Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission addresses SGA AUSTIN CAMPBELL THE COLLEGIAN

The Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission addressed the Kansas State Student Governing Association Thursday night to discuss their new master plan. The project would include new renovation to the Peters Recreation Complex, the outdoor field complex, the aquatic center, as well as moving the student health services and Counseling Services to the Rec over time. A survey was sent out by the Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission in hopes to get a better understanding of what students felt they need to be at their healthiest. A consulting team was also hired to evaluate what it is that students

The U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights opened the fifth investigation on how K-State handles off-campus sexual assault reports on March 27.

want to see added to this plan to improve their well-being. “We have continued to plan this project knowing there will be a lot of different components to consider,” said Andy Hurtig, senior in accounting, chair of the Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission and former student body president. “It’s important to keep in mind that along with financial barriers to the project, there will also be operational components being implemented too.” Along with the changes addressed in the project plans, the planning committee would also like to add more landscape to the entire facility. In addition, a drive-through pharmacy would be placed on the north side of the Rec to better utilize the space. New bus stops will also be added to the facility for

students needing more transportation options. Placing the Lafene Health Center and the Counseling Services in the Rec would be the final piece to the project. “The idea of this whole project is to place counseling, health and wellness services all in one place,” said Clint Menefee, member of the Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission. “It’s important that we integrate all these different services so that students know where they need to go to receive the help they need.” Menefee and his team worked closely with Lafene Health Center and the Counseling Services to get the components and resources needed for students to be healthy and well. The planning committee encouraged the senate to run with the plan to help the

student body become healthy young adults. “We are working hard to make sure that all existing resources and facilities are being put to use as to be as efficient as possible,” said Chuck Smith, member of the Health and Wellness Master Planning Commission.

IN OTHER ACTION

The Student Senate voted on resolution 17/18/5, which addressed disapproval to an increase in surcharges to the College of Engineering. The resolution was passed unanimously and now awaits President Richard Myers action on the surcharge decisions. Jack Ayers, student body president and junior in chemical engineering, said to members of the senate that this is an important matter to acknowledge.

By the numbers: 143 majors across 7 colleges for undergraduates BRIGETTE KLOEPPNER THE COLLEGIAN

Kansas State is home to 143 undergraduate degree plans and majors, according to the Office of the Registrar. With instruction for each of these majors spread across campus in classrooms, laboratories and other study spaces, K-State served 16,249 undergraduate students during the spring 2017 semester. Seven colleges comprise the university’s academic structure, spread across campus from the College of Arts and Sciences’s home in Calvin Hall to the College of Agriculture’s home in Waters Hall. The College of Arts and Sciences ranks first in terms of undergraduate enrollment, with 4,709 students enrolled in one of its many majors. Biology majors account for 463 of Arts and Sciences

students, or about 10 percent. Mass communications majors come in second within the college, totaling 280 students. Additionally, 694 students are listed as open option, meaning they have not declared a specific major. The College of Engineering ranks second with 3,424 students enrolled. There are 810 students enrolled in mechanical engineering, 497 in computer science and 320 in chemical engineering. Within the College of Business Administration — the third largest college — there are 2,316 students. The college’s largest major, general business, has 1,031 students, making it the most popular major university-wide as well. Marketing and management come in as the second and third most prevalent majors within the college, with 345 and 294 students, respectively. Additionally, the College

of Agriculture ranks fourth with 2,271 students and the College of Human Ecology fifth, enrolling 2,035 students. Within the College of Agriculture, 912 students are enrolled in animal sciences and industry, making it the college’s largest major. In the College of Human Ecology, kinesiology sees the largest major enrollment, with 551 students. “I really like dietetics because it’s very applicable to everyday life,” said Abbi Collins, sophomore in dietetics. “Food affects the body in many different ways, and I see situations every day where I’m reminded how I (will) hopefully help people through my career someday.” Finally, the College of Education comes in sixth with 1,048 undergraduate students, and the College of Architecture ranks seventh with 415 individuals in the program.

“I think the most beneficial part about the elementary education major is the requirement of in-classroom experience throughout your four years,” said Chloe Reiss,

freshman in elementary education. “It really helps to give you a background in the field and prepares you for your own classroom after graduation.”

A small technology department not tied to a specific college exists as well on K-State’s Manhattan campus, enrolling 31 students total.

Study: 9 out of 10 highest-paid college majors are male dominated, results reflected at K-State MACY DAVIS

THE COLLEGIAN

Researchers from institutions including the Pew Research Center, Stanford and Harvard have established a gender pay gap, but a recent study from Glassdoor Economic Research has built on that research, establishing what they call a “pipeline problem” beginning at college majors. In the study, the researchers claim the gender pay gap is caused by a “pipeline problem,” which argues that men and women follow a pipeline into different jobs. The study states nine of the 10 highest-paid college majors are male dominated, while six out of the 10 lowest-paid college majors are female dom-

inated. According to the study, majors with the highest gender pay gaps are healthcare administration, mathematics and biology. Majors that lead to the lowest gender pay gaps are architecture, music and social work. The institute cites societal pressure and norms as a potential reason for women to choose different majors than men, concluding that “choice of college major can have a dramatic impact on jobs and pay later on.”

Parking Operations Council holds open forum, discusses parking rules

MARY MARSH

THE COLLEGIAN

In an attempt to make campus parking rules and regulations more clear and concise, the Parking Operations Council held an open forum to discuss parking regulation change. On Thursday, the council discussed parking regulation changes with about 35 people — mostly Kansas State faculty — present. The council addressed questions and concerns regarding the changes in the parking regulations. One rule discussed in-

cluded parking citations and how it is the responsibility of whomever is the permit holder, regardless of who was driving the vehicle. Visitor parking was also discussed, as many times visitors do not know they need a permit to park on campus and can find themselves with a parking citation. Visitors are given two chances in a calendar year to send their “no valid permit/authorization” citation to parking services, where the initial fee of $50 is lowered to the normal day permit fee of only $5. The two-time limit is in response to people claiming they are

visitors and abusing the system. Gene Barnes, the recorder for the Parking Operations Council, said the goal of having the annual meeting was to talk over potential changes to the regulations and identify the problems based on incidents that have occurred throughout the year. Once the council decides what the real issues are, they present those to upper leadership who then determine whether or not to take action on these changes. One of the changes under consideration is clarifying the wording of some parking rules. Rule II. G. 1.a will now

read “an owner of a permit that is valid but not displayed or not displayed properly may be given a reduced penalty when parked legally otherwise.” “I feel these changes are needed because something occurred that made us want to clarify things,” Barnes said. John Wolf, parking council representative, also mentioned that clarity was a reason for these changes. “We wanted this to be more uniform,” Wolf said. “Basically just to clear them up a little more, we know this has been going on. (These changes) are just so people know this is out there. People did not realize they could have only had to pay a lower amount.”

This issue of lack of clarity is something that Ellie Nicholson, junior in hospitality management, knows all too well. At the start of the semester, Nicholson went to her car that was parked in one of the residential hall’s student parking lots to find a yellow tag stuck to her windshield. Shocked, she saw it was for lack of a parking permit, as her permit had fallen from her rear view mirror and was under her seat. “I was so worried,” Nicholson said. “I did not know what to do, so I just figured I would go talk to the Parking Services on campus to try and sort this out. I have a permit; I had been parking there the whole year. It was just an accident.”

When Nicholson got to Parking Services, located in the parking garage, she walked out the building only having to pay $5. “I am so glad I just decided to go,” Nicholson said. “Having to pay $50 would have been ridiculous. Not to mention my parents would not have been too thrilled either.” The updated rules and regulations also state that K-State parking permits do not apply to parking meters. The rules of free parking on weekends do not apply when parked at meters. None of these changes will equate to a change in price for parking permits. There will be no increase in the price of permits next year.

Bluestem Bistro renovates for new look, more space, focus on customer service AUSTIN CAMPBELL THE COLLEGIAN

Bluestem Bistro finished remodeling its location last month, and many of the staff members are happy about it with business picking up and sales rising. “It’s really brought a new dynamic to the place,” said Vicki Sears, Bluestem Bistro manager. “The remodel not only freshened the place up, but it’s brought my fellow staff members closer and really helped the teamwork aspect of things.” With a new look and more open space, the staff at Bluestem Bistro can take more time focusing on their customers

and the dynamic of staff teamwork. “The new bar area would have to be my favorite part of the remodel,” Sears said. Becky Buckner, a Bluestem Bistro employee and sophomore in secondary education, said the renovation includes a new bar that is more accessible for people to enjoy their drinks. “The seating in the place is a lot more open now and gives the customers more options for lounging,” Buckner said. “Before, the seating was okay ... now with the new layout, it seems more spacious.” Many students like to come in for coffee and lounge while they do their homework, though space was always an issue, Buckner said.

“I love the new renovation and seating, although I do miss the couch and the chalk table that was by the door,” said Rebekah Mally, junior in apparel and textiles. Mally is a regular at the coffee shop, enjoying more than just the menu. “I come to Bluestem Bistro not for the great coffee and food, but for the people that come here,” Mally said. “The people here are unique, and I enjoy meeting and having conversations with them.” Mally also shared that a benefit of the new bar area is being able to talk to the employees as they are working. This has the potential to improve employee and customer relations while the coffee brews.

for kids to learn about nature at an early age,” Meredith said. “I really want them to learn how to enjoy and appreciate nature so that they can grow up and become stewards of the environment.” Meredith most recently received her interpreter-guide certification, where she learned practical skills in delivering quality environmental education lessons. Dayton Allen, senior in park management and conservation and a friend of Meredith’s, said he most enjoyed his methods of interpretation class. “It was basically an introduction on how to give guides and presentations,” Allen said. “That class really got me out of my comfort zone, which I think is a good thing.” see page

Founders Hill residents speak out about support in fire’s aftermath MASON VOTH

THE COLLEGIAN

Six months have passed since an October fire at the Founders Hill Apartments in Manhattan, and the residents affected by the fire continue to deal with problems caused by the disaster. In the aftermath, even those not directly affected by the fire have found ways to help those in need. Out of the 91 residents affected by the fire, 24 were students, which left many without the option of turning to Kansas State for help. Kristen Noll, First Management Inc.’s district manager, said in an email statement that the non-KSU students and staff were given help by First Management Inc., and “others were placed in local hotels. While we were not bound to do this ... First Management Inc. stepped in to make those arrangements during crisis.” Olive Garden later provided a large meal at Founders Hill for those affected, and residents were also given gift cards donated by HD Supply, Noll said.

ASSISTANCE FROM THE OFFICE OF STUDENT LIFE

The Office of Student Life immediately stepped in, giving the displaced students rooms at West Hall and a card for meals. Both were good for one week, but Heather Reed, assistant vice president and director of student life, said in some cases they had been willing to work with the students and give them more time in the residence halls if needed. One of those students who found himself residing in West Hall for a week was Dakota Troyer, sophomore in agricultural education, who said the fire was “a blessing and a curse.” The curse is easy to see, but for Troyer, the blessing just reaffirmed what K-State already preaches. “I saw love sweep through the community,” Troyer said. Troyer said after one week, they were able to go back, sign a waiver and had four hours to

go through their apartments and get what they needed or anything that was not damaged. He wished the residents were allowed more help, as the only people allowed inside were the residents and parents of those residents. Half of the residents of Building G at Founders Hill chose to relocate to sister properties, Chase Manhattan Apartments and Campus East Apartments, which are also owned by First Management Inc. Those who took that route were given one free first month and their security deposit transferred. Troyer and his roommate moved to the Chase Manhattan Apartments. All students displaced by the fire have found new housing, either staying in the K-State residence halls or, like Troyer and many others, switched to a sister property. First Management Inc. also gave the residents the option of a release from their rental contract and reimbursement for rent that may have been paid for the final days of the month.

ADDITIONAL HELP

Also during the time of relocation for residents, Founders Hill made them aware of places they could go for additional help. One of those places was the Red Cross, which gave out $50 gift cards. Troyer said these were helpful during the week where they were not allowed to go into their room at Founders Hill.

SAFE AT K-STATE

During that one week away from home, Reed and the Office of Student Life knew how difficult it would be for the students. “We told them, if you feel you are not getting appropriate leeway, come speak with us again,” Reed said. It never came to that and all students affected spoke of how helpful their instructors were. Reed said that it was almost more “amazing” that no student involved with the fire had to leave K-State. First Management’s Noll said she had never dealt with a situation like this in Manhattan, but for Reed, she remembered

Alanud Alanazi | THE COLLEGIAN

Two men work at the Founders Hill Apartments on Thursday. the 2013 Lee Crest Apartments fire that resulted from arson. Reed was thankful that this time it did not appear to be the result of someone knowingly starting the blaze. The conclusion made by officials from the Office of the State Fire Marshal, Junction City Fire Department, Manhattan Fire Department and the Fort Riley Fire Department was improper disposal of smoking materials.

SUPPORT FROM THE K-STATE FAMILY

Troyer spent some time the day of the fire at Radina’s Coffeehouse and Roastery, where many people heard their story and offered to buy them food and whatever else they needed. Troyer was taken aback by the support he and his fellow residents received. “We truly are a family that cares for one another,” Troyer said. Reed also reaffirmed Troyer’s family comments. “These are examples of when bad things happen, we can come together as the K-State family.” At the Office of Student Life, Reed and her colleagues saw the “family” from everywhere on campus, with different organizations immediately asking for ways to help. One of the organizations that offered help to students was the College of Agriculture, which saw seven of their students affected by the fire.

One of the biggest issues to come out of the fire was that one third of students involved were international students, whose biggest concern quickly turned to their visas inside the building. K-State was able to help and fix that problem as quickly as pos-

sible. Troyer said the agriculture college used some of its emergency funds to help students involved. “We were given a very generous amount,” Troyer said. That amount was helpful for Troyer, who said he lost almost 70 percent of his belongings due to smoke and water damage. He was also appreciative of his Ag Ed Club, which donated a new laptop to him. Of the things that did survive the fire for Troyer, one was the 60-inch TV that was written about in the initial Collegian story. Troyer and Reed both noted the support the residents were given at the time. On top of the multiple free sessions each student gets per year at K-State Counseling Services, the Office of Student Life covered the fees for any additional sessions needed by the victims of the fire. Troyer’s mind wasn’t just on

his own during the fire, but on a family that lived above him. “I knew a family above us who had a little boy,” Troyer said. “He was a football player. I can’t imagine how they got through this without the help of K-State.” Troyer also said that the fire “definitely did not help anyone who suffers from mental illnesses.” His thoughts continued to be with those who struggled with mental illness and those who weren’t lucky enough to have the help and support of K-State and different friends and family. First Management Inc. is already going through the rebuilding stages for Founders Hill Apartments. “The building is currently under reconstruction ... it is scheduled to be opened again this fall,” Noll said. First Management Inc. is currently taking reservations for Building G, with only a few apartments left.

Students weigh in on recommended study hours within individual colleges CATALINA DONNELLY-VAZQUEZ THE COLLEGIAN

Although Kansas State does not have a universally recommended amount of study hours, the individual colleges within K-State have their own guidelines on how students may study best. “I would say that for each credit hour that I am in, I would have to study at least

three hours outside of class,” said Samantha Wright, sophomore in education. Wright said if she does not follow that guideline — which she said is the amount of studying the College of Education recommends — her grades will slip at times, so she tries her hardest to study for every credit hour she is in. However, other colleges may recommend more studying. Isabella Cesarone, soph-

omore in chemical engineering, said engineering majors are told they should study five hours for each credit hour they are in. “It is really more like seven hours when I have a test that week, but on just a normal week, it is roughly five hours,” Cesarone said. Nicole Sanchez, sophomore in advertising, said study hours vary for each class that she needs to study for, and that some classes

do not necessarily require students to study the recommended amount. Some professors do not always tell students how many hours to study outside of class for major-focused courses. “I have never been told how many hours outside of class I should study for each class that I am in,” said Lauren Goralczyk, junior in finance. “It is more of however long it takes me to get the work done I have, or however

GAP | Gender pay gap applies to majors with lack of specific careers, study says continued from page

“I came from a small town in western Kansas,” said Andrew Wood, graduate student in architecture. “I thought that the whole pay gap was people complaining for the sake of complaining. I think it’s completely dumb that it actually exists.” Beyond the presence of the gender pay gap, K-State finds similar statistics regarding male domination within high-paying fields. Statistics from the university registrar’s office show that in the fall of 2016, the College of Engineering had 3,176 male students, compared to 674 female students. The College of Education had 264 male students, compared to 886 female students. Elise Gallant, sophomore in mathematics and secondary education, said she experienced the gender divide when she was still a student in the College of Engineering. “When I went to the career fair my freshman year I felt out of place,” Gallant said. “I feel like I had to work harder to look as good as the males in my same position.” Glassdoor used salary data collected from individuals five years post-graduation in order to determine gender pay gap among specific majors. However, K-State only collects salary information for those immediately following graduation for one year, with a low number of graduates reporting their salaries. One item that contributes to

the gender pay gap within specific majors is how concentrated the major is when it moves into the job field, according to the institute. For example, nursing and architecture majors hold similar jobs due to the technical nature of those degrees, whereas degrees in mathematics and English are less concentrated due to the highly variable nature of the jobs available to majors in those areas. K-State’s Career Center shows similar findings of concentration for those who graduate from the College of Architecture, Planning and Design. That lack of concentration in mathematics is also present, as the Career Center shows that K-State math majors have held a variety of positions including teacher, software engineer and actuarial analyst. Gallant, for example, is interested in becoming a teacher or continuing to pursue mathematics in graduate school for a position in higher education. One area where K-State students found fault with the study is the hypothesis for why women and men sort into different majors. “I’ve always been interested in creative things like art, but I also really enjoy analytical subjects like math,” said Megan Burke, graduate student in architecture. Burke said architecture brings both of those together for her. Wood echoed Burke’s sentiment, citing his childhood obses-

sion with Legos. When it comes to gender, neither Burke nor Gallant felt like they had any pressure placed upon them for being female. In fact, Gallant, said she feels as if it were the opposite. Her father initially steered her toward a degree in the male-dominated field of engineering, not away from it. Gallant said she only switched from engineering to a dual degree in mathematics and secondary education because she “wanted to work with people more.” While Burke, Gallant and Wood let their interests and passions guide them, they all noted there are many who are steered toward their major because of money. “I know a lot of people that are engineering and they’re like ‘yeah it’s not fun, but it pays great,’” Wood said. The Glassdoor study notes: “It does not examine why men and women sort into different majors, or how many other conscious and unconscious biases in hiring, pay and promotion may help amplify the gender pay gap we observe in the labor market.” While K-State may fit within the “pipeline problem,” students at the university are looking toward gender pay equality. “I’m always of the mindset that if two people have the same skills and the same work ethic they should definitely be payed the same regardless of gender,” Burke said.

long I feel like I need to study for a test.” Other students do not follow recommended study hours. They feel that for some classes, they are still able to get a good grade without studying the recommended hours, Sanchez said. “I have never studied the recommended amount for my classes, and I have never received a grade I was torn about,” Sanchez said. According to New Stu-

dent Services, some students may be better able to understand the material that is given in class, on assignments and on tests. The website cites how differences in students’ learning styles factor into how much outside studying students actually put in. Another factor is that some students’ learning setbacks, like dyslexia or ADHD, mean they have to put more effort into studying outside of class.

TUESDAY | Park management,

conservation student looks forward continued from page

Meredith plans to become an interpretation park ranger, which will involve giving tours and teaching about the environment. “It’s really about taking the science that I have had to learn and making it easier for people to understand,” Meredith said. “That is what we call interpreting the environment.” Meredith has already completed two internships, which is required in her major to graduate. Her favorite internship was in Port Angeles, Washington, at Olympic National Park. “I assisted with two information programs a day, which varied from 10 minutes up to an hour long,” Meredith said. “I would go on hikes after work, which

I found is the best place to find a group of tourists and really talk to them about the environment.” Meredith said her favorite part about interpreting the environment is not only the opportunity to help improve the environment, but that she also gets to connect with people over something that she is passionate about. “To be a park ranger, you really have to love nature more than anything else,” Meredith said. Nathan Fischer, senior in park management and conservation, said his favorite part about what he does is he will always get to work in a beautiful environment. “I can remember hiking in Colorado as a child and seeing this gorgeous waterfall with a crys-

tal-clear pond beneath it,” Fischer said. “That was really when I decided that I wanted to care for the environment when I grew up.” Meredith said when people see nature’s beauty at these parks, they are more likely to be environmentally smart. “It’s like a leverage that we use,” Meredith said. “When tourists compliment the park’s beauty, we tell them that it won’t be like this much longer if they don’t protect the environment, such as recycling.” Meredith hopes to return to Olympic National Park someday and work as an interpretation park ranger. Eventually, she would like to take a managerial job and become a superintendent of any national park.

Rowing team heads to Lawrence, faces KU in Sunflower Showdown DEAUNDRA ALLEN THE COLLEGIAN

The Kansas State women’s rowing team will travel to Lawrence for a Sunflower Showdown against Kansas. The showdown will be held at Burcham Park. Due to the possibility of poor weather, the original time of 11 a.m. on Saturday was pushed to 5:45 p.m. today and moved to Lawrence from Kansas City, Kansas. “I think this year we will come in more aware that if we do not perform well, Kansas will beat us,” head coach Patrick Sweeney said to K-State Sports. “Last year, we came into the race flat. We were looking beyond to the Big 12 Championship, and it showed in the results. It is always tight racing.

We cannot be complacent. This season, we are getting quicker week to week, so if we continue that we will be ready for Friday’s races and ready for the Big 12 Championship.”

This race will conclude the regular season for rowing, before they travel back to Oak Ridge, Tennessee, for the Big 12 Championship regatta May 13-14. “It is an outdoor sport, and you have to be prepared to change things,” Sweeney said to K-State Sports. “Part of the maturity is being able to handle

It will be a slightly weird weekend for the Kansas State baseball team as they host Abilene Christian for three games at Tointon Family Stadium. Not only are the Wildcats facing a nonconference foe, they will be playing a doubleheader today due to the rain threat on Saturday. The series will conclude on Sunday. The first game today will begin at 2:30 p.m. and the second game will begin at 6:30 p.m. with Sunday’s first pitch set for 1 p.m. K-State is coming off a 6-5 loss on Tuesday night to the Arkansas Razorbacks at Kauffman Stadium. “It was a good game, back and forth,” head coach Brad Hill said to K-State Sports after the game. “Both teams competed pretty darn hard against each other.

that happened there, get runner on third and less than two outs, got to cash in and get those runs

across.” Despite the loss, some K-State hitters continue to hit the ball well. Senior first baseman Jake Scudder hit another home run — his 12th of the season — and leads the Big 12. Wildcat senior infielder Quintin Crandall also hit a home run, but the two player’s home runs weren’t enough to power K-State past Arkansas. As for the Abilene Christian Wildcats, they have struggled a lot this season as they are 12-16 overall and have won just one road game. They are coming off a 7-0 win against Baker on Wednesday, but have only won three games since March 17. K-State will look to build off a series win last weekend against West Virginia, who sits in the top three in the Big 12 Conference. This will be the first nonconference weekend game for the Wildcats in over a month as they try to improve on their 21-20 record this season.
