Manhattan High awaits lab results from virus outbreak JULIA HOOD

THE COLLEGIAN

Among the 1,800 students in grades 9-12 who embody Manhattan High School, more than 100 students and faculty have been diagnosed with an unnamed illness. Michelle Jones, director of communications and school safety at Manhattan High School, said suspicions started when the school nurse noticed an unusual number of students becoming ill with vomiting, diarrhea and nausea around Aug. 18. “Those kinds of symptoms were weird for students to have this time of year,” Jones said. For a matter of about 10 days, roughly 15 students were being sent home each day with the symptoms. Students were asked to stay home 24 hours af-

ter their symptoms had cleared. “Some people have labeled the virus ‘norovirus,’ which is a gastrointestinal illness, and can cause a lot of the same symptoms,” Jennifer Green, administrative director for the Riley County Health Department, said. “But until we get back the lab results, we don’t know that’s what it is.” The Riley County Health Department and Kansas Department of Agriculture came to investigate about three weeks ago. Green said the investigation first involved calling all the parents of the sick students. They then have sent an online survey to parents asking for stool samples. “Those samples go to the state lab, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, to do the testing,” Green said. “They are testing right

now for everything. Currently, the state lab has sent those samples off to another lab for additional testing. They will do more extensive testing that will go beyond the capabilities of the state lab.” The lab has had two results come back positive for enteropathogenic E. coli, but it’s unlikely that those are related to the investigation. Heather Lansdowne, communications director for the Kansas Department of Agriculture, said the school asked them to do a food inspection. They didn’t find anything that would be connected with the virus related to food safety, she said. The Riley County Health Department, as well as the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and Kansas Department of Agriculture, sent the high school a clean-

they can see a decline in the numbers. Jones can attest to the de-

cline, as Tuesday afternoon, she said no students had been sent home for that day.

Students, faculty seek funding for multicultural student center said.

MIRANDA SNYDER THE COLLEGIAN

Since 2002, multicultural student enrollment at Kansas State has grown more than 50 percent, according to an informational pamphlet provided by the Office of Diversity. With the number of multicultural students increasing every year, the need for a multicultural student center has grown as well. Zelia Wiley, interim associate provost of diversity, has been working with many individuals inside and outside of K-State to start the groundwork on the project. “We want students to have that home,” Wiley said. “To really bring the awareness for our faculty and staff to be culturally competent and culturally sensitive, we want to have a building. We want to have something to represent that. Everyone needs a cultural home. What we plan to do is to use this center to really be that platform to show that excellence that we want to observe

Students socialize at the BSU Back to School Barbecue in the K-State Student Union Ballroom on Aug. 27. in cultural competency, inclusive and diversity.” Wiley said the foundation of the project has been laid, including the rendering and investigation. An architect was contracted and designs were made for a building that will cost more than

$15 million. The final design of the building will most likely change for cost as the project is still lacking major donors. Nicole Askew, director of development of university programs, said most of the buildings on campus are funded through

philanthropy, and believes the multicultural student center can be completed for a lesser amount. “As far as fundraising, we’re looking to alums and friends of K-State as well as corporation and (Kansas State University) Foundation support,” Askew

Wiley said although most of the planning and consultation surrounding the project has been with campus leaders and possible donors, students have still been involved in the process. Muenfua Lewis, former Black Student Union president and senior in finance, has been working with the Diversity 2025 initiative, which is focusing on the needs of students of color at K-State. “Regardless if you’re a student of color, whether you’re a minority or not, this building benefits everybody,” Lewis said. “To me, everyone has a stake in making sure this building gets built and that it’s built to serve the community as well as highlighting and definitely standing firm to being a multicultural building. It will definitely benefit students in the long run and will educate the entire Kansas State University community. It will serve as a reminder of Kansas State University’s commitment to diversity.” Tamyia Rowell, senior in operation supply chain manage-

ment, agreed with Lewis that the construction of a multicultural student center is needed on campus. “We as multicultural students, we need somewhere to go that is just full of us,” Rowell said. “We go to class every day and we see people that are the majority and we’re always the minority. We want somewhere where we can be the majority. BSU has their own efforts towards getting it done and we partnered with Jessica Elmore over in the Alumni Center. So just staying in contact with her and letting her know when we can be available to talk to sponsors or things like that.” According to Wiley, in order for ground to be broken, more awareness needs to be brought to the project and a lot of funding is needed. “If we break the ground for this, it will speak volumes to the students that we recruit,” Wiley said. “We say we’re the university of choice for multicultural students in the state of Kansas, but you can’t do that if you’re not putting it in action.”

Q&A: Athletics Director John Currie talks about expansion SCOTT POPP

THE COLLEGIAN

he Collegian had the chance to sit down with Kansas State Athletics Director John Currie in the newsroom, and here’s what he had to say about Big 12 Conference expansion, SGA resolutions against BYU and football head coach Bill Snyder. Collegian: There’s been a lot of talk about Big 12 expansion lately, with as many as 12 teams still in the running. What can you tell us about how that process of finding new teams is going? Currie: I think our league has tremendous strengths and we have tremendous value, brand value. If you look at the competitive excellence of our league, the quality of our league from

a fan perspective where you have nine conference games in football, you got 18 conference games and a full round robin in basketball, if anything our league is too competitive, internally at least. That’s one of the challenges in all the sports. There’s no easy out in the Big 12 in basketball like there is in some other conferences, so I think we have great strength. We’ve also got great strength in women’s sports. We have the best attendance in a bunch of sports, we have great TV contracts that go through 2025-26, we have a grant of rights, so we’ve got a lot of things going for us but you’re always trying to asses your opportunities. I could make an argument for the Big 12 at 10; I could make an argument for the Big 12 at 14; I could make an argument for the Big 12 at 12; I could make an argument for the Big 12 at 16; I could make about

any argument in the world. At the end of the day, I’m not the one that makes the decision, I just implement what’s decided. Collegian: What do you prefer? 10? 12? Currie: I prefer whatever the board decides. You know we’re extremely fortunate, we’ve had (former K-State President) Kirk Schulz, who was a great chair on the Big 12 board, and also very involved at the NCAA level. And (Interim President Gen. Richard Myers) has come in and hasn’t missed a beat. Obviously with his training and background, he’s got a great perspective and is used to working with board dynamics and group dynamics. He’s come right in and been very impactful already in his comments and his assessment of the situation. Collegian: There has been a lot of talk about

K-State Athletics Director John Currie answers questions during an Ask Me Live on Nov. 10, 2015. BYU with Iowa State SGA passing a resolution to not allow them in the Big 12 because of their honor code that bans homosexuality, and there have been talks of doing the same here. What do you think of those things, and do you think that’ll have an impact on

expansion? Currie: I believe that if our student government chooses to make such a thing, then I’m very supportive of that. I believe that what I’ve seen in my time here, generally speaking, our students make very good decisions, and our student government is very

thoughtful about how they go about things, so I’ll be fully supportive of whatever our SGA decides to do on that issue, and I’ve expressed such to (student body President Jessica Van Ranken). see page

Goalie Miranda Larkin uses experience to help team, build program SHELTON BURCH THE COLLEGIAN

Junior goalkeeper Miranda Larkin may not be the oldest member of the Kansas State soccer team, but if you asked her, she might tell you she sees herself that way. “I probably would play more of the mom role of the team, just sending out reminders constantly and stuff like that,” Larkin said. “That’s what I do.” Larkin said she first realized she wanted to play goalkeeper when she was put in net around age 10 for another girl who was struggling. “I haven’t let go of it since,” Larkin said. Larkin attended high school in Rockwall, Texas, and was listed as an ESPN Top 150 recruit coming out of high school. After graduation, Larkin

Junior goalkeeper Miranda Larkin, who transferred from Oklahoma, has helped K-State earn its first two wins. attended Oklahoma University, where she played in four games during the 2013 season before redshirting in 2014. She then decided to transfer to K-State. “I was really excited about

the soccer opportunities at K-State,” Larkin said. “Coming on a visit here, (and) meeting with the coaches, I just got really excited about the program and building this program. It was a

great opportunity, and I took it.” Head coach Mike Dibbini said he has been impressed with Larkin’s patience and how she’s remained composed through the process of starting the new soccer program at K-State. “She’s always competitive and she has that experience,” Dibbini said. “It’s just more of understanding that it’s a process, and she reminds the team and reminds herself that as we’re going through this process and staying competitive that it’s going to be a process.” Redshirt sophomore defender Haley Sutter plays near Larkin on the pitch, and said Larkin’s experience at OU has helped other members of the team, and not just on the field. “Off the field, she’s like a mother to all of us,” Sutter said. “She’s one of the oldest on the team, so she kind of takes us in under her wing. She’s been do-

ing this longer than us so she kind of acts like a parent figure to us.” Dibbini said that while all three goalkeepers on the Wildcat roster are good, Larkin’s experience at OU definitely shows. “She brings the experience factor,” Dibbini said. “Playing at the Big 12 level, an obviously high level and being around it for a few years before her transfer here, helps her out quite a bit because she’s gone through the adversity of knowing what it takes and facing those types of opponents. I would say that in itself speaks volumes.” Dibbini said Larkin is a leader both on and off the field. “She does a lot for us to keep us moving in the right direction,” Dibbini said. “She’s one of our captains and she knows what it takes to play at this level, so she shares a lot of her experiences. Sutter said Larkin helps di-

rect things for the team, often helping them start plays. She also said Larkin is very good at talking to defenders and is extremely confident. “She gets us comfortable on the ball,” Sutter said. “I thrive off her confidence.” That confidence has not only benefited her teammates, but has helped her wrack up imposing statistics this season. In the six games Larkin has started this season, she has earned shutouts in three of them, good for No. 30 in the nation in that category. She has also recorded a .892 save percentage, which ranks her No. 23 nationally. She has been the goalkeeper in net during each of K-State’s two wins this season. Larkin is expected to start when the Wildcats take on the University of Northern Iowa Panthers at 7 p.m. Friday at the K-State Soccer Complex.

Professor Bryan Pinkall inspires students with Olympic successes, more JENA ERNSTING THE COLLEGIAN

The Olympic spark for Bryan Pinkall, assistant professor of music, was lit when he was sitting in his grandparent’s living room as a child. Pinkall said he was mesmerized by the 1992 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony in Barcelona, Spain, where the cauldron inside the stadium was lit by a flaming arrow shot from outside the stadium. “The spectacle blew my mind, as a little kid,” Pinkall said. “Ever since then I’ve been really fascinated with the Olympics.” Pinkall traded in his office in Kansas to take on the role of assistant manager of protocol for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Pinkall said he oversaw protocol segments, which are anything required by the International Olympic Committee, like anthems, the parade of nations, oaths, and flag raising. Having just graduated from the UMKC with his doctorate, Pinkall was jobless and applying for a variety of opportunities, one of which was an opportunity to work for the Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Pinkall said his application was followed by a couple years of interviews and testing before he was offered the opportunity. “I did it in Sochi, so I thought I would give Rio a try,”

stay

Pinkall said. “So I applied and did all those things again.” Pinkall’s success has had an impact on Kansas State, as well as his students, Talia Falcon, senior in music education, said. “Dr. Pinkall is a graduate of K-State, and I think his work ethic is a direct reflection of how the K-State School of Music, Theater and Dance teaches and prepares their students,” Falcon said. Not only are Pinkall’s successes inspiring, but for students from Kansas to see Pinkall, someone born and raised in Kansas, getting to this point in his career helps bring a different perspective to his teaching, Falcon said. Not only did the Barcelona opening ceremony start his fascination with the Olympics, Pinkall said it also helped him find his passion for the opera. Pinkall said the opera was integrated into the Barcelona Olympics as well as the opening ceremony in Atlanta, Georgia, where one whole artistic moment was composed of an opera, which told the history of the South. “It solidified my passion of the ceremony,” Pinkall said. “It’s an art form, and it doesn’t get a lot of study academically in the world. Unequivocally, it’s the world’s largest art form and it is seen by more people than any art form on the planet.” Because the Olympic opening ceremonies are not often studied as an art form, Pinkall

said he has found a niche writing and researching the histories of the ceremonies. He posts his findings within a small online community interested in the subject. When asked if he would be looking at applying for another opportunity with the Olympics, Pinkall said he was not sure. Pinkall said working with the Olympics is only one slice of what he does. He sings with the Kansas City Chorale, which won a Grammy award earlier this year. Pinkall also performs on his own. “It is incredible that (Pinkall) is so young and has been this successful strictly from his hard work and drive,” Falcon said. Even with all of his accomplishments, Nick Overbey, junior in music education, said Pinkall is really humble. “(Pinkall is) one of the must humble guys I know and most achieving that I have met, so it’s a good combination of those two,” Overbey said. Pinkall said a good failure in his life was when he was rejected from schools he applied to, ultimately leading him to K-State. Without those rejections, he wouldn’t be where he is now, he said. “I think any professional musician would say the majority of things they try to do, they fail at,” Pinkall said. “So you keep trying and not be afraid to fail because eventually some of these opportunities come your way.”

Engineering department head offers variety of specialties AUTUMN MOCK THE COLLEGIAN

obert Stokes, department head and professor of civil engineering, has been a member of the Kansas State community for the past 25 years, and has held a multitude of jobs along the way. Aside from his current role as the department head and professor, Stokes also teaches highway safety training courses for county highway personnel and is the director of the annual Transportation Engineering Conference held at K-State. “Many people, both leaders and faculty, have come and gone but Dr. Stokes is still here at K-State as a valuable asset and a resource,” Sunanda Dissanayake, civil engineering professor, said. Before coming to K-State in 1991, Stokes worked at the Texas Transportation Institute, a research organization at Texas A&M. “We were raising three young daughters and decided Houston, the big city, wasn’t where we wanted to raise our children,” Stokes said. “So I started looking around for a small-town university, applied a few places, got an offer here and have been here ever since.” Since his move to Manhattan, Stokes has spent numerous years teaching students about transportation

and highway engineering. “Prior to assuming the department head position I was just a ‘POP,’ plain old professor,” Stokes said. Three years ago, Stokes became the interim head of the civil engineering department following the death of previous department head, Alok Bhandari. “We had just hired a new, energetic department head, and he contracted some rare cancer and declined very quickly and died within a year and a half of coming here,” Stokes said. “They asked me if I wanted to step up and become interim head, and I had the faculty support to do that so I took over with the intent of doing it for a year or so.” Then during the department’s search for a full-time head, Stokes applied for the position primarily because of the ideas circulating throughout the university at the time between former President Schultz’s 2025 vision and Darren Dawson, the new dean of the College of Engineering, who Stokes said had great ideas and plans to advance the college. “In the years I’ve been here, it was one of the more exciting times for the university in terms of somebody wanting to really elevate the university to another level in regards to its reputation and coming out with innovative programs and inspiring faculty to go on to bigger and better things,” Stokes said.

Robert Stokes, department head and professor of civil engineering, specializes in transportation planning and research. He has been with K-State since 1991. Stokes was drawn in by the challenge of being able to be a part of that change and redefining direction. “Professor Stokes is a very dedicated engineer,” David Steward, civil engineering professor, said. “He is somebody who has a great awareness for the field and where the field is going.” Despite his advancement within the civil engineering department, Stokes said that he’s not the typical academician in terms of disposition, education and background

since his whole life has not been centered around academia. “I didn’t go right from high school to college and into academia,” Stokes said. “I’ve been out in the world a bit.” After receiving his doctorate in urban and regional planning, Stokes worked as a city traffic engineer, a city planner in Columbus, Ohio, and a full-time research planner and engineer during his time at Texas A&M. Dissanayake said that his

total of 40 years of experience in civil and transportation engineering has become a valuable asset in serving all his constituents. During his time pre-academia, Stokes also served as a door gunner on a Chinook helicopter in Vietnam in the late 1960s. “Anyone who’s been through things like that, it gives you a very different perspective in terms of what’s important,” Stokes said. “I think that may lend somewhat to my laid-back person-

ality when it comes to dealing with matters in academia.” His faculty members also notice this calm way about him. “He is overseeing all activities in the civil engineering department all while keeping that cool and collected demeanor,” Dissanayake said. Stokes said he cares very much for the faculty and people he works with and for. One of his favorite parts about working for K-State is the people he encounters, he said. “I’m really impressed with the quality and disposition of our students,” Stokes said. “They’re heartland America, they have a great work ethic, they’re honest and hardworking.” While he thoroughly enjoys his position at the university, outside of work, Stokes said he has a hobby of his own. As a child of the ‘60s, he played in a garage band, and he even still spends part of his time collecting and restoring old guitars. “I don’t play very well, but the engineer in me wants me to take them apart, put them back together, buy, sell and trade them,” Stokes said. “That’s kind of my therapy.” While many academicians center their life around the academic world, Stokes said that his mixed background as well as the supportive community at K-State has aided him in what he does today.
