ISU experiences increase in state’s applicants Tyler Davis News Editor

Indiana State University has seen an uptick in freshman enrollment from Illinois this year, particularly from Chicago and surrounding areas.

“With the new term underway, we have been feverishly collecting and counting over our enrollments here at ISU,” Richard Toomey, associate vice president of enrollment management said.

After the first week of classes on campus, enrollment statistics are gathered and evaluated as students are expected to be on campus and attending classes at this time.

Senior Vice President of Enrollment Management, John Beacon is tasked with identifying the exact reasons for changes in enrollments numbers, and also analyzes the approach ISU takes for recruitment in certain regions.

“In fall 2016, 242 freshmen were from Illinois, which was an increase of 25 percent over the previous year. Illinois undergraduates for fall 2015 totaled 1069, while fall 2016 totaled 1132 (an increase since last year of 63 students or 5.9 percent),” Beacon said. “After an initial surge in 2010, we saw a dip in new Illinois students between 2013 and 2015.”

With Illinois facing many challenges associated with state funding for education,

residents have decided to look elsewhere for the college experience.

Indiana State has sought to appeal to this large group of high school graduates by making in-roads in many Illinois communities.

“We are visiting key feeder high schools in Illinois during the fall and spring 201617, while also attending college fairs,” Beacon said. “This campaign, in conjunction with a large exodus of Illinois students seeking to enroll outside the state because of state appropriations issues to higher education the past few years, has once again seen renewed interest from Illinois students seeking to enroll at ISU.” Scholarships previously made available

by ISU allowed students to consider relocating without the increased financial burden.

The difference in out-of-state and in-state tuition is a factor in deciding the appropriate institution for most college students.

When comparing the available options at-hand, many Illinois graduates decide to cross the border into Indiana in order to gain an affordable college education.

“We began recruiting in the Chicago metropolitan area eight years ago when we first offered merit scholarships to high school seniors that reduced a portion of their nonresident tuition, in recognition of

Redshirt sophomore Isaac Harker got the nod at starting quarterback and helped lead the Sycamores to a 41-25 win over Butler.

Sycamores batter Bulldogs Alex Modesitt Reporter

The question heading into Indiana State’s 41-25 win over Butler on Saturday revolved around the choice of starting quarterback.

It wasn’t until redshirt sophomore Isaac Harker jogged onto the field with the starting offense that the spattering of fans at Memorial Stadium were introduced to the starting quarterback of the 2016 iteration of ISU football. Harker said that he felt like it was his job to lose all along and wanted to assert himself as the leader of the offense.

“I think any quarterback would be lying to you if they told you they didn’t think they were the best quarterback on the team,” Harker said. “It’s a mindset

that’s good to have because confidence is pretty key in the game of football I’d say. I just wanted to be a leader on the team and if that meant being the starting quarterback or a different role I was willing to accept that.”

The first score of the game didn’t come from Harker or the offense, however. It came on a second-and-goal play from the half-yard line that saw Butler quarterback Malcolm Weaver attempt a quarterback sneak and dive at the goal line.

It appeared that Weaver crossed the plane with the ball when it squirted loose and wound up in the hands of senior safety Tsali Lough.

Lough then took the ball and darted 100 yards up the sideline, narrowly escaping the outstretched arms of a pur-

suing defender, and scored the contentious touchdown.

When asked, Lough said he didn’t know whether Weaver had control when he crossed the goal line and only concerned himself with returning the ball once he had it.

“I was in the middle and just saw the ball pop up so I grabbed it,” Lough said. “When I grabbed it Tyshon Waller picked me up and turned me around set me on the ground, and I think my feet were already going, and I just took off. I saw two guys standing there that didn’t know what to do and I just ran as hard as I could. I wish I would have run faster.”

On the ensuing possession, Lough

It has officially been three weeks since school has started. At this point, schedules are complete, students know where their classes are and they know when to have the much-needed nap breaks.

One thing they might be missing out on are the unique organizations and clubs that are offered at Indiana State University. ISU offers over 250 student organizations that are classified under various categories such as academic, community, international, sports and hobby based.

The Organization Fair — held on Thursday, Sept. 1 on the Quad — was a great way for students to discover clubs and organizations on campus. A few of them include Best Buddies, ISU Role Players, V.I.S.I.O.N. and PRSSA. Best Buddies is one of the largest nonprofit organizations and are teamed up with Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (IDD) to form one-on-one friendships between students. Their first call-out meeting was held on Tuesday, Sept. 6 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in Dreiser Hall. Members of Best Buddies attend sporting events and even host themed parties. Their goal is to do everything they can to include themselves into their buddies’ lives. Paige Beamon, president of Best Buddies said, “Anybody can join, no matter what — just get signed up,” she said.

Another unique organization is ISU Role Players Guild. This organization has been on campus for six years and is looking forward to many more years to follow.

Their main events and activities include playing tabletop, board, and card games.

They also interact with other organizations such as the anime club of ISU and enjoyed a friendly match of Instagram versus Snapchat and “swallowed the anime club,” according to Cassie Moye, the vice president of Role Players Guild.

This organization has also incorporated activities such as acting out their favorite characters to play from the board games. All students are welcome and do not need any experience with games. RPGuild will teach you how to be great and will show all of the techniques involved in the board game world. Meetings will be held every Friday from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. on the fourth floor of the HMSU.

Sororities and Fraternities invite freshmen to rush Miguel Lewis Reporter

With fall approaching, Greek life recruitment is around the corner. Greek organizations on campus are beginning to ramp up recruitment activities in order to attract potential members. From the outside looking in, some people might think that being associated with fraternities or sororities is all about the parties, girls, alcohol, or anything portrayed on television relative to Greek life. However, for those on the inside, going Greek is about so much more.

ISU Senior Meghan Mattingly spoke on her experiences within Greek life, and detailed what the term “rushing” actually entails.

“There is a lot that goes into sorority recruitment,” Mattingly said. “A lot of nerves, time and effort, but the end outcome is worth it. It’s exciting to see the outcome, and who will be running home when it’s all said and done.”

The recruitment process for sororities starts on Sept. 7 and will last until Sept.

11, and for most sororities, practice for the big week started as early as move-in day.

This gives “rushers,” in both fraternities and sororities alike, the opportunity to get acquainted with incoming freshmen and to promote their organization in a healthy manner.

On top of assisting with the move-in of incoming students, Greek life members devote a portion of their own time to phil-

ISU to host expert panel to discuss implications of historic Brexit vote On June 23, British voters chose to leave the European Union. The campaign leading up to the referendum was divisive and turnout was high.

How this momentous exit from the EU will unfold is as yet unclear, and the consequences are even more uncertain.

It’s not too early to try to understand why so many voted to leave the EU and to ponder how the Brexit vote reflects splits within the United Kingdom across regions and generations and between urban and rural voters. A public panel discussion is set for 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 15 in the events area of the Cunningham Memorial Library on the campus of Indiana State University.

Parking for the event is available after 5 p.m. on campus.

There have been “Euroskeptics” in British politics for decades. Why has their influence become dominant now? Indiana State will convene a panel of experts on European studies who will examine this issue along with several other matters connected to Brexit.

Possible questions for the event are listed as follows: Will the United Kingdom itself survive the Brexit? What does Brexit imply for relations between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland? How will this new Schengen border be managed? Can the United Kingdom negotiate a “soft” exit? Is the Norwegian model a viable alternative for the United Kingdom?

What will be the economic

Former Missouri professor hired at Gonzaga Brendan Kiley Seattle Times

(TNS) Last fall, a University of Missouri faculty member was captured on video asking for “some muscle” to chase a photojournalist away from a campus protest. She was suspended, and then fired in February.

This summer, Gonzaga University in Spokane, Wash., hired that professor, Melissa Click, for a one-year, non-tenure-track position in its Communications Studies Department.

A video shows photojournalist Tim Tai, on a freelance assignment for ESPN, trying to take photos and being confronted by demonstrators who tell him to go away. (Prominent college athletes were involved in the protest.)

“The First Amendment protects your right to be here and mine,” Tai said. The protesters shouted back: “Hey-hey, ho-ho, reporters have got to go!” Another told Tai, “You got to go, bro.”

Shortly afterward, Click appeared to push another reporter, Mark Schierbecker (he told The New York Times that she grabbed at his camera), and asked for help to eject him from the campus protest, which was on public property.

Gonzaga spokesman Dave Sonntag said Saturday that the university was “not in a position to talk about her past experiences,” but “we’re very confident she’s learned from her experience.”

Click, he said, has no past history with Gonzaga. “We see that incident as something in her past,” Sonntag said. “There could be a lot of opinions about that, a lot of possible debate about that.”

In an interview with The Chronicle of Higher Education, Click said her actions had been misconstrued and that she was fired because “I’m a white lady.

I’m an easy target.”

A statement Saturday from Gonzaga’s dean of arts and sciences said that the school believes Click “will uphold the rigorous standards of academic excellence demanded of Gonzaga faculty and students.” Click was not available for comment, Sonntag said.

ITT Tech closing nationwide Students may get federal loans forgiven Jim Puzzanghera Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON - The company that operates ITT Technical Institutes said Tuesday it was permanently closing all its campuses nationwide, blaming the recent move by the U.S. Education Department to ban the for-profit college operator from enrolling new students who use federal financial aid.

The shutdown will affect about 35,000 students who were preparing for the start of classes this month and cost more than 8,000 employees their jobs. But those students and those who left the school within the past six months would be eligible to have loans for their ITT education forgiven if they want to start over at another school, federal officials said.

The Education Department has begun reaching out to students as well as community colleges near ITT campuses, which are being encouraged to be flexible in allowing ITT students to transfer their credits.

ITT Educational Services Inc. said it would focus on

helping its students obtain their records and pursue their educations elsewhere.

“We reached this decision only after having exhausted the exploration of alternatives, including transfer of the schools to a nonprofit or public institution,” ITT said in a statement.

Like many other for-profit college operators, ITT has faced federal and state investigations of its recruiting and accounting practices. The day after the U.S. Education Department’s August decision, California imposed further restrictions on the company.

Citing concerns about ITT’s financial viability, the state Department of Consumer Affairs’ Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education issued an emergency decision banning ITT from accepting new students at its 15 California locations.

The state also planned to seek to revoke ITT’s approval to operate in California. ITT blamed its closure on what it called unwarranted federal action. “The damage done to our students and employees, as well as to our shareholders and the American taxpayers,

is irrevocable,” ITT said. “We believe the government’s action was inappropriate and unconstitutional, however, with the ITT Technical Institutes ceasing operations, it will now likely rest on other parties to understand these reprehensible actions and to take action to attempt to prevent this from happening again,” the company said.

U.S. Education Secretary John B. King Jr. said Tuesday that his agency did not take its action lightly and that federal officials were committed to helping ITT’s students. “The school’s decisions have put its students and millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded federal student aid at risk,” King said in a blog post. “We made a difficult choice to pursue additional oversight in order to protect you, other students and taxpayers from potentially worse educational and financial damage in the future if ITT was allowed to continue operating without increased oversight and assurances to better serve students.”

King said current or recently enrolled students could be eli-

gible to have their student loan debt forgiven and might be able to transfer ITT credits to another school. The Education Department on Tuesday sent an email to ITT’s 35,000 enrolled students to alert them of the closure and options available to them, said Ted Mitchell, the undersecretary of education. “We think that it is important for students to continue what they started,” Mitchell told reporters on a conference call.

“There’s nothing more important than a college degree in today’s economy.” Students who were enrolled or had withdrawn from ITT within the past 120 days have two options, Mitchell said. They could apply to have their federal student loans forgiven. Information is available at the department’s ITT website of by calling the loan servicer. Students also could try to transfer their ITT credits to another school. But if those credits are transferred to the same program of studies at another school, the loans for the ITT credits would not be eligible to be forgiven, Mitchell said.

In years past (2013-2015), ISU has seen a reduction in student applications originating from Illinois.

While the precise cause of this trend is not always readily identifiable, ISU has surmised that the scholarship specifications could be behind the root of the problem, and has orchestrated efforts to ensure that the trend does not continue.

“It appears this was due primarily to affordability for those who were unable to meet renewal requirements for their merit scholarships,” Beacon said. “Since then, we have amplified a marketing campaign targeting both the Chicago metropolitan area as well as central Illinois.”

These events not only give back to the community, but shine a positive light on Greek life so that once recruitment season arrives, each organization stands a better chance.

“It does get a little competitive each year,” Mattingly said. “Recruitment lasts from Wednesday to Sunday and within that window, each attending young lady will have the opportunity to learn more about the sorority of her choice, and if we’re lucky enough she will choose Alpha Sigma Alpha as her new home.”

Occasionally there are times where multiple sororities yearn to share a bid with the same person, which is why it is up to the “rushee” to make the best decision for herself, and likewise for fraternities.

For students like senior communication major Matt Armstrong, recruitment is all about bonding.

“Anyone who’s interested in joining fraternity or sorority life is welcomed and encouraged. We encourage others to join because among other things, diversity is a big part of Greek Life, but at the end of the day, it’s all about finding the perfect fit for you, something that lines up to your reality and morals. Being a part of an outstanding organization, getting to see and know new faces, hear new stories, and meet new acquaintances are some of the things that have meant the most to me during my time in Pi Kappa Alpha,” Armstrong said.

Each member of the panel will speak for about 20 minutes on the origins and repercussions of Brexit from the perspective of their individual expertise. A question-and-answer session will follow.

The event is co-sponsored by the international studies program in the department of multidisciplinary studies, the Center for Global Engagement, the College of Arts and Sciences, the department of history and Cunningham Memorial Library.

It is important to note that out-of-state students have access to the same opportunities as those who identify as in-state students.

The ISU community has focused on implementing an inclusive atmosphere for all who attend the school.

“Illinois students may take advantage of the same services available to all ISU students that include assigned academic advisors in the University College their first year, tutors in various academic disciplines, a writing center, and counselors available to help with personal issues if and when they arise,” Beacon said.

It appears that recruitment efforts have already made a noticeable impact on enrollment statistics. “As the press release indicates, we have had another successful year with recruitment,” Toomey said.

Leadership and Global engagement made possible with ISLC Grace Harrah Features Editor

International Student Leadership Council had its first meeting on Thursday, Sept. 1 to discuss their future campus involvement along with meeting current members.

Although this organization is not commonly heard of, its involvement on campus with the various international organizations is something that is much needed to create a diverse campus community at ISU. International Student Leadership Council coordinates and connects various international student organizations on campus by being the umbrella for various clubs.

It welcomes leaders and members who wish to grow their leadership skills along with getting involved in various international organizations.

This council and connects international clubs at ISU such as the African Student Union, Hispanic Latino Alliance, Chinese Students and Scholars Association, Linking Language Learners, and more.

AMC Theaters to pay tribute to Gene Wilder Nardine Saad

Los Angeles Times (TNS)

This isn’t pure imagination: “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” and “Blazing Saddles” are making their way back to the big screen.

AMC theaters will show the two films to pay tribute to their late star, Gene Wilder.

The theater chain and Warner Bros. distribution will bring the iconic Wilder films to 55 of AMC’s 386 locations nationwide Saturday and Sunday to honor the “life and incredible career” of the actor and writer, AMC said in a statement on Thursday.

“Willy Wonka,” the 1971 confectionery musical in which Wilder played the whimsical candy tycoon, will play at 5 p.m. and “Blazing Saddles,” the 1974 western comedy that marked one of Wilder’s many collaborations with Mel Brooks, will play at 7:30 p.m. at participating locations.

Tickets will be sold for the price of a couple of golden ticket-laced Wonka bars — a standard $5 for each film.

Wilder, a two-time Oscar nominee, died Sunday of complications from Alzheimer’s disease at his home in Stamford, Conn. He was 83.

It helps promote these clubs along with connecting the international students to feel most at home and close to the ISU community.

It also encourages international students to get involved and host events that promote their culture on campus.

“We make sure that all international students have a place that allows them to promote their diversity and culture,” Council President Jipin Jose said.

Every year the number of international students at ISU differs, along with where they come from.

“Some students from certain countries such as Brazil, Taiwan, and Morocco do not have enough students to form a club. As a council we make sure that they are still involved and make sure they have a place in the international organizations at ISU,” Jose said.

The council also emphasizes the enhancement of the leadership qualities in each of the international organizations on campus.

Additionally, the council forms a bridge between the leaders of each club and organizations to work and come together.

The council is hosting an event that promotes an awareness for food waste. Jose explained that the topic was chosen because it is something that can be globally and locally relatable.

The slogan for the event is “I pledge to stop food waste.” The council has created a video that is showing its premier at Dede II on Sept. 8 at 4 p.m.

The event will welcome the First Lady of ISU, the Dean, ISU student expo, and the international students along with faculty and staff members of the council.

It is open to the public and the students of ISU. The council hopes to see the video across campus after its first showing at the event on Thursday. The council also hopes the students of ISU will take action to help prevent food waste.

PAW hosts first on-campus event Adrienne Morris Reporter

During the Labor Day Weekend, Programs All Weekend (PAW) hosted an event that made it possible for Indiana State University students to tie dye shirts and play life-sized yard games.

The event was a perfect opportunity to get students involved during the long weekend.

It was the first event that was hosted by PAW this year and welcomed all students for a fun activity.

The event had multiple materials for tie-dyeing and games, tables, and people helping out with the task.

There were people distributing shirts to those who wanted them, while others were giving directions and tips to tie-dye their shirts.

The PAW event took place at Wolf Field on Saturday, Sept. 3.

Many people were in attendance for the event and for some it was their first PAW event.

“Someone told me about this event, and I was very interested

in it; it’s really a fun activity that I can enjoy, especially this long weekend,” freshman Daizjha Verrett said.

PAW events give students the option to have fun with friends and also a perfect opportunity to meet new people.

“It gives the students something to do and something to look forward to,” Verrett said.

The event, Tie Dye and Life Sized Yard Games, was filled with Indiana State University students who were eager to tiedye and play games.

“I came to this event because of tie dye. Tie-dyeing is fun,” sophomore Michaela Short said.

PAW allows for people to get involved on campus. It also gives people the ability to branch out into different activities.

Programs All Weekend not only gives opportunities to students who are attending the event, but also to people who work with and for PAW. “My freshman year I wasn’t really involved on campus. My sophomore year, I decided to dive headfirst into it and to get super involved. My entire out-

look and my entire thought process of campus completely changed when I started working with Programs All Weekend,” Campus Life Programming Assistant Carli Mauck said.

Events such as these are used to engage individuals who are seeking activities to do during the weekend.

It not only gives people the opportunity to create new experiences with different people, but it also gives people the chance to be a part of Indiana State University’s campus and learn more about what it has to offer.

Programs All Weekend has scheduled another event for the upcoming week, which will be an ice cream social. This event will allow students to take a break from studying and converse with other people.

For some, the long Labor Day weekend was not as long as they may have thought due to the events around campus, such as the tie-dyeing and life sized yard games sponsored by Programs All Weekend.

How to achieve your goals before the year ends Susie Moore

Greatist.com (TNS)

If 2016 hasn’t shaken out exactly as you’ve hoped, start getting back on track by asking yourself the unexpected lessons you’ve learned, and whether your desires have shifted.

The leaves may not yet have fallen, but the transition from summer to fall is imminent.

As vacation season comes to a close, it’s a natural time to evaluate the year _ after all, there’s only one third of it left. How are you feeling about 2016 so far?

Many people answer this question in a dissatisfied way.

They wanted to be earning more or weighing less by now. They wanted to be in a new relationship they adore or out of an old job they hate.

September is a great time to kick-start change and begin again. The good news: September is a great time to kick-start change and begin again. For me, it marks the start of my “back-

to-school” mode, when my focus sharpens and my motivation peaks.

You don’t need a new calendar year or a list of resolutions to get your sh*t together. The best way to kick off any positive movement? First, stop being so hard on yourself. Acknowledge the good things you’ve already accomplished this year. And they exist, even if it doesn’t seem like it — I promise!

Step one: reflect.

If 2016 hasn’t shaken out exactly as you’ve hoped, start getting back on track by asking yourself these two questions.

1. What unexpected lessons did I learn this year? Did you discover a new favorite author or workout class? Did you learn to stop trusting a friend who doesn’t deserve your con-

fidence? Did you stand up for yourself at work? Did you say yes to a spontaneous date, trip or seminar? You don’t need to start a new job, run a marathon or have a thriving side gig to have made progress. Heck _ even turning something down this year (with relief) that you would have said yes to one year ago (just to please others) is a major sign of growth!

2. Have my desires shifted?

Think about that for a second.

Do you still want the same things you did in January? Maybe your true desires have changed, but you still hold yourself to an old blueprint that leaves you feeling heavy and uncertain. Perhaps you wanted a promotion but really want a career change.

GOALS CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

indianastatesman.com GOALS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 Maybe you wanted to move to a new city, but you’ve met someone romantically who lives in your current town. A friend of mine who is based in London came to New York in February for a business trip.

Over margaritas she shared with me that she wanted to move here, and we were excitedly planning it. Six months later, she’s engaged (and pregnant!) after meeting a great guy at home and is now happily staying in the U.K. Life is dynamic and ever-changing so it’s natural (and good!) for your desires to shift too. You’re also allowed to change your mind. In fact, the fast-moving evolution of life can be really encouraging!

Step two: set goals.

In the spirit of moving toward what you want (and it’s OK if it’s the same things you wanted in January), it’s time to take action.

1. Write down three specific things you really, really want. Imagine on New Year’s Eve a friend asks how 2016 was for you, and you answer, “Incredible!” (and mean it). What are three things that would need to change between now and then?

Be as specific as you can. No one knows what you truly want but you. Will you have taken an overseas adventure to Thailand, earned extra income on the side as a yoga instructor, received a 20 percent raise or gotten a dog? Write them down.

2. Set goals (and a timeline) for each desire. No matter what anyone says, four months is a very long time! You can do so much between now and Dec. 31.

Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2016 • Page 5 Using the above examples, you could set out and accomplish the following goals. Travel to Thailand: Research flights and hotels online, evaluate funds, book time off work and then buy the damn ticket.

Get a raise: Submit a brilliant project at work or go the extra mile in a way your manager will appreciate.

When timing feels right, ask your boss for a 10-minute meeting where you share your salary increase request.

Earn money by teaching yoga: Create a list of 100 friends you can email about your new side gig.

Self-driving cars may help reduce accidents

Zach Davis Columnist

Driving is a big stressor for a lot of people. Being in the driver’s seat is stressful and uncomfortable. You have to be aware of your surroundings and reactions, and often there is that driver in the next lane who just won’t let you pass, but won’t go the speed limit, so you just ride next to them for a minute until they finally let you by. During that time, there is a chance one of you could make a mistake and cause a car accident.

Car accidents are an expensive mess. There is a ton of paperwork that you have to turn in, hoping they don’t see the tears as you sign away every last penny in your name just to get to school or work. But imagine if there were a way to remove the chance one of you two will make a mistake. Of course, the best way to prevent a car accident is just not to drive. Interestingly enough, that idea is not too far away.

Tesla, Google and several other companies have been working on automatic driving technology that would eliminate the need for human drivers. These self-driving vehicles will be capable of navigating the road without a driver by using a system of sensors, GPS tracking and an internal navigation system.

Self-driving cars are able to sense elements of their environment and adjust their path accordingly.

This kind of technology has the potential to save lives. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, over 90 percent of accidents are due to human error in one way or another. Having self-driving vehicles would eliminate the need for human drivers, therefore eliminating human error. Think about it: there

would be fewer drivers texting and speeding. Drunken individuals might be able to get home — with their car.

All of this means fewer accidents and fewer lives lost.

Of course, computers make mistakes too. After all, they are only as good as humans can make them.

Some curves might be miscalculated or something might malfunction. But humans make the same mistakes, realistically speaking.

Right now the numbers are in favor of the self-driving vehicles, though. Tesla reports only a small number of accidents, only one fatal, spanned out over 130 million miles. The results right now show that self-driving vehicles are in accidents less often than vehicles driven by humans.

Safety on the road matters to many, but it matters most to the ones who have to pay for the accident: you and your insurance company. Most insurance companies offer discounts or have cheaper rates for individuals with better driving records, since they are less likely to get into an accident. If the self-driving vehicle is really safer, then it would make sense for insurance rates to go down. And everybody likes cheaper prices.

The best part: these cars are already being tested.

Several states have already taken actions to help further the research of self-driving vehicles. Michigan, for example, is discussing the legalization of self-driving vehicles on public roads, with or without a driver.

Yes, there is reason for cars without a driver. Taxi and rental services such as Uber can offer driverless transportation, making these services safer for consumers. In fact, Uber is beginning to use self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh.

Self-driving vehicles are safer on the road and in the cabin. Safer cars mean saved lives and wallets. And while errors may still occur, human errors still happen more often and cause more accidents. The advent of self-driving vehicles might be able to reduce the amount of accidents, saving lives.

Release of Brock Turner indicates a broken system

Shawn Gibford Columnist

Rape is the most underreported crime in America. Some estimate the number of unreported sexual assaults to be as high as 63 percent. When college campuses are being considered, the numbers are even more astonishing. Roughly 95 percent of attempted and completed rapes go unreported, and the number is even higher for other forms of assault.

There is not a universal definition for rape, and there lies the heart of the problem. If there is no consistency in the law, how are victims ever going to receive the justice they deserve?

With the recent release from jail of ex-Stanford student Brock Turner, who raped an unconscious woman behind a dumpster, still fresh in the minds of many, the problem of rape in this country might finally be getting the attention it needs. The outrage at the leniency shown to Brock due to his swimming ability is under-

standable.

Protestors have been standing outside the Turner residence with signs and bull horns, some even showing up armed with automatic weapons since his release from jail this past week. Brock served only three of his 6-month sentence for good behavior. This is not uncommon; however, most of the frustration is centered on the fact that the judge only handed out a 6-month sentence for being convicted of three counts of sexual assault. The charge originally carried a sentence of more than a decade.

If the laws are inconsistent and punishments unfair and often not served in full, how is it possible to say the system is working?

Universities also have responsibility and need to change the way they handle reports of sexual assault and rape.

When people feel the need to keep an incidents of rape to themselves out of fear of not being believed, that is a failure of the system. California lawmakers are proposing required prison time for anyone convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious person. Brock Turner is the catalyst for the rushed proposal.

In less than one-third of reported sexual assaults on campus, offenders are expelled.

Fewer than half of those were

found guilty were suspended.

At most universities, even if a student is expelled or suspended for a sexual assault, it is not marked on their transcript.

This is absolutely outrageous.

On top of that, there is the serious issue of schools underreporting sexual assaults in order to make them more appealing to incoming freshmen.

Colleges and universities are protecting offenders and doing a poor job of helping victims.

Something must be done. Even if a school turns over a sexual assault case to the police, it won’t necessarily end up with a convictions.

It is commonly agreed upon that a good place to start the end of sexual assault is consent education in all high schools in America. Unfortunately, that too still may not be early enough. The Centers for Disease Control reports that about 11 percent of girls are forcibly raped by the time they graduate high school. There has been legislation proposed to Congress; however, it has yet to come to a vote.

It is hard to say where to start the reform that is so obviously needed. The only thing that is clear is that if things continue the way they have been, justice will continue to go unserved.

Sexual assault is a very real thing on college campuses, and it is our responsibility to fix it.

Restaurant etiquette makes dining a better experience for everyone

Jim Kreinhop Columnist

Anyone who’s eaten at a restaurant will eventually pick up on particular habits among the staff and customers. I have been on both sides of the dining experience, waiting tables at two different restaurants, and eating out at many more.

The knowledge gained by being a waiter has made me more aware of the rituals and traditions that go into eating

out.

When I enter a restaurant to eat, the first thing I look for is a host or a sign telling me to stand there and wait for the host. I never assume open seating because I know, as a waiter, that the dining room is divided into multiple sections, each one tended to specifically by one server or another, and that if I seat myself in any section I want, I risk becoming a server’s second table in one round, when I ought to go to the next server listed in rotation.

If you do this, it may or may not affect the quality of service you receive that night, but it could be the one table too many that throws your server into a whirling trance of missing drinks, wrong orders and

theatrical and woeful apologies. Part of a server’s job is to regularly check up on each of their customers to see if they need something else and if their meal is satisfactory.

It’s doubly hard when they’re double-sat.

Waiters are expected to be visible to customers in case they need to ask for something, but usually a waiter will approach his tables too frequently throughout a meal. A waiter will check up on me every five minutes, interrupting my conversations, and he never has anything good for me, such as extra napkins, a paid bill or a second helping. But I can’t blame his excessiveness because it’s better than if he was never around.

I also know that his bosses

are probably keeping an eye on him to make sure he’s keeping an eye on his customers, who are just keeping an eye on their food. I once waited a table occupied by an old couple, bothering them throughout the entirety of their meal with stupid questions like, “How’s the food?” and “You doin’ alright?”

I failed to realize that old people are slow and don’t cram food down their throats the second they get it; they need time to chew it with the few fragile teeth they have. So, they couldn’t have answered my question anyway. The tenth time I approached my customers’ table, the old man said to me, “You know, you’re ruining our dinner.” After whirling in a trance, I apolo-

gized woefully and brought him a second helping as a peace offering.

As a customer, I’ve made a habit of tidying up my table before I leave a restaurant. I’ll stack plates, gather silverware and wipe up any spills with my napkins so that the waiter has an easier time cleaning the table for the next set of guests.

This behavior may have stemmed from my home life, as my mom would always tell me to clean up my mess at the table when I’d finished eating.

If I leave a huge, horrific litter of food scraps, then my mom has to clean it up, and I feel some guilt for that. Naturally, I think of the waiter who has to clean up after me, so I

RESTAURANT FROM PAGE 6 try to help out a little. Some customers, don’t have these same thoughts when finishing their meals.

Often times it seems people actively try to vandalize the restaurant with our own food, children being the greatest offenders.

Greasy finger prints on the walls, ketchup foot prints on the floor, I’ve seen whole entrees scattered beneath tables and chairs as parents drag their tyrannical toddlers out to the car, heads down, while they lament the high price they

paid for such low-brow art.

I wipe the milk shake mural off the booth while I wonder where they’ll be eating next, as their children must have worked up quite an appetite while they were here.

Whether you’re serving or being served, surely you’ll notice many of the motifs of restaurant-dining: flummoxed waiters, slow eaters and no-eaters, and brooms and dustpans being used at every corner of the dining room. Don’t forget to tip your servers.

Sycamores capture YSU Kickoff Invitational title Ace Hunt

ISU Athletic Media Relations

Indiana State overcame a seven shot deficit in the final round to win the team championship of the 2016 Youngstown State Kickoff Invitational. The event was held at the 5,886-yard, par-70 layout of the Mill Creek North Golf Course.

The Sycamores’ entered the final day in third place after firing an opening round of 308. They came back with a 297 in the final round — the only sub-300 round of the tournament by any team -- to post a score of 605 and win the tournament.

“It would have been no fun otherwise to win the tournament in any other manner,” head coach Greg Towne said. “The course was set up fairly difficult and the team had to work themselves out of some tough situations. Overall, this is a solid start to the fall season.”

The Sycamores had three golfers in the individual Top 6, headlined by Marissa Uradomo who earned medalist honors for the fourth time in her career. Uradomo posted two rounds of 73 to finish with a tournament score of 146.

That finished one shot better than freshman Sierra Hargens who finished second in her first collegiate tournament. Hargens carded a round of 72 -- the best by an in-

dividual in the event -- to follow up her 75 and finished with a score of 147. In sixth place was sophomore Robyn Blanchard who bettered her opening round of 77 with a 75 to finish with a score of 152 and a sixth place finish.

Thilda Staubo cut six strokes off her opening round of 83 to post a 77 on the final day and her score of 160 was good enough for a tie for 25th place. Alex Jennings had an 81 on the second day after cardng a round of 84 on Monday for a tournament score of 165 and a tie for 32nd place.

Sophie Benetti played as an individual and her rounds of 82 and 80 gave her a score of 162 to finish in 30th.

Indiana State had rounds of 308 and 297 to finish in first place with a tournament tally of 605. Host Youngstown State was second with scores of 301 and 311 for a final score of 612. Cleveland State was third with rounds of 305 and 312 and a final score of 617. Dayton was fourth (310-313=623), Ashland was fifth (312320=632) and Northern Kentucky rounded out the field in sixth (317-315=632).

The Sycamores take a week off before travelling to Chicago for the Loyola Fall ISU Athletics Invitational on September 19-20. Indiana State will participate in five tournaments Marissa Uradomo headlined a winning effort for the Sycamores taking top individual during the fall campaign. honors at the Youngstown State Kickoff Invitational.

Sycamore soccer set to battle Butler RaShaun Jones Reporter

ISU Athletics

Redshirt junior Bob Pugh led the Sycamores in recieving yards Saturday and hauled in a 56-yard touchdown as well.

FOOTBALL FROM PAGE 1 made his presence felt once more as he stepped in front of a Weaver pass attempt and put the Sycamore offense in an advantageous position.

Lough finished the game with a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, an interception, a sack, a touchdown and eight tackles.

It didn’t take long for Harker to introduce himself to those present as he and the offense introduced themselves to the end zone early and often.

After working the ball to the one-yard line, Harker took the snap and wound his way into the end zone for the first offensive touchdown of the game and a 14-0 lead.

Harker would finish the game with

315 passing yards, completing 21-35 attempts and two passing touchdowns to go along with his one rushing. It was the first 300-yard passing performance for the Sycamores since Mike Parrish did it against Western Illinois in 2014.

Head coach Mike Sanford was pleased with Harker’s performance but acknowledged that there’s room for improvement.

“The exciting thing for me is that we see him every day,” Sanford said. “I know that Isaac has a lot better football in him than what he played today and I thought he did a good job.”

The Sycamores rolled over Butler as a warmup for the Sept. 10 game against Big Ten opponent Minnesota. Kickoff is set for noon and can be seen on ESPNews.

The Indiana State Sycamores are 3-3 on the season and set to travel to Indianapolis to face off against the Butler Bulldogs this Thursday.

The Sycamores are coming off of a tough defensive battle against Eastern Illinois last Saturday.

While grabbing the victory of a score of 2-0 over the Panthers, the Sycamores relied heavily on their defense. Both teams seemed to struggle when it came to putting the ball in the goal. Eastern Illinois was able to get off five shots but the stifling Sycamores’ defense made sure none of those shots were on goal.

Meanwhile, the Sycamores were able to get 10 shots, but only three on goal. Two of those resulted in scores.

Coming off their third shutout of the season, look for the Sycamores to rely heavily on their defense to get the job done.

Nevertheless, they have a knack of putting the ball trough the back of the net.

The Sycamores sit at the top of the Missouri Valley Conference standings in total goals and are also ranked second in assists with seven, and 25 points through six games. Showing that just because the defense is relied upon heavily, they are still able to put points on the board with the best of them.

The Butler Bulldogs are coming into the

matchup with the Sycamores with a 3-2-1 record. Splitting the weekend 1-1 while competing in the Hoosier Challenge Cup should make the Bulldogs hungry for a victory.

Coming in with only seven goals this season, look for the Sycamores to help stifle the Bulldog offense. However, the Bulldogs are led by their senior middle-fielder Serina Kashimoto who was selected first team all Big East in the past two seasons. Kashimoto leads the Bulldogs with a total of three goals.

Also, look for the Bulldogs to rely on sophomore forward Breann Pempek for help scoring; she currently has two goals on the season. McKenzie Muchow, who played in 24 games last season, also returns.

Leading the Sycamores into battle will be senior middle-fielder Maddie Orf who was already named offensive player of the week in the Missouri Valley Conference based on her play in the games against Akron and Western Illinois.

Senior midfielder Gaelen Stejbach was named this year’s first Scholar Athlete of the Week in the Missouri Valley Conference.

More importantly she is second on the team in points with four, and tied for first with goals scored.

Following Thursday’s game against Butler, you can catch the Lady Sycamores back at home on Sunday, Sept. 11 against Chicago State at 2 p.m.

Women’s soccer evens their record after weekend split Jeremy Patterson Reporter

The Indiana State women’s soccer program returned to Terre Haute Sunday evening with a 1-1 record from last weekend to put them at 3-3 for the season.

The Sycamores showed their strengths and weaknesses throughout the course of both games.

The offense struggled to an extent overall, while their defense, as they’ve been all season, was strong and aggressive.

Thursday, the team made the trip up to Northwestern where they faced off with the Wildcats, who entered the weekend ranked 25th in the nation.

The Sycamore offense staggered in the match, managing no shots on goal or corner kicks

throughout the entirety of the game. However, as has been the case all season, the team’s defensive set was tenacious in their efforts.

The Wildcats were not able to score until the 73rd minute where they seized the first lead of the game. They pinned another goal in the 85th minute to ultimately seal the loss for the Sycamores.

Despite the score, goalkeeper Brittany San Roman had an impressive game, saving 10 of the 12 shots on goal from Northwestern.

Taking the loss in stride, the Lady Trees gathered themselves and traveled to Charleston, Illinois where they took on the Eastern Illinois Panthers.

The match ended with a 2-0 Sycamore victory but the story of

the day was the defensive efforts of both teams.

The match was stagnant for 88 minutes until sophomore Katie Wells was able to score off of a deflected shot from freshman Caitlin Glascott.

Less than 60 seconds later, freshman Pam Silies capitalized on an offensive mistake from the Panthers, netting a goal of her own.

The Sycamores did not allow an Eastern Illinois shot on goal, posting their third shutout of the season.

Through six games, the Sycamores are 3-3. They look to develop even further this weekend as they travel to Indianapolis to take on the Butler Bulldogs, before returning to Memorial Stadium Sunday to take on Chicago State.
