Tuition concerns Staudt

By Jake.Dalbey @iowastatedaily.com

The Iowa Board of Regents welcomed student guests — representing Student Government member from all three regent universities — to speak on issues of tuition increase during its meeting Thursday.

Cole Staudt, Iowa State’s Student Government president, addressed the board at their Thursday meeting in Cedar Falls on the proposed 2 percent tuition increase for resident students and 3 percent increase for non-resident students, expressing issue with the possibility of a divide between resident and non-resident tuitions.

“I understand why we raise tuition and how the economy of Iowa has such a large impact on state funding,” Staudt said. “Over the summer, we saw the effect of this as all three universities scrambled to increase revenue to provide the quality education that I expect and that we all expect. My greatest concern is the growing divide between resident and non-resident tuitions.”

Staudt explained that during last spring’s proposed state funding increase, which ultimately failed, the burden was put on non-resident students. He said this is a problem because of the diverse amount of positive interactions brought to Iowa by those from different backgrounds.

“As an Iowan, I believe this is dangerous for the state, as nonresidents provide racial and ethnic diversity to a state that is 97 percent white,” Staudt said. ”This allows over 20,000 Iowans at ISU to explore new perspectives so everyone can begin to understand people.”

Staudt also said that despite nonresident students not growing up in Iowa, they still may end up staying within the state for a job or family.

This growth is a positive step toward attracting more international and non-resident students to Iowa regent universities, he said.

While stressing concerns over tuition increase, Staudt said he viewed several possible fee increases as positive.

A $24 increase to the student health fee will generate over $800,000 in new revenue that will go directly to the mental health resources for our students, he said.

Along with the $24 health fee increase, a $30 technology fee increase also was proposed to provide significant technology upgrades.

“I would like to express support for the $130 records fee that will be assessed upon reticulation that over the course of a student’s time at Iowa State will take fees that would have come out of their pocket and allow them to go into a financial aid

THE NUMBER THAT MEANS SO MUCH

By Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com

T

he first number Dawn Sullivan presented to Suzanne Horner was the No.

17.

The two sat with Suzanne’s dad, Todd, in the volleyball offices of Hilton Coliseum.

The number struck something deep within Suzanne, but she didn’t quite know what it was.

It was as if an old, flickering light bulb had been turned on.

The light knew it wanted to perfectly illuminate the room, but it didn’t know why.

And just like that.

The light stopped flickering.

It shone brighter than ever before.

The new Iowa State volleyball setter knew she had to take the No. 17.

The beginning Mike Schall invited Elizabeth Horner, Suzanne’s older sister, to a club volleyball tryout when Elizabeth was eight years old.

Schall was an assistant volleyball coach at perennial powerhouse Penn State for 15 years before he left the program in 2006.

While he was there the Nittany Lions won nine Big 10 titles and accumulated an overall record of 447-67.

Schall went to the Horner’s church in State College, Pennsylvania.

He’s the one that sparked the fire.

Elizabeth’s first practice was in January – she was terrified.

Everyone else at the practice was four years older than her.

Todd made a deal with her: “I said, ‘Listen, you have to go for four weeks. I will stay in the gym, I’ll be there the whole time, but you have to give it four weeks. If after four weeks you absolutely hate it, and you just cannot stand it, and you don’t want to do it anymore. Then you don’t have to go back.’”

A half hour into the practice Elizabeth said, “Bye dad.”

She fell in love.

“She took to it like a fish to water,” Todd said.

When Elizabeth would get home, her and Suzanne would go to the backyard, and Elizabeth would teach her younger sister everything she learned that day.

Suzanne was 6 years old and was shorter than the bottom of the net.

“It’s some of my favorite memories,” Suzanne said. “I remember … just trying to hit the ball over, and trying to pass it up and over the net to each other.

“The first time we got five passes back in a row it was so cool.”

Suzanne, like her older sister, began playing competitive volleyball at 8 years old.

Madeline Albright stumps for Clinton

By Shannon.McCarty @iowastatedaily.com The responsibility U.S. citizens have to vote is what Madeleine Albright, the former secretary of state, said she is most concerned about in this ill-mannered 2016 presidential election.

“I have been involved in politics for a very long time,” Albright said to ISU students and Ames community members Thursday. “I have always loved political campaigns — this is not my favorite one.”

With 17 days until Election Day, Albright has been feverishly stumping across the nation for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Albright has made numerous stops this week all over Iowa, including at an Islamic center in Waterloo that had been vandalized.

Albright was on Iowa State’s campus Thursday, discussing the campaign and national security to a full auditorium in the College of Design building. The lecture was part of the Campaign 2016 Series.

“I think the lack of civility in [the campaign] is very troubling, the lack of respect the candidates have for each other and just generally the kind of mood out there,” Albright said.

From 1997 to 2001, Albright served as the first female U.S. secretary of state. She has also served as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations as well as being a member

Former Secretary of State Madeline Albright discusses national security as part of the ISU Lecture Series.

Albright encouraged attendees to vote for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

on the National Security Council on Capitol Hill.

Albright shared with the audience her history of being an immigrant from Czechoslovakia and in her opinion, what being an American citizen is all about — voting.

“As a naturalized American, when people ask me what is the most important thing that ever happened in my life it was becoming an American and that privilege of voting,” Albright said.

The former secretary of state expressed concern of people not going out to the voting booths due to this year’s presidential campaign being what she called unpleasant. Albright said protest votes won’t get people anything, especially for those who are in a swing state such as Iowa.

“Being a citizen is voting,” Albright said.

In an interview with the Daily, Albright said if unmotivated students don’t get out and vote, they will only have themselves to blame.

“A vote is the most powerful thing that we all have,” Albright said. “This vote will determine what this country is like for the foreseeable future of all the young students.”

During her speech, Albright shared a story of her being on a plane and meeting a salesman who she had spoken with and taken a picture with. Later on in the flight Albright said she learned he had voted early for Trump and that she felt she couldn’t talk to him anymore.

But she quickly changed her

mind, realizing that she had to talk to him, she said.

“Voting on Nov. 8 is important,” Albright said. “Talking on Nov. 9 and bringing our country back together is what also is very important.”

As for national security, Albright discussed the importance of the U.S. relationship with China, saying she believes it is, “the most important relationship of the 21st century for the U.S.” The secretary added that China and the United States both need each other economically and to stop North Korea.

“From my perspective, Hillary Clinton is the best candidate,” Albright said. “Secretary Clinton was the person that was truly behind the rebalancing of Asia to show that we are both an Atlantic and Pacific power.”

When it comes to the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Albright told the Daily she believes Trump poses an unusually dangerous threat to the United States’ national security. “[Trump] has the wrong temperament for [the presidency],” Albright said. “You can’t show anger, and that’s what worries me.”

Albright said one of the first things a person learns when going into office is the first information one receives is usually wrong, saying, you have to assess what the situation is.

“I don’t think he understands the issues; he is not respected abroad,” Albright said. “Hillary is.”

Martin Chitty makes case for supervisor

By Emily.Hammer @iowastatedaily.com Over coffee and donuts, Martin Chitty discussed the future of Story County if he were reelected as Story County supervisor in the second Coffee with the Candidate.

Chitty, the Republican nominee, was chosen as the incumbent by a committee of three after Paul Toot’s unexpected death in May left an opening on the Story County Board of Supervisors.

Chitty believes that being chosen to replace Toot speaks to his qualifications and has also given him months of experience as a county supervisor that other

candidates don’t have.

He also touched on his 26 years at FedEx, which he says helped him get to know people and businesses, something he believes will be advantageous if re-elected.

“I can speak to these people in ways that I don’t have to introduce myself,” Chitty said. “I am a known quantity.”

Growing up in rural Story County also has shaped Chitty and his goals.

Driving on rural gravel roads near his home and pavement

streets for work, he feels he has extensive knowledge about the roads and transportation of Story County.

This extensive knowledge, Chitty said, means that he knows better than any other candidate about what needs to be done, and he plans to do it.

Because he is an Iowa native, Chitty also hopes to gain the vote of Iowa State students as he feels many come from a similar background as him: rural Iowa.

He also wants to motivate students to get involved in their community.

“I was asked to serve in my community. If I can do it, they can do it,” he said.

Chitty is also proud that Story County has the lowest tax rate in

all 99 counties of Ames.

Following with standard Republican beliefs, Chitty maintains that no government agency should take more than it needs, and Story County’s low tax rates reflect the county’s adherence to such ideology.

“Government agencies are here and empowered to do people’s business, nothing else,” Chitty said.

He also briefly touched on the housing issue in Ames as rent prices continue to increase.

Part of the cause of this, Chitty said, is the huge success in Ames and in Iowa State.

He plans to reach out to people and businesses as Story County supervisor to see about bringing rent prices back down.

His goals if he is re-elected county supervisor are to be effective, impactful and make a difference.

Chitty said that on his first day in office as Toot’s replacement, he didn’t sit in awe of his new position; he set goals to make a difference in Story County.

“I underpromise, but I overdeliver,” Chitty said.

Chitty ended by saying that when he is done as county supervisor, people will know that he was there because of the difference he made.

The Coffee with the Candidate series will continue with other supervisor candidates before Election Day 2016, which is Nov. 8. Early voting is already underway.

Professors gain national notoriety

By Andrea.Dahl @iowastatedaily.com

Charlie Coffey/Iowa State Daily

Volunteers at the ISU Sustainability Fair tune up bikes on Thursday in the Agora. The fair celebrated National Campus Sustainability Day.

Sustaining the ISU campus Organizations encourage local community to choose eco-friendly options

By Haley.Knudsen @iowastatedaily.com Over 50 student organizations, campus groups and local businesses gathered Thursday on the Parks Library Lawn to celebrate National Campus Sustainability Day, which was hosted

by Live Green! and The Green Umbrella.

National Campus Sustainability Day is an initiative set forward to highlight the ways different organizations are making the community more sustainable.

Molly Breen, sophomore in finance, believes that being sustainable is crucial for the future.

“We want to have a good future without ruining the present,” Breen said.

Breen, along with Paige Vanderleest, junior in public relations, are two interns at the Office of Sustainability who organized this year’s event. They want to educate and inform students on the many organizations around them that support sustainability.

“The main thing we want students to know is that is doesn’t take a lot to be sustainable,” Vaderleest said. “You

can implement simple practices in your everyday life, simply by turning off the lights in your dorm room, or bringing a reusable cup to the Hub and get a 35-cent discount.

“We just want everyone to recognize that those small steps create change.”

Carlyn Hill, senior in industrial engineering, also proposed easy ways for students to reduce their footprint.

“Every little thing can help,” Hill said. Recycle, turn off the lights when you’re not using them and lessen your water use.”

Hill is the president of the Climate Reality Campus Corps, a part of the Climate Reality Project founded by Al Gore in 2006.

The Campus Corps program launched last year and has 18 campus locations with students standing up to their peers and motivating them to sign up for 100 percent clean energy on their campus by 2030.

“I know that as an engineer, there is a moral obligation to not only take on challenges that will change the world but promote solutions that are better for everyone in a society as a whole,” Hill said.

Hill mentioned that in order to “act

globally, you have to think locally,” which is exactly what Ross Stickler, sophomore in environmental science, is doing by promoting Save the Boundary Waters at Campus Sustainability Day. “This is Iowa, so not many people know about the boundary waters as people from Minnesota,” Stickler said.

Save the Boundary Waters is a leading effort to protect the boundary waters of Minnesota from proposed sulfide-ore mining near the edge of the bounty water wilderness, which is one of the most pristine wilderness areas in the country.

Andrea Gronau, store manager at Worldly Goods, a nonprofit trade store in downtown Ames, took a different spin on spreading the word about sustainability. Gronau handed out samples of soap nuts for students to do laundry with.

“We’re giving out samples of soap nuts to do laundry with no chemicals, just like nature intended,” Gronau said.

There are two more events that will be hosted on campus this school year hosted by the Office of Sustainability, including a Sustainapalooza in the winter and Earth Day in the spring.

Two Iowa State professors were elected to the National Academy of Medicine this week.

The academy, acknowledging decades devoted to research, elected James Roth, distinguished professor of vet microbiology and preventive medicine, and Alicia Carriquiry, distinguished professor of statistics.

“I was surprised and very honored to be elected, especially as an Iowan who spent his whole career here,” Roth said.

Roth, who grew up on a farm in Hartwick, Iowa, graduated from Iowa State in 1975 with a doctorate in veterinary medicine and a Ph.D. in veterinary microbiology, and returned to his hometown, where he worked for two years. He then came back to Iowa State as a faculty member and focused his research for the next 30 years on infectious diseases in livestock.

While his initial research focused on developing vaccines for diseases, he later shifted his work toward food security and public health.

“We are in an era with an increase in new diseases, where our need to feed the world’s growing population is critical,” Roth said.

Roth said recognizing and supervising diseases before they get out of control is an important aspect of his work, but said he has a supportive team behind him.

“The main challenge is finding funding,” he said.

“Fortunately, I’ve been pretty successful in that area.”

Roth is the first professor in the ISU Veterinary Medicine program to be elected

to the National Academy of Medicine.

Carriquiry grew up in Montevideo, Uruguay, and graduated with an engineering degree in 1981 from the Universidad de la República — the only university in Uruguay at the time.

She immediately began working for the Uruguayan government but did not enjoy her work.

Carriquiry had concerns about her career and never dreamed she would end up as a professor of statistics.

Running Club set to host cross-country regionals this weekend

By Tara.Larson @iowastatedaily.com For the first time in four years, the Running Club at Iowa State is hosting the regional meet on its own turf.

The Running Club will host the Great Plains Regionals on Sunday in Ames. This will be the first time since 2012 that Ames will host the meet.

“It’s cool to represent Iowa State this way,” said Jordan Larson, a women’s team captain.

The regional meet is for running clubs throughout the area of Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Wis-

REGENTS p1 package,” Staudt said.

The proposed tuition rates, fee increases and graduate tuition increases moved on as recommended for approval during the December Board of Regents meeting.

Along with tuition, a new computer learning system is planned to debut testing at Iowa State, focusing on teaching college students the importance and fundamentals of financial literacy.

CashCourse is an online program that creates a class-like atmosphere to teach students about topics such as spending, repaying loans, budgeting and credit vs. debit.

The Student Loan Education Office will ultimately be responsible for the program delivery and is received at a $0 purchase requisition agreement, which was approved to move forward.

CashCourse hopes to educate users through modules, activities and articles. Undergraduate students are expected to be hired as peer mentors to help teach the program, while graduate students look over peer mentors.

Tahira Hira, a member of the President’s Advisory Council on Financial Literacy at Iowa State, spoke highly of the program, stating the importance of financial literacy knowledge among college students.

“There is so much evi-

consin and Missouri that are a part of the National Intercollegiate Running Club Association (NIRCA). Out of the 14 teams including Iowa State in this region, 12 will compete in the races this weekend.

This is also the first year that Drake University from Des Moines has a club, and runners will participate in the race this weekend.

“There will be 341 total runners at this [event],” said Adrian Ortega, vice president of the club. “[From Iowa State], there’s 33 males competing and I would say under 20 females.”

Women will run a 6K, which is

dence of the impact of financial ignorance matters, and the consequences are large,” Hira said.

Citing the 2008 economy, Hira spoke about the importance of being financially literate in order to make proper decisions on housing mortgages. She hopes the content of the course will keep students engaged.

“If this course is not meaningful, students are smart and they won’t do it,” Hira said. “If it is meaningful, then they will learn that what they are learning is important to them.”

Both Iowa State Provost Jonathan Wickert and Leath presented on the goals of Iowa State as well as accomplishments obtained by the university.

Enrollment is on a recordsetting pace, they said, as the current 36,600 students is up by 23 percent, as well as a 22 percent increase in research funding reaching $252.2 million.

With debt and tuition being a large focus of the two-day meeting, Iowa State reported an 8.5 percent decrease in average student debt since 2011-12. The average debt for resident Iowa State students is currently $13,023, with 1 in 3 students having no debt at graduation.

Iowa State also reported a 95 percent job placement rate for undergraduates as well as increased ACT scores for new freshmen.

about 3.7 miles, while men will run an 8K, which is about five miles. Both races will take place at Iowa State’s cross-country course, with the women’s beginning at 9 a.m. and the men at 10:15 a.m.

Larson and Ortega agreed that being able to host regionals will be beneficial to the team.

“We’ve been able to practice on the course, which is an advantage over other teams,” Ortega said.

The course is completely grass with some rolling hills. There is a wooded area that is the most challenging part, Ortega said, with steeper and longer hills.

To go on to compete at NIRCA

Cross Country Nationals, a runner needs to participate in any NIRCA race. Ortega said there is a 5K opportunity the day of nationals that allows those who missed regionals to still compete in the national race.

Nationals will take place Nov. 12 in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Larson said that only three women from Iowa State are planning on competing and about twelve men.

“For this season, I believe that we have a chance of winning a regional title,” Ortega said. “Another goal is placing top five at the national meet.”

Once nationals is over, the

cross-country season will also come to an end. But track workouts will begin in January to prepare for indoor and eventually outdoor track meets.

The club also has begun working on fundraisers. It hosted the first ‘Mile on Main Street’ on Sept. 17. This was a one-mile road race that started in Tom Evans park and led to Main Street. Part of every registration fee went to a donation to NephCure Kidney International, a kidney disease organization.

“The race went well,” Larson said about Mile on Main Street.

“We plan on making this an annual event.”

Identity shines at LatinX event

By Whitney.Mason @iowastatedaily.com The collaboration of greek chapters of Lambda Theta Alpha, Gamma Rho Lambda and Delta Lambda Phi put forth the conclusion of Coming Out Week on Thursday evening in Morrill Hall.

“What is the next generation going to call themselves?” The presenter, Santos Nunez Galicia, adviser in the College of Engineering, asked a diverse audience to began the presentation.

“It begins here,” she said, pointing to her chest, referring to identity.

LatinX, a term that has been used since 2004, started in queer communities of color.

“They wanted a term to define us, people of color,” Galicia said.

The term saw a drop in usage before seeing a huge surge in 2014, and is still heavily used today through social media.

Galicia explained the origin of LatinX as a neutral alternative to Latin, and said that it rejects the use of masculine and feminine in the English language and gender and LGBT community exclusiveness.

Galicia and her panelists, consisting of Priscilla, who identifies as pansexual and an alumni of Iowa State; David, who identifies as gay and a current Cyclone Aide; Kristen, who identifies as gay; and Ana, who identifies as bisexual, all disclosed the difficulty using LatinX with their families and elders.

Chris Jorgensen/Iowa State Daily Panel members introduce themselves Thursday at the LatinX event in Morrill Hall. The event was hosted

It’s difficult to say the english “X” in Spanish, multiple panelists noted.

“It also seems disrespectful in the Spanish language,” Galicia said.

David vividly spoke of an experience with his father at the age of 5.

“He came up to me and slapped my wrist and I started crying,” David said. “He told me that he hit me because of the way I was standing.

I had my hands on my hip — I was standing like a girl.”

From then on, he remembers trying to act masculine to try to please his father.

When he came out to his parents during his teen years, surprisingly, his father was the most supportive, he said.

Kristen remembers telling her older brother about her sexuality and his original acceptance, but after he began to attend a Catholic university, she quickly saw his attitude shift drastically. ”He told me in the kitchen one

day, ‘I don’t appreciate you telling me this, that you like girls,” Kristen said.

She credits this confrontation as the changing point in their relationship.

Anna recalls being more scared to tell her family than her friends.

She said her sister told her mother about her sexuality and her mother cried after learning. But now her mom tries to educate herself on LGBT topics.

After brief questions answered by panelists and a presentation that turned into small discussion groups involving panelists and the audience, Galicia had everyone come together, and turned everyone’s attention to the board, where she drew a linear line and then a spiral line.

“It’s too much to let one term identify me,” Galicia said while receiving a few chuckles from the audience. “Don’t limit yourself to one label. Don’t limit your mind.”

EDITORIAL

ISD Editorial Board endorsements Hillary Clinton

It seems that the 2016 presidential race has brought out the worst in our country. Undeniably divisive and unprecedentedly vicious, this election has left many angry, unsatisfied and disappointed in our electoral system.

For many, both Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton represent the failure of our two-party system to provide Americans with the best possible option to lead our country.

And with third-party candidates providing no electable nor reasonable alternative, the American people are left to decide between a scandal-riddled politician and a childish, impulsive megalomaniac.

To the ISD Editorial Board, that choice is obvious, which is why we have chosen to endorse Hillary Clinton for president of the United States.

When Americans cast their ballots on Nov. 8, we are not only voting to decide who our next leader will be, but also what direction our country will take. In a sense, the presidential election decides who we are as a nation.

The next president will not only be the chief diplomat of our nation, a position that makes them the face our country, but he or she also will represent the type of person who we believe to be the ideal citizens.

Does the ideal American brag about sexual assault? Do they accuse Hispanics of being rapists and murderers? Does our perfect citizen mock disabled journalists and insult Gold Star families because of their religion?

From war heroes to people of faith, Trump has

Kim Weaver

It’s time to elect Kim Weaver to the U.S. House of Representatives and leave behind our national embarrassment, Rep. Steve King.

Weaver, an Iowa State alumna, acknowledges that student loan debt could very well be the next national financial crisis — a real concern for Iowa college students who experience among the highest debt in the country.

She has several plans to reduce or eliminate student loan debt, including implementing a national volunteer program where graduates could volunteer in exchange for debt relief.

Beyond that, she recognizes the role immigrants play in vitalizing Iowa’s economy, especially when it comes to the costs of farm labor.

She supports a clear, common-sense path to citizenship for those already working in the country that would have them begin paying taxes if they don’t already.

Finally, Weaver simply cares about people. She is pro-choice, anti-death penalty, opposes the Keystone XL pipeline, supports gun control and same-sex marriage and believes climate change is a real and present threat.

King said supporting Donald Trump “is not a

Patty Judge

The U.S. Congress needs fresh faces — people who are willing to get things done, move forward and work to create public policy. As a former Iowa secretary of agriculture and lieutenant governor, Patty Judge is much more poised to do that than a six-term Sen. Chuck Grassley.

Judge has faced obstacles during each step of her political career. She worked hard as secretary of agriculture as the first woman to fill the role in a male-dominated industry. In 2008, Judge dealt with the worst economic struggles the county had seen since the Great Depression as lieutenant governor. Her ability to overcome obstacles and continue to be successful are essential to her role as a U.S. senator.

Grassley, who has in many ways done well in supporting Iowans, hasn’t fulfilled his public

founded his short political career on ostracizing minorities, lying about his opponents and engaging in juvenile, often vulgar rhetoric.

Not only does he lack the temperament to be president, but his failed meeting with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto as well as his ridiculous outlook on foreign policy put our country at a diplomatic disadvantage.

For a candidate who has built the positive aspects of his campaign around his knowledge of business and plan to strengthen the U.S economy, it is horrifying that he refuses to respond when his vague economic plan is torn to pieces by even the most conservative of economists.

Furthermore, his refusal to accept the outcome of the election if it doesn’t turn out in his favor is the pinnacle of his anti-American, anti-democratic joke of a campaign.

Clinton, on the other hand, has a résumé that speaks for itself. One of the most experienced individuals in politics, Clinton has proven, at least nominally, her foreign policy experience and her ability to work beyond party lines.

Instead of focusing on what separates us, Clinton’s campaign has focused on building upon the diversity that makes the United States what it’s meant to be and creating a middle class that can provide a backbone for the U.S. economy.

And while Trump has made it a habit to belittle women, minorities and anyone else who disagrees with him, Clinton has made it her life’s work to create an inclusive and fair America.

Clinton, however, is not an unmarred candidate. With various scandals plaguing her political career, Clinton has become the poster child for the untrustworthy, corrupt politician to many Americans. It is for that reason that the American hard decision” even after the “Access Hollywood” tape revealed Trump describing sexually assaulting women, cited Bush v. Gore as an example of the effects of voter fraud, does not believe in climate change because he sees it as “more of a religion than a science,” introduced a bill that would have blocked Harriet Tubman from gracing the $20 bill because “she didn’t change the course of history,” doubled down on this by saying it would be “racist” and “sexist” add her to currency and called Colin Kaepernick’s national anthem protest “sympathetic to ISIS.” King said the Supreme Court decision granting same-sex marriage rights meant people could marry their lawnmowers, claimed racial profiling is not an issue in Ferguson, Missouri, because protesters “appear to be of a single...continental origin,” asserted that white people have undoubtedly contributed more than “any other subgroup of people” in history and worried that there’s no legal way to stop male “pranksters” from entering the girls’ restroom thanks to laws that allow transgender people to use the bathroom that corresponds to their gender.

He said some immigrant children have “calves the size of cantaloupes” from hauling drugs into the country, accused President Barack Obama of “shredding” the Constitution for supporting the name change of North America’s tallest moun-

duty in the past few months. His resistance to act on the Senate’s calling to hold a hearing for Obama’s Supreme Court nominee is a perfect example of that. In order for the Supreme Court to do its job, it needs a ninth member.

Grassley’s resistance is especially outrageous considering that the hearing would allow the Senate to disapprove the nominee if it chose to do so.

Furthermore, like Trump, Grassley has asked that Obama use the term radical Islam because not doing so “can allow the radicals to hide behind the good name of Islam.”

What Grassley fails to see is that doing so is not allowing radicals to hide behind Islam, but allowing others to attribute all Muslims to terrorism. Grassley hasn’t asked that Christians who commit terrorist attacks be called radical Christians, so it would appear his requests to use the term radical Islam is prejudice toward one religion.

Tyler Coffey/Iowa State Daily

Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton is running against Republican candidate Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential race.

people must hold Clinton accountable, more so than any other president.

In spite of this, Clinton is far and away the best choice. She represents an America that provides for its citizens, one that accepts others for their differences and embraces cultural and religious diversity.

She is respected and admired by our allies and has consistently fought for the rights of women and minorities throughout the world. And when it comes to a contest between experience and rhetoric, experience should always win.

So while Clinton may not be the perfect choice for president, she is the only option if we want an America with effective foreign policy, inclusive social programs, a strengthened economy and an atmosphere of equality for all citizens.

Emily Blobaum/Iowa State Daily

Democrat Kim Weaver is running against Republican incumbant Steve King for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.

tain to Denali, believes in a “natural family” that consists of a man and a woman because he claims “the evidence is very heavy” that this is the “best way” for a child to be raised, has a Confederate flag on his desk and defended it by claiming only a “small part of [the Civil War] was about slavery” and also said there’s “nothing for [the U.S.] to apologize for” when it comes to slavery.

In fewer words, the choice is clear. The ISD Editorial Board endorses Kim Weaver to represent Iowa’s 4th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Charlie Coffey/Iowa State Daily

Former Iowa Lieutenant Gov. Patty Judge is running against six-term Sen. Chuck Grassley for a seat in the U.S. Senate.

It is for these reasons that the ISD Editorial Board endorses Judge over Grassley to represent Iowa in the U.S Senate.

Important local elections Know how to register With all of the rhetoric and fervor surrounding the highest-elected position in the country, it’s easy to forget the importance of local elections. These elections may not hold the same level of excitement and entertainment to many voters.

But they are some of the most important elections happening this season.

Both state and local elections affect your everyday life more than you may think. Local officials have a say in many day-to-day issues such as city parking and zoning ordinances to state issues such as water quality and funding for the state universities. These elected positions matter.

So, before you cast your ballot, whether early, by mail or on election day, take

some time to identify your Iowa House and Senate districts and who’s running to represent you in our state assembly.

Three Iowa House of Representatives districts that cover all or part of Iowa State’s campus and the surrounding areas are up for re-election this November.

District 46 contains much of Iowa State’s campus and is represented by Rep. Lisa Heddens, a Democratic incumbent who is running unopposed this year. District 45 is mostly south and west of campus and has three candidates running.

Democrat Beth WesselKroeschell is the incumbent running against Republican Sondra Childs-Smith and Libertarian Eric Cooper. In District 48, which is mostly

north of Ames, Republican incumbent Robert Bacon is being challenged by Democrat Sherrie Taha.

Only one Iowa Senate district is up for election this year. Iowa Senate District 24 is mostly located north and west of Ames.

In this district, Republican incumbent Jerry Behn is running against Democrat Keith Puntenney. Sen. Herman Quirmbach represents Iowa Senate District 23 and is not up for re-election this year.

Several county-level elections also are on the ballot this year, along with votes to retain local judges. For information about your polling location and to see a sample ballot before you vote, go to the Story County website.

The pre-registration deadline for Iowa voters is Oct. 24 by mail or Oct. 29 online.

You can register and vote on Election Day, but it will take more time than preregistration. Either way, registration is required for all voters. To pre-register, you need to complete the voter registration form and return it to the county auditor’s office. For online registration, a driver’s licence or non-operator ID is required. You can also register to vote at the Memorial Union.

As an Iowa State student, you need to decide whether you want to cast your vote here or at your home address.

The Story County official website provides helpful

Katy Klopfenstein/Iowa State Daily

information for voters and can be a valuable resource to use.

You can check your voter registration status online, as well as obtain the voter registration form. Specific information regarding voting for students also is available.

Your decision will help write the next four years of the American story, so go out and vote.

TENNIS FOCUSES ON DEVELOPING YOUTH

Friday, October 21, 2016

Lani Tons/Iowa State Daily

Iowa State senior Samantha Budai returns the ball against Kansas on April 10 at the Forker Tennis Courts. The Cyclones will travel to Colorado Springs, Colorado, this weekend to compete in the Colorado State Invitational.

By Tyler.Julson @iowastatedaily.com With only two meets left in the fall season, the Iowa State tennis team is now turning to its youngest members in hopes that they gain some needed tournament experience before spring play.

The Cyclones will take a young lineup into the Colorado State Invitational this weekend in Fort Collins, Colorado.

It will be the first time this season that the team will see a head-to-head format in the conference schedule.

The players heading to Colorado are redshirt sophomore Liera Bender, sophomores Claudia Toledo, Erin Freeman, Regina Espindola and Annabella Bonadonna and freshman Maty Cancini.

Coach Armando Espinosa believes it is important for the younger players on the team to get some playing time in.

“It gives the ladies that were not able to compete at the last tournament a chance to prove themselves,” Espinosa said.

“We’ll be able to see different doubles pairings … I think allowing the kids that haven’t been playing a lot to get that opportunity to play, and that’s the most important thing this week.”

A couple of the young players have already garnered some experience at tournaments this fall. Cancini and Espindola both participated last week at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) regional tournament in Minneapolis.

“I think it went well for us because we were really mentally prepared for it,” Espindola said.

“I don’t think that anyone really expected us to get that good of results. I think we could still improve our attitude on the court a little, but other than [that], overall we played really [well].”

Before the ITA regional tournament, the Cyclones were practicing by paying more attention to their fundamentals and their mentality on the court.

With two meets left in the season, Espinosa is excited to see the different possibilities of the weekend, something teams that have already finished their fall don’t have.

“I’m excited to know that the teams we’ll be playing in the spring have already finished their fall season,” Espinosa said.

“We still have two tournaments and an extra week of practice, so I’m excited to have a little more time with the kids. Even though

we started a little bit later, that allows us to prolong our season by a little bit.”

Focus in practice during the last week has had a similar feel to the last few weeks. Espinosa is still emphasizing footwork and mental preparation.

“We have worked a lot on movements this week,” Espindola said. “We worked on staying focused all the time and staying positive whether you are up or down on the score. You just have to prepare for everything and never give up at any point.”

The team of young Cyclones will start play on Friday against Colorado State and Wyoming in separate dual matchups. Each dual will consist of three doubles matches and six singles matches.

Play will continue through Sunday with the team facing different challengers each day.

Tournament info What: Colorado State Invitational Where: Colorado Springs, Colorado, at the University Tennis Complex When: Friday to Sunday.

Who: Regina Espindola, Maty Cancini, Claudia Toledo, Annabella Bonadonna, Erin Freeman and Liera Bender.

V-ball seeks revenge

By Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com

Lyn Keren/Iowa State Daily

Iowa State senior forward Koree Willer kicks the ball away from TCU defenders on Oct. 7 at the Cyclone Sports Complex. Iowa State will play against Baylor on Friday in Waco, Texas.

Soccer weaves in, out of Big 12

By Rich.Stevens @iowastatedaily.com Things don’t always go according to plan. On Tuesday night, Drake scored a goal to clinch a win against the Iowa State soccer team in double overtime. For the Cyclones, it was just another game it has to move on from.

Drake, which was a favorite to win the Missouri Valley Conference, was poised to do so with a 9-1-1 mark entering conference play. The Bulldogs have since faltered, going 0-3-1 in conference.

After a disappointing Friday night and its final home game of the season, Iowa State (8-6-1, 2-3-1 Big 12) will head to Waco, Texas, to take on the No. 24 Baylor Bears (11-4-1, 4-1-1 Big 12) at 7 p.m. Friday.

While Baylor plays similarly to Iowa State with its 4-3-3 style, coach Tony Minatta is mostly concerned about its athleticism and high pace of play.

“They’re physical,” said captain Koree Willer.

“They’re athletes. It’s going to be a game of endurance.

We’re going to have to be composed as a unit if we’re expecting to put goals in the back of the net.”

With a high-octane offensive push, the Cyclone defense will be tested early and often.

Baylor is riding a threegame winning streak, and its only loss in the conference season was against the top team in both the Big 12 and the country, No. 1 West Virginia.

Although a win or a tie will help the Cyclones in the seeding for the Big 12 tournament, they’ve already clinched a trip there for the first time since 2013.

After a tough conference game in Texas, Iowa State will return to Iowa for the final in-state game of the season at 1 p.m. Sunday in Cedar Falls. Northern Iowa (8-5-3, 2-1-2 Missouri Valley) also is similar to Iowa State.

Despite comparable records and styles of play, the Cyclones boast a deeper bench than the Panthers.

Northern Iowa also is undefeated at home.

“UNI is more of an indirect team,” Minatta said. “They like to sit behind the ball and counter out. They prefer to make us try to put it in, rather than opening up the field. It can be frustrating, and [we] need to capitalize on opportunities.”

The team is entering a rocky part of the schedule.

While that isn’t to say there was an easy part of Iowa State’s schedule, battling through West Virginia and Texas, and then switching focus away from conference play to a team that had nothing to lose was not easy.

Now, the team faces Baylor, the second best team in conference, only to once again switch focus to a game against a non-conference opponent with a chip on its shoulder.

Minatta’s mantra about taking each game at a time worked well during the nonconference schedule. The team suffered some tough losses in the non-conference

schedule but easily bounced back. It’s struggled to find its way back after conference loses.

But the seniors have been leading the team to competitive matches, so the wins aren’t far behind.

“We just want to go out and get wins for the upperclassmen,” said freshman Hannah Cade. “They’ve all earned us working harder and harder every day. I know I expect that from myself, and I hope it passes down to the underclassmen when I’m a senior.”

Iowa State will attempt to bounce back in a big way this weekend. With only three games left on the schedule, the Cyclones will need to impress in order to earn their first bid, which would most likely be an at-large bid, to the NCAA tournament since 2005.

Iowa State volleyball was tabbed to finish third in the Big 12 in the preseason. It currently sits at No. 7 with a 2-5 record.

The Cyclones will get their first shot at revenge on Saturday when the team travels to Fort Worth, Texas, to play TCU. The last time it played in Ames, TCU won in five sets.

It had a balanced attack with six players recording at least nine kills.

The Horned Frogs also recorded 12 blocks. Their attack and blocking numbers were a product of the Horned Frogs’ 6-2 system.

This time around, Iowa State is also running a 6-2

system, which has brought success to the team recently.

Since the switch to the 6-2, Iowa State has had a very balanced and potent attack of its own.

And with three hitters always in the front row, it makes for a bigger block — much like TCU.

Hockey to host Bronchos

By Mary.Rominger @iowastatedaily.com Stepping into their fourth regular season series of the year, Cyclone Hockey will host Central Oklahoma at 7:30 p.m. both Friday and Saturday.

Cyclone Hockey was ranked No. 1 in week five of the American Collegiate Hockey Association rankings for the fourth consecutive week, which is no surprise when looking at the team’s performances thus far in its undefeated season.

On the opposite end of the ice, Central Oklahoma moved down three spots in the rankings to No. 8 after going 1-1 in its last series against Arizona State.

The Cyclones are returning from two wins against their biggest rival, Lindenwood.

They hope to continue that momentum against Central Oklahoma.

“It’s another tough weekend,” said goaltender Derek Moser. “Central Oklahoma is historically a solid program.”

All elements across the Cyclone lineup are executing their respective game plans successfully, al-

though playing a complete game has been a trouble area that the team hopes to end this weekend.

On the contrary, the success the team has had so far speaks measures to the talent and foundation its owns.

A key factor for the Cyclones is another reliable performance from Moser.

Moser and the team will be put to the test once again against Central Oklahoma, which knocked the Cyclones out of the national tournament two seasons ago when it won the national championship.

“I feel good,” Moser said. “Our practices are going well for me, and that is helping me out in games.”

Last season, the Cyclones struggled against

the Bronchos and will need a full-game effort from the entire team to come out with a sweep this weekend.

“We have a strong mindset, every game counts,” Moser said. “I don’t think we are focusing too much on the undefeated record.

We are just playing one game at a time.”

SPORTS HORNER p1 Once Suzanne began competitive volleyball, the two sisters began to pepper in their backyard. It wasn’t always an easy process.

“It was so frustrating,” Elizabeth said. “It would take us a good at least 10 minutes to get two contacts in a row.”

Once they found success, they couldn’t stop.

“I remember when we peppered and we got our first five hits back in a row.

We were just like, ‘Oh my gosh, this is the coolest thing!’” Suzanne said. “We just couldn’t get enough of it.”

The sister’s fell in love with the sport.

“It was so much fun,” Elizabeth said. “I played pretty much nonstop – until the concussion.”

The transfer Iowa State volleyball coach Christy JohnsonLynch emailed Suzanne in the spring of 2014.

“I remember calling Christy up, and we talked about the timeline since I had started classes at Mississippi State my freshman spring semester.”

Suzanne enrolled at Iowa State after dropping all of her classes. “[When] she offered me and I was like, ‘Yes, this is exactly what I want out of volleyball.’ I wanted volleyball to be fun and I didn’t care if I played or not.”

Suzanne started her first spring game at Iowa State, she recorded 50 assists against Creighton.

The only problem was her No. 10 was taken by Victoria Hurtt.

The first concussion Elizabeth dove for a ball when she was in middle school.

She made the play, but she hit the back of her head against the floor. She was immediately subbed out.

Her parents, Todd and Heather, came over to check on her.

“The way the courts are laid out, there’s numbers up in the corner,” Todd said.

“I remember [Elizabeth] saying to my wife, ‘The numbers on the court keep getting bigger and smaller.’

Friday, October 21, 2016 So then we went over and found the trainers, and talked to the trainers.”

She was shut down for the weekend.

After resting for a few weeks, Elizabeth went to the doctor and he cleared her to play. But after just a few minutes into practice she got dizzy and light headed.

She still had a concussion.

“Just [my family] entering the house felt like an earthquake,” Elizabeth said. “It was just so loud, and all they were doing was walking in the door.”

It took Elizabeth two months to recover from the concussion. But once she did she was back on the volleyball court.

She didn’t suffer any more concussions through high school. In fact, her and Suzanne were thriving.

The choice Suzanne never really had a reason she wore the No. 10. She wore it because she thought cool people wore it.

But in Feburary of 2014, she had to pick a new number.

The first number Dawn Sullivan read off of the list was No. 17.

“I kind of hemmed and hawed for a little bit,” Suzanne said. “I don’t know why, but then I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, 17. Yeah, duh. I’ll wear that number.’

“But when I chose it, I knew why.”

It was the one that meant the most.

The trauma Lauren Martin wore the No. 17 at University of Pennsylvania. As a junior she led the team in kills per set.

Elizabeth was forced to change her number from 17 to the No. 2.

She associated the No. 17 with words like, “strong” and “solid”.

“Those are characteristics she sees in herself,” Suzanne said. “That’s why she sees those things in that number.”

And when she got the No. 2 she associated that number with “second place” and “not quite good enough to be first”.

She lost confidence.

“I can see her making a correlation between that and some of the struggles she had,” Todd said. “You go from being one of the big dogs as a high school player, then go into college athletics starting out – it’s hard to be the big dog there and have a lot of success.

Then the concussions happened.

Elizabeth was still recovering from a concussion that she got in March of 2013 in the fall of 2013.

She was filling up water bottles when her trainter, Amy Gaber accidentally tapped Elizabeth’s forehead with her elbow. “[Amy] was such a fun, joking person all of the time, and I’ve never seen her so serious or so horrified in her entire life in the time that I’ve known her,” Elizabeth said.

About five minutes later Elizabeth felt dizzy. And the pressure in her head intensified.

“When I was in those very deep moments, I knew that God loved me.”

Elizabeth Horner Suzanne Horner’s sister

“Then everything got progressively worse,” Elizabeth said. “She saved my life. I was so determined to not quit that I would’ve continued on not quitting and would’ve probably – I can confidently say something worse would’ve happened.

“She definitely saved my life.”

On Oct. 7, 2013 Elizabeth and her family made the decision to leave school.

“I think there were some days where she slept 23 hours a day,” Todd said.

“It’s frustrating obviously as a parent,” he continued.

“You want to see your kids healthy and thriving. We kind of knew some things about concussions and recovery, but this was a little more intense, and a little more severe than what we had experienced when she was in middle school.”

When a person is concussed it can be hard for them to think through

things. So Elizabeth would make lists of things that are true or fact, and things she feels.

Todd was the one who instilled this habit into her early on in her life.

It was a skill Elizabeth called “life saving”.

“When you’re undergoing very, very intense depression and trauma and all of your thoughts and your emotions are swirling around and changing every five seconds. And they’re just complete raw emotions and it feels like you’re in the middle of the ocean during the worst storm that there has ever been.

“There is this profound darkness, where there can be so much going on – the silence can be so loud. It’s suffocating.”

She became audibly emotional.

“And when you’re in that place, things like suicide – they seem so easy,” she continued. “That’s the easy way out. It looks good and pleasant because that would end the torment. I can say that because I’ve been there and had those moments. I’m very happy to say I’ve never ever once wanted to commit suicide, but I’ve been to that place – call it ground zero. It’s pretty much ground zero of your soul. And at ground zero of yourself, if you don’t have any anchor, it can be so dark and so empty that putting an end to it would be bliss. That is what plays into knowing some things are true and not true, and being able to understand that you, as a person, do have the ability to choose which thoughts you apply to your life, or not.

“You have the choice to have a sound mind about everything, no matter how intense the situation is.

That’s a big deal.”

At ground zero Elizabeth knew of only two things that were true.

“When I was in those very deep moments, I knew that God loved me,” she said.

“I knew Jesus loved me. It was like physically being in his arms.

“I knew he was there because that was the only thing in that darkness that I was able to hold on to,” Elizabeth continued. “I realized I was so unconscious of so much, I asked myself, ‘What do you know, that

you know, that you know, right now?’ And I knew, I could tell, that I existed – I was a thing. Elizabeth was a thing. And everything else was so empty that I was here and that Got loved me.

Nothing else.

She couldn’t think through or catch on to anything else at the time.

“It was almost like this out of body experience,” she said. “Like I kind of knew I had this physical body, but kind of didn’t. It is to that extreme that he is there in the depths when you feel like everything is empty – he is the only thing that is real, even in that emptiness. I would say that Jesus is my anchor. Always.”

It was her family and faith that kept her alive.

Her sister Abigail forced her to wake up once a day and forced her to eat.

Elizabeth’s other sister Jacqueline was also concussed at the time. This often created a sense of knowing between the two.

They knew what each other were going through.

And when everyone was out of the house, it was Midnight, the family dog who kept her company.

“It was huge because she could just tell,” Elizabeth said. “Like, ‘Hey, you’re not alright, so I’m going to be here.’ And she would just insist on always being there.”

Her mom Heather was the one that took her to many of the doctor’s appointments and therapies.

They went to University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

Elizabeth would go through vestibular therapy there. This therapy worked for Elizabeth – but it was still a slow process.

She started going to the therapy a year and a half ago.

In total she was sidelined from life for three years.

During those three years a lot changed for Suzanne as well: She transferred schools, changed her number and suffered a concussion of her own. “[My concussion] was awful,” Suzanne said. “It was the beginning of the fall last year and when it happened I knew right away what it was. I remember just laying in my room, lights off, windows shut, it was completely black and eyes

closed.

“I just felt throbbing, and I remember thinking, ‘I don’t know how Elizabeth did this for so long. It’s been 24 hours and I can’t stand it.’”

But neither Elizabeth or Suzanne were going to let Elizabeth give up. “‘She can’t [play volleyball], and she wants to do it so bad, and I take it for granted. I’m going to go out and do it,’” Suzanne thought. “How me choosing [17] gave her tenacity and willingness to not just roll over with her concussion and roll over in life, but to grab hold of the opportunities that she has in front of her.”

Something as seemingly insignificant as Suzanne choosing the No. 17 really did spark something inside of Elizabeth.

“That was a really, really big deal,” Elizabeth said.

“She was honoring the me that I had been, and the me that we had been together. I was so far away from physically being that person, or mentally, or emotionally to be that person.”

The match Suzanne went on a tear against Iowa this year. She served a match-high seven straight points in the third set to seal the sweep.

It was the match she feels like she honored her sister’s No. 17 the most.

“That game, it’s always such a big game for us at Iowa State,” Suzanne said.

“I feel like I played well and I just had so much fun that day.”

As well she should’ve been. Her teammates had nothing but praise for her at the press conference after the game.

Outside hitter Jess Schaben had 17 kills that match.

She gave all the credit to No. 17 – Suzanne and her setting.

“This girl right here [gets the credit],” Schaben said after the match.

The pepper For the first time since Elizabeth’s concussion, the two were peppering in their backyard.

In the shadow of the pine trees.

“She’s still the best pepper partner ever,” Suzanne said.

IRHA postpones new dining plan bill

By Alison.Boysen iowastatedaily.com The Inter-Residence Hall Association convened Thursday night to discuss matters of two new bills about the new dining plan and the president’s power.

The first bill limited the president of IRHA’s veto power, giving him six days instead of 10 to make decisions on legislation. The bill was passed by a majority vote by IRHA. “Six days keeps it less ambiguous,” said Jacob Zirkelbach, senior in psychology and president of IRHA. The next bill, the dining resolution, was the topic of discussion for most of the meeting. The proposal includes two unlimited dining plans and two limited plans. For residence halls that do not require a meal plan, the new options would be offered, but the original five options would still be available.

Jacob Donahue, author of the dining resolution bill, believes the new meal

plan would stop students from worrying about the number of meals they have left. “[It’s] making sure students are getting what they’re paying for,” Donahue said.

Students with bronze meal plans would be grandfathered in for next year if desired, but only if a student had this meal plan for the fall 2016 semester, said Mohamed Ali, director of dining.

Another new change would be a scanner to scan the fingerprint of students using the blood vessels in their print to identify them at dining centers instead of swiping cards at dining halls.

If the plan is approved, Storms Dining Center would be renovated, along with Friley Windows, which is costing the university $9 million.

Also, meal bundles would be called “express meals.” Dining is looking to renovate a space near Kildee Hall to create another dining option for people who are near that area.

Ali also suggested that the plan would lengthen the hours the dining halls are open to make them more accessible to students.

Many universities in the United States already have a plan similar to this in place, and those universities have seen success. At the University of Northern Iowa, students have had a satisfactory experience with the new meal plan.

Research also suggests that many students lose a lot of meals.

“It’s to make the dining centers a lot more friendlier,” Ali said.

Many students are uncomfortable with the prospect of having to pay more for their meal plan, and IRHA members highlighted this fact during the discussion.

Samuel Freestone, sophomore in environmental science and a senator in Student Government, said it is healthier for students to eat smaller meals throughout the day instead of stuffing themselves to “get their money’s worth.”

IRHA decided to postpone the decision of passing the bill for two weeks until its next meeting. Although IRHA can pass the bill, which is not directly affecting whether Iowa State will adopt the new meal plan, the director of dining simply wants the support of students to help the bill progress.

The Student Government report said the Board of Regents indicated that it supported the 2 percent increase for instate tuition and 3 percent increase for out-of-state tuition.

International students also would have tuition increased by 3 percent and the additional $500 set in place this summer.

There is also a possibility of adding five new majors, which would increase tuition as well.

Some of the other topics discussed during the IRHA meeting were haunted houses authorized on campus, off-campus housing and the Board of Regents’ investigation of ISU President Steven Leath’s plane usage.

PROFESSORS p3 take the course, and the second time around, something clicked and not only did I ace it, I also fell in love with statistics,” Carriquiry said.

By August 1982, Carriquiry found herself at the University of Illinois studying under a professor in animal breeding; however, an opportunity to transfer to Iowa State arose.

This opportunity led to a Ph.D. in statistics and animal breeding, as well as a place to develop her career.

“I am now in my 26th year of teaching at ISU and hope to retire a Cyclone,” Carriquiry said.

Carriquiry has led an impressive career at Iowa State, becoming the first woman at the university to become full professor, as well as the first Latina woman to become a distinguished professor.

Her professional research in statistics starts from “realworld problems” and has focused on issues in human nutrition and health.

“Adequate intake of nutrients is essential to maintain health,” Carriquiry said. “So an important question is how to use daily food consumption data to estimate long-term nutrient intake.

This happens to be a difficult

problem from a statistical point of view.”

The distinguished professor said she has worked for years on developing methods to evaluate the nutrition levels of populations around the world and has endured many obstacles.

“When you are a loud Hispanic woman in a field that used to be dominated by men, you sometimes run into what feels like a brick wall,” Carriquiry said. “For once in my life, I was stunned and speechless. This was an unexpected and tremendous honor, and I am so tickled I can taste it.”

Carriquiry and Roth both said they are extremely grateful to their mentors, team members and family, who have all helped them along the way.

A total of 70 new members and nine international members were elected Monday into the National Academy of Medicine, an institution founded in 1970 under the National Academy of Sciences.

New members are selected annually by current members based on the accomplishments in a specific field of study, as well as the member’s eagerness to actively participate in the academy.
