ticing under a guru, a master of the instrument,” he said. “Then from there you have to apply your life to it. You are a demonstration of the music.” The group’s two-and-a-half hour performance consisted of movements of traditional Indian music, most of which was improvised by the musicians on the spot, Chatterjee said. “In Indian music, nothing is fixed,” he said to the audience. “Everything is fixed, but really nothing is fixed. Look up here, we have no paper music.”

Mita Nag, sitar player, said she hopes the audience can relate to the spiritual side of Indian classical music. Nag, who has played the sitar for nearly 42 years, said the music helps musicians share their souls with the people who are listening. “We want to share the sound of the music and our souls with the people,” Nag said. “When you play this music, you feel unified with the audience, but also with the universe.” see page

Advising fee proposal rejected by committee

JON PARTON Manhattan residents will have to decide on a 0.2 percent sales tax increase this November. City commissioners approved of placing the question in front of voters at their meeting Tuesday night. The funds generated from the ballot proposal would be used for street upkeep. If approved, the increase would raise the current total state and local tax rate from 8.75 to 8.95 percent. That number had Commissioner Wynn Butler concerned. “The issue that gets me hung up is, I don’t want to see this thing go to (8.95 percent),” Butler said. “We do have a quality of life tax and that is 0.25, which could be sunset (expire) before this one goes into effect.” Butler said the quality of life tax was used to build city pools and should end now that their construction is complete. “I think if we continue it any farther, we’re going to lose trust (from residents),” Butler said. “There is that trust factor, and it’s going to haunt us if we leave that thing without sunsetting it.” City Manager Ron Fehr clarified information about the quality of life tax, stating that it would not be economically possible to let the tax expire until late 2017. “Our estimates say that sometime late fall next year, we think there will be enough cash to be able to call for the sunset and call the bonds,” Fehr said. “I would recommend that you don’t do that until we’re pretty certain that the cash is going to be there to pay for everything that we’ve obligated so far.”

expose the public to the rich, thousands-year-old tradition of Indian music, Subhen Chatterjee, tabla player, said. “We want to project not only the musical beauty, but the rich tradition the music holds,” Chatterjee said. Chatterjee said he has been playing the tabla, a traditional Hindustani percussion instrument, since he was 5 years old. He said he has devoted his life to learning and mastering the instrument. “You have to start by prac-

The Tuition and Fees Strategies Committee rejected the university advising fee proposal at its Tuesday meeting. The $0.70 per-credit-hour fee increase would have affected nearly 20,000 undergraduate students and generated $350,000 per year. The allocated money would go in portions toward implementation of new advising and student success technology, funding professional development and hiring a director for the Office of University Advising. April Mason, provost and senior vice president, said some departments on campus, including Athletics, are currently trying out technological programs like GradesFirst and Student Success Collaborative, which have been paid for by the Office of the Provost. Mason said her office does not have the funds to continue to pay for the technology, especially after recent budget cuts. “If my budget continues to be pressured in this way, I won’t be able to continue to pay for it,” Mason said. The investment in academic advising with programs like Student Success Collaborative and GradesFirst, hiring a director and enhanced development would be expected to assist in improved student success, measured commonly by retention of first-time enrolling students and graduation rates. “I think the big challenge we have at this university is retention,” Stephen

Kucera, Student Governing Association speaker pro tempore and senior in music performance and accounting, said. Even though the committee rejected the fee, some of the members supported what the goal of the proposal. They recommended that the Office of Undergraduate Studies, which proposed the fee, seek funding from the Student Centered Tuition Enhancement. “SCTE is like the business incubator,” Joe Tinker, former SGA vice president and senior in psychology, said. SCTE, which has a $750,000 budget, allocates money to programs

around campus that are designated by SGA but cannot be funded by the central administration. “If we still have a year left before the subscriptions expires, why wouldn’t they present it to this committee (SCTE) and then have next year’s tuition fees go over it,” Candice Wilson, committee member and graduate student in agricultural economics, said. Mason said even if SCTE did not agree to pay for the program, there would still be enough time to reapply to the Tuition and Fees Committee before time ran out. The committee also discussed the fee increase proposal for the College

of Business Administration, which will likely be voted on at the meeting next week. The committee members discussed not approving the full $15 percredit-hour proposal but did not agree on an appropriate dollar amount or whether or not the full fee should be approved. “As someone who has worked with Dean (Kevin) Gwinner, (of the College of Business Administration), I think he has been the best dean to work with,” Kucera said. “He has been on top of his game and at this point is the reason why I am leaning towards saying yes to the entire thing.” Trenton Kennedy, committee member, student body vice president and sophomore in entrepreneurship, said he thinks the college has been transparent during the fee proposal process. “I don’t know what more the College of Business can give this committee in order to make a determination for the need and for the merit of this fee,” Kennedy said. The committee decided not to vote on the business fee proposal and to instead wait until next week’s meeting when more members would be in attendance. “It seems to me unanimous,” Andy Hurtig, co-chair of the committee, former student body president and senior in accounting, said. “Everyone is pretty pleased with the way (the College of Business) went about it and the information they’ve given us. I think it’s now just up to individual opinions on whether we think we can put the full fee on the back of students, none of it or part of it.”

Umi Japanese Steakhouse by Jon Parton & Tim Everson

HHHHI Ain’t nothing wrong with steak or sushi. Editor-in-Chief Jon Parton here along with Sports Editor Tim Everson on our never-ending quest to charge our bosses for our lunch bill. This time we decided to check out Umi Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar, at 900 Hayes Dr., to see if we could get a taste of Japan in the Little Apple.

ATMOSPHERE

Jon: If I ever want to appear classier than I really am to a date, I would go here. The large dining area, consisting of both dining tables and a hibachi grill area, is decorated in a mixture of Japanese-style artwork and TVs. I enjoyed the open space, but I knew the food would be the real test. Tim: It’s definitely a nice place. Nicer than my shorts and

pullover would have suggested. But it’s also approachable. Top 40 hits pervaded the air and various K-State football and basketball memorabilia filled some of the walls. This was a little out of place, considering the rest of the mostly posh decor, but it was certainly welcoming. I would probably dress up a little more on a return visit, but I definitely didn’t think that my shabbiness was looked down upon.

FOOD

Jon: I’ve been fortunate enough to try a few steak and sushi places, and I would rank Umi’s food as one of the better ones. We started off with a chicken negimaki appetizer, which consisted of assorted vegetables in a cream cheese sauce surrounded by a chicken roll. The combination of both sweet and savory flavors with the texture

Jon Parton, senior in political science and Collegian editor-in-chief, picks up a piece of chicken negimaki with his chopsticks while reviewing Umi Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar with Tim Everson, junior in English and Collegian sports editor on Tuesday. of the meat was something I’ve never experienced before. I ordered the chicken teriyaki bento box, which evoked a mixture of reactions from me. The chicken was a little dry and overcooked, but the roasted vegetables, prepared with a blend of spices, were peppery, citrusy and fantastic. Despite my minor disappointment, I thought the overall dishes were well done and worth coming back for. Tim: So Asian food in general centers a lot around seafood dishes, and Umi is certainly no different. Personally, I take after Bruce the shark and his company from “Finding Nemo” in that fish are my friends, not food. So, due to that, sushi (or any other fish dish) has

never been my bag. We started with a chicken negimaki roll, which was good. The chicken that it was all wrapped in was okay, but it didn’t do too much for me. I followed that with a house salad with a ginger dressing. The dressing had a nice citric tang, but overall the salad was nothing terribly special. For my main dish, I went with the sakura chicken. Basically a sweet and sour chicken dish, the sakura chicken was mixed with a sweet and sour sauce and a mixture of vegetables and pineapple. It was all very good, and the mound of white rice helped fill me up, allowing me to take a box for a later meal.

VALUE

Jon: I didn’t really feel the food was outrageously expensive, especially considering comparable restaurants. The bill averaged out to be about $12 a person — not bad for those looking for a decent dining experience without taking out a loan to finance it. Tim: While it maybe isn’t a spot for a single college guy to grab a quick bite to eat on the go, it definitely is classy enough for special occasions and affordable enough to not break the bank.

CITY COMM | Mayor: Tax increase needed for roads continued from page

Mayor Karen McCulloh said the pullback of state funding leaves the city with few choices of raising funds for street maintenance. “We’ve got to fix the roads, and we’ve looked at every opportunity,” McCulloh said. “The state’s budget is in the dumps, and we’re going to have to do it ourselves. ... I really am against sales tax, but I don’t see how we have any other options.” During the discussion, Butler said he thought about voting against the ballot proposal due to his distrust of other commis-

sioners to let other taxes expire in the future. “There’s a trust factor out there,” Butler said. “And I’m leaning towards voting no on this because I’m getting the feeling that the support for keeping these taxes down is not there from the commission.” City Commissioner Mike Dodson said that he felt all commissioners were on the same page regarding sales taxes. “I think everybody up here has at least one thing in common,” Dodson said. “We’re sensitive to taxes, also sensitive to getting the roads fixed.” The city commission passed the ballot proposal 5-0.

MUSIC | Indian style

gives crowd ‘diverse view’ continued from page

The group paused for a brief intermission, then resumed the performance by taking questions from the crowd relating to musical composition, the history of Indian music and their experiences playing the music. The performance closed with a musical tour of India, where the group played music inspired by different parts of the country. Joydeep Mitra, president of the Society for the Promotion of Indian Classical Music and Culture Amongst Youth and graduate student in computer science, said he believes public concerts exhibiting Indian music expose people to new styles of music

and sounds they may not have heard before. “From an American perspective, it is an opportunity to have a more diverse view of music that is different from the Western style,” Mitra said. “Indian music is very improvised, very diverse and structured much differently than what people are used to.” Mitra said Tuesday night’s performance was the second of its kind hosted by SPIC MACAY, the first of which drew a larger crowd; however, he was satisfied with Tuesday night’s turnout. “It’s always good to have more people show up, but I’d definitely say tonight has been very successful,” Mitra said.

Students save, splurge with tax returns KELSEY KENDALL the collegian

ince tax season has come and gone, many people have received or will soon be receiving their tax returns. From saving to splurging, there are many things students can do with the extra cash sitting in their bank accounts. The average tax return in 2014 was around $3,000, according to Allison Linn’s article “What Americans really do with tax returns.” While it is considered healthy to splurge a bit with tax returns — it can actually make people happier in the long run — the article reasons that splurging becomes a problem when bills and other necessities go unpaid due to spending extra on a vacation first. Splurging, however, means different things for different people. Some students won’t be spending their tax returns on something extra for themselves, but rather are using it to better their everyday living. “Just because (money is) coming in doesn’t mean you have to spend it all,” Ben Wietharn, freshman in business, said. Wietharn said his tax return will help him be a little less tight with his budget, and he plans to put it toward food and other things he might need. Having that extra money may also help students make the necessary purchases without

breaking the bank. Sarah Whitmore, senior in early childhood education, said she used part of her tax return to buy a new, much-needed bed. Though she has not decided what she is doing with the rest of the money, Whitmore said she is saving it for future necessities. “Saving it is pretty boring,” Whitmore said. “It’s what I did, but it’s not fun.” Sometimes, however, the things that really need to get paid for are not fun. Jarred Collom, freshman in construction science, said he had to use his tax return to pay for a speeding ticket he received shortly before getting his tax return. Collom said he wishes he had been able to spend his tax return “on anything but that.” When it comes to spending, a 2014 survey by Edward Jones found that only 8 percent of people plan to use their tax return for something like food or entertainment. This is compared to the more than 50 percent of people who plan on spending their returns to pay for necessities like bills or household expenses, according to Linn’s article. The survey also found that about 30 percent of people choose to save their tax returns instead, while about 8 percent plan on investing the extra money. “Don’t blow (tax returns) on things that don’t really matter, things that you don’t really need,” Whitmore said.

Football spring game will remain normal for Wildcats RILEY GATES the collegian

Karyn Elliott | THE COLLEGIAN

ARIES March 21 - April 19

The most important thing for you to remember this week is that the semester is almost over. There’s probably no way to save your grades, but you might be able to sweet talk your professors into at least passing you IF you show up to class and act like you know what you’re doing. Maybe ... but probably not.

TAURUS April 20 - May 20

Your professor will spring an excruciating pop quiz on you this week, which means it’s time to put those bullshitting skills of yours to the test. Might want to Google some information beforehand, though, to boost your luck.

GEMINI May 21 - June 20

Under the mountains and mountains of things you have to do these next few weeks, it is amazing that you are coping so well. You have managed to only snap at someone you actually enjoy the presence of only once! You should be proud that you’re handling things so well.

CANCER June 21 - July 22

No one likes a know-it-all, but that may change these last few weeks of the semester. Your classmates will constantly want to read your notes and copy your answers because “you’re just so smart” and they “could really use your help.”

LEO July 23 - Aug. 22

Your friend might be under a lot of pressure this week, so maybe surprise them with their favorite tasty treat! Don’t be alarmed if they start crying into that strawberry milkshake, though. They just haven’t slept in two days and it’s starting to get to them.

VIRGO Aug. 23 - Sept. 22

You know that person in your class that is constantly answering all your professor’s questions? Maybe it’s time to cozy up to them and see if you can snag some great notes to study with for finals week!

LIBRA Sept. 23 - Oct. 22

You’ve made some poor choices this semester. While partying is always way more fun than studying, you are now left facing the consequences of all those parties. Honestly, there’s no point in trying anymore. Just accept your fate and try to make better choices next semester.

SCORPIO Oct. 23 - Nov. 21

Remember when you were in high school and you were the teacher’s favorite? You could do no wrong. You slid right through classes. Yeah, well, college professors are way less nice. Stop trying to skate by on compliments and jokes. You’re still going to have to take the final.

SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 - Dec. 21

Maybe it’s time to finally open those textbooks. You’ve managed to go to class, but now the professor is expecting you to actually know the material too.

CAPRICORN Dec. 22 - Jan. 19

It’s no secret that you’re stressed out. Maybe find a good way to release some of that? Try a massage. Or exercise. Or get really drunk. Or get really drunk and flirt with that hottie you’ve been eyeing. What’s the harm?

AQUARIUS Jan. 20 - Feb. 18

Someone might approach you soon. They might be wasted. It will probably be the middle of the day. Try to be kind; you never know what they’re dealing with.

PISCES Feb. 19 - March 20

There will suddenly be, like, 50 people in your class that you’ve never seen before — which is odd because your professor has taken attendance all semester. You just assumed you were in a class of 12.

ome college football teams around the country are tweaking the way their spring games are held. For a few teams, these tweaks have included adding different ways to score points and not holding a “traditional football game.” This does not intrigue the K-State football program. When the Wildcats host their 2016 spring game this Saturday at Bill Snyder Family Stadium, it will be held just as a normal football game. Four quarters, 15 minutes each. A touchdown is worth six points. In other words, Saturday’s spring game will stay as it always has been for K-State head coach Bill Snyder. “I think it is just a matter of trying to keep it real, as much as anything,” Snyder said. “We consider the spring game as a 15th practice. It has always been a matter of just being able to replicate, as much as we possibly can, a gameday experience. Keeping score the way you would on a Saturday afternoon is probably just a part of it.” The format of the spring game was a highly talked about topic on Tuesday at the Vanier Family Football Complex for Snyder’s final press conference of spring practices. Keeping the format the same is something that players said will help prepare them for what lies ahead when the fall season rolls around. “I like it,” senior linebacker Charmeachealle Moore said. “It gets the guys who have not played in a routine of what a game day is like. We do it just like a game day. We go through everything, so we can help people get in the mentality of playing on game day.” Though the game itself will not be new, come Saturday there will be some new faces on the field. One area of consistent concern this spring is the fact that after the 2015 season, the Wildcats lost four of their five starters along the offensive line. Seeing which linemen take the field on Saturday in the starting lineup will be something to look out for. “(Offensive line) coach (Charlie) Dickey is doing a great job,” senior lineman Terrale Johnson said. “Everyone is out there competing. He is moving us all around; nothing is set in stone. His thing was there is no depth chart right now, so everyone is out there working hard.

Newspapers can be found in numerous locations around campus and the Manhattan area.

K-State head coach Bill Snyder talks with junior linebaker Charmeachealle Moore after a play during the Louisiana Tech football game at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Sept. 19, 2015. For him, it is who is going to compete for the starting spots. It is really just getting people on board.” Along with the offensive line, the quarterback battle was once again discussed at the press conference. There are three likely possibilities to take the snaps for the Wildcats in 2016: freshman Alex Delton, junior Jesse Ertz and senior Joe Hubener. Although there is competition between the fellow quarterbacks, Delton mentioned that they continue to help each other work and improve as time goes on. “(Ertz), specifically, is just a good friend,” Delton said. “We were both injured in the training room all last fall, so we got to spend a lot of time together. It’s not the time you want to spend together, but he has been a guy that has helped me ever since I got here. He has helped me become the best that I can

be, and if there is anything he needs, I will help him also. Our friendship definitely took the next step last fall when we both got hurt. That is something unfortunate, but we can build off of it and we can carry it out on the field.” Tuesday was the final time that Snyder and players met with the media prior to the spring game to discuss the team. And as the spring practices wind down, players are excited to do something different for a change. A little bit of friendly competition among the team is something that all players are looking forward to when 1:10 p.m. finally rolls around this Saturday. “It is very exciting,” sophomore running back Justin Silmon said. “Each day at practice has been pretty exciting. But having people out there watching, you just want to show them how much you have improved.”

K-State leaves 12 stranded in extra-inning loss RILEY GATES the collegian

-State had plenty of chances to beat Nebraska for the second time this season. For example, the Wildcats had a man on third base in the second inning but scored no runs. They also loaded the bases in the fifth inning with no outs but only managed one run in a situation that could have provided multiple runs. When it was all said and done, the Wildcats left 12 men on base in their 11-inning matchup against Nebraska. This was a large deciding factor in the Huskers’ 5-1 win in a game that lasted nearly four hours. “Somebody had to win tonight eventually,” K-State head coach Brad Hill said. “Thought we pitched it really well tonight. A bad thing takes place early in the game, (an injury), now all of a sudden you have to shuffle around and mix and match pitching with pinch-hitters. It’s one run on 11 hits, unfortunately.” The Huskers scored the game’s first run in the top of the fourth inning. Nebraska senior infielder Jake Placzek singled to start the inning. He was eventually followed by sophomore infielder Scott Schreiber, who walked on six pitches to put men on first and second for Nebraska.

Senior short stop Tyler Wolfe tags out a Nebraska player during the game between K-State and the University of Nebraska in Tointon Family Stadium on Tuesday. Sophomore outfielder Jake Meyers stepped to the plate next and took a 1-2 pitch to center field for a single. Placzek scored from second, giving the Huskers a 1-0 lead. K-State’s response came in the fifth inning with the bases loaded and no outs.

Freshman pitcher and pinch hitter Cory Wright popped a ball up into left field, which was caught for an out. But the ball was deep enough to give junior infielder Josh Ethier time to get from third to home and tie the game up at 1-1. Unfortunately for the Wildcats,

despite loading the bases, they only managed to put one run on the board when the final out of the inning was recorded. “No question, (it hurts),” Hill said of the lack of run production in the fifth. “Bases loaded, no outs, that should be a minimum of two,

but we only got one out of it. That’s part of it, and we did have some other opportunities. There’s enough hits on the board to have four or five runs.” The 11th inning is where the game — and a chance to beat Nebraska for the second time this season — got away from K-State. Singles in the top of the inning from senior catcher Taylor Fish and junior infielder Jake Schleppenbach allowed three Husker runs to cross the plate. A balk against K-State senior pitcher Lucas Benenati allowed another run to come home en route to Nebraska scoring four runs in the inning and taking the extra-inning game from the Wildcats by a fourrun win. The Wildcats look to shake off this loss as they are back in action again tonight. They will make a return trip to Papillion, Nebraska, to face the Omaha Mavericks inside Werner Park at 6:35 p.m. The Wildcats defeated the Mavericks 11-3 earlier this year at Tointon Family Stadium. “Unfortunately the rain chances don’t look good tomorrow,” Hill said. “You could see it out there, though, in their eyes like, ‘We want to go play tomorrow and get a win.’ That would be a good game for us headed into the weekend against Baylor and getting that winning feeling. It feels good to win. These guys know what it’s like to win.”

The K-State baseball team looks to rebound after losing 5-1 to Papillion, Nebraska on Tuesday night in 11 innings as the Wildcats travel to the University of Nebraska Omaha to take on the Mavericks at 6:35 p.m. today. K-State is 3-9 in Big 12 play and 16-21 overall while the Mavericks are 8-7 in the Summit League and 17-19 overall this season. This game will be a rematch of a game that took place on March 29 when the Wildcats defeated the Mavericks 11-3 in Manhattan. In that game, the Wildcats used a five-run fifth inning to propel them in the win. A key for the Wildcats was that they went 8-for-14 with runners in scoring position as senior outfielder Clayton Dalrymple and junior infielder Steve Serratore had three hits each in the winning effort. Right-handed freshman

starting pitcher Logan Wiley had a good night. He threw five scoreless innings and only allowed three hits and one walk. Wiley received the win in the game and retired nine straight batters. Omaha starting pitcher junior Brett Sasse only pitched 2.2 innings and allowed five runs and eight hits in the outing. That win for the Wildcats snapped a seven-game losing streak after they were swept by Oklahoma State the previous weekend. Omaha is just 3-8 since that loss to K-State and has lost its last five games, including a 7-6 loss to Kansas in 10 innings last week. The Mavericks offense has struggled as of late and they have only scored 15 runs in the past four games, but there has

been one good spot in the lineup. Maverick senior infielder Clayton Taylor is on a career-high, 27-game streak of being on base at least once, which is the most of any Maverick player since 2010. Another Maverick who is hitting well is sophomore infielder Ryan Cate, who is on an 18-game on-base streak. Taylor is leading the team in home runs as he has powered eight over the fence this season. He is also leading the team in RBIs at 51, with the next closest player at 19. After traveling to Omaha, the Wildcats will host the Baylor Bears for a three-game series in Manhattan at Tointon Family Stadium starting on Friday night. The Bears are 4-8 this season in conference play, 17-20 overall and have lost their last four games.
