KSUnite reaches its third iteration in 2019
RYAN URBAN
THE COLLEGIAN
The third KSUnite will take place on Nov. 6 in the K-State Student Union. The event will begin with the Unity Walk at 12:30 p.m. Maritza Segarra, Kansas State alumna and 8th District Court judge, will be the keynote speaker to discuss the trials many women face ascending to top-level positions in their fields of work. There will also be a panel of student speakers. Bryan Samuel, chief diversity and inclusion officer, facilitated the event for the past two years and said he is excited to be on board for the 2019 KSUnite event. “KSUnite is our campus’ signature event to reaffirm our commitment in our position to diversity and inclusion,” Samuel said. “Kansas State University is the first operational land grant institution in the country, and we have always been open to individuals interested in pursuing higher learning without regard to race, gender and creed.” Samuel said K-State continues to pursue that every day, and KSUnite brings many people together. “Students, faculty, staff, community members, alums — whoever is interested in participating to come together to celebrate our long, rich history of being on the right side of this particular social phenomena and learn,” Samuel said. “Leveraging our expertise and our credentials and experiences of our community mem-

The Privilege Fee Committee approved the use of R&R funds for the K-State Student Union 8 to 0. The union requested $220,000 to repair the Flint Hills Room and Cottonwood Room. The two rooms are frequently used event spaces that are showing wear and tear, Craig Johnson, associate director of the Union and director of operations, said. Renovations include replacing carpet, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, lighting, ductwork and technology. “We’d like to go with paint,” Johnson said, in regards to replacing wallpaper. “We feel it will be much easier to patch and repair in the future.” As for carpeting, Johnson is looking at a darker carpet that can hide stains easily and stand up to extended wear and tear. In addition, the new carpet will be done in squares for easier replacement if needed. New lighting fixtures in the rooms will be adjustable LED lights to provide for intimate dinner settings as well as meetings and informal events.

Kris Kobach talks U.S. Senate race, national issues facing students PETER LOGANBILL THE COLLEGIAN
Kris Kobach, U.S. Senate candidate, former gubernatorial candidate and former Kansas Secretary of State, started his speech to College Republicans on Monday by relating with his audience. He knows what it's like, he said, to be a Republican on a politically correct college campus. Kobach then moved to addressing the recent impeachment inquiry related to President Donald Trump's alleged impropriety in conversations with the president of Ukraine. As a former constitutional law professor, Kobach said he used to teach the "actual text" of Constitution. He said the Founding Fathers thought of the impeachment mechanism as a last resort, not something to be done in the middle of an election cycle. "You don’t need impeachment if the people are already evaluating and looking at the choices," Kobach said. "We are
in the middle of a presidential election, and so let the people decide who should be their next president.” He went through the reasons for impeachment stated in the Constitution: treason, bribery or other high crimes or misdemeanors. He said nothing the president has done would constitute impeachment. Additionally, Kobach said he's taken on a position as general counsel for the "We Build the Wall" organization, a group working to build Trump's promised border wall with privately funded donations. Private action, he said, is part of American history. “Throughout American history, we as private citizens stepped forward and said, ‘Yeah, we’ll do that. We’re not going to wait for the government to do that,’” he said. The last time he spoke to the College Republicans at Kansas State, Kobach said the hot issue on campus was concealed carry. “You have demonstrated, as have campuses all across the
country where campus carry is now being allowed, that this is not only something that students are quite capable of doing, protecting themselves and others, it also has made campuses safer," Kobach said. He said he believes Democrats are on a war path right now for two topics: impeachment and gun control. Kobach discussed a recent column he wrote for Breitbart news. In the column, he describes why he doesn't think efforts to tighten gun laws would stop mass shootings. In the post, he discusses recent events like those in Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas. “One is the lie that if we had had universal background checks, that we would have stopped those shootings," Kobach said in his address. "The answer's 'No,' both shooters, in Dayton and El Paso, passed a background check.” During the Q&A session, he said one national issue he wants to address is the national debt, and that he thinks most politicians, including Repub-

"It’s immoral for my generation to spend money and then hand you a credit card and say it’s your job to pay for it.” Kobach compared his senate race to the gubernatorial race he lost to Governor Laura Kelly in 2018, saying a common trend in Kansas is for the governor's seat to
switch between Democrat and Republican. In the contrary, he said, the Senate seat he's got his sights set on has remained red for decades. “One of the advantages of being in a recent race is you learn what works and what doesn’t work," he said. If the positions had been open at the same time, Kobach said he would've gone for the Senate seat instead of running for governor. “If these two races, those races were happening in the
same year, I would have jumped in the senate race in a heartbeat," he said. "We didn’t know at that time that Senator Roberts would be retiring.” At the end of his speech, Kobach referred back to his early connection with the audience. "Thanks for fighting the good fight on college campuses," he said. "I know the situation you are in, and oftentimes it can be tough defending truth and defending conservative principles.”

Minute in My Shoes: Travel helped this student find her passion GABRIELLE ALBERTSON THE COLLEGIAN
Before she came to Kansas State, Isabelle Liuzza, senior in architectural engineering, wasn’t sure about what she wanted to do for her career, but she found her calling after a trip to Europe. “I chose architectural engineering as my major because, in high school, I went to France and I loved history, but I knew I didn’t want a job in history,” Liuzza said. “However, while I was there I saw all of these old historical buildings, and I was like, ‘Why not combine my love for history and buildings into one and go into architectural engineering where I could focus on historical preservation,’ which I’ll do later on in life.” When it came to choosing a college, Liuzza said she focused on universities offering her major and their proximity to family. “I chose to come to Kansas State University because of the architectural engineering program,” Liuzza said. “They have a really good program here for engineer majors. Also ... at the time my sister was attending Kansas State University so I had family nearby which was something I wanted.” While in France, she explored many attractions like the Notre Dame Cathedral.

Also, students, faculty and staff had the opportunity to submit proposals on topics that educate, engage or empower people. “[Education] is about sharing information, helping individuals learn about different things that they may be interested in knowing or unfamiliar with,” Samuel said. “Engage in those different types of issues where there is an opportunity to converse about different things ... with another. Empower those
“I saw the Arc de Triomphe, the museum of Musée du Louvre, Sacré-Coeur and Les Invalides,” Liuzza said. She stayed in Nantes in northwest France for a week, followed by Paris, Bordeaux and Monaco. “I also went to Saint Sebastian which is a small town in Spain,” Liuzza said. “That was really pretty and the McDonald’s there was a lot nicer than ours. It was more high-tech than what ours is now, which I thought was interesting because who knew there would be a McDonald’s in Europe?” Liuzza said she has big plans for her future. “[I] currently have a job offer on the construction side and working on estimating,” Liuzza said. “But, later on, I would like to work on historical buildings and restoring them and making them more efficient in today’s life.” Liuzza said her dream is to live in Europe and help restore the Notre Dame. When she isn’t focusing on architectural engineering, she likes to read, play tennis and spend time with dogs. “I don’t want to be a crazy dog person, but one day I hope to own four dogs at most and I want to adopt most of them,” Liuzza said. “I’m living my life to the fullest one day at a time.”
things that give us skills and ability to interact and engage and think about influencing behaviors and things of that nature. All of these are tied to our principles of community and our Tilford Multicultural Competencies.” Samuel said the event had “phenomenal” attendance in the past two years, and he hopes students continue to engage in KSUnite in the future. “I would love to see this event continue,” Samuel said. “I would love to see more student presenters, would love to see greater collaboration with students, faculty and staff in the different topics and things that they present. We have a little bit of that for 2019.
Gabrielle Albertson | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP
Senior in architectural engineering Isabelle Liuzza found her passion after a trip to Europe in high school.
“Moving forward, I would love to see it referred to as one of those national best practices and models for other institutions to follow. We’ve had quite a bit of inquiry about KSUnite, and I know some institutions are following our lead.” Overall, Samuel said he is proud of KSUnite and the effect it has on campus. “I would love to see the ripples in the pond the way more institutions are doing,” Samuel said. “So you know, I’m excited about it, I’m proud to be a part of and just know that I had a little bit of input in this thing that is really, really good for our campus.”

“I don’t have an issue with legitimate repairs with
a budget meant for repairs,” Natalie Jabben, committee member and junior in political science, said. Renovations for the Flint Hills and Cottonwood rooms are expected to begin on Dec. 16 and be finished by
Jan. 19, just in time for the spring 2020 semester. Room 227, Johnson said, is the next room the Union hopes to update. That should take place over the summer of 2020.

K-State looks at bye week as an opportunity to chisel the stone CODY FRIESEN
THE COLLEGIAN
The Kansas State Wildcats are on their second bye week of the season, which comes at a crucial time after a loss to Baylor on Saturday. The defeat exposed some concerns on both sides of the ball, but the Wildcats get an extra week to regroup before taking on TCU at home. During Tuesday’s press conference, head coach Chris Klieman said the biggest aspect to work on is the offensive side. “We have to eliminate our negative plays,” Klieman said. “We are getting seven [yards], getting eight, getting nine, and all of the sudden we miss a block. We miss a read. We miss a cut, and all of the sudden we lose two, we lose three.” Klieman said the Wildcats will focus on cleaning up things internally this week as opposed to spending two weeks scouting TCU. The second bye week comes in only the sixth week of the season, creating a grueling road to the end of the season with seven straight weeks of conference
play.
In back-to-back losses, it can be easy to believe the sky is falling, but senior defensive tackle Trey Dishon said the team is still calm and collected. “People think the demeanor is not good, but we lost two games,” Dishon said. “We are not 0-5. We’re 3-2, so it’s not bad at all right now.” Dishon said K-State can right the ship after the two losses. “We’re just keeping guys positive, keeping guys on the right track, doing things right and mostly getting fits right and playing better on Saturday, how we execute,” Dishon said. The offensive line has struggled to open up holes for big yardage in the last two games, and junior quarterback Skylar Thompson was also sacked six times in the game against Baylor. The offensive line needs to clean up the little things before it becomes an issue, senior offensive lineman Adam Holtorf said. “It’s just a lot of little things, and those little things add up, and everybody realizes it,” Holtorf said. “We’ve gotta look at each different piece of
our game and ways to improve that.” But the path forward isn’t clear. “I wouldn’t say there is a thread or a common, consistent idea that has been the issue,” Holtorf said. With the loss of redshirt freshman wide receiver Malik Knowles to injury, the receiving core had to pick up the slack. Knowles suited up and played in the game against Baylor, but left the field early in the game and did not return. True freshman Joshua Youngblood has been a strong addition to the receiving group and has grown to be a reliable wideout for the Wildcats. Youngblood said it’s an opportunity to step up. “We have a lot of playmakers in the room, so we just have to step up,” Youngblood said. “We know we can do it. We do it every day in practice. We all make plays, so we just gotta do it when the lights are on.” K-State will face off against TCU, who will also be coming off a bye week, on Saturday, Oct. 19, at 1:30 p.m. in Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The game will air on the Fox Sports Network.

Volleyball's Sarah Dixon hopes to lead squad to succesful postseason ADAM MEYER
THE COLLEGIAN
Redshirt senior setter Sarah Dixon is a big part of the 2019 Kansas State Volleyball team. “She’s a leader,” redshirt junior middle blocker Peyton Williams said. “One of the finest we have. She is a leader in every capacity. I always trust her when she has the ball in her hands.” After playing her first year of college at the University of Arizona as a freshman, Dixon transferred to Kansas State and redshirted her sophomore season. Even sitting on the bench, she demonstrated her leadership and positive mindset. “It was really difficult not being on the court, I love competing,” Dixon said. “I have always been like that, so I enjoy competing. I had to find a way
to think it was competition even though I was on the sideline. I was cheering on my teammates from the sideline, and watching from the sideline gives you a different perspective, so whatever I could provide the other setter was what I was going to do and to use it going forward.” Once it came time to play as a redshirt sophomore, Dixon was ready. “It was kind of like, ‘I’ve been waiting and waiting, and now is my time,’” she said. Dixon played in all 116 sets in her first season on the court for the Wildcats, starting 24 of 29 matches as setter. She recorded a team-best 740 assists and 11 double-doubles. In her redshirt junior season, she earned American Volleyball Coaches Association All-American Honors and a spot on the AVCA All-Midwest Region First Team. Dixon said leadership is all
about sharing with her teammates all the things that she learns and hopefully impacting them in a positive way. It’s about being present both on the court and off the court so that they can grow and learn as fast as possible. The volleyball team is 6-9 with three games down in Big 12 play. The Wildcats have an opportunity for a statement win against No. 4 Texas on Wednesday to make a push for the postseason. Dixon said the team will do “whatever we can do to just pull off some wins.” “Just fraying up the young [players] to just go out and compete. ... It’s one thing to just get better each and every day, but once you go out there it is all about competing,” Dixon said. “We just need to win the games that we can win and control the things we can control.”

things reduced that number even more. I was so worried about being accepted that I didn’t realize the acceptance of my peers wasn’t worth the joy I lost in the process. So here’s to the basic girl. Here’s to pop music and pumpkin spice lattes. Here’s to sweater weather and TikTok. Here’s to the things that make you happy, even if you think they make someone else cringe. If we let up the pressure on the basic girl, and on ourselves, maybe we can make life a little bit easier, even if just for a little while.

It’s October, which means social media has released a cacophonous, collective groan over the “basic girl.” We all know her crimes. She posts a picture of her drink on Instagram, she tweets about how she loves sweater weather, she drinks out of a Hydroflask and she wears her hair in a scrunchie. Honestly, it seems like there’s nothing that people love more than to make fun of the basic girl. I should know, I’ve done it too. She’s young, and because of that, we assume she’s stupid. We’re not like her, not at all. There are very few of us who haven’t mocked her. It’s really easy to make jokes about the basic girl because she’s everywhere. What isn’t as easy is admitting we share some of her interests. Cliches are cliches for a reason, and that’s because they’re genuinely good
things. They’re so universally liked, that eventually it becomes fashionable to dislike them. There’s a sense of shame that builds when you make fun of someone for the things that they like. People start to hide bits of themselves, call the things they genuinely enjoy ‘guilty pleasures,’ whether it’s a corny movie or a popular joke. A bit of their joy is taken away. Our distaste for the basic girl affects men just as much as women. Guys are afraid that their masculinity is threatened if they get a pedicure, or wear a shirt with flowers, or order a latte because it’s something that the basic girl would do, and it’s ridiculous. I’m not blameless in this. I made fun of her for so long, eager to distance myself from the butt of the joke, that I never really questioned it until I got older, until I realized there are so few things that make me feel uncomplicated joy.
