Baseball hopes to keep energy Friday vs Baylor JARRETT WHITSON

Compiled by Kaylie Mclaughlin Bill Cosby has been convicted on all three counts of indecent assault in retrial. While a sentence hearing has not been scheduled yet, CNN reports that each count could result in 10 years in prison. Cosby, who did not testify in the trial, remains out on bail while awaiting sentencing. Tom Mesereau, Cosby’s lawyer, announced his plan to appeal the ruling. The guilty verdict comes approximately a year after the mistrial.

THE COLLEGIAN

A thrilling, walk-off finish saw the Kansas State baseball team get win number 18 of the season. K-State took on the Omaha Mavericks and defeated them on their home turf. It took 11 innings, but the Wildcats came out on top, 6-5. In the top of the sixth inning, senior right fielder Hanz Harker stepped up to bat for K-State. With two-outs on the board, he hit a single that scored junior catcher TK McWhertor and freshman second baseman Brett Owen. The Wildcats now led 5-2. Harker finished the night with two hits and two RBIs. Omaha challenged K-State’s lead, scoring two runs of its own in the bottom side of the sixth, making the score 5-4. That was the Wildcats’ lead going into the bottom of the ninth inning and they had an opportunity to shut it down and get the win. The Mavericks, however, would not go down without a fight. Omaha’s junior pitcher/ designated hitter Grant Suponchick hit a sacrifice fly to send in junior outfielder Thomas DeBonville to score the tying run. No more runs were scored and the game went into extra innings. The 10th inning was score-

It really was not any of their own doing as much as it was that of the opposing pitcher. Omaha’s sophomore pitcher Cam Fowler walked K-State freshman Dylan Watts. Then, Adam Caniglia, the Mavericks’ senior catcher, had three passed balls which allowed Watts to score the game-winning run.

Four Wildcats had multiple hits in the game. Sophomore shortstop Cam Thompson led them all with three hits. After defeating Omaha, K-State will finally return to the comfort of Tointon Family Stadium after playing eight straight games on the road. The Baylor Bears come to town for a three-game series, Friday through Sunday. Baylor has an overall record of 23-17

and is 6-9 in Big 12 play, sixth place in the conference. In their last game, the Bears run-ruled Texas State 17-5 in seven innings. That victory extended their win streak to seven games, so they will be eager to continue their recent success. After the walk-off win against Omaha, K-State is sitting at 18-23 on the season. They are 3-12 in the confer-

ence, sitting at last place. Last season, the Wildcats won the series against the Bears, 2-1. Start times for this weekend’s game are 6:30 p.m. Friday, 2 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. Sunday. All three games will stream live on ESPN3, with KMAN broadcasting games one and three, and the K-State Sports Radio Network broadcasting game two.

The parents of Otto Warmbier filed a lawsuit against North Korea on Thursday. The Washington Post reports that the suit comes just months after the 22-yearold returned to the United States and subsequently died from brain damage sustained while abroad. Warmbier was arrested in January of 2016 after stealing a propaganda poster and was sentenced to 15 years in a labor camp. The wrongful death suit filed against the North Korean government alleges that Warmbier died from excessive torture. The lawsuit comes amid scheduled negotiations between the United States, North Korea and South Korea. Mike Pompeo was confirmed as the secretary of state in a vote of 57-42. The Washington Post reports that the split vote is a reflection of the political scrutiny he could face in his time at the Department of State. Pompeo, a Kansas native, served as the director of the CIA for just over a year.

Becoming tobacco-free: Students discuss future smoking ban LUKE ERVIN

THE COLLEGIAN

After committing to a smoke-free campus, some Kansas State students said they still have questions about how the policy will be enforced. The policy, which is slated to go into affect June 1, will ban the use of all tobacco and smoking products on university grounds. Marisa Rodriguez, freshman in nutritional sciences, said she feels the idea of a smokefree campus is a good one, but said she's skeptical about how much the policy will actually change campus because en-

forcement of the policy would be difficult. "I think it’ll be a good advancement to our health, but smoking is like drinking. You can put a ban on it, but that doesn’t mean people will stop," Rodriguez said. Akansha Singh, sophomore in biology, said while she realizes people don't want to be inhaling smoke while walking to class, she said she thinks the university could designate specific smoking areas on campus. “They can assign places where smokers can smoke so the people who don’t want to inhale that air stay away from there, so everyone’s happy,"

Singh said. "The new policy is bothering so many people, it's a lot of wasted time in my opinion, walking around just to try to find a place to smoke." Caroline Fuss, junior in political science and former health and wellness director for the Student Governing Association, was involved in the process of making the campus smoke-free. Fuss said the momentum for a smoke-free campus started about two years ago and gained support from health organizations, environmental organizations and SGA as time progressed. "This is just another way K-State is trying to promote a

K-State works with donors in process of naming buildings KAITLYN VICKER THE COLLEGIAN

Nearly two years after the completion of its construction, the College of Business Administration Building remains nameless. Before a name can be given, Kansas State must clear several lines of red tape set in place by the KSU Foundation and the Kansas Board of Regents. John Morris, senior vice president of development at the KSU Foundation, said naming opportunities also fluctuate because they all depend on funding sources (whether it be private donors, state funding or

institutional funding) and how much the building costs. “When it’s named after a donor, it’s because they gave a gift that was substantial enough to warrant the naming opportunity,” Morris said. “Because, if it’s all private gifts toward a building, the foundation would need to have a gift of a substantial proportion of that funding to put a name to the gift.” Morris said there is potential for it to be named after a donor in the future. Before a potential name can be brought to the board, the university is tasked with undertaking “a thorough degree of due diligence to avoid commercial influence or conflict of

interest.” The criteria from the board regarding the naming of state university buildings states that the individual whose name is given to the building should “have made extraordinary contributions of a scholarly, professional, or public service nature related to the university’s mission.” Board policy also states that buildings shall not be named for sitting presidents, chancellors or board members.

healthy lifestyle for people on campus," Fuss said. Fuss also stressed that a lot of other campuses across Kansas have already moved to smoke-free policies and that a lot of the feedback of the pending policy has been mostly positive. In the discussions leading up to a decision smoke-free policy, Fuss said there was discussion of a designated area for smoking on campus, but in the end, that option was decided against. "We felt that for the policy to be the most effective, and for students to see the most positive results, that it would be beneficial for the campus to go entirely smoke-free," Fuss said. In addition to the smoking ban, Lafene Health Center will also revamp its cessation program in hopes of making a positive change in the health of K-State students.

State budget, student tension: 2017-18 SGA President Jack Ayers TRACE SALZBRENNER THE COLLEGIAN

In March of 2017, Jack Ayres, senior in chemical engineering, and his running mate Olivia Baalman, senior in computer science, won the vote and became K-State’s student body president and vice president. “Throughout our time in SGA, Olivia and I have had the opportunity to work and develop relationships with both students and administrators on campus,” Ayres said in a K-State Today release after his election. “Through these experiences, we have built connections with those who can affect change at K-State, and we look forward to working with those individuals to accomplish all our goals.” Having been student body president for his high school, Ayres said he thought he could try something familiar and applied for an internship with the Student Governing Association at K-State while he was

a freshman. However, he said he quickly learned the differences between his high school student council and SGA. “I soon learned that SGA was more about student advocacy and representing student voices,” Ayres said. Ayres said the more he became involved with SGA, the more he fell in love with the idea of helping students. He soon found himself elected as speaker of the student senate. It was during this year when Ayres became more involved with advocacy for student issues at the state government level and worked with the previous student body president on budget issues. At the end of his term, he made the choice to run for student body president. “It was really the work that was addicting to me,” Ayres said. “It is representing the students. It is exercising a voice that we at K-State have that is unique to us.” However, Ayres said he did not realize how much effect the voice of

Former student body president, Jack Ayres.

SGA would have in the following year. “You cannot overlook our challenges when it comes to inclusion and equity,” Ayres said, referring to a number of incidents that led to significant complaints about racial tension on campus last year including the hanging of racist posters and vandalism. Even though one incident, in which a man vandalized his own car with racial slurs, was found to be a hoax, the damage had already been done. “Our legacy at K-State is about family and supporting one another,” President Richard Myers wrote in a letter to K-State students and faculty. “That hasn’t changed. We cannot and will not allow the actions of a few detractors to attack our values or divide us.” This letter also announced KSUnite. The event was hosted by Student Body President Jack Ayres and Black Student Union President Darrell Reese Jr. in an attempt to

bring together all of the students on campus despite differences in race, gender identity or sexual orientation. “Jack wanted discussion for diversity and inclusion,” said Jordan Kiehl, senior in industrial engineering and the recently sworn in 201819 student body president. “He helped set that day up.” Other challenge Ayres inherited was facing state budget cuts to higher education. Ayres, along with others, traveled to the capitol and advocated for the importance of funding for universities in Kansas. He said that involved a lot of “providing legislatures with good data, talking to the right people and providing a consistent message.” Ayers recently accepted a job working under K-State alumnus and Lieutenant Governor of Kansas Tracey Mann. Then, in 2019, Ayres said he will be attending the University of Kansas’ School of Medicine, though he will still be wearing purple.

Professor shares her own search for vocation in lecture series RYLEE WALKER

THE COLLEGIAN

Christy Craft, associate professor in special education, counseling and student affairs, spoke about her search for a meaningful vocation on Thursday as part of the “What Matters to Me and Why?” speaker series. Craft characterizes her story with a sincere desire to experience authenticity and meaningfulness in life. Her story involves challenges she faced and opportunities she gained. Throughout her childhood, Craft’s family went to church three times a week and she said she disliked going. It wasn’t until Craft started her undergraduate career at Bradley University that she experienced faith and started getting involved with the church. Craft spoke about how she found a meaningful vocation by understanding and experiencing the intersection of three dimensions of her identity: family, work and faith. Craft’s story involved letting go of formative ideas and identities and embracing new ones. She explained how being a resident assistant and a hall director in college shaped her leadership and teaching style. As a result of these experiences, Craft brings practice-based knowledge of residence life, judicial affairs, student organizations, leadership development, Greek life and health awareness programming into the classroom. Craft has been at Kansas State since 2005. Her research focuses on issues of spirituality and religion in higher education; she also has a special interest in legal issues in the university setting. Makenzie Wipperman, K-State alumna interning with Christian Challenge, said she knows Craft from church and other meetings. “I’m trying to learn from her,” Wipperman said. “I think she has really good insight on how to combine faith and work.” Jessie Carr, sophomore in family studies and human services, said she too has struggled with finding what career she wants to pursue. She said that when she saw the title of this lecture, “My Search for a Meaningful Vocation,” she knew she needed to attend. “I just want to make the most impact and I feel like this will give me some guidance,” Carr said. “What Matters to Me and Why?” is an informal lunchtime series designed to build and strengthen bonds between people who teach, learn and work together daily and to foster understanding of how students embrace K-State’s Principles of Community. Presenters are encouraged to share a story of their journey, the lessons they have learned, the personal choices they have made and the core values they have adopted. The Staley School of Leadership Studies, the College of Education and the President’s Committee on Religion sponsor this series.

‘Unearthed’ art gallery in Union showcases effects of polluntants CONRAD KABUS THE COLLEGIAN

As part of Kansas State’s Green Week, artists presented “Unearthed: Art of and From the Earth” in the William T. Kemper Art Gallery on the first floor of the Student Union. Amber Berg, third-year stu-

dent in regional and community planning, helped organize the event by collecting pieces from local artists and students to exhibit in the gallery. “What I like about the pieces in the show is just that there’s a variety of subjects and a variety of materials,” Berg said. “But they are all sort of relate to the environment and different eco-

systems.” The exhibit is meant to present environmental action topics in non-traditional forms. Several of the art pieces take form in different types of media from paintings of oil spills to sculptures of animal rights issues, which highlight environmental activism. Bryanna Cook, junior in agricultural communication and

journalism, visited the gallery and said the exhibit impacted her ideas on social awareness as it relates to environmental issues. “One of the pieces was a goldfish in a plastic bottle, and the goldfish doesn’t belong there, just like our trash doesn’t belong on the sides of highways or in streams,” Cook said. “Each piece was very unique in a different way, and I think the artists were very passionate about what they drew because it hits home for them. It was just really cool to see what the artists could do and how the art reflected back on the environment.” Berg said the inception of the “Unearthed” art gallery began when she attended a conference about environmental issues

and visited a gallery that showed animal rights problems. “Part of the idea for this exhibit came from an artist from South Carolina who had some artwork related to animal rights,” Berg said. “And actually one of the pieces from her is in the exhibit.” Berg said she wanted to show that many of the pieces in the gallery have ugly subjects but could be displayed using beautiful artwork. “Artwork can take many different forms; it can be just about the environment that we occupy, it can be for advocacy, and it can be made out of whatever we want it to be, and that anyone can do artwork,” Berg said. “The artwork just kind of shows that

everyone has a little bit to contribute to environmentalism and caring for our earth.” The “Unearthed: Art of and From the Earth” exhibit will be on display in the K-State Union until next Friday, May 4. The exhibit is part of K-State Green Week, which has events today including tree planting at the southeast corner of Seaton Hall and a lecture on environmental education. Students for Environmental Action, the Office of Sustainability and Housing and Dining Services are sponsoring Green Week, which includes several other events such as Clean Up MHK, Sustainability Carnival and lectures on environmental action.

NAMING continued from page

“We recently named the resident hall after John Wefald who was a previous president on our campus,” said Cindy Bontrager, vice president for administration and finance. “We had to wait until he retired, then president Schultz decided to honor Wefald by giving that hall his name.” Once a potential name is decided upon by a dean or someone involved with the building’s construction, a request is sent to Bontrager, whose office facilitates approvals and permissions for new buildings on campus through the board. The board also has the

authority to rename or remove the name of any state university building. Possible reasons for removal of a name include, but are not limited to, circumstances causing damage to the reputation of the university, change of law regarding naming authority or if the building is razed or given over to a new

use.

Rowing to face KU in Dillons Sunflower Showdown on Saturday JULIA JORNS

THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State women’s rowing team will compete in its last competition before the Big 12 Championship when it travels to Kansas City, Kansas, Saturday. The last competition for the Wildcats was at the SIRA Championship in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, last weekend. The Wildcats had all five of their boats in the finals. Of the five events, the team won medals in four. “It was a great weekend,” head coach Patrick Sweeney said to K-State Sports. “We came away with some medals, which is

always a good thing for the team. We were also able to get six great sessions on the water, so the whole team was able to gain technique and a better feel for the boats. I am glad they were able to experience that this weekend.” K-State started the day in the time trials where the 2v8+ boat finished with the fastest time in the women’s JV8+ and lightweight varsity 8+. The Wildcats finished the race with a time of 6:14.060. The 3v8+ boat ended with a time of 6:23.921, which was good enough for fourth place. Both boats qualified for the semifinal that afternoon. In the semifinal round, both boats medaled, placing

first and second. The 2v8+ boat won the event with a time of 6:57.073 while the 3v8+ was close behind with a time of 7:10.293. In the finals, K-State raced against Wisconsin to win the event with its 2v8+ boat and claim silver with the 3v8+ boat. The 2v8+ boat finished the race in under seven minutes with a time of 6:57.975. A time of 7:10.256 was fast enough for the 3v8+ boat to pull past Wisconsin, claiming silver. In the women’s varsity 4+ finals, the 1v4+ boat finished behind Wisconsin with a time of 7:36.753. The 1v4+ crew claimed the top three performances in each of its races.

After finishing first in the semifinal race on Saturday, the 1v8+ fell into third place during the event finals to earn bronze with a time of 6:50.508. “It was good for the team to get out and see the venue and get a feel on the water,” Sweeney said to K-State Sports. “The team should feel a lot more comfortable with their surroundings here in a few weeks.” After the Dillons Sunflower Showdown, the Wildcats will race in the Big 12 Championship in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, on Milton Lake on May 12-13. The Wildcats and the Jayhawks race in the Dillons Sunflower Showdown at 11 a.m. on Saturday.

K-State Speech places No. 10 in nation, unholds winning legacy DEANNA SCHEFFLER THE COLLEGIAN

OOn April 9, the Kansas State Speech Team placed tenth in the nation. The team participated in the American Forensic Association National Individual Event Tournaments at Colorado College in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The K-State Speech Team sought out to place in the top 20 to continue their 23-time streak since 1992. Last year, the team had placed fourteenth in the nation. This year, it com-

peted against 62 schools from across the nation. John Rogers, sophomore in statistics and data analysis, said he was humbled by the success of the K-State Speech Team. “Any time someone puts hours of work in deserves success,” Rogers said. “It’s great to see that they represent me and Kansas State on a larger level, giving success to the K-State name.” The K-State Speech Team is directed and coached by Craig Brown, director of forensics and instructor of communication studies. Its assistant di-

rectors Darren Epping, Cassidy Stefka, Jacob Miller and Delta Wilson also provided help to the students with coaching and mentorship throughout the seasons. Brown said he is proud of what his students did to achieve tenth in the nation, but knows he couldn’t get them there without the dedication and commitment of his students. Brown said this isn’t an independent student activity, but it comes down to working together. “This high doesn’t come from one or two super stars,” Brown said. “This was some-

thing that everyone contributed or did something, if not we would be eleventh and that’s still great, but not top ten.” Logan Stacer, senior in communication studies, and Nathan Dowell, junior in history, led the K-State Speech Team. Stacer placed second in communication analysis, fifth in poetry interpretation, fourth in informative and finished as the seventh overall speaker in the nation. Dowell earned second place in extemporaneous during finals. Elliot Holcomb, senior in kinesiology, and Michelle

Briggs, senior in psychology, also advanced to the quarter-finals, finishing in the top 24 of their events. Jimmy Fisher, senior in entrepreneurship, said he was excited to hear of the team’s success. “It is exciting to see that K-State can excel in many areas but doesn’t get the recognition they deserve,” said Fisher. “As students who excel, I would love them to have the recognition and to have other fellow students realize that’s there’s more to excel at than sports.”

Brown also gives recognition of his hard-working students for putting in so many hours of work. “They work an hour with their coach and an hour outside of the coach for every event they partake in, many practicing for over 12 hours a week,” Brown said. Without the effort his students gave over the year and season, Brown said he believes that the K-State Speech Team wouldn’t be as strong as they are today.

Royal roots: The story of the university’s tie to the color purple DEANNA SCHEFFLER AARON WINTERMOTE THE COLLEGIAN

Royal purple, the name for K-State's official shade of purple, is represented all around campus. Because of the university tie, it is a color some grow up on, so it means much more than . The use of royal purple has carried tradition and memories here, setting K-State apart from the rest. Maria Vieyra, senior in psycholoogy, said royal purple means unity and represents the K-State family to her. "I think it is a strong and definitive color that sticks out compared to the normal uses of primary colors from other schools," said Vieyra. “It’s cool to see that K-State spirit can be represented through one color.” In the fall of 1896, K-State adopted the color through a committee made up of just three female seniors, and it remains the only official color of the university. White and silver have been commonly used as complementary colors officially. Gold and yellow were used with royal purple for a two-year period by former basketball coach Cotton Fitzsimmons, but the trend did not catch on after he left in 1970. “When I see students wearing purple around campus, I see

unity and the K-State family image,” said Morgan Ruhkamp, sophomore in business administration. Ruhkamp said she is happy to see the royal purple as a piece of unity. According to the K-State Brand Guide, all trademark images must be in black, white and royal purple. These can never indulge in colors other than those approved by the university. Purple has always held through the years, though. In

1978, the new royal purple which was known by printers as PMS 527, was slightly more blue than what was in use previously. According to David Stone, former professor of history, the color has "royal" in the title for a reason. "Purple dye was made from the murex, a kind of carnivorous sea snail," Stone said in a press release K-State in 2011. "Since each snail produced only a few drops of dye, purple was very expensive, and became associated

with royalty and power." Kohl Case, sophomore in business administration, said he never thought he would end up

at K-State, but now K-State traditions resonate with him. “Royal purple signifies the images K-State represents, in-

cluding those who currently wear [it], have worn [it] and those who will wear it in the future,” Case said.
