K-State Cyber Defense Club ties for second at national competition GRANT MILLER

THE COLLEGIAN

Students in the Kansas State Cyber Defense Club reflect on the past year with pride and look forward to another year as they prepare for the challenges and opportunities to come. On Thursday, Joy Hauser, junior in computer science and recently-elected club president, began one of the last meetings of the semester by talking about new ideas for next semester and receiv-

ing feedback from members. Ideas and questions concerning new members and new projects were heard, as well as suggestions and feedback on current methods. The club focuses on competitions, such as the Argonne National Laboratory’s Cyber Defense Competition, which took place Monday in Lemont, Illinois, where K-State tied for second place with Dakota State University. Following the event, the club is working to encourage hard work and dedication while also attempting to expand

and open the door for new members to get involved. “When I first joined the club, it had about eight people in it,” said Richard Petrie, graduate student in business administration and former club president. “It was very technical and had a lot of qualifications to even get in the door. One of the things we did as officers last year, and one of the things we are doing this year, was removing some of the technical requirements and kind of focused the club on teaching.” Petrie said since the

changes were made, the club has grown to approximately 20 members. The club does presentations on new technologies that are used in the industry and shows demonstrations of it in use. They go over fundamentals for new and less experienced members. The club is working toward a teaching environment that will allow new members to get a grasp on the terminology and technology while also bringing together older members with more experience in order to help the club progress as a

team. One item that was stressed was the need to get involved with as much as possible and to work diligently to improve. “You only learn so much in the club,” said Lance Pettay, senior in computer science. “You have to do stuff outside of class too.” Pettay said new members should not hesitate to get involved because the earlier they get started, the better off they will be. The use of hard work and dedication within the club is not just for the

benefit of the projects however, as the members are able to learn from the challenges that the work brings with it. “You learn about being able to handle the pressure of not knowing things,” Hauser said. “Competitions is stressful and you learn from it.” Moving forward, Hauser would also like to make the club more welcoming to new members and hopefully increase students’ interest in the club. He said any students are welcome to join, but taking the cyber defense basics class, CIS490, is recommended.

ADHD influences the way some students deal with school, finals ADAM COOK

THE COLLEGIAN

Studying for finals means a lot of focusing and trying not to be distracted for many students. For some, that can be harder without the help of medications due to certain disorders. According to the Attention Deficit Disorder Association’s website, ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, is a genetic brain-based syndrome that affects learning and behaviors, including paying attention

and staying calm. Hal Hollingsworth, sophomore in advertising, said he has a love-hate relationship with his ADHD medication. “I take Adderall pretty consistently,” he said. “I don’t always like to take it, however. Sometimes I wish I could deal with school without it, because I feel like if you take Adderall all the time it’s like you aren’t actually doing the work. It’s just the medicine.” “It also takes a big toll on me both physically and mentally,” Hollingsworth contin-

ued. “One of the side effects of Adderall is that it’s an appetite suppressant. A lot of the time I have to force myself to eat so I don’t lose too much weight. Although the negative side effects make it hard sometimes, it also really does help me concentrate on my work better. It’s also kind of nice knowing that it’s always there for me to use if I need it, like a crutch.” Some students choose to take more of their own medication at specific times. Luke Ming, freshman in communication studies, said he mainly

takes his medication when he needs it most. “I take my Adderall more around finals time,” he said. “Since there is more information that needs to be processed, I find it easier when I’m on my medication to get it done. It helps me with my finals results.” Experts in psychology have also noticed a trend in patients’ use of their own prescription. Michelle Micsko, a psychologist in Shawnee, Kansas, said that sometimes people do not want to use their medication unless they absolutely have to.

“Sometimes people are more willing to take their own medication for tests or during finals week because they realize that it actually does help them,” Micsko said. Out-of-state students with ADHD sometimes have a hard time having their medication when they need it. Charlie Morrison, freshman in hospitality management from Keller,

Texas, deals with this occasionally. “Once a month my mom sends me my Adderall,” Morrison said. “There have been instances where I had a test the next day and I did not get it in time. When that happens, I just have to lock myself in a room by myself with no distractions and hope for the best. It isn’t easy.”

OPINION: I tried the controversial Whole30 diet ANDREA DIZMANG THE COLLEGIAN

THE WHOLE30 BEGINNING

What once started off as a trend, the Whole30 hit the East Coast and slowly made its way to the Midwest and the rest of the country. Whole30 is a reset plan where people remove all carbs, sugar, grains, dairy, soy and dare I say it ... alcohol, from their lives for 30 days. After the 30 days, people are encouraged to slowly reintroduce foods that they used to eat to see what kind of effect it has on their overall health. Melissa and Dallas Hartwig founded the program in 2009. “Millions have successfully completed the program with life changing results,” their website said. While Whole30 has an entire website, plus an Instagram feed that overflows with testimonials, over the past few

months the program has received loads of backlash as being labeled a “trend diet” and one of the worst diets people can use. Some of that criticism has come from large sources such as Time magazine and in 2017, U.S. News and World Report ranked the diet last out of the 38 diets included in the report. While Time applauded Whole30’s idea of cutting out excess sugar and carbs from a diet, David Katz, founding director of Yale University’s Prevention Research Center, refers to Whole30 as a “standard ‘go on a diet’ salesmanship.”

HARTWIG RESPONDS

After reaching out to Melissa Hartwig herself, I was able to get an email response from her about how she feels about critics of the diet. “Writing things like ‘the Whole30 isn’t sustainable’ or, ‘It’s unhealthy to eliminate en-

tire food groups’ (it’s a shortterm elimination diet, the gold standard for identifying food sensitivities) tells me you didn’t try that hard to understand the program in the first place,” Hartwig said. Hartwig went on to say that she sees no need to prove the program. She has written three books on the reset program and has had “endorsements from countless medical doctors and registered dietitians, and more than 400 scientific references for the scientific background of the program.” With over 400 scientific references, it might seem strange that this diet is so controversial. It is mainly due to a lack of research of the program or a simple misunderstanding of what the program sets out to achieve. Hartwig clearly and consistently states that the reset program is not sustainable long-term, but a way for people to cleanse their digestive palate and then reintroduce foods to see how

Check out

certain foods affect their body.

EXPERTS WANTED

Linda Yarrow, assistant professor of food, nutrition, dietetics and health at Kansas State and a registered dietician, offered some positives and negatives about Whole30. “It’s a food elimination diet,” Yarrow said. “I cannot support and promote any diet that asks us to restrict certain food groups.” An example she gives is that Whole30 asks people to restrict whole grains because they have an inflammatory affect on the body. While Yarrow agrees that reducing simple carbohydrates is a great way to help inflammation in the body go down, she disagrees with eliminating whole grains altogether. “We have study after study after study over years that show that whole grains actually reduce whole body inflammation,” Yarrow said. Another complaint about Whole30 is there are no good

what’s

happening at K-State

guidelines for when the 30 days are up, to which Hartwig says there is a book completely dedicated to life after Whole30. “Who reads the book?” Yarrow asked. Actually, quite a few people. Hartwig’s second book, “Whole30,” is No. 5 on the New York Times best-selling list under the food and diet category.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

I can personally attest to the program and the changes it has made in my life, as I’ve lost 50 pounds over the span of four-30 day resets in the past year. When on the reset, I had increased levels of energy, better sleep and an abundance of new selfconfidence. And yes, I read the book. Kayla Boltz, a sophomore in social work, had not heard of the Whole30 until recently. Her family has a history of Crohn’s disease, an inflamma-

Office located in Kedzie 116

tory digestive disease, and she thinks a reset like this could help. “Oh definitely, (a diet change) it’s something I need to do,” Boltz said. “I’m a college kid, I eat a lot of fast food, a lot of carbs, something quick you can throw in the oven.” Boltz said she would try doing a Whole30, but would not know if she could succeed in doing the full 30 days. With the right education, and knowing what Whole30 is about, anyone can be successful in trying the Whole30 reset. But, don’t take it from me, take it from the millions of testimonials you can find on Whole30.com. Andrea Dizmang is a senior in mass communications.

Haymaker Hall residents win Green Week energy-efficiency competition RACHAEL CUNNINGHAM munication THE COLLEGIAN

Haymaker Hall won the residence hall energy-saving competition that kicked off Green Week, a week meant to promote environmental efficiency and sustainability on the Kansas State campus. Co-presented by the Energy, Behavior and Built Environment Laboratory, the K-State Power Down competition challenged over 4,200 students to conserve energy from April 3 through 28. Students were asked to conserve energy by completing activities including washing clothes in cold water instead of hot water and turning down the thermostat 10-15 degrees while asleep or not in the room. Morgan Hammes, senior in psychology and environmental science, director of Green Week and vice president of Students for Environmental Action said, “We hope that students will consider their personal energy usage and adopt smart energy practices.” During the 26-day competition, emails were sent twice to residents to announce the standings. Haymaker led against the nine other halls both times. Haymaker resident Mia Shearon, freshman in com-

sciences and disorders, said she was not surprised Haymaker won the competition. “Everyone here is proud to be a Haymaker resident and has been really positive about the whole Power Down idea,” Shearon said. Although suggestions for energy reduction were given in the emails, students found their own ways to become more environmentally efficient. “One thing I’ve done a lot to save energy is keep my windows open overnight to circulate fresh air into our room to keep it cool without making the building’s cooling system work so hard,” Shearon said. Shearon also said she noticed many students using natural light from their windows more than their own lights when studying or hanging out in their rooms. Hammes said she hopes Power Down K-State will become “an annual competition that grows throughout the years.” The winning residence hall was supposed to be announced during the last event of Green Week, the Grassroots Festival, on Friday. However, the festival was cancelled and the winner was announced by email on Monday. Prizes for the winning hall included Visa gift cards,

doughnuts from Varsity Donuts and McCain Auditorium tickets. “The actual saving in dollars for Power Down K-State is minimal, but the message is more important,” said Derek Jackson, assistant vice president of student life and director of housing and dining services. “Many of our students do not think about their singular actions adding up into a bigger result, but it does.”

Baseball team looks to keep hot streak going against Wichita State BRETT ENGLE

THE COLLEGIAN

Fresh off a three-game sweep against Abilene Christian, and winners of seven of its last nine, the Kansas State baseball team will face off against an instate opponent in Wichita State at home tonight. The Wildcats are 24-20 on the year. After a 6-5 win in the first game over Abilene Christian, the bats came alive for the Cats. The Wildcats took the second game 11-1 on a cold, damp day. The team won Sunday 14-3 in seven innings. Freshman outfielder Will Brennan is currently tied for first in the Big 12 in batting average, hitting .368. Fellow freshman, infielder Cameron Thompson, has

56 hits on the year, which is the fifth-best mark in the conference. Thompson has also showed off his speed this year, as he is tied for the conference lead in triples with four, and is tied for fifth in stolen bases with 11. The Wildcatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best player this year has been senior first basemen Jake Scudder. Scudder has provided a big bat in the lineup for the Wildcats, as he leads the Big 12 in home runs with 13. Scudder is also second in the conference in RBIs with 51. Senior infielder Quintin Crandall is tied for fifth in the conference with eight home runs. Senior Parker Rigler and junior Justin Heskett have been stellar in the starting rotation for the Wildcats. Rigler has an ERA of 3.03 and Heskett is right behind him with a 3.14 ERA.

Those marks are good for eight and ninth best in the conference, respectively. After the single game against the Shockers, K-State will host the Oklahoma Sooners Friday through Sunday. The Wildcats will play the Shockers again later this month in Wichita on May 16. First pitch between the Wildcats and Shockers will be at 6:30 p.m. at Tointon Family Stadium.

What to watch: NBA playoffs enter the second round, eight remain RYAN PORTER

THE COLLEGIAN

Then there were eight. The second round of the NBA playoffs is upon us, as two of the four games opened last night. That included the first game between the Toronto Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers and the Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs.

WASHINGTON WIZARDS AT BOSTON CELTICS

Game two between the Wizards and Celtics is set to tip off tonight at 7 p.m. on TNT. Boston is already off to a better start than its first round, losing its first two games to the

Chicago Bulls. This time the team heads into game two up 1-0 in the series against the Wizards. The Celtics won the first game of the series in Boston 123-111. Despite a fantastic 16-0 start for the Washington Wizards, the three-point shooting from Boston was too much for the Wizards as the game progressed. The Celtics ended the game with an impressive 19 three-pointers. The Celtics were led by point guard Isaiah Thomas with 33 points, along with Jae Crowder chipping in 24 points. The two combined for 11 of their 19 three-pointers. The Wizards were steady across the board. Four of their

five starters had double-digit points. They will need to figure out a way to slow down Thomas if it is going to be a close series.

UTAH JAZZ AT GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS

It is two completely different stories between these two teams, who square off tonight at 9:30 p.m. The Golden State Warriors are coming off dominating performances in each game against the Portland Trail Blazers, beating them in four games.
