and senior in entrepreneurship. “I question the amount of groupthink going on between program leaders and students in the undergraduate degree program. ... If you’re getting your information from administrators or a group of administrators who are all faculty, and that’s your only source of information and perspective, then that’s guiding the way that you think about the fee.”

Bryan Samuel plans to diversify K-State in new administrative position ELI STRAHM
THE COLLEGIAN
Since he was selected as Kansas State’s new chief diversity and inclusion officer in December and officially starting his post in March, Bryan Samuel has been working to make K-State a more welcoming campus. Samuel grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee. Before his journey to K-State, Samuel was in a very similar role to the one he is in today, serving as the chief diversity officer at his alma mater, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. That is were he collected both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees before receiving his doctorate from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. “I have practical experience,” Samuel said. “I have a number of years of experience, both on-job and lived experience as a member of marginalized communities. It is that real experience that really helps.” While Samuel had heard interest from other places he could
have worked for, he said K-State stood out to him for many reasons, including KSUnite, the 2025 plan and the university being the best in the nation in several programs. “There were a lot of positive things around diversity and inclusion that made it a great opportunity for me to see what I could do to help it achieve its goals and objectives,” Samuel said. Michelle Broccolo, events coordinator for the president’s office, said she has been very impressed by Samuel in his short time here. “He is kind in his interactions with people and has been meeting with many individual groups these last few weeks,” Broccolo said. “There is lots of work to get done at K-State, and I think Dr. Samuel can lead KSU in a positive direction.” Mirta Chavez, director of multicultural programs for diversity and multicultural student affairs, said she thinks Samuel came to K-State with a wealth of experience as a leader of diversity and inclusion initiatives. “He truly cares about improv-
ing our efforts at K-State, and that in itself will make a positive impact,” Chavez said. “He is understanding the challenges that are faced by those of diverse backgrounds, and is currently reviewing programs and practices on how to further improve diversity efforts.” Samuel said diversity is about all individuals being valued, represented and recognized for their legitimate contributions without regard for what walk of life that they come from. “I kind of see diversity as a great big salad,” Samuel said. “It is the diversity of those ingredients that makes it great. When you put them all together, they become greater than just one part.” The biggest challenges Samuel said he has faced so far are learning the culture at K-State, meeting lots of new faces and cultivating new relationships with the people he works with. “You have to be able to identify the things that not only work well but things that we can improve on,” Samuel said. Samuel’s main priorities in-
clude enhancing the university’s reputation and having K-State emerge as a nationally known bastion of cultural understanding and competency. He said the university needs to make sure the faculty, staff and administration are as diverse as the public that they serve. “It goes back to the salad — the more diverse, the better,” Samuel said. “We need to look like the world we are preparing people to serve in.” Samuel said he also enjoys being able to go home to his wife and 8-year-old son. Students might catch Samuel spending time with them, playing golf, reading a book or watching sports. “I do lots of things to keep me grounded,” Samuel said. Though the future is bound to hold many challenges, Samuel thinks K-State will be wellequipped to handle those problems when the time comes. “I am really happy to be in this inaugural position for K-State and looking forward to some wonder years and a great time here,” Samuel said.

Universities in Kansas come together to create new diversity council MOLLY HACKETT THE COLLEGIAN
State schools throughout Kansas are coming together to create a state-wide diversity and inclusion committee to try to stand as a state-wide advocacy body for underrepresented students, faculty and staff. Ryan Kelly, speaker of the student senate and junior in civil engineering, served on the Students’ Advisory Committee Task Force on Diversity and Inclusion and had a hand in writing the proposal that established the Council of Chief Diversity Officers. “This whole school year, we have been compiling campus reports, going through all of the data and using it as the students’ voice,” Kelly said. “We are seeing trends in the data and it is telling us that this is what we want as
students and we are asking that the chief diversity officer make the changes happen.” While the proposal for the council has not yet been passed by the Kansas Board of Regents, the proposal will be introduced in May and possibly passed in June after getting approval from different organizations and offices on Kansas college campuses. If passed, it would require the current student body president and the chief diversity officer from each institution that is represented in the Kansas Board of Regents to serve as the voice of their university during council meetings and then be encouraged to report back to their university presidents. “This is a step in the right direction and it sets a foundation [so] later on they can decide how students will be allowed to interact more fully with the committee,” Kelly

Kansas State University students gather for the KSUnite Rally at the Anderson Hall lawn on Nov. 14, 2017. said. The goal of the committee would be, as stated in the proposal, to “consider matters effecting equity and inclusion at each university” as well as derive from past experiences and other notable information
in order to “foster more robust operations and consistency” with the expectations of all chief diversity officers across the country. Additionally, the council would serve as an “advocacy body” across the state for traditionally underrepre-
sented student populations. Rebecca Pedrosa, freshman in architecture, is a second generation K-State student from Puerto Rico following in the footsteps of her father. Pedrosa said she is a firm believer in the need for a diversity and inclusion committee. “We need to get to know the different cultures on campus and try to make more of a connection with the community,” Pedrosa said. “We also need to address the hate crimes and actively try to make a change.” Jack Ayres, former student body president and senior in chemical engineering, said the council would push the universities in Kansas to work more closely together to inspire cultural competency not only on campuses, but across the state. “There is a lot of collaboration that can happen
and we can learn about what other universities are doing to see what we can improve on,” Ayres said. Johari Snell, freshman in food science and member of the Black Student Union, said she feels as though the community of multicultural students has not been adequately supported in the past. “The multicultural students have been asking for a multicultural center for years, but it is just now starting to get a catalyst,” Snell said. Ayres said President Richard Myers’ and other university presidents’ support in the effort to start the council has been a huge help and it has been enjoyable to see the progress toward expanding on diversity and inclusion. “This is not just an issue at K-State,” Ayres said. “This is a state-wide issue and we need to come together to solve it.”

A capella group In-A-Chord hits high note with first CD recording TRISTAN ANDERSON THE COLLEGIAN
After finishing its last performance of the year, InA-Chord, a Kansas State a capella group, is recording its first CD. Abbie Lang, sophomore in communication sciences and disorders, is one of the group’s managers and a two-year In-A-Chord member. “I went to a summer camp for K-State choir and they performed,” Lang said. “One of my best friends, who is also a fellow manager, joined them the following year. So I decided that as soon as I graduated, I would audition for it.” In-A-Chord has been around at K-State for a decade. It is a unique group on campus as it is neither a departmental organization nor
a student-led organization, but it is technically a class. “In-A-Chord wasn’t looking for a person to do sound at first,” said Morgan McCabe, junior in music education and sound engineer for In-A-Chord. “I managed to get in after hearing about it from my friends who are in In-A-Chord and my interest in music and sound. Doing the tech is just as rewarding as performing.” Their practices are strict and routine. Every Tuesday and Thursday from 3 to 5:20 p.m. the group gets together, sets their equipment out and practices. They work together on a Google document and then discuss a song they want to try out after one is suggested. The music they perform is typically pop music ranging from today all the way back to the 1970s. Many fond memories
are created during these practice sessions, but Lang and McCabe have their own favorite moments. “Concerts are so fun,” Lang said. “We already know all the music and I think it’s just the best part of the year is when we perform.” “When the group learns a song for the first time, you get to see them connect to the music and grow together,” McCabe said. In-A-Chord is now in the process of making a CD and taking time from its last practices of the year to record. A release date is yet to be confirmed, but some students are looking forward to it, like Tori Everett, sophomore in marketing. “I had a friend from high school join, so I went to a concert,” Everett said. “I love a cappella music and they’re really good.”

THE COLLEGIAN
After placing third at the Kansas Relays over the weekend, the Kansas State track and field teams will travel to Des Moines, Iowa, to compete in the Drake Relays starting today and going through Sat-
urday. Both the men's and women's teams placed third overall at the Kansas Relays at Rock Chalk Park in Lawrence. The No. 11 women's team scored 164 points while the men scored 131 points, which was a season high. “We had a few individuals who performed well given
when they were in training, but we had quite a few not perform as they should,” director of track and field and cross country Cliff Rovelto said to K-State Sports. “There were some logistical issues and the weather wasn’t the greatest, but we should still give a better effort.” K-State competed against

Senior Colton Donahue ran the men’s steeplechase in 9:19.14. This time broke Donahue’s previous season-best in an event with a time of 9:35.37 that he set last week at the Texas Invitational. Shaelyn Ward, Ashley Petr and Taylor Latimer all placed in the top five of the women’s hammer throw. Both Ward and Petr set personal bests in the event. Ward won the event
with a throw of 56.77 meters, and Petr placed third with her throw of 54.71m. Latimer placed fourth in the women’s hammer throw, where she followed up with a personal record in winning the women’s shot put. She threw for 15.42m. Senior Lukas Koch and junior Kurt Lovenstein placed first and second in the men’s 1,500 meters. Koch ran the event in 3:51.83, and Lovenstein followed close behind with a time of 3:56.49.

The Kansas State baseball team will travel to the state of Nebraska tonight for the second time this season. The Wildcats’ opponents this time around: the Omaha Mavericks. It will be the second time the two teams have met this season. The first meeting came in Manhattan on March 27, a game that saw the Wildcats win 3-0. That game was a tight, defensive battle for much of the night. In the bottom of the eighth inning, freshman left fielder Dylan Watts stepped up to the plate for K-State with the bases loaded. Watts blasted a single up the middle, sending two runners in. Watts himself would later be sent home to give K-State the 3-0 lead that it held for the rest of the game. In their 15 games since defeating the Mavericks nearly a month ago, the Wildcats have gone 4-11. K-State lost a series to West Virginia just this weekend, 2-1. In the first game of the series against the Mountaineers, the Wildcats lost a 5-3 lead after sixand-a-half innings before giving up five unanswered runs to fall 8-5. Game two saw the Mountaineers win 6-0, but K-State made a

Body Project helps students with body image concerns LOGAN MAXWELL THE COLLEGIAN
Promoting positive body images for men and women to reduce the risk of eating disorders in college students is the stated goal for the Body Project, a program implemented at Kansas State this year. The Body Project Collaborative is a nationally recognized program that is intended to help reduce body dissatisfaction in college students, which is a risk factor for developing eating disorders. This year, the Body Project featured two sessions that consisted of discussions, activities and exercises led by peer leaders. The sessions were intended to be a place for discussing concerns about body image and showing participants that they are not alone. All discussions were confidential and groups were limited to 10 people to
help participants be comfortable. After this semester, the Body Project will be undergoing some changes to enhance the program. Dianna Schalles, coordinator of nutrition counseling and co-chair of the Body Project, said there is research proving that the program reduces bodily dissatisfaction in its participants. “However, our greatest challenge has been getting students to follow through and show up for workshops once they sign up,” Schalles said. After bringing this to the national coordinators’ attention, the campus organization is now looking into moving the program toward less time-intensive workshops that will still deliver benefits. Schalles said she would also like to expand the program to benefit as many students as possible. Since college students are most at-risk for developing eating disorders, Schalles said the
Body Project is very important to her. “Having a nationally acclaimed, evidence-based program such as the Body Project on campus to assist our students is something that needs to be offered at K-State,” Schalles said. “For thousands of college students, the daily struggle with the mirror or the scale can heighten feelings of depression, isolation and low self-esteem. This can increase the likelihood of developing an eating disorder.” Richelle Dadian, psychology intern for the Counseling Services and peer leader for the Body Project, said eating disorders can be detrimental to a student's health and relationships. “My biggest piece of advice for those struggling with body image is to use self-compassion," Dadian said. "We already have a hard time with all the negative messages we get, so it’s important to be positive with ourselves." Kate Bowen, senior in ki-
nesiology and Body Project peer leader, said body image issues are common among young adults, especially with the amount of media they consume daily. “Body positivity issues and dangerous cultural standards of beauty or attractiveness are something I feel very strongly about,” Bowen said. “I have personally experienced these pressures and I want to empower and equip women and men to fight these societal influences and remind them to love their unique bodies." If you or anyone you know is struggling with their body image or an eating disorder, please contact the National Eating Disorders Association helpline at 800-931-2237 or the K-State Counseling Services at 785-5326927.

'Chef Doug' brings the heat to Kramer Dining Center’s kitchen

THE COLLEGIAN
Ever since Douglas Medeiros was a child, he enjoyed making people
happy with his cooking. Now better known at Kramer Dining Center as "Chef Doug," the 29-year-old has been showing his passion to hungry students as the dining center's executive chef.
Medeiros said his love for cooking started from helping his parents in the kitchen, watching celebrity chefs on TV and wanting to be like them. "My parents would go to work during the summer, they'd come home, and I'd cook something," Medeiros said. "I always enjoyed making food and making people happy." Medeiros started working for a pizza shop when he was 15, and his professional cooking career took off from there. Medeiros attended the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, where he received his bachelor's degree in hospitality and restaurant management. After that, he had multiple jobs in the cooking industry. Medeiros said he was led to Kansas State when his wife got into veterinary school. After a stint at Radina's Bakehouse, he joined Kramer Dining Center as a recipe and development chef, and he is now the dining center's executive chef. Missy Schrader, unit director at Kramer, said Medeiros was instrumental in the opening of the dining
center after its recent renovations. "When we opened the building, we relied heavily on him to help us learn the new equipment that was brand new," Schrader said. "Without him, opening the building would have been very difficult." Schrader said the use of vegetables is one of the biggest things she's learned from Medeiros, such as how to feature them as the center of a plate item and how to prepare them in unique ways. Schrader said Medeiros is very passionate about his work and very supportive of others in the workplace. "[He is] always willing to do whatever is needed as far as covering shifts," Schrader said. "He is just a really good team member." For Chelsea Paul, graduate student in hospitality management, working with Medeiros has been extremely helpful. "Every day we work together, he tells me something new about management and how to lead and manage people," Paul said. Paul said one aspect of Medeiros'
personality that sticks out is his ability to crack jokes and make the working atmosphere light and fun. Even while getting the job done, Paul said, Medeiros doesn’t take things too seriously, which makes him good to work with. Medeiros said he has considered moving into administration and doing food and beverage management, but being a chef is where he wants to be. Medeiros also said he has dreams of spreading his passion to the next generation. "My friend talked about opening a cooking school for underprivileged kids," Medeiros said. "I would love to support him in that dream and be able to help teach kids how to cook." Medeiros encouraged students interested in the food industry to get a job at a restaurant and see how they like it. He said loving your job is key to a happy life. "You've got to love what you do," Medeiros said. "You have to enjoy and have a passion for it. You're better off being happy and enjoying what you're doing."
