Police Reports

Driver, passenger hospitalized Sarah Rajewski | Collegian A two-vehicle accident was reported Friday morning, said Lt. Herbert Crosby Jr. of the Riley County Police Department. Elsa Fritz, 29, of No. 22 Waterway Place, pulled out from a stop sign on Frontage Road across west-bound traffic of U.S. Route 24 east, according to a report by the RCPD. Fritz pulled out in front of Michael Anderson, 22, of Holton, Kan., according to the report. Fritz was transported by EMS to Mercy Regional Health Center for injuries, and Fritz’s passenger, a 19-month-old, had no injuries, but was transported with Fritz for observation and evaluation, according to the report. Anderson was transported to an unknown location by a private vehicle for his injuries. Crosby said the accident is still under investigation.

Japanese festival entertains, educates with events Karen Ingram | Collegian The K-State Student Union came to life with Japanese food, music and culture on Saturday. The Central Kansas Japanese Festival entertained students and families while giving them chances to learn more about Japanese people and culture. Some of the events included a Bon dance performance by the Himeringo Little Apple Japanese Society, an Aikido demonstration performed by the KSU Aikido Club, Japanese bingo, a tea ceremony and a spoken word poetry performance. Festivalgoers also had opportunities to learn about calligraphy and origami, to try mochi cake and rice balls at the food sale and to browse Japanese products sold at the bazaar. Shohei Sato, sophomore in economics and host of the Central Kansas Japanese Festival, introduced each event in the Union Courtyard with such enthusiasm that the crowds cheered for him whenever he approached the microphone. Sato also participated in Japanese bingo, in which participants won prizes while learning about Japan’s famous sites, food and 47 prefectures, which are governmental subdivisions of the country. Sato said this was his second year as host for the festival, and that presenting Japanese bingo was his favorite part of the evening. “I really love to ... emcee. I want to have more experience,” Sato said. Holly Kier, junior in chemical engineering, also said bingo was her favorite part of

the evening. She said she has participated in bingo at previous Japanese festivals, but had never seen one that incorporated learning about the prefectures of Japan. Kier said she thought this would encourage people to want to learn more. Kier said she has been to seven Japanese

festivals, mostly at K-State and in the Kansas City area, which is where she is from. Her brother, who now lives and works in Japan, introduced her to her love of Japan with her first festival in 2005. “Every opportunity someone has to learn about the world, they should take,” said Kier. K-State Japanese Yosakoi Dance Club performed after bingo. The club recently traveled to the Cherry Blossom Festival in San Francisco, the second largest Japanese festival in the country, where it performed with hundreds of other dancers. “It’s so much fun, getting out there and getting on stage,” said Micah Weltsch, graduate student in history. “It’s so energizing,” Weltsch said he has been performing with the dance club since it was founded six years ago. He has had the opportunity to perform with the club in Japan twice. The club currently has about 12 members, which Weltsch said is a little smaller than usual. He said members would like to see more people join next semester. “It’s great for beginners and experienced dancers alike,” Weltsch said. “Give it a try, because you never know until you try,” The club practices in the Union Courtyard every Tuesday night at 7 p.m. Next, viewers were treated to a magic act by Yasu Ishida. Ishida said he became interested in magic when he came to the U.S. He graduated from the Chavez Studio of Magic and has performed all over the country.

A local woman reported the theft of $5,460 of electronics, most of which were recovered through investigation, according to the RCPD. Savanna Nightengale, 23, of 1215 Laramie St., Apt. 319, reported the theft, which happened at her apartment sometime Thursday between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., Crosby said. According to the report, items taken and recovered through investigation included two cameras, four camera lenses, a camera flash, a Macintosh laptop and charger, a cable converter, an HD cable and an iPod charger. Two Olympus lenses have not been returned, according to the report. Crosby said the investigation is still continuing, and police have a couple suspects in the case.

VAN REPORTED STOLEN

In addition to the copper stolen sometime Tuesday or Wednesday at Shilling Construction, Crosby said a van was stolen around the same time as the other burglary. Clayton Smith, 31, homeless, was arrested Wednesday and charged with the burglary of the copper, which happened at 321 McDowell Creek Road, according to the RCPD report. The stolen van was a 1995 Nissan Quest worth about $2,000. Crosby said Smith is a suspect as the copper burglary occurred around the same time that the van was reported stolen. Police recovered the van on the K-State campus, according to the report.

Wizard rock draws Potter fans, raises money for First Book Tiara Williams | Collegian A record crowd of 285 fans screamed and danced the night away Saturday. Audience members were in Hogwarts attire for their favorite wizard rock bands at “The Hallows and Horcruxes Ball 3: A Wizard Rock Concert for Literacy,” which was in the KState Student Union Ballroom. Performers included The Parselmouths, Justin FinchFletchley and the Sugar Quills, The Moaning Myrtles, Gred and Forge, The Whomping Willows, The Remus Lupins, Ministry of Magic and Draco and the Malfoys, in between other acts. All performed their wizard rock songs. Wizard rock music connects to characters in the “Harry Potter” books. Bands write songs based on how certain characters would think, say or feel. Songs are also about events and situa-

Sami Voshell, resident of Omaha, Neb., was buy-

ing things from several bands, although she said Ministry of Magic is her favorite one. She said she accidentally found the band online.

“I have been listening to this mainly online phenomenon since 2006,” Voshell said. She said she went to the concert last year after begging her mom to take her. Voshell said the easiest way to hear new information about what is going on with the groups is through MySpace.com or by becoming a fan of a band’s Facebook.com page. These sites led fans from all over the United States to see the live concert and to support First Book, a nonprofit literacy organization that distributes books to children, particularly underprivileged and underrepresented children. The event raised $1,000 for an organization that provides books to children in need, said Karin Westman, head of the English department. Sponsors and band members have chosen First Book

‘Senior’ prom allows couples to reconnect, remember

Photos by Chelsy Lueth | Collegian

Above: Walking into the annual Senior Citizen prom, Rhonda Lloyd and Mark Fullington, Clay Center residents, head for their seats. The prom, which took place at the Jon and Ruth Ann Wefald Pavilion and GTM Family Center in City Park, consisted of a meal and a dance with live music.

Jones said she has been happily married for 55 years and that she appreciates the chance to dine and dance, just as she did in her high school days. Many couples took advantage of the music, played by the Bobby Layne Orchestra, as they two-stepped and waltzed. There was a surplus of empty tables as the majority of the attendees eased their way onto

Heather Scott | Collegian An elegantly dressed couple in their mid-70s chatted easily at an ornate table on Saturday night. They reminisced about their own high school senior prom 55 years ago. But Saturday night, the Jon and Ruth Ann Wefald Pavilion and GTM Family Center in City Park was not quite the same; this senior prom catered to senior citizens, giving them a chance to shimmy and shake to familiar tunes and to enjoy a

the dance floor. Jones said she enjoyed the opportunity to hear some familiar and classy tunes, as opposed to the popular music of today. The City of Manhattan Parks and Recreation Department sponsors many events for senior citizens. Ashley Penner, recreation coordinator for the city, organized the event and encouraged people to participate. She said this prom was meant to cater specifically to seniors, allowing them to reconnect with

acquaintances in the Manhattan area. Penner said she looks forward to the yearly event, as it is one of the largest coordinated events for senior citizens in the area. Attendance at the event exceeded her expectations this year, Penner said. Ornately dressed tables scattered the dining room, along with a blackand-silver balloon terrace where couples could have their photos taken. A table set up in the middle of the dining room was host to

eight friends, laughing and enjoying their evening. “We met after high school, on a blind date,” said attendee Coe Colten of her husband Frank. Gesturing toward Joe Davis, who sat to her right, she said “We were set up by Joe, who dated my best friend.” Coe said many of the attendees had been friends since college and appreciated the opportunity to catch up with one another. “We really appreciate the event,” Coe said.

Manhattan Arts Center exhibit pairs poetry, sculptures by Michaela Valli Groeblacher, paired with poetry by Kim Stanley. Sculpture and poetry were the primary display, entitled “Parallel Tones: Exhibit in Clay and Wood.” Hodges offered about 15 pieces for the display in the front room of the arts center, which included everything from pictures of the moon and close-up shots of flowers to pictures of Anderson Hall and the power plant on campus. Hodges said he never took any classes or received technical training for photography, but instead gained most of his knowledge from the Internet.

Austin Enns | Collegian Photography, sculpture and poetry are three different art forms that most people do not associate one with the others. Art lovers turn to museums for paintings, galleries for photography and books for poetry. Friday night, the Manhattan Arts Center opened two separate exhibits that brought artwork from these different categories together in the same building. The display in the first room was photography by Chris Hodges, and the second room contained a sculpture display

(785) 539-9557

Hodges said one of the pieces, titled “Shadow Moon” — a picture of the moon and surrounding clouds at night — was a longterm project for him. “I’ve been trying a couple years to get a shot like that,” Hodges said. “And it took awhile to get the right setting and exposure.” The second exhibit consisted of 20 white blocks, each containing a life-sized bust of a person. Busts were in groups with names such as “Menopause,” “Forces of Nature” and “Women with Eggs.” On the front of the white block, for the majority of busts, there was a poem related

to the sculpture. Stanley said Groeblacher originally had the idea to collaborate after hearing Stanley’s poetry at a writer’s conference. Not all the poems were created originally for the busts, though. Stanley said some of the poems have been works in progress for years, and others resulted from combining several previous poems. “Parallel Tones” was a process that took more than two years to complete, and the Manhattan Arts Center is the first place it has ever been displayed. Groeblacher said the process takes a week to sculpt each

piece and another three weeks for each bust to dry out so painting can begin. The sculptures were modeled after photos of real people, and Groeblacher said she tried to add meaning to the sculptures. “I’m not trying to capture their personality, but their looks in order to make a statement,” Groeblacher said. The exhibits are being displayed at the Manhattan Arts Center, located at 1520 Poyntz Ave., until May 29. The galleries are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays.

Standing Together

Attention to self can lessen courtesy Rachel Spicer

Illustration by Whitney Bandel

US needs to focus on issues that unite, not divide Jessica Hensley Over the next few months, hundreds of polls will be conducted across the U.S. to predict the outcome of the midterm elections. These polls will range in topic from gay rights, to abortion, to gun control, to taxes, to the Ten Commandments. However, it doesn’t matter what the topic is, as all of these polls will inevitably prove one point: Americans disagree on everything. Not only do we disagree, we disagree vehemently. In a Gallup Poll conducted earlier this year, more than two-thirds of Americans report giving “quite a lot” of thought to the elections this year. This is the highest such number Gallup has recorded since the last elections in 2008. It’s comforting to know people are paying attention.

Unfortunately, all of this focus on the election seems to go hand-in-hand with a focus on what divides us as a nation. We hear fierce debate on talk shows, on newscasts and even from the candidates on politically and socially divisive issues like abortion and gay rights. It is easy to believe that is what the election should be about, but such a belief is incorrect. Though there are many issues on which people do not agree, there are a few — a very important few — on which we do. According to interviews with American citizens that were conducted during President Obama’s last senatorial campaign, there are some beliefs that seem to hold true across the board: those regarding race, religion and class. For example: the belief that anyone who is willing to work should be able to find a job that pays a decent wage. Or the belief that we should leave the next generation better off than the ones that came before. The desire to be safe from both criminals and terrorists. The desire for clean air and clean water. The desire to be able to spend time at home with family.

These hopes that we will forever hold in common should define the next elections, not those issues that divide us. In choosing who will represent us in the years to come, we are choosing the voice of our people. The whole nation must be behind a final decision on election night — not just the voters who check certain names at the polls, voting along divisive party lines. It is important that we choose representatives who are genuinely looking to help our country move forward and not just looking for another partisan political victory. Social progress will not be made by one side forcing the other to bend to its political will. It will be made through discussion and compromise and remembering that there is much more that unites us than divides us. It is only in focusing on reaching those goals we have in common, rather than focusing on those issues on which we will never agree, that we as a nation will be able to move forward. Jessica Hensley is a senior in political science. Please send comments to opinion@spub.ksu.edu.

As many people know, we are in the era where “Generation Me” is growing up and going out into the world. There have been books written and studies conducted about the possible “narcissism epidemic.” Personally, I find this relatively scary. Generation Me is characteristically full of entitlement, extreme self-esteem and inability to accept criticism. People of this generation are often overly direct and tend to take the it’s-notmy-fault victim role. As a member of this generation, I observe most of these examples occurring every day and have displayed some of these characteristics myself. It seems as though, in our attempts to make our lives all that we were taught they could be, we have lost our chivalry toward others. People are too self-centered for their own good anymore. We are so caught up in our own schedules we do not do simple things, such as hold the door open for one another or stop our cars to let people cross the street. The generation is not all negative; we have ambition and most of us grow up knowing college is the next step and that we can accomplish anything. Times have changed significantly, and there are more problems that need to be addressed as a country. Our generation has the mindset to tackle some of these, or at least improve them significantly. We just need to be sure to remember the world does not revolve around us; we need to be courteous to our neighbors. If we are not careful, our generation will lead into self-destruction because everyone will be working on their own self-centered agendas. Rachel Spicer is a junior in civil engineering.

Helping others learn important skills pays for itself

Chuck Fischer Two weekends ago, I was indoctrinated into a community of very caring individuals who do marvelous work for no pay at all. Instead, these people work only for the feeling of joy that overcomes them when they help people achieve things they never thought they could. I have been around this community of men and women for several years now. In fact, back when I was 7 years old, I got my first taste of the kind of work these volunteers do. I knew then I wanted to be a part of this community someday. The job these folks do is not really mentally challenging. In fact, they all have a passion for what they are passing onto others that helps alleviate the stress most outsiders would think we endure. Granted, the work is physical and done outdoors, but the end result is well worth it.

Nowhere else that I think of will 10 people from around the state drive to a house right outside of Alden, Kan., to work for a solid eight hours without pay or compensation except a free meal from the host. Where will you find people willing to donate their entire Saturday for the benefit of something greater than themselves? These people know their sweat and blood are going toward making other people’s lives better. That’s all that matters to them. So far, it seems like I might be talking about a charitable organization or some sort of fundraising group. Well, in fact, these honorable people passing on their passion to others are Hunter Education Instructors. That Saturday of work happened about a month ago. Ten people, from Paola, Kan., to Pratt, Kan., came together at a small farmstead to work on some trail walk supplies for future students to use. These people could not hear one another, but somehow they all worked together and produced. As I said, two weekends ago, I was indoctrinated into this great group of people when I officially became a licensed Kansas State Hunter Education Instructor. I’ve been help-

ing teach the classes around the state for some time now. Being a national champion trap shooter, I am generally located at the shotgun shooting station for the outdoors portion of the class. Let me tell you, there is nothing better than seeing a young girl smile from ear to ear when she breaks her first target and knowing that without your help, she might not have ever used a shotgun in her life. There’s something to be said for that moment. When that happens, it is generally after the young woman has told me she will not hit anything. Showing people they can in fact do something they did not believe they could is what makes it worthwhile for me to be an instructor. The students can tell how passionate I am about hunting and how passionate I am about teaching them proper techniques for firearm safety both afield and at home. It is incredible to think during 2009, there were a total of 12 hunting incidents with no fatalities. Granted, everyone would like to see the number reduced to zero, but humans do make errors and incidents occur. Accidents are not preventable; all hunting incidents could

have been prevented. However, 12 incidents is a small percentage of the approximately 271,000 hunters who spent more than 3,000,000 hours afield during the season. The main reason there were so few of accidents is because there are more better educated hunters afield. Where did these hunters learn their proper ethical hunting techniques? They learned them from some of the approximately 1,300 volunteer instructors like myself. No matter what your stance on hunting, it is hard to argue that teaching people how to become ethical hunters is bad. I honestly believe without hunter education classes, the number of incidents would be much higher. If that were the case, one of my favorite pastimes would probably be outlawed. So, thank you fellow instructors. Thank you for doing what you do and allowing me to become a part of a great organization. It really is an honor to know I am teaching people about one of my passions and hopefully, they remember what they learned and will help keep this passion of mine alive.

Strong pitching characterizes K-State’s sweep of Baylor Justin Nutter | Collegian After falling victim to a midweek sweep last week at Brigham Young, it looked like the K-State baseball team was in a rut. Brad Hill and co. silenced that theory in a hurry as the No. 20 Wildcats recorded a three-game sweep of the Baylor Bears over the weekend at Tointon Family Stadium.

K-STATE 5, BAYLOR 2

Four first-inning runs provided the Wildcats with all the offense they needed to dispose of the Bears, as they took the series opener by a score of 5-2 on Friday. The Wildcats got to Baylor starter Shawn Tolleson early and often in the opening frame as seven K-State hitters came to the plate in the inning. Three doubles and two hit batters led to an early exit by Tolleson, who was pulled with just one out. Tolleson’s counterpart, K-State senior Ryan Daniel, kept Baylor off the scoreboard for the first two innings, but allowed a pair of runners to cross the plate in the third. Daniel got out of the inning and had little trouble keeping the Bears in check for the remainder of his outing. He ran into some trouble in the fifth and left the game with runners on first and second and nobody out. Junior reliever Thomas Rooke came in and coaxed a double play to end the scoring threat. “That was the turning point,” head coach Brad Hill said of the double play. “Obviously, first and second with no outs, you usually think you’re going to get at least one, if not two. That was a huge momentum swing in our way.” Rooke kept that momentum and went on to throw four perfect innings, striking out five. Sophomore closer James Allen came on in the ninth and retired the Bears in order to clinch the win. Offensively, K-State was led in the contest by junior first baseman Kent Urban, who went 3-of-4 from the plate and drove in a run. Urban was one of four Wildcats to record a multihit game.

K-STATE 5, BAYLOR 2

The Wildcats’ strong pitching in the opener carried over into Saturday’s game, as K-State grabbed a 5-2 victory for the second day in a row. Sophomore starter Kyle Hunter was nearly flawless from the mound, throwing six innings of one-run baseball. He took a no-hitter into the seventh, but was pulled after giving up a leadoff double. The native of Galesburg, Ill., received a standing ovation from the crowd as he made his way to the dugout. “Kyle was outstanding today, and he had to be because [Baylor starter]

Logan Verrett is very good,” Hill said. “We had to have an effort like that to even have a chance. It was just an unbelievable pitching duel.” K-State grabbed a quick 1-0 lead in the first inning on an RBI groundout by sophomore outfielder Nick Martini, and then the game turned into a classic pitcher’s duel. After the early slipup, Verrett matched Hunter pitch for pitch for four innings. The Wildcats finally broke through in the sixth, scoring a pair. Baylor scored single runs in the seventh and ninth to keep things close, but two more runs by K-State in the eighth inning ultimately put the game out of reach and gave the Wildcats the series victory. Martini, who recently broke the school record for consecutive games with at least one hit, enjoyed a solid day at the plate. He was 1-of-2 with two walked, two runs scored and two runs batted in. Junior shortstop Carter Jurica also made his presence felt, going 3-of-4 and scoring twice.

K-STATE 3, BAYLOR 2

Not to be outdone by Hunter, sophomore starter Justin Lindsey was strong in the series finale on Sunday, throwing 6.1 innings and giving up just one unearned run in a 3-2 victory that capped off the sweep. Lindsey entered the seventh inning with a 3-0 lead, but he was pulled after a passed ball resulted in Baylor’s first run of the game. With the win, Lindsey improves to 3-2 on the season. “I thought [Lindsey] was outstanding,” Hill said. “I thought he did a great job of confusing them. We saw a lot of swings that were definitely off time.” An eighth-inning solo shot by Gregg Glime cut K-State’s lead to 3-2, but sophomore reliever Evan Marshall retired the Bears to preserve the victory. The Wildcats plated a pair in the third on RBIs by Jurica and Martini and added the decisive run when Martini scored on a wild pitch in the sixth. The native of Crystal Lake, Ill., stayed hot from the plate, going 2-of-3 and walking once. Martini and the Wildcats will return to action on Tuesday when they travel to Wichita for a midweek game against Wichita State. First pitch is set for 7 p.m. at Eck Stadium.

Jason Coniglio, junior sprinter, runs during the KSU Open Feb. 20. Coniglio was part of a men’s relay team that finished fourth at last week’s Kansas Relays.

After opening the 83rd annual Kansas Relays on a strong note last Thursday, the K-State track and field team kept the ball rolling over the weekend, posting numerous strong finishes on Friday and Saturday at KU’s Memorial Stadium in Lawrence. The Wildcats were not able to bring home any event titles following Thursday’s action, but several K-State athletes posted top-five finishes at the in-state tournament hosted by the Jayhawks. Sophomore Cassie Styers got things started for the Wildcats, finishing in a tie for fourth in the women’s high jump. Her leap of 1.65 meters matched KU’s Elizabeth Beisner. Styers posted K-State’s only top-five finish in a jumping event, but a large contingency of her fellow athletes were strong in other fields. A pair of athletes made their presence felt in throwing events as junior Ali Pistora and senior Eric Thomas placed fourth in the javelin and discus, respectively. Pistora finished with a toss of 48.46 meters while Thomas posted a throw of 178-02. After transferring to K-State from Cloud County Community College a year ago, junior Jeffrey Julmis has put together a solid season in a Wildcat uniform. Julmis kept that trend alive over the weekend, finishing second in the men’s 110-meter hurdles with a personal-best time of

13.81 seconds. Teammate and true freshman Balazs Baji finished two spots behind Julmis with a time of 14.15 seconds, just .04 seconds shy of his personal record. Two groups of Wildcats saw some success in relay races as K-State earned top-five finishes in both men’s and women’s competition. The tandem of Emily Dittemore, Stephanie Hejde, Laura Lee Baird and Emilee Morris carded a secondplace finish in the women’s 4,400-yard distance medley. Meanwhile, in men’s action, the group of Baji, Jason Coniglio, Mantas Silkauskas and Martynas Jurgilas grabbed a fourth-place finish in the men’s 4x100, crossing the finish line in 4:40.83. Jurgilas, a sophomore, also enjoyed some individual success as he finished third in the 100-meter with a time of 10.53 seconds. Senior distance runner Beverly Ramos was also in action over the weekend at the Mt. SAC Relays at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, Calif. Ramos, a two-time All-American, finished 11th in the women’s 5,000-meter, but was the top collegiate finisher in the event. Her time of 15:51.82 ranks second in school history. The Wildcats will return to action on Thursday when they head north for the prestigious Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa. Their next home action comes on May 1 when they host the Ward Haylett Invitational, which marks the final home competition of the season.

To rent, to own, what are the advantages? 5

Aaron Weiser Rent occupies a significant portion of college debt. Whether out of students’ own pockets or the deeper ones of parents, the amount of total college expenses consumed by room and board is substantial — to the point that it might be a better option for some to avoid renting and go straight to buying. According to the Department of Housing and Dining Services, the average rate for dorms and a 20-meal plan for the past four years was $6,299 per year. This is $661 less than the national four-year public average, $6,960, according to a report from CollegeBoard.com. In a survey of 11 randomly selected off-campus students, the average rent was $315 per person with approximately $75 to $100 per month, per person for utilities. These utilities included electric, gas, water and sewage, trash removal and cable/Internet. two students and the pricGrocery bills can vary es they pay is the duration widely from person to per- of time they stay in resison depending on habits dence.

less than living expenses. Besides investing in an education, putting money in the housing market could also be good. Manhattan is not a cheap place to live. With the average home price listing for $203,266 according to Trulia.com, thinking about purchasing can be a daunting task. However, by using a qualified real estate agent and doing research, prices can be less daunting. First-time home buyers have a plethora of opportunities awaiting them in the housing market. From discounted loans to tax credits, the government and financial institutions alike work to ease the frustration and difficulty of acquiring a first home. According to GinnieMae.gov, by calculating current rental prices and future plans, people can actually calculate what

they should logically be doing. Purchasing is also an option for students. The average mortgage rate, or property loan rate, for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is 5.21 percent, according to Freddie Mac. With first-time home buyers able to lock in a low down payment generally between 5 percent and 10 percent and including appreciation, property taxes and the number of years they plan to stay in the home, calculating tools allow people to estimate the true difference between renting and buying. Looking at Trulia, it appears that with the current market in Manhattan for one- to two-bedroom houses, a suitable listing price seems to fall around $85,000. Using the Ginnie Mae calculator for buying versus renting and plugging in our averages, we get a staggering answer.

The average cost, given property appreciation of 2 percent for renting 10 years would be $351 per month for that same renter. But, given a chance to purchase an $85,000 property, assuming property tax, a 5-percent down payment for first-time home buyers, the average 5.21-percent interest rate and the same 10-year period gives some fairly interesting estimates. The average monthly cost for this mortgage owner would be $222 as opposed to $351, giving a 10-year savings to the buyer of $15,378. Also, the appreciated value of the purchased home is $104,833, according to Ginnie Mae. Granted, there is still a large mortgage on your hands and with a small down payment, you will probably have to carry an additional monthly premium of around $60 per month, according to most mortgage lenders on MortgageQnA.com. You will, however, own your home, and have built almost $20,000 by investing for 10 years. This $20,000 could represent the amount you had to borrow for school and as such could be a great way to cover costs down the road. While buying a home is not for the average college student, with the right set of circumstances, it could prove to be a very smart move. A number of students planning to stay at the university or attend graduate school would be in such a long-term position that financing for the future move would be a very good investment. There are also those with parents who could help them secure such a property and use some of the money to help finance the college they are paying for. Whether or not buying seems like an option for you, the advice, calculators and tools are available all over the Web and in realty offices alike. Checking into your options before spending a small fortune to stay at college is always a good idea.

Continued from Page 1 This was Ishida’s second time performing at K-State’s Japanese festival. Ishida’s show combined magic with Japanese influence and music, creating an experience for the audience. Ishida said he loves performing magic because it provides him with the opportunity to meet people he might not have normally met. He said he also likes using it as an opportunity to introduce Japanese culture to his audience and to make new friends. “It’s a communication tool,” Ishida said. “For me, magic is another language I speak. This is what I want to do for the rest of my life.” The Central Kansas Japanese Festival was the last Japanese event for the semester, but the Japanese Student Association is preparing for its annual food sale this fall.

as a benefactor for all three years. Sponsors and band members have chosen First Book as a benefactor for all three years. Matt Maggiacomo, member of the Whomping Willows band, said he has been supporting First Book for years. “There was a time when culture pushed kids away from books and away from reading,” he said. “I think the ‘Harry Potter’ series has really pulled the generation of young people back into reading, and First Book is a great organization [for] promoting literacy and helping children.” The money will go to the nearest local advisory board, which is in Kansas City, Kan., said Westman, who also serves as the faculty adviser for Children’s and Adolescent Literature Community and as co-organizer of the concert. A teacher from Omaha, Dante Salvatierra, joined in the festivities and said the event was excellent. “This is my third year coming, and it is almost like a tradition for me; I hope there is another one next year,” he said. “I never realized there were so many more bands than Harry and the Potters, and the idea that this concert donates money to First Books is great. “I am a teacher; it is my job to promote literacy, and this is just another way
