ketballs echo in a familiar way, like a child yelling its own name down a well. Voices and the squeaking of pristine shoes, still gleaming with white and purple, unsullied by the slush of mud and snow outside, fill in the gaps between the revisiting boom of the basketballs. The team is coached by K-State sophomore guard Mason Schoen, with junior guard Zach Winter and freshman forward Pierson McAtee flanking him as assistant coaches. “I think it’s a pretty neat experience because all of these guys help me and my team every single day with our practices and games,” Schoen said. “So it’s nice to kind of give back and see them kind of succeed on the court as well.” The college manager league started with schools in the Big 10 getting their managers together to play pickup games. It has evolved into a nationwide league of schools, with records kept and rankings that come out weekly. “We’ve done them a few times,” Jacob Anderson, whose fellow managers call him “Snake,” junior in family studies and human services and fourthyear manager, said. “We played two or three games two years ago and one game last year, but this is the first year it’s really picked up for the Big 12. Everybody tries to do it now.”

The No. 1 manager basketball team in the country is warming up, getting ready to defend their then-new ranking against a hungry Oklahoma State team. The only light shining over the court makes a familiar glare on the pristine brown, tan and purple of the treated wood. In the emptiness of Bramlage, the sound of 10 or so bas-

With bright eyes and a wide smile, Ryan Haxton, senior in mass communications, lights up as he talks about something he is very passionate about. As he talks, it is easy to see the fervent dedication to his cause spilling out with every word. He speaks as someone who has a purpose, a passion and a plan. Haxton said he is a feminist and is proud of it. “In general, being a feminist means that you understand that the world we live in isn’t always fair, and that you understand that we have to work for equality,” Haxton said. “And that even though we’ve made a lot of progress, there’s still a lot that needs to be done for equality and for gender — how we look at gender and how we look at leadership for women and men.” According to a poll conducted by the PerryUndem Research and Communications firm, 85 percent of Americans said they believe in equality for women, but only 18 percent would go so far as to call themselves feminists. Haxton said numbers like these are not surprising, but are disappointing nonetheless. “You don’t have to call yourself a feminist, but if you are working toward equality and working to create a better society, then you are a feminist,” Haxton said. “You can use the title or not, but in the end that’s feminism in a nutshell.”

Winter break saw a drop in some Manhattan crime rates as cases of motor vehicle burglary, alcohol violations and traffic incidents all fell during the month-long vacation from school. After applying a 5-mile buffer on Manhattan, Raids Online, a website that receives data directly from the Riley County Police Department, shows that between Nov. 18 and Dec. 18, 2015, there were 50 burglaries from motor vehicles, and between Dec. 19, 2015 and Jan. 19, 2016, there were 19. Alcohol violations dropped from 32 to 12, and traffic incidents fell from 109 to 74 during the same periods. “With college students, you hear, ‘The thefts are going to go up because college students are back,’” Mat Droge, RCPD public information officer, said. “And the perception is college students come to town and commit crime ... what I would guess is actually going on is college students come to town, and we have more victims available.” Theft and most other crime rates were comparable for the month of winter break to the month before. For example, instances of assault dropped from 29 to 26, vandalism fell from 38 to 36, shoplifting decreased from 15 to 14, DUI increased from 25 to 31 and theft increased from 38 to 40.

“Crime is going to go up and down; it’s never going to stay flatlined,” Droge said. “What we will tend to look at is trends ... if crime is going up and down, obviously we want it to be down as low as we can, but realistically, it’s going to go up and it’s going to go down.” Looking at raw crime rate data does not necessarily give a clear answer about what is happening in the city, Kevin Steinmetz, criminologist and assistant professor of sociology at K-state, said. “The problem with these numbers is you can’t separate causation from correlation,” Steinmetz said. “There’s no evidence that you can use to support any of these conclusions.” Droge said that based on his experience, the best way to explain the lack of a proven link between college students and crime rates was with an analogy. “Pirates a long time ago were pretty prevalent on the sea; pollution was relatively low,” Droge said. “Pirates are no longer prevalent on the sea; pollution is relatively high. So we got rid of pirates, and pollution went up, so pirates must be good for keeping pollution down.” For the K-State Police Department, there were fewer cases but more calls for service in December than November, according to data provided by Maj. Don Stubbings, assistant director of support services for the campus police.

care for Jolie the other two days of the week. “Mollie has her degree and a good paying job, so it just made the most sense for me to stay home with Jolie,” Steven said. The Rices’ living situation is becoming more common. Currently, males account for 16 percent of all stay-at-home parents as of 2012. This is a societal trend that has nearly doubled since 1989, according to the most recent data from the Pew Research Center.

But not everyone is cheer-

With only 18 percent of Americans claiming the title, the numbers do not lie when it comes to how people react to the word. “It’s become synonymous with man-hating,” Haxton said. “There are so many stigmas attached to it that it has become this undesirable thing to a lot of people, and that’s unfortunate.” Menninism, a popular social media trend, has become a sounding board for those who feel feminism has done to men exactly what it is trying to undo for women: discriminate. The truth, Haxton said, is not that at all. “The goal of feminism isn’t to take anything away from men, but to create equality,” Haxton said.

WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

ALL-INCLUSIVE FEMINISM

Haxton said he believes gender equality affects both men and women. “In society, there’s this emphasis on the difference between strong men and women,” Haxton said. “And I don’t think a lot of times we associate strength or power with women, and I think that’s a major problem because it also creates this idea that men have to be strong.” Haxton said this idea can be damaging. “I think that there’s a stigma that if you, as a man, aren’t the strongest, then you’re the weakest,” Haxton said. “It’s this idea of masculinity, and if you don’t meet that standard of masculinity, then you’re considered feminine, and unfortunately that has a negative connotation with it.” The concept that feminism reaches beyond just females is an idea supported by Nadezda Shapkina, assistant professor in sociology, anthropology and social work. Shapkina specializes in gender studies and said it is possible that feminism has been geared more toward women than men because women have more-often seen oppression because of their gender.

Graphic by Carly Adams “Perhaps there has been more focus on women in the terms of gender equality, but I would assume that would be because women are the oppressed group in most cultures,” Shapkina said. “Historically, society has centered around males. They have not seen as much of the discrimination that women have. But it is never just about men or women. When women change, men change.”

ROLE CHANGE

Steven and Mollie Rice, a couple from Topeka, Kansas, said feminism, and even gender equality, are not something they pay much attention to, but gender roles play a big part in their daily lives. Each Monday morning starts out pretty much the

same for the Rices, they said. After their alarm goes off, they wake up their daughter and begin preparing for the day. One of them dresses for work while the other dresses 1-year-old Jolie. One grabs a quick bite of breakfast while the other locates a bib and baby food. Finally, Mollie heads off to work, while Steven changes a diaper. Steven is among the more than two million men who, according to the Pew Research Center, are now the primary caregiver for their children, while the mother is the primary breadwinner of the household. It was not an easy adjustment for the couple, who have what they said are “pretty traditional” ideas when it comes to their roles in the family.

“It was hard for me at first,” Steven said. “I grew up with a pretty traditional way of thinking, and it was the normal thing for men to go to work and women to stay at home.” Mollie said she agreed that it was not the ideal situation, but it is a situation they make work. “Sometimes it doesn’t always feel right, like the roles are messed up,” Mollie said. “But it works for us and it’s what makes sense for the time being, so I don’t let it get to me too much.” A study released by the American Sociological Association titled “The Reversal of the Gender Gap in Education and Trends in Marital Dissolution” shows results of gender equality progression

in education attainment and divorce statistics. ”Questions like ‘How much would it bother you if your wife out-earned you?’ and responses to the statement ‘If a woman earns more money than her husband, it’s almost certain to cause problems,’ show that men have become accepting of women out-earning their male partners,” Christine Schwartz, co-author of the study, said. Mollie, who has her bachelor’s degree in nursing and works as a registered nurse, became the primary breadwinner of the family after Steven lost his full-time job. Steven initially looked for another full-time job, but after evaluating the price of day care, the couple decided he would work part time and

Gender equality is predicted to continue, but at a relatively slow pace. According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research 2015 Status of Women in the States project, women currently earn an average of 78.3 cents for every dollar a man earns, and equal pay is not predicted to be accomplished until 2058. According to Shapkina, feminism, gender equality and gender roles are all very multifaceted and incorporate many angles, such as race, age and culture. “Things won’t change overnight, especially if not everyone wants to change,” Shapkina said. Haxton said education is the key to progress and destroying the stigmas associated with feminism. “The most important thing is to have conversations and talk about what feminism really is and what it’s really not,” Haxton said. “That’s not always easy, but it comes through educating yourself.” Mollie and Steven said the answer lies in less labeling and more focus on what is best for a family, or individuals. “I think I’ll always feel like the man should be working and the woman should be staying home, and not because I’m against women empowerment, that’s not it at all,” Steven said. “I think in my mind I’ve always wanted to be the provider, and I don’t think there should be any shame in that. It’s OK for men to stay home, but it’s also OK for women to stay home. There shouldn’t be any shame either way. You do what’s best for your family. Period.”

MANAGERS | Former men’s basketball stars compete in Bramlage continued from page

Joining the coaches and the motley group of ragtag managers fit for a “Hoosiers” remake is assistant coach Chester Frazier. His task is to neutralize the Cowboys’ secret weapon, graduate assistant and former Oklahoma State great, Keiton Page. The rules for the manager basketball league state that if a team can’t fill a five-man roster, which especially happens when teams go on the road and only bring a small number of their manager staff, an assistant coach can step in. Thus, enter Page, the sharpshooter who terrorized the Big 12 from the 2008-09 season to the 2011-12 season. “The Pawnee Pistol,” as he is known fondly among Cowboy fans and fearful-

ly among the rest of the league, had a big night the last time he played in Bramlage, hitting six 3-pointers and scoring 22 points. It was all in vain, though, as Oklahoma State fell by 19 points. For Frazier, his job was simple: Get in Page’s face and cause a misfire. “(Frazier) was one of the best defensive players in the country, if not the best,” head coach Bruce Weber, who coached Frazier at the University of Illinois, said. “He said, ‘I’m going to lock him down,’ and he hit the first jumper and that was it.” Frazier was several years removed from his pro days over in Germany and several more years removed from his Allen Iverson-style cornrows. At the time, though, he was named MVP of

his Illinois team and was named to the 2009 Big 10 All-Defensive Team his senior year. From there, the managers, who normally were the stars of this show, stepped aside gleefully to watch their two coaches, one a former offensive stud and the other a former defensive stud, go at it under the lights. “Coach Frazier is a lot of fun to play with,” Jaron Randle, four-year manager and senior in management, said. “He brings it every day, and Keiton Page is one of the greatest players to come out of Oklahoma State in a while. So it’s fun seeing him out there and having those two compete against each other and finding out ways to stop (Page) from our end and them stopping coach Frazier. It gives you a little glimpse of how competitive

these things are, but in the end it’s all fun.” Frazier was electric. The defensive edge had not been dulled as he locked down Page for the majority of the first half, talking up a purple streak as he was doing it. The Cowboys kept it close throughout the first 20 minute, running-clock half, but the Wildcats’ depth and outside shooting allowed them to pull away, taking their third victory of the season and staying perfect. “I would say we handled the pressure of being No. 1 pretty nicely tonight,” Schoen said. “We came out and we started out shooting pretty well. You know, you see those other No. 1 teams that sometimes feel like there’s too much pressure on them. But I feel like we handled the pres-

sure fairly well and didn’t let the rankings get to our heads.” After every game, the teams line up at center court and take a picture to post to social media as a sign of solidarity. “It’s just fun networking and putting our competitive spirits on the line the night before the game as we help the team out with other duties,” Randle said. “It’s just fun for us to get to relieve some stress with the other team’s managers.” The stress is real. Being a team manager isn’t all about traveling to fun Big 12 road venues and a courtside seat at every K-State game. The managerial staff puts in work, and their contribution, both on and off of the court, does not go unnoticed by the players and coaches “We have a great group of

managers,” Weber said. “It’s almost like a fraternity. First of all, they love K-State and they love our basketball program. They put more time in that basketball office than our staff even sometimes.” Unfortunately for the managers, their undefeated record ended on Tuesday as they fell in their first road game in a rematch with the University of West Virginia managers. As fleeting as their week and a half of being ranked No. 1 was, they always have their team to fall back on. “This emphasizes what our team is really about, which is family,” Randle said. “With them tweeting at us and encouraging us to work hard, it shows how much of a family we are and how much we work as a team.”

More Radina’s come to campus LACY SIEFKIN the collegian

“I

f you’re not roasting your coffee, you’re serving stale coffee,” Wade Radina, owner of Radina’s Coffeehouse and Bakehouse, said. Monday was the opening of the newest location of Radina’s in the newly remodeled Engineering Hall at K-State. “We’re going to have seven stores operating in Manhattan by later this year,” Radina said. The next two locations will also be on the K-State campus. According to Radina, a full-sized cafe will be built in the brand new College of Business building set to open in August. The other location has replaced Caribou Coffee in the Student Union. The renovation of the Student Union presented an opportunity for Radina’s to expand again. It has initially opened where Caribou was previously located across from the food court on the second floor. The permanent location will take the place of the Quick Cats convenience store, also located on the second floor. The store will transition

into the cafe by the end of the year. “I think (the expansion is) a good thing,” Logan Roberts, assistant manager said. “This is a very nice local coffee shop, and I like to see it thrive and expand. Especially to be a part of it is really validating.” Radina said it is important to bring a quality product and provide a hub for the community. “The reality is Manhattan has been really good to us ... we’ve been able to bring to Manhattan the things that we always felt were missing from here,” Radina said. Radina said he personally knows the importance of a community meeting place. He met his wife 25 years ago where the Aggieville Radina’s is now located. Back then, he was a barista at Espresso Royale, which is what the cafe was known as then. Radina said he never intended to have more than one store. “I’ve got companies that come to me and want to help me franchise this, and they’ll do all the work and I’ll get rich,” Radina said. “I’m not interested in that as I tell some of my friends I feel like one of the wealthiest men on the planet because my time is my own. If I want to go home for lunch and

originally started as a barista and was the very first Radina’s coffee roaster. McCants graduated from K-State with a degree in electrical engineering but chose to keep his day job. McCants said he has high hopes for the newest and smallest Radina’s site.

“It’s a place were people get together all the time,” McCants said. “People have millions of ideas over cups of coffee everyday. That’s one part of why I’m really glad to be back in engineering. A lot of kids are going to have a lot of great ideas over good coffee.”

Food trucks on K-State campus lack vegetarian options KELSEY KENDALL the collegian

As the food court in the K-State Student Union closed down, the food trucks rolled in. Serving a variety of foods, from biscuits and gravy to barbecue, the trucks do not offer much in the way of vegetarian options for students. “I know there’s not a whole lot of us on campus,” Madison May, junior in political science and international studies, said. “But we’re here.” May said since the food court closed down, she has packed her lunch with vegetarian foods almost every day. She said she would like to see more options available at the food trucks, but does not think much will be done. “At this point, it’s just we’re kind of used to (the lack of options),” May said. Miranda Snyder | THE COLLEGIAN Mr. K’s food truck is one of few food trucks on campus that offers vegetarian options. One option is their house salad.

Brad Streeter, owner of the Vista Burger food truck, said his truck does not currently sell any vegetarian options, but he plans to put salads on the menu once the weather gets warmer. Mr. K’s Mobile Kitchen currently serves salad, one of the few vegetarian options available through all of the food trucks.

“If nobody requests anything, there’s nothing I can do.”

For example, he said if a salad comes with grilled chicken or other meat, he is more than willing to change it for students who ask. Streeter said he is willing to add more vegetarian options, at least on a trial basis, if enough students express an interest in it. “If nobody requests anything, there’s nothing I can do,” Streeter said.

Royals re-sign World Series hero

Kansas City Royals left fielder Alex Gordon hits an RBI single in the fifth inning during game four of the World Series on Saturday, October 31, 2015, at Citi Field in New York.

the collegian

By the second week of classes, Christmas break feels like it was a lifetime ago. The bruises from your new hoverboard have started to fade, the leftovers have run out and that “Woo Pig Sooie” Razorback call has quit haunting your dreams.

But let us not forget the greatest gift we received over the Christmas break: Alex Gordon is back with the Kansas City Royals. This year’s offseason free-agency frenzy has been focused on whether or not the Royals could bring the face of the franchise back home to Kansas City. There was plenty of speculation that Gordon was just too far out of their price range. A report from CBS Sports came out around Christmas saying Gordon had “no chance” of reaching an agreement with his hometown club, which can certainly put a damper on your holiday spirit when you’re trying to find the perfect spot on

the tree for a “2015 World Series Champion” Christmas ornament. About a week later, the Kansas City Star reported that the rumors about Gordon were in fact just rumors, and while Gordon was talking with several teams, the Royals weren’t out of the picture just yet. Bringing Gordon back to Kansas City seemed like too much of a Disney movie to be possible in real life, and many times throughout Gordon’s free agency I found myself making up excuses to not resign him. He’s going to be 32 in February. He only played 104 games last season due to a groin injury. Maybe he’d

peaked and it was time for the slow, downward spiral of the end of a career. Then there’s all that nostalgic stuff that makes franchise superstars so important to baseball teams. Highlights like the bottom of the ninth in Game 1 of the World Series, where Gordon smacked a home run that tied the game and set up a Royal win after 14 innings. He has four gold gloves and three AllStar game appearances. Most of all, I remember being in grade school and thinking Gordon and David DeJesus were my favorite players because they were the two names I always remembered seeing on the roster. Gordon in anything but a Royals jersey just doesn’t make sense. For the non-believers, Gordon still batted .271 in the 2015 season, the third highest batting average of his career. He still made the defensive highlights for his heroics in left field, including a leaping catch into the stands against the Chicago White Sox. I may not have been around for all of the 29year playoff drought, but I was around long enough to appreciate what’s happened in Kansas City over the past two seasons. While the Royals bought back Gordon for four more years at $72 million, you can’t put a price tag on the chemistry of this Royals team and the spark Gordon brings. The Royals’ home opener is just over two months away and will be a rematch with the New York Mets. Gordo Nation isn’t going anywhere. Liz Heath is a junior mass communications.

CRIME | Unlocked cars easy targets continued from page

There were 78 cases and 519 calls for service in November, and 63 cases and 557 calls for service in December. Stubbings said the increase in calls for service was likely due to more “self-initiated proactive patrols and building checks” during finals week. For example, these could include a police check of Seaton Hall as architecture students work late into the night on final projects. Droge said the drop in traffic incidents over winter break was likely due to the absence of the additional vehicles of college students, leading to less congestion on Manhattan roads. He also said the drop in alcohol violations was likely due to fewer college students being in town. “The notion that college students come in and we have more crime because college students come in, I guess on paper could appear accurate,” Droge said. “But in real life, I honestly believe that we have more victims that come in, or the opportunity for more people to become victims.” For instance, Droge said the drop in motor vehicle burglary over winter break is probably not due to fewer college students committing crimes. Rather, he said it suggests that college students are more likely to become victims of crimes. “You have people that come from different backgrounds and different residential makeups,” Droge said. “If you come from a town of a couple hundred, maybe you don’t lock your doors ever, and a crime has never occurred. Unfortunately, you can’t do that here. So 90 percent of all of our vehicle burglaries, the car was unlocked, the windows were down, it was in some fashion the car was unsecured.” Droge said students should be more careful about making sure their that cars are locked and that they not leaving valuables in them. “If you put yourself in a vehicle burglar’s shoes at 3 or 4 in the morning, when Manhattan is dead-quiet, are you going to break a window and make a noise so the cop down the block can hear you?” Droge said. “Or are you just going to open up the door and it looks like you are in the car? So even if a cop drives by, we have no idea that it’s not your car.” Steinmetz said the routine activities theory of crime could be applied to the situation. The theory suggests that for a crime to occur, three things must be present: a likely offender, a suitable target and the absence of a capable guardian. Based on this theory, an unlocked car with valuables is a more suitable target for burglary. If a person becomes the victim of burglary from a motor vehicle, Droge said he or she should report the crime; an online police report can be completed in 10-15 minutes and then submitted through the RCPD website. “Online reporting makes it easier to report crimes,” Droge said. “Our hope is if it’s easier, more crimes will get reported.” Droge said that when it comes to college students, the biggest emphasis of the police department is education about the noise ordinance. “Really, the amount of emphasis on college students at the police department is a lot less than one might think,” Droge said. “Sometimes I think the perception is the police department can’t wait for college students to come back so that we can make arrests and write tickets for MIPs (minor in possession) and MICs (minor in consumption), because people think that we get our budget from those tickets. All of that is absolutely incorrect.”

Ice cold shooting dooms men’s basketball team in loss to West Virginia AVERY OSEN the collegian

File Photo by Parker Robb | THE COLLEGIAN Then-sophomore forward Wesley Iwundu guards West Virginia forward Jonathan Holton in the first half of the Wildcats’ 59-65 loss to the Mountaineers on January 27, 2015, inside Bramlage Coliseum.

he Wildcat team that shot almost 60 percent in a win over Oklahoma State on Saturday must not have gotten the memo about the game on Tuesday night against West Virginia in Morgantown, West Virginia. The Wildcats shot just 35 percent in their 70-55 loss to the Mountaineers. The Wildcats went 1-18, which is .056 percent, from the 3-point line in the game after hitting nine in Saturday’s win. “It’s disappointing that we didn’t play better because I thought our focus was there tonight,” head coach Bruce Weber said. The Wildcats jumped out to a 5-2 lead, capitalizing on two turnovers on the first three possessions by West Virginia. K-State and West Virginia were tied 7-7, but after Mountaineer junior guard Tarik Phillip and head coach Bob Huggins received two technical fouls, the Wildcats only made one of four free throws given to them. They then missed the shot on the ensuing possession, which was a huge opportunity squandered by K-State. “I thought we started okay, but after we missed the free throws we lost some momentum,” Weber said. This was the start of a bad stretch for the Wildcats. K-State only made one field goal in the next eight minutes, and the Wildcats trailed 19-10 with 10 minutes to go in the first half. The Wildcats got back within three points with five minutes left, but a free throw by Mountaineer junior forward Devin Williams and a 3-pointer from junior guard Teyvon Myers extended the lead back to seven. West Virginia sophomore guard Jevon Carter made a 3-pointer with 13 seconds left in the half, matching the

Mountaineers’ biggest lead of the half. West Virginia went into the halftime break up 34-25. “We told our team before the game that bit’s okay to win ugly,” Weber said. “We played some zone in the first half, but that was just a tough shot that Carter made at the end of the half, and we lost some momentum.” Both teams came out shooting poorly in the second half, with only six points scored by both teams combined in the first four minutes. “They had us going fast, and we tried to make too tough of plays,” Weber said. “We needed to slow down, but this is a learning lesson.” With 15 minutes to play and down by 14, the Wildcats went on a 7-0 run to get within seven at 41-34. This was as close as the Wildcats got, however, as the Mountaineers had a double-digit lead for the remainder of the second half. West Virginia eventually got its biggest lead of the game at 57-40 with six minutes to play. “We hung in there but just couldn’t get over the hump,” Weber said. K-State got within 10 again with five minutes to play, but West Virginia held off the Wildcats, winning 70-55. “We might have played our best and still not have won,” Weber said. “We didn’t win at home, and we played well in that game. Our defense wasn’t that bad, but there were some things we needed to be better at.” Senior guard Justin Edwards led K-State in scoring with 14 points. Freshman forward Dean Wade had nine, and junior forward D.J. Johnson contributed eight. The Wildcats are now 12-8 overall and 2-6 in Big 12 play. They will get a break from the Big 12 conference grind when they take on Ole Miss on Saturday inside Bramlage Coliseum in the SEC-Big 12 Challenge at 1 p.m. “We need to beat Mississippi and continue to win at home,” Weber said. “But we’ve got to find a way to win some games on the road. And the season’s not over — a lot of good things can still happen.”
