SOMETIMES ALL YOU NEEDED WAS A DISTRACTION

Baseball is a Jacy is a sophomore studying great chance to dig up journalism. You may contact her at jacy_2012@hotmail.com. your Husker tailgating gear and go cheer on some talented students.

The men also sported a camouflage uniform for one of their games which means sporting America gear on top of your Husker pride to all of their games is acceptable. A day at the ballfields is never a day wasted. Also a plus for ladies is of course the men’s baseball pants. Swoon.

JACY LEWIS

This past summer I purchased a hammock and it was one of the best decisions of my life. Owning a hammock might make me a hippie, but I don’t care because they hours of relaxation it brings is me worth it. UNL’s campus is practically set up for hammocks. There are so many trees that can be utilized for the perfect hammock

hanging position. If hammocks are your thing, then a simple blanket on the green can help you unwind. An added perk to both of these options is the ability to still do homework or a little reading while catching some healthy rays of sunshine. Don’t forget the sunscreen though if you have fair skin.

Sunday nights are notorious for line and swing dancing at Pla Mor. It can be easy to forget about this option because weekends fill up quickly leaving homework for Sundays and driving all the way to West O can hurt the gas tank when you haven’t filled up for awhile. This can be one of the most rewarding things to do on a Sunday night though. Line dancing is like a mini workout but it’s fun. I would suggest wearing shorts and a tank top especially if there are a lot of people because you will get sweaty. No cowboy or cowgirl boots are required, take those tennis shoes and dance them off. There is even the possibility of finding a cowboy or cowgirl Casanova to sweep (swing) you off your feet. Time is precious, but time having fun isn’t wasted. Set an amount of time to have fun then after that time is up go back to work. This time of the semester is hectic, but it’s not healthy to stress out over a paper that is only 10% of your grade or getting a B+ instead of an A- on an exam. Don’t sweat the little things and let some distractions keep you occupied and sane.

Throughout his presentation Sam used recent examples of discrimination from around the country. But he reminded Monday’s audience of Martin Luther King Junior’s impactful words, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Greeks at Nebraska don’t want to end up on some other presenter’s slideshow in the future. I think we’d much rather set an impactful example of leadership to the rest of the country.

1. Legacies are important

of all people.

I’m not talking about the sister/brother whose parent or sibling was a member of your organization I’m talking about the legacy left behind when you leave this place. Sam said they were three types of legacies, positive, negative, and forgotten. I think we can all agree on what kind of legacy we want. What are you willing to do to achieve a positive legacy for your chapter? Are you willing to stand up for what’s right even if it means disagreeing with a brother or sister? According to Sam, “You don’t get to pick your legacy, just your actions.” Just a little food for thought there. 2. Flipping coins can be a really fun pastime. 3. “Don’t just not be an idiot.” Just because you never have (or never have been caught) saying or doing something insensitive or derogatory doesn’t mean your totally ok. As Greeks we should strive to make change on campus and set an example of how to live while upholding our values. Not doing stupid stuff is not enough to call your self a leader. Greeks should be proactive in making change across our campus. 4. Teaching others is not as hard as it seems. I think another important thing I’ll take away is how to approach someone when they do say something offensive. Sam showed a video that addressed this topic. The important thing is to not tell the person that they are a racist or a bigot. This will completely derail the argument you are trying to make and just end up making the situation worse. You need to address what they said and why it was wrong so they can better understand why it’s not ok to say things like that. 5. Just because it’s not happening here doesn’t mean you should stay quiet

to stay motivated until the the end of the semester.

2) Make a list of what needs to be done. I find that I am able to accomplish a lot more if I know what is on my plate. If I’m having a really difficult time deciding where to start, I rate the level of importance of each assignment. For example, if something is due the next morning, that will be number one and so on. 3) Set a time to start studying. I guarantee you will get more done if you have a goal in mind. If you still can’t find the motivation to start on your work, ask a friend to study with you so that you’re both held accountable. Just don’t end up talking instead of studying…

HAIRSTYLES FOR SPRING 2014 Springtime is the perfect time of the year to renew your closet and style. After Alpha Omicron Pi winter, I always get antsy to change up my look to a Abbey is a sophomore studying more fresh and girly style fashion communications. to go with the lightness and Yo u m a y c o n t a c t h e r a t clean feeling that spring awalker012@yahoo.com. brings. You can change your clothes everyday but if you are looking for a more permanent look to revamp your style and try out a new trend, cut your hair. For most girls, cutting your hair is a life decision but honestly, hair grows so just do it. Last August, I cut 13 inches off my hair and I have never been happier. There are the days which I wish I could just braid my long hair again but cutting your hair to a new style could really give you more confidence even make you happier. 2014 is packed full of new hair trends that you could try out even before cutting your hair but ladies, cutting your hair isn’t the end of the world and you might even be happier and make your hair healthier if you just chop.

1. Windswept Updos- Many of the runway designers chose to go with the disheveled look this year and had a lot of the loose ends coming out of buns and braids to give that effortless and free-spirited feel to each outfit. This do is rather easy to attain when you just need a quick look for class or even a party. Especially with the wind

around campus, you could just put it in a bun and let Mother Nature take your hair to the next step. 2. Old World and Complex Braids- Last season, the simple and clean-cut braid was everywhere but it’s time to step up your game with a different type this year. The curly, romantic braids that look like they just came from ancient Greece or Renaissance and girls are rocking these fun braids everywhere. Pinterest is a good place to start to find out how to do one of these braids and they would be perfect for formal! One of my favorite braids this season is the Frida Kahlo- inspired crown. 3. Accessories- This might be one of my favorite trends this year, accessories in your hair. It may seem like we’ve all been there, done that with headbands and clips but having more fun with them and taking them to a new level is the thing to do everywhere. From spring break to festivals, flower crowns have been the new rage but even the small simple flower headband can be done for class or a party. Finally, the urban head wrap is one to try as well if you are feeling quite daring for a day. Use any printed scarf and simply wrap it around or cross it over in the front to give it a more boho-feeling look. 4. New Cuts- If you are looking for a daring change in your life, go short and cut it all off. Yes, it does change what you can and cannot do but it also opens the door for new hairstyles that you weren’t able to do before with longer hair. The textured long bob has been a style that has been a hit with many celebs. The loose curls with the blunt cut looks chic while giving short hair a more modern feel. But if you really just want to take a new road, try the pixie. It is a hard cut to pull off but when you do, you can rock it all the time. Mixing it up with a cute headband or hat will help on the off days and for formal, the sleek pixie works as an edgy, elegant touch to your outfit.

2. The Phi Beta Kappa Society is the oldest Greek letter organization. of such a strong, caring, and loyal network. PBK was founded on December 5, 1776 at the College of William and Mary, making it a whopping 237 years old. Although PBK is an Honor Society and not a fraternity or sorority, they were the first organization to start the tradition of using Greek letters as a name, which is kind of big deal. Their motto was, “Love of learning is the guide of life,” and even had top secret initiation rituals and a special handshake. And if you’re wondering why 1776 sounds so familiar, that’s the year America declared its independence. So basically, Phi Beta Kappa is as old as the existence of the United States of America. Nbd. And while we’re talking about history and old things: 3. Since 1825, all but three U.S. presidents were members of a fraternity. But really, how cool would it be to be able to say that you’re bros with Ronald Raegan, John F. Kennedy, or Franklin D. Roosevelt? Ronald Raegan was a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon, John F. Kennedy was an alum initiate of Phi Kappa Theta, and Franklin D. Roosevelt was a member of Alpha Delta Phi. On top of that, 85% of the Fortune 500 executives belong to a fraternity. I would definitely say that these frat boys have got it goin’ on. 4. The youngest woman to ever be on the cover of Forbes’ Billionaires was in a sorority. Speaking for girls everywhere, I send much thanks to Sara Blakely, the wonderful founder of Spanx. Where would we be without her?

He wants it to happen. He hopes humans go the way of the with ketchup and mustard at MLB games? I don’t know what you all dinosaur because, you know, Mother Nature deserves better. expected of famed atheist Darren Aronofsky’s new movie, “Noah,” the Now, the movie itself isn’t awful.

Russell Crowe it probably wasn’t this. as a deranged Noah crusading for the well-being of our Gaia. Emma Seriously. If you are, in any way, expecting some sort of rehashing or 2014 visual-effects orgy-version of the story of Noah as it sits in Genesis, run fast as Daniel from the theater. This one’s not for you, folks. Many a mother has told me they immensely disliked this new “Noah,” and I don’t blame them. They expected a half-grand spectacle, half-reaffirmation of their faith. The film basically spits on that idea. Intentionally? Perhaps. Aronofsky is a sly dog, after all. But really, he simply had other issues than religion on his mind when he created

Watson as the moral rock of the film - as well as the female escaping calamity with wounds that embitter and strengthen her forever. Very relatable and powerful stuff! “Pagan,” actually, if the brilliant Creationist Dr. Ken Ham is to be trusted (see: his review of “Noah”). So I reiterate: it’s not the Christian movie you’re looking for. But it is still a pretty damn good one, apparently, if your movie experience can be dictated by other forces than religion. Whether this stuff matters or not, I suppose, will be up to you.
